Chapter 1 - The Old and The New
Chapter 1: The Old and The New
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Half a year had passed since she returned home to China. Summer went, autumn arrived, then came winter. All this time, the temperature difference in this prosperous coastal city of A was very clear. It was never like New Zend where she had studied. It was a ce warm as spring all the year around, fine and beautiful beyond words could ever describe
Dressed in an azure sweater and a pair of navy jeans, Shangguan Ning was sitting in a white Audi A4, driving at a steady pace.
Her skin was pure and white. She was tall and slender. Even the inest clothes clearly reflected the freshness and charisma of this woman.
The sky was blurred with dim moonlight, and the sea breeze brushed up her smooth, long hair through the half-opened car window. ir de Lune by ude Debussy echoed in her ears, making ones heart soften for some reason.
A couple was hugging below the hibernating magnolia tree. The chemistry between them was so strong that they became tightly tangled with each other, as if no one was around. And their dazzling love was so fierce that even people at a distance could sense the heat clearly.
Envious, jealous, regretful and pain.
Shangguang Nings heart was ripped, and the tears could not help but drip down along the cheeks,pletely out of her brains control.
She pulled out a piece of tissue paper in a fluster and wiped away her tears.
You promised never to think about him again! You promised not to linger like a fool. He doesnt love you, and is not worth it either. Forget about everything, and everything will pass in the end.
She sniffed, trying hard to calm herself down.
But someone was destined to oppose her, to bring trouble to her.
A man dressed in a pale green id shirt on the drivers seat was driving a ck Land Rover towards her. He was a handsome man with refined and elegant charisma. A girl d in a pink dress sat on the passengers seat. She had shoulder-long hair and looked gentle and beautiful.
Their silhouettes were in a happy conversation, and that moment stung Shangguan Nings eyes.
She had assumed that she could face that with a smile. But why did her heart ache so much at this moment that she felt like suffocating?
She wished never to run into them again in her life if that was possible because every time it happened, she would have to remind herself that she had been a silly girl!
Ning, you dont need to persist any more. Im grateful that you took care of me for so long, but I dont love you. I have always regarded you as a sister. I love Xue. She is a kind-hearted girl and you arent allowed to bully her. I will pay you back myself!
His voice echoed in her ears, shattering her heart totally.
What a ridiculous thing it was! They had been separated for just one summer holiday and he imed to have found his one true love when the school started again!
It had been four years, and it turned out that she had never been able to forget that. Shangguan Ning, you are so useless!
She clenched the steering wheel so tightly that her knuckles whitened.
She was just about to press the elerator, when the people opposite her noticed her first.
Two voices rose at the same time, blended with surprise and guilt.
Sister
Ning!
Shangguan Nings entire body became numb, but inside her heart it was roaring and twisting. She passed by with no expression on face, as if they had never existed.
Shangguan Rouxue, the girl in the Land Rover could not help but call out again, Sister!
But the white Audi drove away without turning back.
Shangguan Rongxues exquisite face was suddenly filled with tears.
Her pretty voice wasced with a remorseful, guilty tone. Zhuojun, my sister must still be mad at me. It was all my fault. I betrayed her. I shouldnt have...
Xie Zhuojuns heart ached as he saw Shangguan Rouxues saddened face, and his guilty feelings towards Shangguan Ning decreased tremendously.
He parked the car by the road, and grabbed Shangguan Rouxue into his arms.
Heforted her as he gently wiped away the tears on her face, It had nothing to do with you. I was the one who owed her. But I willpensate herter. Anyways, you are the one I have always wanted to marry.
At these words, Shangguan Rouxue felt quite moved.
She was about to say something when Xie Zhuojun asked in confusion, When did shee back to China?
Im not sure either. My sister has changed her phone number and she never replied to my e-mails. Mom and Daddy have been worried about her as well. I wonder if she has been living well all these years. She was totally alone over there, and no one could take care of her even when she got sick. She is such a stubborn woman, and just now she... Ah, it was all my fault, I shouldnt have... have fallen in love with you. What should I do, Zhuojun, I feel so bad... she said.
Xie Zhuojun never expected that one question of his could lead Shangguan Rouxue into the self-usation again. He felt that he had said something wrong, so he squeezed out a smile on his handsome face.
Heforted, Dont worry about her, lets talk about something cheerful.
Shangguan Rouxue tried to make herself look cheerful and answered him with a little nasal voice, Yeah, okay.
As Xie Zhuojun watched the girl in his arms trying to hold up her emotions so that he could be happy, he finally made up his mind inside.
Xue, lets go and order the dress tomorrow.
Huh? What dress? For yourpanys event?
No, the dress for our engagement party.
Shangguan Rouxue slightly raised her graceful face in surprise. She knewpletely well that she looked best from this angle.
Tears dangled in herrge eyes. She called out his name, moved, Zhuojun...
Her baby-voice seemed to be filled with deep affection, so that Xie Zhuojuns fluctuated emotions because of Shangguan Nings appearance vanished instantly.
He bent down his head and could not wait to ce his lips upon her slightly-pursed red lips. He started tenderly before going deeper and more passionate.
The two soon became tangled, stripping each others clothes. It was getting very warm in the car.
Shangguan Rouxues face and lips were dripping with lust. Her eyes were wandering and she whispered in a soft voice, Not here, Zhuojun. Lets go home, alright...
The oiled engine of the Land Rover started up instantly, heading off towards a certain direction like the wind.
And the girl named Shangguan Ning was no one but a passer-by.
Shangguan Ning drove at a high speed. She didnt know how long did it take before she revived from the grieving emotion.
She knew that she must have got quite pale without looking herself at the mirror. She was a scattered woman who had been trying hard to stay calm.
However, strangely enough, despite the suffocating feeling that drowned her inner heart like the sea, she did not shed a single tear any more. She had thought that she would have cried until her eyes got swollen like two peaches.
She sneered in a self-mocking way C had she been hurt so badly that she already got immune to that?
She parked her car by the road and closed her eyes out of exhaustion, leaning herself against the seat and forcing herself never to think about anything anymore.
A piece of catchy and happy music rang. Shangguan Ning opened her eyes and glimpsed at the cell phone. On the screen a Mr. Guo Shuai was disyed.
A jolt came to her C she just recalled of the appointment with someone tonight.
Oh no, she must bete. Guo Shuai was a very punctual man. He must be mad.
Shangguan Ning took a glimpse at the time. Their set time was 19:30 and now it was already 19:40. She had navigated towards somewhere else because of her unstable emotion.
It was a fifteen-minute drive from the ce she was, in to the western restaurant where they were supposed to meet.
She answered the phone, trying to keep her voice calm, Hey, Mr. Guo. Are you there yet?
A displeased male voice came from the cell phone. Ms. Shangguan. I have been waiting for you for thirteen minutes. Are you just too conceited toe in time on our second ever date?

Everyone has their own habits in life, and possessing a clear concept of time ought to be a merit.
Shangguan Ning herself did not like beingte either, and she took the me for this matter on this particr asion.
Therefore, she apologized sincerely, Im very, very sorry. I just ran into some issue. Im on the way there now. You can start without me.
Then please hurry up. I will wait for you. The voice on the other side of cell phone still sounded displeased.
Shangguan Ning felt weird after hanging up. It was hard to describe the bizarre feeling,
Were they on... a date?
Goosebumps spread over Shangguan Ning when she thought about this word.
They had just eaten dinner once, and Guo Shuai wanted to treat her back today. They were co-workers and could run into each other every single day. That made it difficult to turn him down.
She was a teacher at University of X after she returned to China. Both she and Guo Shuai were the teachers for freshmen students. She belonged to the Department of Foreign Languages whilst Guo Shuai belonged to the Department of Chinese Language.
They had run into one other on different asions and greeted each other with smiles. They had also exchanged a few words but had never gone further than that. Several days ago, they identally ended up eating a dinner together, and out of politeness, Shangguan Ning shared the bill, which Guo Shuai did not disagree with.
That was all. It was far from an actual date, wasnt it?
Yet conversations on cell phones did not work well. She expected to put forward a clearer exnation face-to-face on the spot.
Shangguan Ning drove at such a high speed that she used only ten minutes to finish the fifteen-minute drive. She finally arrived at the western restaurant.
She put on a ck woolen coat, grabbed her handbag and walked into the restaurant.
There were few guests at the restaurant. It was probably because the restaurant was new. It took her seconds before she found Guo Shuai, who was sitting at a seat by the window.
Mr. Guo Shuai was 32 years old, a graduate with a Doctors Degree from a second-rated domestic university. His skin was slightly tanned and he wore a pair of sses with golden frame. He did look cultured and educated like a teacher, with a height, couple of centimeters more than that of Shangguan Nings 168cm. He had a slightly bloated shape and an ordinary look. It seemed that he was quite far from what his parents had expected in his name C the handsomeness.
Shangguan Ning put on a pair of t-sole shoes on purpose today. She was aware of Gao Shuais feelings regarding height.
She walked to the table and sat down. She picked up a ss and sipped the lemon water before saying calmly, Im so sorry for beingte, Mr. Guo.
Actually, Guo Shuai had already spotted her the moment Shangguan Ning walked in, but he pretended that he had not seen her at all. At this moment, he gave a slight nod and replied with a nonchnt hmm.
Women were not to be spoiled, especially those like Shangguan Ning who used to live abroad, and who possessed both charisma and beauty, otherwise they were definitely going to rip the roof awayter in life
However, it was undeniable that Shangguan Ning was a rare beauty. Although she looked tired and wore no makeup, she was still so elegant and refined.
Guo Shuai could hardly get angry in front of such an exquisite face.
But he did not show much enthusiasm to Shangguan Ning either, because she did not seem to care so much about him at all.
Ms. Shangguan, we are both well-educated people, and you especially. You have been abroad before, but... oh yes, it was just to a tiny ce like New Zend, wasnt it? Do people in New Zend tend to be impolite ande to meetingste?
Shangguan Ning frowned. She had thought of him as someone kind and friendly. He could have been a little morally lofty, but after all he was a good teacher who was devoted to literature. Today, however, he acted more like a 20-year-old young cynic.
Ning, what are you frowning at? he asked.
Ning! Was he calling her by that now?
He had addressed her Ms. Shangguan a moment ago. How did he suddenly became such a close person to her? Goosebumps spread over Shangguan Nings white, tender arms.
I am a few years older than you, so I can teach you something. What women need most, is to be nursed with love. Dont set your standards too high. You arent a young girl and you are getting older and older, meaning that you are getting cheaper and cheaper. At the moment, you are lucky to marry someone so excellent like me, but as time goes by, you will have no choice but to marry the security guards at our university gate! Why didnt your parents tell you anything...
Before Guo Shuai finished his words, Shangguan Ning smashed down the ss on the table so loudly that the other guests turned their heads towards this direction.
She did not care about the strange look of others around her. She was trying hard not to spill the lemon water onto the man sitting opposite her.
She had already been in a sour mood. She had shown politeness towards Guo Shuai only because she felt guilty for beingte. But by this moment, it was clear that the man was picking on her. What was the point of not fighting back!
Mr. Guo, you didnt brush your teeth before leaving home today, did you? she asked.
Guo Shuai did not quite catch Shangguan Nings words, so he threw a re at her, meaning that he didnt understand her at all.
Shangguan Ning didnt wait for his reply before saying unceremoniously, Because your mouth stinks!
You...
I have not only been to New Zend. I have travelled to Great Britain, America, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and so on! Men from those countries are all gentle and friendly. Why do I keep running into these single hicks after I returned to China?
What do you mean by hicks? Who are you referring to here??
Shangguan Ning ignored Guo Shuai who had already gotten extremely angry.
She replied in a mocking tone, Mr. Guo, you really studied hard toe to this University being a vocational school student. What was your major? Could it have been the studies of excavators? Because you are very interested in digging pits and jumping into them yourself. If you want topliment me, just say so. No one would ever care or understand your roundabouts.
You...
No wonder Mr. Guo talks like a hick. You must have done a great deal of digging, so that even a Masters Degree or Doctors Degree cant help to hide up your hick characteristics. Dont feel less of others, I am notughing at your background, I am just looking down at your moral qualities.
I...
You think you are better than the guards at University of X? No, no, no. Those guards might not be as learned as you, but they are morally better than you in every single way. Did youe to University of X through a back-door passage? If not, wouldnt that be too much a risk for the school to allow an excavator student to teach the Chinesenguage?
As a matter of fact, Guo Shuai was indeed quite learned, and he hadnte in through back-door passage. Shangguan Ning was just trying to piss him off.
Guo Shuai was feeling more and more agitated. He wasnt sure if it was because he was trying hard to hold back or because he was too pissed.
He stood up abruptly, his face already twisted.
He lifted his chin and replied in a disdainful voice, Shangguan Ning, you will definitely pay for what you said today. Bah!
With these words, he took his things and stormed out.
Good... hes finally gone. The world was finally quiet.
The restaurant was decorated in a European style, with a ssical air going around. The music yed there was low and melodious. It was a wonderful ce for food.
Shangguan Ning removed her coat and gestured to the waitress. Take the order here, please.
The steak was tender and fresh, effusing out tempting scents. The pasta tasted smooth and delicious, whilst the vegetable sd turned out to be a great appetizer when served with Chinese style corn-pea porridge. Shangguan Ning, who was so hungry, felt very satisfied after consuming the dishes.
She had thrown away all the unpleasantness, and devoted herselfpletely to the wonderful food.
She drank half a ss of lemon water after eating. On the way to the counter, a short-hair girl in a light grey Prada blouse came to the seat in front of her.
Shangguan Ning got slightly surprised. Anan, what are you doing here?
Zhao Anan brushed away her short hair in a cool way whilst a bright smile hovered over her face. This is my restaurant. Any problem with the Boss inspecting the ce?

Zhao Anan was also a teacher from University of X. More specifically speaking, she was an associate professor at University of X. She worked at the same Department C Department of Foreign Languages, as Shangguan Ning. Anan was in charge of oral English education whilst Shangguan Ning taught the discipline of British and American Literature.
They had entered University of X on the same day and their birthdays were just one day apart. The two of them got on very well with each other. Everytime when one of them was forced to run an urgent errand, the other would help take over that persons lessons. The two of them hung out on weekends for shopping in the mall or training at the gym. As a result, their friendship developed rapidly.
However, they hade to a tacit agreement that private matters were never to be discussed between them. They agreed to help each other in troublesome situations and leave private space for each other at the same time.
Zhao Anan could be considered as Shangguan Nings best friend for the past four years.
The same went for Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan had a boyish personality. She was easy-going, careless and stayed fascinated by something for no more than three days. It came as a surprise to Ning that she had opened her own restaurant.
Keeping aside her surprise, Shangguan Ning was actually very happy for her good friend.
She smiled lightly at Anan and said, Its great that you opened this Victorian restaurant. Seems like that I would be able to save a good deal of food money in the future.
The overhead shining lightnded upon her undecorated face. Her smooth, ck long hair fell all over her back in a casual way and clearly reflected her pure white skin. Everything was perfect about her face and that bright smile simply blew Anans mind away.
What is it? Shangguan Ning asked as she noticed Anan staring at her.
She thought that she might have some rice stuck on the face. She pulled up some tissue papers from the table and tried to wipe the food away.
Anan let out a smile. You, Shangguan Beauty, your smile has bedazzled me! You better hold back that smile for important asions, otherwise people will be killed by your extreme beauty!
Shangguan Ning was aware that she was not ugly but she had never considered herself a beauty.
She had beenpared with Shangguan Rouxue since childhood and always remained the ugly duckling under the shadow of the white swan.
Oh, isnt this Xue? You are getting really pretty. You are definitely going to be a real beauty in the future! Eh... Ning, you are quite tall indeed, yes, very tall... haha...
Xue scored the first position again! You must have received many schrship by now. And Ning, oh yes, you have progressed by two steps. It is good too, but try learning from Xue and get into the top 10. It would be a shame if the elder sister lost to the younger, wouldnt it?
Hey, did you hear that? Shangguan Rouxue is in rtionship with Song Zixuan, the best-looking boy in the school. She is just so lucky. Song is handsome, excellent in studies and rich too. I do envy Xue...
News, biggest news! Shangguan Rouxues elder sister Shangguan Ning is engaged to a vegetative man. She must be interested in his money, even if it means being a living widow. What a shame for Shangguan Rouxue to have a sister like that. I feel so sorry for her...
Shangguan Ning! Who I, Xie Zhuojun, love the most is Shangguan Rouxue, not you. She is the girl I am destined to protect in this world. You should stop badgering me and behave like an elder sister is supposed to!
For some reason, the old stories just popped into her brain all of a sudden and the cruel words were still clear as crystal.
Anan noticed a change in Shangguan Nings expression, so she said immediately, What is it? Did I say something wrong?
Shangguan Ning brought herself back to Earth. She shook her head slightly, trying to wipe away the unpleasant memories from her brain.
She looked at Anans sunny face and lips which were shaped like a hook.
She replied in a soft voice, Of course not, Boss Zhao, you have great taste. Do remember topliment me every day. I will never get too full of that.
Anan burst intoughter as she saw Nings serious face. Haha, you are really thick-cheeked, arent you?
Anans emotion apparently affected Shangguan Ning, who could not help butugh alongside with her.
After a cheerful moment, Anan suddenly approached her and whispered in a mysterious tone, Seriously, Ning, you are my best friend, why not be my sister-inw? Benefits should always be kept for our own people, you know.
Shangguan Ning jerked back for a second. She understood that Anan must have seen what happened between her and Guo Shuai.
Therefore, Shangguan Ning waved that away immediately, You are always joking around. I wont talk to you any more if you continue to do so.
No way. I am only telling you this because you are so close to me. I wouldnt want others to know about him.
Anan, I know you mean well, but...
Anan was a stubborn woman.
She refused to hear what Shangguan Ning had to say and interrupted her by starting to talk, No buts. You have never met my brother before. As his little sister, I just cant help but brag about him. Ordinary girls are not suitable for him. He has an attractive charisma and is super good-looking. His EQ and IQ that are so high that the indices can exceed the current Guinness Record. His body shape is so perfect that women from eight to eighty years old would all be obsessed. Most importantly, he never fools around with anyone!
In Shangguan Nings opinion, Anan was praising her brother in an endlessly exaggerating way. It was a normal thing that a younger sister would worship her older brother. She could not say anything, so listened quietly.
...You know, he has attracted numerous girls since he was young, even boys! But he always exercises self-control and is never willing to speak with others. He has focussed upon nothing but studies. He has always been the straight-A student at school.
Exercises self-control ? He sounds like he is a man with autistic issues.
He is particr about his food. He doesnt eat food with green leaves, food with tough textures, food with bad looks...
Oh girl, please! He was not particr about food, he was critical about food.
If his dog bites somebody else, he would never me it for that. Instead, he would feed the dog better food, just to ensure that it can run faster and not be caught next time it bites someone. My brother is just so kind-hearted...
Kindhearted... didnt seem like the right word in this case.
For the first time in six months of knowing her, Shangguan Ning heard Anan, who was more tomboyish than womanly, speak so highly of a boy in such a fascinated tone.
Shangguan Ning could not help but shake her head.
Anan grasped her arm all of a sudden, Alright, its a deal then. My brother returned to Chinast month and he is currently avable at home all the time. It is Saturday tomorrow and we both are also free. So, you muste and meet him.
Well, I dont... think that is necessary. Your brother is so amazing... Im sure that many people would fight for him. I will skip getting into that mess.
Stop hesitating. You really have a bad judgement about people. Trust me, please. I wont hurt you in anyway.
Yes, Anan was totally right. She really had a bad judgement about people. She had thought that Xie Zhuojun would be her Mr. Destiny yet the result turned out to be the opposite. She had thought that Guo Shuai was a nice man, but the fact was that he totally wasnt...
But, Anans judgment was also... very suspicious.
She was about to say something, when Anan looked at her rather maliciously, What is it, my Beauty? You dont believe me? Or my brother? If you dont agree with this proposal, then you are not allowed to leave this sinister restaurant tonight.
Her voice was getting louder and louder, drawing the attention of a couple on the table closeby.
She didnt even care about scaring off her guests with her fierce words.
Shangguan Ning was worried that messier words woulde out of her mouth, so she immediately nodded in agreement, Okay, okay, okay! I will meet your brother. Dont scare your guests away. You just opened the restaurant.
Zhao Anan was finally happy again. Her face was filled up with excitement, Okay! Thats final then. Tomorrow night, 7 oclock. Come to my Victorian restaurant for a sell, oh, sorry, for a meeting!
Shangguan Ning felt a terrible hunch rising from her heart as she saw Anans eagerness.
Why did it feel as if she had just been sold away?

It was almost eleven oclock when she got home that night.
Shangguan Ning took a shower, dried her hair andy down in bed.
The moonlight sprinkled all over the room through the clean floor-to-ceiling window together with the variegated silhouettes of trees. It was quiet and empty, exactly like Shangguan Nings inner heart.
This apartment was a graduation present from her uncle. Although the area was just 100 m2, the market price of this apartment had already reached approximately six million yuan with scope for further potential growth because of its perfect location and luxurious decoration. The sea was right in front of the apartment and Mount Yn, a prestigiousndscape site, was situated at the back.
Uncles wife, namely her aunt, had quarreled with him numerous times because of this matter. Aunt had been sour and displeased and even her own cousin showed little fondness towards her.
Shangguan Nings mother had passed away when Ning was little and Uncle had always regarded her as his own daughter. Ning got as many things as her cousin did and sometimes even more. Her cousin disliked her a great deal because of that.
There was one time, when Uncle was worried that Nings stepmother might have treated her badly, so he brought her home to live under his own roof, instead. Aunt was happy on the surface, but privately, she simply detested her and called her the ck Sheep of the Family.
For that, Uncle had a huge row with Aunt and they had almost reached the stage where they were about to request for a divorce.
Young as Shangguan Ning was, she understood everything. She imed that she wasnt used to living somewhere other than her own home, and returned to her old, cold house instead.
It was better to live in a cold family than to ruin her Uncles family.
She had no intention of taking this apartment, but she had nowhere to go after she just returned to China. This apartment had provided a temporary ce for her to set in, for the time being.
Shangguan Ning was just thinking about the past, when the cell phone suddenly beeped. She had received a message.
My beauty, dont forget about the blind date with my brother tomorrow. Seven oclock! Oh, Im just too excited to fall asleep. What can I do?
Shangguan Ning could not help but smile. It was a date for her, but what was Zhao Anan so excited for anyway?
Her heavy mood was somehow lifted. Zhao Anan was always able to bring her unexpected joy. She must be her happiness star.
She thought for a moment and replied, I will certainly be there, but are you sure your brother will be there too?
Shangguan Ning had expected that Anans brother could be the one that made Anan withdraw somehow.
Dont worry, I have my special trick for him to show up at Victorian punctually tomorrow night!
Shangguan Ning shook her head. She was able to imagine the proud expression on Anans face.
Shangguan Ning clicked the close button for the curtain. The curtain closed down slowly, generating darkness inside the room. She shut her eyes, allowing herself to take a full break.
On the other hand, the excited, sleepless Anan dialed another number. She nned to y mischief upon one more person.
Hey, Brother. This is Anan. Im presenting a beauty to you tomorrow. Will text you the addresster.
I am not avable.
Sure. You dont have toe. But the two olddies at home arent as easy-going as Im. Theyll catch you no matter where you try to hide yourself.
It was a long silence on the other side of the cell phone. It seemed as if a difficult decision was being made.
Anan almost lost her patience. She was about to add something when a single word came out from the other side of the cell phone COkay.
Anan didnt care about her brothers coldness. Nor did she care about how much trouble had been brought out for him. She just made a call to her mother instantly after hanging up.
Mom, I set up a date for my brother... dont worry! She is a teacher from our school, a straight-A student returning from abroad. Absolutely beautiful, great personality and excellent charisma. My brother has already agreed to meet her... so... hmm... can I get 100,000 yuan more in allowance this month?
Early next morning, Shangguan Ning put on her NIKE sportswear and went out for her daily jogging. She had no idea that she had been sold for 100,000 yuan by her good friend on the previous night.
Thepound that she lived in, was located in the west side of the city, a bit on the outskirts actually. Yet the afforesting work was pretty well done, so that the air was fresh enough for a morning run.
The moment she came to the ground floor, she spotted a sliver Aston Martin car parked in front of the building, with five trucks and two hoists following behind. All the staff of thepound management were outside, bending over and busy handling something.
A graceful man in a ck suit was instructing everyone to move around things.
Shangguan Ning did not know much about cars. But she had a good knowledge about Aston Martin which was a luxurious sports car, rarely seen in public. She knew about it only because it was Xie Zhuojuns dream to own a car like this one.
However, one Aston Martin car costed tens of millions of yuan. Xie Zhuojun was only a student back then and had not taken over his familys business. So his parents didnt approve of his request of buying such an expensive car. When he finally took over the business, he found out that his family was not as extravagant as he had imagined. Therefore, Aston Martin cars still remained a fantasy for him.
Seemed that someone was moving in, someone with an impressive economic background.
But, the things that could fill up five trucks could not possibly fit in these apartments. There were only two tall buildings in thepound and the biggest apartment was no more than 400 m2.
Or maybe these were things of several people?
Shangguan Ning was confused. But she wasnt a nosy person, so whoever that was moving in, wouldnt be her concern. She was moving away soon, anyway.
The man in suit seemed to have sensed that someone close-by was watching, so he turned around and glimpsed at Shangguan Ning. The man smiled at her with a slight nod C he was saying hello.
The man looked young. He was probably 24 or 25 years old. His skin was tanned, and his teeth were quite white. Tall and strong, he sported a well trimmed hairstyle and presented a seemingly good natured smile. All of that broughtfort to whomsoever was around.
Seeing that the man was polite, Shangguan Ning smiled and nodded at him as well before walking out of thepound and starting her jog along the seaside.
The ce was already empty when she returned home. What incredible efficiency!
Later in the morning, Shangguan Ning drove to the supermarket where she bought some daily necessities and half-ready food packages like frozen dumplings. She was not a chef and she almost never cooked. In the afternoon, she bent over her desk preparing for the lessons. Evening touched down unexpectedly fast.
She showered and changed into a milky white dress, with a dark cyan coat over it. Her silk like ck hair were spread over her shoulders in a casual way.
Shangguan Ning set off half an hour ahead of time. She had learnt her lesson from the previous date, where she had arrivedte.
Zhao Anan called her the moment Shangguan Ning left home.
My beauty, are you ready yet?
Yes, Im already on the way.
Zhao Anan gave out a clear sound of relief on the other side of the cell phone.
She said happily, Okay, thats great!
Then Anan whispered in a stumbling tone, Well, hmm, my brother is indeed a nice man. An extremely rare man, except that... hmm... he may seem a little cold towards people whom he is not familiar with. But dont worry. You can melt him with your heat!
Shangguan Ning automatically ignored the first and thest sentence. She was relishing the middle sentence attentively.
It was the first time for her to hear Anan talking about her brothers w. That wouldnt havee easily.
In that case, her brother must be someone who tended to be extremely, unusually cold to people.
It wasnt a big deal. Coldness was anyhow a good thing, because in this way, she wouldnt owe Anan anything if neither the brother nor she liked each other.
She cherished Anan as a friend a lot. She hoped that their friendship couldst forever.
It didnt take Shangguan Ning long to arrive at Victorian. She immediately noticed that very same silver Aston Martin was standing right at the door of the restaurant.

Chapter 5: The Perfect Man
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Was that the same car which had been down at her building earlier today?
Very few people drove Aston Martin in A City, so she couldnt have got it wrong. But her sight had been too busy lingering upon the trucks and the hoists to pay attention to the cars number. It was 12345, as she noticed it now.
So that man was here for dinner too. He might be Anans friend.
Shangguan Ning put on the coat, grabbed her handbag and walked into Victorian.
It was dinner time and many people were already seated at various tables in the restaurant. She nced around but failed to find the man that she had run into that morning.
Anan had been waiting for Shangguan Ning since ages. As soon as she entered the door, Anan rushed up to her directly. Anans sudden enthusiasm made Shangguan Ning ufortable. She started to suspect that her phrase for a sell in yesterdays conversation might not have been a slip of tongue after all.
My brother has just arrived. He is waiting at the elegant room named Romantic. Hurry up! Oh, he doesnt know that Im the owner of this restaurant, so be careful not to spill anything about it in the conversation, ok? Hey, I named the elegant room well, didnt I?
She had changed too many topics within too short a time. Shangguan Ning couldnt help butugh out.
She teased her and said, Ordinary people give ordinary names.
Anan put her hands on the hips and threw her a re. She looked as if being on the edge of losing her temper. Startled, Shangguan Ning sprinted up to the second floor.
Zhao Anan gave out a relief seeing Shangguan Ning going upstairs, but inside her heart, she did feel a bit guilty.
Unfortunately, this was the only way out. She had spent all of her savings on this western restaurant. Her monthly allowance was only 100,000 yuan whilst her monthly sry, as a teacher was way too little. She had no other option but toe up with such a terrible idea. Her mother had told her once that if she could introduce a reliable girlfriend to her brother, she would receive double times of her current monthly allowance.
That was too huge a temptation to reject, so she was forced to sacrifice her best friend.
However, if this beauty could really conquer her brother, everyone in the family, be it young or old would queue up to thank her for that. Her brother was already 32 years old and showed no sign of finding a girlfriend. That had driven everyone in the family crazy!
Besides, the brother was excellent and good-looking. The beauty not only lost nothing, but also gained much at the same time.
It was a win-win situation. Oh man, she was truly amazed by her own cleverness.
Shangguan Ning walked up to the second floor and arrived at the elegant room named Romantic. She pushed the door open.
On the red wine colored chair of European ssical style, there was a man in a grey suit. He was on the phone, but looked up as he heard the sound of door opening.
He had a cold look and his thin lips were slightlypressed. His eyes were sharp and distant. The mans entire persona seemed to emit a freezing distant air.
Yet none of these was able to cover his radiance. He had a pair of deep brown coloured eyes, a long bridged nose, two lips with perfect silhouettes and a well sculpted face. He was handsome, beyond words could describe. Even the popr male TV stars would pale standing next to him.
His suit was apparently tailor-made, so fitted that his incredible body figure was perfectly outlined. The suit itself looked like it was made out of fine material and seemed to have received excellent workmanship, reflecting a royal air. He looked respectable and elegant.
He possessed a mysteriously elegant charisma despite the coldness, one that was able to draw people inside without efforts.
Shangguan Ning was slightly stunned.
Truly, Zhao Anan hadnt exaggerated. Her brother was indeed the man that could conquer any female animals aged from eight to eighty.
But Shangguan Ning was able to bring herself back to Earth quickly.
She was immune to handsome men.
Xie Zhuojun was a genuinely good-looking man. He used to be the hot topic for discussion on campus too. That was why Shangguan Rouxue had spared no efforts to grab him away from her.
She was watching him as he was surveying her at the same time.
Jing Yichen came to this blind date, only because his sister had threatened him.
This woman ought to be Shangguan Ning, the beauty his sister had spoken about.
Dressed in a milky white dress, Shangguan Ning wore long, ck hair and no makeup. She looked elegant and fresh and had a pair of really expressive eyes. She seemed to possess an air of a learned woman, one that somehow made peoplefortable. She must be an extremely well-behaved girl. He gauged it all at the first nce itself.
Most importantly, she didnt smell of any perfume, but emitted a scent so light and fragrant.
Jing Yichens eyes showed a bit of surprise. Good, it wouldnt be a bad date today.
He hung up the phone and stood up like a gentleman. He greeted her politely, Nice to meet you, Ms. Shangguan.
Distant as the tone sounded, the voice was low and melodious enough to beparable with the most heart striking movement in the whole world.
For some reason, Shangguan Nings heart skipped a beat, but that feeling vanished instantly.
She didnt pay much attention to it. Instead, she smiled slightly, out of politeness and replied, Nice to meet you, Mr. Zhao.
Jing Yichen was slightly startled, but soon he realized that Shangguan Ning might not be aware that Anan and he were cousins. She must have assumed that he was her real brother.
Sit down, please, he replied in a gentle tone, without exining anything.
People might feel that Jing Yichen was cold and distant, yet Shangguan Ning didnt feel ufortable. Instead, she somehow felt free in this situation.
She hung her coat and handbag onto the hanger and came to the luxurious chair to sit. Then, she began to drink the warm lemon water.
One after another emails arrived at Jing Yichens cell phone. He nced at them and realized that all of these were errands which he had to handle the next day. So he clicked and read them one by one.
Someone knocked the door and the waitress came in. She quit instantly after the two had ordered.
In the elegant room, there were candles arranged by Anan that were burning quietly and a cluster of white orchids gave out the usual sense of coolness.
For a moment, neither of them said anything.
Shangguan Ning looked out of the window. Her mind was gradually drifting away.
She had a terrible, messy past. But now everything was heading towards a proper direction. From this day on, she was going to live a better life and stay away from the people and matters that brought her agony.
Watch out!
The low, nice voice pulled her back from the reverie and what followed was a moment of fierce pain on her hand.
She had somehow touched the candle and wax dropped upon the back of her tender hand, causing a red swollen patch there.
She could not help but give out a cry, trying to withdraw her hand in the panic.
Yet another hand was faster. It had already gotten hold of her hand, ced a white silk handkerchief upon it and started to peel away the wax drops from there.
His hands were broad and warm, with clear knuckles and slim, long fingers. They looked very nice. They seemed to possess a kind of beauty that showcased the special power of men.
Shangguan Ning was not quite used to such intimate contact. It was the first time for her hands to be held by such a man, in such a way.
She was about to pull back her hand when Jing Yichen said in a low voice, Dont move. It is getting redder. We need to put some ice on it.
As he spoke, he wrapped some ice cubes from the red wine ice bucket into his handkerchief and gently put the entire thing upon the back of her hand. His touch was impersonal and his attention was fully focussed on her hand.
Shangguan Ning looked up and stole a nce at the handsome face. It still looked cold and distant, yet what she felt was warmth.
She was trying hard to press down the bizarre feeling inside her heart and calm herself down. Luckily, the pain on the hand and the feeling of coolness helped to distract her enormously.
Ten minutester, Jing Yichen moved away the ice cubes.
Although the spot on the back of her hand was still red, the pain had been reducedrgely.
Shangguan Ning thanked him sincerely, Thank you.
Jing Yichen nodded slightly, No worries. Just be careful next time.
It was just a few words that he said, but Shangguan Ning sensed some changes in them. He seemed to be colder than he had been a while ago .

Chapter 6: It Is Snowing

Jing Yichen became much more distant than he had been a while ago.
Because he had a feeling that he was behaving a bit different from his usual self.
That was not a good sign at all.
He couldnt help but nce at Shangguan Ning in a careful way.
She was tall and slim. Her skin was pure and white. Everything was right about her face and she behaved gracefully. But that was all.
He had seen way too many beautiful girls. The models and stars were not only beautiful, but also quite skilled at keeping fit. They wore proper makeup and expensive, glorious clothes. They were simply Gods chosen ones. Shangguan Ning surpassed them just by being natural.
That was nothing special. He was not a young man who had juste out of his thatched cottage.
Jing Yichen kept telling himself that.
He talked no more, but kept receiving and sending emails, answering phone calls and replying to messages.
Actually, Jing Yichen was not as free as Zhao Anan had imed, even though he had just returned to China. He had be so busy with the enterprise that he was about to take over. He was not pretending to be tied up in business matters at this moment, either.
Jing Yichen had approved of this date invitation only because Zhao Anan threatened him.
If he had disagreed, the two olddies, namely his grandma and grandmother, would surelybine forces and corner him at home. They would nag him constantly, collect different types of girls and push them onto his side.
Jing Yichen had been too badgered by that. So he had asked Anan to shield him every time. As long as Anan showed up, the two olddies as well as those pushy girls would withdraw in disappointment.
As long as Anans requests werent too over the top, he would satisfy them with his ability. She was the person he needed help from.
Shangguan Ning was the kind of girl who would treat the friendly ones with double enthusiasm and who would refuse to offer a smiling face if the other party was being cold.
When she noticed a change in Jing Yichens attitude, she decided to take the incident as something that had never happened. She had expressed her gratitude already and it was all in the past now.
Awkward as the air was, food should not be ignored. So when the good-looking waiter presented the medium-well done steak that smelled wonderful, Shangguan Ning didnt wait even for a second to have a taste of it.
Jing Yichen, seated opposite her, couldnt help but raise his refined eyebrows.
He was fully aware that he was pretty good at causing awkward atmosphere and almost no one would have any appetite in this kind of scenario. Besides, meeting with strangers for the first time would normally cause difort.
But it seemed that Shangguan Ning didnt have that problem at all. She was eating fast but in an elegant manner. It seemed as if she only had eyes for the delicious dish.
Could the steak be so tasty? Jing Yichen got a bit confused.
He took up the knife and fork and fiddled with the steak on the te. It was a piece of imported meat, tender in texture, well prepared.
Yet far away from the best steak.
Zhao Anan had assumed that Jing Yichen wouldnt know of the fact that she owned the restaurant, yet such a tiny matter couldnt escape Jing Yichens awareness.
Jing Yichen understood his own cousin more than anyone else. She was a girl with ephemeral passion for everything. Also, she was careless and inattentive. Therefore, a steak done to this level should already be considered as a sess because he had never had high expectation from this restaurant. After all, it was the chefs achievement, not Zhao Anans.
He had ordered a set of top sirloin steak and a set of warm water shrimp. The coincidence was that Shangguan Ning had ordered exactly the same thing.
While they were ordering, both of them had only pointed with their fingers at the menus which they held in their hands. None of them had said anything.
Or maybe, there were too few choices for either of them to pick from, at this stage in this newly opened restaurant. So they ended up having the same dishes.
Shangguan Nings passion towards food somehow brought out Jing Yichens good appetite. In fact, he felt a little dissatisfied when he finished the food.
That was such an incredible thing for a person like him, who was extremely particr about food.
Or maybe it was because of the delicious food that filled up his stomach, Jing Yichen felt that his mood was lifted up.
Jing Yichen noticed that Shangguan Ning had finished the gift cocktail. He asked in a gentle yet distant tone, Where do you live, Ms. Shangguan? I can give you a lift home.
She was his cousins colleague and it wasnt a good idea to let her go home alone, otherwise he would have to hearints the next day.
Shangguan Ning checked her watch and saw that it was only 8:15. She was happy that the dinner had finished so early.
Thank you. There is no need. I drove here myself. A tiny ss of cocktail wouldnt make much of a difference. Her voice was soft and gentle, showing equal level of politeness and distance.
As they two walked out of the elegant room, Zhao Anan was nowhere to be seen.
That was good. Embarrassment had been avoided.
They didnt feel embarrassed facing each other, but would have been if Zhao Anan had been there.
That was a strange thought, yet neither of them dwelled on it.
As they walked out of the restaurant, cold wind sted in, bringing numerous snowkes to them.
Wrapped in her coat, Shangguan Ning stretched out one hand to catch the snowkes. There was surprised joy in her voice. Oh, it is snowing!
Jing Yichen turned around to look at her.
The cold wind had left pink patches on her exquisite, snow white face, yet her joy wasing from inside her heart. She didnt seem to care about the red scar caused by wax drops on the back of her hand as well.
Jing Yichen was slightly moved. He asked calmly, You like snow?
Shangguan Ning turned around and noticed a handsome Jing Yichen standing straight in the floating snow. His long eyshes cast a small area of shadow upon his face. He looked like a prince from the fairy tales, a fantasy.
She couldnt help but whisper, What does a man like you do, being so good-looking...
The flying snow blended with the wind and scattered her voice.
Not having heard her clearly, Jing Yichen couldnt help but ask, What?
That made Shangguan Ning a bit diffident, so she immediately showed a smile, trying to cover herself up. Nothing! I just like snow!
Jing Yichen shut his eyes, trying to make the image of her bright smile fade away, before he replied quietly, Okay.
Shangguan Ning thought that this man in front of her had a fickle temper. His nasal okay was just like ice thrown upon peoples heart. The day was already too freezing for that, right?
What a waste of the handsome face!
Even so, Shangguan Ning waved him goodbye politely before getting into her car and driving away. She cared about her friend Zhao Anans reputation, after all.
Jing Yichen didnt move as he saw the white Audio fading out of his sight.
The hair on his shoulder was already covered with ayer of snow. The light of the restaurantnded upon his back, casting a long shadow, causing a feeling of loneliness and bleakness somehow.
He seemed to be the only man left on thisnd of white patches.
Sometimeter, a humble voice came from behind his back. Master, it is time to go home. It is freezing outside.
Jing Yichen sighed with relief, turned around neatly and strode towards the silver Aston Martin.
Tiger followed up instantly, pulled open the door in a proficient manner and turned around to take the driving seat after Master was well seated. The engine was started and they drove away quickly.
The car entered Compound Landscape and parked at the underground parking lot in thepound.
Jing Yichen stepped out of the car and walked towards the elevator. Tiger followed tightly behind.
All of a sudden, a white Audi A4 drew his attention. He took a nce at the car te, paused for a second and then strode out.
Chapter 7 - Some People Are Showing off
Chapter 7: Some People Are Showing off

The snow thatsted the whole night, had covered the entirepound with whiteness.
Shangguan Ning was amazed at the splendid scene when she pulled open the curtain. She quickly washed up, changed into a green sportswear and went out for a run.
It creaked when her feet stepped upon the thick snow.
Shangguan Ning, who was normally calm and steady, turned into a child at that moment. She delightedly trudged upon the snow, showing no sign of exhaustion. Sheughed happily as she saw the rows of footprints she had left in the snow.
Thin icicles were hanging down from the trees. She pulled one down and watched it melting inside her palm. Then she walked out of thepound in slow steps.
Shangguan Ning, who was in thendscape, had no idea that she herself had be thendscape for someone else.
On the top floor of a tall building in Landscape Compound, Jing Yichen, who was casually dressed and holding a cup of hot coffee in his hand, was quietly watching this green spot roaming around in the vast whiteness.
Apparently, she was out for a morning run wearing that outfit. But this kind of weather wasnt suitable for any running exercise.
He didnt understand why she fancied snow so much. Snow was a cold thing with no warmth at all.
But what he didnt understand either, was why his mood had somehow lifted up.
Tiger had just returned with breakfast when he saw a slight rise in Masters mouths corner. The angle was so tiny that it could hardly be seen. Yet for Tiger, who had been by Masters side for so long, any subtle changes could directly be noticed.
He had no idea why Masters mood was lifted up. But that should be a good thing anyway, because Master didnt pick on the breakfast today.
Master had always been particr about food, even when the breakfast was prepared by his special cook. Since they moved here just yesterday, the cook had not managed to follow them. Thats why they ended up eating breakfast bought from outside.
Tiger had thought that buying breakfast would have been a futile act today, but unexpectedly, Master ate it all up!
Who was the God that came and saved us? He wished that the God was able toe every day so that he could have a much easier life.
Having finished breakfast, Jing Yichen went out with Tiger. Weekends were not a holiday for him.
That was why he failed to see a messy Shangguan Ning on her way back. Her well-braided pigtail had fallen apart. Apparently, she had fallen several times.
She massaged her bruised knees as she entered the elevator.
She lived on the sixth floor and usually would take the stairs as exercise. But she fell twice today, causing a lot of pain on her knees. So elevator was the best choice at this stage.
The elevator rang as it came to the sixth floor. As the door opened, the two most undesirable figures rushed into her sight, stinging her eyes.
Sister! came a gentle and surprised voice, as if the owner had been longing so much for her.
The other figure belonged to a man who had been inside her heart for a long time. But that figure was standing next to another woman, showing endless fondness and care.
Shangguan Nings body stiffened. It felt as if tons of load had been put upon her feet. The indescribable bitterness started to spread inside her and even the pain on her knees was nothingpared to that in her heart.
Whats wrong, Ning? Did you fall? Xie Zhuojun couldnt help but ask as he saw the mess Shangguan Ning was in. He was frowning, showing little care that hardly could be noticed.
Shangguan Rouxue seemed to notice Shangguan Nings messy hairstyle and the mixture of y and snow upon her clothes at that moment. She let out a low cry. Sister, howe you are in such a mess! Are you feeling unwell?
Shangguan Ning looked so transparently pale. It seemed as if she had been stricken by serious sickness.
She walked out of the elevator with a stiffened body. She felt cold in heart but she sneered inside. She was unwell all over whenever these two were around.
Her kind-hearted sister still asked the question, even though she understood everything clearly.
Shangguan Rouxue was dressed in a slender yellow outfit from the newest Burberry set. She had a Herms handbag in hand that costed as much as her Audi A4 car. Her hair was in a well-trimmed wave style hanging down from the back of her head. She wore elegant yet exquisite makeup whilst the sweet scent of Gi perfume floated out of her body.
Compared to her, this messy Shangguan Ning was simply like a tramp.
But it seemed that Shangguan Rouxue didnt find her dirty. Instead, she looked concerned and worried. She then stretched out her hand, trying to feel her forehead.
Without thinking, Shangguan Ning raised her hand and pped that tender hand. It was a respondent conditioning for her, as this beautiful hand had hurt her too many times.
It seemed that Shangguan Rouxue didnt expect the pping. She cried out in pain and covered her hand, with tears instantly filling up her eyes. She sounded tolerant and wronged as she said, Sister, you must still be mad at me. If... if you are so sad, I will let you beat me. As long as you can be happy, Im willing for that. Come, I wont hide.
At these words, shepressed her lips tightly, gathered her entire body up as if being ready for a punishment at any moment.
Xie Zhuojun took up Shangguan Rouxues hand. He looked rather heartbroken when he saw a red patch appearing on the tender back of her hand.
He couldnt help but say angrily, Thats enough, Shangguan Ning! You are the elder sister! Dont you know how to behave like one? Xue, are you alright? Does it hurt?
Im fine, Zhuojun. It doesnt hurt at all. Sister was just... just careless.
Xue, you dont need to back her up. I saw everything! She couldnt have been this careless for pping so loudly! It must be hurting a lot now!
Shangguan Nings face had turned pale. She said nothing as she watched these two people, who had hurt her the deepest, putting on a loving show whilst ming her for her evilness.
In the past she didnt wait to exin herself every time such a thing happened. The exnation would only worsen the entire matter. What happenedter was always that they two left together hand in hand, leaving her behind to shed tears alone.
At this moment, she felt as if being crushed by a hill, but she managed to control the tears.
She didnt dwell upon the two of them. She acted as if she had never seen them and walked past them.
Shangguan Ning! Xie Zhuojun yelled at her as he saw her ignoring them. Arent you going to apologize to Xue?!
Apologize to Xue?
Shangguan Ning finally turned around and threw him a look.
Her eyes looked too hollow, face too pale. Xie Zhuojuns heart skipped a beat, not daring to look directly at that crystal clear pair of eyes.
However, Shangguan Rouxue was holding tightly onto his arms at this moment, fragile like the most delicate flower dangling in the blizzard, making him feel extremely sympathetic.
As he got a bit stronger in his heart, he spoke again firmly, Ning, Xue might have done something wrong back then, but she has paid you back during the past four years. She has been living in self-usation and guilt since then. She has suffered as much as you did. Be satisfied with that. Besides, it was I who betrayed you. It had nothing to do with Xue. It was I who started to pursue her first. You mustnt hurt Xue any longer. She is innocent. You are getting more and more disgusting as you continue to do so.
A st of cold sorrow attacked Shangguan Nings heart. She had once given him her everything and cared for him without caring about anything else. The only thing she received after all of that was nothing more than this phrase C more disgusting.

Chapter 8: It Was a Sad History

Seven years ago, Shangguan Ning and Xie Zhuojun had been in car idents at the same time. She was lucky to just escape with surface wounds, whilst Xie Zhuojun fell into a deep, longa. He was in a vegetative state. The doctor dered that he would never wake up ever again.
When Family Xie realised that even the most state-off-the-art medicinal treatment couldnt wake him up, they went around asking for blessing from Gods and Buddha. It was then that they received an instruction from an expert. He imed that as long as a woman with good fate and ability to bring fortune to her husband, was given to him, Xie Zhuojun would be able to wake up with the blessings of that very woman.
Shangguan Ning happened to cater to all those conditions. She had been born well, had a good fate and possessed the ability of bringing fortune to her husband.
Shangguan Ning didnt believe in these things but she seemed to be the only light in thisplete darkness for Xies parents.
At that time, her father, Shangguan Zheng was sparing no efforts to move to the position of Deputy Mayor of A City from that of General Secretary. Family Xie happened to be considered as a great influencer in this scenario. Therefore, the two families made a deal that could benefit both sides. Family Xie helped Shangguan Zheng to take over the position of Deputy Mayor whilst Shangguan Ning married Xie Zhuojun in return.
Family Shangguan and Family Xie had always been on friendly terms with each other. Shangguan Ning had gotten to know Xie Zhuojun ages ago. They had even attended the same high school and university. Xie Zhuojun was two grades older than she and constantly had different girlfriends around him. She hadnt even exchanged many words with him, let alone being friends or in love with him. In this moment, Xie Zhuojun had be a vegetative man and she certainly had no intention of sharing her life with such a man. Therefore, she started to fight against this decision by going on a hunger strike.
Her maternal uncle objected to this matter the moment he got to know about it. He confronted Shangguan Zheng and they almost got into a fight. But even that didnt make Shangguan Zheng change his mind.
Her unclespany happened to fall into a tremendous debt crisis at that very moment. Shangguan Zheng told Shangguan Ning that her unclespany was in trouble because of Family Xie and if she still objected to the engagement, he would be bankrupt.
Shangguan Ning protested no longer. She did whatever her father told her to do.
Two monthster, Shangguan Zheng became Deputy Mayor as he had wished, whilst the 19 year old Shangguan Ning became engaged with Xie Zhuojun, who was ina.
For some reason, this news leaked out and rumors started to go around the campus. She became the hot topic of gossip.
She didnt care about the rumors at all. Instead, she started to take great care of the bed-ridden, sick Xie Zhuojun.
She may not able to change her rtionship with Xie Zhuojun, but she might be able to help Xie Zhuojun as a person.
Many vegetative men coulde back to life and she believed that Xie Zhuojun could do that too.
Starting from that day, she began to look after him. She kept himpany, day and night. Although much personal and professional work was done by nurses and assistants, yet Shangguan Ning visited Xie Zhuojun every day at the hospital to chat with him. When the assistants were massaging his hands and feet, she would tell him the interesting news she had heard that day.
After seven hundred days and nights of her continuous effort, care and conversations, a miracle finally happened.
Xie Zhuojun woke up.
Xie Zhuojuns mother Wang Lu was extremely grateful to her. She hugged her tightly. Between tears andughter, she told Ning that she was her sons destined woman and if her son ever treated her badly in the future, she would definitely break his legs.
Xie Zhuojun recovered at an amazing speed after he woke up. He swore to God that he was going to treat her well, after knowing that Shangguan Ning had been taking care of him and that the two of them were engaged.
Shangguan Ning was the happiest person around. She was sure that her future would be full of happy prospects.
Xie Zhuojun was a handsome, strong man, and was gentle and caring towards her. Besides, his parents also treated her well. They had epted her as their daughter-inw long time ago. Within no time, Shangguan Ning had poured all of her love into Xie Zhuojun. Everything he did and said pulled at her heartstrings.
Although the two of them didnt get very close to each other in everyday life, Shangguan Ning already regarded him as her fianc. After he woke up, she put his matters to the most important position in her life.
However, everything changed after one summer.
It happened so suddenly that Shangguan Ning was caught off bnce.
Her stepsister, the lovely Shangguan Rouxue slept with her fianc!
The heaven seemed to crash down directly upon her when she heard the news.
The most horrible thing was that they hardly bothered to hide their affection. They kneeled down in front of her, hand in hand and begged for her approval.
Shangguan Ning felt as if a knife were ripping her heart apart.
The earlier vow had turned out to be nothing more than a joke. She was the only person who had taken it as a serious matter.
Dazed, she could still hear Xie Zhuojuns babbling. ...Xue has always regarded you as her closest sister and puts you before everything. She has been trying not to displease you on all asions. Do not treat her like this, if you are a woman with conscience!
Present Day
She is just concerned about you. Why did you beat her like that? I will be the one who repays what I owed you. It has totally been my fault. But I cant help it if I dont love you. You cant force people to love, can you? I always regarded you as my younger sister. Dont persist any more. Cant you forget about me and give us your blessings?
If Shangguan Ning had a knife in her hand at this moment, she was certain that she would have spared no efforts to stab this man in front of her.
Shangguan Rouxue was such a shameless woman who had lured her sisters husband to her bed.
She had never considered Ning as her elder sister. That girl was exactly like her mother, who ruined other peoples family. They were both terrible people.
To give them her blessings?
Sorry, but anyone who was normal would not be able to do that. She had already been merciful enough to not tear them apart.
Get out of this building with your sweetheart, now. My mother only had me. I dont have any shameless sister like you. Shangguan Ning was trying hard topress her pain as she spoke calmly. Yet her dry, hoarse voice clearly exposed her emotions.
Sister, it was my fault. Please forgive me. Please! I really love Zhuojun. I didnt do that on purpose... Shangguan Rouxue spoke in a rushed way.
Her tears dripped down her face. She was like a watery lotus flower that softened peoples heart.
Shangguan Ning wasnt moved at all. She was long used to this expression.
But Xie Zhuojun standing besides her was already heartbroken. He grabbed Shangguan Rouxue into his arms instantly.
The blue veins stood out on his forehead. Xue! You dont need to beg her. She is simply hard hearted. I would never fall in love with anyone like her. Shangguan Ning, you are not allowed to bully Xue or badger me any more in the future. Behave yourself!
Shangguan Ning gave him a freezing look and sneered, When did I badger you, Xie Zhuojun? I never made a call or asked to meet you after I returned to China. Isnt it you who came to my door today? You are an excellent detective for finding out my home address so fast. Im already being kind by not calling the police, seeing you two put on a love show at my door.
Xie Zhuojun was startled for a moment. He looked down at Shangguan Rouxue in his arms. Xue was the one who found her home address. But Xue wasnt a girl like that. She was the kindest girl in the entire world.
More tears rolled down Shangguan Rouxues eyes. She bit her lips, as if she had been wronged. Sister, I miss you so much. I have been looking for you everywhere. Daddy and Mommy are worried about you. Pleasee home. Please!

Thats what Shangguan Rouxue was like. She was an excellent actress with iparable gift of words. It was a pity that she wasnt actually an acting star.
She always had a way to shift others attention so that all issues could be thrown at Ning instead.
A gust of chill and tiredness rose inside Shangguan Nings heart. Four years had passed and she had already decided to let them go. So why were they still badgering her?
At that moment, she had no interest in saying another word. No matter what she said, Xie Zhuojun would assume that she was being jealous of Xue or trying to set her up into some evil trap.
She turned around and walked towards her door slowly. She was feeling exhausted inside. Stiffly, she took out the key, opened the door and walked in, shutting the two of them as well as her past behind.
As Xie Zhuojun watched Shangguan Ning with her back straight, disappear, he suddenly felt that he seemed to be missing something somewhere.
At that very moment, Shangguan Rouxue said in a disappointed tone, Zhuojun, I made my sister sad again. Am I an annoying girl?
Of course not! Xie Zhuojun brought himself back to Earth.
He kissed her on the forehead and forced out a smile. You are the best girl in the entire world!
He held Shangguan Rouxue with one arm and walked into the elevator, whilst the other arm was habitually massaging the spot between his eyebrows.
He was still frowning when they stepped out of the elevator and reached the underground parking lot.
He had a headache and he felt fidgety. Why did his meetings with Shangguan Ning always end up in an unpleasant way?
Although his rtionship with her had turned into a deadlock, Xie Zhuojun actually had been feeling quite guilty towards her. His mother said that had it not been for her, he might have never woken up again. Therefore, he had been trying to defuse the enmity between the two of them, hoping to make her live well bypensating her in some way.
But it seemed that Shangguan Ning always had the way to make him lose control and say words that hurt peoples feelings.
Shangguan Rouxue took a nce at Xie Zhuojun, who was frowning.
Seeing that he was unhappy, she threw herself into his arms, pursing her lips as she said softly, Zhuojun, sister still wont give us her blessing. What am I going to do? My sisters temper seems... to be getting worse than ever.
As she spoke, she caressed the back of her hand that Shangguan Ning pped, in a seemingly casual way.
Xie Zhuojun was a bit startled C was that so? Was it because Shangguan Nings temper was getting worse than ever?
He nced at Shangguan Rouxue who seemed pure and innocent and shook his head.
Maybe... it could have been, otherwise why did their rtionship keep getting worse every time they met. It was like that four years ago. Nothing had changed four yearster. It was so terrible of her to have pped Xues hand today.
The next morning was a sunny Monday. The snow from the previous day was melting gradually, showing the solid ground.
Shangguan Ning had a full schedule of sses in the morning. She grabbed her lessons material and drove to school.
As soon as she pulled into the parking lot, she heard someone knocking at her car window.
She looked up and spotted Zhao Anan, who was dressed in a ck jacket and a pair of ck leather pants.
She put on the coat and heard Anan giving out a whistle.
Beauty, free after ss? What about a date?
Shangguan Ning pinched her smooth face and answered smilingly, Not interested!
Zhao Anan was pissed. You are boring!
Shangguan Ning linked her arms with Anan and walked to the teaching building.
She said, Are you trying to be Matrix today? This outfit doesnt look right for a teacher.
Why not? Its cool and expensive too. Thank goodness, it makes me a headturner.
What? Didnt you say that you were poor and full of debtst week? This leather jacket... must have cost fifty or sixty thousand? Shangguan Ning was a bit confused.
Zhao Anan pped her own leg. Oops, almost spilt the truth! This outfit was paid with the one hundred thousand yuan she had gained by selling out Shangguan Ning. That definitely needed to be kept as a secret, otherwise she would be in big trouble.
She grinned diffidently and raised her voice. Oh yes! I was in debtst week, but I managed to fill up the hole this week. My... my western restaurant is doing well.
Those words convinced Shangguan Ning. She thought that she should tell Anan about her side job, since she knew about Anans restaurant now. Also, her cafe wasnt really a secret.
Anan, let me buy you coffeeter, okay?
Why?
Do I need a reason for buying you coffee?
Of course, yes! No lunch is free in this world. Spill now, what is it?
Shangguan Ning got a bit helpless. She said sincerely, Nothing special, really. I want to buy you coffee as a good friend. Nothing wrong with that, no?
Anan suddenly realized something.
She cried out excitedly, Are you falling for my brother and want me to set you up again?
How was her brother involved in this case suddenly?
Shangguan Ning had to surrender in front of Anan. She knew that if she didnt tell the truth on this day, many more bizarre thoughts would emerge out of Anans brain.
Okay, okay, okay, I will be honest! I opened a caf and hope you can have a taste of the coffee there.
Really not about my brother?
No! It has nothing to do with your brother! Shangguan Ning almost wanted to raise her hand and swear to god.
You arent falling for my brother? Anan seemed to be at the edge of getting really pissed.
No, no. I mean, your brother is really nice...
So you are falling for him? Anans eyes started to twinkle.
Eh, I...
Oh, yes. How was your meeting that day? My brother is great, isnt it? Got interested?
Shangguan Ning realized that it must have been a mistake to want to share the news of this secret caf with her.
She replied stiffly, It was... okay, but we...
Oh right. I left early that day because I didnt want to ruin your romantic atmosphere. You wont me me for that, will you? Zhao Anan looked so calm when she lied.
The truth was that she had been scared that her brother would kill her with his nce, after she had threatened him.
Of course not, I wont me you...
As they two talked, a familiar man came towards them.
The man was no other than Guo Shuai. He was wearing a pair of sses with golden frame and looked elegant. He had been pissed away by Shangguan Ning some days ago.
Both Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan had a bad impression of him. Shangguan Ning didnt want to talk with him, whilst Zhao Anan just couldnt let go of the chance.
In her opinion, it was a wild daydream of Guo Shuai to even think about having Shangguan Ning, who had been the beauty in many male teachers and students dreams after being at University of X for only half a year. The reason why the Beauty of Campus at the University had not been selected this year, was mostly because many guys thought that girl students in school were not a match against Shangguan Ning, the teacher.
Of course, she was well aware that Shangguan Ning had never considered herself beautiful. She thought of herself as someone with just an ordinary face.
However, being beautiful and not being aware of it, was a quality people tended to admire more.
Shangguan Ning was qualified enough to be her brothers wife. Some men like Guo Shuai couldnt have her in their dream also!

Chapter 10: I Need to Go Home to My Mother
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Hey, Toad Guo. What is that look? Do you want to eat us up?
Zhao Anan didnt spare any politeness while speaking with him when she saw a glimpse of evilness emerging out of Guo Shuais eyes.
She had no fear of anyone since childhood, except for her aggressive mother and her brother who exceeded her both in EQ and IQ. Whenever she annoyed someone, her brother was always able to settle the issue with them for her. Guo Shuai was nothing more than a tiny nuisance.
Anan had seen him having dinner with Shangguan Ningst time at the restaurant. She had heard what he said and concluded that he was a terrible person. She would have driven him out directly had she known that Ning had nothing to do with him.
Guo Shuai got extremely angry when he heard her calling him Toad Guo. He pointed at Zhao Anan, trying hard to squeeze some words out but only ended up saying a few yous.
Shangguan Ning was very amused by this title. But she tried to press down theughter at the moment because she thought it might not be proper behavior.
Huh? Whats wrong with you? Have you suddenly started stuttering seeing the beauty? You better find a pool and check your own reflection in it. Then, you will understand your horrible look is not meant to be coupled with our swan! Our beauty Shangguan is already taken. If you keep badgering her, I will remove some part of your body!
Shangguan Ning had wanted to stop Anan, but she spoke too fast and too much for her to do anything in time. Guo Shuai had already flushed so much that his face color became as red as a pigs liver.
He knew that no one could have known about his pursuit of Shangguan Ning, unless Shangguan Ning had leaked that news herself.
Guo Shuai got so enraged that he was shivering from head to feet.
This bitch thought so highly of herself for having a pretty face. She looked pure on the surface, but she was actually going around ruining his reputation. There would be a time when she would kneel down and crawl towards him, begging for his mercy with tears filling up her eyes!
Also, she already had a boyfriend, but she was still trying to lure him. What a disgusting, pretentious woman!
However, a good man wouldnt be bothered with the trouble at the present. This Zhao Anan had been arrogantly domineering on many asions. Look at her ck jacket and hair dyed in green color! She wasnt a nice woman, either. When Shangguan Ning met her downfall, he would have numerous ways to repay her! It was never toote for a man to take revenge!
Seeing Guo Shuais expression, Shangguan Ning understood that he must be hating her now more than ever. He might have already scolded her dozens of times inside his heart.
However, she was not afraid of him. She just didnt want Anan to be involved in this matter. She tugged at Anans sleeves and said softly, Lets go. The ss is starting.
Anan also noticed that Guo Shuai wasnt thinking right. She had the impulse of beating him up, yet she was forced away by Shangguan Ning at that moment.
Ning, you dont need to be scared of that toad. He wont dare to do anything. Later, I will ask my brother to get rid of him.
Shangguan Ning had actually felt thankful to Anan during the first part of the sentence because she only addressed her as Ning when she was talking about something serious. Otherwise, she always called her Beauty for normal conversation.
But the second part of the sentence almost made her fall off the road.
How can he do nothing, when his wife is being hunted by someone else?
Hey, hey. Zhao Anan. Dates can be set casually, but words cant. Even if my reputation doesnt matter, your brothers should be, right? Dont be a bad sister, okay!
What do you mean? I was just letting my brother have the best girl. Besides, the Chinese New Year is in one months time, Do you know what that means? It means that we are all getting an year older. You will be 27 next year, my brother 33. Sigh! Time and tide wait for no one. I think you two should get married this year.
She was totally off the track. It was never going to happen.
A handsome yet distant silhouette shed across her brain. She couldnt help but sigh upon his perfection. But that was all there was to him. She had met him only once and didnt experience any profound feelings towards him.
Marriage seemed to be something really far fetched for her. She was afraid that she might end up living as a singledy for an incredibly long time.
Shangguan Ning shook her head, grinning. Anan, lets not talk about me. What about you?
Anan was too absorbed in the fantasy of her brothers wedding to realize what Ning said. Me? What about me?
When are you getting married?
Im not getting married. I told you that. Zhao Anan had an of-course-that-was-the-case expression on her face.
Shangguan Ning had heard her not getting married speech, but she thought that it was just a speech. She had been deeply hurt by Xie Zhuojun and Shangguan Rouxue. But even then, she had not thought about giving up on marriage. It was just not the right time for her to get married. Anan was an outgoing girl. She didnt look like someone who had been hurt in love. Therefore, she shouldnt have chosen this alternative.
Thats nonsense. We are the same age. You will be 27 next year too. Sigh! Time and tides wait for no one!
Seeing that Shangguan Ning had repaid her with her own words, Anan couldnt help but burst intoughter. I have eaten immortal pills, so time is not a problem for a young, vigorous girl like me!
Shangguan Ningughed along. They two walked towards the ssroom together.
When they finished their respective sses in the morning, they ate lunch at a newly-opened hotpot ce outside school. Then, they drove to the studio in Gaoxin District to y tennis. That was their tradition, something that they almost never skipped. Shangguan Ning would drag her all the way there, even if Anan gotzy sometimes.
The studio at Gaoxin District was called Big World. It was true to its name for being massive in area and rich in having various kinds of studios. The studio had indoor and outdoor tennis courts. For a cold day like this, only indoor tennis courts were suitable to y a game. There were almost no indoor tennis courts in any studio in A City.
As a tennis lover, Shangguan Ning had checked almost every tennis court in A City before she finally found this treasured ce.
The two of them changed into sportswear and sneakers, did ten minutes of pre-exercise and then started to y.
It was not even half an hour yet when Anan started to cry in pain. Beauty, it is such a self-abusing thing to y tennis with you! At first, you lied to me for being bad at it. In fact you are more professional than the professionals.
Do you think my inability to attack can turn into a Guinness Record? For the past six months, I have lost numerous times, but fought equally numerous times. My soul and body have been seriously tormented, yet I am still alive!
Shangguan Ning ignored her nagging and stopped to drink up half bottle of water. She waved the racket and said, Cmmon!
No, no, no! Im too tired to y anymore. I need to go home to my mother!
Forget about it. I could have believed that before, but now I dont. You are really good at taekwondo and swimming, to not have energy for tennis. Shangguan Ning passed her the water bottle and spoke with a grin.
We can continue, but you must spare me. Forget your bottom-line and spare me. We arent on the same level. You are just tormenting me on purpose. Zhao Anan understood pretty well that skipping the game was impossible. More importantly, she liked ying with her, yet had no intention of making the Beauty feel too proud. That was why she needed to bargain actively.
Chapter 11 - He Looked Good in Everything
Chapter 11: He Looked Good in Everything
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
I have been sparing you all this time. What you are doing now is worse than even defeat. Too bad you arent equally skilled.
Shangguan Ning had no choice but to speak truth. Unexpectedly, the words activated Zhao Anans desire to win. She grabbed the racket instantly. Hmmph! Im never scared! I will surely win this time!
However, half an hour passed and Zhao Anan was still a defeated participant.
As they were ying, Zhao Anan suddenly abandoned the racket and shamelessly slumped down upon the ground. Sheughed as she said, Hahaha, Beauty Shangguan! I know who can conquer you!
Shangguan Ning stopped in her steps, drank some water and showed a confident smile. Oh, really? Let her try ying me someday. But you have no excuse to run away today.
Zhao Anan shook her head like a rattle, eyes twinkling bright as stars. She pointed at the entrance of the pitch and said excitedly, Not someday. He is here today!
Shangguan Nings eyes traced the direction in which she was pointing. A tall and straight perfect figure greeted her eyes.
He was with a group of women and men. But none of them was able to mask his dazzling radiance. He stood there coldly, with a charisma that shone above the crowd.
Although Shangguan Ning considered this man distant and bizarre, she had to admit that he was extremely eye catching at this moment.
Jing Yichen seemed to have sensed something as well. He moved his distant pair of eyes to Shangguan Ning but moved them away very fast.
So fast that Shangguan Ning thought she had just imagined it!
Zhao Anan waved to him instantly when she saw him looking towards their direction.
Jing Yichen, however, continued to speak with people next to him as if he had never noticed her. He nodded every now and then, as he talked.
Soon, he moved towards the entrance of the tennis pitch, surrounded by arge crowd of people.
Zhao Anan was disappointed and dissatisfied. She felt that she had lost her face in front of her good friend. But that was what Jing Yichen was like C cold and distant, not willing to greet others with enthusiasm.
But Anan was a thick-skinned girl. She was able to adapt herself to any situation. She dialled Jing Yichens number, not caring whether he was busy with something or not.
The call didnt connect until a whileter. Anan understood that he must have been busy inspecting the entire project of Big World. It was one branch of his family business and was soon going to be under his charge.
Shangguan Ning noticed what happened a while ago. Manager Qian, who was the person responsible for the tennis courts, was standing besides the crowd of people with full respect. She had suspected that Jing Yichen might have been the real owner of Big World Studio but she was smart enough not to ask. She knew that Anan would have told her if it was not a secret.
Brother, when are you finished? Come and y tennis when you are done! Im being bullied! Come and take revenge for me, otherwise I will report you to the two olddies!
Is that your only trick? Jing Yichens voice sounded cold but he didnt reject her.
One line is more than enough for you. Women and viins are the hardest to handle and Im both of them! Are youing or not? Anan didnt care about anything other than Jing Yichens helping hand to extract her revenge. She had been suffering defeat for half a year already!
Jing Yichen threw a nce at the crowd outside the ss door of the conference room, hesitated for a moment before saying, Okay.
He hung up the call and walked out of the conference room. He exchanged a few brief words with the present Manager of the Big World Studio. Then he walked away, abandoning the startled group of people behind.
Tiger, who had always been by Jing Yichens side, had never expected that Master would have finished the inspection so fast. But he never asked more than he needed to and followed him always full-heartedly. It was not any different this time. He caught up with Jing Yichen once he spotted him leave the building.
Jing Yichen reached his luxurious Aston Martin, opened the trunk. He took out a set of sportswear and a pair of sneakers from the suitcase full of clothes. Luckily, he had the habit of carrying clothes with him wherever he went.
Tiger, you are free to go now. I am ying tennis for a while. Will call you when I leave. Jing Yichen told Tiger and then went to change his clothes.
Tiger was confused. Master had been too abrupt and sudden for him to catch up to.
Did Master finish the inspection ahead of time just to y tennis?
No way! That was not Masters way of doing things.
He always finished things fully once he started them. He never gave up halfway. Very few people were able to affect his decision.
Also, hadnt Master told him sometime ago that he was quitting tennis? What was wrong with him today?
Tiger hadnt noticed Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan at the tennis pitch, a while ago. He was totally focused upon his own Master whenever there was a huge crowd of people around. This was precautionary in case he ran into any dangerous situations. There had been many times when such unsafe incidents had urred. Hence, he needed to be careful with everything.
Zhao Anan, on the other hand, was delighted beyond words. She waved and danced around on the court.
Actually, she had been a bit worried that her brother would not approve her messing around. Apparently he had been engrossed in the activities of the family business. He nned to take them over smoothly in the near future.
Also, he had never taken any interest in being with people he wasnt familiar with. Although he had met Shangguan Ning, they were not on a familiar term with each other enough yet.
It was a surprise that her brother had agreed so fast. A strange feeling reached her but the careless Zhao Anan soon forgot about it. She was deeply absorbed in the joy that her brother had agreed to help her with the revenge.
Haha, my brother ising soon. Beauty, be ready to lose! Zhao Anan was highly ttered, as if it was she who was going to beat Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Nings eyes brightened. She got curious and asked, Does your brother y tennis well?
Of course he does! I have never met anyone who can beat him on that since I was born. He used to be the renowned Prince of Tennis, attracting countless girls who went running after him crazily all the time. The reason why he stopped ying tennis was because he got too scared of those shameless girls. Anan seemed to be exaggerating. It looked as if she was trying to extol her brother into the sky!
However, Anan had been even more extravagant with herpliments when she was presenting her brother thest time. The truth was that her description had turned out to bepletely true, not a single element of exaggeration in that at all.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but look forward to it.
She had not yed tennis with someone really skilled for a long time, nor had she experienced an exciting and delightful match for a while.
Minutester, when Shangguan Ning was almost done with resting, Jing Yichen came towards them, dressed in a white outfit.
Jing Yichen looked indescribably vital, dressed in sportswear. His coldness seemed to have disappeared and his tall handsome figure made him look like some character walking out of a painting.
Shangguan Ning was slightly taken aback. He looked good in everything!
Chapter 12 - A Well Matched Contest
Chapter 12: A Well Matched Contest
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
For one moment, Shangguan Ning was able to imagine his perfect look on the pitch. Zhao Anan might not have exaggerated in saying that numerous crazy girls were running after him, years ago.
Anan was delighted. She waved as she yelled loudly, Brother, we are here. Come here, quick.
She had grown up with Jing Yichen and had already be immune to his radiance.
Jing Yichen on the opposite side narrowed his pretty eyebrows C could my cousin be any dumber?
There were only two of them on the pitch and they were just 200 meters away from each other. He was not blind and could see everything himself. What was she yelling so loudly for? Did she want the people he had just abandoned to notice him?
But he showed no outward sign of whatever he was thinking inside. He still looked distant.
Two tall and slender silhouettes were getting closer as he was approaching, one was white and the other tanned.
The tanned one was improperly dressed, with several ball prints all over the clothes. Half of her pant legs were rolled up and the sleeves folded up almost to the shoulders. She was sweaty and her short-hair was dripping with sweat, looking like a mess.
The white ones long hair was tied up at the back of her hair in a in yet neat way. Her white sportswear was still clean with no dirt. There was no such a thing as rolled-up trouser legs or folded sleeves. Her cheeks were slightly pink, with small drops of sweat hanging alongside the face. She didnt look messy. Instead, she looked amazingly pretty as someone who had just finished exercise.
Jing Yichen thought that the visual effect created by them was different from each other.
Maybe it was because of the presence of Zhao Anan, his cousin, who he had grown up with, that he didnt sound as cold as before. He spoke gently with a touch of blended warmth. Hi, Ms. Shangguan.
Hello, Mr. Z...
Before Shangguan Ning could finish her greeting, Zhao Anan beside burst out in a cry. Hey, your clothes look like couples outfits!
Startled, Shangguan Ning looked down at herself and then nced at Jing Yichen who was also dressed in white. Truly, their clothes looked very simr to each others. But sportswear looked almost the same everywhere. It wasnt a rare thing that two peoples clothes matched with each others.
She smiled without saying anything. No words could fit in this situation.
And Jing Yichen looked even calmer. His expression didnt change as if nothing had reached his ears.
Anan saw that the awkwardness she had expected didnt happen. Instead, their tacit agreement for not answering to her, made her feel as she had been abandoned by the entire world.
Anan, dont you want to y tennis? Jing Yichens voice was low but maic. It sounded so wonderful that people could not help but ignore the distant feeling that came along.
Oh, yes, yes! Anan hopped all of a sudden and passed her own tennis racket with two hands to her brother in a ve-like way.
That was what Anan cared about most at this moment. Shangguan Ning had bullied her too many times. She couldnt wait to see her being bullied back by someone else.
Seeing the watery and dirty racket, Jing Yichen narrowed his eyes, grabbed a handkerchief from his pocket and wrapped the handle with it. He carefully wiped the handle twice before holding up the racket.
Anan didnt have any objection towards her cousins disdain. Instead, she leaned forward and whispered, Brother, dont spare any efforts in the match. That girl looks gentle and pretty, but she is actually really fierce. Seeing Jing Yichens look cooled down to a degree, she added, Well... I was just doubting your skills. I am worried that you will be taken advantage of.
Jing Yichen had already noticed that without Anans reminder. The ball prints upon Anans body and the clean surface on Shangguan Nings white sportswear exined everything. No ball hadnded on Shangguan Ning and that was not what an ordinary yer was able to aplish.
He did some warm up and gestured Shangguan Ning to begin.
A professional was indeed a professional. Jing Yichen gave out apletely different feeling the moment he came to the court with the racket.
He looked professional, both from his standing posture and the angle at which he held the racket.
That made Shangguan Ning be doubly cautious.
Serving, catching and returning. After several back-and-forth tryouts, the two of them quickly abandoned the awkwardness and reached a tacit agreement. Within no time, the two of them started to put all their efforts in the match and y attentively.
Jing Yichen lost the first round because of a small mistake.
Jing Yichen lost the second round because of slow reaction.
Jing Yichen lost the third round because of Anans roaring.
Bad as Anan was at ying tennis, she was indeed a good spector. Apparently, her brother was slightly worse at tennis.
Brother! Come and catch the ball here.
Brother! Forward. Quick.
Brother! You need to jump to get this ball.
Brother...
Jing Yichen really had the impulse of smashing Anan down into the earth with the racket.
He threw a sharp nce at Anan, who was taken back for a moment before she craned her neck and cried out loudly, Am I not even allowed toment on your terrible skill? I am just worried about you. You used to y pretty well. Are you trying to spare the beautifuldy?
Shangguan Ning couldnt resist the amusement. Sheughed with her mouth pressed.
Anan was indeed her best friend. She had managed to be a dead weight teammate for her brother.
Shut up or I will have you thrown out. Jing Yichen looked calm though. He was not ashamed to have lost the game. Instead, it was Anans words that brought blue veins out of his forehead.
Anan gave out a shriek. She knew that Jing Yichen was always true to his words.
She looked around and found that Tiger was not close by. She let out a sigh of relief.
That dumb headed, strong Tiger would do anything that Jing Yichen told him to. She didnt want to be thrown out by him. What a shame it would be.
Although Jing Yichen kept losing all the time, he was in a good mood.
He could have beaten Shangguan Ning ten years ago, but he apparently wasnt able to do so now. He hadnt yed tennis for a very long time.
Men and women were different in stamina and physical structure. He shouldnt have been in such a terrible state even if he hadnt yed for so long. The only exnation was that Shangguan Nings ability in tennis was higher than ordinary level.
She beat him with strength and she was fast. She served explosively, which was a contrast to her slim appearance. Her stance was standard and she was fast on the court. She knew how to use the force properly and was able to shift between forehand and backhand as she wished. Her bnce and flexibility were also up to the best level.
Apparently, she had received strict, professional training and never stopped practicing. That was how she had managed to stay ahead in the games.
It wasnt a shame to lose to someone like her.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning resumed the game after being interrupted by Anan. Both of them looked forward to ying with each other.
The two of them yed better and better with each other. As the game went forward, Shangguan Ning started to lose few rounds. But she still was the winner most of the time.
Shangguai Ning finally got exhausted after ying for almost two hours.
I need a break. She panted, wiped away the sweat from the forehead and was about to get a tissue paper out of the bag when a white handkerchief was handed to her unexpectedly.
Chapter 13 - Let’s Play Tennis Together in Future
Chapter 13: Lets y Tennis Together in Future
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning was slightly surprised. This man seemed to have a habit of carrying a handkerchief with him at all times. It wasnt amonly seen habit nowadays.
She epted it gratefully and smiled. Thank you!
No worries. Jing Yichen said as he sat down on the bench. He opened a bottle of water and started to drink from it.
Having wiped her face and hands, Shangguan Ning noticed that the handkerchief had gotten stained. She thought it was not a good idea to give it back to him in this form nor was it a proper thing to throw it away.
She thought for a moment and put the handkerchief in her bag. She will return it to him after she had washed it up.
Shangguan Ning looked around and realized that Zhao Anan was nowhere to be seen.
She sat down on the bench, drank some water and took out her cell phone to call Anan.
Anan, where are you? Its time to go.
Oh, well... I... have a stomach ache and I already left. You two take your time. Anan lied without even blinking her eyes.
Shangguan Ning thought that she was doing something secretive, so she had no choice but to hang up. Actually, Shangguan Ning had gotten her friend wrong. Anan was just trying to create opportunity for the two of them to be alone.
Hmm... Mr. Zhao, Anan had something to do, so she left early.
Yes, I know. Jing Yichen still had the calm look about him. He was not at all surprised by Anans absence.
The two of them kept a proper distance between them, though Jing Yichen could smell the light scent that came out of her body. Her pretty face had turned a delicate pink because of the exercise. It looked delicious enough that people would want to lunge forward and take a bite of it.
He directed his eyes towards her.
You yed well.
Jing Yichen was still wearing a calm look, but if Anan had heard this, she would have been really surprised. Jing Yichen almost never praised anyone and if he thought that something was good, then it was indeed really outstanding.
Yes, I think so too. Shangguan Ning showed him a happy smile. It was something she took pride in.
Jing Yichen was a bit taken aback. He had thought that Shangguan Ning would show some humility. But she had unexpectedly praised herself without being courteous.
He raised the corner of his mouth slightly. You are not being humble.
In other matters I am, but I dont need to be on this one. Shangguan Ning said as she looked at Jing Yichen.
You yed well too, but maybe you hadnt yed it in a long time, so you were a bit stiff to begin with. Otherwise I dont think I could have beaten you.
His postures were all up to standard, but he moved stiffly and had gotten strained easily. Apparently, he hadnt yed tennis in a long time.
The side angle of Jing Yichens face was perfect. Shangguan Ning could see his long eyshes from this angle. He looked way too handsome.
There was a moment of silence and Shangguan Ning thought that she had said something wrong. However, Jing Yichen unexpectedly spoke in a teasing tone, You didnt blink even for a second. Am I that good-looking?
Shangguan Ning nearly spilled out the water before swallowing it down. She choked and started to cough.
Her face was getting red. She wasnt sure if it was because of the choking or embarrassment.
God! How could anyone be so straightforward?
She wiped her mouth, thought for a moment and then spoke the truth. You are indeed good looking.
Although Jing Yichen kept his face calm, a grin had already burst inside his heart. She was the first one who had spoken to him in such a straightforward way.
But it felt good C at least they had skipped the roundabout conversation.
His life was already very exhausting. The straightforward personality made him rx. They talked without hiding anything or without a hidden agenda. It was great.
Seeing Jing Yichen in a pleasant mood, Shangguan Ning invited him. Mr. Zhao, you yed really well. I assume that you must have been an excellent yer earlier. But your skills have probably degenerated now. What about ying together in future?
It had taken her ages to run into someone equally skilled as her and she didnt want to let the opportunity go. So she gave it a try, no matter whether he was willing or not.
The strange thing was that Shangguan Ning didnt reject him for being cold and distant. Instead, she thought it was afortable thing to hang out with him.
Previously, she didnt like people with cold personality because she thought that these kind of people might be cruel. But after her experience with Xie Zhuojue, she gradually came to the realization that people who looked as warm as the morning sun might not necessarily have a warm and soft heart, whilst those who looked cold on surface might not necessarily have a cold heart.
Appearance was one thing, while heart was something different.
Jing Yichen didnt find it weird being addressed as Mr. Zhao, so he didnt correct her. His mothers family name was Zhao, and he had called himself Zhao earlier for practical reasons.
Jing was a showy and ruthless family name. He didnt like it so much.
The word degenerated was used for him for the first time in a matter of factly way.
Truthful words grated upon his ears. He had degenerated in tennis.
He would always be reminded of that incident and that person every time he saw a tennis court. That was why he had lost interest in tennis. However, he didnt think much about that today and felt quite rxed in his heart for some reason.
Jing Yichen didnt think much before answering quickly. Okay!
Shangguan Ning was quite happy to see him approve the invitation. She stretched out her hand towards him, smiling. Happy Coboration!
Jing Yichen stretched out his own after taking a look at the white and slim hand. Happy Coboration!
Their hands separated the moment they touched each other, but both of them had felt the heat there C scorching and beautiful.
Shangguan Ning ignoring the strangeness, started to pack and got ready to leave.
Jing Yichen watched her quietly, saying nothing.
Shangguan Ning finished packing her things swiftly. Both of them walked towards the exit slowly.
You y tennis quite professionally. Did you receive some special training?
Shangguan Nings heart hopped, hearing Jing Yichens low, sexy voice so close.
Yes, I did. I trained with a coach, day and night. I even got blisters on my hands. The tip of her eyebrows and the corner of her eyes were twinkling with joy as she was recalling her time with the coach. It was a bitter yet fulfilling and steady period.
Jing Yichen understood that she must have gone through a lot to reach a level like hers. She looked like a fragile girl but inside, she was someone strong and undefeated.
Strong girls hurt peoples heart.
Why did you fight so hard? You didnt look like someone who wanted to be an athlete. Jing Yichen was slightly confused. A girl with Shangguan Nings background could have surely lived a rxing and leisurely life. She didnt have to go through bitterness or fight so hard.
It could be seen clearly from her charisma and etiquette that she was bred by a big family. She behaved elegantly, in a way that couldnt be imitated by anyone else postnatally.
If he had it right, Shangguai Ning might belong to Family Shangguan.
Shangguan was a rare family name and there was only one famous Family Shangguan in the entire A City or even in the entire province.
Shangguan Ning got a bit distracted after hearing what Jing Yichen had said.
Yeah, why did she fight so hard? She had never thought about bing an athlete when she decided to learn to y tennis.
It was just a fight for willpower and spirit.
In her twenty-six-year life of darkness, she had exceeded Shangguan Rouxue in only two things C ability to learnnguages and y tennis.

Shangguan Rouxue yed tennis well, but Shangguan Ning was much better. It was not only the result of Shangguan Nings constant efforts, but also because of her innate gift.
When Shangguan Ning discovered that she could be better than Shangguan Rouxue in tennis, she started to practice crazily. Her tennis skills progressed tremendously after her 100% efforts and innate gift. Even her tennis coach had the intention of rmending her to be included in the national team.
But she rejected it back then because she had already be engaged to Xie Zhuojun at that time, and Mr. & Mrs. Xie didnt want their daughter-inw to be an athlete.
But not being able to be an athlete didnt mean that she wasnt allowed to y tennis. Therefore, Shangguan Ning performed wonderfully at Domestic University Tennis Contest.
In that particr year, when she went for the tennis contest during summer holidays, Xie Zhuojun ended up being with Shangguan Rouxue.
Deeply saddened, she went all the way to New Zend, where she continued with her studies and tried to heal herself.
After she went abroad, she didnt touch tennis for a very long time. But after a while, she wasnt able to leave itpletely. So, she gradually started to y again.
That was why Zhao Anan, who wasnt trained in tennis, got beaten so fiercely by Shangguan Ning. No matter how much Shangguan Ning tried to spare her, there was still a huge difference between their skills. Shangguan Ning had no difficulty in beating Zhao Anan who had so many loopholes in her game.
Seeing the happy Shangguan Ning nking out and brightness dimming from her beautiful, twinkling eyes, Jing Yichen immediately changed the topic. How did an excellent yer like you end up ying with Zhao Anan? She can win a fight single-handedly, but does not stand a chance in tennis at all.
Shangguan Ning brought herself back to the present and realized that Jing Yichen was finding faults in his own sister. She was suddenly amused.
How can you demean your sister like that? She thought of how proud Anan looked when she was introducing Jing Yichen to her.
She continued speaking with lips half-curved, Anan speaks very highly of you.
Jing Yichen replied expressionlessly, I was speaking highly of her just now too.
The two of them walked for a while and parted at the parking lot because Shangguan Nings car was at the parking lot whilst Jing Yichens car was parked somewhere else.
Shangguan Ning got into the car, fastened the seat belt and drove away as she waved to Jing Yichen.
A whileter, Tiger drove in and took Jing Yichen away.
Jing Yichens cell phone kept ringing constantly in the car. He picked it up, frowning.
Chen! Where are you? You have been away for so long. Have you forgotten about me? Have I bred an ungrateful grandson!
I wille see you when I have time. Jing Yichen sounded a little tired, so he replied lightly.
I know you too well. You wont return if I dont urge you. Okay, if you still donte home in a couple of days, I wille to you at your new home.
Oh also, hurry up and bring home a wife! Your grandpa and I have little time left. Do you n to get married after we die? You are burdened with the mission of extending our Family Jings bloodline! If the bloodline is cut at your generation, we will have no face to meet our ancestors after we die!
I met your grandmother several days ago. She is also looking forward to seeing you getting married! Please, have mercy on us olddies. We are old enough to be dead and still we have to be so worried about your lifes issues. How can you be so vicious...?
The Old Lady Mo Lan nagged for a long while. She pretended to be pitiful, threatened, lured and used all the tricks she could think of, but no reaction came from the other side of the cell phone.
Chen, did you hear me talking? The olddy got a bit worried, raising her voice.
Jing Yichen had put his phone far away from his ears, and didnt answer a short Okay until a long whileter. Then he hung up the cell phone.
The cell phone rang again within no time.
He picked it up, feeling a bit annoyed. What is it?
The Old Lady didnt care about her grandsons coldness and irritation. Instead, she was a bit happy as she asked, Why did you hang up before I finished my words? So ungrateful! But I heard that Anan set you up with a university teacher?
Jing Yichen frowned C Zhao Anan just couldnt keep her mouth shut!
I heard that she is pretty and well-educated. Do you like her? Well, I think an average moneyed one is enough. We dont need her money, do we? The girls family doesnt matter, as long as she is nice to you!
If this one doesnt work out, I will set you up another one. A model, beautiful and charismatic. I know her parents. Both are nice people. What about a date with her someday soon?
Oh, yes. Your grandmother has spotted one for you too. Seems that she is a high-level white cor at a foreignpany...
Jing Yichen hung up the cell phone directly once again. He refused to take any more calls from the Old Lady.
Tiger, back to the apartment.
Yes, Master. Tiger replied and started to drive towards the apartment.
As soon as they entered the underground parking lot of Landscape Compound, a womans sharp voice echoing across the parking lot greeted Jing Yichens ears.
... how can you have nowhere to live? You have your own home! What do you mean by staying in our house? Hehe, Deputy-Mayor Shangguan is indeed an honest and upright officer, is he? He doesnt even have a ce for his own daughter to sleep at!
At first, Jing Yichen didnt care about that. But when he heard the word Deputy-Mayor Shangguan, he turned around into that direction.
Many cars kepting in and out in the parking lot, so Jing Yichens car didnt draw the attention of Shangguan Ning and the two women beside her.
Shangguan Nings face looked cold. She had not nned to say anything in case the situation got worse. But as her Aunt Lin Yu and her cousin Huang Xinyi started to talk with increasingly insulting words, and to drag her father into the conversation, she finally opened her mouth and said with a cold voice, Dont worry Aunt, I will definitely move out before the New Year and the apartment will be returned to you intact. As for Deputy-Mayor Shangguan, I suggest you not getting involved, or you might get into trouble without knowing that.
She chose to stay in this apartment, only because it was located far away from her Uncles home, so that she could avoid conflicts with her Aunt.
However, Aunt still came to the door, and it was not the first time. From the day she returned to China, she would visit here almost every month, forcing her to hand over the apartment.
Actually, Shangguan Ning had already started to look for an apartment two months ago. She still had some legacy from her mother, and buying an apartment wasnt a problem for her. But the money was left by her mother, and she didnt want to splurge it away. So seeking a rtively fair-priced ce was taking a long time.
Also, Uncle Huang Lihan was a renowned real estate developer in A City and many buildings were developed and built by him. So Uncle would know about her buying an apartment within two days wherever she decided to settle down.
If he got to know that it had been Aunt who took over the apartment he gave to her, the couple would surely be fall into another fight again, or could even be in a cold war for months.

Chapter 15: Let Me Take It for You

Shangguai Ning hoped that her Uncle would not know about her n of buying another apartment. She was sure that her Aunt would not tell her Uncle that she had driven Ning out of the apartment .
Although Shangguan Ning didnt like her Aunt much, Uncle was her only family apart from her cold-blooded father. Uncle had given her a great deal of love and she didnt want to cause problems for his family just because of her own issues. That was being selfish.
Go home, Aunt. Dont let Uncle know about your visit. I will move out soon. She could rent a apartment in the worst case.
Cousin Huang Xinyi sneered. She said with lips pursed. Hmmph. The only thing you know, is acting as if you were a good person. Act in front of Daddy, not in front of us. Shame on you!
Shangguan Ning looked at her coldly with a frown. But she said nothing.
There were many things that could have been exined clearly. Her conflicts with her Cousin and Aunt had been going on for a long time. She had tried to defuse the issues between them, yet had achieved no result. The best way was to stay silent otherwise the two of them would quarrel with her until the next day.
Lin Yu agreed with her daughters wordspletely. This goddamned Shangguan Ning had taken so much advantage of their family. If she had not stepped forward and prevented him, the entire family would have been emptied by her betraying husband!
It is true that our family is into real estate business, but apartments arent gained out of nothing. Besides, Family Huang didnt develop thispound. Jingsheng Enterprise did. They often set high price on apartments and we didnt buy this one to bring benefits for someone outside the family.
Huang Real Estate had been founded by Shangguan Nings grandfather singlehandedly and it grew rapidly in Uncle Huang Liyans hands. It had be one of the best real estate agencies in A City.
Of course, it was nothingpared to Jingsheng Enterprise, which dealt with electronic devices, science and technology, film & entertainment, hotels, shopping malls and real estate etc. They had branches everywhere across the country. They had only a few real estate projects in A City, but all of them were luxurious buildings.
Uncle had a good rtionship with the present President Jing Zhongxiu of Jingshen Enterprise. Uncle might have bought this apartment at the lowest price, but Aunt knew nothing about it.
Aunt Lin Yus shrill voice echoed across the parking lot, attracting many people to look towards this direction.
Not wanting to make a scene, Shangguan Ning turned around and was about to leave when Lin Yu grabbed hold of her.
Look at your branded clothes and your car. Your life is too luxurious, to not being able to afford an apartment. You are teaching at the university, right? I heard teachers have high sry there. Oh yes, dont teachers get apartment from schools too? Do you have one already? Are you trying to take over our apartment when you have already got one?
Shangguan Nings white NIKE outfit plus sneakers were far cheaper than Huang Xinyis LV handbag. Besides, schools in the present day didnt provide apartments to teachers like they used to.
Lin Yu was just badgering her unreasonably.
She was already tired from tennis. At this moment, she felt weakness in the entire body increasing by the minute.
She pulled out the arm Lin Yu was holding onto and was about to take a step forward when a foot stretched out and tripped her over.
Shangguan Ning fell straight upon the ground. She couldnt help but cry out in pain.
Huang Xinyin withdrew her foot and said pretentiously, Oh, Cousin you should be more careful while walking!
Lin Yu finally felt happy. She took Huang Xinyis hands and was about to leave when a tall man came in front of them.
Who are you? What are you doing here? You bitch, you have helpers? Get away from us. We are not someone whom you dare irritate.
Tiger hade to stand in front of them. He did not move an inch. His eyes were fixed upon his Master. It was the first time after so many years when he saw his Master holding a woman like this.
Jing Yichen stretched out his arms and put them around Shangguan Nings waist, slowly helping her to get on feet. Seeing her face wrinkled in pain, he couldnt help but frown. Why didnt you dodge when they were pushing you in dirt.
Her white sportswear had been stained, hair loosened. She looked messy.
But Jing Yichen, who was always so obsessed with cleanness, didnt care a thing. Instead, he felt that she had made his heart ache.
It was not until Shangguan Ning got back to her feet that she realized it was Jing Yichen, who had helped her up.
A touch of warmth flew into her heart upon hearing his words. Then she asked with slight surprise, What are you doing here?
Seeing that she could stand on her feet, Jing Yichen withdrew his hands and nodded lightly. I just moved here.
The trucks, hoists and the luxurious, eye-attracting Aston Martin suddenly crossed her mind. She looked up at the good-natured guy and understood all.
It was he who had moved in that day!
No wonder she had seen the car outside Victorian.
She mumbled softly, It was you.
On the other side, Lin Yu and Huang Xinyi were pissed that they were being held up. But seeing such a perfectly handsome young man like Jing Yichen in front of them, drove their anger away. Joy arose inside them immediately.
Although they had no idea who Jing Yichen was, yet his charisma and the face that exceeded the best-looking star in A City and Tiger, who was apparently an intimidating bodyguard, made them realize that he must be from a wealthy family.
Huang Xinyis eyes sparkled. Her lustful eyes embarrassed Shangguan Ning.
Lin Yu lightened her anger, but did not fully restrain it. Instead, she naturally took Jing Yichen as her son-inw and put on her greasy expressions. She pulled her bashful daughter to her side and said, What is your family name, Mr? Are you married? This is my daughter Huang Xinyi, thedy of Huang Real Estate, and the only inheritor. Maybe we can get to know each other better?
She thought that as long as she put forward Huang Real Estate, people would surely want to be friends with them.
Unexpectedly, however, Jing Yichen had no expression on his face as if he had heard nothing. He said to Tiger in a very chilly tone, One arm off for each of them.
Hearing the order, Tiger immediately strained up and put efforts into his hands. He looked totally different from his usual, honest, good-natured being. Even the white teeth which he showed, were creepy.
No! Fright cast over Shangguan Ning, cold sweat dripping from her body. She tried to stop him.
But it was already toote.
A shrill scream came out and one of Huang Xinyis arms was dislocated from her shoulder.
Seeing Tiger releasing Huang Xinyis arm and turning to Lin Yus, Shangguan Ning immediately held onto Jing Yichens arms. No, no, no. Please! She is my Aunt, please dont!
Jing Yichen had heard them talking when he was in the car. He knew that one of them was her Aunt, the other her Cousin. What he detested most was that her own family had been so cruel to Shangguan Ning.
At this moment, however, Shuangguan Ning looked so nervous and her tender, beautiful face was full of soft pleading. The arm that held on to him was so tight that he could clearly feel the soft shivering of her body.
Jing Yichens heart, which had been sealed and frozen for so long, opened up with a touch of softness.
Chapter 16 - Evils Need Other Evils to Dominate
Chapter 16: Evils Need Other Evils to Dominate
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yichen sighed lightly and nodded at Tiger. Only then, did Tiger give up what he was just about to do.
Lin Yi let out a sigh of relief. She turned around and found that her daughter was in such pain that her face had paled, her body shivered as if she had met the most horrible evil ghost. Her heart ached. She held her daughter in arms, crying constantly. Yet she dared not say anything, fearing that she would irritate the cruel demon opposite her.
Shangguan Ning was relieved as well. Although she disliked Aunt and Cousin, they were her Uncles wife and daughter. They were his closest family members and who were supposed to keep himpany throughout his life. Otherwise she wouldnt have been so polite to them.
Only after she rxed did she realize that she had been holding on to Jing Yichens arm. She let go of the arm quickly, panicking slightly.
The soft and warm body went away from Jing Yichen, freeing him. Yet it was the first time for him to wish that this kind of strained feeling would stay a bit longer.
A touch of strangeness arose from the bottom of his heart and it came so fast that he was unable to press it down in time.
Jing Yichen thought that he must have gone crazy.
Yet he disguised himself perfectly, still showing a cold face. There was no change in his expressions.
But Tiger, who had grown up with him, sensed that something different had urred to Master. But he was not able to define what that was.
Besides, his Master was not someone who liked to save girls from trouble. Destruction had always been Masters style C just like the removal of someones arm that happened a minute ago. He didnt even hesitate a moment. He was really ruthless.
But the simple-minded Tiger seemed to have forgotten that the arm was brought off because he had acted too fast.
Shangguan Ning let out a light relief, seeing that Jing Yichen didnt react to her behavior.
She remembered that Zhao Anan had mentioned that her brother was obsessed with cleanness and he didnt like having physical contacts with other people.
Shangguan Ning felt that her anger had reduced a bit seeing the mother and daughter scared. She had been bullied by them for so many years and she had always tolerated the behaviour for her uncles sake. Jing Yichen had truly taken revenge for her sake today.
It was an awkward moment amongst the group. But Jing Yichen didnt feel that way. Instead, he turned around and calmly walked towards the elevator.
Tiger followed up like a shadow. Worried that her Aunt may take some crazy revenge on her, Shangguan Ning caught up with them too.
When the three of them were gone, Huang Xinyin burst into tears, not caring anything about her beautiful image.
Mom, help me! Im dying! It hurts so much, Mom...
Her arm really hurt a great deal. But the most important thing was that she had lost a huge face for herself.
When did Shangguan Ning the bitch, gang up with such an exquisite man who spared no efforts to defend her? He didnt hesitate a moment when it came to removing her arm!
She was such a lovely and pretty girl and he still had the heart to do that. He was more evil than a monster.
Lin Yu became so outraged that she kept gnashing her teeth. She helped her daughter into the brand-new BMW and drove away fast.She tried tofort her daughter. My dearest, just hold it for a minute. The hospital is just around the corner. That bitch will not escape this. Dont worry, she will be hurt ten times more than you are now. Lets report to your father as soon as we get home. He will know how cruel his niece is!
Although that man seemed to be in a couple outfit with Shangguan Ning, yet it seemed that they had quite a normal rtionship with each other and that they didnt seem to know each other so well. Shangguan Ning had been surprised to see that man. He was not someone to piss off, but he wouldnt be able to stand by Shangguan Nings side all the time.
As Lin Yu drove her daughter away, Shangguan Ning also followed up with Jing Yichen and waited for the elevator with him.
Shangguan Ning became a bit worried after she calmed down, though she had managed to vent out her anger.
Aunt would surely report this incident to Uncle. She wasnt worried that her Uncle would misunderstand anything. But the sharp Uncle would surely understand that Aunt had visited her to get the apartment back. A fight was going to happen for sure.
She didnt feel concerned about Aunt, only about Uncle. Uncle worked so hard outside but would have no chance to rest today when he got back home because of the fight.
It was all her fault. Had it not been her, Uncle might have lived an easier life. At least he would not need to argue with Aunt because of her.
Jing Yichen sensed Shangguan Nings low spirit. He said lightly, Was that too much?
Hearing his low and wonderful voice, Shangguan Ning was slightly taken aback. She replied after bringing herself to the present, No. I appreciated what you did.
She tried to suppress her distress and showed a smile on her tender face. Actually, I had wanted to do that for ages. But I didnt want to bring trouble for my Uncle. Otherwise I could have used the Taekwondo I picked up from Anan upon them. Although I didnt do that myself, but it has been the most relieved day of my life. Someone finally appeared and helped me. They wont dare to bully anyone around anymore!
That she assumed others authorities as her own amused Jing Yichen. He lifted his lips corner, making a delightful arch. Evils Need Other Evils to Dominate. Thats why it was natural for me to do that, not for you.
Shangguan Ning grinned. A touch of warmth arose from her heart. She replied seriously, You are a good man.
Jing Yichen didntment on that, but Tiger behind him twitched a bit.
Girl, you are too na?ve. That beautiful face of Masters had hustled numerous people. One word from him would cause pain to many people. He really shouldnt be considered a good man.
What Tiger forgot was that it was him who had made those numerous people suffer. Besides, if Jing Yichens face was that of a hustler, then his own face was of a bigger hustler!
The elevator arrived with a ringing sound. The three of them walked in. Tiger pressed the 27th floor on the top and asked in a sincere way, Which floor are you going to, Miss Shangguan? He heard what the evil woman had said and understood that the presentdy was the daughter of Deputy-Mayor Shangguan. So this was the girl Anan had presented to Master. Seemed that Master was treating her in a very different way.
As he was thinking, Tiger got a bit delighted. He showed his typical grin to Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning replied with a smile as well. Sixth, please.
The first time she met Tiger, she thought that he was a good-natured young man, one that wouldnt fight back even if he was bullied. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be someone relentless. You could tell from the fast way he finished his task C he must have done many simr things in life.
She nced at the handsome, tall man beside her. For the first time, she got a bit curious about his identity.
But she wouldnt ask what she wasnt supposed to. Besides, they were not that close with each other yet.
Zhao Anan and she were best friends, but they never pried into each others family affairs. They were in a pure friendship.
Friends without any benefits or interests involved. That was how their friendship hadsted for so long.
The elevator arrived on the sixth floor within no time.
Shangguan Ning stepped out of the elevator and expressed her gratitude again. Thank you for doing that today.

Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yichen nodded gently from inside the elevator. He replied in his usual cool tone. No problem. I dont want my fellow tennis yer bullied by anyone.
Shuangguan Ning, who had be more or less immune to his coldness, grinned brightly at him upon hearing these words.
The elevator door closed slowly, separating the two of them into two different worlds. It seemed that they were left alone in those worlds.
In the elevator, Tiger cast a surprised look at Jing Yichen. Master wasnt a man who exined. But at this moment, he was giving exnation to a woman.
While he was still astonished, Jing Yichens calm voice reached his ears. I need tennis equipment. Ask Deer to get it done. Make every Monday afternoon avable for me from now on.
Tiger replied instinctively Yes, Master.
He didnt realize what Master had said until he responded to his request.
So Master nned to y tennis formally now? Thank goodness! That was great.
This Miss. Shangguan was really a capable woman.
However...
Tiger was a straightforward person. He never asked what he was not supposed to ask. Nor did he hide what he was supposed to speak.
Master, you have nned to go to America the Monday after next week. It is likely that they found Ms. Tang Yun.
A horrible silence filled up the elevator, so horrible that it could almost choke people to death at that very next moment.
The elevator door opened with a ringing sound. The air and the light flowed in, breaking the silence.
You go there for me. If that is true, bring her back. Jing Yichen finally spoke. He still had a calm and cold look about him, but his slightly hoarse voice revealed a touch of his emotions.
He had been looking for her for so long that he almost forgotten how she looked like. Seeking her had be a habit now.
This habit that had been on for more than a decade, was broken today.
Tiger was shocked inside. Master had been persistent about Ms. Tang Yun for ten years. He never expected that Master would give it up, though numerous people had told him to.
He replied with a yes in a low tone, fearing that Master would change his mind again. Master had been suffering enough for what happened in the past and he had paid enough for that.
It was time to end it.
No sooner did Shangguan Ning arrive home, that she started to handle the issue of apartments. It couldnt be dyed any more. She needed to move out as soon as possible.
She was seeking information about various apartments when her cell phone rang.
It was from her uncle Huang Lihan. It seemed that Aunt hadnt waited for even a minute to report her.
Hello, Uncle.
Ning. A slightly aged voice came from the other side of the cell phone. It was a tone full of love and care.
Uncle! Shangguan Ning couldnt help but call him. But her voice was slightly choked. How are you recently? I havent seen you for more than a month. Are you still smoking a lot?
Im very well. Dont worry, Girl. And I have cut down on smoking as per your suggestion. Huang Lihans voice was mild with pleasantness.
What about you? Are you eating well? How is work? If you need money, let me know. Buy whatever you want. You are in a blooming age, and you should definitely dress yourself well.
I know, Uncle. I wont hesitate to tell you if I need anything. Shangguan Ning sniffed, sounding a bit spoiled.
Uncle was the only one person in the whole world with whom she could act like a spoiled child.
Whenever such moments came, she would be grateful to her grandparents for giving birth to two children. Otherwise she would have been totally alone in this world.
Therefore, she had been thinking about having two children as well.
Knowing that his niece still took him as someone to depend on, Huang Lihan felt bothforted and saddened.
This niece had always been very stubborn. She wanted to do everything herself and he was the only person she could depend on. But he had not been able to protect her well because his wife and daughterined that he favored her over them and caused her trouble every now and then.
It was his own fault. He hadnt treated her well enough and he felt guilty towards both her and his dead sister.
Maybe the best way was to find a real dependable person for Ning. She was not a young girl any more and she deserved to have someone who could love her and take care of her for the rest of her life.
Ning, it was your aunt and cousins fault today. Dont dwell on the matter, okay? I have scolded them. Huang Liyan still chose to mention the incident after some hesitation.
Shangguan Ning immediately replied with sincerity, It is okay, Uncle. It was my fault for letting my friend hurt Cousin. How is she now? Is she alright?
Your cousin is fine. She asked for that and she deserved it. She needed some pain to learn some lessons. Huang Liyan sounded displeased. He was apparently unhappy with Huang Xinyis temper.
Had she not done anything bad, Nings friend wouldnt have touched her.
However, his wife and daughter narrated the entire story to him with some exaggerated narrations. They meant that Ning had got a boyfriend and it seemed that he was a Mafia.
He had always hoped that Niece could marry someone good. He was worried that she was too na?ve and would be cheated.
Ning, who helped you today? How long have you known each other? How is he?
Shangguan Ning instantly understood what Uncle meant. She exined to him immediately, He is my colleagues brother. We just got to know each other. We dont know one another very well yet. He is a man of ethics, but is a bit impulsive. That was why he hurt Cousin today.
She disdained herself silently inside her heart. She had be so good at lying.
Impulsive was not a word to describe Jing Yichen, who had a cold stance towards everything.
Huang Lihan didntpletely believe what Niece said. But he also understood that she was a restrained girl and didnt mess around.
The best way right now was to find her a home, so that she could be protected in the future and stay away from those who nned something bad for her.
For the very first time, he started to discuss the lifes critical matter with his niece.
Ning, do you have anyone you like? What type of guys do you like? I can help you to look around a bit.
Shangguan Ning understood that Uncle was just worried about her, so she didnt feel any embarrassment upon hearing the question.
She tried tofort him. Dont worry Uncle. I am good-looking and well-educated. There will be a man who likes me.
What Huang Lihan feared most was that she was still unable to forget about Xie Zhuojun. But he didnt want to mention this man to sadden his niece. So he replied in a roundabout way, You should learn to look forward. Hold tight if you spot one. I will support you in whichever type you pick. The most important thing is that he should love you and care about you. Nothing else matters.
For some reason, the handsome, cold face of Jing Yichen shed across Shangguan Nings head.
She shook her head, thinking that she must have been too exhausted.
Now that Uncle was so concerned about her, she also hoped to find the right man as soon as possible.
At this stage, she didnt expect a deep love rtionship. She only wished for a calm, ordinary life. That would be enough.
Chapter 18 - A Trap
Chapter 18: A Trap
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Winter holidays at University of X were around the corner as New Year was approaching. The next two weeks were examination periods. Most of the courses had alreadye to an end.
The oral English ss by Shangguan Ning finished this week and the examinations were going to start next week.
She was famous both for her beauty and her teaching skills in the school. Her sses tended to be rxed and interesting. She got on well with students and everyone liked to attend her lessons. Even some students from other majors liked to sneak into her sses.
After ss on Thursday, Shangguan Ning was about to drive home, when a male student came running to her, panting.
Ms. Shangguan, the Director of Department has asked for you in the office.
Shangguan Ning didnt recognize this student, but he apparently knew her. Maybe he had been to her ss before.
Anything wrong? She asked out of instinct, for the Director never asked for teachers.
The student scratched his head and stuttered as he replied. Seems... seems that he wanted to discuss something with you about the Final Test.
The student flushed with nervousness, as if delivering a message to Shangguan Ning was an enormously important mission.
Shangguan Ning got a bit confused. Hadnt they already decided about the Final Testst month? What was the discussion for?
But she didnt think much about it. She was going to host the oral test in person and students were going to be asked to make a spontaneous speech based on the topic for her to grade them. It was a very subjective thing and maybe the Director had some words to stress upon.
Shangguan Ning thanked him, grabbed her bag and went to the Directors office.
But when she entered the office, the Director was not there. Instead, the man who was sitting on the Directors chair turned out to be the disgusting Guo Shuai.
A bad hunch cast over Shangguan Nings heart.
She was about to open the door and go out when a cracking sound arrived C the door was locked from outside.
Her heart sank into the bottom of ravine instantly.
Hearing the sharp locking sound, Guo Shuai immediately showed a savaged and lewd smile.
I told you Shangguan Ning, there will be one day when you will kneel down in front of me!
If Shangguan Ning still didnt understand what Guo Shuai was nning on, she would have been an idiot.
She was panicking with fright inside. But she was more furiouspared to fright.
But seeing Guo Shuais face, Shangguan Ning understood clearly that it was not yet the time to show anger.
She calmed herself down, trying hard to convince Guo Shuai.
Mr. Guo, I think we have a huge misunderstanding between us. Please calm down now. It has been my fault and I am apologizing to you sincerely! Im so, so sorry for being impulsive before and pissing you off. Lets talk in peace and not mess around.
Shangguan Ning lowered her own status, as long as she was able to satisfy Gao Shuai.
Haha. I have been waiting for this day for too long. No more badgering! You will definitely beg me tearfullyter!
Guo Shuai looked to be in a frenzy, totally different from his usual look of quietness.
He threw himself upon Shangguan Ning as he spoke.
Shangguan Ning had been well-prepared for his attack. Seeing that he wasing towards her this way, she quickly dodged in the other direction.
She moved fast in panic that she idently shed against the iron cab where material was kept.
A long, thin wound shed open at the back of her hand. Blood gushed out from there.
In the tensed situation, Shangguan Ning didnt feel any pain.
She fixed her eyes upon Guo Shuais movement because Guo Shuai had taken out a syringe from the drawer next to him. There was some clear liquid that filled up half of the syringe tube.
Guo Shuai seemed very confident that Shangguan Ning was not able to run away now. He observed the panicking look of his prey, enjoying the pleasure of hunting.
By this time, Shangguan Ning was certain that Guo Shuai must have been a paranoid person and his quiet behavior in everyday life was a disguise.
Guo Shuai seemed to be a timid person who often bullied the weak but bent down to the strong person. Shangguan Ning decided to show him some strength.
Guo Shuai! Do you understand that your behavior will be exposed eventually? If I am hurt even a bit today, you will never have peace in your life any more. You are already a criminal by now to be imprisoned for half of your life. You have achieved a lot today and do you think it is worth the while to ruin yourself because of me?
Haha, had I not worried about that, I would have captured you ages ago rather than today.
Having heard his words, Shangguan Ning immediately understood that Guo Shuai was not alone behind this.
Then why are you doing it today?
Who on earth hated her so much that such a filthy way was used and that even Guo Shuai had the courage to do so to her.
I can of course tell you, but it has to wait until you are mine. If Im wellforted and happen to be in a good mood, you can beg on your knees, crying hard in front of me. Then I will tell you.
Guo Shuai wasnt silly. He certainly understood that Shangguan Ning was trying to draw the secret out of him.
Seeing Shangguan Ning trying hard to stay calm in such an elegant way, Guo Shuai thought of her usual loftiness and the fact that he was about to have her. Blood immediately heated up his entire body.
That was an excellent deal C he was able to have the beauty and a huge amount of payment of one million yuan. Besides, he didnt even need to worry about consequences either, because someone else would be able to handle everything for him.
Haha, serves Shangguan Ning right who must have annoyed too many people and good that he had been given such a wonderful opportunity!
With a ferociousugh, Guo Shuai, who had been circling around Shangguan Ning for so long, finally managed to catch her arm and put the syringe into her arm directly.
The thin, strong needle went through Shangguan Nings clothes and entered her tender flesh. The transparent liquid entered her body at a high speed.
She struggled and kicked with all her strength. She used all of her force to take a huge bite on Guo Shuai and intended to kick his crotch when the transparent liquid drove out all of her strength gradually.
Within a few minutes, she copsed onto the floor, strengthless. And a strange feeling was dominating inside her body.
She understood that it was generated by the medicine, so a st of despair arose inside her heart.
As soon as she thought of what was going to happen, Shangguan Ning really wished that she could be drop dead at this moment.
However, she had no strength left at all and she started to get unconscious. Suicide at this moment was not possible at all.
Guo Shuai was very satisfied with this powerful medicine. He was internally amazed by this smart method from the person who asked him to do this deed.
At this moment, Shangguan Ning was like amb ready to be ughtered, free to be bullied in any way by anyone.
Seeing blooding out of the wound on his hand back which Shangguan Ning had taken a bite of, he got so angry that he started to beat and kick Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning cried out of pain. Red scars immediately covered her tender face, and her body started to ache enormously. She folded herself up, leaving the back exposed for Guo Shuai to beat and kick.
Although the situation was terrible, she was still able to keep a touch of sensibility. She understood that she needed to protect her fragile chest and stomach.
Luckily it was still winter and she had many clothes on her because of her weak immune system against coldness. Otherwise she would have been more seriously injured.
Guo Shuai had finished venting his anger by beating her. So he dragged her out of corner and started to strip off her clothes.
Despite being really weak, Shangguan Ning still defended herself out of instinct.
Guo Shuai pped her two more times.
Shangguan Ning cried out in pain as blood dripped out of the corner of her lips.
Guo Shuaiughed wildly at the sight of her face that was getting as bloated as a pigs head.
It waspletely silent outside the Directors office. The teachers were either at sses or at tests. No one would know what was going on inside.
Chapter 19 - Rescue
Chapter 19: Rescue
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Zhao Anan had been working as the proctor for examinations for three days in a row and she was extremely exhausted and irritated.
Working as a proctor for examination was such a boring thing that itpletely drove her crazy. She was an outgoing and lively girl who liked moving around.
After a long, dragging examination, Zhao Anan immediately ran to the office for some food to restore the strength that had already gone out of her.
However,as she was about to enter the office, she noticed a boy student craning his neck outside the Directors office. He looked nervous and apparently, he wasnt up to anything good.
A touch of suspicion arose inside her heart, she snapped, What are you lurking and sneaking there for?
The student was already quite diffident. Having heard someone calling out to him, he turned around and found that it was Shangguan Nings good friend Zhao Anan. The student got so scared that he dashed off directly, giving up the guard for Guo Shuai instantly.
Seeing him running away so fast, Zhao Anan took off and started to chase him directly without hesitation.
She was an excellent taekwondo yer and her constant tennis exercise with Shangguan Ning had also made her a strong woman, surpassing the thin, short boy in every physical way. She caught up with him within no time outside the office building.
Zhao Anan had never behaved like a teacher. She gave the student a kick without hesitation and he fell onto the ground directly. She snapped fiercely, Hand it out! Or you are expelled!
She had assumed that this student was trying to steal the examination paper. There had been too many students who came to steal the examination paper in different disguises after the examination period started.
The student, who got tripped by Zhao Anan when he was sprinting, had smashed himself upon the ground. He felt as if every piece of the bones had been scattered.
He thought that the entire thing had been exposed and that Zhao Anna already knew the truth. So in order to avoid being beaten again, he handed the key to her immediately whilst crying out loudly, I was forced! I didnt mean to set up Ms. Shangguan!
Zhao Anna got astonished. She asked anxiously, What did you say? What about Ms. Shangguan! Speak now!
She said as she gave another kick to the student.
The student was in such a pain that he cried out instantly, Ms. Shangguan is locked in the Directors office. Mr. Guo wants to rape her!
Zhao Anna felt as if her head had been banged hard. She abandoned everything else, grabbed the key, rushed back to the office and opened the door at her highest speed.
Upon reaching there, she saw that Guo Shuai was pressing Shangguan on the floor, beating her, swearing at her and stripping off her clothes.
Her eyes flushed. She sprinted towards him and gave a stomping kick at Guo Shuai.
Guo Shuai was kicked off several meters away, smashing himself against the desk corner and passed out.
Zhao Anna lifted Shangguan Ning slightly and kept calling her name in tears, Ning, are you alright? Wake up, wake up! This is Anan, please dont scare me!
Shangguan Nings hair was unkempt, face bloated. Her lips corners were bleeding constantly, and blood had created a scary red patch on her torn white sweater. Half of the thermal underclothes in flesh color, had also been stripped away. The pair of light blue jeans were now dyed with the blood spouting out of her legs. It was the only garment that was rtively intact over her entire body.
There was a moist and warm feeling on her hand that was supporting Shangguan Nings head.
She drew back her hand and found that her entire palm was covered with blood.
Zhao Anan was shocked and frightened. She who never shed a tear, couldnt resist crying out loud at this moment.
How lucky it was that she hade today. How lucky it was that she had shouted at the student out of impulse.
She kept calling her name as she held Shangguan Nings head in hands. Ning... Ning, please, wake up, wake up...
Shangguan Ning heard someone calling her name between dizzy spells.
After a long while, she tried to open her eyes and found that it was her friend Zhao Anan.
She started to lose consciousness, but still stuttered with all her strength. Hospital... medicine... hospital...
Zhao Anan caught what she said. We are going to the hospital now. Hold up, Ning!
With Shangguan Ning in one of her arms, she scooped out the cell phone and made a call.
The call went through immediately. Without hesitation, Zhao Anan shouted between sobs. Brother! We are at school. Ning is in an ident. Bring the doctor here now!
Her cousin was the first person she always thought of, whenever an incident happened. She believed that if there ever was an issue which her cousin wasnt able to solve, then no one else would be able to either.
Jing Yichen panicked inside. Zhao Anan was a girl who would never shed a tear even if the heavens crashed down. Shangguan Ning must have run into a really serious ident as Anan was crying so fiercely.
For some reason his heart squeezed. A feeling like never before had started to spread across his heart, his limbs and all over his body.
Jing Yichen abandoned the directors who were in the middle of reporting the business situation of the enterprise to him and walked towards the door of the conference room as he instructed Tiger. Get the helicopter ready. Bring the medical team and fly to University of X!
Tiger responded positively, called the helicopter and the medical team immediately.
University of X was located on the outskirts of A City, far away from Jingsheng Enterprise that was located in the city center.
However, only six minutes after Zhao Anan hung up, Jing Yichen managed to show up in front of her and Shangguan Ning.
Zhao Anan let out a sigh of relief seeing her cousin there. Then she copsed.
Knowing that Zhao Anan was well, he skipped her and came directly to Shangguan Ning.
Seeing Shangguan Ning, made his heart ache even more.
He took off his coat and wrapped around Shangguan Ning. He carefully took her up in a horizontal way, walked out of the office building and stepped into the helicopter.
Examine her. She has to be okay.
He sounded cold and an air of chill ooze out from his entire body. He had no expression on the well-silhouetted face of his.
But everyone who knew him well understood clearly that he was on the edge of bursting out in rage.
No sooner had Jing Yichen entered the office, that he understood what had happened. He was filled up with a kind of ripping rage seeing her hurt by someone else.
He never knew that she had already nted a root inside his heart.
The staff at the helicopter team and the medical team had stayed by Jing Yichens side all these years but they had never seen him holding any woman before. Nor had they seen him so furious ever.
However, the staff at the helicopter team finally understood why the doctors on call this time were all women.
They immediately put equipment on Shangguan Ning and started to examine her.
Zhao Anan felt slightly relieved when she saw her cousin taking Shangguan Ning out. She turned around and saw the half-dead Guo Shuai on the floor. She went up and gave him a violent kick, waking him up.
Take him away!
At Lady Zhaos order, Jing Yichens employees dragged him away.
When Zhao Anan boarded the helicopter, the helicopter took off and left school.
The entire University of X had started buzzing at the sight of the helicopters arrival.
Who is the lucky teacher to have a boyfriend thates in a helicopter? Damn impressive! The BMW and Benz are just nothingpared to this.
Must it be a teacher in the office building. She can also be a student. I envy that girl so much!
If someonees to pick me up in helicopter, I wont care about what he looks like and would marry him right away!
Hey, did you not see that? The man walking out of the helicopter was extremely good-looking, just like someone from the TV. I have never seen anyone so good-looking before!

Chapter 20 - Just Take the Advantage Now
Chapter 20: Just Take the Advantage Now
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning, whom every girl at University of X was jealous of, was not happy at this moment.
She felt dizzy and it hurt everywhere in her body. Even breathing was painful. But that was not the most important thing.
The most important thing was that she felt heat spreading all over her body and she was in desperate need of cooling herself down with something. So she kept stripping off her clothes to make herself feel cooler.
As a matter of fact, her clothes had almost beenpletely removed for the sake of the examination. There was only a very thin nket over her at that moment.
The female doctor-in-chief of the medical team was almost fifty years old. She was a very prestigious doctor and had a great deal of experience. She drew a conclusion just after a few minutes.
Zhao Anan had been following around all the time. She asked anxiously, How is she? Is she going to be okay?
The doctor pped her hands and replied, She will be fine. Then she asked the other doctors to bind her up with bandages before she walked out of the special examination room at the helicopter and reported to Jing Yichen.
She knew Jing Yichens way of handling things, so she put the most important point at first. The patient is out of fatal danger. The bleeding of her inner organs and head has been stopped. What she needs is a peaceful rest.
Jing Yichen nodded expressionlessly.
She is still unconscious because she was injected with powerful hallucinogen. What I can do is to try my best to reduce the side effects, but I cant clear it uppletely, unless...
The female doctor didnt continue.
Jing Yichen understood what she meant. He replied with a light tone, Relieve her pain with medicine and she herself will get through the rest.
The woman doctor nodded, turned around and walked again towards the helicopter.
Hallucinogen would cause strong sexual desire. But the rumor that people injected with it, would die without venting it out, was not true.
In the usual case, it wouldnt be a fatal issue. But it could cause a lot of difort.
Fingers tightly clenched, Jing Yichen threw a look at Guo Shuai who had been beaten unconsciousness by Zhao Anan and who had blood all over his face. Jing Yichen was trying hard to control his impulse of tossing him out of the helicopter.
A few minutester, the helicopternded on a meadow outside a very luxurious vi in the outskirt area of A City.
The medical team carried Shangguan Ning into the vi on a stretcher and came out quickly after that. The team went back to the headquarter of Jingsheng Enterprise with the helicopter team.
Guo Shuai, on the other side, was taken away by Tiger and his team. It seemed that he was going to taste extreme agony soon.
Seeing that Shangguan Ning was fine, Zhao Anan finally had her heart secured. She suddenly realized that she still had an examination to invigte, yet she was surely going to miss it unless she went back by the helicopter.
She didnt want to go back to school. Her worries would not stoppletely untill she saw Shangguan Ning wake up, with her own eyes.
Sitting by Shangguan Nings side at the edge of her bed, Zhao Anan was taken aback seeing Shangguan Ning lift the nket and start to strip her clothes off unconsciously. She immediately helped to cover her up with the nket.
Her cousin was right beside them. This was a serious matter!
Shangguan Ning had such a great figure that even women wanted to take a look at it, let alone men!
Although this cousin was more like a real brother, although he had just saved Shangguan Ning, although her cousin was a man with unusually strong self-controlling ability, she couldnt allow her best friend to be taken advantage of!
Seeing that Jing Yichen had no intentions of leaving, Zhao Anan couldnt help but re at him. Why are you still here?
No more than half an hour had passed since the incident happened and the effect of the hallucinogen in Shangguan Nings body had just started to work.
She had learnt from the doctor that it would take at least two hours before the hallucinogen would disappearpletely. Had it not been the medicine that helped to control her urges, it would have taken a much longer time.
During this period, she was definitely going to experience sexual desires.
Her cousin was pretty much aware of that fact, but he still was not leaving. Was he nning to take advantage of Shangguan Ning?
Jing Yichen ignored Zhao Anans protest. He said expressionlessly, This is my home. I can stay wherever I want. But you... why are you still here?
Annoyed, Zhao Anan was about to strike back when she suddenly realized something. She came to his side and jabbed him with her arm. Have you fallen for our Beauty?
Jing Yichen didnt say anything, but took half a step aside, avoiding Zhao Anans touch and avoid her jab.
Zhao Anan had grown up with him and knew very well that he disliked being touched by others. She had just been testing it and now she was certain.
Ha! Despising my touch but didntin when you were holding our Beauty in arms just now. Howe?
She started tough as she talked and then a lewd expression emerged on her face. She whispered, Brother, what about just... taking advantage of her right now?
She had suddenly turned into a wolf from a wolf defender.
Jing Yichen frowned. Whose side are you on, honestly?
Zhao Anan came to Shangguan Ning and covered her up with the nket that she had just kicked away.
She said with a grin, Actually, I do think you both are cute together. So, I wont disturb your woman any more!
Having said these words, she walked out of the room, leaving Jing Yichen watching over Shangguan Ning alone.
Zhao Anan knew Jing Yichen well. Had he not had any feelings towards Shangguan Ning, he would never have touched her.
It seemed that she was soon going to have a most amazing sister-inw. This was wonderful.
Shangguan Nings old clothes had been thrown away by Zhao Anan. She had changed Ning into a set of loose pajamas when they had gotten to the vi.
Jing Yichen had not worn this set of pajamas before. There was no other option because no women ever visited here. Hence, there were no women clothes here at all.
His pajamas were a bit toorge for her and because of her constant stripping, her long, slender legs as well as half of her exquisite breasts were soon exposed.
There were many bruises all over her body and they became apparent against the white, tender skin, making peoples heartache for her even more.
Jing Yichens adams apple moved and he walked up slowly towards her.
Shangguan Ning kept letting out a lustful moaning through her mouth as she was twisting and turning. The white body was getting redder and redder, just like an overripe apple.
Jing Yichen, who was usually calm and steady, found that his ability of self-control was somehow weak in this case.
He took a moment to control the restlessness inside, stretched out his arms to cover her with the nket and gave her a pitiful hug.
When Shangguan Ning felt an air of coolness around her, she took that cool body into her arms and felt instantly morefortable. Then she began to rub herself against the cool body as if wanting something more.
Jing Yicheng froze. He had a reaction somewhere down in his lower body.
He swore a short damn it in a low voice and determinedly moved the two beautiful white lotus roots like arms, off him and quickly walked out of the room.
It was winter and the temperature difference between outdoors and indoors was huge. As the chilly air wormed its way into his lungs, Jing Yichen gradually became calm again.
He thought that had he stayed on, he would have done something that he himself would have regrettedter.
He stood outside for a while before walking in again. He put the nket right for Shangguan Ning.
After all, it was winter. Even though the indoor heaters were on, she would easily catch a cold if she kept kicking off the nket.
Jing Yichen came out again after a while.
He kept repeating this behavior. But he didnt ask anyone else to take care of her instead.
Chapter 21 - So You Don’t Recognize Me After Waking Up?
Chapter 21: So You Dont Recognize Me After Waking Up?
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Two hourster, the hallucinogen affecting Shangguan Ning disappeared finally. She ran out of energy and got too tired and fell asleep.
Jing Yichen sat by her side and silently watched this woman who had suddenly intruded into his life.
The swelling on her face had gone down after being treated with the best medicine. What remained were purple-red colored bruises. But they showcased the agony she had suffered even more clearly against the translucent skin of hers.
She undoubtedly was a good-lookingdy, but he had met many women who were even more beautiful.
However, she gave him a different feeling. She made himfortable and it seemed that he was happy when he was with her, even though they didnt exchange a word.
That was how he felt even when he had met her for the first time.
At that time, he was against this strange emotion and had tried hard to cover it up with his cold behaviour.
Because he always thought that someone like him didnt need love and excess love would be nothing but a burden and his achillesheel.
However, all his sensibility was gone after he had gotten to know that she was hurt.
They had known each other for only a few days and had met just a couple of times. Howe he cared so much about her?
Jing Yichen didnt know why and he didnt need to know why.
As long as he understood what he wanted, then nothing else mattered.
The following morning when Shangguan Ning woke up, she was in a dizzy,dreamy state for a long time.
It took her a long while before she remembered what happened the day before.
She remembered briefly that Zhao Anan rescued her in the end and there was nothing else that she could remember.
She felt pain all over her body. It must have been the result of Guo Shuais violence the day before.
She lifted the nket and was startled at the clear sight of a male pajamas on her.
What?
So she lost her virginity yesterday after all?
But Shangguan Ning denied this conjecture directly.
Although she felt pain all over her body, yet she felt nothing weird in her lower body.
She let out a sigh of relief and started to nce around her environment.
The room was huge, simple yet exquisite and luxurious, just like a royal pce.
What was this ce?
Zhao Anans home?
But she wouldnt possibly have given her a set of male pajamas if this was her home.
Shangguan Ning was suddenly reminded of Zhao Anans calling on her Brother between tears when she was almost unconscious.
Could it be... Jing Yichens home?
So the pajamas were....
Oh God! What had happened?
Shangguan Ning closed her eyes in tiredness, trying tofort her heart.
In the quiet room, the sound of light footsteps arose. She opened her eyes instantly.
A familiar, handsome figure walked in and came near the bed without hesitation. He stretched out his long and beautiful hand and felt her forehead.
A momentter, Jing Yichen removed his hand and said in a low voice, You have recovered well. The fever is gone too. Would you like to eat anything?
Shangguan Ning was taken aback.
What was going on?
Why was Jing Yichen treating her in a way as if they were close, as if they had... been living together for many years.
He was still expressionless, but his tone was gentle, different from the coldness before.
That made Shangguan Ning feel a bit weird.
Jing Yichen had noticed her confusion. So he smiled at her. Whats wrong? You dont even recognize me after waking up? His tone sounded a bit pampering, one kind that could hardly be noticed.
His smile was clean and warming. His teeth were white and neat with a vor of sunshine that lunged directly into the bottom of peoples heart.
Shangguan Nings heart hopped irresistibly at the sight of his smile that she saw for the first time.
Evil!
She let out a light sigh inside her heart.
But she had to admit that Jing Yichen like this, was hardly resistible.
No, I just feel that you are a bit different from before. Shangguan Ning said softly.
Her voice was hoarse and dried, so horrible like a cawing crow. She was startled.
Jing Yichen passed her a ss of water, stretched out his hand to her back and helped her up to lean against the soft pillow.
Drink some water first. Thene and eat breakfastter.
Shangguan Ning was indeed thirsty. But the weird behavior of Jing Yichen distracted her totally.
She was not used to Jing Yichens touch. The warmth of his hand reached her back through the thin pajamas, spreading all over her body like electrical currents.
She took over the water stiffly, drank up half of the ss and felt much more clear-minded than before. But the more clear-minded she became, the more unrealistic everything seemed to her.
After a moment of hesitation, she asked carefully, How... long have I been unconscious for?
Jing Yichen burst intoughter. He understood that Shangguan Ning wasnt yet used to this kind of behavior from him.
Actually, Jing Yichen had been trying hard to control himself. He was afraid that too sudden a change would scare Shangguan Ning, who had just been through an enormous shock.
The thing he wanted to do most right now was to take her in arms, kiss her and caress her.
But he couldnt do anything.
There was no need to hurry. Shangguan Ning, you would be mine for the rest of your life and no one would ever bully you again.
He pressed down his emotions and tried to answer in a peaceful tone. Fourteen hours, not yet a day.
Shangguan Ning didnt let out a sigh of relief, but frowned slightly instead hearing the answer.
It had been less than one day and Jing Yichen had changed so much? Had anything happened that she didnt know about?
Her head was filled with questions. She was in desperate need of someone who could answer her puzzles. Apparently, Jing Yichen wasnt an ideal candidate.
Mr. Zhao... is this your home? Is Anan in?
Yes, it is my home. Anan went to school early in the morning. She should be back soon. Jing Yichen had a powerful ability of self-control. He got back to his coldness in order to make Shangguan Ning feel morefortable. But a touch of warmth still remained with the tone.
This behavior of Jing Yichens was what Shangguan Ning was used to. But his hot-and-cold behavior truly confused her.
However, Shangguan Ning was feeling very tired and her wounds ached a great deal after the anesthesia had worn off. It made her feel exhausted, even though she was up for only a little while and had spoken a few words.
But Jing Yichen didnt want her to sleep any more. I will get someone to deliver the breakfast to you. You need to eat something before you sleep again.
Saying these words, he walked out immediately.
After a while, a forty-year-old woman with a chubby and friendly face came in with the food cart.
She greeted Shangguan Ning politely. Morning Ms. Shangguan. Im one of the servants here. Master has asked me to deliver the breakfast to you.
Shangguan Ning smiled at her as she leaned against the pillow feebly. Good morning. Thank you!
She also felt that she needed to eat something, otherwise she wouldnt be able to recover fast.
The servant set up a small food table on the bed proficiently for her, and ced porridge, milk, and some digestive snacks and side dishes on the table.
Ms. Shangguan, please have a taste of it and see whether you like them or not. I can change them if you dont feel like eating them.
Its okay. Thanks! All is good. Shangguan Ning wasnt being courteous. Those dishes that gave out very light scent were delicate and nutritious. Apparently, they had been prepared specially for her.
Chapter 22 - Is she Your Woman?
Chapter 22: Is she Your Woman?
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
A wave of warm stream flowed through the bottom of Shangguan Nings heart.
She understood that it must have been prepared as ordered by Jing Yichen. He was so... unexpectedly caring.
How long had it been since she was taken care of, by someone else? It must have been many years ago.
She didnt have much appetite, but still tried to force some food down. The dishes were really delicious, which made her feel less sad.
When the food table was taken away, she took her medicine and fell asleep again.
Jing Yichen was having breakfast at the dining table in the living room. He listened to the report about Shangguan Nings food habit from Aunt Wong, who had been serving her.
Ms. Shangguan eats everything. It seems that she isnt particr about food. She tasted every side dish, drank up the milk and finished half a bowl of porridge.
Jing Yichen nodded slightly. He knew that Shangguan Ning wasnt particr about food. She had enjoyed her meal at their first meeting and she never wasted food.
Prepare some chicken soup, fish soup and rib soup for lunch and add some vored dishes for her to choose from.
Aunt Wong answered with a yes courteously and returned to the kitchen with a shocked expression on her face.
Who on earth was this Ms. Shangguan? Master had not only brought her to the vi, but also cared so much about her diet.
She had been at Masters service for more than a decade now. This cold Master had never paid so much attention to anybody!
It seemed that she should really provide great service to thisdy. It was best not to piss off this Goddess.
Jing Yichen made a call after breakfast.
Mu Qing, I have got a patient here. I will send the driver to pick you upter.
Mu Qing on the other side of the phone was apparently still sleeping when he was woken up by this uncourteous call. He was about to ask more about the patients situation when the buzzing sound came from the other side of the phone.
He swore a damned ice-cube in a low voice and got up instantly to put on clothes. He didnt dy getting ready by even a second.
Jing Yichen had just hung up the phone when Tiger walked in.
How was it?
Some gangster dressed up as police had made the deal with Guo Shuai. He had received one million yuan in his ount the day before yesterday. It could have been an order from ck-Red Association.
ck-Red Association? Jing Yichen frowned. How did she get involved with ck-Red Association?
Yes, Master. But ck Wind, the Deputy Head of ck-Red Association didnt admit ordering it when we contacted them today.
Get the car ready. We will go to the headquarter of ck-Red Association in half an hour.
Yes, Master!
Tiger responded, turned around and set off for the preparation.
Ten minutester, a tall, handsome yet a dandy man dressed in branded clothes walked in.
He cried with a voice full of vitality, as he entered. Im here, Master Jing. Where is the patient?
Jing Yichen came out of the room with a cold look on face. If you dare to talk in a voice louder than this, I will toss you out of the ce.
Mu Qing instantly flung aside his self respect.
He whispered, No, no, please dont, Master Jing. Dont toss me out! My grandpa is waiting for your investment and I should really kiss your ass now. Otherwise the old man will ask me to marry the ugly one from Family Yang.
He said as he threw himself at Jing Yichens mercy.
Jing Yichen had been used to his behavior. He didnt even blink and walked straight towards Shangguan Nings room.
Mu Qing smirked and followed him.
As he entered the room and found Shangguan Ning lying in the bed, he waspletely shocked.
It was not until he rubbed his eyes with his hand numerous times that he found the woman in bed was still there. He wanted to be certain that he wasnt hallucinating.
Mu Qing gasped. He pointed at Shangguan Ning in bed. Your woman?
Not yet. Jing Yichen had a calm expression on his face and no intention of exining anything to him.
The sun is rising from the west now?
Just check her health!
Seeing that Jing Yichen was on the verge of bursting a vein in anger, Mu Qing immediately controlled the burning me of gossip in his heart.
He felt Shangguan Nings pulse, flipped her eyelids and nodded at Jing Yichen.
Mu Qing was careful with his actions. Shangguan Ning didnt wake up, but just twitched her eyebrows and fell asleep again.
Jing Yichen followed Mu Qing out of the room and sat down in the living room. He asked, How is she?
Mu Qing still couldnt resist, even though he tried hard. She is a beautiful one, but there are even more beautiful women everywhere. Why did you lose yourself to her so fast?
I am calling your grandpa now and telling him that you are more than willing to marry Ms. Yang.
Oh, oh please! I will tell you about her health, okay?! Ms. Yang was Mu Qings nightmare. She was not someone to joke about.
Your woman bled a great deal and was injected with a hallucinogen. She might need to rest in bed for three to five days. Her wounds arent a big deal, but watch out for the wound on her head which shouldnt be touched by water. I suggest that you should not take any couple baths for the next few days.
She has a strong body. I will prescribe her some medicines to eat and to apply on the wound. She should be back on her feet with good treatment after a couple of weeks. It should not be hard for you to wait until then to change her into a real woman.
He was able to tell Shangguan Nings physical quality by just feeling her pulse, including the fact that she was a virgin. Other people might have gasped hearing these words.
But Jing Yichen only nodded slightly.
Mu Qing was born in a family of doctors practicing Chinese medicine. Lord Mu was an old Chinese medicine doctor, famous both at home and aboard. He was not only a highly-skilled Chinese medicine doctor, but also had great knowledge of western medicines. He travelled across different western countries when he was young and had brought back many dying patients bybining both Chinese and western medicines together. His reputation of bringing life from death had already been known everywhere and numerous patients came to his door every day for help.
Family Mu hospital, which was a private hospital of Family Mu, was founded by Lord Mu. Family Mu was a big one, but among the younger generations, Mu Qing had turned out to be the most promising family member to carry on the family legacy.
He had been by his grandpas side since he was very young. He was not only gifted but also interested in medicine. He was 31 years old now and had inherited every skill his grandpa had possessed. He was able to cure all kinds of serious diseases. A small injury like that of Shangguan Nings, was something he would be able to cure even with his eyes closed.
That was why Jing Yichen had asked him here. It was an emergency the day before and he had been worried that picking up Mu Qing yesterday from his home would have taken up too much time. So he had chosen to bring the medical team of Jingsheng Enterprise instead.
Mu Qing had been a genius since he was young. He was able to remember, at a single nce, everything from medical books, which gave ordinary people nothing but headache. Therefore, he had much spare time to y around. But when he grew up, he realized that nothing was fun and everything around was about work and responsibility.
Therefore, the biggest fun of his life was gossip.
He was simply not able to control his own curiosity seeing a beautifuldy, who had been tormented by hallucinogen to such a degree, in the bedroom of Jing Yichen who had never been close to ady.
Brother Jing... Mu Qings eyes narrowed to a thin slit. He cried with a soft baby sound.
Jing Yichens ears twitched hearing Mu Qings calling him like that. He almost choked on the tea that had just gone into his mouth.
Brother Yichen...
Is someone here? Bring Master Mu to Family Mus hospital and tell his grandpa that his grandson is really sick.
Mu Qing immediately went back to his normal tone. He scolded with dignity, Jing Yichen! Just look at the way you are treating me. I came all the way here to check upon your woman and you are returning my kindness with ingratitude. Oh god, where is the justice?

Jing Yichen couldnt stand it any more. He said to Tiger who was next to him, Tiger, lets go now.
Someone was making so much noise that his head hurt.
Mu Qing followed him. He kept nagging him fearlessly, Hey, Chen. Where did you get this big beauty? Even the scar on her face doesnt mar her beauty .
And where were you when someone drugged her? The worst part was that you would rather make her get through the suffering of the drugs than sacrifice yourself for her. How could you have left her suffering there alone?
Chen, do you need me to feel your pulse? I almost believe that there must be something wrong with your physical condition, otherwise how did you manage to never touch any woman for so many years?
Tiger had brought the car in front and Jing Yichen was about to get in when Mu Qing shamelessly got in first.
When he just entered the car, Zhao Anan sprinted there like a st of swooshing wind.
Brother, I seem to have seen that goddamned Mu just now. Where is he?
Hearing her voice, Mu Qing immediately started to worm himself under the car seat as if he were burning in fire. He also started to pull Jing Yichens trousers pleadingly.
Jing Yichen replied without changing the expression, He is checking out your friend.
Zhao Anan threw a suspecting look at her cousin who had an expressionless face and said with doubt in her voice, You wait here and I will get in and check it up.
Jing Yichen nodded. Okay.
That useless doctor better not hurt my Beauty! She said as she turned around and started to walk into the vi.
But the moment she turned around, the car went off. Mu Qings handsome face popped out of the car window as he whistled and shouted annoyingly, Zhao Anan, you tomboy! Catch me if you can! Bite me if you can!
Zhao Anan got so pissed that she dashed off immediately to run after the car. But of course, she was not able to catch up with it. So the only thing she could do was to helplessly watch her enemy fading away in the dust.
She angrily stomped her feet and swore a few words before turning around and entering the vi.
She was still thinking about the injured Shangguan Ning. She had not woken up in the morning when she left.
Shangguan Ning woke up because she got too thirsty.
The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Zhao Anans worried face.
Anan. Her voice was still hoarse, but she sounded happy.
Ning, how are you feeling? Does it still hurt? Zhao Anan asked with concern as she held Shangguan Nings thin hands.
She felt roughness on her hand. She looked down and found that there was a dreadfully shocking scar over the back of Shangguan Nings hand.
She couldnt help but swear fiercely, That bastard goddamned Guo, I will definitely make him suffer!
She had just finished these words when she realized that she had just mentioned something Shangguan Ning might be embarrassed by. She apologized immediately, Ning, I didnt mean that. Please dont over think. Nothing happened yesterday. Just try forgetting about it.
Shangguan Ning held Zhao Anans hands tightly and a smile hovered over her face. You little fool, that incident had nothing to do with you. Instead, Im very thankful to you. If you had note yesterday in time, I wouldnt have been able to talk with you lying here right now. Anan, thank you so much for saving me, thank you so much!
She remembered most of what happened yesterday. If Zhao Anan had not arrived in time, the consequence would have been unimaginable. She was here safe and sound was all because of Zhao Anans help, whom she was grateful to, beyond words could describe.
She saw that Shangguan Ning hadnt been affected by the incident so deeply since she started talking about it herself. Zhao Anan let out a sigh of relief in her heart. And then she started to talk about the sequence of yesterdays events.
...I grabbed the key from that person and entered the office. I saw that scumbag Guo bullying you. So I gave him a hard kick that made him pass out directly. It was a good thing that I was being nosy and came in time, so that Guo didnt seed in anything. But why was he so cruel as to beat your face to such an exaggerated degree!
Shangguan Ning had little memory of these things. She knew that Zhao Anan came right in time and what she remembered more was that Zhao Anan, who never cried, burst into tears at the sight of her.
She didnt know how to express her gratitude except for holding Zhao Anans hands tightly.
She knew was that Zhao Anan was her lucky star.
She wished that she was able to bring good luck to Zhao Anan as well!
Zhao Anan, who was a carefree girl didnt sense Shangguan Nings emotions. In her opinion, saving Shangguan Ning was something unquestionable. The only thing she regretted at this moment was that she had not arrived earlier, so that she could have just exterminated that scourge, Guo Shuai.
She was still in the middle of mumbling and nagging, Oh haha, you know what? My brother reached us within a few minutes after I hung up from the other side of A City. I was so amazed!
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. This was an exaggeration . A few minutes? That was impossible. Come on, did he arrive on a ne?
Seeing Shangguan Nings expression of disbelief, Zhao Anan exined eagerly, Really just in a few minutes! Oh, yes, my brother came by a helicopter. And, you know what? The news burst out in the entire campus. Everyone was talking about the helicopter yesterday. So many girls were so jealous... oh yes. It was published in the newspaper, too. I will ask Aunt Wong to show it to youter...
Shangguan Ning was only able to catch the word helicopter. She never heard the other things Zhao Anan said.
He really went to the school on a helicopter!
Her heart skipped a beat but got back to normal instantly again.
She didnt think that she was important enough for him to go to this length.
She sighed with relief seeing Zhao Anan who looked so excited and lively.
The helicopter must havee because of Zhao Anan. After all, it was Anan who made the call yesterday and Jing Yichen must have assumed that his little sister had run into some ident. That was why he made such a big move.
...Here, I have brought you a set of my clothes. You can put it onter. I helped you change yesterday, because there arent any woman clothes here. Sorry to have to let you wear my brothers clothes. Oh yes, my brother carried you all the way to the helicopter. You know what, he doesnt even allow me to touch him ever, but he didnt hesitate to carry you up! He must have fallen for you. He was taking care of you yesterday. What a rare, wonderful man! Ning, do you want to at least consider, being with my brother?
Shangguan Ning, who was in the middle of drinking water, choked at her words.
So, the cool body who was holding her yesterday, in her heated dream was actually... him?
Oh, damn!
Even though the memory wasnt very clear, she did remember worming herself into the cool body all the time and refusing to let him go.
Oh, damn. That must have been him. This was too disgraceful!
No wonder he was acting a bit weird in the morning. It must have been because she had thrown herself on himst night.
At this moment, Shangguan Ning wanted so much to push herself into the ground. Luckily Jing Yichen wasnt here, otherwise she would be feeling even more ashamed.
She grabbed hold of Zhao Anans arm and said eagerly, Anan, can you repeat everything that happened yesterday without omitting any details!
She was really worried that she had done something unpleasant yesterday, something she was not able to remember.
Zhao Anan was in an unexpectedly good mood, so she repeated everything in detail to her.
Shangguan Ning had aplicated expression on her face after the story.
She owed Jing Yichen so much and she wasnt able to repay him in any way.
Good that Zhao Anan was here. He must have offered to help her for his little sisters sake. Well, she would just focus on repaying Zhao Anan in the future.

Jing Yichen had also dealt with Guo Shuai, saving her a great deal of trouble.
Shangguan Ning hated Guo Shuai so much. He was a maniac, narrow-minded man and she hoped that he would receive the punishment he deserved. Otherwise he would probably think about another trap after thest n failed. She mustnt wait until she fell into another trap before she fought back, otherwise it would be toote by then.
Shangguan Ning remembered clearly what Guo Shuai had said, indicated that he was not alone and that someone was behind him.
Guo Shuai didnt know anyone in the campus who had a powerful background and no one would help him without any reason unless that person was her enemy and wanted to destroy herpletely in such a vulgar manner.
Shangguan Rouxue was the one person who had a bad rtionship with her. So did Aunt and Cousin.
But she didnt want to believe that they had something to do with this matter.
When she recovered, she was going to ask Guo Shuai herself who on earth backed him up!
Zhao Anan knew from Jing Yichen that Guo Shuai performed that deed with someone backing him up. But Jing Yichen was already investigating whoever was behind the whole thing .
Seeing that Shangguan Ning didnt look so well, Zhao Anan wasnt sure if she should tell her about the updated news she had heard.
What is it, Anan? Do you have anything else you want to tell me? Shangguan Ning could tell that Zhao Anan was hesitating. She was a girl without any hidden agenda, so everything showed clearly on the face.
Zhao Anan thought for a second before spilling the truth. She was going to know that sooner orter anyway. School... fired us both.
What! Shangguan Ning got so startled that she sat up. Why?
Your crime is to have indecent couple rtionship in campus whilst mine is that I was off duty and abused students.
I didnt! The school is making a false charge against us. It isnt what it looks like! Shangguan Ning was very pissed. The school was being unfair and helping Guo Shuai too. Had the school been involved with this incidence as well?
Anan, you have been fired because of me. I will exin to the school. They cant fire you. You had no other choice in that situation.
Of course, Zhao Anan knew that Shangguan Ning was wronged. She was pissed as well. But she didnt have much remorse about her being fired by the school.
Ning, dont worry. If you want to go back to school, I can ask my brother. He can seed in anything in A City. As for me, you dont need to worry about it. I had nned to leave school since ages. Working as a teacher doesnt suit me and I better stay away from the next generation.
Shangguan Ning shook her head. She mustnt trouble Jing Yichen any more. She should handle this matter herself.
Anan, you dont need to ask your brother for help about my going back to school. I have an idea.
Zhao Anan was about to say something when Shangguan Ning stopped her. You have helped me so much. As for the rest, I will do it myself!
Hmm, okay. Call me anytime you need help. Come, let me apply the medicine .
As Zhao Anan was keeping Shangguan Ningpany and helping her to apply the medicine, Jing Yichen, together with Mu Qing and Tiger, went to the Underground City.
Mu Qing tagged along, because he didnt want to miss such an exciting thing.
Jing Yichen hadnt agreed in the beginning. Butter, Mu Qing scooped out a silver needle from his bag and said, I have a secret weapon. One shot, any secret you want will be out!
Jing Yichen thought that it might help, so he brought him along.
Underground City wasnt actually located under the ground. It was a luxurious night club in the city center.
There were two floors in the nightclub. The first floor was an entertainment area whilst the second was a casino, which was the famous Underground City known amongst gangsters. The headquarters of ck-red Association was located here.
ck-red Association was one of the top-notched gang and had be extremely powerful in the past two years. Their director and leader C ck Knife had made all of this possible.
ck Knife was almost fifty years old. But he was getting more and more powerful and influential. Any gangster would politely address him as Lord Knife when they met him.
He was a ruthless, cruel man. As long as he was paid enough, he dared to do anything. Anyone who heard of Lord Knife would shiver at his name. No one wanted to be his target.
However, when his follower told him that someone called Jing Yichen was here to see him, this mighty Lord knife got so frightened that he dropped and broke his treasured hundred year-old baro teapot.
He kicked away the big-breasted girl who was making himfortable, pulled up his pants and walked outside. He swore fiercely, What goddamned luck! I will behead anyone who has annoyed this living King of Hell!
When Jing Yichen came to the second floor of Underground City, there were already a row of ck-clothed followers standing along the corridor of Underground City.
Everyone was standing straight but they bowed to a 90 degree when they saw himing. They called out loudly, Wee to Underground City, Master Jing!
Tiger behind Jing Yichen didnt react, but Mu Qing was startled.
He had been to the casino at Underground City but such a situation was beyond his experience!
Jing Yichen ignored them and walked ahead steadily.
A short, strong man came to Jing Yichen with his back bowed. He smiled sincerely and said, Wee, Master Jing. ck Knife is honoured. You havent been here in so long. I missed you so much!
The row of followers standing along the corridor gasped.
Lord Knife, who was so influential and fierce among gangsters, suddenly had be so courteous to a young man! No one would ever want to believe that!
Jing Yichen replied with a light Hmm and continued to walk ahead.
They entered a spaciouspartment room and before ck Knife was able to seat himself down, Jing Yichen started with a cold voice.
I want to know who sent you thetest order.
Master Jing, please dont put me in such a dilemma. I dare not break any rules in the gangs...! ck Knife was dripping with cold sweat. He swore at the people who epted the order and came up with an awkward answer.
An important rule among the gangs was that the orders should be absolutely confidential, otherwise the victims who knew about the enemy would start taking revenge crazily and gangsters would not be able to do the deed on another viin any more.
Jing Yichen was silent. An air of coldness started toe out of his body, making even Mu Qing next to him very ufortable.
ck Knife couldnt help but shiver at the thought of the fierceness Jing Yichen had possessed before.
He wasnt refusing to tell him about the sender, but he just wanted to drag on a bit so that Jing Yichen would be able to understand that he wasnt in an easy business either.
Refusing to tell about the sender didnt happen all the time. The sender must have got a super bad luck when Jing Yichen was the one who asked about him. ck-red Association wouldnt be affected at all anyway.
Ten years ago, the entire gang had been turned upside down by Jing Yichen, who was trying to find a woman. Many brothers had died and even he had almost gone out of the world.
It took ck-red Association many years to get back to how it used to be. But they had hardly taken a breath when this living King of Hell came again to wring their neck.

ck Knife hadnt spend the past years in vain. He knew exactly how to handle this matter. So after a short while, he reached apromise with Jing Yichen and sent someone to look into the matter instantly.
Within no time, deputy director ck Wind was brought in.
ck Knife only needed to ask a few questions to be certain that ck Wind had epted the order privately. It was forbidden to take private orders at ck-red Association and no one dared to ept them usually. The reason why ck Wind had taken such a risk to ept this private offer was mainly because the temptation was quite huge, but then so was the risk.
Jing Yichen spoke coldly. Who gave the order?
ck Wind nced at him and replied scornfully, Who are you little boy? You better go back home to your mom rather than ask me questions!
Jing Yichen was still expressionless. He wasnt provoked by ck Winds words. Instead, he said coldly to Tiger, Make him talk!
A grin showed on Tigers good-natured face and the invincible ck Wind got caught without even realising it. Within a second, his arm and chin were broken.
However, ck Wind, who had been in life-and-death battles, didnt utter a single sound. With his teeth clenched, he put himself at the total mercy of Tiger.
Jing Yichen knew that no one was able to get through Tigers torture. But if the person happened to be a stubborn one, then the work would be time-consuming.
He didnt want to waste any time.
Get back here, Tiger. Your turn, Mu Qing!
Mu Qings eyes sparkled. His admiration towards Jing Yichen went a level higher.
Hearing Jing Yichens calling, he bowed his back to ny degree like those followers. Yes, Master Jing!
He scooped out the silver needle and looked at ck Wind, whose arm was broken. He seemed to pity him a great deal.
Mu Qing spotted an acupoint and slightly pierced the needle in it.
As the long silver needle went in, ck Wind, whose lips had been tightly sealed, suddenly burst into a dreadful cry. His followers in the room were totally scared at the sound of this dreadful cry.
Then the second needle went in. Now ck Wind couldnt hold it any more. He let out a dreadful cry and said, I confess, I confess, no more, please!
Mu Qing nodded in satisfaction. Oh well, only non-humans are able to get through the third needle. So you are a human after all! With these words, he turned to Jing Yichen who was calm and expressionless.
Everyone couldnt help but turn to look at Jing Yichen.
Could this young-looking man have gone through the third needle?
Seeing ck Wind, who was twitching with cramps in pain, ck Knife couldnt help but curse silently in his heart. This living King of Hell has updated his torturing skills!
Within no time, Jing Yichen got the answer he wanted. Then he left Underground City with Tiger and Mu Qing.
It was almost noon when they got back to the vi.
No sooner had Mu Qing entered the door, that a figure lunged at him.
He took off from there without a moment of hesitation.
Post that, a womans screaming and a mans mourning sound were echoing across the entire vi.
A smile hovered at Shangguan Nings lips corners. She was leaning slightly against the white, leather sofa in the living room.
She had heard Zhao Anan talking about Mu Qing the entire morning. That man must have been the one.
Jing Yichen caught sight of Shangguan Nings quiet smile, the moment he stepped into the living room.
The warm sunshine reflected on her slightly pale face and the smile seemed to have the ability to melt frozen snow.
His heart started to beat very fast.
He couldnt help but approach her and spoke in a soft voice, Very happy?
Shangguan Ning came back to herself and looked at this handsome man in front of her. She nodded smilingly. Anan is the source of my happiness.
Why are you out here? You are badly injured and you need to lie down.
Its alright. These are small injuries. I asked Anan to help me get up ande out. I am not that spoiled...
She had not even finished her words when Jing Yichen scooped her up into his arms horizontally.
Shangguan Ning let out a cry of surprise. She got so shocked that she almost forgot how to breathe.
Lie down in bed for two more days. If the doctor allows you to get out after the examination, then you will.
She could feel the fragrance emanating from his body when she was in his arms. She was even able to feel his bodys temperature and hear his strong heartbeat.
Hisrge hands were clutching her thighs, holding her with a touch of gentle warmth.
Shangguan Ning flushed immediately. She stuttered, I... I can walk. You... can put me down...
Seeing her flush made Jing Yichen happy. He refused to put her down.
But it was such a short distance between the bedroom and the living room that he felt that he hade to the bed after taking just a few steps.
He put her down carefully but reluctantly and asked her to lie down properly.
Do you want me to keep youpany and talk for a bit?
His voice was unusually gentle, sounding sexy and alluring.
Shangguan Nings heart started to beatpletely out of control.
She calmed herself and waited until the warmth on her face faded away before she looked up and attempted to speak in a normal tone, Im good, thank you. And... thank you for yesterday too!
Jing Yichenughed lightly and replied with a hmm in a low voice.
His eyes, which used to be cold and freezing, were full of warmth and were smiling at this moment. They seemed to be the whirlpool that made people want to go inside involuntarily.
Todays Jing Yichen was not normal. And she herself, in Shangguan Nings opinion, was not normal either.
She wasnt someone who judged people by their looks. Nor was she someone who fell for people easily.
Could it have been the sequ of the drug?
She finally came up with a reasonable exnation after thinking for a while.
Seeing Jing Yichens handsome face that was able to make everyone fall for him, Shangguan Ning suddenly realized that if he had always been so warm and gentle like right now rather than cold and distant like before, he would be irresistible for anyone.
And she wasnt an exception either.
Jing Yichen had noticed that Shangguan Ning was staring at him. He raised his lips corners slightly and spoke with a voice that sounded like a beautiful instrument. What is it? You arent even blinking.
Shangguan Ning sensed that he was teasing her. She wasnt annoyed. Instead, she replied to him with a light chuckle, I always thought I am someone who never judges people by their looks. But it is hard for me not to do that right now.
It basically meant that she was saying that he was good-looking.
No one had ever praised him in this manner. She had invented something new again.
Jing Yichen was in a good mood, so he also spoke in an indulgent way. You have also made it difficult for people not to judge you by your looks.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but feel her own face. She thought that Jing Yichen was just being courteous to her.
He, who drove a sports car worth tens of millions of yuan and owned his own helicopter, must havee from a family with an extremely outstanding background. What women had he not seen yet?
Her own looks was far from striking.
She shook her head lightly and discontinued the topic.
Sometimes she spoke without thinking. She shouldnt keep praising a man for his look, otherwise he might assume that she had some other intention.
It suddenly became very quiet in the room. Jing Yichen was not a talkative man and Shangguan Ning had no intention of talking much either. But neither of them felt that it was an awkward thing.
They didnt know each other well, but why did they have a feeling that they had known each other for a very long time?
At this thought, she was suddenly reminded that she didnt even know his name yet.

Shangguan Ning felt ashamed. He had helped her so much, yet she still didnt know his name.
She was still hesitating whether she should ask him or not, when Zhao Anan pulled Mu Qing into the room. He had dust and dirt all over his face.
Ning, I just caught a stupid doctor to check your pulse!
Shangguan Ning giggled, yet stopped immediately when she sensed that it might not be a good idea.
Zhao Anan must be the only person who thought that getting a stupid doctor here to check her health was a reasonable thing.
But she believed that Zhao Anan would never y a joke with her health.
Shangguan Ning stretched out her arm and said to Mu Qing smilingly, Thank you in advance, Doctor Mu.
You know me? Mu Qing, who had dust and dirt all over his face, was still charismatic and elegant.
He grinned, showing the neat and white teeth. The tomboy has called me a stupid doctor. Do you still dare to allow me to check you up?
I dont know you, but I have heard Anan mention you before. And, I trust you! Shangguan Ning nodded seriously. Actually, she was just trusting Zhao Anan but the words came out before she could change them.
What pleased a doctor most was that the patient trusted him. Mu Qing was no exception.
He threw a nce at Jing Yichen sitting beside the bed. Seeing that Jing Yichen had no expression on face or the intention of mentioning his early visit to her, Mu Qing ced his two fingers upon her jade-white wrist.
Mu Qing checked both of Shangguan Nings wrists this time. He got a bit surprised after a few minutes.
You are good at recovering! You should continue to exercise after you are fully recovered. But dont move about for the next few days. Eat and sleep well and you will be fine soon.
Mu Qing could tell what medicine Shangguan Ning had used in the morning through its light scent in the room. And he was also pretty aware of its effects.
Zhao Anan didnt sense anything strange, but Shangguan Ning did.
Had Doctor Mu examined me earlier as well? How would he have known that she was recovering if he hadnt checked her up before.
Mu Qing pped his head C oh no, his tongue had slipped again.
But that shouldnt be a secret, should it?
Oh yes, I checked you up this morning. Your physical condition is very good.
Shangguan Ning looked at Jing Yichen instinctively, who nodded lightly. Mu Qing is a skilled doctor. So I got him here to check your condition.
Shangguan Ning replied gratefully, Thank you!
Although Zhao Anan had called Mu Qing a stupid doctor, she was pretty aware of Mu Qings excellent medical skills. She spoke without any courtesy, Hey Mu, get your traditional scar-removing cream here right now. if any scar is left on my beautys body, I will not spare you!
Mu Qing sneered, ignoring her totally. Then he turned around to grab Jing Yichens legs, but he dodged quickly.
My good brother, please bring me along if you are doing anything fun as this morning. I will definitely behave better than today!
Hearing that there was something fun going on, Zhao Anan instantly skipped joking about his Good Brother thing. She asked immediately, What fun? I want to go too!
Jing Yichen threw a cold look at Mu Qing, who instantly shut his mouth. He seemed to know that he had said something wrong.
He, out of instinct, didnt want Shangguan Ning to know about those filthy affairs.
She as a single girl wouldnt be a match against the enemy who was so cruel and fierce.
Those people behind the incident were to be left to him, to handle.
Time for lunch, lets go.
Jing Yichen said lightly, lifting his legs and started to walk outside.
Mu Qing followed behind him. Zhao Anan stomped and mumbled something in an unreconciled tone and went to help Shangguai Ning get down.
Although there were several bruises and small wounds on Shangguan Ning, yet she was able to bear the pain which wasnt that serious. But the wound on her head still ached a great deal.
I can walk, Anan. Its okay.
Dont be stubborn! I know your wound pretty well. I changed the clothes for you yesterday. You shoulde back and lie down after lunch. My job is to take good care of you. See, I can look after people too! My mom will get really happy if she knows about it. Maybe she will get you a red packet of gratitude.
Shangguan Ning was amused and chuckled. But she also realized that it might not be a proper thing if she continued to live here.
Anan, please give me a lift home after lunch. I cant live at your brothers house all the time. It is not proper for him, too.
There is nothing improper! Just live here and tell Aunt Wang if you need anything. My brother has always been a cold and distant person, you can just ignore him.
Zhao Anan didnt think that Shangguan Ning should go home now. She knew that Shangguan Nings mother passed away ages ago and she had never heard her mentioning her father after knowing her for half a year. That basically meant that she didnt have any family around her.
I have troubled him so much. I cant trouble him any more. It is very nice here, but he and I are a man and a woman after all. It would be more convenient if I go back home.
Shangguan Ning was telling the truth. She wasnt hiding anything. She really thought that it wasnt a proper thing if she lived with a single man, especially someone so excellent as Jing Yichen. She might even end up losing her heart to him after a short while.
Seeing that Shangguan Ning was so determined, Zhao Anan understood that there was no use trying to convince her. So she had no choice but to say, Okay, but go back after dinner and remember to take Mus medicine with you. He might seem frivolous but medicine is really his thing.
Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief and replied thankfully, Thank you, Anan!
No need for thanks between us. Lets go and have lunch. You are getting thinner and thinner and that isnt a good sign. Eat as much as you want today, my brothers chef is excellent.
Shangguan Ning was never particr about food. But after this mornings breakfast, she understood what delicious meant.
Even the simplest things like a bowl of porridge and a side dish tasted so good and left a lingering taste in her mouth.
After lunch, Zhao Anan helped Shangguan Ning to dab the medical cream which had been brought from the hospital at Mu Qings order. She rested for a bit and then called the principal of University of X.
She needed him to give her a reason to fire her.
Although Zhao Anan didnt care about this job so much, yet firing her had pissed her off as well. But she was too focussed upon Shangguan Ning to think about this matter today.
She asked Shangguan Ning to put the call on speaker.
The calls went through after several attempts. Apparently, the man on the other side didnt want to answer the call.
Shangguan Ning exchanged a look with Zhao Anan. Rage was visible in both their eyes.
As soon as the call was answered, Shangguan Ning greeted him in a polite and respecting way. Greetings Principal, this is Shangguan Ning.
The Principal said in a formal way, Oh, hi, Ms. Shangguan.
Shangguan Ning didnt want to talk in a roundabout way. So she asked him directly, Principal, I heard that the school fired me. I want to know the reason.
The Principal sneered and said unhappily, Ms. Shangguan, are you so shameless to ask me why, after you have ruined the schools reputation?
Shangguan Ning was trying hard to control her emotion. She asked in a calm voice, Please tell me Principal, how did I ruin the schools reputation?
The Principal seemed unable to tolerate it any more. You seduced male teachers and students and had sex in the office. You even handed out sexual drugs. Some parents have alreadye to the school for this matter. You are an hical person who is not worthy of being a teacher!

Chapter 27: She Was Sacrificed Again
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning was startled at these words. She felt that her brain was almost exploding. Anger was rising in her heart.
She was the victim. How did the entire thing turn out to be like this?
That was why the school had fired her!
However angry she was, she understood that the principal was not the culprit. The man behind Guo Shuai, was.
Principal, that was a misunderstanding, I never...
Before she was able to finish her words, the principal interrupted her. Enough, you dont need to exin any more. You have caused a terrible impression for the school, but Deputy-Mayor Shangguan has suppressed it for you. He haspensated every loss on your behalf. The newspaper will not report this incident either. School doesnt need yourpensation for the loss. From now on, just behave yourself!
Shangguan Ning got surprised and annoyed hearing the word Deputy-Mayor Shangguan.
What did he mean by suppressed it? What did he mean by pensated every loss for her?
Those who framed her, must havee from somewhere and she believed that as long as she looked into the matter thoroughly, she would soon discover the loophole. Luring someone? They better have proof!
She had almost never spoken with any man after she started to teach at University of X, let alone lure someone.
Her father didnt care about her reputation. He just didnt want the rumor to affect his name as an officer.
That was why he couldnt wait to suppress the issue. It didnt matter who was right and who was wrong, as long as he was able to avoid trouble and rumor by giving away concessions.
He had the ability to carry out the inspection of the matter, but that would push Family Shangguan into the publics eye.
He was a Deputy-Mayor and was soon going to run for the election of the Mayor. He wanted to avoid any and every mistake.
He chose to sacrifice her again just for his own future.
Shangguan Nings heart froze as if being soaked in ice water.
She tried to get back to normalcy before asking with a hoarse voice, Principal, leaving aside my matter, why was Ms. Zhao Anan fired as well? She was just trying to rescue me at that time. She didnt mean to hurt the student. Besides, that student was acting very suspiciously at that time.
The Principal had no idea that Zhao Anan was listening on the other side of the phone, so he snapped at these words. Zhao Anan? She doesnt behave like a teacher at all. She is like a gangster who goes around the campus. We have been displeased with her for a very long time. Enough, Im too busy to chit chat with you!
He hung up the phone with a loud banging sound, preventing Shangguan Ning from saying anything more.
Zhao Anan, who was already pissed, stood up abruptly with her teeth clenched. I will get my brother. They are just bullying people around!
Shangguan Ning took hold of her. Dont Anan, please dont. I will solve my problem on my own.
Zhao Anan hesitated. Careless as she was, she wasnt a silly girl. She had guessed that Deputy-Mayor Shangguan must have been Shangguan Nings father from her talk with the Principal just now.
Shangguan wasnt amonly-seen family name, after all.
But what was her father doing? Didnt he know that the victim was his own daughter?
Shangguan Ning was also aware that Zhao Anan must have realized the truth. She hadnt been trying to conceal anything, but she would preferred not having a father like him.
She had never felt her fathers love since she was little. What she had experienced was abuse and hurt.
She was silly to have assumed that he would regard her as his daughter after all. But he was still cold-blooded and ruthless as before.
Did her mother kill herself in such a dreadful way because she, who had loved him so much, was hurt deeply by him?
She had nevere home after she went abroad. It was not her home. She lost her home when she had lost her mother.
Shangguan Ning took a deep breath and controlled her grief.
She was quite moved seeing Zhao Anan pissed. She wasnt a failure after all, because she had at least one good friend standing on her side.
She put down the phone and held Zhao Anans hands tightly.
She said guiltily, It was my fault to drag you down. Otherwise you would have quit rather than be fired.
Ning, you dont need to me yourself. It has nothing to do with you. As you heard yourself, the school has been displeased with me for a long time and I dont like staying in that kind of restraining ce either. It is good because now I can put my full attention into my western restaurant.
They exchanged a few words before Zhao Anan hurried away after receiving some calls. Her restaurant was newly-opened and she still had many things to deal with.
Shangguan Ning felt that she was both physically and psychologically tired. So she fell asleep immediately.
Jing Yichen came to check her up and went out again soon afterwards.
Tiger, has Guo died yet?
Tiger answered honestly, Nope, still breathing.
Jing Yichen had a cold look on his face as he said in a ruthless and determined tone, Keep him alive. He mustnt die now. Send him back and keep him under watch. He is going to suffer.
Yes, Master. Tiger answered and left.
Jing Yichen made some calls after he gave the order to Tiger. Then he started to deal with his business. He was going to take over Jingsheng Enterprise within a weeks time and there was a great deal of work left to do.
He had nned to meet some big shareholders at Jingsheng Enterprise. But with Shangguan Ning here, he didnt want to go out. So he postponed every meeting.
Shangguan Ning slept all the way to the evening. She felt much livelier after she got up. She wasnt that tired any more.
Mu Qings medicine really worked well.
She got out of bed and went down to the living room.
Jing Yichens vi had been built on three floors. The establishment was understatedly luxurious. The view was wide, showing beautifulndscape around.
As the evening came, the bright-red afterglow of the Sun shone into the vi through the floor-to-ceiling window, creating a beautiful, dreamy scene.
At this time, only the servant Aunt Wang and a chef were in the vi. The chef was busy preparing dinner whilst Aunt Wang was carefully wiping the white marble table in the living room. She ced a bunch of elegantly fresh white orchids on it.
Seeing Shangguan Ninging downstairs from the second floor, Aunt Wang asked her courteously with a smile, Ms. Shangguan, why dont you sleep some more? I will bring the dinner to you when it is ready.
Shangguan Ning answered Aunt Wang with a smile too, Its okay. Im much better now. Im not that weak.
Master said that if you feel bored, you can take a tour around the vi. Master almost never brings anyone here. There are many good things in the vi to see!
Shangguan Ning wasnt in the mood to tour the vi. She really wanted to leave the ce right now and go back to that freezing home of hers. She needed an exnation.
Aunt Wang, where is Master? I have got something to do now, so I may not be able to stay for dinner. You can skip preparing my portion. Can you please tell him that Im very thankful for his hospitality?
Aunt Wang was startled. She immediately stood in Shangguan Nings way. Ms. Shangguan, my Master is in the study upstairs. Why not say goodbye to him, yourself?
It was not a joking matter. Master was apparently very devoted to thisdy and she didnt dare let her go without his order.

Chapter 28: His Heart Ached for Her
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning thought for a while and decided that she should say goodbye to Jing Yichen in person, for the sake of politeness.
Besides, she would like to know what had happened to Guo Shuai. She had heard that he had been taken away by Jing Yichens men.
If possible, she wanted to ask Guo Shuai about the man behind him.
She didnt want a simr thing to happen again.
As for Guo Shuai, she believed that Zhao Anan must have punished him for her. He was lucky enough to be still alive.
But what Shangguan Ning didnt know was that it was this handsome, cold man who had punished him for her sake, rather than Zhao Anan.
She went upstairs following the direction Aunt Wang had pointed at and came to the study door. She knocked at the door lightly.
Jing Yichens low, nice voice came from inside. Come in.
Shangguan Ning pushed the door open and walked in. She saw Jing Yichen at theputer attentively with his back facing her. There was a thick pile of documents beside him.
Apparently, he was working.
Shangguan Ning said apologetically, I am sorry for disturbing you, Mr. Zhao.
Jing Yichen turned around and nodded at her lightly. Please wait a second. I will be done soon.
Hmm, sure. Please carry on. Shangguan Ning smiled, indicating that he didnt need to worry about her.
There was only one empty chair beside Jing Yichen in the entire study.
Shangguan Ning came to his side and sat down, trying to keep herself quiet so as not to disturb him.
It was very quiet in the study. After surveying the room for a while, Shangguan Ning involuntarily started to stare at this attentive man who was busy working.
She was only able to see his side angle.
He had a long bridged nose and his lips were well shaped. His eyes were like the stars in the dark, filled with profound glory. His eyshes were longer than hers and he had a strongly defined side face, just like a perfect piece of art.
He was wearing a simple white id shirt. The sleeves were folded up, showing his strong arms.
Such a simple set of clothes had be so extraordinary on him. The bright light shining on him clearly showcased his elegant and royal charisma.
He was so good-looking. He must have been the best-looking man with the most extraordinary charisma she had ever seen.
Shangguan Ning suddenly flushed with heat. She was remembering holding him tightly when she was half conscious the previous day.
Having finished the work, Jing Yichen turned around and noticed the absent-minded Shangguan Ning who had a flushed face.
He lifted the corner of his lips and smiled slightly.
It seemed that letting her sit here for a while was indeed the right choice.
He came to Shangguan Nings side and asked in a slightly worried voice, Why are you flushing? Do you have a fever again? Any pain anywhere?
Shangguan Ning was about to shake her head, when a broad, warm hand felt her smooth, broad forehead. Her body stiffened slightly.
His hand had a light scent of mint and the warmth of his palm spread all over her body from her forehead.
She flushed even more. She wasnt used to being so close to a man.
Seeing her flush even more, Jing Yichens lips stretched to a wider degree.
He wanted to tease her more and more, seeing her embarrassment.
Doesnt feel like fever. But why are you flushing so much? Well, let me call a doctor here to check you up.
He spoke in such a serious way and his face looked so cold that Shangguan Ning had no clue that he was teasing her on purpose.
Shangguan Ning took a deep breath, lifted her hand to move Jing Yichens palm off her forehead. She said softly, Im okay. You dont need to call a doctor.
She would totally lose her face if the doctor came.
But he was indeed a caring person.
Poor Shangguan Ning. She still considered Jing Yichen as a nice man and thought that his evilness was a sign of care to her.
Jing Yichen got a bit disappointed when the tender and smooth feeling disappeared from his palm.
But he soon adjusted himself back to normalcy, took a step back towards the chair and sat down. He asked lightly, What did you want to say to me?
He didnt think that a woman with Shangguan Nings personality woulde to find him in the study if she didnt have anything to tell him.
Shangguan Ning felt much morefortable when Jing Yichen parted from her.
She had never been so close to a man, not even to Xie Zhuojun. When Xie Zhuojun was ina, the only thing she did was, tell him stories sitting by his side every day, nothing more. After he woke up, he had wasted no time in falling in love with Shangguan Rouxue, which made it impossible for Shangguan Ning to have any close rtionship with him.
When the flush faded, the paleness of her face was disyed.
Shangguan Ning said softly, Thank you for taking care of me. I cant trouble you any more. I am going home now and will skip the dinner. I came here to say goodbye to you.
Jing Yichen frowned slightly. He didnt understand why Shangguan Ning wanted to leave so suddenly.
Was she so ufortable living here?
Jing Yichen didnt want to force her to stay. But he said without hesitation, Stay for dinner, thats it.
Where else would she eat dinner if she didnt eat it here?
She was still sick. Look at the bandage on the back of her head and her face that was as pale as a piece of paper. Leaving now? She didnt even know how to worry about herself.
Shangguan Nings lips moved. She wanted to turn down that offer. But seeing Jing Yichens annoyed face, she found it difficult to say anything.
She wasnt silly. However cold his face or his tone was, she was still able to tell that he was just concerned about her.
Warmth flowed across her heart. She nodded and agreed in the end.
Jing Yichen felt much better seeing her nodding obediently.
Shangguan Ning was silent for a while before asking, Is Guo Shuai here? I need to ask him something.
Jing Yichen froze at this name.
He wanted to kill Guo Shuai badly, but he needed him to stay alive as well. Otherwise Shangguan Ning would have trouble putting forward a clear exnation of the incident at the school.
He stayed silent for a moment. He had guessed that Shangguan Ning must have been aware that someone was backing Guo Shuai up.
I sent him away. His disappearance would be bad for you. You can ask me if you want to know anything. I may know more than he does.
Shangguan Ning looked up at him, upon hearing these words.
It seemed that he already knew about the school firing her and the rumor.
He was helping her again.
But what did he mean by knowing more than Guo Shuai?
Shangguan Ning thought that she didnt need to take a roundabout talking with people, smart and powerful like him.
So she said directly, Guo Shuai isnt alone in this thing. Someone is backing him up and that person must be so powerful that he can erase everything criminal thing that he does. This person may be my enemy, but I dont remember who I may have angered so much. So, I would like to know who that person is.
Jing Yichen replied with a light hmm after pondering over her words for sometime.
She was frightened at the beginning of the incident, but she had calmed herself down quickly and started to analyze the entire matter rationally rather than thinking about taking revenge.
Should he praise her for her smartness and calmness, or her silliness?
She was just an ordinary girl and what she ought to do was to weep out her hatred to Guo Shuai and talk about killing him after this incident, rather than keep the pain inside her heart and try to im justice in such a calm way.
His heart ached for her.

Chapter 29: Lady Ning Was Back
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yichen suddenly was unsure about whether or not he should tell her the truth, seeing the determination on Shangguan Nings pale face.
Truths tended to be cruel. Lies kept everything beautiful.
But he was worried that if he didnt tell her, Shangguan Ning would stay in the dark and may fall into another trap in the future.
I asked Guo, followed the clues which he gave me and found the men in business. Those men said that someone spent arge amount of money to provide back up to Guo.
Who was it? She asked.
Jing Yichen paused and then replied, Deputy-Mayor Shangguan.
Upon hearing these words, Shangguan Nings heart dropped into a ravines bottom. She let out a subconscious cry, Thats impossible!
Jing Yichen couldnt bear to see her like this. He understood pretty well that no one would be able to ept the fact that their own father was trying to frame them.
But this was the answer that hade out after the interrogation at ck-red Association.
It couldnt have been a mistake.
Shangguan Nings heart ached to an unbearable degree. But she still refused to believe it.
That is impossible. Even if he doesnt like me or regard me as his daughter, he wouldnt order anything like this. It is not beneficial for him.
She mumbled and tried to stop herself from panicking.
The entire thing was getting weirder and weirder. There were so many strange parts to it. But one thing was certain C the man behind the entire incident was trying hard to get her killed.
Shangguan Zheng was her father. He would not benefit if a trade was put on her.
It wasnt good for someone who was running for the Mayors election. It would be a huge stain for him if he had a daughter who kept fooling around.
She knew Shangguan Zheng well. He definitely wouldnt do that.
At this thought, Shangguan Ning looked up abruptly.
She asked Jing Yichen, Could it have been a mistake?
Jing Yichen found it amazing to look at the pair of her crystal-clear, clean and beautiful eyes where his own silhouette was reflected. He didnt know about Shangguan Nings family affairs well. His determined mind wobbled upon hearing her words.
It could have been a mistake. I will look into it tomorrow.
Shangguan Ning nodded thankfully, but she also thought that she shouldnt trouble him so much.
So she said, Let me go and look into it myself. You have helped me a lot.
Jing Yichen gave her a steady look. Just wait for my message. You neednt go anywhere.
Shangguan Ning knew that it basically meant there was no use arguing with him. She grinned, turned around and walked out of the study.
Her smile was so warm andforting, just like the sunshine after rain, one that entered through the eyes and created ripples in his heart.
The dinner was an unusuallyrge feast. The dishes filled up the long marble dining table.
Jing Yichen noticed the surprise in Shangguan Nings eyes.
A joy arose in his heart and his lips arched into a tiny smile. I didnt know what you like, so I asked for aplete preparation. Go ahead and taste them.
Shangguan Ning was truly surprised. These dishes were enough for ten people.
She didnt like wasting food and she had a habit of finishing everything on the te once she started eating the food. She would find it weird if there were any leftovers. This problem had almost be an obsessivepulsive disorder thing for her.
She had no idea what to do, seeing so much food at the table.
Her pretty eyebrows narrowed involuntarily. There is so much food. We will waste it if we cant finish it. You dont have to prepare so much next time.
Jing Yichen became happy seeing her na?ve expression. Her attention was solely on the food. She waspletely unaware that there had been a slip in her words. It seemed that she, subconsciously, expected another dinner together next time. It was worth all the efforts to have prepared so much food.
The two of them finished dinner quietly. Post that, Jing Yichen offered to drive Shangguan Ning home.
Shangguan Ning wanted to turn him down, but Jing Yichen didnt give her any chance to argue. He stuffed her into the passengers seat before he went to the drivers seat and started the car without a moment of hesitation.
For some reason, Shangguan Ning had no objection to him being bossy. Hadnt she always hated people who made decisions all by themselves?
She shook her head inwardly and said to Jing Yichen, Please drive me to Qingshi Vi Compound.
Qingshi Vi Compound was a luxurious livingpound developed by Jingsheng Enterprise. Those who lived there tended to be the rich and the powerful. It was one of the most confidential and safe ces in A City.
Jing Yichen was about to take over Jingsheng Enterprise, so he knew everything about A City. He knew pretty well that Deputy-Mayor Shangguan and his family were living in Qingshi Vi Compound.
He threw her a nce and nodded slightly. Okay.
The car stopped at the gate of thepound, and Shangguan Ning got off the car. A touch of grief and bitterness attacked her heart when she saw the high staircases at the gate.
She turned her head towards Jing Yichen and forced out a smile. Thank you for the lift. Drive home safely.
Jing Yichen nodded again and drove away.
Seeing the silver car disappearing, Shangguan Ning tried to gather her emotions and walked up the staircases with a calm expression on her face.
She had not been here for four years, even the security guard had been changed. It took the guard quite a while to confirm her identity before he let her in.
No sooner had shee to the door than the servant noticed her. The servant ran into the vi and reported. Lady Ning is back! Lady Ning is back!
Shangguan Ning drew in a deep breath and walked into the ce where she wished she never had to set foot again in her entire life.
In the elegantly embellished, spacious living room, the three members of the family were sitting on the sofa, drinking tea leisurely and eating the post meal fruit. Shangguan Rouxue seemed to have said something that made Shangguan Zheng smile with fondness.
Such a beautiful, harmonious scene stung Shangguan Nings eyes.
This should have been her beautiful home where her loving parents lived, rather than those ruthless people who were so hateful. Theugh and cheer of the three people in the family disappeared instantly the moment Shangguan Ning entered. The air seemed to have frozen.
It seemed as if she were an outsider, the extra one!
Yang Wenshu, the stepmother recovered first. She asked with a concerned expression on her face. Ning is back? Thats great. You havent been home for a long time. Come and take a seat. Make yourself at home.
Shangguan Ning sneered. You are too funny, Lady. Why should I be making myself at home? This is my home as well, because I am Shangguan too. Am I not?
Yang Wenshu didnt expect that she would be so fiercely hit by Shangguan Nings first words. She was so pissed inside her heart, but she still put on an expression on her face as if she had been misunderstood. The expression was exactly like Shangguan Rouxues. Of course, this is your home. Your dad and I have been looking forward to seeing you back here.
This little bitch had been out of sight for four years and now her tongue had also be sharper. Even her words had be more horrible.
Bah, but she had been driven out anyways and now Shangguan Zheng hated her more than ever before.
She had taken care of a vegetative man for so many years in vain and her daughter got the fruit in the end. Xie Zhuojun didnt even bother to look at her!
Lets see how much longer she could hold onto her pride. She had nothing left!
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting worse by the minute, Shangguan Rouxue immediately came to Shangguan Nings side, grabbed her arm and showed a na?ve, smiling face.
She said to her in a joyful tone, Finally you are home, Sister. I went to see youst time because I wanted you toe home so badly. Please dont me me any more, okay?
Chapter 30 - Shangguan Ning’s Madness
Chapter 30: Shangguan Nings Madness
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning pped away Shangguan Rouxues hand and said coldly, without any courtesy, Stay away from me!
If she didnt release that hand, Shangguan Rouxue would surely trip over something for some reason and then everyone else would assume that it was she who caused that.
She had experienced this trick too many times. In the beginning, she had panicked and tried hard to exin it to everybody. After the first few times, she stayed silent, however much others misunderstood her and now she was the first one to strike.
Shangguan Rouxue let out a cry of pain with a delicate voice, causing Yang Wenshu to hold onto her tightly, in a loving way. Yang Wenshu took a look at her arm anxiously.
Tears filled up her beautiful eyes. It looked as if she had been deeply misunderstood. Sister, are you still mad at me?
Shangguan Ning sneered and gave her the answer she wanted to hear most. Yes!
Shangguan Rouxue didnt seem to expect this answer. She said sadly, Sister, I... really love Zhuojun. I really didnt mean that! If you hate me, I will... leave him and return him to you, alright? Sister, please forgive me, I am so sad...
Shangguan Ning said nothing. She let her put on her show in Yang Wenshus arms.
But Shangguan Zheng couldnt hold it any more. He pointed at her and bellowed, Enough! You have caused such a big mess the moment you came in! Do you still regard me as your father? Get out of here!
Shangguan Ning sneered and said, Deputy-Mayor, how many words have I said since I came through this door? It has all been your wife and daughter who are ying out the show. Are you sending me away now when they are done? Unfortunately, I am not done yet!
I dont want to hear any of your words! Get out of here and nevere back! I dont have a shameless daughter like you!
Angry, Shangguan Ning revealed the scar of her heart without courtesy. Ha, so now Im not even your daughter? Why did you say so when you sent me to the vegetative man seven years ago? And then abandoned me after I was used. What a wonderful deal!
These words seriously ripped Shangguan Zhengs face and stung his self-esteem. He got enraged and pped Shangguan Ning on her cheek.
p! Shangguan Nings face became instantly swollen up. A red palmprint with five fingers could be seen clearly on her white face.
She wiped away the blood that leaked out of the corner of her lips and then she suddenly started tough wildly like a crazy woman.
Tears gushed out of her along withughter.
Oh yeah? I have poked your wound. Exchanging your daughter with your future. If you dared to do so, then I dare to say so! Do you think it is a shameless thing, too? Do you look down upon yourself too? Honestly, I am the one who looks down upon you the most.
Shut up, now! Blue veins popped out of Shangguan Zhengs forehead. He had his fist clenched. He looked as if he wanted to give her another p.
Seeing that he was so outraged and about to p her again, Shangguan Rouxue quickly came up and held onto his arm. She advised him softly, Dont be angry, Daddy. Sister was just being angry so she said something wrong. Please dont me her!
At these words, she looked at Shangguan Ning. Sister, apologize to Daddy, now. He will definitely forgive you!
Shangguan Ning ignored herpletely, as if she never existed.
She straightened her back and looked at Shangguan Zheng coldly, with her chin up. I am here today, only because I want to know if it was you who sent someone to trap me at school.
Shangguan Zheng didnt expect that she was here asking about this matter. He got extremely outraged. What good would it do to me to set that trap? Are you so crazy as to suspect me? Get out of here as soon as possible. I dont want to see you even for one second.
Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief hearing these words.
He had been her father for more than twenty years and she knew Shangguan Zheng well. If he said no, then it was definitely a no.
However, even if he didnt send Guo Shuai to frame her, he didnt help her either. Instead, he used his money to suppress everything for his own sake.
The tears in Shangguan Nings eyes dried up after a while. Cold calmness came back to her face. You knew very well that I am innocent, but you refused to find out the truth. Were you were afraid that the rumor will get big and ruin your future? It doesnt matter. I dont need your help. I will look into the matter myself. I will make the entire city know that Deputy-Mayors daughter was framed and the indecent rumor is a lie.
Dont you dare to do so! Shangguan Zheng was so outraged that his entire body trembled. He had reached a high position now and since many years, no one had dared to talk to him in this way.
Many things tended to get worse with exnations. Therefore, this incident must be pressed down. It didnt matter what the truth was. What mattered was that no one talked about it.
I will dare to do whatever I want! My fianc is gone, family is broken, I lost my job, and I was left for being almost dead. I havee to a dead end and I will fight however hard I want. As long as I am alive, you will never have a peaceful day!
Shangguan Zheng got so angry that he snatched the tea cup on the table and smashed it against Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning ducked the tea cup. But the hot liquid sttered all over her face.
The tea cup smashed onto the ground, scattering into pieces.
What kind of rebellion is this? You ruthless daughter! I brought you up and you are repaying me in such a cruel way! Shangguan Zheng felt that he had raised an ungrateful daughter.
He had given her the best things when she was young and now she wanted to take revenge on him. What was the problem if a daughter did something for her father?
Shangguan Ning had gonepletely pale.
Tears trickled down along her cheeks as she said coldly, It was my mother who gave birth to me and raised me. You have given all of your love to the love child, never to me!
Your mother died ages ago! Shangguan Zheng bellowed angrily.
Calmness slipped out of Shangguan Ning instantly. She was shivering terribly.
Her sharp tone was full of indescribable pain. Then tell me how on Earth did my mother die. Why did she abandon me and kill herself?
That was the deepest scar on the bottom of Shangguan Nings heart, one that shouldnt be touched by anyone.
She would instantly get crazy and hysterical if someone touched that.
Hehe... Herugh was hoarse and unpleasant with a sense of scariness that creeped people out.
My mothers blood is everywhere in this house. She died, suffering in pain. It was not a peaceful death. Has she evere to you when you are sleeping here at night? Do you feel at ease and justified to sleep in the house which she decorated with her own hands? I hope that my mother wont be waiting too long for my revenge...
The death of his ex-wife was also a thorn in Shangguan Zhengs heart, one that should not be touched by anyone easily, either. But now, Shangguan Ning poked him with this thorn into the deepest corner of his heart.
He bellowed instantly, She killed herself! How could anyone else be involved? She was petty-minded for not being able to tolerate anyone else.
Shangguan Ning sneered. You are broad-minded, arent you? Then why cant you tolerate your own daughter? Why should my mother have tolerated some stranger and her child? Why must my mother have answered to the consequences of the mistakes you made!
She wiped off the remaining teas drops from her face and said something that made the other threes heart skip a beat. If you continue to force me, I will report to the office that Deputy-Mayor Shangguan had an affair and had a love child with the mistress and together they cruelly killed the wife to shut her mouth!

Chapter 31: They Had the Same Life Experience

Having created the scene, Shangguan Ning walked out of the door without looking back. There was nothing in this ce that was worth staying back for.
The young guard at thepound gave her a confused look, seeing that she was out so quickly.
Shangguan Ning wasnt in the mood to care about how suspiciously the guard looked at her. She was swallowed by the chill and fatigue.
Water was still dripping from both her cheeks. Her hair was unkempt and she looked a mess.
The northern wind swooshed by, with the fallen leaves bringing with it, a moment of bone-piercing chill.
Shangguan Ning walked down the stairs, step by step. She felt that all of her energy had been sucked out within one moment. The tiny hope in the deepest corner of her heart had turned into despair.
She still had many bruises over her body and the wound on her head also hurt. The pain tired her out and she slipped. She started falling off from the high stairs.
But the pain she had expected didnt arrive. Instead, she fell into a pair of warm arms.
Shangguan Ning took hold of the broad waist out of instinct. She looked up and saw that familiar and handsome face.
She tried to endure the pain and forced out a smile. She asked, Why did youe back?
I never left. Jing Yichens voice was low and full of care and rage.
Only a moment had passed, and Shangguan Ning came out in such a messed up way. She had beenpletely fine before she went inside.
Was her home a hazardous cave?
He scooped up Shangguan Ning horizontally and carried her into the warm car.
Shangguan Ning did not struggle. She leaned into Jing Yichens warm and dependable arms. A touch offort seemed to arise in her hollow heart.
It was wonderful that he had not left.
So lucky that he was still waiting for her.
But why was she always so messy in front of him?
She buried her head into his chest and burst into tears, all of a sudden.
Tears wetted Jing Yichens clothes, but he didnt mind at all. Instead, he only held her in his arms and gave a soft pat on her back, offering silent constion.
Maybe it was because of tiredness or the pain which had returned, Shangguan Ning passed out after crying for a moment.
When Jing Yichen didnt hear the crying sound and saw the woman in his arms copsing on him, he was so startled that he started driving towards Family Mus hospital at a high speed.
It was bright at Family Mus hospital, and Mu Qing was already waiting in the emergency room. He got up immediately when Jing Yichen showed up with the woman in his arms.
Mu Qing let out a huge sigh of relief after a careful examination.
She is fine. She was wounded yesterday and hurt by the strong drugs. And now she has been mentally stimted, so she passed out. But that is just temporary. She has an excellent physical quality so she will be fine after some rest. But she really needs to take a good rest from now on. She shouldnt be simted any more, otherwise there might be some seque.
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief in his heart at these words. He nodded at him coldly but his eyebrows were still furrowed.
Mu Qing was very displeased by his behavior. He had sounded so maniacal and scary on the phone on the way here. He had thought that it was a life-threatening thing.
Could he not get so startled over such a small thing?
He was not like this before. He was so cool to have tormented the people at ck-red Association this morning, and now... look at his face! He had apparently been totally distracted by a woman. What a shame!
Could love really be so powerful?
No way, Jing Yichen knew nothing about love. He was a cold-blooded animal who wore an icy-cold expression every day.
He wanted to stretch out his arm to give a pat on Jing Yichens shoulder when he realized that he didnt like being touched by others. He still remembered toppling over when he had tried to pat his shoulder thest time. It was a sour and unpleasant feeling that still lingered in his mind. So he gave a pat on his own thighs instead with his outstretched hand.
Boss Chen, honestly. It is just a woman. I almost died because of your torment!
You dont understand. You will know when you run into the same situation in the future. Jing Yichen had no expression on his face. He sounded cold just like usual.
But Mu Qing could tell that he was being serious.
He found it funny. It sounded as if he had a clear understanding of love!
Honestly, Jing Yichen had never been in a rtionship before whilst Mu, who had been with many girls before, was demeaned by this love idiot at this moment instead.
It was totally intolerable. He had no choice but to make it tolerable.
However, if he wasnt allowed to y a joke on Jing Yichen, he could stimte him.
Does the girl know you like her so much? I saw the innocence in her eyes this morning... she doesnt seem to like you.
He thought that Jing Yichen would certainly get very outraged because of his arrogant personality. Unexpectedly, however, he thought for a moment and nodded. You are right, she doesnt know about it yet. Till now, it has only been my wishful thinking.
Mu Qing was so surprised that he almost bit off his tongue. He stuttered. Have... have you be totally stupid?
He just spilled such a shameful matter with such a calm expression on his face.
Hadnt he always been so arrogant that he never paid attention to women? Hadnt he always looked down on people who lost themselves because of love?
He noticed Jing Yichen taking out a handkerchief and wiping off the water drops from the womans face in a gentle way. Then he started to carefully dab the medicine on her. There was a clear palmprint on her tender face. Apparently, she had been pped hard.
This was definitely not the Jing Yichen he knew.
In his opinion, Jing Yichen was the code word for coldness and ruthlessness. When had he ever been so gentle before?
He walked out of the advanced ward, annoyedly. On one side, he thought that Jing Yichen had destroyed the great and magnificent image in his heart whilst on the other side, he found the image that he had seen just now was beautiful.
Jing Yichen gently caressed Shangguan Nings white, tender face. He paused at the dreadful palmprint.
Who pped her?
Who dared to p her!
He would not let him go, no matter who that person was.
Shangguan Nings eyebrows were slightly furrowed in her sleep. She looked as if something painful was badgering her in the dream.
He smoothened her narrowed eyebrows with his big hands so that she could sleep better.
Before he came back to China, he had already received the information about the officers at A City from staff at the enterprise, because he was about to take over Jingsheng Enterprise.
Shangguan Zheng was listed as the second on the rank as the Deputy-Mayor.
He remembered clearly that Shangguan Zheng had only one daughter named Shangguan Rouxue in the family column apart from his own information.
Either it was because the staff at the Enterprise was doing a bad job in collecting the information, or it was because someone was trying to press down Shangguan Nings information.
She was the Deputy-Mayors daughter, but very few people knew about it. Yet her sister Shangguan Rouxue was known as the Lady of Deputy-Mayors family.
Who had the ability to press down Deputy-Mayors family affairs?
Undoubtedly, it must have been Shangguan Zheng himself.
He recollected Shangguan Familys information after he got to know Shangguan Ning.
Her mother had passed away ages ago. Her stepmother intruded her home with her daughter and took away both her father and her fianc. She had been forced to study abroad.
She must have had a hard time, didnt she? No wonder she looked so bleak even when she smiled.
Hehe, her life experience was almost exactly the same as his.
Could it have been a rare arrangement of destiny?

It was a cold winter morning. The sun rose up at azy speed, casting a beam of gentle light into the advanced ward at Family Mus hospital.
Shangguan Nings internal clock woke her up from sleep at 6:30 am.
The first thing that she saw was a patch of white clean roof. Smell of antiseptic, mingled with the lovely scent of lilies, was in the air.
Shangguan Ning felt dizzy as shey in the bed. Where was she?
She was about to lift her hand to brush away the hair that blocked her view when arge, warm hand took hold of her fingers, instead.
Her movement woke up Jing Yichen, who had been resting by her bedside.
He raised his head and met Shangguan Nings surprised look. He let out a tiny smile seeing her eyes widen. Up now?
His voice was hoarse, but still sounded nice. His smile was brighter than the suns rays filtering through the window.
Shangguan Nings heart skipped a beat. She tried to distract herself and asked softly, What is this ce?
Family Mus hospital. You faintedst night.
Hearing Jing Yichens words, Shangguan Ning suddenly remembered what had happened the night before. All she could recall was that she had been crying in his arms. But she hadnt imagined that she would pass out.
This was an awkward situation.
She had lost her controlst night, and the sadness that she held in heart for years had burst out. At that time, she had wished for a pair of strong arms to lean into. Thinking back now, she realized that it might have been slightly improper on her part to wish for something like that.
Judging from his current looks, it seemed that he had been besides her throughout the night. A feeling of gratitude arose in her heart. She knew that now she owed him another favor.
Thank you so much forst night. You helped me again.
Shangguan Ning spoke the words as she tried to sit up. She nned to pull out her hand from Jing Yichens palm by doing this. She was trying to do it without drawing his attention.
But Jing Yichen sensed it. Instead of releasing it, he increased the grip on her hand. Her hand was smooth, tender and white. It was really soft, almost boneless. It felt nice to hold it in his hand.
Shangguan Nings hand was trapped by hisrge hand, and the warmth from his palm reached her, heating her up and making her flush.
A small, involuntaryugh slipped out of Jing Yichens mouth upon seeing her face turn into an overripe apple instantly. Why do you blush so easily? I am just holding your hand, not swallowing you up.
Saying these words, he let go of her hand, turned around and walked out of the ward.
She was startled.
Did he just tease her?
She stayed surprised for quite a while lying in that sickbed and that expression stayed on her face, even when she got up. She washed herself with the disposal sanitary appliance at the hospital.
Although the breakfast provided at Family Mus hospital was borate and nutritious, yet Jing Yichen didnt touch a thing.
Shangguan Ning ate a little and found it tasty. She now had a better understanding of his food criteria.
Shangguan Ning got into Jing Yichens car after breakfast, and they went back to Landscape Compound.
The moment he sat in his seat, Jing Yichens cell phone started to ring. He nced at the cell phone and ignored it. Instead, he focused all his attention upon driving the car.
Shangguan Ning, who was sitting in the passengers seat, identally spotted the name on the screen. It said Grandma.
She found it weird that Jing Yichen didnt answer his grandmas call. But they were not close enough yet, for her to ask him the reason for it. So she sat there in silence, pretending as if she never heard the call.
The cell phone rang for more than ten times. Jing Yichen was finally defeated by the persistence of the caller. He answered the call with a cold expression on the face.
You bad grandson. Why didnt you pick up the phone earlier? An olddys voice, full of vitality came from the other side of the phone, the moment it was picked up.
Jing Yichens face darkened. But he asked in a light tone, What do you want?
I heard that you sent a helicopter to Anans school. What happened? The newspaper said that a rich man flew in a helicopter to pick up his girlfriend at school. Have you got a girlfriend?
He knew that the Old Lady would definitely ask him about that. It was a surprise that she had waited for two days before asking him.
He lied without blinking, Anan was framed. I went there to support her.
But the Old Lady wasnt a fool. She didnt buy her grandsons trick. She also knew that her grandson would never tell the truth.
So she started with her usual nagging. I had told you that I would set you up with a girl. Come and have dinner at home tonight. Both of you can interact.
Before she could finish the sentence, Jing Yichen interrupted her coldly. I am not avable.
Then he hung up.
Shangguan Ning could hear everything the Old Lady said sitting next to Jing Yichen. The call had been loud.
She found it funny that a cold, handsome man like him still needed to go through the process of being urged to get married.
He suddenly sped up the car as if he were pulling a prank. Shangguan Ning was caught off guard and let out a cry. The silver luxurious sports car galloped, exceeding and almost scratching every car as it passed them. It was more exciting than a car race.
Shangguan Ning was slightly pale by the time they reached the Landscape Compound.
Jing Yichen was relieved, but also regretted the impulse. He thought that it might have been over the top. He wondered if the action had frightened her.
Are you... alright?
He sounded careful as if not wanting to anger her. Shangguan Nings heart softened instantly.
Actually, she hadnt been scared. It was just that she had not experienced this kind of excitement in a long time and it felt great. She just couldnt believe that a stable, mature, and indifferent man like Jing Yichen would ever do anything like this.
What a petty-minded guy! Sheughed at him for being pushed for a marriage and he had repaid her like this.
She threw a look at him and said three words. What a child!
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief seeing her expression C she was not angry.
He realised that he had behaved quite childishly today. It was something only a 22 year old young guy would do, not someone ten years older.
But for some reason, he always felt rxed next to her and ended up behaving slightly irrational.
A small smile appeared at the corners of his lips. Yes, I havent been childish in a long time. I always had some responsibility or another after I grew up. It feels great to be a child sometimes though. I just hope that I didnt scare you.
Shangguan turned her head and looked at him. He seemed to appear indifferent and calm again, his usual self. For some reason, her heart felt an ache all of a sudden.
No one was born cold. He must have had a difficult life as well.
Jing Yichen pulled the car into the parking lot. They got down and walked into the elevator together.
When they reached the sixth floor, Shangguan Ning walked out.
Jing Yichens low and sexy voice spoke from behind her, Take the medicine ording to the prescription. Come to find me on the 27th floor if you need anything.
Shangguan Ning turned around, and Jing Yichens handsome, erect figure was in front of her. His eyes seemed brighter than usual, gleaming gently in a way that drew people inside, involuntarily.
The elevator closed slowly, separating the two of them. But it seemed that they had not parted at all.

When Shangguan Ning got back home, she cleaned herself up as best as she could.
Her wounds were still fresh, especially the wound on the back of her head which hurt every now and then. Mu Qing had told her to ensure that it doesnt get wet. So she had no choice but to dab herself in a careful way.
Guo Shuai had hit her so violently as if they were long time enemies, with massive hatred towards each other.
She had been living extremely carefully, but trouble still came and found her. But, there was no use retreating all the time. She should fight back when it was necessary.
She controlled her thought process and tried to look at the brighter side. Now she didnt need to work any more, and could just rest at home.
She will take this opportunity to find another apartment and move out, otherwise Aunt and Cousin mighte to trouble her soon again.
She would need to visit her caf as well, in a few days. She had not been there in a month now, and she was not sure how the business was doing. She had hired someone else to run the ce. She had purchased the store before she went abroad, so it had been attracting many old customers who kept the business lively.
It had always been her mothers wish to run a cosy, romantic caf which could provide a quiet ce for people who became agitated easily. However, she hadnt been able to make that wishe true, even till the end of her life. She had always been devoted to her husband and daughter throughout, and never asked for anything in return.
Whenever Shangguan Ning thought of her mothers suicide, the hatred in her heart increased and tears fell out of her eyes.
But she knew that her mother didnt like it when she cried. She liked it when she was happy.
Shangguai Ning decided to get back to her feet and find another job. She had a Doctors Degree from overseas, and she would find a way out for herself.
She had just clicked upon the recruitment website when her phone rang.
The screen showed that the caller was her Uncle.
She picked it up instantly.
Huang Lihans caring voice came through the phone. Ning, this is Uncle. How have you been?
I am very well, Uncle. Dont worry. Shangguan Ning tried to sound calm. She didnt want Huang Lihan to worry about her.
But what Huang Lihan said next made her realise that it was futile.
I heard that you are not working in school any more?
Huang Lihan was asking her about it in a tactful way. He knew that Shangguan Ning had been fired, but the school didnt want to spell out the reason for it. Apparently, someone had suppressed the matter.
Shangguan Ning was not surprised. Uncle had always paid attention to her lifes events, silently. It was impossible that Uncle wouldnt get to know about her being fired by school. It had simply been a matter of time before he did.
She replied with a nonmittal hmm.
She injected smile in her voice the next instant, trying to make him less worried. It is alright. I also need some rest. Someone like your niece would certainly find a job soon enough.
Huang Lihan was angry. This is not right. I wouldnt let them go scot free till the time they dont give me a reason. Tell me, did you get misunderstood at the school? And what about Shangguan Zheng? Doesnt he care about this issue as your father?!
Bitterness arose in Shangguan Nings heart.
It would have been great if Shangguan Zheng didnt care about a thing, so that she could make a big fuss about the incident and make those who framed her up, rify the entire matter. But with him involved, she had silently ended up admitting to the usation, though the rumor had been pressed down for the time being.
I wasnt misunderstood. Please dont speak to the school, Uncle. Let bygones be bygones. This incident had been dreadful for her. She desperately hoped that it would pass soon. She really didnt want to think about that day anymore.
Huang Lihan sensed Shangguan Nings uneasiness. So he changed the topic immediately. Well, I can find a new job for you. What about joining mypany as the vice president? Your mother had a share at Family Huangs Real Estate anyway.
Shangguan Ning was surprised at these words. She shook her head in the phone. No, no, Uncle! You have been doing pretty well at Family Huangs Real Estate, and I dont want to cause trouble for you. As for my mothers share... please keep it safe for me. I will surely find a job. Dont worry about me.
Huang Liyan understood that Shangguan Ning wouldnt want to work at Family Huangs Real Estatepany. She didnt want to cause trouble for him. He wished that his wife, Lin Yu could have been be more tolerant about this child whom his sister had left behind. He would have kept his niece close to him and lived an easier, happier life.
He tried to convince her for a bit but Shangguan Ning firmly refused to work at hispany.
I wont force you if you dont want to do it. Let me look around and see if I can rmend you elsewhere. You dont need to look for a job, I will help you. Just wait for my message. The helpless Huang Lihan could do nothing but let her go to some otherpany.
Shangguan Ning was about to reject again when Uncle interrupted her in a serious tone. Ning, I know it wont be difficult for you to find a job, but please trust me, and give me a chance to take care of you. I regard you as my own daughter. Why must you stay so distant from me?
Shangguan Ning was speechless.
Of course she trusted Uncle. She just didnt want to cause him any trouble. She might really hurt him if she still turned him down this time.
She smiled and felt a sliver of warmth inside the heart. Its really nice to have an Uncle who cares so much about me. I dont need to worry about anything. Okay, I will not look for a job and if I starve, you will have to support me.
Her childish tone amused Huang Liyan. He instantly became happy. No problem! I will support youpletely. You can just rx, and get ready for the new job. You mustntin when ites!
The two of them talked happily for a bit before they hung up.
Sitting in the spacious office at Family Huangs Real Estate, Huang Liyan started to think about his nieces job. He wanted to send her to a ce where he was able to take care of her. His niece was beautiful, highly educated, and quite capable. He didnt even bother considering the smallerpanies. He knew enough people from big enterprises, yet few were trustworthy.
He thought for a moment and then it hit his brain.
He had had dinner with President Jing Zhongxiu of Jingsheng Enterprise earlier. The man had mentioned that he was going to hand over the power to his son so that he could retire and enjoy his life.
He had even met Jing Zhongxius son, who was called Jing Yichen or something. He was an elegant and handsome man. He had praised the young man for superseding his father, at that time.
The only concern was that he was known to be distant and indifferent.
But the calmer a man was, the more sessful he would be. And, these kind of people tended not to pick on others on purpose.
He would ask Jing Zhongxiu to pay some attention to Shangguan Ning. She should be a good fit there. At least she would not be fired.
At this thought, Huang Liyan instantly picked up the phone and called his old friend for dinner. He would convince the man, since it concerned his nieces future.

Shangguan Nings cell phone suddenly rang at midnight. The ring jerked her up from sleep.
Shangguan Ning noticed that it was a strange number, so she disconnected it without hesitation. She was annoyed to have been woken up by the call.
But the phone kept ringing, so she answered finally with a frown.
Hello, who is this?
Xie Zhuojuns outraged voice came from the other side. Shangguan Ning! What did you go to Family Shangguans home for? Cant you just stop badgering them! Are you so jealous of me, for living a good life?
Shangguan Ning lost her remaining sleep upon hearing Xie Zhuojuns voice.
Anyone would get angry when woken up at midnight and scolded, least of all, by Xie Zhuojun, who was thest man Shangguan Ning wanted to meet or hear from.
You missed your pills today, didnt you? Why are you acting crazy with me at midnight? Shangguan Ning asked coldly.
Her voice was openly mocking him. How does it concern you if and when I visit my own home? Whether you are living a good life or not is not my concern. But I told you not to disturb my life any more. I have already let you go and have given up fighting over the past. If you dare to irritate me again, I will settle both the old and new ounts with you, once and for all!
Xie Zhuojun got shocked when he heard these words.
He had gotten angry today and called her because Shangguan Rouxue made a big fuss about breaking up. But he never expected that Ning would sound so ruthless.
She used to go after him all the time and spoke to him in a very soft, gentle way. She always had a smile on her face and had never gotten angry with him in the past. She had always taken good care of him.
He had been used to a Shangguan Ning who always worked and neverined. But during thest two meetings, he felt as if he didnt know her at all.
She sounded really distant and cold tonight.
He was still thinking about this when she asked coldly, How did you get my phone number? Did Shangguan Rouxue give it to you? She is quite capable to have found my new number. She might as well start working as a detective!
For some reason, Xie Zhuojun got extremely annoyed upon hearing Shangguan Ning talk to him in this tone.
He had a tendency to say terrible things whenever he got angry. It doesnt matter how I got your number. The point is that you went to her today and forced her to leave me. You are such a shameless person. Even if Xue werent here, I would have still not looked at you. In your entire life, you wont find someone who wants you. You ruthless woman!
Shangguan Nings heart ached as if it was pierced by a knife. This was the man, on whose well-being, she had spent two years. During the time when he was lying in sickbed and breathing feebly, she had only wished that he could open his eyes and talk to her.
And now that he did speak, the words he said were so inhuman!
The wound that had healed in her heart was ripped open once again, bleeding badly. And the past images which she had tried hard to forget, emerged in her mind.
She would never forget that day. It was raining hard. She hade home and found the two of them tangled with each other in bed.
Her heart was dripping blood, and her body was shivering. But she exined it in a very calm manner. I never forced Shangguan Rouxue to leave you. I went home yesterday because I had wanted to ask Deputy-Mayor Shangguan about the school firing me. I exchanged only two sentences with your girlfriend, which consisted of less than ten words each. You believe whatever you hear, and thene to interrogate me, be it right or wrong. You are led on by a woman. I truly look down on you now. Also, if you dug out my number without my permission, I wont let that pass easily.
Xie Zhuojun had regretted the outburst immediately after he had uttered those words. He became even more regretful after listening to what Shangguan Ning had to say.
Hi father always said that he believed things quite easily, and was an impulsive man, who needed several more years of practice.
He didnt buy that before, but now he had started to believe it a little.
He didntpletely believe Shangguan Ning, but he had a little doubt on Shangguan Rouxues words.
He firmly believed that Shangguan Rouxue was the purest woman who would never lie to him. But maybe Xue had misunderstood Shangguan Ning as well?
When Xue called him yesterday, she had wanted to break up with him. Teary eyed, she had even said that she wanted to return him to Sister. But she never once mentioned that Shangguan Ning had been fired by the school.
Maybe Xue was so sad... that she forgot to mention it?
Xie Zhuojun tried hard to figure out a rtively reasonable exnation.
But why was Shangguan Ning fired by the school for no reason?
He was about to ask her what had happened, when he realised that it was already dead on the other end.
Shangguan Ning had hung up on him!
Earlier, she used to wait until he hung up. She always had endless patience for him.
And now, she didnt even want to hear his voice?
Xie Zhuojun finally realized that something important had disappeared from his life.
But he still wanted to know why Shangguan Ning was fired by the school.
If he couldnt ask Shangguan Ning, then he would ask Xue. She would definitely tell him.
It was already quitete. Xue must have fallen asleep. He would wait until tomorrow for that.
Shangguan Ning wasnt able to fall asleep after she hung up the phone.
It was they who owed her, but why did it sound as if it had been she who owed them!
Shangguan Rouxue was indeed a cunning girl with such crafty methods. She was exactly like her mother who had robbed a woman of her husband, and was good at confusing right with wrong.
Earlier, she used to think that hating others was an enormous torment to herself, so she had naively thought about letting them go so that she could set herself free as well.
Not any more.
She wouldnt go and chase what she had lost. But she would not tolerate it if someone intended to bully her.
She got upte next morning due to the uneasy sleep during the previous night.
She had just finished washing herself up when her Uncle called.
Hello, Uncle.
Ning! Huang Lihan sounded quite happy. I told a friend about you and he is very satisfied with you. He would like to hire you as the assistant to the President of the enterprise. But, for this, he needs approval from the Board of Directors. Dont worry, it is just a routine check. So they need your CV. Send that to me and then you can start work next week onwards!
Shangguan Ning didnt expect that Uncle could be so effective that he solved her working issue within one day.
She was happy to hear that her Uncle was in a good mood. Okay! I will send you the CVter. Whichpany is it? I will definitely work hard and not bring shame to you!
Huang Lihanughed. My niece is the most excellent woman! She will only earn honor for her uncle. If you werent so, they wouldnt consider you even at my rmendation. So you have been hired because of your ability. You would definitely know about thispany. It is Jingsheng Enterprise!
What? Jingsheng Enterprise!?
Chapter 35 - Jing Zhongxiu was Uncle Jing
Chapter 35: Jing Zhongxiu was Uncle Jing
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jingsheng Enterprise was a giantpany that was involved in various fields. The achievements at the enterprise had been excellent through the years. The CEO was the famous Jing Zhongxiu, who appeared on the Forbes Asia List every year. He was an important and renowned person with great power in A City. Jingsheng Enterprise made headlines in the financial section of media in A City almost all year round. Even the garbage pickers knew the presidents name.
And, she was going to be assistant to the President of Jingsheng Enterprise??
Shangguan Ning felt as if she were in a dream. This was an enterprise which everyone strived hard to get inside and she had been given direct ess to the top C to be the Presidents assistant!
It was known that a huge enterprise like Jingsheng needed an assistant to President who was able to reach to the core of the enterprise and to serve well at the Presidents side. The assistant would also have powerful say within thepany and when the President was not avable, the assistant would, to some degree, carry out the right to govern the enterprise on his behalf.
Uncle, well... I do have a high educational degree. But I dont have the right experience... will that be ok? Shangguan Nings confidence wobbled at the name of Jingsheng Enterprise. She was a little shocked.
Huang Lihan knew pretty well what she was worried about.
He replied smilingly, It is alright! You will be fine. Besides, Uncle Jing is a nice man, and you dont need to be afraid of him when you start to work there. Just be yourself while doing your job. Dont you remember that he had held you in arms when you were little?
Shangguan Ning was surprised to hear that. When was it? Why dont I remember it?
When you were ten years old, you tagged alongside me all day around. While fishing with us one day, you almost fell into the water, and Uncle Jing scooped you up. He also gave all of his fish to you.
That incident rang a bell.
At that time, her mother had just passed away. Ning was a ten year old girl who suddenly got a stepmother and a half-sister. Her father was solely devoted to them at the time and she had beenpletely forgotten.
She was in tears every day, and always got injured for reasons unknown. Uncle brought her to his house, despite his wifes loud protests. He had been afraid that she would run into some serious ident at her fathers ce.
Once, when he went fishing with his friends, she tagged along. She was yful at that age, so she forgot about the unhappy things as soon as she saw the fish.
Seeing other people fishing, she had insisted on doing the same in the river. Since her uncle disapproved of that action, she sneaked into the river when he was not paying attention.
She was scooped up and carried back to the river bank by one of Uncles friends who also gave her a basket full of fat fish. When the evening came, she and her uncle, together with his friends, cooked that fish for dinner.
So that man was Uncle Jing!
It had been so long since the incident happened. Uncle Jings image was already blurry in her mind. But she remembered that he had been an affable man.
She let out a sigh of relief and became less nervous.
I remember that Uncle Jing is an affable man. Shangguang Ning said to Uncle, with a smile.
But she realised that Jing Zhongxiu might not be as easy going a man as she remembered him to be. After all, he had developed such a prosperous enterprise like Jingsheng.
But she wasnt so bad herself. She would surely make him happy by working diligently.
After she hung up the phone, she immediately modified her CV and sent it to her Uncle.
It was only after Huang Lihan received the mail, did he remember that Jing Zhongxius son was going to take over Jingsheng Enterprise, soon. However, Shangguan Ning wouldnt have any problem with whoever was in that chair. Besides, he thought that Jing Zhongxiu wouldnt let go of his position so fast. It shouldnt happen before the Chinese New Year, at least.
He didnt dwell much on it and sent the working time and address to Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but let out a sigh of relief after she received the message C her work wouldnt start until next Monday.
It was Wednesday today and there were still four days left before next Monday.
She needed to use this free time and rest. In the meanwhile, she was also going to fill herself up with more knowledge about Jinsgheng Enterprise.
Right at the same time, Jing Yichen received an e-mail which his father, Jing Zhongxiu, had sent. The content was simple and short: Your assistant. Will start working at the same time as you, next Monday. A CV had been attached and sent.
So, he just couldnt wait to ce someone next to him?
Jing Yichen sneered.
He ignored the mail and started to work on something else.
After a while, Tiger called from America.
Jing Yichen picked up the call immediately and sounded unusually eager. Tiger, did you find her?
Yes, Master! It is Ms. Tang Yun! Tiger was very excited. The woman whom Master had been seeking for ten years, had been finally found.
Jing Yichen got really excited as well. The heavy load that had been in his heart was finally going to be released.
Jing Yichen felt rxed. His voice went back to being normally cool. Bring her back then.
Tiger answered hesitantly, Master, Ms. Tang Yun said that unless youe and pick her up yourself, she wont return.
It was silent on the other side of the phone.
Tiger knew pretty well that Master hated it when someone threatened or bargained with him. But Master might have topromise when it came to Ms. Tang Yun.
Sure enough, Jing Yichen answered lightly after a moment, I wille pick her up myself. Youe back to China first. I need you to handle something here. Get someone to protect her in secret. Make sure she is well.
Yes, Master! Tiger was really happy that Master had allowed him toe back to China. He didnt like staying abroad alone, and most importantly, he didnt like Ms. Tang Yun, didnt like her not ten years ago and now even less so.
Tiger booked the ne ticket and returned to A City, the same night.
Jing Yichen was a bit surprised seeing Tiger. So fast? Did you fix everything for Ms. Tang?
Yes, Master. All is done. I left twenty men to keep her under protection 24 hours a day, and left enough amount of money too.
Jing Yiche nodded. He asked after a moment of silence, You dont seem to like her?
He sounded quite sure even though it was a question.
Tiger was a straightforward man. He nodded directly without caring if Tang Yun was important to Jing Yichen or not.
Jing Yichen didnt get angry. Instead, heughed. Wasnt she really nice to you before?
Well... Tiger was a simple-minded person. He didnt understand why he didnt like her although Tang Yun had treated him well.
But he never lied, so he said. I dont know. I just dont like her.
Jing Yichen asked subconsciously, Then whom do you like?
Tigerughed in a good natured way and answered without thinking. Ms. Shangguan!
Jing Yichen understood that Tiger didnt mean it in that way.
An elegant and beautiful figure formed in his head when he heard the name. His expression turned gentle.
His heart was moved. It was rare for him to have such a talk with Tiger.
Why do you like her? I dont think that she has never given you any benefits. And you havent known each other for long, either.
Tiger was baffled by this question. He scratched his head in bewilderment and replied in an unsure manner, I like her because she has NEVER given me any benefits. And she greets me graciously. She is a good person!
Upon hearing these words, Jing Yichen smiled.

Chapter 36: She Was the Chosen One?
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Although Tiger was simple-minded, yet he could understand clearly whether someone was treating him true-heartedly or not.
He wasnt able to express his meaning clearly, but Jing Yichen understood what he meant.
He was the sessor of Jingsheng Enterprise, and Tiger was the man who stayed by his side all the time. Anyone who knew about him would try to establish a friendship with Tiger and to offer him some benefits either in public or on the sly. But they wouldnt think that a bodyguard like him was worth anything. Besides, the majority of people would get disdainful and stay away from Tiger when they saw him acting cruelly.
But Shangguan Ning had never been biased against him. Even though Tiger broke her cousins arm, she didnt think of Tiger as someone horrible.
She never bribed Tiger. Nor had she ever looked down upon him. She greeted him whenever she met him, and regarded him as a normal person.
That was why Tiger feltfortable around her and liked her.
It created ripples inside Jing Yichens heart.
Did he find her special because she regarded him as an ordinary man as well and couldnt stop himself from approaching her?
She didnt even know his name yet! And she was really good at keeping her wits around her.
She must be aware that he was from an extraordinary background, but she had never asked him a single thing. She was aware that he was really good-looking, but she hadnt tried to get close to him even though she got distracted by his look, sometimes.
Her eyes were so pure and clear, and was blessed with a heart so kind and determined.
It showed that she didnt bend down to someone with extraordinary identity, nor did she get obsessed by their magnificent appearance.
He couldnt help but feel rxed around her. He could be himself when he was with her rather than being a sessor of an enterprise that was worth 100 billion RMB, a man with a heavy load on his shoulders.
That was why Jing Yichen didnt want to tell her his real name.
He was afraid that she would stay away from him if he told her the truth.
Their rtionship was great at present. When she recovered, they could go and y tennis together, go for car racing together, go and eat together and go... on a date together.
During the past 32 years, he had never loved anyone. He wasnt sure if this was what love was like. Irrespectively, he didnt want to miss being with Shangguan Ning.
Jing Yichen, who had been living a magnificent life till date, lost sleep for the very first time because of a woman.
He got up when the day just broke.
Tiger, who was awake throughout the entire night, came with a piece of news C ck Wind of ck-red Association had escaped.
Jing Yichen wasnt surprised. Tiger had gone to catch the man at ck-red Association as soon as he returned from America. But he had been toote.
He sneered. Escaped?
No one had, or ever would escape out of his palm.
It seemed that ck Wind had apparently lied regarding Guo Shuais incident. It was okay, because he was certainly going to make him tell the truth. Someone was watching Shangguan Ning on the sly and he wasnt going to tolerate it. He was surely going to find out the truth.
Lying to him, would cost that man a great deal!
Tiger, bring our men and smash the headquarters of ck-red Association! If ck Knife wont hand over the man within seven days, then we will destroy them from the roots! Jing Yichen sounded calm.
To destroy one of the most powerful gangsters in A City was as easy as swatting a fly for him.
Tiger was always interested in fights. He answered good-naturedly, Yes, Master! I am on it now!
Wait... Jing Yichen suddenly thought of something as a cold smile hovered over his face. Take Mu Qing along, he will probably save you some effort.
After Tiger left, Jing Yichen had breakfast and drove to meet the shareholders of the Enterprise. He had met all of the big shareholders till now, and was now meeting all the remaining, small ones so as to gain the support of everyone.
It would make the situation less troublesome when he took over the office from next Monday.
He spent the entire morningpleting the business affairs. The shareholders suggested lunch with him so as to strengthen their rtionship.
But Jing Yichen turned it down.
Their interests were connected tightly together and lunch wouldnt make any difference. Their rtionship would be strong as long as he could bring abundant profits for them.
He returned to Landscape Compound and went straight to the sixth floor.
Shangguan Ning was working on finding the information about Jingsheng Enterprise when the bell rang.
Could it be Aunt who came to visit her again?
Shangguan Nings head was aching, so she thought of pretending as if she werent at home. But then she thought that she wasnt going to be able to hide forever, so why not just confront it now?
A tall, familiar man with royal charisma stood in front of her when she opened the door.
She was a bit startled, but let out a huge sigh of relief simultaneously.
Thank God that it wasnt Aunt.
What are you doing here, Mr. Zhao? Anything wrong?
Seeing her relieved expression, Jing Yichens lip curled at the corner and he asked her a question, instead of replying, Is someoneing to im a debt from you?
Shangguan Ning gasped. She looked at him in astonishment. Was she so apparent?
This man was simply too smart. No wonder Zhao Aana said that his IQ and EQ scores could be registered in the Guinness Book of World records!
All of Jing Yichens tiredness disappeared at the sight of her widened eyes and her lovely expressions.
But her look made him feel a little helpless. Why was she so bad at hiding things? That would bring her trouble.
She was standing at the door, showing no sign of letting him in.
You heartless woman! He had helped her so much, but howe she didnt even have the intention of repaying him? It wouldnt hurt her to let hime in for a cup of water.
Jing Yichen handed her the thing in his palm and replied. You left the medicine in my car.
Oh, thank you for getting that for me! Shangguan Ning said gratefully.
Mu Qing had prescribed two medicines. But she had only brought the one which she received at Jing Yichens vi and left the medicine prescribed at Family Mus Hospital, in his car.
He delivered it to her in person. She was both thankful and a little confused.
Before she realized it, Jing Yichen had pushed her aside and entered her home without an invitation. She was a bit displeased. This man had no clue! It was impolite of him to enter a girls home without permission.
But hadnt she been to his home, gotten examined by a doctor there, eaten and slept there too?
Shangguan Ning found herself petty-minded at this thought. So she forgave Jing Yichens intruding.
It looked a bit messy in the apartment. The newspapers and magazines which she had collected were lying all over the living room.
Shangguan Ning felt a bit ashamed. I am acquainting myself with some information. So it is a bit messy here. Sit wherever you want. What would you like to drink?
Jing Yichen knew that his intruding would surely cause her unhappiness. But he never expected that she would adjust to it so fast.
It seemed that she was a woman who could adapt quickly to the changing environment, and ept new things easily.
Ha, he had just discovered another merit of hers.
Tea, please! He echoed casually, as he sat down on the sofa and threw a look at the newspapers and magazines which were scattered all over the table.
But after a moment, he frowned. His rxed expression was getting colder and colder.
The only thing that was mentioned in the newspapers and magazines, was nothing other than C Jingsheng Enterprise!
The webpage open on her whiteptop at the tables corner showed: The Introduction of Jing Zhongxiu, President of Jingsheng Enterprise!
Chapter 37 - The Wolf and the RabbitThe Wolf and the Rabbit
Chapter 37: The Wolf and the Rabbit
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
She was collecting information about Jingsheng Enterprise. She was reading his fathers brief introduction.
Why??
His brain went nk for a second and then started to think fast.
Suddenly, a possibility hit his brain.
He felt a bit anxious inside, and a voice kept echoing inside his head, making him want to test his spection at this very moment.
He left Shangguan Nings home immediately, took the elevator up to the 27th floor, strode into his own home and turned on theputer.
The e-mail his father Jing Zhongxiu sent to him in the morning was still lying there, innocently.
For a moment, Jing Yichen got a bit scared to open this mail.
But his hands acted faster than his brain. He clicked the mouse and opened the mail. A CV popped up before his eyes.
Shangguan Ning, female, 26 years old. A Doctor with overseas degree from New Zend, major:...
Jing Yichen was unable to catch any of the remaining contents in the CV. The name Shangguan Ning had filled up his sightpletely.
He tried hard to calm himself down. A little while ago, he had thought that Shangguan Ning was trying to approach him with some purpose whilst pretending not to know him.
Yet at this moment, it seemed that she really didnt know who he was.
Too much concern caused too much mess. He had cared so much about her that such a mistake had been made. He had not made such a low-level mistake in a very long time.
He had be used to thinking about the worst side of everyone after fighting in the smokeless battlefield for so long.
Her pure eyes couldnt lie. Although she had not let him in just now, yet she didnt prevent him from intruding either.
So she was his fathers spy? Someone his father ced next to him so that he could be supervised and disturbed?
She had just mentioned that she was filling herself with some knowledge. It would have been his father who came up with this idea of cing her next to him. Besides, she couldnt have known her father well. Otherwise, she wouldnt have needed to look him up on the inte.
It took only a few minutes for Jing Yichen to sort out the entire thing in his head.
She had been fired by the school and became jobless. With some unknown contact she managed to enter Jingsheng Enterprise.
He would still need to verify her rtionship with his father.
Jing Yichen folded up theptop, adjusted the creaseless shirt and came back to the sixth floor.
On the 6th floor, Shangguan Ning was boiling water for tea in the kitchen and when she came to the living room with the tray, she found that the unexpected guest had just disappeared.
The room was empty, the newspapers and magazines were still lying in a mess over the table. It looked as if he had never been here.
Shangguan Ning blinked hard, hoping that what she saw just now hadnt been an illusion.
Ding...
The ringing sound of the doorbell brought the self-doubting Shangguan Ning back to Earth. She got even more confused when she opened the door and saw the man standing outside the door.
Why... are you outside? Actually, what she meant to say was Cwhy are you acting like a swift shadow!
Jing Yingchen found her lovely, seeing her white hands holding the exquisite dark-red enameled teapot and her eyes sparkling with apparent confusion.
His heart softened, and he felt guilty for having made a big fuss a few minutes ago. He had been cheated too many times for him to even remember what trust was like.
He took the teapot from her hand smoothly and whispered, Careful. It is hot.
Shangguan Ning almost lost her defence against Jing Yichens low, musical voice. She couldnt help but hand over the teapot.
She didnte back to her senses until Jing Yichen walked past her. It seemed that something was wrong. She had never been a confused person and always had her own opinions about things. She was hardly controlled by anyone. She was a determined person and never doubted herself.
However, she became more and more self-doubting after knowing Jing Yichen. Was it because he was too smart for her to catch up?
But she was smart too.
Her mind would getpletely scattered if it went on like this.
Baffled, Shangguan Ning came to the living room and watched Jing Yichen make the tea. He was proficient at the process of washing and pouring the tea.
He had a handsome face and elegant charisma. He handled the tea making process, skillfully and smoothly. The vapours of tea were creating a water-ink painting of him, one that was pleasing to the eyes.
She shook her head, wiped the image from a moment ago off her brain and started to put away the things on the table.
Jing Yichen asked in a careless tone, What are you reading about?
Information about Jingsheng Enterprise. Shangguan Ning waved the newspapers in hand and answered without thinking.
Jing Yichens heart twitched. He asked again in a low voice. Why are you filling yourself up with information about Jingsheng Enterprise?
Shangguan Ning put away the paper and stuff, and answered happily without knowing that he was trying to extract a secret out of her. Oh, I just remembered that I havent told you about this. I will start to work at Jingsheng Enterprise next Monday. Everyone there is quite capable. I havent got any working experience so I have to take thisst-minute opportunity to read more about the enterprise.
Jing Yichen took a sip at the fresh and sweet Longjing Tea leisurely and said without much expression, I have a friend who is working there. Maybe he can watch out for you.
Shangguan Ning got so pleased. A pie had just fallen from the sky for her hungry stomach.
Oh really? That would be great. I am quite nervous as a newbie, because I know no one there! Happily, she started to pour the tea for Jing Yichen.
Sitting on the soft sofafortably, Jing Yichen was happy being served by this beauty whilst trying to lead her to talk about what he wanted to know.
What is your position? Is it in line with your professional skill?
Shangguan Ning hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth. Anyways, Jing Yichens friend would surely get to know what her position was after she started the work. Hiding the truth didnt help. Instead, it might lose others trust of her.
I will be the assistant to the President of Jingsheng Enterprise. Not quite in line with my professional skills. That is why I am worried.
As far as I know, only people with rich working experience are able to be an assistant to the President. You are indeed a bit inexperienced. Jing Yichen said.
Then he smiled and said in a friendly way, Seems that both you and my friend would find thismon between you.
Jing Yichen sounded quite rxed as if he found it amon thing.
But Shangguan Ning didnt sound relieved at all.
He had known everything about her after exchanging a few words. That made her a bit scared and astonished.
The reason why she was able to sit here calmly was only because her instinct was telling her that he didnt mean any harm.
But she didnt want anyone else to know that she had entered Jingsheng Enterprise because of her uncle. She wasnt afraid of any rumor about her behind her back. But she was worried that her aunt would try various methods to ruin everything as soon as she knew about it.
Shangguan Ning didnt say anything. She smiled slightly, took the tea cup and started to drink.
Seeing her remain silent, Jing Yichen knew that he had got it right C his father had stuffed her to his side to do someone else a favor.
Chapter 38 - Prince picked up the Princess from the Market

Jing Yichen felt immensely relieved in his heart. As long as she wasnt his fathers spy, all was well.
He couldnt help butugh at this thought. Father would surely spy on him in secret by getting someone who was cunning and at an inconspicuous position, rather than the one who was constantly by Jing Yichens side.
But it was clear that the man behind Shangguan Ning must be a really good friend of his fathers, otherwise she would not have been given such a high position.
So, she would be by his side every day and work with him every minute?
It seemed that the uing work suddenly became something to look forward to.
Jing Yichen finished his tea and said with a casual air, Its time for lunch. Your treat today.
Shangguan Ning was a mild tempered woman. But today, she got worked up and burst intoughter by his repeatedly shameless behavior. I have never met anyone who is as confident as you to ask for a treat.
Jing Yichen didnt feel ashamed at all. He replied in a teasing manner. What a stingy woman! It is just lunch.
He had turned down so many people, who begged to eat with him. And she dared to find him annoying when he asked to have lunch with her.
You found such a high level job as soon as you lost your old one. Isnt it fair that you treat me and I celebrate it with you?
Shangguan Ning threw a look at him but immediately turned away.
Damn, not only was he good looking, but also blessed with a super attractive voice.
Sitting on the sofa, he looked extremely desirable. If she hadnt been determined, stubborn and hurt by someone good-looking earlier in her life, she would probably have fallen for him at this very moment.
Shangguan Ning found herself feeling weird again. She took a deep breath, and waited till her heartbeat became stable.
Then she said calmly, I will treat you to lunch.
Jing Yichen nodded and stood up. Then, Lets go.
Landscape Compound was located in the outskirts. It was not very populous and there were very few restaurants around.
Jing Yichen had just moved here and he never ate outside. So he had very little knowledge about the restaurants in the area. Although Shangguan Ning had lived here for more than half a year, she also had hardly eaten at any of these restaurants.
They failed to find any suitable eatery after driving around for half an hour.
Shangguan Ning had been tolerant all this while but now she burst out. Must you be so critical about food?
They had passed some restaurants just now and all looked nice, but Jing Yichen rejected all of them. They would not be able to eat anything if they kept saying no to every ce.
Oh well, I have a high-level taste. Jing Yichen seemed to be in a good mood, so he said it in a teasing tone.
Shangguan Ning was totally defeated by his shamelessness. After getting to know him a little, she realised that he was cold on the surface and evil in heart.
Hungry? Jing Yichen asked in a gentle tone when he saw Shangguan Nings palm-sized face puckering.
Hmm. Shangguan Ning nodded.
She hesitated for a moment and said, What about... buying some ingredients and I can make you some food at home!
Jing Yichens lips curved into a smile.
After making so many efforts, the girl finally understood. That was exactly what he had been waiting to hear!
But... he couldnt say it too conspicuously.
You can cook?
Yes, and I cook well too! Shangguan Ning boasted shamelessly.
She was a bit under confident in her heart but still kept up a I am excellent expression on her face.
A smile hovered over Jing Yichens face. He had been cheated by the confidence on Shangguan Nings face, and raised his expectations.
The two of them entered the supermarket, picked some ingredients and went towards the cashier. There were many people in the supermarket during the lunch hour, and most of them were women.
Jing Yichen looked so extraordinarily good that many people were staring at him throughout. There were even some young girls who asked him for an autograph with flushed face C they had mistaken him for a celebrity.
Had it not been for his cold attitude, there would have been a lot more people who would havee and ask for his autograph.
Jing Yichen was used to being stared. He ignored everyone who asked him for autograph. Instead, he only focused upon picking the things in the market. He almost never went to supermarket, so this experience was fun for him.
But Shangguan Ning beside him wasnt used to this situation. She was okay with being stared at, but they stared at her in such a piercing way as if she had done something horrible. She was feeling extremely ufortable.
She looked at Jing Yichen who was totally unaffected. It was his fault for being so good-looking that he attracted so many girls!
She picked some vegetables and pulled Jing Yichen away from there. She would be pierced with holes by peoples eyes if they stayed there.
Jing Yichens heart flowed with an unnamed emotion when the warm, gentle hand took him. He felt that it had been totally worth all that while to be stared at by those women.
It was a long queue at the cashier. Shangguan Ning was walking in front of Jing Yichen but suddenly turned around to say something to him.
But Jing Yichen walked too fast and she ended up crashing into his arms when she suddenly stopped. His chest was warm and strong, and she fell into himpletely. It hurt her a bit.
When Jing Yichen felt the two meatballs on her chest touching him, it made his heart beat really fast.
It was of course Shangguan Nings front chest that hurt. But she couldnt massage her chest in public.
Seeing her troubled face, Jing Yichen couldnt help but chuckle.
Her white face flushed instantly. She looked up and red at him. So he wasughing at her after he had taken advantage of her!
She grabbed the things in Jing Yichens hands. Wait for me outside. I will go and pay. She didnt want his face to make those aunts and young girls scream any more.
She sounded dominating with this kind of imperative tone.
That was the tone Jing Yichen had hated the most before. But for some reason, he really liked her in this way. He tried hard to control himself and not touch her smooth hair. He nodded and walked out of the supermarket.
Shangguan Ning found a cashier with few customers, paid quickly and carried the things out of the supermarket.
Jing Yichens luxurious silver white Aston Martin was parked right at the entry of the supermarket. He was dressed in a white suit, and wearing a pair of ck sunsses. He looked like a royal person sitting on the drivers seat in a cooly, elegant way.
The scenario was a feast for anyones eyes. Shangguan Ning felt that a prince was picking up a princess from the market to take her home.
Jing Yichen got out of the car, gracefully when he saw Shangguan Ninging out of the supermarket. He took the things from her hands and ced them in the trunk. Then he pulled open the door for her, stretched out his hand to protect her head as she was going into the passengers seat.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but smile at his behaviour. She felt that Jing Yichen acted as if he was in a theater. She never expected that someone so cold could have been so gentle.
The top-notch sports car was taking the two of them through the traffic. What they didnt notice was that someone had been watching them for a long time.
Chapter 39 - I Will Strip If You Want to Take a Look
Chapter 39: I Will Strip If You Want to Take a Look
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Rouxue was about to enter the supermarket holding onto Xie Zhuojuns arm, when she saw Shangguan Ninging out of the supermarket and led gently into the car by a tall man.
The mans back was facing her, so she couldnt see his face. But judging from the body shape and the charisma, it could be seen clearly that he was an extraordinary person, someone who was several levels higher than Xie Zhuojun next to her.
Also, she noticed immediately that the man was driving the top-notch luxurious sports car Aston Martin, one that Xie Zhuojun had been longing to have.
Unfortunately, however, Xie Zhuojun was always reluctant to buy the car. He only had bought a model of the car.
She looked at the man beside her, and let out an astonished sigh after Shangguan Ning and the man drove some distance away. Zhuojun, I seem to have seen my sister.
Xie Zhuojun was startled. His eyes started to look around immediately. Where?
Shangguan Rouxue shook her head sadly. Maybe I am wrong. I miss her so much. I want to know if she is doing well.
Seeing his beloved girls sad face, Xie Zhuojuns heart ached. You are being too kind. That is why she bullies you at her will. She has her own life to live and you have your own. Dont worry about her any more, or you will get the worst of it in the end.
As he spoke, he was suddenly reminded that he hadnt asked her about Shangguan Nings dismissal. He hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice.
Shangguan Rouxue was apparently a bit surprised. Then she said with a soft voice in a guilty tone, Oh, Zhuojun, you know about it?
I... eh... didnt n to tell you. Daddy has talked with the principal about her dismissal. The matter has been suppressed. This news wont spread. Dont worry.
Xie Zhuojun was getting confused. He got a bit irritated but he kept his temper down and asked, What happened?
She... she... Shangguan Rouxue seemed reluctant. She whispered after a short while, She, a male teacher and a male student were... you know, in the office and were caught on the spot by the school. The students parents had made a huge fuss in the school. But Daddy suppressed the whole thing with a lot of money...
Xie Zhuojun felt an explosion in his brain.
What?! He didnt catch it wrong, did he?
Had Shangguan Ning seduced a male teacher and a student?!
That was impossible!
But if it had not been true, why would school fire Shangguan Ning without considering Deputy- Mayors reputation.
His face turned very bad. No wonder Shangguan Rouxue didnt n to tell him. She must have thought that it was too shameful a matter to be recounted to him.
So stupid of him to have almost believed Shangguan Ning!
What a shameful thing that he had once been engaged with such a woman before!
Seeing rage hovering over Xie Zhuojuns face, Shangguan Rouxue exined quickly, Dont be angry, Zhuojun. Dont you understand what kind of person my sister is? She must have been wronged. The school must have got it wrong! We can ask her ourselves and listen to her story when we have a chance in the future.
There is nothing to ask. Her shameful deed must have been discovered by the school. Uncle Shangguan would have kept her well if it had been a misunderstanding. Uncle Shangguan loves her so much after all. The rage behind Xie Zhuojuns words couldnt be concealed.
He was talking loudly to Shangguan Rouxue, and his handsome face was a bit distorted, his usual gentleness and elegancepletely gone.
Shangguan Rouxue got startled. For the first time, she found Xie Zhuojun scary.
Fortunately, however, he wasnt referring to her. He had always been the gentlest to her.
Having heard this matter, Xie Zhuojun hadpletely lost the mood to visit the supermarket. He massaged between his eyebrows, hardly able to conceal the irritation. But he still said in a gentle tone. Lets go home, Xue. I dont want to buy anything today. I will go out with you some other day.
Shangguan Rouxues face froze but soon returned to a natural status. She took his arms gently. Okay, lets go home.
But they were about to leave when Shangguan Rouxue upset her huge hat in a seemingly idental way. She was recognized instantly.
Many people gathered around and wanted to have a photograph clicked with her and asked for an autograph from her .
She was a very famous hostess in A City. Due to her graceful appearance, sweet voice as well as the fresh and elegant charisma, she had be the top hostess at the television station of A City in less than two years time. Many old and experienced hostess were down in poprity because of her.
She hadnt made much efforts to hide herself when she was out today. So she was recognized instantly after the hat slipped.
She grinned at everyone, took pictures and signed autographs in a gentle and generous way.
People apuded and cheered for her behavior.
Xie Zhuojun kept himself away from her and stood a short distance away. He watched Shangguan Rouxue who was extolled by the public and was shining among the crowd. She would receive so much attention with him along the side.
A strange sense of satisfaction filled up his heart. He had forgotten everything about Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning had no awareness of the undercurrent and liveliness here. She was fiddling with the vegetables in a good mood.
She had very little experience with food making. But that didnt prevent her from having the ambition to show off her skills.
Jing Yichen walked into the kitchen and found the woman, who imed herself a wonderful cook, pouring the oil into the pot whilst checking up A Collection of Home Food on the phone.
He couldnt help but feel worried about his own stomach. Ms. Shangguan, are you sure you can cook?
Shangguan Ning red at him and said with dignity, All is written here! I can read, okay!
Jing Yichen was finally sure now C Shangguan Ning couldnt cook at all!
He grinned, rolled up his sleeves, washed his hands and put the panicking woman aside. You do the dishester. Leave this to me, now.
Shangguan Nings eyes were full of doubt seeing Jing Yichen who was dressed in apletely white suit. He was a Master from a wealthy family! He must have been pampered and served every day. She would be the God of Chef if he could cook.
Jing Yichen ignored Shangguan Nings doubt. He ced his long fingers upon the crystal button, took off his coat elegantly and flung it to her. Wait outside. It will be ready soon.
Shangguan Nings throat dried up seeing him unbuttoning the suit. When the suit was flung to her, his fragrance reached her senses. She flushed and her heart palpitated.
She was a normal woman who wanted to want to fling herself at the sight of his perfect body.
Shangguan Ning carefully held the tailor-made, suit which had been made with expensive material, in her arms and tried to cover her anxiety by smiling. Only top coat? Why not pants too?
She wanted to p herself after she said that.
Are you crazy, Shangguan Ning? Did you know what you just said?
A gleam shed across Jing Yichens eyes. He raised his eyebrows. Oh, I didnt know there is such a rule at Ms. Shangguans home. Alright, guest will obey the host. I will strip if you want to take a look!
He said as he stretched out his hands to remove the belt.
Startled, Shangguan Ning shut her eyes instantly. With a loud scream, she ran out of the kitchen with the suit covering her face.
Chapter 40 - So Jing Yichen Had a Problem with That Thing?
Chapter 40: So Jing Yichen Had a Problem with That Thing?
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yichens lowughter reached Shangguan Ning, who was standing outside the kitchen. It made her want to be swallowed by the ground, out of shame. It was not until she ran out of the kitchen did she realize that Jing Yichen was just teasing her. He had no intention of stripping!
Too bad that she was so inexperienced with men. Otherwise she would not have made a fool of herself.
She flung his white suit onto the sofa in annoyance, picked up the tea from the table, that had gone cold and gulped it down. Finally she felt that the heat on her face had subsided.
Delectable smells were emanating from the kitchen. The fragrance and vor were so tempting that Shangguan Ning couldnt help but drool.
Could he really cook?
Her confusion didntst long. Half an hourter, Jing Yichen carried the dishes to the living room.
Limited ingredients. Just put up with it.
He had donned on her pink apron, and his sleeves were folded up. If it had been an ordinary man who was dressed in this way, he would have looked quite funny. But not Jing Yichen. He still looked ssy, dressed in this way. Even the most ordinary apron failed to disguise his royal and elegant charisma.
Maybe because he had been cooking, he seemed more approachable, making him look less cold than before. Shangguan Ning felt that this behaviour of his, made her morefortable.
Jing Yichen had cooked three dishes and a bowl of soup C wok of shrimps and scallions, broli wok, braised eggnt and mushroom soup.
They had been in a hurry at the supermarket today, so Shangguan Ning had casually snatched up everything except the fresh shrimps which were carefully selected by Jing Yichen.
And she didnt have any meat in the fridge except for some frozen dumplings and glutinous rice balls.
So he was right about limited ingredients.
Shangguan Nings eyes brimmed with tears, seeing the food. It had been years since she ate these kind of homemade dishes. She couldnt cook and no one cooked for her.
She forced back her tears and with a lovely smile, said I will eat up all of it. It doesnt matter whether the food is delicious or not!
A feeling of satisfaction flowed in his heart at the sight of happiness on her pure face.
He had learnt to cook only because he didnt like the dishes cooked by others. And now, he had something else to look forward to.
He was not able to control his feelings any more. He massaged the top of her head with hisrge hands and said gently. Just eat until you are full. It is okay to waste.
I would cook for you again in the future if you want.
Shangguan Nings hand that held the chopsticks froze. She felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
She had always thought that hair had no sensation. Why then, did she get the feeling of an electrical shock when he touched her hair?
Had she been so hungry that she became silly?
She grinned, picked up a shrimp and stuffed it into her mouth, disguising her emotions.
But then, her tongue got a shock.Fresh and tender, smooth and delicious. The original freshness of the shrimps remained.
So good! Shangguan Ning gasped in sincere admiration after she had tasted every dish. Each dish had updated her knowledge about food.
As she was drinking the delicious mushroom soup, she surveyed Jing Yichen with a weird look. He was removing the apron and sitting himself down at that moment.
He was totally unreasonable! Wealthy, good-looking, charismatic, intelligent and good at cooking!
Most importantly, a man like this was still unmarried! No, no, still single. That was almost impossible !
Shangguan Nings mouth moved but her brain was churning. She was suddenly reminded of what Zhao Anan said before, about her brother C he lived clean and never approached women.
That sounded like apliment but also, it explicitly indicated that there was something wrong with this man.
Could it be that... Jing Yichen had problem with that thing?
Or, did he like men?
She stared at the man who was seated opposite her and was eating elegantly, looking handsome as usual. She couldnt help but sigh in her heart. He really had the ability to conquer both men and women.
A feeling of happiness and satisfaction filled his heart when Jing Yichen saw Shangguan Ning savouring the food cooked by him.
But the way she looked at him was somehow weird.
He subconsciously wiped his lips corner, but there was no rice there!
As high as Jing Yichens IQ and EQ was, he was still unable to read peoples mind. What he was not able to realize at this moment was that just by cooking a meal, he had been categorised as impotent in her list. A genius like him would never be able to understand this illogical way of thinking.
If he knew that Shangguan Ning was thinking in this way, then he would probably give all the food here to the dogs instead. At least dogs were loyal enough to repay the favor whilst Shangguan Ning was just someone with no gratitude!
Both the guest and the maker were satisfied with this meal.
After the meal, Shangguan Ning went into the kitchen to do the dishes, whilst Jing Yichen sat down on the sofa and started to prepare another round of the tea.
The sunshine in the afternoon shone into the living room through therge ceiling-to-floor window. It was warm, nice, and quiet just like home.
Seeing the busy and slender figure in the kitchen, Jing Yichen suddenly felt that if he could spend the rest of his life in this way, it would be amazing. He was a man with a strong self-control. He didnt indulge himself although he really enjoyed the beautiful hours that the two of them spent together.
Shangguan Ning was unable to run away now. They would have much more time to spend together in the future.
He had invested a great deal of timeing here today.
There were still many things left for him to handle at work, and he ought to leave now.
Business was a mans strongest power. Only by being powerful enough would he be able to give her a stable and happy life. Love and marriage were two separate concepts. What he wanted was always more than love.
He had been pretty sure of that.
Therefore, when Shangguan Ning finished washing the dishes and came out of the kitchen, there was no one in the living room any more.
The tea was still steaming hot, and his warmth still remained in the room. Shangguan Ning took a look at the scene and her heart let out a sigh.
The two of them had parted, and gone back to whatever they were busy with.
But what Shangguan Ning would never know was that the man who just left, had stirred up the entire legal and illegal corners of A City for her sake.
It was a cold evening, and a sense of foreboding permeated the air.
ck Knife, who was an overweeningly arrogant leader, admired by the gangs, was kicked to the ground at this moment, losing all his dignity.
He dialed the number with a shivering hand and spoke the second the call went through. Master Jing, please tell them to stop! I didnt release ck Wind, and I havent hidden him either. I dont know where he is, and if we get to know, we will get him here without your asking us!
Jing Yichen turned a deaf ear to him and said coldly, Seven days, either a living man or a corpse!
Master Jing, Master Jing! You are putting us in a very difficult situation! If our association was so powerful, then we would have lunged out of A City! I know that he has displeased your woman but she is alright, isnt she? You almost killed himst time anyway. Cant we just let it go?
As he was saying this, he realised that Jing Yichen was still livid. His tone was getting harder and firmer. If you insist on putting the knife into our ck-red Association, then we are all for it! We are not timid people who are afraid of death. We may not be able to beat you directly, but catching a woman like Shangguan Ning by sacrificing some brothers is not a difficult thing for us at all!

Jing Yichen suddenly let out a low pitchedugh, hearing these words.
Hisugh gave out a powerful confidence,arrogance and a kind ofpressed rage that crept ck Knife out.
If you ever dared to touch my woman, you would find out just how hard your life can be! I had nned to let you live for two more days, but it seems that I was just too merciful to you! He sounded so cold like a cutting knife, pressing people down and making them suffocate.
Three days, and you must get ck Wind with your illegal gangs. I have got someone else to catch him legally, so I am not putting you in a bad position. If you fail, you and your ck-red association will vanishpletely.
Jing Yichen hung up the phone after these words and made another call right after that.
Zheng Jing, get a man for me. His name is Yu Dabao, nicknamed as ck Wind. He has killed at least thirteen men and was wanted by the police six years ago...
Wow, Master Jing. You either ignore mepletely or contact me with such a huge present! We police have wanted to get this man for a long time! I have nothing to repay you with except my sister. What about marrying her to you? The mans voice on the phone sounded loud and justified as if he were a man of justice.
But what he said didnt sound so reliable. He had sold out his sister with just two words.
The sooner, the better. I will give you more detailed clues tomorrow. I will wait for your message. Jiang Yichen said, not paying much attention to Zheng Jings unimportant words.
Jing Yichen didnt stop until he made several other calls in a row, at home and abroad.
Jing Yichens heart filled with resentment, thinking of the scenario if ck Wind wasnt caught.
The following day, Yu Dabao, which was the real name of the second director of ck-red Association, rolled up the entire A City like a st. He was wanted, both, by the illegal and legal groups at any cost.
Word said that it was only because he annoyed a woman.
What kind of woman was that? No one knew. So the woman had been hailed as a Goddess in the story.
And this Goddess, with her head feeling dizzy, was checking out one apartment after another with a realtor.
It was a very cold day, and Shangguan Ning had not recoveredpletely. The wound on the back of her head ached a little. What was worse, her period came on this day and her belly ached too.
She had spent the entire morning walking and now she had run out of energy.
She had no other choice. Time was running out. New Year was just around the corner. She had promised Aunt that she would move out before the New Year and she would have no time to look for an apartment when she started to work at Jingsheng Enterprise in a couple of days.
The realtor also noticed that Shangguan Ning was under the weather. So she asked in concerned, Are you feeling unwell, Ms. Shangguan? You look so pale? What about meeting another day instead of today?
Shangguan Ning forced a smile on her pale face. She spoke with her teeth clenched, Thank you. I am okay. Lets just get it done today. That model apartment you talked about seems to suit me well.
Hearing that an apartment might be sold today, the realtor immediately went to help her. Okay, just hold on, it is not very far.
Shangguan Ning took a nce at the model apartment when they finally arrived there and said instantly. Okay, this one will do.
This model apartment was exquisitely embellished and fully furnished, which could save her a great deal of time in setting up. Both the type and the upation were quite suitable as well. The price was proper because it was a model.
She was not particr about a ce to stay at this moment as she needed a ce to move into, urgently.
Besides, she was just too tired to walk any further.
She felt the day ckening out in front of her eyes. It could have been because of the wound on the back of her head which caused her to have a splitting headache, or because of her belly that was hurting just as much.
Shangguan Ning sat herself down on the sofa with hands against the wall. With much pain, she scooped out a card and handed it over to the woman and said feebly. Please help me pay the bill. I will be waiting for you here. Thank you!
She was not particr about a ce to stay at this moment when she needed a ce to stay urgently.
Seeing the client paying so quickly, the salesgirl was willing to even run ten times for the affair. She took the card smilingly and ran out of the room for the payment.
But when she returned, she found that this golden owner had passed out on the sofa, and blood was dripping down alongside her smooth long hair, staining the white carpet red.
The salesgirl almost passed out. She ran out, screaming. The gifts that the apartment sales office had given to Shangguan Ning ,dropped all over the ground and out of her hands.
...
The temperatures were freezing outside the room, yet it was so warm and spring like, inside the room. Shangguan Ning fell into a moment of nkness when she woke up in a strange ce.
But she came back to her senses quickly. She was in the hospital C Family Mus Hospital which she had visited before.
The man guarding by her side asked concernedly seeing her waking up. Ning, you are awake now? Still hurt anywhere?
Only at that moment did Shangguan Ning notice that someone was sitting by her bedside. Her eyes widened in surprise. Uncle!? C She said, as she tried to sit up and speak with him, but the wound on the back of her head, stung .
Huang Lihan pressed her down and said in an using tone, Just lie down. I am your uncle, your family. No need to be so courteous.
Shangguan Ning paused, and the pain reduced. Then she smiled. I was not... I was just acting subconsciously.
Tell me if it hurts anywhere else. I will get the doctor here. I was so scared on the way here How did you injure your head? Huang Liyan felt his heart ache at the sight of this beautiful niece whose face was pale and looked thinner than she had been, a month ago.
I tripped. It is okay. Dont worry, I will be fine soon! Shangguan Ning lied without even blinking. If she spoke the truth, Uncle would definitely kill Guo Shuai.
But, why am I at the hospital? I was just checking...
She quickly swallowed down the word apartment when she realized that she had almost spoken it aloud. She changed her word and asked, How did you know that I was at the hospital?
Seeing that his Niece still refused to be honest, Huang Liyan was both angry and concerned.
The apartment sales office found my number on your phone and asked me toe to the hospital. Why are you buying an apartment somewhere else? Did Aunt pick on you again? Why are you bearing the burden of everything alone rather than sharing your worries with your Uncle?
Shangguan Ning understood now. The staff at the apartment sales office must have used her phone to call her Uncle seeing her passed out. Her phone was codeless and her Uncles number was saved as the only family member in her phone.
But she didnt know how to answer her Uncles questions.
It had indeed been her Aunt who forced her out. She kept hiding that from Uncle because she didnt want him to get mad. But he knew that too.
Aunt didnte to me. I wanted to move out myself. It has nothing to do with Aunt. Shangguan Ning said in a low voice. I want to leave the apartment to Cousin. She has always been fond of apound with good scenery. That apartment suits her well.

Chapter 42: Jing Zhongxiu, the Top Boss
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Huang Lihan would not have developed Family Huangs Real Estate business to such arge scale, all by himself, if he had been so gullible. He didnt believe a single word of what Shangguan Ning had just said.
Besides, he knew his wife and daughter too well. They couldnt tolerate anything good given to his niece. His wife had made a huge scene when he gave Shangguan Ning this apartment earlier, also.
He took a deep breath and said guiltily, Ning, I am sorry to have let you suffer. I am a real estate agent and my niece ends up buying an apartment somewhere else. Your mother would definitely be sad if she saw all of this.
Shangguan Ning didnt dare to tell her Uncle about buying this apartment because she didnt want him to think in this way. So she waved her hand quickly upon hearing these words and said, Uncle, dont overthink. You have been the nicest to me at all times and given me the best of everything. I got whatever Cousin got. My mother would be very happy having an elder brother like you who is taking care of her daughter. She would not be sad at all!
Silly girl. You are getting more and more understanding. I am so happy as an Uncle. Huang Lihan suppressed the bitterness in his heart and said with relief in his voice.
You can continue to live at Landscape Compound, dont worry. The apartment is yours the moment it was given to you. As for the apartment you just bought, I wont pay it on your behalf but you can get one more share at Family Huangs Real Estate.
Shangguan Ning was surprised. Thats not right, Uncle! I object!
Huang Lihan gave her shoulder a soft pat. Thats it. No more excuses. Thats the deal. That is all Uncle can give to you.
Shangguan Ning was about to say something when she was interrupted by the sound of knocking at the door.
Then a tall, strong middle aged man walked in.
He was walking firmly, and his salt and pepper hair was well kept. Dressed in a navy suit, he looked elegant and graceful. His eyes were shining with vitality, and the dignity and nobility that surrounded him made people want to keep looking at him.
He was still handsome even if he was a middle aged man. It could be seen clearly that he must have been an extremely good looking man when he was younger.
Shangguan Ning found this man familiar, but she couldnt remember where had she met him.
That manughed seeing Shangguan Ning staring at him. Girl, you are awake? Are you feeling better?
Shangguan Ning was even more confused hearing him speak in such a familiar way.
Huang Lihan couldnt help butugh upon seeing her bewildered expression. Ning, this is your Uncle Jing. He gave you a basket of fish and you still found him annoying!
Gave her fish? Uncle Jing?
Jing Zhongxiu!
Her uing top boss!
And she had found this boss annoying??
Seeing his niece confused, Huang Lihan patted her hands as heughed. Silly girl. Greet him. You are going to work at his enterprise next week onwards. Take this chance and tter him!
Shangguan Ning recovered quickly, raised herself up and shouted with kindness in a sweet voice. Hello, Uncle Jing! My name is Shangguan Ning, please take care of me when I work at yourpany next week.
For some reason, she found Jing Zhongxius looks quite familiar, not because of the impression she got when she was little C the impression had been too blurry to remember.
Plus, Uncle apparently had a good rtionship with him, so she tried talking in a casual tone to help them connect.
Jing Zhongxiuughed. So much like your uncle! When others are so courteous to me, you didnt regard me as an outsider just like when you were little!
Shangguan Ning smiled shyly. She must have not behaved well back then. She didnt remember what happened in her childhood, only some things rang a bell. She would never have remembered anything if Uncle hadnt reminded her.
Dont worry, Girl. With me around, no one would dare to bully you at Jingsheng. Tramp on anyone you like. Mention me if you run into trouble, then everything will be fine!!
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but grin noticing his sense of humour.
Jing Zhongxiu waspletely different from how she had imagined!
She had thought that he was a big leader who would have an expressionless face and act seriously. Unexpectedly, he was an affable man. It seemed to her that she would enjoy her time in Jingsheng .
Actually, Jing Zhongxiu was a leader who always looked and acted seriously. He was rxed now, only because he was in front of his old friend and a young girl.
Shangguan Nings wound had healed, and the situation didnt seem so bad. So Huang Lihan helped her toplete the procedure and left the hospital. He apanied her to the doorstep before leaving with Jing Zhongxiu.
Huang, your girl... is single, is she?
Huang Lihan got interested at these words. Oh yeah? Anyone in mind?
What about my son?
Startled, Huang Lihan immediately lost his interest. But he still forced himself to ask, Which one? As far as he knew, neither of Jing Zhongxius sons were normal!
The elder one is still unmarried, the younger one cant beat him. Of course, the elder one. Jing Zhongxiu thought carefully as he massaged his chin.
Your girl is neat, lively and pure. My elder son happens to be a very quiet boy who likes taking roundabouts and always thinks deeply. The two of them wouldplement each other well!
My girl is only 26. No hurry! Just wait a bit! Huang Lihan wasnt hustled. He always protected Shangguan Ning as a treasure, and he definitely didnt want to send her to the Jing family and torment her.
He had met Jing Yichen. He was not silent. He was cold and ruthless!
The cold and ruthless Jing Yichen suddenly sneezed.
Who was cursing him?
Tiger draped him with an overcoat seeing Master shivering.
Tiger, check who is the Old President hanging out with recently. He must be doing someone else a favor by getting Shangguan Ning to the enterprise. He normally didnt check on his father, because it had never been necessary.
But this time, he definitely would. Because Shangguan Ning was involved in this matter, and he wanted all to go well.
He trusted Shangguan Ning, but he didnt trust his father.
Tiger replied with a sharp yes and brought the news to him the following morning.
Master, Old President has been hanging out with a real estate agent called Huang Lihan apart from some big shareholders at Jingsheng. Huangs Family Hungs Real Estate has a coboration project with us. It is nned that a new set of buildings is to be developed together. And Huang Lihan is Ms. Shangguans uncle!
Jing Yichen nodded lightly. All was clear now.
He had met Huang Lihan before. He was one of the few close friends his father had. What he didnt expect was that he would turn out to be Shangguan Nings uncle.
In that case, he was certain that Shangguan Ning wasnt his fathers spy, but someone his father temporarily employed at Jingsheng, on Huang Lihans entrustment.
Even if father hadnt employed Shangguan Ning into hispany, Jing Yichen himself had also decided to employ her. But the effect would not have been as good.
His heart was always insecure without her by his side.
After so many years, his father had finally done one thing right.

Chapter 43: Was It a Fair Deal to Buy One and Get Three for Free ?
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Master, Old President and Huang Lihan visited Family Mus Hospital yesterday. They had been talking about the project when Ms. Shangguans old wound bothered her and she passed out at an apartment sales office. Old President and Huang Lihan visited her at the hospital together.
Jing Yichens heart tightened upon hearing that Shangguan Ning had passed out. He lowered his voice, although his face was still cold and expressionless. What happened?C he asked.
Tiger was a single-minded person but he was not silly. He had noticed that Master was treating Ms. Shangguan differently C even ck-red Associations old nest almost got demolished because of her.
He recounted the entire story in details.
Jing Yichens face lost colour after hearing the story.
Why did she go out alone in the freezing winter? She was still acting stubbornly even though she was weak. He had been able to send her to the hospital in time, thest time she fainted in his arms, but who else would be equally attentive like him when she passed out somewhere else!
She made him worry.
Tiger, get some smart guys and protect her on the sly. Dont let her know that.
Jing Yichen had not nned to ce anyone to her side. But she always ran into trouble. Besides, ck Wind had not been caught and since the man behind him failed once, he might try again. ck Knife was also crouching and observing on the sly, so the danger was everywhere.
He needed to make sure that she waspletely safe and sound.
Shangguan Ningy in bed for two days before she gained back some energy.
Her belly didnt hurt much, and the wound on the back of her head, which had still not healedpletely, didnt hurt that much any longer. A couple of days more, and she would be fine.
During these days, she either called for food delivery or ate the frozen dumplings in the fridge. She didnt dare to cause herself trouble by going out again.
She needed to get herself well. She was going to work on Monday.
However, all of these dishes seemed to be vorless after she had tasted the dishes made by Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen, who was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window on the 27th floor, frowned at the sight of the food delivery that entered thepound once again.
A momentter, Tiger pushed the door open and entered. Master, the delivery is for the 6th floor.
Sure enough, it was Shangguan Nings food delivery again.
Why was she still eating takeout food every day? Her body was in need of nutrition, but home delivered food was simple and roughly made C so strange that she could swallow such food down.
Tiger, ask the kitchen to make some more dishes and deliver them to the sixth floor. Dont let her know that it is me.
Tiger grinned. Yes, Master!
Shangguan Ning took over the delivery and paid. Another sound of knocking came when she had just finished half of her food.
She opened the door and was surprised to see that the delivery guy was back!
Miss, we have campaign today C buy one and get three for free. I forgot to give that to you just now! The delivery guy looked guilty.
Shangguan Ning took the food box in doubt and thanked him with a smile.
The delivery guy turned around and dashed off immediately. He was quite happy. He had earned a tip of 500 yuan by just giving the food to that woman. It was all worth it!
Shangguan Ning was totally astonished when she went back to the living room and opened the lunch box.
The ingredients for the two dishes and one soup were well selected, with color, scent and vor all up to the standard. It was definitely not a cheap set at sight. Her delivery cost only 40 yuan, and was it really a fair deal to buy one and get three for free?
She doubted even more.
She tasted the food with hesitation. The feeling of freshness spread all over her tongue and made her eat as quickly as possible. Well, as long as it was tasty!
Hmm, this restaurant had hired an excellent chef,indeed. Almost as excellent as Jing Yichen! Okay, this restaurant would be the selected one from this moment on!
Having finished the tasty food, she started to read the documents of Jingsheng Enterprise immediately. She was going to work the next day and it would always be useful to practice before the work.
When evening came, Shangguan Ning hesitated for a long while before she decided to take a shower.
The doctor had told her not to get her wound wet, otherwise it could get infected easily.
What she had been doing was to clean herself a bit every day. She hadnt showered properly for an entire week, and she couldnt just go to thepany tomorrow for work in this way.
She touched the wound on the back of her head which had started to heal.The wounds on her body were all healed now, leaving almost invisible scars. Mu Qings family medicine was indeed excellent.
Shangguan Ning wrapped the wound on her head with a water-proof bandage, entered the bathroom and showered.
Having finished showering, she dried her hair, put on a sling nightgown and went to bed.
She was dozing when someone knocked at her door.
She got up from the bed, grabbed an overcoat and came to the door as she asked carefully, Who is it?
A familiar womans voice came from outside the door. Ning, this is Aunt. I am visiting you with your cousin!
Shangguan Ning opened the door and looked confused. Aunt? What are you doing here sote at night?
She wasnt imagining this, was she?
Why were Aunt and Cousin so friendly today that they woulde and visit her? Impossible! Aunt and Cousin would never treat her so well even if the world were to end the next day.
Shangguan Ning had seen through this mother and daughter during twenty years of their rtionship.
Uncle must have said something causing them to have a change of heart, she thought.
It was never good to p a smiling face. So, even though they were pretending to be so friendly, she epted that willingly C as long as Uncle was not stuck in the dilemma. She was also friendly with them.
Lin Yu rushed in to Shangguan Nings room and pulled her daughter in with ufortable expression. She nced at everything in Shangguan Nings room as hatred attacked the bottom of her heart.
Shangguan Ning didnt see her Aunts expression. She just turned around and made hot tea for them.
Shangguan Ning was still happy to receive them even though they hade because Uncle had forced them to.
Li Yu forced out a smiling face and took the tea cup without drinking it. Instead, she passed the things in her hands and said. I have brought you some snacks. Try them, quite tasty!
Shangguan Ning nodded. Thank you, Aunt! Dont worry. I am moving out in two days. I will return the apartment to you. She had thought for a while and decided to tell her aunt about moving out soon.
Lin Yu waved her arms and said in a rtively sharp voice. I wouldnt dare to take this apartment. If you report to your Uncle again, he will divorce me ! Me and your cousin have our own ce to leave. This outskirts area doesnt suit us!
Bah, you little bitch. You shouldnt be able to live here either if we two cant!
Huang Xinyi wasnt as patient and cunning as Lin Yu. She had already gotten quite restless by this moment. She grabbed Lin Yus arms and said in annoyance, Mom, it is midnight! I want to go home! It smells so bad here and I feel dizzy!
She hated Shangguan Ning so much. She hadnt taken the revenge for removing her arm, and her mother still wanted her to put on a smiling face. It was killing her!
Lin Yu was aware of her daughters hatred. But they were not here to talk about the past with Shangguan Ning. They hade to put on a show.
However, they had reached their goal, and there was no need to stay on any further. She spoke to her daughter with fondness. Okay, okay, you are the boss. Lets go home, now!
They talked and left, leaving Shangguan Ning alone, without even saying goodbye.

Chapter 44: Carried Home by Him
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning knew that the mother and the daughter werent here with a true heart, so she wasnt too sad seeing them leaving in this way. It was already quite difficult for them to put on a smile without cursing her.
She put the snacks Lin Yu gave her into the fridge and was about to go into the bedroom when she suddenly discovered that Cousins newest version of LV handbag was left on the sofa.
She snatched up the exquisite handbag, grabbed the key to the home door and rushed out.
If she didnt return the handbag to Huang Xinyi tonight, she would definitely use her of stealing her bag the following day.
Shangguan Ning took the elevator downstairs to the first floor but failed to find them. Then she hurried to the parking lot on the floor below.
She let out a sigh of relief seeing the brand-new BMW still parked over there.
She handed the handbag into the car and sounded distant. Cousin,you forgot your handbag.
Seeing her daughter wearing a frozen expression and eyes burning with anger, Lin Yu jabbed her daughter with her elbow, indicating that she should at least pretend a little.
The daughter hadplied with her at home, so why could she not pretend for just one second now.
She forced a pretentious smile on the face and took the handbag for Huang Xinyis sake. Oh man, she is always so careless. I wonder when will she get rid of this problem? Thank you, Ning. It is cold outside, do you want toe and sit in the car?
Before Shangguan Ning could turn down the offer, Huang Xinyi screamed. No way! You are never allowed in my car! Id rather you die of the chill!
Lin Yu covered her daughters mouth and sounded incredibly friendly. Ning... well, your cousin is very childish. I apologize to you on her behalf. Please dont take it to your heart. Her arm still hurts, please forgive her as an elder cousin, okay...
She kept nagging endlessly, but Huang Xinyi remained silent. She didnt make any more noise.
Shangguan Ning became increasingly confused, and she was losing patience as well.
It was very cold in the parking lot. With only a pajama and an overcoat on her, she was already feeling cold.
It is gettingte, please go home, Aunt and Cousin. With arms crossed into each other, she said lightly.
She didnt walk away until their car drove away. But when she reached the door and grabbed the key, she suddenly realized that the door couldnt be opened!
She took a closer look and found that the lock waspletely new!
Someone just changed her lock when she was out a minute ago!
In just a moment, Shangguan Ning understood everything!
So Aunt hade with Cousin only for this matter.
No wonder Cousin left her handbag which she never would forget about, otherwise. No wonder she sensed that Aunt was trying to spend more time in the house. No wonder Cousin got so quiet in the end!
How could they be so ruthless?!
She had been them tolerating time and again, and what she had gained in the end was their crazy revenge.
She got so angry that her entire body shivered. The rage and the bitterness inside her heart engulfed her, making her tears trickle down sadly.
What Aunt wanted was, to earn back this apartment? Alright, she would never give it up now! She would take everything her Uncle gave to her in future. If they could be so cruel, she could be even more cruel!
But what about now?
She squatted down with hands over the knees, leaning against the freezing wall.
It was so cold that she almost froze. The wound on the back of her head was just getting better but when the cold wind attacked, it started to ache again.
What should she do? If she spent the entire night waiting outside, she would surely get sick.
It was her first day at new work the following day, and she mustnt bete or absent.
But her wallet, cellphone and car keys were all locked in the apartment!
She had nowhere to go. Was she going to freeze to death outside?
What was she going to do??
Jing Yichen spotted Shangguan Ning who was huddled in the corner of the corridor with hands over the knees, the moment he walked out of the elevator on the sixth floor.
His heart ached badly.
He strode towards the weak figure and wanted to scoop her into his arms so that she would never be hurt again.
It was dark and quiet in the corridor. The elevator rang and the sound-control light turned on automatically.
Shangguan Ning followed the light and looked at the end of the corridor.
In the gentle, warm light, a tall, strong figure was walking towards her. The sound-control light in the corridor turned on above him one after another with his approaching step, all the way into her heart.
She was just like a helpless and bullied Cindere in the darkness that met a handsome, tall prince who approached her step by step and brought her warmth and brightness.
What are you doing here? Shangguan Nings voice sounded so nasal that it was almost like a coquetry.
Without saying a word, Jing Yichen stripped his own coat and wrapped her up.
Thank you, I... ah...
Before Shangguan Ning could finish the words, she let out a surprised sound when she felt that her body was lifted off the ground.
Jing Yichen took her up in a horizontal way and walked towards the elevator without saying a word.
He was expressionless, but his body emitted a cold aura. He was colder than anytime she had ever met him.
Instinctively, she could sense that he was very angry, but she had no idea what he was angry about. So she obediently stayed huddled into his arms quietly.
His arms were very warm, offering an unprecedented sense of security. She could still feel his gentleness despite his cold expression.
A corner of her sealed heart started to melt quietly.
Seeing her obediently, quiet image in his arms, Jing Yichen got increasingly raged.
Why was she always so silly and obedient? Why did she care so much about others but so little about herself?
How he wished that she could be more selfish and love herself more!
If he had not sent anyone to follow her and taken care of her on the sly, if he hadnt received the report from Tiger, would she have stayed in the corner with a thinyer of pajamas for the entire night?
He was able to feel her frozen body even through the coat. Why didnt shee upstairs to him when she almost froze to death?
Didnt he tell her that she could turn to him when she had a problem??
Even if he wasnt at home, the servants at home would allow her in and take good care of her.
Was he so unworthy of her trust?
The rage in Jing Yichens heart increased, and his expression became increasingly cold.
He had nned to develop the rtionship with her step by step, because he wanted her, like every other girl, to experience a romantic rtionship with him and to get married when they were truly in love with each other.
But it seemed that his n needed to be changedpletely!
He didnt want her to be hurt by anyone any more! She was silly and soft-hearted. Only by staying by his side, would she avoid being hurt.
Seeing Jing Yichens expression getting colder and colder, Shangguan Ning swallowed down her question of how he knew that she couldnt enter her house. Instead, she left herself to him entirely and allowed herself to be carried all the way to the 27th floor, into his bedroom.
She thought that he was going to fling her casually into bed, but what he did was put her down into the bed softly, taking off her sandals with his long, strong hands, holding her little feet and stuffing them into the nket.
He looked cold, and distant, but his behaviour was very gentle. He was afraid to hurt her.
She was already too badly hurt, and he would never want to hurt her more.

Stay here and do not move. I will be back soon!
Jing Yichens cold order sounded bossy and firm.
Shangguan Ning nodded obediently as shey huddled in the nket, looking bewitching.
A couple of minutester, Jing Yichen came in with a bowl of hot ginger soup.
Shangguan Ning was about to get up when a strong arm scooped her up.
She had only a thinyer of pajamas on her, and his sleeves were rolled up for the boiling of the ginger soup. As a result, she could feel the warmth of his arm clearly.
She was not used to this kind of intimacy, but she kept her mouth shut under Jing Yichens sharp sight.
His look was even colder than the ice outside!
She took the ginger soup which he had boiled and sipped it.
The warm ginger soup heated up Shangguan Nings stomach and broughtfort to her instantly. Her body started to feel warm again.
Seeing her finishing the soup, Jing Yichen put the bowl to the table next to him, and lifted up her nket. He held her feet and started to massage them with a proper tempo under Shangguan Nings shocked look.
No, no, let me do that! Shangguan Ning hurriedly prevented him. Her eyes flushed when her feet were held.
Jing Yichen turned a deaf ear to her and continued massaging her feet.
Her feet were totally frozen after being exposed for too long. Even after being wrapped in a nket, they hadnt been thawed.
Jing Yichen held her exquisite and beautiful ankles tightly and refused to let her withdraw the feet.
Dont move! It will be fine soon!
Shangguan Ning was startled by his coldness and dared not move any longer, fearing his anger.
The warmth of hisrge hands upon her feet spread all over her body from the soles.
Jing Yichen had only wanted to warm her feet up, but as he was massaging the feet, he couldnt help but feel attracted.
Her feet were thin and tender, just like a very smooth mutton-fat jade. The five toes were round and lovely, and nails were pale pinl like ten beautiful, wless pearls.
He kept massaging her two beautiful feet back and forth in an increasingly gentle way.
Shangguan Ning withdrew her feet seeing him distracted.
Flushed, she mumbled in a low voice. It is okay now...
She would never have believed it if someone had told her that Jing Yichen would massage a womans feet before this moment.
Someone so noble and elegant, distant and cold would never serve others.
Yet today, the fact in front of her made her feel dreamily delusional.
Jing Yichen didnt force her any more. He turned around and came back with some medicine. You have caught a cold. Take some medicine before going to sleep. A bowl of ginger soup isnt enough.
Shangguan Ning took the medicine from his hand and swallowed down the pills with warm water.
Then, under his intent look, shey down into the nket quickly and covered herself up.
Jing Yichens sight moved away from her breasts and his Adams Apple twitched a bit.
The neckline of her sling pajamas was a bit low, showing the beautiful sight of her breasts in such a way that he had almost lost control.
He stopped looking at her and switched off the light quickly. Under the shocked and confused look of Shangguan Ning, he lifted the nket andy down under the same nket.
Mr.... Zhao! Shangguan Ning sat up in panic with hands tightly clenched to the nket. She was like a startled rabbit.
Could this man behave himself!
Yeah?
Jing Yichen echoed lightly with a slightly raised tone, sounding enchantingly sexy.
Isnt it ... improper that we sleep like this? Shangguan Ning was very anxious. She wanted to run out immediately but she realized that she had nowhere to go!
Jing Yichen nced at her and then scooped her into his arms as he said lightly, So you enjoy sleeping in this way?
Shangguan Ning, who had just bumped into a firm pair of arms without warning, got very pissed and shamed. You are taking advantage of me! I thought you were a nice man! Release me, I want out!
It doesnt matter whether I am a nice man or not. The point is, you are not going out tonight. Jing Yichen smiled, and held her more tightly in his arms without caring about her struggle.
Be nice. Just sleep on. I am tired, please let me sleep for a while. No fussing around, please.
He sounded a bit hoarse, showing seemingly endless tiredness and making peoples heart ache for his sake.
Shangguan Ning flushed hearing his strong heartbeat.
She wasnt used to being hugged by him, but it was unexpectedly a veryfortable thing. She looked up at him and found him even more gentle and handsome than usual, under the moonlight. His face was so exquisite just like a carefully built sculpture.
She could clearly hear her heart pumping faster and faster in this dark night.
If it was a dream, then just let her indulge herself in this wonderful dream for once!
She didnt struggle any longer, closed her eyes and fell asleep in Jing Yichens broad and warm arms.
Jing Yichen slowly opened his eyes after she fell asleep.
He touched her smooth hair and listened to her steady breathing sound as he looked at her pure and beautiful face. His heart was filledpletely.
He softly nted a kiss on her plump and smooth forehead, moved her into his arms so that she could sleep better.
What a silly girl! Believed him so easily.
He would need strong self-control against such an absolutely beautiful girl in arms.
He would not let her go when she recovered!
The following morning, Shangguan Ning woke up from sleep when her biological clock rang.
She opened her eyes and found that it was bright outside. But the man beside her was gone already.
She let out a sigh of relief.
The wound on her head still ached. Shangguan Ning felt her brain heavy, nose clogged and body feeble. Maybe it was because of the cold she had caught.
She lifted the nket and gathered herself up, ready for a wash. But she found it a bit improper as she looked down at her pajamas.
Jing Yichen had a scorning look at her necklinest night. She mustnt swagger out in this way.
She found a white, thin sweater from the wardrobe. It should be Jing Yichens judging from the size.
She hesitated for a while before putting it on.
Jing Yichensrge clothes on her helped to cover up her butt. In this way, only the hem of the pajamas was showed.
Satisfied, Shangguan Ning rolled up the sleeves and went for a wash in the bathroom.
But as soon as she entered the bathroom, she bumped into a strong chest.
She let out a low voice andined as the first offender. Why are you silent inside! And why is the door opened!
Did the bump hurt you? Jing Yichen said as he stretched out his hand to massage her reddened nose tip. He spoke in his usual cold voice, but in an indulging tone that was hardly noticeable.
Shangguan Nings entire face flushed with heat at the sight of his strong chest.
It... it is okay!
Seeing her well, Jing Yichen withdrew his hand and walked out of the bathroom as if nothing had happened.
But he said lightly when he reached the door. You look pretty in my clothes.
Shangguan Ning suddenly became even more embarrased. She red at his back.

Chapter 46: Induction at Jingsheng
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen finished their wash at two separate bathrooms and went for breakfast in the dining room.
The breakfast was a feast. Shangguan Ning forced herself to eat some food even though she didnt feel so well.
She needed energy to fight against the cold at workter.
It was just half past seven and Jing Yichen was already dressed in a ck suit and ready to go out. He needed to go back to Family Jings house before going to Jingsheng Enterprise with father Jing Zhongxiu for the meeting with all the big shareholders.
From this day on, Jingsheng Enterprise would be fully under his charge. It was something that he had been nning for ages, so he paid extra attention to it.
He snatched up a grey woolen overcoat, and was about to go out of the door when he thought for a second and withdrew his steps that had already crossed over the door threshold. He had noticed, at breakfast, that Shangguan Ning seemed to have caught a cold. It seemed thatst nights medicines didnt work for her.
She had stood outside in the freezing air for so long in such thin clothes. It would be weird if she hadnt caught a cold.
He went back to the bedroom in silent steps. That startled Shangguan Ning. Why are you still here? Didnt he go out just now?
Jing Yichen looked unhappy. Did she want him to leave so badly?
He stretched out his hand to feel her forehead in concern and ordered. You have got a fever. You are not allowed to go anywhere today. Just stay at home and rest! Order from the kitchen, whatever it is that you wish to eat. No more food delivery!
That doesnt work! It is my first day of work and I mustnt be absent! What if the boss gets a bad impression of me! Shangguan Ning got anxious. She felt that she was doing well. It was nothing but a cold. She shouldnt ignore going to work.
Although she addressed Jing Zhongxiu as Uncle Jing, yet it didnt mean that she could act as she pleased. Being an assistant to the President of Jingsheng Enterprise was a job everyone was dreaming of. She really cherished this opportunity which her Uncle had got for her.
Hang on, what did he just say? Food delivery? How did he know that she had been ordering for food delivery?
The buy-one-get-three -for- free thing yesterday... was your job? She was 30 % doubtful and 70% positive about it.
Jing Yichen nodded, and replied with a gentle yes.
That exined it all... if deliverypany sent gifts in this way, it would have probably closed down because of bankruptcy.
An unspeakable sense of warmth gushed into Shangguan Nings heart. He was able to notice even such a trivial matter. A sense of being taken care of by someone engulfed her.
She got slightly distracted but came back to reality quickly. Please help me find someone to unlock the door. I need to get changed.
Unlocking the door is not a problem. But you mustnt go to work today. Take some rest at home, and go back when you arepletely well. Jing Yichen was still worried. It didnt matter if she worked or not. He was able to support her anyway.
Alright, alright, I will stay at home, not work. Please, get someone to unlock the door for me! Shangguan Ning rolled her eyes and agreed instantly.
As long as he was able to help with the unlocking, any condition would be fine. She could sneak out to work after he left. He wouldnt know about it anyway.
She naively hatched a little n,all the while smirking at him. She assumed that she would definitely be able to convince Jing Yichen who apparently had a higher IQ and EQ than her.
Jing Yichens expression calmed down at her agreement. Then he made a call to Tiger to fix the unlocking affair. It was a piece of cake for Tiger.
However, he mustnt let Shangguan Ning know about it. Otherwise, she would assume that he had nned something evil carrying her all the way here.
Needless to say, he was indeed nning something evil.
In a little while he said to Shangguan Ning. Okay, the door is open, you can...
Hearing that the door is opened, Shangguan Ning sprinted out of the door without turning back.
Jing Yichen suddenly became cold seeing her sprinting out quickly.
This heartless little woman! Abandoning him directly after using him, without even saying a thank you!
He lifted his wrist and checked his watch. It was 7:40. Time to go.
Shangguan Ning immediately started to change her clothes,b her hair and get ready for work.
Shangguan Ning had totally ignored her physical problem because of the tension and panic on the first day of work. She didnt feel dizzy until she drove away from home for a distance.
It was forewarning of a cold. She hoped that it wouldnt escte so quickly, at least not today!
It was a quarter past eight when Shangguan Ning arrived at thepany with car. The work hours at Jingsheng Enterprise started at 8:30.
She was dressed in ck professional dress suit and a sapphire blue blouse. She was wearing a pair of ck six-inch high-heel, and a body-fitting id blouse, looking exactly like a white-cor at work.
Shangguan Ning put on the overcoat, grabbed the bag and entered the organisation.
In the lobby of the Mansion, two striking-looking guides were standing there. Smiles hovered over their faces when they got to know that Shangguan Ning was the new assistant to the President.
Someone had already told them that the new assistant would start work today and that they needed to treat her well.
But what they didnt expect was that this new assistant would be so beautiful. Even with the most ordinary ck professional suit on her, she was still able to put all the so-called beautiful girls at the Enterprise in shadow with the fresh and pure vibe that she gave out.
She was wearing light makeup. Her skin was white and tender, facial features exquisitely beautiful, especially the pair of eyes which were like a pure springs and left a deep impression on everyones heart.
The two guides confirmed her identity politely and led her to the elevator. Presidents office is located on the 76th floor. You need the card to get upstairs. I will swipe it for you.
Shangguan Ning followed the guides to the elevator. The guides card touched the sensor and the elevator showed the button of 76th floor automatically.
Shangguan Ning thanked her politely, ignored the vaguely exploring look of the guide and went up to the 76th floor by herself.
The entire 76th floor was simply-embellished and looked quite ssical. A thin, middle aged man in suit came towards her.
Ms. Shangguan?
Shangguan Ning nodded and said smilingly. Hi, I am Shangguan Ning. And you are?
Hi, I am Lu Qing, the senior assistant to the President. I am here to hand over some important work affairs to you, and I will be your guide for two months until you are ready for the assistant work for the President. You can ask me any questions anytime. Lu Qing looked serious and reserved.
He talked in an orderly manner, looking sinct and capable. He was apparently a very experienced employee.
Shangguan Ning thanked him gratefully. It is my honor to learn from you, Senior. I will work hard and I will turn to you when I have questions.
Lu Qing nodded lightly. He presented the Presidents Office to her and brought her to the assistants office next to the Presidents office.
The President is holding a meeting on the top floor. It may be awhile before hees down. Here is his schedule for the next two weeks. Please note the contents and report todays schedule to him after he finishes the meeting.
Chapter 47 - I Am Jing Yichen, the New President of Jingsheng
Chapter 47: I Am Jing Yichen, the New President of Jingsheng
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Lu Qing presented some items in detail and made a general introduction about Shangguan Nings daily work.
Since you are new here, what you need to do every day is to perform some fundamental work. Also, I noticed on your CV that you have a goodmand of English, French and German, so you can also serve as a trantor to the President. Try starting from here. You can apany him to meet some clients this week, and be attentive so as to take meeting notes. You dont have to go on business trips in case that happens. Someone else will be arranged for that work.
Shangguan Ning wasnt feeling well now. She understood that she must have got a fever. It seemed that she hadnt thought of thisplication, which broke in full fury today.
However, she ignored her physical reaction and listened to Lu Qings presentation attentively.
Lu Qing, in fact, had noticed that she was getting a bit pale and that she was apparently sick. Yet seeing that she wasnt acting delicate but listening to him carefully, Lu Qing was quite pleased.
He was Jing Zhongxius senior assistant. He had been on the position for more than ten years. Yet as the business affairs increased, he had also hired some other assistants who all graduated from prestigious universities. However, each of them had high expectations and chose to leave after a short while because they couldnt tolerate spending time handling some trivial affairs.
He knew that Shangguan Ning was recruited because of Jing Zhongxius personal connection. Often, such girls tended to be spoiled andzy, arrogant and demeaning.
Luckily, Shangguan Ning seemed excellent both in qualities and ethnicities, at least she was not impetuous. That was a rare advantage among young people.
From this day on, Shangguan Ning became his student. He expected to cultivate a capable assistant for the new president.
He thought that Shangguan Ning knew about the recement of the old president, so he didnt talk too much about it. In his heart, he would always regard Jing Zhongxiu as the president of Jingsheng Enterprise.
He didnt teach her much on the first day. After the general introduction, he gave her an internal document of the senior directors at Jingsheng.
The document contains the organizational structure of the enterprise. Memorize all of them, their names, positions, appearance, interests, professions, drawbacks, all of those should be remembered so that you can deal with them when you meet them next time.
Shangguan Ning solemnly took over the thick brochure and said lightly. Dont worry, I wont leak the information.
A smile finally hovered over Lu Qings face. It seemed that this girl was extremely smart. He nodded and turned around to handle his own business.
Shangguan Ning sat down at her desk given by the Enterprise and checked the Presidents schedule of the day.
8:20. Shareholder meeting at Jingsheng Enterprise.
10:30. Purchase conference at Star Media.
12:00. Lunch with Ms. Ji Lili...
The shareholder meeting was on, and Star Media was an entertainmentpany full of celebrities, which was quite far away from Shangguan Ning.
As for Ji Lili... she knew her, and she knew her well.
Ji Lili was the daughter of Ji Minyu, the Deputy of A City, one of the sessors of Family Ji.
Ji Minyu was a symbolic figure in A City. She was bossy and came from a powerful family. Her husband had divorced her because he couldnt stand her bossiness.
Ji Lili had been fatherless since childhood. Jing Minyu, who felt guilty towards her as a mother, spoiled her to an exaggerated degree.
Ji Lili had numerous weird interests, the biggest of which was to ask good-looking people to eat meals with her.
Because of Shangguan Zheng, both Shangguan Ning and Shangguan Rouxue had once had meals with thisdy. However, after one meal, she became Shangguan Nings enemy and Shangguan Rouxues best friend.
Shangguan Ning had never expected that the trillionaire of Jingsheng Enterprise needed to have lunch with Ji Lili!
Jing Zhongxiu was indeed handsome and charismatic. But he, after all, was a middle aged man, old enough to be Ji Lilis father!
Ji Lili really had a... weird taste!
Maybe it had something to do with hercking a father since childhood. Or maybe, it was more than a simple lunch, a cutting point of a potential coboration between Family Jing and Family Ji.
Shangguan Ning shook her head, not wanting to think any further. She quickly memorized the Presidents schedule so that she would be able to answer the Presidents questionster on.
Her head already got really dizzy after she memorized the schedule.
With the radiator on, in the office, the room ought to be quite warm. Yet what she felt was increasing coldness.
Shangguan Ning realised that her fever was getting worse.
She got up, poured a cup of warm water for herself from the water machine, turned around and bumped into someone.
I am sorry, I am sorry. I wasnt paying attention. Did you get hurt? She apologized constantly, looked up and got started by the person in front of her.
Why are you here?
Shangguan Ning got astonished and confused. But Jing Yichen ignored all questions and said expressionlessly, Didnt I ask you to stay at home?! Did you forget the promise?
It took a moment before Shangguan Ning became normal. She felt that the way he was talking was quite weird, but she couldnt describe what was weird about it.
I mustnt be absent on my first day of work! I am fine, but you...
Before she could finish her words, arge hand was already ced upon her forehead, making her oblivious of everything she was about to say.
Jing Yichen stared at her coldly. Her forehead was burning and she still said that she was fine!
And she had learnt to lie! She had said that she would stay at home but instead she came to the office. He had been smart enough to catch other peoples lies, but got tricked by her!
Jing Yichen was both concerned and annoyed.
She ignored everything he had said, and tormented her body. What was he feeling concerned she herself didnt care about herself?
The fury inside him kept rising, and his knuckles made a cracking noise. Very well, Shangguan Ning, I havent been this angry in a very long time!
Shangguan Ning had never heard him calling her by her full name. But now, it stung.
She knew that he was really angry. But what was he angry for!
It wouldnt be fine if she didnte to work today. It was a rare opportunity and she mustnt make her uncle lose face.
Shangguan Ning didnt disy a good attitude towards him either, after seeing him behave so badly.
Move out, it is not a ce where youe and go as you wish. Dont disturb me, I am working!
Ha, now she was daring to scold him and ask him to move out.
Jing Yichen was so angry that he almostughed!
Alright, she was working!
He threw a cold look at this little woman who refused to even bend down her neck, and walked out without saying a word.
A minuteter, the telephone on Shangguan Nings table rang. Assistant Shangguan, the President is asking for you in his office.
Shangguan Ning responded affirmatively upon hearing Lu Qings voice.
Do remember to remind him of the next step of todays schedule. Buying Star Media is an urgent matter, otherwise the price would rise tremendously again!
Shangguan Ning nodded attentively. Dont worry, I will remind him.
After hanging up the phone, she adjusted her clothes and went to the office door on which President was written. She knocked lightly twice.
A soft voice came from inside. Come in!
Shangguan Ning pushed the door opened and said smilingly, President, you asked for me...
Before she was able to finish herst word, she gasped in astonishment. The smile froze on her face.
Hello, Assistant Shangguan! I am Jing Yichen, the new President of Jingsheng Enterprise. From today on, you will be my assistant. Now, please state your work!
Chapter 48 - The Bossy President Forced a Marriage Certificate
Chapter 48: The Bossy President Forced a Marriage Certificate
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
In the Presidents bright and spacious office, he was sitting in a hand-made leather chair of brown color, dressed in a white blouse and ck suit and a blue tie. His facial features were perfect and, charisma noble and elegant. He had no expression on the face, voice cold as ice, just like on the meeting she had with him for the first time.
Shangguan Ning felt that the blood of her entire body had frozen, limbs stiff.
A voice was speaking to her C he was the President! You needed to stay calm and rational! She needed to report to him the schedule which she had just memorized, without missing a word.
However, her brain was totally nk. All the colors and voices were disappearing, leaving nothing other than an expressionless and ruthless face.
It took her awhile before she became conscious again.
She bent down her head with little strength and spotted the crystal clear name board on the desk in front of Jing Yichen C Three words were engraved there: President Jing Yichen.
President, Jing Yichen...
So ironical...
The wound on the back of her head hurt and the fever had sucked out all of her energy and made her dizzy. The feeble feeling spread all across her entire body.
Was anyone going to tell her what was going on?
The willpower she had been trying to hold onto, copsed. She retreated two steps and fell upon the carpet.
Jing Yichen didnt expect that her face would turn so pale suddenly and the body would wobble. Feeling guilty, he stood up and came to her side and took her into his arms the moment she dropped to the ground.
Teeth clenched her lips, Shangguan Ning wiped away his hands and said coldly. Dont touch me!
She wanted to disappear from his sight at this very moment!
Only in this way was she able to make herself feel less ridiculous, less pathetic.
She didnt want to appear in front of him again!
She was indeed silly enough to have believed him so much without even knowing his name.
How much betrayal did you, Shangguan Ning need to go through so as to understand such matters? Had Xie Zhuojun not been enough?
She had even shared with him the joy of finding an employment and told him that she was keeping herself updated about Jingsheng Enterprise. But how did he manage to stay so calm at that time and not mention a word at all?
She had naively thought that he did have a friend here who could help her.
That so-called friend turned out to be himself. The President of Jingsheng!
She had just scolded him and asked him to move out. He wasnt supposed to move out. It was she, Shangguan Ning, who was supposed to move out!
Why was he teasing her like this? Was it a lot of fun to keep her in the dark? She had already been living a difficult life. Why couldnt people just let go of her?
She felt that pain was spreading through her entire body. But she didnt allow herself to pass out in front of him. She had already lost enough face here.
Shangguan Ning raised herself up with all the strength.
She pushed him away when Jing Yichen tried to help her up .
I said, dont touch me! Her voice was sharp and hoarse, startling Jing Yichen.
Her eyes looked unusually distant, making Jing Yichen panic.
He wanted to grab her hands but she instantly flung him off.
You are not looking well now. I will send you to the hospital. Jing Yichen whispered, fearing that he may irritate her further in this rebellious mood.
You are not Mr. Zhao... hehe...
Why didnt you tell me your family name wasnt Zhao, and why didnt you tell me you were called Jing Yichen! Shangguan Nings heart was roaring furiously, but her face was frozen, refusing to show any expression.
She walked outwards slowly, but she already reached the maximum limitation of her physical condition. She copsed feebly again onto the ground.
Jing Yichens heart ached even more. He came to her side and took her up horizontally in his arms despite her protest.
Damn! How did ite to this?
Shangguan Ning pushed him and hit him with all her strength, totally oblivious of their status as an assistant and a President. Let go of me! Dont touch me! I can walk by myself!
She had thought that she had used much strength, but as a matter of fact, her feeble fists upon Jing Yichen were barely making an impact.
Dont move!
Let go of me! I am resigning!
I disapprove!
I dont want to be your assistant!
I disapprove!
I hate you!
I disapprove!
I...
No more talks! I disapprove of all your requests! From today on, you are mine. You arent allowed to go anywhere without my approval!
With the struggling Shangguan Ning in his arms, Jing Yichen took the President-special elevator straight down to the underground parking lot from the 76th floor and stuffed her into the Aston Martin with a license number of 12345. Then, he drove away the car, ignoring her angry looks.
He dialled as he drove. Tiger, get Shangguan Nings household registration book for me!
What do you want my household registration book for? Let me get off!
Jing Yichen ignored her, scooped out his own ID card and flung it at her. Read carefully. Your husband is called Jing Yichen, dont forget about my name when we are getting our marriage certificate!
What did you say?!
I said... marriagecertificate!
I disapprove!
Objection denied.
Shangguan Ning was trying hard to suppress her anger and despair in the bottom of her heart. She leaned against the seat in silence. A whileter, she spoke with a hoarse voice. I have a fever, take me to the hospital first.
Without even looking at her, Jing Yichen said coldly, Dont worry, I wont let you go without getting the marriage certificate first.
She was trying to trick him again, but he wouldnt get tricked twice.
Shangguan Ning threw Jing Yichens ID card back at him disdainfully . Her teeth were tightly clenched and her head refused to bend down.
The fever came in full fury. She was almost out of her mind. But she said what she wanted to say word by word. I am not marrying you.
No worries. Registration first. Wedding and babies cer.
Shangguan Ning got so angry that she froze C who had ever said anything about babies?
Jing Yichen stretched out his hand and felt her forehead. He drove faster, without saying any more words to irritate her.
Shangguan Ning had already no energy left in her, to prevent him from doing anything any more. She was at his mercy, who tested her temperature in whichever way he wanted.
They arrived at Civil Affairs Office very quickly. Tiger already had their household registration books waiting at the door.
Jing Yichen got off the car, and walked to the other side to take Shangguan Ning down. He behaved gently but bossily as if she were his biggest treasure.
But Shangguan Ning didnt feel that way at all.
She didnt know about his real identity until today and the next second, she was forced to get a marriage certificate at the Civil Affairs Office with him. He was a robber! A demon!
Her life was already a failure, a mess. Couldnt she just live a simple life instead...?
Her tears trickled down at the sight of Jing Yichens well-trimmed, handsome face.
Why did the heart ache so much...?
Then, she felt a gentle touch at her lips.
Shangguan Ning opened the eyes and saw a magnificent handsome face in front of her.
Jing Yichen withdrew his kiss after a second. His voice sounded gentler now than ever. Be happy. We are getting the marriage certificate today. It is my fault to have messed everything up. But I will not let go of you no matter how much you detest me. A kiss means love, you have no other choice.
He wiped away her tears lightly, but his heart ached badly.
What he had wanted was to give to her was happiness and joy, but how did the entire thing be like this?
What he wanted was not her grievous tears, but a cheerful smile.
Chapter 49 - The Married Boss President Was at Unease
Chapter 49: The Married Boss President Was at Unease
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
The procedure of marriage certificate registration was quite simple. Two red certificates were delivered to the newly-wedded couple after a short while.
Everyone could tell that the bride wasnt as willing whilst the groom was very enthusiastic. They all assumed that the bride was dying and the groom had insisted on marrying her.
What an excellent man! He was good-looking, charismatic and devoted. Within one second, he became a code word for a good man.
Ignoring the weird gaze of others in the lobby, Jing Yichen scooped up his newly-wedded wife Shangguan Ning, strode out and went to the luxurious sports car that was uniquely singr in A City.
Tiger, drive to Family Mus Hospital, as fast as you can!
A momentter, an unrestrained car lunged into the traffic of A City.
Ten minutester, the gate of Family Mus Hospital was opened. Jing Yichen ran inside with Shangguan Ning in his arms. She had already fallen unconsciousness.
In the emergency room, Mu Qing proficiently performed all kinds of examinations whilst his assistant started to sort medicine for the patient in the sickbed, ording to his orders.
Jing Yichen had broken the family restriction regtion at the hospital and stood straight at the end of bed, watching in silence.
Call the old man if you are incapable!
Mu Qings hand, which was holding the syringe for Shangguan Ning, shivered and almost injected in the wrong spot!
Luckily for him, the old man used to make indiscreet remarks or disdainful criticisms beside him when he was performing operations, so he was used to this kind of stimtion. In the end, that he was able to make an urate, stable cut.
It was not until when Mu Qing finished taking care of Shangguan Nings wound, cooling her temperature down and seeing her heartbeat return to normal standard speed, did he remove his rubber gloves and face mask. He red at Jing Yichen whilst talking constantly.
You should appreciate what is good! I almost never save anyone in person!
You think the old man is better than me? I surpassed him ages ago as his pupil!
I...
Why is she still not awake? Jing Yichen stared at his newly-wedded wife transfixedly, ignoring the angry looking Mu Qing.
Mu Qing stared at him as if he were an idiot. He felt that Master Jings IQ was getting worse and worse in recent times.
She has a fever of almost 40 degree! I am already very skilled to have cooled her down and keep her safe! Falling asleep is a function of self-immune system. It is good for her!
Mu Qing got so irritated that he was hopping mad! He would kill anyone who doubted his professional medical skills!
But what Jing Yichen did was emit a soft oh as if he had not noticed anything else.
He was just asking around casually. He didnt expect her to wake up right now. He was just worried.
Also, do you understand that doctors hate to hear patients family nagging around during the treatment process? Stay away from my emergency room next time, or I would stab you with my operation knife! If I had not been tormented by the manic old man before, I would have put the syringe in the wrong spot! And then you would have killed me if I made more than one hole in her!
Mu Qing didnt know that Jing Yichen had got a marriage certificate with Shangguan Ning. He simply addressed Jing Yichen as patients family subconsciously. In his opinion, Jing Yichen would marry this woman sooner orter C he had never been so devoted to anyone before.
Oh man, I am not living an easy life! I am tormented by you all the time. Same with this girl! She has been to this hospital so many times after she got to know you! I have even be her special doctor!
Mu Qing kept nagging andining as he rolled his eyes back and forth.
Your woman is here so often. If we dont have the newest equipment and medicine, how would she be able to recover quickly? So, please invest our hospital! If your womanes back again next time, I will certainly let the old man cure her in person! How does that sound?
Finally, Jing Yichen looked at him. He stayed silent for a while as if seriously considering his words.
Mu Qing was feeling quite anxious in heart. If Jing Yichen still rejected the proposal, then the old man would force him to marry the ugly woman of Family Yang!
He had reminded Jing Yichen numerous times, but he had never truly approved of it.
Since investing Family Mus Hospital would cost at least 1 billion yuan, or even more whilst the revenue was quite little C tens of millions a year would be a lucky number.
He thought of this idea suddenly seeing Jing Yichens concern about this slim and weak woman in the sickbed, hoping that she would be able to grip Jing Yichens heart somehow.
Jing Yichen was aware of Mu Qings trick. Sessors of big families seemed exceedingly powerful on the surface, but as a matter of fact, they were loaded with unimaginable stress.
If he didnt invest Family Mus Hospital, Mu Qing would surely be forced to marry Family Yangs daughter after a year.
Jingsheng Enterprise had put an investment on Family Mus hospital twenty years ago, and now the Enterprise upied 20 % of the shares.
The two families had been in a great friendship, and now the rtionship was getting better. Jing Yichen nned to invest into Family Mus Hospital after bing the President.
But he didnt n to start this project so soon. After all, he had just taken over the Enterprise, and 1 billion wasnt a small number. If no abundant profits were acquired within a short period, the capital chain of Jingsheng Enterprise might experience a potential risk of breaking.
Even the shareholders of the Enterprise would not approve of the risk the young President intended to take.
Jing Yichen threw a nce at the woman in bed. She was pale, and her eyshes were fluttering slightly. She no longer looked lively and happy like her usual self. His heart ached and he felt uneasy.
He had thought that as long as they got the marriage certificate, she would not be able to run away.
But it seemed that it would be very easy for her to leave him if she wanted to.
Family Mus Hospital contained the worldly top-notch doctors and waspletely worth his trust. But the equipment was getting old and the development research of pills and medicine was stagnant because of the capital issue. It would have been beaten by other hospitals in A City, had it not been for the experienced and skilled doctors, who were still able to attract patients.
Mu Qings grandpa had always been hailed as A Magical Doctor, but he almost never came to the hospital any more. He was even able to bring people back to life ording to his own rich experience without medicine or equipment.
This was a man who shouldnt be missed.
He was also hoping that the old man would agree to help adjust Shangguan Nings physical condition in future.
Although Mu Qing had been bragging about himself, yet he was still too young to beparable with his grandpa.
Jing Yichen held Shangguan Nings jade-like tender hand gently and said softly, When she wakes up, Jingsheng Enterprise will start to perform a formal pre phase evaluation of the hospital.
That meant the investment was on the way!
Mu Qing was extremely delighted.
This was wonderful. He wouldnt need to marry the ugly woman of Family Yang any more.
Shangguan Ning was definitely his lucky star and Family Mus Hospitals lucky star as well. He was definitely going to make old man make a prescription for her so that she was able to live to one hundred years. Jing Yichen would help Family Mus Hospital on every single of her living day.

Shangguan Ning was in deep sleep for an entire day and night, and when she woke up the following morning, she found herself lying in the hospital once again.
She wasnt surprised. She was already used to it.
She knew that it must have been Jing Yichen who carried her here again.
She had an indescribable feeling when she thought of this man.
From this day on, they were legally married after they hadpleted the marriage certificate registration!
That was ridiculous!
How could getting married be such a casual thing!
He had forced her to take the picture yesterday and get the marriage certificate. Although she wasnt fully conscious yesterday because of the fever, yet the entire matter had been so shocking that she was able to remember each single detail clearly, especially that light kiss of his.
That was her... first kiss...
And an unreal feeling was lingering till today.
So she... got married in this way?
Zhao Anan was right C she was really getting married before the Chinese New Year, and she really got married at the age of 26, even though it was done with force.
She never expected that a seemingly calm, stable and mature Jing Yichen was actually such an impulsive and ridiculous man.
Shangguan Ning was in a trance sitting on the bed when someone knocked at the door.
A handsome man dressed in a white coat walked in before she asked him to.
Shangguan Ning smiled courteously at the sight of Mu Qing. Doctor Mu!
Mu Qing smiled brightly seeing that she was awake.
He was already a handsome man, but that dandiacal sense of his ruined his charisma. At this moment, he was wearing a white coat and that made him look rtively mature.
With a bright smile, and in a friendly tone, he asked, How are you feeling today, Sister Ning? Any pain? What about your head? You want to eat anything? Water maybe? Do you want apples or oranges?
Shangguan Ning was speechless because of him being overly hospitable.
Sister Ning?
He had addressed her in this way... so he knew about her marriage certificate with Jing Yichen?
No wonder he was so hospitable today!
In fact, Mu Qing had no clue about her marrying Jing Yichen. He was just trying to get close to Shangguan Ning for the sake of Jing Yichens investment in Family Mus Hospital. It sounded even more like family to call her Sister Ning! Pleasing her was now more important than pleasing Jing Yichen!
He happened to hit a mark by fluke!
Shangguan Ning thanked Mu Qing for his concern. She asked for a cup of water and asked him softly, Where is Zhao... Jing Yichen?
Mu Qing got startled by the words Jing Yichen. My god! Few people dared to call Master Jing by his full name!
Shangguan Ning was indeed beautiful. She looked very pretty even though she was sick right now. She had a great personality and was excellently cultivated. But there were more than hundreds, even thousands of such women around this extraordinary Jing Yichen. So why did he pick her above all?
Besides, it seemed like she wasnt so much into him anyway!
Interesting! Ady-killer Jing Yichen also had to face a time when he was not weed.
Although Mu Qing wanted to see Jing Yichen bending down in defeat, yet for the sake of his lifetime happiness, he needed to make polite conversation, speaking highly about that cold-faced man. In case the Beauty left Jing Yichen, Mu Qing he would be forced to let go of the 1 billion yuan too.
Master Jing guarded you for the entire night, and he returned to the Enterprise in the morning, without breakfast. He skipped all of his meetings on his first day of work except the shareholders conference. The Old President was enraged, when he got to know of this and threatened to rece him with somebody else!
Did you hear that? Your man almost lost hundreds of billions because of you. Were you moved?
As a matter of fact, the situation had not been as dire as what Mu Qing was describing it to be. Jing Zhongxiu wasnt angry because of his son. He had decided not to restrain his son after he handed over the power unless crucial crises happened at the Enterprise. His son would never be able to administrate the Enterprise well and the staff would never be convinced by Jing Yichens ability if Jing Zhongxiu appeared at every trivial matter.
But something did happen, otherwise Jing Yichen would not have abandoned Shangguan Ning and hurried off.
Shangguan Ning had memorized Jing Yichens schedule very clearly, and Lu Qing had told her about the importance of the meetings which shouldnt be dyed. Therefore, she believed Mu Qings words very easily.
Although she was very angry that Jing Yichen had lied to her, refused to tell her, his real identity, purposefully humiliated her yesterday and asked her to report the work in a cold tone, yet she never wanted Jing Yichen to be harmed. Even though she was forced to get the marriage certificate, she never wanted him to be harmed.
He had never hurt her in any way after he got to know her. In fact, despite his coldness, he cared about her in silence. He was always the first one that appeared in front of her when she was in despair.
Shangguan Ning was the kind of woman who med herself first when a problem popped up.
She had been silly not to see through his identity. If she could have asked a little bit more, without sticking to her strong self-esteem, then she would have known who he was, earlier.
What she was not aware of was that she didnt reject her marriage with Jing Yichen in her heart.
Her rage yesterday had brought him enormous trouble.
If Jing Yichen was scolded by Jing Zhouxiu, attacked by the shareholders at the Enterpriseso much that he lost the position of President because of her, she would feel guilty for her entire life.
Seeing Shangguan Nings expression changing constantly, until all he could see were regret and guilt , Mu Qing couldnt help but get ttered. Ha, I am much better than Mr. Jing at coaxing girls! Jing Yichen is simply an ice-berg who knows nothing but to put on a cold face. He never says a word of what he does or bears.
What a dumb-headed man! How would the girl know what you did for her without you saying anything? Tell her your feelings! The girl wasnt a deity who could see through your mind.
He decided to work harder and helped that idiot even more.
He adjusted his expression and made himself look profound and sorrowful. Chen has been a smart kid since he was little. He has never been beaten down by any problem. He is an honest and rich man, so he always gets hustled by others. But he still trusts others even though he is hustled. What a fool!
Jingsheng Enterprise looks quite glorious on the surface, but the structure inside is reallyplicated and threatening. There are so many people waiting for him to lose when he takes over the Enterprise, not long after he returned from foreign shores.
Ms. Shangguan, do you know what has he given up for you? His future! He was here keeping youpany on the first day of his work. If the shareholders knew about this irrational president, Chen would be forced to step down today!
Mu Qing didnt think that he was frightening Shangguan Ning. There were many people keeping an eye out for Jingsheng Enterprise, and it wasnt an exaggeration to say that the President did need to be very careful.
The point was, however, Jing Yichen never fiddled with routine. Besides, Jing Yichen had 40% of the entire shares of the Enterprise, and he was the biggest shareholder. If anyone dared to put forward any doubt, that person would have nothing left but a pair of underpants, on the following day.
But of course, Mu Qing would never reveal the ruthless and hustling side of Jing Yichen.
What he needed to do was to present the pitiful, kind and innocent side of Jing Yichen, who was bullied all the time, in front of Shangguan Ning.
Chapter 51 - It Is Okay, I Can Carry You
Chapter 51: It Is Okay, I Can Carry You

Women tended to be soft-hearted, and they would always be willing to protect weak animals voluntarily.
Sure enough, after Mu Qing finished his words, Shangguan Ning was startled.
Really? Was that so? Did Jing Yichen... care so much about her?
Then did she overreact?
She had no idea about Family Jing, but it could be seen clearly that a property of more than hundreds of billion yuan was something everyone would like to have a handful of.
In her family, a single Shangguan Rouxue had messed her up. She wondered how Jing Yichen had endured it all these days.
Shangguan Ning felt bewilderment, confusion and guilt.
Mu Qing retreated at the proper moment. He left the ward quietly and went to fix breakfast for the future Mrs. Jing.
Also, he was going to tell his grandpa that he neednt marry the woman from Family Yang!
Mu Qing also wanted to marry a woman he loved, like this bastard Jing Yichen and then guard her for the rest of his life.
Shangguan Ning was in the hospital for the entire day. Although Mu Qing seemed quite busy, he was still taking proper care of her.
She was well aware that he did it because of Jing Yichen.
Her fever had gone down, so Mu Qing didnt give her the infusion any more. He said that too much infusion would break her original immune system, and that her original physical condition had been good enough to recover on its own. It was better for her body this way.
Shangguan Ning said that she wanted to leave the hospital in the evening, but Mu Qing disapproved.
He put on the most pitiful expression and looked as if being on the verge of tears. If Chen finds you gone when he returns, he will definitely tear down my hospital! Please have pity on my staff who have been taking care of you for the entire day. Please wait until he returns!
Shangguan Ning had nned on leaving before Jing Yichen returned. But Mu Qings words made her feel guilty.
Mu Qing let out a sigh of relief in his heart, seeing that she had chosen to stay.
He had almost been hounded to death! It wasnt an easy job for him. He,who was an adult man, to conceal his feelings and to act pitifully!
In the evening, Jing Yichen showed up at the door of the ward.
He walked into the ward slowly, stretched out his hand to feel her forehead and then put it down.
He looked fatigued with the journey, and the suit and the shirt on him were still the same as yesterday. It was so incredible that such a thing would happen to him.
He did not have the habit of wearing the same unwashed clothes on the second day.
His eyes, which should have been bright and sharp, were red. He looked pale and seemed extremely tired.
Even an ironman would copse of fatigue, without any rest, for two days in a row.
Shangguan Nings heart ached.
Her internal displeasure was gone at the sight of him, and she was feeling more and more guilty.
Jing Yichen took off his overcoat and draped it over her. Then he picked her up as Shangguan Ning made a low sound.
Lets go home, Ning. Okay?
His voice was nice as usual, except that a touch of hoarseness was blended in it. The hole at the bottom of Shangguan Nings heart kept expanding.
Seeing his profound eyes, Shangguan Ning relished him calling her Ning and nodded lightly. Okay.
The shadow in Jing Yichens heart was gone by this single word which she uttered. He was relieved.
He had no idea why Shangguan Ning was no longer angry with him and became so obedient just after one days separation.
He had been worried on the way here that she would not want to talk with him, or that she would ask him not to touch her and tell him that she hated him!
Yet none of these things happened. She was leaning in his arms quietly and gently, just like a tamed cat.
He held her tightly in his arms and strode out of the ward.
Family Mus Hospital was a private hospital, which was professionally administered. The nurses were fascinated by Jing Yichen yet they wouldnt scream in obsession like other people. Every time he came to the hospital, the nurses would gather around him. But because of the regtions of the hospital and his coldness, no one dared to get too close to him.At this moment, all the nurses were staring at Shangguan Ning in his arms with jealousy. Each one of them wished fervently that it was she who was in his arms.
This mountain-cold man who was almost never approachable, was now often seen carrying that woman into and out of the hospital in the past few days.
This woman was whom the nurses were crazily jealous of. Each one of them craned her neck to nce at her appearance. However, no one other than the nurse-in-chief was allowed in the advanced ward where Shangguan Ning had stayed.
With Shangguan Ning in his arms, Jing Yichen walked along the corridors of the hospital.
She felt a bit shy under the stares of those people. Besides, Jing Yichen was already very tired, and she didnt want to burden him further.
Let me down, I can walk by myself.
Jing Yichen looked at the woman in his arms, and a tiny smile hovered over his face. Concerned about me now? It is okay, I can carry you. If one day when I get too old to carry you, I will take your hands and walk with you.
Although it was not a love pledge of eternal loyalty, yet they were the most touching love words Shangguan Ning had ever heard.
Her quiet heart throbbed like never before and she couldnt help but feel close to him involuntarily.
Jing Yichen carried her into the car. Tiger started the engine and drove on, seeing them two well seated.
The car advanced at a fast speed. The scenes outside flew backwards very quickly, just like Shangguan Nings unendurable past that was disappearing little by little.
Tomorrow would be better, wouldnt it?
She wasnt used to being intimate with him earlier, but for some reason, she wasnt rejecting his arms today. Instead, she was even feeling slightly happy.
His shoulders were very broad, making her feel unusually assured. The panic from the day before was gone as well.
Or maybe, she finally understood that she was just too scared to be lied to once again. She was worried that the person whom she had leaned on this time, would break her heart, as well.
When they reached Landscape Compound, Shangguan Ning refused to be carried by Jing Yichen any more. Jing Yichen decided to let her walk on her own.
He neednt be worried. There was no hurry. He had a lifetime to carry her around.
After Tiger drove them there, he got in another inconspicuous car of Jing Yichens and disappeared in the darkness. Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were left alone in the elevator.
Shangguan Ning stretched out her hand to press the button of the sixth floor, but Jing Yichen pulled her into his arms.
Why are you pressing the sixth floor button? He sounded cold and dangerous. It looked as if he would gulf her down if the answer wasnt satisfying.
Seeing his glittering eyes, Shangguan Ning almost lost her confidence. I am going home.
My wife, your home is on the 27th floor. Dont make a mistake in pressing the button!
I need to get my clothes from the sixth floor...
No need. Your husband has enough money. Just tell me what you want to wear and I will get them delivered to you tomorrow morning. As for your old clothes, just throw them all away.
Shangguan Ning waspletely speechless.
This man was too bossy to leave an escape path for anyone!
They reached the 27th floor quickly. Jing Yichen held on to her tightly and dragged her to the dining room as if fearing that the woman would run away at any time.
The dining table was already full of dishes that emitted appetizing fragrance, stimting a persons appetite.
Jing Yichen dragged Shangguan Ning to the washing basin at the side of the dining room and washed her hands in a careful, gentle way.
Chapter 52 - Where Did the Drool Come from, on My Chest?
Chapter 52: Where Did the Drool Come from, on My Chest?
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Dont move. You are sick. I should take care of you. Jing Yichens voice was light, but his expression was serious.
Shangguan Ning felt helpless. It was true that she was sick, but she hadnt lost the ability of taking care of herself nor did she need the help of others to wash her hands.
Her fingers were thin and jade-like white and really soft. He couldnt help but massage them gently and wash them very carefully.
Shangguan Ning had never been taken care of, by anyone in this way. She felt the true gentle care of this man in her heart.
It used to be she who took care of others. No one had ever taken her well being into consideration.
When she was fond of Xie Zhuojun, she had put him first and took him into ount on every asion. What he had repaid her with, was nothing more than a thank-you and that too, without affection.
No one had been like Jing Yichen, who cooked for her, boiled ginger soup for her, cared about her physical condition and sent her tasty food under the guise of food delivery. He was bossy enough to not allow her to go anywhere, and make her stay at home to recover...
He even warmed her feet and washed her hands...
He had, unexpectedly and without her knowledge, done so much for her!
Shangguan Nings eyes welled up. She tried to control herself to prevent the tears from trickling down.
No one in this entire world except her mother had ever been willing to warm her feet and wash her hands.
He was such an arrogant and cold man, the sessor of the powerful Jingsheng Enterprise. But he was willing to bend down for her and do such trivial things.
Her heart that had been wobbly and unsure, became determined.
No matter what happenedter, she needed to cherish this moment now.
No matter whether he was being impulsive or going to be like this forever, she thought that she needed to show her sincerity anyway.
Jing Yichen, who was sensitive enough, had noticed Shangguan Nings change. With a smile hovering at his lips, he couldnt help but kiss Shangguan Ning on her forehead.
His kiss was gentle and warm, giving out his bodys scent, making Shangguan Nings heart throb.
The way she rolled her eyes made Jing Yichens breath hitch. His powerful self-control seemed rather fragile in front of her.
After washing her hands, Jing Yichen snatched up a white towel and dried them gently. Then he pulled her to the dining table.
The newly-wedded couple ate quietly. No words were exchanged between them, but a tacit agreement could be sensed in the air. This tacit agreement had seemed to exist even at their first meeting.
For many years, Shangguan Ning had been eating all by herself, same with Jing Yichen. At this moment, when both of them were eating together, their hearts which had been lonely for so many years, were now filled with an air of domesticity.
Jing Yichen ate a lot, maybe because he hadnt eaten properly for an entire day. He ate extremely fast yet he wasnt gulping it down. Instead, he looked so elegant.
Shangguan Ning wasnt feeling well, so she finished the food very fast.
Then, she turned her eyes towards Jing Yichen and stared at him.
Jing Yichen took a sip of the pigeon soup and said lightly, Are you thinking that your husband is really delicious as well?
Shangguan Ning blinked, and burst intoughter.
After dinner, Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning to the bedroom and pointed at the wardrobe. Your clothes are all in the wardrobe. Pick any you want. I am going to shower.
Seeing Jing Yichen entering the bathroom, Shangguan Ning opened the wardrobe in bewilderment and then her eyes widened.
It was only yesterday morning when she had opened this wardrobe and found it full of Jing Yichens clothes, and now all of them were reced with women clothes of her size.
Shangguan Ning grinned. She suddenly thought that maybe life would be more beautiful than she had imagined.
At least, Jing Yichen would care about her in every single trivial matter.
Shangguan Ning picked a set of loosen pajamas and entered another bathroom.
When she came out, Jing Yichen was already in bed.
Shangguan Ning had no idea whether to retreat or to advance as she stood there.
Although she had told herself that she needed to be a qualified wife. But psychologically, she was not yet ready to sleep with a man.
Seeing her standing there in hesitation, Jing Yichen stood up, took her up and threw her onto the bed.
Shangguan Ning let out a cry of surprise and shrank into the corner.
Jing Yichen swept her into his arms. Who are you hiding from? We are legally married, what is wrong with sleeping together? Also, what are you dressed so conventionally for?
Although he was speaking something frightening, yet he didnt behave in this way. Instead, he held her in his arms tightly.
Feeling that the woman in his arms rx, Jing Yichen said lightly, Ning, I know that everything happened too quickly. But I dont regret even a single thing. It is okay, lets take it slowly. We will get to know each other better and run this marriage well and fine. I am confident about it.
Her heartbeat kicked up at his words, making it difficult for her to calm down.
His voice was light yet filled with strength of determination, bringing her endless courage.
She ced her head into his arms and replied lightly, Okay!
It was a dreamless night. She woke up in his arms the following morning.
All seemed quite unrealistic C the warm hug, the handsome face and the flirty air.
Jing Yichen nted a soft kiss on her forehead. His voice was low and sexy. My honey, good morning! Did you sleep wellst night?
Shangguan Ning was still drowsy. She nodded sleepily upon hearing the words.
How did it feel to have your husbands arm as the pillow? And, where did the droolinge from, on my chest?
Shangguan Ning flushed instantly. She was instantly awake at this moment.
She jumped off the bed and rushed into the bathroom, trying to avoid his scorching eyes.
Jing Yichensughter followed her there.
Shangguan Ning realized btedly that she had been fooled by him again!
She never drooled when she slept. She tended to sleep in a good posture.
She brushed her teeth angrily, ignoring that mans childish joke.
Shangguan Ning was about to change after she finished washing herself up when Jing Yichen stretched out his arms and grabbed the clothes.
Take a rest at home today. You arent allowed to go anywhere today! His voice didnt sound so cold as usual, but it was still bossy and making Shangguan Ning feel warm inside.
It wont be good if I dont work!
Why not, I am the boss! I have the final say! If I ask the assistant to take the leave, then the assistant isnt allowed to go to work! The handsome President was bossy beyond words could describe.
I didnt get the work easily. I need to work hard! I am only able to protect myself when I have certain power, otherwise some bossy President would force me to report work someday. Shangguan Ning was trying to convince her own boss.
Jing Yichen knew that she had a lot toin, so he got kind of unconfident too and softened his tone. I got really angry the other day. You promised to stay at home but went to work in sickness, instead. And you got a fever too. I was just worried about you. I didnt forbid you to work. You can do anything you want when you get well. But you really need to take a good rest at home for the next few days.
Shangguan Ning suddenly thought of his schedule that was ruined because of her. She asked anxiously, Have you bought Star Media yet?
Jing Yichen was startled. He never expected that Shangguan Ning would ask this question.
Chapter 53 - Greeting, Mr. Zhao!
Chapter 53: Greeting, Mr. Zhao!
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Not yet.
Jing Yichen shook his head. Dont worry. We will have a new negotiation this morning. It is just a matter of extra money.
As a matter of fact, serious problems had urred regarding the buyout of Star Media.
But none of these had anything to do with Shangguan Ning. The essence of the problem didnt arise because of her. She didnt know about all of this. He was able to handle everything. And even if he wasnt, there was no need to tell her. That would worry her unnecessarily.
Shangguan Ning sounded a bit guilty. Was it my fault? Doctor Mu said that you had missed many important projects on your first day, and that you needed to take on many responsibilities. Uncle Jing and the shareholders are displeased with you... are you... alright?
Jing Yichen didnt understand who were the people she had referred to, until a whileter.
No wonder Shangguan Nings attitude towards him had changed so drastically yesterday. It mustve been Mu Qing who would have spoken some nonsense!
The entire Jingsheng Enterprise had already became his responsibility and he had a say in everything. He would make everyone answerable for their follies! However, he did indeed feel grateful towards Mu Qing.
As for Uncle Jing...
What he cared about was the way she addressed him.
Do you know Jing... my father.. well? Actually, he was aware that Shangguan Ning didnt know his father Jing Zhongxiu well, otherwise she would have known Jing Yichen. He was just wondering why Shangguan Ning had addressed him in this intimate way.
Jing Yichen was fond of asking questions indirectly.
Shangguan Ning shook her head lightly. No, I dont. My uncle said that I met him once when I was a child. I almost fell into the river back then, and it was he, who had held me up and given me all of the fish he caught. I have met him once since then C that was when he happened to visit me with Uncle, at the hospital.
Shangguan Ning suddenly realized something at this moment C no wonder Jing Zhongxiu looked familiar when she saw him at that time. It was because of Jing Yichen. The father and son looked very simr, the only stark difference being their age. How silly she was!
All the clues had been referring to Jing Yichen, but she never saw through them.
Jing Yichen knew about Jing Zhongxiu and Huang Lihans visit to Shangguan Ning, at the hospital. But it was for the first time that Shangguan Ning had shared an incident about her childhood.
So, his father had held her once?
Jing Yichen was a bit annoyed. He said subconsciously, Why did you allow him to hold you? You shouldnt have. Even though you were little!
Shangguan Ning had no idea whether she should cry orugh. This man was way too bossy. Why would he get jealous of such a weird thing?
I was only ten back then! Cant you behave a bit rationally? Uncle Jing saved me. But for him, I would have probably drowned!
Jing Yichen nodded hesitantly. So that means the old man did a good deed?
Shangguan Ning nodded positively. Uncle Jing is a good man!
That was because you didnt know him yet, thought Jing Yichen. Anyone who knew him wouldnt consider him to be a good man.
You are addressing him in an intimate manner, but I have never heard you addressing me in the same way. He was now bothered about the way she addressed his father after he was done with the issue of him holding her.
Shangguan Nings head ached. She just realised that this man was actually like a child, even though he looked so mature and calm.
Her heart softened seeing this side of him.
She looked at him with her bright eyes and said, Thats how we address senior people, right? Always Uncle something. Isnt it way better than Lord ?
Jing Yichen couldnt help butugh upon hearing the word Lord. He thought that it would be a good idea to make Shangguan Ning address Jing Zhongxiu in that way sometimeter. He remembered Jing Zhongxius poker face.
Lord Jing did sound great!
Hang on! Was this girl trying to change the subject?
Let me hear how you address me.
Shangguan Nings smile froze. It seemed that she had not seeded in changing the subject.
She thought for a moment and said. Greeting, Mr. Zhao!
Mr. Zhao...
Jing Yichen grinned when he heard this form of address.
Then he said softly, Ning, I didnt lie to you on purpose. My mothers family is Zhao. Earlier, when I used to dislike Jing as the family name, I kept telling others that my family name was Zhao. So you are not wrong in addressing me like this.
As a matter of fact, Shangguan Ning had forgiven him ages ago. Hearing that he didnt like using Jing as the family name earlier, Shangguan Ning was aware that he must have experienced bitterness and pain. The kind that no one would be able to gauge. Therefore, she no longer thought about his past any more.
As long as she knew that he didnt mean any harm, it was enough.
Shangguan Ning didnt want to make him sad, so sheforted him with a smile and said, You shouldnt me me for the misunderstanding. Anan keeps calling you Brother as if you both were siblings. I couldnt help but assume that your family name was Zhao too. Besides, you didnt object to my calling you Mr.Zhao, even though I had addressed you as Mr. Zhao on various asions. If you thought it was a mistake, you would have corrected me sooner, right?
I am Anans cousin. Her mother and my mother are sisters. We grew up together, just like real siblings. He took Shangguan Ning into his arms softly, and ced his chin on her forehead. Her fragrance invaded his nostrils, giving him pleasure.
You trust people too easily. Invading someone elses privacy and asking more questions is sometimes, a good habit. As for me, I will never lie to you again. There will be no more misunderstandings like this.
Shangguan Nings face blushed when she was in his arms. Why did she feel so secure every time he held her?
Well, I need to go now. I can handle everything in thepany. That is a mans job, and you need not worry about it. Take rest at home for a few days and get better.
Shangguan Ning had never been spoilt in this way before, gentle, caring and slightly bossy. No one had been this kind to her ever.She had been used to days when she was alone and taking care of all her responsibilities on her own.
His words were soforting that people would want to depend on him.
She felt that marrying him was probably the best thing she had done in her life.
She felt that she should try to adjust herself to her new life and identity. Jing Yichen knew that this adjustment wouldnt happen overnight. He didnt expect her to fall for him, just yet. He was already satisfied with the current situation.
Shangguan Ning felt like a silly girl. How could her heart fly away when she was already in his arms?
Jing Yichen left for thepany. After a while,Shangguan Ning got bored, so she decided to go out for sometime. At the door, she was taken aback to be stopped by several men in ck. The leading man said courteously, Lady, Master said that you are not allowed to go out.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but get annoyed seeing their behaviour.
How could he do this ? Sending people to guard and restrain her? That was illegal. Actually, she didnt intend to go out. Her physical condition was still unstable. The wound at the back of her head had been torn apart too many times. Even cold wind would agonize her. She dare not go out or overwork herself any more. That being said, this arrangement of having guards monitor her movements, bothered her. She put on a coat and decided to look around Jing Yichens apartment.
She walked around and discovered that the entire 27th floor belonged to him. The apartment took up more than thousands of square meters, and included a walk in closet, a study, a gym, a piano room, a painting room etc. Everything possible was avable. She got a bit dizzy after taking a short tour. Now she understood why several trucks and hoists had been used, when Jing Yichen moved here.
Eventually, Shangguan Ning entered an elegant painting room. Out of curiosity,she lifted the veil off a canvas that stood on an easel, in the middle of the room.

Chapter 54: Aunt Introduced a Boyfriend
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Smiling face of a young girl greeted her eyes.
She was around 18 or 19 years old. Her long hair were draped over her shoulders and her facial features were as exquisite as those of a doll. Her smile was innocent and lovely, and herrge pair of eyes were twinkling with a touch of cunningness. On the tip of her nose there was a beauty mole, which added an air of uniqueness to her.
The painter had apparently been quite an expert. To be able to paint the soul of a character, required not only excellent painting skills, but also heart and emotion.
Shangguan Ning had learnt painting earlier. There were many a time when the teacher said that the character she painted,cked soul. She never understood that before. She did now, at the sight of this picture.
The fact that this was thetest paper and newly painted, showed that this painting was recent. The paint had slightly solidified and the paint brushes were still on the table next to the drawing board. Several sketches were lying under the brushes, and the woman on the paper was exactly the same as the one on the drawing board.
Shangguan Ning calmly covered the painting with the veil. She could clearly feel a sense of bitterness and sourness arising in her heart. It took awhile for it to go away.
Or maybe, her feelings for Jing Yichen werent as deep so as to make her behave irrationally. She still confronted the situation calmly.
It was just a picture. It didnt mean anything serious.
Jing Yichens confident words about marriage which he had spokenst night, were still ringing in her ears. If he was thinking about someone else in his heart whilst holding her in his arms and saying such things with determination, then he was truly an excellent yer at love and it was reasonable for her to be fooled. She would have nothing else to say!
When she had seen Xie Zhuojun and Shangguan Rouxue sleeping together, naked, with her own eyes, she was still able to give Xie Zhuojun a chance to exin. Even though she was totally heart-broken.
At this moment, she had seen nothing, and she would listen to Jing Yichens exnation, whatever the matter was. Besides, the girl in the picture looked childish and may have been less than 20 years old. It didnt seem like there was anything special going on between them.
A misunderstanding between two people is generated due tock ofmunication and exnation. A silly misunderstanding could bury the sincerest love.
Since Shangguan Ning had decided to cherish this marriage, she ought not to doubt him or think unreasonably.
However, she was a possessive woman after all. She still felt a knot stirring in her heart when she noticed her husband painting a portrait of some other girl. So she decided to give Jing Yichen a surprise.
She went to the kitchen and before she finished her work, someone else delivered a surprise to her as well.
The leading man among the guards, outside walked in and said courteously, Lady, there are unexpected guests on the sixth floor. Should I get rid of them?
Shangguan Ning was startled Cget rid of them?
No, no, it is okay! I will go and meet them myself. She waved her arms. Whoever the unexpected guests were, they should not be asked to leave without any reason.
What kind of people did Jing Yichen hire? They all looked good-natured and honest, but in reality, they were all so ruthless.
What is your name?
I am Lee Duo, Lady.
Shangguan Ning took a look at Lee Duo. He didnt have a striking appearance, neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin. The ck clothes on him were neither new or old. He was definitely one of the most ordinary men she had seen. He didnt have any special facial features. Even his voice was so ordinary that people might find it difficult to remember him.
Where did Jing Yichen find this man. He was so talented!
Shangguan Ning went to the sixth floor. Lee Duo followed, with ten of his team members.
She stole a nce at the aggressive behaviour of the team. She couldnt help but feel that her head had started to ache. But Lee Duo refused to leave because of Jing Yichens orders, which he considered to be carved in stone.
Shangguan Ning found that the door was opened when she came to her apartment at the sixth floor. She couldnt help but ask Lee Duo, Who opened the door?
It was your Aunt, Lady.
Shangguan Ning looked at him with surprise. He even knew about her Aunt!
But she didnt ask any more. If he knew about Aunt Lin Yu, then it couldnt have been something he had known since too long. She assumed that it might have been Jing Yichen who asked him to do some research recently. People around her must have been under his review as far as she knew Jing Yichens personality.
Shangguan Ning opened the door and was about to go inside when she found that Lee Duo was following her with his team. She thought for a while and said, I can go in by myself. She is my Aunt and I am in my own home. It will be fine.
Lee Duo stayed silent for a while and said in a low voice. If Lady thinks that there are too many of us here, then I can follow you alone whilst others can wait outside. Your Aunt is not alone, a man is with her too.
Shangguan Ning understood that this was the lowest limit. Although she found it quite weird, yet Aunt had been getting progressively crazy during the past few days. Now she had brought a man here, and she must have thought of some n again. It might be good to have someone alongside.
She nodded and walked in with Lee Duo.
In the room, Aunt Lin Yu was smiling towards a young man who looked very chubby. She looked at her instantly.
She also nced at the ordinary and honest-looking Lee Duo and assumed that he was the guard of thepound who apanied Shangguan Ning, seeing that someone hade to Shangguan Nings home without invitation.
She ignored Lee Duo and forced a false smile towards her niece. She walked towards Shangguan Ning with an intention to hug her . Oh, Ning, I have missed you so much that I came to see you again! How have you been? She said, with much exaggeration.
Shangguan Ning looked at her coldly and dodged Lin Yus arms quickly. She replied breezily, Thanks to you, Aunt, I didnt freeze to deathst time you were here. I would have a better life, if it wasnt for you. Please leave now, you are not wee here!
Aunt dared to visit her, even after she had behaved so ruthlessly,thest time. Shangguan Ning had no intention of being kind to her, even if her aunt had the courage to return.
Ha, you are getting really hot-tempered after several days of separation. With Shangguan Ning showing such bad attitude, Lin Yu stopped smiling as well. But she controlled her anger after taking into ount, the man beside her.
Ning, you are getting quite old, and it is not a good idea to live alone all the time. My heart feels for you, so I have found you a boyfriend. Look at this dear. He is a sessful young man with a handsome face. Someone so difficult to find nowadays!
Shangguan Ning sneered without taking a look at the man. Why dont you give this man to Cousin if you find him so excellent? Arent you afraid of Uncle divorcing you when hees to know that you brought a man with unknown background to my home without my permission?
Shangguan Ning! Dont mistake my kindness as evil. Your uncle and I always quarrel because of you. Why are you alive? Why dont you just die like your mother did?
Lin Yus true intentions were exposed as she said these horrible words.
Shangguan Nings face changed. Her fingers were clenched tightly together.
Get out of here now. Dont make me call the police!
Lin Yu sneered. She never believed that Shangguan Ning would dare to call the police. She would not make a big fuss because of Huang Lihan.
She turned to the man next to her, who kept swallowing his saliva. Ding Lei, this girl is yours. When she marries you, you will be the owner of this apartment. I can give benefits to anyone but this little bitch!
Chapter 55 - Uncle’s Fury
Chapter 55: Uncles Fury
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Hearing Lin Yus words, Shangguan Ning felt her chest aching with pain.
She didnt expect Lin Yu to be so unkind that she spoke of the details of the house deal with the man, in Nings presence. She had been considerate enough before that she tolerated everything Lin Yu did. But now, Lin Yu was getting increasingly worse.
She didnt hesitate for even a second to pull out her phone and made a call.
Hello, is that the police station? This is Room 601, No.1 Building in Landscape Compound on No. 12 Haijing Road. Someone broke into my apartment. Pleasee and catch the criminal.
Lin Yu was startled. She didnt expect that Shangguan Ning would really call the police!
Ms. Lin! Ning said, in a tone that she hadnt heard herself use before. I have already recorded our conversation, and I will hand it over to my uncle. Go home and wait for your divorce. You are not getting even one penny out of Uncles properties.
Shangguan Ning wasnt sure if Uncle would divorce Aunt, but she knew that Uncle would not forgive Aunt easily for todays incident.
She expected that Lin Yun wouldnt forget her behavior today, otherwise things could get worse. She simply didnt have the time and energy to protect herself against her aunt anymore.
How dare you! yelled Lin Yu, on hearing that Shangguan Ning had recorded the conversation. Lin Yu lunged towards her crazily.
But at this moment, a ck silhouette stopped her and kicked her directly to the ground.
Shangguan Ning was shocked. But she did not feel a tinge of sympathy or guilt towards Lin Yu.
Lin Yu felt pain and got really angry after the fall. She pointed at Lee Duo and screamed, You damn bodyguard! How dare you? You are so nosy. I will make you suffer! Ding Lei, beat her to death!
Hearing these words, Ding Lei lunged at Shangguan Ning directly.
He was tall, chubby, and looked fierce. He had evil eyes and didnt seem like a good man at all. He didnt seem to care about Shangguan Ning calling the police. What he cared about was getting a beautiful woman as well as an apartment, worth more than 6 million yuan, today. However, before he was able to touch the Beauty, he felt an enormous pain shooting through his legs, making him copse on his knees, in front of the Beauty.
What Shangguan Ning heard was a cracking sound. Then the so called fierce-looking man was unable to get up any more. Lee Duo had broken his leg with a single kick. He may never be able to recover in his entire life, judging from that bone breaking sound.
When the police arrived, they saw two people standing and watching the scene, whilst two other people were lying on the ground, groaning for help.
They thought that the two people on the ground were victims and were about to catch hold of the two of them standing ,when the elegant woman said. Officer, these two people broke into my home and tried to attack me. Thanks to my friend here, they failed!
Lin Yu, who was lying on the ground, looked like she could pass out at this moment. She had never expected that the incident would turn out this way. Ding Lei was a street criminal, on whom she had spent a lot of money, hiring him from the ck market. He had bragged about his vast connections,so much so that even the police did not dare to touch him.
However, that tall and chubby man was beaten by that ordinary, tiny man. And the police were ignoring himpletely. Instead they bent over backwards to speak with that fierce little bodyguard.
Only now did she realize that she had been set up by Shangguan Ning, the bitch, who had found a proficient guy to beat her.
Such injustice! That bitch even dared to beat a senior family member. She was surely going to report that to her husband.
However, when Huang Lihan bailed her out from the police station in the afternoon, he looked colder than ever.
Lin Yu was not scared at all. Her husband would only stay pissed for a couple of days and nag her for some time. He was definitely not going to behave in any different manner. He was a man with affection and righteousness and he would never divorce her like Shangguan Ning said. He wouldnt divorce her for the sake of their daughter, Huang Xinyi.
She whined about Shangguan Nings terrible deed. That girl is going from worse to worst. She made someone break Xinyis arms and hired someone to beat me this time. She even called the police. She never treats me as a senior. Is this how she repays me when I introduce a boyfriend to her? If you dare to give her anything in future, Xinyi and I will die right in front of you!
Huang Lihan suddenly stopped the car. He roared, Get out of the car. You are not worthy of being Nings aunt. Nor are you worthy of being my wife.
Lin Yu was taken aback by his anger. She didnt speak until a whileter. What... what did you say?
If Nings friend had not been here, she would have been ruined by you today. That street criminal was tall and strong, and Ning wouldnt have had any strength to fight back. What a good Aunt you have been! Huang Lihan was so angry by the end of the sentence, that his entire body shivered.
He didnt dare to imagine what would have happened today.
His wife had turned out to be so ruthless that she would ruin his sisters only daughter. There must have been many other things he wouldnt have been aware of on other asions, the ones which Ning had concealed from him, for their sake.
Fear arose in him. If something would have happened to Ning, there would have been no way to undo the incident.
He was outraged beyond words. He didnt care about the love between them, as a husband and wife, that almost didnt exist any more, anyway.
If Lin Yu had been concerned about him even a bit or respected him as her husband, she would not have treated Ning in this way.
Huang Lihans voice was hoarse and tired but full of determination and coldness. Usually, I dont care so much about what you are up to every day. I forgive you for bad mouthing Ning and my sister. I forgive you for taking all valuable things back to your moms house. I also pretend never to have seen you selling the jewellery I gave to our daughter as a gift, to pay for your gambling.
He had forgiven his wife so many times but his wife had simply been getting worse. She was no longer as kind and virtuous as before. She was full of conspiracy and ruthlessness now.
But whatever you did, you should have never, ever done such an obscene thing to her. You could have juste to me for the apartment, because it is I who gave the apartment to her. Xinyi has learnt so many terrible things from your ruthless behaviour that now she has be a monster too!
Huang Lihans vein on the forehead popped, his fist clenched tightly, as if trying hard to prevent himself from beating her.
Get out now! As far as possible! I dont want to see you anymore.
Only now did Lin Yu feel the fear. Huang Lihan had known everything she did on the sly. She had hoped that her husband would just be annoyed for a moment rather than push her away cold-heartedly.
However, Huang Lihan unexpectedly opened the door and pushed her outside.
Soon, the car disappeared out of her sight, without stopping even for a moment.
Lin Yu copsed on the road. The makeup on her face was all smudged, hair unkempt and she was penniless.
The pedestrians all stared and pointed at her as if she were a monster. In the end, Lin Yu copsed and started to cry loudly,still lying on the ground.
Chapter 56 - Low-Priced Buyout of Star Media
Chapter 56: Low-Priced Buyout of Star Media
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Lee Duo had reported everything that happened at the apartment to Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen was livid with Lin Yu for constantly causing trouble. He asked Lee Duo to take good care of Shangguan Ning and sent him a text that read : the property management department was unqualified to handle the situation.
A couple of minutester, every member at the property management department of Landscape Compound, including the guards and the management, were changed.
Ji Bo, the representative of Star Media, was quite unimpressed with the absent-minded Jing Yichen who was sitting on the opposite side of the conference table. He knocked at the table , frowning and trying to draw Jing Yichens attention.
But Jing Yichen was still staring at the screen of the cell phone as if he were deaf.
Tiger stood behind Jing Yichen whilst two representatives of Jingsheng Enterprise were sitting on each side. One of them was the temporary assistant to the President, filling in for Shangguan Ning C Lu Qing.
Seeing that the delegates from Star Media were getting impatient with Jing Yichens self absorbed behaviour, Lu Qing understood that it was time for him to defuse the tension in the air. He deliberately reminded Jing Yichen (in a tone that was clearly audible to all those present) President, President Ji has just put forward a new buyout proposal for your approval.
He was definitely an experienced man. He had sessfully ced Jingsheng Enterprise on a mantle and Star Media at a much lower rung of thedder. Jing Yichen asked softly, as if he had just snapped out of his reverie, What new buyout proposal? Didnt we alreadye to an agreement before? All the other proposals are useless!
Ji Bo finally stood up out of control. His handsome face was full of fury as he said coldly. Master Jing, do you think a buyout is a joke? Or maybe you dont care about our Family Ji?
His smashed the conference table, with his fist.
You skipped ourst meeting. My cousin Ji Lili waited for you during the lunch hour without eating anything. Today, we came here on your invitation for a new negotiation, and this is your attitude towards us? Even the old president would treat us courteously but you, the new President, are simply too arrogant and conceited!
Jing Yichen replied with indifference, Three days, and your asking price doubled from 100 million to 200 million. If your Family Ji is so desperate for money, then you can simply go to usury instead of conducting such grant robbery.
If you think that Jing Zhongxiu suits you better, then dont waste my time any more henceforth. How can I be courteous to Family Ji when you are already willing to sell a woman to push this deal forward?
Having said the words, Jing Yichen stood up, adjusted his suit and left Jingsheng with his team. Family Ji was left behind licking their wounds in fury.
Lu Qing intended to remind this new indifferent President that if he continued to dy the buyout of Star Media, then the entire prophase investment of the Enterprise in the entertainment industry might go up in smoke.
But Jing Yichen apparently had no intention of taking any advice. Besides, the old President had told him not to interfere with anything that Jing Yichen did, no matter what the result. So he let things be.
He sighed and went back to the office, in silence.
Lu Qing entered the office and was about to sit down when Jing Yichen came to him. Assistant Shangguan is sick. I will give her some more days off. Assistant Lu, please handle her responsibilities for the next few days.
Lu Qing replied in the affirmative, but truth be told, he was quite bewildered.
He had a feeling that whatever was going on between Jing Yichen and Assistant Shangguan, wasnt ordinary. It was definitely special otherwise a person with Jing Yichens attitude and caliber would not have bothered toe to him, specifically for this matter.
Jing Yichen returned to work and started to deal with the daily business of the Enterprise. He needed to spend a great deal of energy and time in sorting out its affairs, since he had recently taken over. He need not have worried though, as he had a sharp business acumen, abundant resources, a vast experience and diligent staff. Nothing would be difficult for him.
For example, the buyout of Star Media would have worked out for both sides, if the price had been reasonable. But apparently, Family Ji was using the buyout as an opportunity to ckmail and he hated to admit that he himself was certainly not at his best either.
Several dayster, there were rumours of certain celebrities at Star Media, indulging in drugs. These starlets were not only imprisoned but also dispelled from the entertainment industry because of the rumour. No one knew who spread this rumour.
Star Media faced instant public bacsh, and popr actors and actresses started to terminate their contracts, one after another. Coborating partners chose to divest and some TV-series were even scrapped halfway. The StarMedia stock price fell tremendously.
One weekter, Jingsheng Enterprise bought Star Media at a price of 50 million dors and Star Media became a formal subsidiary of Jingsheng Enterprise.
Only a few weeks after Jing Yichen took over as President, millions of yuan had been saved by the Enterprise. The shareholders all expressed their support and gratitude to Jing Yichen.
...
It was a blurry, snowy night. A light still shone on the 76th floor of the high rise Jingsheng Enterprise Building.
It was Chinese New Year the next day. The staff at the Enterprise had all left for home to celebrate with their loved ones after receiving their generous bonus given by the President.
It was already close to midnight when Jing Yichen finished working on thest document.
Suddenly, a mug of fragrant coffee appeared by his hand side. He picked it up subconsciously and said thank you.
Then he sensed something amiss and looked up, only to see a slender and slim silhouette.
His cold face instantly turned gentle. Why did you return? It is so cold. I told you to wait for me at home!
He stood up and came to Shangguan Ning. He wiped the snowkes off her shoulders. His eyes were so profound as if wanting to engrave her image into his soul.
Shangguan Ning grinned, and handed the coffee mug to him once more. Drink when it is warm. I made it with the coffee beans I ground.
She had resumed work at Jingsheng recently as Jing Yichens assistant, under the guidance of Lu Qing.
She left work at 5:30 p.m and visited the caf she operated, where she made a mug of coffee for Jing Yichen. He was a picky man who never drank instant coffee, only the recently-ground kind.
Seeing Shangguan Ning being so hospitable, Jing Yichen wasnt sure what to make of it. He wondered if he should drink from this fragrant mug of coffee.
His life had been full of bitterness after Shangguan Ning found the girls painting in his painting room. That evening when he hade home to dinner, nothing seemed right. The seemingly tasty kelp soup was too sour to drink. Shangguan Ning had poured the entire bottle of vinegar into it. The rest of the food was either too spicy or unsalted. Even the rice was half cooked.
Moreover, from that day on, Shangguan Ning had refused to share the bed with him. She insisted on sleeping in separate beds.
How pitiful it was for a newly-wedded man like him C to not even able toe within an arms distance of his beautiful wife.
He didnt know what happened. He kept pestering his wife to find out what had brought on her unreasonable behaviour, but Shangguan Ning did nothing but smile, refusing to say anything.
He learnt from the cleaning staff only today that Shangguan Ning stayed by herself in the painting room for a very long time, the other day.
He would give her a detailed exnation, but right now the coffee beckoned...
My dear wife, you didnt put any extra spices in todays coffee, did you? Jing Yichen asked as he held Shangguan Nings soft, little hands.
The past few days when Shangguan Ning worked as his assistant, she had served terrible tasting coffee. That wasnt all, she even forced him to drink it, making him very wary of her tricks. He was not pleased to have to go through this plight even though he was President.

Shangguan Ning pushed the coffee towards him and said in a jovial tone You will know after you try it.
Seeing her expression, Jing Yichens heart shivered. He epted the mug and took a sip from it.
The taste was smooth, fragrant and pure C it was top-notch Blue Mountain Coffee.
His eyes sparkled and he said in a tone of appreciation, Very good!
He wasnt a man who could be easily pleased, and a very gooding from him was a rare urrence.
Of course. I am skillful in coffee making. said Shangguan Ning with a smile on her face. She didnt spare any efforts in praising herself.
Your husband will be blessed. This woman made terrible food but wonderful coffee. Jing Yichen drank up the coffee with pleasure and then tried to wrap his arms around her slender waist.
Shangguan Ning dodged him by stepping backwards, not allowing him to touch her whilst still smiling brightly. Alright, time to go home. You are the only one left at work in the entire building, President, Sir!
Jing Yichen leaned forward and cornered her until she had nowhere else to retreat. Then he took her into his arms, gently.
His heart felt somehow secure with this beautifuldy in his arms.
Her lips shone temptingly under the light. They were fresh and plump, making her look so desirable that he wanted to kiss her.
Jing Yichen bent his head and intended to do just that.
Shangguan Ning tilted her head subconsciously so that the kiss fell upon her jade-like white face instead.
She gave Jing Yichen a push in annoyance, but failed.
Jing Yichen looked down at the woman in his arms, and swept his fingers across her lips and asked, Annoyed?
Shangguan Ning moved his roving hand and looked at him. She feigned ignorance and asked in a nonchnt voice, For what?
Seeing that she wanted to get rid of his arms, Jing Yichen nailed her against the wall and asked in a teasing tone, Then why have you been pranking me for the entire week?
Their bodies were leaning tightly into each other, so much so that they could hear the sound of the others heartbeat.
Shangguan Ning panicked. She blushed.
Shameless you are, let go of me...
I can be even more shameless. Wanna try? He asked seductively, as his mouth flicked and nibbled on her exquisite earlobe.
Shangguan Ning felt as if she was hit by thunder. A feeling of numbness instantly spread across her entire body from their point of contact .Her knees weakened and she found herself leaning against Jing Yichens arms, feebly.
On this dark night, the air in the office of the President was charged with warmth and sexual tension.
It was only after a while that Shangguan Ning was able to push Jing Yichen away with all her strength. She snatched her handbag and turned around, her cheeks flushing.
But someone was faster than her and picked her up in his arms.
Shangguan Ning struggled both annoyedly and shyly. Let go of me, I can walk by myself!
Dont you want to know who the girl on the painting is? Jing Yichen held her tightly so she couldnt struggle any more as he presented her with a tempting offer, one which she was unable to turn down.
Of course Shangguan Ning wanted to know the answer!
She had her arms around Jing Yichens neck unhappily and thought angrily C okay, just let him take advantage of the situation. He was so good-looking anyway and she was not losing anything either. It indeed was a win C win.
Jing Yichen smiled to himself when he saw her obeying him.
With her in his arms, Jing Yichen took the elevator to the car park. Jing Yichen didnt mention anything about the girl, until they entered the car.
Shangguan Ning pinched Jing Yichens waist and said mockingly. I didnt expect you to have another woman in your heart. That too such a young girl.
She sounded quite bitter and jealous, which pleased Jing Yichen.
Sigh.... now I understand why the soup and coffee that I have been drinking tasted so sour. It seems that someone is jealous! He teased as he sped towards Landscape Compound in the car.
Jing Yichen dragged Shangguan Ning to the painting room as soon as they arrived home.
He unveiled the drawing board, exposing the portrait of the girl as he said lightly, I always thought that she had died. But she is still alive, unexpectedly.
This single sentence gripped Shangguan Nings heart.
Jing Yichen took down the painting and held it with several other sketches, took out a lighter and set them on fire.
Seeing that Shangguan Ning intended to stop him but didnt, Jing Yichen said, I thought she had died. That was why I painted her so that I wont forget what she looks like. I was scared that I wouldnt recognize her in case I found her. But now that she is still alive,there is no need to keep these paintings any more. I sought her for ten years and finally, I found her.
Shangguan Ning asked involuntarily seeing the sadness in his eyes. Your first girlfriend?
She didnt even realize that her tone seemed stinging, exposing the displeasure in her heart.
Jing Yichen put the painting into the huge crystal ashtray and let it burn . Then he lifted his hands and tucked Shangguan Nings hair from her temples to the back of her ears.
He said seriously, My first girlfriend is standing right in front of me, looking at me with stinging eyes. My first rtionship is with a girl called Shangguan Ning. It is not a very sessful rtionship, and she is married to me out of force, but she is the only one in my heart. She had to marry me despite her unwillingness.
Shangguan Ning was startled hearing this confession of love,ing from him. The words were music to her ears. She had never heard anything like this before.
She was his first love??
He had not been in even one rtionship even though he was 32 years old??
It was as if Jing Yichen was able to read her mind, because he chuckled lightly and said, No need to doubt me. Your husband has never been in any rtionship before. I have too refined a taste to be interested in those ordinary women. As for you... you have not only been in a rtionship, but also were engaged. Luckily, not everyone has an eye thats capable of recognising a diamond, when it sees one. He let go of you. Otherwise I would probably have to pull you out of a wedding rather than force you into one!
Excitement arose in Shangguan Nings heart. She was mumbling as if wanting to say something when all of a sudden, Jing Yichen bent down his head and kissed her mouth.
She felt like the air around her was taken away in one instant. Initially, he was gentle and soft, but soon he wanted more and started to kiss her deeply.
The charged atmosphere, her sweet vour, as well as the warm air had made Jing Yichen obsessive. He was exploring her body in ces where she hadnt been touched before.
Jing Yichen didnt let go of her until Shangguan Ning felt suffocated.
His breath was unstable, and his eyes deepened in color, looking enchanting.
Shangguan Nings face was burning. She didnt dare to look at him in the eyes.
Her lips were bruised red and looked so tempting. Her white cheeks were flushed, just like red apples, so lovely that he simply wanted to take a bite out of them!
Jing Yichen couldnt help but kiss her softly once again. He paused for a moment and took her into his arms.
He never expected that his desire for her was so strong. It was like a poisonous pill that made him totally addicted to her. He would go crazy if the situation worsened.
Shangguan Ning, who had been kissed by him, was light headed with happiness. She felt happy high that one gets from being drunk on love.
The kiss of today was totally different from their kiss on the day that they were married. She had been unwilling then and suffering from a broken heart. She wondered why did this kiss taste so much sweeter?
Chapter 58 - Chinese New Year Together
Chapter 58: Chinese New Year Together
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
The Chinese New Year came the following day, but Shangguan Ning didnt go home. She actually had no home to go back to.
Jing Yichen didnt go back to Family Jing either. He spent the entire day with Shangguan Ning. They put up a couplet for good luck, hung up the happiness tag and pasted the red paper-cut patterns on the windows. Shangguan Ning had bought all this from the mall.
What had been the chances of both of them returning to China, this year? More so, because during the past few years, they spent Chinese New Year alone, away from home. This year was special because they were no longer alone at this time of the year. They had each other and a home, together.
Shangguan Ning didnt know much about Family Jing, but the way his grandma spoke to him about marriage, had left a deep impression on her. She felt that the olddy cared a lot about her grandson.
She asked hesitantly, Is it okay... if you dont go home?
Jing Yichen raised his eyes and said calmly, This is my home.
Seeing Shangguan Ning worried, he held her hands in his and reassured her. Dont worry. No one needs me except you. I havent celebrated Chinese New Year for a long time. Now I am celebrating it with you, please dont push me away.
Shangguan Ning suddenly felt an ache in her heart.
She wondered to herself, howe no one needed him except for her...
He was such a lovely person. He should be the pride of the family.
The Chinese normally celebrated the Chinese New Year together. It was the biggest and the most traditional festival in China. This was the time everyone spent with their families unless they were orphans or pitiful people like her, whose families were non-existent despite being present.
He was a man with a family, but he didnt celebrate Chinese New Year either...
Shangguan Ning grinned. She took his hands of her own ord for the first time and said, I am not pushing you away. What am I going to do if you leave? I havent celebrated Chinese New Year with anyone for many years either. Now that we are legally married, we must celebrate the New Year together.
Jing Yichen smiled finally. The smile spread from his heart to his face and eyes, making him extremely satisfied.
Finally, he too had his own family.
He hugged Shangguan Ning and then pulled her to the kitchen, to make dumplings.
The chef and the servants were all off for the holiday, at Jing Yichens order. Even Tiger was on leave along with Lee Duo. They both went to spend time with friends.
The couple were the only two left at home.
The sound of firecrackers arose every now and then from outside. Some children were running about happily on the small square patch in thepound. The kids lit up firecrackers while their parents chided them, asking them to stay careful. The yearly Chinese New Year g was on TV again, as usual, and the air of New Year was spreading across the room, filling up the entire apartment.
Shangguan Ning had a fleeting I-could-cry moment seeing Jing Yichen put the shrimp-filled dumplings into her bowl carefully, as she was eating them.
It was so nice to have him to celebrate the Chinese New Year with.
Jing Yichens feelings mirrored her own. He truly felt that the most impulsive thing he had ever done in this life, namely forcing Shangguan Ning into a marriage with him, was the best decision he had ever made.
He savoured the shapeless dumplings that Shangguan Ning had made and felt that they were the tastiest food ever.
After dinner, Shangguan Ning suddenly felt like joining the lively kids downstairs, and cajoled Jing Yichen toe with her.
The sound of firecrackers sttered everywhere. A kid pranked Shangguan Ning by throwing a small firecracker at her feet. It exploded, making Shangguan Ning scream in fright. Jing Yichen immediately took her into his arms and asked anxiously, Ning, are you hurt?
Shangguan Ning screamed only because she was caught off guard. She wasnt scared of firecrackers. Besides, the firecrackers these children yed with, were too tiny to hurt anyone.
Enjoying the warmth of Jing Yichens arms, she replied I am okay. Dont worry.
Jing Yichens heart felt better hearing that she was fine. He turned towards the mischievous kid with a serious face.
That kid was also aware that he had made a mistake by frightening someone. He dashed off instantly seeing the serious-faced Jing Yichen, who was tall and strong.
But he was in such a hurry that he tripped.
Shangguan Ning got hold of Jing Yichen and spoke, feeling both amused and annoyed. Dont scare the kid. He is so little and I am fine. Dont me him for that. She said, as she stretched out her arms to help the kid up. She brushed off the firecracker dust stuck to his body and asked smilingly, What is your name?
The kid thought that she asked for his name so that she could report it to his parents. He had run into trouble with such pranks, too many times before. Whenever he yed a prank on someone, the victim would ask for his name andin to his mother.
The kid didnt speak for a minute but then stuttered I... I will give half of my firecrackers to you, but please dont tell my mom, alright?
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter and nodded. Okay, I wont tell your mom, but you shouldnt frighten others with firecrackers, alright?
Okay! He agreed without hesitation.
Tell me, what is your name?
I am Doudou! The little boy said as he stuffed the entire box of firecrackers into Shangguan Nings hands. Then he ran away,ughing.
He stopped at a distance and shouted, Aunt, you are so pretty!
Shangguan Ning couldnt help butugh.
A reassuring feeling filled Jing Yichens heart as he watched Shangguan Ning getting along well with the kid. He loved how loving and gentle she was, around the child.
He went up and wrapped his hand around her waist as he whispered slowly in her ear. You like kids?
Shangguan Ning was already used to his touch, but she was still not used to hearing him seducing her like this. She blushed and turned her head around.
Children have the purest heart. I like them very much. I had envisioned being a kindergarten teacher, when I was little. As I grew up, I realised that teachers at kindergarten are required to be capable of a lot of things, such as painting, singing, dancing, to name a few. Unfortunately, my only capability is ying tennis, thanks to my long legs. Unfortunately for me, children at kindergarten dont y tennis.
Jing Yichen chuckled in amusement. His eyes lit up as he said, Then we can get several children and you can be their teacher.
Shangguan Ning got startled by his words C several children? What did he think she was?
As for getting children...
She hadnt thought about this before.
Although Jing Yichen feigned indifference most of the time and didnt speak of these things , yet when she was with him, he couldnt help but think about the future.. their future.. Together. He was always concerned about her. And this love and concern was genuine. He didnt have to fake his actions and feelings just for the sake of showing off.
No one, except her mother and uncle, had treated her so nicely all her life. She looked up at this tall, noble man and suddenly felt that all this was unreal. Would she be able to live on in such happiness? Was God trying topensate her for all her past grievances?
If that was the case, then all the pain and despair she had suffered earlier was worth the while.
With a bright smile on her face,she stretched out her hands to Jing Yichen. Give me the lighter, I want to set fire to these crackers and celebrate the New Year.
Only she knew that she was actually celebrating this new phase of life and the fact that she met him!

Jing Yichen loved it when Shangguan Ning asked for something unreasonable or reckless. He loved that he could fulfill her demands C he was aware of his own ability. He was powerful enough to fill up a hole in the sky,if she ever poked open the heavens.
He caressed her smooth, long hair and asked her to be careful while he passed her the lighter.
Shangguan Ning rolled her eyes at him, lit up a firecracker and threw it away.
The cracker went off with a bang and red paper crumbs flew everywhere.
This firecracker is meant for children. Its loud but harmless. It wont hurt me! Why dont you give it a try yourself?
Seeing her having so much fun, Jing Yichenughed as he took a firecracker and did the same.
The two adults yed just like the group of children that were ying earlier. They kept throwing one firecracker after another, totally unaware of their childlike behaviour. Which was a good thing because this time together brought them pure joy.
Atst, when Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen went home, they felt quite rxed after having such a good time.
It waste at night and it was time for bed.
Dressed in pajamas, Jing Yichen carried Shangguan Ningfrom her bedroom to their bedroom.
Shangguan Ning didnt struggle. She didnt require separate bedrooms anymore. Instead, she sleptfortably in Jing Yichens arms.
Jing Yichen was very thankful for this Chinese New Year. He had given up hope of them ever sharing a bed again.
He carefully held her in his arms. The touch of the bodies, as well as the visual impact of seeing Shangguan Ning asleep in his arms, made Jing Yichen almost lose his control again.
Jing Yichen couldnt help but chuckle with disdain as he noticed his arousal.
Howe she always managed to break his strong defense system so easily.
There had been a time in the past when he had started to suspect his own ability because he never took interest in girls.
Now, there was no such doubt.
This couple, who had been drifting through life for a long time, fell asleep in each others arms on this sweet night.
The door of their bedroom was opened early morning the next day by two people who walked in while Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were still asleep.
Jing Yichen was rtively more aware and opened his eyes instantly when he sensed that something was wrong.
However, before he was able to gauge the situation, someone lifted the nket he was sleeping in.
You bad boy! How dare you note home for Chinese New Year? Did you think that I, your grandma, am nothing more than a decoration? Old man,e here and get this heartless grandson home for a spanking. Mo Lan, Jing Yichens grandmother, had a very high pitched voice which even shook the crystal chandeliers on the ceiling.
Shangguan Ning was woken up by her loud voice.
The first thing that she saw was an olddy who had lifted their nket. A reluctant looking old man stood beside her. Both of them were staring at her, dumbfoundedly.
Shangguan Ning let out a scream and tried to hide herself in Jing Yichens arms.
Jing Yichen was upset at the sight of the olddy.
He grabbed the nket back angrily and covered up Shangguan Ning as hefortingly said, Its alright, they are grandpa and grandma. Dont be scared.
With hands still clenching the nket tightly, Shangguan Ning buried her head under the pillow.
She was not scared. She was ashamed!
She had only knee-length pajamas on her and she was entwined with a half-naked Jing Yichen when the nket had been lifted by none other than his grandma.
She was embarrassed beyond description.
Ignoring the petrified old man and olddy, Jing Yichen whispered to her, My wife, you rightly said yesterday that we are legally married. Then why do you act if we were caught in the middle of an affair...
Shangguan Ning flushed even more hearing his words, and kept her head under the nket, refusing to look up.
She did intend to greet Jing Yichens grandparents, but shecked the courage to climb out of bed, given the current situation.
Jing Yichen was aware of her feelings so he patted her gently and got out of the bed to drive away these uninvited visitors .
Intruding upon someones home is illegal. Remember to knock at the door next time youe over. Please leave if you have nothing else to say.
Jing Yichens tone was cold and distant, showing no submissiveness at the sight of seniors.
The olddy was already used to her grandsons behaviour. She was more shocked by what she had just witnessed than by what her grandson just said.
She pinched her husband violently and he let out a painful scream. What are you doing?
The olddy held her heart and said delightedly, Ahh, old man, am I dreaming? Did I just see my grandson sharing his bed with a girl?
Shangguan Ning, who was still under the nket, heard what the olddy said. She was so embarrassed that she wished that she could bury herself into the ground.
Jing Tianyuan, Jing Yichens grandfather remarked annoyedly, Mo Lan, how many times do I have to tell you C you dont need to pinch me if you suspect that you are dreaming? Yichen is a man, would you rather he sleep with a man instead? You are always worried about him. He is more than 30 years old, not a child anymore. Lets go home now. I hadnt even fed my lovely canary because of being dragged here by you.
Although he sounded annoyed, yet his gaze wouldnt leave Jing Yichen. Apparently, he was both surprised and happy to see his grandson with a girlfriend. His boy had finally grown up. In that case, they neednt worry about not having an heir for Family Jing!
Jing Yichen put on a robe and gently led them outside.
Please go home, you two.
Sensing her grandsons displeasure, the olddy finally came to her senses. She grabbed Jing Yichens hands and said. My handsome grandson, when did you get a girlfriend? Why didnt you tell me earlier? I was so worried. Oh my god, lucky for you that I didnt bring a young prospective bride with me, otherwise it would have looked very bad. How old is yourdy friend? What does she like? Please expect some gifts from meter.
An impatient Jing Yichen replied with a blurry okay, turned around and was about to go back inside, when the olddy grabbed hold of him.
She removed the jade bracelet from her wrist and stuffed it into Jing Yichens hand. She said smilingly, I wont disturb you now. Give this jade bracelet to your girlfriend as a first-time gift. I wille again when it is convenient for both of you!
Ah also, treat the girl well. You never take the effort to answer my questions and you always have this cold expression on your face. Even a volcano would freeze over, by your nonchnt attitude.
Remember, girls tend to enjoy being pampered. If you dont know how to pamper her, buy everything for her. We have enough money anyways. Pamper her whenever you quarrel with each other. You should learn from your grandpa, he was...
Jing Tianyuan immediately started to cough when he realised that his wife was going to use him as an example. Mo Lan couldnt stand this behaviour of her husband.. coughing so dreadfully. She wanted to say something more but she was sure Jing Yichen wasnt interested in hearing any of it.
I know! You need not say anything more. Please go home. He said to the olddy, turned around and walked into the bedroom.

In the bedroom, Shangguan Ning had already put on her clothes as fast as she could and was about to walk outside to greet his grandparents.
Seeing him walking back, she asked anxiously, Have they left?
Jing Yichen nodded, lifted his hands to wipe away thin drops of sweat that shone on her forehead and said casually, It is alright. Dont be anxious, not even when you meet them in the future. It is they who came in, unannounced.
Seeing Jing Yichen nonchnt attitude, Shangguan Ning rxed and got rid of her nervousness.
She was not silly. She could see that Jing Yichens behaviour towards his familycked warmth. Although she had no idea why, yet his feelings were her priority. She would be respectful and polite to his family, but both sides will have to put in a fair bit of effort if they were to have a deep and meaningful rtionship .
She believed that Jing Yichen wouldnt be so cold and distant towards his family without a valid background story to it. He must have had his own reasons. If he didnt want to share them with her yet, then she wouldnt pry either.
She too, had her share of messy issues with her family. She had no idea how to tell Jing Yichen about the pain and the damage in her heart. She had no intention of telling him either. Jing Yichen on his part, had been respectful enough to not ask her a thing, when he saw hering out of her home in such a mess, the other night. Instead, he had simply offered her his shoulders, his warmth and a ce that she could call home.
Shangguan Ning pushed these unpleasant thoughts out of her head and said cheerfully, I was just wondering how should I greet them. Now that theyve left, I will go and meet them another day instead!
When Jing Yichen envisioned her panicking sometime ago and how she had tried to worm herself into his arms, he suddenly bent down towards her to kiss her. He had begun to lose all control over himself.
Her lips were gentle and soft. He could smell her fragrance, making him want to suck her lips even more.
Shangguan Ning was startled by Jing Yichens abrupt behavior. She wanted to dodge him, but was unable to move even an inch.
Her breasts were leaning against his half-naked chest, and his heartbeat could be heard clearly. She could feel the warmth of his body..
His kiss was very gentle and full of unspoken affection.She felt spoilt by all the love he gave her.
It took a while before Jing Yichen finished the kiss.
By then, Shangguan Ning was breathless.. like a fish out of water.
Jing Yichen wrapped her into his arms and teased her. Why are you still so unskilled, even after so many kisses? Why do you get breathless?
Shangguan Nings fair cheeks flushed instantly. She red at him in a way she thought was fierce, and walked out with her chin held high.
She an arrogant expression on the face. Bah, unskilled? President Jing wasnt so skilled either!
After her shower, Shangguan Ning sat in the living room and started to read a thick deck of newspapers whilst Jing Yichen went to the kitchen to make some breakfast for them.
There was no other way out C Sister Fang, Sister Lan who were the domestic helps, as well as Old Du who was the chef, had already gone home for the Chinese New Year. Shangguan Ning cooked terribly. Therefore, the President had no option but to do everything himself.
The newspapers had been piling on the table since a week. She had not read any of them ever since she started work. She had been so busy that she hadnt kept herself updated of any current affairs.
Subconsciously, she turned to the financial page and the words Jingsheng Enterprise caught her eyes immediately. Jingsheng Enterprise had been in the limelight for the past one week. Jing Yichen was in the spotlight. The same Jing Yichen who was making breakfast for her in the kitchen, at this very moment.
The newspaper didnt carry his picture, only his name, appearance and a general description of his personality. ording to the journalist, he was not only good-looking and wealthy, but also friendly and humble. At 32, he was the most eligible bachelor in the city.
Now that Jing Yichen had taken over as the new President, people were even more curious about him and his life.
Shangguan Ning knew that each time the journalists went for an interview at Jingsheng Enterprise, it was the Public Rtion Officer who received them. Even the senior assistant Lu Qing would not meet any journalists, let alone Jing Yichen who was topmost in the hierarchy. Lu Qing had also specifically directed the Head of Public Rtions Department that the picture of the President should not be leaked. They could, however, speak of the Presidents positive character traits, so as to build a wonderful image of him. If they failed to follow instructions, they would lose their jobs instantly.
If an individual was appointed as a director at Jingsheng, he or she tended to be a person who understood exactly what the boss wanted. The Director of the Public Rtions Department was a smooth, slick man who was well connected. Therefore, only news of Jing Yichens positive personality made it the newspaper. He was the national heartthrob who was perfect in everything rather than someone who was cold, distant and intelligently skilled.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but smile at the sight of the newspaper. This National Heartthrob Jing Yichen was already married, and if his crazy fans knew about it, they would certainly be heartbroken.
She flipped the newspaper page and the picture that greeted her eyes, spoilt her moodpletely.
On the entertainment page, the headline was Shangguan Rouxue C The citys most popr hostess, bes brand ambassador for the first time.
In the picture, she was wearing her shoulder-length hair open and had donned a whitecy dress that outlined her almost perfect physical figure. She had a white cell phone in one hand, the other hand showing the V sign. She looked gentle, delicate and attractive. Much like a freshly bloomed lotus. Everyone loved her.
Shangguan Ning sneered. How many people had been cheated by Shangguan Rouxues beautiful face. Even she was fooled by it initially C she had thought that her sister would only want the best for her. But after being cheated and used, too many times, she no longer trusted her.
Shangguan Rouxue always yed the victim. She would lose the things she loved, for no apparent fault of hers. Then she would exin to others anxiously, that all this was because of Shangguan Ning ,her sister so that no one could ever me her!
When she was younger, Shangguan Ning would always feel suffocated next to Shangguan Rouxue, because no matter how hard she tried, she would never be able to match up to Shangguan Rouxue, who excelled in grades, appearance, kindness and the love of her father....
But now, Shangguan Ning didnt have these stressful feelings anymore. She understood the kind of woman that Shangguan Rouxue was. ording to Shangguan Rouxue, everyone else was evil, pretentious and upto no good.
Themercialpany she represented, must have been taken in by her charisma of being kind, pure and delicate. But there were hundreds of other stars who were better than her in all these aspects. Why on earth did thepany choose Shangguan Rouxue instead?
When Shangguan Ning read the fine print below, she understood immediately.
Liyu Science & Technology...
Shangguan Nings heart ached.
It was thepany under charge of her second uncle, Shangguan Hang, the one that dealt with high-end digital products. It had a history of more than twenty years.
And Liyu Science & Technology had been named after her mother Huang Liyu.
Chapter 61 - The Holiday
Chapter 61: The Holiday
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Liyu Science & Technology was named after her mother, Huang Liyu, because when thepany was established, she had invested 5 million yuan in thepany, thereby owning 90% of the total assets of thepany. The remaining 10 % was invested by her father Shangguan Zheng. Thepany was established at the proposal of Shangguan Zheng, but because he held the post of a government officer,he wasnt permitted to start a private business. However, he was a visionary and realised that starting a private enterprise would bring major financial gains. So he encouraged his wife, Huang Liyu,to start apany instead of him.
At that time, Huang Liyu was pregnant and the foetus wasnt in a proper position. So her entire focus was on taking care of her health and that of the baby. However, when she realised Shangguan Zheng so eager to start apany, she didnt hesitate even for a moment. She agreed to invest the entire inheritance that her parents had left to her. A stately sum of 5 million yuan. Both parents then requested Shangguan Xing, Shangguan Zhengs brother, who had just graduated from university, to manage the daily affairs of thepany.
Shangguan Xing agreed instantly, considering the fact that this huge opportunity had just fallen into hisp, without any mary investment from his side. He was in charge of administration and development.
Shangguan Ning had always thought that her mother was very naive to have lent out such a huge amount of money without much consideration for her own self. Yearster, Shangguan Ning realised that she had been equally silly, to have devoted herself to Xie Zhuojun, with all her heart.
Men always growcent when they realise that they have a womans full devotion.
Shangguan Zheng was like this, so was Xie Zhuojun.
Shangguan Ning was really hurt at the sight of the words Liyu Science & Technology in the newspaper.
She forced herself to read the entire report. It was only then that she understood that Liyu Science & Technology had entered the cell-phone market.
Originally, Liyu Science & Technology was only devoted to the development of other electronic devices. Thepany manufactured world ss Fridges, washing machines and air-conditioners.Their products were top ss and they had an excellent sales record. It was one of the most reputed enterprises in A City.
And now it had started to manufacture cell-phones.
Shangguan Nings instinct told her that Liyu Science & Technology wouldnt achieve much sess in the cell phone market. She had a deep understanding of thispany and the way it worked. She knew that the technological team was trained and developed by Shangguan Xing and they were skilled at manufacturing home electronics rather than cell-phones. The cell phone market was another ball game altogether. Competition was also quite fierce these days, so theyd better watch out.
While she was lost in thought and deep contemtion, Jing Yichen had already finished making breakfast and called out to her toe and enjoy it with him.
Shangguan Ning put down the newspaper, trying to forget what she had just read, so that she would remain unaffected by these things.
The food Jing Yichen had made was delicious, as usual.Shangguan Ning enjoyed it and ate more than her share of it. She felt that she had gained quite a lot of weight because of the tasty and nutritious food that she had been eatingtely.
Having finished their meal, they packed and headed towards the airport.
Jing Yichen had promised Shangguan Ning that they would take a trip together, during the holidays.
They had both lived abroad for several years, so they were both quite familiar with foreign countries. They had almost never visited any domestic destinations, so they decided to visit N City, which had pleasant weather.
N City was a coastal city which had a subtropical climate. It was a famous tourist destination. Currently, it was winter in the North whilst in N City it was warm and pleasant, thats why they had chosen to visit it for a holiday.
They had just stepped off the ne, when they were surrounded by staff to escort them. Since Jing Yichen was so renowned, several people greeted him courteously and eyed Shangguan Ning in astonishment.
Jing Yichen didnt like to be followed around. So he politely asked everyone else to leave, except for his designated driver, who would drive them to the hotel.
The driver wasnt a man of many words. Instead, he nodded politely at Shangguan Ning and then drove them to their ce of stay, a fancy five-star hotel, in an streched Lincoln Limousine.
When they entered the hotel, Shangguan Ning realised that their driver was actually the General Manager of the hotel. He had their luggage collected and ensured that the guests had a fast and smooth check in.
Soon they entered a luxurious presidential suite with a breathtaking sea view.It was indeed a feast for the eyes.
Shangguan Ning took a breath of fresh air as she looked at the sea water, the golden sand on the beach and the palm trees. All this made her really happy.
Jing Yichen wrapped her waist in his arms, while he stood behind her and whispered in her ears. You like it here?
Shangguan Ning nodded and said with content, Yes!
Then we cane here often, said Jing Yichen, who loved pampering her.
They took a siesta, changed and went to the beach.
Shangguan Ning wore a red-and-white polka-dot swimming suit which was chosen by Jing Yichen. It wasnt revealing but showed off her perfect figure.
Her jade-white skin looked even more attractive, in contrast with the red swimsuit.
Seeing her long legs, slender waist and her well endowed bosom, Jing Yichen was infinitely tempted.
He regretted having bought her this swimming suit. Although the swimsuit didnt expose much, yet he was unable to tolerate other men stare at his lovely wife, with longing.
Shangguan Ning thought that Jing Yichen had good taste. She liked this swimsuit a lot. It consisted of a short sling top with a short skirt bottom. Compared to the bikinis that everyone wore at the beach, she was already conventionally dressed.
Even though all the men there were eyeing her, all she was aware of was a pair of eyes that belonged to Jing Yichen. They were fixated on her all the time, and she couldnt help blushing.
She quickly surveyed herself and asked hesitantly, Anything... wrong?
Anything wrong? It was driving him totally crazy!
He was the only one who was allowed to appreciate her beauty. How could he allow those hungry wolves around them to stare at her, at their will?
Jing Yichen took a deep breath and said lightly, No, all is well. But youd better change into another set of clothes. Its cold and you wouldnt want to fall ill by being so scantily dressed.
Shangguan Ning nced at him in confusion.
What was he saying? It was very hot there. Everyone was dressed this way.
She didnt think too much about what he said. Instead, she ran to a small stand, bought two coconuts and passed one to Jing Yichen, to sip on.
Jing Yichen took it smilingly and paid for it.
They walked at the beach, hand in hand,until they came to a deserted patch. He said mysteriously, Wait here, dont go anywhere. I will be back soon.
Shangguan Ning didnt know what he was going to do, but she dare not ask. Instead, she just nodded smilingly.
After Jing Yichen left, sheid down on a deck chair, finished her own coconut and then intended to finish Jing Yichens, as well.
It was not very crowded, where she was, making her feel even better. She enjoyed being away from the limelight.
But this feeling didntst too long, as she soon saw a group of people walking towards her.
Chapter 62 - A Slap in the Face
Chapter 62: A p in the Face
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning didnt feel like meeting with anyone, so she decided to get up and leave. Soon, she could tell who these visitors were. It was none other than Shangguan Rouxue, her sister. Shangguan Ning intended to leave but then thought to herself, that there was no need for her to hide. It was they who had made mistakes, and it should be they who should be embarrassed of making eye contact with her!
Shangguan Rouxue spotted her first and called out in surprise and joy, Sister. Then she came running to her.
Sister, what are you doing here?
The sweet face, the gentle voice as well as the expression of surprise and joy, showed no sign of deception.
However, the moment she stretched out her perfect pair of jade-like hands, she showed her true colours.
Within one moment, Shangguan Rouxue scratched Shangguan Nings arms with her finger nails. Shangguan Ning winced in pain and pushing Shangguan Rouxue away from herself, she asked angrily, What are you doing, Shangguan Rouxue?
Shangguan Rouxues slender body fell a distance away as she had been pushed away with such force. Her hair which had been beautifully done up, now fell over her face in an unkempt manner. She just continued to lie on the beach in a feeble manner.
Xie Zhuojun who was only at a slight distance, bellowed. Xue!
Then he dashed to her side, helped her stand up. Holding her in his arms, he asked with concern, Xue, are you alright? Is everything fine?
Shangguan Rouxues entire face went pale. She held her knees and whispered, as if speaking with a lot of effort, Zhuojun, it hurts... so much!
Xie Zhuojun moved her hand and saw that she had scraped her knees. There were traces of blood all over her hands, which were now bruised.
He was livid. So much so that the veins on his forehead,started to throb. He snapped, Are you a maniac, Shangguan Ning?! How can you hurt your own sister?
Shangguan Ning no longer felt the pain of the wound on her arms.That was because her deep dislike for Xie Zhuojun bothered her even more .
Someone once said that the deeper your love, the deeper your hatred would be.
Shangguan Ning didnt agree with this. Sometimes hatred continued to umte even when love was long gone.
Just like now, when she was facing Xie Zhuojun. She was certain that she had no feelings for him whatsoever. However, she started to hate him even more.
She hated him for humiliating her and choosing to believe everyone else. She hated him for taking advantage of her, when she was naive, in the past.
Even if he didnt have any love or affection towards her, he shouldve at least felt some gratitude. After all, she was the one who saved his life, took care of him and helped him. But he felt none of all this. Instead he had continued to hurt her constantly by being someone elses shoulder to cry on.
Shangguan Ning hated herself too. Why had she saved his life ? Why had she nurtured him back to health? Was it so that he could humiliate her and hurt her today ?
She was disgusted with herself, but it was not her fault.
Therefore, she went up to Xie Zhuojun ,who was still holding Shangguan Rouxue in his arms. Without a moments hesitation, she pped him right in the face, as hard as she could, while all he could do was continue to stare at her in astonishment.
Although her palm hurt, Shangguan Ning felt much better.
Shangguan Rouxue had never expected that Shangguan Ning,who was usually of a gentle temperament, would p someone. And that too, none other than Xie Zhuojun. The man that she had never been able to forget.
She let out a heart-breaking cry, Zhuojun! and started to cry.
Everyone would be moved by her gentle and pitiful appearance, and her tears would melt mountains.
Xie Zhuojun wiped away her tears andforted her. He then spoke in a spiteful tone, It is okay. Dont cry. This is what I owed her! From this day on, we owe her nothing!
The wounds in Shangguan Nings heart had bepletely numb. She sneered at hearing these words, One p on the face for a lifetime of deceit? Xie Zhuojun, your life must have been really worthless!
Shangguan Ning! Stop your sarcastic remarks! Do as you wish with me, but dont you dare touch Xue in future, otherwise I will forget that you are Xues sister and that there was love between us in the past!C he said furiously. No one dared toy a hand on him, even when he was a child. No one dared to p him, the heir of Family Xie!
But Shangguan Ning did!
How dare she...
Shangguan Ning wasnt like this before. She had totally changed!
But maybe it was like what he had said C He owed that much to her. So maybe he shouldnt be upset about this incident.
In all honesty,it had been he who had betrayed Shangguan Ning. All she had done to him,was to p him in the face. If that p could drive away her bitterness, then he would dly ept it.
Xie Zhuojun looked up at Shangguan Ning standing in front of him. He suddenly realized that this young girl, who hadnt ever worn makeup and who didnt know how to dress well, had now be a tall, slender beauty.
The red-white swimming suit outlined the wonderful shape of her body. Her wless skin and face looked fresh and beautiful without any makeup. Her sensuous breasts, her thin waist, her long legs C everything about her was so eye-catching.
He liked girls with petite body frames and delicate features.These kind of women were so pretty. They brought out a strong desire, in a man, to want to protect and take care of them. Shangguan Rouxue was one such woman.
Shangguan Ning was 168 cm in height, a rtively tall girl . Besides, she didnt know how to dress like ady. In Xie Zhuojuns eyes, there was nothing effeminate about a woman who couldnt dress well.
But he was taken aback at the sight of Shangguan Nings transformation.
She stood there with her chin up, lofty and arrogant, her body in an indescribable perfect proportion. She looked so good that people around her couldnt help noticing her, excitedly.
Xie Zhuojun felt that there was a huge difference between the woman in his memory and the woman who stood in front of him.
Shangguan Ning didnt notice Xie Zhuojuns gaze. She would never have expected that Xie Zhuojun would have stared at another womans legs while his beloved was in his arms.
She was very hurt by his words. What did he mean when he said COtherwise Ill forget that we ever had love between us in the past.
Since when had he ever considered their past love?
She said sharply, I dont need your past love or your consideration. As long as you dont behave crazily, I would be thankful to God. I came to this beach before you, so please leave and take your woman with you!
Both Xie Zhuojun and Shangguan Rouxue couldnt help but stare in amazement. Since when did Shangguan Ning start standing up for herself?
Since when did she be so entitled that she insisted that they leave the beach!
In the meanwhile, Shangguan Rouxue noticed a change in Xie Zhuojuns outlook towards Ning.She didnt care about why Shangguan Ning was behaving so unlike herself today. The only person she cared about, was Xie Zhuojun.
She shivered in Xie Zhuojuns arms and let out a soft cry. It hurts so much...
Xie Zhuojun was immediately distracted. He said Hang on, Xue! I will take you for a check up!
He carried Shangguan Rouxue in his arms, and was about to leave when Yang Wenshu came running towards them and stopped them.
Her eyes welled up at the sight of blood on her daughters knees. With tears trickling down her face, she asked her daughter,What happened, Xue? How did you hurt yourself ?

As she was talking, Shangguan Zheng, along with Xie Zhuojuns parents, followed soon after.
Everyone was shocked at the sight of Shangguan Rouxues knees. They all looked at Shangguan Ning, suspiciously.
Shangguan Ning was really hurt, yet she refused to show a touch of emotion on her face.
As was often the case C no one had seen Shangguan Rouxues excellent performance. They had all automaticallybelled Shangguan Ning as the criminal.
It was obvious that Shangguan Rouxue had put on many such performances, on numerous prior asions. These people were now conditioned into believing her nonsense.
Wang Lu, namely Xie Zhuojuns mother, instantly spotted a clear palmprint on her sons cheek. She couldnt help but shout, Who pped you, Zhuojun?
Xie Zhuojun was silent, but everyone instantly turned their eyes from Xie Zhuojuns cheek to Shangguan Nings face, once more.
There was no doubt that she had done it. Shangguan Rouxue would never p him, because she was deeply in love with him.
Wang Lus heart ached. She was about to say something when her son shook his head, indicating that she should not say anything.
She wanted to scold Shangguan Ning, but she gave up seeing that Shangguan Zheng was standing right beside her .
Shangguan Zheng was livid, seeing his younger daughters state of distress. To add to that, his wifes tears.
What happened? How did your sister get hurt? She was fine a minute ago!
Shangguan Ning replied in a cold and indifferent tone, You must have been mistaken, Deputy-Mayor Shangguan. My mothers name is Huang Liyu. She has only one daughter, namely me. I dont have any younger sister!
As she said this, the tension in the air became palpable. No one uttered a word.
Shangguan Zhengs face changed, after his daughter touched a raw nerve. That too, in the presence of Family Xie.
Shangguan Rouxue tried to rescue Shangguan Ning from the siege. Daddy, it has nothing to do with Sister. I ran so fast that I tripped...
Xie Zhuojun interrupted her unhappily, Dont cover for her, Xue! I saw it with my own eyes! It was she who pushed you off. Things will worsen in the future, if you keep speaking in her defence!
Yang Wenshu cried even louder, hearing these words.
Shangguan Zhengs expression got even colder.
Even Parents Xie showed their displeasure and looked at Shangguan Ning with disgust. Shangguan Rouxue was already their daughter-inw in their hearts, and they were very unhappy to see her being bullied by Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning was surrounded by six people, each of whom wore an expression of displeasure and anger. No one intended to ask Shangguan Ning what on earth had happened.
Shangguan Ning stared at them coldly. She was no match for the six people in front of her.
That was what Jing Yichen saw when he returned.
He didnt hear or see what happened before. But he had heard what Shangguan Rouxue and Xie Zhuojun had said.
He stepped forward and put himself protectively in front of Shangguan Ning.
He said Six people bullying a girl? That really throws light on the chain of events!
Seeing Jing Yichen holding Shangguan Nings arm, Xie Zhuojun asked instantly, Who are you?
Jing Yichen didnt even look at him and said just two words to him- Get away!
His aristocratic air, his noble charisma, and his powerful persona made Xie Zhuojun choke on words.
No one had a doubt that Jing Yichen was a man of his word. He really did seem like someone powerful and capable.
Shangguan Rouxue was instantly reminded of the handsome silhouette that she saw at the gate of the supermarket, a few days ago.
She was almost certain that he was the same person.
Except for one thing. She remembered clearly that the man she saw at the supermarket drove a luxurious sports car. The Aston Martin. It was worth tens of millions of yuan and that too a limited version. There were only two such cars avable in the entire world.
I will let you off, today. If you dare to bully her one more time, you will definitely not be capable of handling the consequences! Jing Yichen said in a tone full of fury.
He would not have let go of the matter even today,had it not been for the presence of Shangguan Nings family members.
But if it happened one more time, he would not be able to hold hisposure, whoever it may be!
Xie Zhuojuns father Xie Dongfeng used to be with the military. He could clearly feel the sense of foreboding in Jing Yichens tone. Judging from the vibe that Jing Yichen gave out, he was also able to tell that many people had lost their lives at his hands.
Jing Yichen was not just threatening them with empty words.
Xie Dongfeng frowned at Shangguan Ning. When had she got to know a man so cruel and ruthless? Well, it had been they who betrayed Shangguan Ning back then. She couldnt be their daughter-inw but there was no need to corner her all the time.
He looked at Jing Yichen and said. Lets get Xue bandaged up first. She has gotten pale from the pain.
Before they left, Shangguan Zheng looked at Jing Yichen with displeasure.
Jing Yichen didnt turn around to sweep Shangguan Ning into his arms, until the group left.
Remember to call me if someone else bullies you next time.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but hug Jing Yichen back, as she thought of him standing up for her. He was so strong. A stream of warm feelings gushed into her broken, cold heart.
Jing Yichen nted a soft kiss on her forehead before putting her down. Then he covered Shangguan Nings body with a huge towel and nodded in satisfaction.
Only now did Shangguan Ning understand the reason for his weird behaviour when they got the beach, He thought that her being scantily dressed, attracted unwanted male attention. She didnt know whether tough or to cry at this.
Jing Yichen nted a kiss on her plump, red lips. He then got down on one knee right there at the beach, and pulled out a shiny diamond ring.
He then asked her gently, Ning, will you marry me?
Shangguan Ning was so pleasantly surprised that she covered her mouth in shock and stared at him in disbelief.
Howe he was asking her to marry him? They had been married for over a month.
He was making a mistake.
Shangguan Nings heartbeat came down to normal and she took over the ring, and said happily, I will!
As if on cue, fireworks broke out, at the seas horizon.The couple looked so splendid, against the afterglow.
Jing Yichen stood up, put the ring on Shangguan Nings slender ring finger,and said , We got married in a hurry, so I was thinking about redoing my proposal to you. I apologise for the dy, but it was because of the ring. It was to arrive from a foreign shore and didnt get here until only a little while ago.
Shangguan Ning choked with happiness and sobbed with joy. She couldnt get over sight of the fireworks, forming the word Love, up in the sky, not to forget, the beautiful, luxurious diamond ring on her finger.
She had never expected that a man as cold as Jing Yichen, could be so romantic sometimes.
She sniffed her nose hearing his proposal and said, Well, I have married you after all. Proposal or not, I am yours.

Jing Yichens heart went out to her, when he saw her behave in such a manner.
He flirtingly whispered in her ears, You belong to me, that much is true, but we are still to consummate our marriage. Should we rectify that bit, tonight?
Shangguan Ning was very embarrassed. She flushed instantly.
Jing Yichenughed, scooped her up in his arms and walked towards the hotel.
The beach was crowded. Onlookers had gathered to admire the firework disy that Jing Yichen had put up for Shangguan Ning .
In the hotel room, rose petals were strewn all over the floor. Amidst the rose petals were heart shaped candles, while A Midsummer Nights Dream by Mendelssohn echoed through the entire presidential suite.
Shangguan Ning was astonished as soon as she entered the room. She turned her head to look at Jing Yichen who had obviously arranged all of this, only to find him looking back at her sheepishly.
Well... These ideas arent mine. Ive only mimicked what so many others have already done before.. Im not sure if you like it.. Im not good at all this..
He had never known how to please a woman. There had never been any kind of romance in his dull life. All these gestures of love, hed only recently learnt about, from a book he had just read.
Shangguan Ning wasnt into all these over-the-top promations of love, either. She was swayed by his effort to put all of this together. She was aware of how all this was new to him as well.
Thank you! I like it very much! Its beautiful! She couldnt stop praising it all.
The petals and the candles made the room look very beautiful indeed. Every girl would dream of being spoilt like this.
Im d! Jing Yichen was back to his usual calm self. He picked up Shangguan Ning and took her to their bedroom. He gentlyid her on the bed and started to undress himself.
Shangguan Ning felt awkward and asked uneasily, What are you doing?
Jing Yichen looked at her and said, Im doing something that all married couples do. My wife, your husband is a normal man. I have reached the edge of my tolerance.. seeing you every day and not able to touch you at all.
Shangguan Ning flung a pillow at him, in jest. Jing Yichen caught it, put it aside and then took off his shirt. His upper body was muscr and his chest looked well chiselled.
He sat down at the edge of the bed and held Shangguan Nings hands in his own.
Shangguan Ning winced in pain.
Jing Yichen let go of her hands instantly and asked softly, What is it? Did I hurt you?
He looked at her arms and saw two red scratches. They were still raw and had obviously been recent. His expression turned cold instantly. In a tone full of repressed anger, he asked. Did they hurt you?
Shangguan Ning nodded and said, It is alright. Its just a small wound. And I have paid it back already. I wounded the person who did this to me, and I even pped her boyfriend. It felt really good!
She said all this so casually, but Jing Yichen knew there was more to this.
He recollected the scene of that evening. How there were six people surrounding her and speaking to her so rudely. It wasnt a pleasant sight.
He kissed the wound on her arms, got off the bed and put on some clothes. Then he called house-keeping and requested for a first aid kit.
The service of the hotel was unusually fast. Only a few minutes after Jing Yichen hung up the phone, the doorbell rang.
He opened the first aid kit, took out the gauze, some cotton and an antiseptic. He started to bandage Shangguan Nings wounds in a proficient manner.
The wounds werent deep and Shangguan Ning felt much better already.
It is alright, it will heal in a couple of days. No need to bind it up.
Dont move, be good.
Sure enough, Shangguan Ning didnt move any more. She was at his mercy and if he wanted to bandage her wound, then there was no stopping him.
She asked after a while, Have you done this before?
He had several wounds and scars on his body. He had preferred wearing long-sleeve shirts, all the time when they were in A City, so that Shangguan Ning wouldnt be able to spot them. Most times when he was home and changing, she was too shy to look at him.
Today, he wore a short-sleeve T-shirt and several conspicuous scars were clearly visible on his arms.
It wasnt difficult to tell that he had been hurt numerous times seeing all this and the fact that he was able to bandage her wounds so deftly.
How could a wealthy man, the inheritor of the business empire Jingsheng Enterprise, have been wounded so many times?
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but touch his arm. She moved her fingers gently over a fierce looking wound.
Jing Yichens hands, which were busy with the bandage, froze momentarily. He quickly regained hisposure and made a knot of gauzes, calmly.
He felt wonderful at her touch.
Does it scare you?C he asked.
Shangguan Ning shook her head in the negative and replied, No, I am not scared. I just think that it might have hurt... a lot.
Jing Yichen smiled. He put the first aid kit aside. Then he pulled Shangguan Ning into his arms and whispered, Tonight, I will let things be, but only because youre injured. You need topensate me many more times, after you have recovered.
Shangguan Nings cheeks were burning, but her heart was relieved.
Jing Yichen was slightly disappointed hearing her sigh of relief. He lifted her chin and kissed her moist lips.
It wasnt a gentle kiss. It was as if he were punishing her. His mouth invaded hers and his tongue chased hers. Demandingly.. Unapologetically..
Jing Yichen identally touched Shangguan Nings newly-bound wound and heard her let out a painful moan. Only then did he force himself to stop.
Jing Yichen said hoarsely, Dont move, baby. Please be in my arms, just for a moment...
He hugged her and she could smell the scent off his body. Shangguan Ning felt secure andfortable and fell asleep almost instantly.
When they both awoke the next morning, they were still entwined in each others arms.
Her body felt sore. She thought to herself, Why am I feeling so lethargic. My body feels sore. It hurts...
My love, whats wrong?C she heard Jing Yichen ask.

Shangguan Ning shook her head and said in a panic. Nothing!
Jing Yichen sat up, and held her from behind. He ced his chin in the crook of her neck and said , My love, I did nothingst night and you still feel lethargic?
Shangguan Nings face flushed instantly, yet she felt drained of all energy.
She didnt expect that Jing Yichen, who otherwise seemed so cold and indifferent, would actually be so mischievous and flirty. She didnt expect him to talk to her with words that had so many sexual connotations. So much so that she was almost always blushing.
Jing Yichen massaged her back with his hands, suggestively, but she quickly manoeuvred them and rushed to the bathroom.
Jing Yichen felt refreshed when he saw her blush.
He got off the bed, and started to ramble through a full wardrobe of clothes, custom made for Shangguan Ning, at his order. He finally chose a long, sling, Bohemian styled dress.
Hmm, this dress will do!
This style would look really good on Shangguan Ning, who was tall and slender. Most importantly, this dress was long enough to cover her beautiful legs,that men were drooling over.
Shangguan Ning changed into the dress Jing Yichen picked for her.
She too, was quite fond of this style. For one thing, it helped her tall and slender body-shape stand out, and for another, she neednt worry about the dress being lifted up by the wind.
She felt that Jing Yichen had good taste. She stood in front of the mirror, spun around holding up the hem of the dress and asked with her head tilted. Do I look pretty?
Jing Yichen nodded. He was amazed at what he saw but all he could manage to mumble was, Yes.
Shangguan Ning was unconvinced. She pursed her lips and said, Humph... so untruthful.
Jing Yichen couldnt help butugh, seeing her behave so endearingly. You little fool! No matter what you wear.. In my eyes, you will always be the most beautiful woman in the world.
He then led Shangguan Ning downstairs, for breakfast.
As soon as they entered the quiet, luxurious lobby, they heard some high pitched voices.
Shangguan Ning turned around to look and saw Shangguan Rouxue along with the rest of her family.
Jing Yichen could sense Shangguan Nings body freeze in reaction, so he continued to hold her hand.
Shangguan Ning smiled stiffly and then followed him to the dining hall.
There were few people in the dining hall, so they found a table by the window. They ced their order. Jing Yichen asked, Dont want to see them?
Shangguan Ning looked up, and her expression turned calm. She said quietly, Its okay. I am with you.
Jing Yichen smiled. He asked, Do you know why they were arguing at the front desk, this early in the morning?
Shangguan Ning looked a tad confused. She had no idea why the group behaved that way. That wasnt their usual style, because those six people were otherwise, quite pretentious. They would never do anything that would impact their reputation negatively. They really cared about what people thought of them.
This hotel belongs to Jingsheng Enterprise. Jing Yichen replied, without a change of expression.
So? she asked nonchnt tone. Shangguan Ning had no idea that this five-star hotel belonged to Jingsheng, yet when she thought of the special treatment they received, everyday since their day of arrival, it became obvious.
So, I, as the President, have the power to decide who is allowed to stay here and who must leave!
Shangguan Ning was startled. Although Jing Yichen looked noble right now, she knew that he had never behaved as arrogant and conceited ever, as he did currently. She wasnt used to this behaviour of his and found it to be quite pleasing.
Was she crazy?
However, she was just pleased that she didnt need to see them in the hotel or by the beach every day. Every time she saw them, her quiet and stable life would be shaken ruthlessly. She hoped never to meet these people ever again, as long as she lived.
Shangguan Nings eyes twinkled. She stared at Jing Yichen and said in admiration, Oh, turns out that I have married a powerful man.
Her expression and words pleased Jing Yichen no end. He couldnt stop smiling. He leaned his handsome face forward, to the side of Shangguan Nings lips. Then, will you reward your powerful husband with something?
Seeing his handsome face so close to hers, Shangguan Ning bit his lips and nted a quick kiss on his face.
She quickly scanned the room to see if anyone had caught them in the act, and let out a sigh of relief seeing that no one had noticed her actions.
He was still thinking about the softness and fragrance of her lips. He tried to control himself so as not to tease her any more. He started with breakfast as soon as the waitress brought it to him.
In the meanwhile, in the hotel lobby, the Lobby Manager was exining to this group of six people, who were apparently quite furious. I am so sorry, but the rooms you have booked, have a water leakage problem, and we are in the process of rectifying it right now. So you cant stay there on those particr days. We will arrange for a refund of the room fees and arrange for apensation, ording to the terms and conditions.
The lobby manager was a beautiful and elegantdy. She was well dressed and extremely professional. She spoke courteously, but there were no two ways around the fact that they were not allowed to live in the hotel any more.
Yang Wenshu got angry and anxious. She was hardly able to stay calm and elegant.
Everything was fine a minute ago. What do you mean by saying that there is a water leakage problem now? Is that what a five-star hotel is like? Also, isnt it very strange that only our three rooms have water leakage problem, and not the rest of the rooms?
It had taken her ages to persuade Shangguan Zheng toe for a holiday during the Chinese New Year. She felt bullied by the hotel authorities, into leaving the hotel for no apparent reason.
The rest of the group were also aware that the hotel was driving them out on purpose. Xie Dongfeng, who was Xie Zhuojuns father, frowned and said to the Manager unhappily, Since those rooms have water leakage problem, then get us rooms that dont have any such issues.
The Manager was still smiling and said in a calm voice, Im sorry but our hotel is fully sold out. There are no vacant rooms. Please check into other hotels. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
She sounded very hospitable, and still, there was a hint of impatience in her eyes.
These people had been arguing with her, all morning. She had been so busy handling them that she didnt even have the time to drink water. With all the ruckus that they created, they had offended the senior management of the hotel. She really had the intention of kicking them out personally.
Shangguan Zheng, who had been used to giving orders in A City, was extremely furious with the hotel authorities.
What kind of Manager are you? We need toin to your General Manager. Please call for him, immediately!
Chapter 66 - Out of Hotels
Chapter 66: Out of Hotels
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Wang Lu, Xie Zhuojuns mother, who had never ever been meted out this kind of treatment, refused to leave the matter at that.
She said in a rtively high pitched voice, Yes, we want toin! It is your responsibility for not having done the work earlier, yet you are driving us out. We wouldnt let this matter go.
It seemed like there was no way that they would leave.
This was the only five-star hotel that was ideally located in N City. It was situated by the beautiful seaside, and hadfortable sunbathing facilities as well. The other hotels were located very far away from this part of the city.
The Front Office Manager wasnt a woman who could be easily unnerved. She had been working at this hotel for five years and had met all kinds of people. She was alright with them making aint. It would also give her seniors an idea of what trouble the front office staff had been through, the entire morning. Maybe the front office manager may get awarded for meritorious service. She didnt know who in the hierarchy had been offended by this group of six people. She assumed that whoever it was, must be someone very powerful, to have the power to have these guests thrown out. She thought to herself, that if she were able to make the right impression on someone this powerful, then her promotion was assured.
She maintained her professional attitude and said calmly, You are wee to make theints. Our management system is very transparent. However, if you continue to create amotion in our lobby and disturb other guests, then I wouldnt be so courteous anymore!
Having said these words, she beckoned twelve security guards, dressed in ck shirts and said nonchntly, These people are making a fuss here, please show them the way out.
Having said these words, she walked away, strutting in her high heels.
When she ran into other guests in the hotel, she exined with a smile We are sorry to have caused you any inconvenience on ount of this group. Dont worry, everything is under control now. Wish you all a happy stay here.
Everyone red mockingly at this lot of six people.
The twelve security guards were not as courteous as the Lobby Manager. Two security guards grabbed hold of each one of them and started to drag them out of the hotel premises.
Xie Zhuojun was fuming. He was being dragged by two security guards and everyone else was staring at them. He managed to get out of their strong hold and snapped, I can walk by myself. No need to drag me.
All six of them were distressed at being treated so disrespectfully.
Shangguan Rouxues face looked really pale. Her knees still hurt and she continued to lean on Xie Zhuojuns arm. She couldnt help but wonder if this was all somehow connected to the handsome man that they had run into the day before.
Everyone else had met him for the first time, but she had definitely seen him before.
Thest time around, she remembered seeing him cushion Shangguan Nings head protectively, as she had gotten into his car.The luxurious sports car was something shed never forget.
Xie Zhuojun had properties worth more than 100 million yuan, but he was reluctant to buy an Aston Martin. Instead, he was still driving the Land Rover which was worth around one million.
The man beside Shangguan Ning was apparently much more capable and powerful than Xie Zhuojun, especially since he was able to afford an Aston Martin.
Had they been driven out because of him... because they had offended Shangguan Ning?
Shangguan Rouxue shook her head and discarded the ridiculous idea from her brain.
She wasnt sure if the man was in any way connected to the resort, but she was sure that Shangguan Ning wasnt so charming that she would be capable of impressing such a person. She couldnt even imagine a person of this calibre bending backwards to fulfill Shangguan Nings whims and fancies.
Shangguan Ning had been incapable of handling a softie like Xie Zhuojun, all those years ago. How would she be able to make a man that powerful to obey her?
Yang Wenshu didnt want to spoil their festive spirit.
So she said cheerfully, It is Chinese New Year! Lets not allow the hotel to ruin our mood. Lets just find another hotel and settle down. We can look into this matterter.
She went up and gently held Shangguan Zhengs arms and looked at him with expectant eyes.
Shangguan Zheng had no intention of traveling any further. He had never been interested in any sight-seeing anyway. Besides,he was a Deputy-Mayor in a government office.Taking so many days off for a holiday was a very sensitive matter.
He was due for re-election soon. Even if he had taken his family on his own expense,petitors would assume that he had utilised office funds for personal purposes.
He decided that he had had enough of travelling around and without bothering about Yang Wenshus expectation, he said. No more travelling. Lets go back home to A City!
It would also be good for him to go and catch up with a few friends who were in powerful offices. That would better his chances of re-election.
Shangguan Ning, of course, had no idea of the quantum of trouble that had been caused to her step sister and her family. She finished breakfast and was in a good mood. She went sunbathing on the beach, hand in hand, with Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen was lying on the deck chair with a pair of sunsses on him, when his cell phone vibrated. It was a text message from the General Manager of the hotel CPresident Sir, they have left.
The content was brief but it made Jing Yichen smile.
Managing people like these, was a cakewalk for him.
Oh well, should he start to think about getting involved with air business, so that these people would not even have any nes to take on their next trip?
Shangguan Ning loved spending time soaking up the warm sun. She was not tired or lethargic anymore. She jovially said to Jing Yichen sitting next to her, It is such a nice ce. Feels like we are on our honeymoon, doesnt it?
Jing Yichen wrapped her hands in his and said in a matter-of-fact tone, No, it cant be counted as our honeymoon. When we are done with our wedding, I will take you for a world tour. That would be aptly counted as our honeymoon.
Shangguan Ning had dreams of travelling the world with the man she loved. Every girl does. She hadnt expected that the man would be Jing Yichen,
She smiled happily and said casually, Weddings are just an excuse..a formality..it doesnt matter if there isnt any. But I do want a trip around the world.
Jing Yichens handsome face mouthed the words, Dont worry, you will have both.
...
In the meanwhile,Shangguan Zheng patiently waited to board his flight, in the waiting lounge of the N City airport.
The rest of his family werent willing to return to A City just yet. Instead, they wanted to spend several more days in this warm, splendid city.
Although he wasnt so pleased that his wife wasnting home with him, he gave in to her demands and permitted her to stay back and carry on with her holiday.
There was an hour to go before the flight took off. Shangguan Zheng was flipping pages of that days local newspaper.
The front page of the newspaper had arge article praising the Sky & Cloud Hotel.
Sky & Cloud Hotel was the same luxurious five-star property from which they had been driven out this morning. Since he was no longer as upset about the morning, he calmly continued to read the entire article.
Whilst reading it, one thing caught his attention C Sky & Cloud Hotel belonged to Jingsheng Enterprise. It was a subsidy of this powerful business entity.
Chapter 67 - They had Offended Someone
Chapter 67: They had Offended Someone
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Zheng folded the newspaper and thought of the only time that he had had the opportunity to meet Jing Zhongxiu, the President of Jingsheng Enterprise.
He was experienced, calm, powerful and capable. In fact he did not seem to have any obvious weaknesses. Jing Zhongxus extraordinary capability could be easily seen when one saw the scale to which Jingsheng Enterprise had developed, under his expertise.
He had heard that Jing Zhongxius son took over the mantle of President of Jingsheng Enterprise recently, and within a few weeks of joining office, he sessfully managed to vanquish powerful Family Jis Enterprise by buying out Star Media. That too at a price much lower than the market rate.
There were also talks that the new President was nning to invest some capital into Family Mus Hospital, which was a prestigious charitable hospital in A City. After the investment, Jingsheng Enterprise would hold 30 % shares of Family Mus Hospital.
Family Yang C a business enterprise, owned by Yang Wenshus family was also keen on investing into Family Mus Hospital. However, Jinsheng Enterprise always managed to be a step ahead. Family Yangs Enterprise had lost out on the opportunity of making this prudent investment, on more than one asion, thanks to Jinsheng Enterprises.
Shangguan Zheng wondered how he could fix up a meeting with the new President of Jingsheng Enterprise, and convince him to fund his re-election campaign. Just then, his wife, daughter and Family Xie entered the waiting lounge with an unhappy expression on their faces.
What happened? Shangguan Zheng asked, slightly confused.
No one knew how to answer the question, when Shangguan Rouxue bit her lip and replied, Daddy, we were not allowed to check-in to any hotel here. We dont know why. You are the most able of all of us, and so well connected to people in positions of power. Would you please look it into this matter?
What? Shangguan Zheng no longer wore a rxed expression.
That was impossible.
Who would have had such power to be able to ensure that no hotels in the entire N City would want to take them in? Who wouldve had hated them with such bitterness so as to cause them such inconvenience.
Shangguan Zheng realized instantly that they had offended someone really powerful. He could deduce this from the experience of being in the political circle for so long.
He did not want to make a scene at the airport and this was definitely not a ce to have a discussion. His expression turned bitter and he said, Lets talk about it at home. Lets go get all the tickets in order first.
By now they had alle to the same realization as Shangguan Zheng, that they had ruffled the feathers of someone in power. It wasnt a mere coincidence that they had been turned down by all the hotels in the city. They had wanted to continue with their vacation but now they had no choice but to take the flight back home. They got to the ticket counter and waited for their turn, in silence and frustration.
Xie Zhuojun was dumbstruck by the events of the day. Every hotel or resort they had tried to book, turned them away in a few minutes. How could it be possible that every hotel in the city was fully booked. In the midst of all this confusion, the increasingly beautiful face of Shangguan Nings shed across his mind. Could it have been her?
Wasnt it strange C they had been able to check into the resort the day before, but after the showdown with her, all this happened? All the hotels suddenly turned them down.
No No.. he was being unrealistic!
Shangguan Ning didnt have that much power, and even if she did, she couldnt have been so heartless. Although she hated him for abandoning her, yet Xie Zhuojun felt that she wouldnt be so cruel as to embarrass him to this extent.
During their courtship, she would always put him first, even before herself.
Something didnt feel right about the evening he met her. He felt ufortable even at the thought of the strange man she was with that day. He didnt seem right. He hoped that Shangguan Ning would have the sense to leave such a cold and dangerous authoritarian.
What a sad way to end a holiday!
Shangguan Ning was oblivious to their state of penury. She and Jing Yichen spent an entire week in N City. They were tanned and happy when they finally returned to A City .
Both of them resumed work on the eighth day of the New Year. Shangguan Ning was up very early and started to get ready for work.
Jing Yichen smiled, as he pinched her shapely nose. You seem more diligent than your President!
Shangguan Ning rolled her eyes at him. You are a big President. I am only small fish. Just an Assistant. Who would pay me if I dont work diligently? I will have to work even harder in future. So it would be nice, Mr.President, if you allow your staff to give their best to work.
Her rtionship with Jing Yichen had progressed rapidly after spending a week with him in N City. The invisible walls between them seemed to have vanished. She would now hold hands with him, out of her own ord or lean against his shoulder ever so often. Even their conversations and behaviours were easy and free-flowing. Theirfort was as if they had known each other for ages.
However, they still managed to keep their rtionship fresh and their chemistry, crackling. Shangguan Ning loved it.
Are you trying to rece me by working so hard? Dont be so ambitious!
Shangguan Ning smirked. Hmmph! The soldiers who dont want to be a general, are not good soldiers!
Jing Yichen liked it when Shangguan Ning was sort of capricious. He loved to spoil her and this kind of behaviour made her even more endearing to him.
He smiled lightly, lifted her exquisite chin and nted a kiss upon her fresh and lustful lips. He spun his tongue and tangled it with hers, absorbing the scent that belonged to her.
He soon let go of her lips and turned his attention to her earlobes. Shangguan Ning was still breathless. She was really sensitive to his touch.
His warm hands brought a sense of numbness to Shangguan Ning like an electric current, draining the strength out of her bodypletely.
Dont... time to work... She spilled out the disjointed words with all her strength, only to realize that this husky voice didnt sound like her at all.
Jing Yichen removed his teeth and asked in a low voice, Baby, has it... finished?
Shangguan Ning knew what he meant, so she instantly felt embarrassed and furious. She refused to say anything and clenched her teeth.
She had got her period when they were in N City. That was why Jing Yichens evil n didnt work out back then, and now he started to ask her anxiously.
Jing Yichen noticed that she was keeping her mouth closed yet flushing.
He evilly massaged her sensitive part with his long fingers so that she couldnt help but let out a low cry.
Is it finished? He asked persistently, refusing to stop massaging.
Shangguan Ning never expected that this man could be so shameless. She couldnt stand his flirty behavior and answered in a very light voice, Hmm.
Her voice was so low as the buzzing of a mosquito, yet Jing Yichen caught it clearly.
He kissed her plump, red lips with satisfaction, adjusted her shirt that had gotten messy and told her in a low voice, Be good, and wait for me tonight.

Chapter 68: She Had Changed

The staff of Jingsheng Enterprise hade to admire their new President. He was extremely capable and resolved several issues within thepany and outside smoothly. He ensured that all staff received a sry hike. Not to mention the fact that he was easy on the eyes, being so handsome.
However, the President was a mysterious man whose routine was never revealed. Management level staff almost never had a chance to meet their idol. The Presidents office had limited ess and no one was allowed to walk in there without prior approval.
Therefore, everyone envied Shangguan Ning, who was assistant to the President. They couldnt help but wish that they were in her shoes.
Shangguan Ning,on her part, was obviously aware of the scorn she drew from the women in thepany. From the day when she started work at Jingsheng, she realised that all her female colleagues secretly vyed for Jing Yisheng.
Some wanted to pry about Jing Yichens interests, some wished to deliver presents to Jing Yichen through her, whilst some were trying their best to understand her rtionship with Jing Yichen...
She kept a calm exterior through all of this and dealt with them with a smile. Inside though, her heart was in constant turmoil.
How could this man, with such an indifferent attitude, be so attractive to girls? She was so jealous. At the same time, she feared that these women would ostracize her, if they were to ever learn that they were married, lived together and shared the same bed every day.
Therefore, she insisted on not entering thepany with Jing Yichen, when they got to work every morning.
Every time it was Tiger, who drove the car to the neighbouringpound, where she got off the car, and waited until Jing Yichen entered thepany. Only then did she walk in to thepany herself.
Jing Yichen didnt interfere with her decision. He wanted her to take her own time toe to terms with their rtionship.
After all, sooner orter, it would bemon knowledge that she was his woman.
When he saw Shangguan Ning get off the car this morning in her short skirt and ck heels, he frowned.
Why hadnt he noticed before that the skirt of the womens uniform at Jingsheng Enterprise had been so short, that her legs were left exposed.
There was no way he would allow that to continue. He reminded himself to speak to the head of the administrative department. He would see to it that the skirt would be made knee-long or simply reced with trousers.
With well polished hands holding onto a coat and a handbag, Shangguan Ning entered the front hall and exchanged New Years greetings with two of her colleagues.
After exchanging a few words with Shangguan Ning, one of them said, A man is asking for you. He said that he is your friend. He is waiting in Guest Room No.7.
Shangguan Ning was slightly startled. Who would be asking for her?
Seeing her confusion, Anna exined, He said his family name is Xie.
Shangguan Ning understood instantly C it must be Xie Zhuojun.
She really disliked him and his name. However, she thanked Anna with a smile and started to walk towards Guest Room No.7. She pushed open the frosted ss door and spotted Xie Zhuojun, who was dressed in a coffee-brown suit. He looked radiant and handsome.
For some reason, the same face that made her heart skip a beat a few years ago, now made her squirm. At this moment, however, she felt calm and peaceful. It was as if the p she gave him, several days ago, had helped her vent her anger and appease her heart.
In spite of the fact that she had given him her all, this man never treated her with the respect and gratitude which she deserved. No doubt then, that she could never realise her own potential. She had liked him then but she was a different person now.
She never had been in love before. He had been ina when she was engaged with Xie Zhuojun. As soon as he woke up, he had fallen in love with Shangguan Rouxue. They had had a short courtship period, but their rtionship wasnt that deep at all.
It was just that after taking care of him for so long, she had already treated him as her own family, and she had assumed that it had been love.
Seeing Shangguan Ning stare at him this way, Xie Zhuojun misunderstood. He thought that she still had some feelings for him.
He coughed to grab her attention. He then pulled out a cheque from his wallet and handed it over to Shangguan Ning.
I got you a small present. Please ept it and dont bully Xue in the future. You and I are not meant to be together. You shouldnt me others for it. I dont love you. I never will. If you were to get along with Xue, then we could still interact. I will treat you like my sister and take care of you.
Every word that Xie Zhuojun said, repulsed her. Shangguan Ning was no longer lost and thinking of the past. She looked sharp and in control. She looked at the cheque and spotted the 2 million yuan written there. She sneered. She tore the cheque and threw it on Xie Zhuojuns face.
Two million yuan? Is that all? Shangguan Ning had thought that her p might have injected some sense into him.
It had managed to absolve her grudges against him. At this moment though, she was seething with anger and felt like giving him two more ps.
Mr. Xie, if you really want topensate me, please show some sincerity. If you cant be sincere, please stay away from me, otherwise your girlfriend would assume that I am clinging to you. I dont think she would be able to handle that.
Xie Zhuojuns face flushed with embarrassment. Shangguan Ning didnt stop there.
She said calmly, There are fewer than five people who know that I am working at Jingsheng. How did youe to know of it? Have you got someone to spy on me? Or was it your girlfriend who told you about it?
Xue is worried about you. She cares about you. Thats why she took the effort to find out where you worked. Xie Zhuojun exined.
He tried to suppress his anger and defend Shangguan Rouxue.
Shangguan Ning replied calmly, Being worried is just an excuse you use to intrude into my life. My life is so much better without the likes of you and Shangguan Rouxue. Havent you realised that by now?
Xie Zhuojun froze at the realisation. She was right.
He was unable to ept it. This wasnt the Shangguan Ning he knew. The old Shangguan Ning would have been living an unhappy and unstable life without him, pining for him all the time.
Shangguan Ning said, This is my work ce. Please donte here ever again.Theres nothing left to say between us.
Her tone was calm and peaceful. She was not angry or bitter. She was unaffected by him and Xie Zhuojun felt really unimportant. She had changed so much that he had no idea who she was anymore. She wasnt like this before. Back then, she would easily adjust to his ways but not this time. Xie Zhuojun grew ufortable.

Xie Zhuojun had a faint recollection of the day he woke up from hisa. His body had lost most of its sensation. Two experienced nurses were hired by the family to massage him, like experts do. His body was stiff though, and his muscles hadnguished after being still for two years. He was not even able to walk by himself or get dressed without help.
Shangguan Ning had kept himpany and helped him with all the necessary exercises. She encouraged him when he was in too much pain to go on. She praised him when he made even a little progress.
In order to make him feel better, she would push him around in a wheelchair. No matter how hot-tempered he was, she would tolerate him and forgive him...
She never cared about her appearance. She was always dressed in an ordinary T-shirt and a pair of jeans. She wore no makeup. She spent all of her time taking care of him. She bought him luxurious clothes and shoes. Something that she denied herself even. She was happy when he was happy.
Unlike her, Xue would be dressed in luxurious and expensive clothes. She always bought thetest edition of shoes and bags. She used only branded perfumes and cosmetics. She put in a lot of effort to ensure that she looked her best everyday.
Four yearster, Ning had changedpletely. She looked so beautiful. The Jingsheng uniform consisted of a white blouse and a ck skirt. It made her look elegant and intellectual. She was able to keep a hold on her emotions and stand up for herself when she needed to.
She was no longer the naive girl who knew nothing else apart fromplying to his wishes all the time.
Ning, you have changed.
Xie Zhuojuns tone had a hint of sorrow.
Shangguan Ning was about to leave but stopped, hearing his words.
She stared at him as if she were staring at an idiot. Xie Zhuojun, do you expect me to still follow you around like a fool, like I used to? Should I wish you all the happiness and die a lonely death myself? It was you who cheated on me and our engagement. It was you who slept with someone else.
That is not what I meant, Ning. I hope you can have a good life too. Xie Zhuojun looked up and exined anxiously.
He felt so guilty about his behaviour towards Shangguan Ning, everytime that she spoke of the past.
He and Xue had both hoped that Shangguan Ning would find someone else who was worthy of her and allow them both to move on with their lives as well.
Suddenly he was struck by a thought. Could that fierce man, whom they met the other day have been Shangguan Nings date?
Ning, who was the man with you at the beach, the other day? He... doesnt look like a good person. You better stay away from him to avoid being hurt by himter.
It is none of your business who I am with. Shangguan Ning didnt want anyone to bad mouth Jing Yichen ever. He was her husband and she would always defend him.
Xie Zhuojun felt that she was blind to the ways of the real world. So he sighed and tried to persuade her. Dont be impulsive. Dont just settle for someone and be with him just to annoy me. Love cant be forced and casual rtionships were never your style. So then why do it, Ning? Why? Is it because he is rich? You do know that women of this day and age have learnt how to fend for themselves.
Shangguan Ning was annoyed. Xie Zhuojun, you are simply too narcissistic. Do you think that all girls in the world are in love with you?!
She thought that it was necessary to rify certain things with this man who thought that the world revolves around him.
I dont like you. Nor do I care about what you think. I dont even need your concern. Every time I run into Shangguan Rouxue, things start to go wrong. She just provokes me and pretends to be all innocent. As for who I am with, it definitely has nothing to do with you. It is so ridiculous that you consider yourself to be this important, that your opinion would matter to me.
Xie Zhuojun was speechless. He never expected Shangguan Ning to get back at him with such sharp words.
A part of him still didnt believe Shangguan Ning. He was about to say something when he identally noticed a diamond ring on Shangguan Nings index finger.
He burst out. Are you married? He could hardly conceal his astonishment.
Shangguan Ning didnt say anything at all. She touched the ring and thought of the man she loved. She couldnt help smiling.
Xie Zhuojun saw her expression clearly.
It was impossible! Absolutely impossible! It was him whom Shangguan Ning loved. How could she get married before him?
With her next words, Shangguan Ning burst his bubble.
Yes, I am married. She said.
She hadnt nned to tell Xie Zhuojun, but he was simply too narcissistic. He and Shangguan Rouxue always brought her nothing but pain. She couldnt handle them anymore. Now that she had told him that she was married, she hoped that he would nevere back here again.
When ? With whom? Where? Why didnt I know about it? Are you lying? Xie Zhuojun asked in disbelief. He wanted to know all the details.
Shangguan Ning looked at him and thought about how hopeless he was. Why should she divulge anything?
I need to work now. Please leave, and donte back again.
She turned around calmly, opened the door and walked out.
Xie Zhuojun stood in the guest room and didnt move. He could still see the ring in his minds eye.
He knew Shangguan Ning well. She was a girl who liked simple things rather than shy,plicated stuff. She didnt like the jewellery most women loved. Had it not been a wedding ring, she would not have even worn it on her finger.
He pulled out his cell phone and was about to call Shangguan Rouxue and ask her if she knew about Shangguan Nings marriage. But then he held himself back and decided to pry around on his own first.
He put his cell phone back in his pocket, picked up his briefcase and left Jingsheng Enterprise.
Although he still trusted Shangguan Rouxue, he couldnt help thinking about what Shangguan Ning had said.
She had said it time and again C Shangguan Rouxue was, in reality, a very different person from whom she pretended to be.
He remembered the incident when he was trying to trace down Shangguan Ning, all those years ago. He looked far and wide, for hertest telephone number, her home address or details of the ce she worked at, but to no avail. Xue had managed to find all of Nings details, the very same day.
She mustve had some powerful connections to be able to pull that off.
If Shangguan Ning could undergo such a drastic change from the kind of person she was,years ago.. was it possible for Xue to have changed too ?
No, that was impossible! He shouldnt suspect Xue!

When Jing Yichen came to the office, he waited for Shangguan Ning, but she hadnt reported to work yet.
He found it strange but since there were other urgent matters that required his attention, he turned to contact the Deputy President. This individual was in charge of the overseas mining business of Jingsheng Enterprise.
There were nine deputy presidents at Jingsheng, headed by Jing Yichen.They were in charge of different businesses and all pressing matters were to be reported to Jing Yichen. Eighteen directors were subordinate to the nine deputy Presidents.These directors resided in various countries and headed specific projects.
If at all there was a problem overseas that the directors or deputy presidents couldnt handle, then Jing Yichen had to make an overseas business trip.
He had lived abroad for ten years, and had been to almost every city across the globe. He was familiar with each and every one of overseas businesses held by Jingshen Enterprise.
The foreign affairs office was facing one such issue currently for which they required Jing Yichens presence and expertise. JingYichen had to leave for the airport immediately, so took his private elevator to the lobby. He had just seated himself in his ck Bentley, when he spotted Xie Zhuojun leaving the Jingsheng Enterprise building.
Jing Yichen pulled out his cell phone and sent out a message. When he received a revert, he frowned. His expression was an unhappy one.
Shangguan Ning didnt find Jing Yichen when she got to the 76th floor. She wondered where he might be. Just then her cell phone rang. It was a message from Jing Yichen.
Something urgent hase up and I have to make ast minute trip abroad. Reschedule all of todays meetings. Leave any wild grass to Lee Duo.
It took Shangguan Ning a while before she realized what he meant by wild grass.
Did he see her talk with Xie Zhuojun in the guest room?
Although she had nothing to do with Xie Zhuojun anymore, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding, she made it a point to give an exnation to Jing Yichen.
This bit of Wild grass is somebody elses problem. I neednt bother about it. I am a flower that belongs to you. There is nothing going on between us. When are you back?
Jing Yichen smiled upon reading her message. His heart warmed up at her words. Especially the belongs to you and the when are you back bit.
Three days if it goes fast, five if it goes slow. Dont worry. I owe you these days. I will make up for all this when I return.
Shangguan Ning flushed seeing the message. This man had some cheek. She smiled and said,shameless.
She turned on theputer, and started to reschedule the rest of Jing Yichens meetings.
After that was done, she followed Lu Qing around, so as to get a better understanding of her job profile.
She needed to liaise with colleagues in different departments on various asions. This was the time to connect with them and get to know them.
As perpany policy, her personal CV was required to be filed inpany records.
What Shangguan Ning didnt know, was that her marital status had been updated to married. It used to say C single C but now Jing Yichen ensured that the necessary changes were done, after they got married.
All her female colleagues were happy once they got to know of this change. Since Shangguan Ning was married, she was no longerpetition. She would obviously not vie for Jing Yichens attention now. They let out a sigh of relief.
But when the men saw her marital status, they wallowed in self pity because they no longer had a chance of pursuing her any more.
Shangguan Ning didnt know that her marital status had been changed by someone. What she noticed was that all her female colleagues who were rude and indifferent to her earlier, now greeted her with much love and enthusiasm. Such a change in attitude!
In the meanwhile, once Xie Zhuojun left Jingsheng Enterprise, he immediately contacted his friend who was the Head of the local Police Station. He inquired about Shangguan Nings marital status.
The answer he received, spoilt his mood C she was married.
Also, the Head of Police Station was only able to find out about her marital status, not the person she married to.
The silhouette of the man who was with Ning at the beach, the other day, came to his mind. He frowned.
He arrived at home. Shangguan Rouxue was away, working. She was shooting for a show at the TV station.
As a matter of fact, most of the time she would be at the TV station, working. When she was free, she would spend most of her time at the beauty salon or socialising. She was barely at home.
He then thought to himself, he had no business demanding that Shangguan Rouxue be home. They werent married or engaged. In any case, he knew that even if they were to marry, these things would still not change. She would hardly ever be home.
But why was he even thinking of marriage? Was it because he had gotten to know that Shangguan Ning was married ?
The two sisters just couldnt bepared. They were as different as chalk and cheese.
In the past when Shangguan Ning fussed over him, he found her pretty annoying. Yet, at this moment, when he was all alone, he felt rather lonely.
The Head of the TV Station gave Shangguan Rouxue a lift home. She then went on to attend a banquet hosted by the Heads Wife.
When she got home, she found Xie Zhuojun smoking and in a gloomy mood. He was lying down on the sofa.
The crystal ashtray in front of him was full of ash and cigarette butts.
Xie Zhuojun didnte up to her as usual. He didnt offer to take off her coat or get her bag. Shangguan Rouxue wasnt happy but she didnt show the displeasure. Instead, she came to him gently, and sat on his thighs asked, Why are you smoking again, Zhuojun? Smoking is injurious to health. Hadnt you quit?
Xie Zhuojun didnt reply and that made Shangguan Rouxue feel uneasy. She knew that something had changed. He just stared at her. Not out of love, like he usually did, but in a bizarre manner.
Shangguan Rouxues voice was even gentler than before. Her expression was one of sympathy and love. What is it? Have you run into any problem at thepany? Can I do something to make you feel better?
Xie Zhuojun had been a smoker before, but after Shangguan Rouxueined that she wasnt a fan of smokers, he never smoked again. What had happened? Why did he start smoking again? And that too, this much?
The entire room reeked of smoke and she was starting to feel ufortable.
She coughed, as if the smoke choked her.
Xie Zhuojun came back to his senses. He stubbed the half-finished cigarette into the ashtray. He then helped Xue get out of her fur coat. It stank of alcohol. He carried her to the bedroom.
They made wild love. Shangguan Rouxues moans could be heard all over the house. Zhuojun didnt stop until after sometime. He let Shangguan Rouxue fall asleep and then got up to leave.
The moment he left, Shangguan Rouxue who was supposed to be asleep, opened her eyes.
The stormy love making session that they had just had, had made her very suspicious and ufortable.
She took her cell-phone, sent a text to a certain number and deleted the message from her records, after it was sessfully delivered.

Chapter 71: The Crisis of Liyu Science & Technology
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Human beings are creatures of habit. A trait is hard to let go of once it bes a habit.
Shangguan Ning had been married to Jing Yichen for such a short time, yet these two days when he was away, made her restless. Home didnt feel like home.
She lived by herself for more than four years, but she had never felt like this.
It was a good thing that work kept her busy these days. It kept her mind off all such feelings.
That afternoon she was studying the intricacies of developing good public rtions, when her cell-phone rang.
The middle-aged voice on the other side asked, Is that Ning?
Although Shangguan Ning hadnt heard this voice in four years, still could still recognise it.
She answered, This is Ning, Uncle.
It was Shangguan Zhengs younger brother C Shangguan Xing, who had called her.
How have you been? I havent seen you in ages. I bet you have grown into a fine youngdy!
I am well. Shangguan Ning replied, in a voice devoid of emotion.
Shangguan Xing could sense theck of enthusiasm in his nieces voice. He couldnt me her for it. He was aware that he had hurt her. He knew how sensitive she was about Liyu Science & Technology.
He tried to ignore it and continued to make small talk with her. He said. Ning, why dont youe over and visit us someday? Your Aunt misses you too. Lets reconnect over dinner. What do you say?
Shangguan Ning rejected his invitation, without a second thought. There is no need to take all this trouble, Uncle. Im busy now. Lets speak about this, some other time.
Ning knew that her aunt never really cared about her. All she cared about was money.
She was about to hang up when she heard Shangguan Xing say anxiously, Ning, dont hang up! Liyu Science & Technology has run into problems. Please help me!
He was aware that as soon as he spoke about Liyu Science & Technology, he had Shangguan Nings attention .
Sure enough, Shangguan Ning asked after pausing for a second. Whats wrong?
Shangguan Xing was relieved. He refused to divulge anymore details. Instead, he said, Come home tonight. I will fill you in with everything that you need to know. This cant be discussed over the phone.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but frown.
The fury that was pent up inside her heart, was like a volcano that was on the verge of erupting. Yet she maintained herposure, and replied in the affirmative, Alright!
Liyu Science & Technology didnt only have her mothers name, but it was also a fruit of all the efforts which her mother had put in. As of this day, even though she didnt have anything to do with thepany, she couldnt just be a bystander when it was going through troubled times.
She drove to Shangguan Xings house at the end of her working day.
Shangguan Xing greeting her enthusiastically at the door. He helped her take off her coat. Her aunt was busy making arrangements for tea.
Shangguan Ning was seeing her aunt and uncle after so many years. Even then, she didnt feel happy, rather, the exact opposite.
The hosts were over enthusiastic. That was obviously because they needed her.
Have a seat, Ning! Why dont you have some fruit? I have bought your favourite cherries. Aunt Fang Ruo said warmly. As if she really cared about Ning.
Shangguan Ning wasnt moved. She already knew about her Aunts fickle behaviour. Were circumstances any different, and if Ning was of no use to them, her aunt wouldnt think twice before driving her out of the house. Right now though, her aunt treated Ning as if she was her own daughter.
Shangguan Ning sat down on the sofa in the living room and said casually, Dont get too busy, Aunt. I wont be able to stay long.
Thats not nice. You should stay until dinner. Do you like fresh salmon? Your cousin has gone out to buy it. He will be back with it shortly.
Fang Ruo insisted that Ning stay.
Shangguan Ning was indifferent. She turned to Shangguan Xing. Uncle, can you tell me about Liyu Science & Technology now?
Shangguan Xing looked at her awkwardly.
Fang Ruo who couldnt hold back any more, started to speak of the problems that haunted thepany. Shangguan Ning understood that her aunts tears were just for the sake of gaining some sympathy.
The new smart phones at Liyu Science & Technology had been recently developed keeping youngsters in mind. These phones were capable of taking high resolution pictures and had a long standby period. Shangguan Rouxue, the popr socialite of A City, was invited to be the ambassador of the product. Although she was quite popr, yet the cell phone hadnt done quite well as most youngsters couldnt afford to buy it. Therefore, the sales had dipped.
Besides, LOVE Science & Technology, that was a subsidiary of the business that belonged to Family Ji, has justunched a new branded cell-phone under the Love series. This phone looks good and was reasonably priced.
If one were topare the two products, the cellphones of Liyu Science & Technology cut a sorry picture. If nothing concrete was done at the earliest, they would not only lose out on their initial capital investment, but also face public embarrassment.
What made matters worse was that in this crucial, difficult period, someone had poached their entire Research and Development team. Someone had literally bought them off.
Liyu Science & Technology was on the verge of copse.
Shangguan Ning was very unhappy upon hearing these words.
Uncle, I may not be able to change anything when the development team is not in ce. You better establish a new team as soon as possible.
Shangguan Xing was a professional science and technology developer, and he was more knowledgeable than most experts. Besides, development of cell-phones was a strategic mistake and Shangguan Xing would have to bear the consequences himself.
Shangguan Xing sighed, thought for a moment and said, Ning, you may not be aware, but our development team was poached by someone, on purpose! Not because of their expertise but to cause our downfall. That man has only one condition. That you have lunch with him. He would return our team to us, and even help us to beat the Love cell-phone.
Shangguan Ning froze. What did they expect her to do? Go and see a stranger and spend time with him over a lunch date?
How could they sell her out so easily? How could they ?
Controlling her temper, she stood up slowly, picked up her bag and started to leave.
This is your own business, not mine. Liyu Science & Technology has nothing to do with me anymore. You gave me a payout of 5 million yuan and drove me away!
Seeing her leave, Shangguan Xing couldnt hold himself back. He shouted, It wasnt my decision alone, for you to have lunch with that man. It was your fathers decision as well.
Shangguan Ning was shocked.It took her a few minutes to regain her senses. Whoever has made this decision, I have nothing to do with it. I dont need to sacrifice myself just for your sake.
Someone wouldnt have gone to so much trouble of driving Liyu Science & Technology to closure, just in order to get herpany over lunch.
Shangguan Xing knew what thispany meant to Shangguan Ning. He touched a raw nerve when he said, Ning, you dont need to think of my well being, but at least think of your mother. Liyu Science & Technology was established by her. Do you want to see it fail?

Shangguan Ning didnt move an inch.
A few minutester, she turned around and asked Shangguan Xing. Thepany needs my help?
Shangguan Xing wasnt sure what she meant, so he nodded. Yes, thepany needs your help.
What benefits do I get if I do help?
Well... Shangguan Xing was speechless. He hadnt thought of this.
Shangguan Ning had foreseen this. She knew that her father and her uncle were known to take advantage of people. What she hadnt expected was that they could be so cheeky so as to do it right in front of her.
Oh Ning, we are a family, we dont need to talk about benefits. Your Uncle wont forget your favour to us when the business is back on its feet. We are your family. It hurts when you treat us like outsiders. Fang Ruo answered immediately seeing that her husband was unable to reply to Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Xing thought that what his wife said made sense.
Shangguan Ning was his niece, and the daughter of his elder brother Shangguan Zheng. It was her duty to help out with the family business. How dare she ask for benefits?
Shangguan Ning was annoyed to no end. She thought of all that which had happened when she was ten years old.
After her mother, Huang Liyumitted suicide, Shangguan Xing had separated her 5 million yuan from thepany and given the money to her.
She was only ten years old back then and had no idea about what was going on. She was just happy to ept the money, when it came around. The only legacy she had in hand right now, was the 5 million her mother left her.
The settlement was as unfair one, as Shangguan Ning had been due to inherit a lot more. However, they thought that she was young and na?ve, so she wouldnt know better.
Five million yuan, invested by Nings mother so long ago, were worth a whole lot more when Ning was ten. Besides, if they wanted to give Ning, her mothers shares, they would have to take into ount the fact that since the business had done so well, the investment had more than quadrupled. What was the point of giving her five million?
Every year thepany had dered a handsome profit. If Nings mother had not withdrawn a penny of her profits share, at the end of each year, then where did that money go?
Huang Lihan had once thought about helping his dead sister and young niece to get justice, but Shangguan Ning was Shangguan Zhengs daughter after all, and taking him down would hurt Ning. Besides, she looked up to her father and it wasnt a good idea to spoil their rtionship.
Ning wasnt aware of all this, when she was little, so she didnt know how to defend her own interest. After she grew up, however, she realised how her family had disappointed her, but she chose not to speak of the past.
She believed that she was capable of providing herself with the life she rightly deserved. She did not need to create a fuss with her family over money.
She had been sold by them once, and now she was going to be sold once again? She was no longer the weak, feeble Shangguan Ning who tolerated everything.
With tears in her eyes, she sneered. A family? Yes, we are a family. Does it mean that 90% of my mothers share is still held by you all? Then that 90% share should be mine now. Right ?
Her Aunt stood up from the sofa like a cat whose tail had just been stamped. She asked Shangguan Ning What nonsense? What do you mean by 90% of the share? The five million, your mothers initial investment was already returned to you when you were ten. Dont deny it. You signed the deal years ago.
Oh really? I was only ten years old then and didnt know better. Since you just said that we were family, Aunt, please tell me which sort of person takes advantage of a child? You deprived me of my inheritance.
Bah, it is written on the paper. You have no choice but to admit it!
Oh yeah? So it has alle down to this ? Where did all your big talks about family and love, disappear? Do you want to talk about legalities instead? Speaking of legalities, do you, Aunt, think that a ten-year-olds signature would hold up in the court ofw?
Shangguan Ning stood straight and strong.
She would not stand by and watch Liyu Science & Technology hit bankruptcy, but she wouldnt offer free help either. Thepany belonged to her mother. These so called rtives of hers were getting more greedy and shameless by the day. Even at this stage, they were trying to take advantage of her. It seemed pretty obvious to her. They did not deserve thepany and it was time for her to take back what rightfully belonged to her.
I dont care if thew doesnt consider the contract to be valid. The money was given to you, and we are the ones running thepany now. It was your father who approved the settlement amount. Besides, your father gets his share of thepany profits, annually. If you are looking to pin the me on someone, we are not the ones to be med. It should be your father.
Since when did Deputy-Mayor Shangguan start to take my decisions for me? Why do I have to make a sacrifice just because you proposed a deal and my father agreed to it? Both Shangguan Rouxue and Yang Wenshu have shares to thepany, so why have youe to me for help, in the time of distress? Is it because you think that I cant defend myself? I may be a motherless child, but I know the difference between right and wrong. Shangguan Ning said what she wanted to but she still wasnt feeling better.
Shangguan Xing and Fang Ruo hadnt met Shangguan Ning for more than four years. She was apletely different person from who she used to be. The Shangguan Ning, who stood in front of them now, was not scared of demanding her right. She did not mince her words. The Shangguan Ning that they knew, used to be obedient and tame. What had happened to her?
The couple wasnt used to this new, fearless Shangguan Ning.
They wouldnt have ever bothered to get in touch with her, if it wasnt for the recent problems of Liyu Science & Technology. They felt that it was only right that Shangguan Ning should offer her help.
Aunt eximed, Oh Ning.. youve changed so much.You were not like this before. Was all the love we gave you, when you were a child, in vain? We did not bully you because your mother was no more. Why would you think that? I treated you like my own daughter. Your mothermitted suicide. You do know what that means, right? It means that she couldnt bear the pain anymore. She couldnt live on. She chose to leave you, and for that, we are not to be med.
Shangguan Ning was taken aback. How dare she speak of her mother this way? Her mothers suicide was a dark cloud that loomed over life constantly.
She had always thought that her mother chose to end her own life without thinking of Ning.
Now that she looked back on her life, she realised that her mother loved her deeply and had never wanted to leave her at all.
It hadnt been her intention tomit suicide!
With eyes full of tears, she stared at Fang Ruo and said coldly, My mother didntmit suicide, she was forced to death by all of you!
If Fang Ruo hadnt said what she did, then Ning wouldve not spoken of the past as well. Now that all had been said, there was no way she would spare them. There was no reason to.
She was definitely get charge of Liyu Science & Technology. She would ensure that she left nothing to these people.
Ning,you shouldnt speak in this way. When did we drive her to take her own life? It had been Yang Wenshu who had made her unhappy. Your uncle and I have nothing to do with it.
Shangguan Ning didnt expect her aunt to confess to her sins. That was too much to ask for.
She argued with her no more. It had been years since the incident had urred. She wasnt sure if Fang Ruo was involved. Yang Wenshu, on the other hand, was the prime suspect. Both these sisters-inw were on great terms with each other and were often hand in glove on most things. So clearly, no one was innocent in this mess.
She had started to look into the matter and one day, she was going to find out the truth.

The conversation ended unpleasantly. Shangguan Ning walked out of Shangguan Xings home. On her way out, she ran into her cousin, Shangguan Minghao who had just came back from the market after buying some fish.
Sister!
Shangguan Ning nodded slightly at her cousin who was now a talld. Hello Minghao. I wouldve wanted to spend some time with you but Im leaving now.
Shangguan Minghao came to her side and insisted that she try some salmon. These salmon are so fresh. They were the catch of the day. Do take them home and try them. You could have them for lunch. Speaking of lunch, the man who wants to take you out on a lunch date is up to no good. Please dont agree to meet him.
Shangguan Nings heart filled with love for her twenty-year-old cousin. Maybe he was the only person who really cared about her, in the entire family.
She smiled and said, Thanks for your concern. Im leaving now. Youd better go home too.
Shangguan Minghao felt sad seeing his cousin leave. He hadnt seen her in so long.
He was aware of what his parents were nning. As per the current situation, he would be the heir to Liyu Science & Technology. He had decided, though, that he did not want anything to do with it.
Thispany ought to belong to his cousin, rather than him. He was not happy about the idea of his cousin having lunch and making small talk with an unknown man. Who knew what other ridiculous demands would the mane up with next ?
Even though he himself was only twenty years old, Minghao was confident that he could establish a career for himself based on his own ability, rather than take over a business that did not belong to him, in the first ce.
His heart went out to his cousin, Ning. She had lost her mother at the age of 10, was forced to get engaged at the age of 19, that too with a man who was in a vegetative state and her fianc gained consciousness only to fall in love with Nings step sister.
Ning had already had a terrible life. How could his family hurt her any further?
He had never been too fond of Shangguan Rouxue, though she looked pretty and seemed kind. He had stopped acknowledging her as his cousin after he got to know of how she had betrayed Ning by sleeping with Xie Zhuojun.
He wondered why would anybody even think that she was kind and considerate? What kind of a woman would rob her own sister of her husband?
When Shangguan Ning got back home, she decided to calm herself down a bit. She was still so angry. Shee sat down in the quiet study. The house still felt empty. She couldnt help but think of Jing Yichen.
His face was etched in her head. Just as she was thinking of him, her phone rang. It was him.
She smiled as the phone shed husband on the screen.
She had originally saved his number as the President. He had modified itter.
In a daunting and sexy voice, he asked her, My love, have you eaten yet?
For some reason, Shangguan Nings anxious heart was at ease, as soon as she heard his voice.
Not yet. What about you?
Jing Yichen had been very busy during thest few days. Due to the time difference, it hadnt been convenient for him to call Shangguan Ning often.
He took the effort to call his wife, whenever he had the time.
Without Shangguan Ning by his side, he felt unprecedentedly anxious, fearing that something might happen to her. Although Lee Duo was protecting her, without her knowledge, he knew that with ck Wind atrge, he could never be sure.
Hearing her sound so tired, he felt concerned.
Why havent you eaten yet? It is eight oclock at night in Beijing. Be a good girl and eat something, I will call youter.
Shangguan Ning felt so good when he bossed her out of love. She had been feeling fatigued earlier, but she felt much better after speaking with him.
She wasnt feeling hungry at this moment, but she had her dinner. She knew Jing Yichen would worry, if he knew that she had skipped her meal.
After dinner, she called him back.
They talked for a while before hanging up.
Shangguan Ning didnt tell him about Liyu Science & Technology. She wanted to solve her own problems, by herself. She couldnt help thinking of what would happen, if she didnt seed. If she failed to get charge of thepany, it would be toote for her to tell him then.
After speaking with Ning, Jing Yichen felt worse than before. Yichen was smart and had a strong sense of observation. He realised that Ning wasnt her usual self today. Something was bothering her. Something wasnt right and he needed to find out what that was.
He needed to go home as soon as possible. Luckily, most of the official matters had been handled.
At the back of his mind though, he knew that one day, he would need to visit the USA. To pick up Tang Yun, whom he had been looking for, for the past ten years.
His heart wouldnt be at peace, until she was back.
Jing Yichen decided that he wouldnt hold this off any longer. He set out for the USA. Shangguan Ning, on the other hand, made a call to her uncle, Shangguan Xing and asked for the contact details of the man who wished to see her.
She met that man over lunch, the following day.
The meeting was set for the following afternoon. They were to meet at Royal Crown, which was the most luxurious and expensive restaurant in A City.
The decor at Royal Crown was European. The restaurant was styled in dark and muted tones. It looked royal, magnificent and had an air of nobility. Although it was very expensive, it was the go-to ce for celebrities.
Shangguan Ning had once had visited Royal Crown, with Xie Zhuojun. He had just recovered and Family Xie invited her to lunch at this restaurant, as a token of appreciation, for all the efforts that she had put into making Zhuojun feel better.
She remembered that afternoon so vividly. Xie Zhuojun was about to start his meal, when he was called away by a phone call.
She would learnter that it was Shangguan Rouxue, who had called him. Maybe it had been because of this incident that she never liked this ce much.
As soon as she entered Royal Crown, the waiter led her to the Elegant Room.
She walked straight in.
There she saw a man watching the sea, leaning against the window. Upon hearing her enter, he turned around and smiled at her charmingly. Do sit down, Ms. Shangguan.
He was tall and muscr. His body was in excellent shape, though what caught Ning by surprise, was his face. He looked so good, that it was hard to tell if he was human or a Greek God. The sapphire blue and gold silk costume that he wore, only enhanced his looks further.
Shangguan Ning had never expected that a man could be this handsome. He was perfect.
She was confused. A man like himcked no money or women. Why would he have been interested in Liyu Science & Technology? And why did he want to have lunch with her?
Jing Yiran was aware of the effect he had on people. In fact, he enjoyed it. More so, on Shangguan Ning. She was charmed by his looks and he took pride in it.
He strode forward, towards Shuangguan Ning. The scent of his perfume made Shangguan Ning squirm.
The man in front of her was attractive, there was no doubt about that. There was something about him, though, that told her this man spelt trouble. She felt ill at ease and wished that she could leave.
Shangguan Ning retreated a few steps, thereby creating a distance between them.
Jing Yiran stopped walking towards her, sensing her difort. Instead, he just stood still and surveyed her.
Tall and slim, elegant and fresh. Her face was without any makeup. Her skin was translucent and tender. Her eyes were clear, as if desiring nothing.
She looked very pretty but he knew, she was more than that.
He touched his chin with his palm and thought to himself C He would definitely fool around with the woman who stole his brothers heart.

Chapter 74: The Prey He Had Spotted

Jing Yiran didnt look menacing but it was just that Shangguan Ning didnt like being stared at.
She wondered if she had just been silly in overthinking the situation, earlier?
Whatever his reasons may be, Ning didnt want to be around this man for too long. She got to the crux of the matter immediately. What would it take for you to return the research and development team of Liyu Science & Technology?
Jing Yiran said, Oh! Its nice to see that along with your good looks, you also have a hot temper. I like that! To add to that, youre fierce and straight forward. Your kind is the most fun to fool around with! I hope Shangguan Xing told you that you have to spend one night with me, for me to give you back your team.
Shangguan Ning was livid. She couldnt believe that her family had wanted her to meet this man, even after knowing his real motive.
Shangguan Ning was still in shock but kept a calm exterior. What youve done is illegal. If you dont undo your mistake, mywyers will get in touch with you. Well take you to court. You can expect a legal notice to reach you soon.
Everything had suddenly be so obvious. This man hadnt gone to such lengths and harmed her mothers firm, just to chit chat with her. He wanted something more and now she knew what it was.
Sure said Jing Yiran sarcastically. Speaking of following thew, let me tell you that I have a wless contract. Even if there was a loophole, nowyer or judge would dare to touch it, especially if you were filing a suit against me.
He came towards Shangguan Ning and put his arm around her neck in such a way that she was unable to move.
Then he whispered in her ears. My Beauty, dont try to challenge my patience, otherwise I will have no choice but to make you suffer. You wouldnt want that, would you ?
Ning was nervous but somehow gathered the strength to fight. She bit his arm, that was suffocating her.
Jing Yiran let out an involuntary cry of pain. He screamed in anger, How dare you bite me?
Shangguan Ning could taste his blood on her teeth. She was disgusted by the taste of blood. She took the water ss from the table calmly, gargled and then spat the water into the dustbin.
Even rabbits bite when forced. Besides, as you can see, I am not a rabbit! Shangguan Ning wiped off the water at her lips corner and said as she stared at the handsome face.
Now, tell me who you are or Im done here.
Youre only the second person ever, to have hurt me like this. No one dare touch me, let alone hurt me in this way.
The man in front of her was definitely not a random guy. She knew she had hurt someone powerful. He was wealthy and handsome, that was obvious. His outfit was custom made. His watch was a limited edition Patek Philippe, encrusted with diamonds.
What troubled her was that he knew a great deal about her, while she didnt know anything apart from his contact details. She didnt even know his name.
She once had a simr problem with Jing Yichen, but she wouldnt make the same mistake again.
Jing Yiran didnt bother answering her. Instead, he licked the blood off his wounded arm. He looked strangely attractive when he did this... like a wounded lion.
When he looked up again, his eyes were full of fury. Ive had enough. Watch what I do to you now.. and remember, you brought this upon yourself.
Shangguan Ning was scared but persisted unflinchingly. What she cared about most, was his identity and his real purpose.
Who are you? Why are you picking on Liyu Science & Technology?C she asked.
Jing Yiran came at her again. He grabbed her arms and pressed her against the wall. Shangguan Ning struggled furiously and yelled, Let go of me, you maniac!
A rose with thorns. No wonder he wants to marry you. Great, I love roses with thorns too. What I love more though, is pulling those thorns off. Jing Yirans eyes looked menacing.
Shangguan Ning didnt dare show him how much pain she was. The only words that ran through her mind now were, No wonder he wants to marry you. Who was Jing Yiran referring to?
She asked, How do you know Jing Yichen?!
Jing Yiran was startled. He never thought Ning would be able to pull the cat out of the bag this easily. Not bad. Not bad at all, for an eye candy like you to use her brains every once in a while. Im impressed. Youre a rare case! Anyway, dont mention any names. I dont want to ruin my mood!
Shangguan Ning struggled to get out of his hold but the more she fought him, the more he pressed himself against her.
Darling, what position do you like? You must be fond of being on the top, what with such a hot temper.
Shangguan Nings face was really nervous now. Beads of sweat began to form on her forehead. She couldnt do much except for digging her high heels into his foot. She did exactly that. She did that more than once.
Jing Yiran wasnt immune to this pain but the fact that Ning was so fierce and fought him incessantly, turned him on far more than any pain he had ever felt.
He was even more excited now. It had been a long time since he ran into such fierce prey.
The time hade , for him to do as he pleased. He was about to bite Shangguan Nings fresh and plump lips, when the door of Elegant Room was kicked open with a bang.

Chapter 75: I Should Be the One, Angry

Dressed in a ck suit, Jing Yichen stood at the door, ready to strike, like a cheetah.
Jing Yiran took the struggling Shangguan Ning into his arms, and held on to her tightly. Aha, so punctual! he said to Yichen, mockingly.
Have you forgotten your sweet little American lover after you met this beauty here? Havent you been missing her so much...?
Before he was able to finish his words, Jing Yichen punched his face with such speed and grit that Jing Yiran couldnt even defend himself.
Jing Yiran shrieked in pain. He involuntarily released Shangguan Ning from his hold, and charged towards Jing Yichen, with a fist.
Jing Yichen had already anticipated this move. After all, Jing Yichen had been in many street fights and knew the art of self defence. He was flexible and well prepared. On the contrary, Jing Yiran had been pampered all his life. He lived luxuriously and had never known what life on the street was like.
After a few minutes of fighting, Jing Yichen still looked orderly, whilst Jing Yiran was out of breath and bleeding profusely. His handsome facial features had now be swollen and distorted.
However, he feigned indifference, Bah, what a pity! Had youe in one secondter, I would have had a taste of the Beauty. Next time, Ill strip her, before I do anything else with her.
Jing Yichen showered him with blows. He didnt stop until Jing Yiran was lying senseless in a corner.
Jing Yichen didnt care much about Yiran or the condition he was in. He grabbed Shangguan Nings hand and left with her.
Ning stared at Yichen. How could a man be so fierce in one moment and gentle the next? He held her hand so tenderly, like she was fine porcin. Much unlike Yiran who didnt care about how much pain he caused her.
At the gates of Royal Crown, Lee Duo stood, with his bevy of men.
She realised that he had been protecting Shangguan Ning with his team on the sly. He mustve been the one to report to Jing Yichen about her meeting with Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran was a pervert and the whole city knew of his ways. He charmed is way into the pants of many women C married or single. The women werent to me, Yiran was so handsome, it was easy to fall for his talks. Hed trick them into sleeping with him by falsely promising them marriage. Later though, he never even bothered to call back the woman that he had been intimate with.
Anyone who came to his door would end up being in a terrible situation. As time went by, he was hailed as Mr. Ruthless.
Once, someone hadmented about the contrasting nature of the two sons of Family Jing C one of them was reserved and never let any woman bother him, whilst the other was such a handsome, smooth talker that he was always surrounded by women. Both of themcked any feelings and emotions.
Unlike Tiger who was simple-minded, Lee Duo had gone through various experiences, and he understood a great deal of the world. Lee Duo didnt know if Jing Yiran had ever been in love but he knew that his master, Jung Yichen was falling for thisdy. He could tell it from elder masters behaviour. He understood how important this woman was to his master. Therefore, he was very vignt about her protection. He knew exactly where she went and whom she met.
Lee Duo also knew that Jing Yiran had offended his older brother, when he dared to touch the woman Yichen loved.
Jing Yichen was still furious. He couldnt get over the fact that his wife had kept him in the dark about all this. Instead of sharing her problems with her husband, she had chosen to handle them herself and in the process walked into the very trap that Jing Yiran has set for her. He couldnt imagine what wouldve happened today, if he had gotten there anyter.
He couldnt me her entirely though. Yichen knew that his wife was just a means to an end, for Jing Yiran. Yiran had intended to hurt Yichen and this was the best way to do that.
Shangguan Ning was a smart girl. She knew intuitively that Jing Yichen was fuming and she knew exactly why. She hadnt expected that the man she would meet this morning would be this dangerous. She also wondered how the two men knew each other. She gauged that she was a pawn in the whole affair. Jing Yiran mustve wanted to avenge something. She just didnt know what.
She got into the car with Yichen. Her wrist hurt but she didnt speak of it. She remembered Jing Yirans words to Jing Yichen -Your American lover. She knew that Yiran was trying to sow seeds of suspicion between them two, but she was still upset.
Jing Yichen shouldve been back from his trip to Africa, in 3 days, yet he took 5 days to return. She knew that Jing Yichen did go to the USA. Now she was certain that Jing Yiran wasnt lying. Was he referring to the girl in Yichens painting... someone Yichen was unable to forget?
No woman would be able to tolerate her mans infidelity, no matter how much she loved him. Jing Yichen had once told Ning that there was nothing untoward going on between him and the girl he had painted, but somehow Ning found that hard to believe. Ning realised the depth of her feelings towards Yichen. She wouldnt have felt so bitter if she hadnt loved him.
One of Shangguan Nings traits was that she was bold enough to confront everyone in front of her.
No one could rob her of anything that belonged to her henceforth. She would not plead for anything that didnt belong to her, although the thing might scatter her life into pieces.
Jing Zhongxiu once said that Shangguan Ning had a straightforward and pure personality whilst Jing Yichen wasnt so talkative and was always in deep thought, and in that sense they couldplement each other. He was an experienced man and possessed really sharp senses, so hisments towards these two people had been totally on target.
For example, at this moment, while Jing Yichen stayed silent with a cold face, Shangguan Ning spoke directly, asking the questions that lingered in her heart.
Irrespective of how she felt, Shangguan Ning decided to be practical and confront the problem head on. She had to ask Yichen about this. If indeed Yichen loved the other woman, then she wouldnt hold on to someone who didnt love her back. It didnt matter if her heart would break to see Yichen leave.
Shangguan Ning spoke firmly, President, would you be so kind as to exin who that man was, and what he meant by your American lover? You are angry, I understand but shouldnt I be the one angry right now?

Jing Yichen looked at the woman he loved. He had been longing for her, day and night. She, on the other hand, was huddled in a corner and didnt even want to sit next to him. It had been a few hours since the incident with Jing Yiran, and there was still some underlying unpleasantness. How had they grown so distant from each other already?
He had been missing her and was so worried about her when he was abroad, while she was suspecting him of loving another woman. If he really loved someone else, why would he have taken this much effort to force her into a marriage, even when she was unwell? Why did she not trust him?
He couldnt take the distance between them anymore. He stretched out his arms and swept Shanggaun Ning into them. He lowered his head and kissed her with force. His kiss was wild and dominating. She belonged only to him. Only to him.
He couldnt forget the sight that had greeted his eyes when he entered The Elegant Room. He had seen her in the arms of another man.
Although he understood that it hadnt been her intention, he was still furious.
She must belong to him only!
His kiss made Shangguan Ning breathless.
He had never kissed her in such a reckless way before. Jing Yichen wasnt even bothered about Tiger, who was driving their car.
Shangguan Ning wanted to push him off, but her strength couldntpare to his. All her protests were futile and made Jing Yichen kiss her even deeper.
She felt suffocated. She bit his lips, hard, hoping to make him stop.
Jing Yichens lips were bruised and oozing blood. He released the woman inside his arms slightly, panting heavily as he put his forehead against hers. He held her by her slender waist and whispered in her ears, You must never ever allow any other man to touch you anymore, understand?
Shangguan Ning was so angry C had she willingly surrendered herself to Jing Yiran? God! How much she detested this man!! What did he expect out of her? That she should forget everything that happened this morning and throw herself into his arms?
Annoyed, she tried to move herself away from Jing Yichen. He responded quickly, by holding onto her even tighter.
As of this moment, their bodies were in close proximity with hardly any distance between them. They painted such a sensuous picture.
Your temper has worsened, after just a few days of separation. You are biting and kicking me!Cined Jing Yichen.
Get off me! Shangguan Ning said with a snarl, showing no intention of giving up. She knew she couldnt do much else because they werent alone.
No way! said Jing Yichen, who refused to let her go. The two bodies were snugly bound to each other, so much so that, they were even able to hear each others heart beat.
Shangguan Ning was totally unaware of the effect she had on Jing Yichen. Her fragrance and her temper were making him lose control. He longed for her so much that he wanted to take her at this very moment.
Shangguan Ning sensed the sexual tension between them. He was so irresistible. She thought of all the times that they had been on the verge of crossing all limits together.
She snapped out of her reverie, and asked Jing Yichen to move away from her. Heplied with her wishes instantly, and did not try toe close to her again. He did that more out of the fear of losing his self control, than anything else.
Ning hadnt expected him to give in this easily, so she was surprised when he did.
He didnt speak for a short while, and then said, The man who misbehaved with you today, is my half-brother. His name is Jing Yiran. I will ensure that you meet with the rest of my family soon. That way they will not be able to take you for a ride with their tactics. You will then be able to recognise them all.
Honestly, he had never intended on having Ning meet with his family. He wanted to hide her and keep her to himself for as long as he pleased. Now he was faced with no other choice. In case he didnt introduce her to them soon, there would always be a risk of them pulling a fast one on her.
Having Shangguan Ning meet with them would enable her to recognise them at least. She wouldnt be caught off guard, like today.
Shangguan Ning was rmed. That man was Jing Yichens brother? That meant that he already knew her identity before entrapping her in this way.
Why would he behave this way? Could it be to annoy and embarrass Jing Yichen?
You both ... are enemies? Shangguan Ning realised instantly that she had spoken out her thoughts, aloud. She silently chided herself for using an extreme word like C enemies.
Unexpectedly, however, Jing Yichen nodded and said, Yes.
Of course they were enemies, and today they became enemies to a further degree!
By attacking you, he has hurt the person who is most important to me. I didnt foresee his childish behaviour because of which you had to go through all this. Its all my fault. Im so sorry. I promise this wont happen again. He had never apologized to anybody in his life, and somehow Shangguan Ning was aware of this.
But he really did have the responsibility for todays incident. Therefore, no matter how ufortable it might feel, he still wanted to apologize to her. It was he who had failed to protect her so that she was harmed.
He had thought that his apology would make Shangguan Ning forget about this incident.
Unexpectedly, however, Shangguan Ning, who normally tended to be understanding and tolerant, didnt ept the apology this time at all.
She rolled the eyes at him and said cheekily, Of course it is your fault. Thats why I am so angry.
Liyu Science & Technology is apany which my mother set up while she was still alive. Jing Yiran intended to push them to bankruptcy and purposefully poached their entire research and development team. I only met him so that I could convince him to let them go.
Jing Yichen had already learnt all this, thanks to Lee Duo. What he didnt know, was that Liyu Science & Technology was set up by Nings mother. He had always thought that it was Shangguan Xingspany.
Next time, remember to run these things by me. We are husband and wife now. We can rely on each other. Jing Yichens expression was serious. His eyes were fixed upon her. Something about his tone, told her that he meant every word of what he just said.
Jing Yichen also broached the sensitive topic of hiding his American lover. How would he exin to Shangguan Ning that this was one of Jing Yirans cheap tricks in order to cause tension and insecurity between them, as a couple.
Before long, he was holding her again and trying to kiss her. He nibbled at her ears and asked her softly, Ning, are you jealous?
Shangguan Ning didnt flush, like she usually did. She moved away from him and said in aposed tone, If you are in love with someone else, we can get a divorce.

Jing Yichens grip around Shangguan Nings waist tightened.
He couldnt believe what he had just heard!
Divorce?
They were married for a month, and he had been trying so hard to not touch her. How dare she talk of divorce?
Who else would love her like he did?
I hope to never hear these words from your mouth ever again. Tiger had just pulled in to Landscape Compound. Yichen carried her into the elevator and all the way home, despite her protests and struggles.
He looked more attractive when he dominated her. As soon as they got home, heid her on the bed and stripped off his coat.
He leaned forward to kiss her, yet she dodged him and turned her head away.
She looked into his eyes and spoke her mind, I know that no one will ever love me like you do. Im so lucky to have met you. Theres one thing I want you to know, though, and that is if you love someone else in your heart, I will not hesitate for a moment, before giving you up, no matter how amazing you are.
Maybe Im too old fashioned, but for me trust and loyalty are the foundations of any rtionship. My marriage has to have both. Love is important, of course, but that willeter. I will never be able to be the third wheel in someone elses rtionship. That, to me, is betrayal and it is uneptable.
Her eyes were the windows to her soul and Jing Yichen could see how wounded and insecure she felt at this moment.
Ning wasnt aware of what hade over her. How had she be so possessive and sensitive? She couldnt help thinking that the rtionship between Yichen and thatdy wasnt a tonic one.
She wasnt like this before. Xie Zhuojun had had many friends. Many of them were women, who would hug him or even flirt with him. Sometimes, even in her presence. Even then, nothing made her doubt their rtionship. She knew that Xie Zhuojun was good looking, and it was normal for girls to shower him with attention. The same logic applied to Jing Yichen. Why then, could she note to ept it?
Hearing her say these words, made Jing Yichen forget his exasperation.
Ning, do you know you are being jealous? My research told me that you were in a rtionship before, but maybe I need to do a new research now, because I dont think that you have any experience in rtionships.
He started to kiss her. He basked in being the centre of her attention. But, baby, your way of being jealous is not correct. It has been so ferocious and fierce that I have be scared. He said as he raised his eyebrows in a self-mocking and helpless way. I havent been scared for a long time, and this feeling is quite incredible for me.
In the future, you can scold me or swear at me, but never ever mention that word. There should be a limitation with jealousy. You cant just leave me because someone sow dissension between us.
He then proceeded to unbutton the next button. He could now see the outline of her voluptuous breasts.
Shangguan Ning moved away from him. She covered her chest in annoyance and embarrassment. She red at him. I am not jealous! You are wrong!
Jing Yichen didnt argue with her anymore. He hugged her and pacified her, Alright, alright, I am wrong. You are not jealous. I am the jealous one, and I have been this way, for a long time.
He kissed her once more. The hand she had used to cover her modesty, was now holding on to him as he kissed her deeper. When his lips touched her skin, she couldnt help but shiver.
Youre hopeless. Move away from me now, she said, blushing.
Jing Yichen caught her hands, and sucked on her vicle, until she had a hickie. He brought his face up to her, so that the tips of their noses touched. Arent you enjoying this? he asked, charmingly.
No, Im not!C she said without thinking.
Jing Yichen wasnt the kind to give up easily. He bit her lips until she cried in pain. You will begin to like it soon
But I dont like it now. Let go of me. You are making me ufortable!C screamed Shagguan Ning.
Jing Yichen rolled her over and propped her up, so that she was on top of him. Shangguan Ning thought to take this opportunity and run away when hisrge hands pressed her down tightly.
Strip me now, quickly!
Shangguan Ning had never met anyone who could be so naughty and so suave, all at once.
She wasnt one to fall for his seductive behaviour. How could she forget that he married her in China, whilst keeping a lover abroad. Why should she allow him to touch her?
She pinched him hard and when he was distracted for a few seconds, making his loosen his grip. She took the opportunity and moved away from him.
She had hardly taken any steps yet, when he grabbed her from behind and pressed her against the wall.
Jing Yichen asked her, And where do you think you are going?
Unable to struggle, Shangguan Ning said spitefully, I am leaving, so you and your lover can live in peace!
Oh God! thought Jing Yichen. This woman was still stuck to the same nonsense.
He then held her close and whispered in her ears, I have never been good at professing my feelings for anyone, but now I have no other choice. Baby, you and only you, are the one for me. There was no one before you, and there will be no one after you. Please dont worry about me betraying you. That will never happen. The woman I got back from America is very important to me. I can give her anything she wants, except for my heart. My marriage to you was not a spur-of-the-moment decision. It is a promise that I intend to honour, for the rest of my life.

Shangguan Ning felt better after hearing Jing Yichens words. She also hoped that their marriage had not been an impulsive decision.
Choosing to divorce was only an extreme solution. She didnt intend to go ahead with it, unless Jing Yichen was in love with someone else.
From the day she met Jing Yichen, her life had never been what it was. The way he pampered her and gave in to her whims and fancies, made her feel so important. Her life had been so messy before him. There had always been so much coldness and fraud that she had be so greedy as to keep the warmth.
He hade into it and tended to her with so much love and care. His dominating nature coupled with the way he loved her, made for a heady concoction. Just when she was beginning to have feelings for him, life had thrown a challenge at her.
For the first time she began to doubt if he felt all this, only for her.
There was another mysterious woman, who still yed an important role in his life, even after ten years of separation.
The confusion in her eyes was so obvious, that it was impossible for Jing Yichen to ignore it.
He was a bit annoyed C she was still sceptical and hesitant, even after he had reassured her so many times. He had had enough.
He suddenly stripped off her clothes with so much passion that her shirt buttons came undone and fell to the floor.
Shangguan Ning covered herself and asked him angrily, What are you doing? Cant we just talk normally?
The lc lingerie that covered hugged her figure, drove him wild. She tried in vain to cover her breasts, and in the process only ended up giving them a push upwards, so they looked even more attractive.
Jing Yichen was turned on and breathed heavily. He held her waist and exined slowly, as he tried hard to control his arousal. Silly girl, why are you jealous of her?
I met her before I married you. If I had indeed fallen for her, I would have married her instead. Id bring her back from wherever she was, even if she were in Mars. I brought her back because I owed her something, which is tooplicated to exin to you now. Ill tell you about it when the time is right, I promise.
But now, my love, we have more pressing tasks to take care of. He said as he stretched out to remove her lingerie, stripping her upper body toplete nudity, exposing her exquisite shoulders and plump breasts.
Shangguan Ning was embarrassed. She flushedpletely and stammered. I... I believe you! But please let me put on some clothes first! We cant have a serious conversation with you doing all this to me...
Jing Yichen smiled. He loved to see her all helpless and worked up.
He finally understood what her drawback was C she wouldnt give in to him, until she was stripped naked!
He felt her perfect body with his roving hands and pinched her breasts gently.
Shangguan Ning kicked and protested, but that didnt work. She even bit his shoulder, when things got out of hand.
Jing Yichen didnt say anything in return but didnt stop also for even for a moment. His hands went to ces that she was too shy to even think of.
Shangguan Ning bit her lip in anxiety and desperation. Just then, his cell phone started to ring.
Saved by the bell C thought Shangguan Ning. Jing Yichen had wanted to ignore the call, but Shangguan Ning kept urging him to not. Your phone is ringing. Answer it please.
He was extremely annoyed at being interrupted in the middle of this steamy afternoon. He pulled out the cell phone from his pocket and was about to switch it off when the name Jing Zhongxiu shed on his screen.
In an instant, his demeanour changed. Ille overC he said, without his father having to say a word.
He hung up impolitely. Then he nted a kiss on Shangguan Nings red lips and said, I will let you go today. I need to see my father so that I can be reprimanded. Looks like Jing Yiran has had a word with father.
Shangguan Ning was thankful that he was going away now. She didnt care what he was going to do, as long as there was some distance between them.
Hands covering her breasts, she allowed him to kiss her without protesting anymore, fearing that he woulde for her again, if she showed him how helpless she really was.
At this moment, Jing Yichen really wanted to carry her to the bed, strip her naked, and take her a few times, but that would have to wait.
He had to deal with Jing Yiran and teach him a lesson he would never forget, so that he dare not try and harm Shagguan Ning ever again.
Nothing was more important than her safety.
He got dressed and Tiger drove him to the Family Jing residence.
The Family Jing vi was located halfway up a mountain, in the outskirts of the city. It ran across thousands of square meters. It was nothing less than a pce C magnificent and strictly guarded.
Although Jing Yichen had barely ever been here, yet the staff of the vi had ensured that they had paved the way for his car.
The moment he entered the house, he heard a woman weep andin.
How can Elder Master be so harsh? He broke Jing Yirans nose, and Yiran has had four stitches on his head. I know that Jing Yichen is your son, but Yiran is your son, too. I have never objected to you favouring him, but one day he will beat Yiran to death, if you dont say something to him now.
The family butler spotted Jing Yichen first. He eximed with joy. Lord! Elder Master is back!
Jing Zhongxius gaze turned to look at Jing Yichen. His face showed no expression. He said softly, Come in. It would be hard to imagine that Jing Zhongxiu was the same person who spoke with Shangguan Ning , with so much love and tenderness.
Seated on the sofa, he looked like an older replica of Jing Yichen. Their expressions, their mannerisms, even their reactions were eerily simr.
Jing Yiran, on the contrary, was the exact opposite of Jing Zhongxiu. Yiran was renowned for his frivolous behaviour and took after his mother, Zhang Rong, when it came to his looks. Right now though, he looked more like a dumpling because of all his injuries.
However, Zhang Rong was charismatic and was very gentle in her demeanour. Jing Yirancked that trait.
Tears trickled down Zhang Rongs face as she was holding her son in arms. Her tone was no longer gentle, like it usually was. It was obvious that she was very upset.
Jing Yiran, though, was oblivious to his mothers agony. He continued to lie down on the sofa and stare at Jing Yichen, mockingly.
Jing Yichen went up to Yiran and punched him. He didnt care that Yiran was already wounded. Zhang Rong watched all this in disbelief. The wound on Yirans head that had just been stitched, cracked open and blood gushed out, staining the gauze wrapped around it.
Jing Zhongxiu had never expected that Jing Yichen would have the courage to punch Jing Yiran, in his presence. He ordered furiously, Stop it!
He loved both his sons. He couldnt help thinking back to the time when Zhang Rong told him that she was with child. Jing Yiran had been an ident. Though he was unruly and uncouth, he was still his son.
Zhang Rong was right. He did favour Jing Yichen more. It could be because Jing Yichen lost his mother when he was little, and also because he reminded him of himself when he was younger.
He had high expectations out of Jing Yichen, and he was sure that his son would achieve them, but that did not mean that he would allow his older son to bully his younger brother in this way.

Zhang Rongs eyes welled up with tears. She held her son in arms and her heart broke to see him in so much pain. She shouted anxiously, Butler! Call the doctor ! Quick ! He is bleeding so much.
The Butler had been a loyal servant of the Jing Family for more than twenty years. When he saw the fight break out, he used his presence of mind and had already called for the doctor. He knew that his master loved both his sons, and if any of them were hurt, he would be stressed.
Zhang Rong was over 40 years old, but her face had been so well-looked after, that she didnt look a day over 30. Her tears somehow made her seem more sympathetically beautiful. She looked so pretty that anyone would want to take away her problems and do anything to make her smile again.
However, all the men in the hall, were indifferent to her beauty, right now. A showdown seemed imminent.
Jing Yiran was in a lot more pain, after being punched again but he didnt show any sign of weakness.
Instead, he continued to provoke Jing Yichen. I am so fond of that Beauty now. I hugged and kissed her so many times. Dont be shocked when she dumps you. You cant me her, now that shes had a taste of me.
Jing Yichen had always been distant and cold but Yiran was instigating him with his words. Jing Yichen was enraged.
He said without emotion, If you dare to touch her again, no one will be able to save you from my wrath. You are still alive, because you are not worthy of my fury.
Jing Zhongxiu hadnt realize until now that the brothers were fighting each other because of a woman!
Shut up now! Both of you! Fighting over a woman? Shame on us, Family Jing.
Jing Zhongxiu had spent half of his life experiencing different ups and downs. He had been an extremely calm andposed man. Only his sons made him emotional.
Neither of them was thoughtful enough to think of their old father. Neither of them saved him any trouble C one was always isted and disconnected from everyone, whilst the other was terribly fickle and went through one woman after another without as much as an afterthought.
If word got out that the two Jing brothers were fighting for a woman, then it would make the headlines of every tabloid in the city.
Although Jing Zhongxiu was livid, his upbringing and experience had taught him to approach every problem with rationale. Whose woman is she, anyway?
Mine! replied the two sons simultaneously.
Ignoring Jing Yirans smirk, Jing Yichen continued. Her name is Shangguan Ning. We are married.
The moment he said these words, the three people in the living room turned towards him in shock.
They had never expected that Jing Yichen would get married, that too without letting them know.
Jing Yiran was dumbstruck. Though Jing Yichen and he didnt get along most of the time, he knew Jing Yichen better than anybody else did. Although Shangguan Ning was a beautiful woman with a pleasant personality, she wasnt so amazing, so as to make Jing Yichen want to spend the rest of his life with her.
He had assumed that Shangguan Ning was an interesting woman and that she mattered to Jing Yichen, but he had never expected that they were married already!
Jing Zhongxiu came back to his senses and asked in astonishment. Her?
As far as he knew, Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning couldnt have known each other for too long. How could they have gotten married so soon?
He didnt expect that Jing Yichen could have done that so fast!
In his heart though, Shangguan Ning had been the girl he wanted as his daughter-inw. Had it not been so, he would have never let her be an assistant to Jing Yichen or asked Lu Qing to teach her everything, in person.
Zhang Rong and Jing Yiran understood from Jing Zhongxius words that he already knew who Shangguan Ning was.
Jing Yiran was in a daze. He didnt know if it was because he was in pain or disbelief.
Jing Zhongxiu interrupted his trail of thought and said, I dont care about you getting involved with any other girl but remember that Shangguan Ning is your sister-inw. If you dare to do anything inappropriate with her in the future, I will disown you!
Jing Zhongxiu then turned towards his older son and said,Why didnt you let us know that you were getting married? Did you n to keep it a secret forever, if todays incident hadnt happened?
Jing Zhongxiu was a strict father and believed in discipline but when it came to his sons love life, he never interfered in it. He wasnt a conventional man. He preferred that both his sons marry a girl they loved. Someone who would keep thempany and be their friend for a lifetime.
But marriage wasnt a rtionship between just two people, it was a bond between the two families.
Although Family Jing was powerful enough and didnt need to establish any marital ord with any family, yet it would be a matter of public ridicule, if the heir of Jingsheng Enterprise didnt even host a banquet to celebrate his marriage.
Bring your wife here tomorrow. We need to discuss the wedding!
Jing Zhongxiu had just finished his sentence when an olddys chirpy voice interrupted.
Whose wife? What wedding?
Mo Lan walked in as she spoke. She was overjoyed at the sight of the sight of her two grandsons. Chen is back!
She then turned around and saw Jing Yirans face. It was wrapped in gauze and caked with dry blood. She asked in concern and annoyance. Ran, how did you get hurt so badly? Who dared to hurt you?
Jing Yiran looked pitiful and pathetically said Grandma, Ive broken my nose and I cant lift my arm. You must avenge my injuries.
Zhang Rong was also crying next to him as she said, Mother, Yiran lost a lot of blood...
Mo Lan was about to say something when Jing Yichen said coldly, It was me.
She became instantly speechless.
It was obvious. Who else would dare to touch the second heir of the Jing Family. It would be none other than the first heir, his older brother.
Jing Yiran had been punched so many times by him when he was little. And he was still punched by him as a grownup. How could this be reasonable?
How can you beat him? He is your brother. It was still eptable when you both were little but now you both are grown men. Please act your age. Mo Lan knew Jing Yirans errant ways and knew that he mustve been up to no good, to have been meted out this treatment by his older brother. But maybe Jing Yichen had been indulged by the family for too long to hit his brother so hard and that too on his handsome face.
Jing Zhongxiu held his mother and said calmly, Its alright, mother. Jiran deserved it. Dont interfere between the two brothers. Just take Yiran upstairs for medical aid.
Mo Lan turned around abruptly and said in bewilderment, What do you mean Ran deserves this? Chen, apologize to your brother! Why have you be so aggressivetely?
Without looking at the olddy, Jing Yichen said to Jing Zhongxiu, When the family is at peace, I will bring her here.
He walked out of the house after saying these words.
Completely confused, Mo Lan asked, frowning, Bring whom here?
His wife. Jing Zhongxiu didnt want to say anything more. He got up and started to walk away.
The Butler, who couldnt understand much of what happened, but recounted what he knew, in the olddys ears.
Mo Lan instantly got so angry that she exhaled. Then she gave a huge p on Jing Yirans back. You bastard! You picked on his wife?

After Jing Yichen left, Shangguan Ning got out of bed and got dressed for work. She drove to thepany.
Although she was Jing Yichens assistant and reported directly to him, she knew that she was constantly judged by so many of her colleagues, everyday. To add to it, Lu Qing too, was a hard taskmaster.
She had used up her lunch break to meet Jing Yiran, and then Jing Yichen ended up dropping her back home. She had overshot the lunch break by more than a couple of hours.
On her arrival at work, Lu Qing chided her for beingte and told her to take her work seriously. They then continued with their research at the Department of Public Rtions.
There were many beautiful girls in this department, because it handled Public Rtions and it was good for thepanys image, if its employees were presentable. Each of these women though, was a curious cat who loved to indulge in idle gossip. She had been asked, on more than one asion, about the nature of her rtionship with Jing Yichen.
The gossip had gradually subsided after they got to know that she was married. But that didnt mean that everybody had lostplete interest in Shangguan Nings personal life.
There was someone who was still gossiping, Mi Xiaoxiao for example, who was her responsible guide at the Department.
Mi Xiaoxiao was 170cm tall, a graduate from a prestigious university and a girl born in a literary family. She had an oval face and a pair of long legs, a wealthy beauty.
She was always bothered about Shangguan Nings whereabouts. She had been in way too many rtionships and wasnt interested in Jing Yichen, but always encouraged Shangguan Ning to meet more people.
Shangguan, why are youte today? Did you have a lunch date with a hunk?
A womans instinct tended to be en pointe, more often than not. Mi Xiaoxiaos random spection had hit bulls eye.
Shangguan Ning relied, Im married. I have no time to date any men.
So youre not dating just because youre married? Let me tell you, men shouldnt be spoiled because they tend to getcent if they know youre totally devoted to them. I loved my first boyfriend unconditionally,but he ended up sleeping with my best friend. And then he med me for being too obedient andcking passion. The bastard!
Shangguan Ning couldnt help thinking how Mi Xiaoxiaos first rtionship was very much like her first. Only their coping mechanisms were different. Both women had their share of trust issues, so while Mi Xiaoxiao kept switching boyfriends, Shangguan Ning held herself from bing too attached to her husband, Jing Yichen.
Mi Xiaoxiaos advice still echoed in her ears. ...you shouldnt let them getcent. You should make your man feel threatened every now and then.
Mi Xiaoxiao continued with her barrage of prying questions. Why is your husband so irresponsible that he has nevere to pick you up from work ? I dont think he loves you. Just get divorced and try to floor the President with your charm. You work with him in such proximity; it should be easier for you than anyone else. You are good-looking, and have a great body. Few men can resist you!
Shangguan Ning had never met anyone who was so bothered about someone elses personal affairs.
Besides, if she got divorced and went after Jing Yichen, she was simply picking up the stones to smash her own feet.
Why dont you try to charm him, if you think the President is such a catch? Shangguan Ning asked Mi Xiaoxiao, in jest.
Me? I cant. I am not his type and he is not my type either. He is too cold. I like passionate men!
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but ask curiously, How do you know his taste?
Its very simple. Opposites attract. He is stubborn andplicated, just like me. What would the both of us do together? He would want to be with someone who was simple and loving.. someone like you. Just like how I prefer men who are outgoing and have a sense of humour.
She had always thought that Jing Yichen was a cold and distant man, but he was actually quite gentle in heart.
But Mi Xiaoxiao had been correct in her overall assessment.
Shangguan Ning chuckled when she thought of Jing Yichens reaction if were he to hear what his employees thought of him.
As they were talking, Ai, another colleague, sprinted in and said, There is a woman outside. She ims to be our Presidents fiance. Shes American and everyone says that our President went to America, to fetch her.
The entire department fell silent.
Shangguan Nings expressions froze and she felt suffocated.
The silence in the officested for a few seconds before mayhem broke out. The staff stormed out of the office so as to take a look at their Presidents fiance.
Within one second, Shangguan Ning and Mi Xiaoxiao were the only two left in the entire Department of Public Rtions.
Mi Xiaoxiao was still shocked by the news they had just heard. She happened to turn around and saw that Shangguan Ning was turning pale. She held onto her and asked, What is wrong, Shangguan? Are you feeling unwell?
Shangguan Ning shook her head in the negative. After a moment of silence, she said in a low voice, as if making a huge decision, Xiaoxiao, lets go and take a look outside.
Seeing Shangguan Nings weird reaction, Mi Xiaoxiao asked her sceptically, Shangguan, I hope you havent fallen for the President?
Shangguan Ning replied calmly, No, I am married. How can I fall for him?
Mi Xiaoxiaos gossip antennae told her otherwise, but she had no time to prod Shangguan Ning. She was distracted by the more striking and attractive gossip of Presidents fiance very soon. The two women ran out and joined the chaos.
The Jingsheng Enterprise lobby was full of familiar faces. Only one face stood out. The woman in question was tall and slender. She had long hair.
Apparently, this woman was none other than the Presidents fiance.
Anna and Cathy, two employees who were lobby managers, were still on the phone. They knew the rules. No one was allowed to visit the Presidents office on the 76thfloor, without prior approval. The visitor couldnt be sent upstairs, even if she imed to be the Presidents fiance.
Out of all the Presidents managers, only Lu Qing was currently in office. Shangguan Ning, who had been the assistant to the President for barely over one month, was standing on the first floor and staring dumbfounded, at the fiance of her own husband.

Shangguan Ning could recognize her as soon as she saw her, even though she stood at a distance.
She was the woman in Jing Yichens work of art but shecked the innocence that the girl in the painting had. She was older now but way more beautiful than the girl in the picture.
The visitor didnt feel out of ce, even when she was in the spotlight and surrounded by so many people. Instead, she waved to the crowd and smiled gracefully.
She looked aristocratic. She behaved exactly how a Presidents wife would behave. She politely nodded and greeted all the employees of Jingsheng Enterprise.
Shangguan Ning was unhappy, but she wasnt the only one who felt this way. Some female employees were so upset that Jing Yichen was to marry soon, that they jeered and swore at thedy. It was hrious to see them behave so irrationally, showing even stronger emotion than Shangguan Ning who was his real wife.
Themotion was getting out of hand. Mi Xiaoxiao jabbed her elbow into Shangguan Nings arm and whispered, Shangguan, dont you think the woman resembles you?
Shangguan Ning didnt speak for a few moments and then said stiffly, No, she doesnt.
Well, I think she does. Both of you are tall, slender and beautiful. You both look gorgeous and give out a vibe that makes you irresistible!
Hearing her words, Shangguan Ning felt that her heart had been soaked in freezing water of winter, chilling fiercely.
Shangguan Ning surveyed the woman standing in the lobby, once again. Her hair fell over her shoulders and she was dressed in a sapphire blue dress, whichplimented her radiant beauty and slender body.
Although she didnt want to admit it, but Mi Xiaoxiao was right. They did resemble each other in their physical attributes.
This realisation made her shiver.
Mi Xiaoxiao, who was still holding her arms, instantly sensed her difort. She couldnt help but ask, Are you sick, Shangguan? You look terrible! I will take you to the hospital. Dont be stubborn.
Shangguan Ning shook her head and said, Its okay. I am fine. Lets just go back inside.
Mi Xiaoxiao had wanted to see how the suspense yed out and if thedy would indeed be allowed into the Presidents office. Shangguan Nings difort forced her to sacrifice her own penchant for drama and apany her upstairs.
Anyway, soon it would bemon knowledge whether or not the President acknowledged her as his fiance through the gossip spread around by the colleagues.
Shangguan Ning felt much better after going upstairs. She sat down and Mi Xiaoxiao forced her to some hot ck tea.
After a while, word was out that the woman wasnt allowed to visit the 76thfloor. Most employees were amused, while the young women were joyous. They all gossiped, wondering what sort of a fiance was this woman if the Presidents personal assistant didnt even allow her to visit his office.
One employee even went so far as to say What is so great about this woman anyway? Shes only marginally better looking than me. How could she be our Presidents fiance? Is there a dearth of pretty looking women in our office? It cant be helped that our President is so indifferent. He has even overlooked Assistant Shangguan, the prettiest employee in ourpany.
If she really was the Presidents fiance then how did she not know that the President was out of office.What a loss of face.
I bet that she is here to show us whos the boss.
While the rest of her colleagues continued gossiping, Shangguan Ning clutched onto the tea cup and didnt get up until she felt better. She walked out of the Public Rtions Department, and went up to the 76th floor.
Apart from Jing Yichen and nine deputy presidents, only Lu Qing and Shangguan Ning had the card to the 76th floor. They were permitted to enter and leave the premises at their own will.
Shangguan Ning was a girl with courage. Her heart was aching fiercely at this moment, but she didnt want to turn a deaf ear to this affair.
After all, even if she couldnt enter this time, Jing Yichen would let her in next time.
She was upset but she had to be professional. She walked into Lu Qings office, and said in a calm tone, Assistant, someone is asking for the President. Shes waiting downstairs. She must be an old friend of the President. Should we let her up?
Lu Qing looked up and couldnt mask his surprise.
How did Shangguan Ning know that Tang Yun was an old friend of Jing Yichen?
She had been gone for ten years and hadnt returned until today. It was practically impossible for Shangguan Ning to know about her. Lu Qing was sure that the President wouldnt have mentioned Tang Yun.
In fact, no one in the entire Family Jing ever spoke about Tang Yun. She was a familiar face, ten years ago but no one knew of her recent whereabouts.
Lu Qing replied indifferently, I have asked the President about it. It is the Presidents order that she shouldnt be allowed upstairs.
This time it was Shangguan Nings turn to be surprised.
Howe?
Didnt Jing Yichen say that no stone should be left unturned, to ensure herfort. Then howe she wasnt allowed to enter the office?
Ignoring her expressions, Lu Qing pulled out a pile of documents from the shelf and handed them over to her. These are the documents that the President brought back from his business trip. Sort them out and put them in order.
Shangguan Ning took the documents to her own office and started to sort them.
She flipped through some pages and was shocked at the contents.
These documents were actually part of a report. They had to do with the main business of Jingsheng Enterprise, based out of Africa. They described in detail, the ongoing crisis that was faced by Jingheng Enterprise. There were notes and remarks on every page. This was Jinghengs writing. Ning could tell because shed learnt at least that much by now.
Many documents bore a date and time stamp. Shagguan Ning could see how hectic his work had been over thest few days. Within a time span of four days, he had visited more than ten countries. South Africa, Namibia, Moro, Zimbabwe to name a few.
She couldnt imagine that he had finished so much work in four days time. He had not only finished reading the documents but had also made notes. For ay man, even reading these documents would take a week, leave alone making notes
It was obvious from these documents that Jing Yichen had slept for only a couple of hours each night. His meal time mustnt have exceeded a few minutes.
He had worked as long as 21 hours, every single day!

When Shangguan Ning reached the end of the pile of papers, she finally put them down. She made a log of Jing Yichens time spent out of office. She also made a log of his phone calls with her.
That was to say, when he had made the call to her, he was still in Africa without that woman.
Time passes quickly when one has a job to do. Hours ticked by. At the end of the exercise, Ning realised that Jing Yichen was in Africa for most of his time away. He mustve been in America for less than half a day, counting travel time to get there from Africa.
She knew that he hadnt even been able to get enough rest during that time. Everyone envied Jing Yichen and his position in the hierarchy, but no one was aware of how hard he worked or how much effort he had to put in, everyday.
Not even his own wife.
Shangguan Ning ran her fingers over Jing Yichens notes. His handwriting.
Soon, it was time to leave for home.
Shangguan Ning put away all the documents, and added a post it at the page from where she intended to continue tomorrow. She pulled out her car and drove home.
She still couldnt get over Tang Yun. Despite having such a hectic time abroad, Jing Yichen still made time to fetch Tang Yun from America. How could he do this to Ning?
Suddenly, a salon caught Shangguan Nings eye, whilst driving. The board outside it read, what he loved was an extraordinary you!
The tall and handsome hairdressers eyes sparkled at the sight of her. He greeted her proficiently, Beauty, what hairstyle do you want? Cutting or perming?
Shangguan Ning stared at her reflection in the mirror, at the hairdressers store. She looked at her long hair, the hair she had lovingly nurtured for many years.
She said lightly, A haircut please.
An hourter, she walked out of the store, and looked nothing short of outstanding.
Shangguan Ning went back to her car and ran her fingers through her bob cut styled hair. She felt weird. She was so used to her long lustrous locks. She had always had long hair since she was little. She had never cut her hair short.
She had thought that she would feel sad, having gotten rid of her long hair. Strangely though, she felt liberated and rxed. She was d that she had had the courage to make this change. The hair touched the nape of her neck and entuated her delicate facial features.
Shangguan Ning was about drive home when she received a call stating that the apartment she bought earlier, had just run into some problems.
The resident living below her apartmentined that water was leaking out of her ceiling , and she suspected that it could be because the water pipe in Shangguan Nings t may have exploded.
Shangguan Ning had not yet lived in the apartment after she had bought it. She realised that she had to go and rectify the problem right away. The water pipes needed to be checked urgently.
When she got there, the repairmen confirmed that there was no issue with the water connection in her house. The pipes were all fine except for an apparent water track on one of the walls.
The repairmen said positively, It is not your water pipe, it should be your neighbors.
Shangguan Ning was relieved.
She was about to leave after she had tidied up the apartment, when someone walked in unexpectedly. In the absence of much else to defend herself, Shangguan Ning picked up a mop. She was startled at the sight of the guest. What are you doing here?
It was Jing Yichen. The moment he saw Shangguan Ning , he was startled too and fumbled for words.
Her long hair had made way for a sharp bob, that went all the way up until her neck. It curled up a bit at the bottom, highlighting her exquisite chin. Her hair had been dyed dark brown and sparkled like silk, in the sunlight.
Why did you cut your hair? asked Jing Yichen curiously. Initially, he was upset that she had let go of her crowning glory but this haircut made her look so fresh.
He stretched out his hands to touch her beautiful hair, but she turned away from him.
Who says I cant have a hair cut, whenever I choose to? Is it illegal? Or is it that it bothers you because you have a fetish for long hair? Shangguan Ning said, in annoyance.
What fetish? Jing Yichen asked.
But he suddenly realized what he was going to say after being stimted by her.
You are getting bolder every day. How dare you leave home? Come home with me, now. Just because you have a new hairstyle, and a new attitude topliment it, dont think you can go around town, doing as you please. Your hairstyle doesnt matter to me. Even if you were to go bald, IEven if you arepletely bald with no hair left, you are still my woman, and you are still living with me!
Shangguan Ning didnt expect this reaction out of him. She didnt think that he would profess his love for her. His words brought down her defences.
Your woman? Just because I spent a few nights with you, I be your woman? I have been with you only for a few months. Maybe youll find someone new and rece me too. Honestly, I just think I should live here. This is my home. Im sure you dont need me, now that there are other people basking in your attention.
She kept mentioning long hair and finally the smart Jing Yichen realized the point.
He immediately asked, What long hair girls? You cut your hair for this? You think that I married you because of your long ck hair?
He pulled out his phone and made a call, speaking discreetly.
Shangguan Ning ignored him, and turned around to walk into the bathroom with the mop.
Thirty minutester, there was a knock on the door. Shangguan Ning answered and found Tiger there. He bowed and handed her a small docket.
She looked at Jing Yichen with scepticism. He said to her, Take it. Its for you.
She took the docket and opened it. In it, she found the ownership papers and the Property Certificate of their home in Landscape Compound. This was the home that she and Jing Yichen lived in currently. She was aghast at what she saw. The house had been transferred to her name. Only hers. Jing Yichen wasnt even the joint owner.
Shangguan Ning stared at this man in front of her. She never intended to leave their home, but Jing Yichen had misunderstood. She was already upset with him and wanted to irk him, so she had continued to y along , just to see what he had to say. But things had suddenly turned serious.
Wasnt he worried that she would sell the apartment and leave after she got the ownership? She wondered how had he managed to transfer the ownership and get all these formalities done, at thiste hour of the day. The Real Estate Bureau wouldve already shut for the day, a few hours ago.
Jing Yichen was leaning against the door and said calmly, Alright, the apartment is yours now. It is your home. You can allow anyone in and drive anyone out. One thing is for sure though.. those with long, ck hair will definitely not be allowed in.They must all get out.
Ning smiled finally. Jing Yichen seized and the moment and asked,Are we done arguing now? Can we go home please? Your home? Will you allow me in?
Well, since the apartment is mine now, we can go home. Shangguan Ning patted the Certificate and walked out one step faster.

Jing Yichen followed Shangguan Ning, out to the lobby. They were both waiting for the elevator to arrive. Just then, the facility manager of the building came up to Ning and said, Miss, your neighbours pipe has been fixed. It was the crux of the leakage on the floor below. I assure you that this incident will not be repeated. Sorry to have wasted your time.
Shangguan Ning smiled and said politely, Its fine! All that matters is that the water leakage issue has been sorted. Thank you!
After the facility manager left, Jing Yichen turned to her with raised eyebrows and asked So you didnt leave home?
Shangguan Ning was about to giggle but suppressed the urge. She said indifferently, Why would I leave when I own such avish andfortable apartment?
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief, secure with the fact that Ning didnt intend to leave him.
He took Shangguan Nings delicate hands into his own.
He said affectionately,Looks like it was a misunderstanding. What a pity that I lost an apartment because of it. Now, tell me, how will you make it up to me?
Shangguan Ning let him hold her hand.
His hands were warm andfortable.
He could have pushed his luck at this moment to see how far she would let him go but she snubbed him almost immediately when she said, Dont worry, I am a very clear-minded woman who can tell right from wrong.
They got into the car and were driven to their home. When they returned to their apartment in Landscape Compound, Shangguan Ning turned to him and said. I left my keys at home. Wheres your set?
What a careless woman!
Jing Yichen let out a sigh as he handed his own key to her.
Shangguan Ning opened the door, walked into the apartment and was about to m the door shut before Jing Yichen coulde in. As he looked at her in disbelief, she continued,
Why do you want toe inside? This is my home. Go away now, and donte back! She dangled the keys in her hand, on purpose. I got my set of keys now, thank you.
Jing Yichen was caught off guard. He was speechless. He had just transferred the ownership of the apartment to her and now she had changed her mind and refused to let him enter his house.
He had just taken an axe to his own leg.
He waited outside for a few moments before pleading to Ning, I am your husband. Your home is my home. Please be kind and let me in.
Shangguan Ning only kept a tiny crack open at the door. She looked at him through it and asked, Oh really? Are you sure youre married? And you have a wife? I think you have it all wrong, because if my memory serves me well, I saw a beautifuldy asking for you, at thepany today. She had long ck hair and wouldnt stop smiling. She said she was your fiance!
Jing Yichen was genuinely startled hearing this. He blurted out, confused, What fiance?
Whom should I ask for an answer to this question, if you dont know the answer? Who else would know about your fiance? To be fair, though, she does look very pretty, and everyone in thepany, including me, was awestruck by her beauty. You two would look cute together!
Shanguan Ning said bitterly.
It started off as a joke, but Jing Yichen could sense that things had turned serious.
Shangguan Ning couldnt keep calm anymore. She tucked her hair behind and ear and said, Go and find your fiance. Im going to bed now.
She banged the door closed without hesitation.
She was afraid that if she saw Jing Yichen any longer, she would definitely end up letting him in. He looked so tired and she knew he needed the rest.
Standing outside his house, Jing Yichen almost broke his nose, when she mmed the door on him. He finally understood why Shangguan Ning had been so bitter all day.
He knew that Tang Yun had visited Jingsheng and even asked for him, because Lu Qing called him and asked him for further instructions.
Lu Qing had only mentioned about Tang Yun wanting to visit Jing Yichens office. He hadnt said anything about her iming to be Yichens fiance! Maybe Lu Qing didnt think it necessary to tell him about it.
Jing Yichen hadnt let Tang Yun in, because this was his ce of work. He was never one to mix his private and professional life. That wasnt the right ce or time to have a conversation with Tang Yun.
Shangguan Ning was the only exception to this rule.
Jin Yich knew that he couldnt put off meeting Tang Yun, for much longer. She had imed that she was his fiance. He felt he owed his staff an exnation. He would have to have an earnest conversation with her someday.
Jing Yichen had no fiance. He only loved one woman, whom he married.
The reason why Shangguan Ning cut and dyed her hair, was clear to him now. It was because of Tang Yun.
He smiled. He wasnt annoyed with his wife anymore.
For him, the fact that Shangguan Ning was jealous, was something worth cheering for.
As for being locked outside the door, getting inside the house was cakewalk.
He walked to the other end of the corridor, stretched out his finger and let his finger stay on a fingerprint sensor, hidden from the public eye. The wall, which earlier had no trace of a crack, opened wide, like a door.
Jing Yichen walked in.
After Shangguan Ning locked out her husband, the President, she had been restless. She kept peeking through the peephole to see if he was still there, when someone patted her on her back.
Shangguan Ning jerked in shock. She turned around and saw the man who was supposed to be outside the door, standing just behind her.
She thought he was a mirage.
She had been guarding at the door all the time and hadnt opened it even once. How did this man get in?
Seeing her look astonished, Jing Yichen carried her in his arms and walked into their bedroom.
Shangguan Ning let out a moan in protest but also wrapped her arms around his neck, subconsciously.
You are so concerned about me getting tired while standing outside, but somehow you still manage to mask your true feelings by an indifferent attitude. You are such a bad actress, my love.
I am not concerned... Shangguan Ning was too stubborn to admit the truth.
Jing Yichen lowered his head and sealed her lips with a kiss. Seeing her blush, he put her down onto the bed.
Standing by the bedside, he unbuttoned his shirt as he said, We are husband and wife and we even have a certificate to prove it. Although you were seriously ill at that time, you still approved the decision to get married. We were registered at the Civil Affairs Office and the marriage certificate is authentic. I even proposed to you, and you epted!
Therefore... I dont have any fiance. What I have is a wife, which is you. You understand that, dont you. If you dare to lock your husband outside the door next time, because of your jealousy, please dont me me for doing what a husband should do.
And yes, your hairstyle looks good. I like it. Do whatever you want in the future with your hair, but dont dye it. Those chemicals arent good for health and they can be harmful to our children.
So, do you think well be blessed with a boy or a girl, after tonight? Or maybe a pair of twins, with one of each?
Shangguan Nings face flushed like a peach hearing him say all this.
He stripped off his shirt and trousers, exposing his muscr chest. She could only admire his surfboard abs and strong legs as he climbed into the bed, with only a pair of underpants on him. She knew it was futile to struggle so she buried her own head under the nketpletely.

Chapter 84: You Are My Wife

Shangguan Ning was strippedpletely naked by Jing Yichen within a minute.
Their bodies were entwined and his hands felt her, all over. Jing Yichen rained kisses on her. His touch on her body made her quiver.
He was careful to be very gentle with her.
He nipped her chin and said to her lovingly, Ning, look at me. I promise that I only love you. And that is why you are here. And that is why you are my wife. Nobody else. I married you because of the person you are. Please remember this, before you begin to doubt me, henceforth. Will you?
Shangguan Ning felt her resolve weaken. Her heart and mind were reassured by his words. Her eyes were full of passion as she became more and more enchanted by him. She still managed to mumble,It is your fault, not mine. She came to thepany herself. Should I have weed your fiance with open arms...?
She looked so endearing and vulnerable, that Jing Yichen couldnt maintain hisposure, any longer. He was aroused like never before and he wanted to take her now.. many times over.
He knew that Shangguan Ning was still upset about the Tang Yun episode,but he really had no feelings for Tang Yun. He hoped Ning would realise it sooner thanter.
I will deal with that matter, baby. Please give me some more time...
He knew that he had to ensure that Tan Yun was looked after. He would never bring her to China and then let her fend for herself. He wouldnt feel better unless he made sure that Tang Yun was happy and secured.
He was aware of Tang Yuns feelings towards him, but he didnt take them to heart. There had been way too many girls before Tang Yun, who had chased after him with equal affection, but he didnt bother about them too. He didnt think it to be necessary. All these things didnt matter if he didnt love the woman.
So he never reciprocated Tang Yuns feelings.. not ten years ago, not ten yearster.
The only person he cared about was Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning felt as if she were floating, after being inundated by his kisses. She had lost the will and the energy to argue with him.
She was a simple girl, but she wasnt stupid.
She already knew by this time that there was no nothing untoward going on between Jing Yichen and Tang Yun. If Jing Yichen really cared about Tang Yun, it wouldve been her at the Civil Registrars Office, not Shangguan Ning. It wouldve been her who would be married to Jing Yichen and not Shangguan Ning. She knew Jing Yichens temperament. If he loved a woman, he would never let her go.
She wrapped her arms around Jing Yichens strong body. Jing Yichen was thrilled that she touched him so sweetly and above all, voluntarily.
He knew that they were finally ready. They were finally at that stage where their marriage could be culminated.
He could no longer hold back. He entered her gently and made her his own, while she moaned lustily.
The following day, Shangguan Nings body clock went for a toss.
Her body clock, which had been unperturbed for so many years, despite injury, sickness, fever or even hospitalization, unexpectedly stopped functioning.
When she opened her eyes, it was already 8:30.
Her first reaction was C oh damn it, I amte!
Then she got up, and was about to get dressed, but the moment she moved, she felt her body revolt. Shecked vitality and was unable to get up.
The man who did the deed, wasnt in bed anymore. She narrowed her shapely eyebrows and uttered shameless bastard, under her breath.
This man didnt know how to care for a woman. It was her first time and there was no way that she could have kept up with him.
He hadnt let go of her until she begged him to stop, numerous times.
What was the point of her being concerned about his health when in reality he was full of vigour and vitality.
She struggled to get up and somehow wore her clothes. She pushed open the bathroom door and walked in.
She slipped and the impact made her fall against Jing Yichens muscr chest, causing the two of them to fall to the floor.
Jing Yichen subconsciously cushioned Shangguan Nings fall, so that he ended hitting the floor while she fell upon him.
Jing Yichen groaned in pain. He said, Ning, if you like it, you can touch it whenever you want, but for now, could you please move. Important equipment is being crushed here.
Shangguan Ning let out a scream and withdrew her hand as if she had been burnt. She flushed totally.
She flushed and exined, Im sorry... I didnt mean to do that!
He was in such pain at this moment that he kept gasping. Shangguan Ning also realized that Jing Yichen had protected her over himself. She went up to him, to help him up but ended up losing her bnce again. She held onto him for support.
Jing Yichen held on to her and refused to let go. He held Shangguan Nings slender waist and whispered, Ning, would you like to do it in the bathroom?
Shangguan Ning flushed instantly and scolded him, Nonsense!
Do you like this position? We didnt try this positionst night, did we? We should try it today...
Shangguan Ning was so shy. She blushed and left the bathroom, refusing to help him up any more.
After they finished tidying up, they walked through the spacious living room, towards the dining room.
Sister Fang, their domestic help, had already served breakfast. She greeted them with a smile, wished them good morning and left them to eat.
The delectable aroma wafted from the food. Shangguan Ning helped herself to a bowl of porridge and had just eaten one spoonful, when Jing Yichen kept a tiny red box next to her.
She put down her spoon and asked in confusion, What is it?
A little something from Africa replied Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning opened it curiously and was immediately awed by its contents.
She usually wasnt as fascinated with rubies or jewellery, as other girls were, but she was somehow enchanted by this present.
It was a monkey, built in gold, and was the size of half a fist. Diamonds were encrusted delicately on its body and tail. Its two eyes were made of rubies. The monkey held a pink diamond, asrge as a pigeons egg, in its mouth. Its features were so intricately carved that the monkey looked life like. It was truly the work of an expert.
It was the first time that Shangguan Ning had seen so many diamonds. She was bedazzled by them.
She put the monkey away, back in the box and rolled her eyes at Jing Yichen. She asked in jest, Did you go to Africa to steal from their diamond mines?
Diamonds are the only things avable in Africa. Not much else. Jing Yichen ate his porridge and said, Im d that you like it. I will bring you a kilo of diamonds, the next time I visit Africa.
Were diamonds measured in kilos?
Even though diamonds were everywhere in Africa, half a kilo of diamonds couldnt be found unless muchbor and energy were spent. This man really dared to make boastful promise!
Shangguan Ning smiled as she said, I never knew that along with being a vulgar tyrant, with a coal- mine owner style in your bones

The biggest advantage of having ones husband as the boss, was that one wouldnt be med for beingte for work. Shangguan Ning was thankful for such small mercies.
Shangguan Ning was also d that Lu Qing, who had always been a stickler for discipline, hadnt lectured her for beingte. That was so unlike him. If anything, he was kinder to hertely.
Shangguan Ning decided not to think too much of it and went to the Department of Public Rtions, to learn its nuances.
Hertest hairstyle had generated a buzz amongst her colleagues.
Within a couple of days, more than half of the women staff at the Department of Public Rtions, switched their hairstyle to the bob that Ning had. Many people had asked her about her hairstylist.
Mi Xiaoxiao tugged her own short hair and smirked at Shangguan Ning. She said enviously, When will my hair grow long? It will take atleast a year before it reaches my neck. Shangguan Ning, this is so unfair. Your face is already so beautiful. Now your haircut adds to it, making you look more attractive. I dare not stand next to you, otherwise Ill bepletely sidelined.
Shangguan Ning grinned. She had never expected that a haircut that she had got done on an impulse, would garner so much attention. She wasntining about her colleagues mimicking her haircut, though, as imitation is the biggest form of ttery.
You are already beautiful, Mi Xiaoxiao.You need not change your hairstyle to get noticed .
Why did you change your hairstyle, anyway? asked Mi Xiaoxiao, her gossip antennae activated. Whose attention do you have to catch ? Is it a new guy? Are you getting a divorce?
There is no problem with my rtionship. Its just a haircut. Lets not make a big deal of it. Many of our colleagues have gotten a haircut recently. Do you think theyre all facing rtionship issues? Shangguan Nings head hurt, having to exin her choices to Mi Xiaoxiao, every now and then.
Mi Xiaoxiao realised that Shangguan Ning did seem to have a point, after all. She didnt pursue this matter any further.
She then jumped to another topic, in a jiffy. I heard that the President has returned from his business trip, but he is not at the office. Do you know where he is?
Shangguan Nings heart skipped a beat, but she said without missing a beat, How would I know where he is?
Aha? Mi Xiaoxiao asked curiously. Arent you the Presidents assistant? You arrange his schedule and you dont know where is he?
Shangguan Ning realized that she had answered too soon, so she exined diffidently, I am his assistant, but he doesnt have to tell me of his whereabouts, every second of the day. Even though I draft a schedule for him, he can make changes to it, if he wishes.
Mi Xiaoxiao continued as though she hadnt heard Shangguan Ning reply. I know where the President is today.C said Mi Xiaoxiao, with pride.
Shangguan Ning was startled and asked subconsciously, Where is he?
Actually, she knew most of Jing Yichens schedule. For one thing, it was because she was his assistant, and secondly, because they discussed their schedule everyday, being husband and wife. Jing Yichen would usually tell her where he went and what he was doing.
Today, she really had no idea where Jing Yichen was.
Mi Xiaoxiao whispered, I happened to see the President at lunch, with his fiance, when I stepped out this afternoon. Look, I even managed to sneak a picture.
She showed her cell phone to Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning told herself that it was just two friends having lunch and it was just tonic.
Yet when she saw the picture, she saw the two of them smiling at each other and enjoying their meal. She felt bitter and jealous.
Pushing away her insecurities, she said, Good picture. You should be part of the paparazzi.
Mi Xiaoxiao ignored her sarcasm and said, If youre interested in him, youd better make your move now. Just make him fall for you before he gets married to his fiancee. That way, you will be the First Lady at Jingsheng Enterprise, and hopefully I will be eligible for a much deserved promotion.
Seeing Shangguan Ning disinterested, she continued C Hes such a catch. If you cant charm your way into his heart, just drug him. You prepare his coffee daily, dont you?
Shangguan Ning who looked depressed a few moments ago, now looked amused and said C
Thank you for your tip. Ill try them someday.
It was now Mi Xiaoxiaos turn to get startled. Try what? she asked.
Drugging him! replied Shangguan Ning with a wink.
...
It was an elegant caf and Jing Yichen and Tang Yun sat there, facing each other.
Tang Yun was dressed in a set of blue casuals, her long hair falling over her shoulders. Her facial features were exquisite and she looked elegant.
She did resemble Shangguan Ning to a certain extent but Jing Yichen didnt find them to be simr at all.
Tang Yun had grown her hair recently. Earlier she maintained shoulder-length hair with a thick fringe. She liked to dye her hair in different colours.
She had changed tremendously in ten years time.
He had hardly been able to recognize her when he went to the USA to get her back.
What did you say, Brother Yichen? You got married? Tang Yuns doe-like eyes welled up with tears and she turned sullen. Then why did you get me back? You know that I will follow you and marry you. You must protect me. You promised that you would protect me, for the rest of my life.
Jing Yichen looked slightly concerned. Tang Yuns words made him worry.
I got you back because I want to offer you a better life. I will keep you safe and secure. If you think that twenty bodyguards are too few, I will provide you with another twenty.
Tears trickling down her cheeks, Tang Yun said angrily, I want none of the bodyguards. I only want you. If you dont agree to marry me, I shall die. I should have died ten years ago.
Jing Yichens expression changed instantly. He was seriously annoyed.

Chapter 86: Tang Yun (Part Two)
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Tang Yun seemed to realize that she had said something wrong. Seeing Jing Yichens cold expressions, she didnt back down but stared at him stubbornly.
Jing Yichens anger inside his heart instantly dispersed seeing that she was pretending to be stubborn although she was scared.
He could be cold and fierce towards everyone, but not with Tang Yun.
He hoped that she would be able to find happiness and live a new life, forgetting the pain of the past.
He was also confident enough that with his present ability, he will be able to keep her safe from anything going wrong.
But he hadnt gotten her back to China to ruin his own marriage and life. If he had nned to marry her, he would not have chosen to marry Shangguan Ning in the first ce.
Everyone thought that he refused to touch women, to be in a rtionship or to get married because of Tang Yun. Only he knew now that it was because he had not met Shangguan Ning.
In order to find Tang Yun, he was away from Family Jing for ten years and drifting around outside home. He had used all of the power he could have.
His father Jing Zhongxiu had thought that he was crazy. He even refused to offer any family help on many asions.
His grandma and grandmother, who were in a cold war for so many years, made peace because of him, only because they wanted to join forces to find him across the entire world and to keep cing women to his side so that he was able to forget Tang Yun.
Him not liking those women was not because of Tang Yun.
That he didnt forget Tang Yun or give up looking for her, had nothing to do with love.
Even if Tang Yun had been a man, he would have still kept on looking for her. But if that had been the case, people would have considered that there was something wrong with his sexual orientation.
For ten years, they had used the wrong methods, thus leading to no achievement at all.
It didnt matter if everyone else had misunderstood him. It didnt even matter if Tang Yun herself misunderstood him as well.
As long as Shangguan Ning didnt, it was fine.
But he felt that a huge misunderstanding might have been created between him and Shangguan Ning.
Because half an hour ago, Tiger had already told him that a woman snapped a picture of him and Tang Yun on the sly, and he even showed the picture of the woman to him.
He knew who this woman was. She was the staff who was responsible for guiding Shangguan Ning at the Department of Public Rtions. She was Mi Xiaoxiao, who had an easy going rtion with Shangguan Ning, as per her own words.
After Mi Xiaoxiao snapped a picture of them, she must have shown the picture to Shangguan Ning. He was clearly able to imagine Shangguan Nings reaction at the moment.
He had received a text of Shangguan Ning a minute ago C you are not allowed home tonight, stay on the street!
A touch of bitterness hovered on Jing Yichens lip. He replied to his wife instantly C the street administers are strict nowadays, sleeping on the street is forbidden.
Tang Yun found that despite her crying and whimpering, and looking pitiful, Jing Yichen not only refused tofort her but also got distracted! What was more, he even had a rare smile on his lips while replying to messages!
She knew that he had always been cold and even ruthless, but she also thought that Jing Yichen treated her differently, at least he would not treat others as gently as he was treating her or show concern and care for others as he did to her!
But it waspletely different now!
It must have been because of his so-called wife!
Bah, she didnt believe that Jing Yichen really liked that woman!
A touch of wickedness shed across her beautiful eyes. She said with an ill intention, Brother Yichen, I want to visit your home. Your wife must be a nice person and I want to meet her!
Jing Yichen rejected without hesitation. No.
Shangguan Ning had already be extremely jealous of him meeting her and she had already driven him out to the street. If he brought Tang Yun home, Shangguan Ning would definitely disappear from his world.
That was the consequence he was not able to ept!
What was more, he had already given the apartment to Shangguan Ning and she should have a say about who could visit the apartment. He mustnt bring anyone home if she didnt like the person.
Besides, he didnt like it when someone came to disturb their lives.
Including Tang Yun.
Tang Yun got instantly unhappy hearing the words. She pursed her lips and said, I will hate her if you dont bring me home! She must be a bad person, a very annoying one! Get divorced now!
Jing Yichens face froze. He said in a distant tone, She doesnt need your fondness. You only need to live a good life yourself, that would be enough.
Tell your guards what you need. They will do everything for you, and dont mess around anymore.
Tang Yun knew what Jing Yichen meant by messing around. He was referring to her visit to Jingsheng Enterprise where she imed that she was his fiance.
She remained unconvinced at the moment. She believed that she was the only one who was qualified enough to marry Jing Yichen in the entire world. Who on earth was the bitch who took up her position and who robbed her of Brother Yichen? She was definitely going to tear her face apart!
She just got annoyed when Jing Yichens cell phone rang suddenly opposite her.
Jing Yichen threw a look at the screen and ignored it with a cold expression.
But the cell-phone kept ringing. It didnt want to stop until he picked it up.
Tang Yun chuckled inside her heart at the sight of Jing Yichens impatience.
It must have been Brother Yichens wife who called. He didnt like her so he didnt want to answer her call.
She was just thinking and suddenly she realized that maybe Jing Yichen married that woman because of the pressure of the family and that woman must been ugly and old with some family money that could help Jing Yichen to some degree.
However, a whileter, Jing Yichen still picked up the cell-phone with a cold expression. He said as if cherishing every word, Yes?
The olddy Mo Lans voice arose from the cell-phone. She ignored her grandsons coldness andined. Why did you wait so long to pick up now? My phone is running out of battery!
I am hanging up if there is nothing else.
No, no, I do have something! You little bastard, I called you because I have something to tell you! Mo Lan said quickly and then said with some awkwardness. Well, it was my faultst time to have scolded you without understanding the entire thing. I promise I will never do that again! Besides, I have scolded Ran fiercely and he is grounded recently for self-reflection.
Jing Yichen replied with a simple ok. His expression didnt ease up because of the olddys apology.
He had run into too many simr things since childhood.
No matter what happened, he would definitely be scolded by the olddy for bullying Jing Yiran.
He never pretended to be pitiful, nor was he bothered to give any exnation. He tolerated all me and lecture in silence no matter which situation he ran into. He never dreamt about getting more care. It would be fine as long as he wasnt med for no reason.
Jing Yiran was always the only one who was protected.
Jing Yichen was already used to the days when he was ignored, which made him get increasingly distant and ruthless.
The olddy didnt stop talking because of grandsons cold behaviour. She still continued with the nagging. You must bring your wife home today for us to take a look! Then arrange the wedding and get us a fat grand-grandson to carry on our family name!

Jing Yichen wasnt moved. He casually said, She has been busytely. She doesnt have time for that.
He then disconnected the call. His parting words to Tang Yun were, Remember what I said. Live your life and you will soon have your own family in the future.
Tang Yun had already overheard Jing Yichens telephonic conversation. She knew that the person on the other side of the call, wasnt Jing Yichens wife. Seeing him leave her, without a touch of hesitation, Tang Yun was extremely upset. She wasnt going to let him get away from her so easily.
At the Family Jing vi, Jing Yiran sneaked out when the olddy was on the phone.
When Mo Lan discovered that he was missing, he was already out of bounds.
When Shangguan Ning finished with work and left thepany, she caught sight of Jing Yiran dressed in a peach suit, holding onto arge bunch of roses, leaning against a brand-new Maserati.
He was a good-looking man, who attracted attention wherever he went. Even now, it was impossible to be unaffected by his charisma. A few women had already gathered where he stood, hoping to catch his eye. They all wondered enviously, who the object of his attention, was.
He smiled and waved at every girl who made eye contact with him. He even made flirtatious small talk with a few, every now and then. For one of them, he pulled out a flower from the bunch that he held, and gave it to her.
The girls giggled in excitement.
Seeing Shangguan Ning walk out of the building, Jing Yiran pulled his sunsses to the bridge of his nose and whistled at her frivolously. He said menacingly, Hey lovely. Care to join me tonight? The bunch of flowers, this car and I, will be at your service. Does that tempt you?
Shangguan Ning ignored him directly and walked past by him as if she didnt know him. Mi Xiaoxiao, who walked alongside Ning,asked her, Shangguan, what is wrong with you? This hunk is staring at you and you are ignoring him ?
Shangguan Ning continued walking and said, Hunk? Where? I see no one.
She didnt speak softly, so Jing Yiran was able to hear it as well.
But Jing Yiran didnt get annoyed. Instead, he smiled charmingly.
Mi Xiaoxiao almost passed out. She couldnt believe how good looking this man was. She grabbed Shangguan Nings arms and said, Oh God, this man is at par with the President in terms of his looks. He looks so tempting. Lets just leave soon before I sumb to his charms.
Shangguan Ning stared at Mi Xiaoxiao in astonishment. She was surprised by how right Mi Xiaoxiaos instinct was.
Mi Xiaoxiao just seen him for the first time. She was taken away by his looks and demeanour, but even then she knew that must not stand around him for any longer.
Ning knew that Jing Yiran was a pervert. It was better to ignore himpletely.
Shangguan Nings car had been sent for maintenance. Just as she was about to get into Mi Xiaoxiaos car, Jing Yiran stood in the way of Shangguan Nings path.
Im not sure, its time for you to leave, just yet.
He said it as he threw a look at Mi Xiaoxiao in the car. With his sexy lips, he spoke in an evil tone, Ha, this girl looks sweet. Maybe we can talk about life someday.
Fearing that Mi Xiaoxiao would interest him, Ning said instantly, Xiaoxiao, you go first.
Mi Xiaoxiao had enough experience when it came to men. She knew that Jing Yiran spelt trouble. Her instinct didnt allow her to leave Ning all alone. She said, No, Shangguan Ning, Ill wait. Lets go together.
There were so many people around. He wouldnt dare to mess with them.
Shangguan Ning wasnt afraid of Jing Yiran. She was just worried about Mi Xiaoxiao and if he would cause her any harm.
She had to lie convincingly. Dont worry Xiaoxiao. We know each other well. Ill be alright. Dont worry.
Mi Xiaoxiao didnt believe her. This man didnt give out a good vibe.
Get in the car, Ning. I cant leave you alone.
Shangguan Ning was moved by her friends genuine concern. She and Mi Xiaoxiao had only been friends for a little more than a month. Although they had gossiped and joked around with each other, here she was willing to stand with her, in the time of need.
The more Shangguan Ning thought about Mi Xiaoxiao, the less she wanted to involve her in all this.
She thought for a moment and said, Just leave. I have called my husband and he is on the way. Besides, I am fine and can take care of myself. Can I not?
Mi Xiaoxiao drove away reluctantly.
As soon she left, Shangguan Nings smile disappeared.
Jing Yiran dumped the bunch of roses, into Shangguan Nings arms. Im so tired of holding them. No more roses for you next time.
Shangguan Ning wanted to throw the roses back at him, but knew better than to do that. She didnt want to instigate this monster any further. She warned him, Your wound hasnt healed yet. If you dont want any more trouble, youd better stay away from me.
Jing Yiran said, mockingly Very good. I like your attitude in the face of danger. That is what makes the kill, more exciting!
Jing Yiraan turned towards Shangguan Ning and ran his fingers over the nape of her neck. He noticed that she had had a haircut. He wanted to feel her hair. It made her look so attractive. I thought long hair suited you, but this haircut is just something else. I had never expected short hair to look so good on you. Tell me, what should I do? I like you more and more, every day.
Shangguan Ning dislike for this man only increased by the minute.
He and Jing Yichen were brothers, but they couldnt be more different. They had no simrities in appearance, nor did they take after each other in personality.
Jing Yiran tried to touch her repeatedly but Shangguan Ning managed to keep her distance.
He looked at her and sized her up. She was slim and tall. Her body hugging uniform only entuated her curves. Her legs were shapely and held such promise. Jing Yiran couldnt help imagining all the things he wanted to do to her. Her brown hair was in contrast with her fair skin. She looked so beautiful but Jing Yiran wasnt new to this. He had seen many beautiful women before. Shangguan Ning wasnt exceptionally good looking, but she wasnt someone you could forget, either.
He got increasingly bolder as time went by. Apparently you are married to each other. That doesnt stop me. If anything, it makes you all the more intriguing to me. Tell me, if you were to ever betray him, would he be so devastated that he would kill himself?

Jing Yiranughed loudly, imagining Jing Yichens fury.
Anything that made Jing Yichen unhappy, gave Jing Yiran immense happiness.
Shangguan Ning knew that this man was psychotic. She tried to keep away from him but when he tried to run his fingers through her hair, she hit him with the only weapon she had, at her disposal C the bunch of flowers.
Jing Yiran felt the thorns grazing against his skin and saw blood oozing out. His eyes were full of anger and hatred. He held Shangguan Nings wrists tightly and said, Dont think that I cant touch you. Jing Yichen cant protect you all the time. Youre not that important to him. Besides, his old love is back in the city and he is busy busy flirting with her. Spend the night with me, otherwise Liyu Science & Technology will be bankrupt by tomorrow!
He had just finished his sentence when a fist hit him on his face. The violent blow made blood gush out of the corner of his mouth. He staggered and fell to the ground.
Jing Yichen, when messed around with, was danger personified. He snatched the roses from Shangguan Nings hands and threw them at Jing Yiran. It seems like I didnt punch you hard enough, the other day. Looks like you still have the gall to mess with my wife.
Jing Yiran was lying on the floor, looking like a mess. He was in so much pain that he dare not get up to face Jing Yichen. He continued to provoke him though. Of course, it wasnt enough. What can you do? Punch me to death? Stop interfering. This woman and I are in the midst of an important discussion. What are you doing here anyway ?Werent you busy dining with your lover? Such a two timer. Do you intend to have more than one wife?
Jing Yichen knew that he was trying to cause a rift between him and Shangguan Ning. So he didnt waste any more time. He just held Shangguan Nings hand and led her to the car. They both drove away soon after.
After Jing Yichen left, some men , who were supposedly Jing Yirans bodyguards, came running towards him. They tried to help him up.
Get away from me! Jing Yiran shouted as he wiped off traces of blood from his mouth. Where were you when I was getting beaten? What is the point ofing here now?
The head of the guards replied CMaster,you ordered us not to help when you were in a fight with the Elder Master, otherwise you would fire us all.
...
Shangguan Ning, who was sitting in the passengers seat of Jing Yichens car, continued to hold hands with him. He was driving the car with his other hand. Jing Yichen was always worked up, when he saw Jing Yiran. After a while, anger gave way to concern and he asked Ning, if she was hurt.
No, you came just in time. If you had spent any more time wooing your fiancee, who knows what may have happened? I might have even chosen to spend the night with that handsome hunk. Such wasted opportunity.
Jing Yichen parked the car to the roadside and looked at his wife. She was still fuming. He held her face in his hands and showered it with kisses.
He then said, softly, Dont joke like this please. You cant be with anyone else. You cant ept any flowers from another guy, let alone spend the night with him. Tang Yun had a misunderstanding. I met her today because I wanted to rify it. She may have said some things without knowing that I am now married.
Shangguan Ning hadnt known the womans name until now.
She said bitterly, Ha, Tang Yun. Such a nice name! You are addressing her so intimately. I remember, someone called me Ms. Shangguan!
Jing Yichen felt a bit helpless. He was addressing Tang Yun just like he would address anyone else. Family name followed by the first name. How was this, in any way, intimate?
When he had addressed her as Ms. Shangguan, it was because they had just met and he did not know her at all. After he married her, of course he addressed her as Ning.
Why did she keep picking on Tang Yun? She didnt react this way when he spoke to any other woman.
He knew he really couldnt get angry with Shangguan Ning, especially after putting her through so much.
Then, I will obey my wife. I will address her in whichever way you want me to. He then took her into his arms and just hugged her.
Shangguan Ning was about to say something as she leaned into his arms, when her cell-phone rang.
She was toozy to move, so she requested Jing Yichen. Please pass me my phone.
Jing Yichen smiled and said, Of course, my love!
Shangguan Ning took the phone and sat up when she saw whom the call was from.
The serious voice of a middle aged man on the other end of the phone said. Ning, where are you? Come straight home, right way.
Shangguan Ning asked indifferently C What is it?
It was Shangguan Zheng C her father, who had called her.
Did you have lunch with the man your Uncle asked you to? Why did he have to say? He has warned us repeatedly that he was going to ensure that we go bankrupt. What have you done to him to have caused this? Go and apologize to him immediately and ensure that every demand that he has, is met.
Although Shangguan Ning did not expect her father to love her, she was still hurt to hear her father say all this to her. It hurt so much that she was finding it difficult to breathe.
Jing Yichen heard everything her father said. His heart went out to Shangguan Ning. He could feel her pain.
He held Shangguan Ning in his arms,and said to the person on the phone, If the people of A City woulde to know that their Deputy Mayor is a man who sells his own daughter in order to sustain his business, then they would never pick you as their representative. You should actually be disqualified from holding any post in the government.
Shangguan Zheng was startled at being spoken to, in this way. Who are you and why are you eavesdropping on our conversation? This is between me and my daughter.
Jing Yichen sneered coldly. He continued speaking, Shangguan Ning will not have lunch with anybody. Yourpany will not go bankrupt tomorrow; Ill see to it that it goes bankrupt tonight. For now, Im letting you go with a warning. From this day on, you must not bother her. She doesnt owe you anything.
Having said this, he hung up. He then took her into his arms and said lovingly, It is ok, Ning. You need not worry as long as I am here.
Shangguan Ning had never cried, even though her father had let her down repeatedly, in the past. But today her father had hit a new low. Her tears rolled down after seeing Jing Yichens concern, she could not hold back any longer.
She buried her face in his broad chest and sobbed like a child.
After she was done, she wiped her face and cleared her throat. She realized what Jing Yichen had just said to her father. She turned to Jing Yichen and said, You cant harm Liyu Science and Technology. It doesnt belong to my father. It is my motherspany.
Jing Yichen wiped her tears gently and said, softly, I know. I intend to take over it and let you run it.

Chapter 89: Taken Advantage of
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Sitting in his study, Shangguan Zheng was both astonished and outraged, after disconnecting the call.
He was the Deputy Mayor of A City, and someone just dared to threaten him!
He was med for using his daughter to salvage hispany but wasnt it his daughters duty to save her fatherspany? Wasnt it her obligation to help him, in time of need?
Liyu Science & Technology had grown exponentially. It generated hundreds of millions of yuan in profits, annually. His share was a staggering fifty percent. How could he just be an innocent bystander while thepany fought its way to stay afloat?
He wasnt sure who that man on the phone was. He sounded so proud and didnt have any manners. How dare he tell him to quit the political arena? Shangguan Zheng wasnt one to be easily threatened. He had been making the rounds of political circles, for years now. He had seen too many ups and downs in his political career, to pay any heed to adviceing from a novice.
He was more upset with his own daughter. How could she discuss personal family affairs with an outsider? He had just pampered her too much, when she was younger. Maybe thats why she was so spoilt now.
Shangguan Zheng suspected that the man who spoke with him today, must have been the man they ran into at the beach in N City. He had been so full of himself, even back then.
Shangguan Zheng knew that this man was someone powerful. Honestly, it didnt matter who he was. All that mattered was that Shangguan Ning stay away from him. He would never allow his own daughter to be with a man who didnt respect the seniors.
He left the study on the second floor and went downstairs to the living room. Seeing his wife, daughter and future son-inw chatting animatedly over cups of tea, elevated his mood. He was still not over this man, though.
Shangguan Rouxue looked up at him and smiled sweetly. Daddy,e and have some tea. Zhuojun has just bought you Oolong, that you enjoy so much!
Shangguan Zheng felt much better already. He nodded at Xie Zhuojun, in a show of gratitude and then turned to Shangguan Rouxue. Xue, get your sister back home tomorrow. She is a single girl living all by herself. What does she think? Does she never want toe back home? Let me know if that is the case. Then I will disown her and think that I have always had only one daughter.
Xie Zhuojun stiffened up at these words. Shangguan Ning had kept everyone in the dark,about her marriage.
What a ruthless woman! She had not only hidden her marriage from the world, but also kept it from her own father.
No one knew what had caused this sudden change in Shangguan Zheng. His expression was enough to dissuade anyone from asking him for any reasons, though. Yang Wenshu noticed that something was not right. Shangguan Rouxue smiled at Xie Zhuojun and said Zhuojun, lets go and get Sister home tomorrow.
Xie Zhuojun saw Shangguan Rouxue and couldnt help but feel sad for her. He agreed to go with her but he knew that the entire exercise would prove to be futile. He knew that Shangguan Ning wasnting home.
He still wanted to meet her and ask her why she chose to marry someone else..why did she hide it from him..? Did she marry someone else, in order to spite him?
The following day, Shangguan Ning didnt finish her work until 8 in the evening. By then, everyone else in thepany had left already. She was about to leave the office premises when someone stopped her.
Shangguan Rouxue grabbed her arms and said chirpily, Sister, we have been waiting for you for so long. Finally, youre here.
Shangguan Ning pulled out of her grasp and said, coldly, Please stay away from me, or you will hurt yourself again, somehow. Then your man will assume that it is me who hurt you. I am not interested in doing this little show with you again and again!
Shangguan Rouxue stiffened. Her tender face that was happy a few moments ago, turned sad. She mumbled, Sister, please dont say all this. It upsets me to hear you speak this way.
Xie Zhuojun, who was standing beside her, felt anger rise inside of him. Innocent Xue had done nothing wrong except speak to her sister with love.
Ning, why cant you just talk normally? What did Xue do for you to be so cruel to her?
Shangguan Ning turned to him and smiled mockingly. I didnt do anything wrong too, but you were still so cruel to me, werent you ?
Xie Zhuojun was lost for words. He then realised that Shangguan Ning had had a haircut. Why? Why had she cut her beautiful hair?
She had been sporting long hair, since she was a little girl. She had cherished her hair so much. What must have made her want to cut it?
It is said that women generally have a hair cut to signify a huge change in their life. Was she trying to start anew by getting rid of his presence in her life?
Besides, she had never dyed her hair before. Now it was a fashionable shade of brown instead of ck. This was so unlike her. She was not the Shangguan Ning he knew before.
What he couldnt deny though, was that she looked even prettier now. So pretty that he couldnt look away from her. Her hair framed her delicate facial features perfectly. She looked fresh and even younger than before.
On her ears, he spotted exquisite solitaires. They made her look so elegant. She had never been into jewellery. In fact, she had never worn any jewellery before. All these were subtle changes but they did not miss his eye. She had changed so much.
Seeing him stare at Shangguan Ning speechlessly, Shagguan Rouxue felt strangely possessive. She held his arm and said to him, Zhuojun, please tell her what Daddy said. She doesnt seem... to want to forgive me. I am so afraid that anything I say, will annoy her further.
Xie Zhuojun came back to present reality and held Shangguan Rouxue. He exined, Ning, Uncle is worried about your safety. It is unsafe for you to live all by yourself like this. He wishes for you toe back home. Pleasee back home with us. Wont it be nice to live with your family, once again ?
Shangguan Ning really wanted tough out loud but held herself back.
Home? Was that even her home?
Worried about me? Shangguan Ning sneered. She tried suppressing her anger but to no avail, No one was worried about me when I was living alone, abroad, for four years. But now when thepany is almost bankrupt, he suddenly starts to worry about me? Is he worried about my safety or about my refusal to sleep with the person who holds hispany to ransom?
Xie Zhuojun had no idea that Liyu Science and Technology was going through such major problems. He was shocked by Shangguan Nings words and asked, What do you mean? Your familyspany has run into financial problems?
Shangguan Ning realised that Xie Zhuojun had been taken advantage of, again. He had been dragged into the matter without even understanding what was going on.

Shangguan Ning said in annoyance, Everyone around you has kept you in the dark. They know everything but they have chosen to not tell you about it. Just look at Shangguan Rouxues expression and you will know what I mean.
Shangguan Rouxue panicked but recovered in a few seconds. She held on tight to Xie Zhuojuns arm. Zhuojun, I really dont know anything about all this. Daddy never talks about work problems, in my presence. Sister, you must have misunderstood him, Daddy isnt like that. He has always loved you so much!
Xie Zhuojun caught the change in Xues expressions, but he still believed what Xue said C Shangguan Ning must have misunderstood Deputy Mayor Shangguan.
Ning, it was my fault all those years ago, because of which youve had to suffer. Please dont me uncle for my mistake. Uncle Shangguan is your father, and he will never hurt you. Xue has always felt guilty and so she keeps ming herself for whatever happens to you.
Earlier, Shangguan Ning had thought that Xie Zhuojun was naive and soft-hearted as he was easily influenced by others opinions. Now she realised that he was simply stupid.
She felt that she was lucky that Shangguan Rouxue caused her engagement with Xie Zhuojun to break off, otherwise, she would have to live in pain for the rest of her life.
Thest bit of unhappiness in her heart, of being robbed of her fiance, was gone. She was now free of all bitterness
Please tell me if you had a sister, would you want her to marry a man who was a vegetable? If you had a brother, would you fall in love with his wife and have sex with her, in front of your brother?C she asked Xie Zhoujun, earnestly.
Xie Zhuojun was furious. He bellowed, What nonsense are you talking about ?
Shangguan Ning wasnt annoyed. Instead, she said in a very calm tone. See, that is what my dear father and my kind-hearted sister did to me. You agree that all this is impossible to ept, right? But I have had to ept all of this.You still think I owe them something?
Xie Zhuojun felt ashamed, as did Shangguan Rouxue. Her face was pale and tears rolled down her cheeks. Sister, it was all my fault. I was too young and na?ve. The moment I met Zhuojun, I fell in love with him. I did not have the sense to differentiate between right and wrong. He became my one and only. What I did to you was a terrible thing. I felt so guilty about it that I even thought of taking my own life. If you dont forgive me, I have no reason to live...
Saying these words, Shangguan Rouxue ran towards the sea nearby.
Xue,e back! Dont do anything stupid! Xie Zhuojun shouted. He ran after her to stop her but not before chiding Shangguan Ning. I am so disappointed with your behaviour.
No sooner had Xie Zhuojun left, than Jing Yichen came to her.
He stared at the two disappearing silhouettes with a cold expression. He went up to his wife, held her by her waist and asked, What happened? Who is worrying you?
Shangguan Ning, hugged him. She sighed and exined, No one. It is I, who has caused all this. I have made my sister want to take her own life, while I just chose to stand by and watch. Your wife is such a ruthless woman. Is she not ? Dont you wish you had chosen someone else to get married to? Someone more considerate. Someone with long ck hair.
Jing Yichen thought that if Shangguan Ning went on with her snide references to Tang Yun, he would have to stay away from all women who sported long ck hair.
He held her soft little hands with hisrge hands and pulled her into her white Audi car.
He held her hands in his, and said,I dont care who jumps into the sea, as long as it isnt you. You are not ruthless. You are just standing up for yourself. I am happy about that. Its about time too. Remember one thing, if anyone bothers you, just let me know. I will ensure that they definitely jump into the sea. You dont have to waste an ounce of your energy convincing them to do so.
Shangguan Ning chuckled. She felt warm and secure when Jing Yichen was around her.
President, I am such a hard worker. Look, I was in office, even at this hour. Dont I deserve a bonus?
Jing Yichen leaned forward and gave her a kiss. He asked mischievously, Does this count?
Shangguan Ning blushed. She turned around and was about to scold him for taking advantage of her, when their lips touched because of the close proximity between them.
Jing Yichen instantly took her into his arms, and he said with a smile, Looks like you approve.
Then with hands roving all over her body, he kissed her passionately.
In the meanwhile, Xie Zhuojun was drenched, carrying an equally soaked Shangguan Rouxue, whom he had rescued from the sea. She was unconscious. At a distance, he saw Shangguan Ning get into a white Audi, hug a man and drive away into the sunset.
Seeing the car drive away, he felt as if all energy was sucked out of him. All of a sudden, Shangguan Rouxue felt so heavy in his arms.
He stood there, oblivious to the fact that Shangguan Rouxue was twitching.
When Xie Zhuojun brought Shangguan Rouxue back to Family Shangguan house, Shangguan Zheng and Yang Wenshun were shocked. They asked him so many questions about what happened to their daughter.
Shangguan Zheng was so livid with both of them. As soon as Shangguan Rouxue regained consciousness, he said, You and Zhuojun are old enough now. You two should get engaged. You can invite your sister too, if you wish.
Yang Wenshu was annoyed with her husband. Instead offorting Shangguan Rouxue and asking her how she felt, Shangguan Zheng had brought up the topic of their engagement. This wasnt the time or ce to talk about marriage.
She had a nagging doubt, in the back of her mind, that her husband wished to get Shangguan Rouxue engaged only so that he could use it as an excuse to invite Shangguan Ning, back to the house.
She chose not to say anything to her husband, because she didnt want to annoy him any further.
Besides, it was a good thing if her daughter did get engaged, after all. What was the use of Shangguan Rouxue following Xie Zhuojun like a puppy, if nothing came out of it.
She stole a nce at Xie Zhuojun. He seemed distracted. He didnt look happy, like one would, if they were to get engaged to the person they loved.
On the other hand, Shangguan Rouxues pale face broke into a smile. She tugged onto Xie Zhuojuns sleeves and said, Are you happy, Zhuojun? We are getting engaged!
Xie Zhuojun,who was lost, came back to reality. He pushed away all his doubts and insecurities for now. He forced a smile and said, I am so happy. Dont worry, Uncle and Aunt, I will treat Xue well. She will definitely be the happiest woman in the entire world.
It was so easy for him to fake it. It just came to him naturally now. It was easy for him to fool the rest of them but he knew in his heart, that he did not mean any of the things he had just said.

Chapter 91: The Engagement Party (Part One)

Xie Zhuojun spent most of the evening at the Shangguan household and didnt return to his own house, until veryte at night.
For some reason, Shangguan Nings words kept him pre-upied. He couldnt stop thinking about what she had said.
Everyone at Shangguan Family knows everything, and they have chosen to keep you in the dark about this..
If you had a sister, would you want her to marry a man who was a vegetable...
Would you fall for his wife and have sex with her, in front of your brother...
He had been looking forward to marrying Shangguan Rouxue. Shangguan Zheng had given them his blessings to go ahead and get engaged. He asked himself, why was he still unhappy?
After Xie Zhuojun left, Yang Wenshu continued to keep Shangguan Rouxuepany. She was distraught, seeing her daughter this upset.
She took her daughters hands into hers. The gentle demeanour that was integral to Yang Wenshu, disappeared. She asked her daughter, Xue, is there a problem between you and your Zhuojun? Has he started to like the bitch, Shangguan Ning, again?
Shangguan Rouxue shivered at the words her mother used. She shook her head in the negative. No, we are doing just fine. Didnt Daddy just say that we are getting engaged? Dont worry mother, I will be the one to marry him and no one else!
A weekter, Xie Zhuojun and Shangguan Rouxue were engaged and they threw a party at the most luxurious five-star hotel in A City, to celebrate their engagement.
Since there was hardly any time for preparation, many rtives and friends were unable to grace this asion with their presence. They would make it to the wedding instead, they promised. The ones who made it to the engagement party were all celebrities in their own right and the celebration was a huge sess.
Xie Zhuojun delivered the invitation to Shangguan Ning, in person.
Her first impulse was to just throw it into the dustbin. After thinking for a while, she decided otherwise.
She sneered. Her ex fiance was getting engaged, to her sister. How dare he even send her an invite, in the first ce! How cheeky of him.
They had been provoking her far too many times. They refused to let her move on with her life. She had decided that she would go to the engagement party after all, and make it an unforgettable affair for everyone present.
The engagement banquet started at 7, but most guests arrived earlier. Whether they did this for the sake of the bride and groom or for the sake of Shangguan Zheng, who was going to be the next Mayor, was anybodys guess.
Dressed in a red strapless custom designed outfit, Shangguan Rouxue waved at the crowd that hade to greet them. She held hands with Xie Zhuojun, who was equally well dressed, in a designer suit.
Together they made for a fine couple. Their marriage marked an amalgamation of two powerful families of the city. The bride was the daughter of the Deputy-Mayor. She was beautiful and excelled at everything she pursued. She was also a popr television hostess. The groom, was the heir to the Family Xie Enterprise. He was handsome and suave, gentle and wealthy.
They were so treasured couple and looked extremely cute together.
Everyone congratted them. Even Xie Zhuojun was starting to feel better.
Xie Zhuojuns mother Wang Lu and father Xie Dongfeng, were sitting in the front row. Although they were both wearing happy smiles, they were upset over the way they had been treated.
The engagement party was done in such a hurry and they were never consulted. Shangguan Zheng was so bossy that he fixed the date and told Xie Zhuojun about it.
He didnt consider Family Xie important enough to check with them.
He had forgotten that it is was only due to the indirect funding, made by Family Xie, all those years ago, that he had be deputy mayor. Their connections and efforts brought him the support of the people. Without Family Xie, Shangguan Zheng would never have achieved political sess.
Now that Shangguan Zheng was on the verge of being elected Mayor, he had forgotten to give credit where it was due. Family Xie had never felt as insulted as they did now.
They were lucky that their daughter-inw was this good-looking and so resourceful. They thanked their stars that she was gentle, kind-hearted, understanding and deeply in love with their son. She also respected them. What more could they ask for?
Family Xie, knew in their hearts that it was only because Shangguan Ning had agreed to marry their vegetative son, that they had invested funds into Shangguan Zhengs election campaign. Shangguan Ning was willing to sacrifice her life by choosing to spend it with their son who was then, ina. When their son woke up, it was nothing short of a miracle. They conveniently chose to forget all the promises that they had made to Shangguan Ning. They abandoned her without a moments hesitation and preferred that their son marry Shangguan Rouxue.
As the guests arrived one after another, Shangguan Zhengs eyes were glued to the entrance. He was anxiously waiting for Shangguan Nings arrival.
He hoped that Shangguan Ning would make it for the engagement. It was doubly advantageous to him. Not only was it good for his personal image but he would also be able to convince Shangguan Ning to save Liyu Science & Technology.
Many people had assumed that Shangguan Zheng was the obvious choice for the post of the mayor, at the next election. Shangguan Zheng knew that this was only the peoples perception. The higher ups in the political circles, didnt fancy him too much. He needed urgent help in that regard.
He wasnt too fond of his daughter, Shangguan Ning, but somehow her presence always brought him good luck. Whenever he saw her, he was reminded of his dead wife, Huang Liyu and the night when her blood had flowed in the vi.
Huang Liyu loved him deeply. She was devoted to him, all her life. Her death was a thorn in his heart. As time went by, he had hoped that this wound would heal, but that was not to be. Instead it hurt him even more now.
Luckily, he had met and married Yang Wenshu. She was kind and gentle, generous and virtuous, as a wife. To some extent, he had been able to get over the death of his first wife, only because of the love of his second.
Shangguan Zheng impatiently took a bite of the crystal shrimp his wife had served him, when his cell-phone rang.
He nced at the number shown on the screen, instantly got up and left the table. He pushed opened the doors of the banquet hall and answered the call in the adjoining meeting room.
Deputy-Mayor Shangguan, I hope to see your daughter within the next half hour. If she fails toe and see me, you can bid goodbye to both yourpany and the Mayors post.C said the voice on the other end of the line.
Shangguan Zheng shuddered at the threats being thrown at him. He remained calm though. After all, he hadnt achieved so much in his life, by being submissive to others, in times of adversity. You have my word but I need to have your word too!
Of course, you have my word. The rest depends on you! The call was then disconnected.
Shangguan Zheng was annoyed that he had to give in to someone elses demands. He had no choice in this regard though, because the person in question was the second in line to the throne of Jingsheng Enterprise. He was not only wealthy and powerful but also a ruthless business rival. Jing Yiran was reckless and inconsiderate in his behaviour, but Shangguan Zheng had to tolerate that.

After speaking with Shangguan Zheng, Jing Yiran dialed another number.
Shangguan Xing was useless in therger scheme of things, so he had to speak with Shangguan Zheng instead. These two brothers had been making empty promises that Shangguan Ning would never let Liyu Science & Technology go bankrupt. She would definitely save thepany, no matter what. Shangguan Ning proved to be a strong contender. She refused to give in to these threats. In fact, Jing Yiran himself had run into trouble on her ount.
Luckily, he was smart enough to have thought of this devious scheme.
He then proceeded to make a call which was declined. A momentter, he received a text from an unknown number : How may I help you, Second Master?
He was impressed. This girl was a professional. Not only was she careful enough to not answer his call, but she was also cautious enough to text him back from an unknown number. She must be good at conducting shady deals like these.
Sitting in his luxurious Lamborghini, Jing Yiran replied, You really are your fathers daughter, after all. You both are as ruthless as each other. He doesnt think twice before using his daughter as bait to save his business, and you dont think twice before you can put your sister into trouble. My respect for you has gone up a few notches.
Im impressed with you too, Second Master, though I am no match against you.
Jing Yichen smirked at the sight of the message. He replied, The old man will get some benefits after I get the girl. I wonder about you, though. What do you get from this? How do you benefit? Anyway.. dont intoxicate her too much. I like it when she protests!
Okay.C was the reply.
...
At the banquet hall, Xie Zhuojun was a little annoyed with Shangguan Rouxue. She kept looking at her phone and was busy texting all the time. Xue, what are you busy with? You missed my mothers toast.
Shangguan Rouxue looked up in panic and smiled. Oh... its nothing really. Just some old friends, sending in their congrattory messages on our engagement. I was just replying to them all. Im so sorry to have been this distracted. Id love to hear what Aunt said.
Hearing this, Wang Lu turned her face away.
Xie Zhuojun understood that his mother was upset. How could she repeat her toast? It was so heartfelt. He didnt want to make things any worse than they already were, so he bent in and whispered to Shangguan Rouxue,My mother just said that you neednt call her Aunt anymore. Its sad that you missed everything she said.
Shangguan Ning immediately pulled out the brand-new sim card from her mobile, threw it at her feet and crushed it.
She bit her lip and said shyly, after a while CDad, mom.
Wang Lu and Xie Dongfeng finally smiled. They presented their to-be daughter-inw with a small present in a red packet. This was a custom that they followed, whereby the daughter inw was given an amount of money, when she addressed her inws as her parents, for the first time. It signified that she was now part of their family and they in turn, would love her like their own daughter.
Shangguan Rouxue blushed. She took the present and handed it over to Xie Zhuojun. Zhuojun, please put it away for me, will you? she said shyly.
Xie Zhuojun took it with a smile and said gently, Okay, Ill do that.
Wang Lu was now sure that Shangguan Rouxue was the right girl for her son. How nice of her to give the money to Xie Zhoujun, to take care of.
Everyone around the table was very happy for the couple, except for Shangguan Zheng, who seemed distracted.
He took a sip of red wine and asked Shangguan Rouxue, who was sitting next to him, Where is your sister? Didnt I ask you to personally deliver the invitation to her?
Shangguan Rouxue replied, reassuringly,Dont worry, Daddy, Sister will be here. She epted Zhuojuns invitation.It is our engagement party and she will definitely join us soon. Right, Zhuojun?
Xie Zhuojun nodded. Yes, she will be here.
Although he sounded quite certain, he wasntpletely confident. When Shangguan Ning epted the invitation, she didnt say if she would be attending. It had already been a few hours since the party had started. It seemed unlikely that she woulde now.
As if on cue, he looked up and saw Shangguan Ning push open the door and walk in.
She was dressed in ck skirt and a white blouse. She wore a deep purple coat to go with it. Her attire and her new haircut, made her look sharp and fashionable. She was inplete contrast to the Shangguan Ning who followed him everywhere, like a lost child, all those years ago.
Xie Zhuojun realised that she hade here directly from work. She hadnt bothered to change into another set of clothes even. It showed how little she cared about the party, and about the hosts.
He wasnt sure what was happening to him. That she didnt care about him, was exactly what he had always wanted, wasnt it? Then why did he feel so terrible about it, now that it had finally happened.
When the crowd saw Xie Zhuojun staring at the gate, they followed his line of vision and noticed Shangguan Ning, immediately.
It was difficult for them to not notice someone this pretty.
Some guests knew her but most of them didnt.
Xie Zhuojun overheard them whispering amongst themselves. They wondered who this good looking girl was and why had she arrived at the party, just when it was about to get over.
Thats the Deputy-Mayors daughterC said one of them.
Isnt Deputy-Mayors daughter, Shangguan Rouxue? I didnt know he had another daughter.C replied someone else.
Ah, you are ignorant. Shangguan Rouxue is Deputy Mayors younger daughter and this is his older one. She is his child from his ex-wife. I think her name is Shangguan Ning. Im not so sure though...
People talked as they surveyed Shangguan Ning, from head to toe.
Shangguan Ning was not bothered about being judged. She walked straight to the table where the couple and the family were seated.
Shangguan Rouxue stood up happily and grabbed hold of her sisters arms, Sister, youre finally here! I thought you wouldnte. Im so d that you are here. Our whole family is together now.
Shangguan Zheng let out a sigh of relief, at the arrival of his daughter. He finally rxed.
Although he knew that Jing Yiran was upto no good, it wouldnt be such a bad thing if Shangguan Ning married him. She would be part of a wonderful family and he himself would be the next mayor. What an excellent proposition. Two benefits out of one action.
Thinking of this, he stopped feeling guilty for what was going to happen tonight. Instead, he conditioned himself to think that he was actually doing his daughter a whole lot of good by marrying her off into such a prestigious family.
Shangguan Ning ignored Shangguan Rouxues fake show of affection. She said to her, Shangguan Rouxue, your mother robbed my mother of her husbands love and affection. She drove my mother to take her own life. Then, yearster, you robbed me of my fiance, chose to get engaged to him and then you were cheeky enough to invite me to your engagement party even. Are you trying to drive me to insanity as well? We are such a loving family, are we not?
She was audible enough for most people to be able to hear her. Eventually, the entire banquet hall fell silent.

Shut up, Shangguan Ning! It is your sisters engagement party. This is not the time for you to make a fuss! Now join us at the table, like the rest of the family, and spare us your sob stories. Shangguan Zheng was furious.
The vein on his forehead was throbbing and he couldnt control his temper after the way Shangguan Ning had behaved.
His reputation was extremely important to him. He was very cautious about the fact that the media would catch a whiff of a possible scandal and his election as mayor may then be in jeopardy.
How dare Shangguan Ning make a spectacle out of him in the public eye? He wished she would leave this very minute.
Shangguan Rouxues face turned pale. With tears in eyes, she said sadly, Sister, the death of your mother has nothing to do with my mother. Please dont me her. Please me me, as it is me who has wronged you. My parents havent wronged you.I wish you could forgive me. I would do anything for your forgiveness. If that means that I have to die even, I would dly do it.
Shangguan Ning remained unaffected. You wish to die? What for? That would be like taking the easy way out. In my head, youve already died a million deaths. If you really want me to forgive you, then there is just one thing that you can do. Dont marry Xie Zhuojun. That is all. Thats not too much to ask for.
Sister, I... Shangguan Rouxue was about to say something but stopped. Tears trickled down her face.
Some guests were genuinely concerned, while some of them were just watching the drama unfold. Most guests didnt know that Xie Zhuojun had once been engaged with the Shagguan Zhengs elder daughter a few years ago, and was now getting engaged to the younger one.
Shangguan Ning had seen her put up this show too many times. Without further ado, she asked Shangguan Rouxue,You cant do it, right? You cant leave him? Then dont act like a martyr. Stop this show that you put up every now and then, when you say that you will be willing to do anything.
Having said what she had to Shangguan Rouxue, she turned to Family Xie.
Mrs. Xie, how much do you think is your son worth ? How much should I pay you aspensation, so that his life belongs to me?
Wang Lu didnt expect Shangguan Ning to talk to her in this way. She found her offer absurd to begin with. She snapped at Shangguan Ning, My sons life cant be measured in money. It is priceless ! I will never sell him to you no matter how much money you offer me. He is my treasure and you dare noty a hand on him.
She stood up immediately, as if fearing for her sons life.
Without blinking an eyelid, Shangguan Ning said coldly, Priceless treasure? Okay then, I wont ask for much. Just 1 billion yuan to start with. Give me the money so I can leave.
Wang Lu was startled and eximed, What one billion yuan are you talking about ?
Oh, its sad that Mrs.Xie seems to be losing her memory. It is okay, just lets do a quick recap. Seven years ago, your son Xie Zhuojun had a car ident and became a vegetable. A fortune teller told you that I would bring him good luck. So you forced me to get engaged with him.
I took care of this man for more than two years and he finally woke up. At that time you abandoned me. He had fallen in love with someone else but what about the promises that you made to me? What happened to your morals then? Anyway, there is no point in discussing all this now. Give me the money and I will leave you in peace.
Guests started whispering amongst themselves.What was Shangguan Ning talking about?
Wang Lu was startled by Shangguan Nings words.She was furious. She eximed, One billion! Youd rather rob the bank.
This girl was unbelievable!
One billion... most families could only dream of amassing this kind of wealth. Family Xie owned a lot of properties, even then they hadnt been able to umte that amount. Only few families in A city, could boast of having a worth of more than a billion yuan.
What was more, Family Xie didnt request Shangguan Ning to marry their son without amplypensating her. They had spent a great deal of money on Deputy-Mayor Shangguan Zhengs election campaign, but Wang Lu didnt dare to speak about all this, publicly.
She remembered that Shangguan Ning wasnt this fierce before. She was someone who was easily satisfied with whatever she got, but now she had changedpletely.
Shangguan Ning said, How weird? Didnt you just say that your son was a priceless treasure! And everyone heard you too. The one billion I have asked for, isnt a lot, or maybe you didnt mean what you just said.
None of the guests had expected that they would be witness to this kind of a battle ,between two wealthy families of A city. This woman may look fragile, but she was a force to be reckoned with. She didnt show any sign of weakness and ably put forward her argument in front of her supposed family.
Shangguan Ning was halfway through her sentence, when she suddenly felt a stinging pain in her waist.
She turned around that very instant and happened to see Shangguan Rouxue move away from her.
What are you upto this time? Which new trick do you have up your sleeve?
Just then Shangguan Ning had a terrible premonition. Her instinct told her to stay away from her step sister. She realised that Shangguan Rouxue was clutching onto something in her fist. She tried to grab a hold of her hand, to see what it was but just then Shangguan Rouxue retreated from Ning and burst out crying.
She sobbed, Sister, I have never asked you for anything. Zhuojun and I love each other. Please dont force him to let go of me, so you can have him. He doesnt love you anymore. Please dont trouble Mrs. Xie. She has nothing to do with all this. Its all my fault. No one else is to be med.
Shangguan Rouxue pushed herself against Shangguan Ning, all the while, ying to the gallery. She then fell to the ground, shrieking in pain, pretending as if Shangguan Ning had pushed her.
Shangguan Ning fell to the ground too, due to the force with which her sister pushed against her.
In the eyes of the bystanders, it was Shangguan Ning who was at fault.
Shangguan Ning sat there, ignoring everyone else. For so many years, you have been using this technique. Ridiculously enough, people still continue to fall for it.
Xie Zhuojun was confused. He stared at both the sisters.
Yang Wenshu, loved her daughter immensely and was worried that her daughter had hurt herself. Her hatred for Shangguan Ning was obvious, for all to see.
Shangguan Zheng was still fuming with fury and disappointment.
Even Xie Zhoujuns parents were staring at Ning in disgust. They couldnt believe that she was such a horrible person.
Strange enough, Shangguan Ning couldnt care less. She was at peace because she finally had the courage to speak her mind and stand up for herself. She had finally showed everyone, the true colours of Family Shangguan and Family Xie. What an apt engagement present she had given to the couple.
She wondered why her head felt heavy, all of a sudden.
She felt her blood pressure shoot up and felt giddy. What was happening to her ?
Shangguan Ning nced at Shangguan Rouxues tightly clenched fists and suddenly the truth dawned on her. She remembered the stinging pain in her waist, a few minutes ago.
She felt like she was about to lose her bnce, and in the next moment, she copsed to the ground.
For a few seconds, she had a deja vu. As if all of this had happened before.
She felt weak and ufortable, but somehow she was still well aware of everything around her.
She saw her father look relieved, even though she was still lying on the floor. She also saw Shangguan Rouxue plead with Xie Zhuojun, to carry her to the hotel room, as if she had known that Ning was going to pass out.

A bitter smile hovered over Shangguan Nings face as she was lying on the carpet of the banquet hall.
She had thought that she wouldnt care that much but unexpectedly, she was feeling very sad inside her heart.
Mother, why did you fall in love with such a cold-blooded man? He can sacrifice everything for his political life and the position.
As your daughter, I believe that you must have tasted endless bitterness to have ended your life.
Dont worry, I will definitely find out those people who had hurt you and tall of them are going to be punished.
Shangguan Ning struggled to rise from the ground with thest remaining strength. But she failed each time after several attempts. She got increasingly heated that she wanted to rip off her clothes.
She didnt know exactly what they were nning, but she had some clues.
Shangguan Zheng not only had called her to urge her to keep Jing Yiranpany. He had even sent Shangguan Rouxue and Xie Zhuojun to bring her back because he wanted to send her to Jing Yiran.
But what she couldnt believe was that they had united together to get her injected with drugs at Shangguan Rouxues banquet so as to get her to Jing Yirans bed!
How could there be a father like this in the world?
It became totally chaotic inside the banquets hall. Suddenly, the gate was banged open. Astonished, everyone turned around to look at the gate.
A man dressed in a ck suit walked in.
He was emitting powerful charisma, with supetive facial features. The noble, indifferent look made him be the focus of the entire ce.
His cello like smooth voice was chilly enough to cause everyone around to shiver. He said, Stay put, or dont me me for losing your life.
After hearing his words, everyone suddenly realized that more than a dozen ck-clothed men stood, half concealed at the golden ceiling at the top of the banquet hall. Every one of them was holding a gun in hand, aiming at each one of their heads with ck muzzles.
Everyones face paled. They stayed frozen in ce in panic, not daring to move an inch.
But one of them refused to believe his words. He immediately grabbed the mobile so as to call the police, only to find that the mobile phone had no signal.
Then a bullet hit on his mobile urately, making a huge banging sound.
Everyone screamed and hid themselves beneath the table.
Shangguan Zheng and five other people instantly recognized this man who had walked straight out of hell into this hall. He was the same one who had protected Shanggun Ning in N City.
They had suspected that he wasnt an easy person, and it was confirmed today!
How could someone hide so many snipers at this five-star hotel which had excellent security facilities, without without making a sound! And that too at the engagement party of Deputy-Mayors daughter and her fiance, who was the heir of Family Xies Enterprise. Most of the guests invited there were elites with positions in the political and business fields of A City. They were all offended.
This man was indeed a maniac!
Ignoring the curious yet feared look of everyone else and the furious look of Shangguan Zheng and the other five people, Jing Yichen strode to Shangguan Ning, bent down and picked her up.
He spoke gently to her in concern, Ning, did Ie toote? Will you me me? I had just gone to get rid of an annoying hedgehog. I will definitelye to you sooner, next time. What do you want to do with these people?
With her in his arms, Shangguan Ning felt an unprecedented sense of security. She rxed totally, but every inch of her skin was still burning , making her feel acutely ufortable. Her face was flushed.
Everyone else seemed to disappear in front of her eyes except him.
Lets go home...
She spilled out these three words with difficulty. Then she shut her lips tightly, fearing that she would let out a painful moan.
Jing Yichen knew that she was suffering. Although he hated the man who drugged her, yet but he still carried her and walked out of the hall hearing her words.
As he passed Shangguan Zheng, he spoke sideways in a cold tone, I told you never to touch her once again. Any pain she suffered will be paid bak! No one is going to be happy if she is not happy!
He took one step ahead and threw a look at the distracted Xie Zhuojun. He said coldly, You better see what your fiance has in her hand.
After these words, Jing Yichen didnt pause for even one more minute before he strode out of the hall with Shangguan Ning in his hands. Redness had spread across her entire face.
In a short while, the armed ck-clothed men at the ceiling disappeared in silence again. No one was able to see how they went, just as they hadnt seen theme in.
The unknown was the biggest terror
The cold, menacing man had an immeasurable capability. No one knew where he came from and that made people be even more scared.
No one was in the mood to stay back at the party. They needed to be alive to enjoy a good engagement banquet!
Shangguan Zheng got so furious that he shivered slightly, seeing the guests who had been bowing to him and ttering him a minute ago, dashing off the scene as if they were trying to avoid a gue.
Who was this man?
He was definitely going to find it out.
He hadnt paid much attention to this man before. No one had been important enough for him to find details about when he was already at this position. But he had been threatened by this man many times and on todays asion, he had shown tremendous ability. Shangguan Zheng was not able to ignore him any more.
At this moment, Shangguan Rouxue had already sat up with the help of Xie Zhuojun. After hearing Jing Yichensst words before he left and seeing Xie Zhuojun throw a look at her tightly clenched hands, she went pale.
For one moment, Xie Zhuojun felt that he seemed to have been tricked. It seemed that this engagement banquet had been nned well by Family Shangguan whilst he was nothing but a tool for them to be taken advantage of.
Xue, what do you... have in hand?
He was even able to tell that his voice was trembling slightly.
He was gullible and a fickle guy whose heart softened easily. But that didnt mean that he was apletely stupid man.
Shangguan Ning copsed onto the ground and her white face had suddenly turned pink. It seemed like she had been... drugged by something.
Interestingly, her fiance had allowed him, for the very first time, to take Shangguan Ning up in his arms.
What did she say? She was asking him to take Shangguan Ning to Room 1201?
When did she book a hotel room?
She sounded so eager, totally different from the soft and elegantdy as she usually was.
No, no, it was impossible. Zhuojun had always been a gentle and kind woman. She was never going to do anything like that.
But why was he finding it so difficult to believe these words any more?
With a pale face, Shangguan Rouxue shook her head in panic. Please, Zhuojun, it is not what you think. I didnt do anything. Please dont misunderstand me!
Herrge eyes were full of tears, which flowed down along her exquisite face. Her fragile and miserable look was heart-breaking.
Seeing this scene, Yang Wenshu went up to hold her own daughter into her arms. Taking the overcoat as the cover, she put the thing in her daughters hand into her own.
Chapter 95 - Admiring Her Man
Chapter 95: Admiring Her Man
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
In the hotel room number 1201, Jing Yichen had just carried Shangguan Ning in when he heard his beloved wife mumble in his arms. What is the pig-head doing here?
Jing Yirans face ckened hearing the word pig-head.
His crisp red id shirt had be messy. Blood stter was all over the shirt whilst his charming handsome face was covered with bruises, bloated like a dim-sum. His amorous eyes had lost their enchantment whilst blood kept dripping out of his nose.
This Second Master of Family Jing, who was so powerful and influential in A City, was being held down to the ground in a horrible way by two men.
It had been Jing Yichen who had made this happen.
He had been so furious that he spent too much time beating his brother up else he would havee to Shangguan Nings rescue in the banquet hall much earlier.
Jing Yiran, on the other hand, had been beaten up by Jing Yichen too many times for him to even care about his wounds.
He snapped, Those useless dumb-headed people! So easily seen through! So brainless. What is the point of having ruthless heart!
He was sure that the n to get Shangguan Ning to the hotel for pleasure couldnt have been leaked out by his own men. It must have been Shangguan Zhengs stupid team who had slipped out the information!
Dumb teammates were even worse than capable rivals!
With Shangguan Ning in his arms, Jing Yichen didnt look at Jing Yiran, fearing that he would beat him to death at the sight of that disgusting face.
Strip him naked and send him back to Family Jing!
His men nodded and grabbed Jing Yiran by each hand and started to drag him outwards. They didnt act gently despite that he was the Second Master of Family Jing.
Jing Yichen carried Ning further into the room and put her to bed gently when only two of them were left.
Shangguan Ning wasnt drugged to the maximum extent. Although she was feeling heated throughout her body, her mind was clear.
She huddled herself up shyly seeing that Jing Yichen was trying to touch her. She red at him and asked, What are you doing?
What she didnt know was that because of the drugs, she wasnt showing any fierceness. Instead, she was giving out an air of enchantment. The look she had just cast upon Jing Yichen was not a re, but a lustful one. Her scolding was more like a pout. That made Jing Yichens mouth go dry.
He had wanted to teach her a lesson about not going to the evils home alone next time, but at this moment, the only thing he wanted to do was to knead into her body.
He was someone who took firm action and did everything that came to his mind.
A few momentster, the two bodies were tangled together.
Because of the drug, Shangguan Ning was even more participative than usual. That fascinated Jing Yichen.
Her smooth and soft hands held his face. Later, she wrapped her arms around his neck, massaging his taut back.
Jing Yichen wasnt able to resist her subconscious flirting. He called her baby in a low voice and covered Shangguan Nings lips.
...
Shangguan Nings biological clock again fell out of function the following morning, just as expected.
When she woke up, it was already noon.
The strange environment plus thenguish body were telling her clearly that the passion ofst night had not been her fantasy.
The sound of water sshing came from the bathroom. She realized that it would be Jing Yichen in the shower.
Shangguan Ning took a look at the conspicuous bite marks on her body and flushed.
After taking a shower, Jing Yichen smiled seeing his wifes shy, tempting look when he got back to the room.
Ignoring Shangguan Nings cry of surprise, he picked her up and carried her to the bathroom.
The sshing water in the bathroom covered up the sound that would embarrass most people.
Shangguan Ning had begged for mercy too many times before Jing Yichen released her reluctantly.
She tried to ignore him but he helped her to take a shower, dried her out and then got her dressed gently.
Baby, I am sorry. I will be more careful next time. Dont be annoyed, I can make Mu Qing send you some medicine if it hurts so much...
Shangguan Ning red at him. No way!
Making Mu Qing send her medicine... was he trying to embarrass her further?
This man was so thickheaded!
Actually, Jing Yichen was a little regretful at this moment. His heart ached for having hurt her just now when he was nearly out of control.
He carried up Shangguan Ning and then nted a kiss at her swollen lips and he said, Lets go home for lunch.
Although Shangguan Ning was tired and low on energy, she couldnt allow him to carry her out of the hotel in this way. She struggled and said, Get me down, I can walk myself!
Didnt you just say in the bathroom that I tired you out?
..... Shangguan Ning blushed and pinched his waist. I want to walk by myself.
Jing Yichen wasnt afraid of the gossip from the staff of the hotel, he was just worried about her.
But since she wasnt feeling good about it, he put her down and then walked out of the hotel hand in hand with her all the way to the Aston Martin.
Jing Yichen was getting the car started as he handed over a document to her.
I have bought Liyu Science & Technology. This is the share transfer contrast.
Shangguan Ning gasped. She didnt take the document for a few moments out of sheer surprise.
Liyu Science & Technology had always been a thorn in Shangguan Nings heart. She had wanted to get thepany established by her mother in her hands, but had failed repeatedly.
Shangguan Xing and his wife didnt not let it go, nor had Yang Wenshu agreed.
Shangguan Zheng was an official at the government, so he wasnt allowed to run apany. That was why all of his shares at Liyu Science & Technology were under Yang Wenshus name.
She was able to get a great deal of money from thepany each year, and had even thought about giving the share of Liyu Science & Technology to Shangguan Rouxue as dowry. So she would have never give up so easily.
How did Jing Yichen make it happen?
He was so powerful.
He hadpleted this affair in secret, making her free of all worries.
Shangguan Ning stared at Jing Yichen in admiration!
Seeing her excitement, Jing Yichen was happy. He felt a sense of aplishment to have done something for her.
The development team Jing Yiran hired, has already run out of talent. I will help you get some other people who are better. You can reconstruct the team yourself.
Deeply moved, Shangguan Ning felt tears filling up her eyes. Hearing his words, she said lightly, Thank you! It has always been what I wanted.
Jing Yichen touched her head in a indulging way and smiled. Silly girl. You are my wife, no need to say thank-you. That is what I should do as your husband.

Chapter 96: Time for Revenge
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Time passed quickly. Soon it was time for election of the Mayor of A City. The election process had reached its final, most critical stage.
Deputy-Mayor Shangguan, who was known to have nopetitors earlier, received very little support. The representative of the opposition, who wasparatively less popr, seemed to have garnered a lot of support from the people who mattered.
Shangguan Zheng had been on the edge for the past one month. Any small issue that went against his wishes, would make him lose temper.
When Liyu Science & Technology was nothing but a bankrupt, loss making venture, he sold it. What made the sale a heavy cross to bear was, when he learnt that Shangguan Ning was the biggest shareholder in thepany!
He was so furious that he smashed a set of porcin vases.
What worried him further was that the mans prophecy wasing true.
The Mayors position was slipping further and further away from his grasp. Now things were so bad that it seemed like he would not be able to hold on to the post of Deputy-Mayor for too long, as well. He had used numerous tactics to get to this stature. He wasnt going to let it go so easily.
With no other avable option, Shangguan Zheng asked all his friends and contacts for help, but to no avail. Jing Yiran, who was the most powerful amongst the people he knew, had also vanished into thin air. Shanguan Zheng couldnt reach him, no matter how hard he tried.
He had wanted to check Jing Yichens background, but his subordinates had been unable to do that for him. He would have run a background check on Jing Yichen, by himself, but since he was the deputy mayor, he could do nothing without public scrutiny.
He finally realized what kind of man he had offended.
He now wondered if he and his family had failed to check in to the resort at N City because of this mans handiwork.
Shangguan Zheng calmed down after a while.
He pacified himself with the knowledge that Shangguan Ning was very important to that man. If she were to plead to him to make her father the mayor, surely Jing Yichen would not refuse. He would definitely help.
Suddenly, he felt secure.
Shangguan Ning was his own daughter after all. The fact that her father was at his lowest level, professionally, would surely upset her. If he ever did be the Mayor, she would be the Mayors daughter, which was an honour. He believed that Shangguan Ning was not going to turn him down.
Shangguan Zheng couldnt get over the humiliation meted out to him by Xie Dongfeng, when he had asked him for help. Xie Dongfeng had turned him down without any hesitation. He made some silly excuses which, in reality, were nothing but a facade. Shangguan Zheng saw through them and wondered what was the point of marrying his daughter into Family Xie. His daughter had got engaged with their son but even they refused to help C financially or otherwise.
Xie Dongfeng felt that their family had been duped. He was upset that Shangguan Zheng had conveniently forgotten their contribution. Shangguan Zheng had be Deputy Mayor only because of Family Xies timely assistance. Of course he knew the age old adage C The interest is always sweeter than the principle C they had convinced Shangguan Ning to marry their vegetative son. He had gotten out of hisa, thanks to Shangguan Ning. Well, Maybe Family Xie had benefited after all.
Yang Wenshu and Shangguan Rouxue didnt daree in the way of Shangguan Zheng. Both of them understood his state of mind, so they tried to be gentle with him every time. Shangguan Zheng was in an exceptionally bad mood today, so the two women left home early in the morning, on some pretext.
Xie Zhuojun was in a fix of his own. He hadnt caught Shangguan Rouxue doing anything suspicious at the engagement party, yet his instincts told him otherwise. He had always been indecisive and conveniently remained in denial. He continued to treat Shangguan Rouxue with kid gloves and gave in to her every whim and fancy. He thought he saw deceit in her eyes.. or was it guilt..? He couldnt tell. He thought his mind was ying tricks on him and so he ignored all the red gs.
Sitting in her make up room provided to her by the TV Station, Shangguan Rouxue stared at Xie Zhuojun, who seemed lost in a world of his own.
A touch of coldness arose in her beautiful eyes, which disappeared within a moment that Xie Zhuojun thought that he must have gotten so tired that he saw blurry things.
Xie Zhuojun reminded himself that she was still the fragile, kind-hearted and pure and tender Shangguan Rouxue.
At their engagement he didnt see what Shangguan Rouxue held in her palm, but he had seen the impression of it, when he held her hand after that. He refused to give it much thought. He only hoped that Xue was still the kind person that he thought she was. She may be spoiled and jealous, but intrinsically she was still honest.
Although the engagement party didnt go as well as he wouldve liked, they were engaged anyway. He couldnt betray a girl who truly loved him.
Seeing Xie Zhuojun distracted again, Shangguan Rouxue was annoyed.
Xie Zhuojun belonged only to her. He would marry only her. She wouldnt allow anyone to change that. She had loved this man for so many years and he was such a catch. She wanted them to be the happy couple whom everyone was envious of.
She was careful enough not to show her displeasure. Instead she asked in a tone full of concern, Did you hear what I said, Zhuojun? Why are you so distracted? Are you tired?
Xie Zhuojun snapped out of his thoughts. He yed along with Shangguan Rouxues excuse. He massaged his temples and said with a smile, Yes, I am a bit tired. Too many things at thepany and I have been overly busy.
Is the Company not doing well? Can I be of any help? Shangguan Rouxue asked,as if she could really take away Xie Zhuojuns troubles.
Family Xies Enterprise was facing problems too. Either their suppliers faced difficulties in providing them with the required raw materials or their buyers defaulted in payments. Although these hadnt posed to be a huge problem as yet, incessant small problems at work hindered thepanys progress.
Shangguan Zheng was actively involved in the political set ups of the city . He too, was unable to help their business. Besides, there wasnt much he could do anyway. He himself was in such a soup.
If Xie Zhuojun ever did ask Shangguan Rouxue for help, it wouldnt do them good. She was a pretty face, that was true. She spoke well and was presentable, but that didnt ount for much. She had no ability to carry out fierce negotiations with suppliers and buyers at the factory.
He had once tried to persuade her to switch careers. He had requested her to lend him a helping hand at Family Xiespany and let go of her current job as a TV host. She had cried bitterly at this suggestion, saying that being a TV host was her dream and having to give it up would be like asking her to destroy her own soul.
Her tears had made him feel awful. He never brought this up ever again.
Xie Zhuojun thought of the time when he was engaged to Shangguan Ning. She was an avid tennis yer and was very passionate about the game. She was naturally gifted at it too. She had put in countless hours of practice in order to better her game. His family was opposed to the idea of their to-be daughter-inw ying tennis. This was against Family Xies traditions. Shangguan Ning hadnt stopped to think about it even for a minute. She let go of her dream without any hesitation and never yed any tennis after that.
He looked at Shangguan Rouxue, who was carefully lining her eyebrows. He suddenly realized that she didnt love him enough to want to give up anything for him. She knew that her tears were his weakness. As long as she cried, he would soften his stance and do exactly what she wanted. As long as she insisted, he wouldpromise.
Xie Zhuojun was filled with fury. He did not know what came over him. In a fit of rage, he stood up and tore her expensive Prada dress apart. Shangguan Rouxue screamed in surprise. In the TV stations room, he started to vent out his desire and fury between her surprised screams.

Shangguan Ning spent a little over a month, restructuring Liyu Science & Technology.
Her inheritance, namely the five million yuan which her mother had left to her, was used to recruit a group of young and creative engineers. They were in charge of designing and developing new products.
During the day, she worked as Jing Yichens assistant at Jingsheng Enterprise. In the evenings and on weekends, she brainstormed with the group of engineers. They discussed their own products and researched theirpetitors products, so as to provide their clients with top of the line merchandise.
A month had passed and she had lost a lot of weight.
Seeing her working so hard, Jing Yichen had offered to help, but she turned it down.
She wanted to re-establish thepany on a new note, just like her mother did, many years ago. Her mother had gone on to make it the most reliable and trusted brand in electronic home devices in A City.
Jing Yichen was busy with his work as well but no matter how busy he was, he would ensure that dinner was delivered to Shangguan Ning at Liyu Science & Technology. The person would take the food with him and would see to it that he left only after Shangguan Ning had finished eating it.
Thepany was finally on track and ready to go.
Shangguan Ning was hard at work that morning, when she decided that she needed a break. She thought of visiting her own caf.
She had been thinking about going there, for a while now but hadnt been able to make the time for it. The caf was buzzing and had a lot of customers. She was d to see it doing so well.
The staff at the cafe, were very happy to see her. She was, after all, the big boss. She was pleasant and courteous. They were all thrilled to interact with her.
Shangguan Nings mothers friend Jin Ting, operated the caf for her. She addressed him as Uncle Jin.
Jin Ting was over 50 years old and ran several cafs in A city. He brought with him a lot of expertise, which was just what Shangguan Ning needed, since she couldnt be at the cafe every day.
Jin Ting was not at the cafe when Shangguan Ning visited. She greeted the staff at the caf, took a seat in a quiet corner, ordered a mug of cappino and started to thumb through some books.
Just as she was sipping her coffee, she saw Yang Wenshu enter the cafe.
Shangguan Ning frowned, wondering what she was doing here.
Before Shangguan Ning could even process the thought, Yang Wenshu took out a disposable coffee container from her bag and sshed its contents on Shangguan Nings face.
The boiling hot coffee instantly burnt the tender skin on her face, causing her immense pain.
Coffee stains covered her outfit too, making a mess.
Shangguan Ning shrieked in pain. In retort, she sshed her half full mug of coffee on Yang Wenshus face.
Yang Wenshu screamed and stumbled backwards. She fell on the ground and covered her face with her hands.
She yelled loudly, This caf is dangerous. The owner is a maniac. Everyone, leave as soon as you can. It is for your own safety. Dont evere here again!
Shangguan Ning was extremely furious, seeing the guests at the caf queuing up to leave.
Without hesitation, she picked up a kettle of hot water, from over the counter, and poured boiling hot water on Yang Wenshu.
Yang Wenshu screamed as the water burned her skin. She never expected Shangguan Ning to be so ruthless.
Sure enough, Shangguan Ning had just poured a little bit of hot water when a man said furiously, Stop it, Shangguan Ning!
Shangguan Nings hand that held the kettle paused a moment and then she continued with the pouring without looking up.
Shangguan Ning was no longer the person she used to be. Now she was capable of giving back exactly what she received. If someone treated her well, she was twice as nice to the person, but if someone hurt her, she wouldnt hesitate to fight back. She had had enough.
Since it was Yang Wenshu who picked on her first, Ning had all the more reason to retaliate.
Her own face stung with the coffee that Yang Wengshu had thrown on her but she didnt retreat without putting up a fight.
She poured the contents of the entire kettle on Yang Wenshu and was about to pick up another kettle when she heard someone say C Stop it, Shangguan Ning!
It was Xie Zhuojun, who caught hold of her wrist, in order to stop her.
Shangguan Ning used her other hand and continued to pour boiling hot water on Yang Wengshu. She screamed in pain, writhing on the ground, because of the burns. Shangguan Ning followed her wherever she crawled.
There were no customers in the caf and the few staff left behind were astonished by their bosss behaviour.
The kettle of hot water had already been emptied on Yang Wenshu. It was toote for Xie Zhuojun to stop Ning.
Are you crazy? How could you do this? She is Xues mother, yelled Xie Zhuojun. He was astonished and furious. He could hardly believe his eyes. This was the same polite and gentle Shangguan Ning he knew, who hadmitted this act of deviousness.
Shangguan Ning flung off Xie Zhuojuns hands and said disdainfully, Dont touch me, Xie Zhuojun. You make me sick!
Xie Zhuojun was about to say something but her words made him lose his line of thought. You make me sick- how could she say this to him?
He had done nothing, but why did she hate him so bitterly?
Ignoring Xie Zhuojun, Shangguan Ning said to Yang Wenshu, who was still lying on the floor, If you dare to create a ruckus here again, it will be sulphuric-acid that I will pour on you.. not hot water! Dont ever assume that I am still the diffident and obedient girl I used to be. I am not weak anymore. I will ensure that I take back whatever belongs to me.
Yang Wenshu was still in pain. That didnt stop her from saying what she wanted to. How can you be so ruthless, Shangguan Ning? We dont owe you anything. Why are you always picking on me and Xue? Why did you rob us of Liyu Science & Technology? Give it back to Xue.
Xie Zhuojun looked at Shangguan Ning in surprise.
Shangguan Ning ignored him, picked up a napkin from one of the tables and gently wiped off the coffee from her face.
Stinging pain was all she could feel.
Liyu Science & Technology is my motherspany. It has nothing to do with you and your daughter. You have bled thepany dry. You have used up all its finances. I will never spare you. Youd better prove that you have nothing to do with my mothers death, otherwise you would wish that you were dead!
Shangguan Ning did not have any proof that Yang Wengshu had anything to do with her mothers death, but looking at her behaviour, it wasnt hard to put two and two together. She knew that she had to teach Yang Wenshu a lesson that shed never forget.
She killed herself! What more can I say? I dont have anything to do with it. You are just hallucinatingC pleaded Yang Wengshu.
Xie Zhuojun helped Yang Wengshu to get on her feet and stand up. She writhed in pain and her face, that she had so lovingly nurtured, was full of blisters.
Your father forced me into marrying him! I never robbed anyone of anything that they rightfully deserved. Just like my daughter, Xue. She never nned on robbing you of anything either. It was Zhuojun whose good heart picked Xue over you.
It couldnt be denied that Yang Wenshu was a woman who schemed and plotted to get what she wanted. She yed the part of a perfect wife and hostess in the presence Shangguan Zheng. It was only now that her true colours were out in the open.
Shangguan Ning was well aware of Xie Zhuojuns fickle temperament. Nothing he said or did, surprised her anymore.
Her face hurt and she thought it would be best for her to see a doctor as soon as possible.
She mustnt ruin her face for these two people. They werent worth it one bit.

The barista, Hu, at the caf, drove Shangguan Ning to Family Mus Hospital.
When the chief nurse in charge told Mu Qing that Shangguan Ning was here and needed assistance, he abandoned Ji Lili, his current patient. Ji Lili was the daughter of the Mayor, who hade to the hospital for a check-up. Mu Qing dashed towards the emergency section without further dy.
Shangguan Ning was as important as a national treasure. He had to see what was wrong with her even if the heavens were falling.
Shangguan Ning chuckled between pain when she saw how worked up Mu Qing was. Doctor Mu, sorry to bother you again.C she said.
Mu Qing was startled at the sight of her face. He said angrily, What happened to your face? Who did this? Is he still alive? If he is, let me know, I will chop him dead.
He quickly took some ointment on a cotton swab and gently applied it on her face. Her face stung with pain. Her teeth were clenched shut but she didnt utter a sound. The doctor couldnt help but admire her resilience.
Heforted her, saying, Dont worry. You will be fine soon. Your face will be just like it always was, in a couple of days. Complete recovery would need several days though. Im prescribing an ointment for you. It works better than others and may cause pain. If I were you, I would tolerate it. The affected area on your face is toorge for me to be able to use an anesthetic.
Although this medicine was extremely effective, it did cause a lot of difort, upon application. Many patients would cry in pain but not her.
Shangguan Ning didntin one bit. Mu Qing had new found respect for her, seeing her tolerance level.
He wasnt sure where Jing Yichen had found this treasure from. Mu Qing had never heard of her before.
He felt lucky that Jing Yichen hadnt apanied Shangguan Ning to the hospital, otherwise Yichen would torment him for making Shangguan Ning go through so much agony.
Whoever it was, that had done this to Shangguan Nings face, did not know what terrible fate awaited him. That is, if the person was still alive. He couldnt help but shake his head at the thought.
He brought Shangguan Ning to the Intensive Care Unit and applied anotheryer of ointment to reduce the swelling on her face. He also told her that in order to avoid getting an infection, she would have to visit the hospital everyday. He would change her dressing daily.
Shangguan Ning thanked the doctor and was about to leave when the doctor noticed the young man who drove Shangguan Ning to the hospital and stood by her side.
Shangguan Ning instantly made a brief introduction. This is the barista at my caf, Hu. He drove me here today. Hu, this is Doctor Mu. You can visit him whenever you need medical assistance, though I pray you never do. He is an extremely able doctor. You will be in good hands.
They both acknowledged each other with a smile and a polite nod of the head.
Mu Qing was an outgoing man who seemed to be hospitable to everyone and had met enough people to know why Hu kept staring at Ning. It didnt need a smart man to tell that Hu was in love with Shangguan Ning.
Mu Qing rolled his eyes and said to Hu with gratitude, Thank you for getting my brothers wife to the hospital in time, Hu. She is fine now. You can get back to work. My brother wille and fetch herter.
Hu was taken aback. Did he hear right? Did the doctor say C brothers wife?
Shangguan Ning was married?
Of course, a beautiful woman with such an attractive charisma couldnt be single!
Masking his disappointment and sadness, he exchanged pleasantries with Mu Qing reluctantly and left the hospital.
Seeing him leave, Mu Qing pursed his lips and mumbled, Young man, how can you even hope to get Shangguan Ning? She is out of your league. She is Master Jings woman. If he ever gets to know of your feelings, you would need to leave A city, forget the caf!
He packed some bottles of medicine and carefully made a prescription. He then handed them to Shangguan Ning. Take these bottles home and take your medicines ording to my prescription. Im reiterating. Dont skip visiting the hospital everyday. I need to change your dressing daily.
Shangguan Ning took the pack from him and thanked him profusely. Mu Qing asked Shangguan Ning casually, Sister, have you seen Anan recently?
Shangguan Ning didnt think before she replied subconsciously, Didnt she go abroad for medical treatment?
Immediately she realised that something was amiss.
Zhao Anan had lived abroad for two months. Which disease was she suffering from that she needed to visit a foreign hospital? Both Mu Qing and his grandpa were so good at medical care already!
Why didnt she allow them to treat her?
Maybe even they couldnt cure her.
Shangguan Ning wondered if Zhao Anan had some physical disability. She had seen her drink bitter Chinese medicine, when she was teaching at the school.
Shangguan Ning had known Zhao Anan for many years. She looked normal and had shown no incapability when they yed tennis together. When asked why she was under medication, she said that it was her mother who forced her to drink Chinese concoctions, despite being perfectly healthy. Therefore, Shangguan Ning had never thought that it could be something serious.
Doctor Mu, do you know whats wrong with Anan? Shangguan Ning asked. She felt her mouth go dry with nervousness. She feared what Mu Qing would say.
Zhao Anan was one of her closest friends. She needed to be fine.
Mu Qing smiled at her and calmed her down. She isnt sick. I just asked generally. Dont overthink. I guess shell be back very soon. I thought she wouldve already returned, which is why I asked you.
Shangguan Ning rxed, seeing his positive demeanour. She can stay as long as she needs to, as long as she is fine. She has been away for two months, and she has barely contacted me. I myself have been too busy to check on her. I presumed the worst, when you asked about her. Im sorry if I asked you too many questions. I didnt mean to pry.
Mu Qingughed and said cheerfully, Dont worry about that tomboy. She is such a tough nut that she will outlive us all.
He was smiling outwardly, but in his heart he knew that Zhao Anan wasnt alright. She had been abroad for far too long. Something must be seriously wrong with her to warrant that.
Since Zhao Anan had not said anything to Shangguan Ning, he wouldnt say anything either. It wasnt his ce to tell her. Besides, what good would it do to have one more person worry about her well being.
They were in the midst of a conversation, when someone pushed open the door of the ward, disrespectfully.
Shangguan Ning looked up, only to find that it was Ji Lili, whom she hadnt seen for a long time.
A nurse stepped in immediately after Ji Lili. She embarrassingly exined to Mu Qing, Doctor Mu, I tried but I couldnt stop Ms.Ji...
Actually, she didnt dare to stop this hot-tempered daughter of the Mayor anymore. She had tried to stop her twice before, but Ji Lili pped her across her face.
Mu Qing, of course, was aware of Ji Lilis temper tantrums. His expressions changed from cheerful to livid, instantly.

Chapter 99: The Unruly Daughter of the Mayor (Part Two)

The wards and the Intensive Care Units of Family Mus Hospital were forbidden to intruders. The hospital was known for the privacy and security which it provided to its patients. Apart from being providers of world ss healthcare, they prided themselves on their ability to give patients the kind of privacy they needed, in order to heal.
Although Mu Qing was friendly and easy going by nature, he was never casual about his work. He took his profile and the hospitals reputation, very seriously.
He was inspired to be a doctor, by his grandfather, who was a doctor too. He cared for this hospital as much as he cared about his own life. He could not let anyone harm the hospitals goodwill.
Here was Ji Lili though, making a fuss by throwing her weight around, just because she was the mayors daughter. This was simply not eptable to him. It was against his principles.
Please leave, Ji Lili! Mu Qing said, in all seriousness. This is Family Mus ward, not amon area, where you can walk in as and when you please. If you do not follow the rules and regtions of this hospital, I will be forced to take extreme measures. Our hospital will never treat anyone from Family Ji ever again.
Ji Lili looked like a replica of her mother. She had inherited her mothers beauty and personality. She was petite and extremely pretty. She had a dominating personality, because she had been spoilt by both her parents, who brought her up like a princess. No one dared to order her around or speak harshly with her.
When Mu Qing chided her and asked her to leave, she was irritated beyond measure.
Well, Its your loss. This is a stupid hospital anyway! I will never bothering here again, after the way you have spoken with me today. I shall ask my mother to have this hospital shut down. Lets see you give me attitude then. You should be taught a lesson, for leaving in the midst of my treatment, to go and treat another patient.
Though it was true that Mu Qing left Ji Lilis treatment halfway, after he was told of Shangguan Nings arrival, he had ensured that he had left Ji Lili under the care of one his most trusted doctors. Ji Lili was so upset by this that she had stormed out of there and had gone looking for Mu Qing in every ward on the floor, much to the chagrin of the security personnel.
Her own security entourage were already asked to leave the premises, but no one dared to say anything to her. They knew that they would have to bear the wrath of Family Ji. They would have to either leave A city for their own good or Mayor Ji would see to it that they mysteriously disappeared from the face of this earth.
Ji Lili was used to being treated like royalty. She could not believe that Mu Qing had ignored her and chosen to see someone else. She wanted to see who this person was. Who could be more important than her?
So, you abandoned me, the princess, to check up this little bitch, Shangguan Ning? screamed Ji Lili as she stormed into the ward. She was about to use some more profanities when she happened to nce at Shangguan Nings face. She saw that Nings face was full of blisters and had swollen up. She burst intoughter.
Aha, Shangguan Ning, what happened to your face? Looks like the backside of a monkey, if you ask me. Haha. You look so ugly. You look worse than a pig and Im being polite here! You will stay unmarried because of the way you look.
Shangguan Nings face still hurt. Coffee stains on her hair and clothes made her feel very ufortable. She really wasnt in a mood to argue with this maniac, right now. What was more, everyone was well aware of how Ji Lili had been spoiled since childhood. She may have been bossy and dominating, but she had a few redeeming qualities. She had kept closepany with Shangguan Rouxue, who brainwashed herpletely. Every time she ran into Shangguan Ning, she would use speak to her very rudely and side with Shangguan Rouxue and her doings.
Shangguan Ning didnt want to argue with this kind of woman. Talking with Ji Lili would mean having to stoop down to her level, which Shanguan Ning did not wish to do. She turned a deaf ear to Ji Lilisints. She looked through her. She got off the bed, put on shoes and nodded thankfully at Mu Qing. Thank you, Doctor Mu, but I think I must leave now.
Ji Lili was extremely annoyed, having gotten no reaction out of Shangguan Ning!
Didnt you hear what I just said to you?! Shanggaun Ning, this is Karma! You are always luring men with your pretty face. You have lured Shangguan Rouxues fianc and also my cousin, who is taken in by your charms. Lets see how you lure men with your face now. Hahaha.
Mu Qing had thought that Shangguan Ning would get annoyed on hearing Ji Lili say such outrageous things, but to his surprise, Shangguan Ning was indifferent and remained calm andposed.
Although she painted a sorry picture, with her face and clothes covered with coffee stains and medical ointments, she was still more elegant than Ji Lili, who was wearing branded clothes and expensive make-up. Ji Lili was no match for her personality and charisma.
He seemed to understand why Jing Yichen, who was not one to be impressed easily had fallen in love with Shangguan Ning at first sight and cherished her like a treasure.
Shangguan Ning looked at Ji Lili calmly and said what she never intended to.
Ms. Ji, do you want to know why your cousin never liked you?
Ji Lilis cousin, Ji Bo, was one of the heirs of Family Ji. He was tall, handsome and well mannered. He behaved like a thorough gentleman with everyone except for Ji Lili, with whom, he was totally cold.
Ji Lili, who was used to being the centre of attention, couldnt ept her cousins cold behaviour. Initially, she harassed her cousin repeatedly in order to make him change his mind, but eventually things took a turn for the worse, when Ji Lili fell in love with the very same cousin, who refused to even acknowledge her existence.
This was not a secret anymore and the entire Family Ji knew about this.
Ji Lili was shocked. She grabbed her Hermes handbag and threw it at Shangguan Ning.
Mu Qing cried out Cwatch out but Shangguan Ning was prepared and sessfully dodged the bag.
Because Shangguan Rouxue sent your cousin, pictures of you, inpromising positions, with various men. You think that she is your best friend? You are wrong. She is your biggest enemy. If you dont trust me, you can ask your cousin why he behaves the way he does, with you. Please stop shouting and creating a scene. It just shows you in bad light.
Ji Lili argued back, Nonsense! You are the stupid one! You are saying all this because you are jealous of Xue and I. We are much prettier than you, by the way.
Shangguan Ning didnt wish to speak with her anymore.
If Ji Lili had any sense, she would rify her stance with her cousin. Otherwise, she could continue to live in a fools paradise, thanks to her friend Shangguan Rouxue.
Shangguan Ning turned around and walked out of the ward. Mu Qing ignored Ji Lili and chose to walk out with Shangguan Ning.
He had requested the barista, Hu, to leave and he did not think it was right for him to let Shangguan Ning go home alone. Jing Yichen would give him grief, if he ever got to know of this.
He caught up with Shangguan Ning instantly and said, Sister, let me drop you home.
Shangguan Ning didnt refuse his offer. She knew that she looked like a mess. She thanked him and allowed him to drive her home.

Jing Yichen was travelling on a business trip and was abroad all these days. After Mu Qing drove Shangguan Ning home, he himself called Jing Yichen and updated him aout what had transpired since the morning.
After hearing that Shangguan Nings face had been burnt with hot coffee, Jing Yichen flew back to A City immediately, postponing all his workmitments.
At home in A city, Shangguan Ning was home alone and just about to sit down for dinner. Her husband, who was supposed to be in Australia, was standing in front of her.
Jing Yichen was tired and jetgged. Even then he was thrilled to see Shangguan Ning. Shangguan Ning was so concerned about him.
She asked him softly, Werent you on a business trip abroad? What are you doing here?
Jing Yichens heart ached when he saw his wifes perfect face, full of red patches and burn marks.
He had only been away for a couple of days and she had been injured again. He was so furious that he wanted to tear apart the person who hurt her. He was about to touch her face, when he suddenly decided not to,out of fear that he may hurt her.
Ning, I promised you that I would never let anyone hurt you ever again. I will not spare anyone who dares to harm you in any way. Dont be soft-hearted and let them get away scot-free. Listen to me, please! Jing Yichens voice was hoarse because of the long journey, but he was still gentle with Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning nodded after being silent for sometime. Okay, I will do as you say. I am not soft-hearted. I just dont want to waste my time and energy on my past. I dont care about all those people. I just want to live a stable and peaceful life but they just dont want to let me get on with it. They may be my dearest friends and my family, but I will definitely not allow them to create chaos in my life, whenever they please. I know how to protect myself.
Jing Yichen held her in his own arms, taking care to not hurt her. He felt better knowing that Shangguan Ning was capable of taking care of herself.
What he was worried about was that she would tolerate and forgive those who wronged her, because they happened to be her blood rtives.
Also. Jing Yichen thought for a moment and said, I think someone should apany you everywhere, from now on. Dont get me wrong. Im only suggesting this for your security otherwise my mind will not be at peace. If someone had been around with you today, then maybe nothing of this sort would have happened.
Shangguan Ning didnt like the idea of being followed around by someone. Besides, she thought that there was no need for any extra protection. After learning that Lee Duo and his team were tailing her on the sly, some months ago, she had managed to convince Jing Yichen that she didnt need protection.
Jing Yichen had agreed with her, on the face of it but he still had instructed Lee Duo to continue with following Shangguan Ning so as to ensure her safety at all times. They had to be slightly more careful now and hide around in the shadows, so that Shangguan Ning would never notice them.
The downside of that was, Lee Duo and his team could never arrive in time to protect her because they had to maintain a safe distance from her, at all times.
Jing Yichen didnt feel good about leaving Shangguan Ning alone again.
They wont be in close proximity, I promise. If anything happens to you, atleast Ill be in the loop and cane to your rescue.
Shangguan Ning felt that Jing Yichen was overly anxious. She had been living a normal life for more than two decades. All these things had never happened to her.
But during the past few days, too many things were going wrong, for it to be called a coincidence. Some or the other incident was threatening Shangguan Nings well being.
However, she wasnt worried about anyone, except for Jing Yiran. He was a psychopath, who would turn up anywhere, anytime, without prior warning.
She heard learnt from Jing Yichen that at the engagement party, Jing Yiran had plotted with Shangguan Zheng and Shangguan Rouxue, to drug Shangguan Ning. If Jing Yichen hadnt arrived in time, the consequences would have been brutal.
He hadnt seeded in his n, so he woulde at her again, sooner orter.
Shangguan Ning nodded in agreement. Okay, let Lee Duo follow me, but let me warn you.The way things are goingtely, they may have to work very hard.
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief. He was happy that she agreed with him on his proposal. It is their duty. No trouble at all.
The people were being paid high remunerations every month. These werent given to them for recreational activities. It was their job to provide security and now it was time for them to do what they had been employed to do
Feeling satisfied with the result of this discussion, Jing Yichen sat down to dinner with Shangguan Ning.
The couple hadnt eaten dinner together, at home, for a long time, so this meal felt special.
After dinner, Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning went to bed. He enveloped her tender body in his arms.
He let out a sigh of satisfaction, kissed her injured forehead, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Without Shangguan Ning beside him, his heart felt hollow and insecure. Even work couldnt distract him. His heart was full and happy, being able to hold her in his arms, at home. He slept better that night.
He didnt return to Australia the following day. Instead, he took Shangguan Ning to Mu Qings for a change of dressing.
Shangguan Nings swelling on the face had reduced tremendously, with the help of Mu Qings magical medication. It only hurt a little bit now and even the redness had reduced considerably.
Shangguan Nings face would be curedpletely after two days.
She had been worried that her face would be full of scars, but she was relieved to notice that no scars remained.
Family Mus Hospital really lived up to their reputation for curing all kinds of medical issues.
I will be fine. Youd better get back to work. Dont dy yourmitments any further. Seated in the car, Shangguan Ning tried to persuade Jing Yichen to take a flight to Australia and finish with his work there. She was aware that there were numerous issues at Jingsheng Enterprise, that needed his attention. A dy of even a day, might cost thepany tens of millions of yuan.
She didnt feel good about that.
Jing Yichen understood what Shangguan Ning was worried about. Important as Jingsheng Enterprise was to him, yet Shangguan Ning was more important. Money could be made again, if it were lost, but there was only one Shangguan Ning in the world, and she was most special to him.
He held Shangguan Nings delicate hands as heforted her, Everything else can wait. Nothing is more important than you. I want to be around you,since you are hurt. You mustnt deprive a husband of his right to take care of his wife.
Shangguan Ning smiled and her heart was aglow with warmth and affection.
She stepped out of the car with Jing Yichen, and walked towards the Intensive Care Unit, hand in hand, with Jing Yichen. The nurses at the hospital were all envious.
Mu Qing had already received Jing Yichens message, informing him of their arrival. He had kept the medication ready and was waiting for them in the ward.
He had witnessed a whole new side to Jing Yichens personality. He had never expected that Jing Yichen, who was generally so aloof and distant, would care so much for a woman. Mu Qing was surprised that Jing Yichen, known to be a workaholic, had even kept his work aside for thisdy. He hade to realise how important Shangguan Ning was to Jing Yichen.
The moment Jing Yichen had received Mu Qings message, he decided to take the next flight home. He had let go of a deal worth millions of yuan, without hesitation.
Luckily for Mu Qing, Shangguan Nings face showed remarkable improvement. His grandpas medicine for burns worked like a charm. It was an expensive medicine but at the same time, it was very effective.
He was relieved by the result. He was also aware that if Shangguan Nings condition hadnt improved, Jing Yichen was capable of demolishing the entire hospital.
As for the person who hurt Shangguan Ning, Mu Qing was sure that the person would not die a quick death, because Jing Yichen would make them suffer.
Mu Qing was aware that on the same day that Shangguan Ning had checked into his hospital, Yang Wenshu had also seen a doctor at another hospital, for burns. Mu Qing had already predicted that no hospital in all of A City would want to be in charge of Yang Wenshus treatment. He was proved right.
Over thest two days, parts of her body that were scalded by hot water, had started to get infected. She was no longer the gentle beauty that she was known to be.
Shangguan Rouxue was distraught. She kept crying all day. She had expected that Xie Zhuojun would be by her side at this difficult time, but he had some businessmitments and needed to meet a few clients over dinner. These clients were about to sign a contract which could prove to be very profitable for Xie Enterprise.
Daddy, what are we going to do? No hospital is willing to take Mommy. What will happen to her. She will definitely have to live with...
Shangguan Rouxue couldnt bring herself to finish that sentence with the words C an ugly face.
Yang Wenshu couldnt bear to look at herself in the mirror. The beauty that she had been so proud of, had vanished. In its ce, were a face and body that were scarred beyond belief.

Chapter 101: The Deputy-Mayor Who Could Bend and Rise at Will
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Zheng was appalled, seeing his wifes condition.
By now, he waspletely certain that their inability to check into the resort at N City must have been the doing of the man who was with Shangguan Ning. How dare he offend Shangguan Zhengs family again?
None of the hospitals at A City were willing to begin treatment for Yang Wenshus burns.
Who on earth was this man? How powerful was he, to have such a hold over all of A City!
Shangguan Zheng was the Deputy-Mayor of the city, and he still had no idea who this man was.
He decided to call Shangguan Ning over. Yang Wenshu was like her mother, if not her real mother. She had taken care of Shangguan Ning since Ning was ten years old. But Shangguan Ning was so ungrateful. How could she make her suffer in this way? How did she have the heart to scald her with boiling hot water?
The man in question was extremely fond of Shangguan Ning. Surely, hed be more than willing to give in to Ning, if she were to request him to ensure that Yang Wenshus treatment was taken care of. The man would see to it that a good hospital treated her burns.
Any further dy in this regard,would ruin his wifes face forever. Even if a hospital were to start with her treatment immediately, she would have to live with a scarred face and body, all her life.
Shangguan Zheng and Shangguan Rouxue tried in vain to call Ning a number of times but she rejected all their calls.
Shangguan Zheng was so furious that he almost smashed his phone.
This girl had gotten too big for her boots. How dare she reject his call. Back in the day, she wouldnt dare to disobey anything he said. She even agreed to live apromised life by getting engaged with Xie Zhuojun, even though he was in aa. The same girl, today, didnt care about her father.
Shangguan Zheng forced himself to calm down and think rationally. He could do anything to salvage his political career. What he needed to do was to make an unconditional apology to his daughter, so as to win her back. It cost nothing.
He couldnt tolerate the loneliness and disappointment that came with loss of power. If he lost the position of Deputy-Mayor, then the same people who hailed him as a hero, would not think twice before treating him like trash.
He was aware that once he became the Mayor, it was only the beginning. It would provide him with a chance to even more power and glory. He would not have to answer to anyone in the city and his days of reporting to someone else would be over.
He was eager to be the Mayor, because only by bing the Mayor will he get even bigger power and glory.
He had been the scapegoat for Mayor Ji Minyu too many times. He had had enough.
Shangguan Zheng got into his car and drove to Compound Landscape, following the directions and address given to him by Shangguan Rouxue.
The security guard of the Compound stopped him at the gate itself, refusing to let him in.
The guard rolled his eyes when Shangguan Zheng introduced himself as the deputy mayor of the city.
He said Those who live at ourpound are high profile individuals. Even if the Mayor were to visit, he would need a permit to enter thepound. If theres someone who has invited you here, you could ask them to call our property management or toe and fetch you, in person. That should solve the problem.
The previous security guard at Landscape Compound had made the mistake of letting Shangguan Nings aunt in, thest time, so this one was well aware of the chain of events that followed. Jing Yichen hadined to the property management and had the whole team sacked. No strangers were allowed to enter the premises without a permit. The security guard did not want to risk losing his job.
Shangguan Zheng was livid. He had no choice but to wait at the gate, like amoner.
No one woulde and pick him up at the gate if Shangguan Ning refused to answer his calls.
Luckily, he was fortunate enough to bump into Shangguan Ning soon.
Shangguan Ning, who was seated on the passengers seat of Jing Yichens car, had already noticed Shangguan Zhengs car from a distance.
In order to show the world that he lived a life well within his means, Shangguan Zheng always made sure to use the ck Audi A6, which was given to him by the government, as a perk of his job. The car wasnt new and had an ordinary number te. Even then, Shangguan Ning recognized it immediately.
As their car approached, Shangguan Zheng had already noticed Shangguan Ning, so he stepped out of his car.
Jing Yichen fumed at the sight of him.
He had always thought that his own father, Jing Zhongxiu, was not a good father. What he didnt expect was that Shangguan Nings father would turn out to be a hundred times worse than Jing Zhongxiu.
At least Jing Zhongxiu lived by certain principles. If Jingsheng Enterprise were to go bankrupt the following day, he would never sell out his two sons.
Shangguan Zheng, on the other hand, didnt hesitate for a minute before using Shangguan Ning as bait, for the sake of furthering his political ambitions. Not once but twice.
He had no idea how Shangguan Ning managed to get live her life with such a family, for the past two decades.
Shangguan Zheng was always used to receiving attention and adtion wherever he went. He simmered with anger, when Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen looked at him with indifference.
It didnt matter how they behaved with him as long as he got what he wanted. He had been in the political circles for too long now and had be thick skinned.
He went up to Shangguan Ning and smiled amiably, as he said to her. Ning, I am here to speak with you.
Shangguan Ning was surprised to see her father smile. He hardly ever smiled. In fact, ever since her mother passed away, he had never smiled at her. He was always angry or unhappy whenever they met. She was used to him scolding her and siding with Shangguan Rouxue.
Somehow, she knew that her father was upto no good at the moment.
Although she hated him for not caring about her enough and for scheming with Jing Yiran to drug her, she was not as ruthless as he was.
He was, after all, her father. He had given her life and taken care of her for all those years.
Shangguan Ning opened the door of the car and got off.
She hadnt called him Daddy for many years now.
She asked him casually, What are you doing here?
I... For a moment, Shangguan Zheng was speechless. He had no idea what to say to his daughter. He found it so strange that he had to make small talk with his own daughter.
He was still thinking of what to say, when Jing Yichen opened the car door and stepped out.
There was his chance. He said, When did you get a boyfriend? Why didnt you tell the family?
Seeing Jing Yichen whoe and stood by her side protectively, Shangguan Ning became more confident. She hesitated for a moment and then introduced the two. This is Jing Yichen, my husband. Yichen, this is my... father!
Standing next to Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen realised that the red patch on her face hadnt gone awaypletely. He said to Shangguan Zheng politely, How do you do, Deputy-Mayor Shangguan? Your wife threw hot coffee on Nings face. Shes still recovering, so I dont think its wise for her to stand here, exposed to the sunlight, for so long. We should be going in now. If theres anything that you need, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me.
Shangguan Zheng heard nothing of what he said. What Shangguan Ning had said was enough to zone out everything else. What did you say, Ning? Your husband? You are... married?
Hang on! Wait! What did you say his name was? Jing Yichen? The Jing Yichen. He who is the President of Jingsheng Enterprise?

Chapter 102: Back to Family Jing Together

What Shangguan Ning had just said, was too much information for Shangguan Zheng to process. He felt suffocated.
The man in front of him was the heir of Family Jing, the new President of Jingsheng Enterprise C Jing Yichen!
Since the end ofst year, this name had appeared in newspapers, on television and a lot of other media, numerous times, for all the right reasons. How could this be? He had turned out to be Shangguan Nings husband!
Everything that had been happening with Shangguan Zhengs family over thest few weeks, now madeplete sense. No wonder this man was so proud. After all, he was able to control almost everything. Be it the resorts at N City or the hospitals at A City. No wonder that Jing Yiran, whom no one dared to mess with, failed at his mission.
Shangguan Zheng had been trying hard to get an appointment to meet with the new President of Jingsheng Enterprise. What he didnt expect was that this is how he would meet him. That Shangguan Ning would be married to him. This President, who had hundreds of billions of yuan, owned so many properties, who was the heir to Jingsheng Enterprise, was his son-inw!
This was simply amazing. Even God was on his side. He only wondered as to why did it always have to be Shangguan Ning who could help him whenever he needed to take his political aspirations further? Years ago, when he wanted to be deputy mayor, she had agreed to get engaged to the heir of the Xie family, who in return, funded his election campaign. Now that he had his eyes on the post of the mayor, she hade to his rescue again.
As long as he revealed to the people that mattered, that Jing Yichen was his son-inw, nothing would stop him from bing the Mayor of A City!
Shangguan Ning still didnt understand what her father was here for. He wouldnt stop smiling and she found his behaviour weird.
In fact,her father looked absolutely abnormal at this moment.
Under normal circumstances, her father wouldnt let go of even one opportunity to shout at her. He would be upset with her for having married someone without letting him know, but Shangguan Zheng did no such thing. Instead of scolding his daughter, he seemed thrilled. She wondered if he had gonepletely crazy?
Jing Yichen frowned. He wasnt sure why was Shangguan Zheng even here.
He thought that Shangguan Zheng hade here to demand an exnation for what had happened to his wife. Yichen had seen to it that none of the hospitals at A City would treat Yang Wenshu. Maybe Shanguan Zheng had realised the error of his wifes ways and he hade here to beg for mercy, for his wifes sake.
It didnt seem like that at this moment, though.
Shangguan Zheng came back to his senses after a while. He said tenderly, Its good that you are married, Ning. Good. Im happy. You are an adult now, and Jing... Yichen loves you so much that I am at peace. Alright, it is very sunny here. Youd better go inside now.
Oh, as for your mo... your Aunt Yang, I came here to apologise to you. She doesnt know anything. How dare she hurt you? I have scolded her. Her face is scarred too and she is in pain, but everyone gets what they deserve. Maybe she deserves this. You have done a great job!
Having said this, he patted Shangguan Nings back, just like a loving father would.
Shangguan Ning couldnt believe what had just happened, even after her father got into his car and drove away.
What was going on here? Shangguan Zheng seemed to havepletely changed. She didnt feel loved. Instead, she felt scared!
He came to apologize for Yang Wenshu?
He couldnt havee to apologize for her even if the sun rose from the west!
After observing this drama, Jing Yichen understood what Shangguan Zhengs real motive was. His heart ached for Shangguan Ning even more, after he understood the situation. He wondered how much did Ning have to put up with, all these years, for having a father like Shangguan Zheng?
He led his wife, who was still in shock, back into the car andforted her, Mu Qing said that you should be away from the sun for a few days, to ensure a speedy recovery. Lets go home.
Shangguan Ning still didnt know what Shangguan Zhengs purpose for visiting her was. All she knew was that his behaviour had been absolutely abnormal today.
She was afraid that Shangguan Zheng would take advantage of Jing Yichen, so she said anxiously, Yichen, no matter what hees to you for, you must ignore him. He can do anything for his selfish ambitions. You must be careful. You dont need to meet him if he asks for you. Just let hime to me if he needs something. I know his ways and Im aware of the kind of person he is. You neednt worry about me getting trapped.
Shangguan Zheng knew her father too well. If something did not benefit him, in any way, he had no regard for it. She realised that she was of no use to her father, but Jing Yichen, the most powerful man in A City, was.
Jing Yichen felt ted, seeing Shangguan Ning worry about him. With one hand on the steering wheel and the other running through her hair, he drove the car into thepound and said softly, It is alright, I understand. Dont worry.
She knew what her father was capable of, so she couldnt help worrying about Jing Yichen. She feared that he would be taken advantage of, so she was even more stressed. She was like a bird that opened its wings to shield him from all the wrong. Jing Yichen had never felt like this before.
Everyone took him to be cold and ruthless, incapable of having any feelings. Everyone woulde to him to find solutions to their problems, without worrying about how much they added to his stress.
Only Shangguan Ning cared enough to want to protect him from those who may not have his best interests at heart.
She had never thought about taking advantage of his contacts or his wealth.
People approached him for whatever reasons, wanting to benefit from him in some way or the other. Few people cared about him, from their heart.
He was lucky enough to have met Shangguan Ning, amongst the crowd. This kind of woman was worth caring for, his entire life.
Ning, I met your father today. I will take you to the Family Jing House in a couple of days, so that you can meet my family. The same rule applies here. If anyonees to you, you can ignore them. Leave them to me. You dont know them, and you can easily be fooled by them.
With him by her side, Shangguan Ning felt less anxious and she smiled.
She leaned her head against Jing Yichens shoulders. She felt so secure, as if his broad shoulders would keep her safe against all the hardships of life, and help her to live in peace.
Jing Yichen had kept Shangguan Ningpany at the hospital for four days in a row. He didnt leave the hospital until Mu Qing repeatedly assured him that Shangguan Nings face waspletely cured and needed no more medicine.
He took Shangguan Ning to Family Jing that evening.
Family Jings garden-like vi was situated halfway up a mountain. It was under 24 hour surveince. The advantage of living on a high-altitude terrain was that one had an unhindered view of the mountain slope. Before Jing Yichens car had even entered the gates of the Family Jing House, news of his arrival had already been reported to all staff.
The Butler had already been waiting at the entrance, with an entourage of servants. When Jing Yichens car reached the gates, the Butler spotted Shangguan Ning sitting beside Elder Master.
He understood that she must have been the Lady because of whom, Elder Master punched the Second Master. The brothers had had a tiff and at the end of it, Second Master wasnt even in the condition to stand on his own two feet, without assistance.
Since then, the Second Master had been grounded. He had been home for a month and a half.
Chapter 103 - His Family
Chapter 103: His Family
Jing Yichen helped Shangguan Ning get off the car. He held her protectively to ensure that she didnt hurt herself. Seeing Elder Master care for thedy, the Butler was certain about who this woman was and how important she was to him. He shouted out in excitement, Wee home, Master and Lady!
Most of the staff at the Family Jing House didnt know that Jing Yichen was already married. If Second Master Jing Yiran were to bring a woman home someday and dere that he was married to her, no one would raise an eyebrow. In case of Elder Master, it was different. He was always aloof and chose not to waste his time over women. When he chose to get married and showered his spouse with love and affection, everyone in the family was pleasantly surprised.
All the employees at the Family Jing House had been trained to maintain a professional attitude at all times. They greeted the couple politely. Jing Yichen gave the Butler a brief nod and led Shangguan Ning into the house.
Shangguan Ning realised that everyone was eyeing her with curiosity and anticipation. She greeted them with a nod and smiled at all of them courteously.
They didnt expect the Lady to be so gentle and friendly. They liked her instantly. All these years, no guest had ever taken the effort to be polite to them.
Shangguan Ning followed Jing Yichen into the vi. She couldnt help staring at the vast expanse of the garden andwns, at the house. There were a variety of flowers and well manicured trees. Since it was the onset of spring, all the flowers in the garden were in full bloom. They were a sight to behold.
The vi looked just like a castle, right out of a fairy tale. It looked enchanting and mysterious.
She followed Jing Yichen inside and saw a few familiar faces in the midst of all those seated in the spacious living room.
Mo Lan smiled at her warmly, as soon as she saw her. She wanted to pull Ning to the side, in order to have a closer look at her, when Jing Yichen stepped up and introduced them.
Ning, this is Grandma, said Jing Yichen affectionately.
Shangguan Ning smiled at her. Hello, Grandma!
Hello, my lovely child! Before I forget, here is your present. Wee to the family. I am so happy to see you. I hope I didnt scare you thest time we met, did I? Mo Lan took Nings hands into hers and surveyed her grandsons wife, from head to toe.
Her granddaughter-inw was not only good-looking but also elegant and loving. The olddy took to her immediately. Her wish came true. Finally someone had been able to capture the heart of Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning was embarrassed at the mention of theirst meeting. She blushed.
She took grandmas present and thanked her. Ning said, No, I wasnt scared. I am... sorry... I havent got anything for you.
Oh you dont need to. Im d youre here.
Seeing his wife taking up all of Shangguan Nings time and attention, without even letting her meet with the others in the room, Jing Tianyuan wasnt happy. He coughed and managed to catch his wifes attention, who stopped speaking.
Jing Yichen held Shangguan Ning and gently led her forward to meet the rest of his family.
This is Grandpa.
Shangguan Ning smiled and said, Hello Grandpa!
The old man nodded formally but soon realized that he may havee across as a little too serious. So he smiled awkwardly at Shangguan Ning and gave her a wee present.
Shangguan Ning expressed her gratitude to him, epting his present.
In her eyes, the men of the three generations of Family Jing, were carved out using the same temte. Jing Yichen looked like Jing Zhongxiu, who in turn looked like his father, Jing Tianyuan.
This is father.
Shangguan Ning saw Jing Zhongxiu smiling at her, when she met his eyes. Shyly, she said to him, Hello Father.
She had called him Uncle Jing, thest time she had met him. How things had changed. Destiny had a strange way of bringing people together.
Jing Zhongxiu had always been fond of Shangguan Ning. He had always envisioned his future daughter-inw to be exactly like her. He was very happy, seeing her standing next to Jing Yichen.
Maybe his old friend Huang Liyan didnt know what a treasure his niece was. Huang Liyan surely didnt know that Ning had married had Jing Yichen, otherwise he would have said something about it when Jing Zhongxiu and he went fishing together, a couple of days ago.
He was definitely going to surprise Huang Liyan with this good news, when they met next.
The impression he had got about Shangguan Ning was that she was a simple and innocent girl. He hoped that she would stay like this forever, unaffected by all the negativity around her. He did not speak with her in the strict tone in which he spoke with his sons. He lovingly gave her the present he had gotten for her and said, Time flies quickly. Now you are a beautiful, youngdy. If Yichen dares to bully you in the future, let me know and Ill take care of it.
Everyone looked at him, as he said this. Just like his son Jing Yichen, Jing Zhongxiu too was an introvert. He spoke with people only when he needed to. He would never speak with anyone with so much warmth, unless the person was dear to him. Clearly, this was not the first time Shangguan Ning had met Jing Zhongxiu.
Jing Yichen was the most surprised. He couldnt help but look at the two of them. He wondered how Shangguan Ning had managed to impress his father, Jing Zhongxiu, in such a short time.
He knew his father loved him, but ever since his childhood, he had craved for his fathers appreciation. Nothing he ever did, seemed good enough, in the eyes of his father. He realised that Shangguan Ning had somehow charmed all the seniors of his family. They had only just met her but were already so fond of her.
Jing Yiran and Zhang Rong were also seated there. They were stunned at Jing Zhongxius affectionate behaviour towards Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning was the only one who didnt find it weird. Jing Zhongxiu had always been warm and loving towards her. He reminded her of her uncle.
When it came to Jing Yiran and Zhang Rong, Jing Yichens love and affection disappeared. He said, in a serious tone, This woman is Mrs. Jing. This man is her son. You know, the one who enjoys being punched by me.
As soon as Jing Yichen said this, Zhang Rong and Shangguan Ning looked at each other, an awkward silence between them. Only Jing Yiran kept his smile intact, as if Jing Yichen wasnt referring to him at all.
Jing Yiran wanted to punch his older brother, right there and then but he didnt dare to behave like this in the presence of Jing Zhongxiu.
Instead, he said with a smirk, Greetings Sister! You have be prettier since I saw youst.
Brat, youd better behave yourself. Mo Lan shouted loudly hearing Jing Yiran speak nonsense.
Zhang Rong was afraid that her husband would get angry with Jing Yiran too so she deftly changed the topic. She handed her gift to Shangguan Ning with a smile and said, I picked this specially for you. Please have a look at it. I hope you like it.
Shangguan Ning had wanted to keep the present aside for now, but hearing Zhang Rong say all this, she had to open the box.
The moment she saw what was inside the box, the blood drained out of her face and she turned pale.
Chapter 104 - The Extraordinary Greeting Present
Chapter 104: The Extraordinary Greeting Present
Shangguan Nings shut the box and held on to it tightly.
She was in a daze and it seemed as if she would faint. Jing Yichen instantly held on to her and supported her. He asked,his voice full of concern, Ning, what is wrong? Are you feeling unwell?
It took a while for Shangguan Ning to get a hold of herself. She still looked pale. She asked Zhang Rong, Please, Mrs. Jing, would you please tell me where did you get this ne from?
Zhang Rong subconsciously turned towards her son, Yiran.
It was Jing Yiran who had decided to present Shangguan Ning with this ne. His mother had no idea why did Shangguan Ning feel sick after seeing the present. Zhang Rong had had no time to get Shangguan Ning a present. Her visit was so unexpected. When Jing Yiran showed his mother this ne and suggested that she should gift this to Ning, she had agreed immediately.
What on earth was it that frightened Shangguan Ning to this degree?
She didnt want to embarrass Jing Yichens wife at their first meeting and that too in front of her husband and her inws. Honestly even if Zhang Rong did have any plot up her sleeve, against Shangguan Ning, she wouldnt bring it to y,in this crude manner. She would do it discreetly and on the sly.
Jing Yirans heart was satiated seeing Shangguan Nings reaction. He looked at her and said menacingly, Oh yeah? Did you like it? The gift was my idea.
Jing Yichen frowned. He was mad at Jing Yiran. He wished he could tear him apart.
Shangguan Ning turned to Jing Yiran and asked with a trembling voice, Where did you get this ne from?
This ne cost me a great deal of money. As for where it is from... I will tell you when I am in a better mood. Ive been punched by someone repeatedly, so I havent been in a good moodtely. Maybe Ill feel better if someone pampers me. Thats the only way my brain will work well enough to remember it.
Shangguan Ning so wanted to force Jing Yiran to answer her question right away, but she knew she had to be patient because he wasnt going to tell her so easily.
She mumbled under her breath, I will definitely find out the answer.
Seeing Shangguan Ning bite her lips, Jing Yichen felt his heart ache. He knew she was upset but he had no idea why. Why was the ne so important to her. He had had enough. He went up to Jing Yiran and pulled him by his cor. He warned him, You bettere up with the answer, otherwise you will have to lie in bed for the rest of your life...
Stop it, Chen, what are you doing?! Why do you two brothers fight, whenever you meet each other? Let go of your brother! Are you trying to strangle him to death?!
Mo Lan stopped Yichen immediately.
Zhang Rong, who was standing there, couldnt bear to see her son being bullied by his older brother,and that too in front of everyone. Tears trickled down her cheeks. Her son was her weakness.
Jing Tianyuan and Jing Zhongxiu didnt say a word but their bitter expressions spoke a thousand words. They were both upset seeing the brothers break into a fight, yet again.
The rxed and jovial atmosphere of the day was ruined, all because of a ne.
Shangguan Ning instantly grabbed hold of Jing Yichen arm and pleased, Please, Yichen, let him go. All the seniors are here. I can ask him about itter.
Thest thing she wanted was that Jing Yichen have conflicts with his family, because of her.
She knew that Jing Yiran must have nned to give her the ne today, in order to annoy her and Jing Yichen.
Had he guessed that she was definitely to ask him about this ne?
Of course she wanted to know where the ne was from, but this wasnt the right time for it. She felt so nostalgic and emotional having seen the ne, but she had to keep her emotions in check and wait for a little while longer.
Hearing what Shangguan Ning had to say, Jing Yichen held himself back. Jing Yiran, who had got breathless when Yichen held him by his cor, could finally breathe again. He couldnt help feeling victorious because his devious n had worked.
Zhang Rongs eyes were full of hatred when she looked at Jing Yichen but she wiped her tears and smiled. She invited everyone to the dinner table. Shangguan Ning could feel the conflict in Zhang Rongs heart.
She looked at Zhang Rong. She realised that she was actually quite familiar with Rongs behaviour, because she too had lived with a step mother, until a few years ago.
The servants soon arranged the table and the entire family gathered around the western-style table for dinner.
Shangguan Ning had no appetite for any food.
At Family Jings table, the family members preferred enjoying their meal in silence. This was an old tradition,which they followed religiously.
Jing Yichen hadnt nned to eat at Family Jing, especially since he hadnt eaten a meal here for over ten years. He just found the vibe at the house to be very cold and unweing.
Since it was Shangguan Nings first time here and he didnt want them to leave abruptly, he made an exception and joined the family for dinner. She was, after all, thedy of the house. She would be the future hostess of Jingsheng Enterprise. She ought to be part of this family dinner.
Jing Zhongxiu was happy to see his older son and daughter-inw, both eating dinner with the family. His son hadnt been home for many years.
He was sure that Jing Yichen had made the right choice by choosing Shangguan Ning as his life partner. Jing Yichen had changed tremendously. Though he was still cold and distant, yet he was more human like now rather than a walking corpse. He cared a great deal about Shangguan Ning, which meant that this rtionship was important to him..
He had thought that his son had only ever cared about Tang Yun. He hadnt met her in ten years. It finally seemed that Jing Yichen was over all that and had moved on with his life.
Jing Zhongxiu was aware that he had always deprived Jing Yichen of his love. Zhang Rong, had repeatedly asked, requested and sometimes even coaxed Jing Zhongxiu to give her son, Jing Yiran, his share of Jingsheng Enterprise. Jing Yiran made enough money to fund his fun escapades and his father hade to ept the fact that he may have to eventually finances Yirans lifestyle.
Family Jing held a lot of real estate. Maybe Jing Yiran could handle that portfolio someday. That being said, Jing Yiran had no right over any part of Jingsheng Enterprise. It belonged wholly and solely to Jing Yichen.
Jing Zhongxiu had made a promise to his first wife, Jing Yichens mother, that Jingsheng Enterprise would belong to Jing Yichen alone.
He didnt care to admit it yet but Jing Zhongxiu was relieved, now that his older son had settled down and found himself a woman, who cared for him the way Shangguan Ning did. Jing Yichen now had his own family.
After dinner, Mo Lan chatted with Shangguan Ning for a while, urging her to give her a great grandchild as soon as possible. Shangguan Ning was very embarrassed, yet nodded along.
Jing Yichen and Jing Zhongxiu were in the study, discussing work. When they were done, Jing Yichen came out to find an embarrassed Shanguan Ning listening to Mo Lan speaking of advantages of having children within the first few years of marriage.
Shangguan Nings eyes saw Jing Yichen and she looked at him, as if pleading to be rescued from this discussion.
Jing Yichen smiled. He nodded at Mo Lan who understood that she had said too much, thereby saving Shangguan Ning the torment of having to listen to all the unsolicited advice his grandmother had to offer.
Chapter 105 - I Will Get Them Divorced
Chapter 105: I Will Get Them Divorced
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning quickly bid goodbye to the olddy. Before she left, she heard her mumble, This grandson of mine hasnt been with a woman before, somehow I can forgive him for not having a child yet but my other grandson is a brat. He fools around with so many women, even then I had the fortune of seeing a great grandchild. Please God, have mercy, please bless me so that I live long enough to y with my great-grandchild!
Jing Yiran was in the midst of a discussion with his mother.
Ran, now that your brother is married, when will it be your turn? Youd better get married soon and have a child quickly. The way things are going, its very likely that they will have a child before you do and the child will inherit everything. You wont have anything left to inherit, by the time you decide to have children.
I am the second heir to Family Jing! What do you mean by there will be nothing left? Father has said that he is going to give us a huge amount of properties. What is the point of having a child? I dont want to get married just to produce an heir.
Jing Yiran was done with this discussion. He did not know why he was so worked up ever since he saw Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning walking through the Family Jing gardens, hand in hand.
Seeing her son distracted and turning a deaf ear to her advice, Zhang Rong burst into tears.
I have been tolerating all this for so many years, only for your sake. If you had worked even a little hard, your father wouldnt have handed over the entire enterprise over to your brother! That business is worth hundreds of billions of yuan, something your brother wont be able to handle by himself. You are also Jing Zhongxius son, then why have you got nothing to show for it.
Ran, please listen to me! You must go and talk with your father about a chance at managing Jingsheng enterprise, alongside your brother. I wouldve said something myself, and God knows I have, but your father never listens to me. Maybe your words will make a difference. Look at this vi, so enormous and magnificent. This is a symbol of our identity. Do you want to be driven out of this ce by him and his wife,ter?
Your grandma has been looking forward to spoiling her great-grandson. If you have a child first, you will definitely inherit arger share of the estate. You have so many women that you fool around with. Why cant you just pick one whoes from a decent family, and have a baby first? You need not do anything more than ensuring that you have a baby. Child birth is a womans problem. Once a woman is pregnant with your child, you can go back to your foolhardy ways. No one is going to restrain you.
Jing Yiran couldnt help but say, Mom, is money that important to you? So important that you are alright with me having a child with any random woman? Are you doing this out of your love for me or for money? You married my father for his money, but are you really happy? You cant even meet your friends or go out at will. What youre suggesting will only make one more woman miserable.
Zhang Rongs broke down after listening to her son. She was unable to speak.
Jing Yiran understood that he had gone too far, but if he hadnt said anything now, his mother was very capable of choosing a woman he should get married to and even ensure that they spend a night together.
He didnt want his life after marriage, to be a facade. He didnt want to live a life where he and his wife pretended to be a perfect couple in front of the world, but had no personal connection with each other. He didnt want to repeat his parents mistake.
He wanted to marry a woman he loved and to live a happy life, like a normal couple.
Why did Jing Yichen have to be better than him, at everything? Why did Jing Yichen have a wife who loved him so deeply, whilst the women he hung out with only craved for his money and his good looks?
Mom, you dont need to worry about my marriage. I know what to do. What you need to do is to take good care of yourself. Our family has so much money and father has never been stingy. You can buy whatever you want, and stop thinking about how to get the estate divided. As for Jing Yichen, you dont need to worry about him either. He and his wife will not have a long and happy marriage, because they are definitely going to get divorced very soon!
If he wasnt able to find someone who was better than Shangguan Ning, then it wouldnt hurt to get her to be by his side.
If he didnt find a wife to keep himpany for life, then it was only fair that Jing Yichen mustnt have one either.
Zhang Rong stared at him in surprise. She said in disbelief, What did you say? They will get divorced??
They were newly married and Jing Yichen apparently really cared about Shangguan Ning. How would they possibly get divorced?
Although her son never did anything seriously malicious yet, she knew that anything he put his mind to, never failed. She believed that her son really meant what he said. He wasnt being casual.
Wouldnt it be great if Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning were to get divorced?
At that time, even Jing Yichens reputation would take a beating. Jingsheng Enterprise would most likely be handed over to her own son. She couldnt wait for that day toe.
...
Jing Yichen had thought about driving Shangguan Ning back to Landscape Compound, but Shangguan Ning was very keen to see the ce where Jing Yichen spent his childhood. She suggested that they could even stay there overnight.
Its not some fancy, scenic ce. Its very ordinary, Shangguan. Jing insisted. Jing Yichen held her hand and even though he wasnt very keen, he still took her there. They went through the garden and into a vi, that was one amongst many others.
The vi was small but still spacious enough for one person.
No one lived there currently, except for some housekeeping staff who were in charge of its maintenance. When they entered the vi, it looked so empty and isting.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help feeling a little sad for Jing Yichen. She held his hand and asked him lovingly, You lived here... alone?
Jing Yichen nodded. It wasnt a big deal. Yes, I lived alone. Our family lived in separate vis. We didnt meet, except for meals, at the main house.
The vi was quiet and isted. Shangguan Ning finally realized why Jing Yichen didnt want to live in this vi even though it came with a beautiful view. He chose to move out of this ce and live in a high rise apartment instead.
He probably felt lonely. He had no family who shared it this vi with him. The housecked warmth and love that came from living with your loved ones.
If it had been for her, she wouldnt like living here either. People are meant to live with people. Living in istion could be detrimental to a persons temperament.
Her heart ached for Jing Yichen.
She was aware that the two of them had faced simr hardships in their lives but it was only today that she came to realise just how simr. Both of them lost their mothers at childhood and both of them had a stepmother who was two faced. Both of them had a step sibling that they hated.
There was just one difference. Although Jing Zhongxiu was strict with Jing Yichen, yet she could feel that he loved his son very much. He just wasnt good at expressing it. Shangguan Zheng, however, had never been a good father to Ning.
With a heavy heart, Shangguan Ning looked up and asked with a smile. Mr. President, please may I see your room?
Jing Yichen gave her a tour of the entire vi.
He observed that if there was anything in the vi that was even remotely connected to his childhood or youth, she would gush at it. She wanted to hear about his childhood and his life at the vi. She asked him so many questions.
This pair of shoes is yours? Oh God! Why did you wear pink shoes? Isnt pink for girls?
You painted this? You are a good painter but why does this bear in the painting, look like a pig?
This is you when you were little? You werent such a toughie then, I see. You even cried. Hahaha!
And you like white rabbit candies? Me too, but my uncle didnt allow me to eat too many of them because he was worried that my teeth would have cavities.

Chapter 106: The Past of Blood

Jing Yichen was fed up of answering Shangguan Nings questions but she sounded so endearing that he answered all of them patiently.
He couldnt exin what he felt for her.
No one in the past had ever been keen to know so much about his childhood. In fact, sharing stories of his childhood made him relive it.
He realized that things werent as bad as he had imagined them to be.
It was alreadyte by the time they finished the tour of the entire vi.
After her shower, Shangguan Ning sat down on her bed and took out the ne that had been gifted to her. She carefully caressed it with her fingers. Jing Yichen saw the grief on her face. The kind he had never seen before. He took her into his arms, gently.
Shangguan Ning wiped her tears and put away the ne, carefully. She exined to him in a soft voice, This was my mothers ne. She was wearing this ne when she died. It disappeared soon after and was nowhere to be found.
Jing Yichen shivered. No wonder Shangguan Ning had such an extreme reaction when she saw this ne.
He tightened his hug, wishing he could absorb her sorrow and pass on some warmth and strength instead.
Shangguan Ning felt much better after a short while. She continued to lean into Jing Yichens arms and said, My mother killed herself, in front of me. There was so much blood. She died in my arms and I held her for what seemed like forever. I cried for months after the incident. I am yet to find closure because no one told me why she did what she did. I watched her die...
Jing Yichens felt her pain as she was narrating the story.
Before they got married, he had already done some research about Shangguan Ning. He knew that her mother had killed herself, but he didnt know that Shangguan Ning had witnessed the suicide.
This was something a child absolutely could not bear. She was so young back then, so naive. This incident must have definitely had a devastating effect on her heart and mind.
He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. Then he said lovingly, It is okay, Ning. We have each other. Let bygones be bygones...
Shangguan Ning usually didnt dare to think about her past because it was extremely painful. But lying in Jing Yichens arms, her heart felt secure, and the memory of her mothers death was so unbearably sad that she couldnt stop herself from sharing it.
You know, my mother loved me very much. She wouldnt have abandoned me and she would never kill herself if it wasnt for circumstances. I always suspected that someone was responsible for making her do this. But I have such little strength left in me, emotionally, that I havent had the courage to search for any answers. Im actually really happy to have this ne. It doesnt matter what Jing Yirans n is. The fact that this ne is with me, has given me hope.
Jing Yichenforted her, You will find out the truth. I will help you to. You neednt be afraid of him, because he wont dare to do anything to harm you, as long as Im around. He has never been able to beat me since we were little. Do you know why?
Shangguan Ning she asked curiously, Why?
Because I am better looking than he is!
Shangguan Ning had expected to hear a shocking secret, instead, what he said, made her chuckle.
She nodded seriously after she was done giggling. Yes, my husband is most good looking. Better looking than Jing Yiran. Better looking than any other man in the entire world.
Jing Yichen kissed her lips and held her in his arms until she fell asleep.
The following day, after breakfast, both of them were ready to leave the Family Jing House.
When they reached the gates of the vi, they saw Jing Yiran, dressed in casuals, leaning against the wall, charmingly. When he saw theming towards him, he whistled at Shangguan Ning, in a flirtatious manner .
Shangguan Ning ignored him and was about to leave along with Jing Yichen, when Jing Yiran instigated her by saying, Looks like someone slept really wellst night. Maybe no one is interested in knowing how I got the ne and from where.
Shangguan Ning halted for a few seconds. She was finding it hard to keep calm. She wanted to say something to him but she let the moment pass. She was about to get into the car when she heard the sound of bones cracking.
She turned around to see Jing Yichen wringing Jing Yirans arm. He had Jing Yiran pinned against the ground. She was sure Jing Yiran wouldve broken a few bones by now.
Jing Yichen said seethingly, Youd better tell us what you know about ne, otherwise you will suffer a fate that will be a hundred times worse than the pain youre going through right now.
Jing Yiran was in immense pain and his face was contorted. His eyes were sparkling with rage as he stared at Jing Yichen. He warned, Dont be too aggressive, Jing Yichen! You will regret it!
Seeing both the brothers on the verge of beating each other up into pulp, Shangguan Ning quickly ran forward to stop Jing Yichen.
Let go of him, Yichen! He is not worth your time or anger.
Hearing this, Jing Yichen eventually released his grip over Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran stared at Shangguan Ning with bloodshot eyes. He coughed and spat out blood.
The Butler who had witnessed the fight between the siblings, quickly called the doctor from his walkie-talkie.
Shangguan Ning was afraid that if they dyed their departure any further, Jing Yichen would kill Jing Yiran. She seized the moment and quickly pulled Jing Yichen into the car.
After they got into the car, she said to the Butler in an apologetic tone, I am so sorry to have caused you all this trouble.
The Butler had never expected thedy to apologize to him, so he immediately replied with a smile. My Lady is too courteous but you neednt worry. This is my job. Dont stress about Second Master. He always gets injured, and the doctors will be here any minute now. He will be alright soon.
Shangguan Ning thought that as long as Jing Yiran wasnt grievously injured, then all would be fine. She hoped he would now stay in bed and rest it out for a few weeks, instead of causing any more trouble.
She smiled and said, Oh, thats good. Thank you.
Jing Yichen and she, then drove back home.
Only after getting back to their home, did Shangguan Ning breathe a sigh of relief. They changed into their work attire and left for thepany.
As the week progressed, the couple made it a point to get some exercise. They were both fond of tennis, so they visited Big Worlds Tennis Pitch together on afternoons when they both had some time on their hands.
Apart from the time when Shangguan Ning wasnt up to it, the two would y tennis every week. They didnt give it a miss even when she had her hands full with the set up of Liyu Science & Technology.
They got better at their game.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but think of Zhao Anan when she finished with tennis, one evening. She tried to call her but the call didnt get through, as usual.
Zhao Anan had never answered any of her calls in the past two months. She rarely replied to her texts, as she imed that she was in therapy and had limited ess to her phone.
Shangguan Ning had wanted to share the good news of her marriage with Jing Yichen. She was not only her best friend but also the matchmaker. Without Zhao Anan, she might never have met Jing Yichen.
She was indeed very lucky to have found true love at her first blind date.

Shangguan Ning missed Zhao Anan very much, epecially since Anan had been away for so long.
Yichen, why do you think Anan is not back yet? She told me that she was going overseas for some therapy. Do you think she is unwell?
Although Mu Qing assured Shangguan Ning that Zhao Anan was fine, she was still worried. Jin Yichen and she were sitting next to each other, when she voiced her concerns.
Jing Yichen sipped on some water and then hesitatingly asked his wife, Didnt Anan tell you?
Tell me about what?
That she is unwell.
I know, she told me about it. I even saw her drinking Chinese medicine as often as one drinks water. I didnt read too much into it because she looked alright to me.
Shangguan Nings was confused. She had a premonition that Jing Yichen was going to say something terrible about Zhao Anans condition.
What is wrong with her?
Jing Yichen stayed silent for a moment before replying casually. She should be fine. I can take you to visit her, in a couple of days, if you wish.
Hearing Jing Yichen say that Zhao Anan was fine, Shangguan Ning felt less stressed. She was very happy that they both would visit Zhao Anan soon.
Great! We can visit her together. I hope that she wont be too surprised to see us married.
Shangguan Ning hadnt allowed Jing Yichen to tell Zhao Anan that they were now married. She wanted to tell her in person and then thank her formally, for bringing them together.
Jing Yichen held back from mentioning anything else about Zhao Anans health. He couldnt bring himself to upset his wife. She looked so happy at the prospect of meeting with Zhao Anan.
He consoled himself by saying that she would learn of Zhao Anans condition when she met her, anyway.
Three dayster, the couple were onboard a flight to Germany where Shangguan Ning was about to meet her best friend, whom she hadnt seen for a long time.
As soon as they got off the ne, Jing Yichen made a call to someone. He spoke in fluent German. Very soon, two well dressed men came to fetch them from the airport.
Shangguan Nings German wasnt bad either. She was gifted when it came to learningnguages, ever since she was a child. She was able to pick upnguages faster than most people. She could now speak manynguages and hardly ever needed a trantor, whenever she traveled abroad.
She and Jing Yichen got into their chauffeur driven Audi and left to see Zhao Anan immediately.
They drove for around half an hour before they came to hospital that had a vastwn in its front.
Jing Yichen thanked their escorts and then took Shangguan Ning inside.
The hospital was very well maintained. There was ample quiet and the air was fresh. Several patients were talking a walk or doing some stretches on thewn. It looked like a retreat more than a hospital.
Jing Yichen seemed to have visited this ce before. He was familiar with this area. He led her around several buildings and paused in front of a white building. Then he led her in.
The residential quarters of the hospital werent very tall. There were only four floors in this building and Zhao Anan lived on the fourth floor.
Shangguan Ning was very nervous. She hoped that Anan would be alright. She said a little prayer for the well being of her friend. She was d to have Jing Yichen by her side. She held hands with him, anxiously.
Jing Yichen could feel her anxiety. He gave her a hug and said, Anans ward is just around the corner. She has been transferred to the ordinary ward because she just finished with her therapy.
Shangguan Ning was so excited to see Zhao Anan that she did not take the time to process what Jing Yichen had just said. She started to walk towards the ward that Jing Yichen had referred to.
The ward was well done up. The curtains were light green in color and so were the nkets. A bunch of orange daisies ced on a shelf next to each bed, made the room look lively and fresh.
Shangguan Ning went to Zhao Anans bedside and couldnt recognise the girl whoy in it. When she realised that it was indeed her friend, Zhao Anan, Ning almost copsed.
Zhao Anan, who used to be healthy and full of vitality, was lying there feebly. Her skin was so pale that it was almost translucent. Zhao Anan had lost all her hair and in its ce, her scalpy exposed.
Was this the same Zhao Anan who was always so lively and full of energy?!
Shangguan Nings eyes welled up with tears.
Her teardrops fell on Zhao Anans face, waking her up from her sleep.
Zhao Anan opened her eyes and was startled to see Shangguan Ning. Then she closed her eyes and went back to sleep.
She mumbled, Why am I dreaming of you again, Ning?
A momentter, she was wide awake. The person she thought she was dreaming of, was still there, in front of her. Zhao Anan rubbed here eyes as if she couldnt believe what she was seeing.
Shangguan Ning cried bitterly.
It is me, Anan. Shangguan Ning.
Zhao Anan could feel her friends warm skin. She was finally certain that she wasnt dreaming. Her closest friend, Shangguan Ning, was here to see her.
What are you doing here, Ning? I feel so happy to see you.
Shangguan Ning cried so much that she couldnt answer her.
Jing Yichen replied, I brought her here.
Zhao Anan didnt notice until this moment that there was someone else standing beside her. She asked in surprise, Brother? What are you doing here? Did you bring Ning here?
That couldnt have been possible.
Jing Yichen didnt have the heart to share their happy news with Anan, while Anan herself was suffering in a hospital. He asked her where her mother was and then walked out without saying a word. He wanted to give the two friends some space. They hadnt seen each other in so long.
Shangguan Ning was inconsble.
Zhao Anan wasnt someone who knew how tofort others. She hugged her friend gently and let her cry it out. None of them spoke for some time.
Finally Zhao Anan said, My Beauty, can you stop crying? You can cry after I die.
Unexpectedly, this sentence made Shangguan Ning get a grip over her feelings. She instantly stopped crying and said, Please spit. Its bad luck to say all this. Now stop speaking nonsense and take back your words! You are young and impulsive. Im sure God wont take into ount what you just said.
What did Shangguan Ning just say?
Howe Shangguan Ning had be so superstitious? That too in just two months.
So much had changed since the friendsst met.
Shangguan Ning wiped her tears and looked into her friends eyes. She asked softly,Why didnt you tell me anything?
Seeing that Zhao Anan had lost all her hair, Shangguan Ning had guessed that her friend had just undergone chemotherapy.
Zhao Anan touched her bald te and grinned nonchntly, Haha, I am a high watt light bulb. Its okay! Its just hair. It will grow back. Now dont cry!

Chapter 108: Zhao Anans Disease
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Zhao Anan stretched out her hand to wipe off Shangguan Nings tears. Only now did she realize that Shangguan Ning had changed her hairstyle. Enough about me. What happened to your hair? How were you even willing to cut your beautiful hair? I wish I had long hair like yours.
Oh no!! Zhao Anan pat her bald head and said, All this chitchat and I still forgot to ask you howe you happened to visit me with Jing Yichen? He didnt tell anyone about my disease, right ? He has never brought anyone here before. I want details, chirped Zhao Anan, cheerfully.
Seeing her still positive and happy, Shangguan Ning felt less sad than she did a while ago.
Shangguan blushed at Zhao Anans questions. I needed to thank you...
Thank me?!
Yes... we... are married.
Startled, Zhao Anan screamed. Married? You married my brother?
Shangguan Ning nodded and smiled happily. Yes, I married him.
When was it? Why didnt I know about it? Ning, Ning, you how have you hidden such a huge secret!
Zhao Anan pretended to be upset but it only took her a moment to burst intoughter.
See? What did I say? You deserve all the good thingsing your way. You have really be my sister-inw! I am so happy that finally someone is interested in my brother. No woman had been able to impress him. Rumours were that he may be homosexual or impotent ...
Their gossip session did notst for too long, because Jing Yichen interrupted her statement.
Zhao Anan, you have be far more talkative since youve lost your hair. Are you ever going to stop talking or do you have to lose your teeth for that?
Hearing him, Zhao Anans giggles turned into ttery. She said sweetly , Brother, you are the best! I have always admired you. Didnt you know that?
Jing Yichen ignored her jibes with a smile. He then turned to introduce the woman beside him, to Shangguan Ning.
Ning, this is Aunt, Anans mother.
Shangguan Ning quickly stood up and greeted her. Hello, Aunt, I am Shangguan Ning.
Zhao Zhao had recently heard about Jing Yichens marriage. She had spent the past two months taking care of Zhao Anan in Germany and rarely contacted her family. Jing Yichens mother, Zhao Qing, was Zhao Zhaos sister. Ever since Zhao Qing passed away, Zhao Zhao had not kept in touch with Jing Zhongxiu and his family. She hadnt been able to forgive him for her sisters death, nor was she interested in hearing about his second marriage. So she had only stayed in touch with Jing Yichen.
After Jing Yichen lost his mother, Zhao Zhao had always tried hard to take good care of her sisters only son. She always regarded him as her own son. She was extremely worried when Jing Yichen, who was already in his thirties, hadnt found a wife, so she kept looking around for an eligible woman for him. That was when Zhao Anan came into the picture. Her mum had promised to give her 100,000 yuan as pocket money, if she were able to introduce him with a girl worthy of Jing Yichen.
She didnt believe that this good for nothing daughter of hers had finally done something right. The match clicked and the couple looked to be so in love with each other.
She had heard about Shangguan Ning before. Zhao Anan had spoken of her, often. She smiled, because now she could finally put a face to the name. It was so good to see Zhao Zhao happy, even if it was for a short while. She looked so pale because of all the stress about her daughters sickness.
Oh my, good child. Its so good to finally meet you. Zhao Anan talks about you all the time and now we are family. Isnt that amazing. My sister, in heaven, would be so happy to see that she has been blessed with such a good daughter-inw!
Tears trickled down her face, as she spoke.
Before Shangguan Ning was able tofort her, Zhao Anan said with displeasure. Mom, she came here to visit me. All the way to Germany. Cant we talk about something cheerful? With all the crying you and Ning have been doing, your eyes are going to look like peaches. No need for dinner then, lets just eat peaches.
Zhao Zho had been sad but now she started to ask Shangguan Ning various questions. Her mood had improved and she chatted with Ning, happily.
Shangguan Ning finally understood how Zhao Anan had such a happy personality. She had inherited it from her mother.
Although Zhao Anan was in a good mood, her sickness made her tire out very easily.
Shangguan Ning talked with her a little while before she left her so that Zhao Anan could get some rest. She promised that she would visit her again in the evening. Then she and Jing Yichen left the hospital and checked into a hotel nearby.
When they came to the hotel, Shangguan Ning asked Jing Yichen angrily, Why didnt you tell me that she is so unwell?
Jing Yichen smiled helplessly. He knew that Shangguan Ning was annoyed with him. That is why she hadnt said a word to him, on the way to the hotel.
He held Shangguan Nings hands and swept her into his arms. He exined, Thats how Anan wanted it to be. She didnt want others to know that she is sick. She especially didnt want you to know. She knew you would stress.
Annoyed as Shangguan Ning was at him for not telling the truth, she knew that it wasnt the time for her to throw a tantrum. She asked fearfully, She has cancer, doesnt she...?
How bad is it? How many more sessions of chemotherapy is she going to need?
She really didnt want to say the C word, but she had toe to terms with it. Jing Yichen went on to say,
It is cancer. Cancer of the ovary.
Shangguan Ning felt dizzy. As if all the energy of her body had drained away.
Howe??
She was so young and full of life. How could she get ovarian cancer? This was a disease generally contracted by middle aged women.
Jing Yichen held her and helped her sit down on the sofa.
Dont worry, her condition is under control. Two months of chemotherapy has put the cancer cells into remission. The doctor says that as long as she can be regrly examined and diligently follows the hospitals treatment n, she will be fine.
Shangguan Ning looked up. Her eyes were bloodshot, from all the crying. She asked with hope in her voice, Is that true, Yichen? You arent lying to me? You are telling me the truth now?
Jing Yichen nodded and said seriously, It is true. She was diagnosed with this disease, a couple of years ago. She had gone to the hospital to get an abortion.
What? Shangguan Ning was startled. Zhao Anan had had an abortion? Howe?
Jing Yichen understood that it was a lot of unpleasant new for Shangguan Ning to handle, in a span of a few hours. He continued to hold her, hoping to make her feel better.
Yes, Anan has had an abortion before. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise because that is when they discovered that she had ovarian cancer. It was an early discovery so treatment started immediately. The cancer was only on the first stage. Shepletely recovered. She woulde to Germany for regr examinations, to prevent it from reappearing. The cancer had rpsed and they found out about it in Decemberst year. She has been here since then, undergoing treatment.
But will it...
Shangguan Ning was about to ask Yichen something, but she stopped. She really didnt want to say rpse. She feared that she would jinx her friends well being by saying it.
Jing Yichen shook his head and said gently, It is hard to say, right now. A rpse might ur or she may bepletely cured. But...

Chapter 109: Who Got Anan Pregnant?
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
But what? Tell me! Shangguan Ning asked anxiously. She had received way too many mental blows today and had no control over her emotions. She was extremely nervous. She hoped that there wasnt any more bad news in store for her. She waited for Jing Yichen to say something.
Jing Yichen thought for a moment and decided to tell Shangguan Ning what was on his mind. If Zhao Anan really could not have a child in the future or if she chose to not get married, he would be willing to look after her, all of her life because she was his sister. He would need Shangguan Ning to be aware of all these possibilities.
But, she may not be able to get pregnant in the future. Also, if the cancer rpses, she would have to have her ovaries removed.
Hearing Jing Yichens words, Shangguan Ning be really sad. She suddenly thought of all the times when Zhao Anan would say, I dont see myself getting married.
Shangguan Ning had always thought that Zhao Anan was just saying all this in jest. She had no idea how serious Zhao Anan actually was.
Zhao Anan mustve known that this disease would negate her chances of getting pregnant, so she had decided not to get married, altogether.
For a woman, it was heartbreaking to not be able to have her own children or her own family.
Had it not been Zhao Anans easygoing personality and jovial nature, she might have gone into depression.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but feel dejected. She mumbled. Mu Qing is from a family of brilliant doctors. Could they not do anything about it?
Jing Yichen shook his head. No, they couldnt. This German hospital is a top-notch cancer care center in the world. The dean of this hospital has won a Nobel Prize in medicine. The hospital possesses state of the art equipment, when ites to oncology. Mu Qings grandpa is very experienced, but he is not an oncologist. After all, we are yet to find a cure to cancer.
It was Mu Qing who medically terminated Anans pregnancy.
Shangguan Ning was astonished, Mu Qing? Who was it who got her pregnant?
Jing Yichen sighed, smiling bitterly. That would be Mu Qing too!
Shangguan Ning asked, in utter disbelief, What?!
Shangguan Ning thought of the times whenever Zhao Anan met Mu Qing, and tried to remember if she ever sensed an undercurrent between them. She hadnt. They both would fool around with each other and joke around, just like friends do. She had no inkling that they were a couple.
Jing Yichen understood that it all sounded hard to believe but that was the truth.
That was the first surgery that Mu Qing ever did. It was he, who discovered the cancer cells in Anans ovaries. They were both young back then, and were scared of their families. They knew that they would be med, when she got pregnant. They decided to abort the child immediately and you know the rest.
And will they ever...
Jing Yichen knew what his wife wanted to ask, so he said, Mu Qing has a legacy to carry forward and the responsibility of a hospital, he definitely cant marry an infertile woman. After his parents got to know about him and Anan, they disapproved. Anan didnt want to hold him back from his work and family, so they decided to separate. They are friends now.
Mu Qing had asked about Zhao Anan when Shangguan Ning had visited the hospital, the other day. She had thought that he was just asking her casually . Now she understood that he was genuinely worried about Anan.
Zhao Anan looked much better, the following day.
She had had a good nights sleep and was done with all her therapy sessions. She just needed rest.
This hospital had a fully equipped kitchen and ensured that all the patients ate healthy. Nutritious meals were served to all. Zhao Zhao was happy to note that Zhao Anan, who didnt have much of an appetite all these weeks, was eating better, with Shangguan Ning around.
Zhao Zhao was very happy.
Zhao Anan looked lively and was more of a chatterbox, since Shangguan Ning had arrived. She never stopped smiling.
The two girls had so much to catch up on. The ward would now echo with theirughter and they talked for hours on end.
Zhao Zhao was so d that her daughter had found a good friend in Shangguan Ning. She took Shangguan Nings hands in hers, and told her on more than one asion, that she was a lucky star, for Zhao Anan and for Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning didnt say anything. She only smiled. In fact, it was Zhao Anan and Jing Yichen who were her lucky stars.
Due to his hectic work schedule, Jing Yichen stayed in Germany for only one more day, before he flew to Australia.
Shangguan Ning kept Zhao Ananpany in Germany, for a week. Her heart was finally at peace, seeing Zhao Anan getting better each day. She decided it was time for her to head back home and to work.
Zhao Anan needed to be under observation in the hospital, for another month. Zhao Zhao thanked Shangguan Ning for taking the time to to see Zhao Anan and spending so much time with her.
Shangguan Ning was d that she had had a weeks break, because as soon as she got to work, trouble awaited her.
Tang Yun stood next to the reception desk, oblivious to all the staff who stared at her while she waited.
The receptionist quickly made a call to Shangguan Ning, who was the assistant to the President.
Assistant Shangguan, a Ms.Tang is here at the first floor, asking for you. She says that she is the Presidents fiance and he has asked her toe here today.
Shangguan Ning didnt expect that Tang Yun would visit thepany again, and even ask for her.
She paused for a moment and then said, I see. Okay, I wille down and see her now.
Shangguan Ning had no idea what was it that Tang Yun wanted to see her about. Tang Yun had imed that she was the fiance of the President so that everyone at the Enterprise knew who she was. Shangguan Ning handled all these issues with ease now. She remained calm andposed.
She wondered why Jing Yichen had invited Tang Yun to the enterprise, especially since he was travelling. She knew that the rtionship between Tang Yun and Jing Yichen, was purely tonic.
She was also aware that whenever Tang Yun faced a problem, she got in touch with Yichen. Jing Yichen would thene to her rescue.
Jing Yichen provided Shangguan Ning with all details, whenever he met Tang Yun. He never left out anything. This was why Shangguan Ning was not insecure about her rtionship with Jing Yichen any more.
What she couldnt understand was why Jing Yichen considered Tang Yun to be this important.
When Shangguan Ning came to the first floor, she ran into Mi Xiaoxiao who was in the lobby.
Mi Xiaoxiao pulled Shangguan Ning to the side, the minute she saw her. She asked her, Havent seen you for a week! Where have you been?
Shangguan Ning didnt want to lie to her, but she couldnt reveal anything about Zhao Anan either, so she replied casually, I was abroad, for some work. What happened?
Mi Xiaoxiao gave Tang Yun a sideways nce, and said disdainfully, Look at her, so obsessed with the President. She hase here almost every day this week. She must be the Presidents fiance, but how does she not know that he is travelling and is not in the office. Honestly, I have never seen the President even acknowledge her. She must be really thick skinned, toe here every day, receive no acknowledgement, and still be okay with it. What a waste of a pretty face.

Chapter 110: Who Would He Rescue First, If We Were Both in Water?
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning had no idea that Tang Yun had been visiting the enterprise, every single day.
It was the busiest time of the year, at Jingsheng Enterprise. Everyone was busy focusing on work. Tang Yun had attracted a great deal of attention by standing there. Shangguan Ning could imagine how all the employees must be gossiping about this, behind closed doors.
This was beginning to affect the day to day working of the enterprise, especially the women, who wouldnt stop discussing it. Just like Mi Xiaoxiao.
She turned to Mi Xiaoxiao and said with a smile, It is alright. Ill handle it. You get back to work. What are you worried about? Its not as if shes eyeing your husband.
Forget me. Its you Im worried about. When are you getting divorced? Get divorced as soon as possible and just marry the President. Ive had enough of this woman. Shes beginning to irritate me.
Shangguan Ning didnt have time to argue with her. She walked to the front desk.
She didnt talk with Tang Yun, but spoke with Anna, the receptionist, directly. Why is the guest not made to sit in the guestroom? What is the point of making her stand here?
Anna was startled. Shangguan Ning usually spoke with her in a friendly tone, but she sounded quite serious today, even a bit formidable.
She thought for a moment and understood what Shangguan Ning meant. Shangguan Ning had made an indirect jibe at Tang Yun and wanted her to leave.
Anna looked at Ning helplessly. She spoke with Shangguan Ning softly, but was audible enough for Tang Yun to be able to listen in.
Assistant Shangguan, Ms. Tang doesnt want to be seated in the guest room. She only wants to wait here. My repeated requests to her have yielded no result.
Only now did Shangguan Ning turn to Tang Yun and say politely, Ms. Tang, please wait in the guest room if you are waiting for someone. Jingsheng always treats special guests with utmost respect. You shouldnt be standing at the reception, otherwise someone would think you are a random saleswoman.
Tang Yun flushed with embarrassment, but she didnt want to lose her cool in front of the staff. She wouldnt give up so easily.
Assistant Shangguan, I am your Presidents fiance. He asked me toe here today. You have the cheek to talk with me in this way? Youd better watch out. My husband might just give you a pay cut.
Tang Yun was good-looking and had a good personality. Even her anger added to her beauty. Anyone would fall for her charms.
Shangguan Nings heart felt rather ufortable, hearing Tang Yun use the word husband for Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen was her husband. Only she could call him husband. Tang Yuns way of addressing him made her shiver.
She scolded Jing Yichen a thousand times, in her heart C he was responsible for all this mess, why should she be the one to clean it up. How unreasonable!
But Shangguan Ning would not allow Tang Yun to have thest word.
I am so sorry, Ms. Tang. I didnt get any such instructions from the President. So you may please leave now.
She said as she turned to Anna, Get the security, and see Ms. Tang out. We dont want any more sales people just walking in here.
Four tall and strong security personnel arrived immediately. They held Tang Yun by her arms and were about to lead her out. It didnt matter if she was the Presidents fiance.
Tang Yun was livid with anger.
She wouldnt let all her effort go to waste. She refused to be driven off by some random security staff.
After showing up at the Enterprise, every single day, for the past week, she had finally managed to meet Shangguan Ning. She mustnt waste this opportunity.
Just as the security guards were leading her out, she said to Shangguan Ning, I need to talk with you. Get them off me!
Shangguan Ning waved her hands and stopped the security guards.
She hadnt wanted to pay any attention to her, but there were so many bystanders watching them. Apparently, Tang Yuns repeated visits at the Enterprise had seriously distracted the staff from their work.
This was Jing Yichens family business. She didnt want Tang Yun to ruin it by creating a scene, so she nodded in acknowledgement and turned away.
Tang Yun red at the security personnel. She then adjusted her outfit and followed Shangguan Ning into the guest room.
When they entered the guest room, Shangguan Ning poured a ss of water for herself, but didnt offer one to Tang Yun. Instead, she said, Ms. Tang, just say what you need to say. Lets not waste time.
Before Tang Yun came here, she had imagined various scenarios in her head, about her first meeting with Shangguan Ning. What she didnt expect was that Shanguan Ning would be so calm and unaffected by Tang Yuns behaviour. She wasnt the least bit threatened by Tang Yun.
She felt challenged by Shangguan Nings indifference attitude. Ning appeared overconfident, as if she had already won. Tang Yun sat down on the sofa and said provokingly, You have been avoiding me for thest few days. It seems as though you know about me. Im so sorry that I dont know you. Jing Yichen has never mentioned you whenever we meet. I apologise.
How did you know of me, if he didnt mention me? Shangguan Ning asked, calmly.
Tang Yun was speechless. She didnt care that she had messed up. Instead, she continued confidently, Do you know why he treats me so nicely? He has been looking for me for the past ten years. He didnt want to be with any other woman, because of me. Do you think he has no feelings for me? Do you think that what he felt for me was transient?
Her words hit Shangguan Ning with such force that her face paled.
Tang Yun noticed her reaction. She smiled proudly.
If both of us were drowning, whom do you think he would rescue first? Theres no doubt that it would definitely be me.
Tang Yunughed at Shangguan Ning, mockingly. She seemed quite satisfied with the effect that here words were having on Ning.
Shangguan Ning didnt believe Tang Yun, but her bodynguage showed her difort.
She had never asked Jing Yichen why Tang Yun was so special to him.
Every time she asked him about his past, he had said that his past was tooplicated and he would tell her about everything at the right time..
She had been waiting for the right time, patiently.
Lately, both of them had been so caught up with their own responsibilities, that they had been unable to discuss all this.
I got to know him when I was sixteen. He was Prince Charming and all the girls swooned over him. He didnt care about anyone else except for me.
I know him like the back of my hands. He has many small habits and quirks, which only I know well.
Do you know why he always carries a white handkerchief with him?
Shangguan Ning looked up instantly, hearing these words. Her eyes were full of anger and hatred. Her calm demeanour vanished.
She recollected that Jing Yichen had a habit of carrying a handkerchief with him, at all times. She had even asked him about this before. Most people, especially men these days, hardly ever carried a handkerchief.
Did this habit have something to do with Tang Yun?

Actually, Tang Yun wasnt sure if Jing Yichen still had the habit of carrying a white handkerchief with him. It was just a fluke that hit its target. Judging from Shangguan Nings expression, she knew that Jing Yichen hadnt changed in this regard.
Tang Yun smirked.
All those years ago, I was really into painting. I was a fine artist too, if I may say so myself. Invariably, I would get some paint on my face, in the process of working on a canvas. Initially, it happened identally butter I would smear some paint on my face, on purpose. He would pull out a handkerchief and wipe it off my face. Thats how he got into this habit of always carrying a white kerchief with him.The way he wiped off the paint from my face, was so endearing. Ah, those were the days!
Shangguan Ning kept telling herself not to lose her temper C losing her temper would mean admitting that Tang Yun had won. What Tan Yun had said, might not have been true, and she didnt need to believe her.
Her heart though, kept her restless.
Oh, I even taught him to paint, you know. Haha. Initially, he painted terribly. He would paint bears that resembled pigs. I wonder how he did it. I still have many of his weird-looking works of art. Things have changed and he paints really well right now. He likes to paint sketches of me and he does a pretty good job of it, dont you think ?
Each word uttered by Tang Yun pierced into Shangguan Nings heart, like a knife.
She kept tolerating the pain, consoling herself, telling herself that all this was Jing Yichens past and she need not bother about it.
What Tang Yun said next, though, broke herposure.
He doesnt y tennis anymore, right? Guessing by your expression, Im guessing he doesnt. Do you know why he gave it up? Sigh.. of course you dont. You are so pathetic. Of course you dont know anything. You thought that you could have him, if you married him. To be honest, I had overestimated you. I had thought that you would definitely be a piece of work, who would atleast be able to match up to me, but sadly, youre just a poor copy. You are just like those foolish women, who would hang around Yichen all the time. You are all the same. He doesnt care about the likes of you, at all.
As of that moment, Tan Yun was proud of herself.
Shangguan Ning had lost all confidence and patiently waited for Tang Yun to get done.
Tang Yun knew that this discussion had achieved it purpose. She thought shed end it with a final blow to Ning, Yichen yed tennis because of me and gave up tennis because of me too. He stopped ying tennis after I went missing. He is perfect in every single way, except that he cares too much about the past. He doesnt approve of me living in the USA. I wasnt keeping very well, in terms of my health, so he forced me to move back to China, so that he coulde see me and take care of me anytime, anywhere.
If Shangguan Ning wasnt so heartbroken, she would have found a loophole in Tang Yuns exnation.
Tang Yun had said that she and Jing Yichen werent in touch for ten years. If she had been imunicado, how did she know that Jing Yichen had stopped ying tennis, after she went missing?
Wasnt it weird that all her knowledge of Jing Yichen was upto date, even though they hadnt been in touch?
Unfortunately, however, Shangguan Nings minds wasnt on these details, as of now.
She was so upset with Jing Yichen. She wished he were here with her, at this very moment, pacifying her and telling her that all of this wasnt true.
At some point, in this dialogue, the ss of water that Shangguan Ning was holding on to, dropped onto the dull grey carpet but she wasnt aware of it. She didnt even feel the water that had sttered on her heels and trousers.
In case you dont know it, already C Yichen has always belonged to me. He will do anything and everything I ask him to, even if it means giving up his life. If you dont believe me, you can call him right now and ask him about it. See what he has to say.
Having said this, Tang Yun knew, her job here was done.
She thought to herself, No one is allowed to rob me of my man. No one. No one is good enough to marry Jing Yichen, except for me.
Shangguan Ning didnt know when Tang Yun left. She didnt even know how she got home, herself.
The rest of the day had passed in a daze. Shangguan Ning was numb with pain.
She sat by therge ceiling-to-the floor window in Jing Yichens study, for a very, very long time. The gentle breeze yed with her short hair.
For some reason, however, Shangguan Ning didnt cry at all. She didnt shed a tear.
Maybe it was because her heart was stronger than it used to be, after all she had been through a simr episode, thest time she was engaged. She trusted Jing Yichens love for her and this time she genuinely believed that she had made the right decision by marrying Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning failed to get out of bed, the following day.
She struggled to get up and chose to lie in the sheets. She called Lu Qing, telling him that she might need a day off again.
Lu Qing said nothing but told her to take care of herself, before hanging up.
Shangguan Ning felt quite guilty towards her work and towards Lu Qing. He had, after all, been a patient and diligent teacher. He had taught her everything she knew about work. And here, she kept running into problems and taking days off from work. She shouldnt have sat by the window for so long,st night. The wind was chilly and she was sure that she wasing down with something.
She found some medicine from the kit at home, took some pills and fell asleep shortly after.
The servants had no idea that she was unwell. They left her alone, seeing that she was sleepingin the bedroom. In the meanwhile, theyid the table and kept the food ready, so that she could eat whenever she chose to.
When Jing Yichen returned from Australia at midnight, he didnt think much when he didnt meet with Shangguan Ning. He assumed Shangguan Ning was just sleeping.
When he tiptoed into the room and took her into his arms. He instantly realised that something was wrong.
Shangguan Nings body was boiling hot. Her face was flushed. She was running high temperature.
She was still wearing her uniform, from the day before, instead of her pajamas. Had she not been seriously ill, she would definitely have changed her clothes before going to bed.
Jing Yichen panicked. He shook her gently and called her name softly. Ning, wake up, it is me, wake up!
Shangguan Ning squirmed ufortably. Dizzy, she forced her eyes open. She saw him and pushed him away, disdainfully. Go away, leave me alone.
The fever made her weak, but the pain in her heart refused to go away. She hadnt forgotten what Tang Yun had said to her, the day before.
Shecked the stamina to push Jing Yichen away.
Jing Yichen didnt know what was wrong and why was his Ning, behaving in this manner. He was also upset because she was so unwell and no one was aware of it. If he hadnte home early ...the consequences could have been too dire to imagine.
Ignoring her protests, he picked her up, went downstairs,id her down in the backseat of the car and then drove to the hospital as soon as he could.
Landscape Compound was only a few minutes from Family Mus Hospital. Jing Yichen entered the hospital with Shangguan Ning in his arms.
Mu Qing happened to be on night duty. Seeing Jing Yichen carrying an unconscious Shangguan Ning, he knew something was wrong.
It was a good thing, Mu Qing had the presence of mind to inform the Emergency Ward of their arrival. Before Jing Yichen asked him for help, he had already started to do his job.
Chapter 112 - Shangguan Ning Was Missing
Chapter 112: Shangguan Ning Was Missing
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Mu Qing quickly checked Shangguan Nings vitals.
He frowned, once he saw the results on the screen.
Shangguan Ning had a fever that touched almost 105 degree F. If she had been brought here even half an hourter, her body would have gone into shock. Her organs could have ceased to function. She could have even lost her life.
Mu Qing got her medication ready immediately and injected her without wasting any more time. This would bring down her body temperature and allow it to cool down.
He had examined Shangguan Ning many times, so he had begun to understand how her body reacted to various medicines. With the help of the right medication, her body temperature dropped to 101 degree F and stabilized there.
Seeing her current temperature on the thermometer, Jing Yichenwas still unhappy. Why is her temperature not falling any further?
Mu Qing disconnected the device attached to Shangguan Nings arms and said in exasperation, Master Jing, you have no knowledge about medicine. This is not the time for you to advise me. I am the doctor here. I know that you arent thinking reasonably but please do not doubt my ability as a doctor. I am doing my best. It would be helpful if you do not teach me how to do my job.
Mu Qing was an excellent doctor. He may not have been able to match up to Jing Yichen in any other aspect, but when it came to his work, he was the best doctor, the city had.
He exined, She was suffering from such a high fever when you brought her here, that it was practically impossible to bring it down at one go. It would also have been harmful if her body temperature was to drop instantly. Medically, it is rmended that the temperature be brought down at a gradual pace.
Jing Yichen nodded. Shangguan Nings condition had stabilised and she was out of danger. Soon, she was shifted to the normal ward.
Mu Qing shook his head in amazement. Why wasnt she brought here sooner? Why did Jing Yichen have wait for things to get to this stage?
Did he also have to be their psychologist and teach them a lesson or two? He knew that falling ill so often wasnt good for Nings mental and physical well being. To add to the pressure of making sure that Ning felt better, there was Jing Yichen, who was watching Mu Qings every move, like a hawk.
Sitting by her bedside, Jing Yichen was so upset to see Shangguan Ning lying limp in the hospital bed.
He had been in Australia whilst Shangguan Ning had just returned from Germany three days ago. They hadnt met for one week and he missed her very much.
To get back home and find her in this condition was beyond worrisome.
Besides, what hurt him even more was that she didnt seem to reciprocate his feelings. She didnt miss him and even pushed him away from her, when he tried to touch her.
Jing Yichen thought for a while but still couldnte to a conclusion as to what had he done to annoy her to this degree.
Now that the medicine had started to take effect on her, he thought it would be best if he let her rest in silence, devoid of any disturbance. He walked out of the hospital to meet with Lee Duo and his team.
He recollected their conversation when he had spoken with Shangguan Ning, the day prior. She had seemed fine. The problem, whatever it was, has urred today. To get to the root of it, he would need to ask Lee Duo about where all Shangguan Ning had been and who all she had met with today.
Lee Duo was still awake. He showed Jing Yichen, a brief report he had made, of Shangguan Nings schedule.
Shangguan Ning didnt go anywhere apart from work, the entire week. Her dailymute to work, every morning and then back home, at the end of every day. She hadnt even visited Liyu Science & Technology. Her schedule was simple and straightforward, so Lee Duo finished his report in a few minutes.
Everything seemed to have happened ording to routine, apart from one small event. Tang Yun had met with Shangguan Ning, at Jingsheng Enterprise. What they said to each other was something that Lee Duo wasnt aware of.
After hearing all that Lee Duo had to say, Jing Yichen instantly understood what was the source of the problem. Tang Yun had visited the enterprise with just one motive. To provoke Shangguan Ning. She would have intended to instigate Shangguan Ning because she knew how important Shangguan Ning was, to Jing YIchen.
Shangguan Ning had never been fond of Tang Yun. In fact, she had even chosen to have a haircut only because Tang Yun sported a hairstyle simr to hers.
As long as Tang Yun was in the picture, Shangguan Ning would never feelpletely secure.
Jing Yichen wondered how Tang Yun even had the courage toe to the enterprise. Judging from Tang Yuns personality, she would have had a no holds barred monologue with Shagguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning was a simple girl. She wouldnt have been able to handle Tang Yun.
He wasnt sure what Tang Yun had gone through in thest ten years, but since she had returned to China, she had been behaving weirdly possessive about Jing Yichen. She wasnt the person she used to be. She was always scheme and plotting. Her recent behaviour was something that Jing Yichen could note to terms with.
He knew that at heart, she was a gentle soul. He had kept giving her the benefit of the doubt. He did this, not because he loved her but because he felt that he had owed to her.
He loved no one but Shangguan Ning.
Just knowing that Tang Yun could fall to such limits, just to offend Shagguan Ning, made Jing Yichen furious.
He had brought her back to China in order to give her a fresh start in her life. He had not expected her to destroy his stable and happy life. He had worked very hard to get all the good things in his life.
He could tolerate her doing anything else, but he would never tolerate her bullying his wife.
Jing Yichen felt like maybe Tang Yun didnt understand how much he loved his wife. Maybe Tang Yun had forgotten that if Jing Yichen could bring her back to China, he was also capable of sending her away!
Jing Yichen went back to Shangguan Nings room to check on her. To his surprise, Shangguan Ning was missing!
The IV that had been inserted into her arm, was lying on the floor. It had been tossed aside and glucose continued to drip out of it.
He had just stepped out for a mere three minutes and Shangguan Ning had disappeared? This was impossible.
She couldnt have walked out of there herself, because she had a fever and had no stamina to.
He had been in such close proximity to Nings room and he still hadnt sensed that something was amiss.
Jing Yichen rushed to Mu Qing. He told him what the matter was and they both rushed to check the security cameras that focussed on the ward.
There were scores of camera screens at the hospital. Mu Qing was checking the cameras on the left side whilst Jing Yichen was checking the ones on the right side. Suddenly, he hit the desk with his fists.
Mu Qing, who was sitting right there, was startled at his behaviour. He leaned across to have a closer look at the camera.
He could see two familiar silhouettes on the camera screen. One of them was Shangguan Ning, still unconscious, whilst the other was Jing Yichens brother, Jing Yiran.
Shangguan Ning was in Jing Yirans arms. He carried her out of her room, into the lobby and then towards the exit. Before he stepped out of the hospital building, he smiled at the camera, as if he had known that they were watching him.

Chapter 113: The Manic
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
By virtue of the fact that Jing Yichen and Mu Qing had been friends for many years now, Mu Qing knew of Jing Yiran and was aware of his idiosyncrasies. He understood that whatever Jing Yiran did, it couldnt be ordinary. He had to stand out. What Mu Qing didnt expect was that he would get so bold that he would have the gall to take Shangguan Ning away, that too with Jing Yichen around!
What was worse was that Shangguan Ning hadnt been given a clean chit of health, as yet. She still had a fever. Her temperature had just been brought down. There was no way to know if her temperature would rise again. She needed to be kept under observation throughout the day.
Shangguan Ning needed to be found as soon as possible!
Mu Qing was furious with Jing Yiran and cursed him for causing this chaos. That man was crazy. He didnt care that Shangguan Nings life could be in danger. He simply lifted her and carried her out of the ward.
Jing Yiran would have to pay for this, in all likelihood, with his life. Jing Yichen would see to it that he made Jing Yiran suffer for this grave mistake.
Master Jing, we must find Sister as soon as possible. She hasnt recoveredpletely and will need medication soon. I can help you look for her. Ill also carry her dose of medicines with me. I will administer it to her, when we have got hold of Jing Yiran.
Mu Qing delegated his night shift to another doctor and left with Jing Yichen immediately. They had no time to lose. Finding Shangguan Ning was the most important task, at the moment.
He couldnt imagine how many people in A City would have to pay with their lives, if anything happened to her!
Jing Yichen hadnt been this angry, in a very, very long time. Mu Qing had seen him get this annoyed ten years ago, when Tang Yun went missing.
The entire Police Force and Mafia of A City were pulled up, by Jing Yichen. Things had gotten so bad that members of the Mafia and Police force alike, shivered at the mere mention of Jing Yichens name.
Mu Qing hoped that there wouldnt be a bloodbath, like there had been a decade ago. Although Jing Yichen never got along with his brother, things had never been this bad. This time Jing Yichen wouldnt hesitate even for a minute, if he had a chance to kill Jing Yiran. Their father, Jing Zhongxiu loved both his sons equally. He was known to ignore their tiffs but he would definitely intervene if it were to be a matter of life and death.
Without saying a word, Jing Yichen ran out of the hospital.
Lee Duo and his team were waiting outside the hospital. After being briefed of the situation, they started to look for Shangguan Ning and Second Master.
Jing Yichen was very well connected. He had many sources who had eyes all over A city. He received information that Jing Yiran was spotted with Shangguan Ning, in his ck Maserati, not too far from where Jing Yichen currently was. They were a quarter of a mile away.
Jing Yichen elerated his Aston Martin to its maximum possible speed and drove to where Shangguan Ning was reportedly seen. Mu Qing, who was with Jing Yichen, was scared for his life, but he knew that there was so stopping Yichen now.
Shangguan Ning, who kept gaining and losing consciousness, assumed that she was in Jing Yichens arms. She protested unhappily, Go away. Dont touch me. I dont like you!
Her face was pale because she was so unwell. Even when she was asleep, she looked so fragile and lovely. It was a pity that she wasnt approachable whenever Jing Yiran met her.
Jing Yiran listened closely to what Shangguan Ning was trying to say. She spoke feebly and was hardly coherent.
Jing Yiran wondered if she was even aware that the man who held her was not Jing Yichen, but Jing Yiran. He didnt know if what she had just said, was meant for Jing Yichen or himself.
Could it be that the rtionship between Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning, had already strained or was it just his imagination, ying tricks on him?
Jing Yiran smiled. He would find out soon.
He held Nings delicate hand and nted a kiss on it. Shangguan Ning tried to scratch him but could barely manage to do any damage.
Jing Yiran was bored of this already. He wanted Shangguan Ning to put up a fight. He wanted her to resist his advances. This was no fun.
Jing Yiran said to her, Hey Beauty, wake up! I like my woman to be hot and wild. This lukewarm attitude of yours isnt helping. Im already losing interest.
Shangguan Ning forced her eyes open. She was sure that she was hallucinating. How could this be Jing Yiran? What was she doing in his arms?
That couldnt have been possible. This must just be a bad dream otherwise there was no way she would even imagine herself being held by Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran looked at Shangguan Ning and instantly knew what she was thinking. Furious, Jing Yiran spanked her hard.
How dare you think of another man, when youre in my arms?
He sounded so intimidating and serious, as if Shangguan Ning were really his woman.
Shangguan Ning pushed him away, but it didnt make a difference to Jing Yiran. Instead, his grasp over her got stronger. Ignoring her pain, she bit his arm, with whatever leftover strength she could muster.
Then she closed her eyes helplessly, waiting for his reaction.
She opened her eyes to look at him. His eyes were gleaming with excitement, instead of rage.
Shangguan Nings heart skipped a bit. She was more certain than ever, that this man in front of her was deranged.
Oblivious to the pain in his arm, Jing Yiran suddenly bent forward to kiss Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning shielded her face with her palms, in panic. He ended up kissing her hand.
They two were seated in the back seat of his brand-new Maserati. The driver, who had been silent all this while, said to Jing Yiran courteously. Second Master, we are here.
Where are you taking me? Shangguan Ning felt extremely ufortable. Her entire body felt like it was on fire. She had no energy left to fight against Jing Yiran. She knew it was only a matter of time before she lost her consciousness again. Then she would be at the mercy of this dangerous man.
Jing Yiran carried her out of the car and didnt answer her questions. Why are you so light? Doesnt Jing Yichen feed you well?
Let go off me! I can walk by myself! Shangguan Ning struggled hard. She didnt want him touching her.
Ignoring her behaviour, Jing Yiran replied soberly, If you continue to protest, I will strip you naked and make passionate love to you, right here on the street!
Shangguan Ning stopped moving.
He was a crazy person. He was extremely capable of carrying out his threat.
She really hoped that Jing Yichen would somehow get there, as soon as possible. Just the fact that Jing YIran was touching her, was driving her crazy with rage.
She had no idea how she got here. Thest thing she could recollect was taking some medicine and falling asleep C in her own bed, at home.
Also, she had agreed to having Lee Duo and his team, tracing her moves. She wondered where they were.
She felt as if a long time had passed since she had seen Jing Yichen. Where was everyone??
Jing Yiran seemed to have read her mind. He said gleefully, Dont worry. No one can find you. You are mine tonight!
Shangguan Nings heart sank when she saw him acting so strangely. What was up with him today?
The next thing she knew, Jing Yiran was carrying her into a bar. She was confused.
What are we doing in a bar? She asked him.
Getting drunk and getting naughty! C he replied.

I was in a hurry and many things here arent the way Id like them to be, so please bear with me. Anyway, forget how this bar looks. Looks dont matter. What matters right now is that this bar belongs to me.The security system here is top-notch. No one would be able to get in and interrupt us. Even the best software brains in the city, would need a minimum of four hour to be able to crack the security code. Unless your saviour has a military tank at his disposal. Tell me, what do you think we should do, with so much time in hand?
If there were a knife handy, Shangguan Ning would definitely stab it into Jing Yiran, without hesitation.
Yet she knew she had nothing to use as her defence. Her body broke into a cold sweat. She awaited her fate as Jing Yiran carried her to the bar.
It was two oclock in the morning but the bar was still very lively. Men and women, dressed provocatively, were dancing in each others arms, on the dance floor.
Maybe because he and his family members had lived in istion in their personal vis, Jing Yiran preferred noisy and crowded ces. He detested peace and quiet. He found a sofa, close to the bar and threw her on it.
He snapped his fingers and soon a hot girl, wearing a bunny costume, arrived with cocktails.
Next to the cocktails there was a small red pill.
Jing Yiran dropped the pill into the ss. The pill soon dissolved and disappeared in the red cocktail.
This cocktail was a blood red one, called Bloody Mary. Shangguan Ning thought how apt it was, for a pervert like Jing Yiran, to choose a drink that looked like this.
Jing Yiran ced a ss of wine in front of Shangguan Ning. Seeing that she hadnt even had a sip from it, he pulled out a ring from the pocket and put it on the table, in front of them.
Shangguan Ning frowned, wondering what Jing Yiran was up to now.
She picked up the ring and took a closer look at it. Just as she was about to put it away, Jing Yiran snatched it from her. She leaned across for it, but he was too fast for her.
With Shngguan Ning in his arms, Jing Yiran knew that she was now at his mercy . He stretched his arms to wrap them around her soft and slender waist.
He clutched onto the ring tightly and asked her, You want it, dont you?
Shangguan Ning nodded and replied softly, Yes!
If she was not mistaken, that ring belonged to her mother, Huang Liyu. It was her wedding ring. She had been wearing it all through her life. She never removed it.
Somehow, the ne and the ring disappeared, soon after she passed away.
How could Jing Yiran get his hands on the ring as well?
She had been looking for them for ages and had reyed the events of that day innumerable times, in her mind. Yet, she had failed to find any clues that may have led her to them. In a matter of just two days, Jing Yiran had been able to give her both.
Jing Yiran pointed out at the ss of wine and ordered, Put the wine to my lips, so I may drink it. Do that and the ring is yours.
Shangguan Ning didnt hesitate. She picked up the wine ss and put it to his lips.
Jing Yiran picked up his cell-phone and clicked a selfie of them. He smiled wickedly, when he saw the picture and sent it out immediately.
Jing Yichen had no time to look at his cell phone that kept shing, showing an iing message that had just been received. He was driving at such a high speed that it was impossible for him to take his eyes off the road. Mu Qing, who was sitting beside him, thought that the message may be important. He checked the message and was so shocked to see it that he almost dropped the cell phone.
Jing Yichen was pre-uppied but asked,What is it?
Well... youd better look at it yourself, said Mu Qing, passing the cell-phone to him.
Ing Yichen couldnt believe his eyes. The picture was clear and well taken. Shangguan Ning was in Jing Yirans arms. He held her possessively, around her slender waist. They sat intimately, on a sofa. Shangguan Ning was looking well and at ease. She held a ss of wine in her slender hands and had put the ss to Jing Yirans lips.
The neon light of the bar was shining upon them both, making the ambience look dreamy and beautiful.
Jing Yirans grip around the steering wheel tightened. The veins seemed to pop out of his forehead. The tension in the car had reached breaking point.
Controlling his impulse of smashing the cell-phone, Jing Yichen stepped on the elerator and sped the car even more.
Meanwhile, at the bar, Shangguan Ning instantly tried to grab Jing Yirans cell-phone, seeing that he had clicked a picture of them and may misuse itter.
She was sick at the moment, but even if she were perfectly fine, she was no match for Jing Yiran, whose mind was two steps ahead of hers.
After he was done fidgeting with his cell phone, Jing Yiran tossed it aside casually. He picked up the ss of Bloody Mary and took a sip from it.
Okay, I just did as you wanted. Now give me the ring.
Hahaha, my Beauty, dont you know what a ring signifies? A ring signifies a proposal of love! Are you urging me to propose to you? As far as I know, you are already married. Being married, twice over, is illegal! So get a divorce, before asking me for the ring.
Shangguan Ning didnt expect him to back out from his word. She said furiously, You just said that if I put the ss of wine to your lips, you would give me the ring. Did you just lie to me??
Seeing her irritated like a little kitten, Jing Yiran heart craved for her even more. He pinched Shangguan Nings exquisite chin, with force.
He said shamelessly, I asked you to feed me the wine from your mouth to mine. Not from a ss. What you did, doesnt count.
Shangguan Ning was so angry that she pped Yiran, across his face.
The imprint of her palm, was clearly visible on his face.
Jing Yiran froze.
No one had ever pped him, even when he was little. No one had dared to!
Jing Yiran stared at Shangguan Ning in disbelief and if looks could kill, Shangguan Ning wouldnt be alive.
Shangguan Ning stared back at him, refusing to back down.
Her eyes were full of tears. They trickled down her cheeks and they wouldnt stop. She was sad and desperate, all at once.
Her mothersst memory was right there, in front of her, within her reach but she was unable to get it. How would she ever find out the truth about her mothers death, if things continued this way.
She felt helpless!
Shangguan Nings tears had a strange effect of Jing Yiran. He had seen many women cry before, but he had never felt this way about any of them.
He felt pain, as if his heart were breaking.
Why did it hurt him when in fact, he was the one inflicting the pain?
Could all this be a side effect of the cocktail he just drank?
Jing Yiran ignored his feelings as of now. He had more important tasks to handle. He pointed at the other ss of wine and said, Let me make it easier for you. Drink this ss of wine and I will give you the ring. How does that sound?

Shangguan Ning wiped her tears, instantly. She replied, You are not a man of your word. I will not drink this.
He had seen him drop a pill into this cocktail. She was smart enough to not drink it.
I will keep my word this time. The ring will be yours, as long as you drink this.
Jing Yiran was leaningzily, against the sofa. Shangguan Ning moved away from him, trying to keep as much distance between them as possible.
He was certain that Shangguan Ning would definitely drink this cocktail.
By now, he had been able to gauge Shangguan Nings personality.
Jing Yiran was the kind of man who would get obsessed with a woman, if she wasnt interested in him. He would try all his tactics to lure her.
He would threaten her, seduce her, use coercion C nothing was off the table, as long as she eventually gave in to him.
He had met all kinds of women, in his life. He knew exactly what made each of them tick.
Women like Shangguan Ning, were simple-minded and gullible. It didnt take much of his effort, to make theme around.
Go on, drink this, and if you do, I will also tell you a huge secret about your mother! Dont you want to know what it is?
Shangguan Ning understood that Jing Yiran might know more about her mother, than she did. Although she had no idea how he got all this information, or how authentic the information was, she knew she needed to try and worm it out of him, no matter what.
She nced at the cocktail, as if making up her mind. She picked up the ss and drank its contents.
The spicy drink instantly stimted her taste buds. She hadnt eaten a morsel, for more than a day. Her stomach rumbled as she drank this heady concoction.
Soon the alcohol hit her. Or was it the pill? She had no idea. She was ufortable and dizzy.
Shangguan Ning was already unwell and having this drink was like adding fuel to the fire. Her body temperature rose and she felt like the floor had given in, from beneath her feet.
Her vision was getting blurry and she tried hard to keep awake.
She stretched across, towards Jing Yiran and said with great difficulty, Give me the ring, now!
Jing Yiran didnt back away this time. He slipped the old, worn out ring onto her slender finger and took her in his arms once again. Shangguan Ninghad no strength to protest any more. Thest thing she remembered was looking at the ring to reaffirm that it was indeed her mothers ring. After that she fell into a deep sleep.
Jing Yiran thought that she was just pretending. He sneered at her. When he got no reaction out of her, he went closer to her and realised that her breathing was erratic. He assumed that the pill in the cocktail, had caused this reaction.
He felt her forehead. It was extremely hot. She had high fever.
Jing Yiran paused for a moment to reassess his n for the sake of Shangguan Ning, but his need to beat Jing Yichen got the better of him. Jing Yichen had humiliated him on more than one asion and this was the time to take revenge. Vengeance filled his heart.
Before he could decide on what to do next, he could hearmotion from near the bar. Jing Yichen had broken into the bar. People shouted and tried to leave the ce but all exits were sealed shut. The guests in the bar were scared for their lives. Only a few minutes ago, they were all dancing away in high spirits and now they had no idea what they were in for.
The entire bar was in utter chaos. Guests demanded to meet with the manager.
Jing Yiran tried to keep a low profile and intended to hide in the crowd, so that Jing Yichen wouldnt be able to spot him or Shangguan Ning.
He carried Shangguan Ning to an insted room and tossed her onto a long sofa.
The room was more like a panic room. Sound proof and disconnected from the chaos of the bar. It was so quiet that Jing Yichen could hear the sound of his own breathing.
He started to unbutton Shangguan Nings shirt and kissed her lips.
Suddenly he realized that something was wrong.
Shangguan Ning wasnt breathing!
Jing Yiran tried to feel her pulse, nervously.
Her pulse was extremely weak.
His mind went nk. Her heartbeat was slow. Shangguan Ning showed no movement of any sort.
Jing Yiran broke into a cold sweat. He felt suffocated. As if an invisible hand were choking him.
Without a second thought, he carried Shangguan Ning towards the nearest exit, oblivious to the fact that all exits were sealed shut.
He had just stepped out of the room when someone punched him on his face. Blood gushed out of his nose, in an instant. It was Jing Yichen. Jing Yichen snatched Shangguan Ning from Jing Yirans grasp and carried her to safety.
Jing Yichens face turned pale seeing Shangguan Nings condition.
His voice was choked with emotion, Ning, wake up!
Mu Qing instantly checked for Shangguan Nings pulse. He looked worried. He said, Master Jing, she is in shock. Her heartbeat is extremely slow. We should get her to the hospital immediately. It is impossible to revive her, here.
Jing Yichen had no time to even look at Jing Yiran, lying on the floor. He carried Shangguan Ning outside.
Jing Yichens private helicopter was already outside, ready to take off. Five minutester, Shangguan Ning was wheeled into the emergency room.
Mu Qing quickly put on his mask and gloves. He summoned all the doctors in the hospital, for their opinion.
Jing Yichen didnt enter the emergency room this time.
He felt as if his heart was being ripped out of his body. He couldnt bear to look at her. He didnt dare to look at the readings on the various machines, plugged into her body.
He waited outside for what seemed like an eon.
Jing Yiran also reached the hospital within the hour. Standing at the end of the corridor of the emergency room, he waited patiently, for the operation to be over.
If something were to happen to Shangguan Ning, then Jing Yichen would be devastated. Wasnt that what Jing Yiran wanted to see?
Why wasnt he happy then?
Why was his heart so restless?
Jing Yichen, who was sitting on a couch outside the emergency room, spotted Jing Yiran. Jing Yichen wanted to kill this spiteful man, but he was too heartbroken to fight. His heart and mind were with Shangguan Ning.
Jing Yichen made a promise to himself, Jing Yiran, if anything happens to my Ning, you wont live another day!
After what seemed like ages, Jing Yichen heard the door of the emergency room, open.
Jing Yichen stood up, hoping to hear some good news, but when he saw Mu Qings expressions, his heart sank.
Master Jing, I suggest you use your helicopter to get my grandpa to the hospital right away!

Chapter 116: The Magic Doctor Mu Wensheng
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Mu Qing, who was usually calm and collected, sounded anxious at the moment. Shangguan Ning had ceased to breathe. Her heart and stopped beating. Mu Qing had done all that he was capable of, but he could never match up to his grandfather. It was only his grandfather who could bring Shangguan Ning back from the dead. Without wasting precious minutes, he asked Jing Yichen to have Granpa Mu summoned at the earliest.
Jing Yichen asked Mu Qing no questions. He immediately made a call and sent the helicopter to the Family Mu mansion.
Mu Qing called his grandfather and patiently waited for him to answer his phone.
Grandpa, I need your help. Its urgent! It is a matter of someones life and death. Jing Yichen has sent his helicopter to the mansion. Please get to the hospital right away. His voice was shaky.
Grandpa Mu had always believed that life was not meant to be lived in the extremes. He went to bed early and started his day early as well. It was already two oclock in the morning and when his grandson requested him toe to the hospital, he realised that the situation must be a grave one.
If it hadnt been something important, his grandson would not have called him. As a doctor, Mu Qing had been trained to treat every medical emergency in a practical manner. His profession required him to stare at death from very close quarters, every single day.
The fact that even he was so anxious, meant that the situation needed Mu Wengshengs intervention.
Mu Wengsheng believed that saving a life was like putting out a fire. Each minute was of importance. One second of dy was the difference between life and death.
So the moment his grandson put down the phone, he got up and got dressed.
When he came to the yard, the helicopter was there already.
A few minutester, the Grandpa Mu reached the hospital. He had established this institution, single-handedly. Everyone at the hospital knew him and bowed to him, in respect.
He headed directly towards the emergency room, nodding politely at the staff.
He was already over 70 years old but he was still very strong and sturdy. His face looked healthy and he barely had any grey hair. He could easily pass off for a man in his fifties.
Jing Yiran was extremely nervous on seeing Granpa Mu rush into the emergency room.
Mu Wegsheng, namely Grandpa Mu, had retired from his post in the hospital, years ago. He had handed over his prestigious hospital to his grandson, Mu Qing, to carry its legacy forward. He was not involved in the day to day affairs of the hospital anymore.
Mu Qing knew, that if anything could save Shangguan Ning now, it was Mu Wengsheng and his magic touch. All of A city, in fact the entire country, was aware of Mu Wengshengs level of medical expertise.
Mu Wengsheng got to the emergency room, got changed in a jiffy, put on his gloves and got to work.
The moment he saw Shangguan Ning, he knew, she was in trouble.
He instructed his staff to help with rescue work, whilst Mu Qing acted as his assistant. Mu Qing appeared to be very anxious. On the contrary, his grandfather worked in a calm andposed manner.
Usually, Mu Wengsheng would exin each procedure to his grandson, as he did it, but today was different. He needed to single mindedly focus as reviving a person who was clinically dead.
Anyone who knew Mu Wengsheng would say that he was the only doctor who could bring a patient back from the verge of death, as long as the patient was able to breathe without life support.
Shangguan Ning had already stopped breathing. She was on the venttor.
As time went by, Jing Yichen, who was still waiting outside the emergency room, hade to expect the worst.
He was so restless that he wanted to go inside the emergency room, to know Shangguan Nings condition. At the same time he feared the once he went in, there was no way of hiding from the truth.
Until he stood outside, atleast he could cling onto hope. If he walked inside, he would have toe to terms with his worst nightmare.
Time ticked on and the whirring sound of machines in the emergency room, filled the quiet corridor.
A few hourster, the room fell silent.
Jing Yichen looked up.
Mu Wensheng walked out first. He looked at Jing Yichen and said briefly C Alive!
No word in the entire world, meant more than this word. Any love and loathing was useless without the strength of this word.
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief. He felt exhrated. The joy of getting someone back after one has almost lost them, was something he could not express.
He was in the same generation as Jing Yichens grandpa Jing Tianyuan. He was prestigious and had once saved Jing Tianyuans life. They two had a very close friendship with each other so the way he treated Jing Yichen was quite casual too.
Seeing that Jing Yichen wanted to walk inside still, he pped on the back of Jing Yichens head.
You spoilt brat! What are you in such a hurry for? Learn to have some patience.I had thought that you would be an apt role model for my Mu Qing, but it looks like I was making a mistake. Your public persona is just a fa?ade.In reality, you are an impatient bastard.
The Old Mu had a firm and loud voice in scolding and his p was quite strong as well. Jing Yichen simply couldnt fight back.
Jing Yichen couldnt wait to see how Shangguan Ning was faring. Reading his mind, Mu Wengsheng shouted out, Didnt I tell you not to go in there. The girl has survived the ordeal but she is not out of danger yet. No one is allowed to enter the emergency room, at their whim and fancy. Please follow the rules. Looks like Mu Qing has bent a lot of rules for you. He needs to be reprimanded.
Grandpa Mu still had a firm and loud voice.
Mu Wengsheng was as old as Jing Yichens grandfather. Despite his age, he had made it to the hospital at this unearthly hour and saved Shangguan Nings life. Jing Yichen needed to show him some respect, no matter what.
Mu Wengsheng red at Yichen and asked him menacingly, Oh yeah? I cant scold you? Come with me. I am an old man already and you boys still worry me. With all the stress you boys have given me, Im sure my life span wouldve reduced by twenty years.
Saying this, he pulled Jing Yichen by his ears.
Jing Yichen winced in pain. Please Grandpa Mu, let go of me. I wont go in!
He was already in his 30s and heading Jingsheng Enterprises. He could not afford to spoil his image by being seen like this, in public. He was being led out of the hospital by Grandpa Mu, who was pulling him by his ear. What if Lee Duo and his team saw him? How would he face them ?
Mu Wensheng refused to let go of him. Ignoring Jing Yichens pleas, he mumbled, I think I saw Jing Yiran here, a moment ago. Where is the brat, now? He seems to have run away. Qing, Yiran and you look like you all have lost someone very dear. Rx, my boys ! Loosen up. Dont get so worked up. Whose wife is this girl, anyway?
Jing Yichen ignored the scorching pain in his ears and replied instantly, She is mine.. my wife!
What did you just say? You have a wife ? Didnt you prefer men? She couldnt have been imported all the way from Thand, could she? Those Thai people are so skilled,I tell you. I couldve sworn that the patient in the operation theatre was a woman. Gosh, I must be getting old!
Chapter 117 - Waking Up
Chapter 117: Waking Up
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yichen staggered, as Grandpa Mu wouldnt let go of his ears. If some bystander were to witness this, they would doubt that this was the same suave and serious business icon, Jing Yichen. Lee Duo and his team were astonished but pretended to have not seen a thing.
Grandpa Mu, Ning has not undergone a sex change operation. She is a girl by birth!
Oh, a girl! Of course, I knew that. Anyway, I would never expect the Thai doctors to be so skillful. Jing Tianyuan, the old bastard, never even told me that you were married. Ill make sure to sever all ties with him, henceforth.
Mu Wensheng kept chatting away with Jing Yichen. He basically just lectured him while Jing Yichen nodded patiently. It was another hour before Mu Qing walked in.
The moment the old man saw his grandson, he gave him a hard pat on the back.
Little Qing, what have I taught you ? Be calm and stay stable, like a man, understand? What are you in such a hurry for? I am not dead yet and you are already so stressed. Dont you dare get this anxious when youre in the operation theatre. Have I made myself clear? Get a hold on your emotions, boy.
Mu Qing said unhappily, Stop it, Grandpa. I have told you repeatedly that I do not like it when you hit me, even if its in jest. I guess Im not as smart as Master Jing because you have hit me so often. Im sure it has affected my brain. And I just wanted to rify that I wasnt anxious, I was just expressing my emotions.
How dare you talk back to me? said Grandpa Mu, and pped Mu Qings back once again.
What have you learnt in medicine? You didnt even manage to win a Nobel Prize. You still call me in the middle of the night, in case of a medical emergency. How dare you im that you are this dumb, because of my beating? Look at Little Chen. He doesnt have a Nobel Prize to his credit as well, but he has a huge enterprise. And he likes women now! Couldnt you just learn some good things from him?
Little Chen couldnt stop massaging his ears because Grandpa Mu had pulled them so hard. He was speechless because he had finally earned some praise from Grandpa Mu.
He took advantage of the time when Mu Qing was being sounded off by the old man, and left their office quickly.
Soon it was morning.
After a dramatic night, full of twists and turns, Shangguan Ning was lying in a sickbed, in the normal ward. An oxygen mask covered her nose and mouth. There was an IV connected to her hand. She was breathing but looked very weak.
Sitting on the chair near her bedside, Jing Yichen took her other hand, into his own. Seeing that she was right next to him and her vitals were improving, made Jing Yichen feel much better. The clouds of impending doom, over his heart, were finally making way for some sunshine.
Her face had lost its colour. Her lips, which used to be pink and moist, had no sheen. The change in her was heartbreaking, but atleast she was alive.
After several bottles of glucose and intravenous supplements, Shangguan Ning had still not woken up. It had been two days and she stilly lifelessly, on the bed.
Jing Yichen stayed by her side, fearing that something would go wrong once again, if he were to leave.
Every time Mu Qing came to check on Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen would ask him why hadnt she woken up yet.
He could understand how Jing Yichen felt. For once, Mu Qing didntugh at his predicament. Instead, he empathised with him and pacified him, saying that Shangguan Ning hade so close to losing her life. She was lucky to have survived through this ordeal but it could be another couple of days before she would wake up.
Three dayster, Shangguan Ning opened her eyes.
Her head ached and her body was numb andcked strength.
After being in a daze for a while, she suddenly remembered the chain of events that put her in this condition.
She remembered that Jing Yiran had ced her mothers ring onto her finger before she had passed out.
Where was the ring? Where was the ring??
She instantly raised her hand to see if the ring was still there. She wouldnt be surprised if Jing Yiran had taken off the ring after she fell unconscious
The moment Shangguan Ning moved, Jing Yichen, who was resting by her bedside, woke up too.
Ning! Jing Yichen was so happy that he shed tears of joy, seeing Shangguan Ning open her eyes. You are awake, Ning!
Shangguan Ning stared at him in astonishment. Jing Yichen now had a beard. He hadnt shaved for days. His clothes were creased, he seemed to have not changed them for days. His eyes looked tired. He obviously hadnt slept. His voice sounded hoarse and weak.
Shangguan Nings heart ached. She asked him. How long have I been in aa?
She was startled by her own voice, the moment she spoke.
Her voice was no louder than a whisper. She sounded terrible. Her throat hurt a lot.
Jing Yichen didnt seem to mind. He didnt think her voice was terrible. He thought that it was the sweetest sound in the whole world.
He held on tightly to Shangguan Nings hands and said, You have been in aa for four days.
You have been waiting at my bedside, for four days?
Yes, I have been guarding you. I wanted to see you, the moment you opened your eyes. I didnt want to turn around and then realise that youve gone missing once again.
Tears gushed out of Shangguan Nings eyes. She lifted her hand and gently caressed his handsome face. She said pleasantly, Silly you are. You need to get a good rest, otherwise, who will take care of me, if you be tired and sick.
Jing Yichen wrapped her hand in his and said, Baby, you really gave me a fright. I thought that I was going to lose you. Thank you foring back and for not disappearing from my life!
Shangguan Ning didnt know that just four days ago, she had been pronounced clinically dead. She didnt know that she had been kidnapped by Jing Yiran, from the hospital, right under Jing Yichens watchful eyes. She had no idea how much had Jing Yichen suffered, when she was in aa.
What she did know, was that Jing Yichen loved her from the bottom of his heart and cared for her like nobody else. She could sense how important her well being was, to him.
At this moment, she felt that her life was worth its while and that she would have no regrets, if she were to die at this very moment.
She didnt care about anything that Tang Yun had said to her. She couldnt imagine that anyone would love her and care for her, more than Jing Yichen did. He could love no one else, like he loved her and she finally believed that
After some time, Shangguan Ning thought of the ring again. She started to look for it,feeling for it on her bed, but her mothers ring was nowhere to be found. The only ring she was currently wearing was her own wedding ring.
She tried to get up,but she had no strength left.
What is it, Ning? What are you looking for? Jing Yichen asked, seeing her stressed.
No, Im alright.Did you happen to see a ring on my finger? Its an old one. A gold band with a small diamond.
Jing Yichen pulled out a ring from the pocket and gave it to her. You mean this one?
Chapter 118 - Lower Your Voice
Chapter 118: Lower Your Voice
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning took it instantly and observed it carefully. She let out a sigh of relief after she was sure that it was her mothers diamond ring.
Jing Yichen had noticed this diamond ring when the nurse was connecting the IV to Nings forearm, a couple of days ago.
He wasnt sure where this diamond ring was from or what was its significance, so he simply put it away for her, carefully. He knew that this couldnt have been a diamond ring that Jing Yiran gave to her, because Jing Yirans personality was such that he preferred all things that were over the top. He wouldnt have given her something so old. He would have preferred gifting her brand new, shiny solitaire instead.
Shangguan Ning exined a momentter, This is my mothers wedding ring. She never took it off her finger, till she was alive. After she passed away, this ring and her ne disappeared. I feel lucky to get two of her most treasured belongings. Something tells me that the truth of her death, wont elude me for too long now.
Jing Yichen felt a bit guilty hearing her say this.
He had promised to find out the truth about her mothers death, but after a lot of diligent research, he hadnt unearthed any effective clue. It would not have been difficult for a man of his stature to find out the truth about something but all rted clues and evidences had been meticulously erased or had mysteriously gone missing. Without these, it was close to impossible, to find out something conclusive.
He was silent for a moment and then asked suddenly, Ning, Jing Yiran gave you this ring?
Shangguan Ning nodded and said, Yes, he gave it to me. But I think it is quite strange C how could he have my mothers belongings? He only met me a few months ago. I have been stuck in this rut for so many years, yet I havent been able to find a single clue. He has hardly invested any time in finding out the truth but he has aplished so much more.
Jing Yichen hated Jing Yiran from his very core, because Jing Yirans follies had almost cost Shangguan Ning her life. Jing Yichen wanted to tear him apart. He wished he could have one of his own men beat up Jing Yiran to pulp. That way Jing Yiran would be home found for months. Maybe then he would learn a lesson that he could never forget. That was why his hatred was partially gone at the moment and that was why he was able to perform this analysis with rationality and calmness.
Jing Yichen grew up with Jing Yiran. Although their rtionship was strained, both the brothers knew each other really well.
Jing Yiran was not as incapable or careless as he pretended to be. Being a Casanova and a womaniser was just a fa?ade. He was an extremely powerful man. If Doctor Mu Qing hadnt been with Jing Yichen the other day, they would have been unable to break into the bar. It was such a secure hideout. Jing Yichen was aware of his brothers capabilities.
But Jing Yichen was absolutely confident that Jing Yiran was still far less capable than he was.
Since he wasnt as capable as him yet he was still able to find out what he couldnt find, it basically meant that he had controlled one or several insiders rted to that affair years back.
It seemed that he would need more people to supervise Jing Yiran to a deeper degree.
Shangguan Ning was out ofa but her condition was still very fragile. Mu Qing hade in to check on her and he confirmed that she needed more rest, in order to be able to recuperate fully.
After Mu Qings departure, Jing Yichen fed Shangguan Ning some porridge and let her get some more sleep.
After she fell asleep, he made a call to Zheng Jing, the Commissioner of the Police for the criminal division.
Zheng Jing answered the call immediately and said, Master Jing, How may I help you?
Jing Yichen spoke in a low voice. Someone is asleep here. I am going to speak very softly, so that she doesnt get disturbed. Listen carefully.
Jing Yichen would rather make this call from the same room that Shangguan Ning was sleeping in and risk disturbing her, than make this call from outside and leave her alone again. It was too dangerous and Jing Yichen did not want to repeat his mistake.
Zheng Jing was speechless. This didnt sound right. Who was it whom Jing Yichen was so concerned about?
This concern was very much like the concern one has for someone they love deeply.
Zheng Jing had never seen this side to Master Jing.
He said, in jest, Master Jing, this doesnt sound like you at all. Is your wife asleep in the same room ?
Zheng Jingughed at his own joke. Everyone knew that Jing Yichen was a workaholic and did not waste his time on women. Ten years ago, he was involved with one woman, namely Tang Yun. After she disappeared, Jing Yichen had caused mayhem in the entire city. Anyhow, that was such a long time ago.
Yes, my wife is asleep. She is a light sleeper, so I cant speak any louder at the moment.
Zheng Jing couldnt believe his ears. Was it really Jing Yichen who was so concerned about somebody elses well being that he took the effort to speak softly over the phone?
From now on, tap every phone call Jing Yiran makes and receives, including calls made by his close aides. Send me a detailed report on this, every alternate day.
Zheng Jing didnt hear a word of what Jing Yichen had just said. He thought this was a joke. Jing Yichen and married? That didnt add up. He couldnt help but ask, Master Jing, are you married?!
Jing Yichen was surprised at the Commissioners cheek to ask him this question. He still chose to reply politely, Yes.
Zheng Jing suddenly realized his folly. He was asking prying questions about Jing Yichens personal life. It was not his ce to do so. He immediately apologised for his misconduct and got back to the task at hand. Master Jing, whose calls do you want me to tap?
Jing Yiran and his aides.
Alright. Just reconfirming. You want me to tap all calls made and received by Second Master Jing, am I right?
Zheng Jing almost believed that he had got it wrong again. Although it wasmon knowledge that Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran never got along too well with each other, yet tapping phone calls was taking it to a whole new level. Besides, Jing Yiran was someone who shouldnt be messed with. He was capable of making things worse, if offended.
Besides, Zheng Jing was aware that he himself was not the final authority on everything, in the police department. He also had people that he was answerable to, for his actions.
If he didnt back his demands with the requisite approvals, he would not be given enough resources in terms of capital or manpower.
Tapping Second Master Jings phone was no joke. This task involved a lot of risk. Jing Yiran was the second son of Jing Zhongxiu. It didnt matter that the order to do this hade from none other than Jing Zhongxius older son, Jing Yichen. It was still very dangerous!
Zheng Jing was aware that it didnt matter how many des he and his team had won in the past. Now it was Jing Yiran who was on target. He was the heartthrob of the nation. Going after him would mean sending out an open invitation for public ridicule, especially from the women.
Chapter 119 - She Saved My Life Before
Chapter 119: She Saved My Life Before
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Zheng Jing eventually came around, because Jing Yichen not only agreed to offer manpower but also economic support and the requisite approvals from the higher ups.
Zheng Jing couldnte up with any reason to not get started right away.
Resultantly, from noon on the very same day, phones of Jing Yiran and all his aides were tapped.
Shangguan Ning stayed in the hospital for another two days before she was able to go back home.
She felt much better. Apart from random headaches, that bothered her every now and then, she had nothing to worry about.
Thest two days had been an eye opener for Ning. She learnt how her body went into shock when she was forced to drink the cocktail that had been drugged. She got to know that it was Grandpa Mu who rescued her from the clutches of death.
If it hadnt been for Jing Yichen, who saved her at the right time, she may have lost her life.
Jing Yichen still felt quite guilty about the entire episode. He felt that if it wasnt for his carelessness, all of this wouldnt have happened. If he had been a bit more cautious, Jing Yiran wouldnt have had this opportunity to take advantage of Shangguan Ning.
Jing Yichen had no knowledge that Shangguan Ning had been unwell for a day and a half, before he got home from his business trip.
Jing Yichen knew that Tang Yun had met with Shangguan Ning but he didnt know what had Tang Yun said to Ning, that upset her to this extent. He was lying in bed and holding Shangguan Ning in his arms, when he exined to her lovingly, Ning, no matter what Tang Yun tells you in the future, please dont believe her. If you have any questions,e and ask me. You and she are different people by nature. You are na?ve and can be easily manipted. There have been times that, even I have fallen for her sob stories.
Shangguan Ning nodded, still leaning against his chest. I understand.
Realising that she sounded unconvinced, Jing Yichen asked her, Ning. Is there anything you want to say to me?
When he returned from Australia, all those nights ago, she had been very upset with him. He understood now, that her disdainful attitude wouldve been on ount of what Tang Yun wouldve said to her.
Shangguan Ning smiled and said, I did, but now I dont.
Shangguan Ning had thought about what Tang Yun had said to her. She concluded that she would rather believe Jing Yichen over any of the nonsense that Tang Yun had spoken. Jing Yichen had assured Ning repeatedly, that only she was his first love.
When she met him for the first time, she had known how cold and indifferent he could be.
If he, with the kind of person that he was, had really done all that Tang Yun had said, then he must have really felt something for her.
Anyway, Tang Yun was Jing Yichens past. His past did not matter any more. As long as Ning was the woman whom Jing Yichen loved now, the rest was not important.
In his arms, she felt happy and cared for. She felt like she was a giggly teenager who had fallen in love for the first time.
Shangguan Ning chose to not discuss this topic any further and trust him.
He moved his arms around, so that she could be in a morefortable position. He exined calmly, Ning, I give Tang Yun all this importance, not because I love her. I protect her and grant all her requests because I owe it to her. She... she has saved my life before. She put her life in danger and didnt even think twice about it.
Shangguan Ning sat up. She had never expected Jing Yichen to finally open up and speak about what transpired between him and Tang Yun, all those years ago.
She saw Jing Yichen reminiscing about the past, as he spoke. Apparently, the memory of that time mustve been an unpleasant one because she saw him stress. Even thinking back to those days, still troubled him after all these years. Maybe thats why he chose to never speak of it.
She held him tightly, wanting tofort him. To tell him that it was alright, he had her now.
Jing Yichen was a man who feared nothing. To see him feel so helpless, was disheartening.
So Tang Yun saved Jing Yichens life. She wondered what had followed that.
Jing Yichen continued, I thought that she was no more. There was no way that she could have made it out alive. The only reason I never gave up looking for her was because her body had still not been found. That was the only thing that gave me hope of her being alive. I looked for her everywhere. In all of A city and then in all the countries I could, until I finally found her.
Shangguan Ning stayed silent for a moment and then asked, If she was still alive, why didnt shee looking for you?
If Tang Yun had cared so much about Jing Yichen, as she had imed, then howe she didnt look for Jing Yichen. She imed to be his fiance. If she were alive, why did she wait for ten years for Jing Yichen to find her?
She said she lost her memory. Jing Yichen said, as if he had heard all of Shangguan Nings unspoken questions. She ims that she regained most of her memory over thest two years.
Even though Shangguan Ning believed Tang Yuns story, Jing Yichen still didnt buy it. He had met people over thest few years, who had lost their memory and then regained it. The things they had experienced were very different from what Tang Yun imed to have felt.
Whether or not, Tang Yun lost her memory for real, was something Jing Yichen could easily find out from his sources. He just didnt think it was important enough for him to waste his time on all this now. Nor was it important to find out why did she eventually agree toe back to China or why didnt she get in touch with Yichen, anytime over thest two years, after she regained her memory.
What was important was that she was still alive.
That was enough.
Shangguan Ning thought that what Tang Yun had gone through was a life changing experience. She couldnt help feeling sorry for her. She seems to have had a hard time too. I will try to be nicer to her, henceforth. I wont call her a random sales person.
Jing Yichen smiled. What sales person?
She was standing at the reception desk, at thepany and told everyone that she was your fiance. I told her that she looked more like a salesperson.
She will never visit thepany again, I promise.
The rumour that Tang Yun was his fiance, had spread across thepany like wildfire. Lu Qing had already reported all of this to him, that day itself. Even Jing Zhongxiu, who had never interfered in his affairs since he took over thepany, called him and told him to be careful of the family reputation. He also warned him to never betray Shangguan Ning.
For the first time, Jing Yichen didnt cut his father off abruptly.Instead, he took the effort to offer his father an exnation.
Nothing is going on between Tang Yun and me. Shangguan Ning is my wife. She is the one I love. Now and forever. Nothing will change that.
Yichen had told Lu Qing that if anyone dared to ask him about Yichen and Tang Yun, then he should tell them that Jing Yichen was happily married and there was no question of him having a fiance.
The following day, there was a furore at the office. The employees couldnt stop discussing how they werepletely unaware of this news. The women staff were particrly miffed. Some were even heartbroken.
Shangguan Ning was forced to take a couple of weeks off, on Jing Yichens insistence. He did not want her to exert herself by resuming work immediately.
After two weeks when Shangguan Ning started going to office, she wondered why the morale of the women in thepany was so low. She asked Mi Xiaoxiao what the matter was, What is it going on? Why is everyone so depressed?
Mi Xiaoxiao looked at her and sighed.
Mi Xiaoxiao patted Shangguan Nings shoulders and asked, Shangguan Ning, you are not... divorced, are you?
Shangguan Ning was even more confused. No. Why?
Oh, oh thats good then. Well... please dont leave your husband. Work on your marriage and live your life well. Our president..our president is already married!

April 28th was Huang Lihans birthday. Shangguan Ning went to the mall to choose a gift for him.
Mi Xiaoxiao proposed to keep herpany. They spent the entire afternoon looking for something appropriate but still found nothing.
Firstly, Shangguan Ning didnt want to buy her uncle something, just for the sake of it. She wanted to get him something that he would really like. Secondly, she really couldnt think of anything that Huang Lihan didnt already have.
When she lived abroad, some years ago,she would buy him local souvenirs or items of his choice and and post them to him. This year, she was in China and still had no idea what to buy him.
Mi Xiaoxiao wasntining, even though she was wearing a pair of high heeled shoes. She loved shopping and browsing through various shops at the mall. Hey, Shangguan, there is a porcin shop over there, lets go and have a look. Maybe we find something suitable.
Shangguan Ning followed her into the shop.
Her uncle liked tea so maybe she could get him a tea set.
The moment they entered the store, they saw two familiar faces.The man was tall and handsome. The girl next to him was elegant and beautiful.
It was Jing Yichen and Tang Yun.
Mi Xiaoxiao was startled at the sight of both of them. Shangguan Ning was indifferent. She didnt blink an eyelid. She behaved as if she didnt know them at all. She went to the ss shelf and started to check out the crystal-clear porcin collection, at the store.
Mi Xiaoxiao nudged Shangguan Ning on her elbow. Shangguan, pinch me! I suspect that I have a clear visual of them now.
Shangguan Ning did as asked. She pinched Mi Xiaoxiao hard. Mi Xiaoxiao screamed in pain.
Jing Yichen, whose back was facing them, turned around and caught sight of his wife and Mi Xiaoxiao. His wife didnt look at him. She appeared to be browsing through some tea sets while Mi Xiaoxiao massaged her arm.
Tang Yun was whispering to Jing Yichen, with her head low. She soon spotted Shangguan Ning and herpanion.
She thought that Shangguan Ning was following them and intended to pick on her. Tang Yun then purposely went up to Jing Yichen and held his arm. She said in a charming tone, Yichen, it is my fault. I will be more careful next time. For now, may I have this blue and white porcin figure. Its only costs a few thousand yuans. Please pay for it and lets get going. You cant say no to me, can you ?
Jing Yichen hated it when someone apart from Shangguan Ning, touched him. It could be a man or a woman, that didnt matter. He flung his arm off as a conditional reflex, the moment Tang Yun held his arm.
Tang Yun knew of this quirk of his. She knew he didnt like being touched, but she wanted to annoy Shangguan Ning. She wanted Shangguan Ning to know that Jing Yichen was her man, so she held on to Jing Yichen, as if marking her territory.
She felt quite embarrassed when Jing Yichen moved his arm away. What was worse, Shangguan Ning was a witness to all this. In order to save face, Tang Yun stuck by Jing Yichens side and refused to make eye contact with Ning.
Sensing Jing Yichens difort , Shangguan Ning saw that Jing Yichen was not in an easy position either. He was furious and was trying hard to control his temper. His expressions were easy to read.
She had not nned to speak with them, nor had she nned to fight with Tang Yun. She didnt want to have any conflict with Tang Yun anymore, after she learnt that Tang Yun had saved Jing Yichens life. That made her Shangguan Nings saviour as well.
Shangguan Ning had been patient all this while but seeing Tang Yun behave so provocatively, Shangguan Ning couldnt just be an innocent bystander and watch the show. She needed to do something about it. She was, after all, Jing Yichens wife.
Mi Xiaoxiao greeted them as soon as Jing Yichen turned to them. Mr. President, its so nice to see you!
The moment Mi Xiaoxiao finished saying this, Shangguan Ning came up to Jing Yichen, stood on the tip of her toes and kissed him on his lips.
When she saw this, Mi Xiaoxiao couldnt believe her eyes. This scene was straight out of the movies. She didnt even realise when she dropped her cell phone. She only snapped out of her reverie when the phone hit the ground.
Jing Yichen didnt expect that Shangguan Ning would kiss him in front of so many people. She was usually very shy and didnt take the initiative out of her own ord. It was always Jing Yichen who took the effort and he always felt like he was forcing her .
Seeing Jing Yichen reciprocating to Shangguan Nings kiss, Tang Yun was annoyed and crazily jealous. Wasnt this the same Jing Yichen who didnt like it when someone touched him. How could he allow this bitch to kiss him? What happened to all his intimacy issues now? Where did they disappear?
After Shangguan Ning finished kissing him, she stretched out her hands to adjust his suit and cor, in a flirtatious manner. She then said, Honey, dont work too hard. Come home early tonight. I happen to like a tea set. Will you please pay for it? Also, please get it home for me, will you? I should be going now. Theres so much I need to get done.
Jing Yichen smiled. He pulled out a golden card from his wallet and handed it to Shangguan Ning. Of course Ill pay for it and get the set home for you. Here. Keep my card. Now go shop bute home soon.
Without even ncing at the card, Shangguan Ning took it and kept it in her purse. Then she said to the salesman, who waspletely confused, Sir, please pack up this tea set and give it to this gentleman here. Thank you.
Having said this, she turned around and pulled an already astonished Mi Xiaoxiao away from the store. Lets go, Xiaoxiao, didnt you just say that you wanted to buy a dress? Lets go have a look at it. Ille with you.
Mi Xiaoxiao who was still bewildered, followed her out quietly. After they had left the store, Mi Xiaoxiao realized that she had left her cell-phone in the store. She ran back to the store to pick it up.
When they walked away a little further and Mi Xiaoxiao was certain that Jing Yichen couldnt hear them, she hugged Shangguan Ning tightly, amidst giggles and peals ofughter, as she rambled on excitedly, Shangguan, you... you are married... to... him ?
Shangguan Ning smiled her widest smile and said jovially, Let go of me, you silly girl. I will die of suffocation, if you dont.
Mi Xiaoxiao let go of her instantly and then nted a huge kiss on Shangguan Nings face. She then said,ughing crazily, Hahahaha, I just kissed the woman who kissed the President. Hold on.. I kissed the woman who the President kissed!
Shangguan Ning wiped off the saliva on her face. She couldnt help smiling at Mi Xiaoxiao, who was simply overexcited.
She had thought that Mi Xiaoxiao would get annoyed with her for not telling her about her being married to Jing Yichen. Instead, Mi Xiaoxiao was so happy and excited that she couldnt get over this huge piece of news. She was so happy for Shangguan Ning.
Xiaoxiao, I didnt try to conceal the truth on purpose. I just...
Its alright, really. I dont me you. You werent in a position to share the truth with everyone. The women at the office would be so jealous of you. You would soon be done away with. She made a yful gesture of her throat being cut.
Shangguan Ningughed.
Mi Xiaoxiao patted Shangguan Nings shoulders and said with a smile, So, Shangguan, you are the one who has charmed the President. So what I say to you every day is just a waste of time, eh! I even tried to persuade you to get divorced. Thank God, you didnt listen to me. Oh God, I feel so awful for saying that.
Well... Xiaoxiao, youd better not tell others about it. I dont want our colleagues at thepany, to know about it yet. Shangguan Ning had to remind her friend. She knew Mi Xiaoxiao was excited but she didnt want her to have a slip of tongue in all this excitement.
Mi Xiaoxiao pinched her neck and made a promise, with exaggerated expressions. Dont worry. I am a woman of my word. Your secret is safe with me. No one will be able to worm anything out of me.
Shangguan Ning nodded and they continued with their shopping expedition, happily.
In the meanwhile, at the porcin store, Jing Yichen was already in the midst of a heated discussion with Tang Yun. He said seriously, If you run out of money next time, tell the guards around you. I have a running ount with them. Ill pick up the tab. Please dont expect me to go shopping with you. I dont even keep my wifepany, when she goes shopping.

Tang Yuns eyes were full of tears. She shouted out aloud, You are mine! You shouldnt have married her. Dont you dare forget, your life belongs to me. You are alive, thanks to me.
Jing Yichen stiffened and his face turned pale. He just stood there, still, and didnt say a word for a long time.
Rushes of the past ran across his eyes. He got to the moment where Tang Yun saved his life. For that, he would always be grateful to her. He opened his eyes and decided to take make some more effort to be nice to Tang Yun.
He turned around and said to Tang Yun calmly, I am married. That is a fact and it cant be changed. You will get married too, sometime in the future. Dont you have a boyfriend in the USA? I can get him here too, or you could return to the USA, if you dont like your life here.
Hearing these words, Tang Yun went up to Jing Yichen and hugged him.
She cried, I dont like William! I like you! I dont want to go anywhere. I want to marry you! I know that you dont like your wife either. Why dont you divorce her? Then we can be together!
Jing Yichen tried hard to mask his difort. He did not like being touched by anyone. He had already mentioned it to Tang Yun, but clearly she was not willing to listen. He moved Tang Yun off him, slowly and firmly. I will never divorce her.
Realising that Jing Yichen had moved away her arm from his, Tang Yun was even more annoyed.
How was it that he was fine when Shangguan Ning kissed him, whilst she couldnt even touch him? She wanted to hug him and kiss him too!
When she embraced him once more, Jing Yichen could no longer hide his difort. He gave her a strong push and she fell onto the ground whilst he started to vomit with one hand holding against the wall.
The saleswoman at the store didnt dare to interfere, while they were quarrelling. Instead, she quietly packed up the purple tea-pot set, in silence. It was worth 200,000 yuan, so she was being extra cautious. She realised that Jing Yichen wasnt feeling alright. She tried to help him but one look from him was enough to make her stop in her tracks.
Having said these words, he staggered out of the shop with hands covering his chest, his facepletely devoid of colour.
Tang Yun was disappointed and annoyed. Jing Yichen hadnt changed. He still hated it when someone touched him, but why was he so epting of Shangguan Nings touch and even reciprocated to her kiss?
She stood up, dusted herself and was about to follow Jing Yichen, who had already left the store.
The saleswoman was able to stop her just in time. She said politely, Miss, you havent paid for the vase you just broke. You may please leave after you have made the payment.
Tang Yun pped the saleswoman, when she tried to stop her from leaving. Dont you dare touch me. I am rich enough to buy you and your entire store.
The saleswoman was aghast. She was shocked at this Tang Yuns disgraceful behaviour. She thought to herself that the age old adage was true after all C Money could buy you a lot, but it couldnt buy you ss. She watched in shock, while Tang Yun ran out, after Jing Yichen.
The saleswoman gathered her wits and was about to call the police, to lodge aint.
Just then Jing Yichens loyal chauffeur Tiger, walked in. Please give me the tea set that has been chosen by my Lady, I will make a payment for it. I will also pay for the vase that the impolite woman just broke. I apologise for all the inconvenience caused to you.
Jing Yichen took some time to feel alright again. Leaning against his car, he took a few deep breaths, while his chest heaved.
Ever since he had been married to Shangguan Ning, his intimacy issues had almost ceased to bother him. He was also a cleanliness freak, so if someone grazed against him on an error, he felt the need to wash up. He had learnt to live with his quirks but Shangguan Nings presence in his life had somehow absolved him of all this.
He realised that things had gotten better when he felt no difort or repulsion when Shangguan Ning touched him.
When Tang Yun threw herself at him, he had felt extremely uneasy. Sometimes, he felt that his issues had more to do with what he felt for the person in question, rather than a generic disorder.
It could be on ount of something that may have happened in his childhood or it could be because of the incident when Tang Yun saved his life.
He had tried not to think about all this but it was Tang Yun who brought it up, this afternoon.
He regained some of his strength in a while and was just about to leave, when Tang Yun came up to him.
Tang Yun looked extremely upset. In a sad voice, she asked Jing Yichen, Do you hate me that much? Do I make you sick?
Jing Yichen felt sympathetic towards Tang Yun. He said softly, You know that it has nothing to do with you. I have never liked being touched by others, even if its on an error.
Tang Yuns voice suddenly turned livid. Her beautiful face was now distorted with anger. Then how can you allow that woman to touch you?! You are a liar! You had said that you would never get married but look at you now! You are married and even have a wife! You are living a happy life but what about me?! I have done so much for you but I cant even hug you!
Jing Yichen didnt like Tang Yuns attitude. She was spoiled and she threw tantrums often enough, but this kind of behaviour was unbing of ady.
He patiently exined to Tang Yun, Shangguan Ning is different. Since I met her, a lot has changed. I had said earlier, that I wouldnt get married because I hadnt met the right person. Also, I have told you repeatedly that it would do you good to stay away from me. There can never be anything between us and you know that. It is you who keeps lying to yourself.
Hahahahaha, well said! So that bitch is different, right? Okay, then I will kill her right now, and you can kill me next! If I cant have you, no one else can. Tang Yunughed like a lunatic. She turned around and ran towards the mall.
Jing Yichens dislike for Tang Yun increased by the minute. He started to feel that getting Tang Yun back to China, was a mistake.
Was it thest decade that turned Tang Yun into such a bitter person or was he so blind, ten years ago, that he didnt notice these aspects of her personality?
He had thought that finding Tang Yun would bring an end to his restlessness, but this had turned out to be a nightmare, from which he was unable to wake up.
Seeing Tang Yun dash off to the mall, in search of Shangguan Ning, like a crazy psychopath, Jing Yichen pulled out his cell-phone and called Lee Yong, who was in charge of Tang Yuns security.
Ms. Tang is in an unstable state, right now. Take her back home right away and ensure that she does not hurt the Lady. Keep a close watch on her, wherever she goes. Dont let her make any mistakes. Call me in case of anything.
Lee Yong who had already sighted Tang Yun, replied in the positive, to all of Jing Yichensmands. He waved his hands to the rest of his team, gesturing that Tang Yun should be brought back immediately.
Two other men emerged from the crowd and caught hold of Tang Yun. They held her by her arms and started to walk towards the nearest exit. Tang Yun shouted and protested, but they did not pay heed to her.
Tang Yun had loved having her own entourage. She felt important when she walked into any ce, with her team of bodyguards. At this moment though, she wouldnt think twice before doing away with all of them.

Chapter 122: The Intimidating Shangguan Ning (Part One)

Shangguan Ning and Mi Xiaoxiao had visited many stores but still failed to zero in on an outfit they both liked.
They two were about to enter another store, when Ning heard a familiar voice.
Lili, this dress looks so good on you. It entuates your petite waist. Oh, you look so pretty!
Hahaha, you really think so? Xue, you have the best taste! Excuse me, would you please pack this dress for me? I want this dress in all sizes, all of them, so that no one else can wear an outfit that is simr to mine.
On learning that this client wanted to buy those many dresses, the saleswoman was extremely happy and said with a smile, We have only two dresses in stock, currently. You need not worry about someone else wearing the same dress as yours because we are the only store in A city, that sells them. In the rare chance that someone even sports a simr outfit, theyck your personality. Their charisma is no match to yours.
Hearing the conversation inside, Shangguan Ning pulled Mi Xiaoxiao, who was about to go inside. Xiaoxiao, lets try another store!
Mi Xiaoxiao looked confused. Why? This store is a bit expensive, but the quality is quite good. Maybe they have a dress I like.
Then we can check some other stores ande back to this one,ter. Shangguan Ning said, without giving any more details. She didnt want to run into these two people, in case they found some pretext for another conflict. She was in a good mood and didnt want her mood to be ruined.
It was toote to leave now because the woman inside had already seen Shangguan Ning.
Well, well, look it is, after all? Dressed so provocatively, are you out to lure men again?
Jii Lili sneered at her, when she spotted her from where she stood.
Shangguan Ning and Mi Xiaoxiao stopped in their tracks.
Mi Xiaoxiao understood instantly why Shangguan Ning had suggested going to another store. Well, Shangguan Ning could be mild, but not Mi Xiaoxiao. She knew how to give it back.
Hearing Jii Lili mouthing such insults, Mi Xiaoxiao said to Shangguan Ning, in a perfectly audible tone, No wonder this woman is so bitter! It is because she is too ugly for anyone to find her interesting. in looking women are often jealous of other women who are pretty. I wonder why this store sells their outfits to such ugly people.
The saleswoman was confused. Mi Xiaoxiao had a pitiful expression on her face. She looked at Ji Lili and sighed, What a waste of a good dress! It makes you look short and fat. Your friend is lying to you, and so is the saleswoman. Im just being honest.
As a matter of fact, the dress Ji Lili had chosen was of knee length. It was made ofce and would make a tall and slender girl look very pretty. Ji Lili, on the other hand, was only a little over 5 feet. She was a pretty looking girl, but this dress highlighted her drawbacks and did nothing to enhance her beauty. ln fact, it made her look older than she was.
Besides, this dress was apparently one size bigger than the one that would fit Ji Lili. It didnt fall well on her, at all.
Ji Lili was so full of herself that she chose not to believe a stranger. After all, Shangguan Rouxue was her friend, why would her friend lie to her? Of course Shangguan Ning would not want Ji Lili to look good, which is why Ning and her friend kept dissuading Ji Lili from buying the dress.
Wherever they went, Shangguan Ning would be the one who garnered all the praise. She not only dressed better than Ji Lili, but she was also a better person. Shangguan Ning was definitely beautiful, but to add to that, she was mild and gentle, tolerating and forgiving, caring and warm towards everyone. Ji Lili, on the contrary, was a narcissist, who thought no end of herself.
Shangguan Ning had been tricked by Shangguan Rouxue so many times before. When both the sisters were together, Shangguan Rouxue would try her best to outshine Shangguan Ning. It was the same even now. Shangguan Rouxue enjoyed being the centre of attention and would love to not have to share the limelight with Ji Lili. This is why sheplimented Ji Lili on her choice of outfit, even though it was such a poor one.
Ji Lili had been spoilt rotten ever since she was little. Everything had been handed to her on a tter. Shecked the ability to make her own decisions, so when Shangguan Rouxueplimented her, she was quite ttered. She still chose to believe Shangguan Rouxue and decided to purchase the dress.
She turned to look at Mi Xiaoxiao and said. Who are you to give me any advice? You are not allowed to talk, when I talk! I look good in everything and there is no need for you to get jealous. You two are the ones who are ugly. How dare you call me ugly? I will break your face!
Shangguan Rouxue held Lilis hand and stopped her. Lili, just forget about it. No need to argue and create a scene here. Just forgive them both.
She paused for a moment and then said to Shangguan Ning, Sister, it was my mothers fault, thest time around. My mother poured hot coffee on you. She is old and cant think straight, but you poured hot water over her as well. Her body is full of burns and boils. Arent you even going to visit her to see how she is doing? She brought you up after all.
Shangguan Rouxue wasnt wearing sunsses or make up of any sort, so Mi Xiaoxiao took some time to recognise her.
Hearing her address Shangguan Ning as sister, she stared at Shangguan Ning in surprise. So this popr socialite of A City, was Shangguan Nings sister!
Wasnt she the daughter of the Deputy-Mayor of A City? In that case, Shangguan Ning was also the Deputy-Mayors daughter? Shangguan Ning came from such an illustrious family and was married into an even more influential one, yet no one in thepany knew all this about her. She was Deputy-Mayors daughter and she was married to Jing YIchen.
Since they had run into each other by coincidence, there was no reason for Shangguan Ning to be the one to leave.
She stared at Shangguan Rouxue and said coldly. Oh yeah? She wasnt thinking straight? Had she gone crazy? I already knew of her n. She just wanted to show your fiance what a ruthless woman I am, to scald her by pouring hot water over her, so that you can look like the kind and gentle one. I am the victim so why should I visit the person who is ying the viin in my life? She deserves all that she is going through and I have nothing to do with it!
Besides, it was my mother who brought me up, till I was ten years old. After that your mother robbed my mother of my fathers love and affection. She drove her to death. It was my uncle who brought me up. Your mother was never there for me. All that your mother has done is try her best to get me out of the picture. She even drugged my food. You think that Im blind to all this?
Do you know how the two cats and the dog at home, died? I was upset and didnt eat that day. I gave my food to them, unaware that it had been poisoned. They ate my food and died a slow and painful death. So, dont talk to me about theck of gratitude, otherwise I have enough instances from the past, that throw light on the truth!
Shangguan Rouxue eyes had tears in them. She said sadly. Sister, you have misunderstood us. My mother would never even think of hurting you. She always regards you as her own daughter. She always gave you the best of everything. Every toy was given to you first. I only got the hand-me-downs. Even when it came to clothes, you had the nicest, most pretty looking outfits while I wore your discards. How can you wrong her in this way?
Shangguan Ning knew of the thought process behind this facade of kindness too. When Yang Wenshu gave Ning all the good things, Shangguan Zheng would think of Shangguan Rouxue as the one who always adjusted, and then Shangguan Rouxue would get better things because he felt that she had been wronged.
Everyone would agree that Yang Wenshu was nicer to Ning than her biological mother but only she knew that Shangguan Rouxues new clothes would rot in a pile in the wardrobe at home, and she would put on her old clothes, every time she went out to meet people.

Chapter 123: The Intimidating Shangguan Ning (Part Two)

Shangguan Zheng was the Deputy-Mayor of A city. His post rewarded him with a high sry and a huge bonus. He also earned tens of thousands of yuan, every year, from Liyu Science & Technology. How could he not afford to buy some new clothes?
They were just putting on a show,to gain sympathy from their friends and family.
Ji Lili, who stood next to Shangguan Rouxue, was even more furious. She knew about the incident where Yang Wenshu was burnt by Shangguan Ning.
She got to know because it was Shangguan Rouxue who called her and asked her if she could arrange for a doctor, who could treat Yang Wengshus burns. No other doctor in A city wanted to take up Yang Wengshus treatment.
Ji Lili had to request Family Jis private doctor to go and check on her. It was a pity that he didnt have any good news to share. When he checked Yang Wengshus face he was of the opinion that her facial beauty had been ruined forever, because of the dy in treatment.
Shangguan Ning! I had thought that luring other men towards you was your forte. Clearly thats not your only im to fame. You are also a heartless person. Aunt Yangs face is ruined because of you! said Ji Lili, who sounded extremely annoyed, as if she herself was the victim of Shangguan Nings handiwork.
Shangguan Ning replied to her in a calm andposed manner, Its good that her face is ruined. I had thought that her face would be alright. She really has saved me the trouble of having to pour sulphuric acid on it. I hope your mother, Mayor Ji, knows that you care so much about the well being of Yang Wengshu. In fact, even more strongly than her own daughter Shangguan Rouxue, perhaps? You are so unaffected by the fact that your own mother is unwell and lying sick in bed, whilst you are out shopping. Look at you getting all worked up for someone elses mother!
Mayor Ji Minyu had always faced issues with her heart. She projected herself to be a strong woman who was in the pink of health, but the truth was that two days ago, she had had a heart attack. She was taken to Family Mus Hospital for further treatment. Shangguan Ning got to know about this from Jing Yichen, who identally happened to mention it. He had his sources and he was always in the loop when it came to the political arena in A city. After all, these people and the decisions they made, had a huge influence on his business.
Ji Lilis cheeks were flushed because she was so angry. She was about to say something rude right back at Ning, when Shangguan Ning said, Why dont you look in the mirror, if you think Im lying ?Look at your expression and then look at Shangguan Rouxues expression. You will know exactly what I mean.
Ji Lili was taken aback. She looked at herself in the mirror with a sideways nce.
She saw herself frowning and looking stressed. Shangguan Rouxue, on the contrary, was just standing there looking all innocent and pitiful. It was almost as if it wasnt Shangguan Rouxues mother who had to live with a scarred face, for the rest of her life.
Ji Lili was a simple-minded person, but she wasnt a stupid girl. Ji Lili realized that she seemed to have overreacted.
Shangguan Ning was right. This had nothing to do with Ji Lili. Then why was she boiling her blood over it and getting all worked up? What was her point of getting angry? More importantly, why did Shangguan Rouxue look so indifferent?
Seeing that Ji Lili had realised her mistake, Shangguan Ning continued, You didnt happen to check with your cousin about that matter that we discussed thest time around, did you?
Shangguan Ning already knew that Ji Lili had not bothered to do the needful. If she had, she wouldve learnt by now that it was indeed Shangguan Rouxue who had sent the pictures to Ji Bo, then she wouldnt be hanging out with Shangguan Rouxue any more, leave alone defend Yang Wengshu.
Ji Lili answered instantly,Oh, I refuse to believe your lies. Xue has already told me that she hasnt sent my cousin any pictures. Maybe it was you who sent them to him so that he can hate me. Youre so shrewd. You are definitely capable of doing that. I know that you think that youre so good looking that you can have any man you want. You should know that no man would ever want you because you are so heartless. Xie Zhuojun dumped you and my cousin will never like you either. Just wait and watch. You will die alone.
Mi Xiaoxiao couldnt stand her friend being insulted any more. She held up Shangguan Nings left hand and held it in front of Ji Lili.
She said, in a sarcastic tone, Ah, Shangguan Ning, your wedding ring is so beautiful that it almost blinds my eyes. Your husband loves you so much. This ring is designed by the top-notch jewelry designer Francoise. It is one of its kind and no one else in the entire world, has anything like it. It takes more than just money to buy something so unique.
Mi Xiaoxiao had already seen Shangguan Nings ring on numerous asions before. Just by looking at the ring, Mi Xiaoxiao had known that this work of art was made by none other than Francoise. It didnt take an expert to know that Francoises jewellery was the best there was.
Both Ji Lili and Shangguan Rouxue were shocked beyond words.
Shangguan Ning was married?
That was impossible! Neither of them had heard about it!
Even if she was married, she couldnt possibly afford a diamond ring designed by Francoise!
Francoise was the most famous jewellery designer, in the entire world. He only designed two diamond rings a year. He only used the most perfect natural diamonds, which cost a great deal of money. Also, he was fully booked for the next ten years.
Stop bragging! Its not good to lie so much. Shangguan Ning is using a fake diamond ring to fool us all. Who would want to be married to her anyway?
When Ji Lili said these words, she appeared confident but in her heart, she felt the exact opposite. She was from a rich family. Since she was a child, she was used to the good things in life. She could definitely tell if the diamond ring was fake or real. She knew that Nings ring wasnt a fake.
She frowned as she nudged Shangguan Rouxues arm. Xue, is your sister married?
Shangguan Rouxue was Shangguan Nings sister. She should have definitely known, if her sister got married!
Shangguan Rouxue was speechless. She ignored Ji Lilis question. She asked her sister in disbelief, Sister, are... you married?
No, that couldnt be true. Hadnt she been dreaming about marrying Xie Zhuojun?! How could she get married? And whom did she marry?
Without even looking at her, Shangguan Ning pulled out the golden card that Jing Yichen had given to her and passed it to the saleswoman. I want her dress.
The saleswomans eyes opened wide, in awe, at the sight of the card. This card was a limited edition. Only a handful of such cards were issued by the mall and they were given to an elite few. The parentpany of the mall was none other than Jingsheng Enterprise.
ording to the rules of the mall, the card holders requirement had a priority over all other customers.
The salesgirl didnt dare ask Ji Lili take off her dress, so she went to fetch the other one.
Maam, we have got one more dress that is simr to this one. We have only two dresses in stock currently.
The staff didnt want to be involved in this unpleasant situation. One dress for each one, and there wouldnt be any problem.
Mi Xiaoxiao had her eyes on this dress, the moment she entered the store. Her eyes shone at the sight of the new dress, so she said instantly. We will take it. How much is it?!
Seeing that she liked it, Shangguan Ning smiled as she pointed at the dress on Ji Lili. We want that dress. The one that shes wearing. Well pay for both!
What do you mean, Shangguan Ning! Do you know what youre saying? Ji Lili was furious.
Her voice was sharp, How dare you ask for the dress I like? Believe me when I say, that my mother can make your father lose his job tomorrow!

Chapter 124: The Intimidating Shangguan Ning (Part Three)

Shangguan Ning grinned and said. I know, thats exactly why I really need to buy this dress. I am a heartless woman, remember? Whether or not someone gets to keep his job has nothing to do with me. I only want the most beautiful dress.
That Shangguan Zheng became the Mayor or not, was of no consequence to her. He would only be greedier and eye the next coveted political position, in the process using her as a means to get what he wanted. It might not be such a bad thing, if he lost his job, after all.
Shangguan Rouxue came to Ji Lilis rescue quickly. Lili, dont be impulsive! My father is so devoted to his work. You mustnt do that to him. My sister has been spoiled. Thats why she talks the way she does. If she has offended you somehow, I will apologize to you for her sake. Please, you are generally so tolerant. Please forgive her, alright?
Shangguan Ning smiled. Shangguan Rouxue had started with her drama again. She was trying to act like she was a kind person and as if she really cared about her sister. Apologizing for her sake? Who was she to do that?
Mi Xiaoxiao stared at Shangguan Rouxue in astonishment. She had only seen her gentle and outgoing persona on television, but what she didnt expect was that she was this kind of person in private.
From her behaviour, it seemed as if Rouxue really cared about Shangguan Ning, but if one were to give it a careful thought, it would make people realize that she was setting Shangguan Ning up.
Lili seemed quite scatterbrained too. She was easily swayed by someone elses opinion. She had no mind of her own. Shangguan Ning was right in being annoyed with her.
Shangguan Rouxues pacifying words seemed to have worked. Ji Lili was less annoyed but she didnt want to give away the dress she was wearing and she also wanted to get the other dress.
The saleswoman said awkwardly, I apologise Madam. I am very sorry. Thisdy here holds the golden card of our mall C the holder of this card bes the most important client, in all the stores of the mall. ording to the regtions of our mall, her purchase gets first preference. If she ever files aint, our store will need to move out of this mall, the very next day. Please, just give her the dress. We have other dresses in our store, and you can pick whichever one you want. We will also give you 20 % discount on your purchase.
Ji Lili, who had grown up with a sense of entitlement, had never known what it was like, to back down or give up in a fight.
Why must she have to give the clothes that she spotted first, to Shangguan Ning? She was someone who always got what she wanted. No one dare deprive her of something she had her eyes on.
In a fit of anger, she pped the saleswoman who had done no wrong. She walked ahead and was about to p Shangguan Ning too, when Shangguan Rouxue intervened and stopped her. Lili, she is my sister, please dont do that to her. Sister, please apologize to Lili, she saw the dress first and you shouldnt have asked for it.
Unmoved, Shangguan Ning said, I gave up too many times in the past, but did it achieve anything? You ruined my mood today and I hope I ruined yours too. I want these two dresses, thats definite!
Ji Lili suddenly came up with a n. She sneered and then pulled Shangguan Rouxue into the fitting room. She had changed into her own clothes when she came out. Thece dress that Shangguan Ning intended to buy was torn, Ji Lili had torn it right across its middle.
After she came out, she flung the clothes on the floor and stamped all over the garments. With her chin up, she said, I dont like this dress anymore. Its torn now. You can have it.
Shangguan Ning wasnt annoyed at all. Instead, she smiled at the saleswoman. If I remember correctly, ording to the rules and regtions of the mall, if anyone damages any product intentionally, they would need to pay seven times the product value. Am I right?
The saleswoman nodded at her gratefully. You are right, Madam. Thisdy has ruined this outfit on purpose. Madam, you will need to pay seven times of the product price aspensation. There is nothing I can do about it. I have a record of everything on the cameras. If you dont pay, I will have no choice but to call the police.
Mi Xiaoxiao instigated Ji Lili further. She said to her, Aha, looks like someone doesnt have enough money, when they go out shopping. Dont worry. I have 20 Yuan to spare. Do you want it?
Ji Lili had had enough. She quickly pulled out her credit card from her new Chanel handbag and flung it on the sales womans face and screamed. I have lots of money. Did I say no to pay for the damages? To hell with the police, you bitch!
The saleswoman immediately swiped the card and reinstated, This dress is worth 120,000 Yuan, so yourpensation will be 840,000 Yuan. Please sign here. Thank you.
Ji Lili signed her name in anger. She was rich, but she definitely didnt have money to throw around. Money shouldnt be wasted away like this. Besides, 840,000 Yuan wasnt a small amount. It hurt to see it disappear, in the matter of a second.
It had all been Shangguan Nings fault!
It took Shangguan Rouxue ages to persuade Ji Lili to leave the store and go and look for another outfit in some other store. Ji Lili decided to leave, albeit reluctantly. She red at Shangguan Ning as she walked out and swore to God that she was definitely going to avenge her insult.
When the two annoying women were gone, Mi Xiaoxiao went into the fitting room to try on the dress happily.
When she came out of the fitting room, Shangguan Ning smiled. Its very beautiful, as if it were tailor-made, just for you. No wonder it didnt look good on someone else.
Mi Xiaoxiao exchanged a smile with her, took the dress and paid for it. They left the store together.
In the parking lot, they ran into Xie Zhuojun who came to pick up Shangguan Rouxue and Ji Lili.
Xie Zhuojun was helping the two women put all their shopping bags into the trunk of the car. He was startled at the sight of Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning was wearing a long, light purple dress and a pair of white ts. The breeze lifted the hem of her dress, exposing her beautifully proportioned calves.
She was so beautiful, like the first drop of crystal clear dew in the morning. She was wless.
He called out to her, Ning, you are here too...
Before Xie Zhuojun could say anything further, Shangguan Rouxue interrupted him, saying, Sister, Zhuojun hase to pick us up. Should we drop you somewhere, first?
Ji Lili smirked and said, Hahaha. Didnt you say that you were married? What a pity! Your husband hasnt even bothered toe and fetch you. Look at Xue, she is only engaged to be married, but her fianc loves her so much. What a happy couple! The younger sister has done better than the older sister. Maybe thats why Xie Zhuojun dumped you and cancelled his engagement with you. Sigh, Shangguan Ning, you really are a pathetic woman, who no one loves or cares for!
Shangguan Rouxue pleaded with Ji Lili, Please dont say that, Lili. Sister will be sad... she has never been able to get over Zhuojun. Please dont mention the past, otherwise sister will be angry with me again..
Xue, dont plead for her! You and Xie Zhuojun love each other. What are you afraid of? He can protect you, cant you, Xie Zhuojun?
Xie Zhuojun had tried to avoid mentioning the past, because he really thought that they should let bygones be bygones, and he felt really guilty about it too. He had got engaged with Shangguan Ning first but fell for Xueter. He even slept with Xue, while he was still engaged with Ning, which made him feel worse.
Xie Zhuojun couldnt help but get a bit upset at this moment, when Ji Lili brought up the past, so insensitively.

Ji Lili waited for a while for Xie Zhoujun to back her statement, but heard no response from him. Furiously, she turned to him, only to find that he was staring at Shangguan Ning. His eyes were totally transfixed upon her.
Xie Zhuojun, I am speaking with you. Are you deaf or mute?!
Xie Zhuojun had never really liked Ji Lili. He had found her to be extremely rude. He had told Shangguan Rouxue many times that she shouldnt hang out with her much but it was as if Shangguan Rouxue didnt care much about his opinions.
As of this moment, he couldnt stand Ji Lili. Somehow, he ignored her and said to Shangguan Ning, Ning, get in the car. Let me drive you and your friend home.
Shangguan Ning looked at him in surprise C why was he treating her so nicely? Didnt he hate her for having poured hot water onto Yang Wenshu? Didnt he think that Ning was a ruthless woman?
Mi Xiaoxiaos gossip antennae stood up. She was far more intuitive than most people. She was a smart girl who instantly understood that there was definitely some history between this man and both the sisters. Clearly, it hadnt been a happy ending and she was sure that it was Shangguan Ning who had been wronged.
No need. We have a chauffeur driven car, ready to pick us up anytime we wish. A broken Land Rover just wont do for Her Highness. Ha, too cheap! Her Highness never sits in dpidated cars. You three can have it.
The clever Mi Xiaoxiao instantly changed the way she addressed Shangguan Ning. She was prudent enough to not disclose the name of Shangguan Nings husband, because she realised that maybe Shangguan Ning didnt want these people to know about her private matters. Otherwise Shangguan Rouxue, Nings younger sister would definitely have known about her being marriage with Jing Yichen.
She wasnt worried about getting caught either, because as long as she called her boyfriend, he woulde and act as Shangguan Nings driver, and fetch them both from there.
The three of them thought that Mi Xiaoxiao was just exaggerating.They definitely had no one to pick them up.
Ji Lili was the most impulsive. She said instantly, If anyonees to pick you up today, I will renounce my family name and take up yours instead. If not, then you two losers should kneel on the ground and bark, just like stray dogs would.
The moment she finished her sentence, a state of the art Aston Martin pulled up in front of them, followed by eight brand-new Rolls-Royce cars that were worth tens of millions of Yuan.
The convoy consisted of nine cars that were extremely sleek and luxurious, making Xie Zhuojuns half-worn Land Rover look like a lump of rusted metal.
A man dressed in a suit came out of the first car. He was tall and courteous. He was Tiger, Jing Yichens personal driver.
Ignoring Ji Lili and the other two people with her, he walked straight to Shangguan Ning and said courteously, Your Highness, Master has asked me to drive you home. Master has already bought you what you needed. Please get in the car.
Shangguan Ning nodded and pulled Mi Xiaoxiao, who was still drooling at the sight of the motorcade.
Mi Xiaoxiao was shocked beyond belief. She had just said all that she had, as a joke. She never meant any of it to happen but clearly the President was an intelligent man. He had really sent a convoy of luxurious cars to fetch them.
She didnte back to her senses until Shangguan Ning pulled her into the car. Then she rolled down the window and jeered at Ji Lili, saying, Hey, you! Go home and change your family name when you are done barking! Shangguan Lili! Hahaha, does your father know that you have changed your family name?
Mi Xiaoxiao was unaware that Ji Lili had taken up her mothers family name. She had thought that like all others, she too had followed her fathers family name. This casual mistake drove Ji Lili wild with anger.
She had no father, and she had been brought up by her mother. The word Father was a taboo in her life.
No one dared to mention her father in front of her!
She was so livid that at that very moment she swore that she would reward Shangguan Ning with a terrible death, for her behaviour today. She would see to it herself.
Seeing the onlookers watch attentively as the convoy of nine cars drove away, she couldnt help but swear, What is the point of sending nine cars to pick up these two tramps? What are they bragging for? Family Ji is much wealthier than this! Those two are not worth these luxuries!
Xie Zhuojun and Shangguan Rouxue who sat beside her, didnt respond to her. They were both silent, thinking of different things.
Xie Zhoujun was so used to Shangguan Ning following him around, all the time. As he saw her vanish into the citys traffic in his dream car, Xie Zhuojun felt as if he was losing out on something very important in his life.
She was married and that too, to a man who was so mysterious and powerful. The dont-mess-with-me vibe that the man gave out, was something that Xie Zhuojun couldnt forget to this day.
Shangguan Rouxue couldnt believe that Shangguan Ning was already married!
The motorcade of cars that hade to fetch Ning had made Rouxue so jealous. Ji Lili was so rich and influential and even she hadnt had the luxury of having a fleet of cars like these.
Her recently manicured nails pierced into her palm but she remained oblivious to the stinging pain that followed.
She looked at Xie Zhuojun beside her. A glint of hatred shed across her eyes. Then she held Zhoujuns arm and asked in a gentle voice. Zhuojun, is sister really... married? Why didnt I know anything?
Xie Zhuojun was silent for a long time. Ignoring her question, he said, It is gettingte, lets go home now. I will bete for my meeting tonight.
The smile on Shangguan Rouxues face, froze. He turned around and got into the car without even waiting to see that she wasfortably seated. She was so agitated with his indifference towards her.
It only took one moment for her mask toe back on. In an instant, she became gentle and polite, like she usually was. With her smile still intact, she pulled Ji Lili into the car.
...
Seated in the backseat of the car with Shangguan Ning, Mi Xiaoxiao couldnte to terms with what she was witnessing.
This was the Presidents car. It was extremely luxurious and no other woman had ever sat in it before Ning.
If the women at the Department of Public Rtions would learn that Mi Xiaoxiao was dropped home in the Presidents car, they would definitely go insane with jealousy.
Man, she was a lucky girl! The first girl friend she made at work, turned out to be none other than the Presidents wife. This kind of life was even better than a fairy tale.
She examined the car numerous times. She didnt even spare Tiger, the chauffeur. She sized everything up.
Tiger knew that she was Her Highnesss friend and colleague. Recently, she had clicked a picture of Master and Tang Yun over lunch, before reporting it to Her Highness.
He didnt mind being stared at. Instead, he turned around and smiled at her graciously.
Mi Xiaoxiao couldnt contain her excitement at the sight of Shangguan Nings way of life. She grinned from ear to ear and looked like a fool in the process. Shangguan Ning couldnt stand her silly behaviour anymore. With her teeth clenched, she whispered in Xiaoxiaos ear, Ms. Mi Xiaoxiao, you are an elite white cor employee at Jingsheng Enterprise. Cant you just act more appropriately?

Tiger was a good-natured man and was a novice in the love arena. How was he able to tolerate the flirty behavior of Mi Xiaoxiao who was a veteran in the love battlefield!
To top it, Tiger was a skilled fighter. What if he got annoyed and hurt Mi Xiaoxiao?
Mi Xiaoxiao smirked and whispered. I just want to tease him because he looks like a piece of hardwood! Nothing else. He looks like someone who can be teased easily, hehe...
Shangguan Ning felt helpless. Mi Xiaoxiao had never seen Tiger disying his strength, otherwise she would not have dared to tease him.
...
It was Huang Lihans birthday the following day.
It happened to be a weekend and Shangguan Ning left home with Jing Yichen, early the next morning.
As Jing Yichen was driving, Shangguan Ning made a phone call to her uncle.
Huang Lihan had forgotten that it was his own birthday on that day, so he couldnt stop beaming with happiness when Ning told him that she and Jing Yichen wereing over to celebrate his special day.
Huang Lihan was eagerly waiting at the gate, when Shangguan Ning and Yichen drove into thepound of the vi where he lived.
Seeing her uncle after such a long time, she noticed how much he had aged. The hair at his temples was grey and he didnt stand as sturdily as before. Shangguan Ning couldnt help feeling emotional.
She took a deep breath, got off the car quickly and handed her uncle his present, namely the purple tea set she had recently purchased, and a lovely birthday cake that was customised to suit his taste. She wished him with a smile. Happy Birthday, Uncle! I bought this especially for you. I hope you like it!
Huang Lihan took the present and smiled. Of course I like it. I like whatever you give to me, because you do it with so much love. I ate all the food you made all those years ago, even though it tasted terrible. I did it for you, did I not?
While they were talking, Jing Yichen pulled the car over and parked it. He got off the car as well.
Huang Lihan got a bit surprised when he saw him. He asked Ning, Isnt that Old Jings boy? What is he doing here?
Shangguan Ning grinned and said bashfully, Aha, Uncle, you know Yichen? I brought him here so we could all celebrate your birthday together.
Before Huang Lihan understood what she meant, Jing Yichen already went up and greeted him with respect. Hello Uncle. Wish you many happy returns of the day. Ning wanted to spend your birthday with you, so I thought Id join in the celebrations as well. I hope thats alright with you. I should have visited you earlier but I have been too busy with work to spare any time. Here is the present I got you for your birthday.
He handed the present over to him, with a smile.
Shangguan Ning didnt know that Jing Yichen had taken the effort to get another gift for uncle. She smiled when she realized how thoughtful Jing Yichen was, to have done that. Her heart was full with joy.
Huang Lihan was confused and surprised. It was only after a while that the reality of the situation struck him. He said with disbelief, Ning, what is it going on? Did you...
Shangguan Ning went up to her uncle and held his arm. She said happily, Uncle, Yichen and I are married!
Huang Lihan nced at his niece and then looked at Jing Yichen, as if sizing him up. After a few minutes, he sighed. He was probably trying to ascertain if they were ying a prank on him.
Only after he was sure that they were indeed serious, he mumbled, Old Jing was right. His wish has finallye true...
Her uncles words were inaudible to her. Shanguan Ning asked him, I beg your pardon, uncle? What did you say? Who was right?
Huang Lihan shook his head instantly, Oh no no.. its nothing. He patted Shangguan Nings hand with love said with a smile, Its nothing. I am very happy!
He took Jing Yichens present from him and said to him, looking him in the eye, Ning is like my own daughter. I have brought her up. She is a lovely girl. I hope she has made the right choice.
Jing Yichen certainly understood what he meant. He nodded and said respectfully Oh, it is I who has made the right choice, because she didnt pick me... It was I who picked her.
What he meant was that it was he who chased Shangguan Ning and he was certainly going to treat her well and keep her happy.
However, Jing Yichen had overheard Huang Lihan mumbling his fathers name. Jin Yichen was confused. He already knew that his father had met Shangguan Ning before. Could it be possible that his father had professed his desire to have Ning as his daughter-inw, sometime in the past? Why did Huang Lihan say something about his wish came true?
Shangguan Ning didnt want Jing Yichen to be lectured by Uncle, on not being told of her marriage earlier. She changed the topic deftly and said to him, Ah, Uncle, lets not stand outside. Its too windy here. Lets go in.
Huang Lihan was aware of what she was thinking. If he were to be honest, he was definitely a little upset with Ning for not letting him know about her marriage to Jing Yichen. She may be his niece, but he had brought her up with so much love and effort. She was closer to him than his own daughter. She didnt think it important to let him know when she was about to take such a huge step in her life?
Ning, listen to Uncle for a minute, will you? Why didnt you say anything about getting married? You didnt know this boy for long, right? Why did you get married so soon? Do you know if he is a good person or not? Do you know the issues in his family? Its a terrible mess, I tell you. Have you forgotten all that your uncle has taught you? Think before you act! When are you going to learn?
Jing Yichen was speechless when he overheard what Huang Lihan said. He didnt even know Jing Yichen on a personal level. Why was he saying such rude things about him?
Shangguan Ning pursed her lips unhappily. Im learning, uncle. Youve taught me well. Life has made me a lot smarter, in thest few years. Yichen is very nice to me. Please get to know him before you judge him so ruthlessly.
Aha! I have just said a few words and you have already started to defend him! You dont even want to listen to your Uncle now?
Huang Lihan said, as he pinched her nose. A girl who has attained marriageable age, cant be kept at home anymore! I am so sad. Well, I really need to have a fight with Jing Zhongxiu. He kidnapped my niece and made her a part of his family. He didnt mention a word, when we met yesterday. That old guy is getting more and more secretive, everyday.
Shangguan Ning held her uncles hand and leaned her head against his broad shoulders. She said earnestly, You are talking nonsense, Uncle. I have always loved you. I am closest to you because it is you who brought me up. Dont worry Uncle, Jing is very kind to me too.
Uncle had always been her biggest supporter. She would not have had such a happy and healthy childhood, if it wasnt for him.
Huang Lihans heart felt at ease after listening to his nieces reassurances.
He had brought her up since she was a little girl. She was now married and she never even told him about it. He couldnt help feeling upset.
The only thing that gave his heart some constion was that Shangguan Ning was living a happy married life. That was all he wanted. As long as she was happy,he would be happy.
He knew Jing Zhongxiu very well. He was a man with a heart of gold. He was kind and loving. He had great willpower and was a stickler for discipline. It was only now that Huang Lihan realised how much Jing Yichen resembled his father.
When they went into the living room, Shangguan Ning noticed that the house was all quiet.
She turned to Huang Lihan and asked him, Uncle, where are Aunt and Cousin? Arent they at home today?
Huang Lihan was silent for a moment and then said, We are divorced. You dont need to call her Aunt now. She is not worthy of being called your aunt. I have sent your cousin abroad, for further studies. She lives in a boarding school and is only allowed toe home only once a year.
Shangguan Ning was extremely surprised and cried out, How did this happen? Uncle, could it have been because of me?
Huang Lihan patted her shoulders and said. Dont think too much. It has nothing to do with you. I just couldnt live with her any more... she has changed, and she has even imparted her bad behaviour to your cousin. She never respected me. There was no other way. I had to divorce her.

Chapter 127: That Was Destiny (Part One)
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Huang Lihan didnt n to give his niece too many details about his issues with Lin Yu, who had started to behave like a crazy woman, when they lived together. She had not only developed an addiction to gambling but she had also begun to pawn off her daughters jewellery to fund her bad habits. She even reduced the sry of the staff working in their house. Both of the servants quit soon after.
Her behaviour had created an atmosphere of negativity at home. She had even submitted the ownership papers of this vi as coteral for the loans taken by her brothers. She had kept Huang Lihan in the dark about all this. The business that her brothers had started, failed to generate any profits. The vi was on the verge of being sealed and auctioned off by the bank, in order for them to recover their capital.
What was more, she had picked on Shangguan Ning all the time and she had even hired someone to humiliate her. That was something he was not able to get over.
Lin Yu was the one to suggest a divorce first. She even demanded half the share of his properties as alimony, if he wanted her to leave him in peace.
Huang Lihan had already been let down by Lin Yun, many times in the past. As long as she didnt make a fuss and mess with their reputation, he had suggested that they continue to live together, for the sake of their age and their daughter. They were in their 50s already and their daughter was an adult. He didnt want to make a scene by separating, but since she proposed the divorce, Huang Lihan didnt hesitate either.
It was onlyter that she learnt that it was impossible for her to get most of the properties owned by Huang Lihan, because half of Family Huangs properties belonged to his sister Huang Liyu. This was what their parents had willed, before they passed away.
When marypensation was given to Lin Yun, she squandered it all away. She either gave it to her mothers family or lost it to gambling. Huang Lihan didnt want all of his hard earned money to be wasted by her. They might not even have enough dowry for their daughter Huang Xinyi, when she chose to get married.
Therefore, they mutually agreed on a sum of ten million yuan along with an apartment and a car for her to use. Their daughter would be by his side and would need no more of her care.
Lin Yu had protested many times, hoping to get a higher amount in alimony, but Huang Lihan stood firm to his ground. She understood that it was impossible to get any more money out of him, so she eventually signed the divorce contract.
Huang Lihan didnt want Shangguan Ning to know about these unpleasant things, but he still gave her some background to their divorce, lest she think that she was the reason behind it.
After hearing what her Uncle had to say, Shangguan Ning thought that he was justforting her. She felt very guilty in her heart and promised herself that she would take the effort to keep in touch with her uncle and spend time with him whenever she had time to spare.
Huang Lihan wasnt too sad about his divorce with Lin Yun. He felt rxed without having to face her on a daily basis. She was such a gold digger.
He had known Shangguan Ning since she was a little girl. He knew that she was upset and felt guilty about all this even though it wasnt her fault at all. He tried to distract her by making some small talk, Go and help Aunt Ming in the kitchen. She will not be able to manage everything single-handedly.
Aunt Ming was Huang Lihans family servant. She was careful and honest, but she quit because Lin Yun gave her a sry cut. Eventually, Huang Lihan convinced her to resume her old job and even gave her an increment.
Shangguan Ning understood that he sent her to the kitchen with the intention of distracting her, so that he could talk with Jing Yichen.
She looked at Jing Yichen and whispered, I will be in the kitchen, if you need me.
Jing Yichen smiled at her as ifforting her that he would be alright. He replied, Okay, no problem.
Huang Lihan didnt know how to react when he saw them both behave in this manner. It was so endearing.
He had asked Shangguan Ning to help in the kitchen so the two men could talk and get to know each other better, but these two lovebirds seemed so reluctant to leave each other, even now.
Seeing that Jing Yichen loved his niece as much as she did, Huang Lihan started to feel that Shangguan Ning hadnt made an impulsive decision, by marrying Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen kept Huang Lihanpany, for the rest of the day. They only returned to their own house after they were done with dinner.
What did Uncle say to you today? Shangguan Ning asked Jing Yichen, as she climbed into bed after changing into her pajamas.
Nothing really. He just shared some stories about your childhood. I didnt know that you couldnt sleep alone because you were scared of worms! said Jing Yichen with a chuckle. Other children are generally scared of monsters or ghosts, but you are indeed special!
Shangguan Ning blushed and exined quickly, No way! Uncle was just being silly. When I was a child I was frightened when I saw some creepy crawly worms in the garden. That night I had a bad dream that the worms were crawling onto my feet. I woke up in fright. After that night... I was unable to sleep alone for many nights after...
Jing Yichen smiled, burying his head into her neck, tickling Shangguan Ning.
He looked up at her and kissed her gently on her lips. He said, Why didnt I know about this before? Had I known, I would have kept youpany all night, every night.
What you are suggesting wouldve been impossible. I didnt know you back then. Even if I had known you, I would have never shared my bed with a boy! Shangguan Ning smiled, thinking that he was simply joking.
Oh, no, no my love. Maybe you dont know that you were already my wife back then!
Shangguan Ning was confused. Jing Yichen wouldnt stop smiling. So many things had changed since he married her. It was as if he was a different person around her. He wasnt cold or distant. He was warm and loving. Even his intimacy issues were non-existent when it came to Shangguan Ning touching him. He wished that he could always hold her in this way.
Shangguan Ning said, Nonsense! I was ten years old back then and I didnt know that someone like you even existed in the world. How could I have been your wife?
Jing Yichen wanted so much to take a bite of her. She looked lovely and oh so tempting.
Eventually, he decided against it. Instead, he kissed her face and exined, Thats exactly what I said to your uncle.. that you didnt even know of me, back then. Do you remember wearing my clothes, all those years ago?
When did I ever wear your clothes? Shangguan Nings eyes widened, thinking that this conversation was getting more ridiculous by the minute.
Yes, you did. You soiled your clothes after sneaking into the water to look at the fish. The clothes you changed intoter, were mine.
Shangguan Ning blinked and asked in surprise, That green id shirt was yours?
Jing Yichen grinned, now that she finally remembered wearing his clothes. It was mine. My aunt gifted it to me for my birthday. No wonder it went missing after I wore it only once.
How could Shangguan Ning ever forget that shirt? The green id shirt was too loose for her and the sleeves of the shirt had to be folded up for her to be able to even see her hands. She had used a thin rope as a belt, to wrap around her waist. The shirt looked more like a dress on Shangguan Ning.
She remembered how cold she was after she had stepped out of the water. Changing into the id green shirt had brought her such warmth. Theforting feeling of getting into a clean and dry shirt, all those years ago, was something that she hadnt forgotten to this day.
What she didnt expect was that the blouse would belong to Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning quickly got off the bed and said, Stay here and do not move.
Jing Yichen didnt know what was going on, but Shangguan Ning returned very soon.
She came back to his side happily and gave him something. Her eyes sparkled with excitement, Did you mean this one?

Shangguan Ning had washed the shirt and kept it neatly folded.The color was still bright as before, and the buttons were still intact too.
Obviously, Shangguan Ning had kept it with a lot of care.
Jing Yichen had a very vivid memory of the shirt, so he recognized it as soon as he saw it.
He ced the blouse on the table, carefully and then swept Shangguan Ning into his arms. Eyes twinkling with love, he asked her, You have kept it with you since then?
Shangguan Ning nodded and smiled. She replied softly, Yes, I have kept it. At that time, Uncle Jing... father said that it would fit me. He said it was new, so I could keep it. You know I was very curious. I wondered which kid would this shirt belong to. It was big enough for me to use as a dress.
I really wanted to meet that kid and give him his shirt back and thank him for lending it to me. A part of me also wanted to see how huge was this guy.
Shangguan Ning was only ten years old then and was very scrawny, whilst Jing Yichen was already sixteen years old and was almost 170 cm then. It was no surprise then, that his shirt didnt fit her.
Jing Yichen couldnt help butugh. He was in such a good mood. He didnt even remember when was thest time that heughed so much.
Shangguan Ning always brought him unexpected joy.
He held Shangguan Ning and gave her a kiss. He said, with smile, You are probably the only child who wore one of my favourite shirts, like a dress and then you have the cheek to think that there was something wrong with me because my clothes were so oversized.
Shangguan Ning wrapped her arms around his neck. She said innocently, It is true that I once wore your clothes, but that doesnt mean that I was your wife back then.
Oh yeah? Jing Yichen pinched her cheek and continued, Then whose pink shoes were lying in my house?
Ha? Werent those yours? Shangguan Ning distinctly remembered the pink shoes she saw,in Jing Yichens house. She had even asked him about them, and he had said that the shoes werent his. He had provided no further exnation.
Jing Yichen said gently. I told you that those werent my shoes. How could I have worn pink shoes with flowers? I only got to know today that those shoes were yours.
Mine? Shangguan Ning was even more astounded. She asked anxiously, How did my shoes end up in your house? Did Uncle say something to you, about them? Tell me please.
She had numerous pairs of shoes and she had already forgotten that she had a pair of lovely, pink shoes that had gone missing.
Jing Yichen nodded. Yes, your uncle mentioned the events of that day to me, today. He said that you fell into the river. Your clothes and shoes werepletely wet. You forgot your shoes in my fathers car. He said that that particr pair of shoes were your favorite pair and you cried for days because you misced them. You didnt stop crying until your uncle pacified you by giving you a huge bag of white rabbit candies and a pair of new shoes.
I did remember that I left my shirt in my fathers car but I just couldnt find the shirt. All I found were a pair of pink shoes. I was very annoyed back then, because I thought that he had given my shirt to Jing Yiran. So when I demanded to know where my shirt was, he exined that he had given my shirt to my wife and in exchange my wife had left her pink shoes in the car.
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter, hearing the story.
She could imagine Jing Yichens anger when he asked for the shirt and his reaction on hearing Jing Zhongxius reason for being unable to give him the shirt. She realised that Jing Zhongxiu just needed to get his son off his back, so he hade up with a story to keep him quiet.
Jing Yichen smiled thinking of the entire incident. Dontugh at me! I waspletely dumbfounded back then. My father never jokes and he always speaks and behaves so seriously. He was especially strict with me. I never joked with him either, so when he told me all this, I assumed it to be true.I thought that he really had found me a little girl who would be my wife. Your shoes were so little back then, which was obvious because they belonged to a child! How could I have married a little girl? So I kept the shoes, hoping that someday I would be able to exchange them for my shirt. Its been more than fifteen years, and I have still kept them with me.
Shangguan Ning couldnt stopughing after hearing what he had to say. Sheughed until her stomach hurt.
No wonder he refused to say anything when she asked him about the shoes.
He was afraid that if he told her about the shoes, she would get jealous. It never urred to him that the shoes in fact, belonged to her.
They both couldnt believe what a strange coincidence all of this was.
They wondered about the games that destiny ys. They had known of each other since so many years, without really knowing each other.
Time flew past and years passed. After all they had been through, over thest seventeen years, they, who had never met before, were brought together by fate and went on to be husband and wife. They knew now that the things that they had so carefully preserved, for so many years, belonged to the people they loved and that their seniors had already set the ball rolling, in their favour. This wonderful feeling made them both feel extremely special.
Shangguan Ning leaned in, in Jing Yichens strong arms, feeling extremely happy and secure. She loved hearing his heartbeat.
She thought to herself that things had a strange way of working out. That fickle Xie Zhuojun had never been in her destiny. He had never been deserving of her love. Her meeting with Mr. Right had been arranged by God, a long time ago.
She even believed that even if Zhao Anan hadnt hooked them up for a blind date, she would have eventually run into Jing Yichen somewhere or the other and married him after all.
They were meant to be together as a couple, and they might still be a couple for the next life and the life after.
Jing Yichen also loved holding Shangguan Ning in his arms. He felt like he was this umbre that was protecting her, someone who was his entire world.
He kissed her forehead and looked at her longingly. He then went on and said something that was totally out of context. Honey, tonight feels just right. Lets make a baby tonight,you and I.
Shangguan Ning blushed instantly.She was torn between ying coy and epting his proposal. So shameless! Cant you just be a little more conventional...
I shouldnt be conventional. You were already my wife when you were ten but I didnt get to enjoy my right as a husband, until you turned 27. If I stay conventional any longer, you might make me wait until I be 72. You know what, I should have asked my father right then, about who my wife was. I wouldve approached you directly.
Shangguan Ning bit his shoulder softly and said in a soft voice, You are such a monster to have thought about flirting with a ten-year-old!
Hugging and kissing would have been fine. If I had known you back then, who knows... our children might have been able to walk by now. But not all is lost. Its not toote even now. If we put in some effort, we can make up for lost time. We can get at it several times today and you mustntin about being tired. You have owed me this debt for 17 years and youve got to start paying it back from tonight on!

Jing Yichen troubled Shangguan Ning all night, so when she woke up the next morning, she was extremely tired and her body felt weak. She couldnt help but blush when she saw traces of him, on her body.
Jing Yichen, on the contrary, was fresh and happy. He gave her a kiss when he woke up in the morning and said happily, Wife, I will give you one day off so you can get some rest at home. You dont need to go anywhere. Just wait for me here. We will continue with our mission tonight!
Shangguan Ning immediately got off the bed and pursing her lips, said, Objection! I want to work!
Overruled! Go back to sleep now. Jing Yichen pulled her back to bed. He nodded with satisfaction seeing her huddle under the nket obediently. Then he cleaned himself up and went to the living room to get some breakfast.
After he was done with breakfast, he got ready to leave.The moment he left the house, he received a text from Lee Duo C Master, the Lady is getting ready to leave for work. Is Tiger to wait till she is done or will she drive to the Enterprise, herself?
Jing Yichen smiled helplessly. He didnt want to force Shangguan Ning to sat at home, any more than he already had. He sat in his car and chose to wait for her toe to the parking lot, instead of going to leaving for work immediately.
When Shangguan Ning hurried downstairs and was about to start her own car, she suddenly found Jing Yichens car standing beside hers. He hadnt left yet.
Jing Yichen pressed the button to pull down the car window and showin Shangguan Ning his side profile, he said calmly, Someone is being disobedient again, in their endeavour of trying to be employee of the year. So, I, the President, hereby nominate myself as the driver, who would be honoured to drive such hard working staff to work.
Shangguan Nings heart, which was a bit anxious because she had lied to him, rxed instantly. She burst intoughter, opened the car door and sat in the passengers seat.
Alright, Mr. Driver, we can leave now!
Jing Yichen smiled. He held her down to the seat and gave her a passionate kiss. He didnt let go of her until her lips were swollen.
He put his forehead against hers, breathing heavily, as he said seductively, If you dare to disobey me next time, you will be punished...
Shangguan Ning was in a bit of a daze, after the kiss. She bit her lip, refusing to answer to him. Seeing that he was still holding onto her tightly, she gave him a push and said, Lets leave now, mister. This isnt our bedroom, besides we are already runningte!
It was only now that Jing Yichen released her from his grasp. Then he drove her all the way to thepany.
This time, he didnt allow Shangguan Ning to get off the car, a safe distance away. Instead, he drove directly to the underground parking lot. Then, he took the private elevator, meant strictly for the President and went up to the 76th floor, with her by his side.
Shangguan Ning was not happy to enter thepany with him, fearing that they would bump into someone. She was very satisfied with her equity in thepany right now and she even had some colleagues who had be good friends. Everyone greeted her with a smile and turned to her for help, when they ran into a problem. She was happy with the way things were
She didnt want to ruin this. Once they knew that she was the Presidents wife, they would be very formal with her, unlike Mi Xiaoxiao who treated like she usually did.
Jing Yichen though, refused to let her go, holding her in captivity, in the elevator. forbidding her from leaving by herself. She was too weak to fight him, so eventually she gave in. She had no choice but to enter thepany with him.
Luckily, very few people were at the underground parking lot, so no one saw them entering Jing Yichens special elevator.
Jing Yichen couldnt help but smile, seeing his wife let out a sigh of relief when they entered the office.
Anyone else would have been eager enough to let the entire world know that she was the wife of the most powerful President in A city. She, on the other hand, kept it a secret and refused to divulge a single detail to the others. She didnt even want to take advantage of his influence, to enhance her own status.
The longer the time he spent with her, the more extraordinary he found her to be.
Jing Yichen got to his desk and flipped open a folder lying to the right of the table. He nced through it and found that there were some subtle changes in this form, inparison to thepanys standard format. These changes had made the form much easier to fill up and derive conclusions from. This helped in faster, more effective research.
The contents in the form were brief and urate, giving it a very professional feel.
When did they recruit such talented employees who had an eye for such detail ? He was very impressed. The previous form used by thepany, was something that they had used for many years now. Who wouldve thought of improvising on it ? The current form was perfect.
Jing Yichen turned to thest page of the document and saw the name of the editor, at the bottom of the page C form designer C Shangguan Ning.
He was slightly surprised. He didnt expect to Shangguan Ning to be so multi-talented.
It seemed that Lu Qing had proved to be the right choice to teach Ning all of this. Even in the present day, even though Shangguan Ning was perfectly capable of running the show by herself, Lu Qing continued to provide her with pearls of wisdom.
In the office of the Assistant to the President, Lu Qing was again teaching Shangguan Ning new things.
Lu Qing had been working at Jingsheng Enterprise for many years. He came with a lot of experience and had no drawbacks except for one C he had little knowledge of foreignnguages.
Apart from English, which he could use proficiently, he had no knowledge of any other foreignnguages. Shangguan Ning, on the other hand, was a genius at picking up foreignnguages, which was an added advantage to their team.
Jingsheng Enterprise was involved in many overseas businesses. With Shangguan Ning beside him, Lu Qing was given a tranting device, so that work affairs were handled with double the effectiveness, saving him the trouble of diverting staff from the Department of Foreign Affairs, just to trante the documents.
It was Lu Qing who had decided to put forward a proposal to the old President, Jing Zhongxiu, requesting that Jing Yichen should be allotted one more assistant.
Shangguan Ning had a lot of knowledge and she was capable of picking up all that she didnt know already. She was diligent as well. Although she was Jing Yichens assistant at the moment, after she finished studying the work of different departments, it was very likely that she would be promoted to the post of the Deputy President, of the enterprise. Also, she had a special privilege as Jing Yichens wife, which would probably make her the senior most Deputy President, in the entire enterprise.
Eventually,Jing Yichen would still need an assistant. As Lu Qing was growing older, he realised that his energy levels were not as high as before. He was a fast learner but he was no match for the youth of today.Therefore, it was necessary that a new candidate be decided upon,at the earliest, so that the individual could be groomed for their role.
What was more, it would be better if the assistant was a man.
Lu Qing was not biased towards any gender as such. He was only thinking of it from a professional point of view. It would be much easier for a man to apany Jing Yichen for his business trips across the globe. Besides, they could even share a room , if need be, without any eyebrows being raised.
Shangguan Ning found something very strange. When she had just joined thepany, Lu Qing had said that she would only need his guidance for a couple of months, at most. Three months had passed and he was still teaching her. Not that Ning wasining, because what he taught her, had to do with all the confidential business secrets of Jingsheng enterprises. This was not something one could hurry with. These things wereplicated and important.
She didnt ask him why she was still under his wings. What she did was to pay attention to his instructions and follow them, to study hard and to keep in mind all that he said. This was important because whenever Jing Yichen required specific data rted to a certain department, she would be able to provide him with the relevant details, without any errors.
Shangguan Ning had been working extremely hard this week. She needed to not only handle the affairs at Jingsheng Enterprise, but also had to take care of Liyu Science & Technology. All of this made her quite tired.
She had wanted to take some well deserved rest during the weekend, but clearly that was not what the fates had in store for her.
The moment she got off work on Friday, she received a call.
Shangguan Ning, I am having a birthday party and you are invited!
Chapter 130 - Threat
Chapter 130: Threat
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning was surprised for a moment when she heard the voice on the other side of the phone. She asked hesitantly, Ji Lili?
Of course, it is me! Surprised? Ji Lili said viciously, You muste tonight! I have nned a special surprise, just for you.
If Shangguan Ning remembered right, Ji Lilis birthday was still a few months away. What was she hosting a birthday party for, on this date?
Sensing Shanggan Nings hesitation, Ji Lili understood that very soon all her nning was going toe to naught because Shangguan Ning was surely never going to fall for her story.
Then I think it would be best if I wish you a very happy birthday over the phone because I dont think that I will not be able to join in, in your celebrations.
Ji Lili seemed to have known that she would have said that, so she sneered and said, It is going to be a fun night tonight and I am so excited to get started with it! You have got to make it because tonight, you are going to be the showstopper.
Shangguan Ning had no idea where her confidence came from. She still rejected the offer, and said, It is definitely exciting when the daughter of the Mayor has two birthdays a year. Dont worry, I wont be stealing your show tonight, because you are too ugly and that will make me look pretty, so no one would be interested in looking at you anymore.
Shangguan Ning, you are such a bitch! The ugly one is you!
Ji Lili was still fuming and swearing over the phone, while Shangguan Ning calmly just went ahead and disconnected the call.
She didnt mean to be Ji Lilis enemy, but because of Shangguan Rouxues trick, their rtionship had be bad to worse.
Ji Lili kept asking for trouble. Shangguan Ning was in two minds. She felt like she should have gone to the party tonight, after all. She wouldve gone there and exposed Shangguan Rouxues true colours to all those present.
She was still lost in thought, when her phone beeped. A message had been received. It was from Ji Lili. It read CIf you are not here tonight, then your cousin Huang Xinyis reputation will be ruined. I believe that as her cousin, you wont allow that to happen, will you?
Shangguan Nings heart skipped a bit after she read the text.
Why and how was her cousin involved?
Didnt Uncle say that she was abroad for studies? Or did she not go there at all?!
Shangguan Ning didnt think for too long. Instead, she called Ji Lili immediately.
The call wasnt answered for a long time. Apparently, Ji Lili was trying to y games with her.
Shangguan Ning didnt care about Ji Lilis juvenile behaviour. She would have been pissed off by Shangguan Rouxue and Ji Lili a long time ago, if she wouldve have taken their actions seriously
Yeah, who is it?
Shangguan Ning knew that she was just pretending, so she said coldly, Ji Lili, you better tell me straight out. What is it with my cousin?
Yeah? What did you say? I couldnt hear you clearly, say it again!
Shangguan Ning was worried about Huang Xinyi so she put up with Ji Lilis nonsense. Hearing that Ji Lili didnt want to speak like a mature individual, she also calmed down and changed her pitch ordingly, Ji Lili, do you want to know what your good friend Shangguan Rouxue says about you to outsiders? Do you know why you dont have any friends apart from her? Have you noticed that ever since you got to know her, every other friend that you have had, has been drifting further and further away from you? Are you na?ve or just silly that you cant see all of this?
Shangguan Ning, you are talking bullshit!
You dont need to shout. Save some efforts and ask anyone around you, then you will find the answer youre looking for. Oh yes, didnt you have a friend called Xiaomin. She might be able to tell you a little bit more. I suggest you try asking her. Or you can ask Luo Ying. She is an honest person too and she can tell you the truth as well.
I will be there tonight. Text me your address. Just remember one thing, if anything happens to my cousin before I arrive, you will be responsible for the consequences that you will suffer. You have my word. Family Ji and Mayor Ji are outstanding and have a great reputation but you are the only ck sheep in their family. Anyway, lets see how proficient is the Public Rtions Department at Family Ji, if they were to know that the headline of tomorrows newspaper were to read C Mayor Jis daughter drives over and kills innocent pedestrians, with her car.
How dare you, Shangguan Ning! I will kill you!
Sigh, you get angry very easily. Ive only said two sentences.I have recorded everything you have said so remember that if something goes wrong, we can both go to the police station and enjoy a cup of tea there. I hope that you can still talk in a simr fashion, at the police station. Lets see how long do they keep you in for.
Ji Lili was appalled by Shangguan Nings attitude, on the other side of the phone. She had never expected that Shangguan Ning would ever say anything like that. Shanguan Ning was someone who was bullied most easily and she would not have responded, no matter how much they instigated or insulted her. She was so silently boring that she was not worth fighting with.
And now, she even dared to threaten her?!
Ji Lili felt like she was making a fool of herself while Shangguan Ning was in total control of the situation.
How could Shangguan Ning have changed so much. She was not like this at all.
Ji Lili had always imed to be a princess and she did live a life like one but as of this moment, she felt that Shangguan Ning was the queen, no less.
Sure, she had been dominating and threatening Shangguan Ning with Huang Xinyin, but things seemed to have changed. Strangely, she was the one who felt threatened now.
She could not handle the fact that the tables had turned.
Ji Lili threw her cell-phone onto the ground, smashing its screen. She did not want to hear a word of what Shangguan Ning had to say.
She wasnt sure whom had Shangguan Ningtched herself to. Now she not only had a convoy of cars at her beck and call, but somehow she had also got the conviction to say what she wanted. Well, Ji Lili was definitely not going to stand and watch Ning take centrestage. After tonight, Ji Lili was going to trample over Shangguan Nings newly gained confidence.
She didnt feel better until she had vented some of her rage by smashing some vases.
The servant who had been at her service at Family Ji for many years, instantly swept the ground clean off any shards of ss and also gave her a new phone.
Ji Lili took the mobile and grudgingly sent Shangguan Ning a text,stating her address and the time of the party.
Shangguan Ning had toe to the party tonight, otherwise all of Ji Lilis preparations were going to be in vain.
It was a good thing Shangguan Nings cousin, Huang Xinyi, was easier to fool. It didnt take much convincing to get her toe to the party.
There would be a wonderful show tonight!
Shangguan Ning heard a huge bang while speaking with Ji Lili and she knew that Ji Lili had smashed her cell phone again.
She calmly texted Jing Yichen that she was going to attend Ji Lilis banquet. Then she drove home, ate something and waited for Ji Lilis text.
She had wanted to ask Uncle if her cousin hade back home, butt after giving it much thought,she didnt end up making that call.
Ji Lili had no axe to grind, against Huang Xinyi. She was just using her as bait, in order to make Shangguan Ning attend her birthday banquet, so as to make her lose face somehow.
A short whileter, Shangguan Ning received the time and venue of the party from an unknown number C Eight oclock tonight, at The Royal Crown.
Shangguan Nings wasnt pleased when she saw this address.
This was the most luxurious hotel in A City and she had had two very bad experiences, on both her visits there. She did not want to go for the party tonight, but she knew that she had no choice.
Chapter 131 - Real Face Revealed
Chapter 131: Real Face Revealed
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Huang Xinyi was Nings uncles only child. She was the apple of his eye. She had not been exposed to any of the harsh realities of life, since she was very little, because of which she was very gullible.
Shangguan Ning was never really fond of Huang Xinyi and the two cousins hardly ever got along, thanks to Huang Xinyis temper tantrums. It was one thing to have conflicts with ones cousin, but to allow an outsider to ruin her cousins reputation, was something else. She would not allow that to happen, no matter what.
She didnt want her cousin to fall into any trouble, otherwise Shanguan Ning would owe her Uncle an exnation.
Her uncle had already chosen to separate from his wife. He was living in solitude and his daughter was his only ray of hope. She mustnt allow anything to happen to her, thereby adding to her uncles grief.
When the time was right, she might ask her uncle what were the qualities that he was looking for, in a partner, so that she could set him up with someone suitable.
Although Uncle was in his 50s and his hair was greying rapidly, he was still tall and strong. He was quite the looker, when he was younger and had a lot of girls vying for his attention. Now after he had gone through so much, wrinkles were clearly visible all over his face.He was still mature and confident along with being a sessful entrepreneur. He could easily pass off for a man in his 40s, if he could clean himself up a bit.
Shangguan Ning made up her mind to protect his daughter, because Uncle protected her when she was little. Now it was time for her to return the favor.
Shangguan Ning left home when it was almost 8 oclock. She didnt even put on a dinner gown. Instead, she wore a set of casual clothes with a pair of sneakers.
She wasnt going to attend Ji Lilis fancy dinner party anyway, so there was no need to dress up formally. It wasnt an important asion for her and she wasnt going there for the sake of Ji Lili.
Shangguan Ning didnt know which devious n had Ji Lili devised. For her own safety, she called Lee Duo and told him that a security issue might ariseter that evening, and to have a contingency n ready, in case the need arose.
When Shangguan Ning arrived at the Royal Crown, Ji Lilis birthday party had already started. She had booked out the entire Royal Crown and it was quite lively, even though it was just 8 p.m. The resplendent banquet hall shone in all its glory.
The celebration had started at 7:30 p.m., Shangguan Ning was told. She wondered why would Ji Lili tell her to be here at 8. With her smirk, she answered her own question. Ji Lili did it so that Shangguan Ning could lose her face by walking inte, when all the other guests had taken the effort to show up on time.
A waitress guided Shangguan Ning to the third floor.
The moment the doors of the banquet hall opened, a gush of cool air greeted her face. The crystal chandeliers were shining brightly and the hall was a heady mix of perfume and smoke.
Everyone present at the banquet was dressed to the nines. Most of them wore outfits that were designed by the countrys most popr designers.The crowd were at their elegant best, hoping to catch the eye of the opposite sex. After all, the citys social crme de crme were present at this dinner.
Four men dressed in ck tuxedos were ying their violins attentively on the stage, churning out a mix of retro and catchy melodies for everyone to enjoy.
Shangguan Ning, who was dressed in casual clothes that didnt fit the asion, attracted a great deal of attention, the moment she entered the banquet hall.
She turned a blind eye to all the strange looks that she got. Instead, she was busy seeking out her cousin Huang Xinyi, amongst all these people.
Before she could find her cousin, a woman appeared in front of her, blocking her sight. It was Shangguan Rouxue.
Ning, here you are! Lili said that you were definitely attending this party tonight, but I didnt believe her. You arent dressed in the right outfit, but at least you showed up.
Shangguan Ning didnt want to say anything to her and was about to turn away when she saw Xie Zhuojun walk towards her, holding a ss of wine.
Ning, its you! Xue said that you were toe but I chose not to believe that. Why are you so casually dressed?
Shangguan Ning sneered. What a disgusting couple. They even talked about the same things, as if they had rehearsed the same lines.
Shangguan Rouxue was a well known personality in A City. The moment Rouxue approached Ning, many people at the dinner, turned to look at her.
Those who were invited to Ji Lilis banquet were people who were very rich or very popr or both. They didnt need to work too hard on a daily basis, because their families had ensured that everything was handed to them on a tter. They had a lot of time on their hands and had onlye here for some socialworking. Of course, no one would mind if someone added a dash of drama to the evening.
Shangguan Ning didnt like the feel of this ce or the party. She barely attended dinners of this kind. Besides, she had never visited China, over thest four years anyway, so she hardly knew any people.
Everyone noticed Shangguan Ning wherever she went. After all, she was the only one who wasnt dressed for the asion. Clearly, she didnt have any dressing sense, thought a lot of onlookers. Because of her casual attire, Ning stood out in the crowd. This made it impossible for her to gauge what Ji Lili was upto, on the sly.
Ji Lili was all about looks. She felt that if someone didnt look good, they did not deserve her time or attention. She enjoyed hosting parties and inviting her friends and acquaintances, but she wouldnt think twice before disconnecting from someone who didnt look good or didnt take the effort to dress well.
Shangguan Ning didnt want to waste any time interacting with Xie or Ji Lili. She was worried that any further dy in finding Huang Xinyi, may cause irreparable damage. She politely excused herself and moved away from Rouxue and Xie Zhuojun
A sh of hatred shone in Shangguan Rouxues eyes. She purposely bumped against Shangguan Ning, with her elbow. Xie Zhuojun saw this and wondered if he was imagining things. He knew somehow that this was clearly intentional on Shangguan Rouxues part.
Shangguan Ning had years of experience when its came to Shangguan Rouxue. She had expected her to behave in this way. She deftly moved to the side and sessfully dodged her step sister.
It was a good thing that Shangguan Ning was wearing a pair of sneakers and casual clothes, so she could be swift footed.
Shangguan Rouxue, who was dressed in a long pink prom gown coupled with a pair of high heels, didnt have such good luck.
The moment Shangguan Ning dodged her, Rouxue lost her bnce and fell onto the ground. The red wine in her wine ss spilled all over her outfit, staining it permanently.
This time Xie Zhuojun was witness to the whole episode. He was aware of exactly what had just happened. He realised that Shangguan Rouxue was shocked because she had expected Shangguan Ning to make a fool of herself by tripping over. Instead, Rouxue was the one who had the fall.
Xie Zhuojun was livid. He was still holding onto his ss of wine. After this incident, he was so angry that the wine ss broke into pieces because he clenched onto it so tightly. It fell to the ground.
He looked at his fiance who was still lying on the ground in disbelief.
Shangguan Rouxue, who had all the while imed to be innocent, was indeed innocent. Her heart was pure. Why was Shangguan Rouxue behaving this way?
If Shangguan Ning had taken a step slower, she would have had a fall. This reminded him of something simr that had happened on the evening of his engagement with Shangguan Rouxue. The me for the entire incident had fallen on Ning, when she was the one who had been wronged.
Even now, Shangguan Rouxue was very capable of ming Ning for staining her dress and behaving like she was the victim, when clearly, she was the perpetrator.
Xie Zhuojuns mind went nk. It felt as though the entire world were spinning, and he had a sinking feeling in his heart. He had been lied to, innumerable times over and he felt like such a fool.

Chapter 132: Being Nosy

Xie Zhuojun had a dj vu. He felt like he had been fooled so many times before. The past shed before his eyes. Everytime in the past, the feelingsted only for a few moments and was so transient that he could just turn the other way and pretend like nothing happened. He could just ignore it all and bury his head in the sand.He always chose the easier option and provide Shangguan Rouxue with the benefit of the doubt.
This time though, it was different. The feeling was so vivid that there was no mistaking it. He just wanted to leave right away.
He broke into a cold sweat, thereby wetting his expensive shirt.
Shangguan Rouxue, who had had a fall,had already spoilt her gown. She was in pain, due to the fall, but what made things worse was that Xie Zhuojun didnte to her rescue like he usually did. In fact, he wasnt even remotely concerned.
The moment she stood up and turned to look at him, she saw him look at her with such indifference, that a chill ran down her spine.
He had never looked at her in this way. He was making her nervous.
He had always been gentle and loving towards her.He had promised to always care for her. He wanted to give her the best of everything that the world had to offer. He was somitted to her that no matter what happened, he assured her that she would be the only one he loved!
Then why did it seem like everything had changed recently?
He had been unusually busy these days. When she got done with work at the TV Station, he would not be there, waiting for her outside the Station, to drive her home. When she missed him and wanted him to keep herpany, he was always busy with clients. Even when her mother was injured and needed urgent treatment, he was not by her side.
What was more, when they were intimate, which was hardly evertely, he wasnt gentle and caring. He was harsh and didnt care if she was in pain. She wondered if this was his way of venting his frustration.What had changed?
It was all Shangguan Nings fault!
If she had always stayed abroad and never returned home, Xie Zhuojun would never have second guessed his decision. He had be so fickle.
Her eyes were full of bitter vengeance, whenever she looked towards Shangguan Ning.
Somehow she had been able to acquire Xie Zhuojuns attention and cut Shangguan Ning out of the picture. Even though it had all happened four years ago, she was confident that she would be able to pull it off, even today. She was never going to allow Shangguan Ning to stay in A City!
It was as if Shangguan Rouxue had multiple personalities. In an instant, the hatred in her eyes was reced by innocence and sadness. If someone was to look at Shangguan Rouxue now, they would think that it was all Nings fault that Rouxue had a fall.
Sister, how can you treat me like this? I am your sister! You ruined my mothers face but I dont me you for that. That doesnt mean that you and I cant have a chat and sort out our differences by means of a conversation. Why did you have to do this to me? I really miss you.
Most people had not watched the whole drama pan out from close quarters, like Xie Zhuojun had, so it was easy for them to fall in line with Shangguan Rouxues version of what happened. Now they all were under the impression that it was Shangguan Ning who caused Shangguan Rouxue trip over.
Guests looked at Shangguan Ning with disgust. How could someone do this to their own sister? Especially if the sister was extending an olive branch of peace and was willing to talk things out? Only Xie Zhuojun, who was standing next to Rouxue had watched her behaviour and expressions change, in a matter of minutes. He was hating Shangguan Rouxue more, with every passing minute.
Seeing Shangguan Nings expression, which was still calm and unaffected by all this, he felt as if he had made a huge mistake by choosing to be with Shangguan Rouxue.
Shangguan Rouxue panicked when she noticed that Xie Zhuojun was staring at her. She wasnt sure if Xie Zhuojun had noticed her actions, but judging the way he was looking at her, it looked as if he had definitely picked up something.
No, no, she mustnt allow Xie Zhuojun to doubt her. She was going to marry him and spend the rest of her life with him. He mustnt suspect her.
Shangguan Rouxues face lost colour. She had to think of something. She pretended as if she had hurt her foot. Tears rolled down her cheeks and she looked like she was in a world of pain. Zhuojun, I just twisted my ankle, please help me up, it hurts so much...
In the past, this trick had always worked, whenever she chose to use it. No matter how angry Xie Zhuojun was, he would definitelye to her aid andfort her.
This time, she waited for a while but got no reaction out of Xie Zhuojun. She even repeated herself twice, in case he hadnt heard her the first time around, but he still didnt move. He just stood there, transfixed, like a statue.
Just then, the doors of the banquet hall opened to wee another well known personality. He was extremely good looking and had a maic personality.
The moment he walked in, he had the attention of all the women in the room.
He was tall and handsome. He looked so perfect that it wouldnt be wrong of someone to mistake him for a demiGod. His eyes twinkled with energy and he spoke with a sexy drawl. He fit in perfectly with the crowd this evening, but somehow still managed to stand out and hold his own in a sea of guests.
Shangguan Ning subconsciously turned to look in the direction of the doors, when she heard them open. She found herself looking at Jing Yiran, who spotted her as soon as he entered the venue.
He was dressed in a dark brown English-style id suit with a double breasted jacket. It was a style that was a ssic and never went out of fashion. Even though he was impably dressed, there was no way to hide his frivolous nature.
Shangguan Ning didnt like him, so she ignored him and continued to search for Huang Xinyi, without wasting any more time.
Since Jing Yiran had entered the hall, all the women present wouldnt stop looking at him, hoping that he would look their way too. He, on the contrary, was only interested in one woman. The one who couldnt care to even give him a passing nce.
He wasntining. As long as she wasnt unwell and fighting for her life, like the other day, he was alright. It wasnt as much fun for him, when she wasnt able to bite him and beat him. He loved it when she put up a fight. It made him desire her more. Just thinking of the things he could do to her now, made him feel all charged up.
When Jing Yiran was excited, he became nosy and talkative.
With hands in his trouser pockets, he swaggered to the side of Shangguan Rouxue and gave her a yful nudge. He then said mockingly, Hey, Ms Shangguan. Your acting is so terrible. Thank God your livelihood doesnt depend upon it. Cant you see that you have given yourself away? Your act is up. Havent you noticed that your fianc isnt even paying attention to you? Just get up and get out! Sigh, strange are the ways of the world! Even famous socialites have to put on such terrible acts and beg for attention!
After showering insults on Shangguan Rouxue, he ignored her and moved on to Xie Zhuojun.
Yiran said to him,Have you lost your mind? How can you bear to be with this vicious woman? Oh yes, yes, I recollect. You were in aa or something right? What can else one expect out of someone like you? Haha, this is so fascinating. Anyway, whatever rocks your boat, buddy.
Jing Yiran couldnt care less, whether it was Shangguan Ruoxues expression of astonishment or Xie Zhuojuns anger. I dont think that you could think straight. You cant be med though. You were a vegetable, so you can be forgiven for making such poor choices. Its sad that you still havent corrected your mistakes. Youd better do something now or it would be toote, once you get married to her C he said, pointing to Shangguan Rouxue. He continued,Divorce would prove to be very expensive for you. Your entire estate would be divided and youd have to pay huge amounts of alimony every month. All this effort that you take to earn all this money, would go to waste. Understand? Sigh, I dont think you do.
Oh yes, I have brought you some a present. C Yiran said, as if he had just remembered something suddenly. He scooped out a crumpled picture from his pocket and forced it into the hands of Xie Zhuojun, who was already not in the right frame of mind.

Chapter 133: Jing Yiran Sent Present Again

Jing Yiran said sarcastically, Here, the picture that I just gave you is free of cost. Thats the least I can do, for those who are differently abled. This picture is just one of many, so let me know if you want some more. Just dont expect it to be free each time.
Jing Yiran talked so much that he was getting annoying. Although Xie Zhuojun couldnt stand this guy any longer, he also couldnt help looking at the picture, he had just been given.
In the picture, a beautiful woman was sitting on thep of a slightly overweight man. They both were really into each other, as if discussing something very interesting. The woman was smiling happily.
The picture was clicked in the dark or at some ce that didnt have great lighting. It couldve been a bar or a nightclub.
Xie Zhuojun still recognized the woman in the picture.
His first reaction was that this picture was a fake.
This woman in the picture, sitting on someone elsesp, couldnt have been Shangguan Rouxue. This picture must have been photoshopped, for sure.
Xie Zhuojun wondered why this stranger needed to lie to him. He didnt have any motive to present Xie Zhoujun with an edited picture. Jing Yiran got nothing out of it.
Just the thought of the woman in the picture being Shangguan Rouxue was killing Xie Zhoujun.
He had already received enough fatal blows for today. He was sure he wouldnt be able to take any more nasty punches that life threw at him. He didnt want any more proofs of Shangguan Rouxues shameful acts of disloyalty.
She was a woman whom he had loved loyally,for four years!
He wished that this had all been a fragment of his imagination.. a lie.. he wished that someone woulde there and tell him that all this was just a nightmare. Sadly, it wasnt to be and he knew it. This was the truth. in, simple and too bitter for him to ept.
Seeing the change in Xie Zhuojuns expressions because of the picture, Shangguan Rouxue stopped acting like she was hurt. She got up from the floor and decided to take charge of the situation. She grabbed the picture from his hand and had a look at it. She couldnt believe her eyes.
How did Jing Yiran get hold of this picture?
But that was not important right now. First and foremost, she needed tofort Xie Zhuojun, who looked as if the ground had been pulled away from under his feet..
Zhuojun, dont believe him! This picture is definitely photoshopped. The woman in the picture isnt me!
Zhuojun, please trust me. I love only you. How could I ever do something like this? Dont you believe in me? Im not feeling well. My ankle hurts and my dress is stained. Can you drive me home now?
Xie Zhuojun stared at her for a while, in silence, and didnt look away for a long time. Shangguan Rouxue felt creeped out. Then he left the banquet hall, without saying a word to her or to anyone else.
Shangguan Rouxue pursued him and intended to catch up with him quickly. She ran out of the hall, holding her gown off the ground, in order to be able to run faster. She mustnt lose Xie Zhuojun, no matter what.
Shangguan Ning was a bit surprised to see what Jing Yiran was capable of. He had achieved in a few minutes, what she intended to do since she got here. Have Xie Zhoujun and Shangguan Rouxue leave the party.
They had been irritating her ever since she got here.
Shangguan Ning hadnt found Huang Xinyi even after thoroughly searching through the entire crowd. Nor could Ji Lili, be seen anywhere, even though she was the host of the birthday party,
When Ning was about to check the exit, she noticed that the light on the fourth floor was on as well. There must be someone there too. She was about to go upstairs and have a look when Jing Yiran stopped her.
My dear beauty, you are not as loved as you think you are, are you? Why does everybody want you dead? One, two, three, four people that I know of, who dont want you to have a good life. Why dont you consider being my girlfriend? I am a powerful guy and anyone, except for Jing Yichen, who wants me dead, is dead. How does it sound? How good am I?
Shangguan Ning got to the crux of the entire nonsense that he had just spoken. Which four people are you talking about?C she asked.
Aha! Jing Yiran was surprised. He realised that he had said too much but she had caught on to his words.
Oh wow!! So you are not only beautiful, but you also have a sharp mind. Not bad. I must say that I am very impressed. Beauty with brains is a lethal and rarebination. Women like you are a challenge to please. Thats what I love. I want to take you to bed but you put up such a fight. Do you know how much it turns me on?
Shangguan Ning ignored his crap. She asked, Which four people?!
Something in her heart told her that Ji Lilis threat had something to do with Jing Yiran. Ji Lili knew that by herself, she was no match for Shngguan Ning. Even coupled with Shangguan Rouxue, they werent able to cause Shngguan Ning any harm. Threatening Ning by using Huang Xinyi as bait, must have been Jing Yirans idea. He definitely knew where Huang Xinyi was.
To Shangguan Nings surprise, Jing Yiran answered her question, instead of just ignoring it. The first person who wishes to see you dead, is someone whoes from Family Ji. I am sure you already know about it. Jesus, she hates you so much that she is after your blood. Honestly, what did you do to annoy that crazy woman?
Oh, yes, the second one is that Xue or Xie, who ran after her fianc just now. You really are outstanding, arent you? Even your step sister wants you dead. I really wonder how you managed to survive living with her, for all those years. That girl is so vicious that if you werent lucky, she wouldve been killed many times over, by now.
As for the third one, it is your very own cousin, whom you are looking for tonight and whom you havee to rescue. Sigh, I really feel sorry for you. You treat her so nicely and even came to help her out, even though it was dangerous to your own well being. Let me tell you that she hates you from the bottom of her heart. You are such a smart woman. Howe youre so na?ve when ites to those who are closest to you? It shouldnt matter if the person who harms you is your cousin or friend or acquaintance. If this person wants you dead, then youd better do something about it. You shouldnt risk you own life to save her. Dont let them be your weakness otherwise the whole world will take advantage of you.
Hearing Jing Yirans words, Shangguan Ning was certain that Huang Xinyi was on the fourth floor of the building.
She was no longer interested in listening to what Jing Yiran had to say. She turned around, opened the door of the banquet hall, walked up the staircase and got to the fourth floor.
Hey, Im not done yet. Dont walk away from me. You need to know what youre doing wrong.
Seeing her continue to walk away, unhindered by hisments, Jing Yiran left the banquet hall too.
When he caught up with her, he asked, Dont you want to know who the fourth one is?
Jing Yiran was about to touch her face when Shangguan Ning bit his hand, impulsively, in an effort to stop him from touching her.
Jing Yiran winced in pain. He moved his hand away from her and made no effort to make any physical contact with her, for now. He cursed. Have you looked at a Chinese calendar? Were you born in a dog year? Always biting people! These ugly scars on my hands are all your handiwork.
Jing Yiran was aware of the hatred that Shangguan Ning felt towards him. He never showed it but if he said he was unaffected by it, he would be lying.
He took a step forward and stretched his hands to try and grab Shangguan Ning. He wanted to rip off her overcoat.
Shangguan Ning moved away in an instant, so Jing Yiran only managed to get one of her coat buttons.
He was about to try and make a move on her again. In a fit of anger and panic, Shangguan Ning kicked him hard.
Jing Yiran didnt expect her to be so agile. The kick made him lose his bnce and he fell backwards, rolling down the entire flight of stairs.
Chapter 134 - The Trap (Part One)
Chapter 134: The Trap (Part One)
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning didnt expect that Jing Yiran would have such a bad fall. After spending so much time with Jing Yichen every single day, she had already picked up some of his traits, self defence being one of them. She had thought that Jing Yiran would be equally quick in responding or dodging her attack, but unexpectedly he was not as quick footed as what she had thought him to be.
Jing Yiran was hurt and used the choicest profanities while hey on the lowest rung of the stairs. Shangguan Ning, how dare you do this to me? You are dead meat.
Shangguan Ning suddenly regretted that she didnt kick him any harder than she already had. Hearing his empty threats, she felt like he deserved much worse than what he got.
Ning was still worried about Huang Xinyi, so she had no further time to waste with Jing Yiran.
She turned around, took a few stairs and came to the entrance of the fourth floor. She pulled the door open and walked in.
The fourth floor was much smaller than the third floor but was definitely more luxurious in terms of its decor.
On a cozy dull gold sofa, a somewhat handsome looking man was forcing Huang Xinyi intoplying with his wishes while he tried to get intimate with her. Most of her clothes were lying in a pile on the floor. The side of one of her breasts was clearly visible.
Ji Lili wasughing and watching the couple while three equally good looking men waited their turn. There was one more surprise addition to the all of them C Tang Yun. Instinctively, Shangguan Ning knew that she was the fourth person that Jing Yiran was talking about.
One of the men licked his lips in anticipation of what was to follow. He urged the one on the sofa, impatiently, What are you dragging this for, Wen? The three of us are still awaiting our turn. Give us all a chance to have some fun, will you.
Shangguan Ning didnt give much thought to how Tang Yun had teamed up with Ji Lili. They both had amon enemy, namely Shangguan Ning, and that was reason enough. For now, her focus was to rescue her cousin out of this hell hole. She was so angry and disgusted with them that she would dly and not even feel guilty about it.
Get away from her. Dont you dare touch her!
Shangguan Ning shouted out loud but in her heart she in her heart, she was extremely scared. She hoped nothing would go wrong. If Ji Lili really hurt her cousin to get back at her, she would be unable to face her uncle ever again. Uncle had thought that by sending his daughter abroad, she would be safe and away from prying eyes. For some reason, though, Huang Xinyi hade back and fallen into all this trouble.
She ran towards Huang Xinyi, hoping to free her somehow.
But the other men standing there seemed to be well prepared. They stopped her and one of them held her by her arms.
Huang Xinyi, who was being held down by this man, was trying hard to cover her chest. She shouted, as tears streamed down her cheeks, Cousin, please save me! These men are awful! I dont want to stay here. Get me out of here.I want to go home.
Shangguan Ning was helpless because she was by herself and the three men in front of her didnt allow her to get any closer to Huang Xinyi. Instead, they eyed Shangguan Ning greedily.
They may have been good looking, but they all made Shangguan Ning sick.
One of them sneered and said to Ji Lili. Lady Ji has such refined taste. Tonights going to be a fun night. We brothers are a lucky lot.
He smiled menacingly as he stretched his hand, trying to touch Shangguan Nings face.
Before he was able to touch her, he was stopped by someone who twisted his wrist and broke a few bones in the process.
A spine chilling scream followed.
Then the voice said, Who gave you the permission to touch her?
The fall had caused Jing Yirans well-styled hair toe unkempt. His dapper suit had be dusty and wrinkled but that didnt take away from his handsomeness. If anything, his messy state made him look all the more rugged and appealing.
The man whose wrist had been broken was in a world of pain. He controlled himself from saying or doing anything because nobody messed with Jing Yiran and got out of it unscathed. He mumbled, Second Master, I didnt... know that she belongs to you, I...
Jing Yirans cut him off and said, Who said that she is mine?
The man was startled. Why would Jing Yiran rescue her if they werent involved?
Ji Lili and Tang Yun werent the least bit surprised to see Jing Yiran there. Both of them knew him, but what they didnt know was that they both got to know of each other, thanks to Jing Yiran who had secretly brought them together, without them being aware of it.
Ji Lili was a spoilt brat. She was very unhappy that her n was ruined. She still had time before her n nose dived intoplete failure. She warned Jing Yiran angrily, Second Master, youd better not get involved. You have nothing to do with this matter. If you dare to interfere, I will have the security throw you out!
Instantly, she knew that she had said too much. Although she wasnt scared of Jing Yiran,she had crossed the line by threatening him. She said what she had, in a fit of anger. In reality, she didnt dare to offend him. He was a crazy pervert, and Ji Lili was no match for him.
She had no idea what was brewing between the bitch Shangguan Ning and Jing Yiran, but she swore to find out soon.
However, Jing Yiran said unaffectedly, Its just upsetting to see an ugly person touching a good-looking woman. As long as no man touches her, Im game for whatever ns you have in store for her. I wont interfere.
Ji Lili wasnt smart enough to understand what he meant, but Tang Yun, who was standing beside him, smiled knowingly.
Alright, you need to keep your word! You are not allowed to interfere with whatever I do next! Ji Lili said loudly, hoping he didnt change his mind.
Shangguan Ning stood there in silence, listening to these people decide her life or death, with such indifference.
Seeing Huang Xinyi who was still crying and struggling in vain, to push the guy away from her, Ning seized the opportunity while she still could and called Lee Duo from her phone.
She was strong but she was just one person and no match for all of these people, none of whom wanted to see her alive. There was no way she could overpower them all.
Lee Duos phone rang incessantly but there was no reply from him. He generally answered her call within a single ring. Where was he today?
A terrible feeling arose in Shangguan Nings heart.
What was happening?
Seeing her face get so pale, Jing Yiran smiled Pretty girl, dont try seeking help from your convoy of bodyguards. Those obstacles have been eliminated. The person you are waiting for, is not going to be able to save you. Look at me. I had to channelise a great deal of effort to make all of this fall into ce. Ive even lost some weight, thanks to all the stress of preparations.
After she heard what he said, Shangguan Nings felt a shiver go through her spine.
Jing Yiran was always against Jing Yichen, and he would spare no efforts to keep him apart from Ning.
Ning prayed fervently, hoping for Jing Yichen to be fine.
Shangguan Ning tried not to think of the worst and focus instead on the task at hand. She turned to Ji Lili and said in a cold voice, Ji Lili, let go of my cousin. She is not your enemy. If you have something against me, speak to me about it. She is innocent and in no way involved in this muck. Let her go.

Ji Lili couldnt help butugh out loud, like a lunatic. She was happy that she had finally caught hold of Shangguan Nings weakness.
She savoured her victory for a few minutes and then said calmly,Shangguan Ning, arent you a strong woman? Arent you married? Where is your husband? Why is he not here for you? Didnt he have a convoy with all those fancy cars, a couple of days ago? Maybe he is someone who is nouveau riche and a coward too. He obviously did all that just to show off but where is his might, when you need him?
Only Jing Yiran and Tang Yun knew who Shangguan Ning had married. Both of them looked at Ji Lili, but neither of them wanted to fill Ji Lili in on the details, because they both were vicious people who wanted to let Ji Lili learn of the reality, the hard way.
They were happy to see her tormenting Shangguan Ning right now which would eventually lead to her getting tormented by Jing Yichen,ter.
Both of them stayed calm throughout the entire process, because Ji Lili had a hot temper and no brains. She couldnt wait to avenge her insults.
Shangguan Ning looked at her and said, It is not up to you to decide what kind of man my husband is. You are just jealous. If you really meant business, you wouldnt have involved my cousin in this. You basically emotionally ckmailed me intoing here.
Ji Lili hated how calm Shangguan Ning was. It was because of this pretentious behaviour of Shangguan Ning that attracted her cousin Ji Bo to Ning. Ning was responsible for Ji Lili not being able to win the heart of the man she loved so dearly.
Ji Lilis eyes gleamed with anger. She sneered. Bring Huang Xinyi to the third floor and if Shangguan Ning doesnt follow my orders, then strip one more piece of Huang Xinyis clothes, from her body.
Huang Xinyi was currently wearing only one white silk slip dress. Stripping one piece of her clothing would simply mean stripping her naked.
Ji Lili walked down the stairs onto the third floor.
Everyone followed her and came to the banquet hall on the third floor.
On the third floor, the guests were chatting amongst themselves and enjoying the party. All chatter stopped as soon as Ji Lili made a dramatic entry. All was quiet, as if the guests were waiting for Ji Lili to speak.
Ji Lili gestured at the violin yers to leave the stage. She got onto the stage herself and grabbed the microphone. She went on to say, My birthday banquet finally starts! The show begins soon, just wait and see!
The guests all apuded loudly for her, which pleased Ji Lili no end. She had always enjoyed being the centre of attention, ever since she was a little girl.
A friend suggested that hearing a melodious voice sing a few songs, would elevate the mood of the evening. Shangguan Ning, why dont you get on stage and sing a song or two for all thesedies and gentlemen?!
Shangguan Ning was startled. She didnt expect that Ji Lili would make her sing a song!
She realized of course that Ji Lili was only trying to embarrass and humiliate her, by asking her to sing.
When Shangguan Ning saw the man who was holding Huang Xinyi at ransom, trying to strip off her dress, she had no choice but to go up to the stage because she knew what was at stake.
Although singing would have been fun under other circumstances, right now it was extremely demeaning for Shagguan Ning. Ning thought it was much better for her to be insulted than for Huang Xinyi to be stripped naked in front of so many people.
Besides, singing wasnt such a difficult thing. She took a deep breath, took up the microphone and started to sing softly.
Ji Lili refused to give her any music to go along with, in order to embarrass her further. But Shangguan Nings voice was clear and clean, and even without music to help her along, her voice sounded melodious and dreamy.
Most listeners and guests had no idea of the problem between Ji Lili and Shangguan Ning. In fact, many of them had started to cheer for Ning by now.
Ji Lili was extremely annoyed . Shangguan Rouxue had said that Shangguan Ning sang off key, and her voice was worse than a frogs, but the truth turned out to be totally different from what she was told.
She was trying to humiliate Shangguan Ning but her actions seemed to have the opposite effect. She had, instead, helped her gain poprity.
Before she finished a song, Ji Lili interrupted her. She ordered someone to pass a bottle of red wine to her. She was going to teach Shangguan Ning a lesson shed never forget.
I will count to ten and you must finish drinking this, or I will pour this wine all over your dress.
People finally realized what was happening. Ji Lili was trying to humiliate the woman on stage, because she didnt like her.
It wasnt as if something like that hadnt happened before. She did these things often and no one was surprised. They continued eating the hors doeuvres and sipping on the wine, while the drama unfolded.No one cared about Shangguan Ning anymore.No one recognized her. She was just someone who had turned up in casual clothes, at a formal dinner party. She obviously couldnt afford a formal gown. She must be someone who came from a poor family. No one wanted to side with her and risk offending someone as influential as Ji Lili.
Shangguan Ning nced at the red wine. The bottle said that its volume was 750 ml. Shangguan Ning knew that she would never be able to finish it within ten seconds.
Also, she had a very low tolerance to alcohol. She would definitely fall unconscious after finishing the bottle, that is, if she ever could.
Ji Lili was trying to hurt her on purpose. She could sing, because that was just something silly inparison to getting drunk. If she chose to drink the wine, she wasnt sure if shed make it out of here alive, leave alone being able to save Huang Xinyi.
She looked at Huang Xinyi and then tried to gauge the distance from this ce to the gate. She started to wonder if she and Huang Xinyi could make a run for it, somehow.
Seeing that Shangguan Ning didnt start to drink as yet but had simply held on to the wine bottle, Ji Lili got so furious that she didnt bother ordering the man to strip Huang Xinyis clothes. Instead, she grabbed the bottle from Shangguan Nings hand and started to pour it over her head.
Shangguan Ning stood there, eyes closed. Without moving an inch, she allowed the red wine to trickle down her head, face and body.
She was afraid that if she resisted, Ji Lili would harm Huang Xinyi even more. She was a crazy woman and she was capable of doing anything. JiLili must have done this many times before. It wasnt a big deal for her to hire a few men and get them to humiliate another woman.
At this moment, Shangguan Ning was soaked in red wine, from head to toe, looking like a mess. Her clothes were stained by the wine.
Seeing her in this state, Ji Liliughed happily. She still wasnt satisfied with the humiliation she had caused Shangguan Ning. She said to her, Get down on your knees now, Shangguan Ning!
Shangguan Ning looked at Ji Lili, who looked like she had lost the plot.
Didnt you hear what I said? Get on your knees! Okay, so you dont want to do it? Then dont me me for stripping your cousin naked. It is you, her cousin, who doesnt want to save her.
On the other end of the stage, the man who was holding on to Huang Xinyi tightly, stripped a part of her slip dress. Her thighs were now clearly visible.
Huang Xinyi screamed in fear, Save me, Ning! I cant take this any more!
Shangguan Ning nced at Huang Xinyi who was now almost half-naked. Ning was extremely furious but there was nothing she could do. She got down on her knees, with her teeth clenched in anger and helplessness.
She couldnt allow Huang Xinyi to be humiliated in front of so many people. Huang Xinyi wouldnt be able to live with it.
Jing Yiran who was sipping some wine in the corner, frowned. He wasnt happy about what was being done to Shangguan Ning but he didnt want to put a stop to it either. Shangguan Ning being humiliated meant that Jing Yichen was being humiliated too, to some degree. Seeing Jing Yichen lose face in some way, made him happy.
Seeing that Shangguan Ning had finally relented and gone down on her knees, gave Ji Lili immense satisfaction. She came to Huang Xinyis side andughed. Ji Lili patted Xinyis bare shoulders and said, Look, Xinyi, I have finally avenged you! How do you n to thank me?
Huang Xinyi, who had been crying and screaming all this while, pulled out her silk scarf from the man who was holding her, wiped her tears and smiled. Sister Lili, I really need to thank you from the bottom of my heart.You are so clever to have thought of such a good idea. You really have taken a befitting revenge on my behalf.

The guests who were glued onto this little spectacle, were astonished by this drastic change in Huang Xinyi. They couldnte to ept the fact that these two women who behaved as if they were sworn enemies, hade together, in an instant.
Huang Xinyi had plotted with Ji Lili to set a trap for her own cousin.
Her cousin had sung for everyone for her sake, and didntin even when red wine was poured over her body and clothes. She even went down on her knees in front of Ji Lili, all because she was genuinely worried about Xinyis safety!
Turned out that all this was part of a well thought out scheme, put together by Ji Lili and Xinyi.
This woman, Xinyi, seemed to be really dangerous. Until a few minutes ago she pretended to y the victim and in the next few minutes, she revealed her true intentions.
Shangguan Ning was the one who got most appalled.
She never expected that Huang Xinyi was in on this n. She thought that Huang Xinyi had been tricked by Ji Lili, intoing here. She had never imagined that her own cousin Xinyi would conspire with Ji Lili, so that they could humiliate her together.
Shangguan Nin was heartbroken. She wasnt sad or surprised at Ji Lilis behaviour because this is exactly what she had expected out of her. What hurt her the most was that her own cousin had stabbed her in the back. Ning felt betrayed.
Shangguan Nings knees hurt. She was about to get up when two men got to where she was and refused to let her do that.
Huang Xinyi walked towards Ning and pped her hard, across her face. Shangguan Ning was still on her knees, being held in ce by two strong men. There was no way she could have defended herself. Her face was swollen as a result of the onught.
Ahaha, you are such a mess. Such a pity! Huang Xinyi was in a jovial mood. She didnt care about anything else, at the moment. She wasnt bothered about her exposed chest and legs. She pointed at Shangguan Ning and said. Shangguan Ning, finally you have got what you deserved. You not only lived in my house, off our charity, but also persuaded my father to divorce my mother. My father even sent me abroad for studies. You have destroyed my family.
Blood gushed out of the corner of Shangguan Nings lip, but she still looked up and said, Huang Xinyi, I didnt know that you have lost your mind. You will definitely regret all that you have done today.
Nings tone was so cold and her look so fierce, that Huang Xinyi felt quite uneasy.
Huang Xinyi turned to Ji Lili instantly, Sister Lili, do you have someone who can break her arms or legs? She broke my armst time, without mercy, and I suffered from so much pain. I will definitely give her a taste of her own medicine today. I will ensure that her arms are broken too!
Huang Xinyis idea met with Ji Lilis immediate approval. She pped her hands, sadistically. Five and Six, break her arms! I have never seen anyones arm being broken. Use all your force. If she doesnt scream, consider yourself fired. You will never be allowed to work for Family Ji ever again!
The two men who were holding down Shangguan Ning, nodded in acknowledgement. They raised Nings arms and were just about to break them, when they fell to the ground in a pool of blood.
All those present heard a gunshot being fired. The men who were holding up Nings arms, namely Five and Six, werent even able to let out a scream. Their grip over Shangguan Nings arms loosened immediately. In a matter of moments, two people had already lost their lives.
Royal Crown was famous for its luxury and high security. Small fights might ur if some of the guests had had too much to drink, but gunshots.. gunshots had never been fired here, ever before.
Who was it?
Who dared to carry a gun to the Royal Crown?
Everyone started to look around in panic, searching for the person responsible for this. It was only a whileter that they spotted him.
No one recognized the man in question. He wore a ck suit and had supposedly just entered the banquet hall. Behind him were more than twenty armed men, each of whom looked ruthless.
Even then, the manmanding them all was superior in every way. They were not a patch on him.
He was extremely good looking. His ck suit was tailor made to his measurements and showcased his muscr chest and strong biceps. Every woman there wished he would look her way, even if it was for a few seconds.
Since when did God start to make such perfect looking men? Why had nobody seen him before?
Was he the one who fired those shots?
Jing Yichen was oblivious to the fact that everyone was looking at him. He didnt waste his time looking at anybody else. His eyes only looked at Shangguan Ning. He went to her, right away.
Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief, at the sight of Jing Yichen. Only now did she realise that her knees hurt so much that they had be numb.
She was about to get up but because of staying on her knees for such a long time, she wasnt able to stand on her feet. She wobbled and then fell to the ground.
Jing Yichen took her up into his arms. He was really worried about her.
He said to her gently, Baby, just let me know if you ever feel like a red wine bath. I will take you to our vinery in France and you can do as you please. The red wine here is of a very inferior quality. It is only fit for the dogs to feed on. Come, let me show you how to keep the dogs under control.
Saying this, he pulled out a white handkerchief, intending to wipe away the red wine stains from Shangguan Nings face.
Seeing the handkerchief brought back unpleasant memories. Shangguan Ning thought of what Tang Yun had said to her about the handkerchief and she moved away from Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichens hands froze. He thought that Shangguan Ning had refused to let him wipe her face because she med him taking so long to get here.
He apologized to her softly, Sorry, my love that I waste. Lets get your face clean and then theres a show that Id like you to sit back and enjoy.
Shangguan Nings heart felt warm and secure when she heard his words. She didnt seem to care about Tang Yuns story of the handkerchief any more. She allowed him to clean her face as he touched it, with love.
Jing Yichen carried Shangguan Ning to a chair and helped her sit downfortably. Then he took off her wine-soaked overcoat and kept it to the side. He then took off his jacket and wrapped it over her shoulders before turning towards Ji Lili.
Ji Lili had never met Jing Yichen before, so she didnt know who he was. He had not only shot her men but also rescued Shangguan Ning. He had helped her clean up and talked to her in such a gentle manner. That made Ji Lili wild with jealousy.
When and how did that foxy Shangguan Ning manage to get hold of such an outstanding man? Could this man be her husband??
No way. Shagguan Ningcked the personality to be able to charm a guy like that. Ji Lili wanted him for herself.
She came to Jing Yichen and said in amanding voice, Dont you know me? I am Mayor Jis daughter. Get on your knees and apologize to me right away. I may forgive you. If you dare to offend me, I will have my mother drive you out of A City!
Before she could say anything further, something about the way Jing Yichen looked at her, made her shut up.
A chill ran through Ji Lilis body. She was about to say something again when unexpectedly, Jing Yichen kicked her off the stage.
Her body hit the ground like a sack of potatoes, with a loud muffled sound.
Had it not been the thick carpet on the ground, she would have been grievously injured.
The fall made Ji Lili feel as if someone had broken all of her bones, at once. She was in indescribable pain. She wanted to scream but she had lost her voice. She wanted to try and stand back up but the impact of the fall had been so fatal, that all she could do was lie on the floor and await her fate.

Lying on the carpet, Ji Lili felt dizzy and went on to spit out a mouthful of blood. She made a feeble attempt to get up but was unable to do so. She was no longer the arrogant person she showed off to be, a few minutes ago.
The bodyguards who were responsible for Ji Lilis protection, lunged at Jing Yichen, but before they were even able to touch the cor of Jing Yichens shirt, they were all done away with, by Yichens lot of bodyguards.
Jing Yichen looked at his team of men and yelled Fire!
No sooner had he given the order, than the deafening sound of gunshots being fired and ss breaking, filled the banquet hall. Everyone screamed in fright.
The gunshot sound onlysted for a few seconds. When it stopped, guests realized that nobody was hurt. They werent the intended target. Instead, the expensive chandeliers that hung overhead, were now just shards of ss, scattered across the ballroom floor.
The banquet hall was in pitch darkness. Soon, the emergency lights were turned on, illuminating the entire hall once again.
Everyone was huddled to the ground in fright, fearing for their lives. They hoped they werent next.
Some had even started to weep in fear whilst some bold ones had pulled out the cell phones, trying to summon some help.
The people trying to make calls were unable to do so. Cell phone reception had been blocked. They couldnt make and receive calls or messages.
Never in their wildest dreams had they expected the end of the entire episode to be life threatening.
As everyone became even more anxious and panicked, Jing Yichen directed, All of you, get your shoes off and stand on these shards of ss!
The audience was stupefied. They didnt move an inch. There was broken crystal everywhere. This wasnt a joke.
Even if someone was silly enough to follow Jing Yichens orders, broken crystal would pierce their feet. They would lose a lot of blood and the pain would be unbearable.
All this while, Jing Yichens men werent just waiting for further orders. They knew exactly what was expected of them. They threatened the crowd with violence, if they failed to remove their shoes and stand on the broken crystal pieces, with their bare feet.
People started to shiver and cry, out of fear.
Jing Yichen ignored all this. Instead, he said firmly Anyone who doesnt bleed, Lee Duo, please put a bullet into them.
Lee Duo, whose face was covered in blood after abat with Ji Lilis men, nodded in the affirmative to Jing Yichens orders.
He and his men inspected each one of the guests.
Whenever they came across someone who still had shoes on, they shot them in their calves. Painful screams filled the room. No one dared to y tricks any more.
Congrattions to you for enjoying the show sponsored by Ji Lili. You didnt have the courage to stand up for what was right. Now, its payback time. Down on your knees, all of you! One bullet for any knee that is not skinned!
Someone cursed at Jing Yichen, in frustration ,Who in the hell are you? Why must we kneel? Do you know who I am? Youd better let me go. My father is the Secretary of the City! You will suffer if anything were to happen to me!
The moment he finished his sentence, a bullet was shot into his knee, making him copse to the ground. He screamed in pain, and blood oozed out when his body made contact with the pieces of sharp ss.
Everyone around him was so frightened that they kneeled down with hands over their heads, not bothered about their knees anymore. Theyd rather live to see another day then dare to disobey this maniac.
When everyone was on their knees, Jing Yichen walked towards Huang Xinyi, who was already so frightened that she wouldnt stop crying. He said disdainfully, You need to be thankful that you have a family name of Huang or you wouldnt be alive to witness all this.
He then nodded at Tiger, who was already waiting for hismand. Break her arms and then push her off!
Within minutes Tiger broke both of Huang Xinyis arms. The pain made her scream, frightening everyone else who heard them.
Then, Huang Xinyi was pushed on to the broken crystal pieces, next to Ji Lili. Both of them were covered with blood.
Shangguan Ning felt no sympathy, seeing Huang Xinyi tormented. At the back of her mind though, she was still worried that if something happened to her, Uncle would be sad.
Jing Yichen gauged what Ning was worried about. He patted her hands and said softly. Dont worry, these are just superficial wounds. They hurt but they are not fatal. They willmit a crime like this again, if they arent taught a strict lesson now.
After heforted his wife, he went to Tang Yun and said to her, Didnt you hear what I said? Remove your shoes and kneel onto the broken pieces of ss.
Tang Yuns eyes widened in disbelief as she protested, What... what are you talking about?!
I dont want to repeat myself. Dont force me to put a bullet into your legs, TangYun!
Are you crazy?! I am Tang Yun, Yichen, dont you know? How can I kneel in front of Shangguan Ning, like the rest of these people. I refuse to.
Jing Yichen was in a terrible mood and was extremely furious at the moment. He had no patience to deal with Tang Yun. He was livid that Shangguan Ning was bullied by so many people and Huang Xinyi, Ji Lili and Tang Yun were responsible for it.
He held Tang Yun by her cor and dragged her to the floor. Then he gave her a violent push and she fell to the ground, her knees scraping against the sharp pieces of ss.
Tang Yun felt so much pain that she almost passed out. She was about to say something when Jing Yichen replied, as if he had already known what she wanted to say. What I owe to you has nothing to do with what you owe to her. She didnt ask you to settle the debt because of her love for me. So now I am asking for payback, for her sake. You should know that I have always been a ruthless man, and I am already being merciful enough to you!
He then turned away from Tang Yun and came to the table where a stack of red wine bottles were ced. He picked up two bottles.
Ji Lili squirmed in pain, seeing Jing Yichen walk towards her with the red wine.
My mother... is the Mayor! If you are smart... youd better... get out now...
Before she was able to finish what she had to say, Jing Yichen had smashed a bottle of red wine on her head.
With a thud, the red wine bottle broke against her skull. The red wine spilled onto Ji Lilis head, dripping down her cheeks, all the way to her body, mixing with blood from her wounds.
A bone chilling scream echoed through the banquet hall. Ji Lili felt as if her head had exploded. She was unable to think coherently.
Huang Xinyi who was beside her, passed out, out of fright, having witnessed Ji Lili go through this torture.
But Jing Yichen would not let her go this easily. He ordered Tiger to bring her back to her senses.
When Huang Xinyi opened her eyes, she was so scared to see that she was still in the banquet hall!
Seeing that she was awake, Jing Yichen smashed another bottle of wine upon her head without a moments hesitation.
Another thud. More blood. Even more screams, but Huang Xinyi met the same state as Ji Lili. Blood instantly gushed out of her head. Ji Lili was conscious but unable to move.
Huang Xinyi looked at Shangguan Ning, pleadingly. She implored her to rescue her, but Shangguan Ning just looked through her cousin. She refused to give Xinyi one more chance to redeem herself.

When everyone from the party had been proficiently handled, Jing Yiran was the only one who stood on his own feet, surrounded by Jing Yichens bevy of men.
Ordinary methods didnt work for Jing Yiran at all. He had been punched by Jing Yichen many times since he was little and yet he was unaffected. He was like a cockroach who could be beaten down, but not for long. He would continue to wreck havoc without a care in the world, thanks to the efficient medical team at the Family Jing House.
However, Jing Yichen didnt bother to get into a physical scuffle with Yiran this time around. He had thought of something better. Something that would cause Jing Yiran so much pain that being beaten to death would seem like the easier option.
Jing Yiran feigned indifference. He smiled mockingly when he looked at Jing Yichen. He usually did this to provoke Jing Yichen even further.
Although he was smiling on the face of things, the anxiety inside his heart grew by the minute.
Jing Yichen was not like himself today. Typically, he would get extremely furious at the treatment meted out to Shangguan Ning. He would then proceed to award Jing Yiran with a few well deserved punches, before finally letting him go. Today was different. Why did Jing Yichen let him off the hook, especially since he tormented the other three offenders to such a precarious level.
Jing Yiran was surprised and confused. Yet he refused to let this uncertainty show on his face.
Jing Yichen chose to look at therger picture. He knew the normal process of disagreements between his brother and himself. He would beat his brother to pulp, who would then go andin to their father. Jing Yiran would recover at home, under the watchful eye of medical experts. Two monthster, the same story would repeat itself, under the garb of another disagreement.
Jing Yichen just looked at Jing Yiran in the eye, and then turned and walked away. Jing Yiran wouldnt be a threat for sometime. He was a strong and capable man. Being beaten every now and then, didnt seem to make much of a difference to him. He needed to be cut away at, little by little, until there was nothing left at all.
Anyone who bullied his wife, must pay for it and pay for it heavily.
He would not forgive Huang Xinyi, whilst the main schemer Ji Lili would not be able to live in peace henceforth.
He turned around and said to Ji Lilis security guards who were already half-crippled, Let Ji Minyu know that if she wants Ji Lili to stay alive, she must step down from the Mayors post with immediate effect. Tell Ji Bo that he muste and apologize to my wife and as a token of his apology, ask him to bring with him 10 % shares of Family Jis Enterprise. Ji Lili will be released from the prison only when my wife decides to forgive her, otherwise she will spend the rest of her life in prison!
Almost all of the guests in the banquet hall knew about Jing Yiran. He was second in line to the heirship at the Family Jing Enterprise. He was famous for his affairs with various women and his casanova image. Surprisingly, no one knew of Jing Yichen, apart from Jing Yiran and Tang Yun. He was rtively unheard of, inparison to his younger brother. Even Ji Lili, who was the daughter of the Mayor, didnt know of him.
When everyone heard him addressing Mayor Ji by her name, they knew he meant business. He didnt even care about Ji Bo, who was one of the most powerful businessmen in A city. Jing Yichen decided the terms ofpensation. It was obvious that it was Jing Yichen who was calling the shots. Obviously, he must be more powerful than anybody in Family Ji.
Family Jis Enterprise had properties of over a 100 billion yuan, and 10% of them would be more than 10 billion yuan. That was not a small amount by any standard! Those who attended Ji Lilis birthday party were all from affluent families, but most of their families didnt have properties over 10 billion yuans. These were big numbers.
More importantly, who was this woman that was bullied by Ji Lili today? What was her identity? It sounded simply ridiculous that Family Jis Enterprise would pay her apensation of 10 billion yuan.
After Jing Yichen was done with avenging Shangguan Ning, he picked her up gently and carried her out of The Royal Crown. His men took Ji Lili directly to the police station, in line with Jing Yichens orders.They submitted evidence of Ji Lili being involved in a human trafficking and saw to it that she was put behind bars.
In their cozy, luxurious car, Jing Yichen put Shangguan Ning onto hisp and wiped her hair carefully with a new handkerchief.
Seeing her in this state hurt him so much.
How could she be so silly so as to endanger her own life for the sake of saving Huang Xinyi? Didnt she know that if she was ever hurt, he would suffer hundreds of times more than she did?
You mustnt put yourself in such a dangerous situation for someone elses sake, understand?
Jing Yichen hardly spoke in this tone with her. He was serious and cold. Shangguan Ning understood that he was really unhappy, so she nodded and answered with a soft yes.
No matter how hard she tried to be unaffected by Jing Yichens handkerchief, she was still ufortable.
Seeing her frown, Jing Yichen couldnt help but ask, What is it?
Hearing his question, Shangguan Ning thought for a while and told him what Tang Yun had said to her. Tang Yun said that you often cleaned her face with a white handkerchief,whenever she ended up with smears of paint on her face. I dont like it when you do the same to me, because she got you into this habit of carrying a handkerchief with you, always. It reminds me of her.
Jing Yichen was startled. He immediately asked, What does my habit of carrying a handkerchief have anything to do with her? When did I ever clean her face?!
He had never been in physical proximity with any woman. He had never wiped any womans face before Shangguan Ning. He was even politely courteous with Zhao Anan who was closer to him than all of his cousin sisters. What Shangguan Ning was suggesting, had never happened before.
What was more, because of his psychological issues, he hadnt been able to get intimate with anyone else apart from Ning. He would not tolerate it if someone were to even touch his clothes, leave alone cleaning someone elses face.
It seemed that Tang Yun had fed Shangguan Nings mind with a load of nonsense.
Ning, you must tell me everything Tang Yun told you and I will provide you with an exnation for all of it. It is important to do this because what she has said to you has made you question our rtionship. I dont want our love to be affected. I got her back to China because I wanted to give her a better life, not to make my own life worse. Now, let me tell you about the handkerchief.
Leaning against his strong chest, Shangguan Ning smiled.
The storm that had almost suffocated her at the banquet hall, had already passed. All was well now. What remained was the lovely scent of Jing Yichen and his voice, which was music to her ears.
Just being around him, made her feel extremely happy.
It is a tradition in Family Jing, to always have a handkerchief in ones pocket. Everyone, including my grandpa, my father and Jing Yiran have the handkerchief with them whenever they go out. That is a habit we have been taught since we were little. Some ancestor of Family Jing married a girl from the British Royal family. Her family members always had a handkerchief with them, when they stepped out. She carried forward this tradition by teaching her children the same. This tradition has been passed down from generations in Family Jing . Also, carrying a handkerchief has proved to be extremely handy. It is a part of our identity now, and also a good habit to have.
After hearing what Jing Yichen said, Shangguan Ning was pleasantly surprised to learn of their family tradition. No wonder the vis at the Family Jing House had such a strong British influence. Even the dcor was ssic and in shades of blue and wood, much like the preferences of the English. Now she knew where it all came from. Family Jing had an ancestor who was a British Royal.
So Tang Yun was lying to her! She had talked with such conviction that Shangguan Ning didnt even doubt her for a moment. Tang Yun spoke as if all the things she had said, had actually happened. Ning may have not brought up this matter, had Jing Yichen not asked her to rify today. After all, it was something in the past and she mustnt hold onto it.
She was d that she had cleared the air between herself and Jing Yichen, otherwise Tang Yun would be able to capitalise on themunication gap between the couple and cause a misunderstanding again.
Jing Yichen smiled seeing her expression change from annoyance to surprise. Then, he passed the handkerchief to her. Look carefully. Do you notice anything special about this handkerchief?

Shangguan Ning took the handkerchief and observed it carefully. She noticed that on this seemingly ordinary white handkerchief, there was concealed stripe, unique to Family Jing. On one corner of the handkerchief there was a series of seemingly insignificant numbers.
When Jing Yichen noticed that she looked slightly puzzled, wondering what the numbers meant, he exined patiently, Each of the handkerchiefs used by every male member of Family Jing differs from the other. This series of numbers is unique to me and represents the fact that I am the eldest son of Family Jing and the first heir of Family Jing, in this generation. I have never given this handkerchief to anyone else but you, nor did I ever use it to clean Tang Yuns face. This is part of the Jing identity. Even Jing Yiran, who has had numerous affairs, has never given his handkerchief to anybody else before.
Jing Yichen thought of how strained things were, between him and Jing Yiran, at the moment.
He was aware that the two brothers had never really gotten along very well, anyway, What upset him further was that this discord was something that shouldve stayed between both of them, and Shangguan Ning should not have been involved. She was innocent and had no business being dragged into this bad blood between the two brothers. But this was Jing Yiran. He never worked in ordance to principles. He didnt care if Shangguan Ning was innocent or not.
Therefore, Jing Yichen also adopted a smarter technique this time. Only he knew that Jing Yiran was due to receive a huge surprise! tonight!
Shangguan Ning felt the handkerchief. It was made out of the finest materials. She didnt notice that Jing Yichen was still fuming over Jing Yirans doings.
She suddenly remembered that when she first met Jing Yichen for a game of tennis, Jing Yichen had kindly given her his handkerchief to wipe her face. She didnt return it to him because she thought it would be gross to give him a napkin that had been stained by her sweat. She had thought she would wash it before returning it to him, so she stuffed it into her own purse!
It was only now that she learnt how important the handkerchief was, to Yichen.
She took his handkerchief without having known all of this. After they got married, she discovered that he had a wardrobe of white handkerchiefs, so she didnt think that the one that she had kept with her, was of any significance.
So, you gave me the handkerchief so casually before, but you already had your eyes on me, right?
Leaning in, in his arms, Shangguan Ning fiddled with the wine-stained handkerchief and asked Yichen, with mischief in her eyes.
Jing Yichen pulled her cheeks with love. I didnt know what I was thinking back then. I just felt that being with you made me feelfortable. It just felt right. Im not the kind of person who uses someone elses things, nor do I approve of someone else using my personal belongings C but when I met you, all of this didnt matter. It just felt different. Like we belonged together.
Shangguan Ning didnt have an inkling about Jing Yichens physical intimacy issues. She wasnt aware that he had never been intimate with anyone else, because of this. With her, Jing Yichen had been absolutely normal.
What she knew was that Jing Yichen did not believe in a public disys of affection. He did not believe in gestures that over over the top or cheesy lines that were full of mush. However, his concern and love for Shangguan Ning were true and she could feel it. The rest was not important.
She smiled sweetly and stole a nce at Tiger, who was driving the car. Even though he was in the drivers seat, and was extremely attentive, he did not once make them feel as if he was invading their privacy.
She quickly looked up and gave Jing Yichen a kiss, then she whispered. You liked me, didnt you? Why dont you admit it?
It wasnt often that Shangguan Ning was so openly affectionate. Jing Yichen was in a good mood too, and his smile broadened as he said softly. I told you, baby, I have always loved you.
Jing Yichen knew of his shorings. He knew that he wasnt expressive when it came to his emotions. Nor was he good at whispering sweet nothings. Therefore, he had been trying extra hard to show his true self to Shangguan Ning so that she knew that his love was true.
He had always thought earlier that he would never ever be able to love anyone unconditionally. He would never get to feel the emotions that they showed in romantic movies.Ironically when he himself was saying these words, they didnt feel fake or cheesy. In fact, they came to him organically.
He wanted to tell Shangguan Ning, how much he loved her.
When Shangguan Ning heard these three words, her heart skipped a beat. It was not until sometimeter, that she whispered shyly, I love you too!
Shangguan Ning also felt that she was simr to Jing Yichen when it came to professing her love for him. Now that she had said it, she felt only happiness in her heart.
They were so deeply in love with each other, even a simple I love you was more than thousands of mushy words. Every small act of love brought the two hearts closer than ever.
Jing Yichens heartbeat fastened as he bent over and kissed her on her lips.
Jing Yichen didnt kiss her as passionately as he usually did, because they were in the car. After he was done kissing her, he looked at Shangguan Ning and found her still wanting.
He chuckled, I will inundate you with kisses, when we get home!
Shangguan Ning was embarrassed. She just wasnt used to soft kissesing from him, but she didnt have the intention of continuing things in the car. Jing Yichen had just distorted the facts to his convenience and was making naughty jokes out of it. She pinched him hard on his arm.
She blushed shyly, all the way home.
After they got home, Shangguan Ning immediately went to the bathroom to have a warm, cozy shower. Finally, her body was free of the smell of wine.
Jing Yichen took a shower as well. He had wanted to shower with Shangguan Ning, but she rejected his suggestion, straight out. So he had no choice but to shower alone, in the other bathroom. Right now, he hated it that his apartment was equipped with two bathrooms. The second bathroom waspletely unnecessary.
After showering, he was finally able to carry Shanguan Ning in his arms, without a care in the world. She smelt very nice after the shower. Her body had a scent that was irresistible.
Shangguan Ning held his hand, as he groped her body and asked him,Do you think you overdid it at the party?
Although she knew that Jing Yichen was extremely capable and powerful, she was still worried. He had tormented so many people this evening, that she prayed that it wouldnt alle back to him in some way. She was anxious because she knew that they all would now be seeking revenge.
Jing Yichen smiled. Then he said to her in a seductive voice. Your husband can handle all the problems thate his way. No matter how big the problem is. Im sorry that you were in such a helpless position today. Im d I decided to bring Lee Duo along. Incase any lives are lost inbat, handling the matter is my responsibility. Anyway, no one would dare to utter a word.
Hmm...
How do you n to reward your husband?
Isnt that something that you should do? Why are you asking for a reward now?
Alright, it is fine if you dont reward me. Then you should settle the debt that you owe me, for the past two nights and then we shall call its quits. As for the reward for today, we will discuss itter...
...
Jing Yichen and Ning spent the night in each others arms. The morning was unusually beautiful.
When Shangguan Ning woke up, she noticed that Jing Yichen had already woken up. He wasnt in bed anymore.
Jing Yichen was always an early riser, but today he had woken up even earlier because he had to bid goodbye to someone. Before Shangguan Ning had even opened her eyes, he was already at the airport.
It was a bright and sunny morning. Everything looked beautiful, bathed in sunlight.
At the airport though, Tang Yun was creating a scene. She was crying loudly and making a huge fuss, at the VIP lounge. Everyone in the room was already fed up of her tantrums.
The rest of the passengers had already boarded the ne whilst Tang Yun refused to get on it. Lee Yong and his men, who were responsible for her protection, couldnt force her beyond a point. They felt helpless so they had no choice but to call Jing Yichen.
Get Yichen here! I am absolutely not leaving like this! He was the one who convinced me toe back and now he wants me gone? That is impossible! You must have been bribed by Shangguan Ning. She is the one who wants me gone. I am not boarding this flight and theres nothing you can do about it.
Chapter 140 - Driven Away (Part Two)
Chapter 140: Driven Away (Part Two)
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Tang Yun cried and screamed, and refused to board the flight.
She was extremely anxious. She feared that Jing Yichen really would send her back to the USA.
She didnt want to go back. It had taken her ages toe back to China and she hadnt even begun to work on her n. She wanted Jing Yichen all to herself and she was nowhere close to achieving her goal. She mustnt leave like this.
She knew that if she stood her ground, there was nothing they could do. They wouldnt dare to pick her up and toss her into the ne, could they?
As long as Jing Yichen was here, she would have to find a way of staying in the city. She didnt believe that he could be so ruthless so as to let her leave by herself, without caring about what they had shared in the past.
Jing Yichen arrived at the airport soon, but he hadnte alone. Beside him, was a drowsy, handsome, young man who was still rubbing his eyes.
It was Mu Qing, who was forced to apany Jing Yichen, this early in the morning.
He rubbed his eyes as he mumbled unhappily. Honestly, Master Jing, what are we doing here, at the airport, so early in the morning? Do you want me to check on a patient here? Let me tell you, I am good at medicine, but I cant cure mental issues. Youd better send the patient to a mental care facility, as soon as possible.
When Jing Yichen was on a call in the car, Mu Qing could hear a woman screaming loudly on the other end of the phone. She sounded annoying. This woman seemed to be extremely irritating and Mu Qing wished to have nothing to do with the likes of her.
You dont need to cure her. Jing Yichen exined, as they walked towards VIP lounge. You only need to ensure that she loses consciousness for a short while. Ill handle the rest.
That is easy! Mu Qing said, d that he did not have to deal with the woman in question.
As they entered the VIP lounge, Tang Yun ran towards Jing Yichen, her arms outstretched.
Jing Yichen frowned and swiftly dodged her hug.
Tang Yun ended up bumping into Mu Qing instead.
Both of them screamed at the same time. Mu Qing screamed because he felt that he had been taken advantage of, by this deranged woman, whilst Tang Yun screamed because she was stung by a row of silver needles, that were concealed in Mu Qings palms. She cried out in pain.
This was the first time that Tang Yun was meeting Mu Qing. She didnt think that he was someone important considering the fact that he looked so messy and unkempt. She shouted at him, Are you blind? Cant you see that you have wounded me. Are you crazy? What sort of person carries needles around, in their hand, in this manner? Who do you think you are? A doctor? How stupid of you.
Mu Qing was no match for Jing Yichen. In fact, he was second only to Jing Yichen, in every aspect. He was extremely smart, handsome and one of the most sought after medical experts in A city.
As soon as he saw Tang Yun, and then the expression on Jing Yichens face, he understood instantly that this woman was the patient he was supposed to manage today.
As he apologized to Tang Yun, multiple times, he covertly pierced another needle on the back of her hand. She was distracted and paid no attention.
He had been practicing acupuncture for more than a year now and he was getting really good at it. His actions were fast and urate. A few secondster, Tang Yun copsed onto the ground.
Only now did he stop apologising. He rubbed his nose and said with a smile, You are too ignorant and too arrogant. I am a doctor indeed and now is the time for me to show you how skilled I am at my job! Mu Qing said, as he pierced two more needles into Tang Yuns neck. Tang Yun mumbled ufortably.
Although Jing Yichen wanted to send Tang Yun away, he hadnt nned on making her suffer.
He had brought Tang Yun back to China only because he wanted to protect her. She was not an easy person to be around. Even now, she had been impolite to Mu Qing, but Mu Qing had no choice but to tolerate her for Jing Yichens sake.
Mu Qing, remove the needles.
As soon as Jing Yichen gave the order, Mu Qing removed the needles.
Tang Yun regained consciousness but she was still low on energy. There was no pain as such but she was unable to get up.
She was in tears. Yichen, make this man cure me please! I cant move, Im petrified
Jing Yichen gestured to Lee Yong and his men, so that they could help Tang Yun to sit up on the sofa. He said. Mu Qing is an excellent doctor, and you dont need to be worried at all. You are in safe hands.You will be fast asleep, within a short period of time, and when you get back to the USA, you would have recoveredpletely, after getting all the rest.
Tang Yun screamed aloud, I am not going back! You understand? You cant make me go back! You got me here from the USA. How can you send me back again? I want to stay in A City and marry you! Shangguan Ning isnt the right one for you, I am. Have you forgotten that I saved your life, and I asked for nothing in return, other than your well-being, even at the cost of my own life!
Tears trickled down her cheeks.
I almost forgot who I was, in the past few years, but I have never forgotten you, Yichen. I cant live without you! How could you be so cruel that you would drive me away? If that is what you always wanted, then why did you get me back to China, in the first ce? Wouldnt it have made sense to just let me stay where I was?
Yichen, I am sorry that I have caused you so much trouble. I will not pick on Shangguan Ning any more. I will be a good friend to her, and thats a promise. Please, dont drive me away! I dont want to live a life without you. I just want to be with you! It is okay if you dont want me to touch you. Its alright if you dont want to be with me. All I want is to be able to be around you. To be able to see you. Even if it means watching you from a distance. Yichen, please let me stay! I will listen to andply with, all your orders.
Standing in the shadow area of a dim light, Jing Yichens expressions were a blur for Tang Yun to decipher.
Mu Qing was right there and had listened to everything that Tang Yun had to say. He looked at Yichen, wondering what he would decide on.
This woman in front of him, who addressed Jing Yichen as Yichen, must be Tang Yun.
He had never met Tang Yun, nor had he heard Jing Yichen ever mention her.
He had never mentioned the past to anybody. Nobody knew what had happened that had made Jing Yichen so furious that the entire city the brunt of Jing Yichens wrath.
Mu Qing had heard something on those lines, from Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing knew only the synopsis of the entire incident that happened, all those years ago. That was because Zheng Jings father was the former Director of Public Security of A City. But he didnt disclose too much either. Every time he would start to provide a few details but would refrain from saying anything more about the topic.
Mu Qing had once thought that Jing Yichen was deeply in love with Tang Yun, but Zheng Jing disagreed. He always said that Jing Yichen was only concerned about Tang Yun, but that did not mean that he loved her. Jing Yichen had never been in love and he did not believe in wasting his time pursuing someone.
When he met Tang Yun today, Mu Qing started to believe Zheng Jings version of the story.
It was obvious that Jing Yichen was tolerating Tang Yun. It had to be on ount of a particr reason. Had it been anyone other woman, Jing Yichen wouldve simply not bothered, no matter how charming and persistent the woman was.
It was definitely not love.

Chapter 141: The Outraged Ji Bo

In the VIP lounge, Tang Yuns sobs were clearly audible.
Sometimes she was very dominating and bossy and wanted to have Jing Yichen all to herself, and sometimes she yed the victim, pleading and innocent, painting a sorry picture of herself in front of Jing Yichen.
By the time she was done parading both sides of her personality, Jing Yichen had lost his calm as well.
Everyone knew that once Jing Yichen made up his mind about something, he would not change it. He was definitely going to send Tang Yun away.
Jing Yiran was already very difficult to deal with, what with Jing Zhongxiu and the grandparents protecting him all the time. Their mollycoddling had made his impudent actions more rampant than ever.
He would see to it that Tang Yun and Shangguan Ning werent in the same city. It would put Ning into an even more vulnerable position because Tang Yun would stop at nothing to get what she wanted.
Jing Yiran and Tang Yun were both vicious and conniving people. If they were to ever join forces, the consequences would be catastrophic.
He couldnt even bring himself to be churlish with Tang Yun. She had saved his life. Had it not been for her, he would have been tormented ruthlessly and in all likelihood, even ended up losing his life, all those years ago.
Tang Yun was only seventeen years old then, but she protected him by putting her in front of him, shielding him from those malicious killers.
He would always remember her slender frame and her fearless voice at that moment.
In those terrible days of their past, it was this very silhouette and this very voice that brought him warmth andfort. She had been the only gleam of sunlight in his dark life.
When the bullet pierced through her tender chest instead of his, he was astounded. She had fallen into a swollen river that flowed beneath the bridge, on which they stood. The angry waves swallowed her body within moments, and Jing Yichen copsed to the ground, out of shock.
Since then, he had looked for her in vain. He wouldnt stop until he saw her dead body. He needed closure. Ten yearster, when he was finally able to find Tang Yun, he couldnt believe that she was alive. He wanted to protect her for the rest of his life.
That is why he had no hesitation in bringing her back to China.
That was also why he would tolerate whatever Tang Yun did to him, or said to him and would never go against her wishes.
She had yed tricks on him, thrown tantrums, schemed and plotted against him C basically caused him a lot of trouble, but he had turned a blind eye to all of them. He also tolerated her misbehaviour when she went around spreading the rumor that she was his fiance. In reaction to that, all he had done was requested her to stop. He hadnt even raised his voice.
There was only one thing he couldnt tolerate C and that was causing any kind of harm to Shangguan Ning C and that is exactly what Tang Yun had done.
He was not going to let go of anybody who had ever dared to hurt Shangguan Ning.
Tang Yun may have been a gleam of hope and sunlight in his life in the past, but Shangguan Ning was the sun of his entire life. She changed his life from a dull grey to one that was full of colours and love.
Shangguan Ning was the only woman he loved in his life. She shouldnt be the one to settle the debt he owed to Tang Yun.
Sending Tang Yun abroad, was the only way out, at the moment.
He was still going to send his convoy of men to protect her and to make sure that she would live without worries. William, her old American boyfriend, was a gambler. Although he was a member of the American Mafia, he treated Tang Yun nicely. Tang Yun also had feelings towards him, and he would make sure that the couple would never have to worry about not having enough money, in their entire lives.
He had never promised Tang Yun a marriage. He thought that he had made that very clear.
Since talking and exining didnt work, he had to use force.
You must go back to the USA today, and you are not allowed to return without my permission. Lee Yong and his team will follow you all the time and keep me updated with everything. If there is anything you need, tell them and it shall be provided to you.
After Jing Yichen finished saying what he had to say, he left VIP lounge with Mu Qing, without waiting to hear anything more of what Tang Yun wished to say.
When Tang Yun saw him behave in this way, her eyes were full of hatred. She said fiercely, Jing Yichen! You have forced me to do this but remember that If I cant get what I want, no one else can either!
No matter how much she cried or fussed, Lee Yong and his team forced her to apany them and board the flight.
Jing Yichen dropped Mu Qing off at the hospital and returned to Landscape Compound. street.
He had juste out of the elevator on his floor, when Tiger came up to him and said. Master Jing, Master Ji is here to see you.
Master Ji meant Ji Bo.
Jing Yichen pulled out the house keys, opened the door and instructed Tiger, Just tell them that the Lady was very frightened and upsetst evening, so we are not upto meeting anyone.
Tiger nodded and walked out.
At the gate of Landscape Compound, Ji Bo was sitting in a ck Porsche. He was dressed in a dark grey suit, a white shirt and a light cyan tie. His hair was neat and his arms that held onto the steering wheel, were muscr. He looked suave and charming.
On the face of it, everything looked alright, but a closer look would reveal hints of tiredness and exhaustion on his handsome face. His eyebrows were narrowed and he looked stressed.
Even though he was abroad, he flew back overnight, just for the sake of his cousin Ji Lili.
Ji Lili had caused a lot of trouble for the entire family, since she was little. It had always been Ji Bo who had helped to smoothen out all those matters. Just like now.
When the family got to know that she was thrown into prison by the police, because of Jing Yichen, grandma was extremely furious and aunt Ji Minyu had suffered a sudden heart attack. The atmosphere at home was extremely tense and as soon as Ji Bo got home, he was ordered to meet with Jing Yichen and bring Ji Lili back home at the earliest.
In Ji Bos opinion, it would be best if Ji Lili would spend some more days in prison! The world would be a wonderful ce without the likes of her.
Unfortunately, he was not only expected to bail her out, but also lose many shares of Family Ji Enterprise, in the process.
He wasnt on great terms with Ji Yichen. Ji Bo had been trapped by him many times in the past. He still chose toe here anyway.
But the moment he heard what Tiger had to say, his mood turned sour.
Only Jing Yichen, in all of A City, had the courage to not give a damn about Ji Bo.
Jing Yichen was way too conceited!
Ji Bo got back home, in a fit of anger. His grandmother and aunt came up to him and asked him expectantly,Where is Lili?How is she?
Ji Bo was extremely exhausted, but he still replied patiently. If you resign from your post of the citys mayor, Aunt, Jing Yichen would definitely allow you to meet Lili. If you want Cousin Lili back home, The Family Ji Enterprise would need to bear a huge financial loss. Im not sure if Im ready to do that just yet.
Ji Enterprises was in directpetition with Jing Enterprises. Ji Bo and Jing Yichen were business rivals. Ji Bo understood Jing Yichen very well. No matter how Jing Yichen went about doing it, in the end, he would always seed.
Just like the buyout of Star Media a year ago. The odds had been stacked against him, in the beginning. Only Jing Yichen had been able to miraculously turn that sale around into a huge profit making venture for Jing Enterprise.
Lady Ji and Ji Minyu not only looked like each other, but also had the same temperament. The moment they heard what Ji Bo said, they started to get worked up.
Ji Bo didnt try to persuade them, allowing them to vent and scream like two women who clearly didnt know better.
While they were wasting precious time, Ji Lili was the one who suffered in prison. Ji Bo had hoped that Ji Lili would face a few hardships in prison, so that she could learn the lesson that she would never forget.
She had offended Jing Yichen by ridiculing his wife in public. She had even forced her to kneel down in front of so many people. That was equivalent to losing face. Family Jing was bound to react in this way.
Family Ji was going to lose a great deal of money this time. This goddamned Ji Lili! He had spent so many years working hard to earn this money and all of it was wasted inpensating for her senseless mistakes.

Within the next two days, Ji Minyu announced her resignation from the post of the Mayor of A City. The promotional transfer, that was due toe through for her, was put on hold indefinitely.
Her actions caused a furore in A City. She would have finished her term in a couple of days time anyway. She would then have left A City with honor intact and her head held high. Instead, she ended up resigning.
Most people didnt know what happened, and those who did, were even more astonished.
The man who created chaos that night, was able to force Ji Minyu into resignation!?
What tremendous power!
What was more, there was a rumor that was going strong in the market, that Family Jis Enterprise had lost out on millions of yuan worth of shares, because they had to give them away aspensation for the damage caused by Ji Lili. Due to this, their business reputation was affected and their share prices started to plummet.
Jingsheng Enterprise, on the other hand, was moving from strength to strength.
In addition, the Mayors daughter Ji Lili, who used to be socially active, suddenly disappeared out of the public eye. No one had seen her in such a long time.
However, one more person decided to cut off from the limelight around the same time. It was none other than Jing Yiran, the most handsome casanova in A City.
Sitting in a dimly-lit office, Jing Yiran received constant business updates from his men. As more and more messages reached him, his handsome face started to look stressed .
Second Master, we have lost more than 200 brothers inbat. Our spot in the northern district has been discovered and Zheng Jing and his team have taken them all to the Police Station.
Second Master, some small groups rebelled today. They have joined the Dragon Head Association and passed on a lot of our internal trade secrets. The losses are tremendous.
Second Master, three of ourpanies have gone bankrupt, and two have been bought out by Elder Master. Royal Crown has lost a great deal of money because of the incident several days ago and we will not be able to pay our staff any more. Should we fire some employees first? And the embellishments on the third floor will take three more days.
The luxurious and famous restaurant Royal Crown in A City, belonged to Jing Yiran. He had kept this fact well concealed. Nobody knew that the Royal Crown, which earned so much revenue every single day, would belong to the Second Master of Family Jing. They always thought that all Jing Yiran did was wile away his time, chasing women.
Jing Yirans face sunk. After thinking for a while, he nodded. Fire half of the employees first. As for the embellishments, make sure that that the new look of the restaurant and the banquet hall is far more luxurious than its former version. No trace of the fight should be visible anywhere.
Thanks to Jing Yichen and his men who shot at people and tortured them unscrupulously, at The Royal Crown, the hotel had lost a lot of its repute. People swore never to go there again. They were scared for their lives.
Royal Crown had a lot of security. Staff and cameras guarded this ce, all day, everyday. Despite all this, Jing Yichen was able to destroy this ce and bring its reputation to dirt.
He suspected that Jing Yichen was aware that Royal Crown belonged to Jing Yiran, so he had gone out of his way to destroy itpletely.
Within a few days time, Jing Yiran had lost much more than he could imagine. If things continued to go on like this, the power and good will that he had cultivated with so much effort, would bepletely wiped out.
Jing Yiran was taking count of the losses in helpless fury, when his cell-phone rang.
During the past few days, whenever his cell-phone rang, nothing good hade out of it. So whenever he heard it ring, he would be annoyed.
He picked up the cell-phone and asked impatiently, What is it?
A gentle and anxious voice of a woman spoke from the other side of the phone. Ran,e home now. A woman hase home. She is pregnant. She says you are the father!
Jing Yiran banged the table in frustration, frightening the staff around him. They werent sure what made him lose his temper.
What did you say?!
He was the father? It was impossible!
Impossible that I am the father of the child. Throw her out, now! Jing Yiran said unflinchingly.
But Zhang Rong on the other side of the phone, didnt think that was a smart thing to do, in the current circumstances. Ran, you havent even taken a look at her. How can you say that the baby isnt yours? What if it is? This is the offspring of the Jing Family. When the baby is born, your grandparents will be so happy. Maybe even father would pay more attention to you. This is our chance.
Jing Yiran said in an unpleasant tone, I said that I am not the father! Why do I need to have a look at her? I wont take a bastard as my child, just to please someone else!
Ran, juste back and have a look. Even if you think that the baby is not yours, you will still have to convince me! Or I will let her stay. You dont have a girlfriend anyway, and this girl looks quite good too. She says that shees from a good family. She might be able to help you in the future. If she matches your expectations, you could even marry her!
Jing Yiran got so annoyed by Zhang Rong that the vein in his forehead looked as if they were going to pop out. His teeth were clenched. Fine! I wille home now. I will make her understand the consequences that she has to bear, if she makes up such lies! Also, at the risk of repeating myself for the hundredth time, I will be the one to decide to whom I get married and when, so stop pleading with me.
He disconnected the line angrily. He quickly briefed his staff to fill up for him for the next few hours and left for the Jing vi immediately. He felt suffocated. As if his entire empire was on the verge of crumbling, all at once.
As soon as he arrived home, he spotted a charming, long haired woman, sitting in the living room. The woman stood up instantly at the sight of him and said happily. Where have you been, Yiran? I feel so relieved to have finally met with you again!
The woman was slender and wore a red dress. When she was standing here, two things were obvious. Her hot figure and a slightly protruded belly. Apparently, she was pregnant and the baby was his.
Jing Yiran had a blurry memory of her. The thing is that he had been with too many women in the past, to remember who she was. He said indifferently, Get out of here right now, or your dead body will leave this house. Oh.. make that two dead bodies. Yours and your babys.
The womans face turned pale. She tried to hide behind Zhang Rong and said in a sad voice, Aunt, look at Yiran, he is so unfriendly. That is why I never came to see him earlier, even though I have been pregnant for four months. I was so scared because I knew that this is how he would behave. He is the father of my baby. He shouldnt disown the baby just because he doesnt like me.
Zhang Rong had always hoped that Jing Yiran would be a father before Jing Yichen did. Now that her wish was finallying true, she wasnt going to let go of it so easily.
She came to the womans aid instantly and consoled her gently,Dont be afraid, Chudan, I am here. As long as Yiran is the father, I will definitely make sure that you and the baby are well and fine. He doesnt make the decisions here.
Zhang Rong was still talking, when Grandma Mo Lan walked in. She said anxiously, Well, I heard that a girl is pregnant with Rans baby? Where is she? Let me take a good look at her!
Chudan stepped forward instantly and looked up at the olddy. Hello, Grandma. I am pregnant with Yirans child, but... but he said...
Chapter 143 - Jing Yiran’s Baby? (Part Two)
Chapter 143: Jing Yirans Baby? (Part Two)
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yiran did have a lot of affairs, but this woman had been the first one to turn up at his door, that too pregnant.
Other women who came to his house, looking for him orining about him, were all politely asked to leave. This one was different. She was pregnant. Even Grandma Mo Lan was surprised.
She came to Chudan and said with a smile, Good girl,e and sit down. If you really are pregnant with Yirans baby, you are definitely going to give birth to the child. It doesnt matter if the child was conceived identally. Jing Yiran doesnt get to decide, so what you need to do is to keep the baby well.
Even though Mo Lan had said so, she was notpletely sure that the baby was her grandsons. This girl in front of them was trying to act all coy, but apparently she was quite foxy and had had numerous affairs herself. No one could say for sure that the baby belonged to the Jing family.
Jing Yiran watched the two women of the Family arrive at a decision, without even consulting with him.
If this woman was indeed pregnant with his baby, they two were definitely going to ensure that the baby was born.
He felt angry and sad, at the same time.
Luckily, he had always been very cautious in this regard. No matter how much he was tempted and how much he lusted over a particr woman, he would always use protection.
He knew the consequences of his actions, if he ever got casual about this. He didnt want to bring a bastard child into this world. His love child would lead the same life that he had led. His childs identity would bring shame to the family, like he had. Jing Yiran too, was a love child.
It was true that Jing Yiran was the second heir of Family Jing, but there was no denying the fact that he was a love child. If Jing Yichens mother Zhao Qing hadnt passed away, then his mother Zhang Rong would never have been able to move into this vi, and he would have lived his entire life as Zhao Qings biological son, rather than admit publicly that his father, Jing Zhongxiu, had had a child out of wedlock.
His birth was an ident, one that was the product of his mother Zhang Rongs scheme, which she brought into effect by drugging his father Jing Zhongxiu.
It had also been because of Grandma Mo Lan, who had stopped Jing Zhongxiu from forcing Zhang Rong abort the child. That is how he came into this world.
Zhao Qing was aghast that Mo Lan would ever suggest such a thing, that too while Jing Zhongxiu was still married to her. She had a huge row with Jing Zhongxiu. She left the house in a fit of anger and died in a car ident because she lost control of the vehicle, on ount of her emotions.
Zhang Rong eventually married Jing Zhongxiu when she was pregnant, and gave birth to Jing Yiran one month after the wedding.
This was why Jing Yichen had always hated Jing Zhongxiu, Mo Lan, Zhang Rong and Jing Yiran, ever since he started to understand the difference between right and wrong. He understood that had it not been for the insensitivity of these people, his mother would still be alive.
When Jing Yiran was younger and a very naive, he thought that he had the same status as Jing Yichen, but he didnt understand why his father favored Jing Yichen more. Father would teach Jing Yichen everything, including the operational affairs and key financial matters of the enterprise, yet Jing Zhongxiu would never do the same with Jing Yiran. Therefore, Jing Yiran had always grudged Jing Yichen and kept picking on him.
Jing Yichen had never taken to Jing Yiran. All they needed to do was share a roof. As long as they were under the same roof, it was only a matter of time before either of them picked a fight with the other.
Jing Yiran was younger and less experienced, so he wasnt a match for Jing Yichen, who was three years older than Jing Yiran. Every time Jing Yiran got injured on ount of Yichen, he wouldin to Mo Lan who would scold Jing Yichen, irrespective of whose fault it was.
When he became older, Jing Yiran finally understood his real background. He understood the reason for which he was treated the way he was. He was, after all, a love child.
He was different from Jing Yichen in every single way. He wasnt qualified enough to take over the Enterprise and its affairs. He hadnt earned the right to be favored by Jing Zhongxiu. In the initial days, he hadnt even earned the right to get the customary white silk handkerchief that represented the identity of Family Jing. He recollected that in his childhood, even the staff of the house, treated him differentlypared to the love and respect they gave Jing Yichen.
He hated his life so much that he wished that his child would be nothing like him. He wished that his child would not have to carry the heavy cross of the mistakes made by its parents.
Therefore, whatever the case was, even if this woman was pregnant with his baby, he would never allow this child to be born.
Jing Yiran smiled deviously. Finally, something of consequence urred to him.
Grandma, mom, I dont know this woman at all. The baby in her belly is definitely not mine. But since you believe her so much, what do you think about getting a DNA test at the hospital right now?
Technology had made huge progress in thest few decades and it was now possible to get a DNA test done while a child was still in the womb of its mother. A little amniotic fluid was removed from the womb, and this wouldter be used to further tests to determine the DNA of the child. State of the art technology would be used and would ensure urate results along with the safety of the mother and child.
Chudan said that she was pregnant for four months. It seemed like the right time to go in for a DNA test.
This test was often performed around the 16th week of pregnancy, when the foetus was not fully developed but there was no risk of a miscarriage. There was a lot of amniotic fluid in the womb and only a small quantity would be required for this test to be conducted. This would not affect the pregnancy in any way. It was a totally harmless procedure.
Both Mo Lan and Zhang Rong had thought of this idea as well, so they agreed instantly, hearing Jing Yirans suggestion. They both thought that the test wouldnt do any harm to the child and it would be enough proof to know for sure if the child was Jing Yirans or not. The pregnant womans storycked conviction anyway.
Jing Yiran noticed that not only these two women but even Chudan seemed to approve of this method. She didnt show any sign of panic as if she was totally certain that the baby was indeed his.
Jing Yiran smirked to himself. It didnt matter who the father of this child was, as long as he could somehow convince these three women to apany him to the hospital. He would then get them to decide if Chudan needed a DNA test or an abortion.
This woman, Chudan, looked charming and cunning. She wasnt the usual damsel in distress. She clearly didnt believe in doing things the conventional way when she turned up at his residence with a pregnant belly.
Jing Yiran had no idea of whaty in store for him at the hospital, whilst he was busy making other ns on the sly.
It was the weekend today and it was one of those rare times when Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning decided to take it easy and rest at home. Jing Yichen was cooking dinner for them.
She had been sick several times, since they had gotten to know each other. Each time she had been hospitalised, her condition had been worse than the previous time. As a result, she had lost a lot of weight and looked a lot thinner than before.
Jing Yichen asked the chef to prepare various nutritious dishes for her, so that she became gained some weight.
Also, Shangguan Ning had be quite particr about the food she ate. She had always been fond of the shrimp Jing Yichen made for her, so they went to the supermarket, bought the ingredients and Jing Yichen prepared the dish for her once again.
After lunch, Shangguan Ning was watching TV while lying down on the sofa, but soon she fell asleep.
Jing Yichen carried her carefully and ced her on their bed in the bedroom. He covered her with a nket and then kissed her forehead with love. He couldnt help smiling, watching her sleep so peacefully.
He walked out of the bedroom quietly, and walked into the study where Tiger was already waiting for him.
How is it going? Jing Yichens voice was calm and devoid of any emotion.

Tiger knew what Jing Yichen was referring to, so he provided him with an update instantly. Second Master has had to experience tremendous losses. It will take him at least five years to undo those losses.Seven of hispanies are filing for bankruptcy as we speak.
Jing Yichen nodded and said. What about that matter that needed to be handled at home?
Hearing the question, Tiger smiled and said, Just as you had predicted, they are going to the hospital for a DNA test now.
He admired Jing Yichen a lot and held him in high regard. He had outwitted Jing Yiran by pre-empting all of Jing Yirans moves. The entire n was going ording to the book. His Master was so smart.
Okay. Get the doctors ready and please ask them to maintain theirposure. As for that woman, pay her onpletion of the mission and send her abroad to the country of her choice,under a different identity, just as she had requested.
Jing Yichens men hade across Chudan at a nightclub. Her real identity was kept hidden and a fake identity was made, with credible references of course, should someone feel the need to cross check.The entire story was well thought out, before her visit to the Family Jing House. She had many boyfriends and had no idea who the father of her baby was. She had nned to abort the baby but it turned out that someone was willing to pay her a great deal of money and send her abroad under a new identity, provided she helped them in return. So she was more than happy to ept the task.
She already knew the risks of taking up an assignment like that. Lying to the Second Master of Family Jing could be injurious to her life,yet she had nothing to lose and was fed up with her life at present. It was a demeaning one,where she was looked down upon, and she wanted to leave the city as soon as possible. Onpletion of this task, she was not only getting a huge sum of money, she was also getting a chance to start afresh, abroad.
Therefore, she was extremely invested in the task at hand and acted with such conviction and confidence that she could put real actresses to shame.
They entered an ordinary looking hospital in A City, and Jing Yirans entry generated quite a furore.
His handsome face and his charming mannerisms made women go weak in the knees. He was so attractive, that it was almost impossible for most women to not lust after him, as soon as they saw him. Everyone knew how influential he was, so they tried their best to get in his good books.
If Jing Yiran had not been so tired and exhausted, thanks to Jing Yichens persistent torture, he would have definitely whistled at a few hot looking nurses at the hospital. To add to his stress, now there was this woman who imed to be carrying his child. On any other day, he wouldve had no problem convincing one of the nurses to spend the night with him. This was business as usual, for Jing Yiran, but not today.
Unfortunately, he was not in a mood for all that right now. All he wanted to do was to get the woman to abort the baby and get back to handling the real deal C the issues he had been facing with his businesses.
Even a minor dy could cost him millions, and at this rate, he would soon be bankrupt. The situation had gotten from bad to worse. He was bleeding money and there was nothing he could do to stop it. It was a matter of time before he lost the ability to fight against Jing Yichen.
The hospital they had visited was old and run down. Due to this, even the equipment was not state of the art. Grandma Mo Lan was extremely upset with his choice.
Isnt Family Mus Hospital the best in the city? Even if you dont approve of it, we could have still gone to City Hospital, or the X University Hospital, where the doctors are far more skillful. And those doctors are our family friends. We know of their capabilities and they know of us. Why did you pick this one instead? Look at the environment! What if the doctors are unprofessional and hurt the baby?
The olddy kept nagging and scolding Jing YIran. Zhang Rong was also in agreement with her. She sat on the bench of the hospital, frowning, whilst they waited their turn. She was Jing Zhongxius wife and she was used to nothing less than the best, at all the time. She had never been to this kind of a crowded and generic hospital.
She regretted apanying them to this hospital, but she was afraid that when the DNA results were out, Jing Yiran would lie to her iming that the baby wasnt his. She had to wait this out alone.
Jing Yiran ignored them. He called his team and asked them to bribe the doctors so that they could perform an abortion on Chudan, as soon as possible.
He was certainly not going to Family Mus Hospital and any of the other famous hospitals C he would definitely be unable to bribe the doctors there and specially when everyone there treated his grandma like she was some kind of Goddess.
He was not here to get a DNA test one. Anyway, the procedure of performing an abortion would not differ, from one hospital to another.
It was finally their turn after waiting for a quarter of an hour.
Soon the results were ready. When Chudan was wheeled out of the private room, Mo Lan and Zhang Rong asked about her, anxiously. When they were updated with the details,they almost passed out, out of sheer stress.
The baby had been aborted by the doctor, in ordance to Jing Yirans orders and that in ordance to the DNA results, Jing Yiran was the babys father!
That is impossible! Jing Yiran banged the table with his fist.
How did they expect him to not know whether the baby was his or not?
Could this doctor be an unskilled one to have made a mistake or was there some other reason...?
He had been tormented by Jing Yichen too many times recently, and even now he suspected that Jing Yichen was the mind behind all of the recent upheavals in his life.
When Jing Yiran thought about this, he suddenly surveyed the doctor who looked professional and honest.
The doctor lifted his ck-frame sses and smiled at him, unexpectedly.
Mo Lan and Zhang Rong were both extremely annoyed. They scolded Jing Yiran for deciding on everything, without even checking with them.They now understood that they were lured toe to this hospital so that Jing Yiran could have the baby aborted.
Seeing the two seniors so upset, the doctor consoled them. Honestly speaking, it is a good thing that the baby was aborted.
The two women were shocked at these words. They stared at the doctor in disbelief. Jing Yiran, though, was slightly relieved.He thought that his men did do a great job after all. All the money he had to spend on this exercise, was worth its while.The doctor was evenforting the family for him.
What the doctor said after that, drained all colour from Jing Yirans face.
Because this baby was innately crippled, and it would have died shortly after birth. I checked the mother up and she waspletely healthy. So, the issue must be from the father.
He turned towards Jing Yiran and enquired,Are you the father?
No!
Yes!
The three women answered at the same time. Although the answers werent in concurrence to Jing Yirans,the doctor was experienced and seemed to have seen simr situations before. He nodded and continued with his diagnosis, ignoring Jing Yiran, I suggest that this man needs to get a detailed check up at the hospital at the earliest, to see what the problem is, in case any of his future offspring is affected. Young men these days,should learn how to restrain themselves from all vices, otherwise pregnancy would be quite difficult for your wife, in the future. Dont regret it when it happens. Take preventive action now.
Jing Yiran understood his own physical condition very well. How could he be sick? This stupid doctor must be lying!
He knew that it did not make any sense for him to argue about anything right now and there was no way to prove the doctor wrong as well. He couldnt randomly get a woman pregnant just to prove his prowess.
After they came out of the hospital, Mo Lan and Zhang Rong forced Jing Yiran toe with them to Family Mus Hospital.
As for Chudan, Zhang Rong had driven her away. She was of no value without the baby, and she may as well just leave, after getting a marypensation.
Family Mus Hospital was the most top notch hospital in A city, with the best qualified doctors and thetest equipment.City. The privacy it provided to its patients, was one of its strongest advantages. No private information was leaked to anyone else. It was the best ce to get Jing Yiran checked up.
Besides, Jingsheng Enterprise had a share in Family Mus Hospital and getting treatment here was like getting treatment at their own home. It was safe and convenient.
The olddy, who had been cheated by her grandson once, didnt trust him any more. Without listening to any of his suggestions or exnations, she dragged him to Family Mus Hospital.
The current Head of Family Mus Hospital, was an outstanding and capable doctor called Mu Qing. Out of the respect he had for Family Jing, Mu Qing personally came to receive Grandma Mo Lan and her family, when they reached the hospital.
Jing Yiran wasnt sure if he was hallucinating. He thought he saw Mu Qing smirking at him. When he paid close attention to Mu Qing, he realised that all of this must just be a figment of his imagination. Mu Qing seemed extremely well behaved and was cheerful and enthusiastic.

Mu Qing was on good terms with Grandma Mo Lan. When he addressed her as Grandma, it sounded more sincere than when it came from her own grandson, Jing Yiran.
He was very warm and friendly towards Zhang Rong as well. He addressed her respectfully as The Lady.
Both grandma and Zhang Rong liked him immediately. They chatted for a while, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant. Only Jing Yiran stood there, with a smug expression on his face, as if he had lost millions of yuan C which he had, but none of his family knew that.
Mu Qing asked after sometime, Are you here to get a check up for yourself, Grandma? As far as I can see, you are doing very well, and you are fit enough to be the ambassador of our hospital!
Honestly, neither Mo Lan nor Zhang Rong had any idea about Jing Yirans physical condition. Both of them were very worried and assumed that the doctor from the other hospital was probably right.
If Jing Yiran was in perfect health, howe the only woman he had managed to impregnate, turned out to carry a baby who would eventually be born an invalid.
They had both ignored his idiosyncrasies in the past but not anymore. The olddy answered Mu Qing this time. Its not me who is here for a checkup. It is Ran who needs some help.
Mu Qing surveyed Jing Yiran from his head to toe, and said reassuringly, He looks just fine. He isnt injured or anything, right?
Although it was quite difficult for her to speak of such things, but the 70-year-old grandma loved her grandson a lot and wasnt going to be shy as this was the question of the Jing Familys future generations. She paused and said in a low voice, He is not injured. The thing is C I wish to have a great-grandson. Could you kindly arrange for a professional expert to check him up in that aspect? If he really has a problem, we need to treat him as soon as possible. It mustnt be dyed.
Mu Qing looked at Jing Yiran, who was leaning against the wall. He tried to control hisughter seeing Jing Yirans fury and difort. Somehow, he stayed calm and said seriously, You dont need to look any further, Grandma. I am an expert in this field. Dont worry, if Yiran is indeed healthy, then all is good. But if he is sick somehow, I will definitely get to the root of the problem and make sure that you are given the joy of being a great-grandmother, in theing year!
That was exactly what the olddy wanted to hear. She couldnt help but smile and said happily, Bless you, my child. You are a skilled doctor and I entrust Yiran into your capable hands!
Mu Qing thought to himself C Grandma Mo Lan would definitely be a great- grandparent next year. That it would be on ount of Jing Yichens child, was a small technical detail that he refrained to mention. It would definitely not be because of Jing Yiran.
He nodded at the olddy and then smiled.
Soon, Jing Yiran was wheeled into the private ward, along with Grandma Mo Lan and Zhang Rong, so that Mu Qing could inspect him.
Come, Second Master, take off your pants!
Jing Yiran looked at him and tried in vain to insult Mu Qing. He said, What do you mean, doctor? I dont like men. I only like pretty girls with big breasts and asses! But if you really want to please me, I might consider it, though this ce is terrible. We need a king-size bed.
Mu Qing ignored himpletely. He put on his mask and rubber gloves as he said calmly, I hope that you can still talk with me in this arrogant manner, after I am done with you.
Jing Yiran chose to keep quiet. An IV was inserted into his arm and he felt low on energy, in a matter of minutes.
Mu Qing helped him sit up and then carried him to the operation table. He then took off Jing Yirans trousers, exposing his bright red underpants.
Jing Yiran had no energy left in him, but he was still aware of what was happening. When Mu Qing was taking his pants off, he mumbled, Mu Qing, if you dare to touch me one more time, I will definitely kill you!
Mu Qing ignored him and his threats. Within the next minute, he took off Jing Yirans red underpants, exposing his penis.
Aha, you are well endowed. No wonder you are busy fooling around all the time. What is confirmed though, is that you are definitely impotent. To help you to get over this problem, I will prescribe some supplementary drinks for you. Drink them often.. as often as you drink water. Soon you will be cured and be perfectly alright within a year.
If looks could kill, Mu Qing would be a dead man; by the way that Jing Yiran stared at him. Unmindful of his deathly stares, Mu Qing continued, Dont move, okay? I am using some needles now. It might hurt a little bit but Im sure that you will definitely be able to tolerate this pain. After all you are The Jing Yiran.
As soon as he said this, he inserted a needle into Jing Yirans penis.
The screams inside the operation roomsted for a very long time. They broke Zhang Rongs heart, while she waited outside. She asked Grandma Mo Lan, Mom, you dont think that Ran will have any problem, will he? Why does the treatment hurt so much?
Mo Lan wasnt so sure either, but she trusted Mu Qings professional skills. Sheforted her. Dont worry, it will be fine. Its possible that the treatment for this kind of problem is a painful one.
Half an hourter, Mu Qing finally removed all the needles from Jing Yirans penis and then poured a bottle of medicine into Jing Yirans mouth, before he was finally done.
Hey, what are you screaming about? This operation room is not soundproof and everyone outside must have heard you scream. I could do without this kind of bad publicity, you know.
I dont want anyone to think that I am taking advantage of you. Also, you must know that I dont like men; I only like pretty girls with big breasts and asses. He repeated the same words that Jing Yiran had said to him earlier.
Mu Qing felt much better, now that Jing Yiran was in pain. After all, it was Jing Yiran who had kidnapped Shangguan Ning from hospital, even though she was seriously unwell, so much so that she almost lost her life. Mu Qing had no choice but to request his grandpa toe and stabilise her condition at midnight.
It was a critical situation and Shangguan Ning was on life support. Mu Qing was very angry because of this and this was the time to seek revenge for Shangguan Nings sake.
Jing Yirans penis and his lower body had been punctured with needles, causing him a lot of pain. His face was no longer handsome and his eyes were devoid of their gleam.
Fifteen minutester, the effect of the numbing drug started to fade away. Jing Yiran was finally able to get back on his feet. Ignoring the unbearable pain in his lower body, he pulled Mu Qing by his cor and punched him on his face, with as much strength as he could muster.
Blood gushed out of Mu Qings nose, breaking it instantly.
Jing Yiran was about to punch him once again when Mu Qing stopped him in time, by saying One more punch and the rest of your life will be ruined. You will be a real eunuch!
Jing Yirans hand, which was already in position to box Mu Qing, stiffened. Teeth clenched, he withdrew his hand and held back.
Mu Qing ignored his bleeding nose for now, so that he could earn some sympathy from Grandma Mo Lanter. He wanted to see her expressions, when he told that it was her beloved grandson who had caused him all this trouble.
If Mu Qing had made a single mistake with the needle, whilst he was inserting it into Jing Yirans penis, Jing Yiran would be rendered impotent for the rest of his life. Although Jing Yiran was livid with Mu Qing for choosing this method of treatment, he had no choice but to control his anger.
Jing Yiran could sense that something was definitely wrong with all of the events that had happened today. Mu Qing hadnt even checked Jing Yiranpletely before starting with his treatment. Mu Qing also did not try any other method of treatment. Mu Qing inserted needles into him the moment he was made to lie down on the operating table.
Suddenly the whole thing was as clear as day.
This was all staged.
And the man who had caused all of this to happen, could just be one person.
Jing Yichen!

Jing Yiran was so angry, he was seething. He could kill Mu Qing this very moment, and not regret it one bit.
But Mu Qing wasnt afraid of him. He said calmly. Im an expert at acupuncture, if I may say so myself. I created a process, specially customised to suit your needs. As a reward for your exemry behaviour over thest few months, you will not be able to get intimate with a woman for a year, at least.
This instigated Jing Yiran even further. In a fit of rage, he punched Mu Qing on his face once more.
Mu Qing winced in pain. Lying on the floor, he cried loudly, One more punch and you will not be able to get intimate with a woman for the rest of your life!
This threat seemed to have worked. Jing Yiran stopped instantly.
I am not fooling around with you. What I have done to you can only be cured by me and no one else, so dont waste your time and money, trying to get it rectified by someone other practitioner. Come to me for another acupuncture session after one year, so that you can live a normal life again.
No intercourse for one year! That was like killing him!
In his mind, Jing Yiran saw the pieces of the jigsaw fall into ce. By now he was certain, that all of this was the handiwork of Jing Yichen, including the n of sending a pregnant woman to the Jing House.
He had walked into Yichens trap.
Mu Qing was hurt and in pain, but seeing Jing Yiran so angry and frustrated, gave him immense happiness.
You better be on your best behaviour henceforth, if you dont want to be a eunuch. I might cure you in less than a year, if I am impressed with you.
After Mu Qing said what he had to, he left the operation theatre. Standing there for longer would mean asking for trouble. Jing Yiran may just punch him again. Mu Qing was handsome and he knew it. He also knew how important his looks were, when it came to impressing thedies. It would alle to nothing, if his face was ruined.
In the waiting lounge outside the operation room, Grandma Mu Lan and Zhang Rong were both waiting with bated breath. They stood up on seeing Mu Qing leave the operation theatre.
How did it go, Doctor? How is Ran...? Zhang Rong was more worried than Grandma Mu Lan. What if something happened to her son? What if he couldnt have any children in the future? Family Jing would treat them as outcastes and moreover, Jing Yichen would be the sole heir to the Jing empire.
Mu Qing had blood all over his face, and some blood had stained the white hospital gown he was wearing. His well groomed hair was unkempt and he looked very messy.
The olddy was much calmer than Zhang Rong. She was certain that her grandson had punched Mu Qing when she saw Mu Qing in this pitiful condition.
She didnt ask about Jing Yiran. Instead, she interrupted Zhang Rong and said in a remorseful voice, Mu Qing, I am so sorry that Ran hurt you. You have such a big heart that you continued with his treatment despite his juvenile behaviour. I truly appreciate what you have done for us and for this, I owe you one.
Mu Qing wiped off the blood from his nose and said quickly, No, no, Grandma. Ran and I are good friends and he was just anxious because of his current condition. I dont me him at all. As long as he can be cured, I wontin, even if he punches me to death.
Jing Yiran had walked towards them by now and had heard Mu Qing lie with a straight face. He wanted to punch him once more, but he dare not do that. After all,his mother and grandmother were right there and he knew very well that Mu Qing now had the power to decide when Jing Yiran would be able to get intimate with a woman, next.
Seeing her son look so pale, Zhang Rong went up to him and gave him a hug. She realised that his dark blue shirt was soaked with sweat. She asked, Are you alright, Ran? Why are you sweating so much?
Jing Yiran chose not to reply. He just gave Mu Qing a dirty look.
Mu Qing patiently exined to Zhang Rong and Grandma, Well, Ran doesnt have any serious physical ailment, but I think he has just gone overboard with a few things.Its a good thing that I have discovered the root of the problem, otherwise the consequences would have been dire.
The olddy and Zhang Rong immediately understood what he meant. Jing Yiran never controlled his urges and fooled around with so many women. Of course he had overdone it. Both of them asked in unison, What can be done to correct this, doctor?
This seemed to be getting bad to worse, for Jing Yiran. Neither his grandma nor his mother chose to believe his version of things.Instead, they believed this quack, Mu Qing, who had almost killed him on the operating table.
Jing Yiran knew very well that he had not overdone it, contrary to what Mu Qing imed.
He did have numerous affairs but all of this was just exaggerated in ordance to his image. In reality, he had been intimate with only a handful of women.
This self created casanova image had nowe back to bite him. His mother and grandmother simple refused to believe him.
Jing Yiran finally realized how smart Jing Yichen was. Yichen had fabricated everything with such finesse that Jing Yiran had walked into his trap, out of his own ord. Yiran could see it but these two silly women were still falling in line with Jing Yichens n, and they didnt even know it. Jing Yiran imagined Yichenughing at him.
He couldnt take this for another minute, but clearly Mu Qing was not done with him yet. Mu Qing went on to say, Ran deserves a good rest now. Although I did some acupuncture on him so that he feels better, yet it is not a foolproof method. The best prescription would be for him to rest at home and not get intimate with any woman for an entire year. If he chooses to ignore my advice, the treatment that we have done so far will be of no use. I will prescribe some traditional Chinese medicine for himter which can be boiled in water and he can sip on it, through the day, once he gets home. He is not allowed to eat meat or spicy food. He also mustnt smoke or drink alcohol, during the course of his treatment. Maintain a stable temperament and dont get too excited or depressed. Try to control your temper too, as that is very important...
Mu Qing went on and on for some time and both the women hung onto every word he said. From the looks of it, it seemed that they were definitely going to follow Mu Qings n of treatment, to the T. Jing Yiran couldnt believe that he would have to lead a life of abstinence for an entire year.
He may as well be a monk, if he followed Mu Qings line of treatment.
Mu Qing saw them off, after spending the entire afternoon with them.
Immediately after they left, he called Jing Yichen. He sounded very excited and said, Master Jing, I did it. Thanks to my work, he is not going to be able to indulge in sexual intercourse, for at least one year! Hahaha, also, Grandma Mu Lan is definitely going to keep a check on him and his mother has promised that she would be even stricter than her. Looks like Jing Yiran is all set to be celibate, for the next twelve months.
Jing Yichen didnt mirror Mu Qings excitement, because he knew Jing Yiran better than Mu Qing did.
He knew very well that Jing Yiran was too smart for this. Yiran would definitely not follow Mu Qings advice. Judging from Jing Yirans personality, it was absolutely unrealistic to expect him to abstain from all his vices for this long.
However, Jing Yichen wasnt done with his revenge as yet. He still had a few more surprises in store for Yiran.
He said to Mu Qing,Thank you for your assistance. Keep an eye out for him, will you? Also, when Grandma Mu Lan visits you next, just make the disease sound even more dire.
After he was done speaking with Mu Qing, he disconnected the line. He then summoned Tiger into the study.
How is it going on with Xie Zhuojun?
Master, he has be a lot more suspicious of Shangguan Rouxue. He has been keeping a tab of her whereabouts. Whom she meets, whom she speaks with, on the phone.. the works.. He suspects that Shangguan Rouxue has been cheating on him with other men.They keep quarrelling all the time and their rtionship is quite unstable.
Then give them a hand and make sure that she marries him.

Chapter 147: Some More Happiness

Jing Yichen massaged his forehead. He had been very angry about Jing Yirans constant interference in everything.
If he hadnt shown Shangguan Rouxues picture to Xie Zhuojun, Xie Zhuojun would only have a good impression of Shangguan Rouxue in his mind. There wouldnt have been such a huge crack in their rtionship. They would have even begun with wedding preparations by now.
Jing Yichens goal had never been tearing them apart. Instead, he had been nning to get them married and let them live the rest of their lives in pain! That was the best revenge.
If Shangguan Rouxue left Xie Zhuojun now, then his life would be much simpler. That is not what Jing Yichen had nned out for him. He hadnt seen through the woman as yet. Jing Yichen was definitely not going to allow Xie Zhuojun to quit halfway.
Wasnt he so deeply in love with that vicious woman? Then he deserved to have her stay by his side, for the rest of his life.
Tiger, put a hold on the roadblocks that we had nned for Xie Zhuojun. Allow his enterprise to develop. Let it do better. If hispany ends up going bankrupt right now, Shangguan Rouxue is definitely not going to marry him. I have erased all proofs of Shangguan Rouxues rendezvous with various other men. Make sure we have all the proofs in our hands, so that Xie Zhuojun is unable to find anything, even if he looks for it. This will be our wedding present to him, when he gets married.
Alright, Master.
Tiger smiled. What he enjoyed most of all was to teach people a lesson after they had wronged someone, intentionally. Xie Zhuojun must have annoyed Master or The Lady, in some way for him to be meted out with this treatment. His Master dide up with a good n. Xie Zhuojun would probably curse his luck, when he learnt of the truth.
Give them a hand, so they can get married as soon as possible. Undue dy may make them think twice about wanting to be together. Jing Yichen said calmly.
Many truths woulde to light after they got married. When they were busy arguing with each other, they would definitely have no time to trouble Shangguan Ning.
Tiger answered positively. Then he asked hesitantly, Master, when Ji Minyu stepped down from her position of the mayor, the Ladys father has be the acting mayor, thanks to the name dropping that he has been doing. He has been using your name to climb the politicaldder. Do you think that the Lady should be informed?
Jing Yichen already knew about Shangguan Zhengs tactics. He was trying hard to gather allies, using Jing Yichens name to get more people to back him. Yichen didnt want to bother with Zheng now.
The new Mayor for the city had already been chosen and it was not Shangguan Zheng. Although Jing Yichen had the capability to reserve the position of A citys mayor for Shangguan Zheng, he still refused to help him.
This mans pursuit of power had already corrupted his heart and mind. He would be willing to do anything to go higher.
Helping Shangguan Zheng would eventually harm Shangguan Ning.
Jing Yichen wanted to allow Shangguan Zheng to climb a little higher before letting him fall. The worse the fall, the more it would help to clear Shangguan Zhengs mind.
No need to bother the Lady, I understand what is going on. Let him be the representing Mayor. The position is only active for one month. After one month, the new Mayor will be announced. During this period, dont bother to stop him, no matter what he says to the others.
If he stopped Shangguan Zheng from using his name to gather more aides, Zheng would soon realize that the Mayors position was out of reach. Yichen knew that Zheng would be willing to cross mountains for the Mayors position. He would definitely scheme and plot against Shangguan Ning once more.
Besides, the fact that Shangguan Zheng had be acting mayor, would act as a propent to the marriage of Xie Zhuojun and Shangguan Rouxue.
The atmosphere was lively and vibrant at the Family Shangguan vi. Shangguan Zheng was in the midst of a conversation with Xie Dongfeng, over a drink. He kept talking about his magnificent ns for the future, as if he had already be the Mayor.
Xie Dongfeng congratted him. He also felt that Shangguan Zheng would be the mayor.
Generally speaking, an acting Mayor was the obvious choice to be the Mayor. There was only one month to go before the Mayor took the oath to office and Shangguan Zheng was the popr choice. Everything was going exactly the way it was meant to.
He nced at his son who had been absent-minded for too often recently and then nced at Shangguan Rouxue who looked perfect, sitting next to him. He finally made up his mind.
Brother, lets give ourselves some more reasons to celebrate. Look at our children. They have grown up now and are already engaged. Lets pick a nice day and get the two kids married.
Hearing what Xie Dongfeng had to say, all chatter at the table stopped. Then Xie Zhuojuns mother Wang Lu added cheerfully, Thats right. I really like Xue and I wish she could be my daughter-inw really soon. When she gives birth to a chubby baby boy, I will think that I have achieved all the joys in my life.
Yang Wenshu, who was sitting next to Shangguan Zheng, had a few ugly looking red scars all over her face and neck. She had covered it up with some make up, but it didnt help much. She was so conscious of the way she looked that she not only wore makeup when she was due to meet someone, she also wore it when she went to bed. Her face looked haggard from wearing the makeup from so many hours on end.
She had refused to meet with anyone after she got the burn scars. She would not havee out to meet the visitors even today, had they not been Family Xie.
She had hated Shangguan Ning to the core and kept thinking about ways of taking revenge from her. Shangguan Zheng, for some reason, didnt allow her to go out and had even warned her to not cause Shangguan Ning any further trouble.
She was just waiting for the right time to get even with Shangguan Ning. Till then, she kept all the bitterness to herself.
This was not the time to think of unpleasant incidents. She was in a good mood now.
She was happy that Family Xie had proposed the marriage out of their ord. For one thing, her daughter would find a good husband in Xie Zhuojun and be married into a family that was so rich and influential. For another, when Xie Zhuojun got married, Shangguan Ning was definitely going to be heartbroken. This is what pleased Yang Wengshu most of all.
Yang Wenshu didnt have the faintest idea that Shangguan Ning was already married.
Shangguan Rouxue put down her chopsticks, blushed and said, I am done with dinner. I need to get back to my room!
She said this and turned around to rush to her room. Her cheeks were flushed with colour.
Wang Lu couldnt help butugh with joy.Shangguan Zheng and Xie Dongfeng also smiled and started to discuss the wedding.
Shangguan Zheng didnt think that Xie Dongfeng would be of much help anyway, considering that he himself was almost the mayor. Yet, one couldnt ignore that Family Xie was also a wealthy family with excellent prospects. Theirpany had recently received severalrge scale orders and business had been going on very smoothly.
With cash in hand, everything would work itself out. When he became the Mayor eventually, he was going to need a great deal of money to socialize and entertain. For that Xie Dongfeng was definitely going to offer a helping hand.
Shangguan Rouxue was an obedient daughter and had many achievements under her belt. It was a good thing that she would be married into Family Xie.
Shangguan Zheng still had some love for his younger daughter. It was just a matter of time before they got married. Now that the couple were already engaged, it would be better if the wedding was held as soon as possible. When the families came together as one, Xie Dongfeng would do more than expected anyway.
The wedding date couldnt be decided on, right then, so the families came up with a general period within which they would prefer the couple to get married. They left the specific date to be decided on by some Feng Shui Master.
Xie Zhuojun felt no happiness hearing their discussion about his impending wedding. Instead, he felt very ufortable in his heart.
He had already burnt the picture that Jing Yiran had given to him, but the image of Shangguan Rouxue smiling, in another mans arms, was still ingrained in his heart and mind. He also couldnt forget that particr evening at Ji Lilis birthday party when Shangguan Rouxue had bumped against Shangguan Ning, intentionally.

Chapter 148: Xie Zhuojuns Heart Was Changed
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Xie Zhuojun didnt want to hear their enthusiastic discussion about the wedding, so he left the table and said, I will go and look for Xue upstairs.
Actually, he didnt want to meet Shangguan Rouxue. He hadnte up with any ideas about what to do.
He couldnt ept that the woman whom he had loved for so many years, was a girl with such a conniving mind. She had been lying to him for all these years!
So what Shangguan Ning said earlier, had all been true.
She kept insisting that Shangguan Rouxue was acting but he still continued to defend Xue with his full might and scolded Shangguan Ning without consideration, iming that she was just being jealous!
Now he needed to find out the whole truth about Shangguan Rouxue. Unless and until he did that, he was not getting married!
He didnt want a woman who could hurt her own sister and indulged in other shameless acts.
Till now, he had discovered some disturbing facts about her, but a couple of dayster, he discovered that Shangguan Rouxue was innocent and the picture had been photoshopped. Shangguan Rouxue hadnt even been present at that hotel..
Everyone around spoke highly of Shangguan Rouxue and it seemed that people had started to speak positively about her all of a sudden. Those women who used to say that she had evil intentions, also suddenly started to praise her as well.
Shangguan Rouxue had also became much gentler than before and took better care of him. She seemed to have be much prettier than before.
Xie Zhuojun had a fickle mind, so after hearing about peoples positivements about Shangguan Rouxue, he almost believed that he had made a mistake about seeing the scene where Shangguan Rouxue tried to bump Shangguan Ning.
For some reason he also became more sexually active than before. He always got into a frenzy and would want to rip off her clothes and took her brutally whenever he saw her.
He suspected that there was something wrong with his physical condition, but after a check-up, the doctor at the hospital said that he was doing fine.
Finally rxed and assured, he started to treat Shangguan Rouxue nicely again.
Shangguan Rouxue let out a sigh of relief seeing that Xie Zhuojun was willing to get close to her once again.
She knew that Xie Zhuojun had been investigating her, but it seemed that someone was helping her remove all the bad things about her and only nt positive things about her everywhere.
Another half a month had passed. The Mayor of A City was finally confirmed and took the office on the very same day.
When Shangguan Zheng got to know that he didnt get selected, he got so furious that he passed out on the spot.
He was sent to the hospital immediately, where his family were informed toe and look after him.
Yang Wenshu and Shangguan Rouxue reached the hospital in a hurry. Seeing Shangguan Zheng ina, the mother and the daughter started crying.
When Xie Zhuojun learnt about Shangguan Zhengs situation, he also put down his work and went to the hospital.
Yang Wenshu and Shangguan Rouxue became totally dependent on him when they saw him. They asked him to go through every procedure, making him spend the entire day running up and down in the hospital. After getting tired and sweaty, he returned to the ward, only to face the two tearful women.
Xie Zhuojun became unusually annoyed when he saw Yang Wenshus scary face.
She cried so much that the tears washed away the powder on her face, exposing the horrifying scars.
For some reason, Xie Zhuojun had started to think that Yang Wenshus horrifying face exposed her horrifying inner heart. The gentle kindness, which she had possessed earlier was all gone.
He took another look at Shangguan Rouxue who was also in tears and who looked always kind and lovely, a strange feeling arose inside his heart. If Shangguan Rouxue were to lose her fragile and lotus-like face, would she also be as horrifying as Yang Wenshu?
He shivered involuntarily, not daring to think any further.
All of a sudden, he wanted to meet Shangguan Ning. Maybe in the entire family, she was the only one who wasnt wearing a mask. Maybe only by meeting her, would he be able to confirm one more thing.
Xie Zhuojun consoled the two women and after seeing that Shangguan Zheng was still ina, spoke in a concerned voice, Uncle has always been healthy. Unfortunately, he is unconscious right now. I think that I should tell Ning about it. He is her father and she should visit him no matter what.
Both Yang Wenshu and Shangguan Rouxue got startled. Yang Wenshus eyes burst into hatred when she heard the name. That vicious gleam frightened Xie Zhuojun, who had been looking at her at that time.
Had Yang Wenshus heart also been ruined when her face was?
Hadnt she always been the kind woman who believed in Buddhism, in love and tolerance?
Shangguan Rouxue understood that her mother was losing control again. She immediately took hold of Xie Zhuojuns arms and said with tears in her eyes, You are right, Zhuojun, daddy is so sick and both mom and I are so worried. Thank you for helping with the procedures. As for sister... you better call her. I dont think that sister will answer my call. She probably doesnt want to forgive me yet...
Previously, if Shangguan Rouxue spoke to him with this expression, he would instantly be heart-broken and hate Shangguan Ning even more, thinking that she was too heartless and irrational.
But right now, although he still thought that Shangguan Rouxue was fragile and pitiful, yet his heart wasnt moved by it.
Hearing that Shangguan Rouxue approving of his proposal, he said instantly. I will call her now. You stay here with Uncle and Aunt.
Shangguan Ning came to hospital immediately after receiving Xie Zhuojuns call that her father was ina.
No matter what Shangguan Zheng had done to her, he was her father, at the end of the day.
The moment Shangguan Ning came to the ward, Yang Wenshu was unable to control the hatred in her heart. She extended her hand and brought her sharply pointed fingernails towards Shangguan Nings face.
She had been waiting for this opportunity for a very long time. Shangguan Zheng had forbidden her from meeting Shangguan Ning after her face was ruined and Shangguan Ning had never returned to their home either, post that incident. Now the opportunity eventually arrived and she was definitely not going to let go of it!
Seeing Yang Wenshuing at her suddenly, Shangguan Ning retreated in panic and protected her face quickly.
But nothing happened. When she opened her eyes, she found that Xie Zhuojun was standing between her and Yang Wenshu.
Two bloody scars had appeared on his handsome face, looking extremely vicious.
Zhuojun!
Shangguan Rouxue cried out in a trembling voice. She went up and took hold of his face and said in concern, Are you alright, Zhuojun? Mom, get a doctor!
Yang Wenshu hadnt expected that Xie Zhuojun woulde to Shangguan Nings defence. She panicked, not knowing what she should do when she hurt his face with her sharp fingernails. Hearing what her daughter said, she immediately came back to her senses.
She tried to exin to Xie Zhuojun in panic. I didnt mean to do that, Zhuojun, I didnt want to hurt you! Wait a second, I will get the doctor right away!

Xie Zhuojuns face felt a stinging pain on his face, so much so that the doctor had to apply some medicine and bandage it up.
Shangguan Ning had never expected that Xie Zhuojun would stand up for her.
She didnt know how she felt at the moment when he did. She was both astonished and grateful.
She had always been the ignored one standing next to Shangguan Rouxue earlier. Why did Xie Zhuojun fail to notice her then?
If this had happened four years ago, she would have shed tears of gratitude and followed Xie Zhuojun even more reverently.
But at this moment, she felt grateful but no feelings of affection. The harm done to her in the past was something that she would not be able to forget.
Seeing the gauze on Xie Zhuojuns face, she quietly said, Thank you.
Xie Zhuojun turned his head and looked at Shangguan Nings serene face. For the very first time, he found himself standing at a distance from her, even though she was right next to him.
No worries. This is what I should do. He sounded depressed, not because of the wound on the face, but because of the wound in his heart.
Shangguan Ning felt that she had no more to say to Xie Zhuojun, so she stood up after seeing that he was fine. Take rest, and I will go check on my father.
Saying so, she walked out of the ward without giving him another look.
The formidable andmanding Shangguan Zheng was lying in the sickbed. He looked pale and weak like any ordinary old man. Wrinkles had covered his face and his hair had gone grey.
He was lying in the sickbed quietly in the ward, totally alone. Both Yang Wenshu and Shangguan Rouxue were missing. He was still ina and he hadnt woken up.
The doctor said that he was fine, except that he had been deeply affected by something for his heart to bear it. What he needed was a few days rest.
Shangguan Ning already knew the reason for Shangguan Zhengs current state. She found him very pathetic.
She remembered that on the day when her mothermitted suicide, Shangguan Zheng hadnt reacted much except for disying some sadness.
And today, he wasnt able to bear the truth that he had failed to be the Mayor and remained the Deputy Mayor. Such was the impact, that he got so upset and his heart couldnt take it.
For him, the position and power were more important than anything else. He could lose his wife and sacrifice his own daughter. He could even abandon his own self-esteem but he couldnt lose the position.
What Shangguan Ning didnt understand was that why was he still aspiring for a higher position when he was already in his 50s. He was already in a position that the general folk admired, yet he was still not satisfied.
She wished that he was an ordinary father, not a Deputy Mayor.
Knowing that he was fine, Shangguan Ning got up to leave after sometime. She had never been close to Shangguan Zheng because he had given all of his fatherly love to Shangguan Rouxue. She felt as if she was looking at a stranger when she sat next to him.
But before Shangguan Ning managed to walk away from the ward, Shangguan Rouxue walked in.
Her eyes were red from crying. It must have been because Yang Wenshu ripped Xie Zhuojuns face off.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but shiver when she thought of Yang Wenshus scary face lunging at her, the moment she entered the door.
Had it been because Shangguan Zheng was ina, or because she hated Ning to the bones, that Yang Wenshus mask of gentleness which she had kept intact for years, was ripped offpletely.
Shangguan Rouxue was still trying to show herself to be pitiful and kind. It was not clear what she was up to.
Sister, daddy just passed out all of a sudden. I am so worried. He will be fine, wont he?
No one is here, so go ahead and say what you want. I am quite tired of watching you pretend!
Shangguan Ning knew all the tricks and acting skills of Shangguan Rouxues. She was not moved at all.
Sister, Zhuojun and I are getting married! Cant you just forget the past and give us your blessing? Shangguan Rouxues eyes were still full of tears. She looked as if she had been wronged.
I can forget the past, but giving you my blessing is impossible. I am already being kind enough not to curse you two! If you are showing off that you have seeded in bing his woman, then you dont need to do that, because you seeded in that four years ago, the moment you entered his bed. I will not want the man whom other women have used!
Shangguan Ning sneered, opened the door and walked out.
Shangguan Rouxue followed her out. She kept calling her Sister, causing everyone at the hospital to turn to look at them.
When Shangguan Ning came to the staircase, Shangguan Rouxue caught up with her.
There were few people there, and Shangguan Rouxue stopped in front of her.
She said in tears, Sister, Daddy is so sick right now, why are you leaving and why arent you taking care of him? He loves you so much, how can you be so heartless?
Shangguan Ning was about to say something when she felt a sharp pain in her knees. She couldnt hold on to her bnce and started to fall.
It was a staircase of dozens of flights. She would be crippled even she didnt die after she fell from here!
Shangguan Rouxue was so ruthless. She had distracted her by talking with her and then kicked her knees violently!
But the tumble she had expected didnt happen. Instead, she fell into a warm and familiar embrace.
Be careful. Never stand alone with this woman. It will make me worried.
The low voice reached her ears. It sounded concerned and angry.
Shangguan Ning looked up from his arms and said in surprise. What are you doing here?
I am a husband, a bodyguard and a driver to my wife when she is out. I dont want you to be bullied. A smile hovered at Jing Yichens face as he massaged her hair in a spoiling way.
Then he bent down and felt the knee which Shangguan Rouxue had kicked. He asked in concern, Does it hurt? Is it ok? Let me take you to Mu Qing!
Shangguan Ning shook her head and held him by his tapered waist as she said softly. It is okay. You are enough. It doesnt hurt now that I have seen you.
She had been so afraid a moment ago at the thought of falling down but he appeared in time when she needed him most.
She felt that she was the Cindere in a fairy tale whilst Jing Yichen was the Prince Charming who was always by her side.
That was the first time Shangguan Ning spoke with Jing Yichen in this way. She had always been bashful and didnt know how to act as a spoiled girl. But when she spoke in such a manner, he was instantly moved.
Jing Yichen couldnt resist kissing her, then he scooped her up and started walking.
Without looking at Shangguan Rouxue, he spoke in a cold voice, I will take double revenge for Ning for todays incident. I hope you live long enough to taste it!

Although Jing Yichen wanted to toss Shangguan Rouxue off the staircase badly, he stopped himself.
By doing this, Shangguan Rouxue would only suffer temporarily. That would be too little a punishment for her.
What Jing Yichen wanted was to destroy her name and her family, so that her entire life waspletely ruined.
He had already collected all the evidence, and as soon as Xie Zhuojun married her, he was going to reveal the other side of hers.
Hopefully, Xie Zhuojun would not change his mind after seeing what happened just now.
Xie Zhuojun did see it clearly that while speaking with Shangguan Ning in an extremely kind tone, Shangguan Rouxue kicked her on her knee on the sly.
What would have happened if Shangguan Ning fell off the staircases, didnt need to be spected.
Outraged, Xie Zhuojun stepped forward and pped hard on the face which he had never been able to see through before.
Are youpletely mad, Shangguan Rouxue? Why didnt I know that you are such a vicious person?
Shangguan Rouxue was stunned by the appearance of Jing Yichen, and she got dumbfounded seeing Xie Zhuojun the next second. Thest thing that she had expected was that this man who had always been so gentle and kind to her, would p her.
In her panic, she couldnt even feel the stinging pain of the p.
Had Xie Zhuojun seen all that had happened?
What should she do? Should she apologize to him?
No way, she mustnt admit the mistake. Once she did, Xie Zhuojun was definitely going to leave her. She couldnt lose him!
Herrge eyes were filled with tears instantly without much effort. Then tears trickled down alongside her cheeks, making her look very heart-breaking.
Zhuojun! How could you p me? I love you more than anyone else in the world. Dont you trust me? Sister lost her bnce on her own. I was just trying to grab her but failed to do so. How can you me me? I would rather fall myself than see her getting hurt!
Her voice was still so gentle and lovely, catchy like the chirping of orioles. But Xie Zhuojun found it extremely noisy.
Shangguan Rouxue, do you take me to be a blind man? Are you still trying to lie to me at this moment? How much longer are you going to keep doing it? I didnt know your real face until today. Either you have been extremely sessful or I have been aplete failure!
Xie Zhuojun got so furious that his entire face turned red. The blue veins on his forehead popped and he was on the verge of losing control.
He wanted to p Shangguan Rouxue once again, but he held himself back in the end. He vented out for a bit and then strode away.
Xie Zhuojuns parents came to the hospital to visit Shangguan Zheng when they got to know that he had fainted.
By then, Xie Zhuojun had already left. Only Yang Wenshu and Shangguan Rouxue were by the sickbed.
Both the daughter and the mother looked terrible. Both, Xie Dongfeng and Wang Lu thought that they were just worried about Shangguan Zheng, so they kept consoling them.
Shangguan Rouxue gathered herself to try and converse with her future parents-inw. But suddenly, she couldnt hold it any more and fainted.
After the doctor examined her, she smiled at the three anxious people. Congrattions, she is four weeks pregnant. Take care of her and dont let her tire out easily, otherwise it would be bad for the child and the mother.
Couple Xie got a bit surprised hearing the words, yet Yang Wenshu got extremely happy.
Her daughter got pregnant at the right time!
Wang Lu and Xie Dongfeng exchanged a look and both of them got worried.
They had been seeing Xie Zhuojuns changing attitude towards Shangguan Rouxue. In the beginning, he had refused to tell them anything but after much prodding, he told them that he didnt want to marry Shangguan Rouxue!
If he hadnt been so unwilling and if he had liked Shangguan Rouxue much, he would definitely not have said anything like that because of his soft-hearted personality. They were engaged and everyone around them knew that. Both Family Xie and Family Shangguan were reputed families in A City and they couldnt be so fickle as to break the promise.
But if their son really disliked Shangguan Rouxue or didnt want to spend his life with her, the couple would eventually support him. It was just an engagement and they had done it before as well. Shangguan Ning had been so devoted to their son and they still had driven her away.
However, if Shangguan Rouxue was pregnant, then it was a different matter!
The reason why they could break the engagement with Shangguan Ning easily before was because nothing happened between her and Xie Zhuojun, and also because she had been an innocent girl. But Shangguan Rouxue was now pregnant with Family Xies baby and it was not going to be easy to break off the engagement.
Although Shangguan Zheng was still ina, yet if he woke up and realized that his pregnant daughters engagement was broken off, he was definitely going to get very angry.
Wang Lu and Xie Dongfeng were both smart, experienced people capable of keeping a poker face and not revealing their true thoughts in front of anyone.
Both of them praised Shangguan Rouxue and asked her to take rest, treating her exactly like their cherished daughter-inw.
Wang Lu scooped out a card from the purse and gave it to Shangguan Rouxue. She said smilingly, This is a little present for you. Buy anything you want to eat and dont be careless or refuse to eat meat just because you dont like animals getting killed.
Shangguan Rouxue promised to do so, with a smile. The four of them chatted happily for a while and then went away with different thoughts in each of their minds.
Couple Xie had a very bad feeling when they didnt see their son there.
Xie Zhuojun hade to the hospital before them but now he was nowhere to be seen. He couldnt have known about Shangguan Rouxue being pregnant and he needed to be informed as soon as possible.
He had to stop thinking about breaking off the engagement with Shangguan Rouxue, and they needed to get married quickly!
After Couple Xie left, Shangguan Rouxues expression of shyness and happiness expression were gone instantly.
Yang Wenshus smiling look was gone as well. She took her daughters hands in her own and asked with a low voice. Xue, didnt you say that you dont want to get pregnant so soon? What happened? If you have a baby now, you will never be an actress!
Shangguan Rouxue had been very devoted to her career. She was fed up with being just a hostess, because it didnt have much of a future for her. She had spoken with several directors and producers about getting into the film industry, so that she could be an actress quickly.
But if she was pregnant at this stage, her future was definitely going to be affected.
Family Xie had not approved her of getting involved with the entertainment industry, and they would definitely not allow her to be an actress after she got pregnant.
Hands tightly clenched, Shangguan Rouxue said in a vicious tone, one that was totally different from her usual gentle tone. Dont worry, Mother. I never wanted to have this baby. But I have reason to announce it at this moment. I have a long-term n!

Chapter 151: No Room Left for Retreat

Shangguan Rouxue had known that she was pregnant since the week before, but she kept it as a secret, because she wanted to abort the baby. But at this moment, she wanted to keep this child, otherwise Xie Zhuojun might not want to marry her!
Jing Yichens men had kept an eye out for Shangguan Rouxue all the time, so he knew about her visiting the hospital for the pregnancy test immediately. That was why he had restrained himself from throwing her off the staircases.
He mustnt make Shangguan Rouxue lose the child, or Xie Zhuojun would cross the barrier and they might not get married in the end.
Jing Yichen had made numerous preparations just to wait until they got married so as to unveil Shangguan Rouxues truth. If they didnt get married, then Xie Zhuojun would not have to suffer!
He was never going to let go of anybody that once hurt Shangguan Ning!
Shangguan Rouxue had no idea that thanks to the baby, she escaped from being punished for the time being. At this moment, she was busy thinking about how to keep Xie Zhuojun.
When Yang Wenshu heard that she didnt n to keep the child, she couldnt help but get worried. Why? Your baby is Family Xies grandson and they wont let you decide on your own!
Dont worry, mom! As long as I can marry Zhuojun first, then everything else will be fine. It will be much easier for me to make something happen to the baby in my belly. Shangguan Rouxue told her what she thought without hiding anything.
She had loved Xie Zhuojun for so many years and devoted herself to him so much just because she wanted to marry him and be with him forever.
She was also very happy that she was pregnant with Xie Zhuojuns child, and she had thought about keeping it.
But if she gave birth to the baby, her career would bergely affected and her body shape would be distorted. That she couldnt tolerate!
Xie Zhuojun would not like her if she became fat!
If she didnt have a glorious life as an actress, everybody would look down on her.
She was going to give birth to the baby for Xie Zhuojun, but now was not the time yet.
But the baby needs to be kept well for these two months. No mistake should happen. Shangguan Rouxue massaged her belly, sounding surprisingly cold towards the life in her belly.
Xie Zhuojun soon got to know about Shangguan Rouxues pregnancy. His subconscious reaction was that it couldnt have been possible.
They used protection method each time and Shangguan Rouxue was always on the pill. How could she ever get pregnant?
Besides, he used to like children, and he would sometimes mention to Shangguan Rouxue that she could give birth to a baby for him. But every time she would say that they needed to wait two more years, because her career was developing very fast and she mustnt be pregnant yet.
Shangguan Rouxue had been even more careful about getting pregnant, so how could it have ever happened?
The picture Jing Yiran gave to him emerged in his head and the spoiled look of Shangguan Rouxue when she was sitting in some other mens arms also appeared clearly.
He had been irritable recently and at this moment, he couldnt control himself and broke a crystal ashtray at home.
Wang Lu entered the study instantly hearing the voice. He had been smoking in the study after he knew that Shangguan Rouxue was pregnant.
What is it?
Wang Lu didnt care about that ashtray which had been imported from Germany. She only cared about her son.
When she saw the wound on her sons face and understood that it was Yang Wenshus work, she got so furious that she almost went to Yang Wenshu for justice.
And now when she saw her son furious rather than happy with Shangguan Rouxues pregnancy, she became even more concerned.
Xie Zhuojun leaned his head against Wang Lus arms like a young boy as he said furiously. Mom, I dont want to marry Xue! I saw her pushing Shangguan Ning off the staircases today with my own eyes today. She is way too heartless! I have seen her doing simr things many times. She has done that to Shangguan Ning and to others as well. I keep telling myself that she doesnt do it on purpose but I can no longer lie to myself! She has always been pretending and she has always been lying to me!
Wang Lu got startled. She said with disbelief, How could that be possible? She has always been kind-hearted and she doesnt even want to hurt small cats or dogs. She even refuses to eat meat because she doesnt like animals to be killed! Did you see it wrong?
Shangguan Rouxue had been a gentle and kind woman, which had left a deep impression on Wang Lus mind. She found Xie Zhuojuns words totally incredible.
No, I didnt see anything wrong. She is a woman with no heart. I cant marry her!
Wang Lu was also very annoyed after hearing what her son said. If Family Xie really married such a two-faced woman, then they would not have a peaceful life any more!
But the experienced Wang Lu soon calmed herself down from anger.
I am afraid that it is toote not to marry her now, Zhuojun! She patted her sons back and said lightly. You have been engaged in front of all the friends and rtives, and she is pregnant with Family Xies child. Your wedding date is also set! If we break off the engagement, then our family will be ruined.
But...
Wang Lu interrupted him seriously. No buts! I love you, but you are an adult! You should be responsible for what you say and what you do. Breaking off the engagement is impossible. Dont ever think about it. When you broke off with Shangguan Ning back then, our family almost became theughing stock of the entire A City. Do you know how terrible was the rumor? Luckily, we had Family Shangguan who covered up the entire matter so that your reputation was kept intact.
Wang Lu suddenly thought of what happened back then when she talked about this matter.
She said furiously, Since Shangguan Rouxue is a woman with such deep thoughts, I am afraid that it couldnt have been an easy thing back then!
She had wanted to ask Xie Zhuojun about what happened back then, but she stopped herself every time she had the intention. She asked him numerous times but Xie Zhuojun always imed that he didnt remember exactly what happened then!
She knew that her son wasnt lying. He really didnt remember what happened!
Shangguan Rouxue was indeed a tricky person who had kept them cheated for so many years!
But if she thought that Family Xie were a meek family, then she was totally wrong!
Son, dont be too worried. Shangguan Rouxue may be full of tricks, but I think that she is totally in love with you. We dont need to care if she is vicious towards others, as long as she can be the good daughter -inw of our family, then all will be fine. She dare not to create any fuss with me around!
A touch of coldness shed across Wang Lus eyes. Shangguan Rouxue better stay obedient, otherwise she would not stay so kind!
Xie Zhuojun was her only son whom she had been pampering since he was little. The car ident years back that made him be a vegetative man almost broke her heart.
So after he woke up, she spoiled him even more. They never forced him to do anything and also helped with the business of thepany regrly whilst Xie Zhuojun was only involved in it every now and then. When he said that he didnt want Shangguan Ning back then, they had granted his request and broken off the engagement.
If Shangguan Rouxue had not gotten pregnant, she might have agreed to give Xie Zhuojun what he wanted.
Chapter 152 - I Won’t Help You, Father!
Chapter 152: I Wont Help You, Father!
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Zheng was discharged from the hospital a couple of dayster.
He had always been healthy, and he wouldnt have passed out if he hadnt got overly furious.
Therefore, he only stayed at the hospital for a couple of days for recovery.
The moment he left the hospital, he went straight to Landscape Compound and asked for Shangguan Ning. After being informed that she was not at home, he drove to the office building of Jingsheng Enterprise.
In the guest room of Jingsheng Enterprise, Shangguan Ning asked in surprise. What are you doing here?
Wasnt he in hospital a couple of days ago? And now he waspletely fine?
Sitting on the ck leather sofa of the guest room, Shangguan Zheng looked exhausted and pale as if he hadnt slept for one night.
Tell Jing Yichen to do something so that I can be the Mayor of A City!
He sounded very harsh, just like he usually did. He didnt consider Shangguan Ning as someone important. He always thought that she was his daughter and whatever he requested of her was reasonable.
Shangguan Ning almostughed at his seemingly reasonable and serious attitude.
Whether Jing Yichen was able to help him take over the Mayors position of A City was not the issue at the moment. His attitude of not regarding her as the daughter had made her lose all the interest of helping him.
She said coldly, You only think of me when you are unable to go a step higher, right? I dont think that I am your daughter. I am just a tool for you to get promoted and earn money! Is the official position so important that you would even abandon your wife and your daughter?
Shangguan Zheng heavily put down the cup on the tea table and said furiously. What bullshit are you saying? If I am the Mayor, both you and Jing Yichen would benefit from me. Just say it out straight if you dont want to help. Have I brought you up in vain? The chair of Mayor would have been mine if you were half as obedient as Xue!
Then you better go and find the obedient Xue. I am incapable of offering any help. See you!
Having said the words, Shangguan Ning turned around and was about to walk away when his next words stopped her.
Shangguan Zheng bellowed. Stop! Have I told you to leave? I am your father, not your enemy. Come back here and talk to me!
Shangguan Nings hands were tightly clenched, and her heart ached so much. So he knew that he was a father, not her enemy.
Then why did he keep doing what an enemy did?
What kind of father was he to have sold her daughter without feeling any sense of guilt?
Was his heart carved out of rock?
They were just ring at each other when the door of the guest room opened and Jing Yichen walked in.
Seeing his wifes pale face, Jing Yichen got furious. Deputy Mayor, I recall having told you that if there is any issue,e to me directly and leave my wife alone. But it seems that you havent paid any heed to those words. Maybe you need to be brought down by a couple of levels.
Shanggua Zheng stiffened upon hearing Jing Yichens words.
He knew clearly that Jing Yichen had the ability of helping him to get promoted, but he also had the ability of depriving him of the same.
He was the President of Jingsheng Enterprise and the heir of Family Jing. SShangguan Zheng couldnt behave like he normally did and order him to do anything as a father-inw. He didnt have enough power to do so.
Had it not been Shangguan Ning, he might not even have had the chance of standing so close to Jing Yichen, and ask him to help in his promotion.
When he had met Jing Zhongxiu earlier in his life, he had stressed because of theck of power against someone like him. How could someone like a Deputy Mayor fight against somebody so influential. So he had made up his mind to climb much higher and be able to trample over everyone, make them look up to him.
But after struggling for half of his life, he was still a measly Deputy Mayor. He was not even able to reach the position of the Mayor.
Shangguan Ning didnt want to see her husband meeting her father in this way and discuss such a topic. But what else could she do other than this?
Even if she asked Jing Yichen to help him get hold of the Mayor position, Shangguan Zheng would not be satisfied by just that. He would be more eager to climb higher and put forward even more unreasonable requests.
Jing Yichen trusted her and protected her whole-heartedly. Anyone else would have thought that her family was too vain and would have probably looked down upon her.
Whenever Shangguan Zheng did this kind of thing, he never considered her feelings and circumstances. The only thing he cared about was his own interest!
Shangguan Ning spoke haltingly, Father, just go home. I wont ask Yichen for help and he wont do it either. If you are capable enough, justpete with others in a fair manner. You will never win if you keep using underhand methods.
Shangguan Zheng shivered furiously. He almost went crazy when his wish of so many years went up in smoke. Without thinking, he raised his hand to p Shangguan Ning. He wanted to teach this unfilial daughter a lesson!
But Jing Yichen got hold of his half raised hand in the air.
He stared at Shangguan Zheng with cold eyes and spoke without emotions. Seems that Deputy Mayor doesnt know my personality well enough. I mean whatever I ever say. Soon, you will no longer be the Deputy Mayor, just go home and wait for the message. If you dont want it to worsen, then do as I said earlier C do not trouble my wife, henceforth! She is no longer your daughter. Now she is my wife, and thedy of Jingsheng Enterprise. She is in a higher position and you are not qualified enough to order her to do anything for your sake!
Shangguan Zheng never expected that his spontaneous impulse would cost him the Deputy Mayor position that he had worked so hard to achieve!
He went pale and was about to say something, but Jing Yichen dragged Shangguan Ning out of the guest room, leaving no chance for him to say anything more.
Shangguan Zheng came home in depression and saw Shangguan Rouxue massaging her belly whilst talking with Yang Wenshu happily.
... will my belly get too big for the dress to fit at the wedding?
Something clicked inside Shangguan Zhengs brain. He had one more daughter to help when the other didnt want to!
Family Xie had helped him to get the Deputy Mayor, and they would help him at least keep the current official position if he couldnt get the Mayor position.
Shangguan Rouxue was now pregnant with Xie Zhuojuns child, who was Xie Dongfengs grandchild!
His daughter had made such a great contribution to their family and it was Xie Dongfengs obligation to show some gratitude.
Hahahah! There was always a way out of a desperate situation.
The best thing he ever did in his life was to have brought up two beautiful daughters. And now, it was time for them to pay him back!
When he bes even more powerful, Shangguan Ning, who refused to help him today, would beg him some day!
Chapter 153 - The Leading Female Role Doesn’t Work, Get Someone Else!
Chapter 153: The Leading Female Role Doesnt Work, Get Someone Else!
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
After studying for two months at the Department of Public Rtions, Shangguan Ning was assigned to the Department of Media by Lu Qing.
She was Jing Yichens assistant, the minister close to the emperor. Therefore, everyone was treating her very nicely and kept teaching her whatever they could, so she learnt very fast.
Department of Media was a newly established department that was responsible for the administration of Star Media.
They had invested into a movie recently and the casting work was still not finished.
Every other role was more or less settled, except for the leading female role, who had not yet been decided.
It was the second round of auditions of the candidates for the leading female role today, so Shangguan Ning went to the audition site with Xu Feng, the Director of the Department of Media so that they could decide upon the leading actress at one go.
As the directors at high level of the enterprise, Shangguan Ning and Xu Feng were warmly weed by the entire crew and were assigned the main seats.
The staff gave the script and the list of the candidates as well as all the actors to Shangguan Ning, who leafed through the list as she was watching the audition at the studio.
Suddenly, a familiar name greeted her eyes, surprising her.
Shangguan Rouxue!
Wasnt she pregnant? Shouldnt she stay at home and rest? Why was she still in the candidate list?
She had never been in any big movies or tv-series yet she became a candidate for the leading female role. She must have pulled a trick.
She was not sure as to what methods had Shangguan Rouxue used to have influenced this professional and experienced director.
Xu Feng, who was sitting next to Shangguan Ning, had been associated with shooting and production of many movies and tv-series. He used to be a famous script writer once but was now too old to follow the crew around. Thus he had taken up the role of Director of the Department of Media at Jingsheng Enterprise.
Xu Feng also frowned at the sight of the candidate list.
There were several new actresses in the list and Shangguan Rouxue was undoubtedly the one that attracted most attention.
She was the sweet hostess of A City, but she had never worked in any movies before. Her acting experience was almost next to zero.
It would be of great risk if a new actress was used for movies and tv-series. A top-notch director needed to keep a strict criteria for selection of a new actress, else the box office result would not be at par with the movies which were done by famous actors.
Although Shangguan Rouxue was not unknown in the hosting field, yet her reputation was only limited in A City. She was not even as domestically famous as those deputy directors of Jingsheng Enterprise who often showed up in front of the media.
There were five actresses at the audition. All of them looked very nervous, probably because theycked experience. But they all acted well.
Shangguan Rouxue was thest one on audition. She was very beautifully dressed and her dressing style was different from how she was usually dressed. After all, the leading female role in the script was a capablewyer rather than a sweet, silly young girl.
Although she didnt have any experience of acting, yet because of her experience of standing in front of a camera all year round, she had a good presence. Her exquisite face lookedposed and she seemed to be sufficiently prepared so that she spoke the lines smoothly and even added some extra lines for herself.
For one instant, the other four candidates paled in front of her, and everyone thought that she was going to get the leading female role.
After watching the audition, Shangguan Ning finally understood why the candidates were all new actresses.
Was this the trick Shangguan Rouxue had used?
By standing in a circle of inferiority, she could look outstanding.
But what Shangguan Ning hadnt expected was that she was capable enough to influence the director who found four new actresses just to put her into the spotlight!
Xu Feng, who had been dissatisfied with the previous performances, became quite content at the moment.
He didnt expect that Shangguan Rouxue could act so well by releasing and restraining her emotions at free will and that she could look so good in front of cameras. For some reason, he kind of approved this actress for the leading female role.
When the other actresses were waiting for the result behind the stage, Shangguan Rouxue came to the judge area and chatted with the director and the scriptwriter happily.
They exchanged a couple of words before the director took the scriptwriter and Shangguan Rouxue to Shangguan Ning.
The director was famous nationwide, and also an old friend of Xu Feng. He greeted Xue Feng proficiently and then turned to Shangguan Ning who was in a higher position than Xu Feng.
Shangguan Rouxue who was following behind the director, was surprised to see Shangguan Ning here.
She felt ufortable, but still showed an expression of gentleness and kindness, pretending as if she didnt know Shangguan Ning.
Xu Feng was a smart person. His director, Deputy-President Liang had many more years of experience than him at the Enterprise. Liang was a capable person yet he still addressed Shangguan Ning as someone of the same level. He would even ask Shangguan Ning for advice on many business affairs in the department. Therefore, he would turn to Shangguan Ning for advice first before he made any decision, subconsciously treating her as the leader.
Shangguan Ning was the assistant to the President, and many things were reported to the President through her. Therefore, she couldnt be regarded as an ordinary assistant who could be ordered around. The previous Presidents assistant, Lu Qing, was still respected by everyone at the enterprise although he was still an assistant. Even the deputy presidents treated him very nicely.
Seeing the director turning to Shangguan Ning, Xue Feng smiled and said. Director Zheng, this is Shangguan Ning, the Presidents assistant of our enterprise, the main person responsible for the production of our movie.It is her responsibility to report everything to the enterprise in the aspect of fund.
He put it very clearly C it was Shangguan Ning who controlled the investment of the movie.
The director understood exactly what Xu Feng meant. He hadnt expected that the productionpany would have entrusted such a young woman to look over the tasks.
But however young she was, she was in control of the fund, meaning that she had a powerful background and ought not to be ignored.
The directors attitude changed instantly. He smiled and shook hands with Shangguan Ning courteously before saying, We n to start shooting next month. Hope that we can have a happy coboration with Ms. Shangguan!
Shangguan Ning smiled and said softly. We believe that our coboration will be sessful, since Director Zheng is indeed an experienced director!
After exchanging some words with her, the director presented the scriptwriter and Shangguan Rouxue to her.
This is the female whom we have selected for the leading role. Shangguan Rouxue is a famous hostess of A City. She is popr and should be able to bring a great deal of box office revenue.
As producers, Jingsheng Enterprise had invested 200 million yuan in the movie and what they cared about most of all, was the revenue. They would instantly recall the investment if the estimated revenue was projected to be unviable.
When Shangguan Ning was transferred to the Department of Media, Lu Qing had nned to allow her to do some practice so that she would get familiar with the affairs and then handle the development of media business at the Enterpriseter.
She certainly treated this 200-million investment very cautiously. But apart from the potential revenue, she also cared about her own mood.
She threw a look at Shangguan Rouxue and said, Director Zheng, I dont think that Shangguan Rouxue fits the leading female role well. Please get someone else instead!

After Shangguan Ning said what she had to, Shangguan Rouxue felt light headed, as if she would faint.
She had put in way too much effort on this movie. She had assumed that everything was settled and that she was the obvious choice for the leading role of the female protagonist, in the movie. What she didnt expect was that Shangguan Ning would interfere halfway through and request the director to rece her with someone else.
Wasnt she just an ordinary employee at Jingsheng Enterprise? All of a sudden, how did she be the go-to person for all decisions that were to be made by the production house?
Both the director and Xu Feng, turned to Shangguan Ning in surprise. Neither of them had any idea why would she feel this way. They were wondering that maybe Shangguan Ning and Shangguan Rouxue were rted to each other in some way, bearing in mind the fact that both girls shared their surname, otherwise, what were the chances of two people sharing a surname that was fairly distinct, without being rted.
The director jumped at Shangguan Rouxues defence instantly, It is true that Xue hasnt done any movies before, but her acting prowess ismendable. She is also very famous, so her face already has a connect with the viewers. I wonder why Ms. Shangguan doesnt want to cast her?
He sounded gentle, but apparently he was quite upset. He thought that Shangguan Ning, who didnt know anything about direction, was here just to dole out orders. She never gave him any credit, considering that he was the director of the film and it was his opinion that mattered.
He was quick to realise that Shangguan Ning was the appointed representative of the investors. In ordance to her job profile, she absolutely had the right to rece the leading female protagonist.
He expected that Shangguan Ning would at least give him a reasonable exnation, otherwise, he would see to it that Shangguan Rouxue achieve super stardom, even if he had to quit this movie and start another one.
How long is the shooting period? Shangguan Ning asked. It was a random question, totally out of context with the current topic of discussion.
The director was startled but he still replied, The preproduction will take one more month and it will take another six months before it is fullypleted.
Oh, half a year? Then, how long has this candidate been pregnant for? Will she be shooting for the movie with a protruding belly? Or have I read the script wrong? I thought this movie was about the younger generation and their fight to follow their dreams. I had no idea that this was a family saga?
The director was astounded at this revtion C Shangguan Rouxue was pregnant?
Rouxue, is that true?! Shangguan Rouxue had promised to him numerous times that she would not get pregnant till they were not done shooting. She also gave him her word that she would not dy the shoot for any reason. She was pregnant already, but wasnt she unmarried yet? How uncivilised of her, thought the director.
The director was now on the backfoot. He had been a director for more than two decades and he had never been tricked by an actress.
Shangguan Rouxue looked very pale. She forced herself to reply with a smile. Mr. Director, this is not true. Thisdy has misunderstood. I am not pregnant, I assure you of myplete dedication, until the movie ispleted.
Xue Feng wasnt as gullible. He saw through Shangguan Rouxues expressions. He understood that she was not telling the truth.
He had no idea how Shangguan Ning knew of Shangguan Rouxues pregnancy, but that was not important. What was important was that now they were all in a soup. If she was really pregnant, then it was impossible for her toplete the shooting. Changing the female lead, halfway through the movie shoot would prove to be a disastrous decision, financially. Apart from the mary loss, they would also have toe up with an excuse to give to Deputy-President Liang.
They were lucky that Shangguan Ning visited them today, otherwise they would have been taken for a ride by this seemingly docile woman.
Director Zheng, we have had many coborations in the past, and I rmended you to the enterprise because I trust you and admire your professionalism. Im sorry to add that if you are not even aware of such important matters pertaining to the main female lead in your uing movie, then I think that maybe we need to rediscuss the terms of our coboration.
Xu Feng was speechless. Anyone would get very furious if they ran into such a problem, shortly before they were to resume shooting the movie.
Star Media that belongs to our enterprise, represents many experienced actresses who are equally talented and famous. They are internationally renowned and admired. They may be more expensive, but I would rather prefer Director Zheng to select one of them, as they are rtively more ethical. We are happy to provide additional financial resources, to back your choice.
He then turned towards Shangguan Ning for her suggestion on the matter. What do you think, Shangguan Ning?
Shangguan Ning nodded in agreement. For the movie, we will only choose the best, Director Zheng. You are a prestigious director and we will certainly use an equally prestigious actress for this project. A lethalbination like it, is sure to pull in the crowds. Honestly that would be the very reason why I wouldnt pick Shangguan Rouxue as the main female lead, even if she wasnt pregnant. If you still insist on casting her, then I think that we would need to recall our investment.
Her words were full of confidence and conviction that came from being sure of what she wanted. She was someone who would definitely walk the talk. Xu Feng was quite impressed with Ning and her no-nonsense attitude.
He always thought that Shangguan Ning wasnt apetitive woman. She came across as someone who had a very gentle personality. She would not be able to handle a film crew. He didnt expect her to be so intimidating!
Director Xu, your suggestion is excellent. Our Department of Media will make a list of actresses for the director to choose from. Only those actresses who suit the role will be part of the list. We have also cultivated many new actors. If the Director would like to use new actors, he may choose from that list. My suggestion is that we use the new actors for supporting roles only. For the main lead we need someone who is already established and has a good body of work to back them.
Xue Feng answered instantly, I agree.
What Shangguan Ning had said made perfect sense. It was impossible for the Director to find a fault with her logical suggestion. Instead, her point of view had even made the director question his own line of thought.
He nodded and said, Then we will go with your suggestion. It was understood that the director was speaking to Shangguan Ning, even though he refused to look at her. We will use an actress who is better fit for this role and hold another audition for it, in the next few days.
They settled the matter amongst themselves, totally ignoring Shangguan Rouxue.
Rouxue was so upset that she clenched her fists in anger. Her fingernails pierced into the delicate skin of her palm, yet she felt no pain. All she could do was watch them bump her off a role that she had only dreamed of. All of this because of one sentence said by Shangguan Ning and Rouxue could do nothing to undo the damage. Only she knew of how many people she had to plead with, even beg, in order to get an opportunity to even audition for the role. Now that she had been selected, her joy knew no bounds, but Shangguan Ning had taken it all away from her, in a jiffy.
Seeing that the group were done with their discussion and were about to leave, Rouxue went up to Ning and said in a pitiful tone, Sister, please dont leave. I was wrong to have been spoiled, but I cherish this opportunity very much. Please dont use this movie as a means to settle your personal vendetta against me. You can beat me or swear at me all you like, and I wont say a word in protest but please dont ruin my entire life.
Both Xu Feng and Director were surprised. So Shangguan Rouxue and Shangguan Ning were sisters after all.
Judging from what Shangguan Rouxue had just said, it seemed as if Shangguan Ning didnt like her too much.
Shangguan Ning turned towards Shangguan Rouxue. She yed the role of a victim, to perfection. She looked sad and innocent. Shangguan Ning ignored the looks on the faces Xu Feng and Director, because she was used to people sympathising with Shangguan Rouxue.
Shangguan Ning had seen this drama innumerable times in the past. She was calm and maintained a professional attitude. She said, I had wanted to spare you our little discussion but I see that now you have left me with no choice. All your efforts at showing me as the viin will go to waste if I dont act a bit more intimidating. I mean the situation demands it. So here goes...!
Director Xu and Director Zheng, you two have heard that I am avenging my personal vendetta against Shangguan Rouxue by ousting her from the movie. So now let me make it very clear. Jingsheng Enterprise will absolutely not back any project that uses Shangguan Rouxue as the female lead. Please make note of that!
She continued, Also, Director Xu, isnt it true that our Enterprise is still in coboration with most popr TV channels? Please make it known to them that if Shangguan Rouxue is not reced from all TV soaps, with immediate effect, then all of our coborations with that particr channel will be terminated.

Xu Feng didnt expect that Shangguan Ning, who was generally so polite and well mannered, would say something like this. Although she had admitted that she was seeking revenge from Shangguan Rouxue, at least she chose to be open about it. She had nothing to hide.
That made her seem less sinister. Instead, she looked like the better person between the two, for admitting her shorings.
That made her seem intimidating, so now everyone knew that she meant business. No one dare mess with her.
Everyone started to suspect Shangguan Rouxue, wondering what on earth was she hiding. What had she done that Shangguan Ning couldnt even be bothered to conceal her dislike for her.
Shangguan Rouxue felt so helpless. There was nothing she could do to salvage the situation.
Shangguan Ning had not only ruined Rouxues only golden opportunity of ying the lead actress, but now Ning was all set to go ahead and sabotage her career as a television hostess, as well.
Who was Ning to make all these decisions on behalf of Jingsheng Enterprise?
This was uneptable behaviour.
Shangguan Ning was only an assistant. On what ground was she trying to show her authority, especially since she was such a low level employee? What power did she have? Wasnt she scared of her actions being reported to the senior management?
Shangguan Rouxue suddenly felt like she had lost everything that she had worked so hard to achieve, as the crew members started to leave. The director, scriptwriter and the crew members, who had capitalised so much from her poprity, now treated her like a stranger. They rejected her without a second thought.
The crew members gossipped amongst themselves and gave her sideways nces. Some bits of conversation were even loud enough for Rouxue to be able to listen in.
Didnt know that she is pregnant! Why didnt she tell us anything? She should have at least informed the director. What are we going to do if her belly starts to show, in the middle of the shoot? Our female lead doesnt get pregnant in the story!
Thats right. But isnt she single? Or maybe she is married but is trying to conceal it. Or maybe she got pregnant before getting married.
I saw her having a drink with the director some days ago. She drank so much alcohol. Gosh, doesnt she know that one mustnt have alcohol when one is pregnant. And she looks so innocent..who knew she would turn out to be such a hypocrite..
Maybe the Director was fooled by her facade too. Look, even the Director has refused to associate himself with her, henceforth. There are so many actresses who want to work with us, I wonder what tricks did she have to use, to convince our Director pick her over everyone else.
Exactly! She isnt that good-looking anyway. Look at the woman who represents the production house. She is much better-looking than the woman we chose for the lead role. Our Director should have cast her instead.
...
Shangguan Rouxues felt like she couldnt breathe, as she heard the crew insult her.
She had never lost to Shangguan Ning since they were little. Until recently, it had always been Shangguan Ning who was gossipped about, whilst she was the one who got all the praise. She was used to being the winner.
But today, Rouxue had faced bitter defeat. That too, on a public tform.
Why did everything start to change after Shangguan Ning returned to China? Why was everything that rightfully belonged to Rouxue, be denied to her?
Xie Zhuojun had refused to answer her calls now. There was nothing left for him to say. His love for her was not what it used to be. Shangguan Rouxue realised that had she not been pregnant, he would not have hesitated to call off their engagement. Even now, after learning of her pregnancy, he had never bothered to call her and check on her health. Rouxue had a strong feeling that Xie Zhoujun wouldnt be averse to the idea of aborting the child!
Her mother Yang Wenshu was getting increasingly difficult to live with, after her face was ruined by Shangguan Ning. Even though she used a lot of makeup to mask her facial scars, they were still visible. She had lost confidence and was unhappy from within. She refused to meet anyone.
Her father Shangguan Zheng also used the child as a means to force Xie Dongfeng to keep his official position. The love he had towards Rouxue hadpletely disappeared. He only chose to check on the well being of the baby, as if it was something he couldnt afford to lose.
Rouxues inws who used to love her so much were now only pretending to put up a strong public image of a happy family. In the confines of their house, they kept picking on her by saying that if she wanted to marry Xie Zhoujun, she mustply with Family Xies traditions. She mustnt think of her career now. She was expected to be a housewife and devote time to her husband. Also, they did not want her to prioritise Family Shangguan over Family Xie. The couple didnt want a daughter-inw who was used as a trading chip, by Shangguan Zheng.
Her friends had deserted her, one after another for some reason. They didnt even want to greet her when they bumped into her. Even Ji Lili, who was currently abroad, refused to answer her calls any more.
Her career as a news hostess had also taken a serious beating, because the channel had already started to cultivate new talent, all of whom were good looking and well trained. This was exactly why she was eager to get into the film industry. Sadly, the only opportunity she had got, was ruined, thanks to her step sister.
Shangguan Rouxues fear made her incapable of thinking straight. She was used to having control over most situations. Now she was no longer in charge of her life. She felt helpless and frustrated.
Everything she had gained with her scheming ways C her fame, her work, her poprity, was slipping out of her grasp.
No, she mustnt let Shangguan Ning get the better of her. Shangguan Rouxue had to stand up and fight. She was going to reim all that belonged to her!
Shangguan Rouxue fiercely bit her lip, and the copper taste of blood stimted her tongue, making her full of willingness to fight!
She sat up attentively at the sight of the iing call, and said in a gentle voice, Hello, Deputy Leader. This is Xue.
A middle-aged mans voice spoke from the other side of the phone. He sounded serious and professional. Shangguan Rouxue, on ount of your recent ill health, the channel has decided that you should take a years sabbatical. Someone else will fill up for you in your absence. When you are fit enough to resume work a yearter, well put you into the next avable profile.
Shangguan Rouxue was stupefied. She said, No, Sir. I dont need a sabbatical. Please let me continue working in my current profile.
Shangguan Rouxue was still not done saying what she wanted to but the Deputy Leader disconnected the line without paying any heed to her.
Shangguan Rouxue shivered. Her phone fell out of her hand. How did the management at the TV channel learn about all this?
The fact that she hadnt been feeling well and that she was pregnant, were well guarded secrets.
Asking her to take one year off would be equivalent to asking her to resign. A sabbatical at this stage of her career would spell doom for her.She would have no credibility left in the market.
Shangguan Ning had just warned the director that Jingsheng Enterprise wasnt going to continue with their coboration with the TV channel and within the hour, the Deputy Leader called her and asked her to resign.
How could that be possible? When did things get so bad?
Why would Jingsheng Enterprise stop coborating with one of the most prestigious TV channels, only because Shanggua Ning said so? The TV Station and JingShing enterprise worked on a quid pro quo agreement. They aired many advertisements every year, for Jingsheng Enterprise and all of these ads were done free of cost.
So basically Jingsheng Enterprise abandoned a mutually fruitful coboration only because Shangguan Ning disliked her.
The way things were going recently, it seemed as if her entire life was going to be ruined by Shangguan Ning. All the effort that Shangguan Rouxue had put in, to get where she was, was going up in mes, right before her eyes.
Shangguan Rouxue copsed onto the freezing marble floor.

When Shangguan Ning returned back to the office, it took Lu Qing no time to learn of what she had done.
He patted her shoulders like a parent and a smile hovered over his normally serious face. He spoke in an admiring tone, You have done well. You are the assistant of the President, the face of the President. You should be intimidating when you are representing the President. No matter whatever you do, you should always remember that you are absolutely right!
Shangguan Ning hadnt been worried about what Jing Yichen would think, because she knew that he would support her no matter what she did. Even if she chose to demolish the entire building, he would agree without frowning.
But she had been worried about the serious and formidable Lu Qing.
He was a man who was scrupulous in separating public from private interests, and he would never take personal revenge by taking advantage of his own position. Therefore, she had been worried that after he knew what she did, he would scold her for being selfish.
Unexpectedly, however, he supported what she had done.
Seeing the surprised face on her, Lu Qing couldnt help but smile. Did you assume that I will me you for taking personal revenge? Well, it depends on what it is. If you had used up all the investment money for the movie, then I would not have hesitated for even a second to scold you and would have reported you to the President. But you were just being formidable and your decision waspletely correct. It was Director Zhengs fault to have used a pregnant new actress and if it had not been for you, our enterprise might have suffered a loss worth tens of millions of yuan.
You can be bossier and more intimidating outside thepany, because Jingsheng will always be your home bay. You could have scolded Director Zheng as well, so that he would learn how to be careful when they want to have coboration with us in the future and how not to lie to us! You should learn from the President for this point. He is quite skilled at badgering someone and being bossy. I have never met anyone who is bossier than him after being in this position for more than twenty years.
Shangguan Ning got a little confused. Was that what Jing Yichen was like? But she had never seen him that bossy and unreasonable.
Oh! There was that one time, one only time when he, despite what she thought and how much fever she was having, had dragged her to the Civil Affairs Office to obtain the marriage certificate.
A smile hovered over Shangguan Nings face and she was happy to hear what Lu Qing told her. She said softly, Thank you for supporting me. I need to learn more from you in the future!
Seeing that she understood what he meant, Lu Qing nodded and turned back to the business affairs.
Jing Yichen got to know about Shangguan Nings personal revenge soon after it happened.
Tiger asked him in concern, Master, will Family Xie allow her to marry their son if Shangguan Rouxue loses her job?
Jing Yichen said calmly, No worries. She should have lost her job long ago. She is being kept alive for Ning to take revenge, otherwise she would have lost her life long ago! Tell Liang Fushi at the Department of Media that no matter what the Lady does, he must obey her unconditionally, otherwise he would be cleaning the restroom for Jingsheng Enterprise!
Liang Fushi was Xu Fengs direct leader, one of the Deputy-Presidents of the enterprise. He was in charge of media and public rtions, and one of the oldest employees at Jingsheng Enterprise.
When Jing Yichen had taken over the enterprise, he was one of the most sceptical ones. At the beginning, he had even imed that if Jing Yichen became the President, he would go and clean the restroom instead. But after he saw what Jing Yichen had achieved, he had changed his attitude. He had started to respect Jing Yichen and treated Shangguan Ning exceptionally nicely, hoping that she could say something good about him in front of Jing Yichen so that he would forget how rebellious he had been before.
But Jing Yichen was a man who remembered everything. He would often mention the phrase cleaning restroom to scare him even at various points in time.
Therefore, Liang Fushi shivered with cold sweat after Tiger told Liang Fushi what Jing Yichen had said.
Liang Fushi was a 50 years old man, and had been working at the Department of Public Rtions for long. Currently, he was in charge of Department of Media as well, so he was skilled at recognising gossip more than anyone else.
When Tiger told him to obey Assistant Shangguan Ning unconditionally, he sensed something special there.
As far as he knew, Jing Yichen was a married man. He had even asked Lu Qing about it earlier. But Jing Yichen was a man who lived quite clean, just like his father who didnt get close to women easily. Also, almost all men from Family Jing tended to be devoted to one single woman except for Jing Yiran who was different from them.
Jing Yichen treated Shangguan Ning far better than he ought to have. Also, Liang Fushi discovered that when it came to Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen would respond quickly and decisively.
A man like Jing Yichen would not fall for an assistant very easily. That he cared so much about Shangguan Ning meant only one thing C Shangguan Ning was more than his assistant.
Liang Fushi felt that Shangguan Ning must be Jing Yichens wife.
He was surprised by his own bold spection. Then he started tough in his office alone, thinking that he had stumbled upon a huge secret.
He immediately got in touch with the TV station which had reced Shangguan Rouxue with a new person.
Jing Yichen hadnt tried to hide his rtionship with Shangguan Ning. That was why he sent such instructions to Liang Fushi.
He never had the intention of concealing him marrying Shangguan Ning. It had always been Shangguan Ning who didnt want to cause any trouble so that she didnt allow him to tell anyone else. Otherwise, the entire Enterprise would have known about it already!
He wished that everyone would know that Shangguan Ning was his wife, and the future mother to his children.
Jing Yichen couldnt help but get a bit annoyed when he thought about children. Why wasnt Shangguan Ning showing any signs of pregnancy after he tried so hard for so long?
Could it have been because of his posture or the frequency?
It seemed that he needed to try several more postures tonight.
When Shangguan Ning came out of the enterprise building around 5 after work, a very inconspicuous ck Volkswagen was parked in front of her.
A handsome and noble man with a bunch of roses came out of the car and smiled at her. My wife, I am here to drive you home!
Shangguan Ning took the bunch of flowers in surprise and her heart was instantly filled with happiness and positive energy.
She wanted to fling herself into his arms, but stopped instead and looked around consciously because she was still standing outside the enterprise building where they might be seen.
Jing Yichen got very displeased. He walked up and scooped Shangguan Ning into his arms feeling her soft body and its fragrance around him.
Worried that their colleagues might bump into them, Shangguan Ning immediately pushed him into the inconspicuous ck Volkswagen.
What if she was discovered? There would be a huge explosion in the enterprise the following day. No, she needed to be careful and didnt want to be stared at by other people as if she were a monster.
The moment they sat in the car, Jing Yichen pressed her against the seat and gave her a deep kiss.
Shnagguan Ning was slightly out of breath. She pushed him away as she said lovingly, No kissing. What if someone sees us?
Jing Yichen frowned unhappily. What is it? Am I breaking thew to kiss my own wife? Anyone who dares to speak ill of us will get out of the enterprise the following day!
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter seeing his bossy behavior.
Lu Qing was right. Jing Yichen was indeed bossy and unreasonable!

Shangguan Ning looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to this inconspicuous car, so she gave a quick kiss on Jing Yichens lips and then wrapped her arms around his neck as she whispered. Werent you on a business trip? What are you doing here?
Jing Yichen got happy when she kissed him of her own ord.
With his hands over Shangguan Nings slender waist, he put his forehead against hers and said in a low voice. I missed you...
He kissed her soft, red lips and asked in a low, sexy voice. Did you miss me, baby?
Shangguan Ning felt that when she was with Jing Yichen, she would experience intense love and her heart would throb very fast. Her body heated up, making her feel shy and embarrassed.
His lips felt cool, making her shiver a little bit. On the other hand, his hands were warm, sending electrical current into her body. His voice was charming enough to fight all her resistance since the first day that she had met him...
I missed you too...
Her voice was very, very soft, full of love and longing.
Her words made Jing Yichen want to push her in the car seat right away so that he could pound himself into her.
With one hand over her shoulders, the other on the steering wheel, he started the car and drove towards home.
Leaning her head against his broad shoulders, Shangguan Ning felt secured.
I did a bad thing today. Do you want to hear about it?
A smile hovered over Jing Yichens face. He knew what she wanted to say but still asked. Oh? Who was so unlucky to get your eyes on her?
Shangguan Ning didnt have any idea that what she had done, was known to Jing Yichen already and that Jing Yichen had helped her with it already. She fiddled with the crystal button on Jing Yichens clothes and said, It was Shangguan Rouxue? I dont like her, so I threw her out today.
Oh, the one who you forced to jump the sea was her? Didnt she die of the jump? Unfortunately, seems that I will have to apply more force her topletely submerge.
Shangguan Ning was amused by Jing Yichens words and the heavy feeling inside her heart disappeared.
She suddenly understood that Jing Yichen knew about her and Shangguan Rouxue. That Shangguan Rouxue was pregnant had also been told by him.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but smile brightly. She was lucky to be protected by her man so well.
Well, she lost the leading female role because of me, and do you know how horrible she looked! I didnt know that stepping on her would feel so good. I should have pushed her to the ground and really stepped on her.
Dont worry, you can step on whoever you want in whichever way you want. You can do whatever you want, because I will be the one who fills up the gaps for you!
Jing Yichens bossy words spoken in an indulgent tone made Shangguan Ning feel that she had be a princess from a fairy tale. All of her hurt and unpleasant feelings from the olden days was gone. He took such good care of her.
It was because of his pampering that she became confident and happy.
She was always rxed when she was with him. Nothing bothered her and what remained was only peace and happiness.
Jing Yichen could tell that Shangguan Ning was in a happy mood. Her thoughts and ideas were written clearly on her face which he could read very easily.
His mood also became good because of hers. He smiled and then stepped on the elerator, dashing away whilst Shangguan Ning screamed.
Shangguan Ning spent a very wonderful and unforgettable evening arranged by Jing Yichen.
He was not a romantic man, but after they got married, he would surprise Shangguan Ning every now and then. Every time he came back from a business trip, he would bring her gifts. This time, he brought her a limited edition SWAROVSKI crystal bracelet with the abbreviation letters of her name inscribed on it.
The following day, Shangguan Ning went to work wearing the new bracelet. She ran into Mi Xiaoxiao in the tea room who admired the lovely bracelet.
Beautiful! This colorful crystal bracelet suits your pale skin. The Pre... your husband is good at choosing gifts. Very rare indeed.
Mi Xiaoxiao swallowed down the phrase the President, and then she stretched out her hands to pinch Shangguan Nings smooth face and said with a smirk. I remember that you said you dont like jewelry when we went shoppingst time, but now you are wearing it.
Shangguan Ning smiled without saying a word.
It was true that she didnt like those messy things on her, because she thought that they were a hassle and would hurt the hands.
But she liked what Jing Yichen had given her. She wore it because it was given by him and hence was beautiful.
Maybe that was what the phrase love me, love my dog meant.
She knew that Jing Yichen also liked what she gave him.
She had seen a nice tie in the store the other day, and bought it for him. Although it was not the brand he often used, yet he wore it for days without wanting to change it.
Shangguan Ning smiled as she touched the shining bracelet on her wrist. Then she heard Mi Xiaoxiao saying in surprise as she looked outside the window. Look, Shangguan, isnt that man who we ran into when we were shoppingst time? What is he doing here?
Shangguan Ning got startled and took a look at the window. It turned to be Xie Zhuojun!
What was he doing here again?
She saw Xie Zhuojun getting out of his Land Rover car in a dark blue suit and entering the gates of Jingsheng.
Soon, her phone rang and Annas voice came from the other side of the phone. Assistant Shangguan, a Mr. Xie is here asking for you.
Shangguan Ning really didnt want to be involved with Xie Zhuojun any more and she had told him many times not toe visit her any more. But it seemed that he had be addicted to seeing her!
Wasnt he getting married with Shangguan Rouxue? What was he doing here when he was supposed to get ready for their luxurious wedding?
Or, he was trying to dump her when Shangguan Rouxue had lost all of her glory?
How ridiculous he was to have imed her as his true love!
If Shangguan Ning didnt go downstairs, Xie Zhuojun would keep waiting in the guest room. He would not leave the ce, and it may make Anna think that there was something going on between them.
To try and save herself from unnecessary rumours, Shangguan Ning eventually decided to meet him in the guest room.
Xie Zhuojun was dressed in a tailor-made suit with exquisite material, but it looked quite baggy on him. Apparently, he had be much thinner recently.
The handsome and pampered son of Family Xie looked tired and it looked as if he had aged by 10 years overnight.

The fact of the matter was that Xie Zhuojun already knew the true face of Shangguan Rouxue and was struggling to get away from her.
He was just finding it difficult to let go because Shangguan Rouxue was so tricky and he himself was so fickle.
Shangguan Ning didnt feel sorry for him. He had been so sure of his choice when he had decided to choose Shangguan Rouxue over her, all those years ago. He had been so determined to end their engagement back then. He didnt care about anyone elses feelings and he behaved as if he would not be able to live if Shangguan Rouxue wasnt with him.
Cut to the present, he was already regretting his decision. All this even after he had gotten what he wanted!
Xie Zhuojun felt dizzy at the sight of Shangguan Nings pretty face. She was wless, in character and in her looks. How had he not noticed all this before? Was it because Shangguan Ning was like a pearl that was covered in dust back then or was it because he was just blinded by his own selfish motives?
She had blossomed into a confident young woman. She was no longer the immature teenager that she used to be. Her true personality had begun to emerge. She was unstoppable.
Here was an amazing woman, he had pushed away from himself, on his own ord.
Xie Zhuojun found it very difficult to get over the bitterness that stirred inside his heart.
Seeing that he was staring at her in silence, she couldnt help but frown as she asked calmly, Mr. Xie,is there anything you want to tell me? I am a busy woman and I have no time to watch you staring at me. I hope that this is thest time that you will visit this ce.
Mr. Xie...
Hope that this is thest time ...
Her words and her tone wounded him further. She sounded so distant and she looked so indifferent. She was telling him in clear words that she didnt want him here.
Xie Zhuojun mumbled, Ning, I... am sorry... that I misunderstood you before!
After Shangguan Ning had pped Xie Zhuojun,thest time he visited her at Jingsheng, she felt no anger or resentment towards him. All she felt was indifference.
Shangguan Ning didnt feel it worth her while, to be angry with a man like Xie Zhuojun.
Therefore, she didnt feel any sense of achievement or happiness, when she heard him repenting.
You have apologized to me before and you dont need to apologize any more. If you are here just to say sorry to me, then you can leave because I have already heard you.
Shangguan Ning didnt sound emotional or unsure. She didnt sound furious or relieved, as Xie Zhuojun had imagined her to be.
Didnt she care anything about him anymore? Didnt she care about how he felt?
Ning, dont you like me? Because it seems as if you dont care about me at all...
Shangguan Ning didnt expect him to ask such a question. Had he lost the plot after being tricked by Shangguan Rouxue?
She said coldly, Xie Zhuojun, you give yourself too much importance. I am telling you today, in simple words, that I dont like you. I was forced to get engaged with you, because your parents and my good father threatened me and my uncle. They said that if I didnt marry you, they would falsely implicate my uncle and send him into prison, under charges of fraud.
Xie Zhuojun was appalled.
So that was the truth of everything!
He had never known that Shangguan Ning had agreed to get engaged with him, because of this terrible reason.
His mother had always maintained that Shangguan Ning got engaged with him and took care of him, because she liked him.
How could this be possible? Why was everyone lying to him? Why was he always thest one to learn the truth!
He felt as if he was stuck in this horrible web of lies, spun by all his dear ones, ever since he had recovered from hisa, four years ago.
Xie Zhuojun had no courage to ask Ning what he was about to ask her now, but he simply had to know. Werent you heart-broken after I broke off our engagement? If you didnt like me, how could you have felt so much pain that you even left home to stay abroad for four years, so that you could get over me?
Besides, going abroad for studies wasnt something that I intended to do. It was Shangguan Rouxue who made it all happen. She kneeled down in front of your parents and begged me to leave! She had even got my ne tickets ready for me. Honestly, I was actually quite happy to leave. You two disgusted me and I didnt care about my family, who were equally ruthless. So now you know, I went abroad not because I couldnt get over you but because the circumstances were such.
Xie Zhuojun knees gave way and he copsed onto the sofa in distress.
He wasnt sure how any more such truths had Shangguan Rouxue concealed from him. The closer he got to the truth, the more pain he felt at being cheated.
Everything was changing. Shangguan Rouxue was changing, and so was Shangguan Ning.
Some things once lost, were gone forever. One such thing was Shangguan Nings love for him. She used to care about him and take care of him. She had put him on a pedestal and worshipped him. She put him before her, always, but now all that was gone.
Shangguan Ning didnt feel good either, when Xie Zhuojun spoke of the past.
Every time she met Xie Zhuojun, she was reminded of what a pushover she had been. How she had been treated like a doormat by those who were the most dear to her. No one noticed how much she cared about them or how much she had invested into the rtionship. In this regard, Xie Zhuojun had been the most ruthless.
In fact, how he behaved right now only made Shangguan Ning think even less of him!
Wasnt he deeply in love with Shangguan Rouxue? And werent they kneeling down in front of her, holding hands, begging her to approve of their love?
She did approve of their love, and now he was sorry?
Nothing came easily!
Also, congrattions to you. You are going to be a father soon. Youd better go back and take care of the pregnant woman, otherwise she will have to find other means to earn her living. You are so irresponsible that you are ok with letting a pregnant woman, who is already unwell, beg and plead for a role in a movie. If this were to be public knowledge, people would assume that Family Xie are too poor to be able to fend for their own child.
Shangguan Ning went on to provide all details of what had transpired between both the sisters, that morning. She told him about how Shangguan Rouxue was trying to manipte her way into the film industry. She had correctly guessed that Xie Zhuojun would not know about all this.
When Shangguan Ning had expressed her desire of working towards being a professional tennis yer to Xie Zhoujuns parents, four years ago, they had disapproved. They had thought that Ning was too outgoing to be a good wife. That Shangguan Rouxue wanted to get into the entertainment industry was definitely something that they wouldnt approve of.
Till Shangguan Ning was engaged to Xie Zhoujun, Wang Lu was very nice to her and even treated Ning like her own daughter, but after Xie Zhuojun broke off the engagement with her, she was apletely different person.
Shangguan Ning had gauged her correctly. When Xie Zhuojun stopped caring about Shangguan Rouxue, Wang Lu wouldve stopped being nice to her too.
Xie Zhuojun looked up in surprise,Sorry? What did you just say? Xue on movie set? That is impossible. She had promised us that she was never going to be associated with the entertainment industry.
Oh, then that is good. Since you arent alright with her being a part of the entertainment industry, then my actions have helped your cause. I have not only ensured that she doesnt work in any movie henceforth, I have also had her fired from her current job of a television presenter.
The channel has asked her to take a years sabbatical. Now, she can be Mrs. Xie, wholeheartedly and take care of you for the rest of your life.
Shangguan Ning had just gone on to describe Xues worst nightmare, in a very calm voice.
He sprang up from the sofa all of a sudden and jumped to Xues defence. What did you do to Xue?C he asked.
Shangguan Ning smiled. Want to hear more stories of how vicious I am? Then ask your fiance! She will give you all the details. Hopefully then, you will be able to tell the difference between who is right and who is wrong. Who is lying and who is speaking the truth.
It was as if Shangguan Ning was sure that Shangguan Rouxue would portray her to be the viin. Shangguan Ning didnt want to waste time and energy exining anything to Xie Zhuojun, because no matter what she said, he would definitely defend Shangguan Rouxue. He would always think that everyone had taken advantage of his darling Xue.

Xie Zhuojun knew how much Shangguan Rouxue cared about her job. She would have never asked for a sabbatical. So maybe what Shangguan Ning was saying might be true C she really had made Shangguan Rouxue lose her job!
Xie Zhuojun became so furious about Shangguan Nings behaviour, that he didnt hate Shangguan Rouxue for lying to him any more.
He was a soft-hearted person, and he still had feelings to Shangguan Rouxue. Even if her true identity had been revealed, he had only hated her for being pretentious and for lying to him. He had never wanted her to lose all that she loved.
He left Jingsheng Enterprise immediately. He found Shangguan Rouxue at Family Shangguan House. He wanted to ask her if she really went to a movie set, to plead with them for a role, while she was carrying his child. He wanted to know if it was true that Shangguan Ning had truly made her lose her job as a television hostess.
He couldnt believe that Shangguan Ning would be so heartless!
The moment Xie Zhuojun entered the house, Shangguan Rouxue spotted him, from where she stood, on the second floor. She hurried downstairs and threw herself into his arms. She said sweetly, Finally you are here, Zhuojun! I thought you were too angry toe and visit me.
She was very happy that Xie Zhuojun still loved her and cared about her.
He hade to see her the moment he got to know that she was feeling unwell.
She had nothing left and she mustnt lose Xie Zhuojun!
Xie Zhuojun pushed Shangguan Rouxue away from him and asked seriously, Xue, did you shoot for a movie?
His words made Shangguan Rouxues heart skip a beat or two.
With tears in her eyes, she asked innocently, Zhuojun, so you arent here to see me? Why arent you asking me about my health?
Xie Zhuojun was no longer as gentle as he used to be. He frowned impatiently. Oh yeah? Are you feeling unwell? Then please see a doctor, because I am not one!
Shangguan Rouxues tears trickled down her cheeks because of how rude he was to her.
Maybe Xie Zhoujun had no idea that she was unwell C she thought to herself.
When she called Wang Lu yesterday and told her about her ill health, Wang Lu had said a few kind words to her and promised her that she would have Xie Zhuojun call her soon. Apparently, Wang Lu had lied to her and never told him anything.
Shangguan Rouxues eyes were full of anger but she let the moment pass. She threw herself into Xie Zhuojuns arms once again. I dont want to see the doctor. I dont like how hospitals smell. I feel better, now that you are here!
Earlier, Xie Zhuojun would have found her to be charming and endearing, but now all he wanted was to push her off his arms
Shangguan Rouxue did look sick. Her face was pale and she had gotten much thinner. Her exquisite chin looked even more sharp.
Xie Zhuojun was, after all, still in love with her. He didnt push her away this time but persevered with his query. Tell me Xue, did you shoot for a movie?
Shangguan Rouxue looked up from his arms and tears twinkled in her eyes. Zhuojun, do you trust me or not? Of course, I didnt! You didnt want me to enter the entertainment industry, so why would I do such a thing?
But Ning told me that you went for an audition yesterday. Xie Zhuojun said unsurely. Shangguan Rouxue was saying something that was in total contrast to Shangguan Nings version.
Ah, did sister really say that? Shangguan Rouxue feigned surprise. Then she said in a pitiful tone. Sister must still be angry with me. Maybe thats why she told you that. I did go to the casting studio yesterday, but all I wanted to do was to update the Director about my situation and thanked him for thinking that I was capable of carrying off such a role. The Director wanted me to y the part of the leading female protagonist and every other member in the cast was confirmed too. I was the only one who had still not signed the contract because I wanted to exin my stance to him and apologise to him, in person.
Xie Zhuojun looked at Shangguan Rouxue suspiciously.
Which one of the two sisters was telling him the truth?
During the past four years, Shangguan Rouxue and Shangguan Ning kept giving him different versions of things, just like they were doing now. Earlier, he would have chosen to believe Shangguan Rouxue in a heartbeat.
But now, his trust in her wavered.
Shangguan Rouxue saw the hesitation in Xie Zhuojuns eyes. She got a bit nervous and then hugged Xie Zhuojun, holding him by his waist. She was in tears when she said,You must believe me, Zhuojun. I love you so much and I care so much about you. You and your parents dont like me being part of the entertainment industry so I will definitely honour your wishes. Also, I am pregnant now and I will regard baby as the most important. How would I ever shoot for a movie in this condition?
Xie Zhuojun may have been naive and he may have loved her but that didnt necessarily mean that he was stupid beyond cure.
He was no longer going to take Shangguan Rouxue at face value, especially since he was surrounded by so many lies and deceit.
What about your job as a television hostess? Did Ning make you lose your job?
Shangguan Rouxue was scared but her facial expressions gave away nothing.
She mustnt let Xie Zhuojun know that she was fired by the channel. Her identity was nothing, if she couldnt be a television hostess.
Sister... told the TV Station that I was pregnant. So the TV Station decided to let me take some rest. Zhuojun, you mustnt me Sister. She was just too upset with me and didnt care enough to keep my secret. Also, the TV channel wanted me to take a sabbatical anyway. When the baby is slightly older, I will be allowed to resume.
Xie Zhuojun was a bit confused. He wasnt able to tell how truthful Shangguan Rouxues version was. She sounded so reasonable and everything she said seemed to make perfect sense.
He must have been cheated by Shangguan Rouxue so many times before. Had she always been telling him these half baked stories, just to cover the truth, like she was doing right now?
He felt sorry for his ignorance.
Was he really such an idiot? Was he so gullible in Shangguan Rouxues eyes?
Xie Zhuojun refused to be treated like a fool. He didnt want to live his entire life guessing whether Shangguan Rouxue was telling him the truth or not.
A few minutester, his stance softened. He thought he was being too harsh to her but soon he took control of his emotions. He did not want his emotions to get the better of him. He said, Xue, lets go to the hospital.
Shangguan Rouxue stiffened. She asked nervously, Zhuo... Zhuojun, why are we going to the hospital?
Xie Zhuojun ran his fingers through her long hair and said with a smile, You said that you are not feeling very well, right? Let the doctor check you up, just to see that there is no seriousplications with you or the baby.
Shangguan Rouxue rxed a bit, hearing his exnation. But she still said, I dont want to go to the hospital. I am fine, please just keep mepany. I am tired. Carry me upstairs so that I can get some rest, okay?
Unmoved, Xie Zhuojun said to her, We must go to hospital. I have already taken an appointment with the doctor. He must be waiting. Lets go now.

Shangguan Rouxue, had always been a smart thinker. She understood instantly what he intended to do, once they reached the hospital. She pushed Xie Zhuojun away from her and copsed onto the floor, feebly. She cried aloud,How can you be so heartless, Zhuojun? This is your child, and you want it to die! Dont you dare touch my baby!
She could choose to abort the child if she wished, but that was her decision to make. How could Xie Zhuojun decide what needed to be done? Xie Zhuojun may not agree to marry her if she wasnt carrying his baby.
Xue, trust me. Lets abort this child, and that will be the end of us. I will handle all the finances. We both need a fresh start, but not together.
Shangguan Rouxue couldnt believe her ears. What she had feared the most, was about to happen C Xie Zhuojun wanted neither her, nor the child!
She panicked and crawled to the side of Xie Zhuojun.
She held his legs and begged, Zhuojun, I dont want to leave you. I love you so much, and I cant live without you. I want to marry you and even our wedding date is set. Everyone knows that we are due to get married. How can you break off the engagement at your whim and fancy?! Didnt you just say that you have only loved me, your entire life? Didnt you say that you want me to be the most beautiful bride in the entire world? Have you forgotten all the vows you made?
Shangguan Rouxue cried so loudly that she woke up Yang Wenshu, who was taking a nap in a room nearby.
The moment she walked out of the bedroom, she saw her daughter, whom she loved so much, kneeling in front of Xie Zhuojun, begging him holding his legs.
She was enraged. Without a care, she ran down the staircase and pped Xie Zhuojun hard, on his face.
Shangguan Rouxue held Yang Wenshus legs and screamed. Mom, dont p Zhuojun!
Yang Wenshu was afraid that she may p her daughter next, for being so weak in front of a man who did not appreciate her. Yang Wenshu squatted and took her daughter into her arms. She held her daughter tight andforted her.
She said, My silly girl. He doesnt want you and your baby, what are you defending him for? You have devoted yourself to himpletely and you are even pregnant with his baby. The TV Station forced you to take a sabbatical and now he wants to break off the engagement. Dont worry, your mom is still alive. I will not allow any harm toe to you. If he dares to refuse to marry you,I will kill myself in front of Family Xie, so that everyone will know that it is Xie Zhuojun who is an unfaithful man!
Mom, dont do that! You mustnt hurt Zhuojun. He has always loved me and he will definitely marry me. He was just saying all this because he was angry. Please dont me him for that.
Shangguan Rouxue was still in tears.
Xue, you are so silly. He is not worthy of your love and affection.
The moment Shangguan Zheng came home, he saw his wife and daughter holding each other and crying, whilst Xie Zhuojun was standing beside them, looking tired and impatient.
He was extremely busy these days. He had tons of things to deal with at work and his position as the Deputy Mayor was at the verge of being taken away from him. There were many people who were contesting for the seat. He hadnt forgotten that Jing Yichen made an open deration that he would make him lose his current position.
Although he had temporarily managed to hold on to his post, it wouldnt be long before the entire office went through a reshuffle. This was expected each time the city got a new mayor. All scams and embezzlements that had urred during Shangguan Zhengs tenure were under the scanner. The government was breathing down their neck and he couldnt handle the heat.
But it seemed that even when he came home, exhausted after a long day, he had no respite. What greeted him was not a kind and gentle wife or an understanding daughter, but a scene straight out of a dramatic movie.
What is it going on? Are you so free all day that you can think of nothing else to do but create a scene like this?
When Yang Wenshu heard Shangguan Zhengs voice, she gathered herself and went on to exin the situation to him.
She continued to hold Shangguan Rouxue and said tearfully, Good that you got home. Xie Zhuojun would have been responsible for both our deaths, if you hadnte back. He is so heartless that he wants our daughter to abort his child and even break off their engagement. Our daughter has never been humiliated in this way since she was born. Family Xie are really bullying Family Shangguan!
After hearing what she said, Shangguan Zheng frowned and turned to look at Xie Zhuojun. You want to break off the engagement, when my daughter is pregnant with your child? I havent even taken revenge for the way you treated my older daughter and now you dare to break off your engagement with my younger daughter?
Xie Zhuojun had always respected Shangguan Zheng, who was his fathers age. When Shangguan Zheng spoke with him in such a formidable tone, Xie Zhuojun felt stressed.
He had always been scared of Shangguan Zheng, and when he asked Xie Zhoujun about his intentions, Xie Zhoujun started to shiver, as if it was him who was being unreasonable and cruel.
Xie Zhuojuns palms started to sweat, in nervousness. Given his fickle nature, he gave in when confronted by a domination personality like Shangguan Zheng. He could not stand up for himself.
After saying nothing for a few tense minutes, he blurted, Uncle... you have misunderstood me... I will marry Xue, I will not break off the engagement...
Xie Zhuojun felt that thest gleam of hope that he had, of being able to live a life that was devoid of lies and drama, was now extinguished for good. He thought that he would start his life afresh, without Shangguan Rouxue, but for now that remained a distant dream.
He understood that breaking off the engagement was detrimental for Shangguan Rouxue and it was cruel of him to abort the baby. But he couldnt help it. He wasnt wrong for choosing his peace of mind above all else.
Hearing what Xie Zhuojun had said, Shangguan Rouxue instantly stood up and hugged him tight. She said lovingly, I knew that, Zhuojun. You were just angry. I knew that you wouldnt abandon me!
Xie Zhuojun was full of bitterness and unhappiness but there was no way for him to vent it out. He held Shangguan Rouxue by her arms and said without emotion, No, I wont abandon you. I will marry you.
All that had happened, had made the situation far beyond his control.
He didnt know when Shangguan Rouxue got pregnant. He had used protection each time that they got intimate. She still got pregnant.
He wasnt sure if this was an ident or one of her ns.
None of this was important any more. It didnt matter whether or not Shangguan Rouxue got pregnant on purpose, the fact remained that he had to marry her.
If he was destined to ept this marriage, then he would have nowhere to escape.
Xie Zhoujun felt like the sacrificialmb that was on the verge of being brought under the knife.
He was depressed, and had lost all the willpower to fight any more.
But Yang Wenshu didnt want him to let him off the hook so easily. Seeing that he agreed to marry Shangguan Rouxue, she said instantly. We can wait a little longer to do the wedding rituals since the preparations are still underway, but we need not wait to get the wedding registered. Xue and you have been together for so long and she is even pregnant with the heir of Family Xie. Youd better give her the status of yourwfully wedded wife. Tomorrow morning, go and get the marriage certificate!

Hearing Yang Wenshu say this, Xie Zhuojun felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Why were she and Shangguan Rouxue so anxious?
Were they so eager to get the marriage done with, because they were afraid that he would change his mind again?
Why did everyone change so drastically, within such a short time?
Now that he was under so much pressure from the Shangguans, he had no choice but to relent.
Xie Zhuojun went home exhausted and updated his parents about his decision to get the marriage registered the following morning and also collect the certificate with Shangguan Rouxue.
Xie Dongfeng and Wang Lu had recently been hearing a lot of things about Shangguan Rouxue. Adjectives like pretentious and vicious had associated themselves with their future daughter inw. They still hadnt seen the other side to Shangguan Rouxues personality, so their impression of her was still positive. Besides, Shangguan Rouxue was now pregnant with Family Xies heir, so the marriage had be the need of the hour.
Wang Lu lectured Xie Zhuojun once again about the importance of this marriage. That broke his heart even further.
Early the following morning, Yang Wenshu called Xie Zhuojun and urged him to take Shangguan Rouxue to the Office of Civil Affairs, where marriages were to be registered.
Xie Zhuojun understood clearly that there was no way out for him and that even his parents wouldnt allow him to break off the engagement. This is exactly what Shangguan Zheng had said too. It wasnt fair for Xie Zhoujun to tamper with the reputation of Family Shangguan. He had already called off his engagement with Shangguan Ning, four years ago. If he did the same with Shangguan Rouxue, Family Shangguan would have no face to show.
Xie Zhuojun stayed awake all night. There were dark circles under his eyes, the next morning and he looked deathly pale.
He had been suffering from repeated dizzy spells during the past few days, but due to the current state of affairs in his life, he has been procrastinating about visiting the hospital. He felt even worse afterst night because he hadnt gotten much sleep. He felt a throbbing headache that refused to let him think straight.
He took some painkillers and felt a little bit better. Then he drove to pick up Shangguan Rouxue and got to the Civil Affairs Office.
Shangguan Rouxue was very happy. Marrying Xie Zhuojun had been her dream since she was in her teens. The moment she met him, she had fallen for his handsome face and his soft temperament.
She had used all the schemes and methods to drive away all other women away from him, including Shangguan Ning, who used to be engaged with him. And today, her wish had been realized C she was marrying Xie Zhuojun.
He would be herwful husband after the marriage was registered. She could be with him openly and freely. She neednt worry any more that someone else would steal him away from her.
Although Xie Zhuojun wasnt as gentle and caring as he used to be, yet she believed that with her coy behaviour, Xie Zhuojun would definitelye around. One day he would love her as much as he loved her before.
As long as they got married, there would be no problem.
When they were done with the registration at the Office of Civil Affairs, Xie Zhuojuns heart felt heavy. He felt no joy at being married.
But Shangguan Rouxue was thrilled. She threw herself into his arms. She kissed him and yed with his hair.
Waiting patiently in a conspicuous silver-white sportscar, Tiger pulled out his cell-phone and reported thetest update to Jing Yichen. Master, Xie and Shangguan Rouxue have registered their marriage and got the marriage certificate.
Jing Yichen was reading the financial report of the enterprise when he received the call. He nodded and said casually. When Xie Zhuojun is in a better mood, deliver our wedding present to him and then we will sit back and watch. Also, you can go ahead and make good all the loans owed by Xie Enterprises to various corporations in the market. Jingsheng Enterprises will recover those loans from Xie enterprises.
Tiger understood and passed on Jing Yichens order to his men.
Shangguan Ning had no idea about all that Jing Yichen had done. She was just confused about Xie Zhoujun, who came to Jingsheng once again.
Mr. Xie, are you deaf or just in stupid? Didnt I tell you not toe here again?
What was wrong with Xie Zhuojun? He came to Jingsheng every day and the more he was asked to leave, the more he refused to listen.
Xie Zhuojun was about to light a cigarette when he noticed Shangguan Ning frown. He smiled bitterly and said softly, Oh, I almost forgot that you dont like the smell of cigarettes.
Shangguan Ning frowned even more after what he said.
Youd better leave if you dont have anything to say. I will not see you again, so please save yourself the trouble ofing here the next time around.
She had nothing to say to Xie Zhuojun any more. If Shangguan Rouxue ever got to know that Xie Zhuojun had beening to Jingsheng Enterprise to see her, she would definitely cause some trouble. She didnt want to be sucked into that mess again, because of him.
Although Jing Yichen hadnt said anything to her yet, but she knew that he didnt like it when she met Xie Zhuojun.
Shangguan Ning didnt want to cause any misunderstanding with Jing Yichen, because she cherished her marriage with him. She didnt want it to be ruined because of Xie Zhuojun.
Ning was done with Xie Zhuojun for good. She was about to leave when she heard Xie Zhuojun whisper, Ning, I am married!
Shangguan Ning stopped in her tracks and said calmly, Congrattions!
I am here to tell you that I will note to disturb you again in the future, nor will Xue.
Xie Zhuojun stood up and felt more disappointed than ever as he stared at Shangguan Ning. He could not control his emotions anymore. He thought that Shangguan Ning would be upset to learn of his marriage, but that didnt happen. He thought that she would be relieved to learn that he wouldnt bother her anymore, but that didnt happen either. She didnt care about him at all and this was killing him. All she said was, okay and then walked out of the conference room.
Of course Shangguan Ning didnt care about him. He shouldnt havee to her in the first ce. He realised that just because he had told Ning that Shangguan Rouxue wouldnt bother her anymore, it didnt mean that Shangguan Ning was ready to forgive her.
That Shangguan Rouxue married Xie Zhuojun was something Shangguan Ning already epted four years ago. She wasnt surprised to hear that they were married.
Shangguan Ning was sure that she wouldnt feel upset on learning about Xie Zhuojuns marriage to Shangguan Rouxue. She thought that she would at least feel happy for them, but that wasnt the case either. She felt nothing.
They two were finally married. Hopefully now, Shangguan Rouxue would be much less annoying.
Shouldnt Xie Zhuojun have been ecstatic to marry his true love?
Why did he look so depressed as if he were returning from a funeral rather than a marriage?
Anyway, she was d to have nothing to do with those two. She just wanted to live her own life.
Jing Yichen immediately got an update that Xie Zhuojun hade to the Enterprise to meet Shangguan Ning.
He was extremely unhappy. After all, Xie Zhuojun and Shangguan Ning used to be engaged once upon a time and Shangguan Ning had spent so much time taking care of him too. He felt a little ufortable when he thought about this.
Didnt Xie Zhuojun foolishly dump Shangguan Ning and choose Shangguan Rouxue instead?
And now he regretted his choice?
Things didnt work like that. Shangguan Ning belonged to Jing Yichen only!
Xie Zhuojun was not even qualified enough to polish Shangguan Nings shoes. He deserved to be with Shangguan Rouxue, who was vicious and full of evil schemes and ns.
Jing Yichen found that over time Xie Zhuojun was getting more and more annoying. He made a call to Tiger immediately and said sinisterly, Tiger get Xie Zhuojun into some trouble. He seems to have taken his Enterprise for grantedtely. He has too much time on his hands, to spare. Make sure he has no time toe and pollute the environment at Jingsheng anymore!

Tiger was very good at stirring up trouble for others, and causing trouble for Xie Zhuojun was a piece of cake for him, because he had many moles at Family Xiespany.
Soon, Xie Zhuojun received a call from thepany C a new order had run into some problems. The buyers had received the consignment but they falsely imed that Family Xie hadnt sent the delivery.
Family Xies business presence scope was rtively narrow. Mostly, it was textile industry as well as mining and metallurgy.
Currently, the mining and metallurgy industry had already been monopolized by Jingsheng Enterprise, and only a few otherpanies were able to sustain their business alongside Jingsheng. The reason why Family Xie was still able to keep their business going was because Xie Dongfeng had established many contacts when he was in the army. Also, the Xie Family had been involved in the textile industry for many generations.
However, running a textile based firm was hardly rocket science. More and morepanies had already started to enter the industry, so eachpanys profit share had reduced over time, because of the fiercepetition.
Although Xie Zhuojun had learnt all about the business from his father and he had been under his tutge for many years, he had no business acumen.
He could handle minor problems, but once the issue got critical, Xie Dongfeng had to take over ande to thepany in order to smoothen out the matter.
Xie Dongfeng hadnt been keeping too welltely, so he had given Xie Zhuojun the right to handle the business and the day to day affairs at thepany.
Therefore, whenever some problem urred, he was definitely going to try and negotiate with the other party. Xie Dongfeng would not be summoned until the problem was about to get out of hand.
Such a case had never happened before where the consignment on Company Xies records was showing as delivered and epted, but the buyers imed to not have received it. The buyers were old clients of Company Xie and there was no way that Company Xie could take their ims casually.
Xie Zhuojun drove to the buyerspany directly, without caring about the throbbing pain in his head.
On the way there, Shangguan Rouxue called him and asked him in a loving voice, Zhuojun, you havent forgotten about apanying me to the hospital for my physical examination, have you? I am so scared of going to the hospital by myself.
Xie Zhuojun was very impatient. He replied in an annoyed tone, Get your mother to go with you. I dont have the time today!
After he finished saying this, he didnt even bother to exin anything further and hung up the phone.
Shangguan Rouxue had no idea what happened to Xie Zhoujuns mood again today. His attitude had be even worse and here she had been hoping that he would turn into a new leaf.
After the line was disconnected, she immediately decided to text someone to check on Xie Zhuojun and his whereabouts. After she finishedposing the text, she just realized that the man who had been working for her had gone missing, ever since theirst interaction.
She felt a bit anxious. That man knew too many secrets about her and her mother, Yang Wenshu. The fact that he had gone missing was worrisome to mother and daughter alike. They panicked.
Also, mother daughter duo found it very difficult to n anything concrete, without that mans assistance. The new person Yang Wenshu had found as a recement, was too unskilled in this regard and still charged them a lot of money as fees.
Shangguan Rouxue didnt go to the hospital for her physical examination. She still had no intention of keeping the baby. After all, her purpose of keeping the baby had already been achieved. She was married to Xie Zhuojun.
She needed the baby for a little while longer, for her to make the best out of it.
She was still so young, and she mustnt waste her beautiful youth on giving birth to babies and taking care of them. She wanted to pursue her dream of achieving stardom in the entertainment industry.
Although Xie Zhuojun disapproved of her ambition of bing an actress, she knew that after she reached the peak of super stardom, he would forgive her and definitely approve of her choices.
All she needed now was to find a man who could help her!
...
Jing Yiran had been grounded by Grandma Mo and Zhang Rong for all these days.The Family Jing House had be a fortress and was heavily guarded round the clock. Grandma Mo had given strict orders that Jing Yiran was to not leave the house. No one dared to let him out without her prior permission.
The goddamned Jing Yichen and Mu Qing! How dare they resort to such terrible tactics!
Once he was allowed to go out, he was definitely going to seek revenge.
At present, he was not only under house arrest but also felt weird to leave the house in his current physical condition.
In the past, his penis used to be hard and erect every day and he was constantly looking for new women to vent his physical energy on, but after Mu Qings acupuncture session, it had never been erect again. It was as if it felt no sensation or arousal.
Jing Yiran wanted very desperately to ask Mu Qing to treat him and rid him of this horrible condition. He also wanted Mu Qing to tell Grandma Mo that Jing Yiran waspletely healthy and had no ailments, because he was fed up with the bitter Chinese medicine that he had to drink every day.
He was about to throw away the dose of Chinese medicine that he had just been handed, at the insistence of Grandma Mo, when his phone buzzed. A new message had arrived.
He didnt bother to read phone messages anymore, because all messages turned out to be bad news!
Like one of his bars had recently gone bankrupt, some more of his aides had turned against him, or there was a raid by the Tax and Audit Bureau and they wanted to check all his ounts.... the list went on.
Soon he would run out of money and wouldnt be able to fight Jing Yichen anymore.
But today had already started on a positive note. He saw that the sender of that message was none other than Shangguan Rouxue.
Jing Yiran finally found a way to get back at Jing Yichen.
He went up to Grandma Mo and tried all methods to coax her to let him go out of the house. He cried and begged, ignoring the looks of surprise from the confused staff.
Suddenly, Jing Yiran came up with an idea. He imed that he needed to see Mu Qing for a checkup. The olddy would not be able to refuse. But she was not stupid,so she called Mu Qing herself and asked him if her grandson was indeed scheduled for a check up.
She also understood that Jing Yiran was quite bored of being home. She allowed him to go out for no longer than two hours. After that he was to return home. If he didnt return in time, he would never be allowed to go out again.
She even got someone to follow Jing Yiran, fearing that he would go and see some woman, behind Grandma Mos back.
What the olddy didnt know or understand was that Jing Yiran had no ability to do anything, even if he were to meet the most beautiful girl in the entire world!
Two hours were enough.
Jing Yiran didnt bargain for any more. He made a promise that he was not going to meet any woman and then left home with a few of his friends.
When the pedestrians on the street saw Second Master of Family Jing, sitting in a fancy car with a convoy of ten cars following him, everyone was envious of him. They all thought how lucky he was to be born in Family Jing.
But no one knew that the ten cars were not supposed to cover for him. They were being used to prevent him from escaping and to keep an eye on him.
Jing Yiran had no intention to escape. As long as he went to Family Mus Hospital, he would find a way to meet the person he wanted to meet.
After Mu Qing received a call from Grandma Mo, he knew that Jing Yiran was nning something. Mu Qing called Jing Yichen, just to keep him updated.
When Jing Yiran entered Family Mus hospital, he was in a cheerful mood. He whistled all the way to Mu Qings office, as he eyed the beautiful and young nurses.
I bet that you have informed my good brother of my arrival. Youd better ask him to get here as soon as possible. I have very little time and it is extremely precious.
Chapter 163 - The Important Record
Chapter 163: The Important Record
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yiran sat on a chair, legs crossed casually, chewing gum. He looked stress free and rxed.
Mu Qing didnt like his cheeky behaviour, so he reminded him with a sneer, You seem to have forgotten that the functionality of an important part of your body is still in my charge. Act more cheeky, and you will never be able to touch a woman in your life, again!
Jing Yiran didnt get worked up at all, even though Mu Qing was threatening him. Jing Yiran said coolly, Call him, and I will have a word with him. I am sure that he will be here very, very soon.
You call him yourself, dont get me involved in your cheap tricks.
I would have called him, if he answered my call. You think I wouldve needed you, then?
Now dont waste time talking rubbish and call for Jing Yichen immediately. This is something that he has been waiting to hear for a long time.
Although Jing Yiran wasnt someone to be taken seriously, yet Mu Qing knew that the information that Jing Yiran wanted to share would definitely be important to Jing Yichen.
Mu Qing was also aware that Jing Yiran and Jing Yichen werent on great terms with each other at all. Whenever the two met, they would want to strangle the other to death. If Jing Zhongxiu, who was their powerful father, had been unable to control them, no one else would be able to do that. It was a matter of time before he lost one of his sons, at the hands of the other.
Mu Qing weighed the odds. At the most it would turn out to be a false rm and Jing Yichen would shout at him for wasting his time, but if it was indeed some important information that Jing Yiran wanted to share, then Mu Qing better not waste any more time.
If it turns out that you dont have anything important to tell him, I will ensure that you leave this hospital on your back, instead of your feet. Mu Qing threatened him one more time.
He pulled out his phone to call Jing Yichen.
After the phone call went through, Jing Yichen answered and said,What is it?
Master Jing, the weirdo, Jing Yiran has asked me to call you. He has some important information that he wants to share with you.
Jing Yichen replied indiferently, Let him talk.
Jing Yiran slowly pulled out his own phone and pressed the y button.
A clear conversation between a man and a woman started to y. The man sounded rough and ruthless whilst the woman sounded quite gentle.
What is this?
The university teacher I asked you to check outst time. Make a deal with him.
What deal?
Tell him to make sure that the woman is ruined. Tell him that after he is done, the Deputy-Mayor would back him up. He will be given a clean chit. He will not only be able to get this prettyss but also be rewarded with a great amount of money. Be very careful. Cover your tracks at all times. Watch your back and you know of course, that my name cannot get involved in any case.
Dont worry, I have always been clean with my work. I have no intention of getting you involved.
Good!
But, my payment...
I will give you enough money tost you a few generations, as long as you ruin that woman.
You know pretty well that I dont need money and I dont want any money!
A long silence dominated the record. Then the woman said calmly, After you finish your task, I will give you anything you ask for!
No, I want you to pay first. I have been waiting for you for so long and done so much for you! But every time you put me off by saying that we must wait for sometime longer. You are getting married soon and I will not wait any longer!
The sound of two people struggling and panting could be heard from the record. What was happening between them, was obvious.
After the recording was over, Jing Yiran said proudly, Yeah? You want to thank me right? The information is important and so well concealed that I had to listen to the tape a few times before I finally understood what was happening. But that was just me. You mustve understood it immediately, have you not? You are so smart!
Wait in the hospital. Ill be there as soon as I can.
Jing Yichen kept it brief. He got into the car and said to Tiger, Family Mus Hospital. Now!
Tiger dashed off towards Family Mus Hospital.
Jing Yichen knew what the recording conveyed. He also knew who the two people were. What he didnt know was how Jing Yiran got hold of the record. If he had been involved in this sensitive matter, then Jing Yichen would beat him ck and blue.
Tiger drove like a maniac and arrived at Family Mus Hospital in a matter of minutes.
When the nurses at Family Mus Hospital saw Jing Yichen, they were excited and wondered what special day it was that day, to have brought the two most handsome men in A city, to their hospital on the same morning.
The staff at Mu Qings hospital, all knew who Jing Yiran was. They knew that he was the second heir to the Jingsheng Enterprise. Hardly anyone knew Jing Yichen. He was extremely good looking but no one knew of his lineage.
Jing Yichen walked straight to Mu Qings office, and his bevy of bodyguards led the way for him.
Jing Yichen was an introvert by nature and did not like to handle the media or give interviews. He liked to let his work do the talking, but looking at his convoy of guards, everyone guessed that he was some who held a certain authority. Someone went up and held the door of Mu Qings office open for him. The man bowed courteously, Please, Elder Master!
Jing Yichen walked in, leaving behind a group of dumbfounded hospital staff.
So, he was the legendary Jing Yichen. The older son of Family Jing, the heir of Family Jing, the new President of Jingsheng Enterprise?!
And the woman he often brought here was the Lady of Family Jing?!
No wonder the Old Mu hade and helped her, because she was Jing Yichens wife. The woman mustve been so lucky. Not only was she the Lady of Family Jing, she was also the one who stole Jing Yichens heart.
They all thought that the reason why Senior Mu hade to the hospital was because Jing Yichen was a close friend of Mu Qing. Honestly, even if Mu Qing and Jing Yichen didnt know each other well, Grandfather Mu would still havee to the womans rescue!
After all, Jingsheng Enterprise owned a huge portion of shares of Family Mus Hospital and it was still continuing to invest into the hospital. The newly-imported facilities as well as the avability of top-notch doctors was possible only because Jingsheng Enterprise was supporting the hospital.
Jing Yichen looked so intimidating, as he entered Mu Qings office. He walked towards Jing Yiran and asked, Where is he?
Seeing Jing Yichens behaviour, Mu Qing knew that he had made the right decision by calling him. The recording that Jing Yiran had yed was very important. He didnt know what all of it meant, and had no idea why it was important, but for some reason Mu Qing thought that the mans voice in the recording, seemed very familiar. After thinking for a few minutes, he still couldnt recollect whom the voice belonged to.
Jing Yiran seemed to be enjoying Jing Yichens impatience. Heughed. Hahah, you really dont know how to talk, do you? How would I know where this man is, when you have been searching for him in all of A City? Or, are you asking me for answers, thereby admitting that I am smarter than you? Looks like there are still somethings that you cant achieve.This is so exciting! I thought that you were Superman, who was capable of doing anything, but it seems as though you are even more incapable than I am!

Chapter 164: Step on As You Wish
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yiran refused to learn. Jing Yichen beat him to a pulp, every time they had a scuffle, but he never stopped provoking Jing Yichen. Jing Yiran would end up saying something or the other that ticked Jing Yichen off and he wouldnt hesitate to shower him with punches, in return.
Jing Yiran knew the bottomline. Jing Yichen would not kill him, because they belonged to the same family.
Jing Yiran had never been able to beat Jing Yichen, since they were kids. Jing Yichen was always stronger and swifter than his little brother. Jing Yiran was used to this, so much so that he didnt mind being beaten up as long as he was able to annoy Yichen. As long as Jing Yiran was alive, this was his motive C to annoy Jing Yichen and make life difficult for him.
Most times Jing Yichen was unaffected by Jing Yirans childish behaviour, but at times Yichen would get so instigated that he would want to kill someone.
It was no doubt then, that Mu Qing and Shangguan Ning thought Yiran was a crazy maniac. This description of him was apt.
Jing Yichen had been fighting with Jing Yiran since they were children, so they both understood each others temperaments very well. Yichen understood that Yiran must hold a lot of important clues with himself, which is why he was behaving so pricey. Yiran knew this too, that is why he was so confident that Yichen woulde to see him.
Without saying anything more, Jing Yichen stepped forward and held Jing Yiran by his cor, lifting him from the chair.
Jing Yiran felt breathless instantly, after all he had only just recovered from thest beating that he had got from Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen threw him to the ground when Yirans face started to turn blue. Yichen stepped on his chest and said menacingly, If you dont want your recently healed ribs to be broken once again, youd better hand over the man to me. If I find him myself, Ill break your bones to such a degree that they would be beyond repair.
Oh yeah? Then go ahead and do as you wish. Go on then. Kill me, kill me now!
Both the brothers got into a fight again. There was a sound of bones breaking and an ear piercing cry followed.
Jing Yirans had finally paid the price for provoking Jing Yichen so much.
Mu Qing couldnt bear to see what was happening. He shook his head and covered his ears with his hands. He sighed. Jing Yiran, you are so irritating. Even I feel like giving you a p or two. Master Jing has great self-control to have not killed you, yet. It is a miracle that you are still alive after all that you have done. I would have poisoned you to death if I had to deal with you every day!
After Jing Yichen broke two of Jing Yirans ribs, he got hold of Yirans phone and wanted to transfer the recording to his own phone.
Jing Yiran was numb with the agony. He was lying in a huddle and still couldnt sit up. Heughed like a lunatic, seeing Yichen trying to unlock his phone. Haha, you thought that unlocking my phone was easy? Ie well prepared. The data on my phone is encrypted and it is impossible...
Before he finished his sentence, a womans pre-recorded message started to y, on the phone.Congrattions. Your phone has been unlocked.
Jing Yiran stopped with his taunts immediately.
This was impossible. His phone had been encrypted by a professional and it needed a professional to unlock it. How could Jing Yichen decode it so fast and with such ease?
When did he learn how to unlock an encrypted phone?
Mu Qing had already lost all hope of seeing Jing Yirane out of this alive. His behaviour was extremely annoying and even after being beaten by Jing Yichen, he still kept provoking him. How had Jing Yichen manage to tolerate him all these years? He should have killed him and gotten rid of him, ages ago.
Jing Yichens brain was not like that of a normal human brain. There was nothing in the world that he could not understand. Unlocking the phone was just a piece of cake. Even if it meant hacking the FBI security system, he would be able to do it after hed had enough time to understand it!
Mu Qing had always been proficient at his work. He was one of the most sought after doctors in all of the country. He was extremely modest and polite, but in his heart he knew how good he was at his job. He masked it well but he was a proud man. He admired very few people, and Jing Yichen was one of them.
So every time his grandpa taught him an important lesson using Jing Yichen as the example, he looked up to Jing Yichen even more. He would try to work even harder so that he could be close to the kind of person Jing Yichen was.
Jing Yichen was not only high in IQ and EQ, but he was extremely disciplined and capable. He had achieved so manyurels but even then he showed no inclination of living on past sesses. Learning from Jing Yichen, even Mu Qing chose to study more of medicine.
Jing Yichen decoded Jing Yirans phone easily and then deciphered the encrypted file that was stored on the phone. He found the recording and transferred it to his own phone.
Congrattions. Your phone has been unlocked C this message kept ying incessantly as Jing Yichen continued to decode one file after another. Jing Yiran was in a world of pain but that was nothingpared to the torment he felt at having been outsmarted by none other than Jing Yichen.
He had wanted to fight back today but ended up losing to Jing Yichen once again!
Luckily, the most important and confidential file was not stored on his phone, otherwise he would have had to face such bitter defeat that it would be difficult to recover from.
The injury had made Jing Yiran delirious. He was finding it difficult to breathe.
He cried out, Mu Qing! Is this the way your hospital takes care of patients? Cant you see that I am dying? Get a doctor here, now!
Mu Qing came to his side, ced his fingers upon his wrist to be able to feel his pulse, for a few seconds and then smiled brightly. Second Master of Family Jing, dont worry, you wont die here. But it seems that you deserve to suffer a little bit more, after all, you are asking for the pain yourself. Since you are so stubborn, I will grant your wish. I wont be giving you an anaesthesia when I repair your fractured ribster. We need to be frugal with our hospitals resources, you know.
Mu Qing, how dare you! I will destroy your hospital. Jing Yiran threatened and almost passed out when he heard that he wouldnt be given any pain killing drugs.
Ah? Oh yeah? Then destroy it and do as you wish! Go on then! Do it now! Come and destroy the hospital. I will be saved the trouble of treating you henceforth.
Jing Yiran was in so much pain, yet Mu Qing didnt do anything to help him. What made Yiran even more irritated was that Mu Qing poked his chest in the ce where his ribs were broken. That was in sadistic. Mu Qing didnt summon for apounder to carry him to the operation room, until he heard him screaming in pain.
When the nurses pushed Jing Yiran into the operation room on the stretcher, Jing Yiran could be heard scolding his convoy of bodyguards. He yelled angrily, Useless people! Your duty is to protect me. Where were you when I was so badly hurt. I dont want to see your faces after I am discharged from the operation theatre.
The bodyguards continued to stare at him with a straight face, without speaking a word.
They had been the bodyguards in Family Jing for a very long time, and were used to these tiffs between Elder Master and Second Master. Almost always, it was Elder Master who punched Second Master. Elder Master would lose his temper because of Second Masters idiosyncrasies. Second Master would have been beaten to death, if it wasnt for the Lords orders. Their father, the Lord, had forbidden both his sons from causing life threatening injuries to the other.

Chapter 165: A Feeling of Home

Jing Yichen wasnt much satisfied with what he extracted from Jing Yirans phone in Mu Qings office.
What he wanted was more than proof, he wanted the man!
The man in the recording was none other than ck Wind whom Jing Yichen had been seeking for the past half a year!
When he had gone to ck-and-red Association to seek ck Wind earlier, Mu Qing was with him and had put the needles into ck Wind. Thats why he found ck Winds voice familiar.
Jing Yichen had looked for ck Wind for so long, thoroughly across the entire A City, both in legal and illegal way, but had still failed to find even his trace.
Because it had been Jing Yiran who had hidden this man.
No wonder he couldnt find ck Wind, because it was Jing Yiran who had been his rival.
Just as he was familiar with Jing Yiran, Jing Yiran was quite familiar with him. He understood his power and it was quite easy to get away from his sight.
The woman in the recording was Shangguan Rouxue!
So basically, it was Shangguan Rouxue who tried to ruin Shangguan Ning with Guo Shuais helpst winter.
No wonder Guo Shuai and ck Wind both said that it was Shangguan Zheng who was behind all of these. It had been Shangguan Rouxue who had done the trick.
When Jing Yichen thought of what happened to Shangguan Ning back then, his heart felt like a volcano that was about to erupt.
He had never intended to let this couple live peacefully but now he would make them suffer so much that they would wish that they could die.
In order to prevent Jing Yirans phone from tracking his, Jing Yichen didnt take away his phone. Instead, he took the trouble to transfer every encrypted file from his phone to his own.
Valuable as Jing Yirans files were, yet he knew more about Jing Yiran.
He had not killed Jing Yiran till now not because he had been merciful, but because Jing Zhongxiu interfered.
Every time he came to the edge of killing Jing Yiran, Jing Zhongxiu woulde up and stop him, so that Jing Yiran got a breather and recovered with the help of Jing Zhongxiu.
Jing Zhongxiu had been trying hard to keep the bnce between the two brothers so that neither would be much weaker or much stronger than the other.
Therefore, Jing Yichen had always been quite cold to him, and would not even be bothered to call him father.
He had hated Zhang Rong to the bones and he naturally didnt like Jing Yiran. But Jing Zhongxiu kept defending the two of them. Therefore, he never thought that father favored him, and that the reason why Jingsheng Enterprise was handed over him to was only because Jing Yiran wasnt suitable to run Jingsheng.
Because of Jing Zhongxius interference, Jing Yiran became increasingly proud whilst Jing Yichen failed to control him enough.
If Jing Yiran had notid eyes upon Shangguan Ning, he would not have swept off Jing Yirans power so tremendously this time.
After Jing Yichen finished with the file transference, he and Tiger left the hospital.
He understood clearly that Jing Yiran would not spill the whereabouts of ck Wind, so it was useless to stay in the hospital.
It would be much easier to find ck Wind now he had the direction!
Also, it had been worth the while to know who was behind the n.
After Jing Yichen arrived home, Shangguan Ning was helping with food making C she was instructing the chefs and the servants to cook the food, because what she could do was to cook some noodles and nothing else.
It was lively at home and the scent of dishes came out of the kitchen. It was a happy scene.
Shangguan Nings crispy voice arose in the kitchen, making Jing Yichens cold heart be gentle and warm.
Sister Fang, take this bone soup over there, and make sure to not let it get burnt. Keep the lid and dont let it be cold. It would take a while for Yichen to return.
Uncle Du, dont put coriander into the soy sauce mushroom, Yichen doesnt like coriander. Dont mind me, I think it is okay without coriander too.
Sister Lan, the cherries are so fresh and sweet today, Yichen will definitely love them! Buy more tomorrow.
...
She had been busy nagging and instructing, totally unaware of Jing Yichen who was watching her, leaning against the door for some time now.
This was the feeling of home, lively and vivid, full of people and love, unlike the vi he used to live in, empty and isted.
More importantly, the woman he loved deeply and who loved him back, was here.
Sister Lan and Sister Fang discovered Jing Yichen suddenly. He waved them to leave, and they tiptoed away.
Uncle Du was still working the mushrooms in the kitchen when Shangguan Ning was suddenly caught by a pair of strong arms as soon as she entered the dining room.
She was so surprised that she almost dropped the cherries to the floor.
She let out a sigh of relief at the sight of Jing Yichen. Then she said in an using tone. You startled me! Why were you so quiet?
Seeing her lovely face warm with exertion, Jing Yichen felt excitement rise up in him and he kissed upon her red lips.
Shangguan Ning immediately pushed him away and said in a shy tone, flushing. What are you doing! Someone is here!
Both Sister Fang and Sister Lan are gone, and Uncle Du is in the kitchen, totally invisible to us. What are you afraid of? I cant kiss you outside or at home, what position do I have as a husband? Jing Yichen said smilingly, as he pinched her beautiful nose.
Shangguan scanned the kitchen and didnt find Sister Lan and Sister Fang. She pursed, You will do the dishester since you asked them to leave. I will just be in charge of eating!
Aha, did I marry a food lover? But why havent you got any fatter after eating so much? Jing Yichen patted Shangguan Nings rounded butt, in a flirtatious manner.
Shangguan Ning instantly flushed and stuffed a cherry into his mouth. You are getting more and more unruly! Get yourself gagged with this cherry!
Jing Yichen ate the cherry as he leaned down to kiss her smooth forehead. Uncle Du had just finished cooking when he carried the te in and ran into the young couple flirting with each other. He put down the dish directly and said smilingly, Ah, I am too old to see anything!
Shangguan Ning got extremely shy and flushed. But Jing Yichen behaved as if nothing had happened. Thank you for your work, Uncle Du, you can go home now, or Ning wouldnt allow me to touch her with people here.
Old Du was in his 50s and a specially hired cook at Family Jing. His cooking skills were excellent and he had been cooking for Jing Yichen since he was little, so that Jing Yichen got very particr about food and never wanted to eat anyone elses food. So after Jing Yichen moved here, Old Du came with him. He lived at Family Jing when he was not cooking.
Hearing what Jing Yichen said, he unbuttoned his apron and walked away happily. He had watched Jing Yichen grow up and regarded him as his child. He was d that he had started a family and got his own home and a wife who took care of him.

Shangguan Ningughed at Jing Yichens bold promation. How could he be so shameless in front of Old Du?
She sat down with a te of cherries, refusing to make eye contact with Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen knew that Shangguan Ning was shy, so he smiled and sat down next to Shangguan Ning, and propped her on hisp. Feed me the cherries, he said.
Shangguan Ning rolled her eyes at him, and said proudly, You shall have none of these. These are mine and I refuse to share them.
Jing Yichen came up with a smarteback and said in a flirty tone, Doesnt matter. I want none of those that are your te. Just this one will do!
He stared into her eyes and rubbed Shangguan Nings moist lips, with the back of his fingers, seductively.
Shangguan Ning, who had just managed to get over her shyness, blushed again. Pretending to scold him, she said, Have some shame! Hurry up and get some food. Its going to be cold soon.
Jing Yichen loved how easily she turned coy. That made him want to trouble her some more. He could do this all day.
He had never seen a girl who could was so bashful and would blush so easily.
Jing Yichen put his forehead against hers and whispered, Ning, it is so good to have you. You are the best thing to have happened to me.
Hearing his words, Shangguan Ning didnt shy away from the praise. She went ahead and praised herself further, Of course, I am such an excellent wife. You are lucky to have me.
Jing Yichen couldnt help but grin. He felt reluctant to let her go, so he sat next to her and they ate dinner together.
Seeing Shangguan Ning in such a jovial mood, Jing Yichen didnt want to bring up the topic of Shangguan Rouxue and spoil the mood.
It was not untilte that night when they bothy down in bed and Jing Yichen held her in his arms, did he whisper to her, Ning, I found the person who gave Guo Shuai the order.
Shangguan Ning shivered. Her body stiffened and she asked with bated breath, Who was it?
Jing Yichen could feel her anger and the change in her stance. He held her tightly and ran his fingers on her bare back, as he said softly, It was Shangguan Rouxue. I found the audio recording of her giving the order to ck Wind.
Jing Yichen vividly remembered all the details. He wasnt so sure about his own feelings at that time, but he still couldnt tolerate someone touching her.
The fury he felt, engulfed his rationality, making him realize that he was going to destroy anyone who hurt her.
Guo Shuai was still in the prison, putting up with the torture and wishing that he were dead.
Sometimes living like this was even worse than being dead!
Shangguan Rouxue, the main culprit, would receive a lesson that would everything else seem like a cakewalk. Her lesson would be worse than Guo Shuais.
Shangguan Ning held on to Jing Yichen tightly. Teeth clenched, she said spitefully, It was her? How could she be so cruel? I have never done anything to harm her, but she keeps hatching all these evil ns to harm me.
She had guessed that it could have been Shangguan Rouxue who had made the deal with Guo Shai, because no one else could hate her that much. Shangguan Ning had assumed that even though Shangguan Rouxue was vicious, her games were limited to embarrassing Ning. Ning had no idea that Rouxue would go to the extent of getting in touch with a person asking him to ruin Ningpletely.
Shangguan Rouxue had been devious beyond Nings imagination. Ning had never harmed Shangguan Rouxue. In fact, Shangguan Rouxue owed Ning a lot for all the privileges in her life, but it was obvious that Shangguan Rouxue had conveniently overlooked all that.
Instead, she kepting up with horrible tricks to set up Ning.
Seeing that she was still looking worried, Jing Yichen kissed her forehead andforted her by saying, Baby, all that is in the past. No one is going to hurt you again. Anyone who dares to do that will pay for it. I promise.
Shangguan Ning kissed him back and felt slightly calmer. She regained herposure and said, I am not a martyr, that I will allow these people to walk over me like that. I refuse to sit back and watch. I will avenge myself and I have nothing to worry about as long as I have you by my side.
Jing Yichen thought that this was his biggest achievement in life, that he had be someone Shangguan Ning could rely on.
Earlier, he focussed on getting bigger, better and stronger because he wanted his fathers approval. He wanted Grandma Mo to love him. He wanted to beat Jing Yiran. The reasons were various, but right now, none of that mattered.
Right now, he wanted to be strong because he wanted to make the woman in his arms, live a happier and a more stable life. Thats the least he could do for her.
I will always stand beside you, and you dont need to be worried about anything at all. You can do anything you want, and no matter how much trouble you make, there will be no one who can dare to do anything to you. I am strong enough to spoil my woman and handle it.
He sounded proud and powerful, yet gentle and pampering. He made Shangguan Ning feel so happy that she wanted to shed tears of joy.
She even thought that she would be able to get over Guo Shuais humiliation of her. It didnt matter when she had Jing Yichen with her.
When she was in trouble, he had sent the helicopter to the school, for her sake. As a result, the story was in all the local newspapers, the following day. Rich man tries to amuse beautiful girl by sending a luxurious helicopter to pick her up C the paper had read.
At that time, she was lying in his bed wearing his pyjamas, lying in his arms in a state ofa.
Jing Yichen also thought of those days.
He didnt try to hide his affection. Instead, he massaged Shangguan Nings back and said softly, At that time, I wanted to ask you to be my wife, but I thought that this idea might sound a bit ridiculous to you, so I didnt dare to ask you anything, fearing that I would have scared you.
Shangguan Ning smiled. She continued to hold him and whispered. I wouldve thought that getting married to you was a ridiculous idea. Im d you didnt suggest it. If you had mentioned it then, I wouldve have run away in fright.
The couple reminisced about the memory of their first meeting, while theyy in each others arms, on this quiet night. Their heartstrings were pulled, causing ripples inside.
The happiest part about being a couple in love, was to think about the past and realize that they had always been in love with each other and even their first meeting had been unknowingly etched onto their hearts, to be cherished eternally.
...
Jing Yiran did leave the hospital on his back rather than on his feet, in ordance to what Mu Qing had promised.
Before he left the hospital, Shangguan Rouxue found an opportunity to meet him.
Shangguan Rouxue was a woman with umpteen schemes up her sleeve. She was cold hearted and rarely did any good. More importantly, she had many a score to settle with Ning. Anyone or anything that harmed Shangguan Ning, would directly affect Jing Yichen. If something affected Jing Yichen adversely, it automatically piqued Jing Yirans interest.
Jing Yiran had broken a rib or two. He had to lie in the hospital bed and had restricted movement. He was unable to do most things, leave alone being able to make moves on a woman. That was exactly why Shangguan Rouxue got to meet him, without hinderance.
Otherwise, Grandma Mo would not have even allowed a female fly to get into her grandsons ward.
I want to coborate with you. Are you interested? Shangguan Rouxue was slightly surprised to see Jing Yiran in this condition. She wondered how he hurt himself so badly. She was smart enough not to ask anything, though. She just got to the point directly.
She already knew that a man like Jing Yiran was capable of anything, if instigated, so she thought it would be best if she stuck to her agenda and did not ask him prying questions.

Jing Yiran may have been hurt and his appearance may have looked unkempt but he was still extremely good-looking.
He smirked. Even lying on a hospital sick bed, in a baggy hospital gown, he looked so tempting that Shangguan Rouxues heart skipped a beat.
Whether or not I am interested depends on how you intend to pay me and how tempting the payment is. I have fooled around with all kinds of women, except pregnant women. So what do you can think about coborating with me in bed?
Shangguan Rouxues face flushed with colour. There was an awkward silence but she let the moment pass. There was more than one way to tackle this guy without offending him. You are funny, Second Master of Family Jing. I suppose that Shangguan Ning is much more interesting than me.
For some reason, Jing Yirans heart throbbed faster, hearing this name.
Shangguan Zhengs daughters were both very beautiful, but Shangguan Ning was different from Shangguan Rouxue in many ways. The main difference being, their intentions. Shangguan Ning had pure intentions and didnt harm anyone intentionally. Her face mirrored her emotions, so it was easy to read her mind. She wasnt two-faced and hypocritical.
Shangguan Rouxue looked kind and innocent, but that was a mask she wore in public. She looked very attractive but there was something about her that didnt seem right.
Jing Yiran was also a man who wore a simr facade. He was always nning something sinister every single day. This could be probably why he disliked Shangguan Rouxue, who was equally cunning. He couldnt help wanting Shangguan Ning, who was pure and unadulterated.
People always wanted to pursue what they didnt have.
Jing Yiran was never going to disclose his innermost thoughts to Shangguan Rouxue or anyone else. He still maintained a casual stance, I like all beautiful women, and Shangguan Ning is no exception. Theres a huge difference between the two of you, the main one being, you are already at my door. How could I ever let you leave here, unscathed?
They talked for half an hour before Shangguan Rouxue left. Before leaving the premises, she wore a pair of dark sunsses and a cap on her head, to avoid being recognised.
Half a monthter, Xie Zhuojun agreed to host a wedding celebratory get together, after Shangguan Rouxue gently urged him to.
The truth was that Shangguan Rouxue was eager to abort her child and resume her career as a television hostess. That would only act as a stop gap to achieve her childhood dream of bing an actress.She wanted to stand on the glorious stage that acting provided, so that everyone could admire her beauty. Even Xie Zhuojun would love her more.
Shangguan Zheng and Yang Wenshu kept insisting that the wedding be held soon as well. Family Xie was in an awkward position, what with Shangguan Rouxue carrying their sons child. They couldnt dy the wedding any further.
When it came to Xie Zhuojun, it didnt matter whether or not the wedding party was thrown. He had already married Shangguan Rouxue and they were already going to have a baby. They were legally married anyway.
Over thest year, when things were better between him and Rouxue, he had nned a romantic and luxurious wedding for the both of them. In his current state of mind, nning such a wedding was not something he wanted to focus upon. He hired a wedding nningpany to finish the errand as soon as possible, because Family Xies business had been doing terriblytely. Problems popped up everyday. Many coborators refused to continue to work with them for some reason, so thepanys produce was piling up in their godowns. Thepany was facing tremendous losses.
There was a red and gold wedding invite lying on Shangguan Nings desk. When she opened it, her gentle face turned expressionless.
These two people were totally shameless. Hadnt she made enough of a fuss at their engagement party that they still wanted her to be at their wedding?
If she didnt send a small surprise to the newly-wedded couple, their effort and their invite, would both be in vain.
Both Family Xie and Family Shangguan were socially renowned families in A City. Although they both were facing their own crisis recently, their public persona was that of wealthy and glorious families, in other peoples eyes.
Most guests at the wedding were unaware that Shangguan Rouxue had been sacked by the TV Station.
The wedding was hosted at a luxurious vi of Family Xie, on the outskirts of the city. Summer was already here and green grass grew everywhere in the vi garden. Flowers of different hues bloomed all over, making it an extremely scenic venue.
Dressed in a white gown, Shangguan Rouxue was wearing exquisite makeup and her hair was pulled up in a bun, highlighting her beautiful face.
She smiled happily, hardly able to suppress her joy.
Everyone around her congratted her for finding a wonderful husband in Xie Zhoujun. Family Xie held property worth of millions of yuan, which was a lot, though it wasnt muchpared to Jingsheng Enterprise and Family Jis enterprise. That being said, Family Xie were still one of the wealthiest families in A City.
Xie Zhuojun stood beside Shangguan Rouxue and greeted every guest who came to the wedding.
If he had not known the true face of Shangguan Rouxue, all of these customs and ceremonies would have held a lot of meaning.
He forced himself not to think about her dark side as he watched her chatting with the guests, looking so demure and beautiful. He finally felt a little bit of joy of getting married, when he saw all the men eyeing him enviously.
The wedding ceremony was going to start soon. Xie Zhuojuns eyes scanned across the entire banquet hall looking for Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Rouxues heart was full of anger and hatred for Zhoujun, when she saw him look around the room. She held hands with him and said sadly, Zhuojun, do you think that Sister is still angry with me? Do you think that she wille?
Xie Zhuojuns rtionship with her had gotten better during thest few days and it felt as if they were back to their courtship days, when the viin was still pretending to be the nice guy, whilst the victim was still being lied to.
He patted Shangguan Rouxues hands and said softly, It doesnt matter if anyonees for the wedding or not. It ispletely eptable if she doesnt show up. Come on, the wedding starts soon, isnt that what you have been waiting for?
In the spacious banquet hall inside the vi, the audience wasfortably seated and they waited in anticipation for the arrival of the soon to be betrothed couple.
Xie Zhuojun came in first. He stood at the very front, and Shangguan Rouxue walked in next, holding on to the arms of her father, guidance of Shangguan Zheng,who walked by her side and led his daughter to the altar.
The bride and the groom held hands and started to say their vows, while the priest looked on.
Do the bride and groom agree to take each other, love each other and be with each other, in happiness and in pain, in health and in sickness, for the rest of their lives?
I...
Before they finished saying I do in unison, the gates of the banquet hall flew open with a bang, breaking the sanctity of the most important moment of Shangguan Rouxues life.
Everyone turned their heads towards the gate.
It was considered a taboo when wedding vows were interrupted. It was very inauspicious.
Who was that?
So rude and so undisciplined, so as to interrupt the wedding vows of the couple!
Werent there rows of security guards outside, to prevent any intruders?
Against the piercing sunlight, a thin silhouette entered the hall. Dressed in ck, she stood out against the whites that adorned the hall.
Behind her were dozens of armed bodyguards.
Painful groans could be heard from the yard. Apparently, the security guards of the two families had been beaten up and were screaming in pain.
The person said,I hope I am not toote.

Many guests recognized this woman who had just arrived. They couldnt help but feel uneasy at the sight of her troop and started to whisper amongst each other.
On Xie Zhuojun and Shangguan Rouxues engagement party, it had been this womans appearance that messed the entire engagement party up. Her man was even more cruel than she was, by ignoring everyones safety and aiming at everyone with guns, scaring away all the guests off the banquet.
Why was she here again?
How much did she hate this couple so that she woulde and ruin their engagement party and then the wedding?
Shangguan Zheng and Yang Wenshu who were seated in the front, stood up furiously.
Shangguan Rouxues face had gone pale. Although she had asked Xie Zhuojun to send the invitation to Shangguan Ning, she hoped that Shangguan Ning wouldnte and ruin the wedding which she had been looking forward to for so many years!
She hoped that Jing Yiran would take down Shangguan Ning at the wedding!
Otherwise she would get extremely furious if her wedding was interrupted halfway!
What made Shangguan Rouxue even more furious and heart-broken was that Xie Zhuojun smiled at the sight of Shangguan Ning!
It was Shangguan Rouxue who was married to him rather than Shangguan Ning, and he was able tough even when their vow was broken.
Nails sunk deeply into her flesh, but Shangguan Rouxue held her temper and refused to say anything.
She was the bride, and what she needed to do was show a wronged and sad face on her wedding being interrupted. As for the rest, there would be someone who will do it for her.
Sure enough, Shangguan Zheng shouted angrily in the following moment. His loud voice echoed across the hall. Get out of here, Shangguan Ning! Someone drag her off! The wedding needs to continue!
He couldnt tolerate that Shangguan Ning would make him lose his face in front of so many people. What he couldnt tolerate more was that if this wedding was ruined, he would lose the official position without Family Xies help!
Shangguan Ning turned a deaf ear to him and continued to walk into the hall with her group of bodyguards as if she were strolling in her own garden.
You dont need to call out for anyone, father. I have made sure that they wouldnte! I am not leaving, and I, as the elder sister, shouldnt be absent from my younger sisters wedding, right?
Shangguan Ning had a smile on her face, but she sounded cold.
The guests who didnt recognize her got astonished by how she had addressed the hosts.
So she was Shangguan Zhengs daughter? Shanggguan Rouxues elder sister? Why was this never known? And how could she be so cruel as to ruin her own sisters wedding?
Shangguan Zheng almost passed out in fury. Mr. & Mrs. Xie had a very bad expression on their faces as they stood next to him. They had not expected that Shangguan Ning woulde and ruin the wedding as well.
In order to guarantee that the wedding could go smoothly, they had spentrge amounts of money, hiring dozens of security guards from securitypanies. Yet none of them were able to stop Shangguan Ning.
No one knew that Shangguan Ning had married Jing Yichen, the heir of Family Jing and the President of Jingsheng Enterprise. Shangguan Zheng had never mentioned this to anyone in the family or to Family Xie, because he felt himself losing self-esteem to have been pressed down and threatened by Jing Yichen. He was also worried that if Xie Dongfeng knew that he had offended Jing Yichen, he would immediately get away from him or even stop Xie Zhuojun from marrying Shangguan Rouxue.
Family Jing was a powerful family whom Family Xie wouldnt dare to offend. Even Family Ji, which was a splendid family in A City, would not dare to irritate Family Jing.
Because it was impossible to understand how powerful Family Jing was. Superficially speaking, Jingsheng Enterprise was the only one that Family Jing had, but as a matter of fact, there were numerous subordinated institutions down below and their power covered all possible aspects, including medical field,nd nning, financial system, security police and other kinds of illegal fields as well.
Family Jing had dipped their hands into all corners of all sses and fields. Therefore, no one dared to touch this enormous family.
Jing Yichen, the new heir of Family Jing, was extremely low-profiled and mysterious. Almost no one knew what he looked like, yet his legendary stories had been spread across the entire A City, and he was regarded as a man of God.
People who knew the story understood that it was he who had driven off Mayor Ji Minyu, and her career was ruined. What was more, tens of billions of yuan were taken from Family Jis enterprise, which is why the stock price of Family Ji dropped tremendously.
Once people knew about Jing Yichens attitude towards Shangguan Zheng, everyone would stay away from him.
Even if he said that Jing Yichen was his son-inw, it would not work, because as everyone could see, Shangguan Ning didnt treat him as her own father and she had argued with him many times.
Fearing Jing Yichens ability and his love towards Shangguan Ning, Shangguan Zheng had to keep silent howsoever much angry he was.
He was afraid that if he annoyed Jing Yichen, his precarious position as the Deputy Mayor would be lost immediately.
Yang Wenshu didnt care much. She hated Shangguan Ning to the bones, and when she saw hering to ruin her daughters wedding, she lost controlpletely and ran towards Shangguan Ning with a knife, screaming and trying to rip her off face.
Yang Wenshu had this knife with her wherever she went. After the face which she had been so proud of, was ruined by Shangguan Ning, she became sinister and extreme. She failed to disguise herself in front of others apart from Shangguan Zheng, because she had already been too unkind for too long.
Shangguan Zheng refused to look at her. If it had not been the fact that divorce would cause bad influence upon his official position, he would have divorced her ages ago.
Seeing that Yang Wenshu was running towards Shangguan Nings face with a knife, he got so scared that cold sweat trickled down his body. If anything happened to Shangguan Ning today, they would all be dead.
Luckily, the bodyguards next to Shangguan Ning were all experienced and skilled. It was a piece of cake for them to stop Yang Wenshu.
A bone-cracking sound broke the silent hall, followed by Yang Wenshus horrible scream. Her arm was broken, and the sharp knife that she had held, pierced her upper arm. Blood gushed out.
Shangguan Rouxue immediately stopped pretending and let out a horrified cry of Mom and dashed towards Yang Wenshu. She held her arm in concern. Mom, how are you? I will send you to the hospital right away, please dont scare me!
Sister, how can you be so cruel! That is how you pay back the woman who brought you up? I wont me you for ruining my wedding, but you shouldnt have hurt my mother. You disappoint me.
Having disguised it for so many years, Shangguan Rouxue finally showed her hatred towards Shangguan Ning in front of the public for the very first time at this moment. But she had caught the right moment and the right temper of hating her because Shangguan Ning had hurt her mother.
Shangguan Ning looked down at her from amanding view. The sunlight of the early summer sprinkled over her cold face. It was a warm gaze, but it didnt have any warmth at all.

Thinking of what Shangguan Rouxue had asked Guo Shuai to do to her, Shangguan Ning didnt feel any mercy. She said coldly, I am here to take revenge. Hurt? Are you so shameless to talk about hurt with me? You know pretty well how you have treated me.
She turned around and stretched out her hands to Lee Duo who was closest to her. Get me the lighter.
Although Lee Duo had no idea what she wanted to do, he still scooped out a lighter from the pocket and passed it to her courteously.
Shangguan Ning turned on the lighter and blue me came out of the wind-proof lighter as a cold smile hovered on her lips.
She walked up to the exquisite boxes where the guests had left their red packets, then lit it up under the astonished stare of everybody.
The box contained at least millions of cash and it soon burnt up, gripping everybodys heart at the banquet.
Wang Lu rushed out directly and shouted furiously. Shangguan Ning, stop right now! We will show no mercy if you continue to act so unruly!
Standing next to his wife, Xie Dongfeng also turned to look at Shangguan Ning in fury. He was from the army and he could summon all the trained soldiers from his team to fight against Shangguan Nings bodyguards C they wouldnt be a match.
With a cold face, he didnt speak a thing. What Shangguan Ning had done was already beyond his tolerance. He would have summoned his army people already if she had not been Shangguan Zhengs daughter.
Seeing the money box burning harder and harder, and Wang Lu unable to put the fire off, Shangguan Ning smiled.
Then, she came to Shangguan Rouxue, and put the lighter on her beautiful and expensive white wedding dress.
The dress started burning immediately, and Shangguan Rouxue let out a loud scream, trying to put off the fire in panic.
This was her most beautiful wedding dress for today asion. What would she wear if it was ruined?
Are you crazy?! Shangguan Ning! Shangguan Rouxue bellowed and watched her beloved wedding dress turning into ashes.
It became chaotic everywhere. Some guests were watching the show quietly and some were very angry and thought Shangguan Ning as someone who was too cruel!
Many people were whispering and someone said, This woman is so shallow. Why cant they solve the problems privately. What is the point of making a fuss at the wedding? She couldnt have been deprived of her fianc, could she?
Some informed man whispered instantly. Didnt you know that this woman was deprived of her fianc! The son of Family Xie used to be engaged with her when he was still a vegetative man. When he woke up he fell for the sister instead. Do you think that she can tolerate that?
Exactly! You werent at the engagement party now, were you? It was even more scary. We better go when we have a chance, or we might lose our lives when this womans husbandes!
What? We could be in fatal danger?
Ignoring the noisy guests and Shangguan Rouxues scream or Yang Wenshu who was lying on the floor and who stared at her with a killing look, Shangguan Ning turned around and asked for one more lighter from Lee Duo and lit up the red carpet. Then she turned to the bodyguards behind her and said politely, Burn everything that can be burned and smash everything that cant be burnt. Leave nothing behind!
The bodyguards answered yes, disying a powerful will.
Hearing these words, the guests ran out screaming, making a huge mess on the scene.
Shangguan Zheng got so furious that he almost passed out. But he had experienced the trouble before so he dared not to annoy Shangguan Ning any more.
Wang Lu tried hard to prevent guests from leaving whilst Xie Dongfeng started to call the current general, who used to be his old army mate.
But the moment the phone went through, his old army mate whom he used to for matters of life and death, said quickly in panic, Sorry, Xie, I cant help you at all. Find somebody else and dont call me anymore.
He hung up the phone as if avoiding the gue after saying only two sentences.
Xie Dongfeng stood stiffly.
What was going on!?
His old arm mate had a very close rtionship with him. They were not only tightly tied with each other, but also shared mutual interest. He could not have kicked him off without a reason!
Also, he seemed to understand what he had been asking him for.
The arrogant and proud man emerged in Xie Dongfengs brain.
Could it have been him?
But how could that be possible?
It had to be someone who had deep rtionships and strong power to be able to transfer the army?
Who was the man beside Shangguan Ning?
Within moments, Xie Dongfeng saw the scene getting chaotic. The wedding had turned into a sea of fire, where the guests dashed off into different corners, his wife was extremely anxious, Yang Wenshuy in aa on the floor whilst Shangguan Rouxue shed tears helplessly, sitting on the floor.
Shangguan Zheng and he were the only left who were not panicking.
But his son Xie Zhuojun walked straight to Shangguan Ning as if he had no awareness of anything that was going on at the moment.
Shangguan Nings gentle and smooth face looked very cold against the fire and the sunlight, when she saw Xie Zhuojuning to her.
She said coldly, This is what you owe me and from today on, your life will not be peaceful again!
Xie Zhuojuns head started to ache again. During the past few days, he would suffer from terrible headache whenever he extremely furious. The painkillers used to work but now they didnt work any more. He had to bear the pain.
During the past few days, he had not only handled many issues at thepany but also needed to take care of the wedding and to deal with the perpetual irritating matters of Shangguan Rouxue and Yang Wenshu. He had found no time to get a check up done at the hospital.
He got a feeling that there was something wrong with his physical condition, and this was very simr to the feeling he got when he just woke up from thea. He was feeling anxious.
But at this moment, he didnt care about the terrible signaling from his body. He said hoarsely, Ning, must you be so cruel? Are you still angry about what happened earlier? You are just like Xue who has totally changed!
This was his wedding and even though he didnt love Shangguan Rouxue any more, yet he couldnt tolerate that this important event was ruined in this way. How would he be able to face his rtives and friends? People wouldugh at him and sneer at him behind his back!
Shangguan Ning said lightly. I warned you many times not to annoy me. But you didnt listen. You thought that as long as you are happy, you can do anything you want to torment me. Now, I will make your wishese true!
She took over a very nicely packed box from Lee Duos hands and passed it over to Xie Zhuojun. She looked at him with a strange expression. This is your wedding present, and I am sure that you and your wife will like it. Wish you all the best and happiness forever!

After Shangguan Ning finished talking, she walked out of the zing vi alongwith with Lee Duo, without looking again at Xie Zhuojun.
Xie Zhuojun felt really tired and angry. Tolerating the headache, he opened the box warily.
When he saw what was lying in the box, he trembled and the box dropped to the floor with a loud noise, scattered the contents all over. The letters and pictures from within went flying in all directions.
Shangguan Rouxue, who was standing next to Yang Wenshu, wanted to send her to the hospital whilst cursing Jing Yiran tens of hundreds of times inside her heart for lying to her. He hadnte and taken Shangguan Ning away for the torture as he had promised!
She saw Shangguan Ning giving a red box to Xie Zhuojun whose face turned weird at the sight of the box.
What was that?
Shangguan Rouxue panicked. When she picked up one of the pictures from the floor and found that she was in the picture, she almost passed out.
Zhuojun, please listen to me. All these are fake. All of them! Dont be influenced by her. She just wants to separate us, Zhuojun!
Wang Lu had also noticed her sons reaction. She walked towards him and picked up one of the pictures only to find Shangguan Rouxue sitting on the thighs of different men, drinking with them in revealing clothes.
She looked at all the pictures and found that they all showed Shangguan Rouxue in her teens and 20s!
She picked up the letters and read them one after another.
All of these were written by her to other girls several years ago. All contained the same content C Xie Zhuojun loved Shangguan Rouxue only and everyone else must stay away from him.
Wang Lu face burned with anger as she said with teeth clenched, Shangguan Rouxue! What a shameless bitch you are! Zhuojun is so unlucky to have married you.
Having said these words, she threw all the pictures and letters onto Shangguan Rouxue, held her sons arm and left.
Jing Yichen was standing outside the vi and treading the message on the phone C Master Jing, military issue solved, Xie Dongfengs wings broken.
Xie Dongfeng wasnt someone to fear. What made him angry was Jing Yiran, who had already been punched badly by him.
If you think that your rib bones are too much for you, tell Mu Qing directly, so that he can remove them all next time you have an operation.They can escape being broken by me the next time.
No one dared to touch Jing Yiran because of his identity, even Jing Yichens men would not dare to touch him easily. So every time it was Jing Yichen who had beaten him badly.
Jing Yiran was already used to his punches, and he ignored the physical pain. But he wasnt smiling at this moment like usual. Instead, he said furiously, How did you know that I was here?
That he nned toe to Shangguan Rouxues wedding to take Shangguan Ning away waspletely confidential. Even Shangguan Rouxue didnt get a message from him that he would being there.
For security reasons, he had hid himself in another vi opposite Family Xies vi before Shangguan Ning came.
But Jing Yichen had still found him!
All of a sudden, Jing Yiran thought of something and smashed the phone onto the ground and his face changed. You tapped my phone and you followed me. Jing Yichen, you have broken the rules which father set up.
Then, he started tough crazily. Haha, great! You broke the rules. Now half of Jingsheng Enterprise will be inherited by me. From today on, you are not the only heir to the Enterprise. Jing Yichen, you have lost half of your properties!
In order to keep the two brothers in check, Jing Zhongxiu had made dozens of family rules. One of them was that they were allowed topete with each other, but not allowed to tap or follow the other person. If Jing Yichen broke the rules, then half the inheritance shall have to be given up by him. If Jing Yiran broke the rules, then he shall leave Family Jing with Zhang Rong and stay away forever.
Jing Yiran, who was already in a disadvantageous position, was discovered by Jing Yichen for all of his hidden abilities and lost everything he had.
Therefore, Jing Zhongxiu made the strict family rules so that the person who broke the rules would answer to dire consequences.
But Jing Yichen didnt seem to care so much about that. Without changing his expression, he said calmly, You can get happy when you actually get a hold of the other half of inheritance.
Previously, Jing Yichen had tried all he could to keep his right of inheritance whilst trying to drive away Zhang Rong and Jing Yiran so that they lived a terrible life.
But after Jing Yichen found Shangguan Ning in his life, he didnt care so much about his right or inheritance. In this way, he was more capable to do anything he wanted to deal with Jing Yiran and Zhang Rong.
For example, today, he found out Jing Yiran easily so that Shangguan Ning was saved timely.
Otherwise, Jing Yiran would have put Shangguan Ning in a very dangerous ce thanks to his personality.
He was definitely undoubtedly going to take Shangguan Ning as his trading hostage!
Jing Yichen couldnt kill Jing Yiran, so every time he punched him until he lost consciousness but has to let him go however much he hated him.
Jing Yiran had been getting hurt too frequently recently, and Jing Zhongxiu had warned Yichen many times that if he ever punched him again, Jing Yiran would get even more properties!
So Jing Yichen only gave him superficial injuries instead of breaking his arms or legs.
He waved the badly hurt Jing Yiran away and asked his men to send him home.
A doctor had been assigned already and he was ready with all the pills and medical equipment to cure his injuries.
It was burning crazily in the vi, but no one was able to get out.
Standing next to Jing Yichen, Tiger kept reporting to him about what was going on inside.
Master, the Lady has burnt all the red pocket money for the wedding!
Great! Does she have enough lighters?
Master, the Lady has burnt down Family Xies vi and smashed everything!
Great! Did she hurt her hands?
Master, the Lady has given the present to Xie Zhuojun and everyone present has got hold of Shangguan Rouxues old pictures.
Great! Anyone who hasnt got the pictures?
Master, the Lady is out!
Oh? So fast? I wille get her.

The moment Shangguan Ning walked out of the vi, Jing Yichen walked up to her.
He looked at his wife with a gentle expression. Stretching out his long fingers, he smoothed her slightly unkempt hair and put it behind her exquisite, white ears. In a sexy, low voice, he said, Was the punishment too light?
Shangguan Nings crystal-clear eyes widened in surprise. Too light? Maybe its too severe!
She had ruined the wedding, burnt down the vi and gave Xie Zhuojun such a huge present. Probably the two families had gone into chaos and lost their faces in front of all the guests, enough to be too embarrassed to meet anyone in the near future!
It was already a severe punishment for Family Xie and Shangguan Rouxue, who cared so much about their reputation.
Jing Yichen smiled in a indulging way. He didnt think that there was anything wrong with his wifes destructive actions at the wedding. He took hold of her soft hand and guided her into the car whilst protecting her head against the door. Then he slid down next to her and asked Tiger to drive them towards home.
He said calmly, She should have died for what she did to you earlier. Also, she had nned to have this wedding interrupted, because she had nned with Jing Yiran to lure you here. So she deserves everything that happened today.
Shangguan Ning hadnt known that the reason why Shangguan Rouxue wanted her toe.
She knew that she was going to ruin the wedding and still wanted the invitation delivered!
But didnt she love Xie Zhuojun so much? Hadnt she waited for this wedding for so many years? She would rather hurt her step sister than keep her wedding going smoothly!!
After venting her anger, Shangguan Ning felt much better inside. After all, if Zhao Anan had not found her in time, she would have lost her virginity because of Shangguan Rouxues vicious n in the school.
Also, she got engaged with Xie Zhuojun when she was neen years old, and after two years of her taking care of him, he had broken off the engagement in a ruthless manner. The p she gave him was way too little!
The couple arrived home and had not yet eaten lunch when Jing Yichen was called away by Jing Zhongxiu.
Shangguan Ning could hear that Jing Zhongxiu sounded extremely furious on phone.
Worried, she drove to Family Jings vi after Jing Yichen left.
All the security men at Family Jing knew Shangguan Ning, not only because she was the Lady, but mainly because Second Master had been sent home half dead by Jing Yichen several months in a row thanks to her!
The security men at Family Jing were all tough men who had been through enough fights. They often took turns taking care of Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran so they knew the brothers very well. The Elder Master, as the tale said, had no interest in women, whilst the Second Master was the opposite. He was interested in all women, but he had taken a liking to very few of them. And even if he did y with a certain woman, he would abandon her after one night like a piece of trash.
Therefore, everyone at Family Jing showed tremendous respect and curiosity towards this woman whom both the masters seemed to have fallen in love with.
It seemed that the Second Master fell for his brothers wife and wanted topete with his brother for her. Yet Elder Master loved his wife so much that he didnt want to let her go. Therefore, these two brothers who had never been in peace with each other to begin with, fell into terrible fights. Right now, the Lord and the Grand-Lord were both involved.
It was being said that because of the Lady, the Elder Master broke the family rules set by the Lord, and he was being forced to hand out half of the inheritance rights to the Second Master.
People who had been working for Family Jing understood clearly that the Second Master differed from the Elder Master and he was the wheel steerer of Jingsheng Emperor. But the Second Master could only pick up the small business to run which the Elder Master didnt want to have.
But if the Elder Master handed out half of the right of inheritance, then the Second Master would speak much louder in the Family too! Then the Elder Master wont be the only decision-maker in Family Jing and Second Master would acquire enormous part of the prosperous properties.
And the cause of all this was only because of the woman who was driving up to the hillside at the moment.
Everyone instantly reported Shangguan Nings arrival one after another all the way to the Butler who was in charge of all the affairs of Family Jing.
The Butler saw the intensive atmosphere in the hall and failed to report the news that Shangguan Ning was on the way in even after several attempts.
The argument between the father and the son had created a sense of scariness as if Mars was crashing into Earth. He, as a mere Butler, had no opportunity to say anything.
Now you are strong enough to ignore me? Yiran is also part of the family and I will not allow him to die in your hands. Family Jing is not yours yet, and you must obey the rules I set. Hand out half of the properties to him. Jing Zhongxius voice was almost ruthless, exactly the same as Jing Yichens voice when he got furious, bossy and intimidating.
Jing Yichen sounded even more bossy and intimidating than him. He was even colder and more heartless. Family Jing has always been mine. No one else is allowed to touch it! He is just a love child, and tell him to dream about getting the properties! I will keep beating him until he dies. My mother Zhao Qing died because of you, and she will always be the hostess of this family. Not any random woman can be Mrs. Jing!! I will make sure that shameless woman gets out of this ce with her son.
Jing Zhongxiu got so furious by his words that his face paled in anger. Zhao Qings death had always been the eternal pain in his heart, which was something no one else dared to mention and which was what Jing Yichen always used to poke at his heart.
Although he had married Zhang Rong after Zhao Qing died, he never touched her. They were just a couple on the surface!
He didnt even want to meet Zhang Rong, because the moment he saw her, he would be reminded of her trick to drive Zhao Qing out of the family because of which she was killed in a car ident.
But Jing Yiran was innocent, and he hadnt made any mistakes.
If it hadnt been for Jing Yiran, Jing Zhongxiu would absolutely not have married Zhang Rong. He gave Zhang Rong a name for the sake of Jing Yiran.
He was Jing Zhongxius son, and even if he was born because Zhang Rong had drugged him, he was still his son.
Since he was born, then he as the father should not ignore him at all!
Shut up now! I have never said that your mother wasnt the hostess here! Get out of here, and as for the right of inheritance, you are out of that as well! Dont ever dare to challenge me because you think you are somehow capable now. I am the one who gave you everything and I can take it back too. You will get nothing if I say so!
Chapter 172 - Jing Yichen Was Slapped on the Fac
Chapter 172: Jing Yichen Was pped on the Face
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Veins popped out of Jing Zhongxius forehead. He had been dominating the business field for dozens of years and had gone through all the ups and downs with hisposure intact. Yet at this very moment, he was not calm. He was heart-broken and furious.
Jing Yichen was the son his wife Zhao Qing gave birth to. He was the hope of his life and the son he loved above all.
He never knew how he and his son had reached this kind of conflicting situation.
He wished desperately that Jing Yichen did to have not experienced what had happened in the past. He was sadder than anybody else about Zhao Qings death.
But Jing Yichen didnt want to let go of it. He said coldly, Want my right of inheritance? It is fine. Then you must make an announcement of cancelling the marital rtionship between you and my mother immediately and announce the identity of this love-child to the entire world. I will be away from Family Jing directly and I want nothing other than the dowry mother brought with her. I can name myself Zhao rather than Jing.
Not able to tolerate any more, Jing Zhongxiu pped Jing Yichen hard on the face.
Jing Yichen stood there straight, unmoved. He stared at him with a cold look.
Right at that moment, a womans loud voice rose. Yichen!
The father-son duo who were standing facing each other in the living room, turned their heads towards the door instantly. Anger disappeared from both their faces when they saw the woman at the door.
The intense atmosphere at home disappeared immediately. The Butler standing at the door let out a sigh of relief. He wiped off the sweat on his forehead and felt relieved. The savior is finally here.
Only this Lady was able to silence the father and the son and drive away their anger at the same time. Even the old Lady and the Grand-Lord couldnt have helped.
He greeted Shangguan Ning courteously. Greetings, Lady!
Not stopping to return his greeting, Shangguan Ning ran to the living room.
She stretched out her arms and stood in front of Jing Yichen. She said to Jing Zhongxiu unhappily, Father, what did Yichen do so that you threw such a fit? You can p me, but dont p him.
The anger on Jing Zhongxius face was gonepletely. Although he wasnt smiling at Shangguan Ning like usual, he became calm. That astonished the Butler standing beside them.
Jing Zhongxiu hadnt touched Jing Yichen after he grew up. He just got too annoyed by what he said a moment ago because of which he pped him.
Actually, he regretted the moment he did it.
He wasnt an expressive person and he didnt know how to get on well with his son. Therefore, their rtionship kept getting stiffer during the past thirty years until Shangguan Ning married Jing Yichen.
The anger inside Jing Zhongxiu dispersed when he saw Shangguan Nings unhappy face. He said in a gentle voice, It has nothing to do with you. He did something wrong and you dont need to protect him, and you dont need to be pped for him. He is used to fights and it is fine to get punched a few times.
I dont care. You mustnt p him ever. Also, you cant solve the problem even if you p him. If you are annoyed and want to vent your anger, do it at me. I wont be angry with you.
Everyone was afraid of Jing Zhongxiu except for Shangguan Ning. In her impression, he was always an easygoing and loving Uncle, just like her real uncle. So she had nothing to fear when she talked with him.
The more boldly she talked with Jing Zhongxiu, the closer Jing Zhongxiu felt that she was to him. Shangguan Ning was the only person who regarded him as an ordinary senior and a father.
Jing Zhongxiu didnt have a daughter, but two annoying and troublesome sons. Therefore, he always regarded Shangguan Ning as his daughter. Hearing her unreasonable demand in a clear voice, his heart softened.
He said affably, Okay, I wont p him. I got carried away just now. Dont worry, I wont p him any more.
Shangguan Ning remembered very little about Jing Zhongxiu, but Jing Zhongxiu had a very deep impression of her. He had met Shangguan Ning more than once, because he had a very good rtionship with Huang Lihan and there was a long period when Huang Lihan would bring this helpless and motherless Shangguan Ning with him evrywhere. So he kept seeing Shangguan Ning during that time.
He had tied shoces for her, braided for her and peeled the candies for her. All of them were small moments, but for him, they had been a curious and unforgettable experience. He had never treated his own sons in this way, and always kept a serious face in front of his sons.
There was one time when Shangguan Ning took him as Huang Lihan when she was half asleep, and she would call him Uncle as she held his neck in bed drowsily.
Shangguan Ning was only ten years old, an age so tender. She had just lost her mother and she looked so forlorn and loveable.
It was a rare experience in Jing Zhongxius life. At that time, he regarded Shangguan Ning as his daughter and had patted her to sleep clumsily just like how Huang Lihand usually did.
She had been too young to recall any of the above and only remembered being scooped out of the water by Jing Zhongxiu, because that was the longest time when they were together.
But Jing Zhongxiu remembered everything. He even wished that he could have such a loving and cute daughter.
So when he met Shangguan Ning once again and saw her growing into a beautiful girl, he had instantly proposed to Huang Lihan that she should marry his son and be his daughter-inw.
It turned out that he had made a correct decision. Not only did he like Shangguan Ning very much, even his distant, and ruthless elder son liked her too. He had taken such a hasty step to marry her before his father could offer his helping hand.
The elder son had been smart and intelligent. He understood clearly what he wanted and he would not hesitate to get what he wanted to himself. He was stronger than him as a son, and had he fought against his mother Mo Lan about removing the child in Zhang Rongs stomach, then all might have been different.
But it was useless to think about all of these. He only hoped that his son could have a happy life henceforth and he felt pleased to see Shangguan Ning defending him in this way.
Then father, you should keep your words not to p him any more. You must promise. Shangguan Ning was still quite worried, so she asked Jing Zhongxiu for a promise. Her heart was almost broken when she saw Jing Yichen pped just now. Jing Zhongxiu was his father but he shouldnt p him. He was a grown-man and the president of such a huge enterprise and a man whom everyone admired. He shouldnt be treated like this!
Jing Zhongxiu took a look at Jing Yichen who wore a gentle expression because of Shangguan Nings arrival. Then he said calmly, Okay, no more pping. I promise.

Chapter 173: Half of Jingsheng Was Mine!
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Seeing this skinny silhouette standing in front of him, Jing Yichen felt his heart full of warmth. His anger and pain disappeared when he saw her.
No one had ever wanted to stand in front of him without hesitation like this and protect him with her fragile and soft wings.
He was also a human and also had moments of weakness. But he had forgotten what being weak felt like, because he had tried so hard to keep what belonged to him and to fight against the pressure and the trouble from outside. He had not allowed himself to be weak in a long time.
When Shangguan Ning stood with her back facing him, he felt protected and deeply loved.
He was only three years old when Zhao Qing had died. He was innocent and ignorant. He had even forgotten his mothers face. But he still remembered how it felt like to be protected and loved by her.
The feeling Shangguan Ning gave him today, was exactly the same as how he remembered. It was a wonderful feeling of security.
Even the psychological pain caused by Jing Zhongxius p was smoothened by her.
Shangguan Ning really possessed an amazing power. She was not only able to calm him down quickly but also made the serious and distant Jing Zhongxiu be gentle.
Jing Zhongxiu had never treated anyone in such a pleasant way in his life. But he spoiled her and no matter what she said, he would agree with her without getting annoyed.
How Shangguan Ning was treated was way different than how he as the son was treated.
Jing Zhongxiu exchanged a few words with Shangguan Ning and left. He wasnt so good atmunicating with children, not even when they were adults. It was a rare thing that he didnt have a barrier in talking with Shangguan Ning and he had not wanted to break it by scolding his son.
Seeing him gone, Shangguan Ning loosened her defense and turned around to look at Jing Yichens face.
Jing Zhongxiu had pped him hard, leaving a clear print on Jing Yichens handsome face. It looked bad.
Shangguan Ning massaged his face gently. She was feeling angry and anxious. Are you silly? Why didnt you dodge when father pped you? Were you trying to show off how handsome and smart you were by getting pped?
She had seen Jing Yichen getting pped the minute she entered the room. He could have dodged the hit but he had stood there.
Why didnt she know that he was so stubborn!
Jing Yichen covered her soft hands with his own. With a gentle look on his face, he said, Your husband doesnt need to prove his looks or intelligence. But, if I can be protected and cared for by you, I would be ok to be pped many times.
Shangguan Ning noticed that his ck eyes had moisture in them. She became even more heart-broken.
Just like her, he also lost his mother when he was young and had grown up under the shadow of a stepmother. As the saying goes, a stepmother makes a stepfather. So even if Jing Zhongxiu loved Jing Yichen a lot, he hadnt known how to express himself except by being serious and strict. Plus, the maniac Jing Yiran must have made his life chaotic as well. Maybe no one had shown their concern and no one cared about whether or not he was hurt.
You silly man, I have always been concerned about you! Very much! You are indeed more powerful than me, but there will always be a time when you are weak and when you need a shoulder to lean on. I am that shoulder!
Shangguan Ning understood clearly what it felt like to have no one to lean on. Uncle had at least been with her throughout her childhood, and she was a girl who could cry and make a fuss without making others think that she was not strong enough. But Jing Yichen was a man, and a stubborn one, who must have refused to shed a tear. What he could do was to swallow down his bitterness and pain and bear it all alone.
As they were talking, the Butler had alreadye in with the ice bag.
He had been serving Family Jing for so long, and apparently, he was very experienced. Lady, get the ice on Masters face, and he will feel better, or it will be swollen tomorrow.
Jing Yichen still needed to work at Enterprise the next day, and gossip would surely rise if the print on the face was seen by his subordinates.
Shangguan Ning thanked the Butler gratefully, and made Jing Yichen sit on the sofa. She took up ice bag and covered it up with a handkerchief before cing it gently onto his face.
Does it hurt? Tell me if I am putting too much pressure.
Is it too cold? Tell me and then I will give a break and then put it back again.
Seeing her long, jade-like fingers pinching the ice bag and putting it against his face carefully and hearing her caring and considerate words, Jing Yichen felt his heart ripple.
He wasnt a spoiled child! It was just a p, something not even worth a mentionpared to what he had experienced before.
But it felt so nice to be cared by someone. He didnt need to deal with the scary and bloody wounds by hiding in the corner alone any more, and he didnt need to seal his heart any further.
This elegant and beautiful woman in front of her was injecting warmth into his heart with her enormous power.
He lowered his head and was about to give her a kiss on her smooth, white forehead when the sound of pping came from behind, making Jing Yichen halt.
A cold and sinister voice spoke up. What a touching scene! You really are... deeply in love with each other. What a loving couple and I feel so bad that I have to tear you apart. Actually, I always want to be a good man, but I didnt get any chance. What I see is always nice and harmonious things rather than broken families for me to save!
Jing Yichens look froze when he heard the voice.
Ignoring the man, he still gave her the kiss, stood up and led Shangguan Ning towards the door.
Shangguan Ning knew that it was Jing Yiran who hade in. She recognised his voice.
He had a perfect face that was so attractive, but he always talked in such an annoying way that people wanted to punch him to the ground and trample on him several times.
How had Jing Yichen manage to live with this kind of man under the same roof for so long? He must have had a strong willpower to control himself not to kill him when he had to face this annoying man every day.
Shangguan Ning went outside with Jing Yichen after picking up the ice bag.
The couple ignored Jing Yiran altogether, refusing to give him even a look.
Jing Yiran got so angry that he clenched his teeth. Yet this move affected the sound on his face, causing him to take a short breath because of pain.
Seeing them twoing to the door, hand in hand, he shouted with pain. Half of Jingsheng is mine now! I am going to work tomorrow!

Hearing what Jing Yiran said, Shangguan Ning stiffened. She stopped in her steps.
She turned around and asked in astonishment, What did you say?
Seeing that Shangguan Ning finally responded to his words, Jing Yirans mood suddenly improved. It seemed that the wound on his face wasnt that painful any more.
He whistled proudly and his amorous eyes twinkled. Your husbands property has shrunk to half of its size, and he will soon be a total hobo! So, would you consider remarrying? I wont mind a second-hand woman!
Shangguan Ning looked at Jing Yirans proud face and then at Jing Yichens pale one. He was holding her hand tightly enough to crush it.
Was he furious? Or was he... scared of losing her?
Her hand hurt, but Shangguan Nings heart ached more C for Jing Yichen.
He had a weak sense of securitypared to her, and he loved her deeply.
Shangguan Nings expressions turned calm, then she said lightly. But I reject you for being hundred-handed!
Having said the words, she refused to look at Jing Yiran any further. She softly to Jing Yichen, My dear husband, can we leave? I want to go home with you!
Jing Yichen looked calmly at Shangguan Ning and swept her into his arms. Then he scooped her up and strode out of the vi confidently.
The servants dashed off in all directions with their heads lowered at the sight of the couple. They were afraid that if they took a step slower, they would have been killed by the Elder Masters look.
Shangguan Ning had never expected that Jing Yichen would carry her out. Her jade-like face flushed, and then she said in a soft whisper as she looped her arms around his neck. This is not proper...
What face would she have if they were seen by the servants!
But it makes me happy. I cant feel assured until you are in my arms. Be good and dont move. Let me carry you in this way, all the way to the end of our lives.
Jing Yichens voice was calm and didnt show any emotion. But Shangguan Ning could clearly feel his seriousness and deep love when she was leaning against him.
Happiness gushed out of Shangguan Nings heart. She felt as if she were drunk. She could feel his strong heartbeat and felt that she was a woman who owned the entire world.
Seeing a smile hovering over her face, Jing Yichen said softly, You enjoy being carried like this?
Shangguan Ning didnt expect that she was this transparent, so she shook her head in panic but soon nodded bashfully.
She wasnt a woman who was good at lying or hiding. She always said what she wanted to, especially when she was with Jing Yichen. She would always want to tell him her true thoughts and feelings, even if those were words made her flush.
Love needed to be expressed.
Seeing the little woman in his arms, nodding, Jing Yichen finally smiled as well.
Jing Yiran could take whatever he wanted. What he needed to do was to deal with him with all his might and crush Jing Yiranpletely.
But he was not allowed to touch Shangguan Ning, not at all!
If Jing Yiran dared to have any ideas about Shangguan Ning, he was definitely not going to take his father Jing Zhongxius words into consideration and would make him lose all he had, including his life!
No one was allowed to touch Shangguan Ning. She was his woman, and even if she didnt love him, he wouldnt allow her to marry anyone else. But she did love him and that too, deeply!
Jing Yichen was a bossy man. Money could be earned if lost, power could be cultivated if lost, but this woman was the only he liked!
The following day, Shangguan Ning caught sight of Jing Yiran in her office. He was dressed in a coffee-color suit and was wearing an overpowering fragrance.
Sitting on her usual chair, he ced his long legs upon her desk as he flipped through the deck of materials which she had sorted.
On the corner of the desk stood arge bunch of eye-attracting blue roses. Apparently, those had been brought to the desk by Jing Yiran.
Shangguan Ning came to the desk and threw those roses into the dustbin. Then she said calmly, Get out! This is my office. You are the Second Master of Family Jing and you would beughed at, if people hear you taking an assistants office!
As long as I can get the beauty, I would be happy to beughed at! So, I will be working here from today on, and you will be my assistant! Jing Yiran didnt care about Shangguan Nings cold attitude. Nor was he pissed that she had thrown the flowers into the dustbin.
She was the only person in the entire world who dared to throw his flowers into the dustbin in front of his face!
Hot personality! And he liked it!
Where did Jing Yichen get this woman from? Why was she so different from others that he had such strong itch to get her?
Jing Yiran flipped through the material which Shangguan Ning had sorted as he massaged his exquisite chin. I thought that you were just an eye candy, but it seems that you do have some knowledge. That is exactly what Ick, so, you can be my knowledge!
Shangguan Ning sneered and said in an uncourteous manner, Sorry, I wont be the assistant to a scumbag. And you have no right to give me any order. Get out of my office, now!
Why dont I have the right to give you an order? I am powerful enough to get a tiny assistant. If you dont want to be my assistant, then I can fire you rightaway, you know.
Shangguan Ning had no idea why Jing Yiran suddenly received half of the inheritance and properties of Jingsheng Enterprise.
It seemed that Jing Yichens huge row with Jing Zhongxiu had originated from this matter.
She had asked Jing Yichen what was going on. But he said nothing except for a calm sentence. Jing Yiran will not be able to get even a penny from Jingsheng Enterprise!
But Jing Yiran came to work at Jingsheng today, which made Shangguan Ning very worried. She hated him but felt it much more today so she didnt bother being polite with him.
You can fire me you want. You are powerful enough to fight only with me, a mere assistant. So incapable!
Jing Yirans face froze. He was about to say something when a serious sounding voice spoke from the door. Second Master, Assistant Shangguan is the Presidents assistant. I am your assistant!
Although Jing Yiran hadnt been to the office building of Jingsheng Enterprise, yet this man had been Jing Zhongxius assistant earlier so he met him several times at home.
He again showed a sinister smile and said carelessly, Assistant Lu, I dont need an old man to be my assistant. I only want a pretty girl, someone just like Ms. Shangguan!
Chapter 175 - Jing Yiran’s Sorrow
Chapter 175: Jing Yirans Sorrow
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
If Second Master wants to hire a female assistant, it is fine l. But we have to report this to the President who is in the middle of a meeting with the four Deputy-Presidents. Till then, I am your assistant. Lu Qing said all of the above in an expressionless voice.
The manner and the tone in which he spoke with Jing Yiran and Jing Yichen were exactly the same C courteous yet upromising.
With Lu Qin beside her, Shangguan Ning was happy that she didnt need to interact with Jing Yiran. Every time that she faced him, she felt uneasy, because he didnt yield under any circumstances and was always so shameless. He was the most difficult person to deal with.
The best way to handle him was probably to leave him alone.
Also, Second Masters office is not on this floor but the floor below us. Pleasee with me.
Jing Yiran struck the table with his hand as he said. I have half of the inheritance here. So, why cant I work on the same floor? I dont want to work below Jing Yichen, I want to work on this floor. And I like this room, only.
I can report that as well to the President after he finishes the meeting. Before that, pleasee with me downstairs.
President all the time! Is he the only one you know? I am the Second Master, and if he is the President, I will be the President too!
Jing Yirans handsome face red up with anger, seeing that Lu Qing wasnt obeying him. He bellowed so loudly that Shangguan Ning shook her head.
So Jing Yiran was also afraid of the nagging Lu Qing!
He got so furious after Lu Qing said a few words. When Jing Yichen had punched him to death, broken his arms, legs and rib bones, he still acted cooly. But now, he was so crazily annoyed!
The President has to approve of the position you want to take up at the enterprise. As for your request of bing the President, then the current Presidents approval is needed even more for that. Before he finishes his meeting and approves your position, you are still the Second Master.
Jing Yiran got so angry that he almost spilled blood because of Lu Qings words.
Not being able to tolerate it anymore, he walked out of Shangguan Nings office and walked into the biggest conference room on that floor. Jing Zhongxiu had given him an ess card of Enterprise before he came here, so that he was able to go onto any floor in the building.
There were 77 floors in Jingsheng Enterprise and the top floor had nine conference rooms for important meetings. The biggest one was for the annual meeting of shareholders.
After Jing Yiran opened the door, he found no one inside. Jing Zhongxiu never allowed him to be involved with the affairs of Jingsheng Enterprise, so he had no idea what was going on in thepany. He had assumed that Jing Yichen would definitely choose the best and biggest room for his meeting as the President.
He quickly went through the nine meeting rooms on the floor and finally found Jing Yichen in thest but smallest meeting room.
The sound of the door opening startled the men in conversation. They all turned towards Jing Yiran and then looked at Jing Yichen, who was sitting at the head of the table.
The contents of their conversation were very confidential, which couldnt be leaked to anyone else, even to Second Master of Family Jing.
But Jing Yichen said calmly, Go on.
Then the four people bent their heads and continued to report their work. Sometimes they would argue fiercely, if their opinions were not in tandem with each other at all. Without saying a word, Jing Yichen listened to their arguments and didnt make the decision till they finished speaking.
Our financial department has been ateer, thus requires faster development. You four can try to get the talent, and each of you must submit the market information. As for the concrete affairs, I will talk with Family Jis Enterprise. We can coborate with them in the early stages and then kick them off when we be stable.
Hearing his decision, the four people nodded and agreed. No one was better than Jing Yichen in negotiations. As long as he bothered to show up, even the Head of Family Jis Enterprise would bend their backs backward.
Meeting dismissed!
By Jing Yichens order, the four powerful Deputy-Presidents in A City stood up and left.
No one even looked at Jing Yiran even once. Ignoring himpletely, they kept talking about the core confidential information of Jingsheng.
It was as if they believed that he would never understand or have a hand in the office affairs.
The moment those people left, three tall foreign men dressed in suits entered the slightlyrger meeting room adjoining this room, under the directions given by Shangguan Ning.
Jing Yiran heard Shangguan Ning speaking Russian and French with the three men fluently, and then Jing Yichen walked past him, ignoring him totally, and entered that meeting room. Just like Shangguan Ning, he also spoke Russian and French with the three men fluently.
Jing Yiran could understand some Russian and French, but it was impossible for him to be as skilled as Jing Yichen in this aspect.
All of a sudden, Jing Yiran felt depressed. He hade to provoke Jing Yichen yet he was the one who had been ignored.
Everyone obeyed Jing Yichen unquestioningly and ignored him as the Second Master of Family Jing.
Was it because he looked too dandiacal in daily life or was it because Jing Yichen was too formidable?
He also felt that although father had given him half of the inheritance, he was not able to make any impact in the inheritance.
Losing excitement and pride, Jing Yiran returned home in depression and annoyance.
The moment he entered the house, Zhang Rong dragged him into the room and asked him eagerly, Did you get to meet the other shareholders at thepany? Were they nice to you? Did they show any interest in cooperating with you? How much money does the Enterprise have? How much can you get?...
So that was what his real mother was like!
She didnt ask him if he was doing well in thepany or he was happy. Nor did she ask him if he was bullied by Jing Yichen. The only thing she asked was how much he could get.
Jing Yiran, who was already very depressed, bellowed angrily, Money all the time. That is the only thing you know. Father gives you so much money, and your bags, your shoes, and each piece of your clothes and jewelry are all worth so much! Why cant you just be a quiet wealthydy? Dont interfere in my business from now one!
He had tried so hard to get the inheritance of Family Jing, not because of money, but because he didnt want to lose to Jing Yichen!
Jing Yichen had kept a tight control on the inheritance not for the sake of money, but for the fact that all of these belonged to him and that no one should touch it!
Jing Yiran left home angrily after that.
Just like, Jing Yichen, he also disliked this home!
He would rather spend his night in nightclubs than in this hollow, luxurious vi.
Mo Lan and Jing Tianyuan had gone abroad early in the morning, so no one restrained Jing Yiran any more and he could go ande as he wanted.
Jing Yiran drove to Family Shangguan in fury. That family was probably in desperate need of his help.
He wanted to be helpful too!
Chapter 176 - Divorce Papers
Chapter 176: Divorce Papers
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
With gauze over her ster covered arm, Yang Wenshu held Shangguan Rouxue into her uninjured arm, crying.
Shangguan Zheng tossed the deck of pictures in front of the mother and daughter, furiously. This is the daughter whom you have brought up? So shameless, she made me lose my face!
All the guests at the wedding had been their close friends and rtives, and many of them were Shangguan Zhengs friends in the political field. All of them had seen the disreputable side of his daughter through those terrible pictures. How was he going to face his peers in the future?
Family Xie wants a divorce now. What do you expect me to say to them? I have lost my reputation in front of Xie Dongfeng,pletely. The family is saying that they want a virtuous daughter-inw rather than a prostitute who drinks and sings on othersps. I have never been so humiliated in my entire life as a man!
Yang Wenshu spoke through her tears, Xue did all these things for this family. She tried so hard only because she wanted to go a step higher! You had refused to help her because you didnt want to be talked about by others behind your back, so she had to do everything herself. As a daughter of the Deputy Mayor, she reached this stage because of her own efforts. But everybody thinks that it is because of you!
If you as the father had helped her get the contact at TV station, she wouldnt have had to work so hard. She wouldnt have to drink with those ugly and demeaning men. She is your daughter. And now she is hurt and you not only refuse to protect or console her, but are getting angry instead. Are you trying to kill her?
Shangguan Zheng smashed a very expensive rose vase kept next to him, and bellowed furiously, How dare you talk back! She is spoiled because of you! if you hadnt indulged her so much, she wouldnt have done such a shameless thing. Family Xie even suspects that this child is not Xie Zhuojuns and are asking for a DNA test. You two have be notorious through the entire A City.
At the mention of Xie Zhuojun, Shangguan Rouxue, who looked like a dull doll and and had been leaning in Yang Wenshus arms, suddenly raised her pale face. She spoke in a trembling voice, Daddy, what did you say? He doesnt believe that this is his child? He wants a DNA test? This child is his! I dont want to do the test! Mom, I dont want to do the test, this is Zhuojuns child, I swear!
Yang Wenshus arm was hurting because of the stabbing, but when she saw her daughter speak to her in such a pitiful way, her heart almost broke. She even forgot about the pain in her arm.
She held Shangguan Rouxue gently and said tearfully. My dear daughter, dont worry. We wont do the DNA test. Xie Zhuojun cant get rid of you so easily!
This was all that bitch Shangguan Nings fault. Had it not been for her, her daughter and Xie Zhuojun would have had a romantic and beautiful wedding and then lived happily ever after. But now the rtions were broken, and everyone was talking about them behind their backs.
While they were arguing, Xie Zhuojun entered the room with a pale face. He ced some papers on the table and addressed Shangguan Rouxue, without even greeting Shangguan Zheng or Yang Wenshu, These are the divorce papers, just sign them.
Hearing his words, Shangguan Rouxue froze. She spoke in a broken voice, What did you say, Zhuojun?
You dont need to do the DNA test. No matter whose child it is, just abort it. I willpensate you for it. We shouldnt allow a child to be born in our already broken marriage. This is the best choice.
Xie Zhuojun had deep ck rings below his eyes, and he had been frowning ever since he had entered the room. He was unshaven and looked as if he had been terribly sick. Looking old and bloated, he seemed to have lost his charm as the Master of Family Xie.
Shangguan Rouxue freed herself from Yang Wenshus arm and copsed at Xie Zhuojuns feet. She held his legs and begged, eyes brimming with tears. Please listen to me, Zhuojun! None of these is true. I have only loved you. You must believe me. This child is yours, and only yours. How could it be anyone elses? You are going to be a father. You cant abandon us. Didnt you always want a child? I will protect him well and give birth to a healthy baby.
Xie Zhuojun said in a tired and cold voice, I cant believe that this is my child. Our marriage ends here, and I dont want the child to be born.
Shangguan Rouxue stood up in panic and held Xie Zhuojuns waist. She said tearfully, If you cant be sure, lets do the DNA test then. I will do it. I am not scared! This child is yours.
Unmoved, Xie Zhuojun pushed Shangguan Rouxue off himself and said without emotion, Just sign it. Text me how much money you want and I will bring it when Ie to pick up the divorce papers tomorrow.
Seeing Xie Zhuojun walk away, Shangguan Rouxue went running after him and shouted, Please dont go, Zhuojun, please dont leave me!
Xie Zhuojun walked out of the vis gate, went to his car and drove off as if he hadnt heard anything.
Seeing that he had gone away so ruthlessly, Shangguan Rouxue copsed onto the ground.
She had been nning this for so many years but eventually she failedpletely to achieve her dream.
Suddenly, a voice behind her spoke calmly, The beautiful hostess of A City copses to the ground, caring nothing about her image. What a touching scene!
Shangguan Rouxue turned around instantly after she heard the voice.
Snap! Jing Yiran clicked her picture on his cellphone.
Well well, you look so nice! Looking like a beggar! I am heartened to see you in such a terrible situation!
He became exceptionally happy seeing the picture where Shangguan Rouxue looked messy and unkempt. He assumed that what he was about to suggest would go very well.
Ignoring Shangguan Rouxe, he strode into the vi.
Yang Wenshu was about to go look for her daughter when she ran into Jing Yiran, who was checking everything around as if he were strolling in his own garden.
Jing Yiran burst into delightedughter at the sight of her. Oh gosh, even you look so horrible. Face ruined and arm broken! Shangguan Ning is exactly like her scumbag husband who likes bullying people to death. It seems that I am going to be the savior for your family after having been a destructor for all of my life!

Chapter 177: Jing Yiran Wants to be a Good Man
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Yang Wenshu had never met Jing Yiran before, so she didnt recognise him. But that didnt stop her from guessing his identity, judging from his behavior.
She could smell a luxurious perfume on him. The suit which he was wearing was tailor-made, outlining his muscled body shape. The wine colored shirt was matched with the tie of the same color and the cor pinch was embedded with shiny, expensive diamonds. The watch around his wrist was the newest version of PatekPhilippe, which was worth half of Family Shangguans vi.
He looked handsome and noble. Anyone looking at him could understand clearly that he belonged to a very wealthy or powerful family.
She wasnt sure why this man woulde to their home, but she definitely wasnt going to leave a bad impression on him. What if he could be used in some way?
What is your family name, Sir? Why did youe to our home without informing or asking us? It wont be our fault if we havent treated you well till now.
Yang Wenshu instantly put on an image of a gentle, nobledy when she spoke with Jing Yiran. Then she pretended to be hospitable as she said to the servants next to her. What are you doing here? I will forgive you this time, but you mustnt treat our guests in this way next time!
But her face was ruined, and she didnt look that kind or gentle any more. With the arm covered in ster and unkempt hair, she was dressed in a set of wrinkled clothes, looking scary rather than noble or fancy.
No wonder Shangguan Rouxue is full of tricks. It is all because you are the one who has taught her well! It would have been impossible for her to be purehearted when she has a mother who is so tricky and wicked. Why did you teach your own daughter these things instead of the other one? I wouldnt have been so desperately attracted to her, otherwise!
Jing Yiran sighed, looking helpless. But his eyes held excitement.
He strode into the living room and sat down into the sofa without greeting Shangguan Zheng.
Shangguan Rouxue and Yang Wenshu followed behind him and stood next to Shangguan Zheng, staring at him with an unfriendly look.
Come, all of you sit down, dont be so courteous! I dont want to look up to others when I am talking! I am only pleased when everyone admires me with their head raised! You three pathetic dogs wont be saved unless I am pleased!
No, no, no, not on the sofa! I am sitting here, see that? You three stupid trash have no right to sit with me. All to the ground, now!
Shangguan Zheng had never been humiliated by anyone since he was born. But now he was beingpared to a dog by Jing Yiran!
Dont be overly proud, Second Master. This is my home. Please get out if you have nothing to say. We are not as powerful as your family, but we are not weak enough to be bullied by others!
Jing Yiran seemed to be in a good mood. He didnt get angry upon hearing those words. Instead, he picked up the empty jug kept on the table and shook his head. I havee to rescue you, and you dont even offer me water! You are so bad at treating guests!
But, I am a nice and kind-hearted man. I dont want to pick on you for this unpleasantness. Go and sit on the floor.
But none of them moved. It was their home and Jing Yiran should not have asked them to sit on the floor.
He wasnt treating them as human beings.
Seeing them unmoved, Jing Yiran stood up all of a sudden, snatched up the water jug and smashed it upon the ss table. With a loud banging sound, it scattered into pieces and flew in all directions, surprising them.
Ignoring their expressions, he brought out a gun from his suit pocket and shot at three sses kept on the table, one after another. The piercing sound of exploding sses as well as shots being fired, was so loud that the chandelier in the living room and the porcin decorations started ttering.
Both Shangguan Rouxue and Yang Wenshu squatted down in fright, screaming loudly. Shangguan Zheng also crawled under the table with hands over his head, fearing that he would be killed by this maniac.
Seeing them all squatting down, Jing Yiran blew into the guns heated muzzle and said calmly, See, why didnt you obey me until I turned bad? Sigh, what a difficult thing to be a good man!
When the shooting stopped, Shangguan Zheng said nervously, Second Master, lets talk, okay? You came to help us, not take our lives, right?
Ignoring him, Jing Yiran continued talking in a friendly tone. Now, everyone sit on the floor. I have told you that I dont like talking with my head raised. See? I had to waste three bullets because of you!
They sat down on the floor, huddled and trembling.
Jing Yiran became themander whilst the three of them were his minions.
Jing Yiran nodded in satisfaction. Then he said to Shangguan Zheng calmly, I can restore your daughters reputation and turn her into a beautiful and shining hostess. She can even be in the movies if she wants to. I can also find the best stic surgeon in the entire world and give back your wifes original face. Most importantly, I can also help you to get the position of Mayor of A City! See, I am here to help you, am I not?
Upon hearing Jing Yirans words, both Shangguan Rouxue and Yang Wenshu were thrilled. They looked at his handsome face, enthusiastically as if he were the savior who hade to rescue them. They had forgotten the humiliating and destructive incident that happened a minute ago.
Listening to Jing Yiransst sentence, Shangguan Zheng started to pant heavily. His eyes reddened, he showed crazy excitement. He said in a low voice, What do you want, Second Master. I will give you anything, no matter whatever you want.
Jing Yiran pped his hands, sinisterly. Haha, excellent! I like doing business with smart people. Dont worry, you have the maximum advantage in this deal. As long as you obey me, you can get anything you want!
Shangguan Zheng had more or less guessed what Jing Yiran wanted in return. But he still found it a bit incredulous. He licked his dry lips and asked anxiously, What do you want, Second Master?
Chapter 178 - Warmth in the Meeting Room
Chapter 178: Warmth in the Meeting Room
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
I have been well fed and dressed since I was young. Ick nothing except for a woman to warm my bed. So, the only one whom I want is Shangguan Ning! I want to marry her and you, as the father, must bring her to me.
Shangguan Zheng took a deep breath.
Sure enough, Jing Yiran also wanted this daughter of his.
Why did the two most nobly born and powerful men in A City fall for Shangguan Ning? What was so special about her?
Shangguan Zheng knew very well how much Jing Yichen cared about Shangguan Ning. It would be extremely difficult to get her from him to begin with, and more importantly, his death was destined if Jing Yichen got to know about it!
Jing Yiran was Jing Yichens younger brother, and after all, Jing Yichen would not create as much trouble for his brother, due to the bloodline.
Jing Yiran was powerful enough to protect himself. But Jing Yichen would not spare anyone else who was involved.
But the position of Mayor of A City was so tempting!! It was something Shangguan Zheng dreamt about every single day and had wanted so much to taste the dominating feeling of trampling every other officer of A City below his feet, for a long time.
Shangguan Zheng kept struggling in his heart. The voice of his aspirations roared C promise him, and you will be the Mayor.
But another voice kept reminding him weakly C n with the tiger, and you will die in the mouth of the tiger.
Jing Yiran seemed to see right through him and knew what he was scared of.
His lips curled into a charming yet sinister smile. Dont worry, that man is not someone to be afraid of. He will soon be a toothless tiger, unable to protect himself. What I need is for you to work with me so that Shangguan Ning can marry me smoothly.
But Ning is already... married. Unless she gets a divorce, she cant be legally married to you. Shangguan Zheng reminded him after a moment of hesitation.
Thats not something which you need to worry about. I have my own way to dilute her marriage!
Shangguan Zheng thought about it some more and then said determinedly, Okay! I will obey your order! I will make sure that my daughter marries you!
Yang Wenshu and Shangguan Rouxue cheered happily after hearing what he had promised.
They both looked forward to getting what they desired. Their eyes were suddenly bright with greed.
In the office of Jingsheng Enterprise, Jing Yichen had just finished the meeting with several foreign partners. He saw Shangguan Ning enter the office after seeing them off.
What confused him was that Shangguan Ning who usually kept a distance on purpose with him in the office and refused to be touched by him, was walking up to him. More importantly, she had locked the door.
Could it be... that she hadnt had enough fun the night before and wanted to make up for it, here?
He tossed the deck of documents aside in a good mood, and took her into his arms sliding his hands around her soft waist. He started to move his fingers inside her white blouse without a moment of hesitation.
Shangguan Ning was surprised and said anxiously, What are you doing, Jing Yichen? Let go of me. This is the meeting room.
Jing Yichen chuckled softly. Oh, so you arent here to seek the warmth? I have misunderstood you. But this misunderstanding feels really wonderful. Dont ask me to stop right now.
Shangguan Ning started to breath heavily. Her white face reddened, looking lovely and charming.
He was someone with powerful self-control and barely lost it. More importantly, he had never mixed work with life previously. He had always beenpletely devoted to his work instead of thinking about anything else.
But Shangguan Ning seemed to be the chink in his armour!
She didnt need to do anything. As long as she stood there and looked the way she was currently looking, his willpower would copse immediately. And she would be the only one in his head.
With this beautiful girl in his arms, he felt no pain or tiredness. Jing Yichen let out a sigh of gratitude.
He nibbled at Shangguan Nings delicate earlobe as his hands kept roaming all over her body. Then he spoke softly in her ear, Lovely nights alwaysst short, making the king want no more to be at work. I want to take you home so badly right now. Why do I need to work so hard when I already have you with me?
Her clothes were crumpled and hair hade undone after sometime. How would she be able to meet anyone when she went out?
Shangguan Ning was amazed by his behavior. She had not expected that Jing Yichen would be so bold as to mess around in the meeting room.
Are you mad?! Let go of me. This is the office and we will be seen. I will be mad at you if you continue to behave this way.
Shangguan Ning kept started buttoning her shirt in panic while trying to push him away in mock anger.
But she wasnt a good actress. That she red at Jing Yichen with a blushing face, was equivalent to throwing him an invitation!
Even her voice was too lustful for Jing Yichen to stop.
Jing Yichen almost lost control. He wanted very much to push Shangguan Ning on the table and grind himself into her.
But he knew pretty well that if he did that, Shangguan Ning would not allow him to touch her for many days.
He mustnt lose the big by taking the small!
Dont worry, no one except for Lu Qing woulde to this floor. Dont be scared, and dont move...
After saying the words, he lowered his head and kissed her delicate face.
Shangguan Ning felt a bit dizzy by his gentle yet intense kiss. She couldnt reject Jing Yichens advances.
After a long time, their kiss finally ended.
Both of them were panting, with their heartbeats beating in unison and flushed faces..
Jing Yichen rubbed his slightly swollen lips before speaking in a hoarse and sexy voice. What is my schedule, Assistant Shangguan?
Shangguan Ning tried to calm herself. Then she told him about the schedule of the afternoon, pinching him on the waist.
Jing Yichen let out an exaggerated cry. Baby, are you trying to kill your husband? I am in my own office, my own ce and standing right beside my own wife. But I cant kiss her and only stare at her longingly, every day. My life is too painful!
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. She said in mild surprise, Since when did you learn to act like a spoiled child?
Well, I didnt have this function before. But it came to me after I met you!
Chapter 179 - You Meant Everything!
Chapter 179: You Meant Everything!
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning certainly understood what he meant by that function, because Jing Yichen once mentioned that he had thought that he liked men and had no interest in women.
Her red face that had just returned to normalcy, flushed again. She snapped, Cant you just talk properly? Why are you always so... shameless?
Jing Yichen couldnt help but bury his face into her neck. Seeing her blush, he chuckled in a low voice. Ning, we have been married for so long, and I have seen and touched every part of you. Why do you still get shy so easily?
Shangguan Ning was defeated as she said furiously, Shut up. Stop talking now. I came to the meeting room to ask you something important, not to be taken advantage by you!
She paused for a moment and finally rxed when she saw Jing Yichen paying attention to her words finally.
What is it going on with Jing Yiran? Why was he here, at work today? Also, why does he have ess to all the floors of this building and can go anywhere? Today, he broke into your office and the meeting room.
Having said the words, Shangguan Ning found Jing Yichenpletely quiet. She looked at his face which seemed to have tightened in anger.
She thought that Jing Yichen had be unhappy with her questions. So she asked in concern, Anything serious? What is it going on? Tell me, now!
Jing Yichen couldnt resist any more. A smile hovered on his handsome face as he said, Didnt you just ask me to shut up? Now you are asking me to talk again. So fickle!
Shangguan Ning almost burst intoughter seeing his childish behaviour. She stretched her hand and patted his chest. I am being serious, cant you just answer me properly, please?
Jing Yichen gently helped her button up her blouse as he said smilingly. Oh, baby, are you worried about me? Half of my properties have been taken away and I am feeling sad. Can you console me? A part of me hurts a lot because of you. Are you so cruel as to let it hurt all the time?
Shangguan Ning felt that if it continued like this, she would go crazy. She held one of his ears between her fingers. She softly pulled it and said, Tell me now! Or I will make your ear be as long as those of rabbits!
His ear didnt even hurt because she was reluctant to pull it with force. Instead, her touch on it made his desire re up even more.
He lowered his head and kissed her smooth forehead. Instead of joking with her, he said seriously, Silly girl, dont worry! How would I be able to handle thisplex business empire if I cant even deal with him!
He purposefully avoided mentioning the reason why Jing Yiran had got half of the inheritance. Instead, he just told her that he will be able to handle the situation.
But Shangguan Ning wasnt a dumb woman. The harder he tried to hide, the more suspicious it sounded.
Then why was he able to get half of the inheritance? It used to be yours only, wasnt it? She hated Jing Yiran and as per her, the properties should belong to Jing Yichen, only. He had once said that he was the only heir of Family Jing. Then how did Jing Yiran suddenly be an heir as well?
Seeing his wife efforts at prying, Jing Yichen found it difficult to lie to her. So he patted her smooth hair and said softly, Father once made few family rules and I broke a couple of them. I not only followed him but also tapped his phone. He found out about it and that was why father forced me to release half of the properties to him.
Shangguan Ning stayed silent for a moment and asked softly, You had tapped his phone because of me, right?
After she had been taken away by Jing Yiran from the hospitalst time, Jing Yichen installed GPS system in her phone and ne so that he could trace her at all times.
Shangguan Ning didnt want to taste the feeling of being at the brink of death again. So she had agreed to have herself trailed.
But now it seemed that he had tailed Jing Yiran as well.
He had been aware of the family rules but he still breached them. He had never tapped Jing Yiran before no matter how much they fought with each other. But he did it now.
Thinking about what happened during the past few days, Shangguan Ning understood that Jing Yichen did it because he wanted to make sure that she was safe at all times.
He had thrown away half of the properties for her sake.
That was more than hundreds of billions of yuan!
Shangguan Ning never knew that she was worth so much money, at least in his eyes!
Jing Yichen took her into his arms and said softly, Silly girl, leave yourself out of it. I am the one to be med. If you hadnt married me, you wouldnt have been the target of that maniac and you wouldnt be in dangerous situations all the time. Being my woman can be difficult, and it is my duty to protect you.
But those properties are yours, he mustnt have it... Shangguan Ning had never regarded money as something important. But these assets belonged to Jing Yichen after his mothers death. How could he let go of them so easily?
Baby, dont worry about those properties. For me, just one hair of yours is more important than all of those things put together. As long as you are safe, it doesnt matter what I lose. What you need to do is to keep yourself safe and leave the rest to me.
Also, do you think that getting half of the properties would be so easy? Do you think that anyone can be as capable and controlling as your husband? Jing Yiran doesnt have the ability and he knows it. Thats why he left the office, depressed today.
Shangguan Ning leaned her head against his chest and listened to his strong heartbeat. Hearing him speak so confidently, she felt assured and happy.
This man had done so much for her sake in silence. He would rather give up the things which he had guarded for his entire life just to make sure that she was safe.
All the suffering she went through in the past was worth it as long as she had him for her life!
But will hee tomorrow again?
He will. He will not give up this opportunity to cause disruption. He will do anything that annoys me. He has been doing this since he was young. He will destroy everything that he cant get for himself.
That was why he was so worried about Shangguan Ning.
He knew Jing Yiran too well!
If Shangguan Ning didnt fall for him, Jing Yiran would hurt Shangguan Ning so that she couldnt be with Yichen!

Seeing his wifes loving face, Jing Yichen said to her in concern, Thats why you need to be careful. Ignore him if he is here, just leave him to Lu Qing. Lu Qing is my fathers man and Jing Yiran would not dare to do anything to him. I have thought about getting him under my nose, so that you will be safe enough, although he might ruin some daily affairs of thepany. It is less troublesome for him to make trouble here inpany than outside thepany. It would be great if he can stay longer in thepany, so that I have got enough time to remove all of his power outside.
Shangguan Nings eyes widened in surprise. She stared at this handsome and deep man in front of her. You brought him to thepany for my sake?
That is the best method at this stage. He has had his eyes on Jingsheng Enterprise for a long time. I will just let him touch it once. It will keep him distracted and we will be in an advantageous status!
The man in front of her was thoughtful and cautious. He didnt care about the losses at the moment, but thought about the long-term. He was charismatic and powerful. He was able to turn the table around at any time!
He was strong and full of confidence that a man ought to have!
The longer she spent time with him, the more deeply she was falling for him.
Shangguan Ning looped her arms around his waist happily and smiled brightly. I think I fell for you once again. What am I supposed to do?
Hearing her words, Jing Yichen became really happy. The smile visible both on his face and his words as he said joyfully. It is okay, my wife. We can fall in love with each other again and again! As long as you like it, I can fall in love with you for the entire life!
He was gentle and spoiled Shangguan Ning, making her feel protected, happy and satisfied.
She never knew that if you loved someone, you were really able to enjoy the happiness of a longsting rtionship. Being loved brought her endless power, making her fearless.
Previously, Shangguan Ning had always been the one who made the effort. She had naively thought that as long as she worked hard, her love would be returned. But if that man didnt love her, she would gain nothing however much effort she put in. But the man who loved her truly would not need any efforts made by her before giving her, his most sincere love!
She and Jing Yichen were like the lonely and isted stars in the sky. They didnt start to shine or ze until they travelled close to each other. They kept warming themselves up and absorbing power from each other..
Time always passes quickly when we are with the people we love. It was time to get off work.
In spite of Shangguan Nings struggling, Jing Yichen held her hands tightly and pulled her into the special elevator earmarked for the President. Arriving downstairs, he stuffed her into the car and drove her home.
Seeing his wife staring at him with pursed lips, he chuckled. Ning, you cant keep hiding! They will know about us sooner orter. I also want everyone to know that you are my wife!
His vulnerable sentence touched the softest part inside Shangguan Ning.
She couldnt get angry facing Jing Yichen in this state.
She leaned against his broad shoulders and smiled. I feel that we are currently in a good ce. You will lose a lot of fans if they know that we are married. Not a good deal!
Jing Yichen sounded helpless. What do I need so many fans for? What if someone follows me around all the time, you will make me sleep on the street again. That wouldnt be a good deal at all!
The couple talked andughed all the way home. Jing Yichen washed hands for Shangguan Ning as usual and then they ate in the dining room.
After dinner, they got changed into the sportswear and went for a stroll alongside the seashore.
The afterglow of the sunset shone upon the sea, making it look like a beautiful goldenyer above the blue sea. It also dyed the entire sky, and the clouds looked like girls who blushed easily.
Hands held, Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen took a slow stroll on the endless boardwalk alongside the sea.
After they had gotten married, their life became gradually stable and regr. As long as Jing Yichen wasnt out on business trips, he would have dinner with Shangguan Ning every night, take a stroll with her, watch her favorite TV programs and go to sleep with her in his arms.
Everyone who worked with Jing Yichen would discover in surprise that this workaholic no longer did overtime. He didnt allow anyone to interrupt his nighttime. If the negotiation didnt end at 6 in the evening, he would cut off the meeting and postpone it to the following day.
His colleagues who knew him well couldnt understand the reason. Jing Yichen used to be a workaholic. If someone starved and wanted to eat something before continuing the negotiation, Jing Yichen would ignore them by saying that anyone who wanted to eat could get out of the meeting at that moment.
Therefore, many people would finish the work ahead of time by working extra on a hungry stomach.
Someone bold enough once had recently asked him cautiously as to why he was working this fast and why was he going home ahead of time?
Jing Yichen had answered calmly, Because I want to have dinner with my wife at home.
His answer had surprised all!
No one had expected that it would be this reason!
Because no one knew that Jing Yichen was already married!
Didnt the rumor say that he was physically ill so that he couldnt touch women? No, not only women, even men! He always hated it when someone touched him.
But he turned out to be so devoted to his wife. He would put down work for her sake. His focus had movedpletely towards his family! Now his ears pricked everytime he heard someone chit chat about his wife and children, behaving totally different from the past when he used to be cold and distant.
People were surprised by this change in him but they liked it because it had made him more easygoing andmunicative.
Jing Yichen was pretty aware of the changes himself and he liked it too.
When he disyed an arrogant face and stayed away from everyone was not because he pretended to be so. Instead, it was because that was his nature to be aloof.
But when he held his wifes hands and felt her warmth and softness, his heart softened too, and the coldness disappeared.
Lets y tennis tomorrow. We havent been there in two weeks. At this rate, we will lose our proficiency without practice! Shangguan Ning proposed happily as she leaned her head against Jing Yichens shoulders and walked ahead with him.
Okay, lets go and y tennis. Jing Yichen took hold his wifes slender waist and sounded indulgent enough to go and pick the stars from the sky if she really asked for them.
But Shangguan Ning didnt want the star from the sky. She got jealous again at the mention of the tennis. Oh yes, Mr. President. I just remembered that your fiance said that you stopped ying tennis because of her?
Chapter 181 - We Need a Son First!
Chapter 181: We Need a Son First!
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yichen smiled helplessly. He extended his hands to pat Shangguan Nings smooth hair and answered her positively, Yes, but she was never my fiance, so please dont call her that.
Shangguan Ning thought that he would deny the statement, but he admitted it!
She instantly red at Jing Yichen, and her eyes burned with fire. It looked as if she would roast him to death with her look if Jing Yichen didnt give her a satisfying answer.
Fearing that they were headed towards a misunderstanding, Jing Yichen exined quickly, I got to know her when I was participating in a tennis contest. She was watching me y the game at the court and got hit by my ball. She was seriously injured and I couldnt have left her alone. Thats how we got to know each other. Later, she woulde to watch me y tennis whenever there was a chance and she tagged along with me all the time, even when I went to the gym or to the school. She would take away my pictures and would even follow me home! So everyone in the family knew about her.
Finally, at this moment did Shangguan Ning understand that Tang Yun had stolen all of the pictures which Jing Yichen painted and that he had never given her a picture himself. How could she have acted so proudly and happily as if she were speaking the truth.
I barely talked with her. Actually, I refused to talk with her or anybody else. So she was no one special. But when I was practicing tennis back then, she stayed by my side every single day. I tried to drive her off many times, but it didnt work. So I just did my own thing, pretending that she didnt exist. There was one time when she was teased by some gangsters when she was watching me y. So I punched those gangsters when I realized that I should not just have left her at their mercy.
Jing Yichen sounded calm, not at all emotional as if he were talking about something unrted to him at all.
But after being with him for so long, Shangguan Ning understood him well. She knew that he must be mentioning the memory that he didnt want to look back upon and was trying to numb himself.
She suddenly med herself. What was the point of making him suffer by reminding him of these things when all was in the past?
Alright, Yichen, you dont need to say anything more. Actually, I know pretty well that nothing has been going on between you and Tang Yun. I know that she was just trying to piss me off and separate us by telling me those stories. I wont be cheated again. I trust you!
Holding her soft hands tightly, Jing Yichen nted a kiss on her forehead and said calmly, It is alright. I have never talked about these matters with anyone, and no one knows about it except for Tiger who has been by my side for so long. I feel much relieved to have told you about them today.
Shangguan Ning nodded and said softly, Okay, if you can feel better, you can tell me. If you dont feelfortable about it, then we will never mention it again.
Jing Yichen answered with a short hmm and then said calmly, Tang Yun almost died for me because of these men. So after she went missing, I stopped ying tennis, because whenever I held the racket, I would be reminded of Tang Yun who used to stand by my side and the day when she and I experienced the dreadful event.
He paused at this moment and then said again, After so many years I became less influenced by this matter. But I had already given up ying and didnt pick it up... until I met you and saw you y. I decided to take it up again because I felt like approaching you subconsciously but I didnt have any suitable excuse. So I decided to get to know you better by ying tennis with you.
Oh? So you had thought about chasing me at that time already? I thought you were just trying to take revenge for your cousin! Shangguan Ning looked at Jing Yichen with her head tilted. She wanted to make sure that he was telling the truth.
A tiny smile finally hovered over Jing Yichens lips. He said, Anan was just a connecting point. I wouldnt have known how to approach you without her. I am not sure if I wanted to chase you back then, but it was the first time in my life when I wanted to approach someone. Even a rough man like Tiger could sense my unusualness, so... may that was it.
Shangguan Nings eyes lit up when she heard the answer that pleased her.
Ning, did you just say that Tang Yun know about me giving up the tennis ten years ago. But does she know the reason for my picking it up again?
Jing Yichen was much sharper than Shangguan Ning. A question had instantly arisen in his brain when he heard her question. But he still exined to Shangguan Ning the entire matter first and asked about it after she understood the entire sequence of events.
Shangguan Ning nodded and asked in confusion, Umm, she knew that you gave up tennis, but she doesnt seem to know that you have started ying again. Why? What is wrong?
Jing Yichen frowned slightly as he said, Only a few people knew about me giving up tennis. Most people thought that I gave it up because I had no time. Tang Yun said that she was oblivious during the past decade and didnt get back the memory until recently. Then how did she know that I gave up tennis? If she researched, she would have known that I had picked up ying again.
Shangguan Ning also felt something weird after hearing his words.
Unless Tang Yun didnt lose her memory and had kept an eye out for Jing Yichen on the sly. Otherwise she would not have known about what happened to him during the past decade!
But if she didnt lose the memory and she loved Jing Yichen so much, why didnt shee to find him of her own ord? She was his savoir and as long as she appeared in front of Jing Yichen, she would have definitely been taken great care of, as a princess!
Or even... she might really have be Jing Yichens fiance!
But she didnt. Instead, she kept herself hidden and refused to be found by Jing Yichen!
Both of them shivered as the cool breeze blew.
Jing Yichen took off his overcoat and draped it over Shangguan Ning. Then he draped his arm around her shoulders and walked towards home.
Dont overthink. I will look into the matter. What you need to do is to eat, sleep and take good care of yourself. Dont get sick and be happy. That is the most important of all.
I have gained several kilos! I have almost be a pig!
Oh, really? Then Mrs. Pig, when will you give birth to a little piggy for me?
Shangguan Ning chuckled hearing how he addressed her. Sheughed as she said, My baby will definitely be smart and lovely. He wont be a piggy so you mustnt say anything bad about him!
Alright, alright, my son wont be a piggy. He will be the smartest and the loveliest. You can teach him to read and to write whilst I will spank him if he doesnt keep in line.
No, no, no, I will be the spanker, and you will be the teacher. You are an excellent student. I better not teach him, or I will not have a chance to fight back if the son bes as smart as you.
Jing Yichen couldnt help butugh. Its your call, baby. But before everything happens, we probably need to have a son first!
Chapter 182 - Jing Yiran Broke His head
Chapter 182: Jing Yiran Broke His head
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were so involved with each other that their love rtionship became more and more sincere, totally unaffected by the maniac man, Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran came to Jingsheng to work for days in a row, just as Jing Yichen had said. He roamed in the entire Jingsheng Enterprise. Due to his special identity and the charmingly handsome face, he made himself known in the entire Enterprise within two days time.
He did anything that disgusted Jing Yichen, no matter how difficult the thing was or whether it was a good thing for him. He spared no efforts toplete it.
Apart from messing around in Jingsheng every day, he was also busy helping Family Shangguan to reach the top!
The current Mayor of A City was actually Jing Yichens man, which Jing Yiran had found out already. If he reced Jing Yichens man with Shangguan Zheng, Jing Yichen would truly get very pissed.
That Shangguan Rouxue couldnt work as the hostess any more was superficially Shangguan Nings work, but as a matter of fact, it had been Jing Yichens work behind the scenes. He also intended to restore her identity as the hostess to upset Jing Yichen.
Because of his years long fight against Jing Yichen who was effective and fast, Jing Yiran had also be an effective fighter.
Within three days time, Shangguan Rouxue went back to the TV station as the hostess whilst Yang Wenshu started to receive the treatment under a highly-paid stic surgeon hired from South Korean by Jing Yiran for her scars
As for Shangguan Zheng, he became the new Mayor of A City at a rocket speed by squeezing away the newly-appointed Mayor.
Early in the morning, Jing Yiran came back to where Shangguan Ning sat. There was arge bunch of blue roses on the table from him, again.
Shangguan Ning was now used to seeing this hateful man these days, so she proficiently hung up her overcoat and was about to turn around to ask Lu Qing for help.
Jing Yiran was a shameless and crazy man and she didnt want to spend any more second with this horrid person. There was no point in trying to beat him and lose her own life in the process. So Shangguan Ning went to find the person who could rescue her.
But before she could go out, Jing Yirans proud voice spoke up, Beauty, I have spent so much money for your sake! I am not so used to being a good man after being bad for so long. I have dealt with some trivial matters for your family members so that the broken family has healed. Now they are all living a happy life. Tell me, how will you thank me?
Shangguan Ning paused.
What did he mean?
Jing Yiran had visited her fathers home?
What did he do there?
Shangguan Ning never watched Shangguan Rouxues program, so she naturally didnt know that she was already back to the Station as the hostess. As for Shangguan Zheng, he had gotten the position with underhand tricks, so there was norge promotional report about it, because the newspapers were all too astonished to report it.
So Shangguan Ning had no idea of what Jing Yiran had done.
But she knew that it couldnt have been anything good. He would do anything just to make her miserable.
When Shangguan Rouxue had the engagement party, Jing Yiran had cooperated with Shangguan Zheng and Shangguan Rouxue to set her up. What was he trying to do now?
Shangguan Ning turned her head and stared at Jing Yiran with a sarcastic look. They better live unhappily. Happiness is not what they deserve! If you are expecting gratitude from me, you wont get it. Do you know that you are a pathetic man? You are so pathetic because you live for others. If Jing Yichen is gone, your life goal will be gone too! You are just a pathetic worm living under his shadow!
Shangguan Nings words poked straight at the biggest weakness inside Jing Yirans heart. Pain gushed out of that hole.
His voice trembled as he bellowed. Shut up! I live for myself, not for him. I have a goal but he doesnt. Get out of here, you know nothing. You are just bullshitting.
Shangguan Ning had not intended to irritate Jing Yiran. But he had interfered with her life and brought her trouble. He even got her family involved.
What on earth did he do with those people who were so self-centred and evil?
Why must she be the bargaining chip when they had to make a deal and gain benefits!
If she wasnt living a good life, she wouldnt allow him to live a good life either.
You think that you can change something when you get half of the inheritance? You are not going to be able to change anything!
Howsoever many properties you get, you are nothingpared to him. Nothing! The best thing you can do is to threaten him with me and to bully the weak. When has he ever threatened you with anyone who is important to you? Your mother is still living as Mrs. Jing in the family. If he was as crooked as you, then you would not be able to stand here in the Jingsheng office building and talk like this.
Jing Yiran kicked off the chair and walked up to Shangguan Ning. He grabbed her by the cor and pressed her to the wall.
His handsome face looked twisted and veins popped out of his forehead. He said in a sinister voice, What I hate most in my life is when someone thinks that I am less than him! If you dont want to die now, you better shut up!
Pressed against the wall, Shangguan Ning was almost strangled to death by his tight grip around the neck.
Shangguan Ning started to feel suffocation and dizzy. Without caring about anything more, she snatched a vase within her hands distance and smashed it upon his head.
With a loud sound of ttering, the vase banged against Jing Yirans head. He released his hands and Shangguan Ning was able to breathe again.
Both of them fell on the ground at the same time. Jing Yiran screamed in pain with hands over his head whilst Shangguan Ning struggled to breath with her hands on her chest, coughing at the same time.
Lu Qing had juste up to the 76th floor with a deck of material when he heard a loud noise. He followed the voices and entered Shangguan Nings office. Jing Yichen had warned him that Jing Yiran might try to hurt Shangguan Ning and that he should keep an eye on him.
If Shangguan Ning was hurt, not only Jing Yichen would get furious, even Jing Zhongxiu, the old President would get angry too.
The moment he entered the office, he saw those two lying on the floor. Jing Yirans head was bleeding. Shangguan Ning wasnt hurt, but her face looked pale.
Lu Qing let out a sigh of relief. Then he picked up the phone and called the medical team of Jingsheng Enterprise.
Chapter 183 - The Big Present
Chapter 183: The Big Present
Jing Yichen got to know about Jing Yiran helping Shangguan Zheng when he was on a business trip abroad.
He wasnt surprised. Instead, he instructed Tiger calmly, Dont worry about our losses here. Just keep an eye on him. He wille up with more tricks when hebines forces with Shangguan Zheng. Focus upon collecting Shangguan Zhengs scandals and hold onto Shangguan Rouxues things. Dont leak them unless I order you to.
Tiger replied in affirmation. Then he told Jing Yichen about Jing Yiran and Shangguan Nings conflict, with a bit of hesitation.
Upon hearing the words, Jing Yichen said coldly, Is the Lady hurt?
Tiger answered instantly, No. The Lady ispletely fine, but Second Masters head has been hurt badly by the Ladys action. He seems to be seriously injured and is now recovering at home. I heard from the Butler that the Lord is very angry, and he scolded the Second Master fiercely, and even Ms. Zhang. The two of them have been grounded by the Lord for one month and he even sent apensating gift to the Lady.
Tiger and his team who were loyal to Jing Yichen, addressed Jing Yichens dead mother Zhao Qing as the Lady and Zhang Rong as Ms. Zhang.
In their eyes, only Jing Yichen was the real heir of Family Jing whilst Zhang Rong and Jing Yiran had no position in their hearts at all.
Hearing that Shangguan Ning was fine, Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief.
But he hadnt expected that Jing Yiran and Zhang Rong would be grounded.
When he had fought with Jing Yiran earlier, Jing Zhongxiu had never favored him. Instead, he would think that Jing Yiran was badly injured and he would always be the one grounded after the fight whilst Jing Yiran would always receive everyones concern!
Now Jing Yiran was the one who got punished despite it being Shangguan Ning who had hit his head. This was something that had never happened in the family before!
His lovely wife had broken another record of Family Jing.
Seemed that Jing Yiran and Zhang Rong must be very annoyed! They were not only injured and punished but had also annoyed Jing Zhongxiu, so much that he had sent Shangguan Ning apensating gift! Jing Zhongxius presents had never been cheap, and Zhang Rong must be heartbroken because she was obsessed with money.
After he wrapped up his work, Jing Yichen called his wife immediately. He was still not assured, and he needed to ask her in person if she was okay and whether she had been frightened by Jing Yiran.
Shangguan Ning waspletely dumbfounded by thepensating gift delivered to her by Jing Zhongxiu, when her husband called her from Russia.
Ning, did Jing Yiran mess around again at thepany today? Are you alright? Are you injured? If you are frightened, just go home and rest for two days. I aming home tomorrow. You wait for me at home, I will take revenge for you. Jing Yichens concern reached her through the phone clearly, making Shangguan Ning feel really warm in her anxious heart.
But what was the point of taking revenge? Jing Yiran had almost died because of the incident. Doctor said that he had received a serious head injury and needed at least half a years rest!
If Jing Yichen still took revenge for her, Zhang Rong might get very upset C her sons head almost shattered and she was crazily heart-broken already.
I am fine. It is Jing Yiran who is not. I didnt spare any effort in smashing his head with the vase. Better buy more vases and ce them everywhere at thepany, so that I can use them as a weapon in crucial moments! Shangguan Ning didnt sound frightened at all. Instead, she sounded fascinated by the turn of events.
She might not have used so much force if Jing Yiran had not tried to suffocate her. She hadnt got any time to think about her use of force when she herself was at the brink of death!
Hearing that Shangguan Ning sounded rxed rather than frightened, Jing Yichen finally felt assured. He said calmly, Yes, we better buy more vases, which should be of great quality, so that they can kill the man next time, sparing us any extra effort.
Shangguan Ning didnt think much about Jing Yiran. He was hurt only because he had asked for it. What concerned her was thepensating gift which Jing Zhongxiu gave her.
She fiddled with the two pieces of paper that represented those properties. She spoke to him in a low voice, Yichen, father gave me apensating gift after he got to know that Jing Yiran bullied me at thepany. But I feel that the gift... might be a bit too much.
Jing Yichen smiled and asked, What did he give to you?
Jing Zhongxiu was a generous man, and he liked Shangguan Ning so much that he regarded her as his own daughter. So the present he gave to her couldnt have been too small.
Father gave me the two mines in S City. Am I going to be a Mine Boss?
Shangguan Ning sounded anxious yet excited. She felt that if she became a Mine Boss, it would be very interesting.
Jing Yichens heart shook when he heard about the present.
The two mines in S City didnt belong to Jingsheng Enterprise, but were personal properties of Jing Zhongxiu. He had bought them at a low price from someone when he was young. When he had purchased them, everyone thought that the small mines were empty after five to six years of extraction. But after another year of extraction, it was discovered that there was much better quality coal hidden in the deepyers of the mines.
Jing Zhongxiu had kept the two mines for more than twenty years without any further extraction.
During the past few years, many mines were running out of resources, so the value of these two mines was getting higher and higher. They might be worth at least 700 C 800 million yuan in the present day. Zhang Rong had tried to make Jing Zhongxiu give the mines to Jing Yiran many times but Jing Zhongxiu never agreed.
Jing Yichen had also thought about the two mines, but Jing Zhongxiu had no intention of giving them to him, either.
Unexpectedly, however, he gave them away to Shangguan Ning so easily!
Jing Yichen sighed once again seeing Shangguan Ning receive special treatment.
Why would he get punishment when he punched Jing Yiran whilst Shangguan Ning was given such a valuable present when she did the same?
He smiled and consoled his wife. Dont worry, you deserve them if Father gave them to you. Just ept them, graciously. Remember to be my sugar mom when you suddenly get rich overnight because of the coal mines.
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. He was getting funnier by the day. How could he be so funny when he looked so cold and distant.
Alright then, I will be your sugar mom and we wont need to do anything more, because mining coal can make sure that we have enough food and clothes for many generations toe!
Shangguan Ning teased and then sighed again. Father is just too generous. He really frightens me with such a huge present. Is he encouraging me to smash Jing Yiran to death next time? Also, do you think that I should get someone to guard my mines, in case someone steals my coal!
Chapter 184 - Don’t Worry about Me, Do as You Wish
Chapter 184: Dont Worry about Me, Do as You Wish
Jing Yichen couldnt help butugh after hearing Shangguan Nings words.
He didnt stopughing until Shangguan Ning furiously ordered him to. My darling wife, cant you just be a bit high-headed? You are the Lady of the powerful Family Jing, thedy of Jingsheng Enterprise who is worth hundreds of billions of yuan. Also, apensation worth tens of billions from Family Ji was given to you recently, and your Liyu Science & Technology makes a revenue of tens of millions a year. Why do you still care about these coal mines? Just pretend that you are being kind if someone steals your coal, and let the thief live off well! The coal mines are extremely huge and will take at least ten years to finish the extraction even if tremendous amount ofbor and money is used for extraction, day and night.
After hearing his words, Shangguan Ning chuckled on the other side of the phone. Apparently, she also found it funny that she was being overly careful.
The couple talked andughed over the phone. They sounded very happy but hated it that they were not by each others side. It was a different feeling to have conversation face-to-face.
Jing Yichen used to like being on business trips earlier, because it meant that he could get away from his family and the people he detested so much. But now, he disliked it when he had to go for these trips, because it meant that he wasnt able to see his wife for a while. But he didnt like taking Shangguan Ning with him on the trip because he travelled extensively and it would be too tiring for her. He barely had time to sleep. Instead, he wanted to finish the work as soon as possible so that he could return to China and to the woman he longed for.
...
Two dayster, the news channels and newspapers of A City were thronged with the news that Shangguan Zheng had be the Mayor. The public found it weird that the Mayor of A City kept changing so frequently.
On the other hand, Shangguan Rouxues return to the TV Station was not as big a news but she still received a lot of attention from many people.
This was because the first thing Shangguan Zheng did when he became the Mayor was to rify things on behalf of Shangguan Rouxue. He said that the pictures at her wedding were all photoshopped and it had been an evil trick employed by the former Mayor to prevent him from taking up the Mayors position and Shangguan Rouxue had been an innocent victim in the political fight.
The moment Shangguan Zheng became the Mayor, Xie Zhuojun came to Family Shangguan, tore the divorce paper into pieces and apologized to her. Xue, I was just too angry looking at those pictures, please dont take it to heart. Come back home with me!
Shangguan Rouxue had dreamt about Xie Zhuojuning to apologize to her and to take her home.
And the wish was realized today, exactly how she had imagined it!
She happily went back to the vi that had been newly bought for their marriage.
The house was newly decorated, and the red happiness character was pasted on the windows and the wall. Even the nkets were of shining red color for the newly-wedded couple.
Shangguan Rouxue started to unpack her clothes and ce the garments into Xie Zhuojuns wardrobe, one piece after another. But when she turned around, she found that Xie Zhuojun was missing.
She sought him through the entire vi but failed to see him anywhere.
Anxious, she called him.
Xie Zhuojun picked up the phone quickly and said in his gentle voice. I have got affairs to deal with at thepany. Sleep now, I will bete in returning home.
He consoled Shangguan Rouxue patiently. But the moment he hung up the phone, Xie Zhuojuns smile disappeared. Instead, he looked disgusted and distant.
He was not going home. He got so disgusted at the sight of this woman who had been with so many men!
Xie Zhuojun never wanted to see Shangguan Rouxue again. But Shangguan Zheng suddenly became the mayor for some reason and his parents forced him to get Shangguan Rouxue back home!
How many men had she cheated him with? Many friends and rtives kept whispering about him being impotent, although they remained polite to him on the surface.
His wonderful life had beenpletely ruined by this woman!
But he had to tolerate her for hispany and for his parents, because when Shangguan Zheng became the Mayor, Family Xie would have to face the consequences if he was offended.
Xie Zhuojun felt dispirited whenever he thought that he had to spend the rest of his days with this kind of woman.
He was extremely regretful right now. He regretted it very much that he had pushed away Shangguan Ning who was a beautiful jade but kept Shangguan Rouxue who was made of sand. This woman had skinned him and made his eyes bleed, yet he had to try his best to tolerate it!
...
Shangguan Ning finally understood what Jing Yiran had done after reading the news reports.
He had imed that he had solved some small matters for her family and it turned out that he had helped Shangguan Zheng to get hold of the Mayor position and Shangguan Rouxue get back her job as the hostess.
Was he crazy?
If Jing Yiran were standing by her side now, she would have smashed a vase on his bizarre head again.
What benefits did he get after he helped these people? Did he think that she would obey Shangguan Zheng and Shangguan Rouxue if he did this?
Seeing his wife getting red in the face, Jing Yichen understood that she was very angry. He consoled her softly, Dont worry. Everything is under my control. I wont let them prevail for too long. But I would like to ask you for a suggestion, because my next move might remove your father from his official position. I will protect his reputation. But he will be amon man. We can take care of him when he gets old. But I cant guarantee that he will be on a high rank any more. If I dont do this, he will put you in danger bybining forces with Jing Yiran.
However terrible Shangguan Zheng was, he was, after all Shangguan Nings father. Jing Yichen had to take his wifes feelings into consideration before making a decision.
Also, if Shangguan Zheng was hated by the public, Shangguan Ning would also be involved as his daughter.
He didnt want his wife to get involved when he extracted revenge. She had nothing to do with any of this.
Shangguan Ning knew that Jing Yichen was concerned about her, and hence had restrained his every move. Shangguan Zheng would have lost the possibility of being a high ranking officer ages ago if Jing Yichen had done things his way.
She sat down next to him, leaned her head against his body and said firmly, Yichen, you dont need to worry about me. Do what you should do. I have wanted him to be away from the political field for a very long time. That is the best way to handle him, or he would keep using tricks for power throughout his life. At this rate, he may end up in prison if his deeds are exposed. Keep his reputation intact and make him quit. This is the best we can do.
Jing Yichen kissed his wifes forehead and said calmly, Okay, I know what to do.
Chapter 185 - Jing Yichen’s Ability
Chapter 185: Jing Yichens Ability
Jing Yichen was now free to carry out his n after hearing what Shangguan Ning said. He had wanted to remove Shangguan Zheng off the Deputy Mayors position for a long time now, because the longer he stayed in a powerful position, the more harm he would bring to Shangguan Ning, mercilessly.
To remove Shangguan Zheng would mean removing a major potential danger.
...
On a dark night, Shangguan Zheng who was in deep sleep, suddenly felt a chill. He opened his eyes and found that the windows of his bedroom were open.
Is it windy tonight? He mumbled in annoyance, and then gave a nudge to his wife who was sleeping soundly beside him. She didnt move so he had to get up to close the window.
Suddenly a sinister voice spoke from behind his back, startling Shangguan Zheng!
Mayor Shangguan is finally awake, else I would have had to use the knife to wake you up.
Shangguan Zheng turned around and found that a man sat on the chair in the bedroom. A tall man next to him was holding a knife. The two of them looked ominous, as if they were the Gods of Killers from Hell. They looked intimidating and scary!
Despite having a blurry sight, Shangguan Zheng was still able to recognize the man at one nce. He spoke into fright. What are you doing here, Jing Yichen? What... do you want?
Dont worry, I wont kill you because of Ning. I am here to tell you that you arent fit for the Mayors chair of A City, just resign! Even Ji Minyun walked away from that position some time ago. Do you think your neck is firmer than hers? Or... you think that your supporter is stronger than me? Jing Yichen sounded cold, just like an icy knife that poked at Shangguan Zhengs weak point.
Shangguan Zheng copsed to the ground upon hearing this.
He knew that Jing Yichen was tough to deal with. He had just be the Mayor and already this man was at his door!
Was the Mayors position which he had been dreaming of, going to be snatched away from him so quickly?
It was no different from killing him. He would rather die than lose his position as the Mayor!
I will not resign. I am the Mayor and you cant threaten me. I will never give up. You are definitely not going to dominate the entire A City, I will call the Police to catch you. How dare you break into the Mayors mansion!
Shangguan Zheng shouted with a fierce face. But cold sweat had broken out in his palm.
He didnt believe that Jing Yichen would leave him alone. Ten years ago when he was not even the Deputy Mayor, he had already heard of Jing Yichen who was famous in A City. He was so brutal that he had converted the entire mafia n into a bloodbath. He was not a man known for mercy!
With his handsome face hidden in the darkness, Jing Yichen sat on the chair like a king. He even sounded like a king, making everyone want to bow in front of him. I am not here to negotiate with you. I am here to inform you. You can try if the Police Station would follow your orders. Dont think that Jing Yiran is your supporter. He will only send you to the grave. I am going to warn you just this once. There will be no next time!
Jing Yichen knew that Shangguan Zheng, who was so fascinated by the power would not give up the official position easily. He addressed Tiger, who till now had been fiddling with the shining de, Show the necessary things to him.
Tiger brought out a small booklet from his pocket and tossed it towards Shangguan Zheng. He spoke with bared teeth. You better obey my Master, or if anything written in the booklet is submitted to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, it will not be my Master whoes here next time, but the people from The Bureau of Corruption Prevention! You are not a young man anymore, and may not be able to tolerate the hardship of prison at your age.
Shangguan Zheng picked up the little booklet with trembling fingers and skimmed through it under the light of his phone.
He got paler as he thumbed through the pages. His face had lost all its colour when he reached thest page.
How did Jing Yichen know about everything that he had done?
How could he get so much information, even the information which he himself had forgotten about?
Jing Yichen was indeed a scarily powerful man. He did dominate the entire A City.
Also, he knew that it was Jing Yiran who had helped him.
In the light of the phone screen, he looked like a ghost.
Jing Yichen showed no trace of sympathy. He said calmly, I will give you three days to resign. If you dont hand in the resignation letter, what you saw just now, will appear on the desk of the Provincial Commissioner for Discipline Inspection. You know pretty well what will happen at that time.
He sounded cold and distant. To Shangguan Zheng, the words sounded like a death sentence!
Oh, yes, dont try to get any doctor to fix your wifes face. It will get ugly again in a couple of days. It is simply a waste of time.
After saying these words, Jing Yichen and Tiger walked out of the bedroom nonchntly and went out of the open gate.
The moment Jing Yichen left, Shangguan Zheng became distressed. But then he thought of Jing Yiran, and became hopeful again. They were brothers, and if Jing Yichen was so powerful, then Jing Yiran couldnt be much worse. He was going to find a way to save himself!
But it was 2 in the morning and Shangguan Zheng didnt dare call Jing Yiran. So he waited impatiently until dawn and called Jing Yiran immediately, ignoring Yang Wenshu who was still fast asleep.
Hello, who is it?
Jing Yiran had apparently just woken up, and his sinister voice soundedzy and hoarse.
But it was music to Shangguan Zhengs ears.
Second Master, please save me! I will lose my official position, and I may be sent into the prison by the Elder Master. I really need your help!
The moment Shangguan Zheng finished speaking, a womans scream pierced Jing Yirans ears.
He immediately put the phone away from his ears and bellowed with narrowed eyebrows. Did you know that your daughter gave me brain concussion? Argh... What is that horrible voice? My illness is worse now!
Shangguan Zheng got furious. Why did Yang Wenshu wake up at this moment and why did she scream the moment she woke up? Even he was frightened by her, let alone Jing Yiran who sounded very annoyed.
He turned around and was about to curse at her when he fell to the floor at the sight of Yang Wenshus horrible look!
Chapter 186 - Tricked!
Chapter 186: Tricked!
Yang Wenshus face, which had be slightly better recently, was badly mutted. The exposed skin on her neck and arms was full of horrible ck lines instead of the blue veins as if she had been terribly poisoned.
While screaming, she started to scratch herself ferociously and soon those ces started to bleed horribly. But she didnt seem to be aware of it. She just kept screaming and scratching like a mad woman.
Shangguan Zheng spoke on the phone in a panic, Second Master, please send a doctor to check up on my wife! She has just been poisoned by Elder Master and her body is now full of ck marks. She has scratched herself and is now wounded.
Jing Yiran said nonchntly, Just let her die then! Getting a stic surgeon for her is already the biggest kindness that I can offer. I am not running a charity where you keep getting help whenever you want it. I have helped you so much, but I have not received anything back. If you dont keep your side of the bargain, I will leave you alone. Dont me me for losing your official position. I am a businessman and I dont enter into deals that make me lose money!
Shangguan Zheng nodded his head and promised. I know what you want. I will ask my daughter toe home and make her marry you. She has always been obedient and will not dare to disobey me this time too. Please be assured!
Oh no, no, no I am not assured at all. Your daughter is fierce like a tigress. She is full of thorns and bites, and she even tried to kill me! I must make her obey mepletely. You just need to trick her toe home and leave the rest to me. I am going to marry her, and I am going to make her my woman!
Lying in the bed, Jing Yiran still had a thickyer of gauze over his head. His face which had been pale had bepletely red. His eyes turned amorous.
As long as it was rted to Shangguan Ning, he always became incredibly excited and hot blood coursed through his body!
He had never been so excited before, even when he had beaten Jing Yichen sometime ago.
Jing Yiran hung up the phone and sat up. He felt his heart and could tell that his heartbeat was speeding up. He was curious.
What was going on?
He had be interested in Shangguan Ning only because of Jing Yichen. He only wanted to see what kind of woman Jing Yichen had fallen for and he simply wanted to ruin the woman Jing Yichen liked!
But now he didnt want to do that. This woman was extraordinary. She behaved and talked differently from the others, and she always managed to keep him interested.
She was so fierce. She had turned him down coldly and proudly and she could even kill him. On the other hand, she was so na?ve and easily irritated, and gullible.
Kind, elegant and fearless, she was like a white rose growing in the stormy rain. She was so pure and clean yet she had surrounded herself with thorns.
He suddenly realized that he thought about her when he walked, when he ate and when he slept!
Had he lost his senses because of the hit from the vase?
Why did he want to keep her to his side more and more desperately?
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. Getting Shangguan Ning to marry him was a wonderful thing because of two reasons.
He would not only able to get the Beauty but also strike Jing Yichen hard.
Jing Yichen loved Shangguan Ning so much, and if he were to discover that his wife had divorced him, he was definitely going to be majorly upset.
Jing Yiran tried to imagine the scene where jing Yichen would be furious. That made him burst into excitedughter.
Ignoring the wound on his head and the pain in his head, he ripped off the gauze, got dressed and sneaked out of the house.
Although Jing Zhongxiu had grounded him, yet as long as he wasnt watching Jing Yiran himself, Jing Yiran had a way to sneak out. He always got out no matter how many times he was grounded.
The moment Shangguan Ning arrived at the office, she received a call from Shangguan Zheng.
Shangguan Ning had no fatherly love towards him any more, because he had never shown any affection towards her and didnt even regard her as his daughter.
She decided not to take his call but the phone kept ringing. It seemed that Shangguan Zheng would keep calling until she answered.
What was happening that Shangguan Zheng had be so persistent?
Shangguan Ning was, after all, not ruthless enough. She picked up the phone, fearing that something had happened to him.
The anxious voice of the servant of Family Shangguan arose from the phone. Please, Elder Lady,e home please. The Lord is sick and the Lady and the Second Lady are not at home. Pleasee and take the Lord to the hospital!
Shangguan Nings heart skipped a bit. Why did he get sick all of a sudden? Hasnt he been keeping well?
I am not sure. It seems that the Lord cant be the Mayor any more, so he fell ill. He has passed out twice since the morning. But the Lord doesnt want us to send him to the hospital, because he doesnt want others to know that he can not be the Mayor anymore. Pleasee and convince him to go to the hospital!
This was Shangguan Zhengs style. He didnt want to visit the doctor everytime he was sick, fearing that he would look weak and it would affect his chances of attaining a higher position.
Also, Jing Yichen had told her that he was going to remove Shangguan Zheng from the Mayor position. Could it have been that Shangguan Zheng had gotten sick because of anxiety?
Whatever the reason was, Shangguan Ning could not leave him alone at this moment.
Shangguan Zheng had not regarded her as his daughter, but she couldnt let her father to die at home.
Okay, just wait. I wille over now! Shangguan Ning hung up the phone, snatched up the handbag and car keys and went downstairs. She started to drive towards her fathers home in a hurry.
But the moment she reached and went inside the door, the gate was locked behind her. The servant who had sounded so anxious, looked guilty standing beside her. She seemed to be concealing something. Shangguan Zheng, who should have been sick, was standing there looking fine, and vicious.
Shangguan Nings heart sank. She realized that she had been tricked!
Werent you sick, father? What is it going on! Did you... lie to me? Where is Jing Yiran?
Chapter 187 - Marry Me and I Will Tell You
Chapter 187: Marry Me and I Will Tell You
p, p!
Shangguan Ning heard the pping sound behind her back, followed by a familiar yet detesting calm voice. Beauty is very smart. You knew it was me! Sigh, I like you more and more each day, so much that I want to marry you!
Without turning around, Shangguan Ning recognised him. Shangguan Ning had never expected that Shangguan Zheng would be so crazy that he will sell her to Jing Yiran in such an open way!
Furious, she felt bitterness and grief invading her entire body, making her wobble.
Tigers dont usually eat their babies, but Shangguan Zheng was worse than a tiger.
Shangguan Ning forced her tears back and said in a hoarse voice. Father, do you have any feelings towards me at all? Even if you never loved me, I am your daughter after all! Did you even stop and think for a second before deciding to hand me over to this monster and to live a suffering life? Dont you feel any guilt? What is your purpose of living? Just to be an officer? What is your purpose of bing an officer? Just to sell your daughter again and again?
Shangguan Zheng was already feeling unsure about what he was doing today. He got embarrassed and furious upon listening to the truth in Shangguan Nings words.
He scolded her. Dont speak nonsense. I am doing this for your sake. You have nothing to worry about after marrying Second Master. You will get anything you want. Just stop talking, I have decided to give you to Second Master, and you belong to him now!
After being used and sold again and again, Shangguan Ning hadpletely lost her trust in Shangguan Zheng. She knew now that she should not havee here toda. She would nevere back to him no matter what happened to Shangguan Zheng in the future!
Did he think that they were living in the ancient society where he could sell his daughter to whomsoever he wanted?
Alright! You have made the decision. After you give me to Jing Yiran, I will no longer be your daughter. But I will exchange my efforts of helping you be the Mayor with one question.
Shangguan Ning calmed down, and looked at him with cold eyes, making Shangguan Zheng feel wary.
Jing Yiran came to her side so as to take a better look at her. She had been cheated and sold by the closest person to her but she regained herposure quickly. She was already trying to get the best for herself in the disadvantaged situation.
She was just like a weed that didnt bend or surrender in the rain, one that didnt give up despite the storm and still stood up to fight.
Jing Yiran was curious. Did she get her personality from birth or did she cultivate it herself after she grew up?
She looked like a spoileddy, slender and weak. But she was indeed stubborn!
This woman was so pitiful that this heartless Second Master seemed to feel something inside his heart.
Shangguan Zheng had no idea what Shangguan Ning wanted to ask. He just wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible so that she could get the marriage certificate with Jing Yiran and he could keep his position as the Mayor. So he said instantly, Go on!
Shangguan Ning stared at Shangguan Zhengs eyes firmly and clearly asked, Did you kill my mother?
Shangguan Zheng lost hisposure upon hearing her question. His face instantly turned white like a piece of paper.
He said in panic, No! That had nothing to do with me. She killed herself. It was a suicide! Didnt you see that yourself?
Shangguan Ning took in his anxious expression and her heart became so cold as if it had been soaked in ice. She said ruthlessly, It better be the truth! Because if you did, I will take revenge for my mother. You will all die!
After she finished her words, she turned to look at Jing Yiran and said calmly, Okay, now it is your turn. What do you want? What can you give me in return?
Jing Yiran was bing increasingly interested in this woman. It felt as if that gentle woman he met every day had not been her.
She could be so cold in her bones, just like a powerful killer who converted herself into a hunter within a second, intimidating and scary!
Her short golden brown hair reflected beautifully against the sunshine. The tip of the hair was slightly curled against her face, creating a perfect arch. Her long eyshes added to her features making them look exquisite.
Her red lips were slightly opened, and her voice was crisp, making her look elegant and morous, so that people couldnt help but be fascinated.
Jing Yiran felt his heart beating fast and loud as if it would pop out of his chest any second.
His words came out in the gentlest possible tone, one which he didnt know that he possessed. Will you give me anything I want?
Shangguan Ning looked proud standing there. In an emotionless voice, she said, It depends on whether or not you can afford the price.
I want you, name your price!
Okay! Shangguan Ning still wore a cold look. I want your mothers life!
Her words made Jing Yirans calmness disappear. Immediately, he sounded dangerous. What has this got to do with her?
So you know that she is not rted to this matter. Then why am I involved when you cut a deal with Shangguan Zheng and Shangguan Rouxue? Shangguan Ning burst into a mirthlessugh.
She was so annoyed with Shangguan Zheng that she even refused to address him as father and called him by his name.
So you cant do it? My life is not worth your mothers life? Then what other valuable things do you have? You have nothing to offer and you still ask me for a price. You are just a paper tiger!
Shangguan Ning mocked him. She was already in a terrible mood to have been tricked intoing here. On top of that, Jing Yiran had caused her trouble repeatedly and he made her extremely disgusted. She did not hold back her words.
Jing Yiran was only furious for a second but soon his standard sinister smile was back on his face. Yes, I do have what you want. But it is not my mothers life. It is your mothers life!
Shangguan Ning froze. She said angrily, What did you say?
I have your mothers legacy, and I have her other things too. Havent you always wanted to know how your mother died? I dont think that anybody in this world would know more about your mother than I do. Marry me, and I will tell you everything!

Both Shangguan Ning and Shangguan Zheng paled upon hearing Jing Yirans words.
Huang Liyus death was a thorn in their hearts, something that shouldnt be touched by anyone, because one touch would rip off the old wound and the blood would gush out instantly.
It took Shangguan Ning a while before she said calmly, Sorry, I am married and I will not remarry. I can look into my mothers affairs myself and even if I cant figure the matter out, I can simply send every suspect to prison so that they suffer and wish that they would rather die. That would be my revenge!
Huang Liyus death was rted to the people in her family. Had it not been for them, her mother would not have died. So it was necessary to punish those responsible.
Jing Yiran had not expected that Shangguan Ning could be so intimidating that she would want to kill everyone even mistakenly rather than drop the matter. This felt familiar to him as if he had seen it somewhere before.
Oh yes, this was what Jing Yichen was like!
Could Shangguan Ning have be bossy and intimidating because she had been with him for so long?
This was not a good sign. Jing Yichen was already very difficult to deal with, and he didnt want to get one more rival like him.
But why did he find this intimidating Shangguan Ning even more attractive than her gentle version?
Jing Yiran didnt want to wait for even one more second and wanted to make her belong to him.
Mu Qing had deprived him of using his manhood, but what he could do was to make sure that their rtionship could be legal by getting Shangguan Ning to divorce Jing Yichen first!
The staff at the Civil Affair Office had been arranged by Shangguan Zheng, as the mayor. As long as he could bring Shangguan Ning there, he would make her go through the divorce procedures with Jing Yichen and then marry her immediately, afterwards.
Shangguan Ning was too na?ve to think that he would exchange what she wanted with what he wanted?
I have never thought about having a deal with you. I always rob rather than trade.
Jing Yiran smiled sinisterly. He stretched out his hands to touch her smooth, oval face, but was pped away by her.
Shangguan Ning swore, You are shameless!
I can be more shameless! You will know soon.
He had just finished speaking when Shangguan Ning felt something weird about her body.
She suddenly felt that she had no energy. She copsed to the ground.
Jing Yiran scooped her up in his arms and grinned. See? Only bad methods work. Why would I have spent so much time talking with you if I had not been waiting for the drug toe into effect? You are so na?ve that you get tricked so easily. My heart really aches for you.
But dont worry. I got the drug from Shangguan Rouxue. Since I pity you, I only used a small dosage of drug to put into you. It wont be a problem at all. ording to her, there are no side effects apart from a strong desire to kiss me. We can do the divorce procedures first before getting registered as a couple. By that time, the drug inside you would work to the maximum extent and then we can go to the wedding bed. How does this sound?
Shangguan Ning wanted to kill Jing Yiran right now.
She had been drugged three times by the same drug. She was familiar with the effect which the drug brought about.
But Jing Yiran might have told the truth about not injecting too much drug into her. That was why she had no other reaction than weakness, unlike the two previous times when she felt so hot that she had wanted to rip off her own clothes.
She threw a dubious look at Jing Yiran C how could he be so kind? Wasnt he the one who should put more quantity of the drug into her so that she could suffer?
But she cared even more about what Jing Yiran said just now.
What do you mean about getting divorced?
She would never divorce Jing Yichen.
What was more, she would not marry Jing Yiran, the maniac!
Jing Yiran put Shangguan Ning in the passenger seat, fastened up the seatbelt for her carefully and patted her hair.
He said. You are going to divorce the man I hate and marry me. Wow, what a lovely day!
The Maserati started and carried them off to the Civil Affairs Office.
When they reached the gate, Jing Yiran carried Shangguan Ning off the car who had no strength, all the way to the Civil Affairs Office.
Due to the preparatory work Jing Yiran had done, there was no one at the Civil Affairs Office. The couples who had intended to get the certificate registration had been driven away.
There were only two employees in the empty lobby as well as a man dressed in ck, with his back facing them.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the man turned around and said in a cold voice. You are a stepte. She married me first. You have been one step behind me in everything, even at birth. So I am destined to be faster than you and you are bound to have nothing in your life!
Hearing the voice, Shangguan Ning turned her head and said joyfully, Yichen!
Jing Yichen strode forward and scooped Shangguan Ning into his arms, anxiously. He surveyed her up to down and let out a sigh of relief seeing that she was totally fine. Then he said to Jing Yiran who was dumbfounded at the moment. Touch her one more time, and I will break your hands so they can never work again!
After Jing Yichen carried Shangguan Ning away, Mu Qing popped up behind Jing Yiran. Tut, tut, Second Master of Family Jing, how can you be so careless? I have been behind you since you got off the car and you have got six needles inside yet you havent noticed a thing? Are you a zombie? Haha, no, actually, now you have be a zombie!
Furious, Jing Yiran was about to smash Mu Qings handsome face when he found that his limbs were out of his control.
He watched as Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning out of his sight.
He had just one step left before he seeded.
He had arranged everything. He had made many efforts upon finding Ji Bo so that he could arrange to have a meeting with Jing Yichen.
He had even made tremendous efforts to get Shangguan Zheng to be the Mayor!
Now all was gone! He suddenly faced immense loss.
Jing Yiran suddenly spat out a mouthful of water, furiously. Then he felt darkness taking over him before copsing on the ground, smashing his face against the floor.

Jing Yichen carried Shangguan Ning to an inconspicuous looking ck Volkswagen. He shut the door and then said to Tiger standing beside, Take Second Master home, and then tell Jing Zhongxiu that if what he said about grounding him is just talk, I am going to break my promise and kick everyone out, who doesnt belong to Family Jing!
Tiger nodded, turned back to the lobby of the Civil Affairs Office and carried Jing Yiran out. His body waspletely stiff by now. Tiger stuffed him into the Maserati and took him away.
Mu Qing followed behind and came out of the Civil Affairs Office proudly. He was about to stretch out his hand to pat Jing Yichens shoulder when he saw the look on his face and withdrew his hand.
He pursed his lips C what a stingy man, not wanting to be touched, like a woman.
Master Jing, I came here to help. Why are you giving me such a ruthless look? It was not me who got Sister here.
The moment he finished his words, he instantly felt that the temperature around them, dropped.
Mu Qing was afraid that he would throw a fit so he changed the topic. Doesnt your father pay any attention to that maniac? Why is he so troublesome and arrogant since childhood? Has he not been punished ever? Do you think the Old Man and the Old Lady are a bit biased?
The moment he finished these words, Mu Qing felt a chill in his bones.
Damn, this was not an appropriate topic either!
Well, you and Sister are so much in each other. Just get married as soon as possible so Jing Yiran can give up on this nonsense. Look at Sister, she loves you so much. Dont disappoint her!
Having said the words, Mu Qing immediately turned to look at Jing Yichen. Seeing that he was not that cold anymore, he let out a sigh of relief. He mumbled after wiping the sweat drops on the forehead CI better be a psychologist!
Jing Yichen took a look at his wife on the back seat through the cars window and said calmly, Ning and I are already married. But we havent hosted the wedding reception yet.
Startled, Mu Qing gasped. When was it? You havent known each other since long, have you?
When I brought her to your hospital for the first time, before the New Year.
Before the New Year? You had not known each other for even a month at that time. What a lightening marriage!!
Astonished, Mu Qing thought highly of this matter C Jing Yichen never followed the standard rules. He could even think about having a lightening marriage!
How is Jing Yirans physical condition? Recovered yet? Jing Yichen had waited until Mu Qing came out of the Office, not because he wanted to gossip with him, but because he wanted to know about this matter.
Of course not! I put the needles and he shouldnt have recovered so fast. But he is quite healthy, so I bet that he will get back to how he was in half a year.
Take an opportunity and put in the needle once again, so that he will not be able to touch women for a year. It would be best if you can make him unable to get out of bed ever in his life. Jing Yichen said coldly.
He couldnt kill Jing Yiran because of Jing Zhongxiu and grandparents. But it would be good if he could suffer.
No, no, please dont, Master Jing! I have already risked my life to disable Second Master for a period. If the Old Lady ever gets to know about the truth, she will definitely demolish our hospital and then extract revenge from my grandpa! At that time, I will be screwed. If I hurt Jing Yiran again, Family Mu would have no ce to live in A City! Then I will be the sinner of Family Mu. Please, Master, spare me!
Jing Yichen was aware that making Jing Yiran lie in bed for his entire life was impossible. Jing Zhongxiu was definitely going to be extremely furious.
He had been fighting with Jing Yiran for more than two decades and he had not yet found a proper solution. It was impossible that a proper solution coulde up now at this very moment.
Everything had to be done step by step.
Then just insert him with the needle and make him a eunuch for a year! Jing Yichen opened the door after he said the words. Then he sat into the drivers seat and drove off.
Seeing the ck car driving away from his sight, Mu Qing stomped angrily. What is going on? Always abandoning me after using me. I am never paid and not given a lift home. Why am I living such a terrible life?
In the ck Volkswagen, Jing Yichen didnt say a thing. He looked serious and drove at very fast speed. Soon, they reached the outskirts of the city.
The ck Volkswagen was a remodelled car with top-notch functions, as good as the best sports cars.
Jing Yichen sped up on the broad roads, leaving the cars behind as if venting his anger.
Shangguan Ning knew him well. She sensed that he was in a bad mood, so she propped herself up with difficulty and asked. Yichen, are you annoyed?
A deafening sound of brakes came, followed by the fast-speeding car pulling over, almost flinging Shangguan Ning out of her seat.
Jing Yichen opened the cars door, went to the backseat and then took Shangguan Ning into his arms. After a moment, he spoke in a hoarse voice, I am not angry with you. I am angry with myself. I almost got tricked by Jing Yiran hence I arrivedte.
He sounded really guilty. For the very first time, he started to hate the career that he had been so proud of!
Ji Bo had called him early in the morning, iming that he wanted a coboration in financial business. That was why he hadnt gone to work with Shangguan Ning but to Family Jis Enterprise straight from home. The financial business of Jingsheng Enterprise was quite ordinary, not as appealing as that of Family Jis Enterprise. That was why the top managers had always wanted to coborate with Family Jis Enterprise so as to absorb their experience and to take Jingsheng Enterprise ahead.
No sooner had he arrived and exchanged a few words with Ji Bo that he received the message from Lee Duo who informed him that they had been cornered by Jing Yirans men and that Shangguan Ning might be in trouble.
Only then did he realize that the reason why Ji Bo, who had always refused to coborate with him, turned in his direction C Jing Yiran was involved in this somehow.
He had turned on the GPS positioning software and found Shangguan Nings location and reached her at the fastest speed possible.
If Jing Yirans n of getting Shangguan Ning to divorce Jing Yichen and get married to him, had worked out, then Jing Yichen would have be majorly annoyed!

Shangguan Ning didnt me him. She thought that he had reached her fast enough!
She already knew that Jing Yichen had gone to Family Jis Enterprise in the morning. Jing Yichen had specifically stressed to her that she should change the morning meeting to the following day because of that.
Also, Family Jis Enterprise was located almost half a city away from Civil Affairs Office. He could arrive at the Civil Affairs Office ahead of time meant that he had driven at a crazy speed to reach there.
It is alright! I am fine, am I not? Dont me yourself. It was I who wasnt careful enough. I didnt expect that father would have pretended to be sick to trick me intoing there. I will never fall for it again. How can you predict anything that is going to happen? You are not God. I am happy that you reached in time for me!
Jing Yichen was holding her so tightly that she almost couldnt breathe.
He cared so much about her. Shangguan Nings heart skipped a beat. She couldnt help but raise her head to kiss his firm lips.
Jing Yichen didnt expect that Shangguan Ning would kiss him. He got startled for a second, and then immediately grabbed her and started to kiss her passionately.
Ning, no matter what happens in the future, you mustnt leave me or divorce me to marry somebody else. You can only be mine, got it? Jing Yichen panted heavily. He was trying to control his emotions as he said this seriously.
Whenever he thought of the scene when Shangguan Ning was carried to the Civil Affairs Office by Jing Yiran in his arms, he felt his heart rip. He couldnt stand it when his wife was held in someone elses arms!
That was like killing him!
Shangguan Ning understood what he was concerned about. She nodded anxiously and assured him. I wont leave you, you mustnt leave me either! Only I can be your wife...
After being drugged, Shangguan Ning was a bit more sensitive than usual and was feeling emotional. But Jing Yichen didnt take any further action because of guilt.
She felt that her body was getting hotter and started to rub herself against his arms. She even stripped off her top.
Next, she stripped off Jing Yichens shirt and mumbled in his ears. Yichen, I want you, now...
Those words in her husky voice ignited Jing Yichens desire!
Even after being married for so long, Shangguan Ning had never been so bold. Nor had she ever said anything so lustful to him!
He loved her deeply and right now, just wanted to knead himself into her body. He was helpless against her flirty words and moves.
He took off his shirt quickly, disying the well muscled chest. Then he lowered half-naked Shangguan Ning onto the cars seat and covered her face, vicle and plump breasts with his kisses, making the woman under him tremble in pleasure.
Soon, soft moans started to arise from the car, making the air hot and full of passion.
...
After a few passionate moments, Shangguan Ningy in Jing Yichens arms arms, too tired to even move a finger.
Jing Yichen pulled out a white handkerchief from his suits pocket and wiped off the sweat from her forehead. Then, he helped her put on her clothes gently.
My wife, I remember someone couldnt wait to strip off my shirt just now, and even managed to rip off two of its buttons. But she seems quite tired at this moment.
Thinking of her behaviour from sometime ago, she flushed, burying her face into his arms.
Shut up, that wasnt me, dont bullshit!
Jing Yichen chuckled, No one dares to rip off my shirt except you! It is okay, my baby, I liked how you behaved just now. I have enough shirts for you to tear, but dont hurt your hands in the process.
Shangguan Ning looked up shyly and then said in a whisper, Take me home to change clothes. We need to go back to workter!
Jing Yichen didnt tease her any more. After helping her put on the clothes, he wore his own and spoke to her in an indulgent tone, We dont need to go back to work today. Let me show you around this beautiful ce!
Shangguan Ning looked out of the car at his words.
They were surrounded by green trees and lush grass. Various flowers were in full bloom. Majestic mountains were located at a distance away, with clouds floating over them, making the entire scene look fantastic.
Shangguan Ning was enthralled by this picturesque ce and sighed in surprise. How beautiful!
See what a nice ce your husband picked. Beautiful and not many people, full of greenery and the air feels nice too. Very suitable for some exercise in the car. We can visit here again soon!
Shangguan Ning stared at him and mumbled. You are getting more and more shameless!
What was going on with this man C so different before and after marriage! He looked distant and cold on the surface yet so shameless in private. He was just an ordinary husband who wasnt somebody to be admired.
Jing Yichen could hear very clearly what Shangguan Ning said. He said proudly, Why am I shameless? You are a shy person and if I am too shy, then we will not never have a son!
He said this while fastening Shangguan Nings seat belt. Then he dropped a kiss on Shangguan Nings slightly swollen lips. He didnt withdraw until he found her lips turning rosy.
Sit tight and I will take you on a roller-coaster ride!
As soon as he finished speaking, he revved the car, making Shangguan Ning scream in surprise.
Jing Yichen was very skillful at driving. With this refitted car, he could drive even on the grasnd. The car flew into the woods like a leopard, then up the steep hill and forged ahead alongside the twisting road.
Shangguan Ning had never been this excited in her entire life!
She had been living a careful life as an obedient girl since she was young. She had to live with Shangguan Rouxue who was always soplying. She had never done anything out of control and she had never experienced a car race before.
Also, because of the car ident which she had experienced with Xie Zhuojun, where he turned into a vegetative man, she had always been careful in driving and never drove over the limit.
That was why she was overwhelmed with excitement today with Jing Yichen!
No wonder car racing had always been so popr. It was such an exciting sport!
Seeing his wifes excited face, Jing Yichen smiled.
He had driven uphill many times before. Therefore, the trip was quite safe, otherwise he would not have made Shangguan Ning experience such a dangerous thing.
Sit still, we are going downhill!
He told her with a smile and then began to go downhill, making Shangguan Ning scream loudly, next to him.

Since Jing Yiran failed to marry Shanggun Ning, he also refused to help Shangguan Zheng.
Shangguan Zheng spent two days in indecisiveness, but finally submitted the letter of resignation, trying to avoid being expelled because of Jing Yichens threat. But he wasnt happy.
He resigned with an excuse that he was very sick, iming that he would return to the position when he became fit again. If Jing Yichen truly exposed his past crimes to the Province, then his life would be totally ruined.
But both the sons of Family Jing liked his daughter.
So even if Shangguan Ning wasnt close to him, she wouldnt just leave him at their disposal.
He knew his daughter well. She looked distant, but her heart melted easily. She believed in loving the family.
Earlier, when he had forced his daughter to get engaged with Xie Zhuojun, she disagreed. But when he had threatened her with Huang Lihans doom, she got engaged with Xie Zhuojun obediently.
Maybe he did have a chance!
Therefore, Shangguan Zheng didnt feel that disappointed about falling from the peak. Instead, he started towork more actively than ever before. He tried to erase what he had done in the past and attempted to establish a good rtionship with his old subordinates. They maye in handy someday.
Shangguan Zheng didnt give up on Xie Dongfeng, as well.
Xie Dongfeng had a strong background in the army. The reason why he had be Deputy Mayor was because of the army that supported Xie Dongfeng. So he kept visiting Family Xie days frequently, iming that he wanted to visit his daughter whilst trying to pry how strong was Xie Dongfeng, still.
Xie Dongfeng had been quite shocked about Shangguan Zheng resigning from the Mayors post which he had wanted desperately for so long. But he still looked quite happy being amoner. As a result, Xie Dongfeng started to get suspicious about the matter.
His connection in the army had cut off ties with him on the day when Xie Zhuojun and Shangguan Rouxue got married. Therefore, he had lost the sources of information in the political field of A City, and had no idea why Shangguan Zheng suddenly became the Mayor and then resigned a few dayster.
He clearly knew about Shangguan Zhengs prying, but never him told the truth.
He also thought that Shangguan Zheng might have a strong backing else he would have died in anger after he resigned and wouldnt have been so active.
Therefore, on the very same night, Xie Dongfeng turned down Xie Zhuojuns proposal of divorcing Shangguan Rouxue.
Father, they are just amon family now. Shangguan Zheng has lost all his power and poses no threat towards our family. Why cant I divorce Shangguan Rouxue? I dont want to spend even one more day with her. She disgusts me!
Xie Zhuojun looked as if he had aged by ten years within a few days time. He had grey hair over his temples, and looked tired with unkempt clothes and a beard.
He was extremely happy to hear that Shangguan Zheng had resigned. He had rushed home from the bar and told his father about wanting to divorce Shangguan Rouxue, finally.
But Xie Dongfeng broke his beautiful dream ruthlessly.
He said coldly, Zhuojun, do you think marriage is a childs game and you can do whatever you want about it? You are a thirty years old man. Why are you still acting like a child? You will be ridiculed by everyone if you divorce her now. You will be thought of as a man who is devoid of gratitude and follower of the rich and the powerful. You will be considered as a man who dumps the daughter as soon as her father falls off the high position. How will our family have a position in A City and who would wish to cooperate with us?
But it is not my fault. Shangguan Rouxue is a two-faced woman who has been lying to me for so many years. How could I have known that she is such a vicious woman who is involved with so many men? I am theughing stock in front of everyone. I will go crazy if this continues.
Xie Zhuojun was feeling terrible. He didnt want to do anything except get drunk and find ways to divorce Shangguan Rouxue. He hadnt dared to divorce her when Shangguan Zheng was in the high position, but now he was not a mayor any more. There was finally some hope!
Xie Dongfeng couldnt tell his son about his conjecture of Shangguan Zhengs new supporter. Instead, he scolded him. It was you who begged us to break off the engagement with Shangguan Ning and promised to marry Shangguan Rouxue instead. Now she is not only married to you, but also pregnant with your child. Isnt that what you always wanted? You have to take responsibility for your own mistake. Besides, those pictures are in the past, and she has been loyal to you after she got married. She loves you deeply. She is also a famous hostess in A City. You cant abandon her just when you wish!
When the only hope he had was extinguished, Xie Zhuojun felt dizzy. He huddled on the sofa with hands over his head, groaning in pain.
His face had turned pale.
Startled, Xie Dongfeng went to help him up. He asked anxiously, What is it, Zhuojun? Are you okay? Let me take you to the hospital!
Xie Dongfeng knew that his son had been suffering from headaches during the past two months. But he didnt expect that it would be this bad.
Xie Zhuojun gulped down a handful of painkillers to try and tolerate the piercing pain. It took him a long time to be normal.
Xie Dongfeng couldnt help but look at him in worry. What is the point of popping in the painkillers all the time? I will take care of thepany affairs tomorrow. You need to go to the hospital!
Xie Zhuojun was the only heir of Family Xie. If anything happened to him, Family Xie would have no lineage. When he had be a vegetative man after the car ident, the couple almost cried themselves to death.
As for the child in Shangguan Rouxues belly, it was not certain if it was a boy or a girl or even Xie Zhuojuns. So Xie Dongfeng ignored her totally.
Seeing his son in much pain, Xie Dongfeng softened his tone and said slowly, I am not objecting to your divorcing her. You can ask our specially-hiredwyer how much we have to pay her if you divorce her now? Are we going to give all the money we have made, to Family Shangguan? Also, thew says that the husband shall not be allowed to divorce the wife when she is pregnant, unless...

Unless what?
Unless the child is not yours. Then you can divorce her withoutpensation.
That child is not mine. I am sure about it. I will go and file for a divorce now. Xie Zhuojun immediately stood up from the sofa upon hearing the words and started to walk out without turning back.
Stop! Xie Dongfeng bellowed furiously.
He was annoyed at his sons weak streak. Why cant you just be patient? I havent finished speaking and you started to rush outside. Where can you file for divorce sote at night?
Xie Zhuojun was scared of his father, Xie Dongfeng. Hearing his words, he came back and sat down obediently.
How can you be so sure that the child is not yours? As far as I know, although Shangguan Rouxue drank with those people, she might not have betrayed you for real.
Seeing his son looking so honest and obedient, Xie Dongfen calmed himself down. He also hated Shangguan Rouxue as well, because he thought her as a troublemaker who had made such a mess in their happy family. His son had not only been looked down on by others but also aged so quickly. He wasnt happy and even got grey hair when he was only 30 years old, looking almost as old as him.
They had initially feared that the child inside Shangguan Rouxue wasnt Xie Zhuojuns, but now they feared that the child was indeed his!
Xie Zhuojun had no definite proof, but it was his instinct telling him that the child wasnt his.
He was hesitant after hearing Xie Dongfengs words. What about doing a DNA test?
Xie Dongfeng shook his head. He said considerately, Not a good idea. No DNA test. What if the child is yours, you will offend Shangguan Zhengpletely. But if the child is not yours, it is better to let Shangguan Rouxue give birth to the baby.
How can that work? I will beughed at. If we discover that the child is not mine after the DNA test, we can get her to abort it, Xie Zhuojun said anxiously.
Not necessarily! When the child is born and if it turns out to be someone elses, then you will have sufficient reasons to divorce Shangguan Rouxue. She will have no way out then. At that time, they willpensate us rather than the other way around. We will be the reasonable side, and Shangguan Rouxue will be theughing stock. Cheating on you when you were so nice to her! You will only be sympathised with.
Xie Zhuojun relished the words after hearing them and gradually thought that his father might be right.
Also, only allowing Shangguan Rouxue to give birth to the baby would bring the case to a conclusion. Otherwise she might remove the child if they discover that it wasnt his and then stick with him forever. That would be worse.
Zhuojun, for the sake of our Family Xies reputation and honor, please tolerate her for some more time. The child will be born in a few months. If you divorce her then, Shangguan Zheng would have no way out. As for the remaining time, dont worry. Your mother will deal with Shangguan Rouxue, and she will visit her tonight. Your health is getting worse and you need to get yourself checked at the hospital first thing tomorrow.
Xie Zhuojun didnt feel that anxious any more after his fathers words. He nodded and agreed.
The following day, Xie Zhuojun visited the hospital.
After aplete examination, the doctor asked him in confusion, Have you been hit on your head before?
He held all the reports in his hands. Xie Zhuojun got a bit startled hearing the words and nodded. Yes, I had a car ident a few years ago and... I was in bed for two years.
He always avoided mentioning phrases like vegetative man and a.
The doctor didnt care about how he phrased it. Instead, he said seriously, the recurring headaches might be rted to a blood clot in your brain. When you had the ident, the clot wasnt dealt with properly and is now pressing down your nerves. It will get worse with time and if not handled properly, you might slip into aa or even risk losing your life.
Xie Zhuojun broke out in a cold sweat when he heard the doctor. He turned pale and his hands started shaking.
How could this be possible?
He had a blood clot inside his brain?
When he woke up from thea, the doctor had sighed that it was a miracle. The doctor said that he had recoveredpletely and he had no problems left!
He took hold of the doctors hands and asked anxiously, Doctor, what should I do? Please save me!
The doctor got startled by his reaction. He didnt expect that the person could be psychologically so weak.
He removed Xie Zhuojuns hands and said seriously, I would rmend a brain surgery. But you can take a second opinion at other hospitals first. I suggest you try visiting Family Mus Hospital, because they have just imported the newest equipment from foreign countries and will be more urate in this kind of examination. Also, I cant do the operation, it is tooplicated. There is only one person in the entire A City who could do it.
Xie Zhuojun asked anxiously as if holding onto thest straw. Who is it?
Mu Qing! The doctor said calmly, his voice full of admiration.
The Head of Family Mus Hospital, Doctor Mu Qing. He is an expert in this aspect. You can seek his appointment. Family Mus Hospital is expensive, yet the risk can bergely reduced.
Xie Zhuojun had never been to Family Mus Hospital, but had heard of Mu Qing.
Mu Wensheng, the founder of Family Mus Hospital, had been a legend in the entire A City. His grandson Mu Qing was even better. He had not only inherited his profession at a young age but was also very skillful. Due to the support of Jingsheng Enterprise, Family Mus Hospital was expanding very fast. It had more or less be the number one hospital in A City.
Okay, I see. I will seek an appointment with him! Xie Zhuojun finally had hope rising inside him. His shirt was soaked with perspiration due to his fear of few moments ago.
Thank you, I will be off now. Xie Zhuojun wanted to change his clothes before going to Family Mus Hospital.
Hang on! The doctor asked him to stay when he saw him leave. Feeling weird anywhere else apart from the brain?

Chapter 193: The Forewarning of Bing a Vegetative Man (Part Three)

Upon hearing the doctors question, Xie Zhuojun sat down. He asked in bewilderment, No, everything is fine apart from the headache.
Are you married? The doctor asked a seemingly unrted question.
Xie Zhuojun answered after a long hesitation. I am.
Do you have a child?
Xie Zhuojun hesitated even longer and answered with a pale face, Yes.
The doctor let out a sigh of relief and said, Actually, I thought that there could be a chance that you are impotent. Since your body temperature may be higher than the normal standard, so you might not have been able to father a child so easily. So I just want to remind you that you should take good care of yourself and dont get overtired. And, dont have too much sex.
Xie Zhuojun would have gotten very angry if in the past, anyone said that he was not functional as a man. He would even have started a fight with whoever said so.
But he was happy to hear what the doctor said this time.
Because that meant that the child in Shangguan Rouxues belly might not be his!
Xie Zhuojun expressed his gratitude to the doctor, went home to take a shower and change before heading towards Family Mus Hospital.
Mu Qing was not the one who received him at Family Mus Hospital. It was the chief physician of neurology.
Xie Zhuojuns examination report was soon ced upon Mu Qings desk. The blood clot inside his brain had already pressed down the nerves and there was no way out other than a brain operation.
But a brain operation was way too risky and a small mistake could paralyze or kill the patient, so no doctors at the hospital were skillful enough to do the operation. Hence they submitted their findings to the Head.
Mu Qing was on the phone as he read the examination report. Master Jing, dont worry! I will put the needle into that perverted person next week, so that he wont be able to get hard for the next one year! But you must promise to protect me if I am exposed, or I will be beaten to death by my grandpa.
Jing Yichen assured him. I will make sure you are okay. As long as you can make him suffer. Also, you must kick out that Yang Wenshu, if she everes to your hospital.
Jing Yichen had told Mu Qing once and he wasnt going to forget about it. He said cheerfully, She has been here and she has been kicked out! Tut, tut, I didnt know that the poison I gave to you was so fierce that I couldnt even recognize her! Too bad!
Mu Qing already knew that Yang Wenshu was Shangguan Nings stepmother who had not only ruined her originally happy family but also made her lose her mother and tormented her many times. So he had not hesitated before throwing her out of the hospital.
What Jing Yichen wanted was to make Yang Wenshu suffer a lot. He wasnt a soft-hearted person like Shangguan Ning. He would never show any mercy to someone like that.
Oh yes, her daughter is called Shangguan Rouxue right? She came to our hospital for an examination a couple of days ago and wanted to remove the baby. The doctor told me that she said that she didnt want the abortion to ruin her chance of bagging a film.
Okay. If shees there ever again, throw her out. No one dare abort her baby! Jing Yichen sounded cruel and distant, making Mu Qing feel a chill in his heart.
How would Xie Zhuojun be able to taste the pain without the baby? He had ensured that no hospital in the entire A City would dare abort her baby or perform the DNA test for her!
Jing Yichen wanted Xie Zhuojun to keep doubting if the child was his until the baby was born.
Dont worry, Shangguan Zheng and his family have been ck listed in our hospital. We will not receive him! Mu Qing said as the corner of his eye caught a few characters on the examination report in hands.
Name of spouse C Shangguan Rouxue.
Mu Qing thought that he was seeing things, so he rubbed his eyes and took another nce at the four characters C Shangguan Rouxue.
Then he looked at the patients name C Xie Zhuojun.
So this man was Shangguan Rouxues husband?
He spoke hurriedly. Master Jing, who is Xie Zhuojun?
Jing Yichen got a bit startled. He had never mentioned this man to Mu Qing but Mu Qing knew his name.
He is Shangguan Rouxues husband. Why?
I just received his medical report, and the name of the spouse is Shangguan Rouxue!
Jing Yichen said calmly after hearing the words, Dont treat him..
Okay. But this Xie Zhuojun seems to have a blood clot in the brain. If no operation is done, he will be a vegetative man because of the pressure within half a year and he will die in one year.
Still the same answer.
Okay, I see! Mu Qing answered without hesitation. Although he didnt know what Xie Zhuojun had done to offend Jing Yichen, he didnt ask him. He would turn down the operation because Jing Yichen said so.
What an unlucky man! It was his fault to have married Shangguan Rouxue anyway.
That Jing Yichen hated this beautiful hostess so much must have something to do with Shangguan Ning. She must find her life too long when she dared to touch Master Jings woman. Even a doctor like him had heard about her scandalous pictures, and Xie Zhuojun still married her.
Xie Zhuojuns problems had nothing to do with Mu Qing. Patients died every day at the hospital due to different reasons. Xie Zhuojun wasnt the only one.
Therefore, when Xie Zhuojun came to Family Mus Hospital the following day, the doctor told him courteously that their medical head had gone abroad.
Gone abroad? Travelling? Xie Zhuojun couldnt believe that a Head of a hospital was busy travelling rather than stay at the hospital to treat patients.
When will the Head return? Xie Zhuojun asked.
His headaches were getting worse. Painkillers didnt help any more. He even lost his vision sometimes and all these signs were making him feel scared. He just couldnt wait to get Mu Qing to operate upon him.
Usually he takes half a year toplete his trip. The doctor who had received him looked friendly. His chubby face was full of smiles. But what he said made Xie Zhuojun unhappy.
Half a year? So long? But I heard that your Head is always at the hospital. He rarely goes out! Xie Zhuojun had already done some research about Mu Qing beforehand. That the Head of Family Mus Hospital liked travelling wasnt amonly-known thing. He got a bit confused.
The previous doctor had already said that he couldnt wait half a year!

The doctor still smiled and said kindly, Oh really? Who said that? Our Head barely goes out, that is why he went for a long trip this time!
Helpless and anxious, Xie Zhuojun begged. Please, doctor, you know very well how sick I am. And you also said that I am not in an optimistic situation and need to have the operation as soon as possible. Can you just ask your Head to return to do the operation for me? It is a matter of life, and isnt it his duty to rescue the patients? I can pay as much as money you want, please save me! I cant tolerate my headaches any more.
Sigh, it is not a matter of money! We have standard prices for operation and they are registered in the State Administration of Commodity Price. We cant charge more than the registered price. Our Head wouldnt return tomorrow and even if he does, it wouldnt be your turn. His schedule is full until the next year and there are way too many patients asking for him. Well, Head Mu is indeed a great doctor, isnt he! Anyways, I suggest you try other hospitals, there are many hospitals in A City, arent there?
Although the doctor was smiling, he disliked Xie Zhuojun internally.
He had felt somepassion towards this man who seemed to have offended the Head which is why the Head had refused to operate upon him. But what he said, made him look less pitiful.
He was a doctor himself and hated to hear others talking about saving people was their duty as if they were all sinners if they didnt.
Doctors are human beings too and they could also get tired and their abilities were limited as well. They were definitely going to save people when they could. But a patient like Xie Zhuojun was a difficult case and his operation would be risky and might even lead to death! If that happened, the family would definitely hold a banner and im that the doctors had killed him. A simr case had happened earlier and it was quite reasonable that the Head turned him down.
Xie Zhuojun stayed at the hospital for a long time but the doctor still rejected him. Helpless, he had to go to five or six different hospitals of different scales, including the City Hospital and Affiliated Hospital of the University of X, Peoples Hospital etc.
But the only answer he received was Cyour situation is very serious but we wouldnt be able to do the operation.
And when they were asked as to who could do the operation, the answer he received was the same C Family Mus Surgeon, Mu Qing!
Desperate, Xie Zhuojun returned home and told his parents about the situation.
Couple Xie had never expected that their son could be so badly sick and they were reminded of the time when he was ina, years ago. The couple was very worried that their son would go back to how he had been before C lying in the bed and reacting to nothing.
They used all the contacts they could and threw as much money as they could and found that Mu Qing, the Head of Family Mus Hospital, and the only person who could save their son was right here, at the Hospital, and that he had turned their son down on purpose.
How could that be possible?
Family Xie had never been an enemy of Family Mu. Then why would Mu Qing turn him down and evene up with a groundless excuse of travelling.
Xie Dongfeng, who had been doing business for so long, sensed that their family had been falling into a strange situationtely C no one wanted to help them because someone else was pulling them down.
This had never happened before. It had been badgering him for the past six months. Nothing was going smoothly no matter what he did.
Many issues popped up in the daily operation of the business, and some coborators would drop their cooperation for unknown reason. Sometimes, strict tax inspection andmerce inspection woulde to theirpany all of a sudden and some key top managers and staff had resigned without any valid reason.
Their old friends and partners whom they were in an excellent coboration rtionship with, left them one after another. They even refused to answer their phone calls.
They had problems wherever they went C they couldnt check into hotels or eat at restaurants, even the hospitals didnt want to take them in.
Who on earth had Family Xie offended?
Who could be so powerful that he was able to control all the areas in A City just to push Family Xie to a dead end.
Even if that man was able to control those aspects, he would still need tremendousbor and force. It wouldnt be a good deal for him at all.
Sitting in the spacious living room, the family stayed silent. It felt suffocating when that invisible, hidden hand was gripping their hearts, choking them to death.
It felt horrible because they had no idea who he was, where he was, what he wanted and why he did what he had done.
All of them thought of one word to describe that man C A Ruler!
A long whileter, Xie Dongfeng said hoarsely, We... have offended a powerful man who shouldnt have been offended...
Xie Zhuojun looked up. He said tiredly and his eyes were dim. But, how could we have offended someone like that? We dont know anyone like that!
The father and son were frowning and pondering when Wang Lu said hesitantly, Can it be... Shangguan Ning? I feel that ever since Zhuojun broke off the engagement with her, we have always had problems, especially since the New Year. She has made fuss twice and each time she has been so intimidating and fierce. The boyfriend of hers doesnt seem like an ordinary man!
The father-son duos hearts skipped a beat.
The man beside Shangguan Ning was more than ordinary. He was so proud and ruthless, and he didnt even look at Shangguan Zheng, who had been a Deputy Mayor.
Zhuojun, do you know the man whom Shangguan Ning is dating? Xie Dongfeng seemed to sense that he was onto something, so he asked his son instantly.
Xie Zhuojun shook his head and he said as he frowned. I dont. But he is not her boyfriend. He is her husband. Shangguan Ning is married, she got married long time ago!
What?
Both Xie Dongfeng and Wang Lu were very surprised. They had thought that Shangguan Ning had ruined his engagement party and wedding only because she loved their son so deeply that she was full of jealousy.
But that had not been the reason.
I checked. She got married in Decemberst year, but her husbands information is well encrypted. I heard my friends from the Public Security Bureau that any information about her marriage has been set as the most confidential information. No one apart from the Director of Public Security Bureau is allowed to read it. It is not open to anybody else. I will ask someone to check it again to see if we can find some clues.
Having heard what his son just said, Xie Dongfeng felt himself freezing from top to bottom as if he had fallen into an icehouse!
No need, I know who that is!

Chapter 195: The Ruler (Part Two)
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Wang Lu and Xie Zhuojun looked up at him in astonishment. Who is it?
The heir of Family Jing, the New President of Jingsheng Enterprise, Jing Yichen!
That is impossible!
Wang Lu and Xie Zhuojun shouted together.
How would Shangguan Ning marry him? Family Jing is never going to ept such a daughter-inw. She has nothing going for her and even had a broken engagement.
Wang Lu felt that her husband must have been mistaken. Shangguan Ning was a girl abandoned by their son and the noble Family Jing was definitely not going to ept her. Jing Yichen was a highly positioned and mysterious man. Why would he ever marry an ordinary woman like her?
I am not mistaken. I once heard myrade-in-arms mention that all the information of Family Jing is strictly confidential and the heir of each generation has been brought out in this manner. Their information is encrypted at the highest level and is not revealed until he bes mature. That is why no one is able to find any information of Family Jing at the Public Security Bureau. One of my oldrade-in-arms, who used to be the Director of Public Security Bureau of A City, had gone missing just because he revealed the name of Jing Zhongxius wife after drinking too much.
Xie Dongfeng sounded defeated. He, who was always stable and calm was trembling slightly and looked extremely pale as well.
No other family enjoys such highly encrypted status except Family Jing, not even Family Ji! Also, as far as I know, the reason why Ji Minyu stepped down from the position of Mayor and why her road to the provincial level office was cut, was because she had offended Jing Yichen!
It suddenly became clear to Xie Dongfeng when he thought about it. He stood up abruptly and said in a low voice, Now I see! Jing Yichen must have made Shangguan Zheng step down as well!
All the unexined matters in the past suddenly became quite easy to understand.
They had failed to check into any hotel after they met Shangguan Ning during their trip to N City!
His closest and bestrade-in-arms broke off the rtionship with him after Shangguan Ning ruined his sons wedding.
Family Mus Hospital had Jingsheng Enterprise as the strongest backer, so when Shangguan Ning, thedy of Family Jing was offended, the Head of Hospital, Mu Qing refused to meet them and allowed his sons illness to get worse.
At that moment, Xie Dongfeng copsed onto the sofa as if his energy had been drained out. He mumbled, Our Family Xie is going to be ruined and I am a sinner to the ancestors of Family Xie...
Wang Lus heart broke when she saw her husband. She said quickly, That is impossible, you are just overthinking! We are doing fine right now, and what happened between Shangguan Ning and us is way in the past.
Xie Dongfeng shook his head bitterly and said hoarsely, You dont understand... you will never know how powerful Family Jing is until you get to know them. They are a very cruel family, too. Zhuojun, you have made a terrible mistake! Get ready, find your passport, just go abroad and find a good doctor there. You must never evere back here again.
Xie Zhuojun reacted strongly upon hearing the words. Father!
How could the situation have be so serious?
Must he live like an exile, so far away from his aging parents?
Father, I am not going abroad. How can I leave you and mother? They wont do anything to me. Ning is not that ruthless. I will be fine!
Boy, trust me. Go abroad. Family Jing is rtively weaker overseas and you may have an opportunity. After the ident, your mother and I heard the prophecy of a master who said that Shangguan Ning was going to have a good destiny and that you were going to wake up from thea with her beside you. That was why we tried our best and used all the possible methods to get Shangguan Ning to get engaged with you.
Father, that is superstition. I dont believe in it. Xie Zhuojun shouted. He kept telling himself that the reason why he woke up was not because of Shangguan Ning. Only in this way would he feel better inside his heart, otherwise he would always feel very guilty towards her.
No, it is not superstition. Some people can always bring good luck to others because of their nature. If Shangguan Ning had not taken care of you and kept youpany, you might never have woken up. You were sick for two years and even your mother and I had lost the confidence. It was she who didnt give up on you and tried to wake you up with different methods. Master once said that she has a good destiny and will be able to make her husband flourish. Your mother and I didnt believe that in the beginning but now I do.
It has always been us from Family Xie who betrayed Shangguan Ning. She was only 19 years old at that time and was forced into an engagement with you by us and Shangguan Zheng. She took care of you for more than two years, day and night until you finally woke up. But we broke off the engagement with her ruthlessly, right after that. What we have got today is payback. Your mother and I didnt stop you from breaking the engagement but allowed you to be together with Shangguan Rouxue. We are also responsible for what we havee to happen today and it is our duty to bear the punishment for you. But you are still young and you mustnt be ruined.
After hearing what he said, Xie Zhuojun was in tears. He cried, It is all my fault! I was too greedy and thought that Xue was better than Ning in every single way. I thought that she was a shining star and I wanted to keep her on my side. That was why I insisted on breaking off the engagement. It has nothing to do with you and mother.
Wang Lu took her son into her arms and cried loudly. It is all Shangguan Rouxues fault. What a bitch! You would never have broken off the engagement with Shangguan Ning had it not been for her.
The mother and the son whined loudly in each others arms. Xie Zhuojun took a long breath and copsed onto the sofa.
He knew clearly that Shangguan Rouxue was just part of the reason, but if Xie Zhuojun had been stubborn enough, if he had even an iota of shame and gratitude, he would not have done what he did with Shangguan Rouxue, when he was still engaged to Shangguan Ning.
After Wang Lu finished crying, she wiped her tears and said, Dongfeng, do you really think that it is so serious? I dont think that Shangguan Ning can be so fierce. She cant just let our son die. We did have some rtionship before.
Rtionship? Xie Dongfengughed bitterly. We owe her everything and she owes us nothing, can you think of anything that she owes us?
Wang Lu was struck by what he said.
Shangguan Ning really didnt owe them anything after she pondered over the entire matter carefully.
But Wang Lu couldnt give up so easily. Her son was her everything and she couldnt live without him.
The following day, Wang Lu asked Xie Zhuojun for Shangguan Nings number and called her, wanting to have a meeting with her.
Shangguan Ning picked up the phone and was quite startled for a few seconds upon hearing the voice from the other side of the phone.
She never expected to receive a call from Wang Lu.

Shangguan Ning didnt have good rtions with anyone in Family Xie so she turned her down politely, I am sorry, I dont have the time to meet.
Wang Lu started pleading on the phone. Ning, please meet me, I am begging you. I just want to apologize to you face to face, and talk with you. It wont take much of your time!
Shangguan Ning would have agreed had it been four years ago, but after being so badly hurt and tricked by them, Shangguan Ning had be iron-hearted.
What she received as payback from the family all those years ago, was just a ne ticket and a sentence Cour son doesnt need you anymore!
Laws and prisons would not be needed if apology worked! Just concentrate on your lovely daughter-inw. I am busy and cant talk right now, goodbye!
Shangguan Ning hung up the phone after uttering these words.
Suddenly, she was engulfed by a pair of warm arms. A familiar voice spoke from behind her. Well done, that is exactly how you should behave. My wife is not free to meet any and everybody.
You heard my conversation? Shangguan Ning sounded calm but slightly upset.
Jing Yichen turned her around to face him. He held her palm-sized face in his hands and said, You are not allowed to get upset because of their calls.
He had not told Shangguan Ning that Xie Zhuojun was dying. Would she burst into tears upon hearing that, when she already had such a sad expression on her face right now?
The thought annoyed Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. She slipped her hands around his waist and smiled. I am not upset on their behalf. I am just disappointed that people are always so tricky. They only think of me when I can be of some use to them. At that time, they speak in such a polite way and when I am of no use, they just want me to disappear from the earth as soon as possible. Am I that stupid to live under their shadow forever and to be manipted by them all the time?
She was living a stable and happy life because of the man in front of her. He cared for her and, she had started to shine brightly once again and find her true self. She wanted to give her everything to the rtionship between them and enjoy their cozy, romantic life. She didnt want anyone to ruin that.
Therefore, she was not going to meet Wang Lu, no matter what reasons and excuses she put forward. She didnt want to have any association with her.
No one is worth my tears except you. Shangguan Ning leaned her head into his arms after she said the words calmly.
Hearing her exin the reason for her being upset, Jing Yichen finally smiled.
It was a pleasant evening. Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen ate dinner, changed and went for a stroll alongside the sea, hand in hand. They talked andughed, walking happily. All of a sudden, a woman popped up from behind the flower shrubs and stood in their way.
Jing Yichen subconsciously stopped in front of Shangguan Ning and was about to kick away the woman out of instinct when Shangguan Ning stopped him. Dont, Yichen!
Jing Yichen withdrew his leg and watched the woman gradually getting down to her knees.
Jing Yichen had a terrible expression on his face.
The lovely time which he had been enjoying with his wife was ruined by this woman.
Now she was kneeling down. Did he look like someone whose heart would melt because of her actions?
He held Shangguan Nings hand trying to leave, but Shangguan Ning didnt move. She came ahead of Jing Yichen and looked at the woman sitting on knees.
It was Wang Lu, Xie Zhuojuns mother who had stopped them.
In a calm voice, she said, Mrs. Xie, your son and your daughter-inw used this method, four years ago. This doesnt work on me any more.
Hearing what Shangguan Ning said, she still stayed where she was. She would do anything for her son.
Ning, I know that it was Zhuojun who betrayed you. But love is not something which can be forced. Besides, he is already being punished. So please, forgive him and save him. I am begging you to please help him.
Wang Lu sounded sorrowful and she had put herself in a very demeaning position. She looked exactly like a woman who was cornered and had no way out.
But Shangguan Ning wasnt moved. She asked in bewilderment, What do you mean? What is wrong with your son?
Wang Lu was a very smart woman. Judging from Shangguan Nings expressions, she knew that Ning wasnt pretending when she asked about her son.
That basically meant that it was Jing Yichen, the most powerful man in A City and the one who had defended her just now, who had driven Family Xie to the cliff.
She spoke to Jing Yichen amidst tears, Master Jing, please help my son. His treatment can not be dyed any further. Please speak with Head Mu and ask him to operate upon my son. I can pay you whatever you want. Ning knows exactly what happened years ago. My son is also a victim in this case. He is a good child, and it was Shangguan Rouxue who had lied to him because of which he did something stupid.
Before Jing Yichen could say anything, Shangguan Ning told her coldly, Mrs. Xie,speak with me on this matter. Leave my husband out of this. If you still havent understood what happened years ago, please go home and ask your son rather than telling a fake story here. If your son had been muddle-headed back then, then were you also the same, to give me a ne ticket and send me abroad?
Shangguan Ning didnt know what Wang Lu was talking about, but she didnt want to get Jing Yichen to be involved in the loathed matter between her and Xie Zhuojun. He didnt have anything to do with it.
Wang Lu was stuck. She didnt know what to say. I...
Yes, it was I who forbid Family Mu to operate upon your son. If you continue to stay here on knees, your son will not even see tomorrows sunrise before he turns into a vegetative man! Jing Yichen said ruthlessly.
He looked at Wang Lu as if he were staring at a dead woman. No one had ever dared to block his way.
Shangguan Ning was startled. She gave him a surprised look. What did he mean?
Operation? Vegetative man? What was wrong with Xie Zhuojun?
Having said those words, Jing Yichen held Shangguan Nings arms and strode away.
Wang Lu was about to run behind them them when two tall, strong men dressed in ck came swiftly and knocked her out. Then they dragged her as if they were dragging a piece of dirty rag and stuffed her into a car before disappearing in darkness.
Shangguan Ning was quiet on the way home.
Jing Yichen nced at his wifes expressionless face. He realised that she hadnt shown any doubt or disbelief, but had held his hand and walked home serenely.
Why arent you asking me anything? Jing Yichen pulled her shoulders and took her into his arms.
Shangguan Ning looked at him and said softly, You would tell me when you want to. I am not worried about anything that you do.
Even if I make Xie Zhuojun die?

Shangguan Ning blinked and said, Actually, I have never thought that there is anything good about him being alive.
So vicious?
Scared? You didnt expect that you have married a vicious woman, right? Well, there is no way out anymore. Toote for you! I will definitely hold onto my position as thedy of Family Jing.
Jing Yichen looked quite calm and said in a rxed tone, I will not allow anyone else to take your position. You are vicious and I am ruthless, the perfect couple. We can do bad things together.
Jing Yichen held her hand and walked slowly on the wood nk. He recounted the entire incident to Shangguan Ning in his low, maic voice.
After hearing the story, Shangguan Ning finally understood what Wang Lu had meant.
Wang Lu must have thought that it was she who had stopped Mu Qing from rescuing Xie Zhuojun.
Shangguan Ning could talk in a vicious way, but as a matter of fact, she had never thought about letting Xie Zhuojun die. She was not that cruel.
Jing Yichen knew what Shangguan Ning was thinking. She was a woman who fed stray cats in thepound and gave food and clothes to children at the orphanage. How would a woman like her watch Xie Zhuojun die without doing anything? That is why he hadnt told her about it at the beginning.
If Shangguan Ning hadnt known about this matter, it would have gone ahead without any problem. But now she was not going to pretend that she didnt know about it.
Yichen...
I know, Ning, dont worry. Xie Zhuojun wont die.
He was going to suffer and wish that he died.
Jing Yichens teeth were slightly clenched. Xie Zhuojun was such an irritating person who had ruined his wonderful night and troubled his wife.
Brain operation is a very risky procedure. Mu Qing is too young to do this kind of operation. Dont worry, Mu Qing is not the only doctor in the entire world. There are many top-notch doctors everywhere. They are not stupid people,. They will go abroad for the operation when they cant do it here.
Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief. She didnt want Xie Zhuojun to live a good life, but she didnt want him to lose his life because of her. When he was in aa, she had stood by his side for more than seven hundred days and nights. She owed him nothing, and she didnt want to feel guilty because of this issue.
It would be best if he could go abroad for medical treatment, so that Wang Lu would not be able to me her incase Mu Qing was to fail in the operation. It was likely that even Mu Qing would have had to take the me from Wang Lu as well if the operation was to go bad.
...
At the vi of Family Xie, Xie Zhuojun got both surprised and annoyed seeing that Wang Lu returned in such a condition. But his father was at thepany to deal with the contract problem and he wasnt a match against the two strong men, so he pushed his anger deep down.
He didnt know what was going on until Wang Lu woke up.
In anger, he swallowed some painkillers and drove to Jingsheng the following morning.
He just wanted to ask Shangguan Ning about how she could treat his mother like this. They had hurt her and sent her home. How could she be so cruel? He also wanted to ask her if she wanted him to die so badly?
But when he arrived at Jingsheng, he was told that Shangguan Ning wasnt at the enterprise. After many efforts, he got to know that Shangguan Ning was in charge of the media affairs of Jingsheng Enterprise and had gone to the filming set with the Director of Media.
He immediately rushed to the filming set C the central park of A City.
The park was temporarily closed due to the filming. No one was allowed inside.
Xie Zhuojun stuffed a pile of money into the security guards pocket before he was allowed inside.
There were many people at the set and some famous stars who were rarely seen in everyday life were also standing there. There were many staff members who were assembled in a group. A man and a woman were standing in the middle. Xie Zhuojun didnt recognize the man whom he assumed to be the Director of the Media at Jingsheng Enterprise whilst the woman was none other than Shangguan Ning.
She was dressed in a light green dress and a pair of high-heels of the same color. She had a thin golden belt around her waist, looking elegant and beautiful, fresh like a new spout of a tender willow tree. She didnt pale in front of those shining stars.
Because of her confidence andposure, she looked even more noble than the rest of the people.
Everyone had surrounded her and tried to talk with her, one after another. She replied to queries, gracefully. The Director of Media standing beside her was just like her assistant, who helped her keep a distance from the group whilst exining something to her.
Soon, they left the shooting spot and started to walk alongside the rock path in the park. They seemed to be looking for someone.
Xie Zhuojun was about to catch up with them when he suddenly noticed a familiar silhouette among the actors and actresses.
Shangguan Rouxue!
Why was she here as well? Wasnt she resting at home during her pregnancy? When he had gone home yesterday, she imed that she didnt go anywhere, even the programs at the TV Station were suspended.
Also, she had a huge mask on her hair and face, covering itpletely as if she didnt want to be seen.
Xie Zhuojun gave up following Shangguan Ning and chose to follow Shangguan Rouxue instead.
He wanted to catch Shangguan Rouxue red handed so that he could divorce her as soon as possible. Post that he wouldnt need to talk with her in a polite manner anymore.
The very next minute he was shocked.
He saw that Shangguan Rouxue deliberately bumped herself against a tall man with her stomach.
At this moment, Xie Zhuojun understood clearly that Shangguan Rouxue had no ns to keep this child.
He suddenly shivered. He had underestimated Shangguan Rouxues viciousness. She could be so cruel as to try and kill her own child.
Shangguan Rouxue had known that the President of Jinsgheng Enterprise woulde to the set for a brief inspection.
But she didnt see anyone who looked like the President. Instead, she saw Shangguan Ning standing among a group of actors and directing people around.
She was nothing more than a minor assistant, how could she have so much power?
Shangguan Rouxue was very displeased in heart. She had never lost to Shangguan Ning and she was not going to lose to her even now.
She was very confident about her looks. No man could resist falling in love with her whenever they saw her.
Therefore, she had been asking about the President of Jingsheng Enterprise. She wanted to have an encounter with him that he was never going to forget in his life.
It was a trick that always worked.
It was because of the encounter which she had had with Xie Zhuojun years back that Xie Zhuojun was stunned by her. So much so that they hadnt waited and slept with each other immediately afterwards. Then he had abandoned Shangguan Ning and chose her instead.
But the President of Jingsheng Enterprise wasnt an ordinary man, so Shangguan Rouxue wanted to use her unborn kid as part of the n too.

If she lost her baby identally because of her bumping against the President of Jingsheng Enterprise, then she could copse into his arms with a pale and pitiful look after removing her mask and showing her beautiful face. That would be enough to leave a longsting impression upon him.
Jing Yirans sinister voice spoke in Shangguan Rouxues micro-earphones, The man in front of you, the one whose back is facing you, is the President of Jingsheng Enterprise. She bumped herself against him without hesitation.
But before she could bump into him, she was taken into someone elses arms.
She felt something weird was going on, so she opened her eyes and her face lost all its colour out of fright. Zhuo... zhuojun? What... are you doing here?
Xie Zhuojun badly wanted to toss her to the ground because he thought that she was extremely filthy.
But he couldnt! He couldnt allow Shangguan Rouxue to lose the baby because of him.
He needed this child alive to divorce Shangguan Rouxue.
He looked very sinister. He helped Shangguan Rouxue to stand on her feet and looked at Jing Yichen who was just turning to face them. I apologize, my wife was not careful right now. Now, since I have met you, I would like to ask if it is you who is behind Family Mus Hospital?
Jing Yichen had a closed expression on his face. He showed no emotion and regarded them as if he were looking at strangers. He seemed to have heard nothing and was looking faraway in the distance as if there was some great treasure kept there.
Tiger who was standing beside him was ring at Shangguan Rouxue fiercely. He seemed to be at the edge of tearing Shangguan Rouxue apart. His arms were still outstretched to protect Jing Yichen. Apparently, even if Xie Zhuojun hadnt stopped Shangguan Rouxue, she wouldnt have been able to bump herself against Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Rouxue pressed down the panic inside her heart after hearing what Xie Zhuojun said and looked up.
The moment she saw Jing Yichens face, she burst out. It is you? You are Jing Yichen?
This was impossible! How could he be the President of Jingsheng Enterprise?
Jing Yirans wildughter and mocking voice came through the earphones. Hahaha, Shangguan Rouxue, you are way too stupid. You didnt even know who your sister got married to? Havent you met your brother-inw many times already? Well? Surprised? Still want to seduce him? It must be a funny scene. Someone wants to seduce the Elder Master of Family Jing even as a pregnant woman! Jing Yichen, how lucky ... hahahaha!
Jing Yichen spoke arrogantly as if he had heard what Jing Yiran said, Jing Yiran, you better run fast, or you might suffer a lot.
He had just finished his words when a loud booming sound arose close-by. Then Shangguan Rouxue heard screamsing out of the earphone.
Before everyone could recover from the astonishment of the explosion, a sharp voice arose from the set. No one moves! I want to punch someone!
Startled, everyone turned to the girl in the green dress who was quickly approaching them.
She ripped off Shangguan Rouxues mask and pped her right on her face.
p! Shangguan Rouxue got pped hard on the face. Her white face swelled up instantly.
Sister! You...
Shangguan Ning interrupted her coldly, I told you many times, my mother only had one daughter and as a result, I dont have a sister. Dont address me in this way. Also, if you dare to n anything with regards to my husband any more, I will pour sulphuric acid on you. Now, get out of here.
Shangguan Rouxue had never seen Shangguan Ning behave like this. She got startled when she pped and swore at her.
But Xie Zhuojun immediately spoke up, at the sight of Shangguan Ning. Ning, you...
You get out of here now, too. I dont want to see either of you here. Piss off if you dont want to die!
Xie Zhuojun was also startled. He had never seen Shangguan Ning acting so roughly. It didnt go with her gentle and elegant appearance.
Tiger had rarely seen the Lady get angry, so he drove them out forcibly, immediately. He also tried to stay away from the angry mistress.
When everyone left, Jing Yichen took off the jacket that Shangguan Rouxue had barely touched and tossed it onto the ground. He came to his wife, took her hand in his own and blew upon it. Hurts?
He sounded very cheerful and proud. He was in a very good mood.
Shangguan Ning also felt much better after the p and cursing.
She had seen the exact moment when Shangguan Rouxue was about to bump into Jing Yichen.
She hadnt expected that Shangguan Rouxue would be so shameless that she wanted to employ the same method which she had used on Xie Zhujun.
For one moment she got extremely angry. If she really had sulphuric acid with her, she would have definitely sshed it on Shangguan Rouxues face!
Shangguan Rouxue had taken away Xie Zhuojun and now she was nning on getting Jing Yichen.
She was just furious!
Jing Yichen was her husband, and no one dare try anything with him, especially Shangguan Rouxue.
She was going to protect her own and wont allow anyone to take him away.
Jing Yichen nted a tender kiss on Shangguan Nings forehead. Well, very vicious! I didnt know that my wife could get so jealous that the entire park was full of jealousy.
No peeking at other women!
Jing Yichen ....
When did he ever look at any woman apart from her? He didnt even nce at Shangguan Rouxue.
No talking with other women!
.....
He didnt even exchange a single word with Shangguan Rouxue, did he?
No touching other women, no... oh...
Jing Yichens sudden kiss ate up whatever next that she was about to say.
She was almost smothered by his lips.
A long whileter, when Shangguan Ning was almost out of breath, Jing Yichen let go of her and whispered. Silly, dont you know that you are the only one!
His words pleased Shangguan Ning immensely. She felt happiness flowing in her heart and the feeling of jealousy dissipating gradually.
Why did you remove your jacket? Shangguan Ning went to pick it up once she had cooled down.
I dont want it any more. Jing Yichen said softly.
Why? Thats not wise! The suit was tailor-made and worth hundreds of millions of yuan.
No need to worry about it. Your husband weighs diamonds by kilograms and takes nes as taxis. How much can a suit be worth? Jing Yichen hated to be touched by people, and he wasnt going to wear the clothes that Shangguan Rouxue had touched.
Speechless, Shangguan Ning said after a while, You really behave like a coal mine owner!

At the emergency room of Family Mus Hospital, Mu Qing was proficiently dealing with Jing Yiran who was covered with blood.
I have met many people who like causing trouble, but I have never met anyone who is so fascinated with troublemaking as much as you. Its a miracle that you are still alive. You dared to team up with a pregnant woman to seduce Master Jing! Do you think that he is like you who takes to all kinds of women no matter whether or not they are from high or low born family?
Jing Yiran kept taking in deep breaths because of the wound caused by the bombing. Mu Qing, you are asking for death! It hurts so much. Get the drug for me. Also, I didnt make that bitch do what she wants to do. It was she who thought that she could sessfully seduce Jing Yichen despite being pregnant. I have nothing to do with it, I was just helping her to find the man.
I have drugged you already, but it wont help much because your wound is on the surface. Just get on with it, you even went through the needle I put into you without the drugs. Drugs cant be used too often because they are poisonous. If you want all sensation to go away from your body, then I can put you into a bathtub of drugs.
Mu Qing didnt avoid drugging Jing Yiran on purpose. He had just got too many wounds on the body and he couldnt get the full-body drugged, so all he could do was to tolerate the pain.
They were talking when Mu Qings phone started to ring in his pocket. He removed one of his rubber gloves and picked up the phone. Hello, Master Jing!
Jing Yiran, who waspletely naked on the operation desk and was bleeding, bellowed furiously, Mu Qing you damned bastard! Are you a doctor or not? This is an emergency room. Why are you attending to phone calls. Stitch me up before I bleed out.
Mu Qing said to his assistant instantly. Get one more bag of blood into him, dont let him bleed out. Or I cant face his grandma.
Then he reported to Jing Yichen as he stitched up Jing Yiran single-handed. Dont worry, Master Jing, he wont die as long as he is here. He seems to be fine because he still has the energy to curse me. But he has to get through much suffering, and it seems that he cant get off the bed for quite a long time.
Jing Yichen answered with a calm okay from the other side of the phone and hung up.
As long as Jing Yiran didnt die, and suffered a bit more, it would be the ideal scenario.
Shangguan Ning, who was right beside Jing Yichen, could hear the painful screaming and furious bellowing. She said furiously, Serves him right!
That he had teamed up with Shangguan Rouxue and helped her to seduce Jing Yichen made Shangguan Ning so angry.
Shangguan Rouxue was already enough for her to deal with. Getting together with Jing Yiran who had no bottom-line for whatever he did, they could do horrible stuff together.
Therefore, Shangguan Ning decided to deal with Shangguan Rouxue first.
Jing Yichen was a bit surprised. He took her onto his legs as he fiddled with her smooth hair which had grown longer and asked calmly, Do you have ways to deal with Shangguan Rouxue? Why didnt you use them earlier?
Shangguan Ning lifted her exquisite chin arrogantly. Of course I do! I lived with her mother and her under the same roof for so many years and they have done so many terrible things. If If I wanted, I could have got them ages ago. I didnt bother with it earlier only because I was too soft-hearted to kill her.
What about now?
I wont let go of her when she has dared to touch my man!
The phrase my man pleased Jing Yichen. He smiled gently. So this little woman was still feeling jealous about what happened today!.
She was really a jealous woman!
When Tang Yun had imed herself to be his fiance, he didnt see Shangguan Ning getting so furious. Apparently, Shangguan Rouxue had cast too big a shadow upon her heart because of which she felt extremely unsafe with her around.
Shangguan Rouxue was, first of all, not so lovely anyway. Besides, she was vicious and full of terrible tricks, and she even bumped into him with a child whose father was unknown. All of these things made her a disgusting woman in his eyes.
How could he ever like such a woman?
His heart was only for Shangguan Ning.
Only a man like Xie Zhuojun who had clots inside his brain would want to marry Shangguan Rouxue.
Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning in his arms and put his chin against her forehead as heforted her in a spoiling way. Alright, alright, we mustnt let go of her. This woman must be banned from being a hostess or an actress. But right now, someone might be angrier with her than you are.
Jing Yichen was right. After driven away by Tiger, Xie Zhuojun brought Shangguan Rouxue into his car. Before Shangguan Rouxue could sit properly, he pped her hard on the face.
Shangguan Rouxue had not rested well during the past few days, and although she had little morning sickness after she got pregnant, yet in order to stay slender, she still avoided meat and ate only 60 % full at meal time, not caring if the baby in her stomach would need nutrition C she didnt n to keep this child any way.
Therefore, she was suffering from anemia more than usual. Because of theck of nutrients, she felt dizzy and after being pped twice, she almost passed out in the seat.
She got pped three times plus the fierce one which Shangguan Ning had given her. Her cheeks were swelling and she was no longer looking pretty.
Blood flowed out of Shangguan Rouxues lips but she didnt lift her hands to wipe it off. Large drops of tears trickled down from her beautiful eyes.
Are you still human, Shangguan Rouxue? You are so vicious that you dared to risk your child. Arent you afraid of being punished by God?
Xie Zhuojun was extremely furious. There was abnormal redness on his pale face.
I am not dead yet and you are thinking about seducing another man with the child in your belly? I must have been blind to have fallen for you. Are you so fascinated with seducing brother-inws, first me, and now Jing Yichen? You are so shameless and indecent
Xie Zhuojun thought of the first time he had run into Shangguan Rouxue, which resembled the scene when Shangguan Rouxue tried to bump herself against Jing Yichen just now. At that time, he also turned around his head identally and bumped Shangguan Rouxue onto the ground because of which she had twisted her ankle. Then he had had to carry her all the way to the schools medical room.
He had thought that she was an angel from the sky whom he had found. But it all turned out to be false and had been a trap set up by Shangguan Rouxue.

Xie Zhuojun became indescribably grievous and sad at the bottom of his heart. He even had the impulse of killing Shangguan Rouxue.
You can be vicious and pretentious, and I was tolerating that, because I thought that at least you loved me for real and were true to me. But it seems that everything is false. You are so jealous of Shangguan Ning that you want to get everything that belongs to her. I am just a tool for you to beat Shangguan Ning. Shangguan Rouxue, why dont you just die? What is the point of your living?
Shangguan Rouxue had gotten quite anxious the moment she saw Xie Zhuojun today, and it increased when she heard what he said.
You misunderstood me, Zhuojun. I had never nned to get Sisters husband. I only love you! And I didnt do anything on purpose today. I just heard from others that he is the President of Jingsheng Enterprise so I just wanted to get to know him. Doesnt mother say that ourpany has got unsold products piled up? I just wanted to make Jingsheng Enterprise cooperate with ourpany.
But Xie Zhuojun didnt believe what she said. Shangguan Rouxue had met Jing Yichen numerous times, and even if she didnt know who he was, she would still remember what he looked like.
You are still talking nonsense. Have you ever said anything real since I got to know you?
It felt terrible to live in a world of lies.
Xie Zhuojun felt that it was just a nightmare which he was stuck in. He had been spinning in the same ce for four years in a row but it felt that he had been all over the world.
Zhuojun, you mustnt misunderstand me. I have only loved you in my entire life, and I have been true to you. I have done everything for your sake. I didnt get together with you because I was jealous of Sister, but because I love you! That is why I tried my best to approach you.
You love me? Xie Zhuojun sounded sorrowful and mocking. If you love me, then why are you still seducing other men? And why do you refuse to give birth to my baby and tried to kill him in this way just now?
I didnt! Shangguan Rouxue tried to exin anxiously. She was very worried now. I just told you that I didnt do that on purpose. I love kids so much. How could I ever want to hurt our baby. You have misunderstood me, Zhuojun!
Xie Zhuojun sneered. Alright then, from today on, you must stay at home and take good care of the baby until it is born. You arent allowed to go anywhere until the delivery.
Shangguan Rouxue got astonished. That wont work. I need to go to the TV Station and I need to visit my parents and help my friends.
Unmoved, Xie Zhuojun stared at her with a pair of cold eyes. Thats it. You are staying home from today onwards.
Yang Wenshu came to visit Shangguan Rouxue when she was forced to stay at home after two days.
The itch had already stopped, but terrible scars remained because of her scratching. Pits covered her face and she looked very scary.
Therefore, she wore long sleeves and long pants and a huge mask, covering up her entire face.
Shangguan Rouxue threw herself into her mothers arms. Mom, Zhuojun doesnt want me to go out. He is forcing me to stay at home to give birth to baby. Please save me!
My darling daughter, dont cry! I have visited your grandmother and she has agreed to help us. Xie Zhuojun will be nice to you and Family Xie will love you. As for Shangguan Ning, she will definitely die.
Yang Wenshus grandmother was the famous Family Yang in A City, with the third biggest property in A City, just after Family Jing and Family Ji.
However, Yang Wenshu was not the real daughter of the olddy of Family Yang, but the child born by the old man with some other woman. That was why she was never liked byFamily Yang. She was a love-child and she didnt have any position or was worth mentioning at Family Yang, who had other children.
But Yang Wenshu never wanted to speak with her real mother. Instead, she regarded the olddy of Family Yang as her real mother. She treated her well and she followed her everywhere she went. So in other peoples eyes, she seemed to be doing well at Family Yang.
Besides, after she married Shangguan Zheng, the Deputy Mayor, Family Yang started to be friendly with her. After all, Deputy-Mayor was a nice title.
The olddy of Family Yang didnt like the bastard of her husbands mistress, but she cared about her reputation a lot. Seeing that Yang Wenshu had be so horrible-looking, she didnt find it proper to leave her alone. What was more, Yang Wenshu put efforts upon giving her many presents every year and her daughter Shangguan Rouxue was quite popr as a famous hostess in A City.
The anger which she had when she was young, had already gone down. The Old Man was already dead and his mistress had been forced to die as well. She was the only living one and possessed arge amount of money.
Really? Grandmother agreed to help us? Shangguan Rouxue sounded quite surprised.
Yes, your grandmother has agreed to take the revenge. Just wait at home for the good news. I may need to go abroad to cure my face, so you better take good care of yourself. Also, Xue... I suggest that you keep the baby, and give birth to the child. Because... the Station staff visited home and left a termination letter, saying that they want to end the coboration with you and you will not be hired ever again.
Shangguan Rouxue almost passed out after hearing the words. She couldnt stand on her feet.
How could that possible! Didnt Jing Yiran already help her to solve the problem at TV Station?
She said anxiously, Mom, TV Station asked me to return for the program earlier. It has just been two days and they changed it again? I must go and ask them what it is going on. Who is setting me up behind my back. Mom, pleasee to the hospital with me and get rid of the child. I am still too young to give birth to a baby and turn into an old-looking woman. My future as a star will be ruined!
Her mother said, Xue, you dont need to ask the big boss anything any more, because... what you have done with the Head of Station is known across the entire Station. It is said that the wife already knows everything and she got so furious that she passed out. When she woke up, she sent someone to deliver the termination contract to us.
Actually, not only the TV Station, but also everyone across the streets and alleys knew that Shangguan Rouxue became a hostess because of her body not because of her ability.
What? Shangguan Rouxue paled further. The hope inside her was disappearing little by little.
Chapter 201 - Reputation Ruined (Part Three)
Chapter 201: Reputation Ruined (Part Three)
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
What she had done with the Head of Station was private. How could it have been known to anybody? Who spilled the beans? It couldnt have been the Head himself, because he was timid and afraid of his wife. He would not have dared to tell anyone about it.
Mom, you must get someone to check it up for me. Who on earth spilled the beans? Shangguan Rouxue was looking increasingly vicious. Fingers clenched, knuckles cracked, it looked as if she wanted to choke that person to death.
Yang Wenshu held her daughter in her arms and said with a vicious look. Who else can it be? It must have been the bitch Shangguan Ning! I have checked it out and she didnt try to hide what she did either. She wanted to let us know that it was she who did it. That little bitch. I should have poisoned her to death years back so that we could avoid all this trouble now.
Mom, cant we just ask grandmother to... Shangguan Rouxue lowered her voice.
Dont worry, grandmother has already promised me. We wont have to wait for too long. Yang Wenshu understood what her daughter meant, so she gave her a positive response instantly.
She wont live any more. It has just been a few days and already our two beauty salons, and three restaurants have been sealed up by the Industrial and Commerce Bureau and Tax Bureau! All of this must be the work of this little bitch. She has done this so that our little nest egg is gonepletely. You mustnt leave Family Xie, because they have plenty of money and Xie Zhuojun is nice to you. You can just pamper him whenever he argues with you. Family Xie is a wealthy family in A City and you can enjoy a good life there so that the little bitch Shangguan Ning can get pissed to death!
Shangguan Rouxue was about to say something after hearing what she said.
The tall, and handsome look of Jing Yichen emerged inside her brain.
She still remembered that the car he drove was the super luxurious Aston Martin, and that too a limited version. He always seemed to have powerful bodyguards beside him and looked distant and cold as if Shangguan Ning was the only one in his eyes. He didnt even want to even look at her.
So he was Jing Yichen, the President of Jingsheng Enterprise.
The only heir of Family Jing, even above Jing Yiran, who was the love child. The entire family business would belong to Jing Yichen in the future!
People only knew the name of Jing Yichens mother and the fact that she was the only wife of Jing Zhongxiu although she was dead. No one knew who Jing Yirans mother was.
So this legendary man turned out to be Shangguan Nings husband.
Shangguan Rouxue truly couldnt ept this fact.
Shangguan Ning was the woman Xie Zhuojun had abandoned, the woman least liked in the family and the woman who had lost to her in everything. What redeeming qualities did she possess to have married such an outstanding man like Jing Yichen.
No wonder every time she met Jing Yichen, she had a feeling of someone being superior. No wonder Jing Yiran lost at the engagement party.
The rival was too powerful to ever be beaten. He was a legend!
Shangguan Rouxues nail pierced into her palms flesh deeply, but she didnt feel the pain at all!
Mother knew nothing. Xie Zhuojun was indeed an outstanding, wealthy man in A City, yetpared to Jing Yichen, he was simply nothing. Compared to Family Jing, Family Xie were just like an ant facing an elephant. What was more, Xie Zhuojun already hated her now and he could beat or scold her whenever she did something wrong. He was no longer gentle or caring like before.
Shangguan Ning had already be the winner with Jing Yichen as her husband. Shangguan Rouxue would have no chance to turn the tables.
But grandmother was a vicious and sinister woman. She didnt do anything on the surface. So Shangguan Ning was definitely going to die!
Shangguan Rouxue got slightly less anxious but said worriedly, Can we ask grandmother to help us recover our stores?
Their stores had been tremendously profitable, especially the two beauty salons which brought in a great deal of money every single day. It was always very easy to make money from women.
But all of these were her dowry. She had lost the job as the hostess and if she didnt have any properties with her, she wasnt going to have a position in Family Xie!
I didnt tell your father about our beauty salons and restaurants. If he knew about it, he would have med us for swallowing down his money and refuse to help us. I had no way out, except for turning to Family Yang. The Old Lady didnt agree to help until I agreed to share 70% of the revenue with Family Yang. Yang Wenshu told her daughter the truth in a whisper.
Shangguan Rouxue got angry. 70%! They might as well rob the bank.
It is fine! It is our staff at the stores and it would be easy to make a fake ount. Dont worry about that. The most important thing right now is to reopen our stores with their help.
Yang Wenshus eyes twinkled with brightness. She wasnt going to share the money which she had earned, with others.
Also, Xue, I saw Xie Zhuojunst time I went to the hospital for my face. I got to know from the doctor that he is not well and maybe wont be able to father a child in the future. This child may be the only heir of Family Xie and you must keep it well. After that, the properties of Family Xie would be yours.
Mom, I married Zhuojun not only for their money, but because I like Zhuojun. You said that something is wrong with Zhuojun and that he cant have a child in the future? Can it be... that his organ is not functional? But he didnt have any problem in that aspect... before I got pregnant. Shangguan Rouxue said positively after pondering for a

The newspapers headline turned out to be a series of terrible things about Shangguan Rouxue, including her undergoing a stic surgery, concealing her real age, getting involved with a married man etc. These sins covered the entire page and each of them had enough convincing evidence and pictures attached alongwith.
Shangguan Rouxues reputation was ruined overnight and she became the woman whom everyone hated in A City.
Xie Zhuojun refused to go back home and stayed at his parents ce throughout the episode. He kept going here and there, getting ready for the operation abroad.
At first, Wang Lu had thought that Shangguan Rouxue might have been pregnant with her sons child, so she still went to take care of her. After knowing about her terrible deeds, including the truth about her beautiful face, she hated her to an extreme degree and refused to take care of her any more.
Yang Wenshu had gone to South Korea for a face treatment, so Shangguan Rouxue stayed at the vi alone every single day. She soon went into depression.
...
Shangguan Ning had now stopped driving to work, alone. Instead, President Jing became her driver.
Sometimes, Jing Yichen would drive his own car and sometimes Shangguan Nings car, because Jing Yichens car was way too conspicuous and many employees at Jingsheng recognised it.
Sitting in her office, Shangguan Ning was reading about Shangguan Rouxues terrible things in the newspaper. She felt a bit better in heart.
She hadnt need to do anything except send some information which she was aware of, to the entertainment journalists, who would dig out everything about Shangguan Rouxues past with their ability.
Whether or not Shangguan Rouxue had done stic surgery was unknown to Shangguan Ning, because she had looked good since she was young but she looked quite different when she grew up. She had still kept the eyes and eyebrows, but her face became smaller, features prettier, for camera.
What she definitely knew was that Shangguan Rouxue had changed her age.
Actually, she was as old as Shangguan Ning. When her mother Huang Liyu was pregnant, Yang Wenshu had already be pregnant, yet Huang Liyu hadnt known about her existence until ten yearster, when Yang Wenshu came to the door with her child. By that time she knew that the husband whom she deeply loved, had had an affair when she was pregnant.
When Shangguan Rouxue grew up, she gained the title as the campus it-girl born in the 90s and the beautiful hostess born in the 90s by changing her real age. She had even begged Ning not to reveal her real age.
Shangguan Ning was reading the newspaper when Jing Yichen opened her office door and walked in. He stood opposite her, separated by a table and said. Assistant Shangguan, are you avable now?
He looked serious and formal, making Shangguan Ning assume that he had something to tell her regarding work. So she stood up instantly and said in a formal tone, Yes, President, tell me what would you like me to do.
Oh, then can youe and kiss me? I have missed you.
Shangguan Ning flushed instantly. She nced at the open office door in panic and saw that no one was outside. Then she red at him and said in a low voice, Shut up!
But you asked me to tell you what to do just now. I did, so why arent you doing that?
I am busy, get out now, go back to your office.
Didnt you just say that you are avable?
Not any more.
But I am avable. When I am avable, I have nothing else to do but to miss you.
Shangguan Nings heart skipped a beat as if it was a hopping deer.
The man in front of her looked so handsome. He spoke in such a way that people just couldnt help but get immersed in his words. No one could have expected that Jing Yichen who looked distant and affectionless would be so emotional when it came to his confessing his love.
Do you miss me? Jing Yichen asked, seeing that she was silent.
Arent you standing in front of me? Shangguan Nings voice softened. A smile hovered on her lips.
I want to kiss you.
.....
He was talking more and more shamelessly, not even caring about the surroundings.
Having said the words, Jing Yichen leapt over the desk, held her head with his broad hands and kissed her without hesitation.
He blew hot air into her mouth gently, making Shangguan Ning forget about her whereabouts and put herself at the mercy.
They were kissing passionately when a voice came from the door. Assistant Shangguan, here is your...
The voice stopped halfway.
Embarrassed, Shangguan Ning pushed Jing Yichen away instantly.
Jing Yichen said calmly as if nothing had happened. You can leave the thing at the table.
Lu Qing left the package on the desk with a flushed face before turning away quickly C it was the most embarrassing experience Lu Qing had been through after entering Jingsheng Enterprise.
He had never expected that a cold man like Jing Yichen would kiss his assistant passionately in her office without caring about anything.
Although the assistant was his wife, yet that scene really made the conventional Lu Qing flush.
Alright, he is gone now. No one wille to disturb us anymore, lets continue.
Jing Yichen came towards her to take his shy wife into his arms, once again.
Shangguan Ning didnt want to look up no matter how much he wanted it.
Oh she was done. This was so embarrassing!
How would Lu Qing treat her in the future?
Would he think that she was the troublemaker that had turned the President into someone who only focused upon love now?
She pursed her lips furiously as she continued looking down. It is all your fault, Jing Yichen. You are so bad that Assistant Lus good impression of me is gone now.
What do you want his good impression for? I wont allow any other men to form a good impression of you.
What? They were talking about different kinds of impressions, alright!
Jing Yichen saw her not reaching out to pick the package on the table. Lu Qing just got you a package. What did you buy?
Shangguan Ning looked up in bewilderment hearing the words. What package? I didnt buy anything.
Seeing her look at him, Jing Yichen immediately gave a kiss on her soft lips.
Then he picked up the package and opened it. The President is opening the package for you. Reward me.
Shangguan Ning ignored him. She hadnt asked him to open the package.
What was going on with this man? He was getting more and more clingy and wanted to be with her all the time.
She even suspected that even if Uncle hadnt introduced her to Jingsheng Enterprise, a man like Jing Yichen would have tried all he could, to get her to his side.
The moment Jing Yichen opened the package, the happy expression on his face disappeared immediately.
Chapter 203 - The Voice Recorder’s Secret
Chapter 203: The Voice Recorders Secret
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yichens held a voice recorder in his hands, and it was the style which he was very familiar with C the special voice recorder of Family Jing.
Seeing that he looked a bit weird, Shangguan Ning asked, What is it?
It is from Jing Yiran. Jing Yichen sounded very cold. The gentleness from his face was gone.
Shangguan Ning was very surprised. She looked at the delivery box and found that there was no senders information avable.
Jing Yichen pressed the y button of the recorder and the voices of a man and a woman could be heard.
What do you want me to do? To kill them both?
No, just the woman. The man must stay alive and he mustnt be hurt.
That is not easy. They are in the same car and if anything happens to the car, the people inside cant escape from being hurt. Your price isnt high enough to make the ident look unsuspicious. You better poison that woman with a pill. Thatll save you a lot of trouble.
That wont work. People would find out that she has been poisoned and I will not be able to get away with it. Car idents are the best method. I can give you more money if you want. The woman doesnt need to die, but at least cripple her. No harm should be done to the man, or I wont pay you a penny.
That wont work. I dont do anything without payment. You little girl, are just too young to trick an experienced gangster like me. I need some incentive to do what I am going to do.
How much do you want?
No money needed. Sleep with me for two days and no money is needed. Sounds reasonable?
The voice recorder stopped here. It didnt seem to be the end, but had ended anyway.
Although the voice had slightly changed, yet Jing Yichen could still tell who the people in conversation were. But the contents of the dialogue made him frown.
He turned to look at Shangguan Ning beside him. She had turned white like a piece of paper and her eyes were red as if she were trying to hold back her emotions with great effort.
What is wrong, Ning?
Jing Yichen immediately took her into his arms and held her soft but freezing hands in his own.
His warmth calmed down Shangguan Nings agitated heart after a while. She spoke through clenched teeth, Shangguan Rouxue is the woman who is speaking in the recorder.
Jing Yichen nodded and said, I know!
He even knew that the males voice belonged to ck Wind, whom he was trying to find desperately.
Although they sounded much younger than they did now, yet Jing Yichen, could easily figure it out.
The woman she put out the kill order for, was me.
Shangguan Ning shivered. She was not frightened. She was simply furious.
Jing Yichen kept her in his arms and patted her back softly. It is okay, Ning. All is in the past, and that woman has nothing now. Things will get worse for her, I promise.
He sounded determined, whichforted Shangguan Nings agonizing heart. She opened her mouth and recounted the incident from the past in a slightly hoarse voice.
I got to know Xie Zhuojun when I was young, but we didnt know each other well. We only greeted each other courteously whenever we ran into each other. We got to know each other better when we attended the same university in the neighboring city. During holidays, he drove me back to A City. He would dropped me home before going back to his own. He was the most popr guy in the campus whilst I was just an ordinary girl. Many people thought that I was his girlfriend when they saw me in the car. But as a matter of fact, we barely talked. He just gave me a lift home when I couldnt get tickets to go home.
Xie Zhuojun had a high standard regarding girls, so he didnt fall for me. He barely spoke with me either. But he was a gentleman so he treated everyone nicely. Whenever he talked with me on those few asions, he was friendly. Therefore, more and more people started to suspect our rtionship, including Shangguan Rouxue, who seemed to have the deepest misconception about us.
She told me enough times that my boyfriend was very nice to me etc. I never liked her, so I only told her once that there was nothing going on between Xie Zhuojun and me. I ignored her when she asked me again. I was too young to think much back then and didnt expect that Shangguan Rouxue had already fallen for Xie Zhuojun. As far as I knew, they had never met each other.
While Xie Zhuojun and I attended the same university, Shangguan Rouxue was attending a better university because of her grades. During the holidays, she attended different supplementary courses so whenever Xie Zhuojun gave me a lift home, she wasnt there. That was why I thought that they didnt know each other. But as a matter of fact, Shangguan Rouxue had gotten to know Xie Zhuojun long time ago and she thought that Xie Zhuojun liked me. That was why she nned a car ident to kill me.
I was badly frightened by the car ident. I didnt dare to travel by car for a long time. But at the time of the ident, I had only got some scratches and was able to get off the bed within a few days. But Xie Zhuojun, whom she loved so deeply, fell into aa and became a vegetative man. I always thought that it was truly a car ident. I never expected that it was purposefully done by someone. She is so vicious. She had barely reached the age of 20 and she already wanted to kill me. I am lucky to still be alive after spending decades with her under the same roof.
Hehe, if Xie Zhuojun ever gets to know that Shangguan Rouxue had nned the car ident, I wonder if he would kill the woman whom he has loved for so long. He has a clot in the brain and needs to go through a very risky operation. All of this is because of Shangguan Rouxue. If their family ever hears this conversation, I am sure that they will get so excited that they will faint.
She had been sitting in the back seat that day, because she didnt want to sit next to Xie Zhuojun to avoid gossip. When the car crashed because of the failed brakes, she managed to survive because of this reason.
Had she liked Xie Zhuojun at that time, she would have been sitting on the passenger seat and turned up like Xie Zhuojun post the ident.
Lucky that she hadnt like Xie Zhuojun.
Shangguan Nings phone rang as she was immersed in her past.
She picked it up and found that it was from a stranger.
Jing Yichen who was still holding her in arms, said coldly, Ning, pick it up and turn on the speaker. It is Jing Yiran! He has sent you a huge present and wants the reward now.
Shangguan Ning picked up the phone and turned on the speaker.
Beauty, have you got my present? Like it? Sigh, I have just got too many messy recordings here and it takes me hours to decipher them and to learn the secrets!
Where is ck Wind? Jing Yichen asked with a cold voice before Shangguan Ning could say anything.
Chapter 204 - Black Wind Was Caught!
Chapter 204: ck Wind Was Caught!
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Hearing Jing Yichens voice, Jing Yiran was startled. Then he said in a provocative tone, Arent you extremely capable? Go and find him yourself. Now I dont want to talk with you, give the phone to the Beauty.
Jing Yichen didnt need to ask Shangguan Ning for her opinion before hanging up the phone, making Jing Yiran get so angry that his chest heaved up and down.
Shangguan Ning didnt think that there was anything to talk about with Jing Yiran either, because he yed fair. A big price had to be paid if any information was to be gained from him. Also, that he posted the recorder at this stage, meant that he wanted something in return.
Jing Yichen hung up the phone and held his woman tightly. He said in a bossy tone. If he ever calls up again, dont answer him unless I am with you, and dont meet him alone.
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. For some reason, she liked it when he was being bossy. Her mood which had been affected because of the recorder, was lifted up by his words.
She held onto Jing Yichens neck and nted a kiss on his handsome face.
Jing Yichens eyes turned warm post the kiss. He said lightly, One more, please.
Shangguan Ning flushed, but still kissed him one more time.
Finding his little wife so obedient, Jing Yichen was feeling quite satisfied. He pinched Shangguan Nings dainty chin softly and spoke firmly, You dont need to worry about anything with me by your side. Just concentrate on having an affair with me.
Shangguan Ning liked it very much when Jing Yichen held her securely in his arms. She was feeling really happy at the moment. It made her forget about what happened in the past. Instead, she said with a slight smile, Arent we married already? What is the point of having an affair?
We got married first before having an affair. It is just a matter of order. But that makes it possible for us to have a longer rtionship so that you can be the little woman in a heated love rtionship.
Jing Yichen looked at her indulgently. He had not nned to marry Shangguan Ning so quickly. He had wanted her to experience the love first and everything that ordinary couples did before hosting a grand wedding for her.
But he was scared that he would lose her, so he had secured her to his side and then cultivated the rtionship with her little by little.
Leaning in his broad, warm arms, Shangguan Ning felt that she had really became a spoiled woman. She had been all alone since she was young and was an independent and strong woman. Whatever happened, she would just cry for a bit and then solve the issues with her own abilities.
But after she got together with Jing Yichen, it seemed that she was getting further and further away from her goal of bing a determined, intimidating and proud woman.
Because Jing Yichen often said, You dont need to do anything, I am here. What you need to do is to look pretty and I will take care of the rest.
This beautiful life pleased Shangguan Ning. The unhappiness and hatred inside her heart had already been washed away by this wonderful feeling sometime ago.
That night, Xie Zhuojun received a package. When he opened the courier and heard what was inside, he fainted.
Couple Xie also heard what was inside the recorder. They got so angry that they wanted to tear Shangguan Rouxue apart.
At this moment, someone came over from Family Yang.
They invited Xie Zhuojun and Shangguan Rouxue to attend the family dinner at Family Yang.
For Family Xie, Family Yang could not be offended so easily. But what Shangguan Rouxue had done annoyed Family Xie so much that they refused to allow her to attend.
Therefore, Wang Lu turned down Family Yangs invitation with a stiff smile, iming that Shangguan Rouxue was pregnant and not fit to go out.
Unexpectedly, however, Family Yang didnt take them seriously. They sent people to the vi and took Shangguan Rouxue away.
If Shangguan Rouxue had been home, Wang Lu might not have been able to control her anger and choke Shangguan Rouxue to death.
They had never expected that the car ident had been designed by Shangguan Rouxue. She had almost killed Xie Zhuojun who eventually fell in love with this vicious woman and married her. And now, she was pregnant with his baby.
Wang Lu was going crazy with anger. She didnt calm down until she held her son and cried loudly for sometime.
It was good that Shangguan Rouxue was away. They could deal with her when Xie Zhuojun finished his operation. Their sons illness was the most important thing of all.
Xie Zhuojuns head ached more and more frequently and on a few asions, he felt blinded because of the dizziness. Couple Xie hurried the procedures for overseas trips and took their son abroad for treatment.
Jing Yichen got the message about Family Xies trip abroad the moment it happened. He even got to know that Shangguan Rouxue had been taken away by Family Yang.
A ruthless smile emerged on his lips.
Just wait and see C You two are not going to be separated for too long, and are going to spend the rest of your lives in agony.
Anyone who extended his hand towards hurting his woman was not going to have an easy life.
Sitting in his spacious study, Jing Yichen took out the phone and called Tiger. After giving him a few instructions, he hung up.
But before he could enter the bedroom, the phone in his pocket rang again.
Jing Yichen picked up the phone and an excited and happy voice came from the other side of the phone. Master Jing, good news! ck Wind has been found.
Jing Yichens ck eyes narrowed and his expressions changed immediately. He instructed coldly, Keep him alive. I will be there soon.
In an isted and windowless room, Jing Yichen walked in with a sleepy looking Mu Qing.
ck Wind had be skinny and emancipatedpared tost time they had met him. He had wounds on his body which were not fatal but enough to crush someones willpower.
Apparently, that was Jing Yirans usual method.
Jing Yichen had brought Mu Qing here, for one specific reason. He wanted to make sure that the interrogation went fast and also, he wanted to prevent ck Wind from dropping dead in the middle of the conversation.
Tiger and Zheng Jing were both in the room. They stood up and greeted him when they saw himing.
Master!
Master Jing!
Zheng Jing was a tall man with a medium built. He had a square and a handsome face. His nose bride was straight and high and his eyebrows made him look quite serious and his bronze-color skin made him look strict. There was a vigorous air around him and despite a simple grey suit made him look exactly like the policeman from the movies.
Zheng Jing had been responsible of searching for ck Wind and he had done an excellent job.
Chapter 205 - Huang Liyu’s Death
Chapter 205: Huang Liyus Death
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Where did you find him? Jing Yichen didnt seem so eager to start the interrogation. Instead, he was more interested to know where ck Wind had been hiding during the past half year.
Zheng Jing replied instantly, In a private vi of your Old Lady, No.7 Garden Vi.
Jing Yichen frowned slightly. No wonder they had failed to find ck Wind. He had been brought back to Family Jing by Jing Yiran!!
No.7 Garden Vi was Mo Lans private property, a present received at her engagement with Jing Tianyuan years back. It was very close to Family Jings vis and a safe ce. The Old Lady often inviteddies from political and business field for gathering there and some important banquets of Family Jing were also held there. There wouldnt have been any problem if Jing Yiran walked in and out of that ce. That was why Jing Yichen didnt pay attention to that spot.
Jing Yiran was extremely bold to have hidden ck Wind right beneath his eyes. This dangerous man had been hidden nowhere other than at a ce close to the Old Lady!
The most dangerous ce was the safest ce. Maybe Jing Yiran was gradually taking over many properties of Family Jing.
He looked frivolous and nonchnt, but, he had been eyeing the inheritance of the Family for a long time and had made many preparations for that.
He wanted to change his identity and to control the entire family.
Jing Yichen put away Jing Yirans matters aside for the moment and asked Zheng Jing and Mu Qing to start the interrogation.
However, an hour had passed and the interrogation of ck Wind was not going smoothly.
The people involved were all skilled at interrogation, especially Zheng Jing who was a professional armed policeman and had a rich experience with interrogation. With extra help from Mu Qing as the doctor, the result should have been achieved quickly.
But it seemed that ck Wind had been specially trained. He simply refused to say anything.
Jing Yichen observed him for a while and ignored the bloody and cruel interrogation. Instead, he said to Tiger calmly, Bring Shangguan Rouxue from Family Yang here!
Everyone was surprised to notice that ck Wind, who had been totally silent towards any sort of cruel punishment, shivered slightly when he heard Jing Yichens words.
Half an hourter, an unconscious Shangguan Rouxue was carried in by Tiger C he had wanted to drag in the woman but Jing Yichen had stressed that Shangguan Rouxues child must be kept safe, so he had to get her here with a slightly gentler method.
ck Wind, who was on the verge of dying, said the first words after he was caught, when he saw Shangguan Rouxue. Let her go, I will tell you everything.
Jing Yichen had been tricked by ck Wind once, and hence didnt trust him.
He said coldly, Tiger, wake her up with water.
Tiger nodded and poured a bucket of cold water on Shangguan Rouxue, immediately.
Shangguan Rouxue woke up with a jerk. She almost passed out when she saw where she was and who all were there.
Mu Qing quickly put two silver needles somewhere upon the back of her head and Shangguan Rouxue screamed in pain but she didnt faint, even after trying for it.
ck Wind bellowed instantly, Leave her alone. I did everything. She had nothing to do with it. I will tell you anything you want to know.
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing exchanged a look of surprise. Apparently, they had never expected that this woman was ck Winds weakness.
Shangguan Rouxue had no idea how she got here, but she was a smart woman. The moment she saw ck Wind who had been missing for half a year, she understood clearly why Jing Yichen had got her here.
She ignored ck Winds life threatening situation and screamed. Yes, yes, he did everything. It has nothing to do with me. Master Jing, you have misunderstood me. I have done nothing, please let me go.
Jing Yichen frowned in disgust. His long-term follower Tiger naturally understood what he was disgusted about, so he gagged Shangguan Rouxue immediately.
Shangguan Rouxues face paled in fright. She whined in fear.
Speak now! The more you speak, the less pain she would need to suffer, or she will die with you right here today. Tell us everything, and she wont need to die and can go back to being Mrs. Xie.
ck Winds psychological defending line was broken. The interrogation suddenly became very easy.
He confessed to everything which Shangguan Rouxue and Yang Wenshu had asked him to do, which frightened and astonished Mu Qing and Zheng Jing.
The mother and daughter were so cruel. Shangguan Ning must have been very lucky to still be alive today. There wasnt any other exnation.
Finally, Jing Yichen asked in a distant and cold tone, How did Huang Liyu die?
ck Wind stayed silent for a moment and then spoke in a hoarse voice, Yang Wenshu and I caused her death. It has nothing to do with Shangguan Rouxue. She was only ten years old back then and knew nothing.
Yang Wenshu wanted to marry Shangguan Zheng, but Shangguan Zheng didnt want to divorce Huang Liyu. He said that till Huang Lihu was alive, he would never marry her. So Yang Wenshu came to me and made me force Huang Liyu to die. Huang Liyu didnt agree initially, because she loved her daughter and her husband way too deeply. She only agreed to divorce Shangguan Zheng and allowed Yang Wenshu to marry him and asked me to spare her life. Yang Wenshu was worried that she wouldnt have a proper position in Shangguan Zhengs heart, so she didnt want Huang Liyu to live.
In order to keep herself safe from being med for the death of Huang Liyu, Yang Wenshu and I threatened her with Huang Liyus daughter Shangguan Ning. We told her that if she didnt kill herself, I would kill Shangguan Ning. That was why she chose to kill herself. Also, Yang Wenshu wanted to create a terrible impression in Shangguan Nings heart, so she demanded that Huang Liyu should die in front of her own daughter, or she would sell Shangguan Ning to human traffickers after her mothers death.
Huang Liyus death was confirmed as suicide by the police, because they couldnt find any other evidence to prove that she was killed. Shangguan Zheng felt that Huang Liyu killed herself out of a non usible reason, but he was scared that her death would ruin his position as an officer, so he turned a blind eye to it and left that matter alone.
Later, Yang Wenshu thought that Shangguan Ning was very annoying, so she tried to drug her with sub- chronic poison. But Shangguan Ning had a habit of keeping stray cats and dogs with her and she would share her food with the animals. As a result, hardly any of that poison got into her. But those animals died one after another because of the poison. Shangguan Ning didnt understand the reason for it because she was too young, but she told her uncle Huang Lihan many times about that tearfully. Huang Lihan must have found it strange, so he took her away from Family Shangguan and kept her by his side for a long time.

So I didnt do anything during that period. We wanted to do something to her when she returned home. But she had already be cautious and suspected that Yang Wenshu had a hand in Huang Liyus death. She even argued with Shangguan Zheng many times about it. Yang Wenshu was afraid that Shangguan Nings death would have exposed the matter, so I didnt do anything more to her.
Mu Qing drew in a deep breath after ck Winds words.
He didnt expect that Shangguan Nings life had been so twisted and terrible, and her childhood had been full of darkness. She had witnessed her mother killing herself in front of her at the age of ten and the murderer had been the person who lived with her. If she had not been kind enough to feed the stray cats and dogs, she would have been dead ages ago.
No wonder Jing Yichen wanted to punish Yang Wenshu so badly. He had suspected her since long.
Jing Yichen listened to ck Wind with no expression on his face. But his heart was torn apart into pieces, causing suffocating pain.
His wife, Ning had been treated so badly by these scumbags. But she was still a sunny, happy woman who loved life and was still kind enough to feed the stray cats and dogs. She was pure and had never been polluted by their filthiness.
All of a sudden, he started to miss her. He wanted to scoop her into his arms and to kiss her and take away all her pain.
He stood up and said Cresume tomorrow. Then he strode out of the room.
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing couldnt help but exchange a look with each other when they saw him walking away anxiously. They were very surprised.
They had never seen Jing Yichen panicking before this.
Jing Yichen drove his Aston Martin at the maximum speed and reached home within ten minutes.
He opened the bedroom door and saw Shangguan Ning huddled on the bed. She was frowning in her sleep.
Jing Yichen took off his overcoat and made his way inside the nket. Then he took her into his arms, gently.
Shangguan Ning was not in a deep sleep, so she woke up as soon as he touched her.
She opened her drowsy eyes and caught sight of him. She snuggled into his arms and found afortable spot. Then she mumbled in azy voice, Where did you go sote at night? I couldnt sleep well while you werent with me...
Jing Yichen kissed her forehead and offered an arm to her as the pillow. Then he took hold of her slender waist and said gently, I went out toplete an errand. I will always be by your side and sleep with you.
Shangguan Ning mumbled again, I like it when you let me to sleep in your arms. It feels safe...
Jing Yichens eyes were filled with tears because of what she said. He replied You will always be safe with me beside you for the rest of your life...
Shangguan Ning smiled upon hearing his words. Then she went back to sleeping.
It was Saturday the following day, and what surprised Shangguan Ning was that the President, who worked even on the weekends, was still asleep!
The morning sunlight shone into the bedroom through the light blue curtains, casting the gleam upon Jing Yichens perfect features.
Shangguan Ningy in his armsfortably. Seeing him fast asleep right in front of her eyes, she moved her fingers to draw a silhouette upon his face gently. As soon as her fingers touched his sexy lips, her heart skipped a bit and she gave him a sneaky kiss.
However, the moment she finished, she heard a low and sexy voice speaking, My Princess, are you trying to wake up your prince in this manner?
Startled by him, Shangguan Ning reacted as if she had just been caughtmitting a crime. I am a Queen and I can kiss whenever I want to.
Jing Yichen chuckled. He opened his eyes and patted her messy hair. Speaking in an indulgent tone, he said, Okay, okay, Queen, I am your most royal ride. Now you cane and ride me.
Shangguan Ning got embarrassed. She pinched hard on his waist and spoke in an unfriendly manner after hearing his exaggerated cry of pain, Nonsense! So early in the morning. You will get no breakfast.
Jing Yichen turned himself around and pressed her under him as he said in a flirty tone, It is okay. I dont want breakfast. I want to eat you!
No, I ... am not yet done with my period. Get up and eat breakfast, Shangguan Ning got defeated.
Jing Yichen squinted and said calmly, My Queen, do you know that this lie can easily be exposed. We can check right now if you are done with your period, cant we?
He said as he started to reach for the bottom of her dress.
He massaged and touched her, bringing a shiver to her body. In no time, her tenderly white skin had turned rosy, looking extremely tempting.
Baby, why are you still so shy? You have made me lose my self-control totally...
...
Fun and loving sounds filled up the room, heating the morning air and making the Sun be shy and red.
Jing Yichens heart softened at the sight of the woman in his arms who was huddled there like a kitten. Her face was rosy and her eyshes trembled slightly. He picked her up from the bed and walked into the bathroom, naked.
It was almost ten oclock when Shangguan Ning finished with him and sat down to eat breakfast.
She was tired. She almost couldnt find the energy to even pick up the chopsticks.
Jing Yichen brought her on his thighs, lifted the bowl and the spoon to her mouth and said happily, I can feed you if you are too tired. Open your mouth,e on.
Shangguan Ning red at him.
I will eat it myself!
Come on, open your mouth.
.....
Dont want it? Does this mean that you want me to eat you, again?
Shangguan Ning surrendered instantly. I will eat. Feed me now!
Post breakfast, Shangguan Ning nearly suffered from indigestion due to Jing Yichens antics.
After breakfast, Jing Yichen took hold of Shangguan Nings soft hand and led her to the study. Seeing her look happy, he suddenly had no idea how to tell her the truth about Huang Liyu.
When she saw him silent and serious, Shangguan Ning couldnt help but ask, What is wrong? What happened?
She knew Jing Yichen well and knew that he didnt usually hesitate. She started to feel uneasy.
Jing Yichen drew in a deep breath and decided to tell his wife the truth. She had waited and searched for the truth for so long now. She had the right to know all about that matter. She was not a fragile woman, and wouldnt copse however cruel the truth was. Besides, he was right next to her.
Ning, I have found the murderer who caused your mothers suicide.
Chapter 207 - Assassinated (Part One)
Chapter 207: Assassinated (Part One)
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning shivered. She turned pale and tears filled her eyes.
Jing Yichens heart ached. He took her into his arms and patted her back softly to console her.
After a short while, he heard her speaking in a stable and firm tone, Who is it, Yichen? I want him to suffer.
She, who had never witnessed or experienced massacre was able to adjust herself within such a short period so that she didnt get immersed in the grief for long. Should he be sad or happy?
I got the man and I have a recording of his confession. Do you want to see the man or hear the record? There was more than one murderer.
I want to see the man, Shangguan Ning spoke firmly. A touch of fierceness shed across her eyes.
This was the Shangguan Ning whom Jing Yichen had never met before. She was extraordinarily strong in willpower and exceptionally determined. But that made his heart ache even more C she must have got this outstanding willpower because she had experienced grief and despair.
She was the daughter of a Deputy-Mayor and should have lived a cozy and happy life rather than being involved in all this.
Jing Yichen hadnt wanted her to meet ck Wind, because he was afraid that Shangguan Ning would be even sadder after meeting him. But he wanted to respect her decision and left the choice to her rather than influence it.
Shangguan Ning chose to meet that man without hesitation and Jing Yichen felt very proud to have such a brave wife.
He kissed his wifes forehead and said softly, Lets go, I will take you to meet that man.
In apletely isted room, Shangguan Ning listened to ck Wind narrating the past that was full of blood and cruelty, with a pale face.
Yang Wenshu made all this happen. After Shangguan Rouxue was born, she had been nning to rece your mother so as to move into the luxurious vi with her daughter. Shangguan Zheng had known Yang Wenshu before marrying your mother, but at that time she was of no value. That was why your mother managed to marry into Family Shangguan. But Yang Wenshu didnt want to ept the truth, so she tried all she could to kill your mother and to rece her. It was her idea to make you mother die in front of you.
Shangguan Nings fingers were tightly clenched together. The force made her knuckles go white.
Her mother had died for no fault of her own. She had protected her, her young daughter. Her love had been immense for her child.
So my mother didnt kill herself? Shangguan Ning realized that her voice was extremely hoarse when she spoke.
No.
She was forced to die because of you and Yang Wenshu? She was asking the same thing as if to confirm it. Tears had already gushed out of her eyes and her heart ached indescribably. She had no other way to vent the emotions.
Yes.
Was Shangguan Zheng involved with this matter?
ck Wind remained silent for a moment and said, No. But he must have guessed what happened, otherwise he would not have got scared of Yang Wenshu. He must have sensed her viciousness, that was why...
Before he could finish his words, Shangguan Ning walked up to him, snatched up the knife which had been kept for the interrogation and stabbed it into ck Winds shoulder des, without hesitation.
ck Wind let out a cry of pain. He had already been at the edge of death and passed outpletely at this moment.
Shangguan Ning didnt stab him in heart. Instead, she stabbed his shoulder des which would cause him tremendous pain. She didnt want ck Wind to die. She wanted him to live and to pay back for her mothers death.
She stabbed him once again, not caring that ck Wind had already passed out. He shivered slightly because of the pain.
As for Yang Wenshu, she wanted to stab her until she waspletely mutted and suffered dreadfully.
Death was the lightest punishment for them. She wanted them to live and then lose the thing they cared most about so that they could fall into despair until they got so tormented and decided to kill themselves instead.
She sudenly realised that her mother had notmitted suicide out of her free will or because she wanted to abandon her. That made Shangguan Ning suddenly felt slightly less heavy in her heart.
She had finally found the killer and punished the culprit. Her mothers soul in Heaven could finally be consoled. She could finally kneel down in front of her mothers grave and tell her that she had extracted the revenge for her.
Now, Shangguan Ning felt empty. She leaned upon Jing Yichens chest and said lightly, Thank you, Yichen. Today is the brightest day since I was ten years old.
Jing Yichen took her in his arms and said in an unusually gentle tone, Silly girl. We are husband and wife, and your bright day is my bright day too. I can do anything for you, as long as you are happy and well!
He brought Shangguan Ning out of the dimly lit room and the warm sunlight dazzled on them as if it was lighting up Shangguan Nings entire life.
Now, what do you n to do with Yang Wenshu? Should I offer my help?
Shangguan Ning looked up and a touch of coldness shed across the face. Leave her to me. I will send her into hell with my own hands!
Jing Yichen held her skinny shoulders and replied, Okay!
He had not touched Yang Wenshu and allowed her to live, because he wanted to give her to Shangguan Ning who was going to take revenge for her mother so that she could vent her grief and anger somehow.
Seeing that Shangguan Ning became a bit better after stabbing ck Wind, Jing Yichen held her hands and walked towards the parking ce.
However, they had just reached the car and not yet opened the door when Jing Yichen immediately felt a tingling sensation at the back of his neck.
He was a man who had been involved in many near death situations and was attuned towards the uing danger. He stood right in front of Shangguan Ning before the bullet hit her.
He was thinking about nothing. There was only one thing going on his functioning brain C Nothing must happen to Shangguan Ning. He didnt want her to get hurt.
The bullet ripped through Jing Yichens shirt with a loud swishing sound, ripping off his muscle and digging right into his chest.
Large amount of blood gushed out of him, soaking his shirt and sttering blood over Shangguan Nings face. He started to lose consciousness and fell backwards.
Before the darkness came to him, what he could hear was Shangguan Nings shrill scream. Yichen!
Chapter 208 - Assassinated (Part Two)
Chapter 208: Assassinated (Part Two)
At Family Mus Hospital, Shangguan Ning waited outside the emergency room with a pale face. Her beautiful, bright eyes seemed to be totally lifeless and dull. There were traces of Yichens blood still visible on her face. On her light purple dress, there were flowers everywhere that had been made by Jing Yichens blood.
His blood felt hot, burning her heart and stinging her eyes, suffocating her.
She couldnt describe the feeling when he had stood between her and the bullet.
There was a man in this world who could love her so much without caring about his own life that he would face death so boldly. He had turned around and kept her safe till he copsed in case if another bullet came afterwards, exposing his own back to the killer.
His tall figure looked so calm as if the bullet had not hit him.
Shangguan Ning would have preferred that the bullet hit her instead of him and that she was the injured one.
He didnt want her to get injured, but she didnt want him to get injured too.
The emergency light in the operating room was still on. There were many people inside.
Shangguan Ning was panicking from within. She had not felt like this since she had lost her mother.
He had bled so much, just like her mother did. Her mothers blood had dyed her clothes and the floor until she had no blood left inside any longer. She had left her. Would Jing Yichen do the same?
She didnt dare to think any further.
If she lost him, she would follow his footsteps.
Tiger and Lee Duo stood by Shangguan Nings side respectively. Both of them felt bad seeing her grieve like this. They had been by Jing Yichens side for so long, through life and death. They had been treated as brothers by Jing Yichen and enjoyed a deep friendship with each other. Their hearts also ached for Jing Yichen and they wanted to grab hold of the shooter and kill him.
They were in charge of Jing Yichen and Shangguan Nings safety, but Master had been attacked fatally. If they had been a bit closer and reacted a bit faster, Master might not have been shot. They would have preferred that the bullet hit them.
What awaited them would be very strict punishment from Family Jing, but they didnt dare to keep it to themselves, so they informed Jing Zhongxiu the moment Master was shot. Jing Zhongxiu was Masters father and the controller of Family Jing at the moment. He must be the first one to be informed when Master was in fatal danger.
Also, only he had the ability of finding out the killer who had apparently aimed at the Lady. He would make another attempt because he had failed the first time. He must be found quickly, or the Lady would continue to be in a dangerous situation as well.
Jing Zhongxiu arrived quickly. The moment he entered the hospital, he walked towards the emergency room.
His heart had started to palpitate when he heard Jing Yichen had been attacked. He put down whatever he was doing and started to organize the team to find out the killer whilst reaching the hospital as fast as he could.
He was furious. Suddenly, he lookedpletely different from his usual introverted self.
Who was that?
Who was it that dared to touch his son, his beloved elder son?
Shangguan Ning didnt notice when Jing Zhongxiu arrived. Her eyes and heart was stuck to the emergency room.
Tiger and Lee Duo saw him first. They both kneeled down in front of him and said, Lord, we failed to keep Master safe, please punish us!
Jing Zhongxiu looked cold. His voice sounded as cold as the ice in winter. Get up now. You will be punished when Master is awake.
He said it with conviction that Master would wake up. It was as if he was certain that his son would be fine.
Only now did Shangguan Ning look up at Jing Zhongxiu and said feebly. Father, you are here...
Jing Zhongxius heart ached at the sight of her. But he nodded without saying anything and strode towards the emergency room. He came out of the room after a while, looking serious.
He sat down next to Shangguan Ning and spoke softly, Ning, I just went in there and checked. Dont worry, Yichen will be fine!
His calm tone brought hope to Shangguan Ning. She looked at him through her swollen eyes. Really, father? Yichen will be fine?
Jing Zhongxiu patted her shoulders softly and said, Yes, he will be fine. Otherwise Mu Qings grandfather, Mu Wensheng would have been the one inside the operating theatre right now. Although he doesnt seem to bepletely stable, at least we can see that Mu Qing is being able to control the situation. You may not know this, but he has been spared by death many times, and alwayses back. So he will make it this time too, I am sure!
Shangguan Nings heart ached as if being ripped by numerous des. He had been spared by death many times? He had been confronted by death many times?
But he had never mentioned anything to her.
She spoke in a hoarse voiceden with guilt, Father, today he is injured because of me. The bullet was meant for me but he came and stood in-between. I wish that the bullet had hit me instead so that he didnt have to get injured...
He is a man and if he had withdrawn at that moment, then he wont be the heir of Family Jing. Ning, dont think too much, go and sleep in the room next door and when you wake up, Yichen will wake up too.
No, father, I want to wait for him right here. I dont want to leave him! Shangguan Ning objected instantly, looking very determined.
Jing Zhongxiu had no choice but to allow her to wait in the corridor.
He stood up and told Tiger and Lee Duo, It is not safe here till the time the killer isnt found. Make sure thedy is fine. If anything happens to her, you will not live either. Dont let anyone know about Jing Yichens condition, especially the olddy and the old lord.
Tiger and Lee Duo nodded in unison. Then they resumed their positions next to Shangguan Ning, guarding her.
Jing Zhongxiu looked at Shangguan Ning who was covered in blood, onest time, then he walked out of the hospital without looking back.
He wasnt going to forgive anyone who had dared to hurt his son.
Had he, Jing Zhongxiu, been forgotten in A City because he had stayed calm for so long?
Chapter 209 - Out of Danger
Chapter 209: Out of Danger
Jing Yiran saw some strange and some familiar facesing in and out of the house one after another. He also saw the door of the study on the second floor getting opened and closed. The scenes were going on from evening to night and then from night to daylight.
After Jing Yichen was shot, Jing Zhongxiu started to flex his power. Apart from the hospital visit, he spent the remaining time in the study. Many people kepting in and out of that room.
Jing Yiran had met and heard of some of them earlier. But few were absolute strangers to him.
But these people looked powerful and sharp. It could easily be discerned that these were some moguls from different fields.
Amongst them, one woman left a deep impression on him.
It was not only because she was the only woman visitor, or because she was extremely good-looking, but because she had a pair of startling eyes. Looking into those, he felt as if he had looked at death.
Cold sweat trickled down Jing Yiran. He immediately understood who she was.
She must be the top professional Killer Angel, most wanted in the world. She upied the second rank in the Global Killer List and the only woman in the Top 10!
She never missed a bullet and she didnt have any bottom-line for morality. It was said that even her parents were killed by her and she had just been fourteen years old at the time.
She was a killing machine who didnt possess any emotions. She was able toplete the mission without being affected, no matter how difficult the mission was.
Someone said that she was mentally disturbed, perfectly suited to be a killer.
But the woman Jing Yiran met today didnt seem to be mentally disturbed at all. He didnt know her real face. Rumor said that she was extremely beautiful and it must have been true.
So even the killer at rank 2 was here! Jing Yiran couldnt imagine who the rest of those visitors were and were not known to him! It seemed that Jing Zhongxiu was totally pissed because Jing Yichen was injured.
He always knew that the most powerful man at this family or even in the entire A City was not the old lord Jing Tianyuan. Nor was he the mysterious or distant Jing Yichen. It was his father Jing Zhongxiu, who looked mild and did nothing except for fishing and ying chess every single day.
He was an extremely powerful man who possessed a lot of power in his hands. He was also a man who was very responsible. He always bore the burden, no matter how much he hated or detested it.
Jing Yiran clearly understood that the reason why he was still alive was because Jing Zhongxiu had been defending him all this while.
His rtionship with Jing Zhongxiu was quiteplicated. He admired and worshipped him, but felt distant and fearful of him. What was more, he hated him as well.
Because in Jing Zhongxius heart, Jing Yichen was always his only son. Even the name of Jing Yiran had been given by the olddy rather than him.
How pathetic it must have been for not being even named by his own father. His father had never hugged him or asked him about anything after he was born. He barely even scolded or beat him C he only scolded Jing Yichen.
When the studys door opened again, Jing Zhongxiu walked out. He had been in there the entire night.
He hadnt slept the entire night, but was still dressed well and looked formidable and distant. The face that resembled Jing Yichen so much, didnt show any emotion. But his eyes that were full of exhaustion and anger.
He walked downstairs and the Butler asked the servants toy out the breakfast so that he could eat after freshening up.
Jing Zhongxiu looked at Jing Yiran who was standing there and said calmly, Dont go out in the near future. If you must, take some more men with you.
Having said the words, he turned around and went to wash himself up before Jing Yiran could respond.
Seeing his tall figure, Jing Yiran didnt feel warmth in him. He answered in a low voice that could only be heard by himself. Yes, father.
...
At Family Mus Hospital, the light finally shut outside the emergency room.
It meant that the operation was finally over.
Shangguan Ning had been staring at the operation room throughout the night. She immediately stood up. She was dying to look at the man who had risked his own life for her.
She had spent the night worrying and ming herself. She was bracing herself for some bad news.
She had wanted to call out to him but was also worried that it would disturb the doctors concentration. So she had to stop herself from going any further and stood outside the room without moving an inch.
Seeing that operation was over, she wanted to hear the doctore out and tell her that he was fine.
But probably she had been in a position for too long so that her legs all got numb. She suddenly got up and nearly copsed.
Tiger and Lee Duo supported her and shouted at the same time. Watch out,dy!
Shangguan Ning adjusted herself and answered with a phrase CI am alright and then staggered towards the Emergency room, one step after another. Tiger and Lee Duo followed her behind. They didnt enter the room with her but stood outside the door as guards.
Shangguan Ning could smell blood and that broke her heart. That smell seemed to take her back to the moment when Jing Yichen was shot and when his warm blood had sttered over her face.
In the emergency room, Mu Qing was not the only one there. The top-notch surgeons of Family Mus Hospital were also there. Mu Qing gestured to the other surgeons that they should go out when he caught sight of her.
Shangguan Ning didnt have eyes for anyone else at this moment. She was totally focused upon the man on the operation table who was breathing feebly and looked pale.
She walked to his side and saw that the wound on his chest had been wrapped with gauze. Then she saw the bloody bullet that had been taken out of his chest and ced on the steel te. She burst into tears and took his cold hand into her own.
Mu Qing removed the mask and the white rubber gloves and patted Shangguan Nings back softly. He said to her in a most consoling tone, Dont cry, Sister. The bullet didnt hit on any critical ce. Master Jing is fine except that he has lost too much blood. But he should wake up by tomorrow. He needs you to take care of him, so dont tire yourself out.
What he said was quite useful.
Shangguan Ning wiped her tears and looked up with her swollen eyes. She saw Mu Qings tired eyes which must have been because of the intensive operation thatsted for the entire night and said gratefully, You have worked hard, Doctor Mu, thank you so much to have brought him back.
Chapter 210 - Are You Disappointed that He Is Alive?
Chapter 210: Are You Disappointed that He Is Alive?
A smile appeared upon Mu Qings exhausted face. You are being too courteous. I wont be able to face you if I cant get Master Jing back. Come, lets shift Master Jing to the ward.
Shangguan Ning nodded. Together with Mu Qing, she pushed Jing Yichen to the advanced ward where she had stayed during her illness.
Mu Qing told her about a few things that she needed to pay attention to before he left from there. He had been in the operating room for an entire night. Removing the bullet that had almost hit Jing Yichens heart, was a difficult operation. He was feeling exhausted and drained out. He needed to recuperate.
Before he left, he looked at Shangguan Ning who was in a mess but was still busy wiping Jing Yichens hands and face. All of a sudden, the scene where Jing Yichen had taken care of her during her illness, emerged in his head.
He had witnessed the love between them at that time. He realised their deep love for each other which was so intense that they forgot about themselves and only concentrated on the partner.
Mu Qing had a very strong feeling that if either of them were to ever lose their life, the other would not be able to stay alive for long.
It was such a touching rtionship.
He wasnt sure if he would find this kind of love and life partner.
A beautiful silhouette shed in his head but vanished immediately. It was impossible for him and her.
...
After freshening up, Jing Zhongxiu started to eat breakfast. At that moment, the Butler came running to him with a happy face. He had been in Family Jing for decades, and it was rare for him to behave so indiscreetly.
Lord, the news just came from the hospital. The bullet is out, Elder Master is out of the danger. He will wake up by tomorrow!
Jing Zhongxius hand that was holding the spoon, trembled. Then he let out a sigh of relief and said calmly, Okay, thanks for letting me know. Tell Tiger and Lee Duo to still stay vignt. They need to make sure that my son and daughter inw are safe. They dont need to try and catch the killer. Thedy was the target, so she is not allowed to go anywhere before the killer is caught. Tell her that I said that she must have the bullet-proof coat on her at all times.
He had asked Angelst night to help him identify the killer. Since they had very little information, all Angel could tell him was that the killer had been very professional and possessed extremely highprehensive quality. Therefore, if the killer failed once, he was going to attack till the time that the target was dead and mission was over.
Therefore, Shangguan Ning was still in a very dangerous situation. They needed to protect her carefully. His son had been injured. He couldnt let his daughter-inw get injured as well, no matter what!
The Butler bowed and left the room. He called up Tiger to pass on the Lords message.
Jing Yirans heart suddenly felt empty at the sight of his fathers relieved expression, as he sat opposite Jing Zhongxiu at breakfast time.
Who on earth was so bold as to hire a top-notch killer to kill the daughter-inw of Family Jing?
Jing Yiran didnt feel much when he had heard about Jing Yichen getting shot and being critical. When he heard about him being out of danger, an indescribable disappointment arose inside his heart!
He and Jing Yichen had been restrained by Jing Zhongxiu, so that they couldpete and fight but could not kill each other! He was not able to kill Jing Yichen with his own power, but this rare opportunity, which had arisen, just slipped away.
Jing Yichen was the heir of the Family whom everyone admired and feared.
Jing Yichen was also the son whom Jing Zhongxiu loved and had huge expectations of.
Even Jing Yiran knew that he didnt resemble his father, be it in his appearance or personality. It had always been Jing Yichen who was simr to Jing Zhongxiu, almost like a carbon copy.
Jing Yichen was like a shadow which he couldnt get rid of, throughout his entire life. Jing Yiran was never going to exceed him wherever he stood.
Are you disappointed that he is alive?
The cold and distant voice reached Jing Yirans ears, the words matching his thoughts. His finger trembled in fear and the chopsticks dropped on the floor.
He looked up into Jing Zhongxius cold and serious eyes.
Jing Yirans heart skipped a beat. He tried to calm himself down and said, No.
You wont get anything if he dies. Everything of Family Jing belongs to him. It is his destiny. I will give you whatever belongs to you, but dont ever get greedy about whatever that doesnt belong to you. You are not hard working and consistent, and you dont fight fairly. Therefore, the inheritance of Family Jing is definitely not going to be yours.
Jing Zhongxiu looked calm as if he were just talking about the weather. There was no change in his facial expressions.
But these words were like thunderstorms that attacked Jing Yiran. They seemed to crush his heart and lung!
Jing Zhongxou had said something simr before, but had never said it as clearly as he did now!
He was telling Jing Yiran that he must not take any impulsive step to hurt Jing Yichen during this time.
Jing Yiran looked down trying to hide the hatred and viciousness in his eyes. He suppressed the bitterness in his heart and tried to speak in a calm manner, Okay, I understand, father.
Jing Zhongxiu looked at him without saying anything else. Then he stood up and walked away.
Jing Yiran took two bites of his breakfast but then pushed away the te. He had lost his appetite.
He stood up and walked out of the vi towards the rtively smaller vi where he and Zhang Rong lived. The main vi was for Jing Zhongxiu.
In the small vi, Zhang Rong was also eating breakfast. She put down the spoon at the sight of her son and pulled him into the study.
Ran, is it true that your brother is dying? Tell me the truth, did you... She swallowed down thest remaining words. Anyone could understand what she meant to ask.
Jing Yiran couldnt believe that she would ask him such a question.
Even his father, Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichens men hadnt suspected that he did it. But his own mother suspected that he was the killer.
Jing Yiran was feeling pathetic in this moment.
Zhang Rongs exquisite but evil face was full of joy and her eyes twinkled. He suddenly understood why Jing Zhongxiu didnt allow Zhang Rong to share the food table with him.
Even if Zhang Rong didnt cause Zhao Qing to die, his father would not want to see such a face appearing in front of him so as to ruin his mood and appetite.
Seeing her own son staring at her with a mocking look, Zhang Rong became slightly displeased. What is wrong with you? I am asking you something, why are you staring at me like that?
Jing Yiran flung away Zhang Rongs hands from his own as he said coldly, Are you sure that you are my biological mother? Does any mother suspect that her own son is the killer? Which mother never asks her son if has eaten breakfast or slept well but wants to know if he has killed someone?
Chapter 211 - Shooting Again (Part One)
Chapter 211: Shooting Again (Part One)
Zhang Rong had no idea what was wrong in what she said, so she didnt know what to say when interrogated by her son in this way.
She had been so happy when she heard from Jing Zhongxiu about Jing Yichen getting shot and being in a critical state. She had thought that her son had made it happen.
Unexpectedly, her son was behaving in such a weird manner. What was the point of getting so pissed?
She got quite sad inside her heart and didnt speak until muchter, What do you mean by that? Of course I am your real mother and that is why I have been nning and plotting for your sake. Why do I need to care about your food and sleep when all the servants are there? I have been tolerating so much for many years just for your sake!
As soon as Jing Yichen dies, the entire family fortune will be yours. Isnt that what you always wanted? I wasnt capable enough to give birth to you before him, but I can still make it possible that you get what you deserve. But you always make me sad rather than caring about me and you even dare to interrogate me. How disappointing...
Tears dripped out of Zhang Rongs eyes, trickling down along her wrinkle free face. She looked really sad and most peoples hearts would break looking at her expression.
But Jing Yiran ignored herpletely. She always wore this kind of expression whenever people annoyed her or said something bad, just to show that she had been wronged.
She didnt want to give up the title of thedy of Family Jing. She felt that she deserved everything, the respect of the servants, the love of Jing Zhongxiu, the enormous amount of properties as well as the obedience of her son!
But what had she given up for it and what did she do to prove that she was worth it?
He had been fed by Mo Lan and the servants. Zhang Rong never wanted to hold him in her arms, fearing that he would crease her expensive dress or ruin her hairstyle that she had spent so much time on!
He had not been hugged by either of his parents.
What was the point of giving birth to him anyway?
Jing Yiran didnt want to stay at home for even a single moment. He turned around and started to walk out.
Zhang Rong cried out for him in tears, but he turned deaf ears to her wails. Instead, he got into his car and drove away from that disgusting ce.
For some reason, Jing Yiran involuntarily reached Family Mus Hospital.
He parked the car and strode inside.
The nurses at the Hospital instantly got attracted by his handsome face and the devious charisma. They stared at him, transfixed.
However, Jing Yiran had no interest in talking with them. Without saying a word, he walked straight into the ward.
It was very easy to find Jing Yichens ward, because it was fully guarded. No other patients were on the entire floor apart from the strong bodyguards at Family Jing.
When the bodyguards saw Second Master, they exchanged a confused look.
They knew pretty well that Elder Master and Second Master didnt get on well with each other and often fought. Of course, most of the time it was Second Master who almost died whilst Elder Master prevailed. Was Second Master here today to kill Elder Master in his sleep?
No one dared to let Jing Yiran in without permission. The lead guard stopped him forcefully. Second Master, I am sorry, but you cant go in.
Move away! Jing Yiran was in a very bad mood. He kicked at the bodyguards belly without thinking and was flung away by the guard in return.
That made everyone think that he was here for trouble, so they all gathered together.
Jing Yiran frowned and said calmly, Just get away from me. I am not here to cause trouble. My brother is hurt. Cant I juste to visit him as a brother?
Although he looked serious this time rather than sinister and unruly, yet none of the bodyguards believed him.
This was because Jing Yiran had never addressed Jing Yichen as brother and Jing Yichen had never epted him as his sibling. Their rtionship was so badly messed up that just by saying one word, it wouldnt drive the troubles away.
Jing Yiran wasnt here to visit Jing Yichen because he was worried. He wished that Jing Yichen should die as soon as possible!
But he was not going to fight today either, because Jing Zhongxiu had warned him and he wouldnt go against fathers intention.
He hade here because he wanted to see Shangguan Ning.
He didnt know why he wanted to see her. He always wanted to see her face whenever he was in a bad mood. Even though she mocked him ruthlessly or scolded him, he would always feel better and less dispirited.
Maybe that was because she had never tried to conceal her dislike towards him but spoken her true feelings.
Jing Yiran had no idea if he liked being bullied. But he knew that Shangguan Ning could bring him peace and quietness.
After getting to know that the killer might strike again, Jing Yiran had been feeling quite anxious. At first he had thought that he was just sorry that Jing Yichen wasnt killed but after he arrived at the hospital, he finally realized that he was worried about Shangguan Nings safety!
Several days ago he had delivered the recorder to Shangguan Ning because he wanted her to eat dinner with him as a reward so that he could lure her home by baiting her regarding information about Huang Liyu.
But he had failedpletely. The recorder had not acted as bait enough, instead ck Wind whom he had carefully imprisoned, was also caught by Jing Yichens men!
He had lost the biggest bargaining chip that could have attracted Shangguan Nings attention.
For now, he just wanted to see Shangguan Ning and to make sure that she was well. But these people who stood in front of him were causing annoyance.
Jing Yiran had no way out and started to feel dejected, Mu Qing appeared there.
The bodyguards immediately cleared the path for him to pass.
Jing Yiran followed behind but was stopped by them.
Mu Qing turned around and looked at him. He spoke after thinking for a moment, Let him in. He wont dare to do anything with me around.
No one had expected that Mu Qing would help him. Even Jing Yiran was startled.
Mu Qing was Jing Yichens man and had tormented him many times. But he didnt stop him this time and even wanted to help him.
Mu Qing smiled and said, You wont dare to kill him, that is why I am not worried. Also, my Sister might need to ask you something.
He said and turned around to walk into the ward.
Jing Yiran got startled for a moment and then followed in, frowning.
It was unusually quiet in the ward. The sound of the door opening woke Shangguan Ning up. She had been lying sideways on the bed. She had not slept in the past twenty four hours. Her heart had been broken after knowing the truth of her mothers death and then by almost losing the most important man in her life. She had almost reached the end of her energy level but she was a light sleeper.
Chapter 212 - Shooting Again (Part Two)
Chapter 212: Shooting Again (Part Two)
She could hear the sound of gunshots. Blood was everywhere, dying her entire vision red, suffocating her so much that she almost couldnt breathe. With that, she woke up.
Did I wake you up, Sister? I am sorry, I came to change the wounds dressing. Mu Qing said guiltily.
Shangguan Ning looked expressionlessly at Jing Yiran who was standing behind Mu Qing and said softly, It is okay, I wasnt sleeping. Give me the dressing, I can change it for him.
Mu Qing didnt insist. Instead, he gave it to Shangguan Ning.
The blood stter on Shangguan Nings face had been washed away. But she was still wearing the purple dress which she had worn, the previous day. The dress was creased, and the blood stains on the dress had turned into dried kes. She looked messy.
She stood up and extended her hand to reach for the te in which the gauze and medicine were lying.
Jing Yiran was staring intently at Shangguan Nings pale face when all of a sudden, he felt something outside the window sh by.
That was the reflection of the sighting mirror on the sniper rifle.
Without hesitation, Jing Yiran shouted watch out and plunged at Shangguan Ning.
The thick twoyer ss windows exploded with the bullet the next second.
Before Shangguan Ning had time to react, she had already been pushed down by Jing Yiran. In the meanwhile, she felt a piercing pain in her arm.
Blood gushed out and she knew immediately that the bullet had hit her arm.
Jing Yiran and Mu Qing spoke simultaneously.
Are you alright, Shangguan Ning?
Are you okay, Sister?
Tiger and Lee Duo rushed in after hearing the loud noise. They shouted, Lady!
Shangguan Ning pushed Jing Yiran away from her and turned a look at the tall building, visible from her position. But she could see nothing.
With one hand covering the wound, she said in a calm voice whilst tolerating the pain. I am fine, go and find the killer!
Tiger and Lee Duo nodded, but they didnt move. Their responsibility was to keep Shangguan Ning safe. Someone else was in charge of finding the killer.
The loud crashing sound woke up the man lying in sickbed. Jing Yichen opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Shangguan Nings bleeding arm.
He called out Ning hoarsely and wanted to get up the following moment. But the pain in his chest stopped him from even trying it.
Shangguan Ning was very close to his bed side, so she heard his voice immediately.
She thought that she was just imagining, but when she looked at him, a pair of ck eyes were staring back at her.
For a moment, Shangguan Ning forgot about her wounded arm and the searing pain. She was happily surprised and said, You are awake, Yichen?
He recalled the trail of events preceding the gunshot. It took him a few seconds before Jing Yichen realized that he had fallen into aa because of being shot and that he was lying at Family Mus Hospital.
But that was not what he cared about at the moment. Instead, he stared at Shangguan Nings arm where blood was gushing out from and said to Mu Qing, Stop the bleeding!
Mu Qing was still reeling under the shock of what had just happened. He had never witnessed such a thing happening within such close distance. Fear had turned him into a statue.
Jing Yichens voice brought him back to reality. He quickly lifted Shangguan Nings arms and checked it out.
Mu Qing said anxiously, The bullet is still in your arm, Sister. We need to operate upon it right away to take it out.
Shangguan Ning didnt want to leave Jing Yichen at this moment. He had just woken up and she wanted to stay by his side! She wanted to take care of him and didnt want to get operated upon.
Just leave it there. Bandage it up so that it doesnt bleed. I dont want to go anywhere, I want to stay by his side.
No way!
That wont work!
Jing Yichen and Mu Qing spoke simultaneously.
Mu Qing, give her a strong anesthesia and take her to the operating room! Jing Yichen said in a hoarse voice and gave the order in an authorized tone.
Mu Qing understood what Jing Yichen meant. He answered positively and decided to get her drugged first before pushing her into the operation room. He had never met any woman before who could stay so calm as to allow the bullet to remain in the arm.
Did she want to live or not?
If the bullet stayed on in the arm, the wound would get infected and the blood would keeping out. That was a kind of pain which no one was able to bear.
Shangguan Ning seemed to understand that Jing Yichen was dead serious.
Worried that she would not wake up until a whileter, she said instantly, I will go for the operation, just dont drug me heavily.
Mu Qing pulled up Shangguan Ning and started to walk outside. Sister, hurry up. The sooner I take out the bullet, the earlier you will be able to get back. I can do the operation fast, ten minutes at most!
Shangguan Ning walked out of the ward but she kept looking back at Jing Yichen who gave her a consoling look.
It was not until Shangguan Ningid down on the operation desk that she realized that Jing Yiran had disappeared. Shangguan Ning was stricken with a weird feeling when she thought of how Jing Yiran pushed her down at the right moment.
She had thought that Jing Yiran would be thest person who would save her. But he turned out to be the first one. Didnt he keep using her to provoke Jing Yichen? Wouldnt he be happy if she got injured? Why did he save her?
Shangguan Ning wasnt scared actually. For one thing, it was because her mind was on Jing Yichen totally and for another, she had already put on the bullet-proof coat which Jing Zhongxiu had sent the previous night.
But Jing Yiran totally forgot that Shangguan Ning had a bullet-proof coat on. He had been afraid that she would get injured so he pushed her down subconsciously.
All was ready at the operation room, so Mu Qing instantly started to disinfect and stopped the blood on the wound the moment Shangguan Ning came into the operation room. Then he took the nipper to remove the bullet from her arm.
The bullet was stuck between the bone of her arm. Mu Qing soon brought out the bullet being an experienced doctor. He didnt even use any other instrument.
Then he took the operation knife and removed some of the burnt flesh on Shangguan Nings arm to make sure that the flesh was safe from infection.
He was working carefully when a soft voice spoke from behind his back. Is she alright now?
Mu Qing answered subconsciously, She is okay. She will recover soon.
Only then did he realize that something was wrong. Who dared to enter his operation room?
Jing Yichen?
Mu Qing looked back and sure enough, he saw Jing Yichen who was supposed to be in the sickbed, standing right in front of him!
He almost screamed out of astonishment.
Chapter 213 - The Wounded Couple
Chapter 213: The Wounded Couple
Did he want to scare him to death? He had just woken up from aa and his face was as pale as a dead man, yet he dared toe out and idle around here? Why didnt his men do anything!
As a matter of fact, Tiger and Lee Duo had tried to stop him, but neither of them dared to use force against him, fearing that his wound would open up.
Mu Qing had never been so astonished in his entire life. His hand that held the knife trembled, almost poking a hole in Shangguan Nings arms.
Shangguan Ning also saw Jing Yichen. Seeing that he hade to the operation room, she totally forgot that she was also undergoing an operation. She sat up immediately and said angrily, Why are you here? Go back and lie down!
She tried to get off the bed in anxiousness.
The moment she got up, Mu Qings knife tipped, opening up Shangguan Nings wound further.
Mu Qing got so pissed that he almost walked off.
These two were simply too troublesome.
One refused to get the bullet removed and wanted to leave before the wound was stitched after being persuaded to undergo the operation!
Whilst the other had just been rescued from the jaws of death and was roaming around just to watch the operation! He could still stitch back the ripped wound, but if Jing Yichen got internal bleeding because of the wound, he would not be able to revive him even if he were a deity!
He had thought that Jing Yichen was not going to wake up until tomorrow. But he was unexpectedly stronger than his anticipation. Also, the deafening sound of broken windows had brought him back ahead of time.
He should have put more sedatives into him so that he would not find himself in such a peculiar situation.
Mu Qing pushed Shangguan Ning back onto the operation table as he tried to remove the burnt flesh around the wound.
Then he said without turning his head, You better go back to the room and lie down, because the blood vessels in your chest may tear again thanks to your moving around. I am not so skilled at everything, so please, Master Jing, get yourself transferred somewhere else. I wont be able to save you here!
Hearing what he said, Shangguan Ning got so anxious that tears trickled out of her eyes. She pleaded, Please, Yichen, just go back! I am fine, I will be alright soon. Go back and wait for me there.
Seeing that her arm that was covered with blood, Jing Yichen felt his heart aching and the pain in his chest seemed to increase multifold.
He also understood that he wasnt in a great position as well. Seeing Shangguan Ning bleed so much yet being fine, his heart calmed down. He nodded at her, turned around and walked out of the operation room.
Both Shangguan Ning and Mu Qing let out a sigh of relief seeing Jing Yichen leave.
Mu Qing sped up and even did the stitches exceptionally fast C he was afraid that if he slowed down, Jing Yichen woulde here again.
He must have owed a great deal to Jing Yichen in his previous life!
Shangguan Ning also understood that she had caused a lot of trouble to Mu Qing. So she said to him in an apologetic tone, I am sorry, Doctor Mu. I was kind of out of control just now. Please dont mind me.
Mu Qing of course couldnt get angry with this couple. He smiled upon hearing what she said, It is okay.
He tied the knots and spoke in a rxed tone, Alright, Sister, your wound is done. Dont get it wet, or eat any stimting food, and stay...
Before he could finish speaking, Shangguan Ning was already off the operation table, and walked out.
Mu Qing said to himself in a helpless tone whilst standing there, This couple has exactly the same temper! They just throw me away after using me. I feel wronged as a handsome, talented young man.
The moment Shangguan Ning came out of the operation room, Lee Duo, who was guarding outside, said instantly, Lady, Master is here!
The ss windows of the previous room were shattered, so Jing Yichen had shifted into another room.
It seemed that Jing Yichen had told Lee Duo to wait for her there. She said instantly, Okay!
This time the room faced a broad road rather than any tall buildings.
They must have been worried about another murder attempt by the killer, so they found a safer room.
Shangguan Ning already hated the killer and the nner to the bone.
She would not have been so angry if she had been hurt, but her heart was full of hatred because Jing Yichen was injured.
Tiger opened the door for Shangguan Ning and she walked in hurriedly.
Because of the previous attempt, Tiger had already brought in some more bodyguards who were stationed in the ward for their protection.
Shangguan Ning didnt have eyes for anybody else. She called out Yichen concernedly and reached his side quickly. She wanted to hold him but didnt want to hurt the wound, so she held his hand instead.
Jing Yichen lifted a hand with a lot of effort, wanting to touch her face. But Shangguan Ning pushed it down.
You are badly injured, dont move around, okay? Just lie still.
What about you? Are you okay? Dont sit here, go and lie down on the bed instead! Jing Yichens hoarse voice sounded full of love and concern.
There were two beds in the ward. The other one had been ced for Shangguan Ning.
But she didnt want to lie down. She just wanted to stay by Jing Yichens side, hold his hand and watch her own reflection in his eyes.
Only in this way would she remain assured.
She hadnt lost him. He was still with her. That felt wonderful!
Jing Yichen could understand her feelingpletely. There was one time when he had thought that he would lose her too. That was an indescribably terrible feeling, one that still ripped his heart. He just wanted to keep her close to him and make sure that she was safe and sound.
The sickbed in the room was two meters wide, so there would not be any problem if they shared one.
He patted the empty space next to him and said calmly, Get on the bed, lets lie down together.
Shangguan Ning shook her head. She was afraid that she would bump into his wound, and Tiger had ced so many men in the room that she couldnt just go lie with him.
She looked at Jing Yichen reluctantly and then gave him a quick kiss on the lips despite her shyness.
Stay here. I will go to the other bed, call me when you need something.
A smile hovered on Jing Yichens pale face as he nodded. Okay, dont worry. I will be fine, and will get better soon. You also rest well.
Chapter 214 - The Killer God – Jing Zhongxiu
Chapter 214: The Killer God C Jing Zhongxiu
After the shooting, Jing Yiran left the hospital immediately seeing that Shangguan Ning was fine. He ran straight to the building opposite the hospital.
When he arrived, he found that the tall building had already been surrounded by arge number of people.
Outside the building, the policemen had arrived at the scene within three minutes of the incident, breaking their own record. Four police helicopters were already circling overhead, and all the traffic nearby had been blocked. Many armed police were waiting with guns, dressed in bullet-proof jackets.
Judging from the situation, the killer might have no chance of escaping.
Jing Yiran suspected that Jing Zhongxiu had used the entire police force. Even if there was any murder happening anywhere in the city, there would not be any personnel spared for the case.
Half an hourter, the police found a body on the 36th floor of the building.
The body was still warm with only one fatal gun wound. The killer might have shot himself after realizing that he had nowhere to go.
The following day, the incident was published in the newspaper. The article described in detail about how the killer and the police had acted and reacted respectively, but it reported nothing about the victim. No one had any idea who the killer had been supposed to kill.
At a luxurious vi spread over hundreds of square meters in the southern part of A City, Jiang Nan, the olddy of Family Yang was seated at an old-fashioned wooden armchair made of silkwood. She finished reading the newspaper within a few minutes.
Then she shouted to Shangguan Rouxue who silently stood behind her, Get down on your knees!
Grandmother! Shangguan Rouxuesrge eyes sparkled with panic. She was trembling.
Mrs. Yang closed her eyes, and the Butler beside her immediately cracked a short whip at Shangguan Rouxues knees hard.
With a loud sound, Shangguan Rouxue kneeled down involuntarily.
Mrs. Yang opened her eyes and said in an icy cold tone, I knew that bitches always give birth to bitches! Both of you dared to use me? Seems that you have been living such a wonderful life that you forget what death actually means.
Grandmother, you have misunderstood us. Mom and I love you so much, how can we ever use you? Shangguan Rouxue trembled hard kneeling on the floor. Her face had gonepletely pale.
I have the right to decide who lives and dies in Family Yang. Anyone I want to kill will not have a chance to stay alive. Have you lived enough to court death? Shangguan Ning is thedy of Family Jing, and you dared to conceal such an important piece of information! Did you n to kill the entire Family Yang with you?
Mrs. Yang had just finished her words when a servant came running in and said anxiously, Old Lady, some people from Family Jing are here. We cant stop them! They... they are carrying guns!
Jiang Nan got up from the chair, calmly.
Lets go and see!
She didnt disy any signs of panic.
Before she could take another step, the door opened again.
A tall and middle-aged man stood there with the sun rays trickling in from behind him, almost forming a halo around him.
Jing Zhongxiu! Jiang Nan burst out in surprise and anger.
Jing Zhongxiu was standing at the door. He didnt step in and spoke in aposed voice, It is me, Mrs. Yang. I shouldnt have behaved so impolitely as you are my senior. But Family Yang has behaved in such a manner that I am left with no choice. Family Yang has tried to hurt the offspring of Family Jing. As the master of Family Jing, I am here to ask for justice. Mr. Yang couldnt have foreseen that the family business he had built through hard work in his life would be ruined in the hands of three women! I came here today only out of respect for the deceased Mr. Yang. Dont worry, no one, not even a dog wont be able to step out of Family Yangs vi today.
Having said these words, he retreated. The gate of the vi closed gradually and the sunlight started to disappear slowly. It made the people inside feel as if the path of their lives was closing down.
Before Mrs. Yang could say anything, a loud deafening sound of explosion arose in Family Yangs vi and the ground trembled violently.
Three vis that stood in a row copsed one after another. Painful screams could be heard alongside the sound of the explosion.
Jing Zhongxiu ignored everything and walked out of the colorful garden of Family Yang. He said to a man dressed in ck, Stay here. When the policee, tell them that Family Yang owned these properties, and we set off the bombs to it. If anyone wants to go inside to rescue anyone, dont stop them. But if anyone lives, tell me the names. Also, get anyone from Family Yang who is still out there.
The man in ck answered positively. Then he opened the car door for Jing Zhongxiu and helped him get inside the luxurious Rolls Royce.
Family Yang whose properties were on the third position of A City, copsed overnight. The stock prices fell and the family broke into pieces. The members of Family Yang all over the globe got caught and were sent to prison because of some old crimes like bribes or simply went missing.
It was breaking news in A City. Everyone was trying to figure out who Family Yang had offended so badly that it copsed so fast.
Those who knew the truth were trying hard not to mention anything about it.
Family Jing was very powerful in A City and no one dared to offend them. Family Jing had been powerful many years earlier as well and Jing Zhongxiu was a name known to every household. He was distant yet had a mild temper. He never got furious easily.
But if he ever did, then he would be destructive and unstoppable.
The fact that Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning were the targets of a killer had been kept confidential. Almost no one knew that they had been injured. But he didnt conceal the truth that Jing Zhongxiu had bombed three vis of Family Yang and killed everyone inside. He even told the police about it of his own ord. Therefore, many people got to know that Family Yang was ruined because of Family Jing.
Family Yang had been very famous and intimidating in A City, so everyone was surprised that such a massive family could be destroyed within such a short span of time. Family Jing was indeed a powerful one and no one dared to offend them.
Family Jing had be more formidable than ever.
Jing Yiran, who was frivolous and careless, sensed the change before everyone else did.
When he used to step out before, there was always someone who came and pleaded with him and paid respect to him. But when he stepped out now, people gave him a look as if he were a ghost. They trembled and couldnt even say a thing. They were afraid that if they did anything to annoy this Second Master, he may report it to his father, and their families would be ruined just as Family Yang!
Chapter 215 - Couple in Deep Love
Chapter 215: Couple in Deep Love
At Family Mus Hospital, the wounded couple Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen had gotten slightly better in spirit and body. Jing Yichen still couldnt get off the bed, but had slightly better facial expressionspared to yesterday.
Jing Yichen had driven out all the bodyguards from the room. He didnt want his conversation with his wife to be heard by those people.
Shangguan Ning stayed right next to Jing Yichen. She couldnt change the medicine for him because of her own injured arm, so Mu Qing had to do the job. But she didnt want the nurses to feed him. She fed Jing Yichen herself with her uninjured arm.
Shangguan Ning was annoyed just by the thought of her husband being fed by a nurse. She would probably lose it if she really saw it happening.
Although the woman was the nurse at the hospital, still she was a woman!
Seeing his wife driving out the enthusiastic nurse out of the ward again, Jing Yichen smiled secretly.
She really was a jealous woman!
Even if Shangguan Ning hadnt turned down the nurses, Jing Yichen would not have epted it. He wouldnt ept being fed by anyone else than Shangguan Ning, be it a woman or a man. He would rather pick up the spoon to feed himself and tolerate the pain.
Shangguan Ning had hurt her upper right arm. So she couldnt use it to a great deal these days and her continuous use of her left hand had made it more flexible.
Jing Yichens sickbed could be adjusted automatically, saving Shangguan Nings strength to help him up.
She pressed the button and the upper side of the sickbed was raised.
She used her left hand to put the white towel in warm water to soak it. Then she wrung the towel half dry, spread it open and wiped Jing Yichens hands and face.
She brought the porridge to the bed and tasted it to check for its temperature. Finally, she scooped one spoonful and raised it to Jing Yichens lips.
Seeing her determined efforts and no care for her own pain, Jing Yichen felt his heart soften.
If that killer had not killed himself, he wouldnt have allowed him to die so easily. He would have definitely made him taste what it was like to stay alive and suffer.
Jing Yichen opened his mouth and swallowed down the porridge obediently even though he hated it.
No one had taken such good care of him ever like this even when he had got seriously sick or injured. She took care of him as if he were a kid, cleaning him, helping him dress and feeding him.
It felt really nice to be taken care of by someone so lovingly. That made Jing Yichen feel that he was a family man now instead of being alone.
Suddenly a thought struck him and he said, Did you take care of Xie Zhuojun in this way earlier?
He looked unhappy and sounded quite displeased as if his treasure had been robbed by someone.
Startled, Shangguan Ning burst intoughter.
She stuffed thest spoonful of porridge into Jing Yichens mouth and chuckled. Dont worry. I never fed him, because when he woke up from thea, his limbs were too stiff to move. In order to recover as soon as possible, he had to use the chopsticks to feed himself, as per the doctors instructions. So, I and the other two nurses never fed him.
Although I was engaged to him, I barely talked with him. I even felt embarrassed to do anything for him. So the two professional nurses did everything and I was only in charge of telling him stories.
Jing Yichen knew very well how shy Shangguan Ning could get. She was definitely not someone who would get close to any man for no reason. When he had just married Shangguan Ning, she even flushed when he touched her hands and would getpletely red in the face when he said something lustful.
Jing Yichen felt better, but the next minute he pouted childishly. I want to hear stories too!
Shangguan Ning chuckled. She lowered his bed and said gently, Alright, Baby Jing, but can you allow your wife to eat first so that she can tell you stories on a full stomach?
Baby Jing?
The name sounded terrible.
But before Jing Yichen objected, Shangguan Ning said proudly, How does the name sound? Lets name our son Baby Jing in the future, easy to remember and speak. Sounds very much like a happy name.
Jing Yichens eyes sank. He said helplessly, My wife, can we not name our son this easily? Dont you want to consult his father?
He would be the heir of Family Jing. And he would be the President of Jingsheng Enterprise in the future. President Baby? His wife was indeed creative.
Jing Yichen decided that when they had a son in the future, Shangguan Ning was definitely not going to name their child. Her ideas were terrible.
Speaking of that, when were they going to have a son? They had been married for half a year now and her stomach was still silent. Maybe Mu Qing should conduct a check up.
Seeing Shangguan Ning finishing her breakfast and her injured arm, Jing Yichen gave up the idea of making her tell the stories.
When she finished the food and the nurse removed the tableware, Jing Yichen patted the empty ce next to him. Come, lie down here.
If I move I will hurt your wound. Shangguan Ning disagreed. Didnt you want me to tell you a story? I will sit by your side and tell you the story, alright?
I am not a three-year-old child or a broken-headed vegetative man. What do I need stories for? I was just joking. Come to my side. I want to hold you. If you donte, I will get up to bring you here, myself.
Shangguan Ningpromised instantly. Alright, alright! I will lie down with you. You stay still.
Jing Yichen might really have done what he said. But his wound would bleed again if he moved.
Shangguan Ning, who was dressed in a set of baggy patient gown, removed her slippers and lied down to Jing Yichen who was also dressed in a patient gown but still looked extremely good.
Jing Yichen stretched out his arm to bring her closer and Shangguan Ning also took hold his waist. That made them finally feel at ease.
Yichen, you mustnt do that again next time, okay? I was so scared!
Shangguan Nings voice was low. She didnt dare think back to what happened two days earlier, because whenever she thought about that, her heart ached and she started to cry.
Jing Yichen knew what she meant. Ignoring the pain on his wound, he turned and kissed her forehead as he said softly, There wont be a next time.
If there was a next time, I am still going to stand before you, without a doubt.
Chapter 216 - Father and Son Made Peace (Part One)
Chapter 216: Father and Son Made Peace (Part One)
The news that Family Yang was ruined swept across the entire A City, and the cause of its destruction, namely Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning, had no idea about it at all because of their treatment at the hospital in secret.
Jing Zhongxiu came to visit Jing Yichen only once and it seemed that he came to visit Shangguan Ning as an excuse of visiting Jing Yichen.
He said softly, You both concentrate on recovering and dont think of anything else. There is no danger now. Those who were supposed to die are not alive any more and those still alive, are suffering badly.
After Jing Zhongxiu left, Shangguan Ning asked Jing Yichen in bewilderment, Did father say that those who hurt us, have all been captured?
Jing Yichen held his wifes hand and said, Yes, that is what he means. But you dont need to worry too much. There is nothing he cant solve in A City.
It depended on whether or not he wanted to do that.
Now that he had said the words, it basically meant that all problems had been solved.
Father didnt look so good. He couldnt have rested well these past days. But why did you have such a cold expression on your face when you looked at him? You should have smiled and spoken with him. He was so worried about you!
I think that he came to the hospital because he wanted to see you. He would have certainly note here if I was here alone. He had been hurt fatally too many times before and knew that Jing Zhongxiu never cared. He never said anything. Jing Zhongxiu might not be sad even if he died.
Shangguan Ning red at him after hearing what he said. Are you that dumb? He cares a lot about you. He wasnt here just for me. It is just that I am at the hospital and he had a better excuse to visit us. He visited you the day when you were injured. He didnt even talk with me but hurried into the emergency room to see how you were doing!
Also, I heard from the Butler that he didnt sleep for an entire day and didnt eat anything. He wouldnt have refused to eat if he had not been concerned and upset. Father looks cold but he is warm inside. He is just bad at expressing himself. He is your elder, if you soften your stance, or show your real emotions...
Seeing Jing Yichens face getting stormier, Shangguan Ning felt that something like this will never happen.
Well... forget about expressing yourself... but you can soften your stance a little, right? You can smile, too. When you see father next time, you shouldnt look so distant. In fact when you recover, lets go and see him. We can talk with him, y chess with him. I remember that father likes fishing, right? You can go fishing with him.
Shangguan Ning kept babbling, but Jing Yichen was thinking about something else.
He didnt know if Jing Zhongxiu was cold and strict with him because he wasnt an expressive man. What he had received since he was a little boy was nothing except scolding. But Jing Yiran never got scolded no matter what he did wrong.
He didnt lie to Shangguan Ning. If he had been alone at the hospital today, Jing Zhongxiu would not havee. He would have said that a man didnt need a visit or care.
He always thought that father disliked him.
Had he been wrong? He wouldnt have been experiencing sleepless nights, otherwise. He wouldnt have refused to eat C he was a man with a schedule, and he stuck to the timetable very strictly.
Or maybe, Jing Zhongxiu was a powerful man and he thought that his son ought to be powerful as well.
His mother, Zhao Qings death was a thorn in Jing Yichens heart. He hated Zhang Rong with a vengeance, who had caused his mothers death. Mo Lan and Jing Zhongxiu were the people who had indirectly caused her death so Jing Yichen couldnt ept them in his heart.
Everyone else was alive except for his mother. Zhang Rong married into Family Jing just after she died. That had been the biggest insult to his mother.
Yichen, did you hear what I said? Shangguan Ning had said so much but the man beside her didnt react at all. She got a bit angry.
Jing Yichen came back to himself and said softly, I did. But I am afraid I cant do that.
He heard what Shangguan Ning said about getting along with the family, because his family was treating him nicely, unlike her own family who abused and betrayed her openly.
Shangguan Ning looked at him and her heart ached at the sight of Jing Yichens cold look.
It is fine. Take it slow. If you really dont like them, dont force yourself. But you mustnt argue with father any more in the future. Talk when you meet, alright? He is not having an easy time either. Also, look at me, I am doing well with father, so he is not apletely distant man. Maybe you have just used the wrong method.
Jing Yichenughed hearing herst sentence. No, my baby, it is not I who has used a wrong method. You are the special one, and he only talks with you in such a free way. Everyone else is scared of him. You mustnt take him as a good man, or you might get disappointed.
I dont care if father is not nice to others. As long as he treats me nicely, he is a good dad!
Jing Yichen knew that Shangguan Ning cherished Jing Zhongxius fatherly care very much, because she had never been cared for by a real father. She regarded Jing Zhongxiu as the closest senior and would defend him at all times.
His father also had seemed to get unexpectedly close to Shangguan Ning as if he had known her for a long time and have been her senior all along.
Jing Yichen had a different thought. He asked. Do you think that father loves having a daughter?
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. Ah, I had thought that you were an extremely smart guy with both high IQ and EQ. But it seems that you are worse than me. Have you just noticed that? I knew that ages ago. He might think that a son should support the entire Family Jing and he needs to be cultivated strictly. As for the daughter... she doesnt need to do anything except to live a nice life without pressure. She could just be a pampered princess.
That was how it was.
Jing Yichen was baffled!
He had never thought about what Shangguan Ning just said. He had always wanted to be the best since he was young so as to make Jing Zhongxiu satisfied and to let him know that he was excellent. He had never thought that gender would have made a difference in how he treated others.
Chapter 217 - Father and Son Made Peace (Part Two)
Chapter 217: Father and Son Made Peace (Part Two)
He had never thought about what Shangguan Ning just said. He had always wanted to be the best since he was young so as to make Jing Zhongxiu satisfied and to let him know that he was excellent. He had never thought that gender would have made a difference in how he treated others.
Also, he and Jing Yiran were both boys and had been treated differently as well. He had needed to ept a really heavy load of studies and physical training whilst Jing Yiran didnt need to do anything. He could learn whatever he wanted to or yed around with whatever he wanted.
But Shangguan Nings words affected his thought process.
Jing Zhongxiu had never brought up Jing Yiran as the heir. He himself had always been the only one in his heart.
He finally understood why the olddy, Zhang Rong and even the old lord said that father favored him.
He once thought that Jing Zhongxiu favored Jing Yiran by indulging him, yet the reason why father was strict to him was because he favored him.
A part of Jing Yichens heart opened up, finally. A tiny smile hovered over his lips.
He kissed Shangguan Nings forehead and said softly, Ning, you really are my lucky star.
Shangguan Ning didnt ept his praise. She sounded a bit concerned. I am not your lucky star, I am a disaster. You almost lost your life because of me, you are my lucky star, instead.
Jing Yichen smiled. We are each others lucky stars, okay?
The couple talked andughed and spent almost a fortnight at Family Mus Hospital. They had nearly converted the ce into their home. The chef Old Du and two servants Sister Lan and Sister Fang were all present and took care of them like they did in the routine life.
Both of them recovered within two weeks time, so they left the hospital and came home.
If it had not been for Jing Yichen, Shangguan Ning would not have wanted to spend so much time at the hospital. East or west, home was the best.
Shangguan Ning hadnt taken a good shower for half a month. So she went into the bathroom straight after they arrived home. The moment she came out, Jing Yichen said in a low voice, Ning, get changed, I will take you somewhere.
To where? How should I dress?
Jing Yichen took out a long-sleeved ck dress. This one will work.
He picked out a ck suit for himself as well. He got dressed and then waited for Shangguan Ning in the living room.
Shangguan Ning changed quickly, dried her hair and then walked out of the door holding onto Jing Yichens arms.
Jing Yichen didnt stop the car until they reached somewhere far.
He grabbed a bunch of white chrysanthemums with one hand and then held Shangguan Nings hands with the other as he said softly, Lets go.
Shangguan Ning didnt ask anything. She followed him on a small path.
The path was paved with light green cobbles, long and clean. Apparently, someone had been cleaning here. Green and tender sabinos were around, making the ce look tranquil and serene.
They passed through a green meadow and the patch of neat sabinos until they came to a small graveyard.
Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning came to a graveyard and stared at the picture on the grave as he said, Ning, this is my mother. It is her death anniversary today.
Shangguan Ning had guessed that Jing Yichen had brought her to visit his mother. But she didnt expect that today was her death anniversary.
No wonder Jing Yichen chose to leave hospital today.
The woman in the picture looked exquisite and perfect. She was smiling in a gentle manner and looked beautiful. She resembled Zhao Zhao, Zhao Anans mother quite a lot. But Zhao Qing looked easygoing and happier.
She held Jing Yichens hand tightly and said, Mom, I am Shangguan Ning, your daughter-inw. I will take care of Jing Yichen in the future for you, please be assured.
Having said the words, Shangguan Ning took the white chrysanthemums from Jing Yichen and ced them upon the grave.
There was a bunch of them already there.
Shangguan Ning looked at Jing Yichen and said in a low voice, Was it father?
Jing Yichen nodded and said. Should be. Hees here every year.
It seemed that he hade here earlier than him, this year.
Shangguan Ning thought that Jing Zhongxiu couldnt have forgotten his wife. When she went to Family Jing for the first time, she had noticed that Jing Zhongxiu had no affection towards Zhang Rong, only coldness. And Zhang Rong seemed to be quite used to the attitude as well.
She had heard a little bit about the story from Jing Yichen earlier, but she didnt know the specifics. She had never understood why Jing Zhongxiu got married to Zhang Rong and fathered a son with her if he didnt love her.
Jing Zhongxiu favored Jing Yichen, but he didnt ignore Jing Yiran totally. Instead, he protected Jing Yiran from getting killed by Jing Yichens hands.
All families had their own issues, even an extremely wealthy family like Family Jing. They had much more responsibility and pressure to bear, far more than ordinary people could ever imagine.
They stood for a while and then started to walk back.
They ran into Jing Zhongxiu halfway. He was carrying the fruits and food and walking towards the grave.
Father! Shangguan Ning called out to him in astonishment. She had thought that Jing Zhongxiu had left after putting down the flowers. But he didnt.
Jing Yichen was silent. Instead, he just stood there, holding hands with Shangguan Ning.
Every year on his mothers death date, he hated Jing Zhongxiu to the deepest degree. Had it not been for him, he would not have lost his mother at the age of 3.
But for some reason, Jing Yichen didnt hate him that much today. Or maybe Shangguan Ning had given him warmth or maybe he gradually understood that his father might be suffering more than he did from his mothers death.
Because Jing Zhongxiu never drank wine except for this day in the entire year. He got drunk, and was always carried back home by the Butler.
He stayed silent for a long time before he said calmly, Dad.
Jing Zhongxiu stiffened.
Jing Yichen had stopped calling him Dad after he understood the world and how his mother died. Jing Zhongxiu knew that his son hated him, but he didnt me him for that, because he hated himself too and could never forgive himself.
He had caused his beloved womans death and his son lost his mother. He hadnt been able to face him, because he felt that he had made a huge mistake, one that was not meant to be forgiven.
He had thought that his son was not going to forgive him ever, but unexpectedly, he called out to him today.
Chapter 218 - Father and Son Made Peace (Part Three)
Chapter 218: Father and Son Made Peace (Part Three)
Mother had been dead for 30 years and since then Jing Zhongxiu didnt touch another woman. Jing Yichen knew about it. What he didnt know was that his mother had been imprinted inside his fathers heart. Father believed that she was alive and on her death anniversary every year, he kept herpany for food, for wine and talk.
He suddenly realized that it had been ridiculous of him to hate his father for so many years. Maybe Jing Zhongxiu hated himself more than his son.
When they reached back to the car, Jing Yichen took Ning into his arms all of a sudden. He almost suffocated her.
Tears dropped upon her face, but there were not hers.
When the bullet had pierced through Jing Yichens heart and lungs, he didnt shed a tear. But he did so now.
Shangguan Ning held him tightly and kissed his face softly as if silently telling him that she was always beside him.
Jing Yichen couldnt hold the pain in his heart. Only the warmth of Shangguan Nings body was able to bring himfort.
Muchter, Jing Yichens pain disappeared gradually. He released his wife and said the words, both to her and himself, Ning, I will never leave you.
I am not sure if I will be able to live on, like father, without you beside me. The world will be a ce of darkness without you and I will be a walking corpse.
I am not as strong and persistent as father, so I can not lose you.
Shangguan Ning could read his mind and seemed to be able to sense the pain inside Jing Yichen. Her tears leaked out as well.
We wont be separated. We will always be together.
In the evening, Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning home and realised that the sky had turned darker. He called the Butler. Uncle Lu, is dad home yet?
The Butler wasnt expecting Jing Yichens call. But what surprised him more was that he asked about about Jing Zhongxiu, whom he had never cared about till date.
Were his ears working well when he heard Elder Master calling the Lord Dad?
He hadnt called him that for years. He had always addressed Jing Zhongxiu by his name instead.
The old Butlers eyes were filled with tears. He said happily, The Lord is not yet back. He has not been sleeping much recently and isnt feeling well either. Please, Elder Master, bring him home.
Every year on this day, it had been the Butler who brought a drunk Jing Zhongxiu back home. But this year, Jing Yichen had called him, so the Butler pushed the entire matter towards him. After all, it wasnt a usual thing that Elder Master called and asked about the Lord of his own ord and he shouldnt let the opportunity slip away.
He was afraid that Jing Yichen would turn down the offer and was about to try to persuade him some more when a shocking answer came from the other side of the phone, after a moment of silence. Okay!
Jing Yichen hung up the phone and informed Shangguan Ning before driving back to the graveyard of Family Jing.
The graveyard was located in the outskirts, quite far from the city. When he arrived there, it had turnedpletely dark.
Jing Yichen walked slowly upwards alongside the cobble path in the dim moonlight.
It was a graveyard, quiet and mysterious.
Jing Yichen couldnt imagine that father was alone in this ce on this day each year, getting drunk to get himself numb whilst tolerating the pain of losing his wife.
He reached his mothers grave and found his usually well dressed father in a messed up state. He had discarded his coat on the ground. His shirt was creased and had a wine stain on it.
He looked unusually pale in the moonlight and was leaning against the gravestone as if this way he could stay a bit closer to her.
He kept mumbling. Qing, do you feel cold here alone? Are you still angry with me? I am sorry, I was wrong. Please punish me!
Could this be the formidable and powerful Jing Zhongxiu whom people saw every day?
In this moment, he was as fragile as a child.
Jing Yichens heart broke. He almost couldnt stand still.
He took a deep breath, wiped off his own tears and strode to Jing Zhongxius side.
Dad, it iste. Time to go home.
Jing Zhongxiu got startled hearing his voice. He lifted his hands to rub his eyes and found that it was his elder son standing in front of him rather than Butler Lu.
The alcohol had made him confused. But he still sounded very astonished. What are you doing here?
He wanted to stand up, but the alcohol had numbed him and he couldnt get up.
Jing Yichen walked up to him and carried him onto his back before saying softly. I am here to take you home.
Although Jing Zhongxiu waspletely drunk, yet he had a strong will and could figure out what was going on. He wasnt used to being so close to his son, so despite his heavy headache and the stiffness of his body, he said, Put me down, I can walk by myself.
Jing Yichen didnt let him go. Instead, he walked slowly on the path. I remember you carrying me up here when I was young. Now it is my turn to carry you.
When Jing Yichen was four years old, he came to spend this day with Jing Zhongxiu. He still remembered burying his mother at the age of 3. But he didnt believe that his mother had died and abandoned him, so he didnt want to go up. Jing Zhongxiu had to carry him up, instead.
That was the only time in thirty years of his life when his father had carried him. So he remembered the experience clearly.
Apparently, Jing Zhongxiu was also reminded of what had happened years back. But he didnt expect that his son would still remember. So he didnt insist on walking by himself again and allowed his son to carry him.
Jing Yichens eyes got moist, carrying him on his back.
His tall and strong father had apparently aged. When did he get so light? He didnt even need to use much strength to keep him on the back.
Father was 188 cm tall and should have weighed at least 85 to 90 kilos, but he seemed to weigh just 10 or 15 kilos more than Shangguan Ning who was around 45 kilos.
Maybe Jing Zhongxiu felt his heart secured as hey on sons back. When Jing Yichen put him into the car, he didnt resist and fell asleep.
Jing Yichen drove Jing Zhongxiu back to Family Jing. And then he carried Jing Zhongxiu back to the vi, all the way to the bedroom under the astonished eyes of everyone in the Family.
It was the death anniversary of Elder Masters mother and everyone at Family Jing, including the servants and bodyguards knew about it. Elder Master always had a row with the Lord on this day of the year and the Lord always got drunk and was carried back by the Butler afterwards.
How did it be different today?
Chapter 219 - Bodyguard?
Chapter 219: Bodyguard?
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen didnt rest for too long before going back to Jingsheng Enterprise for work.
During the half a month when Jing Yichen was absent, Jing Zhongxiu had taken over the role of the president. There were too manyplicated business affairs at the enterprise and the president was required to make the decision. When it came to decisions that involved billions or tens of billions yuan, the President was needed to sign the contract in person.
Luckily, the father and the son were quite alike in personality, and Jing Yichen had been brought up by Jing Zhongxiu who had almost the same administration methods. So when Jingsheng Enterprise was left in the care of either of them, there was not much difference. Their staff didnt feel any major change, either.
The only difference was that Jing Zhongxiu gave face to the old employees at the enterprise and the talks were often done in a rtively harmonious way whilst Jing Yichen didnt care about reputation, so people needed to be more prepared and quicker in reaction in front of him.
On Monday morning, Shangguan Ning saw Jing Yiran dressed in a pure white suit and a blue tie in her office.
He was drinking water from the thermos cup which Shangguan Ning usually used. He looked notable and elegant.
But Shangguan Ning couldnt help but frown.
She would throw away the cupter.
So Jing Yiran wasing to work every day now? Must she see such a handsome yet annoying face every day and change a cup every day, too?
Yo, Beauty, what is that look? Do you hate me that much? I dont, that is why I used a second-hand cup. Also, shouldnt you be thankful instead? I risked my life to save you fifteen days ago and you dont care about that at all? Jing Yiran ced his long legs upon Shangguan Nings desk, put down the cup and then took the mirror from Shangguan Nings drawer to check his appearance.
Thank you for saving my life. if you hadnt risked your life to save me, I might not have gotten hurt. I had a bullet-proof jacket on me which covered everything except for my arms. So I suspect that you were taking revenge rather than saving me.
Shangguan Ning sounded cold. Having said the words, she turned around and walked to the office next door to fetch Lu Qing who could handle this maniac.
Jing Yiran got startled seeing her turn away. He realized now that he might really have done a terrible job in helping her.
But it was okay! Shangguan Ning only got injured in her arm. Yes, she got injured because of him. But that somehow made him happy, because she had some scars because of him, now. How nice it sounded! As long as she was alive, everything was just fine.
Shangguan Ning came to Lu Qings office and was about knock and enter when the door was opened from inside. A very pretty girl with a baby face stepped out.
Shangguan Ning stared at the girl in astonishment.
What was going on?
She had been at Jingsheng for so long and she had never seen Lu Qing bringing anyone into his office. He was a man who kept his private matters separate from the public affairs, and he always received his acquaintances in the guest room.
Who was this little girl?
She was feeling surprised when Lu Qing walked outside. He said to the baby-face girl at the sight of Shangguan Ning. Lu, this is Shangguan Ning, you will be her assistant.
Lu said sweetly, Sister Shangguan, nice to meet you. I am Lu and I will be your bodyguard.
Shangguan Ning got confused by how Lu Qing asked Lu to address her C assistant or bodyguard? Neither seemed right.
She was an assistant as well and she got one assistant for herself?
As for bodyguard C Lu looked tiny, skinny and short on nutrients. Her baby face made her look like an underaged girl. Was she joking about being a bodyguard?
Lu Qing brought Lu out of his office. He almostughed at the sight of Shangguan Nings astonished face. Assistant Shangguan, congrattions. You have been promoted to be one of the Deputy Presidents of the enterprise and you would be addressed as Deputy President Shangguan now. You have been promoted by the old President himself. Although the notice hasnt been issued, yet the other deputy presidents have been informed. You have the same status as the other presidents and you have been given an assistant in ordance with the treatment of other deputy presidents.
But Lu is a bit active and she doesnt know much about the affairs of our enterprise. So she wont do any work for you and will only be in charge of your safety. We can get another working assistant if you need one.
Shangguan Ning almost lost her mind upon hearing the series of surprising news.
Deputy President? She had be a Deputy President?
No way!
She had been in Jingsheng for half a year and she was already being promoted to be the Deputy President? Everyone was definitely going to get a shock. Even if she was Jing Zhongxius daughter-inw yet she shouldnt be favored in this way, right? Although she was confident about her ability and diligent in her studies, yet the pace was a bit too fast, like a rocket! Could this really work?
Also, ording to what Lu Qing said, this Lu was really her bodyguard?
That was even more shocking than the first piece of news. Jing Zhogxiu had mentioned to her that she would be promoted to be the deputy president after she had gained enough experience. She just didnt expect that it woulde so fast.
Lu was such a skinny girl... could she really be a bodyguard?
Lu seemed to have sensed her confusion. She was not angry but smiled at Shangguan Ning sweetly. She said in a lovely voice, Sister Shangguan, dont look down on me. I am very good at punching people. I can punch one for you right now if you dont believe me!
She said as she looked around and spotted Jing Yiran who just came out of Shangguan Nings office. Her eyes widened, Brother Jing!
Jing Yiran got startled and then saw Luing to his side.
He stared at Lu and forgot about her being dangerous. She looked familiar but he had no idea as to where he had met her. It was a strange feeling that drove Jing Yiran to think hard.
Seeing Jing Yiran staring at her dumbfoundedly, Lu was satisfied with his being obedient. Without saying a word, she went up and pressed down Jing Yiran from his shoulders.
With a loud pping sound, the 186-cm tall Jing Yiran was smashed to the ground by the 160-cm tall Lu.
Jing Yiran let out a cry of pain. He felt that his inner organs had been smashed down by herpletely. He couldnt breath.
Lu waved to Shangguan Ning excitedly. Sister Ning, see? I can punch people. Can I be your bodyguard now?
Chapter 220 - Lu
Chapter 220: Lu
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning stared at Lu in surprise. She hadnt expected that Lu possessed such strong power. She was also very fast and must have been received extensive trained for it. Shangguan Ning started to admire this little girl.
She said smilingly, Okay, okay, I believe you. Lu is excellent and I apologize for my mistake. I will have to trouble you in the future.
Lu could handle Jing Yiran anyway without any problem. She was finally able to get rid of the maniac.
Hearing what Shangguan Ning said, Lu got very happy. She pped her hands as a child. Sister Shangguan, please dont worry. I wont allow any bad man to bully you. She talked as if Jing Yiran was that bad man.
She was just about to leave when her ankle was gripped by someone.
Lu looked down and herrge eyes twinkled with confusion. You need anything, Brother Jing?
She didnt think that she had made a mistake by smashing him down to the ground.
Jing Yirany on the floor as if his bones had beenpletely broken. Ignoring the pain, he surveyed Lu up and down. Lu, you look very familiar to me!
Brother Jing, have you lost your memory because of my hit? We have known each other for so many years, of course I look familiar to you. Lu rolled her eyes and chuckled.
No, I think you look like someone. But I cant remember who it is. Do you have any... siblings?
Lu shook her head vividly. No, Brother Jing. You must have really got affected because of my hitting you. Go and get yourself checked up at the hospital. I am parentless, and you know that. How can I have any siblings?
Jing Yiran of course knew that Lu had no family. But when he caught sight of the side look of Lu, there came an indescribable feeling of familiarity inside his heart.
Was it because he hadnt seen Lu for half a year and had be distant from her, she looked strangely familiar when they met again?
Lu red at him and pulled her ankle out of Jing Yirans grip. She took hold of Shangguan Nings arms and said sweetly, Sister Shangguan, you are so pretty! No wonder both Brothers of Family Jing like you. I like you too!
Luckily, it was the floor for the Presidents office where the ordinary staff had no ess. Otherwise there would be a huge explosion in the entire enterprise after someone heard what Lu said.
It was too weird for both the Masters of Family Jing to fall in love with a minor assistant.
Shangguan Ning didnt know Lus origins and the reason for her addressing the two masters of Family Jing as brothers. But what she could feel was that the crystal eyes of Lu didnt reflect any viciousness. Instead, she was like a little girl who knew nothing about the world.
She was startled for a moment and then patted Lus hands as she corrected her. Brother Jing likes me, but the second Brother Jing is just asking for trouble. You will know when you grow up. I also like you, Lu, you are just lovely!
Lu Qing coughed behind her and said in a low voice, Deputy President Shangguan, Lu is 26 years old . She is an adult! It is just... that she doesnt look her age.
Shangguan Ning was again shocked. She surveyed the girl in front of her carefully.
She had a pretty face and herrge, dark eyes were pure and wless. She was skinny and short, her skin was tender. She even talked like a child. The pink Adidas sportswear as well as the white pair of sneakers and the pigtail made her look as if she were only 18 years old.
She didnt look like 26 years old. Not only in appearance, but also in mind!
Ha, you noticed that too? Lu is a bit mindless. In that way, she resembles you. She is 26 years old and still dresses like an underage woman. She has been with our family for 8 years and still hasnt grown up. So strong and fierce, I dont think you can find any husband in the future!
Jing Yiran had just got up from the ground. He massaged his wounded arm and spoke without any politeness.
Shangguan Nings heart skipped a beat. She red at Jing Yiran furiously.
She had noticed that Lu was not normal. But how could anyone just talk about her being mindless right in front of her. This man had such a vicious heart.
Fearing that Lu would get upset, she took hold of the tiny, slightly rough hand and consoled her, Lu, dont bother with what that man says. You are the smartest girl and you are very pretty. You can even perform martial arts well. You are definitely going to find a great husband.
Lu blinked and said confusedly, Sister Shangguan, why must I marry someone? I am so happy being like this. I think Brother Jing is right. I have grown much in strength. Do you think that I could be an undefeatable, powerful woman in the world?
Shangguan Ning was stuck by her words. So Lu had not thought that Jing Yiran wasughing at her. Instead, she felt that she had been praised.
Who had made her think so?
She took up Lus hands and walked into her office together. She locked Jing Yiran out and spoke in a soft tone, Lu, you are a very nice girl. What is the point of being the strongest woman? You are a grown-up and should marry someone. You will have a husband and babies too. Understand? So, you should think about something other than growing in strength...
Lu observed the surroundings of the office as she said cheerfully, Sister Shangguan, can I also call myself Shangguan? Your surname sounds so nice, I want to be called Shangguan too!
Shangguan Ning was dumbstruck.
She felt that she and Lu were not in the same room. Lu didnt take in anything she had just said.
Could she just decide whatever she wanted to be called?
Shangguan Ning was about to exin to Lu that surnames shouldnt be changed at will and that she should be named after her father when she suddenly realized that Lu was an orphan.
So she could call herself with whatever surname that she wanted. Children deserted by parents deserved care and pity. They didnt need to follow their fathersst name.
She brought out a box of chocte from the drawer and gave it to Lu and said, Okay, if you think it sounds nice. Then change your surname to Shangguan! Lu might have felt that Shangguan was a rare family name and catchy.
At the sight of the chocte box, Lu widened her eyes. Herrge eyes lit up upon hearing that Shangguan was willing to share her surname. She said happily, Great! Sister Shangguan, now I have a family name too. I will be called Shangguan Lu, right?
Chapter 221 - A High Level Deputy-President
Chapter 221: A High Level Deputy-President
Shangguan Nings heart ached when she heard her saying, Now I have a surname too. She replied softly, Yes, you are henceforth called Shangguan Lu, a very nice name.
Lu ran out with the chocte box and cried out loudly. Uncle Lu, I have my own name now. My surname is Shangguan, same as Sister Shangguan. I am no longer an orphan. Hahaha!
Jing Yiran, who was bending over the office door and was busy thinking about ways to get in, didnt realise when the door opened. His high-bridge nose banged against the door, and blood gushed out of it.
Lu, you violent woman! Didnt you see that I am here? My nose is broken because of you. Jing Yiran bellowed furiously. But Lu dashed past him all the way to Lu Qings office.
Seeing Jing Yirans unkempt hair and the way he was bleeding, Shangguan Ning suddenly felt very happy in her heart.
It seemed as if Lu was Jing Yirans nemesis.
Could Jing Zhongxiu have arranged Lu to be her assistant to defend her against Jing Yiran?
Shangguan Ning had guessed wrong. Lu wasnt ced by her side to protect her against Jing Yiran, because he was not worth Lus attention. Lu had someone more powerful and dangerous to deal with.
Jing Yichen, who had just finished his business affairs in the neighbouring city, came to pick his wife up from work at 5 that evening.
Shangguan Ning had just walked out of the office gate and looked at him in astonishment. You are back so early! She had thought that he needed to stay for two more days for the talk.
Yes, it went well and finished early. Jing Yichen said calmly. He helped Shangguan Ning to get into the car before going to his side.
Actually, Jing Yichen managed toe back home early because he had wrapped up the coboration, negotiation and implementation, all in one days time.
He didnt feel reassured without having Shangguan Ning in sight.
The scene when the bullet hit them, had left such a deep impression on him that he still felt a bit scared.
Seeing Shangguan Ning well, he let out a sigh of relief.
He spoke cheerfully as he drove, Met Lu?
Yes, I did. Shangguan Ning nodded and asked hesitantly, Is Lu really fit to be my assistant? She is strong but she looks just like a child. I wont face any danger at the office every day. We dont need her as my bodyguard there.
Lu looked like a young sister. Ning didnt feelfortable in hiring her as her bodyguard.
It is okay. Lu can do anything. Just ask her to do it. Dont think too much. Jing Yichen understood that Shangguan Ning felt reluctant to keep Lu as her bodyguard.
So he exined it to her softly, Your safety is the most important thing. My heart can only be assured with Lu besides you. She is very capable, barring her childish mind. Dont think of her as a young woman but as your bodyguard. Father has entrusted you to her care. That should be enough for you to ce your trust in her.
Lu was actually Jing Zhongxius employee. Although she did what Jing Yichen told her to, she still obeyed Jing Zhongxiu, first and foremost. Despite her child-like appearance, Jing Zhongxiu had never regarded her as a child. He hadnt shown any fatherly love to Lu as he did to Shangguan Ning. He treated her distantly.
Lu didnt live at Family Jing. Instead, she was always flitting from one ce to another. When she got tired, she went and stayed at Lu Qings home. Lu Qins wife was a virtuous woman and regarded Lu as her own daughter. Although Lu was not fully developed in mind, yet she knew who treated her well and who didnt. So she liked living at Lu Qings home and Lu Qing also treated her as a daughter.
Jing Yichen knew enough about Lu. Her response time was pretty fast and her fist packed a solid punch.
Though Lu travelled a lot but this time she had stayed away for almost half a year. Everyone was used to her disappearance, so no one worried too much when she came back intact.
Seeing that Jing Yichen insisted on taking her in, Shangguan Ning didnt say anything more.
She liked Lu. She felt that the office would be more cheerful with her around. Also, she could deal with Jing Yiran well. What a good weapon to deal with this maniac.
Speaking of Lu, Shangguan Ning unavoidably thought of her being promoted to the position of Deputy President.
Yichen, why did you give me such a high position? I guess I can start from a Director. I have learnt a great deal from the other departments during the past six months, but I dont think that I am suitable to be the Deputy President yet.
It had just been six months. If someone had told her that she could be the Deputy President of Jingsheng Enterprise, she would have thought that the man must be joking.
But it did happen.
Jing Yichen said confidently, My wife, what else would you be if not the Deputy President of the Enterprise? You are not only going to be the Deputy President, you are also going to be the most powerful one among all of them. Even I, the President, will need to obey you. Who else dare not?
Shangguan Ning looked at him helplessly.
She said anxiously, There are many business affairs of thepany which I dont know about. The other people wouldnt listen to me if I end up saying something wrong in my inexperience. I guess I can start from the fundamental position and be the deputy-president when the timees. Father has made such an impulsive decision. I am not ready yet.
I think father has made the right decision. You were not ready when I married you, were you? But six months have passed and we are sopatible. If we got married when you would be ready, it would have taken ages. So it doesnt matter if you are not ready. You will get used to the position when you are there. Dont worry, I am with you after all. From tomorrow on, I will take you to attend the business meetings alongwith. This way, I wont miss you as well. What a good idea.
That would also save him from all the unwanted attention from other women. No one would dare to flirt with him if Shangguan Ning was along.
Enough shop talk for now. Lets go to the hospital.
Chapter 222 - Infertility (Part One)
Chapter 222: Infertility (Part One)
Shangguan Ning got worried instantly. She thought that Jing Yichen was hurt again. She massaged his chest and asked in concern, What is it? Are you feeling unwell?
Jing Yichen felt kind of excited to be massaged by her warm little hands. But he said calmly, I am fine. But Mu Qing said that we need to get examined a couple of days post discharge for a routine follow up.
Shangguan Nings arm still ached slightly, so she didnt suspect anything.
But when they arrived at Family Mus Hospital, Mu Qing looked a bit weird.
The strange thing was that Mu Qing normally looked handsome after he got out of his hospital scrubs, but today he looked so... dreadful.
She turned to look at Jing Yichen next to her. He looked calm as always and when she turned to look at Mu Qing again, he looked like a sunny doctor.
Shangguan Ning assumed that she had imagined it.
But she had missed Jing Yichen chilling nce which made Mu Qing shiver and straighten up.
Mu Qing didnt go for Shangguan Nings wounded arm. Instead, he said with a smile, Give me your left wrist.
Shangguan Ning rolled up her sleeves in confusion and then stretched out the arm.
Mu Qing stopped talking and felt her pulse.
Shangguan Ning knew that Mu Qing had inherited his skills from his grandpa and was an excellent doctor. She was just assuming that he was conducting a routine check up by feeling the pulse.
But Mu Qing took turns in feeling Shangguan Nings left and right wrists and held onto each of them for a long time.
Mu Qing didnt release her wrists until Jing Yichen frowned.
He knew why Master Jing was frowning C he had started to dislike it when Mu Qings hand lingered on to Shangguan Nings wrists for too long.
He rolled his eyes at Jing Yichen helplessly as if using him in silence Cwould I know if there is anything wrong with her if I dont feel her pulses long enough? I am a doctor, not an ordinary man. There is no need to get jealous of me for doing this.
Jing Yichen understood what Mu Qing meant through his look.
He didnt choose to get her checked up through devices, because they gave out too much radiation which was bad for Shangguan Nings health and also, Mu Qing could be more urate and faster than devices sometimes.
But Jing Yichen had asked him to check up Shangguan Ning, not to feel her arms. So what if he was a doctor.
Therefore, when Jing Yichen saw Mu Qings fingers upon Shangguan Nings thin wrists, he wanted to chop off the annoying hand.
Master Jing was killing people with his look now.
He shivered in fright and immediately said, Sister, I have checked you up thoroughly. You are are recovering well. But make sure not to carry heavy things in theing month. You can do a CT in two weeks and see if the bone has healedpletely.
When the bullet hit Shangguan Nings upper arm, the bone had cracked. Mu Qing gave her some instructions in case any problem urred in the future.
Shangguan Ning kept everything in mind, and nodded with gratitude.
Jing Yichen pushed her behind, sat down on the chair and said to Mu Qing coldly, Alright, time to check me now.
Mu Qing looked at him and said, Are you sure you will be fine if I touch your wrist? Can you promise that my hand wouldnt be broken and I wont be thrown out of the window? My hands are my tools to make a living and support the family, so please dont be impulsive. No one will treat you if I am dead.
He knew pretty well that Jing Yichen didnt like himself to be touched by anyone. So he had to be warned ahead of time.
There was one time when he had patted Jing Yichens shoulders twice and had ended up being smashed and in bed for two weeks.
He even remembered an asion when Jing Yichen had gotten badly hurt and was injected by the nurse at the hospital who identally touched his hands. He had kicked the nurse away so violently that she spat blood. He also had started to puke, refusing to get injected any more. The needle needed to go into the blood vessels on the back of his hands and no doctor or nurse could manage that without touching his hands.
Mu Qing didnt have any idea how Shangguan Ning had be close to Jing Yichen and why nothing happened to him however much she touched him. It seemed that he didnt react like that to Shangguan Ning. What a bizarre thing!
Jing Yichen looked at Mu Qing and said calmly, Dont waste my time. I wont promise anything if you are too slow.
That meant that he might possibly punch people if he got out of control.
Mu Qing really wanted to stand up and strike the table at this moment Care you asking me to check you up or am I asking you to do it? Why are you being so arrogant when you are asking me for a favor? He had studied so hard, done so many operations and became a renowned doctor. But he still ended up being oppressed.
I am done with working for you.
But Mu Qing was just daydreaming. He didnt dare to speak these words out, otherwise Jing Yichen might end his life at this very moment.
Mu Qing sighed in heart. Actually, he was also pleased.
Because in the entire A City, he was the only man Jing Yichen trusted. He wouldnt ruin such a good rtionship, one that everyone else dreamt to have.
Seeing Jing Yichen getting colder and colder in countenance, Mu Qing ced his fingers, obediently upon Master Jings wrist.
The moment he touched Jing Yichen, Mu Qing felt that Jing Yichens body froze. His face turned terribly pale.
How could it be so serious? He disinfected his hands many times a day as a doctor and his hands were very clean. Why did Jing Yichen look so disgusted as if he had swallowed down faeces?
Shangguan Ning was also confused about what Mu Qing said. She wondered why Mu Qing needed to ask Jing Yichen if he could touch his wrist. But when she saw Jing Yichens face as he ced the fingers upon Jing Yichens wrists, she was really surprised.
Chapter 223 - Infertility (Part Two)
Chapter 223: Infertility (Part Two)
Shangguan Ning burst out. What is wrong, Yichen?
His face had turned pale. It hurt her when she saw him in this condition.
Ignoring Mu Qing, she held his face in her hands and asked in concern, Are you feeling unwell, Yichen? Does your wound hurt again? Do you need to lie down? Please tell me, I am so scared.
Jing Yichen buried his face in Shangguan Nings chest, trying hard to resist the nausea and replied, I am fine, dont worry.
Although Shangguan Ning heard him saying that he was fine, yet her heart told her otherwise.
She looked at Mu Qings hand upon Jing Yichens wrist. His hand was tightly clenched.
A thought hit her brain all of a sudden C so Jing Yichen couldnt tolerate being touched by anyone?
Howe?
He didnt have any problems when she touched him.
Mu Qing stopped joking. Instead, he looked very serious as he touched Jing Yichens left hand and then said in a low voice, Master Jing, give me your right hand.
Jing Yichen stretched out his right hand.
Luckily, Shangguan Ning was beside him and held him in her arms, whichrgely reduced his physical difort. Otherwise he would have puked right away.
Luckily, Mu Qing knew about Jing Yichens problem, so he finished the examination quickly.
He had identified what the problem was.
Jing Yichen looked up and asked in a low voice. What is it?
Mu Qing answered seriously, The problem lies with you. Sister is fine. But your problem is also curable, not a big deal.
The healthier one was, the less sick one looked. He had taken long and was careful while checking Ning to make sure that everything was fine. It took Mu Qing only a few seconds before he realized that something was wrong with Jing Yichen.
Hearing his words, Jing Yichen got slightly depressed. He had suspected that the problem was with him, but he had taken Shangguan Ning along just in case.
Shangguan Ning got increasingly confused. She could hear what they were saying, but had no idea what these men were talking about.
What was wrong with Jing Yichen?
Alright, I see. Give me the prescription and I will get the medicine in two days.
Having said the words, Jing Yichen was about to take Shangguan Ning away.
But Shangguan Ning wasnt so gullible or easily tricked. She didnt want to leave. Instead, she said to Mu Qing, Doctor Mu, what is it going on? What is wrong with Yichen? Is he... okay? Please tell me, I have the right to know the truth as his wife!
Mu Qing smiled. He looked at Jing Yichen whose face had shrunk, Oh, nothing serious. Master Jing doesnt like to be touched, as you know. He has an obsession of tidiness. You may not have noticed that.
Shangguan Ning had been married to Jing Yichen for so long. Of course she knew that Jing Yichen had the obsession.
She had noticed that he was particr about being clean. He never used anything that had been used before by anyone else. He didnt like touch anyone elses things except for hers.
But how Jing Yichen reacted just now couldnt just be a cleanliness obsession. She had seen people who had the obsession C they were people who kept washing hands and who liked everything in white. Although there were some who could be extreme, but no one could get so bad like this when they were touched by others.
Mu Qing wasnt telling the truth!
Shangguan Ning seemed to know that Mu Qing wouldnt answer her. So she frowned at Jing Yichen and asked. What is it going on? Tell me the truth or you will sleep on the street tonight.
Jing Yichen couldnt help but feel helpless at the sight of his bossy wife. Mu Qing burst intoughter. Yet he stopped instantly at the sight of Jing Yichen who was scowling at him.
Jing Yichen pinched her nose and said calmly, I know I cant conceal it from you. I dont want to conceal it from you either. After all, it concerns both of us. I just didnt want to tell you because I thought that you would get embarrassed.
I wont! Tell me, what is it going on. Shangguan Ning wasnt convinced. This was rted to Jing Yichen. Her heart wouldnt feel assured without getting a proper answer.
Mu Qing, speak up. What is wrong with us.
Hearing what Jing Yichen said, Mu Qing stopped smiling. He put his hands into the pocket of his white gown and said in a professional way, Actually, you are suffering from infertility. To put it more urately, the man is infertile, mainly because his genital organs are full of blood clots, so the environment for sperm to travel and live is destroyed, making the sperm less active.
Master Jings genital organs were once injured, but that only affected the sperm production, not your married life. That exins why you are not pregnant even after being married for half a year. Of course, it is not a big deal. It is amon disease that often happens among young men. The rate of urrence is often 10 %~15% among men, normally, and 19%~41% of men are infertile. But I am 100 % sure that I will be able to cure Master Jing, so dont worry Sister, remember to give me a huge red packet when the little master is born, haha!
After Mu Qings words, Shangguan Nings face flushed as red as an apple. Her white earlobes and neck were red too. She wanted to disappear right at this moment.
She didnt expect that Jing Yichen had brought her here today, for this check-up.
It was so embarrassing.
But Jing Yichen wasnt affected at all as if Mu Qing were not talking about him.
Instead, he chuckled. See, I told you that you shouldnt have asked. But you still wanted to know the truth. Satisfied now?
Shangguan Ning ignored him and turned around to walk away.
Without saying goodbye to Mu Qing, Jing Yichen walked out with his wife.
Standing alone in the office, Mu Qingughed as he thought. Jing Yichen, honestly! Even if you are infertile...
Afterwards, he started to think about Jing Yichens disease.
Theoretically speaking, it wasnt weird if other men got this disease, but Jing Yichen was a man who lived cleanly. How could he have gotten this disease? Could he have been injured in that area?
He had Tiger as his bodyguard and many other protecting him. Who could have hurt him?
Maybe his problem of not tolerating being touched had something to do with this!
Chapter 224 - Master Jing Didn’t Want Food
Chapter 224: Master Jing Didnt Want Food
Shangguan Ning was still blushing badly when they reached home.
Jing Yichen picked her up and chuckled. Baby, what are you blushing for? It is I, who has a problem, not you!
Shangguan Ning pinched hard upon his waist and said furiously, Why didnt you tell me earlier about what we went to Mu Qing for... I feel so embarrassed!
What are you embarrassed about? I have some blood clots in the important organ, or some deterred sperms and so on. Your husband is so seriously sick that he cant even be a real man. Mu Qing must beughing at me right now in his office.
Jing Yichen had be unhappy after hearing what Mu Qing said about his illness.
It was such a shame when a man who loved his wife so much and wanted to have kids, heard that he was infertile. His self-respect had drowned in the sea.
But Shangguan Ning had been blushing for almost one hour, like an overripe tomato.
Jing Yichen found it funny and endearing seeing her like this. He no longer felt dispirited inside his heart.
It happened again C he had just said a few words, and she started to flush again.
Shangguan Ning felt her cheeks burning hot. She said in a very shy and low voice, Dont say things like that. I know that you... have ... no problem....
Even the doctor says that I have a problem. Dont console me, I am a pitiful man who cant even touch his wife... Jing Yichen sounded quite sour as if he had just received a huge blow.
Shangguan Ning had never heard Jing Yichen speak in this tone. She really thought that he was disheartened by what happened today. After all, it was a matter of a mans dignity and Jing Yichen, who was a legendary man, would find it tougher to ept it.
She didnt want her beloved man to misunderstand her or get sad. So she kissed his lips and whispered, Dont talk nonsense, you even did... you know,st night. Doctor Mu says that it is not a problem and you mustnt deny yourself. I think that you are... excellent at it, because I feel... very... very nice every time we do it...
Shangguan Ning spoke in a low voice, especially thest few words that could almost not be heard. But Jing Yichen heard everything clearly. Her sweet voice excited him.
His wife had said that he was excellent!
He suddenly felt himself floating in the air with her praise.
He looked at her lowered eyes. Her charming words started to excite him that very instant.
Shangguan Ning was sitting on his thighs and they were only separated by a thinyer of clothes. She had her hands under his face and was staring at him with love in her eyes. It wouldnt be normal if Jing Yichen was able to resist this.
He picked her up in his arms and walked straight to the bedroom.
Shangguan Ning protested with a flushed face. Put me down, time for dinner...
I dont want food. I want you.
The room was filled with excitement and frenzied passion. The heart-striking melody bloomed so vividly that even the clouds became shy and the moon hid itself.
Shangguan Ning had wanted to ask him what injury had he received which caused this problem. She also wanted to know why he reacted so badly when Doctor Mu felt his wrist. But she was smothered by Jing Yichens kisses in no time.
When Shangguan Ning got up the following day, she was extremely tired. But the culprit was fresh and full of energy.
Seeing the red marks on her body, Shangguan Ning red at him. I suspect that you are not sick at all. Did you put on a performance in front of Mu Qing yesterday?
Jing Yichen burst intoughter and said, Mu Qing said that our marital life wont get affected except that... we wont get children that easily. I think that I should put in more effort to improve our chances.
Shangguan Ning got very embarrassed whenever she thought of what happened at the hospital. She had never expected that she would visit the hospital one day with Jing Yichen because of infertility.
Seeing his wife blushing once again, Jing Yichen couldnt resistughing out loud. But he decided not to tease her and started to get dressed before she could say anything.
After the couple got dressed and finished breakfast, they went to the office together.
Jing Yichen had a meeting with several shareholders in the morning. Shangguan Ning was busy preparing for the material for the afternoon.
Lu came much earlier than Shangguan Ning. She must have driven away Jing Yiran who went to another floor in the morning of his own ord. Shangguan Ning saw him seated at Department of Finance for the entire morning and amusing the tedious Department of Finance.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but get worried. She frowned and asked Jing Yichen at lunchtime, Is it fine to let him stay here all the time? Department of Finance is one of the most important ces in the entire enterprise. What if he takes over. The entire enterprise will be in danger.
Jing Yichen smiled as he opened the lid of the sour plum juice Shangguan Ning liked. He passed the bottle to her and said calmly, It is a test for the Director of Finance. If she is a problem, we can just change her.
More importantly, the most important financial report of the enterprise wouldnt be seen by anyone apart from me and the other nine deputy presidents. Now you are one of us as well. That you are appointed to be one of the deputy presidents is only known to the top managers so far, but it will be publicized to the entire enterprise, tomorrow. Your rights will be enhanced to the highest level so if the Director of Finance should be fired or not, can be decided by you.
Chapter 225 - Negotiation (Part One)
Chapter 225: Negotiation (Part One)
As Shangguan Ning was drinking the sour plum juice, she suddenly felt perturbed possessing so much power. She enjoyed being Jing Yichens assistant and working for him.
Do you think I have be the one who flew in the sky in one leap? It doesnt feel right. Shangguan Ning whispered.
Jing Yichen burst intoughter and said, You are the Presidents wife, thedy of Family Jing. You are already in the sky. What do you mean by taking a leap?
Shangguan Ning was feeling a bit unsure. She was worried that her performance might affect the business of thepany. Hearing what Jing Yichen said, she felt slightly assured.
This was Jing Yichenspany and as his wife, she should stand in line with him and manage the huge business empire properly.
In all probability, Jing Yichen wouldnt give herplicated work when she was newly appointed. Even a professional with rich experience in apany would not start to deal withplicated work right from the time of his appointment.
Jing Yichen brought Shangguan Ning along with for business negotiation in the afternoon, together with Lu Qing, Tiger and Lu.
Jing Yichen tended not to take too many people when he was out for negotiations. Usually, he just had one deputy president or a top director, one assistant plus C Tiger.
It might be advantageous to have many people with him so that they could add pressure during the negotiation. But that might waste resources, since everyone at their positions had their respective work to do and it might be time consuming making the daily work suffer. Secondly, Jing Yichen was a great negotiator and didnt need anyone toe and support him.
The business negotiation this time was regarding a coboration project with Family Jis Enterprise. It involved the financial affairs of Jingsheng Enterprise that needed to be expanded.
Shangguan Ning had already made full preparations for this coboration many days ago. She had started to study about it when she was at the hospital. She was not a stranger to the financial vocabry anymore, but she was far away from being a negotiator. Jing Yichen took her along because he wanted to show her what it was like.
He was capable enough toplete the negotiation and Shangguan Ning as well as Lu Qing were there to simply remind him of some small details.
He had never wanted to cultivate his wife to be a professional woman. What would a strong woman need him for? All she needed to know was the general process of the coborations at Jingsheng and how the money was made. That would be enough for her. He would be the money maker in the family.
They picked an elegant teahouse for the meeting. When they arrived, the representatives from Family Jis Enterprise were already there.
Jing Yichen usually chose a rtively formal ce for negotiations rather than ces like teahouses. But Family Jis Enterprise had picked the ce this time.
The waitresses at the teahouse were all girls, young and beautiful. They were dressed in the ssical cheongsams in light green with peonies patterns. They looked beautiful and their white legs were exposed through the openings of the dresses, giving them a sexy look. They were very attractive and full of vigor.
Seeing Jing Yichening in, they all stood elegantly and bowed to them. They were a feast for the eyes.
All of them led the way for Jing Yichen, smilingly. The bold ones started to ask Jing Yichen for his business card.
Jing Yichen had not bothered to look at these girls for even one moment and walked into the deepest corner of the ce with an arrogant look. But Shangguan Ning felt quite sour in heart.
She was a woman of action She didnt show politeness to anyone who dared to look at her husband.
So when the following beautiful waitress approached Jing Yichen and wanted to talk with him, Shangguan Ning took a step forward and separated these beautiful girls from him. She smiled politely and said, I am sorry, but my husband isnt carrying his business cards with him today. Also, he is allergic to perfumes, so please step back.
The waitresses who were trying to approach him suddenly got startled. They had never expected that this assistant in a professional suit was the wife of this outstanding man in front of them.
All the elegant girls ceased in their steps. Only the waitress in front led them to the respective ce.
Shangguan Ning felt much better after driving away those colorful butterflies and Jing Yichen beside her couldnt help but smile a little C it had been a wise decision to bring her along. He didnt need to tolerate the annoying women any more.
Soon, they entered an isted yard and the gate with an engraved opening, making it possible for the two parties to see each other.
The man from Family Jis Enterprise on the negotiation table was none other than Ji Bo.
He had always been responsible for the financial affairs of Family Jis Enterprise and had managed to bring arge amount of flowing capital with highest investment revenue expanding Family Jis Enterprise.
Ji Bo had known that the man who woulde for the negotiation would be Jing Yichen, but what he didnt expect was that Shangguan Ning woulde along as well.
He looked at the elegant woman and then stood up to greet Jing Yichen. This way please, Family Jing.
Jing Yichen didnt miss the hidden yet long look of Ji Bos. He frowned and replied to Ji Bo quietly, looking intimidating.
Ji Bo was already used to Jing Yichens arrogance. He ignored it and started to present the people beside him after Jing Yichens team was seated.
Shangguan Ning knew Ji Bo as well as two other people next to him, thanks to Ji Lili.
A long-hair woman dressed in a white gown, who looked elegant and pretty was none other than Ji Bos cousin, Ji Jiameng.She was one of the heirs of Family Ji.
Next to Ji Jiameng was a man dressed in a suit who looked much older than Ji Bo and Ji Jiameng. He wasnt especially good-looking but had a pair of sharp eyes and was indeed a fierce guy. He was called Ji Ling, half-brother to Ji Jiameng, namely Ji Bos cousin.
There were four heirs of Family Ji and apart from Ji Lili who had already been driven out of the city by Jing Yichen, the other three were all present C Ji Bo, Ji Jiameng and Ji Ling.
Chapter 226 - Negotiation (Part Two)
Chapter 226: Negotiation (Part Two)
The only person Shangguan Ning didnt recognize was a rtively pale but elegant woman sitting next to Ji Bo.
After Ji Bo introduced his family members cum shareholders, he turned to the woman next to him with a mild expression on the face. This is my fiance, Lan Yu. She will take care of the financial affairs of Family Jis Enterprise, so she is here today.
Ji Bo was a tall and strong-built man who was born in a very famous family. He was handsome and good-looking. He was charismatically gentle and could deal with people well enough. He only lost temper on rare asions and all those times were because of Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning was not surprised that he had got a fiance. Ji Lili had dreamt about marrying Ji Bo but they were not only cousins, Ji Lili also had a terrible temper and wouldnt have been epted by Ji Bo. But Shangguan Ning had not expected that Ji Bo would bring his fiancee to the negotiation table, mixing private and business matters.
Lan Yu was a woman who belonged to a wealthy family. Just like, Ji Jiameng, she was well-seated and behaving elegantly. She was staring at Jing Yichen, but not with any affection.
After the introduction, Jing Yichen said softly, This is my wife and several assistants. Now, lets begin.
Ji Bo had previously given Shangguan Ning properties that were worth tens of billions of yuan because of Ji Lili. So he knew the rtionship between Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen. But the rest of the people next to him had not expected that Shangguan Ning was his wife. They all turned to look at Shangguan Ning in astonishment.
Although Jing Yichen had brought two women with him, but the baby-faced Lu who was dressed in a set of sportswear couldnt have been his wife. So Shangguan Ning, who was sitting next to him and wearing an ordinary professional suit must be her.
Ji Jiameng and Ji Li had met Shangguan Ning at Ji Lilis banquet, but years had gone by since then and they didnt remember her name. Also, she had changed tremendously so they couldnt recognize her.
Hearing Jing Yichen presenting her as his wife, everyone understood that she was Shangguan Ning, the culprit who had forced Ji Minyu to resign, driven Ji Lili abroad and made the entire family hand out tens of billions of yuan aspensation.
Ji Jiameng was surprised for a bit before she smiled gently. Good to see an old friend. You have changed tremendously. I did not recognize you immediately. Dont me me for it, please.
Shangguan Ning looked at her calmly and said, We met just once and we never talked. I wont me you, because we are not friends.
Ji Jiameng looked generous and graceful, yet Shangguan Ning didnt believe that after what happened to Ji Lili, she would still regard her as a friend.
Apparently, Ji Jiameng didnt expect that Shangguan Ning would confront her like this. Anger shed in her eyes for a moment before she calmed herself. She leaned herself against the chair and stopped talking.
The financial business was a huge piece of fatty meat that everyone wanted to have a piece of and Ji Bo was the only one who held the control of it for the time being. She came here today to get a share and couldnt embarrass herself in front of Ji Bo and Ji Ling.
At the negotiation table, Jing Yichen was rational and cold. He looked at Ji Jiameng and Ji Bo understood that he thought that Ji Jiameng was too noisy.
Although Ji Jiameng had just said a few words, yet Ji Bo understood it clearly after having conducted several meetings with Jing Yichen. Jing Yichen often went straight into the topic and hated any extra stuff. He didnt want any chit chatting on the negotiation table.
Ji Bo thought the same. When it came to formal business negotiation, only business should be talked about. Another day could be booked and another method could be used for the remaining stuff. Negotiation was about money and didnt need a distraction to be added on.
Without a moment of hesitation, he cut into the main topic. He was also a busy man to waste any time. Master Jing, I will dere the position of our enterprise once again. We will not give up the domestic market shares. We know pretty well how powerful Jingsheng is, so if we ever give up, we will be swallowed by you, immediately. Therefore, we only agree to provide consultants and business instructions. But as soon as a new market is developed by you guys, we would need fifty percent shares.
Ji Bo addressed Jing Yichen as Master Jing, because in business circles, President Jing was usually used for the former President Jing Zhongxiu, who still enjoyed a higher position than Jing Yichen.
Family Jis Enterprise had just opened private credit and folk financial services and the business had been rapidly developed through the contacts in the government and the banks. At the moment, the enterprise had monopolized the credit market of folk credits.
So it was very difficult for Jingsheng Enterprise to enter the arena and they needed Family Jis Enterprise to help them through. All the top managers of Jingsheng didnt believe that it was possible, because Family Jis Enterprise exceeded Jingsheng only in this way and they wouldnt offer Jingsheng their own channels. Otherwise they were just asking for a death wish.
Jing Yichen was here to turn the impossible into a possibility.
Family Jis Enterprise had more than one heir, which was different from Jingsheng Enterprise which had Jing Yichen as the only heir. Although Jing Yiran had got half of the inheritance, yet he had no power at all. Jingsheng was apletely isted body whilst Family Ji would unavoidably face many conflicts of interests because of the four heirs.
Jing Yichen was making use of their conflicts to gain benefits for Jingsheng.
Now all the three heirs of Family Ji were here because Jing Yichen had made that possible.
Family Ji wouldnt have a hold over the domestic market forever. We will pay plenty if we get ess to your channels. We can have a fifty-fifty partnership in the parts that are developed from your channel. Also, Jingsheng can provide you with a tform for overseas financial business. We promise that we wont have other partners in the domestic market.
Jing Yichen looked calm but his purpose was very clear C what he needed was Family Jis financial channels and when the domestic business would reach its full potential, overseas business will be the key point of future development. Family Jis Enterprise had put the focus of the projects abroad yet they were too weak to make the business progress at a good pace.
After hearing what he said, Ji Bo fell into contemtion. But Ji Jiameng and Ji Ling beside him both widened their eyes. Apparently, the prospect of overseas market attracted them. However, Ji Bos fiance Lan Yu was expressionless. She was either unfamiliar with these matters or she just didnt care.
Chapter 227 - Family Jing’s Lives
Chapter 227: Family Jings Lives
Ji Bo started a fierce argument regarding the business coboration, during which time, Ji Jiameng and Ji Ling also intervened. Jing Yichen didnt show any weakness when he was against all three, but Family Ji got a bit divided due to difference in ideas and started to argue amongst themselves. Ji Bo said that he would resolve the matter after they went back home. The three of them came to apromise reluctantly and then battled against Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning had never seen Jing Yichen talking in such a fluent way. He was so good at articting, had sharp and clear ideas and possessed an excellent knowledge of the business. He also knew the rivals well enough to have an upper hand in such a tough negotiation.
This was the man she loved!
So charismatic, so full of surprises. The more she got to know him, the deeper she loved him.
Shangguan Ning peeked at Jing Yichen who was talking with a distinct voice. He could bring down the rival with just a few sentences and looked so cool.
She identally noticed Lan Yu staring at her coldly. The way she looked at her made Shangguan Ning feel ufortable.
Shangguan Ning hadnt paid attention to her earlier, but this moment onwards, she started to watch her carefully.
It seemed that she had note to negotiate but rather just to watch the show.
The negotiation went on for more than an hour and during that time Lan Yu kept staring at her. She looked away from Shangguan Ning whenever their eyes met.
But the more she acted in this way, the more suspicious Shangguan Ning became.
Even Jing Yichen who was engrossed in the negotiation noticed that something was wrong. He looked at Lan Yu fiercely and then stopped giving her any further attention.
They didnt achieve a breakthrough that afternoon but atleast broke the ice.
Lu Qing had been following these negotiations for a long time, and he was quite pleased with the level that they reached today. A smile hovered on his usually serious face, because the financial arm of Jingsheng Enterprise had been dead during Jing Zhongxius time and no one had been able to solve the issue. Jing Yichen, however, had managed to find a crack in the stone wall. With this opening, Jingsheng was capable enough to create a big hole and enter.
After the negotiations, Jing Yichen left with Shangguan Ning and his team. There were only four people from Family Ji left in the tea house.
Ji Jiameng and Ji Ling did not get along with each other, but they had the same father so they had a basic mutual understanding among themselves. They had no right to make decisions in the financial business, so they thought that they could coborate with Jingsheng to fight against Ji Bo.
Seeing them leave with unconcealed excitement, Ji Bo felt furious. But soon he calmed down C if Family Ji could not upy the entire market, they will coborate with Jingsheng and he was going to partner with Jing Yichen instead of Ji Jiameng and Ji Ling.
A few secondster, Ji Bo and his fiance Lan Yu were the only ones remaining in the teahouse.
He stood up and his strong-built body cast a shadow upon Lan Yu. You are too anxious. You shouldnt have been here today. They will notice.
Lan Yu spoke for the first time since entering the teahouse. She sounded hoarse, like a crow. What she said, gave people chills CI wont let them realise it. Today is just the start. Family Jing will die, one after another. No one can stop me! I want nothing except their lives. You will get their business and mine, as long as you can protect me at this moment.
Ji Bo was silent for a moment. His eyes flickered.
Lan Yu said suddenly, You like Shangguan Ning?
Hearing her words, Ji Bo turned his head abruptly. His handsome face looked unusually twisted and he replied coldly, Dont ask anything that you arent supposed to know about. Her family name is not Jing. Her life is not what you need.
Hehe, she seems to be fully devoted to her husband. She doesnt even look at you. Lan Yu smiled sinisterly. She was looking increasingly scary.
But that is okay, because if I take that mans life, your biggest enemy is gone, and you should thank me for it.
......
After Jing Yichen brought Shangguan Ning out of the teahouse, the five of them got in the car.
He didnt conceal anything in front of everyone and said, Tiger, go and check upon Ji Bos fiance. I dont think her real name is Lan Yu.
Tiger, who had been with Jing Yichen for so many years, had a very sharp sense of danger. He had already noticed Lan Yus weird behaviour during the negotiation.
Yes, Master. I will get down to it now!
Hearing what they said, Lu couldnt help but shout. Brother Jing, I dont like that woman either. She put drugs in everyones tea.
Shangguan Ning turned to look at Lu in surprise. Drugs in our tea? But why am I not feeling anything right now? Howe it didnt make a difference?
Lu said with head tilted, Sister Shangguan, the drug doesnt create any side effects, but it makes you send out a very strong scent. I have had it before and it tastes like flower tea!
Jing Yichen threw a look at Shangguan Ning and said, That drug is used for tracking. The scent on us wont disappear for half a month, so they can put drones in the bees that fancy that scent to locate our spots and our routines. She wants to track us.
Shangguan Ning was startled. No wonder she felt that Lan Yu looked a bit weird. But who was this woman? Why was she out to get them?
Take Lu with you wherever you go. She is very cautious and doesnt get affected by drugs. You are safer with her around.
Jing Yichen said softly. Although he had no expressions on his face, yet his heart had been totally frozen C someone hadid their eyes upon them. This was why Jing Zhongxiu had arranged Lu to be on Shangguan Nings side.
Shangguan Ning nodded cautiously. She had no idea who Lan Yu was, but she undoubtedly seemed dangerous.
Being tracked by others creeped Shangguan Ning out. She frowned and asked, Is there any solution to mask the scent?
Chapter 228 - Uncle Got Jealous
Chapter 228: Uncle Got Jealous
Lu put her hand up and answered. Yes, Sister Shangguan. Take some diarrhea pills and it would work. The scent only stays for two days. But I think that being fragrant is great, why dont you like it?
She thought for a while and her eyes widened. Oh, I see! Master Jing likes your natural scent. He wants that same scent back to make babies with you!
Oh no, Lu knew too much. She would be killed.
Sure enough, when they came to the next crossing, Jing Yichen said, You three, get off the car now and go back to thepany yourselves.
Tiger naturally obeyed Jing Yichens order. Lu Qing didnt protest either. But Lu didnt want to leave Shangguan Ning and had to be dragged down by Tiger.
With only Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning in the car, he felt the world quieten down.
Shangguan Ning felt a bit guilty. Just take them to thepany. They will need to get a taxi if you abandon them here.
Jing Yichen smiled and said, You think that they would be abandoned? Tiger has a group of people around and someone wille and pick them up within the next three minutes. Dont worry about them, think about your husband instead.
Shangguan Ning threw a look at him and asked in confusion, What is wrong with you?
We went to the hospital yesterday. Have you forgotten everything already?
Shangguan Nings face got increasingly hot. Seeing Jing Yichen driving straight to Family Mus Hospital, she couldnt help but ask. You can go alone, I wont follow you.
Thats not reasonable. I am not the only one who wants a baby. As a wife, you must keep mepany. Otherwise I would get very scared.
Shangguan Ning felt helpless. When did Jing Yichen start to act like a pitiful man? Scared? This was ridiculous!
Shangguan Ning still followed him to the hospital. Mu Qing had already arranged the medicine for them.
But he frowned and sniffed the air the moment they came in. Surprised, he said. Who made you drink that? The Tracking Scent?
Jing Yichen said calmly, Someone who is not supposed to live long enough.
Mu Qing shook his head and stopped asking any more questions. Then he excused himself and walked out. A momentter, he came back in with two red oral liquids. Here! One for each of you. You will be fine after drinking it.
Jing Yichen took the liquid, picked up the drugs which Mu Qing had arranged for him and left with Shangguan Ning.
Jing Yichen started to drive towards home. Shangguan Ning observed the two red oral liquids and sighed. Doctor Mu is so talented. He can do anything. I have never seen any disease he cant cure.
Jing Yichen burst outughing and said, There are many diseases he cant cure. These are just small tricks. He started to learn medicine when he could talk and now he is a surgeon. If he cant even do this, then the Old Mu would disinherit him.
Shangguan Ning had never seen the legendary Old Mu before. But she knew that her life had not been saved by Mu Qing, but by his grandpa, so she was very thankful to Old Mu. Hearing Jing Yichen talking in such a fun way, sheughed.
Please take me to meet Old Mu when you have time. He saved me once, and I need to thank him in person.
Jing Yichen got displeased when he thought of Mu Wensheng. He was afraid that he would say something bad when he meets Shangguan Ning and his wonderful image would be ruined in Shangguan Nings heart. Therefore, he decided to never take Shangguan Ning to that old man who scolded everyone.
When they had almost reached Landscape Compound, Shangguan Ning received a call from Uncle Huang Lihan.
Ning, why have you stopped calling Uncle? Has anything happened?
Shangguan Ning tended to call Uncle every weekend. But after she was attacked, she hadnt contacted Huang Lihan for almost half a month. She didnt want him to know about her being injured.
Hearing Huang Lihans words, Shangguan Ning hesitated a bit.
Ah, Uncle, I have been too busy to call you. I am very well, dont worry!
Aha? So you are so strong after you married someone that you dare to lie to Uncle? You didnt tell me about you getting injured. Are you trying to make me angry? Come and let me see you myself. You better be fine, otherwise Jing Yichen would definitely have to answer for it.
Huang Lihan didnt sound pleased. Apparently, he had known about Shangguan Ning getting injured so he was very angry that she didnt tell him about it. But he didnt know that Jing Yichen had risked his life for her.
Shangguan Ning didnt want Uncle to misunderstand Jing Yichen. So she said defensively, Uncle, I am not lying to you. I just didnt want you to get worried. I am totally fine, my wounds have healed. I wille to visit you now. But you must promise me not to punish him. He was also injured, and that too because of me.
Huang Lihan got quite unhappy. How would he ever punish that man when he couldnt see him. But his niece had readily offered exnations on behalf of Jing Yichen.
Grown girls couldnt be kept. He loved and cared about her so much, but now her heart was all for Jing Yichen.
He looked at the man who was fiddling with the chess set and said unhappily with a light tutCHa, so this is the daughter I brought up for you.
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen reached Huang Lihans ce soon enough. The moment they entered the vi, they got surprised.
Dad, what are you doing here? Shangguan Ning saw the tall middle aged man next to Huang Lihan. She sounded surprised and happy.
Jing Yichen was also surprised to see Jing Zhongxiu. But he always knew that father and Huang Lihan had a good friendship so it wasnt a weird thing to see him here. He called him dad softy and then turned to Huang Lihan and said, Uncle.
Seeing his son and daughter-inw so close to him, Jing Zhongxiu was quite happy. A smile hovered over his face and he nodded to them.
Huang Lihan got quite jealous hearing how Shangguan Ning addressed Jing Zhongxiu.
Why did the child he was so devoted to, address someone else as Father whilst he was just an uncle?
Displeased, he said coldly, Aha, you dont want your Uncle when you have a father. I should have sent you to Family Jing during your childhood. I could have saved myself much trouble. All my devotion to you has be futile.
Shangguan Ning chuckled seeing her uncle getting jealous. She went up to him and held Huang Lihans arm. She said sweetly, Nonsense. I came here to visit you without knowing about dads presence. I missed you very much, but why are you so fierce towards me? I might get too scared to stay here.

Chapter 229: A Sweet Family (Part One)
Seeing his niece disying warmth and affection, Huang Lihan finally felt much better.
Jing Zhongxiu understood clearly what his old buddy wasnt happy about.
He shook his head and said jokingly, Huang, why are you so jealous of such a matter at your age, you are just going backwards.
Huang Lihans face flushed and he red at him, speaking in anger, You got a daughter for free. Thats why you can talk in such a calm way. I am concerned about my girl who got injured after marrying into your family.
He addressed Shangguan Ning as my girl when he was talking with others, because he regarded Shangguan Ning as his own daughter.
Jing Zhongxiu stayed silent when Huang Lihan mentioned that Shangguan Ning was injured because he also thought that they had not taken good care of Shangguan Ning, although he had nothing to do with it at all.
Jing Zhongxiu knew pretty well how Huang Lihan used to take care of Shangguan Ning when she was young. He cared about her in every possible way and dressed her up as a little princess. He didnt allow her to get wronged. He had also fought with his wife because of the same.
But when Shangguan Ning married to Family Jing and got injured, it was his responsibility as a father to have protected her well.
Seeing Jing Zhongxiu stay silent because of what he said, Huang Lihan finally let out a sigh of relief C no way that he would get the girl from him.
He surveyed Shangguan Ning from head and foot and saw that she waspletely fine, so he couldnt help but ask, Where is your wound? Let me see if it has healed? Does it still hurt? Better not to go to work if you are injured. Stay at home instead. You have be much thinner than before. Have you not been eating at Family Jing? How does Jing Yichen treat you?
Shangguan Ning showed him the wound on her arm to him and consoled, I have recoveredpletely. Yichen takes great care of me, dont worry. If it wasnt for him, I would have lost my life. He saved me. You mustnt me him!
The gunshot wound on her arms had healed well, leaving only a light scar. Mu Qing said that the scar of gunshot tended not to disappearpletely, but it would fade away as time went by so that it wouldnt look so conspicuous. Even Old Mu wouldnt be able to remove the scarpletely.
Shangguan Ning didnt care about the little scar, because there was a big scar on Jing Yichens chest because of her. Eveything else was minorpared to that.
Jing Yichen didnt offer any justification upon hearing Huang Lihan scolding him. Instead, he just stayed silent and listened.
Jing Zhongxiu, who was sitting on the sofa alone, felt satisfied seeing his daughter-inw defend his son.
He patted the seat next to him, telling his son to sit down.
Jing Yichen went quietly and sat next to him.
The father and son were meeting for the first time after Zhao Qings death anniversary. Nothing had changed between them, yet it seemed that everything had. They seemed to be more rxed facing each other.
The servants called them to dinner after a bit.
There was hot-pot for dinner, which was what Huang Lihan and Jing Zhongxiu enjoyed a lot. They hadnt expected that Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen would show up, otherwise they would have prepared a formal dinner.
The servants served four little hot-pots. The four of them came to the dining room and sat down to eat around a small-sized round table.
Jing Zhongxiu and Huang Lihan were now basically single men. They often got together but had never had such a lively mealtime.
Shangguan Ning kept talking. Sometimes she asked the servants to add some soup and sometimes told them to add some food. She even praised the fresh fish on the table, which had been caught by Jing Zhongxiu and Huang Lihan in the afternoon.
Jing Yichen didnt seem to behave like his haughty self. He chatted more than what he normally did. Sometimes he checked to see if Shangguan Ning was okay.
Mist came out of the four little hot-pots, and the vor of fish soup and the scent of vegetables were floating across small-sized dining room. It was a harmonious scene.
Huang Lihan had always been a talkative man. He kept chatting with Shangguan Ning whilst asking Jing Yichen and Jing Zhongxiu to eat as much as they wanted.
He was actually quite satisfied with Jing Yichen, but he just felt a bit jealous seeing his niece leaning towards his side. He suggested drinking wine at dinner, and Jing Zhongxiu who almost never touched alcohol was forced to drink several cups with him as well.
As the spicy and fragrant white wine went down, Jing Zhongxiu started to loosen up in the happy atmosphere. He even started to argue with Huang Lihan about which of them had caught more fish today.
I got seven, you got only six. I got one more than you did, so I should eat more. This dish is mine now. You better wait!
No way, Jing, you mustnt cheat! I got seven, you got six. Your memory is too poor to remember it clearly just after a few hours. You better eat more fish brain. Huang Lihan said as he put a fish head into Jing Zhongxius little hot-pot and then grabbed the remaining fish from his side.
I never remember wrong. You do! I got one more than you did at the very beginning and you failed to catch up with me.
You did at the beginning, but I caught up and even surpassed you. You have remembered wrong, so it must be I who caught more fish!
No, I did!
I did!
...
Jing Yichen stared at the two men who were arguing over a fish in surprise. It was such a funny scene.
He never knew that his father could be childish sometimes. It was just a matter of few fish, and his father, who was an affluent man, had seen every kind of them. But at this moment, he had started to reconstruct the scene and use theories to prove that he caught one more fish than Huang Lihan.
But Shangguan Ning didnt think that there was anything wrong with them arguing with each other. She knew her uncle well and she knew that he liked to take everything seriously. As for Jing Zhongxiu, she didnt think that it was weird for him to argue with Huang Lihan on this topic, either.
First she was a spectator for the argument of the two seniors, then she became the judge listening carefully to what they said about the situation in the afternoon, so that she could decide who got more fish.
Jing Yichen became totally speechless seeing them argue fiercely over this topic.
Chapter 230 - A Sweet Family (Part Two)
Chapter 230: A Sweet Family (Part Two)
How could these people be so childish? Anyway, they were wee to continue with the argument, he would finish the fish as soon as possible. Honestly, fish was the only dish on that table which was almost okay for his taste.
After a long argument, it was eventually concluded that Jing Zhongxiu had caught one fish more than Huang Lihan did.
Jing Zhongxiu was very happy that he beat Huang Lihan. He was feeling proud so he gave the newly-sliced fish to Shangguan Ning and said, Ning, here is the fish I got. Eat as much as you can.
Huang Lihan lost in the end, but he didnt want to yield. Instead, he said, Ning, here is the fish I got, eat as much as you.
Shangguan Ning took both the tes and threw one portion into her hot-pot and the other into Jing Yichens on the sly. She said clearly, Thanks, Dad, thanks Uncle.
Then she praised them that they were very skilled at fishing and both of them got quite satisfied even though they hadnt eaten much.
Huang Lihan had not been so happy since he divorced Lin Yu. He not only had his beloved niece beside him today, but also his old buddy whose son had be his nieces caring husband. He felt very satisfied.
Jing Zhongxiu was also quite happy and cheerful today. He had been more dismal than Huang Lihan, because he had not had such a happy and lively meal post his beloved wife left him.
Also, thanks to Shangguan Ning, his son was getting more outgoing and was no longer so isted. Their decade old, frozen rtionship had also begun to thaw.
He hoped that the four of them could have more get-together and eat around this small-sized round table.
Huang Lihan had been a good friend to Jing Zhongxiu for so many years that they shared the same ideas. But Huang Lihan was more open and usually spoke what he thought. Therefore, he said happily, Ning,e to my home for food each week with Yichen, Jing... your dad can be here too. Look at us sitting together, we are a family. It is fixed then, your dad and I will get the fish and you two just sit and eat!
Both Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen liked the current feeling. They exchanged a look and nodded at the same time.
Done, Uncle! You can go fishing with dad more often so that we can enjoy the fish banquet again. I remember eating twice when I was little, but I havent eaten any after I grew up!
No problem! It is fixed then. But you ate more than two fish banquets when you were young, at least four or five times, right, Jing?
Yes, should be four times. She always said that the fish we got, had too many bones and she would not want to eat more. But every time she would eat so much that we had to stop her in case she got too full. Jing Zhongxiu nodded.
A smile spread over his face when he thought of the young Shangguan Ning.
Ah? Shangguan Ning was confused. So she had met Jing Zhongxiu several times, but she had no memory of it. She only remembered meeting him once.
Jing Zhongxiu understood her confusion. Suddenly, he burst outughing. You naturally dont remember me. You had your eyes fixed upon the fish rather than me.
Huang Lihanughed along. They started to talk about the fun things that had happened with a young Shangguan Ning, which interested Jing Yichen a great deal. He listened attentively andughed along everytime that they narrated something funny.
As they were talking, Shangguan Ning suddenly thought of an idea. She asked Huang Lihan instantly, Uncle, I have decided to find you a partner. What kind of women do you like?
A slice of fish got stuck in his throat and he choked on it. Jing Zhongxiu couldnt help but burst intoughter sitting next to him.
Huang, Ning is very filial. She cares deeply about you!
Huang Lihan picked up a ss of water and gulped it down. His aged face flushed as he shook his head. Dont mess around with me. I am living a happy life without anyone controlling me. I feel free. Dont mention this ever again!
It was so embarrassing. What did he, a middle aged man, need a partner for? Jing Zhongxiu wasughing at him, all through.
Shangguan Ning didnt think that it was anything to be embarrassed about. She just wanted to find someone who could keep Unclepany and take care of him. But she didnt expect that he and Jing Zhongxiu would react in such dramatically opposite ways.
But Shangguan Ning didnt insist when Huang Lihan spoke so seriously.
Thy finished the hot-pot happily and then started to y cards.
However, President Jing Yichen had no idea how to y them.
Shangguan Ning finally found out what this genius couldnt do.
Jing Yichen could drive the fastest car, invade the highest-level cyber system, could even speak a dozen foreignnguages and of course he was a master at handling an enormous business empire. But he couldnt y cards.
Jing Zhongxiu finally realized that he must havecked in educating his son on recreational activities and had only managed to teach him the tough educational things.
But Jing Yichen was smarter than all of them. After the first round itself, he got a good understanding of the game. He started to win from there on.
The entire night, Jing Zhongxiu and Huang Lihan kept losing money. Shangguan Ning teamed up with Jing Yichen and held the deck of money which Jing Yichen won. She almost got tired of counting the money but happiness shown out of her eyes.
Laughter burst out in the living room of the vi every now and then. Sometimes Huang Lihan and Jing Zhongxiu argued, because they kept ming each other for not cooperating well. As a result, Jing Yichen kept winning.
It was already eleven when they finished ying. Since it waste and both Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen had had some wine, they stayed back at Huang Lihans vi.
Shagguan Ning went to freshen up whilst Huang Lihan instructed the servants to get the rooms ready.
Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen were the only people left in the living room.
Jing Yichen had thought about talking with his father during the past few days and now they happened to have some free time.
He told Jing Zhongxiu about Lan Yu and then asked, Did you suspect that someone is nning something bad? Is that why you have arranged for Lu to be Nings assistant?
Chapter 231 - The Bizarre Death (Part One)
Chapter 231: The Bizarre Death (Part One)
Jing Zhongxiu didnt deny it. He stayed calm and said in a rtively rxed way, There are many forces who have their eyes upon us, even the government and the army. If it werent for our nning and power, many people would have already attacked us. Now Ning has be their target. That is why I have put Lu with her. She will be fine.
Family Jing was a tremendously wealthy family, and even a small part of their properties would be attractive for many people.
Their family had been in business for hundreds of years with each aspect connected tightly to the other and it was hard to shake any part. Out of the two highest-level deputy presidents of Family Jing, one was the grandson of a high positioned leader and the other was the son-inw of a cadre. As for the other deputy presidents, they all had strong backgrounds. Family Jing had taken each aspect into consideration.
Ji Bos fiance, Lan Yu whom you talked about, seems to havee from nowhere. But judging from the current situation of Family Ji which has problem both inside and outside, they wouldnt allow a nameless woman to marry their excellent heir. You better check her background.
Jing Yichen nodded and spoke after a moment of silence. Can she be from Family Yang?
Jing Zhongxiu looked cold and bit cruel in the bright light. Family Yang wanted to take action against us ages ago. They even tried to hit us three years ago and took away resources worth tens of billions of yuan from us. They have been ruined right now, but many of them are still atrge. We better cut off their roots as soon as we can. If she is really from Family Yang, then she will have to face death. As for Yang Wenshu, my men have found her in South Korea and she will be brought back in a couple of days in front of Ning.
Jing Yichen nodded in approval. Yang Wenshu had forced her mother to die. This woman had to be given to Shangguan Ning to deal with. Ning was definitely not going to let her die so easily.
Family Yang is in a precarious situation right now. Their remaining people are struggling. You and Ning must be very careful. Our moles at Family Ji told us that they are nning something, so they cant be ignored either.
Jing Zhongxiu had not nned to say these words, because he knew that Jing Yichen was more cautious than him and had been paying attention to the move of those famous families in A City. But he couldnt help himself today, probably because he had drunk some wine or maybe because his son wasnt pushing him away right now.
Jing Yichen felt warm in his heart, because his father hardly ever spoke and almost never showed his concern to him. At this moment, however, he was willing to do both.
The father and the son talked for some more time and exchanged some information about the powerful families in the country.
Shangguan Ning put her arms around his neck the moment Jing Yichen came to the room. She asked happily, What did the two of you talk about for such a long time?
Looking at both of them chattingfortably, she felt very happy inside her heart. Real father and son should not hate each other for so long, despite the death of an important woman. Sitting in Heaven, Zhao Qing might not want to see her son and husband so distant from each other. She must also be wishing that the father and son could get along well with each other.
Jing Yichen didnt want Shangguan Ning to hear about those dangerous things. So, he said, Nothing, it was just about work.
Shangguan Ning didnt ask anything else. She found a set of clothes which Huang Lihan had not worn before and urged him to freshen up.
The following day, the four of them got up early and soon went their own way after breakfast.
Shangguan Ning realized that Jing Yiran who was always in her office wasnt there this morning. She was happy to see that but soon got to know the reason for it.
Zhang Rong was in a car ident the previous night and had passed away.
Jing Yichen looked grim. He turned around ready to leave. I need to go home.
Shangguan Ning held his arm and said with a heavy look, I wille along as well!
They got to know about the entire episode on their way and arrived at Family Jing soon.
Zhang Rong, who barely went out, unexpectedly had driven outst night after receiving a call. Then her car banged against a speeding car on the Bay Highway and both cars were destroyed. The two drivers were sent to the hospital straight away but they still died within an hour.
At the time of the ident, Zhang Rong wasnt carrying any ID with her and her phone also got destroyed in the ident. The hospital couldnt find the family of the dead woman until seven in the following morning. Jing Yiran had gone to the hospital to identify the body.
What was peculiar was that the way Zhang Rong died was exactly the same as how Zhao Qing had died years back. They almost died at the same time of the day.
Zhang Rongs body was not cremated. Instead, it was brought back to Family Jing by Jing Yiran and ced in a mourning hall outside the graveyard of Family jing.
Jing Zhongxiu, Jing Tianyuan and Mo Lan who had juste back from a trip abroad looked solemn. It was confirmed that the body was Zhang Rongs.
When Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning arrived, the servants of Family Jing were carrying Zhang Rongs body into a ck cremation car.
Jing Yiran had no tears in his eyes. But he looked scarily pale as if the pain inside his heart was going to burst out at any moment.
Seeing Jing Yichening towards him, he threw himself upon him as a mad man and started to punch him in the face.
Jing Yichen was faster than Jing Yiran. He dodged his attack and then punched him right back.
Jing Yiran fell down but got up quickly and threw himself at Jing Yichen without a care.
Jing Yichen frowned and then kicked him away uncourteously.
Lying on the ground in pain, Jing Yiran had blooding out of his lip and bellowed angrily with hands over his chest. It is you who killed my mother. No one else would have done it. You are taking revenge. I will not forgive you. I will kill you!
Everyone standing there got startled. But Jing Yichen had no expression on his face. He spoke in a cold voice, She killed an innocent woman ages ago and lived such afortable life for so many years. She should have died earlier. Same for you, if you want to keep herpany, I can make your wishe true now!
He didnt exin that he had nothing to do with Zhang Rongs death. Instead, he was making everyone think of him as the killer.
Chapter 232 - The Bizarre Death (Part Two)
Chapter 232: The Bizarre Death (Part Two)
Shangguan Ning held Jing Yichen back. She said to Jing Yiran coldly, Yichen has nothing to do with this matter. Dont talk nonsense. He didnt need to wait for so many years to kill your mother. We can understand your feelings right now, but be rational. Dont get blinded by hatred!
But Jing Yiran couldnt hear anything this moment. He was certain that Jing Yichen was taking revenge for Zhao Qing, otherwise the way his mother died couldnt have been so simr to the way had Zhao Qing died.
Heughed wildly, sounding extremely angry. Then he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Mo Lan ran to his side and cried out. Ran, dont scare me, are you alright? Doctor,e and check him up. What is wrong with him?
Jing Yiran pushed her away and stood on his feet. He threw a furious look at Jing Yichen and then staggered towards the door.
Stop right there! Jing Zhongxiu bellowed, frowning. Come back here, now. Stay put at home! You mustnt go anywhere before the truth is discovered.
Jing Yichen had been with him the entire night, and judging from his personality, he didnt care about taking revenge from Zhang Rong. Shangguan Ning was right, if Jing Yichen had meant to kill Zhang Rong, she would not have lived a stable life for so many years.
He believed that Zhang Rongs death had nothing to do with Jing Yichen, but Jing Yiran was apparently blinded by the hatred and grief.
Zhang Rong had a bizarre death. The moment Jing Zhongxiu heard about it, he knew that it couldnt have been an ident or a coincidence. Someone had made it happen.
Many people of A City knew about Zhao Qings death, so it wasnt a difficult thing to duplicate it. The difficult part was to trick Zhang Rong, who barely went out, into driving out in the middle of the night.
Jing Zhongxiu felt no grief towards Zhang Rongs death, because for him, Zhang Rong had been a torment. Sometimes, he himself had wanted to choke the woman who drove his wife to death.
But she was the mother to his other son, and he couldnt let both his sons lose their mothers.. That was why he had been tolerant towards her.
But how dare someone try and kill her.
Jing Zhongxiu was a formidable and influential man. Although Jing Yiran was furious enough to kill someone, he ceased his steps upon hearing his fathers words.
The bodyguards in ck of Family Jing gripped his arms and shoulders, preventing him from going out. Then they brought him back to the vi on Jing Zhongxius orders.
Jing Yiran struggled but failed. He looked at Jing Yichen with bloodshot eyes and spoke through clenched teeth. You are the murderer. I will definitely find the evidence and kill you. You cant escape!
Jing Yichen didnt even bother looking at him. He sneered. You and your mother should not have lived in Family Jing. It is my ce! A woman who got pregnant on the sly should have gone away a long time ago! Even if you live here, you wont be buried in Family Jings graveyard after you die, because you dont belong here!
Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran had been on bad terms with each other forever. There had already been many asions when they didnt spare each others reputations and swore at each other. Mo Lan could never stop them whilst Jing Tianyuan never cared.
Jing Tianyuan did not want to keep Jing Yiran in Zhang Rongs stomach years back, because Family Jing had already got Jing Yichen as the heir and no more heirs were needed. Family Jing had had one son each time throughout three generations. They were flourishing with one heir, so one more might have led to disaster not happiness. But Mo Lan stuck to her idea and wanted to keep the child after knowing that Zhang Rong had a boy in her stomach. It was because of this reason that the entire mess was created in the first ce.
Although Old Lord Jing spoiled Jing Yiran a great deal, yet he only had Jing Yichen as the heir in his mind. He had no respect for Zhang Rong who had gotten pregnant with evil tricks. Her death was probably a good thing for Family Jing. Also, Jing Yichen was right, Zhang Rong was definitely not going to be buried in Family Jings graveyard.
Everyone was already used to this situation except for Shangguan Ning.
She was just unustomed but she was not objecting. What she didnt expect was that Jing Yichen could be the kind to surpass Jing Yiran in swearing.
She was Jing Yichens wife and of course she would support her own husband. Zhang Rong had gotten pregnant with Jing Zhongxius baby in a shameful manner and hade to the family when her belly got big. It had caused a huge row between Jing Zhongxiu and Zhao Qing and then she died. Also, she kept nning to get her son to rece Jing Yichen to obtain all the properties that belonged to him. It was reasonable that Jing Yichen hated her, and it wouldnt be over the top even if he got her killed. It was already kind of him to have tolerated her for so many years.
Anyone else would have killed Zhang Rong right away!
Jing Yiran was taken away by the bodyguards and only Shangguan Ning remained. Mo Lan stayed there and watched her grandson going out of his sight.
Shagguan Ning went up to help her up as she said lightly, Grandma, dont worry. Our men are with him and he will be fine. He is just too furious to ept the truth right now, but he will be fine in a couple of days.
Shangguan Ning had not understood why when Mo Lan cared about Jing Yichen so much, he still was so distant, or even cold with her at times.
Now she did. It was the olddys stubbornness that had broken the perfect family apart. She wanted more children in Family Jing to take care of each other so that the family could be more powerful. But her wishes didnt get realized. She had caused Jing Zhongxiu to live in guilt and pain for decades.
She would not have felt close to Mo Lan in Jing Yichens position, either.
Shangguan Ning wasnt feeling too kind towards the olddy herself but she was, after all the seniordy in the family and looked quite pitiful at the moment. That was why the soft-hearted girl went up to console her.
Mo Lan also regretted the decision she had made earlier.
Chapter 233 - The Old Man Who Could Read Fate
Chapter 233: The Old Man Who Could Read Fate
Mo Lan had been ming herself for many years. She didnt know what had possessed her all those years ago to want to keep Zhang Rongs pregnancy intact.
Everything had started to get out of hand because of it. The warm and lovely atmosphere at home was destroyed overnight. Her noble daughter-inw died and her sons inws cut off rtionship with herpletely. Her legendary son changed overnight and refused to exchange a word with her or call her mother. Even her husband stayed away from her for a very long time, saying that she might bring disaster for Family Jing.
As time went by, her husbands words turned out to be true. The grandchildren of Family Jing were never on good terms with each other and even wanted to kill each other on various asions. Jing Yiran was unsatisfied with the properties which he had been given and always tried to extract more from Jing Yichens share of inheritance. Due to rumours about the family, stock price of Jingsheng Enterprise kept fluctuating all the time. Luckily, Jing Yichen was capable enough to keep the situation in control so that the enterprise didnt run into any crisis.
With her hands on Shangguan Nings shoulder, Mo Lan tried to raise herself up and spoke in undertones, It was my mistake all those years ago...
Zhang Rongs funeral was held the following day but was not publicised.
Her identity had never been announced in the society. Most people only knew the deceased Zhao Qing as Mrs. Jing. Jing Zhongxiu had never epted Zhang Rong as his wife. For him, she was nothing more than the mother of Second Master of Family Jing.
The funeral proceedings were extremely simple. She was not eligible to be buried in the Family Jings graveyard so her ashes ended up in a public graveyard in A City.
No one from Family Jing except for Mo Lan and Jing Yiran attended her funeral.
Jing Tianyuan always thought that she was the scourge of Family Jing and had never epted her as his daughter-inw. He was the eldest member of Family Jing and was not willing topromise on the familys prestige for her, even if she was the mother of his grandson.
Jing Zhongxiu didnt attend the funeral either. He felt nothing except hatred towards Zhang Rong. Instead, he went to Zhao Qings grave and let out a sigh of relief C the woman who had caused his wifes death was finally dead, although he hadnt been her killer.
Jing Yichen certainly wouldnt have gone, same with Shangguan Ning who followed her husbands suit. She didnt want to create trouble for herself.
When Jing Zhongxiu came back from Family Jings graveyard, he asked Jing Yichen toe to the study and spoke with him all the way till midnight. Even the old lord Jing Tianyuan joined them. They held an intense discussion in the study.
The Butler understood that something serious was going on. So he asked all of the servants and bodyguards to wait outside the vi.
Usually, Jing Yichen would be the only one to handle the problems no matter how huge the issue might be, and he was capable enough to deal with majority of the crisis.
Jing Zhongxiu would offer supplementary help every now and then, or help him to handle some business when he was too busy to deal with everything. Jing Yiran was, on the other hand, a free man who wasnt involved with the Family business. For example, when he heard about Jing Yichen getting injured, he didnt interfere in it at all. Instead, he left everything to Jing Zhongxiu.
Jing Zhongxiu brought up Jing Yichen, and Jing Tianyuan had brought up Jing Zhongxiu. So he waspletely assured when his son and his grandson were in charge.
But this time it was an extremely serious matter, because even the old lord interfered.
Shangguan Ning, who was seated in the living room, could also sense the intensity in the air. But she was not able to guess what was the reason despite her current understanding of Family Jing.
What she did know was that Zhang Rongs death couldnt have been an ident.
Although the police office and the hospital confirmed the car ident as a normal ident caused by the violent crash after the brakes broke, yet it happened way too suddenly and too unreasonably to be an ident.
After the discussion, the three men of Family Jing walked out of the study, only to find Shangguan Ning fast asleep, having waited for them for so long.
Not willing to wake her up, the Butler had asked the servant to get her a nket.
Jing Yichens heart hurt a little when he saw her sleeping ufortably on the sofa. Ignoring his father and grandfather, he picked up his wife and walked out.
Shangguan Ning was a light sleeper. She woke up instantly when he took her into his arms.
She was about to say something when she found herself in Jing Yichens arms with Jing Tianyuan and Jing Zhongxiu looking at them with a smile on their faces.
Embarrassed, Shangguan Ning said anxiously, Put me down!
Jing Yichen ignored her words and continued to walk.
Seeing his grandson caring so much about his wife, Jing Tianyuan smiled. He is indeed a lucky man to find such a good wife. Ning has a good personality and a good fate, a perfect match for Yichen!
Jing Zhongxiu agreed with his father and said, Ning is very nice. Yichen has changed so much because of her. But since when did you start believing in fate? What do you know about it?
Jing Tianyuan didnt mind his sons disbelieving tone. Instead, he said proudly, I know everything that is going on in this world. I have been studying Yi Ching for decades. You wont understand now, but you will when you are at my age!
Hearing him praise himself, Jing Zhongxiu couldnt help butugh. Then tell me how will our Family Jing fare? You might save trouble for all of us by enlightening us about our future.
The old lord red at him and said unhappily, Do I need to check about our family? We will definitely be top-notch. The old ancestors had said long ago that Family Jing was going to be prosperous for generations, and we are one of the most promising generation of all! What we are facing now is nothing. I had seeded in the siege of dozens of families years ago and now we have only got four or five families around us. Dont worry! You can leave it to Yichen. He can handle everything. If not, then he better go back home to father several more children and we can cultivate younger ones as the new sessor!
Having said the words, he started to walk outside before Jing Zhongxiu could say anything.
He walked as he mumbled. Jesus, so bad that I have to go to bedte tonight again! I will not exceed Mu Wensheng in lifespan. That demon wants to live till 150 years old and I will only ask for 149, alright? Yeah, I will move to his ce tomorrow, and all my grey hair may turn into ck like his.
Jing Zhongxiu helplessly watched his 80-year-old father spring out of the living room. He shook his head and started to turn towards his own bedroom.
The old lord was right. Jing Yichen was 34 years old and he should be a father. Why has nothing happened when they were already married for half a year? Should he give them some reminders?
Chapter 234 - No Peace at Home
Chapter 234: No Peace at Home
After the funeral, only Mo Lan returned to Family Jing. Jing Yiran was nowhere to be seen.
His men reported to Jing Zhongxiu about the happenings at the funeral.
Lord, Second Master said that everyone in the family is the murderer, and he is going to kill thedys murderer.
The bodyguard, dressed in ck, who conveyed the message was panicking. He was afraid that Jing Zhongxiu would get very furious.
Jing Zhongxiu looked calm on the surface, but sounded really cold. Get him back. Why does he have to fall for such an obvious trap? Shame on him! Once he is back, he will be grounded for half a year.
Jing Yiran was found by the bodyguards in a popr bar. He was clinging to a hot girl, dancing in the swimming pool. He was still wearing his trademark sinister smile as if nothing out of ordinary had happened.
Second Master, pleasee home with us. The bodyguard-in-lead whispered in his ears, courteously. Despite the politeness, he still sounded quite intimidating as if he would use force if Jing Yiran didnt follow him.
Jing Yiran was looking like a typical wealthy boy and put his arm upon the bodyguard like he was his buddy. Oh yeah? Am I not allowed to rx when my mother died? Must I stay at home to do the filial deeds for her? It is much more fun here than at home. There is no murderer here, only beautiful girls. I am going to be here for a while. When I get bored, I will return. Tell them not to worry!
The beautiful girl next to him got frightened upon hearing what he said. She was aghast that he was partying when his mother had just died. She slipped away quietly without even saying goodbye.
See, you rude people! You scared away my beauty. Who will keep mepany in bed tonight, huh? Jing Yiran said in a flirty manner to the bodyguard.
The bodyguard-in-chief was already used to this dandy side of Jing Yiran. Without changing his expression, he said in a low voice, Sorry, Second Master. Then he ordered his men to carry him out.
Jing Yiran didnt struggle or protest. He was still smiling, yet his eyes were cold, creating a conspicuous contrast with the smile on his face.
Mo Lan walked upto Jing Yiran as soon as he entered the living room. She had been worried about him ever since he disappeared earlier in the day. She was scared that he would do something stupid because of Zhang Rongs death. Seeing him back intact, she let out a sigh of relief.
She had raised Jing Yiran all by herself. Because of his identity, Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan had not had any feelings towards him post his birth until he was seven or eight years old. That was when they started to ept him little by little.
Mo Lan paid much more attention to Jing Yiran than to Jing Yichen when she was bringing up the boy. She was worried about everything C he might fall, he might feel cold and he might starve, so she kept indulging him all the time. Mo Lan favored him whenever he was bullied by Jing Yichen.
Mo Lans heart was hurting for him even now because she could see the pain and fury in his eyes after his mothers death.
Ran, where were you? It is sote now. Go to your room and try to sleep. Dont think about anything. I will help you and wont let anything happen to you.
She held his arms and pulled him down on the sofa. Then she asked the servant to bring a food tray in front of him.
He hadnt slept or eaten in the entire day. Even the strongest man needed sustenance.
I told the servants to make your favorite yam porridge. Eat one bowl and dont drink anymore alright? Very bad for the health...
Mo Lan kept nagging him but Jing Yiran didnt ept her care. He suddenly burst into a wildughter and then flipped the tray containing the porridge and the exquisite dishes on the floor. Bowls and tes ttered on the ground, spilling the food in the entire room.
Startled, Mo Lan took a step backwards.
Dont want anything to happen to me? Alright then, kill the Elder Master of Family Jing. Where is he? Is he so scared that he ran away? Is he scared of me killing him?
Jing Yiran bellowed crazily standing in the living room.
Mo Lan knew that Zhang Rongs death was not an ident. But she did not believe that Jing Yichen was the culprit. He was an arrogant man, and would have admitted had hemitted the crime.
She was distressed seeing Jing Yiran behave in this manner. Chen has nothing to do with it! Are you stupid enough to suspect your own brother? Someone is setting a trap to cause misunderstanding between the two of you. You mustnt fall for that!
Jing Yiran flung off Mo Lans hands disdainfully. Mo Lan was in her 70s and was not strong enough to handle his force. She fell onto the ground and hurt her knees. Blood came out and she cried out in pain.
Startled, the Butler who had never expected that Jing Yiran would push the olddy with such force, immediately spoke with the doctor through the walkie-talkie, ignoring Jing Yiran who was smashing things like a mad man.
Then he went up to the olddy, Lady, are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere? I have called the doctor. He is on his way!
Mo Lan nodded in pain, I am fine, Lu. Take care of Ran so he doesnt hurt himself.
Jing Yiran smashed all the cups and vases in the living room. He even smashed the chairs and tables as he cursed andughed alongside.
I am mad? No! It is you who are mad to believe him. No one believes me. We are currently in a situation where either he or I will die. Peace? My mother is dead, and you will never have peace in the family. I will do everything without your help, so Family Jing will never- ever- be C in C peace!!
He said each word with hatred and he bellowed furiously. The phrase never-ever-be-in-peace echoed across the entire vi group.
Jing Zhongxiu came out of the bedroom, frowning. He bellowed from the top, Enough! Shut up now. Go to your room! Any more misbehaviour and you will never be allowed in Family Jing again!
That was when he saw an injured Mo Lan lying on the ground. Outraged, he went downstairs, and pped Jing Yiran hard on his face and pushed him towards the broken porcin pieces.
It was the first time that Jing Zhongxiu had pped Jing Yiran since he was born.
Chapter 235 - A Bone Between Them
Chapter 235: A Bone Between Them
Bastard, kneel down and apologize to your grandma!
Jing Zhongxiu got extremely furious. The blue veins popped on his forehead and he didnt show any mercy when he pped Jing Yiran. He had pped Jing Yichen many times because of different reasons, but Jing Yiran was the spoiled one. He had never pped him even once.
But he was truly furious at the moment and wanted to p Jing Yiran again.
Jing Yiran was brought up by Mo Lan and she had put in so much effort into his upbringing. But he still dared to hurt her!
She was Jing Zhongxius mother, and even though their rtionship had deteriorated after Zhao Qings death, yet she was the mother who gave birth to him and brought him up. She made a mistake regarding the situation with Zhang Rong, but she still cared deeply about him. She had been taking care of Family Jing for her entire life and she was the person to be respected most of all!
He wouldnt allow anyone to hurt her.
She had lived till the age of seventy-nine and had never been injured. Even the old lord had never hurt a single strand of her hair.
Jing Yiran felt pain all over his body as he was kicked on the ground andnded on the broken dishes and bowls. He felt as if his bones were broken and he failed to get up.
Fearing that her son would get furious again, Mo Lan stood up with the Butlers help and stopped him. Dont hit him, Zhongxiu! He is just sad and pushed me off by ident. He didnt mean to do it!
Jing Zhongxiu frowned when he saw his silver-haired mother pleading to him with her bloodied knees.
He picked his mother up from the waist, walked to the sofa and put her down. Then he said to the doctor who had been called, in a cold tone, Dress her wound, and check her for any other injury, thoroughly. Make sure that everything is fine with her.
Jing Yiran got up from the floor at this moment. Blood was trickling out of his lip and he had blood stains across the body. He looked like a mess.
He staggered to Mo Lan and kneeled down and said in a hoarse voice, I am so sorry Grandma! I am a bad grandson to have hurt you. Please, hit me as hard as you can.!
With those words, tears came out of his eyes.
Jing Yiran knew that Mo Lan was the person who loved him most of all in the entire Family Jing, even the deceased Zhang Ronghadnt taken care of him as much as she did. He felt really guilty to have hurt her, but was buried under in such grief and hatred that he didnt understand what he had done until it was toote.
Seeing her grandson covered with wounds, Mo Lan felt pain in her heart. She took him into her arms and said tearfully, My dear boy, I ampletely fine. I know you are sad and you didnt mean to hurt me. Doctor, check Ran, first! He is bleeding so much.
Jing Zhongxiu finally rxed seeing Jing Yiran apologizing to his mother sincerely. He turned around to walk back to his room after confirming with the doctor that the olddy was fine.
Three dayster, Jing Yichen found out the truth about Zhang Rongs ident.
Zhang Rong was a woman who barely went out. After she had moved to Family Jing, she cut connection with nearly all her old friends. For one thing, most of her friends were too poor to follow her around and she just didnt like those people. For another, her friends didnt like her either. Although she was married into a wealthy family but they didnt know whom she had married. They just knew that she wasnt respected in that family.
Those who were in contact with Zhang Rong were women with very high positions. These women were the lovers of some powerful men, some had children, some didnt. But all of them lived a very wealthy but unsatisfied life C like her, they wanted to get to a higher position using their appearance or their children. Zhang Rong was a leader amongst them.
On the night of the ident, Zhang Rong drove out because she received a distress call from one of them.
Although the woman who made the call killed herself after the ident, yet Jing Yichen understood that she had made the call under duress.
The car that crashed into Zhang Rongs had been used only for the purpose of ambushing hers.
The entire n was perfect and the nner even left some clues that pointed at Jing Yichen. So as far as they could see, Jing Yiran believed these clues and tried to reduce Jing Yichens power every single day.
Apparently, the nners purpose was to take advantage of the dispute between Jing Yiran and Jing Yichen so that they could turn against each other and kill themselves and Family Jing could be destroyed internally.
One person alone couldnt have done this. Jing Yichen found out that four families had been involved in the ident except for Family Yang, whom he had been suspecting.
Everyone at Family Yang had hidden themselves somewhere, or changed their names and identities. They were waiting for the right moment to take action.
Jing Yichen was not scared. That is what Family Jing had always faced. There were many powers that looked at Family Jing and the addition of Family Yang would not matter that much. They had not been a match for Family Jing when they were at their peak. Hence, they didnt have a chance now when they were already half demolished.
The four families that were involved with Zhang Rongs ident had had problems with Family Jing in the past. They had hated Family Jing for a very long time. But Jing Yichen destroyed them all at one go. Some of them were either in prison, or killed themselves or ran away. Their families were also destroyed within no time!
Another violent turbulence shook A City, creating an atmosphere of suspicion.
How Jing Yichen dealt with his enemies was also getting more and more spread in A City. He was being considered as The Killer God!
Yet this mysterious and cold Killer God was washing his lovely wifes feet with a gentle expression at the moment.
Shangguan Ning was on her period and didnt want to take a shower. So Jing Yichen got a tub of hot water and added an herb to it as prescribed by Mu Qing, to warm her feet.
Does your belly still hurt?
Shangguan Ning shook her head as she leaned back into the sofa. No, it doesnt. Doctor Mus medicine works so well. Please thank him for me.
She often got tormented by her periods in the past. She would need to take pain-killer to stop the pain. But she had been using the herbs prescribed by Mu Qing for the past three months consecutively and now she didnt feel the pain any more. She really wanted to name Mu Qing as the magical doctor.
Jing Yichen massaged the center of her sole and said gently, No need, thats what he should do.
He had invested billions of yuan in Family Mus Hospital and it was Mu Qings duty to prescribe medicine for his wife.
Oh, yes. Anan ising back tomorrow. Lets go and pick her up. Should we also take Doctor Mu along?
Chapter 236 - Zhao Anan at the Airport
Chapter 236: Zhao Anan at the Airport
Jing Yichen knew what his wife meant. She still thought that Mu Qing and Zhao Anan looked good together.
He said calmly, No need. It is impossible between him and Anan.
As a matter of fact, Shangguan Ning had guessed that as well. Mu Qing was the outstanding heir of Family Mu and he was going to be the backbone of the family. He could choose whichever woman he wanted to marry, but he couldnt marry a woman who might be infertile.
She sighed and found that it was quite pitiful. She had always thought that Mu Qing and Zhao Anan were well suited.
Seeing Jing Yichen who was massaging her feet attentively, Shangguan Ning couldnt help but feel quite satisfied. She had never thought that she would meet such a perfect man who would cherish her like the most precious treasure.
She always thought that men were meant to be powerful businessmen who needed to be taken care of by the wives at home rather than the other way around.
Jing Yichen did both. She didnt need to worry about his business, nor did she need to worry about home. He had been taking care of her carefully and patiently, sheltering her against the rain and wind.
How lucky she was!
Seeing her silent, Jing Yichen looked up and asked softly, What is it?
Shangguan Ning held his neck and her eyshes fluttered. Nothing, I just... feel lucky to have you.
Those words were music to his ears.
Jing Yichen had always had one goal C to make Shangguan Ning be the happiest woman in the entire world.
Now that she was feeling happy, it made him feel very satisfied.
No, baby, I am not doing enough. I want to make you even happier!
He snatched a towel from the rack and dried Shangguan Nings feet. Then he carried her to the bedroom.
Shangguan Ning realized what Jing Yichen meant to do. Colour instantly bloomed on her cheeks as she struggled in his arms. Haha, Mr. President, you seem to have forgotten that it is my special day today and you are not going to get a chance to do any mischief!
Only now did Jing Yichen realize that he had gotten excited way too early.
He was not going to taste the happiness for the next few days.
But it was okay. There was always another way to taste happiness.
He kissed his wifes face and whispered in a flirty tone, I have many more tricks up my sleeve which I am going to try tonight.
The following day, Shangguan Ningined to the man next to her for the 100th time on the way to the airport. How can I meet Anan in this way? You are just too evil. You should go and sleep on the street and I will sleep with Anan instead.
No way! His cousin got his wife the moment she came home. What position would he haveter in the future?
Without changing the expressions on his face, he looked at Shangguan Nings neck and earlobes where the kiss marks were nearly invisible. The marks are all gone, no one can see anything. Also, Anan must be very tired after the long flight. You better not to disturb her by asking her to sleep with you.
Shangguan Ning touched her earlobes dubiously. Could the traces have disappeared already? They were there when she checked in the morning?
Whatever the case, she still decided to keep Ananpany tonight and let President Jing sleep alone in their room.
It was quite noisy at the airport. Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen waited for a while post which, a short-hair girl with a slender body appeared in front of them. She was dressed in ck leather top and pants. She was wearing a huge pair of sunsses that covered half of her face, making her look very pretty and cool, which turned a lot of heads.
There was a middle ageddy with tworge pieces of luggage behind her walking with a smile on her face.
Shangguan Ning called out to her happily, Anan, I am here!
Zhao Anan had already seen her a while ago. The man looked handsome but distant whilst the woman was elegant and beautiful C they looked like a star couple. They were clinging to each other so intimately that it was impossible not to notice them.
Zhao Anan had never expected that her iceberg like cousin would be so indulgent. He looked at his wife in a gentle manner and kept his arms around her waist as if fearing that she would slip away if he wasnt paying attention.
Sigh! Her god-like cousin finally became human after meeting Shangguan Ning.
Zhao Anan sprinted to Shangguan Ning and gave her a huge hug and a kiss. Her cousin frowned unhappily as if he wanted to punch her.
She burst intoughter. Removing her sunsses, she said, Beauty, I missed you so much. You should sleep with me tonight!
Jing Yichen couldnt tolerate it any more. He pinched Zhao Anans cors with two fingers and then dragged her aside and told her seriously, Stay away from Ning! No touching!
Zhao Zhao, Zhao Anans mother, came there with tworge pieces of luggage and criticized her unhappily as well. Why are you trying to snatch your cousins wife? You better get me a son-inw instead. You are twenty-seven years old and still unmarried. Must I keep feeding you for your entire life?
Zhao Anan was about to object when a crisp voice interrupted. Aunt Zhao, it is very difficult for a tomboy like Zhao Anan to marry someone. What about me, then? I am the most popr single man in A City!
The four of them turned in the direction of the voice came and saw a sunny, handsome man who stood leaning against a column wearing dark sunsses.
Controlling herughter, Zhao Anan said without any courtesy, Stay away from me! Even if you are thest man on earth, I will not marry you.
Zhao Zhao, however, had apletely different reaction than Zhao Anan. She had a huge smile on her face at the sight of Mu Qing. Ignoring her luggage, she went up to pull Mu Qing into a hug.
She said happily, Mu Qing, so good that you are here to pick up Zhao Anan. Help me get her luggage and drop her home. I need to be somewhere else, I am very busy, you know.
She looked sharply at Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen, indicating that they should not interfere so that Mu Qing was the one to drop Zhao Anan home.
Shangguan Ning was startled. Didnt Jing Yichen say that it was impossible between them? Why did Zhao Anans mother seem so eager to match her daughter to Mu Qing, then? Didnt Mu Qing have a lot of girlfriends as per the rumours? Why did Zhao Zhao still care so much about him and show more enthusiasm to him than to her nephew, Jing Yichen?
Was there anything that she didnt know?
Chapter 237 - To Love or not Love
Chapter 237: To Love or not Love
Shangguan Ning gaze swung from the irritated Zhao Anan to an enthusiastic looking Mu Qing. She tugged at Jing Yichens sleeves indicating that they should leave.
Jing Yichen was pleased by Mu Qings behavior. It seemed that he had made the correct decision to text Mu Qing about Zhao Anans return. Zhao Anan, the scourge had not only kissed his woman but also wanted to sleep with her.
He couldnt tolerate it.
He understood what his wife was trying to convey and left with her instantly.
He didnt care if Mu Qing and Zhao Anan could be together or not. He only wanted his wife to be with him. That was enough. As for their rtionship, it was not something within his purview.
Even with everyone gone, Zhao Anan still refused to talk with Mu Qing. Instead, she put on her sunsses and started to walk away.
Mu Qing followed behind with her luggage. He felt happy to see her despite being ignored.
Hey, Tomboy! Cant you walk a bit slowly? Dont you appreciate the fact that the most efficient and handsome doctor in the entire city is helping you with your luggage?
Zhao Anan sneered and rolled her eyes. No one asks you to get the luggage. You offered to help. You speak so highly of yourself. Why dont youpare yourself to my cousin and see your worth then.
He is a demon, only one of his kind in this entire world. I am notparing myself to him. And for your information, I am better than him at medicine. I even saved his life! Yours too! So you better treat me well.
You couldnt cure my cancer and still im to be excellent? I would have died two years ago if I had chosen you to be my doctor. Please, dont brag in front of me until you are able to cure all diseases. Now, get out of here!
Zhao Anan was the only one who could speak out about her disease so openly. Usually, people didnt dare to mention cancer so casually.
Mu Qing wasnt irritated upon hearing her words because it was true that he hadnt managed to cure Zhao Anan.
But he wasnt defeated. Cancer is the most difficult medical issue in the entire world. No doctor in the world can guarantee a full recovery. I am a genius in the medical field, and I will definitely solve this issue in the next few decades.
Zhao Anan pped and said sarcastically, Congrattions, Doctor Mu. You are going to get the Nobel Prize. Unfortunately, I may not be able to live that long. I will die next time the cancer returns. So, get out of here and stop talking bullshit.
Mu Qing got furious all of a sudden. He tossed aside the luggage and pushed Zhao Anan against the wall, in public. He trapped her body with his so that she couldnt run away.
Enough, Zhao Anan! Stop talking about death. I hate it.
Not being able to escape, Zhao Anan got so irritated that she bit hard on his shoulder. Within no time, blood drops formed on Mu Qings shoulders, dying his brand-new white shirt.
Mu Qing face was twisted with pain. He asked furiously, Were you born in the year of the dog? I have bite marks from you all over my body. Stop biting me.
Get off me! We broke up ages ago, and you seem to have a new girlfriend every single day. I am sure you can cure everything, even STD!
Stop getting jealous! I have no girlfriends. They are just my patients. It ispletely normal to see them naked. It makes no difference in my eyes. I have seen enough naked bodies, maybe as many as 10,000! I am a doctor.
Zhao Anan still had the intense expression on her face. She looked cold and said, Dont think so highly of yourself. I am not bored enough to get jealous. Just stop badgering me, we will not get back together again. Lets just go home and you better disappear right after that, if you dont want a taste of my fist!
Tiredness crept inside Mu Qings heart.
They couldnt even talk properly. They had been behaving in the same way during the past few years whenever they met. He was either arguing with her or chasing her. Why couldnt they just sit down and talk properly?
Zhao Anan kept hiding herself from him and refused to speak to him. They either fought or swore at each other in every meeting. There was one time when Mu Qing didnt even want to meet her, because she had been too fierce.
But they couldnt continue like this. The old man kept urging him to get married, especially after Jing Yichens marriage. Mu Wensheng had gotten even more anxious. He didnt want to lose to Jing Tianyuan. He wanted a granddaughter-inw and wanted a better one who could give birth to a great-grandson first!
Mu Qing closed his eyes and said, I want you to give me a son!
Zhao Anan almost choked on her own saliva. She looked at Mu Qing with wide eyes and said incredously, Are you stupid? You know very well that I am infertile!
Who says so? When I say you can get pregnant, then you can! I am a doctor and I have the final say. Anyway, lets just try to make it happen first!
Hehe, are you suffering from Alzheimers or amnesia? We already made it happen ten years ago. It is useless to attempt it now. Get out of here and stop wandering around me. I want other good looking men toe near me.
Sigh! Yet another failure ofmunication.
Actually, Mu Qing had tried numerous times to give up on the rtionship between him and Zhao Anan, but then he started running after it again. Each time he failed, he tended to stay silent for a while.
People could run out of passion, patience and confidence, especially someone like Mu Qing constantly faced other huge pressures. His heart had frozen after being turned down by Zhao Anan so many times.
He knew that Zhao Anan liked him, liked him a lot. She had been with him since she was a teenager and had remained true-hearted to him. He also knew that she kept turning him down for his sake C she couldnt live long suffering from this disease.
Also, there was a huge family factor in his case. Mu Wensheng had said clearly that he couldnt marry Zhao Anan, because they needed the lineage of Family Mu going.
Maybe it was really because of the upation that Mu Qing had seen too many nude women to lose interest in them. Or maybe it was because he had strong feelings towards Zhao Anan since they were young.
But one thing was clear. If he had to spend the rest of his life with someone, then he would only want to do it with Zhao Anan.
Chapter 238 - Best Friend is Back
Chapter 238: Best Friend is Back
In the end, Zhao Anan managed to push Mu Qing off. She left the airport alone with her luggage.
It was a very hot summer in A City, and dressed in a leather dress, she felt sweat travel all over her body. But her heart felt cold.
She had lived in Germany for a very long time to attain full recovery.
Although she looked intimidating and distant when she met Mu Qing, she had been scared that he would see through her weakness. Luckily, he was a top-notch Chinese and western doctor but not a psychiatrist. He couldnt see through her heart and she had managed to walk away with a pretentious posture.
Zhao Anan hired a taxi and asked the driver to go fast because of Mu Qing, who kept shouting from behind.
The good natured, middle aged driver, couldnt help but speak up, seeing the person who kept running after the car, Girl, your boyfriend is so true to you. You shouldnt be this cruel to him. True love is not easily found these days. You mustnt let it slip away.
Zhao Anan didnt need to hide anything from the stranger. She wiped away her tears and smiled bleakly. You dont need to be with the man you love to prove it. Just because I turned him down doesnt mean that I dont love him. As long as he lives well, it would be enough for me.
Shangguan Ning had just reached home with Jing Yichen when Zhao Anan called her. Shangguan Ning, you are so heartless! I have juste back from a foreign country and you ran away with your husband, leaving me alone at the airport. This is the end of our friendship.
I was the one who hooked you up with my cousin and you turned out to be a typicaldder remover! I am so disappointed in you. You must appear in front of me within ten minutes, or, you will need to face the consequences!
Being scolded by her best friend, Shangguan Ning immediately asked, Where are you? I will be there in a jiffy!
Ten minutester, Shangguan Ning appeared at Victorian, leaving an annoyed Jing Yichen behind.
She hugged Zhao Anan, standing right in the middle of the restaurant. Tears spilled out of her eyes.
Anan, I missed you so much! Finally, you are back. You look just the same. I am so happy to see you.
Zhao Anan pushed her away disdainfully, and said, I am feeling hot in this weather. Dont stick to me. You didnt seem to miss me so much back at the airport, but you do now? I will not forgive you so easily.
Despite her harsh words, she started to wipe off Shangguan Nings tears.
But they kept leaking out.
Alright, alright! I am not angry with you. I have forgiven you. I feel so sour in my heart. If my cousin gets to know about your tears, I will be yed alive.
The restaurant was still in business. Some guests looked at them curiously, making Zhao Anan feel ufortable.
It seemed as if she had bullied Shangguan Ning. But it had been Ning who hadnt behaved well and left her alone to deal with that scumbag Mu Qing. But now, she started to cry even before Zhao Anan could get angry.
It seemed that she will have to be the bigger person here.
Alright, alright, it was my fault. I shouldnt have shouted at you. Dont cry, I am sorry, okay?
But Shangguan Nings tears kept trickling down like pearls without thread. She wasnt crying because Zhao Anan had bellowed at her.
She was just very happy to see Zhao Anan back to what she was like before C cool, young and full of energy. She was no longer the woman who had looked so skinny back at the hospital in Germany.
She wiped her tears and said guiltily, I am ashamed to shed tears like this. Lets get inside and talk!
Zhao Anan released a sigh of relief. She pulled the luggage into the restaurant and said exaggeratingly, My god, my sister finally knows about shame. You almost flooded my restaurant with your tears and scared my guests away. You better note here next time, or my restaurant will have to be closed down.
The way she said it, Shangguan Ning couldnt help but burst intoughter. She joked while pulling the luggage. I must be looking ugly while crying. I can be the God of Gate for you next time to drive away all the demons. Then your restaurant will have good business!
Forget it, you look too fragile and tearful to scare the demons! Instead, you can tidy yourself up and be a beautiful waitress. Then my business would definitely boom.
Aha, you even dare to ask your sister to be your waitress. If you are going to be this cruel, I will tell my husband and he will buy out everything!
Honestly, are you trying to show off your rtionship in front of me and kill this single girl with jealousy? I have to remind you that I am your matchmaker! You have mistreated me so much that I havent even received the red packet yet. Let me go and buy some pills of regret...
They came into the room and sat down next to each other. They couldnt help but hug each other again. Zhao Anan had missed Shangguan Ning a great deal as well. She only had Shangguan Ning as her best friend.
Jesus, I am starving! The food on the ne was simply too horrible to even put in my mouth. I want to eat the most authentic sirloin steak served at our restaurant. Waitress! Take my order.
She struck the table so hard that the waitress who had followed them in, chuckled. Alright, boss! All the beef steaks you order today, are on the house!
The waitress joked with Zhao Anan as an old friend despite her being the boss.
Zhao Anan pretended to be furious, Ha, I havent been here for half a year and you have started to give free food to the guests? I will turn you into beef steak tomorrow and serve you on the house.
I am sorry, Boss, but my meat will be human, not as delicious as beef. The waitress said and sneaked away, controlling herughter. Another waitress came to serve them in a bit.
Shangguan Ning chuckled. This waitress was very clever. She knew that she needed to stay away from Zhao Anan for now else she would eat her up instead.
They were having a good time and Shangguan Ning decided not to ask Zhao Anan about Mu Qing right now.
But she told herself that she would definitely help her best friend if she had any feelings for him!
Chapter 239 - A Night with My Best Friend
Chapter 239: A Night with My Best Friend
However, what Shangguan Ning didnt expect was that Zhao Anan would start the topic herself.
Zhao Anan paused while eating the beefsteak. In a serious tone, she said, Ning, please, remember not to leave me alone with Mu Qing again, in case I cant control myself.
In case she couldnt stop herself from getting close to him, to hug him, to kiss him...
After getting to know about her disease, she had not kissed him even once. How many years had passed since then? Ten maybe?
Zhao Anan shook her head firmly. She mustnt think about it because her heart would hurt.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but get startled. Judging from Zhao Anans expression... it seemed that she had deep feelings for Mu Qing.
But what did she mean by that statement? She had feelings for him but was pushing him away because of her... disease?
Soon, Zhao Anans happy face returned.
Sheughed, I wont be getting together with Mu Qing ever, so dont bother trying to hook us up again. My mother is already enough for me to handle. I dont want you to be involved in it as well. She wants me to marry into Family Mu because she believes that Old Mu is excellent and Mu Qing is also a rare genius in the medicine world. Together they can make sure that I live up to 99 years of age.
Mothers were the most selfish creatures who wanted the best for their children.
Zhao Zhao was aware that Mu Qing was courting Zhao Anan and that they had been together ages ago. Zhao Anan had even got pregnant with his baby and it was reasonable for her to marry him. Besides, Family Mu could deal with all kinds of diseases with various methods. Although cancer might not be totally curable, yet Zhao Anan could stay alive by staying in Family Mu and receiving treatment all her life.
She just wanted her only daughter continue to stay alive!
She had not given her daughter a healthy body, so she had to be selfish to sacrifice Mu Qing so that her daughter could have a steady and happy person to turn towards.
If they were lucky enough, her daughters disease might not ever surface again and she could live happily like a normal person.
Zhao Anan knew what her mother was up to, but she didnt want to drag Mu Qing down with her. It was nice enough to live this way, where she had family and friends around her. She didnt want to disrupt this.
Seeing her like this, Shangguan Ning felt bitter in her heart.
She knew that Zhao Anan had feelings for Mu Qing, but she didnt want to pull him down.
What a silly girl!
Anan, I suggest that you should reconsider the situation. Sometimes, we need to be a bit selfish because that might not necessarily be a bad thing. Neither of you would be happy if you think too much from only your head.
Hearing what she had said, Zhao Anan disyed a bright smile. I am very happy now! I have never taken my disease seriously. I want to have fun while I can. It is always easy to live one more day when you are not attached to anyone or anything. That is why I keep saying that I will not get married. I dont want to be restrained by marriage. Look at me. I am not a person who could breed a child. I am a child myself!
Shangguan Ning thought that Zhao Anan and Mu Qing had a simr personality C they both were outgoing. They were good at adjusting their state of mind and people like them usually lived happily and freely.
But she really wished that they could be together. Mu Qing knew about Zhao Anans disease better than anyone else, and he didnt seem to mind it. Then why was Zhao Anan being so adamant?
Seeing Shangguan Nings expression, Zhao Anan knew what was she thinking.
She smiled and said, Stop thinking about hooking us up. Trust me, what I have decided is the right thing. You can hook up any good girl you run intoter, with Mu Qing. Better let him fall for another girl so that he can forget what has happened in the past. He owes me nothing, hence he doesnt need to pay me back with his wonderful life.
Shanggun Ning was not going to take up her silly suggestion.
She was not going to hook Mu Qing up with any girls, but she was going to keep an eye on Mu Qing instead and drive away any girls who came near him.
Shangguan Ning whispered in her heart CSorry, Doctor Mu, you are only allowed to be my best friends man. She ispletely healthy now and the chances of her disease returning are extremely slim. She belonged to you when she was a teenager and was even pregnant with your baby, once. I am sorry, but you have to take full responsibility!
Zhao Anan was a frivolous girl and was passionate about something for only three minutes before she changed her mind. Although she insisted on separating herself from Mu Qing, she might change her mind after a while!
Shangguan Ning stopped persuading Zhao Anan. She would rather go and talk with Mu Qing instead of wasting anymore time on her.
Shangguan Ning took Zhao Anan to her house post dinner.
She didnt live with her mother. Instead, her t was in apound close to University X because of convenientmuting to her previous workce.
Shangguan Ning had not been to her home before. The servants weed them with enthusiasm and started to make tea for them.
Zhao Anans home was spread across 400 square meter and was full of European styled golden luxurious decorations instead of the ck and white style which she usually preferred.
She exined smilingly, My mother entrusted someone else to decorate the house. I was just toozy to get involved because it meant too much work. I was happy for only two days after the house was bought. Then I got bored and gave it to my mother to handle. But when I came in, I was like, oh my gosh! It was a house of a nouveaux! It looked as if she wanted everyone to know that we are wealthy.
Shangguan Ning had no idea what was Zhao Anans family business, earlier. After she married Jing Yichen, she got to know that Family Zhao was into jewelry business since generations. They had jewelry stores everywhere across the world and their business was at the top in A City. The diamond wedding rings sold by them every year became very popr in A City and usually were the top choices of all newly-wedded couples. Every year, Family Zhao presented some treasures for auction and whoever was able to buy these treasures became tremendously popr in A City.
Family Zhao didnt have any sons but two daughters, namely Zhao Qing and Zhao Zhao. Therefore, the two sisters had shared the properties of Family Zhao equally.
Zhao Qings share had been the dowry which she brought along to Family Jing. After she passed away, her properties that were worth hundreds of billions were transferred to Jing Yichen by Jing Zhongxiu.
Zhao Zhaos share was still with her. She nned to give them to Zhao Anan as her dowry.
The dowry was more than enough for many generations to finish. So Zhao Zhao was not worried that her daughter would not find a family or whether Mu Qing would take her in. What she was worried about was that her daughter would not live long enough to use those properties.
Chapter 240 - Men at the Door
Chapter 240: Men at the Door
Zhao Zhao wanted to give the best things in the world to her daughter. She didnt put the treasured blue diamond ne which Family Zhao had manufacturedst year, on auction. Instead, she left it to Zhao Anan. Hence, it wasnt a big deal to have a house that was so luxuriously decorated for her to live in.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but burst intoughter seeing Zhao Anans disdainful face. Zhao Anan had just told her that the wallpaper in her house had been made by melting gold bars.
If the wallpaper at your home is really decorated with golden bars, then I can knock you off and then rip the wallpaper and everything else off the wall!
Zhao Anan burst intoughter as well. She handed over the luggage to the servants and then showed Shangguan Ning around. It was the first time she had brought someone home and wanted to show off a bit. After all, her mother had spent so much effort in turning the ce into a luxurious pce!
Anan, are those fist sized pearls on the wall, the legendary luminous pearls?
Well, they are just luminous pearls, why legendary? Pluck them off if you like it. Those were something your husband left behind and I brought them home. I hope that he wouldnt dislike them when you take them with you ... also, Mu Qing once said that luminous pearls tend to cause infertility, are you sure you still want them?
Wow! Anan, the door bars are really made of gold! Do you think that I should knock you off and take them all home?
Have you used pearls to make up the drapery? Dont people use them as a ne? Even if your family deals in pearls, you dont have to be so... tant about it!
Why are they so many diamonds around your makeup mirror? You wont even be able to see your reflection in such a dazzling mirror. I have decided that I dont want your luminous pearls or door bars, I just want this mirror!
...
Hearing what Shangguan Ning said, Zhao Anan felt that her vain heart waspletely satisfied. Her mother had spent so much in making the house magnificent and now there was a person apart from the servants who admired the decorations.
Honestly, my dearest Sister, can you just not admire me? Your husband is much richer than I am! I heard that he gives away diamonds by kilos. I bet that your home is filled with diamonds and that you have no ce to sleep anywhere. Also, he leaves the car worth tens of millions down in the garage to rust. Family Jing even bought a mountain to build their vis. Can anyone be richer than your family? Are you just trying to cheer me by speaking so highly of my home?
Shangguan Ning was not yet used to being addressed as Sister by Zhao Anan, but she found it endearing. It felt as if they were much closer than before.
She held Zhao Anans arms and said sheepishly, I am just so surprised to see those jewelry and pearls at your home. Family Jing is rich as well, but they dont seem to spend money in the same way as your family does.
Family Jing preferred keeping a low-profile.
Maybe Zhao Anan was the only family in the entire A City that showed off in such a way! No one else would do that, because it was just too much of a temptation for thieves!
The two girls kept talking for the entire afternoon all the way until the evening. They hadnt seen each other for so long and had much to discuss.
Finally, Shangguan Ning made a call to Jing Yichen.
What? My dear wife, are you noting home tonight? Are you staying overnight at Zhao Anans ce with her?
Jing Yichen jumped out of the sofa and looked instantly displeased.
Goddamned Zhao Anan. She just took away his wife the moment she returned from Germany. She had spent the entire day and now she wanted her to sleep with her as well? Intolerable!
What was his position as a husband?
No way, you muste home now. You are only allowed to sleep with me. I dont want anyone to touch you or take you in their arms. Does Zhao Anan want to die so soon? If she dares to touch you, I will send her back to Germany tomorrow!
Shangguan Ning said helplessly, Anan is a girl! What is wrong with us sleeping together? She is your sister, not someone from outside the family. Cant you behave normally?
That is my most normal reaction as a husband when my wife decides to sleep with someone else. No girls, no cousins! You mustnt sleep with her,e home now!
Zhao Anan, who was sitting next to Shangguan Ning, heard everything that Jing Yichen said.
She couldnt help but sigh as she shook her head. My cousin who was so smart, intelligent, good-looking and intimidating... has be a total ve of his wife. The cold God of Men has now be a husband who spoils his wife to such a degree. I dare not look at this dazzling picture.
Shangguan Ning didnt hear what Zhao Anan said. She was still trying to exin to Jing Yichen.
We are good friends! We shop, eat and sleep together. That is what girls do. It is totally normal. You are overreacting. Anyway, I will sleep with Anan tonight and you rest at home. Dont stay up reading files tillte. Good night!
Before Jing Yichen was able to say anything more, he realized that his wife had hung up the phone.
It was a terrible feeling. He felt that his position in her heart was wobbling. Zhao Anan had robbed him of Shangguan Ning so easily and Shangguan Ning seemed to have deserted him so easily as well.
He didnt want to be ced second.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan had just changed into pajamas and were walking towards the bathroom when an anxious sound of knocking came from outside.
They exchanged a dubious look, and Zhao Anan took Shangguan Nings hands to walk to the door cautiously. They were about to turn on the viewable telephone on the wall when the thief-proof door, which had cost more than tens of thousands of yuan to install, was opened from outside within a second.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan both got startled. They turned pale, fearing a burry. After all, Zhao Anans home was indeed an attraction for thieves.
They were just about to call the police when a courteous voice came from outside. Master, the door has been opened. Go in please!
It was Tiger!
Tiger retreated and then a displeased looking Jing Yichen walked in. Behind him was another handsome man.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan shouted out in surprise at the same time.
Yichen?!
Mu Qing?!
Seeing them, Zhao Anan let out a sigh of relief but said grumpily, I havent told anyone about my new home address, how did you get here? I almost called the police because I thought you were thieves. Please dont pry in like robbers next time, okay? It was too scary.
Chapter 241 - You Sleep with Me!
Chapter 241: You Sleep with Me!
Jing Yichen noticed that his wife had already changed her clothes. He frowned and asked her about it.
Shangguan Ning hadnt expected that he woulde to the house along with Mu Qing! She was still in shock and said, I was going to take shower with Anan!
Jing Yichens face sank. His fingers clenched together tightly, making the knuckles crack. It wasnt that pleasant in the living room anymore.
What did you say? You were going to take shower with someone else?
He didnt get to shower with Shangguan Ning until a long time after they got married and he had to force her for it. What did she want to shower with Zhao Anan for?
Seeing Jing Yichens expression change, Shangguan Ning understood that he seemed to have gotten angry. She immediately exined to him, We were going to take a shower in two different bathrooms, not in the same one! Your mind is drifting!
Actually, she was not open enough to shower with Zhao Anan. She wasnt used to exposing her own body in front of others, not even in front of women. It was too embarrassing!
But... had Jing Yichen be a bit too overly jealous? Why did he get jealous because of his own cousin! What a fool!
Hearing what Shangguan Ning exined, Jing Yichen finally looked slightly assured. But he still said with a cold voice, Come home with me. No spending overnight anywhere else. It is not safe with so many hungry wolves around!
Zhao Anan got badly annoyed. She didnt care about the reason as to why Mu Qing was with Jing Yichen at this moment, and shouted angrily, Hey, Master Jing, what are you talking about? Who are you referring to as hungry wolves? I am your matchmaker, I got to know Ning first! You didnt express any gratitude after she married you instead tried to get her away from me.
She dragged Mu Qing to her side and said loudly, You, bystander! Say something reasonable. I arranged their blind date using all the possible methods that I could think of. But after he got the beauty, he turns his cold face to his cousin, the matchmaker. When my best friend wants to spend the night with me, hees to the doorte at night and scolds me. Tell me, isnt he a mean, and cruel man?
Mu Qing eventually got to know how Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning had met each other C through a blind date.
So Master Jing had agreed to ept a blind date. That itself was surprising.
On top of that, he fell in love with her on the first blind date! It was totally unfair that such a lucky thing, which only urred one in a million, would happen to him.
But what Zhao Anan was asking him to do was putting Mu Qing into a dilemma.
He would be courting death if he agreed with what Zhao Anan said. But he would offend her if he disagreed with her. She wouldnt want to talk with him any more in the future when she already hardly spoke to him.
It was more difficult to answer this one than the question C whom you will rescue first if both your mother and I fell into the water, because for that question he would have answered Cyou, because my mother can swim and doesnt need to be saved!
Mu Qing turned to Shangguan Ning with a pitiful expression. Shangguan Ning was the only normal one in the group.
Sure enough, Shangguan Ning didnt disappoint him. Seeing him trapped in between these two, she dragged Jing Yichen away and left the furious looking Zhao Anan to Mu Qing.
Zhao Anans living room was enormous, divided by the pearl drapery so that it formed two semi-isted spaces.
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were on the east side whilst Zhao Anan was on the west side.
Didnt I ask you to rest at home and sleep early? Why are you here?
Didnt I ask you toe home and not sleep with others? Why are you still here?
Jing Yichen felt that his wife had abandoned him. So he was in a bad mood and sounded quite cold, making Shangguan Ning frown.
She stayed silent for a minute and then took him into her arms speaking softly, Silly man, Anan is a girl, why are you jealous of her? It makes my heart ache... He didnt want her to have fun with others.
Jing Yichen took hold of her slender waist as he said bossily, I dont want anyone to hug you, only I can hug you! I cant tolerate it when I dont have you beside me in bed. I cant even fall asleep. So, why should Zhao Anan get a good sleep?
Shangguan Ning didnt expect that he would mind it so much when she shared the bed with someone else. It melted her heartpletely.
She made her choice within no time. She slipped her hand on his waist and whispered. Alright, if you dont like it, I wont sleep with her. I will sleep with you.
The ice on Jing Yichens face melted hearing what she said. Okay!
Shangguan Ning smiled and shook her head C it was so easy to make her man happy.
Jing Yichen cared so much about her that she felt extremely lucky. She kissed Jing Yichen and then looked at the two silhouettes on the other side of the pearl drapery. Why is Mu Qing here with you?
Shangguan Ning had just finished asking when Mu Qing exined loudly from the other side of the living room. I am not following you, I came with Master Jing. He came to find his wife whilst I came to find my fiance.
No one is your fiance here. Get out now!
You are my fiance! You promised to marry me already, so dont try to break your promise!
I was underaged at that time. Dont take it seriously. You are a piece of wood and I have changed my mind.
I took your words seriously! Anyways, I will sleep here tonight and I will do what a fianc should do.You arent sleeping with Sister, you are sleeping with me tonight!
Zhao Anan got pissed off by Mu Qings unreasonable behaviour. How dare he ask her to sleep with him? He was simply too audacious!
She raised her leg and kicked him.
She red and shouted, Fianc? Sleeping with you? Get out of my house. Also, why do you call her Sister as I do. Stop trying to suck up to her!
Mu Qing addressed Shangguan Ning as Sister to sound close to them. But how he addressed her at this moment truly seemed to be the same as how Zhao Anan should address her. After all Jing Yichen was Zhao Anans cousin and it was natural for her to address Shangguan Ning as Sister from the family.
Chapter 242 - Unlock the Door and Watch Her
Chapter 242: Unlock the Door and Watch Her
I am not doing this with any other purpose. Master Jing is my brother. How else should I address my brothers wife as, if not call her sister? Even if you are taken into consideration, I will need to address her as Sister. So, I am not making any mistakes here.
No way, only I can call her Sister. You are not allowed to do so!
Dear Zhao Anan, how much can you boss over me? I can address her as whatever I fancy as long as she agrees. What do you have anything to do with it?
Of course I do! Lets go to Ning and ask her. She will definitely listen to me and not allow you to call her Sister.
I have always called her that. She will definitely allow me to continue.
...
Shangguan Ning could hear what they were talking about through the pearl drapery partition. She was surprised by how fickle their conversation was.
They had been talking about the whole fiance and fianc issue and in the next second, they started arguing about the issue of calling her Sister! These were twopletely different topics.
Seeing theming towards her from the other side of the living room in such a fierce mood, Shangguan Ning moved away from Jing Yichen and waited for them to say whatever they wanted to.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Anan was a fickle girl. Shepletely forgot what she had argued with Mu Qing after walking even this short a distance.
Instead, she said, Aha, Ning, what about letting him stay overnight here since my cousin is already here. We can have fun tonight with so many people.
Shangguan Ning swallowed down what she had prepared to say.
Ms. Zhao, could you please not be being so fickle next time? I am not fast enough to keep up with you.
Shangguan Ning asked her husband for advice regarding the issue of sleeping here, before he got jealous again.
Yichen, can we sleep here tonight?
Unexpectedly, Jing Yichen nodded and said, Yes!
Then he turned towards Zhao Anan and said bossily, But Ning is only allowed to sleep with me. You must stay away from her!
Zhao Anan shook her head instantly and replied, No, no, no I will sleep with Ning, and you...
She threw a look at Mu Qing next to her and then her eyes widened as she said with augh, You can sleep with Mu Qing.
Before Jing Yichen could reply, Mu Qing bellowed anxiously with his hands over the chest. No, no I dont want to.
He sounded as if Jing Yichen was going to take advantage of him.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan turned to look at him in astonishment. They had no idea why he reacted so fiercely.
Zhao Anan was just joking C she knew pretty well that Jing Yichen didnt like to be touched by others. She also was aware that Jing Yichen was not going to sleep with Mu Qing. He would rather stand for an entire night than to sleep with anyone other than Shangguan Ning.
But what they didnt understand was why Mu Qing was so scared of Jing Yichen. They didnt realise that if he identally touched even an edge of JingYichens cor, he would be thrown away hard enough to be bed ridden for half a month. If he ever dared to sleep with him, then there would only be one man left on the bed whilst the other one, namely Mu Qing would undoubtedly be a near corpse. They said that if a man died under a girls dress, then the death was worth the while. So if he really had to, then he would rather die sleeping with a girl than this fierce man!
It was not a joking matter. It was something even he darent even think of.
Zhao Anan suddenly got quite excited seeing Mu Qing scared of Jing Yichen. She flipped her hair in a flirty manner and looked at Mu Qing and asked him provocatively, Mu Qing, do you want.... it?
She looked tempting enough for Mu Qing to say yes!
But if he said those words, then Jing Yichen would probably throw him out of the house.
When people were forced into a corner, they usually said something extreme to face the danger. Therefore, after that short scary moment, Mu Qing said, Master Jing doesnt want me, so I have to sleep with you.
After seeing that Mu Qing wasnt ying her little game, Zhao Anan said unhappily, Boring!
She knew that she couldnt drive him away, because Mu Qing was an annoying but persistent person. So she dragged Shangguan Ning to her side and said to the two men, You two stay in the living room. We are going to take shower now. If either of you peek or ask Tiger to unlock the door, I will call the police.
She was referring to Mu Qing, because Jing Yichen was not going to look at her and it wouldnt matter if he peeked at Shangguan Ning C they were a couple anyway. She was just worried that Mu Qing would try and look at her.
It turned out that Zhao Anans worry waspletely right.
Jing Yichen stood outside his wifes bathroom guarding it as if Zhao Anan would break in at anytime. He was not worried about Mu Qing. He believed that Mu Qing wouldnt care or dare to do that.
Anyways, Mu Qing was busy trying to look at Zhao Anan. In his eyes, women were divided into two categories C Zhao Anan and the other women.
Shangguan Ning was extremely beautiful, but for Mu Qing, she was just one of his patients like any other women. All of them were his patients. He might talk or flirt with other girls happily, but they were just his patients.
He was a celebrated, young medical Head of A City and had many girls courting him. He didnt want to hurt those beautiful girls hearts so he smiled and flirted with them but nothing more than that.
God knew that Mu Qing had touched only Zhao Anan when he was a teenager. He had never been intimate with any other woman ever since.
He had almost forgotten what it felt like to have sex!
Therefore, when Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning created such a good opportunity for him, he definitely needed to make use of it.
Despite his best attempts, Mu Qing failed to open Zhao Anans bathroom door. Instead, he was so noisy in his efforts that Zhao Anan burst out angrily from the bathroom.
Mu Qing, you scumbag! Stay away from me or I will shoot you.
What are you trying to do at the door? Get away from me now!
Poor Mu Qing. The next minute, he ran outside to ask Tiger for his help in unlocking Zhao Anans bathroom door.
Chapter 243 - The Beastly Doctor Mu
Chapter 243: The Beastly Doctor Mu
Tiger was a straightforward man. Seeing that Mu Qing was asking him for advice politely just to court his girlfriend, he smiled and taught Mu Qing how to unlock the door. He even gave him a steel wire that worked on every lock.
Mu Qing listened to the instructions carefully with utmost concentration, even more than when he was conducting the most difficult operation!
Five minutester, he understood the procedures. Pleased, he ran back to the door to test his newly found knowledge.
Whether it was because of his good grasp of the instructions or the steel wire which Tiger had given him, he managed to unlock the door within five minutes.
Mu Qing twisted open the lock without hesitation and entered the misty bathroom.
Immediately, he saw Zhao Anan, who had just finished taking a shower and was just wearing nothing more than a pantie, gazing at him dumbfoundedly!
Her pink skin against the mist in the bathroom looked incredibly beautiful. She was tall and slender with a pair of endlessly long legs. Curvy in the right ces, she was uniquely sexy!
Zhao Anan had definitely grown up since hest saw her in this state.
Mu Qing had just thought this when Zhao Anan started to scream at the top of her voice, which shocked Mu Qing.
Zhao Anan had never expected that Mu Qing would really be able to pry in. He was a top-notch doctor but could do nothing else. He couldnt even repair a bulb. How had he managed to unlock the door?
Zhao Anan was terribly annoyed. She screamed and threw everything, including the towel, shampoo and body conditioner on him.
Ms. Zhao was different from the others. Her first reaction was not to cover herself up but to punch this indecent man.
Mu Qing slipped because of the stuff thrown at him. He instantly covered up his handsome face in case Zhao Anan would try and ruin his face.
Seeing him lying on the ground motionless, Zhao Anan suddenly realized that she was only wearing her undie and nothing else.
Oh no, did he see everything? That was terrible!
In panic, Zhao Anan started to look for her clothes to put on but then realized that she had tossed all of them on Mu Qing, earlier.
She walked towards him in a hurry, grabbed her pajamas and put them on. She was about to give Mu Qing a kick when she fell into a pair of warm arms all of a sudden.
Mu Qing held her tightly as he removed the towel and the gown from above his head. A smile hovered on his handsome face. Zhao Anan, you are not going anywhere tonight!
Zhao Anan struggled, kicked him and bit as she swore. Bastard! Let go of me. You are shameless. I will shout out for help if you dont release me.
Do it then! No one wille tonight however loudly you shout. Also, remember that my needle can make you numb instantly. If you dont want my force, obey my orders.
Mu Qing picked her up and walked out of the bathroom. Then he tossed her onto the enormous bed.
This is a very nice bed. Seems like you have been waiting for me for a long time. Otherwise what do you need such a huge bed for?
Nonsense! My mother bought this bed. Get out of here, or I will ask my cousin and sister to punch you to death.
Mu Qing was not scared. In fact, he was feelingzy to even unbutton his shirt and tore it apart before reaching for his belt.
Zhao Anan sprang up and hopped off the bed. Then she jumped onto the sofa and shouted at the top of her voice in a shrill tone, Help! Help! A viin is out to get me. Pleasee and save me, the beauty. Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen, stop indulging in your couple shower. Someones life is in danger.
Shangguan Ning had juste out of the bathroom when she heard Zhao Anans call for help.
She had addressed herself as the beauty and even called her and Jing Yichen by their names.
Jesus, she and Jing Yichen were doing nothing!
No one came to her rescue after Zhao Anan had finished screaming. Instead, Mu Qing had removed all of his clothes whichy on the floor and his muscrly beautiful body was on disy.
Heat crawled up on Zhao Anans face. Yet she tried to stay calm and reason with Mu Qing.
Doctor Mu, you are a doctor and you must have fundamental ethics as a doctor. I am telling you right here that you... you... cant force me if I dont want it.
It was such an illogical statement that even Zhao Anan, herself got a bit embarrassed.
Mu Qing chuckled, and then picked her up from the sofa. I do have ethics as a doctor, and I treat every patient carefully. But you are not my patient, you are my woman!
He tore apart Zhao Anans baggy pajamas and her wonderful, sexy body was exposed.
Are you mad, Bastard. Give the clothes back to me. Zhao Anan screamed in embarrassment and fury as she tried to cover herself up.
Mu Qing tossed her pajamas onto the ground casually and then took hold of her pliable limbs. He couldnt help but gulp at the sight of her exposed white skin.
He tried to stay calm but failed. Yes, I am mad. I am so mad that I allowed you to slip away from me. I am so mad that I have no feeling towards any other women except you!
He talked in such a passionate way that Zhao Anan couldnt hold onto her severe expression any more.
She had to change the strategy and begged him in a small voice. You are scaring me, please let go of me. Lets talk, alright? Alright? Alright?
She had said three alrights in a row and her look could easily soften peoples hearts.
But Mu Qing had been tricked too many times to believe her any more. I wont let go of you. This time you have to marry me. Anyone else who even dares to think of marrying you, will be turned into a eunuch with my needle!
Seeing that she failed in her pitiful act, Zhao Anan showed her anger yet again. She scolded him fiercely, Any more move on your part, and I will make you a eunuch right now!
Mu Qing ignored her outburst. He said authoritatively, Stop talking! Your happiness will be doomed if I be a eunuch!
Mu Qing! You are a beast!
No, Zhao Anan, I am not a beast, I am worse than a beast, you said so, didnt you!
Yes, you are worse than a beast!
Wonderful. You have called me by the right name. Now, if I dont do something, I will not be able to live up to this title! Therefore...
Chapter 244 - Together Again after a Decade
Chapter 244: Together Again after a Decade
Shangguan Ning ced her ear to the door outside Mu Qing and Zhao Anans room, after hearing Zhao Anan call for help. She wanted to check if Zhao Anan was being bullied. If Mu Qing was troubling her, she would break in to rescue Zhao Anan immediately.
But then, she heard something different.
Zhao Anan was still screaming but Mu Qing was talking provocatively.
Zhao Anan, whom are you putting on a pure girl show for? I have seen everything and touched every part of you. So stop hiding from me.
Zhao Anan, be cooperative! Lie on your stomach... oh, you like being on top?
Shangguan Ning blushed instantly. She immediately pulled Jing Yichen, who was leaning against the side of the door and walked towards their own room.
Jing Yichen smiled brightly. He whispered in Shangguan Nings ears. Ning, you do have a unique taste! You like eavesdropping. It is okay, you can continue listening. They wont being out for sometime now.
With hands over her face, Shangguan Ning walked inside the room with quick steps and then mmed the door after Jing Yichen entered.
She had not expected that two people who were fighting so hard in the previous second would start to do... brilliant! Mu Qing was indeed a man of action.
If she had known about it, she would not have asked Jing Yichen to rescue Zhao Anan.
It was all Zhao Anans fault for crying so loudly. She had thought that something was really happening to her.
Mu Qing, you bastard! Get away from me! Dont touch me!
I will punch you and call the police if you dare to continue!
Ahhh, it hurts!
There were no clothes between them any more. Their skin was touching each others and they could feel one anothers body heat.
Mu Qing pressed Zhao Anan down on the red sofa. Her white skin and ck hair created a picture that crazily excited Mu Qing.
Seeing her rosy lips, he couldnt help but kiss her.
Her lips were gentle and soft just as how Mu Qing remembered them.
He had dreamt about kissing her so many times, but none of them had been anywhere as sweet as the reality. In the excitement, he got a bit carried away and ended up biting Zhao Anans lips.
Mu, kiss as you wish, but why did you bite me? I am bleeding.
Sorry, Anan, I couldnt control myself. I have missed you a lot. Let me kiss you till I get proficient. Come, lets continue!
Mu Qing said so and leaned forward. They were immersed deeply into each other, leaving no space in between. Then they sank further into the soft sofa.
Zhao Anan was seventeen years old when she had first slept with Mu Qing. Now a decade had passed but the long interval made both of them feel familiar and strange at the same time with each others body.
Mu Qing had a scarily in-depth knowledge of medicine and knew everything about a womans body. He knew how to lessen Zhao Anans pain and how to make her happy.
Soon, pleasure came to Zhao Anan in tides and swept her away. She had lost all rationality. There was only one demon sound that remained in her head which said, Hold him, kiss him.
She wrapped her arms around Mu Qings neck and started to kiss him passionately. Mu Qing had been right C they hadnt been together in the recent past, but they had already given their hearts to each other ten years ago. The gap of ten years was gone within ten minutes of being intimate with each other.
Zhao Anan knew that she was in love with Mu Qing. But she had not expected that she would be so vulnerable when it came to him. She remembered everything about him.
They abandoned their burdened past and tangled together, kissing passionately as if trying to make up for all the love which they had missed during the past years.
Zhao Anan was even more eager than Mu Qing. She kept trying to feel his warmth, trying to cover up the panic and uneasiness inside the bottom of her heart.
Mu Qing knew that she was panicking. So he held her tightly, and kept kissing her. In this way, she could feel his existence and feel his love.
He kept saying, Anan, I love you!
Anan, I love you so much, I always love you!
Anan, I will love you forever. Please do not leave me...
Chapter 245 - “Betrayal” by Best Friend!
Chapter 245: Betrayal by Best Friend!
The following morning when the servant brought the groceries home, she was astonished to find two pairs of mens shoes on the rack. When she had left the night before, there were only two pairs of womens shoes. What happenedst night?
She made breakfast and was about to leave when four people came out of two bedrooms.
Startled for a second, she smiled brightly. Lady, I have got the breakfast ready. You and you friends can have it now. I need to leave.
Luckily, she had spotted four pairs of shoes and made four sets of breakfast, otherwise the guests would have starved.
Zhao Anan nodded expressionlessly. The moment the servant left, she started to push Mu Qing out. Get out of here now. No breakfast for you. Go and eat wind on the street!
Ning hadnt expected that Zhao Anan would push off Mu Qing so early in the morning? Werent they... getting on well with each otherst night?
Ignoring them, Jing Yichen brought Shangguan Ning to the table and said calmly, Dont mind them, lets eat. Zhao Anans servant is paid highly by my aunt and what she has made should taste ok.
Shangguan Ning whispered to him, So, they always argue like this?
Jing Yichen nodded. Yes, it is lucky that Mu Qing has not been punched today.
Shangguan Ning threw a worried look at Mu Qing. He looked so pitiful.
Mu Qing cried loudly. What do you mean, Zhao Anan? You slept with mest night and now you want to throw me out? You are so fickle! You must take responsibility for me. I am not a disposable condom. I dont want a one-night-stand. I want to have fun for a lifetime!
Zhao Anan pushed him out of the door. We had a one-night-stand. I am not asking you to take responsibility for me. Just get on with it.
I will take responsibility. I will take responsibility for your entire life! Mu Qing didnt want to let go of the door which he was gripping hard as he was pushed outwards.
Zhao Anan turned a deaf ear to what he said as she tossed his shoes out, and bit him violently on his hand. In pain, Mu Qing released the grip onto the door and Zhao Anan mmed it shut. She refused to open the door no matter how much the man outside knocked on it.
Zhao Anan came and sat at the table, picked up her bowl and chopsticks and started to gulp down food. Shangguan Ning gasped.
How could she be so doughty!
Some traces of kisses were still on her neck, indicating how crazy had the night been with Mu Qing. But she had driven away the man this morning and could still eat with a good appetite.
Suppressing the bitterness in her heart, Zhao Anan showed her usual face. With her eyes on the crystal shrimp in front of Shangguan Ning, she asked, Why are you not eating? I will take it if you dont want it. Its my favorite dish!
She was about to pick up the shrimp with chopsticks when another pair of chopsticks shed with hers and took the shrimp away.
Honey, dont your like shrimp most? Eat as much as you can!
Zhao Anan red at her cold cousin but dared not raise a hue and cry C Jing Yichen was quite intimidating.
She pursed her lips and turned to the sweet potato and yam pastry when her chopsticks failed once again C Jing Yichen had deftly picked up the pastry and added it to Shangguan Nings te. Honey, this is good for your health. Eat as much as you can.
For the very first time, Shangguan Ning ignored Zhao Anan but said in a very sweet voice, Thank you so much, my dearest husband! You are so nice!
Zhao Anan couldnt tolerate it any more. She banged the table and bellowed, What is it going on? Are you showing off your love here to abuse me, the single woman?!
Shangguan Ning finally turned to her and said innocently, Your fianc is just outside the door! How can you be a single woman? If you dont allow him in, we will keep showing off our love in your house today. As for the breakfast... dont eat it, because a single woman usually doesnt need to be fed.
Zhao Anan thought that she was really unlucky to have such a friend. Why was her best friend helping the scumbag Mu Qing?
She didnt know what had he done to her the night before. He didnt get tired. He did it so many times that she nearly died out of passion. She almost couldnt get up in the morning because of lethargy in her whole body.
But under Shangguan Nings pressure, she had to go and open the door for Mu Qing. Otherwise this seemingly gentle and lovely Shangguan Ning mighte up with an even worse method. She had been with Jing Yichen for too long to stay pure.
Mu Qing came in with a sunken face. The moment he caught sight of Zhao Anan, he put a silver needle into her exposed neck.
Within one second, Zhao Anan felt numbness in her arms and legs. She couldnt move any more.
She screamed, You scumbag! You lied about never using needles on me. Are you still a man?
You know pretty well that I am a man. In case you have forgotten, I have plenty of time to prove today that I am a man and one, full of vigor. If you are so eager, I can skip breakfast to prove my ability right now.
Mu Qing picked up Zhao Anan and put her over his shoulders. Then he came to the dining table, and settled her on the chair.
As for my promise about never using needles or drugs on you... just take it as a bag of wind! From today on, that promise doesnt count anymore. You will never stay still if I dont use any force on you. I dare you to shut me out next time, I will feed you such a drug that you will beg me until you cant get off the bed for half a year. Try it if you dont believe me! I am not a patient person, and I cant allow my wife to stay away from me anymore.
Unable to move, Zhao Anan got so angry that she almost bit off her own teeth. But she knew Mu Qing well enough to understand that no begging would work when he got angry.
She turned to her best friend for help, instantly. Ning, see, it is you who forced me to let him in, and now he is using tricks on me. Come and help me pull off the silver needle. I feel so ufortable to have the needle inside me. I am so hungry but I cant eat any more.
Shangguan Ning looked at her with a smile. Then she said something that struck Zhao Anan like a blow. You have finally fallen for our trap. I thought that Yichen and I hadnt acted well enough. Anyway, now that you arepletely under Doctor Mus control, my mission isplete. We are full now and will be off. You should enjoy your breakfast with your fianc in peace.
Chapter 246 - Eyes on Them
Chapter 246: Eyes on Them
Mu Qing stood up and bowed to Shangguan Ning as he said in all seriousness, Sister, I appreciate what you have done for me. I will always remember it. Just tell me if there is anything I can do for you and I will do it. Oh, yes, Master Jing will be cured very soon, and if he works a bit harder, you will soon get a little master, dont worry.
Oh, Doctor Mu! You did very well in the first part, but why did you add the second section? You just ruined your heroic image and are asking for a punch on your face.
Shangguan Ning blushed whilst Jing Yichen red at him.
Mu Qing immediately understood that what he said was wrong. He put on a smiling face and said, Have a nice trip back. I will be staying right here!
Without saying anything, Jing Yichen went out with Shangguan Ning.
On the way back, Shangguan Ning asked worriedly, Yichen, do you think that Anan will me me for what I have done? She told me yesterday that I was not to leave her alone with Mu Qing but I did exactly that. What if... what if Mu Qings family doesnt approve of their marriage?
I think you have done a great job. They had been troubling each other for more than ten years and didnt achieve a breakthrough until yesterday! It was all because of your efforts. I had thought that it was impossible between them but it seems that you have managed to make it possible, he said smilingly.
They like each other but Anan is too stubborn. She thought that she would be dragging him down with her illness and has been pushing him away all this while. I think that they look cute with each other and Mu Qing would make her happy, as long as she manages to ovee her worries.
Shangguan Ning felt a bit assured after being approved by Jing Yichen.
She hoped that she wasnt making a mistake and wished that Zhao Anan could get the happiness she deserved.
There were many times when a man found it difficult to make a choice standing at a crossroad. All he needed was a person to give a little push so that he could make the right choice.
If Zhao Anan found it difficult to make a decision, then Shangguan Ning would help her make up her mind. She had a clearer head than Zhao Anan who was confused regarding what suited her best.
The couple went home, changed and then went to the Enterprise for work together.
Everyone was very busy at thepany except for Jing Yiran who was wandering around. He was back to his old, charming self.
Shangguan Ning frowned but stopped thinking about him any more and started to deal with her work. Lu followed her around, making it impossible for Jing Yiran to enter the office and creating a peaceful environment for Ning to work in.
Jing Yichen publicized her appointment to the entire enterprise. She was now a Deputy President of the Enterprise, currently in charge of the Financial Department.
The entire enterprise was astonished by her appointment. Some even put forward their doubts regarding the same. But Shangguan Ning ignored them all. Since she already decided to ept the position, then she must give it her best and not be affected by others opinions.
She only hoped that she could grow rapidly enough to help Jing Yichen and contribute towards the business empire.
Jing Yichen stayed in the office for a short while before heading out for inspection of the projects.
In the afternoon, Lu drove Shangguan Ning to the residential site of the project as well. Jing Yichen wanted her to join him for a detailed inspection.
During the inspection, Lu and Tiger followed them closely. Tigers face was impassive, as usual. But behind that, he was extremely alert in his mind.
But Lu was a bit different today. She was not only clinging to Shangguan Ning and kept calling her sister but also was sporting an intense expression instead of her usual gullible one. Tiger noticed the unusualness although she tried to cover it up.
He looked at Lu in confusion and then asked kindly, Are you sick, Lu? If you are, you can go home and take a rest. I can watch out for Master and Lady.
Tiger knew that Lee Duo and his men were trailing them in secret, and it wouldnt matter if Lu was there or not.
Lu lowered her head and said in a low voice, I am not sick.
Although Tiger found Lus behaviour a bit strange, yet he didnt think much about it. He didnt know much about girls and couldnt figure out why the outgoing Lu would be so silent today. But he didnt say anything more when Lu refused to leave, because that was what he was like too C he would always stay by Jing Yichens side even when he was sick.
It was a deserted sewage-treatment nt located in the outskirts which they were visiting today. It was arge area with weeds growing around it. Jingsheng had decided to invest here and build arge-scaled shopping mall because soon this area would be developed by the city government soon and would grow rapidly post that. Jingsheng had decided to buy the area ahead of time because of the internal information which thepany had received.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning looked around, holding the map and ns for reference. The person who was by their side and served as a guide was none other than the current Mayor of A City C Chu Zhong.
Chu Zhong was only 37 years old. The reason why he could be the mayor at this age was because he was an outstanding man C smart, calm, experienced and steady but the biggest reason was that Jing Yichen had supported him.
As Jing Yichen and his team walked ahead, Lu and Tiger continued to follow them cautiously.
A whileter, Lu said to Tiger with a very low vice. Watch out, someone has their eyes on us!
Tiger was startled. He had not noticed anyone around.
The experienced Tiger stayed poised. There was no change in his facial expressions. He had heard what Lu said, but instead of looking around, he stayed still and observed the surroundings so as to avoid alerting the enemy.
Soon, he also noticed that someone seemed to be following them all the time.
Tiger broke into a cold sweat. There was an enemy around but he hadnt noticed it until Lu pointed it out to him.
It seemed that Lu was much more alert and tuned in than him. He had been near the edge of death so many times, involved in deadly fight all through his life and spent a hellish decade with Jing Yichen abroad. That was why he was so skilled.
But what about Lu? No one could be so sharp without being exposed to deadly situation repeatedly!
Tiger hadnt expected that this doll-looking Lu was actually a very fierce person. No wonder the Lord had made her thedys bodyguard!
Chapter 247 - A Mole
Chapter 247: A Mole
The unknown people didnt stop following them until a long timeter.
Jing Yichen walked ahead and then suddenly turned around. He said to Tiger in a low voice, Ask Lee Duo to follow them and check them out. Remember not to alert them.
Tiger understood that his Master had also noticed that they were under the scanner, so he nodded and sent a message to Lee Duo.
When the inspection came to an end, Lee Duo reported to Jing Yichen about the investigation. They are from Family Ji. They wanted to get thisnd and sent someone to check us up. But as a matter of fact, they dont have any intention of buying it!
Jing Yichen nodded and waved Lee Duo off.
He had spected correctly C Family Ji had started to act. Family Ji was 100% involved in Zhang Rongs death. How dare they carry out such an action?
Did they assume that they were capable enough topete with Family Jing and demolish them after they got Family Yangs hidden power andrge amount of properties in Swiss Bank?
The reason why Family Jing could stand firmly for hundreds of years was because the mobs were never able to touch them.
Jing Yichen sat in the car with Shangguan Ning with a calm expression and then headed home. They had finished their work for today and his wife needed to rest now. He would deal with those crazy insignificant people.
The day was getting darker. Some secrets were being decoded and some were cooking a big conspiracy.
In the wake of Zhang Rongs death, Jing Yiran stayed crazy for only two days before he returned to his old status as a yboy. He either went to Jingsheng Enterprise to show off his identity as the Second Master of Family Jing, or got himself drunk in the bars. It looked as if he had totally forgotten about his mothers death.
Deep in the night in an isted room of a bar, Jing Yiran slowly adjusted his hair that had been dyed green. He was wearing his sinister look.
Dressed in a white suit and a bright red shirt and a tie with the same color, he looked like a vampire!
Legs crossed, he was sitting on the sofafortably. Opposite him was a young, handsome man who was dressed in a hand-made grey suit and sported neat and tidy hair. He was drinking wine and looked elegant.
This man was none other than one of the heirs of Family Ji C Ji Bo.
Second Master, our family will not have a peaceful day in the future if my presence is known by Master Jing.
Master Jing was a title that only belonged to Jing Yichen. Usually, people didnt address him as Elder Master but Master Jing, because the Second Master of Family Jing was not his equal.
Ji Bo sounded very calm. The way he talked made him sound like an elder brother from the neighborhood.
As a matter of fact, Ji Bo was like that most of the time. He was mild and sunny and possessed a gentle personality. But he had another side that was unknown to the public.
I am well aware of Master Jings power. It is impossible to kill him. I dont want to be dragged down with you. You better find someone else.
Jing Yiran sipped the cocktail and said in an arrogant tone, You are indeed not capable enough but what if I offer my help? It is always easier to demolish a castle from inside than from outside. Dont you want to at least try when I am giving you the opportunity by being the mole for you?
If we seed, you will lose a strong enemy. I am a member of Family Jing, but I am not capable whenpared to you and I will never be able to beat you either, so dont worry about me being yourpetition. If we lose the battle, you will not be held responsible because I will be the one to take the me. Family Jing wont do anything to me except for some slight physical punishment or restriction of my activities. My properties might be taken away but in a couple of years, I will be able to get back to my original status again!
Ji Bo felt persuaded, but he still didnt want to put his blind faith in Jing Yiran.
He was such a ruthless man to desert his own family and had tried so many methods to kill Jing Yichen. It was an extremely dangerous thing to coborate with a man without morality.
Seeing Ji Bo wearing a gentle expression, Jing Yiran still couldnt fathom his thoughts. So he continued to tempt him. 90 % of the money of Family Ji is earned by you, but you only own a quarter of the inheritance. Isnt that a terrible deal? Dont you want to possess the entire Family Ji after you have been devoted to the family for so many years? Dont you want to be the only heir of Family Ji?
If you help me to remove those barriers in the family, I will also help you remove the others. Does that sound good? You wont lose anything in this deal, but I could lose everything! I dont care about the losses, as long as I am the only heir of my family. Hahaha!
What Jing Yiran said hit the weakest part inside Ji Bos heart.
Ji Jiameng and Ji Ling had been the barriers in front of him for a very long time and Ji Bo had wanted to remove them numerous times, but he was afraid that if he lost, he would be totally ruined.
But now, Jing Yiran had put forward a nearly perfect n. If they seeded in this coboration, both sides would gain tremendously and both of them had enough dope on each other, which made it impossible for either to betray the other. It could be a steady rtionship due to their vested interests.
Wealth was gained with risks! The risk and revenues always went hand in hand. If you wanted to get the wealth that no one else could get, then you would need to take the risk which no one else dared to. What was more, he was able to pass on all the risk to Jing Yiran and others so that he faced the least risk.
Ji Bo was sorely tempted.
He understood that the greed inside him was gradually swallowing him!
So many people want you to die, Jing Yichen, and it is not my fault. You should me yourself for being so powerful that everybody fears you and wants to work together to make you disappear from this world!
Ji Bo looked up. He no longer looked gentle but fiercely crazy!
Is your n solid enough? I suggest you exin it in detail to me so that I can help you modify it in case of any unexpected development. We dont want to be trapped, do we?
Ji Bo considered himself to be even more discreet than Jing Yiran.
Knowing that he agreed with what he suggested, Jing Yiran showed a vicious smile. Dont worry. It is a fool-proof n. He has almost no weakness but all human beings have atleast one. His is a very, very clear one...
Chapter 248 - Scream as Loudly as You Can
Chapter 248: Scream as Loudly as You Can
No one knew about the deal in the bar.
Jing Yichen was not God. He couldnt keep a track of everyones whereabouts at all times nor was he able to predict everything. He just tried to take preventive measures and handled every ident to the best of his ability, as and when it urred.
So far, he had been doing well and all was going ording to his n.
He spent most of his energy upon his wife. He went shopping with her, took a walk with her, and yed tennis with her. They were living a steady and happy life.
He had already dealt with every small crisis that popped up on different asions.
Now, he was going to present to his wife that person, who should have died ages ago.
Sitting in the car, Shangguan Ning asked him in confusion, Where are we going?
With one hand on the steering wheel, the other on her smooth hair that had grown an inch longer, Jing Yichen said softly, To your home.
What are we going to my home for?
Yang Wenshu is back from South Korea. She is there right now. Jing Yichen said calmly.
Yang Wenshu had been forced back home by Jing Zhongxius men. She had tried to escape many times but was caught every time. Of course, she had to go through much bitterness after being captured back every single time. She had be nearly inhuman after being tormented so many times.
Shangguan Nings hands clenched together. Hatred shed across her eyes. But she said in a calm tone, Okay, lets go.
A sh was going on at this moment at Family Shangguans vi.
Who is this crazy woman? Get out of here! Butler. This is not a homeless shelter. Stop letting beggars in. You better leave, as well. I dont want an incapable man working for Family Shangguan.
Shangguan, I am Wenshu! Please save me from those people. They are so vicious. They almost killed me. You must take revenge for me and throw them all into the prison.
Shangguan Zheng looked at the filthy woman, disdainfully. He couldnt believe that she was his elegant wife.
He had been very busy recently and barely came home. He had nearly forgotten that his wife was going through stic surgery in South Korea!
For some reason, there were always people in A Citying to ask him for help and every time he was able to finish the deed without many difficulties.
He was now the chief consultant of governments consultingmission of A City and was also involved with severalmission members to talk about national affairs and read through each use and article of the policies. He even went out on business and visited different cities to learn about the administration experience of other cities and provinces.
He liked the feeling of being in a high position and was enjoying being surrounded by others. He wanted to be a shining star whom everyone admired and looked up to!
What Shangguan Zheng didnt know was the Jing Yichen was behind all of this.
Jing Yichen tried to keep him busy so that he would not have time to plot something else. The n turned out to be sessful and he had no time toe to Shangguan Ning and ask her to help him get the position of Mayor again.
Get out of here now. I am too busy to care about some beggar. Butler, get her out! Shangguan Zheng ordered the Butler to throw her out without even taking a good look at her. He tossed a few bills towards her.
I have been married to you for so many years and have worked so hard for you and the family. Dont you dare to drive me away with just a few hundred yuans? No way! Shangguan Zheng, I want properties, I want money. I own this house and my name is on many other properties too. Dont you dare deny it!
Yang Wenshu roared and screamed, kneeling on the ground like a crazy woman.
The moment she said the words, a cold voice arose, You are not getting any penny from this family. It is time for you to pay!
Hearing the voice, Shangguan Zheng and Yang Wenshu both turned towards the door.
Shangguan Ning walked in with Jing Yichen following her. He was like a royal guard, there to protect and defend her.
Yang Wenshu instantly went crazy at the sight of her. She let out a creepy scream and then pulled a knife out of her sleeve, rushing towards Shangguan Ning.
Yang Wenshu used to be fast, but due to the torment she went through in South Korea, she had lost her sharpness. She was stiff and unstable.
Shangguan Ning grabbed the knife from Yang Wenshu without any efforts and then stabbed it deep into her shoulder des.
Yang Wenshu let out a scream of pain and dropped on her knees. Blood gushed out of her shoulders and smeared her shabby blouse.
Shangguan Zheng hadnt expected that his daughter could be fierce enough to stab someone without even blinking.
Was she the same obedient girl who never used to argue back?
Shangguan Ning scared him.
Shangguan Ning wasnt satisfied with just stabbing. She wanted to slice off Yang Wenshus flesh bit by bit until she bled to death.
Yang Wenshu had forced her mother to die.
Yang Wenshu had almost killed her husband.
Yang Wenshus life was not enough to pay back all of these debts.
She wouldnt kill her now. She would make her suffer every single day until she tasted extreme agony.
She pulled out the knife from Yang Wenshus body and then stabbed it on her thigh, making her scream in pain again.
Scream as loudly as you can, so that my mother can hear it sitting in heaven!
Tears trickled out of Shangguan Nings eyes.
Dead people couldnte back. Howsoever much she tormented Yang Wenshu, her mother was never going to return.
Jing Yichen hugged her from behind. It was his way of giving her strength. He said soothingly, Ning, what mother would have wished for is not revenge, but you to lead a happy life.
Shangguan Ning nodded and walked towards Shangguan Zheng with the knife which was dripping with blood. She gave him a cold look.
Shangguan Zheng screamed loudly seeing her look like a demon from hell. What are you holding the knife for? Are you trying to rebel against me? Stay away from me! I have nothing to do with your mothers death. I didnt force her. It was all this bitch Yang Wenshus deed. Go to her, stay away from me.
Shangguan Ning mocked him.
The biggest mistake my mother ever made in her life was to have married you. You knew how she died and also knew who killed her. But you still married that murderess. Hasnt my mothers spirit evere back to haunt you? How dare you lead such an easy life?
Chapter 249 - Shangguan Ning, the Crazy Daughter
Chapter 249: Shangguan Ning, the Crazy Daughter
Shangguan Zheng was obsessed with fame and had wanted to attain the highest position and would sacrifice everything for it but he felt extremely guilty about Huang Liyus death.
He was a smart guy and was well aware of how much Huang Liyu had loved him and how she died.
Yang Wenshu looked gentle and nice and more docile than Huang Liyu, but as a matter of fact, she was much more vicious than Huang Liyu. That she caused Huang Liyus death clearly showed how vicious she was.
Unfortunately, at that time, Yang Wenshu and Family Yang had offered substantial help to him so that he could be the Deputy Director of the Organization Department of A City and then had made him reach all the way to the General Secretary of the City Government. That was why he had no choice but to turn a blind eye to everything she did.
When he was interrogated by Shangguan Ning in this way, Shangguan Zheng felt quite scared, because he had been experiencing nightmares for a long time after Huang Liyus death. In the dream, he could see her blood everywhere across the home and could see hering to him for revenge with a knife in her hand.
Shangguan Zheng had demolished numerous rivals as an officer in so many years, but he had never used such a direct and rough way to force someone to die. Instead, he often used civilized methods such as sending rivals into the prison or ruining other peoples reputation.
Shangguan Nings voice sounded grievous and furious. She said with a hoarse voice, You can treat me in whichever way you want to, because I have never regarded you as my family. But my mother treated you so sincerely and how did you treat her back? If you had turned down Yang Wenshu and supported my mother wholeheartedly, how could she have possibly died?! If Yang Wenshu dies, you should be dead too! I will give you three days time, and three dayster, I wille back and watch you both kill yourselves! You will die in the same way as my mother did. She died in front of my eyes and you must do exactly that.
Shangguan Zhengs eyes widened as he spoke in an incredulous tone, Are you crazy? You, you, you want me to kill myself? You want to kill your father? It is unfilial, immoral!
With a cold expression on her face, Shangguan Ning said, How am I involved in it when youmit suicide? Both your wives killed themselves and your beloved younger daughter was burnt to death. You are just so sad that you killed yourself. Haha, what a loving family!
Yang Wenshus blood was all over Shangguan Nings hands because of the stabbing. The knife in her hands was dripping with blood. She looked cruel against the sunlight.
Lying on the floor, Yang Wenshu was still bleeding from her wounds. But she screamed in spite of the pain. You are lying. My daughter is not dead. Not dead! I wont kill myself! Huang Liyu the bitch killed herself. I have nothing to do with it. You are making a false charge against me.
Shangguan Ning came to Yang Wenshus side and trampled upon her fingers. The sound of cracking bones could be heard clearly.
One more bad word about my mother, and I will cut off your tongue. Also, let me tell you once again, your daughter Shangguan Rouxue is already dead!
No, no, no, you are lying! Yang Wenshu screamed lying on the floor. In spite of the piercing pain in the fingers, sheughed wildly as she red viciously at Shangguan Ning. Hahaha, my daughter is not dead. She called me yesterday. She is definitely going to save me, and is going to take revenge for me. You will all suffer and die.
Could Shangguan Rouxue be really be alive?
Shangguan Ning was confused for a moment but then didnt bother about it.
It didnt matter if Shangguan Rouxue was dead or alive. If she was actually alive, she would be in tremendous pain right now.
Didnt Yang Wenshu say that Shangguan Rouxue woulde and save her?
Wonderful!
In this way, she could check if Shangguan Rouxue was alive or not. It would be best if she were dead, otherwise she would have to kill her again.
Three dayster, I wille to watch you kill yourself. If you dare to run away, you will be a wanted criminal, nationwide!
Shangguan Ning tossed the knife to Yang Wenshu, picked up a tissue paper from the table and turned to walk away.
Seeing Shangguan Ning walking away, Shangguan Zheng suddenly realized that he no longer had the ability of restraining her any more. She no longer regarded him as her father.
He looked at Yang Wenshu who was groaning on the floor and became extremely furious.
Had it not been for this vicious bitch, Huang Liyu would not have died. If Huang Liyu had not died, Shangguan Ning would not have reached this stage where she was forcing him to kill himself. He would have been the Mayor admired by the public, the father-inw of the powerful Jing Yichen and the family member of the glorious Family Jing.
That would have been amazing. But this vicious woman had ruined it all.
He stepped forward and kicked at Yang Wenshu violently, making her scream in pain. Her wounds bled even more because of his kicks and she soon passed out.
Shangguan Zheng sat down on the sofa after he got tired of kicking her.
He still didnt believe that Shangguan Ning was going to force him to die. He was her father. How could she dare to do so? She had no mother and now she would lose a father as well.
He shook his head and told himself that Shangguan Ning was just saying it in anger.
As long as Yang Wenshu died, Shangguan Ning would not be so angry any more. There wouldnt be any more problems.
But he still needed to get himself a protection just in case.
Shangguan Zheng turned away to make a phone call. As an afterthought, he turned back and said to the frightened servant, Get a doctor to tend to her wounds so she wont die right now. She needs to live long enough for my crazy daughter to vent her anger.
The crazy daughter whom Shangguan Zheng was talking about, had alreadye back to normalcy now. She was gradually calming herself down as she leaned in Jing Yichens arms.
She hadnt expected herself to be so vicious as to stab a person. But if she was given a second chance, she would still do the same, maybe in a crueler way.
Jing Yichen held her shivering hands and then kissed them. He said softly, Silly girl, dont act so strong. Just ask Tiger to do the job next time, he is definitely not going to tremble. You are not professional enough.
Tiger heard the words but didnt turn around. Instead, he said with an honest smile while driving attentively, Yes, Lady, I am really skilled with the knife. Just ask me to do the work next time.
Shangguan Ning thanked Tiger. She was feeling better now.
She looked up and saw Jing Yichens eyes shining with brightness. He wasnt staying away from her despite her crazy outburst.
Chapter 250 - Simple Love
Chapter 250: Simple Love
Shangguan Ning asked softly, I stabbed her twice and crushed her fingers. Do you find me vicious?
Jing Yichen gave her an indulgent smile and said, Oh, my dearest, you have not seen how I behave. If you had, you would have found your own behaviour extremely gentle inparison. Maybe next time, I can teach you how to make people suffer. We can do anything with Yang Wenshu, otherwise the gunshot which I received would be a waste.
Shangguan Ning thought of the time when Yang Wenshu had asked Family Yang to hire the killer and Jing Yichen stepped up to take the bullet for her. Suddenly, she felt both happy and sad at the same time.
Her hand went searching for the scar that remained on his chest through the thin shirt.
Shangguan Nings hands were warm and provocative against his chest, making Jing Yichen go hard.
He held her hand and whispered, Baby, just hold on for a bit. Touch me when we are at home in anyway you want to, but not here, because I dont want to lose my control right now.
The sadness in Shangguan Nings heart vanished with his mischievous words!
She hadnt done anything except touch his scar. How could it have turned him on?
I dont want you to get pregnant right now. Otherwise I will not be able to touch you for a year once that happens. That is like killing me. What about nning for a child in two years time, instead?
Jing Yichen whispered at Shangguan Nings ears. The more he talked, the better he found the idea to be. What a wonderful thing it would be if only two of them were living in the house? Shangguan Ning only belonged to him. Once they had a son, he would need to share the love with him. That was a terrible deal!
Their unborn son couldnt have possibly imagined that his father was already jealous of him.
Shangguan Ning had a weird look on her face as she pinched hard at his waist. Embarrassed, she said furiously, Cant you just be normal? How can we... not have a child because you want... that! So ridiculous!
Before they got married, she had thought that Jing Yichen was really like what Zhao Anan had said C smart and intelligent, capable and steady, rational and mature.
But it was not until after marrying him did she realize that this distant and cold man could be even more childish and irrational than even she was.
Shangguan Ning said with a wrinkled nose, I like children. A family is onlyplete with children. Stop being silly!
Jing Yichen had a simple way not to get her pregnant C as long as he didnt eat the pills Mu Qing gave him, it was the safest of all preventive methods.
But you must promise that after the child is born, you will love me as always. You wouldnt ignore me because of the baby! I will continue to be No.1 in your heart!
No one would have expected that a guy as perfect as Jing Yichen could behave in such a childish manner and show this sort of insecurity. How much did he love her when he was even jealous of their unborn children.
Shangguan Nings heart meltedpletely. She held his face in her hands and started nting kisses C on his forehead, eyes, nose and his perfectly shaped lips. She totally forgot about Tiger who was driving the car.
Yichen, no one is more important than you in my heart. Our child will have his own life, his partner and he will eventually leave us when he grows up. Only you will always be by my side and you will always be my No.1 and I will continue to love you like I do now!
Shangguan Ning was a shy girl, but she never concealed her affection because of her nature when it came to important moments. If Jing Yichen didnt feel secure, she would always console him telling him how important he was in her heart.
She loved this man deeply and telling him how she felt was natural.
This man was willing to give her everything and she didnt want him to be sad. She wanted to tell him not to worry and that she loved him very, very much.
Happiness arose in Jing Yichens eyes. That was what he liked about his wife C she was frank about everything instead of him having to guess what she was thinking.
Men and women were different in their thought process. For men, guessing what women were thinking was a very difficult thing!
He looked deep into her eyes and instructed Tiger in a calm tone, Drive faster!
Shangguan Ning blushed slightly but didnt say anything.
...
Three dayster, Shangguan Ning brought Lu home with her after work and Jing Yichen brought Tiger alongside as well. They headed towards Shangguan Zhengs vi, together.
Shangguan Ning felt something different about Lu that day. She was behaving like a normal adult. But this itself was an anomaly because Lu was usually so childlike in her behaviour.
She addressed Shangguan Ning as Ms. Shangguan rather than Sister Shangguan.
Shangguan Ning felt Lus forehead and asked in concern, Lu, are you sick? Why do I feel... that you are a bit different today as if you have... grown up overnight.
Lu lowered her head. She didnt have any makeup on her face and looked like an innocent doll in daily life but at this moment, she seemed to be a doll with soul.
She was still dressed in sportswear and sneakers, it was not pink but ck. She was sporting the pigtails yet she looked quite agile and capable today rather than innocent and gullible.
Everything seemed to be the same but felt different!
For example, when she stretched out her hand to touch Lus forehead, Lu dodged it off initially and then allowed her to feel it without saying a word. Normally, she would have taken hold of her, threw herself into her arms and said that she was sick and wanted to eat chocte.

Chapter 251: Death by Force (Part One)
Tiger also found it strange when he, for the second time, saw Lu behaving differently. He looked at her, but found no apparent difference. So he continued to drive ahead.
Jing Yichen was the only one who had no visible reaction. Seated on the passenger seat, he leafed through the documents and texted every now and then.
Staying silent for a long time, Lu finally spoke, I dont know if I am sick. Maybe I am!
She still talked in a baby-tone, yet she looked really different.
Shangguan Ning didnt know what was going on with her. She was worried about her seeing her behave abnormally.
She took Lu into her arms softly and didnt release her even after she felt her stiffen. Instead, she patted her back gently and said in a mild tone, It is okay, you are fine, except that you can be childish sometimes and mature sometimes. It is very normal. We all have times when we are in a bad mood or a good mood. It is not a big deal. Make sure to tell me if you are not feeling well next time, so you can go home and rest instead of staying with me.
Lus body rxed after hearing what she said. But she didnt hold Shangguan Nings waist or bury her head in her arms.
When they came to Shangguan Nings home, she got off the car first. Jing Yichen followed behind her. But after just a few steps, Lu stopped him with her out-stretched arms.
Something is not right. Be careful! I will walk in first, you and Brother Jing follow me behind.
It seemed weird listening to her giving instructions in her baby-like voice.
But Shangguan Ning believed her out of instinct and immediately walked behind her and told her, Lu, you must be careful as well.
Jing Yichen didnt seem uneasy at all and held Shangguan Nings hand. He walked forward as if he were strolling through his own garden. He even asked Shangguan Ning, That cherry tree looks nice. We can get one in our house too.
Shangguan Ning liked cherries and he had been talking about nting one for her.
Shangguan Ning, who had been feeling anxious after Lus words, rxed hearing what Jing Yichen said.
A small smile hovered on her lips. I nted that tree. Uncle asked someone to buy the sapling and Huang Xinyi and I even had a fight over this very tree. I won so I carried the tree back home. But it didnt grow fruits for so many years that it slipped out of my mind. But it has borne fruits now. Very surprising!
They talked while walking into the living room of the vi.
No one was there. Tiger made a call and Lee Duo dragged a woman out with unkempt hair from the second floor.
He tossed her on the ground and then greeted Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning courteously.
Master, Lady, I have brought the woman. Also, Second Master is here with many men. Ladys father is with Second Master now.
After hearing what Lee Duo said, Jing Yichen still maintained his expressionless look. He was calm as if he had predicted it. But Shangguan Ning frowned.
Why was Jing Yiran here? He was everywhere!
Shangguan Zheng must have gotten him here. Since when did they both get so close?
Shangguan Ning was just thinking about it when Jing Yiran came downstairs with his men. Shangguan Zheng, who looked very energetic, was following him.
Jing Yiran patted Shangguan Zhengs shoulders andughed loudly, My dear father-inw, I will definitely treat you well. Dont worry! Ning was angry and said those words. Please dont take them seriously. She is just too spoiled. I will set her right in a few days. Then she will be totally fine!
Shangguan Ning got so angry by Jing Yirans shamelessness.
Who was he calling father-inw? Who did he want to set right? Maniac!
Shangguan Ning was angry but someone was even angrier than her. That was why suddenly Jing Yiran fell from stairs and when he was helped up, he had bruises all over the face.
Jing Yichen waved his hands and asked Lee Duo to retreat.
He said in a cold voice, The consequence of your stupid talk is that your arms and legs will be broken. But death makes people mute forever. I have allowed you to live till date, not because I fear my father, but because you didnt choose your birth and didnt choose to be a bastard! You better not touch my bottom-line, or you will end up being worse than your mother.
Jing Yiran pushed off the men beside him and walked to Jing Yichen with anger on his face. So, you admit that you killed my mother? Haha, didnt you refuse to admit anything? Arent you so good at pretending? So you stop pretending when the man who is able to control you, is not present?
Jing Yichens eyes were cold. He said distantly, It doesnt matter if I killed her. What matters is that you think I killed her. Also, it doesnt matter if you kill me. What matters is that you want me to die. But you are just too na?ve. Do you really think that Ji Bo is going to bring me and Family Jing down? Jing Yiran, you will pay dearly for what you have done. You are not too far away from death.
Jing Yiran almost went crazy when he heard the words. You bugged me again?! No, that is impossible! My bar cant be tampered with.
Bugged you? I didnt need to do anything. Ji Bo told me everything you said. You can ask him why he chose to do so. You will be driven out of the home now and be a beggar. As for now, you better get out of here, because someone is trying to kill himself. If you want to intrude, then the suicide team might be bigger. You can give thempany down to hell!
Jing Yiran was startled. He said incredibly, This is impossible. You are lying. It cant be Ji Bo. Why would he want to betray me?
Jing Yichen ignored him,pletely. Instead, he looked at Shangguan Zheng and said coldly, You can begin with your suicide now. Cut your wrist!
Shangguan Zheng didnt expect that Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen really nned to go through with it. He kicked Yang Wenshu on the floor in panic and shouted loudly, You bloody woman, go and die now! You forced Liyu to die back then and you must pay for that. Kill yourself and leave me alone!
Chapter 252 - Death by Force (Part Two)
Chapter 252: Death by Force (Part Two)
Yang Wenshu twitched. She wanted to wake up but found that she had no energy left.
Three days ago, she had been stabbed by Shangguan Ning and lost a lot of blood. Although the servants had helped her fix the wound so she wouldnt die too early, but they didnt take good care of her after that.
She used to scold and beat these servants when Shangguan Zheng was not around. Sometimes she would even cut their sry and prevented them from resigning. Therefore, the servants were scared and hated her a lot.
Now when such an excellent opportunity came in front of them, they took revenge by mistreating herpletely. They not only refused to feed her but also sprinkled salt upon her wounds with an excuse of disinfecting her wound. They made her suffer badly.
Shangguan Zheng hated her to such a degree that he kicked her every day until his anger was gone.
She had been tormented badly in the past three days.
She had multiple broken bones. Her face which had gone through stic surgery in South Korea, turned into a mess again enough to make her nearly unrecognisable.
She had gone through unbearable pain in the past three days both physically and psychologically. She couldnt bear another such day. Her willpower was gone and she had only one thought left C she wanted to die as soon as possible!
She couldnt stand it any more. It hurt so badly.
Why was her daughter not here to save her yet? Why hadnt she killed everyone by now?
Yang Wenshu was just thinking this when the sound of a gunshot ripped across the room.
The bullet pierced through Shangguan Zhengs heart and blood gushed out.
Shangguan Ning hadnt expected this sudden change in ns. She called out Dad subconsciously and was about to walk forward when Lus gunshot sound stopped her in her tracks.
Eyes wide and hands over his chest, Shangguan Zheng fell onto the floor slowly.
In the meanwhile, after Lus gunshot, a low moaning sound came from one corner of the vi.
Shangguan Ning stood under Jing Yichens shadow. She watched Lu holding a gun that hade from nowhere. She had the look of a killer and seemed to be apletely different person. She was just like a Killer God from hell, undefeatable.
Shangguan Ning couldnt reconcile the image of this woman with Lu!
Only now did Jing Yiran realize that Lu was with the team today. A touch of familiarity arose in his heart as he saw her. But it was just a passing emotion. The feeling disappeared so fast that he wasnt even able to register it.
Jing Yichen said in aposed voice, Lu, he is dead. Is there anyone else here?
Lu replied sharply, Two were here when we first entered the room. One died, the other escaped!
Jing Yichen nodded and said to Tiger, Find the man alive.
Tiger understood what he meant. Jing Yichen wanted to reach the person behind this n through that man.
It was the first time for Jing Yiran to watch Jing Yichen handling a situation. He couldnt help but feel something bizarre inside his heart. Judging from what he saw and heard, it seemed as if all was within Jing Yichens control.
The assassination took ce right in front of him and judging from the way the killer used the gun, he could have killed anyone. But Jing Yichen showedposure and no disy of panic throughout.
Jing Yichen wasnt surprised at his appearance either. Only Shangguan Ning next to him couldnt hide her astonishment.
It was impossible!
He couldnt be thatpetent to be able to predict the urrence of everything.
Was he thatpetent or was it that he didnt care about what was happening, because all of these matters were just minor things for him? That was why he could solve problems without difficulties.
Was he so actually less capable than Jing Yichen?
Jing Yiran had been quite interested in how drastically Lu had changed but he didnt have time for her currently, because now the matter had be beyond his prediction and control. Shangguan Zheng was dead, so all that he had been nning, was gone.
Everything he touched turned into dust!
He had a rival who was excellent and his partner was stupid like a pig. What chance did he have to win the fight?
Ji Bo was just such a goddamned traitor.
Whose side was he on, anyway? He had receivedrge numbers of benefits from him a couple of days ago yet he sold him out and partnered with Jing Yichen instead. That scumbag! He was definitely going to regret what he had done.
He was definitely going to take Jing Yichens life!
Everything of Family Jing would be his one day. He was going to run the business empire of Jingsheng and be the most powerful man in A City.
Shangguan Ning released Jing Yichens hands and walked to Shangguan Zhengs body whichy on the floor.
She had no tears in her eyes. She didnt feel a sense of sadness at the sight of her deceased father.
Her feelings wereplicated at the moment. She had wanted Shangguan Zheng to die, but when he really did die, she felt that he just passed away too fast. He had been standing right in front of her a second ago and turned into a corpse the next.
He was shot when he was kicking Yang Wenshu. So it was possible that the intention was to stop him from tormenting Yang Wenshu any further.
Who would havee to Yang Wenshus rescue and who would have killed for her?
Could it be that Shangguan Rouxue was still alive?
Be it or not, Yang Wenshu was going to die today.
Shangguan Ning didnt want her to live one more day.
Both her parents were dead now. If Yang Wenshu lived on, then those deceased would have died in vain.
Shangguan Ning tossed the knife to Yang Wenshu and spoke on a hoarse voice, If you dont want to be tormented any more, then kill yourself right now. Do it in the way my mother did it to herself. I will stand here and watch you bleed until you take yourst breath!
Chapter 253 - Death by Force (Part Three)
Chapter 253: Death by Force (Part Three)
Yang Wenshu had been tormented so badly that she wanted nothing more than a quick death.
She had never been like this before, when she felt that living one more minute was beyond her tolerance level.
The violent pain had already stopped her from feeling hungry but it made her feel extremely thirsty. The servants had given her very little water in the past three days and would have not given her even a single drop had they not been instructed to prevent her from dying.
On the first day, she tried to stay firm and believed that her daughter woulde to save her.
But she almost gave up on the second day.
On the third day, she gave up her dignity and just wanted to die!
She finally understood why Shangguan Ning had given her three more days to live. She wanted to torment her just like how her mother had been tortured.
It was too painful. She wanted to die, and she wanted to die now!
Death could end all of this pain. Death could free her from being bullied by these people. Death could make her turn into a ghost to take revenge upon these people.
Yang Wenshus wound had started to rot. She had had a fever for days now and her mind had turned hazy. She wouldnt live much longer even if Shangguan Ning didnt force her to die.
She picked up the knife which Shangguan Ning had tossed to the ground and put it on her wrist with trembling hands.
The cut from the sharp knife created a very deep gash on her wrist. The little blood which remained in Yang Wenshus body instantly gushed out.
Within a few seconds, the metallic smell of blood spread across the entire living room.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but think of the time when when she was ten years old and her mother had killed herself in front of her.
Tears leaked out of her eyes immediately. She whispered inside her heart, Mom, I have finally taken revenge for you. This woman should have died ages ago. So sorry for having taken so long to find her. I hope you wont me me for having blood of the enemy on my hands and for forcing father to die as well. You sacrificed your life for my sake, what I have done is so little. I hope it is enough to bring you constion.
Jing Yiran was astonished at the scene in front of him. He had never expected that the kind-hearted Shangguan Ning could be so fierce.
She had really forced Yang Wenshu to kill herself. Yang Wenshu wouldnt have lived long anyways, but she didnt want her to die a natural death. Instead, she wanted her to cut her wrist and kill herself!
Even the mildest animals turned wild in critical situations.
Shangguan Ning was like a crazy animal at the moment. Knowing the truth about her mothers death, she had turned into a murderess without hesitation.
In his opinion, she was as vicious as Jing Yichen, totally different from how she looked on surface.
Jing Yiran made a tut-tut sound. You are more vicious than even me. I cant seem to force the murderer of my mother to kill himself whilst you were able to do effortlessly. I should learn from you so that my mother could be consoled as well!
Shangguan Ning replied coldly, I have told you that Yichen has nothing to do with your mothers death. Touch my husband, and you will end up like Yang Wenshu. Remember, I keep my promises. But I may not have to force you to kill yourself, because you would not be a match against Yichen. It would take him a second to kill you.
She didnt care about what Jing Yiran thought of her.
Jing Yiran sneered and said, We will see who dies first. You should definitely live longer for me to kill you. I wouldnt want a boring fight.
With these words, he left the room with his men.
Jing Yichen came to Shangguan Ning and offered her his shoulders as he said softly, You are still being stubborn while trembling so hard. Dont do this kind of thing any more. She was a wicked woman and you should stand here with your chin high. Your father died of an ident and the murderer will be found soon, dont worry.
Shangguan Ning nodded with a pale face, trying to stand straight on her wobbling legs.
A long whileter, she said softly, Lets go and bury father next to my mother!
Huang Liyu had continued to love her husband deeply till the moment she died. She knew pretty well that he had betrayed her, yet she forgave him. Shangguan Ning knew that Shangguan Zheng wasnt suitable for her mothers deep love or to be buried with her mother. But she didnt want to go against thest wish of her mother.
After Shangguan Zhengs body was cremated, the ashes were brought to Huang Liyus grave so that the couple were united.
Seeing the picture and the characters on the gravestone, Shangguan Ning felt as if her heart was hollow. When Shangguan Zheng was alive, he kept trying to use her as a bargaining chip, so she only had loath and grief towards him and even refused to acknowledge him as her father. But after his death, all of what had happened in the past was gone. She had nothing but sadness inside her.
From this day on, she was an orphan.
Jing Yichen hugged her from behind and whispered in her ear, Ning, you have me. We are going to live happily for the rest of our lives. Let bygones be bygones. We have got many things to do and we will have a wedding soon. I will make you the happiest bride in the entire world.
Shangguan Nings tears eventually trickled down from her eyes.
She addressed the gravestone, sobbing, Mom, look, I have the best husband in the entire world. He loves me more than anyone else. You can be at peace.
Jing Yichen wiped off her tears gently and said in a soft voice, Mom, Ning is mine and nobody will be able to harm her with me around.
He gathered Shangguan Ning up in his arms and walked away from there, slowly.
Ning, dont cry any more. What if your mother thinks that I bully you?! Lets talk about the wedding. We mustnt dy it any more. If you find any more excuses this time, I will immediately announce to the world that Shangguan Ning is my wife...
Chapter 254 - Alive
Chapter 254: Alive
Previously, Shangguan Ning, like every other girl, used to dream about having a princess-like borate wedding. But as she became older and more experienced, the charm of grand weddings went away from her mind. Besides, she felt very lucky and happy at the moment. A wedding function was really nothing when she was already living a happy life.
As long as the days after the wedding were sweet and happy, it wouldnt matter if there was one held.
But Jing Yichen had always wanted to give her an unforgettable and grand wedding.
Lets wait for a bit. We have been so busy recently and there are still tons of things pending. We can hold it when the issues are settled.
I have already started the preparation. It has been going for half a year. Everything should be ready soon except for our clothes.
Shangguan Ning was really surprised hearing this. She reached out to pull his ears and said, Half a year? So you started the preparation right after we got the certificate?
He smiled as he thought back to the old times and replied softly, No, I started preparing even before we got the certificate. I didnt expect that we would get married so fast. I had thought about following the normal process which might have taken us half a year... thats why I started back then.
Shangguan Ningughed. She nted a kiss on Jing Yichens face and said, A kiss for your devotion!
Jing Yichen smiled and looked lovingly at her.
He hadnt spent much effort in courting his wife. Shangguan Ning was an honest woman whose face showed everything. It was very easy to see through her. She would get moved as long as he was nice to her and she would be even nicer to him, afterwards. She was easily satisfied and they had fallen in love naturally. In the beginning, he had loved her more, but now, it was impossible to tell which one of them loved the other deeper.
Its a deal. We can ask Grandpa to choose a day for our wedding. He has been fascinated with Yi Ching and Eight Diagram during these past two years, and he can handle this matter.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but smile. She thought that Grandpa Jing was a serious man but could be really childish sometimes as well. No wonder people talked about the old child all the time C when people reached a certain age, they behaved more like a child.
Jing Tianyuan turned out to be a man who studied Yi Ching and the Eight Diagrams, different from those sage-like people who were interested in these mysterious things.
She remembered that some fortune-teller once said that she had a good destiny who would bring fortune to her husband and that was why the family had gotten her engaged to Xie Zhuojun. He had been a sage and even told about her future. With her birthdate, he had made an estimation and kept saying good things about her as if she were a rare treasure.
That man was capable enough to convince everybody except for Shangguan Ning, because at that time, she thought that she must have possessed a terrible destiny to be forced to get engaged to a man lying in aa.
Leaning on Jing Yichens broad shoulders, Shangguan Ning now somehow believed what the fortune-teller had told her as she felt the steady life and warmth Jing Yichen gave her.
It had been her biggest luck to have met Jing Yichen. She really had a good destiny!
She didnt resist it anymore. The wedding would have to happen sooner orter. Although she didnt want the staff at thepany to know her true identity, she couldnt hide it forever.
Okay, then ask Grandpa to pick a date for us so that I can be a beautiful bride.
Shangguan Ning sounded happy. That made Jing Yichens heart tremble slightly.
He had always been guilty for not giving his wife a perfect wedding. Seeing that she had agreed with what he said, he suddenly felt that what he had been nning was all worth the while.
My wife will definitely be the most beautiful bride! Jing Yichen was very happy. He did believe that Shangguan Ning was going to be the most beautiful bride.
We will go and pick the clothes in a couple of days. I have hired a designer from UK for your wedding gown. Tell her what you like, and we can make the most expensive and luxurious one. We are rich after all!
Jing Yichen sounded like a nouveau riche, not the president of a sessful enterprise. Shangguan Ning suspected that he was the son of a coal mine owner!
She chuckled leaning over his body.
Jing Yichen also chuckled as he tried to scare her. Honey, why are you chuckling so hard in this empty and dark graveyard? Arent you worried that those sleeping here would wake up ande to you?
Shangguan Ning instantly grabbed his neck and held onto it. In a timid voice, she said, Nonsense! These are all people from Family Shangguan. All of them were my rtives and I have never offended them. Why would theye to attack me? I have never done anything bad in my life. Stop scaring me!
They reached the car and Jing Yichen helped her climb in. Then he said with a smile, Silly girl. There are no ghosts or demons. I was just teasing you. Even if there are, they wont dare toe. Grandpa says that I am born to fight the ghosts.
Many people had died because of Jing Yichen, and if there were really ghosts who took revenge, he couldnt have been alive at this moment.
The scariest thing in the world were not ghosts, but humans.
For example, there was Jing Yiran who and the beautiful woman sitting opposite him who were controlled by hatred.
Shangguan Rouxue? Arent you supposed to be dead?
How can I die when Shangguan Ning is still alive? But I will kill her soon. Dont be sad, ok?
The woman sounded gentle and nice. She still had a graceful smile on her but looked evil.
Chapter 255 - Vicious Woman
Chapter 255: Vicious Woman
Jing Yirans eyes shed for a second before he covered his expression.. Then he crossed his legs and said in a nonchnt tone, Do as you wish. She is not my woman and I dont care whether she is alive or dead. I can lend you a knife to kill her, but you must also lend me one to kill the man I want dead.
I am assured to hear what you have said. Maybe we can work together. Shangguan Rouxue massaged her slightly plump belly, not with motherly affection but with conspiracy on her mind.
She didnt trust Jing Yiran. But he was the only one who could be used at the moment. This man was a double-edged sword who had no morality and who would do as he wished. But this man could be the sharpest weapon if she could use him well. Shangguan Ning was definitely going to die.
Shangguan Ning had made her lose everything, even her mother. She was going to avenge her.
But she didnt want her to die easily.
She wanted to watch Shangguan Ning lose everything and be a woman who had nothing left. Then she would be allowed to die!
She asked although she knew the answer, Who do you want to kill?
Jing Yiran didnt care about her little trick, so he said in a straightforward manner, My good brother, Jing Yichen!
Then we can work together. I can rece my sister to be thedy of Family Jing and then we can work together to kill Jing Yichen. By that time, all will be ours!
Jing Yiran looked at Shangguan Rouxue as if he were staring at an idiot. With wide eyes, he burst out. Are you mental?
Jing Yiran didnt understand how Shangguan Rouxue could be so confident. Did she think that a man like Jing Yichen was like those stupid men whom she was used to? He had met numerous women during the past thirty years and ended up choosing only Shangguan Ning to be his only wife! Or did Shangguan Rouxue assume that just because her family name was Shangguan, so she could move Jing Yichen as well?!
If Family Jings enormous wealth could be taken away by an outsider so easily, what was he fighting with Jing Yichen every day for? He was the Second Master of Family Jing who grew up in Family Jing and knew many secrets of Family Jing as well. But even he couldnt move an inch of the properties which were in the control of his father Jing Zhongxius hands no matter how hard he tried.
Shangguan Rouxue was an outsider and it was ridiculous of her to want to get Family Jings properties. She had a wild imagination!
Family Yang was ruined overnight and Family Ji, the second biggest family in the entire A City, one that was full of people and talents, didnt even dare to offend Family Jing, because Jing Zhongxiu alone was able to make people scared. He was even more influential and frightening now than when he was younger. But, Jing Yichen was a man who was even more vicious than him and no one in A City was able to escape from their eyes.
Maybe Jing Yichen had already gotten hold of the contents of the conversation between this disguised Shangguan Rouxue and himself.
No. Actually, Jing Yichen wouldnt even want to look at them, because in his eyes, they were not worth the attention. He only acted when the big families of A City came together to fight against Jingsheng Enterprise.
Shangguan Rouxue didnt care about Jing Yiran mocking her. She had a very confident smile on her pretty face.
I know it sounds incredible, but even the most incredible thing can happen. Women, especially beautiful women, often have their own ways to deal with men. It is very easy to grasp a mans heart.
She said so while showcasing her perfect side profile. Even Jing Yiran had to admit that she was indeed very good-looking.
But she was just good-looking.
Not all men would fall for good looking women.
Unless...
Jing Yiran looked up all of a sudden. An unprecedented sharp look shed in his eyes as he said in a sinister tone, You n to use drugs?
Histe mother was the one who had used this method sessfully!
Even a man like Jing Zhongxiu had fallen into her trap. Everyone who knew the truth whispered in private that Zhang Rong was the most cunning woman in the entire A City.
Therefore, Jing Yiran hated it most when women drugged men. Also, maybe it was because Shangguan Ning was once drugged and had almost died, that Jing Yiran didnt drug women any more. He could torment those who were supposed to be dead, but he wouldnt kill the innocent.
Drugging was the easiest and the most effective method of all!
A vicious woman like Shangguan Rouxue was the most suitable candidate to handle Jing Yichen.
Jing Yiran decided to watch out for Shangguan Rouxue, because she might probably use the same method to set him up sometime in the future!
Hahaha, Shangguan Rouxue, your method is very vicious but the result might be excellent. As long as you can sleep with my brother, Shangguan Ning will definitely leave him!
Although he hated the method of drugging, but if Jing Yichen was going to be the victim, then he was more than willing to ept the proposal.
But isnt it not very convenient for you to be in bed with such a big stomach? Jing Yiran nced at Shangguan Rouxues plump stomach and was exposed to apletely new side of this vicious woman. It was said that pregnant women became emotionally fragile and emotional, but Shangguan Rouxue was theplete opposite.
True. That is why I will wait until my child is born before I start my n. Ina couple of months, the foetus will be seven months old and I can deliver then. Shangguan Rouxue spoke in such a soft way that she sounded as if she were a very kind mother. But what she said gave Jing Yiran goosebumps.
She was simply too mean.
Even to the child in her belly!
It would be a premature delivery and the baby could possibly die, or even if he lived on, he could be very weak.
This is mine and my husband Xie Zhuojuns child. So I will give birth to him and after Shangguan Ning dies, the three of us will be united. Do you think Zhuojun would be so happy to see the baby?
Jing Yiran shivered. He felt so sorry for Xie Zhuojun who might go into aa again when he sees the baby being delivered by Shangguan Rouxue in her 7th month of pregnancy! Family Xie wont have a peaceful day for the rest of their lives.
Could this be the reason why Jing Yichen had secretly forbiden all hospitals to perform abortion on Shangguan Rouxue?
Chapter 256 - Zhao Anan, the Shouting Shrew
Chapter 256: Zhao Anan, the Shouting Shrew
Jing Yiran had guessed right. Jing Yichen had already known that the child in Shangguan Rouxues belly was that of Xie Zhuojun and that was why he wanted her to keep this baby. If the baby wasnt Xie Zhuojuns, then he would have a very rxed life in the future. But with the mother and the baby with him, their family would always be in a mess. They would always fight without needing any other causes.
Xie Zhuojun would only realize what a big mistake he had made after he was tormented by Shangguan Rouxue for the rest of his life!
Also, Jing Yiran had guessed one more thing right. Jing Yichen had known that Shangguan Rouxue was not dead yet and that she met Jing Yiran on this day.
Shangguan Rouxue didnt mean anything to Jing Yichen, but since she wanted to hurt Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen had already sent people to keep an eye out for her.
After Family Yangs vis were burnt down, the police had found three secret channels below the vi that led to different ces. The traces showed that only three people had managed to escape.
All big families had these kind of secret underground channels. While Family Yang only had three, Family Jing had more than a dozen of such underground channels.
Therefore, it was not a strange thing that someone managed to escape the house.
Jing Yichen hadnt been certain about Shangguan Rouxue until she called Yang Wenshu.
What Yang Wenshu saidter also proved that Shangguan Rouxue was still alive. When she cried loudly that her daughter was not dead, Shangguan Ning had thought that she was talking nonsense, but Jing Yichen knew that she was telling the truth.
Shangguan Ning had asked him if Shangguan Rouxue was dead or not, to which he had replied clearly that Shangguan Rouxue was still alive.
Actually, Shangguan Ning didnt care if Shangguan Rouxue was alive or dead. As long as she didnt create any trouble, it didnt matter how she lived.
She had already taken revenge from Yang Wenshu.
In the brightly-lit study, Jing Yichen nodded after hearing Tigers report. He wasnt surprised.
He heard many secret reports about how others nned to demolish Family Jing every single day, but didnt give them much attention, because Family Jing was very well protected.
No methods or tricks or power would be able to demolish Family Jing, which was powerful enough to surpass any family or individuals.
He knew pretty well what Jing Yiran was nning. They had been fighting with each other for so many years and been through so much. But they didnt kill each other because the situation had been veryplicated. Therefore, Jing Yirans n would not be realized so quickly.
Jing Yichen didnt worry much about those matters.
He was trying to be a good husband who drove his wife to work and got her back, and created romantic surprises for his wife. What was more, he was forced to take the medicine every single day!
Shangguan Ning kept an eye out on him for that.
Jing Yichen was about to wave Tiger out when there was a knock at the studys door. Shangguan Ning pushed the door open and peeked inside. Done with your business?
Jing Yichen said gently, Come in. Tiger, you can leave for now.
Shangguan Ning walked inside with a mug of water and passed it to Jing Yichen. Then she gave him the pills as she said smilingly, Honey, time for pills!
She only called him honey when she was trying to feed Jing Yichen the pills. That made Jing Yichen feel numb throughout his entire body.
Jing Yichen took the pills and swallowed them down in one go. Then he made his wife sit upon his thighs and said smilingly, You really want to give me a baby, so you force me to eat medicine every day? Or, do you want me to eat the medicine and then pull you into my arms?
Shangguan Ning was not in a hurry to get pregnant. She was just worried that he had some physical problems and hoped that the pills could cure him.
You are sick, and I am here to deliver the pills, not myself! Since the pills are over, we need to visit the hospital. So can you please release me?
We dont need to visit the hospital today. It iste, Mu Qing must be resting.
Too bad, Mu Qing is on duty today. If you arent going, I will go myself.
Having said the words, Shangguan Ning stood up and turned to go.
Jing Yichen caught up with her and took her in his arms as he said softly, I obey everything that my wife says. Lets go to the hospital!
They changed and then Jing Yichen drove Shangguan Ning to Family Mus Hospital. The moment they entered, they heard a woman cursing badly.
You scumbag, you are trying to trap me. I will call the police and send you to prison. You will never get out of there in your entire life!
Get the needle away from me or I will bite. I have no feelings on my hands, all because of you. You are crazy and a pervert. Let me tell you, Mu, it is useless in this way. I am a girl with principle and I dont love you at all, not at all!!
Come and help me! Someone is kidnapping and raping girls! Come and help...
This is a terrible hospital! Run away and dont evere back! Mu Qing, the dean is a maniac. He is keeping a pure and beautiful girl as his prisoner.
...
Mu Qing was standing in front of the crazy woman with a calm expression on his face. He was reading a patients history and was making the notes every now and then. The cursing and screaming didnt seem to affect him at all.
The door was opened and Mu Qing looked up. Smilingly, he said, Master Jing, Sister, you are here.
Shangguan Ning didnt hear Mu Qings greeting because she was staring at Zhao Anan right in surprise.
Zhao Anan would have looked like a beautiful girl with her mouth shut.
Thanks to her six months time at the hospital in Germany, her skin was without any tanning because of theck of sunshine. She was a beautiful woman with exquisite facial features, wearing a rose colouredce dress along with a pair of golden high-heels, making her legs look long and slender. More importantly, she looked healthy.
But she kept cursing and whimpering at the top of her voice as if she wanted everyone to hear what she was saying. That made her look like a shouting shrew on the street!
Chapter 257 - No Laughing! I Am Angry!
Chapter 257: No Laughing! I Am Angry!
What are you doing here, Anan? Are you the one who have been screaming all this time?
Shangguan Ning couldnt believe what she was seeing. Zhao Anan was really energetic for having screamed for so long and so loudly. Did Mu Qing feed her some energizing pills?
Zhao Anan wanted to stand up and throw herself into Shangguan Nings arms the moment she saw her. But she was really sore and had no energy to move.
Oh my family! We have been separated for ten years and grey hair has crawled upon me whilst you are still young and healthy! Finally, you are here, else I would have been tormented to death by Mu, the scumbag!
Zhao Anan was whining, but she was spouting nonsense! They had been separated from each other for less than ten days and she had very lovely raven hair rather than grey.
Zhao Anan seemed to have be much more capable in Chinesenguage than she had been a few days ago.
Ha, so she had spent just a couple of days with Mu Qing and became more energetic and intelligent. A top-notch doctor boyfriend did make a difference.
Oh my family, why did you abandon me and leave me alone with him? Do you know how bitter the past few days have been for me? It is very hard to summarize everything in one word. Do you know how perverted he can get? He uses needles and feeds me pills with his mouth. He even strips me naked and tosses me onto the bed. I am pressed under him and he is very heavy. My entire body has been...
Before she could finish her words, Shangguan Ning dashed towards her and covered her mouth with her hands!
She didnt want to know anything more about how perverted Mu Qing could get. What she was curious about was how shameless Zhao Anan could get?
Ms. Zhao, could you please not regard me as an insider? Can you keep what happens between you two inside your belly instead of telling me.
Shangguan Ning said with clenched teeth as she red at Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan nodded obediently as her mouth was covered.
But the moment Shangguan Ning removed her hand, she started to bellow again. How can I have such a bitter life? My mother leaves me, my cousin leaves me when he gets a wife, my best friend leaves me when she gets a husband. I am left all alone in a mental hospital and tormented every day by a mental man. I have be a zombie. I dont want to live any more. It is a terrible life. I want to kill myself! I want to jump off the building!
She was shouting when her throat ached and she started to cough.
Scumbag Mu! I am thirsty, get me some water.
Mu Qing abandoned Jing Yichen and came to Zhao Anan immediately. He picked up the cup from his table and brought it to her lips, carefully. Mu Qing didnt leave her side until she finished drinking.
He had just left when Zhao Anan, started to shout again. Come and help me! Someone is illegally imprisoning me. Someone is forcing marriage on me. The Head of this hospital is inhuman. Donte to this hospital ever...
Seeing that Zhao Anan had no intention to stop, Shangguan Ning looked at Mu Qing withpassion.
He must be going through hell recently, for he had to listen to her cursing and ndering of Family Mus Hospital whilst taking care of her.
Jing Yichen was talking with Mu Qing, so Shangguan Ning sat down next to Zhao Anan and said with augh, Alright, alright, just stop! I am tired of listening to your screaming all the time. But I have to admit that you are good at cursing without repetition, even though you have a limited vocabry.
Zhao Anan wanted to twist her head to look at her, but her neck was too stiff to do anything. Annoyed, she ordered Shangguan Ning, Get your chair in front of me. I cant re at you at this angle.
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. She carried the chair to sit in front of her and said, You are behaving like an Empress right now.
Zhao Anan also found it amusing, but tried hard to control her reaction.
Honestly, it had been Shangguan Ning who deserted her at the beginning so that she had been taken advantage of, by scumbag Mu. She should be angry right now and not be amused by her so easily.
She shouldnt be forgiven and must realize her mistake, otherwise she would abandon her again next time.
For Zhao Anan, it was worse than being sentenced to death. She was an outgoing and restless person and liked to move her limbs all the time.
She mustnt find a doctor as a boyfriend in her next life.
Shangguan Ning, have you realized your mistake?
She had no choice but to shout when she couldnt move. So Shangguan Ning covered her ears and said, Ms. Zhao, could you please lower your voice? I am 27 years old, not 72. I am not deaf, alright. Or are you trying to take revenge by turning me into one? At this rate, you will ruin your own voice. You shouldnt try to ruin your organs just because your boyfriend is a powerful doctor!
Zhao Anan was amused by her words.
She had been screaming in this way for many days in a row. She bellowed more in the evening than during the day. But for some reason, Mu Qing added some medicine in the water that kept her throat moist, and as a result, her voice seemed to stay clear and loud. Therefore, she shouted even more loudly than before. She wasnt scared of ruining her throat with Mu Qing around.
Having been exposed by Shangguan Ning, she was already roaring withughter inside her heart. But she didnt want to show any weakness yet, so she kept a straight face.
You are ruthless! I treat you as a sister but you abandon me like trash. I am very pissed and the consequence will be serious!
Zhao Anan and Shangguan Ning had the same temper. They couldnt hold back their words and they had no evil thoughts. What they were thinking was always visible on the face, so Shangguan Ning soon understood what Zhao Anan wanted.
She looked at Zhao Anan with head tilted and said all of a sudden, Aha? Do you want tough? What if I tickle you?
If you dare to tickle me, Shangguan Ning, I will... ahhh!
Hahahahah, stop it, ahahah....
Chapter 258 - Be My Bridesmaid
Chapter 258: Be My Bridesmaid
Soon a roar ofughter could be heard in the hospital, so much so that the staff had to exin to other patients constantly, A new patient of hypochondria is here at the hospital today, please excuse us for the noise. Doctor Mu will cure her very soon.
In Mu Qings office, two women who were both 27 years old and whose birthdays came one after the other, were ying andughing loudly. That made Jing Yichen and Mu Qing shake their heads helplessly.
Finally Shangguan Ning let go of her and then tried to persuade Mu Qing to finally pull off the three silver needles from her neck.
Zhao Anan didnt think like a normal girl. The moment she could move, she threw herself at Shangguan Ning and forced her into the corner, and then started to tickle her hard.
Shangguan Ning was very ticklish. The moment Zhao Anan touched her, she already startedughing so hard that she copsed to the ground.
I will tickle you and make youugh hard too, haha!
Shangguan Ningughed as she scolded her, Zhao Anan, you are taking revenge on me for my good deed. I pleaded with Mu Qing to make you move, how can you bully me? You should go to Mu Qing instead.
Zhao Anan turned a deaf ear to what she said and continued to tickle her hard.
She was not silly. It was easy for her to deal with Shangguan Ning, but she was still not capable enough to deal with Mu Qing, who was a trickster.
She had be obedient. She could scold at Mu Qing however much she wanted, but if she wanted to run away, then Mu Qing would definitely torment her in bed so much that shell have no strength even to hold chopsticks. He would also prevent her from moving for days. That was worse than killing her!
She remembered that Mu Qing wasnt that capable ten years ago. But now he wanted to do it so many times in one night and each time couldst as long as half an hour or even one hour. It used to take him only a quarter of an hour, before.
Honestly, what had he eaten during these years so that he became so capable in bed?
After making the fuss for a while, Zhao Anan soon got so tired that she copsed to the ground and sat next to Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning was stillughing. She put her hands upon Zhao Anans shoulders and stayed silent. Her best friend was next to her and so was her husband and her best friends man in front of them. She felt that it was wonderful when four of them were together in the same room.
A tear trickled out of Zhao Anans eye. She wiped it off on the sly and started to smile brightly.
It was the happiest moment of her life.
She could see her beloved man next to her every day when she woke up. She could see the love in his eyes, and she could feel his clumsy yet loving care.
She could do the most intimate thing with him every night. She could hear him saying I love you to her numerous times and still felt excited every time he said that.
This was a life which she had never dreamt about having before. It was a happy feeling which she had been rejecting all this time, because she was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and would want more. She was afraid that her life would be too short to taste this sweet happiness.
She was very grateful to Shangguan Ning for pushing her ruthlessly towards Mu Qing.
She was a bit confused, but she was very satisfied.
No matter what was going to happen in the future, she felt that her life was perfect after receiving these days happiness. She would not have any regrets even if she died at this moment.
Zhao Anan hugged Shangguan Ning and said softly inside her heart, Thank you, my dearest!
Shangguan Ning seemed to sense her mood and understood what she was going to say, so she said happily, You are wee, my dearest, your happiness is my happiness too, so I wish you all the best!
Zhao Anan chuckled, You are so self-obsessed. I am not thanking you for anything. I havent forgiven you yet. You must treat me to the biggest meal and the most expensive leather clothes. Then I will think about forgiving you.
Shangguan Ning chuckled. Alright,dy, I will treat you to the biggest meal and buy you the most expensive things. It is your cousins money, anyway.
You spendthrift woman! My cousin is working hard to make money and you dare to spend so much. I will report you!
Haha, help yourself! I dont think I will be the one to be scolded!
Alright, alright, I will definitely be the one to be scolded! Jesus, he forgot his own cousin when he got a wife. Havent you also forgotten that I was your matchmaker?
You keep threatening us with what little you have done. I am so tired of it. So Matchmaker Zhao, I will give you a red packet to seal your mouth.
Speaking of matchmaker and red packet, Shangguan Ning was reminded of one other thing. Anan, your cousin and I will host the wedding soon. Be my bridesmaid, will you?
Zhao Anan patted her chest as she said happily, No problem! I will be the bridesmaid.
She had forgotten that she was not wearing the leather jacket which she usually wore. Instead she was wearing a very slim-fitce dress, so that when she patted her chest, her breasts shook. She frowned.
Shangguan Ning hadnt seen her wearing such sexy clothes after knowing her for so long. So she teased, Ah, look at you, a woman in love! Dressed in different clothing style. Now you are a sexy woman, not a tomboy anymore. No wonder Mu Qing cant resist you!
Zhao Anan spoke like a cat with a trapped tail, Nonsense! It is not by choice, but by force. Scumbag Mu forces me to wear these. He likes the style, but I dont. I cant even walk with the dress on.
She said as she kicked off the golden high-heels off her feet and stood on the ground barefoot. Then she ripped a slit off the slim fit dress.
Hmm, now it feels nice!
Shangguan Ning held the corner of her dress at the sight of her undy like move, You just ripped off the newest Chanel dress. When youe with me to try the gown tomorrow, you mustnt do this, alright? It would be too expensive for us to pay for the damages!
Did I promise you to try the gown tomorrow? Zhao Anan was a bit confused.
Yes, you did!
Shangguan Ning sounded very certain. She didnt look like someone who would lie about anything ever. So, Zhao Anan looked at her in confusion and uncertainty.
Alright, then I will go with you. I promise that I will not rip off too many dresses.
Chapter 259 - Mu Qing’s Promise (Part One)
Chapter 259: Mu Qings Promise (Part One)
During the past few days, Mu Qing had received several small wounds over his body, on his arms, legs, neck, chest. They were either scratches or teeth marks.
He didnt try to hide these achievements, because they made him feel delighted.
All of these were Zhao Anans work. She scratched him or bit him, hurting him everywhere. But he treated these as sweet nothings.
When Zhao Anan slept with him every night, she would struggle at the beginning. And then she wouldpletely forget her resistance and start to kiss him in a blurry state. She would hold tightly to him and subconsciously call out his name when she was in the middle of making love to him.
During the past few days, he had spent the entire 24 hours with Zhao Anan and refused to be away from her for one single minute, no matter how much she scolded him or called him names.
He even rang up Zhao Zhao, who came to visit her daughter at the hospital and left in delight after seeing her daughter getting fitter and fatter than before. Zhao Anan med her for being cruel as if she were her stepmother.
Mu Qing didnt want to treat Zhao Anan in this way, but there was no other solution If she could move an inch, she would definitely leave him without hesitation.
If Zhao Anan wanted to hate him for what he did, then she could go ahead and do that. As long as he could be with her, nothing else mattered.
Or maybe he should try to learn from Jing Yichen to see how he could turn a woman he had known for just one month into his wife...
He was so fast, much faster than Mu Qing who had not been able to marry the girl whom he had known for ten years.
Mu Qing looked at the two women who were whispering sitting in the corner,pletely different in personalities. Then he gave the newly prescribed medicine to Jing Yichen as he asked him about the experience of marriage by force.
Master Jing, how did you manage to marry Sister? Cant you give me some tips?
Jing Yichen took the medicine and threw a calm look at him as he said, Do you think that I will sell out my cousin so easily?
Startled, Mu Qing realized that he had forgotten about Jing Yichen and Zhao Anan being cousins.
Jing Yichen was cold to everybody, including Zhao Anan. So it was almost impossible to understand that they were actually close. Also, he didnt like it when Zhao Anan was close to Shangguan Ning so Mu Qing had never expected that Jing Yichen would take her side.
Then what should I do so that you can give your cousin to me? I am your doctor, dont you think that you should be a bit considerate?
Jing Yichen said without changing his expression, Well, it is true that I should consider if your treatment is worth my investment or if I should withdraw the investment...
Mu Qing immediately showed his most sincere smile and said, Hey, please dont. You dont need to consider anything anymore. I will prescribe you the best medicine so that you and sister can have a very happy life!
Jing Yichen nodded. That is good!
Jing Yichen knew that Mu Qing was very nice towards Zhao Anan and that Zhao Zhao had always wanted Zhao Anan to marry into Family Mu as well.
But Zhao Anan was well aware of her disease and kept saying that she didnt want to be anyones burden. She felt guilty of burdening her mother so much that she didnt want to do the same to Mu Qing or his family.
He was Zhao Anans cousin. Although he maintained his distance from her, he always respected her opinion in important matters. If she didnt want to marry anybody, he would support her.
Also, Mu Qing was bearing the entire hope of Family Mu and they wouldnt want Mu Qing to marry an infertile woman.
Mu Qing was also very responsible towards his family and had a strong sense of familial duty. He had been getting ready to marry the daughter of Family Yang, Yang Muyan just for the sake of his family after Zhao Anan broke up with him.
Rumor was that Yang Muyan was a smart woman but looked extremely ugly and was always sick. Everyone who had seen her stayed away from her. Besides, she was a proud woman so she was still unmarried at the age of 30. But she was Lady Yangs favorite granddaughter and half of the familys properties were kept as her dowry. Therefore, many people wanted to marry the girl.
Mu Qing had once visited Family Yang to check up on Lady Yangs health, when he ran into Yang Muyan who mostly stayed indoors. He had thought that Yang Muyan was hideous, had e all over her face and looked emancipated and pale like a ghost. But Yang Muyan fell in love with Mu Qing at first sight and enjoyed talking with him very much. That drove Mu Qing off their house without finishing even the checkup.
But he would have sacrificed his own happiness just to develop Family Mus Hospital by marrying this horribly looking woman, because Family Yang once said that as long as Mu Qing could marry Yang Muyan, then Family Yang would offer presents worth billions of yuan, which could be used for the development of Family Mus Hospital.
It was not until when Jing Yichen invested in Family Mus Hospital that Mu Qing stopped thinking about marrying Yang Muyan.
But due to this, Jing Yichen was afraid that Mu Qing would give up on Zhao Anan for the sake of the family and hence he was reluctant about this arrangement..
Now, it seemed that Mu Qing had got even more devoted to Zhao Anan that he wanted to marry her despite the pressure from the family.
But this was just what he could see. What Jing Yichen wanted was a positive answer and a clear promise from Mu Qing.
Mu Qing, does your family approve of your rtionship with Anan? I dont want you to y with her.
Jing Yichen sounded cold but Mu Qing was not scared.
He hadnt expected that Jing Yichen would ask him this question so fast. But he already had the answer inside his heart.
Master Jing, it doesnt matter if my family approves of my rtionship with Anan or not. It is my decision and no one has the right to intervene in my marriage and my life. I am true to Anan and even ten years earlier, I was true to her even though I was immature. But now I understand clearly what is the most important thing. I will not give up and Anan will only marry me! Mu Qing looked serious and sounded quite determined.
Jing Yichen broke his dream ruthlessly. But Anan doesnt seem so willing to marry you, and you are unlikely to ignore what your family thinks, especially what Old Mu thinks.
Mu Qing got slightly pale but he said with determination, What I can tell you is that Anan likes me and she is willing to marry me as well. Both my parents and my grandpa like her too. What they are worried about is that we wont have our own children. But I will convince them, because I didnt get together with her just for fun.
Chapter 260 - Mu Qing’s Promise (Part Two)
Chapter 260: Mu Qings Promise (Part Two)
Jing Yichen said, Anans case is quite special and I have to be cautious. Since you have epted her, then you mustnt give up halfway. We will never know when her disease would return and how much longer can she live for when she gets sick again. You have the right of choice now, but you mustnt regret it once you have made the decision.
Jing Yichen looked at Zhao Anan who was cursing Mu Qing at the time but seemed very happy.
Zhao Anans doctor in Germany once said that she seemed to be doing fine at the moment, and it had been lucky for her to recover to this degree.
But no one was certain if her disease would return anytime soon.
Zhao Anan had already epted death as her future. She had nned not to get married after she was diagnosed with the disease. That was why she broke up with Mu Qing without hesitation and refused to be involved with him any more.
But now they were involved with each other again. Also, if Zhao Anan was going to bepletely healthy throughout her entire life and her cancer didnt return, then must she live her life alone?
If everyone else had a family and she was the only one left behind, then it would be too cruel for someone as cheerful and vibrant as her.
Mu Qing understood what Jing Yichen meant. He was worried that Zhao Anan would not live long enough and that he would abandon her when her disease returned.
But how could that be possible?
He would always stay by her side.
Mu Qings heart ached. He somehow hated himself for not being able to save the woman he loved so much, with his professional skills as a doctor!
The modern medication was still not able to cure cancerpletely. It was not certain that she would be able to live happily and healthily till the end.
But even if she only lived for one year, one month or one day, he would want to stay by her side and cherish every second and minute shared with her.
I believe that Anan is going to be fine. She is outgoing and very healthy. She is definitely going to live with me for the rest of our lives. Science would get more and more advanced and our hospital has made a huge progress in the studies of cancer. Cancer can be restrained, although it cant be curedpletely yet!
Mu Qing had never revealed to anyone else about the achievement of the hospital studies, because that was the biggest secret of their hospital. If the research turned out to be sessful and then it would cause a sensation. But they were just at the preliminary stage where the medication worked well on animals, but not on human beings yet.
Cancer hadnt been his specialization earlier. He was good at surgeries and Chinese medicine. But after Zhao Anan got sick, he had put a lot of effort into the studies of cancer cells. Even Mu Wensheng underwent studies in this aspect and went to other cancer hospitals for exchange studies outside the country.
The billions of yuan Jing Yichen invested in Family Mus Hospital had been mostly used for the studies of cancer medication. Due to the abundant capital, the progress at the hospital was going on very fast and the results of the experiments had be surprisingly wonderful.
Since Jing Yichen trusted Mu Qing, he had only invested the capital, but never got involved with the daily operation of the hospital. So he didnt have any idea that the hospital had reached such a breakthrough in the development of cancer medication.
He turned to Mu Qing, with his eyes sparkling. Are you sure?
Mu Qing smiled cautiously. No one can be 100 % sure about curing the disease, but the medication that restrained the disease is able to keep the disease from increasing. As long as Anan is with me, I can watch out for her physical condition whenever I want, and I can check her up every time she needs me. That is an iparable advantage. My knowledge of Chinese medicine is much better than many devices, otherwise I would not have noticed her disease at the earliest stage. I am much more professional than I was ten years ago and Anan would be much safer to stay with me.
What Mu Qing said moved Jing Yichen, finally.
As a matter of fact, that was also the reason why Zhao Zhao hoped that Zhao Anan could marry Mu Qing.
What Jing Yichen wanted was a promise from Mu Qing. He knew Mu Qing well. He was a man who was fair and responsible. He would do whatever he was determined to do.
Apparently, Mu Qing had decided to take responsibility for Zhao Anan. He became assured and nodded calmly., Okay, you passed the test.
Mu Qing got delighted inside his heart hearing what he said.
It would be totally different if Jing Yichen was with him.
Ning has already approved of you two. She has been helping you all the time. The only difficulty you are facing right now is Zhao Anan alone.
Mu Qing had already noticed Shangguan Nings efforts. He smiled and then said happily, Sister is a good person. I knew that ages ago. She is now my lucky star as well, because Zhao Anan turns deaf ears to what I say but she listens to whatever Sister says.
They were just talking when Shangguan Ning came to them with Zhao Anan.
Doctor Mu, Anan will try the gown with me tomorrow, please lend her to me for one day.
Shangguan Ning had just finished speaking when Zhao Anan said unhappily, My dearest Sister, how can you talk in this way? What do you mean by lending her to you? I am not his, why do you have to ask him for permission?
You are mine! If you are not sure about it, then I will state it clearly again C you are mine, and you must tell me wherever you go in the future! Mu Qing sounded very confident and then said to Shangguan Ning, Sister, it is alright if I lend you my girlfriend. But can I tag along tomorrow as well? I can be your bag holder and pour water for you. I can be the driver and the doctor too. What do you think?
Shangguan Ning was about to agree when Zhao Anan pulled her behind and said with a cold voice, What are you tagging along for? I am the bridesmaid so I need to try the gown. You better stay at the hospital. If you join us, the entire group would be less good-looking and less intelligent!
The reason why Mu Qing could be an elite in the medicine field and remember everything written in the text books, was because he was much more intelligent than Zhao Anan. As for his looks, he was definitely better looking than average men. He looked sunny and extremely handsome! He had once been assessed as the most handsome doctor in A City on TV. If he hadnt been good-looking enough, Yang Muyan, a woman who thought so highly of herself, would not have fallen in love with him at first sight!
Zhao Anan was just ndering him so that he would not follow them to the shop, the next day.
Hearing what Zhao Anan said, Mu Qing didnt get annoyed. Instead, he rolled his eyes and then spoke, Oh, I forgot to tell you that Master Jing has just asked me to be his best man. So I will being along to try the ceremonial robe tomorrow as well!
Chapter 261 - The Best Men and the Bridesmaids (Part
Chapter 261: The Best Men and the Bridesmaids (Part One)
Having said the words, Mu Qing blinked at Jing Yichen hard.
Jing Yichen had just approved that Mu Qing was allowed to court Zhao Anan. Therefore, he was hoping that Jing Yichen wont embarrass him at the moment.
He nodded calmly. Yes, Mu Qing will go and try the ceremonial clothes tomorrow as well.
Zhao Anan didnt quite trust her best friend Shangguan Ning at the moment, but she trusted her own cousin. So she snorted unhappily.
Actually, she had wanted to part from Mu Qing, because it was not right to stick with him all the time.
Did he want her to marry him?
What if she died?
It wouldnt matter if she died alone C it would just be her mother who would get sad. Mothers didnt want to be separated from their children ever.
But Mu Qing could stay away from her and didnt need to be sad over her death.
She had wanted Shangguan Ning to hook someone up with Mu Qing and she was not joking about it.
She had been more than happy during the past few days.
She knew pretty well how nicely Mu Qing was treating her. But the nicer he was, the less she should bring pain to him.
It would have been wonderful if she were a healthy woman.
But she couldnt afford to promise Mu Qing that she would keep himpany for his entire life.
No matter howplicated Zhao Anan felt, she still went to try the gown with Mu Qing the following day.
Apart from Mu Qing and Zhao Anan, Zheng Jing and his sister Zheng Lun were with the group as well.
Zheng Jing was tall and strong-built. As a graduate from military school, he had an excellent posture. He had a pair of well defined eyebrows and bronze coloured eyes and skin.
His sister Zheng Lun possessed excellent facial features and her skin was snowy white. She was short but looked extremely elegant and graceful. Her dark-color hair was all over her shoulders and her voice was very soft. She was a lovely yet introverted girl.
Zhao Anan had met them, but Shangguan Ning had not. Jing Yichen had told her that there would be two bridesmaids and two best men for their wedding C Zhao Anan and Mu Qing as well as Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun.
They greeted each other and Zheng Jing saluted to Shangguan Ning in a serious way and addressed her as Sister!
After Jing Yichen took Mu Qing and Zheng Jing to the trying room next door, Shangguan Ning took hold of Zheng Luns hands and said smilingly, Thank you for being my bridesmaid. Your appearance makes the bridesmaid team look even prettier.
Zheng Lun had very beautiful features. Her eyes were so exquisite as if drawn by a painter. The two siblings looked totally different from each other.
Zhao Anan got pissed as she cried out, What do you mean Shangguan Ning? You think I am ugly? You arent that pretty either! Lun, dont get tricked by this woman. She is very vicious! She can sell you out next second! You are pretty and pure, you better stay away from her!
Zheng Lun started to blush. She wasnt used to talking with strangers and barely knew Zhao Anan and Shangguan Ning. She felt kind of embarrassed when she was teased by them.
No... no... you two look very beautiful, I have never met anyone more beautiful than you two. Having said the words, she suddenly felt that she must have sounded awkward and insincere. So she exined uneasily, I mean it! Those are true words!
Zheng Lun really thought that these two were the most beautiful women whom she had ever seen, especially the bride-to-be Shangguan Ning who looked elegant, beautiful, and graceful.
She understood that she was a bit timid and flushed after exchanging a few words with strangers. She also knew that she would panic when she was surrounded by too many people. The reason why she agreed to be the bridesmaid was because her brother had forced her to C he wanted her to meet more people and to socialize.
Shangguan Ning had not expected that Zheng Lun would be so timid. Fearing that she would feel ufortable, she said smilingly, Yes, we know that you are speaking the truth. You dont look like a person who lies. Dont worry,e and try the gown with us!
Zhao Anan had known how introverted Zheng Lun could get, so she didnt crack too many jokes, because she had once teased her so hard that she had started to shed tears! Zheng Jing had gotten annoyed after what happened and Zhao Anan got so scared that she didnt talk with Zheng Lun any more.
But Zheng Lun seemed better this time.
The three women were having fun with the clothes trial. There were luxurious gowns exported from UK and France by Jing Yichen in this store. All the clothes were expensive and well-made. Shangguan Ning and her friends kept on trying one after another, and even the introverted Zheng Lun looked excited.
Women were born not to resist beautiful clothes and shoes, especially wedding gowns!
Zheng Lun soon becamefortable with Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan. She no longer stumbled with her words but talked smoothly. The three women were soon engaged in a serious discussion.
Shangguan Ning said in an excited tone as she held up a white wedding gown. Look, this wedding gown looks so nice! Would I look like a princess in this dress?
Ning, I think that this dress looks great too! Look, the waist line is well done and beautiful rubies adorn the cor. Luxurious and beautiful! Zheng Lun sounded very gentle speaking in her nice voice. Shangguan Ning had asked her to call her by name after knowing that they were just a year apart. After all, it sounded quite weird for her to address her as Sister.
Zhao Anan didnt think that any of the gowns fit her well. She found that all of them were not very convenient for her to wear.
Ning, do they have something in pants?
Shangguan Ning and Zheng Lun got startled and then started tough hard.
They had never heard about anyone wearing pants at a wedding.
Shangguan Ning said as she smiled, Lady Zhao, I dont think that they are avable. Maybe you have to design them yourself!
Zheng Lun also saidughing, Anan, we are all wear dresses at the wedding. How can we have you wear pants at the wedding?
Zhao Anan tugged her short hair and said in an embarrassed tone, But I dont like dresses. I like pants. It makes walking easier. I cant walk in dresses.
Shangguan Ning red at her and spoke in a threatening tone, Dont you dare to wear pants as my bridesmaid!
Chapter 262 - The Best Men and the Bridesmaids (Part Two)
Chapter 262: The Best Men and the Bridesmaids (Part Two)
The three womenughed and then started to have an animated conversation.
Jing Yichen came to Shangguan Ning and saw the three of them in the exact same clothes. He couldnt help but ask them. Are you done?
They looked up at him and Shangguan Ning said, wide eyed, We havent even started yet!
The three men almost passed out.
One hour had gone by and they hadnt even started picking the clothes yet! What had they been doing till now?
Jing Yichen shook his head helplessly but said with a smiling face, Good. I have got the designer here from the UK. Just wait until shees and then she will take your measurements. Ning, tell her what and how you would like it to be.
Shangguan Ning nodded smilingly and then went to try the gowns with her two bridesmaids.
She needed to try different ones to understand what fitted her best, so that she could tell the designer what she wanted.
The three women got changed with the help of the staff and then walked out of the trying room.
The eyes of the three men waiting outside widened all of a sudden!
Each stared at his own woman and felt that she was the most beautiful one.
Since Shangguan Ning was the bride, Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun hadnt tried as many gowns as her. After changing back into their own clothes, they kept helping Shangguan Ning sort through the gowns.
Shangguan Ning was so dazzled because of the various wedding gowns that she couldnt understand what she wanted. She always wore clothes that gave her the mostfort and wasnt very particr about the style.
But the wedding dress designer from the UK took Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen aside and asked them for their preferences before taking their measurements.
Jing Yichen didnt say much. He didnt need too much effort put into his clothes. What he wanted was that Shangguan Ning could get the wedding gown which she would cherish forever.
People only got married once in their life and it should be perfect!
Shangguan Ning thought carefully for a while and then told the designer what she liked. They discussed it for quite sometime before freezing upon the final design.
The designer whom Jing Yichen had hired was a top-notch wedding gown designer who only designed dresses for the bride. The designers assistant went to take measurements of the best men and bridesmaids and discussed their respective clothes designs as well.
By the time the designs were finalised, it was already two in the afternoon. They hadnt eaten lunch, so Jing Yichen asked them to join them for ate lunch at his vi.
Jing Yichens vi was located in the outskirts surrounded by beautifulndscape and clean air. Zhao Anan and Mu Qing had both been here, so they worked as guides for Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun by telling them about the various flowers and surrounding buildings there.
The four guests led the way while the two hosts followed behind.
Shangguan Ning had lived in the vi once. She felt emotions threatening to overwhelm her.
When she lived here, she had never expected that she would marry the owner of the vi. She had thought that Jing Yichen would only be a passer-by in her life. But he had be her life already and they were going to have a wedding really soon.
At that time, she had already made a disciplined man like him, lose self-control many times. But now, she finally became his woman and they could walk across the entire building, hand in hand openly.
Jing Yichen held Shangguan Nings hand and strolled across the colorful garden. He looked at her gently and asked, Do you like it here?
Shangguan Ning nced at their tightly held hands and replied with a smile, Very much. It is a great ce to live in.
Good that you like it here. I didnt show you aroundst time you were here. Now we can take a proper look for as long as you wish. I have transferred the ownership of the vi to you as one of the wedding presents.
She stared at him in astonishment and then finally smiled. Then I will ept it! But if I have the ownership of all the real estate under my name, arent you worried that I would drive you out to the street?
Jing Yichenughed and then held his wifes hand even more tightly. Dont worry, I wont allow you to! I will sleep wherever you sleep. I am not going to allow you to sleep alone.
Dont be too sure. What if some fiance or girlfriend of yours pops up again someday?
Jing Yichen shook head helplessly. This woman was still jealous of Tang Yun. It was something that had happened ages ago.
He had a phobia of Tang Yun now, fearing that any more contact with her would make his wife thoroughly displeased. Therefore, no matter what happened to her in the USA, he didnt go there to take a look at her, at all. Instead, he sent Tiger to handle all the problems there.
He pulled her cheek and said lovingly, I dont think that any fiance would pop up ever because I havent got any. I have only one woman, namely you, in my life. And even, we didnt get engaged before getting married!
Also, if a fake fiance pops up one day, you shouldnt get tricked by it. Nor should you drive me out. Instead, you should hold tightly to me so that I wont go anywhere. You should learn from me C when you didnt agree to marry me, I cared about nothing except to drag you to the Civil Affairs Office. It was the simplest and most effective way to sort the problem.
He said it in such a matter-of-fact way that Shangguan Ning stared at him.
So unreasonable of you to force others to be as bossy as you!
While talking, they came through the garden and entered the vi. The servants greeted them courteously. Master, Lady, here you are! We have already got the lunch ready. Should we serve the dishes now?
Jing Yichen nodded.
He went into the spacious living room with Shangguan Ning. Mu Qing and the other three were already seated and talking animatedly with each other.
Mr. Zheng, you have been so protective about your sister, so what kind of brother-inw would you like to have? I have heard that you have scared off more than dozens of candidates and its your fault that your sister is still unmarried!
Those candidates werent good. I just interrogated them casually and they all got so scared that they ran away. How could these men be qualified to protect my sister for her entire life? Sigh! I had wanted to marry my sister to Master Jing or you, but it seems that neither of you are avable now!
Chapter 263 - The Best Men and the Bridesmaids (Part Three)
Chapter 263: The Best Men and the Bridesmaids (Part Three)
Mu Qing almost fell off the chair after hearing what Zheng Jing said.
That was his catch phrase CI have nothing else to repay you with, what about marrying my sister to you?
The problem was that he kept talking nonsense in front of Zhao Anan. What if she misunderstood them?
He nced at Zhao Anan and let out a sigh of relief seeing that she had not reacted badly. But he also felt sort of disappointed when she didnt give any reaction.
Shouldnt Zhao Anan be ring at him fiercely at the moment?
But before Mu Qing could rify anything, Zheng Lun, who was apparently an introvert, spoke and corrected him in a serious yet gentle tone, Brother, I dont want to marry them. I told you that I wont marry anybody. Dont force me.
That was what Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen heard the moment they stepped into the room.
Jing Yichen ignored the words and maintained his calm expression. No one was able to cause a change in his expressions except for Shangguan Ning.
But Shangguan Ning felt that Zheng Lun was saying something peculiar.
Why didnt she want to marry anybody, either?
Could Zheng Lun also have an incurable disease? It didnt look like that.
She sat next to Jing Yichen and sized up Zheng Lun from head to toe, failing to discover any problem.
But after the meal, Shangguan Ning finally understood what the issue was.
Zheng Lun liked her brother, Zheng Jing.
She looked so dependent and loving when she with him, not like a family member but like a girlfriend!
She waspletely different when she was with Zheng Jing. She was not shy and talked enough.
As for Zheng Jing... he didnt seem to feel anything special towards her apart from regarding her as his sister and taking careful care of her. He seemed like a formal and insensitive guy, but took care of Zheng Lun patiently and carefully.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help but sigh inside her heart as she watched them.
No wonder Zheng Lun refused to marry anyone. She must have fallen for Zheng Lun ages ago. That was why she refused to marry anybody else. But it was impossible to marry her own brother.
Why did both of her bridesmaids have such a tough life?
She had been able to give a helping hand to Zhao Anan and Mu Qing, but it was impossible with Zheng Lun.
Zheng Lun must have been so well-protected by the family that she had no idea of things. She was simply so innocent, scarily innocent.
After Shangguan Ning got to know her, she understood that she only spoke the truth about everything. She didnt know how to lie. It made her want to take care of this innocent girl in case she was tricked by someone.
Zheng Lun obeyed everything her brother Zheng Jing said. She would absolutely not do something if her brother forbade her. It was a happy yet tormenting thing for her to have fallen for her own brother.
Shangguan Ning nced at Jing Yichen who was taking great care of her at the lunch table and had moved all her favorite dishes to her bowl in spite of what the other four would think about it. Suddenly, she felt that she was very happy.
There was no barrier between them and they could love each otherpletely and openly.
Usually, Shangguan Ning tended to forbid Jing Yichen from moving all the dishes to her side, because that was a bad habit, especially in front of the guests. But she said nothing today.
Mu Qing had been used to the way Jing Yichen treated Shangguan Ning, but for Zheng Jing, it was the first time for him to see Jing Yichen treat a woman in such a way.
He even ate the food which Shangguan Ning gave to him with her chopsticks.
Wasnt he germaphobic?
Zheng Jing knew exactly what Jing Yichen had gone through. He felt that if he had been through what Jing Yichen had experienced, he might have gone crazy.
Zheng Jing never touched him, and also kept asking people around him not to touch him, because he had been on the spot and knew why he reacted like that.
It had been Jing Yichens strong willpower that made him live on. Anyone else would have chosen to kill himself.
Zheng Jing had never mentioned anything about the past to anyone, not even to his close buddy, Mu Qing. For one thing, he had no idea how to describe the horrible incidents in the past and for another, these were Jing Yichens private matters and he had no right to reveal them.
During the past few years, Jing Yichen had gradually be normal and started to appear less like a frozen iceberg.
After he got married, he underwent tremendous changes that people simply got astonished at the sight of him.
Zheng Jing was also very curious about what kind of woman Shangguan Ning was that she was able to reduce the burden from Jing Yichens chest and open his heart.
But after spending some time with Shangguan Ning, he didnt find her anything special except for her beautiful looks and her gentle personality.
Shangguan Ning brought peoplefort. She seemed to be born with friendliness that even his sister, Zheng Jing who didnt like hanging out with strangers, had taken to her immediately and showed her willingness to interact with her.
Shangguan Ning could sense that Zheng Jing was sizing up her. She looked up and smiled at him before turning her head to listen to what Jing Yichen was saying.
Jing Yichen leaned forward and found some rice remaining at the corner of her lip. So he removed it and said in a gentle and spoiling tone, Rice on the face, just like a child!
Shangguan Ning didnt care much about it, because that was what Jing Yichen often did when they were eating at home. Instead, she asked, Any more left?
Jing Yichen looked carefully and then wiped her face clean before saying, No.
Shangguan Ning resumed eating after that.
Zheng Lun saw their intimate gestures and found them to be a happy couple.
She envied Shangguan Ning a great deal for living with the man she loved. But it seemed that she herself wouldnt have such an opportunity in the future.
She had been protecting the love hidden inside her heart, fearing that someone would notice it or worse, her brother would see it.
But a part of her also hoped that her brother could see it.
Zheng Jing looked away from Shangguan Ning and noticed the change of expression on his sisters face.
She was innocent like a piece of white paper. Did she really think that what stayed in the bottom of her heart could be concealed from him, whom she spent day and night with?
He was one of the best policemen in A City. How would he not be able to tell whether an innocent girl was lying or not?
Chapter 264 - Full of Fun
Chapter 264: Full of Fun
While eating, an idea hit Zheng Lun. She pursed her lips and then left some rice at the corner of her lips.
Zheng Jing saw exactly what his sister was up to, from the corner of his eye.
He let out a sigh inside his heart, but didnt want to disappoint her, so he lifted his hand and wiped off the rice at Zheng Luns mouth as he said gently, Silly sister, rice everywhere, just like a little girl.
Her brothers fingers brushed past her lip and patted her long hair, making her flush slightly.
Her heartbeat was like a drum being beaten heavily. She was so close to her brother at this moment.
During the past few years, her brother had started to drift away from her. He kept saying that they were grown-ups and as a woman and a man they werent supposed to share the bed like when they were little. Zheng Lun was a timid girl who was afraid of the dark. She had always shared a bed with Zheng Jing since she was a baby.
Zheng Jing had been taking care of her for the entire day today, fearing that she would not befortable in a strange ce. He kept herpany all the time and talked with her. He knew that as long as he was with her, she wouldnt be scared no matter what.
A strange look shed in her crystal-clear eyes, making Zheng Jings heart skip a beat.
He pressed down the deepest emotions hidden inside the bottom of his heart and smiled normally at his sister. It wasnt a hard thing to fool Zheng Lun.
Mu Qing turned his head to Zhao Anan after seeing what the other two couples were doing.
He was looking forward to seeing some rice on Zhao Anans lips or face so that he could have a chance to wipe them off.
Zhao Anan was an insensitive woman but she wasnt silly. She saw through Mu Qings idea and red at him. I am 27 years old and not a child any more. I can eat well myself! Move your eyes off me, or I will have no appetite left for food.
Mu Qing wanted to bang the table hard and shout at her loudly, Are you a woman or not?
But he knew that Zhao Anan had a personality like a boy and that she didnt throw herself at him or acted weak. He knew that she didnt want to be treated like a little woman.
After hearing what Zhao Anan said, Zheng Lun felt kind of embarrassed. She also felt that she was behaving shamefully and even her love was a shame...
Shangguan Ning understood what Zhao Anan meant and that she said what she did because she couldnt hold her tongue. After all, Zhao Anan never gave a seconds thought to her words before speaking them.
She smiled and then put the cream of a walnut-sized cupcake on Zhao Anans face and said to Zheng Lun, Look at this woman. She is uglier than us with all the cake on her face.
Having been betrayed by her best friend once again, Zhao Anan snatched up another cupcake and put the cream on Shangguan Ning and Zheng Luns face. Seeing them both covered with cream, she couldnt help butugh loudly.
The atmosphere at the food table changed instantly. The three women chased each other around the long table and kept throwing the small cakes at one another. The three men also became targets, because their aim was poor.
Zhao Anan never aimed well. Her cakended upon her cousin and ruined his expensive shirt.
Shangguan Ning hid herself behind Jing Yichen and stuck out her tongue at her proudly. Jing Yichen bellowed with a livid face. Are you blind, Zhao Anan?
Zhao Anan wasnt scared of him. After replying with a short, Sorry, I didnt mean to do that! she pushed Mu Qing in front of her to avoid the attack from Zheng Lun.
As a result, the cake smashed upon Mu Qings handsome face, making it be whitepletely.
Zheng Lun joined the cake war under the encouragement of her brother. Seeing that the cake hadnded upon the wrong person, she apologized instantly, Ah, sorry, Doctor Mu, I... I didnt aim well...
Mu Qing wiped off his face andughed. It is okay, toss as you wish. I am the shield for my wife!
Another cakended upon Mu Qings face. It was from Zhao Anan who screamed loudly, Bastard! Who is your wife? I am single, and I have no rtionship with you!
Mu Qing wiped away the cake on the face. He said in a good mood, Yes, yes, we dont have any rtionship with each other except that we sleep together every night!
Zhao Anan had wanted to curse him one more time when two small cakes flew by. She had no time to fight with Mu Qing and instead used him as a shield by hiding herself behind his back. Then she snatched up the cookies on the food table and tossed at Shangguan Ning. They had run out of cakes, and it was the turn for the other food at the table.
The afternoon was full of fun andughter in the vi. Everyone was in aplete mess after the tired women finally ceased their fight. The dining room was also in aplete mess, and it would be a lot of work for the servants.
There were four bathrooms in the vi. The three women went to take shower first Cdies first.
But Shangguan Ning hadnt been long in the bathroom when Jing Yichen opened the door and entered.
Shangguan Ning covered herself up subconsciously and scolded him with a blushing face. Wait outside,e in when I am finished...
But Jing Yichen ignored her and stripped off his clothes. He picked her up and put her into the bathtub.
What are you feeling shy about? I have seen everything about you. His voice was low and sexy, making Shangguan Nings heart skip a beat.
It would have been fine if only the two of them were here, because Shangguan Ning was already used to having a bath with Jing Yichen. But the problem was that they had guests at the moment!
They wouldugh at them if they were discovered taking a bath together.
Anyway, Jing Yichen was here and he was naked. She shouldnt drive him out in this way.
She stretched her hands to wipe off the cake on his face. She smiled as her hands brushed past his handsome eyes and eyebrows.
Jing Yichen, who had been obsessed with cleanliness, didnt care about the cake on himself. He removed Shangguan Nings clothes as he said softly, Had fun today?
Shangguan Ning nodded and allowed him to remove all of her clothes, exposing her lovely body.
Very much. I am very happy!
Jing Yichens nearly perfect face broke into a smile. Good that you are happy. I had fun too. We can ask them to visit us often.
He wasnt a man who liked too much noise or crowd. But today he felt that the more people there were, the merrier it could get.
Chapter 265 - To France
Chapter 265: To France
Everyone showered and changed into the new clothes which the servants had prepared for them. They yed cards until midnight before going to bed.
But the problem urred again when they were about to sleep.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning certainly had no problem sleeping together, but Zhao Anan wanted to share the bed with Zheng Lun who didnt like sharing bed with anyone else. But she did like Zhao Anan for her outgoing personality, so she agreed with her proposal.
It so happened that she didnt like sleeping alone in a strange environment, so she felt assured to have a familiar face next to her.
But the problem was that Mu Qing didnt approve of the proposal at all.
He didnt want to be separated from Zhao Anan, because it couldnt be guaranteed that Zhao Anan wont run away in the middle of the night!
He wanted her to be by his side at all times.
Zheng Jing knew Mu Qing very well and was a good friend to Zhao Anan as well. So he knew pretty clearly what it was going on between the two of them. Seeing Mu Qing taking hold of Zhao Anan and dragging her into his room, he soon took his sister away.
Brother, I... am afraid of sleeping alone, can you keep mepany until I fall asleep?
Zheng Lun was dressed in a brand-new pajama which the servants had prepared for her. With a nket over her head, she begged him softly in her room.
She understood that Zheng Jing couldnt sleep with her for the entire night, and they no longer shared a bed. So she asked him to keep herpany for just a bit.
Zheng Jing struggled inside his heart. Seeing his pretty sisters eyes pleading with him, he couldnt be ruthless enough to refuse her.
Alright, I wont leave until you fall asleep.
Zheng Jing sounded caring. He wanted to caress his sisters snowy white skin, but resisted it eventually.
Zheng Lun didnt notice his struggle. She was very excited that he had agreed to keep herpany. She looked radiant.
Controlling his violently heartbeat, Zheng Jing pulled his hand out of Zheng Luns and said softly, Sleep well. I will be by your side. Dont be scared.
Zheng Lun nodded. She could feel the air in the room filled with her virile brother. Finally, she closed her eyes with a smile on her lips.
Some timeter, Zheng Lun started to breathe evenly and stopped tossing around. She was fast asleep.
Seeing his sister fall asleep, Zheng Lun stared at her beautiful and exquisite face carefully as if wanting to frame it into his heart.
His fingers tucked her loose hair behind her ears and then kissed softly upon her snowy face as he said in a low voice, Good Night, Little Seven.
Zheng Lun was afraid of darkness, so Zheng Lun didnt switch off the bedsidemp and turned away after looking at his sister for a long minute. Then he opened the door and walked out.
His sister was an inexperienced girl and it was normal if she had some confusing feelings towards him. But he was an experienced man and a veteran policeman. He mustnt have any feelings towards his own sister beyond the brother-and-sister rtionship, absolutely not!
But the fearless Zheng Jing , for the very first time of his life, dare not ask himself if he really treated Zheng Lun as only his sister.
After Zheng Jing left, Zheng Lun, who was supposed to be asleep, opened her eyes.
Her brothers remaining warmth and fragrant air were still lingering upon her cheeks, making her heart beat fast!
Tears trickled down from her eyes. Her brother had just called her Little Seven rather than Lun!
Because her original name was not Zheng Lun. It was Little Seven!
Could it have been possible that her brother had feelings for her as well?
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were lying in each others arms. As the sweet moonlight pierced in through the window, the bedroom was full of light, tranquil and wonderful.
Shangguan Ning snuggled inside Jing Yichens arms and found afortable spot. Then she held his waist and said in a happy tone, Why do I feel a bit nervous and excited to marry you? Its so strange, we are already married!
Jing Yichen was in a happy mood. He lowered his head and nted a soft kiss upon his wifes forehead as he said with a low voice, Me too. I feel that I am going to marry you formally now. I am worried that something would go wrong with the wedding, so I keep making sure that every step is perfect.
Shangguan Ning smiled after hearing what he said. Seeing him earlier, she had assumed that he had everything under control. But it turned out that he was also feeling quite nervous, maybe more nervous than she was.
It is alright, dont worry. I have already married you, and I will still be your wife no matter what the wedding is like. You will still be my husband as well. Even if something goes wrong with the wedding, the worst thing will be that Family Jing will lose some face. That isnt a big deal!
Wife, are you sure you are consoling me?
Shangguan Ningughed for quite a while before replying, Am I not? I have tried my best to console you!
No, you are not. You are stabbing my chest with a knife. Feel it, my chest is freezing. Jing Yichen said as he grabbed Shangguan Nings hands to feel his chest.
Shangguan Ning failed to withdraw her hands. But now she was braver than before.
She asked, Has grandpa picked the date?
Not yet. He is still calcting. He says that it will take him some time. My dear wife, are you so eager to marry me?
Yes, I am! But someone was more eager sometime back. He forced me to go to the Civil Affairs Office to get the certificate when I didnt even know his name. Tell me then, who is more eager?
Jing Yichen chuckled and then held Shangguan Ning tightly into his arms as he said softly, Okay, okay, I am the eager one, alright?
He tweaked her nose with his fingers. So petty! Still remembers those things.
...
The following morning when Shangguan Ning opened her eyes, she found that she was not in the room where she had slept the night before. Instead, she was in a ne flying high in the sky!
A musical voice reached her ears. Up now?
Shangguan Ning sat up and looped her arms around Jing Yichens neck. Looking at him with a pair of drowsy eyes, she asked him, Where are we going? When did I board the ne?
To France. Jing Yichen tucked her hair behind her ears and then brought her head under his chin. He said calmly, I didnt want to wake you up from your deep sleep. So I carried you up to the ne. Are you worried that I will sell you?
Chapter 266 - Romance for Others, Life for Us!
Chapter 266: Romance for Others, Life for Us!
Anyone else in the world could sell her, but Jing Yichen would never do that.
Shangguan Ning felt calm and teased him with her lips pursed. I am not so valuable. No one will want to buy me.
No, you are invaluable, and no one can afford it! Jing Yichen looked calm but he said it intensely.
A smile hovered over Shangguan Nings face. She leaned in Jing Yichens arms and saidzily, Why are we going to France? It is a working day and we have lots of things to deal with at thepany.
Oh, I didnt know that you, the newly-appointed Deputy President could be busier than the President himself. Should I give you a raise? Jing Yichen liked it most when Shangguan Ning woke up in the morning. She looked charming, slightlyzy and cute. She tempted him.
He nted a kiss upon her cherry coloured lips and said, I told you that I have a present for you. So I am showing it to you now.
Oh, did you buy the Eiffel Tower for me? Is that why we have to fly to France?
Jing Yichenughed and then pulled out a miniaturized Eiffel Tower from an exquisite box and gave it to her. You are so smart. Yes, here it is!
Shangguan Ning took the exquisitely made Eiffel Tower andughed as surprise was visible in her eyes. You really got one for me?
I wanted to give it to you when we reached France, but you figured out the answer ahead of time, so I had to give it to you now. Well, it seems that I have no presents to give to you when we reach there, so I need to buy more, let me see... what else can I give it to you?
Shangguan Ningughed again. She didnt believe that Jing Yichen was taking her all the way to France just to give her a miniature Eiffel Tower.
It would need ten hours to reach France, so Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning to the pilots cabin after she washed herself up, thinking that she would get bored otherwise.
Wanna learn how to fly a ne?
Shangguan Ning eyes widened but she replied quickly, Yes!
She always thought that being able to fly a ne would be a very cool thing to do. If she were to be a pilot, she will be able to fly to wherever she wanted to, in the world!
Jing Yichen exined about the process to her in detail and even asked the captain to demonstrate it to her, so that the ne kept moving up and down in the air, making Shangguan Ning scream. When Jing Yichen asked her to fly the ne herself, she turned down the offer immediately.
It was not a joking matter!
Could she be fit to fly the ne just by listening to Jing Yichen for an hour? She was not a genius like him who could master a concept after one round of demonstrations.
Even if he trusted her, she didnt trust herself. Five people were on the ne, and it was not worth the risk.
Jing Yichenughed and said, It is okay. Just go ahead and try. I will be seated next to you. I will take over whenever you lose the grip. Trust me, there wont be any problem.
Shangguan Ning sat down onto the pilots seat after his constant persuasion. Shangguan Ning was very nervous.
She had forgotten everything Jing Yichen said to her a minute ago in panic. Her brain was nk!
The ne started to dangle back and forth and then started to descend straight down.
Yichen! Shangguan Ning screamed.
Push the controller, lift the throttle valve and control the steering wheel with your feet! Jing Yichens cool voice arose in the cabin. He still sounded calm as usual as if he was not concerned about the rapid descending.
Shangguan Ning got so nervous that she couldnt even tell the right foot from the left. Hearing the rm ringing from the cabin, she felt beads of sweat covering over her forehead and her back gotpletely drenched within seconds.
She pushed the controller in panic but stepped upon the steering wheel identally, and the ne turned to another direction and started to drop.
Jing Yichen smiled and eventually took over the control of the ne. Soon the ne went up steadily and got back to the original route.
Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief and then copsed in the pilots seat. Her face was white as a sheet and her fingers were shivering.
Jing Yichen consoled her. Silly girl, I am here, alright? All will be fine with me around.
His heart ached when he saw her pale face. He kind of regretted asking her to try flying the ne now. He could be her pilot at all times and she didnt need to learn it.
Shangguan Ning didnt recover until a whileter.
After she recovered, she struck hard upon Jing Yichens back. You scared me to death. What if the ne had crashed? No more stunts like this anymore.
Jing Yichen realised that she was really pissed. So he handed the ne back to the captain and took Shangguan Ning back to the exquisitely decorated cabin.
Shangguan Ning was still scared and angry about what happened. Her face was pale but she didnt use the fiery tone any more.
When others are enjoying watching movies and dinners, we are flying the ne and risking our lives. It was too scary. I wont dare to even go near the cockpit in the future!
Jing Yichen pulled her on hisp and pinched her chin as he apologized to her. Sorry, baby, I was wrong to have scared you. But the ne was within my control. I would never risk your life, because it is more important than mine and I dont want you to be hurt at all! You dont need to take anymore flying lessons in the future, I can do the job. You are spared.
Shangguan Ning knew how much Jing Yichen loved her.
She started to feel better. When she thought back at what happened, she found that not only Jing Yichen but also the captain and the assistants had beenposed. None of them even made a sound.
She did seem to have... overreacted.
But anyone would have lost their head in that situation! The ne had been descending rapidly and she seemed to have no control over it at the time.
But Shangguan Ning was not a woman who gave up. She was always a woman who dared to face the difficulty. Otherwise, she would not have tried her best to improve herself versus Shangguan Rouxue.
After a long while, she wrapped her arms around Jing Yichens neck and said determinedly, I will learn to fly the ne. I will learn until I am able to do it well!
Chapter 267 - The Wedding Present
Chapter 267: The Wedding Present
By the time they were about to reach France, Shangguan Ning had kind of learnt the basics of flying after hours of learning.
Although she screamed and steered the ne in the wrong direction a few times, and the ne kept descending unsteadily but she was determined to learn. Jing Yichen was such a good teacher that she was really able to learn to steer it in the ten hours of flight.
Jing Yichen opened a bottle of champagne and celebrated with her. He had not expected that Shangguan Ning would be able to ovee her mental barriers in such a frightening situation. He had also not expected that a woman like her would be able to master this skill within such a short time without any former experience.
He clicked his champagne ss with Shangguan Nings and then praised hervishly. Congrattions, baby, you have now be a pilot! You were excellent and I am proud of you.
Shangguan Ning was very excited. She sipped the champagne and then threw herself into Jing Yichens arms. She kissed him on the cheek and said happily, I have done it. I know how to steer the ne. It is not difficult at all!
Although she hadnt be so good with the ne and still needed Jing Yichen to remind her every now and then, yet she had managed to keep a steady flying routine by herself!
Jing Yichen became very happy at the sight of her elegant smiling face.
His woman was indeed a bravedy!
He kissed her red lips and then deepened the kiss to suck the sweetness from her mouth.
Shangguan Ning kissed him back and soon they were both panting.
Jing Yichen always found her irresistible and had an erection very soon.
Shangguan Ning flushed prettily and whispered, Not on the ne, wait until wend...
With a ripping sound, Shangguan Nings dress was already being torn apart by Jing Yichen.
Baby, I want you right here on the ne. I dont want to wait until wend... hold me, touch me, kiss me, now...
My dress...
Jing Yichen showered kisses upon Shangguan Nings face and neck, making her feel as if she were getting an electric shock. She roamed her hands on Jing Yichens back and through his hair.
Shangguan Ning had totally forgotten about the dress. She kept mumbling the name of the man she loved.
Yichen, Yichen...
I am here, baby...
Maybe it was because of being up in the air, their senses were magnified and they had an amazingly pleasurable experience, even more than the usual. As a result, Jing Yichen was extremely reluctant to release this charming, feline woman from his arms.
Shangguan Ning had run out of energy because of Jing Yichen. She left herself at the mercy of him to clean her up whilst kissing him softly to express her gratitude.
Baby, if you want it, I can ask the captain to take a U-turn. Jing Yichen said in his low and sexy voice. Shangguan Nings heart skipped a beat.
She mumbled in a slightly hoarse voice. No, I dont want it. Dont go, it is too embarrassing...
Jing Yichen was actually teasing her. They had already reached the airspace of France and the ne was about tond very soon. He didnt want to exhaust her any more.
It was noon in France. After the couple went off the ne, they went into the presidential suit of a hotel. After washing themselves up, Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning for an authentic French lunch.
Both of them were a bit hungry and gorged on the delicious meal.
After lunch, they went back to the hotel for a one-hour nap post which they stepped out.
Sitting in the passengers seat, Shangguan Ning looked at the brand new red Ferrari and said with a smile, Seems that you have many assets in France as well. I better check up our ount, in case you splurge lots of money to make some beautiful woman happy.
Jing Yichen had a pair of sunsses on him and looked extremely handsome. Seeing what his wife said, he shook his head helplessly. You may need one or two years to be able to fully check the ount of our family. As for splurging money to make a beautiful woman happy, I admit that I have done that before, but to just one woman, who is sitting next to me. Can you guess who it is?
Shangguan Ning rolled her eyes at the President and smiled. Then the woman must be someone who is loving, beautiful, can work and cook and who is extremely virtuous.
Honey, is it okay to speak so highly of yourself? Of course you work, but as for cooking... well, you are definitely good at eating what is cooked.
They talked andughed happily. Shangguan Ning didnt ask about where they were going. She just felt that it was also wonderful driving on the road whilst experiencing the beautiful summer season of France.
They drove for almost an hour before they stopped in front of avish manor.
Shangguan Ning got off the car and saw two Chinese horizontal broad hangings on the door of the manor with two bustling characters C Nings Garden.
Jing Yichen removed the sunsses and came to his wife as he asked with a smile, Like it?
It is a winery?
Yes.
For me?
Yes.
So beautiful. I want to stay here forever!
The warm afternoon sunlight covered the manor casting a luxurious golden hue over the entire ce. The ce was full of lush, thick leaves as well as grapes so ripe like agates.
The scene was so beautiful as if they were in the fairy tale.
It will be yours from now on, live here as long as you want and I will stay with you. Seeing his wifes happy face, Jing Yichen was feeling very happy as well. He had bought the winery ages ago and after it was expanded, he had nned to give it to Shangguan Ning, because he felt that she was definitely going to like it here.
Jing Yichen gave her such a big winery without hesitation. And it seemed that he had nned it a long time ago as her wedding gift.
Deeply moved, Shangguan Ning spoke through tears shimmering in her eyes. Thank you so much, Yichen! I really like this wedding gift.
Chapter 268 - You Are the Prince
Chapter 268: You Are the Prince
Shangguan Ning had always wanted to own this kind of winery. When she was studying in New Zend, she had visited France with her ssmates to some famous wineries. At that time, everyone wished that they would be able to own such a beautiful winery and spend the rest of their lives in such a ce.
She never expected that her dream woulde true so fast.
She spun around happily and told Jing Yichen, Come, my prince, lets go and inspect our territory!
Seeing her so happy, Jing Yichen had a smile on his dazzling face. My princess, I am at your service!
The winery was spread across tens of thousands of meter squares and looked endless at first sight. Jing Yichen asked the farmer in charge of the winery to drive them around.
The farmer was called Beno?t and was in his 50s. He was a typical Frenchman who was quite talkative. He had amassed quite an experience and opinions towards grape nting and brewery, so he kept sharing the same with them on the way. He knew that the couple owned the winery, so he showed exceptional enthusiasm towards them.
This winery which Jing Yichen had bought was located in an excellent position. The soil was of high quality and there was sufficient sunlight, suitable for nting of grapes. The wine brewed from this winery was already being sold to every ce in the world and the annual profits were tremendous.
After the visit to the grape garden, Shangguan Ning followed Beno?t to watch the brewing process. She had a different feeling fromst time when she was here, because it was her own brewery and she was more careful while looking at the proceedings.
The buildings at the winery were European styled, like an ancient castle. Therefore, Shangguan Ning felt as if she was a princess from the middle century.
Shangguan Ning stayed in the winery with Jing Yichen for five days. They trimmed the branches, picked the grapes and brewed the wine. They tasted the most delicious wine and spent a happy time there.
Jing Yichen had hired someone responsible to look after the ce and only came here once a year. He brought Shangguan Ning here this time and didnt leave for the UK until she had had enough fun. By now, Shangguan Nings wedding gown was ready for trial at the British designers studio.
Shangguan Ning had been very happy during these few days in France.
Yichen, when we are old, we can spend our days here. It is such a beautiful ce and I feel that life here will be leisurely and cosy.
She leaned her head against Jing Yichens shoulders and looked satisfied.
Jing Yichen nted a soft kiss upon her forehead as he said smilingly, Alright, my princess, you get to decide where we go.
We can take back some bottles of wine to share with Anan and other friends. They would definitely like the wine brewed from our own winery.
Yes, I have already sent them to the ne.
...
They reached the UK. The private nended upon Jing Yichens personal vi district.
Jing Yichens vi was spread across arge area and was located in the outskirts. After they arrived, Jing Yichen showed Shangguan Ning around.
He had spent the longest time in the UK, and bought the best vi which was decorated with ssical and elegant embellishment. There were always servants who kept cleaning the ce, thus maintaining it very well.
Family Jing had many properties in the UK and this castle-like vi was just one of them. Other things includednd, houses, stores as well as other properties.
Why do Family Jing have so many properties in the UK? Shangguan Ning had always known that Family Jing was extremely wealthy, but she never expected that they could be so rich.
Jing Yichen took his wife around the castle and exined to her in a soft tone. I had told you earlier that some ancestor of Family Jing once married a girl from the British Royal family and the Royal Family gave her lots ofnd as dowry. Many of our ancestors lived and did business here as well, so many properties have been acquired.
The business andnds have never been sold but passed down from generation to generation. And some properties are still in the hands of grandpa and will not be passed down to father until we have the formal wedding in the UK. When our children establish their own business, father would pass these properties to me. This has been the rule set by the ancestors and has never been changed.
Family Jing and the British Royal Family are also in a close rtionship till today. Whenever a new baby is born, a priest would pass on the blessing to the baby. When the child bes six years old, he or she will be sent to the Royal Family and receive the etiquette education of the Royal Family until he or she is an adult.
No wonder Shangguan Ning felt that Jing Yichen behaved and talked like a man from a noble family, even the dandiacal Jing Yiran also gave out the feel of nobility. So the reason was that they had really been educated under the guidance of the British Royal Family. The girl whom the ancestor had married must have got a very outstanding position, considering that Family Jing still had a good rtionship with the Royal Family.
She walked towards the castle and held hands with Jing Yichen. The setting sun cast its mellow glow upon them. They really looked like a prince and a princess.
Shangguan Ning said smilingly, So, you are really a prince!
Jing Yichen smiled too. He slipped his hand around Shangguan Nings waist and replied, I do have blood from the British Royal Family, but after so many generations, only traces of that blood remains. That is why I am not a prince, but a nouveau riche.
Shangguan Ning had always teased Jing Yichen for being a nouveau riche who ran a coal mine. She chuckled hearing his words now.
Which ignorant person said that you are a nouveau riche? Shangguan Ning flicked her hair back and said with augh, I think that my husband is a prince, noble and totally royal!
Jing Yichen took her into the garden of the castle and spoke in an indulgent tone, It doesnt matter if I have the blood from the Royal Family. What matters is that you think that I do since you are my princess.
Chapter 269 - Jingsheng Split?
Chapter 269: Jingsheng Split?
After one more night at the castle, Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning to try the wedding gown the following morning.
Although the wedding gown was not fully done till now, yet it already looked extremely exquisite. It was tailor-made ording to Shangguan Nings measurements.
The moment the drapery of the trying room was pulled open, Jing Yichen caught sight of his wife in the white wedding gown.
He looked amazed. He walked forward to take hold of Shangguan Nings hands and whispered, Very beautiful. Never saw you wearing any strapless dress before. Make the rest of the dresses strapless as well.
Shangguan Nings shoulders were white and slender, and her corbone was dainty, making her look gorgeous.
Shangguan Ning had also noticed that she seemed to look pretty in strapless dresses, so she nodded with a smile. I had the same thought. I like this style as well.
The designer had designed it so well that it fitted amazingly.
They discussed it for a bit more and then took some more measurements of Shangguan Ning, in case her figure changed slightly by that time of the wedding.
After the trial, Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen held hands and strolled along the streets of London.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning hadnt roamed much in France, because both of them were very familiar with the country. But Shangguan Ning wasnt as familiar with the UK, so Jing Yichen, who had lived in the UK for a long time, acted as a guide for his wife.
After walking for a while, Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning to the double decker bus and for sightseeing.
They went to the Parliament Square, the Big Ben, Pce of Westminster, the London Eye etc...
They also went into The Collegiate Church of St Peter at Westminster for a visit...
After they got tired, they visited a British afternoon tea at The Tower Hotel and had a wonderful time.
By the time it was evening, the couple took the car back to the vi. Shangguan Ning was surprised to find out that a beautiful and romantic candle light dinner was waiting for her at home.
She turned to the man next to her. You prepared this?
Jing Yichen looked up pleased and said with a smile, Of course. Romance is in the air. We are not risking our lives this time, we are going to have a good time. Please, my wife!
Shangguan Ning smiled and sat down in the chair which he pulled out. Seeing him opening the wine bottle and pouring the wine for her, she, who had been a bit tired from all that walking, was soon infected by the romantic and cozy atmosphere.
It was a lovely night. The following day, they went to see the other side of London before heading towards Irnd on the third day.
They stayed in the UK for one week, tried the wedding gown once again and then headed back home.
During the flight back to the country, Shangguan Ning tried flying the ne once again. Thanks to Jing Yichens instruction, she had no problem flying it by herself. For Shangguan Ning, it was a very huge aplishment.
Driving a car was simple, but flying a ne... was simply so cool!
After they got back to A City, Shangguan Ning sorted the presents which she had brought back from France and the UK well and started to deliver them to Uncle and their friends.
They had missed the weekly meal at Uncles house when they were in the UK, so they went to make up to him this week.
The couple stayed at home for one day before going back to work the following day.
Shangguan Ning gave the wine bottle and a small present to Lu Qing and then gave one to Mi Xiaoxiao as well.
Mi Xiaoxiao couldnt wait to tear open the gift, the moment she saw it. When she saw the wrap cape of Scottish style, she shook her head and said exaggeratingly, Honestly, Deputy President Shangguan, cant you be a bit generous to give me a Herms bag? This wrap cape... well doesnt fit your identity so well!
Shangguan Ning grabbed the wrap cape and red at her, Forget it if you dont want it. This wrap cape cost me more than 10,000 yuan and you still detest it. My sry is not enough for even half of a Herms bag. You can fly to the UK to get one yourself.
Mi Xiaoxiao was just talking. She liked the wrap cape very much.
She grabbed the wrap cape back and then smiled. I want it! Give it to me!
Shangguan Ning smiled as well. They chit chatted for a moment when Mi Xiaoxiao said in a mysteriously low voice, Our enterprise is going through a turbulent time recently. They all say that Jingsheng will split into half now, one with the President, the other with Second Master for a new group. I am not sure if it is true. Do you have any internal information to leak to me, since you are Mrs. President and the Deputy President both? I need to get ready ahead of time, in case Second Master gets the Department of Public Rtions. If that really happens, I will quit immediately. He is such a monster, and I dont want to irritate him...
Shangguan Ning got so startled by her words that she was speechless for a moment.
What was going on?
How could there be a rumor like this!
It was impossible that Jingsheng would be split into half.
Jing Zhongxiu did mention that Jing Yiran would give half of the inheritance to Jing Yiran, but he had never mentioned that Jingsheng would be split.
Pale, Shangguan Ning grabbed hold of Mi Xiaoxiao and asked with a low voice, Who said this to you?
Mi Xiaoxiao was surprised. Didnt you know? The entire enterprise knows about it already. Even TV-Stations were here for the interview but the Director drove them off. Although TV-Stations didnt get anything, yet it is the headlines in the newspapers already. Oh, yes, it just happened. You were in the UK at that time.
Shangguan Ning couldnt hold it any more. She said, I am off to Mi Xiaoxiao and hurried off from the tea room all the way up to the 76th floor.
In the Presidents office on the 76th floor, Jing Yichen was reading through the n of a proposed project of the Enterprise. Without knocking at the door, Shangguan Ning barged in.
She forgot to address him as President in the hurry. Instead, she called him Yichen and asked him anxiously, Did you hear about the splitting of the Enterprise? What is it going on? Could it have been Jing Yirans work again?
Jing Yichen looked up and smiled confidently at Shangguan Ning. Its just a rumor. Dont worry, Jingsheng wont be split, it will only be mine.
Shangguan Ning let out a slight relief hearing what he said. But she still asked, The rumor is everywhere in thepany. Wont it cause uneasiness amongst the staff?
Chapter 270 - Jing Yiran’s Remedy
Chapter 270: Jing Yirans Remedy
Jing Yichen wrote a final note upon the n, and folded the document. He got up around the table and came to Shangguan Ning. He held her and said calmly, Its just a little trick that Jing Yiran ys with others. People certainly would suspect, but soon there will be an official release to rify this matter.
Shangguan Ning finally was assured and soon regained her rationality. Then she realized that she was in apromising position with Jing Yichen, lying down on the office table.
Jing Yichens fingers roamed over Shangguan Nings lips and whispered in her ear, Is this office table broad enough?
Shangguan Ning was startled for a second before realizing what Jing Yichen meant. Her face started burning with heat.
This man was getting more and more shameless.
Are you crazy? We are at the office!
Jing Yichen showed an innocent face. Why am I crazy? I was just asking about the table and you are the one who are thinking about something else. So unfair!
He released Shangguan Ning and went back to his chair and started to leaf through a document with an attentive expression, showing as if he had not been upto anything naughty.
Shangguan Ning got angry. She knew that he wasnt so innocent and was pretending as if he were wronged. Seemed that he was bing a good actor!
She walked upto him and pinched his ears. She wasnt using any force but Jing Yichen started crying out in an exaggerated way. Then he swept her into his arms and started to kiss her. Right at that moment, the office door was pushed open and a tiny woman came in.
Brother Jing, did you... ahhh Sister Shangguan, here you are! I heard that you have brought many delicious things from abroad. Where are they? I want to eat them all!
Lu looked very excited and her eyes were twinkling. She seemed to be so concentrated upon food that she didnt even register their intimate posture.
Shangguan Ning pushed Jing Yichen away, adjusted her clothes and was about to say something when Jing Yichen said in a cold voice, Lu, no breaking into my office any more!
Lu seemed to be scared of him. After hearing what he said, she nodded like an energetic chicken. I am sorry, Brother Jing, I will definitely knock before Ie next time and not intrude the good things between you and Sister Shangguan. But can you ask Sister Shangguan to give me the candies before kissing her?
Shangguan Ning flushed instantly. Her white skin was like an overripe tomato, from inside to outside.
Lu, could you just not be so straightforward?
Shangguan Ning stomped upon Jing Yichen hard upon feet behind the office table and then took Lu outside the office.
Lu, I have brought you chocte of many different tastes, which one would you like?
Lu forgot about Jing Yichenpletely after hearing about the food. She happily followed Shangguan Ning to her office.
I like strawberry taste! Oh, hazelnuts too! Almonds as well, ah I like them all! Sister Shangguan, cant you give me one of each?
Shangguan Ning nodded smilingly, Yes, but you shouldnt eat them all so fast, or your teeth would be ruined. Eat them on different asions and you mustnt eat only these, you have to eat normal meals on time as well.
Lu said happily, Alright, Sister Shangguan, I will do what you say, because I am also called Shangguan, my name is Shangguan Lu!
Shangguan Ning stuffed the chocte and other candies in a box and gave it to her. Shangguan Ning got increasingly confused as she watched her eating happily.
Lu seemed to be back to normal again. When she had seen her a few days ago, she waspletely different and now she was like another woman again.
Lu suffered from intellectual impairment and had no capability to think evil at all. She was not like a 26-year-old girl but an innocent child who enjoyed sticking to her and eating candies. She couldnt stay still. She was lovely and outgoing and liked ying around.
Whilst the other version of Lu was no different from an adult. She would be silent and aloof from the others. She would be thoughtful and extremely sensitive. She would have a very goodmand of guns and locate the rival at one sound of gunshot and kill him instantly.
Could Lu be... mental?
Shangguan Ning hadnt thought this through when she heard her office opened without knocking. Jing Yiran, who was dressed in a peach-color shirt and coffee color pants, walked in with a swagger.
Shangguan Ning frowned and said, Lu, someone broke into my office, get him out.
Lu instantly replied in her child like voice, Okay, Sister Shangguan!
She had just received such a big box of candies and chocte so she couldnt wait to express her gratitude towards Shangguan Ning. Hence, it wasnt a lucky day for Jing Yiran...
Lu, what are you doing! Let go of me, I have something to say to this woman... ah!
With a loud pping sound, Lu crushed Jing Yiran with a height of 186cm down under her and then tossed him out of the office.
Lu ran back in and grabbed a handful of candies and rushed to the door. Then she squatted down at the rooms entrance and mumbled as she ate the candies. I will stay here so no one goes in, so Sister Shangguan could work with at ease.
Jing Yiran got extremely pissed.
He felt as if his entire body was broken by Lus smashing. It hurt so much yet he had no way to deal with Lu, the weirdo.
Lying on the ground for a long while, Jing Yiran came up with an idea. His beautiful eyes turned bright.
He had tried many methods upon Lu, yet she didnt respond to any of them. So he always failed.
But he had juste up with an idea which he had never tried. It might work!
Jing Yiran got up from the ground and scooped out a mirror. He adjusted his unkempt hair and then sat down next to Lu. He gathered her into his arms and then pinched her chin. Looking at her affectionately, he said in a gentle voice, Lu, you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. I like you, do you like me?
Jing Yiran had full confidence in himself. He was a famousdy-killer and all women, be it a teenager or a married woman, would fall for him if he charmed them.
Lu might be intellectually impaired, but she was also a girl who will be defenceless against this behavior.
Chapter 271 - Jingsheng Isn’t that Valuable
Chapter 271: Jingsheng Isnt that Valuable
Sure enough, Lu stared at Jing Yiran transfixedly and herrge eyes started zing.
Delighted, Jing Yiran nted a kiss upon her forehead softly and then said in a gentle tone, Lu, do you like it when I kiss you?
With candies clenched hard in hands, Lu didnt look confused any more.
She said happily, My forehead itches. Brother Jing, why are you kissing me? Uncle Lu says that if a man kisses me, then it means that he wants to marry me. Are you marrying me? Or, are you just trying to trick me into give you candies? I can marry you, but I wont share the candies with you.
Jing Yirans expressions fell when he heard what she said. He scratched his hair regretfully and turned his head to look at Lu. Then, the sense of familiarity arose again.
He stared at Lus lips for a long while and felt that he had seen this kind of lips on someone else before.
He asked in bewilderment, Why do I feel that I have met you before?
Lu shook her head pitifully. Brother Jing, you didnt go to hospital to check yourself up, did you? We met yesterday, the day before yesterday and two days ago too. Why are you so forgetful?
No, it is not you whom I met. But that person looked like you, no, no, she didnt, she had a different temperament, but.... why do I feel that the two of you look like each other?
Lu thought that Brother Jing waspletely crazy so he talked nonsense. He was even worse than her. Uncle Lu said that she had grown up and that she was 26 years old, but why did she feel herself being 14, still? Oh man, so strange, she always remembered herself being 14, not 13 or 15 or 16?
Jing Yiran stayed confused for just a bit and then forgot about Lu.
He hade to find Shangguan Ning, not share old stories with Lu.
He himself had no idea why he wanted toe to her office so often. During the past few days when she was absent, he came to the office every day and returned back in disappointment. But when he came here today, he saw her seated calmly in her chair and wearing her usual gentle smile, looking beautiful.
She was no different from the other girls, but he found her unique in every single way.
He had the upper hand when it came to conquering girls but she was the only one who always ended up defeating him. What was more, Jing Yichen was the only one in her heart and that drove him crazy.
But it didnt matter. It was okay if she looked down on him now.
There would be one day when she would regret everything!
He was going to take everything from Jing Yichen, his reputation, his status, his wealth and of course, his woman.
A hint of viciousness shed across Jing Yirans eyes as he strode towards Jing Yichens office.
On the office door, two characters that represented the supreme authority, namely The President, were written.
Jing Yirans fingers syed across the two characters as heughed inside his heart CThis all will be mine soon!
He withdrew his hands, pushed the door open and walked in.
In the office, Jing Yichen was talking on phone in French. Hearing the sound of door opening, he didnt even look up but continued to talk.
Jing Yiran was a bit annoyed by his indifferent attitude towards him. But he soon calmed down and started to survey around the office as if patrolling around his own territory.
Jing Yichen hung up the phone and then looked at Jing Yiran. He was lethal and distant. No more surveying, none of this will be yours however much you look around. If you dont want to die a terrible death, get out of here now.
Hahaha! Jing Yiranughed wildly as he sat down cross-legged onto the chair next to the bookshelf. All will be mine very soon, and you will be the one suffering a terrible death. Do you think that you are always going to win? Bah, you are just extolled by those ignorant ones. What will you do when your properties are all gone?
I may not win every time, but I am capable enough to deal with you. Jing Yichen stayed in the same mood as he always was, except that his look was freezing sharp. Your mother died so easily and you wont die in pain either. You have no right over anything of Family Jing, and your birth was a mistake! Get out of here and continue to do whatever you wish to do. At least, try and prove that you are not an idiot.
Jing Yirans sinister smile disappeared. He red at Jing Yichen with his bloodshot eyes and bellowed furiously, I will never let go of the fact that you murdered my mother. Do you think that you can trick me like you trick everyone else? No one can kill a person as easily as you do. Haha, so your mother died and you wanted mine dead too? How pitiful, because even if everyone else in the world dies, your mother is still dead.
With a loud banging sound, Jing Yiran was unexpectedly attacked by Jing Yichens kick. He spat out a mouthful of blood, instantly.
Jing Yichen stomped upon Jing Yirans fingers. It seemed that the bones had been broken again.
Although I have no idea who killed that woman, but I am grateful to that person, because she should have died ages ago. If you want to join her so desperately, let me do this for you.
Having said the words, Jing Yichen lifted his legs and kicked hard upon Jing Yirans chest again.
Another mouthful of blood gushed out of Jing Yirans mouth. He almost suffocated with the pain from the chest.
He wanted to get up and give Jing Yichen a violent kick as well. But he had already lost his strength and couldnt even breathe.
He spat out more and more blood but Jing Yichen didnt show any mercy. He was going to kill him.
A womans loud scream brought him up from the drifting awareness.
Stop, Yichen, stop! He is dying!
Oh, it was Shangguan Ning. He would have already reached hell if she had beente by even a minute.
Shangguan Ning had been on the way to sort arge pile of documents in her office when she heard some yelling from Jing Yichens office. Fearing that something bad was happening, she rushed in.
The moment she entered the door, she saw Jing Yiran lying on the floor, breathing weakly whilst Jing Yichen stomping his chest.
She tried to grab Jing Yichen and screamed to make him stop.
Jing Yichen stopped when she held him. Seeing his wifes anxious face, he consoled her inposure. It is okay, dont be scared. It doesnt matter if he is dead. If Jingsheng is gone because of his death, I wont be sorry. Jingsheng isnt that valuable in my eyes anyway.
Chapter 272 - Promise to Not Kill
Chapter 272: Promise to Not Kill
With reddened eyes, Shangguan Ning didnt let go of him as she said firmly, No, he can die, but you wont be the one who kills him. You have tolerated him for so many years and you mustnt give up now. Father will be very angry if you do so, and your grandparents will be very disappointed as well. You will lose everything you have. It is not worth the while for his sake.
Lying on the floor, Jing Yiran had thought that Shangguan Ning was trying to save him because she had some feelings towards him. But, she was saying that killing him wasnt worth the while!
Could he be so unworthy even if he died? Could his life be so cheap?
Grievous disappointment dominated his heart. He spat out another mouthful of blood after he was seized by anger. Then he lost consciousness and fell into endless darkness.
Feeling dizzy, he felt someone feeding him something warm and bitter, something that was not so edible. He felt someone feeding him the bitter things one after another and he had to swallow it all down.
A strange scent came from that person. It seemed like a sweet chocte that was addictive.
A cool hand felt over his chest as if trying to smoothen his pain.
Silly boy, why didnt you run?
Was she talking about him? Yes, it was a woman.
Her voice was very catchy, loving and held a touch of concern.
Who was it?
Who was taking care of him?
Her voice sounded strangely familiar.
He tried his best to open his eyes so as to take a look at the person next to him. But his eyes were too heavy to be in his control.
Jing Yiran struggled hard in darkness for what felt like a century when he finally managed to open his eyes.
What greeted his eyes was the familiar room, facilities and doctors...
Where was the person in the dream?
The three doctors who were in charge of his treatment were all male doctors.
Could he have been dreaming?
Second Master, feeling unwell anywhere? Chest still hurting? Head still spinning?
The doctors asked him instantly after seeing him waking up.
Without answering any of the questions, Jing Yiran asked frowning, Was there a woman who was taking care of me?
Well... The doctors were startled for a while. They were quite shocked by this yboy C he was still thinking about women in this state!
But there had been women who came to take care of him.
The doctor told him the truth. Old Lady has been taking care of you during the past few days, and she is now in the kitchen asking the chefs to make food, she is in the kitchen every day....
Anyone else apart from my grandma? Jing Yiran interrupted the doctor before he finished the words.
The doctor answered with an uncertain tone, Aunt Wen?
Aunt Wen was the servant of Family Jing. She had been working for Family Jing for many years and she was 51 years old, responsible for taking care of Jing Yiran. Aunt Wen certainly would take care of him when Second Master was sick.
Jing Yiran said annoyedly, No, I mean, young girl, anyone?
The doctor shook head instantly and said without hesitation, No one!
Second Master must be crazy about women. Why else would he think about them when he had almost lost his life? Even if there was an extremely beautiful woman standing in front of him right now, he wouldnt be able to do anything at all.
The doctor said implicitly, Second Master, you need to take a good rest. It is very normal if you have hallucinations and dreams. All will be fine in a couple of days.
Jing Yiran stared at him dubiously.
Dreams? Hallucinations?
Had he really been dreaming?
He thought for a while and then felt extremely tired. Then he fell asleep again.
In the study of the main house of Family Jings vis, Jing Yichen sat opposite to Jing Zhongxiu, looking distant and cold. He was talking with his father in a normal tone.
Dad, I hurt him. You can punish me ordingly.
Jing Zhongxiu looked serious as he asked coldly, You nned to kill him?
Jing Yichen was silent.
He would have answered without hesitation if he had been alone. He didnt want to lie.
But he always listened to his wife and obeyed her orders. So he couldnt ignore what she had said.
Shangguan Ning told him more than dozens of times that he mustnt admit wanting to kill Jing Yiran and that he mustnt make father angry or fight with him after just a few words.
Seeing his son stay silent, Jing Zhongxiu stopped being so aggressive.
It must have been a normal quarrel where he couldnt control his anger. That was why he hurt Jing Yiran badly.
He said softly, Whatever you may think of him, at the end of the day, he is your little brother. You can punch him and curse him, but killing your sibling is not allowed in Family Jing. You mustnt kill him and that is my bottom line. Zhang Rong owed you and she deserved her death. But Yiran doesnt owe you anything.
Jing Zhongxiu wasnt feeling so well at this moment. He favored his elder son and he had wanted to give everything to him, including all the properties. But Jing Yiran was also his son and it was impossible to abandon him.
In order to keep the bnce between these two sons, he had put so much effort. But it was getting worse and worse and he was so tired of it.
Jing Yichen noticed his fathers moves and behaviors. He hadnt understood his father all this while and assumed that he favored Jing Yiran and thus treated him so strictly and distantly. But now he understood that he was the favored one and that Jing Zhongxiu was just doing what he was supposed to do as a father to Jing Yiran.
He was somehow d that Shangguan Ning had stopped him. Otherwise Jing Yiran would have been killed by him. If he really had killed Jing Yiran, then Jing Zhongxiu would me himself for the entire life C he also had to take responsibility as a father if the elder son killed the younger one.
Jing Yichen looked up all of a sudden and said as he looked at Jing Zhongxiu. Dad, as long as he doesnt touch Ning, I wont kill him. I promise.
Jing Zhongxiu got startled. He had wanted this promise of his son for so long but he never expected that he would say so today after refusing to do so in so many years.
His son had finally grown up and knew how to think in his fathers shoes!
Jing Zhongxiu felt relieved as if a load had been taken off his chest. A smile hovered over his formidable face. Alright, I see. If he ever dares to touch Ning, I will definitely go to him first. If he ever hurts Ning, I will drive him out of Family Jing. That is my promise to you as a father.
Chapter 273 - Jingsheng’s Shares
Chapter 273: Jingshengs Shares
After Jing Yichen left, Jing Zhongxiu stayed in the study for a bit, pulled out a document from the drawer and signed on it.
He walked to the small vi where Jing Yiran lived, with the document.
Jing Yiran was suffering from internal bleeding, so his chest hurt a lot. He woke up in pain every now and then. Since too much painkiller would be bad for the body and make the wound heal slower, the doctor only gave him small doses and that too when he couldnt stand the pain any more.
When Jing Zhongxiu reached there, Jing Yiran was crying out in pain. He wanted the doctor to give him a painkiller.
Doctor Jian, no need for the medicines. Let him make it through himself. You can go out now!
Jing Zhongxiu sounded a bit cold, making Doctor Jian stop midway. He gathered his things, bowed to Jing Zhongxiu and left.
Dad. Jing Yiran let out a cry with a pale face. Then he fell into silence.
He knew that Jing Zhongxiu was not here to see how he was faring. He wasnt yet at the edge of dying, and even when Jing Yichen had got terribly injured and almost died, what he had said to the doctor was nothing other than try your best.
He didnt take any painkillers himself and it was clear that he didnt care much about his injuries. He had always been strict towards his sons and didnt like them crying out in pain.
As a matter of fact, Jing Yiran had suffered much less than Jing Yichen since childhood, because he was not supposed to inherit the family business. Someone was always there to help him get up when he fell and he always got fed when he was starving. Even when he shed tears, someone woulde and console him.
He had once been very proud of these privileges, because he lived like a real master of a wealthy family whilst Jing Yichen had no special rights.
Jing Yichen had to stand up on his feet without help after he fell. When Jing Yichen was starving, no one prepared food for him. He even needed to make money, buy food and then cook for himself. The chef of the family was only hired after he passed the test of independent self-supporting. Therefore, Jing Yichen had been able to cook since he was very young.
Jing Yichen had never shed tears since he was a little boy. No one cared about him however much agony he went through and however much he was wounded. He was always left alone to deal with everything. At the beginning, Mo Lan was concerned about him, but soon she gave up her concern, because Jing Yichen had a strong willpower and he didnt show any pain with that unchanged expression of his.
Therefore, Jing Yichen was able to get his stitches without anesthesia in the present time whilst Jing Yiran would cry out in pain without anesthetic or even pass out.
They possessed a huge difference in the tolerance of pain.
It was not until Jing Yiran grew up did he understand that there could be different kinds of love. Some might be strict with you because they loved you deeply whilst some might indulge you because they didnt love you at all.
With the strong pain in the chest, fingers holding the nket tightly and teeth firmly clenched, he tried to tolerate the pain and avoid crying out so as not to be lectured by Jing Zhongxiu.
Seeing his efforts, Jing Zhongxiu felt less displeased.
He was Jing Zhongxius son and should be able to tolerate some more. Family Jing had no cowards in their stead and every man in Family Jing ought to be persistent and strong and should always stand out in any environment so as to be the winner.
He didnt look at Jing Yirans wound but gave him the document and said calmly, This is the share transfer letter of 10% shares of Jingsheng Enterprise. Sign it and they will be yours.
10% of Jingsheng Enterprise? That meant properties worth billions. That meant that Jing Yiran could be one of the top 10 richest men in A City with the shares.
Jing Yiran took the document and frowned.
He was not pleased.
This was because Jing Zhongxiu had promised to give him half of Jingsheng Enterprise after Jing Yichen breached the regtion.
The shares of Jingsheng Enterprise were not all in the hands of Family Jing. 10% belonged to the Deputy Presidents and the other shares of Jingsheng and many of them had less than 1% of the shares. 10% belonged to grandpa Jing Tianyuan and Jing Zhongxiu had 30%. Jing Yichen, however, had the remaining 50%.
Jing Yichen had already got 10% shares at birth. After he grew up, Jing Zhongxiu gave him 10% more. After he formally took over Jingsheng Enterprise, he got 40% of the shares which were transferred by Jing Zhongxiu.
Half a year after he had taken over the position, he kept buying shares from small shareholders so that his original 40 % shares had been enhanced to 50%, making him upy half of the entire shares of Jingsheng Enterprise.
After he was in the office for one year, grandpa Jing Tianyuan would transfer all the shares to him so that he could have 60 % shares of the enterprise, owning the absolute right of discourse in the enterprise.
Dad, you promised to give me half of the inheritance, meaning that I would have half of the 90 % which Family Jing owns. It should be 45%, not 10%!
10% was way too little for him to fight against Jing Yichen.
He needed more shares and money to bring down Jing Yichen and to control the entire family.
Jing Zhongxiu stared at him coldly. Humans were greedy creatures who would desire for more after tasting the sweetness. And they would crave more and more even after being given more. Only those who were able to control themselves, would be able to seed and to guide Family Jing to move forward steadily. He felt lucky to have made such a decision that Jing Yiran was never allowed to participate in the administration of the family and not given any authorities.
He looked at Jing Yiran calmly and said with a firm tone, I have transferred the 10 % from my own shares and that is all you can get. I promised to give you half, because you were only thinking about Family Jing. But now your mind is somewhere else and you know that better than anyone else. It is already enough that you have received 10%!
Jing Yirans heart sank. His face turned extremely pale and his instincts told him that Jing Zhongxiu knew about him trying to team up with Family Ji!
Sure enough, the next minute, Jing Zhongxiu said with a cold voice, You better know your position and get rid of the ideas that you arent supposed to have. Family Jing has been standing firmly for hundreds of years and no one has ever betrayed the family. You better not be the first one, or no one will be able to save you, not even grandma!

Chapter 274: Marriage by Force

Although Jing Zhongxiu only said a few words, Jing Yiran could already feel his back getting drenched in sweat.
It was because he knew exactly how powerful Jing Zhongxiu could be and how vicious he could get. When he said that no one would be able to keep him safe, he really meant that there would be no one. And if that time came, he would have nothing left.
Jing Yiran had never expected that what he thought as confidential and discreet had already been discovered by Jing Zhongxiu. He was annoyed that Jing Yichen had found out about it. It was because Ji Bo revealed the secret of his own ord, not because Jing Yichen had discovered it. What was more, Jing Yichen had been watching his every move and it was to be expected if he found out the truth.
But Jing Zhongxi had not watched his every move and he still knew about this incident?
Could it have been Ji Bo who leaked the information again?
Or was it Jing Yichen who told Jing Zhongxiu?
Thetter sounded more likely.
Jing Yiran felt furious inside his heart, but darent show any expression on face.
For some reason, Jing Yichen seemed to have improved his rtionship with their father recently.
Even on the most tabooed day, namely Zhao Qings death day, they didnt quarrel with each other. Also, it had been Jing Yichen who carried Jing Zhongxiu back home from the graveyard. It was simply incredible! Jing Yichen seemed to have changedpletely and had even started to address Jing Zhongxiu as dad. He also seemed to be more talkative than before, totally different from his earlier cold self who used to turn a deaf ear towards whatever Jing Zhongxiu said to him.
Jing Yirans men had also told him that every weekend, Jing Yichen ate lunch with Shangguan Nings Uncle, along with Jing Zhongxiu.
Since his men dare not get close to them, they had no idea what they were talking about inside. But they could understand that the atmosphere indoors was very joyful and all four of them seemed to be on good terms with each other. His men had tried to get close to servants of Huang Lihans family to get this much information out of them.
For a long time, the estrangement between Jing Yichen and Jing Zhongxiu had been his biggest guaranty.
As long as they kept quarrelling with each other, there would always be an opportunity for him to take advantage of.
Jing Zhongxiu already favored Jing Yichen and when the estrangement between them two was gone, he would naturally favor him more. Otherwise he would not have transferred only 10% of the shares and probably would have taken it from Jing Yichen instead.
Jing Yiran got quite anxious and uneasy in the current situation. He also got very jealous about the close rtionship between the son and his father.
Jing Zhongxiu never treated him in the same way as he treated Jing Yichen. He knew very little about Family Jing or their secrets. He was not able to make any move in the family. But Jing Yichen knew everything and had the authority to do anything.
Why, why did Jing Yichen get so much more than him?
Why, why must he be less than Jing Yichen in every single way?
Without the support of the family, he would not have the power to get what he wanted or to take revenge for his mother.
And now, he was being prevented from teaming up with other forces.
What could he do to avoid being at the mercy of others? Did his mother just die in vain?
He had sworn at his mothers grave that he would kill Jing Yichen to take revenge for her.
It was natural that he would team up with other forces, otherwise he alone would not be able to fight against Family Jing. He was going to get all the properties and forces of Family Jing to be his own and Jingsheng Enterprise was going to be his as well!
Well, just let it be 10% for the moment. He was going to get more.
With hands holding tightly at the letter of share transference, he felt his fingers trembling slightly and nails whiten because of the force.
He looked down to hide the viciousness and coldness in his look and replied in a hoarse voice, I understand, dad. I will not betray Family Jing, dont worry. It is my home and I have nowhere else to go apart from here. I dont want to go anywhere else, either. I wont disappoint grandma. She brought me up and I will treat her well as a grandson.
Jing Zhongxiu felt assured after hearing his sons words. After all, grandma hadnt brought him up in vain.
Family Jing had enough money for everything. As long as Jing Yiran behaved well, he had endless wealth at his disposal for him to splurge. He could still be the dandiacal and yboy Second Master, and his family would always back him up when something happened.
Good that you understand. Jing Zhongxiu still talked in a cold way. But he didnt look that serious like a minute ago.
One more thing, you mustnt go and pick on Ning. She is your sister-inw, not someone for you to trouble. If you want to get married as well, I can pick a girl with a good background and you can be married this year.
Jing Yiran flung his head and bellowed in a hoarse voice, frowning. Dad, you mustnt interfere in my marriage. I want to pick my own wife, not one based on your standards. Also, I am too young to get married now and I can wait for two more years!
You are 30 years old and there is no need to wait! Jing Zhongxiu had got this idea ages ago. But he was a broad-minded father who never wanted to force his son to marry someone he didnt love. That was why he had always left his two sons be. Jing Yichen finally met the woman he liked when he was 33 years old and got married immediately. Although Jing Yiran was 30 years old, he would not have been forced to get married if he hadnt been a fickle person who always nned something evil.
You should get married soon. Grandma has been worried about you regarding this matter as well. You will settle down when you are married and will not mess around. Jing Zhongxiu felt that if Jing Yiran got married and had his own wife, he wouldnt pick on Shangguan Ning again.
He had already understood that Jing Yiran had feelings for Shangguan Ning.
He could have either developed these special feelings for Shangguan Ning or just approached her because he wanted to get what his brother had. Irrespective, neither of the reasons were proper. Family Jing would never allow anything like this to happen.
Jing Yiran had never expected that Jing Zhongxiu would force him to get married so fast.
Despite the pain in his chest, he sat up instantly and said furiously, I am not getting married! I want to be the master of my own life. You didnt interfere Jing Yichens marriage, then why are you interfering in mine?

Because you are making a mistake that mustnt be made. I have warned you many times not to pick on Ning, but you disobey me and keep doing it.
You can fight with Yichen however much you like. I wont defend either of you however much you bleed. But you are not allowed to touch Ning. She is not from the same world as you two and she is not strong enough to protect herself. She doesnt have a vicious heart, either. If you ever touch her again, I will appoint a wife to you as a punishment and I will even set the wedding date for you.
Jing Yiran was startled.
Would he really be given this serious consequence if he picked on Shangguan Ning? Was the cost his lifetime happiness?
He admitted that he had feelings for Shangguan Ning. At the beginning, he only wanted to get Jing Yichens woman and n to make him taste what failure felt like. Butter, he realized that Shangguan Ning couldnt be taken away, and discovered the merits and special characteristics of this woman. Now, that he not only wanted to rob her from his brother for fun, but because he wanted her for himself.
He didnt want to get married.
Dad, I wont marry anyone. I am not picking on Shangguan Ning, I just like to talk with her. I promise never to badger her any more or pick on her, please, dont make me marry someone whom I dont love. I dont want to spend the rest of my life in this way...
Jing Yiran started to plead. He understood that Jing Zhongxiu liked to be treated with softness rather than the defiant way. Pleading might even make him change his mind.
Without hesitation, Jing Zhongxiu snapped, No. I will find some women of proper age. They will have excellent looks and etiquettes. You can pick any one from them. That is the deal, you will start to get ready for the wedding after you have healed.
Having said the words, he left without hesitation, leaving Jing Yiran alone in the room.
This was totally unanticipated.
Jing Yiran had never expected that Jing Zhongxiu would have thought of such a method.
It seemed impossible to change his decision.
Jing Yiranid down in distress. Pain in the chest made him dizzy.
Unlike some wealthy men who didnt pay much attention to marriage, Jing Yiran really thought that marriage was very important.
Because he had been seeing the unfortunate marriage of his parents. His mother married his father through the nastiest means and had no position in Family Jing whilst he himself had not been given any fatherly love which he deserved.
He hoped that his child could live in a happy family and that he could have a wife whom he loved. He didnt want to be like his parents who were just a couple of strangers, never talking with each other, let alone sharing the bed.
Jing Zhongxiu was well aware of Jing Yirans unwillingness. But his mind couldnt be swayed.
It was necessary for him to find a proper wife for Jing Yiran. He was different from Jing Yichen who couldnt bear being touched by anyone. Before he met Shangguan Ning, anyone who touched him would make him react strongly and vomit terribly. Jing Yiran, however, had no such issues. He had an interest in all kinds of women and enjoyed fooling around with strangers. Therefore, it was not a problem that he married a woman not known to him.
Jing Zhongxiu wouldnt go out to seek for the girl himself. What he needed was a kind and virtuous daughter-inw and handed over the task to Jing Yichen.
After receiving Jing Zhongxius call, Jing Yichen asked his men to find a proper girl among the families that were attached to Family Jing.
Jing Yichen wouldnt cause trouble in this matter, because Jing Yirans wife would also be the face of Family Jing and she shouldnt be bad. What was more, Jing Zhongxiu needed to go through all the selected ones after the first round was finished.
None of the families that were attached to Family Jing were powerful, because the powerful ones often chose to develop independently rather than get attached to any family.
Therefore, even if there was a family behind Jing Yiran, there wouldnt be too much threat attached alongwith.
Jing Yichen didnt care much about the family background. What he cared about was thedy herself..
It didnt matter what kind of girls Jing Yiran liked, because Jing Yichen wouldnt pick one ording to his interest. What he needed to make sure was that the girl was ady with virtues, one that was not going to cken Family Jings name or betray Family Jing.
Two dayster, a thick pile of documents about probable girls was lying on Jing Yichens desk. The documents showcased every girls background history, hobbies, rtionship history, educational experience, family environment and parents details.
By now, it was time for Jing Yichen to take the pills. Shangguan Ning walked into the study with two boxes of pills as well as a mug of warm water.
She opened the door and realized that Jing Yichen wasnt in the study.
Yichen? Shangguan Ning shouted. No reply came back. She came to the desk and put down the water and the pills onto the desk and mumbled, Where is he?
Jing Yichen was at home a minute ago, but he might have just gone out because something came up. So Shangguan Ning sat down on the chair and waited for him.
The pile of documents on the table attracted her sight.
The documents held information about the daughters of famous and wealthy families of A City. She recognized a few of them.
She didnt understand why Jing Yichen was collecting the documents of these girls, but she didnt doubt him. Even if these had been photos of naked girls, Shangguan Ning would not have spared a thought to them because she knew Jing Yichen well, and he couldnt possibly like any other girl apart from her. She trusted himpletely.
By the time she went through all the documents, Jing Yichen was back.
A bitter smile came on his face when he saw the water and pills which Ning had brought.
He was furious inside his heart at the sight of the pills. Why did he have such a disease? It was so demeaning for a man. He had wanted to show the most powerful side of himself in front of his beloved wife but ended up having to take such medicine.
Shangguan Ning scrunched her nose at him and then knocked at the mug with her fingers.
Jing Yichen picked up the mug, took the pills and swallowed them with water.
These are all the pills right? He wasnt scared of these pills, but Jing Yichen was never happy to take them.
Shangguan Ning said in a clear voice, Yeah, thats all you need to take now. We have to go to Family Mus Hospital tomorrow. Mu Qing says that we are due for a checkup.
Jing Yichen nodded helplessly. He hadnt wanted to go but knew clearly that he must go.
Chapter 276 - Wife Selection for Jing Yiran (Part Two)
Chapter 276: Wife Selection for Jing Yiran (Part Two)
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yichen knew the reason why he had got such a disease. It had to do with his past experience.
That was a memory which he never wanted to relive. Only in this way was he able to lead a normal life. But what he hadnt expected was that he would even be injured because of that matter.
Seeing Jing Yichens absent-minded expression, Shangguan Ning waved her hands in front of his face. Hey, what are you thinking, did you hear what I said?
Jing Yichen stopped thinking, took Shangguan Ning in his arms and sat down on the chair before putting her down onto his thighs.
Did you just ask me why we had these materials?
Shangguan Ning smelled nice and her soft body made him rx.
Yes, all of these are the wealthy daughters of A City and I dont think that any of them would be willing to be your concubine. Shangguan Ning joked as she slipped her arms around his neck.
Oh, I am not sure whether they are willing, but I for sure, am not. It is enough for me to have a Mother Tigress at home. How would I survive if one morees.
Shangguan Ning pinched his ears as she said furiously, Who is Mother Tigress? Is there any anyone who is as beautiful and gentle as I am?
Jing Yichen pleaded with a smile. No, no! My wife is the gentlest one. She wont pinch me for no reason or grab me by my ear. These women are for someone else. Please, help me pick and see who is qualified enough to be the daughter-inw of Family Jing.
Daughter-inw of Family Jing?
Startled, Shangguan Ning thought for a moment that it meant C Jing Yichens wife.
But she was the daughter-inw of Family Jing!
But after a few seconds, she realized who these girls were for.
This news really startled Shangguan Ning. She asked incredulously, Jing Yiran is getting married?
This was too sudden.
When did he start to find the beauty all of sudden and prepare to get married?
Jing Yichen nodded and said in a soft voice, Yes, he is getting married soon. Father asked me to shortlist some suitable ones for him to pick from. All the girls with proper qualifications who are rted to our family are here.
Jing Yiran was an arrogant man. Could he possibly ept a stranger as his wife? Could he possibly ept an arranged marriages between families?
Also, it was Jing Yichen who was in charge of selecting the wife, wasnt that a bit too convenient to... pull some trick? How could Jing Zhongxiu trust Jing Yichen for doing this job? Wouldnt he remove the good ones and keep the ugliest girls?
Get him an ugly person. Someone who is hot-tempered and has experienced a lot of rtionships. Oh, it would be great if she could be as strong as Lu who cant be bullied by him and can take full control of him.
Jing Yichen burst intoughter seeing his excited wife. You are more enthusiastic than me about this. I am sorry to disappoint you, because I cant get him an ugly woman. Instead, I have to get him a beautiful and wealthydy with a good temper. As for the strength... well, Lu is probably the only weirdo in the entire A City who has that ability.
Shangguan Ning was confused. She mumbled unhappily leaning in Jing Yichens arms, Well, if we cant pull any tricks, then dont pick one for him. Or he might me you for getting him a bad one. Dad really entrusted us with a terrible deed...
Jing Yichen patted her shoulders and said calmly, It is okay, Jing Yirans wife will be the daughter-inw of Family Jing and you cant avoid meeting her in future. I need to get a good one for him, one who wont cause trouble for us behind our backs.
He didnt tell Shangguan Ning the reason due to which Jing Zhongxiu was making Jing Yiran get married so quickly. He wanted to stop him from badgering Shangguan Ning and to make him give up on her.
But he hadnt expected that Jing Zhongxiu would make the decision to make Jing Yiran get married so soon. When he had given his father a promise of not killing Jing Yiran, he had received a wonderful award in return.
It was a very good method to restrain him by making Jing Yiran get married, because as soon as he got married, he would need to care about the girls family and he would not make a mess and cause trouble recklessly like before.
Therefore, he needed to get a woman with a neutral family. She needed to have a mild yet not weak personality. Otherwise the marriage would mean nothing.
Jing Yichen knew all the families in A City, but he knew nothing about those daughters from the families.
Ning, do you know anyone from these papers?
Shangguan Ning blinked, picked up the documents and leafed through them. Of course, there are quite a few I know, like Qian Yuyu from Family Qian, Mei Kehua from Family Mei, Shen Lingbing from Family Shen and oh look, even Zheng Lun and Anan are here!
Jing Yichen smiled. His men had done what he had ordered to do and Zheng Lun and Anan would fit his requirement, so they were also included in the pile of candidates.
Forget about Anan, and Zheng Lun, none of them fit. Zheng Lun is the apple of the eyes of Zheng Jing and their parents, so they will never not marry her to Jing Yiran. As for others... you can tell me about the others you know...
The couple talked about all the girls of A City and picked out four candidates. Shen Lingbing was one of them and Shangguan Ning knew her personally. Shangguan Ning had met her a few times on some asions and spoken with her. She had a good impression of her. Shen Lingbing was born in a good family but was somehow distant and intimidating. She had a strong sense of family honor and wouldnt pick on anyone or look down on anyone who was less than her. She was also one of the few people who disliked Shangguan Rouxue.
After she finished the selection, it suddenly urred to Shangguan Ning that if she had not married Jing Yichen, would Jing Zhongxiu also have picked a wife for him from these documents and if yes, would she have been also one of the candidates?
Shangguan Ning shivered. It felt so weird to be picked by others from a pile of documents.
Luckily she was married, or Shangguan Zheng would have tried whatever he could, to get her to Jing Yirans bed if he had known that Family Jing was looking for a daughter-inw.
After they finished the selection, Jing Yichen didnt ask his men to deliver the documents to Jing Zhongxiu. It was the weekend the following day and they would have lunch at Huang Lihans. He could give the documents to him in person, then.
The following morning, Shangguan Ning went to Family Mus Hospital with Jing Yichen.
As expected, Zhao Anan was standing next to Mu Qing like a zombie. But she was no longer bellowing or shouting and she didnt look like a maniac woman any more.
Chapter 277 - Leaving
Chapter 277: Leaving
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Shangguan Ning gave the leather suit and red wine which she had brought from France to Zhao Anan. She screamed in delight. She loved wearing leather suits most of all and told Ning that she would wear that when autumn arrived in one month.
Oh, you little devil, good that you still have a conscience! I thought that you would abandon mepletely after you got my cousin! Lun has visited me many times but you were nowhere to be seen in the past one month.
Shangguan Ning smiled and hugged her guiltily. I was abroad for some days and had too many things to do after I came home. So I didnt get time to visit you. But it seems that you are doing very well! Look at you, a bit fatter than before. And your face is quite rosy as well. Is Mu Qing feeding a pig?
Go away, you are a pig! If I am a pig, you are the bride who has a pig as the bridesmaid. Then you are not a good animal either.
Alright, alright, I am not that smart either, okay? Shangguan Ning sat down next to her. Zheng Lun has been here too? Then I will leave the presents here and you can give that to her next time you see her.
Alright, leave them here. But if she neveres, I will treat whatever is given to her as mine! Zhao Anan rolled her eyes and smiled wickedly, looking a bit ridiculous. She couldnt move her body and eyes were the only thing that could move for her along with the facial muscles.
Oh yes, if you have time, please help me check out my restaurant. Mu Qing is a scumbag who prevents me from going anywhere except for the time when he indulges in free activities on the bed at night. For the rest of the day, he just turns me into a zombie. I will definitely kill him when I can move. No, I will break his legs so he cant move either. It will be too easy for him if he dies so fast!
Zhao Anan must be the only girl who could speak of words such as free activities on bed.
Shangguan Ning hadnt visited her own caf as well, because most of her time was spent on Jingsheng Enterprise as well as Liyu Science & Technology. She was involved in discussions regarding some new products. Since Zhao Anan had asked for a favor, she would definitely go and check up the ce for her sake.
That was the ce where she and Jing Yichen met for the first time. Destiny had made theme together. So she definitely was going to make sure that all went well with Zhao Anans restaurant.
Seeing Zhao Anan only able to move her face, Shangguan Ning couldnt help but feel concerned for her. Is everything okay with your body if you continue sitting like this? Do you think Mu Qing is going over the top? You are an outgoing girl, so do you get sick sitting so still? All aside, let me tell you, you look very nice in dress. People would think of you as ady looking like this.
Zhao Anan, however, didnt use Mu Qing of anything. Instead, she smiled and said, I am a beautifuldy, what do you mean by people would think of?
She hated to sit still. But it was a rare opportunity to be with Mu Qing and she felt quite happy. Therefore, the hard time became cheerful as well.
Besides, she knew pretty well that she couldnt stay by Mu Qings side all the time and that she was soon going to have to leave him. So she wanted to cherish it well and to the maximum.
But she couldnt tell anyone about her decision, not even to Shangguan Ning or Zhao Zhao, because both of them wanted her to marry Mu Qing and they would give her a hard time about her decision.
She nned to be away for a long time so that Mu Qing would give up on her and marry a healthy woman and spend the rest of his life in happiness.
She knew pretty well that she would not be able to get pregnant again. She had been pregnant once and she knew how it felt to carry a baby. Her physical condition wouldnt allow her to give birth to one more life.
She couldnt ept that Mu Qing wont have any children, because Family Mu would not want that for sure.
She didnt want to put him into a dilemma.
He might be sad for a while after she left him, but atleast he wont have to live his entire life in agony.
Suppressing the bitterness inside her heart, she talked with Shangguan Ning with a normal expression.
My prettiest sister-inw, when are you holding the wedding with my cousin? I am a busy woman and might not be avable every day! Therefore, please tell me ahead of time so that I can spare the day for you!
She nned to leave secretly after she attended Shangguan Nings wedding. She couldnt quit halfway after promising her best friend. That was Shangguan Nings only wedding in her life, one that she must attend.
Also, Mu Qing would be the best man on that day and would be too busy to pay attention to her all the time. It would be the best opportunity for her to leave.
Shangguan Ning didnt suspect her, because that was how Zhao Anan usually talked. She held Zhao Anans arms and teased her. You are really busy in being the zombie in a hospital. Grandpa picked the date, and I got to know about it just recently C November 21st, please make sure that you are avable on that day!
It was September right now. November 21st was two months away.
Must it be so much longer?
She had thought that it would just take one month at most.
But then two months werent that long either.
Zhao Anan had found the perfect excuse to spend more time with Mu Qing. She could spend the following two months with Mu Qing with a carefree heart.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan chitchatted for a while before seeing Mu Qing and Jing Yichen walk back into the cabin.
Jing Yichen was examined with devices, because he hated to be touched by others. He would rather get the radioactivity from the instrument than be touched by Mu Qing.
Shangguan Ning waved goodbye to Zhao Anan and left the hospital with Jing Yichen.
She nced at Jing Yichen who had a poker face, in the car and asked, How is it? Did Doctor Mu say that you are getting better?
Jing Yichen looked calm and spoke in an unchanged tone, Oh, you can try to find it out tonight.
Shangguan Ning got pissed. She flushed and scolded him. Arent you shameless?
Jing Yichen blinked and parked the car at the roadside.
What are you doing?
Didnt you tell me that I am shameless? Jing Yichen almostughed. He stripped off his shirt proficiently and then moved towards Shangguan Ning to to remove her clothes. You can check it now. As it is, we havent done it in the car in a long time!
Chapter 278 - Clinging
Chapter 278: Clinging
Shangguan Ning flushed because of shyness but also got furious with him at the same time. Hands holding tightly to her clothes, she refused to be touched by Jing Yichen.
Are you crazy? There are so many people outside right now. No way, put on your clothes. We are going to Uncles house and you cant mess around.
Jing Yichen took her into his arms and said in a slightly innocent tone, Didnt you tell me that I am shameless? I was just disying a bit of that trait and you cant even stand that?
Annoyed, Shangguan Ning bent down and bit him hard on his chest. The teeth mark imprinted on his chest, looking wicked.
The woman in his arms was half-naked. Her face was flushed and eyes were bright enough for him to be able to see his own reflection in them. Her plump lips were slightly apart, taking shallow breaths.
Jing Yichen had just wanted to tease her initially, but after being bitten and seeing her face so close to his own, he almost lost control.
But this wouldnt work on this bustling street. Although the car windows were tinted enough to hide the inside of the car from the eyes of people walking past but he didnt want to do that with her in this kind of a ce.
Jing Yichen reached out and adjusted Shangguan Nings half opened top. Then he put on his own clothes, lifted her exquisite chin and kissed hard on her lips before saying calmly, We can wait till tonight to see if your husband has gotten better or not. We should give it our best shot.
Embarrassed, Shangguan Ning simply didnt understand how had she provoked him just by asking about his health!
Annoyed, she leaned towards him and bit him on the chest, this time with the shirt on. She gave him a triumphant look.
Jing Yichen looked at her calmly and smiled. Were you born in the year of the dog that you are so addicted to biting? Do as you wish. I am strong enough to tolerate any kind of pain, as long as you feel that your teeth can handle it.
He controlled the steering wheel with one hand and the other one was encased in Shangguan Nings fingers. His ck eyes twinkled as he held her tightly.
He liked it when Shangguan Ning bit him in this way. He almost couldnt control himself. He had always thought that he was a very disciplined man, but apparently, he lost all self-control in front of her.
Shangguan Ning wanted to pull out her hand but found it impossible. Jing Yichen was holding her so tightly that she couldnt get away from him.
She looked up and found him staring at her.
She was very familiar with this look that was full of love and lust...
I have changed my mind. We wont wait until tonight, we can do it when we get home...
No! We are going to have dinner at Uncles, we will bete!
It is alright, just let them wait. If we get dyed, we will ask them to eat first.
No, no, that is very embarrassing! Shangguan Ning didnt approve of the proposal. How could they ask the seniors to wait for them just to finish that kind of matter? He really was shameless.
It is not embarrassing. Dad reminded me the other day that we should have a baby as soon as possible. If I dont work hard, how would we ever get one? Jing Yichen looked quite calm, but his inner heart was burning like a violent me. He wanted to get Shangguan Ning inside his body as soon as possible.
Was this woman aware of how tempting she was? She was teasing him in such a way that he wanted to drive as fast as he could, to reach home!
It wont work, Yichen. It is already 9:30 and it takes at least one hour to arrive at Uncles. We will bete. Shangguan Ning couldnt think of any other way. She held his arm and threw herself at him in a loving way. We can... do it tonight, alright? You can do anything you want, then. Lets go to Uncles first alright?
She was rubbing herself against his arm, exciting him so much that he was almost unable to drive properly!
Oh, thank you for reminding me that it is only 9:30. It will take me only twenty minutes to drive to Uncles. So we have got two hours left before the lunch starts. Lets go home, now!
Shangguan Ning ended up obeying Jing Yichens bossy order.
Post that, she hurriedly took shower and changed into a new set of clothes. Seeing herself flushing, she turned around and struck at Jing Yichens chest.
It is all your fault! How will I able to meet anyone now?
Satisfied, Jing Yichen kissed her on the face and said smilingly, It is alright. You look much better now. Lets go to Uncles for lunch.
Shangguan Ning put on some makeup. Then she went out with Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen arrived at Huang Lihans even before the food was ready. Jing Zhongxiu was still on the way and yet to arrive.
Jing Yichen pinched Shangguan Nings palm and whispered in her ears. See? I told you that we will make it in time.
His lips were close to her lips. Shangguan Ning pulled out her hand and pinched him hard. She wanted to separate them so that she wouldnt be teased by her uncle.
Huang Lihan had already noticed the couples behaviors. A satisfied smile hovered over his wrinkled face C the most important thing was that his niece was living a happy life.
He could tell that Jing Yichen really loved Shangguan Ning. He was a traditional member of Family Jing who showed a cold face to others but was devoted wholeheartedly to his wife.
Shangguan Ning flung away Jing Yichens hand and ran to Huang Lihans side with a smiling face. They started to chat happily.
Uncle, how is cousin? When will shee home?
Huang Lihan had no idea about what Huang Xinyi had been upto. He didnt even know that Huang Xinyi had teamed up with Ji Lili to set Shangguan Ning up. Shangguan Ning had avoided telling him, fearing that he would get furious and concerned after knowing the truth.
After Huang Xinyi was modded, she was sent abroad by Jing Yichens men and forced back to school for studies.
She was Uncles only daughter and Shangguan Ning wouldnt have hurt her too much. She just hoped that Huang Xinyi would not make any more fuss.
Oh, your cousin is still studying abroad and will not return until the New Year. She has taken great interest in that country and has even got an American boyfriend. It seems that they are getting married. She says that she has found true love. Not sure if it is true.
Huang Xinyi had never faced any problem in getting a boyfriend. If she didnt act stupid or throw any temper, she was a beautiful girl with elegant face, one whom many boys would fancy.
Shangguan Ning didnt care much about whether or not she was getting married. It would be best if she did, because after she started a family, she would not fool around and make trouble and Uncle would feel assured as well.
Chapter 279 - The Treasured Medicinal Wine
Chapter 279: The Treasured Medicinal Wine
Jing Zhongxiu arrived soon. He camete, because he had visited Family Mu on the way.
He gave two bottles of golden color wine to Jing Yichen and then spoke with a rarely-seen smile on his formidable face. I robbed Old Mu of this, one for each of you. Drink when you get home. One spoonful at one time will do. Dont waste even one drop and dont share it with anyone else.
He used the word rob, which startled Jing Yichen.
Jing Zhongxiu, who had properties of hundreds of billions of yuan, still needed to rob anyone of anything?
Jing Yichen found it amusing. But he controlled it and asked as he took the bottle, Treasured? So treasured that Jing Zhongxiu, who didnt care much about the coal mines worth billions, would want to rob another person of the bottle?
He had also stressed that the bottles were not for anyone else. That didnt seem to be Jing Zhongxius style. He had always stuck to his life motto of sharing and giving.
Jing Zhongxiu nodded and said happily, Highly treasured. Old Mu calls it immortal medicine, excellent for keeping fit. He has been drinking this wine and has almost no grey hair.
Shangguan Ning and Huang Lihan also heard what he said. So they came closer, curiously.
Shangguan Ning got enchanted by the color of the wine after she looked at it. So beautiful, just like flowing gold. I have never seen this kind of wine before!
The golden liquid shone brightly inside the transparent wine bottle and it was glowing like thin golden sand rather than liquor.
Huang Lihan also praised it. It looks like something extraordinary. Jing, seems that you have got a really good thing!
Jing Zhongxiu patted his old friend on shoulders and said smilingly, It is indeed a good thing. You cant buy this wine with money, so I had to rob him of this treasure. Old Mu spent more than twenty years in collecting the ingredients and went through repeated experiments and managed to make only six bottles in the past two decades. He drank up two and two were given to your grandparents. Thats how I ended up getting two. Even Mu Qing hasnt got one bottle. He must be ming me at this moment at home, haha!
Jing Zhongxiu couldnt help butugh as he thought of how Mu Wensheng got annoyed when he took away these two bottles.
He had offered to pay for the bottles, but Old Mu disapproved of the proposal. So he had to be a thief.
Shangguan Ning, Huang Lihan and Jing Yichenughed. Old Mu must have regarded this as something so treasured that he didnt even spare one to his own grandson. It must have been very precious.
Doctor Mu was an excellent doctor and had been honored as a legendary doctor, decades ago. He had achieved so much and brewed the medical wine that could prolong lifespan. He himself had imed that he will live upto 150 years and will look like he was in his 50s instead!
Jing Yichen shook his head and his smile widened. This medical wine was so precious that only four bottles were left in the world. Old Mu had got only six bottles and Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan had got the four remaining ones. He must be feeling terrible at the moment.
Shangguan Ning said all of a sudden as she held the glowing liquor in hands. Dad, Yichen and I are still young, what about you and Uncle taking one each?
Jing Yichen looked at his wife in pride. She was filial and not greedy at all. Man, she was exactly what Jing Yichens woman should be like!
Jing Zhongxiu also felt quite gratified to hear what she said. But he had gotten the bottles for his children and it didnt matter if he and Huang Lihan got to drink any.
Ning, it is okay! Just do as what father says. This liquor is very good for girls health and you can even drink it even when you are pregnant. That is what Grandpa Mu said. He kept saying how excellent the wine is and that pregnant women benefit most, because it can help the baby to grow properly and stay healthy. Grandpa Mu said that the wine stops any invasion from happening and people can get really healthy after drinking it.
Jing Zhongxiu would not have tried to rob the wine if Mu Wensheng hadnt shown off. Hearing that it was going to be good for the pregnant women, he wanted nothing more than to give it to Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning finally understood that Jing Zhongxiu had got the bottles for her sake.
Deeply moved, her eyes filled with tears. With a smile on her face, she said, Then Yichen and I will share one bottle and you can share one with Uncle. One bottlests for a long time!
Jing Zhongxiu shook his head and patted Shangguan Nings shoulders as he said, I am happy that you are so considerate. You can take these two bottles and you must start drinking from today. They willst until the day you give birth to my little grandson. Haha, do you think my grandson will run as soon as he is born?
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were speechless. A calm man like Jing Zhongxiu could also be so childish.
A child wouldnt run when he was just born, honestly, he was not a deity! This was wine, not some gic transformation.
The couple were not aware now but soon they would realize that Mu Wenshengs secret prescription of hundreds of years and the wine brewed for decades would be very magical, more magical than they could imagine.
Shangguan Ning had wanted to turn him down, but Jing Zhongxiu said, Dont worry about us. Grandpa Mu has many other medical wines for us, some rtively newer ones, like aged for five or six years. After all, a good wine needs time and treasured medical ingredients and they have to be natural and unpolluted. Grandpa is almost 80 years old and he is fitter than I am! I wont visit him in the next few days because he is probably going to punch me. I will ask him for other medical wine bottles when he is less annoyed. Then your Uncle and I will check out how good his medical wine can be.
Shangguan Ning felt both moved and guilty, but Jing Yichen said lightly, Just ept it when Dad offers. He has never taken back whatever he has given. What we need to do is to give birth to a baby as soon as possible!
Annoyed and bashful, Shangguan Ning red at him. Shut up and no talking!
Jing Yichen turned to look at Huang Lihan innocently. See, Uncle, I have no position at home. You can be totally assured now, because I am not allowed to bully her at home!
Huang Lihanughed. It is okay,e to me if Ning bullies you. Come, lets sit down and eat. The chef has prepared delicious food today. Ning, open the red wine which you brought, and we will drink till we get satiated!
Chapter 280 - Family’s Responsibility (Part One)
Chapter 280: Familys Responsibility (Part One)
The four family members finished the meal in a happy mood. Then Jing Yichen followed Jing Zhongxiu to Huang Lihans study for a conversation.
These are the girls which I have picked, please take a look at them. Jing Yichen gave the documents of the girls to Jing Zhongxiu and said calmly.
Jing Zhongxiu leafed through the pages and nodded. Alright, they seem to be decent candidates. After you finish with your wedding, he will have his.
Jing Yiran was the younger brother and he mustnt have the wedding before Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen had picked several suitable girls who looked like exquisite candidates from wealthy families. It was a matter about the reputation of the family and he didnt pull any trick just because he and Jing Yiran didnt get on well with each other.
Jing Zhongxiu was satisfied. He had taught his son well.
He knew when to consider the overall situation and when not to sulk just because he was displeased.
Jing Zhongxiu was handing over all matters of the family to Jing Yichen one after another. After the father and the son had broken the ice, he sped up the handover process.
It was also because he gradually found that his son was more excellent than he had imagined. He was so capable that he would be able to manage the entire family.
Therefore, Jing Zhongxiu entrusted him to deal with Jing Yirans marriage, because it was the best opportunity for Family Jing to get to understand the affiliated families.
There were a great many things that could be seen through the marriage connection and Family Jings powerful ability could be showcased along the way as well, so that those on the sly would not dare to move even an inch against them.
Jing Yichen had been the master of his own marriage and Jing Zhongxiu had never interfered, because Family Jing were already powerful enough to connect with any family. However, he still needed to make Jing Yichen understand that a single wood didnt make the forest and strong families would need someone to help be their back-up incase of any unforeseen mishaps.
Try to talk with the families of these candidates and tell them that our daughter-inw will be picked from them. See how they react and if any of them is not fully devoted, dont kick them away, just pretend that you are not aware.
Jing Yichen nodded lightly. Alright, I see.
Any family who was not devoted would not have any good consequences, but Family Jing would not need to interfere at all. As long as they sent out some false signals and the forces they had expected to be attached to, would lose tens of millions, then they would definitely try to get rid of them eventually.
Jing Yichen had been sorting the affairs of the family with Jing Zhongxiu since he was young and he was quite familiar with the administration of attached families. However, he had been away for too long after he grew up, so many members of the families didnt recognize him at all.
You will be in charge of Yirans wedding. Keep in touch with me. If there is anyone who doesnt want coboration or try to ruin the family on the sly, you dont need to show any mercy, or they would all be the potential danger of Family Jing in future. Jing Zhongxiu was always a cold-blooded dominator who was vicious and fierce except when he was with Shangguan Ning.
It was impossible not to shed some blood if one was in charge of such aplicated and enormous empire. People got benefits when they deserved them but they also got punished when they deserved the punishment.
Okay, just leave his marriage and wedding arrangement to me. I wont make Family Jing lose face. Jing Yichen answered.
Although he had issues with Jing Yiran, this was not the time to deal with private angst. He could punch Jing Yiran so that he couldnt get off the bed, but he wouldnt mess up his wedding.
Jing Yichen also had no concern about whether or not Jing Yiran would like the women he picked. Nor did he care whether or not these girls would be willing to marry in Family Jing. None of these mattered. The only thing that mattered above all was that they would appear on the wedding date, punctually.
No one was totally unrestrained in the aspect of marriage when he or she is from a wealthy family.
Had Shangguan Ning been from Family Ji, then Jing Yichen would not have married her so easily. He was given the freedom in marriage, but it was not an absolute thing.
If Jing Yiran had not met Shangguan Ning, then he would have picked a woman from the attached families for marriage, even if it meant no sex or no love. It was for the reputation of the family and it was necessary.
Therefore, Jing Yirans marriage was not a special case.
After Jing Yichen knew that Ji Bo got a fiance, the first reaction he had was that Lan Yu was a special woman with an extraordinary background. Family Ji needed a strong connect through marriage more than Family Jing since Ji Bo was not in a steady position. Therefore, if he didnt get a powerful wife for himself, he would probably have no right of discourse in Family Ji in the future.
Jing Yichen frowned and asked when he thought of this matter. Dad, Ji Bos fiance I told you about... have you found out her background?
Jing Zhongxiu shook his head and said, No, Ji Bo conceals her very well and she is very cautious too. She rarely goes out and even if she does, she would have many followers. Our spies couldnt get any useful information. But our mole inside Family Ji has confirmed it to me that she is not Ji Bos fiance!
If we havent been able to find any information, it basically means that the woman is very suspicious. I have this matter under control and she will be noticed as soon as she does something out of the ordinary. You can focus upon connecting different families and establishing influence. They will all be your assisting arms. You should also connect with families in other cities before your wedding, because when you get married, those masters of the families would all be present there and your identity will be fully publicized.
Jing Yichen knew all about this. But he was still a bit concerned after hearing what Jing Zhongxiu said.
These were the essence of the family with a history of hundreds of years. All of them would be given to him after the wedding.
He had not expected to take over these forces so early, because Jing Zhongxiu was only in his 50s and had always taken care of his health. Therefore, he had been fit and full of energy. He had no problem handling these issues of the family.
But he wanted to give Shangguan Ning a wedding so that she could be a bride. They soon would have a baby and they mustnt wait until she got pregnant and became a mother, to hold the wedding.
Therefore, he had no choice but to take over the majority of the responsibilities.
I can have my identity publicized but can we keep Nings concealed?
Once the identity was publicized, they would be confronted with many people who would be critical and put them in limelight. They would lose most of their private life. It could be both beneficial and disadvantageous C it could help to raise the reputation of Jingsheng and make everything easier and simpler.
But that was not a life that Jing Yichen wanted Shangguan Ning to live C to be under the spotlight all the time.
Chapter 281 - Family Responsibility (Part Two)
Chapter 281: Family Responsibility (Part Two)
Jing Zhongxiu had no ns to expose Shangguan Nings identity either. She was the daughter-inw of Family Jing and she didnt need to bear so much stress. Jing Yichen was enough to face any kind of situation. All she needed to do was to live a happy and unrestrained life under the protection of Family Jing.
Alright. Nings identity will be concealed and she wont be discovered unless someone tries really hard to check upon her. Dont worry, Family Jing is capable enough to control the media and PR system of A City and no information will be leaked.
Jing Yichen felt assured. Only by concealing her identity will he able to fulfill the promise to his wife. She wasnt happy to reveal her real identity even in the enterprise. She wanted to live an ordinary life. It was actually a good idea, because she would be able to feel the happiness as an ordinary person.
He, as the husband, had every right to respect his wifes willingness and to offer the protection she deserved.
I think you are fully prepared for your own wedding. But dont hesitate to tell me if you need anything. I have also got a wedding present ready for you and Ning and it will be given to you on your wedding day. The wedding will take ce in the UK. That is an unchanged tradition from generations and you must inform Ning about it. If she prefers another ce, then we can host another wedding there as well. Dont leave any of her wishes to be unfulfilled.
Jing Zhongxiu was very strict with his sons. He had not allowed them to put forward any requests. But he spoiled Shangguan Ning in every possible way, fearing that she would be wronged in some way.
Yes, I will ask herter. Jing Yichen nodded. But his instinct told him that Shangguan Ning will not demand another wedding somewhere else. She was an independent woman who never troubled others for whatever she could handle alone. Therefore, she had never wanted to cause any trouble and preferred keeping everything simple and uplicated.
Jing Zhongxiu stayed silent for a moment and then said, I have given 10% share of Jingsheng to Jing Yiran and he will be part of the enterprise in the future. But you have all the operational right and he wont have any right to interfere with the daily business. So, dont worry too much.
If two men rode a horse, one must sit behind. Same went for an enterprise where no two voices were allowed to co-exist. Otherwise the followers would have no idea which one to follow. As time went by, the two voices would possibly divide into two sections making thepany break down into two.
Family Jing had had one son in each generation for years and no such issues had ever happened before. All the properties of the family would belong to the one single sessor and the enterprise developed steadily. Although there were two heirs in this generation, yet Jing Yiran was bound to be given only one small portion in order to avoid conflict of rights that might ariseter. Jing Yichen, however, was going to keep the majority of the properties and powers, which would be passed down to his own children in future whilst Jing Yirans children would not be able to inherit anything from the family any more.
Jing Yichen was startled after hearing what Jing Zhongxiu said.
You transferred your shares to him? That is not proper. I can give him mine. Yours mustnt be moved.
Jing Zhongxiu had only 20% of the total share left after giving 10% to Jing Yiran. He had too few shares at the moment, considering that earlier he used to be the second biggest shareholder in thepany.
Also, didnt he promise to give half of the properties of Jing Yiran before. Why was he only given 10% now?
Jing Zhongxiu waved his hands and told him not to say anything more.
It is alright. You must keep your 61% and it should never be reduced. Only in this way will you be able to have absolute control of Jingsheng. After your wedding, your grandpa will give you his shares and then you will have 70% in total. You will be the only one on whom Jingsheng will depend from that moment on!
Jing Yichen felt his chest loaded with burden. He had tried his best to get the shares from Jing Zhongxiu and every other shareholder just to get Jingsheng so that he was able to take full control of the business empire. That had always been his ambition as a way of taking revenge, because he felt that he was the rightful owner to these things. He didnt want Zhang Rong and Jing Yiran to get these things away from him.
But at the moment when he was about to get 70% share of this enormous business empire, he didnt feel any sense of happiness. Instead, he felt that he was more burdened and still had a long way to go.
Family Jing had been flourishing for hundreds of years and there were dozens of generations before him. He was already at the peak of the aristocratic family, one that was admired and worshipped by all families with properties all across the entire globe.
He was definitely not going to allow Family Jing to fade in his hands. He was going to make the Family flourish even more.
That was how Jingsheng Enterprise got its name C a flourishing family of Jing. It was a phrase full of significance and it was the expectation from each heir of the generations.
Jing Yichen nodded seriously as he said in a solemn tone, I understand, Dad, Jingsheng will progress and be better under my charge.
Jing Zhongxiu nodded and smiled slightly. I believe that you are going to do well, even better than me.
It was the first time for Jing Yichen to be praised by his father since he was born.
He had never imagined that he would be better than his father, because he was not as diplomatic as his father and what he had been using were his ns and capabilities. Father had been strict with him before because he had a goal! Had father not been strict with him, he would not have grown so fast and not be capable enough to deal with all the urrences proficiently as he was doing it now.
Jing Yichen almost teared up hearing his fathers words. He was definitely not going to let his father down no matter what happened.
Jing Zhongxiu felt emotions overwhelming him. He had never been on such good terms with his son as he was now, because his son never understood him and he never cared about what his son thought. He had been intimidating towards him and there existed a huge estrangement between them, enough to hate each other.
He encouraged his son, because for one thing, he was really doing well whilst for another, Shangguan Ning had spoken with him, sometime back.
Jing Yichen was both high on IQ and EQ. He had already showcased extremely high gift of management as well as capabilities in all aspects. At the age of 14, he had already finished all the courses including those for postgraduate students and by the age of 16, he had graduated from Harvard University with dozens of doctoral degrees, breaking the graduation record made by Jing Zhongxiu.
Also, he had been going through various trainings and tests given by Jing Zhongxiu, physically and psychologically.
He hadpleted every task excellently but Jing Zhongxiu never praised him. He had only nodded and told him that he passed the qualification line.
Chapter 282 - The Strong Medical Wine! (Part One)
Chapter 282: The Strong Medical Wine! (Part One)
Shangguan Ning had once gone to Jing Zhongxiu and spoke with him for a long time.
She had said that Jing Yichen was also a human and needed encouragement, especially from his father. She also said that Jing Yichen had taken a step forward in their father and son rtionship and that he, as the father, should not stay behind.
Jing Zhongxiu had never thought about this before. After hearing what Shangguan Ning said, he was taken aback. Therefore, he changed the way he spoke to his boy, today.
When Jing Yichen returned to the room, Shangguan Ning was making the bed, dressed in dark cotton pajamas.
To make their weekly stay here convenient, Huang Lihan had asked his servants to buy some extra sets of nkets and pajamas that suited the guests.
Jing Yichen held his wife from behind and kissed gently on her silken hair.
Shangguan Ning put down the pillow and turned to face him with a smile. What did you talk to dad for so long?
Jing Yichen picked her up and carried her to the bed. Then heid down with her and took her into his arms. He ced his hands upon her waist, rubbing it gently.
We talked about quite a lot of things. Dad rarely talks so much but he was a bit different today. Did you say something to him?
He knew what Jing Zhongxiu was like. For the first time in more than 30 years, he had changed his style. So Jing Yichen assumed that some external forces must have influenced him.
And Shangguan Ning was the only one who could have possibly persuaded him.
Shangguan Ning had spoken with Jing Zhongxiu ages ago and almost forgot about it. She wondered for a moment and then remembered that she had shared many ideas with Jing Zhongxiu.
I have told dad many things, which one are you referring to?
Jing Yichenughed as he pinched her nose and said lovingly, So you did talk with dad. No wonder he has changed so much. Why didnt I marry you earlier to spare myself so much suffering? I used to suspect that I was intellectually impaired, because he was never satisfied with whatever I did. So I had to study very hard. After I met Mu Qing, I realized that I was a genius. It was only because dad had set too high a standard for me that I felt so dumb!
Poor Mu Qing. He was also a genius in medicine but was shadowed just because he had run into another genius who was capable of anything.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help butugh. She put her head on Jing Yichens arm and said, Is it good to speak so highly of yourself in this way? I am not an intelligent woman. Are you trying to show off in front of me? Seems that dad educated you in the right way, otherwise you would have be too conceited and proud.
Jing Yichen kissed her forehead and showed a gentle and indulgent expression. It is okay if you are not that smart. I can support you. All you need to do is to eat and sleep and dress beautifully. I can handle the rest and you dont need to worry about a thing.
He didnt mention about love in these lines, but he expressed the deepest love from a man to a woman. Shangguan Ning felt moved.
After she married Jing Yichen, her life had experienced tremendous changes. She had be a beautiful swan from an ugly duckling and she, who used to be an unloved Cindere, was now the happiest princess.
This man loved her to the bones and indulged her endlessly. She had turned into a spoiled wife.
She looked up and dropped a quick kiss on Jing Yichens lips and moved away fast. She said happily, I also want to be smart. You can be intelligent but you can be too tired from it sometimes. I can be your supplementary brain when that happens.
Oh, then you must start to eat walnuts as meals, because even though I am too tired to be smart, I may still be smarter than you.
Ha, how dare you look down on me! Shangguan Ning snorted and then pinched his waist. Jing Yichen let out an exaggerated cry of pain.
Wife, have you noticed that my waist is getting fatter these days? Jing Yichen asked with a serious face.
Shangguan Ning felt his waist in bewilderment and asked in surprise. Really? But you exercise every day. You shouldnt have got fatter!
True, I do exercise every day, but that is for the fat. But I can also get bloated because someone keeps pinching me... that would be hard to fight!
Shangguan Ning finally realized what he meant. She pinched again on his waist osciting between anger andughter. Do you want a bigger waist?
Jing Yichen chuckled as he took her in arms again. He held her hands so she couldnt pinch him any more. Then he told Shangguan Ning about the wedding.
Our wedding will take ce in a small town in the UK. This is a tradition of Family Jing and it will be a solemn one. It may not be so romantic due to the site restriction. Do you have any other ce in mind where you want to hold it? If so, we can get married again in that ce, or if you like many ces, we can get married many times, as many as you want.
Shangguan Ning chuckled and said, I dont want to get married so many times. It is exhausting. There is no need for suchplications. I like small towns of the UK and it will be great to have the wedding there. It is very special if all generations of Family Jing have gotten married there. Seems that our parents got married there too, so we have to get married in the same ce as they did. It will be great.
Lets get married once. If you ever want one more wedding, we can n it out. We have such a long life ahead of us.
As they were talking, Shangguan Ning suddenly thought of the gold-like wine Jing Zhongxiu got from Grandpa Mu C they hadnt drank it yet.
She got up from the bed and went to fetch the wine from the living room.
Lets try this immortal drug!
Jing Yichenughed after hearing the name of the wine.
It was such a vulgar name.
Even Golden Wine would have sounded better.
Jing Yichen took the bottle and opened it after much efforts.
As the lid was removed, a scent filled up the entire room. It was not the smell of wine but of a fragrant drug.
When the couple smelled it, they suddenly felt rxed.
Shangguan Ning exchanged a look with Jing Yichen and they were both shocked.
Chapter 283 - The Strong Medical Wine! (Part Two)
Chapter 283: The Strong Medical Wine! (Part Two)
The medical wine was so effective that just the scent had brought benefits for the body. Mu Wensheng was indeed a legendary doctor.
The couple drank only one spoonful of the liquor ording to what Jing Zhongxiu said.
The golden liquid was so thick that it was almost solid. As the liquid entered the mouth, scent filled up their mouths, bringing a unique feast for the tongue.
Fresh and fragrant, it was delicious!
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen had never drunk such a yummy thing ever. Their eyes brightened and turned to that bottle of golden liquid, craving for one more mouthful of it.
But Jing Zhongxiu had stressed that only one spoonful was allowed at one time and no more, because too much would be a waste.
They sealed up the lid reluctantly and fell asleep with the lovely scent around them.
The medical wine seemed to have a hypnotic effect. They fell asleep faster than usual. There didnt seem to be any other difference.
However, it started to show its effect by the second half of the night.
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen kept visiting the toilet!
They got diarrhea, violent diarrhea.
Fortunately, there were two toilets on the second floor of Huang Lihans vi. Otherwise it would be impossible for them to control if they had to run downstairs to the first floor.
The couples frequent visits to the toilets woke up Jing Zhongxiu and Huang Lihan.
They walked up to the living room of the second floor and stopped Jing Yichen who had juste out of the toilet.
What is it going on? Why do you keep visiting the toilet? What about Ning? Is she alright?
Did you eat anything bad tonight? But then we also ate the same thing. Neither your father nor I have any problems. You better go and visit the hospital!
Jing Yichen drank water as he sat feebly on the chair. He had got such serious diarrhea that he was almost dehydrated.
Jing Zhongxiu said to the anxious servant. Get them some salted water, warm salted water.
The servant wiped off therge sweat beads off her forehead and went to boil the water. She had no idea if it had been because of the food she made that Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen had such serious diarrhea. If it was because of the food she made, she would definitely lose the job. Also, she would feel very guilty because Shangguan Ning and Huang Lihan treated her very well and she didnt want Shangguan Ning to have food poisoning.
Jing Yichen felt better after drinking a cup of water. He was about to say something when Shangguan Ning came out from the other bathroom.
Huang Lihan went to help his niece and got extremely concerned. What is it going on? The children will die if this continues.
Jing Yichen was much fitter than Shangguan Ning. So he asked Shangguan Ning to sit next to him and held her as he said bitterly, I think, it must have been because of Grandpa Mus wine.
Jing Zhongxiu was astonished. He sprang up and frowned. What? Something wrong with the liquor?
Could Old Mu have put some weird ingredients into the wine in case of theft?
I definitely need to go and ask Old Mu. My son and daughter-inw are suffering. He better give me a proper exnation.
Jing Yichen held him back and said, Wait, Dad, I dont think anything weird is in the wine. We only drank a small spoon each and the problem arose. Probably we didnt drink it properly or maybe the wine is to be used in a different way.
Huang Lihan got even more anxious. He was really concerned about his niece.
Then what should we do? Just wait and see? How are you feeling, Ning? I can take you to the hospital, are you alright?
Shangguan Ning shook her head feebly and said softly, It is okay, Uncle. I am alright, just feeling very thirsty and weak. Nothing else hurts, not even my stomach.
Hearing the words, Jing Yichen gave her the water mug and said softly as he took her in arms, Drink some warm water, you will feel better.
Jing Zhongxiu got very mad.
He had got this wine without permission, so he never asked how to drink this wine and what side effects could happen. If he called Old Mu in the middle of the night, and ask how to use the wine, he would probably be violently scolded C Jing Tianyuan and Mu Wensheng were the only two people in A City who could scold him as they wished.
Jing Yichen also understood that they shouldnt go to Mu Wensheng at this moment. He was very angry probably and would not tell them anything.
He thought for a while and said, Let me ask Mu Qing and see if he knows anything. He has been with Old Mu for his entire life and cant possibly be unaware of what Grandpa Mu owns.
Jing Zhongxiu nodded and said anxiously, Yes, ask him now.
He was scared that because of his impulse his son and daughter inw would suffer.
His call to Mu Qing went through, and he sounded hoarse. Apparently, he had been woken up by Jing Yichen from deep sleep.
Master Jing, what is it? Cant you just call me when I am at work? I just fell asleep...
Jing Yichen interrupted his babbling talk and asked politely, How are we supposed to drink the precious wine which Grandpa Mu keeps? What is the potential side effect? Why have I got serious diarrhea after just one sip?
Mu Qing was still very sleepy. He asked hazily, What medical wine? He has numerous kinds there...
The golden color wine called immortal drug!
Mu Qing instantly became totally awake after hearing Immortal Drug.
He sprang up from the bed and asked, Master Jing, are you kidding me? That is the most precious kind my grandpa keeps. He doesnt even allow me to touch it. Did you... you drank it?
Yes, I did, Ning and I both took one sip and got severe diarrhea. What is the problem?
Mu Qing got so surprised that his mouth opened to be able to hold two eggs in it.
He was not exaggerating. The gold like medical liquor was truly his grandpas most precious thing. He didnt even allow anyone to even take a look at the bottles, let alone drink them. He was afraid that someone would steal it.
How did Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning get to drink it?
It was not possible. Grandpa was the stingiest man and he couldnt have possibly allowed both of them to drink it. He was his grandson and even he hadnt tasted a bit of it ever.
He scratched his unkempt hair annoyedly. This was not good. How could he have such a low position in his grandpas heart? Lower than that of Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning!
Chapter 284 - One Billion for Two Bottles
Chapter 284: One Billion for Two Bottles
Mu Qing let out a sigh in a frustrated manner C even he hadnt had the opportunity of tasting the flowing gold.
Grandpa said that the liquor had a function of prolonging the lifespan and he didnt need to drink it at the moment because he was young. He would receive it when he got a wife, so that she could drink it when she was pregnant. The wine was good for the baby and an even better generation of Family Mu could be cultivated this way. Hence, no one else had ess to the liquor.
Although he had never drunk the golden medical liquor, Mu Qing was aware of how much to consume and what side effects it would lead to.
Master Jing, if you drank the golden color medicinal liquor, then diarrhea is a normal symptom. Grandpa has kept the wine for a very long time, so the side effects are very strong. It is quite effective in cleaning the filth from inside the body and that is what makes you suffer from diarrhea.
But this wine is only meant for therapy, not for any damage of the body. No drugs are needed. Dont worry, drink as much salted water as you can and you will feel better after tonight, once the rubbish inside you are clears out.
Jing Yichen had the phone on speaker and all of them let out a sigh of relief after hearing what Mu Qing said.
Good that it was not harmful for the body, or they would have definitely needed to visit the hospital for a stomach cleanup.
You mustnt drink the medical wine directly. It works for Grandpa, because he has drunk other rtively younger medical wines, and his system is already clean. You are simply wasting the precious thing by drinking it in this way. Grandpa has spent half of Family Mus money upon these two bottles of wine.
Jing Yichen asked calmly, Then how are we supposed to drink it? Anything we need to pay attention to? I am not sure how to deal with the two remaining bottles.
When Mu Qing heard Jing Yichen say thest sentence in such a calm tone, he lost control and burst out loudly. What? Two bottles?
His voice was so loud that Zhao Anan who was sleeping next to him, woke up.
She mumbled unhappily, What are you crying for sote at night? So noisy! I am tired and need a good nights sleep...
What Zhao Anan said, was heard by the three people next to Jing Yichen.
Leaning against Jing Yichen, Shangguan Ning shook her head betweenughs. Zhao Anan was really careless a girl.
Mu Qing patted Zhao Anans back, got off the bed and continued with the call in the living room.
Mu Qing didnt want to wake up Zhao Anan, but Jing Yichen had spoken as if all he had were two bottles of water. His casual attitude had made Mu Qing lose control of his temper.
Sigh, I finally understand what happened. Master Jing, Grandpa couldnt have given the bottles to you. You must have robbed Grandpa. Even, I havent taken a sip of it. Master Jing, please spare one spoonful for me, just one will do, so that I can taste the gold wine that has been brewed with half of the properties of Family Mu!
That wine was truly worth a great deal of money. Although Family Mu was far less wealthy than Family Jing, it was still a famous aristocratic family in A City. Half of Family Mus properties were about hundreds of millions of yuan and all of that had been spent on brewing this liquor.
Mu Qings heart ached so much that he lost his sleep. He would probably suffer from such ache in heart in the following days that he wouldnt be able to fall asleep.
Mu Qing was feeling sorry for himself when Jing Zhongxiu suddenly asked, Mu Qing, I will ask Yichen to personally invest one billion more in your hospital. Tell your grandpa that I am very grateful.
If Jing Yichen invested one billion yuan personally and not through thepany, then Jingsheng Enterprises share at Family Mus Hospital wont increase else it would have reduced Family Mus right of control.
This was his way of thanking Old Mu for his wine by offering money to Family Mus Hospital.
Mu Qing felt much better after hearing what Jing Zhongxiu said. He could tell it was Jing Zhongxius voice, so he thanked him happily. Uncle Jing, please dont worry about it. I will definitely deliver your gratitude to Grandpa. Grandpa built the hospital with his sweat and blood, and if he knows that you are being so generous, he would definitely not stay angry with you any longer. You muste and visit us sometime.
Mu Qing was not dumb. He had already understood that Jing Zhongxiu must have robbed Grandpa of the wine and given it to Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning.
Oh God, he had never thought that even Jing Zhongxiu would need to rob an old man of something.
Sigh, Grandpa Mu had brewed such good wine and he liked showing off. Two bottles had already been taken away by Old Jing and Old Lady and he still boasted in front of Jing Zhongxiu who took away the only remaining two bottles.
Grandpa Mu must be shedding tears at home at the moment.
Jing Zhongxiu dare not visit Family Mu now, because Mu Wensheng might poison him to death.
He replied saying that he would visit them sometime before asking, How are we supposed to drink the wine?
He remembered that Mu Wensheng had told him to drink it directly, but not too much at one time. But Mu Qing said that it shouldnt be drunk directly. That was what annoyed Jing Zhongxiu. That old man didnt even bother to tell him properly about its usage because of which his son and daughter-inw had to suffer so much.
What Jing Zhongxiu didnt know was that when he took away the medical wine from Mu Wensheng, he had gotten madly annoyed to tell Jing Zhongxiu about the side effects. He had expected that Jing Zhongxiu would be so dehydrated that he would return the wine to him obediently.
Uncle Jing, you must dilute the wine with royal jelly in a one to one proposition and you are not allowed to eat anything 12 hours before and 8 hours after. Only in this way will the effect be most useful. After it is fully absorbed, you wont feel hungry at all.
Mu Qing exined the portion and usage in details, because he knew very well that Jing Yichen was not going to return anything he had taken. What was more, Jing Zhongxiu had promised to give one billion yuan to Family Mus Hospital without hesitation and that amount evened out the value of these two bottles. They must be the most expensive wines in the world, each one worth 500 million yuan. Scary indeed!
Drink in this way for seven days in a row. You cant eat anything on the first day, but you can eat during the following six days. You may suffer from diarrhea and that is totally normal. You can drink it straight on the 8th day and can skip dinners and rece them with the wine. My grandpa has not had dinner for years. He only drinks medicinal wine instead.
After hearing what he said, everyone let out a sigh of relief. They had a better understanding towards this glowing precious wine.
Jing Zhongxiu knew how well Old Mu was doing. But now he knew the reason for it. He had not eaten dinner but drank wine instead, for years, looking increasingly strong with rosy cheeks, and jet ck hair. He didnt look like someone who was almost 80 years old.
God, he did take the old mans two of the most precious things. He finally understood why Jing Tianyuan liked visiting Family Mu.
It seemed that he should also visit Old Mu more often!
Chapter 285 - Robber on the Highway
Chapter 285: Robber on the Highway
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen, who kept visiting the toilet throughout the night, finally stopped when the dawn came. They managed to sleep peacefully for two hours.
After they got up at 8, they had expected to feel feeble and dizzy like the night before, but the situation turned out to bepletely different.
They had no difort after diarrhea, instead felt that the body was rxed and full of energy.
How marvelous!
The medical wine showed excellent aftereffects and it seemed that their physical condition was definitely going to improve if they drank it regrly.
Jing Zhongxiu and Huang Lihan had also been worried that they would have problems after diarrhea, but seeing both the kids happy and cheerful, they felt that a load was taken off from their chest.
Yichen, Ning, how are you feeling? Anything amiss?
Smiling brightly, Shangguan Ning said, Dad, we are both doing great. The delicious wine which you gave us is a precious treasure. I feel so light and strong at the same time, to fly off the ground. I might even be capable enough to walk on water at this rate.
The wine was indeed a precious thing, except that it might be a bit too expensive, especially when one billion was spent on it. Jing Zhongxiu was so generous. She finally understood why Jing Yichen possessed a sense of a lombard C he might have learnt that from Jing Zhongxiu!
They all were amused by Shangguan Nings words.
Seeing his son and daughter-inw looking radiant and vigorous, Jing Zhongxiu was very happy.
Luckily, he hadnt robbed the eighty-year-old Old Mus things in vain after sacrificing his morals. He wasnt sad to have spent one billion and will not ask Jing Yichen to pay the bill either. He was going to pay for the one billion he had promised, since it was a gift to the couple from him. Jing Yichen will be the investor in name only. Honestly, Family Jing still emerged as the victorious one here. Mu Wensheng had not wanted to sell him these two bottles and he still managed to get them, even if he had to pay one billion yuan.
Follow Mu Qings instruction. Drink a little at a time and you will have the two bottlesst an entire year! Jing Zhongxiu was in a very good mood. He had an affable smile on his face and felt very proud as a father to be able to get what his children needed to stay healthy and happy.
I will take something more from him when you finish with these two bottles. Old Mu has run out of the gold wine, but he has many other kinds, like the light yellow, the white ones which have lower density than these two bottles. He must have brewed those wines during recent years. ording to Old Mu, they are great for health as well.
Shangguan Ningughed. Jing Zhongxiu was developing a habit of robbing. He now looked far from the image of a formidable president who possessed hundreds of billions of properties. He was now a robber!
Thank you in advance, Dad. You can ask Uncle to go with you so that the two of you can look after each other. Old Mu is fit and strong, but he might not be strong enough to deal with both of you. Haha!
Huang Lihanughed. Okay! I will go with him. I havent met this legendary doctor whom everyone talks about.
Jing Yichen couldnt help but shake his head when he was reminded of the scene where his ears had been pulled by Old Mu and Mu Qing was addressed as a little bastard.
He said smilingly, You might be very surprised to meet the legendary doctor, because he... scolds everyone he runs into, especially the ones who rob him of his things.
They talked andughed for a while. After making sure that the couple was fine, Jing Zhongxiu and Huang Lihan went to eat breakfast.
But Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen left for home without breakfast, just as what Mu Qing had instructed them to do. They were not hungry, either. Instead, they felt like being bathed in the warm sun.
Seated in the car, Shangguan Ning tilted her head and said, Not sure what Grandpa Mu has added inside the wine. It seems to be so nutritious. I am not feeling hungry at all.
Jing Yichen nodded and a smile hovered over his face. Dont you know that Grandpa Mu really likes collecting different precious things. He refuses to move even an inch when he spots some rare medicinal materials. Also, he demands that he should only be given medicinal materials as presents on his birthdays.
That was so strange. Medicines as birthday presents? So inauspicious!
But Mu Wensheng didnt care about auspiciousness. He knew pretty well how long he could live and that his lifespan would not be reduced just because someone gave him medicines as birthday presents.
Grandpa Mu must have put the best things which he collected throughout his life into that wine, hasnt he?
Yes! I know that he has been researching in this field to prolong lifespan, and keeps saying that he will be able to live until 150 years old. We had taken that as a joke, but it seems that he was not joking at all. He is definitely going to pass down the secrets to Mu Qing, so we can visit Mu Qing often and get things from him in the future.
Jing Yichen had just talked about getting things from Mu Qing when he appeared right in front of him. This time, he was here to rob him of things!
Ah, Master Jing, you are finally back. I have been waiting for two hours at the gate of yourpound. Quick, give me one sip of the gold wine. My grandpa says that one sip, one decade more.
Mu Qing couldnt stop himself from opening the door for Jing Yichen as if he were his servant.
Seated in the white Jaguar, Zhao Anan rolled her eyes and sighed with hands against her head. Does he look like the Head of a Hospital? Must he be so excited for just a sip of wine?
She unfastened her seat belt and walked out of the car. Mu Qing had stopped restraining her anymore because she had been behaving well.
Hey, what did you drink? I heard you talking about that for half ofst night. I also want a sip of this precious thing.
Shangguan Ning got both annoyed and amused seeing them tangling with each other as if they were about to start a fight.
Jing Yichen sat in the car calmly and had no expression on the face. But Shangguan Ning could feel that he also wanted tough. The grandson hade to rob them of the thing which they had taken away from his grandpa. He looked like a robber who had popped up on the highway.
Go and ask your grandpa if you want any. We have got only two bottles here, too little to share. But you have many at home.
Jing Zhongxiu had taken the bottles for their sake and he was going to be scolded by Grandpa Mu as well. Also, he had paid one billion yuan for the wine. Mu Qing wasnt going to get even one sip from it!
Jing Yichen had decided the night before that he would not drink a lot from the bottle. He would give the maximum to Shangguan Ning, especially when she became pregnant. She would need sufficient nutrients and the richly nutritious wine would be of great help. He was not going to waste even a single drop, considering that Grandpa Mu had bragged so much about how good it was for pregnant women and babies.
Chapter 286 - Not You Anan
Chapter 286: Not You Anan
Grandpa has brewed only six bottles of wine, right? Four are already with your family. Am I not even allowed to take one single sip from them? I grew up watching these bottles, and I am the heir of Family Mu. So howe I am given none of the bottles? I must have a taste of what it is like.
Mu Wensheng had brewed the bottles of medicinal wine for more than two decades. The 30-year old Mu Qing wasnt lying about growing up watching these bottles.
When he was young, he had been told that the bottles contained precious things and that he was not allowed to touch them. He had watched the wine change its color from light white, to pure white, to light yellow, to darker yellow until after two decades, the colors of the wine finally became that of flowing gold.
Mu Qing had tasted the other medicinal wines which Grandpa Mu brewed. He had grown up drinking all kinds of these wines, so he was healthy and strong, possessing an excellent immune system, antitoxic ability and cells regeneration and more.
But he had not taken even a single sip of this medicinal wine, and had been drooling for so long. This one couldnt bepared with all the other wines.
Zhao Anan was also fond of the good things in life. Hearing that Mu Qing wanting to drink the medicinal wine at any cost, she guessed that it must be a very precious thing. So she demanded. Me too! Bring it out! No hiding!
Jing Yichen disapproved. Stay away from us. You two are not smart enough and it would be a waste to drink it. Go home and drink cold water instead. You two are fit for that useless thing only.
He was truly lethal in delivering blows to people.
But Mu Qing and Zhao Anan were used to his barbs, because both of them had grown up under the shade of Jing Yichens intelligence. They didnt care about what he said, because after all, it was true. They were not as smart as Jing Yichen.
But, what did drinking wine have anything to do with intelligence?
They were not smart enough, but they could be more shameless than him.
They would stay and badger these two till they got what they wanted.
Shangguan Ning helplessly watched Mu Qing and Zhao Anan standing in the way, babbling about taking a sip of the immortal wineC that was what Mu Qing called the liquor.
Yichen, we have two bottles here. Give some to them to have a taste! Shangguan Ning couldnt stand it any more, so she also turned to Jing Yichen and begged him.
Jing Yichen pped his forehead and turned to her helplessly. Honey, can you not be so generous? These two bottles are worth one billion yuan and one sip would be worth hundreds of millions. Cant we just take it slow in finishing the drink? Mu Qing is just pretending, dont be fooled by him. He has been drinking numerous kinds of medicinal wines since he was young. Even, I am not as physically strong as he is!
Oh really? Shangguan Ning blinked. But she still felt sorry for Mu Qing. Also, Grandpa Mu was the original owner of the wine and he might have thought about passing it down to this grandson before they took it away. He should have the right to take at least one sip.
After a lot of badgering, Jing Yichen got so impatient that he brought out the wine and spoke with a frown, Only one sip!
Mu Qing got so excited at the sight of the flowing gold liquid that he had no idea where to put his hands.
Zhao Anan also stared at the bottle excitedly C she had never heard about this beautiful wine.
Mu Qing had even brought a measuring cup from the hospital.
The moment the lid was removed, the fragrance spread around making all four of them feel rxed and happy.
He took out the little measuring cup from his pocket and poured five ml from the bottle carefully. Although Jing Yichen was the owner, Mu Qing didnt want to pour extra. It would be a waste if he drank too much at one time. He had no intention of ruining the drink. It was an achievement done by his grandpa and had taken more than two decades. He had risked his life to bring some of the ingredients from forests and some of them were bought off from auctions. It was a precious thing, much more expensive than gold.
Mu Qings fingers trembled out of excitement. It was the wine which he had been watching for twenty years now.
And today, he finally got to have a taste of it.
Mu Qing held the wine below his nose for a long time and then poured the gold-color liquid into his mouth, slowly.
The taste spread over his tongue, making Mu Qing feel fascinated and pleased.
It was indeed different from the young medical wines that he had been drinking.
There was nothing like this in the entire world. He wanted to drink up the remaining bottle after that one sip.
He licked the measuring cup thoroughly, making Zhao Anan frown.
Hey, cant you behave a bit decently? How am I supposed to drink from the measuring cup which you have licked?
Mu Qing looked at her and his happy mood gradually disappeared. He said with a dark expression. Not you, Anan.
Zhao Anan didnt understand what he meant. She screamed. Why not me? The wine smells so nice and it must be so tasty. I want to drink it too! What are you being so stingy when the wine is not even yours.
Shangguan Ning didnt understand either why Mu Qing said so. But she knew pretty well that Mu Qing wasnt being stingy. He had never been miserly towards Zhao Anan.
The wine is too nutritious and stimting. You are not supposed to drink it. Mu Qing sounded a bit sad, but still wore his usual smile.
Zhao Anan understood instantly.
Earlier, she had cancer cells in her body. So, she was not supposed to eat anything with extra nutrients. She could eat or drink any normal nutritious thing, but this wine was full of ginseng and herbs of thousands of years, which might cause a return of the cancer after a patient had recovered from the treatment.
That was why Mu Qing didnt want to give her a sip.
Zhao Anan stiffened slightly but then recovered and smiled happily.
Both Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen also understood why Zhao Anan wasnt allowed to drink it.
Zhao Anan didnt look like a woman with any sickness. She looked healthy and happy, so no one treated her as a patient or remembered the history of her illness.
Chapter 287 - Jing Yichen’s Birthday Gift
Chapter 287: Jing Yichens Birthday Gift
Shangguan Nings heart ached. Howe Zhao Anan, an outgoing and sunny girl, had got such a disease? God was really unfair. It didnt matter if she couldnt drink the wine. Nothing else would also matter, as long as she could be fine and live healthily.
Alright then! I dont think of it as a precious thing anymore. This thing makes people get severe diarrhea. Scumbag Mu, why are you still fine?
Zhao Anan, cant you just say something good about me? I am the Head of a Hospital and I am physically strong. How can I suffer from diarrhea like these two? You badgered mest night and didnt want to let go of me. You kissed and bit me all the time, and now you make yourself sound so ruthless? Wont you feel lonely if I visit the toilet too often today? Also, how would I be able to keep up with you in bed tonight?
Shangguan Ning wanted to cover her face with her hands. How did Mu Qing be so shameless? Couldnt they stop showing off their intimate behaviors? She would have been deeply tormented because of their words and behaviors, had she not been married to a man who loved her deeply.
But his words drove away the awkwardness that was present a minute ago.
Shangguan Ning saw Mu Qing from the corner of her eyes. It seemed that he was a sensitive and smart guy.
She put the wine bottle back in the car. In the meantime, Zhao Anan had already started to argue with Mu Qing.
You scumbag! I didnt badger you. It is you who is badgering me. Dont try to ruin my reputation. I am not the woman you think me to be. I am a girl who lives a clean life. I wont feel lonely and p loudly if you were to get diarrhea!
You have no reputation left to maintain because everyone at the hospital knows that you are my woman and dont even think about denying it. If you dare to escape again, I will go and get your household registration book from Aunt Zhao and take you to get us registered after drugging you.
You are such a shameless man who only knows dirty tricks. That is not what a decent man would do.
I have never considered myself as a decent man, though, as a matter of fact, I am. But I need not be decent when dealing with you. I will never manage to get a wife if I act decently. For you, I will always be a shameless.
...
Jing Yichens head hurt because of their argument. He interrupted them in a cold tone. Shut up! One more word and I will toss you both into the sea.
The two noisy people stopped all of a sudden and stood there obediently.
The world got quiet again and Jing Yichen said calmly, It is grandmothers 78th birthday, go and visit her today with Mu Qing.
Zhao Anan hopped as if her tail had been stomped upon. What? Grandmothers birthday? What date is it today?
She asked as she started to rummage through her bag for her phone. She checked the calendar and then screamed. Oh my god! It is the 28th today! Grandmother will definitely me me for forgetting her birthday. Lets go and visit her, now.
Mu Qing nodded happily. Okay, okay, lets go and visit her. I drive fast and we will be there in no time. Dont worry.
Zhao Anan smiled and said, Hang on, Director, it is my grandmothers birthday, not yours! You are a busy director who is in charge of the development of a great hospital. So, you better get out of here and head back to your hospital for your female patients. I will go with my cousin, so bye-bye!
Mu Qing didnt back off. He grabbed hold of Zhao Anan and pulled her into the car.
He smiled brighter than Zhao Anan and said, Anan, dont be so polite, your grandmother is mine too. Shouldnt I go and visit her on her 78th birthday and offer my congrattions as well? I think that grandmother is definitely going to like me, because I am such a sessful and handsome young man. Also, I have got some good things for her as a birthday present and you have no right to turn them down on behalf of your grandmother.
Having said the words, he nodded to Jing Yichen and told him that he would be back in half an hour and drove off.
Seeing them gone, Jing Yichen drove into thepound. Keep our wine hidden and no telling anybody about it, in case someone takes it away or drinks it up.
Shangguan Ning shook her head andughed. He was referring to Mu Qing, because he was the only one who knew about the value of this liquor.
It is grandmothers birthday today? You didnt mention that before. I have not prepared any presents. Shangguan Ningined.
Jing Yichen had never given much thought to birthdays or festivals, probably because he had never celebrated anything for the past thirty years.
As for Jing Yichens birthday...
Shangguan Ning asked in an uncertain voice, Is your birthday on January 1st? That is what your ID card says. I didnt pay much attention earlier and didnt end up giving you any birthday present.
It was such a unique date!
But it seemed that January 1st of this year was in the month before Chinese New Year, when they had just got married. At that time, Shangguan Ning had no idea when his birthday was, so she had prepared nothing.
But Jing Yichen shook his head unexpectedly. A smile hovered over his face, making him look handsome.
No, my birthday is not on January 1st, it is just a date on the ID cover. But you are wrong to assume that you have given me no birthday present. You have and it is the most extraordinary and beloved one.
Shangguan Nings heart skipped a beat hearing what he said. She asked in confusion, What have I given to you?
Jing Yichen turned his head and looked at her intensely. Yourself!
Sure enough!
So he was celebrating his birthday on the day when they got married!
How wonderful!
So their wedding anniversary would be on the same day as his birthday and it would be a very happy and lovely day every year.
Shangguan Ning felt her heart skipping a beat hearing his confession. He looked like a distant and cold man, but always spoke warm words that could strike the chords in the deepest part of her heart.
She held his hands and said in a gentle tone, I didnt know that it was your birthday at that time. If I had, I would have treated you better.
It wasnt a pleasant day when they had gotten their certificate. But Shangguan Ning considered it beautiful and romantic now when she thought back to that day. She still remembered his furious look and the warm arms he offered. She also remembered his gentle kiss, their first kiss.
Jing Yichen felt very proud when he thought of what he had done at that time. He felt that it was right of him to be bossy then, otherwise he didnt know when would he have gotten this woman home as his wife!
Men should act fast when the right timees. Hesitation often makes things worse.
Chapter 288 - Family Zhao
Chapter 288: Family Zhao
Jing Yichens face was beaming with happiness. You are enough for me. Honestly, I myself have also forgotten when my birthday is.
Jing Yichen hadnt celebrated his birthday for years. He didnt care much about birthdays because Jing Zhongxiu didnt care much about these things, either. He had never celebrated birthdays for his son and didnt make his training easier just because it was his birthday.
Jing Yichen had spent numerous birthdays on strict training. Jing Yiran, however, didnt do any training and received well organised birthdays every year by Mo Lan. Therefore, Jing Yiran looked like a real master on the surface in Family Jing.
Hearing that he had forgotten his birthday date itself, Shangguan Ning felt deeply concerned for this powerful man.
No one forgot about their own birthdays, easily. Everyone treated it as a special day and birthday banquets were held each year for family members and friends to gather and enjoy together. Even she had birthday celebrations despite growing up under the shadows of a stepmother.
She took Jing Yichensrge hands in her own and asked softly, So you never had a birthday party? Dad never celebrated it for you?
Jing Yichen was used to not having a birthday celebration and it wasnt so important in his opinion. But he felt happy when Shangguan Ning showed concern.
Hmm, I didnt have any celebrations because dad thought that it was a waste of time and didnt hold any special meaning. He never celebrated his either. But you will need to celebrate it with me, because that is a wifes duty and the benefit a husband enjoys. I am looking forward to it.
Shangguan Ning agreed happily. Alright, I will celebrate your birthday every year. Now, what should we do about grandmothers birthday present?
Dont worry, I have asked Tiger to get it ready. We just need to pick it up.
They arrived home and got dressed in formal dresses. Jing Yichen wore a white shirt and a pair of ink colored pants. But Shangguan Ning dressed up in a shining red dress.
Seeing her dressed in such an odd way, Jing Yichen got a bit startled. Why this one?
Shangguan Ning didnt like shining colors, so she had kept this dress in the wardrobe and never worn it.
Shangguan Ning spun in front of the mirror and said smilingly, Its Grandmothers birthday! Old people tend to like happy colors. It is a good day, so I decided to wear it. She will definitely like me.
So she had put it on just to please the seniors.
Jing Yichen shook his head with a smile. You dont need to care about what others think of you, as long as I like you. That is enough. You are going to spend the rest of your life with me. Just deal with the others casually.
Maybe it had been because he lost his mother when he was little andcked care, Jing Yichen didnt hold family love in high esteem. He was just a little warm towards Jing Zhongxiu whom he admired. But he still held grandma Mo Lan and grandpa Jing Tianyuan at a polite distance.
Others didnt even register on his radar.
This was the best he could do by participating in celebrating his grandmothers birthday. He had forgotten about his own birthday, but not the seniors.
They got ready and went downstairs with the present after Mu Qing and Zhao Anan arrived. They drove to Family Zhao together.
Shangguan Ning had already witnessed the luxurious nobility of Family Jing, but she was shocked by the fancy appearance of Family Zhao. Unlike Family Jing which kept a low-profile, Family Zhao showed off their affluency to people in every possible way.
They drove for a long time around the garden after they entered the vi before pulling over in front of the gate.
Bodyguards in ck uniform bowed to them on the broad path, intimidating and impressive.
No wonder Zhao Anan didnt talk much about her family to her. Her family was simply too rich for general folk to feel fair.
Family Zhaos garden-like vi was located in the most luxurious area of A City, upying thousands of square meters on this preciousnd. It was an aristocratic family true to its name. However, Zhao Zhao and Zhao Qing were the only heirs of Family Zhao. There was no man in the family and Zhao Qing had passed away in her 20s. Zhao Zhao had experienced a bad marriage and that had made her decide to not remarry. She had only one daughter Zhao Anan and focused all her attention on running the family business.
Zhao Anan wasnt exactly healthy, so Zhao Zhao didnt n to tie her down. They had endless money to spend and she didnt need to force her daughter to work in order to make money. She would leave plenty of properties to her daughter so that she could spend as much as she wished and in whatever way. If Mu Qing was willing to marry her daughter, all properties of Family Zhao would be given to her as dowry.
As for the Family Zhaos Jewelry business, Zhao Zhao had nned it long ago to give it to Jing Yichen, because half of thepany belonged to Zhao Qing and that was the part which Jing Yichen should have. She nned to give her own share to Jing Yichen as well, because her nephew was definitely going to take care of Zhao Anan once she was gone. If something happened to Family Mu or Mu Qing changed his heart, Zhao Anan would still have a family to fall back upon. She couldnt trust Mu Qingpletely but she trusted her sisters son. As long as he had food to eat, he would not allow Zhao Anan to starve.
Of course, Zhao Zhao was just preparing for the worst. She thought that as long as Mu Qing epted her daughter, he would not change his mind very easily. Family Mu was a decent family and no scandals had ever urred there. Mu Qings parents were not very famous, but they were a loving couple and had educated their son well.
Zhao Zhao was already waiting at the gate eagerly.
She had received Mu Qings call in the morning that they wereing to celebrate the birthday with the Old Lady.
Seeing the two cars drive in, Zhao Zhao walked down along the marble staircases and came to them.
As the cars pulled over, two cute couples walked out.
One was her tall and handsome nephew with his beautiful, gentle wife whilst the other was her outgoing daughter and sunny son-inw-to-be.
They were indeed a feast for the eyes!
Aunt!
Hi Aunt!
Greeting, Aunt Zhao!
I am here, Mom!
They greeted her cheerfully and made Zhao Zhao smile brightly. She nodded at them and said, Greetings! Wee to Family Zhao!
Chapter 289 - Birthday Celebration
Chapter 289: Birthday Celebration
Zhao Zhao took her daughter by one hand and Shangguan Ning with the other. I am so happy to see all of you, you must visit me often. Anan is not an obedient girl. If she ever causes you trouble, you muste and tell me and I will teach her a lesson.
Anan was very displeased. Mom, am I really your daughter? You leave me alone in the hospital and let me get tormented by this scumbag Mu Qing, and now you are ruining my reputation here. Lets go to the hospital to get a DNA test. I feel that I must have been picked up from the street.
Zhao Zhao struck hard on Zhao Anans back and red at her. Nonsense. Such crazy talk! If you were not my real daughter, I would have left you on the street already thanks to your terrible personality.
Zhao Anan felt her back which was hurting after her mothers hit and mumbled. She cant be my real mother for striking me so hard. This woman wants to kill me.
Zhao Zhao ignored her and turned towards Shangguan Ning and Mu Qing. Ning and Mu Qing, it is your first visit at our home. Please make yourselvesfortable. Yichen and Anan can be your guides and show you around. We have kept several animals at home and I guess you will like them. You can even take some home.
Shangguan Ning held Zhao Zhaos arms and smiled sweetly. Thank you, Aunt. Then I wont be polite if I see anything I like.
Mu Qing showed a very bright smile. He was dressed in a formal blue shirt and a pair of coffee color pants, a suit that he almost never wore. His hair was neat and he looked serious and capable, totally different from his usual look as a dandy. He was behaving like a noble man and his smile at this moment could charm any girl in the world.
Thank you, Aunt Zhao! But I am not interested in any animals. I only want Anan!
These words were so blunt that Zhao Anan who was standing next to him almost got pissed.
But Zhao Zhao was d. She enjoyed hearing Mu Qing talk in this way.
Therefore, she moved away from Ning and her daughter and went to hold Mu Qings arms, instead. She looked at him like a mother-inw and said with pleasure on face, Okay, okay, good boy, I like your honesty.
Zhao Anan got speechless hearing her mothers words.
Was that called honesty?
Who taught you Chinesenguage, mom?
And Mu Qing was being shameless.
But what was wrong with her heart? Why was she feeling so happy?
They were just talking when the Butler of Family Zhao walked out and said, Lady, the Old Lady is waiting in the living room, asking why are the masters anddies not here yet.
Zhao Zhao knew that the Old Lady must have gotten impatient so she sent the Butler to invite the guests in.
Sheughed and took them in. Lets go inside and talk there. Old Lady was very happy to hear that you all areing. It is definitely going to be a wonderful day. She has changed into new clothes and you must remember to praise her dress, otherwise she would want to change again! Hahaha...
Shangguan Ning and Mu Qing nodded smilingly whilst Zhao Anan couldnt wait but rushed indoors before everyone else did. Jing Yichen walked silently behind Shangguan Ning with a calm expression. But he had a smile on his face and apparently looked to be in a good mood.
Shangguan Ning followed Zhao Zhao in and caught sight of a fit olddy seated on the main seat.
Her hair was grey but she had very few wrinkles on the face. Her face was rosy and smiling. She was dressed in an amber color dress which fitted her well, making her look very fashionable and far from an olddy of 78.
Old Lady shared the same family name as her husband, and her first name was Fu. The master of Family Zhao passed away ages ago. She had brought up her two daughters alone and expanded Family Zhaos Jewelry to thisrge a scale. All the top-notch jewelry made by them during the past decades had been extremely popr among severalrge families.
She was smart and capable, friendly and affable. When she saw her grandchildrening in with their partners just for her birthday, she was so happy that she kept smiling brightly.
Come to me, all of you. Let me take a good look at you. You are so pretty and that makes me happy.
Her eyes brightened when she caught sight of Shangguan Ning. She grabbed onto her and said a firm voice. This daughter is so lovely, and properly dressed. Come, I will give you the best greeting present. Haha!
Zhao Fu knew that Jing Yichen got married sometime back, but she had never met her granddaughter-inw. Whatever she knew about Shangguan Ning came from Zhao Zhao and Zhao Anan, who both spoke highly of her. Meeting her today, she found her excellent as well C she had been in business circles for her entire life and was a good judge of character.
Shangguan Ning didnt reject her either. She smiled warmly and said sweetly, Thank you for your kindness, Grandmother. Wish you a happy birthday! You look so young and the dress is really pretty.
Though Zhao Zhao had told them topliment the Old Lady, Shangguan Ning felt that the Old Lady was dressed fashionably, totally worth the praise.
Grandmother, here is our present for your birthday. Wish you live a long and healthy, happy life! Shangguan Ning said as she passed the gift which Jing Yichen had prepared for her.
Zhao Fu got increasingly happy. She took the gift and gave it to the Butler without seeing what it was and thenughed. Alright, alright! I will live long enough to hear your sweet words. You are a much better talker than Anan. Seems that I need to give you one more greeting gift today.
Shangguan Ning felt a bit uneasy. She shouldnt be getting so many gifts.
But Zhao Fu spared no time for her to turn down anything. She gave two exquisitely packed boxes to her without hesitation. Just take them. These are very suitable for you young girls. If ever you want any jewelry,e to me. I have plenty here!
She was speaking the truth. Since Family Zhao was a top notch jeweller family of A City, there were numerous treasures in their storage.
Shangguan Ning suddenly felt that the thing in her hands felt heavy. These better not be the top-notch jewelry of Family Zhao, otherwise these would way too precious as greeting presents.
She had no idea what Jing Yichen had given to the olddy. Hopefully the gift was equally precious.
Chapter 290 - Heir of Family Zhao’s Jewelry
Chapter 290: Heir of Family Zhaos Jewelry
Zhao Fu exchanged a few words with Shangguan Ning and then turned to Mu Qing. She smiled affably, So you are old Mu Wenshengs grandson, right? He is not so good looking, but you are indeed handsome!
The Old Lady knew everything about Mu Qing and Zhao Anan, including their past and the present situation.
When Mu Qing was together with 17-year-old Zhao Anan secretly, the Old Lady had already done a thorough research of him, although they had never met.
Zhao Anan was her precious granddaughter and she had been extremely furious when Anan got pregnant at the age of 17. She had wanted to kill Mu Qing!
But because of that pregnancy, her cancer was detected at an early stage. Otherwise Zhao Anan would have died ages ago.
Besides, Zhao Fu understood that Mu Qing had been devoted to Zhao Anan and that it had been Zhao Anan who kept pushing him away. But he was persistent and never gave up, despite the fact that Zhao Anan was sick.
That was a very rare thing.
Therefore, Zhao Fu was no longer angry by the matters of the past. She felt that Mu Qing was quite pleasing to the eye!
She and her daughter, Zhao Zhao had alreadye to the decision that no matter whether or not Zhao Anan agreed, they were definitely going to marry her to Family Mu as long as Mu Qing agreed.
If Zhao Anan married to Family Mu, she would have a higher possibility of surviving. It was the selfish idea of her grandmother.
Mu Qing had no idea that the Old Lady knew everything about his background. He stepped up and handed over the present which he had brought with him.
Smiling brightly, he said, Happy Birthday, Grandmother! Wish you are always fit and healthy.This is a therapeutic medical ball which my grandpa makes himself. I hope that you still have sharp ears and bright eyes at the age of 100, staying as fit as you were decades ago!
Family Mu was the only family in A City who gave medicines or medical equipments as birthday presents to the seniors.
Zhao Fu was delighted after hearing what he said.
She was aware of how proficient Mu Wensheng was. She also knew that he had retired from the business ages ago so the products which he made would be precious.
She took it and held it in her hands for a moment. The wrinkles on her face deepened because of the smile on her face.
Butler, keep it somewhere dry and sheltered. No exposure to sunlight.
That was a different attitude that she showedpared to when Shangguan Ning had given her the present. It seemed that Mu Qing was indeed good at pleasing the Old Lady.
Even Zhao Anan saw him in a new light. She kept looking at him as if she didnt know who he was.
Family Zhao was aristocratic and had many properties. The olddy rarely paid attention to ordinary things, but precious medicine that was good for health was exactly what she craved. Everyone wanted to live a few years longer.
The Butler took it away from her hands.
The Old Lady smiled brightly. Good boy, so polite and handsome too! I like you more and more. You need toe and visit me often.
She gave Mu Qing a present and said happily, I am giving you this greeting present. We have nothing at home except for precious treasures.
Mu Qing thanked the Old Lady and epted it graciously.
Zhao Anan also gave her presents to the Old Lady C she had got the birthday present ready.
It was bustling in the vi and Zhao Fu felt extremely happy.
She usually lived alone and no one apart from the servants, Zhao Zhao and Zhao Anan stayed there.
But Zhao Anan didnt like staying at home. She was always out somewhere for fun whilst Zhao Zhao had little time to keep herpany.
When she was surrounded by so many people, especially her rarely-seen grandson, she was delighted. She even gave a separate present to Jing Yichen and chitchatted with him for a long time.
It was time for the banquet.
Zhao Fu liked it when family members were around, but didnt like to be disturbed by outsiders. So she often celebrated her birthdays at home except when she ran into the year of an integral number.
She had already stopped attending banquets with business people after she got old. What she enjoyed most was to have juniors surrounding around her to converse with her.
Family Zhao always talked at the dinner table. It was a vigorous conversation and both the hosts and the guests were having a great time.
After the meal, the Old Lady wanted to talk separately with Mu Qing while Zhao Zhao took Jing Yichen away for a chat.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan stayed back and looked at each other.
Anan, why do I feel that we are being totally ignored?
Yeah, it wasnt like this before. Why do the family change their attitudes when cousin and scumbag Mu are here? Anyway, next time, I will not invite them here. You alone will be enough, you can be ignored, anyways.
Shangguan Ning pulled Zhao Anans newly rounded cheeks and red. Are you consoling me or demeaning me?
Zhao Anan pinched her back instantly, I am demeaning you, of course!
Then they started to run around the living room with hands on each others face.
Zhao Anan, are you trying to pinch me to death? Let go of me, or I will bite!
You let go of me first. You started it so you must finish it first. My face must have be bloated because of you.
No, you first, then I will follow!
I have been tricked by you too many times. I would be a pig if ever trusted you again. Let go of me.
Zhao Anan, you are a pig anyways!
You dare to curse me, Shangguan Ning? I will stick to the end and make you a pig head so that even my cousin wouldnt recognize you. Haha!
I wont let go if you dont, I will pinch you....
When Jing Yichen and Mu Qing came back to the living room, this was the sight that greeted them.
Shangguan Nings cheeks were still swollen when she left Family Zhaos residence with Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen couldnt help but shake his head. Why were you ying this childish game when you are a grownup? Your face has swelled up. No more such games with Anan, she doesnt know how to control her force.
Shangguan Ning smiled as she put the ice bag upon the face. Haha, it is fine! I pinched her back too. Her cheeks must have gotten redder than mine. What about you, what did you and Aunt talk about?
Jing Yichen drove and said calmly, Aunt said that both she and grandmother have agreed that I will be the heir of Family Zhaos Jewelry.
Shangguan Ning thought about it for a moment and then she realised it to be logical.
Who else would be more suitable than Jing Yichen?
Zhao Anan didnt know anything about business, and even if she did, Zhao Zhao would not ask her to deal with the affairs. Jing Yichen was the best candidate for the management of the business.
Chapter 291 - Jing Yichen’s Fury
Chapter 291: Jing Yichens Fury
Family Zhaos Jewelry originally belongs to my mother and aunt. As a result, Anan and I each, share half of the business. I will keep hers well for her sake and she can always have it whenever she wants.
Shangguan Ning understood what he meant. She smiled and said, I wont even blink if you gave the entire Family Zhaos Jewelry to her, as long as she can live well. I feel that maybe Anan would live much longer than us, because the medical industry is so advanced nowadays and Family Mu have so many secret materials. Just as she said, if she can marry into Family Mu, she will be able to live until she is 99!
Jing Yichen knew that his wife never paid too much attention to money. She was a woman even more generous than him.
He felt his heart filled with warmth. I hope that you both can still pinch each others cheeks and run around when you are 99 years old.
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter when she thought of the scene where they were old and ying around. We might not even be able to run around by that time. Maybe our teeth will all be gone because of the old age as well.
Ah, will I look very ugly if all my teeth are gone? Will I get lots of wrinkles and grey hair? No, no, take me to a beauty salon, I want to undergo some therapy.
Jing Yichenughed. Women always cared so much about their appearance, and the graceful Shangguan Ning was no exception.
But what she didnt know was that no matter what she looked like, she was always the most beautiful princess in his heart and the woman he loved more than everybody else.
Ageing was happening every second and every minute. He didnt care about it. It was great if he could age with the woman he loved.
He looked at her tender skin and asked, Do you think that even I should also do some therapy? I am 34 and you are 27. If a person younger to me is undergoing it, will I be an ugly, bald man if I dont do it now?
Shangguan Ning turned her head and looked at the man next to her.
He was dressed in a white shirt, and a pair of ck pants. He had a perfectly proportionate body shape, tall and erect. Even the simplest outfit made him look elegant. His face was beautifully contoured and had exquisite features. He talked in a low and sexy voice, making it impossible for people to move their eyes away from him.
You are the best-looking man I have ever seen! She said as she leaned forward and kissed him on the cheek.
He was so good-looking that she never got tired of looking at him.
Jing Yichen felt very happy after being kissed. With one hand on the steering wheel and the other on his cheek. One more kiss, I like it when you kiss me.
Shangguan Ning hadnt felt embarrassed until he said so. Her white cheeks reddened instantly. But seeing Jing Yichens handsome face, she couldnt resist being fascinated so, she leaned forward and kissed him again.
Jing Yichen felt wonderful.
He turned his head and pinched her exquisite chin. Then he kissed her plump lips, nipped them and whispered, Baby, are you a little demon who wants me to pay you the debt?
Shangguan Ning got flustered by his kiss. Her lip hurt slightly, and felt as if currents were flowing in her body.
Her eyes twinkled as she said shyly, Drive the car, dont look at me...
But I cant...
It was getting warmer in the car. Jing Yichen pulled the car to the road side.
He felt that he had be less and less resistant towards Shangguan Ning.
As soon as she stimted him even a little, he lost his control.
He had an erection already and wanted to sweep her into his arms and body.
Shangguan Ning knew him well. She understood exactly what he wanted to do. She said anxiously with a red face, No, not here, lets go home... home...
The day was getting slightly dark and there were only a few people on the road. But Shangguan Ning really couldnt imagine them doing it outside home.
Jing Yichen had to calm down his body seeing that she was so unwilling to ept him at the moment. He kissed her red lips fiercely and started the car.
If she didnt like the environment, then she would not feel nice. He didnt want his beloved woman to feel ufortable when they were doing the most intimate thing.
But before Jing Yichen could start driving back, his phone rang.
He saw that it was from Tiger.
Jing Yichen frowned slightly.
Tiger usually texted him or reported to him face-to-face. He rarely made a call, unless it was something urgent and difficult to deal with. There were only a few things Tiger couldnt handle.
Jing Yichen picked up the phone and Tigers anxious voice came through. Master, you need to go back to Family Jing now!
What is wrong?
What Shangguan Ning saw was that Jing Yichen was frowning and expression getting colder. Then ice entered his eyes.
She could hear that it was from Tiger who urged Jing Yichen to go home. But she couldnt catch the rest of it.
Shangguan Ning asked in concern after Jing Yichen hung up the phone. What is wrong, Yichen? What has happened at home?
Jing Yichen controlled his fury and said gently, It is alright, dont worry, nothing serious. I will take you home first. Wait for me there. I wille back to youter.
He phrased that in a very rxing way, but Shangguan Ning got increasingly confused.
Jing Yichen was a man well in control. He treated others coldly but he never got furious so easily. He was a man of strong self control but he was apparently very angry at this moment.
Shangguan Ning looked at him but didnt ask him anything more. Okay, go but remember to call me if you need anything.
Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning home before going off from Landscape Compound.
Standing beside the french window on the 27th floor, she watched the silver Aston Martin driving out of her sight. She sighed and turned around to go and change.
She removed the red dress and wore a set of white sportswear and sneakers. Then she grabbed the car keys and walked out of the door.
She didnt know what had happened at Family Jing that annoyed Jing Yichen so much. But it might have been because of Jing Yirans marriage.
The four candidates had been chosen by Jing Yichen, and it was possible that Jing Yiran wanted to provoke Jing Yichen on this aspect. After all, he was not a man who could be controlled by anyone so easily.
Chapter 292 - Jing Yichen’s Child? (Part One)
Chapter 292: Jing Yichens Child? (Part One)
Shangguan Ning was afraid that Jing Yichen would have another argument with Jing Zhongxiu likest time or beat Jing Yiran to death. So after he left, she followed him.
If he couldnt take her to Family Jing, she could go there herself. She knew the way.
Shangguan Ning didnt drive fast. She was worried that Jing Yichen would discover her and send her back home. But what she didnt know was that he had been so furious that he drove really fast and was far away from where she was.
The truth was far beyond what Shangguan Ning had imagined. But even if she knew what had happened, she would have still gone to Family Jing.
...
In the middle of a hill that was beautiful and well guarded in A City, there was a luxurious yet low-key vi of Family Jing. Inside the vi, a girl with shoulder length hair and beautiful face, was sitting.
She was dressed in the newest version of Chanels rose colored dress, along with a pair of silver-white Prada high heels. She wore a Dior perfume, had a nice voice and looked very elegant. She behaved in such a graceful way that she resembled Shangguan Ning in temperament slightly.
But the Old Lady Mo Lan seated opposite the long hair beauty didnt show any fondness towards her.
She was frowning while seated on the coffee colored leather sofa.
An air of depression permeated across the room. Mo Lan stared at the woman coldly and didnt break the deadly silence in the living room until muchter.
Miss Tang, you said that you are pregnant with my grandsons child?
She looked at the woman with her t stomach and high-heels, sneering inside her heart.
She had been living for more than 70 years, and could tell if a woman was pregnant. Another shameless woman hade to the door trying to pull a fraud.
Was Family Jing really a sucker for these schemes in other peoples eyes?
Or was it because after Zhang Rong had seeded, every woman started to follow that method to find a position in Family Jing.
Mo Lan knew this woman in front of her, but had no warmth towards her.
It was because this woman who came to the door, was not asking for Jing Yiran who was a famous yboy, but for Jing Yichen who had no scandals attached to his name, ever.
Jing Yichen had refused to be at home for ten years because of her. He kept looking for her everywhere and if it had not been Zhao Fu who worked with her to find him, he would never havee home at all.
Although she had saved her grandsons life, yet Mo Lan didnt feel grateful at all!
Had she not flirted with men, her grandson would not have fallen into a helpless situation and almost lost his life.
Family Jing didnt owe her anything.
Tang Yun didnt care much about the Old Ladys cold attitude, because when Jing Yichen arrived, he was definitely going to defend her, protect her and offer her the best things.
A smile hovered upon her wlessly exquisite face as she said in a friendly manner, Grandma, I am two-month pregnant with Brother Yichens child and I think that it must be a boy. Arent you happy that you will have great-grandson soon?
Mo Lan threw a cold look at Tang Yun. She looked so severe that the smile on Tang Yuns face wobbled.
The freshly made Blue Mountain coffee permeated the entire room. Mo Lan lifted the mug and took a sip. Then she put down the mug upon the dark marble table decisively.
She wiped the corner of her lips with a white handkerchief, and said in a calm manner, Miss Tang, you can fool around but you mustnt talk like a fool here. Shangguan Ning, my granddaughter-inw is not pregnant yet and my younger grandson is not even married till now. How could I get a grandson? Also, you are not my family, so dont call me grandma, in case people think that you are trying to suck me up. Then you will have no face left!
Tang Yuns smile stiffened. She was about to speak when Mo Lan waved her hand and asked her not to say anything more. It doesnt matter if you are really pregnant and if so, with whosoever baby. What matters is that Family Jing doesnt like you and if you want to threaten us with the so-called life saving thing, then you are simply doing things in vain. My grandson never owed you anything and if you really want to take anything into ount, then it should be you who owes Family Jing. My grandsons life and time are of great value. Lets see, give us 10 billion yuan of the interests first aspensation and then we shall talk about anything else.
Tang Yuns face turned white and her smile disappeared. With tightly clenched fingers, she felt anger rising up inside her.
She looked elegant, gentle and graceful, but these were all on the surface. She was a hot-tempered and spoilt woman. She would have stopped pretending had she not wanted to form a good impression on the Old Lady.
She cursed her inside her heart CYou damn old woman. After I marry into Family Jing, you will be the first one to be tossed on the street. You will be a beggar who is stomped upon and demeaned!
She had tried so hard to escape from the USA not to be cursed by an old woman.
She was going to get Jing Yichen and the endless properties of Family Jing. She was going to be the most glorifieddy of Family Jing.
She was ready this time. She was no longer unprepared to be sent away by Jing Yichen like thest time.
She had many helpers!
But it was quite weird. This old woman had been quite friendly to her ten years ago, when she tagged along and visited Family Jing. She had been friendly to her each time that she was here and treated her with good food and drinks. Why was she so different now?
Also, didnt this old woman regard children as something important? Jing Yiran would not have been born but for her. Then why did she have no smile on the face when she heard about her being pregnant?
She had thought that it would be easy to bribe this old woman, but it turned out to be tough shit. She talked in such an unfriendly way and had a terrible expression on her. She even asked her for money.
Tang Yun felt pain inside her chest out of anger.
What she didnt know was that Mo Lan was not like before anymore.
She had once made a simr mistake because of which she almost lost her family. She had learnt her lesson and refused to take in any woman who was pregnant with Family Jings children, otherwise chaos would arise.
She couldnt do this to her granddaughter-inw.
She was scared and furious!
Because what was happening in front of her face was eerily simr to the scene thirty years ago. She was afraid that she would cause the death of another innocent life just because she wanted to keep a new life. She was very annoyed with herself that she had been so consumed back then with her stupid thoughts that everyone else started to imitate what Zhang Rong did!
Chapter 293 - Jing Yichen’s Child? (Part Two)
Chapter 293: Jing Yichens Child? (Part Two)
Lady! Tang Yun got so angry by Mo Lans words that she trembled. She stopped pretending and dropped the act of calling her grandma.
Instead, she said in a scathing tone, Brother Yichen has always been deeply in love with me. He promised to marry me and you cant deny his and my baby right now. Family Jing have a great deal of money. Then why you are asking me, a weak and helpless girl, for money? Have some care for your position in the family instead of demeaning yourself like this. Why are you picking on a young girl like me at your age?
I dont need an outsider to judge our Family Jing. Now, get out of the house. You are not allowed to step into the house ever again!
Mo Lan got furious instantly. She never put on an arrogant air when she dealt with her children and she had been devoted to her two grandsons without anyints. But for outsiders, she was the noble olddy of Family Jing and everyone, including those from wealthy families in A City, respected her fully. Even the mayor of A City would bow down and addressed her as Lady!
Who was this ill-mannered girl that dared to throw temper at her or give her a lecture?
She must have be tired of living any more!
The Butler, who was waiting outside the living room, walked in after hearing that the olddy was furious and intended to drive the woman off.
Butler knew Tang Yun, everyone in Family Jing knew her, because she was the woman whom Jing Yichen had been searching for, for the past ten years.
The Butler had got really anxious when she came to the door, iming that she was pregnant. So he had called Tiger to ask Master to hurry here when olddy was not paying attention.
Butler had no idea what olddy would do. He was afraid that the olddy may ask Tang Yun and her child to stay just to bring more children to Family Jing like what she did 30 years ago.
Hearing that the olddy was driving away the woman, he eventually got assured and said to Tang Yun calmly, Miss Tang, please leave. It is getting dark and Family Jing have no tradition of letting anyone stay overnight.
But Tang Yun stayed seated on the sofa without moving. It was as if she had not heard what the Butler said.
Honestly, she had made a lot of effort to reach Family Jing and she was not leaving until she met Jing Yichen. She wasnt going to leave before her purpose was realized.
She tucked her hair behind her ear as she sighed. If Brother Yichen got to know how you are treating me, he would definitely get angry and the consequences would be very serious for you.
I am not going anywhere. I will wait for him here. He will definitelye and meet me here. Last time, he had begged me toe home and spoils me as a princess. I am given everything I ask for and you can call Brother Yichen and confirm that with him.
Butler, get her out now. Family Jing is not a ce for a hooligan to throw her tantrums. You dont need to tell Chen that this woman was here.
Mo Lan had no idea how Jing Yichen treated Tang Yun or if Jing Yichen and Tang Yun were still involved with each other. She didnt even care if Tang Yun was really pregnant with Jing Yichens child. What she wanted was to drive Tang Yun out of Family Jing, because she didnt want Jing Yichen to make the same mistake as Jing Zhongxiu did. Also, she didnt expect Jing Yichen to have lingering feelings towards Tang Yun. Therefore, he had turned Tang Yun down instantly, without even sparing any affection.
The family was currently in upheaval. Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran were fighting with each other as if they were on a fierce battlefield. Jing Zhongxiu had gotten angry many times because of their fight and she didnt want an outsider like Tang Yun to interfere at this moment.
In her opinion, Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning were a cute couple and Shangguan Ning had strong affection towards her grandson. The couple had never quarreled with one another after they got married and were in a stable rtionship, full of happiness and peace. She liked Shangguan Ning as her granddaughter-inw, because she had changed her grandson and made him a more approachable person. Even the rtionship between his father and him had gotten better since then.
Her husband had also mentioned many times that their granddaughter was a woman who had brought happiness and excellent destiny to the family. It was a great match for both of them as they would get better and better in each otherspany.
Mo Lan hated Tang Yun for wasting ten years of her grandsons life and for making her grandson almost lose his life. She was worried that her grandsons life would be ruined because of this woman.
Tang Yun was wearing such high heels, heavy makeup as well as a cloyingly strong perfume. She was dressed skimpily. She didnt look like a pregnant woman at all!
Butler knew exactly what the olddy was thinking.
He had understood that the olddy didnt want to make the same mistake as before, and wanted to drive the woman out of the house.
He picked up the walkie-talkie and asked someone to get Tang Yun out.
But before he could finish the instructions, azy but sinister voice came from the door.
Hang on!
The Butler looked up to see Jing Yiran, who was looking pale yet handsome, walking inside the room.
Second Master! The Butler addressed him courteously and retreated. He was just a Butler and couldnt possibly fight against Second Master. Jing Yichen was on the way and would be here soon. Tang Yun was definitely going to be driven off by him.
Mo Lan sat up from the sofa suddenly at the sight of him and then walked to his side to support him. She said worriedly, Why are you out of the bed, Ran? It has just been two days and you have not healed yet. Doctor Jian says that you mustnt walk around. Go back and rest!
Jing Yiran showed his charming smile as he said, Grandma, I am fine. I just came to see who the guest is. Unexpectedly, it is an old friend.
What old friend? Just a stupid mannerless girl! I am driving her away. it has nothing to do with you. You should go back and rest, or the wound will get worse.
Mo Lan didnt want Jing Yiran to interfere in this matter. He hade out because of Tang Yun, otherwise he would not have gotten off the bed after being so badly injured.
Tang Yun got up and looked at Jing Yiran across the room and said happily, Second Master, greetings! How are you? Why are you injured? Why are you so careless?
Jing Yiran squinted and then said nonchntly, Oh, I got injured not because I was not careful, but because my brother wanted to kill me and I couldnt run away from that. Well, I have been his punching bag since I was little, and it is a normal thing that I am injured. I am alive till date because my grandma has been defending me.
He smirked inside his heart as he saw her talking in a pretentious way. She resembled Shangguan Ning in this way CHa, Jing Yichen, are you not selecting a fiance for me?
So as a repayment, I have brought your old me back and hopefully, this present will be a huge surprise for you!
Chapter 294 - Jing Yichen’s Child? (Part Three)
Chapter 294: Jing Yichens Child? (Part Three)
Tang Yun expressed fake surprise as she pursed her lips. Ah, could it have been Brother Yichen who punched you? He must have been instigated by some foxydy to do so. When hees here, I will tell him to stay away from that foxydy and not to punch his own brother any more. After all, two brothers ought to stay in perfect harmony.
Smile yed on Jing Yirans pale face. He said calmly, Then I should thank you very much. My brother listens to you!
Seeing her grandson getting on well with Tang Yun, Mo Lan got slightly annoyed.
Ran, get back to the bed and no wandering around! Butler, get someone to take Second Master back to bed and get this woman out of my sight.
The Butler had just answered yes when Jing Yiran interrupted her.
Grandma, that is not how we at Family Jing treat guests. She came all the way from the USA just to meet my brother. Wont it be cruel of us not to allow their meeting?
Although Mo Lan cared much about her grandson, yet she was not dumb. Hearing what he said, she frowned. How did you know that she came from the USA? Even I didnt know about that!
Oh, grandma, you think so little of me. My inner organs might be injured, but my brain functions perfectly! Jing Yiran removed Mo Lans hands from him, walked slowly to the sofa and then sat down carefully. The pain in his chest ached terribly and cold sweat covered him. He couldnt stand on his feet any more, but needed to tolerate the pain in case Mo Lan noticed it.
I not only understand that Miss Tang travelled all the way from the USA, I am also aware that she is deeply devoted to my brother. Now she even has his child in the belly. Thats what real love is about. Shangguan Ning is not pregnant but Miss Tang is pregnant, so apparently, my brother adores Miss Tang more. Please dont separate them and approve their rtionship so that you may look like an affable senior!
Mo Lan found what he said, increasingly weird. Jing Yiran had been lying in the sickbed during these past few days and had not stepped out of the vi. Tang Yun hadnt arrived until this evening. How could Jing Yiran know so much about her?
Ran, how did you know about that? Mo Lan sounded serious. Jing Yiran had been brought up under her personal care. She didnt expect that this grandson of hers would have done anything that disappointed her.
Jing Yiran panted, suppressing the blood that threatened to spill out of his chest.
He refused to answer Mo Lans question. Instead, he spoke through clenched teeth, Grandma, isnt that true that you like children a lot? Why are you driving out your great-grandson without hesitation this time whilst you tried to keep the pregnant woman who came to the doorst time? My brothers child cant be kept, but mine can? Are you favoring me or my brother?
Mo Lan was startled by what he asked. She snapped, You are different from your brother.
Jing Yiran cut in. Why different? Just because he is the heir of the family? Just because he was born noble and I am a bastard?
Mo Lans face changed and she said angrily, Shut your nonsense! You are not a bastard, you are the Second Master of Family Jing. You are different from your brother, because he is married but you are not. He is a man with family and I wouldnt allow a woman with unclear background to ruin the stable life he has tried so hard to get. What is more, when that woman came to the door, it was your mother who appointed her as the daughter-inw and asked her to keep the child. You know very well why she wanted to have a grandchild so fast.
That was true. It had been Zhang Rong who wanted to keep the child, because as long as Jing Yiran had a child, Family Jing would give him multiple properties. She wanted to get the inheritance that belonged to Jing Yichen through a child.
I didnt object to it for your sake. If you have a child, I will also turn to your father to ask for more inheritance. And you dare to interrogate me? Ran, I have fed you for 30 years and this is how you repay me?
Mo Lan got so angry that she trembled. She was deeply upset.
She had been caring for Jing Yiran for so long and had nned to get whatever she could from Jing Yichen for him. But now, he wasining to her for what she was doing. Did she breed an ungrateful person?
Seeing Mo Lan angry, Jing Yiran understood that he had gone overboard. He smiled and said, Grandma, you have misunderstood me. I am not interrogating you, because I feel that you always favor me. Dont get angry. If I have said something wrong, punish me as you wish.
Jing Yiran had been good at sucking up Mo Lan right from the time that he was able to talk. So he didnt have any difficulty ining up with such answers.
Mo Lan got slightly pacified but her heart still ached terribly.
She felt that she had made a huge mistake, one that could not be reversed.
Standing in the living room, she calmed down gradually and coldly said, I am trying to get this woman thrown out, not because I suspect that she is pregnant. Even if she is, the child wont be Chens. Thats not Chens child, because he is fully devoted to Ning and he will never fool around with other women.
Oh, so what grandma means is that I am a person who fools around. You can believe that the woman who came to the door had my child but you wont believe that this child is my brothers!
Mo Lan frowned and then looked at this grandson whom she had brought up. She felt that he was not a simple person.
If I had believed that, then I would not have spent so much effort to take the woman for a DNA test. As for whether or not you are the person who fools around, I dont think that I need to exin anything there. You have been involved with too many women and many of them havee to the door forpensation. Chen has never got any woman like this, and this woman must have some other purpose. I may be old but I know everything. I was not a simple person when I was young!
Jing Yiran suddenlyughed after hearing what she said. Smile hovered over his face and he looked sinister. Haha, grandma, you arepletely mistaken. This is definitely my brothers child and my brother also has feelings towards Miss Tang. You can ask him if you dont believe me.
The moment he stopped talking, a cold emotionless voice came from the door.
No need to ask. Anyone with eyes would know that I have no feelings for Miss Tang.
Chapter 295 - Fury (Part One)
Chapter 295: Fury (Part One)
Jing Yichen strode into the living room. His eyes were like chips of ice, cold and distant. The warmth inside the living room seemed to have gone away because of his appearance.
He stared at Jing Yiran and casually said, You are blind!
Jing Yiran stiffened. But soon he rxed and said, And you are not? You would have found her ages ago rather than taking ten years to do so.
Jing Yichen ignored him and then turned towards Tang Yun.
Tang Yun looked delighted to see him. But he was wearing such a cold and angry expression that she felt her heart tremble.
Still, she went up to him and said in a soft voice, Brother Yichen, finally you are here! I missed you so much.
Who brought you back? Jing Yichen asked in a low voice. The voice was musical but the tone overbearing. Tang Yun couldnt stop herself from feeling worried.
Tang Yun didnt dare meet his eyes and said, I... I missed you. Didnt you say that you will give me whatever you want? I dont want to stay abroad so I returned. The moment I did I came...
Get out now!
Before Tang Yun was able to finish her words, she was interrupted by Jing Yichen. She got a bit startled so she asked in confusion, What?
Go back to the USA and I will not me you for what happened. Jing Yichen said through clenched teeth. It seemed that he was almost at the edge of breaking into uncontroble rage. You better follow what I tell you to, or you will have to face the consequences.
Tang Yun finally came to herself. Tears filled up her beautiful eyes as she looked up stubbornly and said, I am not going back to the USA. I dont like it there, I like here! Give this vi to me.
Jing Yiran, who was watching this show from the side, looked up in disbelief at Tang Yun.
She was really bold to demand the vi of Family Jing. It was too funny. But he liked what Tang Yun had proposed!
Mo Lan, standing next to her looked at Tang Yun as if she were a maniac. She sneered, So you are indeed a greedy woman who wants to take the properties of Family Jing. You have no idea of who we are!
Jing Yichen turned to Tang Yun and replied in a cold voice, This is not my vi and even if it was, I would not give it to you. The money I have given to you is enough for you for the rest of your life. I will try my best to satisfy whatever you want. But you must not hit my bottom line.
Tang Yun came to him and peered at his handsome face. She couldnt hide the love inside her eyes.
Her voice turned soft and she spoke as if she had been wronged, Brother Yichen, dont you love me any more? Have you forgotten how we spent time together in the past? Have you forgotten the pain we went through? Have you forgotten that I saved your life? How can you drive me away?
Jing Yichens face turned pale. He never wanted to relive the memory but Tang Yun kept revealing the history without caring about what he thought.
Something was crumbling inside his chest. He wanted to vomit.
His knuckles whitened, indicating that he was using his strong willpower to restrain himself.
He tried to tolerate the sickness inside his heart as said in a hoarse voice, You would have died hundreds of times but for the fact that you saved me once. I searched for you for ten years, because you had risked your own life to save me and because you brought a spot of brightness to my life at that time. But what you may not know is that I loathe you now. You are vicious and sinister, and you are much more ruthless than the most vicious person in the entire world!
She was vicious but she was pathetic as well. She was full of evil ns but she could sacrifice everything as well.
Jing Yichen knew her very well. He didnt like vicious women like Tang Yun. He defended her only because she had chosen to sacrifice herself for his life.
That was the first time for him to meet someone who would sacrifice herself just to protect him.
He had been deeply shocked, and that feeling had touched his heart. But it had nothing to do with love.
At this moment, he was extremely annoyed and disgusted by Tang Yun, so much so that he was trying hard to control his urge to not kill her.
Tang Yun stiffened. She felt as if she had fallen into an icy pool.
She wobbled and said in disbelief, What... what did you say? You... you hate me?
Jing Yichen closed his eyes, trying to get a grip on his anger.
He kept telling himself that this woman had saved his life and that he mustnt hurt her!
Tang Yun noticed the coldness in Jing Yichens eyes.
Tears kepting out of her eyes as she said, Why are you looking at me like this? Are you... nning to kill me? I saved your life and you want to kill me? Howe you are so ruthless?
She wiped off the tears and spoke through clenched teeth, Alright then, kill me if you want to. I should have died ten years ago. I have been living alone for the past many years. I dont want to live without you. If I die, I will die in your arms.
Tang Yun tried to throw herself into his arms.
Jing Yichen dodged her effortlessly and said, If you want to die, I wont stop you but dont die here in my home. Get out and do what you want.
He had never said anything cruel to Tang Yun ever before, but today, he said everything horrible.
I am not leaving! Tang Yun had failed to catch him. Then she suddenly realized that she was pregnant and that was something she hadnt used yet.
Brother Yichen, I am pregnant with your child. You cant drive me away.
Yichen looked up at her and said, Shut up and get out!
His eyes had be bloodshot and angry veins popped out on his forehead.
Tang Yun got startled and took a step backwards.
Hello, Sister, why are you standing outside the door? Come and sit, it is very entertaining in here! Jing Yirans mocking voice broke through the temporary silence in the living room.
Chapter 296 - Fury (Part Two)
Chapter 296: Fury (Part Two)
Jing Yichen stiffened after hearing what Jing Yiran said.
He turned his head slowly in dread, only to see Shangguan Ning standing at the door. Her face was pale and her eyes held contempt.
When Jing Yichen saw her, his heart calmed down a bit. He asked softly, What are you doing here, Ning?
Oh yeah? I am not allowed here? Am I breaking anyws by being here?
She sounded very fierce, totally different from Shangguan Ning who tended to be gentle. Apparently, she was annoyed. Jing Yichen strode to her and wanted to take hold of her hands. But she retreated.
It is not what you think, Ning, dont leave! Jing Yichen was a bit anxious. He somehow raised his voice and suddenly he was no longer calm, like his usual self.
Why would I leave?
Shangguan Ning looked up at him. She looked calm but sounded irritated. I wont leave before you give me a reasonable exnation. Some womanes to the door and says that she is pregnant with my mans child. Why would I leave before I know the truth or before I punch or kill someone?
She had never expected that she would need to confront such a scene when she came to Family Jing.
She was getting increasingly irritated.
No wonder she was not asked toe along. His so-called fiance was here yet again!
And this time, she came as a pregnant woman.
Shangguan Ning got so angry that her fingers trembled.
Ning... Jing Yichen came closer, hoping to catch hold of her hand. But Shangguan Ning pushed him off.
You stay away from me for the moment. Shangguan Ning walked into the spacious living room. Before I understand what it is going on, you are not allowed to touch me!
Jing Yichen followed her in and said softly, Alright, alright, I wont touch you, as long as you are not leaving.
Do I look so idiotic? What good will it do if I leave? Sparing the seat for someone else? Never! I wont kill myself like my mother or leave impulsively like my mother-inw when a mistresses to the door with a baby. I want to live on so that I can drive the shameless woman to death.
You are indeed powerful. Jing Yiran told me that you have a girl soulmate and I didnt believe him. But it turns out to be totally true. You follow her from home to abroad and then abroad to home, and now she has a baby?
Jing Yichen was palpitating slightly. Sweat beads had formed on his forehead as he exined anxiously, It is not my child. She is not my girl soulmate. I havent visited the USA during the past few months.
Shangguan Ning threw him a cold look at hi,. She was feeling immensely sad. Shut up! If that is not your baby, why is she here? The reason she is here is because you havent handled your rtionship well enough. She thinks that she can turn to you when she gets pregnant. She is shameless but what about you? She saved your life but must you spend your entire life upon her?
She had somehow lost rationality and apparently, she was venting her anger on him. Jing Yichen smiled bitterly.
It was reasonable that she was angry and could throw temper at him as she wished. As long as she didnt leave from here. It was his fault and he was the cause.
He was so scared that she would leave him or do something stupid impulsively. He couldnt even begin to think of the consequences.
He had been worried that Shangguan Ning would be angry, and sad, thats why he hadnt asked her to tag along. If he had known that she woulde anyway, he would have brought her along with. In that way, he would at least be able to exin the entire thing to his wife well ahead of time.
Misunderstood and scolded by Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen was not at all angry. He just looked at her in silence, epting her anger.
He knew pretty well that Shangguan Ning believed him. Otherwise she would not have wasted time scolding him here and would have left immediately, judging from her personality.
She was angry because Tang Yun had been badgering him all the time.
She had always been affected by Tang Yun so much that she even cut off her beloved long hair.
Seeing her eyes filled with tears, Jing Yichen felt his heart aching violently.
He wanted to take her into his arms and tell her that she was his only one.
He had no room for anyone else apart from her and he was not willing to touch anyone except for her.
But he couldnt do anything now and she didnt want him to get close to her.
It was the first time for them to have such an argument after they got married. It was the first time for her to throw temper at him.
Suppressing the emotions inside his heart, Jing Yichen said to the Butler calmly, Take Miss Tang away and anyone who lets her enter next time will disappear with her as well!
The Butler agreed but was stopped by Shangguan Ning.
Leaving? She has so much freedom? Shangguan Nings white face was full of abnormal redness. Apparently, it was caused by anger.
Seems that you favor her so much. Caring so much about her. Why are you making her leave as soon as I came here? Are you scared that I will eat her up?
This was totally unreasonable. He was not favoring Tang Yun. How did his words get interpreted like this?
She was too furious to understand his intentions properly.
Ning, dont!C you made my heart ache so much....
Shangguan Ning ignored him totally. After she taught her man a lesson, it was time for her to give the woman a lesson! Humph, if she ever dared toe back and make trouble, she would not have a chance to leave the room in one piece.
She turned and walked towards Tang Yun. Seeing her exquisite face, she said coldly, So you are pregnant?
Tang Yun watched the scene when Jing Yichen was scolded by Shangguan Ning. Jing Yichen was such a cold and arrogant man, but he had totally lost himself in front of her and was willing to be scolded by her as she wished.
She felt extremely jealous inside her heart. Hearing Shangguan Nings question, she said without hesitation. Of course, I am pregnant.
Oh, so who is the father?
Of course, it is my Brother Yichen.
Tang Yun had just finished her words when a loud pping sound arose in the living room.
Tang Yun screamed and took a few steps backwards. She almost fell to the ground but was saved by cing her hands upon the sofa.
She had been pped hard on face by Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning, you dare to p me!
Shangguan Ning approached her and coldly said, Someone cares about you, but I am sorry, I am not that person. Who is the father?
Brother Yich...
Before she finished the words, another loud pnded across her face. Shangguan Ning was being ruthless.
Chapter 297 - Stomping!
Chapter 297: Stomping!
Tang Yuns both cheeks swelled up. Two conspicuous handprints could be seen on her white cheeks.
I will kill you, Shangguan Ning! Tang Yun screamed and then threw herself at her.
Fearing that his wife would be hurt, Jing Yichen shouted instantly, Watch out, Ning!
Shangguan Ning was not scared. The moment Tang Yun lunged at her, she stretched her foot out and tripped Tang Yun on her high-heels.
As Tang Yun fell onto the ground, she felt her body shatter into pieces.
But Shangguan Ning didnt let her go.
She walked forward with a cold face, and stomped upon Tang Yuns tender fingers with her feet.
Tang Yun screamed in pain and wanted to pull out her hands but Shangguan Ning stomped even harder!
Shangguan Ning, you foxy woman. Get off now. My fingers are broken. You maniac!
Shangguan Ningughed and said sarcastically, You dare to provoke me in my own house. You should have been ready to get beaten. Did you think that I am a weak person? I ignored you before because you saved my husbands life once. I was grateful and tolerant towards you. But you add fuel to the me and dare to ruin my family. Why should I stay tolerant any more?
She was so angry that she had no filter and talked in an unusually filthy way.
Move your feet. It is hurting so much. Brother Yichen! Come and save me! This bitch is crazy. She wants to kill me! Lying on the floor, Tang Yun had one hand under Shangguan Nings foot and the other pping Shangguan Nings legs. But she didnt stop stomping.
Tang Yuns fingers pierced deeply into Shangguan Nings calves, bringing fierce pain.
But Shangguan Ning ignored the pain and said, Didnt you know that these two handsome masters of Family Jing are both infertile? You im to be pregnant with Jing Yichens child but you have no idea that he is taking medicine to cure infertility. I am with him every day and I am not pregnant. Howe you are pregnant with his child?
What she said shocked everyone present except for Jing Yichen.
Mo Lan was naturally the one most shocked.
She knew that Jing Yiran had some problems and had even taken him to Mu Qing for treatment.
But she never knew that her elder grandson had the same problem as well.
Chen, you... Mo Lan couldnt continue after saying one word.
She had thought that the reason why no pregnancy happened after half a year was because Shangguan Ning hadnt wanted to have a baby at this stage. Unexpectedly, however, it was because her grandson was infertile. What sin had Family Jingmitted to deserve all of this? Was Family Jing being punished because she tried hard to keep Jing Yiran?
Mo Lan almost fainted.
The Butler didnt normalise for sometime because of being shocked by what Shangguan Ning said. Thisdy was really frank enough to say anything. He turned around and saw Mo Lan wobbling, so he came up to her and helped her to the sofa.
Jing Yiran was also shocked! He couldnt touch women because of Mu Qing, but Jing Yichen was sick as well? Also, he didnt react after Shangguan Ning spilled the truth.
What was it going on? Was he really... incapable?
In that case, Tang Yun had just embarrassed herself by saying that she was pregnant.
Jing Yiran cursed thes woman hundreds of times, who hade up with this idea C what a dumb teammate! Turning everything into dust. Why didnt she check her facts before making such a huge mistake. What a waste that he made so much efforts to bring Tang Yun back from the USA!
But after he finished cursing, he felt somehow happy again.
So Jing Yichen was infertile?
Then will he still able to inherit the business of Family Jing and would Shangguan Ning still be with him throughout her entire life?
Would this powerful business empire of Jingsheng and Shangguan Ning belong to Jing Yiran in the end?
But Jing Yichens cold voice broke all of Jing Yirans beautiful fantasies.
Grandma, I do have some physical issues. But Mu Qing has checked me and I will be fine after the treatment.
Jing Yichen had not wanted to exin anything, but he was worried that the old Mo Lan would get so shocked that something bad may happen to her. So he gave a brief exnation.
Actually, he had finished the medicine and Mu Qing had checked him and told him that he would be fine.
But he couldnt say that out loud just now. Instead, he followed what Shangguan Ning said.
In this way, he denied the rtionship between him and Tang Yun.
Hearing what Jing Yichen said, Mo Lan let out a sigh of relief. But she threw an even more disgusted look at Tang Yun.
This woman had made her grandson drift away ten years ago. Ten yearster, she came back and wanted to ruin his happy family life. She was indeed a trouble.
Viciousness shed across Mo Lans eyes C she was troublesome and she must die.
Tang Yun, who was still pressed down by Shangguan Ning on the floor, screamed loudly after a few moments. Liar! Brother Yichen is fine, it is you who is infertile. You get out of here, and let me give birth to babies for him.
Shangguan Ning was already very ufortable to hear her calling him Brother Yichen, and when she said that she wanted to give birth to babies for Jing Yichen, she scowled.
She trampled on her hand with force and heard Tang Yun screaming as if she were a pig to be ughtered.
After Tang Yuns fingers were skinned and swelled up, Shangguan Ning removed her feet and turned to Jing Yichen. She said coldly, I am not sure what happened years back for you to think of her as someone important. There are many ways to thank people for what they have done, but getting badgered by that person doesnt have to be the method. She is your savior but not mine. Now she is my enemy and I will punch her whenever I meet her. I hope your heart wont ache for her.
Jing Yichen looked at her and said seriously, Ning, you know pretty well that I have nothing to do with her, please dont say those angry words, okay? It is my fault to not have handled the problem well and I am so sorry. I promise you that such a thing will never happen again in the future. It is an ident, one that has been arranged by someone. It all happened so suddenly. I will tell you about it in detail when I have sorted it out myself.
Shangguan Ning knew pretty well that there was nothing going on between Jing Yichen and Tang Yun. He had not even looked at Tang Yun from beginning to the end. But she just couldnt control herself for what happened today. She was too furious and upset.
She was about to go when he took hold of her and shouted in concern. Watch out, Ning!
Chapter 298 - Punishment for Selfishness
Chapter 298: Punishment for Selfishness
With a loud thud, Tang Yun, who was lunging at Shangguan Ning with a thin-heel shoe in her hand, was kicked onto the ground by Jing Yichen without any courtesy, making her fall hard.
Soon afterwards, blood gushed out of Tang Yuns lower body, reddening the beige floor.
Shangguan Ning turned around and understood what happened.
Seeing blood gushing out of Tang Yuns lower body, she understood that Tang Yun had just had a miscarriage because of Jing Yichens push.
She looked up at the man who was holding her tightly and staring at her nervously, rather than at Tang Yun.
Are you alright, Ning?
Seeing his eyes full of concern and nervousness, Shangguan Ning couldnt help but soften her heart. She said gently, I am fine. She just touched me but you pushed her away hard.
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief.
He had noticed that Tang Yuns shoes almost touched Shangguan Nings head. So without thinking, he kicked Tang Yun violently, forgettingpletely about her being his savior and pregnant.
Tang Yun fell upon the ground and her bones were almost smashed. She found herself breathing with difficulty.
Before she realized what had happened, she felt tremendous pain in her belly. Warm liquid flowed out and she realized that she had miscarried.
Ah!
A piercing scream echoed across the entire vi, making people get goosebumps.
Tang Yun couldnt stop crying. She said in tears, Ah, my child is gone! Get the child back. So many of you are bullying a weak woman and making me suffer so much. You are all going to hell. Oh my child, you are so unlucky. I am so sorry that I couldnt save you as a mother!
Mo Lan frowned after hearing what she said.
She hadnt expected that Tang Yun was really pregnant.
She didnt look like one, or in other words, she was not doing enough to take care of her unborn child like a mother.
She was wearing a pair of stillitoes, which most easily caused miscarriage.
Also, she was wearing makeup and heavy perfume that was harmful to the baby. Mo Lans instinct told her that Tang Yun had never nned to keep the child. It was very possible that she came to get miscarriage on purpose so that she could stick to Family Jing and Jing Yichen.
She had lived for more than seventy years and had seen everything and been through many conspiracies. All of these methods were so low in her eyes.
Mo Lan got up and turned her head. Chen, take Ning away from here and go back to your home. I will deal with the remaining problem here. Someone is trying to trick us. I will see who will be the victim in the end.
Jing Yichen didnt agree. Instead, he said politely, No need, I can handle this matter myself. It is not just her own doing. Someone is helping her from behind, otherwise she would not have been able to be out of America. Someone is making use of her to set me up. I need to interrogate her so as to understand who is behind her.
He had noticed that there was something wrong with Tang Yun. She was easily manipted. He must find out the truth.
Although Tang Yun had saved his life, but she was setting him up and he would not let go of the matter so easily.
He had many rivals and some of them were extremely powerful. Some would use ruthless methods at any cost. Tang Yun was already a vicious woman and once she was made use of, Shangguan Ning was going to be in danger along with the entire Family Jing.
She had already broken his bottom-line.
Lying on the cold floor, Tang Yun felt her body throb with immense pain, especially her stomach. But she soon realized that her cries had not created any bit of sympathy and concern in Jing Yichens heart.
He was so ruthless that he had ignored her miscarriage and was talking about finding the culprit behind the n.
She always knew that he was a ruthless man and just tolerated her and satisfied her unreasonable requirement. She assumed that he had allowed her to provoke him because she was different in Jing Yichens heart and that he cared for her.
But the reality in front of her ripped off her fantasy, showing the fact that she didnt mean a thing to him.
She couldnt believe it, she just couldnt!
She had saved his life and it belonged to her. He should die for her if ever needed.
Why did all turn out so different from the n?
Why didnt Jing Yichen feel even a touch of guilt when he caused her miscarriage?
Why was Shangguan Ning ying such an important role in his heart?
Why had Shangguan Ning not walked off and was still having a loving conversation with Jing Yichen?
All was wrong!
Even Jing Yiran who had promised to help her and participated in the entire n, was wrong. Hey on the sofazily and watched her experiencing the shameful situation. When he saw her fall in the patch of blood, he refused to say anything for her sake.
Furious and annoyed, Tang Yun passed out in pain.
She was taken to Family Mus Hospital. Jing Yichen didnt go, but asked Tiger to take someone along. He wanted to make sure that Tang Yun survived.
After they left Family Jing, Shangguan Nings anger had calmed down a bit.
Tang Yun had received the punishment. Although she hated that woman, yet miscarriage was still a painful and cruel thing for a woman.
Although she was less annoyed, she still refused to talk to Jing Yichen. She wanted to go home in her own car, refusing to share the same car with him.
Jing Yichen of course didnt want to let go of her. In spite of her struggling, he stuffed her into the passengers seat and then took the drivers seat and drove her home.
Shangguan Ning was silent on the way and that made Jing Yichen uneasy.
Therefore, he pulled the car after driving for a bit.
He pulled Shangguan Ning to his side and said softly, Still angry?
He sounded gentle, fearing that she would get further annoyed by him.
Shout and curse me as much as you want. I promise that I wont say a word. If you cant vent enough anger through words, you can punch me as well Jing Yichen said as he took hold of her hand and punched them against the chest.
Shangguan Ning was not annoyed. She was just feeling ufortable inside her heart. It would have been weird if she felt good after such a thing happened.
Tang Yun was a thorn inside her heart, not fatal but hurtful.
Jing Yichen was her everything and her heart was fully devoted to him. She loved him so deeply that there was no space to spare for anyone else.
How could she ever tolerate to lose him?
Just as he loved her, she loved him too, more than her own life!
Chapter 299 - I Love Only You
Chapter 299: I Love Only You
It was a feeling which had both parts, selflessness and selfishness . They were selfless enough to sacrifice each others life whilst selfish enough to take the other side into their hands so that no one else was allowed to interfere.
No one could understand how heartbroken she had felt when she heard about Tang Yun being pregnant with Jing Yichens child.
That heart-breaking feeling engulfed her within one second because of which she couldnt move at all.
Jing Yiran had asked her toe into the living room but she couldnt, not because she didnt want to, but because she didnt have any strength to move her legs at that time.
Because she was using all her strength to control her brain to stay calm and rational.
It was not until she recovered her senses when she realised that Tang Yun couldnt have possibly gotten pregnant with Jing Yichens child. It was then that she got the strength to forge ahead.
She wasnt sure how much strength she had used to curse standing in the living room C she was scared that she would be told that Tang Yuns child was really Jing Yichens.
She was osciting between belief and suspicion and her rationality kept copsing and returning. She lost her logical reasoning and said the worst things ever in the most vicious manner.
At this moment when Jing Yichen was sitting next to her and talking to her in a soothing manner, Shangguan Ning felt confused.
What happened sometime back seemed to be a nightmare so far-fetched, that she couldnt wrap her head around it. She still had him besides her, close to her.
Jing Yichen felt his heart stinging with pain when he saw her looking like a little lost girl.
He took Shangguan Ning into his arms and held her palm sized, pale face between hands and said, Ning, dont, dont scare me...
Please, Ning, dont scare me...
It is my fault, all is my fault, please dont be angry, alright? I promise that such a thing will never happen again...
Ning, please talk to me, please dont ignore me...
A tear leaked out of Shangguan Nings eyes andnded upon the back of his hand, piercing through his heart.
Soon, her tears started to drop like pearls off a thread.
Jing Yichen wiped off her tears, but soon more tears emerged. He just couldnt get them to stop.
His eyes couldnt take it anymore and he found himself at the edge of tears as well.
Ning, sorry, baby, I am sorry that I have upset you...
He said the words as he lowered his head to kiss her tears, the tip of her nose and her soft lips.
He held her body that was slightly trembling and gave his warmth to her, expressing his apology and guilt.
Ning, I love you very much, so much that no one else can rece you in my life ever and no one can interfere in our love. You are my only one. Every time that you are hurt or upset, my heart goes through tremendous pain. I married you because I wanted to give you happiness and joy. If you are not happy, there would be no meaning to my existence...
Shangguan Ning felt so bad that she burst into fresh tears at that moment.
Leaning in Jing Yichens arms and listening to his painful whispers, she felt really hurt as well.
She bit on Jing Yichens shoulder fiercely and could feel his blood on her tongue.
Jing Yichen stayed silent and still.
After venting her anger, she said tearfully in a hoarse voice, I hate every woman around you and I hate it when you defend her. I hate it that she saved your life and I didnt!
Hearing what she said, Jing Yichen felt relieved. He patted her slender back gently and pampered her softly. Okay, okay, you hate her. I have only you around me and there will be no one else. I will only defend you in the future, okay?
Shangguan Ning cried for a very long time in his arms and Jing Yichen patiently waited till all her angst flowed out with it.
Seeing her swollen eyes, he felt his heart clog up with pain.
He kissed her cheeks softly. Taking one of her cold hands in his warm one, he drove straight back to Landscape Compound.
After they came home, he carried Shangguan Ning into the bathroom. He soaked the towel with warm water and then wiped her face with it.
Seeing him being so sweet and caring, Shangguan Ning started to cry once again.
Who else would be taken care of and pampered so well by him? He only belonged to her!
What was strange was that she who almost never shed tears, wasnt being able to control her emotion in front of him at all.
Seeing her in tears again, Jing Yichen helped her wipe off the tears patiently. Silly girl, dont cry. Your tears are shattering my heart.
He put the towel away and then picked up Shangguan Ning. He carried her into the bedroom and ced her on the bed. Then heid down next to her and gathered her into his arms.
He lifted Shangguan Nings exquisite chin and whispered by her ears. Baby, you must believe me, I dont have anyone else in my heart apart from you. Dont you know that I cant touch anyone else except for you? I reject everyone who touches me and even end up vomiting. You are the only person whose touch brings mefort.
Nestled inside his arms, Shangguan Ning heard his warmth and love and her heart calmed down.
She was just about to ask him about the reason why he couldnt touch others when she heard him speaking softly, You know that it is impossible for me to fool around with any other women. Although Tang Yun saved my life, yet I have never thought about spending my life with her because of that. I am sure that someone has helped her with todays incident. I sent her to the USA where she was protected and guarded day and night.
That she appeared at Family Jing today unexpectedly, wouldnt have been possible for her alone. Even grandma noticed that something was wrong with her. She came because she wanted to get the miscarriage at the Family Jings residence.
So Tang Yun had nned all of this?
And she showed up just to ruin her rtionship with Jing Yichen?
How could she be cruel as not to care about her own child and use it as a bargaining chip!
Jing Yichen could feel Shangguan Nings emotions go up and down. He kissed her smooth forehead and said softly, You dont need to care about any of that. She has always been a vicious woman and I am well aware of that. She must have coborated with Jing Yiran except that Jing Yiran didnt help her in the end, because he knew that things didnt go ording to their n.
They had nned for everything except for where our heart goes.
Chapter 300 - Jing Yichen’s Past
Chapter 300: Jing Yichens Past
The following morning, Shangguan Ning went to work whilst Jing Yichen went to Family Mus Hospital.
Tang Yun had already woken up after the nights treatment and was resting there.
He didnt ask Shangguan Ning toe with him, because he wanted to bear the burden himself instead. He was the cause of the problem and he felt his heart ache again when he thought of how Shangguan Ning had gotten so furious the day before. He didnt want her to be upset because of Tang Yun again.
When Jing Yichen reached the hospital, he didnt go to visit Tang Yun first. He simply needed to know about her condition.
He truly detested Tang Yun, because she looked like an elegant woman at the first nce, but she was a dark-hearted woman. Her look of admiration towards him was full of too many other things, which made Jing Yichen very ufortable.
He had met any women but Tang Yun was the mostplicated one. Even a man like him was not able to see through what she was thinking.
Jing Yichen went to Mu Qings office.
Zhao Anan was also there. She got startled at the sight of Jing Yichen. Brother, why are you here? Where is Ning? Has she note?
Jing Yichen gave a negative shake of his head. Then he turned to Mu Qing. How is she?
Totally fine. She is not going to die. She can jump around happily. I have never seen anyone who can hop around in this way. She has been asking for you ever since she was brought here. She said that she wanted to give birth to babies for you! Tut, tut! Mu Qing shook his head and his eyes reflected sympathy.
Jing Yichen was a man who could easily attract women towards him, yet 99 % of the women tended to be frightened by his coldness and turned away in failure. He never gave those women a single chance of approaching him and made them lose thest hope with the worst method C asking Tiger to remove their arms and then tossing them out.
Tang Yun was the first woman whom Jing Yichen stayed a bit close to and she had been keeping himpany for a very long time. She had almost became part of Jing Yichens life.
Jing Yichen was cold and very few people were willing to get close to a man like him who isted himself from the world.
Also, Jing Yichen didnt publicize his identity as the heir of Family Jing and imed himself to be surnamed as Zhao rather than Jing.
Therefore, those people who were attracted to him, be it women or men, were so because they found him extremely good-looking.
Tang Yun was the only person who clung to Jing Yichen no matter how distant he was. Also, Jing Yichen couldnt get rid of her and she always had a way to know where he was and then follow him. She always appeared when he was in need.
Although Jing Yichen didnt like her, yet he regarded her as a friend C his life was ck and white and he had almost no friends.
He was way too smart and had a high EQ. He had experienced many things in this short life already.
The only person who could irritate him was Jing Yiran.
He never punched others in person and he hated to touch anyone. But he always punched Jing Yiran in person as if only in this way was he able to vent out his anger and to give Zhao Qing a touch of constion sitting in heaven.
Tang Yun had been badgering him all the time and she never gave up. But when the ident urred ten years ago, she was nowhere to be seen. Jing Yichen started to regard her as a friend, post that.
No one knew what happened back then and Jing Yichen didnt want to say anything either.
But after the ident happened, Jing Yichen started having a bigger reaction to being touched.
Mu Qing had learnt psychology and had tried to guide Jing Yichen through. But all methods failed!
Jing Yichen was way too smart. Therefore, the psychological guidance failed.
What Mu Qing knew was that Tang Yun had caused that incident and Jing Yichen was involved, thus bing the biggest victim. Jing Yichen was tormented to an inhuman degree whilst Tang Yun was totally fine.
She could mention that incident without concern, and she didnt reject being touched by anyone. She didnt even have any psychological panic after the gun attack.
But Jing Yichen had a serious follow through C at the beginning he couldnt even possiblymunicate with anyone. In Zheng Jings words, he had been trying hard to fight himself so as not tomit suicide.
The two people experienced the exact same thing yet Jing Yichen reacted in such a violent way. But Tang Yun was different. It was not true that Jing Yichen was less stronger than Tang Yun, psychologically. As the heir of Family Jing, Jing Zhongxiu had hired the top-notch team to train him and he had gone through incredible pressure and torment!
Even Zheng Jing said that only Jing Yichen was able to control himself from killing himself after that experience.
But then why was Tang Yun totally fine?
Mu Qing had been confused about this question for a long time. But he never mentioned that in front of Jing Yichen. He believed that a capable man like Jing Yichen must have considered this issue ages ago.
Or, something else happened, something that he had no idea of.
That was why Jing Yichen could tolerate Tang Yun and in a manner that it was not strange for Shangguan Ning to have gotten jealous.
Mu Qing was an outgoing person but he knew very well what to say and what to hide.
For example, Tang Yun had kept cursing at Shangguan Ning in a terrible way through the night but Mu Qing said nothing, in case Jing Yichen got angry.
That woman cries and makes a fuss. She is quite strong and insists that the child is yours. Jesus, she is suspecting my medical skills. I have just cured you. How can you have a child of two months!
What Mu Qing couldnt tolerate was that someone suspected his medical skills.
He would take it very seriously if someone suspected his medical skills apart from Mu Wensheng.
He had just imed that Jing Yichen was infertile in front of Shangguan Ning and made medicine for him. It had just been one month since that happened and now Tang Yun insisted that she was pregnant with Jing Yichens child. That was simply not possible!
Tang Yun was full of evil n, but sometimes her brain didnt work well. Did she assume that everyone would believe her when she said that the child was Jing Yichens? Did she assume that without the child, truth wouldnt be found?
Chapter 301 - The Rival Was Not Alone!
Chapter 301: The Rival Was Not Alone!
After hearing what Mu Qing said, Jing Yichen had no expression on his face as if he was not talking about him.
Although he had no reaction, Zhao Anan hopped up from the chair and said, in both fury and surprise, What child? Whose child? What are you talking about? Scumbag Mu, why didnt you tell me anything!
Mu Qing made a very innocent face and said, Hey, Zhao Anan, I wasnt the target! I have nothing to do with that woman. What are you getting mad at me for?
You concealed the truth, and that is a sin!
I...! Mu Qing got speechless. He hadnt thought it necessary to report it to Zhao Anan and if he had, she would have definitely freaked out as well. That wouldnt have helped the situation.
Jing Yichen looked at Zhao Anan calmly and said, Mu Qing has nothing to do with this matter. Someone got pregnant and I was the target. But I beat her yesterday so she had a miscarriage.
Shouldnt such a thing happen to Jing Yiran the scumbag, instead? Zhao Anan face held disbelief and she raised her voice. Brother, why have you be the target? Who is that woman? I will kill her now!
Having said the words, she walked out but returned as she reached the door. Then she asked softly, Brother, does Ning know about this matter?
Judging Shangguan Nings love for her brother, she might have gotten extremely mad after hearing what happened.
Jing Yichen said calmly, Yes, she does.
Zhao Anan felt her heart squeeze and asked with a bad expression on face, Is she furious? How could you have done such a thing? People make trouble because there is trouble to make. Thats why peoplee to you. It is definitely your fault!
Jing Yichen threw a cold look at her C why was she being so rude?
Why did she mean by people making trouble because there is trouble to makeC was he really a troublemaker?
Nonsense! Someone is setting a trap for me. I have never cheated on Ning. Now, get out!
Jing Yichen got a bit furious C he was definitely rted to this matter, but that was the enemys n. If people truly believed this, then they would start to suspect him very soon.
That was exactly what the enemy wanted to see.
It didnt matter who the father of Tang Yuns child was. What mattered was that people close to him would start to suspect him.
The culprit behind the entire n had predicted that Tang Yuns pregnancy im could be proved to be false very easily but that didnt matter.
What mattered was that there would be an estrangement between Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning and people around him would start to view him suspiciously.
Jing Yichen was really d that he was infertile right now. Otherwise a DNA test would have been needed to prove his innocence.
Jing Yichen got so disgusted by this incident.
He had never thought that Tang Yun would join forces with someone else to drive him to death.
She had risked her life to protect him, but now she was using an unborn innocent life just to set him up.
Jing Yichen scowled, frightening off Zhao Anan immediately.
She had just walked out when Tiger walked in.
Master!
Yes, how is it in America? Jing Yichen asked in a calm voice trying to suppress his irritation.
It has not been possible to contact Li Yong and his men. They might have... Tiger stopped talking.
Li Yong and Lee Duo were cousins, and he was also his good friend. They had been with Jing Yichen through life and death and had a very deep friendship tie with each other. Tiger was feeling uneasy since the time he hadnt heard from that man. He wanted to fly to the US immediately and find out the truth.
Li Yong had been in charge of Tang Yuns security and dozens of his men were assigned to protecting Tang Yun and satisfying all her request. They were also in charge of watching her every move.
It was almost impossible to make dozens of the men disappear at the same time because only ten of them moved on the surface at one time whilst the rest watched in secret. Tang Yun couldnt have possibly noticed that.
In such a case, there was only one possibility, namely, the enemy was not alone.
Ask Lee Duo to take some men to the US. We need to find our men, dead or alive! Jing Yichen sounded very cold. He regarded his men as his own brothers. Lee Yong had been responsible for Tang Yun who ended up making him disappear. He was getting more and more impatient towards Tang Yun.
Start by questioning our own men. Everyone must be inspected. Jing Yichen got extremely furious inside his heart. It had been a long time since someone in his team betrayed him. Every neer required strict scrutiny so that they were guaranteed not to have a change of heart. Unexpectedly, a huge mistake had been made.
Who was the man strong enough to make Jing Yichens men betray him?
Yes, Master! Tiger answered and walked out.
Seeing Jing Yichen wearing such a terrible expression, Mu Qing couldnt help but say. That so-called savior of yours doesnt seem to be a nice person. She is vicious and brainless. If you ever need to know anything from her, maybe I can be of some help. I am very good at making people talk.
That was exactly what Jing Yichen hade to Mu Qing for.
For getting information about the culprit behind Tang Yun, violence was definitely not to the method to be used.
Mu Qing was the best man who could make her talk.
Jing Yichen nodded and then walked out. Dressed in the doctors coat and holding a bottle of medicinal water in hand, Mu Qing followed him.
In a quiet ward which had the advanced equipment of Family Mus Hospital, Tang Yun was crying in a hoarse voice.
Brother Yichen, how could you be so ruthless? It was our baby, your baby whom you just killed. You can hate me, but you cant hate our child!
It is that foxydy Shangguan Nings fault. Had it not been for her, I would have married you and our baby would not have been gone in this way. Brother Yichen, are you afraid that I would have badgered you after I got pregnant? You are mistaken, I will not badger you any more! Do you think that if you kill the baby, you can deny your love for me and my love for you?
Are you worried that Shangguan Ning the bitch would get pissed? She is not pregnant but I was. She is so jealous of me. I am having such a terrible life...
Your life is indeed terrible, but soon you will notice that your fate is worse than you anticipated! Because I am here, Tang Yun!
...
Chapter 302 - Strangling (Part One)
Chapter 302: Strangling (Part One)
Tang Yuns crying voice was interrupted by the unexpected, chilly voice. She stopped instantly.
After she wiped off the tears and saw the person in front of her, she couldnt help but scream, Zhao Anan, what are you doing here? Get out of here now. Arent you dying of cancer? Why are you still alive?
Zhao Anan got startled and her face shrunk as she said, How did you know about my being sick?
It was an extremely confidential information concealed by Family Zhao and few people knew about it. Tang Yun shouldnt have known about the information as an outsider.
Tang Yuns expression stiffened.
Damn, that was a big slip of tongue!
Brother Yichen... told me about your disease. Yes, it was he who told me. He is so kind to me and tells me everything. So your disease is not a secret at all.
Zhao Anan trusted Jing Yichen more than she trusted Mu Qing.
Jing Yichen had been the perfect idol in her heart since she was a little girl. He was the man she admired and worshipped. Although he was cold and distant to people, yet whenever she was in trouble, he would always appear in time to solve the most difficult issue and chase the biggest trouble she was confronted with.
He was colder than everyone else but he cared about her more than anyone else. It was impossible for him to have told Tang Yun about her being sick.
Tang Yun, I didnt like you ten years ago and now I find you more annoying than ever. Jing Yichen has just one sister C me! So you better stop creating false titles around. I find your voice so disgusting. I know pretty well what my cousin is like, and he couldnt possibly have told you about my sickness. Spill! Who on earth told you about my disease?
Zhao Anan removed the belt off her waist and held it in her hand, menacingly. Then she tossed it between two hands, totally looking like a hooligan from the street.
Ten years ago, she had had a huge fight with Tang Yun and since then they always fought whenever they met each other.
Tang Yun had always been jealous about her being Jing Yichens cousin who could approach him and talk with him without caring about anything and who could be endless protected by him. So she kept creating trouble for her and trying to rece her.
How could Zhao Anan ever tolerate such a matter?
She was his only cousin. It was only natural for her to be by his side and get protected by him.
Who was Tang Yun, anyway? She kept nning vicious things and kept badgering him all the time. How dared she even think about getting close to her cousin?
That was why she punched Tang Yun whenever they ran into each other.
But Zhao Anan who was a good fighter often lost to Tang Yun.
Tang Yun looked fragile but she was extremely vicious. She didnt fight in a straightforward manner but used all of her force to punch her opponent to death.
After several failures, Zhao Anan had finally learnt how to deal with her. She carried a de with her and lunged at her, ripping her body with the de every time they met each other.
After being attacked by her many times and getting wounded, Tang Yun finally understood that she was also a vicious and fierce person.
When she saw her in front of her, she screamed in fright, trying hard to drive Zhao Anan off.
Zhao Anan, you are a maniac. You are Brother Yichens cousin and you are never going to marry him. Then why are you preventing me from being together with him? Are you jealous of me for being prettier than you? You should punch that bitch Shangguan Ning, instead. She has snatched your brother. You shouldnte to me to create trouble.
She had just said the words when Zhao Anans beltnded upon Tang Yuns white face.
Tang Yun let out a piercing scream and then fell off the bed on the cold ground.
A bloody mark appeared on her face, making her look miserable and scary.
With hands on the face, Tang Yun had tears trickling down her eyes in pain. She screamed. Go to hell, Zhao Anan! You dare to hit my face. I will ruin yours too!
Are you deaf? If you dont answer my questions properly, I will whip you to death. Zhao Anan bellowed furiously while holding the belt.
Seeing Tang Yun lying on the ground in a mess, she felt less depressed.
She was such an evil person.
She had saved Jing Yichens life and hence stayed in Jing Yichens heart because of which he kept looking for her for a long time and now when she was found, she came asking for the repayment by ruining Jing Yichens marital life.
Zhao Anan found Tang Yun disgusting. She had the belt dangling in her hand. Are you mental? I am his cousin. Why should I marry him? Oh, you probably dont know that I was the one who hooked Shangguan Ning up with my cousin. I am an excellent matchmaker!
Tang Yun got startled. She had never expected that Shangguan Ning had been introduced to Jing Yichen through Zhao Anan.
She had always thought that Zhao Anan liked Jing Yichen and wanted to take him as her own. That was why she didnt want any women to get close to him.
Could she have been mistaken?
I stopped you from approaching my cousin, because I hated you. Nothing else! Oh one more thing, you are way too ugly, just like a pig, never a match to my cousin. As for my sister-inw... I am very happy that she is married to my cousin.
Tang Yun felt her face burning with pain. She suspected that her face might have been ruined by Zhao Anan.
She wanted to get on her feet to scratch Zhao Anans face with her nails, but Zhao Anannded another shot at her.
With a loud thwack sound, Tang Yun screamed in agony once again.
Ignoring her pig-ughtering scream, Zhao Anan said, Is it so difficult to answer my question? Then let me ask you one more question C who is the father of your child? Why did you target my brother? It is a very disgusting thing to do. You are horrible. Why are you still alive? You should go and die right now!
Zhao Anan! Do you want to die? If your cousin ever gets to know that you beat me, he will get so angry that he will punish you severely. You will have 100 times worse life than me!
Another hit from the whipnded upon Tang Yuns arm. Some blood oozed out, causing a burning sensation.
Zhao Anan had used all of her force to whip her.
Chapter 303 - Strangling (Part Two)
Chapter 303: Strangling (Part Two)
Hearing her constant cursing, Zhao Anan stepped forward and stomped hard upon Tang Yuns chest, making her scream even louder.
Zhao Anan shut her ears and said impatiently, What are you screaming for? I am almost deaf by your loud voice. No one ising to rescue you today however much you scream. My cousin will get very happy if he notices me teaching you such a fierce lesson. My sister-inw will get even happier. When they are happy, they will certainly offer me tens of millions to splurge.
I have told you that you will suffer a lot today. If you ignore my warning and fight against me, then you shouldnt me me for killing you, because you are just too mean a person for me to show any mercy towards!
Zhao Anan, you have cancer and you will die soon. Why do you want me to die with you? Let me tell you, I will pay back whatever you do to me today, and you better not die too soon.
It hurt terribly on Tang Yuns face and arms. She hated Zhao Anan to the deepest level and she expected to get someones help to give her a good lesson once she was out of the hospital.
A cold smile hovered over Zhao Anans face. This was an expression she had learnt from Jing Yichen who always looked rather cool when he showed it. It was also a quite frightening expression that could drive people off. That was why she kept practicing in front of the mirror and now she could almost look like him when she did it.
After showing off her expression, she whipped Tang Yuns face.
Tang Yun instinctively covered her face, and the beltnded upon the fingers which had been stomped upon by Shangguan Ning, the day before. Ayer of skin fell off from the fingers, showing raw flesh.
Tang Yun almost passed out in agony and tears kept trickling down. She screamed so loudly that Jing Yichen and Mu Qing who were on the way to her room, could hear every single sound.
Aha, your fingers are wounded too? I am so sorry. I aimed at your cheeks because they are thick and proper for more whipping. But I didnt expect that your hands would be there. It doesnt matter. I will give your face some more whipping. Please pass on my gratitude towards the person who hurt your fingers. She is indeed a good woman.
Bah, anyone who dared to court her cousin and rob her best friend of her husband was simply seeking death!
She didnt care whom Tang Yun had saved. If she dared to bully her Beauty, she would absolutely not let her have an easy life.
The unbearable pain stimted Tang Yuns brain, making her be emotionally unsteady. She wanted to kill someone badly now. Zhao Anan, stop pretending. Bitch Shangguan Ning stomped on my fingers and I will stomp on hers one day. I will crush you to death. Brother Yichen is mine, and neither of you can get him away from me. I will be the Lady of Family Jing!
Zhao Anan shook her head and sighed. You are so full of shit even at the edge of death. Let me just strangle you to death, in case you try and hurt anybody when you are cured.
She circled the belt around Tang Yuns neck and then tightened it, making it look as if she really was going to strangle her.
Tang Yun was already very fragile after being punched and stomped upon by Shangguan Ning the day before. She had just had a miscarriage and received almost no food from Mu Qing, who hated her as well. Plus, Tiger and his men were guarding her and she had nowhere else to go except for starving in the bed!
She waspletely out of strength after being punched by Zhao Anan.
When the belt was around her neck, she panicked that she would suffocate. But she had no strength left to push Zhao Anan off her.
Fear finally started to dominate Tang Yun. She tried to pull the belt, but her face flushed due to difficulty in breathing. She begged for mercy on and off. An... I...am... sorry, I ... am wrong, please... spare... me.
Zhao Anan ignored her. With both hands, she used all her force to pull it up.
Anan, what are you doing! Stop it, now!
Tang Yun was about to die of suffocation when a cold voice prated, one that saved her from the Death of God like an angel.
Zhao Anan loosened the grip and Tang Yun breathed heavily, just like a fish that had just been tossed back into the water.
Cousin, why are you stopping me? How nice it would have been to strangle her to death. She is not a good person. You and Ning will suffer in the future because of her. Ning is not fierce enough, and she wont be able to fight against her.
Zhao Anan stood up and looked very displeased.
Mu Qing grabbed her and pulled her behind him as he said helplessly, My Princess, can you just stop for a while? Master Jing needs to ask her things and hence, she cant die now!
Even if she has to die, you wont be the one to kill her. Your hands are clean and it is not worth bing a murderer for her sake.
Seeing the half dead Tang Yun lying on the floor, Jing Yichen didnt feel a thing inside him.
He didnt feel anypassion towards Tang Yun. She could have had a good life but she turned it down and came to ask for death here. If she hadnt saved him before, she would have been dead hundreds of times already.
Anan, leave now. No more killing without my permission and no more punching either.
Zhao Anan snorted and turned around to walk away.
Tiger, get her to the bed.
Tiger strode up and carried Tang Yun back to the bed, disdainfully.
She had be even more vicious now, much worse than she was ten years ago. She had made dozens of his brothers disappear. That was why Tiger liked her even less nowpared to ten years ago.
Jing Yichen came to the bed and looked at Tang Yun coldly.
He turned towards Mu Qing and said, Check her up.
Mu Qing checked Tang Yun briefly and said at ease, Nothing serious. Anan knows how to control her force. She made her suffer on the skin, but not on the bones. It wont be difficult to heal.
Tang Yun finally regained her senses. Tears trickled down from her eyes heavily. Brother Yichen, I was almost killed by Zhao Anan. You must teach her a lesson. She has always bullied me. She is getting more and more vicious. I am so scared. Will she kill me?
She didnt mention anything about the baby in front of Jing Yichen but started to use Zhao Anan of her sin in tears.
She knew clearly that Jing Yichen was well aware that the child had not been his.
Chapter 304 - I Owe You Nothing
Chapter 304: I Owe You Nothing
Tang Yun became pregnant and came back not because she wanted to get Jing Yichens love!
She knew pretty well that she was never going to get Jing Yichens love, because he had given it all to Shangguan Ning. She was nothing in his eyes.
She wanted something more.
Jing Yichen said coldly as he looked at Tang Yun expressionlessly, Tang Yun, if you think that I have to be at your mercy forever because you saved my life once, then I think that you are being delusional. I have told you that what I owe you is what I owe you and what you owe others is what you owe others. You cant mix them up. I wanted to protect you and give you the best life. But you have chosen to give it up. From today on, I will recall all of my protection.
Tang Yun got startled. She felt something breaking inside her. It seemed that what she had been using as a bargaining chip for so long had just disappeared.
If you dont want to go to the USA, then you dont need to. Stay on in the hospital. I think that you would find it easier to meet your friend here and the evil ns can be made much more easily as well!
Brother Yichen, I dont understand what you are talking about. Tang Yun got a bit anxious. She was afraid that she had been seen through. If whatever she had done was known to Jing Yichen, she would suffer a great deal.
You clearly understand what I am talking about. Jing Yichen sounded steady like always. Nothing seemed different except for the cold and distant tone.
But Mu Qing standing next to him understood very well that he was trying hard to suppress his anger.
No one had tried to challenge Jing Yichens bottom-line constantly as Tang Yun whilst still remaining untouched.
Even Jing Yiran who had so manyyers of protection would fall into silence after each challenge C because he would always be injured and end up lying in bed for a long time.
Although Tang Yun was in a tricky situation right now, yet Jing Yichen had done none of these. Jing Yichen had always wanted to protect her from getting hurt.
If Tang Yun had not broken Jing Yichen bottom-line by iming that she was pregnant with his child, Jing Yichen would not havee this far.
Jing Yichen didnt like Tang Yun, but it couldnt be denied that she had a very important position in his heart. She had saved his life so Jing Yichen would try his best to keep her safe, no matter what.
Many people had tried to get the special care from Jing Yichen and that was exactly what Tang Yun got. But she didnt cherish the protection and kept provoking him all the time.
She knew Jing Yichen well but she couldnt understand that Jing Yichen had epted Shangguan Ning as someone really precious.
He treated Shangguan Ning as someone more important than himself. He could do anything for her sake and even changed his personality for her. He could even sacrifice himself just to keep Shangguan Ning well.
If someone dared to hurt her, Jing Yichen was definitely going to make that person regret.
Yang Wenshu and her daughter as well as Family Xie were proofs of this.
Jing Yichen never let anyone who hurt Shangguan Ning, go scot free.
It was very easy for him to make a person or an entire family die!
Mu Qing felt that the reason why Tang Yun was still alive after bullying Shangguan Ning was because Jing Yichen was restraining himself.
But Tang Yun was still provoking him and using Zhao Anan.
He really thought that Zhao Anan had taught her an insufficient lesson. She should have disabled her instead.
Tang Yun, do you think that I know nothing about what you did? I know everything, but I have been trying to control myself. Now I have decided to give up. I am here to tell you that from now on, I am done with you. I owe you nothing. Now, because of you, I owe my wife. Because you have made me make her feel upset and I wont let anything like this happen again in the future.
Tang Yun burst into tears all of a sudden, hearing Jing Yichens words. You are so ruthless! I almost died because of you and I have suffered so much. But you gave me up with just one sentence. How can you owe me nothing? You owe me a life. If I want you to die, you must die. If I want you to marry me, you must marry me. Your life is mine. Without me, you would have died ages ago. How can you stop protecting me, how can you say something so ruthless?
What is so good about Shangguan Ning so that you want to keep her safe? She has never saved your life and she is not a match for you. I am your wife and she is the third wheel. She took you away from me and I hate her as I hate you!
Seeing Tang Yun going crazy, Jing Yichen wanted to leave the ce.
He had started to miss Shangguan Ning after being here for a little while.
He wondered if she was feeling better today or was she still upset and shedding tears. He wondered if she would assume that he came to the hospital to check if Tang Yun was doing well and would she misunderstand him once again.
He wanted his wife to live happily every day, so he was trying his best to solve the troublesome Tang Yuns issues as soon as possible and return to a steady and peaceful life with his wife.
She got so furious yesterday and refused to drink the gold medicinal wine which Jing Zhongxiu had given her. She even refused to eat dinner and only had a little bit of the breakfast this morning.
He was worried that she would starve, she would get thirsty and she would get disappointed...
He was worrying and longing for her.
They had been separated for just one hour but Jing Yichen felt that they had been separated for a year.
He should stop her from going to work, because at least the servants could offer her food if she was at home C she wouldnt be starved there.
But he was also worried that she would get displeased if he stopped her from heading to work.
She cared about his work and she worked hard every day. She refused to give up or bezy just because she was his wife. She treated her life very seriously and even went to work when she was sick. That was why he didnt stop her this morning.
Jing Yichen felt his heart tremble. Without Shangguan Ning beside him, he felt very uneasy. He only felt assured with her in the arms.
Therefore, he wanted Tang Yun to understand that he had reached the end of his tolerance and he couldnt do this anymore.
Tiger and Mu Qing would be the ones left to deal with the remaining matter.
They would be enough to find out who was behind Tang Yun.
He was not in a mood to deal with Tang Yun. He just wanted to go to Shangguan Ning, to take her in her arms, to pamper her and to kiss her.
He missed her very much, but did she?
Chapter 305 - Bag Holder
Chapter 305: Bag Holder
Jing Yichen didnt care if Tang Yun hated him.
He had thought that he will always be able to tolerate Tang Yun however unreasonable she maybe, because he always regarded Tang Yun as the most important person to protect. He had never allowed himself or anyone else to hurt her.
He had wanted to make Tang Yun forget the shadow of the past and live happily.
But what Jing Yichen had found out was that only he was under the shadow of the past whilst Tang Yun was not affected at all.
Li Yong, who was in charge of her security in the USA had found out that Tang Yun didnt lose her memory in the past ten years. It had been an easy thing to discover, because loopholes were everywhere and it didnt take Li Yong much efforts to find out the truth. Tang Yun had always beenpletely normal and had never forgotten about what happened in the past.
All discoveries had led to one conclusion C Tang Yun was aplicated woman, beyond what Jing Yichen had anticipated. It was hard to understand her and she kept impacting Jing Yichens psychological defending line.
Jing Yichen had already started to suspect that Tang Yun hadnt had a simple goal to get to know him at the very beginning.
Therefore, he was not going to let this woman ruin his life anymore.
Mu Qing, get Zheng Jing here. Get everything she knows out of her. Tiger, remain here and tell me immediately when you hear something from Lee Duo.
Tang Yun was still crying and cursing at the top of her voice. After Jing Yichen delivered the order, he turned away, refusing to spare her even one more look.
After Jing Yichen left, Mu Qing injected the drug of hypnotherapy into Tang Yun before carrying out the interrogation.
When Zheng Jing arrived, he brought Zheng Lun along with him. He would take Zheng Lun with him wherever he went, because he had wanted her to socialize with the outside world and opposite genders, because in this way, she would realize that she was simply dependent on her brother rather than in love with him.
But it seemed that this method hadnt turned out to be so effective.
Zheng Lun was still very dependent on him and she would always tag along whenever he went out, even to the crime scene. She wasnt a woman who liked going out otherwise.
Zheng Jing understood that what she wanted was to be with him. As long as he was with her, she would be assured.
Zheng Lun went to Zhao Anan. She was here often these days, because she had be interested in hanging out with Zhao Anan due to her open personality, although Zhao Anan tended to talk about things that made Zheng Lun flush.
In the skyscraper of Jingsheng Enterprise, Shangguan Ning was carefully reading through the data of the financial department of the enterprise whilst Lu was licking a lollipop happily. She didnt disturb her work.
Shangguan Ning hadnt been in a good mood, but as soon as she threw herself into work, she forgot about everything else and became calm and rational.
She didnt resurface until her phone rang.
Her heart softened when she saw husband popping up on the phone screen.
Jing Yichen had saved the two characters for her. She had saved her number as President which was changed into husband after Jing Yichen had found out about it. He had asked her, Husbandes first, then bosses. How can you mix these two up?
She picked up the phone and said hello softly.
Take the special elevator ande down. I am waiting for you in the parking lot. Jing Yichen sounded very charming on the phone, making Shangguan Nings heart miss a beat.
I am working...
Baby, if you want me toe upstairs and bring you down, you can wait for me for a minute up there!
Shangguan Ning paused andpromised. Okay, I will tidy up ande down.
She understood that Jing Yichen was not just talking. If she truly refused to go down, then he was definitely going up to carry her downstairs within one minute.
Shangguan Ning packed away the documents, turned off theputer and said to Lu, Lu, I am going out, you dont have to follow me today. You can go anywhere you want. But dont eat too much candy. Go and have lunch with Uncle Lu, understand?
Lusrge and innocent eyes blinked as she nodded and said smilingly, Okay! I will definitely eat more food and more candies too!
Shangguan Ning didnt give her any more advice. Lu Qing cared about Lu more than she did and he was going to keep an eye out for how much candy she ate.
She patted Lus head, put on the coat and went down.
Jing Yichen was not in his Aston Martin, but in the renovated ck Volkswagen which was used to pick up Shangguan Ning.
Seeing Shangguan Ninging out of the elevator, he went up and took the bag from her hand. He also took hold of her hand, leading her to the car.
Startled, Shangguan Ning said in panic, Let go of me, what if someone sees us?
Jing Yichen was unmoved. He was already trying very hard not to kiss her, and if holding hands was not allowed, he was definitely going to publicize their rtionship right away.
I am notmitting a crime holding my wifes hands.
Give the bag to me, I can hold it myself!
If someone saw the President holding the bag for her, an explosion would ur in the enterprise the following day.
It is totally reasonable for a man to hold the bag for his woman. I will not give it to you.
Shangguan Ning couldnt argue with him, so she kept praying inside her heart that she would not run into any colleague.
But what was feared, always appeared. As they reached the car and were about to get inside, Xu Feng, the Director of Media Department just returned from business and ran right into them.
Shangguan Ning got a bit anxious, but Jing Yichen was holding her hand and standing there inposure, showing no intention of hiding.
Xu Feng got startled for a second when he saw the President holding a light blue womens leather bag and Shangguan Nings hand. He greeted Jing Yichen courteously, Greeting, Mr. President!
Then he greeted Shangguan Ning smilingly like usual. Morning, Deputy President Shangguan!
Jing Yichen nodded expressionlessly, as cold as always. Then, he opened the door and helped Shangguan Ning into the car.
Shangguan Ning hurriedly greeted Xu Feng with an embarrassed face. Morning, Director Xu!
Then she hurried into the car, daring not to look at Xu Fen again. She was worried that he was going to look at her with a different expression.
As a matter of fact, Shangguan Ning was panicking in vain. Xu Feng had been surprised for no more than a second. His chief, Deputy President Liang Fushi had already indicated to him that Shangguan Ning was thedy of the entire enterprise and that he must establish a good rtionship with her.
Chapter 306 - Holiday at the Village (Part One)
Chapter 306: Holiday at the Vige (Part One)
Jing Yichen drove out of the underground parking lot of Jingsheng Enterprise with Shangguan Ning. Soon they reached the highway.
Shangguan Ning didnt notice the road they were on because she was ring at Jing Yichen angrily, fearing that their rtionship would be known across the entire enterprise the very next day.
Baby, I will get overly proud if you admire me in this way.
As a matter of fact, what he wanted to say was CI feel much more assured when you, my honey, re at me as you usually do rather than stay silent and expressionless like yesterday.
Shangguan Ning couldnt get her fingers out of Jing Yichens hand. She raised their hands and then took a huge bite upon the back of his hand, leaving a mark.
It hurt a bit upon the back of his hand.
What do you mean by admire you? This is a scary look, okay?
Jing Yichen smiled. He leaned forward and gave a quick kiss upon her lips before continuing to drive.
He refused to let go of her hand.
Not being able to pull out her hand, Shangguan Ning finally left her hand as is. Actually, she had wanted to let it stay in his hand, because the warmth of his palm brought her warmth.
What are you doing at thepany? Didnt you go to the hospital? Finished the matter?
Not yet, someone else took over. My main responsibility is to keep youpany.
He said thest line with a grave face. That softened Shangguan Nings heart.
She thought for a while and asked, Is Tang Yun alright? She is not in a fatal danger, is she?
Although she didnt like Tang Yun, yet she had not thought about making her suffer. She had saved Jing Yichens life after all, and arguing with her was one thing whilst making her suffer, another.
Miscarriage could be very huge thing for a woman. It could be fatal too.
Although she had no idea who was the father of the child, yet it was a life after all. Shangguan Ning actually felt a bit bad when she had been kicked to the ground by Jing Yichen and ended up losing the baby.
Jing Yichen said seriously, Tang Yun is fine. But Ning, you dont have to tolerate her because of me. I have tolerated her enough and you dont have to pay for what I have done, because you dont owe her anything. I have always kept her safe through someone else, and I do want to repay my gratitude. But if she hurts you, I wont leave her alone. I wont mix them up, because these are twopletely different matters.
Jing Yichen had already lost patience with Tang Yun at this stage.
He just couldnt tolerate that someone was trying to ruin his family and his rtionship with Shangguan Ning.
They had always been in deep happiness. Had it not been for Tang Yun, they might never have argued with each other ever in their life.
That one time argument already made Jing Yichen felt guilty enough.
Difficulties were always a barrier for rtionships, which required full hearted devotion of two sides so that the rtionship could be better and better.
It was unrealistic when two people in a rtionship full of misunderstanding and arguments, came together in the end as what the novels, and movies showed.
In real life, huge misunderstandings would make rtionships less strong rather than deeper.
Jing Yichen knew Shangguan Ning well. She took everything seriously and gave up what was meant to be given up. She never dwelled long on one single matter and liked everything to be simple and straightforward, especially when it came to love.
The moment he married her, his goal had been giving her a steady and happy life. He had taken full responsibility of everything and acted as her umbre against storms, because he wanted to see her bright smile rather than tears.
If she had tears, then they must be tears of happiness rather than sadness.
Seeing Jing Yichen talk in such a serious way, Shangguan Ning had already forgiven him for what happened the day before.
It hadnt been Jing Yichens fault. It had been Tang Yun who was putting on the show.
She had been just too impulsive and angry the day before, and even if the news was false, she as his wife, was not able to stay calm after hearing that some woman was pregnant with her husbands child.
She knew pretty well that she cared a lot for him, and hence feared that there was much to lose.
She nodded and answered, Okay, I see.
Only when she came back to herself did she realize that they were on the highway.
Where are you taking me?
Jing Yichen said in an indulgent way, I am taking you on a holiday. I like it when you are happy and I am sure you will like the ce I have chosen.
Actually, a holiday was not necessary, because Shangguan Ning had vented her anger and stomped hard upon Tang Yun. She was no longer pissed and would be happy again within a couple of days, like usual.
But her man cared so much about her that he was pampering her. She felt her heart was so full of emotions, so she didnt turn him down.
They drove for almost two hours before reaching a rtively quiet path.
After they travelled for a while and went through a forest, they were greeted with a lovely view.
It was an endlessly stretching field. A brook was flowing through the farm field and seemed to lead into the edge of the sky. There was a patch of red tilted houses where smoke rose high up into the sky. It was a countryside.
Somewhere close to them were a couple of exquisitely looking vis.
Jing Yichen drove to one of the vis and someone came out to greet them.
Shangguan Ning looked at this ce in surprise, and was happy looking at the endlessly vast area and the fresh air.
Jing Yichen parked and walked out with Shangguan Ning.
Greetings, Master and Lady! A woman in her 50s greeted them courteously. Her round face was covered with a happy smile and she looked friendly.
She was dressed in a set of clean clothes and her hair was neatlybed. Her face was white and she didnt look like someone who worked in the vige. Instead, she looked like a woman who had been guarding the vi for Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning didnt know her and had no idea how she recognized her either. Maybe it had been because of Jing Yichen who informed her ahead of time.
Jing Yichen took hold of Shangguan Nings hand and said calmly, Ning, this is Aunt Fu, the Butler of this vi. You can ask her for anything.
Shangguan Ning nodded at the woman and said, Greeting Aunt Fu, we will need your care for the next few days.
Chapter 307 - Holiday at the Village (Part Two)
Chapter 307: Holiday at the Vige (Part Two)
Probably Aunt Fu had been used to Jing Yichen being cold and distant, she panicked a bit when she saw Shangguan Ning talking with her in such a polite way. So she said excitedly, Greetings, Lady! No, no, it is totally fine, no trouble at all. I have been looking forward to receiving you and the Master. You are so beautiful, just like a painting. You look so cute with the Master.
Shangguan Ning smiled and turned to Jing Yichen, only to see his expressionless face showing a tiny smile as well.
They walked into the vi and Shangguan Ning discovered that the vi was very simply yet elegantly decorated. It was not as magnificent as Family Zhao nor was it as luxurious as Family Jing. Every piece of decoration inside the room was very straightforward and the furniture was also mostly monochrome. Nothing extra was there apart from the daily necessities and simple decoration.
That made Shangguan Ning feel veryfortable. She liked the minimilistic style of decoration.
Jing Yichen led her to the bedroom upstairs and took out two brand new sportswear C one for himself and the other for Shangguan Ning. He was still dressed in a suit whilst Shangguan Ning was also in the professional clothes which she had worn for work.
Aunt Fu bought these in the morning, try and see if they fit. Jing Yichen gave the clothes to her as he swept her into his arms.
Shangguan Ning held the clothes and smiled. How would I get changed if you keep holding me in this way?
Let me help you change. Jing Yichen said as he started to unbutton her.
Shangguan Ning shook her head instantly, No need, I will do it myself. You can go and change yourself.
Jing Yichen didnt want to release her. He had been longing to hold her since the entire morning and he wasnt willing to let her go when they were not in a restrained environment.
Seeing him refusing to release her, Shangguan Ning didnt push him back too hard either.
With his woman in his arms, Jing Yichen had hisrge hands wrapped around her slender waist. He put his face against her tender cheeks as he said with a low voice, Ning, I would like to hold you for a moment, just one moment...
He was pleading as if he had lost the sense of security, making Shangguan Nings heart soften and ache.
Did she really scare him off so badly yesterday?
Shangguan Ning stopped moving. She tossed the clothes onto the bed and then held his broad waist, leaning inside his warm arms.
He was a legendary man, a president that each one of his rivals admired and feared. He was the elder master of Family Jing, one whom people admired and worshipped. He was good looking and outstanding and extremely self controlled and persistent. He was cold and distant, and he was wless. But she was his weak point.
He was a master in the business field and nothing was able to confuse him. But at this moment, he was so fragile.
He had left everything else just to bring her on a holiday. Shangguan Ning knew that he did all of this just to apologize to her.
Shangguan Nings heart was soft as water. She stretched up and gave a light kiss on his chin.
She was 168cm but he stood much taller at 188cm. She had to stand on tiptoes so that she could kiss the bottom of his chin. She was a tall woman but in his arms, she looked tiny.
Jing Yichen couldnt resist any more after being kissed by her. He lowered his head and met her soft lips, kissing her passionately, crazily.
The violent kisssted for a very long time, making Shangguan Ning suspect that they were going to continue to kiss until the end of the day.
Shangguan Ning felt her lipspletely numb when Jing Yichen finally stopped.
They were tightly holding each other, staring into each others eyes. They could see their own reflections and the love that couldnt be concealed.
They were panting heavily and were at the edge of bursting out.
Ning, I am yours only. I have never loved anyone else and I will never fall in love with anyone else, either. I cant ept anybody else, so please promise me, no matter what happens in the future, you mustnt leave me.
He said it in such an anxious way and looked so sincere that she was touched.
Deeply moved, Shangguan Ning said with slightly reddened eyes, Okay! Then she kissed his lips again.
Jing Yichen carried her to the bed and put himself upon her. He covered her with kisses as he went to unbutton her clothes.
Her soft and sexy curves were exposed and the white skin flushed with love, looked extremely tempting.
Jing Yichen hadnt had sex with her for several days and had missed her too much.
He held her body and whispered in her ear. Baby, I love you...
After a while, seeing Shangguan Ning nestled inside her arms like a little kitty, Jing Yichen found her too tired to do anything.
Jing Yichen gave a sympathetic kiss upon Shangguan Nings forehead and carried her into the bathroom.
While bathing Shangguan Ning, he found her white calves covered with dozens of deep marks of fingernails.
Jing Yichens heart shivered. He didnt know that Shangguan Nings calves had been hurt.
He sounded furious. Ning, did Tang Yun hurt youst night?
Shangguan Ning leaned herself against Jing Yichen.
She ignored her wounds. When she used to live with her sister earlier, she had been wounded many times on the sly and often got small wounds and bruises.
She was already used to that.
She held Jing Yichens neck and shook her head. It is okay. She did it when I had her under me yesterday. Her wounds were worse than mine. Her fingers must be skinned.
Jing Yichen felt his heart aching even more seeing her nonchnt attitude.
His cherished woman had been hurt by Tang Yun in this way. He had made love to Shangguan Ning just now but failed to notice her injured calves.
Chapter 308 - Holiday at the Village (Part Three)
Chapter 308: Holiday at the Vige (Part Three)
Jing Yichen nted a kiss upon her calves and then said seriously, Ning, you must tell me when you are injured. I will take revenge for you. You mustnt tolerate everything alone, understand?
Shangguan Ning was not a spoilt person. She could handle difficulties and she had always tolerated her injuries quietly. She never told anyone else and had even concealed them from her Uncle, with whom she only wanted to share happiness.
But when Jing Yichen indulged and defended her in this way, she felt that she was getting spoilt, because she could throw a tantrum, vent her anger, and even hit.
Shangguan Ning felt her eyes turn teary as she said softly, Honey, you will definitely spoil me...
Jing Yichen smiled as he took her into the arms. He dabbed body lotion upon her legs and said, My goal is to spoil you so that you can stay by my side all the time. You are my woman and I can indulge you the way I want to.
He liked it very much Shangguan Ning called him honey, because in this way, he felt that she was fully dependent on him and he was a sessful husband.
After they finished the bath, Jing Yichen helped Shangguan Ning get dressed. Then he took out the medical kit from the cab, picked the anti inmmation cream from it and spread it on the wounds on her calves.
In the brightly lit bedroom, the nail marks upon Shangguan Nings white calves looked increasingly clear.
Jing Yichen felt his heart aching. As he dabbed the wound with cotton sticks, he asked softly, Does it still hurt, baby?
A light smile hovered over Shangguan Nings face. It was hurting earlier but now when you are dabbing the medicine on it for me, I dont feel a thing. It is veryfortable, actually.
Actually, it did hurt a great deal.
When she was stomping upon Tang Yun yesterday, Tang Yun was also pinching her fiercely. Her fingernails were sharp and pointed and they went deep into Shangguan Nings flesh.
But she was extremely upsetst night and didnt even taken a shower. So she forgot about the injuries on her legs. When water went into the injuries this morning, it hurt terribly.
But she didnt want Jing Yichen to get worried. Also, with Jing Yichen by her side and taking care of her all the time, she felt that these injuries didnt matter at all.
Jing Yichen smiled as he dabbed the medicine for her carefully but felt furious inside his heart.
He could tolerate however Tang Yun behaved with him and whatever evil her ns were, but what he couldnt tolerate at all was that she had hurt his wife.
If Tang Yun had been standing in front of him, he might have lost control and punched her to death.
After dabbing the medicine, Jing Yichen put away the medical case and dried her hair. He was proficient in it now because he had done this for Shangguan Ning many times.
Shangguan Ning held his waist and allowed Jing Yichen to dry up her hair in peace.
She wasnt sure if everyone treated their wives so sweetly but what she did know was that no one else would love her as much as Jing Yichen did.
After a while, they went downstairs to have lunch.
Shangguan Ning was impressed by the food on the table as soon as she sat down.
The dishes were very simple and looked ordinary, but all of them were fresh and delicious and Shangguan Ning couldnt even recognize some of them.
Jing Yichen smiled and said, Most of them are wild vegetables. Aunt Fu dug each of them from the farm field. Try them!
Shangguan Ning tasted each of the dish and said with her eyes sparkling, So delicious!
She ate up all the wild vegetables and the bowl of shepherds purse porridge.
She ate so fast, but Jing Yichen opposite her was still eating in an elegant way. He barely touched the dishes but finished half of the porridge.
Shangguan Ning looked at him in astonishment. Eat! It is so delicious!
Jing Yichen smiled helplessly. These are specially prepared for you. I am a man of refined taste. I cant eat this kind of food.
Shangguan Ning got annoyed. Did she have a bad taste? She couldnt name those wild vegetables but they were very special and delicious.
Maybe Jing Yichen was not used to these dishes. He was, after all, very particr about food.
Only food made by Old Du could satisfy him. He only tasted a little bit of food made by everyone else.
After lunch, they took a nap and when the sun was setting, Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning outside.
Therge patch ofnd was part of Family Jings private property, including the vi group, which was developed and invested in, by Jingsheng Enterprise.
They went through a patch of green farmfield and then reached the brook that looked sparkling. There were fish the size of fingers, swimming back and forth in the brook.
The couple took a walk on the white sand beach next to the brook. Birds were chirping and childrensughter came from some distance.
Shangguan Ning was a city born girl and had never lived in the countryside before. She didnt recognize many of the crops but liked the simple and pure air in this ce.
It was an environment where there was nopetition or trouble or jealousy. It was peaceful like and outside the world where people could rx and be happy.
Shangguan Ning walked for a while and then suddenly stopped. She took off her shoes and held them in her hands.
She said happily, I want to walk in the water!
Jing Yichen took her shoes and socks in his hands and said indulgently, Okay, watch out and dont slip. Also, you have medicine on your calves, so no water on the wound.
The brook was very shallow and crystal clear. The water barely covered the back of her feet when Shangguan Ning walked in.
It was already autumn and the water was slightly cool. That made Shangguan Ning feel nice andfortable.
She kept walking back and forth inside the water, frightening off the fish. That made herugh loudly.
Shangguan Ning felt as if she had just gone back to her childhood, when Uncle used to take her to the riverside for fishing and she always wanted to y in the water no matter what. Uncle sometimes agreed that she could y in the shallow water though sometimes he didnt want her to get into the water. But she always came up with a way to get in, despite his disapproval.
Jing Yichens heart softened seeing herugh happily.
His wife was a woman who could be easily satisfied. A small thing could make her happy for a very long time.
Jing Yichen thought for a second and removed his shoes. Then he put the socks and shoes aside on the beach and walked into the water.
Seeing him join in as well, Shangguan Ning became even happier. She sttered water upon him.
Jing Yichen smiled and shielded himself before he also started the childish game of water sttering with her.
Chapter 309 - Potatoes on the Tree?
Chapter 309: Potatoes on the Tree?
The couple yed around by the brook side untilte evening. By the time they started to walk back, the sky had turned starry.
It was a full moon and the light cast over the entirend, brightening their way back home.
It was tranquil and wonderful with insects chirping, bringing new experience for Shangguan Ning who had always lived in the urban area.
It was not a smooth path in the countryside. Jing Yichen was worried that she would trip, so he squatted down in front of her and said, Hop on, let me carry you.
Shangguan Ning jumped upon his broad back happily and allowed herself to be carried by him.
Yichen, what is that? I have never seen it before.
Jing Yichen looked at the nts between her fingers and said softly, Hmm, you havent seen it before, but you ate it at lunch.
Ah, really? But which one is it? I ate so many things. Tell me!
Shangguan Ning went through the dishes in her mind but still failed to think of anything that resembled this green nt in front of her eyes. She kept swinging on Jing Yichens back, wanting to get the answer.
Jing Yichen wobbled because of her actions. He patted her plump butt and said smilingly, Dont move. You will fall.
What is it? Shangguan Ning felt a bit dispirited when she couldnt recognize any of nts on the path.
It is potato! Didnt you just eat potato pancakes which Aunt Fu made? But the root is under the ground and what you see are the leaves. How dumb can you be for not recognizing potatoes?
What do you mean by dumb? I have only seen potatoes before, not their leaves. I thought that they grow on the tree. How could I have known that they are underground? Shangguan Ning sounded dignified.
She was born as a daughter of the Deputy Mayor and had never seen potatoes when being nted or plucked. She hardly cooked and could only manage to make instant noodles and frozen dumplings.
Jing Yichen couldnt help butugh. It was definitely a new thing for him to know that potatoes could ever grow on the tree.
Potatoes always grow in the soil, not on the tree. I seriously doubt that you were one of the top 10 students in the ss. Is the rank counted from the bottom in your school?
Shangguan Ning pinched Jing Yichens ears betweenughs. Bah, no teasing me! I was not a top student, but I was not a bad one either. I was not as smart as you but top 10 was not a problem. But no one tested me about whether the potatoes grow on the tree or underground.
There was no such test!
That wasmon sense. Teachers would not possibly have designed such a stupid question. Teachers would probably only ask about the areas potatoes grew in and were distributed to.
Jing Yichen burst intoughter and said, Oh, I see, honey, there were only 10 people in your ss, right?
Annoyed and amused, Shangguan Ning struck hard on his back and said, Nonsense! We had 11 students in our ss.
Jing Yichenughed loudly.
He knew pretty well that there were more than 11 people in Shangguan Nings ss. Usually, there were 20 people in a ss of the aristocrat schools of A City and 30 to 40 in a ss of ordinary schools.
She was a good student and he was just teasing her. But she had started to tease herself as well.
Theirughter echoed across the farm field, startling off the birds that had just returned to their nests.
What about this? Can it be a nt with leaves outside and fruit underground? Shangguan Ning instantly asked without bothering about her dignity at the sight of another strange nt.
Jing Yichen saw it andughed. You have guessed right. A very good guess for an unknowledgeable person.
Shangguan Ning was not pleased. She pinched hard on his ears and said sweetly, No way, I didnt guess it. I never saw this before, so I assumed that the leaves cant be edible and only the underground part could be eaten. That was why I asked the question.
Ha, my wife is getting smarter. But she still has no idea what it is.
Jing Yichen never stopped teasing her. He smiled and said, These are sweet potatoes. We might be served sweet potato porridge tonight, because I saw Aunt Fu washing them as we came out.
Shangguan Ning didnt catch what he said in thest sentence. She got startled and said in astonishment, So sweet potatoes grow underground as well? I thought that they are on the trees too.
Jing Yichen was deeply amused by his wife. How could she be so silly as to think that all agricultural products grew on trees?
Heughed so hard that his body shook and voice changed. Honey, you better not ask others about these questions, you will definitely lose face numerous times.
Shangguan Ning flushed as well. But that was really what she had been assuming.
She had always lived in the city. How could she possibly have any idea about where these things grew?
You can ask anyone else! I am sure that no one knows about it. It is quite normal that I dont know anything about it... and I am sure that Anan knows nothing, nor does Zheng Lun...
Jing Yichenughed again when he heard Shangguan Ning defending herself.
You did pick the right people. Anan has never been to the kitchen in her life, let alone in a farm field. Zheng Lun has been protected like a treasure and was never allowed near any dangerous ce. What she knows is how to y the piano and paint. They are worse off than you.
Ning didnt get annoyed being demeaned by Jing Yichen. This man was, after all, a super student.
Being carried on his back happily, she allowed Jing Yichen to tell her about all kinds of nts.
How did you know all of this? You are also the master of Family Jing then how did you get to know about so many agricultural things?
Shangguan Ning was curious. Theoretically speaking, Jing Yichen shouldnt have known so much about agricultural stuff. It was normal that he could speak allnguages and decode encrypted information. It was also normal that he could run such an enormous business empire. But howe he knew so much about the countryside?
He smiled and replied, I was born a master, but it was not an easy thing for me to stay as one. I started to make a living when I was little, because father didnt give me any allowance. I have gone through all kinds of hardships and I have even nted some of these nts. Of course I know all about them.
Shangguan Nings heart ached after hearing him tell all this.
Sheined about Jing Zhongxiu for the first time. What was dad thinking? Why did he ask you to go through so much hardship?
Chapter 310 - Deep Love of Father’s
Chapter 310: Deep Love of Fathers
He walked across the isted farm field with Shangguan Ning on his back. It felt as if they were the only two people left in the entire world.
Jing Yichen shook his head slightly and said in an emotionden voice, No, Ning, I am very grateful to him. I had assumed that he was very strict and always dissatisfied and kept giving me stress although I did everything better than most people. Iined at that time and assumed that he was not a loving father at all.
When he thought back to the tough training, Jing Yichen found that everything was worth the while.
He said in a low voice, But now I understand what he was thinking. If he had not given me such strict training then and cultivated me in every possible way, I couldnt have possibly be what I am today. I might have lost my life in all kinds of battles. He did all for my sake and he acted like a tough father for my sake.
Everyone dreams about being in the position which I am in today, but I need to undertake enormous responsibilities. There are numerous people who n to defeat Family Jing every single day and to take away the properties of Family Jing. People can die for money, just like birds can die for food. Many people have used all possible methods to bring Family Jing down and if I am not capable enough, I would not be able to keep what I own. So I needed to go through all the hardships in the past, because they are extremely useful now.
Shangguan Ning knew pretty well the burden on Jing Yichens shoulders. She also knew that although Jing Yichen looked powerful, yet he had to make lots of efforts to be where he is today. He almost never rested and worked intensively for days in a row.
But she never expected that Jing Yichen could change so fast. He had had a very bad rtionship with Jing Zhongxiu before and now he was defending him.
She smiled and said, If dad ever gets to know that you speak so highly of him, he is definitely going to be very happy.
Shangguan Ning was the happiest person to see father and son getting on so well with each other. She had always tried to bring them closer.
She knew that Jing Zhongxiu cared about Jing Yichen more than anyone else did and that he just didnt say it out loud. Jing Yichen was cold to his father, yet he had been respecting him deep inside his bones all the time. They were estranged before, because Zhang Rong and Jing Yiran had been trying to sabotage their rtionship.
Jing Yichen smiled and said, I always speak highly of him, but not in the aspect of family rtionships. He is a qualified businessman, and an excellent leader. But he is not so good at dealing with family rtionships. So far, the rtionship between the two of you is probably the best. You are getting on so well with each other that I almost get jealous.
That is different, I am a girl, and I am his daughter-inw. Of course he wont treat me as strictly as he treats you.
Yes. You made me realise that father treats me strictly because he cares about me and loves me. He has never demanded that Jing Yiran should do anything and he never scolds him either, because he never wanted Jing Yiran to take over the family, from the beginning and had already decided to let me take over Family Jing.
Previously, people in the family said that father favored me, but I didnt believe them. But now, I understand that he never cared about Jing Yiran. He only had one demand from me, namely to let Jing Yiran live like peacefully. After all, he is also his son and if he cant give him the real fatherly love, he should at least make sure he can live a happy and stable life.
Shangguan Ning nodded and said softly, Yes, father always regards you as the heir and that makes you so excellent. I just feel concerned for you to have gone through such tough things and when you did, I wasnt there with you. That makes me feel bad.
Silly girl, even if you had been with me, it would not have changed anything. I was trained in an isted area and sometimes I was not allowed to talk with anyone for one to two months. After each training, I felt refreshed and the aplishments inspired me a great deal. That was what kept me going on. When we have a son in the future, I am afraid that he might need to go through this kind of tough training as well and you mustnt feel concerned for him.
That was impossible! Shangguan Ning was feeling bad about Jing Yichens past and if their son had to go through the hell like training, she was definitely going to get very concerned as well.
She started to plead for their son who was yet to be born. Trainings are necessary, but could you not tire him out? I remember you talking about surviving in the deserts. Can our son skip that?
Jing Yichen felt a bit helpless. Survival in the desert waspulsory, and there were other things like rainforests survival, deserted isles survival etc. This kind of survival training waspulsory every year, because these helped to enhance the surviving ability and willpower and helped a man to stay calm in all kinds of situations.
Well, trainings cant be skipped. But I will be with him all the time, you dont need to worry at all. But baby, the thing is, we need to have a son first!
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. Exactly, if we have a daughter, then she can skip all the trainings!
Jing Yichen also smiled. Then lets work hard tonight. Mu Qing says that I am totally fine and if you still can not pregnant after I work so diligently, then I will demolish his hospital.
The couple talked andughed all the way back to the vi. Aunt Fu had already got the dinner ready and waited for them.
She kept looking out of the vi all the time, fearing that they would get lost. What she didnt know was that Jing Yichen had a brain that remembered everything and that they were definitely not going to get lost, because he could recall every twist and winding road leading upto here.
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were both a bit hungry after the fun in the afternoon. Jing Yichen, who was particr about food, still ate a lot at dinner, making Aunt Fu very happy.
After dinner, Shangguan Ning went back to the bedroom for a shower. Jing Yichen didnt have time to get changed before heading back to the study to deal with matters.
Shangguan Ning knew that he was dealing with Tang Yuns matters, because she was involved in too many conspiracies and ns, making Jing Yichen be more and more cautious.
She changed into pajamas and read the news in the bed when Zhao Anan called her.
But before she was able to say anything, she could hear a screaming sound from the other side of the phone.
Chapter 311 - Enemy under Control (Part One)
Chapter 311: Enemy under Control (Part One)
You maniac woman, Zhao Anan, get out of here! Touch me again, I will make you suffer.
That hysterical voice belonged to Tang Yun.
Shangguan Ning frowned.
Zhao Ananughed and said cheerfully, Hey, Sister-in-Law, did you hear that? I am taking revenge for you. Oh, and Lun is tormenting this woman with me too, she has be a very bad girl now.
Shangguan Ning heard Zheng Lun whispering fearfully on the other side of the phone. Anan, lets... not shave her clean. She will look very ugly... your cousin and my brother will get very angry.
Zheng Lun was very timid and kind hearted. She couldnt have possibly be bad and must have been forced on site by Zhao Anan.
Also, Shangguan Ning was not so used to hearing Zhao Anan calling her Sister-in-Law.
Anan, what are you doing? I have already punched Tang Yun and you best not torment her any more, otherwise she would hate you.
Shangguan Ning was not so concerned about the fact that Tang Yun was getting hurt. She was worried that Tang Yun would take revenge on Zhao Anan. After all, she was a very vicious woman who could even take advantage of the baby in her own belly. Zhao Anan would run into big trouble if she was offended.
It is fine! Dont worry, even if I dont touch one of her fingers, she would hate me anyway, because ten years ago, we had already be enemies. She has beaten me many times before and today, it is time for revenge. How wonderful it feels! Also, she has dared to ruin your and my cousins rtionship and that is something I cant tolerate. Hey, dont hang up, I will live stream for you. Listen carefully!
On the other side of the phone, Zhao Anan turned on the speakers volume of the phone after she finished talking. Then she ced the phone aside, snatched up a sharp de and started to shave Tang Yuns hair. Tang Yun would look like a big mess with the red whipping traces left by Zhao Anan in the morning.
Stop it, you crazy woman! Hands off my hair! Ah! You hurt my scalp. It is hurting. You bitch, you must have done that on purpose. I want to see Brother Yichen, get him here. Lying in the sickbed, Tang Yun cried and cursed. She was tightly tied up by Zhao Anan and wasnt able to move even an inch. She was at the total mercy of Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun.
Zheng Lun had never done anything that offended people since she was little. The fingers that held the de shivered terribly and she just couldnt do the deed.
Anan, we might be making a mistake. She looks so... pitiful, cant we...
Zhao Anan red at her unhappily. Ha, so she is right to have ruined my cousin and my sister-inws rtionship? She keeps saying that she is pregnant with my cousins child and that pisses Ning off. Is that right? She even wants to rece Ning to marry my cousin, what is Ning going to do?
Zheng Lun was startled. She stumbled, It is true that... she is wrong, but...
No buts! Zhao Anan looked so fierce that the timid Zheng Lun gave a shiver.
If you dont do what I say, I will go to your brother and tell him everything about you.
That threat of Zhao Anan was simply too shocking and powerful. Zheng Luns face turnedpletely pale and she was on the verge of tears as she said anxiously, No, no, no, please, Anan, please dont say anything. I will do as you say, I will shave her head clean. I will definitely do that. You promised that you would keep it a secret and you mustnt break it. I treat you as a very, very good friend.
Seeing Zheng Lun wearing such a pitiful and nervous look, Zhao Anan couldnt help but feel bad about herself.
She was casting threat upon such a pure little flower who grew up under the protection of a greenhouse. She had been a woman who cared about women, but now she made herself look like a killer who scared the little girl off.
Zheng Lun trusted her so much to have told her the deepest secret of hers, but she used that as a threat upon her. How horrible she must have be.
She looked up at Zheng Lun who was covered in sweat and fear and found her extremely beautiful with the tender skin and petite frame. Her shoulder-length hair was shining, and her innocent look would make any man want to sweep her into his arms.
Zheng Jing was indeed a very lucky man to have such a devoted girl.
Well, Lun, you have to listen to me. When you do me a favor, I will also help you with one favor in return. You will definitely be grateful to me in the future!
Zheng Lun nodded instantly, I will, I will, as long as you dont tell my brother about it!
Having said the words, she came to herself and asked in bewilderment, Anan, what do you want to help me, with?
Was she offering to help her and her brother?
That was impossible. Her brother didnt like her in a womanly way. What was more, no one would be able to help her with it. She was Zheng Jings younger sister.
She had been a secret keeper of her own affairs and didnt want her brother to know about it, not even their parents. Her parents regarded her as a princess and if they ever knew that she had fallen for her own brother, they would definitely get devastated.
Zhao Anan smiled mysteriously and she struck her chest. No telling! But what you need to know is that I will be very helpful. Maybe you need to taste some bitterness, but the result would be totally satisfying.
Having heard what she said, Zheng Lun got increasingly confused. But she didnt ask anything more, as long as Zhao Anan didnt reveal her deepest secret, she would be willing to go through any kind of bitterness.
Shangguan Ning heard clearly what they were talking about from the other side of the phone. She was just surprised that Zhao Anan got to know about Zheng Luns love for her brother so fast. After all, Zhao Anan could not see through anything unless someone else told her.
Silly girl, Zheng Lun must have regarded Zhao Anan as a good woman, so she spilled out the secret to her after being with her for such a short time.
Or maybe it was because that secret had been hidden inside the bottom of her heart for too long to remain hidden any more.
Shangguan Ning reminded Zhao Anan from the other side of the phone, Anan, Lun trusts you very much and you mustnt mess around. She is very timid and shy, totally different from you, and you must keep her safe and well.
Zhao Anan got very surprised. You know what I am talking about?
Chapter 312 - Enemy under Control (Part Two)
Chapter 312: Enemy under Control (Part Two)
Zhao Anan was confused. She had known Zheng Lun for so many days and she told her about it when she was with herst week. How did Shangguan Ning know about Zheng Lun being in love with Zheng Jing?
Shangguan Ning said softly, I know, but Lun, I will keep the secret for you.
Although she said that through the phone, Zheng Lun instantly blushed.
She had thought that her secret had been safe, but unexpectedly, Shangguan Ning had noticed the secret after just one meeting. Zheng Lun was a pure girl and she would never think that Zhao Anan would spill the truth.
She wanted to exin her emotions but she realised that whatever she would say would be in vain. Sister falling for her own brother was a wrong thing, in all possible ways.
Zhao Anan saw Zheng Lun struggling inside her heart, so she said casually, Alright, alright, lets get back to our serious matter. Lets do it fast, otherwise we would be screwed if Mu Qing and Zheng Jinge in right now.
Shangguan Ning said between annoyance andugh, Anan, stop messing around, I have taken revenge for myself...
Before she could finish her words, Tang Yuns shrill curses came from the phone. You are doomed to death, Shangguan Ning! You are such a bitch to have taken my man away from me. What are you talking about? You are not qualified to marry Brother Yichen. He is mine. His life is mine too. Get out of Family Jing. You are not meant to be thedy of the house. I am. I already had it ten years ago.
Shangguan Ning got very annoyed by what Tang Yun said.
Each word of what Tang Yun said made Shangguan Ning feel very ufortable. She wanted to gag her now.
How could she be so hateful? She had wanted Zhao Anan to release her, but now Shangguan Ning wanted to torment her as well.
Apparently, Zhao Anan didnt like hearing Tang Yun talking nonsense, so she sneered. Ha, still seems very energetic. Did you get fed well tonight? Dont worry, I will make you spill out everything. For now, lets make you go bald. Oh, right, the de is blunt, so dont me me if I end up hurting you.
Having said the words, she felt her mood improve. She gestured to Zheng Lun and then started to shave Tang Yuns hair.
Dont move around, Miss Tang, I am not proficient enough and if you move so much, I might end up hurting you.
Anan, Zhao Anan, please leave me alone! I will never fight with you and I will not stick to Brother Yichen either, please, stop now. It hurts so much, I am bleeding. I am dying.
After cursing, Tang Yun started to plead. She looked very pitiful in tears, just like a fragile girl who was being bullied by a hooligan.
She was really an adaptable girl. Although she wanted to chop Zhao Anan into pieces right now, yet for her own life, she could look so pitiful and delicate.
Haha, Tang Yun, can you believe your own words? I lost ten years ago because I believed what you said, and took your pleading very seriously. But you stabbed me when I wasnt paying attention. I still have the scar of your stabbing on my thigh and I would be stupid to believe you again.
It is true, Anan, it is true! I was wrong before and I have changed myself. Please, leave me alone, we have known each other for more than ten years and I have saved your cousins life, you mustnt treat me like this.
Zhao Anan sneered and didnt stop what she was doing. She continued to shave Tang Yuns head in a very unprofessional way.
Oh just stop it, dont waste your energy. I keep promises and do everything that I say. You are half shaved and look so ugly, let me shave it clean so you can look better. Dont worry, I wont charge you for it. I am a kind-hearted person.
Tang Yun got so annoyed that she tried hard to get rid of the two sheets that were restraining her.
Zheng Luns de cut into the scalp because of Tang Yuns move. Blood gushed out and it scared Zheng Lun off.
She said anxiously, Ah, Miss, dont move around. You are bleeding, I have blood on my hand and it is scary!
Tang Yun got so annoyed hearing what she said that she almost passed out.
That was her blood. Why was she still doing such a thing when she was so timid? Why was she still hurting her?
She got so furious that her inner organs started burning up. She hurt everywhere and the scalp was piercingly painful. Every time she was about to pass out, a knife would cut into her scalp and wake her up.
Tang Yuns scream and Luns sound of constion kepting out of the other side of the phone. Although Shangguan Ning felt very relieved and happy when Zhao Anan was taking revenge for her, yet she was also worried that she would kill or hurt Tang Yun in a serious way.
Anan, stop it now. You have punished her enough, stop now. She has to be okay. She has saved Yichens life after all, and we mustnt be too harsh!
Zhao Anan answered briefly and continued to shave Tang Yun. She stood up and pped her hands when she finished. Alright, all is done! I will snap a picture for memory. If you ever disobey me in the future, I will send this horribly ugly picture to everyone to see how hideous you look without hair!
She took some pictures and said to Shangguan Ning, Sister-in-Law, I am very loyal right? See how nicely I have been treating you to have given such a good lesson to your enemy. How will you thank me? Shouldnt you give me hundreds of thousands of yuan to spend?
Shangguan Ning smiled. You call me Sister-in-Law, and that means we are a family. Families dont talk about money.
Zhao Anan was very wealthy, but Zhao Zhao didnt give her too much pocket money, because she would go about with money in hands and could vanish. Zhao Zhao didnt want anything to happen to her, so she had a very strict control over her pocket money.
After knowing the reason, Shangguan Ning didnt lend money to Zhao Anan any more. What if she disappeared after she got money? Mu Qing had been waiting for her for so long and he mustnt keep on waiting any more. They were meant for each other and Shangguan Ning hoped that she and Mu Qing could live happily for their entire life.
Chapter 313 - A New Tang Yun
Chapter 313: A New Tang Yun
Bah, so stingy! Zhao Anan snorted and then said, Anyway, Lun and I need to leave this ce now, otherwise we will be in big trouble if Zheng Jing catches us on site. He has even stressed to me that I mustnt bring Lun here and cause trouble.
Shangguan Ning felt a touch of warmth flowing across her heart. She was very grateful for what Zhao Anan had done for her.
Tang Yun was a thorn inside her heart. They had never been friends to begin with but after she had a huge argument with her, they had be enemies. Zhao Anan chose to stand by her side without hesitation and helped her punish that detestable woman, which moved Nings heart.
After hanging up, Shangguan Ning noticed that Jing Yichen was already there. She had been so immersed in the conversation with Zhao Anan that she didnt even notice his presence.
Jing Yichen walked forward and held her by the waist, tucking some errant hair behind her ears. He said softly, The woman is still alive?
Shangguan Ning had thought that if he ever begged for mercy for Tang Yun, she would have released Tang Yun.
No matter how annoying she was, she had once saved Jing Yichens life. That was already a huge favor and she couldnt hurt her so badly.
Jing Yichen asked the question in such a way, that it made her feel guilty.
Jing Yichen had never nned to beg for mercy for her. What he cared about was how she felt as his wife about it.
Not yet, but she is suffering a great deal. I had not wanted to tell you that, fearing that your heart would ache for her. But you overheard everything. Dont me Anan, she punished Tang Yun for my sake, just me me if you want to.
Jing Yichen pinched her chin and said unhappily, Ning, no more such talks, okay? Why should my heart ache for anyone else? You are enough for me and I dont have so much time for other people. I dont even care about Anan. Tang Yun saved me once, but I only regard her as someone I feel grateful towards. However she doesnt affect how my heart feels.
As a matter of fact, Jing Yichen had never experienced heartache before meeting Shangguan Ning.
He used to be cold and distant to others and only paid a little attention upon Zhao Anan to ensure that she was fine. For example, if Anan was bullied by someone or hurt by someone in a fight, he didnt even give her a look.
He didnt care about anything unless Zhao Anan threatened him with the two olddies at home.
But after meeting Shangguan Ning, he felt heartache for the first time. His frozen heart softened every now and then because of her smile.
So he wanted to exin clearly to her that his feelings for Tang Yuan differed from those he had towards Shangguan Ning.
Sure enough, after the exnation, Shangguan Ning smiled. Then she kissed his face happily. Okay, you are not allowed to feel concerned for others. You are only allowed to feel concerned for me.
Her mood was always able to affect Jing Yichens mood. He also felt happy when he saw her happy.
He gave a kiss to his wife and then went to take a shower. When he came out, he found that Shangguan Ning was still awake.
Heid down next to her and then swept her into his arms as he asked in a low voice, What is it? Not asleep yet?
A soft smile hovered over Shangguan Nings face. I cant fall asleep until you tell me what it is going on.
Jing Yichen understood that she was referring to Tang Yun. He had not wanted to conceal it from her and seeing that she asked, he said softly, Things are getting moreplicated than I had anticipated. Tang Yun is involved with far too many forces. She got pregnant on purpose and ording to her, Jing Yiran and a womanbined their forces to help her with the n.
Tang Yun is not as simple as I have anticipated. When Zheng Jing interrogated her, he found out that she has been trained before. When she lost the most fundamental ability of awareness because of the drugs, she was still able to lie. Mu Qings drug is top-notch in the world and very few people could have resisted that. Zheng Jing said that if anyone can resist that drug, he or she has to be trained for at least four years and he or she has been taking that medicine regrly so as to form such a strong ability of resistance.
Jing Yichen was frowning and sounded serious.
Tang Yun was looking more and more suspicious.
He had never asked Tang Yun about her family. Nor had he ever done the research before, because he didnt care about this woman ten years ago and he didnt care about her ten yearster. So he hadnt made any efforts in getting to know details about her background.
He had only heard Tang Yun mentioning that her parents died at an early age and that she was an orphan living with an uncle.
But ording to Lee Duos research, traces of her past life had been cleaned up. It was impossible to find out her past documents, nor could her parents or uncles documents be found. Ten years ago, she appeared from nowhere and then disappeared somewhere until ten yearster she was found by Jing Yichen.
Or maybe she had not been found by Jing Yichen. She had just made it look like it.
Ning, I need to get to know Tang Yun from scratch. She is very different from how I remember her.
Jing Yichen sounded very confused.
She slipped her arms around Jing Yichens waist and put her forehead against his and said, Yichen, it doesnt matter what kind of a person she is, as long as you dont change. You cant possibly see through every deceit.
Tang Yun admired Jing Yichen and that couldnt be hidden. She might have had other purpose, but it was clear that she had fallen for Jing Yichen. And this kind of crazy admiration and extreme personality had perfectly hidden her purpose and motivation, so that everyone would think that she was just a woman blinded by love.
Jing Yichen thought about Nings words and soon adjusted himself mentally.
Tang Yun was not someone special for him. She was just a gleam of warm sunlight in his past life of darkness. But now, he gradually understood that the sunlight had been a false impression.
That was something Jing Yichen couldnt possibly ept. The sunlight he had been chasing for ten years turned out to be nothing other than a delusion.
But he was not someone ordinary. He had strong willpower and the ability of self-adjustment. He could control his emotions quickly and start to analyze the issue in calmness and rationality.
Chapter 314 - The Clumsy Ms. Farmer
Chapter 314: The Clumsy Ms. Farmer
The only one who could truly affect his emotions was none other than Shangguan Ning. In fact, her influence had already broken through his willpower, making him helpless in front of her.
Because he cared about Shangguan Ning too much to move his heart away from her.
Ning, you must be careful in theing days and make sure Lu is with you when you are outside. She is intuitive towards danger and will sense any potential threat. Lee Duo is abroad right now, but I will ask someone else to follow you and keep you safe.
Hearing his serious tone, Shangguan Ning couldnt help but get nervous. You must keep yourself safe too, make sure you have enough men with you.
She had no idea who was it that wanted to bring Jing Yichen down and how many of them were there. But judging from how Tang Yun was behaving C extreme and fierce, she understood that these people wouldnt fight with him openly.
Seeing her getting nervous, Jing Yichenughed and then patted her back softly as he said, It is okay, dont worry. They wont dare to do anything impulsive. If I was easily defeated and Family Jing could be broken down so easily, then it could not have prevailed for hundreds of years. For four generations, Family Jing has had only one son. Jing Yiran is the only love child in my generation, otherwise I would have been alone. There are few people in Family Jing and killing the heir would be the fastest way to bring down Family Jing. But for so many years, no one has managed to realize this wish, do you know why?
Shangguan Ning looked up and curiously repeated Jing Yichens words. Why?
Because Family Jing is not only powerful but also vicious. No one dares to offend us easily. When I was shot thest time, dad spent the entire day forcing the killer to kill himself and destroyed the entire Family Yang. There are no more than five people of Family Yang in the entire world left now and the number is getting smaller. There will be none left in the end. Other people say that he is too vicious, but if he werent, Family Jing would not stand firmly on the ground and I would not have been protected so well. Anyone who hurts me would be ruined, including his family, no matter how powerful a family could be. Grandpa once did the same, and he is more vicious and crueler than father.
Therefore, no one dares to take my life. Family Yang found a willing killerst time because they aimed at you. If Family Yang had known your real identity, they would not have done what they did.
After our wedding, my identity will be publicized and it will be spread around so that all the forces know of me. Although my life would be exposed, yet that can also lead up to a powerful umbre of protection. Family Jing is famous in both the legal and illegal field. Some people might get resources from us but few would try to break us down. Anyone who tries to bring us down is dead.
Jing Yichen was describing the status and ability of Family Jing in a calm tone, but to Shangguan Nings ears, it sounded incredibly intimidating and proud.
Crisis had arrived and blizzard was on the way, but Shangguan Ning felt somehow rather assured with him beside.
He was safe. Shangguan Ning got assured and fell asleep holding his waist and nestled in his arms.
Shangguan Ning woke up in Jing Yichens arms the following morning.
The moment she opened her eyes, she could see the perfect side profile of Jing Yichen in deep sleep. She could smell his unique scent, making her feel warm and secure.
Outside the vi of the vige, the happy chirping sound of birds could be heard everywhere, making the sunny morning full of vigor.
Shangguan Ning went up and kissed the tempting lips in front of her.
But the moment she leaned in, Jing Yichen opened his eyes and looked at her, making Shangguan Ning flush.
She struck upon Jing Yichens chest and said in a hoarse voice, You did that on purpose, didnt you!
Jing Yichen chuckled and kissed her before saying, Yes, I did it on purpose. I just wanted to see if anyone was going to steal a kiss from me.
Shangguan Ning snorted and threw a nce at him. I am not stealing a kiss, I am giving a generous kiss. You are my husband, and I am totally allowed to kiss you.
She barely talked in such a proud way and right now sounded just like Jing Yichen.
The smiles on their faces were also identical.
Alright then, get up now. Lets get back to the city today, we have loads of work to do at thepany! Shangguan Ning pinched his arm and tried to drag him out of the bed.
But Jing Yichen remained on the bed. With fingers intertwined with hers, he said softly, There are always loads of things to do at thepany. I have hired those people so that they can be useful at this point. We are on a holiday and you can have as much fun as you wish. Leave everything aside until you are fully satisfied.
Shangguan Ning thought for quite a while before deciding to stay for two more days here. She liked this ce that only belonged to her and Jing Yichen.
They got up, changed, ate breakfast and then went out.
Seeing her newest outfit, Jing Yichenughed all the way.
Ning had changed into a set of cotton cloth which belonged to Aunt Fu. She had just bought the clothes yesterday and Shangguan Ning took them to wear. Jing Yichen had given her some more money to buy a new set.
Aunt Fu was as tall as Shangguan Ning, but she was a few sizes bigger than Shangguan Ning. Dressed in baggy clothes with white and red floral patterns, Shangguan Ning did look like a Ms. Famer with the veil on the head, basket in arms.
Noughing! Shangguan Ning pinched Jing Yichen furiously and threatened. One more smile and I will get you dressed in this way too.
She had been feeling very happy after getting dressed in these clothes as a farmerdy. With a basket in her arms, she was fully prepared to dig sweet potatoes with Jing Yichen from the ground. But Jing Yichen kept teasing her, making her feel conscious.
Jing Yichen restrained hisughter. Alright, alright, no moreughing! Your being farmer is enough, dont make me one too, or I will not even step outside. Lets go and dig the sweet potatoes. The lunch depends on you!
Of course! Shangguan Ning responded happily and ran to the sweet potato field confidently.
But she had no idea how to use the shovel, as a result several sweet potatoes had been cut into halves by her while digging them out and the leaves were left everywhere.
Jing Yichen took the small shovel from Shangguan Ning and shook his head helplessly. Just take a break, wife. We will starve if you continue in this way. Let me do that instead. You just wait aside for food.
Chapter 315 - Another Smart Conspiracy!
Chapter 315: Another Smart Conspiracy!
The three day holiday in the outskirts had helped Shanguan Ning rx totally. On the morning of the fourth day, she and Jing Yichen went back to the city.
Compared to the leisurely pace of the countryside, the city was bustling and stressful.
Although Shangguan Ning liked the pure and simple atmosphere of the countryside, she didnt cower down in front of the stress andpetition of the city. She was not a woman who bent or bowed down. After years ofpeting with Shangguan Rouxue, she had always found herself on the losing side. But she never gave up on anything except for Xie Zhuojun.
At that time, she was not very pleased by her defeat. But she had no n of getting him back to her side anyways.
He was not worth her attention post that.
After tidying herself up, Shangguan Ning changed her clothes and went to thepany while Jing Yichen went to the hospital.
Master Jing, Tang Yun is a veryplicated person.
The moment Jing Yichen entered Mu Qings office, Mu Qing said this furiously to him.
Zheng Jing and his sister Zheng Lun were there too. He looked at Zheng Lun. Lun, go out with Anan.
Zhao Anan knew that they were going to discuss something important. Although she was very interested in what they were talking about, she still dragged Zheng Lun out of the office.
After Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun left, Jing Yichen said to Mu Qing, Cure her first. Dont let her develop anyplications.
He didnt want Tang Yun to run into any trouble before everything was rified. He wanted to make sure that she was not injured again.
Okay. She is fine and will be fully cured after a few days rest.
Also, dont let Anan and Zheng Lun get close to her or hurt her, in case they run into dangerter.
Tang Yun was a fierce woman and that hadnt changed during the past decade. She was getting more and more aggressive. Zhao Anan may have won now but she will run into troubleter.
As they were talking, there was a knock at the door. Tiger walked in and said in a low voice, Master, Lee Duo has found the missing brothers in America, they are all... dead!
Jing Yichens pupils red and knuckles turned white. He said in a cold voice, Check everything out properly. I want to see who it is that dared to touch my men!
His men had been by his side for years and were his loyal brothers. But now they were all gone.
Jing Yichen was more shocked and angry than he looked!
All of them died had because of Tang Yun.
He hadnt lost so many men at one go, during so many years.
He pressed down the anger inside his heart and started to ask Zheng Jing and Mu Qing about the information which they had extracted out of Tang Yun.
They discussed and analyzed the information for a long time but Jing Yichen couldnt stay calm any more.
He was not a man easily swayed by emotions. No matter how big the incident was, he could adjust himself well within a short period of time.
He got up and said softly, Tiger, release Tang Yun. No more treatment for her. You dont need to follow her in the following week. We will make our move when the man behind her lowers his guard.
Tiger knew that his master was going to make Tang Yun the bait.
Jing Yichen strode out of the office and went to the ward where Tang Yun was staying.
In the ward, Tang Yun looked extremely pale. Her long hair was gone and she was now a bald woman with a thickyer of gauze over the head. Mu Qing asked someone to get her head bound up after he noticed her injuries.
She looked a bit messy but there was no remorse in her eyes. Instead, they were twinkling in anticipation.
Seeing Jing Yichening, she had tears trickling down her cheeks as she said in a wronged tone, Brother Yichen, finally you are here! I thought that you never wanted to talk with me any more... I am so scared when you are not with me. They all bullied me and Anan shaved off my hair. I am so ugly now. I am not even fed well here, please release me, alright? I will not cause you trouble any more in the future, and I will obey you! Please...
Before she could finish the word, Jing Yichen said coldly, Who are you?
Tang Yun paused and got startled as she started to shed tears again. What is wrong, Brother Yichen? I am Tang Yun! Please, dont look at me like this. You know who I am, who else can I be? You know that pretty well.
The men I sent with you could prevent you froming back, but they never restrained your freedom. They were there to protect and obey you. Now they are dead, all 47 of them. You better give me an exnation.
Jing Yichen got very fierce and intimidating, cornering her with his words.
Tang Yun shivered. She struggled to sit up and leaned against the head of the bed as she cried. Brother Yichen, I really dont know about it. Jing Yiran helped me with my return. Oh yes, he must have killed those men. I have nothing to do with it. How could I possibly kill them? They had simply fainted when I left. They were not dead.
That was what Zheng Jing had gotten out of Tang Yun when she was half-awake.
But Jing Yichen didnt believe that.
Although Jing Yiran had caused the death of many of his men, yet their years of fight against each other had led to a tacit agreement. Only juniors would be dead in the fight and the leaders always survived. That was also what Jing Zhongxiu demanded, otherwise their forces would have diminished and be bad for Family Jing to fight against the outsiders.
This time, the leader was Li Yong, the third major follower of Jing Yichen and he was dead too.
Jing Yiran was indeed a cruel man and had never followed any principles. He used all methods to do anything but he rarely disobeyed Jing Zhongxiu.
Just like Jing Yichen, he had no strong father and son rtionship with Jing Zhongxiu. But he respected him a great deal and regarded him as his role model. Jing Yichen might disobey what Jing Zhongxiu said sometimes, but Jing Yiran always obeyed him.
Jing Yiran was indeed involved in this matter, but he didnt kill those 47 men. Atleast he didnt kill them all.
Someone else did it so that he could hate Jing Yiran even more and the two brothers could fight each other fiercely and irrationally.
Jing Yichen was certain that the person behind this incident was the same one behind Zhang Rongs death. It was the best nned conspiracy Jing Yichen had ever run into so far.
The rival was cautious and discreet. He was taking advantage of all conflicting angles to suit his purpose.
Chapter 316 - I Didn’t Kill Shen Lingbing (Part One)
Chapter 316: I Didnt Kill Shen Lingbing (Part One)
Tang Yun was still shedding tears. She sounded sincere and pathetic.
Jing Yichen knew pretty well that Tang Yun was not the murderer.
She was taken advantage of, or she had been willing to be taken advantage of.
She sacrificed her own child because she wanted Shangguan Ning to leave him rather than make him marry her. The man behind Tang Yun knew pretty well that Tang Yun couldnt possibly be ady of Family Jing.
The rival had taken so many roundabouts because he wanted Jing Yichen to be a lonely man whom everyone would turn against and leave him.
Who would be the next target?
Jing Zhongxiu?
But the rival had underestimated him!
Was he as stupid as Jing Yiran?
A simr method had been used once and now it was being used again. It seemed that the rival was not that smart.
Jing Yichen nced at Tang Yun and interrupted her non-stop crying. You can leave now. I will take back everything I have given you. Take care.
After saying so, he turned around and left the ce.
Tang Yun was suspicious. She was even moreplicated than the rival behind the scene.
In the evening, Jing Yichen went back to Family Jing and visited the small vi where Jing Yiran lived.
Jing Yiran was almost healed. It didnt hurt any longer when he got up from the bed. But most of the time he was still lying in bed. He didnt want to move around.
Seeing Jing Yichen entering the room, he got startled and then sneered. Ha, Elder Master is free to visit me now? So unexpected! So your American lover couldnt chain you? Or your little wife detests you already?
I am here to tell you that you will answer for the 47 men you killed. Jing Yichen looked cold, totally unmoved by what Jing Yiran said.
Jing Yiran, on the other hand, frowned.
What 47 men? Exin!
Ignoring what he said, Jing Yichen walked away.
The reason why he came here was because he wanted to tell Jing Yiran that he had be the scapegoat and because he wanted to tell the man behind his back that he had been trapped and that his fight would get increasingly fierce.
After Jing Yichen left, Jing Yiran made a call and then left home despite the injuries.
Half an hourter in the office of Deputy President of Family Jis Enterprise, Jing Yiran grabbed hold of Ji Bos cor and bellowed furiously, You made me a scapegoat, again.
Suffocated, Ji Bo puffed up his cheeks.
Are you mental, Jing Yiran? Let go of me!
Jing Yiran threw him back to the chair and snarled. I work with you not to be your scapegoat. Jing Yichen must die, but not now when he is so angry that he will kill me first. I havent questioned you about your leaking of the secret and now you have killed Jing Yichens men so that I became the scapegoat again.
Ji Bo smoothed the crease on his shirt and frowned. Thats part of the n. The fewer men there are, the better. I already exined to you about the secret leaking. I went to Jing Yichen because I wanted to gain his trust, thats all! Our enterprise is coborating with Jingsheng in the area of finance. I have already retreated in business just to gain his trust, so that I can take control of Jingsheng in the future.
You are the Second Master of Family Jing. You better note and visit me often. It is going to look very suspicious. Also, you must work hard to gain more shares of Jingsheng, so that we can coborate both from inside and outside to make sure Jing Yichen is alone. Our goal is exactly the same and you need to stop suspecting me if you want to work with me. We will be dragged down if you repeatedly suspect our coboration!
Ji Bo always felt shadowed in front of Jing Yichen, because he felt that everything he thought could be seen through, by Jing Yichen.
But in front of Jing Yiran, he felt somehow superior.
He was one of the heirs of Family Ji and had been systematically trained and cultivated, totally different from Jing Yiran, who was just a love child.
Most people didnt understand the difference between Jing Yiran and Jing Yichen, but as one of the heirs of Family Ji, Ji Bo knew it well.
Jing Yichen didnt possess any air as a wealthy man. He was sensitive and sharp, physically and psychologically stronger than ordinary people.
But Jing Yiran had all the drawbacks and ws of a wealthy man. He couldnt possibly be a match against Ji Bo who had been trained in the same way.
Therefore, Ji Bo started to treat Jing Yiran less and less politely. The more they worked together, the less intimidated he felt about this man with the title of Second Master of Family Jing.
That had made Ji Bo take the initiative in coboration with Jing Yiran who was getting less and less important!
Ji Bo had never thought about taking Family Jing down before. So when Jing Yichen made Family Ji pay apensation of tens of billions, what Family Ji could do was to act like a ughtered pig.
But now, Ji Bo was getting more and more confident.
Jing Yichen had far too many enemies, especially a good brother like Jing Yiran. If Family Jing could still stand together, then Family Jing would just be way too lucky.
Jing Yiran didnt like the way Ji Bo talked with him. Few people in A City would dare to talk with him in amanding tone.
He had never considered Ji Bo as someone important. Although Family Ji was also one of the top-notch wealthiest families, it was still far from Family Jing. As long as he took control of all of Family Jings properties, a single Ji Bo would mean nothing.
But Jing Yiran still needed this external force. Without him, he would not be able to get theplete inheritance from Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen must die!
Jing Yiran would be the owner of Family Jing!
But he had to watch for Ji Bo too, in case he was ripped off by him at the end.
Jing Yiran argued with Ji Bo and left angrily without reaching apromise. The moment he came to the living room, Jing Zhongxiu showed four pictures to him.
Pick one from them, be ready for the engagement next month.
Jing Yirans emotions burst because of what he said.
With veins popping out on the forehead, fists clenched, he pressed down the impulse of tearing apart the four pictures. Then he picked out one randomly and said calmly, This one will do.
Jing Zhongxiu nodded and then went to the study upstairs.
A touch of viciousness shed across Jing Yirans eyes as he looked at the picture. Then he left.
One monthter, three days before the engagement party of Second Master of Family Jing, his fiance, thedy of the prestigious Family Shen, Shen Lingbing died of sudden illness.
Chapter 317 - I Didn’t Kill Shen Lingbing (Part Two)
Chapter 317: I Didnt Kill Shen Lingbing (Part Two)
Jing Zhongxiu got extremely angry.
He kicked Jing Yiran meters away and Jing Yiran would have either died or be badly injured if Mo Lan had not stopped him!
Family Shen is one of the most powerful wings of Family Jing and they have had a rtionship with us for decades. Now all is ruined by you!
Jing Zhongxius face shrunk and voice froze. If you intend to make Family Jing fade away, then get out of this ce as soon as possible. You are not my son!
Jing Yiran couldnt breath until a long whileter after he was kicked. He pushed Mo Lan who was helping him on his feet with hands over the chest and said, I didnt kill her!
Then how did Shen Lingbing die? Sickness? What sickness was it so that she died before she could be taken to the hospital? Who else would want her dead apart from you?
Jing Yiran stood leaning against the wall. I only wanted her to be sick enough as not to get off the bed. But I didnt want her dead. It was her own destiny that she had to die!
The father and the son were arguing when Jing Yichen walked in with a cold expression.
Dad, I have something to tell you.
Pressing down the fury inside his heart, Jing Zhongxiu turned around and walked into the study.
Jing Yichen didnt spare a look towards Jing Yiran before he went upstairs to the study with him.
The father and the son talked for more than an hour in the study. When Jing Yichen came out of the study, he saw Jing Yiran still in the living room. Hearing the footsteps, Jing Yiran looked up instantly.
Jing Yichen came to his side steadily and coldly said, Congrattions, your method was very effective. Dad will never set up a fiance for you ever, in case more of Family Jings men are gone and more rivals are set up!
Jing Yiran didnt like the way Jing Yichen looked down at him. He got up and his casual look was gonepletely. I didnt kill Shen Lingbing!
Talk with Shen Jinjun instead. He will be here tomorrow. Shen Jinjun was Shen Lingbings father and the master of Family Shen.
Having said the words, Jing Yichen walked out and then drove home.
It was Shangguan Nings birthday today and he had wanted to give Shangguan Ning a surprise. But when the incident happened, he had to handle the stress from all aspects, leaving him no time to keep herpany. Jing Yichen was feeling very guilty.
When he came home, Shangguan Ning came to him instantly and asked anxiously, How is it now?
Shen Lingbing was found dead this morning. Jing Yichen had gone to the site as soon as he heard the news. Many hours had passed and the media had been publishing reports crazily and imed that Shen Lingbing was killed by Jing Yiran, because he was not satisfied with the marriage arrangement done by his father.
A month ago, Family Jing had already announced that Shen Lingbing was going to get engaged with Jing Yiran. Although the engagement ceremony had not happened yet, she was already part of Family Jing. So Jing Yichen had to be on the premises when something happened to her.
Jing Zhongxiu couldnt be the one to deal with this matter, nor could Jing Yiran. So Jing Yichen was the only one left to handle it.
Family Shen was not in the list of top 10 families of A City, but it was still a powerful family with years of history behind them. The family had been an important helping hand for Family Jing and they had shared a very close rtionship in the past.
So when the daughter of Family Shen died unexpectedly, Family Jing was naturally influenced tremendously.
Shangguan Ning had been worried that the incident would reflect badly on Family Jing and that Jingsheng Enterprise would also be influenced too.
Jing Yichen swept Shangguan Ning into his arms and kissed her forehead softly as he said gently, Baby, Happy Birthday, I am so sorry not to have kept youpany on this important day.
The look of anxiety turned into the look of happiness on Shangguan Nings face. She took hold of Jing Yichens handsome yet tired face in her hands and said with a soft voice, It is okay, you dont need to be sorry. Compared to the dead one, we are lucky to still be alive.
Shen Lingbing was someone Shangguan Ning knew of. They were not friends, but she had held a good impression of this elegantdy who possessed a strong sense of family responsibility. Shangguan Ning was tremendously impacted by her death.
She was not in a mood to celebrate her birthday.
She felt very guilty inside her heart. If I had not rmended her to you back then, maybe she would not have died.
Jing Yichen held Shangguan Nings hand and said softly, It has nothing to do with you. Even if Shen Lingbing was not dead today, there would have been someone else. The rival aims at Family Jing, and as long as Jing Yiran was engaged, his fiance would certainly die.
Someone aimed at Family Jing?
Shangguan Ning was sensitive about something he said in the words. She was astonished. So Jing Yiran isnt the murderer?
The media reports used Jing Yiran as the murderer with strong evidence. Even Shen Lingbings parents had cried in front of the camera, using Jing Yiran of the murder of their daughter.
Jing Yichen said lightly, No, it is not him. I told dad about that today at Family Jing. But we have no sufficient evidence that can remove Jing Yiran as the suspect. The rival has set up a scenario so perfectly that even Zheng Jing couldnt find a w.
All the evidence pointed at Jing Yiran. After Zhen Jing and his men inspected the crime scene, he told Jing Yichen that Shen Lingbing had definitely been killed and Jing Yiran was the only suspect.
The crime scene was perfect, and it was just because of it being so obviously perfect, it made Jing Yichen and Zheng Jing feel that something weird was going on. They both suspected that the murderer was someone else.
Jing Yiran may not be lying. He really didnt kill Shen Lingbing.
ording to Zhen Jing, it might seem reasonable if Jing Yiran wanted to kill Shen Lingbing. But after a careful contemtion, it could also be argued that the motivation was not strong enough. Killing might cater to Jing Yirans usual style of being vicious, yet it was not reasonable. Jing Yiran could have many other methods to avoid marrying Shen Lingbing. Killing her would be the least advantageous method for him to use, leaving a tremendous negative impact on Family Jing.
Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief inside her heart after hearing that Jing Yiran was not the murderer.
She didnt like Jing Yiran, but she always thought that he would never kill someone innocent. He could torment an innocent man, but he would never kill him.
He knew pretty well that killing didnt solve problems instead problems erupted when someone died.
Jing Yichen had not wanted Shanggaun Ning to be influenced by this incident. He exined briefly and then took her to the living room, where he took out the specially made cake from the fridge and showed it to her.
He had nned a huge celebration for her birthday because that was her first birthday after they got married and it should have been grand and formal.
Chapter 318 - Birthday
Chapter 318: Birthday
But what happened todaypletely ruined Jing Yichens original n.
Jing Yichen had wanted to make an enormous cake with 27yers, symbolizing her 27th birthday. He had also booked a luxurious restaurant where he would celebrate the birthday for her.
This cake was not big. But Shangguan Ning was already satisfied.
She was not a woman who cared much about material things. For her, it was already the biggest happiness that Jing Yichen was with her on her birthday.
She was a woman easily satisfied.
Jing Yichen lit the candle and said softly, Baby, make a wish.
Shangguan Ning put her palms together, closed her eyes and said only one sentence inside her heart C I wish that we could live happily forever.
Jing Yichen noticed that she opened her eyes quickly and blew off the candles. He didnt ask her what wish she had made because he could guess it. She was a simple woman and the wish that she made must have been ordinary as well.
He took out an exquisite box and gave it to Shangguan Ning. Baby, here is your birthday present.
Shangguan Ning opened it and got surprised by what was inside.
It was a rose diamond asrge as a longan, clear and beautifully cut. It twinkled brightly against the light.
What a huge diamond and what a rare color! Shangguan Ning had seen something like this for the first time.
How pretty! She let out a surprised sigh.
Seeing her so fascinated, Jing Yichen felt really happy. He took the ring and slipped it into her finger. It suits you well.
This must have been a very precious diamond ring, one that couldnt be bought just with money. Jing Yichen must have made a lot of effort in buying it.
Shangguan Nings heart was full.
Jing Yichen spoiled her so much and tried everything he could, to buy her the most precious treasures.
Diamonds symbolize eternal love. Seeing therge diamond on her fingers, Shangguan Ning said with tears. I am very happy, Yichen, thank you so much. It is the happiest birthday that I have ever experienced!
Thank you so much for giving me such great love.
My life started to mean something after I met you.
It was a peaceful night. The incidence of Shen Lingbings death, which had shocked the entire A City didnt seem to have influenced this cozy home.
It was Zhao Anans birthday the following day, one day after Nings.
Shangguan Ning went to Zhao Anans home with presents and soon Zheng Lun reached there as well.
But Jing Yichen, Mu Qing and Zheng Jing went to Family Jing, instead. Shen Jinjun and his elder son Shen Lingyue were paying a visit to Jing Zhongxiu there.
The incident of Shen Lingbings death was getting more and more fierce. Family Jing was the biggest victim, with stock prices falling tremendously and their reputation getting impacted.
Therefore, Shangguan Ning and her friends didnt have a huge celebration for Zhao Anans birthday, either.
Zhao Anan didnt care much about birthday celebrations. Instead, she said to Shangguan Ning concernedly, So scumbag Jing Yiran is not the murderer? That bastard, always causing mess for my cousin to clear up for him. My cousin must have been impacted again this time.
Shangguan Ning nodded and said in a low voice, It is not Jing Yiran, that is what Yichen says. Zheng Jing thinks so too.
Zheng Lun nodded. Her voice sounded gentle as usual. I dont think that Uncle Shen would think Family Jing are the murderers.
She was on the crime scene yesterday. Zheng Jing had her around wherever he went. Zheng Lun was not so scared at the scene where it was not full of blood.
She was not that timid after going out with Zheng Jing so many times. Her personality had improved tremendously.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan looked at her in surprise after hearing what she said.
Both of them thought that Shen Jinjun had gone to Family Jing to ask for an exnation. But Zheng Lun said that he also believed Family Jing for being innocent.
Zheng Lun had no idea how to exin. She just had a hunch.
When I saw Uncle Shen yesterday, his eyes were bloodshot, but he was very courteous towards Master Jing. So dont worry, Family Shen wouldnt cause trouble.
When Zheng Lun talked, she felt a sense of happiness in her heart.
She didnt know that one day she would be able to talk so confidently after being a timid woman for a long time. She had grown more mature staying by her brothers side.
Zheng Luns wordsrgely consoled Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan.
The three women started to cook in the kitchen for Zhao Anans birthday celebration.
Zhao Anans servants had been sick and hadnt beening to avoid infecting Zhao Anan.
Shangguan Ning had rarely cooked as a young woman. After marrying Jing Yichen, she cooked even less. So she had no idea where to start, standing in the kitchen.
There would be six people sitting for lunch. They had brought the ingredients and now they needed to cook.
Shangguan Ning didnt know how to cook and Zhao Anan, who was born a wealthy girl, had never been to the kitchen.
Shangguan Ning knew how to use the stove to cook instant noodles and boil frozen dumplings. But Zhao Anan didnt even know that much.
Zheng Lun, who had grown up pampered as a princess, only put on clothes and ate ready made food. She had no idea how to use the stove either.
The three of them exchanged a look with one another and then walked out of the kitchen, feeling depressed. They had no idea what to do with the vegetables and meat.
Ning, I thought that you were a virtuous woman. But you cant even cook! So dumb you are! You just look like an elegant woman in vain. Zhao Anan poked at Shangguan Ning next to her, teasing.
What does cooking have anything to do with charisma? You cant even tell Chinese cabbage from ordinary cabbage. You are worse than me forughing at me.
Shangguan Ning rolled eyes at her and started to stuff the chips into her mouth as she leaned onto the sofa, cozily.
Hearing them teasing each other, Zheng Lunughed. None of us can cook, so what should we do about lunch? What about getting my chef to cook for us?
Family Zheng lived far from Zhao Anans home so it was not a good idea.
Zhao Anan shook her head and took the chips from Shangguan Ning as she mumbled, It is okay, just wait. When my cousin and Mu Qinge back, they can cook for us. Both of them can cook well, especially my cousin. But if he doesnt want to... Ill ask Mu Qing to do so. Just leave it all to Mu Qing. He has learned how to make healthy food as part of his education. So food made by him will be tasty and nutritious.
Chapter 319 - Men Who Cooked
Chapter 319: Men Who Cooked
Zheng Luns eyes widened. She nodded instantly. Yes, yes that is true! We can wait until my brother and yours return. My brother cooks well too. We are not going to starve.
Hearing that the three men could cook, Shangguan Ning felt assured and didnt give any thought to the lunch.
What the three women had not realized was that they were not kind at all. They expected men to cook for their sake after handling the stressful incident.
At around 12 noon, three handsome men with different temperaments opened the door and walked in.
It was Zhao Anans birthday and both Shangguan Ning and Zheng Lun had bought her cakes. Mu Qing had one more with him as he walked in as well. He had made that cake himself.
They were hungry and it was Zhao Anans birthday. So no one mentioned anything about Shen Lingbing.
Mu Qing gave the cake to Zhao Anan and said smilingly, Happy Birthday, Anan!
Zhao Anan took the cake and thanked him delightedly rather than give him a cold face. Mu Qing waspletely startled by that.
He was used to being tormented by Zhao Anan, and not so ustomed to being treated so gently by her.
Zheng Jing also said happy birthday to her. Only Jing Yichen had a calm face and said nothing. He went inside expressionlessly and sat down next to Shangguan Ning.
Everyone except for Shangguan Ning was already used to Jing Yichens coldness. He treated everyone in this way.
If he congratted Zhao Anan on her birthday, everyone would get very surprised.
He always thought that these were useless words. Shangguan Ning knew of his personality too, but he didnt expect that he could be so stingy towards his own cousin.
She held Jing Yichens arms and red at him. You must congratte Anan on her birthday. We are going to sing birthday song for herter as well! Say it now!
Jing Yichen could not say anything like this to anybody except for Shangguan Ning, not even to Zhao Anan!
Singing a birthday song?
How ridiculous? He was Jing Yichen. He was a cold and distant man!
He had never sung a song since he was young.
Zhao Anan had never expected Jing Yichen to pass on any greetings to her. He hadnt even said anything on grandmothers birthday. Jing Yichen might never havee here but for Shangguan Ning.
He had a cold and distant personality who regarded birthdays as nothing special. He didnt even celebrate his own, let alone others.
She suddenly got curious about how Jing Yichen had celebrated Shangguan Nings birthday the night before. Had he been silent throughout the entire night as well?
She thought for a while and chuckled. Ning, dont bother. I am 27 years old and he has never celebrated birthday for me even once. Of course, I have never celebrated his, either. I already feel that its a good thing that he is here today. I dont want to force him away.
Jing Yichen changed the topic and said calmly, You three have made nothing since the morning?
That was the million yuan question. The three women deted like ttened balloons.
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing stared at them in surprise, then shook their heads before walking towards the kitchen.
Sigh, we have indeed spoiled these women. They would definitely starve to death if we are not at home. Mu Qing chuckled as he shook his head. He then proficiently rolled up the sleeves of his azure coloured shirt, went through the ingredients in the kitchen and got ready to cook.
Zhao Anan followed behind and snapped, No way! We ate chips and we are not at all hungry. Also, Ning and Lun have brought cakes and we wont starve to death!
She was trying to put up a brave front but was somehow unsure inside her heart. She had never been able to do anything rted to the daily life skills.
Seeing Mu Qing washing and cutting the vegetables, mixing the spices, switching on the stove and making the food quickly, she somehow felt that Mu Qing was really excellent at this moment!
She always thought that Mu Qing looked best when he was dressed in a doctors gown and exining theplicated diseases to patients in professional terms or when he saved one life after another.
But now, she found that he, as a cook could be so charming as well.
Was it because she was hungry?
Mu Qing had noticed the change in Zhao Anans eyes. The corner of lip lifted up but he pretended to notice nothing. He continued to cook. He knew Zhao Anan well C the best thing was not to talk, otherwise this quiet Zhao Anan would start cursing him the moment he spoke.
Before the vegetables were brought on the dish, Mu Qing offered a lotus root to Zhao Anan in a seemingly nonchnt way. Try if it is okay.
Actually, Mu Qing was very experienced with seasoning. He just wanted to get a piece into Zhao Anans mouth.
Immersed in the admiration towards Mu Qing, Zhao Anan opened her mouth and widened her eyes, Mu, you cook very well!
Of course!
He had been practicing for too long.
A smile hovered over Mu Qings face. He washed off the wok happily and got ready for other dishes.
Zhao Anan followed closely behind. Seeing him peeling off the eggnts and cut them into slices, she also wanted to give it a try. Mu, teach me as well, I want to make food too!
Mu Qing didnt want Zhao Anan to take the knife. He was worried that she would cut her hands rather than the eggnts.
He was a doctor, but he couldnt allow Zhao Anan to get injured. But as long as Zhao Anan was with him, he would agree with whatever she proposed.
It was just cutting vegetables. All she needed to do was be a bit careful. Even if she screwed up the dish, he would eat the entire thing alone.
Zhao Anan held the knife in her hands and started to cut under Mu Qings instruction.
Mu Qing took her hands whilst standing behind her back. He guided her carefully.
It was just slicing eggnts and wasnt a difficult job! Zhao Anan learned fast, yet the eggnts turned out to be dices rather than slices. Also, she cut the vegetables way too slow.
When the two eggnts were done, she showed them off to Mu Qing excitedly, Look, I can cook too!
Ohdy, the eggnts were still uncooked, you just cut them into pieces. It was far from being able to cook.
Mu Qing chuckled inside his heart. But he looked very serious on the surface. He praised blindly, Yes, Anan can cook now. Excellent!
As long as Zhao Anan was happy, nothing else mattered!
Chapter 320 - Love Near-fetched (Part One)
Chapter 320: Love Near-fetched (Part One)
The ingredients at Zhao Anans home had been bought by the servants of Family Zhao. Zhao Zhao knew that her daughter was celebrating her birthday and that a bunch of her friends would be there. So she had things delivered in the morning but she didnte there herself because she didnt want to disturb the young peoples party.
But she hadnt known that Zhao Anans servants were sick, otherwise she would have sent the chef alongwith the ingredients.
Zhao Zhao had given a very generous present for her daughters birthday. She not only gave Zhao Anan arge ne of rare Buddhism pearls with the blessing of a master monk but also sent expensive ruby nes for Shangguan Ning and Zheng Lun. She had given Shangguan Ning and Zheng Lun lovely presents, but what she had given to her daughter was both expensive and full of the most fervent wish of a mother C she hoped that the pearls could bless her daughter so that she could be safe and happy.
Zhao Anan had the pearl ne worth millions over her neck when she started to help around excitedly.
Mu Qing was very happy being next to her.
But when Mu Qing was helping Zhao Anan, Zheng Jing was not free either.
The ingredients which Family Zhao delivered were fresh andprehensive, including everything such as fish, meat, vegetables and other seafood.
He looked through the ingredients and then pulled out a fresh fish, washed it and ced it upon the cutting board. He started to pull off the bones carefully. Zheng Lun had been fond of fish since she was young. As long as fish was avable, she would be very happy.
Zheng Jing had a square shaped face with a straight long bridged nose. But it was his eyes which held a profound expression in them always.
He was tall and due to years of exercise and training, he was muscr and strong. He was wearing his navy blue uniform due to his prior visit to Family Jing. The uniform made him look smarter than his usual handsome self.
Zheng Jing had graduated from the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst which was established by the joint forces of Royal Military Academy and Royal Military College. It was one of the top four military schools in the world, as prestigious as West Point where high quality officers were cultivated every year.
Jing Yichen had studied at the Military Academy earlier and that was how he had gotten to know Zheng Jing. But Jing Yichen finished the entire course in one year and left after that.
Zheng Jing graduated from the Academy with excellent marks as well. He was offered to be amander of ground forces the moment he returned home, but Zheng Jing turned down the offer and returned to A City where he became an excellent homicide policeman.
No one understood why he had made that choice because he was too capable to just be an ordinary policeman in A City.
But his parents supported him. In this way, their son would not need to stay in the army far away from them. That made them very happy and they didnt care about how high the position could have been.
Zheng Lun was the happiest when Zheng Jing had returned.
Seeing the unconcealed joy on the beautifully face of his sister, Zheng Jing had felt that everything was worth the while.
The only reason why he turned down the offer of being amander of ground forces and returned to A City to be an ordinary policeman in A City was because of his sister, Zheng Lun.
But this naive Zheng Lun was never going to understand what Zheng Jing had given up for her.
What she knew was that her brother was right beside her.
Wonderful smell of food arose in the kitchen. The room had be steamy because of the food being cooked.
Zheng Lun was totally immersed in the way her brother behaved. Zheng Jing looked rather serious when he didnt talk.
Zheng Lun, however, felt that her brother was the gentlest man who was never fierce.
He was gentle when he talked with her. He was gentle when he picked the dresses and shoes for her. He was even gentle even when he scolded her.
When he was making the food at this moment, he was gentle as well.
She knew that he was making the fish for her, because he himself preferred beef and the thick soup of rib bones.
But what Zheng Jing didnt know was that Zheng Lun liked fish because of him.
Because Zheng Jing would pick the bones for her very carefully every time they ate fish. He wouldnt give the meat to her until all the bones were gone. He didnt need to do anything with any other dishes, so fish was the only dish that could help Zheng Lun to have more interaction with her brother.
Zheng Lun couldnt stop herself from behaving in this manner. She loved fish, but she loved Zheng Jing more. She loved him so much that she had almost gone crazy and lost herself.
Zheng Jing had made fish dishes for his sister many times, so he was very proficient in dealing with the meat. In order to make sure that the bones wouldnt bother his sister, he would remove all the bones before putting the fish into the pot.
Seeing him do so now for her, Zheng Lun couldnt help but get excited. She knew that she mustnt fall for her own brother, but she just couldnt control her emotions. Her heart was spinning out of control and her love was getting stronger and deeper.
She could see nobody else apart from him.
Zheng Lun stared at him intensely.
Due to his profession, Zheng Jing was attuned to all that happened around him. He had already noticed that Zheng Lun was staring at him in this way.
Zheng Jing let out a soft sigh inside his heart. Oh, my silly sister. Do you know how much self control do I have to exert to hold myself back from looking at you?
Lun, get me a scallion.
If his sister stared at him in such a transfixed way, everyone else would notice it really soon, as well.
He didnt want anyone else to misunderstand his sister, so he asked her to help around. She would be distracted if she had something to keep herself busy.
Ah? Zheng Lun got startled and then came back to her senses after hearing what her brother said. Oh, okay, I will get one for you!
She turned her back towards Zheng Jing. He used this opportunity to look at her slender shape with care and gentleness in his eyes.
Zheng Lun liked wearing dresses, because Zheng Jing had once mentioned that she looked like a beautiful princess in a dress. So from that moment on, she only wore dresses, no matter how cold it was.
Chapter 321 - Love Near-fetched (Part Two)
Chapter 321: Love Near-fetched (Part Two)
Zheng Lun was wearing a yellow long sleeved dress, with cors andce at the hem. There was a thin white belt around the waist, which enhanced her figure beautifully. The hem of the dress reached the knees, showing her nicely shaped calves.
She was standing there with her hair down, searching inside the grocery bags one after another. Zheng Jing found the scene enchanting.
Zheng Jing knew pretty well that his sister was an extremely beautiful girl. Any man who met her even once would be attracted to her. They tended to look at her with caring eyes, wanting to approach her in some way.
She was a girl who could easily make men want to protect her. Everyone except for the distant Jing Yichen, would consider her as a rare gem. Even Mu Qing had praised her as being the angel from heaven.
He knew that Mu Qing spoke highly of Zheng Lun, because he appreciated her as a beautiful girl. But he had no romantic thoughts towards Zheng Lun. His mind was totally upon Zhao Anan.
But other men didnt have such honest look as Mu Qing. They tended to look at her with lust in their eyes, making Zheng Jing extremely ufortable.
Therefore, he barely brought Zheng Lun out, because every time they were out, men woulde to her and flirt with her despite the fact that her fierce looking brother was next to her.
She was too pure and innocent a girl who had led a sheltered life. She would never understand what those men looked at her for.
But he had overprotected his sister so much that his sister almost... admired him.
Zheng Jing was more rational and calmer than Zheng Lun. He was a mature man who knew what to do and what not to do. It was impossible between him and his sister. Zheng Lun could only be his sister his entire life.
Therefore, he started to take Zheng Lun out to socialize. He took her to his meetings, trying to show his sister that there were many other excellent men in this world for her to choose from.
He couldnt possibly keep her sheltered throughout her entire life. She needed to have her own life and her own family.
He had realized his real feelings towards his sister and it ached his heart making it bleed. But however much it hurt, he had to do what he was supposed to do. He couldnt ruin his sisters lifetime happiness.
But those whom he had thought of as nice among his brotherhood turned out to be worthless.
Some were too loud, some too hot-tempered, others too discreet and some not as gentle. He was a policeman and the men in his brotherhood belonged to the same profession. They were excellent in their jobs and diligent. But... none of them were gentle enough!
Those men who turned up for the blind dates also turned out to be unworthy. They were either too wild or simply liked fooling around. Some who were rtively honest and obedient turned out to be way too silly. Zheng Jing had almost gone through all the unmarried men in A City and had not found even one suitable guy. Maybe it was because he was being overly critical.
He had thought that Mu Qing might be an excellent candidate, but Mu Qing was still hung up on Zhao Anan although they had been separated for so long. He totally gave him up after the couple reunited. Zheng Jing had never considered Jing Yichen, even when he was unmarried. Jing Yichen was not an ordinary man, but a king standing on the top of the pyramid, totally unfit for his little, timid sister.
Zheng Jing was troubled. he had gone through all the unmarried men in A city. He couldnt possibly marry her sister off to another city or province, right?
It wouldnt be possible. Neither he nor his parents werent willing to do this. Zheng Lun was their treasure whom they protected with all they could. Her mother cut her nails even now and didnt want her to be wronged or go through any bitterness. If she was married off to another city other, his mother would definitely kill him.
Zheng Lun had too many mixed emotions inside him, but he showed nothing on the face. He looked calm and quiet.
When Zheng Lun found the scallion and pulled out one, she mumbled inside her heart, This must be a scallion, isnt it? I remember that it looks like this.
She turned around and gave the scallion to Zheng Jing. Here you are, Brother, the scallion.
Zheng Jing looked at the scallion which his sister had given him and found it amusing. But soon his heart softened. Silly girl, these are garlic seedlings, not scallion. Go and continue to find. Get me the right thing.
He wanted to raise his hands to touch his sisters head but withdrew it instead.
Oh really? Zheng Lun got confused. She tilted her head and stuck out her tongue in a cute way as she said softly, Then wait a second, Brother, I will go and find it.
She was always very outgoing and happy in front of Zheng Jing. Soon, she turned around with another green vegetable. Brother, am I right this time?
Yes, you are. Zheng Jing smiled and took it from her.
Zheng Jingsrge hands grazed her fingers during the exchange.
Zheng Luns heart skipped a beat at this moment. She could feel the scorching warmth in the middle of her brothers palm, making her almost lose her breath.
Zheng Jing moved away his hand, pretending as if nothing had happened. Their fingers parted instantly.
Lun, go and get a garlic, that you recognize, right? Zheng Jing had a calm look on him and pointed at Zheng Lun, with a smile.
Zheng Lun recovered from her reaction and nodded happily as she looked at Zheng Jing. I just learned what it looks like. Brother, you mustntugh at me!
Zheng Jinggughed loudly, If you get me anything else, we would not be able to make the fish on time. The lunch will turn into dinner!
Zheng Lunughed too. I ate potato chips, I am not hungry!
She said as she turned to search for the garlic in the pile of ingredients.
Hearing that Zheng Jing was in need of garlic, Mu Qing wanted to give him the other half which he had used. But Zhao Anan took it from him and tossed it into the dustbin. She mumbled in his ears, Dont look around, just cook food!
Mu Qing felt helplessly. When did he look around? His eyes had always been on her. Who else would he look at, with her around?
It was just garlic. Why was he used of looking around? How could he ignore his friends requirement?
Chapter 322 - Love Near-fetched (Part Three)
Chapter 322: Love Near-fetched (Part Three)
Since Zhao Anan had already tossed the garlic into the dustbin, Mu Qing had to pretend that he didnt have any of it left with him. He couldnt possibly say to Zheng Jing that he had some which his wife didnt want him to give away.
It was okay to trick friends, but Mu Qing was not going to trick his wife!
Also, Zhao Anan talked to him in such a bossy way making him feel as if she regarded him as her man. That greatly pleased Mu Qing warming his heart.
He picked a piece of meat with eggnts and delivered it to Zhao Anans lips. Try the eggnt, that is the first dish you made, wonderful!
Zhao Anan ate as she smiled brightly, not caring that Mu Qing had tried the food with this very pair of chopsticks earlier.
Very good, very good! It is tasty! I didnt know that I could cook so well. Why didnt I notice that before?
Ohdy, it was not you who cooked, it was me, okay!!
What you had done was cut the eggnts whilst I was the one that did the woking and seasoning. What you did was to scream about the fire, the oil, all the time standing next to me.
But Mu Qing didnt say what he had in mind. As long as Zhao Anan was pleased by what he made, he was very happy.
He hadnt had such a harmonious moment with Zhao Anan for a long time.
She had behaved cruelly with him just to push him away in the past. After Zhao Anan broke up with him, he had thought about marrying some other woman. If he couldnt marry Zhao Anan, it would not matter whomever he married. As long as the woman would bring good things for Family Mu, it wouldnt matter even if she was ugly.
In Mu Qings eyes, there were only two kinds of women C Zhao Anan and the other women.
But now when Zhao Anan was right next to him, he swore that he was never going to let her go away ever again.
He was definitely going to find the perfect solution to cure her disease. He was a top notch doctor and his family had been devoted to medicine for a long time. He was gifted and had read a lot of medical books. He was best at solvingplicated issues.
He wasnt able to fix bulbs or decode aplicated code. He couldnt even speak a thirdnguage apart from English and Chinese. But he was a doctor who could bring the dead back to life!
Mu Qing felt very lucky that he was a doctor. If he were not, Zhao Anan might have already gone away.
The cancer cells spread very fast. If he had not noticed that so early, Zhao Anan would have needed to get her womb removed at least, or she would have been given a very short lifespan.
But now, ten years had passed since the cancer cells first spread in her body.
Although the disease returned during the decade, yet it had been a great medical achievement that saved her life so that she could stand happily and healthily right in front of him.
She had lived through the first decade, and she could live through one more decade, two more decades or even five more decades.
During the past ten years, Mu Qing had spent endless efforts and a lot of money on studying cancer cells. In fact a cancer cell studying unit had been established under his guidance at the hospital. They worked day and night just to ovee worlds difficult most issue and he attended the prestigious cancer forum every year with Mu Wensheng. With his outstanding gift and endless efforts, he was approaching his goal gradually.
The cancer control center of Germany had killed the cancer cells in Zhao Anans body twice through thebination of chemotherapy and drugs, so that she recovered.
If the Germans could do it, Mu Qing believed that he could make it happen too.
Zhao Anans mother and grandmother had hoped that she marries him, because he was a top notch doctor who could keep Zhao Anan safe from all illnesses.
That was Mu Qings responsibility and it was his honor too.
He hoped that the woman he loved could keep himpany until they were old and that he could keep her healthy and happy throughout their entire life.
Mu Qing felt thronged with emotions, but Zhao Anan was dancing around without much load in mind. She carried a te of food to the living room and wanted Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen to taste the food which she had made.
Ning, try and see if it tastes good. I made it!
Shangguan Ning looked at the minced meat with eggnts on the te in her hand in disbelief. Did you really make it, Anan? It looks very good. You are going to be an excellent chef.
She said as she put a piece into her mouth. Tasty! It is so tasty!
Zhao Anan smiled so broadly that her eyes narrowed down to slits. Haha, I am good, am I not? Mu was just instructing standing next to me and I could make such tasty food. I can even open a restaurant tomorrow!
Shangguan Ning smiled too. Of course, your restaurant will be thronged with guests if you are the chef. But I hope that you can cook as well as you did today.
Shangguan Ning was not silly. She was well aware of Zhao Anans culinary skills. She was a woman who couldnt tell sugar from salt and it would be a total disaster if she was the chef. She had realized that Zhao Anan couldnt possibly have made the dish and that she must have been an assistant to Mu Qing C she had simply taken credit for his creation.
Overexcited, Zhao Anan never grasped what Shangguan Ning meant. She carried the te to Jing Yichen. Try, I made it, very tasty!
Without lifting the eyes, Jing Yichen said calmly, I have a high pte. I cant taste a dish like this. You better get back to the kitchen with your te.
Zhao Anan red at him and mumbled when he was not paying attention. Always so critical, just like a spoiled Master! I didnt see you picking on the grass roots and the insects my uncle forced you to eat. Bah, better let you starve to death!
Jing Yichen had a pair of sharp ears. He looked up, frightening Zhao Anan who dashed off to the kitchen instantly.
It was a lively time in the kitchen and people standing there felt happy inside.
Shangguan Ning looked at the couple who were busy in the kitchen through the ss door. No one had asked Jing Yichen to get involved. She had thought that Jing Yichen should offer to make at least a dish rather than leaving everything to Mu Qing and Zheng Jing.
But seeing them two work in such harmony, she felt that she better let her exhausted husband take some rest and eat the food instead.
What Shangguan Ning didnt know was that even if she had asked Jing Yichen to make the food, he would have still been turned down by Zheng Jing and Mu Qing!
Chapter 323 - Love Near-fetched (Part Four)
Chapter 323: Love Near-fetched (Part Four)
Honestly, only Shangguan Ning could make him move whilst no one else dared. They didnt even address him by his full name but courteously called him Master Jing, let alone asking him to cook.
Jing Yichen was Zheng Jing and Mu Qings good friend and leader. Although they spent quite a lot of time together, they still couldnt help but be influenced by his powerful charisma and distant arrogance. That had nothing to do with the background. That was only because Jing Yichen was a man with strong power.
After Jing Yichen frightened off Zhao Anan, he swept his wife into his arms and held her waist softly.
For the very first time, Shangguan Ning didnt resist.
Because her heart was aching.
She heard what Zhao Anan had said.
He had been forced to eat... grass roots and insects by Jing Zhongxiu?
Jing Yichen was perfectly charming, maintained hygiene every single day and ate half done beefsteak and newly ground coffee as well as the most exquisite dishes.
Shangguan Ning couldnt possibly imagine that this man in the white shirt, who was so handsome and distant, could have swallowed down grass root and disgusting insects.
Yichen...
Shangguan Nings voice trembled. She put an emphasis upon Chen so that the word sounded full of love and concern.
Jing Yichen knew her well. The moment she spoke, he immediately understood what she was thinking.
This silly woman was feeling sorry for him again.
That was his past, which he didnt care about much. He had gone through difficulties and had already be used to them.
But her concern for him made him feel unbelievably warm so much so that he didnt feel a twinge of regret when he was reminded of the brutal days of the past.
There was one woman who loved him wholeheartedly and cared about every bit of his past and present.
Ignoring the four people who were busy with cooking in the kitchen, he lifted Shangguan Ning and ced her onto his thighs as he leaned down and covered her soft lips, kissing her intensely.
It is history. Everything is fine now. Just a few insects, nothing serious.
Shangguan Ning flushed. She was a bit embarrassed and unustomed to kissing Jing Yichen in front of others.
But the concern overcame the embarrassment and she caressed Jing Yichens face contours with her fingers. Her eyes were full of affection.
I wontin about you being particr about food any more. We will only eat the best food.
Jing Yichen smiled and covered Shangguan Nings small hands with hisrge one and said calmly, I didnt starve to death under those terrible conditions. Eating was the most important thing of all. But now we are living a good life and of course we must eat the best food. You, especially, must eat the best and the most delicious things so that you can be well prepared to breed the next generation.
He said this in such a natural and serious way that Shangguan Ning felt her heart skipping a beat.
Sitting on his thighs, she leaned into his arms and then said guiltily after a while, Should we go in and help them? It is not proper when they are all busy and we are idling around here.
Not improper. Jing Yichen lowered his head and looked at his wife who was getting more and more adorable.
He said, If they like cooking, just let them be. Mu Qing cooks okay, but I havent eaten Zheng Jings food yet. I cook, but I only cook for you, not for anyone else.
Shangguan Ning felt sweetness spreading inside her heart. She mustered her courage and gave a kiss upon Jing Yichens face. Kiss as an award!
While the couple outside the kitchen was feeling extremely happy, the atmosphere inside the kitchen was delightful as well.
Zhang Anan carried the dish to Zheng Lun and started talking as if Jing Yichen had not brushed her off. Lun, try this eggnt dish I made. It is very tasty. Ning praised me and said that I could be a chef!
Mu Qing burst intoughter and appreciated Shangguan Ning for her dishonest praise. What a good friend she was to praise her for making such a tasty dish although she knew that Zhao Anan had not made it.
Zheng Lun was innocent, so when she saw the dish, she assumed that Zhao Anan really made it. With eyes widened, she let out a voice of admiration before eating, Anan, you are so smart for learning so fast. I cant even tell different vegetables apart!
Having been praised by a beautiful girl, Zhao Anan got very excited. She couldnt help but present the te to Zheng Lun. Try!
Zheng Lun scooped it out with fingers instead of chopsticks.
She smiled brightly as she put the food in her mouth. Anan, you did make a good dish. So tasty! I want to learn to cook too! She wanted to braise the rib bone soup for her brother and made beefsteak for him.
Zhao Anan burst intoughter. Great, lets learn cooking together. Then we can open a luxurious restaurant and be the managers.
Zheng Lun had never thought about opening a restaurant. She grew up in a wealthy family and had never been worried about money. She didnt need to care about anything at home, because her parents and brother had taken care of everything. What she needed to do was to y the piano, paint and live a happy life.
But what Zhao Anan had just proposed, excited her. She also wanted her brother to know that she was capable and could take care of herself as well and that she would not drag him down. She was going to grow up.
Alright, Anan, that is a deal, lets open a restaurant, and bring Ning in as well!
Zhao Anan was just saying that. She was a woman who had only short enthusiasm for some matters, and she had almost forgotten about the western restaurant that she had opened.
But if Zheng Lun was interested, she could do that with her.
Maybe they could really achieve something!
Zhao Anan nodded and smiled. When she saw Zheng Jing smiling, she suddenly came up with an idea and said excitedly, Hey, Zheng Jing, try my dish too. Lun, take some and feed your brother.
She was putting forward a very reasonable request, because Zheng Jings hands were full of fish meat and bones.
It was not weird if a sister fed her brother.
But Zheng Lun was panicking. After hearing what Zhao Anan said, she stiffened. She knew that Zhao Anan was creating an asion for them but she was unwilling to feed her brother in front of so many people.
They had not fed each other for a long time since they grew up.
But Zheng Jing smiled and casually said, Sure, I must try what Chef Zhao has made. Lun, give me arge piece.
Zheng Lun couldnt dy it after Zheng Jing requested for it.
She picked up a dice of eggnt from the te and put it into Zheng Jings mouth in a gentle way.
Chapter 324 - Love Near-fetched (Part Five)
Chapter 324: Love Near-fetched (Part Five)
As her fingers touched her brothers thin lips, Zheng Lun felt being engulfed by some sensations like never before. It was like an electrical shock and she felt her fingers getting numb, and heart beating fast. She breathed rapidly.
Her face flushed like an overripe shrimp.
After the flirty move of a womans finger into a mans mouth was achieved, Zhao Anan ran back to Mu Qing quickly and started to stuff eggnts into her mouth as she talked loudly, Tasty! I want to make food again. Mu, be my assistant.
Mu Qing liked it a lot when Zhao Anan addressed him in this way, because when they were innocent and ignorant ten years ago and had fallen in love with each other for the first time, Zhao Anan would address him as Mu in a flirty way.
He had no idea about Zheng Luns situation. So he had no idea what Zhao Anan just did. After hearing what she said, he immediately responded, Okay! Lets make soup. You like winter melon with wood C ear right?
He picked out the ingredients and started to peel them off proficiently. Then he got them ready for Zhao Anan to chop them up.
Zheng Jing had never been close to any woman apart from his sister. He had never had any intimate rtionship with anyone else in such a flirty way like today.
Those who graduated from military school tended to possess a strong sense of self control and didnt get moved by women very easily. Zheng Jing, who graduated from royal military school with excellent grades, was undoubtedly strong in willpower. Therefore, he had no interest towards the women who tried to approach him.
Also, due to the professional reason, Zheng Jing didnt spend much time with women. He didnt know much about women, especially whenpared to Mu Qing.
Zheng Jing tried hard to forget the scene when his sister put her finger into his mouth. He also tried hard to suppress the excitement stirring inside him. He said with a slightly hoarse voice, Lun, help me wash the fresh beans. They will be neededter.
Zheng Jing would definitely not ask Zheng Lun to do this kind of work usually, but his heart was beating fast and Zheng Luns face was red. Hence, he had to find some work for her to distract her and himself.
Otherwise he didnt know what crazy things he would do if they continued in this manner.
As he saw his sisters supple red lips, he couldnt help but want to kiss her.
Zheng Jing smiled bitterly C had he been away from women for so long so that he wanted to kiss his own sister?
He was going crazy!
Maybe, he should find a girlfriend.
If he was married, his sister would forget about him, wouldnt she?
Zheng Jing tried to distract himself and to forget what had just happened.
Did Zhao Anan do that on purpose?
Zheng Jing shook his head inside his heart.
That was impossible. Zhao Anan was a careless woman and she couldnt possibly notice something like this. If it had been Shangguan Ning who was careful and smart, he would have believed the possibility.
Shangguan Ning could possibly notice that how Zheng Lun looked at him was not a look with sisterly love. That was how she looked at Jing Yichen, after all.
Among the three women, Shangguan Ning was the most capable one with the highest EQ. She had been taking care of Zheng Lun all the time and talked with her in a way Zheng Lun which was not over the top. She had done it just right.
That was why Zheng Lun would want her sister to hang out with Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan. He could not be assured about Zhao Anan, because she was too outgoing. But he could trust Shangguan Ning who was considerate.
Shangguan Ning was not an outstanding person, but she had no ws either. She seemed ordinary, but she was actually almost perfect, in a different way from Jing Yichen. Jing Yichen was perfect so people admired him and kept a distance from him. But Shangguan Ning was perfect, because she made people feel at ease and she attracted them too.
That was what Zheng Jing thought after getting to know her.
People had ws. Both Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun did. So did Mu Qing and as a matter of fact, Jing Yichen did too.
But in so many years, Shangguan Ning was the only woman Zheng Jing had met who had no ws.
She was beautiful but she was definitely not an extremely striking woman. But whatever she did, made people feelfortable and people could rx in front of her.
He understood now why Shangguan Ning could make Jing Yichen, who never approached women, fall in love with her. She suited Jing Yichen best and she was whom Jing Yichen needed as well.
Zheng Jing decided to let sister hang out with an excellent woman like her more and to learn from her so that when she grew up, she would forget about him.
After some distraction, Zheng Jing finally lost the excitement inside his heart. He turned to look at his sister again and found that she was again showing her gentle smile and calm expression.
But as he looked at his sisters thin and white fingers washing the beans, Zheng Jing felt that he couldnt keep his eyes off her.
That was the finger he just had in his mouth.
A patch of red colour covered Zheng Luns white ears. Apparently, she was still lingering at the edge of shyness.
His sisters eyes were so beautiful, exquisite and tempting.
Tempting?
What was he thinking?
Zheng Jing forced his eyes off her and said in a calm voice, Lun, let me wash them. You have never done it before and you dont need to.
Zheng Lun looked up and her eyes were zed. But Brother, I want to do that and I also want to learn to cook! Can I?
Even Zhao Anan could cook, she must learn to cook too!
As long as her brother was willing to teach her, she would soon be able to learn to cook as well.
Slightly startled, Zheng Jing said smilingly, Who are you learning this for? If mom and dad ever got to know that I am making you cook, they would y me alive!
His heart ached a bit inside him.
This fragile sister wanted to learn to cook for some reason, one that he knew without needing to think.
She did it for him. She was running after him with all she had.
You dont need to tell mom and dad. When I learn how to cook, I will give them a surprise. They will definitely be happy.
Zheng Lun sounded eager. Sweat beads emerged at the tip of her little nose, making her look lovely and adorable.
Zheng Jing smiled. His sister now knew how to conceal.
What progress! When she spun lies now, she did not twist her fingers. She had them clenched instead.
It seemed that she had progressed after getting to know others.
Okay, I will teach you to cook, but you mustnt practice on the sly without me.
In case you got so eager that you got yourself injured. Then my heart would ache badly.
Chapter 325 - Woman in Love Made Progress
Chapter 325: Woman in Love Made Progress
Although there were two chefs avable, it still took more than an hour before all the dishes reached the table.
Every time Zhao Anan finished making one dish, she would carry the te around for everyone to have a taste. So Shangguan Ning had already tried most of the dishes on the table when the meal started.
The three men didnt talk much when they sat down for the meal. Zheng Jing and Mu Qing got on well with each other and both of them could be quite talkative. But they seemed very quiet in front of the chatty women.
Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun who had just learnt to cook almost forgot about eating. They were so excited that they kept discussing the new cooking skills they had picked up.
Shangguan Ning kept raising questions out of curiosity and they eventually started to talk about opening a restaurant together.
Zhao Anan already had a western restaurant, so she spoke like an experienced owner. Shangguan Ning kepting up with questions and Zheng Lun nodded constantly.
Anan, you have already got a restaurant? I didnt know about that. You are great! Zheng Lun envied her. She knew that she was a timid woman and didnt like interacting with outsiders, especially men. She was scared of men who badgered her, or courted her enthusiastically whenever they met her. They didnt even take her rejection seriously, only because she was weak and easily bullied.
Zhao Anan had been devoted to the restaurant while it was under construction, but she left the ce running on its ownter. Hearing Zheng Lun praise her, the bold girl became a bit modest. No, no, I am not great. I didnt do anything. I just copied everything from a western restaurant which I usually go to! Oh yes, Ning has a caf too, and she runs it better than I do.
Having heard the words, Zheng Lun turned to look at Shangguan Ning enviously, Ning, you have your own store too? No wonder you look quite charismatic.
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. She couldnt have be more charismatic just because she had opened a caf, could she?
Anan is just talking nonsense. I also have left the caf in someone elses hand and havent been there in a month. If you ever want to open one, you will definitely do it better than me.
Shangguan Ning consoled Zheng Lun, smilingly. She thought that Zheng Lun should step out of Family Zheng and enter society so that she wouldnt be too isted from reality. She was overprotected and had never worked, even at the age of 26. She even attended the university in this very city, because she didnt want to leave home and go somewhere far.
She, Zhao Anan, and the three men, had been abroad for work or study. Zheng Lun was the only one who had never been outside the country.
Family Zheng had never forbidden her to travel abroad. Zheng Jing had even tried to persuade his sister to pursue her studies outside the country. But she didnt want to leave home. She believed that she couldnt possibly get used to the exotic environment of foreign countries.
Encouraged by Shangguan Ning, Zheng Lun became a bit confident. She turned to Zheng Jing who was sitting next to her and said softly, Brother, I want to run a store too, is that okay?
Zheng Jing didnt want to disappoint her while she was this excited. So he said betweenughs, Of course, open one if you want to. My sister is very smart and she can definitely do it well! I am not well paid as a crime policeman, and if I ever lose my job, you better support me!
Policemen were not well paid, and Zheng Jings sry was only 5,000 C 6,000 per month. But Family Zheng had other businesses so the family was so rich that they wouldnt really care much about Zheng Luns potential failure as long as it could buy her an experience.
Hearing her brothers supportive words, Zheng Lun became delighted and her eyes twinkled.
She kept asking for advice from Zhao Anan and Shangguan Ning all the time during the meal.
Zheng Lun looked at his sister and thought that she must be serious this time.
Suddenly, he had a feeling that his sister had grown up. She wanted to go to establish her new business independently. Was she about to leave him?
On Zhao Anans birthday, none of the men discussed about Shen Lingbing. The topic would only cause worries to the women.
It was a critical situation right now which had affected Family Jing deeply. But Jing Yichen was not panicking. He had dealt with many crises and was capable of handling this incident of Family Shens.
When they were at Family Jing, Shen Jinjun, Shen Lingbins father seemed to believe that Jing Yiran had not killed his daughter. Or in other words, he believed Jing Yichen and Jing Zhongxiu whom he had followed for years. The two families were on intimate terms with each other and he trusted Jing Zhongxiu. He was a rational and experienced man who would not want to have dispute with Family Jing even if Jing Yiran had been the murderer. After all, Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yiran were different.
Jing Zhongxiu was not the kind of man who would have covered up for his own son if the son turned out to be the murderer.
Mu Qing didnt know much about the case. He didnt have much knowledge about how crime cases were handled. But he was a doctor and after working for umpteen number of times with Zheng Jing, he was almost a forensic expert. He had put forward a detailed statement about the cause of Shen Lingbings death.
Zheng Jing was a famous policeman of A City who had solved many important and difficult cases. He was an influential man.
At Family Jing, when they put forward the analysis, Shen Lingyue, who had been anxious and upset believing that Jing Yiran killed his sister, also calmed down and finally was convinced that someone else was the murderer.
By this time, Family Shen should have refuted the rumor by announcing to the media and public that Shen Lingbing had been murdered by someone else.
Jing Yichen and Zheng Jing left after lunch. They needed to continue the investigation for the murderer.
Mu Qing stayed back though. He wanted to spend the entire day with Zhao Anan to celebrate her birthday.
He hadnt celebrated the birthday with her for years and had a present prepared for her.
But now, he had be the male servant for the three women who were ying cards.
Mu, go and make tea! We are thirsty! Zhao Anan ordered.
Shangguan Ning was rtively politer. Doctor Mu, could you wash some strawberries for me, thanks!
Zheng Lun, who had been shy at the beginning, started to feel at home. Doctor Mu, I dont like green tea, could you please make rose tea for me instead?
Mu Qing looked delighted. His handsome face was full of happiness. No problem, I will definitely treat the guests well when you are at my home.
Zhao Anan red at him. This is my home!
Chapter 326 - Opportunities
Chapter 326: Opportunities
Mu Qing ignored her and went to prepare tea and fruit for the three of them. Standing in the kitchen, he hummed under his breath.
Seeing Mu Qing treating Zhao Anan so nicely and spoiling her in such a way, Zheng Lun couldnt help but get envious. She said wistfully, Anan, Doctor Mu is very nice to you. You are definitely going to be very happy in the future.
Zheng Lun didnt know about Zhao Anans disease. She couldnt have known that though they looked happy together, there was a lot of trouble hidden underneath.
Zhao Anan stayed silent for a bit before smiling and replying, You will be happy too!
Zheng Lun shook her head as her brothers image shed in her brain. She didnt know whether to be disappointed or hopeful.
Come to my house in a couple of days! I have been to Nings and yours. My mother says that good friends treat each other to food. I only have you two as my good friends. I have never invited anyone to my home before this.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan nodded with a smile. Okay, of course!
The three women with different personalities yed cards, chatted, all the while getting closer to each other. Zheng Lun was no longer as timid and restrained as when they first met her. She was showing the other side of hers.
As the evening approached, the servant of Family Zhao came to deliver the ingredients again. But this time, the chef was here too.
Zhao Anan had asked the chef toe. She wanted to learn how to cook from the chef of Family Zhao.
Therefore, when Jing Yichen and Zheng Jing came back, they found that half of the dishes on the table were delicate and tasty whilst the other half... were horrible.
The two of them threw a look at Mu Qing who nodded helplessly CYes, those dishes which are burnt and have no traces of the original ingredients, are the achievements of these threedies!
Jing Yichen and Zheng Jing exchanged a look and sat down for food without furtherints.
When they finished half of the meal, Jing Yichen suddenly said, Ning, you better not cook in the future.
Shangguan Ning looked at the ck fried shrimps which she had made and also thought the same thing. She nodded sadly, I cant agree more!
She knew that she wasnt good at making food, but Zhao Anan had forced her to. Now she had lost all her reputation.
Compared to Jing Yichen who was straightforward, Zheng Jing said in a very polite tone, fearing that he could break his sisters heart, Lun, you have worked hard today. I can take care of this kind of hard work in the future, instead.
But his obedient sister said excitedly, No, no! I like making food. Try this dish, Brother, I think that it has turned out well.
Hearing their conversation, Mu Qing just couldnt help but feel likeughing. He didnt say anything to Zhao Anan but started to gulp down the two dishes which she had made.
Zhao Anan was a careless woman, not as elegant as Shangguan Ning or as gentle as Zheng Lun. But she seemed to be better at cooking than them C the look of the dishes might not be good but they tasted okay. At least they were not burnt and the oil and salt was properly used.
For some reason, she turned out to be the best student amongst the three of them.
It was 11pm already by the time they finished the meal. Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen wanted to leave for home, but were stopped by Zhao Anan.
It is my birthday today, no one is leaving! We are all sleeping here tonight!
But there were only three bedrooms at Zhao Anans!
Shangguan Ning looked at Zheng Lun and wondered what Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing were going to do? They were brother and sister but they were adults. Besides, Zheng Lun was deeply in love with Zheng Jing. Would it be okay for them to share the bed?
What was Zhao Anan thinking?
Zheng Jing said with a smile, Alright, we will keep the birthday girlpany! I will share the room with Mu Qing, Anan you can share the room with my sister.
That wont work!
Mu Qing and Zhao Anan burst out these words at the same time and then exchanged a surprised look with each other.
What Mu Qing had not expected was that Zhao Anan would voluntarily want to share the bed with him. Didnt she always try to get away from his arms?
Zhao Anan didnt bother about his reasons for saying so. She said happily, Zheng Jing, you can share the bed with Lun, you are brother and sister, so it is okay to share the bed!
Zheng Jing was a bit embarrassed. Mu Qing didnt want to share the bed with him and Jing Yichen was not going to share the bed with anyone else.
But it was a problem if he had to share the bed with his sister.
After saying so, Zhao Anan pushed Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing into one bedroom despite their hesitation. Then she pointed at the bedroom where Shangguan Ning had stayed overnight before. Ning, that room is yours. Good Night!
Then she dragged Mu Qing to another bedroom.
Shangguan Ning noticed the proud smile on Zhao Anans face. She smiled as she shook her head. She finally understood that Zhao Anan was creating opportunities for Zheng Lun.
But she didnt think that what was going on with Zheng Lun would work. They were siblings and they couldnt... get married.
Jing Yichen never cared about such a thing. He didnt care about what was going on with other peoples rtionships, not even Zhao Anans.
Shangguan Ning entered the bedroom with Jing Yichen. As they changed into pajamas, she asked softly, How did it go with Family Shen?
She had been thinking about this matter throughout the entire day but didnt want to mention it earlier because it may have ruined the atmosphere.
Jing Yichen scooped her into his arms and said calmly, There wont be any problem with Family Shen. Shen Jinjun is a considerate man. He wont break up with Family Jing just because his daughter died. Also, Jing Yiran didnt kill Shen Lingbing. He did drug her but that was not fatal. Her death was caused due to ODing.
The person who drugged her was smart. He used the same drug Jing which Yiran did, yet he made sure the portion was many times timesrger. Also, Jing Yiran had started to drug Shen Lingbing ten days earlier. All he wanted to do was to make sure Shen Lingbing got sick so that she lost her strength to attend the engagement party. The other person who drugged her, however, increased the portion and killed Shen Lingbing straightaway.
Shangguan Ning felt really bad when she heard this.
Chapter 327 - The Fatal Temptation (Part One)
Chapter 327: The Fatal Temptation (Part One)
It had been bad enough that Shen Lingbing needed to marry Jing Yiran whom she didnt know at all. But now, she had lost her life and that was devastating.
Was the murderer caught?
Yes, but she was just a scapegoat. She was a servant of Family Shen who was bribed by Jing Yiran at the beginning and someone elseter, to poison Shen Lingbing. That servant has a son who was sent abroad for studies before the murder took ce. But Jing Yiran didnt help arrange that.
Jing Yirans bribe could be traced, but the other person hasnt left many clues behind. Therefore, it might take some time to discover it.
Shangguan Ning knew Jing Yichen well. She understood that although he hadnt found the evidence yet, but he definitely had a suspect.
Whom do you suspect?
Jing Yichens voice was low. Family Ji has a very close rtionship with Jing Yiran. He is impulsive and inconsiderate. Only Family Ji knew that he was drugging Shen Lingbing.
Since no new information hade out of Family Shen, then the inspection should start from Jing Yiran. He would definitely have more information than Family Shen.
You suspect Family Ji?
Jing Yichen corrected her calmly. Not the entire Family Ji, but Ji Bo.
Ji Bo? Shangguan Ning looked up in astonishment and said, It is scary that he can be so vicious. When I met him several years ago, I thought of him as a gentleman, honest and upright! She was not questioning Jing Yichens judgement and conjecture. She just felt that she had not managed to see through Ji Bo well enough.
That was what Ji Bo was like, handsome, and generous. He was very gentle towards women and took good care of them. He only had a bad attitude towards Ji Lili. Otherwise, he treated everyone else well enough. It was very pleasant to talk with him.
Hearing his wife in his arms praising another man as a gentleman, Jing Yichen frowned.
He was suddenly reminded of how Ji Bo had looked at Shangguan Ning when he took her for the financial coboration talk, the other day.
Suddenly, his face turned cold. Wrapping his broad hands around Shangguan Nings slender waist possessively, he lowered his head and said, Stay away from Ji Bo. No meeting with him alone ever! No talking with him and no smiling at him either, understand?
Shangguan Ning got startled by his cold voice. She had no idea why he suddenly got furious. She stared at him for a long time before realising that he was being jealous.
She gazed at Jing Yichen helplessly and almost couldnt control herughter.
Are you jealous of Ji Bo? How silly can you be! I have never met with him alone and only exchanged a few words with him at Ji Lilis banquets. He couldnt possibly like me, because he is ambitious and will marry a woman who could give him a boost in his career so that he could get the entire inheritance of Family Ji. You are different. I know that you can even throw away half of Jingshengs properties without hesitation for me if the need arises.
Those words pleased Jing Yichen and he instantly got happy. He lowered his head to kiss Shangguan Ning. Thats my girl! There is no other man better than me, so you dont need to think of anyone else. Just stay by my side.
He got mood swings like a child, totally different from his usualposed demeanour.
Shangguan Ning leaned forward to kiss his soft lips and said smilingly, I will be your girl throughout my life and will only stand by your side. Also, there is truly no other man who is better than you, and I knew that even before I married you.
While Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were having afortable chat, Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun were experiencing acute embarrassment.
They were in the same room and that made it inconvenient for either of them to get changed. But they couldnt just sleep in those clothes. Zheng Jing was still wearing his uniform.
Standing at the door, Zheng Jing was about to pull it open when Zheng Lun held his arm tightly.
She said in panic, Brother, dont leave me alone! I am scared to sleep alone in a strange ce.
Zheng Lun was almost leaning into him. She was holding onto him tightly because she was really scared that Zheng Jing would leave her and go away. But Zheng Jing could feel the supple and plump softness... on Zheng Luns chest through the thin garment.
Zheng Jing had been close with Zheng Lun before. They always shared the bed when they were little. Zheng Lun had often slept with him, like a small kitten nestled in his arms, looking rather adorable.
But at that time, he only adored her, nothing else.
But now...
He was a normal man. With arms so tightly clenched against his sisters chest, he couldnt stop himself from having a reaction. He was not made out of stone.
Zheng Jing really wanted to p himself. How could he possibly have such feelings towards his sister.
Was he a monster?
Zheng Jing closed his eyes and pulled his arm out of his sisters hands.
Zheng Lun almost burst into tears when Zheng Jing did that.
Zheng Jing couldnt bear to see his sister in tears. He consoled her by speaking softly, Silly girl, dont cry. I am not leaving, I just want to leave the room for you to get changed. I will get change in the bathroom.
Seeing that she had misunderstood him, Zheng Lun felt a bit embarrassed. But she rxed and nodded. Okay, Brother,e back soon. I will change quickly.
Zheng Jing nodded and walked out with his pajamas in hand.
He wouldnt allow Zheng Lun to sleep alone. She had experienced a trauma in her childhood that made her feel very scared in strange spaces. She still had nightmares because of that and couldnt fall asleep in the dark.
She had no fear when she was sleeping in her own home, but she got scared easily when she was outside.
After Zheng Jing changed and returned to the bedroom, he got startled the moment he saw Zheng Lun.
Zheng Lun was dressed in acy pajama in ckish red color. The shoulder straps were thin and the top had a low necked cor, showing her exquisite corbone and a bit of her snowy white breasts. The bottom was too short, barely covering her plump butt. Her slender long legs werepletely exposed.
What was more, the night suit was nearly transparent.
She was like a delicious forbidden fruit, tempting him to take a bite!
Chapter 328 - The Fatal Temptation (Part Two)
Chapter 328: The Fatal Temptation (Part Two)
This was not Zheng Luns style!
She roamed around at home in her PJs and most of them were pure cotton, short-sleeved gowns with Cartoon figures. They covered her shoulders and the hems were always below the knees, totally conventional.
But right now, she was full of temptation,bination of charm and innocence, totally irresistible.
Zheng Jing felt that he would surely have a nose bleed. He would probably have done something improper right now had he not been strictly trained at the military school for four years!
Zheng Lun was feeling embarrassed.
She didnt know that Zhao Anan had given her such kind of a night wear. It was not much different from not wearing anything. Was Zhao Anan trying to kill her?
Twisting her fingers in agitation, she bit her lip and exined to Zheng Jing anxiously, Brother, I didnt mean... to be dressed like this! These are Anans clothes, she... I will... go and ask for another one from her!
Saying so, she was about to walk out.
But Zheng Jing grabbed hold of her immediately.
How could she go to find Zhao Anan dressed like this?
What if Mu Qing saw her?
But Zheng Jing had used too much force because of which Zheng Lun fell into his arms.
Zheng Jing lowered his head and could see everything through her low neck top. She was perfectly shaped and that stimted Zheng Jing to no end. He involuntarily tightened his grip on her.
This was not right. He was being driven crazy by this girl!
Zheng Jing held his sister and walked towards the bed.
Zheng Lun let out a low moan and called out to him anxiously. Brother!
Was he going to...
Zheng Jing knew exactly what his sister was thinking. He saw his sisters rosy cheeks and tempting lips as he said in a hoarse voice, No more of wearing this kind of clothes, understand?
He said so in a severe tone. It was the most serious tone he had ever used with her.
Fearing that he was furious, Zheng Lun said instantly, Okay, okay, I will not! Brother, I will not get dressed in this kind of clothes ever. You are looking too severe. I am scared!
With a stiff face, Zheng Jing ced Zheng Lun on the bed, and tucked her under the quilt till only her head was visible.
I will go for a shower now. I will be back soon, you can sleep first.
He said so and left, ignoring Zheng Luns reaction.
After a long whileter, Zheng Jing came back with dripping hair.
He came back in a calmer state and noticed that Zheng Lun was not asleep yet. He whispered, You sleep on the wall side or you might drop off the bed.
Zheng Lun moved inside obediently and left arge ce for Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing turned off the lights and climbed on the bed. Zheng Lun was not afraid of the dark with him around.
A whileter, Zheng Lun whispered, Brother, are you angry?
Zheng Jing smiled in the darkness and said in a gentle tone, Silly girl, I am not angry with you. Stop thinking and go to sleep.
Zheng Lun could tell that he was not angry, so she felt assured. She also felt that how she was dressed was not proper.
Zheng Lun was about to close her eyes when she suddenly discovered another problem C that evil Zhao Anan had just given them one nket and she was the one tucked in it.
Her brother had no nket over him.
It was already autumn and the temperature had started to drop. At this rate, he would definitely catch a cold on the following day.
She didnt want her brother to get sick.
She spread half of the nket and put it on Zheng Jing carefully.
I dont need it! You can have it all. I might pull it all to myself if I get even a bit of it.
Zheng Jing raised his arm to push the nket back towards her when a supple and fragile body appeared in his arms. Zheng Lun had just moved herself into his arms!
Her body was no longer skinny and tiny like a child. She was plump and soft, emitting a womans fragrance.
Was this a test for him?
When did Zheng Lun get so bold? Did she learn something bad from Zhao Anan?
It couldnt have been Zhao Anans fault. It was the strong desire of Zheng Lun had made her do such a bold deed.
She slipped her hands onto Zheng Jings sturdy waist. Her heart was beating so fast. She was worried that Zheng Jing would push her away again. So she said anxiously, Brother, I am scared, hold me, just once, alright? Just once...
Oh girl, do you think that I dont want to?
I am at the edge of losing my self-control!
Zheng Jing heard himself talking in apressed and low voice, Lun, stay away from me.
No, I want to hold you! Zheng Lun didnt want to leave. Her face was flushed and his arms felt warm and cozy. She felt secure in his arms and didnt want to move away from them.
Just once, just for today!
Zheng Lun didnt let go of him and Zheng Jing couldnt do anything about it. He let out a bitterugh and allowed his sister to get close to his taut body.
He just hoped that he would not embarrass himself. He already had an erection.
Lun, just once, understood? We cant sleep in this way any more. We are grownups and not kids anymore. Understand?
Zheng Lun got excited and nodded constantly hearing that he had agreed. Yes, yes, I know! Just for once!
Once would be enough. When Brother married in the future, she couldnt possibly sleep with him in this way.
That was a sad thought. If Brother married and left her, what was she going to do?
She often heard Zhao Ananin that after Jing Yichen got married, he didnt want her any more. But she was d that she had hooked her best friend up with her cousin so that she didnt need to worry about anything with her by his side. If she needed anything, she could juste to Shangguan Ning for help. It was easier than to turn to Jing Yichen.
Zheng Lun felt a bit sad. She leaned herself closer to Zheng Jing as if he would be gone somehow.
A long whileter, she heard her brother breathing steadily. He had fallen asleep.
Zheng Lun couldnt wait any more. She lowered her head and kissed her brothers chest.
Zheng Lun stiffened as if he had been electrocuted.
Delicious shock spread all over his limbs starting from the ce where Zheng Lun had kissed him. He had gotten hard again!
This girl dared to kiss him on the sly!!
Zheng Jing really wanted to spank her and tell her that she shouldnt have done that. But he could do nothing but pretend to be asleep. Otherwise his sister would be badly embarrassed if she was caught kissing him.
Zheng Jing tried to force himself to fall asleep. Otherwise he would definitely lose his self control fully.
Chapter 329 - Mu Qing’s Fury
Chapter 329: Mu Qings Fury
Zhao Anan tiptoed out of her room and ced her ears against Zheng Luns room. After a long while, she frowned and mumbled. Why is it so quiet? That is weird. Could it be that Zheng Jing is incapable?
Standing by her side, Mu Qing found it amusing and annoying.
She had walked out of her room to eavesdrop??
Even if that was the case, she should have tried Jing Yichen and Shangguan Nings room, not Zheng Jings!
They were siblings and there definitely would not be anything going on.
Was Zhao Anan brain-damaged today?
Mu Qing shook his head and then scooped Zhao Anan up from the floor and carried her back to the bedroom.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Anan didnt struggle at being carried off. Instead, she kept mumbling, What is it going on? Is Zheng Jing a real man to resist a beautiful girl?
Mu Qing found what she said quite irritating. Honestly, Zhao Anan, whether or not Zheng Jing is a real man has nothing to do with you. What you need to do is to make sure I am a real man. That is all you have to worry about.
Zhao Anan came back to herself, but she refused to exin the fact that Zheng Lun liked Zheng Jing, because she had made a promise to keep it a secret. She would not spill a thing to Mu Qing.
Alright, Alright, lets go back to sleep. But I need the bed, so you can take the sofa.
There was a sofa in her bedroom, but it was a one-person sofa meant for sitting, not for lying down. Sleeping there would be very ufortable.
Zhao Anan was just about to climb on the bed when Mu Qing dragged her back.
What are you doing? Lets sleep now. Dont take advantage of me! You had forced me earlier but today we are at my home, and you are not allowed...
Before Zhao Anan finished the words, she saw Mu Qing getting down on one knee.
Zhao Anan suddenly realised what was happening.
Mu Qing scooped out a red box from his pocket. He opened the box and presented it to Zhao Anan and said seriously, Anan, I love you. Will you marry me? I want to stay by your side for the rest of our lives.
This was the real reason why Mu Qing didnt want to share the bed with Zheng Jing tonight.
He had nned to pop the question to Zhao Anan on her birthday.
Mu Qings serious words went deep down into the bottom of Zhao Anans heart. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw the dazzling diamond ring. Then her heart started to beat at a breakneck speed.
She hadnt expected that Mu Qing would pop the question so quickly.
Was it too soon?
No, not really. She had been looking forward to this day for ten years!
But for the rest of their lives?
Mu Qing, I have no idea how much longer will I live for. There is no such thing as the rest of my life!
The cancer had resurfaced twice in the past ten years. As I grow older, the cancer would resurface more frequently. I am not sure how much longer can I hold on for.
Chemotherapy was very painful. The anti-cancer shots went directly into the marrow.
At that time, every single day was miserable. She couldnt eat or sleep. Every part of her ached...
The German doctor had told her that after two high impact sessions of chemotherapy, it would be highly unlikely that she could get pregnant ever.
I mustnt be so selfish to ruin your lifetime happiness because of my sickness.
Mu Qing, I love you so much that I want to leave you so that you can lead a happy life.
If any womanes to your side in the future, I would definitely get very jealous. But I am not going to appear in front of you again or ruin your life and make you sad.
Zhao Anan couldnt stop the tears which trickled down her cheeks.
The tearsnded on the back of Mu Qings hand that was holding the diamond. His heart ached at the sight of those tears.
He knew pretty well what Zhao Anans expression meant. He covered her mouth with his palm and said anxiously, Zhao Anan, you are not allowed to turn me down. If you ever turn me down again, I will die right in front of you!
Zhao Anan couldnt say anything with his hands over her mouth. But she kept shaking her head.
She rarely cried, but tonight, her tears kept gushing out of her eyes.
Mu Qing took out the ring and ced it upon Zhao Anans third finger of her left hand. Then he carried her up to the bed and threw himself at her.
He wiped off Zhao Anans tears and covered her mouth with his lips so that she couldnt say a word.
A long timeter, Mu Qing stopped.
A drop of tears trickled down alongside his eye corner as he spoke in a low growl. Zhao Anan, if you are still a goddamned woman, you must not turn me down. You are stuck with me for your entire life. I forbid you to withdraw!
Mu, I...
Shut up! Mu Qings eyes were bloodshot. His handsome, sunny face was full of fury and he didnt sound like his usual jovial self. You are not allowed to say anything tonight. I dont need any exnation and I am open to none. What I want to hear from you is nothing other than I will!
To hell with that I cant marry you!
Mu Qing cursed furiously as he started to rip off Zhao Anans clothes.
You are not sick in the womb. You are sick in the head! You arepletely healthy now and you still assume that you are dying. Cant you just wait until you really get sick? I am a god damn doctor. I can cure you. Cancer is nothing, I can cure anything as long as it is not damned heartlessness.
Whenever Mu Qing got furious, Zhao Anan always became very quiet.
Mu Qing barely lost his temper. He was a patient man who did whatever she wanted and tolerated whatever she did. Zhao Anan could bully him or scold him in whichever way she wanted and he would ept it all.
But when he was really angry, Zhao Anan got very scared.
His anger was terrifying and heart-breaking at the same time.
Her heart ached for Mu Qing in this situation.
He was a legendary man of A City who had be a prestigious doctor at such a young age. He had be a respectable director of an enormous hospital all by himself.
He never shed tears, but now he was.
Zhao Anans heart ached a great deal. Tears again gushed out of her eyes, making Mu Qing scold her again.
What are you crying for? I am not dead. No more crying now. You are only allowed to cry when I am dead, otherwise no tears for anything or anyone.
He got angry as hepletely stripped Zhao Anan. Before she realized it, he had entered her.
Zhao Anan frowned and let out a low cry. It hurts!
She had just finished speaking when Mu Qing spanked her hard, making Zhao Anan again let out a cry. It hurts!
Mu Qing spoke through clenched teeth, Zhao Anan, do you know how it feels like being hurt? Do you know how much it hurts when you keep stabbing my heart?
Chapter 330 - The Bossy President Got Selfish (Part One)
Chapter 330: The Bossy President Got Selfish (Part One)
The next morning, Zhao Anans servant felt better and came back to work.
The moment she entered the door, she found that apart from Zhao Anans sneakers on the shelf, there were five more pairs there. Three of them were mens shoes.
The servant smiled and went to prepare breakfast.
With six people at home, she needed to make enough.
Three beautiful couples walked out one after another. But only Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen had had a good night sleep and looked fresh, the other two couples didnt look so good.
Especially Mu Qing and Zhao Anan.
That was the first time for Shangguan Ning to see Mu Qing with a sunken face and the very first time for her to see Zhao Anan walking behind Mu Qing quietly. This was indeed a rare scene!
She didnt know what Zhao Anan had done that the good tempered Mu Qing got angry so badly.
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun were not mad at each other. But they looked unnatural C something weird was going on between them.
Shangguan Ning shook her head and threw a look at Jing Yichen. She felt that the way she lived with Jing Yichen was very great. There were troubles in their life too, but at least nothing was stopping them from loving each other.
It was not as happy a time at breakfastpared to the lunch and dinner of the day before, because Zhao Anan kept gulping down food and Zheng Lun sipped the milk with a flushed face.
Zhao Anan was famished. Mu Qing had gone crazyst night and made love to her throughout the night despite her begging him for mercy. She was both tired and hungry to say anything now.
As for Zheng Lun...
She had seen something this morning which she was not supposed to see. She was panicking so much that her heartbeat was galloping.
She was innocent, but not stupid. She had learnt about the physical structure of men and women at school and also got knowledge from the TV and books as well. She knew it all.
But she had never run into such a situation like this morning.
She had seen it and identally... touched it. Then her brother had woken up instantly.
She had never seen him flush, but this morning, he did!
Zheng Lun had been embarrassed and found herself in a tricky situation when she saw her brother flush. She suddenly stopped feeling embarrassed and burst intoughter, so that her brother ran off all the way to the bathroom.
The three couples finished the breakfast quietly. Then everyone left apart from Mu Qing.
Jing Yichen held Shangguan Nings hands on the way and said to her in a calm and gentle way, Ning, I think that you are extremely qualified for media affairs. What about taking that business over? Also, you can take over the real estate business of the enterprise as well. Uncle said that you are good at it.
Shangguan Ning got slightly startled and asked in bewilderment, Why? Am I not doing well in the financial department? Our enterprise has just started to coborate with Family Jis Enterprise and we have taken in a lot of capitalpared tost month. The financial business would be affected if someone else takes over right now. I have been there from the beginning and I am good at it now.
Jing Yichen shook his head and calmly said, You are doing well. But I didnt expect that you could have developed it so fast when I entrusted the work to you, because that has been the weak point of Jingsheng. We have Jis help, but they are not helping us, genuinely. Most of the time, we are on our own. What you have done is beyond my anticipation!
Jing Yichen was not lying. Work and life were separate. He praised Shangguan Ning for doing the work well, because she really did so. He had entrusted the financial business to her for her to practice her skills.
But she was discreet and capable, diligent and hardworking. She had maintained a good rtionship with Family Jis team which had been sent to Jingsheng and sometimes even treated them to lunch to try and extract business information from them.
Family Jis team which had been sent to thepany were professionals.
But that team was not fully devoted to the business of Jingsheng.
Ji Bo had done what Jing Yichen expected to see. He was not going to give the best business of Jis to Jingsheng for free. If he really had offered the channel to Jingsheng so that Jinsgheng could develop their financial department, then even Jing Yichen would have looked down on him. They werepetitors, and the business confidential secrets needed to be hidden in whatever manner possible.
So what Jingshengs financial team had gotten from them was just some impractical information. Shangguan Ning had been the only person who had managed to extract a few key points.
Despite being a Deputy Director, she worked like an ordinary employee who discussed the problems with the financial team of Jis. She asked them if she didnt understand something. At the beginning, the other party didnt oblige, butter, she did manage to collect useful information.
Soon after that, the entire financial department started to imitate her way of badgering, so they got a hold of the information from Jis little by little.
Jing Yichen had one hand on the steering wheel and the other held Shangguan Nings hand. He smiled and said inposure, The financial department has learnt the right way and they can do it well without you.
Shangguan Ning pulled her hand from Jing Yichens and red at him as she snapped, Jing Yichen, are you saying that I can be reced? Do you want to sleep on the street?
Jing Yichen shook his head as he grabbed Shangguan Nings again and kissed it.
Then he said submissively, My honorable wife, I didnt mean that. Dont misinterpret my words. What I mean is that you have led the financial department well and they can be on their own. You can never be reced. You are the only one that I cant live without.
As for sleeping on the street... I object! I want my wife, not the street.
Shangguan Ning red and said through clenched teeth. Then tell me why you want me out of the financial department?
Chapter 331 - The Bossy President Got Selfish (Part Two)
Chapter 331: The Bossy President Got Selfish (Part Two)
Jing Yichen shook his head and chuckled. Honestly, women should not be too smart. I liked it when you were a bit dumb.
His young, beloved wife had seen through him. He did have an ulterior motive of getting her out of the financial department.
I dont want to be dumb!
Shangguan Ning had never thought of herself as someone smart. She was excellent innguage and sports, but she was normal at everything else.
She belonged to the group who were strong in muscle but simple in brain.
But however dumb she might be, she understood that Jing Yichen couldnt possibly want to remove her from the financial business if she was so good and make her go somewhere else, without any valid reason. These two departments were operating well with the respective deputy presidents and she wouldnt have anything to do there.
The car soon reached the Landscape Compound. Jing Yichen parked the car and went up the elevator hand in hand with his wife.
The morning sun shone upon the spacious and clean bedroom through therge floor-to-ceiling window. It brought a golden warmth to the entire house, making the couple feelfortable.
Sitting on the bed, Jing Yichen pulled Shangguan Ning upon his thighs and put his chin against her head as he said softly, I was being selfish in removing you from the financial department. Oh man, I mixed private affairs with business, what should I do?
Shangguan Ning felt helpless. She said in disbelief, Are you still jealous of Ji Bo?
Jing Yiran said inposure. Yeah? So what?
.....
Shangguan Ning really had no idea what was she supposed to say. He was admitting that he was being selfish. She was a Deputy President, lower ranked than the President.
I object! I have nothing to do with Ji Bo. What are you thinking all the time? If I liked him, I would have gotten together with him ages ago.
Jing Yichen smiled seeing that she got anxious.
He trusted his wife, but he didnt trust Ji Bo.
He was a man and clearly understood what Ji Bos look had meant. He had an appreciating look when he looked at Shangguan Ning, but not when he looked at his own fiance.
But he was not going to tell his wife about that. He was not stupid enough to tell his woman that someone else had eyes upon her.
Jing Yichen was not going to sit still if some other man had eyes upon his wife.
Ji Bo looked like a gentleman on the surface. He was not going to do anything to Shangguan Ning upfront and Jing Yichen couldnt just tell him to get out of his sight because of that.
But he just couldnt stand Ji Bos looking at Shangguan Ning and thats why he had to ask his wife to take over another department to stay away from Ji Bo.
Jing Yichen ced his hand on Shangguan Nings smooth cheeks with a smile. I trust you, Ning, I know you dont like him, because I know that this ce...
He moved his fingers from her cheeks to her heart, Of yours only belongs to me. I dont doubt that. You dont need to exin anything, I can feel it all, baby.
But there is one more reason why I dont want you to be the head of financial department any more. Jing Yichen paused.
Family Jis Enterprise has been extremely active, recently. Ji Bo is getting closer and closer to Jing Yiran and he is a dangerous man. I dont want you to step into the dangerous pit. I will handle all the dangers. It is a war between men and you have nothing to do with it. What you need to do is to stand behind me and enjoy whatever happiness and peace a woman should enjoy.
Shangguan Ning felt her heart hop.
That was what he was always like. He barely said any passionate words and almost never said I love you. But she would be moved to tears by whatever he said when he was being serious, and she would always feel her heart soften.
He was such a chauvinistic man who felt that he should bear all the responsibilities and face all the difficulties alone. He wanted to create a ce for her where she could live happily and without any concern.
If she had not insisted upon going to work, Jing Yichen would have never let her. He would have said the following words CI can work and you can focus upon being pretty. Spend as much as money you wish and I will take you wherever you want to. If you want to run your ownpany, I will send you a team of technicians.
She had heard about Ji Bos constantmunication with Jing Yiran and she also knew that the gentle looking Ji Bo was an ambitious man. Jing Yichen was right about the potential danger.
Actually, it wouldnt make any difference for Shangguan Ning whichever department she worked for.
Just as Jing Yichen said, she had good knowledge about real estate, because that was what her Uncles business was all about. She had been close to her Uncle and had heard a lot of babbling about real estate since she was young. He had intended to give half of Family Huangs Properties to her, and kept telling her about the knowledge and experience rted to real estate.
She just found it weird that Jing Yichen suddenly wanted to remove her from the financial department.
Shangguan Ning knew pretty well that she was not a match against Ji Bo. She was just a businesswoman who had previously been living in the Ivory Tower with nopetition. She didnt have so many countermeasures topete with Ji Bo who had grown up in the business field.
She smiled and pinched Jing Yichens face. Tell me straight up if you have anything to say next time. No more hidden messages. I am dumb, remember?
That was basically a yes to leave the financial business.
Jing Yiran felt his heart full of warmth and a happy smile hovered on his lips.
His wife always cared so much about him and was always so understanding. She could let go of the financial business which she had spent so much effort upon, so easily.
Arent you feeling any reluctance? The financial department staff admires you a lot, now.
Shangguan Ning looked up at his handsome face. Nothing to be reluctant about. I have achieved so much with them because of you. If not for your talks with Ji Bo, we would not have gotten that extra help. Also, you are my husband and the financial department belongs to the enterprise that belongs to you, who belongs to me. So I have got everything, and there is no such thing as a loss.
Jing Yichen burst intoughter after hearing her reasonable statement. Yes, yes, you are my queen. Everything I have acquired is yours.
As a matter of fact, the main reason why Jing Yichen removed Shangguan Ning from the financial business was because he had decided to establish a professional financial business team to negotiate with Ji Bo.
And Ji Bos dream would be fulfilled if he was to meet Shangguan Ning every single day of the negotiation.
Chapter 332 - A Room of Happiness
Chapter 332: A Room of Happiness
The servant was washing the dishes after everyone else left Zhao Anans home.
Zhao Anan stuffed a strawberry into the mouth of the servant who had been devoted to taking care of her and who had just washed the strawberries. After thinking for a second, she stuffed one into Mu Qings mouth as well.
Then she carried the strawberries into the bedroom and started to eat the fruit, crawling upon the bed. She had no strength left and felt lethargic all over her body. She just wanted to sleep.
Mu Qing felt a bit happy as he ate the strawberries which Zhao Anan had given him.
He followed Zhao Anan into the bedroom and picked out a set of clothes from the wardrobe and tossed it towards Zhao Anan. Get up and get dressed. We need to go somewhere.
Zhao Anan tossed them aside and mumbled with strawberries in her mouth. Where do you want to go? I am going nowhere, I need sleep, I am so tired.
Hearing the words, Mu Qing stopped talking and climbed on the bed. He started to take off Zhao Anans clothes.
Zhao Anan got so startled that the te fell off her hand as she screamed. Scumbag, what are you doing? Have you taken some erotic medicine that you want me constantly? We did it six or seven timesst night and I want it no more.
Hearing the nonsense that she said, Mu Qing got both annoyed and amused.
Was he really an erotic man?
He was a doctor and had seen numerous naked women. He was immune to everything and only had erection when he was facing her. But he had a strong self control and would not have tormented her so muchst night if she had not annoyed him.
She was covered with the marks of kisses and bites from the night before. The most tender ce of hers on her lower body was already swelling. He didnt want to torment her any more.
Mu Qing spanked Zhao Anan and showed the first smile sincest night. Do you want me to take you again and die out of exhaustion? Sorry, Lady Zhao, I will take it slow in case I cant satisfy you any more. Now, please take off your PJs and get this dress on. Or I will insert a needle in you and do it myself!
Only now did Zhao Anan understand that she had misunderstood him.
But she was not a shy girl. She didnt flush at what Mu Qing said but kicked him violently, Get out of the room. I am getting changed and you can not watch.
Mu Qing was not annoyed any more. He started to talk with her in a friendly way as he normally did. That was why Zhao Anan started to behave in an intimidating manner like a queen.
Mu Qing would have been stupid to do what she ordered.
I have seen every inch of your body. I have touched and kissed every corner of it. Arent you being a bit hypocritical to be shy at this moment?
Zhao Anan didnt pay much attention to what he said. But Mu Qing talked in such an erotic way that her ears got red.
She had not been embarrassed when she was with Mu Qing the night before. She liked him and enjoyed kissing and touching him.
But she did panic when she had to get changed in front of Mu Qing in broad daylight.
He was standing there fully dressed whilst she had to get naked for him to watch. That was not fair!
But then she saw Mu Qing showing two silver needles and staring at her fully determined.
She didnt want to be turned into a numb person who couldnt move at all.
Zhao Anan stripped off the PJ obediently and started to wear the underwear which Mu Qing had picked for her, and then the clothes.
Zhao Anans skin was white and she had a well proportioned body.
Her body was curvy and not skinny. Mu Qing fed her nutritious food due to which she had gained several kilos.
On her white chest, the traces of Mu Qings kisses fromst night could be seen clearly.
Mu Qing swallowed his saliva. He felt himself getting hotter and hotter.
He had just thought of himself as a disciplined man but at the moment, he felt that he was going to lose his self control.
Well, she was his woman after all. It was normal that he got lustful, so he lunged at her immediately.
After the violent night, Zhao Anans skin felt extremely sensitive.
Mu Qing, get off me, it still hurts...
Zhao Anan barely called Mu Qing by his name. She only did it when she was turned on. At that time, she would drag the Qing so that anyone who heard that would tremble in heart.
Mu Qing had just wanted to have a taste, but Zhao Anans voice stopped him from releasing her.
Zhao Anan had no idea how sexy her voice sounded at this moment and how different she was from the anxious Zhao Anan. She was charming and enchanting in every single way.
She had wanted to sound soft so that Mu Qing could release her. But the method backfired.
The underwear which she had just put on was ripped off by Mu Qing and she could hear the sound ofce tearing.
Zhao Anan bit on Mu Qings shoulder fiercely. He was so violent to have torn so many of her underpants. She will have to go shopping again, tomorrow!
Feeling the pain, Mu Qing also bit Zhao Anan, leaving a light mark upon her exquisite corbone. After that, he parted her long legs and entered her.
Then came the light moaning of ecstasy.
Zhao Anan grabbed Mu Qinga waist and panted in his ears, unsteadily, Didnt you say that... we were going out?
With her white earlobe in his mouth, he said after doing her for a while. No hurry... I want... you.
The low moaning sound filled up the entire room. It was a bright morning of autumn day and the warm sun seemed to have gotten embarrassed as well.
The happinesssted for a long time before they were satiated.
Mu Qing wrapped Zhao Anan in the nket and carried her to the bathroom.
After they came out of the bathroom, Mu Qing tossed Zhao Anan to the bed, got himself dressed and then went to put on the clothes for Zhao Anan in a gentle way.
Did I hurt you?
Zhao Anan red at him but she was too tired to say anything, allowing herself to be dressed by him in a clumsy way.
After they got dressed, Mu Qing drove Zhao Anan in his white Jaguar.
As they went further, the scene outside the window got increasingly familiar. Zhao Anan suddenly realized that something was wrong. She bellowed, Scumbag! Where are we going? Stop the car. I am not going anywhere with you.
Chapter 333 - Meeting the Parents (Part One)
Chapter 333: Meeting the Parents (Part One)
Mu Qing ignored her panicky face andughed proudly. Well, you cant get off my car once you are in it.
Zhao Anan instantly started to curse. You are a shameless monster! Why must I visit your family? I am not going there. I want to get off the car, I have nothing to do with you!
The road was leading to Family Mus house. Zhao Anan recognized the road because she had been there before.
This was not a joke. She couldnt go there.
Was she going there to be driven out?
Mu Qings parents and his grandpa had said ten years ago that Family Mu was not going to allow him to marry an unhealthy or infertile woman. Mu Qing was the hope of his family and she must not ruin him.
Family Mu had once offered her arge amount ofpensation. But Family Zhao needed everything but money!
Zhao Anan was young back then and she had never heard anything like this. She couldnt stand what Family Mu said and had broken up with Mu Qing and disappeared from his worldpletely.
It was not until she grew up and became mature did she understand that their argument was very reasonable and that it had been she who had not been rational.
So she shouldnt visit Family Mu again!
She didnt want to get humiliated and didnt want Mu Qing to have a row with his parents because of her.
Scumbag, are you deaf? Are you stupid? Stop the car now! Or I will jump out of the car window right now!
Zhao Anan got so anxious that her palms started to sweat. She kept urging Mu Qing to stop the car.
I am not going to Family Mu. None of them like me. Why should I go and annoy them?
Those words stabbed right into Mu Qings heart.
He braked the car suddenly.
Nonsense! Who dare dislike you? You are my woman and they have no right to makements about you.I will reason with whoever that dislikes you.
When Mu Qing got furious, so did Zhao Anan. She screamed. You father, your mother and your grandpa, everyone in the family dislikes me. I am not going to your home now, because they told me ten years ago that Family Mu would not want an unhealthy woman and that they didnt want me to ruin you.
Mu Qing got startled all of a sudden. A short whileter, he started to speak in a trembling voice. What... what are you talking about? They came to you ten years ago?
Zhao Anan stiffened. She had made a promise to Family Mu never to spill the secret.
But she had no other choice at the moment. She didnt mind spilling out everything as long as Mu Qing could be stopped from taking her to Family Mu.
Yes, they did. They said that I was sick and I mustnt marry you. So, please open the door and let me get off the car. I am not going to meet your family!
Mu Qing got furious all of a sudden. He bellowed in a hoarse voice, Why didnt you tell me about them? You just left like a silly girl and I couldnt find you anywhere. I am the one who is going to spend the rest of my life with you, not them.
After he finished bellowing, he swept Zhao Anan into his arms and held her so tightly that Zhao Anan almost suffocated.
After a long while, he said in a concerned voice, Anan, I am sorry, I apologize on their behalf. They did it all for me, and you can be angry or punch me as you wish.
Tears gushed out of Zhao Anans eyes suddenly.
She raised her hands and wiped them, feeling stupid to be teary eyed all the time these days.
She had not shed a single tear during the chemotherapy, but they came out of her eyes constantly for these worthless matters.
Why should he get scolded? He was an innocent man who loved her the most. She didnt want to put him into dilemma in front of his parents.
Zhao Anan extracted herself from Mu Qings arms and said firmly, I am not going to your home. I am going to my own home.
No, Anan, you muste with me today. Mu Qing started the engine and the car started to move forward again.
I will take you to them and exin everything. I want my family to know that I will marry no one except for you. They can be in charge of everything but I must be in charge of finding my own wife who is going to spend the rest of her life with me. I like you and that is all that should matter to them.
Zhao Anan got anxious. What was going on with this man? He was just so stubborn.
The white Jaguar reached a vi located in the outskirts, finally.
Zhao Anan had been cursing, biting and hitting him all the way, but none of those actions changed Mu Qings mind.
As the car was pulled over, Mu Qing got off the drivers seat, went to the other side and pulled out Zhao Anan from the passengers seat.
Zhao Anan refused to get out, but Mu Qing gripped her wrist tightly and threatened her. Do you want me to carry you in or do you want me to give you the needle first before carrying you in?
Zhao Anan walked into the vi with a bitter face, defeated by Mu Qings ruthlessness.
The vi of Family Mus was not enormous but it was very exquisite and located in a beautiful environment. There were numerous herbs nted in the garden and they gave out a pleasant scent of medicine mixing with the autumn air.
Two servants at the vi were picking the worms from the herbs carefully when they saw Mu Qing and Zhao Anan entering the ce. They greeted him courteously.
Greetings, Third Master!
Wee home, Third Master!
Mu Qing was ranked third ce in the generation, with two elder cousins before him and two younger cousins after him.
The younger male cousin disliked medical science, but the two elder cousins and the younger girl were all devoted to the same field. They were not as excellent as him, but they had all inherited the essence of Family Mus expertise in medical science. They had be outstanding doctors in different ces.
Family Mu had been a united and harmonious family. After Mu Wensheng decided to make Mu Qing as the heir of Family Mus Hospital, the other members of the family didnt object at all. They had been devoted to medical science through the years and had no interest inpeting for the family business. They were delighted to hear Mu Qing taking over the hospital, because he was a rare genius in the field of medical science and was a social man. It was totally reasonable that he took over Family Mus Hospital, which would definitely get better and better under his guidance. So would Family Mu.
Mu Qing took Zhao Anan inside as he greeted the two servants pleasantly, Aunt Bai and Aunt Lin, morning, morning!
Then he asked, Where is my grandpa?
The old master is in the backyard, he is with Family Jing...
Before the servant finished her words, Mu Qing took off in the direction of the backyard with Zhao Anan.
Chapter 334 - Meeting the Parents (Part Two)
Chapter 334: Meeting the Parents (Part Two)
As the two servants saw Mu Qing dragging a pretty girl inside, they both got startled. They exchanged a look with each other and noticed the surprise of joy inside their eyes CCould the Third Master have brought home ady-to-be?
Aunt Bai continued to pick the worms with pincers as she said happily, That would be wonderful! Third Master is not young anymore, and he should have a family of his own.
Aunt Lin also couldnt stop smiling. That is true! Fourth Master is two years younger than him but he is already married. Fifth Lady is engaged as well. Our Third Master is the only one left. Great, Old Master doesnt need to be worried any more!
Mu Qing took Zhao Anan into the backyard which was many times bigger than the small garden and led to the pavilion.
As they approached, they noticed that Mu Wensheng was not alone. Opposite him was a vital man dressed in a navy blue suit, Jing Tianyuan.
The two aged men got startled at the sight of them, forgetting the chess pieces in their hands.
Mu Qing greeted the two seniors courteously, Greeting, Grandpa Jing. I am here, Grandpa.
Zhao Anan had calmed down a bit after being dragged in by Mu Qing. She was here and she was open to any punishment. She could be scolded by old Mu or something else might happen. But she was not scared, because even her cousin Jing Yichen had been scolded by the old man as well.
She stood by Mu Qings side steadily and said loudly, Greetings, Grandpa Jing and Grandpa Mu!
With hand on his chin, Jing Tianyuan nodded at these two people with a stiff face and said, Hi, okay.
It had been a tradition that the men of Family Jing were the silent types. Jing Yichen didnt speak much and Jing Zhongxiu barely spoke. Grandpa Jing Tianyuan was even more silent. They always behaved like this towards those whom they didnt know much. As a matter of fact, Jing Tianyuan was an old and happy man. He fed birds and bred fish every day and argued with Mu Wensheng, totally different from his time as a young man.
Jing Tianyuan stopped talking and waited for the show to begin.
It seemed that Mu Qing was going to ask Old Mu for permission with Zhao Anan!
Jing Tianyuan knew about Mu Qing and Zhao Anan. He also knew that Mu Wensheng had been worried about this matter C he had already known that Mu Qing and Zhao Anan got back together.
Mu Wenshng had been thinking about separating the couple the day before when his grandson came to his door the following day.
Ha, he was right to be here. There was going to be a good show!
Hopefully Mu Qing would be firm enough to annoy this old man, because he had just lost all games to him today and was very annoyed. Mu Qing was here on the right time to give Mu Wensheng trouble. It was great!
Seeing his grandson holding Zhao Anans hands, Mu Wensheng frowned.
He was just about to say something when Mu Qing said loudly, Grandpa, Anan and I are deeply in love with each other and I will marry no one except for her. I am here to tell you that we are engaged and I will be responsible to her only and she will only be with me! There is no way that you can stop us.
After Mu Qing finished his words, he left with Zhao Anan before Mu Wensheng could form any response.
Zhao Anan almost fell because of the pulling. She turned around and bid the seniors farewell. Bye, Grandpa Jing and Grandpa Mu!
What was that?
That was it?
They just left... in this way?
Jing Tianyuan almost gasped. What was Mu Qing thinking?
So boring!
Mu Wensheng got so furious of the manner in which his grandson had spoken with him.
This scumbag dared to talk with him in this way!
And he dared to get engaged without reporting about it first?
He even dared to threaten him!
He had bred an unfilial man.
Apparently, his grandson had rushed to him without preparation and spilled something to him without thinking before taking off hurriedly!
When would this scumbag grandson change his recklessness?
He had tried to exin to him so many times but he didnt understand or remember anything well.
Jing Tianyuans grandson, for example, was steady and mature. He didnt even frown even if heavens fell down and that was why he became a king.
His grandson was not a silly man and had been well educated. But he just didnt have the charisma of being dominating. How annoying!
But what Old Mu didnt think of was that he himself was not a man with a dominating personality and there was no way that he could make his grandson into one.
Jing Yichen was cold partly because of the genes. Family Jings men had always been cold and distant, not just him.
Mu Wensheng struck the chess piece upon the table and bellowed furiously as his beard shivered out of anger. This bastard is simply too troublesome! Why does he like that girl so much? What if she dies halfway? What would we do about the grandchildren of Family Mu!
He just wants to annoy me to death! Always being so impolite! What a waste to have bred him up to this age! It is so unfair that your grandson is so steady and mature when you have not spent so much time grooming him.
Jing Tianyuan red at him and said, Hey, old Mu, are you being silly or jealous of my grandson being steady and having a good wife? It is not unfair, it is totally fair!
He shouted and sounded proud, looking content.
Jing Tianyuan had an excellent grandson who could do everything and had developed Family Jing well and married a virtuous woman. The wife was good looking and healthy and had a good destiny too.
That was all that was needed to annoy Mu Wensheng!
Mu Wensheng could have argued with Jing Tianyuan in daily life, but what happened today was not a joking matter. It would be a disaster if his grandson insisted on marrying that sick girl of Family Zhao.
Even if Zhao Anan was able to live until 99 safe and sound and give birth to babies, yet cancer could be passed onto the next generation.
He didnt want his great grandson to get cancer too!
This concerned the generation of Family Mu and he will not allow Mu Qing to make a mess!
But Mu Qing had been brought up by Mu Wensheng and he knew his grandson well.
Mu Qing was an easygoing man in daily life but if he ever took anything serious, it would be impossible to change his mind.
Mu Wensheng scratched his unkempt hair annoyedly. He had toe up with a perfect method.
Chapter 335 - Meeting the Parents (Part Three)
Chapter 335: Meeting the Parents (Part Three)
While Mu Wensheng fell into a dilemma, Mu Qing walked with Zhao Anan into the vi and took her all the way up to the second floor.
In the small living room on the second floor, a middle-aged man dressed in casual clothes was reading a thick medical book sitting at the window. He resembled Mu Qing a bit, and the ck framed sses made him look elegant and quiet.
Next to him was a middle aged woman with a beautiful face. She was dressed in a dark green cheongsam with ck, smooth hair tied in a bun at the back of the head. She was making tea and the fragrance could be smelled across the living room.
The couple were not surprised at the sight of Mu Qing and Zhao Anan. Apparently, when they had gone to find Mu Wensheng, the servants had alreadye and given them a heads-up.
Dad, mom!
Greetings, Uncle and Aunt! Zhao Anan didnt show any embarrassment despite her hands tightly clenched by Mu Qing. Instead, she greeted Mu Qings parents in a natural way, sounding neither pleading nor arrogant, as if she were just greeting the seniors whom she had not seen for years.
Mu Qings mother was called Gu Huiru. She had a friendly smile on her face as she said in a fond tone, Hi, Anan. Come and have some tea, I have also made yam cake, which will be ready soon.
She ignored the way her son held Zhao Anans hands. She treated Zhao Anan as a good friend of Mu Qing and greeted her politely.
Gu Huiru was indeed a gracefuldy. She and Mu Bingrong, Mu Qings father had fallen in love with each other at the Ivory Tower and gotten married right after graduation. The following year, she gave birth to Mu Qing and her life had been smooth and wonderful with no setbacks or arguments with anyone. Her rtionship with her husband had been harmonious and she had been devoted to her father-inw and son.
Gu Huiru was not an independent woman. Most of the time, she would obey her father-inw and her husband or her son. But on some asions, she harboured independent ideas.
Like at this precise moment.
Many years ago, her father-inw and husband disapproved of her sons rtionship with Zhao Anan, iming that her sickness waspletely incurable and that it would return even if she was healed and there would be potential danger buried for the generations toe.
But she didnt agree with it. She thought that as long as her son liked her, he should marry Zhao Anan even if she could only live up to one year.
Must he give her up just because she was sick?
Zhao Anan must have also not wanted to get sick. She was already in a very bad situation then why must she be given up? She had been pregnant with her sons child and if she had given birth to the baby back then, she would have got a grandson and be a grandma.
Her son, Mu Qing had been brought up by Old Mu, so Gu Huiru felt that she was not so close to her son as much. If Mu Qing ever got a son, she would definitely try her best to get close to her son being the grandma of his child.
Wasnt her father-inw an excellent doctor? Mu Qing was getting very proficient too. If they couldbine forces and help Zhao Anan, she was certainly going to give birth to a healthy baby.
Gu Huiru had always been spoiled by her husband and hadnt faced any setbacks, so she always considered everything positively. Mu Bingrong sitting next to her, however, was not positive at all.
He frowned as he threw a look at his son and Zhao Anan holding hands and said unhappily, What do you think you are doing?
Mu Bingrong was a conservative man and such men tended to be stubborn and conventional.
Mu Qing had grown up with Mu Wensheng who did not follow the rules. So he resembled his grandpa more than his own father in personality.
Mu Qing ignored his fathers words. He had no intention of releasing her hand.
He stood on the spot and said with a clear and determined voice, Dad and mom, I have decided to marry Anan. Dont reach out to her without my permission, you can juste to me instead. It is my decision to marry her and she has nothing to do with it.
Having heard what his son said, Mu Bingrong struck the table hard, making the tea set on the table tter.
Nonsense! Marriage is not a joking matter!
Gu Huiru got startled. Her husband rarely got angry nor was he a very talkative person. He was usually a good natured man.
Mu Qing ignored Mu Bingrongs fury. He had married his beloved woman. Why couldnt he get his own?
Dad, Mom, pick a nice day and take the marriage proposal to Family Zhao. We are off now!
Having said the words, he took Zhao Anan and ran downstairs. When they ran into another servant in the living room, he greeted her by nodding and saying hello inposure.
Mu Bingrong got so annoyed that his fingers trembled.
He had always been a well behaved man who might not be as excellent as his father or his son in medical science, but was also an outstanding doctor . He was always respected wherever he went. But today, his son dared to talk with him in such a rude way.
He even asked them to take the marriage proposal at Family Zhao?
His son had always been an obedient boy who took responsibilities very seriously. He was also a filial man. But he dared to say something so irresponsible today.
Zhao Anan had health problems and he had indicated to his son many times that he should find a healthy woman to get married, no matter what kind of woman she might be.
Otherwise, the bloodline of Family Zhao would be cut if Zhao Anan couldnt give birth to babies.
This had everything to do with the development of the family, so Mu Bingrong was very serious. Mu Qing was his son, the most excellent heir of Family Mu whom everyone had high expectations from. Both of them hoped that Mu Qing could have a son who could surpass Mu Qing and inherit the medical science of Family Mu and take Family Mu ahead.
How did he end up with Zhao Anan? Didnt they break up? When did they get back together again?
A momentter, Mu Bingrong regained hisposure.
Gu Huiru took a white handkerchief and wiped off the tea that had sshed out because of his striking the table. She had a friendly smile on her face. Zhao Anan is the only girl our son has been fond of and serious about. Look, he even brought her to us. Anan seems like a nice girl, good looking and charismatic. She and my son make a cute couple.
Mu Bingrong smiled bitterly. The girl is okay in everything except for her health...
Even father cant cure her?
Mu Bingrong shook his head. Not even our father. He is not a God who can cure everything. If our son marries Zhao Anan, we would basically not have any grandchildren.
Gu Huiru couldnt help but get startled.
No grandchildren?
So no one would keep her sonpany when he got old?
Well, I better ask father what it is going on.
Having said the words, Mu Bingrong went downstairs, leaving Gu Huiru bewildered.
Chapter 336 - I Hate You (Part One)
Chapter 336: I Hate You (Part One)
In the swanky Jaguar, Zhao Anan was sitting on the passengers seat, expressionlessly. But she was not as calm inside the heart as she looked on the outside.
She was feeling both bitter and moved by what had just happened.
Mu Qing had taken her to his parents and grandpa to make a deration of his intention to marry her.
Zhao Anan felt that she had got the most fearless man and his unconditional love and she could now go away feeling satisfied.
Mu Qing had no idea what Zhao Anan was thinking, so he turned to her and said, You are impressed, arent you? Well, I am not an ordinary man. I brought you home for a sudden attack. They will have no time to n anything. We will be done by then.
Zhao Anan had also done something simr before. She was not a very obedient girl and had always done whatever that popped into her head, especially when it was against her mother.
But right now, she couldnt allow Mu Qing to do this.
His family seemed to be against his idea of marrying her. She didnt want Mu Qing to have a bad rtionship with his family, because he had always been a filial man with a strong sense of responsibility. It must have been the first time for him to argue with his family.
She didnt say a thing after hearing what Mu Qing said. In one month, Shangguan Ning was going to hold her wedding. One more month, she was going to leave and never return.
Mu Qing kept talking. I will force them to send the proposal to your home. We will get engaged formally when they send the proposal. Then we will get married. At that time, we will invite as many people as possible so that they all get to know that I am not single any more.
In the evening, Mu Qing went back to Family Mu alone.
In therge study full of medical books, Mu Wensheng was seated on the chair and spoke calmly. He didnt look like someone who was going to scold anyone. Are you sure?
In a determined tone, his grandson replied, I am sure.
No regrets?
No regrets.
Have you forgotten about me now that you have got a girl? You dont care about what I think anymore?
Grandpa, I ... Words got stuck in Mu Qings throat.
He had a deep regard for his grandpa, much more than what he had for his parents. Grandpa was the man whom he had admired since he was young. He believed everything he said and followed whatever he asked him to do. For him, grandpa was a man who could look into the future and make the wisest decision.
But this time, he was going to disappoint his grandpa.
Grandpa, I have checked Anan many times and I have felt her pulse. I cant guarantee that Anan would be fertile, but I am 70% certain that she will be able to live on. I dont care about being childless, but my heart will bepletely hollow if I dont have Anan in my life. I wont be happy if I marry someone else and have children. Grandpa, I dont want to live a life like that. I have to do whatever I want this time, alright?
Mu Wensheng sprang up from the chair and hit hard on the back of Mu Qings head.
You little bastard, are you crazy? Why didnt you inform us first before bringing her in and then leaving after saying just a few words? Am I still alive for you? I better die right now instead!
Mu Wensheng scolded him fiercely, What do you think the girl would think of me? Should I separate you two by force? Are you so stupid as to make it look like as if you were trying to cut off ties with us. It seems that I have taught you in vain for thirty years. Why havent you grown up a bit?
Jing Tianyuan wasughing at me today. Oh grandson, you better earn some pride! You are not as smart as his grandson, and your wife is not as healthy as his granddaughter-inw!
What do you mean that you are 70% certain about her health? Even I dare not be so boastful. Dont you know that you mustnt brag and be careless while talking about offspring? I better hit you to death, little bastard, for wanting to do whatever you want. You should thank me for giving birth to three sons when I was young, otherwise the bloodline of Family Mu would have been finished if I only had your father!
He hit him again, this time on his butt.
Mu Qing ran around in the study with hands over his head as he shouted in pain, I know I am wrong, Grandpa, please! I will definitely bow to you and kowtow to you next time. No more hitting! My butt is ruined. I am your grandson, you cant punish me in this way!
...
Jing Tianyuan caught sight of Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran standing against each other in the living room when he returned to Family Jing.
He shook his head and went straight in as if he had seen nothing.
Neither of them would die, anyway. So they could fight however much they wanted.
Jing Tianyuan didnt care much about the issue of Shen Lingbings death. He had a son and a grandson who could deal with everything. He didnt need to get involved at all.
Jingsheng is not yours only. I have shares too and I will get more. Do you think you can stop me from going there just because of this stupid reason? You are too conceited, Jing Yichen!
Jing Yiran smiled wickedly. He looked like his usual self as if Shen Lingbings death hadnt affected him at all.
Jing Yichen stared at him coldly. He spoke heartlessly, Jingsheng is mine, always has been and I have the right to decide everything. It doesnt matter how many shares you have, because you, a bastard, will never get even a tiny bit of Family Jings properties. I am just here to inform you, not to discuss with you. There is no room for any bargaining.
Hahahaha...
Jing Yiranughed wildly as he pointed at Jing Yichens nose. You are scared, arent you? You are scared that I would get hold of Jingsheng and take over. That is why you dont want me to go there anymore. Haha, you are nothing more than a paper tiger. Well, I will...
Before he finished the words, Jing Yichen gave him a sudden kick so that he was thrown away far in the distance.
With a loud banging sound, Jing Yirannded against the hard wall. The crash made him bleed and his handsome face was full of agony.
Ran!
Mo Lan screamed. Her heart almost bled seeing that Jing Yiran was hurt so badly.
When she heard that the two brothers were fighting again, she hade running there, fearing that Jing Yiran would lose. But she was toote yet again!
Chapter 337 - I Hate You (Part Two)
Chapter 337: I Hate You (Part Two)
Mo Lan hurried to Jing Yirans side and held him in concern. She turned around and snapped at Jing Yichen, Chen, what is wrong with you? Why are you hitting your brother again? Do you really want to kill him?
Jing Yichen stood rooted on the spot like an exquisite sculpture. He wore a very cold expression on his face and said, He asked for it. But I have promised dad not to kill him. So he wont die.
Mo Lan shouted in tears, You keep saying that he asks for it. You can hate me if you want to, because it was I who wanted to keep Ran. But why do you bully him in this way? Come and vent your anger on me if you want to, I have just a few years left and I can take your anger. No more hitting Ran!
Jing Yichen was just about to leave when he heard her words and stopped.
His fingers were tightly clenched together and he no longer looked calm. Instead, he looked vicious and twisted. Hate you? Of course I hate you!
He gazed at Mo Lan as if she were not his grandma but his enemy.
Even if Jing Yiran is innocent, he will still be under my feet. Jing Yichen sounded chilly. His words were like a knife that stabbed right into Mo Lans heart. He is innocent? Well, so was my mother. Why did she die at the age of 28 then?
Pay me back with one life! Jing Yichen pointed at Mo Lan as he bellowed furiously, Pay! Me! Back!
Jing Yichens loud voice echoed across the living room CPay me back, pay me back.
Seeing Mo Lans whitened face, he sneered coldly, Cant afford it, can you? My mother died an innocent death. She did nothing wrong. But she had to ept the truth that another woman had borne her beloved mans son!
I lost my mother at the age of 3. I dont even know what it feels like to call someone mom. What a blessing for me, huh?
Mo Lan had never seen Jing Yichen in this way.
He had always been distant and cold, but he was never this ruthless and cruel, at least not towards her.
He was distant, but he had never disrespected her as a senior.
She said in panic, Zhang Rong is already dead . She already paid. Ran is innocent!
Jing Yichen burst intoughter, but he didnt sound amused. Hisugh brought chills into Mo Lans heart.
Jing Yichen said, Yes, she is dead, but she died too easily and toote. I had been merciful enough to allow such a vicious woman to live for so many years. Who is that man that freed her in advance? I will definitely find him and make him suffer. How dare he kill the person who was meant to be killed by me.
Why did my mother have to tolerate everything when the mistake had been made by you? Why must you all be alive when she is alone in the graveyard with the ghosts? Did she deserve that? No, she was just too kind to not kill the woman who came to the door, pregnant.
Jing Yichen stared at Mo Lan with bloodshot eyes. He didnt treat her as his senior at the moment and sneered. You were just selfish to want more offsprings for Family Jing. Then why didnt you turn to my father? Why didnt you make grandpa marry some more women for more sons?
He sounded increasingly rebellious, but Mo Lan didnt have any strength to give any counter arguments.
Holding Jing Yiran, she was shivering badly. She looked white as a sheet.
Jing Yichen ignored her expression and sounded fierce like a sharp knife. How does it feel when I vent the anger upon you? Are you satisfied? Do you think that just because I am your grandson, I dont dare say anything to you? Sorry, I always regard family as nothing, and I am not going to behave as a young man in the family, because no one has taught me how to respect seniors after I turned 3!
Do you know why I hit your beloved grandson? Because he wants to get what belongs to me, he wants to snatch Jingsheng from me. You better teach him and tell him that everything of Family Jing is mine and he can only dream about it. He will get nothing.
Having said the words, he ignored Mo Lans pathetic condition and left the house.
Jing Yichen had already calmed down after he walked out of the vi and went into the car.
He had always had good control of himself. If Mo Lan had not mentioned his mother today, he would not have gotten so furious.
If he could bring his mother back to life, he would do anything.
As long as his mother could stay alive.
But it was not possible.
Mo Lan had made an irreversible mistake and he couldnt persuade himself into showing her a good face.
She always favored Jing Yiran no matter what happened. Well, it was fine with him because he didnt need Mo Lans care.
He came to Family Jing to give a warning to Jing Yiran because he had been so greedy that he wanted to coborate with an outsider. It had nothing to do with their old family affairs.
Ji Bo had called him this afternoon and demanded that Jing Yiran should be the representative for the coboration between the two enterprises and that only Jing Yiran and Shangguan Ning should be allowed to handle the financial department. Otherwise he would not allow his financial team to stay in Jingsheng for further coboration.
He knew pretty well that Jing Yiran was trying to give Jingsheng to Family Ji.
Jing Yichen sneered C Ji Bo, you are too greedy to stay healthy!
Coboration?
Well, I am the decision maker and final voice at Family Jing. But you are not the decision maker of Family Ji.
Jing Yiran had already caused enormous trouble for Family Jing because of Shen Lingbing and now he was aiming at Jingsheng. He was living a smooth life, wasnt he?
Ji Bo had even thought about taking Shangguan Ning in? He seemed to be too bored with his life, wasnt he?
Jing Yichen drove the car back home.
Seeing Shangguan Ning busy in the kitchen, he gradually became calm and coldness left his body.
Shangguan Ning turned around and saw him. She came to him and gave him a spoonful of the chicken and sea cucumber soup she had just made. Try and see if it tastes good. I picked up the recipe from Uncle Du!
She had a bright smile and looked very proud, making Jing Yichens heart soften.
He drank the soup and said with a smile, Very tasty, Chef Shangguan.
Chapter 338 - Pregnancy Test
Chapter 338: Pregnancy Test
Hearing Jing Yichen praise the soup, Shangguan Ning got so happy that her eyes twinkled.
She pushed the entire bowl of soup to Jing Yichen. Then you can drink it up. The soup is very nutritious!
Oh well... that is not necessary. I mean, we should eat dinner instead. Sister Lan will have the rice ready soon. Jing Yichen was busy thinking about how to get rid of his wifes amazing soup as he stared at the bowl in her hand.
The soup was way too salty. He would be full of water if he drank it up.
Shangguan Ning knew exactly what he was thinking when she saw his expression.
With the bowl in her hand, she chuckled so much that she almost couldnt keep her back straight.
Jing Yichen finally realized what was happening. Baby, you set me up. How evil you are!
The chef Old Du had got all the dishes ready. He removed the hat and the apron as he said smilingly, Master, Lady is just tricking you. Here is the soup she made. That bowl she gave to you is full of extra salt.
Jing Yichen shook his head helplessly and said with a smile on his face, I knew that my wife couldnt make such terrible food.
Sister Lan put the rice on the table and went out with Sister Fang and Old Du. Shangguan Ning had offered them an apartment on the sixth floor so that they coulde to make food and clean the apartment whenever they were needed.
Jing Yichen washed his hands and sat down at the food table. Staring at the new bowl of soup which Shangguan Ning had given him, he took it cheerfully and said, No extra salt this time, right?
Shangguan Ning blinked. Try and you will know!
Jing Yichen took a sip, lifted the bowl and ate up the sea cucumber and chicken slices from the soup in one go.
One more bowl!
Shangguan Ning asked happily with an excited expression, Is it tasty? Is it tasty?
Yes, very tasty! You have got the secret ingredients from Uncle Du. It tastes exactly the same. He is a top chef and you are making rapid progress.
Jing Yichen had a slight smile on his face. He was exaggerating. Shangguan Ning wasnt gifted in making food and the soup that she had made was not half as good as Old Du.
But it was already great that she had managed to make the soup to this degree within such a short period of time.
He was always tolerating and spoiling his wife.
Sure enough, after hearing what Jing Yichen said, Shangguan Ning was delighted. She took the soup he gave her and started to drink in small sips.
I am not so good at using the wok, but soup seems simple. It is always easy to learn making soup. It is just about adding water and spices, one after the other.
Jing Yichen felt helpless hearing her exnation.
A real good soup would be much harder to make than woking dishes. There was much more to it than just adding water and spices.
But he would always support Shangguan Ning no matter what she did. She could make okay soup, so he drank it up.
After dinner and shower, the coupleid down on the bed.
Jing Yichensrge hands were caressing over her smooth back, making her shiver.
But when his fingers reached out for the inside of her skirt, Shangguan Ning took hold of his hands.
She said with an unsteady breath, A bit tired today. What about tomorrow?
A touch of gleam shed across Jing Yichens eyes. He would never force her but he kissed her fiercely before saying, I will let you go this time, but you will have to make up for itter.
Shangguan Ning snuggled in his arms, thinking about something else.
The following morning when the dawn had just broken, Shangguan Ning tiptoed out of the bed, sneaked a peek at Jing Yichen who was still fast asleep, took out something from the bag and went into the bathroom.
She waste. She had bought the pregnancy test yesterday and decided to use it this morning.
She was looking at the red lines on the pregnancy test carefully when the door of the bathroom was suddenly opened.
She got startled, dropping the pregnancy test on the floor.
Jing Yichen walked in half-naked and said smilingly, Pregnant?
He said as he picked up the pregnancy test from the floor, observed it a bit yet didnt understand a thing. He had never seen this before. Nor had he used it before.
Shangguan Ning said in a disappointing tone, No, just one line, meaning that I am not pregnant.
Jing Yichen burst intoughter seeing her so sad.
He tossed the pregnancy test into the dustbin. He picked up Shangguan Ning, walked out of the bathroom and ced her gently onto the bed.
He leaned upon her and said cheerfully, Baby, do you really want to give birth to a baby for me so badly?
Shangguan Ning held his neck and puckered her lips. Why havent I got pregnant? Do I have any issues?
Jing Yichen buried his head into the crook of her neck and chuckled. His breath tickled Shangguan Nings chest. Then she started tough along with him. She had seemed a bit too eager.
A long whileter, Jing Yichen looked up into her eyes and said, Baby, you dont have any issues. You would if you were pregnant. I was away on business during your ovtion period. How could you possibly have gotten pregnant. Silly girl!
Shangguan Nings eyes widened. Oh really? I dont even know how to calcte the ovtion period. How did you know how to do that?
Oh, well, he had never known how to calcte such a thing for women. He mustnt make himself look suspicious.
I looked it up on the inte after I married you. I remember clearly about your period date and that makes the calction easy.
Jing Yichen slowly undressed his wife as he said in a low voice, It is okay, I will go nowhere next month and fill you up every day. You mustnt beg me for mercy.
Shangguan Ning almost copsed after being touched by him. She said anxiously, No more messing around. It is daytime, time for work. Release me now.
Jing Yichen took one of her nipples into his mouth as he mumbled. No need to hurry... let me bring you happiness first...
Her body was beautiful.
She had white, tender skin that was wless. Her breasts were plump and waist was slender. Her legs were well proportionate and long. Even her feet were rosy.
Shangguan Ning pleaded in a small voice while feeling stimted. Yichen, please, dont...
Jing Yichen kissed her pasionately and said hoarsely, No, baby, you must say... please... do me...
Chapter 339 - The Real Zheng Lun (Part One)
Chapter 339: The Real Zheng Lun (Part One)
Jing Yichen didnt let Shangguan Ning get away in the days that followed.
He had learnt several new ways to please her so no matter how much Shangguan Ning asked him to stop during the night, he would refuse.
Shangguan Ning now had a trail of kisses marked all over her body. She felt both angry and embarrassed. She finally knew what it was like to irritate Jing Yichen.
He believed that her pregnancy test had challenged his dignity as a man, so he was trying his best to prove his ability to her.
The following morning, Shangguan Ning received a call from Zheng Lun who invited her and Zhao Anan over lunch at her home.
Shangguan Ning epted the invitation instantly. Jing Yichen would have taken her again if she stayed at home.
She cleared her voice. Yichen, Zheng Lun has asked me to visit her at her home. I am off now, you can have lunch by yourself.
Huang Lihan and Jing Zhongxiu had gone hiking, so their weekend dinner was canceled.
Jing Yichen pushed Shangguan Ning against the wall leaving no space between the two bodies.
Oh really? You forget about me when you have a new friend? I dont want lunch, I want you.
He kept blowing air in her ears, tickling her.
Shangguan Ning tried to push him off with her hands but she started to flush and called him by his name. Yichen...
Jing Yichen had just been teasing her. But he got very pleased hearing how she called him by the name.
Yeah? One more time.
Yichen...
Yeah, another name.
Shangguan Ning clenched her teeth and called out, Honey...
A long whileter, Jing Yichen was satisfied. He walked out with her. I will drive you there, dont stay out toote. I will pick you up at night.
...
Family Zhengs home was a bit far. Shangguan Ning reached the destination after almost one hour.
Jing Yichen kissed her lips softly and drove off after he saw her entering the house.
Shangguan Ning had arrived earlier than Zhao Anan. Zheng Lun hugged her happily and guided her inside.
Family Zhengs vi was very well decorated. Apparently, thedy of the house was a woman who loved life, because there were flowers and grass everywhere, and some jars containing fish, tortoises as well as fewid-back kitties who werezing under the sun.
Mrs. Zheng came out of the kitchen, hearing the voices.
Seeing the elegantdy next to her daughter, she thought of her to be Shangguan Ning whom her daughter had talked about.
She greeted Shangguan Ning in a friendly way. You must be Ms. Shangguan. Come and take a seat. Lun has been talking about you all the time. Honestly, you are much better looking than I had imagined. Those stars on TV are less pretty than you!
Her daughter had always been introverted and timid. She had never brought any friends home and barely socialized with anyone. As a result, she didnt have any close friends.
During the past few days, Mrs. Zheng found her daughter getting more outgoing and she kept talking about Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan all the time.
She was very happy to see her daughter change. Therefore, she had started to make the preparations two days in advance when she heard that the daughter wanted to bring them home for a meal.
She was happy to see Shangguan Ning when she met her and saw her exchange some intimate talks with the daughter now.
Shangguan Ning was moved by the hospitality of this fit and wealthy looking woman. She said cheerfully, Thank you, Aunt, it is the first time for me to hear suchpliments. I am almost as old as Lun, so you can just call me Ning.
She gave a present to her. Aunt, this is a little present from me to you and Uncle. I am good friends with Lun, so she doesnt get any.
Mrs. Zheng epted the present andughed. What Shangguan Ning had said made her very happy C apparently, she was in a close rtionship with her daughter.
She talked with Shangguan Ning as Zheng Lun led Shangguan Ning to the living room. Then she asked the servants to serve her tea, fruits and snacks.
The three of them chatted for a little while when Zhao Anan arrived.
Zhao Anan was outgoing and cheerful, bringing vigor to the entire room.
Seeing that everyone was at present, Mrs. Zheng went to deal with her own matters, leaving space for her daughter and her guests.
It was the first time for Zheng Lun to receive guests and that too her close friends. She had been a bit nervous about not receiving them properly.
But when they sat chatting so happily at this moment, she was no longer nervous.
She noticed that Shangguan Ning was interested in theyout of the house, so she said softly, I ced everything randomly at home. I like doing something with those nts during the free time. Should I show you around?
Shangguan Nings eyes widened and said with a smile, Sure, I will need to pick up something from you.
Zheng Luns home was definitely not as she had imed ced randomly. Everything was well matched. The nts she had, were growing beautifully, green and full of vitality.
Shangguan Ning felt that Zheng Lun must have learnt something about interior designing, otherwise she could not have created such a beautiful scene just randomly.
Zhao Anan knew nothing about those things, but she also felt that Zheng Luns home made her feelfortable. So she also went with them on the tour around the vi.
Zheng Lun wore an expression of pride when she was presenting the design and the objects in the vi. She knew everything about it, ranging from the color and the designyout. She talked in such a way as if she had be someone else.
I painted the wall myself. I had not wanted to make the wall at home so colorful, because the general decoration of the house was in browns. A colorful corner might have looked inharmonious. Butter, I felt that I could mix the dark blue, tomato red and turquoise together, and the colorful look might make the house even more vigorous. That was why I painted it with this color...
Shangguan Ning asked with a smile after hearing what she had been talking about. Lun, have you studied interior designing?
Zheng Lun nodded gently, Yes, I used to learn painting butter I found designing even more interesting. So I started to study designing instead.
On the colorful walls there were many pictures of Family Zheng and the journey of the brother and sister from childhood to adulthood.
Zheng Lun saw a picture and said happily, Lun, you seem very outgoing as a little girl!
Zheng Lun looked at the picture and her smile tightened. She said softly, That is not me. Thats the real Zheng Lun.
Chapter 340 - The Real Zheng Lun (Part Two)
Chapter 340: The Real Zheng Lun (Part Two)
The photos looked really old, yellow patches could be seen upon the pictures.
In one of the pictures, there was a little girl with braids who was dressed in a set of ck and white costume of knights. She was sitting on a galloping horse, disying a wonderful smile. She had one front tooth missing, and looked cheerful. She seemed like an outgoing girl, smart and funny.
Shangguan Ning got so startled by what Zheng Lun said that it took her a moment to recover.
She looked through all the pictures on the wall and found that Zheng Lun on all the pictures looked the same. Her appearance didnt seem to have changed since she was little, so Shangguan Ning couldnt have imagined that the girl in the picture was not the Zheng Lun in front of her eyes.
Then who was she if she was not the real Zheng Lun.
Shangguan Nings heart ached a bit. She was about to ask her but had no idea about how to go about it.
Zhao Anan was a straightforward woman, so she didnt hesitate and said, Ah, Lun, so you were really picked up from the street by your parents?
It was not a secret. Zhao Anan had heard about it ages ago, but she hadnt been certain and had not feltfortable enough to ask her this kind of question.
Seeing that Zheng Lun mentioning this matter herself, she just couldnt control her curiosity anymore.
Shangguan Ning wanted to zip her mouth after hearing Zhao Anan speak.
Unexpectedly, however, Zheng Luns fingers went over the picture on the wall and a soft smile hovered upon her face.
Yes, you are right. I was picked up from the street, not by my parents but by my brother.
She turned to look at her friends and smiled, showing no grief.
Want to hear the story? Come, lets talk upstairs.
There was a ce close to the window on the second floor that had been turned into a cozy living room. A patterned screen was ced in the middle for tea hours.
The three of them sat down and Zheng Lun made tea for her friends with a smile.
As the scent of tea spread across the room, Zheng Luns soft voice arose in the room.
The first thing she said, gripped Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anans heart. I used to be a little beggar staying with a human trafficker.
I was skinny, tiny and timid. I was not fed enough and beaten every single day. At that time, I thought that it was normal because the children around me were being treated just the same.
Zheng Lun still looked frightened and agonized while talking about it.
The events of her childhood had cast an enormous psychological impact on her heart.
I was hungry and cold and in pain every day. But that was not what I was most frightened of. What I was most frightened of was to be locked in an isted, freezing basement with no light because of which I am still scared of darkness and need to have the light on when sleeping.
Shangguan Ning held Zheng Luns hands in her own and said softly, Lun, you dont need to tell us anything more. It is all history, long gone. Dont think about it anymore!
Zheng Lun disyed a grateful smile and shook her head. It is okay. I am not sad about what happened, because I dont remember much about it. I was very young, only six or seven years old. I am not even sure how old I am right now, because I am treated as the real Zheng Lun.
My name is Qiqi. I had many beggar friends who were named randomly. I remember that I might have been called Qiqi because thats what everyone else called me.
I got fully fed for the first time when I ran into my brother.
Zheng Lun had a happy expression on her face. Apparently, Zheng Jing had brought unprecedented brightness and warmth in her life.
He held me the moment he saw me and called me Lun. He was crying. When he got to know that I was starving, he bought me food. Butter, he was beaten up by the human trafficker who imed that he was kidnapping children. But the following day, he came to me again with his parents. He pointed at me and said that I was his sister.
Mother took me into her arms and kept crying. She asked me to call her mother. I obeyed and that made her cry even more. I was frightened and started crying too.
Zheng Lun looked at the woman through the patterned screen. She was happily busy.
Then she said softly, I really do look like Zheng Lun. Mother said that even my voice resembles hers.
Then I was brought home by my parents. They adopted me as a child. At that time, dad was the Deputy Director of Public Security Bureau, so the human trafficker was sentenced and imprisoned. The beggars were sent back to their own parents or to the orphanage.
My life changed tremendously. I really turned into a princess from a beggar. I got food and clothes and a family who loves me so much.
It was not untilter that I understood that I had been adopted because I resembled their little girl. My mother never concealed the truth from me. I reced Zheng Lun and became her daughter. She has been taking great care of me up to the present day.
Zheng Lun paused and the smile on her face disappeared gradually.
She said in a low voice, The real Zheng Lun got leukemia... medical science was not as developed twenty years ago. She only survived for a few months until she... when I came to this home, she had already been dead for half a year.
So when I suddenly appeared at Family Zheng, all the neighbors were astonished. They had no idea why the child who had disappeared was back again. Then they got to know that I am not the real Zheng Lun, but a girl who resembles her. But I have a totally different personality from the real Zheng Lun who was outgoing and open. I am timid and shy. Also, because we have an age difference or because I didnt grow enough due to malnutrition, I am much shorter than Zheng Lun.
As Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan listened to her recounting the old story in a soft tone, they finally understood her real personality and why... she could have fallen for her own brother.
They were not real siblings.
Apparently, Zheng Jing regarded her as his real sister and judging from how Mrs. Zheng talked and behaved, Zheng Lun was truly regarded as her own daughter.
It seemed that Zheng Lun could only keep the affection deep inside her heart. They were not real siblings, but they were almost like siblings. They couldnt possibly change their identities so easily!
Chapter 341 - Zheng Jing’s Girlfriend (Part One)
Chapter 341: Zheng Jings Girlfriend (Part One)
After hearing Zheng Luns story, Shangguan Ning felt her heart ache for a long time.
Everyone had a difficult life and Zheng Lun had been really lucky to run into Zheng Jing when she was young, otherwise she might not have had a long lifespan with the human trafficker.
Apparently, that was what Zheng Lun also thought.
She poured the tea for Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan and said smilingly, I am already very grateful to have a family like this. I want to serve my parents when they grow old to express my gratitude.
Zhao Anan had only heard about the rumor that Zheng Lun was not her parents real daughter. Today after she heard the story, she knew that she had had a very bad childhood.
She decided not to bully Zheng Lun any more.
Also, she was going to help Zheng Lun to pursue her real love.
No one said that siblings shouldnt get married. They were not real siblings, and they could get married if they wished.
She had a different ideology from Shangguan Ning who was a bit conservative. She did whatever she wanted otherwise she would not have gotten pregnant at the age of 17.
After talking about her past, Zheng Lun suddenly felt that a load had been lifted from her chest.
She used to get very anxious when some children asked her if she had been picked up from the street and her real parents had abandoned her.
But after growing up, she knew clearly that her parents regarded her as their real daughter and pampered her in every possible way and that they would never desert her.
Same went for her brother who loved her and did whatever he could as a brother.
Therefore, she was now brave enough to reveal her past to other, not because she wanted to be with her brother but because they had given her confidence and courage.
For so many years, she had never considered finding her real parents. When she first came to Family Zheng, Mr. Zheng had tried to find the parents for her but failed. After Zheng Lun grew up, she herself had lost the interest to seek them.
She regarded this ce as her home and everyone in the family regarded her as their treasure. She had never thought about going back to her real parents.
She didnt know whether her parents had sold her or had she been kidnapped and brought to A City. The past was blurry in her memory. The only hazy memory that she had was that there was one person who kept scolding her and said that she was useless andzy and that she shouldnt be kept at home any more...
They were talking when Mrs. Zheng asked them toe downstairs for lunch.
They went downstairs and sat at the table. As they watched Mrs. Zheng and the servant putting out the strawberry cake, they were suddenly reminded of the scene when they had tossed cakes at each other. All of them burst outughing and became cheerful.
They had not yet started the lunch when Zhao Anan rushed to the living room and brought the tortoises from the living room to the dining room. She said excitedly, Lun, howe you managed to keep so many little pets alive?
What did that mean?
Shangguan Ning felt helpless about Zhao Anan who kept saying strange words.
Why cant I seem to keep them alive? Lun, can you give me two of them?
Zheng Lun smiled gently and said, Of course, here are the two biggest ones for you. It is very easy to keep the tortoises. What you need to do is to feed them every single day so that they can live well.
Zhao Anan got really pleased as she brought out a small turtle and fiddled with it. The little turtle nestled inside the shell, refusing to show its head.
Zheng Lun looked at Shangguan Ning and said, Ning, do you want one? I will be happy to give a couple of them to you.
Shangguan Ning shook her head instantly, No, thanks. I am not that patient or good. The turtles would suffer if they live with me.
She had not had a good experience of keeping pets, because the kitties and dogs which she kept as a young girl, died one after another and she had been devastated by their deaths, fearing that she had killed them. Butter, she got to know that they died due to the poison which Yang Wenshu had gotten for her.
If the pets she kept, died, she would be sad for a very long time. So she decided not to keep pets any more.
The three of them were talking when a servant from Family Zheng walked in happily. She said to Mrs. Zheng, Lady, Master is here!
Mrs. Zheng got slightly startled and smiled, This boy, he talked about not returning home for lunch this morning but here he is. Good that I prepared more food, otherwise Luns guests would not have got any. He can eat a lot. In fact, he can eat a huge cow for one meal!
Zheng Lun also heard the servants voice. She couldnt wait and rushed out.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan got up and followed her out.
They had juste to the living room when Zheng Jing walked in.
Zheng Lun went up happily and called him. Brother...
She had just spilled the word when her voice stopped.
Because Zheng Jing was not alone. Next to him was a slender and tall woman who was holding onto Zheng Jings arms. They looked like a couple.
Zheng Jings face paled instantly. What greeted her eyes almost broke her down.
Shangguan Ning sensed that something was not right. So she gestured to Zhao Anan and they came to support Zheng Lun on each side.
Shangguan Ning greeted Zheng Jing courteously, Greeting, Officer Zheng, who is thisdy...
Zheng Jing could see his sisters reaction but pretended to ignore it. He greeted Shangguan Ning, Hello! Lun has been talking about inviting you over and mom has been making full preparations for your arrival. Do have fun today! Mom cooks well!
He then presented the girl next to him in a very formal way. This is my girlfriend, Zhu Ruotong. She is also a police officer. We attended the same military school. Ruotong, this is Shangguan Ning...
Zheng Lun didnt hear any words that followed afterwards. What she had heard was my girlfriend and then she felt her heart break.
So brother had got a girlfriend now...
Was she soon going to have a sister-inw?
Why did she feel as if heaven had fallen down...
Chapter 342 - Zheng Jing’s Girlfriend (Part Two)
Chapter 342: Zheng Jings Girlfriend (Part Two)
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan greeted Zhu Ruotong with a smile as they sized her up, secretly.
Zhu Ruotong was dressed in a set of ck casual clothes and had short hair. Her skin was bronze and she had excellent facial features. Her lips were plump and her ck eyes were sharp, making her look like a qualified soldier.
She resembled Zheng Jing in some ways. Maybe that was because she was a police officer as well.
Zhu Ruotong greeted Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan and then turned to Zheng Lun. Hi, they call you Lun, can I call you by that name too?
Zheng Lun stood there still, looking just like a doll that had lost the soul. She had no reaction towards what Zhu Ruotong said.
Zhu Ruotong frowned.
Shangguan Ning tried to drag Zheng Lun back but she didnt respond. She let out a short cough and showed a very insincere smile and exined to Zhu Ruotong as if trying to cover up something. Eh... well, Lun is a bit sensitive to strangers. She will get better when you spend more time together!
Zhu Ruotong looked relieved as she said smilingly, It is okay.
But she was confused inside. Sensitive to strangers? She was not a child!
Also, Shangguan Ning was apparently trying to put up a show. She was a police officer and she could tell if a person was telling the truth or not. She understood people.
Shangguan Ning didnt care either if Zhu Ruotong could tell if she was trying to cover it up. Zhu Ruotong was a calm and rational woman who would soon discover Zheng Luns secret, because even Shangguan Ning had been able to see the truth over one meal. She truly believed that an excellent policeman like Zhu Ruotong would discover this secret sooner.
She pinched hard at Zheng Luns waist, trying to wake her up.
But Zheng Lun turned out to bepletely absent-minded!
Shangguan Ning let out a sigh inside her heart C Zheng Lun was just too deeply involved.
Shangguan Ning tried to keep the situation down, because she didnt want to expose Zheng Lun too early. But Zhao Anan had no idea about how to keep the situation down.
She walked forward and gave a pat upon Zheng Jings shoulders. Then she looked him up from head to feet and snorted. Well, well, Zheng Jing, I didnt expect that you are faithless enough to have a woman both inside and outside the home. Tell me, when did you guys get together? And how far have you gone? When do you guys n to break up?
Her words were getting very aggressive. She talked as if Zheng Jing were some scumbag.
Zheng Jings face went dark after hearing what she said.
What did she mean by one inside home and outside home?
He had no woman either inside or outside, alright?
And when he brought his girlfriend home, she even dared to ask about when they were going to break up?
Honestly, this girl was simply brainless! Only Mu Qing was able to tolerate her!
Zheng Jing would have thrown Zhao Anan out, if he had not known her for a long time.
But Zhu Ruotong looked calm standing next to Zheng Jing. She had figured out the truth within a few seconds.
So the woman inside the home was none other than his sister, Zheng Lun.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan were silly women who had underestimated their rivals brain and analysis ability. They lost the battle within a few seconds.
In fact they had carried the stones to smash their own feet.
Mrs. Zheng was helping around in the kitchen with the servant. After they finished making more dishes and came out of the kitchen, everyone else was still standing at the door.
She spotted a woman holding onto her sons arms and got happy. She ran to the door in excitement. Son, this girl is your girlfriend?
Zheng Jing nodded and then introduced them to each other.
Zhu Ruotong had a slight smile on the face and said, Greeting, Aunt, I am so sorry I havent brought any gift to you this time. We will make it up to you the next time I am here.
Mrs. Zhengughed happily. It was the first time for her son to bring a girlfriend home. He was a mature and steady man who would not bring a girl home unless their rtionship was more or less fixed.
I am already very happy now that you are here. No need for any present,e and take a seat! She said as she showed the girl in and said to the servant at home, Aunt Wu, one more set of chopsticks!
Mrs. Zheng walked in first, followed by Zheng Jing and Zhu Ruotong. Shangguan Ning with the other two girls were the only left at the door. A long whileter, Zheng Lun came back to her senses.
But she looked terrible. Her red lips had turned white and her face turned pale.
Zheng Jing quietly nced back at her.
The way his sister looked broke his heart. But he could do nothing but to allow her to get sad.
He had brought Zhu Ruotong home today, because he expected that Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan could at least console her so that she wouldnt get overwhelmed.
Zheng Lun ate little food and imed that she was feeling unwell and went upstairs to rest.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan also put down the chopsticks and followed her.
But soon, they were driven out. Zheng Lun didnt want to talk to anybody and she didnt allow them to enter the room.
It got very weird around the table without Zheng Lun.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan were guests of Zheng Lun who wasnt at the table. When Zheng Jing found that his sister was not around, the delicious dishes tasted like chewing wax and he had to force himself to smile by talking with Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan as if everything was normal. After all, they were Zheng Luns guests who had been deserted by the hostess. What was more, when Zheng Lun was a guest at Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anans homes, they had had a great time together.
This was his fault. If he had not brought Zhu Ruotong home, then everyone would have been cheerful.
Zhu Ruotong, as a matter of fact, didnt care about Zheng Luns absence. She had a good appetite and kept eating and praised Mrs. Zheng for her great cooking skills.
Mrs. Zheng was indeed happy. She kept giving her food whilst prying about her family background and work. She was treating her as seriously as her potential daughter-inw.
As a matter of fact, Mrs. Zheng was not that happy either, because she knew pretty well what her daughter was thinking. She had brought up her daughter and knew how she felt about Zheng Jing.
But she regarded Zheng Lun as her daughter and she couldnt possibly allow her to be with her son. They were siblings in her eyes!
It worried her a great deal.
Chapter 343 - Impossible
Chapter 343: Impossible
Zheng Lun didnt even appear after they finished lunch and Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan left.
When Zheng Jing and Mrs. Zheng saw them off at the door, they looked really apologetic. After all, their daughter had invited them home whilst she kept herself locked in the room all the time, being impolite.
But neither Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan cared about that. They knew Zheng Lun well enough to understand that she didnt desert them because of arrogance. They realised that she was at the edge of breaking down and couldnt handle anything else.
After Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan left, Zheng Jing proposed that he would drive Zhu Ruotong home.
Zhu Ruotongughed and said, No need, I can go home myself. Your sister is feeling unwell. You better go upstairs and check up on her. I am off.
After she finished the words, she left.
Seeing Zhu Ruotong leaving, Mrs. Zheng let out a sigh.
She seemed to be a very broad-minded and smart girl. But it seemed that she would not be returning here again.
She thought that Zhu Ruotong and her son made a cute couple. She was straightforward and shared the same background as her son. More importantly, she was his college ssmate and seemed to be a nice person.
What a pity.
She patted her sons hand and said softly, Son, go up and check on your sister. Dont make her cry. She has been a part of the family from the moment she joined us. She is deeply connected with your sister and we mustnt make her sad.
He nodded and walked upstairs.
His mother always felt that Qiqi and Zheng Lun were somehow connected. They looked so much like each other that she was a gift from God who gave her another when she lost one.
Therefore, she treated Qiqi better than her real daughter. She could give whatever Qiqi wanted.
She was worried that she would lose this girl too, so she must treat Qiqi well.
She always felt that Qiqi was living the extended life of her daughter. That was why she couldnt ept the fact that her daughter had fallen for her son.
But she knew that no one except her son would be able to console her and bring her out of grief at this moment.
Zheng Jing opened the door of his sisters room and closed it softly.
His sister was sitting on the bed, covered with a nket, uttering no sound.
Zheng Jings heart ached. He came to her side and removed her nket.
Lun! He called her by the name in a low voice. His heart felt anxious that he almost lost control.
Zheng Luns eyes were closed and her hair was unkempt. She looked pale and traces of tears were visible on her cheeks. Her lips had fresh wounds on them.
Hearing her brothers voice, Zheng Lun opened her eyes slowly and tears gushed out of them.
Seeing her brothers handsome face so close to her, she suddenly sat up and threw herself into his arms and cried out loudly.
Brother, I am so scared... are you abandoning me? Do you hate me? Am I that useless?
Zheng Jing stiffened but held his sister tightly after a second. He patted her back gently and said with a firm voice, Silly girl, what are you thinking? I will not abandon you. You are always my sister and I will always like you.
Zheng Lun was already in tears. She just couldnt believe what her brother said.
But you have a girlfriend already and she will be the only one in your heart. I will not! Brother, I dont like her!
Zheng Lun never hated anyone. But it was the first time for her to dislike Zhu Ruotong, who looked graceful and broad-minded.
She knew that she was being jealous.
She hated herself for behaving like this.
But she couldnt control her emotions. She just could not stop liking her brother.
Zheng Jing said inside his heart CQiqi, I also dont like her.
Zhu Ruotong was just his working partner and his colleague. She was more like a man than a woman and had a very rational mind. He had always regarded Zhu Ruotong as a man.
But what he said was, Lun, Ruotong is nice, and suitable as my wife.
Zheng Lun got startled. Her fragile heart cracked and broke down within a second.
Lun, dont you want me to get married?
Zheng Luns tears gushed out and her heart screamed C No, absolutely not!
Then who should I marry if not Zhu Ruotong?
Me!
I am 32 years old and I should get married now. Mom and dad have urged me too many times and I cant dy it any more. You are not young either and you should find a boyfriend, too.
I dont want a boyfriend. I want you!
Zhen Lun just couldnt say that out. Her heart was roaring and within a second, she lost all self control.
She held Zheng Jings neck, and kissed him.
Her kiss was bitter yet strong as if she had turned into a totally different person.
She kissed him recklessly and Zheng Jing became numb. Zheng Luns soft lips were so strong against his that he felt himself tremble.
His sister had gone mad!
She had dared to kiss him so boldly.
Wasnt she always a timid girl?
Zheng Jing tried hard to push off his sister but she stuck to him tightly and smeared kisses all over his lips. She didnt know how to kiss. All she did was put her lips against his.
That was his sisters first kiss.
And his too.
God knew how much he wanted to take Zheng Lun into his arms and taste her sweetness.
He wanted to pry open her teeth, feel her silken tongue and kiss her deeply.
He wanted to feel her incredibly fragrant and soft body. Suddenly, he felt a bit of pain. Zheng Lun had bitten open his lips.
Her lips were already bloody and when his blood blended with hers, he got into a near frenzy by thatbination.
But rationality overcame his affection, finally. He pushed Zheng Lun off firmly.
Lun, we cant do this. You know clearly that we are siblings and we mustnt kiss.
Zheng Jing sounded hoarse and his eyes were full of suppressed desire. He couldnt stay confused any more. He had to spill it all.
You mustnt like me. I am your brother and it is impossible between us, understand?
Chapter 344 - Rumor of Family Jing
Chapter 344: Rumor of Family Jing
After hearing Zheng Jing saying that there was no chance between them, Zheng Luns emotions that had been pressed down for so many years, burst out.
She lost the rationality, entirely. Her love for Zheng Jing had broken through her personalitys drawbacks and she became incredibly brave.
She stripped off her dress and only had the white underwear on. Then she threw herself upon Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing was again taken aback.
This was totally different from how she usually was.
She was obedient and timid. He could have never imagined her doing anything like this.
But now, she had started to take off his as well.
Zheng Jing pushed Zheng Lun onto the bed and then got her under him as he struggled to take hold of her hands and ced them over her head.
Are you crazy, Lun? Do you have any idea of what you are doing?
Zheng Jing bellowed. That was the first time for him to get angry at her ever since she was adopted.
Zheng Lun couldnt help but cry constantly. She had gotten close to her brother so much so that she could hear his heartbeat. It sounded powerful and fast!
He was angry.
But she was angry too.
I am crazy, Brother. I have been crazy for a long time. I like you. Can you like me, too?
Zheng Jing said firmly, No, I cant! I am your brother. Lun, what you dont understand is that you are not in love with me. You are just dependent on me. You have known very few people to understand what love means. You will know clearly when you are in love.
Zheng Luns eyes were swollen by now. She shook her head firmly. No, Brother, you are wrong. I can tell the difference between love and dependence.
My heart beats fast whenever I am with you. I miss you every day and I want to be with you all the time. I have never had such feelings towards anyone like this before. You mustnt think of me as some immature girl who cant differentiate between passionate love from family love. I can! I have different feelings for you and for mom and dad!
Zheng Jing had never expected that his attempt at persuasion would make his sister confess to him.
This was not what he had expected.
How could things get out of hand like this? It was making him uneasy.
He had never expected that his timid sister would ever do or say anything like this.
Her supple body was lying under his and her soft voice pulled him towards her. He was feeling more and more tempted.
Zheng Jing felt his heart ache. But it was a bittersweet ache.
He loved a woman who loved him back. He just couldnt control his affection. What he had been doing was to dodge the issue by rejecting that feeling.
I have the same feeling towards you, dad and mom. Lun, I only regard you as my sister.
Zheng Jing stood up slowly and said this to Zheng Lun with his back facing her. Mom and dad wouldnt want to be judged by others. Do you want them to get sad?
He had no choice but to use his parents as a bargaining chip.
She had always been a filial girl who would never make her parents sad.
Sure enough, his words worked. Zheng Lung got startled and gradually calmed down.
She buried herself in the nket and said with a muffled voice, I understand now, Brother, please leave me alone.
Zheng Jing walked out of the room, closed the door and lost all hisposure. He leaned against the door in depression, feeling incredibly agonized and dispirited.
...
Jing Yichen was already waiting for her outside Family Zheng when Shangguan Ning walked out.
As he drove his wife home, he found her wearing a heavy expression.
What is it? Didnt have fun? You dont need toe again if you didnt enjoy. Zheng Lun doesnt have a good personality.
Shangguan Ning smiled as she turned to him. She is just shy, not weird. Something happened at her home today, so it ended up being bad.
She recounted the entire incident to Jing Yichen and waited for him to react to it.
A whileter, he was still silent.
Jing Yichen felt a bit wronged as he saw her ring at him. I have only been in one rtionship. I am not a veteran. We are all adults, why think so much about someone elses issues?
Shangguan Ning knew him well. Anything that had nothing to do with him would not make him involved. It was aplete waste of time and energy for him.
She shook her head and decided to put down this matter for now. No one else would be able to help Zheng Lun in this matter apart from herself.
She picked up a newspapers kept in the car and leafed through it.
Soon, the headlines made her frown.
Aristocratic daughter died at home with murderer atrge C Jingsheng Empire dominates.
Second Master of a business empire rapes girls C a demon.
Stock price falls of Jingsheng Enterprise, no more properties worth of hundreds of billions and no more capital chain.
Splitting of Jingsheng Enterprise, two heirspeting with one another for inheritance.
...
All these were false reports yet they made sense. Many people who knew nothing about the facts would easily get swayed and boycott Jingsheng altogether.
Shangguan Ning couldnt sit still any more. She said furiously, Yichen, those news agencies reported fake news. Are they attacking and ndering Jingsheng? Wont they have to answer to legal responsibilities when they keep ndering us and affecting the daily operation of the Enterprise?
Jing Yichen replied calmly, So you also think that it is a vicious attack and a ndering attempt? But, do you think that these agencies publish the news themselves?
Shangguan Ning got startled. So are you saying that some people are hiring agencies to nder us? Do you think that it is Family Ji or Jing Yiran himself?
Jing Yichen showed a slight smile on his face and praised her. Clever girl. You are right! They wouldnt dare publish such negative news against Jingsheng if they didnt have anyone backing them. Do they think that they have found a strong supporter? Well, they will soon know how unwise their decision was.
So have you got a way to solve these issues? Shangguan Ning got slightly assured seeing his arrogant face.
The newspaper was a tremendously powerful instrument andrge losses might be caused due to it.
Jing Yichen was in charge of the overall situation. If he had thought of methods to deal with the issues, then there shouldnt be any problem.
Jingsheng wouldnt get influenced by these issues. What they wanted to do was ruin Family Jings reputation. They are not aiming at Jingsheng but Family Jing. Someone just cant wait to start a battle!
Chapter 345 - Jing Yichen Struck Back (Part One)
Chapter 345: Jing Yichen Struck Back (Part One)
Ji Bo had been in a good mood recently.
For one thing, he had bought 0.5% of the shares of Family Jis Enterprise at a good price. He had been trying to get as many shares as possible, slowly. Together with the shares which he inherited from his father, he now had a 23% stake in thepany, bing the biggest shareholder amongst everyone in Family Ji!
As a matter of fact, if he married Ji Lili, then his shares would grow by 12% and be 35% instead.
But he didnt want that.
He would rather marry Lan Yu who was vicious and full of conspiracies. At least after Lan Yu married him, she wouldnt disgust him. In this world where the weak were taken over by the strong, he regarded Lan Yu as someone important, but he would never give Ji Lili even a single nce, although she had 12% shares to her name.
He had tried so hard to control Family Jis Enterprise not because he wanted to get more money or power. Instead, he just wanted to take control of his own life.
Therefore, he would not marry a brainless and disgusting woman for small benefits like wealth and power.
The news reports about Family Jing had already created excellent results. The stock price of Jinsgheng had been dropping for three days in a row and many staff at Jingsheng were considering moving somewhere else. Ji Bo had alreadye to a preliminary agreement with these senior employees who could leave Jingsheng anytime ande to work for Family Jis Enterprise as soon as they made up their mind.
This must be the biggest blow that Jingsheng had received during the past few years.
Because the blow came from inside thepany. With Jing Yiran as the mole, Jingsheng would copse within a short period of time.
Ji Bo fiddled with the red wine goblet as the sunlight of the autumn days shone through the ceiling-to-floor window into the office and fell upon him. His tall and strong silhouette cast a small patch of shadow upon the carpet behind his back.
A firm knock arose at the door.
Ji Bo didnt turn around. Instead, he said in a gentle voice, Come in!
The office door was opened as his secretary walked in wearing ck high heels.
President Ji, Deputy President Shi from Jingsheng is here. He is waiting for you in Meeting Room 1.
She had a clear and warm voice. It sounded just the springtime that was gentle. She sounded so much like someone.
Someone whom he simply couldnt forget.
Ji Bo didnt turn around, because the moment he turned around, his joy of hearing the voice would be ruined.
Okay, anything else?
The secretary paused and then said again, Your fiance, Ms. Lan called just now and said that she is going to visit an old friend tonight, so she cant go to the movies with you. She sends her apologies.
Lan Yu had been showing off their closeness in this manner. It was just an excuse that she was going to visit an old friend.
She barely went out. Even if she did, she would go out in darkness, dressed like a quiet ghost who could kill someone in just one stroke.
She was a vicious woman but also a pathetic one.
Therefore, Ji Bo had no reaction to what the secretary said. He stayed immersed in that voice of hers, imagining that she was someone else.
The secretary reported a few things briefly and JI Bo said gently, Alright, I see. But he didnt ask her to leave.
The secretary had been with Ji Bo for three years. She had no idea what feelings this gentle and capable Deputy President, had for her. He seemed to like her a great deal, because most of the time he would take her out for work. But at the same time, he seemed to dislike her a great deal, because he never spared her more than one look. He smiled kindly at her, but still possessed an authoritative stance. His smile was, as a matter of fact, full of hidden coldness.
But she knew that Ji Bo always listened to her carefully no matter what she said, as if what she said was very important.
Therefore, she asked boldly, President Ji, Deputy President Shi has been waiting in the meeting room for more than forty five minutes. Are you going to receive him now?
Sure enough, Ji Bo didnt sound angry at all. Instead, he said smilingly, Okay, get ready and lets go and talk with Mr. Shi.
The secretary nodded and walked away.
Two minutester, Ji Bo took the secretary into the meeting room.
The middle aged man dressed in a suit, stood up at the sight of him and shook hands with Ji Bo with a bright smile. President Ji, I am Shi Qingshan from Jingsheng Enterprise. Deputy President Shangguan is too busy with other things, so I will be responsible for the financial coboration with Family Jis Enterprise. Please ept my greetings.
Ji Bo had talked with Shi Qingshan before and understood that Shangguan Ning was relieved of the responsibility of the financial business. So he didnt change his smiling expression and greeted Shi Qingshan politely.
They were both deputy presidents of their enterprises, so they hit the discussions straightaway.
Shi Qingshan brought out a document from his briefcase and gave it to Ji Bo smilingly. President Ji, this is the new coboration contract signed between Ji and Jingsheng. ording to the contract, we will have a coboration in overseas business.
But as you know Jingsheng is not so good at financial operation. So Ji will need to give us ten more financial business executives and open all the financial channels to Jingsheng. Our revenues will be divided as per the contract. I am here today to discuss this matter with you.
Ji Bo got startled and then his heart fell into the bottom of the ravine. The smile on his face disappeared gradually as he said with slightly trembling fingers. When did I sign the contract with Jingsheng?
Oh, did I not make myself clear, Deputy President Ji? You didnt sign the contract, Ji Minjue, the President of Family Jis Enterprise did.
Shi Qingshan purposefully stressed Deputy President Ji.
Ji Minjue was Ji Bos Uncle, Ji Minyus brother who used to be the Mayor. Ji Jiameng and Ji Ling were his son and he was the real decision maker of Family Jis Enterprise.
Ji Bo was just the Deputy President of Family Jis Enterprise.
Ji Bo got so annoyed that he almost tore apart the contract.
Ji Minjue had signed a contract with Jingsheng without telling him. He was kept in the dark!. If Jingsheng had not sent anyone here today, he would not have known what Ji Minyu had done to him.
But could a contract with Jingsheng be signed so easily? He had been working so hard for half a month now and spent endless efforts and energy upon contacts just to make sure the situation became advantageous for Family Ji.
But Jing Yichen had beaten him down with just one piece of paper!
No, he had not only been beaten down but was also going to lose all of the financial business which he had been umting for the past eight years.
Ji Bo would bepletely destroyed if he lost the financial business!
Chapter 346 - Jing Yichen Struck Back (Part Two)
Chapter 346: Jing Yichen Struck Back (Part Two)
How dare Ji Minjue do that!
Financial business belonged to Ji Bopletely. He was in charge of the business and it was he who had brought it up little by little. How could he ever do anything like that? Also, he didnt keep the financial business but gave it away to Jing Yichen.
Ji Minjue was Ji Bos uncle. Unlike Ji Bos father, Ji Minjun, he was an ambitious businessman. He coborated with his sister Ji Minyu when he was young so as to develop Family Jis Enterprise to make it stronger.
Butter, he became overweight and started to suffer fromplications. Due to excessive wine consumption and too many sexual activities, his body became useless and hence he let Ji Bo take over the Enterprise. But he didnt leave the position of the President, and gave Ji Bo the rank of a Deputy President. He was still manipting everyone, being the President.
When Ji Bo took over Family Jis Enterprise, he was only 21 years old. He was a genius in the generation of Family Ji and was much more hard working than Ji Minjun who wasid back and enjoyed life.
Although he was only 21 years old, he was already quite outstanding. He had been approved by the olddy of Family Ji and managed to take over Family Jis Enterprise.
Ji Minjue had wanted to let his son and daughter take it over together, but none of them were as capable as him. Also, his children had been much younger than Ji Bo C one was 18 and the other, only 15 years old. If they were the ones to take over Family Jis Enterprise in the future, the entire family would go bankrupt within two years.
Ji Bo had already established his own ce in the enterprise with his hard work. He had developed the financial business all by himself and brought inrge amount of capital for Family Ji so that the enterprise now enjoyed an advantageous position in all fields with the business of pre-period investment and development.
Therefore, Ji Bo was getting more and more influential in Family Ji and was mostly likely to rece Ji Minjue.
Because he was not only capable but also had arge group of capable people. What was more important was that his shares grew year after year overtaking the 20% stake which Ji Minjue had in his hands.
Ji Minjue had more shares at one point in time. When Ji Bo took over the enterprise years back, he had given 5% shares to his nephew just to keep him obedient. When Ji Bo grew stronger, he gave away 15 % shares each to both his son and daughter to restrain Ji Bo and hence he ended up having only 20%.
But Ji Minjue had been trying to improve his health during the past two years and had not interfered in the decisions of the enterprise. In fact, he had no capability to interfere Ji Bos financial business area. That made Ji Bo be less cautious.
Now, Ji Bo almost couldnt control his own emotions. He was at the edge of breaking into fury!
When his secretary saw his eyes gleaming with anger and veins popping out, she got startled!
Ji Bo was known to be a gentleman, elegant and graceful. He barely lost his temper. He had only lost his temper just a couple of times and that too because of one single man.
Could it have been because of... that legendary Jing Yichen again?
Ji Bo struck hard on the table and startled the secretary. Shi Qingshang, who was sitting opposite him, seemed to have predicted that such a thing would happen, so his expression remained unchanged. He still had the smile on his face and his next words added fuel to the me. Since Deputy President Ji is not in a good mood, I cane backter. Or, I should go to President Ji for a talk instead, otherwise my trip here would be in vain.
He had apletely different attitude towards Ji Bo now as if he was looking down on him because Ji Bo couldnt make the decision.
Ji Bo clenched the contract in his hands and said, As you wish, Deputy President Shi!
Shi Qingshan wasnt treating him nicely and he did likewise.
Financial business was his work, built with his blood and flesh. It was the root for the rest of the Family Jis Enterprise. None of the other businesses would work well without the operation and support of financial capital. But now when the contract was signed, Jingsheng was taking everything away from him.
Ten executives?
He only had 16 people in the elite team and one of them had been sent to Jingsheng, already. If ten more were sent to Jingsheng, then there would only be five people left in the team of Family Jis Enterprise.
Opening all the financial channels for Jingsheng?
The financial business of Family Ji would be eaten up within one year if the channels were opened for Jingsheng.
Without the enormous capital support, Ji Bo would soon lose every other business he had, because he had been devoted to middle and long term investment which would not give enormous profits within a short period. The real profits would onlye after five, ten or even twenty years.
For example, therge amusement park which he had just invested in building, would take at least four more years before the operation started. What he needed to do during the four years, was to keep throwing money into the project, which would be at least billions of yuan.
Where would this moneye from?
He had got all the capital through his financial business.
If the capital chain broke down, then all the investment in the pre-phrase would go up in smoke and he would be loaded with enormous debt.
Jing Yichen was definitely vicious!
A long whileter, the day turned into evening. Finally, Ji Bo calmed himself down.
He sat in the simple and elegant office alone, and read the contract three times, one line after another, carefully.
Then, he picked up the phone, and dialled the number of Master Jing. The call went through.
There was no use in finding Ji Minjue for anything. Although he would go to him, but it was not the right time. What he could do was try and solve the problem by reaching out to Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen didnt ignore him. After the ringer buzzed twice, the call went through.
President Ji.
Jing Yichens cold and distant voice came from the phone. It was impossible to tell if he was happy or furious.
Master Jing, I would like to have a talk about the financial coboration. Please join me for dinner tonight. It will be my treat!
When Ji Bo was talking with Jing Yichen, he felt pressured. Even if he sounded calm at the moment, he felt as if he couldnt breathe, because Jing Yichen had almost choked him.
President Ji, this is post office hours and I must eat dinner with my wife. I am not attending yours. You can talk with Deputy President Shi regarding the coboration instead, Jing Yichens cold voice sshed upon Ji Bos heart just like a wave of cold water.
Chapter 347 - Press Conference (Part One)
Chapter 347: Press Conference (Part One)
Jing Yichen was indirectly saying that there was no way that the contract could be changed.
Because Shi Qinsghan only obeyed Jing Yichen and would only talk with Ji within the boundaries of the contract. He had no right to change it.
Ji Bo sat back on the ck leather chair in depression, feeling that he had lost the battle.
He had made so many efforts but what he had managed to create was just a scratch on Jingsheng. But Jing Yichens tiny move would make him go bankrupt and saddle him with an enormous amount of debt.
Was he really that much worse than Jing Yichen?
He was just a stumbling toddler who had given Jing Yichen a punch. But Jing Yichen didnt feel a thing and could poke him to death with one single finger.
Jing Yichen hung up the phone and put it into the pocket. Then he started to walk towards the dining room.
Seeing himing towards her, Shangguan Ning took a sip of the soup and said with raised eyebrows, Ha, Master Jing, who was it on the phone so you needed to answer it in the living room? Bad reception here or you just cant show your kindness to others with me around?
Jing Yichen shook his head and burst intoughter. You are the only person whom I show kindness towards. As for the others, I just let them be.
He strode over and sat down next to Shangguan Ning. Then he pinched her cheek so that a red mark appeared on her tender face. He smiled.
Are you so jealous and scared that I will be taken away by someone else?
Shangguan Ning massaged her face and said in a nonchnt tone, Anyone who wants to take you away from me...
Will have no way to return intact!
Jing Yichen burst intoughter hearing what she said.
No one would dare to take me away from you. I have got a fierce wife at home and lets see who dares toe and irritate her. Jing Yichen added more soup to her bowl seeing that it was empty. Ji Bo called.
He didnt want to talk about it, but since Shangguan Ning asked, he had to tell her, in case she would misunderstand him for keeping a secret from her.
Shangguan Ning finally understood why he answered the call in the living room. He really wanted her off Ji Bo, even while on the phone.
She found it amusing.
Ji Bo and she were almost strangers. It was so childish of Jing Yichen to mind it so much.
Also, Ji Bo was apparently in a contradictory situation with Family Jing, because he was the culprit behind all the negative news of Jinsgheng. That made her impression of Ji Bo even worse! She didnt like anyone who badgered Jing Yichen.
Then why did he call you? It seems that you have nothing to talk about?
They had enough to talk about. They were in a very fierce battle against each other.
Jing Yichen got himself a bowl of soup and said calmly, True. He is just begging me right now, so I hung up on him. He will die soon, and I dont want to save him. Instead, I set him up. Do you think I am cool?
Shangguan Ning got startled and then amused. So self-obsessed!
Then she added. Self-obsessed and cool!
But you have to tell me how he reached this terrible state. Then you will be cooler.
Jing Yichen smiled and recounted the story as he ate the meal.
Any capable heir would have a dragging and incapable rtive. I have got one, so does Ji Bo. In fact, he has more of them. Thats why everything went so smoothly and I almost had to do nothing before Ji Bo got controlled.
Shangguan Ning knew that Jing Yichen was referring to Jing Yiran as the incapable rtive. As for Ji Bo, it must have been his cousins.
Actually, Jing Yichen had gone to Ji Ling and Ji Jiameng and promised that Jingsheng would sign the contracts with them before anyone else and that the revenue gained from financial business would be shared with the two with them. In the meanwhile, he also offered Ji Ling help in the real estate project development and aided Ji Jiameng with the operation of luxurious brands so that they could all be developed within a short period of time.
That was why Ji Ling and Ji Jiameng cooperated.
They gave the contract which Jing Yichen had drafted, to their father Ji Minjue for signing. And Ji Minjue took it.
Ji Minjue had wanted to do something about Ji Bo, ages ago. But if he really did something terrible to his nephew and gained nothing, then it would not have been good for him, either. If Jingsheng took them in and shared the revenue, then he would be happy.
In this way, his nephews power would be reduced and his children would stand to gain enough. That was why he signed the contract without hesitation.
I had not wanted to do that before, because we had always been in a positivepetition with Ji. I had not wanted to ruin thepetition, but Ji Bo ruined it first and I couldnt just stand by and let him do whatever he wants to.
Jing Yichen descaled a shrimp and ced it into his wifes te as he said in a spoiled tone, Eat, dont get startled.
Shangguan Ning felt her heart getting assured.
Nothing could baffle him.
He was a capable man who would take revenge for anything and from anyone who had done him a bad deed. When Family Jings reputation was ruined, Jingsheng was tremendously affected as well. So what he had done to Ji Bo was just a start. Many more external and internal attacks were yet to follow.
Sure enough, a press conference was organised at Jingsheng Enterprise, where the bad rumor was answered one after another.
The PR Department was in charge of the news release. Liang Fushi, the Deputy President of the department was in charge of answering every question. Jing Yichen was the most mysterious president of the enterprise who never attended any news conferences. But Shangguan Ning had tagged along, because she was curious.
The press conference was held in a building next to the office of Jingsheng Enterprise. The building belonged to Jingsheng too, but it was only used to disy the newest products or thetest promotional projects of the enterprise and for news release on some asions.
Liang Fushi had arrived at the press conference, and the exnation was ted to start soon.
Dressed in a ck suit and high heels, Ning stood next to Mi Xiaoxiao and looked out at the journalists through a ss door.
Thanks to Shangguan Ning who was the Deputy President and the wife of President, Mi Xiaoxiao had been promoted to be a Deputy Director of PR Department, out of turn.
Chapter 348 - Press Conference (Part Two)
Chapter 348: Press Conference (Part Two)
The day when Mi Xiaoxiao had heard about her promotion, she treated Shangguan Ning to a fancy lunch and said proudly, That is very wise of you to rmend your friend. You can tell the President next time that he can promote me to be the Director, one without Deputy. It sounds nicer!
What Shangguan Ning had said, surprised her tremendously, You became a Deputy Director? Since when?
Only then did Mi Xiaoxiao understand that it had been Deputy President Liang who had promoted her on his own and not because of anyones influence. Mi Xiaoxiao had got moved in vain. After all, Shangguan Ning didnt deal with public affairs with private favor!
But it was Shangguan Nings favor anyway.
Mi Xiaoxiao knew pretty well that she couldnt possibly be a Deputy Director with her own abilities. Apparently, Liang Fushi knew about her friendship with Shangguan Ning so he had promoted her.
She had established a greatwork just by sticking to Shangguan Ning!
Shangguan, why do I feel that you have put on some weight recently?
Shangguan Ning had been feeling a bit nervous to see such arge-scale press conference which she had never experienced before. Also, the press conference would be broadcast globally and if anything happened halfway, there would be a huge disaster.
But what Mi Xiaoxiao had said released her from the tension. She flushed.
Oh really? Maybe not, I have been this chubby for long.
Actually, she had gained some weight. Jing Yichen had been urging her to put in enough nutrients so as to make proper preparations for the pregnancy.
Shangguan Ning used to be too skinny with 168 cm in height and barely 50 kg in weight. Now she was 52.5 kgs instead.
But when she gained weight, her boobs seemed to get plumper than before. Jing Yichen also said that one hand was notrge enough to cup her boobs, the night before.
Shangguan Ning shook her head.
Oh god, she must have been crazy to think about what happened the night before!
It was all Mi Xiaoxiaos fault!
Shangguan Ning turned her head to look at her and snapped, Xiaoxiao, I think that you have gained some weight too! Look at your waist, your legs and your arms. You need to lose some weight.
She looked so serious that Mi Xiaoxiao almost believed her. She had been eating a lot of food, recently.
She looked down at her figure nervously. Really? Oh my god, I am such a pig. I keep eating all the time, thats why I have gained weight. What should I do? I have just got a new boyfriend but he has been very fickle. Do you think that it is because I have be fat? Bah, men are just cheaters. He loved me when I was slender and now he is showing such a bad face to me. I must lose weight and get skinny again so that I can abandon him and find someone more handsome!
Shangguan Ning was speechless.
She was just making a joke. Mi Xiaoxiao didnt have to take it so seriously.
Ms. Mi, please do not take my words too seriously. You are not chubby at all! You are as thin as a stick. I just made a joke and you believed it.
Women loved their appearance and body shape. Mi Xiaoxiao was not an exception to this.
But what mattered more was the press conference, which had just begun.
Mi Xiaoxiao had been in charge of handling press conferences from the beginning to the end, so she had learnt a great deal of things. She couldnt wait to see the achievement and she was not worried that anything unexpected would ur in the middle. A simple press conference would surely be performed excellently, otherwise the staff from PR department might as well resign.
Shangguan Ning also stopped talking with Mi Xiaoxiao after hearing Liang Fushis voice that announced the starting of press conference.
It was an excellent opportunity to promote Jingsheng through global broadcasting, one that Liang Fushi would not possibly miss. So for the first ten minutes, he was just making a presentation about Jingsheng.
Then he told the journalists to ask their questions.
After several journalists raised some irrelevant questions, someone started to ask sharp questions.
Please tell us, is the rumor that Jingsheng will be divided into half, true? Is it true that Jingsheng is splitting?
Liang Fushi didnt look very serious. Instead, he had a slight smile on the face and said through the microphone, As this fellow journalist says, it is just a piece of rumor thates from nowhere. I have been with Jingsheng for so many years and I have never heard of this. I can assure you fully that Jingsheng will never be divided and there will always be only one Jingsheng in this world.
But the journalist didnt seem to be convinced.
He continued. I heard that the two heirs of Family Jing are fighting fiercely against each other and both of them want to be the owner. It seems that there is no other way out than division. Will the enterprise copse if the brothers remain rivals?
Shangguan Ning threw a look at the journalist and got a bit annoyed by the question which he had put forward.
However, Liang Fushi answered leisurely, First of all, you have made a mistake. There is only one heir in Family Jing, same with Jingsheng Enterprise. Also, the two brothers of Family Jing are in a good rtionship with each other and theirs is a tightly-connected family. The reason why they are said to be rivals is because someone behind the scenes is trying to throw dirt at Family Jing.
The journalist raised couple of more questions which were answered properly by Liang Fushi without difficulties.
At that moment, some other journalists started to raise their hands to ask questions.
Why is the Second Master not in jail after Ms. Shen Lingbing was killed?
Have Family Jing bribed the Public Security Bureau when Second Master has been hurting so many girls from A City?
The questions were getting sharper and harder.
First of all, Ms. Shen Lingbing did not die because of Second Master. She was picked by Second Master for their engagement and he was also devastated by her death. Secondly, Family Jing has allowed the police to take over the case who have reached the conclusion that someone else is behind the case. Apparently, the killer aims at making Family Jing suffer by killing Ms. Shen.
If the Public Security Bureau can be bribed so easily, then I dont think that Jingsheng would ever need to host a press conference to rify everything, because in this way, we can also bribe the journalists, the news agencies so that only advantageous reports would be published for our sake. Everything Jingsheng does is legal and Family Jing will never try to save Second Master, if he evermits a crime.
Second Master is better looking than me and attracts girls...
When Liang Fushi spoke these words, he was apparently very amused, so were the journalists sitting there.
Chapter 349 - A Fight over Jingsheng’s Shares
Chapter 349: A Fight over Jingshengs Shares
But, Second Master has never forced himself on anyone, nor has he ever done any of the hurtful things as the news had imed. We have already gone through the legal procedures and ask the agencies for a response. The untrue negative news has seriously damaged the reputation of Second Master and we expect that thew will help us to defend our interests.
Apparently, some journalists were still dubious. Someone raised his hands and asked, But I heard that Second Master is grounded at home and it has been the Elder Master who has been handling the death of Shen Lingbing. He is also the President of Jingsheng Enterprise. Is he trying to get the charges dropped on behalf of his brother?
Liang Fushi showed a smile on the stage and said, As I said, our President is in a good rtionship with his brother and Second Master is resting at home because he has been devastated by Ms. Shens death. That is why President was present instead of him and paid a visit at Family Shen. It is a simple rtionship and journalists are weaving their own stories.
When the 50-year-old Liang Fushi imed the journalists to be making their own stories, the journalists chuckled...
The Q & A got cheerful in the second section.
Half an hourter, the press conference ended.
Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief seeing journalists rushing out of the room.
Mi Xiaoxiao stared at Shangguan Ning with a weird expression and poked her with a finger. My dearest Deputy President Shangguan, you didnt think that these were the real journalists, right?
Shangguan Ning got startled. What?
Did you not pick up anything during your time in the Department? You know nothing about the tricks of our trade. No wonder you looked so intense at the beginning. You took everything for real!
Mi Xiaoxiao had a helpless expression of you are so innocent on her face.
Oh, who was in charge of me when I was a disciple at the Department? Seems that some employees didnt teach me this little trick so I failed to pick up anything during my time there.
Shangguan Ning snapped back. It had been Mi Xiaoxiao who was in charge of her training at the Department. So it was her fault that she didnt learn anything.
The teacher didnt do anything. It was her fault.
Mi Xiaoxiao was dumbstruck.
Alright, it seemed that she really didnt teach Shangguan Ning anything. What she cared about at that time was how Shangguan Ning would be able to take down the President.
She held Shangguan Nings arms with a hospitable smile and called her Deputy President Shangguan. Then she exined to Shangguan Ning in a whisper.
Shangguan, those questions were staged. Deputy President Liang was reading ording to the script. If the real journalists were here, then it would definitely turned into a chaotic battlefield!
Every press conference is staged. Some stars shed tears on their apology meeting, because it is written in their scripts. When others throw dirt at us, we cant just throw dirt back. Instead, we need to hit them back through others. That would look more incredible.
Shangguan Ning nodded in contemtion.
Jing Yichen had mentioned to her that a press conference would be held just to aim at Ji Bo.
But she forgot about everything after she came to the site and got affected by the intensive atmosphere.
Of course, when all the answers would be evaluated, those who were cautious would discover that the negative news about Family Jing was fabricated.
Who was the one trying to frame them?
That would be the question in the publics heart.
Then the public would start to look for the answer whilst Jingsheng would carelessly leak some things until all the points would lead towards Family Jis Enterprise C the only family enterprise that could possiblypete with Jingsheng in A City.
Then the public would discover that Family Jis Enterprise were behind all the negative reports of Family Jing.
...
Jing Yiran finished watching the press conference seated on the sofa and had a sinister smile on his extremely handsome face.
He picked up the phone and dialed a number.
The phone went through and there was no sound from the other side.
Jing Yiran knew that he was listening so he said in a smirking tone, My good, good brother, so nice of you to help me rify everything. Does it feel good? Does it make you sick? Haha...
Jing Yichen on the other side of the phone, had no expression on the face. Instead, he said in a cold tone, You better keep a low-profile, otherwise I would send you to the prison and it would be great if you just die in prison!
The smile on Jing Yirans face disappeared gradually.
He knew that Jing Yichen always kept his words. If he had to be sent into prison, Jing Yichen would not care. Even if Jingsheng got affected, he would still send him in!
Jing Yirans expression turned dark and he spoke in a low voice, Jing Yichen, you are always lying to dad. You killed my mom and now you are trying to kill me too. Hahaha,e and see who will have the finalugh?
Jing Yichen still sounded expressionless and said, Of course I will be the one who remains. So you have to die.
Jing Yiran banged the phone on the ground.
As the customised phone smashed hard upon the ground, arge sound came. But it was not broken. Instead, ity quietly on the ground.
So Jingsheng wouldnt split up?
Of course not, he was going to be the only owner!
But right now, it had to split up!
There would be two heirs from Jingsheng.
A sinister smile spread on Jing Yirans face as he stood up from the sofa and walked towards Mo Lans vi.
During the past fifteen days, he had kept visiting Mo Lan and chatting with her. He kept herpany in walking, eating and shopping.
Mo Lan was delighted. She thought of him as someone obedient and understanding and filial, unlike someone who was cold and regarded her as an enemy.
After indulging the olddy for such a long time, it was time for him to gain what he deserved.
He was going to get the 10% shares which belonged to Jing Tianyuan!
Mo Lan had identally told him that Jing Tianyuan had no shares at all and the 10% belonged to her.
It seemed that God was also helping him. If the shares were Mo Lans, then they were his.
Jing Yichen had had a huge fight with Mo Lanst time. So he was definitely not going to get those shares!
Chapter 350 - The Evil Ambition
Chapter 350: The Evil Ambition
Mo Lan was in the middle of feeding the two parrots which her husband had brought from the Amazon.
She waved to her beloved grandson at the sight of him. Ran,e and listen to the new words that parrots have picked up from the TV. They are hrious.
Jing Yiran walked forward and said to the two parrots, What have you learnt, Little and Beauty? Say something to me!
Jing Yiran had named these two parrots, so that they sounded like Little Beauty together.
He was here often, so the parrots knew him well. They started shouting at the sight of him. Second Master, good-looking!
Jing Yirans sexy lips curved. This is an old phrase. Get a new one!
Little Beauty ignored him and continued to shout Second Master, good-looking. A long whileter, Little suddenly shouted, I want you!
Soon Beauty shouted too. I will fight with you!
Jing Yiran burst intoughter and Mo Lan also startedughing so hard that tears trickled out of her eyes.
After they yed with the parrots for a few more moments, Jing Yiran helped Mo Lan sit down on the sofa.
He said with a serious expression, Grandma, I am going to ask you for one thing. Can you give it to me?
Mo Lan smiled and asked, What do you want?
Your shares. Can you give them to me? Jing Yiran was speaking in a cajoling tone like a little boy asking his parents for candies.
Mo Lans expression didnt change. She was still wearing a smile as if she had expected to hear this request from her grandson.
She loved her grandson deeply and treated him better than Jing Zhongxiu did. She gave him everything she could and defended him as much as she could too, so that he could have a carefree life in Family Jing. But she was not a silly woman. She knew exactly what her grandson was up to.
He was a boy she had brought up. How could she have no idea of what he was nning?
She had only been pretending that she knew nothing.
She loved this grandson, because his birth hade at the cost of her daughter-inws life. She had always treated him as a precious treasure.
His mistakes were nothing in her eyes. After all, what he wanted to do was to be like Jing Yichen.
During the past few days, he had stopped going outside or hang with women in the bar. Instead, he was keeping herpany, patiently at home.
Mo Lan had understood then itself that her grandson wanted to get something from her.
He couldnt possibly have be someone else overnight. He was an impatient man who would not choose to chitchat with her and do all kinds of boring things with her for no reason.
But she had not expected that Jing Yiran would spell out his purpose in such a straightforward manner. She had thought that he would tell the truth after taking various roundabouts.
Ran, as you know I have 10% shares. I will give you half of those, what do you think?
As a matter of fact, Jing Yiran had guessed one thing wrong.
Mo Lan had wanted to divide her shares into half and give them to each of her grandsons, but after being scolded by Jing Yichen the other day, she changed her mind.
Now she wanted to give all the shares to only Jing Yichen.
She had felt really guilty towards Jing Yichen for a very long time.
Jing Yichen was absolutely right. He should hate her. She was the one who caused his mothers death because of which he never had anyone to call mom.
Mo Lan loved Jing Yichen as much as Jing Yiran. But no matter how much she did, Jing Yichen never became close to her. He was always so cold and it was so difficult to get into his heart.
Therefore, she ended up favouring Jing Yiran.
At least, Jing Yiran would lean into her arms as a spoiled child and would pamper her and keep herpany, for whatever purpose.
Jing Yichen had started to get further and further away from her once he turned ten.
He always looked at her from a distance. He never wanted to get close to anyone or allow anyone to get close to him since then.
Mo Lan knew that the reason why he had turned into such a man was solely because of hers.
So she wanted to give all of her shares to Jing Yichen to make it up to him.
Jing Yiran was brought by her as a spoiled child and he had not lost anything. She had nothing to feel guilty for, towards him.
But Jing Yiran had been behaving so abnormally during the past few days and it suddenly struck her that Jing Yiran desired those shares more than Jing Yichen.
So she made up her mind to divide the shares between the two brothers, equally.
However, Jing Yiran was not satisfied with only 5%. He wanted to get 10%, leaving none for Jing Yichen!
Grandma, brother has already got so many shares and even if you give me the entire 10%, he wont be affected by it.
Jing Yiran squatted down by Mo Lans side as he used to do and ced his head upon her knees.
Everytime Jing Yiran got injured because of Jing Yichen, he woulde crying to Mo Lan so that she could seek justice for him. Every time, he would put his head upon her knees, crying and pleading in a wronged tone.
He knew where Mo Lans weakness and drawbacksy. He also understood that Mo Lan would have figured out what he wanted when he kept herpany during the past few days.
What Mo Lan expected to see was that Jing Yichen and he could be in a harmonious rtionship like brothers and take Family Jing to a higher level rather than keep fighting with each other. Therefore, he didnt address Jing Yichen by name but called him brother instead.
He was confident that he was able to get all the shares.
Ran, I understand that these shares are nothing for your brother, because he has got more than 50% of the shares. He is now an absolute shareholder with Jingsheng under hisplete control. He wont be affected by my shares whether or not I give him any. But I am his grandma, and I have to show some of my love. I favor you more, but he has gone through so much bitterness since he was young. He lost his mother. I have to give him something. This is what I am supposed to do.
Also, I have not given him much as a grandma. But you have almost got every good thing of mine so much so that I have almost lost all the properties.
Mo Lan had belonged to a wealthy family before marriage as well. Her dowry was abundant and had never been touched by Jing Tianyuan after she married into Family Jing. She had full control of her dowry so after years of development, her personal properties had the worth in billions.
Arge part of those properties had been given to Jing Yiran.
The Royal Crown restaurant which he built as the most luxurious restaurant in A City was constructed upon thend that belonged to Mo Lan. When she heard that her grandson was going to open a restaurant, she had given the bestnd to him, dly.
Also, on Jing Yirans birthday every year, she would giverge presents to him, such as real estate,nd properties or shares of somepany.
Chapter 351 - Shares to Hands
Chapter 351: Shares to Hands
Years passed, and Mo Lan started giving out fewer and fewer things.
On Jing Yichens Birthday, she barely gave any presents.
The problem was that even if she gave something to Jing Yichen, he would toss it offter and more importantly, Jing Yichen had never celebrated his birthday after Zhao Qing passed away.
Mo Lan knew that he might not need anything from her, but if she gave him the shares, he will ept them because those shares represented the inheritance of Family Jing, and that was much more important than money.
That was why she was thinking about giving her 10% shares to Jing Yichen. After all, that was the only thing he would ept.
However, the grandson she loved most, wanted it too.
To whom should she give the shares? Mo Lan found herself in a dilemma.
Jing Yiran could tell that she was hesitating. He took hold of her wrinkled hands and said, Grandma, I want those shares because I want to keep myself safe. He doesnt have a mother, neither do I...
His voice got lower and lower.
He was actually very sad about Zhang Rongs death. She might have been annoying and evil, but she was his mother and should not have been murdered by others, easily. Most importantly, it had been Jing Yichen who murdered her!
I just feel that my brother is getting more and more capable whilst I weaker and weaker. I have got so scared by his punches and I believe that he wont leave me alone in the future. So I want some more things to keep myself safe, so that he cant touch me easily. Isnt that right, Grandma?
Mo Lan looked at this extremely handsome grandson and noticed that he was indeed feeling uneasy and anxious. Her heart softened.
Jing Yiran was right.
He had been punched by Jing Yichen hundreds of times when he was little and even till date, he was punched by Jing Yichen anytime.
Jing Yiran was not a child any more and he shouldnt be punched just because someone wanted to do so. On some asions, he had almost lost his life!
Jing Yichen was definitely going to hit him again. Who was going to defend Jing Yiran after she died?
Both her husband and son only epted Jing Yichen and they clearly favored him more.
Jing Yiran got a bit happy when he noticed Mo Lans pitying look. He started to recount the terrible treatment he had received and described Jing Yichen as a vicious man.
Of course, he didnt exaggerate. Jing Yichen was indeed a vicious man to him.
Mo Lan was getting persuaded. She felt that maybe it would be correct to leave all the shares to Jing Yiran for his protection.
But she felt a bit uneasy inside her heart. She felt sorry for Jing Yiran but she also felt guilty towards Jing Yichen, so she couldnt make any decision.
Ran, please go home today and leave me alone. I wille to you when I make up my mind. The shares of Jingsheng are of greatest importance. It is not just about money.
Jing Yiran clenched his fingers but still showed a smile to Mo Lan. Of course, Grandma, I will be waiting for your decision.
He said so and walked out.
But he came again the following day.
He didnt mention anything about shares. He just fed the parrots with Mo Lan, kept herpany over lunch and attended the card games with her old friends outside home.
Three dayster, Mo Lan asked Jing Yiran toe to him and gave him the letter of share transfer to him.
Ran, you have worked very hard during these days in keeping mepany. I have made the decision to give you all the shares. I will give none to your brother.
Jing Yiran got extremely pleased inside his heart.
He couldnt conceal his smile and took hold of Mo Lan as he said with augh, Thank you, Grandma! You are the most beautifuldy in the world. I love you more than I love anybody else.
Mo Lanughed too.
She patted the back of her grandson and said with a smile, You know how to make me smile. I am not young anymore nor am I beautiful.
She was smiling yet she somehow felt uneasy inside her heart.
She had no idea if the decision which she made would lead to anyplications.
Jing Yiran kept herpany for a few more hours and then left with the letter of shares transfer worth tens of billions.
But the truth that he took the shares from Mo Lan was not a secret anymore.
The first servant that knew about this matter told the Butler, secretly.
The Butler hesitated for a moment and then entered the study where he made the call to Jing Zhongxiu and recounted the entire incident to him.
Jing Zhongxius study was specially constructed. It was safe and sound proof.
Only Jing Tianyuan and Jing Yichen as well as the Butler could enter the study without permission. The Butler worked for Family Jing but he was only devoted to Jing Zhongxiu.
Jing Zhongxiu was in the UK at the moment. He was personally checking the preparations for Jing Yichens wedding that was going to take ce next month.
After hearing what the Butler said, he stayed silent for a long time before speaking up. Tell this matter to the Old Lord and Elder Master.
Theoretically speaking, Jing Yiran should not get the shares of Jingsheng.
He was not the heir of Family Jing and had no right to control Jingsheng.
Then why was he trying to get the shares?
There was only one possibility C he was going to try and control Jingsheng.
After hearing what Jing Zhongxiu said, the Butler hung up the phone and called Jing Tianyuan and Jing Yichen, respectively and told them about the matter.
Jing Yichen gave him no response. He hung up after saying Okay.
But Jing Tianyuan got extremely annoyed. He struck the table when he was still with Mu Wensheng.
After hanging up the phone, Mu Wenshengughed at him instantly. Seems that your grandson is not that obedient either. See, this is what you got forughing at me some days ago! Lets see what you have taught your offspring C killing between family members for properties! Well, look at my sons and grandsons. They never fight for the inheritance, and they even allow others to take over. What a lovely and peaceful family!
Jing Tianyuan had been teased by Mu Wensheng many times, so he didnt take his words too seriously. Instead, he kept cursing fiercely.
Olddy is getting more and more confused with age!
All she knows is to love that bastard. Just see what he has been doing these days. While Yichen is trying so hard to clean it up after him, he keeps stabbing him behind his back. Yichen would not be so restrained beyond a point.
I really want to kick him out of Family Jing. He doesnt look like anyone from Family Jing and he doesnt behave like us either. He is just like his mother who only knows how to do evil things.
Mu Wensheng knew exactly what Family Jing had gone through. Jing Tianyuan had been pissed many times because of this matter.
There was one time when he stayed at this ce and had refused to get back to his own home.
Chapter 352 - In Coma (Part One)
Chapter 352: In Coma (Part One)
Mu Wenshengs first wife passed away at an early age, leaving one son behind. The second and third sons were born by the woman whom he remarried. She passed away a few yearster. But all of his three sons were in very good rtionship with each other as if they were real siblings. They had never quarreled with each other during the past decades and there was no such thing as fight for property in their house.
Therefore, he had never understood how the situation of Family Jing could be soplicated.
He thought for a while and scratched his slightly unkempt hair as he said, I thought that the two brothers were fighting against each other for the granddaughter-inw. But it seems that they are both out for money.
Jing Tianyuan red. What is that supposed to mean? My granddaughter-inw is Yichens wife. How is she rted to that bastard boy?
Mu Wensheng was not pleased. Of course she is! When I went to rescue the girls life, Jing Yiran looked as if his own mother had died. I almost couldnt tell whose wife she was. Then my grandson told me that your granddaughter-inw was hospitalized because she had been kidnapped by Jing Yiran so that she could be his instead. If he hadnt drugged her so badly, the girl would not have nearly lost her life. Damn, I had to take the helicopter to the hospital to save a life.
Mu Wensheng might not be a reliable person, but he never lied. So Jing Tianyuan knew that what he said was true and he got even more irritated by that.
Is that true? I never knew about that. Neither my son nor grandson said anything about that. My granddaughter-inw is a precious being and that bastard is forbidden to touch her. If anything like this spreads around, then Family Jing would totally lose face.
He stood up instantly and said, God, I need to go home to check on it. I dont want to lose my home. Maybe my old wife has given my private properties also to that bastard.
Mu Wensheng didnt force him to stay. He said as he was lying in the long chair, If your home is taken away by that boy, you are wee toe and live under my roof. Just make sure that you pay the rent.
Mu Wensheng and Jing Tianyuan had been staying in this yard during the past few days rather than in the vi of Family Mu, because the environment here was much better with greenndscape around, befitting the old men.
Jing Tianyuan waved his hands and left in a hurry.
When he arrived at Family Jing, he asked the Butler to meet him in the study. Then he took out the ount book which he hadnt touched in years and started to check the status of his properties.
There were many properties in his hands that used to be registered under both his and Mo Lans names. There were some parts that were only registered under Mo Lans name for conveniences sake, so that she didnt need to go through his approval if she wanted to do anything with those properties.
Jing Tianyuan had never thought about checking the ount, because he believed that his wife would not touch his properties so easily.
But with Jing Yiran existing, he couldnt just be sure any more.
He spent days checking the ount. The ounts were not onlyplicated and many and needed to be checked with rted government departments, but also because Jing Tianyuan was no longer young and he couldnt work for too long.
When the check wasplete, Jing Tianyuan almost passed out.
He had lost almost a quarter of his properties.
It was not a small number. These properties were enough to establish an enormous business empire.
All of his properties had been umted and passed down from generations of Family Jing and they were going to be passed down to Jing Yichenter so that he could pass them down to his offspring.
How was he going to face the ancestors of Family Jing when a quarter of the properties was missing?
Jing Tianyuan got so annoyed that his face paled. The Butler called the doctor immediately.
In Jing Zhongxius absence, the old lord needed to be fine.
Having heard that the old lord was not feeling well, the doctor arrived instantly. After checking him thoroughly, he looked a bit more rxed.
The old lord is just angry and agitated because of which his heartbeat is irregr. He needs some rest and then he will be fine.
Jing Tianyuan felt much better after resting for a while.
He had always been healthy. He barely got sick since he always ate the therapy ball Mu Wensheng had made for him.
But when Mo Lan returned home at night, Jing Tianyuan was furious.
Mo Lan, tell me where are the properties of old Family Jing? Why are the ones under your name, missing? How can I face my dad and grandpa when I pass away?
Jing Tianyuan had been spoiling Mo Lan throughout his whole life. They were a couple whom everyone else envied, when they had been young. Even in theter years, they always had a wonderful rtionship with each other. They quarreled with each other but never had a real fight.
During the past decades, Jing Tianyuan had lost his temper at Mo Lan only twice.
The first time was when she had insisted on keeping Zhang Rongs baby due to which Zhao Qing died in a car ident.
And today was the second time.
Jing Tianyuan would not frown even if Mo Lan made a huge mistake.
But these matters were family affairs and might lead to the splitting of Family Jing because of which this flourishing family would copse.
That was what he couldnt tolerate.
Mo Lan got a bit uneasy being interrogated by Jing Tianyuan. But she had always been the dominating one so she didnt allow Jing Tianyuan to shout at her.
So what! I took them! She shouted loudly and furiously matching Jing Tianyuans.
I have given them to nobody else but Ran. He is also my grandson. What is wrong with giving them to him? You can give everything to Chen, so why cant you give anything to Ran? Chen has everything but Ran has nothing. I am willing to give everything to him and I will give him more. I have also given him the shares and all of my dowries. He would have been killed by Chen without these things around him.
Jing Tianyuan never expected that his wife could be so unreasonable. She could be unreasonable in small matters but she always listened to him rather than make decisions alone. But she had snapped at him in this way at this moment.
Those were the roots Family Jing fed on one generation after another, the biggest jumping board Family Jing could use in case Family Jing wobbled.
Mo Lan wanted to give Jing Yiran even more with a quarter missing, and she had even given him the dowry. Those were enough to buy out half of Jingsheng.
With fury attacking right into the heart, Jing Tianyuan spilled out a mouthful of blood and passed out.
The Butler screamed at the top of his voice in fright, Old Lord!
Chapter 353 - In Coma (Part Two)
Chapter 353: In Coma (Part Two)
The Butler panicked. He ran to catch Jing Tianyuan so that he would not fall onto the ground.
He was a man in his 50s but sounded at the verge of tears. He shouted at the top of his voice in the walkie-talkie. Doctor,e here now! The old lord has fainted. Old lord, please wake up now, now!
Mo Lan had not expected that her husband who had been always so healthy would spit out blood and pass out. She got startled before throwing herself at him as she called out to him, My old man...
The doctor arrived quickly. Half an hourter, Jing Yichen reached there with Shangguan Ning. An hourter, Jing Zhongxiu reached Family Jing by the helicopter which Jing Yichen had sent to the outskirts of A City after Jing Zhongxiunded back from the UK.
Two hours had passed, but Jing Tianyuan was still not awake.
Jing Yichen looked extremely cold. He turned to the Butler. Uncle Lu, get Grandpa Mu here with the helicopter. Take the two doctors and let them tell the situation of grandpa to him so that he could bring along whatever is needed.
The Butler nodded and showed the guilty-looking doctors out. The doctors were highly paid at Family Jing but couldnt give any help at the most crucial moment and make the old lord wake up. They felt very guilty.
In the bedroom, Jing Tianyuan was lying in the bed, looking extremely pale.
He had always been in such good health that he never looked like a man in his 70s or 80s. But when he passed out all of a sudden, he immediately started looking ten years older like a stiff old man.
Mo Lan looked dumbfounded sitting by his bedside, cing her hands over Jing Tianyuans.
Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen were standing there frozen, just like two sculptures.
Shangguan Ning was holding Jing Yichens hand standing next to him.
His hand felt cold and stiff. The warmth he usually had was no longer there.
Shangguan Ning knew that Jing Yichen must be feeling furious and sad. But he never showed in front of others how he felt.
Jing Zhongxiu felt very bad as well.
He had justnded from the UK and was picked up by the helicopter, immediately. Jing Yichen would not have sent the helicopter to pick him up if it had not been something urgent.
Jing Tianyuan had fallen intoa because of Mo Lan, so Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen couldnt utter a word and suppressed their anger.
Yichen, dad, grandpa will be fine. It was getting more and more silent and scary in the room as if something would break any minute. Shangguan Ning spoke, trying to release the horrible atmosphere in bedroom.
Jing Tianyuan was already ina and Mo Lan needed to stay strong. They mustnt me her for anything, because she must be feeling upset right now.
Grandpa Mu is a legendary doctor and grandpa has always been healthy. He is just a little bit anxious this time. Grandpa Mu would definitely cure him.
Shangguan Nings soft voice arose in the bedroom, reducing the tension.
Jing Yichen took hold of her hand tightly and said once again after a moment of silence. Dad, grandpa will be fine. Please go and rest. Me and Ning will be guarding him here.
Jing Zhongxiu had been making preparations for their wedding because of which he had to deal with many matters and people. Everything he did had something to do with the inheritance of the future. Since Jing Yichen had not yet taken over the resources in the UK, he had no right to get involved.
Jing Zhongxiu was tired, but he didnt want to leave.
He had been away for a week and when he returned, he found his father in this state. He was both agonized and furious inside his heart. He had always had a much closer rtionship with his father than with Mo Lan, because he had always been by Jing Tianyuans side, learning everything from him. Mo Lan was far less devoted to him than Jing Tianyuan was.
After Jing Tianyuan got older, their rtionship became deeper, because Jing Tianyuan was no longer that strictpared to early times and Jing Zhongxiu, who had also be a father, understood all the things which his father had done to him. He understood a fathers love, heavy and full of expectations.
He respected, understood and loved his father.
His father had joked that if Jing Yichen couldnt be a good heir of Family Jing, he should just go home and father a son, so that he could breed a new heir when he was still alive.
Nothing could happen to him when his great-grandson was yet to be born!
No need, I will stay here. Your grandpa will wake up soon and I am waiting for that moment toe.
Jing Zhongxiu looked very tired, but he sounded determined.
He sat down on the sofa in the bedroom and asked Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning to take a seat as well.
When they were both seated, he spoke once again. Mom, go and take some rest. We are here, and when he is awake, I will inform you. He hadnt called Mo Lan mom for a very long time, so the way he said it now turned out to be strange.
Shangguan Ning understood the tone. Jing Zhongxiu sounded distant and he was trying hard to press down his anger.
Mo Lan was still dumbfounded and didnt move an inch. She didnt seem to have heard what Jing Zhongxiu said.
Jing Zhongxiu nced at her and said no more.
The servants came and served a bowl of ginseng tea to each of them before retiring quietly. The Butler had asked them to do so, because no one had eaten or was willing to eat anything. A bowl of ginseng tea could at least boost up the energy a bit.
The Butler was not in the bedroom. After he made sure that the helicopter had been sent to pick up Mu Wensheng, he had been waiting outside the house. He felt terrible when the Old Lord was ina. But he had to stay calm and instruct the servants to boil the tea and ensure the security.
He had no appetite to eat anything himself , but when the servant gave him the ginseng tea, he forced himself to drink it up.
As the sound of shoes on the floor arose in the living room, the Butler looked up.
Jing Yiran had just returned from outside. As he approached, the Butler could smell the alcohol on him.
The Butler stared at him.
His hair was waxed and neatly trimmed. He was dressed in a date-red colored suit and his leather shoes were shiny. He smelled of cigarettes and alcohol as well as different female perfumes.
After Jing Tianyuan had passed out, the Butler immediately called Jing Yichen who was the backbone and the elder grandson of Family Jing.
The Butler had thought for a long while before calling Jing Yiran. After all, he was also his grandson and even if old lord had fainted because of him, he was informed toe home right away.
But Jing Yiran didnt answer any of the calls the Butler made to him. Therefore, he had to send him a text in which he recounted the incident briefly.
Two hourster, the Second Master came home from some nightclub.
Chapter 354 - The Legendary Doctor
Chapter 354: The Legendary Doctor
Jing Yiran had been in an extremely good mood during the past few days because of the shares. He had met Ji Bo several times to discuss the next step of their n and also went out to drink every night. He had not been home for several days in a row.
He had drunk a bit too much tonight and was wobbling at the moment.
He stumbled as he said, I just saw the helicopter flying out. Why helicopter? What... is going on?
The Butler sighed inside his heart and was about to say something when Jing Yiran started tough wildly and shout out like a crazy man. Grandma, I am here! Where are you? I... am very happy! Come out now! Lets teach the parrots to talk!
He shouted as he staggered towards the stairs.
The Butler went up to stop him and said rapidly, Second Master, keep your voice down! The Old Lord is sick and the helicopter is for Doctor Mu. Stay quiet!
Alcohol had taken over his brain, so he reacted much slower than usual.
Who is... sick? I am... not sick! I am... very well!
He said as he started walking upstairs.
The Butler took hold of him tightly. Dont go upstairs, Second Master! Not now!
If Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen saw Jing Yiran in this way, he was dead for sure. He had tricked Mo Lan into giving him arge amount of properties and caused the Old Lord to pass out. Then he had gotten drunk and came home talking nonsense. He was simply asking for death by going upstairs.
But the Butler was in his 50s and couldnt possibly stand against the young and strong
Jing Yiran at all.
Jing Yiran pushed the Butler on the ground and started to walk upstairs. He shouted as he walked upstairs. Grandma, grandma! I... miss you... so...
He had just reached the second floor when arge, ck silhouette came out of the main bedroom at a high speed and kicked him.
Jing Yiran was yet to figure out who the man was when he started to roll downwards on the staircase.
Each floor of Family Jings vi was as high as four meters, meaning that Jing Yiran fell off from a ce of four meters height.
Lying on the floor, he failed to get back to his feet for a long while.
Due to the piercing pain, Jing Yiran finally got a bit sober.
He was in so much pain that he couldnt even breathe properly. But he still struggled to stand on his feet and looked up at the ck silhouette that had attacked him.
Only two men of Family Jing dared to kick him!
Jing Yiran spit out a mouthful of blood and his handsome face reddened because of anger as he said furiously between the teeth. Jing! Yi! Chen!
Jing Yichen said with a very cold tone, You better pray that Grandpa will be fine. If anything happens to him, you will die tonight!
He uttered the words and turned to the Butler who had just been helped up by the servant. Uncle Lu, take a rest now. I will ask Tiger to guard here.
That is when Tiger walked in.
The Butler got assured at the sight of Tiger. With the help of the two servants, he walked to the side of the living room. He had had a good fall and needed treatment.
Jing Yiran still had no idea about what was happening at home. But he was not that silly to realize that something was wrong.
He didnt hear what the Butler said, clearly, but frowned when he saw Jing Yichen turning back into Jing Tianyuans bedroom.
The doctors of Family Jing, apart from those two who went to Family Mu, were sitting in the small living room on the second floor. They were ready toe to the Old Lord when something happened. They were not bad doctors, but they were not excellent like Mu Wensheng.
But at the moment, the two doctors went downstairs, one to check Uncle Lu and the other instructing the servants to carry Jing Yiran to the stretcher back to his own vi.
Mu Wensheng had never expected that Jing Tianyuan who was so strong and had left his house four days ago would have fallen into aa.
He had been giving great therapies for Jing Tianyuan, so that he was definitely going to live healthily until at least 100 years old, if not 150! But he was not yet even 80 years old. How could he have fallen into aa?
He had been his friend for years, a very close one too. Mu Wensheng felt very bad, so he asked the doctors to tell him the fundamental symptoms, packed up a few things and boarded the helicopter.
Jing Yichen greeted him outside the vis gate when Mu Wensheng arrived at Family Jing.
Jing Yichen greeted him courteously at the sight of him and said, Grandpa Mu, sorry for the trouble, my grandpa is waiting for you inside.
Instead of teasing and scolding him, Mu Wensheng said only one thing, Lets go!
The moment Mu Wensheng entered the bedroom, a touch of hope shed across Shangguan Ning and Jing Zhongxius eyes. He was a famous doctor who brought endless hope to everyone.
Even Mo Lan who had been sitting there stiffly came back to herself and spared the seat for him.
Mu Wenshengs heart skipped a beat when he caught sight of his old friend.
He had not yet felt such a feeling before. He was a doctor who was used to death and life. He thought very little of death any more.
But his heart ached incredibly when he saw the patient was his old friend.
He ced his fingers upon one of Jing Tianyuans wrists and moved the fingers to the other,ter.
Sometimeter, he brought out the silver needle. Zhongxiu,e and hold your fathers head. He might spill blood soon. Make sure that he doesnt choke. When I say that you have to thump his back, do that with 70% of your force. Keep doing that and dont stop until all the blood is out.
Jing Zhongxiu nodded his head and went to hold Jing Tianyuans head.
Before he put in the needle, Mu Wensheng turned his head and said. Tianyuan is fine, I am sure about that. Now, leave us.
Everyone in the bedroom let out a sigh of relief when he said that calmly.
Shangguan Ning looked at Jing Yichen, took a few steps and held Mo Lan by the arms as she said softly, Come, Grandma, leave them here. Grandpa will be fine.
Mo Lan nodded and went out with her.
Almost one hourter, Jing Zhongxiu walked out. He said in a rxed tone, Okay, he is fine now. Come in, all of you.
Mo Lan almost rushed in.
Shangguan Ning got startled, let out a sigh and then went into the bedroom with Jing Yichen.
Chapter 355 - Awake
Chapter 355: Awake
The metallic smell of blood was all over the bedroom with blood stter on the quilts, pillows and the floor. Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan were both covered in blood stains.
But the good news was that Jing Tianyuan had woken up. He looked pale, but it seemed that after the blood spill, he had be much more energetic.
Mu Wensheng put away his blood stained silver needles and started to curse despite the fact that Jing Tianyun had just woken up from thea.
Have I given you therapy for so many years in vain? You copsed due to such a small matter? You would have continued to be in aa had it not been for me. None of the deities in the world would havee to your rescue. You are 80 years old not 18! Dont vent your anger as you wish. Weigh your anger before you throw it else you will be a victim of your own anger.
If you dare to get sick next time, dont call me, because you will not survive a second time. And no more silver needles would work on you any more. I am an old man too and I cant just be jerked out of the bed in the middle of the night, otherwise I will die as well!
Mu Wensheng put away the silver needles carefully and then struck the bed suddenly as he shouted at Mo Lan furiously, And you, old woman, even my two wives would not have caused as much trouble together as you do. Do you really n to make Tianyuan suffer so much that he almost dies?
He had already known why Jing Tianyuan passed out. He had wanted to scolded Mo Lan ages ago, but when he first came to the room, Jing Tianyuan was in too dangerous a situation for him to teach anyone a lesson.
His mood of scolding finally came back when Jing Tianyuan was brought back to life.
He was a year older than Jing Tianyuan and Mo Lan, so he didnt hold back in scolding Mo Lan. After all, he was the only one who dared to scold Mo Lan at his will in the entire room.
Jesus, you are simply too annoying. What are you going to do when Tianyuan dies? I want him to keep mepany until we are both 150 years old. For now I can only hope that he can survive this year with you around.
You did whatever you wanted with him when you were both young. But keep your eyes open for the situation right now! What are you holding the bad temper for still? Tianyuan has always spoiled you. Well, it might not be of any of my business, but if I dont point it out, I might have to be your specially hired doctor with a helicoptering to my door deep at night frequently!
Mu Wensheng was indeed furious so he kept cursing all the time. He was a legendary doctor whom everyone else should look up to! He could snap as much as he wanted to.
Do anything you want with your own properties, but dont ever think about moving anything of Family Jing. You so silly to give away those properties. Are you not worried that those dead corpses of Family Jing would climb out of the tomb to take revenge?
Mu Wensheng had always been a man who was into money, because Family Mu was not as wealthy as Family Jing. Family Mu was not approved by the public in the early years, so they didnt earn much money before. So he couldnt stand at all was that someone else splurged the money. He himself had used all of his money upon buying the medicine ingredients so what he had left was Family Mus Hospital.
The moment he heard that Mo Lan had given a quarter of Family Jings properties to Jing Yiran, he got so furious that he wanted to hit someone. He would definitely hunt anyone down who dared to splurge away the properties of Family Mus Hospital.
Mu Wensheng knew Jing Tianyuan well. He knew that Jing Tianyuan didnt care about the money. He cared about the properties from the ancestors.
Jesus, I am so pissed. You know that human beings give out poisonous elements enough to kill mice every time we get angry. Jesus! My lifespan must have been reduced!
He kept nagging and no one present uttered a sound. Jing Tianyuan was lying in the bed feebly and listened to his scolding. He had no expression on the face.
Because he thought that he and Mo Lan were worth the me.
But maybe Mo Lan was so stimted that she copsed right after after hearing Mu Wensheng scold her.
Mom!
Grandma!
Jing Zhongxiu and Shangguan Ning burst out at the same time and then came to her side to help her up.
Another one passes out. Have you people taken me as a freebor force since I am here?
Mu Wenshengined as he rapidly felt Mo Lans pulse. A couple of secondster, he released the hands and said, This old woman is fine. Just let her take a rest for a day and make her drink some water. No medicine needed!
He went towards the bed and said as he rolled his eyes, Look at her, she passes out for fun and you pass out fatally.
As Jing Tianyuan watched Jing Zhongxiu carrying Mo Lan out to the other room for rest, he said hoarsely, Stop nagging, my head is aching. It was an ident this time and I wont die so easily with you around me.
Dont! I am not up to take the responsibility! Mu Wensheng red despite thepliment. Just live your life. One more ident and half of my life will be gone. I need several more years to live!
The two old men were still talking when Jing Zhongxiu returned.
Jing Tianyuan said softly, Zhongxiu, make sure the servants take good care of your mother. She is too old to go through anything.
Jing Zhongxiu nodded. Dont worry. The other doctors have already checked her up.
Bah, she will be fine. She has not worried about one single thing in her life and has been living a very happy life during these years. She is much healthier than you. She wont die before you!
Mu Wensheng talked in a very impolite way, but apparently, he was indicating that everything was fine with Mo Lan.
Jing Tianyuan got slightly assured after making sure that Mo Lan was fine. He was indeed annoyed about Mo Lan giving the properties of Family Jing to Jing Yiran, yet he had never wanted anything bad to happen to her.
They had been a couple for so many years. Although Mo Lan kept making mistakes, it was not very easy that they could be married for so long.
It waste at night, and Jing Tianyuan was feeling very grateful to his old buddy, although he said nothing.
He said with a hoarse voice, Just stay here tonight. You have to be on my service anyway, in case I feel unwell again.
Okay, I will stay here. I need to give you one more needle tomorrow. I dont want to ride the helicopter again. It feels weird. I am not a national leader!
Chapter 356 - To Get All Back
Chapter 356: To Get All Back
The following morning, Jing Yiran understood what happened after he woke up from sleep.
So the Old Lord knew that the Old Lady had given him everything, including the 10% shares?
And he even fainted out of anger!
When he woke up the following morning, he heard from Doctor Jian that the Old Lord had been in a terrible statest night and he would not have made it but for the legendary Doctor Mu.
The Old Lord had gotten overly furious and blood clogged inside the inner organs because of old age.
A chest operation was not advisable because that would have sped up the termination of his lifespan.
What Mu Wensheng did was the traditional Chinese acupuncture so that the clogged blood vessels inside his chest was forced out, avoiding the operation and saving his life.
He was a legendary doctor who lived up to his name. He had brought endless lives back to life.
Goddamn it! He got himself drunk under that situation rather than stay by the Old Lords side!
Jing Yiran really wanted to p himself.
But even if he had been sober, he would fail to fulfil his filial duty next to the Old Lord, becausest night, Jing Yichen had kicked him off the stairs and he ended up breaking two ribs and an arm. His arm was bound up and gave endless pain.
He hated Jing Yichen to death!
He had dared to kick him off the stairs. Was he trying to kill him?
He was simply heartless!
Jing Yiran was feeling annoyed when Mo Lan walked in with a white face.
Grandma!
Jing Yiran wanted to stand up at the sight of her, but Mo Lan stopped him.
Just lie still, Ran. I am here to visit after hearing that you are badly injured too. Mo Lans face paled and more wrinkles had crept over her face. She seemed to have gained so much grey hair overnight.
What are you doing here? I heard that you passed outst night too. You should lie down in the bed and take a rest. Are you feeling better? I am totally fine, I get injured all the time! Two dayster I will be fine! Dont worry about me. What about grandpa? Is he better now?
Mo Lan nodded and sounded upset. Yes, he is awake. Ran, it was all my fault. He almost lost his life because of me. Had it not been Mu Wensheng, he might not have woken up! I am feeling so horrible
Jing Yiran struggled to get himself up, but the pain made him sweat.
Grandma, it was all my fault. Grandpa can me me for anything, not you. You love me so much and you give me things privately because you dont want me to be the only one without anything! I will talk with grandpa myself and will let him punish me as he wishes!
Jing Yiran did care about Mo Lan. She was the only one who was true hearted to him. He was not that silly to not be able to tell the difference.
He had tried his best to get whatever Mo Lan had, partly because he had tricked her, but also because he did stay very close to Mo Lan and treated her as the closet family member.
Mo Lans eyes reddened.
She wiped off the tears and said, Silly boy, I gave you all because I wanted to. Leave yourself out of this incident. You should not appear in front of grandpa or father for the next few days. You can visit them when they are less angry.
Mo Lan was feeling very guilty inside her heart. But she didnt want her grandson to get beaten by her husband and her son, so she hade to him so early in the morning.
She had given Jing Yiran whatever he wanted and what was done was done. Jing Yiran should not be beaten once again.
Jing Tianyuan would not touch her however angry he got.
She should try her best to make it up to the lost properties anyway.
Mo Lan stressed some more points to Jing Yiran and didnt leave until he promised that he was not going to show up in front of Jing Zhongxiu.
She returned to her own vi, entered the bedroom and heard Jing Tianyuan and Jing Yichen talking with each other. Jing Zhongxiu and Shangguan Ning were with them too.
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen had stayed the night so that they could take care of Jing Tianyuan.
When the sound of door opening arose, everyone turned their head and got startled at the sight of Mo Lan.
She had passed outst night and she should be in the bed. What was she doing here?
Jing Tianyuan also frowned. But he just looked at her without saying and continued to talk with Jing Yichen.
Here is the check list, just read it. Only a small portion of the properties are in A city whilst the rest are somewhere else.
Jing Yichen took the list from Jing Tianyuan and read it quickly. The list includedrge areas of forests and manors, even arge ship factory as well as the rights of port operation.
He put away the documents and said calmly, Okay, I see. I will handle it as soon as possible.
Jing Tianyuan looked much better than yesterday. The covers had been changed and he had changed into new pajamas, looking fresher. He looked serious as usual.
He still sounded hoarse, but spoke in a very calm and poised way. He was no longer furious as the day before. I have checked everything. Jing Yiran is not the owner of these properties and has sold them to different people. It would be very difficult for you to get them all back. But your father and I have agreed to hand over this work to you. These are the properties left from the ancestors and you must get them back before I pass away.
Mo Lan stiffened hearing what he said.
She knew what Jing Tianyuan was talking about. He was giving theplete list of the properties she gave to Jing Yiran and was asking Jing Yichen to buy them all back.
She had given many things to Jing Yiran but he splurged them all within a short period of time.
Now, she was feeling extremely uneasy and guilty.
She had made another mistake. She had not only given away the properties of Family Jing but also made her husband get so furious that he almost lost his life.
Those properties could not possibly be gained back within a short period of time. Jing Yichen would have to pay a lot to get them back.
She was feeling somehow regretful to have given the shares to Jing Yiran.
She should have given them to Jing Yichen so that she could make up for what she had done.
Mo Lan threw a look at her elder grandson who was standing in front of her and felt extremely awful.
She had again made Jing Yichen face the consequences of the mistake she had made.
Chapter 357 - Great-Grandson?
Chapter 357: Great-Grandson?
Mo Lan hadnt understood until this moment why Jing Tianyuan and Jing Zhongxiu always favored Jing Yichen rather than Jing Yiran.
Because Jing Yiran had done nothing for the Family whilst asking for everything from the family.
Whilst Jing Yichen had been dedicating himself to the family all the time, despite behaving distant and ruthlessly. What he had been doing was to try to protect Family Jing with all he could. He would always put the general interest of Family Jing above everything else no matter what happened to the Family rather than gain his own interests in the chaos.
He was an excellent heir of the Family!
Jing Yichen ignored theplicated look from Mo Lan but said to Jing Tianyuan calmly, Dont worry, Grandpa. Anything except for human life, will be gained back by me. I have all kinds of methods to bring back whatever I need. I will bring back everything from the list. There are quite a few of them here, so Grandpa, please give me three years time, after which, I will give you everything on the list.
Jing Tianyuan got slightly assured after hearing what his grandson said.
A slightly serious expression appeared on his face. No, after you get all of these properties, I will check them in person. These are all your things and you dont need to give me anything. The ancestors have given us the properties and when you get the quarter, I will give you the 3?4th which I have got right here. ording to the regtion, I should have given it to your father, but you are the efficient heir of Family Jing, so I feel assured to give you all of them instead.
Jing Yichen got a bit startled. He threw a look at Jing Zhongxiu sitting by the bedside of Jing Tianyuan. He had no expression on his face as if he had predicted everything. He said seriously, Dont worry Grandpa, I will pass everything of Family Jing down to the next generation.
Jing Tianyuan nodded and then threw a look at Shangguan Ning before saying without hesitation. I have just got one requirement. You have to be the owner of everything, rather than Ning.
Jing Yichen got startled, so did Shangguan Ning. She had never expected that when grandpa and grandson were talking about such a serious matter, they would turn to her topic.
She had been deeply immersed in the seriousness and solemnity of Family Jings inheritance. She admired this ritual very much.
But she soon came back to herself. She understood that Jing Tianyuan was worried that she might make the same mistake as Mo Lan
Shangguan Ning said to Jing Tianyuan with a smile, Oh Grandpa, arent you worried that I might get upset when you speak like that in front of me? But you think too little of me. I dont want any of the properties of Family Jing. After all, I have a lot of money to spend. You better keep your properties well sealed!
Jing Tianyuan burst intoughter all of a sudden after hearing what she said.
That was the first smile he had shown in the past few days.
Dont worry, girl, I wont give you a hard time. All of these things will be given to my great-grandson and what you will get will be the things I earn myself. I have a lot of wonderful things with me.
Shangguan Ning smiled. Thank you very much, Grandpa!
She only expressed gratitude rather than the willingness of whether or not she would ept it, because when the time came, she would listen to Jing Yichen to decide if she should ept whatever he gave her.
The old lord could live at least a dozen years more. He needed them to spend his remaining days with.
Jing Yichen also showed a slight smile on the face as he said with a low voice, I willplete everything that you have asked me to. Ning wont touch any of them, because she has no interest in them at all.
Actually, what he wanted to say was that Shangguan Ning was a woman easily satisfied. What she wanted was to live a simple life. She had little need for money and Jing Tianyuan didnt need to get worried.
Also, there would not be anybody like Zhang Rong who appeared between them and cause problems.
Shangguan Nings words made the atmosphere get rxed. Everyone else had a smile on their faces apart from Mo Lan.
The moment Mu Wensheng entered the room, he saw the happy face of the family and got cheerful. Ha, what is everyone so happy for? Are you weing me to release the blood from the patients body?
Everyone was amused. When Jing Yichen saw himing, he spared the seat for him and sat down on the sofa next to Shangguan Ning.
Mu Wensheng didnt ask the family to leave when he started the procedure for Jing Tianyuan. He was just talking andughing with Jing Tianyuan as he put the needles in his body. Then Jing Tianyuan spat out few mouthfuls of blood.
After he spat out the blood, Mu Wensheng poked open the skin on his arm, forcing the blood to gush out little by little.
The entire process finished after almost one hour.
Due to the preparations made earlier, Jing Tianyuan waspletely awake.
Mo Lan sat next to Jing Tianyuan and helped him instead of Jing Zhongxiu.
Mu Wensheng had an on-and-off attitude towards Mo Lan today. But seeing that she took such great care of Jing Tianyuan, he felt much better.
He put away the silver needle and felt Jing Tianyuans pulse, put in the infusion himself and sat down by the bedside after he finished all the work.
Alright, he is definitely not going to die today. I can go home with an assured heart.
Are you leaving? Yichen will take you home.
No hurry, I have one more persons pulse to feel!
Jing Tianyuan got slightly startled. Whose? Maybe Mo Lan? She passed outst night too.
Mu Wensheng ignored him and said to Shangguan Ning, Come, girl.
Shangguan Ning didnt expect to be pointed out by him. She threw a look at Jing Yichen who also looked a bit astonished and then walked towards him, confused. Anything you want to tell me, Grandpa Mu?
Mu Wensheng said inposure looking mysterious. Give me your arm.
Confused, Shangguan Ning stretched out her arm obediently.
Did she look like someone who was sick?
Mu Wensheng withdrew the fingers after feeling her pulse for just a few seconds and said, Old Jing, you are one step ahead of me again.
Shangguan Ning was still confused when Jing Tianyuan suddenly sat up. His face was full of ecstasy and excitement that couldnt be concealed. Old Mu, am I getting a great-grandson?
Chapter 358 - Pregnancy
Chapter 358: Pregnancy
Mu Wensheng nodded. Yes, almost a month old. Can hardly see the hair. I cant tell if it is a great-grandson or great-granddaughter. But she is definitely pregnant!
Jing Tianyuanughed and his face looked healthy again, even better than before.
It has to be a great-grandson. Our family has had sons for five generations in a row. I am sure that Ning is pregnant with a boy.
Jing Yichen sprang up from the bed. The man who was always so distant and cold, looked full of joy and excitement just as Jing Tianyuan did.
Despite there being people in the room, he went ahead and took Shangguan Ning into his arms and said in a trembling voice, Ning, we are having a baby!
Seated on the sofa, Jing Zhongxiu looked full of delight as well. It was indeed a wonderful thing! He must find something worthy to give out as presents.
Even Mo Lan who had been looking so dreadful till a while ago, became delighted. She had always looked forward to having a great-grandson.
Taken into Jing Yichens arms in front of so many people, Shangguan Ning blushed and whispered in his arms. So fast, is that real?
What she meant was that she had done the pregnancy testst month and got a negative result. So howe she got pregnant already this month. She couldnt believe it.
Had it been one month already? Why did she feel nothing?
Mu Wensheng had a pair of sharp ears. So he caught her whisper instantly.
He frowned and said, Silly girl, are you suspecting my professional skills? You might be pregnant for less than a month, twenty days or something. But I am good enough to have sensed that you are pregnant even before I felt your pulse. How dare you doubt me?
Shangguan Ning got slightly embarrassed.
She was not suspecting Mu Wensheng. She was just too excited to ept the exciting news that she was pregnant.
She had been looking forward to having a baby for a long time now.
Shangguan Ning was embarrassed, but Jing Yichen was not. He took Shangguan Ning to Mu Wensheng and said with a wide smile on his face, Grandpa Mu, please check Ning again and tell us what we need to do with her and the baby.
Mu Wensheng really wanted to re back at him. He had felt the pulse and didnt do that once again as an experienced doctor. Shangguan Ning was totally fine. What should he check her up again for?
But before he could say anything, Jing Tianyuan and Jing Zhongxiu gathered around. They spoke one after another.
Old Mu, my grandson is right, check her again. You might not have been so urate at first nce!
Uncle Mu, what can you possibly discover after feeling Ning for just a few moments? Check her up again.
Mu Wensheng got pissed at these men. Since when did his skills start getting suspected? He was the legendary doctor, no? He felt that he had been deeply hurt by Family Jing so badly that he had no idea what to say!
However, he had to bend down to the threat of the men of Family Jing and turned to feel Shangguan Nings pulse with barely restrained anger.
He was more cautious this timepared tost time. A momentter, he withdrew the fingers suddenly and patted his thigh.
Everyone looked at him nervously. They had no idea what was going on.
Then he said in a regretful tone, Ah, my immortals drug! Did you drink too much of it? No wonder she is so healthy. She must have drunk my medicinal wine.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief after hearing what he said.
But Jing Tianyuan asked nervously, Will it be okay for the girl to drink the wine even now? Will my great-grandson be affected?
Mu Wensheng got so annoyed by what the old man said. He was already irritated that Jing Zhongxiu had taken away the wine that he had even lost big clumps of his hair because of that. But now, Jing Tianyuan dared to ask that the wine could be bad for a pregnant woman. He just couldnt stand it any more!
Are you willing to sell it for a price? Give me back the wine, or I would note to check you up in the future.
Jing Yichen said instantly, Grandpa Mu, I spent one billion on the two bottles of wine. All of the money has been given to the hospital. You cant take them back!
Having heard the words, Mu Wensheng pulled his beard and got slightly assured.
Mu Qing had told him about the one-billion-yuan story. But he cared so much about his special wine to have forgotten about this matter at the moment.
He red at Jing Tianyuan and said eventually, My medicinal wine is a precious treasure. If she drinks it when she is pregnant, she will bepletely healthy. It is great for the baby in her belly as well. I am sure that the boy will be thebination of Ironman and Transformer. Be prepared to deal with him.
Jing Tianyuanughed. He was in such a good mood. After all, he wanted to see a rebellious and strong great-grandson.
Shangguan Ning, however, didnt find much difference in herself apart from the fact that she didnt get cold so easily anymore.
Also, Grandpa Mu was just exaggerating to say that her baby would be thebination of Ironman and The Transformer. That sounded like a monster!
She didnt want such abination. What she wanted was a chubby healthy son.
Jing Tianyuan, however, felt that this was a great metaphor. It amused him and made himugh. My great-grandson is definitely going to be an outstanding man among all the others. Girl, go and visit Family Mu every month with Yichen for a checkup. Mu Wenshengs hand is much better than the Ultra-B equipment at the hospital!
Dont make a decision on my behalf. My hand is not at your beck and call. I dont want to get tired or be the servant for your family.
Despite whatever he said, Mu Wensheng didnt turn the idea down.
Shangguan Ning understood that he had just agreed, so she said with a smile, Thank you, Grandpa Mu. I will bring some medical material to you next time I visit you!
Mu Wenshengs eyes widened when he heard the words medical material. He said with a smile, See, Old Jing, your girl is truly understanding. She is much sweeter than you.
Everyone in the room talked andughed, foregoing the serious atmosphere that had just been there a moment ago.
Jing Tianyuan recovered fast because of the happy mood as well.
He tried all he could to stop Mu Wensheng from leaving. He wanted him to stay for some more days at Family Jing.
Just stay at my home so you can check up my granddaughter-inw whenever she doesnt feel well. Your home is too far away from the city!
Old Jing, you are just trying to trap me in your house and use me as an Ultra-B machine by iming to offer me a good ce to stay?
Chapter 359 - Father-to-Be, Jing Yichen
Chapter 359: Father-to-Be, Jing Yichen
Mu Wensheng stayed for two more days with Family Jing before going back. He liked to stay in his little house with a yard rather than in this modern vi with so much empty space.
Of course, before he left, he took Jing Tianyuan away from home, too. He imed that it was to help him recover faster but he had just wanted to find someone to be his chess mate.
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen moved back home two dayster.
Knowing that she was pregnant, Shangguan Ning was extremely happy. But she slipped back into her normal routine after the excitement passed. For example, she continued to wear high-heels and tight skirts. She continued to drink sour plum juice and eat hawthorn slices.
She was not feeling ufortable after getting pregnant. She could still eat and sleep as usual.
Rather, she had a bigger appetite than before. She had been turned into aplete... food lover!
But soon, she realized that all of her high heels and skirts were all gone, leaving only pants in the wardrobe.
The sour plum juice and hawthorn slices which she fancied, were all gone too!
She went to find Jing Yichen barefooted and said angrily, Where are my shoes?
Jing Yichen looked down at her feet and said nothing.
He bent down, removed his own slippers and put them upon Shangguan Nings feet. The shoes were enormous but they were warm enough to keep her from feeling cold.
After he finished doing this, he got up and took her into his arms as if she were a precious treasure. Then he kissed her gently on the forehead and lips.
Baby, didnt I say that you should remember to wear shoes at home. The floor is not warm.
He sounded so gentle and spoiled that Shangguan Ning becamepletely appeased. Forgetting her anger, she let out a soft okay sound.
As for those high heels, I tossed them away. You are not going to wear them before the child is born, okay?
Shangguan Ning had heard that wearing high heels caused miscarriage, but tossing those shoes away made her heart ache.
It seemed that Jing Yichen understood about her heart-ache, so he said with a smile, I have enough money that I can buy you however many shoes you want. I can even buy out an entire mall!
What about my dresses? I cant wear sportswear to work every day, can I?
Oh, your dresses just cant cover the knees. For your sake of health, you better wear the cotton sportswear. I am the boss and I will take away the bonuses or sry of anyone who talks nonsense at thepany about your attire.
The boss was simply too arrogant and unreasonable!
Also, baby, I dont seem to have given you permission to work!
Shangguan Nings eyes widened. She gave a hard pinch on Jing Yichens waist. Why am I not going to work? I ampletely fine. The baby is fine too. I want to work, I do!
You can go to work after the baby is three months old. Stay at home for the baby for three months and I will reduce my travel time too. I will keep youpany, eat meals with you and take a walk with you. I will tell stories to the baby too, okay?
Shangguan Ning couldnt turn down such a sweet and considerate offer from Jing Yichen.
She showed a joyful smile on the face. Did you just read everything about pregnant women?
She had found some books of therapies and food taboos for pregnant women in the study. Jing Yichen must have asked someone to buy those books.
Of course, it will be the first time for me to be a father and I have to read to know and understand your pregnancy. So, I have confiscated your sour plum juice and hawthorn slices. No more eating those! It is just been one month and you cant eat everything you want. I will tell Old Du, Sister Lan and Sister Fang about the taboos so that they can keep an eye out for you.
What? None at all? I like those sour and sweet things. I cant live without the sour plum juice.
She neither drank tea or coffee. She didnt like any drinks apart from sour plum juice. How will she survive without the juice?
Yes, I know that you want to drink it. So I asked Grandpa Mu who told me that you can drink a little of sour plum juice but not every day. I will control the amount you take in. If you want something sour and sweet, then eat yoghurt. That is better than sour plum juice and also good for you and the baby!
Also, no more spicy food, no more ice cream, no more deep-fried or junk food, no more...
Shangguan Ning was feeling very bad after hearing those things being forbidden by Jing Yichen.
She remembered that many female staff in Jingsheng got pregnant too and they didnt seem to have so many taboos to follow.
Was Jing Yichen just overly careful...
When evening came, Shangguan Ning got a bit hesitant when she brought out the golden-color medical wine.
Was she supposed to drink it or not?
Too much of it would not make me give birth to a transformer, would it?
She was mumbling in front of the fridge when Jing Yichen burst intoughter as he approached her and heard the words.
Grandpa Mu was just teasing and exaggerating. But this silly woman has taken it for real.
Jing Yichen held her from behind and ced his chin upon her neck as he chuckled softly, ording to Mu Qing, it is excellent for the baby. Just drink it. We are not deities, so how can we give birth to a transformer? You have just watched too many animated films.
What did he mean by too many animated films? She had just watched a few of them.
Shangguan Ning rolled her eyes at him, removed the lid and took a spoonful of it. Then she gave Jing Yichen a spoonful as well.
After they finished with the wine, Jing Yichen carried Shangguan Ning out of the dining room and headed into the bedroom through the living room.
Shangguan Ning had her arms around his neck and mumbled. I can walk by myself. I am not that spoiled. My baby and I are totally fine. Also, isnt walking better for thebor?
Jing Yichen had been carrying her around during the past few days, refusing to let her walk much.
You have not yet reached the three-month stage yet. Wait after you reach the fourth month. You can walk more, then.
Jing Yichen put Shangguan Ning onto the bed softly andid down next to her.
Nestled inside his arms, Shangguan Ning looked at him naughtily. You know so much, even though you are not pregnant.
Jing Yichen didnt mind being teased by her. He had read through all the books about pregnant women. He had taken them from Mu Qing and called him many times a day. He needed to ask Mu Qing for confirmation when some contradictory things urred in the books or some mistakes happened.
He was really happy that Shangguan Ning had gotten pregnant. His heart was full of love and he wished that his woman and child would be safe and healthy.
Chapter 360 - Boy or Girl?
Chapter 360: Boy or Girl?
Before Shangguan Ning got pregnant, Jing Yichen had no strong feelings towards children.
He felt that things should flow naturally and it did not matter when he was going to get a child. He had not been as anxious as Shangguan Ning.
For him, Shangguan Ning was the only person in his heart who satisfied him and was enough for him. He had given all of his love to her and spent all the energy and attention upon her only.
He couldnt imagine what it would be like when he bes a father. He was a ruthless and distant person and felt that even if he got a child, he would not change that much, because he would only love Shangguan Ning.
But it turned out to be different from what he had imagined.
The moment he knew that Shangguan Ning was pregnant, his heart had leapt up with joyful emotions. It was a feeling far beyond description.
He finally understood why Shangguan Ning had always wanted to be a mother.
Women tended to have much more affection than men, especially when it came to children. In the case of most parents, mother was more devoted than the father, not because of thebor division at home, but because women were born that way.
Shangguan Ning liked children, which Jing Yichen had known right at the beginning of their marriage.
Everytime when they were walking in thepound or on the wooden nk by the seashore, she would stare at children with a gentle look for a long time if they ran into any. He could imagine that she would be a very good mother rearing her child with love and patience.
Whenever Jing Yichen saw those children in thepound, he never had any reaction. Nor did he allow any child to touch him, let alone y with one.
But after Shangguan Ning got pregnant, his mind underwent aplete change.
He began to love children and his heart would soften now whenever that he saw them. He didnt even react badly if any child happened to touch him. That was an incredible feat in Jing Yichens eyes.
He changed so much just because of the fact that Shangguan Ning had be pregnant with his baby. He still couldnt believe that she was going to be the mother of their child.
Ning, I am really happy. I will definitely take good care of you and the child. Thank you, my darling. It feels fantastic.
Jing Yichens voice was gentle and indulgent, making Shangguan Nings heart flutter.
She stretched up on her toes to kiss Jing Yichens chin. She was beaming as well. It feels fantastic. I am going to be a mother! There will be three of us. I am delighted and grateful.
Shangguan Ning had not yet made any changes in her daily life because her pregnancy didnt give her any difort. Because of this, she kept suspecting that she might be dreaming and the next day she would wake up and find herself not pregnant.
But today when all of her favourite things were taken away by Jing Yichen and she was forbidden to wear high-heels, she finally felt that she was going to be a mother.
She was also concerned about her little baby. She understood how Jing Yichen felt at the momentpletely, because she felt the exactly same thing as well.
Jing Yichen ced a hand upon her belly gently and said with disbelief and joy, He is here now. We are waiting for him to grow up. It is going to be so good... with our baby!
Shangguan Ning had never heard him talk in this tone. She smiled involuntarily, Yes, he is growing up. I hope that he will grow to be like you, as handsome and as smart as you!
Jing Yichen was fascinated by what she said. He pinched her beautiful nose as he said with a smile, How did you know it is a boy? Maybe she is a girl. Then she will be like you, beautiful and smart.
Shangguan Ning said in a-matter-of-fact tone, Grandpa says that it will be a great-grandson. He says that it is a tradition that Family Jing always has boys. I believe what he says.
Jing Yichen thought that either would do. But Shangguan Ning preferred boys. She really wanted to give birth to a Jing Yichen junior.
She felt that both daughter and son would look very good if they resemble Jing Yichen more.
He was so handsome and had lovely eyes and she wanted the same for her child.
Jing Yichen burst intoughter and kissed her cheek. Dont believe Grandpa. He is just saying so. He couldnt possibly know anything when Grandpa Mu doesnt know it yet.
Shangguan Ning slipped her hands around his broad waist and buried her face into his chest as she asked, Do you prefer a son or a daughter?
She had been holding back the question for a long time before finally asking it.
She felt that Family Jing would certainly hope that it was a boy C grandpa had already put his thought across that he wanted a great-grandson.
Therefore, Shangguan Ning somehow felt pressured.
Jing Yichen knew Shangguan Ning more than she understood him. He was aware of this little concern in her heart.
He looked her directly into the eyes and said seriously, I would like either, as long as it is your baby. So will father and grandpa. They want an heir, but if you give us a girl, I am sure that they will love her deeply too. No girls have appeared in five generations of Family Jing and if you do give birth to a girl, she is definitely going to be a loved princess.
Jing Yichen was telling the truth. Family Jing would like the baby no matter if it was a girl or a boy. If it turned out to be a boy, then he would get treated the way he ought to be treated. But if it turned out to be a girl, Jing Zhongxiu, who had always wanted a daughter would treat the baby as a treasure. So would Jing Tianyuan.
You dont need to be worried or feel concerned. Our child will be the best, irrespective of gender.
Shangguan Ning was so moved by his words that she became teary eyed.
He understood how she felt and was trying to soothe her bewilderment with his sincerity.
She was just overthinking the whole matter.
Jing Yichen was sure that he would adore their child, so would grandpa and father, be it a boy or a girl.
Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief inside her heart. She liked that all men of Family Jing were influential and strong, always defending her, protecting her and spoiling her, treating her as their own.
Chapter 361 - Temptation
Chapter 361: Temptation
The pressure inside Shangguan Nings heart was released. Soon she fell asleep inside Jing Yichens arms.
A bitter, she felt Jing Yichensrge hands gently massaging her stomach and then her lips being sucked and kissed by him.
She heard himugh ironically. Have I been deprived of the benefits because of the unborn child? You are in my arms but I cant do anything to you ...
The following morning when Shangguan Ning woke up, she found herself nestled against Jing Yichens strong and naked chest.
She touched her belly gently and suddenly felt full with happiness.
Shangguan Nings lips curved into a smile and she dropped a kiss on Jing Yichens chest.
Baby, you dare to kiss me on the sly again...
Shangguan Ning had not expected that Jing Yichen was awake. She got startled and then purposefully bit upon one of his nipples with a wicked grin.
Jing Yichen was shocked by the sensation. His eyes widened and he looked extremely dangerous in the moment. Baby, do you wish to y with fire?
He sounded hoarse, his low sexy voice making Shangguan Nings heart throb.
Usually, Jing Yichen would get intimate with her every day when he woke up in the morning and most of the time, they would end up having sex...
But now, Shangguan Ning was the one clinging to him.
And she only realized now that she was really ying with fire!
Well... I just gave you some kisses, thats all. Dont take it seriously. Dont you want to go to work? Time to get up now!
She changed the subject and then tried to wiggle out of his arms.
But it was already toote.
Jing Yichen instantly shifted her upon himself. He made her lie on top of him, giving her a flirty look.
Just some kisses? Jing Yichens eyebrows raised as he ced hisrge hands upon Shangguan Nings butt and pinched them. Then maybe I should return the favour!
Shangguan Ning was a sensitive girl. Soon she melted under his touch.
Her face flushed as if she was drunk. She pleaded in a soft voice, Sorry, Yichen. I was wrong! Please release me, not now. The baby will be hurt...
Dont worry, I have figured out a way so that the baby wont be hurt. Shall we try it? Jing Yichen gave her a wicked look making Shangguan Ning flush even more. Her heart started to gallop at a fast speed.
She shook her head in panic and said shyly, No, I dont want it. You are so evil! Let go of me...
We didnt know about the pregnancy a couple of days ago. Do you remember how much fun we had that night? You are killing me, baby, for not letting me touch you...
Jing Yichen sounded hoarse as hisrge hands groped inside Shangguan Nings pj and his teeth found their way to her soft earlobe, biting it softly.
Shangguan Ning kept thinking of the crazy scene from a couple of days ago, when they had had wild sex. Her heart started to hop so violently that she almost copsed.
Lucky that Mu Wensheng had noticed her pregnancy, otherwise the baby would have been in danger if Jing Yichen kept doing that to her.
Shangguan Ning was tempted but was afraid of hurting the baby, so she pushed Jing Yichen away and tried to get up.
But she was not as strong as him, who had been holding back his feelings for too many days now
Baby, listen to me, dont move too much. I wont hurt the baby...
Shangguan Ning had no idea why she let herself be swayed by him every time. She finally gave into the lure of this handsome man.
The bedroom heated up with their actions and their moans could be heard clearly.
But Jing Yichen stopped after the first time, considering that Shangguan Ning was pregnant.
Soon afterwards, a tired Shangguan Ning copsed on Jing Yichens body and allowed him to carry her into the bathroom, naked.
In the bathroom, Shangguan Ning blushed at the sight of his well formed chest and tapered waist. His stomach was t and the long legs added to the lure, not to mention the still hard penis of his.
He was in such excellent shape that she always got nervous at the sight of him.
She wondered what he had eaten while growing up that he could get such a well-proportioned body.
Maybe she had stared at him for too long in an enchanted way that Jing Yichen who was in the middle of drawing a bath for her, said in a low voice, Do you still need to stare at me for so long after sleeping in my arms every single day? You have seen me so many times and still cant get enough? Have you fallen in love with me once again?
Shangguan Ning red at him, thinking that this man was way too smart to figure out whatever she was thinking. At this rate, she could never hide anything from him.
But she indeed liked Jing Yichen and there was no way out. He didnt have a single ounce of extra fat over him and he was so attractive that she fell for him every time sheid her eyes on him.
I like you, every single day...
Shangguan Ning didnt want to conceal her love for Jing Yichen and she couldnt have done it had she tried. Her expression showed everything.
Jing Yichens eyes sparkled. He lowered his head and dropped a kiss upon her red lips. Do you love me, baby?
This question had been answered many times, but Shangguan Ning still answered seriously and sincerely. Yes!
How much?
Too much!
Baby, lets do it again, I want you so badly...
...
An hourter, Shangguan Ning made up her mind that she needed to be very careful the next time she confessed her feelings to Jing Yichen, in case this wolf-like President would eat her up again.
Jing Yichen said calmly, You seduced me first, both times. Well, you are my Achilles heel and my self control breaks the moment I see you. Its not my fault, you are the culprit.
Shangguan Ning was amused by his unreasonableness. She bit hard on his shoulder but Jing Yichen said with a smile, I am strong enough to handle your bite. But my heart aches for your broken tooth.
Also...
He looked up Shangguan Ning from head to feet and winked. He said huskily, Are you sure you want to bite me whilst standing naked in front of me?
Chapter 362 - Unreliable Aunt Zhao (Part One)
Chapter 362: Unreliable Aunt Zhao (Part One)
Shangguan Ning reacted in panic and climbed on to the bed with her hands over her chest. She stared at Jing Yichen who waspletely naked as well.
She said in an anxious tone, Get dressed, now!
Jing Yichen stopped teasing her, and wore his PJ. He went to get some clothes from the wardrobe for Shangguan Ning, ced them onto the bed before getting the clothes for himself.
After getting ready, the couple went to the dining room for breakfast. Sister Lan ced the breakfast quickly, at the sight of them.
As Shangguan Ning sat down at the dining table, she couldnt help but get startled looking at the tremendously changed breakfast menu.
It was simply too luxurious to... have more than a dozen dishes spread on the table.
She turned around to the man next to her.
I selected the dishes myself. They are full of nutrients and harmless to the child. Just eat.
Jing Yichen served her a bowl of soup while saying so.
Shangguan Ning rolled her eyes in frustration. That was not what she was worried about.
This is too much. We cant finish them. It is such a waste! Dont get so much prepared any more. Four dishes are enough already. Lets just eat like we did before!
Dont worry about wasting. Eat as much as you can. Just pick the ones you like. Hurry up, they may get cold.
Jing Yichen looked unfazed. Apparently he had not taken in a single word that Shangguan Ning said. The breakfast would be the same the following day.
Shangguan Ning shook her head helplessly and finally gave in.
Maybe it was because of the variety, but Shangguan Ning ate rtively more that morning. She usually didnt have an appetite for breakfast.
Jing Yichen also noticed that she had eaten well. He smiled and felt that it had been the right decision to get all this prepared.
Shangguan Ning was eating for two at the moment so she needed to take in more nutrients. Otherwise she and the baby would be affected.
He was rich enough to afford everything. What was the point of being a miser? As long as Shangguan Ning got happy and was satisfied about the food.
After breakfast, Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning to Family Mus Hospital.
Although Mu Wensheng had felt the pulse for Shangguan Ning and confirmed that all was fine with her, he had also proposed that Shangguan Ning should get aprehensive pregnancy examination with thetest equipment at the Mu hospital.
Jing Yichen had already told Mu Qing about it yesterday. They went to his office straight away.
Mu Qing greeted them happily. It had been him who cured Jing Yichen. So it was as much his achievement when thedy got pregnant.
Congrattions, Master Jing and Sister-inw. This is great news. I got so excited after receiving your call yesterday that I couldnt sleep the entire night.
Mu Qing hair was well-trimmed and he was dressed in immacte clothes. Suns rays prated through the window and cast a reflection on his face. He looked fresh and radiant totally unlike someone who had had a sleepless night!
Jing Yichen was used to the way he talked. So he had no expressions on his face. But Shangguan Ning was feeling grateful. With a smile, she said, Sorry to trouble you again, Doctor Mu!
No trouble at all. I am d to be at the service of a beautifuldy! Mu Qing was feeling a bit over excited and used his often employed phrase on her which he said to all his other female patients.
Jing Yichens freezing look swept over him immediately and he had to change his words in fright. I am d to be at the service of the Lady! I am your servant at all times.
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter after hearing how Mu Qing addressed her.
Mu Qing was like Zhao Anan in every way. He was someone who could talk, joke andugh happily.
Keeping his face neutral, Jing Yichen put a hand on her waist and helped Shangguan Ning sit down on a chair.
Mu Qing seriously thought that Jing Yichen suffered from personality disorder when he saw how differently Jing Yichen treated him and Shangguan Ning.
He was treating others like a frozen iceberg. How could he be so gentle and sweet with in an instant when it came to Shangguan Ning?
Just look at him, behaving as if Shangguan Ning was the apple of his eye. Jing Yichen was worried that she would run into or bump into something. He would not have moved his eyes off Shangguan Ning if Mu had not said those words to her.
Man, what a huge difference in behaviour! He had saved Jing Yichen so many times but had almost been killed by his re just now because he addressed Shangguan Ning as a beautifuldy!
Why was he positioned so low in the eyes of Jing Yichen and Zhao Anan? They did not treat him nicely at all. What had he done in his previous life that he had to pay back the debt in this birth?
Lucky that Shangguan Ning treated him in a friendly manner.
Shangguan Ning trusted Mu Qing and Grandpa Mu deeply. She considered them as top-notch doctors and felt that it was great to be friends with Mu Qing who was an excellent doctor.
Therefore, she was even more certain that she would ce Zhao Anan on Mu Qings side, no matter whether Zhao Anan wanted it or not.
If she could be part of Family Mu, then she would be a cat with nine lives C very difficult to die!
But where was Zhao Anan today? She was always next to Mu Qing, wasnt she?
She was no longer trapped. But was Mu Qing not worried that she would run away?
Doctor Mu, where is Anan?
Mu Qing was about to say something when the door of the office was banged open. Zhao Anan came in with unkempt hair and creased clothes.
She spread her hands in front of Mu Qing with drowsy eyes. Give me the keys. I want to go home and sleep.
She was asking Mu Qing for the keys to his apartment which was located next door. During the past few days, Mu Qing had taken Zhao Anan to his own home.
Shangguan Nings widened and said in surprise. Anan, what is wrong with you? Why are you...
She looked as if she had been punched by someone. Her hair was unkempt, clothes untidy. She looked like a mess.
Zhao Anan turned to look absently at Shangguan Ning and then noticed that it was her best friend who stood in front of her.
She yawned, and said in a hoarse voice, Oh, my Beauty. Why are you here again? Are you sick?
She looked slightly better at the sight of Shangguan Ning. But was still very drowsy.
Jing Yichen frowned at the sight of her messy look and got upset when he heard her asking if Shangguan Ning was sick again. He spoke in his cold voice, unhappily, Ning is fine. She is here for the pregnancy examination. She is pregnant.
Zhao Anan got startled after hearing what he said. Her sleepiness vanished instantly.
Chapter 363 - Unreliable Aunt Zhao (Part Two)
Chapter 363: Unreliable Aunt Zhao (Part Two)
Zhao Anan sprang up all of a sudden, rushed towards Shangguan Ning like a st of wind and said with barely suppressed excitement, Oh Beauty, you are pregnant?
She moved so fast that Shangguan Ning got startled.
Jing Yichen stood in front of Zhao Anan with his arms crossed and warned her. Back off, stay away from Ning!
Zhao Anan red at her cousin when she failed to take Shangguan Ning in her arms. Why? Why must I stay away from Ning?
Jing Yichen stared at her coldly and spoke from the ce, without moving an inch. You are too active and full of potential viruses and bacteria, extremely dangerous! You mustnt approach Ning now anymore because she is pregnant!
Zhao Anan stomped her feet angrily but then calmed herself down. There was no use arguing with this man. She stood there and said excitedly, Ning, you are pregnant. I feel incredible!
Shangguan Ning pushed Jing Yichens arm away and pulled Zhao Anan closer. She said with the same level of excitement. Yes, I am pregnant! I also find it unbelievable, but it is true!
Zhao Anan dared not move as she wished. Although Shangguan Ning had pulled her closer but she remembered Jing Yichens warning.
She knew that she had not changed her clothes for the past two to three days now. She was indeed in a mess. Therefore she didnt want to approach Shangguan Ning, fearing that she may cause infection to Shangguan Ning and the baby, unintentionally.
Zhao Anan took hold of Shangguan Nings hands carefully and said with wonder in her voice, Oh god, how time flies! I feel that it was only yesterday when we were school teachers and now you are going to be a mother. God bless you, I am so happy and assured that you are living a happy life.
What she said sounded strange for a moment as if it was a farewell speech. But Shangguan Ning ignored that fleeting feeling. She thought that Zhao Anan was simply overwhelmed.
Besides, whenever she saw Zhao Anan, she felt sorry for her because of Zhao Anans low possibility of giving birth to babies.
Despite Jing Yichen frowning at her, she kept holding Zhao Anans hands and said with emotions, Anan, we will both be happy, trust me!
Zhao Anans emotional statested temporarily. She burst intoughter because she had be curious about a few things.
Oh, Beauty, I am going to be an Aunt soon. Are you pregnant with one baby or two? Is it going to be a nephew or a niece? When is the due date? I want to y with the baby.
Shangguan Nings emotions that had just swarmed up, cooled down as well. She said helplessly, When will you be calm and sane?
I have got only one baby. Not sure about the gender. The due date will be next year and maybe another year before he is able to y with the unreliable Aunt Zhao.
Zhao Anan wanted to touch Shangguan Nings belly when she noticed Jing Yichens killing look. She withdrew her hands and bellowed at Mu Qing instead. Scumbag Mu, why didnt you tell me about me bing an aunt? Are you trying to get yourself killed for concealing such a huge matter?
She sounded so fierce, like a hooligan, totally different from ady from the famous Family Zhao.
Mu Qing struck the table and imed his innocence. My Lady, I received this news yesterday. You didnte homest night and stayed with Zheng Lun for the entire day, ignoring mepletely. Let me see, how many calls did I make to you? You answered none of them. When did I have a chance to tell you about this?
Zhao Anan got startled and pondered over the matter. What he said sounded correct. But she still red at Mu Qing as if ming him.
She turned her head and focused upon Shangguan Ning again.
She had only a few friends and none of them had got pregnant till now. Seeing her best friend getting pregnant, she got way too excited!
She almost forgot that she had once been pregnant too.
But why did she remember nothing of that time?
All she remembered was feeling very scared when she had found out about her pregnancy rather than being happy about it.
She was 17 years old back then and Mu Qing was only 20. She waste in getting her period and Mu Qing had discovered her pregnancy without a check-up or a pregnancy test. Both of them had panicked after knowing that she was pregnant.
But now she was delighted when she heard that Shangguan Ning was pregnant!
Zhao Anan was in a good mood. She was not upset that she couldnt give birth to babies. She was just truly happy for Shangguan Ning.
She wanted to know how big the baby had grown already and if it was a boy or a girl and if he would be as good-looking as Jing Yichen or as beautiful as Shangguan Ning.
She was simply too curious!
Shangguan Ning smiled. She understood how Zhao Anan was feeling. She was amazed as well.
But she was more curious about why Zhao Anan looked as if she had been robbed.
Mu Qing had revealed that Zhao Anan was with Zheng Lun yesterday, but howe she got so messed up being in Zheng Lunspany. She even had two bruises on her cheeks and it seemed that she was punched.
Zhao Anan often got into fights. She was like a boy who couldnt tolerate injustice or bullying.
Shangguan Ning was worried that she had been injured out of kindness towards someone.
She frowned looking at Zhao Anans hands, Anan, where have you been? Why are you in this state? Zheng Lun is not a violent person, as far as I can remember.
Zhao Anan was very distressed by what had been happening during the past two days.
She threw herself onto the chair next to Shangguan Ning and said loudly, I am in a mess not because of Lun, but because of Zheng Jing. He is a scumbag. I have been exercising with him since yesterday and now here I am!
The water Mu Qing had been drinking, gushed out in one shot, all of a sudden.
Chapter 364 - A Friend with a Strong Sense of Justice
Chapter 364: A Friend with a Strong Sense of Justice
Mu Qing sprang up from the chair all of a sudden and bellowed angrily. What did you say, Zhao Anan? Say it once again! Bastard Zheng Jing, doesnt he know that a friends wife can never be offended? I will kill him if he has dared to touch my girlfriend.
Zhao Anan tugged her creased sleeves and said calmly, What are you getting so excited about? I meant to say that I had a fight with him.
She wanted tough but she held it inside and sat in a poised manner on the chair.
Unfortunately, with a bruised face, unkempt hair and wrinkled clothes, she didnt look elegant at all. More so, when there was dust all over her.
Mu Qing got so enraged by Zhao Anans words that he almost lost his breath.
Zhao Anan, could you please not take such a long break in the middle of a sentence? No, I mean, cant you use some urate words? What do you mean by exercise? Fights cant be considered as exercises. That might cause misunderstandings. Dont you know that if Zheng Jing were here at this moment, I would have given him the needle?
Zhao Anan didnt want to concede. Instead, she raised her neck and bellowed. I have always considered fighting as exercising. Can only naked wrestling with you in bed be considered as an exercise? Why did you me me for the misunderstanding? You are not thinking like an innocent man, you ignorant scumbag!
Mu Qing got so annoyed by what she said. Ask others what exercise means. If a man and a woman are exercising together, then they are not in a fight!
Zhao Anan snapped. If a man and a woman are doing exercise together, they are in the middle of a demon fight!
...
Shangguan Ning got very irritated hearing them argue with each other over somethingpletely irrelevant to the topic.
She cut in instantly in the middle of the argument and said, Anan, why did you get into a fight with Zheng Jing? Did he annoy you?
Zheng Jing appeared to be calmer than Mu Qing, and because of his profession, he behaved in a very discreet way. He cared about others and would never get in a fight with Zhao Anan under normal circumstances.
Did Zhao Anan annoy Zheng Jing, instead?
Sure enough! Zhao Anan said in a careless tone, Oh, well, I ... hit his girlfriend, someone called Zhu or Yang...
Shangguan Nings eyes widened. She burst out. You hit Zhu Ruotong? What did you hit her for?
After she finished what she said, she immediately realized something. No way, you couldnt have beaten Zhu Ruotong. She is a police officer and graduated from an excellent military school. I knew that she was well trained the moment I saw her. You couldnt have been good enough for her.
Well, I... used some drugs. I took them from Mu Qing and they worked! Zhao Anan sounded a bit guilty at the beginning butter she became excited.
Shangguan Ning was speechless. What was going on here? Howe she had picked up such terrible tricks from Mu Qing?
How badly did you hurt Zhu Ruotong that Zheng Jing got irritated?
Well, not so badly. Just broke a few rib bones and her face swelled up, totally unrecognizable, even for her mother.
What? Why did you hurt her so badly? And why the face? She is not your enemy. Shangguan Ning got startled.
She had broken two ribs of the girl and thought that it was not a serious matter? What was a serious matter then? A broken head?
Zhao Anan didnt agree and said innocently, Of course she is my enemy. She wants to rob Lun of her man. I must teach her a lesson.
Hang on, mydy, hang on! Mu Qing found something weird about her words. He cut in.
What do you mean by Zheng Jings girlfriend and Zheng Luns man? Did you mix things up? Is Zheng Jings girlfriends boyfriend not Zheng Jing, or Zheng Lun likes her... brother?
Damn, that soundedplicated.
Zhao Anan got annoyed and red at Mu Qing angrily. Stop with your tongue twisters! Get out of here, no more interruption.
Mu Qing became quiet. But he was extremely stimted by this piece of gossip and stared at Zhao Anan with excitement, expecting that she would spill out something more.
Jing Yichen sitting next to Shangguan Ning had no reaction at all. He didnt care whom Zheng Lun liked. What he cared about was that Shangguan Ning might get tired after sitting for so long.
Shangguan Ning was not physically tired but was mentally exhausted. She was being tormented by Zhao Anan.
Zhu Ruotong is Zheng Jings girlfriend and they are in love with each other. Why are you interfering? It is impossible with Lun, even if they are not real siblings. It is fair that Zheng Jing has a girlfriend. No more messing up!
Shangguan Nings words didnt get through Zhao Anan.
I dont care if they are siblings. They are not real siblings to start with, and even if they were, no one can take him away from her as long as Lun likes him.
Zhao Anan got so annoyed when she thought of the way Zheng Jing and Zhu Ruotong talked with each other.
Zheng Jing is definitely a scumbag. Lun likes him so much and he still went and hooked up with someone else. Lun is devastated and has lost so much weight recently.
Oh girl, Zheng Jing was not hooking up with someone else. He was in a normal rtionship. Zheng Lun did love him, but her love couldnt possibly be epted by their family!
Shangguan Ning sighed. I also want to help Lun, but it is not so easy. It is about incest and morality. Her mother treats her like her own daughter and wont be able to ept the fact that her daughter would marry her son!
That is why I need to help Lun. Zhao Anan looked so sad. I was thinking that I could deal with Zhu Ruotong on Luns behalf. Maybe her mother would not say anything if she and Zheng Jing created something.
Speaking of that, Zhao Anans face brightened. Oh right! If Lun is pregnant with a child, then all problems will be solved. Ahahahah, I am a genius to havee up with such an excellent idea. I need to teach Lun something!
Oh yes, Mu, get me some drugs that can boost a mans sexual appetite. I will drug Zheng Jing soon.
Chapter 365 - Plan A, B, C
Chapter 365: n A, B, C
Mu Qing hesitated at this moment.
He was not sure if he should bend down to his woman to set a trap up for his buddy or stop his woman from doing something stupid to his buddy.
But it was not too long before Shangguan Ning came to his rescue.
No, dont do that Anan! Shangguan Ning got both annoyed and anxious.
She held Zhao Anans hands and said with a serious expression, You can offer help, but not in this way. First of all, we have to know what Zheng Jing thinks. If he has feelings for Lun, then it will be easier. But if he doesnt like Lun in that way and regards her as his sister, then you are just going to ruin her.
Zhao Anan nodded after thinking for a moment. That is true. It seems that n A doesnt work, so we have to implement n B.
Shangguan Ning almost fainted. You have got a n B?
She knew that n B wasnt going to be any better after knowing about n A.
Zhao Anan raised her chin proudly. Of course, I am very considerate. I cane up with one more n if this one doesnt work. I have many solutions and it is just a matter of whether or not they work out.
You are considerate? Honestly, how did you get in a fight with Zheng Jing if you are a considerate person? Havent you put Lun into an awkward situation after starting a fight with him?
I didnt fight with him. Had I hit him, Lun would have been very sad. But it was ok to hurt that Zhu woman a little bit, no? But Zheng Jing got upset and when he did, I just couldnt back down either!
Zhao Anan looked justified as if she had done the right thing.
I used the power upon Zhu Ruotong so Zheng Jing took advantage of me. In the beginning I was losing, because I was too careless. But after hours of fighting, he got injured more than I did after I used some tricks. Haha!
You fought with him for hours?! Zhao Anan was never tired!
Oh yes, I could have hit him down to the ground had Lun not kept crying to stop me. Unfortunately, he was still standing there when I left. He is quite strong, huh?!
Shangguan Ning had no idea what to say.
Zhao Anan said that she was taken advantage of, but Zheng Jing must have used his strength sparingly. Honestly, even ten Zhao Anan together would not have been able to take him down!
The bruises on Zhao Anans face must have been a forced move by Zheng Jing. Maybe she kept badgering him for too long. He had apparently not done enough, otherwise Zhao Anan would have got a bloated face.
Zhao Anan looked so self-satisfied that Jing Yichen couldnt stand it anymore. He red at her and said, The reason why you can still talk in this way is because Zheng Jing didnt use any strength. He was just toying with you.
Having said the words, he took a pause and said, Or maybe, he was just putting on a show for someone else to see.
Shangguan Ning got startled. An idea just popped in her head C so Zheng Jing was putting on a show for Zheng Lun so that she would know how important Zhu Ruotong was in his heart. It was to show Lun that he could even fight with Zhao Anan just because of Zhu Ruotong?
Zhao Anan was not really injured except for a couple of bruises. Apparently, Zheng Jing had not really been furious.
Otherwise, he would have hit her hard.
I remember that someone was once permanently disabled by Zheng Jing just because he was thinking about his sister.
Mu Qing took a sip of tea and tried to recall the old memory. Oh yes, disabled. Totally paralyzed, just because he said that he couldnt fall asleep due to missing Zheng Lun for days!
See the difference? You hit his girlfriend hard but you only lost two strands of your hair. What does that mean?
Everyone turned to Mu Qing who said with pride. That means that I am an honored person. He didnt hit Anan because of me!
Apparently, Mu Qing also knew that his buddy had spared Anan, otherwise she would not have been alive now.
But he didnt seem to get the reason for it.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anans eyes widened. Jing Yichens words made them be certain that Zheng Jing didnt have much feelings for Zhu Ruotong. Instead, he cared a lot for Zheng Lun, be it a brotherly feeling or of love.
Zhao Anan got a bit excited. She pped her hands and said with a sinister smile. Now, time for my n C!
What? n C?
Since when did Zhao Anan start to make so many ns?
But judging from the way she smiled, it seemed to be an ominous one. Zheng Jing might end up suffering a lot.
To try and stop her from creating further mess, Shangguan Ning asked her. Please, tell me what is your n C?
Haha, n C means n A plus n B! The double torment of body and mind. He is going to be yed.
Shangguan Ning wanted to bite off her own tongue. Why did she ask when she knew that nothing good woulde out of her friends mouth?
Mu, get me some more drugs. I will need to use them really soon. Also, you must keep this a secret. If Zheng Jing gets to know my evil ns, I will hold you responsible.
Mu Qing felt that he was in the worst situation in the entire world.
But he made up his mind within one second between whether he should pick his woman or his buddy. Dont worry. I will not spill a word.
Shangguan Ning looked at the couple who reached apromise within such a short time. She was about to stop Zhao Anan but then she felt that this might be the only chance for Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing to be together.
Zhao Anan had always been lucky for others. Ning was forced to go on a blind date with Jing Yichen back then and now they were living a happy life. What if the same thing happened to Zheng Lun as well?
Shangguan Ning didnt stop Zhao Anan any further.
She knew how much Zheng Lun liked Zheng Jing. She also wanted Zheng Lun to be happy. She was a kind and innocent girl who deserved to taste true love and wonderful marriage.
But how did Zheng Jing feel about Zheng Lun?
Shangguan Ning was just thinking about that when the office door was opened again. A tall and muscr man in uniform came in.
Mu Qing tried to stop himself from smiling at the sight of his face. Instead, he put on a pretentious show. What happened to you Zheng Jing? Did you ... get injured by Anan?
Chapter 366 - A Worse Situation
Chapter 366: A Worse Situation
Zheng Jing did look quite pitiful.
His hair was unkempt and the usually well-ironed police uniform was dirty and wrinkled. His sleeves were ripped, disying the bronze colored arms.
There was a bruise on his cheeks, nose and ears. The wound on the ears was apparently a result of biting.
Shangguan Ning thought that Zhao Anan must have been truly annoyed to have bitten him in this way.
Zheng Jing didnt look surprised to see Zhao Anan here. Nor did he care about the wound on himself. But he was apparently surprised to see Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning here.
He greeted Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning and said to Mu Qing. Mu Qing, my girlfriend is now at your hospital. Two of her rib bones are broken, and her inner organs are hurt. The doctor has checked her, but can you look at her for me? I dont want anything bad to happen to her.
Mu Qing looked at him in slight surprise. Aha, your girlfriend is here too?
He had just said the words when Zhao Anan rushed to him instantly. She dragged him back and said with annoyance, You are not allowed to check her. I broke her rib bones so she can suffer. Get her out of the hospital. No more treatment here.
Zheng Jing turned to Zhao Anan, frowning. But soon he gave her a short smile. Anan, I need to thank you for hitting Zhu Ruotong, because I am going to get engaged with her now. She is injured because of me, and only by getting engaged with her, I can make it up to her. If something happens to her because of dyed treatment and she gets permanent injuries, then I will definitely have to marry her, otherwise I would feel very guilty.
Zhao Anan gotpletely startled. She burst out and said, What... did you say?
Zheng Jing still had a mild smile on the face. Yes, you have heard me right. I am going to get engaged with Zhu Ruotong. Are you going to stop Mu Qing from treating her?
He was not joking with Zhao Anan nor was he trying to provoke her. He was really going to get engaged with Zhu Ruotong because of her injuries.
He had been hesitant about it, because he truly had no affection towards Zhu Ruotong. She was like a brother to him.
He had been struggling inside his mind, because he didnt want to leave Zheng Lun and get married. He wanted to guard her for however long it might take.
But Zhao Anan had made him realize the truth.
Marrying Zhu Ruotong was what he should do. His mother liked her and she would be an ideal daughter-inw.
Zheng Lun was his sister after all and not just a recement to his real sister. They were siblings. She even used his sisters real name. He mustnt change the mind, never!
So the best way for them to break up was that one of them married someone else.
It didnt seem to be possible for Zheng Lun to marry someone else. She turned down all the men apart from him.
Then it was left to him to get married.
At least, he didnt dislike Zhu Ruotong. He could spend his life with her in camaraderie. They had many things inmon with each other.
Zheng Jing also felt that Zhu Ruotong had approached him not because she liked him, but because she regarded him as a buddy. She respected him for his ability to solve cases and wanted to learn from him. She had no romantic fantasy about her marriage. What she hoped was that marriage could help her improve herself.
She was more interested in cases than in men but because of the family pressure from her family when she reached 30 years old, she agreed to be with Zheng Jing as a couple.
But she was very annoyed to have been badly injured by Zhao Anan. She had never been humiliated like this in her entire life.
She had only been injured in a situation where she fought with viins as a policewoman of A City. She was very upset to have been drugged and hit by a woman.
Zhu Ruotong had not said a word on the way from Family Zheng to Family Mus Hospital. Zheng Jing knew that she was annoyed, but he had no idea how to console his friend. He knew how tofort Zheng Lun, but not a woman like Zhu Ruotong.
He was feeling very guilty. Zhu Ruotong was injured because of him. She was capable enough to be injured by almost no one.
Therefore, Zheng Jing decided to get engaged with Zhu Ruotong.
Zhao Anan couldnt recover from her surprise after standing there for a long time.
She finally resurfaced when Mu Qing went outwards with Zheng Jing. She rushed up to close the door and stop them from leaving the room. No, you mustnt get engaged with that woman. If you do, I will drug her and kill her tomorrow!
Shangguan Ning watched the scene helplessly.
Zhao Anan was pursuing the man for her friend, but it looked as if she was the one in love with Zheng Jing.
Mu Qing also shook his head helplessly. Stop it now, Anan. I will go and see how badly has she been injured by you. I promise that if I get her back to feet, Zheng Jing would not get engaged with her, alright?
Mu Qing found the entire thing so ridiculous.
It sounded as if Zheng Jing would get engaged with Zhao Anan if he gave up on Zhu Ruotong!
Luckily, he knew Zhao Anan and Zheng Jings rtionship well enough, otherwise he would have definitely suspected that something was going on between the two of them.
Zhao Anan stood still for a while and allowed them to leave. She was worried that if anything happened to Zhu Ruotong, Zheng Jing would have to take responsibility for her for the entire life. Then she would truly have done a bad thing.
After they left, Zhao Anan went back to the chair with a drooping head. She scratched her unkempt hair. Ning, did I just make the situation worse?
Shangguan Ning smiled and said, I dont think so.
Zhao Anan looked up. What do you mean? Do you have any way to stop Zheng Jing from getting engaged with that woman?
No, I dont. But I have discovered a secret. Come, lets go and visit Zhu Ruotong. You have to apologize to her after injuring her, alright?
Shangguan Ning said as she stood up and started to walk outside.
Jing Yichen couldnt stand it any more. He took hold of Shangguan Nings hands and pulled her into her arms and said helplessly, Ning, we are here for the pregnancy examination. Cant you help others after we have finished with the examination?
Chapter 367 - Pregnancy Examination
Chapter 367: Pregnancy Examination
Oh, yes, thats right. I almost forgot about that matter. Lets go and do the pregnancy examination first!
Shangguan Ning pped her forehead and suddenly was reminded of the reason for her visit to the hospital.
But it was not her fault. She had not yet gotten used to the fact that she was pregnant, so she tended to forget about it.
Zhao Anan was reminded of Shangguan Nings being pregnant as well. In her eyes, nothing was more important than this matter at the moment. It was rted to her little nephew and Zhu Ruotong could wait! She was not going to get engaged with Zheng Jing today and even if they did get engaged today, she would have all kinds of methods to tear them apart.
Mu Qing is such a scumbag! Why did he go and check the woman instead of you first. I will teach him a lesson when he returns.
She talked in such a tone as if he was her husband, without probably even realizing it.
Jing Yichen said inposure. Mu Qing will not be the doctor for Ning. Someone else will be doing this.
Ah? Zhao Anan looked surprised. Why not Mu? Who is it then? Who can be better than him?
Jing Yichen was silent.
Pregnancy examinations required a level of intimacy with the patient. Therefore, he had asked Mu Qing to find a female doctor to do the check-up for Shangguan Ning. He couldnt possibly allow Shangguan Ning to get naked in front of Mu Qing. That would be worse than killing him.
They didnt wait for too long before a female doctor knocked at the door and entered.
The female doctor looked extremely young, not very beautiful but gentle and intelligent.
Zhao Anan stood up in astonishment at the sight of her. Mu Xin?
The woman called Mu Xin smiled at Zhao Anan. She didnt look that surprised. Anan, long time no see. Its good to see you here.
She gave Zhao Anan a hug despite her messy appearance. Then, she said, But I cant talk with you today. I am here at the order of my third brother. He wants me to do a check-up for his pregnant friend.
Zhao Anan realized what was going on. She said with a happy smile, Aha! That is great. Here is his friend, my cousin-inw. I ampletely assured now!
Mu Xin was not as good as Mu Qing, but she had a specialty C she was really aplished in gynecology. She was both experienced and discreet.
Mu Xin had already caught sight of Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen. She greeted Zhao Anan and then nodded at Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen. She recovered quickly after a moment of surprise at the sight of Jing Yichen instead of staring at him like the other female doctors at the hospital.
She extended her hand towards Shangguan Ning and said in a serious tone, Hello, my name is Mu Xin. I am Mu Qings younger cousin. He told me that the top guest of Family Mu is here and that I must do whatever I can do to make sure that the baby and the mother are safe and sound.
Shangguan Ning stood up with a smile and took hold of Mu Xins hands. Seems that Mu Qing has got an excellent cousin. I am sorry to trouble you! I am Shangguan Ning, the most frequent visitor of your familys hospital.
Mu Xin smiled. My third brother told me that the guest today is of great importance. But he never said that she was so pretty. I dont think that you are a frequent visitor of our hospital, otherwise our hospital will be thronged by people to see someone like you!
After some chit chat, Mu Xin exined the reason for being dyed. I am sorry I amte today. But my second brother and I are running a hospital for women and children where a pregnant woman was transferred from another hospital. And it was an emergency! So I had to be there until the baby was born and the mother was out of danger.
Mu Qing had told her repeated number of times the day before, that she must arrive here a bit earlier than expected. But an emergency urred at the hospital, stopping her from doing so. She just couldnt see the mother and the son lose their lives.
It was a pregnancy examination rather than something urgent, anyway. She would just be med for beingte. That was why she had decided to stay and finish the delivery.
Hence she needed to exin the entire matter in case Ning misunderstood her.
Shangguan Ning didnt me Mu Xin, because she had not known that Mu Qing would not be her doctor. After hearing what Mu Xin said, she had no intention of ming her for beingte anyway.
She only got to know the feeling of being a mother after she got pregnant. It was a tough journey that took ten months. Although the medical sciences were advanced at the moment and delivering babies was not a dangerous thing. Yet it was still not easy. It was reasonable for Mu Xin to stay back and take care of the woman.
That meant that she was very skilled. Otherwise an urgent case would not have been delivered to that hospital.
It is alright, Doctor Mu. I was not in a hurry. Grandpa Mu has already felt my pulse and he says that everything is fine. But he suggested that I should get an overall examination at the hospital just to be sure. You can deal with whatever you are busy with. Life is important, and you are a doctor who saves people. I understand that totally.
Mu Xin let out a sigh of relief after hearing what Shangguan Ning said.
She knew that grandpa had already felt Shangguan Nings pulse. He had already told her everything the day before, including Shangguan Nings identity.
Few people would have the chance of getting checked up by her grandpa. Apparently, Shangguan Ning was someone of great importance.
But she was a doctor of gynecology and obstetrics and she couldnt leave the woman who was inbor. She only wanted to make sure the woman could deliver the baby safely beforeing here.
Luckily, Shangguan Ning was a nice person who understood the demands of her profession well.
Mu Xin formed a good impression of her. She smiled and said, Come, lets get you and your baby checked up with the most advanced equipment. I may not be as good as my third brother in Chinese medicine, but I am as good as he is when ites to women and children!
Zhao Anan followed up and then noticed Jing Yichen walking behind her.
She turned around and said helplessly, My dear cousin. Can you go back and wait in the office? Your wife wont go missing and Mu Xin and I wont do anything to her. She will be given back to you with no harm done. Cant you just... leave us for a moment?
Chapter 368 - So?
Chapter 368: So?
Zhao Anan felt that her cousin had changed tremendously after marriage. He loved Shangguan Ning a bit too much to leave her alone. He followed her wherever she went and now when she had gotten pregnant, he couldnt be away even an inch from her.
Honestly, she got to know Shangguan Ning first but now she seemed like a terrorist. He was never assured when she was with Shangguan Ning.
Sure enough, Jing Yichen threw a cold look at her and said calmly, Not you, you are way too dirty!
Shangguan Ning who was ahead of them, heard their dialogue and burst intoughter. Alright, dont worry. Neither of you need to be with me. It wont take long. Yichen, go back to Doctor Mus office and wait for me there. Anan, go and freshen up. Take a shower and we can visit Zhu Ruotong together after I finish with the check-up.
Zhao Anan agreed instantly and dashed off. She was happy to have Mu Xin take care of Shangguan Ning. She got to know Mu Xin ages ago and back then, she was a nerdy woman who read every day and memorised boring and difficult theories of medical science. As a result, she had umted a huge knowledge about the medical field and did everything well.
Jing Yichen still refused to leave. He covered Shangguan Nings hand with his own and said softly, I will be waiting outside the examination room. Call me if you need me.
Shangguan Ning smiled and replied softly, Okay.
Actually, she was slightly nervous But with Jing Yichen standing outside, she felt much more assured.
After she and Mu Xin entered the examination room and sheid down on the bed, Mu Xin adjusted the equipment and said with a smile, I can tell that your husband loves you and you have a wonderful rtionship.
Happiness shed across Shangguan Nings face as she said gently, Yes, we are.
I am a gynecologist, so I have seen many husbands whoe along with their wives for the examination. But few are like Master Jing who would insist on waiting outside the door. Actually, he is the first and the only one. I have heard Third Brother mentioning Master Jing many times, but how he behaved surprised me. He seems different from how he is talked about.
Mu Xin ced the equipment upon Shangguan Nings wrist and sounded rather emotional.
Of course, she had heard a lot about Jing Yichen from Mu Qing yet none of it was as shocking as the fact that he was waiting for his wife outside the room.
She had assumed him to be a distant and arrogant man, one whom everyone looked up to. But Mu Xin was surprised to know that such a powerful man could love a woman so deeply.
However, that didnt reduce his charisma.
Mu Xin paused and said with a smile. I think you look cute together!
Shangguan Nings lips arched. Thank you!
That was the first time someone said that they were a cute couple. So Shangguan Ning felt very happy.
Shangguan Ning was still wearing a smile when they finished all the examinations and came out of the room.
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief at the sight of her. He picked up one of her hands and said with a soft voice, Finished?
Shangguan Ning nodded. Yes, the examination is finished. Doctor Mu Xin says that both I and the baby are doing well. We need toe for a check up every month.
Oh good. Jing Yichen soundedposed but Shangguan Ning knew that he was relieved and happy.
He slipped his hand across Shangguan Nings waist and took her back to Mu Qings office.
Mu Qing was already there. He stood up instantly at the sight of the couple. How was it? The examination is finished? My cousin is an expert in obstetrics and gynecology. She is young but she is excellent. You dont need to worry about a thing!
Shangguan Ning nodded and said with a smile. I am not worried. She says that I am doing fine and that I cane to her whenever I want. Your cousin is a nice woman and she seems very professional. I can tell that she loves her job, so I will have to depend on her from now on!
Mu Qing got delighted inside his heart after hearing what she said. Heughed and said, Okay then, she will be your special doctor from now on!
They were just talking when Mu Xin walked in. Third Brother, you sold me off so fast!
Mu Qing red at the sight of her. You bad girl, didnt I ask youe here earlier? You are half an hourte! Are you asking for a beating?
I am so sorry, Third Brother! Something came up at the hospital. I will never let this happen again. Please, forgive me! Mu Xin begged for mercy with a smile, otherwise Mu Qin would keep lecturing her for the entire day.
So your hospital cant function without you? Family Mus Hospital can go on well without me. Are you going to be tied up at the hospital all the time? Do you know that you must learn to delegate?
Mu Qing didnt want to let her off. He grabbed her and pushed her on the chair, fully ready to impart a long page of lessons to her.
Mu Xin didnt know how to deal with Mu Qing. But her eyes widened at the sight of Zhao Anan. Third Brother, Anan is here. Let me talk with her!
Zhao Anan answered instantly, Sure, Xin! I am just on the way to visit a patient, how about youe with us?
Zhao Anan linked one hand through Mu Xins and the other through Shangguan Nings fingers and started to walk out. Zhao Anan said to Jing Yichen, Brother, I just washed myself thoroughly. I am absolutely clean. I will never bring infection to my sister-inw and nephew!
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. Alright, Anan, dont tease him. He only says this because he is worried. Lets go!
Zhao Anan stillined loudly, but she noticed that Jing Yichen was not following them. She said in a good mood, Ning, you favor my cousin too much. Honestly, you have forgotten me.
Shangguan Ning said proudly, Of course, he is my husband! I dont mind putting him above you when you also have someone to love you.
Zhao Anan got both annoyed and amused. She was about to pinch her when she remembered that she was pregnant. She mocked her and said, Okay, okay, now you have an amulet so you want to end this friendship with me? I will wait to take my revenge once the baby is out of your stomach.
Shangguan Ning massaged her belly and smiled. Yeah, I have a protective amulet. There is nothing that you can do about it.
Chapter 369 - Apology or War (Part One)
Chapter 369: Apology or War (Part One)
Mu Xinughed alongside seeing them being so cheerful. Anan, Shangguan, I have something else to deal with at the hospital so I cant stay longer today. Thank you for rescuing me from my Third Brother. Come to visit me when you have time. I need to be off now.
Zhao Anan knew her to be a workaholic. She spent most of her time at the hospital and it was impossible to make her do anything apart from work. She said with a smile, Alright, I know you are thinking about your patients. It is lucky for them to have a doctor like you. Off you go now!
Shangguan Ning nodded at her and waved her goodbye.
After Mu Xin left, Zhao Anan asked quietly, Everything fine with my nephew? Really you have got one? Not twins?
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. I am 100% certain that you have only got one nephew or niece. The baby is developing well, turning from a pea into a peanut!
Zhao Anan hadnt cared when she was pregnant back then. But now when Shangguan Ning was pregnant, she took care of her as if she were a priceless treasure. She who tended to be careless, was trying to hold Shangguan Ning with her arms, fearing that she would fall or something.
Seeing her behave in this manner, Shangguan Ning was really surprised.
Oh, Anan, dont spoil me so much. I am fine. Treat me normally please.
Zhao Anan red at her. No way! You are the top protected animal and I am not protecting you, but my nephew!
Shangguan Ning had no choice but to shake her head in agreement.
Later, she said emotionally, Sigh, now I know why my cousin wants to guard you all the time. Even I want to keep you guarded, because you are so precious. I wish that I could guard you twenty-four hours, otherwise I might not feel assured.
Shangguan Ning said softly with a smile, You care about me, so you want to look after me. Your cousin is even more serious about thia than you!
See, I told you that my cousin is a perfect man, didnt I? When I told you about him being perfect, youughed at me. What about now? You must admit to me that my cousin is the perfect one in the entire world!
Shangguan Ning also burst intoughter when she thought of how Zhao Anan had presented Jing Yichen back then. Yes, yes, yes, Lady Zhao. I was too short-sighted and had assumed that you were simply brainwashed by your cousin. I didnt know that there could be such a perfect man in the world like your cousin. Forgive me, alright?
Zhao Anan tried hard to keep herself fromughing as she snapped. Okay, I forgive you. I had sold you with 100,000 yuan as the pocket money at that time, anyway!
What?
Shangguan Nings eyes widened. She pinched Zhao Anans cheek. Zhao Anan, you spilled the truth, finally! So thats why you were so enthusiastic to set me up on a blind date because you wanted to sell me for money. Was I only worth 100,000 yuan? I always regarded you as a good person but now it seems that you are cruel! I am going to take the revenge now by selling you out too. I will only charge only 0.1 yuan, no more and no less.
Zhao Anan regretted the slip of tongue tongue. She said instantly, Aha, Ning, it is a misunderstanding. You are my best friend. How could I ever sell you? I wouldnt have sold you to anyone however much money I was given.
Alright, stop exining! Exnation only make you look guiltier. Now you are simply trying to cover up the facts. Shangguan Ning was still pinching her face so when they came to Zhu Ruotongs ward, her face had two red fingerprints.
You have too much force! Zhao Anan massaged her face and yelled in pain, Good that I have a real face, otherwise it would have been broken by you!
Shangguan Ning ignored her, knocked at the door and entered the ward.
Zhao Anan entered following her behind.
Zhu Ruotong was lying down on the bed with a pale face. Her face had blood stains and arms were wrapped with gauze.
She withdrew a bit at the sight of them.
It seemed that Zhao Anan had left a deep impression upon her. She might not want to approach Zhao Anan again in the future, because she was an unpredictable and a scary woman.
What are you doing here?
Zhu Ruotong sounded hoarse. But she still looked intimidating, even though she had wounds all over her body and couldnt move.
Shangguan Ning came to stand in front of her bedside and said sincerely, Ms. Zhu, we are here to offer an apology. Anan has always been a disobedient girl and it is her fault that you are injured. I apologize to you on her behalf. I hope you will forgive her. We will pay for your medical fees.
Zhu Ruotong didnt ept the apology. She said with coldness. It is a crime that Zhao Anan beat me up. I am a policewoman and I can take her back to the office whenever I want. No matter what the cause is, the truth is that she beat me up. Do you think that an apology would work? Just wait and see, I will take action when I am cured!
Shangguan Ning was dismayed after hearing what she said.
It was definitely Zhao Anans fault. Shangguan Ning had no arguments to offer in this situation.
But Zhao Anan walked up and held Zhu Ruotongs neck as she spoke fiercely, Ha, so you think too much of your status as a policewoman? I will strangle you to death at this very minute. Put me in handcuffs in you can. Beat me if you can!
Shangguan Ning got so helpless at the sight of her acting so impulsively.
She went up and took hold of Zhao Anan. Let go of her, Anan, no messing around!
Zhao Anan did not want to release her. But she was afraid of hurting Shangguan Ning, so she had to release Zhu Ruotong. She walked away and sat down in the chair kept near the bed.
Then she said bluntly, Okay, I will put everything in a straightforward manner. Dont ever dream about marrying Zheng Jing. He is already reserved. You wont get him!
Zhu Ruotong who was almost out of breath because of Zhao Anans chokehold, coughed and inhaled deeply before replying.
She responded defiantly and said, Who will marry him if I dont? You? Or that weak sister of his?
Zhao Anan looked up all of a sudden. Stay away from him if you already know the truth!
Chapter 370 - Apology or War (Part Two)
Chapter 370: Apology or War (Part Two)
Shangguan Ning knew that Zhu Ruotong would have discovered Zheng Luns affection towards Zheng Jing.
If she could figure out the truth during just one meal, Zhu Ruotong, who was an excellent policewoman, would definitely have noticed something going on between them.
Zheng Lun had reacted strongly at the sight of Zhu Ruotong to have escaped the truth froming out.
But this made everything much easier.
Shangguan Ning stopped Zhao Anan from arguing with Zhu Ruotong any more. Instead, she said in a poised tone, Ms. Zhu, since you already know the truth, we are asking you to quit the game.
Zhu Ruotong, who was already pale, got even paler hearing what Shangguan Ning said. She said with clenched teeth, Why must I quit? It is impossible between Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing! You can turn to Zheng Jing if you want to. I will quit instantly if he says that he wants to marry his sister!
Shangguan Ning realised that she was not being reasonable. Zhu Ruotong didnt like Zheng Jing, nor did Zheng Jing like her. They were probably just friends. They were not together because they were in love.
If Zheng Jing and Zhu Ruotong had indeed been in love with each other, Shangguan Ning would not havee to talk Zhu Ruotong to give up. But she had discovered the truth.
Zhao Anan wanted to hit her hearing what Zhu Ruotong said.
Why not? You are the woman who ruins others rtionship. They would have gotten married without you being in the picture. You must quit. If you dont, I will break your legs and ruin your face. Lets see if Zheng Jing will still want you after that.
Zhu Ruotong sneered as sheid there without showing a sense of fear. Are you here to apologize or start a war? I have never feared anything after spending years as a policewoman. You can kill me now, or I will kill you when I am back on feet!
Alright then, I will kill you now to save us all from any trouble in the future.
Anan, stop it! Get back to your seat now! Shangguan Ning stopped her instantly seeing that Zhao Anan was getting aggressive again. She had hurt Zhu Ruotong badly and she mustnt touch her again, or someone would definitely die.
Ms. Zhu, we are here to apologize. Anan is an impulsive woman. You must have noticed that. But you are a rational and calm woman, so you dont need to mess with her. What I am here to tell you is that you mustnt get married half heartedly. You will only hurt yourself and others and you will definitely regret what happens in the future.
Zhu Ruotong didnt say anything after hearing what she said. She was a person who wouldnt bend against the strong but could be blown away by softness. She could be fiercer than others who showed fierceness. She had been born strong and couldnt do anything in a gentle way. But she tended to be soft-hearted when she was confronted with the gentle ones.
Also, Shangguan Ning said one thing right C she was getting married half heartedly.
A policeman had enough difficulty in finding a spouse, and it was worse for a policewoman. She had even more difficulty in finding a spouse who was not as good as she was.
She didnt dislike Zheng Jing and they were excellent partners and rivals. It was not a bad thing to marry someone like Zheng Jing.
Shangguan Ning showed a smile seeing that she had understood what Ning said.
She knew that Zhu Ruotong was a rational person.
I know you dont mind Zheng Jing not being in love with you. But do you not mind him loving someone else whilst getting married to you?
After hearing what she said, Zhu Ruotong looked up at her in surprise as if asking if Zheng Jing was in love with Zheng Lun?
Shangguan Ning nodded softly. Yes, what you are thinking is right. He likes his sister, but has tried to conceal the truth so well over the years that all of us have been tricked. We all thought that he just loved his sister as a brother, but the truth is that he loves her a bit too much. He is also a rational person and after he discovered his feelings, he tries to conceal them. But you never know when such a thing will break out in open someday.
Zhao Anan also turned to Shangguan Ning in astonishment. She realised that Shangguan Ning was so perceptive that she could analyze everything in a rational way. More so, even Zhu Ruotong was getting persuaded little by little. This was definitely a more... civilized way than her beating her up. Also, it seemed to be effective because Zhu Ruotongs mind was getting confused.
So Zheng Jing also liked Zheng Lun?
Then why did he take a girlfriend to his home? That made him an even bigger scumbag!
Zhao Anan got so annoyed that she really wanted to beat Zheng Jing up at this moment.
Ms. Zhu, you are an excellentdy who is worth a good mans care and love. I think that it would be best if you can wait for a bit longer, when the man perfect for you wille to you. Zheng Jing doesnt fit you. He is able to control his emotions today, but what about the future? Can you be sure that he will stay calm and rational like he is now?
Shangguan Ning didnt have a loud voice. She sounded gentle even when delivering such tough words.
Zhao Anan was also sitting calmly next to her. She didnt provoke Zhu Ruotong again.
Zhu Ruotong looked slightly astonished. Only now did she realize that Shangguan Ning was way more observant than she had expected.
She admitted that what Shangguan Ning had said, struck deep inside her heart and poked the hidden insecurity. She was a woman who was stronger than most men but also had the dream of being protected by someone.
But the reality was cruel. Most men seemed to be incapable and she ended up being someone who only trusted bullets and force rather than liking flowers and fragrance.
No one was able to protect her fully except for herself. She spent decades getting herself fully trained but had lost many things in the process.
Zhu Ruotong felt ayer of ice breaking slightly inside her heart. But the crack was not enough for her to pursue love at this moment. She was used to being rational and had lost the impulse of chasing what excited her.
She said calmly, Zheng Jing is more rational than you think him to be. Once we get married, he will not betray our marriage. He is a responsible man and that is what I like in him.
If he is really rational enough, Zheng Lun should have been married to someone else by now. But she is not. She doesnt even have a male friend. Why is that? Is it because those men are not a good match for her?
Shangguan Ning smiled. That is not the reason. Actually, it is because subconsciously, he doesnt want any other man to touch Zheng Lun.
Chapter 371 - Mu Qing’s Agony
Chapter 371: Mu Qings Agony
After they came out of Zhu Ruotongs ward, Zhao Anan whispered after ncing around and seeing no one closeby. Ning, Do you think that Zhu Ruotong will break up with Zheng Jing now? She looked like she had been swayed. Howe you have be so good at such talks? I think that I might need to kowtow to you and call you master!
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter and pinched her face. Then call me a Master first.
Zhao Anans face sank.
Shangguan Ning withdrew her hand and said softly. Zhu Ruotong will not give up Zheng Jing so easily. She is a rational person who will not give him up just because she epted what I said. She has never expected love from Zheng Jing and she doesnt care who Zheng Jing likes. But I dont think that she would want to see Zheng Jing still hung up on Zheng Lun after they get married.
So they dont like each other. Damn, I have done everything in vain. I shouldnt have beaten her up!
Shangguan Ning said with a smile, True. You beat her up without knowing the truth. Never do that again, okay? Force doesnt solve anything. You must learn from me. I use my brain! The current society needs a woman with a talent like mine. Violent people like you would never solve problems. You have hit Luns love and she will feel upset. You might even need to apologize to her!
Zhao Anan just couldnt stopughing. She pointed at her and said, Since when did you get so shameless, Shangguan Ning? My nephew will not turn out to be a good child if you continue to do so!
Sheughed and said, But honestly, Lun cried so hard that I wondered if she was feeling upset for the scumbag Zheng Jing or me as a justified sister. But whenever I saw her in tears, I couldnt do anything at all. I feel that she is the type whom all men like. She is gentle, fragile and even makes me want to protect her, let alone men! So it is normal that Zheng Jing likes her. If he doesnt, then he is not a man!
Zheng Lun was indeed a lovely girl, because she was innocent and gentle from inside as well. She had no malice and was kind-hearted and pure.
Zhao Anan said something right today C it was perfectly normal that Zheng Jing liked Zheng Lun.
Everyone would have been moved after spending so much time with Zheng Lun.
But Shangguan Ning admired Zheng Jing a lot. He was already in love with Zheng Lun and was still able to control himself. He even found a girlfriend just to make Zheng Lun give up on him. He had a strong willpower and was a justified man who would never break his morals because of his personal desire.
She said with a smile when she thought of this point. Anan, I am all for your n A, B, and C. Drug Zheng Jing as you wish. We need to be bad women for a bit for delivering Zheng Lun to Zheng Jing. If he doesnt take her, then it would not be our fault!
It would be Zheng Jings fault for being weak.
Zhao Anan hopped happily after hearing that Shangguan Ning had agreed to her n. Haha, I knew that you would support me. We must keep the secret to ourselves. If Zheng Jing marries Lun, all issues will be solved. Otherwise Lun would be forced to marry someone else.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan returned to Mu Qings office and talked happily along the way. Jing Yichen came to them the moment they entered the room.
He sized up Shangguan Ning from head to toe and let out a sigh of relief after noticing that nothing was wrong.
Shangguan Ning felt that her husband seemed way too nervous. She had just been away for only a few minutes and he was already worried about her.
Did he love her that much?
Shangguan Ning felt herself filled with happiness. She said softly as she looked at him, I am fine, so is the baby. Dont worry.
Jing Yichen showed a slight smile after hearing what she said. Okay.
Zhao Anan didnt notice the intimate behaviors behind this couple. Her attention was drawn towards Zheng Jing who was being treated by Mu Qing.
She cried out in surprise, Oh Zheng Jing, howe you got injured so badly?
Did she do all that?
His face was bruised and cheeks had swelled up. Some dried blood stains could be seen below the nose whilst Mu Qing had already stitched the wounds between his eyebrows. Apparently, he had sustained enough injuries. He had traces of bites on the ears and on his forearms. There were wounds everywhere. He looked horrible.
So the Captain of the Police force of A City, who was a terror for every criminal in the city, had been injured by a woman who could barely perform any martial arts.
Zheng Jing wouldpletely lose face if such a thing was known to others.
But Zhao Anan didnt feel a thing. She was still surprised that Zheng Jing could be so badly injured. She thought that she had hardly done anything.
When Zheng Jing caught sight of Zhao Anan, he suddenly realized that he wanted very much to beat this woman to death!
She was way too annoying!
Zhao Anan saw him giving her a dark look so she retreated to Mu Qings side and bellowed at him. What are you staring at? It is very weird to stare at me like this, okay!
Zheng Jing was already so annoyed by her. But Zhao Anan was a woman after all, his good friends woman. So he had to swallow down the anger and press down the annoyance.
At this moment, Mu Qing was helping Zheng Jing with the wounds whilst being tormented at the same time.
On one side, his woman had been fighting with Zheng Jing to such a degree that Zheng Jing had got deep wounds. Apparently, Zhao Anan must have been beating and kicking by clinging to Zheng Jing because of which they must have been sticking together. Zhao Anan had bitten Zheng Jings ears, neck, arms and shoulders!
Those wounds were so intimate that they infuriated him as a boyfriend!
How unlucky that he be the one to deal with these wounds. It was indeed a cruel torment!
Did this woman know anything at all?
If she didnt consider herself as a woman, she should at least consider Zheng Jing as a man. Did she ever think about her boyfriend?
Chapter 372 - Only Her in His Eyes
Chapter 372: Only Her in His Eyes
Mu Qing got so bothered that he even ignored Zhao Anans provoking behavior towards Zheng Jing.
At the same time, he found himself feeling guilty towards Zheng Jing.
Zhao Anan was a maniac who fought roughly and bit really hard. He knew about how sharp her teeth could be. It was really painful if she bit someone even once. Zheng Jing must have suffered a great deal being bitten by her on his ears and shoulders.
Zheng Jing would have retaliated but he held himself back just for Mu Qings sake. He could have beaten Zhao Anan with his one hand tied.
Mu Qing was also troubled by the way Zhao Anan had dealt with Zheng Jing so intimately. Irrespective, he apologized to his buddy with guilt written all over his face. Sorry brother! I have spoiled Anan too much. Please, forgive her. Just assume that you have been bitten by... a dog. Please let the matter go and dont be mad. I will treat you to a nice dinnerter to make up for it.
Zheng Jing was really irritated, but he calmed down after hearing his friends words. Besides, he wasnt worked up about what Anan had done to him. He was just annoyed by how Zhao Anan regarded him.
But before he could say anything, Zhao Anan got angry.
She jumped up, struck the table hard and screamed. What nonsense are you talking, Scumbag Mu? Who is the dog? You are the dog. I am still irritated.
Mu Qing shook his head and said helplessly, Just go home and take a rest. Stop messing around. You are an excellent fighter who has beaten the best policeman and policewoman in the entire city. I am scared of you, alright?
Zhao Anan became happy after hearing such words from Mu Qings mouth.
Now you know how gentle I have been towards you, right? Alright, I am toozy to fight with you guys. I am off to sleep.
She said and left proudly. Before she left, she showed a victory sign to Shangguan Ning.
Zheng Jing said to Mu Qing with a bitter smile, Honestly, Bro, how do you usually tolerate her? How are you still alive? You should have died long ago because of her torture.
Mu Qing pressed hard upon his wound which made Zheng Jing let out a cry of pain.
Then he nodded in satisfaction and said, See, it is important to be skilled in something. Do you think that I am as brainless as you are? I am a top-notch doctor who can deal with Zhao Anan without any problem.
Then can you teach me as well?
Mu Qing turned him down instantly. He said, I have cultivated this ability. How can I teach you something like this so easily? You wont be able to master something that I have been practicing for years. Do you think that two silver needles would make anyone obey you?
Actually, what he was thinking was that if Zheng Jing learnt how to handle Zhao Anan, he would bully her. He could tolerate Zheng Jing getting injured, but not Zhao Anan.
She was really born in the year of the dog. I have been bitten by her all over my body. Look at these injuries. Teach me something, or I might fight back next time she beats me up. At that time, you shouldnte to me to seek revenge.
Zheng Jing looked really hrious at this stage. He had wounds over his face and was covered in bandages on his ears and neck. He almost resembled a mummy.
He turned to Jing Yichen and said bitterly, Master Jing, can you keep an eye on your cousin? She listens to nobody but you!
Jing Yichen refused to oblige him. Why should he be involved with Zhao Anan and Zheng Jing?
Zhao Anan had caused a lot of trouble but she had been tamed by Mu Qing to some extent.
She had a thick skin and feared no pain. She could do taekwondo and usually didnt lose in any fight. Jing Yichen was not bothered about her well-being.
If Zheng Jing wanted to fight with her, so be it. His heart wouldnt ache for him. As for Zhao Anan, she deserved it.
Why was he telling everyone that he, a policeman was beaten up by an ordinary girl? It was a shameless thing for the police force of A City.
All Jing Yichen wanted was that the energic Zhao Anan should stay away from Shangguan Ning so that she wouldnt cause her any trouble.
Jing Yichen was upset that Zheng Jing couldnt solve his love problems because of which both Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan had to be involved.
His wife was pregnant and she needed to have a peaceful mind for herself and her babys well being.
Jing Yichen kept staring at his wife. He felt that Shangguan Ning had gotten even more beautiful after bing pregnant. Her skin was clear and rosy like unshelled eggs. She looked lovely.
Could it be because of Mu Wenshengs precious medicinal wine?
It seemed that the wine was indeed a wonderful thing. Jing Yichen decided not to drink any more and leave it all for Shangguan Ning. Her health was more important than his own.
He took hold of Shangguan Nings hands and said softly, Lets go home, Ning. It is too noisy here and you must be tired now. I will entertain you with funny jokes when we get home.
Shangguan Ning liked it when Jing Yichen pampered her in this way. Sheughed and said, Okay, lets go home!
Zheng Jing stared at the couple walking away hand in hand. It didnt seem that they even knew that he existed.
Zheng Jing was already used to being ignored by Jing Yichen. But what astonished him was that Jing Yichen could treat Shangguan Ning in such a gentle and spoiling way.
Bro, did I just see something weird or hear something wrong? Master Jing was simply too... different!
Zheng Jing had already realized the position of Shangguan Ning in Jing Yichens heart. He knew that Jing Yichen loved and cared about Shangguan Ning very much.
The man whom everyone feared in A City and who was so distant from everyone, a king of a business empire could one day be so gentle and indulgent towards a woman. He would even offer to tell her jokes!
Chapter 373 - The Maturity of a Man
Chapter 373: The Maturity of a Man
Was this the same Jing Yichen he knew?
Zheng Jing couldnt help but get shocked.
He had always thought that a man like Jing Yichen was surely going to die alone, because his world waspletely isted and he allowed no one to enter it. He had a strong willpower and didnt need anyone to keep himpany.
But it seemed that when Jing Yichen was with Shangguan Ning, he was the same as every other man who loved his wife. He talked with her gently, and pampered her.
They seemed to be in such a good rtionship that he felt jealous of them.
It seemed that Zheng Jing was going to be the one who would die alone!
Mu Qing understood how Zheng Jing was feeling. He had spent enough time with Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning and was already used to the crazy personality difference which Jing Yichen disyed while treating others and Shangguan Ning.
He directed all the coldness towards others whilst keeping the warmest side of himself to Shangguan Ning.
He said with a smile, Sure, Master Jing has changed. Someone is finally able to conquer him and he is extremely careful about her these days especially because she is pregnant. Master Jing was here to help her with the pregnancy examination. He didnt even want me to check her up, because a pregnant woman has to show her belly. That is why I had to ask my cousin to do the job. Otherwise Master Jing would have killed me!
Zheng Jing got slightly startled and said, Sister-inw is pregnant? So fast?
No wonder Jing Yichen had seemed rather careful about Shangguan Ning. They were going to have a baby.
It seemed that Jing Yichen was living a peaceful and happy life. He was going to start a family soon!
Zheng Jing let out a sigh inside the heart. He was not sure when he would be a father himself and who the childs mother would be.
He kept thinking about Zheng Lun, her gentle smile and her loving look.
Mu Qing didnt notice that his friend was lost in his own thoughts. He kept whining. ...Honestly, I am a doctor and it is totally natural for me to check the patients. They are all the same in my eyes. But he makes me sound as if I enjoy looking at a womans body. Let me tell you that I have no interest in anyone elses body apart from Anans. Look at you. You were fine with me touching your girlfriends ribs today, right?
Mu Qing suddenly stopped and asked. Oh yes, why did you have no reaction at all to me touching your girlfriends stomach?
Jing Yichen didnt like him touching Shangguan Ning and he himself hadnt liked Zheng Jings fight with Zhao Anan which ured in close proximity. But Zheng Jing didnt seem to care much about his girlfriend being touched.
Did that mean that he didnt treat Zhu Ruotong as his own woman?
Zheng Jing got startled after hearing what Mu Qing said. You just said that you are a doctor. How would you know if she is badly injured if you dont feel her body?
Then... what if I touch Zheng Luns belly?
Zheng Jing sprang up all of a sudden as he red. Dont you dare.
He was surprised at his own intense reaction.
Mu Qing shook his head as he looked at him with a smug expression. Oh, Policeman Zheng. You failed my little test. How did you manage to graduate from military school? Are you a qualified policeman after all?
Zheng Jing said in annoyance, You are testing me too?
Oh, Policeman Zheng, I am so sorry to have annoyed you. Who else has tested you before?
Mu Qing finished tending to his wounds and leaned against the chair, looking at Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing got both amused and annoyed. Who do you think you are? Sherlock Holmes? I am much more experienced than you in investigation, so dont try to test me anymore. I know what I am doing.
Mu Qing looked at him for a quiet moment and then said in a serious tone, Bro, listen to me carefully. Stick to what you want and dont mind what others may say. There are many things that can never be gained back after losing them once. Trust me, it is totally fine if brother and sister get married. There is no reason to give up on her even if she is your sister. Dont hesitate if you only like her. Hold her tightly and never let her go.
If he had been mature enough and persistent years back, he would not have been separated from Zhao Anan for ten years.
People tended to realise what was precious after they lost it. Mu Qing only understood his true feelings towards Zhao Anan after he lost her. His heart only existed for Zhao Anan and no one else.
He went away from Zhao Anan when she had the abortion. That was also the time when she started the deadly chemotherapy. But he was not by her side at the time.
Although Zhao Anan was the one who had made him leave, yet Mu Qing felt his heart ache so much, every time he thought of the past.
His Anan had gone through so much partly because of him. But he had not been by her side supporting her or giving her enough love.
When Zhao Anan got to know about Shangguan Nings pregnancy today, she couldnt hide both her joy and jealousy.
She had been pregnant before, but what had he given to her? Panic, helplessness, unease, pain!
He was not like Jing Yichen who took care of her every minute and loved her every second. Mu Qing hated himself for having done that and if he got a chance, he would treat Zhao Anan hundred times better. He would spoil her and never let her go away again.
He had imed that he knew about love more than Jing Yichen and that he was better at making girls happy. But as a matter of fact, Jing Yichen was way better than he was. He knew what he wanted and was never stingy at expressing his love. That was why he could experience such a great rtionship with Shangguan Ning and live such a happy life.
Mu Qing hoped that Zheng Jing could understand what he had said and learn from Jing Yichen as well.
It was ok to use force, drugs, traps or anything else to hold onto the one whom you loved. Zheng Jing shouldnt care about his dignity or what others might say about them at this moment.
Chapter 374 - Drunk
Chapter 374: Drunk
Zhu Ruotong had been hospitalized due to her injuries being serious.
But Zheng Jing only had a few bruises and didnt need to stay at the hospital. So he met Zhu Ruotong before driving home alone.
He still kept thinking of the profound words which Mu Qing had said to him C never let go of what you want!
He knew that Mu Qing had talked out of experience.
Zheng Jing knew about Mu Qing and Zhao Anan, so he took in what Mu Qing said with utmost seriousness.
But taking in was one thing whilst facing the reality was another.
He didnt know if he should take the risk of going against the morals and ignoring parents objection and sadness just to marry his own sister!
Was it all worth it?
To give up everything?
Mu Qing had said that he was hesitating because he hadnt tasted the feeling of loss and was weighing the options because he had never lost anything.
Was that the case?
His parents were out for business when Zheng Jing arrived at home. Mrs. Zheng was the one taking care of Family Zhengs properties. She didnt stay with Zheng Lun all the time.
It was still early and the servants were not yet at work. Zheng Lun was alone.
She was like an abandoned kitty who was nestled in the corner of the living room. She still had traces of tears on the face. Her feet were bare and she just had a thin dress on her.
Zheng Jings heart palpitated.
He thought of the year when he had met Zheng Lun for the first time.
It was freezing on that day as the snow had not yet melted. There was almost no one on the street.
The skinny girl was nestled in the corner. She was barefoot, freezing to death.
She was filthy from head to toe. Her face was so full of dust that her original look was nowhere to be seen. Only her gaze was crystal clear.
She was like an angel fallen from heaven, sleepy and famished. But she didnt want to bend down to beg the passers-by. She was apparently very scared when he stood next to her.
But what she said was a soft whisper. Brother, I am so hungry...
Despite the dirt on her face, it was clear that she was extremely beautiful.
She looked so much like his sister who had passed away!
She even sounded like his sister!
His sister had once said to him with her hands over her arms. Brother, I am hungry!
At that moment, his world copsed. What he could see was the little girl nestled in the corner.
He rushed down to hold her and kept calling her sister and Lun, making her scream out of fright.
He thought that his sister was back. He thought that he had gained what he had lost.
But soon he realized that the girl inside his arms was different from his own sister.
She was scared, agonized and lonely. She had wounds all over her body and not enough food in her stomach.
She was not spoiled nor lively nor did she resemble a princess.
She probably was two years younger than his sister, so skinny that she was almost weightless.
At that time, he made up his mind to bring her home and have her stay by his side so that he could protect her and make her stay away from all injuries.
Zheng Jing stood in the living room thinking about the past. He was engulfed in pain.
Mu Qing was wrong. He had experienced a huge loss!
Little Seven was not Zheng Lun. She was not his sister who was long gone from his world.
What he was trying to do was to make her stay by his side. He was afraid of losing her. He was afraid that any mistakes made by him would have everyone me Seven.
But Seven was already lost. She had fallen for him and there was nothing that he could do about it.
Zheng Jingpletely lost the ability of distinguishing between the two figures from different times.
He dashed towards Zheng Lun in panic and took her into his arms. One of his arms was around her fragile waist whilst the other upon her foot.
He felt the coldness on his palm, just like decades ago when he had held her foot for the first time.
His Seven must have been frozen to death.
Seven...
Zheng Jing mumbled. His voice sounded hoarse. His heart ached and his love spun out of control.
Zheng Lun held herself back for a second but soon rxed in her brothers arms.
She liked it when brother held her in his arms. In fact he had never held her in such a way before.
The coldness disappeared within one second, so did the sadness. She called out to him, You are back, Brother...
But before she could finish the sentence, her lips were sealed.
Zheng Jing nted a fierce kiss upon her lips which were really close to his face.
He opened her mouth with his lips and sought her inexperienced tongue, savouring the wonders which he had never tasted before.
The moment seemed as long as a light year and as short as a second when they started to kiss. First, he was gentle, then fierce, and then violent. He had lost his self-control because Zheng Lun was kissing him back.
Seven, I have wanted to kiss you for too long for me to even know when I first started to like you!
I know pretty well who you are and I dont have any brotherly feelings towards you. I love you. My heart beats only for you.
But I dont want to lose you so I dont dare to admit what I feel. I dont want others to gossip about you. I dont want you to go to hell with me. I want you to live a beautiful life rather than a life of darkness and shame.
I want to be your sunshine. I dont want others to talk about you wanting to marry your own brother.
I can tolerate everything but I cant tolerate it when anyone says anything bad about you.
I can give up everything, including my future and my happiness.
As long as you are happy, all is worth it!
Zheng Luns eyes widened. She received her brothers kiss as if she were in a dream.
Her brother had just kissed her.
Did he like her too?
Was he afraid that she would disappear? Was that why he was holding her so tightly in his arms?
A tear trickled down the corner of her lips. Zheng Lun closed her eyes and let herself be at the mercy of her brother. She felt secure in his warm arms and kissed him back in a naive, clumsy way.
Her heart was beating so fast that it felt as if it would pop out of her chest.
As her brothers handsome leaned close to hers and his nose shed with the tip of her nose, she felt drunk on happiness, floating in the air.
Chapter 375 - I Can’t Love You
Chapter 375: I Cant Love You
Zheng Jing didnt stop kissing her for a long time.
Their breaths mingled with each other and so did their heart beats.
He picked up Zheng Lun and went upstairs. He carried her into the bedroom and ced her on the bed.
Their eyes looked into each other and Zheng Lun started to blush. Yet she still mustered up her courage and looked directly into Zheng Jings eyes. She was panting and her fingers were trembling.
Zheng Jings heart ached as he stared at the woman whom he had been in love with for so long.
Zheng Lun, however, felt like she was floating in happiness. It had taken her just a kiss to understand how her brother felt.
But her heart hurt looking at the wounds on Zheng Jings face and body.
His face had bruises and the gauze had fallen off his ears, showing Zhao Anans teeth marks. His arms were also full of scratches and bruises.
Although he had wounds on the face, he still looked so handsome. His silhouette, the tall nose bridge as well as the sharp eyebrows made Zheng Lun feel heated.
She moved her fingers on his bronze face and asked softly, Brother, does it still hurt?
She didnt ask him anything about the kiss or the reason for it. As long as Zheng Jing was willing to kiss her, she was happy.
She didnt want to know the reason rather, she was scared to ask for it.
She was just very happy that her brother was within her reach.
Although she had no experience with kisses, yet she felt that Zheng Jing had just offered her, his first kiss.
He had been so impulsive that he kissed her without any restraints. He had even bitten her lips out of passion. He was not like the steady and firm Zheng Jing of everyday.
In her eyes, her brother was always steady and gentle. He had never been so out of control and passionate like this ever before.
As her soft hands moved over Zheng Jings face, he trembled.
He covered the little hand with hisrge hand. Then he closed his eyes and tried to capture her softness.
After a long while, he opened his eyes, took Zheng Luns hand and ced it on his lips and kissed it reverently.
No, it doesnt hurt, Seven, my heart does...
Zheng Lun immediately covered his mouth and shook her head softly. Brother, dont say anything. I am very happy to be in this situation. I wont ask for much, I only hope that I can see you and stay close to you.
Zheng Jing moved her hand away. His eyes were full of intensity. That impulse had broken his self control which he had held onto for so long.
He lowered his head and held Zheng Luns face with his palms. Then he kissed her again.
His kiss was violent. It felt as if he had been waiting for too long to get her into his arms.
Zheng Lun closed her eyes and let her tongue tangle with his. She kissed him back as best as she could.
After a bit, she slipped her hand through Zheng Jingss waist almost subconsciously, making him stiffen.
Zheng Jing stopped. But a secondter, he kissed her again when he caught sight of her beautiful lips.
They had kissed so many times that Zheng Luns lips were already swelling up. Finally, he stopped unwillingly.
He took Zheng Luns hands and ced them on his chest, making her feel his throbbing heart.
He looked into her beautiful eyes and said hoarsely, Seven, you are my sister and I am your brother. We will always be that. I cant love you in this manner.
I am afraid that my love for you will end up being a tragedy. I am also afraid that this love wont be able to stand the cruel knife of gossip.
Zheng Lu knew what he meant.
If they were ever together, everyone would talk trash about them. They were siblings in everyone elses eyes and even those who knew her true identity, regarded her as part of Family Zheng. It was impossible if a sister married her brother.
Seven, I cant marry you...
Zheng Jing used all of his strength when he said these words. He looked agonized.
But I promise that I will never marry anyone else as well. I will stay by your side. If one day, you meet someone you love, you can live your own life. If you dont, I will stay by your side until we get old together, okay?
A touch of joy shed across Zheng Luns look. So her brother was not going to marry anyone? He was going to spend the entire life with her?
So what if they couldnt get married? She had never expected that they would, never.
She had never thought about marrying anyone else. She was also selfish enough to want her brother not marrying anyone else, either.
If they couldnt be a couple, then she could just stay by his side until they got old. As long as they could stay together, it would be fine.
But Zheng Lun immediately felt guilty after that thought.
Had she just ruined her brothers chances of getting married ever?
He was the only son of Family Zheng and their mother was looking forward to seeing a grandchild since a long time. There would not be a child if he never got married.
Tears trickled down her cheek once again. Despite the pain in her heart, she still said firmly, No, brother, you must get married. ept Zhu Ruotong! She is a good girl, I know! I will not get jealous easily in the future! I am your sister and you are my brother. No one will rece you in my heart ever.
Zheng Jing got startled. He had never expected that his sister had grown up so much within such a short period of time. She was tormented in her heart so much that she hade up with such a decision.
He kissed her forehead and said in a low voice, Yes, no one will rece me. I am yours, and yours only...
Zheng Jing didnt contradict her statement about marrying Zhu Ruotong.
He had made up his mind that he was not going to marry anyone else apart from Zheng Lun.
Zheng Lun was the only one in his heart.
He had thought that marrying someone else would make Zheng Lun give him up. But what he discovered was that if he really married someone else, Zheng Lun would lose both her heart and life.
She loved him deep to the bone. What happened in the past few days made Zheng Jing understand that she would wither without him. She might even die.
He didnt want anyone to touch Zheng Lun. Zheng Lun didnt want any woman to touch him either!
What Mu Qing had said made him realize the truth.
He didnt want to torment himself any more. Nor did he want to torment Zheng Lun. If they couldnt be a couple, they would just be siblings!
Chapter 376 - You Are Siblings!
Chapter 376: You Are Siblings!
Maybe because they had said what was hidden inside their heart that Zheng Lun was in a good mood.
A smile hovered over her face. Brother, carry me to wash my face. Also, I am so hungry, I want to eat something.
Zheng Jings heart ached for some reason.
His sister was so silly. She had be so happy just by hearing that he was not going to marry anyone. She had never dreamt about marrying him. She had such low expectations from life.
Seeing that he brought Zhu Ruotong home, she cried for days. She had not eaten anything during that time.
Okay, lets wash up and eat something.
Zheng Jing carried her to the bathroom, wetted the towel proficiently and wiped her face. He had done these kinds of things for her so many times since they were little. But he had not done such a thing after they became adults because he was worried that too much closeness would make Zheng Lun get even more attached.
But he had nothing to fear at the moment.
Zheng Lun allowed her brother to wipe her face in a happy mood. Her brother knew about her love but she hadnt known about his. He seemed to love her more than she did. That was why she was so cheerful at this moment.
Her dream had been realized. She was already satisfied.
She knew that marrying her brother was impossible, because that would make her parents get extremely furious and upset. They had brought her up and treated her like their own daughter. She couldnt hurt them.
After they finished cleaning her up, Zheng Jing made a bowl of noodles with mushroom and beef. Zheng Jings heart was content after he saw her finishing the bowl of noodles so quickly.
After Zheng Lun finished the noodles, she wiped off her swollen lips which made her think of the passionate kiss from her brother a few moments ago. She flushed.
Zheng Jing dropped a kiss on her forehead seeing her blush.
Right at that moment, the sound of footsteps came from the living room.
Then something dropped.
They looked towards the direction of the sound.
Mrs. Zheng looked at her children in astonishment. She had just brought home the mango steens which her daughter liked. The fruits had scattered all over the ground but she didnt realise it.
She pointed at them with trembling fingers, her voice was full of agony and despair. You... you... are trying to kill me? You are brother and sister! My son and my daughter, how can you....
She couldnt continue.
She was full of hurt and difort.
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun stared at her in panic as they started to shout. It is not what you think, mom!
Mrs. Zheng knew her children well. She was sensitive and she could figure out what her children were doing judging from how they behaved. They were going towards a direction that she didnt want to see them in.
She went pale and couldnt stand on her feet.
Zheng Lun rushed to her side and held her by the waist as she cried, Mom, dont scare me. Nothing is going on between brother and me. It is my fault. I am way too spoiled. It has nothing to do with brother. Punish me, mom!
Mrs. Zheng had tears trickling down alongside her cheeks. She couldnt stand still and copsed. Zheng Lun couldnt hold her and kneeled down in front of her mother and kept calling her mom with arms around her.
Mrs. Zhengs heart broke by Zheng Luns voice. She took hold of Zheng Lun and said in tears, Seven, you are my daughter. You are not a recement to anyone. You are my daughter!
She barely addressed Zheng Lun as Seven, because that would remind them of Zheng Luns identity and hurt them.
But the reason why she called her in that way was because she wanted Zheng Lun to know that she didnt regard her as a substitute for her dead daughter. She had always known that her daughter was gone and she brought up Seven as her own daughter!
Both of you are my children and I have never regarded you as an outsider. Seven, what you did is something I cant ept. I cant ept if my daughter marries my son. I brought you up because I want you to get married and have children. I want your children to call me as grandmother. It is impossible... between you and your brother! You are ying me!
Mrs. Zheng just couldnt help it and started to cry. How could she watch her children being together?
That would be totally against morals.
Zheng Lun threw herself into her mothers arms and cried. I am sorry, mom, please dont get upset. I will never do that again. My brother will always be my brother. I am your daughter, and I will always be!
Zheng Jing came to the two most important women in his life and said softly, Mom, dont worry. I know what it is going on between myself and Lun. We will always be your children for the rest of our lives and that will never change.
Mrs. Zheng had tears all over her face. But she extended her hands to wipe off her daughters tears. Okay, I trust you! Lun, I love you so much. You mustnt let me down!
Zheng Lun nodded vigorously. I will never let you down, mom!
Zheng Jing went up to help her mother and sister up. He felt terrible to have seen his mother in this state.
Mrs. Zheng went back to the room after the episode.
Zheng Jing picked up the mango steens from the floor and ced them onto the table. Then he turned around and saw Zheng Lun standing there. He went and took hold of her little hands as he said with a low voice, Lun, dont worry. I am here.
Brother, am I upsetting mom? Zheng Lun looked so confused and guilty that Zheng Lun felt his heart ache.
He patted his sisters hair and said seriously, No, you are always moms pride. You have always been a good student in the ss, in the piano and painting. You have held exhibitions and you have sold your works at a high price. Mom is so happy that she brags about you everywhere, saying that you are a fabulous painter. She is so proud of you!
Silly girl, you havent done anything wrong. It is not your fault to like me. it is my fault for being too good-looking.
Zheng Lun looked up and let out a sigh of relief inside the heart at the sight of his teasing behavior. You are so shameless, Brother!
Having said the words, she sat down back to the sofa and started to peel open the fresh mango steens as she mumbled. I will peel some for mother. I need to pamper mom after making mistakes...
Chapter 377 - Protection
Chapter 377: Protection
After the pregnancy examination, Jing Yichen drove Shangguan Ning home.
He held Shangguan Nings hands tightly all the way home as if she would go missing any minute.
As they came home, Shangguan Ning leaned against Jing Yichens shoulders and listened to him telling jokes in a low and sexy voice.
The son came home in panic. Dad, I scored zero in todays test.
Father was very annoyed. Dont call me dad next time you fail the test!
The following day, the son came back again. Sorry, brother!
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter after hearing him telling the joke with a straight face. I dont think our son will get a chance to call you brother, dont worry!
Jing Yichen smiled too. Oh yes, although you are not as smart, yet our son will get really smart even if he inherits only half of my brain!
Shangguan Ning reached out and pinched his cheek.
Jing Yichen cried out in pain purposefully and then said, I will tell you another.
The son sent an e-mail to his father. Dad, Berlin is a very nice ce. Everyone is friendly here, but I feel a bit ashamed to go to school, because everyone else takes subway here whilst I am driving a top ss Mercedes-Benz.
Father replied. I have just transferred 200 million USD to you. Dont make me lose my face, go and buy a subway!
Shangguan Ningughed so hard after she understood the joke.
This was indeed a reflection of Jing Yichen. He might do the exact same thing as a wealthy and vulgar father when he had a son in the future.
Jing Yichen continued to tell some more jokes about father and son, making Shangguan Ningugh until tears ran down her eyes. She threw herself into Jing Yichens arms. Where did you get all of these father and son jokes? They are hrious.
Jing Yichen massaged Shangguan Nings belly softly and said with a smile on his face, I keep reading such jokes these days. They are very funny, so I wanted to share them with you.
He felt that it would definitely be a very happy matter if he got a son in the future.
He wouldnt be cold to his son like his father was.
He would be strict when it was necessary for him to be. But he was also going to get close to his child. He was going to give his son a happy and unforgettable childhood.
Of course, the most important thing was to keep Shangguan Ning safe. He must have aplete home.
Jing Yichen felt himselfpletely satiated with a loving wife besides him and a child on the way. At the same time, he started to feel burdened with even more responsibility. He was going to be a father soon.
Speaking of father, Jing Yichen suddenly thought of one thing.
He kissed Shangguan Nings cheeks and said with a smile, Hang on.
He went to the study but came back quickly. Taking Shangguan Ning into his arms, he handed over something to her. Dad has given this for you, a little present for your hard work!
Shangguan Ning took it and found that it was a car key. It turned out to be a key for a Volkswagen.
She got a bit startled. That was not what Jing Zhongxiu would normally do. He would not have given her an ordinary Volkswagen.
Sure enough, Jing Yichen said with a smile, It looks like a Volkswagen, and thebel says that it is a Volkswagen, but it is not. It is a tailor-made vehicle for you which provides the highest security system. The ss is bullet-proof, and the wheels dont explode. The car itself is fire and water proof and there are guns and other weapons avable. It is like a small tank.
Shangguan Ning got shocked C wasnt it too much?
I dont think that I need such a high-end car. Father is being too nice to me.
True. Dad favors you more. I am his son but he ignores mepletely. He has given you all the best things. Jing Yichen sounded sour, but looked cheerful. I have always wanted to rece your Audi, but you never approved of my idea. Good that dad has given you a Volkswagen. Drive it, so that I can feel assured.
Shangguan Ning got excited and extracted herself out of Jing Yichens arms. Where is my little tank? Let me try it!
Jing Yichenughed and then took her to the underground parking lot.
The car did look like an ordinary Volkswagen, but the differences could be noticed after one sat down inside.
Jing Yichen taught her how to use various functions of the car. Since the car was tailor-made for Shangguan Ning, she found that everything was easy to use. The only thing that she had not seen before were the guns and theuncher.
Jing Yichen exined everything to her and then said calmly, That is just for your security. Dad is worried that you might not bepletely safe when you drive out alone.
The truth was that the situation hadnt been stable recently, otherwise Jing Yichen would not have taught Shangguan Ning how to use guns in such a serious way.
He couldnt be by Shangguan Nings side every second. And even if he was, there would still be unpredictable danger. She would be much safer with such protection.
If Family Jings enemies could kill Shen Linbing, then they could aim for Shangguan Ning as well. Although her being pregnant was confidential, yet there were always enough spies around. As long as Jing Yiran knew that she was pregnant, then the men behind him would know too.
Jing Yichen thought that it was the best present Jing Zhongxiu could have given her.
But Jing Yichen didnt show any of these worries to her. He looked poised and sounded gentle and indulgent.
Nothing may happen after all. He didnt want Shangguan Ning to get worried unnecessarily. What she needed right now was to stay happy and healthy.
He would try his best to deal with the potential dangers and handle Jing Yiran.
Shangguan Ning had not noticed that Jing Yichen was preupied. She was just focused on learning all the maneuvers.
She didnt know how to use a gun, but there must be a reason why Jing Yichen was teaching her so intently.
Which husband would teach his wife how to use a gun when she was pregnant?
There must be something going on. But she was smart enough not to ask. She believed that Jing Yichen would try his best to keep her and the child safe.
Shangguan Ning had noticed that in the past few days Jing Yichen had enhanced the security around them.
The guards at thepounds gate had been reced by Jing Yichens men. Now there were more security people following her when she was out. Some were by her side rather than keeping an eye out for her from a distance.
Even the seaside where they took a walk during the evenings now was cleared out before they stepped out there. No one else could be seen in the area at that time.
Chapter 378 - trategy
Chapter 378: Strategy
Isnt this too much, Yichen? You are just being paranoid. I am only one-month pregnant. I cant possibly always remain like this in the future, right?
Jing Yichen held her hands tightly as he said with a smile, Dont worry, I will remove all those dangerous people before you give birth to our child.
The sea breeze felt cool and moist.
Jing Yichen took off his overcoat and covered Shangguan Nings shoulders and took her back home.
You and I are going to parents for the first time. Of course I am worried about you. I wish I could stay by your side 24 hours.
When he said these words, he looked quite calm. But his grip tightened on her arms.
But I have to be out tomorrow and the day after. I wont be around. You can go anywhere you want, but take enough men with you. Dont worry me.
Shangguan Ning nodded. It felt good to be protected. I will take good care of myself and our child. Dont worry.
After they came home, Jing Yichen slipped out of bed quietly after Shangguan Ning fell asleep. He went straight to the study.
Tiger was already waiting for him there.
Jing Yichen asked calmly as he sat in the wooden chair. Got the man?
Tigers face sunk. Master, they have people inside. They cause chaos whenever we spot anyone suspicious. Also, they are very cautious. We have also discovered that they are strangers, not locals from A City. They look like spies, otherwise they would not have been following from far in the distance.
Jing Yichen frowned and said after a while, Ask Lu toe here right now. She must be by Nings side when I am not around.
Tiger nodded his head. After a moment of hesitation, he said again, Master, ifdy is alone, they might be tempted. What about...
Before he finished his words, Jing Yichen cut him off instantly, Nonsense! I will not let Ning be the bait. Let me not hear any more of these foolish ideas which involve Ning.
He turned serious and cold instantly.
Tiger sweated as he said in shame, I am sorry! I shouldnt have thought of this stupid idea. Ladys safety is the most important thing of all.
Jing Yichen would never allow Shangguan Ning to do anything risky. He would rather take out those culprits slowly.
What about Tang Yun? Who is she hanging with recently?
She has been in close touch with Second Master. She has been with Ji Bo too. She gets paid by Second Master after you cut off the economic supply to her. Our men were following her discreetly but she spotted us. She looks unarmed but is more cautious than we thought.
Jing Yichen nodded. Continue to monitor her. She cant be someone from A City. Ask Zheng Jing for help. He might have some clues.
Only Zheng Jing knew what happened ten years ago. He had investigated Tang Yun back then.
Tang Yun was getting more and more confusing. Her past had been erased thoroughly and she seemed to be someone who had popped out of nowhere, totally untraceable.
That was abnormal. It would have required people with enormous power and experience to have done that kind of a job.
Who on earth was Tang Yun?
Jing Yichen was just thinking when he asked about something else. What about Shangguan Rouxue?
Shangguan Rouxue has given birth to a baby boy. We have revealed the new address of Xie Zhuojuns home to her as per your instructions. She will visit Family Xie in the following two days. Xie Zhuojun doesnt know that she is still alive, so he already got engaged with ady from another family in A City. Also, our sources have shown that Xie Zhuojun is not cured yet. He has not stepped outside since he returned home because he still gets a headache and cant go out alone.
At the hospital, apart from the brain scan, there was a check up done on his sperm count. His body temperature is rtively high and as he gets older, he would have more difficulty to father babies. That is why Family Xie has gotten him engaged again so soon.
Jing Yichen nodded and then said coldly, Make Family Xie go bankrupt now. Let them take as much debt as possible before that and make sure they dont die too easily. They must taste the suffering along with Shangguan Rouxue.
He was going to take revenge for Shangguan Ning!
Shangguan Ning had a soft heart, so she didnt want to do anything further to these people. But he was not like that. He was a fierce man who did things without showing any mercy.
Tell Shangguan Rouxue that Xie Zhuojun is engaged. She will create a mess and will not allow Family Xie to have a peaceful day!
That was what Tiger was thinking too. After hearing what Jing Yichen said, he showed a co-conspirators smile.
He told Jing Yichen about a few more things that had been happening during the past few days. Some of them were about the conflicts within different families of Family A whilst some were about the corporate conflicts, such as those in Jingsheng, Liyu Science and Technology, Family Mus Hospital and the Family Zhaos Jewelry which Jing Yichen had just taken over.
He gave another important information about Family Jis Enterprise.
Master, Ji Bos shares have increased by 10% during the past three days, now he has got 33% shares in total. His fiance Lan Yu is the one behind this.
Lan Yu barely goes out. She is only served by an old servant. No one else is able to approach her. She lives with Ji Bo and calls him every day, just like any normal couple. But nothing has happened between her and Ji Bo. They are like total strangers. I have checked that she is not from Family yang, but she...
No, Tiger. Jing Yichen cut Tiger off and said in a low voice, She must be from Family Yang.
Tiger got startled, but he decided to trust his master.
Master had never made a mistake. If he was positive about her then it must be true, although it was not known how he reached that conclusion.
Lan Yu looked extremely peculiar anyway.
Killing her was the best option. They had killed numerous people and Lan Yu was just going to be one of them.
Jing Yichen was not sure if Lan Yu was from Family Yang, but his instinct told him that she was. That was why he didnt want Lan Yu to live on, either.
But Lan Yu was Ji Bos fiance, at least in name, and if Family Jis prospective daughter-inw died, then a war would start between Family Jing and Family Ji.
Chapter 379 - The Bait
Chapter 379: The Bait
It was not an easy thing to get 10% shares of Family Jis Enterprise.
Apart from Family Jing, the old Family Yang was the only one that was possibly capable of achieving this task.
Lan Yu must have been holding the ownership to all the properties of Family Yang.
No wonder Ji Bo chose to get engaged with her. She was a moving gold tank.
Dont do anything impulsive now. We mustnt start a war with Family Ji without sufficient information. It is not worth just for the sake of Lan Yu.
Jing Yichen sounded cold yet poised. Family Jing could kill Family Ji but Family Jing would also end up sacrificing a lot in the process and there would be endless potential danger in the near future just as how it was with Family Yang. Although Family Yang was overturned within a few days, there were still some who were not dead. It was impossible to kill everyone belonging to a family. There was always someone who got away and created trouble.
Every family had its way of staying safe. Family Yang also would have had a way.
Family Ji and Family Yang were different. Family Yang mostly focused upon malls and a little upon governmental office, thus being less influential. That was why Family Jing hadnt made too many efforts to destroy their roots.
Family Jing was different. They had nted deep base in governmental office and if their roots were harmed, the governmental office would fall into a total mess. Family Ji had some power in military forces as well, so Family Jing could not start a war with Family Ji that easily.
The reason why the confrontation between these two families continued was because if a war started, both the families would be badly injured. Small issues in daily life did not hurt because these problems would not lead to extinction of any family.
Therefore, as long as Family Ji was smart, they would not irritate Family Jing easily, otherwise they would have to meet their death eventually.
I will talk with Ji Bo tomorrow. Set a date with him. Just tell him that I would like to discuss the financial business with him. The ce will be the tea house where we metst time.
Master... Tiger stopped.
He understood that Jing Yichen was using himself as bait to lead Lan Yu out. As long as Lan Yu was goaded toe out there, there would not be any problem if Family Jing touched her. In that case, Family Ji could not protect her either, because that was the unwritten rules between the two families. That was why when Ji Lili hurt Shangguan Ning, Family Ji had no choice but to hand over the money and send Ji Lili abroad without giving her the permission of returning to A City.
But it was too dangerous for Master to be the bait.
Lan Yu was a mysterious and cruel woman. What if Master fell in the trap?
Jing Yichen said calmly, Dont worry, I know what it is going on. You cane with me. She is just a woman. If I cant even take such a small risk, then what is the point of living to the present day. It has been peaceful for too long and a storm should be on the way. Call Ji Bo and set the date!
Tiger said no more. He answered courteously.
He believed in Masters ability and strength. Lan Yu was just a woman and she couldnt possibly be a match against Master no matter how smart and evil she was.
Ji Bo was in Family Jis therapy house which boasted of greatndscape when Tiger called him.
The therapy house was located in the outskirts. It was widely spread and well decorated. It was equipped with the top-notch medical team and was a ce for the wealthy families of A City to recuperate in.
This was where Ji Minjue was staying.
Ji Bo was here to pressurise Ji Minjue tonight, when both Ji Jiameng and Ji Ling were around too.
Ji Bo had a soft smile on his face but that was only to make him look gentle. He had an elegant temperament and seemed like an ordinary child talking to his senior.
But his words werent that of a child.
Uncle, you dont need to engage into any deal with Family Ji any more. You should rest since you are sick. More importantly, you need to give up your position as the president, otherwise Family Ji would die because of you. Give the position to me and I will make thepany grow. Jiameng and Ji Ling can continue to be involved with the family business. I will not interfere in their work. But they will have no right to interfere with my decision as well. I will be the only master of the Family!
Ji Minjue got so annoyed that his face turned purple. He pointed at Ji Bo as if he wanted to poke him to death. You bastard, now you dare to force me to give up the position. Since when did you get so bold? Do you still remember who you are? Family Jis Enterprise is mine. I am the master, I am the president, you are nothing.
Ji Bo didnt get annoyed after hearing his words. He still looked like a gentleman. No one could irritate him apart from Ji Yichen.
No need to get angry, Uncle. Give Family Jis Enterprise to me. It is the best option that you have. If you dont step down yourself, then I will hold a shareholder meeting to fire you. We need a new president.
Ji Minjue got really irritated to see that his once obedient nephew had turned into a wolf. His words shocked Ji Minjue.
Ji Jiameng and Ji Ling next to him also stared at Ji Bo in astonishment. He looked like a total stranger.
It felt as if Ji Bo was bing more and more like Jing Yichen. Was he trying to be as cruel as him?
Ji Ling snorted. You are way too conceited, Ji Bo. You need to possess the ability as Jing Yichen if you want to imitate him. You are simply looking funny right now. Are you an idiot to suggest removing my father from his position? We have 50% of the shares all together and even if you take the other 50%, father will still have his position as long as we dont let go!
Ji Bo looked even more cheerful. He said inposure, Oh really? Then lets see what is going to happen. It might be a bit too shameful for Uncle if he is fired by his nephew, right? I had wanted Uncle to keep face, but if you dont want it, then I have no reason to be polite.
Ji Bo greeted Ji Minjue and left.
He went back to the vi located in the city. It was already two a.m when he reached there.
It was dark in the vi, and a silhouette was standing by the ceiling-to-floor window against the moonlight. She was like a ghost who was ready to swallow peoples souls.
Ji Bo turned on the light and walked towards the silhouette.
He was starting to get more and more scared of Lan Yu who had turned out to be even more cruel than he had imagined.
But he needed her to be this way!
Ji Bo came to her side and said softly, Will you join me for the meeting with Jing Yichen tomorrow?
Lan Yu turned around. She had exquisitely beautiful features but her face didnt have any color. She looked like a sick person and her expression was evil that gave a glimpse into her horrifying heart. He is trying to bait me. I must go and give him a surprise!
Chapter 380 - So You Fancy Me?
Chapter 380: So You Fancy Me?
The following day, Ji Bo and Lan Yu reached the teahouse before time. This was the same ce where they had held negotiations with Jing Yichen earlier.
Lan Yu barely went outdoors, and even if she did step out, she would choose a dark night. She seemed to be in a good mood to be able to drink tea during the daytime today.
However, when Jing Yichen arrived, her smile stiffened.
Yet she was a smart girl who instantlyposed her expressions.
Jing Yichen nced at her and then introduced the men beside him to Ji Bo, calmly.
Family Ji, this is Mu Qing, our newly-promoted manager of finance department. Here is my assistant Zheng Jing. And you know who Tiger is.
After the introduction, Jing Yichen sat down. Mu Qing and Zheng Jing stretched out their hands to shake hands with Ji Bo. Since Jing Yichen disliked being touched by anyone, he refused to shake hands with anyone.
Ji Bo shook hands with a terrible look on his face when he saw the two people reaching out to him.
Lan Yu, the partner and the fiance of Ji Bo, also stood up and shook hands with both of them.
Mu Qing didnt release her hands. Instead, he said in a flirty way, Oh, Miss, why do I think that I know you from somewhere? Have we met before?
Lan Yus face changed. Soon she turned to Ji Bo like a fragiledy. Tears twinkled in her eyes, making her look pitiful. She looked as if showing to Ji Bo that someone was bullying her.
Ji Bo couldnt resist getting angry. He got annoyed every time he met Jing Yichen. It wasnt a pleasant feeling.
Watch out Mu Qing. She is my fiance! You cant mess around here, this is not your hospital.
Mu Qing pursed his lips and released the hands unwillingly as he mumbled. So stingy. I just thought that your fiance looked like one of my old friends. What is wrong in shaking hands? I am not in love with her. I have a fiance myself!
Ji Bo got so annoyed that the veins popped on his forehead. He stood with a straight back and bellowed as he looked at Jing Yichen. Give me a reasonable exnation, Master Jing! You are here to discuss a confidential coboration. Why have you brought these two outsiders alongwith? He is a doctor and that one is a policeman. Are you looking down on Family Jis Enterprise?
Ji Bo had met Mu Qing many times. When his aunt Ji Minyu was suffering from a heart-ache, she had received the treatment at Family Mus hospital. Although Mu Qing was not the doctor in charge, yet he was the director who had taken a look at the former mayor at that time. Therefore, Ji Bo knew Mu Qing well.
As for Zheng Jing, Ji Bo and he had been ssmates in elementary school all the way to the high school. When Ji Lili was sent to the prison by Jing Yichen, Zheng Jing was in charge of Ji Lilis case. Ji Bo had bailed Ji Lili out through Zheng Jin as well.
Of course they knew each other!
Jing Yichen did this on purpose.
He was not here for negotiation. He was here to start a war. He had made so many preparations just to cancel the contract which Ji Minjue signed with Jing Yichen a while back but it seemed that Jing Yichen had tricked him again.
A simr thing happened with Star Mediast year. When they were all prepared to get the payment from Jingsheng, Jing Yichen rejected the offer in the end. Later, negative news about the actors of Star Media were everywhere in the public because of which the stock price dropped tremendously and thepany was bought at a very low price by Jingsheng!
Right now, Ji Bo felt themanding look of a person with a higher calibre, and became extremely angry.
Apparently, Ji Bo was angry because Mu Qing and Zheng Jing were not the financial elites of Jing Yichens team rather than due to the rudeness which Mu Qing had shown towards his fiance.
Jing Yichen still had no expression on his face as if he had expected all of this to happen.
Both Mu Qing and Zheng Jing burst intoughter at the same time.
Jing Yichen was truly evil. Ji Bo had been tricked by him with no way out of the situation.
It was not a business coboration meeting. He was just trying to test Ji Bos reaction towards Lan Yu. The fact was that he didnt care about Lan Yu but about his ownpany and interest.
Jing Yichen had already set the trap. He was waiting for Ji Bo and Lan Yu to fall into it. Jing Yichen was the one who had written those lines for Mu Qing.
Actually, Mu Qing didnt know Lan Yu. He didnt find her familiar either.
Jing Yichen looked nonchnt facing Ji Bos irritating interrogation. Seems that you know them, then everything is much easier. So will be the negotiation.
Ji Bo got so annoyed that he started to tremble. But he had nowhere to vent the anger.
Master Jing, you dont seem to be sincere about our coboration!
Jing Yichen threw a look at him and said coldly, President Ji, you better introduce your partner. You know everyone from my side, but I dont know yours. It is not as per the rules.
What did he mean by rules?
Did he follow rules when he brought a doctor and a policeman as well as a strong bodyguard when he was here for a high-end negotiation? Jing Yichen must be the only one who had a bodyguard with him when he was at a coboration meeting. He even had a doctor with him today. What a joke! He was definitely distinguished, wasnt he?
Ji Bo had ignored the most essential matter and was so busy caring about who Mu Qing was.
Jing Yichen definitely had his own purpose in bringing Mu Qing and Zheng Jing here. But making Ji Bo irritated was definitely a good side-effect.
Master Jing, this is my fiance. You both metst time! Ji Bo sounded unfriendly. He was no longer the gentle Mr. Ji in front of Jing Yichen.
Without changing his face, Jing Yichen said coldly, I have met way too many people and I dont remember ordinary faces. Also, my colleagues have never met her before. You say that I have brought someone unrted but what I see is that, it is you who has brought someone unrted. We are talking about a confidential deal. Give me a reason that she isnt a spy!
Before Ji Bo managed to say anything, Lan Yu smiled and said, Master Jing, you seem quite interested in me. Have you changed your taste and started to like me, instead?
Chapter 381 - A Distraction
Chapter 381: A Distraction
Lan Yus voice was quite hoarse as if it had been treated with sandpaper, rough and horrible.
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing got startled by her voice. A simr thought emerged in their brain at the same time: an angel with a demons voice!
Lan Yu had put on makeup today but her pale face couldnt be covered by the cosmetics.
Mu Qing felt that if she removed her makeup, she would resemble a fierce ghost.
She sat there quietly and gave out the air of ady from a family. But all was ruined the moment she talked.
No wonder she spoke less. Even when she was taken advantage of Mu Qing, she had turned to Ji Bo in a mute appeal.
Jing Yichen had no reaction towards Lan Yus horrible voice and showed no emotions when she spoke to him. He behaved as if she had not been addressing him. Instead, he looked at Ji Bo coldly, meaning that he should exin Lan Yus identity to him.
He ignored Lan Yu and apparently, he didnt think that she was good enough to talk to him.
After being irritated for a few seconds, Ji Bo turned to Mu Qing and Zheng Jing. This is my fiance, Lan Yu. She is here because she will be involved with the financial side of Family Jis Enterprise in the future.
Mu Qing was dressed in a formal suit. The white shirt was tailor made and the ck suit was hand stitched. He had worn a light grey tie with a diamond pincer. His hair had been pushed back in thetest style.
Mu Qing looked elegant and sunny. He didnt look like a director of a hospital but an extremely good-looking superstar.
Lan Yu stared at him, enchanted by his looks.
Mu Qing got a bit surprised. He directed his wonderful smile towards her, one that he had been practicing for more than ten years just to impress girls. It worked on all women aged from eight to eighty, apart from Zhao Anan.
Of course, even Zhao Anan, the tomboy was fascinated by his smile, except that Mu Qing didnt know about it.
Lan Yu who had been calm till now, panicked at the sight of his smile. She flushed a little.
Mu Qing was very satisfied by how she reacted.
Apparently, not every woman liked Jing Yichen.
He was cold and so far away from the world. He was not suitable to live with. Only Shangguan Ning was gentle enough to tolerate him, all the other women would be frozen to death by his personality.
Mu Qing got extremely happy when the perfect Jing Yichen was put in shade by his presence.
He took hold of Lan Yus hands on the table again and said with a bright smile, Ms. Lan, I am so lucky to have met you today. Where do you live? I am free today and can give you a lift home. If you dont want to go home, we can have dinner somewhere. What do you think?
Lan Yu, blushed when Mu Qing shook her hands. Her bashfulness almost pissed Ji Bo off.
Ji Bo moved Mu Qings hands away roughly and bellowed, What are you thinking, Mu Qing? Lan Yu is my fiance and you have your own. How dare you flirt with her?
Ji Bo felt that today must be his unlucky day, when he had to be yed around by Jing Yichen and then even by Mu Qing. Was Zheng Jing going to toy with him too?
Mu Qing dared to start an affair with his fiance right in front of him?
Although Lan Yu and he were not a real couple, yet she was Ji Bos fiance publicly. Anyone who wanted to have an affair with her should do that when he was not around.
Mu Qing didnt sound apologetic when he said, Ah? Oh I am sorry, what I mean is that Ms. Lan seems sick and I cant help feeling sorry for her. I dont want to rob you of your woman, I have way too many women chasing after me already. It is not easy for you to get a woman after so many years, anyway.
He really didnt want to touch Lan Yu, honestly. That woman didnt give him a good feeling. She looked fierce and evil. She creeped him out.
But the mission Jing Yichen had given him was to get close with this woman, so he had to do whatever it took. What he could do was to wash his hands hundreds of times or sterilize them to get them clean,ter.
Ji Bo was so pissed with Mu Qings attitude.
Good that Lan Yu was not his real fiance, otherwise he would not be able to get out of the teahouse and die out of anger because of those men.
Mu Qing felt satisfied at the sight of the irritated Ji Bo. He continued to act ording to Jing Yichens instructions. Yu, you are not from A City, are you? I have met all the beautiful girls from A City, but I cant seem to locate you even in the deepest corner of my memory. I couldnt possibly have forgotten you, if I had once met such a gentle and pretty girl.
Jing Yichen had not written such erotic lines for him. Mu Qing was doing this spontaneously. The original line was no more than a single sentence You are not from A City, are you?even Yu had not been included.
A few secondster, Lan Yu turned normal.
Her face was pale and her lips looked bloodless as well. Her eyes were dark and hollow, full of coldness. She was like a famished wolf in the wildness that wanted to swallow everyone present.
She became cautious because of what Mu Qing said. But she had alreadye up with an answer to this kind of interrogation. She feared nothing.
Lan Yu said with a hoarse voice as she stared at Mu Qing, I am from A City, living in the outskirts. Family Lan is just a small family and it is quite normal that you hadnt met me till now.
Mu Qing truly wanted to clean up his ears after hearing her voice. Listening to her was a kind of torment.
But he had no choice but to lead her on.
Lan is not amon family name. What does your family do? How did you get to know a wealthy master of Ji Bo? You have aplished so much already.
My family is into wholesale of smallmodities. I got to know my fianc unexpectedly, just as I got to know you.
That didnt sound right. She sounded as if she held a deep affection for Mu Qing.
Chapter 382 - Lan Yu Is Dead
Chapter 382: Lan Yu Is Dead
The words startled Mu Qing. He shouted inside his heart, I would rather not have known you ever in my life!
At this moment, Jing Yichen spilled out one word. Check!
Zheng Jing immediately scooped out the cellphone from his pocket, typed in his police code and started to search for Lan Yus personal information. After a minute, he looked up. Master Jing, Lan Yu exists, and the family information caters to what she says except for one thing.
Everyone turned to him in astonishment, waiting for him to say thest words.
Zheng Jing threw a nce at Lan Yu seriously and said in a low voice, Lan Yu of Family Lan is already dead.
Everyone including Lan Yu got startled. Then the others turned to Lan Yu and felt a shiver go up their spine.
If Lan Yu was dead, then who was this woman sitting in front of them?
Only now did Ji Bo understand why Jing Yichen had brought Zheng Jing along.
Jing Yichen was here for Lan Yu. What Lan Yu saidst night about Jing Yichen trying to bait her, was real.
Jing Yichen was capable and powerful. It was normal that he suspected Lan Yus identity.
But how did Lan Yu know that Jing Yichen was trying to lead her out by using himself as the bait?
Ji Bo had calmed down by this moment. He found that it was ridiculous of him to have got irritated a moment ago. He was not the centre of attention on this asion.
However, did it mean that Lan Yus identity was going to be revealed soon? Hadnt she said confidently that her identity was well concealed and that she had disguised herself well by handling everything perfectly?
Lan Yu got surprised for a short moment. Her pale skin was her best disguise. Even if she paled due to fright, it was almost impossible to notice that.
But yes, the real Lan Yu was already dead, killed by her.
But, she was the only one who knew about it.
Zheng Jing couldnt have possibly known that.
Lan Yu soon realized that Zheng Jing was trying to trick her.
She looked up at Zheng Jing and said with a confused expression, You must have made a mistake. Am I not here, well and fine? My family can be the evidence. You must have got the wrong person!
Well, Ms. Lan can follow me to the station to prove herself. A DNA test will be avable for you. Zheng Jing was wearing an expression of justice. When he spoke in such a solemn way, anyone with no firm ground would have been scared.
Why should I follow you to the police station? You can arrest me when you have proof. Also, dont trouble my parents, they are ordinary people running a small business. Your appearance would frighten them.
Zheng Jing stopped talking. He turned to Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen stood up and looked at Ji Bo and said in a cold voice, Thats all for today. I hope you will not destroy Family Ji.
Having said the words, he strode away with Mu Qing, Zheng Jing and Tiger following behind. The four men were dressed in well fitted suits, looking extremely attractive.
As the four handsome men of different personalities walked out, the waitresses of the teahouse wearing long cheongsams smiled at them enthusiastically.
Unfortunately, apart from Mu Qing who waved back at them happily, the other three wore cold expressions, especially the one leading them.
After they walked out of the teahouse and got into Jing Yichens car, Tiger drove them back to Jing Yichens vi.
Master Jing, Lan Yus pulse feels well. She seems fine except for being a bit weak. When I took hold of her hand, her pulse pumped fast. But she was mostly calm. When Zheng Jing imed that she was supposed to be dead, her breath was steady as well.
Jing Yichen showed a rare smile. No, the weirdest thing about her is that when you touched her, her heart almost popped out.
Ah, why? Mu Qing was confused. It is normal that she flushes and has a violent heart-beat when such a handsome boy like me touches her!
Can Master Ji, one of the most popr bachelors in A City, look worse than you?
Ji Bo and Mu Qing were actually equally good looking. The only difference was that they had different personalities. Ji Bo was tall and muscr, gentle and friendly, and more mature than Mu Qing.
Mu Qing thought for a moment before he continued. Maybe I am Lan Yus type? I am sunny and happy, much more attractive than Ji Bo!
Jing Yichen said softly, You are right. You are her type. You have been her type for years. Why? Because you are sunny and outgoing whilst she is dark and evil. You are the man she desires.
Ahaha, I knew it! She surely... hang on, what did you say? I have been her type for years?
Mu Qing got confused. He gave his tie a pull and asked in astonishment, But I met her for the first time today. Howe she has been interested in me for years?
Jing Yichen leaned himself backwards upon the ck leather chair as he said coldly, No, it is your second time to have met her today. You met her for the first time at Yangs.
Both Mu Qing and Zheng Jing burst out in surprise. She is from Family Yang?
I wasnt so sure until today. She is from Family Yang, a direct heir who has all the power of Family Yang.
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing were kind of confused to have been asked to attend the meeting today. But they trusted Jing Yichenpletely and did whatever he asked them to do, wordlessly.
It was not until they came to the site when they found Lan Yu behaving a bit weird. Mu Qing and Zheng Jing both possessed sharper senses than the ordinary beings and hence had realised that something was amiss about her.
But they got really surprised to hear Jing Yichen affirming that Lan Yu was from Family Yang!
Family Yang had been destructed overnight because of their murder attempt upon Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning. But apparently, she had escaped from there.
And this escapee didnt seem like a simple person. She was not only physically strong but also possessed numerous twisted ideas. She was now Ji Bos fiance and with Family Ji as the background, Family Jing couldnt possibly touch her without a proper reason.
Chapter 383 - Yang Muyan
Chapter 383: Yang Muyan
Mu Qing paled as he said through clenched teeth, Master Jing, she cant be....
Jing Yichen nodded. Yes, she is.
Mu Qing suddenly started to rub his hands against his suit as if they were infected with something filthy. Zheng Jing was quite confused by both their behaviors.
What are you two talking about? Who is Lan Yu? I am so confused! Zheng Jing held Mu Qings arms as he watched Mu Qing rubbing off his hands crazily.
Mu Qing said pitifully in despair, Bro, I have beenpletely tricked by Master Jing. I have just been touched by that hideous woman. She took advantage of me. Oh my innocence has been ruined.
Zheng Jing was speechless. He released his arms and snorted. Lan Yus voice is terrible, but she looks decent. Howe she is hideous? Also, you touched her first and took advantage of her. Now you are saying that you are the disadvantaged party. Anyways, tell me, who on earth is Lan Yu?
Jing Yichens cold voice said, Her name is Yang Muyan.
Zheng Jing turned his head in astonishment. Yang Muyan? You mean the weirdo of Family Yang? But isnt Yang Muyan very...
He threw a look at Mu Qing and said, Very hideous? I heard that she was madly in love with Mu Qing and wanted to marry no one but him. The entire A City knew that!
If she wanted to marry an ordinary man then it was still ok. But Mu Qing was the director of a top-notch hospital in A City, was outgoing, and good-looking as well. He had way too many girls courting him.
The problem was that Yang Muyan desperately wanted to marry Mu Qing, even offering half of Family Yangs properties as dowry. But Mu Qing turned her down because he found her to be too ugly.
No one knew the exact worth of half of Family Yangs properties. But Family Yang was the third wealthiest family of A City and earned billions of yuan each year from their family enterprise. It was said that the majority of the ie was earned by Yang Muyan.
Yang Muyan had been an intellectual girl who was deeply adored by Lady Yang. But she barely showed up at any asions and few people in the city had met her, including Zheng Jing.
But there had been many rumors going around about her. One of the most important one was that she was way too hideous!
Mu Qing had made up his mind to marry her so that he could take the truckload of dowry for investing in his hospital.
But he had told Zheng Jing many times that he wouldnt be able to ept that his wife was an ugly person.
Therefore, he retreated as many times as he made up his mind. Eventually, Jing Yichen invested Family Mus Hospital so that the hospital could go on functioning smoothly.
Are you sure? Zheng Jing still couldnt believe it. Lan Yu sounds horrible, like 100 crows singing together. But she looks good, not ugly at all!
Mu Qing also asked. Master Jing, are you sure? I have met Yang Muyan. Honestly, she was so ugly that it gave me nightmares for several days in a row. Also, the voice is different. Her voice was quite nice if I remember correctly.
Although he asked him the question, he knew pretty well that Jing Yichen was not the kind to make a mistake. If he said that Lan Yu was really Yang Muyan, then she was for sure.
Jing Yichen said calmly, I am sure. Yang Muyan must have killed the real Lan Yu. The Lan Yu we met fits Yang Muyans profile. She is smart, intelligent, fragile and weak. Her voice has changed because of the fire at Family Yang. As for the look, Mu Qing, try to remember what she was like when you met her for the first time.
Since it was important, Mu Qing thought carefully before replying. When I saw her for the first time, her face was totally swelled up. She had pustules all over her, which were likerge sized e. I think that she must have got them because of a serious endocrine dyscrasia, or maybe because she had tried too many products on herself.
When you saw her back then, she was in an abnormal condition. What we saw today might be how she normally looks. She didnt go out because of her appearance, so no one knows much about her. Even if Mu Qing had met her before, he couldnt possibly have recognized her straight away. Hence it has been easy for her to disguise herself.
Jing Yichens thoughts got more and more clear. He had suspected Lan Yus identity right from the beginning.
No one apart from Yang Muyan would be able to get 10% shares of Family Jis Enterprise for Ji Bo. Yang Muyan must have already been in charge of her dowry before the fire, which must be a tremendouslyrge amount of money.
She must have been practicing a lot to be such an evil woman. Her appearance is what people talk about. I bet that she must have turned into the woman Mu Qing met, when she was just a teenager. That was why she barely went out. But she has always been fond of Mu Qing and that is why I asked Mu Qing to join us today C to test her.
Both Mu Qing and Zheng Jing were reminded of how Lan Yu had reacted when she had seen him. Lan Yu had never been fond of her fianc Ji Bo but showed a sharp emotional response towards Mu Qing. Apparently, Jing Yichen was right.
You said that Yang Muyan became what she looked like because of too many external products. But I disagree. I think that someone from Family Yang poisoned her to make her look like this, someone who hated her but stayed close to her. Yang Muyan is now back to normal because she is away from that person after Family Yang was destroyed.
Having heard him analyzing the situation, Zheng Jingughed bitterly. Honestly, Master Jing, if you ever think of bing a police officer, maybe me and my team would be jobless!
Jing Yichen could connect seemingly unrted things together and catch all the small details. He was a born policeman!
Zheng Jing knew that Jing Yichen was capable of everything except for medical skills, which were far less than those of Mu Qing. As for everything else, Jing Zhongxiu had already made him an exceedingly excellent man.
Jing Yichen didnt take what Zheng Jing said, seriously. He was sure about Yang Muyans identity now and suspected that Yang Muyan would make the next move very soon. She was going to marry Ji Bo if she wanted to stay safe.
Chapter 384 - Crisis (Part One)
Chapter 384: Crisis (Part One)
Ji Bo and Lan Yu were the only two people left in the fragrant and quiet teahouse.
Seeing those four leaving the ce, Lan Yu said in her hoarse voice, Ji Bo, lets get married.
Ji Bos hands shook making the exquisite porcin teacup fall on the ground, and shatter into pieces.
What are you talking about? Get married? Are you mad? We had an agreement that we will only got engaged, nothing more.
He would be crazy to marry an evil woman like Lan Yu!
Hearing her voice every day was already a huge torment. Would he want to look into the evil eyes for the rest of his life?
She looked normal but somehow she made people around her ufortable.
She was like a ghost climbing out of the grave, sinister and dark.
Ji Bo would be driven mad if he got married to Lan Yu.
But Lan Yu didnt care about his attitude.
It didnt matter whether Ji Bo wanted to marry her or not. She didnt like him anyway. What mattered was that Ji Bo had to marry her.
Dont worry. It will be a fake marriage. We can get divorced within one year after the marriage. You can find any woman you want and no one would mind you being a divorcee because by that time you will be the richest, youngest and handsomest billionaire in A City, one whom all women would run after.
Also, I have given my dowry to you in the form of those 10% shares. Ji Bo, did you think that you would get my things for free? Dont you know that there is no such thing as a free lunch. You know how this principle works after being the master of an enterprise for so many years, right?
Ji Bo copsed on the wooden chair after hearing what she said.
He was beginning to feel that he might have made a grave mistake that was going to impact his entire life!
He was inferior to Jing Yichen in every single way and had lost to him numerous times. He might not have wanted to admit that but he was convinced by Jing Yichens ability and wealth, which was many times bigger than his. He had learnt from his mistakes and was not going to make the same ones twice.
However, now it seemed that he was going to be under a womans control which was way worse than losing to Jing Yichen. He felt humiliated!
So, this is the deal. I will pick an appropriate date for us. We can skip the engagement party and go to the wedding directly. You better not think of resisting it. I have already promised that we would be married at most for one year. If you dont do as I say, I swear that I will destroy you. Try if you dont believe me.
Also, if we get married, I will throw Ji Minjue out of the enterprise, instantly. You will be the President and there will be no one who would dare to talk back to you.
Ji Bo sat up straight again. He no longer looked distressed. Instead, he looked determined.
He was in Lan Yus boat no matter what now. In order for him to seed, Lan Yu had to seed.
Lan Yu chuckled at the sight of his fast changing mood.
But she forgot for a moment that she had lost the melodic voice she used to have. She sounded like a crow at the moment.
Startled by her creepy voice, Ji Bo tried to distract her. Didnt you say that you are going to give Jing Yichen a surprise? Where is it? I have received his!
Dont worry, I have already delivered the surprise. Not sure if Shangguan Ning has got it. Do you want me to kill Shangguan Nings child or her, as well?
Ji Bo got startled and said with his teeth tightly clenched together, Why do you get innocent people involved in your hatred towards Jing Yichen? She and the child have done nothing to you!
Lan Yu took a sip of the cold tea from the table and nced at Ji Bo, sinisterly. Innocent? I am the most innocent one. Are you concerned about your woman? That is not even your child, what are your feeling sorry for?
...
Shangguan Ning was sent back to their vi located in the outskirts by Jing Yichen. Zhao Anan was with them too.
Although Zhao Anan was very hyper, Jing Yichen got her here so that she could keep Shangguan Ningpany.
Lu was already waiting in the vi when they reached.
Lu was sporting pigtails today and was dressed in ck sportswear. She had a pair of ck shoes on but wore an expressionless face.
Shangguan Ning knew that Lu was abnormal again, rather, she was in her normal state. She was steady and introvert like any 26 year old girl.
Zhao Anan had not yet met Lu. She didnt visit Family Jing often and Lu was always on some mysterious mission. They had not met each other until that very moment.
Shangguan Ning introduced them. But she already believed that Lu would get along well with Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan greeted Lu enthusiastically but what she got back was a cold response from Lu. She was displeased and took Shangguan Ning back to the room.
Lu didnt enter the room. She grabbed the gun out of her sleeves, loaded it and started to petrol around the vi.
When God had taken something from her, she was given something else.
She was very sensitive towards danger. Usually, the more dangerous it got, the more capable she would get.
Her senses were tingling when she came to the vi today.
Shangguan Ning also got a bit uneasy when she saw Lu going out of the room in such a cautious manner.
But Jing Yichen told her that it waspletely safe here, much safer than atndscapepound, because it was a single vi and easier to protect. Landscape Compound was an open area where many other people lived.
Shangguan Ning tried to rx. Too much nervousness would affect the baby in her belly. She must ensure that her child was not affected in anyway.
Zhao Anan could always make herugh improving Shangguan Nings mood.
But everything changed when Shangguan Ning heard a piercing cry of paining from outside.
Chapter 385 - Crisis (Part Two)
Chapter 385: Crisis (Part Two)
That sound of crying creeped people out in broad daylight, just like the one from the wronged souls and ghosts.
Zhao Anan sprang up all of a sudden and bellowed, Who in the hell is making such a noise?
She was not scared of these things, but those cries would affect her unborn nephew.
The vis servant walked out of the kitchen and came to Shangguan Ning and said in terror, Both of you go inside. We will go and check it out.
Shangguan Ning nodded. We will be fine. You be careful.
Lu was out there. There should not be any problem.
Shangguan Ning was not scared, though she was a bit troubled.
She subconsciously massaged her belly and showed a touch of determination on her elegant face.
Baby, mom will protect you. We will wait for your father to return.
Suddenly, they could hear the sound of shots being fired outside the vi, and then the crying stopped.
Some timeter, silence dominated the vi.
Hearing the sound of running footsteps, Shangguan Ning dragged Zhao Anan and retreated to the living room. She had a feeling that Lu must have been the one who shot the bullets just now, but the footsteps didnt sound like Lu. She would not make any sound in such a situation.
Zhao Anan wanted to go out and take a look. But she gave up the idea at the sight of Shangguan Ning. She better stay by Shangguan Nings side to keep her safe no matter what happened outside.
What if it was a trap C when she left Shangguan Ning, she would fall into the trap. That was what happened on TV shows. Zhao Anan had always considered those people silly, so she followed Shangguan Ning without hesitation.
A long whileter, there came no sound in the vi as if time had stopped for a bit. There didnt seem to be anyone else in the vi apart from Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan.
Dont be scared, Ning. I will keep you and my nephew safe. I do not have too long to live. My existence will be worth the while if I can save you and the baby!
Shangguan Ning got extremely annoyed upon hearing Zhao Anans words. Shut up now! What nonsense are you talking? You are definitely going to live for a very long time. Both my baby and I are fine, we dont need your rescue. I dont want you talking nonsense. I wont let you jeopardise your life for mine. Do you hear me?
Shangguan Ning usually had a mild temperament. Zhao Anan got startled when she threw temper at her for the first time.
She knew that Shangguan Ning was annoyed by what she said about her short life-span. She was at the edge of tears when she said that.
Honestly, why did Shangguan Ning think more about her life than her own. She was so touched.
Then someone pped at the entrance of the living room followed by a womansughter. What a lovely pair of sisters!
Zhao Anan and Shangguan Ning turned their heads following the sound.
There were two women standing there, one gentle and beautiful, the other hot and sexy. They would have been lovely girls except both of them had terrible hearts. They were Shangguan Nings enemies.
Sister, long time no see. You almost killed me. Actually, I am a dead woman who is here to seek revenge.
Shangguan Ning looked with hatred in her eyes at the woman in a pink dress. What are you doing here, Shangguan Rongxue? Are you here to ask for your death?
Jing Yichen had told Shangguan Ning that Shangguan Rouxue was still alive. Shangguan Ning was not surprised at the sight of her. But she was not sure how Shangguan Rouxue had managed to enter the vi.
The vi was equipped with an rm system and there were many bodyguards on watch, including Lu. It was strange that Shangguan Rouxue coulde in so easily.
Then another sinister voice arose. I heard that you are pregnant, Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning looked at Tang Yun standing next to Shangguan Rouxue.
She was no longer wearing elegant clothes. Instead, she had put on smokey eye makeup with dark red color on the lips. She had a gold color wig on her head and was dressed in a tight top that showed half of her breasts. Her beautiful body could be seen clearly and the ck leather gloves and boots made her look like a hooligan from some gang.
Shangguan Ning looked at Tang Yun who was not staring at her but at Zhao Anan in fury. She had not forgotten what they had done to her back at the hospital.
Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun had shaved her head little by little so that she ended up getting almost no hair growth. Now a days, she couldnt meet anyone without wearing a wig. She was going to take revenge from Zhao Anan who had whipped her badly.
Zhao Anan red back at Tang Yun. She was never scared of getting into a fight. She would have killed her ages ago if Tang Yun had not saved her cousin once. She was a troublemaker.
Tang Yun stopped ring at Zhao Anan and moved her gaze back to Shangguan Ning. She stared at her belly as if trying to kill the baby inside with her look.
Shangguan Ning was the key target before she went to Zhao Anan.
She was not going to allow Shangguan Ning to give birth to the baby. Family Jing was not going to have any offspring.
Shangguan Ning looked at her calmly and said, Yes, I am pregnant with my husband, Jing Yichens child. Any questions?
Tang Yun was about to say something when Shangguan Ning interrupted her instantly. You better let your questions rot inside your stomach. My being pregnant has nothing to do with you. Do you have a death wish that you dared to break into my home? Or do you think I wont kill you just because you saved my husbands life? You are mistaken. I am not as kind hearted as you think.
She said as she scooped out a gun from the pocket of her sportswear and then aimed at Tang Yuns forehead in a professional way.
The rest of the women were startled. Shangguan Ning knew how to use a gun?
And she had a gun on her inside her own home!
It didnt make sense. This was not her style.
Zhao Anan burst intoughter after a moment of astonishment. Ning, you are truly the coolest woman I have ever known!
Chapter 386 - Crisis (Part Three)
Chapter 386: Crisis (Part Three)
Shangguan Ning was not as confident as Zhao Anan thought she was.
Her hands were sweating because she had never used a gun before. Jing Yichen had given her a gun just this morning. Although he had taught her how to use it and she looked rather confident while holding it, but she was actually very nervous. It seemed so easy to watch others take away ones life but she didnt realize how difficult it was to aim at someone, herself.
A life would disappear just because she pulled the trigger.
Jing Yichen had not wanted to give her the gun because the gun powder might be bad for the baby. But after a moment of hesitation, he had decided to go ahead and give it to her.
When he went to be the bait to lead Lan Yu out earlier today, Lan Yu could have used the opportunity to do something to Shangguan Ning. Therefore, apart from getting stronger security to keep Shangguan Ning safe, he had left this with her as an additional measure.
Shangguan Ning felt lucky to have not turned down this powerful weapon. At least with a gun in her hand, she and Zhao Anan would have a chance at survival.
Tang Yun might not know Shangguan Ning, but Shangguan Rouxue did. She had always been a kind hearted person since she was young. She had kept stray animals and had supported many poor children. She even donated money and goods to the orphanage every year.
Kill someone?
Honestly, if Shangguan Ning could kill, Shangguan Rouxue could fly!
She will not have the courage to pull the trigger.
Shangguan Rouxue walked a few steps forward and approached Shangguan Ning and said with a gentle smile, Sister, stop pretending. Your hands are trembling. Do you think you can fool me? If you really had the killers instinct you would not have tormented my mother until she was forced to kill herself. You just couldnt do it yourself.
Better back off now, Shangguan Rouxue, or I will shoot if you take one more step.
Shangguan Nings hands were trembling, but she was determined at the moment. She would not allow Shangguan Rouxue to approach her because an evil woman like Shangguan Rouxue would end up injuring her for sure.
She couldnt afford to get injured due to her pregnancy. She had a child in her womb and she was not going to take any risk.
Shangguan Rouxue ignored what she said. She walked ahead because she was sure that Shangguan Ning was never going to pull the trigger. She was a timid person and because of Huang Liyus suicide and her dying in front of her covered in blood, she was probably scared of blood post that.
But the next moment the gun firing could be heard in the room which was followed by Shangguan Rouxues shrill scream.
Bang!
Shangguan Ning pulled the trigger.
She had meant to scare Shangguan Rouxue by shooting the ground near her foot. But she was not good at aiming, so the bullet went through Shangguan Rouxues foot instead.
Shangguan Rouxue had underestimated Shangguan Ning. She couldnt recognise the person in front of her.
Ning used to avoid trouble because she didnt want others to badger her. She tolerated Shangguan Rouxue in the past because she didnt think of her as someone important. Her affection for Xie Zhuojun had been enough to upset her and hate them both, but she didnt find it worthy enough to fight against them throughout her entire life.
Shangguan Ning had been scared of blood because it used to remind her of mothers death. But as time went by, she was no longer scared. It was just a painful memory.
Shangguan Ning calmed down after pulling the trigger and hearing Shangguan Rouxues scream. She saw that blood was gushing out of her feet.
Shooting was not such a scary thing.
She was just feeling a bit guilty to have allowed her child to experience such violence when the baby was still in her belly. She was not a qualified mother.
Smoke arose out of the gun because of the bullet. But Shangguan Ning stayed calm.
Zhao Anan was much calmer than Shangguan Ning because she had used a gun in the past. She wanted to p seeing Shangguan Ning shooting Shangguan Rouxue down.
Hahaha, you are good at shooting, Ning! Seems that my cousin has taught you well. She thought that Shangguan Ning had meant to hit Shangguan Rouxue.
Hey, you senseless woman, how does it feel to be shot? My sister asked you to back off but you continued to disobey her. Well, congrattions, hope you be paralyzed after this.
Shangguan Rouxueid down on the floor. Her face was pale because of the pain and she had no energy to argue with Zhao Anan.
Tang Yun knew how cruel Shangguan Ning could get. She hadnt removed her foot however much she pierced her calf with nails thatst time at Family Jings.
Today, she realised again how ruthless this woman could be!
Had she known about the gun, they would have thrown the smoke bomb inside first beforeing in.
But the reason why she kept talking with Shangguan Ning was because she needed some more time.
Tang Yun raised her wrist to check the time and then mumbled, It should happen by now. Why is Shangguan Ning still fine?
Hearing what she said, Shangguan Ning got startled and her expression changed. Both of you get out of here or I will shoot again.
Shangguan Ning had sensed a strange fragrance the moment they entered the room. But she was too nervous to realise that the fragrance was not their perfume, but a smell that could cause miscarriage.
Tang Yun was here for a big mission, so she had got a gun as well.
Tang Yun pulled out a gun from behind andughed sinisterly. Shangguan Ning, Zhao Anan, you both are dead women, now. Honestly, you looked like a three year old while holding the gun.
Seeing Tang Yun bring the gun out, Shangguan Rouxue bellowed, Are you mental, Tang Yun? Why didnt you take it out earlier? Shoot her and take revenge for me.
Tang Yun ignored her. She didnt care that Shangguan Rouxue had got shot.
Chapter 387 - Cruelty
Chapter 387: Cruelty
She hated Shangguan Rouxue who was so pretentious. She wanted her to get shot as many times as possible.
Tang Yun aimed the gun at Shangguan Nings belly as she smiled cruelly, Shangguan Ning, I am not killing you now, but I want you to feel worse than death. My baby is gone and yours will be gone too. Only I can give birth to Jing Yichens child and you will never, ever be able to do that in your entire life. Hahaha!
Shangguan Ning felt that she was in the calmest state of mind. She was fearless and no longer sweated. She aimed at Tang Yuns head in concentration.
She had decided that if Tang Yun moved even a millimeter, she was definitely going to shoot her straight through the head.
No one could touch her child, no one!
The fragrance in the air was getting stronger and stronger, filling up the living room.
Shangguan Ning knew that if she breathed in this air for too long, her baby would be harmed even without Tang Yuns attack.
In the vis garden, there were men lying everywhere. There were at least 100 bodies there!
These men belonged to both Jing Yichen, and Tang Yuns camps.
The blood permeated over the ground, coating the grass. It was an oppressive silence all around.
A tiny silhouette was standing right in the middle of it. Opposite her was a sinisterly charming tall man.
Lu threw the empty gun and crouched down to pick up the gun of a dead man dressed in ck.
Jing Yiran stopped her by pressing the gun below his feet as he looked at Lu. He said coldly, You are not Lu. Tell me, who are you?
Lu threw a cold look at him and wanted to trip him when Jing Yiran tripped her instead and had her under his body.
Jing Yiran held her tightly and pinched her chin as he said fiercely, If you tell me the truth, I will strip you naked right here and make you my woman. It is so exciting to have sex on a pile of dead bodies.
Lu stared at him expressionlessly and said in a cold voice, We cant have sex when you are not even a man.
She sounded cold and emotionless, but her baby voice made her sound lovely. Her face was exquisite making the entire thing feel extremely weird.
Jing Yiran almost spat out blood. His face reddened. He wanted to die on the spot after hearing her words.
Damn Jing Yichen! Damn Mu Qing! Damn Lu!
When I get back to normalcy, I will have sex with you first. Dont you dare to ask me to stop when the timees.
But even if he didnt have the ability to make love, he still had some tricks up his sleeves.
Jing Yiran ripped off Lus overcoat furiously and kissed her straight on her lips.
He kissed her violently while stripping the clothes off her simultaneously. Soon, Lu had only underwear left on her body.
Lu stayed motionless and totally at his mercy as if she had lost her ability to resist.
Jing Yiran was startled at the sight of her naked body. He lost the desire of tormenting her.
Lu was in excellent shape. She was small in size but her legs were long and straight. Her waist was slender and her breasts were plump, and exquisite.
But different sized scars covered her white and smooth skin. Some of them were apparently the results of gun shooting and some were from knives.
How did you get so many wounds? For some reason, Jing Yiran got furious at the sight of the scars.
What has Family Jing done to you? You have been hurt enough times due to them.
Lu didnt feel ashamed when she was almost naked. She didnt try to conceal the scars on her either. She just said with her baby voice coldly, I dont have time for you today. Shangguan Ning is in danger. I must go inside now, sorry.
Having said the words, she gave a kick on Jing Yirans crotch and broke both his arms.
She moved Jing Yiran off her and found that her clothes had been torn into pieces.
Lu stripped off Jing Yirans shirt and put it on.
His shirt was like a dress for her.
She picked the guns from the ground, and checked them for bullets.
Before she left, she thought for a moment and then put the screaming Jing Yiran over her shoulder. She walked rapidly towards the vi with steady steps.
The confrontation was still on in the vi. Shangguan Ning was sweating terribly. Although she couldnt feel anything different in her stomach, yet she was nervous and worried.
She really wanted to shoot Tang Yun at this moment.
But she couldnt do that, because they were still in limbo, which would lead to wounds on both sides once the bnce was disturbed.
In the silent room, footsteps could be heard from outside.
The four women looked up and were startled.
Before Shangguan Ning realized what had happened, two loud sounds were heard. Lu shot urately bare legged while carrying half naked Jing Yiran over her shoulder.
She had aimed urately at Tang Yuns right hand which was holding the gun. The other bullet hit Shangguan Rouxues knee when she tried to throw herself on Shangguan Ning as soon as Lu had entered the room.
Screams arose in the room and the situation was overturned.
Lus presence startled Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan, but something surprised them even more.
Lu ignored the blood on the two bodies and carried the tall Jing Yiran on her shoulder whilst dragging Shangguan Rouxue with one hand and the other holding Tang Yun.
Jing Yiran was sober. But his arms hurt so much as if a knife was going through them. His crotch hurt even more and he suspected that he was now totally disabled. He got furious and fell to the ground after struggling on Lus shoulders.
Lu moved Shangguan Rouxue to her shoulders, then dragged Tang Yun by her cor and Jing Yiran by his belt, walking out like Hulk.
Chapter 388 - Heartbroken
Chapter 388: Heartbroken
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan stayed transfixed until Lu walked out of their eyesight.
She was so tiny but still had someone over her shoulder and two being dragged by her hands. The three peoples weight almost bogged her down, yet she was walking steadily.
A long whileter, Zhao Anan blinked and said in disbelief, Ning, where did my cousin get this weirdo? Good at guns, strong as the Hulk, but she looks so skinny and has no muscle. Did she grow up eating spinach?
Shangguan Ning came back to her senses and said with a smile, She seems to have grown up eating choctes. That is her favorite food. She barely eats anything else.
She had always known that Lu was extremely strong. She had seen her flipping the tall and muscr Jing Yiran on the ground. But how Lu showed up and left today was way too shocking. She was seeing her in a new light now.
Shangguan Ning realized that Lu in a normal status was much more lethal than Lu in her baby mood. The baby Lu seemed to be aware of her strength, but she would never have hit the target without even looking at the gun.
Even if Shangguan Ning knew very little about guns, yet she understood that Lu was an excellent sharp shooter. She had fired based on her intuition rather than relying on her eyes.
As the danger passed, Shangguan Ning copsed and sat down to the floor with shaky legs.
Zhao Anan was no better than Shangguan Ning. She had been so scared that something was going to happen to her.
If anything had happened, Jing Yichen would have gone crazy.
Even though Shangguan Ning was fine right now, Jing Yichen was still going to get mad. Another storm of blood would visit A City soon.
As for Shangguan Rouxue and Tang Yun, they would wish that they were dead.
Zhao Anan held Shangguan Ning and said softly, Ning, we are fine. But the two mental women are going to die!
Shangguan Ning nodded. She was feeling tired and wanted to rest now.
But she suddenly realized something and stood up abruptly, dragging Zhao Anan out.
What is it, Ning?
Anan, lets get out. The scent is still in the vi. I suspect that it is musk. Tang Yun brought it here. It may cause miscarriage!
Startled, Zhao Anan rushed out faster than Shangguan Ning.
But as they walked out of the house, they were startled by the scene in the garden. Then they started to vomit violently.
In the garden there was a pile of dead people lying on the grass. They had been shot in their heads and stomach. The greenwn had turned into deep red and the metallic smell of blood hit their senses.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan had never seen this scene and almost passed out in fright. Shangguan Ning kept puking out of control.
Ning!
A familiar voice reached her. It was a voice filled with anxiety, panic, heartache and guilt.
She was suddenly engulfed in a warm embrace. Shangguan Ning rxed finally and with herst shred of strength, said, Yichen...
Mu Qing wanted to check upon his woman who was also vomiting violently when Jing Yichen shouted, Mu Qing, check Ning!
Zhao Anan waved to him, gesturing that she was fine. Mu Qing noticed that she was in high spirits except for the pale face. Also, she had no blood over her, which meant that she was fine.
He felt Shangguan Nings pulse. The baby was fine and so was she.
A momentter, Mu Qing withdrew his hand and said in a rxed tone, She is fine, just a bit startled. She needs to rest for a couple of days. The baby is fine. Noone is hurt.
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief and carried Shangguan Ning in his arms, and put her into the car.
Tiger, who was in the drivers seat, started the engine instantly at the sight of them, driving away from this area.
After Mu Qing checked Shangguan Ning, he went to check Zhao Anans pulse despite her resistance. Then he smiled and said, Ha, not bad. Still calm facing such a dangerous situation! Normal heart-beat. I am going to be of no use here anymore.
Zhao Anan had already vomited out everything in her stomach. She threw herself down to the ground as she said in dissatisfaction, Bah, no calmness at all! I was so frightened. It was a matter of minutes before someone was going to die. If Lu hadnt been here, Ning and I might have gone to heaven today. Also, kill Tang Yun. She must die as soon as possible!
Mu Qing picked Zhao Anan in his arms and walked out.
Zhao Anan didnt struggle. She allowed him to carry her out of this bloody garden.
I dont have the say to decide if Tang Yun is going to live or die. She has too big a secret on her that even an experienced policeman like Zheng Jing hasnt been able to figure out anything about her past. Seems like she is a real piece of work. Also, she has saved Master Jings life, otherwise he would not have tolerated her for so long.
Just drug her and let her die! Zhao Anan was displeased. To her, it was very easy to kill someone, especially for a doctor like Mu Qing who could do it with just one dose of the medicine.
Tang Yun will die, but what about the man behind her? The enemy ispletely in the dark right now, hidden. If we kill Tang Yun, we will be blind. They may send another person much smarter than Tang Yun. Then you might not be able to escape another situation like today. Wouldnt it be better to deal with the idiotic Tang Yun instead?
Then what should we do? Zhao Anan got rather annoyed. She couldnt help but pull Mu Qings tie.
Mu Qing almost got strangled to death by her action.
Cant you stop fidgeting whilst talking, Zhao Anan?
Ah, sorry, it was just a subconscious move, dont worry. I just want to kill Tang Yun badly. Tell me what should we do? I am eager to hear about it!
Chapter 389 - If Your World Was Full of Bloodbath
Chapter 389: If Your World Was Full of Bloodbath
Hello??? He was almost strangled to death and she told him not to care about it? She even thought of him as someone annoying.
He had worried so much about her on his way here. And she was only giving him trouble since the moment he had met her.
Mydy, I know you want to kill Tang Yun. But are you trying to kill me too? Mu Qing shook his head helplessly. Unfortunately, his mind was Zhao Anans ve. He felt happy even when he was tormented by her.
Tang Yun will die sooner orter. But she is still of some use at the moment. So she mustnt die now. But there will be many chances for you to torment her as long as she doesnt die. If you can get her to open her mouth, then you might achieve something.
Really?
Zhao Anan immediately became cheerful. She soon forgot about the bloody scene from a moment ago. Instead, she started to think of all methods to attack Tang Yun.
Zheng Jing was startled at the sight of Mu Qing, who was carrying Zhao Anan and walking towards him.
As far as he remembered, Mu Qing and Zhao Anan were a sweet but angry couple who kept quarrelling with each other every single day. It was rare to see Zhao Anan stay in Mu Qings arms quietly.
They looked like a couple deeply in love.
Zheng Jing suddenly was reminded of his sister. He wanted to hug her when there was no one around.
Mu Qing put down Zhao Anan as walked to Zheng Jings side.
Seeing Zheng Jing standing there alone and Jing Yichens car gone, he suddenly realized that Jing Yichen had deserted them once again.
Well, taxi then.
...
Jing Yichen urged Tiger to drive faster.
Tiger was sure that he had never driven a car so fast, but his master stillined about the speed.
When they returned to Landscape Compound, Jing Yichen opened the door, carried Shangguan Ning into the elevator and took her into the bedroom straight away.
Shangguan Ning was nauseous. She felt much better after sheid down in bed, finally.
Jing Yichen looked unprecedentedly nervous as he held her tightly in his arms.
Although Mu Qing had said that Shangguan Ning and the baby were fine, yet he was still anxious and agonized seeing Shangguan Ning suffering so much.
Ning, are you okay? Should we go to the hospital? How are you feeling?
A series of questions showed how uneasy he was.
Shangguan Ning held his hands and replied, Dont worry, I am fine, just a bit nauseated, maybe because I am pregnant.
Or maybe because the scene from earlier had affected her.
But Shangguan Ning didnt say anything more. She didnt want Jing Yichen to worry about her.
But Jing Yichen wasnt a gullible man.
Shangguan Ning had not experienced morning sickness before. How was it possible that she suddenly got it?
Jing Yichen wanted to say something when Shangguan Ning said, Yichen, I feel a bit sick, can you carry me to take a bath?
She was still concerned about the blood she had seen, fearing that the violence might be bad for the child. She just wanted to cleanse herself.
Jing Yichen agreed instantly. He carried her into the bathroom.
After the shower, Shangguan Ning felt much better dressed in a set of clean and soft PJs.
Jing Yichen also got changed andid down with Shangguan Ning, taking her into his arms.
He kept kissing her as he said to her apologetically, Sorry that you were frightened today, Ning, it is my fault. I should have been by your side at the time.
Shangguan Ning shook head and said softly, I am happy that you are by my side right now. I am not scared. I know that you cant be by my side all the time. I dont want to be your burden. I can take care of myself. It was a dangerous incident today, but let bygones be bygones. I was not scared. I just wanted to keep our baby well so he wouldnt get hurt.
This was her first baby with Jing Yichen. They were looking forward to seeing him. Shangguan Ning was fearless with him around.
Maybe that was what a mother was like.
Her mother had kept her safe despite her situation. She chose to kill herself and let her daughter live.
Shangguan Ning finally understood how her mother would have felt then.
She didnt me Jing Yichen. He had his own matters to attend to and what he faced was much more dangerous.
Shangguan Ning was certain about one thing after this incident.
Yichen, teach me how to shoot, or wrestle. I want to learn it for self defense.
Shangguan Ning sounded gentle, but she was determined.
Jing Yichen got both gratified and heartbroken. He med himself for making the situation such that Shangguan Ning now had to learn these life skills.
With tears in his eyes, he said hoarsely, Okay, I will teach you if you want to learn them. But I hope you dont have to use them in the future. I will deal with all the dangers and your world, our babys world, will be safe. I promise you, my baby!
His heart ached so much for Shangguan Ning today.
He imed to be powerful and strong, but he still had got Shangguan Ning into the danger zone.
Yang Muyan was much fiercer than he had imagined. She seemed to have a well devised n. She had gathered all their enemies and made ns ording to each of their personalities.
She must have started the preparations a long time ago. Some of his men had been bought off by her, otherwise todays situation would not have happened.
Yang Muyan must die!
Shangguan Ning looked up and kissed Jing Yichens chin and smiled slightly. Yichen, me and the baby will never back off. We will always support you no matter what you do. If your world is full of blood bath, we will keep youpany alongside. We are not scared with you around.
She didnt want Jing Yichen to be burdened with everything. Though he was powerful and capable but they were in this marriage together. Jing Yichen didnt want anything to happen to her, so did she.
She would rather face all the troubles and difficulties together. She would not want to taste the peace alone.
Moved, Jing Yichen took hold of Shangguan Ning as a smile hovered on his lips. Silly girl, I do what I should do. You are my woman. If I cant give you happiness and a steady life, then my lifes a failure.
Chapter 390 - Do You Like Me So Much?
Chapter 390: Do You Like Me So Much?
Whether it was because of the violent scenes from the previous day or due to the pregnancy, Shangguan Ning experienced extreme morning sickness after she woke up.
She felt as if she would faint due to such a bad sickness bout.
Jing Yichen held onto her tightly and said nervously, Ning, how are you feeling? Lets go to the hospital.
Shangguan Ning shook her head and said, It is fine, I will be okay after some rest. It is just morning sickness, dont worry.
Jing Yichen was, of course, worried. He used a wet towel and wiped Shangguan Nings face gently. Then he carried her to the bedroom and poured a cup of warm water for her.
Shangguan Ning felt better after leaning against the pillow and drank some water.
You were fine a month ago. What is going on now? Is it because of yesterday?
Jing Yichens heart was hurting when he saw Shangguan Nings pale face. He sounded guilty and angry.
It was indeed a shocking experience yesterday, but dont worry, I am not that easily scared.
Shangguan Ning leaned into Jing Yichens arms and breathed in his familiar scent. It gave her a sense of assurance, making her feel infinitely better. Even her nausea seemed to abate at that moment.
Jing Yichen gathered her closer into his arms. He could see colour return to her pale face. As long as Shangguan Ning felt better, he would do anything.
After Shangguan Ning had gotten pregnant, Jing Yichen read many books on pregnancy. He knew that during pregnancy, she might experience emotional ups and downs and that she might even feel dependent and scared.
Shangguan Ning had not yet felt such a thing. She had always been in a good, steady state. She didnt throw a tantrum for no reason. But the fact that she was depending on him today was probably because of what she had experienced the day before.
Jing Yichen could feel the frost in his heart. He wanted to tear apart Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue and kill Yang Muyan who was behind all this. He swore to himself that these people would not live for long.
A whileter, Shangguan Ning felt much better. She spoke in a soft voice, I think that it was just morning sickness. Everything is fine now. I had thought that our baby was obedient but seems that it is not.
Jing Yichen felt that she might be right, but he still didnt feel assured. He held her chin and said bossily, Whatever the reason may be, we have to go to the hospital today. It is non-negotiable.
He had read some medical books iming that pregnant women tended to feel dizzy, tired, sleepy and experienceck of appetite, morning sickness etc. This often happened in the morning without any intake of food.
Shangguan ning had been pregnant for around six weeks now, so it was normal that such a thing happened. But he still felt that it would be safer to get checked at the hospital once.
Jing Yichen had no experience in taking care of pregnant women. He was learning everything from books and websites. So he dare not make a judgment so easily. But he didnt think that Shangguan Ning should keep vomiting in this way. She should at least eat something.
Shangguan Ning felt herself losing strength. She didnt even want to go till the dining room.
Baby, you need to eat something, or you and the child will run out of nutrients. Jing Yichen pampered her. Tell me whatever that you want to eat? I can ask Du to make for you or Tiger to buy it.
Shangguan Ning had no appetite at all, although she was quite pleased being spoiled by Jing Yichen.
I just want to lie here. I dont want to move or eat anything...
Shangguan Ning said in an indulgent way as she yed Jing Yichens shirts buttons.
She barely acted in such a way, because she found it embarrassing. But today it seemed toe to her naturally.
Was it that she was feeling younger because of the pregnancy?
Well, Jing Yichen was her husband, behaving in this manner wasnt a big deal!
But what Shangguan Ning didnt know was that Jing Yichens heart softened when she behaved in this way.
For Jing Yichen, Shangguan Ning was the only woman in his entire life. He barely spoke with anyone else, let alone getting to know them at a deeper level.
He had managed to resist other women easily, be it the charmingly sexy or pure and innocent type. His heart had never been hooked. There had been many women who acted like a spoiled girl in front of him but none of them had moved his heart.
But he couldnt resist when Shangguan Ning acted like a spoiled girl in front of him. He would do whatever she said, even if she wanted him to get a star or the moon from the sky.
Baby, just lie down here. I will bring the food here, hang on.
Jing Yichen would allow Shangguan Ning to do anything, but will notpromise over food.
Shangguan Ningheld onto his waist and mumbled with pursed lips, I dont want you to leave...
Jing Yichen burst intoughter. He said in his sexy voice, Do you like me so much? You dont even want me to be away from you for even one second?
His smile made him look exceptionally handsome against the sunlight, this morning.
Shangguan Ning was startled looking at him. She felt that there was no one in the entire world who was better looking than Jing Yichen.
She was lost in staring at him and mumbled. I like you, and I want to be with you forever.
Jing Yichen chuckled at the sight of her. He felt very proud seeing that his wife was obsessed with him.
He looked down and kissed Shangguan Nings eyebrows and eyes, her pretty nose and her red cherry lips.
Chapter 391 - Jing Dabao
Chapter 391: Jing Dabao
The best thing in the world must be waking up and being taken great care of by the man you loved. It was also a wonderful thing to be kissed gently and indulged by him.
Shangguan Ning looped her hands through Jing Yichens neck and smiled happily. It feels nice to be kissed by you. I am not even feeling sick any more.
Jing Yichen chuckled. Oh, so it seems that I am also a medicine. You must take more of me in the future!
The coupleid in bed for another few moments before Ning got up in a good mood and went for breakfast with Jing Yichen to the dining room.
Luckily, Shangguan Ning didnt feel ufortable at the breakfast table anymore. Maybe it was because all the dishes were her favorites. One of them turned out to be sour plum soup, which she drank up cheerfully and also finished many dishes.
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief.
After they finished breakfast, Jing Yichen changed and helped Shangguan Ning change as well before going downstairs with her hands in his.
Ever since Shangguan Ning got pregnant, Jing Yichen was making her wear shoes and even tied theces for her most of the time, because he didnt want her to bend down.
Shangguan Ning sat in the car andughed seeing Jing Yichen driving towards the hospital. I am fine now, we dont need to go to the hospital. They willugh at us for being so nervous about the smallest things and visiting the hospital so often.
Actually, what she wanted to say was that she had married a husband with excellent qualities, one who treated her and her baby so beautifully. She was indeed a lucky woman!
She had always thought that she must have been the least lucky one, because nothing used to work out in her earlier life.
But the truth was that her luck had been waiting for her!
She massaged her belly and whispered inside her heart C baby, we are the luckiest mother and baby. You muste out safe and sound so we can take good care of your father and keep himpany.
Seeing Shangguan Ning smiling, Jing Yichen chuckled, What are you smiling about?
Shangguan Ning tilted her head and said seriously, I am talking to the baby.
Jing Yichen burst intoughter. Our son wont understand anything you say yet. You started too early!
Shangguan Ning blinked and said with a smile, Not necessarily, we mustmunicate with him right from the start, so that he will be already smart when he is born.
Oh, that you dont need to worry about. Our son will be a genius no matter what, given the fact that your husband is so intelligent.
Shangguan Ning chuckled. Jing Dabao, you are way too conceited. You will set a bad example for our son.
Jing Yichen didnt seem to like this name much. He said helplessly, Wife, cant we use a better name? Like, husband, or, Brother Jing...
Brother Jing truly creeped Shangguan Ning out.
I think that Jing Dabao sounds better. That was the name I wanted for my son. But if you disapprove of it, I would call him Jing Xiaobao!
That name sounded way too weird!
Jing Yichenpletely lost the hope of asking his wife to name their children. So he said instantly, Why dont you leave it to me? I will name our child. We dont even know for sure if it is a daughter or a son. You better continue with your early teachings.
What if his family name had been Wei? Then his son would have been Wei Xiaobao instead.
His wife was so talented that she coulde up with such a cultural name!
Shangguan Ning didnt want to give too much thought to the babys name till they didnt know for sure whether it was a boy or a girl. But she liked it when Jing Yichen was called Dabao, so Jing Yichen was driven crazy by her all the way through.
Jing Dabao!
.....
Dabao, I am talking to you. Why are you not responding?
.....
Dabao, dont you think that the name is lovely?
.... Why must he, a man, be thought of as being lovely?
Dabao, I want to drink some more sour plum soup, cant I get any more?
Baby, just stop calling me Dabao. Then you can drink as much as you want for lunch, please...
...
When they reached the hospital, Shangguan Ning finally stopped. Jing Yichen pulled her into Mu Qings office, looking hassled.
Mu Qing looked up and saw that Jing Yichen looked agonized. It was so rare to see Master Jing wearing this expression.
But Shangguan Ning next to him had a really calm expression. She was smiling and looked totally different from how she had seemed the day before.
Sister, you look nice. Come and sit down, let me feel your pulse.
Mu Qing ignored the man beside her and greeted Shangguan Ning in a friendly manner. He realised instinctively that he better not converse with Jing Yichen at the moment.
Shangguan Ning sat next to Mu Qing, rolled up her sleeve and said, Sorry to trouble you again, Doctor Mu!
Mu Qing ced the fingers upon Shangguan Nings wrist whilst saying, Haha, Sister, dont say that. We are a family. This is no trouble. I am very happy to feel the pulse of a pretty... oh sister!
Prettydy had been his catch phrase, which he used for even older women, who were in their 40s. After all, every girl liked to be called pretty. Hence it slipped out of his mouth for Shangguan Ning, who was actually pretty.
But Jing Yichens look creeped Mu Qing out. He had to change the words instantly.
A momentter, Mu Qing removed his fingers and said with determination, Sister, you and the nephew are both doing well. I will prescribe you some natural Vitamin C, one pill a day will be enough. It is totally safe, no side effects.
Shangguan Ning nodded and said, Okay.
She knew that women tended to need more vitamins at this stage. Anyways, Mu Qing knew more than she did about this. She would follow whatever he tells her.
Also. Mu Qing said, Do you remember the medicinal wine my grandpa gave you. Drink it every day. It is good for the babys growth and for him to develop a strong immune system.
Chapter 392 - Musk Changed
Chapter 392: Musk Changed
Shangguan Ning nodded with a smile. Okay, I will drink it every single day. Its a precious thing and I wont waste it. The medicinal wine doesnt taste like wine at all. It smells great and it is enjoyable to drink it every single day.
Shangguan Ning suddenly thought of the strong scent she had inhaled when she was with Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue the day before.
She had thought that it was musk, but she had no reaction after smelling it for so long. How weird!
She had been pregnant for only one month and that was when the baby might be the most vulnerable. Musk caused miscarriage, but then why was she totally fine?
Doctor Mu, does musk cause miscarriage?
Mu Qing should have more knowledge about musk than she did. Shangguan Ning popped the question suddenly.
Mu Qings face changed and asked nervously, Sister, why did you mention musk? Of course it causes miscarriage, especially in the first three months when the pregnancy is not yet stable!
Jing Yichen next to her also frowned. Why are you asking about this, Ning?
Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue seemed to carry musk with them yesterday. They kept me waiting for long and babbled a lot. I realizedter that they were trying to cause a dy so that the musk could act on me.
Shangguan Ning recounted the scene that happened the day before.
But I had never smelled musk before. I found out that it was a peculiar scent and suspected it to be musk. But I stayed with them for more than half an hour and I am fine. Could it have been something else?
Shangguan Ning words reminded Mu Qing of something.
When he had returned to the hospital yesterday, Lu was already at the hospital with those three people who were badly injured. Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue had bullets in them and were pushed into the emergency room immediately.
Tang Yun was emitting a strong scent when he entered the emergency room, one that couldnt be covered even by disinfecting water.
He smiled and said, I know what it is. What you thought smelled like musk, wasnt musk, but ambergris. Those two spices smell quite simr to each other, but ambergris doesnt cause miscarriage.
Shanguan Ning let out a sigh of relief. Holding Jing Yichens hands into hers tightly, she smiled and said, Good that it was not musk.
Jing Yichen grasped Shangguan Nings hands with force. It was a tight grip because he was not calm any more.
So Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue were entertaining these kinds of ideas.
Apparently, their original purpose had been to make Shangguan Ning miscarry with musk, but the spice was changed for some reason.
The question was who changed the spice?
Shangguan Ning wondered the same thing.
Jing Yichen knew what Shangguan Ning was thinking, judging from her expression. He said softly, It is fine, I will find it out.
Someone was helping Shangguan Ning from Yang Muyans side. It was a good thing, no matter what.
The three of them were talking when Zhao Anan rushed in with sweat all over her. She grabbed the cup which was kept at Mu Qings table and drained it instantly.
I am dreadfully thirsty, get me one more cup.
Mu Qing stood up helplessly and then fetched water from the water machine which was only one step away from where Zhao Anan stood.
My deardy, I have indeed owed you much in the past. I even need to serve you water!
Zhao Anan ignored him. She was very cheerful at the sight of Shangguan Ning andughed, Ning, want to see a blockbuster?
Shangguan Ning was confused. What blockbuster, a movie?
Zhao Anan blinked and nodded heavily. Yes, movie, a huge movie with Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue as the leading characters. I am the fabulous director called Zhao Anan, and the movie is titled... Big Massacre!
Ah? Are they in the hospital now? Shangguan Ning was surprised for a second before understanding the situation. They must have been brought here by Lu upon Jing Yichens orders.
Jing Yichen didnt want them to die so fast. So he asked Lu to get them to the hospital for treatment.
But it seemed that they would not have a peaceful time in the hospital, judging from Zhao Anans look.
Shangguan Ning didnt hesitate for too long before standing up. Lets go and watch the movie!
She had just walked out when arge, warm hand took hold of her hand.
Shangguan Ning turned around and he said, Be careful! Dont bother talking to them. Dont get angry no matter what they say. They will be killed when they are of no value, I promise!
Shangguan Ning smiled and nodded. Okay. I am going to watch the show not to y in it. Dont worry, I will be fine.
She said as Jing Yichen released her hand and allowed her to leave with Zhao Anan.
Family Mus Hospital was a famous hospital in A City, so the environment for the wards was extremely nice. The safety facilities and the decoration inside the advanced wards were all state-off-the-art. Even the ordinary wards were like the rooms at a five-star hotel.
However, when Zhao Anan and Shangguan Ning entered the ward, it was discovered that the wards were spacious but there was not a single window there. There were only simple wooden beds. The room stank of mould and it seemed that the room had not been cleaned in a long time.
Zhao Anan said proudly, How does it look? I have picked a wonderful site, havent I? I found the perfect room for the two actresses. This storage room is the only one which I thought was appropriate for them. Look how dedicated I am!
No wonder there was no window in the room. It was an abandoned storage room.
But before the Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue moved in, Zhao Anan might have asked someone to clear things out.
Shangguan Ning chuckled. Zhao Anan was indeed a smart woman who had found a special ward for them to live in and to increase their sufferings.
But Shangguan Ning noticed a tiny silhouette sitting on the chair at the door.
Lu, what are you doing here? Have you been here since yesterday?
Lu looked at Shangguan Ning and nodded in silence.
Chapter 393 - Watch Out for Blood Stains
Chapter 393: Watch Out for Blood Stains
The two Lus had pr opposite personalities. Although Shangguan Ning had seen it many times, but she was still not quite used to the situation.
Every time she saw Lu, she would suspect that she had a twin sister. Otherwise, how could she possibly have such pr opposite personalities?
Lu in front of her right now was apparently in her normal state. She red at Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue, caring about no one else.
No wonder Jing Yichen had allowed her toe with Zhao Anan C Lu was already here.
Zhao Anan had already be used to Lus angle face and demon personality. She didnt find it weird. Instead, she admired Lu for her abilities.
Sigh, Ning, I wish I could be as strong as Lu. I wouldnt have to suffer much or be afraid of anyone in the fights in future. How unfair! This girl is prettier than me and better at martial arts than me. She is fiercer and stronger, and even has a worse temper. How unreasonable! Why does she have all the advantages?
Although Shangguan Ning knew that Zhao Anan didnt think like normal people, but most of the time her thoughts made sense. But right now her words made her speechless.
How were these advantages? Only Zhao Anan would think that being good at martial arts was an advantage.
Not only Shangguan Ning found Zhao Anan strange, even the expressionless Lu stared at her.
It had been the first time for someone to... speak highly of her.
The two patients lying in the sickbeds couldnt lie still any more. They started to shout loudly.
They were lying on two tiny single beds, separately, with one crying out for help and the other cursing Zhao Anan and Shangguan Ning.
Zhao Anan came to the bedside leisurely and said authoritatively, Shout as loudly as you want. Better let every single person at the hospital hear your scream. I want this hospital to be shut down and you are doing me a favor.
Zhao Anan, if you want to kill me, just do it quickly. What face do you have to torment us two weak women?
Tang Yun cried so loudly that her voice had got hoarse. Apparently, she had been crying for a long time.
Shangguan Ning approached Tang Yun and saw the mess that these two were in.
Both of them were tied to their beds, unable to move even an inch.
Shangguan Rouxue was in a slightly better state. Although she looked pale and her hair was unkempt, but apart from the two visible palm-prints on the face, she had no other wounds. Yet her clothes were creased and full of blood stains, her feet and head were covered with gauze. She looked like aplete mess.
Zhao Anan didnt know her well and had no history with her. She had no idea what she had ever done to Shangguan Ning. Hence, when she put on a pitiful face, Zhao Anan hadnt tormented her much.
But Tang Yun was in a terrible state!
She had wounds all over her face and blood gushed out of her lips and nose. Her eyes were bloodshot and her wig was nowhere to be seen, showing her near bald scalp. It was impossible to tell if she was a boy or a girl.
She was someone who was not afraid of death and kept provoking Zhao Anan.
Hearing that she was stillining, Zhao Anan pulled Shangguan Ning backwards and said in a reasonable tone, Ms. Shangguan, better back off a bit in case you get a blood stain on you. I need to use the knife now.
Hearing that she was going to use the knife, Shangguan Ning found it satisfactory rather than being guilty or worried.
Tang Yun was a mentally disturbed woman who would keep looking for trouble as long as she had the chance. If Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan had fallen into her hands, they would be suffering much more right now than she was.
Zhao Anan walked towards Tang Yuns side. She scooped out some rotten needles from her pockets and then stabbed them into some points on Tang Yuns head with full strength.
Tang Yun screamed. Pain crept over her body and her teeth ttered. She seemed to be going through extremely strong pain.
Seeing that she almost passed out in pain, Zhao Anan pulled off the needle from the top of her head.
Yeah, how is my medical skill? I used it for the first time today. It seems to work out well. No wonder Mu Qing likes using needles. What a nice weapon to deal with bad people!
A long whileter, Tang Yun said, Didnt you say knife? Those were needles, not a knife!
She wanted to die because of the painful torment. She tried to make Zhao Anan stab herself so that she didnt need to face the torment and humiliation any further.
Zhao Anan tossed the needles into her pocket and then said in an understanding tone, Ah, so you prefer knives. No problem, I can make your wishe true!
Tang Yun couldnt stand it any more. A thought came to her and she screamed, Why are you tormenting me only? Shangguan Rouxue is your real enemy. Her mother seduced Shangguan Nings father and forced her mother to die. She even stole her fiance and now she is onto Brother Yichen. You should hit her, not me.
Zhao Anan had never heard Shangguan Ning mentioning her past, let alone the problems she had with Shangguan Rouxue. Slightly startled, she turned to Shangguan Ning.
Ning, is Tang Yun speaking the truth?
They were separated by a couple of meters and Zhao Anan found Shangguan Ning wearing a weary expression. But her voice was clear and calm. Yes, it is true. But I also forced Shangguan Rouxues mother to die and I almost forced my father to die too. But Shangguan Rouxues men were a step ahead of me and gunned down my father first. Now all those who should die, have died. There is only one person who is alive, one that is lying in front of us, half-dead.
Only now did Zhao Anan understand how Shangguan Nings past had been like. No wonder she never mentioned her family.
She had put it forward in a very calm manner C forcing Shangguan Rouxues mother and her father to die. How many people could react this way? She would never have done anything terrible to them unless she was forced past a certain limit. That was what Shangguan Ning was like.
Chapter 394 - Interrogators (Part One)
Chapter 394: Interrogators (Part One)
Zhao Anan could imagine what Shangguan Ning must have gone through.
Her father and mother were separated as well because her father felt lonely and had an affair with a model who was ten years younger.
Her parents had divorced when Zhao Anan was 12 years old. All she knew was that her father had left her mother and her for someone else.
She hated that young model but she hated her father even more because even if the young model had not happened, there would have been some other woman who would lure him away and make him betray his family.
The external temptation was just part of the reason. Whatid deep within was that the man was not responsible at all.
Zhao Anan had her fathers family name before, but after her parents divorce, she changed it into her mothers surname.
Her mother, Zhao Zhao had already cut all connections with her father and they were living a separate life. But despite that, Zhao Anan still hated her father to the deepest degree whenever she thought of him.
Her mother was not only born into an aristocratic family but had been a girl with extreme beauty. It was said that her mother and her aunt had been the two most beautiful flowers of A City back then and there were numerous people who were courting them.
But her father still ended up falling for someone else after being married for dozens of years.
But it seemed that Shangguan Ning had had a worse experience than she did. She survived under her stepmothers domination after her real mother was forced to die by her stepmother. It must have been very difficult to grow up to be who she was now.
Shangguan Ning was way too kind hearted. Had it been her, she would have poisoned the horrible couple before she grew up.
Zhao Anan came to Shangguan Ning andforted her. It is all in the past now. We can do whatever we want with this half dead woman so that she would know what it feels like being live in hell.
Shangguan Ning had stopped feeling bad about her mothers death as she used to. Although her heart still ached for her mother who had sacrificed her own life for her but she was able to remain calm now maybe because of the revenge that she had extracted.
If her mother were still here, she would have wanted her daughter to live a happy and healthy life.
She didnt tell Shangguan Ning anything or reveal anything to her only brother, Huang Lihan, probably because she didnt want Shangguan Ning live in hatred or seek revenge.
Shangguan Ning hugged Zhao Anan back and showed a slight smile on the face, Yes, I have been wanting to torment Shangguan Rouxue for a very long time.
Beauty, you dont need to do anything. You just sit and watch the show. Didnt I tell you that I am the director? You better not let my nephew get too close to this 18+ scene, otherwise he might pick up the habit of whipping people.
Zhao Anan pressed Shangguan Ning back down on the seat. She was a careless woman but could be cautious at times.
Shangguan Ning needed to be well protected at the moment. Nothing should happen to her. She better stay away from these two dangerous women. What if they suddenly came up with some horrid plot because of which Shangguan Ning could get hurt?
Having said the words, Zhao Anan went back to the bedside.
She raised her hand and pped hard on Shangguan Rouxues tender face. Seems that you are not a good girl either. Thanks to Ms. Tangs reminder, otherwise I would have ignored you. You should definitely thank Ms. Tang for dragging you down when she couldnt take it anymore.
Zhao Anan said as she turned to Tang Yun on the other bed and smiled at her. Thank you for being such a good woman and cooperating with me in this movie making. I will save the knife stabbing thing forter.
Tang Yun felt creeped out. She had started to collect information about Shangguan Rouxue recently and had it ready for a time like this.
Although she was in the same team as Shangguan Rouxue, to remove Shangguan Ning and her child but as trouble came their way, Tang Yun threw her under the bus to save herself.
Zhao Anan had wanted to create trouble between them. She had wanted them to turn on each other so that she could gain something from it.
Apparently, she seeded. It had been the perfect ploy to trap these selfish women.
Shangguan Rouxue started to cry. Unlike Tang Yun, she looked very beautiful even while crying, fragile and innocent, making it difficult for anyone to do anything to her.
Anan, dont listen to Tang Yun. I have always been nice to my sister. She has been misunderstanding me all the time. Tang Yun and Jing Yiran were the culprits for what happened yesterday. They threatened me because of which I had to tag along. I am thest one who would hurt my sister. She is my only family left now.
Zhao Anan listened to Shangguan Rouxue with interest. Her eyes widened at her words. Oh, really? So you are innocent? But your mother died because of Ning, dont you hate her?
Shangguan Rouxue started to think that Zhao Anan was beginning to believe her. No, not at all. I have always been a good friend to my sister, and I will never hate her. I had done terrible things to her before and I have been saying sorry to her for the same for a long time now. Please forgive me!
I dont me my sister for what happened with mother. She deserved it. She needed to be punished for what she had done. But I never knew what my mother did. If I had, I would have stopped her from doing it.
Anyone who didnt know the situation well, would have trusted Shangguan Rouxue and thought her to be a wonderful girl, kind and gentle and imagined Shangguan Ning to be the bad one who forced her mother and father to die.
Shangguan Rouxue was used to creating such a show so that everyone trusted her rather than Shangguan Ning. She only showed the worst of herself to Shangguan Ning when they were alone.
Sitting on the chair at the door next to Lu, Shangguan Ning had no change in expressions on her face as she listened to Shangguan Rouxues fabricated story.
But Lu nced at Shangguan Ning in astonishment after hearing what Shangguan Rouxue had just narrated. She said, You look calm.
Chapter 395 - Interrogators (Part Two)
Chapter 395: Interrogators (Part Two)
Lu had always thought that Shangguan Ning was the worlds happiest woman, for she was always sunny and outgoing, gentle and friendly towards everyone. She seemed like an aristocraticdy who had never been through any setbacks. She had imagined that Shangguan Ning was a flower that had grown in a sheltered greenhouse.
But that had not been the case.
Beneath her gentle smile, her heart was actually full of holes. Anyone else would have been tremendously affected because of such experiences.
But she had not. She still loved life and had remained kind hearted and optimistic.
Shangguan Rouxue was her sister and was trying to twist the truth by victimising herself and defaming Shangguan Ning. She must have done simr things many times in the past as well. Judging from Shangguan Nings calm personality, she must have been the victim many times before.
Lu felt that it was time for her to examine herself. She was sick only because she was not psychologically strong.
Shangguan Ning smiled and turned to Lu after hearing what she said. I am used to it.
She looked at Shangguan Rouxue who was trying so hard to exin to Zhao Anan. Then she sneered.
Shangguan Rouxue has been putting up a show for almost twenty years, now. She is a gifted actress who fooled me as well in the beginning. Butter, I realized that she was always pretending. She enjoys being praised as an innocent and kind hearteddy although she is a devious person. She has been sessful more often than not in her attempts.
After a moment of silence, Lu suddenly said, You are way too soft hearted. Kill her instantly. You shouldnt hesitate even for a second.
Shangguan Ning shook her head. Killing a person is not so easy. She might die but I will also end up being in prison. It is not worth the while to ruin my life for a woman like her.
For Lu, human lives meant nothing. The reason why she was able to escape penalties after killing so many people was only because Family Jing covered for her.
Of course, Lu would still kill without Family Jings protection. She didnt care about others lives or her own life. She didnt even care about being alive or dead. She was alone and no one would shed tears for her even if she died. That was what Lus personality was like.
Shangguan Rouxue had used up almost all of her strength to convince Zhao Anan but she still remained suspicious of her.
...You really dont like Ning? Then why did you try to kill her yesterday, you and Tang Yun? Did I see wrong, or do I remember wrongly?
Zhao Anan fiddled with the de in hands as her finger glided over the sharp knife, showing a sinister smile.
Seeing her menacing expression, Shangguan Rouxue got so anxious that she sweated terribly. She wanted to curse loudly but what she could do was to maintain an innocent tone. Anan, I am telling the truth. I was forced, because... because I need to protect my child. I just gave birth to a baby. How could I allow anything to happen to him?
Oh? Zhao Anan was interested. She stopped gliding the de over her face.
You have a child? You dont look like someone who has given birth to a baby. You look so slender!
Yes, yes, yes I did! Tang Yun and Jing Yiran threatened me with my childs safety. They said that if I didnt kill my sister, they would kill my child.
Nonsense, Shangguan Rouxue! I dont even know where your child is. How could I threaten you with him?
Tang Yun screamed. She was scared that Zhao Anan would change her mind and start to stab her instead.
Dont listen to her, Anan, someone else is supporting her from behind. I have nothing to do with it. I had many men with me because someone else had sent them along. I was fooled by Shangguan Rouxue so I tagged along. She is not telling the truth.
Shangguan Ning, who was sitting not far from them, suddenly felt that Zhao Anan was worthy of being Zheng Jings partner. She was so good at interrogating. Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue had started to me everything on each other, giving away information in the process.
But she didnt know that Shangguan Rouxue had already given birth to the baby.
As per her calctions, only seven months of pregnancy would have been over by now. How could the childe out so fast? She couldnt have used oxytocin to get the child out before he was mature enough, or did she?
Shangguan Ning thought for a while and decided that she could really have done such a thing judging from her personality. She was not only mean to others, but to herself as well!
Shangguan Rouxue would try to hurt herself so that everyone could suspect her sister. She had even jumped into the sea in order to prove her innocence. Triggering early birth of the baby was a small thing for Shangguan Rouxue.
But if she really did give birth to the baby, then Xie Zhuojun had be a father. She wasnt sure if Xie Zhuojun knew that the woman whom he had been longing for, for so long had done such a deed.
Shangguan Ning would like to see the resentment on his face when he heard about this matter. But she couldnt do that anymore because she had no intention of meeting Xie Zhuojun ever again. She had removed him from her life,pletely.
Zhao Anan was very satisfied with her performance. She hadnt even used the de and these two women started to spill everything.
She would be victorious if the situation went on like this.
So someone was helping these two women from behind. Who was that person? She must be caught and tormented.
She had almost been frightened to death yesterday. She would lose her life if something so urgent and dangerous happened again.
Zhao Anan winked at Shangguan Ning. Then she moved a chair and ced it between the two beds. She sat down with her legs across. She glided the sharp de over her face and said inposure, Which one of you should I believe, when both of you are telling a reasonable story?
Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue shouted simultaneously, Me!
Shangguan Rouxue exined anxiously, I was definitely forced. Second Master said that if I dont cooperate, my child will be dead. Second Master had sent the men with us yesterday. I ampletely innocent.
Bullshit, Shangguan Rouxue! Half of them men were yours. Do you think that just because the dead men cant talk, you can trap us? We can confront Jing Yiran together.
Seeing Tang Yun getting so anxious, Zhao Anan put the de by her ears and said with a smile, Well, well, well, tell me your full n from start to finish. Any more lies, I will cut off one of your ears and you will be a freak. Haha, and if your version is true, I will chop Shangguan Rouxues ear, sounds fair?
Chapter 396 - The Unforeseen
Chapter 396: The Unforeseen
How is that fair?
Why must her ear be chopped off? Zhao Anan wouldnt even be able to figure it whether what she said was true or false. What if Zhao Anan didnt want to believe the truth which she told? Will she would lose her ear then?
Tang Yun got so irritated that she wanted to beat Zhao Anan to death.
Zhao Anan was a crazy woman. She looked like a normal human being and could be a bit careless. But she got really excited every time it came to fights. She would definitely remove Shangguan Rouxues ear if she said that she would.
Tang Yun felt desperate at this moment. She wished that someone could rescue her and take her away from Zhao Anan.
She would torture Zhao Anan to death if she got an opportunity.
However, Shangguan Rouxue was even more desperate than Tang Yun.
She had never met anyone who was as unreasonable as Zhao Anan and who preferred using a de rather than words. She had thought that Tang Yun was mad and fierce, but it turned out that Zhao Anan was even worse. She wanted to cut off their ear! How could she live on if she only had one ear left?
What agonised Shangguan Rouxue even more was that Zhao Anan had glided the de over her ear as they were talking, so the sharp de had already ripped off her tender skin, making the blood drip on her cheek. She was terrorised.
Was she going to be ruined by Zhao Anan? If her face got ruined, how was she going to seduce Jing Yichen and gain back Xie Zhuojuns heart?
Only now did Shangguan Rouxue realise that she had been able to deal with Shangguan Ning so easily all this while because Shangguan Ning was a soft hearted person.
Tang Yun didnt care about anything else at this moment. She started to spill out their n incoherently. She told all the details in order to gain Zhao Anans trust. She sold out Shangguan Rouxue and Jing Yiran too.
Someone else is in the shadows this time. I dont know who that person is because she delivers messages through others. I have never met her but she knows Shangguan Rouxue well, she definitely knows her. They seem to be on the same team.
We came to find you when Jing Yichen was not around. The only purpose was to make Shangguan Ning lose her child. We never wanted to kill either of you because the person who helped us said that Shangguan Ning needs to be alive for other purposes and she mustnt die now. Otherwise Family Jing would never let it go.
Jing Yiran told me about Jing Yichens absence. We have been waiting for such an opportunity. Jing Yiran was the one who told me about Shangguan Ning being pregnant. He was trying to use me to make Shangguan Ning lose her child.
Anan, it was pure ident that we ran into you. We never knew that you would be in the vi. I never wanted to hurt you. I was too stupid yesterday and now I know that I was wrong. Please, release me, I will lose all blood from my body if I continue to be like this. Also, I havent eaten anything since I came to this hospital yesterday. I am famished. Dont torture me any more. I promise that I will never create any trouble for you from now on.
Tang Yun said many things at one go and started to beg for mercy. She was trying to use pleading as a method this time instead of threats.
But the issue was that Zhao Anan was immune to both.
Just as Shangguan Ning knew Shangguan Rouxue well, Zhao Anan knew Tang Yun well too. It would have been stupid of her to believe what Tang Yun said about not wanting to hurt her the day before.
But she could sense that what Tang Yun said about the other things, was true.
Zhao Anan poked at Tang Yuns pointed chin with the tip of the de and blood stained the silver colored de instantly.
Tang Yun screamed in pain. Zhao Anan, you maniac! Didnt you say that you would let me go if I tell the truth?
Yes, so I am not chopping off your ear.
Zhao Anan looked at Tang Yun with a sinister smile. Did you think that I will treat you well? if Lu had not been here, me and Ning would have suffered. I knew what you were thinking yesterday. You wanted to kill me instantly. I am merciful to only make you bleed instead.
After she poked Tang Yun, she turned around and ced the sharp de next to Shangguan Rouxues ear.
Dont get impulsive, Anan, I am innocent! Dont believe Tang Yun, I am the one who is beingpletely honest with you...
Before she finished speaking, the rope over Shangguan Rouxues head broke. Despite therge wound on her ear, she sprang up and grabbed Zhao Anans de at a lightening speed and immediately pressed it against Zhao Anans neck.
The whole incident happened way too fast. Shangguan Rouxue was quick as a whip and changed the game instantly.
Shangguan Ning and Lu stood up immediately and Tang Yun on the other side of the bed got so shocked that her eyes widened. She never expected that Shangguan Rouxue could have done anything like this.
Shangguan Ning red at Shangguan Rouxue and started to walk forward. She couldnt allow anything to happen to Zhao Anan. But Lu was faster than Shangguan Ning. She reached Shangguan Rouxue within a few seconds.
Shangguan Rouxue hadnt expected that Lu could be so fast. She screamed, No one moves! If anyone moves, I will kill her. Everyone will die.
She said as the de sunk into Zhao Anans neck, little by little. Red beads of blood slipped out of her neck, making Zhao Anan sweat in fright.
Damn! She had been careless.
Shangguan Rouxue had managed to untie the rope. How did she do that?
Lu was about to walk forward when Shangguan Ning spoke with a pale face. Lu, stop!
Hearing the words, Lu frowned but stopped.
The next instant, she scooped out a gun from the sleeve and aimed at Shangguan Rouxues head.
You better let her go, or you will die. I will not give you another chance to live!
Bah, letting her go will kill me! With this idiot in my hands, I can live. So bad that I cant catch Shangguan Ning as hostage, otherwise I could have escaped earlier.
Shangguan Rouxue finally let the mask of congeniality fall from her face. She was no longer gentle or kind. Her beautiful features were distorted. She looked unusually fierce and twisted.
Chapter 397 - Jing Yichen’s Anger
Chapter 397: Jing Yichens Anger
Back off now! Shangguan Rouxue stabbed Zhao Anans neck with the tip of the de and her skin tore open. Blood ran out of the wound. A whileter, Zhao Anans white Polo shirt was dyed red with her own blood.
Back off now! You and Shangguan Ning! I need to leave!
Lu, do as she says, back off, let her go. Shangguan Ning stopped Lu who was about to step forward. Shangguan Ning turned to Shangguan Rouxe and said in a cold voice, You can go now, but dont hurt Anan anymore, or, you will never get out of this ce.
Shangguan Rouxue was anxious to leave from here, fearing that something would happen if there were any more dys. So she agreed instantly, Okay, no problem. I wont hurt her. Now open the door for me.
Shangguan Ning turned to Zhao Anan in concern. She had shed a lot of blood and looked to be in agony.
She walked to the gate slowly, opened the door and then pulled Lu to the wall, during which time, Shangguan Ning threw her a look.
Lu nodded invisibly.
Shangguan Rouxue, we are far from each other at this moment. You can leave now. I promise not to run after you, but you must leave Anan here before you leave.
Honestly, do you think I am an idiot? Shangguan Rouxue grabbed hold of Zhao Anans arms and put the de closer to her neck. No more tricks. I will leave with Zhao Anan, otherwise you will send someone to catch me if I let her go.
You two must not move now. Or I will rip the blood vessels on her neck and she will die instantly.
Okay, okay, we will not move. Go away. As long as you dont hurt Anan, do what you want. Dont keep the de so close to her. She is bleeding already!
Shangguan Rouxue didnt want to argue with Shangguan Ning in order to get out of the ce as soon as possible. So she moved the de off Zhao Anans neck and then dragged Zhao Anan walk outwards, limping. Shangguan Ning had shot on her foot the day before whilst Lu hit her knee. Both of the wounds were on the same leg, so her foot and knee hurt increasingly. But she tried hard to walk fast.
She needed to go. Her face would be ruined by Zhao Anan if she stayed here.
Lu had her eyes upon Shangguan Rouxue all the time. The moment she dragged Zhao Anan outside, she pulled the trigger.
The bullet hit the two cm wide de urately. The shock made Shangguan Rouxue release the remains of the de and she pushed Zhao Anan in. Then she turned around and ran away.
Shangguan Ning came to Zhao Anan and held her. Tears gushed out of her eyes. Anan, are you alright? We will get the doctor and he will fix your wounds.
She didnt care about Shangguan Rouxue who was running away. Zhao Anan was the most important person for her. Never mind if Shangguan Rouxue ran away, as long as Zhao Anan was fine.
Lu didnt go after her either. Her mission was to protect Shangguan Ning.
She needed to be next to Shangguan Ning all the time when Jing Yichen was not around. She knew that even if she went after her, she could capture her. Yet she didnt move.
Because she wasnt sure if any other danger would ur after she ran out. What if Tang Yun used the same method? Then Shangguan Ning would be in danger.
There were several wounds on Zhao Anans neck, but none of them were deep. She was in so much pain that her face ached. But she turned to Shangguan Ning and showed aforting smile. Dont cry, I am fine. These are all superficial wounds. I should have stabbed Shangguan Rouxue a bit more severely.
No talking, doctor is on the way. Just hold on for a few moments. I hear himing. Shangguan Ning said as she shouted out, Doctor, someone is hurt,e and save her!
When the sound of the gun arose, the security and medical staff had alle running in this direction. After they heard Shangguan Ning, they came to the room.
Mu Qing and Jing Yichen were both very quick. They showed up first. They had been on the way to visit Jing Yiran when they heard the sound of the bullet. They both thought that something had happened where the two women had been held.
Mu Qing got so frightened at the sight of Zhao Anan who was covered in her own blood. His face turned white and his fingers trembled violently as he reached for Zhao Anans wrist. He let out a sigh of relief realizing that she was just slightly injured and everything else was fine with her. He held Zhao Anan and walked outwards.
Jing Yichen didnt look any better. As Shangguan Ning was holding Zhao Anan, she had blood on the hands and body and her face was pale as well. She looked at the edge of falling.
However, Shangguan Ning immediately said to him when he saw himing over to her. I am fine, this is not my blood.
Jing Yichen felt a touch of relief. He nodded and carried her up, and walked out of the ward, ignoring Tang Yun who was calling out his name.
Jing Yichen carried Shangguan Ning to a ward, softly ced her on the bed and then pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket. He wiped the blood stain from her face and hands.
He was very gentle in his movements but he looked very cold.
Shangguan Ning knew that Jing Yichen was angry.
Jing Yichen barely got angry at her. He almost never treated her in such a cold way. Shangguan Ning felt a bit worried.
She said timidly, Yichen... I am fine, I am not hurt, Anan is, I want to... to see her...
Jing Yichen frowned instantly and said to her with a cold gaze, You are not allowed to go anywhere from now on. Stay by my side!
But...
Jing Yichen took her freezing hands in his own and said, No buts! I refuse. Zhao Anan will not die with Mu Qing around. Do you know how frightened I was when I heard the sound of the gun? Do you want me to go crazy? Do you know how important you and the child are for me?
Something happened when I was not around you. I was shivering at the sight of your pale face and blood all over your hands. I am scared, I am scared of losing you, Ning, you are my entire world!
Chapter 398 - All Was Well
Chapter 398: All Was Well
Her fingers ached a bit being held by his hands so tightly. But she was startled by his behavior.
Shangguan Ning stood up and buried her head into his arms. She said softly, It is my fault! I have caused you enough worries. Dont be angry, Yichen, I will protect myself better. Me and the baby will both be fine. I will stay by your side. I was also scared about what happened just now. It was good that Anan didnt allow me to step forward, otherwise I could have been injured as well. I was overconfident and impulsive. Please forgive me, I will never do that again. Dont be angry, I am not feeling well at the moment.
Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning into his arms. Hearing that she was apologizing to him like this, he also felt guilty to have gotten so furious just now.
She must have gotten frightened by what happened just now.
He should have consoled her rather than get angry at her.
Alright, I wont be mad anymore. As long as you and the baby are fine, I wont be angry.
Jing Yichen tried to rein in his emotions. He kissed Shangguan Nings forehead and said hoarsely, But you have to promise me to never go to any dangerous ce or get close to any dangerous people. I will handle all that needs to be taken care of. What you need to do is to stay safe and tell lots of stories to our unborn baby.
Shangguan Ning nodded and tears filled her eyes. Okay.
What happened had been dangerous and shocked her as well. She knew pretty well how fierce Shangguan Rouxue could get.
Luckily, she had kept her distance from Shangguan Rouxue and Tang Yun, otherwise the consequence might have been more serious.
If her child had been injured because of her carelessness, she would have felt very guilty. That was why she understood why Jing Yichen had gotten so furious. She was also angry at herself for making such a huge mistake.
But Shangguan Rouxue had run away. She was not sure if that was a good or a bad thing.
Yichen, Shangguan Rouxue has escaped. We still dont know who is helping her.
Jing Yichen patted Shangguan Nings unkempt hair. He treated her as if she were the most precious treasure in the world.
It is okay. I know who is helping and supporting her. Leave all of these things to me. Dont worry. They are aiming at Family Jing, not at you, so you are rtively safe. But you are pregnant with Family Jings offspring, my offspring, so they will try their best to stop the child from being born.
Shangguan Ning frowned and looked furious. I will definitely give birth to our baby safely. These people will not get what they want.
Having said the words, she said in distress all of a sudden, So Shangguan Rouxue and Tang Yun were always aiming at the baby? Good that Anan and Lu were there, something bad would have happened if I had been alone.
Jing Yichen chuckled and then said softly as he held her palm sized face, Alright, no more thinking. Just stay safe. Now, you are not alone.
As for Shangguan Rouxue, Jing Yichen was not going to let her slip away so easily.
She was in cahoots with Jing Yiran and Tang Yun and also had a deep connection with Yang Muyan, so she was a big threat. She was more dangerous rather than worth any value.
But since she was Yang Muyans girl, then Yang Muyan could deal with her on her own.
Jing Yichen sneered inside his heart. He was going to do Yang Muyan a favor and it seemed that she was going to get very furious.
Seeing that Jing Yichen was no longer so annoyed, Shangguan Ning pleaded as she tugged his sleeves, Honey, I want to see Anan, I am not sure how badly she is hurt. She bled so heavily just now, and it was so scary. Her face had turned white, I am worried about her...
Jing Yichen knew that she was asking him for a favor when she called him honey. She only did that when she was pleading to him.
He felt helpless. She still wanted to go and visit Zhao Anan after whatever he had said.
Anan is my cousin, of course I get worried when she is injured. Jing Yichen bit Shangguan Nings lips as a punishment. Well, whichever method he might use on her as punishment, he would hurt himself. So he had to bite her to warn her off.
But I mean it when I said that she wont die. Mu Qing is here. She is just slightly injured. He can get help her recover even if she is seriously injured.
Yes, I know Doctor Mu is a skilled doctor, but I cant be assured. I need to see her. Also, she is my best friend. How can I not visit her when she is injured?
Jing Yichen got angry when she said those words. He didnt want Zhao Anan to get injured, either. She was his only cousin after all and he needed to keep he safe.
But what Shangguan Ning didnt know was that Zhao Anan had beennding into trouble ever since she was young. She often broke her legs or arms and was too scared to go home after a good fight. Then her cousin, Jing Yichen, would be the one who took her in.
So Jing Yichen was used to that.
If Zhao Anan had known what Jing Yichen thought, she would me him for not caring for her after getting a wife. Shangguan Ning was not hurt at all and he was so nervous about her. But she had bled so badly and he felt nothing.
Finally, Jing Yichen nodded at Shangguan Ning and took her to meet Zhao Anan.
The emergency room of Family Mus Hospital was like an ordinary ward for Jing Yichen, who often walked in and out of it. So he walked in with Shangguan Ning where Zhao Anan was being treated.
There were no other doctors or nurses in the emergency room. Mu Qing had driven them out, possibly because he was cursing at her in a very mean manner.
....Are you an idiot? Are you stupid? You can even get attacked and injured by that woman who was shot twice in the leg and had bled so much? What a shameless thing! That de was mine. And you let others snatch it and ce it on your neck? Why dont you just stab me so I wont get annoyed?
I... I was not prepared, next time...
Next time? Next time I see that woman, I will kill her first!
Chapter 399 - Repay (Part One)
Chapter 399: Repay (Part One)
Mu Qing kept babbling whilst helping Zhao Anan with the wound, discreetly.
He wouldnt dare hurt Zhao Anan, however angry he was. Seeing that she was so badly injured, he med himself and felt heartbroken.
Zhao Anan knew that this was his way of showing his care for her otherwise he would not have scolded her.
She felt a bit sweet inside her heart, but she also felt a bit displeased.
Mu Qing would not stop once he got annoyed. He would only stop when his anger went away. She got irritated by his scolding.
All of a sudden, someone spoke up standing at the door. Zhao Anan turned her head and saw Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen walking in.
She was overjoyed C my saviors are here!
Dont move. I am dressing the wound. Now it is almost done. If you move, the bandage wille loose and I will have to redo it.
With her cousin and sister-inw behind her back, Zhao Anan was no longer afraid of Mu Qing. Dont do it if you dont want to. I can turn to some other handsome doctor, like the man you just drove off. He kept smiling at me. He seems very nice.
Mu Qing red at her after hearing what she said. Which good-looking guy? Lin Feng or Li Yi? Hang on, after I finish here, I will fire him.
There were many male doctors at Family Mus Hospital who looked handsome. And most of them wore sses.
Hearing Zhao Anan arguing with Mu Qing, Shangguan Ning knew that she was fine. She let out a sigh of relief and turned to Mu Qing. Doctor Mu, Anan is fine, right? I saw her bleed so much. Does she need rest?
Although Mu Qing was not being friendly towards Zhao Anan, but to Shangguan Ning, he still disyed his usual smile. She is lucky, and isnt going to die. Dont worry, Sister, havent you heard that a scourge could live for thousands of years. As long as she doesnt ask for death herself, she would not die.
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. She could tell that Mu Qing wasining about Zhao Anan courting death.
Scumbag Mu, what do you mean by scourge? I am the incarnation of justice! Zhao Anan sprang up from the operation table so abruptly that she ripped off the bandage from the wound making her grimace in pain.
Shangguan Ning went up to her and said, Anan, dont move around so much. You will bleed again if the wound reopens.
Zhao Anan smiled at her. I am fine, this is just a small thing, barely touched the skin. Goddamn Shangguan Rouxue! Never expected that she could be so courageous that she dared to hurt me. She will know soon how far can I go!
The person whom Zhao Anan was talking about, Shangguan Rouxue was sitting in a taxi now.
She was penniless and dressed in a patients clothes. The wound on her legs kept leaking blood, so did her face and the ear. She looked scary.
If she had not promised a double fare upon reaching the destination, the driver would not have agreed to take her.
Her destination was none other than Family Xie.
Before she came to find Shangguan Ning the previous day, she had already asked someone to send her child to Family Xie. The family must have done the DNA test and found out that Xie Zhuojun was the father.
Shangguan Rouxue had been living in the outskirts in a simplepound with terrible living conditions. She, who had been used tofortable and luxurious life, would never want to stay on in that ce. Therefore, she had made the n that she would go straight to Family Xie after the child was born.
Yang Muyuan used to have a good rtionship with her. But after what happened to Family Yang, the weirdo Yang Muyan didnt care about her at all. Instead, she ordered her around. If she did anything that didnt please her, the woman cut off all her economic resources so that she would starve whilst being pregnant.
Shangguan Rouxue had wanted to stay away from Yang Muyan because Yang Muyan had always been an excellent strategist who disyed her talent since she was young. Therefore, ordinary tricks could not fool her. If she ever did anything to trick her, she would be punished badly.
Shangguan Rouxue wanted to return to Family Xie. She was Xie Zhuojuns wife and now she had even had his baby. She was definitely going to live well at Family Xie.
Shangguan Rouxue had not had a good life after Family Yang was destroyed.
If she had not tagged along Yang Muyan and escaped with her through the hidden passage, she would have turned into ashes herself.
But now she was definitely going to live well. She was going to take revenge for her mother. She would force Shangguan Ning to plead for mercy on her knees before torturing her to death.
Upon reaching Family Xie, Shangguan Rouxue shouted at a servant as soon as she got off the taxi. I am Shangguan Rouxue, yourdy. Come and pay my fare.
Shangguan Rouxue looked pale and was full of blood stains. Her hair was unkempt and she was wearing a baggy patient outfits, lookingpletely different from the glorious and gentle Shangguan Rouxue. The servant couldnt recognize her at all.
But her voice sounded quite familiar. What was more, someone had sent a little Master home yesterday and it was said that the child was of Family Xies.
The servant didnt dare make the decision herself. She hurried into the vi and told Xie Zhuojun about the situation.
Upon hearing the servants words, Xie Zhuojun disyed aplicated expression.
Xie Zhuojun had believed that Shangguan Rouxue was already dead.
Because when that disaster struck Family Yang, Shangguan Rouxue had happened to be at Family Yangs and they had not heard from herself ever since then.
When he had heard about Shangguan Rouxues death, Xie Zhuojun was a bit upset. But after a while, he felt like a free man.
Although it was a cruel thought, yet Xie Zhuojun had been very disappointed by Shangguan Rouxue whom he never wanted to see again. Every time he thought of her, he would be reminded of how stupid he used to be. What a shameless thing when a woman could fool him in this way!
But someone sent him a child the day before and it was said that the boy was his son.
When Xie Zhuojun heard the news, he subconsciously thought that it must be a fraud. But that delivery man had sounded very confident and even asked him to do a DNA test, iming that he would regret for the rest of his life if he turned the baby away now.
Xie Zhuojun still experienced headaches. Sometimes he would get dizzy and feel nauseated. Therefore, he asked his mother Wang Lu to deal with the test.
But the result shocked Xie Zhuojun.
That child was really his!
Chapter 400 - Repay (Part Two)
Chapter 400: Repay (Part Two)
Wang Lu, however, got very happy after knowing that the child was her sons.
Because Xie Zhuojun had been to several hospitals for check ups and all the doctors had said that he was physically sick and it wont be possible to have any offspring in the future.
But when Xie Zhuojun got a son, then it meant that Family Xie had an offspring!
But the question was who was the mother?
From the timing perspective, Shangguan Rouxue was undoubtedly the one!
Xie Zhuojun had slept with other women only in thest two months. Even if someone was pregnant, then she could not possibly have given birth to a child so soon. What was more, he had already be incapable of being a father.
Xie Zhuojun had a feeling that he was never going to get rid of Shangguan Rouxue and that Family Xie was going to go crashing down.
He thought for a while and then walked out.
Xie Zhuojun paid Shangguan Rouxues fare and carried her inside. Although he didnt want to touch her, but Shangguan Rouxue was badly injured and had blood stains all over her, looking rather fragile. She didnt even want to move.
Shangguan Rouxue was very happy to see Xie Zhuojun again. Even her pain seemed to reduce a bit.
She called him by his name intimately, Zhuojun, I missed you so much. Did you miss me?
Xie Zhuojun didnt want to talk to her. But his heart softened when he caught sight of her being injured. So he asked, How did you get hurt so badly? Have you juste out of the hospital?
When this issue was mentioned, Shangguan Rouxue felt wronged. She didnt need to pretend anything when tears started to gush out of her eyes.
Sister didnt want to let me go. She wanted to ruin my face. She even shot me. If I hadnt escaped in the chaos, you would have never met me ever again. Zhuojun, sister is so cruel. She even found some helpers to torture me. Any wrong words from me would make me suffer. They almost chopped off my ear. Look! My ear is still bleeding. Zhuojun, please get a doctor here, I cant stand it anymore. It hurts so much.
Xie Zhuojun didnt trust Shangguan Rouxue easily any more after being in trouble for so long because of her.
He knew that soon everything would get back to the original point. He would still be in the same spot where he would have no idea what Shangguan Rouxue was thinking or if what she said was true.
He felt like he was getting suffocated by the lies all over again.
Xie Zhuojun started experiencing difficulty in breathing. His head got dizzy and the headache urred again.
He carried Shangguan Rouxue into a bedroom and let her lie down before calling a doctor to deal with her wounds.
Shangguan Rouxue must not die. She was his sons mother. However many mistakes she had made and however devious she was, she was still his sons mother. He mustnt allow his son to lose the mother not long after he was born.
The doctor arrived soon. Shangguan Rouxue passed out because of losing too much blood.
Wang Lu soon learnt about Shangguan Rouxues visit at Family Xies home. She left the selection of a nanny for her grandson, and hurried home immediately.
Shangguan Rouxue is a jinx. She caused her family to die and now she had turned her face towards her family. She was never going to be epted here.
The moment Wang Lu came home, she took Xie Zhuojun to the study where the mother and the son started whispering.
Zhuojun, you must drive Shangguan Rouxue away. She cant live here!
Xie Zhuojun paced back and forth in the study, furiously. Mom, easier said than done. She is the childs mother and we are a couple. We are not divorced yet. How can I drive her out? Also, she is badly injured at the moment and has nowhere to go. Should I let her sleep on the street? Then we will be the one to be med.
Then divorce her! Wang Lu hated Shangguan Rouxue so much that she didnt want her to ruin her sons life again.
She will get half of our properties if I divorce her. We arent doing well economically. We cant even pay the banks debts. We cant afford to give her any money.
Then what should we do? She is jinxed and cant stay at our home. Also, you have just got engaged with Min Jie who would immediately break off the engagement if Family Min gets to know about this. Min Jie is a good girl and her father is the principal of University X. We will get a huge order from the students to buy bedding. Our family is relying upon these orders.
Xie Zhuojun of course knew what condition was Family Xie in right now. But he had no options left.
He got both anxious and angry. He had lost any residual love which he may have had towards her. He hated her and wanted her to die right now.
She was, as Mu Qing had said, a scourge thatsted for thousands of years.
Shangguan Rouxue was a strong woman. She recoveredpletely and ate a hearty breakfast the following morning.
She had already tidied up when she saw Xie Zhuojun again.
She no longer looked messy, just pale and pitiful, and she cried as she told her story.
She med Shangguan Ning for all that had happened, including the early birth of the baby.
Xie Zhuojun couldnt stand it any more by the end of the story. He didnt believe Shangguan Rouxue any more. He didnt believe that Shangguan Ning would be so cruel as to get Shangguan Rouxue to give birth to a baby so early.
He wasnt sure about everything but he knew that Shangguan Ning had always liked children. He understood that Shangguan Ning was a gentle woman who would never involve an innocent child even if she was Shangguan Rouxues enemy.
Xie Zhuojuns heart skipped a beat when he thought of this matter. He shivered.
He suddenly realized that maybe Shangguan Rouxue made the childe out earlier by herself.
He had witnessed the scene when she had tried to bump herself against Jing Yichen. She didnt care about the child. She was just using him.
How could there be such a cruel mother in this world?
He had only heard that some young mothers could be cruel to their own children to the extent of even killing them. He always thought that those were just stories far away from his life. Unexpectedly, however, the woman whom he had loved for so long and so deeply, turned out to be the cruelest.
Why hadnt he figured it out sooner?
Why did it have to be Shangguan Rouxue who was his childs mother?
He had a strong feeling that his life was doomed!
Chapter 401 - Master Jing studying to become a Doctor
Chapter 401: Master Jing studying to be a Doctor
Jing Yichen soon received the message that Shangguan Rouxue had reached Family Xie.
Someone at Family Xie had always been reporting the situation to him, so he got to know thetest information of whatever happened there.
He called Tiger to his side and asked him to handle the matter.
Tiger hesitated. Master, we have no proof. Will Yang Muyan believe us?
Jing Yichen clicked the table with his long fingers as he said softly, She will, because she is a smart person and she will know what it means as long as you do as I say.
Tiger had always believed in his master. He hadnt been confident about the matter but when his master looked so confident, he felt assured.
He felt that it was he who was not sharp enough to follow in Masters steps. Yang Muyan seemed quite smart, probably as smart as Master, so she would know what Master was conveying.
Also, Master had been proficient at killing others through someone else, so no issues should ur this time.
Tiger bowed to Jing Yichen politely and left in excitement.
Jing Yichen walked out of study and saw Shangguan Ning leafing through a thick book regarding nursing children. She was sitting at the french window, listening to a soft melody.
He strode towards her and took Shangguan Nings wrist in his hand, feeling her pulse in a seemingly professional way.
Shangguan Ning was immediately distracted from the book. She turned to look at him.
She asked in astonishment, Since when did you learn to diagnose by pulse?
Jing Yichen showed a slight smile. Oh, I picked it up from Mu Qing yesterday, but I have been reading about it from before. I started to read medical books since you got pregnant and now I am almost a doctor. The only thing that I dont have is the experience, so I probably wont be able to save people or cure diseases yet.
Shangguan Ning knew that Jing Yichen could be conceited sometimes, but most of the time he was really humble. If he imed to know a little bit about something, then it basically meant that he had be much better than ordinary people. If he imed to be okay at something, then he had reached the excellent stage already.
Oh God, was there anything this man couldnt do?
It was unbelievable that he had learnt to feel the pulse within such a short time.
Jing Yichen felt her pulse and smiled broadly.
Shangguan Ning smiled and asked. Is your son healthy?
However, Jing Yichen replied seriously, Mu Qing will not be allowed to touch this beautiful wrist from now on.
Shangguan Ning almost fainted after hearing what he said. She pped the back of his hands.
You have got to be joking right now. Mu Qing is a doctor, Anans husband-to-be, your brother-inw. He is the most suitable doctor for me. Who else can be as good as he is? I cant go and bother Grandpa Mu all the time, can I?
Jing Yichen said with a smile without releasing her wrist, I am not joking. I might not be as good as Mu Qing in medical knowledge at the moment, but I can at least tell the condition of you and the baby by checking the pulse. I am not nning to be a doctor. This little skill is enough for me.
Having said the words, he sat down next to Shangguan Ning. Then he pulled her up to his thighs and flipped through the book together with Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning turned to look at Jing Yichen after reading for a short while.
This man was getting more and more handsome and made Shangguan Nings heart beat fast, whichever angle she looked at him from.
What was more, this man loved her to core. He studied night after night just to acquire skills to help her.
Love was reciprocal.
The deeper he loved her, the deeper she loved him too.
When they had gotten married, Shangguan Ning felt that they were near strangers. But as time went by, they became deeply connected with each other.
What is it? Has my face bloomed that you are staring at me like this? At this rate, your gaze might drill a hole in my face.
Jing Yichen still had his eyes upon the book when he said this to Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning snorted and thenughed at his words. But she soon gave him a kiss on his cheek.
She leaned forward to bite, leaving a mark on his chin. Then she leaned into his arms and started to read.
Jing Yichen nced at her and chuckled. Naughty girl. You really like biting me, dont you?
The couple spent a beautiful afternoon in each others arms. After lunch, Jing Yichen coaxed Shangguan Ning to take a nap.
When she fell asleep, Jing Yichen got up and went outside.
Lu had been here since the night before. Jing Yichen asked Lu toe in and keep a vigil next to Shangguan Ning because he was going out.
Actually, Jing Yichen knew that she should be safe right now. No one woulde and make trouble every single day. But he still needed Shangguan Ning to be protected.
One could never be too careful.
Jing Yichen talked briefly with Lu, went downstairs and drove to Family Mus Hospital.
Seeing that he was here again, Mu Qing pleaded. Master Jing, could you please leave me alone? I know that you are intelligent but you dont have to beat me down in this method, do you? Anyone else who is not smart enough would have killed himself by now.
Ignoring his pleading, Jing Yichen said softly, Dont talk crap. Start teaching me now!
Mu Qing took out a pile of medical books helplessly, ced them on the table and started to impart information Jing Yichen.
After an hour, Zheng Jing came there.
Mu, I am here to pick up Zhu Ruotong. She is getting discharged today.
Mu Qing showed a grievous expression in front of him. Brother, if I am ever out of food, you must keep me!
Zheng Jing was confused. He had no idea what he was trying to say.
Yeah? Your hospital is going to be closed? He said as he threw a look at Jing Yichen who was deeply engrossed in reading the medical books. Then he looked back at Mu Qing.
Mu Qing wiped off imaginary tears. You are indeed a sharp eyed policeman who has seen everything in one go. Look at Master Jing. He has started to study medicine! What job will I have after this? He is going to take over.
Chapter 402 - Real Love, Bro!
Chapter 402: Real Love, Bro!
Jing Yichen studying to be a doctor?
Startled, Zheng Jing strode to where Jing Yichen was sitting. He noticed that Jing Yichen was indeed reading medical books.
He found a chair and sat down next to him. He said smilingly, This is good. Then we can turn to Master Jing for any problems in the future. As for you... there is nothing that you can do if you are surpassed. You can live off your face rather than on your medical skills. That is not such a bad thing.
Mu Qing was quite pleased to hear what he said. His good brother was praising him for being good-looking.
But as he turned around and noticed Jing Yichens perfect side profile that looked better than even the superstars, he withered again.
Bro, stop teasing me, okay? Director Mu sounded depressed. He pointed at Jing Yichen and said hysterically, This is the man who can live off his face rather than on his talent. God, I am doomed! He is good looking and more intelligent than I am. And now he is working harder than me, that too, right in front of me. He is totally asking me to kill myself.
Zheng Jing could totally understand how Mu Qing felt because he had experienced this earlier.
Back at the military school, Jing Yichen had been a legend who had created records that could not be broken. It was a torment topare himself with him.
Heughed. Alright, alright, no more babbling. He is not a human! You dont need topare yourself with him. Remember to be a demon or monster in your next life, because you will always be below Master Jing if you are born a human.
When Mu Qing couldnt get consoled by his brother, he drank up an entire cup of water in fury as if trying to drown his sorrows in it. The scene looked so sad.
Oh, you said that you are here to get your girlfriend discharged?
She is no longer my girlfriend.
Ah? Mu Qing got startled and then smiled wickedly. Ha, you changed your girlfriend quite fast. You dumped her after a few days only. When will you make me meet your new girlfriend?
Zheng Jing shook his head and smiled. It was an amicable break-up. We are like brothers in-arms. Being with her is just like being with you. I cant kiss her, or I will feel that I am kissing you!
What Zheng Jing said disgusted Mu Qing.
What are you saying? What examples did you just quote? Have you got a PE teacher for your Chinese lessons?
It was just a metaphor. I am trying to say that Zhu Ruotong and I are good friends. I am not saying that I will kiss you. What are you so excited for? I am a normal guy. I like women, not some good looking sissy guy like you.
I dont like you either. You are the good looking sissy guy, no, you are the good looking muscr block!
Jing Yichen looked at the two men who were arguing and said, You both are indeed improving, arguing like a couple. Get out of here if you want to argue. Stop making noise here.
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing shut up the moment Jing Yichen spoke.
After they finished ring at each other, Mu Qing pped his forehead and whispered, Ah, your girlfriend was discharged yesterday. I just remembered!
Annoyed, Zheng Jing said in a low voice, Howe you forget such an important thing? Are you pig headed?
Why is it important? It was such a mess yesterday, my Anan almost lost her life! I was too frightened to care about your girlfriend.
She is not my girlfriend. Do your ears not work properly?
Zheng Jing said as he pulled his ears.
Mu Qing let out a painful cry and did the same to Zheng Jings ears. Zheng Jing let out a cry of pain too, despite being much stronger.
As soon as Zhao Anan entered the door, she saw that Mu Qing and Zheng Jing were leaning over the desk and pulling each others ears, staring at each other in a loving way.
She had a thickyer of bandage over her neck and had difficulty in lowering her head. So she walked to the table with a straight-back, and rolled her eyes at Mu Qing and Zheng Jing. She spoke in a surprised tone, You two are in love! What about going abroad? Gay marriages are not allowed here.
Mu Qing released his hand and cried out, I dont like him!
He immediately added. I like you, you are my true love!
Zhao Anan wanted to nod but couldnt do that anymore. She gave up and said, Oh I see, you are a bisexual!
Mu Qing got annoyed and was about to exin when Zhao Anan ignored him. She came to Jing Yichen. Brother, I need to check upon Tang Yun. Ask your men to step aside. They are guarding the door like deities. I cant get in!
Jing Yichen had his eyes upon the book and replied inposure without looking up. You can jump off the window if you find yourself bored with life. In that way, you will die faster. Otherwise Tang Yun might torment you before killing you.
Zhao Anan stomped her feet. I already said that I was careless yesterday so I didnt tie-up Shangguan Rouxue well. It will never happen again. I havent taken my revenge yet. Tang Yun almost killed me. She even wanted your sons life. Why are you not angry at all?
Zhao Anan realized something at this moment and pointed at Jing Yichen. Oh! Cousin, you still have feelings for Tang Yun, right? You dont want me to torment her. Ha, you have Ning and you still dare think about someone else. I will go to Ning and tell her the truth. I want her to divorce you.
Jing Yichen looked up and said coldly, Shut up! Always talking nonsense. You will get yourself beaten to death.
Despite what he just told her, he got up and said, I need to ask Tang Yun something. Tag along if you want to. But if you dare speak any nonsense in front of Ning, you will be grounded for your entire life.
Zhao Anan immediately changed her expressions and said with a broad smile, Yes, yes, I will definitely obey you. I will not speak any nonsense. You and my sister-inw are a match made in heaven. Tang Yun is just a piece of shit whom you would never think about!
Chapter 403 - Ten Year Fraud (Part One)
Chapter 403: Ten Year Fraud (Part One)
Jing Yichen nodded in satisfaction and walked out.
Zhao Anan was about to follow him when Mu Qing pulled her back. He frowned. Mydy Zhao, cant you just stop messing around for one day? Can you at least wait until your wounds on the neck are healed before going for another round? Do you think that you can get injured anytime you want just because you dont have to pay for the treatment?
Zhao Anan pulled her arms out from Mu Qings hands and red back. A person who works seriously, has to adjust to the situation. I cant just stay away from this because I am injured. That is not my style! I will take revenge and everyone will know what I am like. No one would dare to touch me in the future.
She told him authoritatively and ran after Jing Yichen.
Zheng Jing, who had found it strange to see Zhao Anan wrapped with bandages around the neck, found the situation even weirder after hearing their conversation.
Mu, what happened to Anan?
Mu Qing pulled him along as he said, Dont ask. She wanted to teach Shangguan Rouxue and Tang Yun a lesson. But she ended up being controlled by Shangguan Rouxue and even injured herself. Worse, she let Shangguan Rouxue slip away. Hurry up, lets see what she is doing over there now.
All four of them went to Tang Yuns ward one after another.
She was still in the storage room which Zhao Anan had made a lot of effort to set up. No one had agreed to shift her to another ward, despite her constant requests.
Her wounds had been cleaned and dressed. As a result, she looked slightly better today.
But the moment she saw Jing Yichen, she let out a cry. She started saying Brother Yichen and narrated every ill treatment which had been meted out to her till now. By the end of the tale, she said in tears, Brother Yichen, I know it is wrong of me to be jealous of Shangguan Ning, but you mustnt treat me so terribly. I saved your life. You would have died without me.
Jing Yichen stood still, listening to Tang Yuns cries without saying a word.
No one else said a word either.
Because they knew that what Tang Yun had said, was true. She had saved Jing Yichens life and he was grateful to his life savior, otherwise Tang Yun would have died ages ago.
However, the three men present were calm and poised. Mu Qing and Zheng Jing had Jing Yichen as the leader and they stayed silent like he did.
Zhao Anan, however, couldnt stay calm at all. The atmosphere was getting more and more depressing and Tang Yun was speaking in a reasonable way, making it sound as if Jing Yichen had been cruel towards her. So, she started to shout in annoyance.
You crazy woman, stop babbling! Your deed of saving my cousins life is already cancelled many times over by all those terrible things which you have done since then. You should have died ages ago. The only reason you are still alive is because of my cousin. Stop talking about saving my cousins life again and again.
Tang Yun was tied up by Zhao Anan the day before but the ropes had been loosened today because of the wounds.
She disliked Zhao Anan, so the moment she heard her talking, she stopped pretending to be a fragile woman. Instead, she sat up and bellowed, Shut up you maniac! What right do you have to cut in when I am talking with Brother Yichen? Get out of here, now!
Whatever Tang Yun had said earlier hadnt affected Mu Qing. But after hearing what she called Zhao Anan, Mu Qing got annoyed. But before he was able to react, Zhao Anan charged at the woman.
She pped hard on Tang Yuns face. Tang Yun wanted to strike back but she dodged her attack, agilely. Then Zhao Anan climbed up the bed and sat on Tang Yun, pressing her down hard. She started strangling her and scratching her face.
Tang Yun was even crazier than Zhao Anan. Not long after, both of them had blood on their faces and clothes were being ripped.
Mu Qing had wanted to pull Zhao Anan away from Tang Yun but he just couldnt get into the violent fight.
Luckily Zhao Anan was in an advantageous position which assured Mu Qing a bit.
However, Jing Yichens expressions changed suddenly after watching them fighting against each other for a bit. For some reason, he bellowed, Stop!
His voice was so scarily shocking that Zhao Anan and Tang Yun couldnt help but stop immediately. Both of them turned to him.
Jing Yichen, who had been calm and poised till now, was apparently in an unstable mood. The blue veins popped out of his forehead.
Zhao Anan had never seen Jing Yichen lose control in this way. She asked discreetly, What is it, Cousin?
Jing Yichen tried his best not to go up to rip off Tang Yuns clothes.
Ignoring Zhao Anan, he gazed at Tang Yuns chest as he said in a very cold tone, Take her top off!
All the other four people in the ward got startled. They had never expected that he would have put forward such an order.
Zhao Anan didnt think that her cousin really meant that in a lustful way, but she still thought that him seeing Tang Yuns body was improper. What if Shangguan Ning got to know about it? She would get upset.
She tried to persuade Jing Yichen. Cousin, she isnt that attractive, I...
Shut up! Do it now!
Zhao Anan got startled by his sharp voice.
She shrank back and swallowed down whatever she was about to say, stretched out her hands to unbutton Tang Yuns clothes.
She knew Jing Yichen well. She knew that he had gotten angry right now.
Tang Yun suddenly realized something which made her turn pale. She clutched hard upon her clothes, refusing to let Zhao Anan get close to her.
But Zhao Anan was not a weak girl. She was powerful no matter how strong the rival was.
She found it odd to make Tang Yun naked in front of the men. But when Tang Yun struggled hard, she got stimted and wanted nothing more than to get Tang Yuns clothes off at this moment.
Tang Yuns face changed tremendously and Jing Yichen got so irritated that smart guys like Mu Qing and Zheng Jing both knew that there was something wrong with Tang Yun!
Chapter 404 - Ten Year Fraud (Part Two)
Chapter 404: Ten Year Fraud (Part Two)
You are being a hooligan. Get off me, Zhao Anan, dont you dare touch me!
Tang Yuns face turnedpletely white, so did her lips. Large beads of sweat trickled down alongside her forehead and her voice turned hoarse within such a span of time.
Apparently, she was extremely scared of being stripped by Zhao Anan.
It was weird.
She was responding not out of humiliation but out of fright!
Even Mu Qing and Zheng Jing turned serious. Both of them were feeling that what they had guessed, was real!
Even a simple minded person like Zhao Anan found the situation weird. Tang Yun had emitted way too strong a reaction.
She was behaving as if she was going to be killed. If it had been Zheng Lun who was pure and innocent, it might have been normal to have such a reaction.
But Tang Yun was not that kind of woman!
Zhao Anan had known her for ten years. Tang Yun had stayed in America for so long. She had already been westernized in her mind and it would not bother her if she went out in a bikini or was seen by strangers.
Zhao Anan tried her best to fight against Tang Yun. She sat on her belly to make sure that she couldnt get up. Then she worked on her clothes as she cursed. Dont bother to think that you are a good looking woman. No one thinks so. I will strip you naked and see what secrets you have hidden within.
The three men stood there in silence. No one was helping Zhao Anan to take off Tang Yuns clothes, not even Mu Qing. They were all waiting for the result of their conjectures.
Zhao Anan was fierce. Although Tang Yun held tightly to the top, she still managed to rip off the green gown.
Zhao Anan instantly grabbed her hands and tried to pull them to the sides in force.
Tang Yun had been exposed.
She didnt look humiliated or annoyed. She looked desperate.
Tang Yun had an extremely pretty body. As the gown was ripped off by Zhao Anan, her sexy redcy lingerie was exposed, showing her wless skin and beautiful breasts.
But no one was appreciating her beauty.
Especially Jing Yichen who looked extremely cold and scary at the moment. He looked really intimidating.
The moment he saw Tang Yuns smooth and tender chest, he fell into an unprecedented darkness. His face was pale and the veins on his forehead nearly burst open. He tried his best to support himself as his fingers clenched hard into a fist.
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing exchanged a look and saw shock reflected in each others eyes.
A whileter, Jing Yichen said in a cold tone, Mu Qing, can the scar of a gunshot be treated in such a way that it looks that the person has never been shot before?
Mu Qing shook his head and said in a clear voice, Impossible! You have been shot as well and you know what kind of procedure is required if you dont want the scars to remain.
When I was extracting the bullet out of you, I tried my best to make the cut to the minimum degree and even used the most cautious technique of stitching. I used the top notch scar healer yet you still have a scar there. I might not be the best doctor in the world, but Family Mu is definitely one of the best in dealing with external injuries and scars. I am confident about it!
Having said the words, everyone in the ward turned to Tang Yuns chest which had no scar on it.
Actually, no one except for Jing Yichen had known where Tang Yun had been hurt. But when Jing Yichen ordered Zhao Anan to strip off Tang Yun, he had been looking at Tang Yuns chest. Anyone would have been able to understand that Tang Yun must have got the scar on the chest.
Zhao Anan realized what was going on. She was shocked as she sat on top of Tang Yun.
Jing Yichen underwent a short moment of loss of control before he went back to being cruel and cold, at least on the surface.
But inside his heart, he was totally blown apart and his heart was broken.
Tang Yun had no scar on her chest.
The gratitude which he had been feeling for the past ten years was destroyed within one moment!
Jing Yichen clearly remembered what had happened ten years ago. The scene when Tang Yun shielded him against the bullet was something he was never going to forget in his entire life. It was something deeply embedded inside his brain.
He had seen the bullet go through her chest!
He remembered clearly that the blood sshed on his face, his body and burned his heart.
In that dark period, it had been Tang Yun who had offered him a little bit of warmth and constion. She had been the only gleam of sunlight in his dark days.
But only now did Jing Yichen find out that the gleam of sunlight had been false.
There had been nothing in his past, only conspiracies! When he was tormented in an inhuman way ten years ago, he had almost died. And the culprit was right in front of him.
Funnily, he had been seeking her for ten years like an idiot. No matter what Tang Yun did, he had been tolerating it and looking after her.
She was an excellent actress, a smooth nner, a mastermind.
Jing Yichen was trying really hard not to punch Tang Yun to death.
For the past 33 years, he had never been deceived by an evil conspiracy for so long. He had been powerful, smart and cautious. He had honed his skills to analyze and observe.
But this was the biggest failure which he tasted after he became an adult.
He had never taken Tang Yun seriously. He had always thought of her as a girl who liked to devise plots because she liked him.
But she was the biggest liar.
He had found Tang Yun peculiar ages ago, but had not paid enough attention. He had been way too conceited. He had never lost a battle and never failed to solve an issue.
With a calm face and cold eyes, Jing Yichen looked so intimidating that Tang Yun did not dare to meet his gaze.
Chapter 405: My World Shines Because of You
Tang Yun, I will use whatever I have, to take revenge from you!
Jing Yichen spoke in a lethal way. The words he said seemed toe from the deepest corner of his heart, deadly and cruel.
You will not die. I will make you experience all possible kinds of brutal torture. Anyone who helped you ten years ago will be found by me. No one will escape my hands. They will all die a terrible death in front of you slowly and the torture that will be ten times more brutal than I experienced years back.
From now on, my revenge starts. I hope you will live long enough to see it. I dont think that you are going to die so soon especially when you have been trained well.
Tang Yun had turnedpletely pale. Her cheeks looked ashen and she seemed to have lost her strength to fight back.
The secret which she had kept for ten years, was exposed.
The n that she and her men had been cooking for dozens of years was destroyed.
Jing Yichensst remaining gratitude towards her was gone.
Tang Yun had always thought that she would realize her n with the help of the power behind her and would be thedy of Family Jing and gain control of Family Jing.
When that time came, she would no longer be scared if her secret was exposed.
But at this moment, it was all finished.
Jing Yichen turned around after he finished speaking and walked out.
When he came to the door, he said to the security who were standing there. No need to stand guard. Let her go.
The two bodyguards had no idea what was happening, but they obeyed and said, Yes, Master!
Jing Yichen strode out of the hospital, got into his luxurious Aston Martin and left for home.
He had been away for only two hours from home, but it felt that he had been away for centuries.
He opened the door and walked in.
Shangguan Ning had napped for half an hour and was wide awake.
Dressed in a white PJ, she was listening to a gentle luby whilst standing in front of the ceiling-to-floor window, massaging her belly and talking to the child in her belly.
Baby, this is your mom. Dad and I love you a lot. I hope you are a good baby, a good boy who will grow up and share your dads burden.
Jing Yichen felt tears gushing out.
Shangguan Ning was the only woman who cared about him, loved him and cherished him.
There was no other woman in this world who loved him so deeply.
She was his real and eternal sunlight!
Luckily, he had made this choice right from the start.
Luckily, he never felt a thing for Tang Yun and had been rational enough to not allow Tang Yun to hurt Shangguan Ning, irrespective of his gratitude towards her.
Jing Yichen walked towards Shangguan Ning. In order not to startle her because of his sudden appearance, he made some sound on the way so that she would know that he was back.
Sure enough, Shangguan Ning turned around after hearing the sound. Then she stuck her tongue out at him in a cute way.
Jing Yichen wrapped his arms around her waist and held her in his arms.
The warm sunlight in the afternoon shone in through the ceiling-to-floor window upon Shangguan Nings beautiful, warm face.
Jing Yichen held her tightly in her arms, and felt the coldness reducing little by little. He no longer felt as upset as he had been, sometime back.
The woman in his arms could always console his bleak heart, warm up his frozen body and make him feel loved.
Ning, I love you!
Jing Yichen sounded slightly hoarse. Shangguan Ning, could instinctively feel a change in his emotions.
She turned around to face Jing Yichen. She held his face in her palms as she became anxious at the sight of his bleak eyes. What is going on, Yichen? What happened?
Shangguan Ning never restrained her emotions. She had no need to conceal her emotions in front of Jing Yichen.
Therefore, Jing Yichen could tell clearly how worried she became.
He liked that Shangguan Ning was simple and innocent and that he could feel her heart and read her mind.
He didnt need to guess a thing. Nor did he need to ask about anything.
Jing Yichen lowered his head and dropped a kiss upon her forehead. He felt calm and under control now.
He wouldnt let the shadow of his dark past fall on the woman he loved. He was used to bearing the pain on his own.
What happened in the past had nothing to do with Shangguan Ning. He could deal with everything by himself within no time.
Baby, I am fine. I just learnt that someone has been deceiving me for a long time and I was quite upset about it. But now that I have seen you, I am fine. I feel happy as long as you continue to smile at me.
Shangguan Ning had no idea about who had made this powerful man lose control.
She didnt ask anything more. Instead, she caressed his cheek with her hands gently and said in a soft tone, Silly, it is normal to be scammed. You are a human too and it is already great that you have tasted only one fraud. I have been through many and I am still fine, right? Also, I am leading a much happier life than most of those liars because I have got you. And you have me. We will be fine.
Shangguan Ning paused and gazed right into Jing Yichens eyes as she whispered. I love you so much, Yichen. Nothing else matters as long as we are together, we will be very happy.
Jing Yichens heart was moved. He couldnt help but take one of her hands, put them on his lips and kiss it. He said, I know.
It is because of you who loves me deeply and stands by my side that I have not fallen into the deep abyss.
I am still living in the sunlight and can feel the warmth. You are my sunshine!

You are a human too and it is already great that you have tasted only one fraud. I have been through many and I am still fine, right? Also, I am leading a much happier life than most of those liars because I have got you. And you have me. We will be fine.
Shangguan Ning paused and gazed right into Jing Yichens eyes as she whispered. I love you so much, Yichen. Nothing else matters as long as we are together, we will be very happy.
Jing Yichens heart was moved. He couldnt help but take one of her hands, put them on his lips and kiss it. He said, I know.
It is because of you who loves me deeply and stands by my side that I have not fallen into the deep abyss.
I am still living in the sunlight and can feel the warmth. You are my sunshine!
Chapter 406 - The President Is Absent
Chapter 406: The President Is Absent
The following morning, Shangguan Ning got to know about the fraud which Jing Yichen had mentioned the previous day.
Neither Jing Yichen nor Mu Qing nor Zheng Jing told her. But Zhao Anan wasnt someone who could keep a secret.
It was still early when Shangguan Ning received Zhao Anans call.
It was already a miracle that she could withhold the secret the entire afternoon and night before she made the call to Shangguan Ning about such an enormous matter.
After hanging up the phone, Shangguan Ning got upset and rxed at the same time.
She was upset that Jing Yichen had treated Tang Yun as someone who was true to him, who had protected him and regarded his life as something important. But the result turned out to be totally different. The truth was that she had lied to Jing Yichen and everything had been her n, starting from the shooting, her disappearance and her return, ten yearster. Jing Yichen had been a part of her n for so long. A proud man like him would find it hard to ept the truth.
What made Shangguan Ning rxed was that Jing Yichen no longer needed to feel guilty about Tang Yun. He owed her nothing anymore.
Jing Yichen had been lying beside Shangguan Ning, so he heard the general content of what Zhao Anan told her, although he couldnt catch every single word.
So now you know it all?
His voice was a bit hoarse as he had just woken up. He sounded sexy.
Shangguan Ning put down the phone, and clung to him as she said softly, Yes.
Jing Yichen smiled and said, Now you know what a huge blow I have just received. Do you think that my wife should console me and my fragile heart?
Shangguan Ning could sense his flirty intentions. She looked up all of a sudden and blinked. Didnt I console you yesterday?
Jing Yichen grabbed her smooth hand to feel the lower part of his body as he whispered in her ears, I mean, this kind offort, I want something much deeper...
As Shangguan Nings fingers touched something hard, she flushed and said with clenched teeth, Jing Yichen, you are turning really bad these days. I am a pregnant woman, how can you ask me to...
She couldnt continue any more. She was embarrassed.
I have always been very bad, you know that by now. I have lost the benefits I ought to receive ever since you got pregnant. You mustpensate me somehow.
Shangguan Ning blushed and looked at him in anger. She opened her mouth and bit one of Jing Yichens nipple.
Jing Yichen suddenly got ted after being bitten by her. He pushed hisrge hands into her PJ and grabbed her plump breasts and started to massage them gently. Then he said in his sexy voice, Baby, why do I feel that they are getting too big for my hands...
Shangguan Ning bit him even harder, making Jing Yichen let out a moan.
He flipped over and pulled Shangguan Ning under him. Baby, you are testing me. I am not going to be kind...
No, no, what if we hurt the baby?
Jing Yichens kiss stopped what she was about to say. She wanted to push Jing Yichen away but her body reacted in the opposite manner as she started to kiss him back subconsciously. Before she realized what it was going on, she had already been kissing Jing Yichen for a long time.
Jing Yichen feared that he would put too much pressure upon Shangguan Ning, so he turned and ced her on top of him. He ced one of his hands securely around her slender waist and pulled her earlobe between his teeth. All went wellst time, didnt it? We wont hurt the baby. Also, dont move around, or I will....
It was a warm and beautiful autumn morning. Shangguan Ning had discovered long ago that Jing Yichen liked doing the most intimate thing early in the morning. But she tended to feel very bashful in the daytime.
Jing Yichen was trying to be gentle and soft, making Shangguan Ning feel as if she were burning. She wanted to get closer and closer to him.
She felt that all of her organs were on fire by Jing Yichens kisses and caresses. Soon she reached her peak.
Jing Yichen smiled indulgently and carried her to the bathroom.
Shangguan Ning couldnt escape the intimacy in the bathroom as well. Jing Yichen didnt let go of her until she was thoroughly ravished.
After the bath, Shangguan Ning changed into a set offortable sportswear, so did Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning barely saw Jing Yichen dressed in sportswear after knowing him for so long. He was always dressed in office clothes. Shangguan Ning found men in white formal shirts irresistible and Jing Yichen was especially attractive dressed like that. But Shangguan Ning thought Jing Yichen was even more handsome dressed in white sportswear today.
He had an excellent body, was tall and muscr and looked good in all kinds of clothes. He looked aristocratic even in the simplest sportswear.
Jing Yichen turned around, only to find his woman staring at him, enchanted. He went up to her, lowered his head and asked with a smile, Your husband looks very handsome, doesnt he?
Shangguan Ning gave a small push to his chest and snapped. Yes, but he is just a bit self-obsessed!
True, but someone seems to be more obsessed about me than I am, otherwise she would not have bitten me so hard.
Jing Yichen said as he pulled away the cor of his top to show the mark on his shoulder.
Shangguan Ning flushed. She liked biting him when they were doing intimate things and often left marks on his body, which was something Jing Yichen often showed off after they finished making out. That was a way for him to prove that she was badly into him.
Shangguan Ning was used to his teasing, so she didnt react much.
When she saw his shoulder, she was tempted to take another bite. But she pressed down her impulse, fearing that she would stimte him once again. So she started to fiddle with the zipper on his clothes as she said softly, Why are you dressed like this, today. Are you not going to work?
He had not visited thepany for days. Was he going to be a fatuous king who would abandon the empire for the beauty?
As soon as this thought came to her, Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. She felt that she might have thought too highly of herself.
I am going to have fun with you today. It is important to keep a pregnant woman happy. I have already dealt with whatever needed to be done,st night. I am the president and can be absent whenever I want to. No one would dare to say a thing!
Chapter 407 - You Have the Say (Part One)
Chapter 407: You Have the Say (Part One)
When Jing Yichen said that he was going to have fun with Shangguan Ning, he really went out and did that. He brought her to a famous undersea world in A City.
Shangguan Ning had been to the waterworld many times with her uncle when she was young. But she had not been to this ce after she grew up.
Jing Yichen, however, had never been to any undersea park. He spent his childhood immersed in all kinds of tests and challenges. He had never had any fun.
The water world had not changed much, but many new and beautiful sea creatures had been added. She roamed around, hand in hand with Jing Yichen in excitement.
The waterworld was located underwater with various colorful fish and corals floating around. When the visitors were standing in the middle, they felt as if they were surrounded by the blue sea with the fish swimming around them.
Shangguan Ning had been here twice, yet she still felt astonished and cheerful on this visit.
She slowly walked through the undersea channel and pointed at various kinds of fish and called out their names excitedly. Jing Yichen also showed a small smile after being infected by her cheerful mood.
They stayed next to each other and looked like a couple in love.
Jing Yichen did not know much about sea creatures. That made Shangguan Ning tremendously confident.
Wonderful, there is something which you dont know about!
Shangguan Nings eyes reflected a sense of happiness and pride.
Jing Yichen smiled indulgently. He didnt think that not knowing about some random fish would be something to be embarrassed about.
I thought that you only knew that fish is our food. But you even know that they have their own names. Seems that you are a true seafood lover.
Shangguan Ning blinked as she stared at the fish swimming in the water. Can they be used for food? Well, they are so cute, it would be a pity to cook them.
Jing Yichen burst outughing. His fingers rubbed against her cute nose. I am just joking! Do you really want to eat them? These fish are for show, not for food. What a glutton you are! People might think that I dont feed you well at this rate.
You are not allowing me to eat anything. Take the sour plum soup, for example. And I want to eat hawthorn pastry too. You really dont allow me to eat anything.
That is not true. You have to be careful about what you eat given the state you are in. You can me our son when he is born. I have nothing to do with it!
The coupleughed and talked as they went through the undersea world. They even ended up going for the mermaid show in the middle. Shangguan Ning asked Jing Yichen to stay and watch the entire performance together with her, in excitement.
Many people were gathered around for the show. Many people, especially women, refused to leave after the show was over.
Shangguan Ning had not yet noticed that everyone was standing still. But soon she realized what was going on.
Those girls were all staring at Jing Yichen!
They looked extremely excited and some even flushed, acting coy.
Look at that man. He is so good-looking! Is he some kind of star?
Wow, he is better looking than the stars!
His girlfriend is really lucky to have such a good-looking boyfriend. Can she ever control herself?
I want topete with his girlfriend. Dont you think that I can beat her? I am also pretty!
...
The sound of discussions grew louder and louder whilst Shangguan Ning, who was Jing Yichens wife and was standing next to him, was totally ignored. They were all out for her man.
What an intolerable thing!
Shangguan Ning cleared her voice, held Jing Yichens arms and shouted in a sweet yet raised voice. My husband....
Jing Yichen looked extremely cold being stared at by the women around him. But he smiled when Shangguan Ning called out to him. What is it, my wife?
Oh, husband, I am just thinking that we can name our son Little Fish. Look, these fish are so pretty and our son will definitely be better looking than them.
She said as she massaged her belly softly, telling these she-wolves that this excellent man was her husband, not her boyfriend and that they already had a baby on the way. These women needed to stay away from her husband.
Was there any mother who wouldpare her son with fish? Did the mermaid show go to her head?
Little Fish...
Would the other one be called Flower if she had been pregnant with twins?
Wife, you are so good at choosing names! If our son ever gets to know about your naming him so randomly, then he will not want toe out.
Jing Yichen argued inside his heart, yet a gentle smile hovered over his face. He held her waist and walked forward, speaking indulgently, Of course, any name you want, as long as you are happy, you have the say at home!
The couple showed off their love as if no one was around, making the group of women stand astonished on the spot.
So the couple was married! They were still deep in love after they got married. That was why they had misunderstood them.
But was it really proper to show off their love in front of so many people? Those women were still single!
Shangguan Ning didnt care about them. She had been unhappy when someone was aiming at her husband. If she was not happy, then no one else was allowed to be happy!
But her method worked. When those women surrounding Jing Yichen knew about their marital status, they left in disappointment.
The majority of people with a traditional ethical idea tended to have strong self-control.
Besides, judging from Jing Yichens look, he apparently loved his wife deeply and had no eyes for anyone else.
But that made him even more charismatic. It could be seen clearly that he was a responsible man who took great care of his wife during her pregnancy rather than turn around to look at any other woman.
Chapter 408 - You Have the Say (Part Two)
Chapter 408: You Have the Say (Part Two)
Some girls walked away, looking defeated and reluctant.
Why did such an excellent man never happen to cross their lives?
Shangguan Ning red at these girls and had her arms over Jing Yichens as if fearing that he would be taken away.
Jing Yichenughed loudly and walked out slowly with her.
They had spent more than two hours inside. He wanted to take her back to the car to rest, worrying that Shangguan Ning might have gotten tired.
Are you tired, baby? Do you want to go home or stay here a bit longer?
Shangguan Ning said instantly, Of course I am tired. How could I not be? I have used all my energy to re at these women. They would have died if my looks could kill. Are the girls nowadays so bold and over enthusiastic? I am standing right next to you and they are thinking about throwing themselves at you. Will they end up being in your arms if I am not here with you?
Sigh, my wife is jealous. I can feel the sourness even at this distance. Will I get punished for this?
No, I am too kind and also it is not your fault to be this good looking.
Shangguan Ning had suddenly put on a look of being kind and understanding, but Jing Yichen looked at her warily C this wasnt her style! She wouldnt be so tolerant. When Shangguan Rouxue had barely touched him, she pped her right on the face, with full strength!
Sure enough, she said with a smile the following moment, But it is your fault to instigate these girls by being a good-looking man. You can stand with your knees bent, on a durian tonight!
When did I instigate women? Jing Yichen felt likeughing. But he held it back. I didnt even look at them. You are wrongly using me. My focus is on you only, and am under your control.
Hmm, that sounds right. Shangguan Ning giggled proudly. Of course she knew that Jing Yichen would not fall for those women. She had just been a bit jealous when her man was being stared at, by others.
They walked around for another two hours before she got a bit tired. It was already lunch time.
You must treat me to something good to console my mind and soul, otherwise me and the son will report you for mistreating us.
No problem. I can treat you to anything you want!
Then I want to eat hot-pot!
That doesnt work, choose something else!
I want to eat sugar-coated hawthorns!
That doesnt work either, choose something else!
.....
Shangguan Ning could not think of anything else that she wanted to eat by the time they got into the car.
Are you trying to starve me and my son when you forbid us to eat anything?
Jing Yichen smiled and said, You only picked those things which a pregnant woman should not eat. That is not my fault.
Shangguan Ning red back at him and then thought of the western restaurant Victoria, which belonged to Zhao Anan. So she said cheerfully, Lets go to Anans restaurant to eat beefsteak!
Finally, Jing Yichen nodded and smiled. Okay, lets go and eat beefsteak. We can revisit the ce where we had our first date.
Shangguan Ning thought so too.
Victoria was the ce she and Jing Yichen had met for the first time. It was a special ce for both of them.
Also, Jing Yichen was driving that same silver Aston Martin which had left a deep impression on Shangguan Ning when she had seen it for the first time.
Back then, she had assumed that Tiger was the owner of this sportscar.
Shangguan Ning felt her heart beating fast when she thought of their first meeting. She still remembered Jing Yichens cold look. Looking back, those were wonderful memories for her, now.
When you moved into Landscape Compound that time, I had seen manyrge trucks parked down below. I had thought that those things were meant for several people and not one.
Jing Yichen got slightly startled. You knew when I moved in?
Shangguan Ning smiled and said cheerfully, Yes, I was out for a morning jog and ran into Tiger. He was standing right next to your car and giving directions to those men. At that time, I thought that Tiger was the owner. I never expected that he was working for you.
But I remembered your car since it was the only one of that kind here in A City. I recognized it the moment I came to Anans restaurant. But I didnt match the owner to the car at that time.
It was a wonderful world where you couldnt dodge what was supposed to happen.
They had not known each other for even one year and their lives had be intertwined before merging into one.
With one hand on the steering wheel and the other holding Shangguan Nings hands, Jing Yichen listened to her talking about the initial impression which he had left upon her and their first experience together.
Actually, he felt much more emotional than Shangguan Ning.
There had never been a woman like her who walked into his life like this and now was there to apany him in all the four seasons, just like the warm sunlight that shone.
He had thought that he would die alone.
After knowing Shangguan Ning, his frozen world of ck and white started to recover and was thronged with shining and splendid colors.
Shangguan Ning was an outgoing woman who liked talking andughing. She was simple and pure and had given him afortable feeling even during their first meeting. At this moment when she was babbling about the things which happened in the past, the silent car was filled up with her scent and cheerful voice.
....Good that Anan told me about you being cold and arrogant before our meeting. It seems that only I could stand your distant behavior back then.
But you were so good looking and it was okay if you were cold. I treated you as a statue so the meal went well.
I had thought that you were not a suitable man to spend my life with. I had been forced on that blind date by Anan. Oh yes, she told meter that she got a pocket money of 100,000 yuan from her mother to set me up with you.
Jing Yichen had not known that Zhao Anan used to earn money by making use of him. He burst intoughter after hearing the words. Only 100,000 yuan? How unworthy you must have been. But it seems that you are happy to have been sold by her.
Shangguan Ning med Zhao Anan for this and now she was teased by Jing Yichen too.
But she was very happy and grateful indeed!
Had it not been for Zhao Anan, she would not have met Jing Yichen!
I am not in a disadvantageous status after being sold by her. I have done well. Look at me, I have got a husband like you. I have your house, your car and your savings, everything is mine!
Chapter 409 - An Encounter with the Old Acquittances
Chapter 409: An Encounter with the Old Acquittances
The couple talked andughed as they drove to Zhao Anans western restaurant.
Since it was lunchtime, there were many people in the restaurant. Jing Yichen spotted a parking slot in the crowded parking lot and was about to drive in when another car rushed in, intending to take his ce.
Jing Yichens face sunk. He rushed forward and parked the car right on the spot in an intimidating way.
He and Shangguan Ning walked out of the car.
With Shangguan Nings hands in his, Jing Yichen threw a cold look at the extremely aggressive ck Cayenne.
The owner of the Cayenne cursed as he got out of the car, but was startled at the sight of Jing Yichen. Then he looked at the luxurious Aston Martin as well as the conspicuous number of A12345. He froze in fright.
The middle aged man no longer looked aggressive or arrogant. He lowered his head courteously. Greeting Master Jing, I didnt know that it was your car. I am so, so sorry to have offended you. Please, forgive me, I will never do that again.
He was just apologizing in a low position when Shangguan Ning looked at the man surprisingly. She called out his name in an uncertain tone. Principal Min?
Min Feng looked up and his eyes widened at the sight of her. Shangguan Ning!
Family Min was not a very powerful family in A City, but was an aristocratic family in the neighborhood. They had a lot of business dealings with Family Jing. Although Min Feng had never seen Jing Yichen, he had heard about Jing Yichen numerous times from the leader of the Family and knew that he drove an exclusive and expensive sports car with a special number. He vaguely knew about his general appearance as well.
But the leader of Family Min had never heard of Jing Yichens wife. What he knew was that Jing Yichen, who never had a girlfriend before, loved his wife very much and kept her protected. She was a mysterious woman.
Min Feng saw Shangguan Ning holding hands with Jing Yichen and leaning against him so intimately. They must be close!
Could Shangguan Ning be the wife of the famous Jing Yichen, thedy of Family Jing?
That news shocked Min Feng enough to drop his mouth in astonishment.
Last winter, it had been him who fired Shangguan Ning from the school in person!
Min Feng was none other than the principal of University of X, Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anans boss. When Guo Shuais incident happened, Shangguan Ning had been framed as a teacher who seduced students, so he fired Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan from the school immediately.
Min Feng sweated even more. The leader of Family Min had reminded him many times that any conflicts with anyone else in A City could be handled, except for Jing Yichen. If he or Family Jing were ever irritated, he would not get any protection from Family Min.
Jing Yichen didnt know Min Feng but was not surprised to know that the man knew him. But he was surprised that Shangguan Ning knew this man in front of them.
Shangguan Ning introduced him to Jing Yichen, instantly. This is Min Feng, the Principal of University of X. He used to be Anans and my boss.
She sounded very unfriendly. Jing Yichen knew her well and could sense her irritation at this moment. So he frowned.
Finally, he was reminded of what had happened. Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan were fired by University of Xst winter and Zhao Anans cancer returned post that. So she went to Germany for treatment whilst Shangguan Ning went to Jingsheng.
When Min Feng didnt return to the car, the rest of the people seated in Cayenne walked out as well.
There were four of them and Shangguan Ning knew all of them because they were the lecturers and professors of University of X, who used to be her colleagues.
They knew Shangguan Ning too. Due to the incidentst winter, she had be a famous figure amongst the teachers, one who was talked about, for a long time even after she was fired.
These people didnt know who Jing Yichen was but that didnt prevent them from guessing his true identity. He had a super luxurious sports car plus a special number, and he looked charming. Therefore, he must belong to an extraordinary family.
What was more important was that Principal Min was behaving so courteously in front of him.
They knew something about Min Fengs family background and knew that he feared nothing. They had never seen behaving in such a polite way in front of a young man.
Therefore, they smartly greeted Shangguan Ning in a friendly way.
Long time no see, Shangguan. You are getting more and more beautiful!
Where are you working now? The students miss you so much. The principal spoke so highly of you just a couple of days ago and said that you were so capable and he wanted you back in the school.
Very true, Shangguan, we all miss you. Last years incident must have been a misunderstanding. Those students have already been punished fiercely.
Have you gotten married, Shangguan? You should have asked us to the banquet. So this is your husband? So handsome. You look cute together.
Someone looking from the outside would get a feeling that Shangguan Ning had a very close rtionship with these people.
But only Shangguan Ning knew that this was all fake.
They were never that close!
Also, they were so good at making up lies. Min Feng had fired herst year without a reason. It was an absolute lie that he wanted her back in school.
But acting was not a difficult thing to learn. She had picked up many acting skills from the queen of acting C Shangguan Rouxue!
Shangguan Ning spoke in a friendly way, You all look really nice. Thank you for your concern. It is indeed a long time since we saw each other. I can treat you guys to a meal sometime. I was just startled by Principal Mins actions just now. Sorry for being so timid!
She sounded very friendly, but everyone present instantly understood that she was being sarcastic.
But she was wearing a smile on her and no one could pick on anything that she said. After all, it sounded logical.
Jing Yichen threw a cold nce at everyone and then turned to Min Feng as he said in an emotionless tone, My wife was startled. You better stay out of my sight, or someone else will take over University of X.
Having said the words, he turned around and walked into the restaurant with Shangguan Ning.
Min Feng and his fellows stood frozen on the spot.
They had never expected that Jing Yichen could be so arrogant, much more than even Min Feng!
Someone asked discreetly, Principal, who is this man, how...
How could he ever threaten to fire you??
Min Feng wiped off the sweat on his forehead and said nothing. Instead, he asked them to get into the car and drove off in an irritated mood to look for a restaurant elsewhere.
Min Feng dare not say anything about Jing Yichens identity.
When they saw that he wasnt saying anything about him, they understood that he must be an extraordinary person.
If they ever ran into Shangguan Ning in the future, they would behave even friendlier than they did today!
Chapter 410 - The Sweet Memory
Chapter 410: The Sweet Memory
Shangguan Ning had no idea what Min Feng and the others were thinking. She had no interest in knowing about it. After all, they would not need to meet each other in the future, so she forgot about their encounter soon enough.
But Jing Yichen kept Min Feng in his mind.
Maybe it was time to get a new principal for the school.
Jing Yichen stole a look at his wife who apparently didnt take Min Feng and his fellows seriously and started to think about letting Shangguan Ning be the principal instead?
Well, better not let her get exhausted. After all, she treated everything seriously and if she became the principal, she would definitely put in a lot of effort into it.
But Zhao Anan was always free. Maybe she could be the principal instead. In that way, she could be restrained and help lead a disciplined life.
But Jing Yichen didnt consider the fact that Zhao Anan could turn the school upside down.
The couple walked into the restaurant and it turned out that the elegant room of Romance was avable.
Zhao Anan had hired a professional manager to operate the western restaurant, otherwise Victorian would have been shut down if she had been the manager.
The manager and the waitresses didnt recognize Jing Yichen, but they all knew Shangguan Ning as their bosss best friend. Therefore, they all showed a friendly face, gave her a discount and offered them some small desserts.
Shangguan Ning smiled brightly, and said in a proud tone after the waitress walked out. See, I am very famous!
Jing Yichen shook his head slightly and said smilingly, Yes, your face works better here than mine.
They smiled looking at each other.
The decoration and ornaments in the elegant room were still the same. The European style ssic red chairs, the white rectangle food table as well as the fresh lilies on the table and the candles were all there, ced in the exact same way as they had been, thest time.
They ordered the exact same thing as they didst time, not because they wanted to be reminded of their first encounter, but because they both liked Sirloin beefsteak.
Shangguan Ning had a habit of sticking to the things which she found tasty. She would even visit the same restaurant and eat the same food and use the same things if she found them pleasant.
That she liked sirloin beefsteak had been her habit for years. So she would not choose anything else whenever they ate at a western restaurant.
Jing Yichen had noticed this habit of hers. He even joked that it was a symbol of longsting love.
Both of them were full of emotions sitting here once again.
They had never expected that they would get married or even be friends on their first meeting.
The best thing that Zhao Anan has ever done in her life is to introduce you to me.
Jing Yichen picked Shangguan Nings hands and ced them on his lips. His melodious voice pierced straight into her heart.
Shangguan Ning had a bit of a smile on her face too. That is why even I am happy despite the fact that I was sold. But, judging from your expression, you must have been forced by her to take this blind date with me as well.
Jing Yichenughed and said softly, Yes, the two olddies at home and my aunt had been worried about my marriage. They all thought that I was physically ill or preferred men when I had no girlfriends even in my 30s. So they kept testing me in different ways. Even when I was abroad, they would ask different kinds of women to knock at the door of my house.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help butugh when she heard the story. She was not jealous.
Jing Yichen must have gotten very annoyed back then. But she knew that Jing Yichen didnt like being touched by anyone else and didnt want others to disturb him when he was working.
They had already got several women ready for me as blind dates the moment I returned home. But I met no one except for you. It must have been our destiny.
Jing Yichen, who always spoke highly of himself and his own ability, suddenly believed in destiny. That was a very surprising thing for him and for everyone around.
People of Family Jing were always taught to be the master of their own destinies. Jing Yichen, the excellent heir of Family Jing, never believed in destiny or God, only in himself.
Except when it came to Shangguan Ning.
He always thought that his encounter with Shangguan Ning was meant to happen.
Even if Zhao Anan had not introduced her to him, they would have still met each otherter. Huang Lihan had introduced Shangguan Ning to Jing Zhongxiu who sent her to Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning, however, had always believed in these intangible things. They met for the first timest winter here and now when they were here again, she was already pregnant with their little baby.
Shangguan Ning smiled. Yes, you married me after being only on one blind date. Now there are three of us!
The couple were immersed in the memory of the past. They were still talking about the past cheerfully when the beefsteak was served.
Life was full of different vors. Some were happy and cheerful, some were agonizing and furious.
In a vi located on the north side of A City, Shangguan Rouxue was currently lying under Yang Muyans feet.
The beautiful face which Shangguan Rouxue had always been proud of, had been totally ruined by Yang Muyan. But Yang Muyan was still furious and angry.
Trampling Shangguan Rouxue fiercely, Yang Muyan kept exerting even more pressure, so much that the crushing sound of broken bones echoed across the otherwise silent vi.
Shangguan Rouxue screamed. She wanted to plead for mercy, but Yang Muyan gave her no chance. Instead, she kept stomping upon her with her high heels.
Did you think that I wont be able to find you just because you are hidden in Family Xie? Haha, Shangguan Rouxue, I can find you even if you were in hell. I will drag you out and toss you to the deepest corner of hell myself. I am more powerful than you think!
Yang Muyan had an abnormal redness over her pale face. Her face was twisted and her ck eyes were full of resentment and fierceness. Her hoarse voice made her sound like a ghost who sucked life out of people.
Shangguan Rouxue had no idea what was going on. What she knew was that the moment she had woken up, she found herself in this empty vi. Then, Yang Muyan had started to hurt her like a maniac. She didnt cease until her face swelled up badly.
Chapter 411 - Outlaw
Chapter 411: Ouw
No matter how much Shangguan Rouxue pleaded or acted pitifully during the process, Yang Muyan kept pping her face.
After a while the pping stopped. Shangguan Rouxue drew in a breath and thought that the nightmare had hopefully ended. What she didnt realize was that this was just the beginning.
Yang Muyan brought out a sharp de and started shing it across her face.
The blood gushed out and the wounds which she was making would probably challenge the most excellent stic surgeon in the world, also.
Shangguan Rouxue struggled hard. But it didnt help. Yang Muyan worked even harder on her.
At the beginning, Shangguan Rouxue addressed her as cousin. Butter she started to call her by the name in a fierce and cold voice.
Yang Muyan, you are a mad woman. Why are you ruining my face? Is it because you are so ugly yourself? Everyone in your Family Yang deserves more than death.
Yang Muyans hands had swelled up after pping Shangguan Rouxue for so long.
But she didnt care about her bloated hands. Instead, she red at Shangguan Rouxues ruined face and said hoarsely, Everyone in Family Yang has died. But why did they die? You and your mother are the cause. Do you think that your family deserves anything less than death? Hahaha, let me tell you, your father Shangguan Zheng was killed by my men. Didnt you always think that Shangguan Ning was the one responsible?
Shangguan Rouxue had thought that Shangguan Ning killed Shangguan Zheng because one of the two men whom Yang Muyan sent to protect Yang Wenshu died at Shangguans residence whilst the escapee imed that Shangguan Ning forced Yang Wenshu to die and kill Shangguan Zheng.
Yang Wenshu caused the death of Family Yang by making use of us to deal with Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning. But she was having a good time abroad. That was why I did Family Jing a favor, otherwise they would not have found her so easily and brought her back.
Yang Wenshus hoarse voice echoed in the vi, revealing many things that Shangguan Rouxue had no idea about. She got increasingly irritated and hated this woman more and more in her heart.
Shangguan Ning also thought that she forced your goddamned mother. Haha, how ridiculous! It had been I who forced her to die. I had bought your servants and they tortured Yang Wenshu for three days before she had no choice but to kill herself. All Shangguan Ning did was C provide a knife!
Family Yang is ruined and she suffered so little before she died. How lucky for her! Had Shangguan Ning not jumped in, I would have made her suffer more. Well, it doesnt matter now. You are still alive, arent you?
Blood kept trickling down Shangguan Rouxues face. Her body felt shattered and she felt pain with every breath she took.
She spat out a mouthful of blood and stared at her in hatred. You can kill me if you dare to, Yang Muyuan, else I will kill you if you dont kill me today.
Yang Muyan smiled at her. You want to die? Sorry, I will absolutely not allow you to die! Who else should I torture and extract revenge from, for the grudge I have had for the past many years?
What do you mean?
What I mean is that you poisoned me because of which I got stinky pustules on my face for years. I had no face to meet anyone!
Shangguan Rouxue was in so much pain that she almost lost consciousness. But she still objected. I have nothing to do with it. You got sick and you couldnt be cured. I have never drugged you.
Yang Muyuan stomped hard upon Shangguan Rouxues tender white fingers and then crushed them against the hard floor until her fingers were bloody. Only then did she let out a sigh offort.
For seventeen years, you bitch, for seventeen years you have made me live in hell. I havent seen a normal version of myself since I was 13 years old. Had Family Yang not been ruined and I was forced to escape, I would not have recovered.
Yang Muyan caressed her smooth skin softly. After she left Family Yang, the pustules on her face disappeared gradually. She soon discovered that she was getting more and more beautiful.
That was the only thing that cheered her after Family Yang was destroyed.
She had received a letter the day before which carried a secret that shocked and angered her. She had been wearing a terrible face for seventeen years not because she was physically sick or suffering from endocrine dyscrasia but because she had been drugged for years.
Nothing else was exined in the letter except for these lines of words. But Yang Muyan believed those words immediately.
She was a smart woman and possessed a high IQ.
It didnt matter who wrote her the letter. What mattered was that Shangguan Rouxue and Yang Wenshu were the ones that drugged her.
Shangguan Rouxue, you are stupid enough to try and fight against me. From today on, you will live with a ruined face. You will lose everything and live worse than a dog. As for Family Xie, if they try to defend you, hehe, they will soon lose their economic resources and be beggars in no time.
Yang Muyuan noticed that Shangguan Rouxue was staring back at her with naked hatred. But she didnt care about it. She sneered and said, You want to take revenge? Come on then. Thanks to you I am the only one left in Family Yang. I fear nothing! I am an ouw and am only living to take revenge.
The first thing that greeted Ji Bos eyes the moment he came home was C bloodbath. Shangguan Rouxue was lying on the ground covered in blood whilst Yang Muyan wasughing wildly. She held a blood stained knife in her hands.
Ji Bo had caused many people to die before, but he never did the deed himself. He hadnt even seen so much blood ever. He had been educated traditionally and had a normal perspective towards the world. He was not extreme and most of the time, he was a gentleman except when he came face-to-face with Jing Yichen.
He was psychologically strong and used devious methods and conspiracies. But he never tortured people for fun and was not mentally distorted like Yang Muyan.
So the moment he entered the room and saw the scene, Ji Bos face paled and he vomited immediately.
Chapter 412 - Poisonous Drink
Chapter 412: Poisonous Drink
Yang Muyan nced at Ji Bo and sneered. How useless! Cant even stand this scene. What can you achieve in your life?
Ji Bo bellowed as he still felt nauseous. Lan Yu, this is my home! You can kill whomever you want outside, but never do that disgusting thing in my house.
He knew who Yang Muyan really was, but he never called her by her real name.
Dont worry, I wont kill in your house, I am just giving a little punishment to someone who once tried to kill me. As you see, I can do things which you cant ever imagine. So, you better think about us getting married soon.
Yang Muyan was facing Ji Bo and standing against the window. As the sunlight shone through the curtains, her silhouette was blurred and her face was hidden in the shadow, making her look eerie and twisted.
And her hoarse voice made Ji Bo extremely ufortable.
Yang Muyan had chosen to torture Shangguan Rouxue in the house on purpose, so that Ji Bo could see the scene of blood and cruelty and get intimidated by it.
I have promised to marry you. What more do you want?
Hands against the wall, Ji Bo tried to bnce himself. His handsome and elegant face was full of disgust and rage.
Yes, you made the promise, but I have not seen you taking any action till now. I want to marry you as soon as possible. But you are taking things too slow. So, I thought I would provide you with some stimulus.
Ji Bo knew that he had no way out the moment he agreed to cooperate with Yang Muyan.
But he had been confident enough to think that he would be able to control Yang Muyan and demolish Jing Yichen to take over Family Ji.
But the reality had torn apart his dream. He was not only cornered by Jingsheng but also got backstabbed by Family Ji, losing the majority of power. He had now be a fish on Yang Muyans cutting board, waiting to be ughtered.
He had known how poisonous Yang Muyan could get, but still continued to cooperate with her so that he could use her power to acquire Family Jis shares and to take the seat of President. He wanted to dere war on Jingsheng.
Leaning against the wall, Ji Bo got increasingly numb. He sat down slowly on the floor as he asked with clenched teeth. When do you want to get married?
Tomorrow!
That is too soon. Everyone will think that something is wrong with this marriage.
It is a marriage with problems. Many marriages are full of problems! What I want is a formtion. I dont care about what other people think of me.
No way, it is impossible to get everything ready by tomorrow. We need at least a month.
I will give you three days. Three dayster, you must marry me. But today, we will go and register ourselves. After the registration, I can help you be the President of Family Jis Enterprise. But I wont do it if we dont go today. Think about it!
Ji Bo had never expected that he would have to get married in this way.
He had known that he couldnt possibly marry a woman he loved. So he always kept his emotions suppressed and stopped himself from getting attracted to anyone.
Love was a luxury which he couldnt afford.
Falling in love with a woman would be the biggest weakness of a man.
Jing Yichen was a typical example. Before he married Shangguan Ning, he had beenpletely invulnerable. He had no breaking point. But after he married Shangguan Ning, she became his biggest weak point.
It was almost impossible to deal with Jing Yichen, but it was much easier to deal with Shangguan Ning!
You must lose something if you want to get something.
You could get something if you lost something.
Jing Yichen was losing something when he was getting something.
Whilst Ji Bo got his biggest support after he lost the chance at love.
After a long silence, he finally spat one single word out. Okay.
That very afternoon, Ji Bo and Yang Muyan went to the Civil Affairs Office for registration. They registered themselves as a married couple with Lan Yus identity card and household registration.
Three dayster, a grand wedding was held at Family Ji.
It was a hurried affair with little preparation. But Family Ji was powerfully rich, so when lots of money was spent, the wedding still turned out to be decent.
However, the olddy of Family Ji and Ji Bos parents were not very cheerful at the wedding.
It had happened too quickly and the bride had an ordinary family background. Apart from being weird, the bride looked like a patient and sounded like a crow, making everyone around feel ufortable.
No one knew about Yang Muyans real identity. No one had seen her before. But the fact that she could marry the elder master of Family Ji, the second richest family in A City, proved that there was more to her than was visible on the surface.
Although all guests were whispering behind their backs, the couple looked totally normal. They had a smile on their faces as if they were deeply in love with each other.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning had been invited for the wedding as well. But they didnt show up.
Jing Yichen would never bring Shangguan Ning in front of Ji Bo voluntarily. He was already being kind to not destroy the wedding.
Although the invitation had been sent out, Ji Bo never wanted Jing Yichen to attend his wedding. Because if he ever did attend, he would end up being the centre of attention. The headline of the next day would not be about their wedding but about the mysterious president of Jingsheng Enterprise who had attended the function.
Jing Yichen had already predicted that Yang Muyan would marry Ji Bo because only in this way, Family Ji would be her biggest bay and Family Jing would not be able to touch her so easily.
But Jing Yichen was not as docile as she had thought. If he couldnt do it himself, he could still get someone else to deal with Yang Muyan.
She was Family Jings enemy and was devious and evil. She needed to die!
Shangguan Ning had no idea about Yang Muyan, but as sheid down on Jing Yichens thighs and stuffed orange slices into her mouth, she said confusedly, That Lan Yu and Ji Bos marriage is definitely peculiar. She must be ady of a hidden family. Otherwise Ji Bo wont be marrying her. He likes women with connections. He wont marry anyone who is not capable of helping him in some way.
Chapter 413 - Out of Family Jing (Part One)
Chapter 413: Out of Family Jing (Part One)
Jing Yichen had not expected that Shangguan Ning would be able to see through everything so easily. He smiled and said, Maybe he has found true love and does not care about her family background.
Impossible.
Shangguan Ning put a slice of orange into Jing Yichens mouth and blinked. Ji Bo has had many girls running after him, some on campus, models, stars, all of them were beautiful and full of charisma. But he didnt say yes to anyone simply because none of them could help him in his career. He always aimed at finding a fitting partner C he only wanted a girl from an influential family, irrespective of her appearance.
Jing Yichen finished the orange, leafed through the medical book and said inposure, You are right. He has married ady from a wealthy family, even if the family doesnt exist anymore. That Lan Yu is actually Yang Muyan, the eldestdy of Family Yang.
Shangguan Ning was startled and burst out. Lan Yu is Yang Muyan?
She had heard about Yang Muyan. As a matter of fact, everyone in Family A knew about Yang Muyan but the person she had met didnt fit her description.
Jing Yichen recounted the story to Shangguan Ning in brief and she was shocked.
He told his wife the truth because he wanted her to stay away and protect herself against that woman. Shangguan Ning may have difficulty in dealing with Yang Muyan as Ji Bos wife in the future, if she really came to Shangguan Ning for something.
The couple were just talking when Jing Yichens cell phone rang.
He picked it up and the Butlers voice came through. Elder Master, could youe home right now? The Old Master wants to drive Second Master out of Family Jing and the olddy is protesting against it. She is even hitting the old Master! The Old Lord is still at Lord Mus residence and I dare not inform him about this.
Jing Yichens face turned cold after hearing this. He said, Got it. I will be there soon.
Shangguan Ning had got a general idea of what happened. She sat up and said with a serious face, Yichen, let me go with you.
Jing Yichen hung up and said gently to her, No need. Wait for me at home. I will be back soon.
He was worried that Shangguan Ning might get hurt if Jing Yiran went crazy.
It was ok for anyone to get hurt except for Shangguan Ning at the moment!
He didnt want her to take any risk.
Jing Yichen got off the bed, changed and kissed Shangguan Nings forehead as he consoled her, Dont worry, all will be fine. Stay at home and be safe. Lu and Lee Duo are both outside. Call them if you need anything.
Shangguan Ning nodded but felt uneasy seeing him walk away.
Howe Jing Yiran was being driven out of Family Jing?
Jing Yiran went scot-free when Shen Lingbing was killed. What happened suddenly that Jing Zhongxiu wants to give up on Jing Yiran,pletely?
Jing Yiran had been involved with what happened in the vi a couple of days ago. But he was discreet enough to stay away from Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan. None of those dead men belonged to him. They were all there on behalf of Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue.
Therefore, Jing Zhongxiu couldnt me him without any proof. What Jing Zhongxiu had done was to confiscate one of his properties and he was not really that furious.
After all, he was not the culprit. He was just a participant.
Jing Yichen came to Family Jing with Tiger, within no time.
It was very intense in the living room, with Jing Zhongxiu standing right in the middle and a clear handprint visible on his face.
Apparently, Mo Lan had pped him.
Blood was oozing out of Jing Yirans lips. He was lying on the ground whilst Mo Lan was crying hard with him in arms.
Ran, are you alright? Dont scare me, say something!
Jing Yiran felt that Jing Zhongxiu had shattered his inner organs. He was about to say something when he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Mo Lan got so frightened that her face paled. She said as her lips trembled. Butler, call the doctor. Ran is seriously injured.
Jing Zhongxiu said coldly, No need, just let him die!
The Butler stood frozen. He didnt know whom to obey.
The Old Master and the Old Lady were giving contradictory orders at the same time. He didnt know whom to follow. He dared not carry out anyonesmand.
Hopefully he had made the correct decision to get Jing Yichen here.
Jing Yichen walked into the living room and everyone present there just looked at him briefly before getting back to the explosive situation.
Ran is your son! Talk, dont hit! He is made of flesh, not iron. He has been hit by Chen ever since they were young and now you are hitting him too. Are you forcing him to die? You are hitting me when you hit Ran. I raised him!
Mo Lan held Jing Yirans head and cried hard. Her eyes had swelled up.
If Jing Yiran had not been so seriously hit, she would not have pped Jing Zhongxiu. She was really annoyed.
Jing Zhongxiu looked at Mo Lan and Jing Yiran coldly. He couldnt control his anger anymore.
He bellowed furiously, I only have one son C Jing Yichen! You brought Jing Yiran into this world and raised him. I have nothing to do with it. From today on, he will be out of Family Jing to never return. He is not a Jing. He will not be allowed to keep the name.
Why cant my grandson be called Jing? No matter what mistake he has made, he will be my grandson forever. He will always be a part of Family Jing. If you want, you can go out of Family Jing. Anyone who touches my Ran will die with me!
Mo Lan got furious too. It was impossible to throw Ran out of Family Jing!
Where would Jing Yiran go if he didnt stay in Family Jing?
How would he survive if he was driven out of Family Jing?
He would beughed at and demeaned by everyone in the society!
Jing Zhongxiu was extremely furious today. He had enough respect for Mo Lan but at this moment, he cared about nothing.
Mo Lan had never considered his feelings. She had only asked him to do everything ording to her will and forced her decisions on him even if it agonized him.
He respected Mo Lan but there was a limit!
You are my mother, but you cant make decisions for Family Jing. I am the master of Family Jing and when I say that this bastard is going to leave, thats final. As for me, only my father has the right to drive me out of Family Jing. You dont have a say!
Chapter 414 - Out of Family Jing (Part Two)
Chapter 414: Out of Family Jing (Part Two)
Mo Lan got so startled and annoyed by what Jing Zhongxiu said that her voice and hands started trembling with anger as she spoke. You... you dont have any regard left for me now, do you? Yes, I dont have the family name, but I am your mother. I gave you life! Is this how you talk to me now? What was the point of bringing you in the world then? Are you wishing for Rans and my demise right now?
Jing Zhongxiu was even more furious than Mo Lan at the moment. He wanted to punch Jing Yiran to death. He would have given him a fatal kick but was able to hold back thanks to his legendary self-control.
He still had a touch of sensibility left in him otherwise he would have killed this son of his by now.
But he was sure that he didnt want Jing Yiran to appear in front of him ever again nor did he want him to stay at Family Jing, any further.
His birth had been a big mistake!
If he was not driven out of Family Jing now, Jing Yiran would ruin the family sooner orter!
I have always respected you and have never said anything improper. Jing Zhongxiu stared at his mother. Right now, his heart was colder than his expression. He respected his mother due to their rtionship but he didnt have a strong bond with her like a mother and son should have.
It hadnt been deep enough to begin with but after his wife, Zhao Qing died, Jing Zhongxiu barely even spoke with Mo Lan. As a result, their rtionship worsened day by day.
But it is different today! I want this bastard out of Family Jing, but you want to throw me out of Family Jing instead. I have done nothing wrong and you have no right to drive me away. I am simply speaking the truth. You are not qualified enough to drive the heir of Family Jing out of the family, whether it is me or Yichen. But if you try and stop me, I do have the right to throw you out of Family Jing.
Mo Lans heart trembled when she heard his words.
Nonsense! Mo Lan shouted. Are you starting a rebellion? You are doing whatever you want because you hate us both. If you are angry about Zhao Qings death, then just hold me responsible. It was my fault. Ran had nothing to do with it!
Jing Zhongxius face changed when Mo Lan mentioned Zhao Qing.
Even Jing Yichen who was standing behind Mo Lan became alert. His eyes were like frozen chips of ice.
How dare she mention his mother?
His mother would not have died if she had not acted willfully at that time.
Zhao Qing lived as the agony in the deepest part of Jing Zhongxius heart. No one dared to mention her name in front of him. Jing Yichen had gotten pped by him because he mentioned Zhao Qing when they argued about the inheritance some time back.
To make matters worse, Mo Lan was the one responsible for Zhao Qings death!
With fingers tightly clenched together, Jing Zhongxiu tried really hard to control himself.
You know very well how Qing died. I dont hate you, but myself for not killing Zhang Rong at that time. I have always taught Yichen that he should be ruthlessly decisive, but I myself failed to be one. Otherwise, this situation would not have arisen. My mercy towards her back then caused my wifes death and made my son lose his mother. Due to this, Family Jing was torn apart!
Jing Zhongxius anger burst out like a volcano. He no longer tried to conceal his real emotions. Instead, he said coldly, Now both me and my son are walking corpses. We are zombies without emotions. Are you happy now? Hehe, it is not your fault, it is my fault. I cant me my mother as a son now, can I?
The meaning behind his sarcastic words was clear to everyone in the room.
Mo Lan had always felt guilty because of Zhao Qings death. But at this moment, she was just irritated with Jing Zhongxiu which superseded her guilt. Her motive was to protect her precious grandson from being driven out of Family Jing.
She showed her most intimidating side and said in a loud voice, That is history. I can leave if you want me to, but Ran must not leave Family Jing. He is a part of this bloodline and will always be part of Family Jing.
It had been she who brought up the past, but now she didnt want it to be mentioned anymore. Her words were bing more and more unreasonable.
Jing Zhongxiu sneered. I have already told you that I am the man of the house, not you. This bastard must go out of Family Jing because I will not tolerate a traitor like him! Also, I will get back every small thing that belongs to Family Jing. And he is going to be left with nothing.
Jing Yichen had no idea about what was the issue until he heard Jing Zhongxiu calling Jing Yiran a traitor. He frowned and then looked at a pale faced Jing Yiran who stood inplete silence.
Jing Yiran felt Jing Yichens gaze at him. He looked at him, showing a touch of irony and fierceness before looking away.
Jing Yichen frowned even more.
He found his expressions strange under the circumstances.
Before Jing Yichen had time to think deeper, Mo Lans words shocked him.
Why must you be so fierce towards Ran? He just sold some shares. Why is it such a big deal? Chen has enough shares to control the entire enterprise. Selling a few shares wont pose any threat to him. Family Jing wont copse because of this. You are just exaggerating!
Jing Yiran had sold shares of Jingsheng?
How dare he!
And Mo Lan was still saying that it wasnt a big deal?
Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan had spent so much effort in building Jingsheng.
Of course Jingsheng would be affected if Jing Yiran sold 20% of thepanys shares. It would be the biggest weakness of Jingsheng.
Jing Yichen pulled Jing Yiran out of Mo Lans arms without hesitation, threw him on the ground and crushed him under his feet.
Chapter 415 - Out of Family Jing (Part Three)
Chapter 415: Out of Family Jing (Part Three)
Whom did you sell the shares to?
Jing Yichen looked shockingly scary. He had more or less guessed who the buyer was, but he still wanted to hear it from Jing Yirans mouth.
The shares of apany should never be transferred at ones whim, otherwise thepany would be weak. More importantly, the shares should never be transferred to a rival, otherwise a catastrophe would arise!
Mo Lan had not expected that Jing Yichen would suddenly attack Jing Yiran. Seeing him on the ground and being treated so mercilessly, she felt her heart ache. She instantly went up to Jing Yichen to stop him.
Chen, release your brother. He has already been injured by your father. He cant suffer anymore. You will kill him!
But she was no match against Jing Yichen, who had one foot upon Jing Yirans stomach and other on his foot. To top it, he was totally indifferent towards Mo Lans emotional plea.
Jing Yichen stared at Jing Yiran coldly as he repeated himself. Whom did you sell the shares to?
Jing Yiran felt that his inner organs were getting squeezed and blood started to ooze out of his mouth.
But as long as he could annoy Jing Yichen, he would bear any amount of pain.
Seeing him stay silent, Jing Zhongxiu tried hard to press down his anger and said, To Family Jis Enterprise. Now Ji had 20% shares of Jingsheng Enterprise. They are the second biggest shareholders after you.
Jing Yichens heart stopped beating for a moment.
He had just won a battle against Ji Bo by instigating the heirs of Family Ji, making Ji Minjue sign a contract that put them in a disadvantageous position. But now, the situation had been overturned.
So Family Ji had 20% shares of Jingsheng?
What did that mean?
It meant that 1/5th of the business empire that generations of Family Jing had built painstakingly, had been given to Family Ji on a tter.
From that moment on, there would be 20 million yuan given to Family Jing for every 100 million which Jing Yichen earned.
Goddamn it!
Jing Yiran had dealt them such a huge blow, silently.
It was already so hard to retrieve the properties of Family Jing which Jing Yiran had sold earlier. Now this seemed to be a near impossible ask to retrieve the 20% shares.
Now that Ji Bo had gotten hold of the shares, he would not let it go easily. Family Jing would be restrained by Family Jis Enterprise to arge extent.
Jing Yichen withdrew his foot slowly from Jing Yirans stomach.
He was worried that he would stomp Jing Yiran to death if he lost control.
Jing Yiran, you have just given a wonderful wedding present to Ji Bo! Jing Yichen said in such a menacing way that Mo Lan shivered. For a moment, she forgot to help Jing Yiran get up.
Ji Bo is very greedy indeed! But was it so easy for him to get 20% shares of Jingsheng? Family Ji does not have so much capital to buy those many shares.
Jing Yichen looked down at Jing Yiran from amanding point of view. His eyes disyed his killing intent.
Jing Zhongxiu also gazed at Jing Yiran in an indifferent way.
He had just gotten to know that Jing Yiran sold the shares to Family Ji through the highly ced spy whom he had nted in Family Ji. In order to get this information out, the spys cover was blown now. He would not be able to pass on any confidential information to him in the future.
A lot of time and energy would be needed to cultivate a new spy.
All Jing Zhongxiu knew was that Jing Yiran sold the shares to Family Jis Enterprise. He had no idea about how much Family Jis Enterprise had paid him for the shares.
The man who had checked Jing Yirans ount informed him that he didnt have any record of receivingrge amounts of money.
Jing Yirans expression didnt change at all. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and refused to say a word.
Mo Lan got really concerned seeing his condition. She didnt care how much money Jing Yiran got by selling the shares. After all, Family Jing had enough money. What she cared about was that her grandson was at the verge of dying.
Butler, get the doctor. What are you waiting for? We are not paying you to watch the show!
The Butler bowed to her courteously and said in a low voice, The doctor is on the way.
For whatever reason, Jing Yiran needed to stay alive and the Butler knew that well. Jing Zhongxiu would not want the Second Master to die no matter how irritated he was.
The doctor came with two assistants within no time. They carried Jing Yiran away on a stretcher.
Jing Yiran would surely die due to intensive bleeding if he was not treated at the moment.
Mo Lan left with Jing Yiran and doctor, leaving Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen alone in the living room.
I will handle this, Dad.
After a long moment of silence, Jing Yichen spoke calmly.
He had not run into such aplicated issue in a very long time. On most asions, he was the winner because his rivals were many levels below his capabilities. Even Ji Bo, the publicly acknowledged young intellectual, was not a match against him.
But this didnt scare Jing Yichen. Instead, his mind was already racing, thinking about the countermeasures calmly after the moment of rage had passed.
That was how Jing Zhongxiu had trained him. He was always full of confidence and never bowed down in front of difficulties. He never said never.
Jing Zhongxiu also calmed down. No one could change his decision. Jing Yiran was definitely going to be thrown out of Family Jing!
He felt a bit gratified seeing Jing Yichen in front of him.
His two sons were so different from each other, with Jing Yiran fooling around and splurging and Jing Yichen inheriting all of his excellent genes. In the past years, he had umted invaluable skills C he was stable, calm and stronglybative. He didnt possess any of the terrible habits of those rich children. Instead, he was blessed with the sturdiest personality and a brain to rival anyone in the world.
Jing Zhongxiu had no qualms about assigning the problem to Jing Yichen.
Okay, I will leave it to you. If you need anything from me, tell me at any point. Your grandpa and I will stand behind you.
Jing Yiche nodded inposure. I can handle this alone. No need to trouble you and grandpa.
Chapter 416 - Out of Family Jing (Part Four)
Chapter 416: Out of Family Jing (Part Four)
Dont be in a hurry to grab the shares back since it has already happened. You are still in charge of Jingsheng and Family Ji wont dare to take any radical actions without proper consideration. First of all, freeze all of that bastards ounts and confiscate all his properties. Make sure that he does not have a single penny to spend.
Jing Zhongxius face was frosty.
He was confident enough to deal with the outsiders. But Jing Yiran should be removed first. They couldnt kill him but he could be made to face economical difficulty.
Also, if your grandma ever gives him anything, get it back too. He must be penniless. He is not allowed to touch anything of Family Jing!
Jing Yichen was nning to do the same. He wanted to take away everything from Jing Yiran, otherwise he would fight against Family Jing with all his might, putting them in a disadvantageous position.
Although Mo Lan had several properties in her name but they all belonged to Family Jing. It was not against thew if Jing Yichen took those properties back.
Also, tell grandpa about this incident. Go to Family Mu tomorrow morning and tell him that I have thrown this bastard out of Family Jing.
Jing Tianyuan must be informed about Jing Yiran being removed from Family Jing and also the reason for it.
Jing Yichen nodded lightly, Okay, I will go to Family Mu tomorrow.
Take Ning with you. Grandpa must not be stimted too much. He will be happy to see Ning and wont react too angrily with her being around.
Since Jing Tianyuan was residing in Family Mu, Grandpa Mu would alwayse handy if anything happened to the Old Lord.
Jing Zhongxiu didnt think that his father was so fragile. He was much stronger than himself and what happenedst time was simply an ident. But he didnt want to take any chances. He tended to be fine till the point Mo Lan started irritated him.
Jingsheng Enterprise had been developed little by little and properties umted and passed down from one generation to the next. Jing Tianyuan didnt care about Jing Yirans spending habits. What he cared about was that some precious old things from the ancestors would be gone forever once sold, such as those valuable calligraphy, paintings and antiques.
Jing Yichen had not expected that Jing Zhongxiu would ask him to take Shangguan Ning along for this reason. Slightly startled, he replied, Okay, I will visit grandpa with Ning.
In this way, he could also ask Mu Wensheng to feel Shangguan Nings pulse and learn something from Mu Wensheng in the process.
The father and the son talked some more about the mess before wrapping up the conversation. They were certain that Family Jing was still in the leading position despite all that had urred.
Jing Yichen walked out of the vi and Jing Zhongxiu called the Butler to his side.
After a short moment of silence, Jing Zhongxiu said calmly, Throw Jing Yiran out of Family Jing tomorrow morning, no matter how serious his injury is. Publicize to the outside world that he is no longer my son, nor is he the Second Master of Family Jing. From tomorrow on, he is not allowed to enter Family Jing. Anyone who lets him in would be thrown out with him.
The Butler responded in a low voice. He knew that there was no turning point in this matter.
Even he as the family Butler had gotten so furious that his limbs trembled when he heard about Jing Yiran selling the 20% shares of Jingsheng to someone else. He could imagine Jing Zhongxius feelings.
Family Jings three generations had built it up slowly. Each one of the shares was worth a great deal of money and importance. But Jing Yiran sold them without even a seconds consideration. Did he even consider himself as a part of Family Jing? Why did he keep doing stupid things that put the family into a bad position?
If he could give away 20% shares of Jingsheng today, he would give up the entire Family Jing tomorrow. All Jing Yiran needed was the right temptation.
Therefore, it was wise to remove Jing Yiran from Family Jing!
Stop the Old Lady if she stands in the way but make sure she is not hurt. You dont have to bother reporting to me about this part.
Jing Zhongxiu told the Butler indifferently because he knew that Mo Lan would certainly intervene when she sees Jing Yiran being driven out of the Family.
Sure enough, Jing Yiran was taken out of the vi by force the following morning. That made Mo Lan extremely irritated and furious.
But no one paid attention to her rage. Those people only obeyed Jing Zhongxius order strictly as they were his men.
They respected Mo Lan as the Old Lady, but their loyalty was with Jing Zhongxiu.
Jing Yiran had a lot of internal injuries and Doctor Jian said that he would need to stay in bed for at least one month otherwise moreplications could arise.
Jing Yiran felt agonized with each step he took. The hatred inside him increased tremendously. He wanted to ruin Family Jing so badly!
He had never expected that Jing Zhongxiu would get to know the truth right away about the shares transfer.
Family Jing had got insiders in Family Ji, even at the top levels of Family Jis Enterprise.
Jing Yiran knew that once he was exposed, Jing Zhongxiu would get immensely furious and that he would possibly be driven out.
But he had not expected that it would happen so fast.
Now he would have no way to pass on any information to Ji Bo if he was not part of the family. And his n with Ji Bo about getting rid of Jing Yichen would not work out, as well.
Also, Ji Bo was getting more and more aggressive. He used to be at least polite earlier but now he was simply ordering him around.
He desperately needed to control Ji Bo and thankfully had some other methods even though he was no longer part of Family Jing.
Chapter 417 - Making Him Poor
Chapter 417: Making Him Poor
When Jing Yichen returned home that night, Shangguan Ning was waiting for him anxiously.
The dinner had beenid in the dining room, but she hadnt touched anything.
Why havent you eaten yet? Jing Yichen held her hands and took her to the sink, where he washed her hands.
I was waiting for you!
Shangguan Ning liked it a lot when Jing Yichen washed her hands and treated her as a treasure.
Jing Yichen had especially bought some good soaps from abroad that could kill bacteria and keep the hands smooth and fine, but more importantly, they were suitable for pregnant women.
Silly girl, why did you wait? No more waiting,e and eat quickly.
Wherever he was or whatever he was doing, he knew that there was a woman waiting for him at home anxiously, just to share a meal with him.
That was what home felt like.
No, I cant eat alone. It feels lonely.
Shangguan Ning turned him down without hesitation.
She would eat alone if Jing Yichen was travelling outside A City for business.
But if Jing Yichen was in A City, she would always wait until he came home and ate meals with him.
Jing Yichen grabbed a white towel and dried Shangguan Nings hands as he said with a smile, You are not alone now, you have a baby inside you. So you must eat well and on time even if I am not at home.
No, the little one is not yet formed. He doesnt count until he is born.
Jing Yichen shook his head helplessly and said in a soft voice, Alright, then I wille home in time for dinner. But if I am really stuck with something, dont wait up. The baby needs food too, understand?
Shangguan Ning nodded eventually. I will eat first if you really cant make it. But you are at home today, and I was not as hungry.
She was living a normal life with a proper diet when she was pregnant with a child nowadays. She no longer stayed up. She had changed her lifestyle because of the baby.
Sitting at the dining table, they talked about normal things and finished their food peacefully. Shangguan Ning asked about Jing Yiran being driven out of Family Jing only post that.
With one hand holding a te of fresh strawberry and the other holding Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen brought her to the sofa and sat down next to her.
He ced the strawberry upon the white marble table and gathered Shangguan Ning in his arms as he recounted the incident and ate the strawberry which she brought to his lips.
Shangguan Nings heart skipped a beat after hearing the truth.
Will the transfer of so many shares affect the development of the enterprise?
Jing Yichen smiled and said softly, Jingsheng has experienced all kinds of trouble before reaching where it is today. I am the leader and the biggest shareholder of thepany. No matter what Family Ji does, we wont be seriously affected. Have faith.
Jing Yichen was not worried about being controlled by Family Ji because he had numerous methods to deal with Family Jis Enterprise.
Shangguan Ning trusted Jing Yichens ability. He had outstanding talent and capability as a leader in business operations. She didnt think that Ji Bo was a match against Jing Yichen.
But what she didnt understand was why Jing Yiran would want to transfer the entire 20% shares of Jingsheng to Family Jis Enterprise.
It was a huge amount of wealth, one that would bring in a great deal of revenue, annually. Jing Yiran couldnt have been so stupid to give away such huge benefits to Ji Bo without getting anything in return.
There must be some important deal involved in the middle.
Jing Yichen spoke in a low voice as if he could read through what Shangguan Ning was thinking. We are not yet sure what Jing Yiran has received from Ji Bo in return. But whatever it is, it cant have been more valuable than 20% shares of Jingsheng. For him, it is definitely a loss making deal.
The key point was that Jing Yiran gave away the shares which had been given by Jing Zhongxiu and Mo Lan to him, and not acquired through his own efforts. He was earning money at no original cost.
Shangguan Ning was very unhappy right now. Jing Yichen was the owner of Jingsheng Enterprise and 1/5th of it was gone. She really wanted to curse Jing Yiran.
She did so, right inside her heart.
Jing Yichen only stayed with her for a short moment before going about dealing with the properties under Jing Yirans name. He used arge amount of force and froze Jing Yirans bank ounts, sealed his houses, cars,panies, bars, night clubs etc.
Jing Yiran became a hobo overnight.
The following morning, the news that Jing Yiran had been driven out of Family Jing swept across the entire A City.
Everyone talked about this incident vividly, trying to guess why the Second Master of Family Jing would be driven out of the house. On the other hand, Ji Bos wedding didnt draw much attention. After all, people were always more interested and excited about the happenings of Family Jing.
Someone said that it was because the Second Master was living an unclean life so Jing Zhongxiu got irritated and drove him out of the door.
Some felt that the Elder Master must have driven him out, since there couldnt be two heirs at home.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning, who were currently the hot topic for gossip, were in a good mood. They headed to Mu Wenshengs house with precious medicinal gifts.
Mu Wensheng stayed at his yard most of the time rather than in the exquisite vi of Family Mu.
Jing Tianyuan had kept himpany through the entire day. They argued and yed chess. Sometimes they even showed off their grandchildren in front of each other to satisfy their vanity.
But that didnt mean that the two old men knew nothing about what was going on in the outside world.
Jing Tianyuan had gotten to know about Jing Yiran transferring the shares of Jingsheng on the previous night itself.
He had not slept the entire night in rage.
Of course, neither did Mu Wensheng because Jing Tianyuan kept nagging and mumbling cursed words, because of which he just couldnt fall asleep.
When he saw Jing Yichening in with his wife, Grandpa Mu let out a sigh of relief.
He could go and sleep now!
Chapter 418 - One Grandson Son Only (Part One)
Chapter 418: One Grandson Son Only (Part One)
Greetings, Grandpa and Grandpa Mu!
Shangguan Nings clear and musical voice arose in the yard.
The two old men smiled, especially Jing Tianyuan who instantly turned cheerful when he caught sight of his grandson and granddaughter-inw who was pregnant with his great-grandson.
Jing Zhongxiu indeed knew his father well. He knew what would make Jing Tianyuan cheerful.
Jing Yichen, who was still wearing an expressionless face, greeted the two old men briefly before falling into silence.
But Jing Tianyuan and Mu Wensheng were used to Jing Yichens personality, and understood that he tended to be silent. Therefore, they focussed their eyes upon Shangguan Ning rather than upon Jing Yichen.
Jing Tianyuan got quite happy seeing his granddaughter-inw. But Mu Wensheng got even more excited at the sight of her, because she was holding a box of medicinal material, which, judging from the cover, seemed to be Chinese caterpir fungus of exquisite quality.
Shangguan Ning had understood by now what Grandpa Mu liked. Seeing his eyes light up, she smiled and passed on the things to him. Grandpa Mu, here is the present for you. Hope you like it!
Mu Wensheng took it from her, happily. Soon, a bright smile hovered over his face as he said, I do like it! You muste and visit us as often as you can.
This way he would get some more medicinal material of superior quality.
Jing Tianyuan had been taking good medicine from him always and living a good life. So, he must get something good from his grandson as well.
Mu Wensheng couldnt help but hold the Chinese caterpir fungus tightly to his chest, and ran into a room where he stored all his treasures.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning sat down besides Jing Tianyuan who didnt mention anything about Jingsheng but asked about Shangguan Nings physical condition.
Shangguan Ning said that all was fine with her and she was doing well. She had morning sickness asionally but no other difort.
Jing Tianyunan was pleased to hear that. In his heart, one great-grandson was worth ten Jingsheng Enterprises.
Money could be earned and shares could be regained when lost. But great-grandson was a precious thing that could not be gained back so easily if it was ever lost.
There had always been one son for generations in Family Jing until Jing Yiran was born.
The fact proved that the extra one would always be extra and cause trouble rather than bring any benefits.
There was always a destiny written for each family. A forced change in the family would lead to unbearable consequences and cause great damage.
Had Mo Lan not insisted on keeping Jing Yiran back then, Jing Yichen would not suffer from so much stress and the development of Family Jing would have been much smoother.
One heir was enough!
Jing Tianyuan was not a very friendly man, simr to Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen, who were both distant and cruel.
However, he was very friendly towards Shangguan Ning. He was even worried that his severe expression would startle her and affect his great-grandson, so he wore a bright smile.
But Jing Tianyuans smile withered the moment Jing Yichen mentioned Jing Yiran selling the shares.
So your father drove off the bastard?
Jing Yichen nodded. Yes, Dad drove him out of Family Jing, froze and recalled all of his properties making him penniless.
Jing Tianyuan struck a hand upon his thigh and said cheerfully, Excellent! Your father finally managed to drive this boy out. Zhongxiu is good in every aspect except that he is not ruthless enough, especially towards his own family. He has been tricked many times and he still doesnt learn. What was he doing back then? He should have killed Zhang Rong when she drugged him the first time.
He threw a look at Jing Yichen as he stroked his chin. You are better than your father, fiercer than him. That is a good thing! We from the big family must act fiercely so that we can maintain our position in society.
Jing Yichen stayed silent. He didnt think that he was any better than his father. He resembled his father very much and both of them were fierce and ruthless. But both of them cared about emotions as well. They might not show any mercy to outsiders, but they always treated the family well.
Except for one thing C Jing Yichen treated Shangguan Ning more important than anyone else. As long as Shangguan Ning was involved, everything else would fade into insignificance.
He now understood the pain which his father suffered when his mother was gone. When a man lost the woman he loved dearly, even the money in the entire world would not make up for the loneliness of the heart. It was a kind of loss that no other women would be able topensate for.
Objectively speaking, Zhang Rong had indeed been a very beautiful woman. Jing Yiran had inherited her good looks. In fact, Zhang Rong had been slightly better looking than Zhao Qing.
But a mature man, especially a sessful man who had been exposed to all kinds of beautiful women, didnt get attracted to a woman just for her looks.
A woman tended to attract a grown man by her inner thoughts and etiquettes rather than looks.
That was where Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen were alike.
After Zhao Qing died, Jing Zhongxiu couldnt ovee the agony, even though the extremely beautiful Zhang Rong was right in front of him. He simply couldnt fall for her.
Same with Jing Yichen. He knew that he would not survive the consequence of losing Shangguan Ning, so he kept her well protected and loved her with all he had.
Jing Tianyuan felt extremely satisfied seeing how much his grandson and his granddaughter-inw were in love with each other. A man needed the love of only one woman. It was enough tost him for a lifetime.
Jing Yichen was capable enough to take over Family Jing. As for Jing Yiran, it would be great if he was out of Family Jing so that he didnt cause trouble for them in the future. But his old wife must be crying constantly for what had happened.
Jing Yiran had been raised by his wife and they shared a deep bond with each other. Jing Zhongxiu must have felt some pressure too.
Good that he was hiding here at Mus ce, otherwise he would have to face the trouble at home as well.
But Jing Tianyuan couldnt hide from it for long.
The sound of hurried footsteps reached them. Jing Tianyuan looked up, only to find his old wife,ing towards him in a hurry!
Chapter 419 - One Grandson Son Only (Part Two)
Chapter 419: One Grandson Son Only (Part Two)
You goddamned old man,e home and teach your son a lesson. He is not treating me well. My grandson has been driven out of home when he is badly injured. He will die!
Mo Lans eyes were swollen up. She was extremely annoyed as she dashed towards Jing Tianyuan.
After Mo Lan gave Jing Yiran the properties of Family Jing which he ended up splurging, Jing Tianyuan no longer indulged her as he used to, earlier.
Mo Lan had been a rtively rational woman when she was younger. But as she grew old, she got more and more childish and impulsive at doing everything. Jing Yiran must have fooled her somehow, making her throw hermon sense out of the window.
She was capable of giving Jing Yiran all she had of Jingsheng, without hesitation.
Jing Tianyuan understood that Mo Lan assumed that Jing Yichen could still be powerful because of his abilities even without the support of Family Jing. After all, he had achieved a lot through his own abilities. But Jing Yiran, on the other hand, would have no position to stand, without Family Jing in A City. That was why Mo Lan gave everything good to Jing Yiran, instead.
But that was absolutely unfair to Jing Yichen. Just because he was powerful enough and worked hard, he was penalised for it?
If that was the case, who would he bother to work hard?
That was not Family Jings style. Family Jing always respected the powerful. If Jing Yichen was the powerful one, then all of Family Jing should belong to him.
As for the weak one, it was natural that he was stomped under someone elses feet.
Jing Tianyuan took a sip of the tea, and then stared at Mo Lan. He calmly asked her. What are you crying about? My grandson is sitting right here. He is totally fine.
Mo Lan got startled for a second and then bellowed. I mean the other one. You know which one...
Before she could say anything more, she was interrupted by Jing Tianyuan who responded in an upromising tone, I have got only one grandson. What do you mean by the other? Old wife, you are getting forgetful as you are ageing.
Mo Lan was speechless.
It was true that Jing Tianyuan had never admitted Jing Yiran as part of the family in front of outsiders. Jing Yichen was the only grandson he epted. He and Jing Zhongxiu had only cultivated Jing Yichen. He had been punished severely by them when he was young. Jing Yiran, however, wasnt punished no matter what he did, because he was an outsider in Jing Tianyuans eyes.
Her tears kept trickling out as she trembled in anger.
Ran is my life. Are you trying to kill him or me? If anything happens to him, I will die too!
Shangguan Ning wanted to get up to help Mo Lan when Jing Yichen stopped her.
Shangguan Ning looked at Jing Yichen and paused.
Jing Yichen had always been cold towards Mo Lan. That was something Shangguan Ning had noticed when they first met each other.
Now he treated her even more indifferently.
Shangguan Ning had had a good impression of Mo Lan. She considered her as a grandma who cared about her grandchildren.
She even remembered that Mo Lan had been worried about Jing Yichens marriage and had been very cheerful when she saw her sharing bed with Jing Yichen.
But as time went by, she found that if Jing Yiran was not involved, Mo Lan was kind to Jing Yichen. But the minute Jing Yiran came into the picture, Mo Lan would me Jing Yichen for everything and defend Jing Yiran without fail. No matter what happened, Jing Yichen was the one to be med in her eyes, especially when Jing Yiran got injured.
Shangguan Ning didnt like Jing Yiran at all, and hence she couldnt like Mo Lan who kept defending him.
The truth was that Jing Yichen only took action when Jing Yiran provoked him.
Jing Tianyuan was not moved at all by Mo Lans constant crying. He knew pretty well what his old wife was trying to do.
Stop it! Go home and vent whatever you are feeling. Are you trying to make Mu Wenshengugh at me? You can go and educate that grandson of yours if you have so much time to shed tears in front of me. He must grow up.
Jing Tianyuan was quite displeased when he mentioned Jing Yiran.
You have brought up a traitor who sold Family Jing. If he is given any more properties, we will all be beggars. Are you also nning to ruin our family? Zhongxiu is right. That bastard should have been thrown out ages ago.
Mo Lan had never expected that Jing Tianyuan would treat her in this way. Jing Tianyuan had always allowed her to do whatever she wanted and never talked with her in such a domineering manner.
She knew that Jing Yiran was wrong to have sold the shares. But she didnt think that Jing Yiran should be driven out of the family just because of this reason.
Jing Yichen was here, right? He was powerful and could get all the shares back.
Mo Lan felt that Jing Yichen should help Jing Yiran because they were brothers.
But she left in anger finally because even Mu Wensheng scolded her after he came out of his favourite room.
Immediately after Mo Lan left, Jing Tianyuan grabbed Mu Wenshengs arm and asked, My wife should be fine, right?
Mu Wensheng flung off his arm and said with a smirk, Dont worry. I just felt her pulse when I grabbed her. She is far away from death.
It was not a kind phrase, but it assured Jing Tianyuan. Then he asked Mu Wensheng to feel Shangguan Nings pulse.
Mu Wensheng felt her pulse without hesitation especially because Shangguan Ning had brought him such precious ingredients.
She is totally fine, dont worry. She will certainly give birth to a baby for your family.
Mu Wensheng drew back his hands and said with a smile.
If a baby was born in Family Jing, he, as Shangguan Nings special doctor, would surely get many presents from Jing Tianyuan as a way of appreciation.
Haha, at that time, he would get some more medicinal material from him.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning didnt stay at Mu Wenshengs for lunch. Instead, they headed towards Huang Lihans residence. After being badgered by Mo Lan for so long, Jing Zhongxiu had gone to Huang Lihans to escape his mother and seek peace.
Shangguan Ning had not yet been to Huang Lihans after she got pregnant. It was time to tell him the good news.
Chapter 420 - 20% of the Shares
Chapter 420: 20% of the Shares
After Jing Yiran was driven out of Family Jing, he settled down in a small vi which was registered under Ji Bos name. But as a matter of fact, it was his own vi.
He had already thought of many alternatives after he transferred Jingshengs shares. He had acquired many properties under someone elses name. In this way, they would avoid being confiscated by Family Jing.
But the properties under his name had all been sealed within a day, and the money in his coffers was reducing quickly. The rumor was that the honored Second Master of Family Jing became a hobo overnight!
A hobo? Bah, he was one of the top five richest men in A City!
The doctor left after taking care of his wounds. Jing Yiran had been suffering from a high fever since the night before and he only felt slightly better by the evening.
Ji Bo had arranged a servant for him, who made a light dinner for him, but Jing Yiran didnt eat anything. After catching up with thetest news of A City, he fell asleep.
In his slumber he felt a woman sitting next to him, wiping his face with a cool, damp towel.
As the womans hands touched his face, they felt rather rough. But she smelled sweet, just like candies.
Jing Yiran wanted to open his eyes to see who the woman was, but he couldnt seem to wake up.
All he could hear was a soft voice sighing by his ears. Why bother...
The following morning, Jing Yiran woke up and wanted to find that woman before anything else.
But no one was around and he couldnt see anything to indicate thatst night had been real.
Could it have been a dream?
But he had had that dream more than once. It felt extremely real.
Every time he got injured and fell into a painful haze, that woman would appear no matter where he was C at Family Jings or at the hospitals. Even when he was here, that woman could still find him.
Who was it?
Why was she taking care of him?
Why was she always gone every time he woke up?
Jing Yiran frowned and summoned the servant. Did anyonee to my room after I fell asleep?
The servant shook his head and said, No, I am the only one here. No one else visited.
Could there be anything wrong with the door or the window? Could anyone have sneaked inter in the night?
The servant got startled and responded. Impossible! I went to sleep after I shut the doors and windows and I was the one who opened them this morning. There was nothing amiss.
Jing Yiran shook his head impatiently and asked the servant to leave.
He might have considered it a dream if it had urred once or twice. But it had happened too many times for it to be simply his imagination.
This woman came in silence and went away without leaving a trace. It would be terrible if she wanted to kill him someday because she would be able to do it without any problem.
Jing Yiran sobered up when he had this thought. He finished the breakfast in a hurry and had justid down when Ji Bo came there.
The newly wedded Ji Bo looked not much different from his usual self. In fact, he looked less energetic and thinner than before.
Jing Yiran had known Ji Bo for a long time. Although he had no idea who his wife was, he knew that Lan Yu must be someone extraordinary.
Jing Yiran teased. Yo, President Ji, it seems that you are enjoying your married life to the fullest. Look at your face, much paler and narrower than before. Did you have fun with the bride all night long and failed to catch up on your sleep?
Ji Bo sat down on the sofa in Jing Yirans bedroom. He looked gentle but sounded displeased. Mind your own business.
Yang Muyan was a demon!
Ji Bo felt indescribably disgusted after marrying her.
It was a torture to look at her or hear her talk, let alone touch her.
He had thought that Ji Lili was disgusting enough, but did not expect that Yang Muyan was even more hateful than her. To top it, he could not even show his disgust.
In some way, Yang Muyan and Ji Lili resembled each other. They didnt care about what others thought and always did what they wanted to do. They were both spoiled and selfish since they were young.
Ji Bo hated such women. He preferred someone who was elegant, gentle and simple.
But women reared in upper ss families tended to be full of conspiracies. They were not innocent and pure because of their families dynamics.
Hearing what JI Bo said, Jing Yiran was not annoyed. He was just in a temporary slump and would soon be the man of Family Jing. He had been making this n for ages and was nearing his goal slowly.
What he had not expected was that Jing Zhongxiu would discover the share transference so quickly. Otherwise he could have stayed for a bit longer in Family Jing.
Good that he had been prepared, otherwise he would really have be a penniless hobo, forced to stay on the street.
All smart guys had backups. So did he!
The properties which Mo Lan had given him were sold by him and converted into concealed assets.
You sound so intimidating this morning. Did the bride refuse to let you take herst night? Jing Yiranughed. Just the effort ofughing caused agony throughout his entire body, driving him into tears.
But he didnt care about the pain and continued to tease Ji Bo without hesitation. I knew that the woman was not so simple. God, you might be killed by her someday!
Ji Bo got furious instantly. But he was a well behaved man who knew how to control his temper.
No one except for Jing Yichen could manage to make him bellow in anger.
He believed that he was still better than these ordinary people, including Jing Yiran.
I am not here to discuss these useless matters with you. I am here to talk about Jingsheng and Family Jis enterprises. I will leave if you continue to be such a child.
Ji Bo stood up and was about to leave.
Jing Yiran stoppedughing and showed a disagreeable expression. Then he said calmly, Hold on. We do need to talk about the shares, because I think that 20% shares of Jingsheng in return for 20% shares of Jis is a bad deal!
Chapter 421 - Wait for My Divorce, Doctor Mu
Chapter 421: Wait for My Divorce, Doctor Mu
Tiger called Jing Yichente at night.
Master, it turns out that Jing Yiran transferred the shares without asking for money. Instead, he asked for 20% shares of Family Jis Enterprise in the bargain.
Without any expression on the face, Jing Yichen said, Okay, at least he is not as dumb as a pig. He knows that he needs something valuable in return.
Although the shares of Family Jis Enterprise were not equal to those of Jingsheng Enterprise, yet the shares of Family Jis Enterprise were rtively more scattered. Hence, acquiring 20% shares of Family Jis Enterprise was a big deal in Family Ji. In Family Jings case, however, Jing Yichen had almost all the shares, so even if Ji Bo got 20% shares of Jingsheng, he still wouldnt have much say in Jingshengs affairs.
The shares of Jingsheng were extremely valuable. So were the shares of Family Jis Enterprise.
Jing Yichen had thought that Jing Yiran would exchange the shares for money to secure his future. But it seemed that he was not stupid enough not to be aware of how much more valuable shares were aspared to money.
In this way, Jing Yiran would be able to control Ji Bo.
Jing Yichen didnt need to use any forces to get back the shares of Jingsheng. As long as he could get 20% shares of Family Jis Enterprise possessed by Jing Yiran plus some other operations, Ji Bo would deliver back the shares of Jingsheng without hesitation.
Go and check who was the original shareholder of the transferred shares. They cant possibly havee from Ji Bo. He would not give his own shares, no matter what.
Yes, Master, we are on it. But Family Ji is concealing the information really effectively right now and we might need some more time to figure it out.
Okay.
Also, Yang Muyan has just gone to Family Mus Hospital to look for Doctor Mu. Do we need to send forces to keep Doctor Mu safe?
Jing Yichen nodded to himself. He had suspected that Yang Muyan would visit Mu Qing sooner thanter. No need. Stay outside the hospital. She wont be a match against Mu Qing.
At Family Mus Hospital, Mu Qing was very surprised to see Yang Muyan entering his cabin in an elegant manner. But he recovered quickly.
What brought you here, Mrs. Ji? Oh yes, congrattions on marrying a lovely man. President Ji is one of the most handsome young men of A City and had way too many girls running after him for a long time. But you are the final winner!
He looked enthusiastic and friendly, wearing a bright smile as if he was very happy to meet Yang Muyan. Yet the smile didnt reach his eyes. He was alert and on his guard.
He knew that Yang Muyan was extremely devious. She had been famous for being a really smart kid in A City since her childhood. Although few people met her after she grew up, yet her tales were spread amongst the people of A city.
She was intelligent, smart, and fierce!
Mu Qing had no idea why Yang Muyan was here today. He knew that she had been interested in him long ago but didnt think that she would be harbouring any deep feelings for him after so many years.
Also, she had married Ji Bo and be the daughter-inw of Family Ji. So she would not do anything beyond the norms.
But Mu Qing waspletely wrong.
Yang Muyan had never attached any importance to Family Ji. Her marriage with Ji Bo was nothing more than a trade. She didnt behave like a daughter-inw of that family.
She came to Mu Qing now because her position had just stabilised, due to Ji Bos official backing.
She came to Mu Qing exactly one day after her marriage.
She spoke in a straightforward and blunt manner. Doctor Mu, you are not married yet, are you? Dont get hitched this year, we will get married when I get divorced.
Mu Qing got so startled that he almost fell off the chair.
What the heck? Did he hear wrong?
She wanted to marry him?
She had just got married the day before and was here already, asking him to wait for her divorce? Was she totally mental?
She was indeed the hideous woman of Family Yang, careless and shameless.
Yang Muyan had publicly announced in A City, years ago that she was going to marry Mu Qing and bring a dowry worth tens of billions with her to the Mu family. She had even imed that she would not marry anyone else in this life!
That announcement had scared Mu Qing so much that he nearly shut himself at home due to rumours floating around about him. People tittered behind his back and said that he was a handsome young man who would marry a hideous woman for money.
Mu Qing wanted to y Yang Muyan alive when he was reminded of the humiliation back then.
And now she even dared toe to the hospital to ask him to marry her? Why should he?
She had the audacity to ask him to wait for her divorce this year!
Bah!
He didnt want such a woman.
Mu Qing didnt have any prejudice towards divorced women. It was totally eptable if a woman chose to divorce a scumbag and start a new life.
But he would rather die than marry a woman like Yang Muyan!
She was making it sound as if he adored her so much.
What was it about him that had impressed this demoness? He would change that trait of his right away.
Mu Qing almost couldnt maintain his fake smile. Recovering from the shock, he said politely, I think there is a misunderstanding, Mrs. Ji. I am already married!
Yang Muyan stared at him.
Mu Qings handsome face and angelic expressions were visible to her clearly and he looked charming, dressed in a white gown with a grey sweater peeping from inside. His short hair made him look full of energy and youthfulness.
This was exactly the sort of man she liked. Her heart throbbed at the sight of him even after so many years. She still wanted him!
She must have this man. Anyone who wanted to take him away from her was going to die.
I have checked that you are not married. Lying doesnt work with me. You wont have to wait for long. Within six months to one year, I will get a divorce.
Yang Muyan sounded hoarse but showed a very sweet smile to Mu Qing.
However, maybe it was because she hadnt smiled for a long time, it looked totally unnatural. Thebination of her pale face and white teeth made her look like a ghost in Mu Qings eyes.
Mu Qing cursed Jing Yichen repeatedly in his heart C Master Jing alwaysnded him in a mess and expected him to clean it up.
He had gotten rid of the woman but now she hade back because of Jing Yichen.
What was wrong with Yang Muyan? Either she looked hideous or sounded horrifying. But she was always so confident and maniptive.
Mu Qing started to feel terribly sorry for himself.
Chapter 422 - Too Addled for My Hospital
Chapter 422: Too Addled for My Hospital
Even when Family Yang was at the top of the food chain, a couple of years ago, Mu Qing had not feared Yang Muyan or her family. He had thought about marrying Yang Muyan only because he wanted to get their money.
Now, when Family Yang was in ruins, Mu Qing feared Yang Muyan even less, though she still seemed to be a very powerful woman.
Family Mu was currently enjoying a high position in A City because their hospital was providing top notch treatments for all kinds of diseases.
Family Mus Hospital was considered as an aristocratic hospital because most patients here belonged to the upper ss families of A City. The hospital had an excellent environment. Most importantly, the medical facilities and doctors were of global standards and the fees were extremely high as well. Ordinary people just couldnt afford this ce.
Family Mus Hospital was currently ranked as one of the most important hospitals in the entire country with hoards of patientsing in every day. The hospital specialized in curing all kinds of difficult diseases and they had the genius doctor, Mu Qing as well as other specialists in different medical fields. Apart from Family Mus Hospital, there were other hospitals for women, children, and orthopedics which were all run by the other members of Family Mu.
Anyone who offended Family Mu was simply tired of their lives.
Therefore, Mu Qing had always been well protected. No one dared to do anything to him.
At the beginning, Mu Qing had been showing hospitality to Yang Muyan. He was always like this C proud inside but friendly outside.
But that didnt necessarily mean that Mu Qing was a man who could be easily bullied.
He no longer smiled. Instead, he wore a dominant expression on his face. Lan Yu, dont think so highly of yourself. I can marry any woman I want. Why must I marry you?
Think so highly of herself?
Yang Muyans face sunk. Her smile disappeared and her eyes turned fierce.
Mu Qing caught her look as he sneered. See. You cant take a few sharp words and now you want to kill me, right? Why bother marrying such a vtile woman? I want to enjoy a long lifespan!
Yang Muyan rxed her tightly clenched fingers.
She liked Mu Qing and wanted to stay by his side. Her heart fluttered whenever she saw his handsome and sunny face. Even if he was angry at her at this moment, he was still so good looking and full of charisma.
She especially liked it when Mu Qing was dressed in the white gown. He looked so clean and warm. He seemed trustworthy and capable of protecting her. As long as he was around, she believed that she would be able to keep the darkness away.
Yang Muyan detested her own voice, and more so when she had to make her beloved Mu Qing listen to it.
But no matter how much she hated it, she still exined inposure, I am not thinking about killing you. I only want to marry you. You know that very well. Killing you will only make me a widow. You are the only one for me. I will not marry anyone else in my life.
Mu Qing listened to her in annoyance. What was this woman talking about? Make her a widow? She would be a widow when Ji Bo died. How was he involved?
She just married Ji Bo the day before and now she was here, iming that she was not going to marry anyone else. Did she think that he was an idiot?
You are nothing but a maniac in my eyes. I dont like you at all. Which normal woman would turn to another man on the second day of her wedding? If Ji Bo cant satisfy you, you can find several other men for yourself. Stop humiliating yourself in front of me.
Luckily, Ji Bo was already married to this crazy woman. Mu Qing would not want to get involved in anything rted to Yang Muyan.
Mu Qing had thought that he had already been quite impolite to her. Unexpectedly, however, Yang Muyan was not at all angry except for giving the small reaction at the beginning. Currently, she looked poised and determined.
Objectively speaking, Yang Muyan did have a very nice appearance. Her face was small and the eyebrows well-trimmed. Her eyes were bright and she had a ssic straight nose. Her mouth was like a rosebud.
She was born in an aristocratic family and possessed all traits of a noble woman. She was really elegant. As long as she didnt talk or look at others with a pair of cold eyes, she would not leave a terrible impression on anyone.
She looked much better now than the first time that Mu Qing had seen her.
At that time, her skin had been so pale that it was nearly transparent. She had been a bit too skinny, making others think that she might be suffering from a disease.
But she had a lethal heart under that fragile look of hers.
Mu Qing didnt dare drop his guard in front of this woman. So he had to stimte her verbally, hoping that she would leave as soon as possible. Zheng Jing had just called and told him that he would bring Zhao Anan here soon. The girl had been visiting their home.
If he had known about Yang Muyans visit, he would not have stayed here but gone to Family Zhengs to pick up Zhao Anan.
Yang Muyan stared intently at Mu Qing for a moment and then said suddenly, Are you jealous?
What?
What in the hell was she talking about?
Are you braindead?
This woman was not talking about the same thing as he was.
You are jealous of Ji Bo. Yang Muyan sounded determined and she even had a smile on her face now.
What she said next almost suffocated Mu Qing who was already reeling under the shock.
Dont worry. Ji Bo wont touch me. Any man who touches me will die. I am still a virgin. You dont need to worry about anything.
Mu Qing felt that talking with Yang Muyan would certainly make him spit blood.
Was this woman too smart or too stupid?Why was she speaking so highly of herself? How did this weirdo evere into being?
Why would he care if she was a virgin or not?
Totally stupid.
Mu Qing had no desire to speak even one more word with her. He tried to drive her out. Get out of my ce. You are not wee here! You are too addled to be treated in my hospital. You better go to the mental hospital instead. They may have a cure for you.
Yang Muyan had no change of expression on her face. She picked up Mu Qings cup of water, took a sip from there and ced it back to its original ce.
Mu Qing frowned deeply. He was thinking that after Yang Muyan left, he was going to toss the cup somewhere as far as possible!
Chapter 423 - The Hot-Tempered Zhao Anan
Chapter 423: The Hot-Tempered Zhao Anan
I know you are living with a woman called Zhao Anan. She is like a nuisance to me.
One single sentence of hers made Mu Qings expression change dramatically.
Yang Muyan had been gazing at Mu Qings face. Seeing his expression undergo tremendous change, she couldnt help but disy her intimidating confidence. I dont care how many women you have had, as long as you keep none after we get married. I dont think anyone can take you away from me, including Zhao Anan!
Mu Qing sprang up and said in rage, If you dare to touch one single strand of her hair, I will definitely kill you!
Untouched, Yang Muyan showed nothing except a moment of jealousy.
You seem to care so much about her. It seems that my little birds have delivered wrong information to me. I had thought that since I cant marry you instantly, she could live for a few more days to keep yourpany. But she seems like a threat at this moment, so it is better that she dies early.
Mu Qing looked at Yang Muyan with a frozen expression. He was now realizing that the situation had spun out of his control. He was an excellent doctor, but not a qualified strategist. That was Yang Muyans strongest suit.
Only Jing Yichen was capable of dealing with Yang Muyan.
Also, this mental woman was a mess that Jing Yichen had created. Zhao Anan being his cousin, Jing Yichen had all the reasons to handle this issue quickly and efficiently.
What Mu Qing did not know was that even if Jing Yichen had not taken him to meet Yang Muyan, she had been keeping tabs on Mu Qing for ages now. And Yang Muyan was here tonight not out of a momentary instinct, but it was an asion that she had been waiting for long.
Yang Muyan had only two goals in recent times, one C to overturn Family Jing so that they couldpensate for the dead members of Family Yang and two C Mu Qing.
She had no ns to spend her life alone and wanted to find a man to live a happy life with.
As for Zhao Anan, Yang Muyan had never considered her as a threat.
Get out of here now! I will never marry you, you crazy woman. Just throw that idea out of your head. Mu Qing sat down once again. He knew that he couldnt handle Yang Muyan alone and needed Jing Yichen and Zheng Jings support.
Yang Muyan seemed quite confident about herself as she said in a hoarse voice, You will marry me. You will bend down on your knees and beg me to marry you. You care about a lot of people and you will surrender as long as I pick one out of them. But I like your being responsible, so your family is safe for now. But I cant guarantee the future.
By now, Mu Qing understood how crazy Yang Muyan was. She had be even more stubborn nowpared to their first meeting.
Mu Qing was about to say something when the door to his cabin was opened.
Zhao Anan walked in, followed by Zheng Jing.
Zhao Anan frowned when she saw the woman sitting opposite Mu Qing and asked nonchntly, Scumbag Mu, who is going to marry this woman? Who did she say that she likes?
When Zheng Jing caught sight of Yang Muyan, he got startled. But due to years of professional training, he didnt disy any change in his expressions. He stood calmly on one side.
But all his senses were on alert. What was this woman doing here with Mu Qing? They seemed to be talking about something rted to marrying?
Mu Qings face turned pale as he saw Zhao Anan and Zheng Jing enter. He sprang up on his feet and approached Zhao Anan. In a low voice, he asked her, You heard everything?
He was worried that Zhao Anan would get jealous of Yang Muyan and leave from there.
Actually, Zhao Anan had just heard a little bit of their conversation. When she realised that a woman was flirting with Mu Qing, she got irritated and walked in.
She was careless but not stupid. Hearing what Mu Qing said, she rolled her eyes and said with a sunken face, Yes, we heard it all!
Zheng Jing wanted to give Mu Qing a hint that he and Zhao Anan heard nothing. But Mu Qing didnt even bother to look at him and started exining to Zhao Anan, anxiously.
Zheng Jing shook his head slightly. This clever Mu turned totally dumb when he ran into Zhao Anan.
Anan, dont misunderstand please. I dont like this woman. You know very well that I have always liked you and I swear to God that I will only marry you. This woman ispletely crazy. Dont listen to her or think too much about it. Now, go home and rest. I wille home as soon as I finish handling this matter.
Mu Qing had no idea how much Zhao Anan had heard, but he didnt want her to harbour any misunderstanding.
Zhao Anan swung her gaze from Mu Qing to Yang Muyan and then burst intoughter. It is alright. You two look cute together. Also, I have never thought about marrying anyone. You can continue. There is no need to worry about my feelings getting hurt.
The other three people in the office got startled.
Yang Muyan addressed her in a bossy tone. Good that you know your actual worth.
Her men had kept their eyes on Mu Qing and Zhao Anan for a very long time. The conclusion that they had drawn was that Mu Qing was devoted to Zhao Anan but Zhao Anan didnt care about Mu Qing at all.
Zhao Anan looked at her in anger. Jing Yichen was the only man who could get away by talking with Zhao Anan in this tone. Yang Muyan was an unknown woman who dared to speak with her in this way!
Zhao Anan had not wanted to argue with her because she knew pretty well that Mu Qing was devoted to her. She was used to women throwing themselves on Mu Qing all the time. This woman didnt seem any different.
But this tone of hers irritated the hot tempered Zhao Anan.
She suddenly threw herself at Yang Muyan and punched her.
Yang Muyan didnt expect that this woman would start a fight because of a verbal dispute. Without any preparation, she was thrown to the ground and her head started to spin.
She had been fragile and sick for a long time. Also, she was a well protected miss of Family Yang. So, she was no match against Zhao Anan who was strong and was involved in fights on a daily basis.
Due to Zhao Anans force, she had a severe fall and couldnt get back on her feet for quite a while!
Chapter 424 - The King of Geniuses!
Chapter 424: The King of Geniuses!
Zhao Anan stopped meddling with her rival seeing that she was so weak. She stepped over Yang Muyans back and walked straight over it as she red at Mu Qing. Why do you have so many unimportant women around you? You must pay me next time I help you send away these annoying women. Honestly, now I have be your bodyguard!
Having said the words, Zhao Anan groped into the pockets of Mu Qings pants, and took out a set of keys. Post that, she left, humming happily.
Mu Qing was totally transfixed.
This girl was way too bold!
She didnt give a hoot about Yang Muyan!
Mu Qing got both happy and worried, simultaneously. He was happy because Zhao Anan trusted him so much that she never suspected that something was going on between him and Yang Muyan and he was worried, because Zhao Anan was not angry. Was it because she didnt care about him even a little bit?
Zheng Jing didnt leave the room. Zhao Anan was fearless and had no idea how dangerous Yang Muyang could be. But he and Mu Qing knew the reality pretty well.
She might not bebative but she was an excellent strategist.
That she dared to visit Family Mus Hospital alone meant that she hade fully prepared. So they didnt want to make any impulsive moves. They only hoped that she would not extract revenge from Zhao Anan after this incident.
Yang Muyan rose from the floor, slowly. Her ankle length, white dress was stained with dirt. But she didnt care about it. Instead, sheughed menacingly as she gazed at the disappearing silhouette.
She moved slowly towards the exit without looking at Mu Qing even once.
Both Mu Qing and Zheng Jing got anxious, and they called Jing Yichen immediately.
Anything?
Jing Yichens cold voice came through the phone. He sounded emotionless but it made Mu Qing feel at ease.
Master Jing, Yang Muyan was here a moment ago.
Okay.
She wants to marry me just like before. What am I going to do? I am good looking, but I cant ruin my face just for that woman.
Jing Yichen did not even bother to answer Mu Qing.
How self-obsessed was this guy!
She threatened to kill my family if I dont marry her. Also, she wants to kill Anan. What should I do? She is way too scary, she is not even a human.
I will send someone to keep Anan safe. Jing Yichen sounded calm as usual. It was impossible to tell how he was feeling.
As a matter of fact, he wanted to kill Yang Muyan, badly. But Family Jis Enterprise had just acquired 20% shares of Jingsheng and it would worsen the situation if Yang Muyan was killed at this moment.
That woman was way too smart. She chose to marry the second biggest family of A City so that she could get herself a powerful protector.
It might have been her n to do the share exchange.
Ji Bo wanted to get the shares of Jingsheng, but if the bargaining chip was Family Jis shares, Ji Bo would definitely not have agreed to the deal. He regarded the shares of Family Ji more important than those of Jingsheng, despite the fact that the stock prices of Family Jis Enterprise were much lower than that of Jingsheng.
But what was confusing was how they managed to persuade Jing Yiran to give up 20% of the shares at one go. It shouldnt have been a very easy matter.
Jing Yiran might be a yboy who was easily consumed by hatred, but he was not stupid. On the contrary, he was very smart and knew exactly what he wanted.
The more he got to know about Yang Muyan, the more fathomless Jing Yichen found her to be.
She set up a car ident to get Zhang Rong killed, driving a wedge between him and Jing Yiran. She even framed Jing Yiran for killing all his men and Shen Lingbing. She had done everything so discreetly. If Jing Yichen had not stayed calm during this time, all these ns would have ended up dividing Family Jing!
It was said that the reason why Family Yang was able to rise so steeply in the past decade, was because Yang Muyan was the think tank behind it.
Jing Yichen had not taken this rumour seriously back then. Now he did.
Yang Muyan was not an ordinary girl. She was intelligent and bold. She was able to create opportunities for herself, whatever the situation maybe.
Geniuses were present in all eras. Mu Qing was a genius in the medical field whilst Zheng Jing was a genius in crime investigation. But Yang Muyan was a genius in strategy games.
Most of the time, men were not a match against women when it came to conspiracies.
Women could be crazier and more creative than men when it came to ruthlessness as well!
Tell Anan who Yang Muyan really is, so she can be better prepared. Also, get her drugs so that she can have a fail-safe n. But Yang Muyan might not go for Anan yet. She is out looking for me.
Jing Yichen talked a lot this time. Mu Qing could tell that despite sounding cold, he still cared about Zhao Anan.
He was d to leave that crazy woman to Jing Yichen who was more cunning than a fox and fiercer than a wolf. She would definitely rue confronting him and hopefully, Anan would be safe.
Jing Yichen was the most suitable person to deal with the situation.
Jing Yichen sat in silence for a while in the study after he hung up the phone.
He worked through everything that had happened recently and then adjusted the n he had devised. He got up and left the study only after he was certain that everything was in ce.
Conspiracies?
Yang Muyan was no match to him.
Forces and powers?
Family Jing was much wealthier than all the properties of Family Yang and Family Jibined together.
Geniuses?
He was the king amongst all the geniuses!
Yang Muyan must be removed as soon as possible. She had been alive for way too long.
Seeing Jing Yichening out of the study, Shangguan Ning passed the hair dryer to him. Help me dry my hair!
Jing Yichen dropped a kiss on her forehead and did the job proficiently.
They were having a wonderful life, which someone was trying to disrupt. Therefore, Jing Yichen would spare no efforts in striking back.
He dried Shangguan Nings hair gently. Her hair had now grown to shoulder length, smooth and soft, just like silk. She didnt get her hair dyed because of pregnancy, so her hair ended up being half ck and half golden brown.
Shangguan Ningined about her hair being ugly but Jing Yichen didnt agree with her.
He liked it when she was in her natural state. She didnt need any embellishments to look beautiful.
Hair dying made people look fashionable, but the material would harm the hair. Jing Yichen didnt want his woman to be affected by these things.
He carried Shangguan Ning to the bed and they fell asleep in each others arms.
No matter what happened outside, Jing Yichen would fear nothing with her around.
Chapter 425 - Counterstrike
Chapter 425: Counterstrike
A startling piece of news swept across the entire A City the following morning.
It was about the newly wedded Lan Yu, the daughter-inw of the second biggest aristocratic Family Ji of A City and had spread all over the newspapers, TV news, website etc.
The headline was: The ugly genius of Family Yang is now an aristocraticdy.
The news was mainly about the real identity of Lan Yu. As per the article, she used to be an ugly woman called Yang Muyan. The real Lan Yu had been killed by Yang Muyans men and she had taken her identity. She had turned into a beautiful girl who attracted Ji Bo, making him fall for her and get married to her, instantly. The real purpose of Yang Muyan was to consume Family Jis properties so as to restore Family Yang.
This was an explosive piece of news. No one had expected that the newly wedded Ji Bo of Family Ji had married the ugliest girl in A City.
The power of gossip was endless. With the help of the most professional team, the whole incident spiraled and became the hottest trending topic within a few hours.
All powerful families of A City knew pretty well that Family Jing had destroyed Family Yang because Family Yang hired a hitman to kill the heir of Family Jing. That had been a taboo among families from early on.
If all families hired professional hitmen to kill people, then all the heirs of Families in A City would have been killed within a short period and the families would copse.
So most of the families didnt feel sorry for Family Yang but thought that they had gotten what they deserved.
It was not so easy to kill the heir of Family Jing. The family had reached its highest peak because of generations efforts.
No one was allowed to touch Family Jing and it was a lesson learnt after spilling blood.
But one heir of Family Yang was still alive. And she turned out to be the mysterious and intelligent woman of Family Yang.
No one believed that Yang Muyan and Ji Bo were truly in deep love with each other. Everyone realized that they got married so fast because they had some hidden ns.
Had Family Ji known the real identity of Lan Yu?
Had Family Ji been desiring the tremendous amount of dowry which Lan Yu brought with her?
Was Family Ji trying to provoke Family Jing?
Journalists from all walks of media had surrounded the vi of Family Ji as well as the mansion of Family Ji.
Shangguan Ning was watching the live streaming from herputer. Excited voices of the journalists could be heard on camera.
Dear audience and friends, we are waiting to do an interview with Family Ji, but neither Mr. Ji Bo nor Ms. Lan Yu is present. The entire family has chosen to remain silent. Are they admitting to the truth by staying silent? We will continue to dig deeper into the issue. Please follow us for thetest information.
Shangguan Ning shut off the screen and looked at the man reading a book on pregnancy, sitting next to her.
You did this, right?
It was a rhetorical question.
Jing Yichen put down the book and took her into his arms as he said calmly, Dont use theputer too often. The radiation is very bad for the child. Also, no more phone. You can leave it to me to deliver your messages. The router is not healthy either, so I will keep it shut and switch it on only when necessary.
Shangguan Ning leaned against his strong chest and answered with a small okay. She didnt care about the entire talk about the radiation and continued to ask, You did it so fast. Do you think Ji Bo would go crazy?
Jing Yichen had struck back only two days after the wedding, that too in such a shocking way. Apparently, he had been nning it for some time.
When Ji Bo and Yang Muyan got married in a hurry, it was apparent that it had been a spontaneous decision. But Jing Yichen had the countermeasure ready for them.
In this way, Family Ji was going to be confronted with tremendous pressure of rumor.
Family Ji is getting too bold. They even dare to take 20% shares of Jingsheng. Arent they afraid that they will die of overeating? They should have been prepared to be struck back hard when they decided to steal the meat. Dont worry, this is just the beginning. Something better is on the way.
...
The olddy of Family Ji had passed out in anger twice, already. She was a woman with an irritable temper. When she regained consciousness and thought of the crazy journalists outside, she almost fainted again.
Where is Ji Bo? The olddy bellowed. Where is that grandson of mine? Get him here now. What is going on? Didnt he say that Lan Yu is his beloved woman? How did she end up being the ugly girl from Family Yang?
Both Ji Minyu and Ji Minjue were beside the olddy. Ji Minjue had recovered from the therapy and was now taking care of his old mother.
He tried to defend Ji Bo. Dont get mad, mom, it might be a rumour. You know what Ji Bo is like. He never lies.
The olddy had not approved of Ji Bo marrying Lan Yu, but she finally retreated because Ji Minjue helped Ji Bo in fooling her by praising Lan Yu to the hilt. He imed that she was very wealthy even though she was not from a very renowned family.
Ji Minjue was more than willing to allow Ji Bo to marry Lan Yu. He had found out that Lan Yu was from an ordinary family and had no background. If a woman like her married Ji Bo, his children would have much less difficulty in dealing with Ji Bo in the future.
Ji Minyu, however, hated Jing Yichen to the deepest degree after she quit being the mayor. She was a prouddy who had not reconciled with her fate.
But she had never taken any action. She knew that she couldnt possibly do anything to Jing Yichen even when she was a mayor, let alone as an ordinary citizen. She was not a threat to him, at all.
After some thinking, Ji Minyu had decided to get close to Ji Bo.
She knew that Ji Minjue was far less capable than Ji Bo and his children were not as gifted and talented as Ji Bo.
Hence, Ji Minyu hade to an agreement with Ji Bo that they would sail in the same boat. She knew that something was wrong with Lan Yu but had no idea what it was. Ji Bo had kept the secret well concealed.
But now all was revealed.
Was Ji Bo courting death?
Marrying Yang Muyan basically meant that they had established an image of being Family Jings rival.
Family Ji was not a rival of Family Jing, otherwise she would not have been forced to step down and leave the political field.
Chapter 426 - Trouble Seeking
Chapter 426: Trouble Seeking
Ji Bo had never expected that Jing Yichen would use such a method.
But after a moment of careful contemtion, he realised that this was exactly Jing Yichens style. He often used standard methods and somehow they turned out to be excellent when he used them.
His phone kept ringing as if it would never stop.
Ji Bo stared at the screen with a terrible expression and tossed the phone aside when he caught sight of the caller C Aunt.
His family members kept calling him one after another and this time it was his aunt Ji Minyu. Ji Minjue had also called him a moment ago but he rejected all of them.
He got even more furious when he saw Yang Muyan sitting there calmly, busy painting her eyebrows.
Something weird was going on with this woman. She seemed to care about her appearance more and more. She kept doing her face day and night. Makeup did make her look better, but the minute she started to speak, her hoarse voice would undo everything.
Can you stop painting your face? Family Ji is right now in the middle of the scandal because of you. Should you not think about some countermeasures to help the family? I cant even answer the call let alone step out nor can I exin anything to them regarding your true identity.
Ji Bo sounded sullen. He was feeling extremely irritated with her at the moment.
It had been a very risky move to marry Yang Muyan. Not only her identity but also the truth about Lan Yus murder was already exposed. Due to this, many people would start disassociating with Family Ji and many affairs of Family Jis Enterprise would be affected. It was easy to predict that in the days toe, the stock price of Family Jis Enterprise would drop tremendously.
But Yang Muyan was busy applying make-up sitting in front of the mirror.
She was obsessed with the exquisite face which stared back at her from the mirror.
She had never wanted to look at the mirror before, and used to smash everything that would reflect her silhouette. She detested everything that might make her notice her disgusting face.
But now she was in love with her reflection. She had never done any makeup before, so she was quite unfamiliar with the process. But she kept learning through the inte and had progressed rapidly.
Her face was no longer scarily pale, because she had learnt how to use the foundation, primer and blusher.
Yang Muyan turned her face towards Ji Bo when she heard his furious voice and said calmly, It will be over soon. What are you so worried about?
Why would you be worried? You are not the one who has to bear the pressure and losses.
Ji Bo was about tosh out at her but then controlled himself.
Being with her all this while, he knew pretty well that throwing temper at Yang Muyan didnt help at all.
Ji Bo became increasingly furious, but he still tried to make himself sound normal. It wont be over so soon and if its not, you will have a tough time going out. No one knows that we are living here for the time being, but Jing Yichen is surely going to find out soon enough. Do you want all those journalistsing to this door?
Also, you wont benefit if Family Ji goes through too many losses. The stronger Family Ji gets, the bigger protection it can offer to you. If every other familybines together to go against us, we will soon lose our ground and wont be a match against Family Jing by that time. Do you want all of this to happen? We coborated to improve the prospects of Family Ji and to extinguish Family Jing rather than causing Family Ji to die first!
Some of Ji Bos words hit Yang Muyan. She suddenly stopped concentrating on her make-up and said hoarsely, Okay, I will figure something out. For now, just let the media do what they want. Anything that we say to them at this moment will be misconstrued. You better dont ept any interviews for the time being.
Ji Bo knew that he was not going to take any interviews even if Yang Muyan had told him not to. What was he supposed to say? He could neither deny nor admit Yang Muyans identity.
Ji Bo had expected that Yang Muyan would instantlye up with an effective countermeasure, but it turned out that she had no way out either.
Had he expected too much out of this woman?
She always had ideas up her sleeve butpared to Jing Yichen, she was not that good. Maybe she exceeded Jing Yichen only in ruthlessness. She could do anything to achieve her goal.
Jing Yichen was also quite lethal, but he only treated his rivals in this manner. He would never take the lives of someone irrelevant.
Ji Bos heart was filled withplicated emotions. He stood up and walked out.
He didnt want to spend even a single more moment in Yang Muyanspany. As it is, he came to this vi to only spend the nights. Most of the time, he preferred to stay at the hotel.
But he didnt dare return to the hotel right now because the journalists were on a lookout for him.
He thought for a second and decided to visit Jing Yiran instead.
But when he reached there, Ji Bos mood worsened.
Because he saw another woman whom he detested from the bottom of his heart C Tang Yun.
Thanks to Jing Yiran, Ji Bo had been dealing with Tang Yun in recent times. He truly believed that Tang Yun belonged to the same category of women as Ji Lili. The two of them didnt just look like each other, but had the same temperament C they were both ignorant and conceited women who were worthy of being pped hard on their faces.
Ji Bo did not understand why he kept running into only evil women. Why couldnt he just meet someone like Shangguan Ning who never chased after what did not belong to her and who could be satisfied with something simple.
Was it really because people of the same type hung out together, so Ji Bo could only be with those who were simr to him?
Jing Yiran had not yet recovered. He was lying in the bed whilst a tearful Tang Yun was sitting on the chair by his bedside.
Ha, our most conspicuous Master Ji is here! Jing Yiran sounded cheerful, maybe because Tang Yun had been tormented by Jing Yichen or maybe because Ji Bo had been tormented by Jing Yichen.
Where is your two-faced wife? I didnt see her clearly thest time I met her. But I didnt expect her to be such a famousdy of Family Yang. I apologize in case I caused any disrespect. I have huge admiration for the woman who managed to escape my fathers men!
This was thest topic Ji Bo wanted to talk about.
But Jing Yiran only liked starting the topics that made others ufortable. He should have known that Jing Yiran was fond of hurting others. The more pain people were in, the more excited he got. He was a heartless and a crazy guy.
Coming to Jing Yiran was simply seeking trouble.
But between the two, tolerating Jing Yiran was much better than facing Yang Muyan.
Chapter 427 - Troubled
Chapter 427: Troubled
At least, Jing Yiran didnt conceal things from him and even if he tried to do so, Ji Bo could see through him easily. Yang Muyan, however, was totally unfathomable. He felt as if his life would end the very next second because of her.
He had found himself not a crutch but a coffin!
Jing Yiran didnt care much about Ji Bos terrible expressions. His charming eyes were full of excitement and mischief.
Although he was Jing Yichens sworn enemy, he didnt enjoy a great rtionship with Ji Bo either. So, he was actually quite pleased to see Ji Bo fail in the battle against Jing Yichen.
My dear brother was almost killed because of the incident with Family Yang. He was in the ICU for a long time and my father nearly went mad. He even brought the near best hitman to our home just to find out about the hitman hired by Family Yang. But the guy killed himself by swallowing bullets. How sad!
Both Ji Bo and the teary eyed, Tang Yun got startled. Apparently, they had no idea what really happened at that time. All they knew was that Family Yang hired a killer but they had no idea that Jing Yichen had been so badly injured because of that. Nor did they know what Family Jing had done to destroy Family Yang overnight.
The truth turned out to be that Jing Yichen had almost died!
He was the heir whom Family Jing had spent so many efforts upon, cultivating. A man who created business miracles one after another. After he took over Jingsheng Enterprise, the business had increased rapidly. Ji Bo was one of the victims of his growth and was still quite worried about Jing Yichens methods.
If Jing Yichen died, then Jing Yiran would be the only heir left in Family Jing. But Jing Yiran was simply no match to Jing Yichen in any way!
No wonder Jing Zhongxiu got so furious and destroyed Family Yang. If Ji Bo had been in the position and had abundant capabilities, he would have done the same.
Also, you wouldnt have known that when the killer attempted the assassination the second time, I witnessed it. The bullet flew right in front of me and almost killed me. Luckily I dodged and escaped unharmed. But, the second attempt failed too, and Shangguan Ning ended up having an almost broken arm.
Jing Yiran was surely not going to admit that Shangguan Ning had been hurt due to his actions. He himself couldnt believe it till date.
What was the point of saving Shangguan Ning? Wouldnt it have been good had she died?
Ji Bo got startled. So Shangguan Ning had been injured...
Tang Yun, however, said fiercely, Wonderful! But why wasnt the bitch killed?
Her eyes brightened as an iea hit her. Oh right, I can also hire a hitman to kill Shangguan Ning!
Both Ji Bo and Jing Yiran turned to Tang Yun with a cold look.
But Tang Yun failed to notice that. She was immersed in her wonderful idea because she wanted Shangguan Ning to die desperately.
Jing Yiran instantly covered up his look. He ignored Tang Yun and continued to tease Ji Bo. Didnt they say that Yang Muyan is so hideous that even the devil may cry? Do you think that the face she has right now is a result of stic surgery? You do have special taste, indeed.
Ji Bo thought of the past rumors about Yang Muyans looks and matched it against how she was obsessed with makeup right now. But he replied calmly. I am not Yang Muyans type. She went to the hospital the following day of our wedding and met her old me.
Startled, Jing Yirans eyes widened. You mean... Mu Qing?!
The rumor that Yang Muyan was obsessed with Mu Qing had been known across the entire A City. After so many years, she was still holding the torch for him?
Jing Yiranughed and felt extremely cheerful!
Mu Qing was the scumbag who gave him the needle because of which his virility was affected.
It was the most humiliating incident of his life!
If he still couldnt enjoy the pleasure of sex after the effect of the needle wore off, Jing Yiran swore that he was going to kill Mu Qing.
Seeing that Jing Yiran had been distracted sessfully, Ji Bo felt relieved inside his heart.
He truly didnt want to hear one more thing about Yang Muyan.
He hade to Jing Yiran to discuss how to deal with Jing Yichen rather than to be teased.
Both of them were holding arge portion of shares of the opposite side of the families, so in some way, they were in the same boat.
But with Tang Yun around, Ji Bo was not going to discuss anything meaningful with Jing Yiran. She was a brainless woman. What if she leaked something?
Even though Ji Bo refused to talk with Tang Yun, she still held onto him, tightly.
President Ji, can you lend me some money? I am in a serious cash crunch.
Tang Yun didnt feel any shame when she asked him for money.
She hade to Jing Yiran to borrow money, but he looked much poorer than her also currently.
During the past few days, Tang Yun had been going through a terrible time. She had run out of all economic resources and was just one step away from sleeping on the street.
She didnt dare contact the men behind her, because as soon as she reached out to them, Jing Yichen would get them all!
She didnt dare to take any more risks. Jing Yichen was keeping her alive, only because he wanted to find out the identity of the men behind her. Many of them were already dead.
Jing Yichen would not let go of anyone who had something to do with this incident. Several men who had been well hidden were already caught and the remaining ones were temporarily safe for now, thanks to the well concealed secret.
Tang Yun knew that after he killed all those men, it would be her turn!
Recently, she had found that something weird was going on with her body, which caused stinging pain every now and then. She went to the hospital for an examination and found that there were thirteen miniscule silver needles hidden inside her body. None of the hospitals of A City dared to bring out the needles, because that might kill her instantly.
But if the needles remained inside her, the doctor predicted that those hair-thin needles would flow with her blood and then enter her heart.
When that happens, she would die for sure.
And they had predicted that it would not take more than half a year for this to happen.
Moreover, she had to tolerate tremendous pain which these needles caused every time.
It was pure torture, one that even a well-trained person like Tang Yun would not be able to tolerate for long!
Chapter 428 - Nervousness Before Wedding
Chapter 428: Nervousness Before Wedding
Tang Yun was desperate to go abroad. She needed to go to the US and find the best doctor to remove the needles.
But she was not capable of travelling abroad. Jing Yichen had made some arrangements with the customs office because of which her passport had been dered invalid and she was not able to board either a ne or a ferry.
Tang Yun was getting increasingly scared.
This way of slow torment was causing her much more pain than getting killed instantly.
Tang Yun became extremely scared whenever she thought of her impending death after six months! The fear was tormenting her day and night.
But at the moment, she had no energy to worry about something which would happen after six months. As of today, she had no money left. At this rate, she would be homeless soon and starve to death.
She also needed enough money to hire a hitman that could kill Shangguan Ning.
If she must die after six months, then she wanted to get Shangguan Ning to die before her. How dare Shangguan Ning live when she was not going to!
You want to borrow money from me?
Ji Bo looked at Tang Yun in slight astonishment but he sneered within.
Who would take care of her except for Jing Yichen?
And now, even Jing Yichen had stopped taking care of her.
Without his support, Tang Yun couldnt live for even one more day. The things she was wearing, the house she used to live in and the luxurious sports car which she used to drive, were all purchased by Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen used to treat her like a princess. Even his cousin Zhao Anan had not been treated in this way.
Ji Bo knew a great deal about Tang Yun and Jing Yichen from Jing Yiran, but he had no idea why Jing Yichen suddenly recalled all that he had given to Tang Yun.
No matter what happened, Ji Bo was not going to be the payer when even Jing Yichen didnt want to be one.
He earned money with his efforts, day and night. The money didnt just fall from the sky.
His money was already being used upon Ji Lili, the idiot and that had already driven him crazy. He was not going to support Tang Yun as well.
She was iming to borrow the money but she had no way of returning it. The money was not going to be paid back at all.
Ji Bo turned her down bluntly. Sorry, Ms. Tang. I dont have any money.
Tang Yun had not expected that Ji Bo would refuse her so fast. She begged him in a pitiful tone, Brother Ji, I really have no way out. That is why I am borrowing money from you. I dont need much, one million will be enough. I am not doing well and I need the money to visit the hospital. I will definitely return the money to you when I recover.
She couldnt possibly say that she was going to live only for six months, otherwise Ji Bo was not going to lend her a single penny.
Ji Bo sneered within whilst keeping an elegant expression on the face, Ms. Ji, I am telling the truth. I have no money with me. I am on a very edgy ce and I almost want to kill myself because of Jing Yichens pressure. I cant move a single penny since everyone in Family Ji is keeping an eye on me. I cant do anything!
Ji Bo, of course, had a million at his disposal, but he was not going to give it to Tang Yun.
Just listen to her! She didnt think one million was that much.
No one except for Jing Yichen would give Tang Yun millions or tens of millions of yuan.
Ordinary people couldnt earn one million throughout their entire life. Ji Bo was rich, but he never splurged.
Also, it was true that he was not doing well.
Ji Bo nced at Jing Yiran who was getting injected and then at Tang Yun who had be skinnier. He suddenly realized that everyone who went against Jing Yichen ended up being in a horrible situation!
Maybe they will get worse in the future.
Jing Yichen was like an invulnerable mountain that would crush everyone who tried to break him!
Jing Yichen, who was on the minds of all three of them, was currently on a helicopter with Shangguan Ning. They were heading towards the UK.
There was only one week left before their wedding took ce.
All preparations had beenpleted and the invitations were sent out to whoever necessary by Jing Zhongxiu. He had made the list because Jing Zhongxiu was still the master of Family Jing.
This was more than a wedding. It was a symbol of Jing Yichen taking over Family Jing.
Jing Yichen was fully prepared to take over Family Jing. He had been getting trained since he was young and after a long time of intensive preparation, he felt no qualms in undertaking the heavy responsibility.
What was making him nervous though, was the wedding itself.
He needed to make sure that the wedding was held in a way that made Shangguan Ning happy.
Arent we going there early? Shangguan Ning had not expected that she needed to go to the UK so many days in advance. Were they going to do rehearsals?
It seemed that when other couples got married, they needed to go through many rehearsals.
Sitting next to Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen said with a smile, We can have fun for some days before the wedding, so that you are rxed during the wedding.
Actually, Jing Yichen wanted to make sure that all was well at the venue.
But he didnt want Shangguan Ning to stay alone in A City, so he brought her along. In this way, she could also check the details and add her opinion.
Sure enough, Shangguan Ning said, Yichen, I am so nervous. My heart throbs so fast before the function has even started. Will there be many people attending the wedding? What if I make a mistake?
Jing Yichen chuckled. He hadnt expected that Shangguan Ning would be more nervous than him. He somehow felt relieved.
Dont worry, ignore everyone at the event except for me. Treat them as air.
He was still so bossy!
Shangguan Ning smiled.
She did look forward to attending her wedding. It was very romantic to have the wedding in front of so many witnesses and make the promise of a lifetime.
The couple took a short rest after reaching their destination. Post that, Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning went to try the clothes.
Shangguan Ning had put on some weight after getting pregnant. Although her belly had not started showing yet, the wedding gown needed to be adjusted a little.
Also, the high heeled shoes made earlier had been reced by t ballerinas now and she needed to try them on, as well.
When Shangguan Ning was trying the wedding gown and the shoes, Jing Yichen was waiting for her patiently sitting on the sofa.
She looked very, very beautiful in the wedding dress and Jing Yichen couldnt get his eyes off her. Then he walked straight up to her, and helped her with the zippers.
The designer said to Shangguan Ning with a smile, Your husband is so considerate!
Shangguan Ning smiled. Yes, he is.
Chapter 429 - The Unexpected (Part One)
Chapter 429: The Unexpected (Part One)
Compared to the home country, UK was much safer.
None of the forces of families in A City, be it those of Family Ji or Yang Muyan, could be as strong as those of Family Jing in the UK. Family Jing had been rooted in the UK for a very long time.
As the real identity of Yang Muyan was revealed and the news spread all over the City, another shocking piece of news appeared. As per the article, an infight was going on in Family Ji where the uncle and the nephew were fighting against each other. Ji Bo hadbined forces with Yang Muyan and tried to take over the inheritance of Family Ji and forced Ji Minjue to step down so that Ji Bo could be the President, instead.
Again, Family Ji became the hottest topic of A City. It was being said that Ji Bo dared not show up in public, because he would be hounded by the journalists.
The Old Lady of Family Ji, however, got so furious that she copsed yet again and was sent to the hospital.
The stock price of Family Jis Enterprise dropped drastically and thepanys staff started panicking.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning, however, were not affected by this turmoil. They were spending time in the UK, leisurely and were busy making preparations for the wedding.
One day before the wedding, the bridesmaids and the best men, namely Zhao Anan and Mu Qing, Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun reached the destination. Other guests, including the members of Family Jing, Huang Lihan and Shangguan Xings family, also came to the site.
Every guest was residing at a five star hotel not far away from the church where the wedding was going to be held. The hotel belonged to Jingsheng Enterprise and was one of the many more such properties in the UK.
Shangguan Ning was indeed very happy about the uing wedding, but Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun were even more excited than her. They kept talking for the entire day until Jing Yichen came to drive them away. Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun finally left reluctantly.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning had also moved to the hotel for convenience. There was a long distance between the church and the vi, and Jing Yichen didnt want Shangguan Ning to get too tired.
The gown and the shoes for the wedding had been delivered, and Shangguan Ning caressed them happily.
The gown was white and alongside, there were three sets of red Chinese gowns also sent along with matching shoes.
Each garment was exquisitely made and costed a crazy amount.
But Shangguan Ning didnt care about the price. She only cared about what they meant.
She was going to keep these clothes carefully so that decadester when she was old and saw these beautiful clothes, she would still be thronged with happy memories.
Jing Yichens suit was also delivered alongside Shangguan Nings by the designers. It was a white, hand stitched suit with a white shirt and a matching tie. It was a traditional color for weddings in the UK, which symbolized happiness.
Jing Yichen barely had any white suits in his wardrobe. Most of his suits were dark in color, steady and mature, just like him.
Shangguan Ning recalled what he looked like when he had tried the suit on, a couple of days ago.
He looked just like the perfect prince of a fairy tale.
People were visual beings. They could not stop themselves from taking another nce at beautiful things and falling for them.
Shangguan Ning was no exception. She had been living with Jing Yichen for so long and knew him inside out but she still couldnt help getting attracted to him.
It was more than the appearance. It was his inborn charisma which made him nearly irresistible.
At this moment, she fell for him one more time.
Luckily this man had be hers, otherwise she might not have been able to prevent herself from approaching him and fighting for him.
Shangguan Ning stretched out her hands and caressed Jing Yichens suit with a smile.
She was going to be his bride!
A smile also hovered over Jing Yichens lips when he saw the happy expression on Shangguan Nings face.
He was so excited that he could hardly keep himself calm. He had not been this nervous for a very long time.
He didnt want anything wrong to happen at the wedding. He wanted to give the woman he loved, the perfect most wedding.
Jing Yichen went to her and held her softly from behind.
They were silent but their heart and soul were connected and didnt need any words.
Jing Yichen took care of most matters for the wedding. Shangguan Ning didnt need to do a thing. On top of this, Jing Yichen had to manage Jingsheng Enterprise and Ji Bo and Yang Muyan at the same time.
Therefore, Jing Yichen looked a bit exhausted, while Shangguan Ning was radiant.
Shangguan Ning turned around and got a bit concerned by his looks.
These matters are endless. Dont tire yourself out,pletely. We are here for our wedding, right?
Jing Yichen chuckled and said, I am not tired. Everything is worth it if I can marry you.
Shangguan Ning pursed her lips and clung to him. But I will be unhappy if you get tired.
My wife should be concerned about me as I should be about her. You must tell me if you feel ufortable tomorrow during the wedding. Dont take too much pressure. You and the child are the most important in all this.
Shangguan Ning nodded. Yes, I know. But I am not that spoiled. It is just a wedding, I am sure I will be fine. Dont worry!
They were still talking when a noise came from outside the room.
Jing Yichen frowned slightly but then his expression rxed.
He kissed Shangguan Nings lips and said, Wait for me here in the room, I will go and take a look.
Shangguan Ning nodded and agreed smilingly.
She was not worried that something might happen here. Jing Yichen and his father had made strict security arrangements. There was no possibility of any issuesing up.
Shangguan Ning turned to put the wedding gown and dresses into the wardrobe and had just closed the wardrobe when the rooms door opened.
She turned her head with a smile. So soon...
Before she said anything more, Shangguan Nings smile froze when she saw the man at the door. Then she fainted.
Chapter 430 - The Unexpected (Part Two)
Chapter 430: The Unexpected (Part Two)
In the long corridor which had been decorated with magnificent embellishment, Jing Yiran was holding onto Mo Lans arm with one hand and had ced the other behind her back. He was supporting her and looked very devoted to her, just like a filial grandson.
But he didnt do a good job at it and ended up looking cold and proud, ruining the atmosphere which he had tried to create.
Dad, I am here just to attend my brothers wedding and to pass my blessing to him and my sister-inw. I wont cause any trouble, please dont worry. I know what asion it is and I will not humiliate you.
He talked in an upright way as if he had grown up overnight.
Dressed in a ck suit, a white shirt and a navy coloured tie, Jing Yiran had dyed his hair back to ck and sounded like an obedient and docile child.
But Jing Zhongxiu knew Jing Yiran very well. He might have changed on the surface but not from within. If Jing Yiran could ever change, then the sun would rise from the west the next morning.
He was talking so loudly as if trying to make everyone hear what he was saying. Was it not causing trouble?
I dont have a son like you. Get out. Your presence is not wee here.
Jing Zhongxiu looked rather displeased and sounded very cold. His gaze was not fixed at Jing Yiran but at Mo Lan who was standing next to Jing Yiran.
Apparently, Mo Lan was the one who had let Jing Yiran in.
Jing Zhongxiu had issued an enclosure order to the hotel and no guests were allowed inside unless they had the invites.
Jing Yiran had not got any invitation. Mo Lan must have managed to bring him in.
It was his sons wedding the following day, which was the most significant thing that was happening in Family Jing in the past few years but Mo Lan still wanted Jing Yiran to be involved. Jing Zhongxiu was quite displeased.
He almost lost his patience towards Mo Lan.
His life had been ruined because of Mo Lans stubbornness. Was she going to ruin Jing Yichens as well, now?
Was she really not intelligent enough to get a clear idea of what was happening or did she simply not care about Jing Yichen?
She had always favored Jing Yiran and Jing Zhongxiu hadnt objected to it. After all, Jing Yichen was not good at pleasing the olddy like Jing Yiran. But he was the heir of Family Jing and she needed to have a limit to her favouritism for the other child.
Jing Yiran couldnt havee to the wedding with a pure purpose. He and Jing Yichen had been enemies for years and wanted each other dead every time they met.
Offer blessings to Jing Yichen? Even Mo Lan couldnt have believed that.
It could be seen clearly that Jing Yiran didnt feel a thing for Family Jing when he sold those shares of Jingsheng Enterprise, without any hesitation. He had never cared about Family Jing and if anything happened to Family Jing, Jing Yiran might be happy rather than upset.
He had always thought Family Jing had owed him something, but as a matter of fact, it had been he and Zhang Rong who owed Family Jing and Jing Yichen!
Jing Zhongxiu had always been decisive and he never took back any decision he had made.
Since Jing Yiran had been driven out of Family Jing and no longer belonged to the family, he had no qualifications of attending the wedding. Otherwise, what Family Jing said would mean nothing!
You have already been removed from Family Jing. I dont care where you go, but you are not wee here. If your intent is to ruin this wedding, then I suggest that you put a stop to your imagination right now. You know pretty well what Family Jing can do to anyone who goes against the family.
Jing Zhongxiu looked at the guests who wereing out of their rooms and then lowered his voice.
It was better to keep the ugly family affairs between themselves.
But Jing Yiran spoke in a purposefully loud voice as if he had seen through what he was thinking, Dad, I am really here just to give my brother blessing. He will marry only once in his life. You cant possibly turn me down, can you? Even if you dont want me as your son, I still have your blood running in my veins. I must attend the wedding!
You are the master of Family Jing and I cant force you into doing anything. But you should not turn him away when Ran offers his sincerity. A family should be united on this wonderful asion. What is your objection to letting Ran attend this? Even the outsiders are allowed to the wedding so, why cant the family be here then?
Mo Lan defended Jing Yiran as she held his hands and stared at Jing Zhongxiu, sounding full of grudges.
Jing Zhongxiu pressed down the anger in his heart and said expressionlessly, Can he tell which one is the outsider and which one is family? He is here to watch the show and you are messing around with him too. Since when did you start to care about our family?
Annoyed, Mo Lan said with a low voice as she saw the guests around, What do you mean by Ran is messing around? Nothing will happen if he is allowed in the hotel. You are the one who is making a fuss here. Move from here and let Ran rest. He has not fully recovered and even travelled in this state. He needs to lie down.
Jing Zhongxiu didnt move an inch. And the security guards behind him didnt move, either. They were not going to let Jing Yiran in.
If Jing Yiran was allowed to enter in front of the guests, then it would mean that he had epted him as part of Family Jing, again.
The guests shared a close rtionship with Family Jing and possessed great power. They were either the masters or the heirs of the families and it was important how he treated Jing Yiran in front of them.
If he epted him, then Jing Yiran would have easy ess to coborating with these people. That was not what Jing Zhongxiu wanted to happen.
But if he turned Jing Yiran down at the door in front of these people, then any coboration with him would be much more difficult. It was quite a risk if anyone wanted to coborate with those who were not admitted to Family Jing.
I was not joking about driving him out of Family Jing. He is not a part of the family anymore and has no right to be at the wedding after he sold the shares of the enterprise to others.
Jing Zhongxiu sounded poised and emotionless. But Mo Lan knew her son well. She knew that Jing Zhongxiu was absolutely furious.
But she was not scared of the furious Jing Zhongxiu. She was displeased by the fact that Jing Yiran had been driven out forcibly and wanted to scold him for a long time because of that.
Chapter 431 - The Unexpected (Part Three)
Chapter 431: The Unexpected (Part Three)
But Mo Lan couldnt do that when there were so many spectators around.
She still had some rationality left inside her. She knew that she shouldnt humiliate her son in front of the outsiders.
Mo Lan stared at Jing Zhongxiu with clenched teeth and Jing Zhongxiu didnt look at her with any love, either.
If he doesnt want to leave himself, then I will have to ask someone to throw him out. I dont care about you either, when you dont care about Family Jing that much. The worst case will be me asking for punishment from my father for unintentionally humiliating Family Jing in front of so many people.
Jing Zhongxiu took a pause before looking at Jing Yiran. He then said to him in a quiet but cold tone, If any outsider dares to make trouble on the night before the wedding of the heir of Family Jing, he might not make it alive. Are you sure you want to stay back and make trouble?
Jing Yiran was creeped out by Jing Zhongxius gaze.
He knew that his father was not bluffing at this moment.
All of a sudden, Jing Yiran felt cold sweat trickling down his back. But Mo Lan became furious.
Even tigers dont eat their own children. How can you be so cruel towards your own son? You must teach him well when he makes a mistake. You have never evenid eyes upon him. I was the one who brought him up. If you ever treated him like you treat Chen, he would not have been much worse than Chen.
Maybe you have forgotten that I am more lethal than a tiger. Jing Zhongxiu was not moved by her words. I have killed many people and he will just add to that number. Also, I never thought of him as my son. Jing Yichen is my only son. This is your boy, not mine.
If Jing Yiran had not done anything that went against Family Jing, Jing Zhongxiu would have kept him safe for his entire life.
Jing Zhongxiu used to forgive all his shenanigans and didnt favor anyone when Jing Yichen and he were in a fight. Instead, Jing Zhongxiu would only say that Jing Yichen would be the one getting the punishment.
Jing Yichen had been hit many times but Jing Yiran was never punished.
But Jing Yiran was on apletely wrong track, nowadays. He threw away the properties of Family Jing and had dared to join hands with outsiders to set traps for his own family, intending to ruin Family Jing.
Jing Zhongxiu had no hesitation in facing Family Jings enemies.
Hearing that Jing Zhongxiu had no love for him and would even kill him calmly, Jing Yiran felt his heart fill with resentment.
He had no idea what wrong had he done. Why did Jing Zhongxiu favor the other one so much?
The reason why he decided to give the shares of Family Jing to Ji Bo was because he didnt want Family Jing to take away his shares.
There was no way that they could get the shares back if they were given to Family Ji.
It was not safe to have the shares worth tens of billions with him. After he got the shares, Jing Yiran had always been worried that Jing Zhongxiu or Jing Yichen would take those away. So, he took Yang Muyans suggestion of exchanging the shares of Jingsheng with those of Family Ji.
He hade to the agreement with Ji Bo that when he acquired the entire Jingsheng, the two families would return each others shares.
In this way, he and Ji Bo ended up being in the same boat and would have to help each other to get reciprocal benefits.
When Jing Yiran heard what Jing Zhongxiu said, he realized that what he had done was totally wise. Good that Yang Muyan had thought of this idea, otherwise Jing Zhongxiu would have taken back all the shares when he got annoyed oneday.
But at the moment, only he could get back the shares and even if Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen wanted to kill him, they would need to think twice before taking that step.
Jing Yiran soon had many ideas shing across his mind. Right at that moment, he looked up and saw Jing Yichening his way whilst the audience in the long corridor were moving away from him.
Jing Yichen had such charisma that all the guests seemed to treat him politely. Jing Yiran got terribly jealous when he saw the scene.
He had never been treated in this manner.
He was not the heir of Family Jing and was never allowed to touch the business of Family Jing. So when everyone else treated him politely as the second master of Family Jing on the surface, they were alsoughing at him for being the ck sheep of the family.
But soon Jing Yiran soon adjusted his emotions and was no longer furious. Instead, he looked proud.
The fish had taken the bait. Jing Yichen was here!
A genius? Excellent heir of Family Jing? A powerful man? Well see.
Jing Yichen noticed the small smile on Jing Yirans face as he approached. The smile was sinister, and provocative, making Jing Yichen frown slightly.
But soon the smile was gone. Instead, he called him Brother politely and then said in a serious tone, I am here to attend your wedding. Here is the wedding gift for you and sister-inw.
He scooped out an exquisite silk box and passed it to him.
But Jing Yichen didnt take it.
No one knew Jing Yiran better than him. People tended to know more about theirpetitors than their friends.
Jing Yiran was here to make trouble.
No wonder he had been so quiet these days. He was waiting for this very moment.
But the security of the hotel was of the highest quality, so it was not so easy for Jing Yiran to make trouble through others. That was why he came here by himself.
If you can bring Jingshengs shares back, you are not only allowed to attend the wedding, you will also be given back the identity of being a part of Family Jing. That is the gift I want. I am sure you are sincere enough to offer it.
Jing Yichen startled the three people standing there with his words.
Jing Yiran had never expected that he would say something like this. He had just been thrown back to the disadvantageous status by him within a second.
The shares belong to Family Jing and I just want you to get them back. That is the best way for you to show your loyalty.
Jing Yichen sounded nuetral but also intimidating at the same time. Suddenly, he turned to Mo Lan and said, Isnt that right, Grandma?
Mo Lan, who had been surprised turned to Jing Yiran and said with a frown, Ran, can you get the shares back?
Jing Yichen showed a cold smile and gazed at Jing Yiran with a fiery look. Looking at him standing there silently, he said, You have the 20% shares of Family Jis Enterprise, right? If you cant get back Jingshengs shares, you can give us Family Jis shares. Its your choice.
Chapter 432 - The Unexpected (Part Four)
Chapter 432: The Unexpected (Part Four)
If not, then that is the proof that you are breaking up with Family Jing, right? In that case, I have nothing more to say to you. After all, father isnt driving you out of the family, it is you who wants to establish your ownpany.
Having said the words, Jing Yichen turned to Mo Lan and asked again, Isnt that right, Grandma?
Jing Yichen barely called Mo Lan Grandma. But he chose to address her so deliberately at this moment.
Mo Lan nodded involuntarily and mumbled, Yes...
Jing Yirans expression was turning worse by the minute.
What was going on with Jing Yichen? He never behaved like this.
He always used violence to punch him and hated to reason with him through words.
But today he was talking reasonably.
This could not continue. Mo Lan was his only supporter in Family Jing and he had been expecting that Mo Lan could help him get some properties of Family Jing.
Cold sweat soaked Jing Yirans shirt, which stuck to his body, making him feel ufortable.
I am a part of Family Jing. Why must I hand in anything? What rule is that? Dad has driven me out and now you are saying that it is my fault? I have been fooled by Ji Bo when it came to the shares exchange but I never wanted to betray Family Jing. You are putting wrong charges on me with your clever words.
Fists clenched, Jing Yiran started to argue feebly.
Within a few seconds, more and more people were gathered in the corridor.
Jing Yichen nodded at Tiger next to him, gesturing to him that everyone should go back to their rooms.
He was not speaking with a low voice and everyone present had heard what he said. What Jing Yiran had done was unforgivable and Family Jing already gave him a chance to overturn it. But he gave up the chance and had decided to stand against Family Jing instead.
People were not stupid. They all understood what he meant.
Even Mo Lan understood what was going on.
She stared at the grandson whom she had raised for thirty years. She couldnt believe that what he was doing was against Family Jing and he was out to destroy them.
Ran, your brother is right. Return the shares and Family Jing will surely allow you back. If youck money to spend, I have got enough. You can buy whatever you want. It is okay if the shares of Family Jing are with them, as long as your brother gets hold of the shares of Family Ji. He will definitely get our shares back. He is capable, isnt he?
The story was unfolding in a different manner from what Jing Yiran had expected. He was losing control of the situation.
But he had achieved his purpose of being here and it was time for him to leave.
Grandma, it is not that simple. I can get back what we have lost. My brother doesnt need to clean up the mess for me.
Suddenly, Jing Yiran had hands over his chest and showed an agonised expression. Then he held Mo Lans arms and said, My chest hurts badly now, maybe the wounds have opened again. Since father isnt letting me in, I cane back when I get the shares.
Having said the words, he left the hotel instantly, despite Mo Lans calling him back.
Seeing his retreating figure, Jing Yichen felt a bit anxious.
Jing Yiran had not behaved normally today. He was a strong person who would never retreat, no matter the circumstances. He would continue to fight against him no matter what.
Pressing down the anxiety inside his heart, Jing Yichen said to Tiger behind him, Pass the order that anyone not on the list, is not allowed in. Keep the gates guarded!
Tiger quickly started to spread the order.
He understood that Jing Yichen needed to stress to everyone that even if Jing Yiran was with the olddy today, he should not be allowed in.
Luckily they had not fought today, otherwise the wedding would have been impacted, had the groom been injured.
Mo Lan wasnt assured about Jing Yiran, so she followed him out.
This was the only fancy hotel in the neighborhood and she was worried that Jing Yiran would have no ce to stay overnight. What was more, he had not yet recovered from the wound and might get sick again.
Jing Zhongxiu patted his son on the shoulders and said inposure, Get back to the room and rest well. Tomorrow is an important day for you and Ning. Leave everything else onto me.
Although Jing Yiran didnt make a fuss today, many people had seen the tension between the father and son.
Jing Zhongxiu must deliver the message to everyone present that Jing Yiran had been driven out and was not part of the family any more.
Jing Yichen nodded and then turned to walk back to his room.
As soon as he went inside the room, he frowned. All the lights were off.
It was quite dark inside the room, but Jing Yichen, who had been well trained in the darkness, adjusted his vision easily.
He was a bit confused as to why Shangguan Ning had gone to bed so early. She would not sleep alone without him, and also would always keep the light on for him.
Jing Yichen took off his coat and hung it up to the clothes hanger, changed into the slippers and entered the bedroom.
The moonlight pierced the window and sprinkled over the entire room, making the room look beautiful.
Under the nket, next to the window was a silhouette, slender and beautiful.
A light fragrance could be sensed in the room as well.
Jing Yichen reached the bedside and said sharply, Get up now, if you dont want to die.
But the figure in the bed didnt move.
In the luxurious presidential suite, a gun was loaded and aimed at the beautiful silhouette under the nket without hesitation.
Jing Yichen looked very cold. The veins on his forehead popped out and his fingers were trembling.
He wanted to kill now!
But this person couldnt die yet!
It was deadly silent, even the air seemed to have stopped moving.
The figure in the nket eventually moved.
She stood up from the bed and aimed the gun screwed with silencer at Jing Yichen as she said in astonishment, How did find out that I am not Shangguan Ning?
Chapter 433 - Lust
Chapter 433: Lust
The woman sitting on the bed had a ck pistol in her hand. In order to look like Shangguan Ning, she was wearing a wig that had the same length as Shangguan Nings hair. Plus, she was almost as tall as Shangguan Ning and they shared simr temperaments. Overall, she looked much like Shangguan Ning.
The bedroom was very dark despite the moonlight shining through the window. Also, she had covered her face with a nket.
Tang Yun rose from the bed slowly and stood on the carpet, barefoot. The pistol in her hands was aimed at Jing Yichen at all times.
She had no idea what she had done wrong so that Jing Yichen immediately got to know that she was not Shangguan Ning.
How could you tell the difference? You didnt even see me. How could you tell that I am not Shangguan Ning? Werent you worried that you would shoot the wrong person?
Tang Yun was aggressive and had always been impulsive. But right now, she looked like a totally different person.
Had she not talked impulsively as she usually did, it would have been difficult for anyone to believe that this woman with the gun in her hand, was Tang Yun.
Jing Yichens eyes were red with anger and he sounded extremely cold. Where is Ning?!
Of course he could tell if the woman lying in the bed was his beloved woman or not.
How could he ever make a mistake in telling his wife apart from other women?
However much Tang Yun disguised herself, she could never be Shangguan Ning. The most conspicuous point was that when he approached her, he had felt something was different.
After spending so much time with Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen was extremely familiar with her hair. Also, there had been some other small details that made Jing Yichen suspicious.
He loved this woman so deeply that he remembered all of her habits.
It was an important day for them, the night before their wedding. She had been excited and nervous, caressing her clothes just a minute ago. How could she fall asleep so fast?
Unless she was very tired or sick, she would go to bed alone. Otherwise, she would be waiting for him until they could sleep together in each others arms.
She would never switch off all the lights. Even when she was sleeping, she would have one light on. She often slept in a good posture. She would be lying in the bed and facing him. However, Tang Yuns legs were outstretched and she had her back towards him, instead.
Ning never used perfume. Also, Jing Yichen didnt like perfumes, either. But there was a scent across the room and it was a fragrance he had once smelled on Tang Yun. Most importantly, there was another kind of scent hidden under the perfume C the philtre.
What a n!
Jing Yichen had been drawn outside the room, so that Shangguan Ning could be taken away. Then he was to be drugged so that he would get unconscious and have sex with the woman in the bed.
Their wedding was taking ce the following day. If he really had fallen for the n and it was found that he had been with another woman the following morning by Shangguan Ning, the consequence would have been beyond imagination!
Jing Zhongxiu fell for this trap years back and now, someone was using the same trap on him.
Jing Yiran must havee up with this idea.
Jing Yiran had been here to make trouble tonight. He must have known that Tang Yun had achieved the purpose, so he left in a hurry. No wonder his behaviour had been abnormal today. He had hatched a conspiracy, a huge one.
He had been in the corridor of the same floor, but he had not seen Shangguan Ning being taken away. Even the security guards of the hotel had not been aware of any movement either. Therefore, Shangguan Ning must be unconscious.
Jing Yichen became increasingly furious inside his heart when he thought about this.
He couldnt possibly imagine what he would do if anything happened to Shangguan Ning. He was definitely going to get mental!
God knew how much he wanted to put a bullet into Tang Yuns head right now.
But first he needed to bring Shangguan Ning back to his side.
Goddamn it! He had lost Ning again!
Where is Ning? Speak!! Jing Yichens voice was full of stormy fury. He bellowed so loudly that Tang Yun, who was just a few metres away from him, felt the sound of thundering.
Tang Yun had never seen Jing Yichen so out of control. He could be really furious, but he often had a cold face, unlike now, when he looked so terrifyingly scary!
Pressing down the fright inside her, Tang Yun made up her mind, straightened up her back and aimed at Jing Yichen with the pistol without moving an inch. She was not afraid of death any more.
But she must not allow Jing Yichen to lose his temper now, or he would kill her immediately. She didnt want to die right now. She must live on, because she had not got hold of the properties of Family Jing and had not realized any of her wishes!
Therefore, Tang Yun thought it would be proper if she consoled Jing Yichen a bit.
She is in a safe ce, dont worry. She will be fine. She wont die before I finish my task. As long as you treat me well, I guarantee that she wont get injured. But if I am injured, Shangguan Ning would get much more seriously injured.
However, what Tang Yun said didnt have the desired effect. Instead, Jing Yichen got even more furious.
He wanted to know where Shangguan Ning was and make sure that she waspletely safe. He didnt believe what Tang Yun said because he knew her too well to know that Shangguan Ning wouldnt be fine in her hands.
If Nin loses one hair, you will all die with her!
Jing Yichen was trying very hard not to shoot Tang Yun. One more wrong word from her would make him pull the trigger and kill this woman.
The temperature in the bedroom was perfect, neither too cold nor too hot. But sweat had started to trickle down alongside Jing Yichens perfect face. He waspletely soaked just after a few seconds!
Tang Yun was a bit terrified by what Jing Yichen said, but she still decided to strip herself naked.
She only had a loose dress on tonight and was wearing nothing under the dress either.
She was nowpletely naked in front of Jing Yichen.
She blushed slightly after doing this and gazed at Jing Yichen, trying to see the change in his expression.
Chapter 434 - Death
Chapter 434: Death
Initially, it had been Shangguan Rouxue and Jing Yiran who made the n for today. But considering that Shangguan Rouxues face was ruined by Yang Muyan and she had turned into some sort of a psychopath, the n had been dramatically reversed by Yang Muyan.
Therefore, it was Tang Yun who stood in front of Jing Yichen, tonight.
It would have been too big an ask from that bitch, Shangguan Rouxue to aplish this feat. Therefore, Tang Yun was the best candidate to carry out this n. After all, no one else was as obsessed by Jing Yichen as much as she was.
Tang Yun threw the pistol away. She was not worried about Jing Yichen killing her. After all, he would not be able to find Shangguan Ning if she was killed.
Completely naked, she climbed onto the bed and kneeled in front of Jing Yichen with her perky breasts standing out. Then she said in a lustful voice, Brother Yichen, just take me. I can also give birth to a baby for you. If you sleep with me tonight, then Shangguan Ning would be back safe and sound, I promise!
Tang Yuns skin was white and her shape was slender. Her waist was pretty and legs, long and snowy. Most men would fall for a woman with such a beautiful body.
But in the eyes of Jing Yichen, Tang Yun was nothing but a skeleton.
In the past few years, he has witnessed many naked women climbing on his bed to show off their beauty in front of him.
But Jing Yichen had fallen for none. That was why he had started to suspect that there was something wrong with his sexual orientation.
Tang Yuns bare body could not stir a thing inside his heart. He was totally focussed upon finding Shangguan Ning.
What Tang Yun said, also didnt register in Jing Yichens head.
He aimed the gun at Tang Yuns head and spoke in a measured tone. I will count to three. If you dont tell me the truth, you will die today.
Tang Yun had not expected that Jing Yichen would not be moved by her body at all.
She had been with several men earlier and all of them threw themselves at her feet when they spotted her body. She was pretty confident about her lure and knew that she was a sexy girl, one who was fatally attractive to men.
But this ace that always worked was no longer functional in this case!
She knew that Jing Yichen was extremely determined and seemed to be invulnerable to women, so she didnt think that he would submit to her quickly. But she had believed that he would be affected for at least one second but it turned out that he waspletely unmoved.
He behaved as if he was looking at his own reflection. There was no change in his tone, expression or behavior.
The philtre had been ced in the room so as to awaken the desire of the people present. As a result, she was getting more and more excited but Jing Yichen was not at all affected.
That was impossible! She had put arge quantity of drugs above the bed.
What Tang Yun did not know was that the philtre which Yang Muyan had tried so hard to get from the ck market, had no effect on Jing Yichen.
As a matter of fact, no one except for Jing Zhongxiu and Mu Qing knew that Jing Yichen possessed a strong drug resistance.
Ordinary drugs would not work on him, including poison and philtre.
He was not born with such abilities. Instead, he had been trained. Since Jing Zhongxiu had been tricked in this manner earlier, he didnt want the history to be repeated in his sons case. So drug resistance had been cultivated in Jing Yichen for a dozen of years by giving him all kinds of medicine, including poison, philtres, knockout drops etc. There was one time when he took in too much poison that his immune system was altered. Mu Wensheng had to work really hard to remove the poison from his body.
Taking medicines was a painful and inhuman process, but it had visible advantages. Jing Yichen had now be someone who was immune to any normal medicines.
Tang Yun was startled and frightened, simultaneously. Jing Yichen would not touch her if he stayed conscious. She was well aware that Jing Yichen touched no one except Shangguan Ning. Therefore, he needed to be tricked into thinking of her as Shangguan Ning to aplish her mission.
But as her body felt heated and uneasy, Jing Yichen waspletely normal. That was not what she had imagined.
One!
Jing Yichen started the countdown.
You cant kill me! Shangguan Ning will not live if I am dead, nor will your child. I just want a child with you, please, give one to me. Tang Yuns eyes widened in fright and spoke hurriedly. She kind of regretted having thrown the gun to the ground, otherwise she would have got some back up.
Two!
You will never find her if I am dead. Only I know where she is. You are not losing anything in this deal. Am I that ugly for you to touch?
Three!
You wont dare kill me, I know you wont, unless you want Shangguan Ning to die as well.
Having said the words, Tang Yun felt a piercing pain and deafening sound of gunshot.
Then she fell into darkness.
Tang Yun had never expected that Jing Yichen would shoot her.
How could he be so ruthless?
It had been less than five minutes since he entered the door and pulled the trigger. Was he not worried that he wouldnt be able to find Shangguan Ning? Was he not worried that if she died, Shangguan Ning would not live either?
Jing Yichen had not used a silencer, so the sound startled everyone in the hotel.
Jing Zhongxiu came to knock at the door, instantly. His room was located next door.
Jing Yichen opened the door and said hurriedly, Dad, Ning is gone, send everyone to seek her. It urred half an hour ago. They couldnt have gone too far.
Furious, Jing Zhongxiu contacted all of his men and asked them to look for suspicious people and cars. He held onto his temper for now.
Jing Yichen was extremely anxious as well but he still gave instructions to Tiger rationally and then turned to Mu Qing and Zheng Jing for help.
He had killed Tang Yun because he needed to save time. If Tang Yun refused to spill anything and they continued to have a stand-off, the situation would only have gotten worse. The longer the dy, the more dangerous it would be for Shangguan Ning.
But Jing Yichen didnt spread the news that Shangguan Ning was missing. It was their wedding the next day and he couldnt allow the guests to know that the bride had gone missing.
There was a palpable tension all over the hotel but people had no idea about what was happening.
Chapter 435 - If Only Nothing Had Changed
Chapter 435: If Only Nothing Had Changed
Shangguan Ning woke up and felt that her head was spinning. She couldnt seem to move her limbs due to severe weakness.
The scene from before she passed out, shed across her eyes, and she trembled. She reached for her belly and was relieved when she found that nothing seemed to be wrong there.
You are finally awake, Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning got startled by the sudden voice. She turned towards the direction where the voice came from.
It was a clean room and there was a ck leather sofa ced against a corner. A handsome man was sitting there, looking at her with concern in his eyes.
But Shangguan Ning couldnt be bothered with it. Instead, she spilled out two words in a cold voice. Ji Bo!
She remembered clearly that before she passed out, she had seen Tang Yun walk into the room. She was wearing a wig and was dressed like her.
Now Shangguan Ning had no idea where she was but she knew that she had been drugged and brought here.
Jing Yichen must be looking for her crazily at this moment.
Shangguan Ning felt concerned and then turned to Ji Bo with hatred in her eyes.
It was their wedding the following day. Were they going to ruin that?
Ji Bo felt very bad when he saw Shangguan Ning looking at him in such a manner.
Shangguan Ning had never looked at him like this. He felt ashamed.
What was happening today was really terrible.
Ji Bo would not have done such a thing ever, using such a method upon a pregnant woman.
He was in business for years and had used many devious ns. But he almost never did something this horrible.
What was more, Shangguan Ning had always been pure and innocent in his heart, different from every other woman. She deserved to be happy.
She had beautiful features and possessed an elegant charisma. Her voice was soft, like a spring that flowed in Ji Bos heart.
Ji Bo was lost in memories as he looked at her gorgeous face.
They had met six years ago.
At the luxurious birthday banquet of Ji Lili, many aristocratic people had attended the event. As one of the heirs of Family Ji and the daughter of the mayor, she received many guests.
Everyone was dressed in their best clothes and were enjoying themselves, trying hard towork with those around them. Ji Lili was at the center of everyones attention.
Only Shangguan Ning was seated in the isted corner, refusing to approach any of those aristocratic children.
Her hair fell on her shoulders and she was wearing very light makeup. Dressed in a white dress that shaped her slender figure, she was like a beautiful diamond. She was not wearing revealing clothes but people couldnt help but fantasize about her.
She was sitting in the corner quietly and eating the pastry all alone, absolutely detached from the lively atmosphere of the event.
Many men, including Ji Bo noticed her that night. She was ady that drew the attention of most men there.
Even if she was sitting in a corner demurely, she still sparkled.
Some men walked up to her to have a chat. But she turned to them with a smile, shook her head and continued concentrating on the food.
Nodies of those families would really enjoy the food at such a banquet, but she did.
Ji Bo got to know her name from Ji Lili C Shangguan Ning.
Ji Bo found her to be beautiful just like her name.
Ji Lili introduced him to Shangguan Ning and her half-sister Shangguan Rouxue. Both of them were daughters of the Deputy Mayor Shangguan Zheng.
Undoubtedly, Shangguan Rouxue was also a strikingly beautifuldy, gentle, social and considerate, fitting her identity as the daughter of a Deputy Mayor.
But although Shangguan Rouxue looked kind hearted, she didnt have the charisma of her sister.
Shangguan Ning was pure both inside and out. She didnt show off and had no tricks up her sleeves.
Shangguan Rouxue, however, was not so innocent. Ji Bo, who had grown up in apetitive family, was a smart guy. He knew a lot about women. Shangguan Rouxue might have fooled the brainless Ji Lili, but she couldnt fool him.
But he was a moralistic man who didnt say anything humiliating to anyone. Even when Shangguan Rouxue confessed her feelings to him behind Ji Lilis back, he only turned her down with a smile.
Women tended to be jealous. When the banquet was approaching the end, Ji Bo decided to have a chat with Shangguan Ning but something happened at that moment.
The red wine in Shangguan Nings hand was all over her sisters exquisite dress. The dress was tailor made and had been the focus of all the women that evening, and now it was ruined.
Many people started to talk about her, saying that she was jealous of her beautiful sister so she ruined her dress.
Sister, it is okay, you didnt do that on purpose. I wont get mad. Dont me my sister, she didnt mean to do that!
Ji Bo had witnessed the entire scene, coldly. He knew pretty well that Shangguan Rouxue bumped into Shangguan Nings wine goblet on purpose and Shangguan Ning had nothing to do with it.
However, Shangguan Ning didnt offer any exnation. Instead, she just smiled, and left the banquet ahead of time.
She was so calm and poised that Ji Bo was left with a very deep impression of her.
She didnt seem to care about being framed, wronged and humiliated.
Or maybe she had been used to these tricks.
Or maybe, she didnt care a thing about what others thought of her.
Ji Bo put his drink down and ran after her.
Luckily she didnt walk too fast.
Ji Bo tookrge steps and caught up with her before she left the banquet.
Please, Ms. Shangguan!
She paused her steps, turned around and looked at him with a pair of innocent eyes as she said in a polite tone and a beautiful voice, Yes?
Confusion hovered over her jade like face. She didnt look depressed. Instead, it looked as if she was relieved to leave the banquet, ahead of time.
Chapter 436 - Fooled
Chapter 436: Fooled
Ji Bo smiled at her, politely and found himself nervous for the very first time of his life. My name is Ji Bo. I am Ji Lilis cousin. My cousin has wronged you and I apologize on her behalf. Please dont take her words seriously, she has not grown up yet.
When the red wine hadnded upon Shangguan Rouxue, Ji Lili was the first one who cursed and shouted at Shangguan Ning. Her words had been extremely harsh.
Ji Bo noticed that she was startled. Probably, she hadnt expected that someone might have noticed what actually happened. Then she smiled, No worries, apology epted. You are a good person. Ji Lili is lucky.
She was peaceful, calm, and forgiving.
Her looks and conduct left such a deep impression in Ji Bos heart that when he was selecting his secretary, he kept the one whose voice resembled Shangguan Nings.
His secretary was not capable at her work but she had been with him for four years just because he was obsessed with her voice.
Apart from the two banquets, Shangguan Ning had been to Family Ji three times and each time, she was with Shangguan Rouxue.
What Shangguan Ning didnt know was that her encounter with Ji Bo had always been nned patiently by him. Whenever he knew that Shangguan Ning wasing to visit Family Ji, he would stay back and eat at home.
Every time Ji Lili picked on her, Ji Bo would speak for her and lecture Ji Lili to stop her from messing around. That was why Ji Lili always assumed that Ji Bo fancied Shangguan Ning.
If only nothing had changed, then all would have been so wonderful at this moment.
He had not only failed to catch this woman who once made his heart throb but also ended up bing her enemy. Now, they were locked in a life and death struggle.
A patch of bitterness covered Ji Bos heart.
He had lost to Jing Yichen in every aspect C ability, family, career and love.
Jing Yichen was more decisive than him. He had known Shangguan Ning for just one month before marrying her. And their magnificent wedding was going to take ce tomorrow.
While he was going to be the one who ruined their wedding and destroyed their rtionship.
Seeing Ji Bo gazing at her, Shangguan Ning couldnt help but frown. President Ji, why have you kidnapped me? I need to go back to the hotel.
Ji Bo spoke slowly, Sorry, Shangguan, but I cant let you go.
You are thest person I want to trouble and I dont want to ruin your happiness. But if I dont ruin you, my life will be ruined.
Sorry, I have no other choice.
Dont worry, it is pretty safe here. I wont hurt you. You can leave when dawnes. But before that, you must stay here. Are you hungry? I will send someone to get you some food.
Shangguan Ning turned to look at Ji Bo in astonishment. She had known Ji Bo to be a gentleman with a mild temper, but at this moment, he was Jing Yichens worst enemy. He shouldnt be treating her in such a nice way.
Jing Yichen once said that Ji Bo was not as nice as he looked on the surface and that he often used fierce and ruthless methods. Therefore, Shangguan Ning also thought that what she had seen of him was just a facade.
But at this moment, Ji Bo didnt seem to be hostile towards her. He was talking with her in the same way and with the same tone as he had on all the previous asions when they had met.
But Shangguan Ning still didnt dare to be careless. She knew that Ji Bo was a man who treated career and family as something really important. Jing Yichen was his enemy so was she.
Shangguan Ning had no idea how long she had been here for, already. All she knew was that as soon as Jing Yichen found her missing, he would get extremely worried.
Why must Ji Bo wait until dawn before releasing her?
Why wouldnt he hold her for two days so that the wedding could be cancelled?
A touch of anxiety shed across Shangguan Nings heart.
Something was wrong!
She was not the target, otherwise she would not have been treated so well at this moment. The wedding was not their target either, otherwise she would not be released the following day either.
Their target was Jing Yichen.
But Shangguan Ning couldnt figure out how they nned to deal with Jing Yichen.
Also, why was keeping her captivated here would be helpful for Ji Bo and his men to deal with Jing Yichen?
Why must she be away if they wanted something to happen to Jing Yichen?
Shangguan Ning stopped thinking when she failed toe up with anything. What she needed to do right now was to find a way to go back to Jing Yichen.
She stood up and got off the bed, only to copse on the carpet.
Startled, Ji Bo went to hold her instantly. How are you, Shangguan? Are you feeling unwell?
Right at this moment, a gun was ced upon Ji Bos temple.
Ji Bos expression changed slightly. He turned to look at the gun holder in astonishment.
He had not expected that a pregnant woman, a bride-to-be, would have a gun with her in the night before going to bed.
Didnt they check her when Tang Yun drugged her?! Oh well, no one would have expected that Shangguan Ning would have a gun with her.
It seemed that she had been prepared for something bad to happen.
She had pretended to fall onto the ground feebly.
He had been fooled.
But the strange thing was that Ji Bo was not at all furious. Instead, he shamelessly felt a touch of joy because she was in his arms.
Also, he could feel that Shangguan Ning had no intention of killing him.
Ji Bo wanted to carry her and stood up, but the gun was pointed at his head, making him stiffen.
You better not move, or I might misfire as an amatuer.
Shangguan Ning stepped away Ji Bos arms without difficulty, but kept the gun trained upon his head.
She had been keeping herself fit even during pregnancy, so she was flexible and agile.
But she was really nervous inside her heart because she had once heard Ji Lili mention Ji Bos proficiency in arms and ammunition. She was worried that Ji Bo would take the gun away from her and threaten her instead.
Raise your arms and stand up slowly! Shangguan Ning was doing what she had seen on TV.
A bitter smile hovered over Ji Bos face, but the smile soon disappeared.
He put his arms up and slowly raised himself.
Chapter 437 - A Life and Death Struggle (Part One)
Chapter 437: A Life and Death Struggle (Part One)
Retreat to the wall!
Ji Bo followed Shangguan Nings order.
Walking towards the wall, he suddenly asked, Are you so devoted to him?
Slightly startled, Shangguan Ning answered without hesitation. Of course!
She didnt like any other man than Jing Yichen.
No one loved her more than Jing Yichen.
If you find out one day that he has someone else by his side, or he has a love child with someone else, will you continue to love him?
Shangguan Ning had no idea why Ji Bo would ask such a thing, but she said without hesitation either, He is not that kind of man. It is impossible!
Only she and Jing Yichen knew how deeply they loved each other. She firmly believed that Jing Yichen was never going to betray her.
Leaning against the wall, Ji Bo looked at this radiant woman and asked again, Why impossible? Even a powerful man like President Jing was once tricked and fathered Jing Yiran?
By saying President Jing, he was referring to Jing Zhongxiu.
Shangguan Ning shivered and bellowed at him. Is that what you are nning to do? Shameless!
It is definitely shameless. Ji Bo was suffocated by the pressure, but he had no intention to be a gentleman at this point. An ironic smile hovered over his elegant face. Jing Yichen is way too powerful for any other method to work out. This is the most practical method to deal with him, although it is not a good one.
Shangguan Ning couldnt hold back any more. She tried to open the door as she pointed at Ji Bo with the gun.
Seeing that she was going out, Ji Bo stared at her and said, If one day, he has nothing left, will you still be with him?
Although Shangguan Ning believed that Jing Yichen was never going to lose everything and that Ji Bo and no one else was good enough to beat him, she still answered without hesitation, Yes, I will be with him forever, no matter what happens!
What if he dies tomorrow?
Rage shed across Shangguan Nings eyes but she still said calmly, Then I wont live a day longer.
Is it worth it?
Nothing will be of any worth without him.
Having said thest words, Shangguan Ning opened the door and walked out.
She was worried that Ji Bo would follow, so she ran downstairs.
She had no time to put on shoes in the room. Barefoot, she was stomping on the freezing stairs. But she felt nothing.
Shangguan Ning was not sure which floor she was on, but she kept running downstairs one floor after another.
As she was just approaching the exit, a hideous woman in a rose coloured dress appeared.
Shangguan Ning got startled. It looked as if the woman had been guarding there on purpose and knew that she would appear.
A smile hovered over her scarred face when the woman saw her.
Sister, I knew you woulde but I didnt expect that it would happen so fast. It seems that Ji Bo still adores you so much. He still has feelings for you even if you are married. How devoted!
Shangguan Rouxue!
Shangguan Ning recognized the voice. She was shocked, What are you doing here?
What surprised her was not her presence, but her face that had been ruined to such a horrifying degree.
But she knew better than to react to it. Shangguan Rouxue was surely not going to like being reminded of her disfigurement. Also, Shangguan Ning felt that her sister was not behaving normally.
What Shangguan Rouxue cared most about was her appearance. Despite it being ruined to such a degree, she still talked in a gentle way, creeping Shangguan Ning out. She had no idea who ruined the face which she had been so proud of. It was indeed a fierce method, much more cruel than killing her!
Shangguan Ning didnt believe what Shangguan Rouxue said about Ji Bos fondness towards her.
She had known Ji Bo for many years, but they didnt know each other so well. He had offered his help sometimes only because Ji Lili had behaved over the top.
Ji Bo was friendly and hospitable towards everyone. He always had a smile on his face when he was talking with people. Shangguan Ning didnt sense anything different from him.
She felt that Shangguan Rouxue and Ji Lili were both making false usations. Ji Bo had no special feelings towards her, at least she didnt think so.
She had escaped because she had a gun.
She aimed the gun at Shangguan Rouxue as she said coldly, Move away if you dont want to die!
Shangguan Rouxue was her worst enemy. Shangguan Ning might hesitate to shoot Ji Bo, but she would not think twice if she had to shoot Shangguan Rouxue.
Shangguan Rouxue had done so many terrible things to her, and should have died hundreds of times.
Shangguan Rouxue chuckled. Her voice was gentle but it was also very creepy.
Shangguan Rouxue suddenly showed her right hand that had been ced behind her back.
She also had a gun with her!
She aimed at Shangguan Ning and said brutally, They wanted you to go back alive so that you run into the scene where your husband and another woman are in bed. But I think that you should die, for safetys sake!
Shangguan Nings face sunk. She held the gun even tighter.
Then she saw a row of men dressed in ck appear behind Shangguan Rouxues back. They all looked fierce. Apparently, Shangguan Rouxue had brought them from home.
Shangguan Nings heart sunk deeply.
She might have had a chance to escape if Shangguan Rouxue was alone. But with so many of them, she would not make it out alive.
That was why Ji Bo didnte after her.
He had known that she would not be able to run away.
Shangguan Ning retreated and started to walk back upstairs one step after another.
Being with Ji Bo was much safer than being with Shangguan Rouxue.
At least, Ji Bo would not kill her. But this maniac, Shangguan Rouxue could shoot anytime.
Sister, I envy you so much. Why are you always so lucky?
Shangguan Rouxue was ying with the gun between her fingers. She no longer needed to point at Shangguan Ning, because dozens of men behind her, had trained their guns upon Shangguan Ning.
It would be best if Shangguan Ning became too nervous to hold onto her baby.
Chapter 438 - A Life and Death Struggle (Part Two)
Chapter 438: A Life and Death Struggle (Part Two)
Shangguan Ning was indeed extremely nervous at the moment.
She could sense that Shangguan Rouxue had be much crazier than before.
As she was retreating, Shangguan Rouxue also moved ahead, little by little.
I had thought that the most sessful thing I did was to get Zhuojun because he had excellent looks, was the master of Family Xie, and a man of many girls dreams!
Shangguan Rouxue seemed to be immersed in the beautiful memories of the past. Her lips were raised slightly and the grudge inside her eyes was gone, temporarily. She looked bewildered and lost.
She would have looked very beautiful earlier with such an expression. But right now, she looked extremely scary.
I spent many efforts to get his heart, but as soon as you returned from abroad, you drew his attention back again. He abandoned me and it is all your fault. Also, I never imagined that you would be with Master Jing!
Shangguan Rouxue felt extremely happy when she saw Shangguan Ning retreating backwards, nervously. She also noticed that she was wobbling and could copse at any time.
Do you think that being with Master Jing will keep you safe? Hahaha, you are going to die, together with the baby in your belly.
Sheughed crazily, not caring about the cold expressions on Shangguan Nings face.
Master Jing treats you really nicely. I never knew that a man could treat a woman so nicely. You know what? Even Xie Zhuojun paled inparison to him and that displeases me. How can there be anyone who is more handsome, wealthier and warmer than Xie Zhuojun? If there is ever a man like this, I would either take him or kill him!
Shangguan Ning knew Shangguan Rouxue well. She knew how ruthless she could get. She was not surprised to hear what she said.
Maybe she didnt intend to disguise her real feelings any more.
Shangguan Ning stared at Shangguan Rouxue said to her in amanding tone, You y tricks and put on acts every single day. Now you are exposed! Thats why Xie Zhuojun doesnt like you any more. He has seen through you. It has nothing to do with me. Also, there are many men in this world that are more excellent than Xie Zhuojun. Jing Yichen is just one of them. Can you kill them all?
Shangguan Rouxue screamed like a cat being stomped on the tail. Nonsense! Zhuojun is the best man in the world. No one can exceed him. How can my man be second to anyone?
Shangguan Ning looked at her in pity.
She was a bit confused now. Shangguan Rouxue had been a conceited person, but she was not a maniac.
Within one moment, Shangguan Ning calmed herself.
She knew what Ji Bo and the others were nning but she was confident about Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen was not as simple as they assumed him to be and their love was not fragile, either.
This conspiracy was not going to work. Shangguan Ning was not sure what happened to Jing Zhongxiu back then but this method would not work again.
It was not Family Jings style to fall for the same trap, twice.
What needed to be done right now was to get Shangguan Rouxue under control, in case she and the men behind her did something terrible to her.
Shangguan Ning made up her mind to walk upstairs and retreat to the room.
Ji Bo seemed much more reliable than Shangguan Rouxue.
But Shangguan Rouxue was still immersed in her own world as she followed Shangguan Ning upstairs. This is unfair! Which part of me is worse than yours? Why are you having a better life than me? You have never surpassed me in anything since we were young. But even Ji Bo likes you. Why? I met Ji Bo first. Why did you take him away from me?
You are wrong. Ji Bo doesnt like me. You can ask him yourself. I think that he likes you.
Shangguan Ning was talking nonsense. She intended to lead Shangguan Rouxue to Ji Bos side.
Shangguan Rouxue got a bit delighted hearing the words, but soon her face sunk again. You dont need to lie to me. Do you think that I am an idiot? I already confessed my feelings to Ji Bo when Xie Zhuojun was in a vegetative state, but he turned me down without any hesitation.
Shangguan Ning got slightly startled. She didnt know that Shangguan Rouxue had confessed to Ji Bo, before.
But that didnt matter. What she needed to do was to distract Shangguan Rouxue.
Do you know why Ji Bo turned me down? A twisted expression hovered over Shangguan Rouxues scarred face, making Shangguan Ning shiver in her heart.
He said that he already liked someone else and even said that we werent a match. Who else would fit him if not me? Then I knew. He stared at you and stood up for you all the time, so I tested him and sure enough, I got my answer. He finally admitted that he likes you!
Shangguan Ning didnt believe what Shangguan Rouxue said but it didnt matter right now. She just wanted to lead Shangguan Rouxue to Ji Bos side.
I dont believe you. I need to ask him because he said earlier that he likes you. Dont try to fool me!
Shangguan Rouxue got startled upon hearing what Shangguan Ning said.
That is impossible!
She didnt believe that Ji Bo liked her but Shangguan Ning sounded so certain and she never lied or made up stories.
At this moment, Shangguan Ning was willing to lie through her teeth. It was a matter of survival for her.
Shangguan Rouxue had no feelings for Ji Bo at the moment, but if Ji Bo liked her rather than Shangguan Ning, then it would be delightful to know so. It would mean that she was more charismatic than Shangguan Ning.
She hesitated for only a second before deciding to go to Ji Bo with Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning wouldnt be able to escape, anyways. She could be allowed to live for a few more minutes.
Shangguan Ning breathed a sigh of relief inside her heart seeing that Shangguan Rouxue approved of her proposal.
She knew Shangguan Rouxues weakness and had made use of it correctly.
Chapter 439 - A Life and Death Struggle (Part Three)
Chapter 439: A Life and Death Struggle (Part Three)
Shangguan Ning returned to the room with Shangguan Rouxue. She had counted carefully this time and understood that they were on the 6th floor in a residential building.
It waste at night and the surrounding was quiet.
Seeing Shangguan Ning returning, Ji Bo instantly stood up with a smile. But his face sunk when he saw Shangguan Rouxue enter as well.
Didnt I ask you to stay down?
Ji Bo sounded very distant, different from his usual gentle self.
Shangguan Ning got slightly startled but she didnt think it mattered.
It was a good thing if Ji Bo treated Shangguan Rouxue coldly. If they were in a conflict with each other, she might get a chance to escape.
Shangguan Ning had the gun in her hand and she was prepared to pull the trigger. She aimed the gun at Shangguan Rouxue as she approached Ji Bo and stood next to him, releasing a sigh of relief.
No matter how much Ji Bo wanted to fight Jing Yichen, he still treated her gently. That was his personality.
Or maybe, Ji Bo did have... special feelings towards her, just as Shangguan Rouxue said?
Whatever the case, she was not scared of Shangguan Rouxue. They both had guns aimed at each others face, but neither of them would dare to pull the trigger under the current circumstances.
Shangguan Ning was in an advantageous state at the moment.
Shangguan Rouxue didnt care about Ji Bos coldness. She was here to certify if Ji Bo liked her. If he did, it would be a wonderful thing, good enough to tease Yang Muyan.
I am here to ask you one thing. I will leave after I am done. But you must tell me the truth, or I will kill Shangguan Ning instantly if you try and lie!
Ji Bo had never liked Shangguan Rouxue. He thought of her as an evil woman, one who only pretended to be an innocent woman.
Even a woman like Yang Muyan had once been her victim.
Put down the gun, first. The n is to guarantee that Shangguan Ning is alive. If you want to act like a maniac, do it somewhere else!
Ji Bo said as he pulled Shangguan Ning behind him to shield her with his body.
Shangguan Ning got a bit startled standing behind the tall Ji Bo.
Could Shangguan Rouxue and Ji Lili have been telling the truth?
Ji Bo liked her?
Shangguan Rouxue wanted to shoot her, but Ji Bo was willing to protect her.
She had thought that there was only one man in this world who would take a bullet for her, but Ji Bo was willing too.
This was impossible!
Shangguan Ning knew that Ji Bo and Jing Yichen were totally different. Jing Yichen could sacrifice everything but not her, but Ji Bo regarded his family more important than anything else in the world. He would not give up family or business just for the sake of a woman, let alone giving up his life.
He must be thinking that getting her behind his back would keep her safe, since Shangguan Rouxue was not going to shoot him.
Whatever the case, what Ji Bo was doing, moved Shangguan Ning. She was extremely grateful to him at this moment.
But Shangguan Rouxue got extremely furious about Ji Bo defending Shangguan Ning and she was about to say something when the door behind her was kicked open with a bang!
Everyone got startled.
Shangguan Rouxue turned her head to see the person at the door.
Thest thing that she saw was a man dressed in a ck coat with a gun in his hand. He stared at her and pulled the trigger without blinking.
The bullet flew towards her and blood sshed all around.
Shangguan Rouxue started to lose consciousness. The pain that arose when the bullet hit her head was soon gone and she was consumed by the darkness.
Jing Yichen had no expression on his face when he killed her.
That was the second life which he had taken tonight.
One secondter, he aimed at the other person in the room and started to pull the trigger once again.
Yichen, no!
Shangguan Ning cried out all of a sudden.
But it was toote. The bullet in Jing Yichens hand dashed towards the target with a loud sound.
The bullet went through Ji Bos chest. He fell on the ground with his hands over his chest.
Shangguan Ning got so frightened that she went pale. She squatted down and held onto his arms and asked anxiously, Ji Bo, how are you? Hold on, I will call the doctor now...
Before she finished her words, Jing Yichen swept her into his arms.
He looked furious and his eyes were full of heartache.
She cared about Ji Bo, the bastards life? Didnt she know that he had almost gone crazy tonight? He had used all of his forces. Everyone was busy searching every inch of thisnd.
Shouldnt she throw herself into his arms and report to him all that had happened?!
Howe she started to care about Ji Bos life when they had not seen each other for one hour?
Shangguan Ning was very happy to see Jing Yichen and her first reaction was to throw herself into his arms. But Ji Bo being shot, froze her.
She had been very grateful to Ji Bo for keeping her shielded behind his back a moment ago. Jing Yichen should not have killed him when that man was willing to keep her safe.
Shangguan Ning knew that Jing Yichen would want to put some more bullets into Ji Bo judging from his expression. She knew him too well!
She took hold of Jing Yichens neck and said at a fast speed, Yichen, Ji Bo protected me just now. Dont shoot him anymore. I am fine, get some help for him!
Jing Yichens face shrunk.
Save Ji Bo?
Ridiculous!
He had been very tolerant not to kill Ji Bo, instantly.
The bullet from his gun had barely missed Ji Bos heart because of Shangguan Nings cry. But if he didnt receive medical care, Ji Bo would eventually bleed to death.
Jing Yichen carried Shangguan Ning and started to walk outwards, ignoring Ji Bo entirely.
Nestled in pain and lying on the ground, Ji Bos hands were full of his own blood.
Seeing Jing Yichen leaving with Shangguan Ning, he scooped out his cell phone from his pocket with great difficulty and dialed a number.
Chapter 440 - All Well
Chapter 440: All Well
Jing Yichen walked down, one step after another with Shangguan Ning in his arms.
He looked cold but couldnt help but ask her after they reached one floor lower. Hurt anywhere?
Shangguan Ning was very anxious, fearing that Jing Yichen would really have shot Ji Bo dead. But judging from his expression, she understood that he had been merciful enough not to put two more bullets into Ji Bo.
With arms around Jing Yichens neck, she shook her head softly. No, I am fine. Ji Bo and Shangguan Rouxue held me captive. She wanted to kill me but he stopped her.
Jing Yichens expressions didnt be any better after hearing what she said.
He knew that Ji Bo would have defended Shangguan Ning. He knew Ji Bos real feelings too well!
But Jing Yichen was not very happy at the sight of Shangguan Nings worried face. He said inposure, That was not a fatal shot. He wont die.
The worry on Shangguan Nings face disappeared all of a sudden. Then she looked up and kissed Jing Yichen on the cheek as she said with a smile, You are the best!
Jing Yichen finally looked happier but he felt depressed again when he thought that he got the kiss because of him showing mercy towards Ji Bo.
But Shangguan Ning felt incredibly assured.
His arms were warm andfortable and she wanted to stay in them forever.
Shangguan Ning knew that Jing Yichen had wanted to kill Ji Bo. He would show no mercy to anyone who treated her badly.
She said with a soft voice, Ji Bo is a part of what happened today but he didnt hurt me right from the beginning. He even defended me. I wont let you kill him. This bullet is already serious enough for him to learn the lesson. He doesnt have to die. Family Ji would surely take revenge from Family Jing if he does and that wont be good.
Jing Yichen said nothing and carried her out of this building. He ced her in the car carefully and then sat in.
Jing Yichen made a call to Jing Zhongxiu and told him that Shangguan Ning had been found. Then he hung up and took Shangguan Ning into his arms.
Jing Yichen had almost used up all of his efforts in the search thatsted for more than an hour.
With Shangguan Ning in his arms, Jing Yichen finally let out a sigh of relief.
He was exhausted but he held her in his arms tightly, fearing that she would disappear again.
Shangguan Ning also felt quite frightened for what had happened tonight. It had been a dangerous situation with Shangguan Rouxue threatening her. She might have lost her life if she had not managed to fool her.
Shangguan Ning was not scared of being injured. What she worried about was the baby in her belly.
It was still early in the pregnancy and the tremendous change of emotions was not supposed to be great for the childs growth.
She also held Jing Yichen tightly and leaned her head against his strong arms. Then she finally said what was on her mind. I am so happy that you are here. I was so scared and had only been pretending to stay calm.
Jing Yichen felt his heart ache tremendously. Ignoring the driver in the car, he lowered his head and kissed her fiercely as if trying to absorb her into his own body.
I am sorry that I waste, baby, sorry that you had to suffer.
Jing Yichen spoke in a low voice, sounding guilty and heartbroken.
Shangguan Ning epted his kiss generously and shook her head. No, you are notte. I was so happy to see you. You are always there when I am in the most vulnerable state, right from the time we met.
He must have searched every corner of the neighborhood like hell that he ended up finding her so quickly.
I was worried that you fell for their trick. Judging from what Ji Bo said, they were trying to use the same trick on you, which they used against dad years back. So I was anxious.
With one hand on Shangguan Nings waist and the other under her chin, Jing Yichen talked in a very gentle yet firm way, Ning, dont worry. That trap would never work on me. I will never fail to tell others apart from you. I will always know if you are next to me, even when I have lost consciousness!
Yes, I know. I didnt think that you would ever confuse me with other women. I trust you.
When they got back to the hotel, Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning shifted to another room. The presidential suit had been cleaned up, but he didnt want Shangguan Ning to stay there any longer.
The wedding gown was moved to the new room, too. After a shower, Shangguan Ning stopped feeling nervous, especially after seeing the wedding gown hung in front of her eyes.
She was finally at peace.
Although she had been through a life and death situation, not long ago, she still felt that she was going to spend a happy life with Jing Yichen, despite all the trouble.
Coming out of the bathroom, Jing Yichen found Shangguan Ning staring at the wedding gown with a happy expression on her face.
It felt as if the past hour never urred. The scene in front of his eyes was exactly as it was one hour ago when he went to deal with Jing Yiran.
Jing Yichen felt his heart calm down.
She was looking forward to this wedding so much that she kept caressing the wedding gown.
He had been right. He knew that Shangguan Ning couldnt have possibly gone to bed so early.
He came to Shangguan Ning and felt her pulse to make sure that she was fine apart from feeling shocked. Then he bent down to pick her up and ced her gently on the bed.
Shangguan Ning chuckled. By now, you have felt my pulse eight times. I am fine!
She was surprised that Jing Yichen had learnt to feel the pulse to make a diagnosis.
And he seemed to be confident that he could do it well enough not to bother Mu Qing. Jing Yichens rejection had startled Mu Qing as well.
Doesnt hurt to feel the pulse several times. I am just a bit worried about you. But both of you are doing well.
Jing Yichen finally had a light smile on his face. He took Shangguan Ning into his arms and said softly, Baby, go and sleep now. These clothes would be here when you wake up. No need to stare at them anymore. You will spend an entire day with them tomorrow.
Chapter 441 - The Wedding (Part One)
Chapter 441: The Wedding (Part One)
Shangguan Ning woke up before dawn the following day.
Seeing that Jing Yichen was still asleep, she didnt wake him up and tiptoed off the bed.
She had wanted to visit the bathroom, but when she passed the wedding gown hung in the bedroom, she couldnt help but cease her steps and caress the gown that symbolized her identity as the bride.
The wedding gown was undoubtedly extremely beautiful and resplendent. It would make every woman look radiant.
Jing Yichen opened his eyes and saw his wife looking at the wedding gown once again. He shook his head helplessly. Getting up, he carried her back to the bed.
Oh, you are awake? Did I wake you up?
Yes, I had a dream about you staring at the wedding gown so carefully that even I was ignored. So I woke up.
Shangguan Ning chuckled in embarrassment and said in a sweet voice, I like it so much that I wanted to hold it in my arms and sleep. But I didnt want to spoil it, so I had to hold you, instead.
So now I have been demoted? I am so sad that a wedding gown can put me in shadow.
Jing Yichens voice was low and hoarse, sexy beyond description.
You just cant wait to put it on, can you?
Shangguan Ning nodded and then shook her head inughter. It is not about wearing it. I want to look at it because then I will know that I am marrying you and that makes me happy.
They talked for a while before getting off the bed.
It was their wedding day and there were many things to do.
Breakfast was delivered to their room. Fearing that Shangguan Ning would be starving, Jing Yichen forced her to take in some more food.
When Shangguan Ning was eating breakfast, the makeup artist, stylist and the dresser were all waiting outside. They entered the room and helped her with the hair and makeup after she finished the food.
Soon, her two bridesmaids, Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun also came there. They had no idea of what happened the day before, so they came and greeted Shangguan Ning, happily.
Although Shangguan Ning still had some lingering fear about the previous nights events, seeing Zhao Ananughing loudly and cheerfully in the room, she let the incident slip out of her mind. Instead, she started to get prepared to be the most beautiful bride.
As Zhao Anan turned her head, she noticed Jing Yichen sitting on the sofa motionlessly and gazing at Shangguan Ning. She burst intoughter and said, Cousin, what are you staring at Ning for? You are the groom and you need to receive those guests outside. Ning wont disappear. Cant you just give her some space? So annoying that you are showing off your love in public.
She, of course, did not know that Shangguan Ning had disappeared the previous day and that Jing Yichen intended to be with her through the next 24 hours.
Although Shangguan Rouxue and Tang Yun were both dead, Yang Muyan was still alive and Jing Yiran didnt seem to be giving up, either. What if they caused any more incidents to harm Shangguan Ning? Jing Yichen suspected that he would kill Jing Yiran this time, if something like that happened.
Luckily, Lu would arrive in the UK today and with her next to Shangguan Ning, he would be assured.
Jing Yichen turned deaf ears to Zhao Anans words and continued to be seated on the sofa, watching the stylist do Nings hair. A touch of joy flitted across his heart.
Shangguan Ning, however, felt a bit shy. She turned to him and said, Yichen, you can leave now. There are so many people here, dont worry.
Jing Yichen knew what Shangguan Ning meant.
But he still refused to move. He didnt need to worry about what was happening outside. Jing Zhongxiu and Tiger were both there to deal with everything.
The only thing he needed to do was to greet the masters or heirs of each family. That was the only fundamental etiquette.
But Jing Zhongxiu had not sent anyone to summon him, so the time had not yet arrived.
Shangguan Ning stopped trying to convince him any more when she found him being stubborn. Instead, she turned to talk with Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun.
The two girls went to get changed in the room next door.
Shangguan Ning had chosen the dress for them eventually.
It was an A-line dress made with thin chiffon in light purple color, dreamy and beautiful.
But Zhao Anan didnt find itfortable. She couldnt even walk properly in it. Zheng Lun, however, fitted the dress perfectly. She looked simply like a fairy, innocent and pure.
Zhao Anan threw a look at Zheng Lun and then at herself as she pped her forehead and moaned, How can there be such a huge difference between two girls with the same dress? I dont want to wear dresses, it feels weird!
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. It is alright! You look beautiful in the dress. You have worn enough dresses before. Todays dress is morefortable than any of those, no?
Zhao Anan got very annoyed when she was reminded of this matter.
At that time, Mu Qing kept her under the effect of needles so that she could not move or run away. Then he had started to toy around with her by forcing her to wear dresses and high heels to make her look sexy and charming. That had annoyed her a great deal!
But it was Shangguan Nings special day today and she was also her best friend. So she had to bear it.
Seeing her face flush, Zheng Lun consoled her with a smile. Anan, I think you look very pretty in the dress.
She wore dresses on all possible asions. There was not a single pair of pants in her wardrobe.
Also, she found that Zhao Anan looked more feminine in this way.
Most of the pants Zhao Anan wore were in a neutral style. With her short hair and a careless personality, she was no different from a handsome boy at the first nce.
Had it not been for her plump breasts, many people would have thought of her as a boy, anyways.
Yes, I look like a pretty girl. Zhao Anan wobbled to the chair and sat down as she shrugged. But the point is, I am not a girl. I am a tomboy!
Chapter 442 - The Wedding (Part Two)
Chapter 442: The Wedding (Part Two)
Amused by Zhao Anans words, Zheng Lun came and sat down on the chair next to her. The makeup artists started to put on the makeup for her.
Seeing that makeup also needed to be done, Zhao Anan objected totally.
She disliked all these things, including fake eyshes, powder, cream, blusher, eyeshadows and more.
No, no, Master, leave me alone. Just concentrate on these two. I dont like all of this.
Zhao Anan spoke in such fluent English that the top-notch makeup artist got startled.
She had never met any girl who refused to get makeup done from her.
But the makeup artist didnt force her to do any makeup. Seeing that the newly-wedded couple didnt object either, she shrugged her shoulders.
It took them almost the entire morning before the makeup and styling was finished. They were not done until it was almost 11.
During that time, Jing Yichen was summoned by Jing Zhongxiu. The father and the son went to greet the guests and directed them towards the church.
But Huang Lihan was guarding Shangguan Ning after Jing Yichen left the room.
After knowing what happened the night before, he got so furious that he followed Shangguan Ning on every step. He didnt leave her side before he gave her away to Jing Yichen, safe and sound.
Apanied by Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun, Shangguan Ning arrived at the church in the luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom in her favorite wedding gown.
Usually, it was the local priest that hosted the wedding. But today, it was the Bishop of the Royal Church who was hosting their wedding.
In the church, Jing Yichen was waiting for his most beautiful bride in a white suit, standing next to the Bishop.
The church was already full of people. In the very first row were Jing Tianyuan, Mo Lan and Jing Zhongxiu as well as the Shangguan Xing family, who had been shocked by the wedding.
Dressed in the white gown, Shangguan Ning walked forward in slow steps with the long hemline dragging behind her.
She had a near transparent veil over her head andce gloves on her hands. Holding a bunch of flowers, she had her hand around Uncle Huang Lihans arm. He was leading her into the church.
Behind her were Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun who were holding the flowers. Behind them were six pairs of ring bearers.
Huang Lihan got very emotional seeing his niece blossom into this beautiful woman. It was a solemn and respectful wedding. Although Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were already married, he still felt reluctant to give away this girl whom he had adored since she was little.
Everyone turned their look towards Shangguan Ning as soon as she entered the church.
Few people had met Shangguan Ning before. They couldnt imagine how excellent a woman had to be so as to be thedy of Family Jing and the madam of this enormous business empire!
Despite a thinyer of veil over her face, Shangguan Ning looked strikingly beautiful.
Jing Yichen was full of excitement when he saw this woman walking towards him slowly.
She was absolutely the most beautiful woman in the world.
The strapless white wedding gown moulded her beautiful body. The exquisite neck, the slender waist and the long arms manifested her beauty in every single way.
Even though she was not wearing high heels, she still looked very tall and slender. She was like a pure Magnolia that bloomed quietly.
Shangguan Nings heart skipped a beat when she caught sight of Jing Yichen standing not too far away.
A smile hovered over her face. She felt that Jing Yichen looked extremely handsome today!
She wanted to go there faster, but Huang Lihan walked so slowly that she had to follow her uncles step, little by little. But all through the time, her eyes were only on Jing Yichen.
And Jing Yichen was gazing at her too.
He had lost her the night before and it was a miracle that their wedding could take ce on time today.
It had been such a rollercoaster experience for him all this while that Jing Yichen cherished every moment when he was with her.
He extended his hands towards her, without even realising when he saw her approaching him.
Shangguan Ning smiled and ced her hands in his, which he held tightly.
Jing Yichen nodded at Huang Lihan who went to sit in the first row opposite them.
The striking couple stood in front of the Bishop, hand in hand with each other.
The Bishop was a tall British man in his 50s. He looked solemn and spoke fluent Chinese.
Today, we are gathered here under the eyes of God as the witnesses to the wedding of Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning. It is a holy moment, not impetuous or inconsiderate. It is pious and serious. There are two people who are going to bebined in this holy wedding. If anyone has any valid reason to object to their union, pleasee out now or stay forever silent.
The voice of the Bishop echoed across the church. No one uttered a sound at this moment. After all, it was just a ritual to say these words.
The Bishop was experienced. He took a short moment and said in a loud and serious voice, Please remember: without the permission of God, no one is legally married.
With eyes on Jing Yichen, the Bishop asked solemnly, Jing Yichen, do you ept Shangguan Ning as your legally wedded wife at this holy wedding and live with her under the guidance of God? Do you promise to love her, respect her, care about her and stay faithful to her for as long as you live?
With Shangguan Nings hand in his, Jing Yichen said with a firm voice and serious expression, I do!
The Bishop turned to Shangguan Ning and asked, Shangguan Ning, do you ept Jing Yichen as your legally wedded husband at this holy wedding and live with him under the guidance of God? Do you promise to love him, respect him, care about him and stay faithful to him for as long as you live?
Shangguan Ning felt that she had never been so serious as she was now. Then she answered without hesitation, I do!
Now, say your vows in front of God!
Jing Yichen turned his head and looked at Shangguan Ning. His eyes were sincere and full of affection as he said emotionally, I, Jing Yichen, ept Shangguan Ning as my legally wedded wife. From today on, I will have you, for rich or for poor, in sickness or in health. I will always love you, respect and cherish you until death do us apart. I swear to God and make this promise to you!
Chapter 443 - The Wedding (Part Three)
Chapter 443: The Wedding (Part Three)
Shangguan Nings tears trickled down alongside her face. She didnt wipe them but said what was hidden inside her heart for a very long time. I, Shangguan Ning, ept Jing Yichen as my legally wedded husband. From today on, I will have you, for rich or for poor, in sickness or in health, I will always love you, respect and cherish you until death do us apart. I swear to God and make this promise to you!
These were the most ordinary andmon vows of marriage, but for Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning, these words were full of sincerity.
In fact, their love itself was a vow. They loved each other not because of money or looks.
Jing Yichen lifted Shangguan Nings veil, wiped her tears, lowered his head and kissed her.
It was a soft kiss, serious and warm.
Oh God, lets pray for all the married couples, so they can remain dedicated to each other, forgive each other and experience increased happiness every single day. Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning are going to start their life as a wedded couple and wish that they can receive your help and the support and spend their lives together in health. Wish their happinesssts forever. Amen!
Everyone seated followed the Bishop and said, Amen.
Shangguan Ning looked at Jing Yichen with clear eyes. She looked joyful.
Jing Yichens eyes had an indulgent look in them. When the ritual ended, he took Shangguan Nings hands and walked out of the church, slowly.
The wedding was followed by a banquet at the hotel. The couple changed into the Chinese styled costumes and expressed gratitude towards everyone present.
The banquetsted for more than two hours and the guests finally caught a clear sight of the bride. She was extremely beautiful and elegant. She looked like she belonged to a noble family.
Soon everyone got to know who Shangguan Ning really was. She was the daughter of the former Deputy Mayor, Shangguan Zheng, who was no longer alive. Her uncle Shangguan Xing was not such a big businessman whilst her uncle Huang Lihan was far from being an aristocratic man, although he had some properties of his own.
That was to say, she married Jing Yichen and became part of Family Jing, not because she had a powerful background but because of her own abilities.
Jing Yichen apparently cared about her and drank all the wine that was toasted to them. Shangguan Ning was not allowed to drink even a single drop. He kept her protected all the time as if he didnt want her to be disturbed even slightly.
Shangguan Ning seemed to be someone who was used to being taken care of by Jing Yichen in this manner.
Many people were shocked by how charismatic Shangguan Ning must be to have him behave like this towards her.
There had always been a rumor going around in A City that neither of the two brothers of Family Jing had a heart. One waspletely cold and indifferent towards women and the other was always with a new woman.
But now it seemed that the rumour had been baseless.
Jing Yichen didnt look like someone who was cold and indifferent. He had a totally different attitude towards everyone else from Shangguan Ning!
One thing was clear after witnessing the wedding C Shangguan Ning enjoyed a high position in Family Jing and she must not be annoyed under any circumstances.
After the banquet, the guests left one after another.
Jing Yichen had already brought Shangguan Ning back to the room to rest.
Dressed in a long, red dress, she looked very pretty with the ruby earrings and nes adorning her ears and neck.
Jing Yichen removed his overcoat and gathered Shangguan Ning in his arms.
Tired?
Shangguan Ning shook her head. No.
She was not tired. She had been in a very excited state throughout the day and quite cheerful too. She didnt need to deal with the toasts or manage the guests.
Jing Yichen should be the one, tired.
He had showered, but she could still smell alcohol on him.
He had drunk a lot of wine and epted all the toast presented to him, without hesitation.
But he was still sober after drinking so much.
I didnt know that your capacity is so good.
Shangguan Ningughed and looped her arms around his neck. Then she kissed him softly on the lips.
Jing Yichen smiled. Your husband is good at everything, including drinking wine! But you look energetic. Why dont I see that when you are in bed?
Shangguan Ning had not expected that he would talk about that kind of a thing. Flushing, she gave a soft hit on his chest, released herself from his arms and went to take a shower.
When she came out of the bathroom, she found Jing Yichen falling asleep on the bed.
Shangguan Ning got a bit concerned C he must have gotten rather tired these past two days!
She tiptoed to his side and snuggled up to him.
Jing Yichen swept her into his arms out of instinct and went back to sleep.
It was already dark when they woke up.
Jing Yichen checked his watch and found that it was already seven in the evening.
He woke up Shangguan Ning and the couple went to eat dinner.
Jing Yichen had prepared dinner with roses and candles. There was a sea of flowers in the dining room.
Surprised and joyed, Shangguan Ning got very excited with hands over her mouth.
Jing Yichen pulled the chair like a gentleman and gestured to her to sit down. My wife, please sit down. The dinner is served, please enjoy it.
Shangguan Ning looked at him in astonishment. She got up and thanked him with a kiss. Thank you, my love. I am so happy to have such a romantic post-wedding life!
Jing Yichen kissed her back and said with a smile, My wife, it is my honor.
After the dinner, Jing Yichen brought her to the balcony of the hotel.
Not far in the distance, a splendid firework lit up the sky. Delighted, Shangguan Ning teased Jing Yichen. It seems that this is all you coulde up with.
Jing Yichen swept her into his arms and smiled. Oh well, I am not so good at pleasing women. I will practice more in the future and learn more variations!
It was a romantic night and Shangguan Ning had a good sleep in Jing Yichens arms.
They got up, ate breakfast and then Jing Yichen said with a smile, Father has given us a wedding present. Lets go and take a look.
Then he brought Shangguan Ning to the rooftop of the hotel.
A brand-new helicopter was sparkling in the sunshine on the tform.
Startled and happy, Shangguan Ning said, Has dad given us a helicopter?
Jing Yichen shook his head with a smile. Baby, you look down on our father. A helicopter would be too little for him as our wedding present, it is just an attachment!
Chapter 444 - Zhao Anan Went Missing
Chapter 444: Zhao Anan Went Missing
Shangguan Ning was shocked.
She knew that Jing Zhongxiu was quite wealthy and never stingy, but a helicopter was already a generous enough gift. She couldnt possibly imagine what the real present would be when the helicopter was just an attachment.
Jing Yichen swept her into his arms with a smile. Lets go and find out.
The helicopter went flying for three hours and thennded on a small isle.
Jing Yichen led Shangguan Ning to the ind and exined to her. This is an isle located at the Golfo de San Miguel of Spain, close to the northern coastal area of Ibiza. Now, it has been named Chen Ning Isle.
Shangguan Ning got so surprised that her eyes widened. Are you saying that dad has given us an ind?
The isle in front of their eyes looked enormous and the surroundings were very beautiful. Apparently, the development had beenpleted under the team of Golfo de San Miguel of Spain and it was ready for living right away.
It was indeed a generous gift!
This isle located at such a wonderful geographical ce was worth more than what money could buy.
Jing Yichen led Shangguan Ning further onto the isle and showed her around.
It was spread across approximately 560,000 m2 and had been developed into an ideal residential area withplete functions and facilities. There was a luxurious vi, a manor, a water pool and a wine cer.
The isle was located at an excellent ce which received 300 days of sunshine. It even boasted of the wonderful view of Mediterranean sea.
Shangguan Ning was shocked by the facilities and the scenery after a small tour with Jing Yichen.
Every piece of the facility had been modernized and it would be amazing to live here.
The warm climate and the broad vision of beautifulndscape would make it difficult for anyone to want to leave from here.
The employees on the isle were all Spanish people. Although Shangguan Ning didnt speak much Spanish, she could still manage to converse with them by using some simple, daily phrases.
But she didnt need to worry about anything. Jing Yichen was multilingual and acted as the trantor.
A top-notch chef had been hired from Spain who could make authentic Spanish food, much to Shangguan Nings delight.
There was a golden beach, a thick and green forest as well as many treasured wild animals. There were tortoises, fish and seagulls everywhere. It was serene and addicting.
Jing Zhongxiu had even prepared diving facilities, a yacht and a sailing boat. Jing Yichen drove the yacht and took Shangguan Ning in the sea.
Shangguan Ning had wanted to go diving but Jing Yichen didnt agree with it.
She was pregnant and Jing Yichen didnt allow her to take the risk.
They spent almost half a month on the isle before heading back.
They didnt take the helicopter, but took the flight from Spain to home.
When they were on the ne, Shangguan Ning suddenly thought of a question as she leaned against Jing Yichens shoulders. We will only spend a few days here, each year. Wont it be a waste if the ind remains vacant otherwise?
Jing Yichen showed a small smile. My wife is indeed a wise woman who knows how to save money.
He softy scratched her beautiful nose and said with a gentle tone, Dont worry, it wont be vacant. We will offer renting of the ce and the isle will bring us enough ie. And the ie will be all yours!
Shangguan Ning epted the offer without hesitation.
She and Jing Yichen had not separated their ounts. It would not matter whose ie it would be.
They slept on the ne and when Shangguan Ning opened her eyes, the ne had already arrived at A City.
It was Lee Duo who came to pick them up. Tiger and Lu were both in the UK and wouldnt return until the following day.
People tended to get tired after a long time in the ne. The couple arrived at home, took a shower, ate a light snack and went to rest.
A whileter, Jing Yichens phone rang all of a sudden.
His ringtone was not loud, but Shangguan Ning still woke up.
Jing Yichen patted her back and said softly, It is fine, go on and sleep. It is from Mu Qing.
He got off the bed and walked to the living room to answer the call.
Jing Yichen decided that if Mu Qing was calling him for fun, he was definitely going to make Mu Qing regret having made the call!
But Jing Yichen knew instantly that something had happened after hearing Mu Qings voice.
Master Jing, you must help me!
Mu Qing sounded really tired and his voice was hoarse, totally different from his usual sunny self.
Slightly frowning, Jing Yichen asked with a low voice, What is it?
Anan... is gone...
Jing Yichen frowned even deeper as he said in a cold voice, What do you mean that she is gone? Speak clearly!
After she attended the wedding, she had been spending time with Zheng Lun whilst I was with Zheng Jing, busy drinking with those people. So I couldnt see her. When we returned home, I didnt see her then, either. She said that she would go home with her mother and not me.
So you just found out that she is not back? Jing Yichen sounded cold. Had Zhao Anan done it deliberately again?
No, as soon as I returned, I went to Family Zhao, but Aunt Zhao was surprised too. She said that Anan imed to return home with me, so she had no clue.
Jing Yichen knew what was going on.
Zhao Anan lied to both sides and then sneaked away.
This girl had gotten smarter and bolder too!
I have been searching for her for so many days. At the beginning, I thought that she was just ying around and would return soon. But half a month has passed and I have still not seen any sign of her even after a thorough search of A City!
Mu Qing sounded guilty. If he had insisted on leaving with Zhao Anan or bothered to ask Zhao Zhao earlier, Zhao Anan might not have gotten the chance to sneak away.
What did you do to her?
Jing Yichen sounded very cold. Zhao Anan had been doing so well a while ago. She should not have run away without a reason, unless Mu Qing annoyed her somehow.
Mu Qing had agreed to marry Yang Muyan years back, because of which Zhao Anan was away from A City for many years. Although they had broken up at that time, it could be seen that Zhao Anan cared a lot about Mu Qing.
Mu Qing denied instantly and said, Master Jing, I swear to God that I have no feeling for any other woman. I am devoted to her only for my whole life. I have done nothing to betray her!
He didnt care about what Jing Yichen was thinking any more. Instead, he just spilled out the worries hidden in the bottom of his heart. He was worried that Zhao Anan would be in a dangerous position if he didnt say anything now.
Anan is angry with me and she is trying to hide from me. I can ept that. But Yang Muyan threatened to not let go of Anan in front of me and I am worried that if she everys eyes upon Anan, she might be in a dangerous position!
Chapter 445 - Seeking Zhao Anan
Chapter 445: Seeking Zhao Anan
In the past, Zhao Anan often went away and tended to be gone for half a year or so.
So Zhao Zhao wasnt willing to give her much pocket money, in case she would run far away because of too much money on her.
Zhao Anan doesnt have a lot of money with her, so she would not have gone far. I will try searching A City and UK first before expanding the scope for search.
Jing Yichen sounded cold, but he was still steady and calm.
If his men couldnt find Zhao Anan, then Yang Muyans men wouldnt be able to find her, either.
Go to Zheng Jing and ask his men to help. That would speed things up.
Mu Qing got slightly assured and answered briefly, Okay, I will go to him. Then he hung up the phone.
He knew that as long as Jing Yichen extended a helping hand, the possibility of finding Zhao Anan would improve. If Zheng Jing was with them, that would help greatly as well.
Zheng Jing knew about Zhao Anan being missing, but he had also thought that maybe Zhao Anan was just trying to have fun with everyone else. Only when Mu Qing came to him at home did he realize how serious the matter was.
Zheng Jing called the police office instantly and ordered everyone to start searching for Zhao Anan. Zheng Jing didnt even need to give any excuse to start the process before the entire police force set about the mission.
After Mu Qing left, Zheng Lun asked Zheng Jing, Brother, what was Doctor Mu doing here?
They had talked for a long while in the study and looked serious when they stepped out. Zheng Lun felt a bit worried. She had no idea about what had happened.
Zhao Anan hasnte home. It has been half a month and Mu Qing has failed to locate her. He is worried about Zhao Anan, so he came asking for help.
Zheng Jing didnt conceal the truth from her. He didnt want to hide it, either. She was pretty close to Zhao Anan and they got together every now and then. Even if he said nothing, Zheng Lun would soon realize that Zhao Anan was missing. She was trying to hide herself away from Mu Qing.
Zheng Lun couldnt help but look surprised after hearing the words. She sounded a bit anxious. So Anan is not back yet? Why is she trying to hide from Doctor Mu? She likes him, doesnt she? I think Doctor Mu treats her well too. Why leave then?
Zheng Jing thought for a moment before finally confessing to her sister. Lun, Zhao Anan hasnt been well. She has got an... incurable disease, cancer in her womb.
Zheng Lun paled when she heard thest three words.
She held Zheng Jings arms tightly and trembled as she spoke, Brother, you... you... are lying right? That cant be possible. She... she looks so healthy, she... she doesnt look sick at all!
Zheng Jing understood that Zhao Anan was the only girl friend his sister had since she was young. As a kind hearted girl, she simply couldnt tolerate such news.
He caressed his sisters smooth, ck hair as he sighed, I am not. Zhao Anan hasnt been well. But she is in remission now. She underwent intensive treatment in Germany for a long time before the New Year and didnt return until she had fully recovered.
Having heard the words, Zheng Lun said with hope in her eyes, So she is fine now?
Zheng Jing shook his head. It is not that simple. The cancer returned for the second timest year. She contracted cancer ten years ago. You know that the malignant tumor can return easily, right. That is why she doesnt want to drag down Mu Qing with her and always tries to separate herself from him. But Mu Qing doesnt want that. So she deliberately distances herself from him in this manner.
Zheng Lun looked anguished. Tears trickled down alongside her cheeks.
She never knew that the seemingly healthy, happy and outgoing Zhao Anan could have got such a terrible disease.
For a second, Zheng Lun understood how Zhao Anan felt.
If she knew that she would not live for long, she would definitely not badger her brother any more. She might have the same feelings and allow the man she loved, to marry someone else and lead a happy life.
After a moment of hesitation, Zheng Lun leaned into Zheng Jings arms.
Zheng Jing and Zheng Luns rtion was in a delicate bnce at the moment. They had broken through the barrier of ignorance and now knew how they felt for each other. So they were standing by each others side carefully and dared not take any step further.
After their mother scolded her once, Zheng Lun had refused to behave intimately with her brother.
But she was deeply affected by what happened to Zhao Anan, today.
Compared to Zhao Anan, she was already very happy. At least, she didnt need to worry about his life.
Zheng Jing stiffened and then gathered Zheng Lun in his arms.
It had been agonizing for Zheng Jing as well to look at her everyday in silence and not touch her at all.
He was undergoing the same emotions as Zheng Lun. He was luckier than Mu Qing. Although they were brother and sister, it was not a matter of life and death for them.
Brother, can Doctor Mu cure Anan?
Zheng Lun asked softly. She was so scared that Zhao Anan would one day leave them permanently. She got extremely upset when she thought of what might happen.
With her soft body in his arms, Zheng Jing said bitterly, He cant either, otherwise Zhao Anan would not have gone to Germany for treatment. During the past ten years, he has spent almost all of his energy and money upon the development of treatment for this disease. There have been some achievements, but curing Zhao Anan is still not a sure shot thing.
Zheng Lun suddenly felt a bit guilty as she said, I should have kept herpany. No wonder she looked a bit distracted when she was in the UK. I thought that she was unwell, but she said she was okay when I asked her...
Zheng Lun suddenly thought of something at this moment. She said anxiously, Brother, I think that Anan might still be there, right now!
Zheng Jing brightened up and asked instantly, Why do you think so?
Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun shared a room when they were in the UK whilst Mu Qing and Zheng Jing had shared one room to avoid the awkwardness between the brother and the sister. Also, it was much easier for Mu Qing and Zheng Jing to help with the guests at the wedding.
Because I once ran into her viewing the real estate information of the UK and she mumbled and said that the property market in the UK is not that cheap. I didnt think much about it at that time. But maybe she is trying to buy houses in the UK and stay there?
Zheng Jing thought for a few seconds before saying in excitement, This is a good lead. I will tell Master Jing and Mu Qing about it. If Zhao Anan is still in the UK, Master Jings men will surely find her very soon.
Chapter 446 - Embarrassment (Part One)
Chapter 446: Embarrassment (Part One)
Dont cry, Aunt, I have already sent someone to look for Anan.
Jing Yichen had just hung up the call from Mu Qing when Zhao Zhao called. She was crying so dreadfully as if Zhao Anan had gone forever.
Jing Yichen allowed her to vent her sadness, patiently. Half an hourter when she stopped crying, Jing Yichen said this simple sentence.
He was not good at consoling people. He would have hung up the phone ages ago if it had not been his aunt on the other side.
Listening to her crying for half an hour was more taxing than sending someone to seek for Zhao Anan.
Shangguan Ning draped an overcoat and walked out of the bedroom seeing that Jing Yichen was still on the phone for such a long time.
She had juste out when Jing Yichen hung up Zhao Zhaos call.
Sitting next to him on the sofa, Shangguan Ning leaned against his shoulders and asked drowsily, What is it going on?
Jing Yichen had yet to answer when his phone rang again.
Zheng Jings voice arose when the call went through. Master Jing, Zhao Anan might be in the UK!
He repeated what Zheng Lun had said. Maybe we can start by checking the real estate properties there.
Jing Yichen said inposure, Okay, I got it. Try searching A City too. We have to be sure that she hasnte back here.
After hanging up the phone, Jing Yichen noticed that Shangguan Ning had sat straight up and was frowning.
What happened?
Anan is missing! I just learnt from Zheng Jing that she might possibly still be in the UK. I will send someone to look for her, right now.
Jing Yichen called Tiger before exining anything more to Shangguan Ning. Tiger, let Lue back alone first. You stay there. We must use all of our forces in the UK to find Zhao Anan. She might have hidden herself in the country or she might have been kidnapped. Whatever the case is, find her and bring her back.
Tiger answered in affirmative after realizing how serious the issue was.
Shangguan Ning was still shocked after Jing Yichen finished the call. She had not managed to recover from the startling news.
Zhao Anan had been getting along so well with Mu Qing these past days and even visited Family Mu with him. Mu Qing had also met Zhao Anans family. The matter seemed to be close to settling.
Then, why did she dump Mu Qing again?!
It must be killing Mu Qing!
Seeing Shangguan Ning transfixed, Jing Yichen consoled her involuntarily. Dont worry, that is her style. She always does this and disappears. Tiger will find her soon. Dont worry.
Shangguan Ning didnt worry about Zhao Anan much. She didnt know that Yang Muyan hade to Mu Qing and threatened him about Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan was bold and careful. She could live well by herself.
She was just worried that Zhao Anan was so silly that she would rather live by herself throughout the entire life and bear the pain alone than drag Mu Qing down.
Shangguan Ning leaned against Jing Yichen and said softly, When I see her again, I will force her to marry Doctor Mu.
Jing Yichen chuckled. Can you force her? I dont think that you have it in you. Anan must have been born in the year of donkey, she is stubborn and annoying.
I have my own ways. I had thought that she should figure out the things with Mu Qing herself and I should not force her. But that didnt work out. If needed, I would be the viin to force her, even if it means that she will hate me in the future.
No one would wish a better life for Zhao Anan than for Shangguan Ning.
Zhao Anan was a good girl and deserved to be cherished and loved.
Jing Yichen would not have cared about Zhao Anan before. She was a grownup, not a child. She should be responsible for her own behaviors no matter what she set about doing.
But after he married Shangguan Ning, he was subconsciously affected by Shangguan Ning, and no longer treated people around him so coldly.
Okay, lets all give Zhao Anan a push!
The couple decided cheerfully.
But Zhao Anan was quite skilled at running away and was not going to be found so easily. She had fabricated her passport and identity in the past and it was useless to find her with these things.
Tiger and his men had to use many methods to search for her. Zheng Jing also promised high rewards if the mission waspleted.
After getting everything in order, Jing Yichen returned to work the following day. Shangguan Ning joined him as well.
In the skyscraper of Jingsheng Enterprise, the scent of coffee was permeating in the Presidents Office.
Jing Yichen said helplessly as he was holding the coffee which Shangguan Ning made for him. My wife, cant you just stay at home? I can work. What you need to do is enjoy what I earn from working and teach good things to our baby. What are you doing here?
Dressed in a navy suit and with a pair of ck t heel shoes, Shangguan Ning said something totally different from the answer to that question. Do you think that I should get my hair trimmed? Half ck and half gold makes me look so ugly. How will I meet clients looking like this?
Jing Yichen put down the coffee mug, stood up and said seriously, Mrs. Jing, you look very pretty and you dont need to do anything about your hair. If anyone speaks ill of you, tell me and I will teach him a lesson!
Shangguan Ning said reluctantly, Alright, just leave it in this way.
She showed a lovely smile to Jing Yichen, turned around and walked out of his office and entered her own.
She needed to go through all the pending materials. But there were too many documents and items for her to finish in just a day.
Shangguan Ning picked out the most important ones and started to deal with those first.
But despite the pile of work, she still spared some time in the afternoon and visited Liyu Science & Technology.
She had not been to Liyu Science & Technology in a month and had only received the reports from two deputy presidents who awaited her decisions.
Although Liyu Science & Technology was nothingpared to the enormous Jingsheng Enterprise, yet the revenue was still magnificent. And thepany possessed a special significance which made Shangguan Ning exceptionally devoted to it.
During the past two months, thepany had been making more and more profits with the staff strength increasing to more than 500. Shangguan Ning was quite satisfied, so she decided to promote some young people on this visit.
However, she had not expected that she would run into Xie Zhuojun the moment she came to the Liyu Science & Technology building!
Chapter 447 - Embarrassment (Part Two)
Chapter 447: Embarrassment (Part Two)
Xie Zhuojun had juste out of the guest room of Liyu Science & Technology when he ran into Shangguan Ning.
His face changed and then he stiffened.
He was here to discuss a coboration with Liyu Science & Technology. But he had never expected that he would run into Shangguan Ning here.
He knew that Shangguan Ning was the boss of Liyu Science & Technology. He had initially thought that Shangguan Ning had taken away Liyu Science & Technology from Yang Wenshu and Shangguan Rouxue, but it turned out that this originally belonged to her own mother and had instead been taken away from her by Shangguan Zheng and Shangguan Xing.
But that didnt affect Xie Zhuojun much. He needed to procure the order no matter who was in charge of Liyu Science & Technology, at the moment.
He was here because the director of purchase of Liyu Science & Technology happened to be his university ssmate. They had been good friends.
Xie Zhuojun had heard that Liyu Science & Technology was going to purchaserge numbers of fine textiles as New Years presents to the staff, so he gave his old ssmates a quotation.
His quotation was the lowest one among all the tenders.
If all went well, he should receive the order.
Textiles was Family Xies main business. Luo Rong, the director of purchase of Liyu Science & Technology, had already told Xie Zhuojun that they had more or less decided to ept Family Xies textiles.
Since the textiles were of good quality, each set would cost around 1,200 yuan. With 500 people in thepany, that would be more than 600,000 in total.
That was arge purchase order, one that needed to be approved by Shangguan Ning.
Being Xie Zhuojuns friend, Luo Rong knew a bit about the history between Xie Zhuojun, Shangguan Ning and Shangguan Rouxue.
He thought that Xie Zhuojun had been a bit too shallow in his conduct. The elder sister brought him back from the vegetative state but he turned to the younger sister, instead. It might sound like a cool thing for a man to get engaged with two sisters one after the other, but actually, it was ingratitude.
However, he also knew that Xie Zhuojun was in a terrible state, currently. Family Xie had arge amount of debt and the handsome master of Family Xie had now be a man with grey hair, one who looked ten years older than him.
There were enormous problems happening with Family Xies business. Their old clients, for some reason, refused to coborate with Family Xie whilst the development with new clients had be troublesome as well. As a result, there were many goods that remained unsold in their establishment.
What was worse, Xie Zhuojun, for some reason, had got a very fragile son who had been born premature. Therefore, the child had to visit the hospital constantly and stayed in the ICU, many times.
Family Xie had spent so much money to keep the child alive.
His engagement to Family Mins daughter was over as well and Xie Zhuojun was now a single man, rather a single father.
It was way too difficult for him to find a partner with a sickly child on his back. No one was willing to marry someone like him.
Xie Zhuojun had paid enough for what he did before. Though he looked terrible, he was much more mature and steadier than before.
Luo Rong was moved and wanted to give him a hand.
The textiles of Family Xie were quite a good choice in terms of quality and price, as well. He thought that if he concealed the source from Shangguan Ning while reporting, he might get the textile application approved.
He had worked with Shangguan Ning many times and knew that Shangguan Ning looked gentle and friendly, but was actually quite sharp and capable. It was not easy to fool her.
But Shangguan Ning had been busy recently and sometimes was gone for a long period of time. So he could probably get away with it.
However, Shangguan Ning showed up today and ran directly into Xie Zhuojun!
When Luo Rong came out of the guest room and saw Shangguan Ning, he knew that he was doomed.
Didnt the Deputy President say that Shangguan Ning was on leave? What was she doing at thepany today?
So was Xie Zhuojun doomed?
Seeing Xie Zhuojun stiffen and Shangguan Ning unprecedentedly cold, Luo Rong went up and said, Boss, what brought you here?
Luo Rong was two years older than Shangguan Ning but had been addressing her as the boss in thepany as did others.
Shangguan Ning threw a quick look at Luo Rong and said calmly, I made some time to check on mypany.
Having said the words, she stopped talking to Luo Rong and turned to Xie Zhuojun, instead. What are you doing at mypany, Mr. Xie? Are you here to use me of taking Liyu Science & Technology away from somebody?
She spoke in a sharp way reminding him of the stupid things he had said before.
He gave a small cough and said awkwardly, No. I misunderstood you earlier. I am here because I want to coborate with you.
Shangguan Ning felt that she had just heard the funniest joke.
Coborating with her?
In his dreams!
She didnt trust Xie Zhuojun at all!
She had spent a lot of effort in bringing Liyu Science & Technology back to its feet again. It was her work and she wouldnt allow anyone to ruin it.
How could she be sure that Xie Zhuojun was not trying to set her up whilst pretending to coborate with her?
I have nothing to do with you. You can turn to somebody else. Ourpany is too small for you.
Shangguan Ning said coldly and turned him down, immediately.
Coborating with Xie Zhuojun? With Family Xie? She would have to be really stupid to agree with that!
She was not a saint who would forgive everyone who had hurt her in the past.
Although Xie Zhuojun was prepared to be turned down by her, hearing her say it in such a hostile way, he also became angry.
He thought that Shangguan Ning was too petty.
Cant you separate private affairs from business? What happened between us should not interfere with our coboration. I am here for a fairpetition, and you must not bully me just because you are in an advantageous situation.
Shangguan Ning almost passed out because of his words.
She had not seen him for a long time. But he had not changed at all. He was still so conceited and self-obsessed.
Okay then, let me put it straight. There will not be any possibility of a coboration between Liyu Science & Technology and yourpany. Letting our history interfere with the work? Well, that is exactly what I am doing. Liyu Science & Technology is mine and I have the right to decide who to work with. How dare you talk about fairness in front of me?
Chapter 448 - Embarrassment (Part Three)
Chapter 448: Embarrassment (Part Three)
Xie Zhuojun had not expected that Shangguan Ning would be so rude and unreasonable.
She used to be someone who was open to persuasion, but now she was simply being intimidating.
Luo Rong was even more shocked. He had never seen Shangguan Ning acting so capriciously.
Yes, she was being capricious!
He had worked at Liyu Science & Technology for a very long time. On most asions, Shangguan Ning was good natured and treated her staff very well.
In the preliminary stage, she had worked extra hours with the technicians and studied the tedious technological know-how. She even ate the food boxes delivered along with the technicians, fearing no hardship or exhaustion. She was much like one of the ordinary employees.
She had never put on an air as the boss and showed a smiling face to everyone irrespective of their position. She had never been so fierce like now.
Luo Rong sensed that he must have done something terrible.
Yet he still mustered up courage and defended Xie Zhuojun.
Boss, I still think that Family Xies products are cheap and nice, worth the valuepared to every otherpany. We could save a great deal of money and...
Before Luo Rong finished his words, Shangguan Ning interrupted him coldly, Do Ick money? I have enough money that I dont want to coborate with anyone I dislike just for the sake of saving a few bucks.
What Shangguan Ning didnt know was that she resembled Jing Yichen in every aspect at this moment, including the posture, tone and artiction, especially the way she behaved as a Lombard despite her being a noble person. She had beenpletely influenced by Jing Yichen!
As the couple spent more time together, they affected each other majorly. They were bing more and more alike.
Luo Rong was totally dumbfounded by Shangguan Nings words.
He felt so humiliated standing there.
He would not have helped Xie Zhuojun if he knew the consequences. But he had been promised some cashbacks from Xie Zhuojun and it would be improper of him not to defend him at this moment.
Shangguan Ning did not want to seek any trouble for herself. She was pregnant and needed to stay happy.
Therefore, she ignored Xie Zhuojuns outrageous expression and went straight to her office.
A whileter, Shangguan Ning called for a meeting with the top managers and listened to the specific achievements of the past one month and the working n for the following month.
Shangguan Ning was no longer the newbie who had just stepped into the business zone. She had learnt a great deal after working in Jingsheng for so long and trained in different departments.
She was able to thoroughly analyse each idea and suggestion presented to her.
She had forgotten about Xie Zhuojun and was fully devoted to the discussion about the advantages and disadvantages of different products as well as their selling strategies.
As one of the directors, Luo Rong had to attend the meeting as well.
He saw Shangguan Ning who had turned peaceful and capable as if nothing had happened a few moments ago.
Soon, Luo Rong realized that Shangguan Ning was more powerful than he had imagined and that she was a woman who quickly controlled her emotions. She was not an easy to persuade woman anymore.
Shangguan Ning had no idea what Luo Rong was thinking. Nor did she care.
She had just learnt at the meeting that thepany was nning to purchase a set of fine textiles to give to each employee as the New Years gift.
After someparison, she realised that Family Xie did provide the best offer but she denied the proposal.
Just give money. Take each employees behavior as the standard and give them the bonus. The lowest standard is 1,000 yuan. Some other daily necessities of low value can be bought to cater to the festive ambience, so everyone can have a happy new year.
Money was undoubtedly the most practical option above all.
Many people would think that textiles worth 1,000 yuan might be too luxurious but cash worth 1,000 yuan would satisfy everyone.
Shangguan Ning had learnt this trick from Jingsheng Enterprise.
Most of the time, Jingsheng Enterprise gave out bonuses in cash. There were gifts too, but most of them were low valued daily necessities.
The result turned out to be excellent. No oneined and everyone appreciated money.
As a matter of fact, when manypanies gave presents instead, it was done to spare some extra for the leaders.
For example, if the price of one set of textiles was 1,200, you could never be sure if Xie Zhuojun sold the textiles to Luo Rong at the same price, or lesser.
The top leaders would always take somemission fees.
The more valuable the gifts were, the moremissions fees there would be. The price of the low value daily necessities was steady, and there was no margin of making any extra money there.
Shangguan Ning understood that one should not be too critical, so she had turned a blind eye to this kind of matter earlier.
But what happened today had affected her bottomline, something that she was not able to tolerate.
She knew about Luo Rongs scheme C he nned to conceal the truth from her about the resources of the textiles.
It was indeed a terrible thing to keep such an employee who might sell her out any time.
So after the meeting, Shangguan Ning turned to Luo Rong for a talk.
Luo Rong turned pale after he left Shangguan Nings office.
It had not been easy for him to get this job. It was high paying, steady and brought some extra small ie. He wont be able to get an equally good job after being fired from here.
He was from an ordinary family and had not yet gotten married because marriage would add extra financial pressure. With the housing price going upwards, he had not been economically strong enough to support the beautiful woman he liked.
He helped Xie Zhuojun because for one thing, he pitied him and for another, Xie Zhuojun promised that he would get good benefits from him after the mission waspleted.
But now, he had neither got the benefits nor remained employed.
Luo Rong knew that pleading with Shangguan Ning was useless.
But he could go to Xie Zhuojun andin to him.
He had lost his job because of him and it was Xie Zhuojuns duty to take care of him!
Chapter 449 - Not Worth It
Chapter 449: Not Worth It
The following morning, Shangguan Ning was sitting in the office of Jingsheng Enterprise and was dealing with the documents umted from previous period. Lu, like before, was sitting on the sofa next to her, licking a face-sized lollipop in delight.
Shangguan Ning was used to the two-faced Lu. She was amazed inside her heart, but somehow had a faint idea about what was going on with her. She, however, did not intend to dig any deeper into it.
As noon approached, Anna at the reception called and said that a Mr. Xie was asking for her.
Shangguan Nings face sunk when she heard about it.
She didnt want to meet Xie Zhuojun but she had to. Otherwise he would not leave thepany.
Jing Yichen was also at thepany today. The media had started to reveal all sorts of information about the new President of Jingsheng Enterprise after their wedding.
Jing Yichens appearance in the publics vision was like a bomb that had just exploded. He was noble, cold, and handsome. His tremendously powerful family background had made him the sensational headline of all media channels.
He was more popr than most stars, especially after he appeared in the interview at the economical channel of A City. He had be the number one personality in A City, so quickly.
Although Jing Yichen had said clearly that he was married when the gossiping beautiful hostess of the economic channel asked him about his marital status, there were still a group of women who were crazily fascinated by him and adored him.
Many people gushed into the office building of Jingsheng Enterprise and asked for the autograph or a picture with Master Jing, or even dared ask for a kiss...
Recently,rge numbers of resumes were sent to HR of the enterprise and almost all of them were women. Of course, some young and handsome men also showed frenzied feeling towards President Jing.
There had been many gifts and letters from fans of the entire national delivered to the PR Department of the enterprise. All the presents meant for the President would be received by the PR Department before being opened, stored into the warehouse and answered in the tone of the President.
Also, some gifts might contain some dangerous goods, which might be threatening to the President. So the PR Department was very strict about the iing gifts.
Naturally, when the outsiders got fascinated by Jing Yichen, they were also very interested in his wife. They were obsessed in digging out every piece about thedy of Family Jing, including her family and background.
But Jing Yichen had already foreseen that. He concealed everything about Shangguan Ning and no one was able to find out anything about her.
Shangguan Ning was not even in the same car as Jing Yichen these days. Instead, she drove the little tank to thepany.
When Xie Zhuojun came to her today, she needed to deal with him as quickly as possible and as well as possible, in case someplications urred.
What if the media caught some stuff and gossiped about her and Xie Zhuojun, then it would be horrible.
Shangguan Ning cared a great deal about Jing Yichen. He was a proud man who loved her so much. She didnt want to have any conflicts with him just because of Xie Zhuojun.
There were still many women gushing on to the first floor. Although the bodyguards already set up the barricade and stopped them from approaching, the first floor was still a dangerous zone.
Shangguan Ning met Xie Zhuojun in the guest room located on the third floor.
Xie Zhuojun looked better today than the other day. He looked exhausted and aged, but at least he was wearing a well made suit and his hair was neatly arranged as well.
Xie Zhuojun got a bit absent minded the moment he caught sight of Shangguan Ning.
He had never expected that they would reach the stage where they were right now. He became a failure, full of drawbacks and lingering at the edge of bankruptcy whilst she had be so resplendent and progressed to a sessful career and marriage. She was like a rose that had been wetted by the dew and gave out endless radiance, crushing him, a wobbly weed, into the dust.
Did he regret it?
The sourness and the pain inside Xie Zhuojuns heart instantly consumed him.
He did.
He regretted everything and he hated himself so much for having been immature and conceited. He hated himself for being blind so as to let go of such a brilliant woman.
Shangguan Ning was dressed in a ck professional suit. The long, slim pants draped over her straight legs and the pair of ck t heel shoes had a sprinkling of gold, making her look capable and elegant.
She was also wearing a ruby ne, diamond ear studs, white gold wedding ring as well as an inconspicuous watch which was worth tens of millions.
But all of those ornaments were just decorations for her. Even the ruby and the diamonds could not take away the brilliance of her eyes.
Xie Zhuojun had been with many beautiful women, like Shangguan Rouxue, for example.
But he could still get distracted by Shangguan Ning every time. He understood clearly that he was not worthy of her anymore, or maybe, had never been.
Shangguan Ning got a bit displeased seeing Xie Zhuojuns stare.
Mr. Xie, I have told you many times that you are not allowed to enter ourpany as you wish. I am a busy woman. If you are here for that coboration, I am sorry, but I cant and will not coborate with you. I wont change the decision I made.
Shangguan Ning sounded poised and distant.
Xie Zhuojun struggled toe out of the agonizing emotions and tried to respond in a seemingly calm way. I am not here for the coboration. I just want you to allow Luo Rong back to work. You shouldnt have fired him. Leave him out of our feud. He is innocent.
Chapter 450 - Sick in the Brain
Chapter 450: Sick in the Brain
Shangguan Ning didnt want to talk with Xie Zhuojun any more and didnt want to get angry with him either.
But that man always had a way to annoy people.
Shangguan Ning took a deep breath and calmed herself down before replying inposure. First of all, I am the boss and I can fire whomever I want. You have no right to tell me what I should do.
Secondly, I fired Luo Rong not because of you. Please dont think so highly of yourself. I fired him because he was not honest and gave a false report.
Thirdly, if you are such a just person, why not get him into your ownpany. What are you arguing with me for? If he is so good, why dont you make him your director of purchase?
Shangguan Ning did not talk very loudly but her voice made Xie Zhuojun tremble.
Shangguan Ning spoke in such a logical and critical way and made it clear that it had been Luo Rong who was the cause of his termination and no one would dare to hire anyone like him.
Family Xie had no ability to hire Luo Rong, anyways. Luo Rong had a sry of 13,000 yuan per month and he needed otherpensation, as well. Liyu Science & Technology had given him a car and long-term amodation, which was not something Family Xie in the present state could afford.
Xie Zhuojun wanted Luo Rong to get back to Liyu Science & Technology, otherwise he would feel guilty for his brother!
He assumed that Shangguan Ning would spare him. She had been a soft-hearted person who couldnt stand seeing others being in trouble.
Xie Zhuojun softened his tone when he thought of this.
Luo Rong is not a bad person. He was badgered by me for too long before he agreed to help me. Since you are the boss of thepany, cant you just take him back in? Yourpany can afford his sry. He needs a way to survive!
Shangguan Ning had never expected that Xie Zhuojun was here to plead on behalf of Luo Rong. She simply had no time or energy to care about this minor matter at the moment. She got extremely annoyed when her precious time was wasted because of Luo Rong and Xie Zhuojun!
This is my final word C I will not ept Luo Rong back in. Get out of here now!
Shangguan Ning said as she pushed the door open and walked out, leaving Xie Zhuojun seated alone inside the room, dumbfounded.
Xie Zhuojun had got shocked beyond words after hearing a phrase like get out from Shangguan Ning.
She was someone who never talked rudely.
Xie Zhuojun had not yet recovered when the door was opened. He looked up with hope only to see a little girl holding arge lollipop entering the room.
The little girl looked at him with her head-tilted sideways and asked crisply, Are you Xie?
Xie Zhuojun nodded subconsciously, Yes, I am Xie.
The little girl let out a sigh of relief. Oh, there you are. My Brother Jing asked me to toss you out and I will do that now. Dont cry out in pain!
Eyes widened, Xie Zhuojun wondered if there was something wrong with this little girl that she talked in such an exaggerating way.
If Lu had known what Xie Zhuojun was thinking at the moment, she would certainly nod seriously C yes, I am sick in the brain.
But she didnt know that, so...
With therge lollipop clenched between her teeth, she exerted some force and carried the tall Xie Zhuojun upon her shoulders.
Then she walked quickly to the window and tossed him out as Xie Zhuojun looked at her in shock and fright.
They had been on the 3rd floor!
It took only a second before arge sound arose. Master Xie fell upon one of the garbage trucks behind the building of Jingsheng.
As the garbage truck cleaned up the garbage of Jingsheng Enterprise, the driver turned around and took a look before mumbling to himself, Garbage truck for garbage only.
Having said the words, he started the engine and drove towards the dump located in the outskirts.
When he reached the dumpyard, the driver dropped the load into a pile of rubbish and then drove off, humming.
It was a pity that Master Xie dressed in a brand new fancy suit climbed out of the pile of rubbish with bruises over his face. It was already dark outside. Even the dogs at the dumpyard had fallen asleep.
...
In the living room, Shangguan Ning, who looked conspicuously worried, was sitting next to Jing Yichen. Opposite her was Mu Qing who looked even more worried whilst next to him was Zheng Jing who was bone tired.
They had been seeking Zhao Anan for days and she was still nowhere to be seen.
Large amounts of influence and people had been used to search every corner of A City and the UK. Zheng Jing, together with Mu Qing, had been to every possible ce Zhao Anan could be at, yet it had been fruitless.
Master Jing, Zhao Anan cant be in A City, otherwise my men would find her, unless...
Zheng Jing had been on run all these days and had not had a proper rest for days. He even sounded hoarse.
Zheng Jing might have been thought of as Zhao Anans boyfriend in outsiders eyes.
Zheng Jing didnt continue what he was about to say, when he saw Mu Qing whose eyes werepletely bloodshot.
Shangguan Ning was anxious. Fearing that something might have happened to Zhao Anan, she said anxiously, Unless what?
Unless Anan has been kidnapped by someone else on the sly.
It had been Jing Yichen who replied to her question calmly.
He didnt care about Zhao Anans love life or career, but if someone became a threat for Zhao Anan, he would hurt those who hurt her, without mercy!
Shangguan Ning got even more anxious hearing what he said.
Mu Qings fists clenched. The nails went deeply into his palm yet he didnt feel the pain.
His body was already numb towards every pain except for the heartache.
With Shangguan Nings hands in his, Jing Yichen said softly, It is just a conjecture at this time. Our men have searched every corner of A City and Anan should not have been captured. The search in the UK continues. She is more likely to be there.
Chapter 451 - Mu Qing’s Decision
Chapter 451: Mu Qings Decision
Shangguan Ning understood that getting more worried was not going to solve the problem.
She was just very displeased that Zhao Anan was being too capricious. When she was found, she was definitely going to be given a good lesson!
Zheng Jing, expand the scope of searching, go beyond A City and try the neighbourhood city as well. Tell me if you need any more men. I will coborate with your team.
Zheng Jing nodded seriously, Okay, we will expand the scope!
Jing Yichen turned to Mu Qing. You head to the UK tomorrow, join Tiger. The situation there is different and it would be difficult to hide whatever happens. Most of the time, they would need your medical skills. Judging from what Zheng Lun said, Anan most likely might be in the UK. Keep trying there.
Mu Qing nodded with a pair of red eyes.
His heart felt as if it had been ripped open, causing enormous pain.
He understood that he couldnt live with Zhao Anan, but what he had not foreseen was that after losing her, he would be tormented this badly.
Only now did he realize why Jing Yichen went so crazy and broke down when Shangguan Ning went missing the other day.
Even a strong man like Jing Yichen could not keep himself from killing when he found Shangguan Ning missing!
Mu Qing wasnt the kind to kill anyone. He was different from Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen used to live a dark life earlier, and that was why his lethal personality was formed. It was normal for him to want to kill someone. He could be very cruel sometimes.
But Mu Qing had grown up in a pretty healthy environment. He had a harmonious family and his parents loved each other. His cousins gave each other helping hands and the senior people took great care of the younger generation. Although Mu Wensheng had a rtively bad temper and whipped at him with bamboo strap, forcing him to study all kinds ofplicated medical skills, yetpared to the hell like training conducted by Jing Zhongxiu, his grandpa had given him a paradise.
That was why he had been an outgoing man who had no shadows inside his heart and was living a simple and happy life.
Mu Qing had helped save many lives. That was his responsibility and mission.
He might mess around with Jing Yichen sometimes but he never took anyones life.
But when Zhao Anan was missing, he couldnt even conduct an operation.
As soon as he caught sight of blood, he would get unusually furious and would want to stab the sharp operation knife into the heart of the patient.
Mu Qing knew that before Zhao Anan was found, he would probably not be able to touch the operation knife any more.
He just couldnt imagine the scene when Zhao Anan was bearing enormous pain somewhere in the world when he was fixing a patient. Maybe her blood was shed, maybe she was at the edge of despair.
Mu Qing was thronged with hatred in the beginning.
He wanted to teach her a good lesson when she was found.
But he stopped thinking like that anymore. As long as Zhao Anan could return safely and didnt leave again, Mu Qing would forgive her without hesitation.
What he hoped was that she could return safe and really soon.
Mu Qing firmly believed that he could find her. It was time to go to the UK.
ording to Jing Yichens report about Yang Muyan, she should not have done anything to Zhao Anan. She had been too busy dealing with the bomb which Jing Yichen tossed her way to care about anything else.
Also, no one knew that Mu Qing had actually visited Yang Muyan.
He had been desperate to know about Zhao Anan, so he straightforwardly asked Yang Muyan if she had captured Zhao Anan.
Yang Muyan denied it.
Mu Qing had held Yang Muyans hands when he was asking her the question. Yang Muyan looked quite cheerful because Mu Qing was willing to touch her.
But Mu Qing only wanted to feel Yang Muyans pulse to see if she was lying.
He was familiar with everything about the human body after being a doctor for so long. But he had also picked up the skill of distinguishing lies from truth from Zheng Jing in recent times.
Judging from Yang Muyans look, the movement of her pupils and pulse, Mu Qing was 90% sure that Yang Muyan was not lying.
Unless Yang Muyand had gone through extreme training like an agent, she would not have seeded in lying to Mu Qing.
Although Mu Qing didnt know Yang Muyan well, judging from their few interactions she would not bother to lie about what she did.
Maybe that was what geniuses were like. They never lied about what they had done, instead they were proud about their aplishments.
Yang Muyan was stubborn and an extremist, but she hade to hospitalst time and told Mu Qing that she was going to marry him bluntly.
If she had caught Zhao Anan, she would have been straightforward about it.
As long as Yang Muyan didnt interfere, Mu Qing was rtively assured.
Although his heart ached badly, he was not desperate.
The following day, Mu Qing asked his cousin Mu Tong to take over the Family Mus Hospital for the time being.
Mu Tong had a nickname of Wooden Barrel. Just as his name indicated, he was bloated and had a look of a wealthy man.
He had inherited the traditional medical knowledge of Family Mu and was the firmest protector and promotor of Chinese medicine. Despite him being a famous doctor, he didnt care much about being healthy.
He liked meat and never controlled himself while eating. That was why he had gotten so chubby.
But he was a chubby man with an open mind.
He knew that his outstanding cousin was out looking for his girl, so he supported him without hesitation.
Brother Three, go for it. All of us cousins can take care of the hospital. The hospital would function well, it is our responsibility, too! Dont worry, when you and sister-inw return, I will give the hospital back to you, intact.
Mu Qing gave a big hug to his cousin and then went on the journey towards the UK, looking for the woman who lived in his heart.
Before he boarded the ne, Mu Wensheng called Mu Qing and bellowed at him, forbidding Mu Tong to take over the hospital and ordering him to return immediately.
Mu Qing was feeling rather guilty. He had been dreaming about inheriting grandpas skills and bing a doctor who exceeded his grandpa.
But before that he needed to do this.
He knew that both grandpa and the hospital would always be there in one year, two years, five years or ten years, but his Anan was nowhere.
He was going to get her back and never let her leave his side again.
Chapter 452 - The Deputy President of Family Ji’s Enterprise (Part One)
Chapter 452: The Deputy President of Family Jis Enterprise (Part One)
In a small sized vi in the UK, Ji Bo was lying in bed with a pale face. His face turned whiter when he caught sight of the ironic expression in the womans eyes, standing in front of him.
I knew that you still have feelings for that woman.
Yang Muyan looked down at Ji Bo from amanding view and teased Ji Bo in her hoarse voice. She is married and pregnant. I never expected that you would have such a different taste!
Ji Bo burst out instantly. Shut up!
Turning against me so fast? Yang Muyan said softly as a patch of coldness hovered over her face. Why didnt you say so when you called me and asked me for help. Now you are alive and strong enough, you dare to shout at me?
Rage disappeared from his face when Ji Bo heard her words. He calmed down, gradually.
Seeing him wither, Yang Muyan continued coldly, You owe me your life and from now on, you have no standing to bargain with me. Do as I tell you to and if you dont, return the life plus interest back to me.
She sounded so conceited, almost as if she didnt regard Ji Bo as a human being. The proud and arrogant Ji Bo had never been humiliated in this way.
It was this woman who continuously stomped on his self-esteem.
There was a time when this woman had bent down on her knees and asked him to take her in and coborate with him.
At that time, Family Yang had just been destroyed. Yang Muyan, who had escaped from the bombing, was weak and hideous.
Ji Bo agreed to take her in and coborate with her because he hadid his eyes upon the resources she had in her hands. Her hatred towards Family Jing had also been a plus. But whatever the motivation, he had spared Yang Muyans life.
But as Yang Muyan grew rapidly, she became over confident and conceited, showing off her originally twisted reality.
At this moment, she regarded him as a ve and talked with him, the deputy president of Family Jis Enterprise, and the Master of Family Ji, in such an arrogant way!
But the strange thing was that Ji Bo found himselfcking any rage. No one except for Jing Yichen could annoy him or make him lose control.
Or maybe it was because he didnt think that Yang Muyan could show up in public, yet!
She was just a scary woman. She would never be able to win the respect of Ji Bo.
Jing Yichen was not a good man, either. He was a murderer. But he was a man with principles and responsibilities and most of the time, he was forthright.
With his face in the shadow, Ji Bo spoke with determination.
Yang Muyan, dont think too highly of yourself. You cant afford my life. Family Jing is at the top, followed by Family Ji. Your familyes much after that. Family Ji is not as simple as you think. You better coborate with me instead of thinking about controlling me. It is never going to happen.
A touch of fierceness shed across Yang Muyans eyes. She could sense the determination in Ji Bos tone, so she had no choice but to press down the desire of maniption inside her heart right now.
It was okay. She didnt need to hurry. Sooner orter, Ji Bo would obey her!
The most important mission at the moment was to crush Family Jing. She was going to exterminate all of Family Jings wings, in case some faithful followers took revenge from her,ter. For that, she needed Ji Bo and Family Jis help during the period.
She was an extremely smart woman who was good at finding others weaknesses.
I saved your life and you are not only ungrateful but also threatening me. Arent you worried that I will not save you next time? You are still thinking about someone elses wife. You would rather lose your own life for her sake. Had it not been for her, your life would not have been mine.
Yang Muyan had buried her truest meaning between the lines by saying such an obscure sentence. She was waiting for Ji Bo to get hooked.
Ji Bo was not as good as Yang Muyan when it came to conspiracies. Also, he didnt care about what Yang Muyan truly wanted.
He was in the same boat as Yang Muyan and only bybining their forces would they be able to beat Jing Yichen.
Most importantly, he didnt want Yang Muyan to touch Shangguan Ning.
No, you are wrong. I am alive because of her! Ji Bo sounded poised. It was hard to tell if he was cheerful or displeased. He was now getting good at hiding his emotions.
If it had not been her, I would have lost my life.
Yang Muyan had no idea what happened exactly back then. But Ji Bo did.
If Shangguan Ning had not cried out, the bullet would definitely have hit his heart and he would have died right away.
Shangguan Rouxue was the case in point here.
Jing Yichen was so skilled at shooting that he could hit a target urately even if he was hundreds of meters away from it.
It was said that when Jing Yichen was going through the training at the royal military school, he established many records which hadnt been broken till date. He was a natural born shooter.
Jing Yichen couldnt have possibly mishit the target which meant that he spared his life.
And that was because Shangguan Ning cried out and asked him not to shoot.
But the reason why Shangguan Ning defended him was because he had protected her.
If he had treated her like Shangguan Rouxue did, Jing Yichen would have sent him to death, no matter what.
Ha, so, Shangguan Ning is your savior, now? Then all my efforts have been in vain. If I had known what you were thinking, I would not have brought you here for treatment. I should have let you bleed to death!
You are different from her. She saved me but wanted nothing from me. You saved me because you want everything. You will lose the support if I die and it will be bad for your vengeance.
Yang Muyan smirked. She was satisfied.
Just as she had expected, Ji Bo truly had deep fondness for Shangguan Ning.
She had wasted too much time talking with him about these useless things. Luckily, she had got what she needed and was not going to discuss anything more.
After getting what she needed, she turned around and started to walk outwards.
As she reached the door, she suddenly turned her head. Oh, I almost forgot to give you a piece of good news. I have got Jing Yiran to work at Family Jis Enterprise. He has been given the position of Deputy President!
Chapter 453 - The Deputy President of Family Ji’s Enterprise (Part Two)
Chapter 453: The Deputy President of Family Jis Enterprise (Part Two)
Ji Bo burst out as he looked at Yang Muyan in disbelief. What did you say?!
Yang Muyan repeated in an unexpectedly patient tone. Jing Yiran is now the Deputy President of your Family Jis Enterprise, and he will share the same position as you.
Seeing Ji Bos face getting paler, she got extremely cheerful. Leaning against the door, she scooped out a small mirror and checked the reflection of her increasingly beautiful face as she stimted Ji Bo in a nonchnt tone.
As for the position of President... Well, you have not been so satisfying recently, so Ji Minjue will stay there for now. I will pull him down when you satisfy me. I have endless dirt about him in my hands and any of iting out would kill him. So, think about it. I am going back to A City. It is getting very interesting there!
Ji Bo was still in shock when Yang Muyan disappeared.
How could she make Jing Yiran the Deputy President of Family Jis Enterprise?!
They had made a deal when they were exchanging 20% shares of each of their families that they shall not take advantage of each other during the vulnerable time.
Ji Bo could attack Family Jing, but the properties of Family Jing shall be handed over to Jing Yiran whilst Jing Yiran shall not interfere with the normal functioning of Family Ji with the shares of Family Ji.
Ji Bo didnt trust Jing Yiran who had turned his back against his own family. He would definitely have bad ideas for other families too!
He didnt want to get Family Ji overturned before he brought down Family Jing!
He needed to get back home immediately.
He needed to get the position of President.
Yang Muyan had dirt on Ji Minjue but so did Ji Bo. He had not done anything till now thinking of the familys reputation.
But the most crucial moment had arrived and he wouldnt hold back anymore.
...
In a meeting room on the top floor of Jingsheng Enterprise in A City, there was a group of men dressed in suits. While everyone was wearing a ck suit with a striped white shirt and a grey tie, the leading man was dressed in a conspicuous sapphire suit with a peach
shirt and no tie.
When Jing Yichen opened the door of the meeting room with Shangguan Ning and two other deputy presidents of the Enterprise, they all got slightly startled by looking at their opposite team.
The leading man stood up elegantly, followed by the group of men, next to him.
He extended his hand towards Jing Yichen. President Jing, nice to meet you. I am Jing Yiran, the Deputy President of Family Jis Enterprise. I will be the person responsible for therge scale real estate program to be developed between us. Happy coboration!
Anyone who had coborated with Jing Yichen previously, knew that he never shook hands with anyone, be it a man or a woman.
Therefore, the top managers of Family Jis Enterprise got very nervous.
Sure enough, Jing Yichen showed no signs of wanting to shake his hands.
The atmosphere instantly turned freezing, but soon the dead silence dispersed, as if it had been a delusion of everyone present.
Jing Yichen just threw a cold nce at Jing Yiran and said arrogantly, So your family name is Jing? Change it. It is not a name that anyone can use. Otherwise, the coboration would not be fruitful. I am not a mild tempered person and people can get hurt or die if they upset me. I was wondering if Ji Bo is dead and he sent an outsider to the negotiations. I didnt think that my bullet would kill him!
I am sorry, Jing is my fathers name and I cant change it. I cant change my father, right. Otherwise, can you ask him to change his name, too? As for the Ji Bo you talk about, he is on a honeymoon trip. He is newly wedded and it is quite normal that he prefers his woman over his enterprise. Same goes for President Jing, right? Deputy President Shangguan?
The brothers were treating each other in such a bitter way as if they were each others worst enemy.
Their words were so sharp and it felt that they wanted to rip the other one apart.
Standing next to Jing Yichen, Shangguan Ning looked up at him indifferently and said calmly, Thats true. Both President Jing and President Ji love women, unlike someone who has turned himself into half man and half woman and can never be with any man or a woman.
Rumour was rampant across the city that the Second Master of Family Jing had be incapable in sexual activities because of over indulgence and that even Doctor Mu Qing, the sessor of the legendary doctor, and director of Family Mus Hospital, had failed to cure him. So now, he couldnt have fun with women any more.
As a matter of fact, when Jing Yiran became the Deputy Director of Family Jis Enterprise, the entire enterprise was shocked.
Jing Yiran was a famous figure as the second master of Family Jing.
Although he behaved ridiculously, everyone knew that he was lethal and cruel. Anyone who once irritated him could not remain untouched. Also, he had been removed by Family Jing, but he was still their blood. Family Jis Enterprise belonged to Family Ji and a Jing should never be allowed to be the leader.
That was indeed a huge humiliation!
Most of the top staff of Family Jis Enterprise were part of Family Ji and all carried the family name of Ji. They might not be immediate family members, but they were more or less rted. They would never allow Jing Yiran to interfere as a director!
Many people in Jingsheng thought that Jing Yiran had been promoted by Ji Minjue. He had not only given him the 20% shares but also allowed him to take the position as a deputy president. He was even asked to take charge of the real estate department and emerce department, which were the two departments that brought in the biggest revenue.
Since everyone was certain that Jing Yiran was Jing Zhongxius son and once a member of the family, they had at least stopped doubting that Jing Yiran might be a love child of Ji Minjue.
There must have been something weird going on, when Jing Yiran got the 20% shares, a gift that was even bigger than what was given to his own son and daughter. Ji Ling and Ji Jiameng had got only 15% shares each from Ji Minjue respectively.
Now, President Ji Minjue was simply a puppet at Family Jis Enterprise. Without the shares, he had no power or followers.
As for Jing Yiran, he had instantly be the second biggest shareholder of Family Jis Enterprise and held the second biggest shares next to Ji Bo, the heir of Family Ji, the man who had gone through so much cultivation for many years.
But everyone was thinking that Family Jis Enterprise was going to be taken over by Family Jing, so almost all the top managers of Family Jis Enterprise were attending this negotiation between Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran.
They wanted to see if Jing Yiran was truly bing part of Family Ji and if he could bring in profits for thepany.
They were all worried that Jing Yiran had been removed from Family Jing and he joined Family Ji as part of a conspiracy hatched by Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen.
Chapter 454 - The Deputy President of Family Ji’s Enterprise (Part Three)
Chapter 454: The Deputy President of Family Jis Enterprise (Part Three)
However, judging from the tension between these two brothers, it seemed that Jing Yiran had truly broken ties with Family Jing.
But how was Shangguan Ning, this newly appointed Deputy President, involved when he had broken with Family Jing?
Judging from what she said, it seemed that the Deputy President Shangguan had a hidden angst with Jing Yiran?
It seemed that Shangguan Ning was promoted at a rocket speed. Could it have been because of her beautiful looks that fascinated Jing Yichen, that she got promoted to such a high position?
Or maybe it was because Jing Yiran had some feelings for Deputy President Shangguan and was sour about not being able to get her?
There was also a woman Deputy President at Family Jis Enterprise. She was in her 40s and she had taken good care of herself. But she was not a match against a woman like Shangguan Ning.
She stood there and emitted an attractive charisma. She was friendly yet difficult to approach.
She looked beautiful, and ethical. But she spoke in such an unfriendly way and added fuel to the me. It seemed that she was not afraid of Jing Yiran at all.
It was well known that Jing Yiran used to be the lord of many womens hearts in A City. Any woman he had everid eyes upon, be it married or single, would be his toy for some time.
He would never let go of any beautiful girl with unique charisma.
Therefore, it was normal for the audience to deduce that Jing Yiran had fallen for Shangguan Ning.
However, after what Shangguan Ning said, Jing Yiran turned extremely twisted.
His resplendent face had gone red showing that he was quite annoyed.
Family Jis Enterprises deputy president lost his face in front of everyone at that moment. But other two deputy presidents of Jingsheng Enterprise smiled slightly. They were quite surprised to hear Shangguan Ning talk in such a rude way. She had been known as someone gentle and friendly who never embarrassed anyone.
It seemed that Shangguan Ning was furious about Jing Yirans attack upon Jing Yichen.
The top managers of Family Jis Enterprise had no idea who Shangguan Ning was, but all the top managers of Family Jingsheng knew the truth. They had been the guests at Jing Yichens wedding in the UK.
It seems that Jingsheng has been treating the guests badly. I dont think that our coboration will work out. You are not sincere enough. Are you looking down upon us?
All the top managers nced at Jing Yichen all of a sudden.
Jing Yichen threw a nce at the representatives of Family Jis Enterprise and said, It seems that there is ack of talent at Family Jis Enterprise and hence unqualified people have been sent to deal with Jingsheng. Please go back. I dont coborate with unprofessional people!
Jing Yichen led the way out, followed by Shangguan Ning and the other two deputy presidents.
Within a few seconds, only the group of people from Family Jis Enterprise were left in the meeting room, transfixed and dumbfounded.
Soon, they turned to Jing Yiran with a furious look. Had it not been for him, todays meeting would have witnessed a huge leap even if the deal was not finalised. After all, the representatives attending the meeting were people who came to do meaningful work despite a tight schedule. It was not a wise choice to have wasted their time.
Someone from Family Jis Enterprise stepped up andined.
Deputy President Jing, this was the negotiation meeting of the first project under your leadership. But we were dumped before it even started. Who would be responsible for the losses?
Deputy President Jing, are you helping us or ruining us? We have thousands of people to feed and without any business affairs, we would not be able to give out bonuses and would need to fire people.
Did you purposefully irritate Jingsheng? Or maybe you are just putting on a show for us with Master Jing, so that we will lose our business deals and help Jingsheng to consume us all?
...
Within one second, people kepting up with different versions.
Jing Yiran struck the table hard and the voices quieted down.
He stood with his back straight and turned to the top managers of Family Jis Enterprise as he showed a sinister and cold smile. Anyone who doesnt like me, can leave. Feel free to hand over your resignation. I am not only a deputy president but also the second biggest shareholder of thepany with 20% shares. I will do the negotiation in any way I want, got any problem with that?
Seeing that no one spoke a word, Jing Yiran smirked. Anyint would be useless, because you have no authority. Haha, what a pity, you have no right to say anything. Disobey me, and you will leave thepany with the little sry you have. Dont stand here in my way, go home now, you group of morons!
All the top managers of Family Jis Enterprise got extremely annoyed by what Jing Yiran said.
They were all senior staff of thepany and although they did not have many shares of thepany, they still had a few percent. They were all respected by Ji Bo and Ji Minjue and had never been scolded by anyone in this way.
They all got annoyed and left one after another.
The rumor that the Second Master of Family Jing was conceited had turned out to be true.
How could anyone like this be the deputy president of thepany and get so many shares?
When they left the building of Jingsheng, they decided to drive directly to Ji Minjues home.
They decided to jointly sign a protest letter to fire Jing Yiran!
But Jing Yiran didnt care what other people thought. He was here not to talk about any negotiation. He had no idea how real estate business worked. He was here only to show off!
He didnt care how Family Jis Enterprise would be developed. It would be best if both Jingsheng and Family Jis Enterprise could get affected at the same time as long as he would be the one who benefited from the battle.
He didnt care if the stock price of the two families dropped. He would be extremely d if both the families copsed.
Jing Yiran had always been a loyal follower of winning a battle withrge casualties of his own army. Even when he had been injured badly by Jing Yichen in the past, he would feel that he was winning the game as long as Jing Yichen could be pissed off.
He shared this trait with Yang Muyan. That was why they hade to an agreement with her.
Yang Muyan didnt give a damn about the life and death of both these enterprises, either. She would be delighted if both of them fell!
Jing Yiran tidied up his neat sapphire suit, opened the door of the meeting room and walked out.
Right then, a little girl came towards him with arge, unopened lollipop in her hand.
Chapter 455 - Personality Dissociation (Part One)
Chapter 455: Personality Dissociation (Part One)
The little girl was sporting two high ponytails and was dressed in a yellow skirt. She hopped towards Jing Yiran and spoke in a cheerful voice with her grape sized eyes wide open. Brother Jing, what are you doing here? You havent been here in such a long time. I missed you!
Jing Yiran feared nothing or nobody. He didnt fear Jing Zhongxiu who was strict and serious or Jing Yichen who broke his bones, every now and then. But he feared this innocent and lovely woman who pretended to be young!
She was already 26 years old, but her voice and looks, plus her intelligence, all resembled a girl in her teens. It seemed that time had stayed still for her.
But sometimes she could be different too.
Sometimes, she could be less vivacious than she was right now and not be so innocent and na?ve. Instead, she could be powerful and horrifying.
Jing Yiran blinked and decided to run away from this ce, otherwise this weirdo would carry him onto her shoulders and throw him around!
He regretted that he had not brought some chocte or colorful candies with him, otherwise she could be distracted by them, giving him a chance to run away.
What is it, Brother Jing? Why do you look so pale? Sister Shangguan says that if someone is pale, he might be sick. Do you need to visit the hospital? Brother Mu Qing is a good doctor. He can do a check up for you.
Lu blinked and looked innocent. She didnt know that Mu Qing had already gone abroad.
Jing Yiran got so annoyed that blood rushed up to his head when he heard about Mu Qing!
Damn Mu Qing, he had put so many needles in his manhood that it hadnt gone up in a long time. It was no longer as strong as it used to be.
And he had been teased by Shangguan Ning. It was so depressing that he had an impulse to kill himself!
Lu, I am not feeling well, so I will be off now. I will keep youpany,ter. Bye now!
Having said the words, Jing Yiran decided to sneak away.
But Lu caught his arm suddenly and he couldnt pull it away from her.
Brother Jing, stay with me and y. People here are so boring and they dont y with me. Sister Shangguan is busy with work and I am bored. Lets y wrestling!
Jing Yiran shivered and said, Lu, I am sick today, so I cant y with you. What about some other day, instead? See, your candy is melting!
Wrestling?!
He would lose his life by ying with Lu!
This girl had be so strong because of whatever she ate. No one would ever dare to y with her!
Lu would not want Jing Yiran to go away.
With one hand holding on to Jing Yirans arm and the other holding the lollipop, she said eagerly, If you keep mepany, I will give you the lollipop!
The lollipop almost poked his face, scaring him.
He lost his patience and was about to curse her when he suddenly got attracted by the scent of the lollipop. He couldnt help but take a sniff.
Strange enough, why did the scent feel so familiar?
He had smelled this somewhere before.
Something clicked in his brain and he suddenly realized where he had smelled it before.
He scooped Lu into his arms and sniffed around her neck.
Brother Jing, what are you doing? It tickles so much. Why are you holding me? Sister Shangguan says that only my husband can hold me. If you want to hold me, you must marry me!
Sure enough, it was the same smell.
Sweet candy blended with the strong fragrance of chocte!
It was Lu!
Jing Yiran almost lost his breath as the realization dawned on him.
This was impossible!
The feeling the woman gave to him when he was sleeping differed from that of Lu entirely.
He was certain that the woman was mature, someone with strong capability, not a wed little girl like Lu.
Jing Yiran held Lus shoulders and lookedpletely confused. He asked. Who on earth are you?
But Lu looked even more confused than him. Are you dumb, Brother Jing? I am Lu! Oh, now I share the same family name with Sister Shangguan. Haha, I am Shangguan Lu. Does it sound nice?
Jing Yiran stared into Lus eyes intensely, but much to his disappointment, she didnt show any sign of pretentiousness. She was not lying.
What was happening?
Lu gave him a sense of familiarity, but it was a feeling that disappeared as soon as he started to talk with her.
He always felt that Lu resembled someone, but he had no clue who was it.
Encouraged, Jing Yiran asked her again the question which he had repeated so many times. Lu, do you have a twin sister?
Lu shook her head in bewilderment as usual. No, I am an orphan. I have no family! But, Brother Jing, I remember you asked me this question before also.
Jing Yiran got so irritated that he tugged at Lus hair, messing her braids.
He removed her braids and tossed the rubber bands onto the ground.
Lu lookedpletely different with her hair down, especially when she was silent.
She looked charming and innocent.
Staring at her, Jing Yiran was attacked by the sense of familiarity again.
And it was a feeling stronger than ever.
He raised Lus exquisite chin and said seriously, I have seen you before, but I just cant remember it.
Lu stretched out her hand, stood up on the tip of her toes and started to massage Jing Yirans forehead.
The moment their skin touched, Jing Yirans body underwent an electrical shock.
In his recurring dream, there was a hand that caressed his forehead with slightly freezing fingertips many times, gently. The sigh still seemed to linger next to his ears. Why bother...
Chapter 456 - Personality Dissociation (Part Two)
Chapter 456: Personality Dissociation (Part Two)
However, reality soon invaded his thoughts CNo fever, Brother Jing? Is your brain damaged, then? Maybe your brain is dead, as Sister Shangguan says.
They were currently at the rooftop of the office building of Jingsheng Enterprise and there was no one else in sight.
Jing Yiran thought of something and started to rip Lus clothes, roughly.
Startled, Lu tossed her favorite lollipop onto the ground. With clothes clenched tightly in her hands, she stuttered for the first time.
Brother Jing, are you... you ... trying to rape me? I... I will scream! I know that I am good-looking but... but you are not my husband and you cant take off my clothes. We... We are man and woman and I am a grownup. I cant get close to you.
Jing Yiran ignored what she said and ripped off Lus clothes.
The exposed skin was white and tender, yet there were many scars, both conspicuous and light. Some of them had even faded away.
Lu had a totally different reaction towards Jing Yiran today from that day when he did the same thing at the vi.
Confused, Jing Yiran burst out. Lu, do you have schizomania?
Jing Yiran was shocked himself after he spilled out the words.
Schizomania?
No, he corrected his thoughts. She was suffering from a personality dissociation!
He had seen two kinds of Lus personalities. At the beginning, it was quite weird, butter, he got used to it.
It was not until today when this thought shed across his brain.
Lus behaviour matched with the symptoms of personality dissociation.
There were two individuals with independent awareness inside her body.
Being stripped off by Jing Yiran, Lu cried out in tears. Brother Jing, you are so bad. You have ripped off the clothes which Sister Shangguan gave me. She bought these clothes for me in the UK. Repay me!! And look at my lollipop. It is all broken. You must make up for that, too.
Startled, Jing Yiran wiped off her tears as he pampered her. Lovely Lu, I will buy you a lollipop and new clothes as well,e with me, okay?
Lu looked up and said innocently, Okay, okay! I wille with you. But I must tell Sister Shangguan first. She says that I have to tell her wherever I go.
Jing Yiran nodded inposure. Dont worry, lets go first and we can make a call to herter.
He took off his overcoat and draped over Lu, took her into the elevator, reached the underground parking lot and drove her to his own vi.
Jing Yiran asked the servants to buy choctes and candy whilst making Lu stay next to him. He kept talking to her.
He wanted to use all possible means to find the other Lu hidden inside the body.
Lu forgot about Shangguan Ning and Lu Qings words immediately after being surrounded by candies and Jing Yiran who was spending time with her.
Back in the Presidents office in Jingsheng Enterprise, Shangguan Ning sat next to Jing Yichen with one hand holding her chin and the other in Jing Yichens, asking him in bewilderment. It is so strange, why would Family Jis Enterprise ask an outsider to take over the deputy presidents position? Isnt that too dangerous? He has already got 20% shares and with that power, he has be too powerful. Arent they worried that he can cause them harm?
Jing Yichen rubbed Shangguan Nings smooth fingers softly as he said calmly, It cant be Ji Bos idea. Yang Muyan is the one behind this. I am sure that Family Jis Enterprise will certainly do something in the next few days. Maybe it is the time for us to do something as well.
Do something? Shangguan Ning looked bewildered. Are you nning to buy out Family Jis Enterprise?
Wasnt that being a bit too lofty?
Pride hovered over Jing Yichens handsome face. Why not? Family Jis Enterprise is in a dangerous position with a chaotic infight. It is quite easy to buy it out at this moment. We didnt do it before because I was toozy to care about it. But if they want to irritate me, they have to be ready to be eaten up by me.
Shangguan Ning suspected that Jing Yichen was trying to cause grief to Ji Bo.
And the best way to do so was to buy out Family Jis Enterprise that he cared so much about.
With head leaning against Jing Yichen, Shangguan Ning looked at their hands that were joined.
She said, I support you but you have to promise that you mustnt get hurt. Acquiring Family Ji is not a piece of cake. You must n well, in case it backfires.
Jing Yichen smiled. Dont worry, nothing would dare to go wrong. It will be broken before it does. Wait for my good news, and before long, Family Ji would disappear from A City.
Shangguan Ning found him sounding determined.
Everything Jing Yichen had made up his mind to do, had seeded. Shangguan Ning had a feeling that Jingsheng Enterprise was definitely going to buy out the second biggest business enterprise of A City.
Shangguan Ning suddenly pitied Ji Bo. He might be regretting havingbined forces with Yang Muyan.
Ji Bo had no time to regret anything. He was not entirely cured before he boarded the ne back home. He went directly to Ji Minjues vi after he got off the ne.
The uncle and the nephew talked until midnight, during which time they argued and shouted at each other, until finally, they calmed down.
The following day, Ji Minjue gave up the position and Ji Bo officially took over the position of the President of Family Jis Enterprise.
Unexpectedly, Ji Bo was supported by all the top managers of Family Jis Enterprise. Suddenly, he had be the most popr president in thepany. Even the old cadres who used to be devoted to Ji Minjue had all bent their knees to Ji Bo.
When Jing Yichen got to know about this matter, he smiled, showing no change of emotion at all.
He had expected that Ji Bo would be the president. But he might have achieved the goal a bit too quickly.
After all, Ji Bo was not extreme. He loved his family, so he would never do anything to hurt his uncle.
But some abnormal methods must have been used when Ji Minjue was reced.
Ji Bo was actually in a panic.
Chapter 457 - Personality Dissociation (Part Three)
Chapter 457: Personality Dissociation (Part Three)
The freezing winter wind blew across the window. The temperature had been going down gradually. Despite being close to the sea, A City was getting dry, and cold.
There was not a single star seen in the sky on this silent and dark night. The moon had been hidden away under the thick clouds, leaving only a faint glowing circle behind.
It was exceptionally quiet in the vi as silent footsteps approached towards her room.
Being an assassin for years, Lu was extremely sensitive. Without any hesitation, she grasped the arm that reached for her. She tichetened her fingers and aimed straight for the mans throat, all within the blink of an eye.
Less than one secondter, this man would be one of the numerous people she had killed.
Lu, it is me!
The scream ripped through the night, echoing over the quiet vi.
Lus fingers had moved too fast for her to withdraw, so she struck the man instead of killing him.
With a loud banging sound, the man flopped to the ground. The sound indicated that the man must have had a very painful fall.
Lu turned on the light and looked at the man lying on his all fours on the ground. She asked him calmly, What are you doing with the knife?
Jing Yiran almost choked when Lu struck him on the throat.
He suspected that his Adams apple had been smashed by Lu. She was unbelievably strong and one strike from her would surely kill him.
He coughed a little and regained his breath before trying to get up from the floor.
It was a test! You are too cautious. I almost died. Ruthless woman!
Jing Yiran gazed at Lu, trying to discern something from her.
Lu looked up and said coldly, A test for what?
Her special voice and the unique tone creeped people out. She sounded cold but in a baby-like voice.
It seemed as if she was thinking like an adult whilst having a body of a child.
Jing Yiran came close to Lu, lifted her chin and looked straight into her eyes as he said sinisterly, A test to confirm my guess.
Then, was your guess correct? Lu didnt move. She allowed Jing Yiran to feel her lips with his fingers.
A smile hovered over Jing Yirans handsome face. He was a good-looking man who could sway both women and men. His smile could fascinate almost everyone.
Not surprisingly, Lu got a bit distracted.
The long amorous eyes, the straight and tall nose bridge, the sexy lips, the neatly trimmed short hair as well as the long eyshes had made him a man created almost like a favor from God.
He behaved elegantly and didnt look pretentious.
Tall and towering, he was muscr. Being half-naked at the moment exposed his sexy and bulging muscles.
Although Lu was used to seeing half dressed men, she was still a bit amazed by Jing Yirans body.
I think my guess is right.
Then Jing Yiran showed his usual smile and started to caress Lus exquisite eyebrows.
I guessed that you have fallen for me!
Jing Yiran spilled out such provocative words, but Lu didnt even blink.
It is okay, you dont have to worry about anything. I am used to girls running after me. It would be weird if you do not fall for me!
Take medicine if you are sick, and dont disturb me anymore.
Lu snapped back, turned around and was about to leave.
But Jing Yiran pulled her towards him and pushed her against the wall. Trapping her in his arms, he lowered his head slowly.
I knew I was right. You are suffering from personality dissociation and both versions of you like me. Of course, maybe now you like me for real whilst the other you, just treats me as a brother.
You do not need to remind me of being sick, thanks!
To Jing Yirans surprise, Lu admitted the truth without any hesitation.
He had thought that she would try to hide the truth.
Excited, he said, You trust me?
Lu looked at him in astonishment. Why would I trust you?
Then why did you tell me your most important secret?
Because either part of me would be capable enough to kill you within a second.
Jing Yiran was annoyed. He got touched for nothing!
But it was the first time that he met anyone suffering from personality dissociation. He had never thought about it because it was, after all, a rare disease.
When do you switch yourself?
Boring! Lu snapped seeing that Jing Yiran was excited beyond words.
Jing Yiran was not affected by her words. Instead, he continued with an excited expression. I guess that the mature side of you pops out when you are in danger. If the environment is steady or cheerful, the silly kind will rece you, right?
Despite being surprised by Jing Yirans capability of analyzing, Lu didnt show any change of expression. She neither denied nor agreed with it.
But Jing Yiran felt that she had tacitly agreed with what he said.
He got even more excited as he started to talk. I have done some research about why you would get this kind of condition. Many patients experience some tremendous trauma that they cant live through. As a result, the mind suppresses one side of the personality in self-defense and disys another kind. What happened to you?
For the first time in the night, Lus expression changed. She had not been affected even when Jing Yiran used her of falling for him. But at this moment, she almost couldnt hold her emotions back any more. She suddenly got so outraged that she wanted to break Jing Yirans neck!
What had happened to her?
Well, she was a lethal killer. What could possibly have happened? She just killed, constantly, always.
As her emotions were getting out of control, Lu almost couldnt resist her impulses any more. A certain familiar scene emerged, tormenting her fragile nerves.
Your hand is bleeding!
At this moment, Jing Yiran suddenly held her palm in his own.
She said hoarsely, I am fine.
Jing Yiran took a look at her fingers and the blood stain on the de, he said regretfully, I have hurt you idently.
Chapter 458 - The Angel and the Demon (Part One)
Chapter 458: The Angel and the Demon (Part One)
Lu didnt move even an inch when her tiny hand was in Jing Yiransrge hand. She didnt realise that blood had started to drip out of her hand.
Pain didnt affect her as much. She had been a killer for a very long time.
Her fingers were probably warmer than Jing Yirans, but she felt chill all over her hands and feet, and unconsciously tried to seek warmth.
But she had been by herself for a long time and dare not indulge herself into the warmth of the unknown.
She was her best in cold and dark. Warmth would make her lose her instinct that she had cultivated after thousands of cases.
Why didnt you utter a sound when your fingers got cut! Jing Yiran suddenly felt his heart ache for some reason, when he saw Lus nonchnt expression.
Fingers were connected with the heart and when fingers were hurt, it would hurt a person much more.
But this lovely girl didnt seem to feel a thing.
Jing Yiran picked Lu and ced her back on the bed and ordered seriously. Sit here and do not move. I will get the medical kit.
Lu threw a nce at him. She neither talked nor moved.
Jing Yiran came back after one minute with arge sized medical kit.
He had the best equipped first aid kit in his house. He had got quite experienced in bandaging wounds, almost as good as Mu Qing.
He had been injured too many times for him not to be good at bandaging.
He took out a cotton swab and disinfected the wound, proficiently. Then he brought out white gauze and dressed her wound.
Soon, Jing Yiran had managed to bandage Lus wound.
He couldnt help but feel proud. How is it? I am very good at doing this, right? If I run out of money in the future, I can open a clinic and help those with broken bones and wounds. I would definitely be good at it!
Lus heart softened when she watched him proficiently bandaging the wound for her.
He would not have gotten so good at it if he had not been injured so many times, himself.
She looked at Jing Yirans beautiful face. Then she said in a serious tone, Stop being Jing Yichens enemy. You are not going to defeat him.
Startled, Jing Yiran got extremely furious!
He kicked the first-aid kit aside so that the ss bottles in the kit ttered against each other. Then he bellowed, Bullshit! Why am I not capable of defeating him? Does he have so many arms or eyes that he can keep me down all the time? He is just a human being and the only thing I dont havepared to him, is money. Else he would have been defeated ages ago!
Jing Yiran couldnt hold back his anger. He was like a firecracker that had been ignited, sttering everywhere.
Everyone speaks highly of him. Why do they think that I am worse than him? Why must I lose to him? I am telling you that you are all wrong, totally wrong! I will defeat him and make him a hobo. I will let all of you understand that you were blind not to recognise me being the better one!
Lu listened to his roaring and didnt speak peacefully until he calmed down. I am not saying that you are not as good as he is. Just dont be his enemy, or you will suffer.
Jing Yiran didnt pay attention to her words. He got extremely furious. Get out of here now. You are at my home and still defending others. I am so silly to have brought you in. I should have stabbed you just now before you could annoy me.
Lu stood up and walked outside, peacefully. I will leave, but what you need to know is that you cant kill me. I have been sparing your life, or you would have turned into a corpse a long time ago.
Saying so, she walked away.
Before Jing Yiran realised the import of her words, Lu had already disappeared.
He felt very sorry.
Lus finger was injured and she was wearing minimal clothes. The temperature outside had already dropped to minus 5 degree. It would be too dangerous for a single girl to go outside alone at this hour of the day. She was pretty and had a baby-like face. What if someoneid eyes on her and did something bad to her?
Jing Yiran ran out after her without any hesitation.
He seemed to have forgotten that Lu would be the one who did bad things to anyone who tried to hit upon her.
Jing Yiran didnt want to think about why he would run out behind her.
All he wanted was to get the straightforward woman back to his side.
Jing Yiran put on an overcoat and started to walk outside. He mumbled inside his heart C Jesus, she was even more hot-tempered than he was!
He had just gotten a little angry and talked a little bit louder than usual but she had thrown temper back at him. She was stubborn.
Lu had been in Family Jing for years. She was mostly absent but she was the closest woman to Jing Yiran after so many years.
Jing Yiran liked beautiful girls, but he didnt linger on with any. The woman he had been with would notst next to him for over a week.
Lu was a good-looking woman, lovely and adorable, and most of the time, she showed the innocent little girl look in front of others. Since it had always been safe in Family Jing, the lethal side of Lu barely woke up.
If Lu could be counted as one of the women of Jing Yirans life, she must have been the woman whod been with Jing Yiran for the longest time.
During the past ten years, Jing Yichen had not been back to Family Jing, so his rtionship with Lu was not that deep. Jing Yiran, however, tended to mess around with Lu.
Lu was strong and a good fighter who came handy in every naughty thing that Jing Yiran was involved in.
Although Lu tended to have a switch of personality in the crucial situation and would get increasingly capable inbats, yet Jing Yiran didnt give that a second thought. He had assumed that Lu must have felt so threatened that she would switch her personality to face the enemy.
He treated Lu as his friend and regretted that he had driven her out at this time of the night.
He found himself feeling guilty. He could do anything to anyone and would not give a damn. But Lu was different.
The blurry scene in his memory became increasingly clear. Whenever he was injured, there was always a cold woman sitting by his side, caressing his forehead and cheeks.
Chapter 459 - The Angel and the Demon (Part Two)
Chapter 459: The Angel and the Demon (Part Two)
No one cared about him as much.
No one.
Thete Zhang Rong would not caress his forehead at midnight, asking if his fever had gone away. She didnt even care whether he had been badly injured. All she had cared about was how many properties he managed to get from Mo Lan and how many things he had taken away from Jing Yichen.
Even Mo Lan would not keep himpany throughout the entire night. She was too old and became tired easily. Also, Mo Lan was born in an aristocratic family. She would not need to worry so much when there were professional doctors and servants taking after him.
Only Lu woulde and feel his body temperature and check his situation silently in the night.
Jing Yiran opened the door and walked out.
It was ate winter night, freezing, and deadly silent.
There was no one on the street. He huddled in his overcoat and moved forward, searching everywhere.
Suddenly, a bleak voice arose behind his back. Are you looking for me?
Jing Yiran turned around in delight, only to see Lu in a thin top standing behind him.
He took off his coat and wrapped it around Lu immediately, then he picked her and carried her back to the vi.
Why did you walk out sote at night? Dont act so childishly! You are strong, but thats not an excuse for not wearing any clothes. Why dont you simply run naked instead? Did you want me toe after you on purpose? If you dare to run away next time, I wonte after you. I will let you freeze to death.
Jing Yiran got increasingly annoyed as he spoke. Then he kept spanking Lus plump buttock.
Lu stiffened all of a sudden when he hit her butt.
A strange kind of feeling spread over her body. Lu stiffened and bellowed bashfully and annoyedly, Stop it now, Jing Yiran!
But Jing Yiran ignored her. Lus bottom was beautifully shaped and soft. It was meant for caressing. He ceased spanking her and started to pinch it.
That annoyed Lu even more.
She slipped out of his grasp and reversed their positions. Then she smashed him to the ground.
Without the encroachment on her bottom, Lu felt slightly better.
She gathered the coat around her and reached the window of the vi. Then she jumped in, leaving Jing Yiran screaming in pain on the road.
The following morning, Lu rushed to Jing Yirans bedroom wearing only a thin top and a pair of white underpants.
Jing Yiran was surveying a part of his body, trying to see if it had gone back to normal when Lu rushed in like a st without knocking at the door first.
Brother Jing, what is wrong with my hand? Why has it turned into a dumpling?
Jing Yiran pulled over the nket and covered his manhood and almost had a nosebleed when he caught sight of Lus long, slender legs.
Lu, dont you know that you need to knock at the door before entering someones room? Didnt your parents teach you that?
Brother Jing, I dont have parents...
Jing Yirans rage suddenly decreased. But he still snapped when he saw Lus exposed legs. But you do understand that you cant run about in underpants.
I am not running about. I am just in your room. Nowhere else.Oh, I see, are you saying that I cante here in underpants? Do I need to... take off the underpants? But Sister Shangguan says that I mustnt take off clothes in front of men, so I ... I will stay like this.
Jing Yiran truly thought that neither of the two kinds of Lu was someone easy to deal with.
Luckily that there were only two of them, otherwise he would definitely die out of exhaustion!
No one asked you to take off your underpants. Go and get your skirt on. Never show your underpants in front of men again.
Lu pursed her lips and answered okay with a low voice and then walked out.
Seeing that she was out, Jing Yiran was about to get off the bed when her head squeezed in through the door crack, making him get the nket over himself instantly.
Lu asked in sadness as she looked at him. Brother Jing, you havent told me why my hand has be a dumpling? Did I get injured yesterday and I am now a handicapped woman?
Jing Yiran had studied various symptoms of a patient suffering from personality dissociation. He understood that the two individuals had independent awareness and didnt have any idea of anything that happened when the other one took over the body. All they had was a vague idea about each others existence.
He didnt know what Lu had gone through to suffer from personality dissociation. But whatever the incident was, it must have been more than what she could bear. That was why the second personality had been generated.
One was innocent and lovely, living a pure and happy life every day, faraway from the madding crowd.
The other, however, was dark and lethal, full of wounds and living a life that was full of danger.
Which one was her for real?
Could it have been that she had got lost too?
She didnt even remember what happened in the past.
Her name was not Lu. It was a name she picked for herself, just like the surname Shangguan that was given to her for fun.
She had a baby face and a kiddish voice. She must have experienced a great deal of misery, which might be worse than what he had gone through as the second master of Family Jing.
Gripped by a moment of heartache, Jing Yiran softened his tone.
I hurt you yesterday by ident. I bandaged your fingers. They will be fine in a couple of days. You can remove the gauze soon but dont get any water on it.
Lu asked immediately in a hopeful voice. Can I still eat lollipops?
She was a 26 year old woman, but still had a mind of a teenager. For some reason, Jing Yiran felt a bit touched.
He said in a rare, soft tone, Yes you can, but dont eat too much. It is bad for your teeth.
Hearing that she could eat candies, Lu cheered up and said happily, Thats great! I am not handicapped and I can eat candies.
Jing Yiran smiled too. But what Lu said in the next moment made his smile freeze right on the face.
Brother Jing, why are you not wearing any underpants in bed? Your bottom is showing. Shame on you!
Jing Yiran had been too much in a hurry to get the nket over him, so half of his bottom was exposed!
Chapter 460 - Present (Part One)
Chapter 460: Present (Part One)
December 27th was Jing Yichen and Shangguan Nings first wedding anniversary and Jing Yichens birthday as well.
In the morning when Jing Yichen woke up, Shangguan Ning leaned down and kissed his chin. Happy Birthday, my husband!
A bright smile hovered over Jing Yichens handsome face. Thank you, my wife.
The winter chill was blocked outside the window, but the gentle sunshine pierced through the window and cast its bright hue and warmth in the room.
Jing Yichen didnt take Shangguan Ning out to eat.
Instead, he drove her to the supermarket, bought the freshest vegetables and fruits as well as fish and shrimps, then returned home to cook for her.
Shangguan Ning had already booked the birthday cake the day before and it was delivered to their home in the afternoon.
Shangguan Ning carried the cake into the dining room cheerfully and then ran to the kitchen to watch Jing Yichen cooking.
She preferred to eat at home rather than outside.
Compared to any chef from any restaurant, Jing Yichen always exceeded them all.
Also, it was such a joy to watch Jing Yichen cooking.
He had such a handsome face and was so skillful that Shangguan Ning found him to be the best chef in the world!
This chef happened to be her husband. She felt herself so blessed.
Soon, delicious scent spread in the kitchen, making Shangguan Ning feel really hungry after a bout of the morning sickness.
Because of her pregnancy, Shangguan Ning was getting increasingly hungry. She often started feeling hungry before it was time for food.
The fragrance of the food made Shangguan Ning drool. Seeing that, Jing Yichen burst intoughter.
After they finished eating, Shangguan Ning ignited a candle upon the cake and asked Jing Yichen to make a wish.
Jing Yichen had barely celebrated any birthdays or made any wishes till date.
It was the first time for him to celebrate his birthday after the rite of passage at the age of 18.
Jing Yichen was not ustomed to this but he felt that it was indeed how he should spend his birthday.
Early in the morning, Shangguan Ning had also made him long-life noodles. She felt that the birthday man must eat a bowl of long-life noodles.
Thankfully Shangguan Ning could at least cook noodles well. She had spent her single days making noodles and porridge when she lived alone and it was not a difficult thing.
It was a birthday custom that the birthday man should eat noodles for breakfast, cake for lunch and dumplings for dinner.
Jing Yichen had no idea about it.
He was a bit excited and curious to celebrate his birthday with Shangguan Ning.
He didnt like making wishes. He assumed that only the leading actress of soap operas would do such a thing. When he was watching a TV series with Shangguan Ning yesterday and saw the leading actress making the wishe sincerely, he found her behavior hypocritical inside his heart.
Unexpectedly, however, it was his turn today!
You never knew what would happen tomorrow.
Atst, Shangguan Ning forced him to make a wish.
It is our wedding anniversary and your birthday, a double happiness! So, I have got some gifts for you.
Shangguan Ning passed a document to Jing Yichen in a cheerful mood and said happily, Open it, it is from me!
The phrase of double happiness should not be used in this way.
Jing Yichen shook his head and took the document which Shangguan Ning gave him.
He opened the file and it turned out to be the share transfer letter of Family Jis Enterprise!
And the share was 5%!
It was very difficult to get the shares from Family Jis Enterprise, since it had always been in the strict control of the family.
5% might sound little, yet it was worth billions. It was indeed a valuable property.
He was not sure how much work Shangguan Ning had done to get the 5% and for how long she had made preparations for this moment and how much she had given out.
Jing Yichen felt his heart ache. But he was moved at the same time. It was the most precious birthday gift he had ever received.
He ced his wife upon hisp and said delightedly, Thank you, Ning. It is such a precious gift. Next time, dont buy the shares yourself. I have ways to make Family Ji copse. You do not need to do anything.
Shangguan Ning smiled and said sweetly, I didnt do much. I made a deal with Ji Lili by sharing a secret with her and promising to do her a favor. That was why she got me 4% of the shares. I got the remaining 1% from an old friend. Since Ji Bo has 20% shares of Jingsheng Enterprise, we should also umte some shares of Family Jis Enterprise.
Jing Yichen instantly got serious and said in a very strict tone, Ning, no taking risk next time. I want you to live a steady life, and let me fight in the battle of business. You dont need to get involved. You might get injured. You and the child are the most important people for me. With you being safe, I can deal with them with an assured heart.
He had already heard of Ji Lili before he took over Jingsheng Enterprise.
She was ady with a very high position in A City and was able tomand almost everything and everyone in the city.
She was, however, as notorious and bad tempered as she was famous. Family Ji and Family Jing had been coborating partners before, and Ji Zhongxiu had even arranged a meal for Jing Yichen and Ji Lili so that the two families could have some friendly talks!
But of course, Jing Yichen didnt attend the lunch. For one thing, he had never eaten alone with an opposite sex person and for the other, he looked down upon the dumbdy like Ji Lili who was proud because of the family.
Ji Lili hadbined forces with Huang Xinyi to set a trap for Shangguan Ning not too long ago in the past, and Jing Yichen didnt want Shangguan Ning to deal with Ji Lili!
Shangguan Ning seemed to understand what Jing Yichen was thinking. She pursed her lips. I am not that weak. I want to join the fight too. Ji Lili is the most vulnerable member of that household and I got an advantageous deal for us. Just wait and see. There will be something interesting happening at Family Ji in theing days. I still remember what they did to me thest time.
Jing Yichen couldnt me her. He understood that she must have done a great deal to get this present for him.
He took hold of Shangguan Nings hands and said in a gentle and spoiling tone, Okay, I get it. My wife is the most excellent one and I will wait eagerly to see what happens.
Jing Yichen knew that Shangguan Ning was smart, but she was just not so good at insidious ns.
She had spent so many efforts in preparing the gift. Thankfully, he had prepared his gift timely as well, otherwise he would have been put into the shadow by his woman.
Chapter 461 - Present (Part Two)
Chapter 461: Present (Part Two)
Jing Yichen passed his present to Shangguan Ning and said with a smile when he saw Shangguan Nings astonished look. On our one year anniversary, I better find something that matches with your identity.
Shangguan Ning knew exactly what that meant without looking at the bundle of thin paper.
Because what she had given to Jing Yichen was the same.
Shangguan Ning opened it, and was blown away by the contents inside.
Jing Yichen had just given her 20% shares of Jingsheng Enterprise.
She asked with hesitation, thinking that they weighed a great deal. Isnt this... a bit too much?
What she had given to Jing Yichen was 5% of the shares whilst Jing Yichen gave him 20% of the shares. It was just too much!
Jing Yichen smiled. Not that much. 10% is mine and the other 10% is my fathers. We are indeed a tacit couple. We chose to offer the exact same things to each other.
Then in this way, you have only 40% shares whilst father has only 10%? That doesnt sound right. I will not take it. It doesnt matter if they are in your pocket or mine.
Jing Yichen was definitely not going to let her return the present. With Shangguan Ning in his arms, he said gently, As you said, it doesnt matter if they are in your pocket or mine. So it wont matter if it is in your name or mine. What is more, you have invested billions of capital in Jingsheng Enterprise, and these shares should be yours.
Some time ago, when Family Jipensated billions of yuan to Shangguan Ning, she invested all of it into Jinsgheng Enterprise.
She had never seen such arge amount of money before, so she gave it all to Jing Yichen.
With money in Jing Yichens hands, it would grow faster. He was a moneymaker, amercial genius.
Even Zhao Zhao gave Family Zhaos Jewelry business to Jing Yichen. An experienced business woman like her would prefer giving Jing Yichen thepany to improve it. So it was definitely a smart decision on Nings part.
Ever since she had married Jing Yichen, she had not thought about the money till the present day.
After thinking for a while, Shangguan Ning stopped rejecting the offer.
She put away the precious pages of paper and started to eat with Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen had made all the food she liked. She finished it quickly, making Jing Yichen smile constantly.
...
Ji Lili, who was on the other side of the world, spoke to the man next to her whilst sitting in a hot bikini. Book the tickets for me back to A City!
The man shivered out of fright. Lady, you mustnt. You have been grounded and are never to return in your life, otherwise the police would catch you.
Who said that I am going back as myself? I will sneak back under the name of someone else, not known to anybody. Who would they catch in this case?
But... but the Master says that if you ever return, everyone in my family will die. Please,dy, be kind and spare us. My family has been your servant for generations and we are hard-working people,dy!
Dont worry, you wont be affected. My cousin is just bluffing. He is a kind person and will not take your life.
Having said the words, Ji Lili went back to the bedroom and got changed, getting ready to return to A City which she once dominated.
She missed A City a great deal. She missed her home, her grandmother, mother, her dear friends as well as her beloved cousin.
Her cousin had married the ugly woman of Family Yang!
She didnt know about it.
Everyone had kept this secret from her.
Had Shangguan Ning not told her, she would not have known about it throughout her entire life.
Although Shangguan Ning was someone she hated a lot but she was grateful to have revealed such important information to her along with a precious secret.
It had been because of this secret that she needed to return as soon as possible.
Wait and see. She will make the cousin to be hers, only! No one else could touch him!
Cousin seemed to be fond of Shangguan Ning earlier but that bitch married someone else and she was even pregnant, so she couldnt possibly seduce her cousin anymore. As for Shangguan Rouxue, who once went behind her back to seduce her cousin, was now nowhere to be seen.
The two Shangguan bitches were now unable to seduce her cousin. It was time for her to take action!
...
Every seat was upied in the high-end meeting room on the top floor of Family Jis Enterprise in A City.
It was the first shareholder meeting being held after Ji Bo became the president.
He had recovered and looked extremely elegant and handsome.
Dressed in a formal suit, he gave out a steady and calming look.
He threw a scornful look at the dandy Jing Yiran and then nced away. He started to host the first and thest shareholder meeting of his life.
But Ji Bo, at this moment, had no idea that it would be thest shareholder meeting he would hold in his career.
He was full of energy, passion and confidence.
He had the perfect n for the future, not only for Family Jis Enterprise, but also for Jingsheng Enterprise.
With Yang Muyan, the executor and Jing Yiran, the traitor next to him, Ji Bo believed that Jingsheng was almost within his reach.
He was now the president of Family Jis Enterprise and had the supreme power that could dominate all resources. Jing Yirans arrival was an extremely unexpected and irritating matter for Ji Bo, but that somehow made Family Jis Enterprise to unite.
That he was able to be the president and to receive the full support of everyone had much to do with Jing Yiran.
Seated at the head of the table, Ji Bos phone kept ringing incessantly. He threw a look at the number and then switched it off.
When the man on the other side of the phone heard the buzzing sound, he got very anxious!
He looked up and tried to dial Ji Bo again after seeing Ji Lili disappearing at the check-in counter of the ne.
But the phone had already been turned off on the other side.
He had no idea why Ji Lili needed to return to A City. But he had a hunch that it wasnt a simple matter. Her return was definitely going to bring disaster to Family Ji!
Chapter 462 - A Narrow Miss (Part One)
Chapter 462: A Narrow Miss (Part One)
Ms. Zhao, time for food.
A man with an Asian face spoke to her in a low voice.
The man seemed to be around 27 or 28 years old. He looked rough and had really short hair. His skin was healthily bronze and his muscles stood out even under the clothes, making him look explosively strong.
Zhao Anan found it extremely strange. She asked for the 100th time. Do you know me?
He shook his head in silence. No.
Then how did you know that I am Ms. Zhao? You must know me somehow.
A fortnight ago, she was wandering on the street when she saw a stray cat. Out of pity, she ran after the cat for a while until she finally caught up with it and got knocked out.
When she woke up, she was at this strange ce.
Zhao Anan had no idea where this was, but she knew that she was still in the UK.
She had adjusted her watch to the local time when she came to attend Shangguan Nings wedding. Since she was not going to return home for the next few years, she might as well start using the local time, early.
In the beginning, she thought that she would be raped. Honestly, she looked very pretty if she tidied herself up a bit. Also, in a ce full of blondes and blue-eyed foreigners, a ck-haired, ck-eyed Asian girl would be quite attractive!
She had a nice appearance and a killer figure.
That man had a good sense of aesthetics.
It was smart of him to kidnap a beautiful girl like her!
Unfortunately, however, Zhao Anan found that the reality was different than what she had expected.
This muscr man in front of her had no interest in her at all!
Even though she was relieved that she was safe in that sense, Ms. Zhao still felt a bit disappointed.
Her next theory was that he wanted money.
But then why choose her?
She only had a few millions British pounds that she stole from Mu Qing. After buying a small vi, she had very little left from it.
She was going to live here for a long time. She would starve if she didnt have money.
She was an experienced runaway and knew that the first thing needed was to have enough money.
Else, she would be forced to return home in a short period of time. So robbing her was like killing her!
But many days had passed and no one was taking away the few pounds she had in her pocket.
More importantly, this man had found a wonderful ce for her to live in. He fed her and guarded her. It didnt seem like a fair deal for him at all!
Could he be her cousins man?
But he didnt look like one.
Cousins men would not be so hostile to her. This man looked violent, one that would probably kill her if she didnt obey him. That had frightened her into silence!
But this man knew that her surname was Zhao which didnt make sense. The ID card she was carrying with her showed her name as Wang Cuihua. So, he should be addressing her as Ms. Wang.
Zhao Anan had been held inside this house for many days, during which, she had tried to escape many times. But each time, she would be caught and brought back by the man.
Every time she was caught, she would be starved for two days and forbidden to drink any water or eat any food. It had been quite a torment!
If she had not been smart enough to get up during the night to steal some milk and oats, she would have been dead because of thirst and hunger.
Zhao Anan got quite annoyed when she thought of that. She sprang up and bellowed. Confess, now! Who are you and why have you held me here? It is illegal and I can sue you. Dont think that I will be grateful just because you feed me. I hate being imprisoned. I want to go out and have fun!
The man looked at her with a frown and said, Shut up, and eat!
Zhao Anan started shouting even more loudly when she saw him scolding her. Help, someone is killing me. Come! A teenage girl has been captivated. Help, Help, dont kill me!
Shut up! No food for two more days if you dare to continue this!
That was the most effective method. Zhao Anan instantly shut her mouth, sat down and started to eat obediently.
The food here was not a match against the food at home and she was only offered ordinary bread, beef and a te of potato mash. But if she turned it down, she would have to starve.
After the meal, Zhao Anan decided to go to bed. It was morning and the sun was shining. But being imprisoned bored her and she had nothing to do but sleep.
She needed to have plenty of energy so she could run away at midnight!
She had no idea who was her enemy. She couldnt think of any way to fight back, either. Luckily this man didnt like her in the physical sense, otherwise things would have been worse.
Zhao Anan was born to y around. Being captivated in such a manner irritated her and she was going to go mad if it continued.
Even though the consequences of running away were serious, yet she still kept trying. Every third or fifth day, she would try and escape. She had tried it at all time except for midnight.
Hopefully, she could seed in running away tonight!
Wait and see, she was definitely going to find out who had set this trap for her. She would catch him and trap him too.
Zhao Anan was trapped in a building which had 40 floors and she had been ced on the 39th floor. That was the worst thing about this location which she had found out after trying to run away many times.
If she jumped down, she would die. The door would not work either, because that muscr man had put his bed by the door. It was where he ate and slept. He guarded the door every minute of the day as if someone precious was lying there, waiting for him.
Unbelievable!
ording to her observation, the kidnapper had a regr diet and toilet routine. Around six in the morning, he went to pee whilst at midnight, he went to take a dump.
Zhao Anan felt humiliated. She was a girl and she had to figure out the toilet visit schedule of a man apart from Mu Qing!
Chapter 463 - A Narrow Miss (Part Two)
Chapter 463: A Narrow Miss (Part Two)
Zhao Anan was annoyed by what was happening. But she had to adapt to the situation since nothing else was going in her favour.
Once she seeded in running away and found her cousin, she was definitely going to ask Jing Yichen to tear this person apart.
No, she would captivate this man, hang him and punch him until he lost all his senses and organs. Damn him!
At 3:30 a.m, Zhao Anan got up from the bed, quietly.
The light in the room had not been switched off ever since she moved in.
Zhao Anan understood that the man needed to see her at all points in time and hence kept the lights on.
The man was in the toilet at this hour. Zhao Anan tiptoed past the bathroom and dashed towards the door.
Since moving the bed would make a lot of noise any which ways, Zhao Anan didnt spare any efforts or care about what couldnt be helped. Instead, she exerted all her strength and moved off the bed with arge banging sound.
Then she opened the door anxiously and rushed out.
She hadpleted the first step of her escape n.
But Zhao Anan didnt rx, because the first step of her escape n always turned out to be the easiest one whilst the second part often turned out to be the most difficult.
She rushed out of the door and dashed towards the staircases. She ran really fast alongside the staircases.
The elevator of the 39th floor was broken. It was not certain if it had been broken by the man. The main point was that it could not be used.
She rushed to the 38th floor by stairs and then took the elevator down to the lobby of the first floor.
Zhao Anan felt that anything with number 8 was rted to hell!
Because every time she rushed to the 38th floor, there would always be some problems. For example, she couldnt even reach the 37th floor, be it with staircases or with the elevator!
She knew that being such a tall building the elevator couldnt have possibly been staying at the 38th floor waiting for Zhao Anan to go down. Sometimes, all four elevators could stay at one floor at the same time!
For example, today!
Someone had pressed the button of the 1st floor of all the elevators at 3 in the night!
...
There had been no progress in the past few days.
Zhao Anan was now missing for a month. Mu Qing and Tiger, as well as Tigers men, had started to search in the UK thoroughly.
Luckily, Jing Yichen had offered some help in the UK, and a group of Asians and Europeans were searching despite day and night and at any cost.
Today, they came to a building that was well equipped and well guarded.
Mu Qing had not gotten the time to even trim his hair in the past few days. He still shaved himself every day though so that he could feel slightly more energetic and not look like a hobo who might be driven out by the security guards of various buildings.
They managed to enter this building because they had paid a great deal of money for it.
Mu Qing and Tiger went on separate ways, as usual. As Tiger brought his men for the searching one floor after another from bottom to the top, Mu Qing and his men started the search from top to bottom.
In order to stop anyone froming down the elevator, Tiger fixed all the elevators to the first floor, so that the elevator was unavable for the next two hours. In this way, no one would be needed to guard the entrance. What was more, on every 5th floor there were men standing on guard. It would be impossible for anyone to run without crossing them.
Soon they finished the searching of the 40th floor, but failed to find that silhouette in the deepest corner who resided in the deepest corner of his mind. But Mu Qing was not irritated. He was now used to being disappointed.
As long as there was still hope, he would never give up.
He soon came to the 39th floor.
Mu Qing, together with his men, blew some smoke into each household, waited for two minutes and then pried the door open before walking in.
Nothing urred after the search of the entire floor.
But Mu Qing felt that one apartment seemed a bit suspicious.
The ce had all the lights on and the water in the bathroom was still running. But no one seemed to be at home.
This apartment had one bed in the bedroom and another in the living room. One more was found at the entrance. This arrangement made Mu Qing suspicious.
But it could turn out to be nothing.
After looking for Zhao Anan for so long, Mu Qing had already understood that there were many kidnappings and murders which took ce here all the time. He had run into many such cases already.
Also, he found that many people had weird habits. It was quite normal that someone would have three beds in one home in different ces.
But it still needed to be checked carefully.
Mu Qing took out his camera, snapped pictures of the ce forter use.
...
Zhao Anan felt that nothing was working for her, today!
When all four elevators stopped on the first floor at the same time, she couldnt make the elevatorse up no matter how hard she pressed the buttons.
This was ridiculous!
It was a tall building. Without elevators, those people who lived on the 39th or 40th floor would need to have wings toe down.
Maybe the staircase?
Ridiculous! It was a leg-breaking scenario!
That four elevators fell out of function at the same time was not normal. Something weird must have happened!
Without hesitation, Zhao Anan rushed downstairs by the stairs.
She wanted to give it a try on the 37th floor. What if only the elevators of the 38th floor was broken?
She gotpletely startled when she reached the 37th floor, because that man was standing at the elevators door, waiting for her.
What bad luck! How did he manage to catch up with her so fast?
There were two staircases in this building and that was an annoying point, otherwise she would not have been caught.
Zhao Anan took a step backwards subconsciously, turned around and ran.
But it was toote. The man was faster than her and caught up with her within a second.
Zhao Anan struggled hard. She punched and kicked and even bit all over the mans arms. She could even feel his blood in her mouth.
But the man didnt flinch even once.
He felt pain, of course, and got extremely furious. But the man who had ordered her kidnapping hadnt allowed him to mistreat Zhao Anan.
Therefore, he didnt dare do anything over the top.
The man gathered his five fingers to form a sharp shape, and struck hard upon Zhao Anans neck, cutting off her scream that was about to burst out.
Zhao Anan fell into darkness.
A second before Zhao Anan passed out, she cursed inside her heart C this evil pervert, what a hard strike! She was definitely going to get a big bruise behind her neck.
He picked Zhao Anan and climbed up to the 39th floor.
Chapter 464 - Fetal Movement
Chapter 464: Fetal Movement
Someone was standing at the end of the corridor of the 39th floor, ncing at the staircase cautiously.
The man with Zhao Anan on his shoulders came up from the other side and saw Mu Qings man.
When the man went towards the other side of the passage, the man sneaked into the apartment.
The sound of the door closing suddenly made the guarde closer and check it. He walked to the source of the sound.
He had juste to the door when it was opened again. A fierce-looking man appeared and spoke some fluent Japanese words before mming it shut, again.
He shook his head. People from different parts of the world had different tastes and preferences.
After searching the 39th floor, Mu Qing started to walk downstairs with his men to search the 38th floor.
The man on guard recounted to Mu Qing about what just happened.
Mu Qing nodded. But he didnt lessen his cautious approach. He still made the room as an important house to watch in future. But nothing more happened in this houseter, and the guard didnt discover Zhao Anan.
He would have never thought that he had just had a narrow miss with Zhao Anan.
Many yearster, he would get so guilty and regretful whenever he thought of this matter that he would want to p himself.
...
One monthter, Jing Yichen received concrete information from Tiger.
They were now sure that Zhao Anan had tried to settle down in the UK and even bought a vi. But she had gone underground right after she bought the house and hence it was certain that she had been taken away.
They had searched the entire UK and failed to find even a single trace of Zhao Anan.
Lee Duo had reced Tiger and continued with the search. Tiger, on the other hand, came back to A City and continued to be Jing Yichens right hand man.
Jing Yiran had been proacative for the past one month.
He had increased his strength and followers but Jing Yichen made Tiger cut down these forces and to get them to switch.
Jing Yichen, on the other hand, was living a leisurely life.
He barely wore formal suits these days. Most of the time, he would dress in casual clothes and sportswear, because that was what Shangguan Ning was wearing and he wanted to match his appearance with her.
Shangguan Ning had been pregnant for more than four months, now. Apart from the morning sickness that urred every now and then, she was fine during the rest of hours. She felt a lot more sleepy these days, though.
Her belly had started to show and she could feel the fetal movement, now.
Shangguan Ning got extremely surprised and happy, when it first happened.
That was the first time she felt the baby move and she cried out to Jing Yichen to feel it too.
Soon, the baby moved again.
Jing Yichen got even more excited than Shangguan Ning. He smiled for a long time after he touched her bulging stomach. Everything was new and delightful for a new father.
The couple seemed to have found a novel toy which made them both excited and nervous at the same time.
Jing Yichen even brought her to the hospital for another check-up.
Mu Xin was still the doctor in charge there. She told Shangguan Ning that the baby was developing very well and the fetal movement would ur more frequently, henceforth.
Also, Mu Xin told Shangguan Ning that it was a baby boy.
Shangguan Ning was pleased after knowing that she was having a baby boy. She hoped that he would turn out just like his father.
Jing Tianyuan became even more delighted after hearing the news. But after the excitement, he felt a bit regretful.
He actually would have preferred a girl. There had not been any girl born in Family Jing in generations.
In the old lords heart, it would be great if Shangguan Ning could have both a boy and a girl.
But it was just a thought. The old lord was already very delighted to show off his great-grandson that was on the way.
Mu Wensheng had been in a terrible mood recently. He had be quite irritable!
All because his grandson had left his job and gone to the UK to search for a girl!
Also, because he had given up his position as the director of the hospital and decided to clean the mess around Zhao Anan!
His grandson was a 30 years old man, soon to be 31. But he was still so unsteady and was chasing after a woman rather than stay and learn from his grandpa. Whenever Mu Wensheng thought of this matter, he got so annoyed that his beard would shiver.
Jing Tianyuan had a great grandson on the way and his grandson was missing!
But senior men tended to love children. However much jealous Mu Wensheng was of Jing Tianyuan, he was still happy for his old friend.
The situation of Family Jing was less optimistic than that of Family Mu. Without Mu Qing, there were other grandsons who could father offspring to pass down the bloodline in Family Mu. But Jing Yichen was the only one in Family Jing.
When Jing Yichen was not married, Jing Tianyuan had actually been much more worried than he was now.
Mu Wensheng brought some herbs and made them into the portion suitable for the infants and gave them to Jing Tianyuan.
The main function of the portion was to enhance the childs immune system and the development of bones. Mu Wensheng didnt think, however, that the powerful gene of Family Jing would need any help in boosting intelligence.
Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning to Grandpa Mus home again and was assured when he saw Jing Tianyuan, who was obviously quite lively.
The old lord was leading a good life here. Although he argued with Grandpa Mu, he looked much betterpared to the time when he was living in his own house.
Mo Lan didnt care about affairs at home, either. She visited Jing Yiran every day, fearing that her precious grandson would suffer somehow. She didnt find it any weird no matter what position her grandson had taken up at anypany. In her eyes, her grandson had be more excellent than before.
For her, it was great that he had be the deputy president of Family Jis Enterprise and it would be even better if Jing Yiran could take over the enterprise as well. This way, neither Jing Tianyuan nor Jing Zhongxiu wouldin.
Time glided by and soon the year came to the end.
Jing Yichen and Ji Bo had been in a battle against each other for a long time and it was getting increasingly fierce.
Ji Bo had started to be part of some important and decisive meetings of Jingsheng Enterprise as a major shareholder of thepany. But some confidential and important things were not discussed in front of Ji Bo, who was a hungry rival.
Not everything went well in Family Jis Enterprise, though.
Many scandals had constantly arisen in Family Ji and many were lost. Their market share was shrinking and senior staff was quitting. Many old employees had resigned and left for secondarypanies with a higher sry.
Jingsheng Enterprise might have been affected by Ji Bos participation as a shareholder, but Family Ji had received unprecedented blow in every aspect.
Chapter 465 - Black Sheep of the Family
Chapter 465: ck Sheep of the Family
Jing Yichen had started aprehensive attack upon Family Jis Enterprise. The stock price of Family Jis Enterprise had reached the lowest point in its entire history and thepanys assets also kept shrinking.
Even the normal people of A City had noticed by now that the two enterprises were locked in an intense battle.
However, before Jing Yichen started to do anything to Family Jis Enterprise, it was Family Ji that gave their own enterprise a fatal strike.
Ji Lili, who had been driven out of A City, returned.
Although she had intended to return on the sly, for some reason, her return had been spread around making the journalists flood in at the airport.
Ji Lili was used to the cameras. Although she came back on the sly, she didnt think that it was a big deal.
What happened in the past was already history. She didnt think that she owed Shangguan Ning anything when thepensation had been paid and she had been punished. What was more, Shangguan Ning had made a call to her of her own ord and the hatchet had been buried.
So when the journalists tried to take a picture of her, she even offered to coborate with them for a photo shoot, though she had wanted to drive them away at the beginning.
She didnt care about anything and went straight to Ji Bos home with the journalists.
Yang Muyan was the person who was living in Ji Bos home, now. Ji Bo didnt live there, anymore.
Journalists, who had been seeking Ji Bos home and had failed each time, now came to the right spot without any efforts.
After Ji Lili entered the house, journalists held up their cameras and started to film the people inside.
These days there was some shocking news or the other, leaking out of Family Ji and the journalists sensed that something big wasing their way.
Journalists from many newspaper agencies and TV stations were here. They understood that someone had purposely informed them about Ji Lilis return. As a result, they came to the airport and stalked it for a long time before Ji Lili returned and followed her all the way to Ji Bos home.
Many journalists even climbed up on the trees outside the vis wall, trying to get a better filming angle.
Ji Lili didnt disappoint them.
The moment she entered the house, she started to smash everything inside!
Ji Lili knew what Ji Bos home looked like. There were many things there that had been bought and decorated by her personally.
But what greeted her eyes today made her realize that whatever she had bought was now gone and had been reced by something else.
Judging from the style, she understood that Ji Bo couldnt have been the one who bought them. Instead, it must be the hideous woman from Family Yang who brought about the change.
Goddamn it! No other woman was allowed to buy stuff for her cousin.
Yang Muyan was extremely exhausted these days because Jing Yichen had devised various methods to attack her in an increasingly fierce way. Her force was depleting and she was not being able to beat the powerful Family Jing despite her best efforts.
When Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue both died in thest encounter, she was so annoyed. These women had been two of her sharpest weapons!
Also, Ji Bo and Jing Yiran were not under hermand any more. The three of them were having conflicts because of everyones personal interests, making the coboration bing harder and harder to hold onto.
The three of them still had themon goal of bringing down Family Jing, but they all had different thoughts and methods to realise the goal.
Had it not been for Shangguan Nings pregnancy, Jing Yichen would have speedended up the process and removed them all within a few seconds, given how the three enemies were doing at the moment!
Family Ji was also giving a lot of stress to Yang Muyan. Nobody in Family Ji liked her and they were making it amply clear to her.
Yang Muyan had had ate night, so she was not awake yet.
Suddenly, she was woken up by the loud noise that starteding from the other part of the house.
Draping a coat around herself, she discovered what was happening and almost passed out!
The well-organized vi was all in a mess. The furniture, the crockery, the LCD TV, the fridge, which were all bought at a high cost,y smashed into pieces.
And the person who did the work was Ji Lili, who should have been abroad at this moment.
Stop it!
When the hoarse, raging voice arose, Ji Lili was startled.
She turned around and caught sight of the woman who was only d in acy PJ and was gazing at her with a pair of cold eyes.
So, you are Yang Muyan?
Yang Muyan looked at Ji Lili with loath. Refusing to answer her question, she ordered, Clean up my home andpensate for every item that you have destroyed. And then, get out!
She was a ruthless person and didnt show any good face to her.
But Ji Lili was not Ji Bo who was tolerant and cared about the circumstances. She was a princess who had been extolled into the sky since she was little. She was a spoiled child who had received a lot of love and care than Yang Muyan ever got from Family Yang. No one dared talk with her in such amanding tone.
Although she found that this woman looked a bit different from what the rumor said, her voice was terrible. She must definitely be Yang Muyan. It seemed that she was not only ugly but also had a terrible voice.
Ji Lili threw herself upon her. She was going to strangle this woman to death!
Yang Muyan was a strategist, much smarter than Ji Lili but she was not a fighter.
Therefore, Yang Muyan couldnt hold herself up the moment Ji Lili pushed herself at her. She fell onto the ground, instantly.
She sat down on Yang Muyan with a thump, pulled her hair and pped her. Then she stood up and started to give Yang Muyan fierce kicks.
Ji Lili cursed loudly. You foxy girl, how dare you seduce my cousin! Are you tired of living? How dare you live in his house? You hideous woman, how dare you marry my cousin? Divorce him now! I am the one who is going to marry my cousin. If he can marry an ugly woman like you, why cant he marry me?
When the two servants found Yang Muyan getting punched and bruised all over the face and lying on the floor half-dead, they kneeled down next to Ji Lili, caught hold of her legs and refused to release them.
Having vented the anger, Ji Lili snorted and stopped.
But Yang Muyan who was lying on the floor suddenly stood up, picked up a broken piece of the porcin and lunged at Ji Lilis neck.
Blood gushed out of her neck and Ji Lili let out a scream. Had it not been for the two servants holding her legs, she would have copsed on the floor.
Sometimeter, both Ji Lili and Yang Muyan were sent to the hospital.
The journalists outside watched this fight in astonishment. Soon they spread out the live battle situation to the public through TV and Web.
Chapter 466 - Crisis Everywhere
Chapter 466: Crisis Everywhere
The olddy Ji and Ji Minyu didnt know that Ji Lili was back in the country until they read the newspaper.
There were clear pictures published in the newspaper. One of them showed Ji Lili sitting on Yang Muyan whilst pping her hard whilst the other showed Yang Muyan attacking Ji Lilis neck.
The olddy fainted after seeing the pictures.
Ji Minyu also had a heart attack and passed out.
Ji Bo tried his best to suppress all the affairs and arrived at the hospital, where he was told that four of his family members were hospitalized and were in aa.
The hospital asked him to sign off all four critical medical treatments.
Seeing the four notifications, Ji Bo turned paler than the paper in his hands.
He didnt care about Ji Lili and Yang Muyan being ina. He wanted nothing more than to see the two women stay like this, forever. But nothing should happen to his aunt and grandma!
Apart from Ji Bo being a filial man, there were other reasons as well.
Although Ji Minyu was no longer a mayor, there were still many people in favor of her in A City. The olddy also had numerous resources in her hands. The properties of Family Ji which had been umted for generations were all in the control of this mother and daughter duo. If anything happened to them, Ji Bo was not going to get even a penny, and these properties were going to be transferred to Ji Minjue, the heir of Family Ji!
And then, Ji Ling and Ji Jiameng would take advantage of the situation and start to deal with him with even more resistance.
Ji Ling and Ji Jiameng were dumb. They had somehow been enchanted by Jing Yichen and opposed every move he made. The brother and the sister suddenly became close to each other and started regarding him as an enemy.
Ji Bo knew that they were displeased with him for taking over Ji Minjues position as the president but they should not have hated him so much.
The two of them had 30% shares put together, exceeding Ji Bo in this aspect. So no matter what decision he made, they would object all the time.
Ji Bo faced so much stress that it was almost beyond his capability.
Confronted with this new problem, he almost wanted to drop dead as well.
Jing Yichen, on the other hand, was living a peaceful life. As the business of Jingsheng Enterprise increased, the stock price had been steady as well. Ji Bos action caused no reaction and instead, he was having a hard time with his own family.
Ji Lili was indeed a scourge who would kill him some day!
It was quite normal that the olddy of Family Ji had passed out. She was a hot-tempered person. But he didnt expect that she would have such a strong reaction that she would need to be sent to the hospital and be put up in the ICU. The situation didnt look promising.
Ji Minyun had always had a heart problem. Ji Lili had always been her precious little thing, one whom she didnt dare touch or scold. She, naturally, got furious when her precious little daughter was so badly injured. And since her heart couldnt take such pressure, she was in a worse situation than the olddy.
Rtively speaking, Ji Lili and Yang Muyan were slightly better. Ji Lili had lost too much blood whilst Yang Muyan had been beaten badly. Since her physical condition had been rtively bad, she ended up being in aa.
When all the women of the family were in the hospital, how could the journalists let this opportunity pass? They guarded at the gate of the hospital with cameras, and some even dressed up as patients just to get information through hidden cameras.
Family affairs should not be spread out no matter how annoying the people involved were.
But things didnt go as per Ji Bos wish.
The olddy enjoyed the highest position in the family and received many visitors. Ji Minjue and his family were the first ones at the ward.
The four family members shed so many tears as if the olddy had already passed away.
If the olddy really passed away, Ji Minjue would be the happiest person because he would be the sessor that received arge amount of legacy from Family Ji.
Ji Minjue cried and cursed Ji Bo heavily!
With his teeth tightly clenched, Ji Bo stayed silent. There were many journalists hidden in the hospital and some of Jing Yichens men were also surely there. Even the doctors were not trustworthy. So, he didnt want to have an argument with Ji Minjue, here.
Soon, Ji Bos father, Ji Minjun and his mother Bai Ru arrived as well.
The couple looked obviously annoyed when they saw Ji Bo.
Neither of them liked Yang Muyan. When Ji Bo had decided to get married so quickly the couple were not pleased. Now when such a huge incident urred, Family Ji had upied the headlines on all TV screen and newspaper of A City, causing numerous scandals. Most of them were using Ji Bo of being unfilial after being bewitched by the foxydy, doing unreliable things under her influence.
Ji Bo didnt have anywhere to shed his bitterness. Under stress from all aspects, he lost several pounds within a few days.
Luckily, Jing Yiran had not given any trouble to Ji Bo recently and were working tacitly.
Jing Yiran knew that Family Ji should not be stricken down, otherwise he would have no one else to fight against Jing Yichen with!
It was not until the real battle began did Jing Yiran realize the huge gap between Ji Bo and Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen only needed to do one single thing to bring them down!
Ji Lili was called back and it made the situation deteriorate in such a manner already.
But Jing Yiran and Ji Bo didnt know that Jing Yichen wasnt the one to call Ji Lili back. Instead, it was Shangguan Ning who did it. Jing Yichen had not even started to do anything, yet.
Sitting on the sofa at Huang Lihans home, Shangguan Ning was reading the evening newspaper, carefully.
The news of Family Ji was all over the newspapers and websites. Shangguan Ning had not expected that the incident would bring about such excellent results.
Ji Lili, as usual, had not disappointed!
Jing Zhongxiu sat down on the sofa opposite to Shangguan Ning and said with a smile, Ning, I heard from Yichen that you are the hero behind this incident?
Shangguan Ning put down the newspaper and said with a bashful smile, No Dad, I just gave a helping hand. Yichen is the one who carried out the operation. I am not that powerful.
Shangguan Ning knew what she was capable of. Although she had called Ji Lili back, the arrangement of journalists, the news report on the TV stations, websites and newspapers were all Jing Yichens ideas. He was the one who had arranged the turbulence inside Family Jis Enterprise, as well.
He pierced into every small detail due to which Ji Bo was struggling to defend himself.
Huang Lihan came up to them after hearing their conversation. Ning, what are you being humble for? You should definitely im to be the hero of this incident. Trust me, be the hero and exchange it with your dad for some practical benefits!
Chapter 467 - A Fatal Strike (Part One)
Chapter 467: A Fatal Strike (Part One)
The first thing the olddy of Family Ji did, after she woke up was not to check up how her precious granddaughter was faring, but to fire Ji Bo from his position as the president. She also tried to recall all the shares from him and forced him to divorce Yang Muyan!
But Ji Bo agreed with none of them.
Standing by his grandmas bedside, he was wearing a tailor-made suit only donest month. But it had be one sizerger, already. He had lost so much weight during this period.
Ji Bo looked much fiercer after losing so much weight, not so elegant and gentle anymore, and he spoke in a very straightforward way.
Grandma, I am the most suitable candidate for the President. Uncle is too old for the position!
Ji Minjue, who had been taking care of the olddy, almost sprang up and punched Ji Bo on his face.
The olddy didnt like to hear such words. But Ji Bo didnt give her a chance to scold him further. Instead, he continued. My shares are the fruits of my own work and it is impossible for me to give them away. On the contrary, I believe that everyone else in the family should give their shares to me.
The olddy almost died out of rage because of what her grandson said. She had not expected that he would stop listening to her to such an extent and talk about acquiring more shares all the time!
She thought that it was reasonable for her to recall the shares from Ji Bo. She was the senior in the family. She had thought that Ji Bo would be like how he used to be before C obedient and polite.
Also, I will divorce Yang Muyan, but not now. When Family Ji reaches the peak of A City, I will do the needful.
Having said so, Ji Bo left the hospital, ignoring how angry and disappointed his grandma was.
Family Jis Enterprise needed his presence every second in these tough times. He needed to control the situation, otherwise many more employees would continue to resign.
Amidst all this, Chinese New Year arrived in A City.
The surroundings were getting festive and manypanies had shut for holidays. Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen had stopped going to work, as well. Shangguan Ning was resting and Jing Yichen was busy taking care of her.
Jing Yichen caressed Shangguan Nings bulging stomach, lovingly.
We will have one more member in our family this time, next year. Then we can take our son out to burst some firecrackers.
He had not forgotten how happy Shangguan Ning had been when she watched the children setting firecrackers in thepound,st year.
Shangguan Ning was very fond of kids. She was definitely going to be a great mother.
Shangguan Ning smiled happily after hearing what Jing Yichen said. She believed that everything was going to be just fine.
But as she was smiling, she suddenly thought of Zhao Anan who was still missing as well as Mu Qing who was in the UK, seeking her.
Yichen, nothing from Anan yet?
Jing Yichens smile weakened as he said in a low voice, Not yet. This girl must be having fun somewhere. Thats quite normal. Dont worry, she will be fine.
He didnt tell Shangguan Ning the truth, fearing that she would get worried.
That Zhao Anan might have been kidnapped was not told to Shangguan Ning or Zhao Zhao. Jing Yichen was worried that Zhao Zhao would cry herself to death.
It was not yet certain who had taken Zhao Anan and where she was hidden. They didnt even know whether she was alive or dead at this moment. Jing Yichen simply couldnt reveal anything to either of them.
Mu Qing had once said that Yang Muyan could not have caught her. Although Yang Muyan wanted to do something about Zhao Anan, she had been one stepte. Someone else had taken her away already.
Who else could it have been if it was not Yang Muyan?
Jing Yichen had a hunch. He wanted to test it after the Chinese New Year.
If his hunch proved right, Zhao Anan might not be in any fatal danger.
Jing Yichen didnt care if she was suffering some pain right now as long as she was not in mortal danger.
Zhao Anan had sneaked away without telling anybody, making his and Zheng Jings men searching for her everywhere. Many people had sacrificed for her and Mu Qing even abandoned his hospital and home just to look for her.
It was good if Zhao Anan suffered a little, to make her think twice if she wanted to run away again.
The Chinese New Year was a couple of days away and Jing Yichen went to do some shopping with Shangguan Ning in the mall.
The mall was festive and cozy with many visitors flowing in back and forth. Jing Yichen kept Shangguan Ning protected, fearing that someone would bump into her.
Shangguan Ning was wearing a pair of baggy pants and an extrarge top. Since her stomach was showing, the passers-by voluntarily stayed away from her.
People were aware that pregnant women needed extra care. No one dared to get close to Shangguan Ning.
But Jing Yichens attraction was posing to be a problem. Despite a mask on him, he still looked charismatically resplendent.
Many women stared at him and someone even recognized him as the famous President of Jingsheng Enterprise C Jing Yichen.
Luckily Jing Yichen tended to keep a low-profile, so he got rid of the women very fast.
Shangguan Ning pursed her lips when she caught sight of this handsome man with a mask.
It was so unfair! She was pregnant, looking like a whale whilst Jing Yichen was still so appealing as he always was. Right now, there was a huge gap between them.
Jing Yichen couldnt help but smile bitterly as he understood Shangguan Nings look.
He didnt mean to attract those women. He didnt like them and didnt want Shangguan Ning to get jealous of them, either. He was going to be a father soon and didnt want Shangguan Ning to be upset about anything at this moment.
But Shangguan Ning liked the festive ambience in the mall, and wanted toe and take a look around. That was why Jing Yichen was here with her. Otherwise they would have asked the staff to do some shopping for them.
Shangguan Ning got a bit tired after walking around for a bit, so Jing Yichen took her home, immediately.
When they got home, Shangguan Nings feet and calves were slightly swelled up, so Jing Yichen carried her to the bed and massaged them gently for her.
Shangguan Ning fell asleep after getting the massage.
Seeing that she was fast asleep, Jing Yichen covered her with a nket, stood up and walked to the study.
He had many things to deal with, especially those regarding Family Jis Enterprise. The most crucial moment had arrived and one more fatal strike would make the enterprise copsepletely.
Ji Bo had chosen the wrong path. And Jing Yichen had every reason to bring him down.
He had made an obvious deal with Yang Muyan C they wanted to handle Jing Yichen. With Jing Yiran as part of their team, their aim was more than just bringing down Jingsheng. They were aiming for his life!
Chapter 468 - A Fatal Strike (Part Two)
Chapter 468: A Fatal Strike (Part Two)
Many people were destined to spend a turbulent Chinese New Year.
Family Ji, for example.
The capital chain of Family Jis Enterprise had broken down.
The olddy, Ji Minjue and Ji Minyu had taken outrge amounts of capital from the enterprise because of which Family Jis Enterprise was experiencing a cash crunch and many employees failed to get the sry and bonus at the end of the year.
The staff joined forces and collectively sued Family Jis Enterprise.
Under pressure, Ji Bo gave away the position of President and all the shares in his hands.
Without the capital, Family Jis Enterprise would be an empty shell that could not go on functioning. Also, the daily losses could reach hundreds of millions, which was not something Ji Bo or Family Ji could absorb.
Ji Bo did not want his own enterprise to copse so fast. So he agreed to give away everything to keep Family Jis Enterprise functioning properly.
Because of Ji Bos agreement, the capital that had been taken away was put back in by the seniors.
After the staff received the dyed sry and bonus, they recalled thewsuit but they no longer trusted the enterprise.
Also, Family Jis Enterprise was obviously going down and the staff was in a panic. Those who had the ability of switching jobs, had already done so.
Although Ji Minyun had implemented a series of new measures to gain the trust back after he regained his position as president, the effect didnt turn out to be great.
By the end of February, the losses of Family Jis Enterprise reached as much as 70 billion yuan, and was still increasing.
After the Chinese New Year, Jing Yichen had a meeting with Ji Bo.
He suspected that Zhao Anans disappearance was Ji Bos work.
But after a few moments of conversation, it turned out that Ji Bo had no idea of Zhao Anans disappearance.
Ji Bo looked rather distracted. He waspletely confused by what Jing Yichen asked him.
He had thought that Jing Yichen was seeking a coboration with him.
Well, Jing Yichen wouldnt be so kind-hearted!
They were like water and fire. Jing Yichen was already being nice enough not to have killed him.
Jing Yichen would not have cared, agonising and torturing him until he died. But now he had Shangguan Ning, so he was acting carefully and trying not to do anything unnecessary.
Anxious and irritated, Ji Bo found it to be humiliating that he had been defeated before he could even do anything to Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen understood exactly what Ji Bo was thinking. He looked up and said inposure, I can coborate with you.
Ji Bo looked hopeful again. But he said anxiously, What do you want me to do?
Jing Yichen sneered. What else? What I want is my own thing C Jingshengs shares!
Ji Bos hopes dashed and he said instantly, Thats impossible!
It was hisst card, one that couldnt be used easily!
What was more, he had struck a deal with Jing Yiran C The shares of Jingsheng he had, could only be the exchanged for the shares of Family Jis held by Jing Yiran, one vs another.
The deal was made back then because both sides needed to consider the possibility that either of the enterprises could copse one day.
For example, at the moment, when Family Jis Enterprise was still functioning, the stock price was no more than 1/3rd of Jingsheng Enterprises share value. It would be an unreasonable deal if 20% shares of Jingsheng were used to get back 20% shares of Family Jis Enterprise.
If you give back the shares of Jingsheng, you can get my help. Else, you will get nothing in the future.
Ji Bo was indeed in need of help, but Jingshengs shares were the most valuable bargaining chip he had at the moment. He must consider carefully before making a proper decision.
I will have nothing if I hand over the shares! A bitter smile hovered over Ji Bos skinny face.
Not true. Jing Yichen didnt speak loudly, but intensely. If you give me back the shares of Jingsheng, I will help you get back Family Jis Enterprise. No one except for me can reach that goal, not even Yang Muyan.
Ji Bo was slightly moved.
Because he knew that Jing Yichen was right C not even Yang Muyan could achieve that.
No one was allowed to participate in Family Jis Enterprise. With people of Family Jis Enterprise out for her blood, Yang Muyan couldnt do anything at all.
Also, Yang Muyan felt that Ji Bo had lost his value. He could no longer be used to bring down Jingsheng or Family Jing. So she had lost interest in Ji Bo.
Also, because of Ji Lili, Yang Muyan was now on bitter terms with Family Ji. Without any help from Jing Yichen, everyone in Family Ji would want Yang Muyan to die!
Ji Bo had changed after she appeared and became Family Jings enemy, otherwise things wouldnt have been this bad.
Everyone in Family Ji knew that Family Jing was not to be irritated. When Ji Lili was beaten upst year and so much money had to be given away aspensation, Family Ji did nothing but tolerate it. Ji Bo had been tolerant back then but now he was so bold as to want to consume Family Jing. It was nothing but a foolish dream!
Ji Bo must have truly been bewitched by Yang Muyan. He thought that with a fierce woman like Yang Muyan and a traitor, Jing Yiran helping them, Family Jing would copse.
He had overestimated his own people and underestimated his rival.
But it was already toote to regret whatever he had done.
He was in the same boat as Yang Muyan and Jing Yiran. He could fight to the end and maybe he would be able to beat Jingsheng someday, or he would be a hobo, instantly.
Ji Bo had no idea if it was still not toote for him to get off the boat. He was not sure if Jing Yichen would really help him to get back whatever he had lost.
He didnt trust Jing Yichen.
Because if he had been in the position, he would not have forgiven a rival like him.
One thing was sure that he was in an absolute disadvantageous position at the moment.
Ji Bo didnt speak and Jing Yichen didnt urge him, either. He was here to see Ji Bo for Zhao Anan and not to get back the shares. Jing Yichen had mentioned about shares as an offhand remark.
After knowing that Zhao Anan had not been taken by Ji Bo, he lost interest in further conversation.
Jing Yichen was definitely going to take back the shares. He would never allow the shares of Jingsheng to be in the hands of an outsider.
Ji Bo had got one thing right. Jing Yichen would not have forgiven him so easily. Jing Yichen had every reason to kill him, especially when he decided to coborate with someone to set a trap for him and Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning had defended Ji Bo because she thought that Ji Bo had not hurt her but defended her.
But Jing Yichen didnt think so. As long as Ji Bo was involved, he would be destined to die!
Chapter 469 - Fun Stories at Pregnancy Test
Chapter 469: Fun Stories at Pregnancy Test
After the Chinese New Year, Shangguan Ning stopped going to office, altogether.
She was getting bigger and her calves and legs were getting swelled up, making it ufortable for her to walk too much.
Also, theputer, printer and fax machines give out radiation, so Jing Yichen had forbidden her to touch all of those, any more.
Most of the time, Lu kept herpany by talking incessantly but sometimes, staying silent.
Shangguan Ning would take a walk every day. Since she didnt have a mother to guide her, Zhao Zhao called her often and gave her helpful advice.
Zhao Anan was still missing, and Shangguan Ning was feeling uneasy about it.
But every time Zhao Zhao called, she would pretend that everything was fine and console Zhao Zhao at the same time.
Zheng Lun visited Shangguan Ning often and chit chatted with her.
Seeing Shangguan Nings bulging belly, she was full of envy.
On her every visit, Zheng Lun brought some gifts for the child. She was a warm person.
But every time she was here, Shangguan Ning couldnt help but think of Zhao Anan, so did Zheng Lun.
Zheng Lun had also not been told that Zhao Anan might have been taken away, forcibly. All Zheng Jing told her was that Zhao Anan had gone into hiding to stay away from Mu Qing. So Zheng Lun was not that worried because she knew that as long as Zhao Anan got tired of having fun, she would return of her ord.
March passed quickly and soon it was April. Shangguan Ning was in her seventh month of pregnancy.
Jing Yichen apanied Shangguan Ning for a pregnancy test at the hospital.
He was with her throughout the entire process rather than staying outside the examination room.
Mu Xin knew that the couple had an extraordinary rtionship, so after she tried to stop them once and failed, she no longer tried to stop them.
The four-dimensional ultrasound examination clearly showed the baby inside the mothers womb.
Whenever this moment came, Jing Yichen would be extremely attentive.
Mu Xin couldnt help but burst intoughter when she saw the couple looking so nervous.
She had heard Mu Qing talking about Jing Yichen numerous times and as per her understanding, Jing Yichen should have been cold and lethal.
But from what she could see, he was just an ordinary husband and father-to-be who loved his wife and child dearly.
Mu Xin hadnt objected to Mu Qings idea of giving up the hospital to look for Zhao Anan. But she didnt support him fully, either.
Their grandpa had gotten extremely furious about her cousin and her cousins parents were even more furious. They felt that they had raised a boy in vain when he could abandon everything just for the sake of a woman.
Zhao Anan did know how to make trouble!
Mu Xin preferred a steady life just like Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen in front of her. Living a steady life was what happiness meant.
Mu Xin liked Shangguan Ning very much. They had many simrities. Shangguan Ning never made trouble. Instead, she kept pursuing what she wanted with great intent.
She had identally noticed Jing Yichen massaging Shangguan Nings belly, so she said with a smile, Shangguan, Master Jing, the boy is developing well and is very healthy. Also, maybe because Shangguan has drunk the medicinal wine, the boy has obviously turned out much healthier than his peers. He is definitely going to be a very strong boy.
Mu Xin was an expert in this aspect. She had been the OB for numerous mothers and delivered many babies.
One nce at the color ultrasound, she would know how the baby was doing.
Shangguan Nings child was developing exceptionally well. She knew that her grandpas medicinal wine must have done its job. Even she had never tasted the wine ever.
The medicinal wine which grandpa made was mainly for reproduction of cells which enabled dying of aging and increasing the immune system.
Shangguan Ning had been on the wine for half a year now and her physical system had improved tremendously. She had not caught even a cold after she got pregnant. But it was the baby in her belly that got the most benefits because the essence and the nutrients from the mother were mostly absorbed by the baby.
Both Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were delighted to hear what Mu Xin said.
Mu Xin hesitated for a while before saying, Shangguan, because the baby is so well developed, my experience tells me that your due date might be a week or two in advance. If you experience pain in the stomach, dont be nervous ande to the hospital right away. If you dont mind living in the hospital for a while, you cane in one month before the due date.
Shangguan Ning agreed with a smile as she massaged her belly. Sure, I will move in to your hospital when the timees. But you will have to take care of me.
The child was their priority and Shangguan Ning didnt object to living in the hospital for a while, if needed. The conditions at the hospital were very good and the doctors surrounding her gave her a sense of security.
Mu Xin let out a sigh of relief. She had been worried that Shangguan Ning would dislike the smell of disinfectants at the hospital or the sterilized atmosphere.
It seemed that Shangguan Ning could adjust to the environment and be more rational than she had assumed.
That is not a problem. Mu Xin said with a smile, I like taking care of pregnant mothers. That is the greatest perk of my job. I want to give birth to a baby myself, right now!
Amused, Shangguan Ning jabbed at her arms and said, Then get one. If it is a girl, we can be inws!
Mu Xin was in a good mood. When she saw a healthy fetus and an outgoing mother, she tended to get quite cheerful and said with a smile, Then I need to work harder and get a clever girl, or your son wouldin her of being dumb.
Mu Xin was not being modest. She knew that Jing Yichen was extremely intelligent even more than Mu Qing, who was the most intelligent among the entire family in his generation. But whenever grandpa lectured him, he would quote Jing Yichens example.
Their generation were living under the shadow of Jing Yichen!
Although she and her husband were both doctors, and the top OB in the country,pared to a genius demon like Jing Yichen, they were yet far from their goal.
But Shangguan Nings words made Mu Xin think about having a baby. She preferred girls, and so did her husband.
Mu Xin thought that after she took a break from this busy period, she might be ready to get pregnant.
Chapter 470 - Realization Part 1
Chapter 470: Realization Part 1
The stock price of Jis Enterprise kept falling. By March, the enterprise had lost as much as 8 billion yuan. Half of April had just passed when Jis Enterprise was at the verge of copsing.
Staff at Jis Enterprise started to resign one after another. Many of them left because the enterprise was too poor to pay them a sry anymore.
Ji Minjue felt that he had taken over a hot seat.
He started to lose weight and lost 30 kilos in a couple of months.
Previously, Ji Minjue would have been very d if he managed to lose even half a kilo. But after losing so much weight now, Ji Minjue felt no happiness at all.
The capital of the enterprise shrank as tremendously as his body shape.
If the situation continued to go on in this way, Jis Enterprise would onlyst for at most two more months before announcing bankruptcy!
Ji Family contacted everyone who had received benefits from them earlier. They also managed to sell some old properties to gain enough capital to leap over this pit.
What was more, The Ji Family had waved white g towards the Jing Family, hoping to gain some respite from them.
However, Jing Yichen was definitely not going to give Ji Family a helping hand. It was already nice of him not to give them a kick on their backs.
Ji Bo knew that asking Jing Yichen for help was not going to work, unless he was willing to return the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise.
However, there was someone else who might be of some help.
Ji Bo drove back to his own vi.
In the vi, Yang Muyan was busy painting her eyebrows in front of the mirror, as usual.
It seemed that she had nothing to do with the bankruptcy of the Ji Family.
Ji Bo pressed down the anger in his heart, came to her side and said in a straightforward manner. Ji Family needs your help.
Yang Muyan threw a calm look at him, put down the eyebrow pen in her hand and sneered. Now you thought of me? Isnt it true that everyone in your family wants me dead? Your lovely cousin, for example,es to make a scene every now and then, saying that she wants to kill me. What an actress!
Ji Bo looked cold, but gradually, he made himself look gentle as he said in a soft voice, My cousin is very young, and has been spoiled by my aunt. Dont be mad at her. Also, you hit her back, cut her throat because of which she almost died. Both of you should take the responsibility. Do not mix the two matters.
Ji Family is also your shelter. Without this, you couldnt have avoided being killed by the Jing Family. Jing Yichen has eyes out for you and coborating is the only way forward for both of us. You can invest in and get the shares of Ji Family.
Yang Muyan had never nned to leave Ji Family, and what Ji Bo had said was all true. Only they were able to offer her the shelter, being a deeply-rooted family in A City and possessing strength throughout the country. Ji Familys power could not be easily ignored, otherwise Jing Yichen would not have spent so much effort in bringing them down.
As a matter of fact, Jing Yichen had not bothered with Jis Enterprises downfall yet. All the conflicts of Ji Family were just in-fights.
Although it had been Jing Yichen who had caused the in-fight, it had been done in such a smart way that no one was able to find any evidence. Everyone would think that it had been the consequence of the in-fight of the Ji Family rather than a scheme by the Jing Family.
Yang Muyan did not expect that the Ji Family would fall so soon, but she was not offering any help either.
She did not care much about shares of Jis Enterprise.
I can consider investing.
Yang Muyan said nonchntly, reached out for a blusher and dabbed it on her cheeks. Soon, her appearance looked rosy.
Yang Muyan got quite satisfied when she saw the exquisite oval-shaped reflection in the mirror.
She had gotten obsessed by her looks. A touch of disgust shed across his eyes when he saw her narcissism.
But he still replied in a calm voice. What do you want me to do for you to invest in? I can do anything as long as you are willing to invest.
Yang Muyan looked up and then at Ji Bo, Oh? What about taking Ji Lilis life, then?
Ji Bo frowned, looking displeased.
Ji Lili was as annoying as Yang Muyan, yet she was his cousin, the daughter of his aunt after all. She was extremely irritating, but Ji Bo would not want her dead.
Yang Muyan sneered when she saw Ji Bo frowning. You do not want that to happen? Well, that is understandable. Ji Lili is a pretty woman. But I hate pretty women the most in my life and I would be d if all of them died. Do you want me to kill her or do you prefer to do it yourself?
Ji Bo was aware of Yang Muyans cruelty, so he was not easily affected by her vicious words these days.
He did not stay silent for too long, though. So he rejected it, firmly. That is not possible! Ji Lili must not die, otherwise I cant get through my aunt and my grandma. My auntie had a heart attackst time and got hospitalized. And my grandma was in aa for many days.
If they knew that Ji Lili was killed, they would definitely take revenge and care nothing about investment.
Oh, so Ji Lili must not die, then who? I am going to invest hundreds of millions and I should be able to get one life in return, no?
Yang Muyan uncapped a rosy lip gloss and started to paint her lips, facing the mirror.
In a few minutes, she looked even more dazzling. Yang Muyan stared at herself in the mirror with fascination and a long whileter, she turned to look at Ji Bo and said, What about Shangguan Ning? Her death would be a wonderful deal,e to think of it. In this way, Jing Yichen can be struck down and we will definitely win.
This time, Ji Bo turned her down even faster than the previous time. He sounded determined. Impossible! Are you even a human? She is a pregnant woman. And her baby is innocent. Are you so vicious that you want to kill an unborn child?

Yang Muyan was not moved. She ced her hand on her chin as she said softly, I am vicious. How can I not be, if I want to kill everyone in the Jing Family?
She chuckled until tears came out of her eyes. Then she spoke through clenched teeth. I am the only one remaining in the Yang Family. Everyone else in my entire family died. Dont you think that the Jing Family is vicious, too? Dont you think that they deserve to die as well?
Ji Bo burst out. That is only because you broke the rules first! You irritated the Jing Family and you should have known what the consequences would be.
Having said the words, Ji Bo was startled himself, although Yang Muyan showed no reaction.
It was true. He was also well aware of what were the consequences of irritating the Jing Family?
But what had made him want to do it anyway?
He sounded so reasonable when he was giving Yang Muyan the lecture, yet when it came to himself, he had also got confused and made a huge mistake.
He broke into cold sweat at the thought.
The Yang Family was the perfect example, and still he had ignored it.
One after another, he provoked Jing Yichen and the Jing Family. It was already lucky that he was still alive.
Jing Yichen was more brutal than Jing Zhongxiu, who did not even blink when he exterminated the Yang Family. This father and son duo dominated the entire A City. Jing Yichen was a cruel killer who had assassinated numerous people over the years.
He had also killed Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue without any hesitation.
Ji Bo still remembered the horrifying moment clearly.
When Jing Yichen had pointed the gun at Shangguan Rouxue, he showed no expression as if it was not a woman, but a piece of wood in front of him.
After he killed her, he had instantly turned towards the second one, Ji Bo himself.
He had never been so close to death and did not even have any time to register anything before the bullet went through his chest.
Ji Bo still felt his body shiver when that moment came into his mind.
Yang Muyans hoarse voice echoed in his ears.
....the baby in Shangguan Nings belly will have Jings family name. You better kill him now, in case he grows into another Jing Yichen. Else, it will take extra effort for me to kill himter. Dealing with one Jing Yichen has already tired me out and I would rather run away if I have to deal with one more man like that.
Ji Bo looked at Yang Muyan who was presenting the n and suddenly realized something.
Why must he coborate with Yang Muyan?
Why must he fight against Jing Yichen?
Didnt he really have any other choice apart from killing a weak pregnant woman?
Anyone who fought against Jing Yichen died one after another. Was he going to be the next?
People were greedy. When they got one yuan, they would want to get ten, hundred, thousand or ten thousand yuan...
Ji Bo had been ovee with greed.
Ji Bo let out a sigh of regret inside his heart.
...So, which one do you choose to kill? Since killing Shangguan Ning is a much harder task, and it will be two lives, I will offer you 200 million yuan. If you kill Ji Lili, I will give you 100 million yuan. It is a reasonable deal. Do not hesitate! Both of them have to die anyway. If you do the job, they can suffer a little less. If I am the killer, they might die painfully.
Yang Muyans icy cold voice seemed toe from hell, yet Ji Bo felt no longer scared.
He stood up slowly and straightened his back.
As the morning sun of the early spring shone upon Ji Bos face, he could see a small patch of shadow behind him.
The sunlight brought warmth and pierced into Ji Bos thin skin, bringing him unprecedented warmth.
He said lightly, Alright, I will ept the deal, but I do have to consider which one to kill. After all, both of them are important and neither of them can die so easily.
Yang Muyan did not expect that Ji Bo would ept the offer so fast. Startled, she started tough loudly.
Herughter was as horrible as the croaking of a crow. For the first time, however, Ji Bo did not frown.
After she was doneughing, Yang Muyan looked at Ji Bo with appreciation. Didnt expect that you would grow up so fast that you can even contemte killing your cousin and your beloved woman. You are definitely going to be sessful in the future. This is what men should be like. Only by being cruel can one seed!
Ji Bo took a deep look at her, turned around and strode out of the vi.
Ji Bo went straight back to the five-star hotel where he was staying at the moment.
He opened the door, and walked towards a safe. Opening it, he pulled out the document which was kept there.
Ji Bo took a deep breath, put it into his ck briefcase and walked out of the hotel.
In the car, he took out the cell phone and called Jing Yichen.
The call did not get through until a long whileter, and Ji Bo could hear Shangguan Ningsughing voice clearly from the other side of the phone. Yichen, the baby is kicking me again. He is so naughty!
The gentle and beautiful voice pierced into Ji Bos heart through the cell phone.
Ji Bos heart shivered.
She was happy. Maybe, only Jing Yichen was able to give her that kind of happiness.
Her voice and her beauty did not belong to him, but Ji Bo was not jealous at that moment. As long as Shangguan Ning was living a happy life, he would feel that the woman he once loved, was worth loving and he had not chosen wrong.
His decision was right!
He was not going to kill Shangguan Ning.
It seemed that a long year had passed or maybe just one short moment. Ji Bo could tell that Shangguan Nings voice was fading away and soon Jing Yichens cold voice arose from the phone. President Ji.
Although Ji Bo was no longer the president of Jis Enterprise or held any position in thepany, Jing Yichen still addressed him by the old title rather than by his name.
Ji Bo felt that his rival had shown him respect. So he spoke in a straightforward manner and said, Master Jing, I need to meet you. I have something for you. Also, I would like to tell you that I reced the musk which Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue brought with them to your vi. Lets meet at the old ce. I will wait for you.
Ji Bo could feel that Jing Yichen was startled on the other side of the phone and knew in that moment that he had made the right decision.
His admiration and his lingering love towards Shangguan Ning had saved him.
Or maybe, it was going to save his entire family!
Without hesitation, Jing Yichen said with an equally cold and calm voice, Okay.
Chapter 472 - Helper Part 1
Chapter 472: Helper Part 1
In the tea house, the teas fragrance filled up the room, making people feel rxed and calm.
Usually, Ji Bo loved drinking tea because the fresh and elegant feeling it gave him, made him think of... Shangguan Ning.
But at this moment, he was not at all in a mood to drink any tea.
He poured himself a cup of Biluochun and swallowed it down, losing his air as a gentleman from a noble family. If someone had drunk tea this way in front of him, Ji Bo would have looked down on that person and considered him as someone uncouth and vulgar.
He had been waiting for Jing Yichen for more than one hour in the tea house but he was nowhere to be seen.
It was impossible for Ji Bo not to be anxious.
His wait had him thirsty and annoyed.
Two hourster, the door opened and Jing Yichen entered. He looked noble and indifferent, as usual.
Ji Bo stood up instantly. Instead of showing his usual pride, he said with courtesy, Master Jing, you are finally here!
The way he was behaving today differed slightly from his normal decorum.
Jing Yichen noticed the change too. But he showed no reaction. It was impossible to guess his thoughts.
What does President Ji have to talk to me about?
Jing Yichen had actually guessed what Ji Bo was about to do, but he did not point it out and stared at Ji Bo with a calm expression. What he had not understood was why Ji Bo would suddenly change his attitude.
Without saying anything, Ji Bo took out the papers from his briefcase and gave them to him.
If he wanted Jing Yichens help, or to be more precise, if he wanted to depend on Jing Yichen, then he had to do this.
Ji Bo had been in a high position for a long time and had never bent down in front of anybody. But he knew that the sess of a matter was determined by the attitude and triviality.
He decided to meet Jing Yichen because he was sure that his action would move him. And he also realised that the difference between him and Jing Yichen was far from being just ranked number one and two on some business magazine list.
Although he always ended up being furious after dealing with Jing Yichen, he had full faith in Jing Yichens ability. He had never admired anyone since he was young, yet even when they were the worst enemies, he still thought that Jing Yichen was someone worth trusting.
Jing Yichen would never have guessed that one of the key reasons why Ji Bo changed his attitude was because he hero worshipped him!
As he was handing over the papers to him, Ji Bo said in a serious tone, Master Jing, I, together with Family Ji and Jis Enterprise would like to seek Family Jings shelter. Please ept us!
Jing Yichen took the paper and looked at it.
Just as he had guessed, it was the share transfer certificate. Ji Bo had just given him back the 20% shares of Jingsheng Enterprise.
In addition, what Ji Bo said, startled Jing Yichen.
Did he change his mind and attitude so fast because he was up to something with Yang Muyan again?
But the share certificate was authentic, and that meant that the shares had reallye back to Family Jing again.
Jing Yichens heart eased out but he kept his face neutral. He asked in an unfeeling tone. So, you mean to say that you are representing the entire Family Ji?
Ji Bo stiffened, but soon recovered.
He had been tormented by Jing Yichen numerous times and this was nothing.
Jing Yichen was sitting opposite Ji Bo who, however, was standing. He was trying to show his sincerity and humility.
I understand that you may be confused about me suddenly wanting to seek refuge with you. I can not speak for the entire family, but if Master Jing could offer some help, I would be the spokesman for Family Ji within a years time.
Ji Bo sounded determined.
You want me to help you take control of Family Ji?
Jing Yichen raised his eyebrows slightly.
Ji Bo shook his head and said, No, I am confident enough to take that back myself. What I need is help from you so as to get Ji Enterprise out of trouble right now.
He nced at Jing Yichens expression, which had not changed since the moment he entered the room. It was impossible to tell what he was feeling at this moment.
I made some mistakes before, but Master Jing, you are a broad-minded person, and hopefully you will not hold on to it...
Before he finished speaking the words, Jing Yichen interrupted him and said, No, you are wrong. I am a narrow-minded person who always remembers the past. I believe that you are well aware of this trait of mine.
Ji Bo looked slightly embarrassed, but he continued from where he had left off. Alright then, Master Jing, you can punish me in whichever way you want. I had be greedy and plotted against you with the intention to harm you. Whatever I receive will be reasonable! Ibined forces with Yang Muyan because I wanted to make use of her ideas to cause trouble to Family Jing, and take advantage of the chaos in the process.
As he spoke, emotions swelled up in his heart. In just a couple of months, he had fallen down into hell from heaven. Now he was not only hounded by journalists but also had been ostracised by his own parents. He had even annoyed the Old Lady of the Ji Family and was not left with even a single position in Jis Enterprise after so many years of effort.
The people who used to suck up to him earlier were now going out of their way, just to avoid him!
They badmouthed him behind his back, and none of them had stepped up to defend him.
I have paid greatly for what I have done and learnt a befitting lesson too. What made me change my perspective was none other than Yang Muyan who is living in my house, currently.
It was not until today that I realized C if the Yang Family had not offended the Jing Family before, Jing Family would not have hurt them. Yang Muyan is in the current state because she deserves it. Siding with her has only made me cruel and put me on the path to hell.
Ji Bo showed a bitter smile when he said these words.
I admit that I can not beat you, and Family Ji is not a match against the Family Jing. My family were probably better aware of this point than me. When they heard about Yang Muyans real identity, they only had one expression, that of horror! They were all scared that because of Yang Muyan, Family Ji would be Family Jings worst enemy.
Although the Jing Family and The Ji Family have been inpetition for years, both were always engaged in a fair game.
It was Ji Bo who turned them into deceitful opponents.
Chapter 473 - Helper Part 2
Chapter 473: Helper Part 2
It was the first time for Jing Yichen to show a slightly astonished expression since he came into the room.
He had not expected that Ji Bo could be so honest and blunt.
Usually, the face of a family was more important than anything else. When Ji Bo talked about Ji Familys fear towards the Jing Family, people would look down at the Ji Family if this went out.
Although it was a fact, few were brave enough to admit it.
Jing Yichen would have never imagined that Ji Bo would say something like this because he was a cautious gentleman who would rather suffer than lose face.
But his sincerity changed his impression on Jing Yichen.
It was true that some people grew up in adversity.
Ji Bo had grown into apletely different person in a matter of a few days.
But soon Jing Yichen turned cold and asked in an indifferent voice. How can I trust you?
Ji Bo let out a small sigh of relief in heart, after hearing what he said.
He knew that if Jing Yichen was speaking in this way, he had approved of his proposal and what he needed most was trust at the stage.
Leave Yang Muyan and Jing Yiran to me. I will report to you about their n. But I only have one request at the moment. Now I have returned the shares to you, you must not touch Jis Enterprise for one month. You can help Family Ji formally when you trust me fully. One month would be enough for me to gain your trust.
Despite Ji Bos determined words, Jing Yichen disyed no reaction.
He picked up the share certificate that was worth tens of billions, stood up and walked out of the room.
When he reached the door, he said in a calm voice, For the time being, I will follow the coboration.
That basically meant that he had just promised not to ruin Family Ji.
Ji Bo felt instantly relieved and the heavy load on his chest suddenly disappeared too.
Could it have been because he had found apetent helper?
Ji Bo had not had a good meal for days. But now, he suddenly felt very hungry.
He walked out of the tea house, entered a noodle restaurant and ordered a big bowl of beef noodles. Without waiting for it to cool down, he stuffed the food into his stomach at a fast speed.
Gaining back the shares without much effort absolutely delighted Jing Yichen. After he returned home, he decided to take Shangguan Ning out for sightseeing.
Shangguan Ning had already heard the story from him. She was a bit surprised after hearing that Ji Bo wanted to seek refuge with Jing Yichen, but actually, she was quite happy too.
She had always believed that Ji Bo was not a bad man.
Ji Bo does have a long-term perspective. He knows when to give up and when to go on. Smart man!
Shangguan Ning praised him.
But Jing Yichen, who was driving around, sounded displeased. You dare to speak so highly of him?
That sounded like a dangerous question!
Shangguan Ning took hold of Jing Yichens arm and said to him lovingly, No way, I only speak highly of my husband!
This single sentence made Jing Yichen happy. He even showed a small smile.
Shangguan Ning pped her forehead and could not help but think that this man was such a child, innocent and gullible.
She smiled and wondered if the baby would also be innocent and gullible, just like his father.
The early spring wind was quite chilly. Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning took a walk outside for only a few moments before getting back in the car.
They did not return home, but went to Huang Lihans, instead.
Jing Zhongxiu and Huang Lihan had gone fishing, and had asked these two to join them for dinner.
On the way there, Jing Yichen called Jing Tianyuan and told him about the regained shares.
Jing Tianyuan was very d. His grandson was getting more and more capable. He had gained back the shares without spending a cent. He felt very gratified.
Jing Yichen, however, said calmly, Grandpa, dont tell the Old Lady yet. Jing Yiran must not get to know about it right now.
If Mo Lan knew about the regained shares, she would definitely inform Jing Yiran, instantly and would ask for Jing Yiran to be brought back to Family Jing.
Ji Bo hade to him privately. If Jing Yiran found out that Ji Bo had given back the shares to Jing Yichen, he would suspect Ji Bo.
Jing Tianyuan knew how Mo Lan favored Jing Yiran, so he replied in an angry tone, Of course I know that, little boy. You are capable because your father is a good teacher and your father is capable because I am a good teacher!
Jing Yichen drove the car to Huang Lihans vi soon after.
When they arrived there, arguing voices greeted them.
My fish is the biggest! This is going to be served to Ning. You must notpete with me. She is pregnant with my grandson and needs the best food.
Jing, can you be less pompous? I got this fish. Why has it be yours? You have taken all the credit. How will I show off in front of my girl?
Huang Lihan was not pleased about Shangguan Ning calling Jing Zhongxiu Dad, so he kept calling Shangguan Ning his girl, reminding Jing Zhongxiu that Shangguan Ning was his niece, first.
That is only because you wanted to take the biggest fish for yourself. I want to keep it for Ning!
Of course I would share this with Ning! Why would I wait until you remind me?
...
They were still arguing when Shangguan Ning could not help but burst intoughter. She greeted them one after the other.
The two of them turned to look at her and stopped arguing when they saw hering towards them with a bulging belly. Instantly, they looked gentle and mild.
Oh you are here early today, Ning! Watch out, dont bump into anything.
Huang Lihan continued, Spring is not that warm yet, Yichen, dont let Ning freeze. Come and take a seat, I will get the fish soup to get your stomach warmed.
Jing Yichen noticed that they both pushed him away and helped Shangguan Ning take the seat holding her arms, as if he were just an extra person around.
It was still reasonable if uncle treated him in this way, after he was Nings family. But even Jing Zhongxiu, his own father, was trying to push him away too!
Shangguan Ning was born to be liked by the elder people in the family, be it from the Jing Family or the Zhao Family. Even Mu Wensheng, who was known for his terrible temper, favoured Shangguan Ning.
Why were they treating her with love and him with indifference?
Chapter 474 - The Clue
Chapter 474: The Clue
There was still sometime before the food was served, so Jing Yichen followed Jing Zhongxiu to the study to discuss things. He took this opportunity and told Jing Zhongxiu about the shares.
Huang Lihan and Shangguan Ning were left alone in the living room, talking with each other.
Huang Lihan had witnessed his wife giving birth to the baby and also his sister Huang Liyu who had given birth to her. He was quite familiar with childbirth.
When Huang Liyu gave birth to Shangguan Ning, Shangguan Zheng did not keep aapny Huang Liyu. Instead, it had been Huang Lihan, her brother, who was with her during the entire process.
He was also the first person who held Shangguan Ning in his arms apart from the medical team.
Childbirth was definitely a tough thing for a woman. Huang Lihan had been quite concerned about his sister back then and now he was worried about Shangguan Ning.
Luckily, Jing Yichen was a reliable man, unlike Shangguan Zheng who did not even care about his wifes delivery and had gone to attend a banquet with his boss just to climb one step higher.
Huang Liyu passed away early, so Shangguan Ning neither had a mother nor a mother-inw to guide her. Even the olddy of the Jing Family was not reliable. So Shangguan Ning had not learnt anything from an elder female after she got pregnant. Huang Lihan could only share whatever little he knew about childbirth.
Luckily, the modern medical technology was very advanced and no major danger existed apart from the pain. That made Huang Lihan feel less worried.
When Shangguan Ning was sitting next to him, he wanted to pat his nieces head like he used to do in her childhood, but he suddenly realized that this little girl was now going to be a mother, so his hand froze in midair.
Huang Lihan withdrew his hand calmly and inquired about her physical condition as well as the development of the baby. He kept reminding her of the important things that she had to watch out for.
He was a talkative person and kept nagging out of concern. But Shangguan Ning did not feel impatient at all.
Uncle was the only person who would nag because he cared deeply about her.
She liked talking with her uncle because all through her childhood, he had been like a father who offered her warmth and protection and made her life better.
While the uncle and the niece were talking, Jing Yichen showed Jing Zhongxiu the contract which he had just received.
After hearing the entire story, Jing Zhongxiu also got quite surprised by Ji Bos sudden change of heart.
But he trusted his sons judgement and believed that Ji Bo was really seeking refuge with Family Jing .
Ji Family was a capable family and with their support, Family Jing was definitely going to flourish more.
He gave the contract back to Jing Yichen and showed a smile on his serious face. Since you have got the shares back, then those belong to you. I dont need them. You can give some to my grandson when he is born.
Jing Yichen did not reject the proposal. He epted it and replied calmly, Okay!
Entire Jingsheng Enterprise would be Jing Yichens sooner orter. It did not matter when the shares were given to him.
After Jing Zhongxiu returned the certificate to Jing Yichen, he turned around and grabbed a kraft-paper folder and gave it to Jing Yichen.
These are the documents regarding the incident eleven years ago. I have checked everyone in the list and all of them are rted to Tang Yun. They are not a weak force and belong to the Mafia. You eliminated arge number of them eleven years ago and many have faded away with time. Their camp is based in the US.
Jing Yichen turned a bit pale after hearing this. He did not want to recall what had happened in the past because the memories were too distressing.
Jing Zhongxiu could tell that the past had cast a deep shadow upon his son, judging from his look.
He paused for a second before continuing. It must have been a conspiracy back then and the culprit aimed at Family Jing. The main source must have been buried a long time ago. You can look into it yourself. However, Family Jing did have some problems with a Family Tang who betrayed us at that time. So it might have caused a terrible rtionship between the two. It was just a small family and we did not exterminate all of them or pay much attention to it. If you had not talked about Tang Yun, I would not have been reminded of that family at all.
Jing Yichen still looked pale, but managed to calm himself down.
It is fine. With the clues here, I will be able to find out the truth. Family Tang might have been a small family back then, but now it seems to have be the king of underground gangs, and is quite strong.
Tang Yun would not have been so vicious had she not been rted to the mafia. She was not very civilized and didnt seem to have received proper education.
She was not that smart but always thought highly of herself. That meant that she must have been spoiled! But she was able to ovee strong hallucinogens and fierce interrogation, so it also meant that she was a well-trained person.
The people behind her sent Tang Yun to approach him and did not even bother to change her name. What an arrogant gangster!
His enemy was going to pay double the price for the torment he suffered eleven years ago!
Tang Yun had been killed by him. Had it been possible, Jing Yichen would not have killed her. Instead, he would have tormented her so much that she would have received a painful, slow death.
Some people were wandering around Landscape Compound these days and Tiger and his men had noticed it already. But it was still unclear who those people were. Apparently, they did not belong to Yang Muyan.
Yang Muyans men were always hitmen hired at a high price, cruel and unrestrained. But the people who had appeared here were skilled and well-organized.
Jing Yichen suddenly realized that those must be the men belonging to Tang Yuns camp.
They must have heard about Tang Yuns death, so they came to figure out the truth.
Jing Yichen was not sure of the real reason why Tang Yun had approached him. But it was a big mistake to have sent her as the bait. Anyone else who was more discreet and smarter would have managed to hook Jing Yichen.
Tang Yun was brainless, impulsive and indiscreet. She could mess up a perfect n.
Whether or not Tang Yun really liked him was not Jing Yichens concern. He never cared about it, not in the past, not now.
He was a man who always took revenge. If someone tried to destroy him, he was definitely going to get even with that person.
When Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen walked out of the study, Jing Yichens face had already returned back to its normal expression. He lookedpletely fine.
Jing Yichen was always calm facing Shangguan Ning. He would not want her to know about the troublesome matters which may worry her, unnecessarily.
Shangguan Ning was pregnant and too much killing would be bad for the child. Although Jing Yichen did not quite believe in this kind of superstition, he would rather be safe than sorry.
Chapter 475 - Information Leak
Chapter 475: Information Leak
The Ji Family seemed to be precariously ced currently and was on the verge of copsing.
That worried Jing Yiran a great deal.
If Family Ji fell and Jis Enterprise announced bankruptcy, then the shares of Jis Enterprise which he held would be worthless.
He had staked a great deal on this gamble, and now he felt that it was not going to payoff.
The shares of Jingsheng Enterprise were worth a lot of money and if Ji Bo did not return the shares to him, then it would be the worst deal for him.
Jing Yiran was thinking about how to get the shares back, but that was not the key point at the moment.
What mattered more was how to get rid of Jing Yichen!
If Family Ji fell, then he would lose a very strong support. He hade to Ji Bo only because he thought that the family was powerful enough to help him fight Jing Yichen!
He had to do something before Family Ji fell.
Yang Muyan had the same idea as Jing Yiran.
She also felt that the Ji Family of the present day could not guarantee her security. Ji Lili was annoying and deserved to die, yet she could not do anything about her at the moment. Otherwise Family Ji would kill her before Jing Yichen did.
She would not have been in a safe position had it not been therge amount of capital she had in her pocket, which could be useful for the Ji Family under current circumstances.
They spoke with each other over the phone and decided to meet to make a n.
When Ji Bo reached Yang Muyans ce, he saw them sitting in the living room, whispering something to each other.
Ji Bo could guess that they were up to no good without even listening to what they were talking about.
Jing Yiran and Yang Muyan looked up at him and nodded. Jing Yiran said to Ji Bo, We have a n and we need your help!
What n? What help?
We n to get all the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise so Jing Yichen can be broke before we kill him.
Jing Yiran made it sound so easy, yet Ji Bo felt that he had received a blow.
Ji Bo frowned without showing much and asked, How are you going to do it?
Robbing Jing Yichen would not work, because that meant getting one killed.
After Jing Yiran told him about the general n, Ji Bo felt cold sweat trickling down his neck.
He made an excuse to visit the bathroom and made a call to Jing Yichen, immediately. Master Jing, make sure that Shangguan Ning does not step outside home in the following days. Jing Yiran and Yang Muyan are nning to kidnap her to threaten you to give up shares of Jingsheng Enterprise. Keep her guarded and make sure she doesnt go out, no matter who asks her to!
Ji Bo was truly anxious.
He was anxious, not only because he had coborated with Jing Yichen, but also because deep inside him, he did not want anything bad to happen to Shangguan Ning.
When he was on the phone with Jing Yichen, he could hear Shangguan Nings happy chatter behind. He hoped that Shangguan Ning could give birth to the baby smoothly and be a happy mother.
If she was kidnapped, those kidnappers would not care if she was pregnant and would definitely harm her.
Yang Muyan had mentioned that she had already found the kidnappers, and they were very fierce.
She wanted Shangguan Ning to have a miscarriage and had arge amount of musk ready for Shangguan Ning when she sent Tang Yun and Shangguan Rouxue thest time round.
If he had not discovered it in time, the consequences would have gone beyond imagination.
Ji Bo did not have much hope about Shangguan Ning. He was well aware that Shangguan Ning had never loved him in that way. Now, all he wanted was that she could live a steady life.
He had been with many women, and Shangguan Ning was definitely not the most beautiful one amongst them, yet she was the only one who could easily grip ones heart.
Ji Bo sounded anxious and concerned, and that made Jing Yichen slightly displeased on the other side of the phone. But since it was an important matter, he did not let his emotion show. Instead, he said calmly, Alright, I understand.
Actually, Jing Yichen had turned down almost all meetings and even Jing Zhongxiu showed up to help him with the affairs at Jingsheng Enterprise. He had put all of his focus on Shangguan Ning and kept herpany most of the day strolling, reading and chatting.
Jing Yichen felt his heart skip a beat when Ji Bo reminded him of this matter.
Shangguan Ning was feeling her belly with gentleness and sorting the newly-bought clothes for the baby. Jing Yichen suddenly felt hatred for Jing Yiran and Yang Muyan increased to a higher degree.
Yang Muyans life did not matter much, even if it meant that he had to be Ji Familys worst enemy.
But what about Jing Yiran?
He was under Mo Lans protection and was his half brother. However huge a mistake hemited, he could not be killed.
Jing Yichen looked cold.
He regretted that he had made the promise to Jing Zhongxiu not to kill Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran would always be an unsteady factor as long as he was alive.
It was not going to work in the long term if he had to keep an eye out for Jing Yiran day and night and find ways to deal with new potential danger every time.
Shangguan Ning turned around and saw the expression on Jing Yichens face. She stood up and approached him. With her slender fingers, she massaged his well-trimmed face.
What is going on? Who is in trouble again?
Jing Yichen gradually became gentler.
He extended his arms to hold Shangguan Nings waist and said, Ning, dont go anywhere in theing days, dont answer to anyones invitation, not even Zheng Luns.
Jing Yichen did not mean to point out Zheng Lun, but because Shangguan Ning had been in the most frequent contact with her. Sometimes, Shangguan Ning visited her at the Zheng residence, too.
Jing Yichen was worried that Yang Muyan would make use of this opportunity, so he asked her not to go out even if Zheng Lun asked.
Shangguan Ning got slightly startled when she heard Jing Yichens words. But she soon replied calmly. Okay, I wont go out. I will stay at home with my baby. I am gettingzier andzier these days. The baby has grown so much and he makes me tired even when I walk. I wont go out even if you dont tell me to.
Jing Yichen felt his heart ripping away. He felt very guilty that he had not been able to offer a steady and safe environment for his wife and child.
He remembered that although Jing Zhongxiu was extremely strict towards him, yet few enemies sought revenge upon him. Apparently, Jing Zhongxiu had removed all the potential danger around his son.
Jing Yichen felt very guilty that he had not removed the danger around Shangguan Ning yet, and felt that he was not a qualified husband.
Right now, it was Shangguan Ning who was consoling him and saying that she herself would not want to go out.
Jing Yichen understood her well. She did not like noise and preferred a quiet environment. But that did not mean that she liked staying at home every day.
She liked to get together with her friends, talk and joke with them.
Jing Yichen held Shangguan Ning in his arms and made a decision.
Those who nned to harm his wife would not live for much longer.
He would tolerate all consequences.
Except for losing Shangguan Ning.
Chapter 476
Chapter 476: Crisis Part One
Future was never predictable.
Although Jing Yichen had kept Shangguan Ning well guarded and she turned down Zheng Luns invitation and didnt even respond to any staff queries from Liyu Science and Technology, the ident still happened.
When Jing Yichen finished the matters at thepany and returned home, he sensed that something was wrong.
He could not feel Shangguan Nings presence.
Usually, she would throw herself at him the moment he returned home and rub herself against his arms, showing how pleased she was and how much she had missed him.
Jing Yichen did not even have to take a look around to be sure that Shangguan Ning was not there.
He was not sure why he was so certain, but he knew that she was missing.
Where was she?
Jing Yichen felt his blood turn ice cold!
He had been away just for two hours and Jing Yiran and Yang Muyan had taken advantage of his absence already?
Since when did they be so capable?!
What was more, with so many people guarding the Landscape Compound, it was impossible that Shangguan Ning was not noticed if she went out.
At this moment, the phone in Jing Yichens pocket vibrated and the caller was Ji Bo.
Jing Yichen felt a trickle of fear. He instantly picked up the phone and asked in an urgent and lethal voice, Where is Ning?!
Ji Bo sounded panicky and hoarse on the other side of the phone, Master Jing, hurry up and go to the Cross-Sea Bridge. Take your guns and men!
Ji Bo sounded so anxious that Jing Yichens heart fell into the ravine.
Without saying anything more, he hung up and went outside. He ordered Tiger to follow him and then went up to the rooftop.
Tiger had no idea what had happened. It was not until Jing Yichen called and gave him the order did he realize that something had happened to Shangguan Ning.
Tiger got so furious that he almost grinded his teeth. He had just gone to deal with some business with Jing Yichen today and the Lady went missing. These enemies were simply too troublesome.
What about Lu?!
Hadnt Lu always been with Lady?
Why was she missing too?
Could it have been possible that the enemy was so fierce that even Lu could not beat them?!
Furious and angry, Tiger heard Jing Yichen making numerous calls calmly.
He had turned pale and already had sweat drops trickling down his forehead. He was at the verge of bing crazy, but was still trying hard to stay calm.
Yu, get the helicopters to the Cross-Sea Bridge, and bring the medical team! Team 2, go to the Mu Family directly and wait for my order, be sure to check that Grandpa Mu is at home. Team 3,e to Landscape Compound and pick me up!
Hawk, arrange the best seanes ande to Cross-Sea Bridge and wait for my order!
Aaron, bring everyone and follow the seanes to Cross-Sea Bridge to wait for the order. No firing unless I say so!
Zheng Jing, call your best snipers. Ning has been taken to Cross-Sea Bridge by Jing Yiran. Take the helicopters, driving will slow you down!
There had not been any state-of-the-art technology like helicopters at the police station of A City earlier, but Jing Zhongxiu had given one to Zheng Jings father, Zheng Guochang whilst another was given to him by Jing Yichen. Since Zheng Guochang did not have any use for helicopters, he gave them to the team.
The Jing Family had also provided the police team with a great many high-end technologies and worlds leading equipment. The rtionship between the two families was quite good, so the entire police team would spare no efforts to help Family Jing whenever something happened.
Therefore, many people said that the police team of A City actually belonged to the Jing Family, yet no oneined about it. Instead, they expressed their gratitude because with the most advanced facilities and fastest transportation tools avable, the policing level of A City had improved tremendously and the rate of case solving topped the domestic rank, three years in a row. Due to the lowest crime rate of A City, it had been hailed as one of the safest ces in the entire country.
After Jing Yichen sent the order one after another, he felt less anxious.
Tiger, however, got startled. Master had gathered up all the forces!
Helicopters were only used by the Jing Family for emergencies, so they were always avable and ready for take off whenever the order was received.
But it was not a frequent thing that all three teams of helicopters would be used in A City, unless something tremendous had happened.
No one understood what had urred, but Jing Yichen had put forward the order. They started to fly towards the destination at a fast speed.
Cross-Sea Bridge was the only bridge that connected the isles of A City and F City. If it had not been for the Cross-Sea Bridge, the road to F City from A City would take the entire day but now only one and half an hour were needed if the bridge was used.
The Landscape Compound was located next to the sea as well, but it was far from Cross-Sea Bridge as they were located in the opposite direction.
Soon, Team 3 arrived at Landscape Compound, and Jing Yichen and Tiger boarded the ne that took them all the way to Cross-Sea Bridge.
Jing Yiran received Jing Yirans call in the helicopter.
When Jing Yichen saw the caller on screen, he tried hard to press down the fury, picked up the phone and pretended as if he knew nothing. What the hell do you want from me right now?
He sounded distant and full of impatience.
He could not show any urgency, otherwise Ji Bo would be exposed. If Ji Bo had not informed him ahead of time, he would have lost a lot of precious time.
Jing Yiran sounded frivolous from the other side of the phone.
Elder Master, are you busy somewhere?
If you want to die, I can fulfill your wish. Come and speak with me if you dare!
Hahaha! The crazyughter of Jing Yiran arose from the phone. After he was doneughing, he said leisurely, Something of yours is missing, Jing Yichen. Dont you want to know what is missing?
What Jing Yichen wanted to know at the moment was how Shangguan Ning was doing. He had lost all the patience to deal with Jing Yiran. He bellowed, Just spill it!
Hahaha, I thought that you were a know-it-all man, but it seems that you are not god after all and there are things you have no idea of. Jing Yichen, arent you capable? Why cant you notice that your wife is missing?
Jing Yichen did not have to pretend to be furious, any more. He bellowed furiously, Where is Ning?!
Chapter 477 - Crisis Part Two
Chapter 477: Crisis Part Two
Jing Yiran could hear the gnashing sound of Jing Yichens teeth.
He was not scared. Instead, he felt extremely pleased.
Jing Yiran would get very pleased and proud whenever he was able to annoy Jing Yichen.
He had no ns to tell Jing Yichen about Shangguan Nings location that soon. He wanted to torment Jing Yichen a little bit longer!
Jing Yichen, you are not being polite. Is that any way to beg? I am not happy about the tone in which you are speaking with me. If I am not d, I may make Shangguan Ning suffer!
Jing Yichen felt his veins popping on the forehead when he heard Jing Yirans words.
Oh yes! Jing Yiran tried to make the situation worse by stimting Jing Yichen. Sister-inw cant be experiencing easy time being pregnant, right? I heard that my nephew is already as big as seven months old. Oh man, I am not sure if this baby could still survive? You must not me me for his death, but her for her carelessness.
Jing Yichen felt that his heart had been ripped away and the pain suffocated him so much that he could barely breathe.
But within a few seconds, he pressed down all his emotion and for the first time in his life, he bent down to Jing Yiran. Dont cause any trouble to Ning, she is pregnant. Juste to me if you need anything. Please! You can do anything you want, but dont hurt her and my son. They are innocent, please tell me where Ning is now.
Jing Yichens words spoken in such a tone astonished Jing Yiran.
He had never heard Jing Yichen talk to him in this way.
Jing Yichen was as proud as a king of an empire and had always been distant and noble. He had never begged anyone before!
Could Shangguan Ning be so important to him that he would give up his own dignity.
This was not Jing Yichen. It was impossible that he could be so subservient.
Jing Yiran suddenly said, Who on earth is this? You cant be Jing Yichen!
Jing Yichen pressed down his impatience and asked calmly, Where is Ning, what do you want? As long as you dont hurt Ning, I can give you anything you want.
Jing Yiran was not used to this Jing Yichen who was belittling himself!
He had wanted to irritate Jing Yichen so that he could lose his calm. He had not nned to face a pile of soft cotton.
Jing Yiran started to get suspicious, but before he was able to ponder over it, he had already heard what he wanted to hear from Jing Yichen.
I want all the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise, can you give them to me?!
Jing Yichen was ready and waiting, so he said calmly, As long as you dont hurt Ning and tell me where she is, Jingsheng Enterprise will be yours!
Jing Yiran got so startled. He felt that something was wrong when what he had wanted was given to him in such an easy way.
I also want to be the heir to the Jing Family! You must leave the family and not return home ever.
Okay, its a deal! Jing Yichen sounded very calm when he repeated the question, Where is Ning? You must not hurt her!
Jing Yiran did not dare believe Jing Yichens wordspletely, but soon they were going to meet and confirm everything. So without hesitation, he said, She is at Cross-Sea Bridge, I suggest you hurry here, otherwise Sister-inw and my nephew would be brushed away by the wind!
Within one minute after the phone was disconnected, a helicopter appeared above Jing Yirans head!
Jing Yiran frowned as he recognized the helicopter. Howe it came here so fast? Could it have just happened to pass by?
Soon, he had no time to look at the sky, because as he lowered his head, he found that below the broad Cross-Sea Bridge, there were seanes dashing forward one after the another and soon they all arrived there.
Jing was the blue symbol on each seane.
Those were the Jing Familys sea nes, and six of them were here! There were only eight seanes in the entire family, since they were expensive and extremely fast. The seanes were also installed with abundant firearms and ammunition as well as torpedos, potent and aggressive.
Jing Yiran got startled!
Jing Yichens helicopter arrived a few minutester, because it had taken a detour to pick him up at Landscape Compound.
Seated in the ne, he anxiously heard his men reporting their locations to him, one after another.
Team 1 Helicopter and medical team are on the location, waiting for your order, Master!
Team 2 Helicopter are on the spot. Both Old Master and Grandpa Mu are in it. They want to have a talk with the Master, waiting for your order, Master!
Seane One arrives on the spot, waiting for your order, Master!
Seane Two arrives on the spot, waiting for your order, Master!
...
Seane Six arrives on the spot, waiting for your order, Master!
Jing Yichen heard the constant voices of reportsing to him one after another. People who had no idea of what was going on, might assume that it was a military rehearsal rather than a private fight.
Jing Yichen ordered that everyone should wait on the spot whilst he made a call to Jing Tianyuan, briefly narrating what had happened. Jing Tianyuan got so furious that he bellowed loudly!
Yichen, when you see that bastard, beat him as hard as you wish, better beat him to death. Dont worry about anything, and end his life so that our family would not be ruined by him any further.
Jing Tianyuan was furious, but he sounded serious. Apparently, he had already decided that Jing Yiran should die.
Jing Yichen understood that Jing Tianyuan knew that he would worry about the obligation between him and Jing Yiran.
But Jing Yichen had already decided not to think about the family bond.
He wanted to kill Jing Yiran right on the spot!
He was so shameless and vicious that he had threatened Shangguan Ning. Every time, he would cause Shangguan Ning to suffer deeply and this time, he was doing something even more filthy!
Jing Yichen had never felt soft towards Jing Yiran. Today, he was going to end this for good!
A few minutester, Jing Yichens helicopter reached Cross-Sea Bridge.
On the bridge, a few cars were dashing by and on one side of the bridge, some people were standing.
Jing Yichen spotted Shangguan Ning immediately.
She was dressed in the cyan dress for pregnant women which Jing Yichen had bought and a pair of baggy sport-pants. Her hair was slightly unkempt and her face was pale as she was standing at the edge of the bridge.
One more step, she would fall off the bridge into the deep sea!
Jing Yirans four men surrounded her and one of them had the gun pointed at her head. One move of hers would cause the trigger to be pulled.
The scene stung Jing Yichens eyes so badly.
Chapter 478 - Crisis Part Three
Chapter 478: Crisis Part Three
Jing Yichens heart ached so much that he wanted to fly down to her side, and take her away from the dangerous spot.
She was pregnant and was standing at such a tricky ce where she could be pushed into the sea by the men at any time.
Jing Yichen wanted to jump off the ne and break Jing Yirans neck.
Unfortunately, he could do nothing at the moment but watch Shangguan Ning stand there.
Cross-Sea Bridge had already been surrounded by Jing Yichens men, yet he was still feeling extremely anxious, fearing that something bad would happen to Shangguan Ning.
At the edge of the bridge, Shangguan Ning also saw Jing Yichen and therge troops which he had brought with him.
Four helicopters were spinning overhead, and below her were six seanes. The bridge had been cordoned off for passers-by and many police cars were parked on the bank with numerous policemen marching forward with guns.
She knew how powerful the Jing Family was, but had never witnessed their true might with her own eyes.
Shangguan Ning was not scared for herself as she stood at the edge of the bridge. She was just worried that her baby would be affected by the events taking ce.
The bridge stood high above the sea and she could see the azure sea that seemed bottomless. It was like a monster that had opened itsrge mouth, ready to engulf anyone who fell in.
Shangguan Ning massaged her belly softly, trying hard to calm herself down.
With Jing Yichen here, she had nothing to worry about. She would just obey Jing Yirans order and wait for the right time.
At least up till now, she had not been physically injured.
Shangguan Ning had no idea what happened. What she knew was that when Lu was with her, she sensed something and passed out.
When she opened her eyes again, she was already on the bridge.
Apparently, the scent from Lu made her fall into aa, because of which Jing Yiran could take her away.
She had never expected that Lu would have done something like that!
She had regarded Lu as her own sister and cared about her, yet she ended up back stabbing her.
She was not sure why Lu would help Jing Yiran. As far as she remembered, Lu had never shown any mercy towards Jing Yiran whenever they met each other. No matter which side of Lu was dominating, she was always fierce towards Jing Yiran.
Shangguan Ning did not want to believe that Lu was such a woman, yet the facts were irrefutable.
When Jing Yiran called Jing Yichen, she had overheard their conversation.
Jing Yiran had wanted to use her as a bargaining chip to get Jingsheng Enterprises shares from Jing Yichen, as well as the inheritance right of the Jing Family!
Although she had not heard what Jing Yichen said, judging from the way Jing Yiran responded, Jing Yichen must have agreed with what he asked for.
That was not eptable!
If all of these were given to Jing Yiran, then Jing Yichen would have nothing left.
Jing Yiran was far too shameless and vicious. It was bad of him to take her, a pregnant woman as a hostage. A man like this would never be able to manage Jingsheng Enterprise and Jing Family well. He would ruin the entire family.
Shangguan Ning had stood against Jing Yiran many times. She did not fear him, but the man next to her had a gun aimed at her and even a slight movement from her would alert that man.
Shangguan Ning wanted to scold Jing Yiran and tell him that he was an idiot. But she dare not swear at him or irritate him because it would not do her any good, and it was likely that the baby would suffer with her, too.
She had gone through much trouble during the pregnancy, and was on the verge of giving birth to the baby. The love of a mother inside her heart gave her endless courage and tolerance.
Shangguan Ning saw Jing Yichening down from thedder of the helicopter, and walking onto the bridge towards her.
He was in a hurry and leapt forward inrge strides.
He looked like the god of killers who had juste out of hell, lethal and ruthless.
The sea wind of the early spring was freezing, making Shangguan Ning shiver. But the moment she saw Jing Yichen, warmth spread inside her limbs. Even the bottomless sea did not seem that horrifying any more.
Compared to the poised Shangguan Ning, Jing Yiran was furious and anxious!
What was it going on? Had Jing Yichen gotten all the forces of the Jing Family here?
And howe he arrived here so fast?
What was he intending to do with helicopters, seanes and police cars all around him?
Why was he being treated like the most wanted man in the movie?
Compared to the might of Jing Yichen, the men he had brought looked ipetent and weak.
Jing Yiran could tell that his men were shivering, and were at the edge of dropping the guns.
Useless people! So easily scared by the situation.
But Yang Muyans man seemed fierce and did not care much about the Jing Familys show of strength.
Jing Yiran did not care about what those people were thinking.
They had been Jing Yirans men for years and knew that no matter how many terrible things he had conducted, he would always extract himself out of the trouble, only because he was part of the Jing Family, and no one would kill him.
But it was different for the men because if Jing Yiran made a mistake, it would be his aplices who had to shoulder the responsibility. Those who helped him would truly be punished by Jing Yichen severely!
Yang Muyans man had never witnessed the cruelty of Jing Yichen, so he was fearless. Had he known about it beforehand, he would not have shown this kind of fortitude.
Jing Yichen soon reached them, but he only had eyes upon Shangguan Ning, ignoring the rest of them.
When he saw Shangguan Ning looking pale yet unharmed, he managed to suppress the anger simmering under the surface.
Are you alright, Ning?
Shangguan Ning almost had tears trickling down her eyes when she heard his voice.
But she tried hard to make sure that she looked calm. I am fine.
Actually, after standing for so long at the edge of the bridge, she had already started to feel unwell. Yet she could not say a thing, and believed that Jing Yichen must be more furious and anxious than her at this moment.
Chapter 479 - Crisis Part Four
Chapter 479: Crisis Part Four
Jing Yiran hated it most when he saw Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichens disy of love. He was so jealous!
Jing Yichen had exceeded him in every way from the moment he was born, and he was sessful in everything.
He had thought that Jing Yichen would lose to him when it came to rtionships because he wasnt interested in women and had zero chance of getting a woman who loved him true-heartedly, yet unexpectedly, Jing Yichen managed to find a wife so excellent.
Jing Yiran knew the rtionship between Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning. He had always kept Jung Yichen under surveince. He knew that Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning met each other through a blind date and got married after knowing each other for just one month. It all happened so quickly.
That was totally unfair!
Why was Jing Yichen so lucky even in marriage?
He was going to make sure Jing Yichen lost everything!
He was going to get Jingsheng Enterprise, Family Jing and Shangguan Ning as well.
He was going to get everything which Jing Yichen fancied.
Zhang Rongs death was caused by Jing Yichen and he was definitely going to take revenge.
Did Jing Yichen really think that those men he had brought with him could save him?!
He had Shangguan Ning as the hostage and no one could do anything.
Jing Yiran looked at Jing Yichen and sneered. Jing Yichen, what are those men doing here? Ask them to retreat.
Jing Yichen said without moving, Leave Ning alone. I will give you everything you want!
Jing Yiran suddenlyughed in such a gleeful way as if he had already gotten everything he desired.
Heughed for a long time before withdrawing his expression as he sneered, Do you think that I will be stupid enough to release my only bargaining chip, and then get covered by the bullets?! Get them away, or Shangguan Ning will die right now!
He said as he poked Shangguan Nings back.
Shangguan Ning was already at the edge of the bridge and she lost her bnce with his push. She could not help but let out a scream.
Jing Yiran stretched out his hand to pull her back. But she had already turned pale.
This unexpected move made her belly ache a little. She got so frightened that she almost started to cry.
She was not afraid of heights and could swim well enough, but if she fell off the bridge, she was definitely going to lose the baby.
She did not dare to move as she stood at the edge of the bridge. The sea wind pushed her hair into her eyes but she did not have any strength to push them back.
She was trying hard to stay bnced and calm.
Jing Yichen screamed furiously seeing Shangguan Ning getting pushed. Stop it!
He looked far beyond angry, he was hopping mad.
Jing Yiran suddenly felt very pleased seeing Jing Yichen getting so angry.
See? I have your woman and childs lives in my hand. One finger of mine can send them to hell. Now, get your men away from here!
Jing Yichens heart was bleeding when he saw Shangguan Ning.
Why had he not killed Jing Yiran earlier?
Why had he decided to let him live till the present day?
Just because Jing Zhongxiu wanted him to live, he had obeyed his order.
But the consequences were being born by his wife and child.
Jing Yichens nails dug deeply into the flesh but he felt no pain.
His voice suddenly turned hoarse, Alright, I will remove my men but you must not touch Ning again!
He made thepromise, because he wanted to make sure that Shangguan Ning was fine. For her, he would agree to anything!
Jing Yichen picked up the phone and started to order his men to withdraw the force.
A minuteter, everyone drove away from the area. The Cross-Sea Bridge, which always had so much traffic, fell into dead silence.
Jing Yiran became the dominator now.
Jing Yiran had five men with him and each of them had a gun, but Jing Yichen was on his own.
Jing Yiran looked up at the sky and the sea, and found that no helicopter or the seane could be seen. So he got proud and said, Jing Yichen, arent you all mighty? Arent you super rich? But now you are on your own!
Jing Yichen did not care about his attitude. He looked up at him and said, I have removed my men, now, let Ning take one step backwards.
Shangguan Ning was wobbling as she stood at the edge of the bridge. It could be seen that she would copse anytime, probably even before he finished talking with Jing Yiran.
Jing Yichens heart ached badly, and all he could do was to make sure that she was in a rtively safer spot.
Seeing that Jing Yichen was obeying his order, Jing Yiran got quite pleased. He showed a cruel smile and pulled Shangguan Ning backwards so that she fell into his arms.
Jing Yichen got so furious that he almost burned up. He could not help but take a step forward.
Jing Yiran bellowed, Freeze! Or I will shoot her!
Jing Yichen forced himself to stand still.
Shangguan Ning did not move while she was in Jing Yirans arms, either.
As long as she did not have to stand at the edge of the bridge, it did not matter if she was being hugged by Jing Yiran. She was being practical. If she must be in his arms to keep the child safe, then she would allow that.
But she felt that Jing Yiran was behaving as if he was possessed.
He never had a bottomline for whatever he was doing, and could do anything to reach his purpose. But now, he had lost even his humanity. Probably, he had been affected by Yang Muyan and his hatred towards Jing Yichen had grown multifold.
Jing Yiran naturally had no idea what Shangguan Ning was thinking. He felt that he was in control of the situation and dominating ones life and death felt exhrating.
He was definitely not going to kill Shangguan Ning, because she was Jing Yichens biggest weakness. If she died, Jing Yichen would have no concern in this world and he would break his neck no matter how many men he had.
Jing Yiran had had some feelings for Shangguan Ning before, but not having seen her for a long time made him lose desire towards her, especially now that she was pregnant with Jing Yichens child.
He was not interested in pregnant women.
Or maybe it was because his genitals had received the needles from Mu Qing, that he had lost the desire towards all women.
He was holding Shangguan Ning in his arms right now just to annoy Jing Yichen.
Chapter 480 - Into the Sea Part One
Chapter 480: Into the Sea Part One
Jing Yichen stared at Jing Yiran without blinking. He suppressed the fury and the desire to kill and said in the calmest voice, Leave her alone. I have promised to give you whatever you want.
Jing Yichen did not want to reveal how much he wanted to kill him. He must not irritate him, otherwise Shangguan Ning would have to suffer.
If he was not able to kill Jing Yiran today, then from this moment on, he would make Jing Yirans future full of misery.
He was definitely going to kill Jing Yiran, and wouldnt care about anyone who stood in his way.
However, Jing Yiran was being very cautious. He pointed at one of his men and said, Go and search Master Jing, he may have a gun with him. He is quite good with guns, you know, one bullet from him kills!
The man who was asked to search Jing Yichen had been one of Jing Yirans oldest followers. He got very frightened when he was asked to search Jing Yichen.
Everyone knew that Jing Yichen never allowed anyone to touch him.
He had a serious obsession towards cleanness and didnt allow anyone to touch his skin, not even his clothes. Those who dared to touch him would be killed instantly!
Jing Yiran might be able to live a steady life, but he would definitely die!
Seeing his man not move, Jing Yiran bellowed furiously as if his mother had just passed away. You want me to toss you into the sea? Get over there and search him, now!
The man who was kicked by Jing Yiran staggered towards Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen said coldly, No need to search. I am not armed.
He stripped off the suit and the shirt and tossed them onto the ground.
He flipped out the pockets of his pants that were clinging to his thighs as he said calmly, See? I have no guns.
Only now did Jing Yiran get assured as he said sinisterly, You are indeed smart!
I am not armed, so I can be the hostage instead of Ning. Let go of her and you can take me as the hostage.
Jing Yichens face looked scary while his muscr body stood strong against the freezing wind.
Ha, spare me your offer! Jing Yiran was not going to fall for the trick. You are not the same as her! Even all five of us together might not be a match against you. I am not that stupid!
He said to one of his men, Nine, give him the paper and make him sign now!
The man called Nine brought out a document from his backpack, came to Jing Yichen and passed the document and a pen to him.
Jing Yichen took it and saw the Shares Transference Contract written on it. Without reading anything on the document, he came to thest page and signed his name.
But he did not give it back to Nine. He looked up and said, I have signed the paper and now Jingsheng Enterprise is yours. Send Ning to me!
Jing Yiran did not approve of it. How would I know what you have signed? Get the contract to me!
Without any more bargaining, Jing Yichen gave the contract to Nine.
Nine took it and gave it back to Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran read the signature carefully and suddenly burst intoughter.
What an easy deal! If I had known that it could be so easy, I would have not fought so hard in the past. True, a man has to be cruel to get the wealth!
Jing Yichen was not in a mood to hear him babble. He repeated. Send Ning here now!
Not yet. You havent done enough. I want more than Jingsheng Enterprise, I want the Jing Family too! Jing Yiran looked twisted and said with cruelty, Of course, I want your life too!
Jing Yichen acted as if he did not see the distorted expression on his face and said calmly, You can have whatever you want, even my life. But first of all, you must leave Ning alone. As long as she leaves safely, you can do whatever you want with me. One bullet will be enough to end my life!
Shangguan Ning could not move an inch as she was tightly held by Jing Yiran. But when she saw that Jing Yichen had given up everything, including Jingsheng Enterprise, the Jing Family and his life, she could not help but burst into tears.
She was aware that Jing Yichen was not joking.
Jing Yichen would not hesitate even for a second if he had to die for her to survive.
He had proved that earlier!
Shangguan Ning wished that she had a knife in her hands, then she would not hesitate to stab it into Jing Yirans body and kill him without even blinking.
Write a deration, and promise that you will give up the right of inheritance of the Jing Family and that you will give the right to me.
Jing Yiran gestured to Nine that he should give Jing Yichen a paper and pen.
For a huge family like the Jing Family, a deration like this would mean a lot. If he really gave up the right of inheritance, then he was not going to be in charge of the family any more.
There were some simr examples that had already happened in A City.
No matter what caused Jing Yichen to write the deration, as long as Jing Yiran made an announcement to the public about this deration, then Jing Yichen would definitely lose the right.
However, even if Jing Yichen gave up the right, it was not an easy thing for Jing Yiran to take over the Jing Family because Jing Yiran did not have the say in the Jing Family, but Jing Zhongxiu did.
However, Jing Yiran did not care about what was going to happen. It was enough for him that Jing Yichen could be thrown out of the inheritance.
Jing Yichen took the paper and pen and started to write the deration.
Soon, the words appeared on the paper C I, Jing Yichen, am willing to give up all the rights of inheritance of the Jing Family and take none of the properties from the Jing Family. Jing Yiran will be in full charge of Family Jing in the future!
Having written the words, Jing Yichen flipped the deration and showed it to Jing Yiran. I have given you all you want. Now, show your sincerity to me!
Jing Yiran was aware that if he still didnt send Shangguan Ning over, Jing Yichen was definitely not going to stay obedient for long. He had made so manypromises today and it had reached the end of his tolerance.
He released Shangguan Ning and aimed the gun at her bulging belly rather than upon her head.
Alright, Sister-inw, walk towards Jing Yichen slowly, slowly! Otherwise I may hit my nephew being a bad shooter, and that would be too bad right. Nine, get the deration here!
Shangguan Ning was shivering, and felt as if she were walking on thin air.
She had been frozen and her legs had turned numb after standing for so long under the cold wind.
Although she had a gun aimed at her back, she did not feel frightened when she saw Jing Yichens worried look.
She walked towards Jing Yichen slowly, while Jing Yichens deration was grabbed by Nine.
But when she was just one step away from Jing Yichen, she felt a strong force attacking her, pushing her off the bridge.
Chapter 481 - Into the Sea Part Two
Chapter 481: Into the Sea Part Two
Shangguan Ning fell off the bridge with a loud scream, and Jing Yichen screamed even louder. Ning! Without any further thought, he jumped in right after her.
The sea was surging and seemed bottomless.
There was only a seconds gap between Jing Yichen and Shangguan Nings jump, and they found each other, quickly. Thankfully, they were very close to thend, and the water was not flowing too violently.
As soon as Jing Yichen found Shangguan Ning, he started to swim towards her.
Shangguan Ning knew how to swim, but she did not struggle. She allowed Jing Yichen to bring her upwards. She didnt use any strength but still her belly had started to hurt.
Suddenly, traces of blood started to emerge in the water.
Shangguan Ning put her hands over her belly and the moment Jing Yichen broke her out of the water surface, she took a deep breath and said in a shivering voice, Yichen, the baby...
Jing Yichen had also noticed blood on the water. With Shangguan Ning tightly clenched in his arms, he consoled her in a hoarse voice, It is okay, Ning, the baby will be okay. Hold on, the helicopter is here!
Jing Yiran and his men were gone, and the helicopters and the seanes were approaching them fast.
With Jing Yichens arms around her, Shangguan Ning looked pale and cold sweat kept leaking out of her.
The pain in her belly got stronger and more violent, and Shangguan Ning almost passed out.
But she understood that she must not faint now, otherwise the baby would be in danger.
With her in his arms, Jing Yichen could feel his reddened eyes full of tears.
His heart ached so much!
Ning, bite me if you are in pain.
Shangguan Ning burst into tears when she heard his voice.
She would not bite him no matter how much pain she was in!
She was afraid that she would tear Jing Yichen into pieces, being out of control at this moment.
Every second in the sea was torture, but Shangguan Ning was not scared of the suffering. What scared her was that she would lose the child.
This was her first child, one that she and Jing Yichen looked forward to bringing into the world.
Jing Yichen seemed to have read her mind. With tears trickling down his cheeks, he said, Dont be scared, Ning, I have got the doctors on standby. Grandpa Mu is ready for you, too! He is a miraculous doctor and will definitely have a way to save you and the child!
When Shangguan Ning heard him speak about Grandpa Mu, she suddenly felt encouraged and even felt that the pain in the belly was no longer that strong.
With enormous effort, she asked. Really?
Jing Yichen nodded hard. It is true! You will be fine, he is the best doctor. The child will be saved, no problem at all!
Shangguan Ning did admire Mu Wensheng inside her heart, and believed that he could bring someone back from the dead. He was experienced in saving lives, and she trusted him fully.
Shangguan Ning felt hope reignite in her. Even though her lower body was bleeding and her belly still ached, she kept her mind clear and supported herself through sheer willpower.
The helicopter soon came to them, but Shangguan Ning could not grasp thedder in this situation, nor could Jing Yichen carry her up.
Soon, the seanes arrived and brought them to the coast. Then Jing Yichen carried Shangguan Ning into the helicopters cabin.
To the Mus Hospital. As fast as you can!
The medical team in the cabin were all ready for immediate-aid. The leading doctor was the one who had checked Shangguan Ning once before. She examined Shangguan Ning and said to Jing Yichen, Master Jing, the baby is in danger, the water has broken!
When the water is broken, the baby needs toe out quickly else it could be fatal.
But Shangguan Nings pregnancy period had not reached the full term and the child might die even if it was born.
Jing Yichen held Shangguan Nings hands in his and could feel her shiver. He said in a firm voice, It is okay, Ning, we will have the baby out, safe and sound. Mu Xin says that the boy is very strong. Hold on, we will soon reach the hospital. I asked her to wait for you at the hospital before I came for you. Grandpa Mu will be there too. They will keep you and our son alive, trust me!
Shangguan Nings lips had lost all color.
But what Jing Yichen said had given her some strength. She muttered in a small voice, I trust you... son will... be fine.
Five minutester, the helicopter crossed the entire A City andnded at the gate of the Mu Hospital. Mu Xin and her team were already waiting for them, there.
Shangguan Ning was soon carried into the delivery room before she could say anything to Jing Yichen.
Seeing Shangguan Nings face turning paler, Jing Yichen subconsciously wanted to follow in. But Mu Xin stopped him, Leave it to me, you must not follow us. Go and get my grandpa in case of emergency.
Mu Xin said the words and was about to enter the delivery room.
Jing Yichen grabbed hold of the door and said determinedly, No matter what happens, make sure Ning is safe. She has to be alright!
Mu Xin got a bit startled and then nodded slowly. I get it! I will try my best to keep both the mother and child safe. I will turn to grandpa for help, if needed.
Having said the words, she turned around and shut Jing Yichen out.
The thick door separated Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning into two different worlds.
Mu Xins voice could be faintly heard, distant and unreal.
Jing Yichen stood there, topless. He was no longer calm and poised.
He was only d in a pair ofpletely-soaked pants and was barefoot. His hair was dripping with water, yet he didnt seem to realise it.
Tiger put on a nket over his shoulders from behind.
He spoke in a consoling tone after a moment of silence. Master, Madam and Master Junior will be fine. Take care of yourself, they will need you to be strong.
Jing Yichen looked as if he had not heard anything. He stood there motionless.
Soon, Shangguan Nings screams arose from the operation room.
Jing Yichen shivered, and he wanted to kick open the door. But he held himself back.
He wanted to stand by Shangguan Nings side, to share her misery and give her constion and encouragement.
She was going through tremendous pain and torture because of him.
Chapter 482 - Childbirth
Chapter 482: Childbirth
In the delivery room, Shangguan Nings face waspletely red as sweat trickled down her face. The violent pain made her burst out in screams.
She heard Mu Xin talking to her in a steady tone.
Ning, push when I tell you to and hold your breath when I ask. The baby depends on you!
As a matter of fact, Shangguan Ning was not doing well, or to be more precise, she was in a very serious situation. But Mu Xin knew that she needed to give encouragement to her, otherwise Shangguan Ning would faint.
Mu Xin told her assistant. Get 400CC blood to her and pitocin.
Shangguan Ning felt that she was running out of strength. She wanted to close her eyes and go to sleep. She felt that Mu Xins voices were fading away.
But she must not sleep, absolutely not!
She must give birth to the child!
She had nurtured him for so long. She wanted to see what he looked like!
Jing Yichen must be waiting for her and the child, she must keep going on!
Shangguan Ning used her final strength to get the child out of her.
Mu Xin kept encouraging her, teaching her the right technique.
...
Outside the delivery room, Jing Yichen was standing still. He had not moved an inch.
His heart felt tightly gripped when he heard Shangguan Nings voice weakening.
He heard hurried steps in the corridor.
Yichen, how is Ning doing?
This was from Jing Tianyuan.
Jing Yichen, who had been standing like a statue, turned around instantly when he heard the voice.
He did not turn to Jing Tianyuan, but to Mu Wensheng who was with him.
Jing Yichen said to Mu Wensheng with a hoarse voice, Grandpa Mu, please go in and check on Ning.
But Mu Wensheng shook his head, and said, Mu Xin specialises in gynaecology and obstetrics and is very experienced. She has note out, means that she can still handle what is happening inside and I am not needed. Your wife must be going through a rtively safe situation. What you need to do is to sit here and wait.
Jing Yichen was still anxious and was about to talk to him further when Mu Wensheng said, It might not be a good thing for me to enter the room and disturb the childbirth. The baby is already more than seven months old, and if no ident happens, Mu Xin is definitely going to make sure that they both are fine. Trust me, I was Mu Xins mentor. I know how capable she is!
Although Jing Yichen was still feeling very anxious, he believed that Mu Wensheng was not going to be careless about Shangguan Ning and the unborn child.
If he said that Mu Xin could handle it, she would!
The endless fear inside his heart finally faded away. He looked at Jing Tianyuan and said, Grandpa, Jing Yiran has taken away the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise and also has my deration of giving up the rights of inheritance.
Jing Tianyuan said calmly, It is okay. He will not be able to get even a penny. Your father is on his way to deal with him. He may think that we will not kill him, just because he has the Jing Familys blood. But now, he has crossed all limits. He will die now.
Having said the words, he frowned at Jing Yichen. Go and get changed! Do you think that your wife will be pleased to see you like this after childbirth? Dont catch a cold or infect my great-grandson!
Jing Tianyuans words worked better than anyone elses. Jing Yichen instantly asked Tiger to get him a new outfit.
Tiger soon brought the clothes and Jing Yichen changed quickly before returning to stand outside the delivery room, waiting in silence and suffering.
Neither Mu Wensheng nor Jing Tianyuan left. They took a seat on the bench outside the delivery room.
Jing Tianyuan was also very anxious and nervous, fearing that something would happen to Shangguan Ning and the child.
But he knew Mu Wensheng well. He would never leave someone to die. If he was not in the delivery room yet, it meant that Shangguan Ning was doing fine.
Time passed one second after another. A little whileter, a babys cry arose from the delivery room. Initially, the crying did not sound real, but started getting clearer and clearer behind the closed doors.
Jing Yichen shivered in disbelief. His eyes dazzled with joy.
Jing Tianyuan sprang up from the chair and looked even more excited than Jing Yichen. Ah, my great-grandson is here! Listen, he sounds so loud, he must be very strong!
He was so happy that he just couldnt stop talking. He paced back and forth in the corridor, showing much more excitement than Jing Yichen.
Mu Wensheng looked at him with displeasure. Alright, alright, stop pacing back and forth! My eyes are getting a strain. My granddaughter inherited my skills. She has delivered thousands of babies and not failed even once. She is indeed excellent!
Jing Tianyuan waved at Mu Wensheng. I will definitely remember her hard work, but why is my great-grandson not here yet?
Hearing what Jing Tianyuan said, Jing Yichen turned to look at Mu Wensheng as well. He wanted to go in and have a look at them.
Mu Wensheng rolled his eyes at his old friend. You are getting stupid in your old age. After the child is born, the mother is going to see him first to check the gender. Then the baby will be bathed before you are allowed to take a look at him. So uneducated!
Actually, although Mu Wensheng was ming Jing Tianyuan for being uneducated, he was also very eager to see the newly-born.
Old people tended to have a soft corner for children. It didnt take long before a doctor carried the child out.
Jing Tianyuan and Mu Wensheng bent forward to take the first look at the baby.
Jing Yichen, however, ignored the child but walked into the delivery room.
The delivery room had been tidied up by the doctors, but traces of blood were all around.
Shangguan Nings sweat-covered face had been wiped by Mu Xin, and when she saw Jing Yichen, she smiled at him weakly.
Jing Yichen finally felt assured. He took hold of Shangguan Nings cold hands and kissed her lips. He said, Ning, I am really sorry that you had to go through so much!
Shangguan Ning wanted to respond to him, but she failed to do so because of herck of strength.
But she was satisfied now. She had seen her child and heard his cry. She had made it!
She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Seeing Shangguan Ning closing her eyes, Jing Yichen got so frightened that he cried out, Doctor, please check her!
Mu Xin got startled by the sudden cry of Jing Yichen. She turned to Shangguan Ning. She felt her pulse before saying in a relieved tone, She is just tired and has fallen asleep. She is fine.
Chapter 483 - Lu Went Crazy
Chapter 483: Lu Went Crazy
Jing Yiran entered home with the prize. But the moment he entered his room, he felt a pistol aimed against his temple.
Give me the stuff!
A ghost-like silhouette was standing behind Jing Yiran, and then the scent of candy entered his nose.
He did not move, but showed a sinister smile on his face. Lu, you have woken up! I am so sorry that I drugged you with a heavy dose. I was worried that a small quantity may not work in your case. Does your head hurt? Go and drink some water! It is not nice of you to y with guns all the time. Put the gun down and lets have a nice talk.
Lu kept the gun pointed against Jing Yirans temple and didnt move an inch as she said coldly, How dare you use me! You have reached the end of your life.
Her baby-voice sounded tender and sweet. But she was speaking in such a lethal tone that Jing Yiran felt nervous.
She was so slender, looking tiny against Jing Yiran who was tall and strong.
But her aura was really scary, making the rooms temperature drop by several degrees!
Was this the real Lu?
But Jing Yiran did not care how she acted. He firmly believed that Lu was not going to kill him. So he said with a smile on the face, I did not use you. I was just asking you for help. Oh no, I asked the other Lu for help. You are not to be med.
Lu sized him up as if she were looking at a corpse. Then she said sharply, You dont have to convince me. She and I are the same people! If you used her, you used me too. Where is Shangguan Ning?
Oh, she fell into the sea, but wont die right away. But I am not sure about the baby. I was not the one who pushed her down, though. It was Yang Muyans man who did that. I had nothing to do with it. It was unlucky of her to be involved with Yang Muyan.
Jing Yiran stood there like a sincere guy, showing a nonchnt expression.
I told you not to irritate Jing Yichen. Dont you feel that you are shameless and despicable to threaten him with Shangguan Ning?
Lus voice was getting colder and colder.
Obviously, she was very furious. Shangguan Ning could be taken away by Jing Yiran because of her and she had to shoulder the responsibility. She had caused Shangguan Nings suffering!
However, Jing Yiran got furious after hearing what she said, and argued back. Why cant I irritate him? I will irritate him and kill him too. Now I have the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise and will be the chief of Jingsheng Enterprise and also of the Jing Family. Why are you getting involved in this? You are an outsider anyway!
Lu withdrew the gun and struck hard on Jing Yirans shoulder. Then, she broke his arm with a loud popping sound.
Jing Yiran screamed and fell onto the floor. His face turned red because of the violent pain.
You mad woman! Are you crazy? Didnt you fall in love with me? Why are you treating me so badly? Who would ever want to marry you when you are so violent!
Lu showed a cold smile seeing Jing Yiran lying at her feet.
I am a maniac, just as you said. Hahaha, cant I ruin a man even if I like that man? I can kill him, too. If I kill him, then he will never betray me and the love will remain pure. Anyway, even if I dont kill you, Jing Yichen will do so. If you die in my hands, I can make it quick!
Jing Yiran was so surprised by Lus sudden change of attitude.
He was not even aware of the pain in his arm, and stared at Lu who had gonepletely crazy.
He always thought that even if Lu had a split personality, both the versions were at least reasonable, if not sensible.
But now it seemed that she did have mental issues, severe ones.
Lu in this way was too scary!
Was it that she had been hurt by someone in the past? Maybe someone she loved had betrayed her, because of which her mind was deeply affected?
But that was impossible!
Lu had been a woman with a split personality for a long time, and she barely met anyone or had any idea about rtionships. If she had been emotionally hurt before, she would not have been so naive right now.
What on earth was going on?
Jing Yiran had no idea why Lu suddenly went crazy. Earlier, she would not have cared a thing about what he said or teased her with. What was happening to her today?
Lu, you are speaking nonsense! When have I betrayed you? If you want to kill me because you love me, then you are just crazy. I dont think that I can respect you after this.
Lu stared down at Jing Yiran from amanding position and aimed at his head with the gun cocked. She said coldly, I dont need your respect. Give me everything you took from them today, or I will shoot!
Jing Yiran got very frightened by the twisted expression on Lus face.
You wont have any use for whatever I give you. Also, you better stay away from Jing Yichen. He hates you at this moment and is getting someone to kill you. You can stay by my side. I can support you, even ten of you, with such a huge enterprise like Jingsheng Enterprise!
Without saying a word, Lu moved the gun downwards and pulled the trigger without hesitation. She had aimed at his lower body.
Jing Yirans scream arose in the living room. He curled into a fetal position and rolled around in pain.
He had never expected that Lu would actually pull the trigger!
One more inch, and his manhood would have been ruined!
He wanted to curse at Lu, but was in so much pain that he couldnt say a single word.
One more time and your manhood will be gone.
Lus bullet caused blood to stter everywhere, but she did not seem to care much. Instead, she said, All men are bastards! I showedpassion and sympathy towards you, but you betrayed me by selling me out.
Having said the words, she bent down and broke Jing Yirans other arm as well, making him cry out even louder.
Chapter 484 - Humiliation
Chapter 484: Humiliation
Lu, dont think that you can do whatever you want. I did nothing except put you to sleep for a few hours. I never hurt you! And I have been treating you well all this while. But you are torturing me like a maniac. Dont you feel guilty about it?
Jing Yirans face had turned distorted because of the extreme pain. He looked at Lu as if he wanted to consume her.
Lu had hit him before too, but she had never been like this, ruthless and lethal!
He had taken advantage of Lu today, but he did not hurt her. He had nned to buy her choctes today and apologize when he came home. He had nned to tell her not to get mad, but ended up being tortured to death!
The wound at his thigh kept bleeding, and the fiery pain of the bullet made him groan in misery. His broken arms hung helplessly by his side.
Jing Yiran had believed that Lu had feelings for him and would be willing to take care of him and follow him. He had thought that Lu would not cut him loose just because she had been taken advantage of by him.
It had been a minor matter but Lu smeed to have taken it so seriously!
It seemed that Lu felt a bit assured after she broke Jing Yirans two arms. She threw a cold look at him and said, You are an untrustworthy man. I broke your arms just in case. I have no interest in torturing you, because you are too weak. Shame on you to have cried out so loudly after just one bullet!
It seemed as if she had guessed what Jing Yiran was thinking when she replied calmly, Also, you can fight against Jing Yichen in whichever way you want, but next time, if you dare to touch Shangguan Ning, I will not spare you and send you directly to the hell. It is fine to be lethal and ruthless, but you have to be a man first. You have lost the etiquettes of being one, and are worse than a dog. You know why you are always inferior to Jing Yichen? Because he is a man and you are a dog!
Shut up! You are the bitch, you are lesser than even a pig!
Jing Yiran kept bellowing furiously, but Lu acted as if she had not heard a thing. She said nonchntly, I am not a woman in love. If anyone sells me out, I will not follow him around like a stupid woman. If the Jing Family arent willing to kill you, it is okay, because I am. Honestly, love is the most unreliable thing in the world. I have no love inside me, but you are worse than me, because you dont deserve love!
Who told you that they arent willing to kill me? They want me dead, all of them!
Lu threw a cold look at him. You would not have been so impulsive and fearless if you had not been aware that the Jing Family wouldnt do anything to you. Jing Yichen must be a soft-hearted man to keep you alive till the present day. Stop wasting my time, give me back the stuff!
She started taking off Jing Yirans clothes. Soon he was naked in front of her, without even his underpants on.
When she had been stripping him, she wasnt gentle. She was rough and violent, causing Jing Yiran so much pain that he almost passed out.
After she was done with him, heid on the floor with a pale face, and no strength.
You maniac, what do you strip me for?
Seeing Jing Yirans naked body, Lu showed no embarrassment or difort.
She checked Jing Yiran out by flipping him around, and went to check his clothes after seeing that he had nothing left on him.
Jing Yiran felt extremely humiliated!
Many women had taken his clothes off before, but every time, it had been a lustful and exciting experience.
But today, he felt nothing but humiliation!
He was like a piece of rug that was flipped back and forth and touched by Lu, but only as a piece of wood.
He was injured, and couldnt move, but his physicque exceeded that of many top models. How could he stand being ruined by Lu?
Had he owed anything to this maniac in his previous life, that he had to go through such humiliation now?
But the worse, came afterwards!
After Lu checked his clothes out, she found no contract or deration papers.
His fierce voice echoed across the living room. Lu, you goddamn bitch, let go of me! I am going to kill you!
But what he felt was fear.
Seeing Jing Yirans handsome face filled with unusual redness, Lu said coldly, Where is it? Tell me now, or I will cut it off!
Jing Yiran spat out a mouthful of blood. He couldnt stand it any more!
How could there be any woman in this world who was as shameless as her?
He wanted to p her and cursed at her violently!
But his manhood was in her hand and he dare not say a single word. He was afraid that if he irritated her, she might really cut it off!
She was strong and indeed capable of anything.
But Lu was his achilles heel, and always had the way to vex him.
Ha, your manhood is so small and wrinkled, no wonder you cant get a woman. You cant be hard, can you? Serve you right!
You are such a disgusting monster! Jing Yiran couldnt stand it any more. He cried in fear.
What made Lu change into such a woman overnight? She looked like someone who would show no mercy to her enemy.
Lu suddenly burst intoughter. But she was not amused.
Monster? Herrge eyes stared at Jing Yiran like he was a snake. Then she said in an ice-cold tone, Yes, that is one of my names, but maybe you have heard of another name of mine as well, one that will shut you up permanently, as long as you remember what it is!
Another name?
What name?
Chapter 485 - Fire and Ice
Chapter 485: Fire and Ice
Jing Yiran was trying hard to search his brain for any clue but failed.
He knew that Lu had another identity. He had always suspected it.
He was sure that he had seen Lu somewhere before, but he just couldnt remember where!
I have seen you before. Who on earth are you?!
Jing Yirans voice shivered slightly, probably in fright or because he was naked.
Lu said, It doesnt matter who I am. What matters is that you must tell me where you put the contract and the deration? If you dont, your manhood will be ruined, and then I will destroy your arms and feet, cut your ears and take out one of your eyes. What do you think?
Jing Yiran felt dread creeping inside his heart. His handsome face turnedpletely pale and he had no expression on it other than fright. He no longer looked arrogant, instead, was as docile as a doll in front of her.
You..... you are not human! I will tell you everything, just let go of me!
For the first time in this entire year, he suddenly realized that Mu Qings needles had lost their effect. He was a normal man now.
But Jing Yiran was not happy at all!
He felt as if he was being raped by Lu, very humiliating!
This was not what he wanted.
Jing Yiran spoke through clenched teeth. I have given the deration to Yang Muyan. She is probably gathering the media right now to make the announcement. The contract is inside the bank. Apart from me, no one else can take it out.
Hearing the truth from him, Lu stopped what she was doing, took out her cell phone and called Jing Zhongxiu.
Jing Yiran, who felt the sexual desire shoot up inside him due to her hand on his organ, was halted halfway, making him feel even more miserable. The pain on his arms and thighs was so much that he wished he could faint.
He believed that it was worse for him to be at the mercy of Lu than at Jing Yichen and Jing Zhongxiu.
What on earth had he done in his previous life so that he had to be tortured by Lu in this way?
Jing Yiranid still on the floor and listened to Lus conversation with Jing Zhongxiu over the phone.
Uncle Jing, the deration is with Yang Muyan and the contract is at the bank. Jing Yiran might have to take it out in person, so I wont kill him now. But he is already at the edge of death. Dont be heartbroken! Oh, yes, Old Lady was here half an hour ago but I knocked her out, too. She will be fine, except that she may feel a headache for a couple of days.
Hearing that Mo Lan was knocked out by Lu, Jing Yiran got so annoyed that he wanted to hit her.
After Lu hung up, he bellowed furiously, No matter who you are, never ever touch my grandma! She is an old woman and cant stand your torture.
Lu stared at him and sneered. I had thought that you have no human left inside you. You used me because I was nice to you, you took Shangguan Ning, the pregnant woman as a hostage, and you felt no sadness after your mother died. What makes your grandma so special that you want to protect her?
Only now did Jing Yiran realize that Lu could speak harsh words, even harsher than him.
He was in a disadvantageous position in front of Lu. He was nothingpared to her, who was strong and skilled at guns. He even couldnt beat her at arguing!
Lu had no weakness, except for her split personality.
Jing Yiran didnt think that it was in bad luck when he lost to Lu. It had been he, who misjudged his rival and overestimated his own charm.
But, would he sit still and wait for death?
That was impossible!
Jing Yiran wasughing inside his heart. If he had not been fully prepared, he would not have taken the risk to make use of Lu to take Shangguan Ning as the hostage!
Lu, wait and see who wouldugh in the end.
I have never been so humiliated in my entire life. You are a dead woman!
Lu may not have any weaknesses, but she was not entirely invulnerable. She would turn into an innocent girl as long as the environment turned quiet and that would make the n work smoothly.
Lu could not see through Jing Yirans idea, nor would she care even if she did.
She found the gauze, bent down and wrapped up Jing Yiran, in case he bled more and died.
Soon, Jing Zhongxius doctors came to take out the bullet from Jing Yirans thigh.
Lu watched the whole process standing next to them. He had no way of getting away. But she needed to stay vignt in case anyone came to help him.
She had seen Jing Yirans body, and touched every part, hence she felt no shyness when she saw him lying naked on the bed.
After the doctor checked the wound and prepared for the operation, he was just about to inject the anesthetic when Lu spoke all of a sudden, No need for anesthesia.
Jing Yiran, who had been going through so much pain, looked belligerent. He wanted to throw Lu into mes.
Thats enough, Lu! People can die out of pain without anesthesia when the bullet is taken out. Havent you tortured me enough today? Give me the anesthetic! Jing Yiran bellowed at the doctor.
But the doctor was Jing Zhongxius man and he didnt listen to what Jing Yiran said. Without hesitating, he took the de and cut open Jing Yirans body, ready to take out the bullet.
Jing Yiran let out a painful cry and passed out, not being able to stand the pain any more.
Chapter 486 - Little Jing Rui Part One
Chapter 486: Little Jing Rui Part One
In a ward of the Mus Hospital, a mother and a baby were lying in bed, and a handsome man was seated by the bedside.
Shangguan Ning had been sleeping for quite some time now. In the dream, she saw that she had fallen off from a high altitude and was immersed in freezing sea water.
She wanted to scream out, but she could not utter a sound.
Ning, Ning! Wake up, you are dreaming again, wake up now!
Shangguan Ning suddenly woke up when she heard the familiar voice.
She opened her eyes and that familiar and handsome face greeted her eyes.
Yichen...
She spoke softly, but the voice sounded hoarse as if she had not had water for days.
Jing Yichen took hold of her hands and whispered in a concerned voice. Did you have a bad dream? Dont worry, I am here.
Shangguan Ning smiled and was about to speak when she felt enormous pain in her lower body, reminding her of what had just happened.
She turned her head instantly and a smile hovered over her face when she saw the sleeping baby next to her.
She took hold of her sons lovely hand and asked softly. Is the baby okay?
Jing Yichens tired face also showed joy as he threw a nce at the sleeping baby. Dont worry, Grandpa Mu has checked him. He says that even if he is born two months earlier, he is still very strong, 2.95 kilos, almost 3, as heavy as normal children.
It was quite healthy of the baby to be born at almost 3 kilos when he was only 7 months old in the belly.
Grandpa Mu said that the baby was well developed and had taken abundant nutrients from the mother. Although Jing Yichen had been by their bedside the entire night, he didnt feel tired at all.
Jing Yichen felt his heart fill with pleasure when he saw his wife and son lying in front of him, safe and sound.
He had been prepared for the worst. He had believed that even if they lost the child, he would not suffer so much, as long as Shangguan Ning was fine. They could still have children in the future.
Unexpectedly, however, Mu Xin had inherited Grandpa Mus professional skills and made sure that both the mother and son were fine. It had not been an easy task.
Seeing his little son sleeping by his wifes side, Jing Yichen felt his heart melt at the sight of the cute hands and feet.
He would definitely have torn apart Jing Yiran had something happened to his child.
Anyways, Jing Yiran must be suffering now. He would definitely have regretted being born in this world after ending up in Lus hands.
Hearing that the child was fine, Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief. She held her sons tender hands and kissed them gently.
She felt her heart soften when she saw the baby next to her and thought that it did not matter how much pain she had gone through, as long as she managed to deliver him fine. This was her deep love towards her child.
Mothers love was tremendously strong, otherwise Shangguan Ning didnt think that she would have pulled through this.
She threw a look at Jing Yichen and then at the child, and said with a smile, Do you think that the baby looks like you?
Jing Yichen saw Shangguan Nings pale face and sounded gentle and spoiling. Yes, and he looks like you too. He is very good-looking. He will love and respect you deeply, when you suffered so much giving birth to him.
He did love his one-day old son, but he was more concerned about his wife who had suffered so much in childbirth.
Shangguan Ning smiled and happiness was dancing all over her face. She sounded hoarse, but she sounded gentle. It is okay that I suffered a bit. That is what childbirth is like! All is worth the while as long as our son is fine.
She still felt a bit scared when she thought of being pushed off the bridge and falling into the water.
Her son could have been in her belly for two more months, but now he was brought to this world by force. Shangguan Ning felt very sorry to have done this to her son.
She didnt care if her son would love and respect her. What she wanted was for her son to grow into a healthy man.
Jing Yichen could see that Shangguan Ning was feeling guilty.
He held Shangguan Nings hand and said in a soft voice, Ning, dont me yourself. If someone should be med, it would be me. Dont worry, I will definitely take revenge, and will not allow Jing Yiran to live any longer.
Jing Yichen sounded gentle, yet determined.
Shangguan Ning was aware that he was really angry this time. She also wanted Jing Yiran to die as soon as possible, but she was also worried that what Jing Yichen was doing would make his rtionship with Jing Zhongxiu worse.
After all, Jing Yiran was part of the bloodline of the Jing Family and was Jing Zhongxius second son.
Jing Yichen already guessed what Shangguan Ning was thinking, judging from her expression. He said softly, Dont worry about Dad. This time, he has crossed the bottomline and neither Dad or Grandpa would forgive him for that.
If Jing Yirans n had been to only get the shares and the rights of inheritance from him, Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan would have spared his life. But what he had done was to make use of Shangguan Ning and even threatened her and her child. That was something neither Jing Zhongxiu nor Jing Tianyuan would tolerate.
Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief. As long as the father and son rtionship would not be affected, then all was fine. They had just made peace and must not be estranged just because of Jing Yiran. It was not worth the while.
Shangguan Ning calmed herself and stared at her son. She kept smiling and then thought something suddenly C her son had not been given a name yet. She turned to Jing Yichen and asked with twinkling eyes. Has Grandpa got a name for the little fellow yet?
The couple had chosen some names for the child before, but were rejected by Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan. That had upset the couple.
Jing Tianyuan didnt care if his grandson was annoyed, but he was worried that Shangguan Ning would not be happy about it. So he had exined to her that the naming of the child should be based upon the time he was born at, alongwith the date of birth and the eight characters of the horoscope.
Shangguan Ning did not have a deep knowledge about this, nor did she believe much in it. But giving a meaningful name was important too, so she was not too upset about it.
For her, it did not matter who named her son. Since the Old Master knew so much about I Ching and the Eight Diagram, she would leave the matter to him.
Chapter 487 - Little Jing Rui Part Two
Chapter 487: Little Jing Rui Part Two
But Jing Yichen felt that his grandpa had deprived him of the right to name his son, and for that, he stopped talking with Jing Tianyuan and sulked for a few days.
Jing Tianyuan did not approve of Jing Yichens proposal of naming the child and did not care if Jing Yichen spoke to him or not. He had a great-grandson and his grandson did not matter that much any more. When the great-grandson was born, he made the necessary calctions regarding the childs birth time and after four hours, he reached the name Rui.
But when Old Master came up with the name, Shangguan Ning was still fast asleep, unaware of the happenings around her.
Jing Yichen smiled and said in a whisper, Yes, Rui will be the name, Rui as in intelligence, and his nickname will be Ruirui. It sounds good.
Jing Yichen was quite pleased by Jing Tianyuans idea. He had note up with a strange orplicated name, but one that had deep meaning and sounded simple. So he epted his proposal dly.
Shangguan Ning thought over the name and felt that it sounded good. She said gleefully, Good name! Grandpa is great, his ideas are better than mine!
Jing Yichen could not help butugh. So you also know that you are so bad at naming our child!
No matter what name Jing Tianyuan would havee up with, he would not have made it straightforward and random, something like Baby Jing Junior, Baby Jing Senior etc.
It was okay if a child was called Baby Junior or Baby Senior. It sounded cute. But when the child grew up, it would be so silly if a man was called Baby Jing Senior.
Shangguan Ning did not mind being mocked by Jing Yichen. She kissed her sons cheeks gleefully and called out his name. My little Ruirui, my lovely baby! Ruirui is definitely going to be very smart.
Maybe the little baby heard Shangguan Ning. He moved his limbs and started to wail without opening his eyes, startling the new parents.
Neither of them had experienced taking care of children ever, so they started to panic.
Shangguan Ning, out of instinct, picked him in her arms and pampered him anxiously. Dear baby, dear Ruirui, I am here for you...
The little fellow cried so loud. He indeed sounded strong!
Seeing his son wail, Jing Yichen panicked for a moment and then was reminded of what Mu Xin had told him before C newly-born baby might get hungry when he woke up. So he said, Ning, our son may be hungry, try feeding him.
Ah?Shangguan Ning got startled, and then unbuttoned her blouse and put her swollen breast into her sons mouth.
When Jing Ruitched on, he stopped crying and started to drink the milk.
But Shangguan Ning did not seem to have sufficient milk. Jing Rui did not get enough from one side, so Shangguan Ning had to switch to the other breast to feed him.
Luckily, Jing Rui had just been born and didnt need that much. He finally got full after two rounds.
The little fellow burped, and fell asleep again. During the entire process, he only wailed for a few seconds and did not even open his eyes.
With her son fully fed and falling asleep in her arms, Shangguan Ning felt content.
Jing Yichen did not want her to hold the baby for too long, so he said, Put down the baby, let him sleep on the bed. Your arms would get ufortable after holding him for too long and it may lead to someplications.
Shangguan Ning threw a surprised look at him and asked. How did you know that?
Jing Yichen might not have the experience, but he had been reading the relevant books for some time and knew what a woman should and should not do during the first month after childbirth.
Mo Lan could have visited and taken care of Shangguan Ning, but for one thing, she did not know that Shangguan Ning had given birth to the child. More importantly, she was in aa because she had been knocked out by Lu. For another, Jing Yichen did not like Mo Lan much, and he would not allow her to take care of Shangguan Ning.
He had called Zhao Zhao and asked her to take care of Shangguan Ning and the child.
Jing Yichenughed and looked at Shangguan Nings plump breasts, then he took hold of her hands and recounted the dos and donts to her.
He said, I have asked Aunt toe and help. She will be here soon. You can ask her if you have some more questions. I read all of this in books, and all the information may not be necessarily urate. Sister Lan and Sister Fang would visit today, too. They both have children and Sister Lan has two of them. With those experienced people, you will not be tired. Two more days, if you both are fine, we will go home.
He had already got everything well-arranged and taken everything into consideration. He had been so careful that Shangguan Ning felt surrounded by warmth.
She replied with a smile. Sure, whatever you say, I will follow.
By noon, both Sister Lan and Sister Fang had arrived, looking delighted after hearing that Shangguan Ning had given birth to the Master Junior.
They knew that the due date had been two months away, and had no idea why the baby arrived earlier. Yet, they were very happy.
An old saying was that if the baby was born in the 7th month, he would usually live, but if he was born in the 8th, then the possibility of staying alive would be less.
Sister Lan had brought the thick crucian soup that would help improve the quantity of mothers milk. As she brought out the food, she said, Lady, Master Junior looks so big, and his hair is dense. It is very rare that a child born in the 7th month would look so fine. Master Junior looks as if he were born in full term. Dont worry, Master Junior would definitely live well and be healthy!
Shangguan Ning had never seen other newly-born babies, so she couldnt make aparison. But after hearing what Sister Lan said, she was very pleased.
She had feared that Jing Ruis growth would be affected because he was born early. But after hearing what Sister Lan said, she smiled brightly.
That is wonderful! I think that Ruirui looks quite energetic. He cried so loudly today, what a strong fellow!
A mother never thought that there was anything less than perfect about her son. It was the same for Shangguan Ning. She felt that Jing Rui was perfect in every way.
Jing Yichen agreed with Sister Lan. He had seen some newly-born babies at the hospital who were born post nine months of pregnancy, but all of them looked as strong as Jing Rui, and some of them did not even cry as loudly as his son!
Chapter 488 - Mother
Chapter 488: Mother
Mu Xin also said that arge baby like Jing Rui was quite rare. She felt that it could have been because Shangguan Ning had been drinking the very expensive medicinal wine which Mu Wensheng had given her. The wine was filled with nutrients and essence, which had been easily absorbed by the baby and helped in its development. Therefore, it was not strange that Jing Rui was so well developed even after being born prematurely.
Jing Yichen was not at all worried about how his son would turn out.
He replied with a smile, Ning, our son is no different from any full-term child. When you are strong enough to get off the bed, we can go and look at other children. Then you will know that I am telling the truth. Ruirui is not behind anyone else. But you should improve your milk production because our son might be quite greedy!
Speaking of that, Shangguan Ning felt helpless. She took the crucian soup which Sister Lan prepared for her and asked in concern. Sister Lan, what should I do about increasing my milk? Will crucian soup work?
She had no intention of starving her boy, and mothers milk was the best for babies. She did not have any intention of giving her son the milk powder.
Sister Lan and Sister Fang burst intoughter as they heard her. Lady, you have just given birth to a boy, of course you are low on milk. Dont worry, it will improve slowly.
Crucian soup is best for milk. Old Du can make a soup of peanuts and pig feet. That works well too. Master Junior is definitely going to be well fed!
Lady, drink milk every day and that will also help. It is not very difficult to increase milk. Dont worry! Also, keep your mood steady. If you get unhappy, the milk supply may get affected and it would not be good for Master Junior, either!
Also, dont be afraid of putting on weight. If you eat food with nutrients during the first month, you will be able to recover well and will have enough milk to feed him. Dont be careless about this!
They kept talking for long, but Shangguan Ning did not find them annoying. Instead, she listened to them very carefully.
No one had told her about any of these, and when these experienced aunts shared their wisdom, she was naturally quite grateful.
Jing Yichen was also listening to them carefully. He decided to give them one months sry as bonus, making Sister Lan and Sister Fang extremely happy.
They had not expected anything in return for taking care of Shangguan Ning. Seeing that she had given birth to the baby, they couldnt help bute up with all the ideas they could think of, teaching her what she could and could not do. Now when they got the bonus, they became even more passionate.
By the time it was evening, Zhao Zhao and Old Lady Zhao came to the ward, making it lively and full of fun.
When little Jing Rui woke up next, he opened his eyes. Everyone was surprised, because none of them felt that he was like a premature child.
Old Lady Zhao was experienced, and knew much more about children than Shangguan Ning. She said with determination at the sight of Jing Rui. This child is a lucky fellow and a strong one too.
Getting a great-grandson, she was extremely happy, so she gave him an exceptionally huge red packet.
She was thinking that if her elder daughter had still been alive, she would have been so d today.
Zhao Zhao obviously had thought the same thing as her. Her eyes were red and tears trickled down her cheeks. If my sister knew that she had a grandson, she would have really shown off everywhere. I will go and burn some paper at her grave and tell her this piece of good news!
She was a straightforward woman and didnt regard Shangguan Ning as an outsider. She just spilled out whatever she had in mind.
Old Lady Zhao did not stop her, in fact she also became very emotional.
Shangguan Ning knew that they were all happy. Zhao Qing might not be here, but they were d on her behalf.
She had not met her mother-inw, yet she also felt that she should tell her about this piece of good news, personally.
When I recover, I will go and kowtow to mother with Jing Rui.
They were not just going to visit Zhao Qings grave, but also to Huang Liyus. Both her mother and mother-inw did not get to see Jing Rui. That was indeed sad.
Zhao Zhao wiped her eyes and said with a smile, It is okay, no need to hurry! We can go when Ruirui grows up. You both should take care right now. Do not get sick because of exertion.
She was so happy that she looked several years younger. Even the worry caused by the missing Zhao Anan was not that strong at this moment.
She was thinking that Zhao Anan could go anywhere she wanted. Nothing mattered as long as she returned unharmed. Anyways, she would cut her ie and break her legs, so that she would never be able to run away ever.
What a horrible person that she did not even visit Shangguan Ning after she gave birth to the baby!
Zhao Zhao was a broad-minded person. After being sad for a short while, Zhao Zhao again started to y with Jing Rui. She refused to let go of him and even held him in her arms when he was fast asleep. She couldnt hold back her love towards the baby.
Shangguan Ning felt loved.
Zhao Zhao looked really young, but she was in her fifties. Shangguan Ning feared that she would run out of strength after holding Jing Rui for so long, so she asked her to put down Jing Rui and take a rest.
When Shangguan Ning saw Zhao Zhao today, her first thought was that Zhao Anan was still missing.
Now when she became a mother, she could understand Zhao Zhaopletely.
If one day Jing Rui went missing, she would get so anxious that she might burst into tears. Zhao Zhaos behaviour already showcased her strength.
She thought for a moment and said softly, trying to console Zhao Zhao. Aunt, dont worry. Anan is fine! Mu Qing is definitely going to find her. She is just a naughty girl who has hidden herself . She is not in any danger. Maybe she is having fun somewhere right now!
Shangguan Ning was not sure what had happened to Zhao Anan, but this was all she could say, otherwise Zhao Zhao would copse due to stress.
Zhao Zhao understood what she meant. She chuckled, stood up from the sofa and said in a rxed tone, Aunt is fine! I know what Anan is like. She is just very spoiled. After I divorced her father, I felt that I owed her something, so I gave into her demands all the time. When she got sick, I started to spoil her even more. That was why she became so unruly!
She paused for a moment and then said with determination, I am Anans mother and I can feel if she is fine or not. Soon you will understand what a mother and childs connection is.
Shangguan Ning got slightly startled and could not help but believe her words.
It was great that Anan was doing fine!
Chapter 489 - Near yet Far
Chapter 489: Near yet Far
Zhao Anan was indeed fine, except that she regretted having run away.
Because she ended up being held in a prison-like room, shut in close quarters with that muscr man. She was not injured, yet she was extremely ufortable to have been isted, especially after being an outgoing person.
Everytime she became ufortable, she wouldunch a prison break. Although she would be brought back, Zhao Anan still had not got tired of repeating her actions.
That perverted man was so strong that even if she bit him, scratched him, and kicked him hard, she still couldnt win. After two months of doing the same thing, her skills had improved slightly.
However, Zhao Anan couldnt think of who would have wanted to trap her in this way.
It seemed to be a bad deal for that person. He had to feed her and pay a qualified bodyguard to guard her all the time!
She knew that Jing Yichen and Mu Qing must be searching for her across the world.The kidnapper had changed three locations already and each of them was extremely difficult to find. A man has to be very, very smart to find her.
But luckily, except for restricting her food after each attempted escape, the kidnapper had not done anything else to her. He was not interested in her physically, nor did he ever be violent.
Zhao Anan simply could not figure out what the man behind this n wanted from her. If it had been for money, he should have made use of the Zhao Family and Jing Yichen. If it had been because of her looks, then he would have done something about it ages ago!
Zhao Anan watched TV in boredom. She thought that if the bodyguard had been a horny man, she could have at least stripped and seduced him to try and sneak away!
But this man must be gay. He did not react to her in any way, no matter how much she tried. That made her really desperate.
As per thetest n, Zhao Anan was nning to grab the phone from the man to try and make a call to her mother.
She would die if she was kept here any further.
She might even die of cancer before she was able to get out of here!
Hey, perverted man! Go and tell your boss that I have got cancer and I will die if I am not treated. I need to get to the hospital as soon as possible!
The man looked at her calmly, and then went back to sleep.
Ha, cancer? What a stupid way to trick me? I am not a three-year-old boy who would believe everything you say!
Seeing that the guy did not respond to her, Zhao Anan got instantly irritated. Why dont you trust me? What I said is true! You can ask your boss to check if I am sick or not. I have been at the edge of death twice.
The muscr guy turned his back towards her as if he were really in deep slumber.
Seeing that the man did not want to talk to her, Zhao Anan sat down next to him and started to nag.
She nagged for more than an hour and eventually got so thirsty that she had to go and drink a few cups of water. After quenching her thirst, she returned to her position to continue nagging.
But the guy had no reaction even after all that torture.
Zhao Anan observed him for a moment, and after ensuring that he was fast asleep, pulled out the phone from his hand.
The cell phone was in her hands, yet the man showed no reaction. He was fast asleep.
Delighted, Zhao Anan pressed the home button to switch the screen on and was startled.
It had a fingerprint lock!
What a sly man!
Zhao Anan red at his sped hands . She wanted to get a knife so that she could cut all his fingers and press them one after another on the screen.
But there was no de in the room, and even if she did find one, she would not be able to cut his fingers.
Irritated, she smashed the phone on the mans body, turned around and went back to the sofa. Sheid curled as she raked her brain for a new idea.
...
Mu Qing had been searching Zhao Anan for a long time now and had been outdoors for so long that his skin was tanned. He had also be distressed and silent.
He had shed many kilos and his features stood out sharply. He looked strong and his hair was short. He was wearing ck jackets and sneakers rather than the light coloured shirts and loafers which he liked to wear so much.
Mu Qing had changed a great deal during these five months. He was like an unsheathed de, sharp and waiting.
He seemed to have be mature and steady, no longer a sunny teenager.
The old Mu Qing used to be as aggressive as Zhao Anan, and the biggest setback he had experienced till now was his breakup with Zhao Anan. He was born in a wealthy family and was a smart kid who had not been through any bitterness till the age of 31.
But during the past five months, he had been through enough disappointments.
He had to deal with many dark forces in the UK, to get their coboration.
Jing Yichens men might be capable, but they were obedient towards Jing Yichen rather than him. Also, he had made mistakes while giving orders.
Mu Qing felt very bad when these men, who had been cultivated by Jing Yichen, died due to Mu Qings instructions.
Tiger had been summoned home by Jing Yichen, and Lee Duo, who was more careful and steadier than Tiger, became Mu Qings partner. But Mu Qing acted more as an assistant to Lee Duo because he discovered Lee Duo to be more professional and intuitive towards the surroundings.
They had managed a good coboration and the loss was reduced tremendously during the past two months.
As per Lee Duos gut feel, he believed that Zhao Anan was still in the UK. So he divided the men into two forces, one searching the unexplored ces and the other to the ces they had already been to.
Although the effectiveness might be reduced, yet it was a more thorough way.
All this while, Mu Qing kept feeling that he was not that far away from Zhao Anan.
Chapter 490 - Baby’s Dad Part One
Chapter 490: Babys Dad Part One
After staying at hospital for two days, Shangguan Ning and Jing Rui were both doing fine.
Post conducting a thorough check up of the mother and son, Mu Xin said with a smile, Shangguan, you dont need to stay at the hospital any more. You can go home with Master Junior now.
Shangguan Ning was really d to hear this. She held her wide eyed son who was blowing bubbles and said gratefully, Thank you so much Xin, if it had not been for your efforts, we would not have been here safe and sound.
Mu Xin yed with Jing Rui and showed a gentle expression. Thats not true. I am a doctor and it is my duty to take care of children and mothers. I like your little baby. He is sure to be a good-looking boy in the future!
She felt that Jing Rui was definitely going to turn into another Jing Yichen. He looked way too much like his father!
And he was not at all like a premature baby. He was energetic and always craving for milk. Luckily, Shangguan Ning had enough milk to feed him now, otherwise he would have been starved.
Mu Xin understood clearly that the reason why Jing Rui was so strong was because of Shangguan Nings physical condition.
Before and during her pregnancy, she had been drinking the golden medicinal wine. That made her strong and fundamentally optimized Jing Ruis body, otherwise Jing Rui would not have been so strong right at birth.
Mu Xin decided that when she got pregnant, she was definitely going to ask her grandpa to give her some of that wine as well.
Jing Yichen had not gone anywhere in the past two days and did nothing else apart from being deeply devoted to his wife and son.
When Mu Xin gave them the permission to go home, he picked up his son, kissed him on the forehead and said, Son, we can go home now!
Sister Lan and Sister Fang packed up their things, and Zhao Zhao handed the hat and scarf to Shangguan Ning to wrap herself in them before going outdoors.
Shangguan Ning couldnt help butin when she saw herself looking like a dumpling. Aunt, this is too much. It is not that cold outside. It is springtime, now. I remember that Princess Kate went to greet the people in a thin dress after she gave birth to the baby. She seemed perfectly fine!
Zhao Zhao regarded Shangguan Ning as her own daughter. So she red at her without caring much. This is what you should do in the first month after childbirth. Foreigners dont know anything! If you dont take care of yourself during the first month, you will surely face problems in the future. When you get old, you will have to suffer a lot. The wind outside is very cold and you should be fully covered so that it doesnt get into your bones!
Aunt Lan echoed. This is true, Lady. It is our tradition that has been passed down from generations. You dont need to wear so many clothes at home, just make sure that you stay warm. But you mustnt go out without proper covering, especially not on your head, otherwise you will get a headache.
Alright, alright, Shangguan Ning said helplessly. It wouldnt hurt to listen to them, except that she felt a bit warm and couldnt move well.
Tiger drove everyone to Landscape Compound. On the way home, Jing Yichen held his son in his arms, and did not want to give him to even Shangguan Ning. After they reached, he kept his sonpany, amusing Shangguan Ning and Zhao Zhao a great deal.
Shangguan Ning was not surprised that Jing Yichen was behaving in this way. In front of her, he had always been a talkative man.
But Zhao Zhao was shocked.
She never knew that her nephew could talk so much.
As far as she could remember, Jing Yichen never liked talking and replied to peoples questions in monosybles.
Jing Yichen was not aware that Shangguan Ning and Zhao Zhao wereughing at him nor would he have cared if he had been aware.
He really loved his son and was enjoying these moments.
Ruirui, say Dad, DAAAAd. Ruirui is going to be as smart as dad. Soon you will be able to talk and your first word will definitely be Dad...
Jing Yichen kept teaching his son how to say Dad by prolonging thest letter.
The little fellow stared at him with a pair of big eyes. He stuffed his fist into his mouth and kicked Jing Yichens face.
Jing Yichen held his sons feet and gently bit them. You want to feed your toes to your father? Call me dad and I will eat them, okay?
Zhao Zhao burst intoughter, deeply amused by her nephew. She just couldnt stopughing.
She pointed at Jing Yichen as she said to Shangguan Ning with a smile, I would never have believed this behaviour of his had I not seen it in person!
Shangguan Ningughed but she was not very surprised.
When she was pregnant, Jing Yichen often spoke with their son in this manner. The only difference was that he was talking a bit more, today.
She understood why Jing Yichen was being so talkative. For one, he had been looking forward to his arrival for a long time, and for another, he wanted to show his love to his son.
Jing Yichen did not receive much fatherly love from Jing Zhongxiu, and they barely talked after Zhao Qings death. He did not want Jing Rui to be like him.
So he started to show his affection towards Jing Rui from the moment he was born. Everyone could tell that he loved his son deeply.
Lying in the bed, Shangguan Ning felt her heart soften at the sight of Jing Yichen who leaned against Jing Ruis bed and yed with him.
Jing Zhongxiu came to visit them the day after they came home.
It was the first time for Jing Zhongxiu to visit since the babys birth. Shangguan Ning wanted to get off the bed but Zhao Zhao pressed her down. Mr. Jing is not an outsider, no need to be too polite. Just lie still! You are not allowed to get off the bed until a couple of days. You will get pain in your legs if you are out of the bed too often.
Shangguan Ning wanted to protest that she was not that spoiled when she saw Zhao Zhaos expressions and stopped herself from saying anything more.
She could tell that Zhao Zhao still held grudges against Jing Zhongxiu. Zhao Qing was her only sister, and she died because of another womans involvement with Jing Zhongxiu.
Jing Zhongxiu knew what Zhao Zhao thought of him. He felt very guilty facing her so he did not respond to her or me Shangguan Ning for not getting up from the bed.
He had stayed away for this long from the baby because he was aware of Zhao Zhaos presence there. He tried to avoid it because her presence always made him ufortable.
But he just couldnt stand it any more. He had not seen the face of his grandson even after four days of him being born!
Chapter 491 - Baby’s Dad Part Two
Chapter 491: Babys Dad Part Two
Without caring about the sharp look from Zhao Zhao anymore, Jing Zhongxiu came to stand beside Jing Rui. He coughed hard seeing that Jing Yichen was refusing to make space for him.
Yichen, move from here. Let me talk with my grandson for a while.
Jing Yichen had to leave unwillingly when he was interrupted by Jing Zhongxiu. He had not spent enough time with his son yet.
But Jing Zhongxiu did not bother about his sons expression. He only had eyes for the little fellow lying on the bed.
The baby had long eyshes and big eyes. His hair was thick, and snowy skin just like polished jade. He looked exactly how Jing Yichen did when he was little.
This was Jing Zhongxius grandson, so cute!
Jing Zhongxiu stared at him for a long time. Then he took his grandsons hand and bit it gently. He couldnt conceal his delight.
Jing Ruis wide eyes followed Jing Zhongxiu as if he knew that he was his grandpa. Jing Zhongxiu was amused andughed out loud.
He carefully picked up Jing Rui from the bed. He was a bit clumsy, but behaved very gently. He used the long forgotten posture to hold the baby, despite his stiff arms. He was trying to make sure that his grandson was in afortable position.
Seeing his son being picked up by Jing Zhongxiu, Jing Yichen was extremely displeased.
What was he doing? What if Jing Rui fell? Jing Zhongxiu did not look like someone who could hold children well. He was stiff and worse skilled than him! Jing Rui couldnt possibly befortable in his arms.
Jing Yichen was concerned about his sonsfort. He said calmly, Dad, give him back to me. I am better at holding the child than you are. Any other baby would cry if you hold him in this way. It is just that my son is really docile.
Jing Zhongxiu got displeased instantly and red at him. I can make himfortable too. Dont you see how happy my grandson is? You will have the chance to hold Jing Rui every single day. Why must you take him from me right now, useless brat!
Shangguan Ning did not find it weird to see Jing Zhongxiu hold Jing Rui in his arms. Actually, she was very happy because Jing Zhongxius affection for the little fellow was apparent and it made her feel relieved.
He might be a bit clumsy, but he was doing it with his best intentions.
Shangguan Ning suspected that he must have held Jing Yichen numerous times when he was young and knew how to hold the baby. But he would be clumsy after thirty years of no practice.
She wanted Jing Rui to get close with Jing Zhongxiu. He was the babys grandpa, and had every right to cherish him.
She did not want Jing Zhongxiu to be aloof with Jing Rui. Nor did she want Jing Rui to grow up to be someone who talked with his grandfather in a formal manner. It would be great if the grandpa and grandson could get on well with each other. Love should be cultivated when the child is young. Looking at them, there was no doubt that Jing Zhongxiu would love his grandson unconditionally.
Zhao Zhao standing next to them, was very nervous. She feared that the clumsy Jing Zhongxiu would drop Jing Rui or make him ufortable.
But she had the same idea as Shangguan Ning. She also hoped that Jing Zhongxiu could spend more time with Jing Rui. At least, he should not treat Jing Rui as strictly as he treated Jing Yichen.
Therefore, Zhao Zhao did not stop Jing Zhongxiu from holding Jing Rui.
Jing Yichen got even more displeased after being lectured by Jing Zhongxiu.
He might not be as experienced or capable as Jing Zhongxiu in other aspects but he thought that he was better than him in rearing a child.
It is the wrong position for him! You shouldnt get both the arms up. You should wrap them around him. He is too young to be held so stiffly. You should wrap the hands alongside his body...
Jing Yichen kept nagging. Jing Zhongxiu was about to protest by saying that he had held Jing Yichen so many times when he was a baby and that he was experienced, when he found those words would not be in line with his image as a strict father. So he stopped himself from saying anything more.
Seeing the two of them standing next to each other and trying to get hold of Jing Rui, Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. Sheughed even more when she heard these men praising the four-day old baby.
Honestly, she also thought that her son was the best looking child in the entire world, yet she couldnt help but feel proud when she heard how the father and son praised him.
My son looks so much like me. He is definitely going to be very handsome in the future!
Jing Yichen had never been modest about his appearance. Shangguan Ning also supported him by saying that their son would be as good-looking as he was.
But Jing Zhongxiu had been used to giving his son a brow beating. He snapped when he couldnt stand his arrogance. Your son will be much better-looking than you when he grows up. He will be as handsome as I was in my younger days. He will definitely get a great wife in the future. Maybe even the princesses of royal pces would beg to marry my grandson!
Jing Yichen almost passed out after hearing such words.
He had never seen Jing Zhongxiu being so arrogant like right now!
But Jing Yichen was pleased that he was talking about Jing Rui and also agreed that his son would exceed him in the future.
He wanted to take his son back from his father, but Jing Zhongxiu dodged him nimbly. He took two steps backwards and lowered his head to kiss the tender grandson.
Dad, you have a beard, it will sting him.
Nonsense! I shaved before I came here. My cheeks are soft.
Jing Ruis face is too tender. Stop ruining his face.
Shut up, I adore my grandson.I will not ruin his face. Stop talking rubbish.
Jing Zhongxiu rubbed Jing Ruis face with his chin.
The tickling feeling made Jing Rui smile at Jing Zhongxiu. He looked lovely when his toothless gums were disyed.
Jing Zhongxiu got extremely happy. He showed off to Jing Yichen by saying, Look, my grandson is smiling at me. He adores me!
Jing Yichen found that it was true.
He gave up arguing with Jing Zhongxiu. His sons smile was what delighted him most of all. Nothing was more important. But then he couldnt take it the next minute.
Son, let me hold you, I can amuse you too... Jing Yichen pped his hands to attract Jing Ruis attention and threw a proud look at Jing Zhongxiu when he saw Jing Rui shifting his gaze towards him.
Shangguan Ning shook her head when the father and the son were behaving like small children.
Shangguan Ning had never expected that her husband would have be a baby himself rather than the babys dad!
Chapter 492 - To Live or Die Part One
Chapter 492: To Live or Die Part One
Jing Rui was still a little baby. After getting excited for a while, he fell asleep in Jing Zhongxius arms.
He was an obedient child except when he was hungry. He did not wail or make noise. He was simply adorable. Zhao Zhao kept saying that Jing Rui was a good boy and that she had never seen such a docile boy in her life. She said that Zhao Anan had been quite noisy when she was young. She always wanted to be fed and even after being fed, she still made noise. She always kept worrying people.
Jing Zhongxiu also thought that his grandson was very well-behaved, and his affection for Jing Rui increased multifold.
Seeing his grandson nestled in his arms, he felt his heart turn into a puddle. He wanted to keep holding him forever.
He had apletely different attitude towards his grandson whenpared to his son. He thought that it had been necessary to be strict towards Jing Yichen. But he hesitated when he had Jing Rui in his arms.
He was concerned that he wouldnt be able to treat Jing Rui in the same way that he had treated Jing Yichen.
Reluctant, Jing Zhongxiu ced Jing Rui back on the bed and suggested that Jing Yichen shoulde with him to the studyroom.
Father and son sat down in the study and immediately their rxed expressions were gone.
Dont worry about Jing Yiran. I will punish him this time.
Jing Zhongxiu felt guilty towards his son.
Jing Yiran always did extreme things, and even dared to kidnap Shangguan Ning in her pregnant stage because of which she and Jing Rui almost died.
If he had not shown mercy to Jing Yiran all this while, Jing Rui and Shangguan Ning would not have run into such a huge danger.
He owed Jing Yiran nothing now.
In fact, no one owed anything to Jing Yiran, neither Jing Yichen nor Shangguan Ning and definitely not Jing Rui.
The deration has not been acquired yet. It must be in Yang Muyans hands. But she doesnt want to admit that she has it in her possession. If we kill her now, we wont get it back so we have to let her live for the time being.
Yang Muyan would never hand over the deration even if her life was threatened. She must have given it to someone else, so that even if she died, that person could publicise it.
There was no legal binding to give up rights of inheritance by using such derations but this had been a tradition in the big families, so it could cause sensation.
However, ording to the customs, such a deration was only credible when the heir announced it himself. The public would always suspect the authenticity of the deration if it was announced by someone else.
Jing Yichen thought for a while and said, Deration is not important. Even if I give up the rights of inheritance, Jing Rui would be the next heir instead of anyone else!
Jing Zhongxiu suddenly felt his perspective shift. He brightened up.
True, Jing Yichen had written the deration before Jing Rui was born, so when he gave up the rights of inheritance, no one was avable to inherit the Jing Family. But now, he had the rights even though he was just a small baby.
Jing Zhongxiu was healthy and strong at the moment, so he could take over the family affairs. When Jing Rui grew up, he would head the Jing Family, anyway.
Even if the deration came into effect, Jing Yichen would not be affected. Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan could always give Jing Yichen the enormous properties of the Jing Family in secret.
Jing Yichen no longer cared if he would inherit the Jing Family.
Previously, he kept his eyes on the right of inheritance to keep Jing Yiran away because he thought that everything of the Jing Family should belong to him. Jing Yiran was an outsider, a child born out of wedlock, who should not inherit anything from the Jing Family.
Now that Jing Zhongxiu had thrown Jing Yiran out of the family, he had no excuse to touch anything of theirs, any more.
As long as the properties of the Jing Family were not given to Jing Yiran, Jing Yichen would not be affected if he was not the heir.
Everything would be passed down to Jing Rui!
Dad, it doesnt matter if the deration is announced. All it would mean is that you will have to step forward to deal with family affairs. I will definitely gain back the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise, but I must rify one important thing to you here.
Jing Zhongxiu was more or less aware of what he was about to say. Without changing his expression, he said calmly, Spill it.
He has broken the boundary and now there is no need to keep my oath. I cant allow him to live any longer!
He was referring to Jing Yiran.
Jing Yichen never informed Jing Zhongxiu of whatever he nned to do, and would always do as per his will. He had always hated Jing Yiran and wished him dead, not because Zhang Rong had caused Zhao Qings death, but because Jing Yiran had caused Jing Yichen too much harm, time and again.
Jing Zhongxiu looked at his mature son, whom he loved above all and on whom he had spent all his life cultivating him. He was proud of him, he was an excellent man now!
He did not stop Jing Yichen any more. Instead, he showed a calm smile. You have never been hesitant about what you n to do, and you always know what you want. Do whatever you wish to. Jing Yiran is not my son any more.
Jing Yiran had be a man with no bottomline, and letting him live would cause endless trouble.
Jing Zhongxiu used to let go of whatever Jing Yiran did earlier but he could not tolerate that Jing Yiran even thought about harming Jing Rui!
Jing Rui was just a baby, who had no way of defending himself. Jing Rui would be in constant danger if Jing Yiran wanted to take revenge.
So, he better die.
Jing Yichen had been prepared that Jing Zhongxiu would turn down his idea and that he would kill Jing Yiran, anyway. Unexpectedly, however, Jing Zhongxiu supported him.
It seemed that whatever Jing Yiran did, had hurt Jing Zhongxiu deeply.
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief.
He did not want to turn against Jing Zhongxiu because their rtionship had just started to improve and they were getting on well with each other, with respect and love between them, like an ordinary father and son.
Jing Yichen didnt realize how deeply his father loved him until he became a father himself!
He did not want to cut off this rtionship and it was because of this reason that he had been worried about upsetting Jing Zhongxiu.
Chapter 493 - To Live or Die Part Two
Chapter 493: To Live or Die Part Two
Jing Zhongxiu held two different attitudes towards Jing Yiran and Jing Yichen in his heart.
That had something to do with their mothers. Zhao Qing had been the only wife whom Jing Zhongxiu ever epted. He and Zhang Rong were not a real couple. The only reason why he tolerated Zhang Rong for all of these years was because of Jing Yirans existence. He had made a hugepromise for that son of his.
Jing Zhongxiu had, on many asions, wanted to kill Zhang Rong so as to take revenge for his wife. But even if Zhang Rong was killed, Zhao Qing could note back to life. That would also make Jing Yiran motherless and he might hate his whole family while growing up.
However, even though Jing Zhongxiu had allowed Zhang Rong to stay alive, Jing Yiran still hated the Jing Family.
And this kind of hatred reached its peak when Zhang Rong died.
Jing Zhongxiu spoke coldly when he thought of Zhang Rong. I have found out the cause of Zhang Rongs death. It was a trap set by Yang Muyan. She is very good at creating misunderstandings. You dont need to care about the Ji Family any more. Even if it means a war with them, you must kill this woman before she causes more damage.
Jing Yichen nodded. Okay, I understand.
He had also not nned to let Yang Muyan stay alive, as well. Even if he killed Yang Muyan now, there would not be any conflicts arising between the two families because Ji Bo had already sought refuge with him.
I have ordered Lu to keep an eye on Jing Yiran, and he has been told about the cause of his mothers death. If you want to get the shares back, go and find Lu.
Okay, I will do so in a couple of days.
Jing Yichen was not in a hurry to get the shares back, because Jing Yiran was not in a status of interfering with the normal operations of Jingsheng Enterprise. He could let him stay alive for two more days.
He wanted to spend several more days with Shangguan Ning and the child. Shangguan Ning had been in a weak state after childbirth. She had lost a lot of energy and needed to rest.
Jing Yiran would not be able to escape anyway.
...
At Jing Yirans small vi, Lu passed on Jing Zhongxius message to him.
Your mother was killed by Yang Muyan. She purposefully arranged the death in the same way as Mrs. Jings death, so that you could think that Jing Yichen was the culprit and you both could turn against each other. She is indeed smart to be able to use your biggest weakness.
Lu sounded very calm, because she had nothing to do with either Zhang Rong or Zhao Qing. She was just Jing Zhongxius hitwoman. Also, she had no emotions or sense of love.
You both have been at each others throats for a long time. All that Yang Muyan did was to add hot oil to the me, otherwise you would not have broken up with the Jing Family at such a high speed. I always thought that you are brainless, but what I had not expected was that you could be so stupid that you fell into the trap of a woman! After you got tricked by her, you tried to hit Jing Yichen like a crazy dog and fought against the Jing Family. You were an idiot for giving up the cozy days!
You are lying! Jing Yiran groaned furiously as hey in bed like a mummy.
He had been heavily beaten by Lu and wrapped up in ayer of bandage so that he couldnt move even a finger. Lu tormented him because he refused to go and fetch the contract from the bank.
Jing Yiran was indeed a strong being who would not die even after so much torture.
Lu threw a look at Jing Yiran whose veins were popping out on the forehead and snorted. What is in it for me if I lie to you? You are a dead man anyway. I am just telling you the truth. Dont you think that you are ridiculous to have coborated with Yang Muyan and be her ve? She is Jing Familys worst enemy and you dared to work with her? So dumb-headed! Your mother would have jumped out of the coffin and strangled you to death if she knew that you share such a great rtionship with Yang Muyan!
Jing Yiran just couldnt stand it any more. If he could move right now, he would definitely beat Lu until she copsed!
Jing Yichen sent you here, right?! He killed my mother and has no way to escape the me. I am not Yang Muyans enemy and my mother was not her enemy either. They did not even know each other. She would have found a better scapegoat rather than someone who had no connection with her. You are the one who is stupid. Do you think that everyone else is stupid too?!
Jing Yiran did not believe that Zhang Rong would have been killed by Yang Muyan, because Zhang Rong had a very narrow socialwork and she barely went out of the house after she got married to Jing Zhongxiu. Her circle was so small that no matter how many people she knew, she couldnt possibly have known Yang Muyan.
Hahahaha...
Jing Yiranughed wildly as heid in bed. He sounded mocking yet miserable andughed until he got hoarse.
Jing Zhongxiu sent you here to pass on these words, or maybe Jing Yichen did? They are using you and you are working for them like a worthless bodyguard. Wont I know how my own mother died? Jing Yichen is trying to kill Yang Muyan through me. I am not going to fall for this trap!
Lu stared at Jing Yiran in astonishment after hearing his furious usations.
She stared at him as if she was looking at an idiot.
You have truly overestimated yourself. I guess I overestimated you, too. I work for the Jing Family, because I owe a lot to Jing Zhongxiu. You dont need to worry about me being a ve to them!
Lu came to Jing Yirans bedside and sat down with a sharp de in her hand. She let the tip of the de slip over his extremely handsome face.
No blood gushed, but the cold tip of it made him shiver involuntarily.
I had thought that you were an idiot, but it seems that you are worse than an idiot. You are a dead man. There is no need for me to lie to you! Jing Zhongxiu just wanted you to know the truth before your life ends. You have underestimated him!
A touch of respect shed across her eyes as Lu thought of Jing Zhongxius ability. Then she asked in a mocking tone, Also, you said that they wanted to use you to kill Yang Muyan? That is probably the biggest joke of this century!
She had been having fun torturing Jing Yiran in the past two days. She got quite pleased when she saw his twisted face, so she started to talk more than usual.
Chapter 494 - To Live or Die Part Three
Chapter 494: To Live or Die Part Three
Wont it work better and faster if I kill Yang Muyan? I am pretty good at killing people, and my sess rate is 99.9%!
Lu took out a dart from the pocket and tossed it without even looking at it. The dartnded in the middle of the wall several meters away and the clock on the wall dropped on the ground with a loud sound.
The dart had hit the nail on which the clock was hung, and the force made the nail embed deeply into the wall, making the clock drop onto the floor.
Jing Yiran was seriously injured, yet he could still move his head. He got frightened when he saw the scene.
Lu was so... skillful!
Lu had no change of expression after showing off her ability. Instead, she said coldly, Also, given your current status, Yang Muyan might be the one that kills you if you show up in front of her, now. She is not as stupid as you are, and when she finds you in this weak state, she would kill you with just one stab of the de.
Jing Yiran looked at her mockingly. He still did not believe that Zhang Rong was killed by Yang Muyan.
Lu did not care if Jing Yiran believed her or not. What she needed to do was to pass on what she was asked to.
Jing Zhongxiu said that Yang Muyan had not only killed your mother but also Jing Yichens men who protected Tang Yun in the USA. Then she made you take the me so that Jing Yichen could hate you. But Jing Yichen was smarter than you. He was not trapped in her.
Jing Yiran did have some thoughts about what Lu had just mentioned.
At that time, he had suspected that Jing Yichens men were killed by Ji Bos men, butter, he realised that Yang Muyan might have been the culprit and that Ji Bo was simply aware of what had happened.
Jing Yiran knew how far Yang Muyan could go, so he listened in silence when Lu mentioned this.
Seeing that he was not protesting, Lu realized that he had been aware of the truth regarding this matter.
This is rare. I thought that your brain was filled with shit, but it seems that you can think sometimes.
Jing Yiran stayed silent. He was used to being scolded by Lu and had experienced how mean Lu could get verbally. If he swore back at Lu, he would get meaner words in return.
Ah, I forgot. Your fiance, Shen Lingbing was also poisoned to death by Yang Muyan, otherwise you would have gotten married by now with a wife restraining you, making you smarter and keeping you alive. But Shen Lingbings death had a great deal to do with you as well. If you had not drugged her in the first ce, Yang Muyan might not have had the opportunity to use that method to kill her.
Startled, Jing Yiran shouted with eyes widely opened. Thats impossible!
Even if he said so, he had already somehow known this.
The cause of Shen Lingbings death had not been revealed till now. He had been investigating the cause for a long time just to get to the identity of the suspect, but the clues were lost after pointing at servants of the Shen Family and that made it impossible for him to go on with the investigation.
Although the murderer was not found, Jing Yiran knew Jing Yichen could not have killed Shen Lingbing.
Because that would not benefit anyone in the Jing Family. More so, Jing Yichen had been the one who picked Shen Lingbing. If he had picked the Shen Family, it basically meant that the Shen Family must be a loyal follower of them, one that would be under their control. The alliance would have been advantageous for both sides.
This meant that the benefit from Shen Lingbings death would have gone to Family Jings rival, either Ji Family or Yang Muyan.
No one else would have the ability to drug and kill thedy of the Shen Family without leaving any trace in such a cunning way.
Ji Family were not that smart or capable. The only person who could be so sinister was none other than Yang Muyan, the maniac.
Oh my god, she must really be thirsting for revenge. I wonder who will be her next target? Oh yes, her next target must have been Shangguan Ning, but she failed the mission, because Shangguan Ning was lucky and survived. You are so stupid that you are being used by that woman in such a thorough way and you still have not be aware of the conspiracy!
Lus cold voice echoed in Jing Yirans ears. After listening to all the facts put together, he started having doubts about Zhang Rongs death for the first time.
Could his mother really have been framed and killed by Yang Muyan?
It was indeed how Yang Muyan would have done it.
She sets traps and makes others take the me without leaving a trace!
No, he must not trust Lu so easily. She talked so much today only because she was trying to confuse him so that he could suspect Yang Muyan.
He must not get tricked so easily!
But no matter how much he fought the notion, he started to suspect Yang Muyan.
Jing Yiran would not ignore anyone who could be a suspect. Zhang Rong was his mother, no matter what she had been like, she was the only one who cared about him except for Mo Lan. He was definitely going to take revenge for her as a son.
If only he could escape from Lu, he would go and find Yang Muyan and get back that deration. Then he would interrogate her to find out the truth.
Lu did not care about what Jing Yiran was thinking. All she wanted was to get back the contract!
After all, it had been her mistake that put Shangguan Ning in danger, and even if it had been her other version who did it, they shared the same body. The other Lu might be innocent, yet she was an adult, and she must take responsibility for her deeds.
Jing Yiran, if you refuse to hand out the contract, I will use my worst method. I can drain out your blood so you be a real mummy. What do you think?
Jing Yiran shivered!
Lu had an angel-like face but she talked like a monster.
Why had Lu been like this for four days in a row? Where was the innocent and kind Lu?
There was no threat in his house. It was very safe here. The other Lu should havee out by now!
Chapter 495 - Approach of Death Part One
Chapter 495: Approach of Death Part One
He wished that the monster in front of him could fall asleep forever and nevere out ever again.
Jing Yiran did not know what triggered her split personality. As per his understanding, when the environment was steady and non-threatening, Lu would turn into her innocent version and the moment that there was a sense of danger, the devious Lu would surface.
But there was another situation when the softer Lu would remain hidden. That was when the scent of blood was in the air because the innocent Lu was afraid of blood.
As long as there was blood around, the stern Lu would stay awake, because she was familiar with the smell of blood, even though she detested it the most.
During the past few days, Lu kept injuring Jing Yiran causing him to bleed, otherwise in a peaceful environment like this, she would have been easily suppressed by the other Lu and then Jing Yiran would have taken advantage of the situation.
But Jing Yiran did not know this fact. He had no idea when the other Lu would appear and could not entrust his hope upon the innocent Lu anymore.
He knew that he must not give Lu the contract, because he would be killed instantly.
Luckily, he had made preparations, otherwise he would have been killed directly on spot.
Jing Yiran knew Jing Yichen well and by now, he also understood what Shangguan Ning meant to Jing Yichen.
Now that Shangguan Ning and their son had almost lost their lives, Jing Yichen would definitely not let him live anymore.
Mo Lan, the only person who could keep him safe, was gone too. She had not visited him during these days. It was possible that she was still unconscious after being knocked out by Lu or she had been trapped by Jing Yichen.
Go on then, go on torturing me! If I am dead, Jing Yichen will not be able to get either the contract or the deration. I have written a will and when I am dead, the shares will automatically be transferred to someone else. That person would be able to get the contract from the bank and Jingsheng Enterprise will go to someone else. You can kill me if you dont believe me!
Lu stared at Jing Yiran as if she did not know who he was, at all.
When she was not talking, herrge, sparking eyes and her rosy lips made her look lovely. Her baby-white skin and her palm-sized face made the appearance irresistible.
Jing Yiran had been tricked by her face too many times for him to trust her anymore. A normal man would want to take such a girl into his arms and adore her.
But being stared at by Lu made Jing Yirans hair stand up. He was scared that she woulde up with some vicious idea to torment him.
Why are you looking at me in this way? Stay away from me. I am a man, even if you dont want to be a woman!
Lu knew Jing Yiran was a man with some brain and would have established a backup before he took a big risk. When she heard him talking about men and women, she lowered her head and looked at his manhood.
She moved the knife in her hands from Jing Yirans face slowly down to the ce that was bulging. She poked it with the tip of the de and said calmly, One stab, and you will not be a man any more!
The stinging pain in his penis startled Jing Yiran so badly that he started to sweat. He was really scared of this monster!
No, no, I am sorry, I was wrong! You are a great woman, the prettiest woman in the world! I am not a man, dont be reckless! It is all my fault!
Jing Yiran knew when to bow down and when to stand. Seeing that the situation was not going his way, he apologized instantly.
Lu wanted to make a couple of more cuts upon Jing Yirans body so that she could stay awake with the smell of blood.
But her phone rang. It was from Jing Yichen.
She stood up instantly and went far where Jing Yiran could not hear the conversation. Then she picked up the phone.
Without saying much, she hung up and came to Jing Yirans side and started ying with the de.
Lu reported the situation to Jing Zhongxiu every single day. She was aware that Jing Yiran was now at the mercy of Jing Yichen. That was to say, Jing Yichen was going to determine whether or not Jing Yiran should die.
She threw a look at Jing Yiran and said calmly, You really are going to die this time.
Lu sounded weird this time, and her tone reflected grief. That made Jing Yiran very ufortable.
The evil always remains! I am evil. I can not die that easily!
Jing Yiran bellowed loudly to cover up his unease.
...
Two dayster, on a drizzling spring afternoon, Jing Yichen arrived.
He was dressed in an expensive hand-made ck colour suit, a white shirt, a pair of ck shoes and wore a serious and lethal expression.
The whole get-up made him look noble and elegant.
Jing Yiran got furious at the sight of Jing Yichen.
He had never ceased fighting with Jing Yichen, and never managed to beat him in any way till date.
Jing Zhongxiu favored him, simply because he was his son. He was not as capable as Jing Yichen because he had never been trained. But why was he even worse in appearance than Jing Yichen?
He was obviously more charming and attractive to women. But why did Jing Yichen look so charismatic even in such in clothes?
God adored Jing Yichen way too much!
Jing Yiran hated that he had to lie here wrapped up in bandages like a corpse.
He should have been standing in front of Jing Yichen, not lying down helplessly.
He wanted to confront Jing Yichen dressed in a date-red custom-made suit, wearing a pair of shiny shoes and surrounded by a fragrant air of arrogance. Unfortunately, he was currently without any clothes and the air around him was full of Jing Yichens disdainful look.
He must not die in such a demeaning way!
Jing Yichen threw a calm look at Jing Yiran, and approached his bedside slowly.
Chapter 496 - Approach of Death Part Two
Chapter 496: Approach of Death Part Two
The view outside the window looked dark, with clouds covering the sun. It was like the dusk after sunset, the dawn before the sunrise.
The rain was getting heavier, and soon the drizzle turned into a storm.
The wind seemed to be roaring, as if singing an elegy for someones impending death.
A white lightning struck across the sky, brightening the entire area. The brightness disappeared within a second, and the sky was swallowed by darkness. The sound of thundering arose and it seemed as if the entire earth was shivering.
Jing Yichen threw a look outside the window and said in a lethal voice, It is thest day of your life in this world. You should have died ages ago, but father never allowed me to touch you. Now you can say yourst words.
Jing Yirans eyes reflected confidence. You are not going to kill me. The shares will go to someone else if you do so. You will never be able to get them. Jingsheng Enterprise will belong to someone else after my death, so I suggest that you treat me well, otherwise you will regret what you have done.
Jing Yichen looked down at Jing Yiran who was in a mess. He said with an arrogant voice, Anyone who dares to take Jingsheng Enterprises shares will end up dead. The next person will have a worse ending than you do. I do not care who will take over Jingsheng Enterprise, because I can take it back from whoever that has it. So, Jingsheng Enterprise does not matter. What matters, is that you are no longer allowed to live.
Jing Yichen took out a ck pistol from his pocket and aimed at Jing Yirans head.
Done with yourst words? Then it is time for you to go.
Jing Yiran could tell that Jing Yichen simply could not wait to kill him.
He bellowed furiously, I did kidnap Shangguan Ning, but I did not push her off the bridge. It was Yang Muyans man who did that. You can just go and kill her.
Maybe because Jing Yiran was on the verge of dying, Jing Yichen was more patient with him than usual. He answered him back evenly.
I do not need your reminder. Yang Muyan will die very soon anyway. You can keep each otherpany in hell. As for the man who pushed Ning off the bridge, he is already waiting for you there. Anyone who hurts my wife and child will not be allowed to live!
Lu stared at the brothers who were in a face-off. She felt a touch of misery when she saw Jing Yichen aiming at Jing Yiran.
But she knew that Jing Yiran was definitely going to die today, and even though she had injured him badly, Jing Yichen was not going to spare his life.
She had thought that Jing Yichen would not kill him, when he was so badly injured, and would wait for him to get better.
But Jing Yichen didnt care about anything except for his hatred towards Jing Yiran. He simply wanted to get rid of this dangerous man.
He had waited seven days beforeing to end his life, and that was the maximum he could do.
Jing Yichen did not care about shares, derations or properties. All he cared about was his wife and child for whom he could do anything.
Jing Yichen sensed Lus look. He said to her, Your service has cancelled out your sin. From today on, leave the Jing Family, and never return.
Lu got slightly startled. She looked at Jing Yichen with herrge eyes and then lowered her head before saying in a dry voice, Okay, I will leave.
She knew that Jing Yichen was furious about her letting Shangguan Ning fall into Jing Yirans hands. The reason why he did not kill her was because she had done a great deal for Family Jing and also because she was not able to control the two versions of herself.
But she was a potential hidden danger and Jing Yichen could not keep her around anymore.
Or maybe Jing Yichen had already discovered where her heartid. She had been taking care of Jing Yiran. Maybe Jing Yichen had noticed it, although Jing Yiran knew nothing about it.
She was not a qualified bodyguard any longer.
Jing Yiran got startled. He had not expected that Jing Yichen would not even spare Lu!
He bellowed at Jing Yichen, You are lethal and ruthless! I forced Lu to do whatever she did. She did not help me out of her own ord. Where would she go if you throw her out?
I have told you enough times that I will never show any mercy towards anyone who hurt my wife and child. Lu knows what she has done and I am already being kind by not killing her!
Jing Yichen stared at Jing Yiran with a cold look and said calmly, Why do you care about anyone else? I never knew that you were such a just man. If you are so close to each other, then Lu can die with you.
Jing Yiran took a deep breath. He pressed down his anger and said what were supposed to be hisst words. He did not panic anymore.
I have nothing to do with Lu. She would not have tortured me to such a degree if we were friends. You can kill us all, Tiger, your men, so you are the only one who remains in the entire world.
How do you know that she was not being kind to you to have tortured you like this?
Jing Yichens words startled both Lu and Jing Yiran.
Nonsense! She tortured me because she was forcing me to hand out the shares.
Jing Yichen threw a calm look at Lus pale face, and showed a lethal smile. Oh, really?
She may not have known how badly I wanted to kill you. Maybe she thought that if you are disabled, I will not kill you. Unfortunately, she overestimated my merciful side. My mother will rest in peace now when both you and your mother are dead!Jing Yichen said as he was about to pull the trigger.
Jing Yiran suddenly bellowed. Wait!
Jing Yichen asked coldly, What more do you have to say?
Jing Yiran stared at him with bloodied eyes, then he started tough wildly. After a minute, he spoke carefully. I have one more person with me whom you might be interested in.
Who is it?
Zhao Anan!
Chapter 497 - Jing Yiran’s Death
Chapter 497: Jing Yirans Death
Jing Yichen was startled when he heard Zhao Anans name, but he did not put the gun down.
He looked very cold, but spoke in a calm way, So it was you who took Zhao Anan away. Good, there is one more reason for you to die now.
Jing Yichen, if you dare to kill me, Zhao Anan will die with me. Think before you shoot!
Jing Yiran sounded extremely determined. He was worried that Jing Yichen did not catch what he said, so he repeated it, Zhao Anan was imprisoned by me in the UK. I gave her food and a ce to live in. I have not touched even a single hair of her body. You can talk with her right now and ask how she is doing. But if you kill me now, I can guarantee that Zhao Anan will not only die a terrible death but also get utterly humiliated before she dies.
As long as I am safe, and your men stop following me, I will release Zhao Anan. This is my condition. If you want your cousin alive, you better listen to what I am saying.
Jing Yichens expression did not change. He just stared at Jing Yiran and said, You are in no position to negotiate with me. I have told you that today is thest day of your life and nothing will change that.
Jing Yiran got furious. He said in disbelief, You dont care about Zhao Anan? If I die, she dies too. You will have a difficult time handling your aunt!
Why should I care if Zhao Anan is alive or not? Jing Yichen showed a mocking smile and sounded nonchnt.
She asked for it. If she wanted to run away from home, it serves her right that she is caught and beaten to death. Why would I be bothered to save such an idiot? Also, isnt it better if she dies? I can inherit everything from the Zhao Family then?
Jing Yirans eyes widened suddenly as if some other version of Jing Yichen was standing in front of him. He pointed his shivering finger at Jing Yichen, without being able to say a single word.
In fact, I should thank you for telling me such a huge secret before you die, otherwise I would have never known who took away that nuisance. Now, all is solved, and I can kill you without any burden and I can also bury Zhao Anan with your help. This is an excellent situation. Thank you for doing such a good deed before your death.
Jing Yiran got extremely startled at what Jing Yichen said, so did Lu. She felt that something weird was going on with Jing Yichen, but couldnt tell what was it.
Jing Yichen did not treat Zhao Anan as well as Shangguan Ning, but Zhao Anan was his only cousin and he had been taking great care of her all this time. When Zhao Anans cancer returnedst year, he spared no efforts to arrange the doctors and hospital for her. He regarded her almost like his real sister. What had made him turn so distant at this moment?
You are out of your mind, Jing Yichen! Jing Yiran bellowed furiously.
This couldnt be happening. It was impossible! Jing Yichen should have cared a great deal about Zhao Anan. It was impossible for him to watch Zhao Anan die without doing anything about it.
Jing Yirans whole body was trembling now.
He had lost hisst bargaining chip!
Since when did Jing Yichen turn so ruthless?
He would rather give up the inheritance rights, Jingsheng Enterprises shares and his cousins life just because he wanted to kill him?!
Was it true that he was going to die today?
He was not convinced! He was not convinced even on the verge of death!
The room was deadly silent. It felt as if Jing Yichen would pull the trigger the very next second and Jing Yiran would die.
Jing Yiran turned pale. The misery and fear of his uing death almost suffocated him.
Waiting was a long and painful process, especially waiting for ones death.
Jing Yiran felt that blood was gushing out of the wounds on his body and the recently cured injury seemed to have burst open at this moment.
He might die even without Jing Yichens bullet.
For an unknowingly long time, he felt that he had lost all the meaning of being alive.
His pupils had lost focus when he saw a bullet aimed at the centre of his head.
Next moment, the bullet hit him, and soon he lost all awareness and the feeling of pain.
The loud sound of thunder covered the guns sound, but the smell of blood could not be concealed.
Jing Yichen waited for Jing Yirans heart to stop beating.
Ten minutester, Jing Yiran was gone from the world in the true sense. Jing Yichen turned his gaze from Jing Yirans handsome, pale face and looked out of the window at the raging storm.
He said to Lu who looked equally pale, Angel, you owe nothing to Family Jing, and Family Jing owes you nothing, now. My fathers message for you C you must get out of A City and this country today itself. You are now allowed to step on thisnd for as long as you live.
Lu stood up slowly as she replied in a dry voice. I ept it.
Hearing her response, Jing Yichen looked at her, turned around and walked out.
Outside the vi, the storm had broken all the shrubs in the garden.
Jing Yichens tall figure was gradually enveloped by the storm but he did not cease his steps despite beingpletely soaked.
Tiger opened the cars door instantly as he saw Jing Yichening out of the vi. He rushed towards him with an umbre.
Watch out for the heavy rain, Master. Dont catch a cold!
Jing Yichen replied calmly. Doesnt matter. Get in the car, lets go home.
He was just going to open the cars door when Jing Yichens phone rang in his pocket.
He took out the phone in a hurry, and ced it over his ear.
Lee Duos hoarse yet excited voice came from the other side, Master, Lady Cousin is well now. She is not injured, just extremely hungry. Doctor Mu is giving her the infusion!
Chapter 498 - Mu Qings Love
Chapter 498: Mu Qings Love
Jing Yichen let out a long sigh of relief and said calmly, Keep her well fed and dont allow her to run away again! Better tie her up. You do it if Mu Qing feels reluctant to.
Lee Duo replied with augh and asked, Master, should we goe back home now?
Yes, instantly!
Jing Yichen had just finished speaking when Mu Qings voice arose on the other side of the phone. He said with displeasure, Master Jing, you are a cruel man! Anan is really low on energy and needs to rest for some time.
Jing Yichen got furious by what Mu Qing said. He sat in the car and replied in a cold voice while epting the towel from Tiger to wipe the water. Serves her right! Did I tell her to run away? Did I imprison her? Did I starve her? Why do you think I want to bring you both back as soon as possible? I want you to get registered as a couple. Now also you think that I am ruthless?
Mu Qing had apparently not paid attention to this matter.
Startled, he said in a low voice, Master Jing, I have thought it through. I will not force Anan any more. I put too much pressure on her and thats why she ran away. I am so scared that I dont want to do anything out of the ordinary. We will take things as theye. As long as she is well, she can decide everything. I dont have to get married. I can keep herpany my entire life just like this. I will be with her till her death!
Jing Yichen was rendered speechless by what Mu Qing said. How could the man be such an idiot?
He had thought that Mu Qing would keep Zhao Anan under scrutiny even more after what happened or marry her instantly or make her pregnant to ensure that she stayed by his side forever.
He had not expected that the genius doctor would respond in this way.
To what degree did he n to spoil Zhao Anan?
Jing Yichen used to believe that he was the one who spoiled his wife to a high degree, but it seemed that Mu Qing exceeded him in this aspect. There was always someone better.
What made Zhao Anan so lucky that she had run into a man like Mu Qing who was so devoted to her? No matter what she did, Mu Qing would always tolerate and indulge her.
Zhao Anan would get even more spoiled and unruly if it went on like this.
Has your brain been washed by the water of the Mediterranean? Bring her home after two days of rest. You may want to spoil her, but aunt and I dont intend to. This girl is way too stubborn and needs to be reigned in. If you dont put pressure on her, she will never marry you even if she dies!
Jing Yichen wiped his face and lectured Mu Qing fiercely.
Do you think that you are doing her any good? You are ruining her! Think about it carefully. If you dont marry Zhao Anan, I will arrange blind dates for her when she returns, so she can marry a fellow patient who shares the same feelings with her and live as long as she does! In this way, they wont care who dies first!
Mu Qing didnt know how to react.
Jing Yichen must be the only man who could think of such a terrible idea!
Mu Qing instantlypromised. Okay, okay, I will bring Anan home and marry her instantly after wend.
Jing Yichen nodded in satisfaction. Be quick. It is just a flight and she can bear it. Her mom is waiting for her at home, and if you donte instantly, she will fly there to pick her up.
Mu Qing agreed. He felt that Jing Yichen was getting more and more bossy and he had no way to fight back.
Hanging up the phone, Jing Yichen changed into a dry outfit. When he came to Landscape Compound, he didnt have a single trace of rain on his body.
Shangguan Ning would surely me him for not taking good care of himself if he returned homepletely soaked.
Jing Yichen felt his heart soften when he thought of his one-week old son and Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning came to him as soon as Jing Yichen opened the door.
Jing Yichen frowned slightly and took her up in his arms. Didnt Aunt say that you must lie in bed and rest? Why are you standing here?
Shangguan Ning pursed her lips and said, I am rotting in bed! A walk helps to rx the legs too. Only lying in bed doesnt help with recovery.
Jing Yichen put her back into bed, but didnt argue.
He brought their sleeping son onto their huge bed.
Shangguan Ning felt full of happiness, when she saw her son who was growing up bit by bit every single day. She lowered her head and kissed his red face. He is looking more and more like you, every day.
Jing Yichen felt very satisfied when his wife and son were lying next to him.
He had never expected that he would experience a life like this. He had thought that he would die alone.
He had just removed a huge threat and Shangguan Ning and Jing Rui were in a much safer situation than before. She could take Jing Rui to have fun everywhere, like the amusement park, the seaside or anywhere without being worried about being taken away by anyone.
Jing Yichen lowered his head to kiss his sons cheeks and then kissed his wife.
He removed the coat andid down next to Shangguan Ning. With hand over his head, he said with a low voice as he stared at Shangguan Nings clear eyes. From today on, Jing Yiran will no longer be a threat to you or our son. Yang Muyan is on the way to be dealt with as well.
Shangguan Ning got slightly startled.
She knew what Jing Yichen meant. He was telling her that he had killed Jing Yiran.
She suddenly felt a kind of weird emotion surging inside her heart, one that was filled with both joy and sadness.
She had hated Jing Yiran deeply and hoped that he could be thrown into hell. But she somehow felt unhappy when she heard about his death.
Jing Yichen knew her well, and understood that she was not feeling happy inside her heart at the moment.
He took Shangguan Ning into his arms and said with a soft voice, Dont feel sorry for him. He deserved it. You and Jing Rui could have died because of him. I will never allow any such thing to happen ever again. He would have be fiercer and crueler. He was a ticking bomb that would have exploded any time.
Chapter 499 - Heart to Heart
Chapter 499: Heart to Heart
Shangguan Ning hated Jing Yiran for being cruel. She could tolerate him bullying her, but not her son.
She just felt a bit ufortable that a life ended in this way because of her.
Jing Yichen took hold of Shangguan Nings waist and said in a cold voice, Maybe you are not yet aware of the fact that Anan was taken away by Jing Yiran and imprisoned by him all this time!
What?!
Shangguan Ning got so startled that she almost burst out.
She threw a look at her son who was thankfully still in slumber. Seeing that he had not woken up, she asked anxiously, tugging at Jing Yichens arm. What on earth is it going on? How did Jing Yiran imprison Anan? He was so cruel. Anan never offended him.
This act of his took away thest remaining sense of guilt from Shangguan Nings heart.
Jing Yiran was way too sinister for anyone to feel sympathetic towards him!
They spent so much time, resources and energy searching for Anan, and had been to almost every corner of A City and the UK. Zheng Jing even took advantage of his position and asked the police in the entire country to search for Anan. Right now, every policeman in the country had a picture of Zhao Anan and was busy searching for her whereabouts.
And it turned out that Zhao Anan had been imprisoned by Jing Yiran!
Shangguan Ning felt her chest ache.
He had done nothing in his lifetime that could make anyone like him or mourn his loss.
Jing Yichen knew that Shangguan Ning would get very annoyed by this news, so before he killed Jing Yiran, he did not tell Shangguan Ning about Zhao Anan being imprisoned.
Of course, he had not known that it was Jing Yiran who imprisoned Zhao Anan before today either!
Jing Yichen patted Shangguan Nings back and consoled her in a soft voice. It is okay, Anan is not physically injured. She was starved for several days in a row and passed out because of hunger. Jing Yiran might have been cruel, but luckily torturing Anan gave him no advantage. So even if Anan was imprisoned and had nowhere to go, she was not injured or harmed in any manner.
But that doesnt help! Shangguan Ning was still furious. Anyone would get mental after being imprisoned for six months. And, Anan might have been starved many times before this as well. Anan is not particrly healthy, and needs to visit hospital at periodic intervals. Good that you killed Jing Yiran and found out where Zhao Anan was, otherwise she would have been imprisoned for a lifetime!
Shangguan Ning felt scared after she thought over the entire matter. Anan had cancer which might return anytime. Normally, she visited the hospital for a checkup every third month. Now, six months had passed and she could have been killed if the cancer had returned during the past six months!
It is fine, even if Jing Yiran said nothing, Anan would have been rescued by Mu Qing anyway.
Seeing Shangguan Ning still being angry, Jing Yichen kissed her smooth forehead and said in a low voice, Three days ago, Mu Qing surrounded the building where Anan was imprisoned. Maybe he sensed Anans presence in some way. He kept saying that Anan was close by. So he begged Lee Duo to research that area again.
The ce where Zhao Anan was imprisoned had been searched by Lee Duo at least twice before. But nothing suspicious had been noticed but Mu Qings instinct kept telling him otherwise. So he asked Lee Duo to do the search once again and that was when they finally found traces of Zhao Anan and that muscr man.
What made Mu Qing be sure about Zhao Anans presence was that he identally noticed the bottom of an instant noodle box, where a simple sketch of a pig was drawn by someones nails.
The trace left by the fingernails was not clear in the darkness, but it stood out against the sunlight.
And Mu Qing realised at the first nce itself that it had been Zhao Anan who did it!
No one else would have painted such an ugly pig apart from her.
Also, she painted the sketch with fingernails under the bottom side of an instant noodle box, which meant that she had no pen or paper and even if she did, she was not able to deliver any message, leading them to believe that she was imprisoned.
The person who trapped her was very discreet and had cut off all possibilities of her sending out any signal. Zhao Anan might havee up with the idea of painting under the bottom of the instant noodle box.
Mu Qing felt very, very gratified that he had given up everything toe and search for Zhao Anan in the UK. If he had not, Lee Duo and his men might never have found her, ever.
No one would have that insitictive feeling about Zhao Anan as he did, and no one would have recognized that drawing of the ugly pig. No one would even have been bothered to notice the foam box in the dustbin.
But even if the instant noodle box was found there, it was still not certain where Zhao Anan was living. So Mu Qing and Lee Duo started the search from one household then to another with his men.
Two dayster, they eventually knew where Zhao Anan was kept.
Jing Yichen waited a few days to kill Jing Yiran, because Mu Qing had told him about Zhao Anans location, but they had not made a move, fearing that Zhao Anan would be killed by the kidnappers.
It was not until Mu Qing and Lee Duo were sure that there was only one kidnapper who imprisoned Zhao Anan that they started the rescue.
Jing Yichen had not known that Jing Yiran was the person who imprisoned Zhao Anan. But he just wanted to wait until Zhao Anan was safe.
It was good that Mu Qing found Zhao Anan ahead of time, otherwise Jing Yiran might have escaped death. Jing Yichen would have let him escape had he truly used Zhao Anan as the hostage.
He had purposefully held back the news of Zhao Anans rescue and shown indifference about her well-being because he wanted Jing Yiran to die in despair.
I made all of this happen. Anan was imprisoned because of me. Otherwise she would not have suffered this much. Jing Yiran imprisoned her only because he treated her as a safeguard. But she should take some me too. If she had stayed with Mu Qing, she would not have suffered this much.
Shangguan Ning could not help but feel concerned for her best friend.
But her concern did notst that long until she got confused and asked Jing Yichen in an unfriendly tone, Master Jing, so you knew that Anan had been imprisoned ages ago. Why didnt you tell me?
Jing Yichen couldnt help but show a sheepish smile. In order to console her, he didnt realise that he unwittingly leaked the fact that he had known about Zhao Anan being imprisoned from much before.
Fearing that his wife would grill him further, Jing Yichen got off the bed and walked out as if nothing major happened. I will call my aunt and tell her that Anan has been found...
Chapter 500 - Love You
Chapter 500: Love You
At a small vi in Manchester, UK, a person was sleeping on a light purple sheet in a spacious bedroom. On the womans wrist, there was a thin needle through which the IV was running, giving her body energy.
It was a dark night.
Spring in the UK was slightly cold and misty, and Mu Qing, who had been used to the pleasant weather of A City felt a bit ufortable.
In fact, he had been feeling unwell for a long time. Everything about this country made him feel ufortable.
He did not like the UK, he loved A City where he grew up.
But all of the difort and unpleasantness had faded away today, only because this girl finally came back to his side.
Mu Qing tucked the nket around her, in case she caught a cold.
The woman looked a bit different from how he remembered her. She had lost so much weight that her chubby chin had be pointed and her corbone stood out, making her look even more sexy. Because of being away from the sun for so long, her skin had turned whiter, reflecting smoothness like a jade. She looked ethereal.
Mu Qing did not dare close his eyes, fearing that this was a dream and when he would wake up, the woman he longed for so much would disappear again, and he would fall into misery yet again.
This kind of love in the world is called persistence.
This persistence can exist deep inside a mans marrow that the man would never be able to get rid of it.
No matter what this woman had done before, how unruly she was and however much she wanted to run away, Mu Qing would forgive her for that.
This was his love. He did not want a repayment and did not care about winning or losing. No matter how much time had passed, he still loved her deeply.
They might not ever have a deep rtionship throughout their lives. Maybe they would face bumps, they might quarrel, turn on each other or run away from home...
Just like every other ordinary couple!
The only difference was that Zhao Anan might leave him one day and go somewhere beyond his reach.
Maybe that was one of the reasons why he tolerated so much from Zhao Anan.
But the most important reason why he could tolerate all the unruly tantrums of Zhao Anan was because he loved her way too deeply.
Mu Qing had seen many women with or without clothes. They could be elegant and sexy, but none of them could make him happy as Zhao Anan did.
The other women might be better, but he felt that Zhao Anan was the only one for him.
Everyone had their own choice. He couldnte up with a specific exnation as to why he fell in love with Zhao Anan. He had no idea what made him fall for her. All he knew was that he loved her deeply, and it had nothing to do with sex or looks.
They fell in love when they were younger, and after all the mess, they parted. This was a love that had been suppressed for a decade. It had never gone away but kept bubbling under the surface.
He had never thought of himself as a man who could love someone for this long. He thought that he would be able to forget about her but unknown to him, he had been in love with her for ten years!
Rather, for ten plus one years!
Mu Qing would never have believed that a man could love a woman for so long, if it had not happened to himself.
Destiny was written in the stars.
Mu Qing felt that he could have led a life with any other woman, because that was how one lived. He was an easy man who wasnt that picky, and if a girl had a good personality, he could have lived a stable life with her after a child was born.
But after he met Zhao Anan and fell for her, he did not want to be and could not be an easy man, anymore.
He had been following a fixed routine throughout his entire life, and walked forward ording to the n his grandpa made for him. He never made a mistake and never stepped out of the boundary.
He was an obedient man, not psychologically strong like Jing Yichen who never cared about the principles and moralities. He was a man who cared about his family and thought of the burden on his shoulders.
But during the past six months, Mu Qings ideology underwent a tremendous change.
He had stepped out of the boundary, rather redefined it.
He was living a life based on his own will and no fixed routine.
Hecked nothing in his life, no money, no glory, except a woman whom he could love deeply.
Zhao Anan did not want to marry him, right? Then they did not have to get married. As long as they could spend every day together and as long as she was happy, he was happy.
It did not matter what the future would bring, and what cancer would do to them. To hell with all of those things!
He was going to travel all over the world with Zhao Anan and live an easy life with her.
Mu Qing felt both excited and nervous. He felt Zhao Anans pulse every now and then, fearing that she might be sick again.
Fortunately, she was doing well, except for some weakness and would hopefully wake up the next day.
Mu Qing lowered his head to kiss Zhao Anans dry lips.
Her lips tasted as he remembered them, except for being a bit rougher. That was only because she had not drank water for a long time.
His kiss was full ofpassion and love, making her lips turn plump and moist once again.
Mu Qings tears seeped out.
As his tears trickled down on Zhao Anans cheeks, it looked as if she had been crying too.
Mu Qing did not stop until a long timeter.
He touched Zhao Anans forehead with his, and cupped her skinny face, feeling her warmth.
Anan, my love, did you know that I have been searching for you for so long? Did you know that I missed you every single day so much that I almost turned crazy?
How could you be so cruel and leave me?
No one loves you more than I in this world, Anan!
You are mine, you always will be. I am not going to let you run away now. You are meant to be mine. I know you love me too. I know it!
Tomorrow, when you wake up and see me next to you, will you be happy?
During the past days, have you missed me too?
You must have missed me, right? You must have known that I went crazy searching for you. I saw the pig you painted!
It was very ugly, it must have been the ugliest pig in the entire world. But I loved it, I was so happy to see it.
You can cry, throw tantrums or get furious, but please, do not ever leave me!
My life has no meaning without you. Any money I make or sess that I achieve will be of no use without you being around!
Chapter 501 - Crazy Badgering (Part One)
Chapter 501: Crazy Badgering (Part One)
Zhao Anan had not taken a shower for a long time now. Her hair was unkempt, clothes filthy and old. She was covered with mud and her hands and feet were dusty.
Mu Qing stood up and brought a basin of hot water near the bed. He wrung the towel and wiped Zhao Anans face gently. Then he moved to her short hair and continued wiping her dirty hands and feet. He changed her into afortable, cotton gown and cut her fingernails sitting by her bedside.
Zhao Anans hands had been wiped clean by Mu Qing, showing the original whiteness. Her fingers were long and hands well maintained because she had never done any housework before.
She was a tomboy, so she did not care about nail paints nor did she keep those shaped long nails. Her fingernails used to be short and clean.
But she had not cut them for a long time now, and had been unclean before Mu Qing wiped them.
Mu Qing cut her fingernails gently and patiently as his heart ached for her.
He had no idea what Zhao Anans life had been like during the past few months where she wasnt even allowed to take a shower. She was ady from a noble family and had never lived her life like this.
Before Mu Qing came to Zhao Anans rescue, he had watched that building for two days in a row with Lee Duos men.
And they had been the most miserable days for Mu Qing because he had to watch Zhao Anan living with that rough man.
Though the man seemed to have no wrong intentions towards Zhao Anan, but even then, Mu Qing felt his fuse blow when he watched Zhao Anan spending so much time in close proximity with that man. His heart was flowing like a volcano.
Had it not been for Lee Duo who stopped him, Mu Qing would surely have rushed in to bring Zhao Anan out of the ce right away.
Luckily, that man showed no desire towards Zhao Anan or hit her in any way. He had just starved her making her lose the energy to run away.
When Mu Qing got to know that it was Jing Yiran who imprisoned Zhao Anan, he wanted to fly back to A City to stab Jing Yiran hundreds of times.
Good that he was dead now, otherwise Mu Qing would have done something extremely cruel to him.
Jing Yiran was a man without a baseline. He had done whatever it took to achieve what he wanted.
Mu Qing felt angry inside his heart but suppressed it. He lowered his head to kiss her fingers gently.
After he was done with the fingernails, Mu Qing went to the beds edge and started to trim her toenails.
Before Mu Qing met Zhao Anan, he was a man from a noble family who could get anything he wanted. Because of Mu Wensheng, who was a legendary doctor, the Mu Family had a firm position in A City, and Mu Qing grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth.
He was not chauvinistic, but had never expected that he would trim a womans fingernails one day and that too so willingly.
Zhao Anans feet had already been thoroughly cleaned by him, and now he paused to look at them. Her toes were supple and pretty, just like pearls.
Mu Qing guarded Zhao Anan until dawn broke on the horizon.
He watched as thest nutrient fluid went into Zhao Anans body and stood up to remove the needle from her arm. Then he tidied up the room, and removed his coat. Lifting the nket, he slipped under the cover, and took Zhao Anan in his arms. cing his forehead against hers, he fell asleep, finally.
This vi belonged to Jing Yichen. When Zhao Anan fell into aa, Lee Duo received the approval from Jing Yichen to bring Mu Qing and Zhao Anan into the house for the time being.
At nine in the morning in London, Lee Duo shook his head when he realised that there was no noiseing from the bedroom. He went to the dining room for breakfast without waiting for Mu Qing and Zhao Anan any longer.
He had wanted to go back home today, but Mu Qing didnt allow that to happen. Jing Yichen also asked him to keep them safe for a couple of days, so he stayed put.
Lee Duo had not had such a leisurely life in a very long time and he felt a bit ufortable. He felt weird that he wasnt doing anything, so he kepting up with something or the other to keep him upied.
He thought that the muscr man who had guarded Zhao Anan was determined and good at martial arts. If he was given proper training, he could be a good aid to the Master.
After breakfast, Lee Duo went to find the man in a hurry. He had been ced in the house where he and Zhao Anan had lived before, except that now he became the one who was imprisoned.
Around ten am, Zhao Anan woke up from an unsteady dream but she did not open her eyes.
She believed that she was still imprisoned in that house, so she was not in a hurry to get up.
Getting up early did not help, so she could just lie a bit longer and conserve her energy to try to run awayter.
But as she moved, she suddenly realized that she was in someones arms.
Zhao Anan jerked up all of a sudden.
She screamed, and started to kick that person, before she caught a glimpse of who it was.
When Mu Qing got kicked by Zhao Anan and heard her frightful scream, he suddenly woke up.
His thighs ached because of Zhao Anans kick and his handsome face was distorted in pain.
But without caring about any of it, he held Zhao Anan firmly and called out to her. Anan, it is me, stop it!
Zhao Anan looked at the man lying next to her in disbelief. She shut her eyes and opened them again, only to see the handsome face still there.
She raised her hands to touch the face that was so familiar to her and mumbled. Mu Qing? I am not dreaming, am I?
Mu Qings heart ached as he pinched her pointed chin. He leaned forward and whispered with love and concern filling up his eyes. Anan, you are not dreaming, it is me, Mu Qing! Sorry for arrivingte and making you suffer so much...
He leaned forward to touch Zhao Anans lips, pulled them in and soon got entangled with her violently, absorbing the scent and taste of her mouth.
Chapter 502 - Crazy Badgering (Part Two)
Chapter 502: Crazy Badgering (Part Two)
Zhao Anan got totally taken aback by Mu Qings kiss.
She still was not being able to tell if it was real or a dream!
She had been living in that house up until a moment ago, imprisoned by an indifferent kidnapper and unable to run away from there. But she woke up and found what she had been praying for every day. The man she loved above all was lying next to her and staring at her with an adoring look.
What was it if not a dream?
Was it because she missed Mu Qing way too much that she had finally gone crazy?
The physical reaction of her body told her that she was longing for Mu Qing, desperately.
Subconsciously, she slipped her hands around Mu Qings waist and kissed him back.
The tongues duelled with each other as if they would never be apart again.
Zhao Anan wanted to cry experiencing such a familiar action.
She was not a girl who would shed tears easily, but at this moment, she felt that she was at the edge of crying. Her chest filled up with emotions so much that she could barely breathe.
Mu Qing had been longing for Zhao Anan for too long now to hold back the love inside any longer.
With his beloved woman in his arms, he kissed her violently.
Zhao Anan had not been intimate with Mu Qing for half a year now and was feeling unusually sensitive. She could not help but utter a light moan.
It felt that her entire being had been lit up by him and was going to be burnt by these crazy mes of passion.
She finally realized that this was not a dream but reality. She was not dreaming! Mu Qing did find her!
She was finally out of the cage after half a year!
She was not sure how Mu Qing found her, maybe it had been because of the guards mistake, or because Mu Qing identally found the pig she painted on the box. Whatever it was, he had finally found her.
He must have gone through a great deal of bitterness, because Mu Qing in front of her had be tanned and skinny. He must have been searching for her for a long time before he turned out to look like this.
Zhao Anans heart ached. He must have given up all toe and seek her here.
What a silly guy! Was she really worth his efforts?
Zhao Anan suddenly started to hate herself and the tumor that had been torturing her for eleven years. She wished desperately that she was a healthy woman.
She had never desired to be alive as much as she did now!
Mu Qing intuitively felt the emotional change in Zhao Anan. He tried to control himself to not go any further. Instead, he kissed her cheeks, her nose and consoled her gently.
Zhao Anan soon registered Mu Qings restrained moves and concern. She cupped his face and kissed his face.
Mu Qing, who was trying to restrain himself, shivered because of Zhao Anans kiss. He had gonepletely mental in the head. He stripped off Zhao Anans annoying sleeping gown and felt himself harden as he saw her sexy body.
Without the barrier of clothes between them, Mu Qing kissed his beloved woman as if worshipping her. She felt happiness arising inside her body and moved her hands on his back.
Zhao Anan felt that she had lost all her strength now. Sheid in bed and left herself at his mercy.
Qing... Her soft voice arose from Zhao Anan, and melted Mu Qingpletely. It was the first time that she had called him in this way and his heart trembled.
Zhao Anan did not recognise this sexy voice and couldnt believe that it belonged to her. But she didnt let shyness ovee her and boldly lifted her face and started to kiss Mu Qings neck and chest.
I am here, Anan... Mu Qings voice was slightly hoarse with desire.
I missed you...
Zhao Anans voice was full of endless longing.
At this moment, they felt as if they had been transported back to that summer, eleven years ago, when they came together for the first time, nervous and shy, anxious yet expectant.
They had given each other their first time.
Since then, Mu Qing regarded her as his biggest treasure.
Mu Qing seemed to have returned to being that same young man who had touched a woman for the first time, excited, crazy and eager!
I missed you too, Anan, very much...
After two times of crazy sex, Mu Qing finally calmed himself down. He saw Anan lying in his arms and said softly, Anan, I am sorry, I just couldnt help myself just now, I missed you too much...
Zhao Anan was feeling quite weak despite the nutrient fluid. One night of rest was not enough for her to gain her strength back.
Mu Qing still longed for her but he did not touch her anymore.
Zhao Anan did not have any strength left even in her fingertips. She wondered how did she manage to have sex with him so enthusiastically a few moments ago. She could not help but flush at the thought.
Mu Qing lowered his head to kiss her as he saw Zhao Anan blush for the very first time.
Zhao Anan was sure that she couldnt stand a third round, so she red at him. No... more...
Her voice sounded charming andid-back instead of being loud. That made Mu Qing feel the need rise in him, again.
Chapter 503 - Sweetness (Part One)
Chapter 503: Sweetness (Part One)
Zhao Anan got startled when she caught the sparkle in Mu Qings eyes. She covered herself up in a hurry and said in a low voice, I... really cant stand it any more...
Mu Qing felt his heart melt at the sight of this little girls behavior. He took her into his arms and lowered his head. Biting gently on Zhao Anans snowy shoulders, he picked her up even as she cried and strode towards the bathroom.
Zhao Anan didnt even get the opportunity of standing up or saying a word in the bathroom.
She clung to Mu Qing, and allowed herself to be showered with bath gel and flower petals by this man.
Only then did Zhao Anan realize that she was already quite clean. She had not showered for such a long time and should have been filthy. Why did she look so clean at the moment?
She lifted her eyes and nced at Mu Qing as she asked in a soft voice, You bathed me yesterday?
Mu Qing put her against the wall and kissed her intensely until her lips swelled up. Then he said in an indulgent voice. You were not in a position to take a shower yesterday. So I wiped you clean with a towel thoroughly.
Zhao Anan was breathless by his kisses. Her lips ached, yet she ignored the pain. She was in Mu Qings sweet embrace.
She lifted her arms and threw a look at her hands and feet, only to discover that her nails had been clipped and groomed as well.
She slipped her hands around Mu Qings waist and said in a sweet voice, Did you cut my nails too? I needed them for something, you shouldnt have cut them!
Mu Qings heart skipped a beat. He lowered his head to kiss her again.
He just couldnt get enough of her and the longing for her sweet lips was so strong. He pushed her onto himself as if wanting to merge with her body.
Zhao Anan did not expect such behaviour from Mu Qing. She wanted tough, but she also felt her heart aching.
She could feel Mu Qings deep love towards her. It was the kind of love that made her feel that even if she died at this moment, she would have no regrets.
No one else would love her as much as Mu Qing did!
What on earth was so good about her that such an excellent man was devoted to her?
Tears trickled down from Zhao Anans eyes. She closed her eyes and kissed Mu Qing back, indulging in the joy and the deep love which Mu Qing was giving her. But then he stopped.
Zhao Anan opened her eyes to look at him. She looked charming yet a little confused. What is it?
Mu Qing wanted her desperately and she had also shown her willingness. What made him stop?
Mu Qing looked at his beloved woman and caressed her short hair. His voice had gone hoarse with suppressed desire. You are too weak right now. When you get better, I will have you every single day, is that okay?
He was fearful of her weak body.
Zhao Anan felt her heart soften, as if someone had dipped it in a sweet candy.
Mu Qing stared at her and her expressions turned him into mush.
He took Zhao Anans hands in his and asked. What do you need long fingernails for? You like short fingernails, dont you?
Mu Qings gentle voice fell upon Zhao Anans heart like a feather, tickling her heart.
She leaned against Mu Qings arms and her voice turned happy. I wanted to keep them because I wanted to use them as weapons on important asions.
Shen was happy that Mu Qing cut her nails, but she did not see the process, which ought to have been a cute scene.
She had never heard of any man who would care for a woman so much that he would even groom her like this.
Zhao Anan had been imprisoned for half a year and had missed him for exactly that much time.
Usually, when she fell into trouble, she would think of Jing Yichen rather than Mu Qing.
Jing Yichen was her cousin, almost like her real brother. What was more, her cousin was capable of solving anything. He was fast and effective.
However, it might be because her rtionship with Mu Qing had progressed to a certain degree or maybe because she had kept Mu Qing inside her heart for too long, that he became the first person whom she thought of, during the past half a year.
She missed him when she was awake, and would dream about him when she was asleep.
She had wished that Mu Qing woulde and rescue her, but dared not hope too much. Surprisingly, it turned out that Mu Qing was really the one who came to rescue her.
For some reason, her capable cousin had been reced by the sunny and handsome Mu Qing in her head.
Or maybe she knew that she had a very important position in Mu Qings heart, and hence believed that Mu Qing woulde to find her. That belief had made her determined to send messages to the outside world.
She had kept the long fingernails, not to defend herself against that muscr man, because she would never have been a match against him. Even if her fingernails had been made of steel, that strong man would have never lost to her. Also, that muscr man never had any intentions of touching her, so she was not scared of him.
She kept long fingernails, because she wanted to draw pigs.
Mu Qing felt his heart ache when he saw Zhao Anan looking bright and happy right now.
Although he knew that the guard did not touch Zhao Anan, he still asked worriedly. That man did not give you a hard time, did he? Did he hurt you in any way?
Zhao Anan shook her head and then nodded. She said furiously, He was a very bad man. He would starve me every time after I tried to run away. And, no matter how much I tried to seduce him, he would not fall for it. I am not ugly, am I? I dont think he likes women, otherwise I would have managed to run away by now.
Chapter 504 - Sweetness (Part Two)
Chapter 504: Sweetness (Part Two)
Mu Qing had been feeling concerned about Zhao Anans well-being during captivity but when he understood what she had intended to do, he almost choked on his own saliva.
This girl dared to seduce that guy? Hadnt she been worried that she would get into trouble?
Zhao Anan might look like a tomboy, but that didnt make her a boy. On the contrary, she had an oval face with beautiful features. Her skin was white and her body was in great shape. She had long legs andrge breasts.
Which man could stand her seduction?!
Mu Qing got both furious and irritated. He opened his mouth to bite her lips whilst spanking her butt soundly.
Ridiculous! You were seeking trouble. What if he had something else on his mind for you?
Did she really miss him? She not only tried to seduce the man but alsoined to him about not seeding in doing it.
Zhao Anan, could you please be a little rational?
Zhao Anan did not get annoyed after being bitten and spanked by him. Smiling, she sprayed water onto Mu Qings muscr chest, and his handsome appearance was blurred by the mist, but Zhao Anan felt quite content.
I was just pretending to seduce him. I wouldnt have done anything real.
Zhao Anan pinched Mu Qings nipples andughed proudly as she heard him grumbling.
See, I only seduce you. I would never do such a thing to anyone else. My n was to seduce that kidnapper so that I could run away once I managed to distract him.
Mu Qing wanted to hit this naked woman sitting in front of him.
He spoke through clenched teeth. That is not eptable, either. You must not seduce anyone, whatever the reason.
Dont worry, I think you are very nice to me. No other men would be interested in me. Also, I am not good at seducing men, so I wont try it in the future.
Zhao Anan was in a good mood. She lifted her head to kiss Mu Qings bearded chin.
She had never done such things of her own ord. That made Mu Qing want to protect her even more.
He softened his voice, caught her hands and said in a soft voice, You are a beautiful woman. No other woman can match up to you.
Mu Qing took the spray from Zhao Anans hands and washed off the soapy bubbles from her body. Then he carried her into the bathtub and made her sit on him whilst he helped her to wash her lower body.
Mu Qing had done this before, but Zhao Anan still felt a bit shy about it. I can do it myself....
Mu Qing moved her hands away with determination. I will do it.
Zhao Anan had no choice but to let him clean her up. It was not the first time, and she soon stopped protesting.
Leaning in Mu Qings arms, Zhao Anan felt veryfortable.
She had not taken a bath or shower so peacefully in a long time.
Although that man did not seem interested in her, whenever Zhao Anan was taking a shower, she used to feel really scared that he would rush in.
Zhao Anan suddenly asked when she thought of the kidnapper, Is the perverted man, who imprisoned me, dead?
Mu Qing did not understand which perverted man was Zhao Anan referring to, so he said, You mean, Jing Yiran? He is already dead. Master Jing has taken revenge for you.
Zhao Anan got so startled that she almost jumped out of the water. She shouted loudly. How is the entire thing rted to Jing Yiran? He is... dead?!
This was shocking!
She had always believed that Jing Yiran would not die so early.
Only now did Mu Qing realize that Zhao Anan was asking about the man who had guarded her, rather than the culprit behind the incident.
But that did not matter, he had nned to tell her about Jing Yiran, anyway.
That man is Jing Yirans employee. He sent the man to imprison you only because he wanted to use you as a back up.
Zhao Anan still could not believe that. So she asked in astonishment, Why did he do that? Could I have saved his life? If my cousin wanted to kill him...
Then she suddenly realized the truth. She said with widened eyes, So he had known that my cousin would kill him otherwise?!
Or he would not have had to take her as the amulet!
Yes, he did something terrible, much worse than keeping you imprisoned. He knew that he would not be able to live post that, so he set the trap much earlier.
Speaking of Jing Yiran, Mu Qing got extremely furious. He hated the man to the marrow, and would have killed him with his bare hands had he still been alive.
Zhao Anan asked in surprise, What can be worse than imprisoning me?
Mu Qing threw a look at her. He had not nned to tell her about Shangguan Ning, but she was Shangguan Nings best friend, so he told her the truth.
Jing Yiran wanted to get the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise and the rights of inheritance of the Jing Family, so he took Shangguan Ning as hostage and took her to the Cross-Sea Bridge, forcing Master Jing to hand out the shares and rights of inheritance.
Zhao Anan gasped hearing what happened.
She resembled a goldfish with eyes and mouth open. Her face was flushed because of the hot water in the bathtub.
Mu Qings anger disappeared looking at her.
Jing Yiran had already paid for his behavior and there was no need for him to hate a dead man.
Zhao Anan got so startled that it took her a long time to absorb the implications of what she had been told. Shangguan Ning was pregnant.
She asked, Is Ning okay? Bastard Jing Yiran, he should have been yed!
Mu Qing shook his head lightly, She is fine now. Also, you have a nephew called Jing Rui, lovely and strong. When you recover, we will go and visit him, okay?
Zhao Anan got very excited. She sshed her hands in the water. Really? That is great! I have got a nephew. I am an aunt now!
But she suddenly realized that something was wrong. She calcted and said in confusion, That doesnt seem right. Ning is not due this month. Her due date is June. What happened?!
Mu Qing smiled bitterly and replied, Sister-inw was pushed off the bridge into the sea by Jing Yirans man. She could not handle the impact and gave birth to the baby, prematurely.
Chapter 505 - The Energetic Lady Zhao
Chapter 505: The Energetic Lady Zhao
Ahead....of time?!
Zhao Anan got both startled and furious.
Mu Qing consoled her instantly. Everything is fine now. It was a critical situation back then, but now all is well. Both Sister-inw and the child are recovering properly. It is being said that your nephew is not that different from the children born at full term. He is healthy and well developed.
Only then did Zhao Anan breathe in a sigh of relief.
She suddenly realized that a lot had changed during her time in captivity.
Zhao Anan was still weak, so she did not stay in the bathtub for too long. Soon, Mu Qing carried her out.
Zhao Anan got dressed in the outfit which Mu Qing had asked the servants to buy the day before. She wanted to go downstairs for food when he stopped her.
You have not yet recovered fully, just lie still! I will bring the food here. You can eat in bed.
Zhao Anan thought about it for a moment and did not turn the idea down.
Honestly, she didck the energy, and being with Mu Qing made her feel rxed. So she threw herself on the bed and nodded. Sure. You have exhausted me, so it is fair that you serve me till I recover.
Mu Qing also thought that he had been a bit crazy earlier in the day. He smiled at Zhao Anan adoringly, kissed her lips and went downstairs.
Mu Qing had instructed the servants to prepare some simple dishes that could be easily digested and some porridge. The porridge was still warm but the dishes had turned cold. So, he asked the servants to make two more dishes, bring one more soup and a small appetiser and carried all the things upstairs.
The two servants of this vi were originally from A City. They had been living in the UK for the past ten years. Before Jing Yichen returned to A City, he lived here for a long time and these servants major tasks had been taking care of his food and daily housework.
So the food they made, fit Zhao Anans tastepletely.
Zhao Anan was fed up with British breakfast, and had not touched any sort of porridge or wok dishes during the past six months. She had been tired of bread, potatoes,and beef every single day.
A simple dish like tomatoes with scrambled eggs made Zhao Anan wolf it down as if she was eating gourmet food.
She drank two bowls of millet and pumpkin porridge, frightening Mu Qing that he did not allow her to eat anything further.
You have not eaten anything for days. Too much food at one time would harm your body. No more food for now!
Zhao Anan licked her lips as she saw the pickled cucumbers that looked green and tender. She made up her mind that she was going to eat pickled cucumbers every single day, once she recovered!
She had not had interest in such a dish before, because she liked meat rather than vegetables. But after spending half a year eating beef, she had bepletely fed up with meat.
She was eager to eat the light, fresh dishes instead.
But she did feel full right now. Her stomach had shrunk after being starved so often that little food also filled her up now.
After Mu Qing finished the food, he packed up everything and carried it down to the kitchen. When he came back, he found Zhao Anan falling asleep.
Sitting by her side and watching her exquisite face, Mu Qing could feel the emptiness of his heart going away.
He had nothing else to do, so he stripped off his clothes and snuggled into the nket, going off to sleep with Zhao Anan in his arms.
At around 12, Lee Duo came home for food and could hear no activity in the bedroom upstairs. The servants told him that the couple ate a meal and went to bed again.
Lee Duo shook his head helplessly, made a call to Jing Yichen and reported to him about the happenings of the day.
Two dayster, Zhao Anan had recovered fully and became as energetic as before. She did not mention anything about breaking up with Mu Qing, which assured him a little.
Mu Qing did not mention anything on that topic either. He was no longer going to keep her forcibly by his side but instead, kept herpany wherever she went.
On the fourth day, Zhao Anan simply could not stand being in the UK any more. She was eager to return to A City, to visit Shangguan Ning and the newly-born Jing Rui.
She and Mu Qing went shopping on the streets of the UK for childrens clothes and toys and returned home with three pieces of luggage filled.
Zhao Anan had thought that she would be happy to return home, but the moment she got on the ne, she became displeased.
That pervert, muscr man was also on the ne. He was sitting next to Lee Duo, silent and looking explosive.
There were not so many people on the ne, apart from Lee Duos men who knew Zhao Anan well. Seeing that Zhao Anan was staring at the man in a sinister way, they all waited to see if any sort of fun was going to happen.
Ignoring Mu Qings protest, Zhao Anan sat down next to the man, stretched out her hand and patted the mans bronze-skinned face, showing unmasked hatred. Hey, why are you here, big guy? Who invited you here? Arent you Jing Yirans man? Since when did you be Lee Duos?
Lee Duo had been with Jing Yichen for many years, and knew Zhao Anans personality well. Seeing that she came to create trouble for the guy, he stood up instantly.
Lady Anan, Knife is already our man. He is a rare talent and I have received the order from Master, who said that after the probation time, he would be Masters man, formally. Please dont pick on him. He took the mission only because he was paid. That was his job.
Zhao Anan did not care whose man he was. She was just furious for being imprisoned for so long and even starved. During the past half a year, she kept swearing to herself that the moment she was out of that room, she would get this man imprisoned for half a year and starve him.
With clenched teeth, Zhao Anan ignored Lee Duo and kept staring at the man. She asked in a teasing tone, What is his name? Knife Lee?
Lee Duo replied with embarrassment, His family is really Lee, and his given name is Knife.
Now Zhao Anan finally knew what this pervert was called.
But what kind of name was that? Knife Lee?!
Zhao Anan just could not help but burst intoughter. She pulled his ears and sneered at him ruthlessly. You are really called Knife Lee? Why dont you call yourself Happy Lee? Or, you can name yourself after the actor who yed the role of Happy Lee. No, that wont work, that actor is very good-looking, and you are so hideous. You will not do justice to the title!
Actually, Knife Lee had quite a good appearance Crge eyes, thick eyebrows and a square face.
Chapter 506 - No More
Chapter 506: No More
Of course, Knife Lee was no match against the good-looking actor.
Lee Duos men were allughing and even Mu Qing was shaking his head, helplessly. Lee Duo, however, was kind of embarrassed. Only Knife Lee seemed to have no reaction towards what Zhao Anan said, as if he were used to the sneering.
The other people on the ne did not know Knife Lee well, and were surprised by his calm behaviour.
Zhao Anan, however, was not surprised at all. She would have been shocked if Knife Lee had shown any reaction.
She had spent half a year with him and knew that he was no different from arge piece of wood. No matter how much she teased or irritated him, he would have no reaction. All he would do was, throw a cold nce at her without uttering a word.
He was a silent man.
But Zhao Anan found the name Knife Lee too amusing. She even pulled his ears and arms.
But Knife Lee was all muscle, and Zhao Anan felt her hands ache after pinching him for a while. He, however, had no reaction but stared at Zhao Anan, calmly!
Mu Qing could not stand it any more. He pulled her back and made her sit down in the chair. Stop messing around. Knife Lee might have irritated you before, but he truly had done nothing harmful to you. Also, Lee Duo has already taken revenge for you. He was severely beaten up. He is now Master Jings man, so you just sit still.
What was this woman doing? Her boyfriend was sitting next to her, and she went to Knife Lee, touching and pinching him. Knife Lee was a man! Luckily, Mu Qing was not a jealous man like Jing Yichen, who would have thrown that man off the ne if Shangguan Ning ever did the same thing to another man.
Zhao Anan was unconvinced. He should not be forgiven so easily. I was trapped by him for half a year. I could not do anything before, but now I can! I will take revenge, definitely!
Mu Qing threw a look at Knife Lee who was sitting in silence. He found this man to be unusual.
He had asked Lee Duo and got to know that Knife Lee was interested in women. But he had a strong sense of self-control and his own moral baseline. That is why Zhao Anan was able to spend half a year with him without being harmed.
During that entire time, Zhao Anan was trapped in that small room and Knife Lee did not go anywhere, because he had to guard her.
Any other man would have shown desire for such a woman after spending day and night with her for so long, but Knife Lee had kept himself under check.
Mu Qing felt that it was lucky that Knife Lee had been the guard, otherwise Zhao Anan might not have stayed intact if it had been anyone else.
He wondered where Jing Yiran had found a man like Knife Lee. ording to Lee Duo, Knife Lee was not Jing Yirans man, but someone Jing Yiran hired for this job specifically. He got paid by Jing Yiran, so he had to work for him. He had not been Jing Yirans full time employee.
Now when Knife Lee was taken over by Jing Yichen, he was an asset to Jing Yichens force.
During the long flight from the UK to A City, Zhao Anan kept provoking Knife Lee but he stayed silent and did not get furious. He did not apologize to her but stayed so quiet that Zhao Anan lost interest in picking on him.
Zhao Anan got so excited when she came back to A City that she forgot all about Knife Lee.
When she heard that Zhao Zhao was taking care of Jing Rui at Shangguan Nings home, she rushed to Landscape Compound, directly.
Jing Yichen knew that Mu Qing was bringing Zhao Anan home, but he purposefully hid it and aimed to give his wife a surprise.
Sure enough, Shangguan Ning got so shocked at the sight of Zhao Anan when she showed up at the door that she stepped forward and hugged her disbelief. She smiled and cried simultaneously, Anan, here you are, I missed you so much!
Zhao Zhao, who saw her daughter return home safely, wiped her tears quietly. But she had no idea what Zhao Anan experienced during this time. Jing Yichen had simply told her that she was hiding from Mu Qing and they failed to find her before this. Since Zhao Zhao found her daughter intact, she was not as excited as Shangguan Ning.
Furthermore, Zhao Zhao was used to Zhao Anan being away from home for so long.
Zhao Anan did not talk with her own mother so much. She wiped Shangguan Nings tears and said, Oh, my dearest Sister-inw, dont cry! You have just given birth. I cant pay back your beautiful eyes if they are hurt because of me. I cant rece them with mine, and even if I wanted to, the size would not match. Yours are much bigger than mine!
Shangguan Nings sadness was brushed away by Zhao Anans words.
What was she talking about?
Shangguan Ning pinched Zhao Anans face. She looked a bit funny with both tears and a smile on the face.
You ruthless woman! You scared us all when you ran away.
Zhao Anan knew that she had made a mistake. So she let herself get pinched by Shangguan Ning.
Alright, alright, I made a mistake. A huge mistake! I will not do anything like this in the future any more, alright? I am sorry to have worried you.
Shangguan Ning forced her to make a vow. I have your word, now. No more running away! You must tell me wherever you go. Make a promise now!
Zhao Anan replied helplessly, Alright, alright, I will make a promise. Wherever I go next time, I will tell you, my Sister-inw. And I will never run away from home any more, alright? What a nosy woman!
Satisfied, Shangguan Ningughed and took her into her arms. This will do!
Mu Qing got both surprised and happy when he heard Zhao Anan promising not to make a mess in the future. He had been prepared to run away with Zhao Anan but did not expect that Zhao Anan intended to settle down!
This was the best news he had heard in recent times.
Zhao Zhao was also d. She felt that her daughter had changed and became slightly obedient with a friend like Shangguan Ning around. Zhao Anan would never have cared about what others were thinking, earlier. Only Shangguan Ning could stop her from doing anything stupid. Even she as a mother did not have this ability.
Jing Yichen didnt have much reaction towards the promise. As long as Shangguan Ning was not running away, he was alright with everything else.
He thought that an unruly woman like Zhao Anan would have suffered a great deal to finally realise that the best ce in the world was home.
Chapter 507 - A Baby for Me
Chapter 507: A Baby for Me
As they were talking, a loud wailing arose from the bedroom.
Shangguan Ning instantly dragged Zhao Anan in there. Oh no, my son has woken up. I need to go and check on him.
Zhao Anan rushed into the bedroom with excitement, and happily pinched his face seeing Shangguan Ning picking the little one from the babys cot.
Zhao Zhao scolded her. Stop it! Jing Rui has tender skin. He cant stand your pinching! Stay away from him, you are not careful.
Zhao Anan ignored her and continued to pinch Jing Ruis face, except that she was not using any strength.
She rolled her eyes at Zhao Zhao. Mom, are you really my mother? I have juste back home and you are already scolding me. Jing Rui is my nephew, and I love him so much. I wont pinch him hard. Good that Ning is not someone from outside the family, otherwise she would have thought that I am a cruel person. You are trying to create a rift between us!
Zhao Zhao did not believe what she said, so she stretched out her hand and struck hard upon her back.
Zhao Anan screamed in an exaggerating way. Oh my god! My mom is trying to kill her own daughter. You are getting so ruthless. My spine has broken!
Have you ever thought of me as your mother?! Have you ever considereding back to me?
Zhao Zhao did not look pleased. She red at Zhao Anan and scolded her. I brought you up by myself and this is how you pay me back. You left without saying a word and even lied to me about returning to A City with Mu Qing. You are getting very bold. You even dared to steal Mu Qings money. When will you learn to be obedient? I am not a mother to such an unruly daughter! Without you, I would live much longer!
Zhao Anan realized that she had worried her mother a lot this time. So she took hold of Zhao Zhaos arms and admitted her mistake. Mom, I am sorry I made a mistake. But I am here now. I missed you very much when I was abroad. During the past six months, I finally realized that A City is the best, home is the best, mom is the best!
Zhao Anan was not just trying to please Zhao Zhao.
She did miss home a great deal during the time when she was imprisoned.
She was the apple of Zhao Zhaos eyes, and had not experienced much bitterness in her life. Apart from the chemotherapy that she had to go through, the biggest pain she had suffered was to have a fight with someone else, ending up beaten and swollen up.
Being imprisoned, starved and forced to eat the same thing every single day and not being able to go anywhere, had been the biggest torment for her mind.
During those times, Zhao Anan would miss Zhao Zhaos care and love for her. She had always been able to get anything she ever wanted, since childhood.
Maybe she had really grown up and be mature, now. She would normally be unmoved by Zhao Zhaos lecture every time she returned home, but now, she felt deep guilt and unhappiness.
She really had been way too unruly and a terrible daughter!
Her mother had got grey hair and wrinkles, yet she had to worry about her daughter every single day. She had not only handled the return of her tumor, but also gone through the torment of missing her when she was away.
Zhao Zhao knew her daughter well. Seeing her admit her mistake for the very first time, she understood that she was being sincere, otherwise she would have behaved differently.
But she still kept a long face in front of Zhao Anan, otherwise her daughter would soon change her attitude. She must teach her a good lesson this time.
After pampering Zhao Zhao for a while, Zhao Anan finally made Zhao Zhao smile.
Neither Mu Qing nor Jing Yichen entered the bedroom. They were talking in the dining room. Shangguan Ning closed the bedroom door, and picked up Jing Rui, and lifted her dress to feed him.
Zhao Anan looked at her nephew who was drinking his mothers milk in excitement and thought that he was very cute. She wanted to take him in her arms and y with him.
Jing Rui looked energetic after a good sleep and fully fed.
He was totally different from the day when he was born. He was growing up fast every single day.
Zhao Anan stood by Shangguan Nings side and asked expectantly. Ning, can I hold him, now?
Seeing her getting so excited, Shangguan Ning could not help but burst intoughter. Of course, you are his aunt. You can hold him for as long as you want. He doesnt reject anyone.
Jing Rui was very obedient and docile, and he never cried. He did not turn any stranger down, but stared at the person with a pair ofrge and dark eyes.
Jing Tianyuan had visited Jing Rui two days ago, and the baby smiled at him when he had taken him in his arms. That made grandpa so d that he gave Jing Rui one of his properties immediately, saying that he could use it to buy candies.
Now when Zhao Anan held him in her arms, Jing Rui was still very obedient. He blew bubbles and stuffed his fingers into his mouth.
Zhao Anan had never held such a small baby. She was being very careful, fearing that she would hurt him somehow.
She looked at Zhao Zhao as she saw the resemnce between Jing Rui and Jing Yichen. Mom, do you think that Ruirui looks a lot like my cousin when he was young?
Zhao Zhaoughed. Of course, I even have a picture of your cousin when he was this small. They arepletely alike.
Shangguan Ning had also seen a young Jing Yichens pictures. Jing Rui truly resembled his father. Shangguan Ning was d. She felt that Jing Yichen was the most handsome man in the world, and if their son resembled him, then he would naturally look good.
Zhao Anan suddenly felt that having a baby was not such a bad thing, as she saw the lovely and cute little thing in her arms.
As he grows older, he would start to walk, and talk. Then the entire home would be filled withughter and love.
She had never thought that rearing a baby would be fun, because children were usually noisy and irritating.
But holding Jing Rui in her arms made her suddenly realize that they could also be angelic, lovely and adorable.
Was it because Jing Rui was her nephew? Or because Jing Rui was such a docile boy that she also wanted to have one too?
The idea startled Zhao Anan.
She had never thought about giving birth to babies. For one thing, it was because she did not like children that much, and for another, she knew the condition that she was in. She might never be able to give birth to a baby and even if she did, she may have to leave the child alone in this world if her tumor returned.
A child without a mother was never going to be happy. Look at Jing Yichen who had lost his mother when he was young, and even Shangguan Ning who lost hers, early.
Zhao Anan suppressed the idea. But she did not want to let go of Jing Rui and stuck to him for long.
She was thinking that she could treat Jing Rui as her own son, spoil him and watch him grow up!
Chapter 508 - Back from the Dead (Part One)
Chapter 508: Back from the Dead (Part One)
The breeze blew gently, brushing the white curtain away. The curtain danced like a happy elf. As the sunlight shone through the window, piercing and warm, it woke up a soul that had been in slumber for a very long time.
He was feeling hazy and had scattered memories. For a second, he almost forgot who he really was.
He felt that he had been sleeping for a long time, but could not wake up because of a nightmare.
In the nightmare, there was a storm, and lightning striking down with thunder. There was also a beautiful baby face and a bullet that hit straight into his head between the eyebrows.
The scattered pieces of memories suddenly burst into his head, and the piercing pain made him nearly faint again.
A familiar scent of candy was around him and a gentle sound of sighing echoed in his ears.
Who was it?
Why could he not remember anything?
He felt that the sweet scent of candy was drifting away from him, and he wanted to hold onto it as he shouted in his heart. Dont go, please dont go! Stay with me.
But that familiar scent did not seem to have heard his hysterical shouting. She left anyway.
Soon he was thrown into the endless solitude and coldness. He did not feel warm even with sunshine upon him.
He quieted himself down.
Slowly, the memory surged in, and ced the scattered pieces together so that he remembered what was going on with his life.
As the stinging pain throbbed in his head, he could not help but wake up.
He did not care about the pain anymore because he had remembered everything.
Jing Yiran opened his eyes, and the light made him close his eyes immediately.
He shaded his eyes and slowly opened them again.
As the fresh air entered his lungs, he suddenly felt the joy of being alive.
He was still alive?
He was alive!
He was not dead!
Jing Yiran tried to get up, slowly and stiffly. He had obviously slept for a very long time.
He felt very weak, but nothing else. Maybe he had not eaten for a long time but he didnt feel hungry.
It did not matter, nothing mattered. As long as he was still alive, nothing else mattered. He could start afresh!
He was never going to forget the moment when the bullet entered his forehead.
He had been killed by Jing Yichen.
Although he was not sure how he survived, the old version of Jing Yiran was dead.
Jing Yiran could not think properly because of the stinging pain.
He calmed himself and surveyed his surroundings, looking outside the window.
The room was concise and neat, with white walls, white curtains and white nket. It looked as if he were in a hospital, but he could not smell the antiseptic solution.
Outside the window, thewn was green on which colorful flowers were blooming quietly, attracting numerous butterflies and bees.
Jing Yiran leaned against the wall feebly, saw the needles on the back side of his hand and the fluid dripping into his body.
Who on earth would want him to be alive? Who would want to save him despite everything?
That sweet scent of candy seemed to linger on the tip of his nose, making him feel happy.
Lu, what a silly girl you are!
Didnt you hate me?
I used you, still you pulled me away from death. How should I repay you?
It was a huge debt.
Jing Yiran closed his eyes gently, breathing the fresh air and allowing himself to be bathed in the warm sunshine, feeling as if he had just been reborn.
A long timeter, the door was opened and a small figure entered.
The small figure paused when she saw the handsome man sitting in bed.
She gained herposure quickly, came to the bedside and said in her unique baby-voice, You are awake.
Jing Yiran opened his eyes, and that made the figure standing by the bedside slightly startled.
He opened his mouth and said with a hoarse yet charming voice, My baby, long time no see, have you been missing me?
That intimate way of speaking, together with the unique tone and the sexy voice could make any woman fall for this man at this moment.
Lus heart skipped a beat, but soon she suppressed the feeling and replied calmly, No, I see you every day.
Jing Yiran sized up this little woman who had saved his life.
She was wearing ck, tight-fitting clothes, showcasing her beautiful and sexy figure. Her long hair was tied behind, she had no makeup on her face, looking like an eighteen year old girl.
However, she was dangerous and that could not be ignored, especially when she had a gun in her leather d hands.
She just pretended to be pure. Inside was a killer hidden.
Jing Yirans pupils shrank and he said with a nonchnt smile. You look good in this outfit, better than the baggy sportswear you wore before. This fits you well!
Lu threw a look at him expressionlessly and said in a crispy voice, Really?
Jing Yiran nodded. Of course!
Since you are awake, I can get you something to eat. What do you want?
Lu put the gun in her hands onto the belt around the waist. This simple move was smooth and looked absolutely natural on her. Apparently, she had done this many times.
Jing Yiran leaned against the wall and said casually, Since my head is injured, I want to eat something to fill up the head. I want to eat tofu!
Lu showed a faint smile, turned around to walk outside as she said calmly, I thought that you wanted to eat a human brain. We are in a foreignnd, but we have soybean milk, which you can drink now!
Jing Yiran was displeased. There is a huge difference between tofu and soybean milk. You cant treat a seriously injured patient so casually.
They are from the same family, born by the same beans and have the same effects. That will help your pig-like head.
Jing Yiran suddenly smiled. Looking at Lus slender figure, he said softly, Thank you, Lu.
Lu did not cease walking but replied calmly, You are wee, Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran stared at her and when she was about to walk out of the door, he said nonchntly, Or should I say, thank you, Angel?
Chapter 509 - Back from the Dead (Part Two)
Chapter 509: Back from the Dead (Part Two)
Lu stood transfixed. After a moment, she shut the door behind her and turned around slowly.
She looked at Jing Yiran who looked pale yet charming.
You finally remember what my real name is.
The faces are different, but the way you are dressed today is the same as the way you were dressed that day at Family Jing. I did get hit on my forehead, but I am not stupid. I can hardly ignore your look and air, Angel.
So the charming look I sawst time was fake. No wonder no one was able to catch you. Who would ever expect that a little girl with an innocent face and a baby-voice hopping around with a lollipop would be the most wanted woman killer in the entire world? I knew that I had seen you somewhere before, but I couldnt remember it. That is because the face I saw on that asion was a fake one.
Jing Yiran looked like he was smiling, but he was not.
The second best killer in the world, the only woman in the list of top 10 killers and the most beautiful killer in the world. Oh my Lu, why do you have so many titles? I am startled! I have just woken up from aa and you gave me such a big surprise. I may pass out because of this shock.
Jing Yiran was indeed shocked.
He had never expected that an angel-like woman would turn out to be the most lethal killer, Angel!
In the field of killers, each killer had his own nickname. The top one was said to be a man in his thirties, one whose nickname was the God of Death.
And the second one was nicknamed Angel.
There was some information avable about these killers on the web. The famous ones even had photos and basic information. However, most of those pictures were false.
A top hitman who was hidden in the darkness would never expose his real look.
The more skilled a killer was, the more ordinary he might look in real life.
Lu, for example, remained well hidden because of her split personality. She did not even need any disguise.
Thest time Jing Yiran saw Angel, he was at the Jing Family, and she had been summoned by Jing Zhongxiu.
Apparently, Jing Zhongxiu had been aware of who Lu really was, ages ago.
Maybe, even Jing Yichen was aware of who Lu was. He had been the only person who did not know about her.
That distressed Jing Yiran. If she hadnt dressed in these clothes today, he may still not have recognized her.
Jing Zhongxiu never told him any confidential information about Family Jing, and he knew nothing just like an idiot!
Lu looked at Jing Yiran with her seemingly innocent and disyed a lethal smile that was not supposed to appear on a lovely face like that. So? Are you scared? I told you that you would surely be obedient if you knew who I was.
Scared? I have been dead once and I have nothing to fear anymore. Jing Yiran came back to himself, stretched out one finger and massaged his stinging forehead. He sneered sinisterly. Also, you wanted me to live. You spared no efforts to save me. Hehe, my baby, you did not want me to die, did you?
You were just lucky to have survived the bullet. An urrence like this has really low probability. I have nothing to do with it. Lu sounded crisp yet calm. She was not iming any credit.
But Jing Yiran did not believe what Lu said.
Had it not been for Lu, he would not have survived. Had it not been because of the medical treatment which she arranged for him, he would have lost his life before his brain could recover.
He patted the bed and smiled softly, Come here, let me take a closer look at you!
Lu did not move. She said, The bullet in your head has not been taken out yet. So you better not move. If the bullet touches any nerve, you will be in living hell.
Jing Yiran stiffened. He felt his forehead and spoke with a frown, The bullet is not out? So, I have a ticking bomb in my head?
Yes. Lu felt better when she saw him losing the air of arrogance. She even sounded gentle.
Ticking bomb might not be the right word, but before it is removed, you are surely in danger. You better not make too many fast moves. When your brain stabilises, we need to find a professional doctor to open your head to take the bullet out. Now is not the time, and we do not have the money for that, either.
Money?
Jing Yiran got startled. He had never been worried about money since he was young.
But he had many hidden properties and savings. If he could gain them back...
Dont ever think about your old stuff. Lu seemed to have seen through him, so she told him sternly. Jing Yiran is dead, now you have a new identity.
She tossed an ID card towards Jing Yiran.
On the ID card, it showed that his name was Stephen, an American.
Jing Yiran looked at the ID card that symbolized his whole new identity, failing to utter a word.
You should not have survived when the bullet entered your head. Everyone thinks that you are already dead. So you better think of yourself in that way. This new identity can keep you safe for a while. As long as you do not ask for trouble, trouble will note to you.
You are not allowed to touch any of your old properties and you can not spend one single penny from your previous wealth, otherwise the Jing Family would get to know immediately. I do not think that Jing Yichen would give up looking for you if he knows that you are not dead. You better make use of your life that you almost lost. One more bullet, and you may not recover.
Seeing Jing Yiran frowning heavily and looking furious, Lu spoke in a soft voice, Jing Yiran, I will only save you once. I took a great risk. Do not disappoint me any more, or I will never ever save you again or might not even be able to.
Chapter 510 - Depending on Each Other
Chapter 510: Depending on Each Other
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Jing Yiran got slightly startled and then said instantly, I will not need your help in future, and I will never make the same mistake.
Good, then I think that you better smarten up and stop irritating your enemy whom you are not capable of dealing with. The bullet in your head is your biggest enemy, because it will keep pressing down your nerves. Pain is not important. What matters is that as time goes by, you may turn into a vegetable.
Jing Yiran got startled. Vegetable?
What you need to do right now is to make some money, big money! I know a doctor who is good at brain surgeries. He has taken out bullets from three peoples heads and only two out of them died, so he is a rtively sessful doctor but he charges a high fee.
Two out of three dead?! So there was only a 30% chance that he will be able to live on.
Jing Yiran truly thought that Lu was being flippant about the whole thing. Maybe she was the one with the bullet in her head?
I remember that Mu Qings brain surgery has a sess rate of over 90%. Which doctor is this? Is he reliable?
Although Jing Yiran did not like Mu Qing, he couldnt deny his skills. Jing Yiran knew that someone had to have some gift to be a good doctor. Mu Qing was young and gifted, and being Mu Wenshengs grandson made him even more excellent.
Lu threw a calm look at him. Alright, if you dont like my doctor, you can go to Mu Qing to take out the bullet. After imprisoning Zhao Anan for half a year, Mu Qing will surely take out your brain when he is extracting that bullet for you.
Jing Yiran was already aware of how bloody the scene would get, if that really happened.
Mu Qing was definitely going to do it.
But Jing Yiran never expected that Mu Qing would do the surgery for him. He was just making aparison.
Mu Qing was full of evil ideas. He had given him the needle because of which he became incapable of doing anything for one whole year!
Good that he had recovered from the problem, otherwise he would have had to go to Mu Qing again.
Jing Yiran could not help but feel goosebumps on his body when he thought of the long, thin silver needle.
I am definitely not going to Mu Qing to take the bullet out for me! Jing Yiran sounded determined, but soon he said with distress, But the 30% sess rate is way too low. One out of three is able to live. I may as well choose to leave the bullet inside so that I can live for two more years as a vegetative man.
Lu red at him in anger. Do you think that brain surgery is an easy job? Mu Qing has conducted sessful brain surgeries only because he has been devoted to the study of tumors for a long time. You have a bullet, not a tumor or a blood clot, and the sess rate is of course very low! That makes him a doctor with the highest sessful rate amongst those I know. Or you can choose to give up the surgery and wait until you go into aa.
Jing Yiran could not believe what he just heard. As far as he knew, tumor surgery in the brain was the surgery with highest difficulty, because the brain wasplicated and one careless slip would lead toplications. Those who can do the surgery should be extremely skilled and experienced.
Taking out a bullet is definitely easier than removing a tumor. Tumor creeps over the entire brain and is very difficult to remove itpletely from the brain! Bullet stays as one piece and extracting it is very easy.
So now you know about medicine? Lu snapped at him. You just know how to talk. If you are capable, you can do it yourself. Easier to talk than act. You are not a doctor!
Jing Yiran fell silent.
He really was just a talker, but he knew that it was rted to his own life and he would not want to put himself in the hands of a doctor whom he did not trust.
Alright, lets leave it aside for now. Judging from the current situation, I wont be a vegetative man, immediately. Lets try to make some money instead.
Jing Yiran got really furious that he had turned poor within one night, so he kept scratching his head. But suddenly he remembered that he could not make any agitated fast movements, he withdrew his hands and made a fist.
He could not do anything without money!
He could not allow Lu, a woman, to support him. It was not something he would ept.
What was more, he knew that Lu was a killer and survived on killing contracts.
A killer could make a great deal of money, but the job was very risky.
He did not want Lu to take the risk.
It seemed that he and Lu were dependent on each other. If anything happened to Lu, he would be left alone in this world.
The feeling of being left alone was too scary, and Jing Yiran instantly rejected it in his heart.
He owed a lot to Lu and did not want to owe her anything more.
Leave the money making to me. Dont kill any more.
Oh really? You think that I am earning dirty money? Lu sounded chilly, a bit different from how she spoke a moment ago.
Jing Yiran felt his head hurt, so he failed to notice the strangeness in her voice and snapped. Are you stupid? Since when did I think that you are making dirty money. I have known you for being cold and bloody for a long time. Stop saying those stupid words. I am not in a mood for this nonsense.
Lu got startled by his aggressiveness. She stared at him and didnt say anything more. But she no longer looked so cold.
Jing Yiran got quite energetic when he, for the first time, managed to subdue her.
So Lu preferred to be treated in this way?
Then he better act even more fiercely!
You just live a steady life from now on rather than running around. Is it fun when you are wanted across the entire world? If I can discover your real identity, so can others.
You think too little of me. Confidence hovered over Lus baby-face. If I dont want to be discovered, then no one will discover me. Even if I am discovered, he who knows me will have to die. Only three people know of my real identity so far.
Jing Yiran knew which three C Jing Zhongxiu, Jing Yichen and himself.
You trust me so much? Jing Yiran got a bit excited.
No, I do not.
Lus cold words ttened Jing Yirans excitement.
Chapter 511 - Bloodbath
Chapter 511: Bloodbath
Then why did you tell me about your real identity? Arent you worried that I will sell you out? Your identity is worth hundreds of millions, and a little information to the FBI will earn me a great deal of money.
Oh, you are surely going to gain a great deal of money, but you wont be able to use even a single penny of it.
There was no change in her expressions as if she were just stating something minor. I will kill you the moment you get the money. I have been trained very well and as one of the best killers in the world, killing you is as easy as squatting a fly!
It was a fact, but she did not have to put it out so bluntly.
Jing Yiran was well aware of his own situation. He was not a match against Lu and he would not betray Lu, either.
You can trust me. I may not be a nice man and sometimes I can be very mean. But I know how to be grateful. Your death will do me no good, so I will not betray you, instead Ill protect you.
Lu was not moved by what Jing Yiran said.
In this world, a mans word was always promising, and also unreliable.
The reason why she did not try to conceal her identity in front of Jing Yiran was only because she did not treat Jing Yiran as a threat. It had never been because of anything rted to trust or emotions.
So you told Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen about your identity because you trust them? Jing Yiran was not convinced. He felt that he was more reliable than either of them.
Of course not! Lu denied calmly. Jing Zhongxiu was one of the reasons why I became a killer. I stayed With Family Jing because I owe them a lot.
Jing Yiran got startled. Could it have been Jing Zhongxiu who turned you into a killer? Why do you owe him anything?! Do you enjoy being a killer?
Jing Zhongxiu has nothing to do with me being a killer. I owe him for something else. I chose to be a killer and no one else affected my decision. And, I have never regretted choosing this path.
Only killing could make her feel normal.
Only the scent of blood could make her stay rational.
She had been avoiding her past for really long now. Only by constantly killing people would she be able to console her soul.
It gave her strength and kept her rational. Without the stimtion of blood, she would turn into an innocent fourteen year old child.
She was only able to find her true self through killing, and had a sharp instinct when it came to danger.
When she was going through the training in the organization of killers, she was normal all the time and the innocent Lu had never surfaced at that time.
Killing was definitely the most suitable profession for her!
Jing Yiran stared at this calm and determined woman and suddenly felt that he had been living a much happier lifepared to her.
He had no idea what hardships had Lu faced that she became so devoted to killing and developed a split personality.
Obviously, she had no family.
If the rumor was true, then Lus parents had really been killed by her.
Jing Yiran knew Lu well. She might be a killer, but she did not kill people randomly. She only killed her target and would not care if there was anyone else who was evil.
Jing Yiran felt that maybe her current condition was rted to her parents death.
But it was her deepest and most painful secret, hence Jing Yiran did not probe any further.
Instead, he asked her with a soft voice, What is your real name?
Without looking at him, Lu raised her head and looked out of the window. She said calmly, Oh, yes, what is my real name? It has been too long for me to remember it. Lu is good, and Shangguan Lu sounds nice too, clean and pretty, fitting her well.
Jing Yiran knew that the her Lu referred to was the other version in her body.
For some reason, he was upset.
At first, he had thought that the world was treating him unfairly. He had been born to be detested since his birth, and he did not have any choice.
If it were possible, he would rather not have been born.
He was the unwanted one in the Jing Family!
Jing Yichen, the perfect heir of the Jing Family, was the only one who was needed.
Most of the time, Jing Yiran hated Mo Lan for having given him the right to be born. If it had not been for her, he would not have been put into shade by Jing Yichen and lose in front of him or not receive even a bit of fatherly love from Jing Zhongxiu.
Everything of the Jing Family belonged to Jing Yichen and he never got any properties or glory.
In the Jing Family, his position was poles apart from that of Jing Yichens. Everyone called Jing Yichen Master and only when the two of them were together, he was addressed as Elder Master. It sounded as if the Second Master didnt exist.
Jing Yiran had thought that his life was a tragedy and that he had gone through a great deal of misery.
Butpared to Lu, he had led a happy life!
He believed that Lu surely remembered her real name, but she just did not want to say it.
Her real name carried the miserable memories of her past and probably she would not want to be reminded of them.
He and Lu were people with no luck, and probably Lu cared about him because he had lived a terrible life, as well.
Jing Yiran suddenly pulled off the needle from the back of his hand, and stood up. He stumbled towards Lu and swept her into his arms.
She stiffened and wanted to push Jing Yiran away.
Jing Yiran, however, held her tightly and spoke in a low voice, Stay still! Let me hold you in my arms for a little while. I am not taking advantage of you. I am just consoling you. When I am sad, you must hold me too and give me some warmth, okay?
Lu did not reply, but she stopped pushing him away.
She was not used to this kind of behaviour, so she stood stiffly.
Jing Yiran continued speaking gently. Rx, dont be so nervous! I wont eat you up. Lean your head against my chest, rx your arms. What is wrong with you? Why are your fists so tightly clenched? Stretch your hands and hold my waist...
Lu could not stand it any more and pushed Jing Yiran away.
She used so much force that Jing Yiran fell backwards.
Fearing that he would hit his head, Lu stretched out her arms to stop his fall.
As a result, they ended up being in each others arms.
Chapter 512 - Argument
Chapter 512: Argument
Jing Yiran was quite weak, so he held onto Lu and said shamelessly, You look very thin, but you are quite plump. Supple andfortable. I can hold you in arms during my sleep tonight.
Lu was not moved by his flirty words. With a calm expression, she pushed him off. Go back to bed and lie down. You are not a man enough.
She turned around and walked out of the room, leaving Jing Yiran alone in the room feeling angry.
I am not a man enough? You damn girl, are you so great because you are a killer? So severe you are. No one will ever marry you!
Jing Yiran bellowed at Lu but felt his body getting weaker and head aching even more. He went back to the bed and fell asleep.
Half an hourter, Lu returned with food in her hands.
Apart from the soybean milk, she got a fast food set meal as well.
Lu was not fussy about food. She only expected it to fill her stomach.
Jing Yiran was used to exquisitely-made food, so he didnt even look at the fast food set. He drank the soybean milk and frowned as he said, Miss. Lu, are you giving a patient this kind of food? It is way too reckless!
Lu, however, replied calmly, No, this is mine. That cup of soybean milk is yours.
Jing Yiran stared at therge pile of hamburger, chicken wings and chips and asked in astonishment, You can eat so much? Why does my memory tell me that you only eat candy and chocte?
Those are just snacks. I get cranky when I dont eat, so I... no, she would keep eating candy to feel energetic. Where do you think I get so much strength from?
Jing Yiran watched Lu finishing one hamburger after another and suddenly thought that the hamburgers looked delicious.
He reached out for one but got hit by Lu. You were in aa for a week and have just woken up. One cup of soybean milk is enough for you. Any more food may ruin your stomach.
Jing Yiran was extremely displeased. He also wanted to eat a hamburger.
You didnt eat this much at my home. Why so much food now?
I did eat this much when I was at your home, it was just that you didnt know anything about it.
You.... Jing Yiran pointed at Lu, too startled to utter a word.
She was indeed the biggest foodie in the world. She simply ate too much!
How did her small-sized body hold in so much food?
It was pure torture for Jing Yiran to watch others eating whilst he got nothing.
Jing Yiran had no choice and climbed back onto the bed, ignoring Lu.
He was still weak, so he fell asleep instantly after lying down.
When he woke up at midnight, he saw Lu sitting by his bedside, watching him attentively.
Lu withdrew her look, got up and walked away when she saw Jing Yiran wake up.
Jing Yiran suddenly took hold of her soft hand. Dont leave.
Lu paused and sat back down.
Jing Yiran did not let go of her hand and said in a low voice, Your hands are freezing. Where have you been?
Nowhere.
If she had not been anywhere, Lu would not have said a word. Jing Yiran had long been aware of the fact that Lu was a terrible liar.
You killed someone?
Lu got startled and admitted it. Yes, I took an order and collected 1/3rd of your surgery fees.
Jing Yiran suddenly got furious and said angrily, I told you not to care about the surgery fees. Cant you just stay still? I can make money myself. I dont want you to risk your life for the money.
Lu was surprised but she did not change her expression. Killing is my profession and it will be a waste if I dont use it. I wont die. We better get enough money for your surgery. When you are cured, you can lead a normal life. I did have a lot of savings, but I cant use them, because Jing Yichen might get suspicious.
Jing Yiran could not help but get angry. To hell with normal life! I have not taken my revenge yet. I cant let bygones be bygones when Jing Yichen is not dead. Why must I live like an outcast? Jing Yichen must die!
Jing Yiran, I had thought that you would cherish your life after you experienced death. Lu sounded cold. It is all in the past. You almost caused Shangguan Ning and her childs death and you imprisoned Zhao Anan. You gave the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise to others. You and Jing Yichen are even now after he put a bullet into your head.
She pulled her hand away from Jing Yirans, stood up and said, You are not a match against him, and your death has proved it. I will not help you any more, if you are still confused.
Jing Yirans voice sounded cold too. How do you know that I am not a match against Jing Yichen? I made a mistakest time. Now when he has his guard down, I can surely kill him!
Lu closed her eyes in exhaustion. When she opened them again, she was calm.
I will not allow you to kill him, nor will I allow you to touch Shangguan Ning and her child. Will your life get better, if Jing Yichen is killed? No, it will get worse! Unless you can kill Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan as well.
Why dont you stop him when he tries to kill me, but stop me when I kill him? Jing Yiranid on the bed and looked upset. The atmosphere was very intense in the room now.
First of all, I was hired by Jing Zhongxiu and I am responsible to keep Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning safe. Secondly, I am not a match against Jing Yichen even if I try to stop him. Thirdly, you deserve death for what you have done.
Jing Yiran got struck by what Lu said. But he was not convinced and showed a distorted expression on his face as he said, You better kill me now, or when I recover, I will definitely go and kill Jing Yichen. I will not stop until either one of us dies.
Lu lowered his head and said calmly, You always lived for the sake of others and have spent your entire life fighting against Jing Yichen whilst as a matter of fact, you are not even a rival in Jing Yichens eyes. You have messed up your life, but he lives a steady and happy one. You are a loser in this aspect!
He is living a steady and happy life? Alright then, I will go and ruin it!
Chapter 513 - Liar
Chapter 513: Liar
After Mo Lan was knocked out by Lu, she stayed at the hospital for a week.
Actually, she recovered the following day, but in order to keep her away from all the mess, Jing Tianyuan forced her to stay for one more week at the hospital. Old people like them would always end up having problems even if they recovered.
What was more, Mo Lan had spent too much energy upon Jing Yiran earlier and was extremely tired. Her physical examination showed that several of her physical functions were affected adversely.
No one told her about Jing Yirans death. She did not even know about Shangguan Nings childbirth until after she was discharged from hospital.
When she was hospitalized, Jing Yichen did not visit her even once. Jing Zhongxiu visited her once, but the mother and son had such a cold rtionship now that Jing Zhongxiu left after telling her to rest well.
Jing Tianyuan kept his wifepany for a couple of days, but they kept quarreling all the time. Mo Lan wanted Jing Yiran to return to the family whilst Jing Tianyuan turned down the proposal, tly.
It was not until Jing Tianyuan told Mo Lan about Jing Yiran threatening Jing Yichen to hand out the shares and rights of inheritance by kidnapping Shangguan Ning, did Mo Lan stop babbling.
Mo Lan believed that children were the most important beings. She wanted Family Jing to be full of lovely children and their siblings.
So when she was told that Jing Yiran pushed Shangguan Ning off the bridge resulting in premature birth of the baby, she did feel that Jing Yiran should be held responsible.
After she was discharged from the hospital, she decided to lecture her grandson but she found out that he was gone.
She felt fear surging into her body. She was worried that Jing Yiran had been beaten to death by Jing Yichen. Jing Yiran made such a huge mistake this time, and it was very likely that Jing Yichen would have killed him.
But Mo Lan did not go to Jing Yichen. Instead, she went to confront Jing Tianyuan who was staying at Mu Wenshengs home.
Old man, where is my grandson? Did you kill him?!
Mo Lan felt that Jing Yiran would not have run away without leaving a trace. He never feared anyone even if he had been in dispute with someone, unless he was... already dead!
Jing Yiran didnt visit her even once during her time in the hospital and that was also very unusual. Jing Yiran would always visit her and take care of her even at the slightest difort.
Mo Lan could not remember how she had passed out. All she remembered was bringing many things to Jing Yirans and then fainting at his house. When she woke up, she was already in the hospital. From that day on, Mo Lan had not seen Jing Yiran.
She had a hunch that something bad had happened. It was such a strong hunch that she did not even want to visit her great-grandson but went to Jing Tianyuan to demand an answer. Had Jing Yiran really been killed by the men of the family?
Jing Tianyuan did not tell her that Jing Yichen had put a bullet into his head. He was very irritated and bellowed even louder than Mo Lan. Old woman, your grandson almost killed my great-grandson! It is already nice of me not to cause him trouble. Watch your tone in front of me!
He did make a mistake in that matter, and he should be beaten or lectured, but he should not die. He has no mother and his father has thrown him out of the house. Who else would care about him if I do not show any concern?
Seeing Jing Tianyuans strong reaction, Mo Lan suddenly felt that what she had believed might not be true. Maybe Jing Yiran did run away. But that was not what he would normally do.
Jing Tianyuan had been married to Mo Lan for decades, and knew her temper well. Judging from her tone, he understood that her belief had been shaken. So he bellowed furiously, Your grandson ispletely ungrateful. We have never owed him anything or taken anything away from him. But he robbed Yichen of his shares, aimed at Ning with a gun, forcing Yichen to write the deration that he will never be able to inherit anything from the Jing Family. Do you still think that he is human? You better keep him well hidden, or I will y him alive when I see him.
He made Mo Lan take the me for Jing Yirans absence.
Sure enough, Mo Lan was hooked. She thought that Jing Yiran hid himself because he did not want to be found by Jing Tianyuan or Jing Zhongxiu.
After quarreling with Jing Tianyuan, she left.
Mu Wensheng had been watching the show this entire time. After Mo Lan took off, he started tough loudly, Jing Tianyuan, you are a very good liar! Your wife was fooled. I have to watch out for you in the future in case you sell me out somehow. No one from your family is reliable!
Jing Tianyuan, however, did not find that funny. He was very furious!
In his opinion, Jing Yiran deserved to die for what he had done, otherwise Family Jing would be ruined in his hands.
If Mo Lan got to know that Jing Yichen had killed Jing Yichen, she would have made a fuss and could even faint because of anger. That was why he had to make up a lie.
After spending so many years with Mo Lan, Jing Tianyuan understood that even if she was like this, they were, after all, a couple and he must not allow Mo Lan to suffer anymore due to that bastard.
Mo Lan reached Landscape Compound with the servants after she left Mu Wenshengs.
After she was convinced that Jing Yiran ran away on his own, she felt relieved. So she went to visit Jing Rui.
After Mo Lan arrived, Jing Yichen treated her coldly and stayed silent in front of her.
Shangguan Ning, however, greeted her with a smile. Mo Lan was, after all, the great-grandma, and she could tell that she loved Jing Rui a great deal and even brought many toys and food for him.
Those small clothes and shoes were all exquisite and precious, so Mo Lan must have been preparing for this day for a very long time.
Mo Lan held her great-grandson in her arms and felt a bit guilty. She wanted to apologize to Shangguan Ning for Jing Yirans misbehavior, but she was also worried that mentioning Jing Yiran would make the atmosphere awkward. So she didnt bring up the topic, eventually.
Shangguan Ning did not mention anything about Jing Yiran, either. Since he was dead, and all was in the past, she was not going to make it awkward with grandma.
Jing Yichen, however, did not show a happy face to Mo Lan. He behaved as if he were looking at a stranger. That made Mo Lan feel extremely ufortable.
Chapter 514 - Still Alive
Chapter 514: Still Alive
After Shangguan Ning gave birth to Jing Rui, many people visited her. Apart from Mo Lan who kept visiting her despite Jing Yichens cold face, Huang Lihan had visited her twice and Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun had been to their home many times.
Zheng Lun felt very motherly when she saw little Jing Rui. She did not want to release him.
She loved children, and Jing Rui, who had soft skin, looked lovely with his small, rosy hands and feet.
Shangguan Ning teased Zheng Lun. Give birth to one if you like him so much!
It was just a joke, but it made Zheng Lun flush, instantly. She could hardly utter a word.
Zheng Jing was slightly embarrassed as well, but he was much moreposed than Zheng Lun and soon regained his normal expression and started ying with Jing Rui.
Seeing them together, Shangguan Ning felt that they were trying to keep a distance from each other. They had a weird expression on their faces, intimate yet trying to hide it.
Shangguan Ning shook her head. She had a feeling that she, as an outsider, could not put a hand in their affairs.
Zheng Lun was a rare girl with a kind heart. She might not be very social, but she was really talented. She was definitely going to be a good wife in the future, a gentle and virtuous one.
No wonder Zheng Jings heart was caught by such a gentle and beautiful girl.
However, they were in a very precarious situation where they tried to stay in the rtionship as a brother and a sister.
Shangguan Ning did not have much energy to think about them. Zhao Anan was the one who worried her.
Since she could not go out during the first month of the childbirth, she asked Zhao Anan toe home every day, trying to see if Zhao Anan had some thoughts about her future with Mu Qing.
Zhao Anan did not answer her straightaway, yet she did not sound as certain as before about not wanting to marry Mu Qing.
So if she did not mention about not marrying Mu Qing, could it be that she was willing to atleast consider marrying him?
Shangguan Ning did not dare force Zhao Anan any more, in case she caused her to be rebellious again.
But Shangguan Ning had her own methods to deal with Zhao Anan, and she was nearly sure that her methods would work out.
But she needed Mu Qing to coborate with her and also needed other peoples help. She nned to attack Zhao Anan out of sudden after she finished the first months confinement period.
Shangguan Ning felt very pleased with her n. This girl had done way too much harm to the people around. Look at Mu Qing, he had lost so much weight because of her.
Also, Mu Qing had been lectured severely by Grandpa Mu since he returned. He had been removed from the position of the director of the Mu Hospital, and Mu Tong took over instead. As a result, Mu Qing had to work for Mu Tong and that humiliated him deeply and everyone at the hospital were really curious about what on earth happened to their old director.
He had been missing for half a year and when he returned, he had tanned and be skinny. On top of that, he was removed from the position of director. People guessed that Mu Qing must have made a huge mistake and was punished by the Mu Family!
Shangguan Ning felt that Mu Qing had suffered way too much just to marry Zhao Anan, so now she was going to team up with Mu Qing to deal with Zhao Anan once and for all.
Jing Yichen knew that Shangguan Ning wanted to hook Zhao Anan up with Mu Qing. But he was not paying much attention to this matter.
He paid no attention to anything or anyone apart from Shangguan Ning and Jing Rui. He asked no questions about the love affairs between Zhao Anan and Mu Qing, or Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun.
He was a distant man and showed no passion towards others love rtionships or gossip. He had no interest in being a matchmaker.
He spent most of his energy upon work apart from caring about how much Shangguan Ning had recovered and how well Jing Rui was growing up.
He was the heir of the family, so he was burdened with work and needed to regain the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise and the deration.
Jing Yichen was also looking for Yang Muyan apart from these tasks.
Both Yang Muyan and the deration were gone!
This was not good news for Jing Yichen.
She might have sensed Ji Bos shift in allegiance and realised that Family Ji would not defend her any more.
Jing Yichen had been operating in both legal and illegal fields, but had never met any woman or even a man who was as tricky, smart and intuitive as Yang Muyan.
Yang Muyan had been hailed as a genius since she was young. She had a photographic memory apart from being intelligent. A lethal woman would cause unimaginable trouble if she attacked.
Yang Muyan was out for the blood of Family Jing. One of them had to die, and that was going to be Yang Muyan.
Jing Yichen spent half a month searching for Yang Muyan but failed. But he found a piece of unexpected news during the search of this woman C Jing Yiran was not dead!
What did you say? Repeat!
Jing Yichen had never been this shocked. He didnt doubt what Tiger told him but he was finding it very hard to believe.
He had stood in front of Jing Yiran, and pulled the trigger himself. He had waited until he stopped breathing.
How was it possible that he was still alive?
It was very rare that a man could live on after the bullet went through his forehead.
Tiger also found it very incredible, but he went to check the scene after receiving the information. He described what he had seen to his boss, despite his disbelief.
Master, I did see the Second Master! He is in the USA now. When our men were searching for Yang Muyan, we saw Lu bringing a huge suitcase to a ship. Our men saw her often enough for us to be suspicious. She kept shifting from one ship to another rather than taking the ne, and that ck suitcase which she was carrying was asrge as a man!
Tiger looked very serious. He could not understand how Jing Yiran survived.
I sent a man to the ce where Lu buried the Second Master. The ash we took out turned out to be someone elses, not Second Masters!
Chapter 515 - Will (Part One)
Chapter 515: Will (Part One)
The Jing Family had the DNA data of Jing Yiran and testing the ash would confirm their doubts.
Jing Yichen calmed himself down. He was still frowning but his expression had smoothened out.
He asked Tiger calmly, Did you see him with your own eyes? Are you sure about this?
Tiger nodded. I saw him with my own eyes. He has the same appearance as Second Master, and ording to the description of hospital staff, he has the same personality as him, as well. But I did not approach him, fearing that I might draw his attention. Lu was following him all the time and our men could not get any closer. So we are not 100% sure if he is really the Second Master. But we can get a strand of his hair and do a DNA test for further confirmation.
Tiger was an honest man, but he was also very discreet, just like Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen stayed silent for a moment and then said, You do not need to do anything any more. He is Jing Yiran, for sure! He had urately guessed that Jing Yiran was still alive.
Tiger also believed the same. No one else in the world, unless twins, would look so much like each other.
Master, should we do something about it?
What Tiger meant was whether Jing Yiran should be killed or not. Jing Yichen shook his head. No need for the time being. We dont need too many of our men present there, either. Do not want to let Jing Yiran find them. He is not a big threat at the moment. Just focus your energy upon finding Yang Muyan. As soon as she is spotted, she needs to be killed immediately.
Jing Yichen was not showing any mercy towards Jing Yiran. He was a ruthless man and had never regarded Jing Yiran as his younger brother. He would not hesitate to kill Jing Yiran when needed.
Jing Yichen was worried about Lus presence.
He knew who Lu really was and her capabilities.
She was an absolute killing machine. Obviously, she was protecting Jing Yiran and before Jing Yiran did anything of his own ord, his men should not take the initiative, otherwise the casualty number would berge.
Jing Yichen did not want his men to die for nothing. When Lu went on a killing spree, she did not blink even once. When she was threatened, she would shoot without hesitation before escaping from the scene, leaving no one alive.
Jing Yichen did not believe that after being shot in the head, Jing Yiran could live freely as a normal man. He also did not believe that after returning from near death, Jing Yiran would put the past behind him. He had taken his life and Jing Yiran would surelye looking for him to take revenge. So, he was not in a hurry. Jing Yiran would find him on his own and he was fairly confident about dealing with Jing Yiran. They had been fighting against each other for so many years and he knew this man well.
For now, he needed to deal with the biggest danger C Yang Muyan.
As long as Yang Muyan was not imprisoned like how Zhao Anan had been, she would certainly have left some traces behind and that would help them find her.
Jing Yichen did not need to step forward to search for Yang Muyan himself. He had numerous men who could do that for him.
He needed to concentrate on regaining the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise.
He had found the man who had Jing Yirans will and he was going to take that man to Jing Yirans bank locker with him. Then he would tear apart the contract so the shares woulde back to Jing Yichens hands once again.
Even if the contract stayed in the locker, then also Jing Yichens shares would not be affected because the contract had not yet been submitted to the relevant authorities and Jing Yiran had not officially inherited these shares. Therefore, Jing Yichen was still the owner of these shares ording to the documented files.
But once the contract was taken out, the nominee of the will might make the shares someone elses, as long as he went to document the contract.
The nominee whom Jing Yiran had picked was the head of an underground mafia. His name was Hu Yi and was nicknamed Head Hu among the gangsters. He controlled the Gangster of the Locals, and as the name suggested, they dominated the local area.
The biggest gangster force of A City was the famous ck and Red Associate, but the head of ck and Red Associate had been more or less destroyed by Jing Yichen and the second inmand had been imprisoned and tortured to death by Jing Yichen. So, the third head was avoiding the Jing Family as if he was running away from a ghost.
Even a big gang like ck and Red Associate feared Jing Yichen. It wasnt surprising then that the Gangster of the Locals shivered when they heard Jing Yichens name.
Head Hu had known Jing Yiran for a long time and did a lot of business for him, like selling properties and antiques which Jing Yiran had gained from Mo Lan. Those things, when sold in the ck market, could fetch a very high price. Since ck market only needed money and did not care who the seller was, it was a rtively safe ce to do the trade.
Head Hu was a clever person. He did not dare get too close to Jing Yiran yet he did not stay away from him, either. Staying too close to him would make him an enemy of Jing Yichen and staying too far away from Jing Yiran would displease him. So he did what he could to maintain a bnce.
But he hadnt expected Jing Yiran to die and worse, to set him up before dying.
The gangs always had their ways of getting information, so many people were aware of the fact that the Second Master of Family Jing was dead and had been killed by the Elder Master, Jing Yichen!
Many people were also aware of the fact that before Jing Yiran died, he left a will transferring all the properties, shares of Jingsheng Enterprise and the rights of Jis Enterprise to someone else.
But they did not know who on earth was the lucky person to inherit such a tremendouslyrge amount of wealth!
Only Hu Yi knew that this amount of wealth that made people gasp, had fallen upon him and would probably kill him.
In the beginning, Hu Yi was not sure about him being the nominee. Jing Yichens men interrogated him about it which made him realise that he had gotten the pie.
But was it safe for anyone to take a bite out of the Jing Familys pie?
Even if Jing Yiran had given him one piece of the shares rather than what he had got right now, he would have been forced to deliver the shares back to Jing Yichen!
Any more dy, and he would have no head left.
He must be alive to enjoy the wealth, no?
Chapter 516 - Will (Part Two)
Chapter 516: Will (Part Two)
As the head of a mid-level gang, Hu Yi could get any kind of woman and fun that he wanted. He had been living a steady and happy life. So he did not need to get himself killed for the sake of money. If he had been an extremely ambitious person, Gangster of the Locals would not have stayed as a mid-level gang but be bigger like ck and Red Associates.
Hu Yi sought peace in life. He did not allow hisnd to be taken away nor did he go and snatch anyone elses share. That was how the bnce was maintained.
Therefore, when he was told that Jing Yiran had left him all the properties, he got so frightened that he almost bit off his own tongue.
There was only one man in the entire A City who could have lived after offending Jing Yichen, that was his half brother, Jing Yiran.
And now, Jing Yiran was dead too! Jing Yichen was capable of killing everyone.
Even his own brother!
Hu Yi also had a brother, and he had been doing some work for him in the gang. He thought of himself as a ruthless man after killing so many people. But he would never kill his own brother.
How ruthless Jing Yichen must be so as to have killed his own brother.
And, this ruthless man wasing to his door today.
Head Hu found unease creeping over his body. He had visited the toilet many times since he got to know that Jing Yichen was expected anytime now. He had been sweating and suffering from a headache as well. He was frightened!
Someone had informed him that he should get the will ready, and Jing Yichen would take him along to get the properties which Jing Yiran had left him.
The point was that he had nothing with him. He had not even seen the will which had been left to him. What had Jing Yiran been thinking? Why did he leave the will to him? They were not rted.
If he was unable to hand over the will, Jing Yichen would assume that he was concealing the truth. If any misunderstanding happened, Jing Yichen might break his neck and his brothers neck along with.
Then there would be no one left in the Hu Family!
This goddamned Jing Yiran, why was he trying to get him killed?
Gangster of the Locals had done so much for him, but he showed no gratitude and even tried to get them killed.
It was so difficult to be a gangster these days. They not only needed to fight withpetitors, avoid capture from the police but even clean the mess left behind by annoying nobilities!
Head Hu lost so much weight within one day because of this uing event.
At around eleven at night, the Gangster of the Locals eventually saw the Elder Master of the Jing Family, the god of killers C Jing Yichen.
Head Hu had chosen his best men to give him a weing greeting.
He did not dare to summon all of his men, in case Jing Yichen thought that he was trying to start a fight against him.
This way, all of his best men were here, and if any emergency happened, he would have some strength to fight back. Also, Jing Yichen would show some fear when he saw these skillful men, wouldnt he?
As the sound of footsteps, the tall, handsome and lethal Jing Yichen appeared in front of everyone.
Everyone got slightly startled at the sight of him.
He looked way too young, and handsome like a prince from a fairytale. If not for the cold eyes and the lethal air around him, people would have not thought of him to be capable of killing.
Everyone, including Hu Yi, had seen Jing Yichens photos in newspapers and TV, but it was the first time for them to see Jing Yichen in real life.
Jing Yichen behaved like a king.
He did not have many men with him, only three of them trailed behind him.
Hu Yi recognized one of them. His name was Tiger, tall and strong, the most loyal and capable man of Jing Yichen. He didnt recognise the other two, though.
One of them looked skinny, quiet and had a pair of intelligent eyes. He did not look like a man who knew how to fight. Hu Yi wondered why Jing Yichen had brought him along.
But the third man made Hu Yi shiver.
It was April and the temperature of A City at night was seven to eight degrees. Normally, people were dressed in thin sweaters and coats. But this muscr man standing next to Jing Yichen was wearing a short sleeved shirt, showing the well formed muscles. Judging from his appearance, he couldnt be ignored.
This man was Knife Lee, who had just be Jing Yichens man.
Knife Lee used to be a gangster and knew pretty well what they would normally do. He was good at martial arts and guns, so Jing Yichen had brought him along tonight.
Mu Qing was the other man next to Jing Yichen, whom Hu Yi didnt know about.
There were only four of them here, yet Hu Yi was feeling a lot of pressure. He knew that the four of them were the ones visible. Some more men must be hidden in the darkness. Maybe some of his men were Jing Yichens men too. Any trick he pulled, would probably lead to bloodshed.
If the gangster suffered and were injured, no one would care about them. Normal people and police, both would think that Jing Yichen had done a good job for the city.
Hu Yi knew how to be humble in front of people above him.
What was more, it was not humiliating to bend down in front of Jing Yichen.
Master Jing, we are from Gangster of the Locals, please let us know what you need!
Hu Yi knew that Jing Yichen was quite straightforward in his dealings.
Sure enough, Jing Yichen threw a cold look at the gangster and cut to the chase. The Will.
He spoke calmly and coldly.
A drop of sweat trickled down his forehead, but Hu Yi did not dare to wipe it off. Instead, he said in a weak voice, Master Jing, your man told me yesterday to get the will ready but I really do not have any will with me. If I did, I would not dare to hide it from you.
Jing Yichen stared at him and said calmly, Tiger!
Tiger made a call as he said, Bring the man.
A few secondster, two men in ck pulled a fat guy in a grey outfit into the room.
Hu Yi looked at him and cried out, Hu Er!
Chapter 517 - Legacy
Chapter 517: Legacy
He made arrangements for Hu Er to leave the city yesterday, but he had still been captured by Jing Yichen.
Was Jing Yichen doing this to force honesty out of him?
But he truly had no idea where the goddamned will was.
Without caring for anything else, Hu Yi walked up to Jing Yichen, sat down on his knees and pleaded for mercy. Master Jing, please Master Jing. I truly have no idea of what is that will or where is it. I did not have a very close rtion with the Second Master. I dont know why he left everything to me. Please have mercy! Please do not hurt my useless brother, okay?
Jing Yichen looked at him without saying a word. He seemed to have turned colder and more lethal.
Hu Yi swallowed hard and said, Master Jing, I really did not get any benefits from Second Master. Every time I did something for him, he transferred the money to me directly. Those old antiques were sold through many middle men and I almost made no profits on them. Did you make a mistake about him leaving the will to me?
He looked up and saw Jing Yichens cold expression. Startled, he changed the way he put forward the question. What about giving me a hint?
Jing Yichen remained silent, but Tiger spoke up. Head Hu, we did not make any mistake in getting the information. The will was truly left to you. It was done in the past half year. I can make Hu Er help you with the information if you cant think of anything.
Having said the words, Tiger nodded at the two men in ck who held Hu Er in their arms.
The men broke his arms, respectively with a loud creaking sound.
Hu Ers screams echoed across the vast room, making everyones hair stand up.
Hu Yi felt very concerned for his brother and kept begging for mercy with a pale face.
Hu Er had not gone through any misery being under the protection of his brother. So when his arms were broken, it gave him so much pain that he had tears trickle down his cheeks.
Under immense pain, Hu Er suddenly bellowed loudly as something hit his brain. Ahhhh! I remember now, Brother, I know where the will is.
Hu Yis chubby body shivered as he asked in a hurry, Where is it?!
Jing Yichen and his men turned to look at Hu Er.
I sold two houses for him before the New Year, but I lied to him that only one of them was sold, and I kept the certificate of properties of the other one to myself. In those papers, I saw your name on one of them. Could it have something to do with this?
Head Hu was furious. This greedy bastard! He almost got everyone killed today. How dare he hide Jing Yirans properties? Anything else was better than this.
He had so much money. Why would he need another house?!
Head Hu immediately ordered his men to fetch the certificates and information of the house. Sure enough, a piece of paper was hidden between them and there were tworge words printed there C The Will!
Head Hu was certain that his brother had been used by Jing Yiran, and it served him right. His greed would have killed them all today.
Without daring to take even one more look at it, he handed the papers to Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen did not ept it, but Tiger did. He observed the paper carefully and gave it to Mu Qing.
Mu Qing looked at it and then gave it back to Tiger as he said with a smile, Something is on the surface of the paper. One touch is okay, but holding the paper for long may kill you slowly.
Head Hu got startled by what Mu Qing said. He kept rubbing his hands, fearing that he had been poisoned.
Jing Yichen got a bit startled by how smoothly the matter got over. But since he already got what he needed, he did not stay on any longer. He left with his men, leaving Hu Er getting severely scolded by Head Hu.
It was Sunday the following day and the bank was closed. But when Jing Yichen asked for the opening of the locker, the President of Asian Region of the Bank received him personally and asked his staff to do the needful.
The headquarters of the bank was located in Switzend. It was an internationallymercial bank with high confidential features and reliability. They were very strict with their procedures.
But the President did not go through the process of inspection, and left it to his staff toplete the process. He sat and drank tea with Jing Yichen so as to express his friendliness.
Family Jing was a huge potential client and if such a huge client could join their bank, then their annual goal would be aplished ahead of time.
Soon the things inside the locker were taken out. Head Hu got so shocked that he almost passed out when he saw documents worth hundreds of billions in his hands.
He was a rich man, butpared to Family Jing, his properties were nothing.
No wonder Jing Yichen had used so much effort to get these things back. The shares and the properties inside the locker were worth a great deal of money.
Head Hu tried very hard not to think about keeping these things with him.
He was the appointed heir of Jing Yiran, and the legal heir of these properties.
But he was rational enough to give those documents to Tiger, one after another.
When the shares were in his hand, Jing Yichen let out a slight sigh of relief.
He had regained his shares and also some extra stuff, like the 20% shares of Jis Enterprise, properties andnd worth hundreds of millions as well as savings of hundreds of millions of yuan alongwith a list of Jing Yirans men.
Jing Yiran must have been so confident about not dying that he put all of his properties in the bank locker for future use.
His will had been a tool to confuse Jing Yichen, just in case.
Although Jing Yiran was still alive in reality, he was already deceased in the eyes of thew. Lu had made a death certificate for him and he would not be able to get back any of these properties.
Most of Jing Yirans properties had been gained from Mo Lan, and he had sold everything from the Jing Family and turned them into untraceable properties and money.
Now, Jing Yichen finally had extra money to get back the legacies of Family Jing.
Jing Yichen returned the 20% shares of Jis Enterprise to Ji Bo.
Jis Enterprise had recently been in a terrible state with stock prices falling tremendously. So the shares were not as valuable as before.
But those were the shares that could control Family Ji, far more than what money could buy. When Jing Yichen gave the shares back to Ji Bo, he was extremely shocked.
Chapter 518 - A Steady Life
Chapter 518: A Steady Life
Jing Yichen did not care much about Jis Enterprises shares, and he did not have much use for them. He did notck money, nor did he need to control Family Ji anymore because Ji Bo had sought refuge with him, already. Running Jingsheng Enterprise kept Jing Yichen extremely busy and he had no time to care about Ji Enterprise.
What was more, since Ji Bo gave 20% of Jingsheng Enterprises shares back to him without any condition, he was not reluctant to give his shares back to him, either.
Family Ji had been going through a terrible time in the past half year. It would take a long time for thepany to be as top notch as before. So, Family Ji had lost the ability to fight against Jingsheng Enterprise, leaving them as the only big enterprise in A City.
The shares were regained, but the deration had disappeared with Yang Muyan.
Jing Yichen thought that Jing Yiran must have given the deration to Yang Muyan on purpose because with both shares and deration in his hands, the risk would have been higher. If Yang Muyan had the deration, then it would be very unlikely that the Jing Family would gain back the deration.
But the deration did not matter that much to Jing Yichen. As long as the shares were returned, everything was settled.
His life gradually turned steady as before. He went to work at 9 in the morning and dealt with the affairs of thepany. Then he returned home at 6 in the evening. When he was not tied up with too much work, he would return home at lunchtime and deal with the business from home, making more time to keep his wife and sonpany.
Apart from Sister Lan and Sister Fang who worked as the servants, a nanny was specially hired to take care of the baby. The nanny was chosen by Huang Lihan and Jing Zhongxiu. She was quiet, introverted, and patient. Most importantly, she adored the boy very much. She had been taking great care of Jing Rui.
Zhao Zhao did not visit them so often anymore. She was assured that both Shangguan Ning and Jing Rui were fine and spent most of her time educating her unruly daughter.
Jing Yichen had not gone to office on the weekend, and was dressed in a white casual outfit, making him look as handsome as ever.
He held Jing Rui in his arms and had given a break to the nanny.
Shangguan Ning was sorting out Jing Ruis clothes when she saw Jing Yichen ying with Jing Rui in his arms and talking with him seriously. She could not help but smile.
Ning, dont you finish the first-month resting period in two days? Sister Lan could take care of this stuff. You should get back to the bed.
Jing Yichen had Jing Rui in his arms and came to Shangguan Ning as he said so gently.
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. I am not that delicate. Moving around is good for health. I cant keep lying down, it is bad for my body.
Jing Yichen did not insist. Shangguan Ning was not a stubborn person and it was truly good for her to get off the bed and walk around. As long as she was not overly exhausted, it was fine.
Shangguan Ning had gained some weight during these days, and even her chin turned a bit chubby. But it made her look prettier. She used to be too skinny earlier.
Her skin was white and slightly flushed. Also, because of the milk, her breasts had turned plumper than before. She had to feed the baby every now and then, and she wore no bra at home, for convenience. As the plump breasts dangled under the top, Jing Yichen felt excited at the sight in front of him.
Jing Yichen put his son on the bed, and swept his wife into his arms.
Shangguan Ning was not sure about what he intended to do. Startled, she noticed Jing Yichen staring at her with love in his eyes. She showed a bright smile and nted a kiss on his cheek.
Jing Yichens arms tightened around her when he saw Shangguan Nings red lips, and said in a low voice, When can we do that again?
Shangguan Ning knew what he was asking about. She flushed and red back at him. She said sinisterly, Half a yearter.
Jing Yichen knew that she was teasing him. He put on a pretentiously confused expression and said, Oh, why did Mu Qing tell me that one month would suffice for recovery?
Shangguan Ning pinched Jing Yichens waist bashfully as she said, Why did you talk with Mu Qing about it, even if he is a doctor. Also, one month wont be enough. At least two to three months. Stop teasing me!
Jing Yichenughed when he saw her turning embarrassed. He rubbed his nose against her beautiful nose and said, Silly girl, why will I ask Mu Qing about it? I was teasing you. How can you get fooled so easily?! You havent progressed much even after bing a mother. Why are you feeling so shy? I havent touched you for two months, dont you want me?
His voice turned seductive.
Shangguan Ning wentpletely red in the face. He was bing more and more shameless.
Without saying a word, she leaned forward and bit hard upon Jing Yichens shoulders andughed proudly when she heard him letting out a painful sigh. In order to stop Jing Yichen from taking revenge on her, she ran to Jing Rui and took the finger-sucking baby into her arms.
You cant do anything to me. I have a secret weapon!
Jing Rui must have been enjoying sucking his finger when he was suddenly picked up by his mother. He smiled at this woman he knew so well and showed his rosy gums.
Shangguan Ningughed too. See, my son is on my side. He will bully you for me.
Jing Yichen shook his head, walked forward and picked up both his son and wife, making Shangguan Ning let out a cry of surprise.
Sure, you guys can bully me as much as you want. This is my life now.
Jing Yichen put Shangguan Ning back on bed, took Jing Rui from her arms, ced him on the bed and turned helpless when he saw Shangguan Ning staring at him with a warning look.
Am I that narrow-minded? Do I need to bite back when a puppy bites me?
Shangguan Ning was just feeling relieved when she heard Jing Yichen continuing calmly. You think too little of your husband, I need to take two bites!
Saying so, he threw himself at Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning kept dodging in the beginning but gave up soon. Instead, she threw herself at Jing Yichen, making him almost lose his control.
Jing Yichen knew that it was not time yet. He truly should not touch Shangguan Ning after she just gave birth to a child.
He bit Shangguan Nings red lips as he said in a low voice, We will have no more children after this boy. I need you to pay back all that you owe me.
Shangguan Ningughed. No, I will give birth to more babies so that you can not do anything bad to me.
Oh, you want to have more babies with me, then I will have to make this promise to you. Have as many babies as you want, I can afford all of them!
Shangguan Ning was dumbfounded. She realised that she had fallen into the trapid by Jing Yichen!
Chapter 519 - Stirred (Part One)
Chapter 519: Stirred (Part One)
Soon, Jing Yiran learnt from Lu that the shares and therge numbers of properties which he had left behind, had already been taken away by Jing Yichen.
He felt that his heart was bleeding.
He had spent so much effort in collecting these properties and tried so hard to gain the shares of both Jis Enterprise and Jingsheng Enterprise, but Jing Yichen had taken them all for free.
He was extremely dissatisfied.
He had gained nothing in the end and even almost lost his life.
And now he could not even live with his real identity and was broke! He spent days in this expensive private hospital, and it was Lu who paid his bills.
He found himself incapable and distressed.
Lu had no other way of making money apart from killing. The money she earned was by risking her own life. Jing Yiran could not ept that money easily.
Also, Lu did not get work every single day, because she was one of the top 2 killers in the world and hiring her would need arge amount of money, which was not something most people could afford. Those who were able to afford her would need her to go on extremely dangerous missions.
Jing Yiran did not think of himself as a nice man, but he had no intention of letting Lu continue to remain as a killer.
He wanted to make money of his own to support Lu.
He wanted to get everything back from Jing Yichen.
It was a dark night and danger lurked in the air, making people feel anxious. Something caused Jing Yiran to wake up from his sleep.
He saw Lu standing topless, wrapping herself with bandages.
It was the second time for him to see her topless, but he did not feel any desire, instead agony spread through his heart.
He stood up and came to Lu. Taking the bandage from her, he said softly, Let me.
Lu got slightly startled, but then rxed and allowed Jing Yiran to wrap her up.
She was wounded on her ribs, and had taken off her clothes to bandage it. She had not expected that Jing Yiran would wake up during this time.
Lu was used to both men and womens naked bodies and didnt think that her being topless was anything embarrassing. But when Jing Yiran was helping her dress the wound, he identally touched her skin and a couple of times, even her supple breasts.
A strange feeling swept inside innocent Lus heart.
She took a few deep breaths so as not to break Jing Yirans wrist.
Jing Yiran proficiently dressed the wound. Then he frowned and got a nket to wrap her up. Do you enjoy exposing yourself so much? Do you know that there is a man in this room? Dont go stripping in front of men all the time. You are a girl and you should be embarrassed about being naked in front of me. Why arent you even blushing?
I was trained for six years in the camp and there was no difference between a man and a woman in that ce. We often fought with each other with no clothes on and the one who blushed, died first. I was one of the ten survivors amongst thousands of the killers and I have long forgotten what difference gender makes.
Lu sounded calm and looked serene, as if she were talking about someone else.
Jing Yiran got slightly startled. Soon he felt a touch of indescribable pain in his entire being.
He took Lu into his arms gently and smelled the candies on her body as he said with a low voice, Where have you been? I told you not to take any more orders.
I didnt take any order.
As Lu was in Jing Yirans arms, she felt a bitfortable. Subconsciously, she leaned against his strong chest.
She was wondering why she did not reject this hug.
Almost every killer hated to be touched by anyone, and none of them would be interested in indulging in such intimate behavior, because that could possibly lead to their death.
Lu, who had been trained for so many years and learnt so many lessons during the past years, didnt like to stay close to anyone. Not every killer used guns, some killers were good at using drugs, and intimacy might cause death if one wasnt careful.
Lu was good with guns, but she was quite skilled at drugging, as well. Sometimes guns were not allowed in some of her missions and that was when she chose to use drugs.
In the previous years, anyone who came close to her, would have caused her to kill that person. That was the conditional reflex after staying for six years in the killers training camp.
During the past two years, she spent a lot of time at the Jing Family, and had been living an ordinary life with no outside missions. That was how she gradually changed the habit.
But deep in her heart, she still had no desire of being touched. Despite that, now when she was touched, she felt warm andforted and wouldnt end up killing Jing Yiran.
She knew that Jing Yiran was not a good man and that she had been used by him, once. But somehow, she could not help but feel less defensive against him.
When Jing Yiran felt Lu leaning into him of her own ord, he could not help but get a stirring feeling inside his heart.
Maybe only this lethal yet innocent girl was willing to stay close to him without a specific reason.
Then how did you get hurt if you were not on a mission?
Lus wound was deep. Anyone who could hurt her would definitely have to be very skilled too. What other reasons could there be apart from a mission she took over?
My old enemy was here. He had hired too many killers today and I couldnt dodge them all.
Jing Yiran frowned. Your enemy?
Lu nodded. Yes.
Why didnt your enemye to cause you trouble before? Is it because you are in the USA? Jing Yiran did not have a good feeling about it.
He sounded serious.
They did not dare to cause me trouble before, because Jing Zhongxiu was backing me. I told you that I owe him and that is because of his protection.
More than his protection, actually. If a killer wants to leave the training camp, it wouldnt be easy at all. I was free, because Jing Zhongxiu paid thepensation fees for me and made a promise on behalf of the Jing Family that I would not cause trouble for the camp. As for my enemies, hepensated them to reach apromise with them that as long as I am part of the Jing Family, they would note to my door. The enemies could do anything to me if I am no longer at A City or leave the Jing Family.
What?! Jing Yiran got so shocked that he could not believe his ears.
How could that be possible? Why didnt he know anything about it before?
He had never expected that when Lu left the Jing Family, the consequences would be so severe.
Was it for his sake, that Lu had given up her life as well?
Would she be hunted by her enemies till the end of her time?
He had made Lu an ouw and they would always be on the run!
Chapter 520 - Stirred (Part Two)
Chapter 520: Stirred (Part Two)
Jing Yiran did not be calm until muchter.
He could not help but hold Lu tightly, but then immediately rxed his grip fearing that he would have caused her pain.
How can Jing Zhongxiu be so capable as to keep you safe?
Jing Yiran sounded bitter. It was not until today did he realize that without the Jing Family, he and Lu might not be able to survive.
Lu did not have any expression on her face. She still sounded calm.
I know far better than you how capable Jing Zhongxiu is. You have Jing as the family name, yet you dont have any idea how powerful Family Jing could be. The reason why he was willing to pay to help me, was not because I could be of any use to him, but because he and my uncle used to be friends. Before my uncle died, he begged him to take care of me and he agreed.
Your uncle?
Jing Yiran was surprised. This was the first time for him to hear Lu talking about her family. She had kept her family faraway from any conversation uptil now.
Yes, I had an uncle. After I killed my parents, he supported me for a year. He did not want me to join the camp, so I had a fight with him.
When she talked about killing her parents, she spoke about it in such a calm way as if it hadnt been a big deal. But Jing Yiran was shocked and his body stiffened.
Lu threw a calm look at him. Startled?
Jing Yirans heart softened as he saw her eyes. He kissed Lus smooth forehead and said, Why did you kill your parents? Rumor says that you killed them when you were fourteen? Is it true?
Lu was not expecting Jing Yirans sudden kiss.
His lips were warm and moist filling her with some strange feelings.
But soon she forgot those feelings.
Because what Jing Yiran asked reminded her of the miserable memory.
Before she was fourteen years old, she had been living a sunny and happy life. She had been an innocent girl with a set of parents who loved her deeply. She was totally carefree.
Sometimes she would experience extreme pain in her bones and muscles.Also her strength was off the charts. But nothing else was weird. She went to school like other children and liked new clothes and shoes.
But when she reached 14 years of age, she felt the pain in her bones increase more and more. What was strange was that her parents did not panic or take her to the hospital. Instead, they tried to cure her at home by injecting a blue fluid into her body.
The fluid worked at the beginning, but the little girl could not stand theplicationster.
She not only started having hallucinations, but also had severe cramps in her body. The pain tortured her day by day and her strength increased at the same time, so that neither of her parents could control her.
Gradually, she just could not tell the reality from illusion.
But one day, she was lucid suddenly. She realised that she was lying on a freezing cold table where she saw her blood taken away by her father who was talking with her mother in a low voice.
Lus body cant stand the virus anymore. I told you that you have injected too much into her. You were too anxious to keep our daughter alive.
Thats not my fault! You injected the virus when she was just born and she almost died because of it. Also, you injected the virus way too early and theplications arrived early because of it. You are the anxious one!
Lets stop ming each other. The virus has be adjusted inside Lus body and it can surely increase the physical quality of human beings. We will reach our goal, soon.
True. This is the most fierce virus in our institute. Our daughter can hold it in for so long, how unexpected. Now she is stronger and double skilled at hearing and seeing than normal people. I really want to try it out on myself.
No, we must hang on a bit more. The virus is not yet mature! I need to take some more blood for further analysis. One more month, then our product will be in formal production and entire mankind will be grateful to us. We will be the most famous scientists in the entire world!
Haha, our daughter was not brought up in vain. We have spent so many efforts on her. She would pay us back even when she is dead. I am not sure if she can make it after one month.
If the virus continues like this, then she would not pull through. Lets stop the injection for these two days. We should not be in a hurry right now, we have had her for 14 years, anyway. Wait until the resultes out.
...
She heard everything her parents said.
Just as they had said, she was better at hearing and seeing than normal people and she even had a better memory than ordinary beings. She already had the ability of not forgetting anything after one nce.
So even if they spoke in low voices, she could hear everything clearly. And she remembered every single word they said after so many years.
Her body had been reconstructed by a virus, and her genes had gone through tremendous change. Apart from the lifespan, her physical functions had broken through the limitation of mankind, and she had been turned into a monster with human figure because of her extraordinary abilities in eyes, ears, nose, strength, and brain.
She finally understood why she always fainted for no reason at home. It had been they who used to knock her out so as to inject the virus.
So her parents had treated her as a guinea pig, to breed a virus?
She had found the reason why she had been in pain throughout her body since she was born.
But why?
Why were they treating her in this way?
She was their daughter. Why was she being used to breed the virus? Why did they never care about her pain or her death?
She should have been proud of her parents for being scientists, but now, she hated them both.
Her parents had been injecting themselves with some amount of virus too, and had improved physically as well. Butpared to her, they were nothing.
She had fallen into the dark hell from the heaven of happiness in an instant.
But she must not die, or at least, she must not die so easily. She wanted her cruel parents to die first.
The virus had brought her unbearable pain as well as super powers. She could kill anyone with even little strength.
Before her blood could be extracted by them, she chopped their heads off.
Chapter 521 - Not Dead
Chapter 521: Not Dead
Her original intention had not been to cut her parents heads off. She had hated them for treating her like an object, but she meant to kill them only to survive.
Unfortunately, her body had been transformed by the virus, and without using force for half a year, she had no idea how powerful she could be.
She cut their throats with a knife, but her strength was out of control. With just a little force, the heads were removed.
As the blood sshed over her face and her body, she got so frightened that she passed out.
When she woke up again, she found herself at her uncles house.
There was another man present there whom she did not recognise. It was not untilter did she get to know that the man was her uncles good friend, Jing Zhongxiu. It was Jing Zhongxiu who covered up her crime of killing her parents so that she avoided being taken away by the police.
Her uncle was also a researcher. Like her parents, he was also devoted to studying the virus that could transform mankinds genes.
But unlike her parents, he used his own body as an experimental tool rather than his nieces.
He tried his best to weaken the virus inside her body, so that her deteriorating physical condition could recover gradually. But a yearter, her uncle died of the viruss torment in his body.
Before he died, he left her well-being to the only man whom he trusted, Jing Zhongxiu.
At that time, she had already joined the killers camp, after arguing about it with her uncle. So he asked Jing Zhongxiu to take good care of her on the sly.
That she was able to survive in the camp and became the second best killer in the world was because, first of all, she was fit and had outstanding strength and intelligence, exceeding the rest of members at such a young age, and secondly, it was because Jing Zhongxiu was keeping her safe secretly.
Jing Zhongxiu kept her safe for a dozen years, simply because her uncle had asked him to do so on his deathbed.
He had done whatever he could, as a kind and sincere man.
She owed Family Jing big fornding Shangguan Ning and her child in danger.
She was not angry for having been used by Jing Yiran. What she was mad about was that he used her to hurt Shangguan Ning.
She had owed Jing Zhongxiu too much for her to repay ever, so she kept Shangguan Ning safe all the time. But she not only ended up failing to protect her but caused her harm as well.
Seeing Lus distant look, Jing Yiran found her like a bewildered child. He could not help but pat her back, treating her as the other Lu who was innocent and pure whilst saying softly, Alright, it is fine. I am not asking any more.
Jing Yiran had never pampered anyone in this way, and that made him curious. It seemed as if the stinging pain on his forehead did not feel that severe anymore.
Lu resurfaced from her past, and spoke in an unemotional voice, It is fine. I have never regretted killing them. They deserved to die!
Jing Yiran stared at this lethal and cruel woman in front of him.
He knew Lu well. He knew that she did have emotions, except that she knew how to hide them deep inside her heart. If her parents had not done something outrageous, she would not have killed them. She was cold and distant, yet she did not kill people without reason. Inside her heart, she was a pure girl.
They were maniacs. They did not deserve to be parents. That was why I killed them. I was very young back then, and wasnt psychologically mature. So I had nightmares every single day after their deaths. A monthter, I started to show the symptoms of split personality with one of me stuck forever at 14years without any memory of what they had done whilst the other me was growing into an adult who bore all the pain and sin and started the career as a killer.
Lu had never told anyone about her past. Maybe it was because she was injured today and felt weak, or maybe it was because Jing Yiran showed warmth towards her like no one had done before, so that she opened her heart and recounted everything to him.
Then she said finally, I owe Jing Zhongxiu big, and I needed to do something to repay him. Though he may not need anything from me, but I am not like my crazy, ungrateful parents. I know how to be thankful!
Jing Yiran was shocked by Lus incredible past. He was not able to figure how the young Lu went through all of this.
If it had been him, he would have killed his parents too.
Jing Yiran also knew what it meant for Lu to have left the Jing Family now.
Jing Yiran got a bit baffled. He took this girl who was scary and miserable into his arms, as the pain spread through his entire body.
If he had known that Lu would be thrown out of the Jing Family and be the target of all her old enemies, he would not have used her.
Injured, Lu did not take too long before falling asleep.
Jing Yiran, however, stayed awake throughout the night.
Early in the morning, Lu woke up and found herself in Jing Yirans arms with nothing other than the bed sheet.
She felt a bit ufortable but soon she becameposed. She saw Jing Yiran staring at her with a strange look. What is it?
For the very first time in his life, Jing Yiran felt sympathy instead of desire towards a topless woman.
Lu. Jing Yiran sounded hoarse. He looked a bit tired with dark circles beneath his eyes. But he sounded determined. No more killing from today on. Lets go back to Family Jing. You can leave me, and go and lead a simple, steady life.
Lu got a bit startled. She sat up with the sheet over her body and asked curiously, What is it going on? Why must I return to Family Jing? I am doing fine. Also, Jing Yichen would not allow me to return, anyway.
Without moving an inch, Jing Yiran said with a soft voice as he stared at Lus beautiful face. I dont want you to die. You must live well and be happy.
He wanted Lu to return to Jing Zhongxius protection. There, she would live longer. He was, after all, not worth Lus protection.
Startled, Lu found it difficult to utter any words.
There had been too many people in the world who wanted her to die, even her parents who did not care about her life. She had been afraid of death, but after being through so much, she showed no fear towards it.
But now, there was one person who did not want her to die and wished her a happy life.
She let out a sigh of relief inside her heart and said, I do not want you to die either.
Chapter 522 - Home Together!
Chapter 522: Home Together!
Jing Yiran was astonished. He took Lus supple hands in his own and mumbled. I am a bad guy, everyone thinks that I am a bad guy. Why do you treat me so nicely?
His voice was incoherent, but Lu could hear better than others. So she caught each word clearly.
I think that you are nice. Compared to me, you are less evil. In some way, we belong to the same category of people.
Having said the words, Lu got off the bed, found her clothes and went to change in the bathroom.
Lying in the bed, Jing Yirans heart stirred.
If he kept fighting against Jing Yichen, Lu would surely lose the Jing Familys protection and her enemies will keeping after her. In that way, she would not have a steady life at all.
But was he going to give up all the loath and hatred for her?
Even if Jing Yichen had not killed Zhang Rong, he had killed him, except that he was lucky enough not to die.
For one second, Jing Yiran truly had no idea what to choose. But he had realized that Lu was a very important person in his life and he could not leave her alone.
Two dayster, Lu got wounded again even before the old one was cured.
Her enemy hade after her again.
A dayter, the killers camp she used to be with, came after her. They wanted Lu to return to the camp and work for them. If she did not ept the offer, they would send out the best killers to take her life. If they failed to get what they wanted, they would not allow a top killer like Lu drifting about in the world, being a huge threat to them.
Four dayster, another group of enemies came after her. She was such a famous figure that the group wanted to hire her and make her fight for them.
Seven dayster, the research institute which Lus deceased parents belonged to, came for her as well. She was carrying the biggest discovery of their institute C the evolved genes of the virus. They wanted to bring her back to the institute for further research. She could not end up being in their hands. If the perfect genes could be extracted from her body, their institute would be the richest institute in the world and every member would be a billionaire!
During the past few days, Lu had not had a good sleep at all. Had it not been because of her unusually strong body condition, she would have copsed.
We cant stay in this hospital any more. We need a new ce, otherwise we would lose our lives. The situation is out of my hands.
Ignoring her new wound, Lu packed up her stuff and the medicine which she had bought from the hospital.
But Jing Yiran took hold of her from behind and whispered. Lu, no more running. I have made up my mind to take you back to Family Jing.
Lu got shocked. She turned to Jing Yiran and asked in astonishment, What did you say?!
Jing Yiran was not taking her back to Family Jing for revenge, but for protection!
That meant that he was willing to bend down to Jing Yichen.
That was impossible.
She knew that there was a deep grudge between Jing Yiran and Jing Yichen and they always fought whenever they met each other. She also knew that Jing Yiran would never bow down to Jing Yichen, even in his death!
Seeing blood dripping out of Lus wound, Jing Yiran had tears in his eyes and he blinked them away.
It hurts when you are injured, and is worse than being shot by Jing Yichen. I will take you back home, back to A City and to Family Jing. We are not staying in the USA any more!
Lu saw Jing Yiran crying for the first time. He was a man who had not even cried when his mother passed away.
I am so incapable that I cant keep you safe. But if Jing Zhongxiu can keep you safe, I would be willing to return and be a docile son who never wants anything. I will never fight for the properties with Jing Yichen. He can take everything. I only want you to live well!
Lu stretched out her hands to wipe off his tears as she listened quietly.
A gentle smile hovered over her face.
She had not smiled in a long time. Maybe the other Lu smiled every day, but for her, her real smile happened dozens of years ago!
Ever since the age of 14, she had stopped smiling. When the virus was affecting her body, it was turning her into a cold woman too. She had believed that most of her emotions had disappeared.
The rumor had it that Angel was a killing machine who knew how to carry out a mission perfectly but didnt know anything about the world or its emotions. That was true.
She used to be numb and did not feel a single change after killing, always incredibly calm!
She had long forgotten what it felt to be moved and how it felt to smile.
But now, she was somehow d.
It was a strange feeling!
She saw Jing Yiran wrapping the bandage around her and said softly, I dont think that we can return to Family Jing. Jing Zhongxiu would not ept me back easily. You know that I have got so many enemies and once he epts me, he will have to deal with these people and that would mean a huge expense and headache for him.
Jing Yiran tied a knot at the gauze and then cut off the remaining gauze as he frowned. If he could keep you safe before, then he would surely keep you safe in the future. Dont worry, I will talk to him.
Lu shook her head and said straightforwardly. You are nothing in his eyes. The Jing Family has thrown you out and there is no need for you to go to him. If Jing Yichen says it, he would do whatever he can to help him. You are not that valuable to him.
We just need to be more careful. Those people are able to find me right now, because I undertook a mission of killing someone. It must have been a trap to hook me. I was fooled and exposed my location. I wont take any missions in the following six months. We can go into hiding.
No! Jing Yiran looked at Lu with determination. I told you that I will take you home.
He was not a stupid man. He had noticed that those men had eyes on Lu and they would not leave her alone so easily. It was not something that could be aplished simply by not epting any more work.
What was more, he did not want Lu to live a life that always put her at risk.
Dont worry. I have a way to make Jing Zhongxiu ept you. I will go to Jing Yichen and talk to him. He needs a favor from me, because I know something that he doesnt.
Chapter 523 - A Mature Man
Chapter 523: A Mature Man
May in A City was pleasant, with breeze brushing against the face and fragrance of flowers greeting the nose. On a beach by the seaside, some pretty girls in dresses yed around in the azure sea.
Maybe because of the past experience of falling into the sea, Shangguan Ning was not inclined to get into the water.
Landscape Compound was situated close to sea, yet due to being on the outskirts, only few visitors could be seen near the seaside.
The environment there was very pleasant, with the sun shining and fresh air all around, so Shangguan Ning took Jing Rui for a walk along the seaside.
Jing Rui was one month old and was growing fast. He ate and slept and barely made any noise, which saved Shangguan Ning a great deal of trouble.
Most of the time, she took care of her son by herself whilst the nanny was just helping around. Today when she was out with her son, she had no nanny or any servants alongside, except for Lee Duo and Knife Lee as well as the babys father.
Dressed in a brown colored casual outfit, Jing Yichen was pushing the stroller next to Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning had Jing Rui in her arms, talking with her son who understood nothing but greeted her with a smile.
Now we are out for fun. Are you happy, Ruirui? See, mom is out of home, finally. You are happy to be out as well, right? Ruirui, grow up fast and then you cane out for fun all by yourself. You can dig the sand, pick the shells and catch the small crabs like other older boys!
Jing Rui had no idea what his mother was talking about. But that did not stop him from feeling the same happiness as his mother. So he smiled brightly.
Since he was still very young, Shangguan Ning had put on many clothes on him as well as a lovely hat. He was tightly wrapped and kept feeling ufortable. He kept stretching arms and legs.
Shangguan Ning walked forward and pampered him patiently.
Her attention was fully upon her son and did not realize that someone was staring at her at that time.
But even if Shangguan Ning did not, Jing Yichen did.
The man was tall and dressed in a brown sportswear. He was wearing a cap, a pair of sunsses, arge mask and was even more covered than Jing Rui. Apparently, he was not supposed to be seen.
Jing Yichens pupils contracted and he looked away from the man, focussing upon his wife and son.
No one could hurt his family as long as he was here.
Shangguan Ning did not dare stay out for too long, fearing that Jing Rui would feel cold. They went home after an hour.
But one hour outside home made her feel fresh. She had stayed home for more than one month and now was finally able to go out.
She sat by Jing Ruis bed and sang for him, making the home be lively and happy.
Leaning against the door, Jing Yichen felt extremely satisfied while watching his beautiful wife as well as the lively son.
He was going to remove all the barriers and potential danger so that his wife and son could go out for fun whenever they wanted.
At night, when Shangguan Ning was asleep, Jing Yichen kissed her softly on the lips and got dressed.
He walked out of their bedroom and entered the babys room.
After Shangguan Ning finished the first-months confinement period, Jing Rui was moved into his own room along with the nanny.
The nanny did not sleep deeply. The moment Jing Yichen came in, she woke up.
Jing Yichen waved at her, suggesting that she should continue to sleep. Then he came to his sons cot and smiled as he saw Jing Rui sleeping in a very cute way.
He held his sons chubby, white hand, and kissed it. Tucking him into the nket, he walked out of the bedroom.
After they entered the elevator, Tiger said with a low voice, Master, Second Master is back!
Jing Yichen nodded. Okay.
If he was right, the tall man under a cap by the seaside was none other than Jing Yiran.
He was bold, wasnt he? He even dared to show up in front of him again.
If he could kill Jing Yiran once, then he could kill him again.
Our men have been keeping eyes on him. He is sitting by the seaside, probably waiting for you.
Tiger hesitated before uttering thest few words.
He truly had no idea why Jing Yiran woulde to the man who hated him most.
Could he not have known that the Master would never spare his life?
Jing Yichen also wondered about Jing Yirans behavior.
It was not like him toe and deliver his own life. He was best at pulling tricks behind peoples back.
Go and check it out. Maybe he has some backup.
Jing Yichen sounded poised and confident.
Wind blew heavily at the seaside that night. On the cold beach, Jing Yiran was the only person seated there and nearly blended in with the dark night.
Jing Yichen approached him slowly, and Tiger followed him behind closely.
Ever since Jing Yichen was almost killed by the killer hired by the Yang Family, Tiger had been following Jing Yichen closely. No matter where he went, Tiger would always be by his side. If he was tied up with something else and failed to be present, Lee Duo would act as his recement.
Tiger was definitely not going to let Jing Yichen meet Jing Yiran alone. He was obviously very dangerous.
Jing Yiran stood up and turned to look back when he heard footsteps approaching.
As Jing Yichen approached him, he said calmly, I have been waiting for a long time.
It was said that after a near-death experience, ones personality could change tremendously. As Jing Yichen observed Jing Yirans look and the way he talked, he found that the saying did turn out to be true.
Jing Yiran looked scarily pale against the moonlight. Obviously, he had not recovered fully after taking the bullet.
But that was not the important thing. The key thing was that he was not reacting reckless and impudent any more.
In one month, Jing Yiran had turned steady.
Jing Yichen frowned. This was not what he expected to see.
Because it meant that his rival had turned stronger, and was bing mature.
But Jing Yichen did not care much about it. He was confident that he could deal with Jing Yiran even now.
The best thing you can do right now is to hide your real identity, find a ce where no one knows you and live an ordinary life. You are only courting death by returning here.
Jing Yichen had killed Jing Yiran once, and even if he failed to die, he had taken the revenge. He did not have that strong a desire of killing him right now.
Another reason was that he could feel that Jing Yiran was not as fierce as before.
Chapter 524 - The Deal (Part One)
Chapter 524: The Deal (Part One)
Jing Yiran did not react to Jing Yichens words as he normally did. He looked determined and that was the only expression on his handsome face.
I am here even if it means death. I did note back for myself. I am here for Lu.
Hearing what Jing Yiran said, Jing Yichen was surprised.
That was not what the earlier Jing Yiran would have said.
For Lu?
Since when did he be such good friends with Lu?
Could it be because Lu saved his life and took care of him for a month, that he was moved and wanted to repay her kindness with his life?
Jing Yichen might have believed the authenticity of such words if they came out of someone elses mouth. But he would never believe that a man like Jing Yiran would do something like this.
Who was Jing Yiran?
He was a famous womanizer of A City and had fooled around with numerous women. None of them had gripped his heart. For him, women were disposable.
Also, as far as he knew, Lu was not Jing Yirans type.
She was tiny, strong and violent. He preferred women who were charming, sunny and mature.
Jing Yiran had known that Jing Yichen would not believe what he said. He had been Jing Yichens rival for a long time and if Jing Yichen knew him well, he also had a good knowledge of his brother.
Even Jing Yiran could not believe that he had changed so much and he must be crazy to bow down to Jing Yichen.
He had been Jing Yichens worst enemy. A month ago, he had been killed once by Jing Yichen but he survived and ended up standing here.
Well, he hadnt technically survived because that bullet was still lingering in his head like a bomb.
He had never expected that he would forget such hatred.
Jing Yiran smiled self-mockingly.
So you dont believe it? I also find it incredible. But I can tell you that I am here for Lu. I would like you to tell Jing Zhongxiu to keep protecting Lu, so that those who are hunting her, or trying to take her away for experimentation or hiring, should all go away.
Jing Yichens men had been keeping their eyes on Lu and Jing Yiran on the sly. He knew how much trouble they were in.
But he had never expected that it would be the reason for Jing Yirans return!
Lu was capable enough to hide from those people, but she might suffer a great deal because of that. Jing Yiran, on the other hand, would make it even harder for her. But Lu had faced even harder situations than this and Jing Yichen knew what Lu was really capable of. So he found Jing Yirans decision even more curious.
Lu does not need protection. If you know about her being an experimental tool, you should know that she is strong enough to survive, even with you, who would drag her down.
Jing Yiran did not get furious at Jing Yichens words. He would have started a fight with Jing Yichen earlier after hearing such terrible words, but now, he stood motionless, looking calm.
It was because he was aware that he indeed had been dragging Lu down during the past one month.
Jing Yichen found it even more curious when he saw Jing Yiran staying silent.
But he did not show it. Instead, he sounded cold and said distantly, Why must Family Jing keep her safe? Are you nning to make use of her so as to harm my family in the future? You do have a brain but you have found the wrong target.
The Jing Family does not owe Lu anything. On the contrary, you can ask her how much she owes us. Apart from driving her enemies away, she needs arge amount of money for medical treatment. Her virus returns every sixth month and she needs a blood transfusion. If the Jing Family had not been a wealthy family, she would have used up all of our money. But no matter how nicely the Jing Family treated her, she still chose to be on your side. Why should we have her with us?
Virus returns? She needs blood transfusion?!
Jing Yiran got startled. He felt his heart ache again.
He had no idea!
Lu never mentioned it and had been keeping this away from him.
He had thought that she was used to the virus and was basically safe.
But it turned out that she was still roaming around with the threat of death inside her.
If that is the case, then I will definitely expect the Jing Family to take her in.
Jing Yiran had no idea when the virus inside Lu would return, but he felt that the date was approaching, because during the past year, he had seen Lu around. She had not been hospitalized during that time.
But he had no ability to take Lu for the treatment. He had no money and he could not keep her safe while the treatment was on.
The Jing Family was the only one who could help her.
Jing Yiran took a deep breath and said the words that were full of humility. As long as the Jing Family takes Lu in, I promise never to fight against the Jing Family, nor against you.
Jing Yichen threw a look at him and sounded disdainful. You have overestimated yourself. I can kill you now, and you will not be able to fight against me. Even if I dont, the bullet in your head will kill you eventually. So, you are not worth a penny!
Jing Yiran got very furious by the tone and hisst words. He wanted to beat Jing Yichen badly.
But he could do nothing other than allow the fury to simmer inside him.
He felt that it had not been only his fault that they were on bad terms during all these years. Jing Yichen was cruel and no one could stand his arrogance.
But Jing Yiran did not forget why he returned to A City. For Lus sake, he would bend down and forget his pathetic self-respect.
He pressed down his anger and tried to speak as calmly as possible. Okay, I am not worth anything, but I have something that may be useful for you!
Jing Yichen found it even more curious. He hadshed out at Jing Yiran and he should have gotten mad. But why was he not angry yet?
Was this man really that irritable, out of control Jing Yiran?
Jing Yichen suspected that the bullet had affected his head.
Suppressing his thoughts, Jing Yichen said coldly, I dont want to make any deal with you.
Jing Yiran clenched his teeth and said in a low voice, What if I know where Yang Muyan is?
Chapter 525 - The Deal (Part Two)
Chapter 525: The Deal (Part Two)
Yang Muyan?
Jing Yichen got slightly startled.
He had been seeking Yang Muyan for a month now and still failed to find anything.
However...
My men can find this woman. It may take some time, yet we are definitely going to find her. If that is your bargaining chip, you can leave now.
Jing Yiran knew that Jing Yichen would not have agreed to his proposal so easily.
He stayed silent for a minute before finally saying, If Yang Muyan is not enough as the bargaining chip. What about Tang Yuns background?
Finally, a sh of cold light went across Jing Yichens eyes and he looked affected.
Jing Yichen might care nothing about Jing Yiran, and a little bit about Yang Muyan, but he desperately wanted to know about Tang Yun and the forces behind her.
He knew nothing about them, and had fallen into their trap long ago. However, his rival disappeared, leaving no trace behind, ten years ago and now they had reappeared.
It was indeed an unusual strategy of the rival. Jing Yiran and Yang Muyan,pared to this person, were actually quite predictable and familiar.
But he had no clue of who had been behind Tang Yun all this while.
And even Tang Yun, whom he thought that he knew well, had been totally unpredictable. He only knew that despite her recklessness, she had revealed nothing of her secret background.
The rival had been hidden in darkness for ten years and Tang Yun was just one of the tools sent to his side. Now that the tool was gone, they had started to send even more men to pry information out of him.
However, they seemed to be only looking for information. For a very long time, they had done nothing more.
But Jing Yichen did not believe that they only needed information.
The rival was way too calm!
And he had no idea who he was fighting against.
The more unclear the information of the rival was, the bigger pressure Jing Yichen felt about it.
Besides, their previous n had been so perfect that even he was fooled.
He had gone through inhuman torment and even regarded Tang Yun, the real killer, as his savior!
Jing Yichen went cold whenever he thought of this matter.
What intelligence must that person possess so as toe up with such a n that had fooled himpletely.
Jing Yichen had always been a confident man and sometimes conceited, as well. He believed that he was capable and educated enough to guarantee that he could face all kinds of challenges, including the intentions of his rivals.
But when it came to Tang Yun, he had been trapped like never before.
The people who were involved in this incident years back, were all killed by Jing Yichen. But only now did he realize that those people were of no importance and the real culprit must be watching him all this time like a joke!
He had been investigating them and trying hard to find some clue, but no progress had been made. He had checked Tang Yun out thoroughly and her background. But these people were imprable. He had also destroyed the camp of the Tang Family in the USA, but no useful information had been discovered from there, as well. None of them had any idea of what happened eleven years ago!
The Tang Family must have been the culprit, but the real nner remained in the shadow.
He was fooled again.
The rival seemed to know him well and the way he worked. The rival also seemed to have a clear knowledge of what the Jing Family was capable of and was always able to dodge them.
Could Jing Yiran know who that person was?
You know who is behind Tang Yun?
Jing Yichen soon regained his usualposure. He had no difficulty in confronting the difficulty, otherwise he would have killed himself eleven years ago without being able to stand the torture. Now, eleven yearster, he had grown stronger.
Hearing what he said, Jing Yiran let out a sigh of relief and said, I know somethings, but not all. What I have found may not be as much as what you have found, but Tang Yun revealed something and I got someone to check it out. I can more or less be certain about who was her backer.
Seeing Jing Yirans expression, Jing Yichen knew that he was not lying. Also, if his information was from Tang Yun, then the information would truly be beyond what he had found.
If he was able to remove the strong rival hidden in the darkness, he could think about protecting Lu.
Tell your information to Tiger and when I confirm the information, I will make the Jing Family protect Lu again.
Having said the words, Jing Yichen strode away, leaving no more room for Jing Yiran to do any further negotiation.
Jing Yiran felt wronged when he saw his retreating arrogant figure.
He considered himself to be a conceited man, but now he had to bend down in front of Jing Yichen and that made him feel very ufortable!
He kept reminding himself that Lu had almost lost her life for his sake, and it was nothing if he bent down in front of Jing Yichen once.
Whatever the payment was, he must make sure that Lu could live a steady life.
She was a girl who had led a more miserable life than he did. He had never had the feeling of wanting to protect someone so badly as he did right now.
Jing Yiran felt his heart calm down when he thought of the wounds on Lus body and the things she had to do during the past month.
He started to tell Tiger about the confidential information he knew.
Tang Yuns backer is someone really well established. I dont have enough capability to find out everything. You can do that. Leave Yang Muyan to me, I will contact you after I find her. Also, I need some money!
Tiger nodded with an honest look. I will report it to the Master for approval. I cant make the decision.
Jing Yiran needed money to do the work for Jing Yichen. Jing Yichen was definitely going to give him the money except that it would not be arge amount.
He had already reached his purpose of today. The clue he offered would surely be of great help for Jing Yichen. He was not going to break his promise and Lu was certainly going to be safe.
Tiger left after he got the information, leaving Jing Yiran standing alone, facing the vast sea.
A long whileter, a supple body took hold of him from behind.
Chapter 526 - In Love!
Chapter 526: In Love!
She held him so tightly that Jing Yiran almost stopped breathing.
But he was no longer as distressed as a minute ago when he was with Jing Yichen. Instead, he smiled charmingly, Did you miss me so badly after not seeing me for just a couple of hours? It seems that I am still very attractive to both young and mature women.
What he meant was that he was attractive to both versions of Lu.
Lu did not object. Nor did she release the hands. She just kept him in her arms all the time.
A long whileter, Lu said with a soft voice, Thanks.
Jing Yiran turned around and took Lu in his arms.
Her small figure was a huge contrast against his tall and strong physique. He picked her up, making her feet dangle in the air and covered her in his arms,pletely.
With one hand over her waist and the other over her plump butt, Jing Yiran looked teasingly at her. A verbal gratitude is not enough. I want something practical, such as a French kiss or something.
Previously, Lu did not have much feeling towards a persons looks, because in her eyes, everyone looked the same. It did not matter if a man was beautiful or ugly, because everyone had one nose, two eyes and she did not care if a person had double eyelids or single, tall or low nose bridge. To be more exact, Lu couldnt tell the difference between different looks.
However, when she saw Jing Yirans face, she saw the beauty of a man.
His forehead was smooth, his eyshes were long and eyes narrow. His nose bridge was sharp and his lips were moist and well shaped.
He did not take after Jing Zhongxiu but Zhang Rong, and Zhang Rong had been an extremely beautiful woman. Many men had courted her when she was younger, yet she only had eyes for Jing Zhongxiu, who had a strong family background, appearance and ability.
Jing Yirans beauty was enchanting, yet no one would mistake him as a woman.
He had not been urate when he talked about being attractive to young and mature women. He was attractive to both men and women!
Lu looked at him for a while and then extended her hands to feel Jing Yirans exquisite eyshes.
She said softly, You are pretty!
Jing Yirans face sunk when he heard the words.
He was flirting! But Lu was not taken in.
She even said that he was pretty!
Was pretty a word used to describe men?!
Lu was indeed his worst enemy.
He had wanted to take advantage of her but he could not even kiss her when he saw the serious expression on her face.
Jing Yiran knew that Lu was slow when it came to a man-woman rtionship. Actually, she was slow in all kinds of rtionships where emotions were involved.
That may have something to do with the terrible experience she went through, or maybe that was because of the virus inside her body that made her slower to react in emotional rtionships.
No matter what the situation was, it didnt matter to Jing Yiran.
How many people could a person run into, who would follow him no matter what happened?
Most people had many concerns. Women, for example, always got worried that men would change their minds.
Of course, he was also a fickle man. He had irritated many, many women in A City and he had turned poor overnight.
Only a simple-minded woman like Lu would run away with him without knowing how he felt.
Jing Yiran suddenly felt his heart softening. He did not care whether he was called pretty any more. He lowered her back to the ground, patted her hair and squatted down in front of her.
Climb on, let me carry you.
Lu was startled. She was no longer capable of figuring out what Jing Yiran was up to, because none of what he was doing was within her knowledge of him.
Also, no one had ever carried her or even offered to.
She had been the one who carried people around, because she was strong. She never expected that she needed anyone to carry her.
She had been affected by the virus since birth, and was possibly one of the strongest people in the world. Even boxers who were many times stronger than her would not be a match against her.
The God of Killer, the number one killer in the world, was a Mexcian man. He topped the list, because not only was he capable, but because he was very interested in killing. He had killed ten times more people than Lu and barely made mistakes. Therefore, he was considered more dangerous than Lu.
She was used to being strong and did not know how to behave like a coy woman. She didnt know how to lean against a man.
When Jing Yiran did not find any weight falling upon him after a bit, he turned around and saw Lu staring at him with a confused look, looking lost and lovely. Jing Yiran was moved even more.
He stood up and hugged Lu. No one ever carried you before?
Lu had no idea what he meant. But she shook her head subconsciously.
Jing Yiranughed suddenly. Alright then, I have never carried anyone before, either. So, we are even.
Do you like me hugging you?
Ah?!
Lus eyes widened. What was this? Why was he asking such difficult questions?
Jing Yiran stretched out his long fingers and pinched Lus exquisite chin as he whispered in her ear. Answer me, do you?
Jing Yirans fingers felt much warmer than usual because of his constant fever, making Lus heart throb.
She wondered if she liked him hugging her?
Because she did not find it annoying.
She nodded and hesitatingly said, Very cozy.
A bright smile hovered over Jing Yirans lips.
He might be reckless and cruel and might never have taken any women seriously. Yet he did have an amazing appearance and was almost as handsome as his brother, except that they had different styles.
If you say so. Then lets... be in a rtionship, okay, baby?
Chapter 527 - Born Enemy
Chapter 527: Born Enemy
Even if Lu was emotionally slow, she knew what being in a rtionship meant.
She had never been with anyone before, yet she had a general idea about what would happen when a woman and a man were in a rtionship. She looked up at Jing Yirans face and asked with uncertainty, You want to sleep with me?
Jing Yiran suddenly felt that the bullet in his head had started aching more!
God damn it! It was the first time for him after so many years that he wanted to be in a pure rtionship with a woman where feelings matter more than the physical needs yet this damned girl misunderstood him.
Were you the person sent by the gods to punish me?!
She was his enemy who was born to bring him trouble at every second.
Jing Yiran pinched Lus white chin with hisrge hand and said through teeth clenched, Do you think that I am such a sexually deprived person?
Lu blinked her eyes innocently. Isnt that what a rtionship is about? Otherwise why would you want to have a rtionship with a woman?
Ha, you know that, dont you? Who told you that I have a rtionship with a woman only because I want to sleep with her? I may only want to hold her hands! Jing Yiran continued speaking with teeth tightly clenched.
He was suddenly reminded of the time when Lu, without feeling any sense of shame, had gripped his manhood and tried to turn him into an eunuch.
This girl was apparently more open than him!
Suddenly, Jing Yiran was not happy any longer. This girl did not care much about the difference between women and men. Could she also have the same feeling towards other men?
No, this was not going to work. She wont be allowed to do any such thing in the future.
Lu thought about what Jing Yiran did before and said seriously, As far as I remember, what you did with your old girlfriends was more than holding hands. You kissed them, touched their breasts, danced naked and you... oooh...
Before she finished her words, Jing Yiran gagged her mouth with his hands.
Jing Yiran was yed by her words.
Alright, he might have behaved indecently earlier, but could she not say it so openly?
God was way too unfair. He was passionate and serious, and iparably experienced in love making. Why was he forced to confront such a woman who had such radical ideas about rtionships, that his flirting did not work upon her.
Never mind! He was experienced, after all, and older than Lu.
She needed taming, and he firmly believed that with his amazing appearance and gentle way of courting, even a stone could be melted, let alone Lu!
One could not be forced into a love rtionship, and Lu had to understand what it meant before she could ept it.
She was slow, but that was not her fault. It was because of her lifes experience and unique physical conditions.
As a matter of fact, Jing Yiran was not sure if what he felt towards Lu was love as well.
He remembered that when he was interested in Shangguan Ning back then, he missed her a great deal and was constantly reminded of her smiling face and felt tempted to irritate her.
But it was not the same with Lu.
When he was with Lu, he felt veryfortable yet he had no sexual desire or temptation to irritate Lu. All he wanted to do was to keep her safe against the danger out there.
He had been with many women before, but none had moved his heart.
Maybe Shangguan Ning could be counted as one of them.
Could Lu, though?
Jing Yiran finally realized that he was also quite confused.
He kissed her soft hair gently, squatted down in front of her again and said, Come, let me carry you on my back.
Lu had be used to Jing Yirans kiss by now. She lived with her parents in the USA when she was young, and considered kissing as a way of expressing friendliness.
Although deep inside she felt that Jing Yirans kisses were somehow different, but she was not able to figure out what made them different.
All she knew was that she liked it when he kissed her, because that made her feel as if she had gone back to the carefree life.
But that did not mean that she needed Jing Yiran to carry her on his back.
This was something that annoyingly, fragile women needed.
Without moving an inch, she said calmly, No need, I can walk by myself.
Jing Yiran pampered her and said gently, Your wound is not fully cured yet. It will hurt less if I carry you on my back. Please, let me carry you, I want to. Trust me!
Lu wanted to turn him down, but Jing Yiran ced his hands on her butt, parted her legs and put them on each side of his waist. Then he stood up.
Lus body was stiff in the beginning, for she had no idea how to face this situation. She had never been carried by any man before and found it extremely weird.
But after a while, she rxed and leaned against his back.
His back was broad and strong, making Lu feel safe.
She had a special physical condition because of which her wound healed better and faster than ordinary beings. Even her scars looked lighter and her body could function well, so she did not care much about bleeding.
She found Jing Yiran making a big fuss about taking care of her wounds.
But she also felt happy, somehow.
Lu did not understand the situation well, but she found it extremely pleasing when someone cared about her.
She leaned against Jing Yirans shoulders and subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck. They forged ahead slowly in the silent, dark night.
As the sea wind brushed over the sea surface, the white waves came ashore and wiped the footprints which had been left behind on the clean beach.
The small figure leaned against the big one under the moonlight, with a long shadow following them.
It seemed that they were seeking their way back to home in darkness, slow and determined.
Jing Yichen stood next to the studys french window, watching the two blurry figures and frowned.
Could Jing Yiran have returned really for the sake of Lu?
Master, they have left.
Tiger walked into the study and reported to Jing Yichen.
Second Master carried Lu on his back and they seemed very close. I feel that they may... be together.
Tiger hesitated for a second, but still said what he felt.
Master would have his own judgement about their rtionship. What he needed to do was to share his opinion.
Unexpectedly, however, Jing Yichen felt a bit surprised as he said, You felt the same? I thought that I had a wrong hunch.
Chapter 528 - Almost a Beauty
Chapter 528: Almost a Beauty
Tiger was startled.
Master barely doubted his own instincts.
Tiger scratched his head and said in a good-natured tone, What about checking them out? They did not seem so close to each other before they went to the USA. But I feel that the Second Master is a bit different now.
Having heard Tigers words, Jing Yichen chuckled suddenly.
He died and came back. That is a life-altering situation. But he seems... to have changed a lot this time.
Jing Yiran had put down his own self-respect for Lu. It was incredible.
Jing Yichen believed what Jing Yiran said, that he dide back for Lus sake. He had already noticed that Lu was treating Jing Yiran a bit differently, but had not expected that Jing Yiran would react to her behavior.
It seemed that something major happened in the past one month.
That was good. Otherwise, he truly was hesitant about trusting Jing Yiran.
He needs money, doesnt he? Give him 500,000 yuan for the time being and give more when he gets closer to finding Yang Muyan. Send two men to track their movements. Let everyone else focus upon the person behind Tang Yun.
Jing Yichen continued speaking, Dont sell Jing Yirans old vi. Give it to Lu and him. Living at the hotel can cause problems.
Tiger thought inside his heart C didnt you want something to happen to the Second Master? Didnt you keep making sure that he was hurt, and harmed?
But he dared not say it out loud.
Jing Yichen left the study after he finished giving instructions. It was already 3 in the morning.
He tiptoed into the babys room and smiled when he saw his son sleeping snugly.
He lowered his head and kissed his sons serene face before walking out.
Jing Yichen went back to the bedroom, and changed into the navy PJs which Shangguan Ning had bought for him. On the bed, he extended his arm and took Shangguan Ning into his embrace.
Shangguan Ning opened her eyes and asked drowsily, Did you go out again? What happened? I wanted to hug you but you were missing.
Jing Yichen kissed her forehead with a smile. Nothing to worry. Just some good news! I am not going out anymore and am avable for your hug.
Shangguan Ning realised that he sounded happy. Putting her arms around his waist, she leaned her head against his chest and fell asleep.
The next morning, Shangguan Ning woke up and found Jing Yichen lying next to her. She let out a smile.
Seeing his well formed chest, she could not help but take a bite at Jing Yichens nipples.
Jing Yichen was woken up by her biting and let out a small hiss.
He spanked his wifes butt as a punishment and warned her in a sexy, hoarse voice. Stop being naughty!
Whom did you meetst night? You couldnt wait three months for me?
Jing Yichen let out augh and tweaked Shangguan Nings nose with his fingers. Nonsense! I did not touch any women before I met you. How could I have turned more hungry after I met you?
Hungry? Honestly, Master Jing, could you be a bit less indecent?
But I did meet a womanst night. She can be considered almost a beauty.
Almost a beauty? What was that?
Shangguan Ning was totally awake now and said, Spill it! Who was it?
Jing Yiran.
Shangguan Nings eyes widened. What? Isnt he dead? She was too surprised to respond to Jing Yiran being almost a beauty.
Jing Yichen shook his head slightly. I didnt know about it until a while ago. It seems that he was lucky to survive despite a bullet in his head.
Shangguan Ning was surprised when she realized what he meant. Then why is it a good thing?
He kneeled down in front of me, isnt that good? At least, now I have the absolute right to control his life and he will never dare to do anything bad again.
Shangguan Ning felt that the Sun had risen from the west.
What exactly happenedst night when she was sleeping?
Shangguan Ning might ept the news that Jing Yiran cheated death, but his bending down in front of Jing Yichen was something that she could not believe.
Honestly, Jing Yiran would not bow down to Jing Yichen even if it meant his death. Otherwise he would not have been beaten by Jing Yichen so many times.
If the brothers had been on peaceful terms with each other, then there would not have been any trouble during these years.
They were each others worst enemies and that was something that could not change overnight.
Even if Jing Yiran started a second life, he would stille to Jing Yichen to take revenge. But now his personality had also changed?
Shangguan Ning could not believe that. She frowned. Could that be his n? Is he lying to you?
He is not smart enough for that. Dont worry, I am more capable than him. I can tell if he is bowing down for real or not. I can put another bullet into him if he is up to mischief. He would not be able to dodge it twice.
He sounded so conceited that people who did not know him might find him self-obsessive.
But Shangguan Ning trusted himpletely and admired him to a great degree. She did notugh at him and nodded seriously. Okay. I am assured when you say that.
Jing Yichen ....
It seemed that his wife had turned a bit dumb after she gave birth to the baby. She even agreed with him when he had bragged so tantly. Honestly, she was indeed special.
He thought for a moment and then told Shangguan Ning about Jing Yiran and Lus rtionship.
Although he was not sure how deep their rtionship was, judging from how Jing Yiran behaved, he had apparently ced Lu at the topmost position in his heart.
Shangguan Ning needed to be aware of these matters. She had cared about Lu as her own sister and even though she ended up being kidnapped by Jing Yiran, she did not me Lu for it.
She always insisted that it was not Lus fault, but Jing Yirans.
When Shangguan Ning heard about Jing Yiran being together with Lu, she was again shocked!
They were together?!
How could that be possible?
She had never noticed Lu having any special feeling for Jing Yiran, nor the other way around, either!
She had been away from the world for just one month. What on earth happened out there?
Chapter 529 - Searching for Yang Muyan (Part One)
Chapter 529: Searching for Yang Muyan (Part One)
In June, it was getting a bit hot and people were dressed in light summer clothes.
It was a season full of temptations C shorts, mini-skirts, slings, and cleavage-exposing tops were everywhere.
The most famousmercial walking street was full of people and very lively.
It was a hot season for tourism in A City, with people all over the whole countrying to the beach, sunbathing as well as shopping.
The world was a small ce, and you might run into some old ssmates on this walking street. On the other hand, the world was also arge ce, and you might even fail to find your boyfriend who got lost. The most unfortunate part could be that your wallet and cell phone might be stolen by thieves.
Lu did not like these kinds of crowded ces. She did not feel safe, because she was not sure if she would be stabbed by someone. It was a perfect setting for it.
So she remained on her guard against any suspicious looking person.
But none of those people looked any less suspicious in her eyes.
There was a dumb-looking woman in her twenties at her 12 oclock, who was holding a bamboo stick with suger-coated hawthorns. The stick was thin and long, and at a proper angle and with the right strength, the stick could be inserted directly into the heart and kill someone.
At her 8 oclock, there was a man dressed in ck sportswear, with a cap covering his face. He was ying with a lighter in his hand. If he was working with someone who had a bucket of petrol ready, the lighter would soon turn into a bomb that could kill everyone within a range of ten meters.
After a short while, Lu found herself getting mentally destroyed.
This was not working. She was a killer who should hide in the darkness to kill people rather than stand exposed as an easy target!
It seemed as if he knew what she was feeling.
But the man next to her, who had attracted the stares of numerous women, wrapped his arm around her waist and whispered in her ear, Calm down. Pretend to be curious about your surroundings. Yang Muyan is a smart woman, if you stay rigid, she will run away!
Dont drag me along next time for such a matter. I am good at killing, not acting!
I brought you here just in case. Yang Muyan is a maniac and kills everyone she hates. What if she hates me and wants to kill me? You would save me, right?
Jing Yiran sounded rxed and was smiling, yet he was being cautious.
Previously, he and Yang Muyan had been on the same boat and their mutual goal was to remove Jing Yichen.
Yang Muyan had asked Ji Bo to exchange the shares with him so that he could get an opportunity of entering Jis Enterprise and take partial control of the Ji Family. She even used forceful methods to get him the position of the Vice-President of Jis Enterprise, and supported him in fighting against the Jing Family.
Later, he gave Yang Muyan the deration so she could keep it safe.
It was a coboration based on deep trust.
Yang Muyan and Jing Yiran had their own methods ofmunication.
That was why Jing Yiran had told Jing Yichen that he would be able to find Yang Muyan.
But Yang Muyan was not easily fooled. She was not only extremely smart but also very careful. She never attacked from the front and preferred operating from the shadows.
Jing Yiran had given a signal to Yang Muyan two weeks ago and it was now that she finally responded. They had agreed to meet on the walking street of Fuan.
It was usually a terrible choice to meet at such a ce full of people, but for Yang Muyan, this was the safest ce where she was least likely to be exposed.
She had been coborating with Jing Yiran for a long time, but she trusted no one except herself. Jing Yiran was, after all, Jing Yichens brother and had the blood of Family Jing inside him.
Even if Jing Yiran was worth trusting, Yang Muyan still believed that Jing Yichen would keep his eyes on Jing Yiran, wherever he was.
Dressed in a whitece dress, Yang Muyan stood at the window and looked out on the street, with a hot cup of coffee.
Her dress was tailor-made and stretched all the way to the butt, showing her long legs. She barely went out when she was young. Therefore, her skin was very white and her legs, tempting.
She wore exquisite makeup. Jing Yiran would surely be surprised when he saw her, because todays Yang Muyan only resembled 30% of the old one.
It was partially because of makeup but mostly, it was due to stic surgery.
Her eyes had turnedrger, nose bridge higher, chin more pointed and cheeks plumper. She even had two lovely dimples on the cheeks and sexy, pouty lips.
Yang Muyan looked even more beautiful than before. People who did not know her may mistake her as a kind hearted beauty.
Yang Muyan was a very confident woman and had been satisfied with her old look. Yet in order to live longer, she underwent stic surgery to alter her appearance. With the help of makeup, she was almost unrecognizable.
In order to leave no trace, she cruelly killed the stic surgery and removed all the documents about her from the doctorsputer.
She was now the general manager of a cosmetics store on the walking street of Fuan with the store on the first floor and the second floor serving as her office.
The mid-sized cosmetics store had been there for long, mostly consisting of some branded cosmetics and attracting old clients. Yang Muyan used to buy her cosmetics from this store and found it annoying to keep buying stuff from there, so she bought the store, once and for all.
However, in order to keep the secret, the old owner went missing too.
Killing was not a big deal for Yang Muyan. After all, her entire family had disappeared overnight. A few killings were nothing,pared to what the Jing Family had done.
But there could be traces left behind after the killings, causingplications afterwards. So, Yang Muyan often aimed at those people with smaller socialworks and weird personalities.
Chapter 530 - Searching for Yang Muyan (Part Two)
Chapter 530: Searching for Yang Muyan (Part Two)
For example, the owner of this cosmetics store was an unmarried woman in her 40s and had a very bad temper. She had been running this store for more than twenty years and did not establish any socialwork.
So the risk of killing such a person was very, very low.
Actually, even if the risk was high, Yang Muyan was not scared. She enjoyed the process of killing and loved ying a cat and mouse game with the police officers. She used them as learnings to make herself better in killing people in the future.
No one was aware that Yang Muyan had already killed someone at the age of 12.
She killed a servant who onceughed at her appearance behind her back. She used drugs to cause the servants death. Everyone had thought that the weak servant died out of exhaustion whilst beingpletely oblivious of the fact that Yang Muyan was the cause.
Yang Muyan was ted to have killed an adult without spilling any blood and gotten away with it, scot-free.
She also discovered her own amazing talent. From that time on, she would kill someone every now and then, sometimes for venting her anger and sometimes for practice.
The first person who discovered her truth was the Old Lady of the Yang Family, her grandma.
She was shocked, but she helped to conceal the secret.
She found out that Yang Muyan didnt respect life, and there had been hundreds of people who died because of Yang Muyan by the time she was 16 years old.
From that time on, the Old Lady of the Yang Family started allowing her granddaughter to participate in the strategic decisions of the family. For ordinary people, killing was a felony, one that was against thews and morality. But for the Old Lady who had been through blood and death, she found it to be an amazing talent.
What was more, she even started to instruct Yang Muyan about whom to kill and whom not to. There were many ways of killing people but the best method was to kill the target by someone elses hand.
Under the guidance of her grandmother, Yang Muyan progressed rapidly. What was more, she even hired masters of different fields to instruct her granddaughter.
Henceforth, Yang Muyan would meet outsiders, but did not kill people with her own hands.
She was going to make use of others to help her achieve her goals.
Zheng Jing was the most capable police officer in A City. Yang Muyan knew of him, but did not think of him as someone important. As capable as Zheng Jing might be, he was still far from possessing the same calibre as Jing Yichen. If Jing Yichen had carried out the investigation himself, Yang Muyan might have paid attention to it. But she had no desire to deal with the situation when Zheng Jing was assigned to solve the cases.
Also, Yang Muyan knew Zheng Jing well. She had already taken control of Zheng Lun and his parents and could kill Zheng Lun whenever she wanted, making sure that Zheng Jing would surely obey her.
She did not like it when a capable police officer kept staring at her all the time.
But Zheng Jing was not the top issue at the moment, it was Jing Yiran.
Yang Muyan was sporting a wavy hairstyle and wore a pair of white stilettos. She took a sip of the fragrant coffee and lowered her head to watch Jing Yiran who was walking around with a woman in his arms.
She knew Lu, and had dug into her background. She knew that Lu was a capable killer, and nothing more. In her opinion, Lu was not that special anyway.
Yang Muyan had checked all the people who were in a close rtionship with Family Jing, and was still investigating them.
It was a smart method to have a clear knowledge of all sides.
Family Jing was an enormous empire, and Family Yang failed to conquer them even when Family Yang had been at their peak. But she was alone now, and still thought that killing Jing Tianyuan, Jing Zhongxiu, Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran was not that difficult.
Yang Muyan had tried to find the best killers to end their lives, but her n didnt work.
Because no killer wanted to touch anyone from Family Jing.
The Old Lady of the Yang Family had hired a killer to finish Shangguan Ning because Shangguan Ning was not known as thedy of the Jing Family. That was why the killer had epted the order and took only 400,000 yuan.
But at this moment, even an extremely high price would not get any killer to touch Shangguan Ning.
It took Yang Muyan much time and energy to find out that Jing Zhongxiu was in a coboration with thergest killers camp in the world, and the dominators of the camp were in a good rtionship with Jing Zhongxiu. They even imed that anyone who went against Jing Zhongxiu was actually going against them!
That was indeed horrifying!
Which killer would dare to go to Jing Zhongxiu then? No one would dare to irritate Jing Tianyuan and Jing Yichen, either.
So Yang Muyan had to do it herself without killers help.
She was definitely going to kill every single person of Family Jing.
And Jing Yiran was the best sword for this!
He had never been on good terms with Jing Yichen and believed that Jing Yichen had caused his mothers death. He had dedicated his life to hating Jing Yichen and was the right tool.
Two months ago, Jing Yiran had taken Jing Yichens shares and deration and the deration was now in her safekeeping.
However, what confused Yang Muyan was that Jing Yiran should have died because of the bullet which Jing Yichen put into him, but he was alive.
Jing Yichen was not the merciful kind, so she wondered how Jing Yiran survived.
The first person who must have discovered about Jing Yiran being alive must be Jing Yichens men, who were everywhere in A City.
She wondered if Jing Yichens men were following him today for the meeting.
And wasnt Lu a part of Jing Yichens staff? Hadnt she been in charge of Shangguan Nings safety? What was she doing by Jing Yirans side?
Seeing the couple who leaned against each other on the noisy walking street, Yang Muyan could not help but show a cold smile. If Jing Yiran dared to bring any of Jing Yichens men, then none of them would leave from here, alive.
Chapter 531 - Second Jing Brother Almost Collapsed
Chapter 531: Second Jing Brother Almost Copsed
Jing Yiran was not aware of the fact that he had already entered Yang Muyans horizon. Nor did he know that Yang Muyan had changed her identity to be able to roam around freely.
He had thought that Yang Muyan had hidden herself to cook up a secret n, fearing that she would be killed by Jing Yichen.
That was what Jing Yichen thought as well, because he had got no results after searching for Yang Muyan for a long time.
Jing Yichen had actually considered that Yang Muyan might have changed her appearance. But if she really did, he did not have an effective method to find her, unless she did something that would draw his attention.
Yang Muyan had remained hidden during the past two months. She had done nothing out of the ordinary and that made people think that she was gathering forces to do something big.
That was exactly what Yang Muyan wanted to do.
Jing Yiran had gotten impatient on the walking street, because Lu was unused to the crowd. She looked pale and seemed rather ufortable.
For some reason, Jing Yiran felt extremely concerned for her.
He gave Lu a small hug, ignoring the flirty look of numerous women around him and asked in a low voice, How are you feeling? Are you alright? What about finding a ce to sit down. I can go to Yang Muyan, myself.
No need. Lu shook her head softly, I will go with you.
She paused and then said with hesitation, My energy is draining out, and the other Lu might rece me in such a crowded environment. So if I pass out, dont get surprised.
Jing Yiran was surprised. He had not expected that taking Lu out would lead to such consequences.
If the other innocent Lu showed up to rece the present Lu, then it would be Jing Yirans turn to protect her instead of the other way around.
The other Lu was capable, but she did not know how to use it. Her intelligence level was that of a kid.
While Jing Yiran was busy being anxious, someone bumped into him.
Before Jing Yiran could swear at him, he found a paper ball stuffed into his hands.
The person lost himself in the crowd and disappeared.
Ignoring the man, Jing Yiran opened the paper ball and saw an address written on it.
He ran towards that address with Lu immediately.
Yang Muyan saw Jing Yiran leaving the spot as she stood on the second floor. She put down the coffee cup elegantly, and put on arge pair of Dior sunsses. She picked up an exquisite parasol, grabbed a small white leather bag and walked out of the cosmetics store gracefully.
There were numerous women dressed in the same way as Yang Muyan on the walking street. They might not have an amazingly beautiful appearance, yet they carried a parasol with them, wore a pair of sunsses, and held a small bag, making Yang Muyan one of them.
Jing Yiran reached an underground coffee store following the address.
There were many coffee stores on the walking street and most of them were situated underground, because the rent was much lower there and the environment much quieter, suitable for couples to take a rest.
Jing Yiran reserved a ce at the coffee store and brought Lu inside.
It was very quiet and only two of them were here. Gentle music started to float about, and the scent of coffee was all around. Soon, Lu rxed and looked much better.
But it was because of this quiet environment that made her pass out in Jing Yirans arms.
Jing Yiran panicked and called out to her anxiously, Lu!
Lu opened her eyes drowsily and asked with widened eyes when she saw Jing Yirans face, Second Brother?!
Jing Yirans heart sunk.
Only the fourteen-year-old Lu would call him Second Brother.
Lu got up and surveyed the environment. She looked at him in confusion and asked, Second Brother, where are we? Why am I here? I remember....Ah, I remember nothing! My head aches!
The two versions of Lu did not share the same memory. Each would know what they were confronted with individually but never knew what the other Lu was facing. That was one of the shorings of split personalities.
Jing Yiran could not help butugh bitterly at the sight of Lu in this status.
He truly doubted if there was anyone else in this world who had gone through the same experience as he was undergoing. It felt as if he was in a rtionship with two people.
He had no special feeling towards this young Lu. He only regarded her as his sister.
But he was always reminded of the other Lu when he saw this face.
That made Jing Yiran feel extremely troubled.
If he became Lus real boyfriend, what would he do if such a situation happened?!
For example, if when they were driven by desire and about to kiss, the other Lu disappeared and this Lu appeared, should he continue with the kisses or be the Second Brother?
He had a desire to kiss the other Lu ,yet for this fourteen-year-old Lu, he truly could not give her a kiss even if they had the same face.
Should she be counted as one person or two under such a situation?! Was she going to be like this throughout her life?
Second Brother found himself troubled. Why must he run into such a difficult situation?
What on earth had he done in his previous life that he had to receive such a punishment in his present life?
Seeing the mans contorted face, Lu could not help but say in concern, Second Brother, are you having a cramp in your stomach? I can massage it for you. Sister Shangguan says that a touch on the stomach would make it okay again.
Not a cramp in the stomach, but a pain in the head!
Second Brother, I dont think that you should hold me in this way. Sister Shangguan says that women and men are different and no one apart from my husband should hold me like this.
What the hell! You are a 14 years old girl. What do you know about women and men?
Shangguan Ning was such a sinister woman who kept brainwashing Lu. Why did she keep mentioning Sister Shangguan all the time?
Second Brother, do you have... candies? I am hungry and I want a lollipop with mango vour. Please give me candies and I will let you touch me. I wont tell Sister Shangguan about it, alright?
Jing Yiran felt that he would die of torture tortured by Lu before Yang Muyan even arrived.
No, shut up!
Jing Yiran bellowed. He could not stand it any more.
But Lu was not scared of him. She jumped off and said with displeasure, You want to hug me without even giving me any candy. Sister Mi is right. You men are all bastards. You never take responsibility!
Jing Yiran was almost choked by the hot coffee sip which he had just taken.
Chapter 532 - A Life full of Drama
Chapter 532: A Life full of Drama
Jing Yiran, of course, knew who Sister Mi was.
She was referring to Mi Xiaoxiao, who was in a good rtionship with Shangguan Ning. When he had been at Jingsheng Enterprise, he saw Mi Xiaoxiao pampering Lu many times. But what he never expected was that Lu would pick up such words from Mi Xiaoxiao.
Damn, the one who should know about such stuff knew nothing and the one who did not know, pretended to be so knowledgeable!
As he saw Lu walking out with displeasure, Jing Yiran dragged her back, fearing that she would run into some trouble.
Then he said with a sunken face, Dont mess around now. I am meeting someone. After the meeting, I will buy you candy, but not now.
Hearing that he was going to buy her the candy, Lu got very happy. She went back and sat down, fiddling with her strange outfit.
She was wearing a ck sportswear. But it was not her color. She liked beautiful and shiny clothes in candy colors, but what made her feel curious was not the sportswear, but the tight-fitting gear inside the sportswear.
What was more curious was that despite twoyers of clothes, she did not feel hot. She was not sure what the tight-fitting outfit was made of, but it felt veryfortable to have it on her.
With hands tucked under her chin, Lu thought for a long while but still failed to figure out when she had ever possessed such a dress. But she often ran into strange stuff and was used to that. So she never thought too much about it. Sometimes when she opened her eyes, she would find herself in apletely strange ce in strange clothes and surrounded by strangers.
It did not take long before Yang Muyan arrived, alone.
Jing Yiran stared at her for one whole minute when he saw her.
The woman in front of him was dressed in a white dress. Her waist and limbs were slender and breasts plump. Her legs were long and straight. She had an air of a nobledy. She looked nothing less than a TV star.
This woman was.... Yang Muyan?!
Lu mumbled as she stared at Yang Muyan, Thisdy looks like a fairy. She is so beautiful...
It was the most pleasing thing that Yang Muyan had heard in her life. She did not want to be praised as being intelligent, graceful, but wanted to be known for her beauty.
But ever since she was born, very few people had praised her for being beautiful. Only the staff at the cosmetic store had told her that she looked amazing.
But she was praised by a baby-faced girl today. Babies and children never lied. What they saw they said.
Yang Muyan suddenly became very happy.
She showed a bright smile, sat down on the chair opposite Jing Yiran elegantly and said calmly, You cant recognize me?
What happened to her voice?
Although it was notpletely normal, her voice was no longer as hoarse as before, one that made people ufortable.
Seeing that her appearance only resembled 30% of the old Yang Muyan, Jing Yiran asked the woman with a frown. You are not Yang Muyan, are you?
Yang Muyan smiled proudly, I am.
Even Jing Yiran could not recognise her, and that meant that her surgery was a sess.
Jing Yiran was still confused inside his heart C he was not sure if this woman was Yang Muyan, but no matter who she was, she must be a close friend of Yang Muyans.
He always thought that Yang Muyan would never agree to meet with him so easily.
Good that he had taken over the seeking job himself this time without getting Jing Yichen involved, otherwise Yang Muyan would have known that it was a trap to meet Jing Yiran, had Jing Yichens men followed him here.
Therefore, Jing Yiran only brought Lu with him today. If he had too many people with him, Yang Muyan would not have agreed to meet him. She must havee now because she failed to find anyone following Jing Yiran.
Yang Muyan could tell Jing Yirans anxiety, so she said nothing but sneered, Arent you already dead?
Jing Yiran soon went back to his old style of being a rich boy. He leaned against the chair, took a sip on the coffee and said nonchntly, I am not going to die so easily. Jing Yichen will have to be the one who dies before me!
Yang Muyan saw Lu who kept pouring the sugar bag into her mouth and asked. What is wrong with her? As far as I remember, she is on Jing Yichens payroll. Arent you afraid of me getting mad when you have his staff with you?
She is mine now. She was thrown out by Jing Yichenst time after she was used by me. She is strong and good at fighting, so I epted her and brought her here as my backup!
Jing Yiran did not try to conceal his fear for Yang Muyan, because if he showed no fear towards her, it would make things look abnormal. What was more, Jing Yiran was really scared of this ruthless woman, fearing that he would be killed by her somehow.
If what Lu had said was true, then Yang Muyan could be the real killer of Zhang Rong, making her his worst enemy!
But Jing Yiran did not show his anger towards her. His handsome face as always was wearing a mocking look, making Yang Muyan feel disdainful towards him.
She thought that it must have been a miracle that a man like Jing Yiran would live for so long after being Jing Yichens enemy.
Nothing about him was great except for his beautiful skin. He was nothingpared to Jing Yichen!
Anyway, no more nonsense. Give back my deration. It would only work if I have it!
Yang Muyan yed with her french styled fingernails and said distractedly, I dont have it with me. Go home and wait for my delivery man. Also, donte seeking me all the time, I am a busy woman. Our coboration will continue, and hopefully, you wont be killed that easily anytime soon.
Jing Yiran was annoyed by her arrogant tone, and the veins on his forehead popped as if he wanted to flip the table and beat her up.
I am warning you, dont get upset! I have my men around me, that is why I came to see you alone. Yang Muyan stopped pretending to be a ssydy. She looked twisted. If I am dead, none of you will make it out of this ce alive!
Jing Yirans heart went cold. Yang Muyan hade well-prepared for the meeting.
She chose this ce because she had arranged everything well enough to keep herself safe.
Pressing down his hatred towards Yang Muyan, Jing Yiran pouted. Yang Muyan, are you mental? I am working with you, because we want to kill Jing Yichen together. If I kill you, I will lose a big support. Even if you are going to die, do so after Jing Yichen is killed. Are you nning to break away from the deal right now?!
Chapter 533 - The Highly Intelligent Scary Woman
Chapter 533: The Highly Intelligent Scary Woman
Yang Muyan felt relieved when she saw Jing Yiran getting furious.
True, Jing Yichen was thest person in this world whom Jing Yichen would ever coborate with. There was no other rtionship between them except hatred towards each other that was never going to go away.
She did not n to break thepromise with Jing Yiran. She was just pretending to test the waters.
Judging from the current situation, it seemed that Jing Yiran was not a problem.
Yang Muyan was smart, but she could not read peoples minds. Jing Yiran himself was amazed by the change in himself, and even Jing Yichen had found it astonishing too. So Yang Muyan could never have seen thating.
Of course I want to continue our coboration. You are indeed a good partner. But I just feel that your survival is a bit weird. What if you faked your death and it turns out that you and Jing Yichen are setting a trap for me.
Yang Muyans voice was getting hoarse. Although her voice was better after the treatment, yet if she talked too much, her throat would ache and gradually, her voice would return to the old state.
But she did not care if Jing Yiran heard her old voice, because he was well aware of how terrible her voice sounded. She had not got her voice treated for Jing Yiran.
She did it for Mu Qing.
Yang Muyan was a stubborn person with a high level of intelligence. She would never stop unless she reached her goal.
Mu Qing was the only man whom she had ever fallen for, and it was impossible for her to give him up.
She had never regarded Zhao Anan as herpetitor. Zhao Anan was just a brainless woman with muscle and she only needed to poke her with a finger to kill her.
But, she was going to keep Zhao Anan alive.
Zhao Anan was simple-minded, but Mu Qing seemed to care a great deal about her. When Zhao Anan went missing, Mu Qing gave up his hospital and the title of director and headed directly to the UK to look for her desperately.
Since this woman meant so much to him, then Mu Qing was definitely going to promise to marry her if she took her as a hostage.
Stupid human beings!
They had so many weaknesses!
Even Jing Yichen who seemed so powerful had his weakness.
Inparison, Jing Yiran did not seem to have any weak point at all.
This man was ruthless and cruel and he never cared about anyone. He did not even care about fortune and status. The only reason why he wanted to take over the properties of the Jing Family was because he wanted to vent his anger.
But Jing Yiran was a bit dumb. That was why he not only failed to achieve anything and had almost lost his life.
It seemed that she had overestimated Jing Yiran by suspecting him.
Even if he was willing to coborate with Jing Yichen, Jing Yichen would not want to do so.
Yang Muyan came to see Jing Yiran herself deliberately because she was prepared to end his life, if he dared to do anything impulsive.
Even if Jing Yiran turned against her by coborating with Jing Yichen behind her back, then Jing Yichen would surely get to know about her having gotten stic surgery done. So whatever Jing Yichen was going to do next would tell her whether Jing Yiran was worth her trust.
She had already calcted everything in advance for todays meeting.
There were only a few members left in the Yang Family and all of them were cowards. They did not dare to seek revenge from Family Jing . She needed to carry the name of the Yang Family being a direct descendant. So she had to be discreet about her actions and avoid taking risks.
She was going to work with Jing Yiran in the future too, because a man who was full of hatred and impulse was worth using.
Ji Bo should also be proficiently used. He was a good sidekick and if she managed it well, then a battle might break out between the Ji Family and the Jing Family. She would then take advantage of the war and collect her trophies from the people involved.
However, Yang Muyan found Ji Bo a bit suspicious, recently. She was going to kill someone to test him.
Jing Yiran would never have expected that the woman sitting opposite to him had so many crazy ideas shing across her brain right now.
He knew that he would never be able to guess what Yang Muyan was thinking.
This woman was tricky, someone who killed without hesitation. She was even scarier than Jing Yichen who at least adhered to his own principles.
He should leave this perverted woman to Jing Yichen. He was definitely not going to be able to defeat her, only Jing Yichen could!
There was a 50% chance of this woman being Yang Muyan versus a substitute.
Jing Yiran did not dare to make a decision. If he judged it wrong and killed the wrong person today, then it would be almost impossible to find the real Yang Muyan ever.
Also, if Yang Muyan was killed today, then Lu and he would not make it out of this ce.
Jing Yiran did not need to pretend anything to show an expression of hatred on his face. Jing Yichen is my worst enemy. Either he or I will die. I will never live on good terms with him in my life. He did kill me! But God helped me to survive by leaving the bullet inside my head. It is still there!
Yang Muyans face showed astonishment. Jing Yiran had a bullet in his head?!
Bah! This bullet will not kill me, but it may paralyze me soon. It is pressing my nerves every single day, reminding me that I must take revenge.
That was exactly what Jing Yiran had been thinking during the first two days when he woke up.
If it had not been for Lu, he would have not suppressed the hatred and bowed down to Jing Yichen.
That was why his words showed conviction.
Jing Yiran looked at Lu who kept tearing the sugar sachets on the table and poured them into her mouth. He felt his heart turning mush at the sight.
Yang Muyan was still not convinced that Jing Yiran was not on the same side as Jing Yichen.
She would have never expected that this little girl was the one who changed his mind. This girl acted as if she had not eaten sugar for years like a famished ghost who was seeking food in her second life.
Seeing Jing Yiran looking at Lu, she did it too.
But she stared at Lu for a long time and still did not find anything special about her.
Something was wrong!
If she was not special, why did Jing Yiran have her with him?!
Chapter 534 - No Fight Amongst Brothers (Part One)
Chapter 534: No Fight Amongst Brothers (Part One)
A sinister smile hovered over Yang Muyans mouth. She looked at Jing Yiran and pointed at Lu who was staring at her transfixed. If you hate Jing Yichen so much, what about... killing his old bodyguard? I will believe you fully if you kill her.
Jing Yiran did not expect that Yang Muyan would put forward such an unreasonable requirement.
Killing Lu?
What a cruel woman!
Lu was obviously an underdeveloped woman who had regarded this woman as a fairy. What made her say such a terrible thing?
Lu also stared at Yang Muyan with a pair of widened eyes and said unhappily, You are such a bad woman. Why do you want my Second Brother to kill me? I can kill you with a single fist.
Her face flushed, and she struck hard on the table.
The ssical red wood table was smashed by her into pieces.
That startled Yang Muyan!
She knew that this girl was strong, but did not expect her to be this strong. If that fist hadnded upon a person, then that person would not have survived it.
Yang Muyan, you can coborate with me if you want, or you can just get out if you do not want to. I do not have interest in working with you, so narrow-minded. I can kill Jing Yichen without your help also. Lu is my bodyguard now, if she is killed, are you going to be my bodyguard?
Lu was used to hearing about Jing Yiran wanting to kill Jing Yichen, because they had been on bad terms with each other for a long time yet neither of them had killed the other till now.
Jing Yiran got up and was about to go out, but he turned to Lu and picked her up by her cor and dragged her away.
Give the deration back to me. What use will it be if it is not announced after so long?
Jing Yiran looked at her with disdain. It seemed as if he had no intention of staying back.
As a matter of fact, he wanted to ask more about her current situation and future ns, but if he did that, Yang Muyan would start to suspect him. That was why he stopped halfway.
When he was about to leave the room, Yang Muyan suddenly said in a calm voice, I can help you financially. You are in charge of killing Jing Yichen, how does that sound? I can give you money, men and anything you need.
Jing Yiran turned around and said with a sneer, Tut, I do not trust you any more. You want me to kill this man today and that woman tomorrow, maybe one day it will be my turn to be killed. You can work with anyone you want, but not me!
Having said the words, he ignored Yang Muyan and left with Lu.
But Lu was still shouting loudly, Second Brother, I want candy! You promised to buy it for me....
Seeing Jing Yiran getting furious and walking away, Yang Muyan finally believed that there was no secret deal between Jing Yiran and Jing Yichen.
She did not leave the coffee store.
If Jing Yiran was trustworthy, then he would not reveal her location to Jing Yichen. So what she could do now was to enjoy the coffee and pay for the broken table which Lu had destroyed.
A couple of dayster, Jing Yiran received the deration from Yang Muyan.
After reading it carefully and making sure that it was authentic, he let out a sigh of relief.
It seemed that Yang Muyan had believed him.
Jing Yiran could not help but feel a bit proud. He had fooled such a smart person like Yang Muyan by putting on a show. Maybe he should consider going into the entertainment industry if he does not have any job in the future. After all, he had the face and the acting skills that might make him a Movie King.
Jing Yiran was not going to announce the deration. In order to make Jing Yichen trust him and ensure Lus return to Family Jing, he returned the deration to Jing Yichen.
Jing Yiran met Jing Yichen in person to give him such an important paper. He did not have any trustworthy men like Yang Muyan, who could be entrusted to deliver this important document.
It was midnight, and the venue was the beach again. No one else apart from these two brothers was present there. They were both tall, handsome and noble, and had the blood of Family Jing running in them.
They had done whatever they could, to push each other towards death. They had once sworn that they would make each other miserable.
But unexpectedly, they were facing one another peacefully at this moment.
Neither of them had ever expected that they would talk in this way.
Here is your deration. I have also found Yang Muyan. I believe that you have almost found the people behind Tang Yun. I have done whatever I could. Now, when can Lu return to the Jing Family?
Jing Yichen still found the whole thing unreal despite holding the deration in his hand.
After all, he and Jing Yiran had been in a fight with each other for years. But now, Jing Yiran suddenly changed. He was like a docile sheep who used to be a wolf earlier.
Jing Yichen had not experienced the feeling of hitting cotton with a fierce fist, but now he felt that with Jing Yiran.
He had thought of all kinds of countermeasures just in case Jing Yiran changed his mind by coborating with Yang Muyan.
But none of the countermeasures were needed.
Jing Yiran had returned and done all this really for Lus sake!
He did not care about the bullet in his head and did not even ask him for Mu Qings help for taking it out. Instead, all he did was ask for Lus return under Family Jings protection.
Jing Yichen had never expected that when he drove Lu away, Jing Yiran would change so tremendously.
He knew that Jing Yiran was a proud person and would not turn to him for help for his own self. He would rather die an arrogant death than live a life under him.
A fight required two people and if one of them submitted, the fight would not continue.
Jing Yichen could not utter a single mean word which he had prepared beforehand.
He did not find this man familiar at all.
Jing Yichen tore the deration and tossed the paper into the sea.
You did have done a great deal for us, but that is not enough for Family Jing to extend the shelter. But as long as she stays in A City, she would not be in any danger. She needs blood transfusion next week and I will get it ready for her.
Chapter 535 - No Fight Amongst Brothers (Part Two)
Chapter 535: No Fight Amongst Brothers (Part Two)
Since Jing Yiran hade topromise, he would naturally offer him something else as well to get him to agree.
Yang Muyan is always on the move and is totally unpredictable. You must stay in touch with her, because she is not the only one I n to kill. Her helpers as well as some of her men are well-cultivated people in the Yang Family, and none of them must be left. Lu would formally be epted by the Jing Family the day when Yang Muyan dies.
When Jing Yiran heard that Lu would only be epted formally by the Jing Family when Yang Muyan died, he could not help but re at Jing Yichen. He was about to burst out with some horrible words when he thought about something and swallowed down the angry words.
At least Jing Yichen had agreed to do the blood transfusion for Lu and guaranteed her safety in A City. He should be grateful for that.
For now, Lu was safe and did not need to kill anyone or hide herself from the enemies.
For some reason, as long as he thought of Lu, everything that used to be so difficult suddenly turned easy and simple.
Jing Yiran was not sure if that meant that he had fallen in love with Lu because he had never felt it before.
He had always thought that he liked Shangguan Ning, so he wanted to irritate her, protect her, hear her voice and see her smile.
But he had never thought about bending down in front of Jing Yichen for her sake. He would never lose his self-esteem because of her.
But at this moment, he would give up everything for Lu. He wondered whether it was due to the feeling of gratitude that he was treating Lu so well, or because he wanted to keep her safe as she stupidly gave up everything for his sake.
Did he like Lu? He truly did.
Did he love Lu? Jing Yiran could not answer the question. He was unable to tell what was love.
What he knew was that he did not want Lu to get hurt and wanted her to live a steady and happy life like a normal person. For example, like Shangguan Ning who had a husband who spoiled her rotten and had a son to love.
Lu had had such terrible experiences in the past. She didnt receive any love ever after she turned fourteen and had been living in darkness ever since. Jing Yiran could not help but feel his heart ache whenever he thought of what Lu had been through.
And now he felt relieved when he was able to get Lu a steady life with his own strength.
Okay, leave Yang Muyan to me. I will dig out all of her secret associations.
Jing Yiran still looked slightly arrogant. He was not scared of dealing with Yang Muyan, because he did not need to get in a physical fight with Yang Muyans men. He considered himself skillful when it came to putting on a show.
Having said the words, he turned around, ready to go.
He had nothing more to share with Jing Yichen. Although their rtionship seemed to have be better than before, neither of the parties trusted each other deeply after all.
Jing Yiran had just taken a few steps when Jing Yichens calm voice arose from behind. After Yang Muyan dies, you can go to Mu Qing and get your bullet removed. He has a sess rate of over 90% in this kind of surgery.
Jing Yiran stopped, and turned around to stare at Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen did not look at him but left the beach immediately.
Who would want to die if one could live on?
Jing Yichen had offered him such a temptation, like an excellent businessman. They had already finished negotiating a deal when he added the benefits.
No wonder his men were so loyal towards him C he was observant and generous!
Now Jing Yiran realized why all his men turned out to be so useless. He had never used the correct method.
As he returned to his own vi, he was reminded of what Tiger told him a couple of days ago.
Second Master, Master said that if you and Lu live somewhere else, you would lose your importance in front of everyone. So you can live here for the time being. Master is always very kind-hearted, and if you are nice to him, he will be nice to you as well. See, you are on good terms with each other right now, arent you?
When Jing Yiran first returned to A City, he had no ce for himself. So when Jing Yichen gave them the ce to live, at least the amodation issue was settled.
Although he was epting favors from him, Jing Yiran still felt quite shocked inside his heart.
He fell into deep contemtion while seated on the sofa in the dark living room.
A small figure approached him and asked with a calm voice, Why arent youing to bed?
Jing Yiran looked up when he heard the voice. He stood up abruptly and came to the small figure.
You are awake! He sounded joyful and expectant.
Jing Yiran was able to tell the two personalities apart just by one sentence.
He picked her up and walked into the bedroom. In a charming voice, he said, Lets go to sleep!
Lu did not protest.
She had gradually be habituated to being picked up by Jing Yiran in this way. He always made her feel warm. Because of the transformation in her genes, she was always very cold, and low temperature could stop the cells from being active and extending the expiration of cells too. That was to say, if the destructive forces of the virus were gone, then Lu would live for much longer than normal people.
That was why she still had the baby-face and the baby voice.
Lu had witnessed the happenings between men and women many times, but she did not understand what was so good about it. She also had no idea why two people had to kiss each other when they were together.
She did not have a very profound understanding towards it nor did she find it to be anything special. She had no reaction towards a mans manhood and did not find any intimate behaviors by a man to be improper.
So when Jing Yiran carried her to the bed, she felt nothing and did not push Jing Yiran away.
She found the embrace to be cosy and snuggled in his arms, closing her eyes in satisfaction.
The virus inside her body was getting active recently and she was feeling cold even in the month of June.
When Jing Yiran saw Lu behaving so obediently by letting him hug her and share the same bed with her, he felt very proud and even started to smile.
But soon he froze.
Because some part of his body, which had been sleeping for more than one year, was again awake after Lus proximity.
Twice, both because of Lu!
Chapter 536 - Feverish or Coquettish
Chapter 536: Feverish or Coquettish
Jing Yiran suddenly felt that his body was on fire. He felt very thirsty and drank a full cup of cold water.
But the water did not help.
He was still feeling very thirsty!
Whenever he took Lus supple and small body into his arms, the part which he had always been so proud of, worked again!
Lu was like an exquisite doll lying in bed against the moonlight. Her face was damp and shining and her long eyshes looked beautiful. Her lips were cute and plump. Everything about her was calling out to him.
Jing Yiran kept mumbling inside his heart C she is not my type, she is not my type, no, she is not!
During the past thirty years, she had never been Jing Yirans type.
But now things were different. He was not sure if she was, and that was why he kept indicating to himself that she was not his type.
However, it did not work. He shut his eyes and could still imagine the beauty of the body that was leaning against him!
Lus legs were on his thighs, and her arms were around his waist. Her belly was against his whilst her breasts were pressed against his chest.
What was going on with this girl? Why was she snuggling into him so much?
She was basically killing him!
What was more, when Lu lifted her legs, he almost lost his control and took hold of her right there and then.
He was trying very hard to fight against the evil inside his heart. At this moment, Lu opened her eyes, and felt his wrist. She said with a frown, What is wrong with you? Your temperature is rising, your heartbeat is increasing and there is a flush on your face. Have you got a fever?
Jing Yiran was seriously irritated now!
He didnt have a fever, he was feeling lusty.
What was going to happen, when a sexually experienced man who had not had sex for one whole year ran into a girl who never had sex?
He would die trying to control his urges.
Jing Yiran tried to suppress his desire, yet he failed. He held Lus chin, lowered his head and kissed her.
He was good at kissing and had enough experience. The moment he touched Lus supple and sweet lips, he became aggressive and lost himself in her mouth.
He opened her teeth with his smooth tongue and stuck it into her mouth, meshing with her smooth tongue.
Lu was thoroughly confused!
What was happening? What did she say that made Jing Yiran kiss her so crazily? Was he kissing or biting? Look at her lips, they were bleeding!
She had seen many people kissing however this time, she was not an onlooker but a participant! And it did not seem that pleasant.
After a long time, Jing Yiran became breathless with excitement. His heart galloped away.
But he was very mellow towards this woman. He wanted her to experience the excitement and wondered if she had enjoyed it as much as he did.
His hands gently caressed Lus cheeks and asked her gently. Did you like me kissing you? Did you feel good?
Lu looked at Jing Yiran who was totally different from his usual self. No, I didnt! It didnt feel good!
Jing Yirans face shrunk.
She did not like it?!
He was a good kisser. No woman had everined before.
He nted a few kisses upon the now swelling lips whilst gently biting them. When he heard Lus low moaning, he stopped in satisfaction.
It is okay, quite understandable, considering that you never kissed anyone before. You will start to enjoy it soon. We have time and I have experience, so I will teach you!
Jing Yiran suddenly realized that it was a good thing that Lu had never had any intimate experience. It meant that she had never had any men in her life, only him!
He tried hard to control the strong desire inside his heart as he massaged Lus naked back gently.
He was trying very hard to control himself.
He wanted to take her so badly right now, but he did not want to take advantage of her.
Lu felt veryfortable by the massage from his hands. So she leaned into Jing Yiran, once again.
She thought for a moment and said in a soft voice, You feel warm. It feels good.
Jing Yiran smiled brightly. This girl learns fast!
His lips curved and he whispered in her ears. You feel cold, and it feels good to have you in my arms on hot days.
Saying so, Jing Yiran suddenly realized that Lu did feel cold. It was June and she was still seeking warmth.
Jing Yiran somehow felt that something was wrong.
Why are you so cold?
Lu said in a straightforward manner, Because my genes have been transformed by the virus and my temperature is lower than that of normal people. Now the virus is going to resurface soon, causing the temperature to go even lower, and making me colder.
Jing Yirans desire was instantly gone.
He finally understood why Lu wanted to be next to him.
She was feeling cold!
He held her close, trying to pass his warmth to her.
After a few minutes, he asked in a slightly hoarse voice. Jing Yichen says that you need a blood transfusion every sixth month?
Lu answered softly, Yes, the due date should be next week.
What will happen if you dont go through the process?
My body will fail in the battle against the virus, and my cells will die, so will I in half a years time.
Her voice sounded calm. Obviously, she had epted the truth and did not fear death.
But Jing Yirans heart ached.
He took Lu into his arms and kissed her unlined forehead gently. He continued in a muffled voice. I asked Jing Yichen and he said that the blood you receive is not ordinary, but processed especially to fight against the virus, otherwise it will be invaded by the virus very soon. He says that only a few people in the world are able to do this work and it costs a great deal.
As a matter of fact, Mu Wensheng was the only person who could process and make the changes to the blood to fight against the virus, and there was going to be arge amount of original blood needed for the work, which cost a great deal of energy and money. Almost all the blood collected was used to make the special blood for Lu.
If we had not returned, what would have happened to your blood transfusion? Did you n to die?
Chapter 537 - Only You
Chapter 537: Only You
Apart from the Mus Hospital, there was nowhere else where the special blood could be prepared for her.
It was a project that not only required arge amount of original blood but also a doctor who was good at it. Money and energy were also required and all these conditions could not be met outside the country.
The time for Lus blood transfusion had been approaching.
Jing Yiran held Lu in his arms and murmured in a low voice as his eyes turned red. Silly girl, I am not worth your sacrifice. Remember that no matter what happens next time, care about your own life first. I want you to stay alive!
He knew that Lu sacrificed her own life for him.
If she had deserted him and returned to A City and begged for protection from Jing Zhongxiu, Jing Zhongxiu would have definitely taken her back for her uncles sake. After all, he had kept her for so many years. Jing Zhongxiu would not have been stingy.
Jing Yiran truly did not think that he was worth Lus sacrifice.
No one in his life had ever treated him so nicely. He held the title of the Second Master of the Jing Family, but he was just a love child whose mother was never given the title of a wife publicly and whose father did not like or care about either of them. People respected him because of Jing Zhongxiu, not because they admired him.
He had hated them deep in his marrow. He had wanted to reach the top of the world to show them how excellent he could be and how blind they had all been!
But at this moment, Jing Yiran felt no more hatred.
He had received warmth and care from someone who nearly sacrificed her own life for his sake. He did not care about those who disliked him. He only cared about Lu now.
Lu might be slow emotionally, yet she could tell that Jing Yiran was moved.
She said calmly, I thought that you died after you got shot, so there was no meaning for me to live on any longer. So I cared about nothing any more.
She had not wanted to live on after he died?
Jing Yiran felt his heart skip a beat.
He regretted deeply that he had used Lu. She had been so cold towards him that he never realized how much she cared about him. If he had, he would not have been so impulsive.
He almost got both of them killed!
Then you woke up, but the doctors who checked you, told me that you could live at most for a year or slightly more and would soon turn in a vegetative state if the bullet is not pulled out. I thought that when you neared your death, I would shoot you and then shoot myself. I hate the virus inside my body and when I die, it will die with me.
Jing Yiran had never seen anyone who did not care about her own life to this extent!
Neither of us will die! I wont, neither will you! Jing Yichen told me that he would ask Mu Qing to take out the bullet for me and that Mu Qing has a 90% sess rate with this kind of surgery.
He recounted what Jing Yichen had told him.
Jing Yiran felt a touch of surprise. He had never expected that he would hear such positive words ever from Jing Yichen.
What was going on? Jing Yichen had been the culprit who put the bullet into his head.
And now he had to be grateful to him, instead!
That would be great! Doctors from Family Mu are excellent and Mu Qing is very reliable. Lu said calmly. She sounded like she trusted the Mu Family a great deal.
Jing Yiran could tell that Lu sounded relieved. Destiny was a wonderful thing. Lu did not seem that grateful to Jing Zhongxiu who kept her protected for so many years, nor did she seem passionate towards Shangguan Ning who treated her like a sister. But she had a special feeling towards him.
If I do not die, you will live on too, right?
Of course I will live on. Otherwise who will protect you?
Jing Yiranughed. She sounded like a gangster saying such words!
But Lu said those words in a serious way like she meant them.
Jing Yiran did not argue with her.
Lu might have protected him on the sly many times, which is why he never noticed a thing. All he could vaguely remember was Lu keeping himpany every time he felt that he was dying.
As he thought about the past, Jing Yiran somehow felt a bit happy.
Now he could also use his own strength to protect Lu. He was a man and would not allow a woman to shelter him. He must be the shelter for Lu!
Sleep. I am warm and I can be your personal furnace all the time. Dont worry about being cold. I will keep you warm.
Jing Yiran gently put the nket over Lus body, adjusted his posture so that she could be morefortable in his arms.
He couldnt recall thest time that he had treated a woman so nicely. He was turning into a careful and considerate man because of Lu, who funnily, was rougher and tougher than a man.
Earlier, Jing Yiran would have scoffed if he witnessed a man doing such sweet and thoughtful gestures.
But now, he did not find anything improper about his own actions.
He would also keep an eye out for Lus monthly period cycle and prepare the necessary stuff for her.
Since she had two personas inside her, she could not keep track of her periods. Thest cycle happened ten days ago and she had not been aware of it. As a result, the sheet was dyed red.
Also, Lu didnt have the sanitary napkins handy. It was Jing Yiran who bought those for her at the store.
Jing Yiran felt quite satisfied to have done whatever he could for her and think about things on her behalf.
He had never known that he could be an easily satisfied man.
He had been greedy and ambitious earlier and ignored many pleasant things around him. Lu once told him that he had never lived for himself but he didnt want to ept her words. Honest words hurt, but it was true that he had never lived for himself ever.
He had only wanted to exceed Jing Yichen!
But even if he stood at the top of the world, he would still be a lonely, pathetic man.
Instead, if someone could keep him warm, it was enough even if they were in hell.
Lu soon fell asleep after she rxed in Jing Yirans arms.
Jing Yiran made a decision as he saw her sleeping face.
Chapter 538 - Blood Donation Part One
Chapter 538: Blood Donation Part One
Deep in the night of the following day, Jing Yichen received another call from Jing Yiran.
Shangguan Ning was not sleeping this time. She was feeding Jing Rui who had woken up because of hunger.
When she saw Jing Yirans name appearing on Jing Yichens phone screen, sheughed.
Seems like he contacts you very frequently these days!
She sounded suggestive as if there were something going on between the brothers. Jing Yichen shook his head helplessly.
We are not really on good terms with each other. He might have something important, otherwise he would note to me.
Jing Yichen kissed Shangguan Ning on the cheek, picked up his coat and walked out after briefly telling her that he would be back soon.
Forty minutester, four different styled men were seated in the ordinary-looking car.
One of them was drowsy, with unkempt hair, and even his clothes were creased. Apparently, he had been dragged out of bed.
Mu Qing yawned loudly and mumbled in dissatisfaction. Jing Yiran, so you are not dead. I knew that a bad bug like you would not die so easily. Tut, tut, what a fortunate man! Normal people would either die or be paralyzed with a bullet into their heads, but you seempletely fine. What an unfair world!
Jing Yichen had once asked him if a man could survive with a bullet inside his head. He had told him that he ran into several such patients when he was on a study exchange program at an international hospital. All of them turned out to be survivors who had got a bullet in the head.
Mu Qing had thought that Jing Yiran would surely jump up and curse him after what he said, but he only threw a cold look at him and did not react.
How curious!
Mu Qing had been sleepy but got a shock when he saw how differently Jing Yiran was behaving.
He continued to stimte him by hitting his bottomline, It is one in the night and you called me to get your blood. Arent you being merciless? Sleep is very important for doctors. Do you know that if I dont get a good sleep, I may take out the brain instead of bullet out of someones head. Do you think that you can take the responsibility?
Why do you need to get your blood extracted? You are too skinny. Are you nning to turn into a corpse because the bullet was not enough to kill you? I am a moral driven doctor who would never do such a thing!
Although Mu Qing made loud objections, he extended his fingers to feel Jing Yirans pulse.
Seated on the drivers seat, Tiger wanted tough at what Mu Qing said, but he suppressed it.
Jing Yichen sitting next to him did not have any expression on his face. He felt no guilt in getting Mu Qing here at this hour. He was ok with what Jing Yiran wanted to do with his own blood.
Jing Yiran had been a man with a strong temper, but he knew that Lu would need the Mu Hospitals help so he would not argue with Mu Qing. Also, he was asking Mu Qing to extract the blood out of him and soon he would need him to take out the bullet for him. So he was the second most important person after Jing Yichen.
He would be seeking trouble if he treated a top doctor like Mu Qing badly.
Jing Yiran didnt care about his self-esteem when it came to Lu, but he would never lose his face for his own self. Enough was enough.
Hey, stop being so shameless. I turned to you because you are skilled, but I still remember what you did on me with the needles. Watch out! I may take Zhao Anan away from you again if you continue to be so rude. This time I will not be merciful. You better handle my blood well.
Mu Qing became furious instantly.
You shameless bastard! You kept Anan imprisoned for half a year and I almost lost my life in seeking her. I will put a needle in you now.
Mu Qing grabbed a silver needle and put it into Jing Yirans palm.
Jing Yiran screamed in pain, making even an experienced man like Tiger feel scared.
He shook his head and thought that Jing Yiran was indeed asking trouble. No one should irritate Mu Qing, otherwise he would regret it.
The screamsted for two minutes and Jing Yiran could not stand the torture any more. He bellowed, I will not imprison your woman ever, just pull out the needle!
Mu Qing slowly pulled the needle out and smiled proudly as he saw Jing Yirans irritated look. I will take the blood out of you, but I wont bring out too much, just enough for you to fail to open your eyes again, rest in peace!
Jing Yiran was in pain, and his face was pale. It got paler after hearing what Mu Qing said.
But he suppressed it and said seriously, Take out as much as you can.
Mu Qings hands, which were tying the stic tube around Jing Yirans arm, paused. He looked up in surprise. His mouth was wide enough to even fit an egg inside.
He turned to Jing Yichen. Who is this man? Has your brothers body been switched? Maybe this guy is from the future?
Jing Yichen felt relief in his heart when he saw Mu Qings surprised look.
It seemed that he was not the only one who found the change in Jing Yiran.
Jing Yichen said calmly, Just take his blood. It is for Lu. His blood type is O and it should be a match.
For Lu?
Mu Qing got even more astonished!
Since when did Jing Yiran be so kind-hearted that he would donate his blood for others?!
Would the sun rise from the west the following morning?
He would probably get sick because of the shocks he was receiving tonight.
Jing Yiran, it is very scary that you have turned docile. Lu has already got enough blood for the change this time, and my grandpa is also ready to deal with the anti-virus procedure. Are you sure you want to make a donation?
Chapter 539 - Blood Donation (Part Two)
Chapter 539: Blood Donation (Part Two)
I am certain! Can you stop babbling? I cant stay with you guys for too long, or I will lose Yang Muyans trust if her men discover me. Just do it. It is my blood not yours! Why are you so slow? No wonder you are nothing more than a good looking man.
Jing Yiran had forgotten how much he suffered from Mu Qings needle sometime back, when he started to swear at him.
Mu Qing was too surprised to argue with him, so he asked him calmly, Does Lu know that you are being so nice to her?
Furious, Jing Yiran answered subconsciously, Of course, she does!
When did you guys get together? You hid it well!
We... none of your business! Are you taking out the blood or not?! Jing Yiran looked so furious. This man was such a gossipmonger.
Mu Qing was actually trying to test if his feelings for Lu were true or not.
This was surreal. Jing Yiran had feelings for Lu!
Lu was indeed pretty, but pretty like a doll, one who would only be regarded as a little child rather than as a woman by most men. Also, she was definitely not Jing Yirans type.
Haha, I never expected that a womanizer like you would one day be so devoted to a woman and even want to donate your blood for her. Are you trying to be an obedient and nice man?
Seeing Mu Qings surprised look, Jing Yiran, who was normally quite arrogant, became slightly shy.
Normally, he would not have done such a thing for a woman. But now, he looked like a young man deeply in love and ready to do whatever he could for the woman he adored.
After teasing Jing Yiran and cursing him for a few more minutes, Mu Qing finally started to extract the blood out of Jing Yiran.
Before he came here, Jing Yichen had already told him that he was to extract Jing Yirans blood. That was why he had all the things ready, including the pipe and a dozen empty blood packets that could contain 400ml blood respectively. After all, he was going to take blood out of Jing Yiran.
Mu Qing would never miss such a great opportunity to take revenge!
Soon, Mu Qing took out 800ml of blood from him.
But he hesitated when he reached for the third packet.
800ml blood was the maximum limit for a healthy adult. Any more blood would make Jing Yiran pass out because of a hemorrhage.
By this time, Jing Yiran felt slight weakness, but nothing else. So when he saw Mu Qing stopping, he red at him. Why are you stopping? Go on!
Mu Qing threw a disdainful look at him and reminded him out of kindness. Any more of this will kill you. You only have limited blood inside you. ording to your weight, this amount would make you feel weak but some more will make you faint.
How much more can you take out? Jing Yiran was not satisfied. He wanted to give some more blood to Lu, because her cold bodyst night had made him feel very concerned.
Mu Qing stared at Jing Yiran as if he were staring at a stranger, then he said after a long pause, In your case, the max amount is a little bit more than 1000ml. Any more than that would kill you instantly. But 1000ml can cause dizziness and you will feel pain in the following days.
He could truly see that Jing Yiran had changed tremendously after his near-death experience and that he adored Lu to the marrow, now!
It is fine, take the max amount out. Jing Yiran did not care about how terrible his situation would be. He just wanted to give some more blood to Lu.
Mu Qing felt that Jing Yiran had been blinded by love, so he did not dare to make a decision but turned to Jing Yichen for instructions.
Jing Yiran got very displeased before Jing Yichen could say a word. He said furiously, Hey Mu, you are taking my blood, what are you staring at him for?
Ignoring hisint, Mu Qing still looked at Jing Yichen. He wanted to take all the blood out from Jing Yiran, but that was definitely not going to be approved by Jing Yichen who might find him useful for the time being.
Seeing the hyperactive Jing Yiran, Jing Yichen said, Take out as much as you can until he is unable to talk.
Mu Qing agreed with Jing Yichen. He found that a lethal man like Jing Yichen was making a very good decision to take the blood out of Jing Yiran to a degree where he could not talk.
Having received the order, Mu Qing resumed his work.
After donating 1200ml, Jing Yiran finally stopped talking. His face was pale and passed out.
Mu Qing put 200ml blood back into Jing Yiran, but he still didnt wake up.
Seeing Jing Yiran in such a state, Mu Qing suddenly felt that he was not as annoying as before.
What a fool! After he fell for Lu, he started to ignore his own life totally.
Mu Qing understood clearly what this feeling was.
If one day it was Zhao Anan who needed blood, he would give his own to her without any hesitation.
Tiger, get Knife Lee to send Jing Yiran back. Be careful about not being discovered by anyone.
Yes, Master!
Seeing Jing Yiran unconscious, Lu could not help but frown. What is wrong with him?
Knife Lee had wanted to carry Jing Yiran directly into the bedroom, because a heavy man like Jing Yiran would be too much for a little girl to carry.
Unexpectedly, however, Lu took Jing Yiran from him without much effort and it seemed that she had no difficulty in carrying him at all!
Knife Lee had never met anyone stronger than him, so he could not help but size her up, failing to find anything special about this woman.
He came to Master today to donate blood. He apparently gave too much, so he passed out. Doctor Mu says that he is fine, just needs some rest and supplementary nutrition.
Knife Lee recounted whatever Tiger had told him.
Blood donation? Lu was a bit surprised. What for?
To help a woman called Lu.
Knife Lee assumed that this strong woman must be Lu. But he did not ask or say any more and left.
Standing on the spot, Lu stared at this man who was in the arms.
After a long while, she lowered her head and let out a sigh. Silly man, what do I need your blood for?
Chapter 540 - Blood Transfusion
Chapter 540: Blood Transfusion
Jing Yiran woke up on the evening of the following day.
He was generally healthy, so apart from feeling weak and a bit dizzy, he was mostly fine.
Seeing him wake up, Lu said in a serious tone, No more stunts like this again.
I am fine, I will recover soon.
Jing Yiran had not nned to tell Lu about him giving her the blood. But she got to know about it after all and that made him feel a bit ufortable.
When will the blood transfusion happen?
The day after tomorrow.
I will go with you!
Lu looked at him quietly and said with a soft voice, No need, I can go on my own. You just stay at home and rest.
Let me go with you, what if you are reced by the other one that day again?
Wont happen. It is very unlikely that she would rece me when the virus is breaking out. When my energy is draining badly, its always me there.
Jing Yiran got startled. He did not expect that the virus could work in this way.
But he still insisted. I will keep youpany, anyway!
Lu could not persuade him. So two dayster, Jing Yiran went to the Mus Hospital with her.
They went there deep at night, fearing that Yang Muyans men would discover them.
At the Mus Hospital, Doctor Mu and Mu Qing were waiting for them.
There was a huge secret hidden inside Lus body, and if someone else knew about the powerful virus that could improve mankinds gene, she would attract a lot of different people. So only Mu Wensheng and Mu Qing knew about this treatment.
Jing Yichen was not here. Lu had done this numerous times, and Mu Wensheng had never failed at it, so Jing Yichen did not think that this matter was worth his attention.
Mu Wensheng had learnt from Jing Tianyuan that Jing Yiran had not died, so he was not surprised to see him at this moment. But he found it curious that Jing Yiran kept Lupany for the surgery. Mu Qing whispered in his ears to tell him what was going on.
Never expected a bastard like you woulde to understand the world. But you two look cute together!
Jing Yiran was surprised that Mu Wensheng would think that he and Lu looked cute together.
Mu Wensheng never praised anyone, and even to his own grandson, he would always lecture and teach him harsh lessons.
Sure enough, Mu Wensheng continued in the next second, One weirdo and one perverted man, really looking cute together!
Jing Yiran did not utter a single word.
He was well aware of how fierce this old dude could get. Even Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen behaved well in front of him, so he had to behave very, very obediently so as to avoid being scolded by this old man.
Lu ignored Mu Wensheng too. She was an introvert. Mu Wensheng might not speak nice words, but he was her savior and she admired him from the bottom of her heart.
After all, even her uncle who had been devoted to the study of viruses was not able to do this for her, but Mu Wensheng managed to put forward a bold n of doing a blood transfusion after studying her physical conditions. It could not permanently cure the virus, but helped expand her lifespan, tremendously.
It sounded like a simple surgery, but the process was actually veryplicated. The virus-infected blood had to be taken out whilst new anti-virus blood must be injected at the same time. During this process, her body couldnt bepletely drained out of blood. The process had to be done slowly and dozens of circtions were done before the density of virus infected blood inside Lu was reduced to the lowest degree.
The virus inside her body had invaded every single cell of hers, so even if the blood was changed, the new red blood cells would soon be infected.
That was why she must get the blood changed every sixth month.
Lu removed her clothes without embarrassment. Then sheid down on the operation table with only her underwear on. This startled Jing Yiran.
But neither Mu Wensheng nor Mu Qing had the slightest change of expression. Mu Qing proficiently connected all instruments to Lu. Her thighs and belly were connected with devices, so was every corner of her body, even her feet.
After the linking was done, the devices were turned on in the operation room, showing the index of Lus physical conditions.
Jing Yiran hesitated for a moment before he made up his mind.
Although he did not feelfortable to see Lu naked in front of two men, they were doctors and must be used to naked bodies. Also, they were trying to make sure that Lu would have a sessful surgery, so it would not work even if he was unwilling to let her do so.
The process of blood changingsted for days, during which time, Lu passed out many times. Since the newly-injected blood was all antivirus blood working against the infected blood inside her body, the body would go in shock for a few minutes.
Mu Wensheng and Mu Qing took turns in doing the procedure but even then, both of them looked very tired with bloodshot eyes.
Mu Qing was slightly better than Mu Wensheng who was much older and needed a long resting time before going back to do the procedure, again.
Jing Yiran was also on guard all the time. He kept Lupany, making her feel warm and cared for. She even stretched out her cold hands to feel Jing Yirans handsome face.
You have grown a beard.
You dont like it?
Jing Yiran half-squatted by the operation table and had his hands over her little ones, trying to give her some warmth. His eyes were brimming with concern.
Lu observed him carefully for a moment and then cracked a slight smile. I do. You look even more handsome now.
Right now, she seemed to be very emotional, no longer cold like her usual self.
Jing Yiran almost had tears trickling down his cheeks. Suppressing the pain in his heart, he showed a charming smile. d that you like it. I will be more handsome and I will only show myself to you!
Mu Qing rolled his eyes as he was busy putting new blood into Lu whilst observing the monitor.
Hey you two, can you not show off your love here? I am still here. You both are so cruel. I am exhausted to death and no one is looking after me. I will leave immediately if you keep up this behaviour.
Ignoring Mu Qing, Jing Yiran kept staring at Lu with a smile.
Lu also ignored Mu Qing and said softly, It feels nice to have you by my side. Will you continue to do this in the future, too?
I will!
Chapter 541 - Evil Trick
Chapter 541: Evil Trick
Mu Qing got really jealous looking at them.
He was still finding it impossible to believe that these two had be a couple.
How curious? But this was a fact now and he better believe it.
Now he suspected more and more that someone else was in Jing Yirans body, otherwise he would not be treating a woman so nicely. Hadnt he always regarded women as a rag whom he threw away after one time use?
What was more, could Lu even be counted as a woman? She was a tremendously strong tomboy!
Mu Qing could not help but think of Zhao Anan when he watched the interaction between Jing Yiran and Lu.
He had not seen her for days. She was either at her own home or visiting Shangguan Ning. She adored Jing Rui a lot.
He was the one who had always chased after Zhao Anan, and tried hard to stay close to her. But the closer he came, the further she ran away.
So now, he no longer dared to tag along with Zhao Anan everywhere.
If one of the couple was making sacrifices all the time, he would get tired as time went by.
Mu Qing had gotten tired numerous times, and also confused about what he should do.
For example right now, he was tired. It could be because of the strenuous blood transfusion, or because of the bottleneck which he had run into while courting Zhao Anan.
After he finished injecting thest drop of fresh blood into Lu and saw Lus pale face as well as Jing Yirans concerned one, he suddenly felt very jealous of him.
Even the heartless Jing Yiran had met the woman he loved, and Lu who had no emotional experience, was getting his love and care.
A couple in love would eventually have a good end, as long as both of them stayed devoted.
He had been waiting for Zhao Anan for eleven years, starting from the age 20 all the way to the age of 31.
Mu Qing was certain that he had no interest in any other women. Zhao Anan was the only one for him.
He had been dreaming about making wedding vows with Zhao Anan and spending the rest of their life together in steady happiness.
But he simply had no idea about how to do it. He wanted to keep her by his side, but she kept pushing him away.
After they returned from the UK, Zhao Anan did not treat him so fiercely as before. She smiled and joked with him. But she kept a distance from him.
Mu Qing knew that she was still hesitating.
Even Shangguan Ning could tell what was going on and she had proposed a n which he needed to respond to.
Mu Qing did not want to use any tricks on Zhao Anan. Nor did he want to lie to her. That was why he didnt approve of Shangguan Nings idea.
Seeing Lus condition stabilize, Mu Qing packed up the things, and walked away leaving the couple alone.
As he returned to his own office, he saw his phone ring.
Seeing the callers name on the screen, Mu Qing smiled bitterly yet answered the call, Hey, Sister-inw!
Doctor Mu, am I interrupting you? Shangguan Ning asked with a slight smile. She knew that Mu Wensheng and Mu Qing were busy with Lu, and that the procedure had been going on for days.
No, I am resting! Mu Qing sounded hoarse, still spoke pleasantly. He was a cheerful person and had the ability of driving away the distress in his heart.
How is Lu? Is she okay? Shangguan Ning learnt from Jing Yichen that Lu was suffering from illness, so she was worried that something might have happened to her.
Mu Qing answered assuringly. Dont worry, Sister-inw, Lu is doing fine. The operation will be finished by tomorrow. She wouldnt have any problem for at least five months after this.
Thats good! Shangguan Ning felt assured, and then asked him the same question. Doctor Mu, did you think about my proposal?
Mu Qing smiled bitterly again and answered in a low voice. Sister-inw, lets drop it. I am worried that Anan would... get mad.
Shangguan Ning did not seem to care about what Zhao Anan would feel. Instead, she said with displeasure, Shame on her if she gets mad. Dont worry, if she ever gets to know the truth, I will take the me! I am not afraid of offending her. She sold me out before and this is the time for me to take revenge.
Shangguan Ning would not have done this in the past, because she did not want to force Zhao Anan. What was more, outsiders had no say in anyones rtionship.
But Shangguan Ning had been feeling quite guilty since the time Zhao Anan went missingst time.
She would not have gone missing, if Shangguan Ning had pushed Zhao Anan towards Mu Qing irrespective of Zhao Anans feelings.
She and Zhao Anan had a deep rtionship, so even if she got mad, it would be ok. Soon she would forget being tricked.
Seeing Zhao Anan and Mu Qings rtionship stay stagnant, Shangguan Ning was very worried. So she put forward the countermeasures but Mu Qing disapproved of the idea.
Damn! Mu Qing spoiled Zhao Anan way too much. He did not want Zhao Anan to go through any difort. No wonder Zhao Anan was dominating him.
Mu Qing exined instantly realising that Shangguan Ning was getting unhappy. Thats not what I meant, Sister-inw! You are doing all of this for our sake. You must not take the me. I am very grateful to you, really!
Shangguan Ning chuckled inside her heart but stayed serious on the face. She interrupted Mu Qing and said, Alright, if you are grateful to me, then we will put the n in action, now. You must not tell Anan anything but focus on your performance. I know her well, and even if this trick is a bit bad, it would work well on her. Maybe you will get her to be your wife within two months time.
Ah... Sister-inw, please, I can not...
Before Mu Qing finished the words, the phone was disconnected. He grimaced.
Shangguan Ning never hung up on anyone. That she did it to him this time meant that he had no chance to turn her down.
What was he supposed to do? If Zhao Anan got to know the truth, she was definitely going to kill him.
On the other side, Shangguan Ning kissed Jing Rui after she hung up the phone. Then sheughed. Ruirui, lets go and set your aunt up. Soon you will have Uncle Mu Qing added to the family. Is your mother smart? Haha!
Jing Rui stared at his mother with hisrge, ck eyes and responded with a small yes just to please her.
Chapter 542 - Concern
Chapter 542: Concern
Although Jing Rui must have uttered this sound without knowing what it was or meant, Shangguan Ning was delighted. She spun him around.
My son is so smart! You are surely going to be a genius like your father.
Jing Yichen had just returned home when he heard his wife praising him. He chuckled.
He put down the briefcase, and came to Shangguan Ning. He took his son in his arms, and kissed both of them. He said with a bright smile, What is it going on? You look very happy!
Shangguan Ning looked very proud and pleased. She almost never had this kind of expression on her face.
Shangguan Ning lifted her head to kiss Jing Yichens chin and said mischievously, I am going to take revenge now! Miss. Zhao would soon get unlucky. Hopefully she is able to pull through, otherwise the show would not be as much fun and my preparations would get wasted.
The only Miss. Zhao they knew was Zhao Anan!
Jing Yichens heart stirred after he was kissed by his wife. His Adams apple bobbed when he saw this slender woman and her shining face.
But this annoying little guy in the middle was preventing him from sweeping his woman into his arms.
Jing Yichen lowered his head and saw his son who was blowing bubbles. He mumbled with a grudge C grow up, you little boy! I want to hold your mother.
With Jing Rui in one of his arms and the other over Shangguan Nings slender waist, he said in a gentle, sweet tone, I did not know that you couldy traps as well. Should I give you a hand?
Shangguan Ning thought for a moment and said with a happy smile, Not needed at the moment. I will tell you if I do.
...
At this moment, Zhao Anan was behaving like an obedient girl at home.
After she went missing thest time, the Old Lady of the Zhao Family had been keeping an eye on her only granddaughter. She had got six men from Jing Yichen to stalk her and even hired four very skilled bodyguards for her.
These bodyguards were not there to protect her but to track her movements.
Neither the Old Lady of the Zhao Family nor Zhao Zhao knew that Zhao Anan had been imprisoned during this time. Jing Yichen did not tell them the truth to avoid causing heartache.
Had the Old Lady known about it, she would have hired even more bodyguards.
Zhao Anan was not allowed to go anywhere at the moment, except to visit Shangguan Ning or the Mus Hospital!
She muste back and report her activities every day. She was not allowed to stay overnight anywhere, not even at Zheng Luns!
Grandmother, see how obedient I am these days. Please let me go out to have fun okay? I feel trapped in here. Do you want your only granddaughter to die?
Old people were often quite against the word Death, and the Old Lady of the Zhao Family disliked this word even more, because Zhao Anan was at the verge of death all the time.
She red at her with displeasure. Nonsense! What is so bad about keeping mepany at home? I have not gotten sick after being at home for so long and I even feel quite fresh. You are not allowed to go anywhere, but stay at home.
Zhao Anans charming face crumpled.
She mumbled unwillingly. What is the fun in staying at home every day? There is no one to even talk with. I will go mental if I continue to stay here.
The Old Lady could hear her every word, clearly.
But she was not moved.
It was Shangguan Nings idea that Zhao Anan should not go anywhere. After hearing what Shangguan Ning was going to do, she had started coborating with her.
Ah, Grandmother, I will definitely not run away this time. Can I not have so many people following me all the time? I will be obedient. I will just go to A City to rx myself. Is that okay?
The Old Lady got a bit swayed by what she said. She was about to give her permission when the phone rang.
Zhao Anan nced at the phone and found that the caller was Shangguan Ning.
Strange, how did Shangguan Ning get in touch with grandmother? And why?
Zhao Anan was certain that she had never told Shangguan Ning about her grandmothers phone number. Could it have been Jing Yichen who told her? This was weird! If Shangguan Ning needed something, she shoulde to her instead, why grandmother?
The Old Lady nced at her granddaughter, picked up the phone calmly and spoke about a few inconsequential things and then hung up.
Zhao Anan did not catch what Shangguan Ning said on the other side of the phone, but she could tell that something weird was going on.
Grandmother, why did Ning call you?
The Old Lady lied calmly, Ning cares about my health and calls me often to see if I am doing fine. She said that she will take me to the Mus Hospital for a thorough inspection. What a nice kid!
Aha?
Zhao Anan was surprised.
That did not sound right, did it?
Shangguan Ning was a nice person, but she was not the type who would suck up to anyone. Also, grandmother was doing very well. There was no need for her to call her for that.
The Old Lady was a smart person. She could easily tell that her granddaughter did not believe what she said.
She pretentiously sighed and said, Sigh, I am spoiling you in vain. See, even an outsider is treating me nicely. I almost could not fall asleep when you went missing, fearing that you would run into some trouble. But Ning called me every now and then, telling me jokes and making me happy even during her pregnancy. But you are the one that keeps thinking about going out and running away from marriage. I dont think that I will be able to see you getting married even at my deathbed.
The Old Lady had been acting at the beginning but gradually, she really turned upset.
She had asked Zhao Anan implicitly and explicitly, numerous times about her marriage with Mu Qing, but Zhao Anan always pretended to be either deaf or dumb.
Everyone else was worried about it except for herself!
She might be doing well at the moment, but the Old Lady knew that she had only a few years to go. She would have died ages ago but for the medicine she kept taking all the time.
Chapter 543 - Marrying Mu Qing
Chapter 543: Marrying Mu Qing
The Old Lady had been worried about Jing Yichens marriage, because he was very distant and almost no women could approach him. He had been alone for more than thirty years, and that made her worry.
However, he changed overnight after meeting a virtuous Shangguan Ning. He got married and fathered a child at a jet speed and ended up living a happy life. That made her feel relieved.
She expected that her grandson would live a happy life now.
But now she had started to worry about her granddaughter after her grandson was settled.
She was already 28 years old!
Would Mu Qing wait for her if she continued to refuse him?
Even though Mu Qing was willing to wait for her, the old man of the Mu Family mighte toin to her for not settling down with his grandson. Mu Family would have no offspring left if she kept refusing to get married!
Zhao Anan was worried that her disease would return at some point and that Mu Qing would be affected. But the point was that she was not sick right now and just because she was worried that she might get sick one day, did not mean that she should spend her life all alone.
The Old Lady was very annoyed and had tried all kinds of methods to get her granddaughter shifted to the Mu Family.
But Zhao Anan was a stubborn person. No one would be able to persuade her once she made a decision.
However, Zhao Anans friend Shangguan Ning was sparing no efforts to help her. If the n worked out, Zhao Anan would definitely marry Mu Qing.
When the Old Lady thought of this, she could not help but show a bright smile. When she realized that she had smiled without any reason, she suddenly changed her expressions and turned a cold face towards Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan felt the hair rise on her neck and a touch of unease shed in her heart.
She felt that something was wrong with her grandmother. She had looked so sad a moment ago and then started to smile. But the smile disappeared after one second and now her expression was different again.
Her grandmother had be too fickle!
Grandmother, are you alright?
Damned girl, do you want me to be unwell?!
No! I expect you to live for 500 years more so that you can break some record or something. Zhao Anan held the Old Ladys arms and sounded adorable.
This method used to work well upon the Old Lady, but it failed today. She refused to react and even pushed her away.
Zhao Anan was confused.
She just could not stand being trapped indoors every single day. Where was the fun? She had to face the same thing every single day and there was nothing new happening around. She truly had no idea what she ought to do apart from sleeping.
Was she going to be trapped indoors throughout her life?
Only when the Old Lady was not here any longer, she could step outside for as long as she wanted.
But she did not want her grandmother to be gone. She wanted her to live long and healthy!
Zhao Anan was like a caged bird who could not fly but stare at the vast sky, feeling trapped.
The Old Lady of the Zhao Family threw a look at her granddaughter who looked distressed and felt a bit proud inside her heart about her own performance.
But she did not show anything on her face. After thinking for a moment, the Old Lady said calmly, If you dont want to marry Mu Qing, then just forget about it. I wont force you into it any more.
Zhao Anan looked up abruptly. She was startled.
What did she mean? What made her suddenly say that?
She felt a bit relieved inside her heart, but got a bit sad also.
Anan, let me ask you for thest time. Do you want to marry Mu Qing or not?
The old Lady looked serious. Zhao Anan started to feel very, very ufortable inside her heart.
Why was she forced to make such a choice?
Wasnt her rtionship with Mu Qing going well nowadays?
Zhao Anan felt a bit bitter inside her heart. She knew that she was being selfish.
She did not want to give up Mu Qing, nor did she want to marry him. But she couldnt keep him hanging in a limbo.
She was feeling very messed up inside her heart. She did want to give up everything just to live with Mu Qing, but whenever she saw Mu Qings handsome and sunny smiles, she just could not help but waver.
She no longer had the courage which she had felt in the UK to express her feelings towards him.
When she returned, Mu Qing stopped tagging along with her. Normally, he would go wherever she went and it was impossible to get rid of him.
Could it have been that Mu Qing had lost the patience, finally?
Whenever she thought of the possibility of such a situation, she felt very upset.
She could not ept that Mu Qing had stopped loving her.
But only when Mu Qing stopped loving her, would he want to leave her and marry someone else. Wasnt that always what she wanted?
Mu Qing was an excellent man who should get a healthy and nice wife to spend the rest of his life with.
But she was really unwilling to ept that too...
As she was sitting there with her head slightly lowered, Zhao Anan fell into silence.
Seeing her, her grandmother said calmly, If you are not saying it, I take the answer to be no. I will visit the Mu Family tomorrow and apologize to Mu Wensheng for you holding Mu Qing hanging for more than a decade. I will tell Mu Qing that he will never be allowed to have any connection with you or visit our family any more.
Zhao Anan lifted her head in shock.
She had never expected that her grandmother would be so determined this time.
So from today onwards, she was not allowed to see Mu Qing any more?
Actually, it should have been easy to part with Mu Qing. The only reason why she was not away from him was because she could not stop thinking about him!
Think about it. If you change your mind before my visit to the Mu Family tomorrow morning, you cane to tell me. If you do not show up, then I will take it that you dont want to marry him. ordingly, I will inform Mu Qing that he can get married elsewhere if he wants.
Having said the words, she stood up from the sofa and walked towards her own bedroom in slow steps.
She hoped that Zhao Anan woulde to her and cry out that she wanted to marry Mu Qing.
But even when she reached the bedroom, Zhao Anan had note to her.
The Old Lady got very annoyed by the time she reached the bedroom. Damn girl, stubborn and determined. Nothing worked on her!
What did she do to deserve such a girl? She resembled neither her nor her mother, but her father!
Zhao Anan did not show her face on the following day when the Old Lady of the Zhao Family was about to leave home for the Mu Family.
Chapter 544 - Poor Me
Chapter 544: Poor Me
It was not until the Old Lady left when Zhao Anan finally came out of the bedroom on the second floor and saw the empty living room, feeling upset.
The endless pain soon swallowed Zhao Anan, making her lose the strength to even stand on her feet. With hands on the wall, she slipped down on the floor, gradually.
From today on, she was not going to have anything to do with Mu Qing in her life ever again.
She was going to lose the man who spoiled her to the marrow.
Zhao Anan somehow felt a bit happy even when in pain.
At least right now when Mu Qing parted with her, he would not need to suffer from the pain of losing a wife. When she eventually died, Mu Qing would not get too upset.
His life would be steady and happy.
That was enough for her!
She would finally be able to face her disease without any strings attached.
When the Old Lady of the Zhao Family returned from the Mu Family, it was already dark. Apparently, she had had a long conversation with Mu Wensheng, and looked a bit cold. The conversation must have been stressful.
Zhao Anan felt both guilty and upset.
She had made her grandmother worry about her at this age and run errands for her sake. She should have lived a happy life at the Zhao Family, but today she must have been humiliated.
Zhao Anan walked ahead and took the Old Lady by the arms softly and showed a small smile on her face. She said in a nasal tone, Hey, Grandmother!
The Old Lady of the Zhao Family allowed her to take her hand as she walked inside and told her at the same time, The Mu Family have been informed. You and Mu Qing are no longer going to meet each other. Each of you will live your own life and marry whomever you like. Mu Wensheng has already picked several candidates for him and maybe tomorrow he is going to start going on blind dates. You will stay at home and are not allowed to go anywhere!
Zhao Anan felt extremely sad. She was trying hard to stop the tears from trickling down.
She was trying hard not to give up at this moment.
Why was she crying when he was going to go on blind dates? She should be happy for him.
But she just could not control her emotions.
She felt as if her heart had been taken out. She even cut her own lips when she was eating beefstake for dinner, just because she used the folk to cut the beefstake by ident.
When Zhao Zhao returned from work and saw her daughter distracted, she could not help but turn to her mother in a silent inquiry.
Her mother returned her look to assure her that she had the situation under control.
Zhao Zhao was assured, and refused to remind her own daughter that she had mistaken the fork for a knife. It was ok to feel a little pain
She should learn from what she had done.
After the dinner was finished, the Old Lady asked Zhao Zhao toe to her room and recounted the whole incident to her. After Zhao Zhao heard the story, she smiled and spoke highly of Shangguan Ning who was willing to help her good friend.
The mother and the daughter had decided to give Shangguan Ning a hand and sell out their child for her own benefit.
The following day Zhao Anan got up, and found that no one was around. So she asked her servants. Aunt Qian, where is my mother and my grandmother? Why are they not here?
Aunt Qian said with a smile, Oh, they are both out at the jewelry store. They said that they are going to get some jewelry to give Doctor Mus friend as a greeting present!
Aunt Qian was putting it in a discreet way but Zhao Anan understood what she was talking about.
So grandmother and mother were out to pick jewellery for the girl who was on a blind date with Mu Qing.
Zhao Anan got so furious that she almost passed out.
Were they even bothered about her feelings?
She did owe Mu Qing a lot, but they did not have to pay it back in this way. This was so disgusting.
What on earth were her grandmother and mother doing?
They were getting expensive jewelry just to please Mu Qings new girl and wish that Mu Qing could marry the girl as soon as possible.
What on earth was going on? Why were they so anxious to help Mu Qing with the blind date? Were they part of her family or his?
After hearing what Aunt Qian said, Zhao Anan returned to her bed room without breakfast, but half an hourter, she got so hungry that her stomach grumbled.
Only now did she remember that she had forgotten to eat breakfast because she was so busy getting upset.
She returned to the dining room angrily, sat down, took a fierce bite of the bread as if it were her enemy.
Aunt Qian chuckled on the sly seeing what she was doing. Then she called the Old Lady of the Zhao Family to report the situation at home.
After Zhao Anan finished eating, she started to drink the milk.
So the masters were not at home and she could be the king! She could go out to have fun now.
Zhao Anan was never the type that could be restrained at home for long. She was attracted by the temptation of the outside world.
She stuffed some food into her mouth. Without changing her clothes, she put on the sneakers and took off.
As she ran out of the gate, sheughed wildly that she had managed to escape the cage but suddenly realized that she had no money with her.
She had a wallet but it was empty with not a single cent inside, because her mother had taken away her pocket money to stop her from running away.
But it was okay. She always had a way to get money. It was great when no bodyguards were with her.
She took a taxi and rushed directly to Landscape Compound.
When she reached there, Shangguan Ning was already waiting for her outside with the stroller, followed by the nanny, Lee Duo, Knife Lee, looking like thedy from a noble family.
Seeing Zhao Anan peer out from the taxi, Shangguan Ning red at her and paid her fares.
Zhao Anan had called Shangguan Ning when she was in the car and asked her to do so.
As Zhao Anan got off the taxi, she threw herself at Shangguan Ning and kissed her on the cheek. My beauty is the best. You have saved me.
Shangguan Ning wiped off the saliva from her face and sized up. She said, What made grandmother release you? Or did you escape again?
Zhao Anan brushed off her unkempt short hair, and took Jing Rui out of the stroller instead of answering Shangguan Nings question.
Chapter 545 - A Bad Friend
Chapter 545: A Bad Friend
Jing Rui giggled because of her tickling and kisses.
Zhao Anan stared at him in astonishment. Oh my god, my nephewughs so cutely. He knows what tickling means. He has grown so fast. I havent seen him for one week and he has grown heavier and has more hair from before.
Shangguan Ning also showed a gentle expression as she looked at her son. She said with a bright smile, Children grow fast. He is almost 100 days old and is bing more aware of his surroundings.
Every time Zhao Anan had Jing Rui in her arms, she would find it difficult to put him down. He was simply adorable. She did not have a strong affinity towards children until she met Jing Rui.
Maybe her perspective towards children had changed, or maybe because she was Jing Ruis aunt.
After she teased Jing Rui for a short while, she put him back to the stroller and let him y on his own.
Ning, lend me some money! Zhao Anan felt a bit embarrassed to ask for a loan.
But there was no other way out.
Unexpectedly, however, Shangguan Ning, who was normally nice and easygoing, rejected her proposal immediately, What are you nning to do? I do not have any money!
Zhao Anan was dumbfounded. It took her a long while before she said with dissatisfaction, Look at yourself! I am not a thief. I am just borrowing some money from you, dont be stingy. I will give back double the amount.
Shangguan Ning seemed to be moved, so she said hesitantly, How... much do you need?
In a nonchnt way, Zhao Anan said, 100,000 to start with!
Shangguan Nings eyes widened as she said with an irritated tone, What do you need this much money for? Are you nning to run away?! No, I do not have any money. You are not getting a single penny from me!
Zhao Anan rolled her eyes and said in an exaggerating tone, Running away? No way. My grandmother and mother will beat me to death. Dont worry, I will never dare to run away ever again. Give me the money!
Shangguan Ning was not going to give Zhao Anan that much money. She was afraid that Zhao Anan would buy a ne ticket and fly to somewhere unknown so that no one was able to find her.
She took out one note from her pocket and gave it to Zhao Anan. Here is the money. I have got 10 yuan here.
Zhao Anan lost her mind. She stared at the ten-yuan bill and shouted. Shangguan Ning, are you giving alms to a beggar? Ten yuan is not even enough for a single taxi ride.
You can take the bus!
I...
Zhao Anan turned speechless!
What a bad friend! She was way too stingy. She only gave her ten yuan when she asked for a loan. How shameless of her.
Ten yuan is enough for ten bus rides, enough for you to travel around A City. But if you think of going somewhere else, then... you wont be able to do it.
Zhao Anan was speechless.
She really regretted having run away. She would never do it again. She had been imprisoned for half a year. Never again did she want to be some prisoner who was tortured to death even before the cancer broke out again.
Eyeing the ten yuan note, Zhao Anan could not utter even a single word. Why was this so tough?
She had to take one step back.
What about 10,000 yuan? That is the lowest I can ask for.
I only have ten yuan!
Shangguan Ning, dont be so ungrateful. I am your matchmaker, 5,000, please, no less than that alright?
Ten yuan is the only bill I can give to you!
Sister-inw, please, give me 1,000 alright?
No, 1,000 is enough to buy a discounted ne ticket. What if you fly away? Then all the me would be on me.
Zhao Anan waspletely defeated. This girl was so stingy that she did not even agree to 1,000 yuan. Her husband had properties worth more than 100 billion yuan!
Honestly, cant you give me some more? Ten yuan is not even enough for one bowl of noodles.
Shangguan Ning hesitated for a second, grabbed one piece of red note from the pocket and passed it to her slowly, Does this one work? One taxi ride and one bowl of noodles, maybe some sweets as well.
Zhao Anan took the 110 yuan with tears in her eyes. She swore that she was definitely going to make tons of money and throw them all on Shangguan Nings face.
Zhao Anan took off immediately after that.
In order to save money, thisdy of the Zhao Family rode the bus for the first time.
And it turned out to be a terrible experience for her.
She did not have any change.
But she had to pay when she got on the bus, because the driver was sizing her up with a weird look.
He seemed to be ming her for being stingy not to toss the ten yuan inside C it was just nine yuan more. If she tossed it into the box, she would make a contribution to the national traffic department.
Zhao Anan flushed and turned pale again until she finally put the ten yuan into the box.
A grey-haired old grandma sitting on the special seats reminded Zhao Anan out of kindness. Girl, do remember to bring change next time you take the bus. The grandma must have been used to saving money.
Oh... well... I... okay! Zhao Anan was too embarrassed to utter any words.
Honestly, she was thedy of the Zhao Family, the heir of Zhaos Jewelry. What was she doing with these small amounts when one of her tops cost more than 10,000 yuan?
This was so humiliating!
But she truly was out of money right now.
The grandma thought that she was concerned about the nine extra yuan she spent, so she gave her a tip. It is fine, you can stand at the door and when the other passengers are getting on the bus, you can ask them to give you the money, nine of them!
Aha?
Zhao Anan turned to the driver and asked hopefully, Uncle, will this work?
Uncle nodded with hesitation, Alright, do it in this way if you want!
Ignoring how the others looked at her, she guarded at the door, acting as the conductor.
Soon, Zhao Anan gathered her nine yuan, and was about to sit down when a voice said, Wee to Bus 222, the next stop is No.2 High School of A City, please be prepared to get off!
Zhao Anan got confused C which stop was she getting off?
She got confused for a minute and turned to the driver. Uncle, which stop should I get off if I want to go to Zhaos Jewelry?
Chapter 546 - Stalking
Chapter 546: Stalking
The driver threw a look at Zhao Anan, thinking that it was ridiculous of her to want to visit the most luxurious jewellery store in A City when she cared so much about the small change.
But that was what the passenger wanted, so he told her despite his personal feelings. This bus doesnt go there directly, you have to get off at the next stop and change to Bus 17. Then get off at the International City stop.
What? Change to another bus?
How troublesome! She had thought that this bus would take her there directly.
Sigh, she should have taken the taxi, fast and convenient.
Zhao Anan got off at the bus stop, took Bus 17 as what the driver told her and arrived at the jewellery store finally.
Zhao Anan barely visited the store. For one thing, she had no interest in jewellery, and for another, she was not needed to run the business. So no one at the store recognized her as the bossdy.
Zhao Zhao and the Old Lady of the Zhao Family were here not only to pick the jewelry, but to talk with the manager and the store staff, finding about the daily situation of operation at the store.
Zhao Zhao came to the store every week, but the Old Lady of the Zhao Family did not. Yet everyone knew what she looked like.
When the two biggest owners of the store were on a visit, the entire staff were full of energy and talking to them with a bright smile.
Zhao Anan did not dare to stay too close to them, fearing that she might be discovered.
So she went into a cafe opposite the store, ordered a cup of coffee and sat down by the window.
It took them almost half an hour to get the jewelry ready, and thedies climbed onto the Rolls-Royce that took them away.
Zhao Anan hurried out of the cafe, and stopped a taxi. She hurried into the car and said to the driver, Please, follow that Rolls-Royce!
The driver said happily, Dont worry, I will!
Sometimeter, the Rolls-Royce stopped at a western restaurant. The Old Lady and Zhao Zhao got out of the car and entered the restaurant.
Zhao Anan also went out of the taxi and followed them.
Zhao Anan had been to this restaurant many times. Before her own was opened, she had done a lot of inspection so as to learn the environmental instation and services. Since it was the best western restaurant in A City, many people from the rich families liked to have a meal here.
Zhao Anan had never expected that Mu Qing would have chosen such a good ce for the blind date. One meal here could cost one-month sry of an ordinary white cor worker!
Zhao Anan felt a bit sour inside her heart. Even she had not had a date with Mu Qing in such a luxurious and elegant ce. Their meetings either happened at home or at the hospital, not at all romantic.
Although she had been the major reason for that situation, she was still feeling furious that Mu Qing and another girl were on a date at such a romantic ce.
When she met Mu Qingter, she was definitely going to hit him hard.
He broke up with her yesterday and could not wait to go on a blind date, already.
What Zhao Anan could not have known was that Mu Qing was forced to go on a blind date today by his grandpa. She felt broken hearted and almost burst into tears with all kinds of emotions mixed up inside her heart.
She had been with Mu Qing since she was 17, and had liked him for more than 11 years. Their love had seeped into her bones.
When Mu Qing used to spoil her rotten, Zhao Anan did not feel a thing. She hadnt cared much about his behavior. Nor did she feel that their love was that deep or rare.
She believed that it was natural that Mu Qing would treat her nicely, and did not cherish it that much.
She always made a fuss with Mu Qing and behaved unruly. She never knew how to take care of Mu Qing who did not seem to need her care either, because it had been he who took care of her all the time.
But now she was told by the Old Lady that Mu Qing was gone already.
It was not until this moment did Zhao Anan realize how much of a loss it was and how terrible she felt.
She had thought that she would be tolerant and generous enough to ept Mu Qings new girlfriend or even wife. But she was actually so narrow-minded that she even ran to the ce where Mu Qing was out for the date.
Would she go and crash the wedding when Mu Qing got married?
With hands clenched in a fist, Zhao Anan pressed down her fury and went to the counter with no expressions on her face.
The first floor of the restaurant was for ordering and paying as well as for food preparation, whilst the second floor was the open lobby and the third was full of elegant rooms.
Since Zhao Anan used to be a regr here, the waitresses recognized her immediately. She said to her in a ttering tone, Miss Zhao, here you are! Long time no see. You are getting prettier. What would you like to eat?
The waitress was a smooth liar. How could she look pretty in such a state?
Her hair was unkempt, her clothes were baggy. Her face looked pale and she knew that she looked like a mess.
She was not in a mood to speak with the waitress. But she could not curse her after thepliment.
She asked in a quiet tone. The two women who just came in, did they order an elegant room or an open seat?
Zhao Anan was not here for food. After hearing about Mu Qings blind date with another woman, she was not in a mood for any food.
Also, she only had the rge amount of 90 yuan, which was not even enough for a cup of drink, let alone a te of beefsteak in here.
She needed to know which floor Mu Qing was on. She would not be able to take a peak if they ended up being in the elegant room.
The waitress hesitated for a long while before telling Zhao Anan about the twodies seats.
They were new clients whilst thisdy in front of her was a white gold VIP customer, one who was not to be offended. What was more, it did not matter even if their seats were revealed.
They are on the open seats, but did not order anything. They are here to meet someone and soon they will leave.
Zhao Anan nodded. Yes, they were here to meet someone, and that someone must be Mu Qing. They were going to give him the jewelry so that he could gift it to someone.
Zhao Anan got so furious that she wanted to spit blood. She felt that her grandmother and her own mother were so mean to her.
Even though she had troubled Mu Qing in many ways, they did not have to treat him so nicely.
This whole thing was very irritating!
Chapter 547 - Blind Date
Chapter 547: Blind Date
Zhao Anan was still finding it odd. She always had the feeling her mother and grandmother would not get involved in this matter since both of them favored their own family members over outsiders. They would never turn to support Mu Qing, instead!
But facts spoke louder than beliefs. Although Zhao Anan felt that she seemed to have missed something, her brain did not have any justification for it.
She might be a good fighter, but she was a terrible strategist.
Alright, I am going up to meet someone too. Get me a cup of Caff Americano and I will order foodter.
The waitress answered her request, happily.
Zhao Anan went upstairs with a restless heart.
She was not going to order. She just wanted to confuse the waitress. Caff Americano was served free at this restaurant, and that was why Zhao Anan ordered a cup. Otherwise she would draw unnecessary attention if she sat in there without doing anything.
Zhao Anan felt humiliated when she had to pretend as if she had a great deal of money. She was ady who was used to spending money without even blinking.
She swore once again that she was going to earn a great deal of money on her own.
But her restaurant was under her grandmothers charge, so she didnt earn even a single penny from there.
Otherwise she would not have ended up drinking free coffee here.
Zhao Anan cursed under her breath at Shangguan Ning. What a stingy woman to have only given her 110 yuan, making her take a bus and drink a free cup of coffee! She was definitely going to take revengeter.
Had she known that whatever happening today was actually Shangguan Nings n, she would probably get furious enough to spit out blood and chop Shangguan Ning into pieces.
Zhao Anan went upstairs and nced around discreetly. There she saw her grandmother and Zhao Zhao, together with Mu Qing whom she had not seen for days, sitting by the window.
He was dressed in a blue short sleeved shirt and a pair of coffee colored pants. He was sitting on the white leather sofa of the restaurant and looked very handsome.
He was sporting a clean, short hair style. His skin was white and an elegant air surrounded him. When he smiled, his sunny personality drew others attention.
Zhao Anan had noticed that there were several girls at the restaurant who were sizing up Mu Qing on the sly!
She found herself acting weird today.
She did not normally have any feelings when other women nced at Mu Qing, because she always believed that Mu Qing would not look at any other women except for herself.
Mu Qing himself had admitted that there were only two kinds of women in his life C Zhao Anan was one and remaining women belonged to the other. That was why she never got jealous of any other women. She was confident enough that no matter how others tried to seduce Mu Qing, he would never be nice to them.
But today, she got extremely upset.
Zhao Anan felt so jealous that the coffee she was drinking, tasted like vinegar!
When the treasure was in her possession, she had regarded it as a rock to be tossed off whenever she wanted. But now when she lost the rock, she realised that it had been the biggest treasure of her life!
What was Zhao Anan doing?
She pushed Mu Qing away and chose to give him up, but now she was here, spying on his blind date!
Zhao Anan hated herself for what she was doing at the moment C how could she badger someone after a breakup?
Mu Qing had already noticed her the moment she entered the restaurant, but was pretending to be unaware.
What a silly girl! She was terrible at stalking. What was she thinking to have found such a close seat to him that he could see her clearly?
Mu Qing had spent the entire night in Lus blood transfusion and hadnt slept even a wink before he was forced by Shangguan Ning toe to this ce.
She went to the hospital with Jing Rui early in the morning, and the moment he came out of the operation room, she forced him to take shower and change, instead of visiting Lu who had just finished with the procedure. After she was satisfied with his looks, she went to visit Lu before receiving the call from Zhao Anan. Thats when he headed immediately to Landscape Compound.
When Zhao Anan arrived at the gate of Landscape Compound, Shangguan Ning had just arrived as well. But she pretended as if she hade out of the house to greet Zhao Anan.
Luckily, Zhao Anan was too careless to figure anything out.
Zhao Zhao and the Old Lady of the Zhao Family were also putting on a show ording to what Shangguan Ning had instructed them.
The Old Lady had not visited the Mu Family. Instead, she went to Shangguan Nings home and yed with her great grandson for the entire day. She was so pleased that she not only gave Shangguan Ning a pair of expensive jade bracelets but also gave Jing Rui arge number of valuable things, such as the long-life gold keys, gold bells, gold bracelets, gold beans and gold bars. Seeing all that, people might have thought that the Old Lady had gone and robbed the gold storage of a bank!
Shangguan Ning had wondered about why Knife Lee was asked to carry the cases into the room, and had struggled in carrying them. It was not until the glittering gold was shown in front of her did she understand what had happened!
The heavy gold made it difficult for the strong, Knife Lee to carry them all at once.
Shangguan Ning had wanted to turn the presents down, but the Old Ladys not for you, but my great-grandson stopped her from saying anything more.
When the Old Lady returned home, she had tried hard to adjust her expression so that her face would look dark and furious.
It had also been the Old Ladys idea to allow Zhao Anan to run out of home. No one was running after her when she went out of the house, and she was silly enough to assume that she had tricked them all.
At this moment, not only Mu Qing but both thedies saw her too. The two women exchanged a smiling look.
They continued with the charade. After they gave the jewelry to Mu Qing and exchanged a few words with him, they left.
Since Zhao Anan was here, the show could begin now!
Five minutester, a very beautiful girl wearing a pair of silver high-heel passed by Zhao Anan in an elegant manner.
Chapter 548 - Smoking-Hot!
Chapter 548: Smoking-Hot!
The beautiful girl was wearing a rose colored organza Chanel dress, exposing her shoulders and half of her breasts. The dress barely covered her bulging butt, and her long slender legs were exposed.
She looked charming. Seeing her, people wanted to sweep her into their arms.
She was wearing exquisite makeup and smelled heavenly. Her long hair fell over her shoulders like a waterfall. Her skin was jade-like, and her oval face hadrge sparkling eyes. Her lips were perfectly-shaped and plump, making people want to take a bite of them.
Her deep cleavage meant that she had a pair ofrge-sized breasts, and the way she was dressed made her look very attractive.
She walked slowly and made her the centre of everyones attention.
The women got jealous and the men stopped eating and their forks and knives fell onto the ground. Everyones eyes were on this striking woman who had juste into the restaurant.
Mu Qing was also dumbfounded.
He had seen many beautiful girls, campus beauties, models, stars, and he had even seen them naked due to various treatments.
He had a strong resisting ability against women, but even he was fascinated by this beautiful girl.
Although Mu Qing was affected, he did not show it in his face. He just looked at her, expressionlessly.
But Zhao Anan did not think so.
She could see that Mu Qing had been staring at this woman without blinking since the moment she showed up.
Zhao Anan got so furious that she almost bit off her own teeth.
Why hadnt she known that Mu Qing could be tempted as well?!
He was drooling at her long legs.
What was so special about this woman anyway? Her skin was whiter than hers, breasts bigger than hers and legs longer than hers, that was all, right?!
Zhao Anan looked at her creased spiderman PJ and then threw a look at that womans sexy dress. Suddenly, she felt like giving up.
She did not understand what about her had attracted Mu Qing.
She was capricious and messy, and did not possess an air of femininity! But Mu Qing had spent 11 years courting her.
He tolerated her, forgave her and spoiled her. He could give up everything just for her. If it had not been for her sake, he would not have lost the position as the director of the hospital!
Did she deserve all of his attention and love?
Look at the girl that the Mu Family had found for him. She turned out to be such a striking woman. The girl must also be healthy enough to give birth to babies for Mu Qing.
Zhao Anan found that she probably would hang herself if that truly happened!
The beautiful girl walked forward slowly. Mu Qing was still staring at her when she smiled at him and sat down opposite to him. He was suddenly receiving a jealous look from all the other men in there.
Mu Qing gasped. Could she be...
Hi, are you Mr. Mu Qing?
Her voice sounded like pearls dropping upon a te, tickling peoples hearts.
Mu Qing stuttered. Oh well... I am... yes I am Mu Qing!
This woman was his blind date?
Oh my god!
Where did Shangguan Ning find such a beautiful woman? Was she trying to make himmit a crime?!
The beautiful woman put her expensive white Herms aside, stretched out her hand towards Mu Qing and showed a charming smile. Hello, Mu Qing, my name is Mi Xiaoxiao. Grandpa Mu asked me to meet you here. Happy blind date!
She was elegant and showed no sign of shyness. She was not pretentious even if she was on a blind date.
Mu Qing threw a look at the hand and hesitated. Then he took hold of it and said, Hi, happy blind date!
Mi Xiaoxiaos hand was tender, and smooth, pretty like a piece of artwork, making people want to hold and toy with it for a moment.
But Mu Qing broke away from the grasp quickly.
Mi Xiaoxiao looked at him and agreed with what Shangguan Ning had told her C this man had eyes for no other women, no matter how beautifully she was dressed. She did not need to worry that she would be badgered by him.
Mu Qing was indeed very handsome in a way that attracted women. He was not overly distant or overly ttering.
Mi Xiaoxiao was very d to be on a blind date with a handsome doctor.
She looked at Mu Qing and realized that even if he was staring at her, he had no other desire in his eyes other than simple appreciation. That pleased Mi Xiaoxiao even more.
What was wrong with Zhao Anan for not wanting to marry Mu Qing? He was such an excellent man who would be easily taken away if she did not grab the chance.
Zhao Anan was watching Mu Qing and that charming woman holding hands. She shivered with anger and crushed the straw in her mouth.
Due to the soft music in the background, Zhao Anan failed to catch what they were saying. All she could see was that they were holding hands, smiling at each other as if they were very pleased to be there.
She had not gotten furious about Mu Qing holding any other womens hands earlier. What was happening to her today?
Mu Qing had nothing to do with her any more. She should not care if he was holding anyone elses hand.
She must calm herself down. She must not get angry!
Zhao Anan was trying hard to appease her irritated heart in case she got impulsive and rushed forward to hit that woman.
She was trying to tell herself to leave this ce. They were on a blind date and how humiliating it would be if the ex-girl was caught peeking at them right now!
Chapter 549 - You Annoying Little Charming Bitch!
Chapter 549: You Annoying Little Charming Bitch!
But her feet were not under the control of her head. She stayed seated firmly there rather than leave.
She was so worked up by the tableau in front of her that she shed tears. But even if that was the case, she still did not want to leave.
Zhao Anan watched the waitress giving them the menu and heard Mu Qing asking the beautiful girl gently what she would like to eat.
Thedy seemed to read the menu for a long while before giving it back to Mu Qing, asking him to order something nice for her, instead.
Zhao Anan got so sour inside her heart. She thought that the girl must have done that on purpose. She was such a tricky woman. If Mu Qing fell for her, he must be blind!
Zhao Anan was furious.
Mu Qing used to be nice only to her, but now he was going to be nice to someone else. She felt that her heart was bleeding badly.
Zhao Anan felt that she was here asking for trouble for herself!
The waitress finally left, and Zhao Anan leaned back on the sofa, feebly. She was busy biting the straw and her look was hollow with tears trickling down from her eyes.
Mu Qing might have had his eyes upon Mi Xiaoxiao, but he kept a track of Zhao Anans movements from the corner of his eye. When he saw her biting the straw and the tears in her bloodshot eyes, he couldnt hold back.
He was about to get up when Mi Xiaoxiao held his hand.
Mi Xiaoxiao was a smart woman. She had already noticed that Mu Qing was ncing at the girl who was seated not far away from them.
Mi Xiaoxiao had pretended to look around and realized that the girl must be Zhao Anan whom Shangguan Ning talked about.
Before she came to this ce, Shangguan Ning kept telling her that she had to put on an authentic show and she must stop Mu Qing in case he ruined it because of his concern for Zhao Anan.
Sure enough, it had only been ten minutes before Mu Qing could not stand it any more.
Mi Xiaoxiao was slightly surprised by how much Mu Qing cared about Zhao Anan, that he did not want her to suffer even a bit.
She had never seen such an excellent man who would care about his girl so deeply.
She had been with all kinds of men, but none of them were as faithful and devoted as Mu Qing!
An evil look shed in Mi Xiaoxiaos eyes. She wondered if she should get Mu Qing to be her own? But Shangguan Ning might cut her into half after that.
Mu Qing frowned slightly and threw a look at Mi Xiaoxiao.
Mi Xiaoxiao showed a perfect smile and said with a sweet voice, Mr. Mu, am I not pretty enough for you to concentrate upon? Please tell me what I have done wrong so that I wont humiliate myself in public.
Mu Qing stared at her and suddenly realized that this woman was not only perfect in appearance, but also extremely observant, and intelligent.
She was reminding him not to let Zhao Anan notice his weird behavior.
Mu Qing was sure that Mi Xiaoxiao did not know Zhao Anan personally, but she was able to recognize Zhao Anan within such a short time. She must be very clever and possess good diplomatic skills.
He smiled helplessly. Shangguan Ning had not trusted him so she found such a beautifuldy to be his blind date, not only good-looking, but intelligent as well.
After Mi Xiaoxiao reminded him, Mu Qing tried hard to suppress the impulsive feeling inside his heart and stopped looking at her.
Shangguan Ning had made so much effort along with the Old Lady, Zhao Zhao and thisdy to carry out the n, so he must not ruin it.
If this n could make Zhao Anan realize what she had been running away from, then he could bear letting Zhao Anan suffer a bit longer!
Mi Xiaoxiao did not release Mu Qings hand, but flipped it with a smile as she said in a soft voice, I think you are a nice man. Here is my number.
She took out an eyeliner from her purse, opened the lid and started to scribble on his hand.
When she finished writing, Mu Qing withdrew his hand and took a look at it, only to find that there was no number on it, but a line with disdainful words, You are such a terrible actor. You wont be able to get the girl in this way!
Mu Qing suddenlyughed, and was instantly relieved.
Zhao Anan was so tortured that she felt her brain was going to crack.
It was their first meeting, and they were already acting so intimate with each other. How shameless were they? How terrible an influence were they casting on the society!
She craned her neck, eager to find out what this foxydy had written on Mu Qings hand making Mu Qingugh so happily!
He did not even smile this brightly at her.
After Zhao Anan finished chewing the straw, she picked up the spoon that was used to stir the coffee and started to bite it instead.
The spoon was made of stainless steel and her biting led to a loud cracking sound. Even her teeth hurt, now.
Zhao Anan noticed that Mu Qing seemed to have thrown a look towards her, so she instantly bent over the table, hiding her face.
Mu Qing withdrew his look and started to pay attention to Mi Xiaoxiao.
He took out the jewelry which the Old Lady had given him and gave it to Mi Xiaoxiao with a smile on his face. Here is your greeting present. Hope you like it!
Shangguan Ning had already promised to her that whatever present Mu Qing gave to her would be hers as a payment for her performance.
She untied the beautiful knot on the box, and found a dazzling ruby bracelet.
Mi Xiaoxiao had been born in a rich family and was very sensitive towards expensive stuff.
She was aware that the bracelet must cost a great deal of money and also understood that Zhao Anans mother had offered the present. So she could not help but sigh inside her heart C Zhao Anan was indeed a lucky person when so many people were making a n for her happiness.
Mi Xiaoxiao threw a look at Zhao Anan who was chewing on the spoon and could not help butugh. This girl was so careless that she didnt even choose a ce far away from them just to eavesdrop their conversation.
She was too conspicuous!
Also, what was Zhao Anan doing at the moment? She should havee up and hit her when she saw her interacting so closely with Mu Qing!
Chapter 550 - Devoted Performance
Chapter 550: Devoted Performance
Shangguan Ning had warned her that Zhao Anan was impulsive and liked picking on fights and that she should not get mad at her because they were all good friends.
When Mi Xiaoxiao heard that it was a risky business, she did not want to do it. What if she was sshed with sulphuric acid on her face?
But Shangguan Ning begged her repeatedly and guaranteed that she would not be bodily harmed so she had finally agreed toe.
Seeing Zhao Anan get so angry but still noting to im her man, Mi Xiaoxiao decided to add fuel to the me.
Mumu, you are so sweet to have given me such a precious piece of jewelry. I am so grateful!
Her voice sounded so fake and sweet that even Mi Xiaoxiao found it creepy.
Mu Qing was also startled by Mi Xiaoxiaos Mumu and she called out so loudly just in case Zhao Anan could not hear them.
Zhao Anan was only one table apart from them, separated by the aisle. If they whispered, the music would cover their voice, but if they talked loudly, she could hear the words clearly.
Zhao Anan wanted to push the table away after she heard what they were talking about.
What was going on here?
What were her mother and grandmother doing this? Were they upset that she was dying at a slow speed and wanted her to expire right on the spot, instead?
She had lost her man and her mans new lover received jewelry from her own family. She was suffering too much.
However, what made Zhao Anan even more miserable was what followed.
Mi Xiaoxiaos sweet voice echoed in the restaurant. But I do not have any presents for you!
Mu Qing said coaxingly, It is okay, such a beautiful woman deserves a nice bracelet. Your presence today is the best present that I could have received!
When Zhao Anan heard these words, she got so annoyed that she almost dropped dead. Her heart would definitely break if this continued.
Mi Xiaoxiao looked happy, but inside her heart, she understood that Mu Qing was referring to Zhao Anan rather than her when he was speaking.
She was also quite pissed now, not at Mu Qing but at Zhao Anan.
How could this girl still be firmly seated on the chair? Didnt Shangguan Ning say that she was impulsive? What was she doing there getting worked up and ying with a spoon? Wasnt she supposed to flip the table instead?
Come and get your man!
Mi Xiaoxiao waited for a second and saw that Zhao Anan still hadnt moved. She mumbled inside her heart, Okay, if you dont do anything now, I will have to sacrifice myself for the cause.
She looked up at Mu Qing and suddenly started to sound a bit shy. Mumu, I have made a decision. I am going to give you a present. I hope you will like it!
Having said the words, she stood up and kissed Mu Qing on the cheek leaning across the table.
Mu Qings eyes widened and froze.
He had never expected that Mi Xiaoxiao would go this far!
This girl was a bit too devoted. Was she an actress from the Star Media of Jingsheng Enterprise?
He subconsciously turned towards Zhao Anan, thinking that she would get mad and take it for real. But Mi Xiaoxiao cupped his face in her hands and twisted it towards herself, instead.
Mi Xiaoxiao had her face against his and said in a low voice, I have sacrificed so much! Stop looking so wronged after you took advantage of me. I may kiss you some more times so that your girl runs away!
Mu Qing did not think that he had taken advantage of this girl, but he did not argue back. The girl had acted on her own by sacrificing herself.
Zhao Anan was stupefied.
Were all women so open these days that they kissed on the first meeting itself?
Why didnt Mu Qing dodge? Did he enjoy being kissed by the woman?
Zhao Anan felt so confused inside her heart. She was furious and desperate.
Mu Qing liked her, then why was he being nice to other girls and behaving so intimately with them?
She wanted to rush over to confront Mu Qing and to drive away the foxydy sitting opposite him.
But she ended up doing nothing.
What position did she have to confront Mu Qing?
It had been she who dumped him!
Hence, she should allow him to meet other women.
What was more, this woman seemed wless, and a good match to Mu Qing. They would have a very happy life in the future.
Wasnt that what she had always wanted for Mu Qing to have? If this woman truly fitted Mu Qing and could make him happy, she should give them her blessings.
Her life ahead was unknown and she was not sure when the cancer would return and take her away.
Judging from the past, it was very likely that her cancer woulde back. Most of the cancer survivors could not be curedpletely and it always returned.
It had happened to her once, and the chance of it happening again was even higher.
Also, she was infertile.
When she and Mu Qing were dating earlier, they never used any preventive measure, because Mu Qing had wanted her to get pregnant so that she would never leave him again.
That was what Zhao Anan had thought as well.
But she still did not get pregnant after numerous times of being together.
Mu Qing had been well cultivated since he was young, so it could not have been him.
It was she who had the issue.
Zhao Anan had not been aware of the joy a child brings, when she was a bit younger. She even believed that children would be a burden. But now she realized that a family was notplete unless a child was in it.
She could not imagine what their future would be like if they got married and Mu Qing was never able to be a father.
Zhao Anan raised her head to wipe her tears, and then turned to look at the intimate couple, feeling less irritated.
Her heart was still aching, but she had calmed herself down.
Mi Xiaoxiao returned to her seat and found that Zhao Anan was still seated there stupidly as if her soul had drifted away. Mi Xiaoxiao could not help but roll her eyes!
Mi Xiaoxiao keptining inside her own heart C did this girl really like Mu Qing as Shangguan Ning had said? If she had been in her position, she would havee and picked on a fight by now.
What a tough task had she taken over today? Shangguan Ning had set up a trap for her!
Chapter 551 - To Cherish
Chapter 551: To Cherish
It was definitely true that a new mother could be dumb for at least three years. What made Shangguan Ning think of such a terrible idea? If she had known that Shangguan Nings n was not strong enough, she would not havee to make an enemy for herself. Maybe Zhao Anan was cursing her inside her heart at this moment.
Well, since she was here already, she would give her best till the end.
She must make sure that shepletes all the key points Shangguan Ning had set.
Mumu, I feel so cold, can I borrow your coat?
Mi Xiaoxiao pointed at the white coat hanging on the handrails of the sofa.
Mu Qing finally understood why Shangguan Ning had forced him to put on the coat!
He had thought that the temperature in June was usually high and it was weird that she had forced him to put on a coat. The air-conditioner at the restaurant was on. It was normal that Mi Xiaoxiao felt a bit cold with such little clothes on her.
If Zhao Anan had been sitting opposite him, Mu Qing would definitely have draped it on her without her asking him for it. He would have been worried about her getting a cold.
But he did not care whether Mi Xiaoxiao would get cold or not.
But, since Mi Xiaoxiao asked him for it, Mu Qing would have to give her the coat. He knew that Mi Xiaoxiao must be Shangguan Nings friend who was doing them a favor. So he had to follow her request, after all.
Mu Qing passed the coat to her with a smile. Put it on. Be sure to wear more next time you are out. The temperature gap is huge between outdoors and indoors, and you may catch a cold.
Mi Xiaoxiao finally could not stand it any more. Ignoring her image as ady, she red at him, suggesting that he shoulde and put it on for her, instead!
Mu Qing smiled but said nothing.
He did not want to stimte Zhao Anan any more. He was concerned by Zhao Anans increasing sadness.
But even if Mu Qing did not offer the coat, Zhao Anan had already heard her heart break when his coat was on Mi Xiaoxiaos body.
Mu Qings clothes used to warm her but now they were on another womans shoulders. Zhao Anan had never expected that it would be such a bitter feeling when she saw this scene.
Soon the beefsteak was served and Mi Xiaoxiao and Mu Qing talked as they ate the tender beefsteak.
The bright sunshine pierced in through the clear window and shone upon the two people seated at the table by the window. The man looked handsome whilst the woman was charming and pretty. They looked like straight out of a water-ink painting.
Zhao Anan felt that everything around her was fading away.
She thought back to her time with Mu Qing and realized that she did not seem to have had such a lovely meal with Mu Qing ever.
When Mu Qing was with her, he used to spoil her so that she could do whatever she wanted without any restriction. She had never gone on a date with him except on the day when she was 17 years old, when they just established their rtionship and went for a movie. On that movie date, she fell asleep during the show.
In the years that followed, she dodged Mu Qing with all methods she coulde up with and always kept silent when they were having a meal. She was always in a sour mood, for some reason or another.
Suddenly, Zhao Anan realized something.
She had not known how to cherish what was good for her. She liked Mu Qing a great deal, yet she had been so selfish that she had never considered Mu Qings feelings and kept running away from reality!
She had a very bad temper as ady from a rich family who had been spoiled by her parents and then by Mu Qing.
She was both lucky and unlucky.
There was someone who loved her unconditionally and she had been walking all over his love all this time. She was someone who did not know much about love. She did not even know what Mu Qing liked and disliked. Every time they were eating together, she would always leave what she did not like to Mu Qing, who would tell her that whatever she liked was all what he liked.
It was not until today did she get to know that Mu Qing did not like ketchup.
Because she heard thedy saying with a smile a minute ago, You dont like ketchup? Me neither!
But when they were eating pasta, she would put a lot of ketchup and then get full when she finished half of the bowl. Mu Qing, without hesitation, would eat up the rest.
And today, there was not a single bit of ketchup in the pasta he ordered!
Zhao Anan had a bitter smile on her face.
If she had not broken up with Mu Qing, she might never have understood how much Mu Qing loved her and what all he had done for her out of love.
Shangguan Ning kept telling her that she could not see the right from wrong and was losing the biggest happiness that she had been given. She had not taken it seriously, but now she realized that what Shangguan Ning said was true!
Zhao Anan could not stand it any more, because she was worried that she would lose control and rush to Mu Qing, ordering him not to be together with that woman and throw herself into his arms.
Zhao Anan got up and staggered towards the staircase.
Seeing Zhao Anan leave, Mi Xiaoxiao and Mu Qing both got startled.
This was a bit different from what Shangguan Ning had nned.
Mi Xiaoxiao was the deputy director of the public rtions department of Jingsheng Enterprise and experienced several serious situations. She was a smart person and skilled at getting away from tricky scenarios, but she was at a loss at the moment.
The leading female character had retreated and she, as the supporting lead, could not turn the tables.
Seeing Zhao Anan disappearing, Mu Qing stood up and tried to run after her.
Mi Xiaoxiao did not care about his actions. She had finished her job and had no time or interest in stirring up that annoying couples business any further. What she was going to do was to enjoy the meal! She was in for a double treat, because Mu Qing had barely touched his portion.
It was not until Mu Qing disappeared did Mi Xiaoxiao realize that the meal had not been paid for yet!
Mi Xiaoxiao stood up and tried to call Mu Qing back when she found that he was already on the street, running after Zhao Anan.
How could he run so fast? People would assume that he was trying to avoid paying the bill.
She regretted it deeply C damn it! This meal cost half of her monthly sry.
She was definitely going to ask forpensation from Shangguan Ning. It had to be counted as a business affair!
Chapter 552 - Shangguan Nings Ability
Chapter 552: Shangguan Nings Ability
Mu Qing was running after Zhao Anan, hoping to tell her that what happened today was staged just to trick her and that she should not get mad.
But before he was able to catch up with her, a man jumped in the middle and stopped him.
Mu Qing wanted to curse at him when he looked up and said in surprise, Zheng Jing?! What are you doing here?
Zheng Jing said with raised eyebrows, I am here to save you from trouble, Brother!
Damn it, move away! Anan is mad and I am afraid that something would happen to her. I must catch up with her, otherwise it would be hard to exinter.
Seeing his furious look which was totally different from his usual behavior, Zheng Jing could not help but sympathize with him. So he had to spill the truth. Sorry, Bro, Sister-inw asked me to be here to make sure that you dont meet Zhao Anan today. But dont worry, I will make sure that she reaches home safely. I would not let anything happen to her.
Sister-inw? Shangguan Ning?! Mu Qing got even more surprised. How did she know that I woulde out and run after Zhao Anan? No, did she know that Zhao Anan would leave the restaurant?!
I am not sure about it, but I am following her order, in case Master Jing breaks my leg because I disobeyed her!
As a matter of fact, Zheng Jing showed up today not because Shangguan Ning had persuaded him to, but because Zheng Lun did. Shangguan Ning told Zheng Lun about the n and then asked Zheng Lun to persuade Zheng Jing to help.
Zheng Jing would do anything Zheng Lun asked him to, irrespective.
What was more, he was doing it for his good buddys happiness and that was something Zheng Jing would definitely do!
Seeing Mu Qings twisted facial expression, he gave an order to his men. Keep this doctor here so he wont run away. He can be released after an hour.
The men with Lee Duo as the leader sieged Mu Qing so that he could not move an inch.
Mu Qing had noticed Zheng Jing but not Lee Duo behind his back!
He spent half a year with Lee Duo in the UK and was well aware of what he was capable of.
Seeing Zheng Jing running after Zhao Anan whilst himself being trapped on the spot, Mu Qing became totally speechless!
How many people had Shangguan Ning asked for help? This was a bit over the top, right? Judging from the current situation, it seemed that there were some more attacks yet toe. Would Zhao Anan be able to handle them?
Also, was Lee Duo in charge of keeping her safe? What was he doing here?
Lee Duo, we are good friends, arent we? Can you please release me? I have just got my girl back from the UK and I cant lose her again. Please, let me go, okay?! Mu Qing had to act emotional since he could not get out of this situation by force.
However, Lee Duo looked as if he did not know who he was. So he said with no expression on his face, You can go if you walk over my dead body!
Mu Qing got struck by his words. What dead body! Alright, he would not run after her anymore. Zheng Jing would make sure that Zhao Anan was fine.
Zhao Anan walked with a distracted mind. She didnt even know where she should go.
It was June, but she was feeling cold as if she were walking on a snowy day.
Her time with Mu Qing shed in her head and it seemed that even the arguments they had were a pleasant memory.
Was it true that she only knew how precious something was when she lost it?
She regretted what she had done to them.
Zhao Anan?!
A surprised voice arose from behind her back.
Zhao Anan turned around and saw the tall man and showed a brief smile, Oh, it is you, Zheng Jing!
What a coincidence that I ran into you here. Where are you going?! Zheng Jing walked forward, looking very surprised.
Zhao Anan would never expect that Zheng Jing would bump into her on purpose on this street. Zheng Jing was a very honest and serious man who barely told lies.
But a man with strong psychological control like Zheng Jing could be both totally honest or an absolute liar and could make all lies sound authentic, leaving no room for suspicion.
Especially when it came to Zhao Anan who was currently too tired to consider anything beyond what was on the surface.
Oh well, I... I am just wandering about!
Zheng Jing looked at her suspiciously. Wandering about? Your home is half an hour drive away. Howe you reached this ce?!
Oh, well, I... took a taxi!
A taxi? Alone? There are no entertainment facilities in this area. Also, arent you grounded? Did your mother give you the permission toe out?
I...
It was proved that lying in front of the best police officer of A City was a nerve racking thing!
And Zhao Anan did not have much brain left.
When she did not have much brain left, she had to use her muscle.
Zhao Anan suddenly hit hard on Zheng Jings shoulder as she said furiously, I like wandering about, how is it your business? If you say anything else, I will knock your teeth off. I am in a terrible mood and I need to vent my anger somewhere. Stop pestering me, or you will bear the consequences.
Zheng Jing fell into silence. The rude Zhao Anan had returned once again. Her sadnesssted only for one minute.
With his hand over his shoulder, heined about this annoying girl inside his heart whilst trying to console her on the surface. Dont be mad! I didnt mean anything. I just saw you alone and worried that something might happen to you. When you went missingst time, I took my men and searched the entire A City. I did try my best, so dont be so fierce, alright?
That Zheng Jing and his men tried to search her, made Zhao Anan fell quite grateful, although she said nothing to him.
She thought that when Mu Qing went to search for her, it was totally reasonable, and when Jing Yichen and his men searched for her, it was a given because he was her cousin. He had to find her, or no one else would.
But Zheng Jing also went to find her. It hadnt been his obligation but he still did it.
Chapter 553 - Unfaithful
Chapter 553: Unfaithful
Zhao Anan was not a cold, unfeeling person and regarded Zheng Jing as one of her close friends.
She had been so furious and hit Zheng Jing out of frustration a moment ago.
But if she was supposed to admit her mistake, she would never do it. So she snorted at Zheng Jing and continued with her wandering.
After strolling for sometime, Zhao Anan suddenly realized something and asked dubiously, Something is not right. Mr. Zheng, what are you doing here? This ce is at least one hour away from your ce, too.
Zheng Jing chuckled inside his heart. What a silly girl! It took her such a long while before she realized that something was amiss about the situation.
Although he was smirking inside, he looked serious and said without changing his expression, A murder urred here, so I am here to investigate the site. I am checking the path to find out how the murderer could have escaped.
Zheng Jing was a way better liar than Zhao Anan. They were not even in the same league.
Zhao Anan believed his words even more since she was distracted by her own matters.
Zheng Jing, however, was not done yet. He said calmly, It is very dangerous for a single girl like you to be wandering about outside. Let me give you a lift home!
I am not going home! Zhao Anan bellowed furiously, Leave me alone! Go and work on your case.
I cant do that. What if something happens to you here? Mu Qing will y me alive. You are my future sister-inw and I cant let you roam around. Case cer, you are the priority. Zheng Jing got goosebumps after he said thest sentence.
Zhao Anans face sank when she heard him mention Mu Qing.
After she stayed silent for a long while, she decided to tell Zheng Jing about their breakup. She didnt want him mentioning it in front of Mu Qing, in the future.
I have broken up with Mu Qing and we are living separately, now. Dont call me sister-inw in the future, in case his new girlfriend gets mad about it.
What? When did this happen? Why am I not informed about anything?! Zheng Jing looked surprised as if he truly had no idea of what was going on. He had heard about Shangguan Nings n from Zheng Lun and knew more about it than Zhao Anan did!
Has the bastard broken your heart by falling for someone else?! Hang on. I will go and punch him for you. He said and was about to turn around.
Zhao Anan got hold of Zheng Jing and said hurriedly, No, no, no it is not his fault, it is mine!
Zhao Anan might not be a very calctive person but she was not stupid either. Zheng Jing was behaving weirdly today, but she could not figure out in which way.
Zheng Jing had not been very talkative earlier, and whenever they met, they would argue rather than talk peacefully in this way.
Zhao Anan was confused, but Zheng Jing looked normal. Could she be overthinking everything right now?
Sigh, it was not the time to suspect Zheng Jing, and she must not allow him to punch Mu Qing.
I broke up with him, and his family asked him to go on a blind date. He will soon have a new girlfriend. It is not your business, so you can leave it aside.
Zhao Anan said as tears welled up in her eyes.
When she thought of what she had seen, she still felt her heart ache a great deal. Soon she lost the little energy that had remained within her and started to desire a good sleep.
I am going home now, you can leave.
Zheng Jing would not allow her to go home by herself. He got hold of her arm. No way, I will give you a lift home. You are behaving weirdly.
Unable to get rid of him, Zhao Anan suddenly got thronged with fury. She threw herself at him and punched him.
Zheng Jing did not move, although he was in pain.
He was thinking that he would give Mu Qing a few punches too so that he could taste what his girlfriends blizzard fists tasted like. Zhao Anan had been spoiled because of him.
Zhao Anan punched him and then started to cry loudly. She did not even care about what the passers-by were thinking.
Zheng Jing soon had a disgusted expression when he saw her wiping snot and tears on his clothes.
What a messy girl!
He will have to throw away these clothes and will ask Mu Qing to get him a new set.
But the way Zhao Anan cried, moved him, so Zheng Jing swept her into his arms C his clothes had gotten messy and a little more would not matter.
Zheng Jing patted her, consoling her in a soft voice, It is fine, no more tears! It is not a big deal, you will get over it.
Zhao Anan ignored him but kept crying. She had not cried so thoroughly in a long time.
Zheng Jings shirt was soaked. He was really not pleased that Shangguan Ning asked him for help today.
Anan, there are boys everywhere. If Mu Qing doesnt work, you can find someone else. See, you look sofortable in my arms, what about trying it with me, instead?
Zhao Anans wails suddenly stopped!
She asked in surprise with a pair of swollen eyes, What did you say?!
She thought that she heard something unbelievable.
What did he mean by trying it with him instead? This was totally hical. Zheng Lun would get very sad if she ever heard that.
Zheng Jing got visibly embarrassed. For the very first time, he stuttered, Oh well... I am just... babbling! Dont take it seriously. I was trying to console you, and nothing else.
Zhao Anan stopped being sad at this moment. She red at Zheng Jing and cracked her knuckles. I will not spare you if you get any funny ideas. You are marrying no one except for Lun in your life, or I will cut off your manhood!
It is very hard to control ones emotions, right? Maybe I will fall for this girl today and another one, tomorrow. You dont like Mu Qing any more. It is also normal for me to fall for someone else too, right?!
Zheng Jing looked nonchnt. He no longer had the serious look on him. Instead, he looked like a womanizer!
Due to Zheng Jings past behaviour where he fell for that police officer, Zhu Ruotong and even offered to marry her, Zhao Anan suddenly thought that Zheng Jing might start an affair once again by falling for someone else and disappoint Zheng Lun who was so devoted to him!
Chapter 554 - Best Girlfriends Boyfriend
Chapter 554: Best Girlfriends Boyfriend
Zhao Anan got increasingly furious. All men were terrible!
Mu Qing broke up with her just a day before and now he was getting on so well with his blind date. Zheng Jing, on the other hand, was out seeking for someone before something even happened between him and Zheng Lun.
She held Zheng Jing by his cor and bellowed. You are not allowed to like anyone else!
The passers-by allughed at her when they heard her shouting.
Oh my, girls nowadays are so dominating. They want to control their boyfriends to such an extent.
She was crying in her boyfriends arms for so long. He must have fallen for someone else so she is mad.
I dont think that her boyfriend looks like the unfaithful type. He looks so just and handsome. The girl must be the unruly one.
True! She is so dominating. No one will want to marry her.
...
As the gossip arose around her, Zhao Anan could not utter another word.
Move away! Are you all so free? He is not my boyfriend, but my best girlfriends! I am giving him a lecture on her behalf.
Zhao Anan was not meek. When she saw the passers-by mistaking Zheng Jing as her boyfriend, she bellowed at them.
But her exnation worked the other way around.
There were so many cases about a girl robbing her best friend of the boyfriend. Every romantic drama had a story like that.
So Zhao Anan received a disdainful look from everyone around.
Young girls should learn to be ethical. Shame on you for taking your best friends boyfriend.
No wonder she was crying just now. The man must have turned her down. The person who said thisment sounded very unfriendly. Zhao Anan wanted to punch her.
Lecturing my best friends boyfriend? How weird! What position do you have to lecture him, when he should be lectured only by your best friend herself.
Maybe they are getting a room soon after this fight. Poor best friend, she is not at all aware of the situation.
Not sure who is her best friend. We must tell her!
...
Zhao Anan almost passed out because of these peoples words.
What was going on with these peoples heads? When did she try to take her best friends boyfriend? She would never be interested in a man, or even ten men of Zheng Jings type.
This crowd was just going on screaming without knowing anything. If rumors like this reached Zheng Lun, she would not be able to exin a thing.
Zheng Jing looked at Zhao Anan speechlessly. He really wanted to crack her head open to see if it was full of water.
Why did she never think before acting?
She was causing a misunderstanding. Even he felt that something was wrong with what she said.
If Mu Qing truly married her, he would have to face a lot of trouble.
But what Zheng Jing did not know was that half of these were Shangguan Nings people.
There were not many people who would like to stick their nose into any couples affairs. Normally, people would not want to stop a couples fight, and let them handle their own things.
Shangguan Ning had been afraid that no one would help Zhao Anan, so she arranged some people to follow her so as to stick their noses when it was necessary, just to distort the rtionship between Zhao Anan and Zheng Jing so that there was no way left for Zhao Anan to retreat.
Zhao Anan was not aware of the trap that was especially set for her, and what she said had made it possible for such a rumor to be created.
She did not have a mild temper. Seeing so many people misunderstanding her, she got so furious that she threw herself into the crowd just to punch someone.
But Zheng Jing soon took hold of her. Oh mydy, stop messing around. There are twenty of them here, and you will get thrashed badly.
They misunderstood me. Tell them that we are not in a rtionship!
Alright, alright! I will!
Zheng Jing looked up and exined to them, We are not in a rtionship. We are just ordinary friends. You can all go, the sun is strong and you may get a sunstroke!
His exnation was weak, and the crowd could hear what Zhao Anan had asked Zheng Jing to say, after all.
They were hugging and still said that they were not in a rtionship? Incredible!
As the extras finished their mission, they left.
After the extras left, the real audience did not remain either. They left shaking their heads.
Zheng Jing saw some suspicious people in the group and frowned.
Something was wrong today!
Zheng Jing sensed a conspiracy behind it.
Shangguan Ning!
It must be her again.
She did tell him to implicitly confess to Zhao Anan, but never mentioned what would happen then.
She seemed to have aprehensive n for today.
He was okay with it, but Zhao Anan....
Zheng Jing looked down and saw Zhao Anan getting extremely furious.
Shangguan Ning was going to drive Zhao Anan mad!
After he had heard the general n from Zheng Lun, he thought that the n was feasible and could be a sess in the end, although he did not think much about Zhao Anan and her feelings.
Otherwise he would not have joined in the n to y a romantic role.
Zheng Jing was just thinking this when Zhao Anan bellowed loudly, Zheng Jing, you bastard! What are you touching my belly for? Get your hand off me!
Zheng Jing jerked back and removed his hand.
Oh man, he had no interest in Zhao Anan. He had never even regarded her as a woman. He liked quiet and gentle beautiful women like Zheng Lun, not someone tough like Zhao Anan.
Why would he want to touch her belly? It was like touching a tigers bottom C seeking death!
He would be killed if Mu Qing ever got to know about it.
No, no, please dont misunderstand me. I was just trying to stop you. If I ever want to touch you, I will touch your breasts, not your belly!
That was a terrible exnation!
He had no interest in Zhao Anans breasts either!
Chapter 555 - Robbery!
Chapter 555: Robbery!
Undoubtedly, what Zheng Jing said drew Zhao Anans punches.
Why didnt I know about you being so indecent? Shameless! Bastard! Pervert! You want to touch my breasts? I will cut your fingers off for Lun!
Had it not been because of exercising the whole year around and having a strong physical condition, he would have been beaten down by Zhao Anan.
Her fists were strong, especially when she reached the peak of her anger.
She would have punched Zheng Jings manhood had she not considered Zheng Luns future enjoyment.
Zheng Jing had to send this dominating queen back home in a taxi, even if hended into trouble.
Zhao Anan kept babbling and counselling Zheng Jing, meaning that he must have a heart only for Zheng Lun, not for anyone else.
Zheng Jing stayed silent and left her alone to keep misunderstanding him. He was okay with it, as long as Zheng Lun did not.
Shangguan Ning had assigned him to make Zhao Anan misunderstand him!
Shangguan Ning made an borate n just for Zhao Anans sake. Zhao Anan might be too silly to figure it out, but even he might not have been able to see through it had he not known about the n ahead of time.
He knew that the woman Jing Yichen hadid eyes upon would not have been an ordinary being.
She looked gentle and easygoing, but turned out to be someone with lots of tricks as well. Could it be because she was close to Jing Yichen so she picked the skills from him, or had she always been a very calctive person?
None of these women was any less troublesome!
His Zheng Lun was the best C mild, kind-hearted, pure and never causing any trouble.
As they approached the Zhao Familys vi, Zhao Anan suddenly stopped lecturing and started to touch Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing stiffened!
What was this woman doing?!
Shangguan Ning had not told him that he would need to make any physical sacrifice for this mission.
What are you doing, Zhao Anan?! I am warning you, dont touch me anymore, or I will not show you any mercy!
Zhao Anan was dumbfounded and then realized what Zheng Jing meant.
She struck hard on Zheng Jings head and red as she said, Damn it! What are you thinking about? I wont look at you even if you are naked. Give me all the money you have.
Zheng Jing was speechless.
Tell me if you need money. What do you mean by touching me without saying anything? Who knows if you want me or the money?
I am poor. I dont have any money!
Give me your money, or I will continue to touch you!
Alright, alright! I will give it to you. Cant you behave a bit like ady? I am a man! Zheng Jing emptied his wallet and decided to give her several hundreds of bills just to get her off him.
Zhao Anan took everything from the wallet, not leaving even a single coin inside.
Oh mydy, cant you spare some for me? How will I go home without money? It takes one hour to drive from your home to mine. Are you asking me to walk home?!
Zhao Anan thought for a moment and decided to give Zheng Jing some money. She understood what it felt like being poor.
She grabbed two notes of one yuan from the stack and passed them to him. Here, take them!
She sounded as if she were giving the beggar some money out of kindness, making Zheng Jing get so furious that he wanted to p Zhao Anan.
Two yuans? That is for a beggar. This is my money. Give it back to me. Master Jing said that I cant give you the money, otherwise I will be yed alive.
Two yuan, yes! If you think it is too little, I will take that back too!
What can I do with two yuan? The taxi fare starts at 11 yuan!
You can take a bus!
Zheng Jing was speechless.
And you can also do a transfer to another bus.
Zheng Jing was not happy. He had more than 2,000 yuan in his pocket but Zhao Anan robbed him and only gave him two yuan back.
Zhao Anan tossed the wallet and the two yuan back to Zheng Jing and stuffed the 2,000 yuan into her cleavage as she said gleefully, You wont be able to get it back now!
Zheng Jing pped his forehead and thought that this girl did have a lot of ideas.
Okay, okay, I wont! All that money is yours. I am very happy to be able to give you the money.
Damn, he was not at all happy!
He wanted to get it back.
What if Zhao Anan had money and ran away, then he would have to take the responsibility.
Zhao Ananughed wildly.
She was an outgoing person and forgot about the unhappy stuff very easily. Since she had got the money, she was delighted, although her eyes were still swollen.
Zheng Jing could not help but let out a sigh C what a broad-minded person! She had forgotten about the whole thing so fast, not sure if it was a good or a bad thing.
When Zhao Anan arrived at the Zhao Family, she paid the fare and rushed inside as if trying to get away from Zheng Jing as soon as possible.
Zheng Jing shook his head and said to the driver, To Landscape Compound.
He had to tell Shangguan Ning about his mission!
Good that he did not keep all the money in the wallet. There was a 100 yuan note tucked away in his pocket. Otherwise he would truly have to take a bus.
Zhao Anan tiptoed home and sneaked a peek inside C oh, no one was at home!
How wonderful!
Finally, something worked out today.
If her grandmother and mother discovered that she had run out for a bit she would have been lectured for a long time.
Aunt Qian, isnt my grandmother back yet?
Aunt Qian said with a smile, No, she is noting home for lunch today. She is out with ady at some friends home. What do you want to eat? I can make it for you.
Oh really? They are noting back?! That was wonderful! She hoped that they could get a few more friends who would invite them out for meals all the time. If Zhao Anan knew that this so-called friend was actually Shangguan Ning, she would have gotten extremely furious.
Sure, I will eat alone... Well, I want beefsteak!
She had been to a western restaurant where she could not even order the most ordinary beefsteak but watch Mu Qing and that foxydy wolfing down the food.
Now she was at home and she was not going to be polite!
One hourter, Zhao Anan no longer felt that sad, especially when she was fully fed.
She went upstairs to her bedroom. She nned to lie down and sleep, and forget that made her unhappy today. But she couldnt and kept thinking about what she had seen.
Chapter 556 - Shangguan Ning, the Chief Director
Chapter 556: Shangguan Ning, the Chief Director
A handsome man and a charmingdy were sitting opposite each other on the white sofa by the window, as the sunshine sshed upon them. Their fingers were interlinked, and they were kissing passionately.
That was, of course, what Zhao Anan was imagining.
In reality, they had held hands for a short moment and when Mi Xiaoxiao kissed Mu Qing, she was just being polite. She had even been worried that Mu Qing was taking advantage of her as well.
But Zhao Anans imagination was running wild. She kept tossing back and forth on the bed and thought that those two might be having a great time in a luxurious suite of a five-star hotel!
She got so jealous that she wanted to get them thrown out of the hotel.
Then she would tell that foxydy that this man was hers, not anyone elses!
But she did not know where they were staying and even if she did, she could not possibly go there to catch them.
She was not in a position to do so.
Oh man, I am being driven mad by you guys. What should I do?!
Zhao Anan kept screaming in her bedroom, making Aunt Qian check on her again and again.
No!!! I must get Mu Qing back! He is mine! Mine!!!
No, forget about it. I have broken up with him and grandmother has even apologized to the Mu Family! I must not hold him back...
Mu Qing, you bastard! Why are you not here looking for me? Why must you get on a blind date with that foxydy? I will cut you into pieces.
What is so good about that woman? She has nothing but a better face, longer legs, bigger breasts and milder temper. I am a good woman too. I am strong andbative, outgoing and cheerful. Are you blind, Mu Qing?!
Oh no, let me die now, let me die! Come back, cancer,e back!
...
Zhao Anan kept mumbling in the bedroom. Sometimes sheughed, sometimes she cried, sometimes she cursed and sometimes she med herself. Aunt Qian who was hiding behind the door, got so confused when she heard all that.
Zhao Anan might have been taken for a mentally-disturbed person by an outsider.
No, that foxydy looked like a bad person. I will stalk her and get proof that she is a terrible person. Then I will throw that evidence on Mu Qings face and tell him not to marry that woman in case his life is ruined, even though I cant marry him!
Zhao Anan mumbled for a long time before finally finding a good excuse to make herself fall asleep.
...
It was a lively scene at Shangguan Nings home at Landscape Compound.
The Old Lady of the Zhao Family, Zhao Zhao, Zheng Jing, Zheng Lun and Mu Qing as well as Jing Yichen who was ying with Jing Rui were all there.
Shangguan Ning was very happy that so many people were at her apartment, but Jing Yichen was not.
He did not like it when there were so many people around them, taking up Shangguan Nings time.
It was good that his son liked being hugged by him and beamed at him every now and then, keeping Jing Yichen cheerful.
It was all Zhao Anans fault who had caused trouble for everyone. Shangguan Ning was so devoted to her that she was spending more time on her than on Jing Rui right now.
Apart from Jing Yichen who was looking cold, Zheng Jing and Mu Qing looked unhappy as well.
Only Shangguan Ning was very excited, because everything was happening as she wanted. She knew Zhao Anan way too well, and had been making this n since the time when Zhao Anan went missing. She had taken all possibilities into consideration, and was just waiting for Zhao Anan to fall into the trap.
The Old Lady and Zhao Zhao were with Shangguan Ning, fully. They knew Zhao Anans personality and believed that if she was not forced, she would not bend.
The olddy was worried about just one thing. Ning, the girl who went on the blind date with Mu Qing... does she have a boyfriend already?
Shangguan Ning understood instantly what she was worried about, so she replied with a smile, Grandmother, dont worry, she has already got a boyfriend. She is my good friend and I know her personality. She knows how to y it well, or I would not have asked her for help. Also, she has received such a precious gift from you. She would not dare to think about anything else.
Thedies had given such an expensive gift on purpose to make sure that the girl would be satisfied, in case she fell for Mu Qing. Mu Qing was a very popr bachelor in A City with good looks, impressive background and mild temper. It was very normal that he was liked by many girls.
They did not know Mi Xiaoxiao, and feared that if the n backfired, making Mi Xiaoxiao and Mu Qinge together instead, then they would have nowhere left to shed their tears.
But they felt assured after hearing Shangguan Nings promise.
Mu Qing smiled bitterly.
Even if Mi Xiaoxiao had feelings for him, he would never have any feelings for her. How little did they trust him that they were worried about this issue?
But he had also felt that Mi Xiaoxiao did not have any feelings towards him. She was forced by Shangguan Ning to y the role so as to stimte Zhao Anan.
They were eating lunch around the table. Luckily, Jing Yichen had a huge dining room to host all these people together.
After lunch, the Old Lady and Zhao Zhao left in a hurry after discussing theter part of the n with Shangguan Ning.
They were a bit worried about Zhao Anan, since she had been through a lot, today. If something really happened to her, they would be very upset. So they had to hurry home to check on her.
Shangguan Ning was a bit worried too. So when Zhao Zhao was leaving, she said to her, Aunt, do tell me how Anan is, after you arrive at home. I dont want her to be too worked up.
Zhao Zhao knew that she was worried, so she consoled her with a smile, Dont worry, that girl is very broad-minded. She may be furious for a moment but she still eats and sleeps well. I just need to make sure that she wont get so angry that she burns the house down!
After the mother and the daughter left, Mu Qing came to Shangguan Ning and said with a smile, Sister-inw, can I talk with you for a second?
Shangguan Ning knew that he was feeling unsure again.
Chapter 557 - More Waiting?
Chapter 557: More Waiting?
Mu Qing feared hurting Zhao Anan and had been hesitant from the beginning.
If Mu Qing had approved of the n earlier, it would have started much sooner rather than now.
Shangguan Ning also wanted to have a long chat with Mu Qing, because previously, they were just talking on the phone and there was some stuff that needed to be talked face to face so that she would sound more persuasive.
She was just about to say okay when a cold voice arose behind her. No way.
As Mu Qing looked at Jing Yichen, who was holding Jing Rui in his arms, he suddenly felt that there was no other equally handsome father in the world like Jing Yichen.
Jing Rui was dressed really cutely, as well. He was wearing a small t-shirt with a cartoon pattern in blue color and a white pair of pants with rabbit ears. He was snug in Jing Yichens arms and was biting his little fingers as he looked around with hisrge eyes.
He was looking more and more like Jing Yichen!
The father and the son were so attractive standing together.
Mu Qing envied Jing Yichen a great deal.
Jing Yichen had not touched a woman for more than 30 years and was used to being alone. He had been the most hard working among all of his friends.
But now, he had obtained happiness.
He had a very gentle and virtuous wife as well as a lovely, smart son. His life was very happy and steady at the moment.
But Mu Qing was not the only person who envied him. Zheng Jing was another one. Probably he had had a very difficult life before and hence, was having a wonderful marital life.
Every time Mu Qing saw Jing Yichen holding Jing Rui, he found it amazing. He was lethal and cold, but when he was holding Jing Rui in his arms, he was just an ordinary man who loved his son.
Like every other father, he would y with him and lift him up into the air, and showed no disdain towards changing his diaper. He used to be obsessed with cleanness before!
Jing Yichen did not know that Mu Qing was jealous of him and would not even care if he did. What he minded was that Mu Qing was talking with Shangguan Ning alone.
Why must he have a private conversation with Shangguan Ning?
Jing Yichen was not pleased, so he said with a cold face, Speak in front of me.
Mu Qing was speechless. He was way too possessive.
He was just talking with Shangguan Ning privately for a moment and they were at his home. Why must hee in between?
Alright, alright!
Mu Qing saidpromisingly. There was no need to argue with Jing Yichen.
He was talking about something that everyone knew about, except that he might get a bit embarrassed.
Shangguan Ning shook her head helplessly and took hold of Jing Yichens arms with a smile, We are just talking, you are overreacting.
Jing Yichen looked at her and said calmly, I am not.
Then he held Shangguan Nings hand and led her into the study.
Mu Qing followed behind in embarrassment, under the curious look of Zheng Jing.
In the study, Jing Yichen ced Jing Rui upon hisrge desk and used the wireless mouse to distract him.
Shangguan Ning sat on the chair next to them and watched the father and the son. When Mu Qing entered, he felt like an intruder.
Shangguan Ning turned to him and smiled as she saw him entering. Sit, Doctor Mu.
Mu Qing sat down opposite them, hesitated for a second and then went straight into the topic, Sister-inw, I think that we should drop the n regarding Anan.
Shangguan Ning had expected that he would say so. She did not look annoyed and smiled instead.
Mu Qing had never approved of her n because Anan would definitely be struck hard by it and feel upset.
Mu Qing did not want to force Zhao Anan in this way and Ning had predicted that.
Mu Qing, do you think that I am harming Anan? Shangguan Ning was smiling but she sounded serious.
It was the first time for her to call Mu Qing by his full name, unlike how she normally addressed him as Doctor Mu.
Worried that Shangguan Ning would get angry, he exined quickly, No, no, Sister-inw. You are doing this for her and my sake. I am not doubting you!
Shangguan Ning withdrew her smile and asked him in a sharp tone, Then what do you mean?
I... Mu Qing got slightly startled. He had never seen Shangguan Ning behave in this way.
She seemed to be at the verge of picking up a fight with him.
For a moment, he thought that Shangguan Ning had be a different person.
You dont want to marry Anan?!
Of course, I want to marry her!
Then why are you not marrying her?!
I... Mu Qing suddenly got stuck in words.
Are you waiting until she realises it herself or do you want to stay as her friend throughout her entire life?
Shangguan Ning sounded cold and a little bit sarcastic as well.
Mu Qing, if it was possible for her to realise it herself, would she have waited for so many years? She is afraid, afraid that she will die and you will have to suffer from her death and your steady life will be affected. She loves you deeply. But the deeper she loves you, the less is the chance that she would marry you. If someday she decides to marry you, then it means that she no longer cares about you.
Are you still going to wait for her?
You are afraid of hurting Anan? Sorry, you must hurt her this time. If she is not hurt, she will never realise the truth. You have done so much for her, and she is used to receiving your kindness and doesnt care about it. In other words, she doesnt know how to cherish your love. I dont want to hurt her either, but if I dont do this, you will never be together in your life and she will not get happiness either.
Mu Qings mouth opened, but he did not utter a word.
He did not know how to turn down Shangguan Ning. She was simply telling the truth.
Maybe you can find some other woman, but Anan will never find any other man apart from you. She is my best friend. I cant let her live and die alone.
Sister-inw, I object to what you said. I am not going to go to any other woman, either. Or I wont have waited until now. You must trust me! Mu Qing could not help but argue back.
Earlier, only Jing Yichen used to stress him out but he never expected that Shangguan Ning would give him such a big stress as well. He did not have any other way left to argue with Shangguan Ning.
She had been hiding her true side up till now!

This couple truly belonged to each other. They resembled one another even in the way of stressing out others.
It seemed that he did not know Shangguan Ning well enough.
Yes, I trust you, but I was just giving an example.
Shangguan Ning sounded calm and her facial expressions had not changed.
She, of course, trusted Mu Qing, otherwise she would not have asked the lusty Mi Xiaoxiao to go on a blind date with him.
We need your support. And you are not allowed to withdraw. In theing couple of months, you are not allowed to meet Anan alone unless it is totally necessary. You are not allowed to sneak a peek at her no matter how much she suffers. You are not allowed to leak my n to her, either. I have people keeping eyes on you.
What? Sister-inw... you... Mu Qing was not willing to ept this.
What do you mean by What? Anan is not a child any more and she is not as weak as you imagine her to be. You can spoil her rotten in the future, but not in the next two months.
Mu Qing was still very unwilling. He had witnessed Zhao Anans expressions today.
She must have assumed that he had fallen for someone else and must be in despair right now like a heart that had been soaked in cold water.
He could not see her like this.
Shangguan Ning knew that he was not willing to do what he was asked to, judging from his twisted expression.
She let out a sigh and said in a soft voice, People only realise what they are missing after receiving setbacks. They would only know what they should have cherished and treasured after losing it. Anan has had a very smooth life, so she is proud and arrogant. She is brave in every sense and does not feel desperate despite her disease. But she assumes that she would have a good life even without you around. You must let her understand that without you, she will not be able to live on.
Mu Qing, just wait and see! I will give back apletely new Zhao Anan to you and you wont have to wait for too long. You have been waiting for her for eleven years. Cant you just wait for a few more months? I promise that after this, Anan will not dodge you any more. She wille and beg you to marry her, trust me!
Mu Qing was shocked inside his heart.
Wait and see, I will give back apletely new Zhao Anan to you!
She wille and beg you to marry her
Could that really be true?
Would he really be living together with Anan forever?
She would not run away any more?
Mu Qing looked up and saw the determination and persistence in Shangguan Nings eyes and finally nodded decisively. Alright! I will wait. Thank you so much, sister-inw, I will never forget about your care for us.
Shangguan Ning smiled brightly after hearing his words. You dont need to thank me. I am doing this for Anan. When you get married in the future, let her give me a huge red packet as a present, and this way, she can never im again that she was a match-maker!
She sounded gentle and calm again.
The sharp side of Shangguan Ning was hidden once again.
Mu Qing respected Shangguan Ning now, not only because she was Jing Yichens wife, but because she was doing something for her friend with a true heart. She was a charmingdy with a firm determination and a calm mind.
Shangguan Ning would benefit nothing from this n, and was spending so much energy and effort coordinating everything. If Zhao Anan discovered something about the n, she would definitely pick up a fight with her and even get mad at her.
She was facing a risk and huge stress as well.
Mu Qing threw a deep look at the smiling Shangguan Ning and walked out of the study with endless gratitude.
Seeing Mu Qing leaving the study, Jing Yichen said with a calm voice, Ning, you dont need to care about their affairs. It is Mu Qings fault that he did not handle it well. He deserves to remain a single man. I am concerned about you putting so much effort into their affairs.
Shangguan Ning stood up from the chair with a smile, and kissed him on the lips.
My husband, of course, should feel concerned about me. But I am a happy girl so I must make sure my matchmaker is happy, too!
Jing Yichen had supported Shangguan Nings n at the beginning, but he got very annoyed when Mu Qing showed his unwillingness.
How dare he not ept Shangguan Nings proposal?
Then he could just stay single throughout his life.
Zhao Anan was annoying, as well. He felt that if she was so spoiled, she could just waste her time with Mu Qing so that when they reached the age of 80, she would be full of regrets.
With one hand upon Jing Rui on the table and the other over his wifes waist, he showed a touch of gentleness on the face, Werent you a silly woman who was not calctive? Since when did you get so smart making Anan fall in the trap? You should be awarded with the Best Director Prize.
Shangguan Ning looped her hands around Jing Yichens neck and said with a smile, I am a very calctive woman, it is just that I dont like using such methods. It costs time and energy. And those people in the past did not deserve my attention. I am putting in so much effort for Zhao Anan because I want to make her happy.
Shangguan Ning was not very calctive, but she tried her best for the sake of Zhao Anan. It took her a long time to think over this detailed n.
Well, I need your help too! Shangguan Ning said with a smile.
Hearing that she needed his help, Jing Yichen smiled and said, Sure, I promise toplete your mission. I have been thinking that I am not offering much help when I see you giving instructions to everyone all the time. Even, Lee Duo and his men are being used. Maybe I can retire and be a stay at home husband!
Shangguan Ning burst intoughter. She looked at Jing Rui and then at Jing Yichen and suddenly felt that Jing Yichen would make a good stay at home father!
I need you to arrange a simple job that requires someone to be responsible, so that she wont be exhausted but can be restrained, easy to be approached by my men!
No problem. That is just a piece of cake for me!
Jing Yichen agreed instantly.
Chapter 559 - Beautiful
Chapter 559: Beautiful
Outside the study, Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun were in a conversation.
Zheng Lun was putting a boiled egg upon Zheng Jings face. His face had received numerous punches from Zhao Anan and he had a huge bruise at the corner of his eye. It could be seen clearly that Zhao Anan had used a lot of force.
....Zhao Anan was med by the outsiders that she had robbed her best friend of her boyfriend, and she was not happy about it, so she wanted to punch those people. Of course I had to stop her by taking hold of her, and hence, I ended up getting punched!
Zheng Jing thought of the way that Zhao Anan behaved on the street, and found it ridiculous. But his sister looked so concerned, so he recounted the story briefly in a nonchnt tone.
These bruises were nothing for a man like him, because they would go away in a couple of days. But Zheng Lun insisted on putting an egg on him, so Zheng Jing had toply and allowed her to roll the egg at the corner of his eyes.
Zheng Lun was certainly concerned about her brother. After Mu Qing and others went into the study, she, despite her brothers protest, unbuttoned his shirt and checked him, only to find several bruises on his body, as well.
Even a gentle girl like Zheng Lun could not stand it any more. She stomped hard andined about Zhao Anans ruthlessness. How much force did she use?
Was it because Zheng Jing was not the man she liked, so she kept punching him hard? What if Mu Qing had been in that position?
Forget it, I wont me her anymore. When she and Mu Qing reallye together, I will definitely pull her ears. When she hits you next time, you must try to dodge her, brother!
Zheng Lun had once witnessed Zhao Anan being in a fight with her brother. It had been too much to bear.
They had grouped up to set Zhao Anan up and she felt guilty about it, thinking that she was not doing the right thing.
Also, after she got to know about Zhao Anans illness, she had be more tolerant towards her, so no matter what she did, Zheng Lun would not get mad at her.
But her heart ached when her brother was hit, and that was not something she could control her reaction towards.
Mu Qing saw the brother and the sister sitting there withoutining about Zhao Anan. They even tolerated it and forgave her.
He felt very grateful inside his heart, and was certain that he had a very reliable friend.
Zheng Lun looked weak and timid, but she was sparing no efforts to help Anan, too. She was a good girl.
Mu Qing came to their side and said to Zheng Jing, Bro, I cant express my gratitude towards you, but I am apologizing on behalf of Anan. She is a hot-tempered person and has been spoiled. I will give you some medicer. It will surely work!
Zheng Jing turned to look at him and said with an open smile, Medicine for me? Are you giving it because you think that Zhao Anan will punch me some more times? You two are the perfect couple, one hits, other cures. She is getting more and more violent and you may have to suffer in the future, as well. Sister-inw has given me a very difficult mission, and today is just the first day. I will have to be in touch with Anan in the following days and I may be yed alive, eventually.
Zheng Jing was a generous person and he did not mind being hit by Zhao Anan. What was more, it was he who had irritated her.
Mu Qing obviously understood what Zhao Anan was like and he was sure that Zheng Jing would be hit more times in the future.
Zheng Jing was his good friend and Mu Qing did not feel apologetic to him, because they were very close. But he felt guilty because of Zheng Lun.
Seeing Zheng Luns concerned look, Mu Qing felt really bad. So he came to talk with them, purposefully sending the message across to Zheng Lun.
Bro, you probably have to look out for her in theing two months or so. Sister-inw has forbidden me from getting in touch with Anan, in case I ruin the n.
Mu Qing was uneasy, and hoped that Zheng Jing could keep her safe.
I will definitely show up in front of her every single day. You dont have to worry.
Zheng Jings joke made Mu Qing smile. Then he blinked at him. Well, I have got other things to do at the moment, so I will be off now. I will send you the medicine soon. Till then, enjoy your pain for a bit longer!
Having said the words, he walked out, leaving Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing sitting next to each other.
Zheng Luns snowy white face flushed as she held the warm egg upon Zheng Jings face and heard Mu Qings words. Soon she flushed even to the root of her ears.
What did Mu Qing mean?
She was concerned about her brothers wound and was helping him cure the swelling. But Mu Qings words made it sound as if she were up to something else.
As Zheng Lun was distracted, her fingers touched Zheng Jings face. She immediately withdrew her hand. Then she said in a very small voice, Bro, you can do it yourself!
Zheng Jing got a bit startled when he saw his sister blushing.
After his sister befriended Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan, she had be more outgoing than before. She was no longer timid and didnt hide herself like she used to do earlier.
She was flush with radiance, right now and looked like a delicate porcin piece, one that everyone wanted to hold and touch.
Her smooth, silken hair was spread over her shoulders and her ears were exquisite and pretty. She had her head slightly lowered and her necks arch stood out, making her outline look near perfect.
Zheng Lun turned around to look at Zheng Jing. She realised that he had been silent for long, only to find that he was staring at her face, transfixed. Then her face turned redder.
Brother!
She got both annoyed and bashful as she cried out at her brothers name. But what she felt inside her heart, was a touch of sweetness.
Zheng Jing became normal, showing no embarrassment. Instead, he stared into Zheng Luns eyes and said in a soft voice, Lun, you are very beautiful.
Zheng Lun did not expect that Zheng Jing would utter such words ever to her.
He used to speak nicely to her before as well, but she felt that these words were different. He used to see her as an elder brother, but today, Zheng Lun could feel that he wasplimenting her like a man to a woman.
Chapter 560 - Irresistible Love (Part One)
Chapter 560: Irresistible Love (Part One)
Zheng Luns heart skipped a beat and herrge eyes stared at Zheng Jing without blinking. The blush had spread all over her neck, and even to her corbone.
Her skin was snowy white, and now it was painted rosy.
Her eyes showed a kind of love that could not be ignored, and it made Zheng Jings heart throb violently.
He stretched out his fingers and gripped Zheng Luns soft hand. He said in a low voice, Lets go.
With her hand in his, Zheng Lun felt that the warmthing from his palm made her heart beat even faster.
She followed Zheng Jing and walked out with him.
Outside the door, Tiger, Lee Duo and Knife Lee were standing.
Zheng Jing did not release his grip on her hand but nodded at the three men. He told Tiger, Tiger, tell Master Jing that we have to be off, now.
Tiger smiled at him and said, Sure, Brother Zheng, you can leave now, I will tell Master!
Zheng Jing took Zheng Lun into the elevator. Immediately, Tiger asked Lee Duo, Duo, has Brother Zheng fallen for his sister? The sister looked so embarrassed and shy!
Lee Duo, who had always been silent and steady, got very annoyed at the moment.
I have told you many times that you must call me Brother Lee, or Lee Duo, not Duo! Lee Duo scowled.
Ever since Tiger called him Duo, all his men had started calling him Duo as well. And it was embarrassing!
Tiger was not happy about what Lee Duo was focused upon. Wasnt the news of the brother and the sister of the Zheng Family more exciting than his title? He called him Duo because he wanted to get close to him.
Anyway, Duo was never interested in gossip.
Tiger turned to the new man, Knife Lee and said with a smile, Knife, did you notice the abnormal behavior of the brother and the sister?
Knife Lee was even quieter than Lee Duo. He did not even lift his eyes when Tiger asked him the question. Nor did he care about how Tiger addressed him. He just stood still like a statue.
Seeing that he had no interest in gossip either, Tiger had to withdraw.
These men were so boring, and dumb like a piece of wood. They were even less talkative than Master. Could they have picked the skill from Master? But he had been by Masters side for so long and he had not turned into a silent man.
Poor Tiger, he had just learned a huge piece of gossip but couldnt find anyone to share it with.
Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing, who were the focus of Tigers gossip, took the elevator and went down to the underground garage.
Zheng Jings car was parked there.
Since Zheng Jing was a police officer, who was working for the government, his car was an ordinary looking Ford.
But it was actually a modified version. Apart from the appearance, every facility inside had been changed into the state-of-the-art equipment.
There were many times when he needed to chase the criminals and most of the criminals cars were top-notch expensive cars with excellent functions. What was the point of chasing them, if he couldnt catch them?
Therefore, many police cars at the department had been modified.
Zheng Jing had his hand over his sisters head and led her into the passengers seat, then went and opened the door to the driving seat and sat in.
He had one hand over the steering wheel and the other held Zheng Luns fingers.
He used so much strength as if he wanted to merge her palm into his own, that Zheng Lun uttered a painful sound.
Zheng Jing controlled himself, trying hard to restrain his desire and released her fingers.
Zheng Luns face was still red. She was embarrassed yet she did not want to let go of her brothers fingers. Instead, she let her fingers be held in his despite a bit of pain.
She looked up and stole a nce at her brothers side profile.
Zheng Jing was a strong man. He might not be as noble as Zheng Jing or as elegant as Mu Qing, yet he was virile looking. He had a strong willpower and a sharp sense of judgment.
He was also the kindest of all of the three.
Jing Yichen did not blink when he killed people. Mu Qing might be slightly less scary, but did not get too affected by life and death because he was a doctor.
Only Zheng Jing, the police officer who looked powerful on the outside, had actually a very soft heart. He might kill the evil ones, but he respected the human rights of ordinary suspects.
He treated animals with kindness, too. He often fed cats, puppies and tortoises together with Zheng Lun.
People always said that men who liked animals were men with real kindness.
That was what Zheng Jing was like.
Zheng Lun liked his kindness and his morality.
Of course, Zheng Jing was good-looking too. That was why he was assessed to be the best looking police officer in A City.
Zheng Lun did not dare to linger upon her brothers handsome face. She was worried that if she kept staring at him, it would make her fall for his charm, even more.
Zheng Jing, however, was very sensitive towards her. He was aware of Zheng Luns eyes on him.
He looked at her and asked softly, Lun, would you like to go somewhere? I can take you there.
Zheng Lun was introverted and quiet, and she did not normally go outdoors.
Where do you want to go?
She was not sure about where she should go, and did not care much about the ce, as long as her brother was with her.
Even if they went to the most boring ce in the world, she would find it beautiful with Zheng Jing around.
The car was filled with her faint scent and her soft voice almost made him lose control.
He realized that his willpower was getting weaker and weaker in front of his sister and one move of her would make him falter.
Chapter 561 - Irresistible Love (Part Two)
Chapter 561: Irresistible Love (Part Two)
But, they were siblings, at least in other peoples eyes.
Their parents would never agree to theiring together. Mother Zheng even held a private conversation with Zheng Lun some time back and from that moment on, Zheng Lun had not crossed the boundary or said anything inappropriate as a sister.
Zheng Lun was very grateful to the Zheng Family who had brought her up like their own daughter and she respected her mother who treated her so preciously. Since her childhood, she had never gone against her mothers wishes.
If she were the real daughter of the Zheng Family, she would not have been so concerned. But she was adopted and that made the gratitude even heavier.
Zheng Lun had always been an obedient and timid person, and she had never done anything out of the ordinary apart from falling for Zheng Jing. She would rather upset herself than sadden her mother.
But falling for Zheng Jing was not something that Zheng Lun could possibly control.
She, herself, was not sure of the time when she started to be so dependent upon her brother and realized that his every movement made her heart skip a beat.
She was not a girl with strong willpower and could be fickle at times. But she had never been unsure about her feelings for Zheng Jing.
Their parents objection had made Zheng Lun push the love into the bottom of her heart, but that love never disappeared.
Same went for Zheng Jing. But he was psychologically stronger than Zheng Lun so nothing showed on his face when he was facing his parents at home.
They had made a promise C they would not get intimate. Holding hands, today, was already over the boundary for them.
Maybe it was because they were outside home and away from their parents supervision that Zheng Jing somehow could not control his emotions.
It was a rare asion for Zheng Jing to be alone with Zheng Lun, anyways.
Zheng Jing took a deep breath, pressed down the impulse inside his heart and massaged Zheng Luns hand as he said gently, I know about a cherry park with a great view. We can go there to pick the cherries. It is not nearby, though.
Zheng Lun could not help but weaken when her fingers were carressed by his fingers. She felt as if a current was striking through her body.
She tried hard to press down the excitement and said softly, Sure, I will go with you. I have never done cherry picking.
Her voice sounded so gentle that Zheng Jings adams apple moved, and eyes turned heated.
He wanted to kiss her so badly. He wanted to taste her lustful lips, suck them and bite them softly!
But Zheng Jing chose to close his eyes and control himself.
He was, after all, a mature man who had managed to keep himself in check all this while.
Zheng Lun was not a silly woman. She could tell what he was thinking.
But he ended up controlling himself rather than kissing her!
Zheng Lun felt a bit disappointed, but soon she drove away the feelings of disappointment.
She did not have many expectations. She was already very satisfied that Zheng Jing could stay by her side and that they could maintain such a rtionship.
At least, they were both in love with each other.
Zheng Jing started the engine and slowly drove the car out of Landscape Compound, heading towards the cherry park on the outskirts.
On the way there, Zheng Jing did not release Zheng Luns hand but held it tightly as if he feared losing her.
Zheng Lun did not move, either.
It was not an everyday thing that they could be so intimate with each other. She felt happiness spreading all over her heart.
When they reached the cherry garden, Zheng Jing parked the car and walked out with Zheng Lun.
The owner of the cherry park was a couple in their 50s. They had been nting cherry trees for dozens of years. The couple apparently knew Zheng Jing well and when they saw himing hand in hand with a beautiful girl, they greeted him with a smile.
The man said, Officer Zheng, wee to our park with your girlfriend!
When the word girlfriend was heard, both Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing got startled. Zheng Lun looked up at her brother who nodded with a calm look and said, Thanks!
He did not correct the man. He had epted her as his girlfriend.
Zheng Lun was a bit nervous and shy. She was not used to speaking in front of outsiders, and was also afraid that their real rtionship would be discoveredter in the future and would be ridiculed.
She lowered her head and looked at the tip of her toes, fearing that the couple would remember what she looked like.
As if knowing the anxiety inside her heart, Zheng Jing brought her closer, trying to console her.
The woman showed great enthusiasm when she heard what Zheng Jing said. Your girlfriend is very beautiful. I have run this cherry park for so many years and have never seen such a pretty girl. You both look so cute together. And thats why, I will give you a 50% discount today. Officer Zheng Jing, only you will need to pay.
The price of entering the park was 48 yuan per person, making it 96 yuan for a couple.
When Zheng Jing heard about it, he suddenly realized that all his money had been given to Zhao Anan and he only had a few bills left in his pocket after the taxi fare, enough only for one person.
Good that Zheng Lun was exempted from paying, otherwise he would have been unable to pay today.
Zheng Jing would have been very embarrassed if he had to dy the payment on the first date with his beloved girl.
Zheng Jing thanked the couple and then took Zheng Lun into the park.
The cherry park was located on the top of a hill upying arge area. There were so many cherry trees that its boundary was not in sight.
It was a lovely day and the afternoon sun cast its shine upon the forest. The sunlight sprinkled through the green leaves andnded upon the brother and sister, making them feel warm.
Zheng Lun stayed close to her brothers side.
It was very quiet in the cherry park and the air was inundated with the scent of cherries.
Zheng Lun found the ce to be mesmerising, even more so because of the person whom she hade with.
Zheng Jing bent down and picked several cherries for Zheng Lun, every few steps he took.
Lets go inside and see if there are any sweeter fruits, since the ones on the boundary have been picked already.
Seeing Zheng Luns slightly flushed face, he could not help but sound indulgent.
With the cherries in her mouth, Zheng Lun smiled at him brightly. Sure, it is my first time, Brother, you can decide and I will follow. The cherries are so sweet, I definitely want more!
Chapter 562 - Irresistible Love (Part Three)
Chapter 562: Irresistible Love (Part Three)
Zheng Lun didnt get so happy usually, and Zheng Jing felt that he had made the right decision to bring her here. Beautiful nature would always help rx people and bring out their real side.
Seeing the happiness on his sisters face, Zheng Jing was quietly d too. Okay, I will pick them up for you so you can be well fed! Dont me me if your teeth turn sour.
He had been to the cherry park many times, because that was one of the activities the police department would always arrange for the officers for rxation. They had been to this ce this year, but when he was herest time, he did not find this ce so attractive. But now, every single bit of this ce was wonderful, even the cherries were exceptionally sweet.
Zheng Jing knew that the ce did not change nor did the environment, or the cherry trees, it was thepany.
He did not want to let go of her hand for even a single moment right now. This was all that they could do and that too outside home, because when they were back in the vi, they were again brother and sister.
The sweet taste of love had spread inside the couple. They cherished each other and this moment deeply. They did not desire for anything more, this brief happiness was already enough for them.
As the couple walked along, they ran into other people who hade to the park. Most of them were couples. Like Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing, they were also holding hands and feeding each other.
The hill was not very high, so Zheng Jing stopped when they reached halfway. He took Zheng Lun to a tall cherry tree and offered her the cherries.
Zheng Lun smiled softly, Brother, eat some too. I can pick my own. I have eaten so much but you have taken in very few.
Zheng Jing could not help but touch her smooth long hair and said softly, Okay, pick whichever one you want.
Zheng Lun spun happily under the tree. Brother, the cherries on the trees are different from those in the market. They are so sweet and fresh, very delicious!
Zheng Lun was dressed in a rosy dress with bubble leaves and a knee-long hem. As she spun, the dress floated up with her, showing a bit of her snowy white legs.
Zheng Jings eyes turned deep as he looked at this butterfly and he smiled at her.
If you like it, we cane here again soon. The cherries here will not fall out until July, and sometimes the cherries turn even riper,ter. We can eat them until the end of July.
Is that so? Zheng Lun was a bit surprised. Her beautiful eyes were sparkling with hope, making Zheng Jing feel excited as well.
That is wonderful! You must bring me here. I really like it here. I will draw a painting of this ce as soon as I get home.
Zheng Lun was very good at painting and it was a piece of cake for her to paint a cherry park.
Her voice sounded tender and full of obvious happiness. Zheng Jing felt a bit guilty not having brought her here earlier. Instead, he had taken her around to few murder sites which had frightened her and caused her nightmares.
He felt that he must have been extremely stupid.
Zheng Lun was not aware of her brothers guilt, so she picked up a handful of cherries, rushed to Zheng Jing and stuffed them one after another into his mouth.
She smiled softly with her head tilted. Are they sweet, Brother?
Very, and tasty too. Zheng Jing felt that he had never eaten an equally sweet cherry in his life. Could it have been because of the girl who picked them for him?
Pleased, Zheng Lun stood on the tip of her toes after feeding him, reaching out for some more.
As the jade-like fingers went into his mouth together with the red cherries, the scene looked wonderful.
Zheng Jing finished the cherries delivered to his lips, and could not help but gently kissed Zheng Luns fingers.
Zheng Lun felt as if she had been electrocuted, so she withdrew her hand instinctively, then looked around carefully. She let out a sigh of relief when no one was in sight, flushing.
Zheng Jing smiled and said, It is fine, nobody is here. It wont matter even if there is someone.
He sounded so sure that he did not even bother to hold back his words. Zheng Lun red at him weakly. Then, she turned around and continued looking for more cherries.
All the ripe cherries on the lower branches had been picked, and the sweet ones were hanging on the top.
But Zheng Lun was not tall enough to get those ripe, purple-colored cherries, not even on the tip of her toes.
She was trying hard to reach them when suddenly, she was lifted, startling her.
It is fine. Dont be scared. You can reach the best ones with me holding you up.
It was Zheng Jing who had lifted her from behind.
Zheng Lun had a weird sensation coursing through her body. She felt ticklish on her legs.
She panicked, and picked some cherries quickly. Then she said nervously, I am done, Brother, put me down.
Zheng Jing, as a matter of fact, was feeling even weirder to have her in his arms. He regretted it immediately after picking her up.
He might not be able to control himself if he got too close to her.
After hearing what Zheng Lun said, he put down Zheng Lun slowly, only to find her blushing.
Zheng Jing could not help but swallow back his saliva. He had one arm around Zheng Luns waist and the other taking one chery and putting it into Zheng Luns mouth, softly.
Zheng Luns heart beat very fast as she leaned against her brother. It felt as if her heart would pop out of her chest in the next moment.
As Zheng Jing fed her the cherry, she subconsciously took it in with her teeth, chewed them and spat out the core.
The red cherries and the rosy lips looked so lustful together against the sunlight.
Zheng Jings fingers softly spread over her enticing lips and then on her blushing face as if he was feeling the most treasured thing. He looked gentle, and full of love.
Zheng Lun got so nervous that her face heated up. But she stood motionlessly, looking straight into her brothers eyes.
She was so affected by her brothers touch that she just could not help but lean against Zheng Jing.
Seven, you are very beautiful.
With Zheng Luns face cupped in his hands, Zheng Jing whispered in her ear.
As Zheng Jings warm breath sprinkled over Zheng Luns ear, her white ears turned red as well.
His voice seemed to havee from the deepest corner of his heart, drowning her in it.
Zheng Luns heart skipped a beat.
Chapter 563 - Irresistible Love (Part Four)
Chapter 563: Irresistible Love (Part Four)
It was the second time for Zheng Jing to call her by her real name C Seven.
Brother...
Zheng Lun called out to him with a soft voice and her eyes were full of love.
Brother, brother...
She repeatedly kept saying it as if only by doing so, was she able to express the love hidden inside her heart.
Zheng Jings heart melted even further. Unable to control himself any more, he lowered his head and kissed the red lips which he had been longing for.
Zheng Luns throbbing heart seemed to stop at this very moment!
She was eager for her brothers kiss but was also scared that the more she got, the more she would desire.
Under the gorgeous cherry tree, Zheng Jing was passionately sucking and biting her tender lips. Soon, he nudged open her mouth wider with his tongue and reached out for its mate.
The scent and sweetness of cherries still lingered in her mouth, and Zheng Jing dived into that intoxicating feeling.
He had been suppressing his desire for too long now to behave rationally. As if he was possessed, he grabbed Zheng Luns waist and poured his unspent longing into her mouth.
Zheng Lun almost copsed under his kiss. Leaning against Zheng Jings chest feebly, her face had turned red again, and her breath was out of the usual rhythm.
She loved it when her brother kissed her.
But she was not experienced, so she only received Zheng Jings kiss rather than participating in it actively.
After a long time, Zheng Jing finally stopped.
Zheng Lun breathed anxiously and had her fingers ced over Zheng Jings chest, feeling his violent heartbeat.
She looked up with hazy eyes, and felt his handsome face with her soft fingers.
Brother, can you kiss me again, I enjoy it so much...
For some reason, Zheng Lun spilled out the words despite her shyness.
But, Zheng Jing instantlyplied.
Their lips were entwined and so were their bodies. They were clinging to each other, leaving no space in between.
Zheng Lun tried to kiss Zheng Jing back, but she was not skilled at all. But her naive attempts turned on Zheng Jing even more and nearly drove him crazy.
They were behaving like any normal couple in love.
After quite some time, Zheng Jing released Zheng Lun, but couldnt stay apart for even one more second. He kissed her once again.
Just as Zheng Lun liked his kisses, he liked kissing her too!
They were deep into it when another couple passed them by. Zheng Lun quickly buried her face into Zheng Jings chest.
Seeing a couple kissing passionately here, the other couple understood that they had interrupted them. So they left instantly.
As they were leaving, Zheng Lun could hear the man saying clearly to the girl, Darling, it is such a beautiful ce, what about us kissing somewhere too?
She became even more embarrassed. Seeing his sister who was behaving like an ostrich, Zheng Jing was no longer embarrassed by the fact that they had been seen kissing. Instead, he held Zheng Lun into his arms and kissed the top of her head, softly.
He wished that he could hold Zheng Lun like this throughout his life. If only the time could stop at this moment.
But time did not stop, not for anyone.
The day had turned dark already when Zheng Lun and her brother spent some more moments alone.
Reluctant, she said to her brother with a soft voice, Brother, lets go home.
Mother Zheng kept a strict eye on her and Zheng Jing, fearing that they would do something out of turn. That was why she had put the rule that Zheng Lun must return home before the day turned dark.
Zheng Jing had also got a strict warning from Mother Zheng, and was not allowed to spend time with Zheng Lun, alone.
Zheng Jing felt a bit bitter inside his heart, but he was also feeling very guilty.
Zheng Lun existed like his real sister, except that they were not blood rted.
But she had the same name, appearance and rtionship as his deceased sister. He had broken through the moral bottomline to have such an intimate rtionship with Zheng Lun.
Zheng Jing understood that his mother had made the right decision. Zheng Lun had reced her deceased daughter and became real for her. His father had the same opinion too.
He also knew that Zheng Lun also felt the same amount of pressure inside her heart, maybe even more than him. She was very worried that she would make her parents unhappy.
Zheng Jing adjusted her creased dress, held her hand and walked downhill. He paid the bill and then drove home.
When they arrived at home, it was dark outside already.
When Mother Zheng saw her children returning with a normal expression on their faces, she let out a sigh of relief.
Mother Zheng was called Pei Xinhua and she was from A City.
The Pei Family might not be as prestigious as the top ten in the city, yet it was a big family with several capable figures in each generation.
Pei Xinhua used to be a famous singer when she was young, but after she got married, she concentrated upon bringing up the children and taking care of her husband, drifting further and further away from the singing industry.
It was not until the two children grew up did Pei Xinhua started to manage what the family had given to her as well as the properties of the Zheng Family.
She was outgoing, enthusiastic and because of her role as the manager of thepany, she had be a bit intimidating, and many staff at thepany were scared of her.
But as a mother, she was excellent.
Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing were both brought up by her and were amazing children. Zheng Lun might be a bit timid and feeble, but under the supervision of Pei Xinhua, she had read numerous books and picked up several skills, including ying the piano, painting, singing and dancing. She was indeed a talented girl.
Pei Xinhua had be overly protective towards Zheng Lun after she lost her real daughter and was always worried that something would happen to Zheng Lun. She did not allow Zheng Lun to visit any dangerous ces as well.
That Zheng Lun was so timid right now was not only because of her past experience, but also because Pei Xinhua had been overly protective.
After Zheng Luns personality was cultivated, it was very difficult for her to change it. So Pei Xinhua had to keep protecting her until she was able to find a reliable husband who could keep her safe for the rest of her life.
Pei Xinhua believed that her daughter was perfect, so she had a very high standard towards her potential son-inw. He must be caring, kind and tolerant.
Chapter 564 - Blind Date
Chapter 564: Blind Date
And she needed her son-inw to have a good family, otherwise Zheng Lun would be miserable when she got married.
She had spoiled her daughter and brought her up like a princess. So she could never allow anyone to bully her.
Since her expectations were quite high, Pei Xinhua had only found three or four suitable ones in the past years. But Zheng Lun liked none of them and refused to even meet them.
But since the brother and the sister were going towards an improper direction, Pei Xinhua lowered her standard and thought that as long as the prospective man was moral, she would set them up.
She needed to stop feeling reluctant to let go of her daughter, because if she kept sharing the same roof with Zheng Jing, something was bound to happen sooner thanter and that would be terrible.
The best method was to find a caring husband for her daughter so she could be married as soon as possible.
While they were eating the dinner, Pei Xinhua noticed that her daughter was in a good mood, so she tested her by saying, Lun, do you want to go out for some fun one of these days?
Zheng Luns face stiffened and she turned a bit ufortable.
She had gone out with her brother on one asion. Did her mother know about it already, since she was asking her in this way?
She panicked, and looked up at Zheng Jing involuntarily, asking him for help.
Zheng Jing ignored her purposefully so as to avoid being suspected by their mother. Then he took a bite of the soup and said to Pei Xinhua with a calm look, Mom, are you going out with Lun? Why did you ask her but not me? You like her more. I want to go out and have fun too!
His nonchnt words brought Zheng Lun out of the daze, making the air much more rxed.
Pei Xinhua knocked at her sons head with chopsticks. Eat your food, I am talking with your sister, so shut up.
Zheng Lun now realized that Pei Xinhua was not aware of her trip with her brother today, and was asking randomly.
She looked up and smiled at Pei Xinhua. Are you asking me out to have fun, mom? If I am going out with you, I will!
Zheng Lun was simple-minded, but she had started to learn from the past situations.
Pei Xinhua had used the same trick before. She imed to take her out casually but they ended up going on a blind date with someone. Pei Xinhua would find an excuse to leave and get her and the man to be alone.
That was why Zheng Lun stressed that if she was with her, she would go. But if it was for something else, then she would note along.
Seeing her daughter not falling for her trap, Pei Xinhua did not get anxious. Instead, she put some food into her bowl and said, I am definitely going out with you, but there are some other peopleing along with us. You need to make new friends, you have too few at the moment.
Zheng Lun was worried that her mother would leave her with some strange man. She disliked blind dates, because she already had her Mr. Right inside her heart and she had no interest in wasting time or forcing herself to have a chat and a meal with a stranger.
She grabbed Pei Xinhuas arm and said in a spoiled tone, Mom, lets go out alone, not with anyone else. I am always at unease when I meet new people, alright?
Pei Xinhua got a bit soft-hearted when she heard her, but she had already promised the other side. What was more, Zheng Lun had very few male friends and she could not speak even a word with any man except for Zheng Jing.
She had made up her mind to take Zheng Lun for the blind date. But she needed to think carefully how to make it happen.
The guy had excellent prospects in every single way and was close to Zheng Luns age. He seemed to possess a good temper, as well. Pei Xinhua trusted the mans parents who were both professors at universities. They seemed to have high morals and were friendly and kind. If Zheng Lun became part of their family, she would not be miserable or bullied.
That family also was looking for a girl with a quiet personality rather than someone bossy.
Pei Xinhua thought that the two children fitted each other perfectly.
She was definitely going to get Zheng Lun to meet him. Maybe the blind date really will work out. But this time, she was going to stay with her daughter rather than leave her alone with the stranger. She was so timid that on herst blind date, she had been reduced to tears! That confused the guypletely. He had no idea what he had done wrong.
Blind dates were normal and happened all the time to single people. Some even got married and had children through this method.
Pei Xinhua had never expected that her daughter would hate blind dates so deeply and be so intimidated by other men.
She did not force Zheng Lun that night, but decided to have a good chat with her in a couple of days. She needed to prepare ahead of time. She was not in a hurry because the date with that family was after a week. She was just preparing her daughter for it.
Zheng Lun innocently thought that her mother gave up, but Zheng Jing had noticed that Pei Xinhua was taking slow steps so that the n could go forward little by little.
But Zheng Jing did not treat the blind date as something special, because he thought that there would not be any progress, just like before. What Zheng Lun would do at most was get a bit displeased.
What he did not know was that on this blind date, Zheng Lun swayed a little.
...
It was evening when Shangguan Ning along with her husband, and child were walking along the seaside.
Jing Yichen was pushing a stroller with Jing Rui sitting inside. He kept letting out some noise as if he were talking with his father.
But his weirdnguage did not get through to Master Jing whoughed at him, When will you be able to make an intelligent sound?
Shangguan Ning objected on behalf of her son. You werent able to make any sound when you were two months old, I believe!
Jing Yichen said confidently, I did not learn Chinese when I was little, I was learning English, so the sounds I uttered were actually abc!
Oh, so you were able to speak English when you were only 2 months old? Man, you have broken another world record!
Jing Yichen scratched his chin C maybe he had been too boastful just now.
Oh... I may have remembered it wrong!
Shangguan Ning could not help butugh loudly C it was not a usual sight to see Jing Yichen beaten!
Jing Yichenughed alongside her. He was always rxed and happiest when he was with Shangguan Ning.
They were talking and chatting with Tiger and his men following behind.
Jing Yichen was not being overly cautious, but he had noticed that there had been many strange faces in and around the Landscape Compound recently. The people who were taking a walk along the seaside lookedpletely unfamiliar.
Jing Yichen had already checked everyone who had moved into the Landscape Compound earlier, and even the management staff were his own people.
Chapter 565 - Kisses
Chapter 565: Kisses
Jing Yichen was able to remember things after a single nce. He remembered the face of every resident who was in the Landscape Compound after living here for so long.
The beach was located slightly outside the city, so most of the people who came to take a walk here were mostly the residents of Landscape Compound. It was normal that some strange faces appeared every now and then, but new strangers every single day made it stand out.
Luckily, those people were just here to observe how they lived their life, not to take their lives. Otherwise Jing Yichen would not have dared to bring Shangguan Ning and Jing Rui out for a walk.
These people were all from the Tang Family. Jing Yichen had already umted enough information about the Tang Family and was forming a siege so as to take hold of these people at one go, erasing all possibleplications which could arise out of itter.
The Tang Family owned a group of mafias who were not in A City. So it was almost impossible for them to control the Jing Family.
Jing Yichen had not yet found out what made the Tang Family hate him so deeply. Probably it was because after the Tang Family betrayed the Jing Family, the Jing Family crushed them or maybe it was because of something else.
He had offended and killed numerous people in his life. Same went for Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan.
It was not possible to avoid assassinations and bloodshed when a powerful empire grew.
It was very normal that there were enemies and Jing Yichen had many, many enemies to face.
However, those who dared to intend to kill him were only Yang Muyan and the Tang Family. The rest of the enemies only fought with him in business rather than attacking him or his family.
Jing Yichen had managed to take control of some part of the Tang Familys forces based on the clues which Jing Yiran had given him. In a couple of days, the strange faces on the beach would all be gone.
After they took a walk alongside the sea, the parents and the child went back home. The wind was quite strong and Jing Rui may catch a cold.
Shangguan Ning coaxed Jing Rui to sleep and Jing Yichen led Tiger and his men into the study.
He would not allow any outsiders to take over his territory.
Every time when Jing Yichen took a walk with his family, he would get very angry when he found his wife and child being stared at by those people.
But they were now in a very precarious bnce. Jing Yichen would not kill those people of his own ord, nor did his enemy start a fight with him.
Therefore, before he was fully sure of the situation, Jing Yichen would not start the war.
But in the past two days, Jing Yichen had already made headway in the investigation and he could now start to remove part of the enemys force.
Tiger, get the men ready for action. Those men hired by the Tang Family are not especially loyal to them, so just drive them away. But the loyal arms of the Tang Family must be killed as soon as possible. There are twelve of them on this list. Get them all tomorrow!
Jing Yichen sounded cold. It did not matter to him any more why they had caught him and tortured him earlier. What mattered was that these people had to die, now!
Tiger responded instantly, Yes, Master. Dont worry, none of them will survive!
Jing Yichen nodded calmly and then turned to Lee Duo and Knife Lee. Keep Ning and Jing Rui safe in the uing days. There may be danger lurking around the corner. I will tell Ning to stay at home for the next few days.
Lee Duo said in a low voice, Dont worry Master, we will keep thedy and Master Junior safe and sound.
Knife Lee did not say anything, but he nodded as well.
Shangguan Ning was weaving an enormous andplicated n against Zhao Anan whilst Jing Yichen was making one against the Tang Family. The difference was that Jing Yichen needed to be part of the n, too.
If he did not get involved, the enemy would not exert all his efforts and he would not be able to remove all of his forces in one go.
Jing Yichen rearranged the n and did not leave the study until midnight.
In the bedroom, Shangguan Ning was lying on the bed, with her legs dangling on the ground. The floor light and bedside light were on, and she was reading some documents. Liyu Science and Technology was about to getunched and she had to go through theseplicated figures.
Seeing Jing Yichen entering the room, she put aside the documents and reached out for him.
Jing Yichen smiled, and came to her side in long strides. He kissed her hard on the lips as he whispered, You have been waiting all this time for a hug?
Shangguan Ning blinked and switched on her sweet voice as she slipped her hands across his broad waist. I want kisses too!
I just gave one.
No, that one doesnt count. That was before I told you. Now I have said it, so I need some more!
You have made it really clear, right?
Shangguan Ning got furious. Are you kissing me or not!
Jing Yichen teased her purposefully. What if I am not?
Shangguan Ning leaned forward and bit his lips. She said gleefully, Then I can kiss you. You are good-looking enough for me to do so!
Jing Yichen lowered his head and gave her a very deep kiss.
As their tongues and lips were tangled together, the atmosphere became intense.
Jing Yichen found himself breathing heavily, but he still remembered to tell Shangguan Ning the important thing first. Baby, stay at home in the next few daysand do not go anywhere. I am going to get the Tang Family out of our life and they may strike back.
Shangguan Ning stared at him with a pair of clear eyes and said with a soft voice, I understand. I am not going anywhere. I will be staying at home with my son, waiting for you. You must be careful too. Dont take risks.
Yes, I wont.
He answered her in an unsteady voice.
It was turning quite hot in the bedroom, where the bodies were tangled together. The flirty movement reached its peak against the faint light.
The following morning, Jing Yichen got up with a fresh mind, but Shangguan Ning failed to rise at all. She had been taken by Jing Yichen far too many times to not feel pain in her body.
Seeing his wifes charming face and the grudging look, Jing Yichen could not help but get delighted. He gave a deep kiss to his wife and left with Tiger.
Shangguan Ning never slept in, and with Jing Rui here, she would not allow herself to bezy.
Although she felt sore, she got up, and tidied herself. Then she bathed Jing Rui along with the nanny.
Jing Rui enjoyed bathing a lot and that made Shangguan Ning very surprised.
Every time he was having a bath, he would giggle.
The introverted nanny did not like talking. But she took great care of Jing Rui. She was also quite delighted to see Jing Rui giggling. She had taken care of many babies before, but most of them did not like being bathed and they would always wail as they touched water. It was the first time for her to see a baby like Jing Rui who liked being bathed.
It is a good thing that Master Junior likes it. An old saying goes that such babies tend to be exceptionally healthy.
Bathing removed filth, so old people tended to think that a child who liked being bathed would be exceptionally strong because he did not have any dirt on him.
Chapter 566 - Trust
Chapter 566: Trust
Shangguan Ning did not understand what made Jing Rui like water so much. Was it because she had been submerged in water for a long time just before childbirth?
It seemed that Jing Rui would want to learn swimming as he grew a bit older.
Mi Xiaoxiao arrived when Jing Rui was being bathed.
Lee Duo opened the door for Mi Xiaoxiao, after speaking with Shangguan Ning through walkie-talkie.
It was the first time for Mi Xiaoxiao to visit Shangguan Ning at her home. She had not dared to pay the visit before. Even though she was in a good rtionship with Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen was still the president of Jingsheng Enterprise. So she was not quite into meeting the cold leader at his residence.
She came here today only because she knew that he was not at home.
Shangguan Ning came to greet her from the bathroom and gave her a hug. Director Mi, wee, wee! You have brightened up my poor home.
Mi Xiaoxiao smiled brightly, Deputy -President Shangguan, have you promoted me to the position of a director? Thank you so much. You are so nice!
Shangguan Ning smiled even more brightly, I am sorry. My mistake, you are still a Deputy Director!
Bah, stingy! Why am I still a deputy when I have such a strong contact? What a waste of my face!
Mi Xiaoxiaoined as she pulled out an invoice from her small purse and gave it to Shangguan Ning. This is the invoice from my blind datest time. Deputy President, I needpensation!
Shangguan Ning got slightly startled. She took it and found that it was the invoice of the lunch which she had with Mu Qing.
Sheughed. You paid the bill! What was Mu Qing thinking? Dont worry, You will definitely get thepensation for this lunch. I will go to Mu Qing to ask for money. It is the money he spent to court his woman.
That sounds just right! Mi Xiaoxiao showed a bright smile and then looked around. Where is our president-to-be of Jingsheng Enterprise? I am going to take a picture with him now so I can get popr when he grows up and bes the president!
Shangguan Ning was amused and took her to the bathroom with a smile, President Junior is taking a bath now. You are lucky, you can get his naked picture.
Mi Xiaoxiao was amused as well. Are you really his mother? You just asked me to take his naked picture! I may even ckmail you with it. But I am not taking a picture with him. I may be demoted or thrown out if the president gets to know about it!
She was just joking about taking a picture. Jing Rui was young but his identity was hidden. His pictures could never be leaked.
Before Jing Yichen took over Jingsheng Enterprise, no one knew his appearance, and even his age had been kept confidential.
She could not take pictures, but could still look at him and pinch him. Jing Yichen was not at home at the moment, and with Shangguan Ning around, she could y with this little fellow to her hearts content.
Mi Xiaoxiao squatted down and observed Jing Rui for a while before blurting out. Do you think that the President also took a bath like this when he was little?
What a strange topic was she talking about? Shangguan Ning had thought that she was going to speak highly of Jing Rui.
She said with embarrassment, You can go and ask the earlier president. He would know about it.
Mi Xiaoxiao shivered out of fright. No, no, no, I was just saying that. The old president is even more powerful and intimidating than the current president, and I am very frightened as a minor employee.
Before Jing Yichen took over the office, Mi Xiaoxiao had already been working at Jingsheng Enterprise, so she had seen Jing Zhongxiu before. She always thought that Jing Zhongxiu was the scarier one, even though he looked slightly more easygoing than Jing Yichen.
After Jing Rui was bathed and fed, he fell asleep. Mi Xiaoxiao said with jealousy, A child has the best life in the world C eating and sleeping and not needing to worry about getting fat!
You can also try this pig-like lifestyle! Shangguan Ning teased her. Mi Xiaoxiao could eat a lot, but she never got fat. That was what made many staff at Jingsheng Enterprise jealous.
As Shangguan Ning was talking, she got up and ced Jing Rui back in his baby room in case her talk with Mi Xiaoxiao would wake him up.
Mi Xiaoxiao threw a reluctant look at Jing Rui as she mumbled. It is not that bad to be a pig. He can eat and sleep, and no stress. How happy!
Shangguan Ning took her to the living room, sat down and said with a smile, You have stress? You are unhappy?
Mi Xiaoxiao stuffed the grapes from the table into her mouth and said with a muffled voice, Yes. Mother keeps urging me to get married. What is so good about being married? You will have to take care of the husband and the child and if the iws are still alive, you will have to pretend to be a nice daughter-inw. That would make me turn ugly in a couple of days itself.
Then you will stay single for your entire life? Shangguan Ning red at her. Your mother is thinking for your sake. If you are married, then someone can take care of you. You dont have to take care of anyone.
Mi Xiaoxiao was eating grapes when something suddenly hit her. She said excitedly, Oh yes, I do have eyes on someone. He is very suitable as a husband!
Oh? Who is it?
Mu Qing!
Get out. He is taken already!
What about mepeting with Zhao Anan? Lets see which of us can get the man in the end. I saw what happened to Zhao Anan yesterday. I am quite confident!
Mi Xiaoxiao looked proud and then Shangguan Ning struck hard on her back.
Any more nonsense and I will throw you out!
Shangguan Ning looked annoyed, but Mi Xiaoxiao understood that she was not really angry.
She could not help but get slightly surprised. How can you trust me so much? Arent you worried that I will grab Mu Qing? He is indeed handsome and excellent, isnt it normal that I fall for him?
Shangguan Ning threw a calm look at her. I know you well. Mu Qing is not your type.
Shangguan Ning believed that nothing would happen between Mi Xiaoxiao and Mu Qing. She knew that Mi Xiaoxiao was not interested in excellent men. Also, she was a woman with principles, so she would not grab someone elses boyfriend, unless it was a deed done out of revenge.
Mi Xiaoxiao had a rich experience in love affairs. She changed boyfriends very fast. So she had turned numb towards fickle love, and would not get moved by someone so easily.
Mu Qing was outstanding but not excellent enough for Mi Xiaoxiao to be interested in. All of her boyfriends were good-looking and she even had rtionships with several male stars, so she was immune towards good looks but honest and good-natured men might be suitable for her.
For example, Tiger.
Chapter 567 - Stalking
Chapter 567: Stalking
Mi Xiaoxiao felt very pleased when her good friend trusted her so deeply.
Since you trust me so much, I will leave Mu Qing alone.
Actually, she had meant to ask where the honest-looking guy, who picked them upst time with the Rolls-Royce car troop was, but she hesitated and did not ask in the end.
Tiger was obviously Jing Yichens man. It would be best not to irritate him.
Shangguan Ning knew that Mi Xiaoxiao would not have any feelings for Mu Qing. She might look like someone who enjoyed seducing men, but actually, she was colder than anyone else.
After she was emotionally hurt, she believed that no man was reliable.
Shangguan Ning reached out for Mi Xiaoxiaos face and said with a smile, You have helped me so much. I will definitely set you up with someone great. You are not young anymore and should get married, too. I will stand with your mother to help you with your marriage!
Mi Xiaoxiao got startled. Please dont! My mother is enough for me and together, the both of you would definitely drive me crazy. I dont want to get married now. It is nice to be single, because I can toy with many good-looking guys. Look at you, so boring and having to stay at home and watch over the baby!
You wont say so after you have a child. Taking care of a child may consume energy, but watching him grow up is so much more fun than anything else. Also, if everyone has the same idea as you, mankind will go extinct.
Shangguan Ning shook her head and made up her mind to find someone suitable for Mi Xiaoxiao.
Mi Xiaoxiao did not have any preference towards a mans look. She preferred men who were honest and straightforward, one without too many love affairs.
But Shangguan Ning had not yet got a proper match for her in her head yet, so she did not linger on this issue. She needed to deal with Zhao Anans problem right now.
She told Mi Xiaoxiao about what was going to happen next. Upon hearing it, Mi Xiaoxiao showed a foxy smile and said, Dont worry, I am the best at it!
After she got her mission, Mi Xiaoxiao checked the time and left. Shangguan Ning wanted her to stay for lunch but she disagreed. So Shangguan Ning gave up in the end.
Eating lunch with Shangguan Ning was not a problem, but eating with Jing Yichen might make Mi Xiaoxiao suffer from indigestion.
Shangguan Ning escorted her out till the elevator before going back in.
But the moment she entered her apartment, the elevator door opened again. Mi Xiaoxiao came back to the door and asked Lee Duo, Dude, where is Tiger?
Lee Duo got slightly startled and then suddenly turned alert.
Tiger had gone to the Tang Family today with Jing Yichen and that was confidential information. What was Mi Xiaoxiao thinking when she enquired about Tiger?
He is not here. Lee Duo spat out briefly and then turned to look elsewhere, ignoring Mi Xiaoxiao.
If Mi Xiaoxiao had not been Shangguan Nings friend, he would not have said this much also. Tigers movements were not public knowledge because his whereabouts would reveal Jing Yichens.
Mi Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes.
Of course she knew Tiger was not here. Why would she ask him if he were standing here?
But she did not pry any further, because this man was apparently not going to tell her. She had wanted to have a chat with Tiger but now it wasnt going to happen.
The moment Mi Xiaoxiao left, Lee Duo gave the order that Mi Xiaoxiaos background should be checked thouroughly.
Although Mi Xiaoxiao had already been checked and cleared earlier, they needed to know if any information was omitted or if she recently joined some force, because then she would be a danger.
Mi Xiaoxiao who was driving out of the Landscape Compound didnt know that just because she asked about Tiger, her background was under intense scrutiny. Her family background, her work experience and old boyfriends were all revealed and there were as many as over 200 names on that list.
Mi Xiaoxiao was not aware that her love rtionships wereid bare open and the list was going to be passed on to Tiger. But she was aware that she was being stalked at the moment.
The stalker was so unprofessional that Mi Xiaoxiao easily discovered her. It was none other than Zhao Anan.
In the meanwhile, she also received Shangguan Nings text C the bait is on hook, the rest depends on you!
Zhao Anan was sitting in a taxi and spoke to the driver nervously, Sir, follow that red BMW ahead of us!
Dont worry, I am good at following cars. The driver was very confident about his stalking technique. Zhao Anan had given him a 100 yuan tip and of course, he must work hard enough to impress her.
Zhao Anan was sure that she had not caught the wrong person, as she saw the BMW and the license te.
She had called Zheng Jing early in the morning and asked him to check the car information of Mu Qings new girlfriend.
Zheng Jing took over the mission and an hourter, he gave her the car type and the license number of Mi Xiaoxiaos car and even told her about Mi Xiaoxiaos current location.
So Zhao Anan sneaked out of the home and took a taxi with the money she had taken from Zheng Jing.
Mi Xiaoxiao drove slowly.
She took some roundabouts and then went to the Mus Hospital.
Zhao Anan was very familiar with the road towards the Mus Hospital, so she got annoyed when she saw Mi Xiaoxiao heading towards there. She felt as if fire was burning inside her.
She knew that Mu Qing must have fallen for that foxy bitch.
They were on a blind date yesterday and now she was going towards the hospital!
Where did they go after they finished the lunch yesterday?
Zhao Anan cursed them inwardly but then thought that Mu Qing would not fool around with that foxy bitch.
She had known Mu Qing for so many years and knew his personality well. He might like teasing some pretty girls, or even flirting with them, yet he had never done anything over the top.
A mans personality could not possibly change instantly.
Even if Mu Qing was in a close rtionship with that pretty woman and Zhao Anan was very furious, she still believed that Mu Qing would not roll on the bedsheets with her so fast.
But it seemed that they were in a good rtionship, otherwise Mu Qing would not have asked the woman to see him at the hospital.
This was where Mu Qing worked. If she showed up there, then it meant that he was announcing to the hospital that he had a girlfriend!
Mi Xiaoxiao entered the hospital, and parked the car. She grabbed the purse and swayed her rear beautifully, walking through the automatic door of the hospital on her high-heels.
Chapter 568 - Tired or Not?
Chapter 568: Tired or Not?
Mi Xiaoxiao threw a calm look at Zhao Anan who was hidden in the taxi through the door, then smiled brightly.
This Zhao Anan was a lot of fun. She cared a great deal about Mu Qing but pretended as if she did not. Was she asking for trouble for herself?
What if Mu Qing really had a change of heart, she would have nowhere left to shed her tears? How stupid!
Mi Xiaoxiao was wearing an elegant smile on her face and came to the lobby of the Mus Hospital.
She was wearing a sapphire short sleeved Chanel dress and a pair of Prada sunsses. She was carrying a Hermes silk scarf around her neck and thetest version of Gi bag in her hand. A pair of white Ferragamo high heels were on the feet.
She looked dazzling with those luxurious brands on her.
Normally, Mi Xiaoxiao would not show off so much, but Shangguan Ning had requested that she should be dressed in this way when she came to the hospital. So she had to bring out every luxurious thing that she had at home.
She stood at the counter of the lobby, drawing numerous looks from all directions. Ignoring them, Mi Xiaoxiao said with amanding tone from her red lips, Where is Mu Qing? Tell him that his girlfriend is here to meet him.
A minuteter, everyone at the hospital knew that Mu Qing, the former Director of the hospital, had got a new girlfriend. She was extremely beautiful and wealthy, and she was better looking than any female doctors or nurses at the hospital.
Five minutester, Mu Qing came to fetch Mi Xiaoxiao and led her to his office with a bright smile.
Mi Xiaoxiao threw a nce at the taxi outside the hospital and let out a sigh.
What was Zhao Anan doing?
Was she being calm or was she being timid?
Mi Xiaoxiao had been with many different kinds of guys, but she had never met any man who could make so many sacrifices for a woman.
Or maybe she was not charming enough?
All in all, she did not believe in love and did not think that someone would wait for a person to change her mind for so long.
Love required a mutual cooperation of both sides, and if only one person was involved, then it was unrequited.
She heard from Shangguan Ning that Mu Qing had been waiting for Zhao Anan for eleven years now.
Mi Xiaoxiao could not believe this when she heard it for the first time.
Yes, eleven years was a long period for a man who could only live a few dozen years. There was no man in the world who would spend eleven years of youth waiting for a woman who would never change her mind.
That was not called devotion. It was stupidity!
Shangguan Ning had not told Mi Xiaoxiao about Zhao Anans disease. For one thing, that was Zhao Anans personal matter, and for another, she was not sick right now but quite healthy, at least at the moment.
So Mi Xiaoxiao did not feel that setting up Zhao Anan was anything bad. On the contrary, she felt that Shangguan Ning was being too merciful.
Even if Shangguan Ning had not arranged for her to put on a show with Mu Qing, there would be other women in Mu Qings life who might reach out to him.
Mu Qing was an outstanding man and it was not strange if many girls courted him.
Even an experienced woman like her would want to reach out to him, let alone those innocent girls who might fall for him very easily.
If Zhao Anan did not want such a good man, there were many who would desire him.
Mi Xiaoxiao was right.
There were many girls who were courting Mu Qing. There were numerous beautiful nurses and female doctors at the Mus Hospital, and those who worked there tended to be capable and knowledgeable, sometimes good-looking too.
Many people knew that Mu Qing liked Zhao Anan and it was not a secret.
But that did not bring the confidence of the doctors and the nurses down! Instead, they were all inspired, because in their eyes, Zhao Anan did not like Mu Qing and was not gentle and kind as what a woman was supposed to be. So they did not think that it would be difficult to beat Zhao Anan.
There had been many nurses at the Mus Hospital who had courted Mu Qing for years, and some female doctors even tried to enhance their medical skills so that they would be able to discussplicated medical issues with Mu Qing and create a better image inside his heart. Mu Qing was always indulgent towards people with great medical skills.
He also had quite a following amongst his female patients, including beautiful models and actresses.
He was a warm-hearted man with an open-minded personality, happy and talkative, skilled and professional.
Marrying him would definitely lead to a lifetime of happiness!
Few people were as silly as Zhao Anan. The women were smart and when they saw Zhao Anan pushing Mu Qing away, they gave her a helping hand.
For example, they would conceal Mu Qings routine and forget about Zhao Anans messages to be passed onto him. They would also kind-heartedly inform Mu Qing about what trouble Zhao Anan had caused.
He would have copsed had it not been for his determination.
He was also a normal man who could get tired. He could not possibly court Zhao Anan all the time.
But even if he was tired, he would not fall for any other woman, and that was why Zhao Anan was always in an advantageous ce.
But Mi Xiaoxiaos appearance had shocked all of Mu Qings pursuers.
In everyones eyes, Zhao Anan had not been apetitor, but Mi Xiaoxiao looked like a strong rival.
As Mi Xiaoxiao was standing by the window in Mu Qings office and looked at the taxi parked at the roadside, she asked out of curiosity, Mu Qing, do you and zhao Anan have any misunderstandings? You have been running back and forth for way too long!
Mu Qing gave her a cup of tea and took one for himself before saying with a smile, No misunderstandings. She is a bit childish and likes making trouble. As for me running back and forth... I never knew that I could hold on for so long.
Mi Xiaoxiao threw a startled look at Mu Qing. She had thought that Mu Qing would utter some vows which he had made for Zhao Anan, but not honest words like this.
But the more honest his words were, the more trustworthy Mu Qing was.
She had heard many sweet vows but nonested long.
So Mi Xiaoxiao admired Mu Qing even more, now.
Arent you tired?
Very. Mu Qing smiled and answered calmly, But I only need a short pause to gain back the passion for Anan.
Chapter 569 - Comparison and Difference
Chapter 569: Comparison and Difference
Mi Xiaoxiao fell silent and looked at Mu Qing in concern.
She was a smart girl, and could guess that there must have been something else going on between Mu Qing and Zhao Anan because of which this couple in deep love, had been in such a state for so many years.
Mi Xiaoxiao had agreed to help them because of Shangguan Ning earlier, but now, she wanted to do it for Mu Qing.
There were not so many nice men in the world but Mu Qing happened to be one of them. So, Mi Xiaoxiao hoped that his wish coulde true and he would live happily with the woman whom he had been in love with for eleven years.
She suddenly smiled and said, I have a feeling that Shangguans n will work out sessfully!
Mu Qing smiled brightly and gentleness reflected from his dark-brown eyes. It would be great if the n works out, but even if it doesnt, I have decided that I will always keep Ananpany.
...
Zhao Anan had be very anxious waiting outside the building, but she did not dare to enter the hospital. Every member of the staff at the hospital knew her and Mu Qing would be aware of her existence the moment she entered the building.
She did not want Mu Qing to know that she was stalking his girlfriend. She must keep it hidden.
So, she just waited outside the building.
The hospital had coated windows, so the people inside could see the view outside the building but the outsiders could not see anything inside.
So even if Zhao Anan looked up at Mu Qings office, she could see nothing.
What she did not know was that Mu Qing was looking at her through theyered ss.
After an hour of waiting, she almost fell asleep in the taxi and then she saw Mi Xiaoxiaoing out of the hospital with a sway of her hips.
And on Mi Xiaoxiaos top, was Mu Qings cream-colored patterned shirt.
Mu Qing stayed by her side and opened the car door for her with a smile on the face, sending her into the car with a hand over her head.
They looked so happy together!
Zhao Anan got furious. She was no longer sleepy.
Opening the door was Mu Qings habitual behavior.
He always did that and Zhao Anan had witnessed his behavior many times before, but she had never thought of it as a big deal. But now, she was observing Mi Xiaoxiao with prejudice, so no matter what Mu Qing did for her, she found Mi Xiaoxiao annoying and felt that the couple was already in a sweet rtionship.
Mu Qing was not wearing the white gown, but a casual wine colored shirt and grey striped pants as well as a pair of ck leather shoes. This was not what Mu Qing would normally wear. Dressed in this way, he looked a little bit more charming.
Because of his fair skin, the wine colored shirt made him look radiant.
Zhao Anan got a bit startled.
Mu Qing could not have bought all this, because it was not his style. He always preferred light colored clothes and shoes. He would never have put on any ck or red ones.
She had seen all of Mu Qings clothes and none of what he was wearing right now had been seen by her earlier. Also, the clothes and shoes looked brand new!
That was to say... this woman bought this outfit for Mu Qing!
Zhao Anan felt both distressed and saddened at the sight of Mu Qing who had a different look about him.
She suddenly realized that after knowing Mu Qing for so many years and being in such a close rtionship with him, she had never bought a new outfit for Mu Qing ever.
And this woman had known him for only one day, and she was able to make Mu Qing look totally different. She had done better than Zhao Anan ever did for him!
After theparison, Zhao Anan suddenly realized that she had done nothing for Mu Qing in the past eleven years except making trouble constantly.
When she saw Shangguan Ning buying clothes for Jing Yichen earlier, she had no special feeling towards that behavior, and never thought about buying any outfit for Mu Qing. Even when Shangguan Ning urged her to do so, she had not taken it seriously.
Now she finally understood what Shangguan Ning had done was right and that she had never given importance to the small things in life.
She always felt that Mu Qing, who was already a grown man, should be able to buy clothes for himself and would not need her care.
But that was not the point. When she saw Mu Qing being taken care of by someone else and getting clothes from another woman, she felt so jealous!
Zhao Anan suddenly felt that maybe it would be a great thing if Mu Qing married another woman, instead. He will have a better marital life with someone else than with her.
She would definitely not be as kind and careful as the other woman.
If she had been Mu Qings parent, she would not have allowed him to marry someone who could do nothing for him and who could die any time.
Standing in front of Mi Xiaoxiaos car, Mu Qing slightly bent his back and said to Mi Xiaoxiao. Ms. Mi, thank you for helping out. I am sorry for what happened yesterday. I left in a hurry and forgot to pay for the meal. I will definitely treat you to a better meal next time.
Mi Xiaoxiao put on the sunsses and stretched out her hand towards Mu Qing without looking at him and said, No thanks, just give me the money!
Ah?
Mu Qing was startled. He had never expected that Mi Xiaoxiao would act in this way and ask for money. Wasnt she afraid that she would be humiliated in front of him? He had already told her that he would make it upter.
What are you sighing for? Give me the money now. The meal cost 4,600 yuan yesterday and with interest, please give me 5,000 yuan. I am helping you here and am not going to pay for your mistake.
This was so straightforward!
Mu Qing instantly revised his assessment about Mi Xiaoxiao but that made himfortable and pleased, because he did not like pretentious people. He preferred those with straightforward personality. That was why he liked Zhao Anan.
He scooped out his wallet and counted the bills. He said with embarrassment, I am sorry, I only have 1,200 yuan in cash. What about you taking this much for the time being. I will pay the restter.
Mi Xiaoxiao removed her sunsses and gave Mu Qing a teasing look. This is amon way for a man to court a woman C always looking for the next time. It means a second date!
Mu Qing was dumbfounded!
No, no, that is not what I meant. No one has 5,000 yuan cash in their wallets all the time. What about you leaving the bank ount details with me and I will transfer the money to you?!
Jesus Christ! What made this girl so confident? Too many pursuers?
Sweat trickled down alongside Mu Qings forehead and he found that no woman was easy to deal with. Look at Zhao Anan, Shangguan Ning and Mi Xiaoxiao, all of them were so difficult to handle. Zheng Lun must be the only one who would not cause trouble for Zheng Jing. She was gentle, obedient and kind. God, how lucky Zheng Jing was.
Well, no. Do I look like someone who is poor?
If you were not poor, what are you asking me for money then?!
Mu Qing replied, No, no, you are not poor. You are just mental!
Chapter 570 - Who Is the Troublemaker?
Chapter 570: Who Is the Troublemaker?
Forget it. For Shangguans sake, I wont put you in a sticky situation. Keep the rest for your girlfriend as my apology gift. Dont forget to invite me as a guest in your wedding. Hopefully you would have cleared the misunderstanding with Zhao Anan by that time, otherwise she would think that I am a troublemaker!
Mu Qing could not remain furious with the person who was helping him get Zhao Anan to marry him.
That was his biggest happiness.
So he forgave Mi Xiaoxiao for making trouble.
Sure, you muste then! Mu Qing looked delighted. He had never felt that marrying Zhao Anan was just around the corner, until this moment.
He threw a look at the taxi which was slightly far from where he was standing. He could not see Zhao Anans expression, but could imagine how furious Zhao Anan must be right now.
He smiled and felt that Zhao Anan wasing closer to him. In the past, she had never cared about him being so friendly with other women.
But yesterday, she got so badly jealous.
It felt great that his beloved girl was worked up with all this, so he no longer hated this wine colored shirt on him.
He genuinely liked light-colored outfits rather than this over the top kind. This was more Jing Yirans color! When Shangguan Ning got this shirt delivered to him yesterday, he seriously suspected that this originally had belonged to Jing Yiran.
Alright, alright... Mi Xiaoxiao nodded nonchntly, put on her Prada sunsses and said with a bright smile on her face, I am leaving now! I am going to put on another show in a short while. I bet that when I finish the performance, your girlfriend wille to you. Remember to grab the opportunity. Hahah, Shangguan is indeed a talented person. What an idea she hase up with!
Having said the words, she shut the door and dashed off in her dazzling BMW.
Mu Qing was startled by how fast she drove. What an unsteady woman, almost like Zhao Anan who was so jumpy. He had made a mistake on their first meeting by thinking that she was a calm woman.
Zhao Anan, for the very first time in her life, did not get jumpy.
She stared at a radiant looking Mu Qing for a while and then asked the driver to catch up with the BMW.
After driving for sometime, Mi Xiaoxiao slowed down and waited for Zhao Anan to catch up with her.
She did not go far, and after fifteen minutes or so, she parked the car in front of a cafe.
She threw a nce at the taxi that had stopped behind, smiled proudly and walked into the cafe.
Zhao Anan did not get off the taxi until Mi Xiaoxiao entered the ce. Then she followed in.
She asked the driver to stay put. She gave him 200 yuan and made sure that he did not drive away. When Mi Xiaoxiao came out again, she would not be able to catch up with that woman if she wanted to.
The cafe was very quiet with only a couple of guests in there. Among them, there was a fine looking guy sitting at a round table.
Seeing Mi Xiaoxiao enter the cafe, the guy smiled in surprise and asked her to sit down next to him like a gentleman.
Zhao Anan could not help but get a bit suspicious as she saw this.
What was going on?
Could this foxydy be on a blind date with someone else?!
Zhao Anan assumed that Mi Xiaoxiao did not know her, so she did not try to hide and sat down in front of Mi Xiaoxiao. She ordered a cup of cappino, a slice of Tiramisu and started to eat it happily.
Zhao Anan had been very hungry all this while, and kept stuffing food into her mouth, not caring about her image.
As she was eating the moist Tiramisu and drinking the delicious coffee, she suddenly felt that being rich was great and she needed to get some more money.
She had be so poor that she needed to rob a bank!
Seeing Zhao Anan eating so much food, Mi Xiaoxiao swallowed hard.
She was hungry as well! She was starving after working so hard the entire morning.
She caught hold of the guys arm and said in a very sweet voice, Darling, I am so hungry, can we eat something here?
The guy almost copsed by her sweet words, so he said instantly, Of course, baby! Waitress! Bring me the menu.
Zhao Anan looked at her disdainfully when she heard their conversation.
Indeed, this foxy bitch was terrible, always eating with some guy and showing her lusty side. She even called him darling! Zhao Anan suspected that she might have addressed Mu Qing in this way before.
Zhao Anan got extremely furious when she thought of this.
What kind of woman had the Mu Family found for Mu Qing? This woman did not look like being on a first date with this guy. It seemed that they were in a rtionship already.
Why had she gone on a blind date with Mu Qing when she already had a boyfriend? Shame on her!
Zhao Anan would have gone and hit her if she had been her old self.
But after being imprisoned for half a year, she had changed a little and started to be more understanding than before. She had realized that she should care more about her mother, grandmother and other people, rather than take everything from others. She also understood that she must learn to be less impulsive.
Being impulsive would only lead to trouble. So she controlled her urge and decided to see what was going on between these two.
She had been thinking that if this woman was nice, she would give them her blessing, so that Mu Qing could have aplete and happy family.
But it seemed that this woman was not at all reliable.
This foxy bitch was seducing many men at one time and Mu Qing needed to be informed about it.
When the waitress heard the guy, she came to them.
But what greeted Zhao Anans ears were Mi Xiaoxiaosints.
I dont want this one, it is too sweet!
I dont want this one, it is too salty!
Cream bread? Is that food? It is full of fat that it can only be pig food!
Curry chicken? Is this a restaurant or a cafe?
Dont you have anything special here? Why is everything so boring?!
The waitresss face twisted as she stood next to them.
But the good looking guy did not find anything wrong with Mi Xiaoxiaos words, and he alsoined about the ce being not good enough.
After Mi Xiaoxiao criticized all the dishes on the menu, she suddenly pointed at the Tiramisu in front of Zhao Anan and said, I want that one!
Chapter 571 - Learning from the Foxy Bitch
Chapter 571: Learning from the Foxy Bitch
Zhao Anan wanted to smash the te on Mi Xiaoxiaos charming face.
She had never run into such a troublemaker. She had thought that she was bad, but someone was apparently worse than her.
She must be very annoying and picky in other aspects too.
Zhao Anan was sure that Mu Qing would never like this kind of girl.
She finished the rest of the Tiramisu quickly, drank her coffee despite it being hot, and walked out of the cafe.
As she walked out, she saw Mi Xiaoxiao kissing the guys face, through the window.
What a shameless woman!
Just wait and see, she would definitely not allow Mu Qing to hang with this kind of a woman.
Seeing Zhao Anan leave in the taxi, Mi Xiaoxiao could not help but smile.
The guy held her soft hand and smiled. Baby, how did I do just now?
Mi Xiaoxiao leaned against the sofa and allowed her hand to be massaged by him. She chuckled. Good. If we go and work in the film industry, we will definitely be the queen and king of the movie industry!
Of course! The guy looked proud and then he asked discreetly, Then... when will you really be my girlfriend?
Mi Xiaoxiao pulled out her hand and pinched on his face. She showed a charming smile and said, Little brother, that depends on how well you behave in the future!
The guy was used to being teased by others, but now he ended up being teased by her. He could not help but flush and swore. I am younger than you, but I will definitely take great care of you!
Mi Xiaoxiao showed a bright face, looking moved. But inwardly, she never took such words seriously.
She had heard such loving words enough times. In the end, they would all turn out to be a bag of wind.
It would be stupid of her to believe them again. But it was alright. She did not care about evesting love, brief encounters were fine.
This good looking guy was at least warm towards her. Maybe, she could spend a happy night with him.
Zhao Anan went to the Mus Hospital straight from there and rushed to Mu Qings office as soon as she arrived at the hospital.
Mu Qing was in the middle of examining a patient and he got startled when he saw Zhao Ananing towards him.
What is it? You look sweaty.
Mu Qing spoke in his usual voice, sounding gentle and indulgent.
Probably it had been because they hadnt talked in a long time, Zhao Anan felt as if she had not seen him for an entire century.
She saw him half an hour ago, but Zhao Anan felt that she had be a stranger for Mu Qing.
But Mu Qing did not feel this way. He talked in a natural and casual way, regarding her as someone close to him.
It seemed as if nothing had happened between them. It seemed that she had never turned down his proposal and he had never gone on a blind date. It seemed that she was still unruly and Mu Qing was still that tolerant man of hers.
Sit down and drink some water first, I am with a patient.
Mu Qing looked at Zhao Anan calmly and then turned to the patient. He was not great at distinguishing the public affairs from private ones, but for his patients, Mu Qing was always utmost professional.
The previous Zhao Anan would have made a fuss despite the patients presence, and would have spilled out what she came to say at one go, without bothering about his instructions.
But during the past two days, she discovered so many of her shorings and how terrible she had been. She detested the bitch who had gone on a blind date with Mu Qing, but she also learnt a great deal from her.
She stopped herself from saying anything more, and sat down on the chair obediently, waiting for Mu Qing to finish the examination.
Zhao Anan waited for more than half an hour and got extremely impatient. Then she anxiously paced back and forth in the office until Mu Qing finally finished the talk with the patient.
The patient was in her 30s and was going to get an excision surgery. She was very scared of the surgery, so Mu Qing had to tell her about the process calmly and slowly in order to ensure that she rxed.
After the patient left, Mu Qing looked up at Zhao Anan.
She was not dressed in the PJ as she had the day before, but was wearing a simple ck T-shirt and a pair of ck sportswear with purple sneakers.
The simple outfit did not showcase her breasts, nor did they disy her slender waist or long legs.
Zhao Anan was as tall as Mi Xiaoxiao, around 170cm. They both had lovely skin, but Zhao Anan was always dressed as a tomboy whilst Mi Xiaoxiao was a sexy dresser.
Zhao Anan hid all of her merits whilst Mi Xiaoxiao showed them all.
Zhao Anan did not like bright colored clothes and chose cks and greys, mostly. She did not want too much fuss. Since these colors were easy to match, she would always look okay in thebination.
Mi Xiaoxiao, however, liked to dress up in vibrant colors. Apart from the working clothes, she had no other dress in ck, except the sexy ck stockings.
In principle, Mi Xiaoxiao should have been Mu Qings type in every way.
But Mu Qing only had eyes for Zhao Anan. Even if he did not like ck clothes, he still found Zhao Anan beautiful, dressed like this.
Even if she was wearing PJs, Mu Qing still found her more attractive than Mi Xiaoxiao who had been d in a sexy Chanel dress.
That was what was called, love is blind, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Mu Qing would not change his affection towards her, no matter what she was wearing. He liked her, not her clothes.
Mu Qing had forgotten what Shangguan Ning told him. He just could not keep his distance from Zhao Anan.
He had not seen her or talked with her for ages.
He had wondered about how she was during the past two days. He believed that she must have been devastated.
But when he called Zhao Zhao yesterday, she told him that Anan had slept and eaten two portions of beefsteak for lunch and dinner, along with pasta and consumed half a bottle of red wine.
Chapter 572 - Not Her!
Chapter 572: Not Her!
How could she still eat that much, when he had got on a blind date with another woman.
Wasnt she worried that she would get choked by the beefsteak?
Mu Qing was not sure if he should feel happy or annoyed.
He came to Zhao Anan and reached out for her hands, pulling her off the chair. Then he hugged her.
What are you doing here, today? Now you have started to miss me? Didnt you say that you are not marrying me? Then why are you here?
His series of questions made Zhao Anan speechless.
She had meant to say that she was not going to marry him.
But a stronger voice inside her head shouted that she was definitely going to marry him!
Mu Qing smelled of antiseptic solution as usual. Zhao Anan used to hate this kind of smell before she met him. But after spending so much time with him, she started liking the smell, probably because she liked him so much.
This smell made her feel safe.
Held by Mu Qing and leaning against his chest, listening to his heartbeat, she felt iparably happy.
She had never felt this kind of happiness before when Mu Qing held her. She never used to be possessive of Mu Qing in the past. What happened to her today?
Could it be because she had got him back?
No, she had not even gotten him back and she was already delighted.
She was getting weaker and more vulnerable.
Zhao Anan felt a bit uneasy. She had been given the order to not see Mu Qing again.
When grandmother forced her to meet Mu Qing earlier, she used to refuse. But now she had forbidden her toe here, and Zhao Anan was looking for ways by which she could meet him.
What was wrong with her?
Zhao Anan despised herself deeply. But the next moment, she said something else to Mu Qing. Your outfit looks so ugly!
Okay, I wont wear it if you dont like it. I will only wear outfits you like and buy, alright?
Mu Qing sounded gentle, and had propped his chin against her forehead. He smelled the shampoo in her hair, feeling really d.
She hadnt turned him down when he held her.
She used to push him away in the past and would not sit down obediently until he gave her a needle.
Unexpectedly, within a couple of days of Shangguan Nings n being on, the effect was already visible. Shangguan Ning was indeed a great woman. She knew each and every drawback and vulnerability of Zhao Anan.
After hearing what Mu Qing said, Zhao Anan felt both sweet and sour. She had never bought any outfit for Mu Qing.
And she was afraid that she was not going to buy any in the future, either.
Her German doctor once said that the possibility of her cancer returning was over 75%. That high a rate made her feel that she only had a few years left.
Many people with the same disease were going through treatment at the German Cancer Center. The hospitals advanced technology could more or less stop the cancer cells from spreading, making the patients get better. However, many people died because the cancer returned.
At the first return, the speed of spreading was not very high and the treatment could be done easily. But a second and third time of return would make the treatment much more difficult.
So far, no one had survived the fourth rpse.
Normally, people would not stand the third return as well.
Chemotherapy was a painful treatment and many people would rather die than tolerate the pain.
Zhao Anan was easygoing and happy, but she knew enough about her disease.
She truly did not want to make Mu Qing miserable. He was young and had a promising future ahead of him. He did not need to be alone and miserable just because of her.
Even if the cancer returned, it would still take two to three years before she died. Must Mu Qing wait until her death to marry someone else?
It would be better for him to find a wife now, and maybe before she died, she could see Mu Qings child being born.
Zhao Anan did not answer Mu Qing. She just couldnt extract herself out of his arms, although she wanted to.
She liked his embrace and wanted to stay this way for a bit longer.
You are going on blind dates now?
How did you know that? Did you stalk me?! Mu Qing had her against the wall, so she had no way to escape.
No way! Zhao Anan would never admit that she had done such a stupid thing. My grandmother... told me that your family got you a blind date!
Oh, did grandmother say that the girl is pretty?
Bah, she is worse than me! Zhao Anan ttered herself against her own conscience.
Oh, so you have met her?
No I havent! I was not convinced when my grandmother told me that she is pretty.
Oh, then? You stalked me? Mu Qing asked nonchntly as he leaned against Zhao Anans soft body.
Zhao Anan got uneasy and bit Mu Qings chest. I didnt stalk you! No more asking.
Mu Qing let out a painful sigh but he did not care about being bitten by her. Instead, he said in an indulgent tone, Alright, no more asking, I will let you ask me.
Do you think that she is pretty?
Very, and nicely shaped, too. She is smart and a graduate from Cambridge University, gentle and good at cooking. Should I marry her?
Zhao Anan blurted out. No, you cant marry her!
Only now did she realize that she had been tricked.
Mu Qing had said that on purpose.
Oh, whom should I marry, if I cant marry such a perfect woman? Any suggestions?
Zhao Anan got annoyed by his words.
He was thinking about someone else when he had her in his arms, and even asked her for advice. She should definitely kick him away.
You can marry anyone you want. None of my business. I am going to bite you hard if you dont let me go now.
Seeing the woman in his arms getting so furious, Mu Qingughed.
With one hand around her and the other wiping her sweat on the forehead, he said in a low voice, Why dont you trust me? Do you think that I will fall for anyone else apart from you? Tell me.
The furious woman suddenly turned into a docile kitty when she heard Mu Qings words.
Mu Qing had never fallen for anyone else.
Zhao Anan felt like crying, but she did not forget the reason why she was here today.
You cant marry that woman. She is not good!
Chapter 573 - Failure
Chapter 573: Failure
Mu Qing chuckled, leading her along. Why is she not a good person?
She...
Zhao Anan could not continue after uttering that one word.
She stalked her for two days in a row but had just denied that. She would expose herself if she told him what she had seen.
She is a foxy bitch!
Mu Qing smiled brightly, What makes you say so? Is she seducing someone else?
Zhao Anans eyes were widened. How do you know?
Mu Qing crickled his eyes. She told me that she would not eat lunch with me today because she is on a date with a good looking guy. My turn is tomorrow.
What?! Zhao Anan gasped!
How could this woman be so shameless?
She took turns in eating meals with men!
So Mu Qing knew about the ridiculous behavior of this woman and was still going ahead with her?!
Zhao Anan got furious and ordered. You must not eat with her!
Sure, if you eat with me, I wont go even if a fairy asks me to. Mu Qing was very happy, as he caressed her face.
We have broken up. Why should I eat with you?!
Oh, yes, we have broken up. Then I will eat with that foxy bitch. Not sure if I will be able topete with that young guy at my age.
Zhao Anan got annoyed and bit his chest fiercely.
Mu Qing unbuttoned his shirt, exposing his chest where rows of clear toothprints were seen, looking very suggestive.
Look at what you have done! You are so ruthless. Should I punish you?
Stop switching the topic! I told you C dont go and eat with that woman, dont marry her! Marry someone who is nice and who can take care of you... Zhao Anan said in a low voice.
Mu Qing ced his fingers on her chin and forced her to look at him whilst speaking through gritted teeth. I never knew that you are so broad-minded that you can push me towards another woman. Are you so worried about which kind of wife I am marrying? Do you not care about me at all?
Zhao Anan felt tearsing to the edge of her eyes. I dont know how much time I have and I cant have babies. Your family dont like me either. So, I dont want to marry you.
Stop talking nonsense! Mu Qing felt his eyes go red as he bellowed. You have a lot of time and you are healthy.
I am not talking nonsense, the doctor said that...
Mu Qing interrupted Zhao Anan. Which doctor? I am the best doctor and I am telling you that you will be able to live upto 100 years. You will!
Normally, when one party got furious, the other would turn down her or his temper. That was what happened between Zhao Anan and Mu Qing as well. The more gentle Mu Qing was to her, the more unruly she would be.
But if Mu Qing truly got furious, she would turn docile and stop arguing with him, otherwise Mu Qing would spank her hard.
Stop being stubborn, Anan. You are 28 years old. Are you nning to marry me at 38? Mu Qing softened his voice, seeing that she did not respond to him. Then he put his head against hers, tiredly.
Zhao Anan still did not talk. She thought that she would not live for more than ten years. But Mu Qing would surely get angry, if she said those words.
Oh! Do you think that you wont live to see your 38th year, also? Mu Qing seemed to have seen through her.
He said softly, I can promise that you will definitely live for many years, and I can help you do that, not the top-notch experts in Germany!
Are you sure that you wont marry me? Mu Qing lowered his head and looked straight into Zhao Anans eyes.
He was trying his best for the veryst time.
If he was able to move Zhao Anans heart and get her to agree to marry him, then Shangguan Nings n could be cancelled and Zhao Anan would not need to suffer any more.
If he failed, then he would definitely and firmly carry out Shangguan Nings n until he managed to convince her.
Seeing Mu Qings eyes, Zhao Anan said against her will, No. You can marry someone else!
Mu Qing got so annoyed that he let out a sneer, I am very stupid, aint I? I have asked you hundreds of times and I still believe that the answer will be the opposite!
He released Zhao Anan, and went to sit down on his chair. He said calmly, Alright, you can leave now. Donte and beg me to marry you in a couple of days.
It seemed that Shangguan Ning was right. Zhao Anan needed to be cornered.
He had not wanted to push her or y tricks on her, because that seemed unfair to Zhao Anan.
But was it fair when Zhao Anan treated him in this way?
When Jing Yichen wanted to marry Shangguan Ning back then, he had been really dominating. He did not care about Shangguan Nings rebellion and did not even care about her having a fever but took her straight to the Civil Affairs Office for the registration.
If he had been less considerate, he and Zhao Anan would not have ended up being stuck in the present situation.
Luckily, it was not toote.
He was going to break the vows about not forcing her. Vows were not important. Marrying her was what mattered above everything else.
Nothing was going to stop him anymore.
He was going to ask Shangguan Ning what he needed to do. He had, as a matter of fact, not cared much about the n up till now. Nor had he thought it over carefully. But now, he was going to pay attention. He must not allow the n to fail just because of him.
Zhao Anan was startled by Mu Qings cold tone.
She was not worried if Mu Qing got furious. Spanking her was a minor thing as well. But when he was calm, it meant that he was really pissed.
Mu Qing had a simr personality as she did. They were not able to conceal their emotions, be it delight or annoyance.
He was not pretending to be cold at this moment, either.
She felt chill attacking her heart, but still walked out of the office without saying anything else.
The moment she walked out of the office, she bumped into Zheng Jing.
Zhao Anan was in a bad mood, so she ignored him and walked past as if he didnt exist.
Zheng Jing shook his head helplessly, gestured to Mu Qing and caught up with Zhao Anan. He said with a smile, Anan, what a coincidence! We meet again. Are you here to see Mu Qing?
Zhao Anan did not feel weird to have run into Zheng Jing twice in a row. Zheng Jing was a regr visitor at the hospital as well.
But what was weird was that he was following her!
Chapter 574 - Present
Chapter 574: Present
Zhao Anan did not want to speak with him, but seeing that he followed her all the way out of the hospital, she could not help but say, Why are you following me? Get out of my way. I hate you!
I think you look good today. Zheng Jing did not sound upset. Instead, his words were flirty.
Zhao Anan threw a dubious look at him. You forgot to take your drugs today?
Before Zheng Jing could respond, she said with an expression of realization. Oh, I see. You have finished your drugs, so you are here to get some new ones from Mu Qing. Go and get them! No wonder I saw a set of drugs on his table to cure mentally-disturbed people. They are for you, right?
Goddamn it! What a ruthless girl!
Zheng Jing decided not to push her anymore. So he patted Zhao Anans shoulders and threw a tempting proposal her way. I have a lot of money on me today.
Really? Zhao Anan became happy. Zheng Jing was indeed a walking ATM!
Of course, but you cant rob me of it. I am much better prepared today.
Then what do you want me to do?
What about... kissing me?
Bang!
Zheng Jing got punched by Zhao Anan on his stomach.
You shameless man! How dare you flirt with me?
Zheng Jing was, however, a very sincere man. He had never flirted with any woman in such a way.
This was not his style, so when he said those lines, he felt very ufortable.
He had predicted that he would be punched. It would be strange if he had not.
If anyone dared to flirt Zheng Lun in this way, he would definitely have punched that person until he lost all his teeth.
Zheng Jing really did not like the role that Shangguan Ning had designed for him. He felt that he needed to talk with Shangguan Ning about getting the script modified.
If he continued to perform in this way, he would be killed by Zhao Anan sooner orter.
Hey, I was just joking. You dont have to hit me so hard.
Zheng Jings face looked twisted. Zhao Anan had apparently not held anything back andnded a solid punch.
Serves you right! Zhao Anan did not sound guilty. Instead, she stretched out her hands and said, Give me the money!
I can give you the money on one condition!
Oh yeah? Zhao Anan showed a dangerous expression. More conditions? Like the previous one?
No, no! Zheng Jing denied instantly. Help me pick a present.
Present? For whom? A man or a woman? Old or young? I am warning you, if you dare have a thought about someone else, I will beat you to death on behalf of Lun!
No, no way. I have no thoughts about any other woman. I am giving the present to an ordinary friend.
Thats ok, then! Lets go. Lead the way, I will pick the present for you. Give me 100,000 yuan in exchange. Thats the deal.
Zhao Anan also believed that Zheng Jing would not have fallen for anyone else. She did not care if he was going to get a present for someone. It could be for a birthday party or a wedding ceremony.
What she cared about was that a favor for Zheng Jing could get her money.
100,000?! I am paid only a few thousands a month. You are forcing me to stop eating or drinking for a whole year to get this much. Zheng Jing shook his head instantly.
Forget it, you are too expensive for me. I can pick the present myself. I may be able to afford a more expensive present if I dont hire you.
Having said the words, Zheng Jing was about to leave.
Zhao Anan got annoyed. She gripped Zheng Jings arms and said with a smile, Ah, dont leave now! We can negotiate. The most important thing is that I am good at picking a present. You have got the right person.
She smiled as she scanned Zheng Jings clothes, trying to see where he hid the money.
Money was indeed a wonderful thing!
If Zheng Jing had not given her the 2,000 yuan, she would not have been able to stalk Mi Xiaoxiao.
Without money, she would not have been able to drink coffee and eat the cake when she was at the cafe.
Zheng Jing was indeed a very nice man. He even offered her money when he knew that she had turned poor. She felt that she would go easy on him in the future.
She would end up cutting her source of ie if she drove away the ATM!
They took the taxi and went to Zhaos Jewelry.
Why are we going to your store? It is too expensive. I dont have that much money!
Why not? I am offering you the best in the market, understand? I can even get you a discount at my familys store. Isnt it good to save some money? You want a ne, right? We have cheap but pretty ones!
Zhao Anan dragged Zheng Jing into Zhaos Jewelry and said to the staff, Show the cheapest ne and give the highest discount for this man.
Zheng Jings face sunk.
He felt so humiliated when she spoke in this way.
His sry wasnt high but Zheng Jings family was rich! Pei Xinhua had quite a fewpanies in her possession as well.
He was the best police officer in A City and received a big bonus each year. Why must he buy the cheapest ne at the jewelry store?
The staffs lips were twitching. She was trying hard to conceal the smile.
Zhao Anan was trying to set him up, right?
Please, this is the discount area, all the nes are on 10% discount. Please look at them.
The staff had not run into such a customer before, so she felt very disdainful towards these people, but still behaved professionally.
She did not know Zhao Anan, and thought that Zhao Anan was just joking when she said that the store was hers.
Zheng Jing bought the present at Shangguan Nings request. He was just doing the work, so he did not care about the price and the style. Hence he asked Zhao Anan for help.
Zhao Anan picked the cheapest one and asked the staff to give her a 50% discount. But the staff did not agree with it.
My name is Zhao Anan, Zhao Zhao is my mother, Zhao Fo is my grandmother. I own this store, why cant I get a 50% discount for a friend?!
The staff got slightly startled by what she said. She didnt know if Zhao Anan was really who she said she was.
Zhao Anan was behaving rudely as if she really owned the store.
The staff, of course, knew about Zhao Fo and Zhao Zhao, and she even knew about Zhao Anan, except that she had never met her before.
But 50% off was an unreasonable discount rate, and even if Zhao Fo and Zhao Zhao were here, there would never be such a big discount given because that was way below the original cost.
Chapter 575 - Robbery
Chapter 575: Robbery
The staff did not dare offend Zhao Anan, so she said to her truthfully, Miss, we have never given 50% discount in our store, the same goes for President Zhao. You can ask her if you want.
Since you said that your mother is the boss, what about asking her yourself?
Zhao Anan would of course not ask Zhao Zhao, or she would be exposed for running out of home and will be taken back.
Zhao Anan got a bit annoyed. She found that she had cared so little about the family business that the employees did not recognize her.
In the end, Zheng Jing bought a ne priced at 5,000 with a 20% discount. That was the cheapest ne in the entire store, and was chosen by Zhao Anan.
After they walked out of the store, Zhao Anan stretched out her hands towards Zheng Jing. Money!
She had thought that Zheng Jing would reject her, but he put the wallet into her palm and said, This is all the money I have. Take it! I told you that I am happy to give it to you.
Aha?
Zhao Anan dug her ears, thinking that she had heard something wrong.
That did not sound right...
But she was already distracted by the wallet, so she treated his words as nothing but a bag of wind.
Inside the wallet, there was a neat deck of 2,000 yuan as if it had been waiting for her. It baffled Zhao Anan.
But she could not tell what was weird about it, so she ignored her instinct and said with a frown, So little?
Zheng Jing got annoyed by her disdainful look. But he had to tolerate her behavior and said in a guilty tone. I did not expect that I would run into you. Next time, I will get more.
Zhao Anan nodded with satisfaction. Seems that you have learnt well. Now, you can go do whatever you want. I am leaving.
That wont work. You have chosen a gift for me, and I should treat you to a meal. What about having beefsteak at a western restaurant?
Zhao Anan raised her eyebrows. You still have money with you?
I have a credit card, no cash.
They went and ate a rich lunch at the restaurant. Post that, they took a walk to digest the food and then Zheng Jing dropped Zhao Anan home.
When Zhao Anan arrived home, she felt that something weird was going on with Zheng Jing. He had not been so friendly to her in the past. He might not be as cold as Jing Yichen, but was quite indifferent. He would never have treated her to a lunch earlier, so what made him change?
Before Zhao Anan could think further, a cold voice arose from behind her back. Where have you been, Zhao Anan?
She got startled. She turned around and squeezed her face into a fake smile. In a pleasing tone, she said, Grandmother, I just went out for some fun. It is so boring being at home!
The Old Lady asked in a low voice. For some fun? You went to visit Mu Qing, didnt you? My little birds at the Mus Hospital told me so. Dont think that I would not get to know about it!
What? Little birds?
So grandmother had arranged for someone to spy at her in the hospital? That was so sinister.
Zhao Anan suddenly copsed and said with a drooping head. Yes, I went there to break up with him. Please, dont misunderstand me, Grandmother!
This is thest time. Since you have decided not to marry Mu Qing, then dont badger him. If you like him that much, go ahead and marry him. You are not allowed to keep him hanging. This is not what the Zhao Family is like!
The Old Lady of the Zhao Family sounded fierce, and Zhao Anan lowered her head. I know...
Since you dont want to marry Mu Qing, then we can talk about your blind date.
Huh?!
Zhao Anan looked up abruptly. She got so startled that she gasped.
What are you talking about, Grandmother? A blind date?!
Of course, if Mu Qing can go on a blind date, why cant you? The Old Lady asked casually, but soon, she changed her expression. Or, is it that you are still thinking about Mu Qing?
No, no... Zhao Anan started to stutter when she heard this. I... I... not blind dates! Thats bad for the date!
The old Lady knew what her granddaughter meant C she was afraid that she would not live long enough to have a proper rtionship with any other man.
But that was thest thing she wanted to hear.
Nonsense! What do you mean bad for the date? I have found a man who can ept you as you are. He is divorced with a child. Its good because you do not need to give birth to a child when you marry him. You can get your uterus removed and that would reduce the chance of getting the disease once again.
Since Zhao Anan had not got married or had any child, Zhao Zhao had never agreed that she should undergo this kind of surgery earlier.
What? Divorced with a child? I am going to be a stepmother? Zhao Anans eyes widened and looked at the olddy in disbelief. Grandmother, are you really my grandmother? Did you pick my mother up from the street?
The olddy knocked at her forehead in anger. Of course, I gave birth to your mother. Otherwise I would not have cared about you at all!
Oh, then I am the one picked up from the street.
Stop talking nonsense! This is the deal. Nine oclock tomorrow morning, the man will pick you up for a meal. You must not sleep in tillte.
No, grandmother, I dont want to be someone elses stepmother. Zhao Anan slumped down to the floor, looking displeased. She almost threw a tantrum by rolling over the floor.
The Old Lady of the Zhao Family did not care about her behavior and said authoritatively, You can be a real mother, if you marry Mu Qing tomorrow. Then I will cancel the blind date. Your call.
These are two different matters. I am not marrying Mu Qing because I dont want to cause him trouble.
Then you must go for the blind date tomorrow. The man is a supplier to our store. Dress up well. Do not lose face for the Zhao Family.
Having said the words, the olddy went upstairs, ignoring Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan rolled her eyes and suddenly jumped up with glee. Alright then, I will give you a nice surprise tomorrow!
The following morning, Zhao Anan got up early in the morning, got dressed into the clothes which her grandmother had prepared for her. During breakfast, she even helped grandmother with the porridge and food, making the Old Lady feel suspicious.
The mans car came to the Zhao Family and picked Zhao Anan up. She showed her true colors after the car was a few hundred meters away from the house.
She pulled out a knife and put it over the mans neck. She said, I am a robber, give me all the money you have!
Chapter 576 - Real Brother
Chapter 576: Real Brother
The man pulled the car over on the side and nced at the fierce looking Zhao Anan. Then he raised his eyebrows seeing the knife in her hand and said calmly, Hello, Miss Zhao. My name is Yu Mo and I am from B City. I am 36 years old, divorced, currently single with a 7-year-old son. I used to be a soldier from special forces and now I am the captain of B City Police Office, the Director of B City Public Security Bureau, the mayor of B City. Are you sure that you want to rob me?
Jesus, she had hit a rock!
Zhao Anans hand quivered, dropping the knife upon Yu Mos thigh.
Yu Mo picked up the knife expressionlessly, and gave it back to Zhao Anan. He said calmly, Miss Zhao, you dropped your knife.
Mayor...?! Zhao Anan stuttered. She was sweating.
She had been about to rob the mayor of B City? This Yu Mo had so many titles C a soldier from special forces, someone from the police office, Public Security Bureau?
Was he going to send her straight to the prison?!
Didnt grandmother say that he was a supplier to their family business? Why had she not mentioned that he was a mayor?!
She had fallen for her trap again.
It was finally proven that she was not her real granddaughter. Her mother could not have been born to that olddy but picked from the dumpster.
Zhao Anan picked the knife and tossed it outside the window quickly. She forced a smile on her face. Well... Mayor Mo Yu, I am so... sorry! I was just joking with you. Dont take it seriously!
Hearing how she addressed him, Yu Mos lips twitched. Miss Zhao, my name is Yu Mo, not Mo Yu, please remember.
Oh, sorry, I was just too nervous to address you correctly. Sorry, Mayor Mo, I tend to get flustered when I meet important people.
Zhao Anans fingers were crossed tightly together and sweat beads formed on her forehead.
Dont be nervous, I am not violent and I dont have the habit of beating up my blind dates. If you are okay with it, I will keep on driving. Hmm? Yu Mo was not sure if she said his name wrongly on purpose or she wanted to tease him. But he did not correct her mistake. He started the engine, driving away.
Zhao Anan tried to calm herself down and asked in a tentative voice. Mayor Mo, are you really the mayor of B City? Why have I never heard of you?
Yu Mo nodded calmly, Yes I am.
Zhao Anan waited for Yu Mo to exin further but he did not seem to have the intention to say anything else. She thought for a while, took out her phone and started to check it online.
Sure enough, this Yu Mo person was really the mayor of B City. But he had been in the position for the past six months. Earlier, he used to be the Director of the Public Security Bureau.
Zhao Anan wiped off the sweat from her forehead and asked in a surprised tone. My grandmother said that you are a supplier to our store?
Yu Mo nodded. Yes.
Yet again, he did not say anything further. That annoyed Zhao Anan.
This man talked so little, just like Jing Yichen. What would happen if he exined it fully?
Why not tell her how he could be both the mayor and supplier. Governmental officers were not allowed to run business nowadays.
But seeing his cold face, Zhao Anan buried all her confusion inside. Still, she was restless when so many of her questions remained unanswered.
The car stopped at a very inconspicuous tea house. Yu Mo got out of the car, came to Zhao Anans side, and opened the door for her.
Zhao Anan was startled and thanked him quickly, Thank you so much, Mayor Mo, thank you!
Lets go.
Saying so, Yu Mo turned around and entered the tea house.
Zhao Anan ran to catch up with him.
The tea house was designed like a courtyard, one that resembled the ancient styled tea houses, elegant and ssical.
Zhao Anan grew up in A City and had been to many amazing ces. But she never knew that there was such a lovely tea house in this city.
She followed Yu Mo to the elegant room and was startled when she caught sight of the man inside. Cousin?!
A handsome man dressed in a white shirt and coffee colored pants was sitting inside. He looked distant and lethal. He was none other than Jing Yichen!
Jing Yichen ignored Zhao Anan. Instead of standing up, he nodded to Yu Mo who had entered. Come and take a seat.
Yu Mo called him Master Jing courteously, and then took the seat opposite him.
Standing between these two men, Zhao Anans eyes were wide opened. She stood there, confused.
What was Jing Yichen doing here, on her blind date?
When he and Shangguan Ning went for the date years ago, she had left them alone. Did he not remember?
She wont be able to run away in the presence of this annoying man.
Jing Yichen threw a look at Zhao Anan and frowned slightly, Dont keep standing there, sit down!
Zhao Anan chose a seat that was farthest away from him, and pursed her lips. Her drooping face showed how displeased she was.
Jing Yichen ignored her expressions and said calmly, I found you a job. You can start work from tomorrow.
What? Zhao Anan couldnt understand what was happening. A job? Why should she have a job? Why was Jing Yichen being so kind hearted to find her a job?
But the next instant, she hopped up excitedly. Thats great! You are my real brother. You solved my problem.
With a job, she wont be trapped inside the vi any more like a prisoner.
Also, with a job, she would get paid. Then she wont have to rob other people!
Suddenly she saw Jing Yichens scowling face. She said, What job did you find me, bro?
You will go back to the University of X...
Before Jing Yichen finished his words, Zhao Ananughed out loudly. To be a teacher at University of X? That is great, bro, you are so kind to me. University of X pays well, and I dont have to teach much during the week. This suits me perfectly!
She walked upto Jing Yichen in excitement and was about to pat his shoulder when she withdrew her hand halfway, after seeing Jing Yichens cold look.
Oh, I just forgot that you dont like being touched.
Jing Yichen took out a file from his ck briefcase and gave it to Zhao Anan. Here is your certificate of employment. Keep it safe.
Zhao Anan took it happily, opened it and saw what was written on the top.
Hereby, Ms. Zhao Anan is hired as the Principal of University of X. The duration is three years.
Zhao Anans file dropped to the ground and she stuttered. Principal?!
Chapter 577 - Ruining the University
Chapter 577: Ruining the University
Bro, you havent made a mistake, have you?
That Ms. Zhao Anan on the paper... could that really mean her?
Jing Yichen looked at her calmly and killed herst remaining hope. It is you.
Oh my dearest cousin, are you joking?
She was well aware of her capabilities.
She had been an English teacher because she spoke good English. But being the principal was way beyond her abilities.
Well... bro, I know you are being nice to me and are worried that I will be expelled once again by the principal. That is why you gave me this position, right? But I am not that capable! Please, get me another job, like a teacher or something.
Dont bete tomorrow. Every principal is supposed to deliver an induction speech. Prepare it today because every teacher and student of the school will be watching you. If you want to humiliate yourself, then you can skip the preparations. But dont tell anyone that you are my cousin.
Having said the words, Jing Yichen stood up and turned to walk away with the ck leather briefcase in his hand.
You can chat first. When you are done, I will speak with Mayor Yu. You know the consequences if you try and run.
Zhao Anans face turned bitter. Being on a blind date with this mayor was a minor matter at the moment. She was only meeting him and that too for the first time rather than marrying him. She could simply tell her grandmother that this man was not fit for her and get over with it.
But bing the Principal of University of X?
She was definitely not going to be able to run away from this fact when the certificate of employment had been given to her.
She used to think that it was great that her cousin was capable of doing anything because he could take care of all the trouble she made. With him around, she could live an easy and rxed life.
But right now, she felt that it was not necessarily a good thing to have such a capable cousin.
Zhao Anan rushed to the door and blocked Jing Yichens path. Bro, my bro! Could you not throw your sister into the fire? I am going to ruin the entire school if I became the principal. You cant destroy the future of the nation.
A principal only needs to maintain the general situation and be a skilled coordinator. You dont need to teach anyone, so the students are not your business.
To maintain the general situation? Me? Bro, dont toy with me! I cant even take care of myself, how can I instruct those professors? My attention span is not more than three minutes and I can never do anything well. University of X will be ruined, and I will be med.
University of X was a prestigious university in the country. Its annual index of achievement was very high and was based on three parameters C the quality of teachers, students enrollment and the three years development after their graduation. There were several awards the school needed to receive and if oneponent did not meet the standard, the rank would drop, and the recruitment of the following year would drop as well.
Zhao Anan had been a teacher at University of X earlier. She could be a professor there because Jing Yichen had helped her at the time. She had never written any dissertation and wouldnt have been able to be a professor without his aid.
And if she ended up ruining University of X, then the students and the parents would me her.
It was too important a mission for a tiny person like her.
She would never have a free day if she really became the principal.
Bro, take away the certificate. I cant be the principal!
That certificate stays with you. The Education Bureau has approved it and sent it to the school, as well. Even if the certificate is taken away, you are already hired. So you have to take up the position, anyway.
Jing Yichen had never exined anything to Zhao Anan so patiently, but this made Zhao Anan even more anxious.
But... but I am not prepared. How will I be able to control such a huge school? Why didnt you tell me earlier so that I could be prepared ahead of time? What am I going to say in the speech tomorrow? I cant think of anything!
Jing Yichen said neutrally, Are you so stupid that you cant even deliver a speech?!
Yes, I am stupid, but you cant kill me for it, bro. I will report you to my sister-inw if you keep setting me up.
Stop yelling. Just go and start working from tomorrow. You will have an assistant who will help you with the work. All you need to do is cooperate.
Jing Yichen did not care if Zhao Anan reported it to Shangguan Ning because it had been Shangguan Ning who had asked him to arrange the job. But he did not want Zhao Anan to trouble his wife, so he had to tell her about the assistant.
Zhao Anan got slightly assured after hearing his words.
She knew that Jing Yichen would not leave everything on her or allow her to ruin a prestigious university.
Haha, I knew that you are the kindest soul. Then... in this case, can I get the assistant to write my speech? I remember that when Principal Min delivered the speech, someone always wrote the content for him. I will have a writer too, right?
Maybe in the future, but not tomorrow. You have to write it yourself.
Zhao Anans face sunk. She did not know anything about writing speeches.
Do you want me to sit with you on your date since you are blocking the door? If you dont mind, I can take a seat beside you.
Startled, Zhao Anan moved away and said in a ttering tone, Master Jing, please.
She could not possibly allow Jing Yichen to listen into her conversation with Mayor Mo Yu, otherwise he would strike her every word down.
As Jing Yichen was about to leave, Zhao Anan suddenly asked. Bro, where is Principal Min? Is he expelled?
No, he is demoted to the level of a deputy. Jing Yichen said as he started walking away.
So I am his leader now?
Ignoring Zhao Anan, Jing Yichen went and sat down in another elegant room.
Zhao Anan did not mind his attitude, and was starting to get a bit excited. She had disliked Principal Min for a long time and now it was time for her to mess with him.
She and Shangguan Ning had been expelled by that old dude and she was definitely going to take revenge now.
It would be best if she could find some excuse that would humiliate him and get him expelled.
Soon, Zhao Anan forgot about the huge pressure of being the principal, but started to think about how she could use her position to extract revenge.
Jing Yichen knew what she was capable of, so he could not possibly have allowed her to control the school all by herself. Her assistant would surely solve most of her issues and she was just there for show.
Chapter 578 - Cancer
Chapter 578: Cancer
After dealing with Jing Yichen, Zhao Anan was no longer anxious when she confronted Yu Mo again. It was as if the robbing incident hadnt happened at all.
She sat down in front of Yu Mo, intending to have a friendly conversation with him.
Well, Mayor Mo, since you have told me about yourself, I will do the same.
Zhao Anan drank up the tea which Jing Yichen had left untouched. Before Yu Mo reacted to her words, she said, My name is Zhao Anan, and I am from A City. I dont have any special traits except for getting into fights with people. I cant cook, wash clothes or do any housework. I am not intelligent, nor do I have great looks. A typical three-nothingness product.
Having said the words, she waited for Yu Mo to respond.
Yu Mo threw a look at her and said calmly, I have servants to do the housework. You dont need to do anything. Also, you wont be able to beat me in a fight, so that point doesnt matter.
Zhao Anan was speechless. She had forgotten that this man used to be in the special forces.
He did not seem to give a damn about the seemingly frightening martial arts that she was capable of.
As for your three-nothingness... Yu Mo looked poised and said in a rxed tone, You look pretty and your shape is okay. But you are definitely brainless. Nheless, I like women without brains. It is not good if a woman is too clever.
Zhao Anan was dressed in a tomboyish style today. But her grandmother had picked the outfit for her, so she was not wearing ck.
She wore a mauve short sleeved chiffon blouse, looking solemn and graceful. The blouse was translucent, so her white undergarment could be seen faintly.
She wore a pair of white pants and sneakers, entuating her legs long, drawing quite a lot of attention from people around.
Zhao Anan was at ease in this outfit. As long as she was not asked to wear dresses, she would be okay with anything else.
There was a time when she used to be dressed in sling tops and hot pants just to save trouble. But she ended up drawing dirty looks from unruly men and that made her give the style up.
Zhao Anan had exquisite facial features. Zhao Zhaos genes had been passed down to her, and she was a beautifuldy, even at this age. She had a well defined oval face, almond shaped eyes and a high bridged nose as well as beautiful bow shaped lips.
Yu Mo was not lying when he said that she was pretty. He genuinely believed it.
However, most men preferred charming girls with a gentle personality rather than those who looked like a tomboy. Otherwise, they would think that they were in a rtionship with a man.
But Zhao Anan did not feel grateful to Yu Mo for his ttering words because he had said that she was brainless.
When she said that she had no brain, she was being humble rather than truthful. But this man had taken her words on their face value.
Zhao Anan, however, had no intention of arguing with Yu Mo about it.
I am brainless and I am sick too. I dont have many years left. Would you like a sick wife? No one would be interested in marrying a sick person, right? Zhao Anan was very happy. She thought that she had hit the right spot this time.
It is alright, I knew that already. Before our meeting, your family told me about you. I can ept this point. Yu Mo was still poised. He looked neither furious nor displeased.
With her arms over the table, Zhao Anan leaned forward and said in a low voice, I have cancer! Incurable disease! You know, I will die soon!
Yes, I understand. I have got stomach cancer. Anything else? Yu Mo let out the explosive words, subtly.
Zhao Anan gasped. Her jaw almost fell to the ground.
You too? Impossible!
Zhao Anan was startled. She could not believe what Yu Mo said.
Cancer is verymon nowadays, but the treatment for stomach cancer is more or less easy. If the stomach is cut out at an early stage, the patient can avoid the danger and live like a normal person, probably all the way to 70 or 80 years of age. You dont need to be scared about it. As far as I remember, your cancer has been cured. It may return but you are living in its fear. The more fear you have, the more likely it will return. You must rx and enjoy your life.
Yu Mo did not talk much about his disease, but tried to exin to Zhao Anan about hers, patiently.
Zhao Anan did not hear what he told her, because her mind was still thinking about stomach cancer. So this guy was in the same shoes as she was. How pitiful!
Suddenly an idea shed across her mind and she said, Then you should not find a wife with cancer. What if both of us die? Your son will be alone. You must find a healthy wife who can take care of your son when you are gone.
No need. My ex-wife is healthy and she can take care of my son. She is his mother and should be able to take care of him better than any stepmother.
True! I will be a stepmother if I marry you and wont be able to take care of your son. I cant even take care of myself, and your son may end up being harmed by me.
Thats okay. My son is 7 years old and he can take care of himself. We have servants at home and his grandparents are still alive. You dont need to take care of him.
But... Zhao Anan was looking for more points. She raked her brain before blurting out, But I dont like children!
It seemed that Yu Mo hadnt heard what she said, but a few secondster, he replied. You dont have to give birth to any if you dont like children.
Zhao Anan scratched her short hair, wondering what was wrong with this man who had a counter ready for her every attack.
Well, let me put it in this way. We are not a good match, and it wont work if we are forced to be together. Zhao Anan had no other way to turn him down except to tell him the truth.
I think we are a perfect match.
I... I really do not want to get married so early. As you can see, my cousin has just appointed me as the principal of a prestigious university. I am a very ambitious woman, and I have no time to think about rtionships. I must focus on being a good principal.
Those half true words made Zhao Anan quiver inside, but it was a good excuse, no? Jing Yichens job for her as the principal finally worked.
Yu Mo finally stayed silent after hearing what she said.
Zhao Anan chuckled inwardly. It seemed that Yu Mo was also a man who regarded business as more important than anything else!
Chapter 579 - Certificate after One Hour
Chapter 579: Certificate after One Hour
However, Yu Mo said the following second, Marriage and career can be handled together. You can live in A City after we get married and carry on with your career, if you want to. I have my career to take care of, as well. I had thought that you would get bored staying at home after we get married. But now, Master Jing has helped us to solve thest problem and I am assured.
To hell with you being assured!
I am not assured!
Zhao Anan rolled her eyes in annoyance, but Yu Mo did not care about how she reacted. He behaved as if they had known each other for years.
What did he mean by saying that thest problem was solved?! There were hundreds of problems between them. Nothing was solved yet.
Zhao Anan felt that she would get dizzy if she continued this conversation with Yu Mo.
She struck the table hard and bellowed, Let me tell you the truth. I dont like men! I like women! So, forget about me.
Yu Mo threw a calm look at her and took a sip of the tea. It doesnt matter if you like men or women. What matters is that you are a woman and I like women.
Zhao Anan was totally defeated. Where did her grandmother get this weirdo from? But this man seemed to know Jing Yichen as well, so was he someone whom Jing Yichen had found for her?
He was way beyond her ability to deal with. No one, apart from Jing Yichen, had made her feel so frenzied in her limited lifetime.
Zhao Anan copsed onto the table, helplessly and showed a bitter face. Mr. Mayor, are we enemies?
Of course not!
Then why are you forcing me to die?
But your family agreed for this blind date. I never forced you.
But I dont like you, cant you see that? Zhao Anan was beyond caring about her words now.
Yu Mo said confidently, It is okay, you will like me soon.
I have someone in my heart already!
I dont mind, as long as you are mine, your heart wont drift away.
I dont like the idea of a divorced man with a child.
My boy is very docile and I have nothing to do with my ex-wife, so dont worry.
I dont like old men.
I am just eight years older than you, not that old. Actually, I am physically stronger than most people, so you dont need to worry about our fun in the bed.
Zhao Anan rolled her eyes speechlessly and dropped dead on the table.
She was not going to marry this man. He was way too scary, scarier than Jing Yichen. He seemed to be cheekier than her cousin, too. How terrible!
She had just gotten rid of Mu Qing and now she was falling into Yu Mos hands?
Was every mayor so good at turning things upside down?
Any more questions? Yu Mo asked Zhao Anan like a gentleman.
Zhao Anan replied feebly, No.
It was not necessary to ask anything more. She would only bring more trouble to herself.
Alright then, lets go. Yu Mo stood up. He picked up the car keys and started walking.
Zhao Anan looked up and asked in confusion, Where to?
Yu Mo spilled out three words as he looked at her calmly. Civil Affairs Office.
What?! Zhao Anan got so startled that she almost fell off the chair.
A fortune-teller told me that today is a very auspicious day for marrying.
I am not going! Zhao Anan bellowed furiously, I am not marrying you!
What was wrong with him? They had met only an hour ago and now they were getting registered? Was he mental?
How greedy was this man?
Then why are you on a blind date with me, if you dont want to marry me? Yu Mo seemed to find her behaviour strange.
Zhao Anans eyes widened. What was he talking about?
So, as per him,ing for a blind date meant agreeing to marry him? How stupid could this person be?
It was impossible to talk with him about anything.
How did this man be a mayor? Could he be the reason for B citys economy going down these days?
Zhao Anan could not stand it any more. She needed to get away from this man as soon as possible.
She was about to leave when the door of the elegant room was pushed open. Zhao Anan looked up and was delighted. Zheng Jing?!
Before she could give it any more thought, she turned to Yu Mo and said, Mr. Mayor, I am so sorry, but my boyfriend is here to pick me up. You can continue your conversation with my cousin. I am going now!
Before Yu Mo could react, Zhao Anan took hold of Zheng Jings arm. She ignored the startled look on Zheng Jings face and said, My darling, what took you so long? Someone just asked me to get married to him at the Civil Affairs Office. Good that you came, otherwise I would have been kidnapped. How scary!
Zhao Anan pinched hard on his waist, winking at him.
Zheng Jing felt goose bumps rising all over his body after hearing my darling. He almost puked out his breakfast after hearing her cloyingly sweet voice.
Zhao Anan was indeed not good at behaving like a sweet girl. She was a pretty girl, much prettier than the majority. But she was not suited to be a sweet girl.
He was sure that he had a bruise on his waist by now, considering how hard she had pinched him.
Zheng Jing tried to ignore the pain and nodded at Yu Mo with an embarrassed look. Mayor Yu, I am sorry about Anans unruly behaviour. Please, forgive her.
It is okay. She is not a sly person. But if I had known that she is your girlfriend, I would not have agreed to this blind date with her. Yu Mo still did not look pissed.
Zhao Anan looked at them in astonishment. You two know each other?
Zheng Jing could not embarrass Zhao Anan, so he could not exin to him about their rtionship. He squeezed out a smile and said, Yes, and for many years. We even worked on a case together.
Zhao Anan thought that it made sense. Yu Mo used to be a police officer and was director of the Public Security Bureau. They were not in the same city, but they could have coborated for a case.
She did not dwell upon it any longer and started to drag Zheng Jing outside the room. Darling, lets go now! My cousin needs to talk with Mr. Mayor and we dont need to be the third wheel here.
What she meant was that if they lingered on any longer, Jing Yichen would catch them and she would not be able to leave.
Zheng Jing of course knew what she meant. He had identallye to rescue her, anyways.
Chapter 580 - Unwillingness
Chapter 580: Unwillingness
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Zheng Jing obeyed Zhao Anan and followed her out, waving goodbye to Yu Mo. Mayor Yu, we are leaving now. I will treat you to a meal aspensation, next time.
After they walked out of the tea house, Zhao Anan released Zheng Jings arms, panting heavily. She ced a hand upon the car.
Damn it! Look at the guy my grandmother has found for me. He is a total pervert. He wants to marry me right after our first date. Isnt he afraid that I may have AIDS or something? Good that I managed to run out, otherwise I would have been doomed if my cousin found out about it and forced me to marry him today.
She would not marry Mu Qing or anyone else. Marriage was not a childs y, and she was not going to spend the rest of her days with a total stranger.
She could not imagine herself sleeping with anyone else except for Mu Qing.
She realised that Zheng Jing had really helped her a great deal, today.
Zhao Anan patted on Zheng Jings shoulders. Thanks, bro. If not for you, I would not have managed to escape by myself. You have no idea how cheeky that squib was!
Zheng Jing smiled brightly. You are wee. Its my pleasure!
Zhao Anan had given Yu Mo such a funny nickname. How bold she was!
Zhao Anan nodded vigorously. Yes, it should be your pleasure to help me. Also, now that you mention it, give me all your money, or I will look for it myself.
Zheng Jing was dumbfounded. This girl had be so obsessed with money these days that she started asking for it right after exchanging a couple of sentences.
I gave you a lot of money yesterday. You couldnt have spent all of that so fast, right? It was a deck of several thousand yuan. What did you do with it?
No more talking, just give me the money! Zhao Anan found that robbing a friend was much better than robbing a stranger. This morning, she had nearly tripped over her own trick.
One could never be too careful while robbing someone.
Helplessly, Zheng Jing took out his wallet and gave it to Zhao Anan.
If he hadnt done so, Zhao Anan would have truly lunged at him. She would not care about her being a woman and him being a guy and would move her hands all over his body.
It was a scary feeling!
He had not had a close rtionship with Zheng Lun till now, but had already gone through one with Zhao Anan!
She did not think of herself as a woman and kept touching him. She even looped her arms around his neck. When they were in a fight, she could do anything! She could even grab his manhood!
Luckily, he managed to dodge her every time, otherwise he would have been taken advantage of.
In the past, Zheng Jing always avoided her and never looked happy when they met each other.
She was a girl who kept punching people and that made Zheng Jing dislike herpletely. What was more, he could notunch a counter strike at her. All he could do was, stay away from her as much as possible.
But recently, he had promised Zheng Lun to help Zhao Anan and Mu Qing get married as soon as possible. So he was forced to follow Shangguan Nings script.
Hopefully in a couple of days, when he yed his biggest trick, Zhao Anan would not get so annoyed that she ended up killing him.
Zhao Anan was not looking satisfied at the moment. She said angrily, Why do you have such little money in your wallet? 726.8! Did you know that you would run into me, so you hid all the money?
Zheng Jing smiled bitterly, How could I have known that I would run into you? You robbed me of all of my money in the past two days. This is all that I am left with. I have not received my sry this month. Can you not fleece me any more?
Zhao Anan was not that dumb. She had guessed it right. He knew that he would run into her today, and hence only kept a few hundred yuan with him.
But Zheng Jing was not stupid enough to admit it.
Zhao Anan took the money, not leaving even a penny for Zheng Jing to be able to take the bus. Then she tossed the wallet back to him, and went to do some shopping and eat food.
But after only a few steps, she suddenly realized that she had left her certificate of employment at the tea house.
She could not return for that, else Jing Yichen would hold her there and force her to go to the Civil Affairs Office with that man.
She rolled her eyes, turned around and smiled at Zheng Jing. Officer Zheng, could you please do me a favor?
Zheng Jing got startled by the sudden change in her behavior. But he had to force himself to ask, What is it?
I left my certificate at the tea house, could you please help me fetch it? I cant go there because that squib is drooling over my looks and doesnt want me to leave him.
Hearing that she only needed to get something fetched, Zheng Jing let out a sigh of relief.
As long as he was not being asked to kill Yu Mo!
He really wanted to tell her that apart from Mu Qing, no one else would like her looks. He knew Yu Mos personality. He was not someone who would have lusted after Zhao Anan.
Zheng Jing went back to the tea house and fetched the certificate for Zhao Anan quickly. But he looked confused. Is this certificate really yours? Seriously? You are going to be the principal of University of X?
Would the employment rate of the school drop tremendously this year if Zhao Anan became the principal of University of X? Would the school fail to get any more students next year?
It must be someones impulsive decision to make a careless woman like her be the principal.
Zhao Anan grabbed the certificate and red at him in displeasure. Why? You dont think I am fit for the position? It was a wise decision to hire me as the principal. I will make sure that the University of X bes a top notch university in the world, leaving Harvard and Cambridge behind.
She was really boastful. Zheng Jing had to stop himself from rolling his eyes and said in a mellow tone, Yes, yes, with you as the principal, University of X will definitely be the No.1 university in the world.
Zhao Anan nodded in satisfaction, waved to him and said, Alright then, you have fulfilled your role. You can step back!
Zheng Jing did not move, but stood there with a straight back. He said loudly, How can I feel assured when you are out there roaming alone? Let me keep youpany.
Zhao Anan cast a look at him dubiously. Since when did you care about me so much?
Zheng Jing said without changing his expression, I have always cared about you. It is just that you have never noticed it.
Zhao Anan felt goosebumps breaking out on her body once again. She said disdainfully, Get out of here! Why are you being weird these days? It is so not you. If you are sick, go and get some drugs from Mu Qing. Stop behaving lustily on the street.
Zheng Jing got so annoyed by what Zhao Anan said.
He would not have followed her around, if he was not worried about her wandering alone.
It would have been infinitely better if he could y chess with the gentle Zheng Lun, instead!
Chapter 581 - Confession
Chapter 581: Confession
Zhao Anan did not decline Zheng Jings offer, only because he offered to keep herpany while shopping and eating and also agreed to pay for everything that she will buy. This way Zhao Anan will not need to spend on anything.
It was a wonderful proposal for Zhao Anan, who was currently obsessed with money.
So they went shopping, and Zhao Anan kept buying stuff, making Zheng Jing swipe the card again and again. He could feel his heart drip blood.
They even got mistaken for a couple, especially when they were at the restaurant.
The waitress advised them kind heartedly. Lady, what about ordering a couple set meal with your boyfriend? It is less costly than ordering dishes separately, and we offer free ice cream, too.
Zhao Anan might be obsessed with money, but she would not want to cause a misunderstanding. So she said with displeasure, instantly, He is not my boyfriend, he is my best friends boyfriend!
That waitresss smile stiffened.
How could there be such a shameless woman in this world?
She dared to bring her best friends boyfriend out for lunch and even shouted it out to the world.
Zheng Jing was speechless. This woman truly had no idea how to talk. She was causing more and more misunderstandings with her behaviour.
But he did not intend to exin anything. It was all a part of Shangguan Nings n and it would be better if there were many people misunderstanding them.
As long as Zheng Lun did not misunderstand them, everything was fine.
The guests sitting next to them started to whisper.
Oh god, this girl is terrible! She is having lunch with her best friends boyfriend.
We must watch out for our best friend. One shouldnt have such a best friend who will rob you of your boyfriend!
The man is horrible too. He is going around with two girls at the same time. His girlfriend would get very upset if she ever gets to know about it.
...
Zhao Anan could hear their whispers. She stood up abruptly and went up to them, trying to reason with them. Zheng Jing went after her and pulled her away.
Zheng Jing, stop pulling me away. I will kill these gossip mongers. They know nothing and only keep spreading rumours around. They are ruining my reputation. How can I ever fall for a strong man like you?
My deardy, cant you just calm down? Zheng Jing ignored her mean words and held her tightly so that she could not move. Cant you just say that we are ordinary friends? Why do you always have to add that I am your best friends boyfriend? That is the very cause of all the misunderstandings.
But you are my best friends boyfriend. Why cant I say that?! Zhao Anan got angry.
Her face flushed as if she were going to rip those people apart.
After she calmed down slightly, she suddenly realised that she was in Zheng Jings arms. She screamed instantly, Zheng Jing, you hooligan! Get your hands off me. You are touching my belly.
Zheng Jing released his arms. He had been in Zhao Ananspany for just half a day, but it was already much more exhausting than catching the worst criminals.
How on earth did Mu Qing survive with Zhao Anan for so many years? He was the actual strong man.
Zheng Lun was the best girl he had met. She never caused trouble and thought about him all the time.
Lets go to another ce. I more or less know what you like to eat, I can do the ordering there.
Zheng Jing had gotten really hungry after spending so much time with her.
Before Zhao Anan could protest, a strong man, even stronger than Zheng Jing, came and stood in front of her.
Anan. The man called out to her in a firm voice.
Zhao Anans eyes widened in surprise. She said, Muscr man? What are you doing here? No, no, wait! What did you just call me?
Knife Lee stared at her and called out in an expressionless voice. Anan.
Zhao Anan felt the hair on her neck stand up when she heard him calling her in this way. No, please, we are not that close. I wanted to take revenge, but now I cant since you are with my cousin. I will definitely create trouble for you when I get the next opportunity.
Knife Lee stayed silent for a moment and then suddenly said, How can I make you stop ming me any further? Just do what you want to.
Zhao Anan looked at him, weirdly. You are here to let me take my revenge from you? Why are you being so considerate?
Knife Lee shook his head. No, I am here for something else, but if you want to take revenge, I wont dodge. You can do anything you want.
Zhao Anan found the whole thing weird, so did Zheng Jing.
He got a bit confused. Did Shangguan Ning send Knife Lee to please Zhao Anan? He hadnt been informed about this part.
But this seemed to be the case. Otherwise Knife Lee would not have said such words.
Zhao Anan was confused as well. What are you really doing here?
Knife Lee looked at Zhao Anan calmly and said, I heard that you broke up with Doctor Mu. So are you single now?
Zhao Anan did not understand what was going on, so she nodded. Yes, we broke up. Why?
Well, I ] wanted to ask you if you can be my girlfriend?
Zhao Anans eyes widened. What did you just say?!
I know that it is a bit sudden. Knife Lee was normally very silent. But today, he had broken the rules.
But I am worried that you would get together with someone else if I dont say it now. He looked at Zheng Jing standing next to her. His words made Zheng Jing smile bitterly.
I have always liked you. I spent half a year with you and found you to be very nice. We are perfectly matched with each other. I want you to be my girlfriend. Can it happen?
Zhao Anan was petrified.
Knife Lee liked her? It was impossible!
Werent they the worst enemies? He was pathetic.
Zheng Jing found that although Knife Lee looked ordinary in daily life, he had turned out to be a good actor. What a skilled man!
Zhao Anan had not got so many confessions in her life, and she was not quite experienced in dealing with the situation.
Good that she had Zheng Jing with her.
She held Zheng Jings arm and looked at Knife Lee disdainfully. I wont be your girlfriend. You want me to be your girlfriend after you imprisoned me for half a year? Thats impossible. Also, I have a new boyfriend, now. Look at my new man, he is much better looking than my old boyfriend and you. Just leave from here, otherwise my new boyfriend will get angry.
Since when did Zheng Jing be her new boyfriend? He had no idea how to continue with what was happening.
Shangguan Ning had not included this part in her n.
What was this Knife Lee doing here with his confession?
Chapter 582 - Not You!
Chapter 582: Not You!
Zheng Jing seriously wanted to call Shangguan Ning and ask if he needed to act jealous or leave Zhao Anan to Knife Lee, instead.
But Zhao Anan kept winking at him, holding his arm tightly. She pinched his flesh and used him as a shield.
So he had no choice but to act as the new boyfriend for the time being.
Knife Lee, you may not know the reason why Anan broke up with Mu Qing. She did it because she has fallen for me. You have no chance with her, so you better go back to Master Jing.
Zheng Jing lied against his will, feeling extremely ufortable.
But Zhao Anan was satisfied by what Zheng Jing said. It was a reasonable sounding excuse.
Yes, he is right! I fell for Zheng Jing, and that was why I broke up with Mu Qing. As for you, I get annoyed even at the sight of you and truly want to hit you hard. If you dont want to get hurt, you must disappear now.
Zhao Anan felt a bit ufortable facing Knife Lee.
It was because he was a stubborn man. During the six months which they spent together, she had tried all methods which she could think of but failed to escape from his clutches. Knife Lee never lost his patience nor did he let her out of his sight for long. He did not even seem impacted by being cooped up indoors for so long.
He was both physically, and psychologically strong. He was definitely a very good guard who could keep the prisoner trapped forever.
Whenever Zhao Anan saw him, she would be reminded of the dark days she spent with him and feel that she would get imprisoned the very next second.
She only had Mu Qing in her heart, but even if she did not like Mu Qing and even if there was no other man left in the world, she would still never be Knife Lees girlfriend.
Seeing Zhao Anan clutching Zheng Jings arm, Knife Lee frowned and asked in a disbelieving voice, Do I really have no chance? You are the first woman I have ever liked. I will definitely be nice to you and keep you safe.
If it had been someone elses confession, Zhao Anan might have felt a bit conceited for being so charming.
But Knife Lees words made her feel extremely ufortable. She felt suffocated and was going to spit out blood any moment now.
She was way too lucky in love these days, wasnt she?
Sometime back, there was a mayor who wanted to marry her and now a well-muscled guy asked her to be her boyfriend.
Was she going to get another proposal tomorrow?
Dont joke with me. Why would I fall for you after you imprisoned me for half a year? I didnt bite you to death because you are my cousins man now. Get out of my sight. I dont want to see you anymore. Zhao Anan scolded Knife Lee. She had never bent down in front of him, not when she was imprisoned, not now, when she was free.
Unexpectedly, however, Knife Lee did not get angry but said, I am not kidding! I was forced to imprison you. It was my job, not because I wanted to. And when I imprisoned you, I did not mistreat you and took great care of you. I truly like you, maybe because we spent so much time together.
Zhao Anan was speechless.
What did he mean by taking great care of her? He was lying tantly.
He had given her nothing else except potatoes and beef to eat. She had been afraid that she would turn into a potato herself!
What was more, he often starved her after she tried to run away, making her faint because of hunger.
Did all this mean liking someone?
If Knife Lee had not looked so strong, Zhao Anan would have thrown herself onto him and hit him hard.
She knew how strong he could be. When she was imprisoned, she had been in some fights with Knife Lee. Every time she tried to hit him, her fists would hurt whilst he was unaffected.
He was a scary man, someone whom Zhao Anan did not dare to hit even if she talked fiercely.
Unlike Zheng Jing, Knife Lee was an iron board, and he did not know how to take care of women. Zheng Jing would at least hold back and not hurt her for real.
As Zhao Anan thought of the pain she had gone through, she could not help but get really annoyed. She bellowed loudly. Go away! I dont like you at all. And you should not like me either. I am merciful enough not to make my cousin break your leg. Are you really tired of living that you came to irritate me?!
Knife Lee was well aware of how fierce Zhao Anans words could get. He showed no reaction on his face.
As a matter of fact, he truly missed the half year he had spent with Zhao Anan, because that had been the best period of his life.
He did not need to go out and fight, and he did not need to think about when he could sleep and how much he could eat. In the past half a year, he had no wounds apart from the scratches given by Zhao Anans nails and he didnt mind them at all.
Honestly, when he was with the gangsters, he had spent days and nights fighting and trying to capture territories. He would get wounded and bleed every day.
But his life had been cozy in those six months.
All he did was spend day and night with Anan peacefully, listen to her chatter and the popr songs she sung in a nice voice. Sometimes he even felt happy to have a small fight with her, because it acted like a rxation exercise for him.
He had hoped that he would get to spend the rest of his life in this way.
He had met several women, but none of them aroused his desire for protection. Only Zhao Anan was the one whom he wanted to protect with all his might.
She was carefree, smart and a bright ssh of color in his boring and tedious life.
He wanted to confess to Zhao Anan a long time ago, but had not dared. When he found that Mu Qing and she were together, and Mu Qing spoiled her rotten, he had no choice but to hide his feelings.
Now that they had broken up, he came to confess his feelings.
But he had not expected that Zhao Anan would fall for Zheng Jing.
Didnt Tiger mention that there was a special feeling between Zheng Jing and his sister Zheng Lun and that they were more than just siblings.
Seeing Zhao Anan stand so close to Zheng Jing, Knife Lee could not help but confront Zheng Jing. Which woman do you truly like?
Chapter 583 - Love Rival
Chapter 583: Love Rival
Eh?
Zheng Jing, the usually smart man, was confused by what Knife Lee said.
Knife Lee was not following the script. He even asked him about the woman whom he actually liked.
Zheng Jing threw a look at Zhao Anan who was equally surprised and said in a sincere voice, Of course I like Anan. There is no one else!
So you dont like Zheng Lun? I saw you holding hands with Zheng Lun in the elevator a couple of days ago. Why are you denying it now?
He was not only strong, but also a very observant person, as well.
Zheng Jing was rendered speechless by Knife Lee.
Of course, he liked Zheng Lun, and even pretending to like Zhao Anan, was a great deal of work. Hence, he could not bring himself to say that he did not like Zheng Lun.
He studied Knife Lee s serious expressions. Finally, using his judgement as a police officer, he realized that Knife Lees arrival had not been arranged by Shangguan Ning. He seemed to havee here of his own ord.
He had really fallen for Zhao Anan!
Seeing Zheng Jingpse into silence, Zhao Anan was worried that he would admit that there was nothing going on between them, so she said anxiously, Knife Lee, what is wrong with you? I told you that I dont like you, I like Zheng Jing. You cant keep badgering me, otherwise I would not be polite to you any more.
He doesnt like you. He is lying to you. He and his sister are a couple. Anan, ept me. I promise that I will not fall for anyone else. Knife Lee did not want to give up. He genuinely thought that Zhao Anan was the best girl for him and didnt want to miss this chance.
If Zheng Jing had been true to Zhao Anan, he might have given up. But Zheng Jing was courting two girls at the same time. Zhao Anan would never be happy with him.
Knife Lee felt that he couldnt allow the girl, whom he liked, to get hurt.
Zhao Anan gritted her teeth in annoyance.
What was wrong with this man?
How unlucky she must be to be liked by him?
She really did not want to see this pervert, nor did she want to speak with him. When she had been imprisoned by him, she swore that she would tear him apart when she got out.
But then he became Jing Yichens man, and that stopped her from taking revenge. But she had no intentions of being nice to him ever.
She stopped pretending and said, Yes, Zheng Jing doesnt me and I dont like him. But that has nothing to do with you. Get out of here now. You should be keeping my sister-inw and nephew safe. Stop skipping your work.
I have three days off every month. Today is the first day of my leave. I am not shirking my duties. Knife Lee exined calmly and then said, Since you do not like Zheng Jing, then I can court you, right?
He let out a sigh of relief. Good that Zhao Anan was not with Zheng Jing. This meant that he had a chance!
Zhao Anan rolled her eyes in frustration. She held Zheng Jings arm and went out, Lets go and eat something. If I have to see this face any further, I would not be able to eat any more.
Seeing them leave, Knife Lee did not run after them.
He did not know other women, but he knew Zhao Anan well due to the close proximity during those months. He knew that Zhao Anan had lost her patience right now, so he did not want to provoke her any further.
He had never courted a girl before. As a result, he had no idea of how to make Zhao Anan happy.
Standing on the same spot for a long while, Knife Lee finally decided to turn to Tiger to seek advice. He felt that Tiger seemed to know a great deal about rtionships.
At lunch, Zheng Jing excused himself to go to the bathroom and called Shangguan Ning and updated her on the happenings.
Shangguan Ning was also astonished to find that Knife Lee liked Zhao Anan!
Shangguan Ning had not expected such a turn of events. Knife Lee would court Zhao Anan with his own ability if he really wanted to.
If Zhao Anan was so easily swayed, then Mu Qing would not have to wait for her for eleven years.
Knife Lee was definitely going to face a lot of trouble.
Courting Zhao Anan was an endless path of agony. Hopefully he could turn back when he realized the impossible mission.
Zhao Anan and Zheng Jing ate a spicy hot pot. Anans lips turned red, and sweat drops formed on her forehead. But she was in a very good mood, and forgot about Knife Leepletely.
She did not keep the disturbing things inside for long, nor did she take others words seriously.
She did not believe that Knife Lee had been serious, nor did she think that he would keep courting her.
While eating, she forgot about Knife Lee and even Mu Qing. She loved good food, it made her forget about her problems.
Mu Qing was sitting in a corner of the hot pot restaurant, and watched the scene helplessly.
How heartless was she! He could not eat or sleep and was worried about her while she was having a good time with Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing had already noticed that Mu Qing entered the restaurant sometime back. He subtly gave him a not-to-worry look.
Mu Qing knew that as long as Zheng Jing was with her, he did not need to worry about anything. He would look after her safety, and well-being.
What a good brother he was! He spared no efforts in helping them, spending money and time just to bring them together. Most importantly, he knew that Zheng Jing would never fall for Zhao Anan.
Mu Qing felt a bit assured after seeing that Zhao Anan was in a good situation. So he went out of the restaurant to meet Knife Lee.
Zheng Jing had texted him sometime back informing him that Knife Lee was courting Zhao Anan and that he should smoothen things out, because he could not help in this situation.
Anyways, it was not the first time for Mu Qing to deal with his love rival. There were several people who had been interested in Zhao Anan in the past.
Most of them were removed by Mu Qing even before Zhao Anan got to know about them. He could not tolerate if someoneid eyes upon his woman.
Knife Lee, however, had hidden himself well. He must have fallen for her when they were in London. Well, he couldnt me the man. Zhao Anan was so adorable that any man would have fallen for her after being with her for so long.
Knife Lee spent half a year with her alone, and it was natural that he started liking her. Otherwise, he would have wondered about Knife Lee not being normal.
Chapter 584 - Jealousy
Chapter 584: Jealousy
When Mu Qing had rescued Zhao Anan back then and gotten to know that Knife Lee never touched her, he had found it weird. He had thought that it was because he had a strong willpower and did not get distracted by women.
But the fact was that he had fallen for Zhao Anan ages ago.
Bah, he was definitely going to put out Knife Lees burning me.
He was still far from making the n to marry Zhao Anan a sess, and this Knife Lee had suddenly appeared to make a mess of things.
Mu Qing picked up the phone and called him. They fixed a ce and decided to meet.
Upon reaching the ce, Mu Qing said to him in a straightforward manner, Knife Lee, stop thinking about Anan. She is my woman, was in the past and will be in the future!
Knife Lee was confused and said, Didnt you break up with Anan already? She told me that herself. Why cant I court Anan? Anan is the one who can turn me down if she wants to, not you.
Mu Qing got annoyed by the way he was addressing her.
Anan was not the name for everybody to use.
What was Knife Lee thinking when he called her in such an intimate way?
He should have hit Knife Lee hard when he rescued Anan.
This man had no idea about his position in Zhao Anans life. He had been with her for so long. He wont allow anyone to interfere with them.
Honestly, he was so good looking and Zhao Anan still did not want to marry him. This guy was not even that handsome. He looked like a hooligan, one whom Anan would not take to, at all!
Who said that I broke up with Anan? She was just joking. You are stupid enough to have believed her words. Mu Qing bellowed hard, foregoing his usual image as a gentleman.
Mu Qing could not control himself when it came to Anan.
He could be calm regarding everything else, like fame or money, but he could not stand it when someone elseid his eyes upon his woman.
Knife Lee was Jing Yichens man who was supposed to keep Shangguan Ning safe, else he would have given him a needle so that he could not get off the bed for the next two weeks.
Also, you are not allowed to address Anan in this manner. Only her close friends can address her like this. You are not qualified.
Knife Lee was not pleased. He frowned, and the muscle on his arms bulged as if he was getting ready to fight with Mu Qing. I will only believe what Anan says. You must have mistreated her, because of which she broke up with you. Since you have broken up with her, you must stay away from her. You have no right to stop me from courting her.
Mu Qing choked up with anger. This man dared to ask him to stay away from Anan?
She is my woman. Of course I have the right. I am the only person she has liked throughout her life. You better give up. She wont fall for you, and you are not allowed to pester her any more.
If you still like Anan, then we canpete with each other. But I am more likely to win, because Anan has stopped liking you. I will treat her very well. Knife Lee seemed to have a good temper. Even when he was shouted at by Mu Qing, he did not get furious.
Competing with each other?
Mu Qing sneered. Who would be interested inpeting with him?
Zhao Anan was his, always!
He was just going along with Shangguan Nings n to make Zhao Anan fall into the trap, otherwise he would have never broken up with her.
Mu Qing was not worried that Zhao Anan would fall for Knife Lee. He was very confident that no one else in the world would love her more than he did, and Zhao Anan was aware of that too. But he was not happy that someone kept pestering Zhao Anan.
He was not as carefree as Zhao Anan and easily got jealous of the men around her.
If a man was deeply in love, he could get jealous much more easily than women.
After arguing with each other for quite some time, they ended up being confident about themselves when neither was able to persuade the other. Both of them left the ce in anger.
Zheng Jing kept Zhao Ananpany for the entire day and when he drove her back to the Zhao Family, the Old Lady received him with enthusiasm.
Zhao Anan had been worried that her grandmother would get to know about her causing trouble on the blind date today. So, she behaved obediently and kept following Zheng Jing around, fearing that she would be hit by grandmother after he left.
But it seemed that her grandmother had focused her attention on Zheng Jing. She not only asked him to stay for dinner, but also enquired about his ancestors and family background.
As far as Zhao Anan remembered, grandmother never met Zheng Jing or knew who he was.
But the Old Lady had already met him at Shangguan Nings and shared a meal together. They might not be close, but they were not strangers, either.
They were chatting pleasantly, and that confused Zhao Anan.
She took the opportunity and sneaked back to her room. She quietly locked the door and fell asleep.
The following morning, she slept tillte and was woken up by the ringing of the phone.
Zhao Anan hated it when someone interrupted her sleep, so she shut the phone down and went back to sleep.
It was not until the servant came to knock at the door that Zhao Anan woke up unwillingly from the bed.
Stop disturbing me, I want to sleep!
Aunt Qian heard her voice and said anxiously, Lady, you must go to the university now. They just called and said that it is your first day as the principal, and you must reach there earlier than others. It seems that you need to give some speech or something...
Before Aunt Qian finished speaking, a scream arose from the bedroom.
Ahhhhhhh! Zhao Anan was totally awake now.
Jesus! It was her first day as the principal. She had totally forgotten about it.
No way! If she forgot to show up today in front of the school, she suspected that her cousin would kill her.
Zhao Anan got up, washed her face, and brushed her teeth at jet speed. She skipped breakfast, put on the professional uniform which Aunt Qian had prepared for her, not caring that the uniform included a skirt. Then she got into the Rolls-Royce and dashed off towards University of X.
But it was not until she reached there that she realized that she needed to deliver a speech in front of the whole school. She totally forgot about it, and had not prepared anything.
Even if she had a draft prepared, she would not have been brave enough to read it out loud in front of these people. Her mind was totally nk.
Damn, she was doomed!
Chapter 585 - Something Happened to Jing Yichen
Chapter 585: Something Happened to Jing Yichen
The truth was that Zhao Anan did not need to deliver any speech when she took over the office. All she needed to do was conduct meetings with the top directors of the school, so that everyone would get to know her.
But in order to make sure that she felt responsible towards her job and not take it easy, Jing Yichen had arranged the whole speech requirement for her.
Zhao Anan called Jing Yichen in a panic, but he did not answer. How weird!
Helpless, she got out of the car and was about to enter the campus. There were several people waiting anxiously outside the campus, and they went up to her as soon as she arrived.
Hello, are you Principal Zhao? One of the men asked courteously.
Zhao Anan was not used to her new title, and forced herself to nod. Yes I am.
My name is Jin Ning, and I am your assistant. I will be responsible to pass on your order. I believe that Master Jing has already told you about it.
Hearing that Jin Ning was her assistant, Zhao Anan was delighted and said instantly, Hi, I may have to trouble you a lot in the future!
It is my duty to share your burden. Tell me if you need anything in the future. But now, we must head to the hall where the whole school is waiting for you.
Jin Ning had gotten anxious, but he did not dare urge Zhao Anan to hurry. He reminded her in a polite, indirect way.
Actually, Zhao Anan was more anxious than him. Even if they went to the hall, she would lose her face.
She really wanted to sneak away.
Well, Assistant Jin, my cousin... Master Jing said that I need to make a speech, but I am not ready with it. Do you have any tips that you can share with me, right now?
Zhao Anan had no other choice but to turn to Jin Ning for help.
She wanted to say something nice on the podium and finish it quickly, despite the possibility that she might get embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, however, Jin Ning brought out two pages and gave them to Zhao Anan. Principal Zhao, I have your speech ready here.
Overjoyed, Zhao Anan went with Jin Ning to the hall and delivered a massive speech for the first time in her life.
...
Shangguan Ning was very worried when Jing Yichen did not returnst night.
Ever since they got married, Jing Yichen had never spent a night out apart from when he was on overseas business trips. And even if he was on a trip, he would call her before he fell asleep.
But he did not returnst night, nor did he call her. When Shangguan Ning called him, no one answered the call.
Even Tigers phone was out of reach. Shangguan Ning could not fall asleep without Jing Yichen around, so she sat up the entire night with Jing Rui in her arms.
Jing Yichen had told her yesterday around lunch time that he was going to deal with the Tang Family. But he had run into trouble and the investigation did not go well.
And now he was not reachable. Shangguan Ning felt panic set in. Had it not been for feeding Jing Rui, she would not have been able to eat a thing.
Even then, she ate very little the night before. At breakfast, she forced herself to drink a cup of milk.
Lee Duo along with his men, was already searching for him, but they hadnt seen or heard from Jing Yichen yet.
Shangguan Nings heart sank.
She felt that her body was shivering on that hot summer day, and there was numbness in her limbs.
She could not believe that something would happen to Jing Yichen.
He was capable, smart and strong. No one could beat him, not even the Tang Family.
But if he was fine, why was he not answering her call? And what had happened to Tigers phone?
At 8 in the morning, Jing Zhongxiu opened the door and came in.
Shangguan Ning stood up with Jing Rui in her arms at the sight of him. Tears were trickling down her face. She said, Dad...
Jing Zhongxiu patted her shoulder and said calmly, Dont worry, Yichen is fine! It is just that he may not be able to send any messages to you, for the time being. Bring Jing Rui to the Jing Family now. He may not be in danger, but just in case, you better not stay here alone.
Agonized, Shangguan Ning said between sobs, Okay.
She packed a few things quickly and followed Jing Zhongxiu along with Jing Rui and the nanny in tow.
On the way, Shangguan Ning did not speak a word. Jing Zhongxiu was busy making calls. It was stressful inside the car.
Only Jing Rui was unaware of the happenings. He was snuggled in Shangguan Ninga arms, smiling at her.
She tried hard to stop herself from crying, and held Jing Ruis hands, praying inwardly for Jing Yichens safety.
When they reached the Jing Family, Mo Lan and Jing Tianyuan were both there. They were aware of the fact that Jing Yichen was out of reach. Mo Lan looked worried but Jing Tianyuan was poised.
Jing Zhongxiu repeated almost exactly what Jing Zhongxiu had told her. Dont worry, Yichen will be fine. Take some rest. He will be back soon.
Shangguan Ning forced a smile, but still felt rather stressed.
Time ticked away slowly, and every minute was a torture for Shangguan Ning.
At noon, there was a text message on Shangguan Nings phone. It was from Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning opened it quickly but what was written inside, made her heart drop into the bottom of the valley. Cant find Jing Yichen, right? Youe to me alone, and I can make sure that you see him. But if you are with someone else, your husband will be dead before tomorrow.
Shangguan Ning quickly went to Jing Zhongxiu. She was not that stupid. It only happened in the movies how only one person went to rescue the other.
What if it was a trap? She would only be adding to Jing Yichens troubles. She needed to discuss it with Jing Zhongxiu.
After reading the text, Jing Zhongxiu said calmly, I have already located Yichen, but the enemy has been preparing for this day for years, so he has made sure everything is very well nned. We may not be able to find Yichen even if we were to go to that ce.
Jing Zhongxiu did not look anxious, but he was both anxious and furious inside.
Shangguan Ning had no idea what the Tang Family had done but he did.
Dad, I will pretend to go there alone, and you can have your men follow me on the sly, ok? Shangguan Ning was no longer able to conceal her worry. She really wanted to go and look for Jing Yichen, immediately.
Without thinking further, Jing Zhongxiu approved of Shangguan Nings suggestion. He was capable of protecting at least Shangguan Ning.
Chapter 586 - Yu Mo
Chapter 586: Yu Mo
It was dark, cold, and silent.
It was a hot summer day with scorching sun above the ground but the world underneath it was totally different.
Jing Yichen woke up, and felt a bit dizzy when he saw where he was.
It was arge cer without any sunlight. He could hardly make out the surroundings in the faint light which was there in the room. There were bodies lying around him, and all of them were missing a limb. Scattered fingers, ears, eyeballs, arms and legs were everywhere.
He was also covered in blood, and his white shirt had turned deep red. It carried a strong scent of blood.
He seemed to be in a living hell, where instead of death, endless torment awaited him.
Jing Yichen could not help but start puking.
It took him back to eleven years earlier, except that beside him was not Tang Yun, but a seriously injured Tiger.
Master! Tiger was next to Jing Yichen. He had wanted to reach out to him but did not dare because one touch would make him vomit even further.
Compared to eleven years ago, Jing Yichen was much more psychologically strong than before, and smarter too.
He tried hard to stop himself from removing the blood soaked shirt and pants and stood up despite the difort. Then he shouted in a lethal voice, Come out now!
Jing Yichens voice echoed across the spacious cer.
Hahahaha...
A wildughter arose from the darkened corner of the cer. Theugh was proud, and lethal.
Theughtersted for a long time, but the man did not show up.
Jing Yichen, you have lived eleven years more than you should have. Today is the time for you to leave earth. A polite voice reached him in the darkness.
No, it will be you who departs today, Tang Shunian! Jing Yichen said coldly. His face had turned pale against the faint light.
Oh how nice that you know my real name. Even I seem to have almost forgotten it. It looks like you figured out what happened eleven years ago.
From the darkness came out an averagely built man, dressed in a Chinese tunic suit.
His leather shoes were a brand new handmade pair. The shoes stomped upon the bloody limbs on the floor, emitting a scary, cracking sound. All this while, he looked as if he was simply taking a walk in his backyard.
As the faint light shone upon him, his handsome face came into focus.
But, I do not like the name, Tang Shunian.
Seeing Jing Yichen covered with blood and looking pale, Tang Shunian seemed to be in a good mood. He said calmly, I like Yu Mo. Oh, and your cousin has given me a nickname C squib. She is a bit different from you, slightly stupid, but a lot of fun.
Tang Shunian took a step forward as he crushed an eyeball, and revealed a cruel smile. You, on the other hand, are indeed heartless. You knew that there was something wrong with me, but you still made her test me. I had thought that Zheng Jing was there for your cousin, but you were the one who arranged for him toe. Otherwise, I could have caught her as well to see both of you have some fun here. It would have been delightful.
If Zhao Anan had known that her date was such a scary and shameless man, she would not have agreed to go for it.
What a pity that I cant see you have fun with women. I can only watch you die with these men. What we did not finish eleven years ago can be resumed today. How much longer will you be able to withstand this time?
Jing Yichen grew calm gradually, as he saw Tang Shunian babbling. It seemed as if he had not talked with anyone for years.
He tried hard to suppress the dark memories of the past and stared at Tang Shunian coldly. I suspected you ages ago, but was never sure, since I didnt have any old grudges with you, and you had no motivation toe after me with so many resources and power. Later, I got to know that the people of the Tang Family did not die because of the Jing Family, but because of you!
Tang Shunian pped approvingly and said, Yes, everyone in the Tang Family died because of me. Only Tang Yun, the brainless woman, was killed by you. I had not expected that an annoying woman like her could live for so long. It was only because you had a lot ofpassion towards her.
But there is a grudge between us. Tang Shunian stopped ten meters away from Jing Yichen.
The smile on his face gradually turned sinister, making him look crazy.
Tang Family used to be a noble family, then it became poor overnight. I used to be a rich master, butter, I lived as if I was in hell. Tang Shunians face was full of hatred.
I was trapped, and was forced to serve those old women and men. What a disgusting experience!
Tang Shunian recalled what he had been through, making his eyes turn red. He looked furious and in enormous pain.
The Tang Family had not been one of the top families back then, but it was wealthy. Tang Shunian used to enjoy a luxurious life, making use of his power to live in a carefree manner.
But the Tang Family betrayed Family Jing, and because of the pressure of the Jing Family, they fell from heaven to hell at a fast speed.
Tang Shunian naturally became a rat on the street, hated by everyone. He was no longer a wealthy master.
Because of his good looks, he soon became the toy of some wealthy women.
Tang Shunian was affected psychologically because of the huge change in his circumstances.
Whenever he thought of his cruel life in the past, he went crazy and lost his senses.
But right now, he calmed himself down, and even showed a slight smile.
Luckily, my nice face and sweet voice helped me serve people who paid me a great deal. I did not need to look for food from the dumpster any longer!
Chapter 587 - Jing Yichens Past (Part One)
Chapter 587: Jing Yichens Past (Part One)
I finally managed to move around as a rich master with the money I got from the old men and the women. If it had not been because of Family Jing, I did not have to lead a pretentious life. I used to have dozens of servants at home and didntck money before your family destroyed mine.
As Tang Shunian was speaking, he became annoyed and the veins on his forehead popped out.
Only his voice sounded full of joy.
It was the happiness of anticipating his revenge.
I kidnapped everyone who once tormented me and tossed them into the cer, fed them some garbage so they could survive. Before they died, I chopped their limbs so they became disabled, and could feel more pain than I felt years ago. But they died way too fast. I was bored.
They tormented me for so long and I still managed to live on. But these people were simply too weak. So I thought of a better game. I kidnapped their children, injected them with all kinds of drugs, no matter whether they were men or women, old or young. They all went through a painful experience. I taped the whole process, and sold it to their parents for a great deal of money.
Tang Shunian threw a look at Jing Yichen and showed a horrifying smile, Just as what I did to you back then. Haha! But when I sold the video to Jing Zhongxiu, he paid me nothing.
Hearing his words, Jing Yichen started to puke again.
This was the exact same ce where he had been trapped eleven years ago.
Jing Yichens painful memories surged up, weakening his willpower. His sight grew blurry and drowned his senses.
He was 23 years old back then.
He had been through many difficult and painful training sessions, so he was like a sword in a sheath, sharp, cold and ruthless.
He had turned numb and had no feelings towards anyone after spending so much time trying to survive on a desertednd.
Until Tang Yun appeared, who had made a difference in his life. No one was like her, who was bold enough to stalk him and follow him around.
She looked beautiful with well shaped eyebrows and a nice voice, just like a ck-nape oriole in the trees.
She was like a pretty maiden when she smiled.
He was now aware that this girl was not as innocent as she looked but someone with a cruel heart.
Once, she killed a stray dog which she used to feed, behind his back, because that dog kept following her. She did not want to waste time feeding a dog after it had done its duty of making her look like a kind person.
She used to approach Zhao Anan on purpose and when she found that Zhao Anan did not want to speak with her, she would get into a fight with her. Every time, she would hit her so hard that she had to be hospitalized.
But back then, he was way too young to see through people.
He had thought that the reason why Tang Yun approached him and pestered him was only because she liked him.
She would confess her feelings to him every single day and tell him how much she liked him. She would also do all the stupid things which a girl smitten with a boy, would do.
He had never expected that she had approached him, because she was conspiring behind his back.
She followed him every single day. She went wherever he went and it seemed that she always had a way to find him.
One day, she was captured by some hooligans and had cried out for help. He had hesitated for a few seconds before he went to rescue her.
This girl had followed him for so many days, and even if he did not know her that well, she was the only person whom he knew.
He was used to feeling powerful and conceited. He had thought that no one would dare to irritate him, yet he fell into someone elses trap the moment he started fighting.
He and Tang Yun were drugged and brought into the dark cer.
In the cer, there were corpses everywhere of different genders and ages. The cer smelled rotten, making people puke.
When Jing Yichen woke up and saw the scene, he frowned but didnt panic.
He had seen way too many corpses and it did not shake his willpower. What made him ufortable was the disgusting smell in the air.
He had always lived a clean life, and filthy things would make him ufortable.
Next to him was Tang Yun whoy on the ground, naked and unconscious. She had a beautiful body and it wasden with a lot of wounds at that moment.
He removed his coat to shield her body. He was about to leave when four strong men stood in the way.
Two fine goods today! Haha!
I have already tasted that one, so docile. This pretty man looks lethal, he must be a strong one.
I like strong ones. Mens screams are much more exciting than that of women. Haha!
I havent tasted such a well-shaped and beautiful man in a long time. Why isnt the drug working on him? I just cant wait!
What they did not know was that his body had been transformed by his father and normal drugs did not work on him.
But he could feel the slight change in his body. It seemed to be heating up. He wanted to find somewhere to vent the feeling. He was getting dizzy as well.
He must have been injected with hallucinogens.
However, his willpower was stronger than that of normal people, so he suppressed the unease inside his body.
He looked at the four men coldly, and spent only one minute, finishing their lives.
He was used to killing people quickly.
He was not a hitman, but was not much different in skill sets.
His short but tough 23 years of life had been filled with all kinds of knowledge. He was smart and diligent, and was able to acquire every skill, quickly.
But however skilled he was, he was alone.
In the cer, there was a steady stream of strong men surging in. None of them was carrying a gun. They were just trying to drain his energy out rather than kill him.
The more corpses there were, the more tired he was.
Also, the drugs sweet, cloying smell arose in the air, and he could not control the uneasiness inside his body for much longer.
The men who came towards him were really aggressive and he was starting to feel the pressure.
Chapter 588 - Jing Yichens Past (Part Two)
Chapter 588: Jing Yichens Past (Part Two)
His shirt, which had been clean and white, was soaked with blood now. Someone reached out for him, speaking filthy words.
Jing Yichen got extremely furious, feeling disgusted and humiliated, wanting to kill everyone present in the room.
But there were way too many people around him!
He was strong, and for the longest time, he throttled and broke the neck of anyone who approached him, killing them immediately.
But after a point, he got increasingly tired and his energy drained out, leaving him dizzy. He finally sank to the floor.
What awaited him was endless torment.
Rough hands started to grope him, trying to stimte his dorment desire. He felt nauseated and finally started to puke.
The men surrounded him, and ripped off his clothes. Heypletely naked amidst a pile of corpses in a pool of blood.
There were an uncountable number of hands touching him, making him feel agonized.
He could not tell how many men were there but everyone was naked, andughing in a disgusting way. Craziness had entered that dark cer.
Some of them started to touch and feel their friends intimately. The drugs had made them lose their rationality, and they were not able to distinguish one from another.
A man lunged at him with malicious intent. Jing Yichen used hisst ounce of strength and squeezed that mans throat, allowing that mans cold body to cover his own.
The corpse disgusted him, but it provided a cover, shielding him from the crazy men who did not move the dead body. His presence went unnoticed by the drugged men who had turned to others to vent their desire.
He copsed out of tiredness, and the presence of the drugs in his system, not to mention the crazy environment.
If possible, he would have chosen to die.
There was nothing in this world that was worth going back to, after this. He had been living a numb and cold life, and death did not frighten him, instead it held a promise of relief.
His life had been devoid of colours for so long. It did not matter to him whether he was alive or dead. But it was humiliating to be attacked and tormented by a group of men.
If he was going to die, he would kill everyone else first!
He had never lost a battle in his life, and would not allow himself to be defeated by those losers.
He fell asleep in the nightmare and woke up again in the nightmare.
Blood was everywhere amongst the mountain of bodies, reminding him of what had happened.
He had already forgotten about Tang Yun. He was tired and famished.
Without hesitation, he bit open the artery of a body which was yet to stiffen. He drank the still warm blood like a vampire to fill his empty stomach.
He had eaten everything when he was alone in the wilderness. He even had consumed animals blood.
If he did not drink the animals blood, he would have been torn apart by the animals and be their meal, instead.
It was the first time for him to drink a humans blood, but he was already feeling numb towards the difference, because it was simply a means of survival for him.
An hourter, he had gained back some of his strength.
Naked, he stood up, blood staining his body.
He was not looking for clothes. The worldly things had lost their meaning for him, as of now. He did not want to be in those filthy clothes, anyways.
He wanted to find the exit so that he could escape.
At this moment, a womans frightful scream arose.
Ah!
He turned around and remembered Tang Yun, who had been caught along with him.
Or, to be more precise, she was caught because of him.
She was still alive!
He had thought that those strong men thought her to be dead and maybe she was able to escape the horrible attack.
What he did not know was that Tang Yuns identity was fake. Her family was Tang, and she was one of the owners of these people, whom no one would dare touch.
After Tang Yun screamed, she passed out again seeing the frightening scene in front of her.
He only took one look at her.
He did not care if this woman was alive or dead.
If it had not been her, he would not have needed to go through so much torment.
His wounds had been touched by the men and were beginning to get infected. The bacteria was causing fever, as well.
He dragged his body and tried to find the exit.
The cer waspletely dark, and his watch had already been lost in the fight. He was not sure how much time had passed. All he knew was that he managed to find the exit eventually.
Tang Yun had already woken up. With his coat over her, she followed him out. She drank the blood with him, trying not to behave like a spoiled little girl.
That made him change his perspective towards her.
Not everyone could tolerate the sense of disgust and guilt while indulging in cannibalism. Many people would rather die than drink another persons blood. They tried with all their might to open the heavy iron gate of the cer and finally got to smell the fresh air.
When the sun shone upon them, they could not even open their eyes.
It took Jing Yichen a long while before he got used to the bright sunlight.
Muchter, when he saw the surroundings did he realize that the cer, where he had been trapped for numerous days, was located halfway to a hill.
No wonder the cer was sorge, and no wonder it took him ages to find the exit.
However, even if he found the exit, it was still very difficult to get out of this ce.
After a few steps ahead of the exit, was a high cliff and a long, surging river beneath it.
There was no escape!
He realized now that the enemy had guided him towards this exit on purpose. This wasnt the real one.
He could either jump down off the cliff and die or go back to the cer and be tormented to death.
Tang Yuns frightened voice reached him. What are we going to do? Are we going to die? We have nowhere to go. But I dont want to stay here with those monsters.
She had just said the words when a wildughter arose from the top of the hill. Hahaha, you poor couple, you are definitely going to die now! If you want to get out of here, you cane and satisfy me, girl!
Chapter 589 - Jing Yichens Past (Part Three)
Chapter 589: Jing Yichens Past (Part Three)
The cruel words echoed across the hill and the wildughter of men could be heard everywhere.
But the speaker couldnt be seen.
Tang Yun shrank inwardly in fright. She had nowhere to hide.
Or you can live, but your boyfriend must die!
The wild voice arose again, shaking the entire valley.
He is ruthless and has killed so many of my brothers. I will definitely make my brothers take their revenge. Haha, he is the strongest man I have ever met, and can definitely withstand dozens of brothers who will pounce upon him!
The serious injury and the fever had made Jing Yichen be unsteady on his feet.
His hair was dripping blood. He was not even sure if that was his own or others.
The provocative voice made him feel disgusted, and the horrible stink made him feel like puking, yet again.
He had never been in such a mess before!
He had never been so humiliated like this before!
His irond willpower had been destroyed and he wanted to kill himself.
But he did not choose to go that way. He had been trained for dozens of years and his mental strength could make him forget all kinds of negative emotions and support him physically. He sucked a breath in and thought of a way to escape this hell.
He took a look at the deep valley, and thought that maybe the surging river could help him survive.
The enemy seemed to have seen through his intention, so he bellowed furiously, You want to escape? Thats impossible! You will surely die if you jump. Many people already did. Each man I have caught, wants to run away in this manner, but none has seeded till date. You bettere back to the cer and let my brothers have fun, or I will shoot you now!
But Jing Yichen ignored his words. Naked, he came to the edge of the valley and observed the scene with thest remaining part of his senses.
A loud noise scattered the rocks next to his feet, causing them to embed into his already wounded feet.
Fresh blood trickled out from his feet, and the pain went straight to his head.
But he was calm and did not even frown.
Tang Yun, however, got so frightened standing next to him. She screamed and came to stand in front of him as a shield. She shouted at the enemy. Dont shoot him! Please dont! Dont hurt him. You can do anything to me!
The wild voice arose again. Haha, I never expected that you are so devoted to your boyfriend, but he doesnt seem to be as devoted to you.
This time, the enemy did not hide any more, but walked out of a cave that was located a few meters away from them.
There were at least ten men, each of them holding a gun aimed at their chest.
Jing Yichen felt his heart soften as he saw the slender figure shielding him.
Was there anyone else in the world who was willing to do this for him?
He had not even interacted with her so much. After the incident happened, he did not even care about her wellbeing. But she was willing to sacrifice her own body and life for him.
He suddenly felt a bit of brightness enter his dark heart for the first time since he was caught into the cer.
He looked up and spoke for the first time, Who are you?
His voice sounded hoarse because of the fever and theck of water, but it was still lethal and cold.
These people looked like some ordinary mafia forces, but Jing Yichen had noticed that they were strong and well-knit, unlike those unorganised groups.
This kind of force should have been quite famous, but he had never heard of them before.
That was not normal.
He was aware of every single gangster group in A City and none of them was as cruel and crazy as these ones. So, they could not havee from A City.
And this hill was not located in A City either.
Therefore, he was not in A City at all.
Anyone who dared to touch him was either too stupid to not know about the Jing Family, or too conceited to think that he was strong enough to beat the Jing Family.
This force was unusuallyrge, but it seemed that they did not know about his real identity as the heir of the Jing Family, and that was why they had dared to do whatever they wanted to him.
After all, he had been caught by them because of an idental conflict.
But it was no longer a small conflict at this stage, rather a matter of life and death.
That was why he would like to know who these people were. None of them was going to be allowed to live on in the future!
But they were not stupid. They did not reveal themselves and said wildly, Son, dont think that you are smart enough to know who we really are. Today is yourst day on earth and your girlfriend will be a y thing for my brothers. Haha!
Jing Yichen did not bother to exin that Tang Yun was not his girlfriend, because it was meaningless. He did not know much about Tang Yun, and had she not been following him all the time, he would not have even known her name.
He did not need women, and even if he did, he would not want one like Tang Yun.
He never expected that the enemies would reveal themselves, because the more hidden ones identity was, the longer they would live for.
He had no more time to waste because he had lost too much blood already, and his wounds were infected. If he didnt get medical aid soon, he would definitely die.
He had no option but to jump into the valley.
But the enemies had already realized his intentions, so they reacted extremely fast.
Before he could jump, they fired a shot.
The bullet came with a loud swishing sound, and he was not able to dodge it in time.
But Tang Yuns slender body lunged at him at the sound of the gun!
Chapter 590 - Yesterday Once More (Part One)
Chapter 590: Yesterday Once More (Part One)
Tang Yun reflected faster than he did. How unexpected!
The two bulletsnded on her chest, one after the other.
Her painful scream echoed, followed by the spurt of blood that covered her entire chest. The strong impact of the bullet made her involuntarily take a step back, and before Jing Yichen realized what had happened, she slipped off the cliff and fell into the river with a scream.
Jing Yichen did not hesitate any longer and jumped off the cliff as well.
He jumped off the cliff, not because he wanted to survive, but to find the girl who had taken the bullet for him.
He might have died if not for her.
Someone was willing to die for him!
Was he really worth it, though?
He had exchanged no more than ten words with her, and always regarded her presence, invisible. He did not even know anything about her.
But she was willing to sacrifice her young life for his sake!
No one had been willing to die for him. Nor had he ever been willing to die for anyone.
No one was worth the while, and he had always thought that he was not worth the while either.
He was going to find Tang Yun as long as there existed a possibility of her being alive. He was not going to let her die in this way.
He had always been a heartless man, but today, his frozen heart shook a bit.
He fell into the water and the strong impact almost made him unconscious. But never before had he felt the need to survive so strongly as he did now.
He struggled in the freezingly cold water. Four helicopters had already appeared above the hill, followed by endless gun firing. The men who had been standing there, copsed one after another, and soon it was silent.
Jing Yichen was missing for three days, and Jing Zhongxiu had not known about him being imprisoned. The father and son had always been in a terrible rtionship, and it was quite normal that they did not meet for ten days or even more. So he had no idea that Jing Yichen had been caught.
But one day, Jing Zhongxiu received a text from a strangers number, and got to know that his son had been captured by a gangster.
The message read C Jing Yichen is with me, give me one billion yuan if you want to keep him safe. Remember toe here alone. If you dont obey, your son will die.
Jing Zhongxiu had gotten very furious. No one had dared to touch his son till date, because those who did, were all dead.
He did not care much about Jing Yiran, but Jing Yichens life was very precious to him. He had epted only Jing Yichen as his son, and even if they were in a bad rtionship, he still cared only about Jing Yichen.
He instantly gathered all of his forces and went to recuse Jing Yichen with the help from the police forces of A City.
He saw his son jumping off the cliff from the helicopter and got so heartbroken that he almost could not breathe!
He med himself for being toote and the helicopter flying too slow, otherwise he could have saved his son before he took that plunge.
After the helicopternded, Jing Zhongxiu captured several men who were still alive and realized that his son had been trapped in this living hell in the past few days.
He sent out his men and helicopters to look for Jing Yichen alongside the surging river.
Luckily, when Jing Yichen was found, he was still breathing.
But he was seriously injured and had lost too much blood, so he stayed unconscious for a week before waking up.
The first thing Jing Yichen did after he woke up was to go and look for Tang Yun.
Despite Mu Wenshengs warning and the serious wounds, he used all of his forces to look for that woman but failed.
He did not believe that Tang Yun was dead already, since her body was never found. He would rather believe that she was alive!
Furious, he went on a rampage against all the underground gangsters in A City and the neighbourhood city.
He did not allow any suspect to slip away.
But somehow, he was very sure that the culprit who had caught him and Tang Yun was still alive, and he didnt even have an idea who that man was.
For the past ten years, he had been devoted to bringing down the gangsters, sparing no efforts to follow any clues.
And today, he finally found the culprit!
The person who was behind all of this turned out to be the mayor of B City, the former best police officer of B City and the former director of the Public Security Bureau. Ironically, he had caught thergest number of criminals during his tenure.
Yu Mos identity had been his perfect shelter.
If Tang Yun had not leaked the information to Jing Yiran identally, it would have taken him much longer to find him.
But likest time, he returned to this bloody ce for some reason.
What happened eleven years ago was being repeated yet again.
He had intended to test Yu Mo the previous day because he found out that there was a close connection between Tang Shunian and Yu Mo. But he hadnt been sure if they were the same person.
He had removed an important force attached to Tang Shunian. Even when Tang Shunian lost many of his men and arge amount of properties, he had not revealed himself.
Tang Shunian had been ying two roles in the past few years, and had found a substitute for himself who could help him with his affairs, when he was not able to.
It was his substitute, who was killed by Jing Yichen, two nights ago.
When the substitute died, Jing Yichen realised that the man he killed was not the real Tang Shunian.
So, the suspicion on Yu Mo became even more.
The Old Lady of the Zhao Family had tried to cooperate with Shangguan Ning for her n, so she had arranged the blind date between Zhao Anan and Yu Mo before any of this.
Yu Family had been the supplier to the Zhao Family, and they had been coborators for many years. But their initial cooperation had started exactly eleven years ago.
Yu Mo did exist, but he barely showed up in public. Only a few people knew what he was like. He started to show his face in public only in the recent years, after he got injured and retired from the special forces. Then he entered the police team of B City and gradually became the mayor after eleven years.
Yu Mo had managed to conceal his real identity for so many years, and got to know Jing Yichen, ages ago. He was in a good rtionship with Zheng Jing, as well. He had a good reputation in both the legal and illegal areas. He had arge socialwork, otherwise he would not have be a mayor with such little experience.
What Jing Yichen had done to him the day before startled Yu Mo. He quickly devised a n and pretended to run away, making Jing Yichen take the bait.
Chapter 591 - Yesterday Once More (Part Two)
Chapter 591: Yesterday Once More (Part Two)
Jing Yichen had known that he was being led to a trap, but he still followed Tang Shunian. If he missed this opportunity, he might not be able to find this tricky enemy for a long time.
He could not allow him to keep his eyes on his wife and child all the time.
Jing Yichen had brought many men with him, but after eleven years of preparation, Tang Shunian had been calctive enough to catch both Jing Yichen and Tiger.
Do you remember how you were humiliated years back?
How did it feel like to be caressed by men? Was it nauseating? Haha, when the Tang Family was ruined, I lived through this kind of humiliation for hundreds of days. I was regarded as the toy for those rich old men and women. I wanted to die every day and wanted to kill people every day!
Tang Shunians cultured voice echoed across the spacious cer. He had a satisfied smile on his face when he saw Jing Yichens pale face.
Jing Yichens face had turned pale, but his expression was distant. He was not panicking. He was no longer who he had been eleven years ago.
He had no fear, even if Tang Shunian was crueler and smarter than he was eleven years ago.
For the first few moments, Jing Yichen experienced a strong physical reaction when the memories started to return. It churned his stomach upside down but soon, he calmed himself down.
He had been through some tough times in the past, and will be able to get through it yet again.
He must ovee his mental block, otherwise Shangguan Ning and Jing Rui would be left alone in this world if he was beaten by Tang Shunian in this deadly game.
He was in a better situation now than eleven years ago. Although Tiger was injured, he was standing next to him, giving him support.
What was more, he had already arranged for help outside. He and Tiger would not remain trapped in here for too long.
The Tang Family betrayed the Jing Family, and it was already merciful of the Jing Family to not kill you all. It is your own fault that you ended up being in that situation.
Standing in the pile of bodies, he reeked of blood. But he was not bleeding, and hadnt received too many injuries yet. Apparently, Tiger had spared no efforts to keep him safe.
Some of the bodies belonged to his men, and some were strangers, who must be Tang Shunians men.
He did not feel any sympathy towards Tang Shunian. His only thought was that Jing Zhongxiu had not been cruel enough to remove the traitors, effectively. The Jing Family must have helped the Tang Family a great deal so that they could grow, but the Tang Family joined hands with their enemies to fight against that helping hand.
As a result, they needed to die!
Tang Shunian needed to die, as well!
Jing Zhongxiu did not kill anyone from the Tang Family. He only caused them to incur huge losses. The members of the Tang Family died one after another because of Tang Shunian.
He not only hated the Jing Family but also those who had offended the Jing Family. Had it not been because of their greed for the vast wealth of the Jing Family, they would not have copsed, and he would not have be a pitiable person who sold his body to survive.
Therefore, after Tang Shunian became capable, he did not kill Jing Zhongxiu, but the master of the Tang Family, his own father, Tang Yi!
Tang Yi had four sons, and Tang Shunian was the youngest, and the one whom he cared about the least. It was not that Tang Yi did not like him, but he had already decided to give the rights of the family to the most capable son of the family. So he spared no efforts to bring the eldest son up and took him along for all dealings. Tang Shunian, who was the youngest, was under the protection of his brothers and was living a happy and carefree life.
Tang Shunian was a smart and ambitious person. He was a capable person to be able to be a mayor at the age of thirty. And, he was good at running business too.
But he was mentally sick, so he enjoyed torturing and killing people.
He had taken revenge by making other people suffer.
Tang Shunian, I would have never found you if you had kept yourself hidden, but you bumped against me, so you will have to die now!
I will have to die? Haha, Jing Yichen, havent you understood what is going on? Have you be slow because of all the blood around you? All your men are all dead. Who else do you have apart from this half-dead, stupid man?!
Tang Shunianughed wildly as he pointed at Jing Yichen.
I spent 70 million yuan and more than six years in building this cer. Do you think that the two of you will be able to run out of this cage? In your dreams! There are threeyers of the walls and are made out of steel and concrete. Even a cannon could not break through them.
Tang Shunian sounded proud and looked at Jing Yichen as if he were staring at a dead man.
Only I know where the exit is, and soon I will send various men to be here with you. You would not be able to run away as you could, eleven years ago. Enjoy it! I will watch the show from a ce which you cant reach even till thest moment of your life.
Jing Yichen stared at him and said coldly, You are going to die, and there is no doubt about it. Do you think that you are the only one with preparations? I will give you a huge surprise, soon!
Tang Shunians twisted expression disappeared little by little, and soon a smile hovered over his face as if he had thought of something funny. He did not care about what Jing Yichen said.
Surprise? Oh yes, you just reminded me that I also have a huge surprise for you. Use your smart brain to tell me what it may be?
Jing Yichens face turned cold.
Considering that Tang Shunian was such a terrible and cruel man, he wouldnt have left his family untouched.
Yo, so fast? Tang Shunianughed even more when he saw Jing Yichens face turning white. He felt as if he had already won the battle.
Chapter 592 - Confrontation
Chapter 592: Confrontation
Smart! It seems that you do care a lot about that Shangguan Ning woman, as the rumor goes.
Tang Shunian had a smile on his face, but he did not seem delighted, instead jealousy was clearly evident in his eyes.
His identity was fake, because the real Yu Mo had been killed by him. Yu Mos son was under his cultivation and he was going to bring him up as his heir.
But he was, after all, not his real son and he did not have a wife, either.
Jing Yichen had everything that he did not, so he had always wanted to make Jing Yichen be as poor as he was!
Jing Yichen looked at Tang Shunian with murder in his eyes. His voice was low and cold, sounding like the ambassador of hell. If you dare to touch her, you would suffer so much pain that you would wish you were dead! Do you think that your past life was terrible? No, you are wrong, because you are about to taste something that is worse than pain, and after that, you will not be able to live for even one more second!
Oh, really? Then I wish that I could taste that!
Tang Shunian was mentally disturbed, and had been for a long time. He did not fear death, nor did he fear any torment, just as Jing Yichen used to feel eleven years ago. Only pain could make him feel that he was still alive.
I heard that you have a strong obsession towards cleanness, and you can not be touched by either men or women. Even a tug at your clothes would cause you to puke. What a coincidence! I have that same problem. But the only difference between us is that whoever touches me, dies!
Tang Shunian pulled out a cigarette, and lit it with a gold-ted, limited version lighter. He took in a deep drag and a joyful expression hovered over his face.
But there is one more difference between us. You cant be touched by anyone except for Shangguan Ning. I have to say that you are way too lucky. So lucky that I feel envious of you.
A ring of white smoke engulfed him while he was spilling what had been hidden inside his heart for so long.
For the past few years, I have been getting more and more obsessive towards cleanliness that I cant even touch women anymore. I have lived for dozens of years as a monk, haunted by nightmares. Only killing people makes me feel good. And it is all because of the Jing Family, especially Jing Zhongxiu. I cant even use my own name and only I understand how much pain I have experienced during the past few years!
But you, on the other hand, got married and even fathered a son. I have not met this woman who cured your problem. Maybe she is gentle and beautiful enough to cure my problem, too. I have almost forgotten what a woman tastes like. Is her body firm and soft? Is her voice attractive? I have seen her pictures. She looks elegant, and poised!
Jing Yichen stood frozen as he tried to curb his urge to kill the man in front of him. Had it not been for the gun aimed at him and Tiger, he would have broken Tang Shunians neck and pulled out his every tooth by now.
Tang Shunianughed like a maniac.
Oh, are you angry? Didnt you always wonder why I ced so many people around your apartment but never touched your beautiful woman? A gentle expression formed in his eyes.
This matter is between us. I will not spare Jing Zhongxiu, and you have to die as well because you are his son. But Shangguan Ning is just a woman, a very beautiful woman. How can I kill her so easily before I even touch her? I got my men to snap some pictures of her. Look, I even have her as my phones wallpaper!
Tang Shunian showed the phone to Jing Yichen.
Although there was a distance of several meters between them, Jing Yichen could tell clearly that Shangguan Nings picture was on Tang Shunians phone!
This was why Tang Shunian had his men wandering about in the Landscape Compound. They were snapping pictures of Shangguan Ning!
But after knowing the truth, Jing Yichen became even more furious than he had been earlier.
He had been pampering Shangguan Ning and taking care of her ever since he got to know her. He was even jealous of Mu Qing checking her medically.
He was very stingy in this aspect. He absolutely did not allow anyone toy eyes upon his wife!
Hence, it was really tough for him to ept that there was another man using his wifes photo as his wallpaper and looking at it every single day. It was possible that there were numerous photos of Shangguan Ning in Tang Shunians phone.
It was a clear vition of Shangguan Nings privacy!
And a humiliation to him as her husband!
Jing Yichens heart hurt, tremendously. He hated it when Shangguan Ning was bullied by someone, even when it was just a photo!
The anger and heartache had reced his difort due to the previous, dark memories. He felt the fury arising from deep within his heart.
If he was not able to keep Shangguan Ning well, he would feel very guilty and hate himself forever.
Just as how Jing Zhongxiu failed to keep Zhao Qing safe. She had an ident because of another woman. He hated himself for that for years, and even till the present day, he could not forgive himself and refuse toy a finger on any other woman.
Jing Yichen had once sworn that he would never be like this father. He was going to make sure that his wife lived well and happily, always.
His hands bunched up into fists.
I am warning you, Tang Shunian, dont even think of touching my wife!
Jing Yichens eyes had turned red. He looked like a lion that was at the verge of attacking.
But no matter how furious he became, he did not lose control because of what Tang Shunian said. He knew that Shangguan Ning had always been a very careful woman. She had enough protection around her. He knew that she would not be caught easily by Tang Shunian.
Do you love her that much? Poor Tang Yun, my poor sister! She loved you so much and dreamt about bing the Lady of the Jing Family, day and night. Unfortunately, you did not even spare a thought for her and loved only Shangguan Ning. We shared the same parents and I didnt hold any grudge against her. I never intended for her to die in my n. But she had made up her mind to marry into the Jing Family, because she was obsessed with your wealth and looks. In the end, she died and I couldnt help her.
Chapter 593 - Scared?
Chapter 593: Scared?
You killed my sister. Do you think that I should take revenge for her, as well?
Tang Shunians voice did not show any grief. He had not been close to Tang Yun and her death relieved him to some degree.It had reduced the possibility of him getting exposed. From his perspective, a person who knew him well, was gone now.
Unfortunately, Tang Yun must have exposed him before her death, otherwise Jing Yichen could not have possibly found him so quickly.
He had not nned to kick start the battle against Jing Yichen so early, because he was not as stupid as Tang Yun, who knew nothing about the Jing Family. Without aprehensive n, he would not have started to get things rolling so fast.
But since Jing Yichen was caught, Jing Zhongxiu, the main culprit, would not be caught now.
It was not a good thing for him!
Jing Zhongxiu was way more experienced than Jing Yichen and Jing Tianyuan. The Jing Family was a very strong force. Even the hitmens association had links with the Jing Family. As a result, they did not kill people without Family Jings agreement. He was alone, and despite nning for dozens of years, he was still not a match against an old family like theirs. He would not be able to take revenge or even survive if he killed Jing Yichen today.
It was all because of Tang Yun!
He had wanted her to enter the Jing Family, because Jing Yichen believed that Tang Yun once saved his life, which is also why he searched for her for years. He had been nice to her and gave her everything she wanted. He could even have gotten the moon for her, had she asked.
However, she was brainless. She not only failed to win Jing Yichens heart but also offended Shangguan Ning, making Jing Yichen detest her. Finally, her lie about saving his life was exposed as well, leaving no scope for her to enter Family Jing, anymore.
Tang Yun deserves to be dead! I just regret not having killed her earlier. Jing Yichen was irritated at the mention of Tang Yun. He sounded distant, like a god of killers as he stood among a pile of bodies.
Both he and Tiger stood immobile in their ce.
Tang Shunian was a few meters away from them and several armed men were hidden in the dark cer, ready to shoot at any time.
They did not move, because one wrong move could kill them.
It was advantageous for Jing Yichen to drag this on for as long as he could.
Hehe, she did deserve to die, but should not have been killed by you. Tang Shunian did not mind the dy either, because he was also bidding for time. He was waiting for Shangguan Ning to arrive.
You did not care about my sister, because of Shangguan Ning. The more you cared about her, the more interested I became in her. I am truly looking forward to seeing this beautiful woman who can help heal people.
You are not going to meet her. Jing Yichens voice sounded furious. He truly wanted to kill Tang Shunian, now.
How do you know that I wont be able to meet her? Tang Shunian inhaled a mouthful of smoke and then tossed the cigarette onto the ground. The heated stud rolled into the pool of blood, making a sizzling sound.
You will meet her soon, unless she does not care about you. In that case, she could ignore the text I sent her. Let me see... oh yes, it has been half an hour since I texted her, and she is probably on her way, already. This ce is a bit far, and even if she is driving here, it would at least take her one hour.
His fingers tightly clenched, Jing Yichen had sweat emerge on his forehead. He looked worried.
If Tang Shunian had truly texted Shangguan Ning and told her where he was now, she would definitelye without hesitation, even though she knew that it meant death.
No one knew her better than he did and how much she cared about him.
She must have gotten very worried when he did note homest night.
Jing Yichen prayed that she would not fall for the trap.
He didnt know how many men had Tang Shunian ced around this area, and even if Shangguan Ning had many people with her, it would still be very dangerous for her.
She cares about me, but she wonte. My men will definitely stop her. Just concentrate on me. No more waiting! Jing Yichen suddenly did not want to dy things with Tang Shunian any more. He did not know what Shangguan Ning would have to face if she came here.
Tang Shunian was definitely not going to let go of her, considering that he was mentally twisted.
He could defend himself, but could not protect her at the same time.
The men he had brought along, were all dead, and his back-up rescue team would not arrive so quickly. Even if they reached right now, they could note in.
Jing Yichen knew that Tang Shunian was not lying about this cer being strong.
As per him, it took him six years and 70 million to build this ce. He had no reasons to lie about it which meant that no one would be able to attack the ce from outside nor would anyone be able toe in.
Jing Yichen, are you scared that I will kill your woman?
Tang Shunian wandered about as if he were taking a walk in a beautiful garden.
Jing Yichens helpless expression made him feel smug.
He had been hiding himself for so many years just to avoid being found by Jing Yichen so that he could survive.
He had lived under someone elses identity, supported someone elses family and made money for the Yu Family to cover his tracks.
So, he felt proud to have Jing Yichen under his feet at this moment.
Jing Yichen was not scared. He knew Shangguan Ning, and if she really was here, she would not obey Tang Shunians words. She would know how to keep herself safe. Hopefully, she was going to turn to Jing Zhongxiu for help.
She would at least arrange for Jing Ruis safety, making sure that their son doesnt run into danger.
And to settle Jing Rui, Jing Zhongxiu would be the most trustworthy person.
If Shangguan Ning knew that he was in danger, Jing Zhongxiu would surely know that well.
With Jing Zhongxiu around, Shangguan Ning and Jing Rui would be safe.
Jing Yichen believed that his father was capable enough to keep the mother and son protected.
Tang Shunian suddenlyughed. He turned on the phone and dialled a number. Soon the call connected, and a familiar voice arose.
Hello?
Tang Shunian threw a smug look at Jing Yichen. He spoke in his attractive voice. Hello, Shangguan Ning, this is Tang Shunian.
Chapter 594 - Not Here
Chapter 594: Not Here
After a moment of silence, Shangguan Nings cold voice arose from the other side.
Mr. Tang, I will do as you requested, but you should also keep your promise of not hurting my husband.
Tang Shunian was slightly surprised by Shangguan Nings response. He had just told her his name and she already knew who he was.
He stared at Jing Yichen. It seemed that Jing Yichen didnt keep things away from Shangguan Ning.
He had thought that Jing Yichen would conceal important matters from his woman, because women tended to cause trouble. They got emotional and impulsive, thus losing rationality and leaking confidential matters without even realising it.
Tang Yun was the perfect example of this.
But Jing Yichen had told Shangguan Ning everything, otherwise Shangguan Ning could not have guessed who he really was, just by his name.
As a matter of fact, Shangguan Ning did not know Tang Shunians name up until now. Jing Yichen had told her about the matter without going into specifics because he did not want her to get too worried or too involved in these things.
But when Shangguan Ning received the call from a strange number which did not originate from A City and heard the surname Tang being mentioned, she naturally understood that Tang Shunian belonged to the Tang Family. It had been him, who ced his men to wander about Landscape Compound, texted her with Jing Yichens phone and took away Jing Yichen. He was the man whom Jing Yichen had been looking for all the time.
Tang Shunian got very jealous of Jing Yichen and Shangguan Nings understanding and trust towards each other.
He never trusted anyone, and nor had he ever been trusted by someone. He had always been living a life full of tricks, and blood. He had been stomping over piles of bones, experiencing endless pain and torment before he became powerful enough to reach where he was today.
After the Tang Family went bankrupt and copsed, Tang Shunians life was tremendously transformed. Because of that period, he turned against both men and women. Both genders disgusted him. Just like Jing Yichen, he detested to be touched, and for many years, he hadnt touched any woman.
Probably it was because of Shangguan Nings elegant air and unusually beautiful looks, or because of her voice, or simply because of her identity as Jing Yichens woman, but Tang Shunian thought that she was extremely attractive.
He had already turned very excited when he heard her voice over the phone.
It was a feeling he had never experienced before.
Maybe, this woman could truly cure his strong obsession towards cleanness!
Tang Shunian suddenly said with a smile, Miss. Shangguan, has anyone told you that you have a really nice voice?
Standing ten meters away, Jing Yichen could hear their conversation very clearly. In order to stimte him, Tang Shunian had turned on the speaker.
Jing Yichen could not curb his reaction just as Tang Shunian had predicted.
How dare he speak with Shangguan Ning in such an impolite way, that too, right in front of him?
Deep down inside Jing Yichen, there was a fire of fury burning, making him tremble.
He was ming himself for everything!
If he had not been on someone elses mercy, Shangguan Ning would not have been troubled like this.
Shangguan Ning, however, did not show any reaction. She was calm. Instead of answering, she said with poise, Mr. Tang, can I speak with my husband? I want to be sure that he is safe.
Oh yeah? You dont trust me, Miss Shangguan? Tang Shunian did not sound angry. In fact, he had a bright smile on his face. He was enjoying speaking with Shangguan Ning.
It made him feel great to speak with Jing Yichens wife in front of him. Jing Yichen could not have experienced such a humiliating thing in his life before, did he?
Mr. Tang, I dont know you, so, of course I dont trust you. But I dont think that you are a fickle person. Can I speak with my husband, now? Or, has he been beaten to death already, and hence, you do not want us to talk?
Miss Shangguan, we have never met each other before, but I feel that you are a very beautiful woman, and smart too. You know when to push forward and when to retreat. You have obviously left me no choice except to follow your words, and I have, willingly, fallen for that.
Smiling, Tang Shunian was showing great patience towards Shangguan Ning while speaking to her. He seemed rather good-tempered at the moment.
Your husband is safe right now, maybe a bit messy. He is not injured, and the blood on his body is from someone else. But, if you dont follow my orders, he may not be able to stay alive for long.
Dont worry, Mr. Tang, as long as I am assured that my husband is safe, I will definitely follow your instructions. I wont gamble with his life. I think that you already know that I am on my way. I am not sure how many people there are in the Buick car, but I am definitely not a match against them, right?
Tang Shunian finallyughed. Miss Shangguan, you are definitely smart! Yes, they are my men. Follow them, and you will find Jing Yichen. Hopefully, I wont have to wait for too long!
I am driving at a high speed. But that car of yours is way too slow for me to drive any faster. You have to change the car.
Oh, it is my mistake. Tang Shunian instantly said in an indulgent voice, When they finish the mission today, we will remove the stupid Buick and rece it with Audi, like yours, okay?
I dont care about that, Mr. Tang. Where is my husband? Please put him on the call.
You truly are in love with Jing Yichen. I am so jealous. Tang Shunian chuckled as a touch of evil shed across his eyes. He said in a rxed voice, If you insist, then I will not displease you.
He stressed upon the not displease you in a flirty way, just to annoy Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen.
Unfortunately, neither of them showed anger.
Not getting his desired reaction out of them, Tang Shunian looked slightly angry. But he still kept his promise. He handed his phone to Jing Yichen and said calmly, One minute only.
A few meters away, Jing Yichen said loudly on the phone, Ning, donte here. Leave everything to me. I can solve it myself.
Chapter 595 - No Shame
Chapter 595: No Shame
Shangguan Ning almost burst into tears when she heard his voice.
She was driving at a high speed following the ck Buick in the modified car which Jing Zhongxiu had given her.
She had spoken to Tang Shunian for more than one minute, and Jing Zhongxius men had managed to trace Tang Shunians location. Jing Zhongxiu was now one step ahead and would reach the ce before her.
Jing Zhongxius mission for her had been to drag the conversation with Tang Shunian for as long as possible.
And she did it!
For whatever reason, Tang Shunian seemed to enjoy talking with her. As long as he was willing to chat, it was good enough for her.
She did not care about being taken advantage of, by Tang Shunian, verbally, and he had not said anything over the top, either. Tang Shunian had acted like a gentleman during the entire process.
She was willing to keep Tang Shunian talking with her, because only in this way, he would be distracted from hurting Jing Yichen, at least momentarily.
Although Shangguan Ning could barely hear Jing Yichens voice, she was still very happy to hear that he did not get injured.
Yichen, how are you doing?
Shangguan Nings concern reached him through the phone.
Maybe it was because of the bad signal in the cer, but her voice was not very clear.
Jing Yichens angry heart was warmed by her voice, and he no longer felt that his blood-soaked shirt was ufortable.
I am fine, donte here, do as I say.
No, I wille there! He has promised that as long as Ie to you, you will be fine. Otherwise, you will be in danger!
Tang Shunian could not help but show a cruel and lethal smile as he heard Shangguan Nings determined voice.
Well, well, Jing Yichens woman was going to reach here. He had been looking forward to seeing this beautiful woman who could heal people.
Wonderful, the show begins.
Tang Shunian did not know Shangguan Ning well, and he did not see anything special about what she said just now. But Jing Yichen could feel Shangguan Nings heart. She spoke in such an impulsive way, because she was speaking a rehearsed script.
Shangguan Ning had never been an impulsive person. She would stay calm under stressful situations. She never trusted anyone easily, so she would never believe the lies which Tang Shunian had said to her.
She said all of it on purpose.
It was through her words that Jing Yichen realized that his father was on his way, too.
But he still did not want Shangguan Ning toe here. It was a hellhole, and he did not want her toe and be exposed to the danger.
He was just about to say something when Tang Shunian took away the phone. He turned off the speaker and said, Miss Shangguan, one minute is over. Both of you should stop showing off your love. You guys can talk face to face when you meet, alright?
Jing Yichen could not hear what Shangguan Ning replied, but he could hear what Tang Shunian said about not being worried, your husband is currently safe etc. He figured that Shangguan Ning was asking Tang Shunian not to do anything to him.
They spoke for a while before Tang Shunian hung up.
He stared at the picture on the phone for a long time before looking up and said with a twisted smile, What a gentle woman, innocent and smart. She fits me perfectly. I dont like idiotic or tricky women. Shangguan Ning is just perfect.
Maybe it was because he had just spoken with Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen calmed himself down.
This cer, which had been filthy, bloody and dark, failed to disturb him any longer.
Shangguan Nings voice had shown him a glimmer of light in the darkness.
All this time, she had been the bright sunshine in his life, offering him warmth and bringing color to his life.
Staring at Tang Shunian, Jing Yichen stopped showing any more emotions but said distantly, She is mine. As for you, you will always be a lonely wandering ghost even in hell.
Tang Shunian threw a look at Jing Yichen as if he were staring at an idiot. Then he said in an exaggerated tone, Jing Yichen, have you lost your memory? Look at these people on the ground. And think back to what happened eleven years ago. You were like a stray dog who hid himself under a pile of bodies just to avoid those crazy men.
For the first time after eleven years, Jing Yichen did not feel disgusted by what had happened, and for the first time, he did not puke.
Yes, I remember everything. I was forced to hide under the bodies, and I could not stand being touched by these people. But I was lucky! They were driven crazy by your drugs and even killed each other. I have no shame that I survived using whatever means possible. I survived because I am better than you. You sold yourself, whilst I didnt have to do it.
Tang Shunian was irritated by Jing Yichens provocative words. He shouted loudly, Shut up!
Oh yeah? Do you remember what you have been through, the filthy life which you had to endure? Jing Yichen looked rather bored. He did not care about how angry Tang Shunian was bing.
But Tang Shunian stayed angry for just one minute before he suppressed his emotions.
After so many years, he had developed an iron d control over his feelings.
He could stay calm and think about matters rationally under pressure.
Jing Yichen, are you trying to irritate me? Tang Shunian lowered his voice, sounding disdainful. You were able to escape only because I was careless.
I had underestimated you. I thought that a few hundred people and the influence of drugs could conquer you. I had been overconfident but realizedter that you were just too capable to be beaten down by only this much.
Tang Shunians handsome face still showed astonishment when he thought of what happened in the past.
I made an erroneous judgement. I did not expect that you could be so skilled at fighting and had such a strong resistance towards therge doses of drugs. I had thought that you would definitely die, so I left after watching the show for one day. But you managed to escape. Lucky for me. Had I stayed longer, I would have died like my brothers when Jing Zhongxiu arrived. But now, I have understood what you are capable of, and I will not repeat my mistake.
Look at the guns around you, how would you ever escape?
Chapter 596 - A Matter of Seconds
Chapter 596: A Matter of Seconds
Shangguan Ning was driving at a high speed on the highway.
She was alone in the car, but she was not scared. She was simply anxious that even one second dy would put Jing Yichens life in danger.
There were four cars surrounding her. The Buick was leading the way, and the other three, ck Volkswagen were following her, blocking her way of retreat.
But Shangguan Ning did not n to retreat anyways. Her car had been modified to such a degree that it could defend her and help her attack, as well. Even if there were dozens of cars in front of her, she would not have been worried.
Also, Jing Zhongxiu had sent two helicopters which were following her from a distance. As soon as she sent a signal, the helicopters would arrive in a jiffy.
ording to the location sent by him, Tang Shunian was supposed to be in B City.
Tang Shunians forces were mostly in B City, a city where he had been operating for dozens of years. He had already taken control of several forces there, and those who did not obey his orders, were removed by him through violence.
The Jing Family had rtively weaker forces in B City, because it was a smaller citypared to A City and had a weak economy. Running B City was not practical for Family Jing.
Starting a war in B City would definitely be advantageous for Tang Shunian.
Jing Zhongxiu was instructing his men to go where Tang Shunian was, while he stayed in touch with Shangguan Ning, constantly. He was very worried that Shangguan Ning was driving to the dangerous ce, alone.
Luckily, Shangguan Ning had been in touch with him all the time and was currently safe.
...
In the dark and cold cer, Tang Shunian and Jing Yichen were in a face-off.
Tang Shunian never gave anyone a quick death. Since he had been through mistreatment, he wanted every prisoner to go through all kinds of torment before killing him.
Majority of people were not mentally strong like Jing Yichen nor did they have strong resistance towards drugs.
Jing Yichen had spent three days in the cer and survived. He was the only person who could hold on for such a long time, and was able to escape from the cer.
There was no water or food in the cer. No fresh air was circting and bacteria and viruses were rampant inside. In addition, there were damaging drugs and hallucinogen plus numerous crazy men. It was already a big thing for someone to have survived even one day there.
Normally, the prisoners would start getting delirious because of hallucinogen, and break down soon. Those who had weak willpower would only be able to stand it for a couple of hours.
Even Jing Yichen, who survived, had developed psychological problems. He could not stand being touched.
However, after he got married, his problem was getting less and less serious.
But Tang Shunians situation was getting worse and seeing Jing Yichen recover, was thest thing he could tolerate.
Another strong scent of sweetness started to fill up the cer. Jing Yichens face changed as he sensed the smell. Even Tiger who was standing behind him understood what it meant. His pale face turned even whiter because of hemorrhage.
Tiger did not have a strong resistance towards drugs. He was not like Jing Yichen who had gone through strict training in his childhood. He would soon lose his senses under the influence of this scent and would start to desire for a supple body.
He looked at Jing Yichen and showed determination on his good-natured face. Master, hit me!
Jing Yichen shook his head and said calmly, I will, when you lose control, but not now. Stay strong. I will take you out of here alive!
Tiger felt warmth enter his heart when he heard Jing Yichens words.
He had never thought of himself as important to Jing Yichen, despite serving him for so long.
Jing Yichen had saved his life a long time ago. So he always thought that his life belonged to Jing Yichen, and as long as Jing Yichen was in danger, he would give up his own to keep him safe.
He understood that although the Master looked distant, he was a kind-hearted person who would never give up on anyone whom he thought important.
Hearing Jing Yichens words, Tang Shunianughed loudly.
He looked at him and said, Jing Yichen, you better stay alive. You dodged the punishment eleven years ago, but today, you wont be able to. I will stay here so that you dont hide yourself under the bodies again. I guarantee that after the fun you have today, you will never desire women. Hahaha!
Having said the words, he summoned a group of people from the shadows whilst walking into another shadowed enve of the cer.
Jing Yichen and Tiger were surrounded by a group of half-naked men with only their briefs on. The drugs in the air had made them lose their minds already. They saw the prey in front of them and smiled.
These people had been trained by Tang Shunian throughout the year, and were used to tormenting the people trapped here.
When they saw Tiger and Jing Yichen, they did not think twice before surrounding them despite the dangerous looks on their faces. Some even lunged at them.
Jing Yichen watched calmly as a strong man came at him. The moment he reached him, Jing Yichen gave a quick kick, throwing the man on the solid ground.
He had killed a man in a second.
All the men were startled.
This group of men had been used to dominating people in this cer, and those who were caught here, tended not to resist. They would get frightened and beg for mercy.
Even if there was someone who tried to resist, the drugs would make them lose the ability to rebel.
They had never met anyone as rational andbative as Jing Yichen till now.
They had been used to being the wolves who bit and pounced on weak sheep that had been brought in. But a lion, fiercer than a wolf had appeared today, stunning them.
People always had the instinctive fear of death. When they saw theirrade dropping dead, they would want to run away.
Chapter 597 - Fear
Chapter 597: Fear
A peculiar quietness spread across the cer. No one dared to go forward when one of them was dead within seconds.
However, some of them still could not resist the strong desire due to the drugs, so they threw themselves at Jing Yichen.
Tiger stood back to back with Jing Yichen, facing hundreds of strong, crazy men on all sides. They started to kill them.
It was a spacious ce and there were no barriers apart from the dozens of supporting columns.
There was no ce for Jing Yichen to hide.
He saw the column that was located closest to him and led Tiger slowly to that corner.
Tiger was equally strong and capable as Jing Yichen. He was Jing Yichens bodyguard for so many years, and had killed many men with him. He had fallen into numerous dangerous traps with him as well. That he was able to survive meant that he was thoroughly capable.
Although they were in a disadvantageous situation right now, Tiger did not feel desperate.
He stayed calm, because he was confident about his master and his capabilities.
They had been through many difficult situations, and had beaten crazier people than these.
Tang Shunian was just one of them, but he was very well prepared, and that made it difficult for them to find a breakthrough.
Jing Yichen had not killed so many people in a long time with his bare hands.
He didnt like being touched by others, and hated it when his skin was close to someone elses. That was why most of the time, Tiger would handle such situations when they did not have any guns.
Jing Yichen was a bit rusty with his punches, but soon, he got used to the situation.
Thebative feeling that had been dormant inside Jing Yichen for a long time, swelled up. It made him feel good, and turned into the strength which he put into use while fighting the enemies.
He was using fatal moves each time, and seeded in killing the enemies at one go.
In this way, he was able to reduce the possibility of being touched by anyone and also save some energy.
The bodies were umting near their feet, and a pile started to form around the column. It helped them block attacks from one side, giving them some relief.
Some had died because of smashed inner organs, while others died of suffocation because of crushed Adams Apple.
Within half an hour there were hundreds of bodies in the cer.
Tiger and Jing Yichen were soaked with blood, except that the blood belonged to someone elses. Jing Yichen had not got a single wound on him, till now.
He was not feeling tired despite being hungry through the night.
Tang Shunian nned to exhaust him first, so that he could be tormented when he was too tired to move. But Jing Yichen was not worried.
He was not his old self anymore. He was not fighting alone this time. Also, he was sure that his men had alreadye here and started the fight against Tang Shunians forces.
Jing Yichen had paid great attention to Tang Shunian. Although he seemed a bit more capable than he had imagined, Jing Yichen was confident about his own arrangement.
If Tang Shunian wanted to take his life, he would not be able to live on either.
Tang Shunian must be aware of this point too, and that was why he had not killed him yet.
If he was dead, Tang Shunian would never live a peaceful day in his life.
But even if he survived, Tang Shunian would not live a peaceful day in his life, either!
Jing Yichen knew Tang Shunian was aware that Jing Zhongxiu would definitely kill him if Jing Yichen died.
Not only did Jing Yichen know that Jing Zhongxiu would be here, Tang Shunian knew about that as well!
Eleven years ago, Jing Zhongxiu had already shown his iparable, powerful strength.
That hill used to be Tang Shunians secret ce with more than one thousand guards residing there. Apart from the three or four hundred people who were killed by Jing Yichen, Jing Zhongxiu had killed the rest of the people!
Tang Shunian had gotten scared of what happened. If it had not been because of his overconfidence about Jing Yichens inability to withstand the torture, he wouldnt have left early from there, and would have died in the cer which he had built himself.
Tang Shunian had gotten to know that Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen shared a bad rtionship with each other and they hated each other. He had thought that even if Jing Zhongxiu went to look for Jing Yichen, he would not make too many efforts.
Unexpectedly, however, Jing Zhongxiu had gotten so furious that he turned the hill into a barren ce. Dozens of cers had been destroyed and no one managed to escape!
Only then did Tang Shunian realize that the rumor was not true. Jing Zhongxiu not only cared about his son, but cared so deeply that he did not spare anyones life if someone dared to hurt Jing Yichen in any way!
Family Yang was the best example of this.
They had hurt Jing Yichen and the entire family was gone. The Yang Family had been destroyed and those on the run were also removed one after another.
Jing Zhongxiu did not care about the consequences. Nor did he care about anyone elses opinions.
What a ruthless and scary father he was! One had to think twice before irritating Jing Yichen.
Tang Shunian did not want to be caught by Jing Zhongxiu. He had to guarantee his own safety once he caught Jing Yichen. That was why he spent so much time nning.
Tang Shunians aim was not to kill Jing Yichen but to destroy the Jing Family. He wanted the Jing Family to suffer the same pain as the Tang Family had done back then!
Tormenting Jing Yichen made Tang Shunian feelfortable.
Jing Yichen must die, but not now.
Hidden in the shadows, Tang Shunian watched Jing Yichen kill hundreds of people with quick moves and no fear in his eyes.
He watched the show for a while before instructing someone who was standing behind him. Send 500 more people, and give each of them strong drugs. Put more drugs into the cer, as well. I want to see everyone getting crazier!
His man bowed and went to carry out his instruction.
Soon, more people emerged into the cer, putting pressure upon Jing Yichen who had started to get injured.
Tang Shunian finally felt a bit satisfied.
He lit the cigarette in his hand and was about to inhale it when his phone screen lit up. Shangguan Ning was calling him.
Chapter 598 - Culprit
Chapter 598: Culprit
Tang Shunian showed a sinister smile as he saw the name on the screen.
Shangguan Ning had called him of her own ord.
It seemed that she was truly concerned about Jing Yichen.
With the cellphone in hand, Tang Shunian turned around and walked towards the exit of the cer.
The exit required his fingerprints to open up. No one would be able to go out without his fingerprints.
The gate of the cer was built to allow only one body to pass at a time. There was no limit on entry, but there were restrictions for someone to go out.
There was someone guarding the cer. Tang Shunian needed to go somewhere else, since it was not safe here any longer.
He walked out of the cer, entered a car and answered the call in a gentle voice. Miss Shangguan, where are you now?
Mr. Tang, I am not sure where I am now, because I have never been to B City before. I am calling to see if everything is fine with my husband. You have not broken our agreement, have you?
Tang Shunian chuckled. He seemed to think that Shangguan Ning was phrasing her words in a very interesting way.
He looked up at Jing Yichen who was in thebat and said in a calm voice, Of course not, Jing Yichen is doing fine now. But I think that he wants to see you desperately. So you should hurry!
Can I speak with him?
I am so sorry, Miss Shangguan. I have already been sincere enough to give you guys time to speak. Honestly, if we talk too much, my location can be tracked. I will be dead if too many police officerse here.
I did not ask for help from any police officer!
Oh, that is very good. Otherwise I cant guarantee what would happen to your husband.
Tang Shunian was behaving like a gentleman as he reminded Shangguan Ning out of kindness.
Jing Yichen has a very strong obsession towards cleanness, so he cant be touched by anyone, right? Dont you want to know what caused that? I also have a very strong obsession towards cleanness, and we share the same cause. How interesting is life, no?
Mr. Tang, arent you afraid now that talking with me for too long would expose your location?
Oh, it seems that Miss Shangguan isnt much interested in this topic. Dont you want to know how your husband was humiliated by so many men back then. At that time, he was like a pitiful dog, running about with no clothes on and nowhere to go. When he got too tired, he used bodies to hide under. Unfortunately, my brothers were fooled, and he did not seem to mind behaving like a coward.
Shangguan Ning was driving the car when she heard Tang Shunians cruel words.
She did not interrupt the crazy man, but tears started to trickle down like pearls without thread from her eyes.
Her hands were tightly clenched to the steering wheel as she tried her best to control her emotions, fearing that she would burst out in tears or swear at him.
She knew that Jing Yichen had a strong cleanliness obsession. She knew that apart from her, he could not touch anyone else but she always thought that he just preferred being clean and hated to stay close to people.
But she discoveredter that it was far more than just an obsession.
He did not even want to shake hands with others, and did not follow even the most basic society etiquettes.
She had asked Jing Yichen several times about the reason, but he alwaysughed it off, never mentioning the real cause.
So Tang Shunian had been the one responsible for it!
She was not sure how true Tang Shunians words were, but after hearing them, she felt her heart ache, as if it had been ripped off her chest!
Her Yichen, the most perfect and outstanding man in the world, had once been tormented and humiliated in such a manner!
Tang Shunian was definitely going to die, he had to die!
Shangguan Ning cursed Tang Shunian inwardly. He was a monster!
But Tang Shunian did not seem to care about Shangguan Nings anger. Instead, he continued speaking in a happy tone, But Jing Yichen escaped the humiliation. I got to know that his manhood is not functioning properly. I wonder if he can satisfy you these days?
With her teeth tightly clenched, Shangguan Ning kept telling herself to hold back her irritation. She couldnt lose it, at least not right now!
Irritating him would only create more trouble for Jing Yichen.
Her silence made Tang Shunian even more reckless. It seemed that he had been quiet for too long.
I do envy Jing Yichen sometimes. He is indeed lucky! He was always favored by God. Unfortunately, I was not as lucky as him. Dozens of years ago, I was tormented by a group of stinky men and old women every single day. I wanted to die and end the miserable life.
Do you know how I got through it? Haha! I kept telling myself that when the Jing Family, the reason for Tang Familys bankruptcy was still alive, I could not die! I must stay alive, and take revenge! I must bring them down so that every man in the Jing Family would suffer gravely and all the women of the Jing Family would be mine.
See, I finally made it! Jing Yichen almost died because of the torment, and I finally got a good sleep. But I was too careless, because he suddenly could touch a woman. And that woman was not my poor sister who had been in love with him for dozens of years, but you!
It is strange, Miss Shangguan. Do you have any special ability to cure Jing Yichens obsession? Do you think that you can cure mine too?
Sitting in the car, Shangguan Nings cheeks were drenched with tears.
She truly wanted to say C I wont cure you, I will kill you.
But she could not. She could only listen and tolerate.
Jing Zhongxiu and his men must have already arrived at Tang Shunians ce. What she needed to do was to distract Tang Shunian. It was good that he was willing to speak with her.
Shangguan Ning had no desire to answer him, but Tang Shunian was not happy with her silence.
Miss Shangguan, why are you silent? Do you think that I dont deserve your words? Or are you saying that you want Jing Yichen to experience the humiliation he went through eleven years ago, again?
No, I am talking with you! Shangguan Ning shouted.
I am talking with you, but you must keep the promise of not hurting him before I arrive!
She was not sure if Tang Shunian would keep the promise. A mentally-disturbed person like him would never care about a promise. But she would try her level best to gain even the slightest advantage.
Jing Yichen must be facing tremendous threat because of that one thing that Tang Shunian said!
Chapter 599 - Your Freedom for His (Part One)
Chapter 599: Your Freedom for His (Part One)
How moving! Both of you are deeply in love with each other!
Sitting in the car, Tang Shunian said with a sneer.
Shangguan Ning could tell that he was displeased, but she was not sure what had made him unhappy.
Mentally disturbed people tended to be unpredictable. Even the smallest matter could offend him, so Shangguan Ning did not take it seriously.
As long as Tang Shunian did not vent his anger upon Jing Yichen, it was fine.
Mr. Tang, what would make you release him? I can match whatever figure, if it is money that you want.
Money? Oh, maybe I can be pleased to make Jing Yichen suffer a little bit less if you offer me enough.
Tang Shunians mood immediately improved when he heard the word C money.
He was a wealthy person, but he hadrge expenses. He had spent more than 70 million yuan upon building this indestructible cer, and supporting the strong hitmen cost him a great deal of money as well.
His sry as the mayor was also spent on other things. He was trying to expand his gang all the way to the USA. Arge chunk of money making process was established there but he was still short of money.
Shangguan Ning had not expected that money would move Tang Shunian, because he was a maniac.
How much do you want?
Shangguan Ning knew that if Tang Shunian asked for the money, the number would be very high. He must be aware of the vast wealth the Jing Family had, and would not let go of this opportunity to squeeze out as much as possible.
Sure enough, Tang Shunian said without hesitation, I heard that the Jing Family has billions, and is ranked amongst the top ten in the Global Forbes List. If that is the case, I have to ask for enough to match the Jing Familys face. What about 100 billion! I am sure that Jing Yichens life is worth several hundreds of billions. But I am not asking for that much.
Shangguan Ning truly wanted to curse him right now. He was daydreaming about getting that much money.
The Jing Family was wealthy, but it was not possible for them to get 100 billion yuan cash at one go.
Mr. Tang, you are way too greedy. I cant possibly remove this much money from the Jing Family, because my father will definitely get to know about it, and he wont agree.
Oh, Miss Shangguan, you cant lie to me about this. No one knows better than me that Jing Zhongxiu cares a great deal about his precious son. Eleven years ago, I caught his son and he bombed the entire hill. Everyone who was inside was all gone. My poor brothers, they all went to hell.
Shangguan Ning failed to trick Tang Shunian. That was unexpected!
She thought quickly and then said calmly, It is arge amount of money and I can not get this much on my own!
I dont care. I need money, and it doesnt concern me how you get it. But, after you get me the money, I can let you and Jing Yichen meet. How does that sound?
Tang Shunian came out of a deep underground exit and entered another underground entry. He then parked at the gate after taking roundabouts alongside the entry.
As he was making the call with Shangguan Ning, he came out of the car, checked in with the fingerprint, and entered the room.
This cer was about 1 kilometer away from where Jing Yichen was, but it was buried deeper and covered an area of 300 square meters. It was solid and luxuriously decorated. There were four other hidden passages that led to the outside world from here.
Tang Shunian was a person who always felt insecure. He not only liked constructing cers, but also liked building them to be as firm as a castle. He did not like seashore vis full of sunshine and fresh air, but this kind of isted environment.
He had various gangs, casinos and services across the world. He also sold weapons! These were not very safe deals, but he was able to gain arge amount of wealth every year.
Tang Shunian never kept this wealth, but spent it all upon building different underground kingdoms, some of which were sold at high prices and some were kept for his own use.
These kinds of spacious and solid cers were the safest ce to imprison men and women. As long as the exit above the ground was covered by tall trees, no one would be able to identify these ces ever.
Tang Shunian was an expert in building underground cers. No one was more capable than he was.
As long as there was enough money, he would even be able to build a cer that could withstand an attack from atomic bombs!
The cer where he was right now had a strong defense system, and he was not at all worried about any sort of attack.
Tang Shunian entered the cer that was almost as luxurious as the presidential suite of a five-star hotel, turned on the TV and watched Jing Yichen inbat with a group of people, smiling in satisfaction.
Miss Shangguan, I spent a great deal of money over the past years because of Jing Yichen, and the Jing Family mustpensate me for it. I had nned to negotiate with Jing Zhongxiu, because he is Jing Yichens father. But I dont think I can win while talking with him, so I should turn to you, a naive woman. Give me enough money, so that Jing Yichen lives. Or, I will have to sell his organs to umte the money!
Tang Shunian had no ns to keep Jing Yichen alive, but he was still of great value at the moment, so he could not die.
He could make use of Jing Yichen to get control of Jingshengs business empire, and take revenge upon Jing Zhongxiu through him!
As for Shangguan Ning, Tang Shunian was not going to release her either. He had be extremely possessive and curious about her. He wanted to see if she could cure his strong obsession.
After being silent for a bit, Shangguan Ning said, Money is not the problem. I can give you 100 billion yuan, as long as you leave my husband alone.
Oh, no, no, Miss Shangguan, dont be greedy! Money is to buy Jing Yichens life, not his freedom.
Then what can buy his freedom?
Tang Shunian suddenlyughed and spilled one word. You!
Chapter 600 - Your Freedom for His (Part Two)
Chapter 600: Your Freedom for His (Part Two)
How does that sound? You can trade your freedom for Jing Yichens. Actually, I am more gentle than Jing Yichen, and I know how to treat women right. You will definitely be happier!
He was ckmailing her but his gentle voice and mild tone made him sound as if he were a gentleman courting ady.
Shangguan Ning sneered inwardly but said calmly, I agree!
Oh?
Tang Shunian was surprised, and couldnt conceal his reaction.
Miss Shangguan, didnt you make up your mind too fast? Dont you need to think about it further? I suspect your sincerity when you answered so quickly. You sound as if you are bluffing. I hate it when people try to trick me.
I can do anything for my husband. You can suspect my sincerity towards you, but you do not need to suspect my feelings for my husband. There is no doubt that I will trade my freedom for his.
Shangguan Ning hated Tang Shunian to the bone, but still sounded poised and rational.
She did not need to deal with Tang Shunian on her own, so no matter what he said, she would simply say yes!
Her mission was to distract Tang Shunian, so that he would not hurt Jing Yichen more.
It had been a while since she got the first call. She was driving, but Jing Zhongxiu had taken the helicopter. He and his men must have arrived there already.
Sure enough, the next moment she heard Tang Shunians cold voice. Miss Shangguan, you dont seem to be that obedient. My CCTV has already discovered Jing Zhongxius annoying face. How could they have reached here so fast? You must have exposed my location?
Shangguan Ning denied calmly. I had nothing to do with it. I drove out of home the moment I saw your text. I did not talk with my father. I have no idea about his whereabouts.
Hahaha! Tang Shunian suddenlyughed wildly, but he did not sound happy.
Shangguan Ning, I underestimated you. I thought that you were just an eye candy, but it seems that you are a good actress. You are brave and dared toe to me with my men. Beautiful and capable, I do look forward to seeing you!
I am already at your mercy, Tang Shunian. Are you still afraid that a weak woman like me would run away? Or, are you so scared that my father will kill you?
Oh, you are provoking me again. Tang Shunian still behaved like a gentleman and said in a mild tone, I still cant help but fall for your words. It has been a long time since a woman talked with me in this way. Anyone who dared to talk with me in this way was chopped by me and fed to the dogs.
Shangguan Ning felt goose bumps on her back after hearing what Tang Shunian said.
This man was indeed a maniac.
So, you will cut me to pieces as well, if I show up?
Are you scared, Ning? Tang Shunian sounded rather excited when he imagined the scenario. His voice turned sweeter and he even changed the way of addressing her.
After the Tang Family copsed, Tang Shunian had not spoken with a woman in this way.
He hated women!
Women would remind him of the torment which he went through with those aged, obese and old women. They were all ugly and disgusting people who cheered themselves by making fun of him!
But for some reason, Tang Shunian did not hate Shangguan Ning.
He had gotten himself numerous outstanding women in order to cure his problem. He tried hanging out with all kinds, the lovely, the innocent, the naive, the charming, but none of them seeded in curing him.
Shangguan Ning was the only woman so far, who could make him feel rxed.
How wonderful! She was not only able to make Jing Yichen ovee the psychological barrier, but also made him feelfortable.
Tang Shunian turned on theputer and leafed through the thousands of pictures stored in theputer that showed only one woman C Shangguan Ning.
Shangguan Ning was not aware of her having been clicked. Nor did she have any idea that Tang Shunian had kept arge numbers of her pictures.
All she could feel was Tang Shunian did not seem to be scared by Jing Zhongxius arrival.
Confused, she asked Tang Shunian politely. Will you believe me if I say that I am not scared?
Oh, you are indeed honest. Look, that is another merit of yours. I feel that I like you even more. You suit me perfectly.
I dont think so. Shangguan Ning didnt like the way Tang Shunian was speaking and said with a calm voice, You are cruel, and I am scared.
Sure enough, Tang Shunian seemed very pleased. He liked it when Shangguan Ning was talking in a neutral tone, and he liked it even more when Shangguan Ning was not being docile.
His voice sounded as if he were drunk. So he said in an excited voice, Dont be scared, Ning, I enjoy speaking with you. I wont chop you and feed you to the dogs. Your voice is so nice. It tickles me. I am a bit regretful that I noticed you way toote, otherwise you would have been mine by now. You can read stories to me every single day, alright?
That wont work. Shangguan Ning turned him down coldly, If you want to hear stories, you can tune into a broadcaster.
No, honey, you are smart enough to have noticed that I dont like gentle, docile women. I like a cold, distant woman like you. You dont want to please me, and you wont want to please me just because you are scared, I like that.
Shangguan Ning was a bit shocked.
Tang Shunian was mentally disturbed, but he was very intelligent. He had realised that she noticed his preference and was making use of it.
Tang Shunian caressed Shangguan Nings eyebrows on the screen and moved his fingers over her exquisite face. You have the right looks, and voice. You are pretty when you throw a temper, when you do nothing, when you smile. You are the prettiest woman in the world, you know.
Shangguan Ning could not help but frown.
She felt that Tang Shunian was talking in a very strange way.
Had he seen her before?
Or did they ever meet?
He was talking in such a way as if he knew her well!

Jing Zhongxiu was leading four helicopters, ten snipers and ten advanced, fully trained, martial artists plus two doctors when he arrived at the location where Jing Yichen was.
Jing Zhongxiu had only brought the finest men along with him on the helicopter.
Lu followed Jing Zhongxiu in with a gun in her hands, dressed in the tight-fitting outfit.
Over the cer that trapped Jing Yichen, was an abandoned factory with dozens of strong men guarding it. Lu plus ten snipers used only five minutes to finish everyone there.
When they entered the factory, they found that there were numerous bodies lying everywhere.
The factory was enormous with several entries. At some of the entries there were already five or six ck-dressed men.
As they saw Jing Zhongxiu, they all bowed to him but didnt say anything.
Jing Zhongxiu could not help but get surprised at the sight of these men.
Jing Yichen had already made sure that his men arrived ahead of time. That made Jing Zhongxiu feel a bit reassured.
His son had finally grown up. He had learnt to be prepared. He must have anticipated what would happen in the following days, otherwise these men could not have arrived so fast.
Jing Zhongxiu asked them about their search. Listening to them, he realised that there were way too many entries here, and each of them led to a different cer. Some would explode, some would emit poisonous gas, some were neutral while some shut people in.
They hade in groups. The first group included 200 people and the death rate had already reached 90%.
There were 600 in the second group, and half were already dead inside.
Jing Zhongxiu finally understood why Tang Shunian had not been afraid of being exposed through phone tracking.
He had got multiple traps ready for them inside.
And even if they knew that it was a trap, they had to enter there, because the location showed that Jing Yichen was underground. Shangguan Ning had talked with Jing Yichen not long ago. Although Tang Shunians location had changed, Jing Zhongxiu believed that Tang Shunian left without Jing Yichen. He still must be here somewhere.
The passages that connected the ground and the cer were like arge maze. It was almost impossible to get out once a man entered, and was risky as well.
In order to find the correct path, someone had to lead them in, or they would need numerous men to try each passage.
Jing Zhongxiu had been extremely furious after getting to know that Jing Yichen was missing.
When the Tang Family betrayed the Jing Family back then, it was he who bankrupted the Tang Family. Although the Jing Family had lost tremendously back then, yet the root was not impacted, so Jing Zhongxiu did not kill everyone in the Tang Family.
But now it seemed that he should have killed them all!
No matter what happened in the past, there was no time to feel regret. Jing Zhongxiu hated it when Tang Shunian had extracted revenge on Jing Yichen instead of him, because he would go through the pain rather than seeing his son being troubled.
Jing Zhongxiu knew what Jing Yichen had been through, and did not want him to experience that torture again.
Instead of letting the ten snipers seek the path, Jing Zhongxiu rearranged the martial artists and several elites so they could go into the passages.
When those men were organised, he sent the order to his men toe to the spot as quickly as possible.
Then, he and Lu found an entry and entered.
Ordinary gas would not affect Jing Zhongxiu and Lu. He had been trained and had a strong defense against drugs whilst the other was full of virus herself, unaffected by any poison.
The two of them searched five underground passages. Apart from one that injured them slightly, they went through the rest easily.
But as they went deeper into the underground, they found that the ce had been built into a beehive with all kinds of underground passages that were interlinked. There was no way to find a clear direction and the signal was too bad to make a phone call.
After half an hour of search, Jing Zhongxiu brought Lu back to the ground.
It would take at least five days for them to go through all the passages. The real entry must be one of them, too dangerous and difficult to reach.
This was an inefficient and time consuming way. Jing Yichen must be in grave danger down there. Every minute would increase the danger. Also, if Tang Shunian had been following his previous method, he would not have stored any food or water down there, but numerous crazy men who threw themselves upon Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen would be starved to death.
Jing Zhongxiu had trained Jing Yichen strictly, in the desert and isted ind, forcing him to eat all kinds of stuff just to survive. But that did not mean that he would be willing to make his son drink human blood!
Jing Yichens suffering made his heart ache. He did not want his son to go through these disgusting things.
Maybe Shangguan Ning could get them a real breakthrough.
Jing Zhongxiu wanted to call Shangguan Ning and ask how she was doing and if she was safe, but her phone was constantly busy.
Instead of calling again, he waited for Shangguan Ning to call him back.
Shangguan Ning must be in the conversation with Tang Shunian, otherwise she would not have rejected his call. She was more worried than him about Jing Yichen.
Shangguan Ning had seen the iing call from Jing Zhongxiu and was trying to end the conversation with Tang Shunian.
Mr. Tang, what about me giving you 100 billion now, and you keep the promise of not hurting my husband and letting me meet him.
Tang Shunian chuckled and showed a sinister smile as he asked calmly, Jing Zhongxiu is calling you now, right? You are in a hurry to report my situation to him, isnt it? Oh well, you better tell him that he and the men Jing Yichen brought with him, are still alive. I will let you and the old guy speak, because this would be thest time you speak with him. He will soon be a corpse!
Chapter 602 - A Hunch
Chapter 602: A Hunch
Shangguan Ning had not expected that Tang Shunian would be so sensitive. But he turned out to be way too smart!
He knew the cause of each of her movements!
No wonder even Jing Yichen got trapped by him!
Shangguan Ning did not try and offer any more exnations or ask anything about Jing Zhongxiu, because she was sure that Tang Shunian would not say the truth.
However, what Tang Shunian said had startled Shangguan Ning, and she suddenly got a terrible hunch.
She hung up on Tang Shunian and called Jing Zhongxiu, immediately.
The Buick car that was leading the way started to go off the highway, taking her towards a narrow path. She understood that she was not faraway from the destination now.
She needed to tell Jing Zhongxiu about this, as well.
The phone went through instantly. When Shangguan Ning heard Jing Zhongxius voice, she said hurriedly, Dad, you must be careful! Stay with your bodyguards. Tang Shunian has just said something weird and I am afraid that he has got a special n against you!
She hade to rescue Jing Yichen with Jing Zhongxiu, and could not allow Jing Zhongxiu to lose his life in the process. It would make Shangguan Ning very sad and she would me herself for the rest of her life.
Jing Zhongxiu was not surprised. Dozens of years ago, he had destroyed the Tang Family, making Tang Shunian fall into hell from heaven. Tang Shunian hated him to the marrow, otherwise he would not have tormented Jing Yichen to make him this angry.
It was expected that Tang Shunian would want to take revenge.
Dont worry, Ning, I am fine here. I have ten snipers and Lu as well. Nothing can threaten my safety. I understand what Tang Shunian is up to, and I will guard myself.
Jing Zhongxiu felt his heart fill up with warmth. Shangguan Ning cared about his situation even at this moment. She was more a daughter than a daughter-inw.
Shangguan Ning could not exin the hunch she had after she heard what Tang Shunian said. It was an ominous feeling, one that could not appease her even after she heard Lus name.
She was worried that Jing Zhongxiu was just consoling her and had not taken Tang Shunians intention seriously. He was a very scary and intelligent man with a deadly intent. He was not going to deal with Jing Zhongxiu by amon method!
Suppressing the panic inside her, Shangguan Nings trembling fingers clenched the phone tightly and she repeated her words in a stressed tone. Dad, you must believe me, I have a terrible feeling about this. You must be very, very careful! Ten snipers may not be enough, try to get more!
There were many times when someone in the family got a premonition for another. It wasmon among identical twins. But if two people were in a close and sincere rtionship, then that hunch could also turn out to be authentic.
Shangguan Ning was worried about Jing Yichen, yet she hadnt been uneasy. But after what Tang Shunian said, she became quite anxious.
A horrifying feeling engulfed her.
Jing Zhongxiu knew Shangguan Ning well and regarded her as his own daughter. He had been looking after her well-being for long and knew that she was a stable person. She might get anxious and angry, but didnt panic easily. She had stayed calm even after knowing that Jing Yichen was caught.
But at this moment, her voice had changed.
She was terrified!
He had seen Shangguan Ning being this anxious once before. That was when Jing Yichen got shot in the chest andy on the operation table with an unpredictable future!
Jing Zhongxiu didnt treat her words lightly. He said, Ning, I understand what you mean. I will gather more people around me and wont take unnecessary risks. I will be fine, I promise.
Shangguan Ning got slightly assured when she heard his words.
As long as Jing Zhongxiu was fully prepared, Tang Shunians n would not work.
If Tang Shunian had known that his casual words were being taken so seriously by Shangguan Ning, and even Jing Zhongxiu believed her, he would have regretted having said them.
Dad, stay where you are. Yichen should be safe right now. I havee to negotiate with Tang Shunian. As long as I give him money, he will take me to Yichen. Wait for my message!
Shangguan Ning was reminding Jing Zhongxiu not to look for Jing Yichen yet.
But Jing Zhongxiu could never agree to this proposal.
He would not allow Shangguan Ning to go in alone. He knew how cruel and twisted Tang Shunian could get. If Shangguan Ning fell into his hands, she would surely die or at least suffer gravely.
Ning, you must not go there alone. Take Lu along. With her next to you, you will be safe. I will arrange for some more people to be with you outside the cer. I dont want you to get injured.
Shangguan Ning rejected his offer immediately. No, keep her with you! Tang Shunian says that only I am allowed to meet him.
No, listen to me, let Lu be with you. She has her own method of getting in.
Jing Zhongxiu was more determined than she was. He did not allow Shangguan Ning to turn him down and asked Lu to go to her.
Lu was physically stronger than most people, and had great potential. She was powerful and could attack without getting hurt. She was able to deal with most of the crisis single handedly.
Shangguan Nings phone signal had been tracked, so Jing Zhongxiu knew where she was. He had noticed that she was approaching the ce where he was, so he asked Lu to wait for Shangguan Ning outside.
If Lu ran at full speed, she could be as fast as a car, and still would not get tired . After all, her body exceeded the limitations of the human race.
Shangguan Ning did not dwell on the issue any longer, but asked him for money in a slightly guilty voice. Dad, I need 100 billion yuan. I have made a deal with Tang Shunian and this amount is needed.
She felt that she had been a bad negotiator. It was a tremendous amount that would affect the root of Family Jing.
However, Jing Zhongxiu did not hesitate nor did he question the negotiation process and said, Okay, I am asking the Swiss Bank to transfer the money to you. Keep me posted.
For Jing Zhongxiu, money was not the issue. He did not care about the 100 billion yuan. As long as this money could lead Shangguan Ning to Jing Yichen, the money was well spent.
But he was worried that even if Tang Shunian got the money, he would not take Shangguan Ning to Jing Yichen.
Chapter 603 - Underground Kingdom
Chapter 603: Underground Kingdom
About a decade ago, B City conducted new municipal nning, under which old factories and enterprises were moved to the new industrial area which had a better location and offered wider upation.
The old industrial area was spread across thousands of square meters, and after the original factories moved from there, their facilities as well as the vegetation around them, still remained.
Because of serious environmental issues, the soil of thisnd was destroyed, making the water that streamed along, into a stinky sewer.
Many people in B City believed that this desertednd was sold to a businessman at a low price by the government. It was said that the businessman had tried to build an area of residential houses on thisnd, but because of economic problems, the construction was halted halfway.
As a result, this old industrial area had be a desertednd.
Shangguan Ning drove slowly into this abandoned ce following the Buick.
This area was one river apart from the deserted factory where Jing Zhongxiu was. He could see Shangguan Ninging out of the car, following dozens of men into a house.
The river was not deep nor did it have a fast current, but the river course had been expanded by Tang Shunian, purposefully. It was not easy to cross over.
Luckily, Jing Zhongxiu had a helicopter with him.
Shangguan Ning did not notice Jing Zhongxiu standing across the bank, but she did notice Lu who was hidden nearby.
She was not sure how Lu, who had been with Jing Zhongxiu ten minutes ago, reached here so fast. But she didnt show any reaction and followed the fierce looking men into the abandoned residential house.
It was totally dark inside the house with at least ten entries on the first floor, each of which was well designed and looked identical. Even if an outsider found this ce, he would not be able to find the correct door.
Fingerprints were required at the entry, and three men were needed to put in their fingerprints so that the door could open.
Shangguan Ning followed those men underground. They passed six doors and reached a cer.
Lu killed a man with a simr body shape silently at the entry, and changed into his clothes. She followed Shangguan Ning and entered the underground area.
In case fingerprints of this man were required, she had cut his hands and worn them over hers.
It was a good thing that she did that, because dozens of men were required at one door or the other. Every third door, three mens fingerprints were needed, and one of them belonged to the man whom Lu had killed.
However, when they came to the cer, everyone stopped. Shangguan Ning was the only one allowed to enter the ce.
Lu had no choice but to stay out and let Shangguan Ning enter alone.
Shangguan Ning took a deep breath, and walked in slowly as the door opened.
After walking through a long passage, she reached an open ce.
A golden colored hall was in front of her.
There was slow music in the room, and a fancy wine colored carpet was on the floor. A dazzling chandelier hung from the roof and there was a white table and chairs along with golden tes to match the decor. Some fresh fruit and scrumptious desserts were ced on the table.
It did not look like a cer, but a luxurious pce.
Wee to my underground kingdom, Miss Shangguan!
A catchy male voice reached Shangguan Ning, startling her.
She moved her gaze and saw a man rising from somewhere below the ground of the hall.
Shangguan Ning was a bit startled. She realised that this gentle looking man must be Tang Shunian!
How much did he like staying underground, that he built a ce like this?
She had a good memory, but still could not remember the passages which she had crossed and suspected that she would not be able to walk out of here without a guide! Also, it seemed that there were some more cers below this hall, from where Tang Shunian came up.
Tang Shunian came to Shangguan Ning with steady steps, sizing her up with interest.
She looked fresh and vital dressed in white, fitted sportswear.
She had shoulder length hair, and the bottom tip of it reflected golden brown color, thest remains of dyed hair. Tang Shunian hated women with dyed hair. All the old women who once tormented him had dyed theirs, and he felt disgusted when he saw such women.
But to his surprise, he found himselfpletely fine with Shangguan Nings hair.
Could it be because of her beautiful appearance, snowy white skin and her crystal clear eyes?
Or could it be because she neither panicked nor looked frightened as she stood there, showing greatposure?
She was like a blooming magnolia, elegant and pure, fresh and quiet.
Tang Shunian found his dead soul reviving at the sight of her!
Or maybe his heart had finally flipped for a girl.
Tang Shunian showed a smile and whispered, Finally, the girl herself...
None of the phones did justice to her. He had thought that her pictures had shown her best look. But instead, those photos had just captured her appearance, not her air.
Shangguan Ning could hear Tang Shunians whisper.
She got slightly confused.
What did he mean?
Tang Shunian understood Shangguan Nings confusion as if he could read her mind.
He showed a perfectly handsome smile and said, Miss Shangguan, you are indeed special. But you seem to be confused about my knowing you from before. Well, it is not a secret. Jing Yichen also knows about it. I was very interested in knowing you, so I ordered my men to click your pictures so that I could see you every single day. It feels that I know you well, in fact it seems that I have known you for a very long time!
Shangguan Ning had not seen thising.
He saw her pictures every single day?
His words made Shangguan Ning feel very ufortable.
Chapter 604 - A Rose with Thorns
Chapter 604: A Rose with Thorns
Shangguan Ning was pretty aware of what she was capable of. She never thought of herself as someone beautiful, because Shangguan Rouxue had always been the prettier one.
Ever since childhood, there were numerous guys courting Shangguan Rouxue whilst only a few courted her.
She thought that she was not hideous, but not that strikingly beautiful, either. When she was praised, she was considered as someone with a proper air. That was how one wasplemented, who had nothing else to be praised about.
So she could not believe it that Tang Shunian had been moved just by looking at her pictures.
There must be some other reason.
Although Shangguan Ning detested Tang Shunian a great deal, she had to admit that he was good looking, even his voice was catchy enough topete with the most melodious ones out there.
It was rtively cold in the cer, and Tang Shunian was dressed in a light grey suit and a dark striped shirt of the same color. He was not wearing a tie. His hair was short and neat. His nose bridge was tall and had moist thin lips.
Had Shangguan Ning not been aware of Tang Shunians real personality, she would have truly believed him to be a well-bred gentleman.
Unfortunately, however gentle Tang Shunian was behaving at the moment, she knew that he was an evil guy under the garb of human skin.
She did not want to talk with him any more. In a straightforward manner, she said, Where is my husband? I want to see him.
Dont you like this ce? This is the pce where you are going to live in the future, arent you pleased with it? If you dont like it, I can tear it down, and rebuild one for your sake. I need to build a golden house to keep a pretty girl like you in it, otherwise you will be exposed to others. Tang Shunian did not sound pissed. Instead, he was behaving like a gentleman, showing great patience.
Shangguan Ning threw a nce around the glittering hall and asked suddenly, How old are you, Mr. Tang?
Tang Shunian was at a loss of words. He could not catch up with Shangguan Nings mind but answered out of curiosity. I am 36. Am I too old for you?
Oh, you were not born in the rat year. Then why do you like living in this damp cave? Shangguan Ning looked confused as if she truly could not grasp the answer.
But Tang Shunian could tell how sarcastic her words were.
She was saying that he was a rat!
What a white rose with thorns! How wonderful!
He preferred this kind of woman who was sharp and who had her own ideas and ways of thinking, not someone who followed his words just because she wanted to please him.
He was going to enjoy training this woman until she turned into a docile rabbit from a hedgehog.
Especially, when this woman was Jing Yichens wife!
It seems that you dont like it here. Tang Shunian still showed a smile, except that it was gone from his eyes, and was reced with coldness.
It is alright, you will like it soon. It is hidden and full of danger. Most peoplee in but never get out of my underground kingdom. In the past many years, Jing Yichen has been the only one who managed to get out of here, and he seeded only because I was careless. I am sure that you wont be able to escape even if you try.
Ignoring what he said, Shangguan Ning took out her phone and said, Dont you want the 100 billion? I have already got the money. Tell me your ount number, and I can transfer the money to you. Of course, that is after you let me meet my husband.
She truly was not in a mood to chit chat with Tang Shunian. Her anxiety had skyrocketed already.
Tang Shunian was a devil, and Shangguan Ning could not begin to imagine how much he had tormented Jing Yichen uptil now. She wanted to meet him as soon as possible and take him away from here!
Ning, do you really think that you are in the position to negotiate with me? Dont ask for too much just because I adore you.
Shangguan Ning felt that his words were creepy. Without showing any expression, she said calmly, I am not asking for too much and I am not negotiating with you either. This is what you must do to show your sincerity.
She said as she put the phone back into her pocket. Then, she took out an exquisite pistol and aimed at Tang Shunians forehead, speaking slowly, Am I in a position to negotiate with you now?
Tang Shunian threw a look at the pistol aiming at him, then stared at Shangguan Ning in astonishment. He started tough wildly.
Shangguan Ning frowned and asked coldly. Is it funny?
Tang Shunian was out of breath because ofughing so hard. He waved at Shangguan Ning and said, Hold on, let meugh first. No one has dared to aim a pistol at me in so many years. How rare!
Shangguan Ning was not sure what he wasughing at, but she did not drop the pistol.
Finally, Tang Shunian looked at Shangguan Ning nonchntly. Do you think that I am too stupid or trust you deeply?
Shangguan Ning stayed silent. So, he answered his own question. Obviously, neither. I let you in with this kind of dangerous weapon, because I know you wont shoot me. If I die, Jing Yichen dies with me! Also, you will never be able to walk out of this underground kingdom. How does that sound? Want to still finish me?
Shangguan Ning had known that he would threaten her with Jing Yichen and knew that it would not be so easy to kill Tang Shunian. This pistol was in her pocket for emergency, only.
She put the pistol back into her pocket and spoke without showing panic, Since I cant kill you, and I am under your control, then you dont need to worry about me breaking my promise. On the contrary, you are in an advantageous ce. But I need to see my husband first before I transfer the money to you, in case you break your promise.
Tut, I feel so tickled when I see you trying to be so smart.
Tang Shunian raised his hand and reached out for Shangguan Nings face, trying to feel her tender and clean skin.
It was the first time in so many years for him to want to touch a woman.
Although he was not sure if he would puke after he touched her face, the desire to do so was already enough for him.
At least, he did not feel like rejecting her.
It was a good omen for Tang Shunian.
Seeing his outstretched hand, Shangguan Ning dodged it by leaning sideways. Then she took a quick step back, creating distance between them.
Chapter 605 - Plan
Chapter 605: n
Tang Shunian got slightly startled when he failed to touch her.
A mixed feeling arose inside, making him feel that if he truly touched Shangguan Ning, he might still get nausea.
But the intensity of it might turn out to be lesser than usual.
It seemed that his obsession towards cleanness could be cured, as long as he was with the right person.
He withdrew his hand and hung it by his side.
You dont like it if I touch you?
Shangguan Ning shook her head with determination as she saw his gentle and affectionate look. Of course not! You are crossing the line! You disgust me.
Instead of being pissed, Tang Shunian agreed. Oh, I do understand this feeling, because before I met you, I felt like puking whenever a woman approached me.
But. He changed the topic and said with raised eyebrows, So far, you are the woman who isnt making me feel disgusted, so, you probably need to stay with me.
I am married.
Doesnt matter. I dont mind it.
I have a child. You better go look for younger and prettier women!
It is alright, I can make you childless! You are prettier than any other woman whom I know. I dont think that I can find anyone more suitable than you.
Shangguan Ning knew that Tang Shunian was not joking. He could truly threaten Jing Ruis safety.
And that was not something that she would tolerate.
She and Jing Yichen could get injured, but she would not allow Jing Rui to get hurt. He was too young to know anything and needed their care and protection.
Shangguan Ning didnt waste any more time talking about her child with him. She tried to suppress her anxiety and said in a cold voice, When can I see my husband?
Tang Shunian stayed silent for a long while. Then he said, Since you insist, I can take you there. But I dont want you to die there, otherwise I will suffer a big loss.
Shangguan Ning was a bit surprised that he agreed so fast. Relieved, she said, Isnt it you who has my life in your hand? I wont be able to live if you want me to die. And I wont kill myself if you want me to live. After all, this is your underground kingdom. Can we go now?
Give me the 100 billion first. If you die, I can at least have the money. Not everything will be in vain, then.
He had been a devoted, loving man a minute ago, and now he regarded her as nothing. Shangguan Ning felt quite nervous in the presence of this fickle man.
It seemed by his words that Jing Yichen was in a very dangerous ce.
Anxious, she took out the phone and transferred the money to Tang Shunians ount.
Having gained so much money, Tang Shunian felt very happy. At least in the following two or three years, he did not need to worry about money. He could buy thetest advanced technology to build even more solid cers and get more men to help him.
He used to be a rich guy who did not need to worry a thing about survival. But after he turned poor, he became a dog that was trampled upon by everyone, someone who didnt even have clothes or food.
Therefore, he had gotten into a habit of making as much money as possible.
Tang Shunian felt that it was a good deal to gain so much money just for taking Shangguan Ning to Jing Yichen.
What was more, he had anyways nned to take Shangguan Ning to Jing Yichen. He must be in a mess right now and possibly in the middle of a session with those crazy, strong men.
If Shangguan Ning saw this scene, Jing Yichen might lose hisst shred of self-respect. He was such an arrogant man who might not be able to live on if he was seen by his wife in this way.
Also, Shangguan Ning may find it disgusting enough for her to forget about this man.
As for Shangguan Nings son Jing Rui, Tang Shunian could kill him whenever he wanted to. He was not a threat to him and he did not care if that infant lived for a few more days.
Tang Shunian had aimed at Jing Zhongxiu, Jing Yichen and their vast properties. But now, he had another goal C Shangguan Ning.
She was a woman who could make him feelfortable, someone he would not let go of so easily!
Alright then, you can leave now. Someone will take you there. Dont wander about, and dont try to contact Jing Zhongxiu, otherwise you will die! I have strict rules for my underground kingdom and everyone should follow the rules. You are not an exception.
Having said the words, Tang Shunian opened the hall gate and Shangguan Ning walked out.
The men standing outside showed great courtesy towards Shangguan Ning. She was the only woman who had been able to get close to Tang Shunian in the past few years. Tang Shunian had already instructed them that Shangguan Ning must not be injured, otherwise they would all die.
Shangguan Ning could tell their deferential attitude apart, but she did not care about it. These men would not help her no matter what, because they were Tang Shunians men.
All she wanted was to find Jing Yichen and escape this underground maze with him.
Shangguan Ning followed Tang Shunians men for a very long time. At some ces, she felt a bit out of breath and dizzy. Due to the dim light, she could not see anything or remember the path.
After a long while, they finally came to a heavy stone gate.
Unexpectedly, this gate did not require any fingerprints for the entry. Anyone could enter there.
But none of the guides entered, only Shangguan Ning was allowed to go in.
Lu did not want Shangguan Ning to go in alone. She already knew that Jing Yichen must be in this cer and she needed to get the man out, not to leave Shangguan Ning alone in the danger.
As the other men saw Lu trying to enter the gate, they tried to stop her. But within a few seconds, the six guides were all gone before they could even let out a scream, copsing onto the floor.
Shangguan Ning was startled!
She threw a look at these six men and turned pale when she saw Lus poised face.
Chapter 606 - Drinking Blood?!
Chapter 606: Drinking Blood?!
Shangguan Ning had always regarded Lu as a child. Although she was aware of her real identity, she had not witnessed her killing people in such a cruel, and quick way. Lu had not even blinked.
In Shangguan Nings eyes, she seemed to be creating a movie scene with special effects when she was killing those people.
She did not even know how these people died, because there was no trace of blood on them and their eyes were wide open.
Shangguan Ning did not feelpassionate towards these people. It was just that she was a bit uneasy when she saw so many people dead at the same time.
Lu was used to killing people, and she felt nothing.
I will take the lead, you follow behind. Stay close.
Lu said calmly, and then started to walk through the narrow door that was intended only for one person.
Without any hesitation, Shangguan Ning followed her in.
But the moment they entered the passage, the door closed with a loud sound. However hard Shangguan Ning tried to push it open, the door did not move even an inch. She could not help but feel very anxious. What if they were never able to get out?
Lu threw a simple look at it and said, This door is only for entry. I have seen these kinds of doors before. Master Jing should be able to break the code.
When Shangguan Ning heard that, she left the door alone and said, Alright, lets go and find him.
Lu nodded and led the way in the dim cer.
The cer was quite dark, but Lu had no problem in seeing because her eyesight was far better than that of ordinary beings.
Shangguan Ning soon got used to the darkness, but the thin air in the cer and the rotten smell of blood air made her very ufortable.
It was a disgusting smell. As the smell stimted her senses, Shangguan Ning could not help but puke after a bit.
Lu stopped to wait for her, and then she heard some faint sound of fighting and the smell of fresh blood.
She was very sensitive towards blood. Fresh blood could stimte her brain cells and keep her active and motivated.
Shangguan Ning forced herself to stand up after a bit. I am done, lets go on.
She was suffering from tremendous stress, both physically and psychologically. She wondered how Jing Yichen had managed to survive under this kind of environment.
Tang Shunian had told her that Jing Yichen once stayed in the cer for three days before managing to get out of here.
How powerful and strong he must have been that he was able to hold on for so many days!
Following Lu, Shangguan Ning walked ahead as tears trickled down alongside her cheeks.
She wiped off the tears quickly. Lu, as usual, had no reaction towards the environment.
Shangguan Ning was very d to have Lu with her. If she had been alone, she would not even be able to tell the direction or tolerate the disgusting smell. She would have spent hours in finding Jing Yichen.
This cer was reallyrge, and it seemed to be built in a spiral shape. Shangguan Ning walked with Lu for at least half an hour and turned around in circles before finally hearing the clear sound of fighting.
There was faint lighting from there. Shangguan Ning could see the blood bath around her.
Suddenly, a stinging smell of sweetness reached her nose. Shangguan Ning did not know what this smell meant, but Lu did.
She turned around and stretched out her arm towards Shangguan Ning and said calmly, Bite open my arm and drink some of my blood.
Huh?
Shangguan Ning had been eager to follow the sound of fighting and felt that Jing Yichen was not very far away.
But what Lu had said, shocked her.
Drink her blood?! That would never happen.
Lu also understood that her words sounded unbearable. Actually, she had killed numerous people, but she had never drunk anyones blood, either. It was not an easy thing to do.
She exined to Shangguan Ning calmly. There is a strong drug circting in the air. People might get sexually motivated if they take in too much of it, and may lose their consciousness just to seek fun. I have a virus in my blood that can stop you from being affected. The effects of that virus can stay inside you for a couple of hours during which time, you wont be influenced.
Shangguan Ning knew that Lu had a special kind of blood, but she did not know that she had a virus inside her body!
But even if she understood why Lu asked her to drink the blood, she could not ept the proposal.
Seeing that she did not make a move, Lu withdrew her arm, opened her mouth and bit open her fingertip. She pinched Shangguan Nings chin without courtesy and made her blood flow into her mouth.
Had it not been because she had just changed the blood, Lu would not have given Shangguan Ning her blood, because the virus inside her was way too destructive for Shangguan Ning to be immune to. But due to the blood transnt, the virus inside her was still under control, not fatal enough to break her down. There might be someplications, but that was better than making Shangguan Ning lose her mind.
After Shangguan Ning was forced to drink down the sticky blood, the smell of blood soon filled up her nose. It was a worse feeling than dying!
She used to enjoy watching vampire shows and found them quite cool when they were drinking blood.
But from today on, she decided never to watch vampire shows any more!
And she would probably puke whenever she saw blood in the future!
Even at this moment, she was feeling quite disgusted. She wanted to puke out everything.
But Lus blood was indeed weird. After she gulped it down, it went inside, making it impossible for her to puke it out!
Dont stress over it. My blood has an active virus that would attach itself to the cells inside your body. By now it must have blended itself with your blood.
Lu exined softly when she saw Shangguan Ning feeling nauseous.
Sorry, it is thest thing I would like to do, and my blood may leave you withplications. After we get out of here, you must get yourself checked thoroughly. But during this time, your physical functions would be elevated, like eyesight, hearing and drug resistant abilities.
Shangguan Ning was also trying to distract herself from the feelings inside her body. When she heard what Lu said, she realised that her eyesight and hearing had already improved!
Chapter 607 - The Meeting
Chapter 607: The Meeting
The consequence of the improvement was that Shangguan Ning started to puke even more.
All this while, she had thought that they were walking in a pool of water. But now with her improved eyesight, she could see clearly what was on the ground in the faint light.
The liquid was not water, but blood! It was everywhere in this empty cer!
Also, her sense of smell had also improved. The rotten smell in the air made her feel suffocated.
Anyone would be seriously impacted if she stood in a sea of blood.
But Shangguan Ning was coping with the change in her senses, because she was really concerned about Jing Yichen, and the environment was not as important right now.
She had puked out everything and she was standing with her hands against the column.
Shangguan Ning straightened up, and nodded at Lu, indicating that they could go ahead.
After a quarter of an hour, Shangguan Ning found herselfing to the deepest point of the underground cer and could see things more and more clearly. The sound of fighting started to be very clear as well.
There was a faint light hanging from above, making the ground brighter than the rest of the ce. It was still dark inside, but Shangguan Ning was able to see what was happening with Lus blood inside her body.
There were corpses everywhere in this ce, bodies of men and women, rotting or newly dead.
On one spot where bodies were piled up, there was a group of strong men fighting and attacking. The man who was fighting against them had already got a bloodied face.
But even then, Shangguan Ning knew who he was, instinctively.
Shangguan Ning could not help but have tears trickling down her cheeks at the sight of him. She wanted to cry out his name but feared that he would be distracted, and run into trouble.
Jing Yichen was feeling really exhausted at the moment. Had it not been for Tigers presence who took turns helping him, he would have copsed by now.
There were numerous peopleing at them and Tiger was injured andrgely affected by the drugs. He was on the verge of losing his mind.
Right at that moment, he seemed to have a feeling down his spine. He looked across the room, and could see a slender woman standing at a distance away from him.
Startled, he had a touch of gentleness crossing his lethal eyes.
But the moment he was distracted, someone gave him a kick. Injured on the calf, he stumbled, and pulled himself up. He resumed the fight.
Shangguan Ning and Lu had been besieged by lots of people.
The moment she and Lu entered, many peoples attention was drawn towards them. They were all men and of course, were more interested in women.
Jing Yichen was a tough cookie, but these two women seemed to be a fat piece of meat.
Shangguan Ning was not a match against them, but Lu did not use much effort in killing these people.
She killed them like she was cutting vegetables. With a loud banging sound, they would copse, unable to get up.
Everyone realized that this small woman was not a piece of fat meat, but a tougher bone than Jing Yichen!
Lu was more skilled than Jing Yichen in killing people. She was a professional killer ranked at number two in the world. She had already killed more people than Jing Yichen did, in such a short time.
Jing Yichen only killed when it was necessary, and most of the time, he did not have to do it himself. Lu always did the killing herself and she thrived on it. She killed everyone who was against her.
What was more, Lu was full of energy, currently. She was agile and strong. She could win within minutes even if there were dozens of peopleing at her.
So when Lu joined the killing, Tang Shunians men started dying at a high rate.
Shangguan Ning had the pistol in her hand, standing close to Lu. She did not kill people. She knew that her mission was to keep herself safe.
She did not use the gun, because there were only six bullets in it and they were intended for the most important moment.
She and Jing Yichen were just 100 meters away from each other, but it was impossible for them to cover the gap. The ce was full of people and they lunged at her and Lu without any fear towards death. They were like animals without a brain, out on a killing spree.
...
Jing Zhongxius phone could not track Shangguan Nings location any more after she entered the deserted residential house.
Apparently, her signal had been blocked inside.
His men kepting to the ce and Zheng Jing also brought his men along with arge number of anti-poison masks.
He divided the men into two sections, one searching for Jing Yichen in this area, the other taking the helicopter over the river and go to the residential house.
Jing Zhongxiu suspected that Tang Shunian must be under this residential house. So he was going to search for him with his own men.
There were many entries inside, and three crossings were divided after they entered the ce, each of which led to the deep side of the underground cers.
Jing Zhongxiu and his men spent a lot of time breaking the fingerprint code. The gates were built with fine steel and even bombs could not open them.
On many asions, animals were far more skilled at tracking.
The police dog which Zheng Jing brought with him, yed an unexpectedly wonderful role. It followed the path which Shangguan Ning had walked and arrived at the golden hall where Shangguan Ning had been taken to.
Shangguan Ning was here sometime ago, and hence, it had been easy for the dog to follow her tracks.
The police dog lingered on the spot where Shangguan Ning and Tang Shunian had stood upon earlier. Zheng Jing said to Jing Zhongxiu instantly, Sister-inw must have met someone here!
Jing Zhongxiu nodded. Must be Tang Shunian. He should be around this area. Get some people here, and st everything if you cant find anybody!
Zheng Jing nodded and asked his men to carry out the order.
However, at this moment, the hall started to shake as if an earthquake was approaching.
Chapter 608 - A Narrow Escape
Chapter 608: A Narrow Escape
The chandeliers hanging from the roof trembled before falling down one after another. The fruits and goblets ced on the table also fell on the carpet.
The gate to the hall had been forced open by Jing Zhongxius men, but now, the gate was closing at a high speed.
A loud banging sound arose all around.
The dozens of underground passages that led to this ce were copsing one after another.
Tang Shunian was trying to trap them here!
Jing Zhongxiu instantly rushed towards the gate.
He had been thinking about Shangguan Nings reminder to watch out for potential danger around him, so instead of going into the center of the hall, he had been standing by the gate talking with Zheng Jing.
He had just rushed out when the gate shut, followed by an even louder banging sounding from inside.
That golden hall had been built with a strange kind of material. The violent banging did not lead to any copsing, and the gate stayed still without any destruction.
Jing Zhongxiu felt sweat covering his back!
Had it not been Shangguan Nings reminder that he should be careful, he would not have been cautious and entered the hall fully for careful inspection.
The bombing was violent. If he had stayed inside, he would have died!
Even though he managed to escape, his men inside could not survive.
Good that the police dog had been more careful than men, so that the moment the change started, he had dashed off the ce.
But it was not a very safe ce outside the hall as well. It seemed that bombs were everywhere and they were going off, one after another. Zheng Jing, who hade out before them, was injured on his legs. Instead of running away, he tried his best to keep the police dog safe.
That police dog was cultivated by Zheng Jing personally and had helped a great deal to solve numerous cases. It was a very smart police dog, one that was fed and bred by Zheng Jing.
He had a deep affection towards this dog. He would rather get injured than see the dog get hurt. He had brought him for the case and had every intention to take him back safe and sound.
The police dog understood that Zheng Jing was protecting him, so he instantly curled up on the ground, allowing Zheng Jing to cover him without moving an inch.
The violent bombing had broken the underground passages, throwing stones everywhere. Sound of screams and pain arose everywhere.
Jing Zhongxius men were all very loyal towards him. They did not care about their own safety but kept him protected, shielding himpletely.
When everyone was trying to dodge the bombing, Tang Shunians wildughter arose from every corner of the cer. Hahaha! Jing Zhongxiu, serves you right! How stupid you have be. I have waited for you for too long and you came in with just a stupid dog. You bombed my men years back. Now, it is your turn to taste your own medicine. Dont worry, your son will soon keep youpany in hell and your daughter-inw will be my woman! Hahaha...
No one cared about what Tang Shunian was saying, not even Jing Zhongxiu. He would normally have gotten very furious, but he was focusing upon staying alive at the moment.
The bomb ststed for a very long time. All the underground passages were blocked with no way to get out.
After Jing Zhongxiu and Zheng Jing counted the remaining men, it turned out that half of their people had died. It was a grim situation.
Luckily, the police dog was fine, otherwise they would not have been able to get out.
However, Jing Zhongxiu was not in a hurry to get out. He had not found Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen. If they left like this, all the efforts would be for nothing.
Under the guidance of the police dog, they dug another passage and through that, they came to the door which Shangguan Ning and Lu had entered.
The door opened easily. When Jing Zhongxiu and his men entered the ce, the door was shut, followed by Tang Shunians voice once again. Jing Zhongxiu, wee to my underground kingdom. I am the king here. Once you have entered this door, you will not be able to get out! Haha, it is you who wanted to enter hell! Congrattions, you havee to your death.
Jing Zhongxiu had already noticed that the door was only for entering, not for leaving. But he did not panic.
He ignored Tang Shunians voice. He was not scared of Tang Shunians tricks.
There were many of his men seeking every single passage, and some breakthroughs had been made. Although it would cost a lot of effort to find him, it was not impossible to do so.
Jing Zhongxiu had experienced far more risky crises in his life. He had been through all kinds of pains which Jing Yichen had experienced, some were even worse.
He was capable of surviving and adapting himself to the environment. What was more, he had vast power in his hands and he was quite good at using it, thus achieving a great deal in his life!
He might be in a disadvantageous ce at this moment, yet soon he would turn the tables.
Tang Shunians underground kingdom had caused Jing Zhongxiu a lot of trouble, but that did not discourage him. He was only slightly injured, and stayed calm and poised.
Jing Zhongxiu decided to move ahead with a few people and left the rest to keep Zheng Jing safe and try to open the door.
Zheng Jings legs had been injured and he should not continue to move around. Jing Zhongxiu wanted to send him to the hospital, but getting medical treatment at the moment was not very realistic, considering that they were all trapped.
Zheng Jing was a bit pale, but his wound was not fatal. Instead of forcing himself to go any further, he obeyed Jing Zhongxius order, and stayed still to prevent even more bleeding.
Once Jing Zhongxiu made sure that Zheng Jing was well settled, he went deep inside the passage with his men.
Tang Shunians voice followed him wherever he went, and Jing Zhongxiu, who had always been patient, started to get a bit annoyed by that noise.
But his men were well trained. As they were talking, they shot down all the CCTV cameras and audio. Half an hourter, Tang Shunians voice finally disappeared.
Chapter 609 - Failure
Chapter 609: Failure
For the very first time in her life, Shangguan Ning understood what mass ughter meant. And she also understood how capable this killer was.
She had seen hundreds of men surrounding Lu and her and was worried. She only had six bullets in the pistol, and simply could not kill them all even if she was armed.
But when Lu was protecting her and handling these men, she was in an advantageous ce.
She was not using any fancy tricks, just a simple pat on the body. If too many men came at her, she would use both hands and legs, causing loud screams in the cer.
Lu had not fought with so many people in a long time. Probably it was because of the virus inside her body, but she liked it when she had to kill so many people.
When she had been at the training camp back then, her fellows would consider her easy to bully, so they kept causing her trouble, but all of them turned up injured or dead. After she beat everyone there, she became the best performer of that session, making everyone scared of her.
She was fearless, and was very cruel while fighting. It was exciting for her to fight. Every time she was in a fight with many people, she would be stimted. She realised that fighting could reduce the pain which the virus brought to her and helped her not lose her mind.
Just like now, when she scattered a strong mans inner organs and pushed another man several meters away, she felt that her body was full of strength. She even became happy and a faint smile hovered over her lips.
She was so effective, that hundreds of men who had surrounded her and Shangguan Ning were gone within a short time, and the men who surrounded Jing Yichen were reduced tremendously, too.
Looking through the camera, Tang Shunian turned a bit annoyed when he saw his men gone within such a short time.
He had paid a great attention to Jing Yichens ability, so he had 2,000 men attacking Jing Yichen and Tiger. But these two men, who were not supposed to survive till now, had almost killed all of the men he sent to them.
Jing Yichen was always at the verge of copsing in each siege, but he never did.
And this small-looking woman in ck whom Shangguan Ning brought with her turned out to be even more capable than Jing Yichen. She killed people in the same way as she was drinking and eating. Where did this weirdoe from?
He had never paid attention to Lu in the past. As far as he was concerned, she was strong, but not that intelligent. She was like a teenage girl who had no brain. But what the camera had shown him was that she was indeed a mature woman who was good at confronting danger. She was intelligent and more capable than ordinary people.
Tang Shunian felt his heart dripping blood when he saw all of the 2,000 people killed. How was it possible?
Although Tang Shunian was wealthy, cultivating 2,000 fighters had not been that easy. Not everyone was willing to live like a rat in a dark cer where the air was dank. People would get both mentally and physically sick after living underground for so long. A lot of people died every single day.
But he could not possibly allow these people to go in and out as they wish, otherwise the underground kingdom would be easily exposed to the world.
Hands clenched into fists, Tang Shunian looked very fierce at this moment.
His men could not die in vain. When Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen were both in the cer, they would not be able to survive!
He had thought that Jing Zhongxiu would have died in the bombing, but he managed to avoid it!
Luckily, he had other things nned for him, otherwise Jing Zhongxiu would have escaped once again!
But as Jing Zhongxiu was walking forward, many devices had been destroyed, and Tang Shunian could not keep a check on the situation down there. All he could see was what was happening to Jing Yichen.
The only thing he could do now was to activate the bombing device, but with that, all the passages and cers would copse. Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen would die, so would his men.
Shangguan Ning as well, and that was not what Tang Shunian wanted.
He had not even tried to touch her properly yet. He had been waiting for such a woman for years and he could not let her die in this way.
But that was not the most important thing. The key point was that when the bomb was activated, the exit would be exposed and Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen would be able to see the gate!
He had spent so many efforts and years waiting to see the father and the son die in hell, so that he could get the properties of the Jing Family.
Standing in front of the camera and watching his men die one after another, Tang Shunian got very annoyed.
He was definitely going to kill the father and the son, so he ordered everyone to enter that cer, and allowed his men to bring guns.
Normally, Tang Shunian did not allow anyone armed in the kingdom, only he was allowed to have a gun with him, otherwise those crazy people might lose their senses and kill him or his fellows.
But Tang Shunian did not care about that any more. At this rate, without guns, Jing Yichen would manage to survive!
After he sent all of his men to deal with Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen, he took the elevator and hurried up to the ground.
He felt that the underground ce was experiencing a quake. Jing Zhongxius men had been bombing it, creating an earthquake-like effect.
His room was solid and could not copse, but the quake made him feel dizzy and ufortable and if he stayed here any longer, he would get a concussion.
He had many underground worlds in B City and he could shift to another ce if this ce waspromised.
But as he went up, he realised there was almost no secure ce left because of Jing Zhongxius bomb, and Tang Shunian did not dare to expose himself on the ground. He went back to the cer, wanting to use the back-up passage.
Chapter 610 - A Missed Chance
Chapter 610: A Missed Chance
In the luxurious, fancy underground pce built by Tang Shunian, there was a sinister yet charming looking man sitting on the white leather sofa.
The man was dressed in a date colored suit. His dark green shirt and ck shoes shone as he sat with his legs crossed. His narrow eyes reflected his calmness while he held a cup of red wine in his hand.
On the white marble table, there were numerous red wine bottles which had been opened.
These bottles of red wine had been a part of Tang Shunians collection during the past many years, but now they were gone.
The man in the red suit sat still as he saw Tang Shunian return to his ce. He was sitting there as if it was his own home, showing no embarrassment of running into the owner.
His long fingers were holding the swiss crystal goblet. He raised his eyebrows at Tang Shunian, showing a charming smile. His lips carried the stain of the red wine. Mr. Tang, why are you back again? Are you here to have a drink with me? Haha, Jing Zhongxius men would be here very soon and your wine will be ruined, so I have to sacrifice my stomach to save you some.
Tang Shunian felt furious. He felt that the top of his head was about to burst.
He bellowed loudly. Jing Yiran! Arent you dead already? What are you doing here? Get the hell out of here, now!
Tang Shunian was bellowing in fury, but he was inwardly confused about this man.
He was the only person who could open the door of the cer, with his fingerprints.
What was more, this cer waspletely hidden and with no one as a guide, it was impossible to find the cer.
Even Jing Zhongxiu had failed to find it, how did Jing Yiran make it to this ce?!
Jing Yiran looked at Tang Shunian and said with a bright smile, Oh, Mr. Tang, you know who I am? As far as I remember, it is our meeting, isnt it? Could it be because of my brush with death that a good-looking mayor like you has slipped out of my ill-functioning brain?
Bah, I know everyone in the Jing Family! Tang Shunian looked lethal. He was furious that his underground kingdom had been discovered by Jing Yiran so easily that he almost lost his mind.
So you are not dead! Seems that you were ying with Jing Yichen. But it is okay, all three men of the Jing Family will die here today!
Jing Yiran did not care about Tang Shunians threat. He was used to being threatened, because Jing Yichen had done that before many times. He died once and now had simply no reaction towards these kinds of threats.
He took another sip of the wine and leaned against the sofa. He stretched a finger to wave at Tang Shunian and smiled with azy look. You are wrong. Me and Jing Yichen are the worst enemies in the world, and he does not deserve my coboration.
Jing Yiran said as he pointed at his own head and said indifferently, There is a bullet inside my head that can kill me anytime. Are you willing to enter this kind of coboration?
As he spoke, another loud sound arose outside, making his red wine ripple. The bottles on the marble table banged against each other.
Ah! Cant these people throw a smaller bomb? Look at these bottles! They are ready to break. The sound is way too loud, my head aches.
Tang Shunian did not believe what Jing Yiran was saying at the moment. He had learnt that the brothers were each others worst enemy and Jing Yichen had killed Jing Yiran.
But Jing Yiran was sitting in front of him and in such a rxed manner. He was sure that Jing Yiran was here to help Jing Yichen, no matter how terrible the brothers rtionship was and how far he had been from the Jing Family.
Trembling in anger, Tang Shunian was very pissed at his men. None of them had given him the right information. He had been feeling sorry for their death, but now, he wished that he had killed those stupid pigs with his own hands, instead!
Jing Yiran, how did you get in?!
Tang Shunian could ignore every other issue, but he must know the answer to this one, because it had to do with his efforts and confidence. If Jing Yiran was able toe in and out of the underground maze at his own will, then it meant that he was at the mercy of Jing Yiran.
Oh, well, I can tell you about it, because you dont have much time to live.
Jing Yiran looked generous and tolerant as he said this in an annoying tone, You are just someone with vast wealth, someone who knows how to dig holes like a rat. I may dislike Jing Yichen, but he is, I have to admit, the smartest man that I have ever seen! You truly are nothingpared to him.
Tang Shunian widened his eyes in disbelief. Jing Yichen? Thats impossible!
Of course it is possible. Do you think that your rat holes can trap him? How childish! Before he was caught here by you, he had already arranged his men to break through your rat hole. But you have been tricky enough to dy their speed, otherwise I could havee in and spoken with you ages ago. See, you have just missed a great opportunity to talk about life with me. Hell would not be treating you so nicely!
Jing Yiran talked way too much. He was always interested in babbling while Lu was a silent person. He seemed to be very excited today to answer all of Tang Shunians questions.
What is your ce made of? Solid like a tortoises back, water-proof and fire-proof, bullet-proof. I would not have been able to enter if I had not taken Jing Yichens code breaker two days ago!
Chapter 611 - No Relation
Chapter 611: No Rtion
Tang Shunian nearly fainted when he heard Jing Yirans words!
He had been very proud of this underground kingdom, which Jing Yiran was referring to as rat hole!
Normally, people could not break through this ce, and his underground passages and cers had been built by ten designers put together. Further changes had been added by him after the construction, in case they leaked the secret designs.
As for theyout of underground passage, only he knew about it and there was no paper version stored anywhere. He had remembered all the paths inside his head and burnt every copy of the design.
But Jing Yiran came in here so easily!
It impacted Tang Shunians confidence tremendously!
He had thought that Jing Yichen was not as legendary as the rumor proimed, making him sound like a god! Jing Yichen was admired because of the power of Family Jing, and nothing else.
He almost lost his life eleven years ago, and was left with unbearableplications. When he was caught eleven yearster, he still looked as if he were incapable of striking back.
Since yesterday, Tang Shunian had been feeling quite proud inwardly.
Jing Yichen had been famous in both legal and illegal worlds across the entire world. A City belonged to the Jing Family, and everyone from B City had heard of Jing Yichen too. He was very proud to have captured this celebrity here along with his wife and his father.
But it turned out to be such a bummer.
Jing Yichen had been prepared for this day toe and had known of this underground kingdom which he spent so much time and energy upon.
Otherwise his men could not have helped Jing Yiran to enter this confidential ce.
And what on earth was that...
So-called code breaker?!
Tang Shunian had never heard of this thing, because his security system was built with the most advanced fingerprint system. Without his fingers, no one was able to enter this ce!
Jing Yiran kept babbling so as to torment Tang Shunians mind. Honestly, Jing Yichen has spent a great deal of energy just to deal with a rat like you. I have never seen him dealing with me with so much devotion. I have an IQ of 160! I believe that your mental capacity is half of mine. Still he devoted so much resources towards you. Anyways, there is only one ce that is interesting in this rat hole, this pce. The rest of the ce is avable to everyone who has money. Ah, how stupid you must be! Your project has turned out to be total dud!
Even Jing Yichen could not win a talkingpetition with Jing Yiran!
Tang Shunians heart had been shattered by his words, and he became anxious.
The bombing sound arose close by, making Tang Shunian feel a chill run through his entire body.
Mr.Tang, take a seat, I am here, so these people wont toss a bomb at this ce. You are safe for a short time. Better drink some wine in case you get none when you are down in hell!
Tang Shunians eyes turned red. He bellowed. Jing Yiran, dont get too happy. Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen are still at my mercy. If you dont stop the bombing, I will activate the bombs in that dungeon and they will be in hell instead of me!
He had thought that his bargaining chip would make Jing Yiran shut up, but he started tough loudly and took in a big sip of the wine.
Confused, Tang Shunian snapped. What are youughing at?!
I amughing at you for not being aware of which side I am on. Jing Yiran had a bright smile on his face as he said, Dont you know that they are my worst enemies? I wish that they were dead soon, because when they are dead, I will be able to inherit everything. My dad and brother have made so much money that I only need to burn it every single day and live the rest of my life happily.
Tang Shunian got very confused by his attitude, and he stuttered. What.... do you mean?!
See? You are just a dimwit! Jing Yiran shook his head pretending as if he were disappointed. I mean, you can go ahead and bomb them, so I dont have to deal with them myself!
Tang Shunian said with disbelief, You want them to die?!
No, no, you want them to die! I am not linked to it in any way. When my nephew grows up, I can tell him without any guilt that it was you, the bastard, Tang Shunian who killed his father, mother and grandpa. I am totally out of it!
Tang Shunian got really furious by Jing Yirans pretentious words. Jing Yiran and Jing Yichen were so different from each other.
Jing Yichen was silent, and cold. He never bothered to y tricks on anyone.
Jing Yiran, however, was different from him. He was extremely talkative. He kept babbling as if he had not talked for ages. It was also impossible to tell which part of his sentence was real!
Tang Shunian waspletely baffled by what Jing Yiran said. Instead of caring whether he truly wanted Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen to die or he was just ying around with him at this moment, he asked him something else. What are you doing here, anyway? Are you here to drink wine when your men are setting up bombs outside?
Hearing his words, Jing Yiran put down the goblet and said, Of course not, I dont like drinking in this noisy rat hole. So painful!
Then he stretched out his index finger and pointed at the small figure on the camera and said with a conceited and proud voice, The most capable woman in that room is mine! I am here to keep her safe.
Tang Shunian followed the direction of Jing Yirans finger and took a look at the camera.
Chapter 612 - Tang Shunian Collapses
Chapter 612: Tang Shunian Copses
On the camera, Lu was smacking on his mens back. All of them spat out a mouthful of blood and fell upon the ground.
She repeated her move, and none of them were alive after one single attack.
She was capable of killing hundreds of people whilst protecting Shangguan Ning simultaneously. Neither she nor Shangguan Ning were injured till now.
Tang Shunian realised that he had spent so much money upon keeping these men well fed so that they could be good fighters, but they turned out to be worse than a group of pigs!
But it did not matter if these men were alive or not at the moment. Trapped by Jing Yiran in this ce, he first needed to find a way to escape. As long as he stayed alive, he would always get the opportunity ofing back someday.
Tang Shunian did not care how Jing Yiran fell for such a violent weirdo, so he said quickly, Can you make sure that I leave safe and sound if I bring her out of that ce?
His men were all there in that cer with Jing Yichen, and there was a river between them. His men often travelled through the underground passage but that must have been bombed by now. So his men could not make it back and even if they did, they would die here.
Jing Yiran had taken control of this ce, and as soon as he went out of this door, he would be bombed to ashes!
But it seemed that Jing Yiran did not care about Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichens death, only Lus.
Then it was easy to persuade him with that weakness. He just feared that Jing Yiran would fight him dirty. Jing Yiran was not an upright man like Jing Yichen. He had many terrible tricks up his sleeve.
I can make sure that your woman is brought out of there safe and sound, but in return, you must release me first. When I am truly safe, I will bring your woman out of there!
Tang Shunian had always been a cautious person. He disliked it when he was under someone elses control.
Jing Yiran was suffering from a headache from the bombing sound outside the room, and he needed to finish this bastard and get out of here as soon as possible.
But he could not behave carelessly, in case Tang Shunian activated the bomb at Jing Yichens ce. All of them would die.
He was not here just for Lu.
Lu could keep herself safe and did not need his help.
He was here to rescue Jing Yichen.
Jing Yiran felt very ufortable when he thought that he was here to aid Jing Yichen!
They had been each others worst enemies since childhood and were never on good terms. He was very surprised that Jing Yichen had entrusted him with such a big task!
Apart from the slight difort, Jing Yiran felt kind of proud, too.
See? Jing Yichen might be conceited and wild, but now he needed his help. That basically meant that he was capable as well.
The men outside the cer were all Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichens men and were being directed by him at the moment. It made Jing Yiran feel that he had be a king.
That sense of power made him rather d and he was in a fairly good mood.
That was why he had been smiling at Tang Shunian all this while.
Jing Yiran was quite confident about finishing Tang Shunian off.
Startingst week, he had started to coborate with Jing Yichen to carry out intensive research about Tang Shunian. Through that, Jing Yichen not only got to know about this underground kingdom but also managed to send a mole into Tang Shunians team, who had drawn a concise path of this ce.
Due to the limited time, Jing Yichens man was not able to figure out everything, and that was why todays events did not go smoothly.
Jing Yichen even got someone to make a code breaker based on the doors here. But again, due to limited time, only a rough one was made, but it was enough for Tang Shunians doors.
With victory around the corner, Jing Yiran did not care about Tang Shunians words. He leaned against the sofa and stared at Tang Shunian with his beautiful pair of eyes. It is not going to work if I let you leave first. What if my woman is trapped inside once you go away? What is more, who knows whether or not you will keep your word? I will be devastated if you are safe and still ignite the bomb inside!
You dont need to worry about that. I can make a promise. I wont touch your woman, because her existence does not affect me. I only need Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen to die!
Oh? That doesnt work.
Hands blocking his ears, Jing Yiran tried to stop himself from hearing that loud booming sound.
Tang Shunian was also feeling a buzzing sound in his ears due to the bombs. His cer might not get destroyed, but the steel made the outside noises be louder, and the whole room was feeling strong vibrations now.
When he heard Jing Yiran denying his proposal, he got increasingly uneasy.
Why not?!
You may not be aware of something. My woman has another name apart from Lu!
Jing Yiran sat with his legs crossed and watched Tang Shunian who was at the verge of bursting into anger. He had not tormented someone in this way in a very long time!
Tormenting psychologically was much worse than physical tormenting. What was more, Tang Shunian did not seem to be strong enough to take it.
Tang Shunian almost went mental because of Jing Yirans stupid conversation.
He truly wanted to leave from here as soon as possible, and was not at all interested in hearing Jing Yirans story behind his womans name!
Ignoring his pain, Jing Yiran spoke in a dragging tone. It is a long story! The story dates back to the time when I was injured by Jing Yichen. This woman came to visit me deep at night. I had always been suspecting her identity, but I never expected that she was that famous...
Tang Shunian felt like he was going to have a breakdown. If Jing Yiran was going to tell him the story at this pace, he would have to listen to him for a thousand hours.
By that time, he would be dead because of the loud banging noises.
Tang Shunian bellowed furiously. I dont want to hear what her name is. I just want you to tell me why you wont release me when I am promising to release your woman.
Chapter 613 - Deadlock
Chapter 613: Deadlock
Oh man, why are you so impatient?!
Jing Yiran got very unhappy when his beautiful memories were interrupted.
He sat up straight and said with displeasure, I was going to tell you my womans powerful identity. How would you understand the rtionship without knowing her name? And how would you know why I cant let you go now.
Tang Shunian had not been toyed with by someone in a very long time. When he was a wealthy man, no one dared to irritate him. Nobody was like Jing Yiran who kept spouting nonsense.
The me inside his body had turned into a volcano that was going to burst any minute now.
Jing Yiran seemed to sense that he was reaching his limit, so he stood up with a smile, came to Tang Shunian and patted on his shoulders. He said in a consoling tone, What are you getting angry for, when my dad, brother, sister-inw and woman are trapped down there?
Tang Shunian did not get angry any more when he was patted on the shoulder. Instead, he copsed onto the ground and started to puke.
Dumfounded, Jing Yiran watched Tang Shunian going through cramps and looked at his own hand as he mumbled. Have I developed a strong strike of my own that he started to puke because of it? Lu... should be the one who can do it?
When Tang Shunian heard what Jing Yiran said, he got so furious that he wanted to spit out blood. But he took a step back when he saw that Jing Yiran was going to touch him again.
Trying hard to control his nausea he screamed. Dont touch me! I hate to be touched! Stay away!
Jing Yiran stopped walking towards him and came to a realization. Oh I see, you cant be touched either! You have the same problem as Jing Yichen. But it seems that you are in a worse condition than my brother. He gets furious when his clothes are touched, but he doesnt puke until his skin is touched.
Tang Shunian stared at Jing Yiran with a fierce look. Disgusted, he really wanted to take a shower now that his shoulder had been touched by Jing Yiran.
Of course he was in a worse condition than Jing Yichen!
Jing Yichen had only been touched by men rather than having slept with them. He was lucky enough to have run away before that.
He had worse luck than Jing Yichen in every way!
He had been seriously tormented by those old women and men. They used to humiliate and insult him, ying with him like a toy for days in a row.
That was something that he would never forget in his whole life. He hated those people!
Although they had already been killed by him, he could not get the memories off his mind.
As time went by, his problem of not being touched got worse, and he would react strongly even when his clothes were touched by someone else.
Tang Shunian showcased apletely different look from what he was like a minute ago. Now, he looked like a stray dog, curled up on the ground, trembling.
Jing Yiran had never known how to be kind. He enjoyed making situations worse, so he did not show anypassion towards Tang Shunian.
He walked up, and felt Tang Shunians face and then retreated.
Tang Shunian felt a chill crawl on his skin. He got disgusted so badly when his face was touched by Jing Yirans hand, that he started to puke again. A strong wave of pain and tremors kept attacking his body.
Seeing Tang Shunian turning pale, Jing Yiran patted his own chest with confidence. Oh my god, good that I took a step back quickly, or you would have vomited all over me. You do have the same problem as Jing Yichen. When I touched him by ident long ago, he puked terribly too. But I got punched badly by him in return. He doesnt react so much when he has his clothes on, but you seem to be an extreme case. Can I touch you again?
Tang Shunian had almost puked out everything from his stomach
After hearing what Jing Yiran said, he stopped heaving, and showed a twisted face. He said fiercely, Jing Yiran, if you dare to touch me again, I will kill your woman immediately.
He grabbed a micro remote and pressed a small orange button.
Something in the cer broke, and Jing Yichen, Shangguan Ning and Lu as well as Tang Shunians newly arrived men, all fell on the ground.
Jing Yirans face sank when he saw Tang Shunian pressing the button.
Tang Shunian, are you trying to get yourself killed?! Neither my woman nor Jing Yichen nor his wife should die. If any of them gets hurt, you will be chopped to death as well.
Jing Yiran, you finally admit that they all matter to you. What you said a minute ago was just a bag of wind. Me dying with them? Bah, they will die with me! If I die, none of you will survive. There are tons of bombs down there and I ignited only 1/10th of them. Look at them, they are almost dead.
Tang Shunian was in an even worse mood than him. He hated it most when people touched him and Jing Yiran had dared to feel his face! He was seeking his death.
Jing Yiran looked at the camera and saw that Jing Yichen and the others got up from the ground slowly, looking fine. So he felt a bit less burdened.
Lu got up first, and she was fine. Obviously, the bomb did not wound her.
But Jing Yiran was furious!
He would not be sad if Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning were injured, but God help Tang Shunian if Lu got hurt!
Lu might be strong and recover fast, and thats why she was always used as a killing machine. But she was a human as well. She would feel pain and get tired as well.
Bastard! He must die for being so mean!
Chapter 614 - My Girl, My Pride
Chapter 614: My Girl, My Pride
Their dislike for each other was out in the open now, and they wished that the other party would die immediately.
But neither of them was able to do anything about it. One had the control of the bombs whilst the other was destroying everything down here because of which the underground kingdom would be ruined soon.
But Tang Shunian still persisted. He refused to let go. He did not believe that Jing Yiran would let him die without taking anyone elses life into consideration.
He had misjudged the situation today. He had not expected that Jing Yichen would be prepared to this extent. He had broken through the frontline and prated deep into this ce!
And his men had not told him about Jing Yiraning back to life. To top it, he was feeling disgusted after being touched by this annoying man.
Today had been such a failure!
He had been unable to do anything to Jing Yichen. He had thought that his n was perfect whilst, it turned out to be full of loopholes. Jing Yichen had already seen through him and his n.
Todays goal was not to kill Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen anymore, but to keep himself alive.
Jing Yiran was indeed a pest. He had to make a proper n about what to do so as to get rid of him.
Tang Shunian sat up on the ground with a pale face, trying to stay away from Jing Yiran while thinking of a way to get himself out of this ce.
Jing Yiran stared at the remote control in Tang Shunians hands for a long time and then smiled and said sinisterly, Why do you get such a strong reaction? I didnt know that you couldnt be touched by people. If I had known that you are this weak, I would not have touched your face. I dont like men, I like women!
However, Tang Shunian was already very frightened. He had been with men before, and he knew that some people might not be born to like men. But they wouldnt mind trying something new by ying with men for fun.
Jing Yiran was the type who seemed to be interested in trying something new!
Tang Shunian never wanted to go through that kind of humiliation again in his life and hence wanted to stay away from this guy.
Jing Yiran talked in such a sinister way as if he were going up to rip off his clothes any minute. His weird smile startled Tang Shunian and he retreated to the corner. He shouted loudly, Jing Yiran, stay away from me! Otherwise I will bury them all.
Seeing Tang Shunians scared look, Jing Yiran rolled his eyes.
Maniac! Who would ever want to taste you? I am interested in women to start with, and you look bad. Also, you are so old. I want to stay away from you as far as possible because of your vomit, as well. I would never touch you even if I am given 100 million yuan!
Tang Shunian was a good-looking man. Butpared to Jing Yiran, he was nothing.
There were very few people in the world who could be better looking than Jing Yiran.
Tang Shunian, in Jing Yirans eyes, was somehow hideous.
He had touched Tang Shunian just because he wanted to irritate him. Of course, he was not interested in him!
In order to convince Tang Shunian, Jing Yiran stayed away from him as far as possible in case he got irritated and pressed another button. If Jing Yichen was bombed to death, Jing Zhongxiu would not protect Lu any more.
Tang Shunian felt a bit assured when Jing Yiran stayed away from him.
He would normally take off his clothes immediately to take a shower when he puked, but now, he did not dare take them off in case Jing Yiran wanted to do something to him. Hey curled up in a corner, with stiff limbs.
Tang Shunian, the current mayor of B City, the dominator of the underground world, no longer looked like a gentleman.
He wanted to get away from this ce desperately, and kill Jing Yiran when he became capable again!
But, for now, he truly needed to pull himself up and continue negotiating with Jing Yiran, otherwise if Jing Yichen and Lu killed all of his men and left the cer, he would lose the remaining advantage, as well.
Jing Yiran, stop the bombing now! I need to get out!
Sure, I want to get out too. This is not a ce for people to stay. There is an earthquake waiting to ur and I really cant stand your vomit!
Then get them to stop now. Get them to leave. I need to be safe, or I will bomb this entire ce.
Tang Shunian stood up and started to walk outside with a pale face.
He held the remote control tightly. If Jing Yiran tried to trick him, he would press the button so that Jing Yichen and everyone else would die.
As for Shangguan Ning, he did not care about her any more. He was on the verge of death. And could not care about this woman who had just piqued his interest.
Of course, if he was able to survive today, Shangguan Ning would not have to die, either. By that time, he woulde up with some way to get this woman back in his hand!
Jing Yiran did not know that Tang Shunian was thinking about running away whilst thinking about Shangguan Ning at the same time. But he did feel that Tang Shunian looked calctive and annoying, so he snapped. Okay, bomb us all then! If my woman is dead, you will die too. Oh, I have still not told you what my womans other name is, right? Do you want to hear it? You would be very surprised.
Tang Shunian felt like pulling his hair out when Jing Yiran mentioned this topic again.
Werent the men from Family Jing always silent? Why was Jing Yiran so talkative, then?
When Jing Yiran gets married in the future, he would be very proud of his wife!
He was forcing him to listen to Lus story even under such circumstances. Tang Shunian was not interested even if she was the reincarnation of the God of Heaven. She had nothing to do with him.
He would not need to bother that weirdo because he did not hold any grudge against Lu. He only wanted Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen to die.
Oh, of course, now Jing Yiran should be added to that list, too.
Anyone who ever touched him must die.
But as of now, he had to bend down to him.
Tang Shunian said slowly, Tell me then, what is your womans real identity?
Chapter 615 - My Woman Has a Prestigious Name
Chapter 615: My Woman Has a Prestigious Name
Hearing that Tang Shunian was willing to hear the story, Jing Yiran suddenly got very pleased.
Excellent, now you are behaving well. He praised Tang Shunian as if they were close brothers. He no longer looked that intimidating as he was a minute ago.
He poured himself a cup of red wine, elegantly, sat down on the sofa with legs crossed and settled in as if he were going to tell a long story. Tang Shunian got frightened, and instantly said, Who on earth is your woman? Tell me but keep it short.
Jing Yiran red at him and said, Mr. Tang, why are you being so impatient? My story is very long and it wont be interesting unless I tell you theplete version. It would not sound that surprising if you just hear the result.
Tang Shunian saw what was happening in the cer from the camera. His dumb men were reducing in numbers and Jing Yichen was taking a rest on the floor. Jing Yirans woman had turned out to be even crueler and quicker than Jing Yichen in every way. She was like a killing machine who did not get tired. Thousands of men had turned up in the cer, yet she did not slow down.
He was really in a hurry to run away now!
But Jing Yiran was being annoying and did not ept his terms. He could not let the cer burn. If Jing Yichen and others died, he would be dead too!
Jing Yichen must be doing this on purpose! He must have sent Jing Yiran here deliberately to punish and to torment him.
Sweating in nervousness, Tang Shunian really wanted to kill someone now.
Jing Yiran, dont think that I am scared of you. Get out of here if you dont want to tell me who she is! I dont have time to waste, and if you dont do as I say, I will ignite the bomb so they would be seriously injured even if they dont die.
Jing Yiran looked at him with a good-natured smile, took a sip of red wine and said, Dont get mad, alright. I will tell you who my woman is. She keeps a low-profile, totally different from her shining name. If she had not exposed herself in front of me before, I would never have thought that she is the scary woman called Angel!
Tang Shunian frowned slightly, Angel?
This name sounded so familiar. He had heard of this name before, but could recall it at the moment. There were too many girls called Angel. Even one of his old staff was called Angel.
No, hang on!
Angel?!
Tang Shunian suddenly recalled who she was.
There might be many girls called Angel, but there was only one known to him who was this scary.
She was the No. 2 killer in the world, the only woman in the top 10 killers!
Tang Shunian shivered.
It was impossible!
All the killers belonged to some or the other association, and apart from killing on the behalf of their own group, they would never kill for anyone else.
All killers worked for their bosses, restrained and protected by their associations. They could not ept private jobs on their own.
Angel was ranked high and was extremely capable. She had never failed a mission after she became famous. Many people feared her, and as long as she was paid enough, she would definitelyplete the mission!
During the past two years, she had not undertaken many missions. But the demand for her was always there due to her high ranking. She had even managed to kill a president of a country. It had been one of the most difficult missions which she had ever undertaken.
She had managed to keep her rank intact on the list, and the third killer had not been able to exceed her though he had killed so many in the past two years.
It was said that she could have reached the top, but the rank was not based only upon a persons ability, but also upon how cruel the killer could get. The first person was called God of Death, who was extremely devoted to killing, exceeding Angel on that parameter.
Tang Shunian never met Angel before, but he had seen her picture. She looked different, but had a simr body shape.
Also, Lu was extremely capable in killing. There was no reason for him to suspect whether Jing Yirans words were true or not.
One could not imitate the capability of such a person, and Jing Yiran did not need to lie to him.
But why would Angel work for the Jing Family?
She had been keeping Shangguan Ning safe all this time and solving problems for Jing Yichen.
Since when did a killer be a bodyguard?!
Wasnt a killer supposed to kill people?
Was it Angels mission to kill these stupid men today?
Tang Shunian could not understand why Angel was able to stay away from the killers camp and live at the Tang Family as Lu. It was against the rules!
He felt cold sweat trickling down his body.
Jing Yichen had such a top level killer next to him!!
And this killer was Jing Yirans woman?
So he should thank God to be still alive till this hour?
A killer like Angel did not need much information about the target. Apart from the killers, the killers camps tended to have strongmunication channels, and they were able to get hold of all kinds of information. It was not a big deal for them to find a person based on that.
If Angel had her eyes upon him, he would have no chance to be alive!
Seeing Tang Shunians face turning from pale to red and red to pale again, Jing Yiran was very pleased by the fright in his eyes.
His woman indeed had a prestigious name!
But Jing Yiran was still concerned about Lu. He was a dominating man and did not want his woman to be too capable. Nor did he want her to work hard whilst he slept at home.
He was proud of Lu, but he always regarded her as his little woman.
He did not want to hide behind her back making her take difficult missions.
Alright then, now you know who my woman is. It is upto you to decide whether to strangle yourself now, or die tomorrow if you manage to get away today!
Chapter 616 - Runaway
Chapter 616: Runaway
Tang Shunian got so furious that he bellowed fiercely. Jing Yiran, are you toying with me?!
Kill himself? Was he stupid?
Even if that girl called Angel or Lu was capable, he still had control over her life!
If tons of bombs were ignited at the same time, Angel, together with the other heroes would die!
I am doing this for you! Jing Yiran continued speaking in a mild voice, My woman normally does not kill people, but if she decides to kill someone, that person will have nowhere to run. I am worried that she would have to spare some energy in looking for you, instead of resting at home. Why dont you die a quick death today? It would definitely be a miserable er on.
Bullshit!
What on earth was he talking about?
It is not finalised yet which of us will die today. I will bomb them all if you do not release me now. Do you think that you will be able to run away from this ce in time? To tell you the truth, this room is installed with bombs and if it were not for me being present here, you would not have been able to sit and drink wine sofortably right now.
Tang Shunian started to move inch by inch towards the door and tried to think of a way to escape when he reached the nearest exit.
He remembered all the passages, and there was more than one passage leading outside. He did not think that Jing Yichens men had managed to bomb every single one of them.
Jing Yiran smiled as he spoke with his white teeth exposed, Mr. Tang, where are you going? Do you know how many people are guarding outside this door? If I let you go today, I will be yed alive by Jing Yichen.
He swirled the red liquid in the goblet, leisurely. Dressed in the red suit made him look handsome and rxed, totally different from the messy Tang Shunian who was anxious and annoyed.
Oh, yes, I was interrupted by you when I was telling you my girls story. I have to add here that if I cant meet Jing Yichens requirement for this mission, my woman will lose the protection of the Jing Family. I will be very, very concerned if she is not under their protection. So, I have to obey Jing Yichens request to take you to him alive, so that my mission can bepleted.
There was no difference between death and being taken to Jing Yichen!
Jing Yichen hated him deeply and was going to torment him in the worst possible way.
Tang Shunian did not wait for him to say anything more. He put his finger upon the fingerprint sensor and the sealed metal door opened gradually. Immediately, he was exposed in front of a group of people.
Outside the door there were at least a dozen people standing, each of whom had a gun in their hands, aimed at his head and heart. Since he failed to kill Jing Yichen with one bullet, Jing Yichen had ordered his men to bring at least two guns, one for head and the other for heart. No need to save the bullets!
Frozen, Tang Shunian did not dare to move even an inch.
Luckily, everyone seemed to be worried about the remote control in his hand, so no one started shooting yet.
Dust was flying outside the door, and rocks kept falling down due to the bombs going off.
The sound almost deafened Tang Shunian!
It took him a few seconds to recover. Then he took a step back slowly, and shut the door quickly.
Tang Shunian turned around, and looked at Jing Yiran who was sitting there as if he were at his own home. He said with a serious look, Jing Yiran, if you release me now, I will not give any trouble to the Jing Family anymore and I will release your woman too. How does that sound?
Why havent you understood anything? Have I told you all of this in vain? My woman is one of the top 2 killers. Even if you leave today, you wont survive tomorrow. Stop thinking so much! You have got no real ability apart from digging rat holes. Even if my woman doesnt kill you, it would be a piece of cake for Jing Yichen to destroy you. He was not sure about your identity earlier. Only recently, I received the information from Tang Yun and confirmed your real name to be Tang. That was why you managed to stay alive for so many years, otherwise you would have been dead long ago.
Only now did Tang Shunian realize how on earth had he exposed himself!
He had thought that Tang Yun leaked his identity because of her passion towards Jing Yichen, instead Jing Yiran turned out to be the reason for this mess.
Tang Yun was such a bitch! She had leaked such important information to Jing Yiran.
He had hidden himself from the world for so many years and let the substitute handle the underground forces, run the casinos and the weapon business whilst he changed his identity and lived like a perfect man, revealing nothing.
No wonder Jing Yichen could not find him before, whilst in the past month, he destroyed so many of his bases. Even his substitute was killed.
These brothers used to be each others worst enemies, but now they were co-workers? Could it be because Jing Yiran was seeking refuge for his woman?
Tang Shunian was more intelligent than ordinary people and quickly figured out the key reason.
Jing Yiran was right. If Angelid her eyes upon him, he would not be able to stay alive in future. But he could not give in so easily!
What if he became the only person who managed to avoid being killed by Angel?
In the camera, his men were decreasing tremendously and he could not wait any longer.
Without hesitation, Tang Shunian pressed a blue button on his remote and arge amount of white mist burst out through the ceiling.
The mist was not only able to reduce visibility but was also full of poison. It made a persons nerves numb and breathing it for even a minute would kill people.
He had not wanted to use it before, because he was worried that he would be choked.
But Tang Shunian had no other choice left now!
He held his breath, and ran quickly to a corner. He pressed his whole palm upon the wall and waited impatiently.
With a beep sound, a gentle womans voice could be heard. Verified, door opened, bomb activation in sixty minutes. Please confirm.
Jing Yiran might look dandy on the surface, but he was very nervous inside. He had been paying attention to Tang Shunians hands all the time because of the remote control. He was worried that Tang Shunian would kill them all, including himself.
So the moment Tang Shunian pressed the button on the remote control, Jing Yiran stood up as well.
Except that he had not been expecting the poisonous gas which filled up the room!
Chapter 617 - Wounded
Chapter 617: Wounded
Jing Yiran had not been cultivated by Jing Zhongxiu as the heir of the Jing Family, but he received as much education as he should. Mo Lan had hired many teachers to give him knowledge about different fields, and although he had never attended any formal lessons, he went through enough experiences after he grew up. He was fairly familiar with poisonous gases.
He instantly understood that something was wrong with just one inhale, and then he heard Tang Shunians sound of running away.
Within a few seconds, the entire room was thronged with a white gas, and nothing could be seen clearly.
Jing Yiran rushed to the door, following the path as he remembered it. He swiped the code breaker and opened the door.
In the meanwhile, a gentle womans voice arose in the room.
Everyone outside the door heard the line Your room will be bombed automatically, please confirm.
Two voices shouted loudly and simultaneously.
Confirm!
Shoot!
After Tang Shunian shouted confirm, he slipped through the security gate that wasrge enough to hold only one person. Immediately, the bullets from outside the door fell on him like raindrops!
The best snipers did not need to see the target to tell the location, only the sound would be enough.
But the bullets did not hit urately, because it was impossible to tell in which posture the target was standing at the moment.
Standing outside the door, Jing Yiran could see nothing due to the white gas filling the room. Tang Shunians scream could be heard for a moment before everything was silent.
When his men cleared the poisonous gas out, Tang Shunian was nowhere to be found.
Jing Yiran became furious and barked. Search for him! He is wounded and cant have gone far. Bomb all the passages, and find out which direction he is running in.
...
In the cer which was dimly lit, Shangguan Ning held Jing Yichen in her arms as tears trickled down her cheeks.
Yichen, let me see how badly you are injured. Let me bandage you up.
Thats what she said, but she did not have anything to dress his wounds with.
Her clothes,pared to Jing Yichen, had been clean. But now, they were blood stained too. There must be bacteria on them and she did not dare use them.
Since it was summer time, she only had a t-shirt on her and no otheryer.
Jing Yichen was covered with blood. His handsome face was filthy and his clothes were soaked with all kinds of things.
Shangguan Ning had never seen Jing Yichen in such a mess and so weak.
He seemed to have used up thest bit of his strength, and was now breathing feebly, lying in her arms.
Standing around them, firmly, Lu kicked away everyone who came near them. She was like a robot, tireless and expressionless.
Tiger had passed out finally. He had been seriously influenced by the drug and wanted to attack Jing Yichen, who punched him away and pushed him under the bodies of dead men.
Jing Yichen had used this method before. Although it felt terrible to be buried under these bodies, it was the best way to dodge these crazy men.
Jing Yichen could hear Shangguan Nings words, and could feel her warmth. But he had be totally exhausted and the strong drug in the air had affected him badly.
He felt assured when Shangguan Ning and Lu were both here.
As long as Lu was here, the number of the enemies was not a problem. Even if she was threatened with a gun, she would not lose.
She had broken through mankinds limitation and could act at a high speed. Those who had guns in their hands normally died before they were able to reach her.
Jing Yichen had been feeling miserable and disgusted, soaked in blood.
But lying in Shangguan Nings arms appeased him and he even ignored the terrible environment. He only cared about Shangguan Ning who was here suffering with him.
Shangguan Nings heart ached when she failed to receive Jing Yichens response. If she had not felt his heartbeat and breath, she would have be agitated.
She wiped Jing Yichens face with a corner of her top and started to examine the wounds on his body.
Shangguan Ning turned pale when she saw him properly.
Jing Yichen was covered with wounds of different sizes, some shallow, some deep, the deepest one exposed his bones!
He had continued fighting with those crazy people when he was so badly injured.
Shangguan Ning really wished that she could turn into a second Lu and kill the rest of the men.
She had been slightly wounded when the bomb went off in the cer a minute ago. But she did not care about her injury. She was ready to pull the trigger of her gun if anyone tried to hurt him.
Luckily, Lu was capable enough to toss away everyone who approaches them.
After resting for a while, Jing Yichen recovered a bit and opened his eyes, slowly.
Seeing Shangguan Nings worried look, he forced a smile and consoled her gently. I am fine, most of this is others blood. I just feel very exhausted after killing too many people. I need to go home and eat something good, then I will be fine.
Hearing him talk, Shangguan Ning felt happy and relieved. She said, Dont talk, okay? We can leave in a minute. Of course, you will be fine!
She was not stupid enough to not realise that most of the blood on him was his own.
He told her those things just because he did not want her to be worried.
Tears had made her eyes swell up, but she was still trying to control her emotions and said in a calm voice, Dad is outside, he will be here soon. He has brought doctors with him.
Jing Yichen knew his exact condition at the moment. He might have lost blood, but he was not in any fatal danger.
He was not worried about himself or Lu. He was just worried that Jing Yiran might not be able to catch Tang Shunian, since he was too tricky a man to be trapped.
Tang Shunian was sinister, and even dared toy his eyes upon Shangguan Ning. He could not be allowed to live any more!
Chapter 618 - Reunion
Chapter 618: Reunion
Jing Yiran failed to find Tang Shunian in the end.
Because the passage through which he escaped led to the middle of the river.
That river had been expanded and deepened by Tang Shunian and Jing Yiran could not find any trace of where he was headed. He felt that there must have been some other passage leading to somewhere else through the river, and Tang Shunian must have taken that way.
He might have cursed at Tang Shunian for being a rathole maker, but when Jing Yiran saw thisplicated underground kingdom, he got a bit shocked.
Tang Shunian must have spent all of his energy and money upon building this underground world.
He had really be an expert in this aspect. Jing Yichen might have grasped some bit of it but he had not been able to understand everything yet.
Jing Yiran got distressed because he had nned to kill Tang Shunian in order to get Jing Yichen to admire him.
But the guy managed to escape.
Out of anger, he ruined the underground worldpletely and killed all the remaining men of Tang Shunian. They were not good people anyway, just some fighters who would bring harm to society.
Jing Zhongxiu had also run into problems.
They had just entered the spiral cer when they came across Tang Shunians men who were ordered toe inter. They came in through another entry and all of them had guns with them.
If it had not been for the excellent equipment which Jing Zhongxius men had with them and the amazing snipers, the enemies would have killed them.
The darkness of the cer provided them with the perfect cover and increased theirbat time.
Tang Shunians men could afford to dy the battle, because they were not affected by the drugs. They feared death, and didnt dare to forge ahead.
But Jing Zhongxiu could not linger around here any longer.
He was worried about his son and daughter-inw. Now, he knew clearly what Jing Yichen had gone through eleven years ago. He did not want to waste a single more second to let his son experience that inhuman torment again.
Forging ahead would definitely need sacrificing some men but he had to do that.
Luckily, his snipers were all professional experts, and the enemies dropped dead once they made a move. As they moved ahead, the enemies kept increasing in numbers but after half of the enemies died, the rest of them ran away in fear.
Shangguan Ning shouted loudly when she saw Jing Zhongxiu appear in front of her. Dad, we are here, Yichen is wounded, bring the doctors!
Jing Zhongxiu did have two doctors with him when he entered the ce, but both of them lost their lives in the bombing.
His men and Lu killed the remaining men and reached Shangguan Ning. Seeing Jing Yichen covered with blood, he said without preamble, Ning, I will carry him out.
Jing Yichen did not like being touched, but he would not react much when his closest family was touching him.
Jing Zhongxiu for example, was Jing Yichens father and their rtionship did not make Jing Yichen puke even when they had been on the worst terms.
But he was not feeling that well right now.
Shangguan Ning was the only person who did not make Jing Yichen ufortable when she touched him. Same went for his precious son, Jing Rui.
Without hesitation, Shangguan Ning helped Jing Yichen stand up and put him over Jing Zhongxius back, so that Jing Zhongxiu could carry him out.
She did not think that it was weird to let Jing Zhongxiu carry Jing Yichen, and she did not think that Jing Zhongxiu at his age would not be able to carry Jing Yichen, either. Jing Zhongxiu was tall, strong and healthy.
Jing Yichen, however, did not want to be carried by his father. He said calmly, It is alright, I can walk myself.
He was in his 30s and was a father, himself. How could he let his aged father carry him?!
Jing Zhongxiu had known that Jing Yichen would not agree to be carried, so instead of trying to persuade him, he looked at Shangguan Ning, waiting for her to say something.
Shangguan Ning was concerned and worried about Jing Yichen even more than he was. His son had indeed picked a good wife. She loved him deeply and even went into the cer without hesitation and confronted Tang Shunian despite all the risk.
Fortunately she was fine, otherwise Jing Yichen would have never forgiven him.
Shangguan Ning did not notice Jing Zhongxius eyes on her. She was only concerned about Jing Yichen at the moment.
Yichen, you are wounded, and cant walk by yourself. It is a deep cer and it is spinning as well. You wont make it far. Let dad carry you. I can carry you if you dont think it is proper for him. I drank some of Lus blood and I am strong right now.
Shangguan Ning knew that he did not like being touched and was very stubborn. Also, he probably would lose face if he had to be carried by Jing Zhongxiu.
But no one else could do this work. Jing Yichen did not have much reaction towards Jing Zhongxius touch but his reaction was strong towards others.
When Jing Yichen heard Shangguan Nings words, he tried his best to stand straight.
How would Shangguan Ning be able to carry him?
That was never going to happen.
Neither of the options were feasible.
Jing Yichen had a strong willpower. His wounds hurt and his blood was dripping, but these were small thingspared to what he had experienced eleven years ago. He felt that he would be able to ovee the present situation.
More importantly, he heard that Shangguan Ning had just consumed Lus blood?!
Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen frowned and looked at Shangguan Ning and said at the same time, How much did you drink?
Shangguan Ning was not sure about why they were so nervous, so she answered hesitantly, Just a little...
She was not sure either about how much she had drunk, because Lu had pinched at her chin and poured it in.
But she had a feeling that she did not have too much of it.
Lus calm voice arose from behind. I forced her and she did drink some. There will be someplications, not now butter. She will experience pain in her bones.
Chapter 619 - The Virus
Chapter 619: The Virus
Jing Yichen frowned even deeper when he heard the words.
Lus blood was full of virus and poison. Ordinary people might have enhanced physical functions after drinking it, but theplications would be tremendous as well.
In the following week, Shangguan Ning was definitely going to feel soreness and pain, because the virus had invaded her body and forced the transformation of her cells. Normally, those transformed cells would not live for long and die at a high speed.
When the old cells died and before the new cells were divided, the pain would be the maximum.
Also, the more blood one drank, the more serious the pain would be and the longer it wouldst too.
Luckily, the virus did not exist inside someone elses body for too long, because a mans physical immune system would be able to fight against the virus, driving it out. Lus body had been transformed by a virus since she was young. Her genes were mutated because of her parents forced injection of the virus into her. Now, her body was used to the virus instead of rejecting it, because of which her immune system was different from the rest.
Shangguan Ning, on the other hand, always had a strong immune system against viruses.
Lu was only worried about the pain. Jing Yichen, however, had other concerns. Lus virus was so powerful that it could transform mankinds genes. But this kind of evolution had a huge cost C infertility.
Lu turned 26 this year but her periods during these years had never been regr.
Mu Wensheng had carried out a careful examination on Lu and the conclusion he came up with, was that the virus had promoted her physical evolution. Her cells were hundred times more active than those of ordinary people. That made it possible for her to survive in abative and challenging environment. Obviously, when a woman experiences a period each month, she tends to be weak, and pregnancy also affects thebative forces, hence leading to infertility.
Lu had never been concerned about fertility. She had a cold temperament and was not much into this kind of thing.
Jing Yichen, however, was concerned about it. He wanted Shangguan Ning to give birth to a daughter for him.
What was more, the virus inside Shangguan Ning would definitely be gone within a couple of days, during which time, she would not be allowed to feed Jing Rui.
Shangguan Ning instantly started defending the decision at the sight of Jing Yichens frown. Lu has nothing to do with it. She made me drink it because she did not want me to get affected by the drugs. I did not have too much, anyways. Dont worry!
She was not sure what theplications there would be. What she knew was that she was feeling amazing at the moment.
Her eyesight was enhanced. It was as if she was viewing the world with a magnifier. The blurry cer had be really clear and she felt strong. She was sure that she would be able to run out of the cer with Jing Yichen on her back.
But there was one thing that wasnt great. She was starving and needed to eat something.
Jing Yichen had already guessed the reason, otherwise Lu would not have made Shangguan Ning drink her blood.
He nodded and said calmly, I get it. But dont drink it any more, and no more going into dangerous ces. Never do such a thing like today, okay?
Shangguan Ning nodded obediently, thinking that no matter what danger Jing Yichen was in in the future, she would always follow him to the end.
Finally, Jing Yichen was carried out on a stretcher. He was seriously wounded and if he walked out by himself, he would definitely get injured.
He did not force himself to act strongly when they got a stretcher. From there, they went straight to the Mus Hospital by helicopter.
Mu Qing got extremely busy when he received three patients at the same time.
But Jing Yichen was most seriously wounded and Mu Qing concentrated mostly upon him. Zheng Jing was wounded in the legs, which was scary-looking but not that serious. Mu Tong, the current Director of the Mus Hospital, went to help with his operation.
Shangguan Ning was not injured, but Mu Wensheng examined her personally.
Because only Mu Wensheng was devoted to studying Lus virus and was familiar with it.
The blood test showed that Shangguan Nings normal cells were being swallowed by the virus and her blood was now full of it. The pain would arrive in a couple of hours.
After the examination, Mu Wensheng addressed Jing Zhongxiu who was more concerned about her than Jing Yichen. It is fine, she will have pain for a few days. Give her enough nutrients, because her body had been overtaken by the virus. Of course, your grandson would not be able to drink her milk. Just use the powder!
Jing Zhongxiu had known that Shangguan Ning might not be able to feed Jing Rui, so he was not surprised to hear what Mu Wensheng said.
As long as Shangguan Ning was doing fine, and the virus would leave instead of stay in, he would not be so worried.
He did not go and visit his wounded son, because he was not very worried about his condition. He would recover within a few days. But the virus in Shangguan Ning might be dangerous and he was more concerned about it.
Shangguan Ning felt very guilty when she realized that she could not feed Jing Rui.
She did not want her son to drink milk powder. She believed that mothers milk was the best!
Seeing her look so sad, Mu Wenshengughed and said, It is fine if the boy drinks milk powder for a few days. It is okay to change to something new once in a while. It is a small matter. But there is one more thing that is yet to be told. Dont start crying after listening to it!
Shangguan Ning got a bit embarrassed after hearing what Mu Wensheng said, because she had been crying when she was brought here. But that was due to Jing Yichens condition.
She asked uneasily, Just tell me what you want to say, Grandpa Mu. I will be fine.
You better not get pregnant in the next two years. You must wait until you fully recover and the cells get normal before you give birth to one more child for the Jing Family!
The virus inside Lu was that lethal?
Shangguan Ning was shocked!
Thankfully, she had already got Jing Rui and was not in a hurry to give birth to another child. She was going to focus upon raising Jing Rui at the moment. She might get distracted if two children with a small age difference were under her care.
Shangguan Ning smiled at Mu Wensheng, thinking that it was not a major thing for her. But when she thought of Lu who was badly affected by the virus, she could not help but wonder...
Grandpa Mu, can Lu ever be a mother?
Chapter 620 - Pretty Boy on the Way (Part One)
Chapter 620: Pretty Boy on the Way (Part One)
Mu Wensheng shook his head and said, At least I am not aware of the method with which she can. Maybe the institute who invented this virus has something, but the possibility is very low.
It was very easy to make a woman infertile. But making her fertile again was very difficult.
Lu could not even do it through surrogacy, because surrogacy required the mothers eggs and her eggs were no longer active.
Shangguan Ning felt a bit sad. Zhao Anans infertility had already gripped her heart and when Lu could not give birth as well, she felt very bad.
It might not seem like a big thing when a woman was young. But when she grew older and stayed childless while everyone else had children or grandchildren, that would be a very sad thing. When that time came, she would find the presence of children important.
Lu appeared at the door at that time. She had wanted to check up on Shangguan Ning, because when someone had consumed her blood sometime back, that persons cells were destroyed and had to stay in bed for half a year. She was worried that Shangguan Ning might be affected as badly.
But it seemed that Shangguan Ning should not have any major problems. She was physically fine and should recover quite soon.
Lu had never thought about children.
She said calmly, I dont want children. It is tooplicated. Also, I cant bring them up.
She was telling the truth. A virtuous woman like Shangguan Ning might think that children were important. But bringing up children required some skills and she was not interested in those kinds of things at all.
Physically, she was fine. If she could change blood every half a year, she would be able to live for long. Her face may not undergo any changes in the next twenty more years. She would still have a baby-face.
She had never thought about bing a mother, because she had a special identity and she thrived on killing. She walked on a double-edged sword every single day and her life was full of blood and ughter. A child would naturally burden her.
Shangguan Ning could not help but get startled after hearing Lus voice.
But, she didnt look sad judging from her calm look.
Lu looked like someone who did not care about these matters just like Zhao Anan.
Oh, Lu....
Shangguan Ning had no idea what more to say after she called out her name.
But Lu did not need her constion. Nor did she need herpassion. She did not say anything, but felt kind of ufortable.
Lu could not rte with Shangguan Ning on this point. She had juste to check if Shangguan Ning was fine. She nodded at Jing Zhongxiu as a way of greeting and left the hospital.
It was already rare for her, a distant woman, toe and visit Shangguan Ning. She knew that Shangguan Ning treated her nicely and regarded her as her sister. Shangguan Ning would always care deeply when the other Lu appeared.
She did not know how to express herself, but she knew who was true-hearted towards her.
Lu covered her face and returned to Jing Yirans small vi.
Jing Yiran had missed catching Tang Shunian, but was in a good mood because Lu was not wounded.
So he decided to make some food for his girl. She had arge appetite and liked food with a lot of calories. So he was going to satisfy her.
It was a different situation at home from at the hospital.
Hospitals were boring white and stank of disinfectants. Serious-looking doctors and nurses roamed around everywhere. Lu had never liked hospital because of her childhood experience, but since hospital was the ce where her life was saved, she had a touch of respect towards this ce.
But home was full offort and sweetness. The scent from the kitchen made her drool. What was more, Jing Yiran had turned on the music, making the atmosphere cheerful.
Lus demeanor softened.
Back at the hospital, she had been cold towards everyone, because she was not much of an emotional person.
Now back in this cozy little vi, she felt at ease and could not help but rx.
She was not sure if it was because of the ce or because of the person that had caused the change.
She was drawn to the kitchen by the scent of food.
I am back.
The cute baby voice arose behind Jing Yiran. He turned around and kissed on Lus forehead in a natural manner and asked indifferently, Jing Yichen is not dead, right?
Lu shook her head. No, he is fine. Nothing can affect him as long as it is not fatal.
What about Zheng Jing?
He is not dead, either. Zheng Jing is not as seriously-wounded as Jing Yichen so he should recover soon. He did not care about his own wound but asked Director Mu to check his dog instead.
She talked so much only when she was with Jing Yiran. Maybe it was because she was closest to Jing Yiran or maybe because Jing Yiran was the only person who had walked into her heart.
Oh, how unfortunate! These two men just dont die. Zheng Jing has brought up the dog as his own son. Getting the doctor to check his dog first? Honestly!
In order to avoid trouble, Jing Yiran did not go to the hospital. If he was discovered by Yang Muyans men, that n would have been ruined.
What was more, he was not interested in visiting Jing Yichen and Zheng Jing. As long as they were alive, all was fine. If Jing Yichen died though, Jing Zhongxiu would give up protecting Lu.
Lu felt that Jing Yiran looked extremely handsome today.
He was wearing a sapphire colored T-shirt and a pair of white pants. He was not wearing an apron even when he was cooking, thinking that the apron would cast a shadow on his noble, perfect air.
The simple outfit was showcasing his strong and tall body, perfectly.
Chapter 621 - Pretty Boy on the Way (Part Two)
Chapter 621: Pretty Boy on the Way (Part Two)
He looked extremely charming to even Lu, who did not know much about beauty.
People tended to like beautiful things and Lu who had a slow sense in all these things, was not an exception. She always thought that Jing Yiran was very pretty and that always attracted her and also, made her slightly obsessed.
After all, she was pulled to him in the beginning because of his good looks.
Jing Yiran barely cooked. He had no interest in it and Lu also thought that cooking was an annoying thing. But she had a huge appetite, and would need to cook a lot every time she needed to eat something. Since that involved a lot of effort, most of the time, they got food delivered to them.
But seeing Jing Yiran cook for her, Lu was d. She found that Jing Yiran was much better looking right now than at any other time.
Seeing Lus sparkling eyes on him, Jing Yiran raised his eyebrows and asked seriously. What is it? Thinking that I look great today?
Lu was a bit startled. She didnt realise that Jing Yiran was teasing her and asked in a serious voice. How did you know what I am thinking?
Jing Yiran could not help but chuckle. He stretched out his long finger and rubbed it against Lus nose tip. He used an indulgent tone, even surprising his own self and said, Your eyes have told me everything. But I have always been good-looking. Apart from Jing Yichens cold looks, I have never seen anyone better looking than me. Of course, even Jing Yichen is worse than me in terms of attraction, so it is not a strange thing that you think so.
Lu blinked her eyes when she realized something. Oh, you are joking.
Then, she frowned slightly. But what is funny about this?
Jing Yiran shook his head. Joking with Lu was not going to work. Something was missing in her head and she could not understand things which were normal for others.
Seeing Lus jade-like baby face, he let out a sigh. He was indeed burdened. It was not a good omen that theirmunication had met barriers. But he considered himself smart and social, and was sure that he would be able to teach Lu well!
Seeing him speechless, Lu could not help but say. Did I say anything wrong? I did think that you are good-looking.
Lu had never used good-looking to describe him. She always said that Jing Yiran was pretty because that word suited him the most.
But Jing Yiran had protested many times, forcing Lu to use good-looking to describe his charm.
Hearing Lus sincere words, Jing Yiran was very d.
He lowered his head and kissed on Lus forehead. Go and wait in the living room, baby, I am going to bring the good food to you.
Normally, whenever Jing Yiran said the word baby, Lu would turn obedient and docile. She could not resist when it was spoken by Jing Yiran to her.
She had no idea why she had be like this. But she felt that whenever Jing Yiran said this word, she was surrounded by happiness.
Or maybe, it was a kind of affection she had barely experienced in her life, and would turn very docile whenever she felt such happinessing to her.
However, she did not obey him this time, because she did not want this moment to end.
She found herself getting more and more clingy towards Jing Yiran, even when they did not do anything together. As long as she could see him and feel him, she would be assured.
Seeing that his calling her baby did not work this time, Jing Yiran thought that Lu was still thinking about what had just happened and turned a bit unhappy.
He turned down the me on the stove, and sprinkled one spoonful of salt on the lid under which the soup was boiling. Then he turned around and picked Lu up, walking out of the kitchen.
Lu did not struggle but let herself be at his mercy.
Jing Yiran seemed to like holding her and he often did this kind of gesture these days as if she were too weak to walk by herself.
The music was still on in the living room and the sunshine streamed in through the window. It was bright and warm here and the air was pleasant.
Jing Yiran sat down on the sofa and ced Lu on his legs, wrapping her inside his arms.
He pinched Lus exquisite chin, and asked in a low voice. Unhappy?
Lu did not know why he asked her that, so she answered in surprise, No, why unhappy? I am very happy.
Seeing Lus crystal-clear eyes, Jing Yiran knew that he had overthought the situation. She was not unhappy.
If she was, she would have told him so. She did not know how to hide her emotions and did not know how to y tricks, either.
He had been with enough coy women before, and was not used to Lus straightforward personality.
Seeing his little girl happy, Jing Yiran kissed her tender face and blew air in her ear, Then why did you note out when I asked you to wait for me here?
What? Lu got a bit baffled by his kiss and said after a moment, I just wanted to stay with you a bit longer, that is why.
Jing Yiran was obviously pleased by this answer.
Oh really? I misunderstood you, sorry for that. Then let me tell you that I like spending time with you a lot and I asked you to leave the kitchen just now because I did not want you to be choked by the oily air in the kitchen. It was not because I wanted you to go away from me.
He smiled brightly and his eyes were filled with gentleness and warmth. He had never expected that one day his heart would beat so fast just because he had said that he would like to spend more time with someone.
He had never held such a strong affectionate feeling towards Lu, and he was not even that eager to touch her as he had wanted to touch Shangguan Ning.
But he had never been so patient and as gentle towards Shangguan Ning as he was towards Lu, and he was never going to be so tolerant and forgiving towards any other woman as well, not even towards his deceased mother Zhang Rong.
Sometimes, Jing Yiran thought that this sort of affection could be counted as love too. He was growing closer and closer to Lu. They barely kissed, but their love had grown.
He could sense that Lu felt the same towards him, although she may not have figured it out yet.
Chapter 622 - Into Me?
Chapter 622: Into Me?
Jing Yiran felt both moved and proud when a woman leaned on him and showed full devotion towards him.
He had tried very hard to get Shangguan Ning in his possession, mostly because he was jealous of Jing Yichen, not because he truly loved Shangguan Ning.
He was jealous of their deep affection and of Jing Yichen who despite being cold, had managed to get a woman fully devoted to him.
But now he was no longer jealous. He was calm because his woman was better than anyone else in the world.
His gentle voice, and looks would have melted any woman but Lu was not so sensitive towards these things. All she knew was that Jing Yiran made her feelfortable.
Jing Yiran did not expect Lu to be like those women who threw themselves at him or punched him with light fists on his chest, letting out a lustful voice.
His Lu was different, although this made him unhappy at times.
But he had always been mentally strong. He had never given up even when he lost all the battles against Jing Yichen.
Cultivating women required patience, infinite patience.
It was already a big step when Lu was willing to sit on his legs and lean into his arms. She had not beenfortable with it before, and remarked that this posture was not good in case of a sudden crisis.
But Lu, at this moment, was feeling very rxed in Jing Yirans arms.
She really enjoyed being held by Jing Yiran in this way and had almost gotten addicted to this posture. She was not willing to leave his embrace anytime soon.
She stretched out her supple hands and felt Jing Yirans cheeks, showing a light smile.
Jing Yiran liked being touched by her. It was a rare move and made him feel warm.
You are into me?
He whispered in Lus ear and had a sly smile on his face as he saw Lu slightly trembling because of his lips being close to her ear.
His little girl was slow in the field of affection, but she had a very sensitive body!
Lu thought for a moment about Jing Yirans question and then answered seriously, Seems so.
Jing Yiran became sad when it took her three whole minutes toe up with the answer and that too with seems attached to it.
But he had asked Lu this question before and Lu had t out denied it then. Compared to that, todays answer could be counted as a big progress. Jing Yiran decided to learn to be satisfied with small victories after being upset for a moment.
He thought that he might need twenty more years before Lu was able to give him some heated vows like I love you to death, I want to be with you forever, etc.
Then, what do you like about me? He kept pushing Lu to answer such questions so that she could progress faster.
Seeing his perfect face in front of her eyes, Lu moved her fingers over his sexy, thin lips and his straight nose bridge and said, You look handsome.
She stopped herself from saying that he looked pretty at thest minute. Jing Yiran would always get furious when she said those words, so she followed his wishes and reced pretty with handsome.
However, even telling him that he was handsome did not soothe his injured heart. He was deeply hurt by his woman.
Baby, cant you just be a little bit less straightforward...
You should, at least, tell me that I have a great air and charm, something not that simple and in.
Handsome? That was so shallow!
She was indeed his antidote. He had fallen into her trap and was going to stay there for his lifetime!
Wanting more, Jing Yiran continued. What else, apart from the looks?
Lu thought for a while and said unsurely, You can... cook?
Okay, that was indeed a practical merit. But this merit had not been verified yet, because he had only made Lu a bowl of noodles, a dish of tomato with scrambled eggs and nothing else till now. That did not count as real cooking. What he had done today could be called cooking.
Jing Yiran gave up his cultivation at this point. Any more words from her would hurt his heart badly.
He took Lu in his arms and decided to give her some physical touch.
He had lived with Lu for some time now, but till this hour, they had never done anything more than hugging while sleeping.
Jing Yiran did not have that urge towards Lu even at this moment. He felt that holding her was already enough.
That was also another reason why he wondered if he truly was in love with Lu.
He was a man with normal needs. Lu was a pretty girl with fine features. Her shape was wonderful, as well. Normally, he should have experienced a physical reaction by now but he had not yet got any!
He had wondered for a long while, if he could not get hard in front of Lu because of Mu Qings needles.
He decided to get himself checked by Mu Qing soon. What if he had developedplications? At this rate, he would lose all the sexual happiness for the rest of his life!
More importantly, if he could not make his own woman attain pleasure, then he would feel very humiliated as a man!
He was Jing Yichens coborator at the moment. Jing Yichen needed his help to capture Yang Muyan. So, Mu Qing was definitely not going to give him needles at this point.
Jing Yirans hands were beautiful like a piece of artwork, because he had never done any hard work ever. They looked supple and smooth.
He put his hands under Lus top, feeling her soft skin.
Lu caught hold of Jing Yirans hands as a strange feeling crept over her body. What are you doing?
Jing Yiran showed a charming smile and bit one of her earlobes. He said, Cant you tell, baby, I am in a love rtionship with you.
Under his spell, Lu could not help but utter a small sound of approval.
The feeling was shocking enough for her to turn immobile.
Hearing her small moan, Jing Yiran smiled proudly and started to lick Lus exquisite and beautiful ear.
Her ears turned red as if they had been dyed by red paint.
Lying stiff in his arms, Lu had no idea what she should do.
The strange feeling that spread all over her body all the way from the ears frightened her but made her feel good at the same time. There was an urge building inside her to shout out loudly!
Chapter 623 - Stay at Home Man
Chapter 623: Stay at Home Man
Something was definitely wrong!
Lu spoke anxiously, Stop, stop, are you trying to sleep with me?
Lu only knew about the concept of sleeping together in a rtionship.
Although Jing Yiran understood what she was thinking, he still tried to coach her in a nice voice. We can do a lot of things in a rtionship. We can watch movies, go traveling, cook, kiss, and stick with each other throughout the entire day. We can simply cuddle and dont necessarily have to do something in bed. But of course, if you are willing to do that, I am happy to do that with you, as well. I promise to satisfy you, want to try?
Lu had once seen a movie where a man was with a woman doing all those things on the bed. She had found it really boring.
But now, when she heard Jing Yiran asking her about it, her heart could not help but beat very fast!
It was an incredible feeling.
Normally, her body was in a stable state all the year around and her heart never beat fast, unless she was at the verge of dying or under some unbearable stress.
But right now, there was no stress or any death threat, yet she was getting breathless.
Jing Yiran could tell the change in her breath, which made him smile even more brightly.
He wanted to continue to grope under Lus body but his hands were gripped tightly by her and he failed to move even an inch.
Then Lu suddenly sprang up and rushed to the balcony, causing Jing Yiran to almost get thrown off the sofa.
His face sunk as he shook his head helplessly.
How unfortunate it was for him to have a girlfriend who was much stronger than himself!
He was no match to her! What was he supposed to do in such situations?
Were they going to live forever like a brother and a sister? Living the so-called tonic love?
Stopping himself from panicking, Jing Yiran told himself not to give up. He did not want to experience the so-called tonic love, he wanted to behave as the biggest womanizer in A City who was extremely capable in all aspects. He was definitely going to do something with his girl!
However, that was not going to be achieved in a hurry and they needed to eat first.
Lu was a docile girl. She might not be into this kind of matter, yet as long as he taught her right, she was surely going to like it!
Jing Yiran gave himself some confidence and entered the kitchen, humming happily.
He finished cooking and then called out to Lu to help him carry the dishes to the table.
Lus ears were still red, but she looked calm andposed as if she was not affected by what had just happened a few minutes ago.
Jing Yiran had cooked rice, made four dishes and a batch of soup. There was woked sliced mutton, garlic beef, sweet and sour ribs, mushroom chicken dices, and fish tofu soup. All of them were Lus favorites.
Jing Yiran had never made these dishes before.
Jing Yichen had been through all kinds of bitterness in his childhood and had not been allowed to eat at home for a certain period of time to ensure that he could survive alone. Jing Zhongxiu had not allowed anyone to feed him and as a result, Jing Yichen learnt to cook when he was really young. Now, he was a really skilled cook.
But Jing Yiran was a master who had been served by people all through his life. He had never been to the kitchen and simply got everything he wanted, at hismand.
He had never intended to learn anything, because servants and cooks at home were always at his service.
After he was driven out of the Jing Family, he was no longer the master. Especially after he got shot by Jing Yichen, he lived through a very bitter period.
If he had learnt to cook earlier, he and Lu would not have ended up eating so much junk food.
Junk food did not provide any nutrients or energy for Lu, so she had to eat all the time to keep the hunger away.
So, he learnt how to use the gas stove and how to manage different types of food ingredients. He learnt cooking from the inte and chose the dishes, all for Lus sake.
A womanizer had be a stay at home man. How wonderful!
She protected him with her life and as her man, all he could do at the moment was to feed her.
Luckily, he was not born to be a terrible cook, after all. After several failed attempts, he finally mastered the trick. The dishes he made did not look good and some of them had burnt, but the seasoning was alright and the condiments like scallions, gingers and garlic were all well ced, so the dishes did not taste too bad.
Also, Lu was not too particr about food and would always swallow down any food within her reach.
Seeing his woman eat the food made by him, Jing Yiran felt immensely satisfied. Cooking had started to interest him a great deal, suddenly.
He must learn to cook well and make money too, when he had such a food lover living with him. It was not his style to spend Jing Yichens money. That was humiliating.
Lu had not felt so full in a very long time. She liked meat more than vegetables. Although she ate vegetables, if she could choose, she would not touch a single leaf of the green nts.
Meat always gave her more energy and she enjoyed it thoroughly.
She finished all the food and then started to drink the soup. Suddenly, she realized that Jing Yiran had barely touched anything.
She was aware that she had an unusuallyrge appetite, so she asked worriedly, Did I eat your portion too? I will be careful next time. I hadnt eaten such amazing food in ages so I became too happy to remember anything else!
Jing Yiran had been very d to see her eat so happily, but he suddenly turned a bit sour when he heard her words.
When Lu was living with the Jing Family, they gave her good food making sure that she never starved.
But now that she was with him, she could not even eat a proper meal.
How terrible he had be that he could not even get enough meat for his woman!
No woman would be willing to stay by his side, when he had nothing in his pocket and a bullet in his head!

Jing Yiran stretched out his hand to pat Lus long hair gently as he said with a smile, It is okay, I am not hungry. As long as you are happy, I dont care if I eat anything. I made the food for you.
If he had been alone, he would not have spent so much time and energy upon making the dishes.
Cooking made him look less noble.
But, at this point, he found cooking a great deal of fun too, because no matter how terrible his cooking was, Lu would always enjoy it and would not waste even a morsel.
If you like it, I can make food for you tomorrow, as well. My cooking skills will definitely get better tomorrow after todays experience.
It was just cooking. He was free so he was willing to do anything that made Lu happy.
He was going to adore and spoil his girl so she could be healthy.
A light smile hovered over Lus baby face and her eyes reflected joy. Great, I will eat these dishes tomorrow again. I think you cook well and I will definitely save some for you tomorrow. I cant let you starve.
Because of her special bodyposition, she got hungry very easily. So eating made her feel satisfied. At the same time, if she saw anyone starving, she would not be happy. Especially if it was Jing Yiran.
She could tell how carefully Jing Yiran was taking care of her. She might not have said it out loud, but she was very grateful for what he had done for her.
She did not care much about herself. But Jing Yiran remembered even the smallest things about her. He took great care of her without being told, just like a stay at home man from a TV-series.
He was always patient in teaching her stuff, such as how a girl should not share a bed with a man, easily.
He had once heard about her sharing the same bed with some male killers at the camp without any taboos between them. She had been 17 years old at that time and knew nothing about men and women. All she was aware of, was that men and women were physically different. But those male killers did not seem to have an interest in her and treated her as a rock, and thats how she treated them back, as well.
At the camp, people did not differentiate on the basis of gender but on abilities. Gender did not matter.
She had always thought that sharing the same bed with men was very normal.
But Jing Yiran made her promise that apart from him, she should not share the bed with any other man.
That was not a difficult thing. She had followed his order and promised him that she would do what he asked her. Only then had he stopped frowning.
Later, Jing Yiran started to make many Nos and Donts, where he exined to her about how to behave like a normal girl.
She didck the knowledge in this aspect, because her parents never taught her these things. Camps did not teach her how to be a girl, either. As an orphan, with the virus in her body, she cared about nothing.
Shangguan Ning had taught her a few things, but she had described them to the other Lu. So she had no idea what Shangguan Ning had told her.
Jing Yiran had stressed upon one point the most C never ever touch the sensitive part of a man!
She knew that men were weak in that part and that was to be used when she was killing a man. But she did not know that if the part was gripped, a man would be stimted.
She had once gripped Jing Yirans manhood without any preamble and that left a deep impression on Jing Yiran who had to stress this point.
Of course, what Jing Yiran had told her was that she could touch it whenever she wanted as long as she was touching only him.
But Lu did not think that was a fun thing to hold. She gripped that thing to kill, not to y.
But she was aware that shecked experience in various aspects and her view towards the world was different from that of others. So she nodded obediently and remembered everything that Jing Yiran told her.
Jing Yiran was changing when he was with her. So was she.
Jing Yiran had taught her how to care about him and she was learning. She might be slow but she did it because she really did care about him.
After thinking for a while, Lu gave thest bowl of soup to Jing Yiran and said, Drink it!
Jing Yiran got a bit startled and then realized her intentions. She wanted to spare a bowl for him, although she could have easily consumed it.
Good. His cultivation had started to work. She would not have known how to share this with him, earlier.
He smiled and said, Feed me then.
Lu looked at his hand and asked in confusion. Did you hurt your hands while cooking?
Jing Yiran almost passed out at these words!
But he was already used to Lus unexpected words, so he recovered fast and said, That is one of the things a couple in a rtionship would do. Feed each other! That helps increase affection and the love bes deeper. Come on, feed me.
Lu did not know if others were doing this, because she never noticed this kind of thing.
But Jing Yiran said so and he was always right about such matters. Also, feeding Jing Yiran might be troublesome but if it led to deeper affection, she was willing to do it.
When Jing Yiran had been badly hurt, she fed him at that time.
She picked up the spoon and the bowl, and started feeding him attentively.
Seeing her behave so obediently, Jing Yiran felt very proud.
His woman was very powerful outside home, but she was a gooddy and behaved obediently at home.
Suddenly, Jing Yiran came up with another idea. The spoon is too hard. I dont want to drink it with a spoon.
Lu was confused. Spoons are always hard. There is nothing soft for you to drink it with. You did notin about the hard spoons before.
There is. Jing Yirans eyes had turned flirty.
Lu was used to this kind of expression of his by now. Whenever he was smiling in this way, it spelled trouble.
What is it?
Chapter 625 - Still No Kisses?
Chapter 625: Still No Kisses?
Jing Yiran ced his fingers upon Lus plump lips, caressing them gently as he threw a lustful look at her. Then he said in an extremely sexy voice, With your lips.
Lu did not get swayed by his charm. She was immune to it.
She looked at Jing Yiran with herrge eyes and thought about his behavior. Are you flirting with me?
Oh, no. We are in a rtionship. I am not flirting but leading us to have some fun!
Jing Yiran could not help but lick his own lips as he saw her delicious ones.
He and Lu had barely experienced any sort of intimacy. They had tried kissing several times, but failed.
Lu did not like being kissed, and even if she was, there was no response from her end.
Jing Yiran got excited each time he tried to kiss her, but got upset by her dead fish behavior. Soon after, his affection would fizzle out, leaving a bitter smile on his face.
It was a failure for him not being able to conquer this little inexperienced girl despite being such a charming and handsome man.
When he was with Lu, they were more like siblings, not a couple.
But the situation had be better during these past few days. Lu was no longer as self-centered as she used to be.
For example, she did not start an argument with him when she became aware that he was teasing her.
Infact, she copied his movement, and extended her fingers to touch his lips.
Jing Yiran looked at Lu in astonishment. What was this girl up to, today? Could it be because he had cooked for her?
If she continued in this manner, something would surely happen!
He looked at this cute doll with interest, wanting to bite her but unwilling to interrupt her at the same time.
By now, Lu had realized that Jing Yiran was not hungry anymore. He did not have much interest in food anyways and he was not like her who could forget everything else whenever offered food.
He was thinking about something else. He always wanted to touch her. Kissing her forehead was already a natural move on his part, and even she had started to enjoy the feeling even though she had been unhappy about it at the beginning.
Yes, she enjoyed being kissed by Jing Yiran on her forehead now.
His lips were sexy and he smelled heavenly. His warm touch made her be gradually obsessed with it.
She was slow in feeling and disying affection, or maybe it was because all she had done till now was killing. She did not know how to get on well with a man as a woman.
Sometimes she found herself behaving like a robot, one without any feelings.
The virus inside her had not only transformed her body but also her emotions.
She was like a toddler who was walking under Jing Yirans guidance.
Now, she hade up with a more effective method. She would do whatever Jing Yiran did to her.
For example, he had touched her lips just now, so she followed suit even though she did not find it very meaningful.
But Jing Yirans expression showed that he was really d.
The soup was turning cold, but the living room was turning hot.
Jing Yiran was enjoying being touched by her. He ced her on his legs, wrapping her in his long arms.
This kind of embrace showed the possessive desire of a man, which was, however, unknown to Lu.
Even if she had known about it, she would not have minded. It was ok if Jing Yiran wanted to dominate her.
She enjoyed following Jing Yiran because she was not good at these things, herself. Even if she was asked to take the lead, she would not have managed to do it well.
In Lus eyes, this Second Master of the Jing Family, who was considered unreliable by others, was someone to be trustedpletely.
There was always someone out there for you and it was just a matter of finding that person.
Jing Yiran was the right man for Lu. His drawbacks were nothing to Lu who did not care about money or fame. He could be the master of the Jing Family, or he could be an ordinary man. But, he was great in her eyes.
As she was lying in his arms, listening to his heartbeat, she let out a sigh of satisfaction.
Seeing her in his embrace in silence and touching his lips, Jing Yiran understood that she was enjoying this cozy moment.
He held her small body in his arms, stood up and started to walk towards the bedroom.
Lu reacted very fast to it and asked subconsciously, Are you nning to do something?
Jing Yiranughed. So you understand what I am up to. I need to do something to satisfy you!
He ced Lu upon the bed andid upon her.
Lus eyes widened and she gazed at him, innocently.
Her baby-face and naive looks made her seem like a little girl who had never experienced anything in life. Jing Yiran stopped. He could not do anything to her.
The desire had disappeared again.
But he did not n to give up this time. He gently caressed Lus soft hair and pinched her smooth cheeks as he whispered. Baby, close your eyes.
Lu did what he told her to.
Jing Yiran slowly lowered his head and approached her lips. When he was only a breath away from her, Lu suddenly opened her eyes and said something that almost made Jing Yiran pass out. Why are you not kissing me yet? I have been waiting for you for too long!
Damn girl, where did she learn that?
She would not have said something like this before. She would have just said the first half of the sentence.
It ruined the atmosphere, and even an experienced man like Jing Yiran could no longer continue.
This girl must have done that on purpose!
Jing Yiran red at her angrily. No more talking while kissing!
You are talking! Why am I not allowed to talk? Lu was not convinced. It was just a kiss. Why did he make it out to be such a big deal? She found Jing Yirans behaviour very weird.
It is different! My words can make the atmosphere wonderful but yours would ruin it!
Jing Yiran raised his eyebrows as he pinched her chin and threatened in a low voice, No more talking next time and when you do, speak like ady! Or no food for three days in a row!
Chapter 626 - Angry?
Chapter 626: Angry?
Even if Lu did not eat for ten days or more, she would still not starve. The virus inside her would swallow the cells and give her energy to survive until all the cells were dead.
But she could not handle starving. So even if she would not die because of it, she still wanted to eat many things in a day, otherwise she would feel unwell.
She could not stand not being fed for three days!
No way, that is too cruel. I do not know how to speak like a gentledy, but I do not want to stay hungry. You just said that you were going to cook tasty food for me and now you have gone back on your word. You are a liar.
Jing Yirans lips twitched. He had forgotten that making Lu talk in a lustful way like other girls was more difficult than travelling to another.
Also, she had learnt to bargain!
Had he taught her too well?
Also, you did make me wait for too long. You have not kissed me even till now!
Lu sounded a bit displeased. That startled Jing Yiran.
He asked carefully, You want me to kiss you?
What just happened?
Whenever he tried to kiss Lu, she would always speak in a disdainful way, Why must we bite each other like this? Do you like my saliva so much? I dont like yours, I prefer pigs feet.
Any man would lose the desire to kiss when he heard such words.
So uptill now, all Jing Yiran had done was to kiss her forehead rather than touch her red lips.
Kissing required the consent of both sides. There would be no passion if the other person regarded you worse than even pigs feet!
But now Lu did not seem to think that him kissing her was any problem. Was she finally into being kissed by him?
Before he could express his happiness, Lu spoke up, I dont want you to kiss me, but I need to cooperate with you when you are in the mood to kiss me. Didnt you exin it to me?
So she was still not there yet!
She was trying to cooperate with him? They were not in a TV show!
Wasnt it a normal thing to share some kisses?
Jing Yiran waspletely defeated by Lu.
He understood why he never had that strong affection towards Lu till date. She was not desirable enough!
He had been attracted towards those prettydies but his desire tended to go down when he was with her.
Oh god, what had he done that he had to suffer so much!
Jing Yiranid upon Lu helplessly. After a few moments, he got up but before moving away, he bit upon Lus shoulder.
Lu was not that sensitive towards pain, because she had been injured much more severely enough times.
In return, she also took a bite at his shoulder.
Ah!
Jing Yiran let out a shout when he felt the pain.
He threw a look at his shoulder and then at Lus. Obviously, he had taken a bigger and deeper bite and even left a mark on her shoulder, but Lu had not even uttered a sound.
Jing Yiran found himself in deep trouble when he had the top ranked killer as his girlfriend, who was also physically abnormal.
His advantage as a man would never be reflected in front of her. Lu was much stronger than him. She did not need his warmth and that upset him and made him feel that he was useless.
Jing Yiran looked at Lus face and stood up. Then he went to the living room to pick the dishes and carried them to the kitchen for washing.
Lu was slow in reacting, but she was not silly. She realized that Jing Yiran was not happy.
She was confused but tried to hazard a guess.
She stood up and followed him into the kitchen. There, she put on a pair of rubber gloves and started to do the dishes with him.
You are mad?
Not yet.
Why are you mad?
I am not.
You are, I can feel it.
Just go and rest. I can do the dishes by myself.
You are an adult, you must not fight with me.
Jing Yiran got really irritated by her words.
Now she had learnt to lecture him?
He was not arguing with her. If he was really angry, he would not have spoken to her.
He had known Lu for a long time and understood her true nature. He had been prepared to teach her right from the beginning and was used to her cold behavior and ignorance. He had run into many situations like todays incident and it wasnt a big deal anymore.
He removed the rubber gloves and swept the girl into his arms. Then he moved his fingers to feel her smooth hair. We are not arguing and I am not angry, but something is amiss. I am just upset.
Because you did not kiss me? I allowed you to kiss me but you gave it up.
Alright, it was not possible tomunicate with a girl who seemed to be an alien.
Also, why was she going on and on about the kiss?
Did she really want him to kiss her?
Jing Yiran lifted her chin and suddenly kissed her.
Her lips were cool, and fragrant, like a delicious candy which was highly addictive.
But Jing Yiran controlled himself. He did not prate deeper into Lus mouth, because he knew that she did not like it.
He kissed her lips gently, caressing them.
Lus eyes widened at his sudden gesture. Immediately, she remembered that Jing Yiran had told her to close her eyes when she was kissed.
Her long eyshes were trembling when she closed her eyes.
Just as she closed her eyes, her other senses turned sharper.
The touch and the warm softness between the lips did not bring Lu any joy. But she did not find it bad, either.
Somehow, Jing Yirans kisses made it feel just right.
Jing Yiran had noticed that Lu did not frown or push him away this time. She could have, if she wanted to.
She needed time and he needed to treat her as a child instead of an adult, for now. She knew about things but had not experienced them. That was why she felt ufortable at times.
Chapter 627 - Love Cultivation
Chapter 627: Love Cultivation
The kiss did notst long. Jing Yiran soon released Lu. But right then, he made a new rule. Come to me every day for a kiss, alright?
Lu was confused. Why?
We need to cultivate our love!
Jing Yiran put the rubber gloves back on his hands and started to wash the dishes. He was thinking that if she kissed him every day, then it would only take half a month before she got used to it. Then, he would take the next step. He could not be so conservative all the time. He was a man after all!
After doing the dishes, Jing Yiran rushed to the bathroom to take a shower, and get rid of the oily smell. Dressed up in afortable, casual outfit, he watched the gossip news with Lu in his arms, sitting on the sofa.
Lu had also taken a shower and her hair was still damp. Her fragrance and clean touch was making Jing Yiran feel excited.
Lu was sitting on his thighs quietly, watching the TV with him.
She was not interested in this kind of news, but after living with Jing Yiran for so long, she did it since he liked it. She did not have anything else to do, anyways.
Also, she was learning something new through this every time.The gossip channels had opened a window for her to another world, where she found things confusing and curious. Why were all these people in love? Why were they cursing at each other as if they were enemies?
Jing Yiran told her that these things happened in daily life. He asked her to watch and learn so that she could understand emotions better.
Lu did not find it to be anything good. These people were living an even harder life than she was. Her life was simple. As a person infected with a virus, living as a killer, she barely went out seeking trouble, not like these people on TV.
After watching it for a while, Jing Yiran noticed that Lus hair was still not dry. But she did not care about it. He shook his head helplessly. This girl was too careless. She did not pay attention to anything rted to herself. Was she not afraid of catching a cold due to damp hair?
The Second Master of the Jing Family cared a lot about his woman and in the process, he had forgotten that no other virus could affect her body, no matter what! The virus would die the moment it entered her body, because there was a worse version of it already existent inside!
Jing Yiran had asked his servant to buy the hair dryer sometime back. He had not meant to use it on Lu, because when they moved in, he and Lu were not as close as they were now and he would not do something so intimate for her.
The hair dryer was meant for him. He was a man who cared about his hairstyle as much as his life.
He could die, but he could not allow his hair to be ruined. That was what a casanova was like.
He would always set his hair up after shower and style it nicely. He would not leave home unless the hair was well done.
Of course, when he was living at the Jing Family, he had a special hairstylist devoted to him. Later, when he started living alone, he soon learnt to style it himself.
But recently, he often blow-dried Lus hair and did a good job at it.
He liked it when women were dressed in pretty outfits, and had long hair. It would be best if the hair was in coffee-color or dark red, which would make her look stunning.
He had once been interested in Shangguan Nings golden brown hair. Some women did not look good with dyed hair, but Shangguan Ning had acquired a special air after the hair was colored.
However, now he liked Lus natural hair. It was smooth and jet ck as if it were the best quality silk in the world. He liked it very much.
One of Jing Yirans greatest pastimes was to style hair for Lu and she also enjoyed having her hair blown by him. No one had ever taken care of her in such a loving way as he did.
Jing Yiran turned on the hair dryer and started blowing the hair for her in a proficient way. When the hair was half done, he suddenly had an idea. Baby, what about me trimming your hair?
Lu had alwaysined about her long hair, which obstructed her from moving fast.
She preferred short hair, but did not know anything about cutting hair and hated it when a hairdresser moved around with scissors over her head. She would always assume that the hairdresser was up to something. He could end her life while he was cutting it.
There were two killers from the camp who died while getting their hair done, so Lu did not like hairdressers. In fact, more than half of the killers at the camp did not like hairdressers and never visited a barber. They did their hair by themselves.
Same went for Lu. She never visited a barber and had recently started making a small ponytail.
But she agreed when Jing Yiran offered to cut her hair.
She just could not stand it when someone else held scissors above her head, but she did not find Jing Yiran an opponent, so it was okay.
However, after she sat down on the chair on the balcony, she suddenly remembered to ask a question. Jing Yiran, do you know how to give a haircut?
Jing Yiran stiffened behind her back with scissors in his hands.
Of course... he did not. It was such a difficult thing.
However, he could try. Lu had long hair and it was just a matter of making it short by a few centimeters.
It is very easy, of course I can do it. Dont worry, I will make you look good!
Jing Yiran boasted without feeling guilty.
Lu believed him. She nodded and even praised proudly. You can do anything. So capable! I can do nothing except for killing. It seems that we will never starve. You cut hair and I kill. We will have meat for each meal!
Jing Yirans hands trembled, and Lus long hair fell on the floor.
That did not sound right...
What did she mean by meat for each meal if she killed?!
That sounded horrible!
Jing Yiran suddenly felt that he would not be able to eat meat for the next few days!
What was more, he didnt know how to cut hair. He could bluff Lu, but not others.
Fortunately, cutting long hair was easy. As long as Jing Yirans hands did not tremble too much, the result was not going to be that bad.
Jing Yiran liked Lus long hair, so he did not cut a whole lot of it.
Chapter 628 - Long Hair, Less Power
Chapter 628: Long Hair, Less Power
Afterwards, Lu checked herself in the mirror and then turned to look at him with wide eyes. She said, Half an hour, and you have basically achieved nothing.
Her hair was only one inch shorter and still came till her shoulder. She had thought that she would see a new version of her with short hair but the result turned out to be different!
He did not know how to cut hair!
Jing Yiran was so tired that his wrist had started hurting, and his client did not like what he had done. His lips twitched and he said morosely, What do you mean? Your hair is much shorter, cant you see the difference?
No, it is too long. Cut it more please.
No more! It is the right length, making you look like ady.
Lu did not care if she looked like ady or not. Long hair would slow her down in crucial moments.
My hair, my call. Long hair slows me down in fights and I am less powerful, then.
It was the first time for Jing Yiran to hear that long hair would make someone less powerful in fighting!
He grabbed her waist in displeasure and said with a frown, Dont get into fights, then the length of hair wont be an issue.
Only now did Lu realize that she did not need to undertake killing assignments any more. Her life had already changed tremendouslypared to the previous times.
But she was used to staying in a battle mode to be able to confront all kinds of problems which arose suddenly.
For example, if she had not been prepared the day before, she would have run into problems.
Actually, she was not only equipped with power but also high speed. When she used her speed, she was able to take down the gun before it was shot.
However, if her hair was too long, her speed would be affected adversely.
She thought for a while and said, I dont like it when my hair is too long. It is not very convenient for me, even when I wash it. Please cut it short.
Jing Yiran could not persuade her, so he cut half of the remaining length. Now, when she made a ponytail, it would make her look like a teenager.
Seeing her reflection against the mirror, she was slightly satisfied.
However, Jing Yiran seemed to be less skilled than even she was, in cutting. She had been cutting her hair for years and Jing Yiran undertook the task for the first time.
Lu did not care about hairstyles. Being bald could expose her and attract attention, so she had not chosen that.
Jing Yiran had thought that cutting hair for Lu would make him feel proud, but the result was the opposite.
He was indeed not that skillful. Had it not been for Lus pretty face, any other girl would have resembled an old aunt with this kind of hairstyle.
Their daily life was upside down. Normally, they would sleep during the day ande out at night. So it was already veryte at the moment and Jing Yiran was in good spirits.
But Lu needed rest.
She put her arms around Jing Yirans waist out of habit and buried her face into his arms. She mumbled into his chest. I am sleepy...
Her emotional dependence on him made her different from before, when she often left without even saying anything and fell asleep in the bedroom.
Although her intention was not to show her charming side, her baby-like voice made her sound really cute.
Startled, Jing Yiran picked her up and carried her to the bedroom to rest.
They had a height difference of about 30 cm, and Jing Yiran did not have any difficulty in carrying her.
After he settled her on the bed, he was about to leave when he was caught by Lu.
What is wrong?
Lus misty,rge eyes were on him. She said, Sleep with me.
Jing Yirans heart softened when he heard those words.
Heid down next to her, and gathered her into his arms.
Enveloped by the warm body, Lu felt veryfortable. Although she had just undergone a blood transfusion and her body temperature had risen a little, she still felt cold.
She enjoyed the feeling of being in Jing Yirans arms, warm andfortable.
If she slept alone, then the nket would be cold and make her fidgety.
Jing Yiran also liked having Lu in his arms. It was nice to have a cool body against his own when it was so hot outside.
...
At the Mus Hospital, Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were assigned to the same ward.
Jing Yichen had already fallen asleep after the operation, after losing a lot of blood and strength.
But Shangguan Ning could not fall asleep.
She was worried that something would happen to Jing Yichen, so she stayed on guard all through the night without closing her eyes. She felt his forehead every now and then. His fever had not gone down in the past many hours and kept rising.
Zheng Jing was in the ward next to theirs along with Tiger.
Tiger was seriously injured, as well. He was sleeping soundly. Mu Qing knew that he was much more than a bodyguard to Jing Yichen. So he had examined Tiger in person and helped him stitch up his wounds.
He had been busy the entire day through, and had been running about between two wards after the operation. Apart from Shangguan Ning, the other three patients had a fever. Jing Yichen was seriously wounded. Also, he had a different physical condition than that of Zheng Jing and Tiger.
After checking up Zheng Jing and Tiger, Mu Qing came to Jing Yichens ward to check him.
Shangguan Ning handed the thermometer to Mu Qing and said in a worried voice, Doctor Mu, Yichens body temperature is rising. It is now 38.7 degrees. Can you give him one more shot to bring it down?
His whole body was heated and he was lying in the bed without consciousness. Shangguan Ning was so worried that she almost cried.
Mu Qing looked at the thermometer and said with regret, Sister-inw, we cant give him too many shots. Master Jing has got two already. If I give him any more, it would be fatal for him.
Shangguan Ning held Jing Yichens hand in hers tightly and frowned. What should we do? Do you have another way?
In her heart, Mu Qing was a top-notch doctor who could deal with all kinds of wounds and diseases.
Chapter 629 - Forever
Chapter 629: Forever
Mu Qing shook his head and said truthfully, I have already given Master Jing way too many antibiotics and he should not get more shots at the moment. I could have given him some alcohol to bring the fever down, but he was seriously injured and the physical method would not work. So there is no other way to bring down his temperature at this moment.
Seeing Shangguan Ning looking so concerned, he also got worked up. But he said, Dont worry, Sister-inw, I know how Master Jing is doing. He may have a fever right now, but it doesnt matter. It is an automatic reaction of his body towards the wounds. As long as the fever doesnt spike up, his health would not be adversely affected. I wille again soon and check on him. If the temperature keeps rising, I will think of another way to bring it down.
In her mind, Shangguan Ning knew that this kind of fever was not fatal, but she was just too concerned for Jing Yichen to not worry about it. Constant fever could make him feel miserable.
But there was no better way, and Jing Yichen had to go through the pain, when Mu Qing did not suggest to Jing Yichen that he should use any painkillers.
She forced a grateful smile at Mu Qing. Okay, I understand. Go and rest, you have been working for the whole day.
Mu Qing had, as far as Shangguan Ning knew, been working for almost ten hours without resting or taking even a bite of food or a sip of water, ever since Jing Yichen and other injured men were brought in.
He was strong, but he could also copse. Now his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked really tired.
Mu Qing smiled at Shangguan Ning brightly, It is okay. As long as you are fine, I wont get tired. I am a skillful doctor and its my primary duty to save people. In this aspect, I am better than Master Jing, and proud of it.
He exchanged a few words with Shangguan Ning, and then left from there after assuring her that Jing Yichen would be fine.
As he was closing the door, he noticed how concerned Shangguan Ning was when she looked at Jing Yichen. She loved him deeply and could do anything for her. It was a touching sight.
Mu Qing had not understood why Jing Yichen would force Shangguan Ning to marry him after knowing her for such a short period in the beginning.
Jing Yichen was not an impulsive person. Instead, he was always rational and careful, and never got emotionally involved to this extent. This was the only thing which he had done impulsively.
But he had been proven wrong. Jing Yichen had not been impulsive or emotionally overwrought even when it came to marriage.
He had simply recognised that Shangguan Ning would suit him perfectly and was afraid that she may slip away from him, thus making her stay by his side, using force.
Mu Qing did admire Jing Yichen who always had a good judgement about things. He either stayed away from love rtionships or found the most reliable and devoted wife.
They were deeply connected with each other at the moment. As time went by, their emotions had strengthened and deepened.
If one of them left, the other would not be able to live on, alone.
That was the most beautiful love in the world C staying together forever until death. Their love had be so deep that they could read each others hearts.
He wondered when he and Zhao Anan would experience the same thing, staying with each other despite any difficulties, and loving each other no matter how much time had passed by.
Mu Qing did not dare to expect too much.
There was only one Jing Yichen and one Shangguan Ning in the entire world. He had witnessed too many people at the hospital but was yet to find any other couple as devoted as them.
He slid the door shut, nodded at Lee Duo and Knife Lee who were guarding outside and left.
In the ward, Shangguan Ning was sitting by Jing Yichens bedside.
She had been ignoring the increasing difort and pain in her body.
Lus blood had brought herplications. She was feeling sour and her bones had started to hurt. But right now, they were too insignificant for Shangguan Ning to bother.
Her soft hands were holding Jing Yichens. She was staring at his pale face and thought of how he had fought against those numerous strong men standing on the high pile of bodies. Her heart hurt like crazy when she thought of what Tang Shunian told her.
Luckily, she arrived in time, and had Lu with her. If she had gone there alone, she would have failed to help him and instead, slowed him down. He would not have been able to withstand the attack for too long.
Shangguan Ning was very grateful to Lu. She had helped a great deal this time. It had been because of her strength that kept her and Jing Yichen safe.
She wished that she knew how to use fists, so that she could keep herself safe even if she might not be able to help Jing Yichen.
The moment she saw Jing Yichen earlier today, she felt her heart break.
When they arrived, he was already at the verge of losing his strength!
He was supporting himself with the strongest willpower, forbidding himself to fall down.
She had almost fainted when she saw the blood all across the cer. It was such a disgusting environment with a bad smell. It was not a ce for anyone to survive in.
Some of the bodies had started rotting away. There were broken limbs everywhere, sinister and creepy. It was a ce where Jing Yichen had to spend a long time.
She had almost passed out the moment she entered the ce!
Shangguan Ning had no idea when he entered the cer, but judging from the bodies, he must have been there for way too long.
When she saw him, he was full of blood stains, messy and unkempt!
Jing Yichen was a man who had a strong obsession towards cleanness, and would feel very ufortable even if there was slight dust on his shirt. He hated it when people touched him, yet he, without any weapons, had been fighting the attack of thousands of men.
She finally realized why Jing Yichen could not be touched, but she would rather that she had not known the truth!
Tang Shunian was a shameless man!
He was mental, and a pervert.
Shangguan Ningid down carefully next to Jing Yichen, and closed her eyes. She wanted to feel his breath against her skin. She would have liked to get even closer but it wasnt possible.
Suddenly a hand crept over her face, wiping off the tears.
Why crying?
The low, hoarse voice reached her ears as Shangguan Ning suddenly opened her eyes and said with joyful surprise, You are awake, Yichen!
Chapter 630 - Fear
Chapter 630: Fear
Two hours ago, Mu Qing had told her that Jing Yichen would most probably wake up on the following day, because he was quite badly wounded this time. Due tock of water and food as well as the exhaustion, he had used up all his energy and the recovery could be slow.
Unexpectedly though, he woke up much earlier.
Shangguan Ning was so overjoyed that tears trickled down her cheeks even faster.
Jing Yichen wiped her tears and pampered her in his usual spoiling tone. Baby, dont cry. I am fine. Dont be scared. Come and snuggle into my arms.
Trying not to touch his wounds, sheid down next to him on the nket instead of getting close to him.
She truly wanted to hold him and lie in his arms. She had been frightened today and her heart was full of fear. But she suppressed those emotions at the bottom of her heart. She must not cry or behave weakly.
She still felt fear lingering inside her when she remembered todays events. One careless move and she would have found herself into the trap too. But she had been focussed upon saving Jing Yichen and did not have much concern for the looming danger.
Now that Jing Yichen was awake, all she wanted to do was hold him and talk to him.
But you are badly hurt. I dont want to make your wounds worse bying too close to you.
A slight smile hovered over Jing Yichens pale face. You are a cautious person, nothing will happen. Come closer, I really want to hug you. These are all small injuries, not important enough.
Shangguan Ning hesitated for a minute, but then went inside the nket andid down next to him. She slipped her hands around his broad waist, carefully.
I have no wounds on the waist, you can hold me tighter.
Shangguan Ning did what he told her to.
Jing Yichen could feel his womans supple body and also how emotionally dependent she was on him. He could feel her trust and love for him and sensed that his heart had started to warm up.
Although the wounds were hurting right now, he did not care about them. He had his thoughts focussed totally upon the woman in his arms.
He lowered his head to kiss her exquisite face treating her like his precious most treasure.
Shangguan Nings heart was also assured now.
With Jing Yichen in her arms, she said between sobs, You did note homest night and I couldnt get through your phone. I was so scared. I could not sleep the entire night and waited for you with Jing Rui in my arms. I knew that if you had been fine, you would havee home. So I called dad before the dawn broke and then went looking for you with him. Ruirui is still at the Jing Family. I havent seen or fed him the whole day. I am wondering how he is doing.
Jing Yichen could imagine how anxious and scared Shangguan Ning must have been. He always came home on time, and even if he could not make it, he would definitely call her and tell her the reason.
They loved each other deeply and if Shangguan Ning did note home one night and he lost touch with her, he would have lost his mind too.
He was already proud of her, because she waited until this moment to tell him about her ordeal. She had calmly met Tang Shunian and gone looking for him in the bloody cer.
She was braver than he had imagined!
She loved him more than anyone!
Jing Yichen kissed her and looked at her in concern. It is my fault to have frightened you. I will be more careful in the future.
All through the day, she had forgotten about Jing Rui. Only now she remembered her child.
Jing Yichen patted her back and consoled her in a low voice, Our son wont starve. Old Lady will surely take care of him. She brought up Jing Yiran and she is definitely going to take care of her great grandson well enough! Grandpa is there as well. The Jing Family are well guarded and no one will be able to break in.
Shangguan Ning nodded and replied with a small yes.
Every mother would care about her son, and Jing Rui was the darling of her heart.
But she could not go back to the Jing Family to take care of Jing Rui right now. She needed to make sure that Jing Yichen was fine, first. Only when Jing Yichen was well, would she and her son have someone to rely on and the family would stayplete and secure.
Ning, what you did today is the only time you are allowed to do so. Next time, dont take any risk for me. Tang Shunian is a sinister being and you are not going to be able to beat him. Stay away as far away as possible from him .
Jing Yichen told his wife.
He thought that Shangguan Ning did not know much about Tang Shunians mental state and craziness. It had been a dangerous decision to interact with him.
What was more, Tang Shunian had had his eyes upon Shangguan Ning all this time. That had already breached Jing Yichens bottomline!
He was absolutely not going to allow anyone to even think about his wife!
But dont worry, I have discovered who he is and he wont be able to hide any longer. Sooner orter, I will end his life!
Jing Yichens tone had turned lethal.
He was not going to let Tang Shunian live for too long.
Tang Shunian had been atrge for eleven years. It was time for him to die!
He must be hiding somewhere, and it was not realistic to find him within a couple of days. He was, after all, pretty good at hiding.
But after five more days of rest, he would start looking for him. Even if Tang Shunian was hidden somewhere very safely, he would still find him.
Jing Yichen did not know that Shangguan Ning already knew about having been clicked by Tang Shunians men. She may not know Tang Shunian well, but had already understood how crazy he was.
She hated Tang Shunian deeply, not because he was interested in her, but because he had hurt the man she loved.
Shangguan Ning did not get disturbed when she heard that Jing Yichen was going to look for Tang Shunian. He was a crazy dog who needed to be put down.
She had undergone a slight change in her outlook towards life after this experience. She was no longer uneasy or guilty towards the deaths of others.
Maybe it was because she had witnessed too many dead men today or maybe because she believed that Tang Shunian deserved to be in hell. Shangguan Nings personality had started to reflect a touch of coldness that resembled that of Jing Yichens.
Chapter 631 - You Are Mine
Chapter 631: You Are Mine
What Shangguan Ning wanted to do at the moment was protect her beloved man, her son, and her family. She did not care much about others.
Well, he deserves death. But you have to make sure that you dont put yourself in danger during this period. Take time to build your n. Recover first. You are having a fever right now and it is rising constantly. If you are feeling unwell, please tell me immediately. I will get Doctor Mu.
Jing Yichen was not Lu. His muscles were hurting and there were many wounds on his body. He was not feeling well but he did not utter a word ofint. Instead, he consoled Shangguan Ning. It is fine, I only need one night of sleep to recover. Dont worry about me. Are you feeling alright?
Shangguan Ning had not noticed anything about herself until Jing Yichen reminded her. She was feeling something weird.
But she already knew about the expectedplications from Mu Wensheng and was not too worried.
I am fine, just a little difort. It is not as serious as what Grandpa Mu warned me against.
Jing Yichen smiled and said, Mu Qing might make mistakes in treatment but never Grandpa Mu. If he tells you whatplications you are going to develop, you will get them sooner thanter. The time has not yet arrived.
Lus blood could increase peoples physical function within a short period of time so people could be a superhero. If this information was leaked, Lu would probably die.
Many ouws and criminals did not care aboutplications. All they needed was the power.
So only a few people knew what Lus blood could do and whatplications would arise because of it.
However, Mu Wensheng once took her blood sample and did an in-depth analysis of it. In order to make sure that the research was urate, he drank Lus blood himself and recorded the observations.
So his judgement about Shangguan Nings situation would not be wrong.
Shangguan Ning was not so worried about herself. She only cared about how Jing Yichen was doing.
She wanted to ask if he felt ufortable after having been insulted by Tang Shunian. But she tried not to remind him of the terrible incident and swallowed down what she wanted to say.
But Jing Yichen seemed to have read her mind. He whispered gently. Silly girl, dont worry about me. I am fine. My dad trained me for all kinds of tough situations. His ruthlessly strict program helped me survive. I had thought that I would never end up in such a dangerous situation but I realized that I was wrong. My position has created potential danger for me and my life is never going to be peaceful.
Shangguan Ning felt that her heart was stung with pain.
He was the best man in the country, a master who should have been enjoying his life. But he had gone through so much misery and was wounded so many times.
Jing Yichen never feared difficulties, and never dodged any failure.
The only thing he would like to forget was the torment which he had experienced eleven years ago.
But today, Tang Shunian had forcefully brought out the suppressed memory and tried to duplicate what happened eleven years ago. Jing Yichen had been miserable at the beginning but now, when he was holding his beloved woman in his arms, he felt his heart to be at peace. The past memories were something he no longer needed to hide from. He could ept them now.
Ning, havent you always wondered why I cant be touched by people?
Jing Yichens hoarse voice reached her ears. His words startled Shangguan Ning.
She had not known about his past, so she sometimes used to ask him. If she had known about the cause, she would have definitely kept quiet.
It was like adding fuel to the fire.
Jing Yichen had not been willing to tell the truth, fearing about reliving the memory. But when he was willing to discuss it with her, that might mean that it didnt hold as much power over him now.
She stretched out one finger and ced upon his pale lips, stopping him from saying anything more.
Hush, I know everything. Let bygones be bygones. Just remember that you are mine, from head to toe.
Jing Yichen was a bit surprised but said, Tang Shunian told you about it?
Shangguan Ning nodded gently.Yes, I truly wanted to kill him at that time. No one, no woman or man, is allowed to touch you. I will beat them all!
Jing Yichen chuckled hearing her intimidating words. He understood that she was trying to console him in her own way.
But he did not need any constion now.
He had found it disgusting and insulting earlier, but now, he found that he could ept all kinds of humiliation, as long as Shangguan Ning was fine with it.
Compared to what he had been through, he would rather not see Tang Shunian staring at Shangguan Nings pictures.
Tang Shunian must have been feeling proud to get Ning to see Jing Yichen at his weakest because he thought that he had beaten him by doing this.
Tang Shunian would feel aplished thinking that the perfect image of a husband would have been ruined in the wifes heart.
But he was wrong.
His image in Shangguan Ning had never wobbled.
Jing Yichen kissed Shangguan Nings forehead and said in a low voice, Sleep in my arms. You may suffer from some pain tomorrow. Try to rest before ites.
Shangguan Ning felt satisfied after being kissed and hugged by him. She could tolerate all kinds of pain with him around.
She lifted her head and kissed his chin where his stubble had cast a shadow. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
The following morning when they woke up, Jing Yichen did not have fever any more. After one nights rest and medicine, he did not look that pale as well.
But now, it was Shangguan Ning who had turned feeble.
The reaction had broken out.
She felt pain all over her body, especially in the bones. It felt as if some ants were biting her deep into the marrow!
She could no longer eat. Even with Jing Rui present, she had be too weak to hold him, fearing that she would drop her son.
Chapter 632 - Dad Feeding
Chapter 632: Dad Feeding
By the third day, the pain increased even more. Shangguan Ning couldnt even get off the bed by herself. Her bones ached so much that it was killing her.
Mu Qing injected arge amount of nutritive solution into her and asked Lee Duo to bring the golden medical wine from Jing Yichens home.
But none of the painkillers worked on her. She was still in the breastfeeding period, and normal drugs could not be used.
Jing Yichen had been staying by her side. He felt both guilty and heartbroken when he saw her pale face.
Shangguan Ning consoled him whilst trying to suppress the pain. I am fine. The pain is worth it. If I had to make the choice again, I would still have opted to go to you without hesitation.
Jing Yichens eyes turned red. He brought Shangguan Nings hands to his lips and kissed them with great force. He said in a low voice, I know, I know it all. Bite me if you are suffering, it may help you relieve some pain.
He said as he ced his arms over Shangguan Nings lips, offering her to bite it.
Shangguan Ning was unwilling to bite him. His wounds were still healing and he had stopped resting, just to take care of her. She was concerned about him and would not cause any more pain. If she really took a bite of his arm, she would probably rip it off because of the pains intensity.
She shook her head, forcing a weak smile and said, No, I am fine. Grandpa Mu said that after today, all will be fine. I can pull through, trust me.
Jing Yichen understood that she did not want to hurt him. He found Shangguan Ning to be silly.
How much did she love him that she did not want to hurt him even a little bit?
He lowered his head to kiss Shangguan Ning.
Maybe that was a way to distract her so she wouldnt suffer too much pain.
That was indeed a practical method for Shangguan Ning.
Jing Yichens kiss was gentle and lingering, full of concern and love, making Shangguan Ning feel happy.
It was not until she started panting did Jing Yichen let go of her.
Jing Yichen chuckled at the sight of Shangguan Nings bashfulness. His sweet girl still flushed very easily.
Shangguan Ning felt assured and safe with Jing Yichen next to her. She asked Jing Yichen about the time every now and then, trying to see how much time was left before the torture ended for her.
The stinging pain started to reduce at around 10 that night and Shangguan Ning let out a sigh of relief. It had been two days and two nights since she started feeling so much pain. She finally fell asleep at around one p.m.
But she slept fitfully because the pain kepting and going. She woke up every now and then.
It was not until noon when the pain reduced tremendously and she fell asleep with Jing Yichens arms around her.
When she woke up again, she found that she was lying on her bed at home.
There was no one around and Shangguan Ning sat up slowly on the bed. That pain had reducedrgely but it had not disappearedpletely. She was too feeble to do anything that required strength and was tired simply after she tried to sit up.
She let out a bitter smile, feeling that she had be a very weak and spoilt patient.
She sat on the bed for a while and was ready to go to the bathroom when she heard Jing Yichens gentle voice.
Come on son, lets drink some milk. It may not taste as good as your moms milk, yet it is full of nutrients. Also, I can tell that they taste almost the same, though your mothers milk tastes better. Try it.
Shangguan Ning chuckled while sitting on the bed. She felt a bit embarrassed.
She had not fed Jing Rui during these two days and her breasts had swelled up, making her ufortable.
She asked Jing Yichen to buy her a milk pump but he had turned down the idea. He had said calmly, Why are you ignoring the milk pump that is avable at home?
So, Jing Yichen had consumed all of Jing Ruis food for the past few days.
She had thought that the milk would cause some side effects, but Jing Yichen was totally fine. He even said that he was doing the poison test for their son.
The poison did not work on him, but he did look like someone who would want to take his sons food.
Shangguan Ning touched her breasts subconsciously and found that they were not swollen anymore. She understood that Jing Yichen had taken advantage of her again when she was fast asleep.
She put on the slippers, and walked towards the living room slowly where she found Jing Yichen holding Jing Rui in his arms. He was testing the temperature of the milk on the back of his hand and then started feeding Jing Rui in the correct posture.
Jing Rui was not particr about his meal. He drank the milk while hisrge eyes were staring at his father. He was probably wondering why his father was feeding him today.
Seeing him enjoying the food, Jing Yichen smiled and said in a low voice, You little boy, you eat everything. You are the most obedient boy I have ever met, just like your father!
Shangguan Ning burst outughing when she found him speak so highly of himself.
Hearing theugh, Jing Yichen looked up and turned towards her. He saw his wife standing there with a pale face. She looked much better than yesterday with a smiling face.
What are you doing off the bed?
Jing Yichen said as he put down the bottle and walked towards her with Jing Rui in his arms.
Jing Rui was in the middle of food when the bottle was suddenly gone. He started to seek the bottle, uttering a protesting sound.
As he turned around and saw the woman who fed him every day, he reached out for her, uttering an even louder sound.
Shangguan Ning understood that Jing Rui was asking her for milk. The little fellow was very smart and always passionate when it came to his hunger pangs. He was always trying to find a method to draw his mothers attention.
Jing Rui held her clothes tightly, looking at her, as if asking her to hold him. That made Shangguan Ning both amused and concerned.
Chapter 633 - A Family
Chapter 633: A Family
Jing Yichen patted his sons little bottom gently and said with displeasure, You have just been fed by me but now you are deserting me for your mother. I will not feed you any more!
Shangguan Ning chuckled. She wanted to hold her son, but as the strength ran out of her, she feared that she would drop Jing Rui. So in a small guilty voice, she said, Ruirui, I will hold you when I am well.
Post that, she lowered her head to kiss his cute little face. He stopped making noises and smiled at her, looking very happy to be kissed by his mother.
Seeing his smiling eyes that had turned into a moon, she felt her heart soften.
Her son was very obedient and understanding. He was going to be a very wonderful kid in future.
Jing Yichen kissed her smooth forehead and brought his free arm around her. He asked her in a low voice, Feeling better? Hungry? Want to eat something?
Shangguan Ning leaned her head against his broad shoulder and said in a low voice, I am not feeling well and dont feel like eating anything.
Her tone sounded spoilt as if she were a little girl who was asking for pampering from an adult.
With his wife in one arm and son in the other, Jing Yichen found his life to beplete. He indulged her by saying, You have to eat even if you dont want to. Grandpa Mu said that you need to take in enough nutrients. That is how you recover. Old Du is on the 6th floor. I will ask him toe up to make some dishes for you. Eat whatever you like, please.
Shangguan Ning was not in the mood to eat anything, but seeing Jing Yichen take care of her so carefully, she did not protest and nodded. Okay.
After exchanging a few words, Shangguan Ning lost the strength again. Refusing to be supported by Jing Yichen, she went to the bathroom alone.
When she finished washing herself up, she saw Jing Yichen sitting on the sofa, feeding Jing Rui again.
As the morning sun seeped through the window andnded on these two men, they looked as if having been ted with ayer of gold. It was a cozy and rxing moment. She hoped that their life would be like this henceforth.
Shangguan Ning had never expected that Jing Yichen would be so capable in taking care of children or feeding them.
He was a cold person who never showed a gentle face to anyone else apart from her. He never uttered an extra word or showed concern about others.
But as he was holding his son, he did not look anything but gentle.
Shangguan Ning smiled and realized that she had married a good man.
She got an idea and went into the bedroom to fetch the phone with which she took a picture of Jing Yichen feeding Jing Rui.
She was thinking that when Jing Rui grew up, she was going to show her son this picture, telling him how much his father loved him and how well he had taken care of him when he was a little boy.
Jing Yichen sensed that Shangguan Ning was taking a picture of him, so he smiled helplessly but did not stop her.
Shangguan Ning did not like taking pictures. She barely used cameras but she had picked up the habit of clicking pictures after Jing Rui was born.
She kept filming the way Jing Rui looked and behaved. She was recording his growing up time and the happy moments which the three of them shared together.
She often took pictures of him holding and ying with their son, and it was the first time for her to catch a moment when he was feeding him.
He patted his son gently and said in a teasing tone, Son, your mother is snapping so many pictures of ours. She can work as paparazzi now, and can support us if we run out of money in the future.
Jing Rui uttered a sound of agreement, making Jing Yichen burst intoughter.
After moving so much, Shangguan Ning had already started sweating. She had no strength to stand still any more. Despite the weak limbs though, she was feeling full of energy looking at her two boys.
She returned to the bedroom with a smile on the face and fell asleep again.
But soon, Jing Yichen woke her up to eat some food.
She stood up drowsily and saw Jing Rui curled in Jing Yichens arms, sucking his fingers and staring at her as if wondering if he should leave his father for her.
After some food, Shangguan Ning recovered a little bit, finally and held her son in her arms, whispering to him.
Pleased, Jing Rui kept expressing his pleasure by uttering weird sounds. His mother had no idea what he was saying and what was worse, his father soon took him away from her so he lost the chance of feeling his mothers warm arms.
Seeing him trying to reach out for Shangguan Ning, Jing Yichen understood that he did not want to leave her. He said with a smile, Alright, alright. Your mother is too weak right now to hold you. You are too well fed and have grown heavy. Time to sleep now, she can hold you when you wake up again.
Jing Yichen was not great at getting Jing Rui to sleep. Normally, Jing Rui would y a little bit before falling asleep after he was fed by Shangguan Ning.
But now, he was not in Shangguan Nings arms.
Jing Yichen took Jing Rui to his room and paced back and forth inside. He was just a few months old, and needed a lot of sleep. If he did not feel like sleeping right now, he would hold Jing Rui and speak with him.
It was said that talking with a young baby could help build an emotional bridge, and the child could learn to talk sooner.
Actually, Jing Rui already uttered some sounds that resembled mom or dad, because Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen taught him every day. Of course, he was not really saying any specific words yet.
Jing Rui seemed to like hearing his father talk. Whenever he heard Jing Yichens nice voice, he would follow suit. When Jing Yichen told him to say dad, he would also say dad or mom, although the words were not that clear.
Chapter 634 - In My Arms
Chapter 634: In My Arms
Jing Yichen wanted to keep teaching his son how to say mom and dad, but the nanny drove him out of the nursery to the living room.
The nanny felt that she was bing the best-paid nanny in the entire A City with the easiest job that offered the longest holiday time.
Jing Yichen had taken over almost all of the nannys work and she was left with nothing to do. She felt kind of guilty to be paid thousands of yuan a month without actually doing anything.
She had proposed getting a cut in the sry, but Shangguan Ning did not approve of that. She still gave her the sry based on the original standard.
The couple regarded their son as the apple of their eyes. Shangguan Ning took great care of Jing Rui and Jing Yichen also looked after him well. He got up more often than Shangguan Ning during the night to check if Jing Rui had gotten hungry or if he needed a diaper change.
The nanny was an honest and discreet woman who had been very careful in taking care of Jing Rui. She had been to many noble families to take care of little masters anddies. But none of the parents were as careful as Jing Yichen.
Most men had no idea about how to take care of their children and most of them did not have the willingness to take care of babies who were just a few months old. Men tended to think that women should focus upon taking care of all such matters. The noble, wealthy families men had no energy left to take care of babies, change their diapers, feed them or pamper them to sleep after leading a hectic life.
The nanny thought that Jing Yichen was a very responsible man. He might look cold and silent and scared people off but he was extremely nice towards his wife and son!
Jing Yichen had no idea what the nanny thought of him. He had only spent half an hour getting his son to sleep and that was making him feel proud.
He kissed his sons cheeks and tiptoed out of the babys room. He asked the nanny to guard Jing Rui before returning to the bedroom himself.
Shangguan Ning was rubbing her wet hair. She had not washed her hair for days. After gaining some strength post eating, she had gone to take a quick shower. But she didnt have any courage to look at herself in the mirror.
Jing Yichen took the towel from her hand and said calmly, Let me.
Shangguan Ning gave it to him without any protest, considering that she didnt have much strength left.
Jing Yichen wiped her hair for a few minutes and when it stopped dripping, he picked up the dryer, and went to work on drying her hair proficiently.
After that, hebed the long hair before picking her up and carrying her to the bed.
Just lie down. He is asleep. The nanny is with him. You can choose to talk or sleep with me. 100 yuan/minute for talking, ten times more for sleeping, alright?
Shangguan Ning chuckled at the sight of his serious face and said without hesitation, I have a lot of money. Come, sleep with me!
Jing Yichenughed at her words. Heid down next to Shangguan Ning, scooped her into his arms and tucked her forehead under his chin before saying, It is so nice to hold you in my arms.
Shangguan Ning understood that fear still lingered inside him after what happened a couple of days ago. He was not worrying about himself but about her, who might have suffered because of Tang Shunian.
She answered softly, It is so nice to be in your arms.
She moved her hand over his back and felt one of the unhealed wounds there.
She pulled up Jing Yichens shirt and saw his wound. She let out a sigh of relief when she saw it healing well. Then she reached out for his pants so as to check the wounds on his thighs.
Jing Yichen took hold of her cool hands and said in a threatening tone, Are you sure about this? You must be responsible for me after you remove my pants. If you are desiring for me physically, I, as your husband, can make that sacrifice for you.
Shangguan Ning felt helpless. She was just trying to check on his wounds. What did he mean by twisting her actions as if she was thirsting for him.
She had no intention to do that at all!
She had no strength to do that with him right now!
Shangguan Ning had to give up checking his thighs up and red at him. This is nder!
Jing Yichenughed and said softly, Alright, its not you, it is me, okay? I am really thirsty for that.
Shangguan Ning pinched hard on his waist and only stopped after hearing his crying of pain.
Jing Yichen pretended to be wronged and that amused Shangguan Ning. But she was still worried about his wound. The wound on his thigh had been very deep, all the way to the bone. It was impossible to have been cured within a couple of days.
You better go to the hospital for treatment. What are you doing at home? We have no doctor here. You might suffer more if there is any infection.
I am not that weak. It is just a small wound that has already started to heal. Jing Yichen did not care about the wounds. His recovery rate was fast. Four days had passed since that incident happened and his injuries were healing well.
It is not a good idea to stay at the hospital all the time. Home is the best and is more convenient for us. Mu Qinges to check on us every day, anyway. There is not much difference between staying at home or at the hospital.
Shangguan Ning knew that Jing Yichen hade home for her sake, because she needed to only rest rather than go through any treatment. She would recover better at home.
But Shangguan Ning was not happy making Mu Qing visit them so often.
Mu Qing must have owed you big in his previous life. Thats why he is tormented by you so badly in this life.
It seemed as if Mu Qing became a doctor truly for Jing Yichen. He needed to be avable for them all the time, and was at their service, be it at night or under bad weather. He held no grudge and worked diligently for them.
He was the most outstanding young man in A City who had gathered fame over the world. He was a prize-winning doctor and would have been the director of the Mus Hospital right now but for Zhao Anan.
Shangguan Ning was not d to see him being bullied by Jing Yichen every day.
Chapter 635 - Change
Chapter 635: Change
Jing Yichen did not think that there was anything wrong with his actions. He did not care if anyone apart from Shangguan Ning was busy or not.
Mu Qing does note here for free. He owed you before and he owes you now, as well. He is smart, and you dont have to feel sorry for him. What is more, it has been you who keeps courting his woman for him and that is a huge favor he owes you. Zhao Anan would nevere back to him if he was to do everything by himself!
Shangguan Ningughed seeing that he was offering so many reasons to justify his actions.
That evening, Zhao Anan hurried to their house.
She had just be the principal and stayed very busy throughout the day.
It was a totally different experience being a teacher versus a principal.
Teachers only needed to teach, and had time at hand when they did not have any sses scheduled. When Zhao Anan had been a teacher, she could go anywhere she wanted without being in the charge of anyone. She never cared about being promoted, so she had a great time.
But a principal had to do everything. She had constant meetings, seminars and had to read all professors material and needed to have in-depth information about the school. What if she was asked about the number of University of Xs students, teachers, subjects as well as other basic information. If she didnt know any of these things, she would be aughing stock.
She hade to University of X as the principal all of a sudden and got the position with her contacts. So people were respectful to her on the surface but behind her back, they were looking down at her.
Zhao Anan was quite annoyed about it. She swore that she was going to be a good principal and would make University of X an even better school than before so that those people would realize that her cousin had chosen a capable person!
With pressure came motivation. During the past few days, Zhao Anan had started to wake up before dawn and sleptte at night. She had the school material in her hands even when she was eating.
That surprised the Old Lady of the Zhao Family and Zhao Zhao very much. Zhao Anan had changed tremendously in such a short period of time.
She had been very jumpy and fickle since childhood and always had a short span of attention towards something. Had she not been clever, she would not have scored decently at school.
Zhao Anan realised that her grandmother and mother were surprised. But she did not care about them at this juncture. She left home early and returnedte every day, and she was really motivated to do well.
However, she had never paid attention to studies because of her personality. Now, she had to focus while reading and needed to memorize things every day. That made her miserable. Worse was that she had to paste a smile to her face while interacting with people and that tired her out. She had be much thinner during the past few days.
But no one had told her about Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen. It was not until today when two students fought over a girl on the campus that she got to know about it. When one student was taken away by the police, she got to know about the matter after calling Zheng Jing for help.
Shangguan Ning got quite startled at the sight of Zhao Anan when she saw her. She had lost so much weight. Her plump chin had turned pointed and her oval shaped face looked very pretty.
She was wearing a white shirt, ck coat and a skirt. She was also wearing a pair of ck high-heels which she would never have touched earlier.
Shangguan Ning gasped!
She had asked Jing Yichen to arrange a job for Zhao Anan so that she could take a high position somewhere and learn about social manners. But this was a huge change for her!
She would not have recognized her if they ran into each other on the street.
Anan, what are you wearing a skirt for? Didnt you say that you cant walk with a skirt and what about the shoes? Are these yours?
Shangguan Ning meant to ask what had happened to Zhao Anan that she became so thin. But she ended up asking about her shoes and skirt, instead.
That was not her fault, because losing weight was a normal thing but skirts and high-heels went totally against her personality.
Shangguan Nings question made Zhao Anan return to her original persona, rather than behave like a serious and solemn looking principal.
Zhao Anan kicked off the shoes and sat down by the bedside bare feet. Sheined in an annoyed voice. Terrible shoes, which stupid person invented high heels to torment women? I have got blisters on my feet after just a few days. So much pain!
Shangguan Ning lowered her head and saw that her pretty feet had big blisters and red traces alongside the toes.
Shangguan Ning felt a bit concerned. She brought out the medicine and dabbed it on the wounds for her. She said with a smile, Then what are you wearing them for? You were lying about not liking them.
Zhao Anan felt very d to see Shangguan Ning dabbing the medicine on her. Her best friend was the most reliable person of all.
If she got to know that this reliable friend was the one who caused the situation to be like this, she would get very annoyed!
But as per Zhao Anan, it was Jing Yichen who arranged this hard task for her because he did not want her to sit idle.
She withdrew the feet and rolled her eyes. I dont like high heels! I managed to find one pair with rtively shorter heels. I really wonder how those old women run about wearing such heels.
The medicine felt cool on her feet and the scorching pain also reduced a bit. Zhao Ananid down on Shangguan Nings bed andined non-stop.
When I first went to school, I wore pants and sneakers, but some old spinstersughed at me. When I went to attend some meetings at the Bureau, I was picked on there, as well. All of them were so annoying. They all looked down at me. They wouldnt stop picking on me.
Shangguan Ningughed and pinched her face. Principal Zhao, maybe it is because you are too pretty!
No, not my face, but my background! They are jealous of me bing a principal at such a young age.
Chapter 636 - Principal Zhao
Chapter 636: Principal Zhao
Zhao Anan was not dumb. She knew that those people who were picking on her were not concerned with her looks. What was more, she did not find herself that attractive, either.
Bah, I know everything! They gossiped about me behind my back, saying that I am the mistress of some rich guy. Damn those blind people! Just because they are peoples mistresses, they think that I am one too? My cousin is capable of everything and they do not have one someone like him on their side. They are just jealous. They are so terrible professionally and are still doing well in the office. Of course they are using some other ways to stay in their positions. Shame on them!
They like picking on me, so I will make sure they cant find any fault in me. Those old women keep gossiping about me not looking like a principal. So I want to show them that I can wear skirts and high-heels too. I will prove it to them that I can!
Shangguan Ning finally understood that Zhao Anan had been stimted.
They shared the same point of view on this. Both of them hated trouble and liked to keep things simple.
Zhao Anan must have gotten so annoyed by those pestering words that she decided to put on high-heels and skirts to shut them up, once and for all.
She was the Principal of University of X, and by that virtue, almost a public figure in A City. There were many peoples eyes on her now. Not everyone knew or understood who the real Zhao Anan was.
Some might provoke her to see what Zhao Anans supporters would do, so that they could find out who was behind Zhao Anan.
In their eyes, she must have a very powerful supporter because of which she became the principal before even turning 30, making the previous Principal Min forced to retire without a word ofint.
Zhao Anan had been fired once by the University of X, and that was supposed to be the biggest stain in a principals career. But even with such a big ck mark, she was still able to return to the school as the principal. In their eyes, she must have formed all kinds of connections in A City.
Chief Wang of the Education Bureau was very friendly towards her, and regarded her as his peer. He did not show any arrogance towards her and often invited her to his home for dinner.
Chief Wang had always been an honest and just man, and lived happily with his wife and a child. Had it not been because of that fact, people might have suspected that he had some ill intention towards Zhao Anan.
The other three universities in the city were inferior to University of X. Irrespective, Chief Wang had never disyed such a friendly attitude towards any principal in any of the schools, including the elementary school, or any of the high schools.
When Principal Min was holding the position, Chief Wang used to greet him only with a nod. He had never used a friendly tone with him as he did with Zhao Anan.
But people did not realise all of this and kept picking on her. Only a few of them understood that something was going on and were cautious.
Zhao Anan was not good at dealing with people, but she was no longer as impulsive as before. Since she had decided to be a qualified principal, she would behave rationally and disy maturity.
Zhao Anan did not care much about Chief Wang, and had no intentions to visit his home for dinner.
Zhao Anan looked at her skirt sadly and then at the high heels. She groaned. Those people are too annoying. I need my pants and sneakers, I really do!
On formal asions, women tended to dress up in formal suits and pants were considered to be casual. All firstdies, wives of the presidents in any country would only be wearing skirts or dresses during their formal visits.
Zhao Anan might not be a firstdy, but she was a principal and wearing pants would not make her look formal or serious.
Sneakers would not work either, even t-heels would not be proper. When dressed professionally, she needed a pair of high-heels to make her look powerful.
Shangguan Ning consoled her with a smile. You can wear whatever you want when you are off work. Also, the summer break ising soon and you can rx then.
That was the good point about educational professionals. They had the luxury of long holidays. Zhao Anan finally became a bit happy. True! I have been working so hard that I forgot that I have a long breaking up. Haha, great! I am the principal, so I can make the holiday term longer. What about three months?
Honestly... had it really been a good idea to make Zhao Anan the principal?
If she made summer holidayst three months and winter holiday equally long, then there would be fewer than 100 days left for sses after excluding weekends and other holidays. The students would definitely like it but the parents would not agree.
But in Zhao Anans opinion, holidays were too short, so she sighed. What if the holiday and the work periods are switched, or make it one month of work and one month of holiday? Who on earth has made the current rules? They are ruining the future of the country.
Principal Zhao, you are going over the top now. One month of holiday is already long enough, stop dreaming. Its time to wake up.
Shangguan Ning was nearly speechless. This woman was such a carefree principal!
Zhao Anan woke up from her beautiful dream,ined a little about her work and how much she had to learn at the moment. She alsoined that her cousin had set her up and then she remembered that she must ask Shangguan Ning about the recent urings.
What happened to you? You look so weak and pale just now...
She approached Shangguan Ning and asked in a low and flirty voice. Can it be because my cousin doesnt want to stop doing that with you? If something is wrong with his kidney. He can try some Chinese medicine, how does that sound?
What was she talking about? Such shameless words!
Shangguan Ningughed in annoyance and pinched her ears. Stop thinking about
dirty things. You are a principal now!
Zhao Anan cried loudly. Oh no, stop, my sister-inw, my ears are rare and if you break one off, I will have only one left. Have mercy on me!
But her cries had drawn the real wolf towards them.
Jing Yichen opened the door and saw Zhao Anan had draped herself over Shangguan Nings thigh. He frowned and snapped. Jing Rui has just fallen asleep, another loud noise and you will be tossed out of here. Also, your clothes are not clean. Stay away from Ning. She is too weak right now.
Chapter 637 - Getting Smart
Chapter 637: Getting Smart
That was the only excuse that he coulde up with right now. He was definitely not going to tolerate her rowdy behavior.
Jing Yichen did not like when someone touched him. But he hated it when anyone tried to touch Shangguan Ning. Only he could hold her, no one else could, not even Zhao Anan.
He started thinking whether he should stop Zhao Anan from visiting them any more.
Zhao Anan rolled her eyes speechlessly. Her cousin was indeed a wife controller!
He had be so possessive towards his wife that he did not even allow his own cousin to touch her. How incredible!
She had taken advantage of Shangguan Ning many times earlier. She used to kiss her, hug her and sweep her into her arms. If Jing Yichen got to know about it, he would probably have her killed.
But it was his wife who was bullying her at this moment!
Shangguan Ning had used great force in pinching her ear and it must have turned red. But Jing Yichen ignored that and lectured her instead. He evenined about her being unclean. She took a shower every day. Honestly, was she his cousin or not?
Alright, she had forgotten about the little boy at home and made some loud noises. But he should not have been so fierce towards her.
Zhao Anan keptining inwardly, but she stood up from Shangguan Nings bed and did not lean against her thigh any more.
Else Jing Yichen would surely drive her out of the house.
Shangguan Ning felt quite helpless looking at the situation. She took hold of Zhao Anans hand and said to Jing Yichen, She will get frightened if you keep yelling at her.
Jing Yichen said calmly, If she is timid, then no one else is brave in the world.
Seeing Zhao Anan seated properly, he turned around in satisfaction and walked away.
Jing Yichen had just left when Zhao Ananid down upon Shangguan Nings thigh again and took hold of her waist, rubbing herself against her as if she wanted to take advantage of her.
Shangguan Ning chuckled when she felt tickled.
Zhao Anan thought that she wasughing at her being so obedient in front of Jing Yichen, so she snapped. What are youughing at? My cousin looked as if he was going to eat me up. How scary! I thought that he would turn a bit gentle after he got married. Not only did he fail to do so but got even fiercer. He is such a heartless man. He left me alone after throwing me to the wolves. Because of him, I have turned so frail. Look at me. My arms have be so thin, I cant be a good fighter any more.
Aha, it doesnt sound right for a principal to get into a fight, anyways. People might think that University of X has turned into a gang.
Shangguan Ning was teasing Zhao Anan, purposefully.
Zhao Anan started to create a fuss but remembered that Shangguan Ning had not given her a proper answer to the question which she had asked.
All Zheng Jing had told her was that Jing Yichen and his man, Tiger had been seriously injured and Shangguan Ning had not been feeling well for the past few days and that they had been in the hospital recently.
But when Zhao Anan asked him for details, it seemed as if he were trying to hold something back. So she hurried to Shangguan Nings house and confronted her instead.
There were very few people who could injure Jing Yichen. If all of them were injured this time, then that man must have been a capable enemy.
Honestly, no one told her anything!
Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichens mouths were sealed, so were her mothers. Mu Qing had not even thought of informing her, that bastard!
If she had not turned to Zheng Jing identally for help, maybe no one would have told her what had happened even at her death.
Was she that unreliable? Was she that impulsive? Why was she kept away from the important things? Could it be because she behaved childishly and was never serious?
Bah! She was a smart person! And she was going to be very capable soon. Then she was not going to slow them down and would be an asset to everyone around her.
Zhao Anan took hold of Shangguan Nings thigh as she said, What happened to you, my cousin and Zheng Jing? Tell me, I have been worried the entire day.
Shangguan Ning had not expected that Zhao Anan would still remember this topic. She thought that she had managed to distract her.
Zhao Anan normally forgot about the previous topic as long as she was distracted.
But it seemed that she did care about them, otherwise she would not have remembered about it.
But Shangguan Ning did not want to tell Zhao Anan too much. Sometimes it was not a good thing to know a lot, especially for someone like Zhao Anan, who could barely keep a secret.
So she said calmly, Nothing much, it is just that Yichen found the man who had set him up many years ago. He had nned to catch him but that man was well prepared, and we almost lost. I am just tired and overwhelmed. I sat with Ruirui in my arms for the entire night when he was not at home, and I barely ate anything so I fell sick.
Shangguan Nings words were not convincing, and Zhao Anan, who might be a bit slow, could still tell the difference.
She said with displeasure, Tell me in detail! Can that man be ordinary who managed to injure my cousin and Zheng Jing? I am not that stupid! Who would dare to hurt my cousin? Anyone who is capable of hurting him in the past, has died. Where did this persone from?
Oh, so Zhao Anan could not be fooled any more?
Shangguan Ning found it weird. Since when did Zhao Anan turn so smart? Could it have been because of her position as the principal?
She thought for a while and told her about Tang Shunian. Zhao Anan not only knew Tang Yun but also knew about the ident Jing Yichen went through eleven years ago.
What was more, Tang Shunian and Zhao Anan had met over a blind date and if she did not know about Tang Shunians real identity, she could possibly be used by him in the future.
After hearing what Shangguan Ning said, Zhao Anan gasped!
Tang Shunian, that bitchs brother?!
Yes, he and Tang Yun were siblings, but they were not that close.
So Yu Mo of B City is him? He is a killer and a mentally disturbed person?!
Shangguan Ning forced herself to nod. Yes, he likes tormenting people, a very scary man! If you ever run into him in the future, run away from him. He has hidden himself at the moment and can attack any of us.
Oh man, I am done for!
Zhao Anan groaned with cold sweat all over her body.
Chapter 638 - Power and Responsibility
Chapter 638: Power and Responsibility
Shangguan Ning thought that Zhao Anan was surprised, so she consoled her instantly. Dont worry. He may be injured right now and cant do anything bad at the moment. He may not look for you so dont worry. Yichen will surely catch him.
But her constion did not work. With a bitter face, Zhao Anan said regretfully, Oh, my dear sister-inw, what you dont know is that when we were on blind date that day, I had no idea who he was. So I put a de on his neck, and tried to rob him!
Shangguan Nings eyes widened. Rob him?!
How could Zhao Anan be so impulsive?
Also, what was she doing robbing her blind date? Had she been driven mad by poverty?
Also, I turned him down with all kinds of excuses. I said that he was old and had a child. I gave him no face! Do you think that he would hold that grudge and kill me when he gets the chance? Oh no, what should I do? I am so done for! It was my first blind date and I ran into such a maniac. I must hide myself, I must!
Shangguan Ning turned speechless.
This was indeed Zhao Anans style!
And Tang Shunian would surely take revenge, because he was so narrow-minded. It would be normal for him to take revenge.
But he did not have time to care about Zhao Anan right now who was not important in therger scheme of things. His priority would be getting even with Jing Yichen if he had the energy. Hence, Zhao Anan was currently safe.
Shangguan Ning patted Zhao Anans back and said with a smile, Alright, alright, dont worry, you are not that important in his eyes at the moment. He would not run around right now. Just take care of yourself! Or, let your cousin get you some more bodyguards.
Zhao Anan found it to be a good idea, so she wiped her tears in an exaggerated manner. You are a good sister-inw. I was right to hook you up with my cousin. Noone else would be concerned about me like you are.
Shangguan Ning raised her eyebrows. Ha? So I was a part of your n? Bah, Zhao Anan, I dont want to be your friend anymore!
Hearing that she had used the wrong words, she kept moving her hand over Shangguan Nings arm and forced herself to smile sweetly and shyly. Dont! Mymand over Chinese was never good. Dont take my words so seriously!
Shangguan Ning was joking. She could never be angry at Zhao Anan. She changed the topic and started asking her about her life as the principal.
Is it better to be a principal than a teacher?
Zhao Anan said passionately, Of course being a teacher is better. It is just a matter of giving lectures. Everything apart from invigting a ss and grading papers is great!
Shangguan Ningughed. It seemed that withoutparison, she would never have realized how happily she had lived earlier.
Zhao Anan used toin about being a teacher when she had to face so many students. She did not like seeing such a huge crowd, so she always got annoyed when she got interrupted by some students.
Now that she was finding her previous days to be rxing, it meant that she was under huge pressure at the moment.
Of course a teacher has less work load, but havent you forgotten that we as teachers can get fired whenever the principal gets annoyed? We have no rights to do anything. I think that being a principal is better, because you can fire anyone!
Zhao Anan, of course, had not forgotten about it. She nodded her head. Yes, yes, I have great power now. Many peoplee to my doorstep with presents. Min was a bastard! He could have kept us back then easily. But he fired us, instead. That damned man deserves to die!
Zhao Anans superior living style made sure that she never liked any of the presents given to her, but that did not mean that everyone could be like her, turning down the presents.
Principal Min must have epted expensive presents back then, so as to fire them without hesitation.
Shangguan Ning also missed being a teacher, because that was the rare period of peace after she came back from the foreign country. That was also when she got to know Zhao Anan and Jing Yichen.
But her life had changed now. She had a husband and a son to look after. Those who needed to be punished, had been punished, and she was feeling calm on the inside.
She mentioned the earlier events because she was trying to remind Zhao Anan that being a teacher might have advantages, but then so did being a principal. She had finally found a firm position in the society.
Power was a great thing, which many people tried to gain.
Zhao Anan was not obsessed with power, but it was better to have some than none.
Also, Principal Min was now her subordinate. He must be holding a lot of grudges against her.
Zhao Anan started tough happily the next moment. Oh, by the way, the most delightful thing after I be a principal is that the bastard has to greet me politely whenever he meets me. But I ignore him all the time and even pick on him. I cast doubts upon his decisions. His face is so twisted every day! Poor Min.
Shangguan Ningughed as well. Zhao Anan was not someone who could be bullied easily. She might not be deviousy, but she always had enough ideas up her sleeve to trouble people. She was born to think like this. Principal Min must be suffering a great deal right now.
Serves him right! Zhao Anan cursed. That old bastard has done a great deal of immoral stuff behind our back. He not only sleeps around with teachers, but flirts with young girls as well! He lies to the girl students that he can guarantee jobs to them after graduation and they all fall for his trap!
Shangguan Ning had already heard about this news when she was a teacher but Principal Min had a powerful backing at the time. He had refused to admit to all charges and those girls who had been fooled, had no way out. That was why Min had remained in the position all the way until now.
Haha, I am not scared of him, though everyone else might be. He has no way to deal with me, even though he has eyes upon me every day. I am very discreet.
Shangguan Ning looked at Zhao Anan in astonishment. So she had learnt to be discreet now after just a couple of days?
Chapter 639 - Donation

It seemed that making Zhao Anan the principal had been the right decision.
Seeing Shangguan Nings astonishment, Zhao Anan could not help but feel a bit proud. Miss. Shangguan, dont look at me in such an admiring way. I may be conceited!
Shangguan Ning replied with a smile. Principal Zhao is an excellent principal and it is quite normal for me to admire you. I think that you are bing very charming. I had thought that you would be having a terrible time at school, but now it seems that I dont have to worry about anything!
Pleased, Zhao Anan said happily, Did you know that these days, I get up very early and sleep reallyte? I have been so upied! But I have learnt a great deal, and the assistant which my cousin gave me, is so talented. He knows everything and everybody. With his help, I end up making almost no mistakes!
Shangguan Ning encouraged her. Yes, you have done well till now and you will do even better with the passage of time. Everything starts with difficulty yet it will turn better when you are used to it.
Zhao Anan, who had been cautiously optimistic, was not so d this time. She said worriedly, I dont think so! Being a principal is such a tiring job. Now I understand why most principals and directors are bald. They are simply too tired. That Min is bing fatter and his head has started to grow hair now that he is off the position. Do you think that I will be bald as well, if I continue to be the principal for two more years? How scary!
Shangguan Ning was just imagining how Zhao Anan would look with a bald head and she burst intoughter.
Seeing her best friendughing at her, Zhao Anan looked at her fiercely. Stopughing! If I ever turn bald, I will also make you go bald!
Zhao Anan had beenining about school life, but Shangguan Ning could tell that she was doing well.
The school had many students and as a principal, she needed to take on many responsibilities. And that was a pressure she had never felt before but it was helping her to mature fast.
She had never done any longsting tasks until now.
Zhao Zhao and the Old Lady of the Zhao Family had always thought that Zhao Anan would never take any responsibilities, and hence, they didnt train her to take up a high position. They simply allowed Zhao Anan to do something inconsequential, so that even if she made a mistake or gave up on something, there would not be any serious consequences.
Even she had not dared to make her a principal. What if the school was ruined? The childrens future would be ruined too, despite whatever money they offered aspensationter.
Only Jing Yichen did not care about it. Even if Zhao Anan tore down the school, he would still stay calm and unemotional.
Shangguan Ning and Zhao Anan were babbling in the bedroom while Jing Yichen fed Jing Rui the milk bottle, put him to sleep and then went to his study to deal with office matters.
Jing Yichen had not ceased dealing with Jingsheng Enterprise these days, but was only looking at urgent matters. Still, there was a great amount of workload to handle. Thanks to his in-depth knowledge of the enterprise, he finished everything fast.
He had many things to deal with today, and because of his fast recovery, it all went smoothly.
Jingsheng Enterprise had been focussed upon doing charity, and he approved one of the projects about donating 200 million to the society.
But his condition was that the donation would go to the education side, so that the poor children could attend school and the excellent students with poor backgrounds could get the benefit. He also demanded that schrship be established at University of X so that all the poor students could be exempted from tuition fees and enter there. Any excellent student could get a schrship and be provided with the chance to study abroad.
Jing Yichen had put his focus on school this year for the sake of Zhao Anan.
Many poor children studied harder than rich kids. They had excellent grades although they might not have a wide horizon. If more diligent students could appear at University of X, then the level of the school would rise, and Zhao Anan, as the principal would also gain enough fame.
Jingsheng Enterprise made donations every year, sometimes to the disaster-stricken area, sometimes to the development of outskirts. Most of the orphanages and elders homes had also been donated by Jingsheng Enterprise. It was the first time for the enterprise to donate to University of X.
There were several significant coborations these days between Jis Enterprise and Jingsheng Enterprise. Jis Enterprise was under the absolute control of Ji Bo and with the help of Jingsheng Enterprise, its stock had started rising and the business was getting back to normal.
But Jis Enterprise had lost arge number of talented employees and clients and that was a kind of loss which could not be made up within a short period of time.
Ji Bo would have be very annoyed in the olden days, and he would have tried hard to raise Jis Enterprises speed of improvement. But now, he was not that ambitious and had no ns to exceed Jingsheng Enterprise.
He understood the distance between himself and Jing Yichen, clearly. It was all due to Jing Yichens effort that The Ji Family was recovering well at the moment.
Jing Yichen had no interest in controlling The Ji Family, but he was not going to allow them to exceed his own family. He was not kind-hearted enough to help Jis Enterprise without any personal reasons.
Therefore, he did not do any such coboration with Jis Enterprise, and made some conditions stricter. In this way, he was able to guarantee that Jingsheng Enterprise was always in the advantageous status.
The following day, Zhao Anan learnt that Jingsheng Enterprise had made a donation to University of X.
The donation caused a sensational effect in the entire school and the city, because the amount was way too vast. It had topped all the donation amounts which University of X had received till date!
Even newspapers and TV were promoting this news, so Jingsheng Enterprise got some publicity and so did University of X!
Within a week after the new principal took office, arge amount of donation was delivered to school. People understood clearly that Zhao Anan, who was too young to be a principal, had a huge empire behind her back!
Chapter 640 - Enemies
Chapter 640: Enemies
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Zhao Anans face was full of delight.
Dressed in a formal outfit and wellbed hair, she was shaking hands politely with the representatives of Jingsheng Enterprise. She signed the contract calmly but her heart was full of emotions.
It was a great deal of money which her cousin had donated to the school. He had splurged so much just for her sake!
She was a poor principal who needed to rob others of their money but her school was so rich!
Couldnt she get some bit from it too?
Grandmother had kept a tight leash on her and gave her no pocket money. If she had not snatchedsome money from Zheng Jing a few days ago, she would not have been able to even afford a meal.
Of course, none of this was important. She would always be able to get money if she wanted. What was more, her sry was going to be transferred to her in a few days and then, she would have plenty to spend!
What mattered right now was the person who came to sign the donation papers on behalf of Jingsheng Enterprise!
Normally, it would be the Public rtions departments job to look after the charity projects of Jingsheng Enterprise.
Liang Fushi was the Deputy President of the enterprise, the leader of the highest rank in the Public rtions department. But Liang Fushi was always busy, so he never attended any low ranking formal asion.
The Director of Public rtions department had been expected to handle this task.
Unfortunately, however, the Director had a very big fight with her husband the night before and her face bore scratch marks. She had been crying for the entire night and her eyes were swollen. Hence, she had asked her most trustworthy subordinate, Mi Xiaoxiao, the Deputy Director of Public rtions department to do the needful.
Mi Xiaoxiao was also dressed in a formal outfit, a ck overcoat with skirt, which was the standard uniform of Jingsheng Enterprise. She had a white blouse tucked inside the skirt primly and her hair was tied up in a knot, showing her long and elegant neck.
She talked formally and politely. Her face looked charming and elegant, not at all resembling the lustful woman whom Zhao Anan had seen earlier.
The top managers of the school, who were supposed to receive the delegations of Jingsheng Enterprise, all looked very serious, yet all of them were sneaking peeks at Mi Xiaoxiao.
They had never expected that such a beautiful and elegantdy woulde to deliver the donation.
Talking with her was such a pleasure!
Zhao Anan got so annoyed that she almost crushed her teeth.
This woman was so artificial. She was an employee of Jingsheng Enterprise and held such a high position. How could there be such a pretentious woman working at Jing Yichenspany?
When no one was paying attention, she threw a provocative look at Zhao Anan when she was shaking her hands, then she said generously, Principal Zhao is so young and sessful. I am sure that University of X will be enhanced to a higher degree under your direction! Be sure to get your excellent graduates to work at ourpany. Jingsheng Enterprise is always very interested in talent, that is why we donated so much money to the school. Happy coboration!
Seeing her fake expression, Zhao Anan really wanted to smash the contract upon Mi Xiaoxiaos exquisite face!
However, she was not allowed to do so. Mi Xiaoxiao was here on behalf of Jingsheng Enterprise. If she pped her, then it meant that she was pping Jing Yichen. Even if Mi Xiaoxiao had not been a part of Jingsheng Enterprise but any otherpany, she still could not have created any conflicts with her, otherwise no one would give donations to their school any more.
So Zhao Anan had to press down all of her anger and smile at her brightly.
She could put on a show, too!
She was a principal now, so of course she needed to learn how to be an actress!
She could tell the important from the unimportant. Although she wanted to strangle Mi Xiaoxiao at the moment, she was still showing hospitality to her as if she had run into her own sister!
Thanks for your words. We will work hard and cultivate excellent talents for the country and serve the society. Thank you so much for your support. It has always been the students dream to work at Jingsheng Enterprise. Happy coboration!
Zhao Anan had learnt tomunicate with people in an official way, and she was forced to practise such words repeatedly every single day, so she was quite good at it now.
Mi Xiaoxiao looked a bit surprised. Since when did Zhao Anan be so mature?
Just a few days ago, she was an irritable girl and now she turned so graceful and sensible?
This was not like her at all!
Also, when did she be the principal of University of X?
Mi Xiaoxiao had once heard from Shangguan Ning that she and Zhao Anan had been fired by the old principal, so... was Zhao Anan here to take revenge?
She thought that it was a risky proposition for Zhao Anan to have be a principal.
Zhao Anan was a very careless woman. Even if she might be behaving herself after taking up the position, she still could not control such a big school in the long term.
Mi Xiaoxiao was right, because Zhao Anan, at this moment, truly, wanted to pick a fight with her.
Shangguan Ning knew about the donation, but obviously, she had not known about Mi Xiaoxiaos presence at the school. If she knew, she would not have allowed Mi Xiaoxiao to conduct the transaction.
Mi Xiaoxiao was an employee of Jingsheng Enterprise, and that would make Zhao Anan suspicious.
But Shangguan Ning had overestimated Zhao Anans brain. When she saw Mi Xiaoxiao, she got so annoyed that she forgot about her identity.
Shangguan Ning did not think that the donation was a waste.
It was because she found the cause to be of great significance. Apart from helping Zhao Anan at school, the donation could help numerous poor families too.
She had been helping children who could not go to school and was doing that much before she got to know Jing Yichen. She knew these children far better than Jing Yichen and Zhao Anan did.
Many children truly craved education and some high schoolers who had excellent grades but little money had to quit school, to work because of the tuition fees.
She was not a saint, but if she could be of some help, she would always try her best. She had always received help from some kind-hearted people in her life.
When she first left home and went abroad, she had been confused. A senior student sharing the same dormitory with her often took her for a walk outside the campus. They did not know each other well, but her hospitality had given her warmth and that was how Shangguan Ning picked up ying tennis again. The senior student had given her a lot of encouragement.

Jing Yichen had not gone to work during the past few days but stayed at home with Shangguan Ning, worried about her recovery. He spent the remaining time teaching Jing Rui to talk. He was patient and attentive, and Shangguan Ning found herself not as capable.
He was feeding Jing Rui and changing his diaper, helping him shower in such a proficient way that the nanny did not have much left to do.
Shangguan Ning teased him. You can be a very skilled nanny!
Jing Yichen was very proud of it. I must not regret not taking care of my baby. I must do my best for his growth.
At night, Jing Yichen read stories to Jing Rui and pampered him to sleep. Jing Rui might not understand a thing, yet his father was very interested in telling bedtime stories. He even held his sons hands, teaching him how to write.
When Jing Rui fell asleep, Jing Yichen took a shower and went to bed.
Oh, now you finally put down your son? I thought that you would spend the night with him!
Shangguan Ning sounded sour, making Jing Yichenugh.
Baby, you are not jealous of our son right? If you like me so much, why not show it to me? Go and take shower, and lets meet in bed!
But before she made it to the bed, they met in the bathroom.
Shangguan Ning had only one pantie left as she said both annoyedly and bashfully. Didnt you say that we should meet in bed, instead? You have showered already, get out now!
But I am here! My clothes are all wet. Do you think that I am someone who would give up halfway?
Jing Yichen did not care if they were doing it in bed or in the bathroom. She was his woman and he could do it with her wherever he wanted. Also, if they did it in the bathroom, the fun was enhanced and Shangguan Ning could reach the climax much faster.
The bathroom was full of mist and an intoxicating scent surrounded them. The waters temperature was mild but Shangguan Ning found it a bit too hot today and her body turned pink.
Shangguan Ning leaned against Jing Yichen as if she had no strength. If he had not taken hold of her waist, she would have lost her bnce. She was shivering in Jing Yichens arms.
After they finished with it, Jing Yichen did not pester his woman any more. She had just recovered and she must not do too much exercise, otherwise she would have difficulty getting off the bed.
He was feeling satisfied right now, especially when he saw Shangguan Nings white skin covered with the small strawberries which he had nted. He smiled brightly.
Jing Yichen whispered in Shangguan Nings ear with his low and sexy voice. Swelling?
He blew warm air in Shangguan Nings ear that both her ears turned red instantly.
He was being so flirty, making Shangguan Ning blush.
Her breasts were swollen because Jing Yichen had not pumped out the milk for her today after spending so much time taking care of Jing Rui.
But Shangguan Ning did not dare to say it loud!
She shook her head with a red face and said, No, no, lets just get out of here!
Jing Yichen pinched her face as a punishment and said with a low voice, It is not good to lie. What about letting me take a sip?
Shangguan Ning pinched his waist. This man was being so flirty these days!
Shut up and no more talking. You are being so indecent!
I have decided that I need to drink whatever our son cant finish, sounds ok?
Jing Yichen pushed Shangguan Ning to the marble wall that was slippery, and the couples bodies became tangled with each other.
Shangguan Ning did not dare move in case something more would happen. She truly had no strength left.
She bit her lips. No, Ruirui will finish all the food, nothing will remain for you!
I am so nice to our son. He will definitely share some of his food with me. You have no say in this.
Jing Yichens hands were groping all over her beautiful curves, forcing Shangguan Ning to give him what he wanted.
Shangguan Ning got so shy and her face turned red.
Honestly, you are so shameless!
Howe did this man turn so indecent after they got married?
Now he was asking her for milk! Shangguan Ning felt acutely embarrassed.
But she had underestimated how cheeky Jing Yichen could get. He would never let go when he could get something good out of her. He was an extremely skilled negotiator.
What about our son getting milk powder whilst I get the milk. I think he prefers milk powder with different vours. He has been fed up with your milk which only has one taste.
Shangguan Ning felt helpless. She bit his lips and red at him and said in a threatening tone, No more of this nonsense! I need to sleep now!
But what she did not realise was that her look was not intimidating but full of lust. Her eyes looked gorgeously inviting, making his heart skip a beat.
Jing Yichen just could not help but kiss her for a long time before releasing her and saying in a low voice. Nope, before the deal ispleted, you are not allowed to sleep. I will keep youpany until you approve of the deal.
A confident smile hovered over his handsome face, and then he took hold of Shangguan Ning and showered with her despite her disagreement.
Shangguan Ning just could not stand being flirted with in this manner. After a short while, she felt hot all over again.
She took a bite at Jing Yichens shoulders helplessly and said in a low voice, Alright then, I approve of the deal.
Jing Yichen smiled proudly, took a towel and dried her up and used another clean towel to wrap her up, carrying her out of the bathroom into the bedroom.
Shangguan Ning had arms around his neck as she said in a low voice, My breasts are swollen, help me.
Jing Yichens profound eyes were suddenly full of fire as he said in a low voice, Yes, madam!
He felt that it had been a wise decision that he did not buy Shangguan Ning a milk pump.
Otherwise she would have definitely used the pump and not him, whenever she felt her breasts swell up.

The following morning when Shangguan Ning woke up, she found Jing Yichen still lying next to her. She asked him drowsily. Why are you here rather than at work?
Jing Yichen pinched her cute nose and said with a smile, You liked me so muchst night and now you are driving me away? Baby, you are so ruthless! Didnt I do a good job yesterday? What about trying it once again?
Before he could finish his words, Shangguan Ning covered his mouth with her hands. Shut up, dont bully me any more even if you dont want to go to work.
Jing Yichen moved her hands and said mildly, Alright, alright, lets get up and eat breakfast now.
After one night, Shangguan Nings breasts had swelled up again. Jing Yichen understood it clearly that she was ufortable.
Suddenly he brightened up and said with a naughty smile, Oh, it seems that I will have a good breakfast now.
Shangguan Ning ignored him, and got up to wash herself.
Jing Yichen was still sitting in the bed, happy to see his beautiful wife walking away.
He was not going to work deliberately. Tang Shunians issue had not been solved and he did not want Shangguan Ning to stay at home alone, taking care of the child.
Lu had been looking for Tang Shunian based on the traces he left behind.
But Jing Yichen hadnt heard anything from her yet so he understood that Lu had not yet found him.
Tang Shunian was very sneaky. He was not going to expose himself so easily. Instead, he may try andy a trap for her.
But Lu was capable enough not to fall into the trap.
...
Lu had not undertaken a killing mission in a long time.
She was a calm, and persistent top-notch killer who feared no difficulty. She was used to killing people and had amassed arge amount of wealth from it.
To some degree, she had used others lives to get her own going, at least during the beginning years of her days as a killer.
She was actually protecting herself when she was out to kill Tang Shunian.
She owed the Jing Family way too much, to both Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Yichen, who had never asked anything in return for the favors they had done for her. Hence, she had volunteered to kill Tang Shunian.
It was just killing a man. That was all what she was capable of.
It was well lit in the B City mall. Several customers were roaming around, trying to pick whatever they would like to take home.
The underground stands had a lower rent than that above the ground, so the things here were priced cheaply as well. Many ordinary people liked shopping here.
Last night, Lu had followed Tang Shunian to this ce but lost track of him.
Lu could hear and see better than others and could be very fast. She had a sharp sense of smelling too, so normally, she would not lose the target.
But she ran into a problem when she reached the underground mall.
She found four versions of Tang Shunian!
The four men looked exactly the same in every way. The body shape, the height, the clothes and even the perfume was the same. They looked very simr to each other.
Lu could catch and kill two at her speed, but then the other two would surely run away.
But that was not the key point. The problem was that Lu just could not be sure which one of them or if one of them was the real Tang Shunian!
She had read up about Tang Shunian, and had even met him once in the underground kingdom. But she only caught a nce of him when the door was opened. She did not really have a clear picture of him in her head.
Lu had conducted many different tasks, and 99% of them were aplished only by seeing pictures and material. But she had never missed a target.
That was because she had an amazing instinct towards the target and every time after seeing the picture, she would normally have a deep impression about the target and would never miss the man.
But these four men, today, were making her unsure.
Lu could not be sure about them being Tang Shunian but when these four men appeared, Tang Shunian was surely around the corner.
She was a killer and what she was best at, was to take the life of the target on the sly. Even if she was good at closebat, she would not use this kind of stupid method.
She would not be silly enough to spend her energy by using fists when she could finish the work with a bullet.
Only a mental man like Tang Shunian would waste others energy and time rather than give them a quick death.
Lu was simply curious about how she had been found out. Judging from the four substitutes which Tang Shunian had arranged for her, he must have known that someone was following him.
But she had hidden herself well. How did she get discovered?
Lu was not that good at emotions, but in killing, she had a strong instinct. She was a professional killer and thinking about the minute details was a part of her nature now.
She caught up with one of them quickly and finished him with a lethal bullet.
Her pistol had a silencer so only a muffled sound came out after the killing. Nothing else could be heard.
She left after killing him and did not even bother to deal with the body. She knew that soon people would find that body and chaos would arise, which would help her hide and she would find out why she had been exposed.
Dressed in a ck outfit, she dashed around in the underground mall and then killed the second double.
The body of the first double had been found and loud cries arose there. Women screamed and children whined, the air was so scary that people got frightened.
Lu did not go after the third double, because the underground mall was massive and Tang Shunian must have built an even bigger underground passage through which the two doubles would run to hide themselves away from her. She would fall into Tang Shunians trap if she followed them.
Lu was calm and her heart was beating steadily. She did not show a sign of panic because of the killing.
She hid herself in the darkness, waiting for her prey to show up in the chaos.
Chapter 643 - Death in Darkness
Chapter 643: Death in Darkness
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
The second body was soon discovered and it became even more chaotic. Everyone was panicking and the exit was choked with people. Everyone was trying to find a way out, fearing that they would be killed by some fierce killer.
Normally, most people would run outwards. Hence, those who stayed were not normal people.
Who would be so fearless as to stay here? Money was less important than life, and even salespeople at the mall got so frightened that they ran out.
Lu waited motionlessly in the dark.
With her extraordinary sight, she was looking at the vast underground mall calmly.
Soon, she found several hidden passages and next to them, there were a few fearless salespersons who were guarding their stores.
The two doubles who had survived were less fearless than the salespeople, but started to walk around, trying purposefully to draw Lus attention.
The two men had already died and these two were close to their deaths.
One of them was approaching Lu, and she could notice that even as he was trying to stay calm, his fingers were trembling. Had it not been because of her good sight, she would not have noticed that.
The real Tang Shunian would not have such a reaction.
Tang Shunian must be afraid of death too, but he would never show fear in such an obvious way.
Lu killed the third double who was just 127 meters away from her, dashing towards the fourth double instead of hiding herself any more.
The fourth double soon ran through a security door and went downstairs alongside the passage.
Seeing him disappear, Lu did not go after him but returned to her original position.
That guy was leading her to a trap, undoubtedly and she finally understood how she had been discovered.
There were cameras everywhere in the underground mall. It was very easy to find someone and Tang Shunian knew who she was. He must be seated somewhere watching her at the moment.
Lu found the CCTV room of the mall. Several men in security officers uniforms were guarding it.
Before Lu entered the room, someone was already raising his gun to shoot at her, but she managed to dodge it.
These people were not security officers of the mall, because the real security officers were not armed.
These were all Tang Shunians men, waiting for Lu toe there.
Lu had never lost a fight in the gun shooting, and there were only six of them here who were not that skilled.
Within minutes, the windows of the CCTV room were shattered as the six men dropped dead.
Lu walked forward calmly, without bothering to look at the six corpses on the floor. She stared at the cameras and devices, instead.
She nced around and understood that Tang Shunians devices must be connected to these. But she could not waste her efforts in trying to disconnect every cameras.
She cut off the power of the room and the screens turned dark.
As extra precaution, Lu destroyed all the devices. She did not want Tang Shunians men to turn on the power after she left. Then what she had done would be meaningless.
After Lu came out of the CCTV room, Lu soon found the electricity room and walked in.
There were Tang Shunians men waiting for her there as well. Lu started to suspect that Tang Shunian must own the entire mall.
A few minutester, the men in this room were all dead as well.
Lu pulled the power plug out and the entire mall turned dark.
Lu was not affected by the darkness. She could still see everything clearly.
Lu also destroyed the devices in the electricity room so that it was not possible to restore them.
A lethal air was dominating the underground mall, and the sales people who had not run away were no longer pretending. They were all armed, hiding behind the stores and trying to shoot the invader down.
Lu liked darkness. It helped her put her ability into full y.
She was more capable than ordinary people, yet she was still a human being and she would get injured and fall into a disadvantageous ce when she was surrounded.
But in darkness, she could be more capable and there was less possibility that she could get injured. That was why she found that carrying out an operation in darkness was safer for her.
Lu did not choose to check each of the passages, because that would get her killed, and that was not something she would do.
Tang Shunian was quite good at building all kinds of passages and cers, and Lu got woundedst time in the cer. She was actually a bit scared of theplicated passages and strange cers.
It was easy to enter an underground world, but getting out of there safely was very difficult.
Lu waited patiently, blending herself with the darkness.
Twenty-one hourster, it was still dead silent there. Lu stood motionlessly, just like a statue in the darkness.
For a killer like Lu, hiding in a ce for long-time waiting was necessary, and a fundamental skill for a killer.
If she could not keep herself safe, then she would not be able to kill anyone else.
But not everyone was as patient as Lu.
Down in the dark underground mall, some noise could be heard.
Someone sneaked into a deeper exit of the cer.
Without moving, Lu was still waiting patiently.
Two people were dead here and lots of customers and sales people had run out, but no policeman hade to the rescue.
Lu understood that Jing Yichen must have gone through all the contacts of B City, and had arranged for some men for her outside and was dealing with the emergency outside.
As long as she was not going out or sending the signal, no one woulde in.
This was her battlefield.
Chapter 644 - Killing
Chapter 644: Killing

There were increasingly more people in the underground mall and Lu could tell each one apart clearly.
When they were not paying attention, she suddenly dashed out and followed one of them to the entrance and walked in without uttering a sound.
Tang Shunian naturally had no idea that Lu could see things clearly inplete darkness, so he turned off all the lights in the underground passages and left only one smallmp on after every few meters.
It was impossible to see Lu when she was dressed inplete ck.
Lu was not worried that someone would discover her. All she cared about was that there may be cameras down in the passage that could expose her.
Someone who tried to approach her was killed by her easily and she did it soundlessly.
She changed into the dead mans clothes, and modified her look with a small kit which she had brought with her so she looked more tanned than usual and then she put on a short wig.
After she changed the clothes, she increased her stride.
Lu found that there was no one who recognized her in the passage. Some even nodded at her and some ignored her.
It seemed that Tang Shunians men were not getting on well with each other and did not recognize each other well enough. They must be new employees rather than Tang Shunians trusted men.
The underground passages here were not asplicated as those in the underground kingdom where Tang Shunian trapped Jing Yichen, but the passages looked really deep.
Lu walked for more than an hour before she understood the entire passage.
However, on both sides of each passage, there were endless cers and each of them looked exactly the same.
There was someoneing out of the cer and after a pause, Lu went deeper in.
These cers on the rtively shallowyers were the bedrooms of ordinary men, and only the deeper ones would lead to Tang Shunian.
The deeper she went, the more people there were and all of them looked alert and difficult to approach.
Lu turned back without hesitation and left after tossing a small bomb.
A few secondster, a loud sound arose in the underground world and stones started falling from all ces.
After the trembling stopped, many people came there to check things.
Lu entered the deeper passage smoothly and then opened the door of a cer, randomly.
It was narrow inside, empty except for somepressed cookies, water and food.
There were not many cers in the deeperyer and Lu opened one after another to check them. It was the dumbest yet the only method, otherwise it was impossible to tell which room Tang Shunian was in, when every door looked exactly the same.
It did not take long for Lu to find something weird.
In one of the cers, there were all kinds of plugs of cables and half of the cables were buried underground.
Lu pulled out a sharp de from her boot and then started to dig out the concrete floor alongside the cable.
There may have been other easier ways but she would end up spending too long to find another entrance so she decided to start from this ce.
Only a strong person like Lu was able to dig out solid concrete, which broke like tofu in her hands. She was not a human, at least in some aspects.
These cables would not be too deep, and maybe they were just beneath the cer.
Lu was digging the floor when a cer opened and a man came there. Before the man managed to shoot, he had already dropped dead because of a bullet that went between his eyebrows.
Finishing that person, Lu continued with the digging.
Half an hourter, the floor was broken through.
Yet the moment the floor was dug through, rm rang in the entire underground passage.
Tang Shunian, who was looking at the camera, suddenly got startled and then looked quickly up at the ceiling.
A ck muzzle was aiming at his head through a fist-sized hole.
The rm did not distract Lu who did not seem to hear a thing. She was solely focused upon Tang Shunian.
Tang Shunian looked quite ridiculous at the moment.
He was dressed in a thick bullet-proof coat and even had a bullet-proof helmet on him. He looked like a clumsy bear. He seemed to have difficulty in looking up because his face had turned red.
Angel! Tang Shunian looked at the white hand that was holding the gun, and he could tell that the world number two killer was here for him!
But Tang Shunian soon realized that he was well equipped, so heughed, Angel, kill me, shoot me now!
He had been fully prepared. No bullet would be able to go through his bullet-proof coat!
The rm was still ringing. Tang Shunian had installed an rm in his room. As long as someone touched the wall, the rm would be triggered.
His room was not solid enough, but anyone who tried to enter the room would trigger the rm and he could react quickly to the situation.
Lu had one hand aiming a pistol at Tang Shunian and with the other, she kept shooting the people who kepting to the room, trying to kill her.
After she finished the bullets on her right hand, she started with the left. The noise kept rising and Lu brought out a small sized bomb and tossed it down at Tang Shunian through the fist-sized hole.
Lu ran out of the cer as she kept shooting along the way.
Two secondster, the bomb burst, and the ce where Lu had been, copsed!
The maze like passages had actually given Lu an opportunity to run away.
She had remembered all the paths and hence made the n of running away.
She had onest bomb with her, which might keep her safe in crucial moments.

Lu was not sure if Tang Shunian was dead, and she did not turn around to check. By now, he would have got many people guarding him and if she returned, she would be facing hundreds of bullets.
Also, before the mission, Jing Yichen had told her that the most important goal of this mission was not to kill Tang Shunian, but to keep herself safe.
It would be terrible if she was killed on the mission to kill Tang Shunian.
However, no matter what Jing Yichen said, Lu believed that she had failed the mission.
It was the first time for her to fail a mission, after she formally took up the position as a professional killer at the age of 16.
Most of the time when a killer was on a mission, he did not need to go back to see if that person was dead, because an excellent killer normally hit the target at one go rather than try a second attempt.
Also, the second attempt normally failed, because the opposite side became aware of the danger, and the mental status of the killer would be greatly affected too.
If a killer had to make sure that the target was killed each time, then that killer was basically disqualified, because luck was not always with a killer and killing people was a matter of ability, not lucky.
Failing the mission, Lu looked calm. She didnt know whether she had failed or seeded.
She had volunteered to undertake the mission this time but now the problem was that she was not sure if Tang Shunian was dead or not. He had been wearing a bullet-proof outfit and the bomb might not have taken his life. If that was the case, Jing Yichen would have to spend a lot of time and energy to confirm if Tang Shunian was dead or not.
Despite these thoughts, Lu did not get distressed. She was never emotionally affected and soon she tried to concentrate on things at hand. She could not get distracted now.
Lu was running in theplicated underground passages and was so fast that everyone who was running after her was startled by her speed whilst shooting at her.
A bullet went into her left shoulder and a plume of blood mist flew in the air, slowing Lu down.
Arge number of people were gathered in front of her, blocking the passage.
She had only a few bullets left.
The bullet was causing her pain and blood loss, and Lu was turning pale.
She brought out thest bomb and tossed it in front of her.
Everyone in front of her became pieces of flesh, and the bomb threw Lu dozens of meters back.
Blood dripped out of Lus lips as her inner organs experienced the excruciating impact.
But before she was able to wipe away the blood on her lips, another loud sound arose in the underground passage.
The passages had been rigged with bombs, and igniting one would trigger others and make the area copse. All the people who were running after Lu would die. But Lu would die with them as well. It did not matter if many people were sacrificed!
The 100-meter long passage waspletely destroyed. All those 200 people who had been running after Lu were dead.
The passage was clogged and it was going to take a great deal of time and energy to find Lu!
Large-scaled machines could not get in under the passages and they could be dug out only manually.
But no one would be bothered to find Lus body, because no human could survive this.
...
As the shooting incident urred in the underground mall of B City, the residents of the area panicked. The new mayor and the officer of the Public Security Bureau showed up and said that they would definitely find the murderer and make sure that locals could live a steady and happy life.
As for the crime scene, the underground mall was locked up and the police were busy searching for the incident and the cause.
The shooting incident in the underground mall made sure that the overground mall was closed too.
What was more, the staff were not allowed to go to work any longer, nor did the customers dare to go shopping.
The twenty men Jing Yichen sent out to meet Lu were all elites and Knife Lee, who had been waiting for Lu outside the mall for one whole day, lost connection with Lu at around 2 am on the third day.
In order to make sure Lu was safe, Knife Lee and Lu talked every one hour. At 1:30 a.m, Lu had reported to them that Tang Shunian had been found, but at 2:30 a.m when Knife Lee tried to speak with Lu again, she gave no response.
He waited for half an hour and tried to connect with her again, because sometimes she could not reply whilst in the important fight, and the underground signal had been too bad for them to stay in touch all the time.
After three failed attempts with Lu, Knife Lee felt that something was wrong.
Despite thete hours, Knife Lee called Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen had not been sleeping but was waiting for the news.
Knife Lee instantly recounted the situation to Jing Yichen. Jing Yichen said calmly, Alright, stay there. Dont follow her into the underground. Try connecting with her every ten minutes.
An hourter, Jing Yichen reached the underground mall personally with a helicopter.
Tiger, who had recovered too, followed Jing Yichen. Together with dozens of men, they entered the underground passage.
He had sent Lu here, and Jing Yichen felt that he had the responsibility to see if she was alive or dead.
Knife Lee had reported to him about the trembling experienced under the ground sometime back, and that he lost touch with Lu after the bombing.
When Jing Yichen brought the men down, the passages were empty and those who saw theming, killed themselves, leaving no chance for them to question anyone.
After they walked for a long while and made several turns, they found a big pile of rocks blocking them, under which, there were several corpses.

Jing Yichen looked at the terrible bombing site and said with a calm face, Go and check other entrances to see if there is anyone alive. Find one and ask him.
His men took the order and left, but Jing Yichen stood there.
Normally, people did not survive this kind of attack but Lu was different.
This could have injured her, but would not kill her.
Could it have been because of the bombs impact that themunication device was broken?
Half an hourter, Knife Lee came back and said, Master, we interrogated two guys and they both said that Lu is buried under this passage.
Poised, Jing Yichen nodded and said, Found any other entrances yet?
No, just this one.
Tang Shunian would have made more than one passage that led to his underground cer, but other passages must have been well hidden and difficult to find.
Jing Yichen hade here with experts, and with them involved, a lot of time and energy would be saved.
As the dawn broke, another passage was finally found and in the meanwhile, an unexpected guest arrived.
That guest waved punches at Jing Yichen. Jing Yichen, you ruthless bastard! Go to hell!
Tiger shielded Jing Yichen and wrestled that man down on the floor.
Jing Yirans handsome face was twisted because of the tremendous pain which he was in. When he gradually gained back his senses, he stood up slowly with his hands against the floor.
Why are you not taking revenge yourself? You are so cruel to make Lue here. She may be capable, but she is a woman after all. Did you want to get her killed? His voice sounded hoarse and angry. He was heart-broken.
Without taking a look at him or trying to listen to what he said, Jing Yichen stayed expressionless.
Seeing that he continued to stay silent, Jing Yiran got so furious that he lost control of himself, and he was about to punch him again when Tiger stopped him.
How can you be so cruel? She is probably dead now! You are not even a human being. She works for you, but you dont seem to care about her life! If anything happens to her, I will never forgive you!
Jing Yirans voice turned hoarse after just a few words. He was very annoyed.
Jing Yichen finally nced at him and said calmly, I am the employer. It is her job to do whatever I ask her to. It would be incapable of her if she is killed during the task.
Jing Yiran got so furious that he almost fainted.
He hadnt been able to reach Lu, and was not certain about what happened to her.
He felt his heart break, and thought that Lu was leaving him.
Jing Yiran knew about this mission but had not approved of her taking the risk.
In Jing Yirans heart, Lu was a girl that needed to be taken care of. She might be strong and capable, but she had quit the killers camp and did not need to take the risk to kill Tang Shunian.
Tang Shunian was different from other targets. He was an expert at hiding himself and there were numerous underground worlds built by him in B City. He was like a rat that ran under the ground and it would be very difficult for Lu to use her ability to the fullest degree.
But Lu did not take his advice, and insisted oning to kill Tang Shunian. Now, something terrible had happened to her.
Jing Yiran felt that his heart had been taken away. It ached so terribly that he could not breathe.
He could not stand losing Lu!
Lu was the only one he had!
Jing Yirans eyes were filled with tears of anger and hatred. Jing Yichen, if Lu is dead, I will kill you and then myself!
Jing Yichen did not speak, but took his men to another underground passage and continued following that path.
Annoyed as Jing Yiran was, he followed him as well.
He was not sure what had happened to Lu, and hoped that she was still alive. He was trying his best not to think about the terrible alternate.
He kept telling himself that Lu was too strong to be defeated, and she had many equipment with her and that she was a good shooter with inhuman strength. She was too fast for anyone to catch her.
There were obviously many more people down here than those up there, but they were not part of the core staff, just some people whom Tang Shunian had left behind.
Knife Lee and his men caught several people. All of them said the same thing, The woman was dead, buried in the bombed passages.
Jing Yichens expression did not change when he heard the words, but Jing Yiran got so furious that he kept cursing at Jing Yichen and would have punched him if not for Tiger and Knife Lee. who stopped him.
Jing Yichen looked at Jing Yiran with a cold face and said ruthlessly, Get out of here, or I will kill you!
He was in a terrible mood when he heard Jing Yirans noisy arguments. He truly wished that he could shoot him dead just to shut him up.
He was a ruthless man, but he would not feel good if anything happened to Lu. Lu might not be as close to him as Tiger and Lee Duo, yet she had stayed with the Jing Family for a long time and he did care about her.
Otherwise he would not havee instantly after hearing about Lu being missing.
He also told Lu to keep herself safe before doing anything.
Tiger understood how his master was feeling, so he knocked Jing Yiran out.
Jing Yiran suddenly copsed upon Tiger.
Jing Yichen took a look at him and said calmly, Get him home, stop him from making trouble here.
Tiger responded to the order and gave Jing Yiran to his men who carried him outside.
Without Jing Yirans furious bellowing and cursing, the underground passage had turned silent.
Jing Yichen and his men searched everywhere, including the underground passages and cers, yet failed to find either Tang Shunian or Lu.

Atst, Jing Yichenid his eyes upon the hundred-meter long passage that had been destroyed by the bomb.
Dig out this passage as fast as you can. We need to find her, either alive or dead!
Yes, Master!
Jing Yichens force was apparently muchrger than that of Tang Shunian, and the underground passage was cleared within two days.
Knife Lee called Jing Yichen and reported. Master, we did not find Lus body, but we found her earphones and there was arge patch of blood next to it. The DNA is Lus.
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief and said calmly, Okay, stay in B City now.
Jing Yichen put down the phone and walked out of the study toe to the living room.
Shangguan Ning was feeding Jing Rui. She had recoveredpletely since yesterday, and Jing Rui did not need to drink powdered milk any more.
Seeing Jing Yichening out of the study, Shangguan Ning looked worried. Did you find her?
Jing Yichen shook his head. No, but we found her earphones and a patch of blood. She might be injured, but the wounds should not be fatal.
Shangguan Ning felt relieved. Wounds were fine, as long as Lu was still alive.
Jing Yichen hugged her, and brushed the strands of hair away from her face. He said in a soft voice, Dont worry, she has been through all sorts of danger as a killer, and has gone through much more bitterness than I did. But she managed to always stay alive! She is injured, surely, but she wont die.
Jing Yichen was worried about Lu, but he felt that she would be able to handle herself.
He had once fought alongside her, and knew pretty well what she was capable of.
In the aspect of fighting, they were quite simr, active yet discreet.
Jing Yichen knew that Lu must have followed Tang Shunian, not obeying his order of putting her life first.
Jing Yiran got the update from Knife Lee. It was good news for him that her body was not found!
He intended to find Lu himself but Jing Yichens men stopped him from doing so. Every time he tried to do something, he was punched.
After four attempts, Jing Yiran finally gave up.
He understood that he would not be able to go out. All he could do now was to wait for Lu to return to his side.
He had felt proud to be with Lu, the number two killer in the world.
But now, he did not want her to be that person anymore.
It was too dangerous and she might die anytime.
He wanted Lu to live a steady life, which was not full of blood and danger.
Jing Yichen was still not going to office. He focused upon finding Tang Shunian, because finding Tang Shunian meant finding Lu.
Of course, finding Lu meant finding Tang Shunian, as well.
As long as one of them was found, it would be enough.
But it was proving very difficult to find either of them. Jing Yichen spent three more days before finally finding a few traces of Tang Shunian.
Knife Lee got to know that Tang Shunian was seriously injured and had been forced to go to a hospital.
But it was difficult to find out which hospital it was, because he had made many people dress up like him to stay at the hospital.
There were threerge-scaled hospitals in B City, five mid-sized and eleven small-sized ones.
It would take too long if they checked each hospital one by one.
Unfortunately, they did not find Lu during this period. She seemed to have disappeared totally. She had left no signal or traceable message.
To make it worse, their inspection work at the hospitals was obstructed. B City was not like A City which was under the absolute control of the Jing Family. No hospitals there would dare to resist Jing Yichens order in A city. But the hospitals of B City were different. The tiny ones did not know about the Jing Family or Jing Yichen, so they did not want to cooperate.
But the three major hospitals of B City were quite cooperative, since the directors were all fromrge families and they knew the Jing Family well as an old noble n, one that they all looked up to. So they did not stop Jing Yichen from entering the hospital for inspection.
But they only found fake versions of Tang Shunian there.
Jing Yichen started to focus upon the five middle-sized hospitals.
Small hospitals were not well-equipped and had rtively low-level doctors. If Tang Shunian was seriously injured, small hospitals would not be able to save him.
In order to get rid of Tang Shunian, Jing Yichen hade to B City once again.
He was conducting the tracking in person.
Jing Yichen sifted through all kinds of confusing information andid his eyes upon two hospitals for sudden attack.
...
On the beach of the seashores bathing zone of A City, several children and couples were having fun with each other.
It was a dark night with a cool breeze, which made people feelfortable.
The stars were blinking above the sky as if passing some indescribable messages to the people on the ground.
The night was dark, and the children on the seashore were taken home, with only sea water sshing against the beach.
Several ck-dressed men walked across the smooth beach, leaving footprints on it.
The men, against the weak moonlight, climbed over the tall wall of apound and soon went over the thickwn.
Thepounds guards had been in good spirits but suddenly the next moment, they got so tired that they fell asleep immediately.
But the shadows were still wary. They looked around and approached several hidden figures in the darkness.

Chapter 648: Long Wait!
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Against the light, a de stabbed into a body and a loud muffled sound was heard. When the de was brought out again, it had turned red.
Some minutester, all the people had been eliminated.
The ck figures ran into one of the three tall buildings in thepound.
In the elevator, the button for the 27th floor was pressed. The elevator went up slowly and when it reached the 27th floor, it opened and the ck figures walked out.
In the corridor, there were already arge number of people who had fallen into deep sleep, aware of nothing around them.
They had been drugged, and even the loudest thunder would not wake them up.
One of the figures said in a low voice, Ha, just a bunch of pigs! I was over prepared!
He leapt over the sleepy bodyguards and reached a high-end locked door and said to the men next to him, Open it, and dont make any sound!
It was not very easy to open the door. The safe cracking expert spent five minutes opening that door.
It was totally dark inside the ce. Only the quiet breathing sounds could be heard.
The home was decorated in European style. The living room wasrge and spacious with vast ceiling-to-floor windows and a light brown-color carpet.
On the white marble table, there were several books for children and on the white sofa, two lovely lion figures were lying there.
Against the supple light, the home looked cozy with these small things.
But the ck figures did not spend any time in appreciating the room. The dirty shoes left stark footprints upon the clean and luxurious carpet.
There were six of them, and each of them concentrated on the task ahead.
The men were not very familiar with theyout of the home, so they were not sure which room the owner was staying in.
One of them opened a cozily-decorated baby room, yet the infant was not there. A middle-aged woman was in deep sleep.
Boss, the child is not here!
Doesnt matter, try searching other rooms. Our men were always on the watch. The mother and son never stepped out of the house. They must be here still!
His home is too big, I am feeling dizzy walking through these rooms!
Stop talking! The owner is thankfully in B City. Thats how we managed to get in. When he is back, we will have to run for our lives.
Soon, the main bedroom was found.
The curtain was not drawn, and the moonlight shone through, showing everything inside the room clearly.
There was a person lying on the bed, and even with the nket on, she looked slender and beautiful. The white, lovely arm was outside the nket, and the skinny waist as well as long legs made people be fascinated.
She had long hair strewn over the pillow, sleeping heavily. She was unaware that there were six lethal men looking at her at the moment.
Next to the bed was a cradle, in which a small figure was lying there. The face was blurred, yet they were sure that it was the child they were seeking.
Get the woman and the child, now!
The leader had just finished speaking the words, when the dark bedroom was suddenly flooded with light.
Who is it?!
The six of them could not open their eyes because of the strong light, but soon calmed down after panicking for a moment.
The words had just been spoken when a muffled sound arose. Three of the six men had already dropped dead.
Freeze, or die!
A crispy voice arose in the bedroom.
Suddenly the beautiful figure on the bed sprang up, dashed to their side and blocked the way.
Tang Shunian, I have been waiting for you for so long!
The three men shivered when they heard the name, Tang Shunian.
No one dared to turn around, but the leader shouted in fright. Angel, you are not dead?
Against the bright light, the figure in the cradle could be clearly seen. It was not a child, but a toy!
Damn, they had been fooled!
Shangguan Ning and her child were not inside the apartment!
That was impossible!
His men had been on watch all the time, and Shangguan Ning had been taking care of the child all this while. She did not leave the apartment and went to bed at 10!
The six men had searched the home thoroughly. Apart from the nanny, there was no one else here!
Hands up, no turning around! Lu sounded cold, and when it was said with her baby-like voice, the three men found it really weird.
But only five arms went up.
The man standing on the left side was dressed in an ordinary ck dress. One of his arms was missing.
The leader suddenly pleaded with Lu. Angel, please release us, we are just working for our master! If you release us, I will definitely tell you where the master is!
Tang Shunian is one of you. I will not release any of you.
Lus pale looking face looked lethal and her smile was quite cold too.
Tang Shunian, do you think that you can escape just because you are in A City rather than in B City?
The most dangerous ce tended to be the safest ce. What was more, when Jing Yichen had his men searching Tang Shunian in B City, A City was the most suitable ce for them to hide.
No one would have expected that Tang Shunian would be here in A City, which was dominated by the Jing Family!
What are you talking about Ms. Angel? Our master is not here, he is at the hospital of B City! Your bomb hurt our master seriously. He cant even walk, let alone being here in A City!
Please, let us go, I have parents and children at home and it is so difficult to work for food. Our master is going to die very soon, and we will not work for him any more. Please, release us!
Chapter 649 - Without One Arm
Chapter 649: Without One Arm
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Oh, so you mean that Tang Shunian is now armless and legless?
Lu replied calmly and then aimed at the person without an arm.
Now I know which one of you is him. Thanks for the information!
The leader looked as if he were on the verge of crying. Ms. Angel, please, my master is not here. You have already killed three of my brothers. Please do not shoot us any more! I can give you however much money you want. My brother is not only armless but is also suffering a great deal. If you kill him, his parents and son would have no one left to lean upon.
Oh right, I did hear that Tang Shunian has a young son and old parents.
Lu chuckled.
Tang Shunian, you are very lucky to only lose only one arm under the impact of such a strong bomb. Today you are wearing a bullet-proof coat but no helmet. What a pity!
That man with only one arm straightened his back and his raised arm was withdrawn. Then he turned around to confront Lu.
His face did not resemble that of Tang Shunians. His cheeks were pale and his eyebrows were not that thick either. His lips were thicker than that of Tang Shunians, and his eye-sockets were deep. He had lost his original handsomeness.
Only his look did not change. It was still sinister and proud.
He smiled a little and then started tough wildly.
His eyes were full of hatred at this moment.
He said fiercely, Angel, you truly are brave. Do you think that you, the number 2 killer are invincible? Let me tell you. I will use my most cruel method to torment you, and you will not die, but suffer in pain every single day!
Tang Shunian had not just lost one of his arms, his body was also full of numerous wounds. His top-notch bullet-proof coat had been shredded into pieces on site.
If not for the coat and helmet, he would have been blown into pieces at that time.
That bomb had hurt his inner organs. The pain was tormenting him and even if the broken arm had received medical aid, the pain was still piercing!
He lost an arm!
That was something that made Tang Shunian faint after he woke up.
He could not ept that he had been turned into a handicapped person.
He had been perfect but wasnt any more! He was going to be disabled his entire life!
It was all Angels fault! In return, he was going to break hers too.
Tang Shunian bellowed with a twisted face. Had it not been because of Lus gun pointed at him, he would have already lunged at her.
But Lu was not affected by his emotion. Your time is over. Go to hell first!
Tang Shunianughed wildly. If I can deal with Jing Yichen, I can deal with you too, young girl. I had suspected that you were not dead, so I came fully prepared. I wont fail today!
Lu frowned slightly. She had, actually, not been feeling very good about what happened today.
She had been following Tang Shunian these past few days, but his men were always around him and he was always cautious. Due to her serious injuries, she couldnt approach him.
But he suddenly appeared at Landscape Compound today without being armed, trying to take away Shangguan Ning and Jing Rui as hostages. That had been abnormal.
He only had five men with him, and one of them was a lock expert rather than fighter. It was not Tang Shunians style to have so few men with him in such trying times.
He was a man who was very good at protecting his life and privacy, otherwise he would not have dug underground cers in B City for so long. He feared death, and his cers gave him a stronger feel of security than the vis.
This was the reason why Lu had not shot him till now. Otherwise, she would not have talked with Tang Shunian for so long.
The scene in movies where people talked so much before shooting was not realistic. It was a taboo for a killer.
Real professional killers never talked with their targets. Nor did they spare any moment for the target to talk.
Killers were out there to kill, not to talk!
Lu had actually known which one of them was Tang Shunian, but she did not pull the trigger, because her instinct told her that something was wrong.
She felt that if she did, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
But she was not sure what Tang Shunian had with him so that he could be so fearless.
Tang Shunian was the first failed mission in Lus life as a professional killer and she did not want to live with that blot on her career. She wanted to kill him, else he would definitely kill her. But this was not Tang Shunians underground world, not a ce for him to hide. He was not going to run away from here.
That was something Lu was confident about.
Therefore, she broke the taboo as a killer and talked with Tang Shunian standing here.
Lu did not move the gun, which was aimed at his head. She would pull the trigger if he did not have a reason to make her scared.
Tell me, what do you have as the bargaining chip? This is yourst chance. Lu said calmly.
Tang Shunians smile was gone. Instead, he said with fierceness. I have a man who had died but came alive again. But now, he may not be able to live for much longer!
Lus originally pale face turned even paler.
Tang Shunian could not help but sneer at the sight of her changed expression.
He was not a soft-hearted man. People always had weaknesses, and he knew how to make use of them.
Chapter 650 - Weakness
Chapter 650: Weakness
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
When you were buried under the rocks the other day, someone was searching for you crazily. Who is that man, you remember? He looks very handsome and worries about you a great deal. He even had a fight with Jing Yichen. How will you feel if I broke his arm like you broke mine? No, no, I should break his arm and his leg, so he could bepletely handicapped!
He had wondered that since Jing Yiran was nothingpared to Angel, it was only Jing Yiran who was worried about her. But it seemed that Jing Yiran, the man he hated, was of some value.
Angel had always held a lethal look. But her face changed when she heard Jing Yirans name.
Haha, ridiculous! Even such top rated killers of the world also fell in love! Unfortunately, it was proving to be her fatal weakness.
Killers were strictly barred from falling in love, and Angel had breached the rule. Would her camp give her serious punishment, if they learned about the truth?
But Tang Shunian did not know that Lu had already left the camp and stopped working for them. So she did not need to follow any strict rules.
Lu had never expected that Tang Shunian would threaten her with Jing Yiran. She was used to being alone and was not attached to anyone. So she did not need to worry that her friends or rtives would be harmed if she killed someone.
She had forgotten that Jing Yiran was beside her now and that he could be exploited.
Jing Yiran was indeed her weakness. She would rather get injured than get him wounded. But she was not sure how Jing Yiran was doing at the moment.
Lu nced at Tang Shunian coldly and said in a killing tone, He better be fine now, or I will ruin you.
Of course he is fine now, but it would depend upon you if he continues to be fine. If something happens to me now, something would happen to him too. If I can leave safely, then he would stay intact. Would you like to hear his voice?
Tang Shunian was confident that he had Lu under his control now. Of course, he was going to make Lu hear that Jing Yiran was under his mens control, otherwise Lu would not believe him!
Tang Shunian had a twisted smile on his face.
He had been fully prepared before he came here. Without protection, he would not have shown up so easily.
Also, if it had been so easy to catch Shangguan Ning, he would have done that ages ago! Jing Yichen kept her safe all the time, and he had already suspected something when he could overe the bodyguards so easily. Sure enough, he had fallen in a trap!
Jing Yichen must have known that he wasing, and that was why he went to B City with his men just to cooperate with Lu to put on the show!
He had almost fallen for it!
Luckily, he had always been used to preparing a backup for himself, otherwise he would have been killed today.
Seeing Lu say nothing, Tang Shunian waved to one of his men. Make the call, and let Ms. Angel hear her beloved mans voice.
His man brought out the phone and made the call. A few secondster, a voice that was extremely familiar flooded the room.
...who sent you here? Get out of here! I am not to be touched by you bastards! One more step ahead, and I will jump off from here. If I die, you would all have worked in vain. Hahaha!
Some mens voices arose from the other side of the phone, when Jing Yiran finished speaking. Some were mocking him and some were cursing.
But it seemed that Jing Yiran was not seriously injured, so Lu felt slightly assured.
The callsted only for 30 seconds before Tang Shunian cut it.
Lu looked at him and said calmly, Leave him alone, and I will leave you alone.
No way, you are good at tracking, if I release the hostage, you can catch up with me five minutester. I am not that stupid! Jing Yiran must remain in my custody till I am safe. After that I will definitely release him, I promise.
Tang Shunian was making promises right now, but inwardly, he was thinking that even if he was safe, he would not release Jing Yiran. He was a great bargaining chip. With Jing Yiran in his hands, this female killer would never be able to touch him!
Haha, he was so smart!
Tang Shunian was just feeling content when Lu said sharply, Okay, you can leave now, but I need to call Jing Yiran again to see where he is now.
Tang Shunian looked at Lu in astonishment. He had not expected that she would agree so fast.
He was putting forward a condition that was only beneficial for himself, not for her, but was she so confident that she would be able to save Jing Yiran even if he broke the promise?
Tang Shunian turned a bit serious now.
This goddamned killer! He muste up with an absolute solution to solve this problem, otherwise he would not have a peaceful day with her eyes on him.
Seeing Tang Shunian not react, Lu became hesitant.
She suddenly realized that she had agreed way too fast!
She might be an experienced killer, but wasnt skilled in conspiracies.
She was indeed confident enough to save Jing Yiran and kill Tang Shunian, even if Tang Shunian broke the promise.
So she did not think that the condition Tang Shunian mentioned was so tough.
But Lu was not stupid. She realized that what she had said revealed her ability and intention, so she asked lethally, Tang Shunian, why are you being hesitant? Were you trying to set me up by lying to me about not releasing Jing Yiran. You are afraid that I would hunt you again?!
Tang Shunian said without changing the expression. No way, as long as I am safe, I will definitely release Jing Yiran. Dont worry! I am just worried that if youe at me once again after I lose the bargaining chip.
Chapter 651 - Human or Ghost?
Chapter 651: Human or Ghost?
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
Tang Shunian thought for a while and then said, You must make a promise that after I release Jing Yiran, you will never hunt me ever again in my life!
In the killers field, a killers promise was the most effective of all. Since a killer couldnt keep showing up in different ces, an oral contract was held valid enough in such cases. As a result, all oral contracts were as effective as a written one, and the majority of killers would not break the promise, otherwise they would not be able to receive any more missions in future.
Tang Shunian did not trust Lupletely, but an oral promise was better than nothing. The more skilled a killer was, the more faithful she might be.
Angel had always had a wonderful reputation in killers field, and had never broken any promise.
Lus quick answerst time had made Tang Shunian suspicious. This time, she hesitated for a long time before spilling out one sentence, If you let him go, I will not kill you.
Having received Lus promise, Tang Shunian finally decided to trust her a bit.
I need to talk with Jing Yiran.
Without hesitation, Tang Shunian ordered his men to make the call.
When he was safe, he could order his men to release Jing Yiran falsely, and then his men could ambush him if Lu broke the promise. Jing Yiran was going to be his protection.
As for Shangguan Ning, he would go abroad and take her with him. He was definitely not going to leave without her.
She was such a fascinating woman that he could not let her go!
Also taking her away would definitely make Jing Yichen miserable and angry and he would spend the rest of his life in regret and hatred!
Soon the call connected, and Jing Yiran was startled when he heard Lus voice.
Three hours had passed since he was brought to this ce, but no matter how much he asked them, these people had not spilled any information about who sent them.
Jing Yiran had thought that it was Yang Muyan who tried to kill him after discovering his coboration with Jing Yichen, but that was not the case.
He had never expected that when Jing Yichen and his men went to capture Tang Shunian in B City, Tang Shunian was actually in A City! It was a city dominated by Jing Yichen, and even if he was not in A City, Tang Shunian could easily expose himself.
But what made Jing Yiran happy was that Lu was really alive!
That was the best news he had heard in a longtime.
But when Lu asked him where he was now, he was baffled.
He truly had no idea where he was, but he was certain that he was still in the city center of A City, because it had not taken him long to arrive here, blindfolded.
He described the environment and Lu said, Okay, I know where it is. Wait for me there, and I wille and find you.
Jing Yiran was d that Lu was still alive and that he could leave this ce, but he found it a bit ufortable, when he had to be saved by her.
Why was everything about them going in the opposite direction?
What he had been doing was what a woman was supposed to do, whilst what Lu did was what a man was supposed to do!
Jing Yiran was still in the middle of feeling shameful about getting rescued by Lu when she was already standing in front of him.
He got so startled that his eyes turned round!
It was impossible that she reached here so fast!
Jing Yiran rubbed his eyes, fearing that he was just dreaming.
But when he opened his eyes again, Lu was standing in front of him, gazing at him with a caring look.
She was really here!
That was way too fast. Could it have been that she was downstairs? Otherwise how did she arrive here so fast?
Tang Shunians men who were guarding Jing Yiran didnt even realise when a whirlwind went past them and a woman appeared in the room.
They all got startled!
Was this woman a human or a ghost?! She was pale-looking and carried blood stains over her body.
Was she a female ghost that had just woken up ande out to seek blood?
The room fell deadly silent, and then a few secondster, miserable screams could be heard from there.
They had totally forgotten Tang Shunians instructions and ran out for their lives.
This pale-looking woman was so scary. She might not be a ghost, but she could not have been a normal person!
Within a minute, everyone was gone.
Lu nodded in satisfaction when those men left so fast.
Good, that saved her the trouble of killing them.
Jing Yiran was standing by the window because he had been threatening to jump off the building. Those strong men had been creeping him out when they looked at him as if they were staring at a pretty woman.
He came off from the window ledge towards Lu and swept her into his arms.
I am so d that you are fine. I thought that I would never be able to see you again!
Jing Yiran had not eaten or slept these past days. He kept thinking about Lu, fearing that something had happened to her. Now when she was standing in front of him, he finally let out a sigh of relief.
Lu pushed him away slightly and sized him up as she asked in a small voice. Are you alright?
Jing Yiran said, Yes. No one dared to approach me fearing that I would jump off the building. Wasnt it a good method?
He noticed Lus pale face and the blood stain on her clothes.
He felt his heart ache. Even though the wounds on her were not fatal, he was concerned.
Are you injured? I will take you to hospital!
Jing Yiran tried to push Lu towards the exit.
Lu got rid of his hand and said, I am fine, I cant go to the hospital now, I need to finish my mission.
Hearing that she was still going to look for Tang Shunian, Jing Yiran got furious and said, Are you trying to get yourself killed? It is not necessary for you to kill him. Are you silly? Tang Shunian is Jing Yichens enemy, not yours. I forbid you to continue with this any longer. No more killing. Come with me to the hospital. Look at your pale face. You must have bled a lot.

No one had said a thing like this after she was found gifted in killing people.
Everyone demanded her to kill and told her that she was suitable to work as a killer and she must continue doing it.
No one was worried about her taking risks or if she would get injured. No one would stop her from killing just because they were worried about her safety.
She was a killing machine without emotions, born to kill. Maybe it was because killing did bring her a sense of achievement, so she found it reasonable to kill people.
At this moment, Jing Yirans anger made Lu feel quite warm deep within.
There was now someone out there who cared about her and did not want her to take the risk, thinking that she was a woman who needed to be protected even though she was capable enough herself.
Lus voice turned gentle. I need the Jing Familys protection. Jing Zhongxiu would not protect me any more, if anything happens to Jing Yichen. Also, I have owed the Jing Family way too much, and there is nothing else I can do to pay them back. It is reasonable that I solve the problem for Jing Yichen. That is my value to them. I am capable of nothing apart from killing people.
The Jing Family are capable enough to hire the first and the third top killers to murder Tang Shunian. If theybine forces, even I wont be a match against them. But if the Jing Family hires them, then the contract between the Jing Family and the killers camp would be broken and I will need to return to the camp to be the killer again for them.
Jing Yiran knew the rules!
Lu had already told him that for the sake of her, the Jing Family had had a long talk with the killers camp for a very long time and if it had not been because of Jing Zhongxius great rtionship with the bosses of the killers camp, she would not have made it alive out of the camp.
The killers camp had been existing for hundreds of years. The rules were getting stricter and fewer people were able to walk out free from there. There were at most five people who hade out of the ce including Lu.
But Jing Yiran had been so worried about Lu that he forgot about these rules.
He hated Tang Shunian and the killers camp!
And he hated himself the most for being useless!
If he had killed Tang Shunian the other day, Lu would not have needed to suffer.
If he were powerful or skilled, he would not need Lu to kill Tang Shunian.
Jing Yiran swept Lu into his arms and said fiercely, You are not going there, I can kill him myself. He is just Tang Shunian!
Luughed and wrapped her hands around his waist as she said in her baby-voice, Tang Shunian is a bit different. He always has a way to keep himself safe. I cant kill him yet, let alone you. Also, I wont let you go there. He will die tonight, but...
But what?
Luughed at him. But you need to rest for a while.
What? Lu, you would not dare, you cant...
Before Jing Yiran finished his words, he copsed softly onto Lu.
Sorry, I must run after Tang Shunian, or I will not be able to catch up with him. I will take you hometer.
Lu carried Jing Yiran and disappeared in the darkness.
...
The effect of anesthetic on Tang Shunian was fading and the pain in his broken arm was tormenting him viciously.
He was in so much pain that he wished that he could pass out!
His men were driving towards the hospital at a high speed but Tang Shunian was stillining about it and urged them to hurry up.
The wound had started to bleed again, and the empty sleeve was now dyed with redness.
Without the right arm,Tang Shunian was suffering fiercely. When he saw people with two arms, he hated it enough to want to chop theirs off, so they could be like him!
In a few minutes, Tang Shunian received his mens call, who were reporting about the status of Jing Yiran.
His men were shivering as they stumbled to speak up. Tang Shunian finally realized that Lu took only a few minutes before arriving at the tall building thousands of kilometers away from the Landscape Compound.
That was impossible!
A helicopter could make it, but a car could not.
Was she a human being or not?!
When she was fighting against hundreds of people down in the cer, she had shown patience and stamina, but her speed hadnt been tested that day.
She may be strong but within a few minutes time, she covered so many kilometers. That was not what a human could do.
Also, down in the underground mall, Lu didnt die even though the bomb was really strong.
She was not even fatally injured.
That was so strange!
Tang Shunian did not believe in anything like gods or deities, because no ghosts had haunted him after he conducted so many sins.
Lu was a human being, but she must be hiding a big secret.
Tang Shunian suspected that it would be something that could fundamentally transform human beings functions, otherwise Lus strength and speed could not have reached this degree.
If he was able to get this secret, he might get his missing arm back.
When Tang Shunian thought of the possibility, he got very excited.
He had feared that Lu woulde after him but now, he wished that Lu woulde after him.
He needed to capture Lu and dig out her secret.
The Mus Hospital was definitely the best hospital in A City, but Tang Shunian would not choose the Mus Hospital as the ce for his treatment. Mus Hospital and Jing Yichen were in a close rtionship and he was seeking his death if he went there.
He found a very small hospital. His serious wounds had been dealt with, and he just needed some dressing and a strong shot of anesthetic that could be done at any hospital.
Jing Yichen wasing back to A City from B City and Tang Shunian needed to capture Lu before he returned.

Lu was definitely desperate to kill him and he expected her toe to him sooner thanter.
It did not take long before Lu tracked Tang Shunian to the hospital, and that made Tang Shunian both scared and surprised.
He was scared that with such a capable and fast person like Lu was his hunter. He will not be able to escape her.
What surprised him happily was that when Lu was so capable, she must be really strong and if he could be as strong as she was, then he would not need to worry about anyone.
The hospital was small, and the nurses on duty all fell asleep because of exhaustion. There were only a few patients in the hospital and most of the wards were empty.
The lights in the corridor were dim, and looked scary.
Lu walked in without making a sound.
Maybe for anyone else, it was a scary ce, but Lu was scared of nothing.
The smell of antiseptic solution was everywhere in the hospital. Apart from that, there was a faint smell of blood.
Everyone had a different scent, the same went for the smell of their blood. But these were very faint scents that could not be distinguished by human nose. Animals could easily distinguish their masters from friends and strangers by this.
Lu had a far sharper sense of smell than most human beings, sometimes even sharper than that of animals. That was why she had been able to catch up with Tang Shunian.
Of course, that would only work when they were not too far apart. If Tang Shunianhad been in B City whilst she was in A City, she would not be able to track him.
But now they were in the same city, and that made it very easy for her to reach him.
Unless Tang Shunian was hidden deep underground, Lu was not going to allow him to escape.
Following the faint scent of blood, Lu dashed up to the top floor.
There were fourteen floors in this hospital and the outpatient sections took up the first nine floors whilst thest five were wards.
When she reached the 14th floor, the scent of his blood became stronger. Apart from the scent, there was a smell of knockout drops in the air as well.
How stupid was he?
Luughed coldly to herself. Was he thinking of using this method on her? She was not going to be affected by anything like this.
She pushed open the door of one of the wards and walked in slowly.
Tang Shunian was lying on the sickbed, looking furious and frightened. He confronted her fiercely, Angel, what are you doing here?! Didnt you promise me that you will not hunt me as long as I released Jing Yiran? You are breaking your promise!
Lu threw a look at him and said indifferently, Werent you waiting for me? Otherwise, you would not have left apparent traces that I could follow you to this hospital. You have thought of some ways to deal with me, have you? You better forget about knockout drops, because I am not going to be affected by them. Anesthetic might work better, but this hospital might not have enough of it.
Tang Shunian looked at her and then became wildly happy. He had unusual red patches on the face and did not even feel pain in the broken arm right now.
He might not be able to deal with Lu diplomatically, so he went for the direct approach. He looked at Lu greedily. Girl, if you tell me about your bodys secret, then I may not hurt you!
Lu was slightly startled and then realized that she had given away some important information about herself.
But she did not panic.
Few people knew about her secret in this world, and those who did were either trying to gain benefits for themselves or stay close to her as friends, so they would not reveal her secret to the public. And those who got to know about it identally and tried to make use of her, were all dead.
Since Tang Shunian had discovered her secret, she would not spare him.
Lu stood by the sickbed and gazed at Tang Shunian with a calm expression. What if I dont tell you anything?
Tang Shunian was not scared of Lu even if she stayed so close to him. He looked excited and happy!
If you dont tell me anything, then Jing Yiran whom you just saved will be dead!
Oh, him again?
Lu sounded very calm. She was not nervous like she had been when Tang Shunian threatened her for the first time with Jing Yiran.
Tang Shunian thought that something was wrong, but he could not tell what it was. He thought for a while carefully and could not find any loophole.
He felt hair standing upon the back of his neck when Lu stared at him. She had no expression on her face. So he said proudly, Yes, it is him again!
You want to hear my secret?
Yes, tell me now, and Jing Yiran will not need to suffer.
Oh, it is nothing big. I am stronger than ordinary people, because there is a virus existing in my body. That virus can make me as strong as a superman and as weak as tofu. You want it?
Tang Shunian automatically ignored as weak as tofu but held on to as strong as a superman.
He said with a twisted face, I want to be strong, give me your blood!
Lu sounded unaffected but said calmly, Sure, but are you sure you have nothing more to tell me? Who else have you taken hostage apart from Jing Yiran?
Tang Shunian turned a bit wary at her words, but he still could not understand what Lu meant. The anesthetic that stopped him from getting pain had also made his brain functioning slow.
He was no longer as quick-witted as before, so he said quickly, Who else apart from Jing Yiran?
Oh in that case.... I thought that you had got someone else in mind. Then...
Lu raised the gun and aimed it at Tang Shunians head. She said coldly, You can die now!
Chapter 654 - Argument
Chapter 654: Argument
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
The bullet rammed into Tang Shunians head, taking the consciousness out of him.
His eyes were wide open. He could not believe that Lu had pulled the trigger.
He had told her about Jing Yiran, but she did not seem worried at all.
Could it have been because she never actually cared about Jing Yiran and had pretended just to confuse him?
Or could it have been because Jing Yiran was out of his control?
That was a question Tang Shunian would never figure out the answer to.
The pain inside his head soon pulled him into endless darkness.
After Lu pulled the trigger, she suddenly remembered how Jing Yiran was once shot by Jing Yichen. She thought for a second and put one more bullet into his heart.
In this way, he would never be able toe back from the dead.
The sound of shooting startled Tang Shunians guards and the entire hospital building. However, when they entered the room, they saw Tang Shunian lying dead, but there was no one else there.
The tightly sealed window of the ward was open, and the white curtains were floating against the breeze as if telling them that the murderer hopped off from this ce and escaped.
Lu soon left the hospital and rushed to Jing Yirans small vi.
She was finally relieved after Tang Shunian was killed.
She had conducted numerous missions and killed numerous people but never failed. Even if she quit being a killer in the future, she would not want to leave something to regret for, in her life.
She had been keeping a perfect record that could not be ruined by Tang Shunian.
That kind of failure would keep pestering her and tormenting her. Only by killing Tang Shunian would she be able to finish her career in a perfect way.
As for Jing Yiran, he was absolutely safe. Tang Shunians men had already been controlled by Jing Yichen and told Tang Shunian whatever he asked them to. Tang Shunian had lost one arm and his intelligence along with it. He should have known that Jing Yichens men were everywhere in A City and his men were not faithful people. They gave into Jing Yichen as soon as they were caught.
When Lu arrived home, she saw two tall men confronting each other in the living room. Shangguan Ning was sitting there with Jing Rui in her arms. She looked helpless. Jing Ruisrge eyes were staring at the two men curiously as he let out some noise as if trying to stop the fight. No one really understood what he was saying.
The moment she entered, Shangguan Ning instantly stood up and walked towards her with Jing Rui in her arms. Lu, finally you are here. These two got in a fight when you were not here!
Jing Rui did not think of Lu as a stranger. He kept making sounds as if trying to tell her what was going on.
Before Lu was able to say anything, Jing Yiran rushed to her and sized her up thoroughly. He let out a sigh of relief when he was sure that she was not injured anymore.
Lu put her hand into his and told him that she was fine. Then she turned to Jing Yichen and said calmly, He is dead.
Startled slightly, Jing Yichen nodded. Okay.
He had just said one word without showing any expression of either surprise or joy, so Jing Yiran became a bit unhappy.
Jing Yichen, what do you mean by okay? My woman risked her life to kill that person and she almost lost her life. You are so heartless!
Jing Yichen had been used to hearing Jing Yiran addressing Lu as his woman, so he didnt find it strange. But Shangguan Ning heard it for the first time, so she turned to look at Lu in surprise.
Lus pale-looking face was expressionless too. She had been used to hearing Jing Yiran calling her in this way.
Jing Yichen looked at Jing Yiran coldly and said, Then should I give her an award or a trophy? Is she a student?
His cold attitude and indifferent tone seriously annoyed Jing Yiran.
Stop talking nonsense You were incapable of killing Tang. Thats why you asked my woman to kill him. You are a bastard. Stay away from my woman. She is not going to work for you anymore.
Jing Yichen said calmly, Angel is the second most excellent killer in the world, and it is easy for her to kill Tang Shunian. I am her employer, so I dont have to do that myself, otherwise why do I need a killer for? She can choose not to do the mission. I never forced her to do it. She did whatever she needed topensate for what she has owed to the Jing Family.
Also, killing Tang Shunian is not going to be enough aspensation against the Jing Familys expenses spent on her in the past few years. She has not been a good enough bodyguard for my wife and my child, because of which they were controlled by a shameless man who forced my wife to jump off the bridge and undergo earlybor. I have already been merciful enough to keep her alive till the present day!
Jing Yichen might ignore everything else, but he had been very disappointed and annoyed by Lus failed mission as Nings bodyguard. If he had not trusted Lu deeply and reced her with someone else, Shangguan Ning would not have suffered that much.
It was impossible for him to award Lu right now.
Leave Lu out of it!
Jing Yiran felt quite guilty when that incident was mentioned, but he did not want Jing Yichen to think that it was Lus fault!
I was the culprit for that incident, dont me Lu. I am ready to take the responsibility. Also, you already took revenge. Let bygones be bygones. But Lu killed for you and got injured, and she almost lost her life, why cant you just make up for her loss somehow?
Seeing the two of them start to fight again, Shangguan Ning could not help but feel frustrated.
But Jing Rui, who understood nothing, cheered them on loudly.

Chapter 655: One Bullet Here

The argumentsted till midnight.
Shangguan Ning had not expected that Jing Yiran had changed so much and cared about Lu so deeply. He was so concerned for her that a small wound on her made him get agitated. He kept pestering Jing Yichen to make him promise that he would never make Lu kill people in the future.
Jing Yichen also had thought about helping Lu quit, but when Jing Yiran spoke to him in such a terrible tone, he got annoyed. In irritation, he even threatened that he would make Lu kill each and every one of the Jing Familys rivals.
The two brothers almost got into a fight because of this.
They were still arguing with each other on this matter when Lu reached back.
Compensation? If she is so cheeky as to ask forpensation, I would definitely give some to her, but I dont think that she is brazen enough to ask me.
Jing Yichen was about to say something more when Shangguan Ning tugged at his sleeves and said, Stop it, Yichen, lets go home, our son is really tired now.
Jing Ruis wide eyes showed that he was not tired at all. He was in good spirits. His mother was tantly lying!
But when Jing Yichen heard what Shangguan Ning said, he stopped arguing with Jing Yiran and took Jing Rui from Shangguan Nings arms. He took hold of her hand and walked out of the vi.
After they stepped out, Jing Yichen remembered that he should have driven away Jing Yiran from this vi which was originally his. Jing Yiran was living under his roof!
Only Lu and Jing Yiran were left alone in the living room now.
Lu leaned against his arms and whispered tiredly. I truly cant ask for anypensation. I insisted on killing Tang Shunian. It has nothing to do with Jing Yichen. The Jing Family has done way too much for me toin about. I would have lost my life ages ago without them.
Jing Yiran felt his heart aching badly.
He had been focussed upon fighting against Jing Yichen instead of caring about Lu. Also, he did not know how much the Jing Family had helped her apart from the blood transfusion, which wasplicated enough.
If it had not been because of the Jing Family, Mu Wensheng would not have spent any efforts in helping Lu.
He had the same family name, but Mu Wensheng never treated him as part of the family.
Jing Yiran regretted arguing with Jing Yichen now. He had been able to control himself during the past few days but after Lu risked her life, he got so worked up that he lost his cool.
Jing Yichen was a very cold man who only cared about Shangguan Ning and Jing Rui.
Jing Yiran took hold of Lu helplessly and mumbled. Am I a useless person? I keep giving you trouble rather than help you...
Lu shook her head and held him tightly as she said, I am the number 2 killer in the world. You cant protect me. It is not about you, but me.
But Jing Yichen could protect her.
Those were the words which Jing Yiran spoke deep inside his heart. He again saw how different he and Jing Yichen were in capability. It was a cruel blow on his self-esteem.
Jing Yiranughed bitterly. At the moment, he had nothing. Even when he was the second master of the Jing Family earlier, with power and properties, he had never been a match against Jing Yichen. But he had never admitted it and kept deceiving himself.
Instead of staying glum, he started to think about a way to solve the problem. He needed to work hard and make it right so that one day, he was able to protect Lu with his own strength.
Jing Yiran removed her clothes slowly and checked her.
Lu did not shy away. She did not think that being stripped was a matter of shame.
She had many new wounds on her, mostly caused by the bombing.
But her cells could recover ten times faster than ordinary people. Her wounds could heal in one day, while it would take others ten days to recover.
So what Jing Yiran saw right now were just small hurts rather than bleeding wounds.
A whileter, most of the marks would disappear as well. Only deep wounds would leave a scar.
He let out a sigh and was about to take Lu for a shower and rest when Lu said, Take me to the hospital.
Instantly, Jing Yiran asked nervously. What is it? Are you feeling unwell?
Lu pointed at her left shoulder. A bullet is lodged here and is yet to be taken out.
What?! Jing Yiran got both furious as well as heartroken. She had a bullet inside her and had been out hunting Tang Shunian all this while. It must have hurt a great deal and she had said nothing until now.
Jing Yiran felt his heart break. He himself had a bullet in the head that kept tormenting him. Sometimes it stung him and caused him immense pain. He could almost feel the tremendous pain in Lus shoulder.
When he had been checking Lus wounds, all he could see was a minor wound on the left shoulder. But now, she would have to go through an incision at the hospital to bring out the bullet and then get stitches.
Instead of saying anything, he walked out of the vi with her in his arms.
Due to Lus special physical condition, Jing Yiran did not dare to bring her to any other hospital apart from the Mus Hospital. When it was dark, he sneaked into the Mus Hospital. Yang Muyan had two men watching him all the time. Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen had risked a great deal when they were at the vi, today.
Good that Yang Muyan did not suspect him much. The two men on watch were always quiteid back and Shangguan Ning had taken the back door when she came there.
Jing Yiran also brought Lu out from the back door. The two men were fast asleep.
Actually Yang Muyans men were really capable, and professional. But in order to keep Jing Yiran safe, Jing Yichen had arranged to drug the two men through their food because of which they ended up sleeping on duty.
Chapter 656 - Adoration
Chapter 656: Adoration
Mu Qing was drowsy and his hair was unkempt. His cartoon PJ had creases on it. He had apparently just gotten up from bed.
Jing Yiran apparently had no idea that Mu Qings PJ was bought because of Zhao Anan, so that they could have a couple PJ together. When he saw him wearing such childish nightwear, he could not but look down at him for his taste in clothes.
And when he saw his drowsy look of drowsiness, Jing Yiran got even more annoyed.
Can you hold the de steadily? Lu has a bullet in her shoulder. It is not a small surgery! Can you do it properly or not? Get someone else if you cant!
Hearing the words, Mu Qing walked away before he even put on the asepsis take. Alright then, get someone else. Or you can just leave it inside. I am not serving you anymore. And dont make me take out the bullet from your head, too. I cant even hold the de steadily. What if I ruin your head?
Furious as he was, Jing Yiran had to tolerate him at this moment. Mu Qing was the best doctor, after all!
If he had a bullet in his shoulder, he would have left the bullet inside to rust than to beg him. But it was Lu who needed his help and he could not allow her to tolerate the pain because of his imprudent temper.
Jing Yiran took a deep breath, and suppressed the anger inside his heart. He held Mu Qings hand and said in a sincere tone, I was too impulsive just now. I apologize for what I said. I was just worried that you would be too sleepy to do the surgery properly. I meant nothing else.
Mu Qing got startled by the huge contrasting behavior of Jing Yiran.
What happened? Why was Jing Yiran being so humble today and he even apologized to him? Would the sun rise from the west tomorrow morning?
Jing Yiran had never spoken in such a polite way ever. He was a bad-tempered person. When he said that he was not going to remove the bullet for him, Jing Yiran would have punched him, under normal circumstances.
Mu Qing had been punched by Jing Yiran numerous times!
But Jing Yiran, who had been behaving like a demon a second ago, was now a gentle sheep. Mu Qing was taken aback.
But since he had apologised, Mu Qing could not continue to hold a grudge.
He threw a strange look at Lu and patted her unwounded shoulder with a smile. He then asked sincerely. How did you do it?
Lu was confused. What?
Was he asking about how did she manage to kill Tang Shunian? How did Mu Qing know about this?
How did you tame a lion and turn him into a dog? Teach me as well, please! Maybe he could adopt the same method to tame Zhao Anan.
Lu got even more confused. She looked around and blinked. Where are the lion and the dog?
Mu Qing became speechless. Lu was still so difficult to talk to.
Seeing her dumb expressions, Mu Qing truly wondered how she managed to get Jing Yiran to be her man.
But Jing Yiran had understood what Mu Qing meant. He red at Mu Qing and asked in a very unfriendly tone. Doctor Mu, are you so hical as to ask the private matters of your patient?
Knowing that he was not in the position to give a proper answer, Mu Qing said with a bright smile, I am just being friendly. Lets go to the operation room and take out the bullet. I need to go back and sleep before doing more operations tomorrow!
...
Jing Yichen, Shangguan Ning and Jing Rui soon arrived home.
Their home had been thoroughly cleaned and the stained carpet had been reced by a new one. The three men whom Lu had killed were gone as well.
But Jing Yichen did not go to that bedroom. Instead, they changed to another bedroom that was slightly smaller than the major bedroom. This one would make Ning feelfortable.
Shangguan Ning actually did not care that the master bedroom had been the battlefield between Lu and Tang Shunian. She was no longer a weak woman. She was barely affected by these small things and could confront blood in a poised manner.
Jing Rui had already fallen asleep on the way home. The nanny had no idea what had happened when she was asleep. Lu had drugged her and she remained in a deep slumber all throughout.
Tang Shunians aim had not been her but Shangguan Ning, so it was safe for her to stay at home. Lu had been here after all, and she could keep the nanny protected, otherwise Shangguan Ning would not have dared to ask the nanny to stay back.
Jing Rui had fallen asleep, but Shangguan Ning was not at all sleepy.
She put Jing Rui in the baby room and went to the study.
Jing Yichen was dealing with what had happened today. Tang Shunian died at the hospital and many others were either dead or injured. So he needed to arrange many forces to smoothen out the situation.
When he saw Shangguan Ning entering the room, he hung up the phone. He walked up to her and asked in a gentle tone. Still awake?
Leaning against Jing Yichens shoulders, Shangguan Ning said in a soft voice, I want to stay with you.
She adored him and depended on him so much that Jing Yichen felt his heart melt.
He took her hand and led her to the table. He sat down and held her in his arms. He said guiltily, Did I startle you tonight?
Shangguan Ning nodded and then shook her head instantly.
She might feel a bit uneasy, because it had been a very intensive night. Although she and Jing Rui had been in the tank-like car which Jing Zhongxiu had given her, she had still been worried.
It was because Jing Yichen had been in B City and didnt return for a while.
When he was not by her side, she felt her heart feeling empty.
But then Jing Yichen appeared in front of her with a helicopter within half an hour and then took her and Jing Rui to Jing Yirans vi.
She could have gone home with Jing Rui but she did not want to be away from Jing Yichen so she went there with him.
You would never know how much someone meant to you unless you experienced something monumental together. Shangguan Ning had not expected that she could be a clingy woman until now. She simply did not want to be away from Jing Yichen for even a minute now.
Maybe it was because of her deceased mother that she had been strong and independent since childhood.
Even after Jing Yichen married her, she did not depend on him despite her deep love for him.

Chapter 657: A Lower Position

But the recent happenings in the past few days had shaken her up. Every night, Jing Yichen would go out to deal with matters in person and when Lu could not be reached, he went to find her.
Shangguan Ning was very scared that Jing Yichen would again fall into Tang Shunians trap and had been very worried.
She did not feel assured until she learnt about Tang Shunians death.
She did not want to leave Jing Yichen, and hoped that she could be in his arms all the time and that he would not go anywhere.
Jing Yichen knew that Shangguan Ning had always been very understanding and never disurbed him when he was at work.
But today she broke this habit, and came to him when he was dealing with work. Obviously, she had been emotionally affected.
Jing Yichen got concerned, and held her even tighter.
Finishing Tang Shunian made him feel much more rxed. That man had always been a thorn in his heart, especially when he had his eyes on his woman. He had been very good at hiding himself and killing him was not easy.
Lu yed a very important role and he would ask her what she needed in return, when he got time.
He might not express the willingness to give an award in front of Jing Yiran, but he was definitely going to reward her for aplishing such a difficult task.
When his biggest threat in the form of Tang Shunian was gone and his wife was lying in his arms, Jing Yichen could finally rx.
He would not have been sitting in the study if he didnt need to wrap up the remaining affairs. He would haveid upon therge bed with her in his arms.
Luckily, his men were capable enough to deal with different things by themselves so he did not need to do everything in person. After he gave his men some orders, he was almost finished with the work for today.
Wrapping up thest call, he picked up his quiet wife and walked into the bedroom.
On the bed, Jing Yichen caressed her back softly as he said, Dont be scared, Ning. I am always going to be by your side.
Shangguan Ning wiggled a little and found a cozy position in his arms. With her arms around his waist, she finally fell asleep.
The following morning, Jing Yichen found that Shangguan Ning was still clinging to him and was refusing to let go.
A smile hovered over his face. Great, his woman would not leave him alone now.
Littlezy girl, still not getting up? The sun is shining brightly!
Jing Yichen spanked Shangguan Nings bouncy bottom and kissed her smooth forehead.
His woman had be increasingly beautiful. She had no makeup on yet her skin looked wless against the morning sunlight. He simply could not have enough of her.
Because of thete hours on the previous night, Shangguan Ning was feeling very sleepy. She opened her eyes drowsily and asked in azy tone. What time is it now? I am so sleepy...
Seeing her lovely look, Jing Yichen said with a gentle voice, It is okay, just sleep till whenever you want.
It was past nine in the morning, and was quitete for Shangguan Ning who often got up quite early. Jing Yichen did not want her to get up now, when he saw her feeling drowsy.
But even if Jing Yichen was not willing to, someone else woke her up.
Jing Ruis whining arose from the nursery. It seemed that he had gotten hungry!
Jing Yichen shook his head with a smile.
Hearing Jing Ruis cry, Shangguan Ning woke up suddenly. Instead of holding Jing Yichen, she got out of the nket and ran to the nursery without even putting her shoes on. She kept saying, Ruirui, I am here, Ruirui, lets eat...
A minute ago, Jing Yichen had thought that he held an irreceable ce in his wifes heart but her son reced him so easily. As soon as Shangguan Ning heard Jing Ruis cries, she would instantly forget him.
Feeling helpless, Jing Yichen picked up Shangguan Nings slippers and followed her into the nursery.
The nanny saw the whole familye inside, so she went to the kitchen, to help Sister Lan and Sister Fang in making breakfast. Both Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were in the babys room, and she thought that she should not be there.
Jing Rui stopped fussing after being fed. He looked at Shangguan Ning and smiled at her. He must be feeling really pleased.
Seeing her son happy, Shangguan Ning patted Jing Rui softly and praised him. Ruirui is a nice little boy. You will definitely be an excellent kid in the future!
Jing Yichen bent down and put the slippers on for Shangguan Ning, carefully. Didnt I tell you not to get anxious. Put on your shoes, the floor is cold.
Shangguan Ning smiled at him and said smugly, Well, you are here, arent you?
Jing Yichen was amused by her tone. So I am your nanny who puts on the shoes for you?
Shangguan Ning raised her eyebrows. Are you not willing to do it?
Of course I am! Jing Yichen expressed his faith quickly and said, I am at your service, mydy. I can put on the shoes for you or even be your shoes!
Shangguan Ningughed happily. It was always good to have him around.
The world was full of brightness!
Jing Yichen left for work after breakfast. There were still a few things remaining to deal with regarding Tang Shunian. Jing Yichen would take over all the properties and forces that used to belong to him. He needed to gain back the 100 billion yuan which Shangguan Ning lost to him.
It was not a small amount. Tang Shunian died before he could find time to spend it. It was not going to be very difficult to get back the money, although there was some different type of trouble.
Tang Shunian had built numerous underground ces in B City, and all of them belonged to Jing Yichen now.
These underground worlds tended to have many cers, suitable for hidden underground moves.
After Tang Shunian was finished, Jing Yichen left the rest of the work to Knife Lee, who was able to get those mafias to be his followers, considering that he used to be one of the gangsters earlier.

Jing Yichen went to find Lu after he rushed back from B City.
When she got to know that he was here, Lu understood that he was here to award her. In the beginning, she was meant to get nothing, because finishing Tang Shunian was her mission. But recently, she and Jing Yiran had been living a difficult life, so she asked Jing Yichen for some money.
She had been living at the Jing Family before and ate her meals there too. The butler of the Jing Family would always get everything that she needed, including clothes and weapons, so she didnt have to spend even a single penny. Also, Jing Zhongxiu always gave her monthly allowance so she never worried about money. When she started to live on her own, she realized how quickly money could be spent.
The property management fees, alongwith the water and power expenses of the vi were quite a lot. In addition, she had to eat a lot and spend on bullets, guns and micro-bombs etc.
Without money, she could do nothing.
Jing Yichen gave her 5 million yuan without hesitation, which was the highest payment Lu had ever received as a killer.
At around five, Jing Yichen returned home.
Although he had numerous matters to handle, he postponed all of them without hesitation.
There would always be things for him to deal with, and it was impossible for him to finish all of them. However, he needed to spare time for his wife and child during the evening.
If he kept himself busy the whole time, the little guy would forget about him.
After dinner, the family went for a walk by the seashore.
Finally, they had no strangers following them and that made Shangguan Ning feel rxed and she smiled more brightly than before.
She happily taught her son how to identify the sea and the sailboats as well as colors of swimming rings and shells.
Jing Yichen followed her with the baby pram, feeling satisfied and happy.
It had been a long time since they freely went out to have fun. He had got way too many enemies who kept causing him trouble, and he had asked his wife and son to stay at home in case they ran into danger.
Luckily, Shangguan Ning was a very understanding girl who neverined. And she did not always crave to have fun outside. Most of the time, she was sitting at home quietly and supporting him.
Jing Rui was very curious about everything. It was all new to him. The little guy got quite excited by the wonderful things and kept giggling.
The evening breeze was a bit cold. Fearing that Jing Rui would get unwell, Shangguan Ning did not let him stay out for long and went home happily with Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen said in a low voice as he saw them having fun by the seashore. If you like it, then lets have fun here every single day.
Shangguan Ning understood how he was feeling at the moment.
She smiled, We spent too much time at home this time. But if we are here every day, then it wont be interesting enough. Ruirui is still young and too much exposure to wind would make him sick. When he grows a bit older, we can have more fun outside.
Shangguan Ning was telling the truth. She had been living by the seashore since childhood, and didnt think that ying by seashore was too much fun every single day. But spending half a month indoors, being trapped for so long, she felt great to be among lively people and feel the breeze on her face.
What was rare, was dear.
Jing Yichen did not say a thing, but swore to himself that he was going to create a safe environment for his wife and son, so that they could y outdoors whenever they wanted instead of worrying about danger.
Now, the next step would be to finish Yang Muyan.
These two were his worst enemies, and had not stopped pestering his family. He had many other rivals who were out to get him, but none of them crossed the line. They only fought on the business field rather than getting family involved.
Shangguan Ning was now back to her quiet and cozy life. Soon Jing Rui would turn 100 days old. The Jing Family held arge birthday banquet where many noblities attended the function and Jing Rui was the star of the evening.
He was not intimidated at all and did not fear any of the strangers. Instead, he kept smiling at them and the guests praised him for being very smart.
Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan were both very d to see such an heir of the Jing Family.
But Jing Yichen was still as cold-looking as before. He did not like it when other people stared at his baby boy and hated it when Jing Ruis hands were touched and caressed.
The banquetsted for a long time but Jing Yichen took his son away as if someone was out to steal his boy. That made Shangguan Ning feel quite helpless.
She had never seen a father protecting his son in such a way, and the same went for the guests who got startled as well.
Everyone liked ying with babies, and it was so unreasonable not to allow him to be touched.
But those who were at the banquet shared a very close rtionship with the Jing Family, so they knew Jing Yichens nature.
Jing Rui was supposed to be out there only for a bit. Being young and as the heir of the Jing Family, he had to be well protected instead of being exposed to the public too much.
Jing Yichen had always been under strict protection of Jing Zhongxiu, and his information was not revealed to the public. Very few people had known what he was like when he grew up.
The banquet was quite lively. Zhao Anan, the Old Lady of the Zhao Family and Zhao Zhao were here and they were sharing the table with Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun.
The Mu Family were sitting at the next table, where Grandpa Mu and his grandsons were all gathered. People kept toasting to Grandpa Mu, hoping to tter him on this rare asion. He was a legendary doctor who barely stepped out.
Zhao Anan was eating distractedly as she kept ncing at the Mu Family. But Mu Qing was nowhere to be seen.
Strange that Mu Qing was not here, when his entire family was.
He and Jing Yichen were good brothers. Why was he absent on Jing Ruis birthday banquet?
Chapter 659
Chapter 659: He didnte
What happened to Mu Qing?
Zhao Anan was nervous and anxious.
No way. He had always been in good health, and he was a doctor himself. Even if he was sick, he would recover very quickly. If she couldnt even attend a banquet, what kind of illness would she have?
Or was it because he was so disobedient that he left the hospital for her and went to the United Kingdom to find her like looking for a needle in a haystack, whichpletely angered mu Wensheng and his parents?
This possibility was very high.
Zhao Anan knew mu Wenshengs temper very well. He valued filial piety very much and had always treated Mu Qing as the heir of family mu. He had spent more time and effort on him than any of his sons and grandsons. He had taken care of Mu Qing all the time, taught him medical skills, and even taught him how to manage the hospital and get along with the patients.
Mu Qing had given up his career as a doctor and his position as the director of the hospital just for a woman who didnt want to marry him. The old man would be so angry.
He had spent so much effort to raise such an excellent grandson, but he had been ruined by her. It was possible that he had lost his love for Mu Qing.
Mu Wensheng had a bad temper and could even be said to be temperamental. Even Jing Yichen was a good boy in front of him. Zhao Anan was also very scared of him. It was normal for him to put his favorite grandson in the cold Pce.
Zhao Anans absent-minded look was noticed by the olddy. She looked at her daughter and saw the smile in each others eyes. Then, they ate as if nothing had happened.
But Zhao Anan was not the only one who noticed that Mu Qing was not there.
Mu Qing was mu Wenshengs favorite grandson. In the past, the old man would take Mu Qing with him wherever he went and would introduce him to everyone in a high-profile way. Later, Mu Qings medical skills rose to fame in the medical field and even seemed to surpass the old man s, so everyone respected him very much and would not neglect him just because he was young.
Mu Qing was highly skilled in medicine. Although he was not as good as mu Wensheng in general, he was better than mu Wensheng in some aspects. Besides, he was gentle and would usually not refuse when people asked him for help.
......
Mu Wensheng hadnt been visiting patients for a long time. He wanted to see a doctor. Mu Qing was the best doctor in A city now. It was strange that family mu was on good terms with him.
Old man, you really have a house full of children and grandchildren. Youre so blessed! However, why dont I see the most powerful doctor in your family, miracle doctor mu?
Mu Qings master was mu Wensheng. He had saved many lives and cured many peoples chronic diseases, so he was given the title of miracle doctor mu.
Mu Wensheng also looked very happy today. Those who didnt know him would think that his great-grandson was over a hundred years old!
With a Sage-like appearance, he smiled and said,What miracle doctor? dont call him that. He doesnt deserve to be called that! But at least hes diligent and willing to study hard. Theres a surgery in the hospital today, and he cant leave. Hes probably busy now, or I wouldve definitely brought this kid here!
Hearing the old mans words, the crowd was enlightened and they admired Mu Qing even more.
He was not only a good doctor, but also a very professional one. He would rather not attend such an important 100th-day banquet of family Jing than to perform surgery on a patient. This was a blessing to them.
Miracle doctor mu really lives up to his name. Hes so attentive to his patients. Hes really a good doctor taught by the old man!
Yeah, my old man had a heart attack once and was sent to the hospital at 2 am. It was miracle doctor mu who saved him. He even came to the banquet today!
Compliments and gratefulness came one after another, and the atmosphere in the banquet hall was very good for a while.
Zhao Anan was the only one who didnt believe that Mu Qing couldnt attend the banquet because he was in surgery.
From what she knew about Mu Qing and the hospital, even if there was an operation that had to be done today, Mu Qing did not have to be the chief surgeon.
Family MUs Hospital was not run by him alone. There were many well-known doctors in the country and even excellent foreign doctors who treated patients. These doctors were the best in their fields and didnt need Mu Qing to perform ordinary surgeries.
Zhao Anan thought that mu Wensheng said that because he didnt want Mu Qing to be embarrassed. After all, he was his grandson and a part of the MU family. If he told them that Mu Qing didnt take him to the banquet because he didnt like him, mu Wensheng would be humiliated.
Zhao Anan bit the spoon in her mouth and couldnt eat any of the delicious dishes.
Mu Qing had angered mu Wensheng because of her, so he couldnt even be the director of family MUs Hospital now. He could only be an ordinary doctor at family MUs Hospital. His status had plummeted.
She didnt feel much about the change in position before because she had never been in that position before and didnt know the huge difference.
Now that she had be the principal of University of X, she finally understood the difference between a principal and an ordinary teacher. The principals words could decide the life and death of a teacher.
In a school, the same course was oftenpeted with several teachers. Some teachers had a good rtionship or were very outstanding, so they could choose the course they liked to teach. On the contrary, they could only teach the course they didnt like or were not good at. As a result, the future evaluation would naturally be different.
The principal had a lot of power. He could decide which teacher would teach which subject and which teacher could be promoted from lecturer to professor or Associate Professor.
Thinking about it, theplicated rtionship of interests in the hospital was the same.
A doctor would definitely be under the control of the director. The director had a lot of power and could be respected and fawned on by others. An ordinary doctor might be made difficult by many people.
Although Mu Qing was a member of the MU family, there were still people who ttered the strong and stepped on the weak in this society. Maybe some people would provoke him and make things difficult for him when they saw that he was not the Dean anymore.
Zhao Anan felt very bad. She felt that she owed Mu Qing so much that she had no other way to repay him except by giving herself to him.
But she didnt know how long she could live, so she didnt dare to marry Mu Qing.
In the past, Zhao Anan would forget about her troubles and be a Happy Foodie whenever she saw something delicious. But today, she couldnt feel happy at all. She couldnt even tell whether the food was sweet or sour.
Chapter 660
Chapter 660: Chapter 660-going forward
When the banquet was over and family mu was about to leave, Zhao Anan gathered her courage and ran to mu Wensheng. She said,Grandpa mu, I have a few words to say to you.
Unexpectedly, mu Wensheng didnt give her any face at all. He said angrily,You brat, youve caused my grandson to suffer so much. I have nothing to say to you! Go and y somewhere else!
Old master had rejected her in front of so many people of family mu. Zhao Anans face turned as red as a pigs liver. She felt so ashamed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
However, mu Wensheng had always been like this. He didnt even give face to Jing Tianyuan and often argued with him. He wouldnt speak to a girl like her in a nice way.
Luckily, Zhao Anan had been lectured by him more than once, and even Jing Yichen had been lectured by him, so it was not too embarrassing for her. She took a deep breath and quickly threw the awkwardness of being rejected to the back of her mind.
She grabbed mu Wenshengs sleeve and stomped her feet like the others.Grandpa mu, I really do have something to tell you. Just a few words, I wont waste your time! If you dont listen, Ill hold your arm and cry!
Well, mu Wensheng was already in his seventies and eighties, and no one had ever acted so coquettishly to him in his life, which made him feel ufortable!
He didnt have a daughter, only a granddaughter, Mu Xin. But Mu Xin had been obedient since she was a child. She would never go east or west, and she would never pull his sleeve and act coquettishly to him.
Among his grandsons, Mu Qing was the only one who was more active. The rest of them were all obedient and steady. They were not like Zhao Anan, who held her arms and threatened to cry for him.
Zhao Fu was watching them from not far away. Although she was old, she stood straight and looked calm, but her eyes were sharp like a knife. Mu Wensheng had a headache dealing with this old woman. The Zhao family seemed to have the genes to be unreasonable when they went crazy.
He pulled his sleeve out of Zhao Anans hand and waved for the MU family to leave.
The people of the MU family respected the old master very much. When he asked them to leave, no one had any intention of staying. They quickly disappeared from the hall.
The olddy of the Zhao family had wanted to stay to protect her granddaughter, but Zhao Anan turned to her and Zhao Zhao and said,Grandma, you and mom can go out. I want to talk to Grandpa mu in private.
......
The olddy hesitated for a while, as if she was afraid that mu Wensheng would make things difficult for her precious daughter. But Zhao Anans eyes were full of pleading. She softened and said to mu Wensheng,Mu, youre not allowed to yell at my granddaughter. If she loses a single hair, Ill never let you off!
After saying that, she red at mu Wensheng and then turned around to leave, which made mu Wensheng so angry that his beard was shaking.
It was Zhao Anan who had asked him to talk to her, and he did not force her to stay. Why was she angry at him? It was really an undeserved disaster!
Why hasnt Zhao Fus temper changed at all? I finally know why youre so stubborn. It turns out that youre from the Zhao family!
Zhao Anan quickly smiled.My grandma has always been like this. But she is very kind. She is just a little straightforward. This also shows that we dont treat you as an outsider. Im just like my grandma, my temper is a little straightforward, please forgive me!
Usually, she would think of all kinds of ways to make the olddy happy at home, and she had her own way of acting coquettishly and pitifully.
The old man didnt appreciate it at all. He said angrily,Please don t. Youd better treat me as an outsider. My grandson has been tormented by you to the point where he doesnt even look like a human anymore. He doesnt even care about the hospital anymore, and he doesnt even study medicine anymore. He only thinks about Womens Affairs all day long. I dont dare to be a family with you!
Zhao Anan knew that mu Wensheng had a bad impression of her and she knew that he would scold her if she stayed to talk to him alone. But she still felt very sad when she heard what he said.
She thought that she was thick-skinned enough and that she was invincible. She didnt expect that her heart was still so fragile. Mu Wenshengs harsh words made her so sad that she wanted to escape.
Mu Wensheng was well aware of his sharp tongue. Jing Tianyuan was the only one who could stand him. The others were all scared of him. Even Mu Qing avoided him, for fear of being scolded.
Zhao Anan was a girl and the only child of the Zhao family. She had been pampered since she was a child and had never suffered much. It was probably the first time that she had been scolded like this.
However, she was still standing there and did not run out crying.
It seemed that she still had feelings for Mu Qing.
Mu Wensheng was an experienced man. He guessed that Zhao Anan must have wanted to talk to him alone for Mu Qing. She was even willing to be scolded for Mu Qings sake. At least she had some conscience.
He felt a little better.
His most outstanding grandson was too infatuated with Zhao Anan. Mu Wenshengs hair had turned white because of this. Zhao Anan had no idea what Mu Qing had done for her. He even kneeled for a whole night in order to make his father agree to marry Zhao Anan. The next day, his knees were so swollen that he could not even walk.
Not only that, every time Zhao Anan made a mess, Mu Qing would clean up the mess for her and put in a good word for her in the MU family. He said that Zhao Anan had bought the gifts for him as a gift.
Did they really think that he was so old that he didnt know anything?
His grandson loved and protected this girl as if she was his darling. He had been looking forward to marrying her. He didnt care about the possibility of her cancer returning at any time. He didnt even want to have a child with her. But Zhao Anan? She either quarreled with Mu Qing all day, cut off all ties with him, or left home.
Mu Qing didnt feel sorry for himself, but he, as a grandfather, did.
There were so many good girls in A city, but none of them could be as good as Zhao Anan. They were all gentle, kind, healthy and smart girls. Any one of them would be better than Zhao Anan.
Mu Wensheng had been through this. He had been married twice in his life and had two wives. He knew what kind of woman was the most suitable for life. In his opinion, the most important thing was for his wife to take good care of the family. With a good wife, his future life would be much more rxed and happy.
Chapter 661
Chapter 661: Chapter 661-trouble again
With Zhao Anans personality, even if she married Mu Qing, they would still argue with each other and her grandson would be the one who would be sad.
Even if Zhao Anan was healthy, mu Wensheng didnt want her to be his granddaughter-inw.
This girl was a happy girl sometimes, but she was a thorn in her side most of the time. If she got married, Mu Qing would definitely treat her like a little ancestor. This was not a marriage, but a torture!
That was the fundamental reason why Mu Wensheng had never supported Mu Qing marrying Zhao Anan.
But after a while, he realized that Mu Qing really liked Zhao Anan. He talked about her all day long and begged him to help her. What else could he say?
This was the grandson that he had brought up, the most outstanding member of the MU family. Although he often hit and scolded him, he actually loved this grandson very much. Since he liked Zhao Anan so much, he had to let him be.
Mu Wensheng was not old-fashioned, he supported his grandson in pursuing his true love.
Of course, he didnt mind ying the bad guy and stimting his grandsons true love.
What, you cant take it anymore after the old man only said a few words?
Mu Wensheng saw Zhao Anans eyes were red, so he continued,I dont know what that little bastard sees in you, but he kept pestering me to agree to let you marry into the MU family. In the end, I agreed, but you didn t! He thinks Im old, so hes looking for fun! Ill beat him to death if he tries to fool me again! His father was more willing to punish him by making him kneel until he realized his mistake! Since you dont want to marry my grandson, if you dare to appear in front of him again, Ill beat you up as well!
Zhao Anan was forgetful and forgot what mu Wensheng had said in a short while. She just mumbled in her heart, Mu Qing was a little rascal. She didnt know what he was talking about, but he was scolding her too!
After a while, she realized that Mu Qing had been punished by his father to kneel because of her.
She didnt know that this had happened before and thought that it had happened in the past two days. She said anxiously,You cant punish him! This has nothing to do with him, its all my fault, Im the one who implicated him! Grandpa mu, please dont give up on Mu Qing!
......
Mu Wensheng felt strange. When did he give up on Mu Qing?
This was his most outstanding grandson. In the future, the medical skills passed down by the MU family would depend on him to carry forward. How was that possible?
Although Grandpa did not understand how Zhao Anan hade to such a ridiculous conclusion that he would give up on Mu Qing, it did not stop him from tricking Zhao Anan. He was much more cunning than Zhao Anan.
That little rascal is so disappointing that he doesnt even want to be the Dean anymore. If I dont give up on him, do I have to wait for him to bring disaster to my Mu family? Its easy for you to say that! Didnt he like to go to United Kingdom? I, mu Wensheng, have many grandsons. If this one doesnt know how to do it, there will be others. When I get back, Ill kick that useless man out of the family and never let him step into the MU family again!
Zhao Anan almost burst into tears when she heard that.
She had said that Mu Qing must have angered old master mu because of her and now old master mu didnt like him anymore and even wanted to drive him out of the MU family.
God, he would be so sad if Mu Qing was driven out of the MU family. He had always respected the old master and was proud of his family name. He had taken his responsibilities very seriously and had always wanted family MUs Hospital to rise to the next level. But now, everything had been destroyed by her!
What should I do?
Zhao Anan grabbed grandpas sleeve and shook it hard.Grandpa mu, good Grandpa, please dont make things difficult for Mu Qing. Its all my fault for not being sensible. Hes your grandson, and you raised him with your own hands. How can you give him up just like that? hes the most talented doctor in the MU family! I promise that I wont look for him again. I wont disturb him while hes studying medicine, and I wont make trouble in the future. Please let him be the director, I beg you!
Mu Wensheng felt dizzy and tried to grab his sleeve in a hurry, but Zhao Anan wouldnt let go.
Mu Wensheng and Zhao Anan exerted their strength and a crisp sound was heard. A sleeve was torn off.
Zhao Anan was stunned! She looked at the soft sleeve in her hand in disbelief.
She was done for. She had caused more trouble before she could solve Mu Qings problem.
This time, the old man would be even angrier.
She was both angry and anxious. Which unscrupulous shop made these clothes? the quality was too poor!
She was so gentle ... Alright, with just a little force, one of her sleeves was torn off. She was really going to get killed!
Mu Wensheng was also dumbfounded!
This girl would feel ufortable if she didnt cause trouble, right?
This was the new clothes he had just changed into today. It was made from the best linen fabric that the eldest daughter-inw had specially bought for him. It was tailored for him and was different from the clothes he had bought outside!
The clothes werefortable and breathable, and represented the filial piety of his daughter-inw. He had been showing off to Jing Tianyuan today, which had made the old man so jealous. He hadnt liked her enough, but the girl had torn it apart!
Seeing that Grandpa was so angry that his beard was standing up, Zhao Anan apologized to him immediately.Grandpa mu, Im sorry, Im sorry. I really didnt mean it. Please dont be angry! Ill give you an even better er. No, no, no, Ill give you ten, ten!
Ten? So what if you have money! You brat, this old man really wants those torn clothes of yours! Hurry up and get out of here, or youll tear off my other sleeve! If that Rascal Mu Qing dares to mention marrying you again, I will beat him up so badly that even his parents wont be able to recognize him. You want to be the Dean? In his dreams, family MUs Hospital doesnt want such an irresponsible doctor like him anymore. He can go wherever he likes!
This was all her fault, how could Mu Qing be involved in it?
This old man couldnt tell right from wrong!
She had torn his clothes. Why did she have to drive Mu Qing out of family MUs Hospital? it was an undeserved disaster for Mu Qing.
Mu Wensheng didnt care what Zhao Anan was thinking. He was about to leave angrily after saying those words.
Zhao Anan wouldnt let him go so easily. She grabbed mu Wenshengs arm. Seeing him pull his arm away, she sat down on the ground and held grandpas thigh tightly.If you drive Mu Qing away from the hospital, I will not let you go today!
Chapter 662
Chapter 662: Chapter 662 pestering
Mu wen had lived for a long time and everyone had to call him old miracle doctor with great respect. Even Jing zhongxiu had to call him uncle mu every time he saw him. No one dared to tear off his sleeve and hold on to his leg to stop him from leaving.
He had been saving peoples lives all his life and had a high reputation. He had never met someone as shameless as Zhao Anan.
He had really suffered the most shock in his life today!
If he married her in the future, he would have a heart attack because of Zhao Anan.
Mu Wenshengs forehead was full of sweat. He tried to pull his legs out of Zhao Anans hands, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldnt get them out. This girl was holding him like a ma.
What a disgrace!
The old man was so angry that even his fingers were shaking.Zhao Anan, let go of me! If you dont let go, Ill kick you! Dont let that old woman Zhao Fue to the MU family and cause trouble if you get injured by me!
Zhao Anan held mu Wenshengs pants even tighter and said stubbornly,If you dont agree, I wont let go! If you kick me and injure me, Ill definitely go home andin, saying that you dont respect your elders and bully a youngdy like me!
Mu Wensheng was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
This d * MN girl, did she know how to talk! Dont you know how to speak? This was how Zhao Fu taught his granddaughter?
Did she even have a brain? how dare she say something like that!
If this was his own granddaughter, he would definitely skin her alive!
Besides, he was just saying those words in a fit of anger. Would he really hurt her? He was just trying to scare her, but she actually turned around and threatened him!
......
He was really infuriated!
Thats fine. If you have the ability, well just wait here and see who canst longer! If I was threatened by a little girl like you today, how could I be a role model for the children and grandchildren of family mu in the future?
Zhao Anan pouted and said,Alright, Ill drag it out then. Anyway, Ill be sitting and youll be standing, so its much easier for me than you! Youll definitely be the first to admit defeat! If you dont let Mu Qing be the Dean, I will keep holding you like this. You can sleep standing here tonight.
She had always been carefree and fearless. Anyway, she had no intention of marrying into the MU family. Even if she had offended the old man today, it would not matter. She would just avoid him from now on. She did not believe that mu Wensheng woulde to the Zhao family to cause her trouble!
Mu Wenshengs face had turned red in anger. He was boiling with anger.
He should not have agreed to stay and listen to Zhao Anans nonsense! It was all Mu Qings fault. If it wasnt for him, he wouldnt have to suffer so much at his old age!
Not only did he get a piece of his sleeve torn off, he even choked on his food!
For so many years, no one had dared to talk back to him!
He had just realized that his sons, grandsons, and granddaughters were all so carefree. If they were all like Zhao Anan, the MU family would be in chaos.
Mu Wensheng suppressed the anger in his heart and said through gritted teeth,Bah! Hes the Dean? He only knows how to chase after you and doesnt do anything serious at all! Family MUs Hospital would close down sooner orter if he were to be the director. There was no way he could do that! He wasnt even fit to be a doctor, let alone a director! You are not worthy to be my grandson!
Although Zhao Anan said it happily, she was actually very anxious. She was here to plead for Mu Qing, not to cause him trouble. Grandpa was getting angrier and angrier. He even refused to let Mu Qing be a doctor. What was going on?
Besides, mu Wensheng was stubborn and had a bad temper. He was too difficult to deal with. She wondered how Mu Qing had survived under the old mans care all these years.
Zhao Anan thought for a moment, rolled her eyes and burst into tears.Wuwu ... Grandpa mu, dont be angry. Its all my fault, but I really want the best for Mu Qing! Hes so outstanding and smart. Itd be a pity if you gave up on him! In the past, I was insensible, so I always argued with him. Now that Ive grown up, I wont argue with him anymore! Please dont chase him away, okay? Where else could he go other than the MU family? Other than being a doctor, what else can he do?
She had no choice. She had already tried the hard way, so she could only try the soft way. She could always make the old man relent.
She couldnt just stay here forever. If the MU family saw that Grandpa mu didnt go out, someone woulde to look for him. Grandma would also see that she didnt go out, so she would definitelye back to look for her. If grandma saw this, she would definitely be scolded when she got home!
She bit her lip hard and grimaced in pain. Finally, she managed to squeeze out a few tears.
Those who didnt know would think that he was dead with his heart-wrenching cries!
Mu Wensheng was both angry and helpless. He had to admit that this girl was more capable than him. She was willing to give up everything for Mu Qing.
He was just joking. As she had said, what else could Mu Qing do other than being a doctor? he was not like Jing Yichen, who was not only a business genius, but also very knowledgeable. Mu Qing knew nothing about business except medical skills.
Even if Mu Qing was good at business, mu Wensheng wouldnt ask him to give up his medical skills and turn to business. It would be a disgrace to family mu!
Of course, he was lying to Zhao Anan, but Zhao Anan believed him and forced him to tell her the truth.
She was crying louder and louder now. If others came in and saw her crying, they would think that he had bullied Zhao Anan. Zhao Fu, in particr, would definitely give him a good scolding for bullying his granddaughter.
He didnt want to argue with that old woman.
It was the 100th-Day celebration of Jing Tianyuans great-grandson and he couldnt ruin it.
Mu Wensheng had a headache and could only say,Then you must promise to stay away from my grandson and never let him see you again. Otherwise, he will never forget you and will never marry anyone else!
Yes, yes, yes, I promise, I promise! I will never show up in front of Mu Qing again! Zhao Anan immediately made a promise.
Alright then, quickly let go! My legs are about to be broken by you!
How can I do that? Grandpa mu, you havent agreed to my request yet!
Ill agree. With this old mans reputation, I wont cheat you! In fact, he was scamming her!
Chapter 663
Chapter 663: The old man in a sorry state
What did you promise me?
Zhao Anan kept asking. She had to get to the bottom of it and mu Wensheng had to give her an urate answer, otherwise she would have made a scene for nothing.
The old man was almost in tears.
My pants are a set with my shirt, and they were all made by my daughter-inw. The material is very soft, and her needlework isnt particrly hard, so the stitches arent firm. If you tear off a leg of my pantster, where would I put my face?
Mu Wensheng clutched his pants with one hand and supported his forehead with the other. He said with a ck face,I promise you that I wont kick Mu Qing out of the MU family! Is that enough?
If this one is not enough, what else is there?
Mu Wenshengs face turned from white to red, and sweat dripped down from his head.I allow him to continue working as a doctor at family MUs Hospital! D * MN girl, let go! If you dont let go, Im really going to kick you!
His pants were almost pulled off by her!
Just these two arent enough, what else? Theres one more important thing! Zhao Anan was very happy. She grabbed the leg of grandpas trousers and shook it. Mu Wensheng was finally going to agree. Great! If Mu Qing could be the director again, he would be in power and would not be bullied by other doctors. He would be able to live a glorious life.
Mu Wensheng was very anxious.
It was this wretched girl who had pulled his sleeve off just now by swaying here and there. Now, she was shaking his thigh. Could it be that his pants were also at risk?
He was afraid of another ident, so he didnt care about his dignity and quickly said,Alright, alright, I promise you that Mu Qing will be the Dean! Hurry up and let go!
You must keep your word, you cant go back on your word!
......
I wont go back on my word!
Mu Qing will be the Dean today, we cant dy it!
Wretched girl, are you done yet!
Mu Wensheng gritted his teeth.Alright, today it is. No more dys!
Zhao Anan was so happy that she thought,Aiyaya, Grandpa mu, you are the best grandpa in the world! If only I had a grandfather like you, I would definitely be able to live for another ten years!
Mu Wensheng thought,thank God I dont have a granddaughter like you, or I would have lost ten years of my life!
Zhao Anan didnt know what was on mu Wenshengs mind. She saw that he looked terrible and wanted to stand up to apologize to the old man. But she had been sitting on the ground for too long and her legs were numb. She almost fell down.
Zhao Anan subconsciously wanted to grab something to bnce her body, but there was another sound.
Zhao Anan was stunned.
Mu Wensheng was also stunned.
His pants were torn in half by Zhao Anan, revealing one of the old mans white thighs.
Oh, Grandpa mu, Im so sorry, its all my fault! I used too much strength just now, but ... Your clothes are too weak!
Fine, she was evenining about the quality of his clothes!
The eldest daughter-inw was also a medical student, but her hobby was to make clothes. She had even learned from a master for a period of time. He had worn many clothes made by his daughter-inw in the past, and the other people in the family had also worn many, but this had never happened before. Hand-sewn clothes were certainly not as precise as machine-made clothes, but they would definitely not be torn apart!
Zhao Anan was too strong!
Mu Wensheng wanted to cry but had no tears. This brat definitely had a grudge against him in his previous life!
He didnt want to talk to Zhao Anan at this moment. He started to walk out quickly.
He had no other choice. If he walked too slowly, Zhao Anan might tear the other leg of his pants in half.
Zhao Anan was holding a sleeve and half of a pair of pants in her hands. She ran after him in a hurry.Grandpa mu, slow down and wait for me. I still have your sleeves and pants! You dont want it?
Hearing this, mu Wensheng, who was in front of them, walked even faster.
When they left the banquet hall and came to the small square outside, the whole Mu family was stunned when they saw their old mans appearance!
He had been in there for a while, so why was he in such a sorry state when he came out? With one arm and one leg bare, it really made one worry that old master Xuanji had encountered a robbery.
Todays banquet hall was in a five-star restaurant under Jingsheng enterprise. Who dared toe here and make trouble?
Before they could figure out what was going on, Zhao Anan ran out of the room and shouted Grandpa mu while waving the handkerchief ... Uh ... Cloth in her hand.
The clothes in Zhao Anans hands looked very familiar to the people of the MU family. When she got closer, she found that the clothes in her hands were exactly the same as the clothes that Grandpa mu was wearing.
No way, the old mans sleeves and pants were torn off by Zhao Anan?
Sure enough, Zhao Anan ran to Grandpa and said with an apologetic face,Grandpa mu, Im really sorry. Ill have someone buy you the toughest and most beautiful clothes tomorrow and send them to your house. I really didnt mean it. Your clothes are too fragile and I didnt use much strength!
This old man was so old, how could he run so fast! His body looked even better than hers. As expected of a godly doctor, he really knew how to maintain his health!
Hearing Zhao Anans apology, the miracle doctors face was as ck as the bottom of a pot.
The people of the MU family were surprised, but a middle-aged woman looked embarrassed.
As Zhao Anan finished her words, Jing Tianyuan, who was watching the show, suddenly burst intoughter.
Mu Wenshengs face darkened when he heard Jing Tianyuans mocking.
Ive really lost a lot of face today!
He was so embarrassed that Jing Tianyuan would definitely make fun of him in the future. He would lose face for a long time.
Zhao Anan was such a disaster. He had to stay away from her.
Seeing mu Wenshengs face getting worse and worse, Jing Tianyuan walked to Zhao Anans side and stoppedughing.
He patted Zhao Anans shoulder as if she was his granddaughter and said loudly,Well done, Anan! This old thing has been showing off his clothes to me today, saying that his daughter-inw made them for him. They arefortable and sweat-absorbing, and they are linen or something. I have long found his clothes unpleasant to the eye! I didnt expect you to be so bold as to tear his clothes apart. Its really satisfying!
Zhao Anan was surprised. It turned out that mu Wenshengs clothes were made by his daughter-inw.
Chapter 664 - For Mu Qing
Chapter 664: For Mu Qing
Oh no, the old man would be even angrier!
It was a rare act of filial piety for a daughter-inw to make clothes for her father-inw. Who would be willing to make clothes by themselves now? it was troublesome and time-consuming. How could it be more convenient than buying?
And mu Wenshengs clothes fit him very well. If Zhao Anan didnt tell her, she would have thought that he bought them. It could be seen that the person who made the clothes must have put in a lot of thought and effort to make it.
Zhao Anan felt deeply guilty. She seemed to have gotten into trouble again.
He hoped that Mu Qing would not be implicated this time.
Mu wen was so angry that he blew his beard and red at olddy Zhao, who was also watching the show not far away, and said,Look at how well youve taught my granddaughter. Im so angry!
The olddy of the Zhao family was not afraid of him at all. She defended Zhao Anan,My granddaughter is naturally the best. Isnt it just a set of clothes? How stingy! Our family has the most expensive clothes for Anan to tear for fun!
No matter who was right or wrong, he had to make mu Wensheng angry first. Even if he wanted to teach Zhao Anan a lesson, he had to do it behind closed doors. The olddy would definitely protect her precious daughter outside.
Mu Wensheng was angered by the olddy again. He got into his car and mmed the door shut, not bothering with them.
Zhao Anan stood there in a daze. A middle-aged woman walked out of the MU family and said to her with a smile,Anan, its fine. I made the clothes for the old man. Its inevitable that its not as strong if its hand-made. You dont have to take it to heart. Ill make a better body for the old manter. Hell be happy and forget about it.
Zhao Anan recognized the person in front of her. She was Mu Qings aunt. She didnt know her name. She only knew that she was a doctor, but she had never known that she could make clothes.
Zhao Anan had only seen her once and had little impression of her, but now she felt that she was such a nice person.
She had torn the clothes that she had painstakingly made and even said that the quality of the clothes was not up to standard. In the end, she was not angry at all and even consoled her.
......
Zhao Anan was so grateful that she called her aunt without thinking. Then she realized that she had followed Mu Qings lead.
However, he had already called her aunt. He couldnt take back the words aunt, right?
She blushed and said in embarrassment,Im so sorry. I was too reckless. Grandpa mu wanted to leave, so I held him back. As a result, I identally tore his clothes. I dont hold back, and Im straight to the point, so please dont take it to heart!
The middle-aged woman looked at Zhao Anan in surprise.
She remembered that the first time she met Zhao Anan, she was so rude and didnt have a calm look at all. She was so hot-headed like a boy.
Why did she change so much? not only was she dressed well and polite, but she also spoke in a much gentler and calmer manner. She even knew how to apologize sincerely. It was really rare.
What she didnt know was that Zhao Anan had be much calmer and more mature than she was a month ago. It was because she had been forced to learn it after she became the principal of University of X.
If she were to speak so arrogantly in school, those old vice-principals and department directors would not listen to her at all!
Zhao Zhao couldnt be like the olddy of the Zhao family, who didnt give face to family mu. She walked to Zhao Anan with a smile and said to the middle-aged woman in a familiar tone,Jingshu, Ive spoiled Anan. She mustve caused trouble again. Youve always made the best clothes, and now that Anan has ruined it, Im afraid youll have to go back and make two more for the old man! I can tell that the old man really likes the clothes you made!
The middle-aged woman smiled.Its okay. I think an an is a good girl. Shes getting prettier and prettier! The old man is very easy to please, and I also like to make clothes for him. Since he doesnt mind my poor craftsmanship, Ill make a few more pieces. Next time, Ill make them stronger!
The few of them exchanged a few more words before they dispersed. They each got into their own cars and went back to their own homes.
The moment Zhao Anan got home, the olddy pped her on the back.
She let out an exaggerated Aiyo and shouted,Grandma, are you trying to murder your own granddaughter?
Who said youre my biological granddaughter? I picked up your mother from the streets, and youre even more so!
The olddy was so angry that she didnt say anything.
Zhao Zhao, who was at the side, called out to her unhappily,mom, Yueyue.
It was fine to teach Zhao Anan a lesson, but why did he have to drag her into it? he even said that she was picked up from the streets. The older she was, the more lies she could tell.
The olddy thought that her daughter was going to plead for her granddaughter. She red at her daughter and said coldly,You shut up!
Zhao Zhao could only shut up obediently.
Although the olddy was old, the power of her whole body not only did not reduce, but it became more and more intimidating. With this re, even Zhao Zhao was scared by her until her little heart was beating fast.
Whats going on today? Why did you tear old man MUs clothes?
The olddy was very angry. This granddaughter of hers never let her worry less. She could say so many things when she was talking to mu Wensheng. She was a girl, but she had torn off his sleeves and trousers. How embarrassing!
If you want to talk, you should at least talk about a young and handsome guy, right? Why are you dragging an old man into this!
Zhao Anan was not convinced and said,I just pulled on his sleeve lightly, and it fell off. You cant me me for this! His clothes are made of the kind of linen that isnt strong, and theyre hand-sewn, so theyre not strong!
Nonsense! The olddy didnt believe Zhao Anans words. Even if mu Wenshengs clothes werent strong, they couldnt be torn easily. They were not made of cloth, but paper.
Even if you identally tore his shirt, what about his pants? How did you tear one of his pants in half?
Zhao Anan felt guilty and stammered, unable to say anything.
She couldnt tell him that she had shamelessly held onto mu Wenshengs leg and didnt let him go, so she had identally ruined his pants when she stood up.
If grandma knew that she had begged mu Wensheng for Mu Qing, she would have broken her legs tonight.
But just because Zhao Anan didnt say anything, it didnt mean that the olddy couldnt guess it.
She was not only smart, but also knew Zhao Anan very well. Seeing that she was not willing to tell her, she asked directly,Did you stay here to talk to that old man for Mu Qing?
Chapter 665
Chapter 665: A nightmare (1)
Zhao Anan denied it subconsciously,no, no! It has nothing to do with Mu Qing!
Then what did you tell mu Wensheng? Learn it from the beginning to the end, not a single word is to be missed!
Aiya, grandma, I was just chatting with the old man. Theres really nothing else, so please dont ask! Zhao Anan refused to admit it.
The olddy looked at her granddaughter and sneered. She was talking about daily life with mu Wensheng? Who are you trying to fool?
Alright, if you dont say anything today, we wont sleep. Well stay here and keep watch. Your mom cant sleep either. Shell apany you!
Zhao Zhao understood the olddys meaning and immediately pretended to be dissatisfied.Mom, how can we do that? I have to go to work tomorrow and n the sales for the second half of the year. Ill beughed at by my employees if I get dark circles under my eyes!
Seeing that the olddy was not going to rest until she said something, Zhao Anan had to surrender. She couldnt ask her mother to stay with her.
It was only after she became the principal that she realized how difficult it was for Zhao Zhao to manage family Zhaos jewelrypany. Although Jing Yichen had started to help out and Zhao Zhao was much more rxed than before, there were still many things that she had to deal with personally.
Zhao Zhao had always spoiled her and never forced her to run her ownpany. Zhao Anan used to think that it was reasonable, but now she didnt think so.
She looked at her furious grandma and sighed helplessly. Finally, she told her what had happened today.
After the olddy heard this, she was immediately furious.You went to plead with that old man for Mu Qing?
Zhao Anan stood there and nodded obediently, like a wife who had been bullied.
What is your rtionship with Mu Qing?
......
This ... Uh ... Theres no rtionship? Zhao Anan scratched her head.
Then what right do you have to plead for her? Mu Qing is mu Wenshengs grandson. Since when is it your turn to interfere in the business between the two of them?
Zhao Anan opened her mouth, but couldnt say a word.
Indeed, she was really an outsider. How could she have the right to interfere in the MU familys Affairs?
But she couldnt let mu Wensheng give up on Mu Qing and ruin his life.
Didnt you break up with Mu Qing? Wasnt it already broken? Why did she care about him now? Do you want him to know that it was you who helped him to be the director again? Then, hell be grateful to you, and hell never forget you, never willing to marry another woman?
The olddys words were a little harsh, but she was telling the truth.
If Mu Qing knew that it was Zhao Anan who had helped him, he would be very happy and would like her even more.
Zhao Anan was at a loss.I ... I ... I ... I didnt know there would be such a consequence!
If you dont want to marry him, then dont think about him in the future. Whether hes good or bad, alive or dead, it has nothing to do with you! Whats the matter with you being so persistent, youre disgracing me! Last time, I went to family mu and promised that old man that you would never have anything to do with Mu Qing again. Are you trying to embarrass me?
Oh my God, the more she exined, the more trouble she would get. She knew that she couldnt say anything about todays matter!
Zhao Anan stood there, feeling sad. Why was everything she did wrong? Now, he was acting like a thief when he showed concern for Mu Qing.
Wasnt grandmas request a little too strict?
I have strict requirements?
The olddy seemed to understand Zhao Anans expression and said angrily,I gave you two choices. If you choose one of them and refuse to marry Mu Qing, you cant choose the other one. How could there be two paths? You have four legs?
By the end of her speech, the olddy was already very tired.
She closed her eyes, and a glint shed in them. She said in a pained tone,Anan, you really cant see Mu Qing anymore, and you cant do anything for him behind his back. You must stay away from him and stop wasting his time. He has waited for you for so many years and is already in his thirties. He cant wait any longer. Mu Qing doesnt owe you anything. Dont hurt him anymore. Let him forget about you and marry someone else!
Zhao Anans face turned pale and she said in a hoarse voice,Grandma, I ...
She couldnt continue. What else could she say?
She actually knew what to do, but she just couldnt do it!
To make Mu Qing forget about her and marry another woman?
Yes, it should be like this.
But why did her heart hurt so much? why was she so upset?
That was her Mu Qing, the man she had loved for eleven years, and the man who had also loved her for eleven years!
She enjoyed Mu Qings love and care for her selfishly and didnt want any of it to be shared with other women. She despised herself and couldnt let go of her, but she had to pretend that she didnt care.
Her grandma was so cruel that she had been forcing her to either get married or cut off all contact with Mu Qing. But she seemed to be unable to do either. What should she do?
She didnt know how painful it was to give up on Mu Qing until thest moment.
When the olddy saw her granddaughter in this state, she was both heartbroken and sad. How good would it be if an an was healthy!
However, her current attitude was really problematic.
This child was too stubborn!
She had pushed Zhao Anan to this extent, but she still refused to say that she wanted to marry Mu Qing.
If she had made up her mind not to marry Mu Qing, she would not hold him up any longer.
The olddy had been putting on an act with Zhao Anan just now, but now she really felt that her granddaughter was being too mean.
If she had been in Zhao Anans shoes and someone had been pestering Zhao Anan but refused to marry her, she would have been extremely angry and hated that person.
It was perfectly normal that mu Wensheng didnt like Zhao Anan.
His most outstanding grandson had been working so hard for Zhao Anan that he even gave up his job as a doctor and went to the United Kingdom to look for Anan who had run away from home. It was already very kind of him not toe to the Zhao family to make trouble.
The olddy rubbed her temples tiredly and asked in a hoarse voice,Anan, let me ask you onest time. Do you really not want to marry Mu Qing? Your illness might not rpse for the rest of your life. If thats the case, would you still be willing to be alone for the rest of your life?
Zhao Anan bit her pale lips hard, fearing that she would say what she really wanted.
Perhaps she was the one who understood her body the best. Zhao Fu and Zhao Zhao both felt that the possibility of her not having a rpse was very high, but only she knew that the possibility was very low!
Chapter 666 - A nightmare (2)
Chapter 666: A nightmare (2)
Zhao Anan was a person who had a good nights sleep and rarely had dreams. But every time she had a dream, it would be a dream of her disease. And every dream was very simr, so real that it made her feel scared.
Most of the time, dreams could reflect a persons mental state, thoughts, and health.
If a person kept dreaming about falling off a cliff, it didnt mean that the persons career was going downhill. It just meant that the person had a heart problem and needed to find a doctor for treatment.
The simplest and most obvious example of a dream reflecting reality was that if ones feet were exposed when sleeping without a nket, then one would dream of standing in cold water or leaving the house without wearing shoes.
Of course, not all dreams had a practical meaning. You dreamed that you picked up a gold ingot, but you wouldnt really pick up a gold ingot the next day. In this case, you were usually crazy about money.
But Zhao Anans instinct told her that her dream, which was the reaction of her physical condition, would cause her illness to rpse.
That was the reason why she refused to marry Mu Qing.
She had had that dream many times, and she remembered the details clearly. So, when faced with life and death, she was really calm.
She had never mentioned that dream because she did not dare to.
She was afraid that if she said it, Zhao Zhao and Zhao Fu would be worried for her every day.
She would go to the hospital regrly for checkups. If there was a rpse, it would be discovered very quickly and she would be treated immediately.
She really wanted Mu Qing to forget her, instead of dying after they got married and leaving him to suffer alone.
If she died, the person who would suffer the most would not be Zhao Zhao or Zhao Fu, but Mu Qing.
......
After the death of her aunt, Zhao Qing, the person who suffered the most was not Zhao Fu, the mother, nor Zhao Zhao, the sister, but Jing zhongxiu, the husband.
Jing zhongxiu had been depressed for a long time. If he didnt have his son Jing Yichen, he might have done something stupid.
Even now, he had never fallen in love with another woman. He only had his aunt in his heart. Even when he was forced to marry Zhang Rong, he had never looked her in the eye.
In her uncles heart, her aunt was his only wife.
Zhao Zhao had once said that she didnt hate Jing zhongxiu anymore because he was the one who suffered the most after Zhao Qings death. He had used his life of loneliness to prove his love for Zhao Qing.
Zhao Qing was dead. Zhao Fu had been in pain for a long time, but she had already gotten over the pain of losing her daughter. Jing zhongxiu was the only one who had been living in the past. He didnt want to get over it either.
Zhao Anan didnt know if Mu Qing would be as devoted as Jing zhongxiu, or if he would never marry another woman after her death. But she knew that Mu Qing would be the one who suffered the most.
She didnt want Mu Qing to be like Jing zhongxiu, to be alone for the rest of his life and suffer the pain of losing his wife. She wanted Mu Qing to be happy.
If her aunt knew that her uncle was living such a painful life for her, she would probably be heartbroken.
There was dead silence in the living room. After a long time, Zhao Anan said in a dry voice,Grandma, I wont marry Mu Qing and I wont have anything to do with him in the future. Dont worry.
How could the olddy of the Zhao family be at ease? Zhao Anan had sworn this many times, but she could not let go!
Although she looked heartbroken and determined today, she would be there as soon as anything happened to Mu Qing tomorrow.
The olddy of the Zhao family had a headache. She finally understood Shangguan nings good intentions.
If she didnt force Zhao Anan, she would always be trapped in the trap that she had drawn for herself.
He hoped that Shangguan nings n would work, otherwise all his efforts would have been in vain.
The task that Shangguan ning had given her and Zhao Zhao was to keep forcing her to draw the line between her and Mu Qing, until she had nowhere to go.
It was a little cruel, but it would only make Zhao Anan sad for a few days. She wouldnt get hurt. It would be good to torture her and let her understand his feelings.
The olddy of the Zhao family sighed in her heart, but she didnt show any expression on her face. She didnt look at Zhao Anan and went upstairs to rest.
Zhao Zhao didnt say anything. She knew her daughters stubbornness better than anyone else. At the same time, she also knew that her daughter had a big advantage. She was really forgetful. Today, she was still in a terrible mood, but tomorrow, she would definitely forget everything and be happy and lively again.
She shook her head. Her daughters temper was actually very simr to hers, and it was very difficult to change.
Soon, Zhao Anan was left alone in the spacious and luxurious living room. She stood there for a while, looking lost and helpless, like a lost sheep, not knowing which way to go.
She really hoped that someone woulde and help her, to point her on the path that she should take.
Zhao Anan was very upset, but she would not torture herself like the others. She went back to her bedroom and thought that she would not be able to sleep. But she was still sleeping like a little pig. She did not even have a dream.
In her sleep, Zhao Anan didnt know that someone had already chosen a path for her and was working hard to push her onto that path.
Although the person who had helped her choose the path had taken a huge risk and was under a lot of pressure, this path was undoubtedly the most beneficial for Zhao Anan.
The night was dark and the stars were bright.
The operating room in family MUs Hospital was brightly lit. The operation in progress indicator had been on for four hours.
Mu Qing didnt attend the 100th birthday party today because he was in the middle of surgery. Mu Wensheng didnt lie.
If it were any other type of surgery or another patient, he would definitely turn it down. Jing Rui was the only one who could live up to 100 years old. How could he not go?
But Jing Yiran was the one who hade for the surgery, and he was doing the most risky and difficult open-skull surgery.
Mu Qing was so angry that he wanted to throw Jing Yiran onto the operating table.
Of course, he could only think about it. He couldnt just leave Jing Yiran here and let his condition worsen.
Jing Yiran had passed out for six hours yesterday and he had a terrible headache when he woke up.
What was worse was that he had lost his sight!
Chapter 667: Taking out the bullet
Chapter 667: Taking out the bullet
In fact, Jing Yiran had noticed that his vision was getting blurry these days and he would faint every two days. But he had been trying to hold on.
Lu was not a sensitive person. She knew that Jing Yiran always had headaches, but she did not notice that his vision was getting worse.
Jing Yiran had not expected that his condition would deteriorate so quickly. It might have something to do with the fact that he had not had a good rest and had been looking for Lu all the time.
The pain in his head and the darkness caused by his blindness made Jing Yiran feel irritated and in pain.
He could endure the pain! However, he couldn''t see with his eyes. How could he endure this!
That was why he asked Lu to take him to Mu Qing and ask for the operation immediately.
Mu Qing decided to operate on Jing Yiran after checking his head carefully.
He was in a very dangerous situation. The bullet had pressed on his optic nerve and caused a serious blood clot in his brain, which was still slowly increasing.
Mu Qing only had a 70% chance of sess in the operation. If it was dyed any longer, the sess rate would drop to less than 50% and Jing Yiran''s blindness might be permanent.
But Mu Qing told Jing Yichen everything about Jing Yiran''s operation. He was on Jing Yichen''s side. If Jing Yiran was cured and he went against Jing Yichen and hurt Shangguan ning and Jing Rui, he would be a sinner.
Jing Yichen didn''t hesitate and asked him to start the operation immediately.
He had been able to find Tang shunian so quickly and confirm his identity all because of Jing Yiran''s help.
Since he had promised Jing Yiran that he would let Mu Qing operate on him, he would not go back on his word.
Brain surgery was veryplicated, and it required excellent medical skills and rich experience. Otherwise, it was very likely that the patient would be a vegetable after opening the skull.
Mu Qing was an expert in this field. Even so, the operation had been going on for more than four hours.
The bullet had been wrapped up by theplex brain nerves, and it would take a lot of care to remove it.
It was a miracle that Jing Yiran could survive after being shot.
Mu Qing believed that even if the operation only had a 10% sess rate, Jing Yiran would still survive. He was too lucky! Even the heavens didn''t want him to die. He would definitely live to a hundred years old!
Seven hourster, the operation was finallypleted. But the final result could not be known until Jing Yiran woke up. But he was sure that his life was saved and he would not have a headache anymore. But he was not sure if his vision would return to normal.
Jing Yiran was sent to the intensive care unit and Lu was apanying him in the sterile clothes.
Mu Qing''s eyes were bloodshot, he was starving and his throat was dry. But he stood outside the ss door of the intensive care unit for a long time.
It seemed that even Jing Yiran was more fortunate than him.
Lu did not have muc
h affection for him, but everyone could tell that she valued Jing Yiran more than her own life.
She was holding Jing Yiran''s hand and staying by his bedside, like a wife who was waiting for her husband when he woke up. It was such a heartwarming scene.
Lu, who had always been a quiet girl, had asked him many times today,"is Jing Yiran okay?"
The rtionship between her and Jing Yiran was not like love, but it was far better than love.
What was love? Were they being lovey-dovey and loving? No, love is when two people''s hearts are connected. They are not afraid of any difficulties, can hold hands and go through all the ups and downs together, and resist the hardships together.
Mu Qing stood outside for a long time. Then he turned around with a bitter smile, walked out of the hospital and went back to his apartment.
He took a shower, ate some leftovers from the refrigerator, and theny on the bed to rest.
Zhao Anan''s voice and smiling face shed in his mind, making him feel empty. He was so tired, but he couldn''t fall asleep.
Mu Qing didn''t fall asleep until dawn.
At around nineo'' clock in the morning, Zhao Anan slipped out of the house and went straight to family MU''s Hospital, wearing a big mask, a pair of sunsses and a baseball cap that covered half of her face.
Today, the olddy and Zhao Zhao went out early to work, which made Zhao Anan so happy that she could sneak out and y again.
Ever since the summer break at University of X, Zhao Anan had been grounded by the olddy again. She was forbidden to go out and wander around. She had to stay at home all day long unless there was something that needed her help at school.
Zhao Anan took a taxi to family MU''s Hospital. She felt a heartache when she was paying for the taxi.
She had almost used up all the money that she had robbed from Zheng Jing. The olddy had even embezzled the school''s sry and she did not get a single cent.
Thest time she ran away from home, she had caused an irreversible disaster. Zhao Anan felt that she was really asking for trouble. Why did she run away? Now, everyone was wary of her like she was a thief. They were afraid that she would run away again once she had more money!
She swore that she would never run away again, but no one believed her.
It couldn''t be helped. She had a long criminal record and had run away from home countless times, so she had overused all her credit limit.
Sigh, Zheng Jing was still a good man! He brought so much cash with him every day just for her to Rob. If she had money in the future, she would definitely repay him.
His money was Zheng Lun''s money, so she would not hesitate to take advantage of Zheng Jing. But she couldn''t do it to Zheng Lun, who was so kind.
Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing''s faces shed across Zhao Anan''s mind. She wondered why they hadn''t been doing anything recently. It was too slow. She had to go to Zheng Lun to talk to her and give her a hand when she was free.
The thought shed through her mind, but Zhao Anan put it aside for the time being.
She still had a lot of things to deal with.
She carried a ck backpack and entered family MU''s Hospital, fully armed.
Zhao Anan thought that no one would be able to recognize her since she had wrapped herself up so tightly.
She hoped that grandma wouldn''t find out that she hade to family MU''s Hospital again. Otherwise, she would be digging her own grave if she came here today after she had been warned yesterday!
However, there was no other way.
Zhao Anan was worried about Mu Qing. She had toe to see him today to make sure that he was not sick and that he had be the Dean.
Chapter 668-not the principal
Chapter 668-not the principal
Zhao Anan consoled herself. It was okay. This was thest time she would see Mu Qing and he would nevere back.
She didn''t even know how many st times'' this was.
Zhao Anan lowered the brim of her hat and hurried into the hospital with her head down. She sneaked into Mu Qing''s office like a thief.
Her palms were full of sweat, and she was inexplicably nervous.
After a long while, Zhao Anan opened the door with trembling fingers.
In the end, there was no one in the office!
Zhao Anan straightened her back. What was going on?
Why was Mu Qing not in the office?
She had checked on the inte before she came. Mu Qing had not had any scheduled surgeries these days. In fact, he had not had any surgeries for a week. That was why Zhao Anan suspected that mu Wensheng had given up on Mu Qing. Otherwise, with Mu Qing''s excellent medical skills, there would be patients waiting for him every day.
On the official website of family MU''s Hospital, the appointments of the doctors were clearly disyed. The other doctors ''schedules were full, but Mu Qing''s was empty.
Mu Qing used to be the doctor with the most appointments.
Zhao Anan felt that it was her fault that Mu Qing had be like this. That was why she had gone to mu Wensheng to ask him to restore Mu Qing''s position.
But Mu Qing was not in the hospital today.
He would stay in the hospital and not go anywhere else. In Mu Qing''s words, the hospital was his home and he was the most valuable person in the hospital.
Even if there was no surgery and no patients came to see him, Mu Qing would still sit in his office and study medical books.
Zhao Anan stood there in a daze for a while, then turned around and went to the front desk of the hospital.
"May I know if doctor Mu Qing is in? I want to see him. "
The nurse at the front desk looked suspicious. She stared at Zhao Anan for a long time without saying anything.
It was not the nurse''s fault. Zhao Anan had covered her face with a hat, sunsses and a mask, which made her look like a robber.
Seeing that she was silent, Zhao Anan said angrily,""What are you looking at? What''s wrong with me covering my face? I''m sick and I''m willing to do it. What can you do about it?"
This typical tyrannical tone gave the nurse a shock, and she hurriedly went to check on the doctor''s arrival.
"Doctor mu isn''t here today. Why don''t you look for another doctor?"
"Why didn''t hee?"
How would a nurse like her know about this?
"I''m not sure. "
"When can hee?"
"I don''t know,"
"Will he be able toe tomorrow?"
"I''m not sure, but I think so?"
Zhao Anan was furious."What kind of nurse are you? why do you sound like you don''t know anything?"
The nurse almost cried. She was just an intern nurse. How could she know the daily activities of top doctors like Mu Qing?
She wanted to know why. Doctor Mu Qing was so handsome and had a good temper. She wanted to be his girlfriend, but there were so many people in the hosp
ital who liked Mu Qing. She was not one of them.
Now, anyone who asked about Mu Qing would be attacked by a group of women. The nurse didn''t dare to ask when Mu Qing woulde to the hospital.
.
Zhao Anan was annoyed for a while. She tried to suppress her annoyance and asked,"Has Mu Qing be the Dean?"
The nurse was stunned for a moment before she quickly shook her head."No, no. The current dean is still Dean mu, not doctor Mu Qing."
Mu Qing did not be the Dean!
That old man mu Wensheng dared to lie to her!
Zhao Anan was so angry that she turned around and left.
She felt that mu Wensheng might have given up on Mu Qing. He might have even been driven out of family MU''s Hospital, not to mention the director.
However, when she walked out of the hospital in a Huff, she realized that even if mu Wensheng had given up on Mu Qing, she could not go to family mu and beg him again.
This old man''s credibility was too bad. They had a good talk yesterday, why did he turn his back on them today!
Zhao Anan was very sad. Mu Qing''s biggest wish in his life was to be a top doctor and to develop family MU''s Hospital into the best Noble Hospital. But now it was all ruined.
She carried her bag alone and walked aimlessly on the road. She didn''t notice that someone was following her.
In fact, Zheng Jing had been following Zhao Anan since she left the house.
Although Tang shunian had been killed, yang Muyan was still there. And for yang Muyan, Zhao Anan was more important. It was very likely that she would deal with Zhao Anan.
So they couldn''t let Zhao Anan be alone, or it would be too dangerous.
Also, if Zhao Anan ran away from home again, Mu Qing would be in deep trouble.
So Zheng Jing went out to follow Zhao Anan as soon as he received the call from the servant of the Zhao family.
Zheng Jing was very good at following people. He had received special training in this area. With Zhao Anan''s ability, she would not be able to find him as long as he did not show up.
As Zhao Anan was walking, she suddenly realized that she was very familiar with the surroundings. When she came back to herself, she realized that she had identally walked into Mu Qing''s apartment.
Did she miss him too much?
Or was it that this path had been deeply engraved in her mind, so much so that she coulde here even in a daze?
Zhao Anan turned around and wanted to leave.
However, she stopped after taking a few steps.
Should she go up and see if Mu Qing was there? She still had the key to his apartment, so it would be easy for her to get in.
Zhao Anan couldn''t control herself when she had the idea.
Joy shed in her eyes, and then she turned around and continued to walk toward muqing''s apartment.
However, when she arrived at the apartment, she hesitated again.
That didn''t seem right. What would she say if Mu Qing was at home? Was he supposed to say that he was just passing by and decided to take a look?
This was too fake!
No, no. She had a bad rtionship with Mu Qingst time and refused to
marry him. Mu Qing had even said,"don''t beg to marry me." How could she go to him again?
What was more, she had promised the olddy that she would never see Mu Qing again. Didn''t she say that she would make Mu Qing forget about her?
He couldn''t dy Mu Qing any longer!
Zhao Anan''s heart was clenched. She walked away from the apartment with heavy steps.
However, when she was far away, the reluctance and worry in his heart reappeared.
Just one look, just one look!
Mu Qing wouldn''t find out if she went in quietly. Besides, Mu Qing might not be at home.
Chapter 669: Hes the most handsome!
Chapter 669: He''s the most handsome!
He didn''t know if family mu had been forcing Mu Qing to go on blind dates recently. Mu Wensheng had given up on him and probably wouldn''t even care about his marriage.
Was Mu Qing still in contact with that Vixen? Would he marry her?
Zhao Anan had a lot of questions, but no one could answer them for her. She felt so suffocated.
Zheng Jing was hiding at the side. Seeing Zhao Anan walking back and forth on the path leading to Mu Qing''s apartment, he felt very tired for her.
This girl was so stubborn. Why didn''t she agree to marry Mu Qing? It was obvious that she liked Mu Qing very much and was walking around downstairs, but refused to go up.
Didn''t she do things very cleanly? His personality was carefree like a boy. When did he be so wishy-washy?
After waiting for more than half an hour, Zhao Anan finally went upstairs. Zheng Jing let out a sigh of relief.
If this went on, he would have to carry Zhao Anan to Mu Qing''s house.
Zhao Anan entered the apartment and pressed the button for the 11th floor. As the elevator went up, her heart started to beat faster.
After getting out of the elevator, Zhao Anan stood in front of the door and put her ear to the anti-theft door. She didn''t hear anything from the inside. She gritted her teeth and took out the key. She opened the door gently with the gentlest movement she had ever done.
The door opened with a "click."
Zhao Anan had been to Mu Qing''s ce many times, but she had never heard the door being opened so loudly.
As usual, she gently pushed the door open, only opening a small gap, and then kept looking inside.
After a while, Mu Qing was still not in the room.
Zhao Anan became braver. She put the key back into her bag, pushed the door open gently and walked in.
Was Mu Qing really not at home?
Zhao Anan felt a sense of disappointment.
She pushed open the door of Mu Qing''s bedroom and saw a figure sleeping soundly on the bed. Her disappointment was immediately reced by surprise and she couldn''t help but smile.
He seemed to be very tired. The sound of the door opening was a little loud, but it didn''t wake him up.
Zhao Anan walked to the bed gently and sat down. She looked at the man she had been thinking about day and night greedily. Looking at his handsome sleeping face, she felt an indescribable happiness and satisfaction.
So, she was actually so easily satisfied?
She used to think that Mu Qing was annoying when he was walking around her all day. But now that she could not see him and her grandma had stopped her from disturbing him, she felt that she was happy just to see him.
Zhao Anan really wanted to p herself. She was so useless! Sometimes, he didn''t cherish it and only shamelessly came to her when he was about to lose it.
But she felt that it was good that she was shameless, because at least she could still see Mu Qing.
It''s already past Teno'' clock, why is he still sleeping?
Are you sick?
Zhao Anan touched Mu Qing''s forehead gently.
It''s not hot, so I don''t think I''m sick.
.
Did you stay uptest night?
Otherwise, he would have woken up a long time ago and would not have been in such a deep sleep even after 10 O'' clock.
Zhao Anan sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Mu Qing quietly.
The bright sunlight shone through the clean ss window and filled the entire bedroom.
The bedroom was decorated ording to Zhao Anan''s preference. It was luxurious and warm.
The beautiful and expensive crystal chandelier on the ceiling had been brought back from Europe by Zhao Zhao under Zhao Anan''s orders. Mu Qing had snatched it and installed it in his bedroom.
This kind of hangingmp was not suitable for the bedroom, but for the spacious living room. But Mu Qing didn''t want to put it in the living room. He said that he spent most of his time in the bedroom, so he wanted to put her hangingmp in the bedroom. This way, he would feel better when she was not with him.
There were two bears on the bedside table. Mu Qing had bought them for her 11 years ago when they were still in love. She had only liked them for two days and then abandoned them because they were too childish. Mu Qing picked it up, washed it and put it on the bed. He said,"this is for us. Don''t lose it again."
On the White curtains, there were all kinds of ugly pigs that she had drawn. Mu Qing tried to wash them off several times but failed. He decided not to do so. He said,"the more I look at them, the more they look like you. I''d better not wash them."
There were traces of her everywhere, and there were memories of them. It was so beautiful that it was intoxicating.
Mu Qing was still in a deep sleep. He didn''t know that a woman had entered his room and was staring at him.
Zhao Anan used to think that the most handsome person in the world was her cold and cool cousin. He was perfect from head to toe, especially his face, which was extremely handsome.
But now, she felt that Mu Qing was the most handsome man.
Jing Yichen was too cold and rational, not as human as her Mu Qing.
The sun shone on his handsome face, making him look gentle and handsome. Zhao Anan wanted to kiss him.
He had a gentle and beautiful face, a straight nose, handsome eyebrows, red and thin lips, and even his ears were very beautiful.
Zhao Anan couldn''t help butugh.
Mu Qing was so handsome, good at medicine and smart. Why did he fall in love with her?
It was normal for her to like Mu Qing, but it seemed a little difficult for Mu Qing to like her.
It would be great if Mu Qing could continue to sleep like this and not wake up, so that she could watch over him.
Seeing Mu Qing sleeping like a child, Zhao Anan didn''t want to leave.
She lowered her head and gave Mu Qing a Peck on the lips. After a long while, she stood up and walked out of the bedroom.
The door of the bedroom closed slightly. Mu Qing, who had been sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes. He touched his lips and his dark brown eyes were full of joy.
Zhao Anan walked into the living room without knowing anything. She suddenly rem
embered that there was a set of clothes in her backpack.
She took off her backpack and quickly took out the clothes wrapped in a gift box. She ced it on the table in the living room, then took out a pen from her bag, pulled a piece of tissue from the tissue box on the table, and began to write on it.
Just as he finished thest full stop, he heard azy voice behind him.
"You''re different now that you''re the principal. You even know how to write love letters to me! However, are you sure you want to use a tissue to write?"
Zhao Anan was startled. She turned around and found herself in a warm and familiar embrace.
Chapter 670: A first kiss that seemed familiar
Chapter 670: A first kiss that seemed familiar
"Y-y-you ... Why are you awake?!"
Zhao Anan was so shocked that she couldn''t even speak properly. The pen in her hand fell to the ground with a tter.
"Do you think I''m like you, sleeping like a dead pig and not waking up even if the sky falls down?" Mu Qing''s voice was stillnguid and hoarse, perhaps because he had just gotten out of bed. It was so attractive and sexy that Zhao Anan''s heart rate shot up to 120.
"Y-y-you ... When did you wake up?"
"I haven''t seen you for half a month and you''ve be a stutterer?"
Zhao Anan was both embarrassed and angry. She stomped on Mu Qing''s foot."Hurry up and tell me!"
Mu Qing was used to being stepped on by her, so he didn''t Dodge or cry out in pain. He said with a calm face,"When you entered my bedroom."
Zhao Anan''s face turned red.
Damn Mu Qing, he had woken up long ago but still pretended to be asleep, which made her embarrassed.
"You''re shameless! Why didn''t you open your eyes when you were awake? Why did she pretend to be asleep? You must have done it on purpose. You deliberately made me ..."
Zhao Anan couldn''t bring herself to say the word "kiss."
She didn''t know what was wrong with her. In the past, she dared to say anything, but why was she so reserved now?
Seeing Zhao Anan''s face as red as a tomato, Mu Qing felt very happy.
He raised his eyebrows and deliberately said to anger her,""I''m shameless? There seems to be someone who is even more shameless than me, right? Not only did you sneak into my house, but you also sat in front of my bed and stared at me for so long. It wasn''t enough to just look at me, and you even kissed me. Do you think I should call the police? There''s a rapist at home, and I''m so handsome, but my first kiss is gone today. If this goes on, I might not be able to keep my innocence!"
"What first kiss? your first kiss has already ..." Zhao Anan was anxious.
She stopped halfway through her sentence.
"What''s wrong with my first kiss? Why are you stuck?"
Zhao Anan bit her lip and refused to speak.
Mu Qing''s first kiss was not taken away by her today, but eleven years ago, when she took away his first kiss, the scene was surprisingly simr to today.
It was Mu Qing who had pretended to be asleep, she who had kissed him, and she who had been caught and held in his arms when she had left a letter for him.
Later, Mu Qing hugged her and kissed her crazily. It was also on that day that she promised Mu Qing to be his girlfriend.
If Mu Qing hadn''t mentioned it, Zhao Anan would never have realized that they had been living a happy life together again.
Her heart was beating fast. Would Mu Qing kiss her so passionately like before? Was he not angry anymore?
Mu Qing seemed to have read Zhao Anan''s mind. He smiled and said softly,"Silly!"
He lowered his head, bit Zhao Anan''s Red lips and started to kiss her.
At the beginning, Mu Qing was gentle, but soon he couldn''t control himself.
He remembered the passion and excitement when he and Zhao Anan had just gotten into a rtionship. He remembered how beautifu
l and romantic they had been.
He had missed Zhao Anan for a long time. When she had kissed him secretly today, he had almost pushed her down on the bed and had the most fun time with her.
Mu Qing''s kiss was overbearing and passionate, and Zhao Anan could hardly resist.
All the air in her body had been taken away by Mu Qing, and she could barely breathe.
She could clearly hear Mu Qing''s rapid heartbeat and heavy breathing, which made her heart beat faster and her breath heavier.
They kissed for a long time, and just when Zhao Anan felt that she was suffocating, Mu Qing finally let her go.
She opened her eyes and found that Mu Qing had taken off all her clothes. Mu Qing had also taken off his shirt, revealing his strong and attractive abdominal muscles.
She was so embarrassed that she pushed Mu Qing away and hurriedly picked up the T-shirt on the ground to put it on. But she realized that she had put it on the wrong way.
Both her and Mu Qing''s T-shirts were white. In a panic, she put on Mu Qing''s one.
Mu Qing was about to burst intoughter inside, but he kept a straight face.
Zhao Anan took off Mu Qing''s clothes and picked up her own clothes. She red at him as she put them on. "Don''tugh!"
"Which eye of yours saw me smiling?" Mu Qing said innocently.
"You can''t evenugh in your heart!"
''Well, I haven''t seen any improvement in my abilities for a while. I can even see through people''s hearts now.''
Mu Qing stood there with his bare upper body and said with a smile,"Alright, don''t wear it anymore. It''ll save me the trouble of taking it off for youter!"
Zhao Anan didn''t say anything. She put on her clothes, picked up her backpack and walked out.
She had seen Mu Qing today and that was enough. She couldn''t stay here any longer.
Grandma was right. She was dying Mu Qing bying to see him. She couldn''t control herself. She was going to sink deeper and deeper.
Mu Qing stopped her and said with a faint smile,"What, you cane and go as you please? Running away after provoking me, what kind of person do you think I am?"
Zhao Anan was stopped by him and said with a straight face,"Get out of my way, I''m leaving! If you don''t let her go, it''s illegal detention!"
"You should be grateful that I didn''t Sue you for trespassing," Mu Qingughed. "How dare you say that I am illegally detaining you?" However, even if it''s illegal detention, I''ll admit it. You can''t leave today. I''ll definitely get some benefits before I let you go. If you want to Sue me, we''ll talk after we''re done with the bed. "
Having said that, he carried Zhao Anan to the bedroom.
Zhao Anan struggled hard, hitting and kicking him, but Mu Qing wouldn''t let her go.
Mu Qing threw her onto the bed and pressed himself on top of her. He whispered in her ear,"You delivered yourself to my door, how could I let you go? Tell me the truth, did you miss me?"
"Who would miss you? in your dreams!" Zhao Anan refused to admit it.
Mu Qing didn''t get angry. He reached into her underwear and said, "It''s okay. You''ve always been lying. I can find th
e evidence myself. You have to hold it inter. Don''t be too violent."
Zhao Anan didn''t expect Mu Qing to be so direct.
Her sensitive area was touched by his slightly cold fingers, causing her to tremble and feel numb.
"Mu Qing, you bastard! Let me go!" Zhao Anan screamed.
That would not do. Her body would soon betray her and she had no resistance to Mu Qing.
Mu Qing didn''t care about being scolded by her. He was breathing faster and faster, and his eyes were filled with lust.
He lowered his head and kissed Zhao Anan''s lips to stop her from screaming.
Chapter 671 you love me
Chapter 671 you love me
"Anan, I missed you so much. Did you miss me?"
Hearing his gentle voice, Zhao Anan burst into tears. She felt so wronged. She bit him hard and hit him while crying."I hate you so much, don''t touch me! I''m so confused, what should I do, what should I do!"
She wanted to be with Mu Qing forever. What should she do?
She didn''t want to leave. What should she do?
She missed Mu Qing so much, otherwise she would not have sneaked into his house.
But she didn''t dare to think about him. As long as she thought about him, she couldn''t control herself!
When would this endless torment and torture end?
Who could understand the pain in her heart?
She had been chased by the god of death all this time. Who could understand the panic and fear of facing death at all times?
Every time she went for a check-up, she would pretend as if nothing had happened, but who knew how scared she was?
She was also a human, and she was also afraid of death.
Zhao Anan wrapped her arms around Mu Qing''s neck and started to cry like a child.
Mu Qing was frightened. He didn''t know why she suddenly started crying.
Zhao Anan rarely cried. She was a cheerful person and didn''t care about the small things. She lived a happy life every day.
So every time she cried, Mu Qing felt that the sky was falling down.
He didn''t know if it was because of what he had done or if it was because she was reminded of something sad. He held Zhao Anan tightly and admitted his mistake."Anan, I''m sorry, I''m sorry. Don''t cry, it''s my fault. You can hit me or scold me, but don''t cry, okay? When you cry, my heart aches. When you touch it, my heart breaks. "
Zhao Anan didn''t listen to anything but kept crying.
She would not shed tears in front of Zhao Zhao and Zhao Fu. But for some reason, she was more vulnerable in front of Mu Qing. His arms made her feel like a child, and she could cry freely to release all the pent-up emotions that she had been suppressing.
Maybe it was because Mu Qing pampered her too much, that she was so fearless in front of him.
"Anan, I love you, I love you very much, don''t you know that? If it''s possible, I''m willing to die for you. As long as you can live on safely, I''m willing to do anything. Don''t be angry, okay?"
Mu Qing had forgotten all of Shangguan ning''s advice and said everything that was in his heart.
Zhao Anan knew that Mu Qing wasn''t joking. He really valued her life more than his own.
She felt much better. At least, Mu Qing cared about her so much and was willing to share her pain.
Her face was full of tears, which made Mu Qing feel bad. He took the T-shirt that Zhao Anan had taken off and wiped her tears and snot.
"You dirtied my clothes. What should I wearter?" Zhao Anan sobbed.
She was already crying so much, yet she still had the time to worry about her clothes! It seemed that there was nothing wrong with her at all. She was just crying in his arms because of the grievances that women had.
Mu Qing had been worried for nothing. He had thought that she was crying because she had found out that her cancer had rpsed.
Mu Qing heaved a sigh of relief. His handsome face was covered in sweat.
He was really frightened.
"Don''t worry, I have a lot of clothes for you. You can change into er. If you really can ''t, I''ll buy you some. Don''t cry, your eyes are already swollen. If someone sees you, you won''t be able to exin yourself. "
It worked on Zhao Anan and she stopped crying immediately.
.
Otherwise, he would not be able to exin himself if his eyes were swollen and his grandmother saw him.
Mu Qing wiped her face clean and kissed her gently.
"Silly girl, what''s there to cry about? Don''t be afraid, I''m here for you. You must remember that no matter what happens, I will always be by your side. You are not allowed to bear everything alone. If anything happens, you must tell me. "
Zhao Anan realized what Mu Qing was talking about after a while.
What he meant was that if her condition rpsed, she had to tell him.
However, he was thest person she wanted to tell.
Because he was definitely going to die of pain and worry.
How could she bear to let him worry and suffer?
Zhao Anan didn''t say anything. She was thinking that she didn''t say "okay" because she didn''t agree. It would be better for Mu Qing not to know if anything happened to her in the future.
Mu Qing knew what she was thinking. She didn''t say anything, which meant that she was trying to hide it from him. Otherwise, she would have said,"sure, I will tell you."
He didn''t force Zhao Anan to agree. If that day really came, he would know about it even if Zhao Anan didn''t tell him anything.
Now, she was right beside him, in his arms. He didn''t want to do anything. Just holding her like this was enough to satisfy him.
He had been too anxious just now and should not have forced her to do that kind of thing.
Mu Qing put the underwear back on for her and theny down beside Zhao Anan. He held her in his arms and put his chin on her forehead, talking to her in a low voice.
"Why did youe to find me today?"
Judging from Zhao Anan''s personality, she would note to him just because she missed him. Besides, Mu Qing was not sure if Zhao Anan really missed him.
Zhao Anan opened her mouth but didn''t say anything.
Mu Qing smiled and asked in a gentle voice, "You''re afraid that I''ll get together with another woman? You''re afraid that I''ll marry someone else, so you''re here to see if I have any other women?"
"No!" Zhao Anan denied it subconsciously.
Mu Qing knew that this was not the reason. He had asked this question to tell Zhao Anan what he was thinking.
"I won''t marry anyone else. Anan, you''re the only one in my heart. I can''t take anyone else in."
Mu Qing said this in a rxed tone, but there was an unspeakable determination in his voice. Zhao Anan''s heart skipped a beat.
"No other woman wille to my ce, only you."
Zhao Anan raised her eyes and looked at Mu Qing. The affection and gentleness in his eyes only belonged to her.
"You listen." &
nbsp;
Mu Qing put Zhao Anan''s hand on his chest so that he could feel her heartbeat.
"I said I love you in my heart."
As he said this, he took Zhao Anan''s wrist with his other hand to check her pulse.
"Your pulse is beating so fast. From a professional doctor''s point of view, it''s either there''s something wrong with your heart, or you''re attracted to me, which caused your blood flow to elerate. That''s why your pulse is beating so strongly."
"From the body to the mind, everything points to one thing."
Mu Qing paused for a second and continued,"You love me, Anan."
Chapter 672: Ive seen your enthusiasm
Chapter 672: I''ve seen your enthusiasm
Zhao Anan did not deny it.
She could not deny that she loved Mu Qing.
Her expression and her physiological reaction were all telling Mu Qing that she loved him.
She put her hand on Mu Qing''s chest and felt his strong heartbeat. She finally calmed down.
Moreover, she didn''t know why, but the fear in her heart had disappeared after Mu Qing''s words.
She had thought that Mu Qing would marry Mi Xiaoxiao under the pressure of family mu.
But after hearing what Mu Qing said today, she believed that Mu Qing would never marry anyone else.
She felt as if a huge rock had been lifted off her chest and her anxiety for Mu Qing had finally faded.
Recently, she had been under pressure from both her family and Mu Qing. The olddy had been forcing her to make a choice, and Mu Qing seemed to be getting further and further away from her.
In fact, she was very afraid of losing Mu Qing. There were several times when she almost said that she would marry Mu Qing.
She was not sure how much longer she could hold on. Maybe if she continued to push herself, her desire for Mu Qing would take the dominant position and she would lose control of herself and be with Mu Qing.
If Shangguan ning had known that all the hard work she had put in had been ruined by Mu Qing, she would have passed out from anger.
Didn''t she know that forcing Zhao Anan and making Mu Qing give her the cold shoulder would make Zhao Anan suffer?
But why did she still do it?
What she wanted was for Zhao Anan to suffer.
Zhao Anan was too stubborn. It was hard for her to figure out what she was thinking. She wanted to make changes on her own. Only an external force could force her to change.
She would eventually realize that Mu Qing was more important than everything she had done.
But now, deep in her heart, she still felt that it was best for Mu Qing not to marry her. She was sacrificing her own feelings to make Mu Qing marry someone else.
Shangguan ning wanted Zhao Anan to understand that she couldn''t bear to part with Mu Qing. She needed him and she couldn''t push him into another woman''s arms.
Even if she was going to die, she should die in Mu Qing''s arms instead of watching Mu Qing hold another woman in his arms.
Of course, Shangguan ning didn''t think that Zhao Anan would die. She thought that Zhao Anan would live to a hundred years old, so she didn''t want Zhao Anan to push Mu Qing out. If her illness did not act up for the rest of her life, or if it did, she would definitely regret not marrying Mu Qing.
Love was a matter between two people. Shangguan ning had wanted to help, but she had never interfered.
But ever since Zhao Anan went into hiding in the United Kingdom and was imprisoned for half a year to avoid Mu Qing, Shangguan ning had changed her mind.
She knew the reason why Zhao Anan refused to marry Mu Qing. It was a knot that could not be unraveled unless Zhao Anan waspletely cured.&n
bsp;
But other than solving the problem, there were other ways to make Zhao Anan marry Mu Qing. If the open scheme didn''t work, then they would resort to a conspiracy.
She didn''t care if Zhao Anan would hate her in the future. As long as she could be with Mu Qing, she wouldn''t mind ying tricks on her.
.
Zhao Anan had been pushed to the edge by her. If she had been given thest dose of medicine, she would have gone to Mu Qing and asked to marry him.
But now she was back to her old self, thinking that Mu Qing still loved her and that she couldn''t marry him. Otherwise, Mu Qing would be like Jing zhongxiu, unwilling to marry anyone else and be alone for the rest of his life after she died.
She had to stay away from Mu Qing so that he would forget about her.
Mu Qing didn''t know about the subtle change in Zhao Anan''s mood. He was just happy to see that Zhao Anan was no longer as worried as she had been thest few times.
He couldn''t bear to see Zhao Anan suffer.
In fact, he had a way to force Zhao Anan to marry him, but he just couldn''t do it. He could never be like Jing Yichen, who forced Zhao Anan to get married to him.
And with Zhao Anan''s personality, if she was forced to get the marriage certificate, she would not stay at home quietly like Shangguan ning. She would definitely run away.
He didn''t want to force Zhao Anan, and it was good for her now.
They lived in the same city and had so many connections, so it was hard not to see each other.
"Why did youe to find me today? Are you in trouble?"
"No," Zhao Anan shook her head.
He only said two words and refused to say anything more.
Mu Qing stroked Zhao Anan''s soft short hair and asked her in a low voice,"What do you want to eat for lunch? I''ll cook for you. "
Since Zhao Anan didn''t want to tell him what she was here for, Mu Qing didn''t ask further.
If she didn''t want to say something, she wouldn''t be able to get it out no matter how much she asked. If she wanted to tell him, he didn''t need to ask and she would have already said a lot.
She was a little foodie, so he had to feed her first.
Zhao Anan wanted to say "steak," but she stopped herself.
She should have left. If she stayed here to have lunch with Mu Qing, she would not be able to make him forget about her.
She pushed Mu Qing away and said with red and swollen eyes,"Find me some clothes to wear."
Mu Qing got up obediently and went to the closet to find some clothes for her.
There were a lot of Zhao Anan''s clothes in his house, from head to toe, including underwear, shoes and socks. He had bought all of them so that Zhao Anan would have a change of clothes when she lived here.
He found a white T-shirt simr to Zhao Anan''s and gave it to her. When she was dressed, he couldn''t help but put his arms around her waist and asked in a low voice,"Do you want to change your underwear too?" &
nbsp;
Just now, mu qingluan had already attacked her.| Can be moved| Love.
Mu Qing''s tone was casual and not flirtatious, but what he meant made Zhao Anan feel very embarrassed.
It had been a long time since Mu Qing had touched her like that. She was very sensitive and had a physiological reaction that made her feel embarrassed.
Mu Qing chuckled when he saw Zhao Anan''s ears turning red. "You''re like this because You Like Me Too Much. Don''t feel embarrassed. I''ve seen you more passionate than you were today. "
He moved close to Zhao Anan''s ear and nibbled on it. He said in a hoarse voice,"I like it very much."
Chapter 673-you cant keep your grandson when hes older
Chapter 673-you can''t keep your grandson when he''s older
Zhao Anan was very excited. Mu Qing had never been so good at tuning before.| Love, when did he learn all this? That was too evil!
She grabbed a pillow and threw it at Mu Qing. Mu Qing cried out in pain and dodged.
As he dodged, he shouted,"you really don''t need to change your underwear?" It''s definitely ufortable to be wet, let''s change!"
Zhao Anan hit him harder with the pillow."You shut up!"
Zhao Anan didn''t change her underwear in the end. She took her bag and ran away in a hurry, despite Mu Qing''s pleading.
Maybe Mu Qing or Zhao Anan had forgotten about it, but neither of them had asked for the key back, as if it was not important at all.
The house was empty without Zhao Anan''s presence, voice and breath.
Mu Qing felt a little sad, but he became happy again when he saw the gift box on the table.
Zhao Anan had improved a lot recently. She even knew to bring gifts to his house.
It was really strange!
Mu Qing opened the box with hope, but his smile froze when he saw what was inside.
What the hell was this?
This was obviously a set of clothes for the elderly! Not only was it not his favorite color and style, but it was also not his size! He was 1.83 meters tall, so the clothes were only suitable for a 1.73-meter person at most!
He remembered that Zhao Anan had left him a letter. He had thought it was a love letter, but it seemed that it was not.
Mu Qing picked up the tissue from the ground and saw the words on it: These are the clothes I owe old man mu. Please pass them to him for me and remind him that you are the Dean.
Mu Qing was confused by Zhao Anan''s words.
Since when did she owe her grandfather clothes?
What did this have to do with him being the Dean?
Mu Qing couldn''t figure it out. He knew that he had been happy for nothing. He knew it. How could Zhao Anan know to buy him gifts and clothes?
But it was obvious that Zhao Anan didn''t buy the clothes herself. It must have been carefully prepared by the Butler of the Zhao family. The style, size, color and texture were all grandpa''s favorite. Zhao Anan couldn''t have been so meticulous to know mu Wensheng''s preferences.
Mu Qing was depressed for a while, but then he became happy again. No matter what, Zhao Anan knew that it was a good thing to give Grandpa clothes as a gift.
He received a call from mu Wensheng before he could finish feeling happy.
Mu Qing was surprised. Why did mu Wensheng call him when he had just thought of him?
"Hello, Grandpa, what''s the matter?"
Mu Wen''s angry voice came from the phone.""Can''t I call you for no reason? You''ve been flirting with that stupid girl all day long, and you don''t take me seriously anymore, do you?"
"How could I!" Mu Qing smiled apologetically and responded quickly, "I''m just trying to get you a granddaughter-inw as soon as possible. How can they agree if we don''t flirt?"
"Sure, then give me a definite answer. Don''t go back and wait for me to be in the coffin before you have a wife!"
How could there be any urate information! &nb
sp;
Mu Qing chuckled guiltily and said, "Didn''t you want to break the record of human longevity? The coffin was definitely not needed! However, I have a new set of clothes here that you''ll definitely be able to use. I think this set of clothes will definitely be veryfortable. Do you want it?"
Mu Wensheng snorted and said angrily,""Hmph, that brat from the Zhao family gave it to me, right?"
"How did you know?" Mu Qing widened his eyes in surprise.
"Oh, she only asked you to give me clothes, but she didn''t say why she wanted to give me a set of clothes?"
"She said she owed you."
"Don''t you owe me!"
The old man''s tone was unfriendly. He was filled with anger when he thought of yesterday''s incident."This unlucky child. Yesterday, she insisted that I agree to let you be the director. I don''t know who she heard it from, but she thought that you had been abandoned by the MU family, so she shamelessly begged me not to give up on you. She didn''t know how to hold back, and when I didn''t agree, she tore my clothes, making me lose face!"
"Ah?"
There was such a thing!
Why didn''t Zhao Anan say anything today? she had changed a lot. She was able to keep her words hidden. It must have been hard on her.
However ... He didn''t see the spectacr scene yesterday with his own eyes! What a pity, there weren''t many times to see the old man suffer!
Zhao Anan was the only one who could do such a thing. Other people would definitely be respectful to Grandpa mu for fear of offending him. She was a careless and careless person. It was normal for her to tear mu Wensheng''s clothes.
"That was a new set of clothes that your first aunt had just made for me. It''s ruined just like that. I was so angry that I couldn''t sleep the entire night!"
Mu Qing wanted tough, but he didn''t dare to. He could imagine the terrible look on the old man''s face yesterday. He must have been very angry, but he couldn''t hit or scold Zhao Anan.
"Alright, don''t be angry. She sent you a better set today. I''ll send it back to you tomorrow!"
Mu Wensheng snorted and showed that he didn''t care about the clothes given by Zhao Anan. None of them were as good as the clothes that his daughter-inw made for him.
"At least you didn''t fall in love with her for nothing. You even know how to plead with me to let you go back to being the director! I deliberately made things difficult for her yesterday, but she didn''t run away in anger. It seems like she still has some feelings for you. "
Mu Qing was displeased when he heard that Zhao Anan was being picked on by his Grandpa."Grandpa, how can you do this? you''re already so old, but you''re still making things difficult for a little girl. Don''t you find it embarrassing? I don''t care, Anan will be mine in the future. If you make things difficult for her, you''re going Against Me!"
He knew that mu Wensheng was good at making things difficult for others. Even Jing Tianyuan couldn''t handle his sharp tongue, let alone Zhao Anan.
He didn''t want Zhao Anan to suffer in front of Grandpa because of him.
Mu Wensheng was almost angered to death by his grandson. He couldn''t even handle a woman, and he had to step in. In the end, the brat even despised him!
It was said that a
grown girl could not be kept at home, and his grandson could not be kept at home either!
"You little rascal, you''re going against your grandfather for a woman! Do you think I won''t p you? You still have the cheek to say that she''s your woman? yesterday, she kept saying that she had nothing to do with you and that she would never see you again! If you have the ability, then marry her. What''s the point of talking to me here?"
Grandpa mu was so angry that he hung up the phone with a "bang." He didn''t realize that he had called Mu Qing to tell him that he would still be the director of family MU''s Hospital from today on, but he had totally forgotten about it because of the quarrel.
Chapter 674: Youre following me?
Chapter 674: You''re following me?
Zhao Anan ran out of Mu Qing''s apartment like a gust of wind and ran past Zheng Jing without even noticing him.
Zheng Jing caught up with her, limping, when he saw that she had disappeared.
The two of them had been at home for more than an hour, and he had to wait downstairs for so long that his legs were numb from standing.
She didn''t know what Mu Qing had done, but Zhao Anan was still blushing even though she was so thick-skinned.
Zheng Jing felt miserable. The couple had been having fun all the time, but they had been living a happy life. But he had be Zhao Anan''s full-time bodyguard. He had been under the sun for more than an hour. He was sweating and his stomach was rumbling.
He caught up with her and shouted,"Anan, wait for me!" He said.
"Zheng Jing?" Zhao Anan turned around in surprise.
Aren''t they running into each other a little too frequently recently?
"What are you doing here?"
In order to prevent Zhao Anan from getting suspicious, Zheng Jing asked first.
Sure enough, Zhao Anan had been suspicious of why Zheng Jing was here, but now that he had asked, she felt so guilty that she could not keep up with her suspicion of Zheng Jing.
"Well, I ... Just ... Came out for a walk!"
Zheng Jing raised his eyebrows and said,"it''s such a hot day, why are you walking so casually?" Aren''t you afraid of getting a heat stroke?"
"I ..."
This excuse didn''t seem to be very good.
But who was Zhao Anan? she would never change her mind and try to reason with Zheng Jing.
"Why? I''m happy to have a heat stroke! Does it have anything to do with you? Stay away from me, don''t block the wind!"
She turned to leave as soon as she finished her words. She had no intention of chatting with Zheng Jing because she was all sticky. She just wanted to go home to take a shower and change her clothes.
"Anan, let me treat you to a meal!" Zheng Jing used his trump card.
He waved the wallet in his hand."I brought a lot of money today!"
Zhao Anan turned around and looked at Zheng Jing suspiciously.
Zheng Jing thought that she had agreed, so he said with a smile,"Aiya, in this day and age, money is still the best! Money can make the devil push the millstone, this saying is not false at all. "
"Officer Zheng, you''re very suspicious today! Speak! Are you following me?"
Zheng Jing''s heart skipped a beat, but he asked calmly,"Why should I follow you?"
"You didn''t follow me, so why do I see you everywhere I go? I forgot to ask, what are you doing here?" Zhao Anan asked fiercely, as if she was about To Catch a Thief.
If Zheng Jing could be frightened by her, then he would have wasted his time as a Criminal Police officer.
He was baffled and his acting skills were off the charts. "I''m here to see Mu Qing!"
"Then go find him. Why are you following me?" Humph, liar. She had juste out of Mu Qing''s house and Mu Qing had been with her the whole time. When did he mention Zheng Jing?
"Yeah, I had an appointment with him for lunch this afternoon, but he just texted me that he had to undergo surgery and couldn''t have lunch with me. This person is really strange. He agr
eed to it yesterday and arranged for surgery today. He really doesn''t put me, his brother, in his eyes!"
Zhao Anan suddenly felt guilty.
If that was the case, Mu Qing must have refused to see Zheng Jing because of her, and even said that he had to go for surgery.
He didn''t have any surgery, he was just sleeping soundly at home!
"That ... Alright, you pass!"
Zhao Anan waved her hand and was ready to leave.
"I haven''t had lunch yet. Aren''t youing with me?" Zheng Jing was a little surprised.
Wasn''t Zhao Anan always after money? Didn''t he always like to freeload for food?
Why did the wind change today?
"I''m not going, I''m going home! You''re not allowed to follow me, get lost!"
After she finished speaking, she reached out to hail a taxi.
Zheng Jing was not used to Zhao Anan not being greedy. He stood there in shock, not knowing what to do next.
Suddenly, the wallet in her hand was snatched away.
Zhao Anan smiled smugly and got into the taxi with her purse. Then she shouted,"Sir, drive!"
After they had driven for more than ten meters, Zhao Anan suddenly stuck her head out and threw her empty wallet on the ground. Sheughed and shouted,"Hey, officer Zheng, here''s your wallet! Next time, remember to bring more cash!"
Zheng Jing was so angry that he almost spat blood.
He had been wondering why Zhao Anan had stopped stealing money today. It turned out that she had found a new way to do it.
Zheng Jing helplessly walked forward and picked up his wallet. He opened it and found that the one thousand Yuan He had brought with him today had all been taken away by Zhao Anan.
In the past, she had at least left him two Yuan to take the bus, but today, she didn''t even leave him any money for the bus!
Zheng Jing was so angry. Even if he wanted to follow Zhao Anan, he didn''t have enough money to take a taxi.
He had to call one of his men and tell him the license te number of the car, so that he could keep an eye on it in case anything happened to Zhao Anan.
He had to go eat something so that he would have the energy to waste on that little great aunt!
Zheng Jing turned around and went back to Mu Qing''s apartment. He went up to the 11th floor and knocked on the door."All my money was taken away by your woman, so I''m here to freeload! By the way, I''ll settle the bill with you. She stole ten thousand Yuan from me in half a month. At the same time, in order to prevent her from stealing my money in the future, I want to advance another 10000 Yuan! That''s twenty thousand in total. Hurry up and pay up!"
Mu Qing had thought that Zhao Anan hade back, so he opened the door happily. But it was Zheng Jing who hade to collect his debt.
He was very unhappy and said,"you''re not serious. Can''t you give your sister-inw some money to spend?" Stingy! Are we still brothers?"
"Blood Brothers should settle ounts clearly, not to mention that we''re not Blood Brothers. Don''t be so long-winded, hurry up and take the money. There are still more than ten days before my sry is paid. If you don''t pay me, I''ll have to live on air!"
Mu Qing red at him, but still took out twenty thousand Yuan from the drawer and gave
it to Zheng Jing."If Anan is short of money, you can give her more. At most, you can ask me to reimburse you!"
"Forget it, I don''t dare to pay more. About 1000 is fine. This price can only buy domestic flights, not international ones. If I give more and she runs away with the money, you''ll eat me up!"
The two brothers quarreled and had a simple lunch together. After that, they went their separate ways. Zheng Jing went back to protect Zhao Anan while Mu Qing went to the hospital.
When he got back to the hospital in the afternoon, he heard the doctors and nurses call him "Dean mu" again. Mu Qing knew that he had be the head of the hospital again.
Chapter 675: Ill wait for him
Chapter 675: I''ll wait for him
Mu Qing greeted the doctors and nurses along the way and went back to his office.
Zhao Anan''s plea yesterday had worked so quickly that Grandpa had really made him the director again.
If it had not been for Zhao Anan, it would have taken a long time for him to be the director again. Mu wen was angry at him for leaving the hospital and going to the United Kingdom. He was punishing him now.
When mu Tongyi saw him, he heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile,""I''m finally free from my misery. I''ve returned the hospital to you in its entirety. Look, the business hasn''t declined, has it? His scientific research wasn''tgging behind, was it? She had been so worried that she couldn''t even sleep well! After such a long time, I''m so tired that I''ve lost weight!"
"Big brother, you''ve worked hard. You''ve managed the hospital very well, but I''m not doing much better than you! I originally wanted to have more free time, but now I can ''t!"
In terms of running a hospital, Mu Tong did not have as many resources as Mu Qing, nor was he as talented as Mu Qing. He was more than capable of keeping up with the times, but he could not go any further. Mu Qing was the only one in the MU family who could do it.
Therefore, Mu Tong was afraid that he would make a mistake while he was in charge of the hospital and that he would lose face when he returned the hospital to Mu Qing.
His originally round figure had really lost more than ten pounds due to excessive worry during this period. He looked a little more handsome, and his nickname of "wooden bucket" was almost lost.
He didn''t like being the hospital director. He had to deal with so many things all day. It was too tiring. It was better to be a Doctor Who specialized in treating and saving people.
It didn''t matter to Mu Qing whether he was the Dean or not.
In fact, Mu Tong could run the hospital well. Mu Qing had never thought of taking back the position of director. After all, it was family MU''s Hospital, and it didn''t matter who was the director.
Even if he didn''t be the hospital director, no one in the hospital would dare to bully him. All kinds of experimental equipment were used casually, and medical research projects were carried out in an orderly manner. It didn''t affect him much. Zhao Anan''s rtionship with him was a mess.
As for Zhao Anan finding out that Mu Qing didn''t ept any more surgeries, it was his own request.
The research and development of the tumor cell suppression drug had entered the final experimental stage. It had already achieved very good results on white mice, and the next step would be to use it for human experiments.
If the result was good, it would be a major breakthrough for Mu Qing in the medical field and he would be famous internationally.
More importantly, these drugs could save the lives of countless cancer patients and Zhao Anan.
If cancer was treated in time and the most effective medicine was used, it could be cured.
Zhao Anan''s first two episodes had been discovered in the early stages. The cancer cells in her body were only killed after she had gone through both chemotherapy and drugs.
If they were discovered toote, the cancer cells would spread, and no medicine would be of any use.
The anti-cancer drugs developed by Mu Qing were the same. They could only be used on patients in the early stage, and could not be used in thete stage.&
nbsp;
That was why he had told Zhao Anan to tell him immediately if anything happened. The longer it took, the harder it would be to cure.
The two brothers had a good rtionship since they were young. The two of them talked for a while,ined about the old man together, and thenughed and went to do their own things.
Mu Qing had only done two operations in the past week. One was to take out a bullet for Lu, and the other was to take out a bullet for Jing Yiran. Both of their surgeries were performed at night, and no one could know about it, so there was no record of it on the hospital''s website.
He put on a sterile suit and entered the intensive care unit.
.
Jing Yiran had not woken up yet. He was still wearing the oxygen mask and lying on the bed quietly. He had lost his usual arrogance and his face was as pale as a fragile and beautiful porcin.
Lu was still by his side, looking a little dazed.
The environment was very safe now. There was only a faint smell of disinfectant in the intensive care unit, and no smell of blood.
By right, she should be sleeping now and another Lu should be upying her brain and body.
But no, she was still awake. The other Lu had not appeared.
She guessed that she was too worried about Jing Yiran, that was why she didn''t fall asleep.
This had never happened before, because she had never felt so uneasy and ufortable.
It was not until she saw Mu Qing that her eyes lit up.
"When will he wake up?"
"I''ve had simr surgeries before, and they usually take three to five days. There''s a very small chance that I''ll wake up in one day, and there''s also a very small chance that ... I''ll never wake up. " Mu Qing answered carefully. Although he was confident in his medical skills, the human brain was the mostplicated part of the human body. Even if he made no mistakes during the operation, he could not guarantee that Jing Yiran''s immune system would be able to function normally during the recovery process.
Jing Yiran was still wearing all kinds of equipment. Mu Qing checked his body and then took off his sterile gloves to check his pulse.
Half an hourter, Mu Qing raised his head and consoled Lu,"His body is still in a normal state and is recovering. Don''t worry."
Lu nodded."Okay. I am not in a hurry. I will wait for him to wake up."
She looked cold and did not seem to be in much pain or anxiety, but Mu Qing knew that she must be feeling terrible. But she was not good at expressing her feelings and would never show it.
"You''ve been watching over him all this time. You didn''t rest?"
"I don''t need to rest."
"Have you eaten?"
"No, I didn ''t,"
"How can you do that? go eat something first and then sleep. Otherwise, you''ll fall down before he wakes up."
"I''m fine,"she said.
"I know that you have a special Constitution. It won''t be a big problem for you to stay up for two or three days, but it''s also harmful to your body. Listen to me, go and eat something first. Otherwise, how can you have enough energy to take care of him?"
Lu didn''t say anything, nor did she move. Clearly, she wouldn''t listen to Mu Qing. She just wanted to stay by Jing Yiran''s side.
Mu Qing had no choice. He had to give up temporarily since he couldn''t persuade Lu. He reckoned that she would go to find food when she couldn''t stand it anymore. Besides, Jing Yiran would wake up in a few days and Lu would be able to survive till then even if she didn''t eat anything and only drank water.
He took a look at Jing Yiran and sighed. He didn''t know what kind of luck Jing Yiran had to be able to catch Lu''s eye and get her to take care of him so loyally.
Mu Qing didn''t stay in the intensive care unit for too long. He left after making sure that Jing Yiran was in good condition.
After that, he drove to the Research Institute.
Chapter 676: A venomous beauty (1)
Chapter 676: A venomous beauty (1)
Family MU''s Hospital had its own independent research institute, which was dedicated to the study of various drugs and disease Control. It was located in the suburbs of A city and upied arge area. It was thergest Medical Research Institute in A city.
Here, Mu Qing had his own Cancer Research team. They carried out medical research day and night to solve the problems of cancer.
The reason why Mu Qing had such a high sess rate in brain tumor surgery was that he had his own research team, which yed a huge role in it.
However, every project in medical research cost a lot of money, not to mention the cancer Research. If it had not been for Jing Yichen''s support, he would not have been able to carry on with this project.
When Mu Qing walked into the Research Institute, all the researchers and doctors were greeting him.
He smiled and nodded at them one by one. Then, he went to the R & D room in the Oncology Department.
The specialist in charge of cancer suppression drugs was an American named Barton. He was 54 years old and had been researching cancer cells for nearly 30 years.
His wife and daughter both died of cancer. Now, he was all alone and had devoted all his efforts to the development of anti-cancer drugs.
Mu Qing was touched by his spirit of scientific research and his love for his wife and daughter. He built a separateboratory for him and allowed him to spend as much money as he wanted.
Barton and Mu Qing had very simr ideas in the research and development of anti-cancer drugs. In his early years, he had stayed in research institutes in the United States and Germany. However, his ideas were not popr and he did not receive much support. Therefore, the research had not made much progress.
Later on, Mu Qing met Barton when he went to attend an Oncology meeting in Germany. They had a good chat and even regretted not meeting each other earlier.
When he heard that Mu Qing could provide sufficient financial support for the research and development of the medicine, Barton followed him to China without hesitation. He had been working in the Research Institute of family MU''s Hospital for eight years now and he could even speak Chinese very fluently.
Today, Mu Qing and Barton would be selecting suitable cancer volunteers for the drug testing.
Mu Qing had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Although the volunteers had already gone through the first round of selection, and this was the second round of selection, the two of them were still very careful in their selection. They kept discussing which one was suitable and which one was not, and even had a fierce debate over it.
Of course, to them, arguments were already amon urrence.
In the medical world, different voices were needed, and progress was made through debate.
By the time the first batch of twenty cancer volunteers were selected, it was alreadyte at night.
Mu Qing was exhausted, but his eyes were bright.
He could recite all the anti-cancer drugs in the world backwards, and he was also very clear about the medicinal properties and healing abilities that could be exerted.
He believed that the new drug that he and Bar
ton had developed together would have a more significant effect. At the same time, it would also greatly reduce the side effects of anti-cancer drugs.
He drove back to the city from the suburbs. When he returned to his apartment, it was already past one in the morning.
As soon as he opened the door and walked in, Mu Qing heard a woman''s voice. "You''re back. "
.
Mu Qing''s hand trembled and the key fell to the ground.
This voice ...
He suddenly looked up and saw a beautiful woman sitting on the sofa in the living room.
She was wearing an aqua-blue chiffon dress with a white knitted cardigan. On her fair feet was a pair of hollow high heels. Her legs were straight and slender, and her waist was slender. She had a cold temperament, noble and elegant.
Her facial features were extremely delicate. She had long eyshes, big eyes, a high nose bridge, red lips, and white skin that was so delicate that water could be squeezed out.
Mu Qing was stunned for a while and then asked with uncertainty,"Yang Muyan?"
"Oh, I didn''t expect you to recognize me at a nce. It seems that I still have a very important ce in your heart."
Yang Muyan smiled, showing a happy expression.
The current yang Muyan only looked 30% like the Yang Muyan from before. Mu Qing stared at her face and said in disbelief,"How did you end up like this? You had stic surgery?"
Yang Muyan touched her smooth face and said,"I just did some minor stic surgery. Why? am I not pretty now?"
"This isn''t a matter of whether you''re pretty or not. You''re not you anymore after stic surgery." Although she was beautiful, Mu Qing felt that she looked very awkward. Her face seemed to be fake.
"This is the effect I want." Yang Muyan didn''t care at all."As long As You Like It, you can be whatever you want." Since you don''t like my old face, I will change it. If you don''t like it either, I will make myself look like Zhao Anan. I think you will like it. "
Mu Qing was startled and waved his hands hurriedly."No, no, no, you''re fine now. You''re very, very beautiful. You don''t need stic surgery anymore!"
What a joke. His Zhao Anan was unique. If yang Muyan had stic surgery to look like Zhao Anan, he would feel terrible.
Zhao Anan''s face did not belong to someone like yang Muyan.
Yang Muyan was very satisfied with Mu Qing''s answer. She stared at Mu Qing and smiled gently.
Yang Muyan was very pretty now. She had been educated to be a noble since she was a child, so she behaved like ady from a rich family. She sat there quietly with a faint smile on her face. Those who didn''t know her would think that she was a gentle, gentle, and well-mannered noble beauty.
Even Mu Qing, who knew how perverted she was and how ugly she was in the past, had to admit that she was really pleasing to the eye when she was putting on an act.
However, Mu Qing was not in the mood to appreciate the beauty.
He frowned at yang Muyan, who was sitting on the sofa in his house, and asked in an unfriendly tone,""How did you get in? It''ste, shouldn''t you be leaving?"
"It''s veryte, s
o I came here. I just wanted to give you a surprise. Don''t you want to have a romantic night with me? As for entering your house, that''s very easy. I have the key to your house. "
Yang Muyan said with a perfect smile. Then, she spread out her fair and tender fingers. In her pale pink palm was a key that was not too new.
She was really too beautiful now. Her facial features were exquisite, and she had light makeup on. Just a gentle smile was enough to make people feel that she was so beautiful that she could cause the downfall of a city.
Mu Qing wasn''t surprised by her at all. He said angrily,"How did you get the key to my house? Give it back to me!"
Chapter 677: The venomous beauty (2)
Chapter 677: The venomous beauty (2)
He had just promised Zhao Anan that he would not let any other woman into the house, and now there was a Vixen in the middle of the night! This made Mu Qing very angry.
Yang Muyan crossed her long legs and saidzily, as if she had not seen Mu Qing''s anger."Oh, I got this key from Zhao Anan. She''s so stupid, it''s easy to get the key from her. "
She saw the veins on Mu Qing''s forehead popping out and he looked like he was going to eat her up. She shook her head and said, "Don''t be so fierce. It will affect your handsomeness. I don''t like it. "
"Also, I''m the only one who can have the key to this house. No other woman can have it. No other woman cane in except me. Otherwise, there''s only one oue!"
Mu Qing was so angry that his face turned pale."This is my home, not yours. I have the final say." He said. Give me the key and get out of here immediately! Also, you are not allowed to mess with Zhao Anan in the future, or you will die!"
He didn''t know how yang Muyan had gotten the key from Zhao Anan. Zheng Jing and his men had been following Zhao Anan the whole day, so yang Muyan shouldn''t have had the chance to do anything to her.
If she could take the key from Zhao Anan''s bag without anyone knowing, it meant that she was powerful enough to kill Zhao Anan without anyone knowing.
Mu Qing broke out in a cold sweat when he thought of this possibility.
His voice was sharp and his expression was fierce. He no longer had his usual sunny and clear look.
He couldn''t be nice when Zhao Anan''s personal safety was at stake.
He must ask Jing Yichen to send more people to protect Zhao Anan tomorrow!
"Oh, really? Are you sure this is your home?"
Yang Muyan smiled coldly and took out a property ownership certificate from her baby. She waved it at Mu Qing and said, "Let''s see whose house it is now. "
Mu Qing walked to her side and picked up the brand-new property ownership certificate, suppressing his anger. He opened it and found that the address of the house was his, but the name of the owner was: Yang Muyan!
This was his house, when did it be yang Muyan ''s?
Mu Qing threw the property certificate on the ground and said angrily,"Yang Muyan, you''ve gone too far! This is my house. Don''t you dare touch this house! Are you ying dirty? Then let''s see who can beat who!"
Yang Muyan was usually fierce and violent to others, but she was very nice to Mu Qing.
She was not angry at all that Mu Qing had smashed her property certificate. Instead, she said gently, "What''s mine is yours, isn''t it? I spent a lot of effort to transfer the house to you just to tell you that I can get whatever I want. I don''t want it because I don''t care. I don''t need money, I only need a man like you!"
Even though she had a beautiful face, Mu Qing still felt disgu
sted by yang Muyan''s words.
He had never seen such a shameless woman!
Over the years, there were many women who pursued him, and some of them would pester him. However, after he gave them a cold face, they would usually give up. Women were usually thin-skinned and would not shamelessly continue to hang around in front of him after being rejected.
Yang Muyan was the only one who had dered that she would marry him when she was extremely ugly. Now that she was married to Ji Bo, she still wanted to marry him.
"Miss yang, I think you''re mistaken. I have nothing to do with you. What''s mine is mine, and what''s yours is yours. Please don''te and disturb my life in the future. You''re a married woman. It''ll be very unpleasant to hear that you came to my house in the middle of the night. I''ll say it onest time, I don''t like you, please conduct yourself!"
Yang Muyan suddenly stood up and walked up to Mu Qing. Her beautiful face almost touched Mu Qing''s face, which scared him so much that he took two steps back."What are you doing? Get away from me!"
Yang Muyan was expressionless. She asked,"Does my dress look nice?"
Her dress was a refreshing water blue, which was Mu Qing''s favorite color. Zhao Anan might not know what Mu Qing''s favorite color was, but yang Muyan remembered it clearly.
Mu Qing didn''t know what she meant by that. He frowned and looked at yang Muyan coldly without saying a word.
Yang Muyan didn''t seem to need his answer. She continued, "Don''t you want to take off my dress and see what my body looks like? I''m very beautiful, and no man has ever seen my naked body, let alone touched it. I''ve always kept it for you. Come over and take off my dress, then carry me to bed. I''ll be your woman in the future, and then we''ll have a rtionship. "
Mu Qing couldn''t take it anymore,"crazy!" Yang Muyan, are you crazy? Get out! If you don''t get out, don''t even think about getting out for the rest of your life!"
"Oh, you want to kill me?"
Yang Muyan said as she elegantly unzipped the side of her dress. The dress fell to the ground, revealing her fair body.
She was only wearing a light blue bra. She walked to Mu Qing and said,"If you want to kill me, just go ahead. If I die, Zhao Anan will be buried with me. Even if she doesn''t go out for the rest of her life and stays in the fortress-like vi of the Zhao family, I still have a way to kill her. My people have already set up an ambush and are just waiting for me to die. Come on, kill me. I''m still very happy to die in your hands. "
Mu Qing almost stabbed yang Muyan with the silver needle in his hand.
Yang Muyan would die in an instant!
But Mu Qing couldn''t do that. He didn''t know if yang Muyan was telling the truth. If her people had already set up an ambush, then Zhao Anan''s life would be in danger.
He could
n''t risk Zhao Anan''s life, so he would rather let yang Muyan go for now and discuss with Jing Yichen how to deal with herter.
As for yang Muyan''s alluring body, Mu Qing was not tempted at all.
He was a doctor and he was familiar with women''s bodies. He had seen all kinds of perfect bodies, but he was not interested in yang Muyan''s body at all.
Yang Muyan thought that she knew men very well and she did not believe that Mu Qing would not be tempted by her body.
She reached out to unbutton her bra, revealing a pair of white and plump Jade rabbits. Under the misty light of the night, they looked particrly charming.
Chapter 678: The venomous beauty (3)
Chapter 678: The venomous beauty (3)
Yang Muyan''s body was indeed beautiful. She had a well-proportioned body without a trace of fat. Her chest was full, her hips were round, and her waist was slim. With her snow-white skin, she had the capital to be proud.
If it were any other man, he would definitely be unable to control himself and stare at her near-perfect body greedily. He might even growl and pounce on her to make her his woman.
Unfortunately, she had met Mu Qing.
In his eyes, there was no woman other than Zhao Anan.
Mu Qing''s eyes were clear and emotionless. He looked at yang Muyan from head to toe and sneered, "I''ve seen a lot of women''s bodies. You have so many ws, and you still have the nerve to seduce me? The shape of your chest is also ugly, and it''s drooping so much. I advise you to go for a breast ergement surgery first!"
Yang Muyan frowned, looked at her chest and said, "You''re just picking bones from an egg. "
She kicked off her high heels and hugged Mu Qing tightly, naked.
She whispered into Mu Qing''s ear,"I dream of you every day. I dream of you holding me. Now I am finally in your arms. Carry me to bed. I want you!"
"Get out!" Mu Qing coldly shouted.
Yang Muyan suddenlyughed in a carefree manner, but her delicate facial features were slightly distorted by herughter, which made people feel unspeakably terrified.
"I must have you today. If I Can''t Have You, Zhao Anan won''t be able to see the sun tomorrow!"
Mu Qing''s expression froze and he didn''t speak for a long time.
"Have you decided? Do you want me to save Zhao Anan''s life, or do you not want me to kill Zhao Anan?"
Yang Muyan''s fingers ran across Mu Qing''s chest and started to unbutton his crystal buttons.
She had made the right decision to keep Zhao Anan alive.
Otherwise, Mu Qing would have killed her as soon as he came back.
She liked to deal with these people who were affectionate and righteous. The more affectionate and righteous they were, the easier it was for them to be tied down and the easier it was for her to manipte them.
Although she hated Zhao Anan for upying Mu Qing''s heart and had wanted to kill her several times, she didn''t do it in the end.
Without Zhao Anan, Mu Qing would have nothing to worry about. He wouldn''t be standing in front of her and letting her touch him like he was doing now.
Look, what a perfect figure! He had long, slender legs, a straight back, strong arms, sexy chest muscles, and strong abdominal muscles. She was mesmerized by every part of him.
She liked Mu Qing so much that she was going crazy. Even if she couldn''t win his heart, she had to win his body first!
She wrapped her arms around Mu Qing''s neck and started to kiss him.
Mu Qing patted the back of her head when he saw that she had taken off all her clothes and had no ce to hide anything.
Two silver needles were inserted into the back of yang Muyan''s head.
The next moment, yang Muyan closed her eyes and fell to the floor with a loud thud.
;
Mu Qing didn''t show any mercy to yang Muyan at all. He let her lie on the cold floor, naked. Then he took her clothes and bag and started to look for something.
This evil woman was threatening him with Zhao Anan''s life. Did she really think that he was a sick cat?
.
He would rather die than touch yang Muyan!
Such a disgusting woman, hugging him only made him want to vomit!
What a weirdo, someone even forced a man to F * ck her, crazy!
Mu Qing finally understood why Jing Yichen didn''t allow anyone to touch him and why he would throw up whenever someone touched him. It turned out that when one''s hatred reached a certain level, one would feel unbearable when their skin touched.
He scolded yang Muyan as he rummaged through her bag.
But he didn''t find anything suspicious in yang Muyan''s clothes or bag. Mu Qing turned around and fixed his eyes on yang Muyan.
He checked yang Muyan''s body from head to toe and finally found a micro-sensor under her fancy nails.
If she was going to send a message to her men and ask them to kill Zhao Anan, she would probably need this sensor.
Mu Qing had never used this device before. He was worried that it would be a problem if he took it off. So he called Zheng Jing immediately. He was an expert in this field and had seen many sensors. He knew the functions and taboos of these things.
Zheng Jing was woken up by Mu Qing''s call, but he didn''t show any displeasure. Instead, he asked what was the matter.
Mu Qing was not an insensible person. Something must have happened if he called him at 2 am.
Mu Qing quickly told him what had happened and Zheng Jing made a quick decision. "Don''t move the sensors, I''ll be there immediately!"
Mu Qing hung up Zheng Jing and then called Jing Yichen.
"What''s wrong?"
Jing Yichen''s low and cold voice came from the other side of the phone. He sounded very awake. Apparently, he had not fallen asleep yet.
"Master Jing, yang Muyan is with me! Also, she said that Anan has already arranged for some people to kill her!"
"Keep yang Muyan here for now. I will deal with Anan," Jing Yichen said briefly.
After hanging up the phone, Jing Yichen''s figure disappeared into the night.
Half an hourter, Jing Yichen and Tiger arrived at Mu Qing''s apartment. Soon, Zheng Jing arrived as well.
Yang Muyan was still lying on the floor with her eyes closed, naked.
Jing Yichen and Zheng Jing looked at her, but neither of them had any reaction. Zheng Jing was a little surprised by her unrecognizable face, but Jing Yichen had already known from Jing Yiran that yang Muyan had gone through stic surgery, so he was not surprised at all. He still had an indifferent expression on his face.
Only Tiger was a little shy. He thought that yang Muyan''s body was beautiful. He had never seen such a perfect body.
Of course, that was all.
If Jing Yichen had given the order to kill yang Muyan, he would haveughed and tu
rned the beauty into a corpse without any hesitation.
Tiger, who looked simple and honest on the outside but was cold on the inside, did not have the word "tender and protective towards women" in his dictionary.
Besides, Tiger knew how vicious yang Muyan could be. He would not have any thoughts about her. He was embarrassed, because women were still a mystery to him. He had not experienced what women felt like.
Tiger stubbornly felt that he should leave his first time to his wife.
Such a naked, delicate beauty was lying in the living room, but these four men treated her like a piece of wood. It was really surprising.
Chapter 679: The venomous beauty (4)
Chapter 679: The venomous beauty (4)
Zheng Jing was a Criminal Police officer and he was very experienced in dealing with sensors and explosives. After he saw the sensor under yang Muyan''s nails, he did not move it. He checked her body again and again with a detector in his hand.
When the detector scanned her left chest, it made a beeping sound.
Zheng Jing frowned and looked at the data on the detector. Then he said seriously,"There are four micro-sensors imnted in yang Muyan''s left chest. These four micro-sensors can reflect her physical condition in real time. If she is in danger, the devices connected to the sensors will definitely fluctuate."
Beads of sweat appeared on Mu Qing''s forehead. He said anxiously,"Then will the news spread out in her current state?"
Where did yang Muyan get such a high-tech thing and nt it in his chest? It was indeed crazy!
What if yang Muyan''s men received the signal and wanted to harm Zhao Anan?
Zheng Jing looked at yang Muyan, who seemed to be asleep, and said in a low voice,"The sensors in her body should be newly developed. I''ve never seen them before. However, I''m guessing that as long as there aren''t any major changes to her physical condition, there shouldn''t be any problems. You gave her acupuncture, right?"
Mu Qing nodded."Yes. She said that if anything happened to her, Anan would be killed. So I just put her to sleep and didn''t hurt her."
"Then it should be fine." Zheng Jing heaved a sigh of relief.
Jing Yichen, who was standing aside, suddenly said,"Mu Qing, wake her up and ask her who else she has taken control of besides Zhao Anan."
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing were both stunned.
What did that mean? Could it be that yang Muyan had other people''s lives in her hands?
Jing Yichen wasn''t sure either. He knew yang Muyan better than them. She would nevere to Mu Qing alone just to control Zhao Anan.
Although she liked Mu Qing and wanted him very much, she was not so blinded by love that she lost her mind.
In other words, what she felt for Mu Qing was not love, but possession.
Yang Muyan''s stubbornness was very simr to Tang shunian ''s, and they were equally ruthless. The only difference was that yang Muyan''s IQ and EQ were higher than Tang shunian'' s, and she was better at scheming than him.
Mu Qing took out the silver needles from the back of yang Muyan''s head and patted her face to wake her up.
When yang Muyan woke up, she saw three men in front of her. She was not surprised at all, and still looked calm.
But she was very angry at the moment, because she hated it when other men saw her naked body except for Mu Qing.
Although she was extremely angry, there was no trace of shyness on her face.
She stood up calmly, picked up her underwear from the ground, and put it on u
nhurriedly. Then, she picked up her skirt and put it on. When she was done, she said in a vicious voice,""Mu Qing, they saw me tonight and tomorrow, they will take turns to enjoy Zhao Anan. I mean what I say!"
.
Her voice was still hoarse and unpleasant. Mu Qing shivered in his heart when he saw her vicious expression.
Mu Qing suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and looked at her in disgust."How good do you think you are? We even thought that you were dirtying our eyes!"
Yang Muyan''s face turned pale with anger, but she was good at controlling her emotions, so she quickly recovered.
She sat down on the sofa and arrogantly said,""Very good, you''re all here so quickly. It seems that I''m very important to you all. I haven''t killed anyone in a long time. Or should I just kill all four of you together?"
Jing Yichen looked down at her and said coldly,"Tell me what trump cards you have. Otherwise, you won''t be able to speak when you die."
He really wanted to kill yang Muyan. If he let go of such a good opportunity, it would be more difficult to find yang Muyan in the future.
Yang Muyan smiled and pped her hands, as if she was pping for Jing Yichen."I like talking to smart people like you. It saves time and energy."
She nced at Mu Qing''s face and said,"I am here today because I want Mu Qing. If I can get him, then nothing will happen. If you can''t get it, the people around you will all die one by one!"
She turned to look at Zheng Jing, who was looking very righteous."Officer Zheng, how is your sister? Did she cough a little yesterday? Actually, her throat has been hurting for many days, but she didn''t tell you. Aiyo, what a deep sibling love. She''s been bearing the burden since she was sick, afraid that you''d worry if she told you!"
Zheng Jing, who had been sitting on the sofa, suddenly stood up and said sternly, What did you do to my sister?!"
Zheng Lun had not coughed a bit yesterday, but had coughed badly. She didn''t know what was wrong with her. She thought that she had caught a cold and didn''t pay much attention to it.
It turned out to be yang Muyan''s doing!
Zheng Jing felt that all the blood in his body was rushing to the top of his head. The anger in his heart made him almost want to kill yang Muyan.
"Oh, don''t be nervous. She won''t die for now." Yang Muyan ignored his anger and said,"However, in a few days, her voice will be like mine. It''ll be so good, like a crow''s cry! Hahahaha ..."
Sheughed out loud. Her voice was rough and unpleasant. It was really like what she said, like the CAW of a Crow.
"You dare! I''m going to kill you!"
Zheng Lun was a taboo in Zheng Jing''s heart. If anyone hurt her, he would pay them back ten times over.
"Oh, don''t get so worked up. I''m not done yet. In a week, her voice will be the same as mine,
but that''s too easy on her. Do you think I''m such a kind person?"
Yang Muyan''s lips curved up into a cruel smile."Of course I''m not a kind person. My goal is to make her a mute! I won''t be able to make any sound in this life!"
Zheng Jing was so angry that his face turned pale. His ck eyes were burning with anger that he had lost his mind. He raised his foot and was about to kick yang Muyan.
Mu Qing hugged him in a hurry and shouted,"Zheng Jing, don''t be rash!"
Yang Muyan sat on the sofa steadily, maintaining an elegant posture. She didn''t move at all, as if she was sure that Zheng Jing wouldn''t do anything to her.
Chapter 680: Revenge
Chapter 680: Revenge
"Zheng Jing, you''d better behave yourself. Otherwise, I will have her tongue cut off right now.| Head! You haven''t tasted it and you don''t have a tongue.| What did it feel like to kiss the leader''s woman? I think you''ll vomit in disgust and never like your sister again! Hahaha!"
Yang Muyan was really a changed person.| She would say anything that provoked them. Was she deliberately forcing them to kill her?
Even Mu Qing was furious when he heard what yang Muyan was going to do to Zheng Lun, let alone Zheng Jing.
But she really couldn''t act rashly now, otherwise yang Muyan would really cut off Zheng Lun''s tongue.| This kind of thing!
Yang Muyan sat there andughed hysterically. Her voice was so unpleasant that herughter was no different from a ghost''s wail.
Such an unpleasant voice, coupled with her delicate and perfect face, was extremely strange and creepy.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this really opened my eyes. Are all men so infatuated these days? Master Jing, I heard that you are also a devoted man. It''s such a pity that you have protected Shangguan ning So well that I can''t reach my hand into her mouth. Otherwise, I would have made her a mute. "
Jing Yichen stared at yang Muyan coldly and said in an indifferent tone,"No need to show off. I know all your tricks. It''s useless to me. If anything happens to Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun, you will suffer a hundred times more than them, until you die. Zhao Anan is fine now. As for Zheng Lun, did she cough yesterday?"
Yang Muyan suddenly felt uneasy."So what if I am!"
"Mu Qing, let miss yang have a taste of coughing. Don''t hold back, she has to cough out blood."
He coughed up blood?
How bad would that cough be! This meant that her lungs would be damaged!
Mu Qing walked up to yang Muyan and quickly inserted four silver needles into different parts of her head.
"Cough, cough, cough ..."
Yang Muyan''s acupuncture points were stimted, causing her to cough violently.
She had not expected that Jing Yichen would let Mu Qing do it without any hesitation, regardless of her threats.
The living room was filled with yang Muyan''s heart-wrenching coughs. Although Zheng Jing felt relieved, he was still worried after he calmed down.
He asked Jing Yichen with his eyes,"will Zheng Lun be okay?"
Jing Yichen knew what he was worried about. So he said calmly, "Don''t worry, I''ve already sent people to your house. But my people can''t cure Zheng Lun''s throat. I will let Mu Qing take a look at her. "
Zheng Jing was finally at ease.
It turned out that Jing Yichen had already predicted that yang Muyan would deal with his family.
Zheng Lun had only coughed yesterday, and her voice had not changed much. Mu Qing had excellent medical skills, so it should not be a problem for him to cure Zheng Lun.
Mu Qing was having a great time torturing yang Muyan. He patted Zheng Jing on the shoulder and said,"Yes, leave it to me. There are only a few ways to make your voice hoarse. As long as you treat it in time, you won''t have to worry about yang Muyan!"
"Good brother!" Zheng Jing also patted Mu Qin
g''s shoulder.
While the three of them were talking, yang Muyan was almost out of breath.
She fumbled around, trying to pull out the silver needles on her head, but the moment she touched them, her head hurt as if they were being pricked.
Mu Qing reminded her "out of kindness"."You''d better stay still. Not anyone can touch my silver needles. Don''t me me for not warning you if you fall into a vegetative state because of them."
Yang Muyan didn''t dare to move, but she was in so much pain from the violent coughing that her voice was hoarse."Stop ... Stop ... Stop ..."
She said "stop" over and over again, but Jing Yichen didn''t seem to hear her. He stood in front of her and looked down at her. He didn''t ask Mu Qing to pull out the needles until she really coughed up blood.
After the silver needles were pulled out, yang Muyan''s cough gradually stopped. Her voice was so hoarse that she couldn''t speak. Her beautiful blue dress was already stained with blood from her coughing.
She grabbed the half cup of water left by Mu Qing and gulped it down in one go.
However, drinking water couldn''t relieve the burning sensation caused by the violent cough. Her throat was still very ufortable, and it was so painful that tears fell.
The pain in her throat reminded her of the day when Jing zhongxiu destroyed the Yang family.
The Yang family''s luxurious vis copsed one after another. The sound of explosions rose one after another, so loud that people''s ears couldn''t hear any other sound.
The raging fire burned fiercely, and it took her a lot of effort to rush out of the fire and run into the secret passage.
For the rest of her life, she would never forget the suffocating feeling and needle-like pain that the smoke and fire had brought to her throat.
It was on that day that her voice became hoarse, rough, and unpleasant, just like a malicious ghost!
She was filled with hatred and swore that she would make sure that all the members of family Jing would be tortured and that family Jing would be destroyed.
And now, she had the urge to destroy everyone!
Jing Yichen, Zheng Jing and even Mu Qing, she would destroy them all! Although she liked Mu Qing, if she couldn''t have him, no other woman could.
"You ... All of you will die! I will kill you all ... One by one!"
Yang Muyan''s expression was ferocious. There was no trace of grace and calmness on her beautiful face.
She wanted to scream and roar, but her voice was already hoarse. Everyone could only see her mouth open and close, but they could not hear what she was saying.
Jing Yichen understood lip-reading.
"Master Jing, what is this woman talking about?" Mu Qing was a little anxious. Although yang Muyan''s voice was terrible just now, at least she could still make some sound. Now she was silent, as if she was watching a silent movie. It was so ufortable.
Zheng Jing also looked at Jing Yichen with a questioning look. He knew that Jing Yichen could read lips.
Jing Yichen said calmly,"it''s okay. She was just dreaming." Mu Qing, do you have any way to make her speak
temporarily?"
"Yes, there is!" Mu Qing said after some thought.
After he finished speaking, he turned around and went to the medicine room at home. After rummaging in it for a while, he came out with a cup of light brown Medicine.
He ced the medicine in front of yang Muyan and said,"Drink it. You can speak temporarily after drinking it."
How could yang Muyan drink it? who knew what kind of medicine was added to the water? would it kill her or make her mute forever?
Seeing that she refused to drink it, Mu Qing squeezed her mouth and poured it into her mouth without saying anything.
Chapter 681: Prove my strength with practical actions!
Chapter 681: Prove my strength with practical actions!
Yang Muyan had a high IQ and EQ, but she was a weak girl. She could not resist a strong man like Mu Qing. She could not move when Mu Qing pressed her down on the sofa.
Yang Muyan felt a burning pain in her throat again after she poured the medicine in. But after the pain, her throat suddenly felt cool and veryfortable.
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows and asked,"how is it? does your throat feel better now?" This is my exclusive secret recipe, it can make your throat temporarily more normal. "
Before yang Muyan could feel happy, Mu Qing said,"Of course, such a strong drug must have some side effects. I guess that after you drank that cup, your t peach will at least swell up to the size of a steamed bun. You won''t be able to speak or eat for a week! I hope you can survive these seven days and not starve to death. "
Yang Muyan was extremely angry.
She had suffered a great loss here today!
Jing Yichen''s reaction was much faster than she had expected and he seemed to havee prepared. She was not in an advantageous position now.
"You''ll see my methods very soon!"
After taking the medicine, yang Muyan could speak again. Although her voice was still hoarse, it was much better than before.
"If you have the ability, then kill me today. Otherwise, all your women will die! Of course, even if I die, they will still die, and they will all die miserably. If you don''t believe me, just wait and see. "
Both Mu Qing and Zheng Jing looked upset. They believed in yang Muyan''s words and knew that she could do it.
Jing Yichen was the only one who remained calm,"you came here today to lure me here so that you can get beaten up." Do you think that my wife and child will fall into your hands after I leave?"
"So, you know everything!" Yang Muyan''s expression changed.
"You''ve already used this kind of method more than once. Even a fool should have guessed it!"
Jing Yichen''s eyes were cold as he said,"Alright, by now, your men should all be dead. You can get lost."
"Hmph! So what if you know? I didn''t n to kill your woman and child. This is too easy on them! As long as they''re alive, you''ll always have a fatal weakness!"
Yang Muyan sneered and gradually regained her calmness.
"How about this, I''ll kill a person first as an appetizer. It''s also good to let you know that a person will die when I want him to die. Of course, you can send someone to protect me, or you can keep an eye on me. You''ll know that all attempts to stop it will be useless!"
"Who do you want to kill?" Mu Qing shouted at her. Don''t you dare touch Anan!"
"Don''t worry, I will not kill Zhao Anan. She is so important to you. I''ll kill an unimportant one and show you my strength! In the future, if anyone dares to act rashly, then don''t me me for being impolite!"
A few minutester, Jing Yichen''s phone rang. He picked it up and heard Ji Bo''s voice."Master Jing, my cousin, Ji Lili, just died. I guess yang Muyan was the one who killed her. There are many people lying in ambush near our
vi. I think it''s very strange. "
"Alright, I see," Jing Yichen said calmly.
He hung up the phone and looked at yang Muyan coldly.
.
Yang Muyan also looked at Jing Yichen and praised, "You''re so smart. You''ve already guessed that the person I want to kill is Ji Lili. However, I don''t think that your people are protecting her even though they''re near the Ji residence. You can''t wait for Ji Lili to die, can you?"
Ji Lili had embarrassed Shangguan ning before, so Jing Yichen couldn''t protect her. It would be good enough if he didn''t order Ji Lili to be killed.
It was a good thing for Jing Yichen to get rid of Ji Lili with the help of yang Muyan.
Zheng Jing and Mu Qing realized that yang Muyan had killed Ji Lili while they were talking.
Ji Lili was family Ji''s precious daughter. Although she was domineering and self-proimed as a Princess, she had caused a lot of trouble for family Ji and annoyed Ji Bo. However, if she died, the Ji family would definitely not let this matter rest!
Yang Muyan was not afraid of family Ji''s revenge at all!
Although Ji Minyu was no longer the mayor of A city, family Ji still had a lot of connections in the political and business world. Even Jing Yichen had been afraid of touching family Ji.
Yang Muyan was challenging two powerful families in A city.
Mu Qing looked at Ji Lili with pity in his eyes.
No matter how smart she was, no matter how scheming she was, she was only one person.
Family yang might have left her a huge amount of wealth that she could spend for many years, but family Jing and family Ji were the first and second most powerful families in A city. Family yang was still there and was still in its Prime, but they dared not to go against the two families, let alone yang Muyan.
Yang Muyan would not have a good ending.
The olddy of family Ji was not someone to be trifled with. Otherwise, she would not have protected Ji Lili for so many years. No matter what Ji Lili did, no one dared to touch her.
When Ji Lili had a fight with Shangguan ning, Jing Yichen had only beaten Ji Lili up, sent her to prison and asked family Ji to pay for it. He didn''t take her life. If he really did take Ji Lili''s life, family Ji and family Jing would never forgive each other.
What Mu Qing didn''t know was that yang Muyan wasn''t afraid of family Ji at all. After she married Ji Bo, she had a good grasp of family Ji''s power and she was confident that she could deal with them.
What she was really afraid of was the Jing family.
Not only Jing Yichen, but Jing zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan were also very powerful. They were not only cruel and ruthless, but they were also very intelligent and difficult to deal with.
Jing Yichen was only in his thirties, but he was already on the verge of surpassing Jing zhongxiu. He was the most talented person in family Jing at the moment. Yang Muyan was not sure if she could win against him, even though she was very proud of herself.
That was why she kept t
esting him.
Today was a test.
The result of the test made yang Muyan a little scared.
She didn''t dare to stay here any longer. She needed to leave immediately.
Thanks to the fact that she had prepared well before she came here today, Jing Yichen would not have been able to get rid of all the people she had set up in ambush in such a short time. Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun''s lives were still in her hands, and they were her biggest bargaining chips.
Zheng Jing and Mu Qing were both Jing Yichen''s assistants, and both of them were very important. At the same time, they were also his weakness.
Chapter 682: You are not a God
Chapter 682: You are not a God
If these two big powers were eliminated, Jing Yichen''s power would be greatly reduced. Especially without family mu and family MU''s Hospital, he would not be able to get the best treatment and it would be easier to kill him.
Yang Muyan looked at Mu Qing deeply, then picked up her bag and walked out.
She would keep Mu Qing alive, but she was not satisfied that she had not gotten this man. As for the rest of the MU family, they could all die!
After Yang Muyan left, the four men in the room fell into a short silence.
After a while, Mu Qing suddenly remembered that yang Muyan still had the key to his apartment. He asked Zheng Jing,"Yang Muyan took the key to my apartment from Anan during the day. You''ve been following Anan. Did you find anything suspicious?"
Zheng Jing was surprised. He thought for a while and said, "There''s nothing suspicious. I''ve been following her all this time. When I came to your ce for dinner, my subordinate followed me and reported to me that everything was normal. Anan didn''t stay outside for long today, she took a taxi back to house Zhao. How did yang Muyan get her keys?"
He was a little scared. Was yang Muyan that powerful? She could do anything right under his nose?
Hearing their conversation, Jing Yichen suddenly said,"There should be a problem with that taxi."
Zheng Jing was startled. He suddenly remembered what his subordinate had said jokingly,"Lady Zhao is born in the Year of the Pig. She can eat and sleep well. She fell asleep as soon as she got in the taxi and got out of the car in a daze when she arrived at the Zhao family''s house."
"Yes, it''s the problem of the car rental! Anan fell asleep in the taxi. It must be yang Muyan''s people who did it. "
Zhao Anan usually dozed off in the car, but this time, it was a little different.
Zheng Jing''s face turned a little pale."What should we do now? we can''t always be with Anan and protect her."
And now there was Zheng Lun.
Although Zheng Lun was not as yful as Zhao Anan and stayed at home most of the time, she was still in danger even at home.
Zheng Jing couldn''t help Zhao Anan at the thought of Zheng Lun being in danger. He wished that he could stay at home 24 hours a day and follow Zheng Lun wherever she went.
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing were Jing Yichen''s good friends. He consoled them, "Don''t worry, I will deal with yang Muyan and Zheng Lun and Anan. We will be safe for now. However, the two of them also had the basic right to know. If they knew, they could better protect themselves from being cheated. Zheng Jing, can you tell Zheng Lun that Zhao Anan ..."
"I''ll go and tell them!" Mu Qing said.
Jing Yichen threw a nce at him and said expressionlessly,"I have to go home and ask ning if you can go. If she says you can go, then you can go."
Mu Qing wanted to roll his eyes. Did Jing Yichen have to be so obedient to his wife? This would easily destroy his noble and cold image!
But apparently, even if he rolled his eyes, he could not change Jing Yichen''s mind. He cou
ld only pray that Shangguan ning would let him go to Zhao Anan and exin to her about yang Muyan.
If Mu Qing knew what would happen if he exined to Zhao Anan about yang Muyan in person, he would never do it.
Jing Yichen told Mu Qing about the bodyguards he had sent to family Zhao and Zheng, and then asked Mu Qing about Jing Yiran. He heard that Jing Yiran was still in aa and left without saying anything.
Although he looked calm, he was actually very anxious.
Yang Muyan had sent the most people to deal with Shangguan ning. Her main targets today were Shangguan ning and Jing Rui, not Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun. They were just smokescreens.
Although Lee duo had sent him a message saying that everything at home had been settled and that Shangguan ning and Jing Rui were safe, he was still worried about them.
But he had toe to Mu Qing''s ce today. If he did note, yang Muyan would really kill Zhao Anan or Zheng Lun.
Neither of these two people could die, so he could onlye.
However, before he came, he had already arranged everything. He had to first ensure the safety of his wife and son before he would care about others.
In his heart, Zhao Anan was his cousin. Although she was important, one Shangguan ning was more important than ten Zhao Anan.
Tiger drove fast and arrived atndscapepound in less than 10 minutes.
When Jing Yichen got home, Shangguan ning was waiting for him on the sofa in the living room.
Seeing that he had returned, she immediately got up and looked him up and down. After confirming that he was not injured, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Jing Yichen took off his coat and threw it on the sofa. Then he picked up Shangguan ning and walked into the bedroom.
"Is our son asleep?"
"Yes, he just fell asleep. He''s very well-behaved and didn''t cry when he heard the gunshot. He''ll definitely be a brave man in the future, just like you."
Jing Yichenid on the bed with her in his arms and caressed her smooth back with his big hands, as if he wasforting her and loving her.
"Ning, are you afraid?"
Shangguan ning buried her face in Jing Yichen''s chest and said honestly, "I''m scared, but I''m used to it now. I know that there are people protecting me outside. I''m just worried that you''ll get hurt if you go out sote at night."
Jing Yichen held Shangguan ning in his arms, but he felt very upset.
He wanted to give Shangguan ning the most stable and peaceful life, instead of making her worry all the time. And Jing Rui, he was still so young and should not be facing so many dangers.
He should have had a happy and unforgettable childhood.
"I didn''t take good care of you and our son," Jing Yichen said in a low voice.
Shangguan ning smiled and drew circles on his chest with her fingers. She said softly,"But I feel very happy being with you. I feel like I''m the happiest woman in the world. I have a
good husband and a cute and obedient son. You''ve taken good care of us. Some external factors are not something you can control. You''re not a God. "
Jing Yichen''s greatest wish was to make Shangguan ning happy. Now that she was so happy, he felt much better.
"There are always all kinds of storms in life. We''ll only cherish our current life more when someonees to make trouble. I didn''t think that I wanted to be with you all the time, but now I don''t want to be separated from you for even a second."
Jing Yichen smiled and lowered his head to kiss her. He said in a gentle voice,"Okay, we won''t be apart for even a second. We''ll always be together."

Chapter 683: Poisoned (1)
After Jing Yichen left, Zheng Jing dragged Mu Qing to the Zheng family.
Zheng Lun was still coughing. He had thought that she had caught a cold, but it turned out that she had been drugged by yang Muyan. He was very anxious. How could he let go of Mu Qing, his good friend who was a doctor?
It was already threeo'' clock in the morning when they arrived at the Zheng family.
As soon as he entered, he could faintly hear a woman''s suppressed cough.
Zheng Jing''s heart ached and he took Mu Qing to the second floor.
Of course, he didn''t let Mu Qing in. Instead, he walked in first.
If Mu Qing saw Zheng Lun''s disheveled clothes, she would be in big trouble.
Zheng Jing guarded Mu Qing as if he was guarding against a Wolf. He was speechless when he saw Mu Qing.
He already had Zhao Anan, and even if he didn''t have a woman he liked, he wouldn''t covet his best friend''s woman. Was his character that bad? He was even willing to hand Zhao Anan over to Zheng Jing, but Zheng Jing didn''t trust him.
He was a doctor, alright? In his eyes, there was no difference between women. They were all just a ball of meat! No matter how beautiful Zheng Lun was, he would not have any thoughts about her.
Mu Qing couldn''t help but roll his eyes when he was locked outside the door.
Well, even if Zheng Lun wasn''t asleep and was dressed up, it wouldn''t be appropriate for him to go in like this.
Let''s just wait and see. Let Zheng Jing say a few words to the little beauty.
Zheng Lun had been coughing for a day and a night and couldn''t fall asleep. She was startled when she saw Zheng Jing walking in.
Then, her fair face quickly turned red and her coughs became more rapid.
What was Zheng Jing doing in her bedroom at this hour? They had not done anything inappropriate at home and Zheng Jing rarely came to her bedroom. But now that he hade in sote, Zheng Lun couldn''t help but think that something was wrong.
"Big brother ... Cough cough cough ..."
Zheng Lun coughed again after she said two words.
She didn''t know why, but at night, she coughed even more violently than during the day. The cold medicine and cough syrup she had taken didn''t work at all.
Zheng Jing''s heart ached. He sat down by Zheng Lun''s bed, patted her back and said in a low voice,"Lun, I have asked Mu Qing toe and check on you. If you keep coughing, your throat will be damaged."
"What? Doctor ... Doctor mu?"
Zheng Lun opened her eyes wide in disbelief. She raised her wrist and looked at the time on her watch. It was 3:25 am.
Why did her brother ask Mu Qing toe at this time?
"Yes, it''s him. I''ll let him in now. You ..."
Zheng Jing took a look at Zheng Lun''s pajamas. Luckily, only her arms were exposed and the neckline was well-kept, not revealing any part of her body.
He pulled the nket up to cover Zheng Lun''s legs and then turned around to leave.
Zheng Lun was so touched that her eyes were filled with tears.
Her brother had brought doctor Mu Qing home in the middle of the night just to cure her cough!
She had already said today that it was just a small illness a
nd that it would be fine in two days, but her brother actually took it to heart.
When Mu Qing came in, he saw that Zheng Lun''s eyes were red and she looked like she was about to cry.
He was somewhat baffled.
Was Zheng Lun in too much pain?
As a doctor, he smiled and said,""It''s okay, Lun. Don''t be afraid. It''s just a cough. Give me your hand and I will check your pulse. "
Zheng Lun gave her hand to Mu Qing while coughing.
Mu Qing tested it on both of her wrists and then checked her tongue and throat. He frowned.
"Lun, how many days has your throat been ufortable?"
Zheng Lun took a look at Zheng Jing and said,"Two days,"
Mu Qing looked at her seriously and said,"Tell me the truth. If you don''t tell me the truth, I won''t be able to determine the extent of your illness, and I won''t be able to treat it urately. Don''t tell me that you want to cough like this for the rest of your life, until your throat ispletely damaged?"
Zheng Lun was startled by his serious look. She had never seen Mu Qing so serious before.
Was it that serious? It seemed like she only had a small cough and her throat was infected. She should be fine after taking some anti-inmmatory medicine, right?
She hesitated for a moment before telling the truth,""I''ve only been coughing for two days, but my throat started to feel ufortable about a week ago. "
Zheng Lun was an innocent girl. She didn''t think that Mu Qing had the reason to lie to her, so she thought that her illness might not be as light as she had thought.
She still chose to believe in Mu Qing''s judgment.
"Were there any symptoms at the beginning?"
"Sometimes it''s very itchy, sometimes it''s very dry. Every time I eat, it hurts a little, but it''s not serious. I didn''t take it to heart. I thought I identally caught a cold, but it didn''t work even after taking cold medicine."
Hearing Mu Qing''s serious expression, Zheng Jing couldn''t help but worry."How is it, is it serious? Can it be cured?"
Mu Qing red at him."I am asking you a question. Don''t say anything!"
Zheng Jing shut up immediately.
He believed in his good friend''s medical skills. Even if it was serious, Mu Qing would be able to cure Zheng Lun.
"Lun, do you have any symptoms of coughing blood tonight?"
Zheng Lun took another look at Zheng Jing and bit her lip as she nodded."There is."
Zheng Jing got anxious,"yes?!" But when I asked you how it was tonight, you said it was better! Lun, how can you lie to me about such a big thing? What if your condition gets worse?"
Zheng Lun felt a little guilty and did not dare to look at Zheng Jing. She coughed and said in a low voice,"Brother, I was afraid that you would be worried, so I ... Lied. I thought that I would be fine in two days ..."
"You must tell me the next time you feel unwell. Your cough this time is not a small problem at all. Someone ..."
Zheng Jing suddenly stopped.
"Forget it, I''ll tell you in detailter. In short, no matter where you feel ufortable in the future, you must tell me. You''re not allowed to fight it by yourself, do you hear me?"
> "Okay, I will tell brother about itter." Zheng Lun nodded obediently.
Mu Qing couldn''t be more envious of the scene.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Jing had taught Zheng Lun well and she was so obedient.
Unlike Zhao Anan, who did not listen to him at all.
He had said the same thing to Zhao Anan, but Zhao Anan had never agreed.
Sigh, if Zhao Anan could listen to him like Zheng Lun, he wouldn''t have to work so hard.
But if Zhao Anan had been obedient, she would not be Zhao Anan.
He liked Zhao Anan''s lively and rebellious side.
Chapter 684: Poisoned (2)
Chapter 684: Poisoned (2)
"It''s okay. Although Lun''s illness is a bit serious, it is not difficult to treat her because we discovered her early. But it may take a longer time, about a month, to fully recover. During this time, try to talk less, avoid spicy food, and protect your throat. "
"Okay, doctor mu, I will remember that." Zheng Lun nodded.
Mu Qing stood up with a smile."I will prescribe you some cough medicine. You can take it when your brother brings it back tomorrow. Your cough will not bepletely cured, but it will not be as bad as it is now."
Zheng Jing didn''t want to wait for even a minute."No need, I''ll go back to the hospital with you to get it now. Let''s go."
Mu Qing rolled his eyes at him and walked out of Zheng Lun''s room without saying anything.
Zheng Lun looked at Zheng Jing and was about to tell him not to get the medicine in such a hurry, when Zheng Jing seemed to know what she was going to say. He held her hand and said in a low voice, "Don''t say anything. I''ll be back soon. Wait for me. "
Zheng Lun''s heart skipped a beat and she nodded slightly."Alright," he said.
Zheng Jing drove Mu Qing to the hospital.
Mu Qing''s heart almost jumped out of his chest at the speed of his car. "Hey, hey, hey, just because you''re a Criminal Police officer, you think you can just run through a red light? You can speed just because you''re driving a police car? Drive slower, you''re going to kill me! She''s been coughing for such a long time, it doesn''t matter if she coughed for a while more!"
Zheng Jing said unhappily,"if Zhao Anan was coughing at home and couldn''t sleep, you would have driven faster than me." Shut up and don''t dy my driving!"
Well, Mu Qing was rendered speechless by thisparison.
Zheng Jing had a deep affection for Zheng Lun. He doted on her more than he doted on Zhao Anan.
At least when Zhao Anan went out to y or got into a fight, he would not take it to heart. He was not like Zheng Jing, who was afraid that his sister would be looked at or touched by other men and would take care of her.
He thought for a while and said,"Zheng Lun''s cough is caused by a mixture of several drugs. These drugs smell like flowers. They are usually inhaled into the body in the form of mist and then cause chronic poisoning in the lungs and throat." But she''s the only one in your family who got sick, so it''s definitely not in the form of mist. Go back and check if there''s anything wrong with her food and drink. Tomorrow, bring all the suspicious things she has eaten to the hospital. I''ll do a detailed analysis for you. "
Zheng Jing''s face darkened at the mention of the poison.
It was their mother, PEI Xinhua, who was in charge of cooking for Zheng Lun. She loved Zheng Lun so much that she always cooked her favorite dishes.
She would definitely not poison Zheng Lun.
However, in addition to PEI Xinhua, there were two servants at home. Could it be that the problem was with them?
It didn''t matter, he would definitely find out.
He was a Criminal Police officer and was very familiar with all criminal cases. Finding suspects and murderers was what he was best at.
Someone had tried to poison his sister right under his nose. This had seriously challenged Zheng Jing''s bottom line. &
nbsp;
He suppressed the anger in his heart and rushed to the hospital as fast as he could. He took the medicine that Mu Qing had prepared and went home as fast as he could.
The Zheng family was a little far from family MU''s Hospital. Even if there was no traffic jam, it would take more than 40 minutes to drive there.
But today, it had only taken Zheng Jing forty minutes to make a round trip. He had almost reached his maximum speed. If his car had not been modified, he would not have been able to reach such a speed.
So when he came back, Zheng Lun was startled.
"Big brother, cough cough ... Why are you back so soon?"
Zheng Lun was still coughing in pain. She was holding a piece of tissue tightly in her hand.
Zheng Jing opened her hand and saw that the tissue was covered in blood.
His heart ached. He hugged Zheng Lun and said in a hoarse voice,"Silly girl, why didn''t you tell me that you were coughing so badly?"
What answered him was Zheng Lun''s heart-wrenching coughs.
He let go of her and went out to get a ss of warm water. Then he gave the medicine and water to Zheng Lun."Take the medicine. Mu Qing is good at nothing but curing diseases. You will be better after taking the medicine."
Zheng Lun took the medicine and drank the water.
She handed the empty cup to Zheng Jing. Zheng Jing put it down on the small desk beside her bed and then sat down beside her.
The medicine couldn''t take effect so quickly. Zheng Lun was still coughing and she would cough out blood from time to time.
Zheng Jing wiped her lips gently with a tissue. His hatred for yang Muyan had reached an unprecedented level.
One day, he would definitely kill yang Muyan!
Zheng Lun was so kind and innocent. She was as beautiful as a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world, but now she had to suffer such torture.
Zheng Jing''s heart ached so much that it almost bled. He would rather he was the one who was poisoned.
He couldn''t care less about his promise to keep a distance from Zheng Lun. He held her cold hands and said softly,"Lun, your cough is not an illness but poison."
Zheng Lun was so shocked that she even forgot to cough.
"Poisoned? How could that be?"
She knew very few people, and she had never harmed anyone before. She had never even argued with anyone before, so how could someone poison her?
Zheng Jing told her what had happened to yang Muyan in a low voice and then said,"You must be careful in the future and pay attention to your safety. I will also find someone to protect you in secret. Don''t trust anyone but me. Mom and dad don''t know about this, and yang Muyan won''t do anything to them for now, so don''t tell them yet, in case they get worried. "
It took Zheng Lun quite a while to digest what Zheng Jing had said.
It turned out that she had not offended anyone, but was being used to threaten Zheng Jing.
Her face was slightly pale, but she nodded firmly.""Brother, don''t worry. I won''t tell mom and dad. I''ll protect myself. You have to be careful too."
She had been to many murder scenes with Zheng Jing and she was able to handle i
t. When she heard that yang Muyan wanted to kill her, she was scared but not flustered.
Her brother dealt with the most vicious criminals every day. He would get hurt from time to time, and sometimes he would be retaliated against. She knew that.
She just didn''t want to be her brother''s weakness. Someone was using her to threaten her brother, which made her sad and angry.
Zheng Lun knew who yang Muyan was.
Yang Muyan''s name was well-known in A city. Even though Zheng Lun didn''t go out much, she knew about her.
She just never thought that she would be rted to yang Muyan one day.
Chapter 685: Your heartbeat and my love
Chapter 685: Your heartbeat and my love
Zheng Jing didn''t want to tell Zheng Lun about this at first. He just wanted to protect her and let her live a carefree life. She only needed to y the piano and draw every day. She shouldn''t have to face those dangerous people and things.
But what Jing Yichen said made sense. She had the right to know and she would be more careful after knowing that someone was trying to harm her, which was very important.
With Zheng Lun''s naivety, she could be easily deceived.
If he told her about it, she would be on her guard and the possibility of a problem would be reduced.
Fortunately, his sister was much stronger than he had imagined. She was no longer the timid little girl.
Zheng Jing felt both relieved and sorry for her.
In the end, Zheng Lun had suffered because of him. He med himself, but he was determined to protect her well in the future and make her happy every day.
He took Zheng Lun into his arms and patted her back gently, trying to ease her violent coughing.
Zheng Lun hadn''t been held by him for a long time. Hearing his strong heartbeat, feeling his hot body temperature and feeling his care and love from the bottom of his heart, she felt that it was worth it even if she was poisoned!
If being poisoned could make her brother so close to her and make them embrace each other, she would be willing to do so!
She should have advised her brother to quickly go and rest. He definitely did not sleep tonight and had been busy until now.
However, she could not bear to let him go. She could not bear to part with his warm embrace.
Zheng Jing also couldn''t bear to leave. Zheng Lun was so soft in his arms that he couldn''t help but hold her even tighter, as if he was going to melt her into his body.
The identity of the siblings was an obstacle to them, but it was also the most important link between them. This was something that could not be cut off.
Zheng Jing felt very satisfied to be able to hold Zheng Lun in his arms.
If yang Muyan hadn''t told him about Zheng Lun''s cough today, it might have taken him longer to find out about Zheng Lun''s abnormal condition. If she went to Mu Qing for treatment after her throat was damaged, she would probably be dead.
Her voice was so pleasant and gentle. He couldn''t get enough of it. How could he make her lose her voice?
Zheng Lun''s throat had be hoarse after coughing for the whole night. He was very distressed.
Luckily, the medicine had started to take effect and Zheng Lun coughed less frequently.
"It''s almost daybreak. You should sleep for a while. Call me if there''s anything. I''ll stay at home to apany you for the next few days."
Zheng Jing rubbed Zheng Lun''s soft long hair and said softly.
Zheng Lun let go of his hand reluctantly and promised him gently,"Okay, brother, you should go to sleep too."
Even though she said that, Zheng Jing could not move away from her because of the reluctance and love in her eyes.
He suddenly pulled Zheng Lun into his arms and asked in a very low voice,"Qi Qi, you can''t bear to leave me?"
Zheng Lun''s pretense that she had been trying so hard to put up was shattered. She fell into Zheng Jing''s arms and murmured,"Big brother ..." &nb
sp;
Her voice was gentle and sweet, just like her, like a pink peach, with an irresistible temptation.
Zheng Jing lowered his head and kissed her gently.
Zheng Lun''s fair face was blushed, which made Zheng Jing kiss her deeper.
Unfortunately, Zheng Lun started to cough after a short kiss.
.
Zheng Lun was so embarrassed and angry that her sweet kiss was interrupted.
How could he do this!
It was too embarrassing!
Zheng Jing came back to himself andughed."Qiqi, we''ll continue when you''re better, okay?"
"Really, brother?" Zheng Lun raised her head in surprise.
"Silly girl, do you like me kissing you that much?"
If this was the case, it would be a little ...| It meant love.
Zheng Jing was a very calm and upright person. He was the kind of person who was serious in front of others.
He was not cold, but he was not good at joking, which was different from Mu Qing''s cheerful personality.
He was only very gentle and considerate when he was with Zheng Lun. He would consider all the details for her.
However, he had never said anything flirtatious to Zheng Lun, because of his personality and Zheng Lun''s special status. She was not only the woman he loved deeply but also his sister.
This made it difficult for him to say such embarrassing words.
But today, Zheng Lun was so cute that he said it without thinking. Then Zheng Lun blushed again.
Zheng Lun lowered her head and said nothing, but Zheng Jing knew that she was really longing for his kiss.
And wasn''t he the same?
His desire was a hundred times stronger than hers!
If he didn''t have a strong self-control, they would have done more than just kissing.
He didn''t dare to kiss Zheng Lun, because he was afraid that he would want more if he did.
Even their kisses were intoxicating, extravagant, and unforgettable.
It was almost dawn and Zheng Jing didn''t dare to stay in his sister''s room any longer. If his mother found out about this, she would be very upset.
PEI Xinhua had been trying to match Zheng Lun with a man who had been on a blind date with Zheng Lun some time ago. If she knew that they were so close and had done things beyond their status as siblings, she would be even more anxious to get Zheng Lun married.
Zheng Lun had met the man three times this month, which was a rare asion.
Zheng Lun had always been against going on blind dates. She didn''t like to have dinner with a strange man and couldn''t ept the man touching her when she went on blind dates.
This time, Zheng Lun met with the man three times. Although PEI Xinhua and the man''s mother were with her every time, it was still rare.
It wasn''t that Zheng Lun had fallen for that man, but that the man had known Zheng Lun for a long time.
The man''s name was Gu qianyue. Both of his parents were university professors, and he was also a teacher at University of X. The Gu family was a well-known family of schrs.
Gu qianyue and Zheng Lun went to the same school, high school, and college. They were in the same ss. Gu qi
anyue''s personality was a bit like Zheng Lun ''s. They didn''t like to talk much. Even when they talked, they were quiet, like little girls.
Zheng Lun had been very introverted when she was in school and had few friends. It was hard for her to talk to strangers. Gu qianyue had been in the same ss as her for many times, so they were close. They became each other''s best friends.
Gu qianyue was Zheng Lun''s only friend when she was a student. Although they weren''t close, they were much closer than other people.
When the two of them met during the blind date, there would naturally be less strangeness, and they would be able to talk about the same topic.
Chapter 686 mother and daughter
Chapter 686 mother and daughter
PEI Xinhua had high expectations of Gu qianyue, but she was not satisfied with him after seeing him.
Because he was too feminine and not manly. Although he looked gentle and delicate, he was so thin that he could not protect Zheng Lun.
But seeing that Zheng Lun was barely able to talk to him, PEI Xinhua stopped talking about him.
There were very few men who could make Zheng Lun open her mouth. She was very repulsed by strangers, which had a lot to do with her childhood experience. It was hard to change, and PEI Xinhua didn''t force her daughter to change.
She was already very happy that Zheng Lun could talk to Gu qianyue.
However, as they got to know each other more and more, PEI Xinhua felt that Gu qianyue had no other problems except that he was a little feminine.
He came from a good family, had a good job, was gentle, didn''t smoke or drink. Like Zheng Lun, he liked to take care of flowers and nts and raise small animals. He was responsible, filial and meticulous. He took good care of Zheng Lun and even gave her a few unique small gifts.
Zheng Lun also gave Gu qianyue a few gifts. She didn''t feel so repulsed when she saw Gu qianyue now.
Of course, it was definitely not love.
PEI Xinhua got up and went to Zheng Lun''s room at 5 am.
Zheng Lun was coughing badly and she had been worried about her. She got up early in the morning to check if her cough had gotten better.
Seeing that Zheng Lun had fallen asleep, she was relieved and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
At around Seveno'' clock, PEI Xinhua went upstairs to call her husband, Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun for dinner.
Zheng Jing got up soon, but Zheng Lun was still in a daze. She had taken the medicine that Mu Qing had made for her. He knew that people who coughed could not sleep well, so he had added more. But Zheng Jing had left in a hurry with the medicinest night and he had not had time to exin.
PEI Xinhua had wanted her son to wake her daughter up, but she felt that it was inappropriate. So she took off her apron and went to Zheng Lun''s room.
She patted Zheng Lun''s back and called her."Lun, get up and eat. If you want to sleep, you can go to bed after eating. You didn''t eat much yesterday, so you have to eat more today. Be good and get up. "
She sounded like she was coaxing a child. Zheng Lun opened her eyes in a daze, snuggled into her arms and said,"mom."
PEI Xinhua''s heart softened. She liked it when her daughter relied on her. It made her feel that Zheng Lun was very close to her and that her own daughter was nothing more than that.
"Lun, did you not sleep wellst night?"
Zheng Lun didn''t have the habit ofzing in bed. She couldn''t get up today, which meant that she didn''t sleep wellst night because of her coughing.
Zheng Lun nodded and said in a sweet voice,"Yes, Mom. I kept coughing and drank a lot of water. I didn''t fall asleep until dawn."
PEI Xinhua''s heart ached a little. She helped her daughterb her messy hair and asked with concern,""Are you feeling better now? Does your throat hurt? Do you have a headache?"
Zheng Lun''s eyes were a little misty
. She took a while to calm down and then said with a smile,"My throat still hurts, but I don''t have a headache. My cough seems to have eased a lot."
"That''s good, that''s good. Go wash your face and have some breakfast. You cane back to catch up on some sleepter. Qianyue and his mother heard that you were sick yesterday and wanted toe and see you today. Let''s forget about it for now. We''ll get them toe tomorrow!"
Hearing that Gu qianyue and her son wereing, Zheng Lun''s sleepiness disappeared. "They''reing? Forget it, I''m fine. "
She didn''t like to hang out with people she didn''t know. Although Gu qianyue was her ssmate and half a friend, they hadn''t seen each other for years, and the familiarity they had before had long disappeared.
It was a little strange and awkward to talk to each other now.
If it wasn''t for PEI Xinhua who kept begging her to meet her, Zheng Lun would never have gone.
Fortunately, Gu qianyue''s personality was like a girl ''s. He didn''t look at her ufortably like other men did, and he wouldn''t hold her hand or do anything intimate to her.
They maintained a certain distance from each other, and no one crossed the line.
"She wants to visit you and be a guest. I can''t drive her out, can I? Not only would that be impolite, but he would also offend the other party. I''ve known qianyue''s mother for a long time and we''re old friends. If she wants toe, I can only say that I wee her and nothing else. "
PEI Xinhua patiently persuaded her daughter. She finally had a friend of the opposite sex who was willing to talk to her. She had to keep it up.
"It''s nothing. They''re just here to visit. I''ll make them stay for lunch. If you want to talk to qianyue, then talk to her. If you don''t want to, just listen to us."
Zheng Lun knew that she couldn''t refuse PEI Xinhua''s offer.
Forget it. If he came, then so be it. It was just a few words. It was not particrly uneptable to her.
They were more familiar with each other now. Gu qianyue was much better than those strange and rough men that PEI Xinhua had found for her.
After rejecting Gu qianyue, PEI Xinhua would still introduce her to other men and ask her to go on blind dates.
He might as well deal with Gu qianyue.
"Alright, I''ll listen to mom and let theme. But let theme in a few days when I''m better. Otherwise, I''ll keep coughing and it''ll be impolite."
PEI Xinhua was very happy to hear her daughter agree.
"Alright, alright, alright, they''lle when you say so! Quickly get up and wash up. We''ll go down for dinnerter!"
Zheng Lun nodded with a smile. Then she got out of bed, washed up, changed her clothes and went downstairs to the living room.
Zheng Jing looked at her without saying anything.
Father Zheng, Zheng qinan, was sitting at the table. Hearing Zheng Lun still coughing, he said worriedly,"Why is Lun still coughing? Jing, why don''t you take your sister to the hospital? I feel that her cough is a little strange. It doesn''t look like she has a cold!"
Zheng Jing was slightly shocked. The older the ginger, the wiser it would be. His f
ather had already noticed that Zheng Lun''s cough was abnormal.
He didn''t notice it yesterday and thought it was just a normal cough.
He couldn''t help but feel a little embarrassed. He was stillcking in experience. He had to learn more from his father. His father had sharp intuition. He didn''t know if Zheng Lun''s poisoning could be hidden from him.
Zheng Lun felt warm inside as her father cared for her.
When she heard that he was going to send her to the hospital, she felt a little guilty and quickly said,""No, no, I ... Cough cough ..."
She coughed even harder when she was anxious.
Chapter 687
Chapter 687
Zheng Jing was afraid that Zheng Lun would refuse, so he said immediately, "Dad''s right, I can see that my sister''s cough hasn''t eased at all, and the medicine doesn''t work. I''ll take her to the hospital today! I heard that her voice is hoarse, how can she continue like this!"
PEI Xinhua had thought that Zheng Lun''s cough was just a minor problem, but now she was worried after hearing her husband and son''s words."Lun didn''t sleep wellst night. She coughed badly and I could tell that she was hoarse."
But she didn''t ask Zheng Lun to go to the hospital.
Zheng Lun didn''t like to go to crowded public ces like the hospital, so she was worried that her daughter might not want to go.
Zheng Jing knew what PEI Xinhua was worried about. He said with a smile,"Mom, it''s okay. Sister won''t be scared if I stay with her. I will take her to family MU''s Hospital and ask Mu Qing to treat Lun. We are all acquaintances. She will be fine."
PEI Xinhua hesitated for a while and finally nodded.""Go on, Lun. Don''t be afraid. It''s better to go to the hospital."
Zheng Lun didn''t even dare to look into PEI Xinhua''s eyes. She lowered her head and said,"Okay, mom, I''ll go and take a look."
Mu Qing had already seen her and prescribed her medicine, but she still had to go to the hospital again. Zheng Jing had said it so confidently. Zheng Lun''s heart was beating fast.
She could go out alone with her brother again?
Zheng Lun was so happy that she felt that she had made a fortune this time. She wished she could be poisoned a few more times!
After breakfast, Zheng Lun took the medicine that Mu Qing had given her while she went back to her room to change. Then she changed and followed Zheng Jing to the hospital.
Things changed quickly. Zheng Jing had nned to check everything suspicious in the house this morning, but it was too rare toe out alone with Zheng Lun, so he had to postpone his original n.
The car had not driven far when Zheng Jing held Zheng Lun''s hand.
Zheng Lun blushed but didn''t pull back her hand. Instead, she held his hand tightly.
She always felt that she and her brother were like thieves.| Love was the same. Every time they did that kind of intimate action, they would feel a deep sense of guilt, but they would be unable to extricate themselves.
Zheng Jing felt even more guilty than she did, but he was also more intoxicated by the intimacy with Zheng Lun.
He had always felt that he was the one to me for their rtionship turning out this way.
Not only did he fail to teach Zheng Lun well, but he also failed to control himself.
In fact, he had had special feelings for Zheng Lun for a long time, but he didn''t dare to admit it.
Now that he had admitted it, he could not control himself even more. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have taken Zheng Lun out alone without his parents "knowledge.
With Zheng Lun in the car, Zheng Jing drove slowly. After such a long time, he decided to ask about his sister''s daily life. He spent most of the day at the police station and had no idea what Zheng Lun had eaten.
But no matter how she asked, Zheng Lun couldn''t tell what was wrong. &
nbsp;
"Brother, I didn''t eat anything special. I eat the same food as you all. If there was poison in it, why would I be the only one poisoned?"
This was also what Zheng Jing was confused about. Zheng Lun almost never left the house and ate the food at home. But he had eaten all the food at home, including his parents. Zheng Lun should not be the only one who was poisoned.
If there was anything different, it might be that Zheng Lun liked fruits, and most of the fruits at home were prepared for her.
Could the problem be with the fruit?
Zheng Jing and his sister had arrived at family MU''s Hospital without them knowing.
When the brother and sister entered Mu Qing''s office, they saw him sitting there yawning, as if he had not woken up yet.
"Brother, can you not torment me like this? Last night, at midnight,| Forget about the door service, I can tolerate it if you insist oning to the hospital to get medicine, but you don''t even let me off in the morning, this is too cruel! I''ve only slept for three hours and you woke me up. I''m so sleepy!"
Zheng Lun felt guilty, but Zheng Jing didn ''T. He patted Mu Qing''s shoulder and said, "Don''t be so long-winded, I only slept for two hours! Just prescribe themon ones for cold and cough, not the ones from yesterday. "
The medicine that Mu Qing had prescribed to Zheng Lun yesterday was for detoxification and to protect her throat. PEI Xinhua couldn''t see the medicine, or she would be very worried and nervous.
Mu Qing went to prepare the medicine for him.
When they got the medicine, Zheng Jing asked Mu Qing to check Zheng Lun''s body again. After making sure that the poison in her body was getting better, he left with her.
As soon as they got out of the hospital, Zheng Jing could feel that someone was following them.
These people had been following them from the moment they left the house until they reached the hospital.
Zheng Jing sneered. Yang Muyan was really willing to spend so much money. Those who were following him were all Masters. If it were not for his anti-tracking ability, he would not have been able to find them.
He took Zheng Lun into his arms subconsciously and walked forward with her in his arms.
Zheng Lun was startled by his sudden intimacy. She looked at Zheng Jing in a panic."Big brother ..."
It was easy to meet acquaintances in the hospital. If someone saw them in an intimate position like a couple, they would definitely beughed at.
"It''s okay, don''t be afraid. No one knows us. "
Zheng Jing knew why she was so flustered. She was like a frightened kitten, which made his heart ache.
He couldn''t help but put his arms around her waist and hold her in his arms,forting her in a low voice.
But just as Zheng Jing finished his words, a middle-aged couple came up to them and greeted them warmly,""Jing, Lun, what are you doing here?"
What he was afraid of came. He had just said that no one knew them, and in the blink of an eye, he had met an acquaintance.
Zheng Jing let go of Zheng Lun subconsciously and shielded her behind him. Then he looked up and said as if nothing had happene
d,"Uncle, aunty, I''m here with Lun. She has been coughing for several days."
They were PEI xinze, PEI Xinhua''s younger brother, and Wan ya, as well as Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun''s uncle and aunt.
PEI xinze had seen the intimate actions of the siblings just now. He sighed in his heart and frowned slightly."Jing, you and Lun are all grown up now. You can''t be as reckless as you were when you were little! Lun is a big girl now. It''s good for you to dote on your sister, but you can''t go too far. Do you understand what I mean?"
Hearing what PEI xinze said, Zheng Lun''s face turned pale. She was on the verge of copse and almost lost the strength to stand.
Chapter 688: An untouchable love
Chapter 688: An untouchable love
Seeing Zheng Lun''s pale face, Zheng Jing didn''t look good either.
He had wanted to hold Zheng Lun''s hand tofort her, but he was afraid that it would make his uncle even more unhappy, so he had to hold back.
However, he was much stronger mentally and more thick-skinned, so he quickly smiled and said,""Uncle, you are still so long-winded. It is normal for me to love Lun. Which part was too much? Don''t you think so, little aunt?"
Wan ya''s eyes shed with surprise, but she was different from PEI xinze. PEI xinze was Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun''s uncle. He could say whatever he wanted to his nephew, but she was his aunt. There was a barrier between them and she could not say anything.
"That''s right, that''s right. You have been close to each other since you were little. As Lun''s brother, you should take care of her when she is sick. "She said with a smile. Your uncle has been sick for the past few days and has been running a fever. He''s been talking nonsense, ignore him!"
The moment she said that, the atmosphere immediately became much better.
Zheng Jing changed the topic immediately and asked with concern,"Uncle, you''re sick? Is it important? I have a friend in the hospital, do you want him to take a look at you?"
PEI xinze still doted on this nephew of his very much. When he heard that he was concerned about his health, he smiled and said,""It''s okay, I''m fine. I just caught a cold. Your Auntie insisted oning to the hospital. But what''s wrong with Lun? did she catch a cold?"
Zheng Jing didn''t even blink when he was lying."Exactly. I''ve been down with the cold for a few days. Maybe the weather has been changing recently, so more people have caught the cold."
Zheng Lun raised her head with difficulty and said in a low voice,"Uncle, I''m fine. Cough cough ... I''m almost done."
PEI xinze knew Zheng Lun''s character very well. Her timid look made people feel sorry for her. He regretted that he had been too harsh just now.
However, he wasn''t blind. The way the brother and sister hugged each other just now was too eye-catching! Anyone with eyes could tell that the rtionship between the two of them was not that of siblings.
Of course, he knew that Zheng Lun was not the original Zheng Lun. She was an orphan adopted by the Zheng family. But she had taken over Zheng Lun''s name and identity and received the most selfless maternal love from PEI Xinhua. Everyone in the Zheng family also regarded her as Zheng qinan''s biological daughter. Except for blood rtions, she was essentially the daughter of the Zheng family, Zheng Jing''s sister and his niece!
If the two of them ... What would this be! Wouldn''t the PEI family be criticized behind their backs in the future!
In fact, this was not the first time PEI xinze had discovered the problems between the two siblings. In the past, he would alwaysfort himself by saying that they were just siblings and that they were only close and nothing else.
But now, he couldn''t even lie to himself.
Zheng Lun was a shy and introverted girl, so he could only scold Zheng Jing.
After a few words, PEI xinze was also coughing and Zheng Jing asked him to go to the hospital.
Before he left, PEI xinze patted his shoulder and whispered,""Jing, your s
ister is insensible. You have to be more sensible. Don''t let othersugh at her."
Zheng Jing stood there stiffly for a long time before he recovered.
He looked at his sister''s pale face and her helpless eyes, and his heart ached.
Now they would be criticized and despised by others even if they hugged each other. He didn''t want that to happen. He didn''t want Zheng Lun to suffer.
Many people who knew them didn''t know that Zheng Lun wasn''t a child of the Zheng family. After all, she looked so much like the original Zheng Lun. And her name was Zheng Lun, which was next to Zheng Jing''s name. They must be brother and sister.
If they behaved inappropriately, there would be a lot of suspicions. Maybe no one would me Zheng Jing, but Zheng Lun would be med.
Under such circumstances, the woman would be the one to bear the me. Furthermore, the Zheng family had raised her, but she had ignored the consequences.| Li, after falling in love with her own brother, a "ungrateful and shameless" title was inevitable.
Zheng Jing didn''t want others to misunderstand Zheng Lun. She was an innocent and kind girl. If she fell in love with him, she must have suffered a lot.
He knew that what PEI xinze said just now was for their own good, but he was worried that Zheng Lun would not be able to take it. So as soon as PEI xinze and Wan ya left, he immediately hugged Zheng Lun.
Zheng Lun was afraid of being seen again, so she called him anxiously,"Brother, let go!"
"Qiqi, I am sorry. I did not protect you well." Zheng Jing sounded a little sad.
Lying in his arms, Zheng Lun coughed violently and said in a low voice after she finally stopped coughing,"I don''t me you, brother. I was too greedy. I''m still not satisfied with my parents and you. I can''t control my heart. I''ll be very sad when I see you with another woman. I always want to be with you and always want you to treat me well. It''s my fault, it has nothing to do with brother. "
She had taken all the me.
Zheng Jing''s heart ached when he heard this.
"Little fool, feelings are a matter between two people. You''re the only one who likes me, would we do this? I''ve said it before, I like you too. You''re not in the wrong, and I''m not in the wrong either. It''s just that we''re brother and sister, so others might find this uneptable. You don''t have to think about anything, you don''t have to care about anything. Whatever someone says, I will naturally step in. Don''t be afraid. "
Zheng Jing''s voice had a calming power, which made Zheng Lun feel much better.
In fact, she had always known that it was impossible for her to be with her brother. She also knew how others would look at her once their rtionship was exposed.
She had thought that she could withstand other people''s criticism and disdain, but now she realized that as long as other people said a few words, she would feel terrible.
Furthermore, PEI xinze did not have any ill intentions. He was afraid that others would see that something was wrong with the two of them and that they would do something they should not.
Zheng Lun didn''t stay sad for long. She was introverted, but she was not a stubborn person. She had a good temper and seldom got angry. Now
that she was in Zheng Jing''s arms, she felt that it didn''t matter what she had been through or what she had done.
She didn''t ask for anything else but to be by her brother''s side.
In the future, she just had to be more careful when she was out with her brother. This way, no one would find out their secret. She would always be his sister and he would always be her brother.
Zheng Lun got out of Zheng Jing''s arms and said in a low voice,"Brother, let''s get in the car. There are so many people outside."
Zheng Jing knew that she was afraid of meeting someone she knew, so he nodded and said,"Alright, let''s get in the car."
Chapter 689: Indulgence (1)
Chapter 689: Indulgence (1)
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun got into the car first. He stood outside and looked at the people who were following them. He got into the car after he had memorized the number of people.
Zheng Lun was still in low spirits and Zheng Jing didn''t want her to feel bad. He said in a rxed tone,"Lun, do you want something more exciting?"
"What?" Zheng Lun didn''t understand what he meant. She looked up at him with her big misty eyes.
Zheng Jing fastened the seat belt for her and then kissed her on the cheek. He whispered in her ear,"Sit tight, I''ll let you experience speed and passion."
Zheng Lun''s face blushed immediately. She felt that her brother''s kiss on her cheek was very hot. It made her heart beat faster and her breath faster.
Speed and passion ... What was her brother trying to do?
Zheng Lun''s attention was attracted by him and she couldn''t help but have some other thoughts.
Before she could react, the car shot out like an arrow from a bow.
"Ah!" She screamed and closed her eyes.
Her hand was wrapped in a warm big hand, and a familiar and calm voice came to her ear.""Lun, don''t be afraid. I''m here. Open your eyes. Let''s get rid of those people together."
So, they were being followed?
Yang Muyan again?
This woman was too evil. She had actually asked someone to follow them to the hospital.
Would her brother be in danger?
Zheng Lun opened her eyes slowly. The scenery in her vision was moving past her at a high speed. She had never been in a car that was moving so fast!
Zheng Jing had never driven too fast when she was in the car. This was the first time she had ever driven so fast.
Beside her was her most beloved brother. He held her hand and passed warmth and strength to her, and her heart suddenly calmed down.
Even if she had to die, she would be satisfied as long as she could be with her brother.
She held Zheng Jing''s hand and said in a firm voice,"Brother, I''m fine. You don''t have to worry about me. Just focus on driving."
Zheng Lun had calmed down so quickly, which was out of Zheng Jing''s expectation.
There was no fear on her pretty face. There was only determination and courage in her clear eyes. Zheng Lun looked even more beautiful and energetic than usual.
Zheng Jing suddenlyughed out loud,"Qiqi, I like you very much!" We''re here to race today and shake off those idiots! I''ll let you see how good my driving skills are!"
It was the first time that Zheng Lun had ever been confessed to by him so loudly and unscrupulously. Her heart was beating so fast that she could barely control it. The sweet and happy feeling overwhelmed her and dissolved all her fears and uneasiness.
She smiled sweetly at Zheng Jing."Sure. It all depends on your performance. If you do well, you will be rewarded."
Zheng Lun''s rare liveliness and pride made Zheng Jing very energetic. He drove with the best driving skills he had ever had in his life and sped through the endless traffic, passing one car af
ter another. He ran past the red lights without any care and even drove in the opposite direction for a long time in order to get rid of the people behind him. There were several times when he almost crashed into the oing car, but he managed to avoid it.
Along the way, car owners kept sticking their necks out of the car windows and shouting "crazy" and "don''t want to live. "But Zheng Jing pretended not to hear them and focused on driving.
.
Zheng Lun''s face turned pale at such a thrilling scene that could only be seen in movies. She hadpletely forgotten what PEI xinze had said. She grabbed Zheng Jing''s hands tightly and screamed.
When she finally got rid of the man, Zheng Lun realized that she had bitten her lip because she was too nervous and scared.
Zheng Jing parked the car on the side of the road. This was not the main road and it was a bit quiet. The trees on both sides of the road gave it a deep and quiet feeling.
Before they knew it, they had already reached the suburbs.
Yang Muyan had eyes in many ces in the city, and only suburbs were much safer.
Seeing Zheng Lun''s pale face, Zheng Jing put his arms around her waist and carried her from the passenger seat to hisp.
Zheng Lun eximed in a low voice. She had never expected that Zheng Jing would be so bold.
She was sitting on Zheng Jing''sp with her legs apart and her back against the steering wheel. In front of her was Zheng Jing''s broad and strong chest.
Such a position was so intimate that Zheng Lun couldn''t even raise her head.
Zheng Jing liked it when she was shy. He was most moved by her feminine side.
He pinched Zheng Lun''s delicate chin and forced her to look up at him."Qiqi, I think someone said that they would give me a reward. Where is it?"
Zheng Lun blushed and didn''t say anything. God, how could she have been so bold to say such ambiguous words?
"Why did you bite your own lips?" Zheng Jing stroked her long hair gently and looked at the blood on her red lips. For the first time, he didn''t feel sorry for Zheng Lun, but instead, he had an inexplicable feeling.| Desire.
He tried his best to suppress his eagerness and asked in a low and hoarse voice,""Qi Qi, did I scare you just now? Was he driving too fast? Do you feel ufortable anywhere?"
Zheng Lun finally raised her head and looked at Zheng Jing with her clear eyes, full of love and affection.
She shook her head gently and said,"brother, I''m fine. I don''t feel unwell." I was a little scared at first, but it also seemed very exciting. My ... My heart is beating so, so fast ..."
She had never experienced this kind of extreme indulgence and running. Today was very thrilling, but it also made her mood soar. All the pent-up feelings in her heart were Gone with the Wind.
Zheng Lun said as she took her brother''s hand and put it on her chest to let him feel her heart beating faster than normal.
Was this the reward that Zheng Lun had given him?
Did she know that this would cost him his life?
However, the worst was
yet toe!
He heard Zheng Lun say in a soft voice,"Big brother is so powerful. I said that I would give you a reward, so I will give it. Close your eyes and don''t open them."
Zheng Jing closed his eyes subconsciously.
After waiting for a second, soft and fragrant lips pressed against his.
She gently kissed his eyes, his nose, his cheeks, and his chin. She waited for a long time, but she did not kiss his lips.
Zheng Jing opened his eyes and saw Zheng Lun looking at him slyly with a naughty smile.
The little girl had actually learned how to tease him!
Chapter 690: Indulgence (2)
Chapter 690: Indulgence (2)
Zheng Jing looked down at his sister, who was exuding a charming glow, and his heart was filled with love. He couldn''t control himself anymore. He held her face and kissed her on her red lips.
In the small car, the temperature rose sharply, and the kiss made the two short of breath and their clothes messy.
Zheng Lun had been softened by Zheng Jing''s kisses and caresses. She subconsciously held Zheng Jing''s neck, wanting more.
Zheng Jing was still rational. He let go of Zheng Lun with difficulty, trying to stop the intimate action that he had been so obsessed with.
But Zheng Lun wouldn''t let him go. She changed her timidness and tried to get into his arms.
"Brother, hug me. Don''t let me go. I don''t like it when you''re so far away from me ..."
As she said that, she kissed him without any pattern. Her small hand went under his shirt, and she messed around all over his body, lighting fires everywhere.
Zheng Jing was a hot-blooded man, and the woman in his arms was his beloved. He lost hisst bit of rationality.
"Qiqi, I love you!" He growled.
He started to kiss her crazily, from her cheeks to her lips, from her lips to her corbones, from her corbones to her Jade-white body.
Zheng Lun couldn''t help but let out a low moan. She held Zheng Jing''s head and called him "brother" intermittently.
This electric shock made her feel that her body was no longer hers. She was like a demon, longing for Zheng Jing''s kiss and love.| Caress.
Hisrge hands were slightly rough, and when they touched her body, she felt an electric current.
His lips were soft and hot, and she felt like she was on fire.
"Ah ..."
Zheng Lun screamed and then she was surrounded by a strange feeling. She shivered and fell into Zheng Jing''s arms.
Zheng Jing looked up from her chest in disbelief.
How sensitive was she? how much did she love him? that''s why she could reach such a high level of intimacy when he only kissed her!
Zheng Lun didn''t know what was going on. She only knew that she felt as if she was floating on top of the clouds just now, which was veryfortable and unforgettable.
She was so embarrassed that she leaned into Zheng Jing''s arms."Big brother, I ..."
She didn''t know how to express it, and she was too embarrassed to do so.
Zheng Jing held her in his arms and kissed her cheek. He said softly, "It''s okay, Qiqi. This is a sign that you like me. You don''t have to be shy."
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath for a full five minutes before he could control his urge to have her. He gently helped her put on her clothes and took out a tissue to carefully wipe the sweat on her forehead.
I can''t let this continue, I can ''t.
He was feeling extremely ufortable down there, and he desperately wanted to find a ce to rx.
But Zheng Jing held himself back.
They had already gone too far today. He had crossed the line!
He knew that he would not be able to control himself as he kissed. He knew that he would fall deeper and deeper.
In the past, he would still want to marry his sister of
f, but now, he simply couldn''t do it!
Zheng Lun could only be his!
He couldn''t stand another man touching her, and he couldn''t stand another man doing what he had done today to appreciate her beauty.
.
However, he didn''t want to be so sneaky for the rest of his life. His woman should stand by his side openly, not hide and not dare to meet people.
Zheng Lun was such a wonderful and sensible girl. She should be happy!
Falling in love with him and bing his sister wasn''t her fault. She shouldn''t bear all those rumors and usations!
He wanted to change everything!
Zheng Jing held the soft woman in his arms and sighed."Qiqi, I almost couldn''t control myself. I have to stay away from you in the future, or I don''t know what I''ll do."
Zheng Lun was silent for a while and then said in a gentle voice,"Big brother, I ... I''m willing. You ... Don''t have to hold back ..."
She blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look at Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing''s heart was filled with waves of emotions. He ran his finger across her bright lips and said softly,"Silly ..."
If he wanted her just like that, it would be too unfair to her!
Zheng Jing didn''t want to do that.
He wanted to settle everything properly. He wanted her to follow him in the open. He wanted to give her the title of his wife and kneel down to propose to her. Only after that would he be worthy of her!
He wanted to give her a perfect and unforgettable first time, not in the car, in the suburbs, when they were still siblings, andplete the solemn ceremony.
Mu Qing went to see Jing Yiran after giving Zheng Lun the medicine. He was in the same condition as yesterday, but he didn''t wake up. Lu was still by his side, refusing to eat or drink.
Lu would be fine even if she starved for ten days to half a month, but it was not a good idea to not eat anything.
After Mu Qing persuaded her for a long time and promised to stay by Jing Yiran''s side for a while, she finally got up and went out to eat.
Half an hourter, Lu came back.
"You finished it so quickly?" Mu Qing looked at her in a daze.
Lu nodded and stayed by Jing Yiran''s side, not saying anything more.
Mu Qing felt helpless. If Jing Yiran didn''t wake up, she couldn''t just keep waiting for him.
Fortunately, this was a hospital, and there was nock of nutrient solutions.
He left the intensive care unit and brought in two bags of nutrient fluids."Give me your hand. I''ll put you on an IV drip. You''ll be fine even if you don''t eat for the time being."
As long as she didn''t leave Jing Yiran, she was fine with anything.
Lu reached out her hand and let Mu Qing insert the needle into her body.| They entered her blood vessels and gave her an infusion.
She kept her eyes on Jing Yiran''s face and did not look at Mu Qing.
Even if Mu Qing had injected her with drugs instead of nutrient solution, she would not have been able to notice it.
Mu Qing gritted his teeth in anger when he saw her nonchnt look, but he could not bear to leave her alone.&nb
sp;
Well, he had always been soft-hearted and kind. He couldn''t just watch Lu go hungry all day.
He red at Jing Yiran who was lying on the bed, breathing weakly, and cursed him in his heart.
Jing Yiran hadn''t settled the score with him for imprisoning Zhao Anan, and now he had to save his life. What a shame!
He owed family Jing a lot of favors in his previous life. He had to save the lives of first master Jing and second master Jing every day. Now he had to worry about the food of second youngdy''s friend. He was so tired!
He didn''t even have the time to take care of his own girlfriend!
Chapter 691: Good news
Chapter 691: Good news
Mu Qing went straight back to his apartment after he left the hospital. He had only slept for a few hours in the past two days and he was exhausted. He needed a good rest.
He was going to find Zhao Anan after he had a good rest.
Mu Qing didn''t even have lunch and slept all the way until the evening. When he woke up, he was famished.
He called Shangguan ning after he had ordered some takeaway.
"Sister-inw, can I go and find Anan?" he asked. I want to tell her about yang Muyan in person. Can you change your n? Or ... Let''s not waste so much time and just leave it at that!"
Shangguan ning understood what he meant. She felt both angry and amused.
She had been so worried about the two of them, but neither of them appreciated it! Zhao Anan didn''t know the inside story yet, and she might argue with her in the future if she did. Judging from Mu Qing''s tone, he seemed to be very dissatisfied with her for not letting them meet.
Mu Qing was good at everything, but he was too soft-hearted and loved Zhao Anan too much. He couldn''t bear to let her suffer even a little bit.
When she had a high fever and almost passed out, Jing Yichen had forced her to get the marriage certificate at the Civil Affairs Bureau.
She didn''t have such feelings for Jing Yichen at that time. She even wanted to divorce Jing Yichen the next day, but she was touched by his sincerity and lived a happy life with him.
Did this mean that Jing Yichen did not love her enough?
On the contrary, it was because Jing Yichen loved her too much that he used all kinds of methods to get her to marry him.
There were times when one could not think too much about marriage. It was impossible to have everything perfect.
If Zhao Anan didn''t want to get married now, then he had to do it by force!
Shangguan ning was a woman herself and she could understand women''s thoughts. There were two different mentalities before and after marriage. If Zhao Anan had married Mu Qing, she would not have been so willful and would not have pushed Mu Qing away.
Without a marriage certificate, without a legal husband and wife rtionship, their psychological state was definitely different.
Mu Qing didn''t understand women''s thoughts. He only knew that if Zhao Anan didn''t want to marry him now, he wouldn''t force her.
Shangguan ning was so worried that her hair had turned white.
She sighed softly. It was indeed very, very difficult to interfere with someone else''s rtionship.
Even though she had been prepared to be doubted by both of them, she still felt bad when she heard that Mu Qing wanted to give up.
If it had been anyone else but Zhao Anan, she wouldn''t have gotten involved in this.
It really wasn''t worth it to put in effort.
But now that yang Muyan was involved, Shangguan ning couldn''t interfere too much. It was fine that Mu Qing wanted to exin yang Muyan to an an so badly.
So be it. She could just dy her n a little and change it.
In any case, she would definitely be able to get the two
of them together soon.
Shangguan ning was in a much better mood when she thought that Zhao Anan would marry Mu Qing.
"The n will definitely continue," she said to Mu Qing with a smile."I''ve prepared for so long and found so many people to help me. I can''t give up halfway. " Besides, I''m doing this partly for you, but mostly for Anan''s happiness. Only by marrying her to you can I be at ease and have a way to exin to Grandma and aunty. They said that Anan''s lifelong happiness is in my hands!"
Mu Qing was a little scared of Shangguan ning now. She was gentle and quiet most of the time, but when it came to matters of principle, she could be very strong and fierce, just like Jing Yichen.
"Can I go and find Anan?" he asked in a low voice.
"Alright, go!" Shangguan ning agreed with a bitter smile. She felt that she was the tyrant who had broken up the couple and forced them to be so stubborn that they would never see each other again.| Ang and a Weaver!
But if you didn''t do it, I wouldn''t need to be the viin!
She was willing to be a good person!
Hearing Shangguan ning''s promise, Mu Qing was so happy that he started to tter her. But Shangguan ning interrupted him with a smile."Alright, don''t just say nice things. I only have one request. You can''t tell Anan about the n. Don''t let her know what''s going to happen next. I don''t care about the rest." And he couldn''t do anything about it.
Mu Qing agreed with a smile and hung up the phone. He dressed himself up, took the gifts for the olddy and Zhao Zhao, and drove to the Zhao family.
As for Zhao Anan, the best gift for her was his body!
When Mu Qing arrived at the Zhao family''s house, the olddy of the Zhao family weed him personally. Zhao Zhao had gone on a business trip and wouldn''t be at home for the past two days.
The olddy had regarded Mu Qing as her grandson-inw for a long time. She couldn''t stop smiling when she saw him.
But she didn''t show too much enthusiasm today. She just talked to Mu Qing quietly.
Zhao Anan was acting weird today. She had locked herself in the room and didn''te out even when she heard that Mu Qing was here. It was really strange.
The olddy didn''t know what was wrong with her granddaughter, so she winked at Mu Qing and said in a low voice,"Good child, go up and take a look. If that girl goes crazy, you have to be more forgiving. You''ve suffered!"
Mu Qing shook his head with a smile."Grandma, don''t say that. I like Anan more than anything. I don''t feel wronged." No matter if she''s willing to marry me or not, I''ll take care of her for the rest of her life. Don''t worry, grandma!"
Mu Qing had said this more than once, but he had never said it so calmly.
In the past, when Zhao Anan didn''t want to marry him, he had been angry. But now, he didn''t care whether she married him or not. Even if she didn ''t, he would always treat her well.
"Also, grandma, I have good news for you. We''ve made a major breakthrough in the anti-cancer drug we''ve developed. Even if Anan has a rpse in the future, I think I can keep her alive!"
"What?"
The olddy of the Zhao family stood up from her chair and asked in surprise and joy, "You''re serious? Will Anan ... Be fine?"
"I''m not 100% sure, but I''m 90% sure!"
Mu Qing didn''t want to tell the olddy about it because his experiment was not finished yet. But he was very confident in his medicine. If he told the olddy about it now, she would be able to hand Zhao Anan over to him without worry.
As expected, the olddy was so happy that tears were rolling down her cheeks. She held Mu Qing''s hand and said,"Great, great! I knew that it was the right choice to let Anan follow you! I have to tell Anan''s mother about it. She will be so happy!"
Chapter 692: The trouble caused by the marriage certificate
Chapter 692: The trouble caused by the marriage certificate
The olddy of the Zhao family and Zhao Zhao were so keen to marry Zhao Anan to Mu Qing, not only because they liked each other, but also because family mu was a family of doctors and mu Wensheng was known as a Divine Doctor.
They had always thought that even if family mu couldn''t guarantee Zhao Anan a long life, she could at least live for another ten or twenty years.
Now that Mu Qing had developed a new drug, it must have been for Zhao Anan''s sake. Anan''s health would be better in the future.
The olddy found Mu Qing more and more pleasing to the eye. He was Zhao Anan''s Lucky Star!
Mu Qing smiled and said a few more words to the olddy before he went upstairs to find Zhao Anan.
He knocked on the door and said,"Anan, it''s me. I''ming in." Then, he opened the door and walked in.
Zhao Anan was dressed in white Home clothes, short sleeves and short pants, showing her long, white legs. She was lying on the bed and didn''t even look at Mu Qing when he came in.
"I begged grandma for a long time before she let me in. She only gave me ten minutes, and she''s going to kick me out soon."
Mu Qing walked to Zhao Anan''s bed and sat down. He reached out to touch her hair, but she avoided his touch.
Mu Qing noticed that her eyes were slightly red and swollen. She seemed to have cried.
The smile on Mu Qing''s face disappeared. He pulled her over and said with a frown, "What''s wrong with you?"
Zhao Anan threw a look at him, took out a thick envelope from under the pillow and threw it at him."Take your marriage certificate and get out of here!"
"A marriage certificate? What marriage certificate?"
Mu Qing was confused by her words and poured out all the contents of the envelope.
Inside was a thick stack of photos and a dazzling red booklet with threerge golden words written on it: A marriage certificate!
He opened it and saw that the two people who were getting married were: Mu Qing and yang Muyan!
The photos were all intimate ones of him and yang Muyan!
"Anan, I''m not married! This marriage certificate is fake!"
Mu Qing exined to Zhao Anan at once. He was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Zhao Anan''s tears came out again. Her voice was hoarse and full of sadness. "Don''t lie to me! I''ve already gotten someone to check, and your registration is at the Civil Affairs Bureau! Get out of the Zhao family! I don''t want to see you!"
"This is impossible!"
Mu Qing''s handsome face was full of anxiety."How can I marry yang Muyan? She hasn''t divorced Ji Bo yet, so it''s bigamy if they get married again!"
"What about these photos? When did you two be so intimate? have you been keeping me in the dark all this time? There''s no need to say anything, just get lost! I don''t n to marry you anyway. You''re the one who has been wanting to marry me! Now that you''ve married someone else, you still have the face toe! You''re really shameless!"
Although the photos and the marriage certifi
cate were in front of her, Mu Qing thought that Zhao Anan would not have believed in these things if she had trusted him a little.
.
Didn''t Zhao Anan know who he loved? Didn''t he always make it very clear who he wanted to marry?
He had never liked or touched any other woman since he was twenty years old. Zhao Anan was the only woman he had ever had.
If he really wanted to marry yang Muyan, why would he wait until today?
Would he wait until family yang was destroyed by family Jing and yang Muyan and Jing Yichen became enemies before he married yang Muyan?
Even if Zhao Anan was innocent, she was not that stupid.
Mu Qing''s face turned cold.
He stood up from the bed and looked at Zhao Anan with a sad look. He said word by word,"First of all, I didn''t marry yang Muyan. She was the one who got the marriage certificate. Second, these photos are photoshopped. I haven''t touched any other woman except you, not the patient. Third, I''m here to exin to you about yang Muyan. "
"Are you still lying to me?" Zhao Anan said harshly. If you don''t believe me, you can call Zheng Jing and ask him to check if you are married. "
Mu Qing was also furious. He could tolerate Zhao Anan''s stubbornness and scoundrels, but he would never allow her to misunderstand him because of this.
He loved her so much that it could be said that he gave his all to love her. He had no reservations in his love and did not expect anything in return.
He had done so much, but she didn''t even have the most basic trust in Him. In her heart, was he someone who would change his heart so easily?
He had thought that Zhao Anan would believe him no matter what.
"Zhao Anan, I repeat, I am not married! This is yang Muyan''s trick. Do you have a brain? how can you believe this?"
"Yes, I have no brain! Yang Muyan had one! Didn''t you always want to marry yang Muyan? Now that you''ve married her, you''ve seeded! Why did youe to me if you seeded? Are you here to see how pitiful I am? Mu Qing, I can live a good life without you! You''re an absolute bastard!"
She threw the pillow at Mu Qing while crying.
Mu Qing didn''t Dodge, but stood there and let her hit him.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger and difort in his heart. He exined indifferently,""I wanted to marry yang Muyan in the past because I wanted family yang to help family mu and family MU''s Hospital to develop better. We were still in a cold situation at that time. You refused to marry me, so I didn''t beg you to marry me."
"I''m only marrying her for money. She''s so ugly, do you think I''ll really like her? Although she''s beautiful now, it''s impossible for me to be moved by her. She is Ji Bo''s wife and master Jing''s enemy. Why did I have to marry her?"
Zhao Anan couldn''t believe it. She just couldn''t ept that Mu Qing had married another woman.
What was more, it was not a fake marriage certificate like what Mu Qing had said. When she had received it, she had also suspected that it was fake. But she had asked a friend who worked in the police station to check it and
found out that they were really married!
Those photos were so real. They were all intimate photos of Mu Qing and yang Muyan.
How could she not be angry or sad?
She had never seen yang Muyan before, but it was not difficult for her to find yang Muyan''s photo. It was because when yang Muyan and Ji Bo got married, their photos were all over the newspapers and the Inte.
Mu Qing could tell that Zhao Anan didn''t believe him. She didn''t know how to hide her emotions and showed it all on her face.
His heart was as cold as ice in winter, and it hurt so much that he almost couldn''t breathe.

Chapter 693-deception
Mu Qing resisted the urge to shake his head and leave, and said slowly,"Yang Muyan had stic surgery. I saw her the day before yesterday. The photos you saw on the marriage certificate and these photoshopped photos must have been prepared by her a long time ago. She doesn''t look like this now. "
Mu Qing''s words startled Zhao Anan.
Yang Muyan had stic surgery? The photos were all from a long time ago?
"As for why I saw her, it''s because she stole the key to my apartment from you. She was already waiting for me there before I came home. If I''m really married to her, why would she steal your keys? she could''ve just asked me for it. "
Zhao Anan didn''t know that she had lost her key. She jumped off the bed and took out her backpack from the cab. She searched inside and found that her key was indeed missing.
She fell to the ground and stood there in a daze.
When did she lose her key? Howe she didn''t know about it at all?
That day when she came out of Mu Qing''s apartment and met Zheng Jing, she took his wallet and then took a taxi home.
Yang Muyan had no chance to do it.
"I originally thought that if I let her go, she would let you go. I didn''t expect that I was still too naive! What she did to you was much worse than what she did to Zheng Lun! I''m sure you don''t know that she used your and Zheng Lun''s lives as an exchange to threaten Zheng Jing and me. She had poisoned Zheng Lun and wanted to make Zheng Lun mute. Although Zheng Lun has taken the antidote that I prescribed, the poison can not be removed so quickly. She is still coughing. If you don''t believe me, you can call her now. "
Was this for real?
Did Mu Qing lie to her?
She was tricked? Was this all part of yang Muyan''s scheme?
Zheng Lun was poisoned? How could it be like this!
"Also, in order to prevent you from getting into an ident, master Jing has sent more people to guard your house. Because she forced me to marry her, and if we didn''t get married, she would have you killed. I didn''t want to marry her, but I couldn''t risk your life either, so I went to master Jing and he sent someone to protect you. "
"Don''t go out these days. Stay at home, in case yang Muyan hurts you. Don''t ept any strange things sent in. Pay attention to your diet and don''t eat anything to prevent her from poisoning you. "
"There''s more," Mu Qing paused and said,"my team has developed thetest anti-cancer drug and it has entered the final stage of human trial. The efficacy will be determined in two months at the earliest. It should be avable next year." If your illness acts up again, you don''t have to go to Germany anymore. Remember toe and find me. I can''t guarantee that you''ll live to a hundred years old, but I should be able to give you a few more decades. "
Having said that, he opened the door and walked out, not caring about Zhao Anan''s expression.
The olddy of the Zhao family had heard the argument in the room. She had just found out that Zhao Anan had received a package containing Mu Qing''s marriage certificate.
She had experienced countless storms, so she naturally knew that there was something fishy about this. &
nbsp;
The olddy knew very well what kind of person Mu Qing was.
If he was really married to yang Muyan, he would not have refused to give up on Zhao Anan.
Obviously, Zhao Anan was confused because she cared too much about Mu Qing and was easily fooled by those things.
Of course, she might not have beenpletely deceived. The marriage certificate might be real, although Mu Qing did not register his marriage.
.
Seeing Mu Qinging out of Zhao Anan''s room with a pale face, the olddy knew what to say.
She had always felt guilty towards Mu Qing. Zhao Anan didn''t have long to live, and even having children was a problem, but she had selfishly forced Zhao Anan to be with him.
Zhao Anan''s capricious personality was partly because she had spoiled her only granddaughter too much.
She had never suffered since she was a child, and she had never suffered any setbacks. Other than her illness, nothing else had troubled her.
The Zhao family was very rich and she could spend as much as she wanted. The Jing family was the most powerful family in A city and had a global influence. No matter what happened to Zhao Anan, Jing Yichen could help her settle it in a short time.
Jing Yichen wouldn''t care if she lost to others in a fight. If anyone else wanted to bully her, they wouldn''t even live to see the next day.
She was used to being willful and reckless. She didn''t have to worry about money, work, or anyone''s opinion of her. She was the well-deserved little princess of A city.
The olddy of the Zhao family had to admit that Zhao Anan had many shorings.
She felt that she had not taught her granddaughter well. Zhao Anan was so innocent and gullible because she and Zhao Zhao spoiled her too much.
"Mu Qing, Anan ... She has been spoiled by me. Don''t take it to heart. She still has you in her heart, or she wouldn''t be so angry."
The olddy spoke up for her granddaughter shamelessly.
Mu Qing wanted to smile at the old man, but he couldn ''t.
He shook his head and said bitterly,""It''s fine, grandma. I''m just feeling a little ufortable for a while, but I''ll be fine in a while. Don''t let her go out these few days, it''s not safe outside. I''ll be leaving first, you can go up and see her. "
Mu Qing strode out of the Zhao family''s residence.
As soon as he got in the car, he called Zheng Jing."Help me check my marriage information!"
Zheng Jing heard something wrong with his tone and turned on theputer to help him.
A few minutester, Zheng Jing''s face turned dark and he sounded angry."Blockhead, you and yang Muyan ... Have already registered, but she''s so fast! He''s really sinister!"
Obviously, Zheng Jing had no doubt that Mu Qing had gone to get the marriage certificate with yang Muyan. Even if he had not seen yang Muyan at Mu Qing''s apartment that night, he would not have thought that they were married.
Even Zheng Jing trusted him so much, and Zhao Anan''s distrust made Mu Qing feel even worse.
Of course, what really made Mu Qing angry was what yang Muyan h
ad done.
The anger in his heart was instantly ignited. He mmed the car window down and cursed,""Dammit! Yang Muyan is crazy!"
The sound of typing came from the other end of the phone and Zheng Jing said,"Yang Muyan and Ji Bo''s marriage is still in effect. They are not divorced yet! She''s currently in a state of bigamy!"
However, it would be meaningless even if he knew that yang Muyan was bigamy!
A person like her didn''t care about thew at all. Even if she went to court, it would be useless.
Mu Qing took a deep breath and asked through gritted teeth,"Can you cancel our marriage?"
Chapter 694: Hickey
Chapter 694: Hickey
Zheng Jing smiled bitterly."I am a criminal Police officer, not a Civil Affairs Bureau. This is a divorce. I can''t do anything about it." You can only go to master Jing, he must have a way. "
Yang Muyan must have asked someone to help Mu Qing register. It was actually a simple matter. As long as she had a good rtionship with the Civil Affairs Bureau, they would not be too strict.
Besides, with yang Muyan''s ruthlessness, she would probably use the cruelest means to force the Civil Affairs Bureau to register their marriage. She didn''t care who she was married to or how many times she had been married.
Mu Qing was still in a bad mood after he hung up the phone.
He hated yang Muyan to the core. Even if they were to cancel their marriage, he would still be considered divorced!
The feeling of being forced to get married and get a divorce made Mu Qing very upset. Zhao Anan was the only one he wanted to get married to. How could he get married to yang Muyan?
Fortunately, this kind of marriage was meaningless. He had never promised yang Muyan anything, nor had he ever looked at her in the eye. The red marriage certificate was not valid.
After a while, Mu Qing called Jing Yichen.
He roughly exined the situation and asked for his help.
Ten minutes after he hung up, Jing Yichen sent him a message. It''s settled. It''s not a divorce. The marriage record has been removed.
What he meant was that he would erase Mu Qing''s marriage records, and the Civil Affairs Bureau would not be able to find out that he had been married to yang Muyan.
This was good! This is the best!
Mu Qing heaved a sigh of relief.
If the word ''divorce'' was written in his profile, he would be disgusted to death.
Jing Yichen was not only efficient, but also perfect.
Mu Qing was full of gratitude and admiration.
She didn''t know how he did it in the middle of the night. He probably had someone hack into the Civil Affairs Bureau''s system and change the data inside.
He hade here today with hope. He had wanted to have a good talk with Zhao Anan, but he had left in disappointment.
He returned home, exhausted. He turned on the light and found yang Muyan sitting in the living room again.
Mu Qing was so angry that he almost went berserk.
However, yang Muyan did note alone today.
In addition to her, there were more than a dozen bodyguards in ck standing in the living room. They all looked fierce and had guns in their hands. The muzzles of the guns were all pointed at Mu Qing.
Seeing yang Muyan''s face, Mu Qing was so angry that all the blood in his body rushed to the top of his head. If there were not so many guns pointed at him, he would have rushed up and killed yang Muyan.
"What are you doing here again? Get out! I don''t want to see you. If you dare toe in again, I''ll poison the house and poison you to death!"
Yang Muyan was dressed in a white dress and had long hair. She was sitting on the sofa elegantly with a cup of hot coffee in front of her. No one knew if she had bought it or brewed it at Mu Qing''s ce. &nbs
p;
She didn''t seem to take Mu Qing''s words to heart. She took a sip of her coffee elegantly, then looked up at Mu Qing and pointed at her throat.
Mu Qing then remembered that yang Muyan had been speechless after he had poured a cup of medicine down her throat.
A tall and strong man behind yang Muyan said,"My family''s youngdy''s throat is hoarse. Quickly prescribe medicine for youngdy and cure her throat! Otherwise, we''ll blow your head off!"
.
Mu Qing sneered. Cure her throat?
Not to mention that he couldn''t cure her, even if he could, he wouldn''t cure her!
"I can''t cure your throat, but you''ll be able to speak in a few days. I damaged your throat and you let me marry you once, so we''re even!"
A wise man knew better than to fight when the odds were against him. Mu Qing was not stupid enough to fight against these men with guns.
He could knock out a few with silver needles and drugs, but it was impossible to knock out all of them. He didn''t know if there were other bodyguards hiding around, so he couldn''t act rashly.
Yang Muyan smiled silently. There was no trace of anger on her beautiful face, but the viciousness in her eyes revealed her inner ruthlessness.
She pped her hands and four men came forward. They held Mu Qing down and tied his hands together.
"Yang Muyan, what are you doing?"
Mu Qing''s handsome face turned red. He waspletely infuriated.
Four strong men lifted him up without any hesitation, entered his bedroom, and threw him on the bed.
Yang Muyan followed them in. She waved her hand and the four men left quietly.
She gave Mu Qing a weird smile, then kicked off her shoes and got on the bed. Sheid on Mu Qing''s body.
She licked her lips and began to unbutton Mu Qing''s shirt with her long and white fingers.
Although she was beautiful and had a good figure, Mu Qing felt goosebumps all over his body when she touched him. It was disgusting.
It turned out that his disgust was so strong when he was touched by someone he hated!
Soon, yang Muyan had taken off Mu Qing''s shirt, but his hands were tied up and he couldn''t take it off.
Yang Muyan didn''t take off her clothes either. She looked at Mu Qing''s firm chest and smiled. Then she lowered her head and bit him.
She bit Mu Qing''s neck, chest, and stomach with great force. Soon, the skin was broken, leaving rows of clear and ambiguous teeth marks.
Mu Qing suddenly understood what she was going to do.
He was both shocked and angry. After struggling to free himself from the rope, he immediately took out a bunch of silver needles from under his pillow and stabbed yang Muyan with them.
Yang Muyan seemed to have expected that he would knock her out. She closed her eyes calmly and fell asleep.
Mu Qing couldn''t help but smile bitterly as he looked at the hickeys on his body.
If Zhao Anan saw these marks, she would definitely misunderstand again.
However, Mu Qing didn''t think that Zhao Anan woulde to him. She must be angry at the moment, and t
he olddy would not let her go out so easily.
He frowned slightly and looked at yang Muyan who was sleeping on the bed. He became more and more suspicious.
This cunning woman, could she havee up with another vicious idea?
Otherwise, she wouldn''t have bitten him on purpose today and left so many ambiguous marks.
That wasn''t the point. The point was how to kill yang Muyan and the dozen people outside!
It was not a good thing for yang Muyan to keeping to him. This woman was a lunatic and would do anything. If something happened between them one day, how could he face Zhao Anan?
Chapter 695: Misunderstanding
Chapter 695: Misunderstanding
Mu Qing got up and put on his clothes. Then he took out a pistol from a secretpartment under the bed, pulled up yang Muyan, who was still unconscious, and walked out of the room.
"Don''t move! I''ll kill anyone who moves!"
Mu Qing pointed the gun at yang Muyan''s forehead and shouted at the others.
Yang Muyan seemed to have fallen asleep. She leaned against Mu Qing''s body like an obedient kitten waiting to be ughtered.
These bodyguards had been carefully selected by yang Muyan and had been working for her for a long time. They were all very loyal to her. They did not dare to move when they saw Mu Qing pointing the gun at her.
Only the leader seemed to have received yang Muyan''s instructions. He took a step forward and waved to everyone."Everyone, get out!"
Hearing his words, everyone quickly left without any hesitation.
Mu Qing''s eyes flickered with a strange light and he became more suspicious.
In terms of schemes, Mu Qing was not yang Muyan''s match. He was only good at medicine, not scheming. Yang Muyan must have had a reason for all this!
The leader of the bodyguards did not seem to be worried about yang Muyan at all. He just stared at Mu Qing coldly and said,"If you let our young miss wake up, I will take her away and not make things difficult for you. Otherwise, you can just wait to collect your woman''s corpse!"
Mu Qing had inserted six silver needles into yang Muyan''s body today. He pushed one into her body and then pulled out the other five.
After a while, yang Muyan slowly woke up.
Mu Qing pushed her to the bodyguard.""You guys can get lost! The next time I see you, I won''t be so easy to talk to. Also, if anything happens to my woman, you will all die!"
In fact, he was not only worried about Zhao Anan''s safety, but also Zheng Lun ''s.
Yang Muyan had killed Ji Lili without any hesitation. If she really wanted to kill Zhao Anan or Zheng Lun, it wouldn''t be difficult. No matter how tight the security was, she could still find a way to put her hand in.
She could poison Zheng Lun without anyone knowing and Zheng Jing still couldn''t figure out how Zheng Lun was poisoned, which meant that she must have some special means.
Yang Muyan hade to his house again because she knew that he would not kill her.
However, he couldn''t kill her, but he could still nt a hidden danger in her body. It wouldn''t be a problem for him to do something to her.
Did yang Muyan think that she was the only one who could poison her?
What a joke! He, Mu Qing, was the master of poison!
However, in order not to arouse yang Muyan''s suspicion, he didn''t use too much poison. He was sure that there wouldn''t be too much of a reaction now, but in the future, she would wish she was dead!
Yang Muyan stared at Mu Qing''s handsome face. Even if Mu Qing had been mean to her, she would have endured it.
What one could not get was often the best.
Mu Qing didn''t like her, which made her even more obsessed with him.
She was in a good mood because she had left so many marks on Mu Qing''s body. She was not angry when Mu Qi
ng poked her and made her faint, and said such mean things to her.
.
"If I can''t get it, then no one else can. I can''t bear to let you die, but I can''t let you live toofortably either. I have to let you know that I''m the woman most suitable for you in this world! Just you wait, I''ll give you a surprise!"
Yang Muyan talked to Mu Qing in silence. Mu Qing could not understand what she was saying, but he knew that she was not saying anything good.
Yang Muyan and her men left after they had achieved their goal.
At the same time, Zhao Anan was sitting on the bed in a daze. Then her phone rang, indicating that she had a new message.
She opened it and found that it was a picture of yang Muyan and Mu Qing being intimate in Mu Qing''s apartment. Mu Qing''s body was covered with hickeys, and yang Muyan was lying on top of him in an extremely ambiguous position.
Then, he received a text message on his phone."Zhao Anan, you should quit. Mu Qing is mine now and you can''t live for long. Don''t drag him down. Also, I had people Photoshop the original photos, but this one is not. If you don''t believe me, you can take a look at Mu Qing. His body was really iparably hot, leaving one with an endless aftertaste!
Zhao Anan smashed the phone after reading the message.
Without another word, she got out of bed, put on her shoes, and ran out.
The bodyguards of the Zhao family stopped her from leaving. Zhao Anan made a big fuss and scolded all the people who stopped her. Her voice was so loud that it startled the olddy.
"Anan, it''s sote. What are you doing?"
The olddy was very angry. She used to think that Zhao Anan was a girl and that family Zhao could afford to spoil her.
But now, she finally realized that no matter if it was a boy or a girl, they couldn''t be too pampered. Otherwise, if they made a fuss, they would be ignorant and it would be too easy for problems to arise.
Mu Qing had warned her not to go out today and Jing Yichen had called her to keep an eye on her, but she had insisted on going out.
"Grandma, I''m going to find Mu Qing! He''s with another woman, he''s with another woman, they''re married!"
The olddy really wanted to give her granddaughter a tight p!
However, she couldn''t bear to hit him. She only said in an extremely cold voice,""Anan, is this what I taught you? How many times have I asked you if you want to marry Mu Qing? What''s your answer? You tell me!"
Zhao Anan kept silent.
"Alright, you won''t tell me, right? Then let me ask you again, are you going to marry Mu Qing?"
Zhao Anan''s eyes were full of tears, but she was determined to not let them fall. She tried her best to hold them back and shouted,"I won''t marry! He has an affair with another woman, of course I won''t marry him!"
"Since you''re not getting married, what right do you have to care who she''s getting married to? What does it have to do with you who he is with? Go back and reflect on your actions. You''re not allowed to go anywhere for the next few days!"
"I don''t care! Even if I don''t marry him, I''ll still ask him and die knowing the truth!"
"Shut up!" The olddy''s voice w
as harsh. She hated it when Zhao Anan said the word "death". She thought it was inauspicious.
She said to a bodyguard of the Zhao family who was responsible for Zhao Anan''s safety,"Knock miss out and send her back to her room! You just stand guard outside her room and don''t let her go anywhere!"
The bodyguard answered "yes" in a low voice and then said to Zhao Anan,"sorry to offend you, mydy." Then he quickly chopped at the back of Zhao Anan''s neck.
Zhao Anan passed out before she could resist.
The olddy of the Zhao family shook her head. She waved at the bodyguard helplessly and asked him to take Zhao Anan in.
Chapter 696: The Ji familys counterattack
Chapter 696: The Ji family''s counterattack
Ji Lili''s death had infuriated the Ji family.
In the silent night, someone had brazenly barged into the Ji family''s heavily-guarded vi and used brutal means to kill the princess that the Ji family had raised. Then, despite being surrounded and blocked by many people, he had easily escaped!
This was for Ji jiachi.| Naked| Naked contempt!
Moreover, when Ji Lili died, there was not a single part of her body that was intact. The autopsy report proved that she was humiliated by Ling LAN before she died.
Family Ji soon found out that yang Muyan was the one who had sent them.
Ji Lili and yang Muyan had once had a fierce argument. It was normal for yang Muyan to kill Ji Lili in such a cruel way, given her stubborn and arrogant personality.
When Ji Minyu saw her daughter die with her eyes wide open, she immediately had a heart attack and passed out. She was still lying in the hospital and had not woken up.
Old Madam Ji fainted from anger, but she quickly regained her consciousness. Hatred and anger supported her, making her look tougher than usual.
She had used all the connections of family Ji to kill yang Muyan.
At the same time, she spent eight million Yuan to hire two top killers to kill yang Muyan.
However, three dayster, not only did they fail to kill yang Muyan, but the two killers were also killed. Many people in the Ji family''s officialdom were reported, and their business cooperation was greatly affected. The losses increased sharply.
Olddy Ji was shocked and angry. She called everyone in the Ji family and announced that whoever could kill yang Muyan would inherit the family.
Everyone wanted the right of inheritance, and Ji Bo was no exception.
Originally, if Ji Lili had not been in trouble, the Ji family''s inheritance would have been his. However, after Ji Lili''s ident, olddy Ji used the inheritance as a bargaining chip and forced everyone to deal with yang Muyan.
Ji Bo didn''t want to deal with yang Muyan for the rest of his life. No one knew yang Muyan better than him. She was not a human being, but a demon!
Moreover, she was all alone now and had a small goal. The Ji family, on the other hand, was so huge that they were simply living targets for her to do whatever she wanted!
However, everyone in the Ji family was looking at him strangely, as if he should not be alive if he did not avenge Ji Lili.
Yes, yang Muyan was still his wife, and they were not divorced yet.
Moreover, it was no secret that Ji Lili liked him. Ji Bo was the reason why she had a fight with yang Muyanst time.
In fact, Ji Bo didn''t feel good about Ji Lili''s death. Although he hated Ji Lili and wanted to strangle her to death sometimes, it didn''t mean that Ling LAN could insult her as she pleased!
He was not sure if he could kill yang Muyan, but he had to try.
Ji Bo called Jing Yichen for help.
They now belonged to the same camp and had amon enemy, so cooperation was necessary.
Jing Yichen told Ji Bo
all the information he had found about yang Muyan and gave him an address.
Ji Bo went to yang Muyan during the day and told her that the day was more advantageous for him and the night was more advantageous for yang Muyan.
Yang Muyan was slightly surprised to see Ji Bo.
"Ji Bo, how dare youe to see me alone? aren''t you afraid that I will kill you?"
She had taken a lot of medicine to protect her throat, and she could finally make a little sound today. Although it was hoarse and unpleasant to hear, she could at least speak.
Ji Bo didn''t know that yang Muyan had gone through stic surgery. He was surprised to see her face, but he was sure that it was yang Muyan just by her voice. No one else had such an unpleasant voice.
"Yang Muyan, I want to divorce you."
Yang Muyan was protected by more than a dozen bodyguards, so it would be extremely difficult to kill her today.
Ji Bo told him the excuse that he had made up before he came here. He stood there quietly, thinking of a solution.
"Divorce? Are you sure you''re here to divorce me and not to kill me? Hmph, you''ve be more courageous now. Who gave you that courage? Jing Yichen? Or are you one of those Ji family''s so-called politicians?"
Yang Muyan had exposed Ji Bo''s real purpose. Lying in front of her was asking for death!
Ji Bo panicked for a moment when his real purpose was exposed by her, but he soon calmed down.
He did note alone today.
He had brought enough men with him. Even if he could not kill yang Muyan, he could protect himself.
"You killed my cousin. Don''t you deserve to die?!"
Ji Bo couldn''t contain his anger when he thought of Ji Lili''s miserable condition.
If she was killed, then so be it. Yet, she refused to let her die a quick death and insisted on torturing her until there was no intact skin on her body. How could there be such an evil woman in this world!
And he had even worked with this demon and even married her!
He was really lucky to be able to live until now!
"Hahaha!" Yang Muyanughed with a twisted expression. Herughter was hoarse and vicious, as if it came from hell.
"Kill your cousin? Not only will I kill your cousin, but I''ll also kill everyone in the Ji family one by one!"
Hearing that, Ji Bo''s face changed and he said sternly,""Yang Muyan, don''t go too far! Family Ji has nothing against you and I even helped you when you needed it the most. If it weren''t for family Ji''s protection, you would have been killed by Jing Yichen. Is this how you repay me?"
He knew that yang Muyan wasn''t joking, nor was she threatening him. She was a woman of her word! Human lives were nothing in her eyes!
"Oh, in that case, you can live! The rest of you will all die!"
Yang Muyan stood up and walked to Ji Bo in her beautiful Golden High heels.
"After all, you''re still my husband in name. If you die, wouldn''t I be a widow? Moreover, if everyone in the Ji fa
mily dies, I might not be able to get your family''s inheritance. It''s more useful for me to have you alive!"
The Ji family was a big family, and most of their assets were definitely in the hands of the heir. Other than the heir himself, who knew how to use the assets, no one else knew.
Family Ji''s assets, including family Ji''s enterprise, were not easy to acquire. Yang Muyan might be able to get a small part of the assets on the surface, but she would not be able to get the bigger assets.
Just like the Yang family, Jing zhongxiu had only destroyed the assets of the Yang family on the surface. No one knew how many assets they had and how to get them.
Chapter 697
Chapter 697
All of family Yang''s assets were now in yang Muyan''s hands. Thanks to her outstanding talent, olddy Yang had secretly transferred most of family Yang''s assets to yang Muyan.
One of the most important reasons why yang Muyan had not divorced Ji Bo was that she had been coveting the properties of family Ji.
The Yang family''s remaining assets had almost been squandered away by her. If she didn''t have money, she would be dead!
Ji Bo had always known that yang Muyan was coveting the assets of family Ji. She had even proposed that she would help him get the inheritance of family Ji, and then they would share all the assets of family Ji.
Family Ji''s assets were worth hundreds of billions of Yuan. How could Ji Bo share them with yang Muyan?
"You want to take something from the Ji family? In your dreams!"
Every family had its own glory. As the secondrgest family in city A, family Ji had stood tall for hundreds of years. Although there would be fierce internal conflicts in every generation, they were basically United when it came to dealing with outsiders.
Ji Bo had always wanted to be the heir of family Ji and lead family Ji to a brighter future. He had a strong sense of responsibility and would never give up family Ji easily.
"If you want to take it, then try it! Our Ji family has been standing for hundreds of years, so why would we be afraid of a mentally unstable woman like you?"
Ji Bo didn''t believe that yang Muyan could do anything when family Ji and family Jing joined hands.
"A hundred years?" Yang Muyan sneered and said, "Don''t think too highly of yourself! Do you think that your family is as impregnable as the Jing family? I only need to use a little trick and family Ji will immediately fall apart! Jing Yichen is the only heir of family Jing and it is useless to try to drive a wedge between him and family Jing. But it is very useful to family Ji. "
Ji Bo looked at her coldly and said,"if family Ji was so easy to be tricked by you, they would have been long gone!" You''re scheming so much to deal with family Ji just for money?"
"Money? Hmph, of course money is important! But it''s also important that I don''t like your family! I''m the only one left in our Yang family. Those who should die and those who shouldn''t have died are all dead. Why is your Ji family still so flourishing? I want all of you to die! In the end, you''re the only one left in the Ji family, and you''ll have to live a lonely and difficult life!"
Ji Bo looked at yang Muyan as if she was a lunatic and said angrily,"It was family Jing who destroyed family yang, what does it have to do with family Ji? Go deal with family Jing if you can!"
"Don''t worry, you are the only one alive in family Ji. As for family Jing, none of them will be able to survive. I will exterminate their entire n!"
Yang Muyan would be in a good mood whenever she thought that family Ji and family Jing would decline like family yang.
She had imagined more than once how rich she would be if she could get the properties of family Ji and family Jing.
She wanted to be the Queen of A city!
"Alright, Ji Bo, you can get lost now. You''re still too inexperienced! Also, as punishment for trying to kill me, Ji Minyu will never wake up
again! It''s not a bad idea for the mother and daughter to keep each otherpany on the road to theherworld!"
"What? Yang Muyan, you''re not human!"
Ji Bo shouted in anger.
She actually killed her aunt, Ji Minyu?
Yang Muyan hadpletely turned into a homicidal maniac! She was addicted to killing!
Ji Bo threw himself at yang Muyan without a second thought, and the two of them fell to the ground.
Yang Muyan''s bodyguards were about to shoot, but a loud explosion sounded and they were all blown away.
However, more bodyguards rushed in immediately. Their mission was to protect yang Muyan, and now that she was in danger, they would naturally do their best to protect her.
.
The aftermath of the explosion made Ji Bo and yang Muyan''s lips bleed.
Yang Muyan stared at Ji Bo and said with a vicious look,"Ji Bo, how dare you blow me up with explosives! I originally wanted to let you live, but since you''re looking for death, then you can''t me me!"
As she said this, she took out a sharp de from her underwear and aimed at Ji Bo''s throat.
Ji Bo was much stronger than her. Seeing that she had taken out the de, he held her down with both hands. The de stopped one centimeter away from his neck and could not move any further.
However, yang Muyan was cautious and suspicious by nature. She had set up an impregnable defense in this ce. After the round of explosions, her men rushed in and surrounded Ji Bo.
However, Ji Bo had also brought many people with him. Both sides were confronting each other, and neither side made a move.
The situation was in a deadlock. Ji Bo was strong, but yang Muyan was full of tricks. She had a de in her underwear and in her mouth!
She put her mouth close to Ji Bo''s face. Ji Bo thought that yang Muyan was going to kiss him, but the next second, yang Muyan spat out a de and cut his handsome face with it.
Ji Bo felt the pain and kicked yang Muyan away.
He used all his strength and broke yang Muyan''s ribs with a crack!
Yang Muyan screamed and fell to the ground, unable to get up.
Her men protected her at once and pointed their guns at Ji Bo.
Ji Bo''s men also protected him and pointed their guns at yang Muyan.
Neither side was willing to give in, but it was obvious that yang Muyan was at a disadvantage.
Although Ji Bo''s face was burning with pain, he had never felt so good before!
He had always thought that yang Muyan was an unshakeable legend. He had always been afraid of yang Muyan''s ruthlessness. He was even trembling when he came to see her.
Everything that happened today was just him holding on!
But in the end, when he faced the threat of death, he exploded with a powerful force.
It turned out that he could also hurt the cunning and vicious yang Muyan!
Although she had a lot of people protecting her, her personalbat power was low, and she was tyrannical, relying on those unreliable external forces!
He cou
ldn''t kill yang Muyan today, but it was enough to severely injure her.
In the future, he would definitely be able to kill her!
Ji Bo soon left with his men. He went straight to the hospital where Ji Minyu was staying, without even taking care of the wound on his face.
However, he was still toote.
Ji Minyu was no longer breathing.
The hospital''s death report stated that Ji Minyu died of natural causes.
Ji Minyu''s heart was not good to begin with, and it wasmon for her to go into shock. It was normal for a heart disease patient to die after shock.
Chapter 698: The trouble caused by old Wang next door
Chapter 698: The trouble caused by old Wang next door
Family Ji all thought that Ji Minyu had died of a heart attack. Only Ji Bo knew that yang Muyan was the one behind her death.
Ji Bo didn''t tell the Ji family about this. He only told Jing Yichen everything.
Jing Yichen was the only one who had a safe way to deal with yang Muyan, who was a paranoid person with high intelligence.
However, yang Muyan had disappeared again after that.
Jing Yichen spent a long time looking for the real yang Muyan, but failed. All the information he got was fake.
With yang Muyan''s intelligence and ability, it would be very easy for her to hide. She was good at disguising and using everything. Anyone could be her cover.
For such a venomous snake to go into hiding, it was not a good thing for everyone.
There were only Jing Tianyuan, Jing zhongxiu, Jing Yichen, Jing Rui, who was still in his infant form and Jing Yiran, who was lying in the hospital.
Killing these five people was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
However, the Ji family was different.
The Ji family was prosperous and not United enough, so it would not take too much effort to kill them.
Almost every week, someone from family Ji would die mysteriously. Within a month, four people had died, including Ji Bo''s father, Ji minjue.
The entire Ji family was in a state of panic, afraid that they would be the next one to die.
Ji Bo had lost his father. He was very sad, but he gathered the power of family Ji in a more aggressive way. He had even asked the olddy to take over the entire family Ji and use all the power of family Ji to deal with yang Muyan.
In just a month, old Madam Ji seemed to have aged by ten years. Her hair was white and her eyes were still sharp and filled with deep hatred. Even her physical condition was rapidly declining.
Her son, daughter, and granddaughter were all dead, and there were even more people dying. They were all so young, but they all died in front of her, an old woman.
Hatred supported her to live on. She held family Ji''s assets tightly in her hands and refused to give them to anyone, not even Ji Bo.
Whoever could kill yang Muyan would own family Ji.
It had been one and a half months since the surgery, but Jing Yiran still had not woken up.
Mu Qing, who had never doubted his medical skills, was now suspecting that he had screwed up the surgery.
However, after he looked through the video of his surgery countless times, he was sure that there was no problem with his surgery.
But Jing Yiran didn''t wake up. Mu Qing was so worried that he couldn''t even eat. He had been thinking hard every day to figure out what had gone wrong. He went to see Jing Yiran every day and tried all kinds of ways to wake him up.
Another person who had no appetite was Lu.
At first, she would ask Mu Qing when Jing Yiran would wake up every day, but now she stopped.
She stayed by Jing Yiran''s side every day. If he didn''t wake up, she would keep himpany.
Mu Qing had no choice but to check Jing Yiran''s head again. He found that he was recovering well and should not have been in aa for such a long time.
He had encountered another difficult problem in his medical career.
Jing Yiran showed no signs of waking up after trying all kinds of methods. Mu Qing had no other choice but to ask his Grandpa for help.
Although Jing Yiran had been driven out of family Jing, he was still a member of family Jing. Mu Wensheng went to the hospital after asking for Jing Tianyuan''s opinion.
Mu Qing would be scolded every time he asked Grandpa mu to help him.
Not only Mu Qing, but everyone in the MU family was the same. Anyone who asked the old man for help would be scolded badly. Mu Qing was the grandson that the old man was most proud of, so he was also scolded badly.
"You only know how to follow a woman all day, and now you''re not even studying medicine! You have the nerve to be the hospital director when such a big problem urs during an operation? You''ve embarrassed me. Don''t tell anyone you''re my grandson!"
Mu Qing mumbled discontentedly,"even if I don''t say that I am your grandson, everyone will know that I am." If I insist that he isn ''t, people might think that my dad is the child of my grandmother and old Wang next door!"
The old man had sharp ears and clear eyes, so he heard his mumbling clearly. He was instantly angered by him!
He raised his big hand and pped the back of Mu Qing''s head. Then he took off his shoes and pped Mu Qing''s butt.
As he hit her, he scolded her,"you little brat, what old Wang next door!" Your grandmother has been dead for so many years, and you dare to nder her! I know better than you whether your dad is my son or not! I''ll beat you to death! You''re talking nonsense, I''m so angry!"
Mu Qing was seeing stars and his butt seemed to be on fire.
He jumped up and down in the office, running for his life and wailing,""Argh! Grandpa, I was wrong, I was wrong! I''m talking nonsense, my dad is definitely your biological son! Don''t hit me anymore, someone''s going to die!"
The old man hit her for a long time until he was covered in sweat. He then stopped and sat on the chair to put on his shoes.
Mu Qing''s butt was beaten so badly that it bloomed. I''m definitely not grandpa''s biological grandson. Otherwise, why would I be so cruel?
Of course, he didn''t dare to say this out loud. Otherwise, he would definitely be beaten up again.
It was just a joke, and the old man actually took it seriously! Seriously, she was so angry that she almost killed him!
Although he had never met his grandmother, he had heard from his father and uncles that his grandmother was the most virtuous and gentle person. She had a very good rtionship with the old man. Of course, it was impossible for her to have an old Wang next door.
Alright, he definitely wouldn''t speak nonsense in the future. After all, troublees from the mouth!
However, after such a beating, the old man had forgotten that he had criticized his grandson for only knowing how to please women and not studying medicine.
;
He changed into a sterile suit in a Huff and went to the intensive care unit.
However, when he saw the patient, he immediately put away all his emotions and checked Jing Yiran''s data seriously. Then he took his pulse for a long time.
Mu Qing didn''t dare to say anything. He just stood aside obediently. His butt was in so much pain that he didn''t dare to sit.
Lu knew what the old man was capable of. Seeing that he was here, her eyes lit up.
Mu Qing was good at both Chinese and Western medicine. He might be as good as Grandpa in Western medicine, but he was far worse than mu Wensheng in Chinese medicine.
Chapter 699-no successor
Chapter 699-no sessor
One had to rely on talent and experience to read someone''s pulse. Mu Qing was talented enough, but he was far less experienced than Grandpa mu. Therefore, he could not see the problem that Grandpa mu could see.
Mu Wensheng took a long time to check Jing Yiran''s pulse.
Although Mu Qing''s medical skills were not as good as his, he was already very good. He had a solid foundation, but hecked experience. If even he couldn''t find out what was wrong with Jing Yiran, it meant that Jing Yiran''s problems wereplicated and rare. He needed to investigate them one by one.
An hourter, mu Wensheng''s forehead was full of sweat.
Feeling the pulse was very exhausting. After all, the old man was old, and he could not take such a long time.
Mu Qing wiped the sweat off his face gently and stood beside Grandpa, waiting for the result and grandpa''s guidance.
Half an hourter, mu Wensheng stopped and started to teach Mu Qing what Jing Yiran''s problem was.
It was a good case. Grandpa didn''t start the treatment immediately. Instead, he used Jing Yiran as a teaching material and exined it to Mu Qing in detail.
Lu didn''t say anything. She just sat there quietly and listened to mu Wensheng say a lot of words that she didn''t understand.
Although she didn''t understand the technical terms, she understood that Grandpa knew what was the cause of Jing Yiran''sa.
This point alone gave Lu great hope.
Mu Wensheng exined to Mu Qing for more than an hour before he stopped.
Mu Wensheng recovered his strength and energy after a short rest at noon. He took Mu Qing back to the intensive care unit and started the two-hour acupuncture session for Jing Yiran.
After the acupuncture, mu Wensheng''s face looked a bit pale. Jing Yiran, who was pale before, looked much better now, although he was still unconscious.
While mu Wensheng was performing acupuncture, Mu Qing was learning from him.
When he saw the old man''s superb acupuncture technique, he was full of admiration.
He was currently unable to perform this technique.
Mu Wensheng was probably the only person in the world who could do that. Jing Yiran''s current situation was beyond the help of Western medicine, and could only be solved by acupuncture.
That was to say, only Grandpa could save Jing Yiran.
Every time Mu Qing saw his Grandpa save a life, he would be shocked. He would value the medical skills of family mu even more. His Grandpa was so powerful, and the knowledge of family mu could not be lost on him.
He could understand why Mu Wensheng didn''t want him to marry Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan was infertile, which meant that he would have no offspring.
If he didn''t have his own children and couldn''t pass on his medical skills to others generously, then what awaited him would be the MU family''s top secret medical skills that no one could inherit. The things that had been painstakingly studied for dozens of generations would all be lost.
The old man had always hoped that he could have his own son as soon as possible so that he could personally teach his great-grandson and pass on the medical skills of the MU family to carry forward.
This was a precious treasure that could save countless lives. The MU family''s ancestral teaching was that one must preserve their medical skills even at the cost of one''s life. &n
bsp;
Whoever lost the inheritance of medical skills would be the sinner of the MU family for thousands of years.
Among the younger generation of the MU family, there was no one who was talented in medical skills.
Talent was the most likely to be inherited, so mu Wensheng thought highly of Mu Qing''s child, because Mu Qing''s medical talent was the highest in family mu.
It was impossible for him to adopt a talented child to inherit the MU family''s medical skills. This would vite the MU family''s ancestral teachings, and secondly, the MU family was separated by ayer, so he would have less responsibility for the inheritance of the medical skills.
Mu Wensheng stood up and patted his grandson''s shoulder heavily. He sighed and said,""Ah Qing, Grandpa is not afraid of anything else, but I''m afraid that our Mu family has no sessor! If that''s the case, how can I face the MU family''s ancestors in the underworld?"
Mu Qing was extremely ashamed and felt terrible. His eyes were red and he sobbed,"Grandfather, grandson is unfilial! I''ve made you suffer!"
He had been proud of his family name since he was young. He had grown up under the Halo of his grandfather''s "Divine Doctor". He had always regarded his family as more important than anything else.
Mu Wensheng had once asked him to marry yang Muyan not only because family yang could provide a strong financial support to family mu, but also because yang Muyan had been known as the "child prodigy" since she was a child. It was said that she was extremely intelligent, had a photographic memory, and was very smart.
If he gave birth to a son with such a woman, the child would inherit his parents ''powerful genes. He would be born with unparalleled inborn advantages, and his medical skills would be twice as effective with half the effort.
Mu Wensheng had only mentioned this reason once, and he had never mentioned it again.
He loved Mu Qing so much that he didn''t want to force him to marry a woman he hated.
However, if his grandson had no children, it would be an even more difficult problem.
Mu Wensheng had just finished his acupuncture. He looked very tired and much older than he usually was.
Mu Qing felt very sad. His Grandpa was already so old, but he was still worried about him.
He was with Jing Tianyuan every day. He must be very envious of him when he saw that Jing Tianyuan had a great-grandson.
Mu Wensheng seemed to know that his grandson was feeling bad too. He patted his grandson''s head affectionately and spoke to him in a rare gentle tone.
"You''re the most talented person in our family. I''ve brought you up since you were young, but your mother has always been resentful of me. She hates that I''m an old man who stole her son away from her. As a result, you''re closer to me than she is."
"No, Grandpa. My mother has always respected you. It''s all thanks to you that I''m where I am today. My mother said that if I followed her, I wouldn''t have achieved what I have today."
Mu Wensheng shook his head slightly.
His daughter-inw did respect him, but she also hadints.
That was normal. He had deprived his daughter-inw of the right to be a mother. Mu Qing had grown up under his guidance and his daughter-inw had rarely held Mu Qing. Unless she did not love Mu Qing, she would definitely feel sad.
However, mu Wensheng did not regret his decision.
Mu Qing was s
o talented that he should have started to develop his interest in medicine from a young age, even if his daughter-inwined about it.
Mu Qing wasn''t close to his parents. He was the closest to Grandpa, and he knew that.
However, he didn''t think there was anything bad about it.
After his grandmother had passed away, the old master had always been alone. It was only right for him to be filial to the old man and take care of his children.
Even if his parents did not have him, the two of them could still apany each other. Furthermore, without him, the third wheel, the two of them had a very good rtionship.
Chapter 700: Nurturing the embryo
Chapter 700: Nurturing the embryo
Mu Wensheng sighed as he looked at the unconscious Jing Yiran and said calmly,"Jing Tianyuan has always been very lucky. He only has one son, and his son is very good in all aspects. Even his son is very capable. Their family has strong genes. Except for Jing Yiran, everything else is going well."
As he spoke, heughed at himself,""I used tough at him every day, saying that his grandson didn''t like women and that he would marry a man for him in the future."
"But Jing Yichen got married faster than anyone else and gave birth to a chubby boy in the second year. I was so envious that I even went to see Jing Rui a few times. That kid is really strong. I''ve never seen someone who looks so good at seven months of birth. He will definitely be an excellent heir of family Jing in the future. "
"Look at our family, although everyone is good, there is no one who can support the family! It''s not easy to have such an outstanding person like you, yet you fell in love with a girl who''s not in good health. "
Mu Qing''s heart ached when he heard Grandpa MU''s words.
He knelt down in front of the old man with a "plop," and his tears fell onto the spotless ground with a "plop," turning into a cold drop of water.
"Grandpa, I''m sorry ..."
"Unfilial" was no longer enough to express his sins.
Mu Qing med himself and felt very pained, but he could not give up on Zhao Anan.
Grandpa knew that Mu Qing would not give up on Zhao Anan. He was just expressing his feelings today, not to force him to marry another woman.
There were benefits to having more offspring in the MU family. If Mu Qing could not have children, then they would let the other grandsons have more. One of them would be more talented and would learn medical skills from Mu Qing.
However, mu Wensheng was still unwilling to give up his grandson''s excellent genes. He always felt that only Mu Qing''s offspring would be the most outstanding.
"If you insist on marrying Zhao Anan, I won''t stop you. But you can''t have no children. Help her get some egg cells and freeze them in case she needs them. "
"Grandpa, what are you ..." Mu Qing raised his head in shock.
Could it be that the old man was going to cultivate the embryo himself?
"Let''s try. This is thest resort. "
Mu Wensheng couldn''t guarantee that it would work. If he was right, the egg cells in Zhao Anan''s body would be very weak and the survival rate would be very low.
For the next three days, mu Wensheng came to do acupuncture for Jing Yiran every day. On the fourth day, he asked Mu Qing to do it himself, and he was only responsible for guiding him.
Mu Wensheng only needed two hours to do the acupuncture, but Mu Qing took three and a half hours.
However, it was his first time performing such aplicated acupuncture. To be able to seed in one try was already a Testament to his amazing talent.
In this way, mu Wensheng wanted a great-grandson of mu Qingsheng even more.
Jing Yiran''s condition was getting better day by day. He could even move his hands and feet now, which made Lu very happy.
Mu Qing, on the other hand, was caught up in another huge problem.
How was he going to trick Zhao Anan into going to the hospital and then tak
e out her egg cells?
They had not reconciled after Yang Muyan''s trouble.
The olddy of the Zhao family even called him to tell him that Zhao Anan had received a text message and a picture of him being intimate with another woman. She was so angry that she pulled a long face for a few days, as if someone owed her five million Yuan.
.
Mu Qing had a headache whenever he thought of Zhao Anan. He had stopped being angry with her a long time ago, but Zhao Anan must have been angry with him all this time.
If he had told her directly that he wanted to take her egg cells, she would definitely have beaten him to death.
No, no, he had to n it well.
The old man was really good at this. He had actually thought of such a good idea!
When the embryo was sessfully cultivated, he could go abroad and find a surrogate to give birth to the child. Then, he would be a father!
But he was not sure if Zhao Anan would cut him to death if she knew about it.
Mu Qing was doing acupuncture for Jing Yiran seriously while he was nning to take out the egg.
Jing Yiran finally woke up on the eighth day after seven days of acupuncture.
Since Jing Yiran had woken up, Mu Qing was not needed anymore. Anyway, Lu would take care of him.
He didn''t need to do acupuncture for Jing Yiran, so he spent all his time on Zhao Anan''s ovum extraction.
Removing the ovum was not easy. Women were different from men. Women usually only discharged one ovum a month, and they could only have a total of 400 or so in their lifetime.
But Zhao Anan''s situation was special. Her egg cells were less active and there were fewer of them.
The first step to removing the ovum was to undergo anovting treatment at the beginning of her period, which meant that she needed to be injected with ovum-promoting growth hormone. The course of treatment would take about half a month.
During this period, the ovum needs to be constantly monitored by B-ultrasound. When the ovum has developed to arge enough size, under the guidance of B-ultrasound, the ovary is pierced through the vagina by a puncture needle to extract the ovum fluid.
The subsequent work of extracting the ovum from the ovum fluid was left to Mu Qing, and Zhao Anan did not need to be involved in it.
ording to Zhao Anan''s physical condition, one course of treatment was not enough. She needed at least three courses of treatment to extract enough good quality ovum.
If he had told Zhao Anan the truth, she would have left immediately. He had to lie to get the eggs.
However, it was a matter of great importance and Mu Qing couldn''t make the decision alone. He invited the olddy of the Zhao family and Zhao Zhao to dinner and told them everything in detail.
The two of them were shocked. They had been dreaming of having Zhao Anan''s child, but Zhao Anan had gone through too many chemotherapy sessions and her gongs were damaged. It was almost impossible for her to get pregnant.
Now that there was a way for Zhao Anan to have her own children, they could not ask for more!
It was much easier to persuade the two of them than expected. Mu Qing didn''t use any of the words he had prepared.
The three of them had
a great meal, and Zhao Anan was the only one who was kept in the dark.
Zhao Anan had been in a bad mood recently. She had a bad rtionship with Mu Qing again.
Mu Qing seemed to be angry this time and didn''te tofort her.
She didn''t have any reason to ask Mu Qing tofort her, but she felt uneasy when Mu Qing didn''t show up. What if Mu Qing really ignored her?
Moreover, she couldn''t go out to y. It was so boring to stay at home all day!
She was carrying a white kitten in her arms. Unfortunately, the originally cute kitten was almost featherless after being pinched by her!
Chapter 701: a stunning appearance
Chapter 701: a stunning appearance
Both grandma and mom had gone out, leaving Zhao Anan alone at home. She felt so empty inside the big vi.
Zhao Anan now knew that the photos and the marriage certificate she had received were all yang Muyan''s means to drive a wedge between her and Mu Qing.
And she had actually foolishly fallen for it!
Zhao Anan was annoyed. She felt that she had let Mu Qing down. Her first reaction was to doubt him instead of believing him. She had even scolded him so harshly. No wonder he was angry.
Yang Muyan was not a good person!
Zhao Anan cursed her eight hundred times and Mu Qing nine hundred times in her heart before she felt much better. Then, she went to have lunch with a smile.
The next day, Zhao Anan was released from her "house arrest". The olddy allowed her to go in and out of family MU''s Hospital, but not anywhere else.
Zhao Anan was so surprised that her jaw almost dropped."Grandma, why? Didn''t you forbid me from going to family MU''s Hospital? Aren''t you afraid that I will see Mu Qing?"
The situation had changed too quickly, and she couldn''t ept it in a short time!
"This is a decision I had to make for the sake of your health." The olddy said without changing her expression. Mu Qing has developed a new anti-cancer drug. The first batch of patients had a very good effect. He wants to give you a physical test before taking the drug, in case you have an immune reaction in the future. I even shamelessly begged him to give you some medicine to recuperate your body. "
Mu Qing had already told Zhao Anan about the development of the new drug, so she didn''t get suspicious.
She didn''t know much about medical problems, so she felt that it was normal to do a pre-medication physical test.
She was so happy that she could go out for some fresh air and see Mu Qing. Who cares about the test?
The summer vacation of University of X would be over in a few days and she would be going back to continue her life as the principal. She would be very busy by then. Zhao Anan was so happy that she could not sleep at all when she saw Mu Qing.
She realized that the more she did not see Mu Qing, the more she would miss him. When Mu Qing was by her side every day, she did not think that he was important. When he pampered her and coaxed her every day, she did not feel happy.
But now, she couldn''t sleep because of Mu Qing, which was unbelievable.
Could distance really produce beauty?
Zhao Anan didn''t know how far she was, but she did know that she had two dark circles under her eyes after getting up this morning. She looked terrible.
This was the first time in Zhao Anan''s life that she paid attention to her own appearance and image.
She valued Mu Qing more than ever. Shangguan ning''s series of nning and coercion had enlightened her in some aspects.
She took a shower and cleaned herself up. She was wearing a blue id chiffon shirt, white cr
opped pants, and a pair of white brogues. She had short hair and looked like a college student who had just entered the University.
.
The way she dressed attracted the attention of the olddy of the Zhao family. Sheughed at her and said, "You''re already 28 years old and you''re still pretending to be 18? do you think Mu Qing doesn''t know when you were born?"
Zhao Anan was not affected by the olddy''s words at all. She was in a good mood today and made a face at the olddy."Grandma, you''re just jealous of my beauty! Hmph, I won''t argue with you. You and my mother definitely weren''t as good-looking as me when you were young. I''ve surpassed my master! Sigh, I really have no choice. She''s so good-looking that I''m embarrassed to go out on the streets, in case those people feel inferior and hit their heads against the wall!"
The olddy was amused by her shamelessness and poked her forehead.""Your mother and I are the most mature people. How did we raise such a mischievous monkey like you?"
Zhao Anan snorted and hopped into family Zhao''s luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom. She asked the driver to send her to family MU''s Hospital.
Zhao Anan didn''t think there was anything good about her family''s car.
Ever since her financial situation was "punished" by the olddy, she realized that it was really a pleasure to sit in her own car!
Look, this aura! Not only was it a luxurious andfortable car, but there was also a professional driver. Most importantly, she didn''t have to spend a single cent!
The Rolls-Royce drove directly into the main gate of family MU''s Hospital. The eye-catching "A88888" on the license te made everyone in the hospital look at it.
The crowd couldn''t help but hold their breath, wanting to see whose car it was.
The door of the driver''s seat opened and a chauffeur in a suit got out. He then opened the back door and said respectfully,""Young miss, we''ve arrived at the hospital."
When they saw that it was Zhao Anan who got out of the car, all the doctors and nurses in the hospital were shocked.
Everyone here knew Zhao Anan. She was the head of the hospital''s sweetheart and Mu Qing had spoiled her so much that everyone knew who she was.
But no one knew Zhao Anan''s real identity. She was always slovenly and careless. Everyone in the hospital thought that she was from an ordinary family. They could not believe that she was in such a luxurious car and had a chauffeur.
However, the Rolls-Royce didn''t leave. The driver was still in the car, waiting for Zhao Anan toe back.
Everything they had seen was real!
Zhao Anan''s family background was not ordinary at all!
The female doctors and nurses who used to say that Zhao Anan was not good enough for Mu Qing all shut up.
Zhao Anan didn''t feel that she was any different today. She was used to sitting in Rolls Royces and didn''t think it was a big deal. Her cousin Jing Yichen had way more Rolls Royces than her and they were all sle
eping in the garage!
She had never thought that someone would be able to determine her identity through a car.
When she saw the doctors, nurses, and some patients staring at her, she thought that it was because she was dressed so well that she had surprised them!
Zhao Anan was dressed up very well today. She was 1.7 meters tall, with a trace of girlish charm on her face. The White cropped pants on her showed her good points. The light blue chiffon shirt made her look lively.
Of course, people didn''t look at her because of her beauty, but because of the car and the eye-catching license te number that sent her here.
Chapter 702: Take off your clothes
Chapter 702: Take off your clothes
Mu Qing had been waiting for Zhao Anan in the office for more than an hour. He had been standing by the window and staring at her since she was admitted into the hospital.
Mu Qing felt rxed when he saw that she was dressed like a young girl next door.
After waiting for almost ten minutes, there was a knock on the door.
This girl, when did her personality change? she even knew how to knock!
Didn''t she always barge in like a gust of wind?
Mu Qing walked to the door and waited there with a faint smile on his face, but he didn''t say "pleasee in."
Zhao Anan knocked on the door again, but there was still no sound. She couldn''t help but feel suspicious.
Was he not here?
No way. Mu Qing had already made an appointment with her to do a drug immunity test. Had he forgotten?
She couldn''t wait any longer and pulled the door open to enter.
However, the moment she opened the door, she fell into an embrace with a faint medicinal scent.
Mu Qing hugged her with one hand and closed the door with the other. He chuckled and said,"My luck is pretty good today, someone came to throw himself into my arms right after the door opened!"
Zhao Anan pushed him away and said in a neutral tone,"Doctor mu, I''m here to see a doctor today.| F * ck, you should find another patient, I''m not going to keep youpany!"
Mu Qing touched his chin and said,"Oh, I''m a doctor today! I''ll do a routine examinationter. You can''t refuse. "
Zhao Anan actually regretted pushing him away. She had done it subconsciously. In the past, she would always push him away when Mu Qing hugged her like this. She had never felt reluctant to part with him.
But after she pushed Mu Qing away today, she felt empty inside, as if she could not bear to part with the warmth of his arms and the faint smell of medicine.
But she couldn''t bring herself to rub herself into his embrace.
"It''s just a routine examination, why should I refuse? Unless there''s a problem with your routine inspection!"
Zhao Anan sat down on a chair and looked at Mu Qing."Where is the examination? right here?"
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows and said,"I didn''t know you were so eager." Of course, you can''t do the examination here. Let''s go, I''ll take you to the examination room. "
Zhao Anan followed him indifferently. The two of them entered the examination room one after the other and Mu Qing locked the door.
Zhao Anan didn''t pay much attention to it either. Her attention was all on the equipment.
Mu Qing turned on all the instruments and let Zhao Anan lie on a small bed.
He hade up with this excuse to inject the ovum growth hormone into Zhao Anan and then take it out when the egg cell had matured. It was not an entirely excuse.
He could make a detailed analysis of Zhao Anan''s physical condition so that he could give her the most appropriate amount of medicine ording to her condition in case her condition rpsed.
Mu Qing had done everything he could for Zhao Anan.
After turning on the instrument, Mu Qing washed his hands with a wash-free medical hand wash and put o
n a pair of thintex gloves. Then he turned to Zhao Anan and said,"Take off your clothes,"
Zhao Anan''s eyes widened. Take off his clothes? Wasn''t this a drug test? Why are you taking off your clothes!"
"Am I the doctor or are you the doctor? Just take it off when I tell you to, which part of your body haven''t I seen before?"
Zhao Anan pouted."Fine. Take it off. If you dare to do anything, I will shout that you are molesting me." Let everyone in the hospital know what kind of person you are!"
.
She had taken off all her clothes except for her underwear, but Mu Qing was still not satisfied."Strip naked! You''re not allowed to wear a single piece!"
Zhao Anan was so angry that she clenched her teeth. But seeing his serious face, she had to take off the rest of her clothes too. But she had been covering her chest with her hands and her face was a little red.
Seeing her naked body, Mu Qing''s eyes darkened and his breathing became a little erratic.
It was really strange. He had seen many women''s bodies and examined many women, but he had never had such an impulse for other women.
But Zhao Anan still had a strong reaction when he saw her body, even though he had seen her many times and even had sex with her many times.
Mu Qing forced himself not to think about her beauty and started to massage her chest.
Zhao Anan immediately screamed,"bastard mu, what are you doing?!" You''re a hooligan| Whoosh!"
Mu Qing''s face darkened.
Could she not shout so loudly? Were they afraid that no one would know what they were doing inside?
"Shut up and don''t move! I''ll press on your chest, Tell Me Where It Hurts. "
"I''m the son| There''s a problem with my womb, but there''s nothing wrong with my chest. Why are you pressing on my chest?"
"I''ve already said that this is just a routine examination. Don''t shout and lie down properly! Other people also do these examinations, but none of them made such a loud noise. Be good and don''t affect my judgment. "
As Mu Qing said this, he started to put more force on Zhao Anan''s chest.
Zhao Anan was not convinced, but she didn''t know if it was a routine check.
She wondered if Mu Qing had to massage other women''s breasts often.| Ministry?
Wasn''t this a little too ... Alluring?
Zhao Anan''s heart ached and she said,"How many women''s breasts have you massaged?"
Mu Qing said without even lifting his eyes,"I can''t count it anymore. It''s already in the thousands."
"So many!" Zhao Anan was stunned.
Mu Qing replied with a faint "hmm." He stared at Zhao Anan and felt that his blood was boiling.
How could he do that? he was quite normal when he was checking on others!
He simply did not look at it and continued to press it with his hands. He kept asking,"does it hurt here?"
After pressing his left chest, Mu Qing picked up a pen and lowered his head to record the situation.
Zhao Anan looked at the clear finger marks on her chest and then at Mu Qing, who was taking notes seriously. She couldn''t help but wonder if she had been too mean to him. &nbs
p;
She felt a little uneasy. Since Mu Qing had seen and touched so many women''s bodies, wouldn''t he feel strange? Or was it because he had touched too much and was already numb to women''s bodies?
Would he be numb to her too?
While Zhao Anan was making wild guesses in her mind, Mu Qing had already started to press her right chest.
When she was about to press a certain point, Zhao Anan suddenly cried out.
"What''s wrong, Anan?"Mu Qing asked nervously. Does it hurt here?"
As he spoke, he pressed the button again.
Zhao Anan gasped,""It hurts!"
Chapter 703: Its my money, Ill spend it however I want
Chapter 703: It''s my money, I''ll spend it however I want
Mu Qing scanned her body with a sophisticated instrument and then heaved a sigh of relief. Heforted her. "I''m fine. It''s just some hypersia. Don''t worry. "
Although he had kissed and touched her soft breasts countless times, this was the first time he had checked them so carefully.
Examining Zhao Anan was totally different from examining other women.
His heart ached when Zhao Anan cried out in pain. He was worried that she might have some other secret illness.
Mu Qing checked Zhao Anan''s body patiently. Zhao Anan felt ufortable when he checked her private part.
"I''m not investigating anymore! Quickly let go!"
Mu Qing''s voice was a little hoarse as he refused firmly,"No, I''m not done with the investigation yet. Don''t move!"
Only the heavens knew that this was definitely a form of torture for him!
"You''re a hooligan.| Buzzzzzz! You''re taking advantage of me!" Zhao Anan scolded him.
Mu Qing couldn''t help butugh,"if I really wanted to take advantage of you, would I need to wear gloves?" I''m just a doctor now. Miss, don''t think of the wrong thing, okay?"
Zhao Anan''s face was flushed and she was breathing fast. She looked like she couldn''t bear it anymore.
"Hurry up!" She gritted her teeth and snorted.
"Do you want to be faster?" Mu Qing deliberately misunderstood her. How fast is it?"
Zhao Anan kicked him on the shoulder in anger.
Mu Qing grabbed her slim legs and coaxed her gently."Be good, don''t make a fuss. It''ll be fine in a while."
Zhao Anan stopped making a fuss, but her face was getting redder and redder.
She didn''t know if Mu Qing did it on purpose, but she almost screamed.
After the manual check, Mu Qing was not at ease. He checked again with the instrument and then recorded all the data carefully for futureparison.
It was not until thest moment that Mu Qing injected the fast-Antle-growth hormone into Zhao Anan. He had calcted that Zhao Anan''s period woulde this afternoon or the next day, so the injection would be most effective at this time.
Zhao Anan looked at him in confusion."Why do you still need an injection?"
She curled up on the bed and looked at him pitifully with her bright eyes. Mu Qing''s heart softened and he couldn''t help but kiss her.
"It''s for testing. Don''t worry, it''ll be fine once a month, about three times. Remember to tell me if you feel ufortable after the injection. "
"Oh." Zhao Anan nodded, pouting.
She did not like injections, not because she was afraid of pain, but because she hated the feeling of being pricked by needles and injected with drugs.
In the past, during chemotherapy, she would be constantly stabbed, and the back of her hand would be full of needle holes and bruises. It was so painful that she couldn''t even sleep.
However, since it was used to treat illnesses, she would bear with it no matter how much she disliked it.
In this aspect, she was not a pretentious woman.
"From now on,e here once every two days. I want to record the detailed data of your body and make a table for analysis."
Mu Qing felt a little guilty for lying to Zhao Anan like that.
But Zhao Anan was so well-behaved today. S
he didn''t even suspect anything when she was getting the injection, which made him feel even guiltier.
.
Zhao Anan was very happy to hear that she coulde once every two days. She didn''t care about the injections anymore.
It would be great to have fun with Mu Qing instead of being locked up at home.
Seeing Mu Qing, she forgot all the unhappy things and only had him in her heart.
She could also feel that Mu Qing was not angry anymore. He had always been like this. If she did something wrong, Mu Qing would be angry for a short while, not more than a day, and then he woulde to her andfort her.
Their characters were very simr. They were both the kind of people who didn''t like to be calctive or hold grudges. They would remember the happy things and forget the unhappy things very quickly.
Zhao Anan had taken off her clothes very quickly, but she took a long time to put them on.
She had already finished her checkup and had been given an injection. She couldn''t continue to stay here.
However, no matter how much she dawned, she would still have to put on her clothes.
Mu Qing was turning off the equipment. Seeing her getting dressed and walking out, he grabbed her and pulled her into his arms."Where are you going? Don''t go, wait for me!"
Zhao Anan didn''t want to leave either, but she had to.
She was getting more and more conflicted.
She couldn''t leave Mu Qing, but she was also afraid that she might die one day and make Mu Qing happy.
"I''m going home. "
Zhao Anan said in a low voice and tried to get out of Mu Qing''s arms.
Mu Qing could not let her go so easily.
He held Zhao Anan''s wrist with one hand and packed up the documents with the other hand. He put them into a leather bag and held Zhao Anan''s hand with one hand."Open the door, let''s go."
Zhao Anan couldn''t get rid of him, so she followed him out.
Mu Qing didn''t leave the file in the hospital, but got into the car with it. All the information was Zhao Anan''s private data and he didn''t want anyone else to see it.
Of course, Zhao Anan was also forced into the car. The Rolls-Royce of the Zhao family was driven back to the Zhao family.
"You drove my driver away. Who will drive me home?" Zhao Anan was very displeased. I don''t have the money to take a taxi!"
Mu Qing sat in the driver''s seat and fastened the seat belt for Zhao Anan carefully. He lowered his head to kiss the tip of her nose and then took out his wallet and threw it to her. "I''ll spend as much as I want! Also, I''ll take you home, why would I need a chauffeur!"
Zhao Anan''s eyes sparkled at the sight of money. She grabbed Mu Qing''s wallet and opened it. There was a huge pile of red notes in it.
Sheughed out loud and patted Mu Qing''s shoulder."You are more proactive than Zheng Jing! He''s so stingy, I have to Rob him to give me the money every time!"
Mu Qing was speechless.
Could Zheng Jing bepared to him?
Mu Qing cursed in his heart,"Zheng Jing gave you the money to cooperate with Shangguan ning''s act. He didn''t give you the money sincerely. I was the one who paid for the money."
He turned around and found it funny when he saw Zhao Anan counting the money happily.
''Silly girl
, she''s so happy just because she''s given some money. It''s all thanks to the Zhao family''s wealth. If the Zhao family didn''t have money, she would have robbed them.''
As Mu Qing was driving towards the supermarket, Zhao Anan was counting the money in the passenger seat.
There were more than three thousand Yuan in Mu Qing''s wallet, which made Zhao Anan very happy. She counted it several times and made sure that it was three thousand seven hundred and fifty-two Yuan and one cent.
Then, she put all the three thousand Yuan into her bag and put the ten-cent coin back into Mu Qing''s wallet. She threw it to him."Alright, I''ll reward you with that one hair!"
Chapter 704: Youre that thirsty?
Chapter 704: You''re that thirsty?
As long as Zhao Anan was happy, he would give her 30000 Yuan, or even 3000000 Yuan, without hesitation.
He had never cared about Zhao Anan''s spending before.
Of course, Mu Qing would not give Zhao Anan so much money now, or she would run away with the money.
With a smile on his face, he held the steering wheel with one hand and pinched Zhao Anan''s chubby cheeks with the other. He said in the tone of a eunuch,""Thank you, mother!"
"You''re wee! Little Qing, kneel and pay your respects!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The two of them chatted andughed along the way and soon arrived at the supermarket.
After parking the car, they entered the supermarket. Mu Qing held Zhao Anan''s hand tightly and led her inside.
Zhao Anan was holding a "huge sum of money" in her arms and looked at everyone like a thief.
She looked left and right, and said in dissatisfaction,""What are we doing in the supermarket? There were so many people here, there must be a thief! Let''s go, it''s not safe here!"
Mu Qing didn''t know whether tough or cry. He held her waist with one hand to stop her from running out and pushed a shopping cart with the other hand.
"There''s nothing to eat at home. I''m here to buy something and I''ll cook something for you when I get home. Are you hungry?"
"Why would I be hungry? I have money!"
"What can you do with that three thousand Yuan? it''s not even enough for you to buy a piece of clothing. Let''s go, help me pick some fruits and vegetables. You should keep your money, I''ll make it for you for free. "
It sounded good and Zhao Anan was very happy. She started to pick out the items excitedly.
Seeing that Mu Qing had bought two packs of sanitary pads, Zhao Anan looked at him with her eyes wide open."Who did you buy this for?"
"You''re my only woman, who do you think I bought it for? Do you think I need this for myself? Stupid!"
"But I don''t need you to buy this, I have plenty at home! It''s not like I''m going to use this at your house ..."
"That might not be the case."
Mu Qing smiled mysteriously. He held her hand and pushed the shopping cart forward slowly.
The supermarket was full of people, and it was a lively scene.
Mu Qing and Zhao Anan walked in hand in hand. He suddenly felt that he had lived with Zhao Anan for many years. At this moment, he was picking out food and drinks naturally. He felt that this scene was very familiar, as if it had happened in his previous life.
Zhao Anan also liked shopping with Mu Qing. She found it interesting and romantic.
Her heart skipped a beat for a moment, and she almost said,"let''s get married."
If they could get married and have a home of their own, they would definitely go to the supermarket together often in the future. They would buy a lot of daily necessities and all kinds of fresh ingredients, and then go home together to cook.
A beautiful life seemed to be within reach.
Zhao Anan stared at Mu Qing''s handsome side profile. She couldn''t help but want to kiss him when she saw his perfect jawline.
However, she still restrained herself. The way she was now was already very good.
She didn''t know how long she could enjoy this happiness. Maybe a week, maybe a month.
She was immersed in this happiness and could not
extricate herself. She only hoped that she could live a little longer.
Mu Qing didn''t notice that Zhao Anan was staring at him. He was busy picking out Zhao Anan''s favorite preserved fruit.
Zhao Anan turned around and found that many women were looking at Mu Qing.
She lifted her chin proudly. Hmph, What are you looking at? can''t you see that This Man Is Mine?
In order to dere her ownership, Zhao Anan held Mu Qing''s arm. Mu Qing didn''t know why she was so close to him all of a sudden, but as long as she was willing to be close to him, it was a good thing. He gave her a kiss on the lips as a reward, not minding the fact that there were people around.
Zhao Ananughed in her heart. She had just wanted to show off to those women who were coveting Mu Qing when Mu Qing gave her a kiss. So obedient!
Look, all those women are so envious and jealous!
Zhao Anan was getting jealous, but Mu Qing was protecting her and picking out the food carefully.
Mu Qing had bought a lot of daily necessities in the supermarket after more than an hour.
He ate alone and led a simple life. After all, work in the hospital was very busy and tiring.
Sometimes, they had to stand in the operating theater for seven or eight hours to perform a surgery. Sometimes, they even had to work for more than ten hours.
When he got home, he didn''t even want to eat. He just wanted to lie down and rest. He didn''t have the energy to cook.
But once he had Zhao Anan, no matter how busy he was, no matter howplicated her food was, he would never find it troublesome or tiring.
Making Zhao Anan happy was his greatest satisfaction.
After paying the bill at the supermarket, they drove back to the apartment. Mu Qing started to prepare the ingredients while Zhao Anan was eating the dried kiwis that he had just bought and watching him cook with great interest.
"Have some snacks after dinner." Mu Qing stopped her from eating more.
Zhao Anan red at him unwillingly when he took the dried fruits away. Then she started to make a fuss about cooking.
Zhao Anan was a smart girl, but she only had three minutes of enthusiasm in everything she did, so she had nothing to show.
Since she was a foodie, she was more concerned about food and could cook well.
The afternoon passed quickly as they cooked, ate, and washed the dishes in a lively manner.
After a while, Zhao Anan''s stomach started to hurt. She went to the bathroom and was dumbfounded.
My period is here!
Should he be here today?
Zhao Anan scratched her head. She couldn''t remember when it hadest month.
No wonder Mu Qing had bought her sanitary pads.
Fortunately, she was discovered in time. She was wearing a pair of white pants today. If she hadn''t been discovered, wouldn''t she have been embarrassed to death?
Mu Qing knocked on the door of the bathroom.""Young miss, are you nning to stay inside today?"
Zhao Anan''s face turned red and she shouted at him,"Bring out the things you bought today! I''m doing that!"
Mu Qing burst intoughter and stopped teasing her. He opened the door and gave her a pack of sanitary pads."Muddleheaded worm, you can''t even remember your own date."
"Get out!" Zhao Anan snatched it from him.
Of course, Mu Qing wouldn''t stay inside. He closed the door of the bathroom for Zhao Anan and waited for her outside.
When she came out, he picked Zhao Anan up in his arms and strode to the bedroom.
Zhao Anan''s face changed. She poked his face with a finger."Hey, hey, hey, you can''t be that hungry, right? I''m already like this, and you still want to do that?"
What this and that!
What kind of person did they take him for!
Mu Qing patted her butt unhappily. "You''re thinking too much! I''m not that hungry! Let''s go rest for a while, and I''ll take you somewhere in the afternoon. "
Chapter 705-are you a demon?
Chapter 705-are you a demon?
"What ce?" Zhao Anan was very curious.
"You''ll know when you get there,"Mu Qing smiled.
The more Mu Qing didn''t want to tell her, the more curious she became. She kept asking,"What is this ce?"
"If you perform wellter, I can consider telling you in advance."
"What do you mean by good performance?"
"It''s to serve me until I''mfortable, just like how you used to serve me,"
"Bah! Bastard mu, you''re shameless! I''m already in this state and you''re still thinking of taking advantage of me. I want to go home, let me go!"
At first, Mu Qing had not intended to do anything to Zhao Anan.
She wasn''t feeling well today, and her physical condition was special. Of course, he wouldn''t be so brutal.
But Zhao Anan kept moving around in his arms. She touched him here and then poked him there.
Mu Qing had no fire in the beginning, but she had managed to make him angry.
He gritted his teeth and pressed her under him, sucking her lips until they were slightly red and swollen. He said in a low voice,""Are you a demon?"
"I didn''t do anything. You are the one who is not calm." Zhao Anan widened her eyes innocently.
"You''re touching me all over. Even if I''m a monk with a pure heart and few desires, I''ll still be touched by you. Besides, I wanted to eat you in the first ce!"
Mu Qing said as he undid the crystal buttons of her chiffon shirt. Her snow-white and plump body was wrapped in her white underwear. Mu Qing almost had a nosebleed from the shocking scene.
He lowered his head and bit her. Zhao Anan cried out in pain.
Her voice was charming and charming, which made Mu Qing''s blood boil.
It would be good if he could not eat Zhao Anan up.
"Mu Qing, you bastard! Stop it! It hurts!"
Mu Qing''s bite slowed down a little, but he had no intention of stopping.
Zhao Anany in Mu Qing''s armszily and didn''t want to talk after half an hour of being tormented by him.
Mu Qing''s breath was still unstable. Not only did he not feel relieved, but he felt even more ufortable.
"Little Vixen," he said helplessly. Then, he held her in his arms and coaxed her to sleep.
Zhao Anan put her arms around Mu Qing''s waist and asked,"Have you ever liked another woman?"
Mu Qing was startled. He looked down at Zhao Anan and said seriously,"No, I didn ''t!"
"So you''re not tempted at all when you check up on those women every day?"
Mu Qing finally understood why Zhao Anan had asked him if he liked anyone else.
He couldn''t help butugh, and he sucked her delicate pink earlobe hard as a punishment.
"If I''m tempted every time I check on a patient, if I''m tempted every time I check on ten patients a day, if I''m tempted every day, my heart would be broken! I''m a doctor and I''ve seen so many people''s bodies. I''m used to it. Everyone looks the same to me. I thought you already knew. Why are you only asking me this now?"
Zhao Anan didn''t answer Mu Qing''s question. She couldn''t tell him that s
he didn''t feel anything when he touched other women, but now she would be jealous.
.
This was Mu Qing''s profession and Zhao Anan could understand it. She was just jealous when she thought that he would do the same thing to other women.
"What''s different about me?"
If there was no difference, why was Mu Qing so ... Passionate every time he saw her? his love for her was so obvious.
But women are all simr, they all look the same! How could she be different from others? it wasn''t like she had three breasts ...
Mu Qing''s hands were still touching Zhao Anan''s smooth body as he whispered in her ear,"Yes, I am also curious. What is so different about you that I can''t forget you? it must be because there is only one Zhao Anan in this world."
Zhao Anan didn''t want to get to the bottom of it. There were no exnations for what she liked or disliked.
But she was still happy to hear what Mu Qing had said.
He said that there was only one Zhao Anan in the world!
She was his only one.
Zhao Anan fell asleep in Mu Qing''s warm arms contentedly. She had not slept much the night before and had slept a little too much today. When she woke up, it was already five in the afternoon.
Mu Qing''s clear and melodious voice sounded above her head."Little demon, you''re awake? Perhaps I should call you littlezy pig. You''ve been sleeping for so long, but you can''t even be woken up. "
Zhao Anan stretched herself and didn''t want to move.
She held Mu Qing''s waist subconsciously, as if she had been living with him for a long time.
The words ''let''s get married'' lingered in her heart for a long time, and she almost said it again.
Zhao Anan felt that ever since she was forced to not meet Mu Qing and Mu Qing was forced to go on blind dates with other women, her desire to marry Mu Qing had be stronger and stronger.
Before, when no one forced her, she didn''t care about anything and just wanted to stay at a distance from Mu Qing.
She had believed that she would not lose Mu Qing.
But now, seeing how popr Mu Qing was and how many women were throwing themselves at him, and how old master mu was urging him to find a woman who could give birth well and get married, she felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.
No one would wait for you forever. If you wanted something, you had to give.
Mu Qing had given up on her before, because she had not only rejected his proposal, but had also disappeared from his life for a long time.
There was no doubt that Mu Qing loved her.
However, if she didn''t cherish this love and wantonly squandered the feelings between them, then he would be exhausted one day and lose the confidence to live together with her.
She was struggling on the edge of life and death, but she was also wandering on the edge of Love.
She was sure that she could not forget Mu Qingpletely before she died.
Her feelings for Mu Qing had been carved deep into her bones. Unless she died, these feelings would not disappear with her.
She liked the peace and happiness she had now. She just wanted to keep it as it was and didn''t
want to disrupt it.
"Didn''t you want to take me to a ce? Where are you going?"
Her voice was calm, but her body was rxed and her heart was happy.
If she were to die now, she would be satisfied.
The only thing she could not bear to part with was Mu Qing.
Mu Qing kissed her forehead and said with a smile, "You''ve been sleeping for the entire afternoon. I wanted to bring you there, but now I can ''t. What should I do?"
Zhao Anan, who was always interested in new things, said unexpectedly, "It''s okay. It''s fine if you don''t want to go. I''m fine now."
Chapter 706
Chapter 706
Many things about Zhao Anan were changing bit by bit.
Mu Qing had already sensed it.
She had never liked to stay at home in the past. She loved to y and always wanted to go out. She would rather go out and fight with the hooligans than stay at home and talk to him.
In the past, she had never cared about his feelings. She was willful and willful. She would go wherever she wanted to go and wear whatever she liked.
But today, she was willing to stay with him at home and was willing to wear the blue shirt he liked.
When did she start to change?
It seemed to have started when Shangguan ning had United everyone to force her.
In the past few months, she had grown up rapidly. In front of him, she was still that lively and cheerful girl who liked to jump around. However, in front of others, she had grown up and matured. She was no longer like before, speaking and doing things without any scruples.
He loved and cherished Zhao Anan even more.
Mu Qing caressed her smooth and delicate face and said gently,"You can go at night even if you didn''t make it this afternoon. But I''ll have to ask Grandma first. You didn''te home today, so she must be worried."
Hearing that, Zhao Anan became happy."Alright, let''s go! What kind of ce is it that you have to take me there?"
"It''s an important ce. You must go and see it with your own eyes, in case you think I''m lying to you."
The more he exined, the more curious Zhao Anan became.
Did she think that he was lying to her? She didn ''t!
What was it? So mysterious, Hmph!
In fact, for Zhao Anan, it didn''t matter where she went, as long as Mu Qing was with her.
She had been through too little in the past, so she didn''t understand. But now she understood. Without Mu Qing, no matter how beautiful a ce was, it would be lonely and cold. But with Mu Qing, no matter how cold it was, it would be warm.
It took her so many years to suddenly understand that two people needed each other''spany.
Five or Sixo'' clock, it was time for dinner.
Mu Qing was wearing a white shirt. He was standing in front of the anvil and cutting the potatoes skillfully.
The soft light shone on his handsome face, making him look as gentle as a piece of Jade.
Zhao Anan suddenly thought of one word: Warm man!
He had a cheerful and gentle personality and rarely lost his temper. Unless she shouted to leave him, he would always have a bright smile on his face, making people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze.
He had superb medical skills and was good at saving dying lives.
His cooking skills were extraordinary, and the dishes he made were delicious and nutritious. He even cleaned the house without a speck of dust.
He was meticulous and considerate. He remembered her period clearly and helped her buy sanitary products in advance.
Zhao Anan leaned against the door and looked at the handsome man who was busy working under the light. Why didn''t he have any shorings?
The only w seemed to be that he was too infatuated? He had set his eyes on her and refused to let go.
Mu Qing had just finished cutting the potatoes and was about to cut the carrots when he s
.
aw Zhao Anan giggling at him. She looked as if she had just picked up a hundred Yuan and was afraid that someone would take it away from her.
She might be making up something about him in her little head again!
Mu Qing put a small piece of carrot into Zhao Anan''s mouth with a smile. Zhao Anan bit it without thinking. She didn''t realize until she swallowed it that she was eating the carrot that she had never liked.
"Don''t you sometimes get blurry vision at night? Little Night blind, eat more carrots, you''ll feel better. "
She had swallowed it and couldn''t spit it out, so she had to admit defeat.
The dinner was very sumptuous and Zhao Anan''s stomach was full.
Mu Qing took her for a walk downstairs and called the olddy of the Zhao family to tell her that Zhao Anan would be homete.
When Zhao Anan felt better, he drove her to the suburbs.
The air in the suburbs was very fresh, and the environment was particrly quiet and beautiful.
Mu Qing stopped the car in front of arge white building. He got out of the car and walked in with Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan''s sharp eyes caught sight of an inconspicuous sign at the door that read: At family MU''s Medical Research Institute.
She was a little confused. Why did Mu Qing bring her to the Research Institute?
She had thought that there would be some romantic surprise, but there was none. This liar!
She criticized Mu Qing in her heart. Then she realized that Mu Qing had spoiled her. She had gotten used to all the surprises that he had given her. Now that there were no more romantic ones, she even despised them.
She despised herself in her heart and then followed Mu Qing into the institution.
Zhao Anan had been in and out of family MU''s Hospital many times, but this was the first time she hade to family MU''s research Institute.
The area was at least a few hundred acres. Although it was built in the suburbs, it must have cost a lot of money. With the strength of the MU family, it was impossible to build it alone.
Even though Zhao Anan didn''t know much about money, she knew that family Jing must have invested a lot in it.
Mu Qing had always wanted to expand his Research Institute, but he had no money, so he had to target yang Muyan.
After Jing Yichen had provided him with a huge amount of money, he had finally gotten out of his misery. He had not only expanded the Research Institute, but also renovated family MU''s Hospital, building the most advanced sterile operating room and the sterile intensive care unit.
The Research Institute was brightly lit, and many of the researchers inside were busy. They still didn''t get off work and went back to rest.
They all greeted Mu Qing when they saw him, and Mu Qing responded with a smile.
After entering his own research room, Mu Qing and Zhao Anan changed into sterile clothes. They opened a door and walked in.
The space inside was veryrge, and the temperature was very low. The wide space was divided into more than a dozen small rooms.
Mu Qing and Zhao Anan looked around the rooms one by one.
"These are the white mice used for the experiment. The ones in this room are all healthy and have not been infected with any diseases. They can live for about one to three years. They''re easy to raise,
have a high reproduction rate, and have a high gic purity. Their metabolic types, physiological and pathology are also simr to us humans. There are very little differences between individuals, which is convenient for parallel observation of experimental results ..."
Zhao Anan looked at them curiously and suddenly understood why Mu Qing had brought her here.
She followed Mu Qing into every room quietly. There were mice in every room. Some were healthy, while some had cancer and had only a few days left.
Zhao Anan felt sorry for the little ones. They were all artificially bred and had to sacrifice themselves for scientific research since birth.
Chapter 707: The best gift
Chapter 707: The best gift
Zhao Anan was full of sympathy and begged Mu Qing,"Can I raise one?"
Men and women''s logic and psychological state werepletely different.
Mu Qing liked small animals too, but these white mice were specially fed for experiments. They were just mice, so he had no reason to feel bad about them.
Seeing that Zhao Anan wanted to raise one, he refused without thinking."No, you can ''t. First, they carried all kinds of bacteria and viruses, which were likely to be contagious. Second, their lifespans are very short, at most two to three years. When they die, you''ll definitely cry. "
Alright, that seemed to make sense.
If the little thing that she had raised for a few years suddenly died, she would really be very sad.
She followed Mu Qing around with a pout, but soon her attention was drawn away.
There were thousands of white mice here, and every one of them was numbered. Their birth, illness, diet, medication, and so on were recorded in detail.
In some of the rooms, the workers were busy cleaning the garbage and recording the data of the mice. They all greeted Mu Qing and Zhao Anan warmly when they saw them.
"Dean mu, is this your girlfriend? She''s so pretty, how did she fall for you?"
"That''s right, Dean mu. This is the first time I''ve seen you bring a girl here! Why is it that all the animals in the Research Institute are male? now that there''s a beauty, everyone''s even more motivated to work!"
"Dean mu, you should recruit more female researchers to participate in our research and development work. By then, the efficiency will definitely double! We single men will have a ce to settle down!"
Everyone was talking andughing. Mu Qing was also talking to them with a smile. Zhao Anan just stood beside Mu Qing andughed, but did not interrupt.
She was usually a very active and talkative person, but recently, she had changed a lot in dealing with people.
She would not be as insensible as she used to be when they were outside. She would not be rude to Mu Qing and say whatever she wanted to say. She now understood that she did not need to say anything in front of Mu Qing''s friends and colleagues. She just needed to stand quietly by Mu Qing''s side.
In this way, Mu Qing would have more prestige in front of his colleagues.
Zhao Anan was polite and well mannered. She was also polite and well-mannered, which surprised Mu Qing a little. But the researchers had a good impression of her and kept praising her.
Their drug research and development had made a breakthrough, and in the past two months, they had also achieved very good results on volunteers. Everyone''s face was full of joy.
The research and development of every drug was a huge project that required the research and experimentation of researchers day and night.
Zhao Anan held Mu Qing''s hands tightly.
Mu Qing was definitely the chief supervisor of the research and development of the medicine, and his work was the heaviest and most exhausting.
He didn''t know how much blood, sweat, and tears he had put in behind her back, but he had never heard himin.
Her heart was touched yet heavy.
If her illness could not be cured, all of Mu Qing''s efforts would be in vain. Would he break down?
When she had first arrived, she hadined that Mu Qing had lied to her and that he had not prepared a romantic surprise for her. But it turned out that he had prepared the best gift!
He must have been preparing for many, many years!
After the tour of theb, Mu Qing took Zhao Anan to the bacteria control room, where active cancer cells could be seen.
After that, they went to the pharmaceutical Department.
.
There were also many people busy in the pharmaceutical Department. Although mechanical work could be realized now, many medicinal materials still needed to be processed manually.
The anti-cancer drugs developed by Mu Qing''s team were still in the experimental stage, so they had not been produced inrge quantities, only a small part of them.
Mu Qing took Zhao Anan to his office after visiting several departments.
In the office, Barton was analyzing thetest patient data with his thick sses. He did not even notice Mu Qing when he came in.
Mu Qing didn''t interrupt him, but just introduced him to Zhao Anan in a low voice.
He took off his sterile clothes and Zhao Anan ''s, and walked out with her slowly.
"Barton is a workaholic. He only sleeps a few hours a day, and he spends all his time researching and developing drugs. He''s half the reason why the drug has made such a major breakthrough. Do you know why you''re so desperate?"
Zhao Anan shook her head slightly.
"Because his wife and daughter both died of cancer."
Mu Qing''s words made Zhao Anan feel as if her heart had been hit hard.
She couldn''t help but hold Mu Qing''s hand tightly.
That was what she was most afraid of. She was afraid that she would die first after she married Mu Qing. She was even more afraid that if she had a child, the child would not live long after inheriting her illness.
Mu Qing knew what she was worried about. He held her hand andforted her."Anan, don''t be afraid. You see, everyone here is busy developing all kinds of new medicines. The diseases that couldn''t be cured in the past might be cured in the future. I brought you here today to let you see with your own eyes that our research and development work has made great progress and sess. Even if your illness rpses, I have a great deal of confidence that I can cure you. "
Zhao Anan had suffered a huge blow today. She was in a daze.
The illness that she had been worried about for so long, the illness that was so difficult to cure, could it really be cured?
She had a terminal illness!
What was a terminal illness? It was an illness that couldn''t be cured!
When Mu Qing told her that her disease could be cured, she felt that she must be dreaming.
She was still suspicious. It was not because she did not believe in Mu Qing''s medical skills, but because of the fear and helplessness she felt towards the disease.
Zhao Anan couldn''t believe itpletely, but she did have a glimmer of hope.
She finally understood why Mu Qing had brought her here and why he had said that she had to see it with her own eyes to believe that he was not lying to her.
She followed Mu Qing back to the car and hugged him.
"Mu Qi
ng, thank you!"
She buried her head in his chest and said in a very, very soft voice.
Mu Qing smiled and stroked her short hair."Do we need to be so polite? Saving you is the same as saving myself. Without you, what''s the point of me living alone?"
Zhao Anan raised her head and looked into his eyes."No, even if I''m not here, you''ll have to live well."
Mu Qing smiled and didn''t continue the topic.
How could he not have her?
They would always be together. When the old man sessfully cultivated the embryo, maybe they would be aplete family of three!
Chapter 708-son knows how to talk (1)
Chapter 708-son knows how to talk (1)
Medical science was constantly improving and developing. In the future, others would definitely develop more and better drugs.
Didn''t the United States already have anti-cancer vines? Getting a vine when there were no cancer cells could prevent cancer.
Although there were very few types of vines, this also proved that this was not an insurmountable problem.
But even if he had another way to protect Zhao Anan, he could not force Zhao Anan to marry him.
He liked her in his heart and didn''t want to force her to do anything.
He was different from Shangguan ning. The reason why Shangguan ning could force Zhao Anan was because they were best friends.
But he was Zhao Anan''s man. As a man, he couldn''t bear to see his woman suffer.
Everyone had different thoughts and he would not force Zhao Anan to ept his ideas. He respected her own will more than anything.
Mu Qing drove Zhao Anan back to the Zhao family''s house and then went back to his own apartment.
Every time he left Zhao Anan and went home alone, he would feel very lonely.
The song was right. I''m not thinking about you because I''m lonely. I''m lonely because I miss you.
As a matter of fact, Mu Qing wanted to marry Zhao Anan more than anyone else, so that he would not have to sleep and wake up alone.
They had been able to see each other every other day for the past month, which had satisfied Mu Qing.
It was time for the school to start soon. Zhao Anan started her principal career again.
She had been traveling between the school and the hospital. Sometimes, she would fight with the stubborn old men at school, and sometimes, she would argue with Mu Qing. She had a fulfilling and happy life.
Shangguan ning knew that Zhao Anan had been seeing Mu Qing almost every day recently and she also knew the real reason.
Since it was for the sake of their next generation, Shangguan ning agreed with it.
This was Mu Qing''s trump card for Zhao Anan.
This was much more effective than all her ns and conspiracies!
But Shangguan ning didn''t give up on the n to make Zhao Anan and Mu Qing get married.
There was only onest step left. Although Mu Qing had destroyed a lot of the things that she had built in the beginning, it didn''t matter. Her efforts wouldn''t be in vain. After thest step waspleted, Zhao Anan would most likely go to Mu Qing and marry him.
The n to help the two get married was progressing slowly and Shangguan ning''s life was also very fulfilling.
She had not returned to work at Jingsheng yet, but she would bring Jing Rui to her caf from time to time. She would also go to Liyu Science & Technology to discuss the orientation and marketing n of thetest products with the key personnel of thepany.
Shangguan ning rarely left Jing Rui at home for nanny Yue to take care of. She would take Jing Rui with her most of the time. She was worried about leaving her son alone at home.
If she was really busy and could not take Jing Rui with her, she would let Jing Yichen take care of her son. Sometimes, when both of them were busy, she would send him to Jing zhongxiu or Jing Tianyuan.
Most of the affairs o
f family Jing had been handed over to Jing Yichen. Jing zhongxiu spent most of his time fishing and ying chess with Huang lihan. He was living like a god.
Jing Tianyuan had decided to stay at mu Wensheng''s ce. He had been eating and drinking for free, and had even gotten himself two sets of new clothes to wear. He had been eyeing the clothes that mu Wensheng''s daughter-inw had made for him, and now he was finally making a living.
Every time Shangguan ning sent Jing Rui to Jing Tianyuan''s care, it was the happiest time for the two old men.
Jing Rui was very obedient and sensible. He rarely cried, and most of the time he just sat there quietly and listened to others.
He was now seven and a half months old. He was very beautiful and very likable.
Shangguan ning was only in charge of the caf and Liyu Science & Technology, so she was not busy most of the time. She stayed at home these two days and taught Jing Rui how to talk. At night, when Jing Yichen got home from work, the family of three would go for a walk by the beach.
Jing Yichen got off work earlier today. As soon as he entered the door, Shangguan ning went up to him with Jing Rui in her arms and said with a smile,"Ruirui, dad is back!"
To Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen''s surprise, Jing Rui followed up with a clear voice,"Daddy!"
His voice was crisp and tender, and it could be heard clearly in the quiet living room.
Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other''s eyes. Apparently, they had not heard it wrong. Jing Rui had really called him father.
Jing Yichenughed out loud. Without even taking off his coat, he took Jing Rui into his arms and said,"Good son, call me that again! Call me daddy!"
Jing Rui looked at him for a while and called out,""Daddy!"
This time, it was even clearer than the previous time.
Jing Yichen spun around Jing Rui in his arms and kissed him."My son is so smart. He knows how to call me dad at such a young age! He''ll definitely be a genius in the future!"
Shangguan ning was happy too. She had been teaching Jing Rui for a long time, but he had never called out "dad" so clearly before.
Today, he actually knew how to call him ''daddy''. He even called him ''daddy'' when he was told to, which meant that he could understand adults.
She also felt that her son was very smart.
But apparently, Jing Yichen was much happier than her. He kissed his son and smiled so brightly that he praised Jing Rui.
She had never seen the noble and cold Jing Yichen act so childish.
Jing Yichen made Jing Rui call him "dad" happily. Every time Jing Rui called him "dad", heughed for a long time. Shangguan ning didn''t know whether tough or cry.
It was just that his son knew how to call him ''dad''. He was so easily satisfied!
However, why didn''t her son call her ''mother''?
Shangguan ning was a little troubled. She had taught Jing Rui how to call "mother" more times than he did, but why did she start calling him "father" first?
This wouldn''t do. She would lose face!
Fortunately, Jing Yichen did not stay smug for too long. He kept asking Jing Rui to call him father, but after a dozen times, Jing Rui seem
ed to realize that his father was not normal today and ignored him.
Jing Yichen hadn''t had enough of her. He walked to Shangguan ning with Jing Rui in his arms and said seriously,"Ning, why didn''t our son call me again?"
Shangguan ning rolled her eyes at him and said,"Jing Rui doesn''t want to y with you anymore! You still have the nerve to say that!"
She hugged Jing Rui and said,""Ruirui, you can''t be so biased. You only know how to call me dad and not mom. Don''t you love mom? Come, call mommy, mommy''s mommy''s mommy "
She had justined about Jing Yichen, but now she was even more persistent than Jing Yichen.
Chapter 709: My son knows how to talk (2)
Chapter 709: My son knows how to talk (2)
Jing Yichen couldn''t help butugh at Shangguan ning''s serious look.
He picked up his wife and Jing Rui and walked to the dining room.""Alright, we''re going to eat! After the meal, you can continue teaching our son how to speak!"
After dinner, the couple even canceled their usual walk by the beach. Theyy on the bed, with Jing Rui sitting there and being forced to call him "father" and "mother".
The young Jing Rui was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
Why is this not over yet?
He was only seven and a half months old, but he had to suffer from his parents ''continuous bombardment. If he called out, he would be forced to do so. If he didn'' t, they would be like a wound-up machine, teaching him to call.
You two are full, but he hasn ''t!
He wanted to drink milk, he wanted to y at the beach, he wanted to sleep, he didn''t want to call his parents anymore!
The couple had been shouting for the whole night, and their voices were almost hoarse. Jing Rui just stared at them with his big innocent eyes and refused to speak.
Jing Yichen smacked his son''s butt and said angrily,"Little brat, you know how to scream, but you won ''T. You''re so stubborn at such a young age. What will you do in the future?"
Although her son didn''t call her "mom," he could call her "dad," which proved that he was good at speaking. Shangguan ning didn''t care about it anymore. She hugged her son and kissed him. "It''s fine if you don''t call him that. Anyway, our son can speak at seven and a half months. He''s very smart, and that''s the most important thing!"
Ever since she knew that Jing Rui could speak and understand what they were talking about, Shangguan ning had been keeping Jing Rui by her side all the time and exining a lot to him.
Jing Yichen was the same.
He had been learning from Jing zhongxiu since he was three years old. Jing zhongxiu had never treated him as a child. He would tell him everything, no matter if it was simple orplicated.
Of course, he couldn''t have understood everything at that time, but under the influence of his surroundings, many things would quickly be integrated and understood after he grew up a little.
Therefore, he would always keep Jing Rui by his side, teaching him how to speak and all kinds of knowledge.
He did not think that his son would lose to him. Jing Rui would definitely be smarter than him and have a better learning ability. So it would not be a problem to teach him since he was a child.
After a month and a half, Jing Rui, who was already nine months old, obviously liked Jing Yichen more than Shangguan ning.
Shangguan ning couldn''t figure it out, and Jing Yichen was surprised as well.
Could Jing Rui really understand what he was teaching?
Otherwise, there was no reason why he liked to follow him instead of Shangguan ning.
Shangguan ning usually taught Jing Rui very simple things, such as the darling.
"Ruirui, this is an elephant. Look, an elephant has four legs and a long trunk. The trunk can spray water ..."
"Ruirui, which balloon do you like? Red or green? The one on the left i
s red and the one on the right is green ..."
But what Jing Yichen taught was all profound things, such as Nannan.
"The pistols we are using now are mainly self-defense pistols and assault pistols. Self-defense pistols generally had a range of 50 meters, a magazine capacity of 8 to 15 rounds, and a weight of about 1 kg. The assault pistol was also called abat pistol. It was fully automatic and generally came with a separate Gunstock. The magazine capacity was 10 to 20 rounds, and the effective range could reach 150 meters. When you''re older, I''ll teach you how to operate it. You can y with this empty submachine gun!"
"Diamond is the world''s hardest gem with the simplestposition. It''s made of carbon, simr to coal and pencil lead. The best diamonds are from the alluvial deposits in Namibia. Our family Jing is also involved in the mining. The profit margin of jewelry is very high. If you are interested, you can expand family Jing''s business in this area. This diamond is for you to y with. It''s fine if you lose it, but don''t identally eat it. "
If Jing Rui was a teenager, Jing Yichen would have thought that it was normal. But Jing Rui was only nine months old. What Shangguan ning had taught him was normal, but Jing Rui was not interested in it at all. He did not want to hold his mother at all. He only wanted to hold his father.
Shangguan ning was deeply shocked. She felt that her son must have looked down on her intelligence. Otherwise, why would he not like to hug her?
Or was it because Jing Yichen had bought over his son by giving him so many gifts?
Could it be that he didn''t like the balloons and toy elephants she bought for him?
He likes guns and diamonds?
Shangguan ning was defeated by her son''s hobby.
She refused to believe it. So she took an empty bullet shell from Jing Yichen and a piece of candy and put them in front of Jing Rui.
"Ruirui, I''ll give you a White Rabbit milk candy. Do you want it?"
She stuffed the candy into Jing Rui''s hands without waiting for him to take it.
Jing Rui threw the candy away without even looking at it and went to grab the bullet shell candy from her hand. He had eaten the candy many times- How could she return it to him! The naked thing was more fun.
Shangguan ning''s heart sank.
Was his son really that smart?
He didn''t care about candy, balloons, or toys at all. He liked guns and bullets?
Shangguan ning clutched the bullet shell tightly and refused to let her son y with it.
How can such a young child y with guns and bullets? it''s so dangerous! Not even the bullet shell!
Jing Rui was so anxious that he tried to grab the thing that he was interested in.
Shangguan ning refused to give it to him, but he got so anxious that he shouted,"Mother!"
Shangguan ning couldn''t believe it. She picked up her son in surprise and joy."Ruirui, call me that again!"
"Mom, I want it!"
The clear and tender voice of a child echoed in the living room. This time, Shangguan ning was sure that her son was really calling her. She was not hallucinating!
Jing Yichen hear
d his son''s voice the moment he came out of the bathroom. He walked over happily."Son, you''re talking again?"
Shangguan ning nodded hard and tears of joy fell from her eyes.
"Yes, yes, yes, he called me mom! He knows how to scream!"
Since Jing Rui had called him "dad" a month ago, he had stopped talking. No matter how she taught him or teased him, he would not say a word.
Shangguan ning didn''t know what to do with him, so she didn''t force him. He would call her that whenever he learned to.
He didn''t expect that his son would speak when he was provoked today! And he said it so clearly!
Chapter 710: A single cell
Chapter 710: A single cell
Shangguan ningughed and cried at the same time,"this little rascal, he will definitely call me that, but he didn''t call me that on purpose. I''m so angry!" You''re only willing to speak because you asked me for a bullet shell today. You''re so cunning!"
Jing Yichen took her and Jing Rui into his arms with a smile. He wiped away her tears and kissed her eyes."Silly girl, why are youpeting with a nine-month-old child? you should be happy that our son is so smart. He must have taken after me and doesn''t like to talk much. We''ll teach him slowly in the future and make him like to talk. "
Jing Rui did not care what his parents were saying. He was still trying to get the bullet shell. He was so busy that he was sweating profusely. He was very dissatisfied with the two of them. Could you two stop showing off your love? Can''t you just let me y with the bullet shell first?
In fact, Jing Rui could not have understood everything they were saying.
No matter how smart he was, he was still a baby.
However, he was a boy and was not naturally interested in the toy balloons that girls liked. He was naturally interested in guns and bullets, even though he did not understand what these things were used for.
Everything that Jing Yichen taught was suitable for a boy, while what Shangguan ning taught was more suitable for a girl.
That was why Jing Rui liked his father more and more, and neglected his mother.
However, it was true that he knew how to speak but was unwilling to.
Maybe this was really rted to genes. Jing zhongxiu didn''t like to talk, and so did Jing Yichen. He was very cold to others, except for Shangguan ning.
Seeing his wife crying, Jing Yichen''s heart ached. He patted his son''s butt and said,"Hurry up and call me Mommy again, or you''re not allowed to eat today! Don''t even think about the bullet shells, and I''m confiscating the pistol!"
"Mom, I want it!" Jing Rui cried out pitifully.
Shangguan ning smiled through her tears. She kissed her son''s face and gave him the bullet case."Here you go. You only called me after I gave you something good. I''ve really given birth to you and raised you for nothing!"
Jing Rui was so happy to get the bullet shell that he called out "mom" several times with a smile, which melted Shangguan ning''s heart.
Of course, she couldn''t really be angry with her son. He was still so young and didn''t know anything. She would slowly teach him in the future and make him smarter and better.
Of course, with her intelligence, she might only be able to teach Jing Rui until he was a few years old. She would have to leave the rest to Jing Yichen.
She only needed to take care of her son''s body, ensure a bnced diet, and let him grow up healthy and happy.
But after this incident, Shangguan ning had changed her way of teaching her son. Although she still taught him as a child, she had focused on developing his interests instead of simply teasing him with toys.
A nine-month-old child should be weaned off milk.
Shangguan ning had stopped feeding her son very easily. Jing Rui was not a picky eater, so he did not make a fuss about theck of breast milk.
But Jing Yichen was very unhappy. He felt that one of his future benefits wou
ld be gone, which made him very unhappy.
Shangguan ning didn''t know whether tough or cry. Sheughed at him in his arms."Why aren''t you as sensible as our son? Other people don''t have any food to eat, so they quietly go to eat something else, but you refuse to stop. Embarrassing embarrassing embarrassing!"
Jing Yichen didn''t feel embarrassed at all. He said confidently, "I''m just feeling sorry for my wife. What''s there to be embarrassed about? I''ve been a milk-sucking worker for you for so long for free. You should reward me!"
"Why are you still asking me for a reward? you should be thankful that I didn''t ask you for money!" Shangguan ning chuckled. She found it interesting to bicker with Jing Yichen, who always had a lot of twisted ideas.
"I don''t have any money. All my money is in the hands of a certain woman. She doesn''t take a single cent from me, and I''m poor. But, I don''t have money, but I have someone. You can let me ... Sleep with you, how about it?"
"No, I''ll be at a disadvantage!"
"How can that be? I''m so handsome. You''ve earned it!"
He pressed Shangguan ning under his body and took off her clothes with a smile."Baby, our son is almost this big. Can we consider having a daughter?"
Shangguan ning''s body felt as if it had been set on fire by him. It was so hot that even her voice became more charming."Nonsense, our son is so young. Let''s raise him first ..."
"Oh, that''s not too bad. Otherwise, I won''t be able to touch you for a long time ..."
Zhao Anan''s life had been very smooth recently.
She had found an excuse to deal with all the people in the school who didn''t like her and also didn''t like others.
She held great power and had a strong backing. After she dealt with the troublemakers, no one dared to take revenge.
In school, she was practically the boss, and no one dared to go against her.
This made her feel as if she had be the king of a mountain!
She had learned almost everything about work and she could handle all kinds of situations without the help of the assistant Jing Yichen had found for her.
Olddy Zhao had even specially hired an etiquette teacher for her to teach her business etiquette.
In the past, Zhao Anan had no interest in learning etiquette. She always liked to sit on the ground.
But now, she felt that it was very useful to learn this. At the very least, it was not bad to use it to scare people. Xuxu stood there with a straight face, looking extremely cold and aloof, very much like a principal!
In the past two months, Zhao Anan''s mannerism had be perfect.
She was very smart. In the past, she just refused to learn things properly.
Now that he was forced to do this, he could only try his best to gain more knowledge.
Of course, apart from the smooth-sailing work, her rtionship seemed to be very stable.
She and Mu Qing maintained a bnce. She didn''t want to marry him, and neither did he. They were like good friends and an intimate couple. They would be intimate once in a while, but they didn''t go any further.
She still went for a chec
k-up every two days. Of course, the subsequent check-ups were not asprehensive as the first one, and they did not take long each time.
However, Mu Qing seemed to have taken something out of her bodyst month. She was under anesthesia at that time and she had no idea what it was.
She had thought that Mu Qing was collecting her cells for analysis.
What Zhao Anan didn''t know was that Mu Qing had indeed taken her cell. But the cell was special. It could bebined with his penis and develop into an embryo, which would eventually be an egg cell of a baby.
This month, it was time to extract the ovum fluid again.
Chapter 711: Exhausted to the point of losing all his beard
Chapter 711: Exhausted to the point of losing all his beard
Zhao Anan had to rest for three days for thest draw. She was so scared that her face turned pale when she realized that she had to do it again.
"Doctor mu, aren''t you being a bit too cruel? I''m in pain, what are you doing, why does it hurt so much!"
Mu Qing was wearing a white coat, a pair of whitetex gloves and a blue Disposable Surgical Mask. He said seriously,
"Miss Zhao, I''ve already exined once that I''m extracting a certain cell from your body for research and analysis. This way, I can urately grasp your immune system and effectively help you prevent various diseases. The needle pierced through severalyers of your flesh, so of course it hurt! Please lie down, I''m going to start injecting you with the anesthetic. "
Zhao Anany down unwillingly and suddenly grabbed Mu Qing''s arm. She said pitifully, "I''m in pain, be gentler!"
Mu Qing looked at her helplessly, feeling sorry and guilty.
He took off his mask and no longer put on an act. He coaxed her gently in a low voice,""Close your eyes, don''t be afraid, don''t move, or you''ll be hurt. This is for your future, and also for my future. Are you going to give up halfway? It won''t hurt with the anesthetic. "
Yes, this was for their future!
Mu Qing knew that she didn''t understand what he meant. He didn''t need her to understand, as long as she didn''t resist.
If she was in pain, he was willing to keep coaxing her.
Zhao Anan despised herself in her heart. Why did she be so delicate?
She even needed Mu Qing to coax her!
In the past, it wasmon for her to break her ribs and break her arms in fights. That one was much more painful than this one, but didn''t she get through it?
Thinking of this, she indeed felt much more rxed. She could just treat it as if she had been beaten up.
"Alright,e on!" She said to Mu Qing as she closed her eyes.
Mu Qing patted her hand gently, put on the mask and injected the anesthetic into her.
Five minutester, after the anesthesia took effect, he began to extract the ovum fluid.
There were a total of five eggs extracted from the ovumst month, but unfortunately, only one could develop into an embryo, and the rest could not bebined with the sperm.
Besides, it was a normal ovum, and old man mu was not satisfied with it.
This was rted to his great-grandson, a weak ovum. No matter how strong his grandson''s penis was, the Union of the two would cause the embryo to be weak! How could he be strong and smart in the future when he was so weak from the root?
He had expected that the egg cells in Zhao Anan''s body would be very weak, but he did not expect them to be this weak. Even an artificial embryo could not be cultivated!
Grandpa had given Zhao Anan a prescription to nourish her body and asked Mu Qing to make Chinese medicine for her ording to the prescription. She had to drink it every day to recuperate.
Taking medicine was amon thing for Zhao Anan. She used to take it all the time and she was taking it again now. She didn''t mind it. S
he would take whatever Mu Qing gave her. He wouldn''t hurt her anyway.
The extraction of the ovum went smoothly. After Mu Qing sent Zhao Anan home, he went back to family mu with the newly extracted ovum.
Mu Wensheng was still buried in hisboratory, trying his best to help the only sessful embryo be stronger.
Jing Tianyuan was also sitting in hisboratory. He had be mu Wensheng''s assistant. He could find and give mu Wensheng whatever he wanted.
He had been with mu Wensheng for a long time and was almost a doctor. His medical skills were not bad.
Mu Wensheng didn''t even look up when he saw Mu Qinging in, but Jing Tianyuanughed at him."My great-grandson can speak now and he knows how to y with guns and not balloons. Look at you, it''s so hard to give birth to a child. Your Grandpa is so tired that his beard has fallen off!"
Mu Qing took a closer look and found that mu Wensheng''s beard had disappeared.
He was shocked and walked to mu Wensheng in a few steps. He said,"Grandpa, where''s your beard?"
Mu Wensheng had always been proud of his beard. He always said that his beard was the symbol of his longevity. The longer it was, the longer he would live, so he never cut his beard.
But now, Grandpa MU''s beard was all gone. How could Mu Qing not be surprised?
The old man pushed him aside impatiently. As he observed the embryo under a microscope, he mumbled,""Don''t listen to old man Jing. I shaved my beard off. How could it fall off? even if I die, my beard won''t fall off by itself!"
Mu Qing still found it hard to believe,"haven''t you been growing your beard for more than twenty years?" Why did you shave it now?"
Mu Wensheng finally raised his head and looked at him. He said in exasperation,""It''s all because of you, kid! It''s inconvenient to use a microscope with such a long beard, and it''s also inconvenient to do experiments. It''s too troublesome, so I had to cut it off! If all you bring back this time are dead eggs, just wait and see how I''ll deal with you!"
Mu Qing felt a little guilty. Grandpa mu had given up his life for him and even shaved off his most beloved beard.
But the ovum was Zhao Anan''s and he could not be med for its poor activity.
Of course, Mu Qing didn''t dare to talk back at this moment. He gave a medical freezer to mu Wensheng and said,"Please take a look. There are six in total this time. There should be something good."
Mu Wensheng took it and opened it carefully. He observed it under the microscope and did a fewplicated tests. After more than an hour, he finally looked a little happy.
"Hahaha, there are two alive this time, and one of them is finally not sick! It seems that my prescription is very effective. Ah Qing, continue to boil the medicine for her, and don''t stop for a day!"
"Okay, I will let her continue to drink," Mu Qing promised.
Mu Wensheng was busy with his work and mumbled,""Zhao Anan looks as strong as a calf, but her cells are so weak and sickly. She really needs to be treated."
Mu Qing looked at his watch and found that it was already past 10:00 in th
e evening. Usually, Grandpa mu would be asleep by this time. He always went to bed early and got up early, and rarely stayed upte.
Jing Tianyuan looked at his watch and suddenly remembered something."Qing, quickly help us make something to eat. We haven''t had dinner yet! I''m starving to death just following this old man around!"
No way, it''s already sote and the two old men haven''t had dinner!
Hearing Jing Tianyuan''s words, mu Wensheng realized that he had forgotten to eat.
He knew it, he felt like he had missed out on something very important!
Aiya, this is not good for health!
Chapter 712-the pursuer is here!
Chapter 712-the pursuer is here!
"Yes, yes, yes, hurry up and cook. I want to eat cold cucumber sd! You don''t have to cook for him, old man Jing, just let him starve. He''s been freeloading at my ce all day without paying for his meals!"
"Old man mu, you better make it clear. What do you mean by just starving me? How did I freeload food and stay here? I''ve been your assistant the whole day, and I can''t even get a meal? I, Jing Tianyuan, have never been an assistant to anyone in my life. It''s good enough that I didn''t ask you for money, but you don''t even want to pay me!"
"You''re the unqualified assistant! Any of my grandsons can do better than you!"
"You blockhead, you dare to take advantage of me! Who are you calling a grandson!"
"I''m not talking about you, why are you so anxious ..."
Grandpa started to argue with Jing Tianyuan again.
Mu Qing shook his head with a smile and didn''t try to stop them. They had been like this since they were young.
She was noisy all day long. Although she always argued until her face was red, she never really got angry. The two of them didn''t even need five minutes to make up!
When something happened to one of them, the other was more anxious than anyone else.
The two of them were true friends, and they understood each other''s preferences and personalities. In theirter years, they apanied each other and were so close that they were almost together wherever they went.
Jing Tianyuan had his own wife, so he wouldn''t be too lonely.
Mu Wensheng had married two wives, but both of them had only lived for a few years. Jing Tianyuan was the one who had stayed by his side the longest.
Jing Tianyuan was also a cold and quiet man when he was young. But since he got to know mu Wensheng, they had been quarreling almost every day. He was a Chatterbox in front of mu Wensheng.
In fact, Mu Qing was grateful that Jing Tianyuan could stay here with his Grandpa every day. The old man was getting on in years and he needed someone to take care of him. However, he didn''t like the younger generation to be around him all day. He hoped that the descendants of the MU family would all work hard outside to gain face for him.
It was good to have two old men of simr age aspanions and be noisy.
Mu Qing walked out of theb and went to the kitchen to make food for them after hearing their argument.
Now that the servants had all gone home, it seemed that he could only be the chef for the two of them.
Zhao Anan had been taking the medicine prescribed by Grandpa recently. She looked much better and her immune system had been improved. She would not catch a cold the next day even if she kicked off the quilt.
Moreover, she felt that she was full of energy recently, as if she had endless strength. She always wanted to ... Find someone to fight!
Very quickly, the person looking for a beating came to the door.
Zhao Anan was dressed in a ck professional suit, sitting on afortable leather chair elegantly. She was reading the school''stest news while sipping her coffee.
This semester was the first semester for the new students. Thanks to the huge schrship support provided by Jing Yichen, University of X had epted many good students who came from poor families. Thetest schrship had been given out to help the students get through the difficult period.
Zhao Anan felt that the money was well worth it. She was a chivalrous person and she would help her when s
he saw injustice.
Now that he was the principal, it was only natural for him to help his own students.
So, she was thinking about whether she should discuss with her motherter and ask Zhao Jewelry Group to donate a sum of money as well.
As Zhao Anan was thinking, Jin ning, her assistant in name but actually her teacher, knocked on the door and walked in."Principal Zhao, a man who ims to be your friend is here to see you. He said his surname is li."
Zhao Anan was puzzled. Friends? Li?
Why didn''t she remember that she had a friend with the surname Li?
Aiya, who cares, won''t you know when youe in and take a look! She had so many bodyguards outside her office, so she wouldn''t be afraid even if yang Muyan came.
Since Jing Yichen''s bodyguards didn''t stop him, he should be fine.
"Let him in!"
Very quickly, a tall and strong man walked in.
Zhao Anan''s eyes almost popped out when she saw him. She cried out,"Knife Lee, what are you doing here?"
Hadn''t he been protecting Shangguan ning and Jing Rui all this time? Why did hee to school?
No wonder Jing Yichen''s men didn''t stop him. He was one of them!
He still had the face to say that he was friends with her, and that they were enemies!
She didn''t look for him to settle the old score of imprisonment, but he still dared to appear in front of her!
She was just worried that she had nowhere to vent her strength, and now someone who could take a beating came!
Seeing Zhao Anan, knife Lee, who had always been serious, showed a smile."Anan, I''ve asked young master to let me be in charge of your safety for the time being."
"What?" Zhao Anan could not believe it. "You will protect me? My brother actually agreed to it!"
Wasn''t he afraid that she would torture knife Lee to death?
He was actually willing to lose such a strong man to protect Shangguan ning?
"The young master didn''t agree at first," knife Lee said lightly."But I begged him for a whole month and told him that I wanted to marry you, so he agreed."
The coffee cup in Zhao Anan''s hand fell to the ground with a ng, and the White porcin broke into pieces.
This was impossible!
Other people might not know Jing Yichen, but she knew her cousin very well.
Was he such an easy person to talk to?
He even allowed his subordinates to be picky and have crooked thoughts?
If begging was useful to him, she wouldn''t have had such a miserable life in the past!
Zhao Anan had a strong feeling that there was a conspiracy, but she had no idea what it was.
Why did knife Lee suddenly fall in love with her?
Thest time he said he liked her, she thought he was just saying it. Why did he chase her to school now?
Zhao Anan was spiky all over!
She had been imprisoned by knife Lee for more than half a year. She had been in the same room with him for more than a hundred days and nights, eating and sleeping together. But how could she have feelings for him?
In the past, she had been thinking about how to kill this big guy every day!
If it weren''t for the difference in strength between the two, she wouldn''t have let knife Lee live until today!
;
Now that knife Lee said he liked her and wanted to marry her, she was so angry with this muscr man!
She stepped forward in a rage and gave knife Lee a good beating, not caring about the cold and aloof look that she had been trying to maintain.
As he fought, he scolded,"
"You damn pervert!| Perverted imprisoning maniac, who wants to marry you? You almost starved me to death when you imprisoned me, have you forgotten? I haven ''t!"
"You want to marry me? In your dreams! I''m already very kind for not killing you, but you''re actually insatiable and dare toe for a tune.| You''re toying with me!"
Chapter 713: Driven crazy
Chapter 713: Driven crazy
Knife Lee didn''t move and just stood there, letting her hit him.
When Zhao Anan was exhausted, he said,""It was my fault for imprisoning you, but I was working for Jing Yiran at that time. I was paid by him to look after you, but I never hurt you. If you''re still angry, then hit me, until you''re done. "
Knife Lee was a man of few words and he was one of Jing Yichen''s men who didn''t like to talk, even more so than Lee duo. Tiger didn''t even talk to him when he wanted to, and he was always surrounded by two quiet men.
Although knife Lee still didn''t seem to be good with words, he was quite talkative.
He really liked Zhao Anan and always felt that she was different from other girls. He liked to talk to Zhao Anan and was willing to let her vent her anger.
The point was that Zhao Anan was so angry that she was gnashing her teeth in hatred, but knife Lee felt that she was flirting with him.
When her fist hit him, it only hurt a little. It didn''t pose any threat to him at all. He felt that the strength she used was just scratching an itch for him.
When he had been with Zhao Anan for the past six months, Zhao Anan had hit him a lot, and every time, she had been defeated. He didn''t feel any pain, but her hands did.
Of course, the result was the same.
Zhao Anan used all her strength to hit and kick him, but soon she ran out of strength.
She panted heavily and sat on the ground without any care for her image. Looking at her red and swollen hand, she couldn''t help but wail,""It hurts! Are you even human? why is your entire body so hard?"
Knife Lee looked down at his body and said,""I have no choice. I used to be someone''s fighter and have been beaten up too many times. If I don''t have strong muscles, I will be beaten to death very soon. In order to survive, I trained to this level. "
He was born with great strength, but the muscles on his body were all acquired through hard work. As a result, his attack and defense were even more powerful.
In the rain of blood, in the blind darkness,| If one didn''t have real ability, they would have been killed long ago.
Knife Lee looked tall and strong, but he seemed to have no brain. In fact, he was the opposite. He was quick-witted and meticulous, never swayed by his emotions. He did things steadily and carefully. He even knew Japanese and English, as well as a lot of other Umon Knowledge.
Otherwise, he wouldn''t have hidden for so long with Zhao Anan under the tight search of Lee duo and Mu Qing.
He was outstanding in all aspects and was loyal enough. That was why Jing Yichen had taken him in and made him his right-hand man, just like Tiger and liduo.
Sitting on the ground, Zhao Anan raised her head and looked at knife Lee.
His body was full of firm muscles, giving off an explosive feeling. What was even more frightening was that there were many scars on his body. Some were no longer obvious, but some were still ferocious. It could be imagined that he must have been seriously injured at that time.
She didn''t know how he had survived.
To be someone else''s hatchet man ...
In order to survive ...
Zhao Anan suddenly felt sad.
Knife
Lee didn''t really care about his rough experience. He didn''t feel sad when he said it, and his tone was very calm.
This was clearly a very sad and unbearable memory, but he said it so calmly.
Zhao Anan''s heart softened.
Although she was sick, she had always lived the life of a rich youngdy. Although she also fought, it was purely because she had nothing to do and deliberately looked for trouble.
Knife Lee, on the other hand, did not have a good day.
When they were living together, he had once unintentionally said that his current life was the most stable he had ever been in his life.
.
At that time, she evenughed at him for being locked up in a room all day and not being able to go anywhere. If this was called peace, he would be even more peaceful lying in a coffin after he died.
Now that he thought about it, that period of time was probably the mostfortable time of his life.
Zhao Anan wiped the sweat off her forehead. She was no longer angry after beating him up. Knife Lee was so pitiful, so she didn''t want to argue with him anymore.
She got up from the ground and red at knife Lee,""Hurry up and get lost. Don''t be an eyesore here. Otherwise, I''ll beat you up againter. Don''t cry!"
Knife Lee didn''t move. He looked up at Zhao Anan, who was blushing, and his heart softened."Anan, you''re going to marry me?"
Zhao Anan lost her bnce and almost fell to the ground!
When did she agree to marry him?
"Which word, which expression, and which action did you see just now? you could tell that I''ve agreed to'' marry ''you!"
"But, I think you''re good to me," knife Lee said happily.
Zhao Anan waspletely defeated by him.
How much had knife Lee suffered before that he would think that she was being nice to him by beating him up?
Zhao Anan felt helpless. She couldn''tmunicate with this man at all!
No wonder he didn''t like to talk much. He probably felt that he couldn''t get along with everyone!
"I''ll definitely treat you well in the future. I''ll always protect you and won''t let anyone bully you. Marry me and we''ll live together."
"I''m not getting married!"
Zhao Anan said to him weakly.
This person usually looked like a very straightforward person, why was he so long-winded now!
"Who are you going to marry if not me? Mu Qing? Alright, just you wait, I''m going to have a fight with him now. Only the winner is qualified to marry you!"
What the hell is this!
Zhao Anan felt that knife Lee was driving her crazy.
"Come back here! Don''t go to Mu Qing! I will not marry him!"
Looking at knife Lee''s muscles and terrifying strength, Mu Qing was no match for him! If Mu Qing was hurt because of this, she would be heartbroken.
And if Mu Qing knew about this, he would kill her!
What if knife Lee, who was full of himself, told Mu Qing that she was nice to him and wanted to marry him? Mu Qing woulde to the school even if he had nothing to do!
"So you agree to marry me?"
"I ..."
Zhao Anan waspletely devastated.
What if she wanted to kill someone! Why didn''t she bring a knife to school today?!
"I''m not getting married, I don''t like you! I''m not interested in you at all. Get out of my office! I don''t need your protection, there are plenty of people here to protect me!"
Zhao Anan''s voice was hoarse and she was so angry that she wanted to drink some coffee to moisten her throat. But she had already smashed the cup.
Didn''t you look at the Chinese calendar when you went out today? how unlucky!
Chapter 714: Officer Zheng, do you like an an too?
Chapter 714: Officer Zheng, do you like an an too?
"It''s okay if you''re not interested. You can just slowly cultivate together in the future!"
Knife Lee was not discouraged by Zhao Anan''s refusal.
Tiger often said that women were thin-skinned and it was impossible to seed in one try. They must be rejected thousands of times before they could be a couple.
"You''re a girl, how can you not get married? Since you don''t want to marry Mu Qing, don''t force yourself. Marry me and I can give you happiness!"
The moment knife Lee finished his words, a voice came from the door of Zhao Anan''s office."Marry who? What happiness?"
Zhao Anan looked up and was overjoyed."Zheng Jing, what are you doing here? Come in,e in, there''s someone here who''s been bothering you,e help!"
Zheng Jing was dressed in a police uniform. Standing in the sunlight, he looked tall and straight.
He was full of righteousness, which was totally different from knife Lee. If they were to shoot a TV show together, Zheng Jing would be the righteous policeman in the show.| Knife Lee must be the viin.
Zheng Jing strode into Zhao Anan''s office and stopped in front of knife Lee. He said calmly,"Stop pestering Anan. You can protect her, but you can''t marry her. She doesn''t like you. You don''t have to waste your energy."
Except for Jing Yichen, knife Lee didn''t care about anyone else, not even the youngest and most outstanding Criminal Police officer of A city.
He had survived countless de lights and sword shadows, so he had absolute confidence in his own strength.
He had subconsciously regarded Zheng Jing as hispetitor, because Zhao Anan had used him as an excusest time and Zheng Jing seemed to appear around Zhao Anan more frequently than Mu Qing, which attracted knife Lee''s attention.
"Officer Zheng, you like Anan too?"
"I ..."
Zheng Jing was stumped by knife Lee''s question and didn''t know how to answer.
However, since he couldn''t answer, there were naturally people who fought to answer for him.
Zhao Anan grabbed his arm and said loudly,"Yes, yes, yes. He likes me. You''ve seen it too. I have him to protect me. I definitely don''t need you anymore. You should leave quickly!"
The muscles on knife Lee''s arms suddenly moved. He frowned and looked at Zheng Jing with a fierce look."You want to snatch my woman?"
Zheng Jing''s face was full of excitement. He wanted to say that this was not the case, but it was against the script that Shangguan ning had given him. But if he admitted it, knife Lee would definitely fight with him.
Zhao Anan held Zheng Jing''s arm and kept winking at him. She even pinched his waist, trying to force him to say "yes."
Zheng Jing had his own difficulties. Even Tiger and Lee duo might not be able to defeat knife Lee in a one-on-one fight, not to mention him.
And knife Lee was Jing Yichen''s man! If he fought with knife Lee! He would be making things difficult for Jing Yichen!
What was more, he was only acting when he was treating Zhao Anan so well. He did not like Zhao Anan and there was no need to be jealous of knife Lee
. Mu Qing was the one who should be here to fight with him.
.
Fortunately, Zheng Jing had been through all kinds of things and this was not a problem for him.
"If you have the ability, then win Anan''s heart by yourself. What''s the point of fighting with me? even if I don''t fight with you, does that mean Anan can marry you? If you got the wrong target, it would be useless no matter how hard you fought. If you want to marry Anan, you have to make her happy. But she doesn''t like people like you who like to solve problems by force. "
As expected of a Criminal Police officer, his logical thinking was strict, and his thinking was clear. He pointed out the key point in an instant, and at the same time, he also cleared himself of the mess.
Knife Lee thought for a while and felt that Zheng Jing''s words made sense.
If he could marry Zhao Anan directly, then even ten Zheng Jing would be useless. The key was who Zhao Anan liked.
"Alright, I won''t fight with you. I''ll use my actions to move an ''an''s heart!"
Knife Lee said and looked at Zhao Anan."Anan, if you think I''m not good enough, just tell me and I''ll change! Until you''re satisfied!"
Zhao Anan rolled her eyes. Don''t you know that you are not good at anything? It was so difficult to even speak, and there was no way tomunicate at all. It was infuriating.
If Zheng Jing hadn''te today, he didn''t know how long he would have kept pestering her.
"Also, I''m not as careless as I look, and I''m not someone who likes to solve problems with force. The reason why I want to fight them is because this is the only way to prove to you that my strength is the most powerful, and only I can give you the most reliable protection."
These words were spoken with substance, and it was indeed different from his rough appearance. It seemed that he really was a person with a brain.
But no matter if he had a brain or not, no matter how powerful he was, Zhao Anan didn''t like him.
Every time she saw him, she had the urge to beat him to death. She didn''t want to stay with him for even a second longer. If he continued to pester her like this in the future, she would go crazy!
"No, no, no, I don''t need any protection. I''m living a Good Life now, and no one wants to take my life. Can you really stop wasting your time?"
Zhao Anan pushed him away with gritted teeth."Hurry up and get out. I have something important to discuss with officer Zheng. You can''t be there!"
He had said what he needed to say today. Although knife Lee did not want to leave Zhao Anan, he could not stay in her office any longer.
He would be protecting Zhao Anan from now on and there would be plenty of opportunities to spend time with her alone.
Zhao Anan finally drove the man out and mmed the door of the office. Then she fell to the ground.
"He''s finally gone! I''m so tired, why is this person so stubborn, insisting on marrying me! What''s so good about me? He''s a big-headed, heartless man who doesn''t know how to do anything. I don''t even want to marry myself, so why would knife Lee me me?"
Zheng Jingughed in his heart. So Zhao Anan k
new all about his shorings and he didn''t like her either.
Wasn''t she always very narcissistic?
Why did he start to belittle himself after being provoked by knife Lee today?
Zheng Jing was leaning against the window, looking at knife Lee, who was Zhao Anan''s bodyguard. He thought for a moment and said, "You''re good. You have many good points, but you just don''t know them. The less you think you''re outstanding, the cuter you seem."
Zhao Anan felt that something was not right. Since when did Zheng Jing speak in such a nauseating way? And he even said such mushy words to a tough woman like her. It was too disgusting!
Chapter 715: Zheng Lun will be blessed in the future
Chapter 715: Zheng Lun will be blessed in the future
Zhao Anan immediately rolled up her sleeves, showing her Jade-like arms."Hey, hey, hey, you''re not serious. Look, I''m so disgusted by you that I''m getting goosebumps!"
Zheng Jing looked at her and couldn''t helpughing. "You''re not even happy when I praise you. I won''t praise you again in the future!"
Zhao Anan was actually an innocent, lively, and adorable girl. She had a unique temperament that made people feel rxed and happy. When he was with her, he didn''t need to pretend and could be himself without any worry.
Zheng Jing had always admired Zhao Anan. She lived a carefree life. She did everything ording to her will, except for marrying Mu Qing. She loved to y and was full of youth.
But ording to his character, he would not have said those words so casually, no matter how much he admired Zhao Anan.
He was an introverted man who was not good at being romantic orplimenting others. He also had little experience in getting along with other women. Zheng Lun was the only woman he treated with care.
He felt goosebumps all over his body when heplimented Zhao Anan.
He had always treated Zhao Anan as a boy! And it was so embarrassing to praise her so openly!
But no matter how awkward it was, he would not give up until he married Zhao Anan off.
When she married Mu Qing, she would only hurt Mu Qing and not him. The world would be peaceful then.
Seeing that Zheng Jing was silent and just looking at her, Zhao Anan touched her face and said in confusion,""What are you looking at me for? is there something on my face?"
Zheng Jing''s expression did not change as he said, "There''s nothing. You''re so pretty. Can''t you let me see it?"
These words sounded even more wrong!
Zhao Anan stood up from the ground and walked to Zheng Jing. She stared at him and asked, "You''re not serious. Don''t tell me you like me!"
Zheng Jing''s face twitched slightly and it took him a while to hold back hisughter. He said calmly,"I didn''t say that it''s your own guess."
Zhao Anan let out a sigh of relief.
If Zheng Jing fell in love with her, how would she exin it to Zheng Lun?
She had promised Zheng Lun that she would keep an eye on Zheng Jing and would not let any other woman take him away. If she and Zheng Jing ...
That would definitely be the end!
Zhao Anan shivered. It was impossible. Zheng Jing didn''t seem to like her at all.
She was overthinking, overthinking!
It was all because of that pervert, knife Lee. She had been tortured so much by him that she had even thought that Zheng Jing liked her.
Zheng Jing was definitely not her type. He must have liked Zheng Lun, who was gentle and kind.
Zhao Anan was relieved and felt very thirsty.
She took out two sses from a ss cab, poured a ss of water for herself and another for Zheng Jing. She handed them to him."Why did youe again today?" &nbs
p;
.
Zheng Jing had been showing up in front of her so frequently that Zhao Anan could not ignore him.
"Didn''t I tell you that X University has already been ced under my jurisdiction?"
Zhao Anan''s eyes widened and she shook her head."No, you never told me! You didn''t even tell me about such an important thing!"
"I''ve been wandering around your school every day. Didn''t you notice?"
"I''ve noticed! But I thought you were just here to take a look around the school!"
"Do I look that free?"
Zhao Anan stared at him for a while and nodded."Yeah, I feel like you''re very free, much more free than I am. I don''t even have time to go around the campus every day."
Zheng Jing was wearing a white shirt, a dark blue police uniform, dark blue trousers and ck military shoes. His long legs and straight back made him look even taller and more heroic, giving people a sense of security that they could trust with all their hearts.
Zhao Anan had never looked at Zheng Jing in the eye before, but now that she looked at him carefully, she could see that he had a very good face.
He had long eyebrows, deep-set eyes, a straight nose, and even his slightly thick lips looked very sexy. His skin was a healthy wheat color, and he exuded a masculine aura from head to toe.
Zheng Jing had muscles all over his body, but he was totally different from knife Lee.
His muscles weren''t exaggerated and were all hidden in his clothes. From the outside, one would even think that he was a little thin, but if one reached out and touched him, one could clearly feel that he was very strong.
He had the standard figure of a male model. He looked thin when he was dressed, but he was chubby when he was undressed.
When a woman saw this kind of man, she would easily be a little woman who would act coquettishly, because he gave her a sense of security.
Zhao Anan looked at Zheng Jing from head to toe until he felt his scalp go numb. Then she patted his shoulder and said,"I didn''t notice before, but you have a pretty good appearance! If you can''t stay in the criminal Police force anymore, you can still go to the entertainment industry. With your figure, even if you can''t be an A-list actor, you can still attract a lot of female fans. "
Zheng Jing thought to himself,"my acting skills are so good now. If I can''t make it in the future, I can go to the entertainment industry. I don''t need to rely on my body. I can make it to the top of the film industry with my acting skills alone!"
Zhao Anan patted Zheng Jing''s face and said,"His face is so handsome, just a little less than Mu Qing ''s."
Zheng Jing''s handsome face turned stiff.
He really wanted to p Zhao Anan''s hand away, but he held himself back!
Shangguan ning had asked him to be good to Zhao Anan. Yes, to be good to her. He could not hit her.
Seeing that he had no reaction, Zhao Anan reached out and patted his strong chest."She has such a good figure, just a little better than Mu Qing. Zheng Lun is so luc
ky! Don''t be too cruel. Zheng Lun is so weak. She can''t stand your torture. "
Such a bold statement made Zheng Jing spit out the water he had just drunk.
"Cough, cough, cough ..."
Zheng Jing coughed and his face and ears turned red. He didn''t know if it was because of the cough or the embarrassment.
When he finally recovered, he pointed at Zhao Anan and said angrily,"Zhao Anan, can you be normal? How can you say such things in front of the opposite sex?"
Zhao Anan red at him."Why are you shouting so loudly? I''m not deaf! Besides, I don''t see you as a man. Do you think I''m a woman?"
Chapter 716: Teaching a man a lesson on behalf of her best friend
Chapter 716: Teaching a man a lesson on behalf of her best friend
Zheng Jing was furious. It was not a matter of whether he treated Zhao Anan as a woman or not, but she was a woman. No matter how much she acted like a boy, she was still a woman.
No matter how familiar he was with her, he was not close enough to make that kind of joke!
This wretched girl was so fierce, he wondered how Mu Qing could handle her.
"Lun is my sister and I am her brother. Don''t talk nonsense all day. It is not what you think. Don''t say such things again. "
Zheng Jing said this very seriously.
He had to protect Zheng Lun''s reputation before he had enough power to protect her and before he could let Zheng Lun appear in public as his woman.
Although Zhao Anan had no bad intentions and was very nice to Zheng Lun, she was a carefree girl. If she identally spread the news about him and Zheng Lun, Zheng Lun would be attacked by the gossip.
This was something he did not want to see.
But Zhao Anan didn''t know what he was thinking, and neither did she know how awkward and passive the situation was for him and Zheng Lun. She only knew that Zheng Lun loved Zheng Jing very much and she couldn''t live without him.
When Zheng Jing was going to marry Zhu ruotong, Zheng Lun had been so sad that she almost died. She refused to eat or sleep every day, only crying in silence.
If Zheng Jing and Zhu ruotong hadn''t broken up, Zheng Lun might have been in a terrible situation.
But now, Zhao Anan was infuriated when she heard that Zheng Jing refused to admit his rtionship with Zheng Lun and that they were just siblings.
She pointed at Zheng Jing''s nose and scolded,
"Zheng Jing, do you still have a conscience? Are you even human! Don''t you know how much Lun likes you? You''re not her real brother, so why are you acting all high and mighty now? She''s so beautiful and gentle, it''s a good thing for you to marry her! You''re still despising her now, shameless!"
Zhao Anan got angrier and angrier. Suddenly, she thought of a possibility. Her face changed and she asked in a stern voice,
"Say, do you like another woman again? That Zhu ruotong is with you again? If you dare to betray her, I''ll be the first to kill you!"
Zheng Jing was speechless after being scolded by her for no reason.
Those who were aware of it knew that Zhao Anan was teaching him a lesson on behalf of Zheng Lun, but those who did not know would think that Zhao Anan was jealous because she liked him.
Zheng Jing was getting a headache. He didn''t like Zheng Lun at all. How was he with Zhu ruotong? He had never liked Zhu ruotong!
But Zheng Jing really couldn''t say this.
He couldn''t disclose the rtionship between him and Zheng Lun yet, or Zheng Lun would be the one who would be hurt the most.
"Don''t shout. If you speak so loudly, the people outside will hear you. Now, Lun is my sister and few people know that she was adopted by my parents. Everyone thinks that we''re biological siblings. If something like that happened between us, we would beughed at. It''s fine f
or me as a man, but Lun is a timid girl. She can''t stand being gossiped about by others. "
Zheng Jing couldn''t exin too much, and he couldn''t exin that he was still carrying out the important task that Shangguan ning had assigned to him. So he could only tell Zhao Anan the most basic truth.
But Zhao Anan did not believe him at all.
She had always thought that Zheng Jing had a "criminal record." He had liked someone else and not Zheng Lun. It was only when Shangguan ning said that Zheng Jing liked Zheng Lun that Zhao Anan believed that Zheng Jing had no choice but to be with Zhu ruotong.
But now, she was very suspicious of Shangguan ning''s judgment. She felt that Zheng Jing might not have a deep affection for Zheng Lun. Otherwise, why would he not want to marry Zheng Lun at all?
"You are just making excuses. You don''t like Lun anymore! Zheng Jing, you son of a B * tch, you abandoned me after having sex with me, you are a womanizer and a dog with evil intentions! I must teach you a lesson on behalf of Lun today!"
Zhao Anan said as she sshed the remaining half cup of water on Zheng Jing''s face. If she had not been afraid of ruining his handsome face and making Zheng Lun sad, she would have thrown the cup at Zheng Jing''s face.
Zheng Jing didn''t expect her to be so good at carrying out her orders.
He was totally stunned by Zhao Anan''s water.
He had thought that she had restrained her fiery temper after bing the principal, but it turned out that she had not changed at all!
Zheng Jing had just wiped off the water on his face when Zhao Anan took off her high heels and hit him with them.
Although her high heels were only five centimeters long, they were sharp and thin. If they were to stab her body, she would definitely have a bloody hole!
Zheng Jing dodged in a hurry and shouted,"Zhao Anan, put down your shoes. You are going to die! If you hit me again, I won''t be polite!"
"Alright,e at me! Hit me! If you dare, I''ll let knife Lee in and beat you up!"
Zheng Jing''s heart was as bitter as a Chinese goldthread.
Zhao Anan was good at making use of resources. She had used him to kick knife Lee out and now she was asking him toe in and deal with her. She used to think that she was simple-minded, but now it seemed that she was really smart.
How did today''s matter be like this?
He had nned to treat Zhao Anan to lunch and "build up" their rtionship, but it had been ruined.
Life was indeed unpredictable. Although the script was all arranged, the female lead did not y her cards ording tomon sense. The director had miscalcted!
It''s fine. If I can''t do it today, I can try again tomorrow. There''s still time anyway.
Today ... He had better run for his life and inform Mu Qing that he had a very strong rival in love.
Zheng Jing hade handsomely and retreated in embarrassment. He was a little depressed and emotional.
His sister, on the other hand, had a close f
riend who was so supportive of her. She was more worried than anyone else when she felt that he was not warm to Zheng Lun. She was afraid that he would break up with Zheng Lun.
He hoped that Zhao Anan could be happy and that she could live on and not be taken away by the disease.
He would spare no effort to help her with Mu Qing, even if Zhao Anan would scold him to death.
Mu Qing soon got to know from Zheng Jing that knife Lee was after Zhao Anan and that he wanted to marry her.
He was so angry that he did not even have lunch. He pushed all the patients in the afternoon to other doctors and drove to University of X.
Chapter 717: Meeting love rivals, jealousy beyond reason
Chapter 717: Meeting love rivals, jealousy beyond reason
Ever since Zhao Anan had be the principal of University of X, Mu Qing had not visited her at school.
He only knew that after she became the principal, she had changed a lot. Not only was she wearing a suit, but she was also wearing high heels. She had a noble and sophisticated temperament and looked like a good principal with lofty aspirations.
Although she was still a little confused and careless girl in front of him, she could y her role well in front of others and was not as impulsive as before.
Moreover, ever since she got this very responsible job, she had really given up on the idea of running away.
Recently, she had been working very hard, wanting to build University of X better, to let more outstanding students enter the school to learn, and to let more outstanding teacherse to teach.
She was much more attentive than when she was a teacher at University of X.
The principal''s office was very easy to find. All the students in the school knew where it was, so they just had to ask.
The principal''s office was a small independent building, and it was the office of the school''s high-level executives. This building had been built more than ten years ago. At that time, the principal wasn''t principal min. Someone else had been in charge.
The principal of that time knew how to enjoy life, so he had the school build a small building for him as his work and life ce.
After principal min took the stage, he couldn''t openly upy an entire building as his office, so he asked the other senior management of the school to also choose a room as an office.
After Zhao Anan became the principal, the first and second floors of the five-story building belonged to her. The upper three floors were used as the offices of the other leaders of the school, including principal min''s office.
Mu Qing drove the car and stopped in front of the building. The moment he got out of the car, he saw two rows of 12 bodyguards standing in the open space in front of the building.
He looked majestic and did not look like he was protecting a principal, but more like he was protecting the president.
Who would dare to bully Zhao Anan when there were so many bodyguards in suits and leather shoes?
Seeing her like this, the other school leaders would not dare toe to this office building. Qianqian had guessed it right. Zhao Anan was the only one working in this building.
In front of the 12 bodyguards stood a tall and sturdy man. He was Mu Qing''s target, knife Lee.
Knife Lee saw Mu Qing from a distance of more than ten meters away.
His eyes immediately became sharp and fierce, and his expression was one of determination to deal with his love rival.
Mu Qing was furious when he saw his expression.
Knife Lee really took himself seriously and regarded him as a love rival!
He''s so shameless!
What right did he have to fight with him for Zhao Anan?
If he had known that knife Lee was interested in Zhao Anan, he would not have allowed Lee duo to bring knife Lee back to China and let him follow Jing Yichen and be his right-hand man.
Mu Qing walked forw
ard slowly and looked at knife Lee. Before he could say anything, knife Lee said,""Mu Qing, are you here to see my Anan? She''s not free now, you can go!"
Mu Qing almost vomited blood.
What did he mean by "my Anan"?
When did Zhao Anan be his?
And he even made the decision for Zhao Anan and drove him away!
.
He really wanted to give knife Lee a knife and let him reincarnate as a human!
Mu Qing took a dozen deep breaths to suppress the urge to kill.
If knife Lee had not been Jing Yichen''s man, he would have been stabbed with a silver needle and he would never wake up again.
"Knife Lee, you''d better stay away from me. Anan is my woman, don''t humiliate yourself. An ''an doesn''t like you. The person she likes is me, and it has always been me! You have no chance!"
"If Anan likes you, why didn''t she marry you?"
"She doesn''t want to marry me for a special reason. It doesn''t mean that she doesn''t like me. On the contrary, the reason she doesn''t want to marry me is because she likes me."
Knife Lee looked at Mu Qing as if he was an idiot. How could he have such a reason?
Did she not marry him because she liked him?
You can''t even fool a three-year-old child, right?
Why didn''t he find a decent excuse! Did he look like he had no brain?
Knife Lee was a little unhappy, and his tone was getting harsher."As far as I know, you two have already broken up. You''re no longer her boyfriend. My pursuit of Anan has nothing to do with you. It doesn''t matter if she likes me or not. As long as I can marry her, she will slowly like me!"
Mu Qing was so angry.
He actually wanted to force her to marry him?
He couldn''t even bear to force her to marry him!
Did knife Lee want to imprison Zhao Anan again?
No, no, no. He wouldn''t dare to do that now. Jing Yichen would not let him off easily.
"She can''t marry you. Just give up. She can only be my woman for the rest of her life. You''d better disappear from Anan''s eyes right now, or I''ll make sure you can''t get out of bed for a month. Don''t me me for being too cruel then!"
Knife Lee put his hands together and with a little force, his knuckles cracked, making people''s scalps tingle.
"You want to fight? It seems that you like Anan more than Zheng Jing. I wanted to fight with him just now, but he was too scared to fight me. That''s why I don''t think he''spetitive at all. He''s not even willing to put in any effort for a woman, so Anan won''t like him. She will only like strong men like me, who are willing to protect her and fight for her!"
Mu Qing had never known that the usually quiet knife Lee could be so talkative!
And every word he said was heart-piercing!
Zheng Jing was not scared. He had no reason to fight with knife Lee. He didn''t like Zhao Anan, and she had to help him get rid of his love rival.
Mu Qing was so angry that his face turned pale and his eyes seemed to be spitting fire.
He knew very well that Zhao Anan would never fall in love
with knife Lee, but he was still very annoyed when he heard that Zhao Anan would fall in love with a strong man like him.
Knife Lee kept calling her ''an an'' so intimately that people who didn''t know would think that they were close!
Mu Qing really wanted to beat knife Lee up to vent his anger.
But looking at knife Lee''s muscles, which were as strong as copper, he had no ce to start!
What was more, he was a doctor, not a thug. He would be asking for trouble if hepeted with knife Lee in strength!
However, in this case, it would be too easy for him to knock knife Lee out directly!
Chapter 718: I wont use her as a bet
Chapter 718: I won''t use her as a bet
"Mu Qing, didn''t you want to fight with me? Come on, I''ll give you three moves, you go first!"
Mu Qing couldn''t help but roll his eyes."Who wants to fight with you? I''m not fighting!"
"Didn''t you just say that you were going to beat me until I can''t get out of bed for a month? Why didn''t you keep your word! Let me tell you, no one has ever been able to beat me until I can''t get out of bed for a month. My defense and attack power are notparable to ordinary people!"
"I meant to make you unable to get out of bed for a month, but I didn''t do it by hitting you!"
"Then what are you going to rely on?" knife Lee''s eyes widened. By bragging?"
Mu Qing gritted his teeth in anger. He felt aggrieved, like a schr who had met a soldier.
"You are master Jing''s man, so I won''t make things difficult for you for master Jing''s sake. But if you want to be tortured, don''t me me!"
Mu Qing said and took out a few silver needles from somewhere. When he was about to take action, the door of the office was suddenly opened.
Zhao Anan walked out with sleepy eyes and looked at Mu Qing in surprise."What are you doing here? I was wondering why I kept hearing people quarreling outside, and I couldn''t even get a good nap! What are you two shouting about!"
Mu Qing put away the silver needles and said, "I''m free today, so I came to see you. "
Zhao Anan looked at him suspiciously and then at knife Lee, who was ready to attack. She frowned."Why does it look like he''s fine? Are you sure you''re here to see me and not to fight someone?"
Mu Qing gave her a warm smile."How could this be? I don''t fight with anyone, I''m here to see you!"
"No, Anan, he''s here to fight!" Knife Lee did not hold back at all.
"Just now, he said that he would beat me until I could not get out of bed for a month. But when I really wanted to beat him, he was like Zheng Jing. He did not dare to fight me. Anan, this kind of man is useless. He''s not as responsible as me, and he''s so cowardly at the critical moment. "
Mu Qing''s face was full of ck lines.
Who would fight with him like an idiot? He was so strong and naturally strong. The only one who could beat him in a fight with his bare hands was Lu, the non-human.
How dare she nder his image and call him useless in front of Zhao Anan?
In a while, he would let him have a taste of what it was like to be better off dead!
"Anan, go back to the office first. This is a fight between men. You''d better stay away from it, in case you get sshed with blood."
Zhao Anan was excited and her eyes lit up."You guys want to fight? I''ll be your judge! It will definitely be fair and just!"
Fighting is good!
She had not seen a fight in a long time!
Knife Lee must be good at fighting, and Mu Qing ... Although he was not good at fighting, he had many dirty tricks!
It was really hard to say who would win between the two of them!
Mu Qing was speechless when he saw Zhao Anan''s excited face.
How could he forge
t that Zhao Anan had always liked to fight and watch the fun? she was never the kind of person who was afraid of trouble.
If other girls were sshed with blood, they would have fainted immediately. But Zhao Anan was not afraid of blood at all. She might evenin that she did not bleed enough.
This girl was really bold. She wasn''t afraid that he would be killed by the burly knife Lee, but she still wanted to be the judge!
Who was he fighting with knife Lee for?
Mu Qing was so angry that his heart was about to explode. He said in disdain,"What fight? I''m not fighting! His skin is so thick that even if I take a bite, I''ll break my teeth. If I punch him, I''ll break my bones! I''m not a hothead, why should I fight him!"
Seeing that Zhao Anan liked them fighting, knife Lee did not want to let Mu Qing go, nor did he want to let go of the chance to show off his strength in front of the woman he liked.
He looked at Mu Qing with a serious expression and suggested,"Mu Qing, let''s have a fair fight. The winner will marry Anan and the loser will quit. What do you think?" he said.
Zhao Anan looked at Mu Qing subconsciously when she heard what knife Lee said. She wanted to know if he would fight for her.
Unexpectedly, Mu Qing was even more straightforward."I won ''t!"
"Are you going to give up on Anan?" knife Lee was stunned.
Mu Qing looked at him coldly and said,"Anan is a human, not a bet! I will never use her as a bet. It''s our business whether we win or lose in the fight. Anan has nothing to do with it. She can marry whoever she wants. It''s not fair to her if the winner marries her. "
Zhao Anan was startled. She had not thought of that.
She felt that it was fun for two men to fight for her, and it seemed reasonable for the winner to marry her. Of course, she subconsciously thought that Mu Qing would be the winner.
However, Mu Qing didn''t want to bet on her!
Zhao Anan felt a sweet feeling spreading in her heart. She looked at Mu Qing''s handsome face under the sun and her heart was beating fast.
She had been in love with Mu Qing for eleven years and the feeling of falling in love had been buried. Although they were still in love with each other, Zhao Anan would rarely be smitten with Mu Qing.
But now, when she looked at Mu Qing, she felt as if she had returned to her teenage years.
At that time, she was innocent and carefree. She was with Mu Qing every day and their days were as sweet as honey.
Her biggest worry every day was that Mu Qing had missed her a hundred times or a hundred and one times today. She had never thought that she would be separated from Mu Qing, and never thought that they would be separated by life and death one day.
Ever since she found out that she had cancer, she dared not to fall for Mu Qing.
She had been trying her best to suppress herself, for fear that she would not be able to control herself and would want to spend the rest of her life with Mu Qing.
Today, her heart was out of her control. It was beating so fast that she felt a little dizzy.
For the past 11 y
ears, Mu Qing''s face had not changed much. He was still handsome and charming, but he had be more mature and reserved. He had be a man who could kill a girl with a smile.
This man, on the other hand, was always considerate of her and had always ced her at the top of his heart, always bringing her unexpected surprises.
Zhao Anan showed a faint smile. She really wanted to kiss Mu Qing.
The annoying knife Lee was still standing there, an eyesore! It was such a pity that she could not kiss Mu Qing.
Zhao Anan was so smitten that she forgot that she was the one who had encouraged knife Lee to fight with Mu Qing.
Chapter 719-crushing defeat
Chapter 719-crushing defeat
Knife Lee''s way of thinking was totally different from Mu Qing ''s.
He felt that if two men were pursuing the same woman, and the woman needed a strong power to protect her, of course, the stronger one would be with the woman. There was no such thing as a bet.
No matter what, he had to fight with Mu Qing today.
They were all men, and wasn''t fighting the way to solve problems between men?
Could it be that they were still having a debate?
Knife Lee took a step forward and patted Mu Qing''s shoulder with his big hand. He said in a deep voice,"You have to fight today, even if you don''t want to! I''ll definitely have a fight with you. I want Anan to know that I''m the strongest!"
Fight, fight, fight, all he knew was to fight!
Mu Qing''s shoulder was almost numb from the p!
Using so much force, was he trying to cripple one of his arms or what?
He was so angry that he almost had smokeing out of his nose. Why did Jing Yichen send knife Lee to protect Zhao Anan?
Wasn''t he living a terrible life?
He couldn''t marry his wife, and he couldn''t go home. Every time his father saw him, he would scold him to death, and his parents would always shake their heads when they saw him.
Yang Muyan had been watching him in the dark and had been sending him love letters to the hospital every few days. He was so scared every time he received the letters that he was afraid that Zhao Anan would see them and cause a misunderstanding.
"Alright,e on, let''s fight!"
If he didn''t fulfill someone''s wish, he would be letting down his superb medical skills!
Knife Lee was very happy and smiled.""Good! You''re still a man, let''s fight!"
Mu Qing was very annoyed. What did he mean by "I am a man"? was it knife Lee''s decision? It was Zhao Anan who had the final say!
Knife Lee did not care about Mu Qing''s expression at all. He shouted "start!" And charged at Mu Qing.
Mu Qing was still angry. When he saw knife Leeing, he dodged nimbly and hit his chest with one hand.
Relying on his strong body, knife Lee didn''t even try to Dodge.
In his eyes, Mu Qing''s fancy martial arts were so weak that he would not cause any damage to himself.
Unfortunately, he was wrong.
He had underestimated theprehensive ability of a doctor. In terms of strength, Mu Qing was definitely no match for him, but fighting was not only about strength, but also many other factors.
He had never met an opponent like Mu Qing before, so he never knew that someone could take a life with just a small silver needle.
Modern society wasn''t the era of cold weapons. Everyone was used to using handguns. They wouldn''t use hidden weapons such as needles or throwing knives.
Mu Qing''s p seemed to be a light one, but it made knife Lee''s chest hurt.
After that, he realized that he couldn''t move at all. He was shocked and angry. He wanted to struggle, but his hands and feet werepletely out of his control! &n
bsp;
.
A few secondster, he fell into darkness and fell to the ground unconscious with a plop.
Dust rose from the ground, and the scene instantly fell into a strange silence.
The fight ended so quickly that no one could react. The tall and strong knife Lee had been defeated.
Zhao Anan stood there dumbly. She didn''t know how to react when she saw knife Lee, who had been shouting a moment ago, fall to the ground like a piece of wood.
The fall was really ... Loud!
Knife Lee fell, and the world was finally quiet!
Zhao Anan couldn''t hold back the smile on her face when she saw Mu Qing''s calm face. She took Mu Qing''s arm and said, "Didn''t you say you''re here to see me? Let''s go, I''ll show you around my office!"
Mu Qing felt very aplished. He had solved the problem of his woman''s pursuer effortlessly and had obviously won the favor of the beauty. He was beaming with joy.
"Sure. I haven''t been here before. I heard from Zheng Jing that your ce is as big as a Pce!"
The two of them walked into the office building like a couple, leaving knife Lee unconscious on the ground.
The twelve bodyguards who were standing outside the office building to protect Zhao Anan all had their faces twitching. They wanted tough, but they couldn ''t.
They had already warned knife Lee not to have any ideas about Zhao Anan, or he would die without knowing how.
Zhao Anan was Mu Qing''s woman, and anyone who had been around Jing Yichen for a long time would know that. Although they were not married, they were still deeply in love with each other. Mu Qing had always been protecting Zhao Anan and would never allow anyone to have their eyes on her.
Mu Qing seemed to be polite and easy-going, and he was always smiling. But he was definitely more capable than master Jing when it came to fighting. His silver needles and poison might not all be inserted into your body at any time, and then you would start to suffer and torture endlessly.
Master Jing would usually give a quick death, but Mu Qing would never let a person die so easily. He was a highly skilled doctor and would save a dying person and then continue to torture him.
Master Jing used to have stubborn captives, but he always threw them to Mu Qing and asked him to help him subdue them.
Those who knew Mu Qing''s power were all respectful to him. How dare he provoke him? That''s courting death!
Now, knife Lee was lying on the ground, and no one knew when he would wake up!
Two men who had a good rtionship with knife Lee walked out and dragged him into the car they drove.
She couldn''t just let him lie on the ground all the time. It was already autumn, and he was still wearing short sleeves. It was so cold!
Mu Qing would not let him pass out so easily. When knife Lee woke up, he would suffer.
In the office, Mu Qing was looking around Zhao Anan''s office.
Zheng Jing''s im that her office looked like a Pce was an exaggeration, but it was luxuriously decorated. The entire floor was Zhao Anan''s office area, with her own tea room, stu
dy, bedroom and even a gym.
It had been built and renovated by the two headmasters, but now it was Zhao Anan''s turn.
The real office area was also very spacious. It was at least 100 square meters and had a European design with a bit of retro style.
On the desk, there were piles of documents.
Mu Qing flipped it open and saw that Zhao Anan had made some marks on it. Some of them were just simple notes, while some were long.
Zhao Anan''s grades were average when she was in school, because she was too yful and didn''t pay much attention to her studies. But her writing was very beautiful.
Chapter 720: Knife Lee is also a handsome guy!
Chapter 720: Knife Lee is also a handsome guy!
Zhao Anan had never practiced writing, but she was good at it. She was born with this talent, and she had been proud of it.
Mu Qing looked at her familiar handwriting and the notes she had made on the documents and smiled.
He sat on her office chair and pulled Zhao Anan into his arms, making her sit on hisp.
"Why didn''t I know that you could be so hardworking?"
His voice was very gentle and his expression was full of praise. This made Zhao Anan feel very excited.
She didn''t mind that Mu Qing had hugged her in her office.
He was so handsome and gentle that Zhao Anan couldn''t resist him. She held Mu Qing''s neck and leaned into his arms. She said softly,"If I don''t work hard, everyone in the school will look down on me and think that I got in purely through connections."
Mu Qing wanted to say,"you did get in because of your connections." But seeing Zhao Anan''s serious look, he stopped himself fromughing.
But Zhao Anan knew why he wasughing. She pinched Mu Qing hard and said angrily, "Don''tugh!"
"Okay, okay, okay, I won''tugh. You didn''t get in with connections. You got in with your own strength. Is that okay?"
Mu Qing had no principles and sided with his woman, shamelessly twisting the truth.
But Zhao Anan was very satisfied. She loved to hear his lies.
"The abbess Miejue in school is especially annoying. They''re all old and yellow. They envy me for being young and beautiful! You always say that I got to where I am with my body! They said that I was with a powerful old man, so I could be the principal! They all call me vase Zhao in private. Hmph, don''t think I don''t know!"
Zhao Anan got angry when she thought of the rumors at school. She hated those old women.
"It''s true that my brother has power and influence, but how is he old? Hmph, if those lonely old women knew how handsome my brother was, they would definitely throw themselves at him shamelessly! You actually said that I got to where I am with my body. I''ve only had one man in my entire life, when have I ever tried to please another man?"
It was indeed very unpleasant to hear. Zhao Anan could not be med for getting angry, but Mu Qing was also getting angry.
However, Zhao Anan''s words,"I will only have one man in my life," made Mu Qing feel very happy.
He held Zhao Anan and kissed her on her red lips. "It''s okay, these people are just jealous. If they have the ability, they can also be the principal! Don''t bother with these people, just do your own thing. "
Zhao Anan pushed him away and stood up. "Don''t mess around, this is my office!"
If he had known, he wouldn''t have kissed her and hugged her for a while longer.
Mu Qing felt a little regretful, but he didn''t show it on his face. He kept smiling.
Zhao Anan had found someone she couldin to, so she told him all the grievances that she had suffered at school.
"All of you have nothing better to do than eat! They only know how to nitp
ick every day. How can I let them have their way? I''m the principal, I can''t embarrass my brother, and I can''t be looked down upon by those people! They''re waiting to see me make a fool of myself. Hmph, I''m going to do it well and piss them off!"
"Don''t those old men and women have a lot of free time? Haha, so I found some work for them. I fired the school''s janitors, and now every one of them has to clean the ce. If they don''t do it well, their bonuses will be deducted and their ranks will be demoted! Hmph, they want to fight with me? see if I don''t kill them!"
.
Zhao Anan had a lot of tricks up her sleeve.
These higher-ups in the school were used to being pampered. If they were to clean up the ce themselves, they would probably be aggrieved to death, right?
Mu Qing said with a smile,"you can tell me if you want to make fun of them. I will give you some powder and give them a little each. The women will have red pimples all over their faces, and the men will have impotent. It will be a good way to relieve your hatred!"
Zhao Anan suddenly burst intoughter.
As the two of them were talking, a scream suddenly came from outside.
Zhao Anan opened the window and looked out, but Mu Qing was sitting there, motionless.
He didn''t need to look to know that it was knife Lee.
He must have woken up by now, but the silver needle in his chest must have worked.
Sure enough, Zhao Anan turned around and asked,"What did you do to knife Lee?"
"It''s nothing, just a small punishment. "
"He''ll be fine, right? Why do I hear him screaming so miserably? won''t he die?"
"Anan, you seem to care a lot about knife Lee!" Mu Qing frowned.
Zhao Anan didn''t catch the jealousy in his words. She turned to knife Lee. "He''s quite pitiful. I beat him up today, but he still thinks I''m good to him. I don''t know how much he''s suffered in the past. With so many scars on his body, he must be fighting all day."
Mu Qing''s face darkened.
He actually felt heartache for knife Lee''s suffering in the past?
She didn''t feel sorry for him at all. He didn''t even have lunch this afternoon and was busy dealing with knife Lee!
Mu Qing pulled Zhao Anan over and closed the window with a bang.
Zhao Anan said unhappily before she saw the situation of knife Lee."What are you doing? I can''t see if you close the window!"
"I''m right in front of you, why are you looking at other men? Out of the thirteen men out there, which one of them is as good looking as me?"
Zhao Anan didn''t know whether tough or cry. How could the thirteen people outside bepared to Mu Qing?
Seeing that Mu Qing''s eyes were burning with anger, she finally realized that he was jealous.
She rolled her eyes and said without a care,""The 12 bodyguards my brother gave me are all very handsome and powerful. One of them can take on ten of them without a problem. Knife Lee is even more powerful. He can fight a hundr
ed of them. I heard that even Tiger and Lee duo were no match for him. Hmm ... Although knife Lee is a little strong, he''s actually not bad looking. If he tidies himself up, he can be considered a handsome guy!"
Mu Qing was so angry that he almost died of anger. This stupid girl called him handsome on purpose!
Of course, he knew that Zhao Anan wouldn''t like those guys. In fact, Zhao Anan had high standards. She wouldn''t like any ordinary guy. Maybe it was because she had a handsome cousin who was hated by both men and gods, but she was very resistant to handsome men.
But he still felt sour in his heart, because knife Lee was interested in Zhao Anan.
Chapter 721: The consequences of snatching a woman from a doctor
Chapter 721: The consequences of snatching a woman from a doctor
Mu Qing held Zhao Anan''s slim waist tightly and sucked on her lips until she could barely breathe. He then let go of her and said,"You can only look at me, no other men, not even knife Lee! Stay away from him in the future and don''t give him any good looks! You''re not allowed to feel sorry for him, you can only feel sorry for me, do you hear me!"
Mu Qing had not forgotten that knife Lee and Zhao Anan had lived together for half a year.
It was not a small matter. Although Zhao Anan had always said that knife Lee was a man of the rules and had no intention to take advantage of her, Mu Qing did not believe that knife Lee had no feelings for Zhao Anan.
He was a man, and he understood men''s psychology the best.
If a man was not moved by a woman who was good in all aspects, he was either gay or a eunuch!
Zhao Anan had a beautiful face and a good figure. She was lively and cheerful. Knife Lee had been with her all the time. It was normal for him to like her. It would be a problem if he didn ''t.
Mu Qing didn''t want to have a rival in love.
He was not only going to deal with knife Lee, but also to stop Zhao Anan from having any good feelings for him.
Humph, no one can steal my woman!
Zhao Anan couldn''t help but giggle when she heard Mu Qing''s overbearing tone. She didn''t care that her lips were red and swollen because of Mu Qing''s kiss. She just thought that Mu Qing was very cute when he was jealous.
"If you can go on a blind date with mi Xiaoxiao, why can''t I have a suitor? Besides, don''t think too highly of yourself. You''re not rted to me, so you can''t interfere with what I do!"
Mu Qing''s mouth twitched. He had to jump into the pit he had dug himself!
No, it was Shangguan ning who had dug this hole. Now, he had been killed.
"Mi Xiaoxiao was introduced to me by her family. I''m only going to show Grandpa respect. We have nothing to do with each other. We''re talking about knife Lee now!"
"What''s wrong with knife Lee? I''m not bad, I''m loyal and capable. I''m not like someone who''s half-hearted. I''m determined to marry me, so do you think I should agree?"
Mu Qing gritted his teeth so hard that they made a creaking sound, which scared Zhao Anan so much that she pretended to be pitiful."What are you doing? are you going to eat people?"
"Zhao Anan, if you dare to challenge my bottom line again, I will F * ck you right now! Let everyone here know that you are my woman, and if anyone dares to have any ideas about you, they will all be finished!"
His eyes were slightly red, and the veins on his forehead were bulging. His expression was a little stern, and he looked really angry.
Zhao Anan did not dare to joke anymore.
Mu Qing had said that he would F * ck her here, and he was really capable of that.
Usually, no matter how much trouble she made, as long as she said that she wanted to be with another man, he would be very angry.
Zhao Anan pouted and refused to speak. She red at him from time to time, as if she was too angry to say anything.
Mu Qing held her for a long time before he could suppress his anger.
She had to deal with this knife
Lee as soon as possible. If he followed Zhao Anan and protected her every day, she might not be able to handle it.
He pinched Zhao Anan''s full chest and said in a low voice, "It''s fine if you don''t want to marry me, but you''re not allowed to be nice to other men either. Otherwise, I''ll kill every single one of them. You''re mine, you hear me?"
Zhao Anan pped away his hand and snorted."I didn''t hear you! What does it have to do with me who you want to kill?"
.
Mu Qing knew that she was being stubborn, so he let go of her and turned to leave."I didn''t even have lunch beforeing here. You''re so good. You don''t even care about me. I had no choice but to get drunk alone."
Zhao Anan called out from behind him,"You can go and find your Xiaoxiao! She''ll definitely be willing to apany you!"
Mu Qing turned around and red at her. Then he walked out of her office with a smile.
Outside the office building, knife Lee was still screaming at a fixed frequency.
Mu Qing walked to the side of the van and saw him curled up in pain, but he didn''t show any mercy."From now on, it''ll hurt for an hour every day. There''s still half an hour left today. Carry on! How dare you have designs on Anan. Next time, I will not only make your heart hurt, but I will make your whole body hurt!"
Having said that, Mu Qing got into his white Jaguar and drove away.
He found a clean fast food restaurant and had something to eat before he drove to Jing Yichen''s house.
Jing Yichen had gone to thepany this morning and went home after finishing all the work.
He was so addicted to teaching Jing Rui that he wanted to keep Jing Rui by his side and teach him.
Jing Yichen was teaching Jing Rui French when Mu Qing arrived.
Shangguan ning was also talking to the father and son in French.
Mu Qing thought that he had entered the wrong door when he entered.
Was it really good for this couple to be like this? Jing Rui could not even speak Chinese at such a young age. If he was taught French and German not long ago, would there really be no garbled words?
Well, he actually wanted to say,"what are you two talking about? I don''t understand a single word!"
Shangguan ning greeted Mu Qing with a smile, but in French.
Mu Qing sat on the sofa and said with a bitter smile,"Sister-inw, I have a low IQ. It''s easier for you to speak Chinese to me!"
He sat in Jing Yichen''s house and felt that he would lower the average IQ of the world.
"Alright, stop being so modest. If your IQ is low, who else would have a high IQ?" Shangguan ning made him some tea and went to the kitchen to wash some fruits.
Not knowing a foreignnguage did not mean that Mu Qing was not smart. He had spent all his energy on medical research and had no time for other things.
She could speak French only because she had worked hard on it, not because she was smart.
But Jing Yichen didn''t agree with Shangguan ning''s opinion. He said calmly,"His intelligence is a problem, you don''t have tofort him."
Well, master Jing, I''m used to being beaten by you, and I can ept it. &
nbsp;
In front of Jing Yichen, Mu Qing really felt that he was not smart enough.
The two of them weren''t on the same level, so he didn''t want to be abused.
Mu Qing liked Jing Rui very much. His skin was fair and his facial features were beautiful, especially his big eyes. They were clear and bright, as if they could speak.
He had inherited all the good qualities of his parents. He was as beautiful as a doll, and his eyshes were much longer than his.
Moreover, he was still a child. He was not as arrogant as his father. He was very well-behaved and never cried or made a fuss. He was very likable!
Chapter 722: A tyrannical assist
Chapter 722: A tyrannical assist
Mu Qing took Jing Rui into his arms. Jing Rui didn''t react, but Jing Yichen was very unhappy.
"If you like a son, you can have one yourself. Don''t touch my son!"
Mu Qing was speechless. This man not only forbade people from touching him, but also forbade people from touching his wife, Shangguan ning. And now, he forbade people from touching his son too. He couldn''t stand it!
Jing Yichen knew that Zhao Anan didn''t want to marry him, let alone have a child with him, but he still added salt to his wound. He was such a cold and inhuman man!
He didn''t care about Jing Yichen''s face. He held Jing Rui and spun around, making Jing Rui giggle.
Mu Qing was so happy that his smile was brighter than Jing Rui ''s."Hahaha, Ruirui likes me!"
He actually liked children and really wanted a child of his own.
Now that she had Jing Rui in her arms, she wanted to take him home.
Of course, he could only think about it.
Mu Qing felt that he would have died a hundred times over if he could kill with his sharp eyes, not to mention taking Jing Rui back home.
He only teased Jing Rui for two minutes before Jing Yichen took Jing Rui back to his room."Jing Rui is not used to being carried by strangers. Stay away from him."
Mu Qing was speechless. How did he be a stranger?
He came often, okay? He had checked Jing Rui''s body several times. Jing Rui was very happy to be in his arms.
Jing Yichen took his son back into his arms and finally felt a bit better.
He was always unhappy when he saw Jing Rui in someone else''s arms.
So ... He wanted Mu Qing to leave as soon as possible.
"What are you here for?"
Mu Qing wouldn''te to their house for no reason. He had a lot of things to do in the hospital and he was busy with developing his and Zhao Anan''s embryo. There must be a reason for his visit.
Mu Qing was so engrossed in ying with Jing Rui that he almost forgot the purpose of his visit.
"Master Jing, can you get knife Lee away from Anan?"
"Why? Knife Lee is a steady man, capable and capable. He is very suitable to protect Anan, and he likes Anan, so he will be more careful in protecting her. What are you not satisfied with?"
"You know that he likes Anan?" Mu Qing asked, bbergasted.
"Yes, I know." Jing Yichen nodded.
"If you knew, why did you still let him stay with Anan? Are you asking him to steal my woman?"
"Isn''t it good to have one more person who likes Anan? Since you''re so busy, you can let knife Lee take care of Anan. It''s the best of both worlds. "
Jing Yichen certainly knew that knife Lee liked Zhao Anan.
He was the one who had told Jing Yichen about this and he was the one who had told him that he wanted to marry Zhao Anan.
.
Jing Yichen had let knife Lee protect Zhao Anan because he wanted to give him a chance. Zhao Anan had thought too much of her brother. Knife Lee had no ulterior motives in pursuing her. What he was plotting was something else that had not aroused her suspicion.
It was a good thing to have one more person
pursuing Zhao Anan. Jing Yichen didn''t mind giving Mu Qing some pressure.
His men were all talented. In his eyes, knife Lee was a good man who could at least protect Zhao Anan with his own power in times of danger.
Mu Qing was about to cry.
It turned out that Jing Yichen was the one who sent knife Lee to Zhao Anan.
"No, no, no, master Jing, you can''t do that!" Mu Qing shook his head immediately."Anan only needs other people to protect her. She doesn''t need a general like knife Lee!" It''s better for him to stay by your side and protect you and sister-inw!"
"He has the right to pursue Anan. What, you don''t have confidence in yourself?"
This wasn''t a matter of confidence. This was a man''s instinctive rejection of his love rival!
Of course, Mu Qing didn''t think that knife Lee was his rival in love. He was not even qualified to be his rival in love.
Mu Qing sat on the sofa with a headache. Suddenly, he thought of something and said,"Master Jing, did you do that on purpose?"
Jing Yichen must have felt that he was putting pressure on him because he was not going to marry Zhao Anan.
Jing Yichen didn''t deny it. He still had no expression on his face. But he turned to look at Shangguan ning who was cutting fruit in the kitchen and said,"Ning has been worried about you, but you two are not worried. Her good intentions are not rewarded, so I took action on her behalf."
"It''s a misunderstanding, master Jing! I''ve always been very grateful to you, sister-inw. Recently, an ''an has changed a lot. I know it''s all thanks to you and sister-inw. In the past, an'' an didn''t like to be with me this much. Now, she would rather not go out to y than to be with me. This change is obvious and sudden. It must be because of the shock. I''m just afraid that Anan won''t be able to take it if this continues, so I started to treat her well again. "
Mu Qing said, feeling a little ashamed.
He was a soft-hearted man and couldn''t bear to see Zhao Anan cry. He didn''t want to make her sad, so he ruined the n.
But he had noticed the change in Zhao Anan.
When he used to eat with Zhao Anan, she would not pay attention to what he liked to eat. She would only pick what she liked and leave the ones she didn''t like to him.
But now, she would pay attention to what he liked to eat. The next time they had a meal, she would help him order his favorite food.
She had changed a lot in the details and even started to get jealous because he would help other female patients check their private ces and their entire bodies.
Jing Yichen didn''t want to get involved in Zhao Anan and Mu Qing''s Affairs at all. He had always thought that they were both adults who were responsible for their own actions and knew what they wanted. If they didn''t want to get married, why should he urge them to get married?
He had a cold personality and never cared about other people''s lives. He only wanted to live his own life well.
Although Zhao Anan was his cousin, he could help her settle all the troubles she had caused, find the best doctors for her treatment and give her money to spend. But he would not care about her love life.
But Shangguan ning wanted Zhao Anan and Mu Qing to be together, and
it had taken a lot of effort. He had to help her to make his wife feel at ease.
He had not arranged for knife Lee to protect Zhao Anan. It was knife Lee who had suggested to protect Zhao Anan. He was just going with the flow.
It was almost impossible for Zhao Anan to have a change of heart, but Mu Qing would definitely feel a sense of urgency if there were otherpetitors. He would not feel at ease until he married Zhao Anan.
Shangguan ning had only thought of forcing Zhao Anan to marry Mu Qing, but she had never thought that they would still not get married after 11 years. Zhao Anan was not the only one with a problem, Mu Qing was also a problem.
Chapter 723-conspiracy
Chapter 723-conspiracy
In the face of love, it was not advisable to blindly endure and give in.
Sometimes, it was necessary to be overbearing and strong, especially for men. They could not be too gentle, or they would lose some things.
All women had a feminine side, and they needed a strong man to conquer them.
Mu Qing wasn''t strong enough, or rather, he didn''t want to be too strong in front of Zhao Anan.
Forcing Mu Qing and Zhao Anan at the same time might work faster.
Anyway, Jing Yichen felt that it was not a bad thing for knife Lee to be pursuing Zhao Anan.
Jing Yichen didn''t care who Zhao Anan married.
As long as she was willing to get married and find a home for the rest of her life, Zhao Zhao and the olddy would be at ease.
"If you have the ability, then go and take Anan down. If you don ''t, then just wait for knife Lee to take Anan down. It''s useless to talk to me about this!"
Jing Yichen said rudely,"don''t touch knife Lee. He is there to protect Anan. If yang Muyan''s men are there, only he can protect Anan." If anything happens to Anan, you can exin it to her mother and grandmother. "
Mu Qing left with a bitter face.
He was in a bad mood and asked Zheng Jing toe out for a drink.
"Master Jing is so mean. He knew that knife Lee liked Anan, but still sent him to her. As the saying goes, the pavilion closest to the water enjoys the moonlight first. How can I be at ease when he is around Anan all day?"
Zheng Jing asked the same question as Jing Yichen,"You don''t have confidence in yourself?"
Mu Qing didn''t know what to say. It took him a while toe up with an appropriate metaphor.
"What would you feel if a man keeps pestering Zheng Lun and insists on marrying her?"
Zheng Jing thought for a while and finally understood Mu Qing''s feelings."Uh ... I''ll want to beat that stinky brat into a pulp!"
But he still supported Jing Yichen''s decision.
"I think master Jing is right! You can only understand what you should do when there''spetition. Otherwise, you''ll always think that Anan is yours, even if she doesn''t marry you. She''ll still be yours no matter where she goes. "
"Are you still my good brother?" Mu Qing punched Zheng Jing.
"I''m your good brother, that''s why I''m telling you this. It was not like knife Lee had no chance at all. He had been trying so hard to get Zhao Anan. He wasn''t afraid of difficulties at all, and he only wanted to marry her! Anan had lived with him for half a year, and they were already very familiar with each other. Knife Lee doesn''t have any serious shorings. Although he isn''t as handsome as you, he is shameless!"
Mu Qing spurted out the wine he had just drunk. He coughed and patted Zheng Jing on the shoulder."Bro, you''re absolutely right, he''s really shameless! You''re too thick-skinned!"
"No matter what people do, they are afraid of being shameless. Once they are shameless, they can seed in anything! It was even more so when chasing women! You''d better hurry up and marry an ''an! I''ve spent more time in school than you, and I heard that several male teachers are pursuing her, giving her flowers and movie tick
ets every day. You should have a sense of crisis!"
"What?" "Why didn''t you tell me about such an important thing?" Mu Qing was furious.
"Don''t worry. Anan didn''t take it back, did she? if she had any ns, I would have told you long ago!"
"That won''t do either! You must tell me if any man approaches Anan in the future, in case someone tries to touch her!"
"Alright, alright, alright, I''ll tell you everything in the future! But I won''t help you block that knife Lee. He''s too strong. I''m no match for him. He''s a human-shaped machine with infinite strength. You can deal with him yourself!"
Speaking of knife Lee, Mu Qing became angry again.
.
Jing Yichen didn''t allow him to touch knife Lee, and had asked him to keep Zhao Anan safe, in case yang Muyan sent someone to kill Zhao Anan.
Today''s effort was in vain. He had to go to school again tomorrow and take out the needles from knife Lee''s body.
Jing Yichen was torturing him with an open scheme!
But he couldn''t figure out this plot at all. Compared to love, Zhao Anan''s life was more important. Knife Lee''s presence would make her much safer.
"Also, sister-inw said that the n has been brought forward. I will report to Anan''s ce every day for the next few days. The big move will be in a week. Don''t drop the ball then!"
Mu Qing thought that Shangguan ning''s n might not work on Zhao Anan, so he didn''t take it to heart.
He was having a headache on how to solve knife Lee''s problem.
"Don''t worry. If it''s sessful, I won''t let you down. It''s been my wish to marry Anan, but I''ll have to trouble you!"
"Tsk, we brothers don''t need to talk about hard work! Come, cheers!"
The two brothers were drunk and didn''t go their separate ways until midnight.
Mu Qing saw a letter on the table when he got back to the apartment.
Seeing the familiar pink envelope, Mu Qing sobered up immediately.
Yang Muyan again!
In the past two months, she had already sent him at least a dozen letters! The letter was full of ambiguous words, which could easily cause misunderstandings.
Jing Yichen had already told her that yang Muyan was not in A city. Family Jing and family Ji had searched A city together, but they could not find her.
Ji Bo had broken her ribs and she should have recovered in two months.
Now that he refused to show his face, he must be nning a bigger scheme.
Besides, there would be deaths in family Ji every once in a while, which proved that yang Muyan had never stopped her actions.
Zhao Anan was really not safe at the moment.
Mu Qing read the letter carefully. Although it was full of mushy words, he was afraid that there might be some important information in it, so he read it very carefully.
Mu Qing burned the letter after reading it.
He couldn''t keep it. If Zhao Anan saw it in the future, she would be angry again.
The next morning, Mu Qing didn''t go to work in the hospital. Instead, he drove to Universi
ty of X.
He met Zheng Jing at the gate of the University of X.
The two of them greeted each other. Zheng Jing stayed outside while Mu Qing entered the school.
It was 8:30 am when Zhao Anan went to work, but she would usually be here at 8:15 am.
She was already in the office when Mu Qing arrived.
There were two rows of bodyguards standing outside the office building, and in front of them was knife Lee, who was like a small mountain.
Mu Qing looked at knife Lee''s majestic appearance and felt that it was very eye-catching. He wanted to make him disappear.
Chapter 724: A Rose Garden
Chapter 724: A Rose Garden
Suppressing his anger, Mu Qing stepped forward and said to knife Lee,"For master Jing''s sake, I will take the needle out for you today. But you''re absolutely not allowed to have any ideas about her!"
"What?" knife Lee was surprised."Did you put a needle into my body yesterday?"
He had thought about it for a long time yesterday, but he still couldn''t figure out how he lost!
Given Mu Qing''s small body size, he was definitely no match for him. How could he have fainted with just one p? furthermore, his chest had been in pain for a long time. He was sweating so much that he was about to copse!
It turned out that Mu Qing had won with the embroidery needle!
Although Mu Qing had won, knife Lee was not convinced!
"Let''s fight fair and square today. Don''t use those little tricks again. I''ll let you have a few moves first!"
Why did they have to fight?
He wasn''t done yet!
Mu Qing was so angry that he wanted to poison knife Lee to death right now!
He had already made a big concession bying to take out the silver needles today, but this guy was still insatiable!
"Fight my ass!" Mu Qing said angrily. Just like you, how many people can beat you in strength? I''m a doctor, not a bodyguard. Am I stupid topete with you in strength? If you keep talking, I''ll leave those needles in your body and you''ll die from the pain every day. A monthter, you''ll bleed to death from all seven orifices!"
Thest sentence was just to scare knife Lee.
He had never wanted to kill knife Lee. He didn''t deserve to die for falling in love with Zhao Anan.
However, knife Lee took it seriously.
He never joked with others and always took his words seriously. Therefore, he basically couldn''t tell that others were joking.
Yesterday''s pain was still vivid in her mind. If she was in pain every day, she would really die!
He had been in pain for an entire hour. When the pain stopped, he didn''t even have the strength to walk. After a night''s rest, he had finally recovered half of his strength.
If it happened every day, he would lose all his strength and how could he protect Zhao Anan?
Knife Lee stopped talking and stood in front of Mu Qing, waiting for him to take out the needles.
Mu Qing was very skilled, but the process of removing the needle was still painful. Even with knife Lee''s endurance, he was sweating and his face was pale.
After removing the needles, Mu Qing threatened knife Lee a few times, but knife Lee did not say a word. He seemed to have returned to his usual quiet self.
Mu Qing finally felt better when knife Lee stopped talking about marrying Zhao Anan.
He pushed open the door of Zhao Anan''s office and walked in.
In the spacious and luxurious office, Zhao Anan was reading some documents.
Recently, University of X was participating in the National outstanding University evaluation, which would directly affect the University of X''s national and global ranking. The entire University attached great importance to it.
The people below submitted all kinds of information, some of which described the advantages of the school, while some of which were about asking her for money. Some of the school''s equipment was outdated and old, and needed to be reced. Otherwise, if
the hardware couldn''t be improved, it would be useless no matter how good the soft conditions were.
Zhao Anan was no longer a newbie. She knew a lot about the school.
Some people really wanted to improve the school''s overall strength, while some people were taking the opportunity to make money!
Their offers were obviously unreasonable. They were way higher than the market price. Zhao Anan would not approve such a project.
Zhao Anan, a rich girl, had no idea about the price of goods.
For example, she wanted to buy a batch of projectors for teaching, which could cost thousands or tens of thousands of Yuan. Zhao Anan had never bought such a thing and she didn''t know how much it would be reasonable.
Fortunately, he had a mentor by his side, who knew everything about this kind of thing.
He knew what price he should purchase and the approximate quantity.
He also taught Zhao Anan that when she asked her subordinates to do something, she had to get something in return. No one would want to do something without any benefits.
Under his guidance, Zhao Anan had grown up quickly. She was not only able to deal with all kinds of interpersonal rtionships, but also started to understand some rules of the business world.
Of course, Zhao Anan had been in a tight financial situation recently and she was more sensitive to money than anyone else. She would not be nice to anyone who asked her for money.
A serious woman was always the most beautiful.
Under the warm morning sun, Zhao Anan was looking through the documents with her head down. She was writing in circles with a pen.
Mu Qing had given her that fountain pen several years ago. She didn''t expect that she still had it.
She was still wearing a ck business suit, but she had changed the shirt inside into a light gray one.
Her skin was fair, and she looked particrly solemn in this color. Sitting on the ck leather chair, she had the aura of a leader.
Mu Qing felt very pleased. The girl who had run away from home for fun was now able to take charge of things on her own.
"Principal Zhao, can Ie in and sit?" he knocked on the door with a smile.
Zhao Anan looked up and saw Mu Qing. A trace of joy shed across her eyes, but she said seriously,"Please enter!"
Mu Qing walked to her slowly with his hands in his pockets. "You''re so serious about your work that I''m embarrassed to disturb you. However, I feel that you seem to like being a principal rather than being forced to be so serious. "
"If I''m not in a position, I won''t meddle in politics. I naturally have to do my best in this position. Doctor mu, what brings you here today?"
Yo, after being a principal for a few days, even his words have be so genteel!
How could he not know how much ink she had in her stomach?
Mu Qing smiled and said,"I''m here to tell you that if there are any male teachers or professors in your school who give you flowers, you should throw them away." If you want it, I''ll buy it for you!"
So it was for this!
Zhao Anan deliberately said in a disapproving tone, "I''m as beautiful as a flower, so it''s normal to have suitors! Of course, I''ll ept the flowers, but if it''s you ... I won''t ept it! Unless you give me a Rose Garden!"
<
p> "You want the Rose Garden, right?" Mu Qing pinched her chin and said seriously,"No problem, I''ll send you off!"
It was just a garden, he could still afford it!
As long as Zhao Anan liked it, he would pick one for her.
Zhao Anan pped away Mu Qing''s hand and red at him."Why don''t you go to work? You''re here early in the morning to tease me! Hurry up and leave, I''m busy here and haven''t read a lot of information. I''ll definitely have to stay up all night today!"
"You want me to help you?"
"You''re not going to the hospital? No surgery today? You don''t need to treat the patient?"
Chapter 725: Another rival in love
Chapter 725: Another rival in love
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows and bragged like a young master, "I''m the director, the boss of the hospital! I''ll go if I want to, and I won''t go if I don''t want to, who can control me?"
Zhao Anan exposed his lie without hesitation."Your position as the director doesn''t seem stable at all. The old man changes people just like that. If you don''t like it, you might be fired again!"
"How could I! Family MU''s Hospital is mine, even the legal representative is me. You don''t need to worry at all. Now, let me help you organize the information. Although I am not as smart as master Jing, I am more than enough to crush you!"
Zhao Anan was very satisfied to be with Mu Qing. Although she didn''t agree with Mu Qing''s words, she still handed the files to him happily, asking him to help her read and deal with them.
Compared to a while ago when she had to meet Mu Qing sneakily and get scolded by her grandma, she was so happy to be able to see Mu Qing often now.
Mu Qing didn''t n to stay with Zhao Anan for the whole day. He just wanted to see her and leave.
But after one look, he didn''t want to leave.
Zheng Jing waited outside for a long time, but Mu Qing did note out. He knew that he would note out.
He shook his head helplessly but also felt relieved. It seemed that he didn''t need to show up today and he could go home to apany Zheng Lun.
When yang Muyan poisoned Zheng Lunst time, he couldn''t find anything unusual, which made him very vignt.
He was the most outstanding Criminal Police officer with first-ss case-solving abilities. There were very few cases that he could not solve.
So far, there had only been one case where he had not found any evidence to support Shen lingbing''s case.
Yang Muyan was the mastermind behind the case!
At that time, she had used a very clever and brilliant method to frame Jing Yiran for Shen lingbing''s death, which had pushed family Jing into the eye of the storm.
Jing Yichen even had to hold a press conference to rify that Jing Yiran did not kill anyone.
Zheng Jing had not solved the two cases that yang Muyan had been involved in. This was enough to prove that yang Muyan''s intelligence and schemes were far beyond his.
Yang Muyan had been known as the "child prodigy" since she was a child, and it was not an undeserved reputation.
She had a photographic memory since she was young and learned everything quickly. The teachers that the Yang family hired for her would change every two months, and all the teachers praised yang Muyan.
That was how her title as a child prodigy came about.
When yang Muyan grew up, her reputation as a child prodigy was gradually overshadowed by her ugliness. Her ws in appearance made her outstanding talent and intelligence overlooked.
But now, Zheng Jing had truly understood yang Muyan''s power.
The fact that she was able to fight against Jing Yichen for so long without dying proved that she was capable of protecting herself.
This also meant that it was really easy for yang Muyan to kill someone.
Luckily, Zheng Lun was not yang Muyan''s main target. The most dangerous person would be Zhao Anan, or maybe Shangguan ning.
Zheng Lun was not of much use to yang Muyan. They had never even met each other, and
had no grudges against each other.
It was not worth it for yang Muyan to kill Zheng Lun.
Otherwise, she wouldn''t have pointed out that Zheng Lun had been drugged.
Zheng Jing was thinking about yang Muyan on the way home, while Zhao Anan was having a new argument.
Because, when Mu Qing was still in Zhao Anan''s office, a male teacher hade to give her flowers.
"Anan, who is this man beside you?"
Seeing Mu Qing in Zhao Anan''s office, the male teacher was a little suspicious and asked.
He had been pursuing Zhao Anan for more than a month, but he had not made any progress.
He was a typical rich man''s son, and his name was Wen Kang. He came to University of X to be a teacher just for fun. After all, the job of a university teacher was very easy and he had a high social status. Although the sry was average, his family did notck money. There were beautiful women everywhere in the school. It was heaven for male teachers!
But after Zhao Anan came to the University of X, Wen Kang changed his target.
He knew clearly that Zhao Anan had gotten the position of principal through her connections, but it was definitely not what the rumors said. She had gotten the position through her family.
In other words, Zhao Anan was also a rich girl, and a real one at that. The words and actions that she had revealed inadvertently all proved that she had grown up in a life of luxury.
When other women saw his Lamborghini that was worth more than four million Yuan, they would be amazed and would be very attentive to him.
Zhao Anan was the only one who didn''t react at all. It wasn''t that she didn''t know about Lamborghinis, but that she didn''t like them at all.
It was because her car was a Rolls-Royce Phantom worth tens of millions, and there was more than one.
Zhao Anan was different from the pretentious female teachers and the innocent female students.
She had the charm of a mature woman and the youth of a young girl. The two temperaments were not contradictory at all. Instead, it made people feel that it was very rare and very eager to conquer her.
Moreover, her looks were off the charts, and she could easily beat the so-called campus Belle of University of X.
She never put on makeup, but her skin was so good that it looked like water could be squeezed out.
She was 1.7 meters tall, with long and straight legs, big breasts, and a thin waist. Anyone who saw her would have a nosebleed.
She also had a good personality. She didn''t have the arrogance of a rich girl, nor did she have the cowardice and inferiority of an ordinary woman.
He was a little hot-tempered sometimes, but that was what wenkang liked.
If she didn''t have a temper, she wouldn''t be called a woman. She would be a maid.
Moreover, Zhao Anan was the principal, which was such a respectable title.
Conquering such a woman would give a man an unprecedented sense of aplishment. If he could marry her, he would have a lot of face in front of the whole school!
Look, I''ve even taken down the principal! No one can resist my charm!
Wen Kang thought that he was the best among all thepetitors in the school. It was only a matter of time before he got Zhao Anan.&n
bsp;
But why did the man sitting next to Zhao Anan give him such a sense of danger?
Wen Kang was not the only one who had a sense of crisis. Mu Qing had the same sense of crisis.
He hadn''t even dealt with knife Lee, and now there was another one!
Sending flowers in front of him, was he trying to anger him to death?
Mu Qing suppressed his anger and sat down beside Zhao Anan. He looked at Wen Kang and said, "I''m Anan''s fianc. What''s up?"she asked.
Fianc?!"
Wen Kang was surprised. He had never heard that Zhao Anan had a fianc.
Chapter 726-overbearing love rival
Chapter 726-overbearing love rival
He had even asked Zhao Anan if she had a boyfriend. Zhao Anan had said that she didn ''t.
Was this person her self-proimed fianc?
Zhao Anan''s eyes were wide open as she questioned Mu Qing''s words."Whose fianc are you? I''m not your fiance!"
Mu Qing looked at her with a sharp gaze."Shut up, or I''ll throw you out. We''re already engaged, don''t tell me you''ve forgotten?"
Zhao Anan was about to deny it, but she swallowed her words when she saw Mu Qing''s scary look.
Fianc, so be it. It was good that Mu Qing sent wenkang away, so that he wouldn''te to her office every day. He was dressed so mboyantly and only liked red, just like Jing Yiran.
Wen Kang was not stupid. He had seen the interaction between the two of them just now and knew that they must be very familiar with each other.
Zhao Anan was the most powerful person in the school and no one dared to order her around.
But the man next to her was asking her to shut up, and Zhao Anan had to shut up.
This was not her style at all!
She was usually very well-off in school. She would teach whoever she didn''t like a lesson and had a bad temper! When did she be so obedient like a kitten?
Wen Kang''s face darkened.
It was obvious that Zhao Anan had a special rtionship with this man. Even if he was not her fianc, he must be a very close male friend or even her boyfriend.
She just didn''t know who he was to be able to move Zhao Anan.
Wen Kang looked at Mu Qing''s light blue id shirt, which was of top quality, and his handsome face. He couldn''t help but feelpetitive.
"You''re not Anan''s fianc, right? I''m Wen Kang, a member of the Wen family. What''s your name? Which family did hee from? How much was the family''s wealth? What''s your job? How old are you ..."
Before Wen Kang could finish, Mu Qing interrupted him.
"Anan, can you enter the principal''s office whenever you want? What was knife Lee doing? were the thirteen of them blind? They let this person in, are they all tired of living?"
He was sharp-tongued and arrogant. He was even more arrogant than wenkang. Both Zhao Anan and wenkang were stunned by his words.
Mu Qing had been very arrogant when he was young. But he became the director of family MU''s Hospital and had been suppressed by mu Wensheng to study medical skills after the failure of his rtionship with Zhao Anan.
Now that someone hade to challenge him, how could he let him off so easily?
Comparing family backgrounds? Comparing work? Comparing abilities?
He wasn''t afraid ofpeting with anyone except for Jing Yichen, who was an inhuman.
Family mu was one of the richest and most prestigious families in A city. Although they were not in the top ten in terms of assets, they were definitely in the top three in terms of reputation!
He had never seen Wen Kang before. He was definitely not the heir of a big family. Moreover, none of the top ten families in city A had the surname Wen!
Wenkang was only a teacher in
school, but he had be the director of the hospital with his superb medical skills. He had won many international medical awards, except for the Nobel Prize.
It would be a miracle if Wen Kang won the ''Outstanding Teacher Award''. Even if he did win it, he must have gotten it through his connections and not through his own abilities.
Compete with him? The rhythm of being crushed in seconds!
Mu Qing''s eyes shed with disdain.
She actually dared to speak to him so arrogantly. She really deserved a beating!
He could be arrogant too, and he was even more arrogant than him!
He had been oppressed by Jing Yichen for so many years that he could not act arrogantly in front of him. Now that Jing Yichen had learned how to feel the pulse, he was even more impressed.
But no one was qualified to suppress him except for Jing Yichen.
He hade to pursue Zhao Anan without knowing his own status. He was already kind enough not to poison wenkang.
Zhao Anan had seen him being so arrogant before, but she didn''t expect that he would be so arrogant again.
Alright, why did she feel so moved when she saw how arrogant he was?
Zhao Anan liked Mu Qing at the beginning because he was too arrogant.
He was extremely arrogant, but he had the right to be so. That was why Zhao Anan''s innocent heart was touched.
Zhao Anan was smiling, but Wen Kang''s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
However, even though Wen Kang was furious, he was already thirty years old. He was no longer the kind of young boy who would be impulsive for love. He knew that there was always someone better than him.
Zhao Anan must havee from a prominent family. If the man beside her could be so close to her, his family background must not be too bad.
There was no need for him to confront Mu Qing.
He was the inheritor of the family who had been carefully cultivated. Although he was arrogant, he knew the severity of his actions and would not easily provoke an unknown enemy.
There were many ways to find out Mu Qing''s identity, and he didn''t need to use the most intense one.
Wen Kang suppressed his anger and walked to Zhao Anan like a gentleman. He put a big bouquet of red roses on her desk."Anan, this is for you."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out.
Mu Qing stood up and closed the door of the office. Then he picked up the big bouquet of roses and threw it into the trash can with a disdainful look.
"You actually dare to overestimate your own abilities andpete with me! You have the nerve to give this stupid rose away, Hmph! Zhao Anan, don''t let this kind of people into your office, do you hear me?"
He was jealous!
Zhao Anan smiled like a little fox. Her eyes were curved."Aiya, how can I control someone else''s legs? I didn''t want you toe, but didn''t youe in yourself?"
"How can I be the same as others! of course, it doesn''t matter if i do it, no one else can! what were the bodyguards outside doing? Just stan
d there and be a door guard? As a decoration?"
mu qing was not happy. zhao anan didn''t seem to care about letting other men in.
"this wenkang''s uncle is the deputy director of the education bureau. his uncle is the head of the intermediate people''s court. oh my, i''m just a small principal. i can''t afford to offend these high officials!"
Mu Qing walked over and sat on the chair. Then he put Zhao Anan on hisp and said bitterly,"Keep pretending. You could''ve stopped him, but you didn ''T. You''re just making me feel bad today, right? Are you trying to take revenge? Alright, go ahead, I''ll take it! Are there any more suitorsing to give me flowers?"
Chapter 727: A love rival?
Chapter 727: A love rival?
With Jing Yichen as her backer! Zhao Anan could do whatever she wanted in A city. She didn''t need to be afraid of any director or President! Even the mayor of A city was under Jing Yichen and the director of the Public Security Bureau was Zheng Jing''s father! Zheng qinan. She would be able to cover up for herself no matter what trouble she got into!
Zhao Anan sat on Mu Qing''s body with a smile. She felt that nothing was boring with him around.
After being interrupted by Wen Kang, the two of them continued to bicker for a while before they got back to work.
At noon, Mu Qing was about to take Zhao Anan out for lunch.
However, before they could leave the office, a tall and handsome man came in.
The handsome boy looked at Mu Qing curiously and then ignored him. He smiled at Zhao Anan and said,"Anan, let''s have lunch together! There''s a new Western restaurant opposite the school, and I heard it''s pretty good. I''ll treat you to it?"
Before Zhao Anan could say anything, Mu Qing said with a dark face, "She''s already eaten. She''s not going!"
"When did I eat?" Zhao Anan was anxious. I''m starving to death, let''s go! I love eating steak the most, hurry up and grab a seat, there won''t be any left if you''rete!"
"Shut up!" Mu Qing red at her.
The handsome man seemed to have finally noticed Mu Qing. He looked at him with a puzzled look and asked, "You''re Anan''s boyfriend? Anan, didn''t you say that you''re single?"
"I ..." Zhao Anan was interrupted by Mu Qing before she could finish her sentence.
"She''s not single, I''m her fianc!" Mu Qing emphasized the word "fianc" as if he was afraid that the other party could not hear him.
The handsome man''s eyes immediately welled up with tears."Anan, so I can''t continue to pursue you? Is my love going to end before it even starts?"
"Yes, it''s over! You can give uppletely. She''s my woman, and she will be my woman for the rest of my life! Now, you can get lost and eat Western food alone!"
"But I really like you, Anan!"
"I''m sorry, she really doesn''t like you! If you don''t get lost, I''ll have the people outside throw you out!"
A minuteter, the handsome man was thrown out while screaming.
"Aiya, you''re too rough with her. Wu Xin is still a student. If she likes me, it''s just that kind of pure like. You don''t have to be so fierce!"
"I don''t care if he did it on purpose or not, I''m going to throw him out!" Mu Qing grabbed Zhao Anan''s arm tightly and walked out, as if he was afraid that she would be taken away.
It had only been a short while and there were already two suitors. She was the most popr girl in the world! He was in deep water and burning fire!
"And it''s pure love! I don''t think he''s innocent. He can cry in a second. He''s in the acting department! You''ll definitely be famous if you go back and be an actor!"
"No, he''s a graduate student in the philosophy Department. He''s devoted to philosophy and likes tonic love. It''s not what you think!"
Mu Qing''s face turned darker when he heard Zhao Anan speaking up for Wu Xin.
"Just keep angering me. You''ll be happy when I die of anger sooner orter. In the future, no one will stop you fr
om getting close to young handsome men one after another!"
Zhao Ananughed so hard that she covered her stomach."Haha, why do I smell a strong sour smell? Do you smell it?"
"Yeah, how can it not be sour? I''ve spilled all the vinegar in A city, don''t you realize that the entire sky is sour?"
Zhao Ananughed so hard that her stomach started to hurt. She finally stoppedughing and followed Mu Qing into his car. "Are we going to drink vinegar for lunch today?"
"Don''t you think I''m sour enough? And you want me to continue drinking?"
.
Mu Qing pecked her lips as a punishment and warned her in a low voice,"Stay away from that Wu Xin in the future, I don''t like him! I''ll tell those bodyguards to get out of here if they dare to let him into your office!"
"Hey, that''s my brother''s bodyguard, not yours. Why should he listen to you?"
"Master Jing will not argue with me over such a small matter. You don''t have to worry about it."
"Then what are we having for lunch? I''m so hungry!"
"I''ll treat you to a bun. It''s one Yuan per bun. We''ll be full if it''s ten Yuan. "
Zhao Anan was dumbfounded,"you are so stingy!" No, no, quickly stop the car. I want to get off the car and go to a Western restaurant with Wu Xin to eat good food!"
Mu Qing finally smiled and patted her back."Alright, stop fooling around. I''ll take you to eat something good. I won''t shortchange you."
"I haven''t eaten Western food for more than a month. I want to eat steak. I don''t have money, you treat!"
"Why are you out of money again? Didn''t I just give you two thousandst week? You''ve spent it all so quickly?"
Zhao Anan refused to admit that she had saved up all the money. She imitated the way Mu Qing used to talk to her and said,"What can I do with that 2000 Yuan? it''s not even enough for me to buy a piece of clothing. I''ve already spent all the money! Are you going to treat me or not? if you don ''t, I''ll get off the car and eat with someone else! I''m so beautiful that even if you want to treat me to a meal, you''ll have to line up!"
"Alright, alright, alright. I''ll treat you. Don''t praise yourself anymore. I can''t stand it anymore!"
"Then tell me, am I not pretty?"
"It''s beautiful ..."Mu Qing said helplessly.
"How beautiful?"
"Sink the fish and drop the geese, shut the moon and embarrass the flowers!"
"You''re just copying and pasting! No, it''s too perfunctory. Change the words!"
"Please spare me. Did I praise your program before I invited you to dinner? Then I won''t treat you, okay?"
"No, I''ve already walked so far, I can''t go back! You have to treat me and praise me, otherwise, I won''t stop today!"
The two of them made a lot of noise along the way. Mu Qing was forced by Zhao Anan to praise her for half an hour, and then he took her to a Western restaurant for dinner.
"Since when did you like to eat steak so much? Didn''t you say that eating this is too tiring?"
Zhao Anan ate the food and said,"None of your business! I''m going to eat all the steak!"
She didn''t tell him the reason, but Mu Qi
ng had already guessed it.
It was probably because she had seen him and mi Xiaoxiao eat steak on a fake blind date before, so she had a strong attachment to steak.
It could be seen how jealous she was, even the steak was affected.
Mu Qing smiled. He felt rxed and happy seeing her eating so happily.
As for wenkang and Wu Xin, although they had given him some trouble, Mu Qing knew that Zhao Anan would never fall in love with them.
Their eleven years of rtionship was not something that could be easily destroyed by others.
He trusted Zhao Anan a lot.
Chapter 728: High-end love rival
Chapter 728: High-end love rival
Yang Muyan was the only one who could create all kinds of "evidence" to make Zhao Anan misunderstand. The rest of the people were not a big threat to them.
But after the marriage certificate incident, Zhao Anan had learned to trust him. She was also wary of yang Muyan and would not believe her words easily.
After the meal, Mu Qing drove back to school with Zhao Anan.
He had nned to go back to the hospital in the afternoon, but Zhao Anan had agreed to let him stay by her side. He was reluctant to leave.
What was more, there were two potential rivals who were pursuing Zhao Anan. Mu Qing was worried about leaving Zhao Anan alone in the school. She had always treated the opposite sex as her good friends and brothers, not men, but those men would never treat her as a brother!
He wanted to stay by her side and drive away all those who were ready to make trouble!
Mu Qing had made the right choice.
At threeo'' clock in the afternoon, when he and Zhao Anan were busy with their work, another handsome man came to her office.
Furthermore, this one was different from the previous two. It was of a higher level!
It wasn''t because of his looks or family background, but because of his methods of picking up girls.
"Principal Zhao, I''ve specially sorted out some information about our school''s participation in the Nationalpetition for the best universities in the past years. I''ve made a detailed summary of our school''s advantages, see if you can use it. I didn''t sleepst night and was busy arranging these materials. I might look a little Haggard today. Don''tugh at me. "
"No, no, why would Iugh at you? you still look as handsome as ever! However, I have to thank you very much for this, Qin Feng! I''m justcking this information!"
Mu Qing looked at Qin Feng coldly.
He was tall, well-dressed, handsome, and wore a pair of ck-rimmed sses. He looked like a refined schr.
But the way he looked at Zhao Anan was obviously different. Under the thin lenses, there were sparks in his eyes.
Moreover, he was really good at joking. How was he Haggard? He was so energetic as if he had been injected with stimnts, but he had to act pitiful in front of Zhao Anan.
Tidying up documents all night without sleep?
Only innocent people like Zhao Anan would believe that, not Mu Qing.
He didn''t even know who had tidied it up for him, but he had taken it to Zhao Anan to show off.
What was different about this Qin Feng was that the first two called Zhao Anan by her name and seemed to be very intimate with her. They did not even try to hide their purpose of pursuing her. But Qin Feng called her "principal Zhao", which showed that he respected her very much and did not seem to have any intention of pursuing Zhao Anan.
This kind of person was the most dangerous!
This one was much more scheming than the previous two!
Judging from Zhao Anan''s reaction, it was obvious that she was not as friendly to Wen Kang and Wu Xin as she was to Qin Feng.
She actually praised another man for being handsome in front of him!<
/p>
.
Did they think he was dead?
Mu Qing''s face was as pale as his name.
However, the two of thempletely ignored his ugly expression and continued to talk affectionately.
"What''s there to thank? it''s what I should do. Since I''m the Dean of the School, it''s my responsibility to help the school participate in the rankingpetition of the top universities. This isn''t just your responsibility as the principal, it''s the responsibility of all the teachers and students in the school!"
Zhao Anan was moved to tears by his words. He was such a goodrade! If all the teachers and students thought the same way, the University of X''s national ranking would immediately rise!
"You''re the most responsible teacher in our school, Qin Feng! Even I, as the principal, am a little embarrassed. You are really working hard for the school! It''s the University of X''s fortune to have such a responsible teacher like you!"
But Mu Qing didn''t think so. Qin Feng''s words were even better than his singing. Even a blind man could tell why he dressed up so handsomely and came to Zhao Anan.
Of course, Zhao Anan seemed to be quite good at bullshitting. Sheplimented Qin Feng and ttered him. No one knew if she did it on purpose or if she really thought Qin Feng was good.
Zhao Anan had not been so smart before. She was not good at thoseplicated things at all. Recently, she had be so talkative. Who had she learned that from?
She had heard that Jing Yichen had assigned her a "know-it-all" type of assistant, who helped her with everything and taught her how to be a good person. Zhao Anan''s change was probably due to this assistant.
Qin Feng didn''t seem to notice Mu Qing''s dislike for him and continued topliment Zhao Anan.
"Ever since you became the principal of our school, the school has be a whole new school. The atmosphere of learning has be more intense. Your Teaching Policy is very good and you have attracted arge amount of donations from Jingsheng enterprise. You have made a great contribution to the development of the school. I really admire you!"
Zhao Anan knew that ever since Jing Yichen donated money to University of X, many people had suspected that she was the woman of one of the top management of Jingsheng enterprise. When Qin Feng mentioned Jingsheng enterprise, she kept her smile and said humbly,"You are too kind. I didn''t expect that Jingsheng enterprise would donate to our school. It is because our school is doing well that we are able to attract donations from the society. It has nothing to do with me!"
She had not expected that Jing Yichen would donate to University of X.
If she had known this earlier, she would not have allowed Jing Yichen to donate it. What a waste! It was enough for her to squander for several years!
She was still feeling the pain!
The two of them chatted for a while before Qin Feng noticed that Mu Qing was in the office.
"Principal Zhao, this friend of yours looks unfamiliar. He''s not a teacher at our school, right?"
"Him? Oh, he''s not. He''s ..."
"I''m Anan''s fianc!"
Mu Qing interrupted Zhao Anan rudely. He had said the word "fianc" so many times.
;
Hearing the word "fianc," Qin Feng''s expression clearly slightly stiffened.
He looked at Mu Qing with a gloomy expression, as if he was not happy.
However, he was very scheming and did not show any ws on the surface."So principal Zhao is already engaged. I''ve never heard you mention such a big thing. Congrattions!"
Before Zhao Anan could deny it, Mu Qing said to Qin Feng coldly,"Why should I tell you about the principal''s engagement? Who Do You Think You Are? In front of her fianc, you''re being so mean to her. Do I look like an easy target? Are you going to get out yourself, or do you want me to get someone to throw you out?"
Chapter 729: Im taking it seriously anyway
Chapter 729: I''m taking it seriously anyway
Qin Feng''s expression was extremely ugly. As the director of the school''s Academic Affairs Office, his status was usually quite high and his family background was also quite good. No one had ever spoken to him so rudely before!
"Hmph!" He snorted and said with a cold face,"I''m just ordinary colleagues with principal Zhao. Don''t try to guess what other people are thinking! I''m here today to give her some information, it''s not as dirty as you think! Principal Zhao, your fianc is being too unreasonable. I won''t dare to help you in the future!"
After he finished speaking, he put down the documents in his hand and turned to leave. He seemed to be open and aboveboard.
But he was definitely the most cunning one. He had set a trap for Mu Qing before he left.
Sure enough, Zhao Anan said unhappily the next moment,"Bastard mu, what''s wrong with you today? After chasing away all the people in my camp, who will help me after I''ve offended them? Qin Feng''s just here to deliver some documents, there''s nothing ambiguous between us. You''ve gone too far!"
"Someone from your camp? What a joke! I don''t believe that you can''t continue being a principal without these three perverts! None of the three of them are good people. They''re better at pretending than the other. I originally hated that wenkang, but now it seems that he''s the most upright one! Stay away from these people in the future, or you might fall into their trap at any time! Especially this Qin Feng, he''s so scheming and ruthless, he''s definitely a disaster!"
"Qin Feng is the Dean of the School. I knew him when I was a teacher in the school. He''s gentle and not as bad as you say!"
Zhao Anan was not convinced, but she didn''t like Qin Feng either. She was not a scheming person, but that didn''t mean she was stupid.
However, Qin Feng had never done anything out of line. He was basically helping out and never asked for anything in return. In addition, they knew each other from before, so their rtionship was not bad.
"So he''s been eyeing you since long ago!"
There was no smile on Mu Qing''s handsome face. This ce was a Wolf''s Den!
He had thought that it would be safe for Zhao Anan to be the principal of University of X. This was an ivory tower, and there were fewer schemes and intrigues than the outside world. She was the principal, with a high position and a strong backing, so no one dared to provoke her. Unexpectedly, there were so many young and handsome men who tried to pursue Zhao Anan.
He had only been here for a day and three suitors hade. He didn''t know how many people woulde to pursue him at other times!
As a matter of fact, there were not many people around Zhao Anan at other times. asionally, one or two of them would show up. After all, there were not many male teachers and students who dared to pursue the principal.
Mu Qing and Zhao Anan did not know that wenkang hade on his own initiative, while Wu Xin and Qin Feng had been urged by wenkang.
Both of them had a good impression of Zhao Anan and wanted to pursue her. When they heard that she had a fianc, they came to see what was going on.
They hade to test the rtionship between Mu Qing and Zhao Anan
.
The fire in Mu Qing''s heart had turned into a volcano that was about to erupt.
"You must stay away from Qin Feng in the future. This person has bad intentions. I don''t feel at ease letting youe into contact with him!"
Zhao Anan pouted and said,"I don''t think you have any good intentions." Other peoplee to my office in an orderly manner and have never done anything abnormal, unlike you, who touches me!"
Mu Qing walked to her side and held her in his arms. Zhao Anan struggled to escape, but Mu Qing held her tightly.
"Can I be the same as them? You''re my woman, it''s normal for me to touch you. Those few are not good people, the way they look at you makes me ufortable!"
.
Zhao Anan felt sweet inside, but she said, "Who''s your woman? you''re shameless!"
"You''re not only my woman, you''re also my fiance. I''m your fianc!"
Hearing him say that again, Zhao Anan raised her head from his arms and said with her eyes wide open,"Bastard, speak clearly, who is your fiance? We''ve already broken up, don''t tell me you''ve forgotten?"
"You were the one who broke up with me, I never agreed to it," Mu Qing said calmly. Besides, in my heart, we''re already engaged. I proposed to you and you agreed!"
"When? why don''t I have any memory of it at all! Don''t try to fool me. It''s true that I''m stupider than you, but I don''t forget ..."
"Eleven years ago, when you first became my girlfriend."
It seemed that there was such a thing. Zhao Anan had an impression of it, but she couldn''t remember the details. It seemed that Mu Qing had said that he wanted to marry her and she had agreed.
"When did this happen? that was just a joke, how can you take it seriously!"
"I took it seriously, but you didn ''t? Is a proposal a joke?" Mu Qing''s face turned dark.
"But you didn''t give me a ring or any flowers, so that doesn''t count! You''re so careless, and you still have the cheek to bring it up now!"
"Who made the rule that a marriage proposal must have a ring and a flower?"
"Uh ..." Zhao Anan was a little dumbfounded."I don''t care, it doesn''t count! You need a ring and a flower to propose!"
"Alright, I''ll put on the ring and propose again tomorrow in front of all the teachers and students of X University. Let everyone know that you''re my woman and let all those men give up!"
"Ah?" How did it be like this?!
Zhao Anan got anxious."Don ''t, don'' t, don ''t. I was just joking. Don''t take it seriously!"
"Are you ying again? I don''t care, I''m taking it seriously!" Mu Qing was so mad at her, but he felt that he should give Zhao Anan a Grand proposal, even if she didn''t agree.
In fact, he had proposed to Zhao Anan countless times.
But those were not formal proposals. As Zhao Anan had said, there were no bright red roses or dazzling diamond rings. They were all simple.
Every time the two of them spoke, it was always "are you getting married or not?" "I''m not getting married!" He had never tried to propo
se to Zhao Anan in the most formal and grand way.
Even if Zhao Anan refused him verbally, she would still be very happy.
Which woman didn''t like to be proposed to in the most romantic way by the person she loved?
The more Mu Qing thought about it, the more he felt that he needed a proposal ceremony, and Zhao Anan needed a romantic one.
He held Zhao Anan tightly and kissed her full lips. He said in a low voice,"I definitely can''t do it tomorrow. I don''t have time to prepare. It''s not good to be too rushed and not serious enough. Just wait for three more days. Three dayster, I''lle to school and propose to you. "
Chapter 730: A romantic proposal (part one)
Chapter 730: A romantic proposal (part one)
Mu Qing was serious!
How could this be!
Zhao Anan was so anxious that she almost burst into tears."No, no, no, you can''t propose. Even if you do, I won''t say yes. How embarrassing would that be?"
"Why don''t you just agree to it?" Mu Qing raised his eyebrows.
"I won''t agree! If you dare to propose to me, I ... I''ll run away, to a ce where no one knows me, and nevere back!"
Mu Qing was startled and hugged her tightly."Alright, alright, don''t run away. I won''t propose! As long as you don''t leave, I''ll do anything you want! Don''t let me not be able to find you, that feeling ... It''s too torturous. Anan, don''t let me experience it again, I''ll go crazy!"
"I''m not leaving until you propose!" Zhao Anan was so sad that she wanted to die. Shey in Mu Qing''s arms and tried hard not to cry.
She was afraid that Mu Qing would propose to her and she would agree to it on impulse.
What if she died right after they got engaged?
"I won''t beg anymore. You''ll just work in school and not go anywhere, you hear me?"
Zhao Anan let out a sigh of relief and nodded with red eyes.
However, as much as she heaved a sigh of relief, there was an indescribable sense of loss in her heart.
She was also looking forward to a Grand proposal ceremony!
Zhao Anan buried the desire deep in her heart. She wanted to live a peaceful and quiet life with Mu Qing, which would make her content. Maybe Mu Qing would not have such deep feelings for her, and he would not be too sad even if he lost her in the future.
Mu Qing stayed with Zhao Anan the whole day. He seemed to be afraid that Zhao Anan would run away when he was not paying attention, so he kept holding her hand and didn''t let go until he sent Zhao Anan back to the Zhao family. He then left and went back to his apartment.
However, the moment he got home, Mu Qing called Jing Yichen."Master Jing, please lend me six helicopters."
"So many? What are you doing?"
"Propose!"
Jing Yichen was silent for a long time. Suddenly, a smile appeared on his face and he said in a low voice,"Alright, I''ll lend it to you."
After hanging up the phone, Mu Qing started to prepare for the proposal.
The first item was the diamond ring.
It was toote to order one now, but he could choose one that suited Zhao Anan the most, the most luxurious and expensive diamond ring.
That night, Mu Qing took a ne to Switzend and went to pick out the Rings himself.
Besides the ring, he also bought some other luxurious jewelry for Zhao Anan.
Family Zhao was a family of jewelry and Zhao Anan had seen all kinds of rare treasures. Mu Qing knew that Zhao Anan had high standards and she didn''t wear any jewelry, so it would be difficult to satisfy her.
It took Mu Qing a long time to pick out what he was satisfied with.
After he bought the diamond ring, he did not return to China immediately. Instead, he went to Rose Manor in France, booked all the roses in the manor, and flew them back to A city by air.
Mu Qing didn''t return to China until four dayster.
This was one more day than the three days he had originally said.
He was a little helpless, but he did not feel
too conflicted.
He wanted to give Zhao Anan a surprise.
Zhao Anan didn''t see Mu Qing for four days in a row. She felt very strange. He was still fine when they separated the other day. Why did he suddenly disappear? She went to the hospital to look for him for a physical examination, but he was nowhere to be found. He didn''t pick up her calls either.
.
She was a little nervous. Had she angered Mu Qing by not letting him propose to her? Or was it because she had too many suitors and Mu Qing was angry?
She had been suspicious for the past few days. Luckily, Zheng Jing came to talk to her almost every day, so she didn''t feel too ufortable.
And she felt that Zheng Jing had been acting weird recently. The words he said seemed to have a different meaning, and even his eyes were not right.
Also, Zheng Jing came too often.
What was even weirder was that he actually kept giving her gifts and helping her chase away the suitors that asionally appeared.
She was getting more and more suspicious. She felt that Zheng Jing was up to something.
But every time she asked Zheng Jing, he would answer her as if nothing had happened. He alwaysughed at her for thinking too much.
Now, even she herself suspected that she was a little crazy!
Where on earth had Mu Qing gone? She only felt more at ease with him around!
Zhao Anan didn''t talk for long before Mu Qing showed up in a way that she had never expected.
It was autumn in A city. The air was fresh and the weather was clear. White clouds floated in the clear blue sky. The sun gently emitted warm rays of light that shone on people, as if they were coated with ayer of golden light.
The campus of University of X was even more picturesque. The green pines and cypresses, the red maple leaves, and the bright yellow chrysanthemums were as beautiful as a fascinating tourist destination.
Rain started to fall from the sky, attracting the excited screams of countless girls on campus.
It was a rain of roses.
Six helicopters hovered over the campus of University of X, andyers of rose petals fell from the sky, forming a spectacr scene.
A botanist student picked up a rose petal from the ground and eximed,""This is the puloine rose from France! And they''ve just been picked for less than 12 hours. These are the freshest roses shipped directly from France!"
"Oh my God, look, there are fresh dewdrops on the petals! It smells so good!"
"Who''s this rich guy! Turning all the roses into petals and scattering them all over the ce, my heart hurts so much!"
"Our school has be an ocean of roses. It''s so beautiful! The scent of roses is everywhere, so romantic!"
When the helicopter slowly descended and was only a few hundred meters above the ground, the students started screaming again.
Because each of the six helicopters had a red banner hanging on it, everyone could see the words on it clearly.
"Zhao Anan, Will you marry me?"
"Zhao Anan, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Zhao Anan, I will only marry you."
"Zhao Anan, let me protect you for the rest of my life."
"Zhao Anan, I will go with you even i
f you have to go to the end of the world."
"Zhao Anan, I love you!"
Seeing the name "Zhao Anan" on the banner, the whole school was in an uproar.
Who didn''t know about Zhao Anan? she was the most beautiful principal of University of X!
Recently, she had been the hot topic in school! First, he had forcefully pushed out principal min, who had a powerful background. Then, he had attracted a donation of several hundred million Yuan. The schrships of the entire school had soared!
She was actually proposed to!
Moreover, it was done in such a grand manner!
Chapter 731: A romantic proposal (part two)
Chapter 731: A romantic proposal (part two)
Some of the girls were so touched that they cried."Oh my God, this is so romantic! No, don''t try to persuade me, let me cry for a while!"
"If I could have such a Grand proposal, I would definitely marry him immediately! It doesn''t matter if he''s rich or poor, ugly or handsome!"
"F * ck, stop dreaming! They can transport so many roses from France and even mobilize six helicopters. How can they be poor?"
"Yes, yes, yes, he must be a tall, handsome, and rich man! I''m so envious, when will my boyfriend propose to me like this!"
The girls in the crowd were all chattering away, and from time to time, they would reach out to catch the Rose petals falling from the sky. No one gave them roses, so it should be fine to pick up some from the sky, right? These were France puluo''s roses, and each one cost a few hundred dors!
Zheng Jing could not help but smile bitterly in the crowd.
Bro, you should leave me a way out! Such a Grand and romantic proposal had instantly turned everyone into dregs, okay? I will be under a lot of pressure when I propose to Zheng Lun in the future!
Do you think I can borrow more helicopters from master Jing and buy more roses?
Even so, it had lost its creativity!
She really wanted to force all the unmarried men to their deaths!
In the future, the men from the University of X who were pursuing Zhao Anan would never have the face to confess their love to her with roses or choctes.
This move was really ruthless!
Many people had the same thought as Zheng Jing.
Men were all prideful and liked topare. Now, no matter what kind of proposal he prepared, it would be overshadowed by such a Grand proposal.
The entire University of X was in an uproar and everyone was shocked.
However, the most surprised person was Zhao Anan herself.
She stood on the marble steps outside the office building, staring at the six helicopters hovering in the sky and the red rose petals dancing in the sky!
Every word on the helicopter was big enough for her to read clearly.
What was going on?
What was going on?
Didn''t we agree not to propose?
Why did he change his mind?
He had disappeared for four days just to prepare for this?
Zhao Anan''s heart was beating so fast that she could not control it. She felt that it was going to jump out of her chest.
Amidst the screams of all the girls in the school, a handsome man in a ck suit and white shirt came down from the ropedder of the helicopter.
He was tall and well-built, had a gentle temperament, and his facial features were as handsome as a movie star.
He was holding arge bouquet of bright red roses with dewdrops in his hands. He did not look at anyone screaming in the crowd. His ck leather shoes stepped on the Rose petals that covered the entire ground as he walked straight toward the principal''s office.
"Heavens! He was too handsome! I''m going to faint from his drug! How could he be so handsome! Our school''s most handsome guy has been turned into dregs in an instant!"
"Didn''t you say that the principal is
a kept woman by an old man? Who''s talking nonsense! Look at this handsome guy, he''s so young!"
"Are you sure we''re not shooting a movie? He doesn''t look any worse than a celebrity!"
.
"I''m going to dump my boyfriend! He''s not as handsome, rich, or romantic as her, what do I see in him!"
All sorts of noises erupted from the crowd from time to time, and it was not an exaggeration to describe it as a human mor.
The onlookers followed the handsome figure like crazy and rushed to the independent luxury building to witness this romantic and happy moment.
All the students didn''t even go to ss. When the teacher went to the teacher''s room and found that there was no one, he heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly ran over at the speed of a 100-meter sprint to watch Yingying. At worst, all the students were considered to have skipped ss!
A man in a suit walked out from the rain of roses. As he got closer, he gradually became clear.
He had long eyebrows, deep eyes, a straight nose, and thin lips. His short hair was clean and neat, and his skin was smooth and wless.
He was more handsome than any other day, and more masculine than ever!
Zhao Anan stood on the high steps in a daze. She felt like she was in a dream.
She had argued with Mu Qing about the proposal on the spur of the moment. It was just an excuse for her not to admit that Mu Qing was her fianc.
She was not really forcing Mu Qing to propose to her.
In fact, she had proposed to Mu Qing countless times.
In the past, he would ask her once a month,"Anan, Will you marry me?
She always rejected him cruelly and heartlessly."Not good!
But Mu Qing had been rejected too many times, so he stopped asking.
She had been longing for another grand proposal, but Mu Qing had made a big scene this time.
It was a dark patch outside, full of people! Tens of thousands of students and teachers in the school were watching!
If she rejected him, he would be so embarrassed!
The Rose petals with crystal dew fell on her head, her shoulders, and her heart. The unique fragrance of roses wrapped her up. It was romantic and happy, luxurious and sweet.
Her heart was beating so fast that she couldn''t say a word or take a step out.
She watched as the tall and handsome man stood in front of her and slowly knelt down on one knee. He held a bouquet of fragrant roses in one hand and a dazzling diamond ring in the other. He slowly and firmly handed it to her.
She heard the familiar voice asking firmly and gently,""Anan, I love you. I''ll protect you for the rest of your life. Will you marry me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, an earth-shattering shout erupted from the crowd,""I''m willing! I''m willing! I''m willing! Marry him! Marry him!"
Mu Qing, who had been changed from head to toe, kneeled in front of Zhao Anan. Hearing the shouts from the crowd, he couldn''t help but smile.
He had worked hard for so many days and spent tens of millions. It was all worth it.
Because he saw the happiness and happiness on Zhao Anan''s face.
He knew
that she loved this Grand proposal!
He was ready to be rejected by Zhao Anan. He had been rejected by Zhao Anan so many times that he was already used to it. Mu Qing didn''t care about losing face.
This proposal was not for show, but for Zhao Anan alone.
He wasn''t afraid that she would run away again because of this proposal. Yingluo, he wouldn''t give her a chance to escape. She couldn''t escape from city A at all.
Mu Qing kneeled down on the marble steps and looked up at the woman who was right in front of him. She looked innocent and cute with red eyes. He couldn''t help but smile and repeat,"Will you marry me, Anan?"
Chapter 732-regret
Chapter 732-regret
His clear voice prated into Zhao Anan''s heart, making her heart tremble.
Mu Qing was proposing to her! Such a formal and romantic proposal!
The sea of roses, the luxurious and resplendent diamond rings, the tsunami-like group of rtives and friends, the high-quality red banner expressing love, and the roaring helicopter hovering above them!
He had disappeared for four days because he had been preparing for this proposal!
She could no longer stop her tears from falling.
The crystal tears fell on the ck marble steps, sshing small beads of water. They reflected a gorgeous light under the sun, silently announcing the happiness of their owner to everyone.
Zhao Anan walked down the stairs slowly in her ck high heels. She came to Mu Qing who was kneeling on the ground and looked into his eyes. Under everyone''s expectant gaze, she said seriously, "I''m willing to. "
The crowd suddenly burst into thunderous apuse. Everyone used whatever they could find and raised bunches of rose petals one after another. Theyughed happily as if their marriage proposal was a sess, or they had been sessfully proposed to.
Mu Qing was still kneeling on the ground and said in disbelief,"What did you say?"
He must have heard wrong! Zhao Anan said yes?
Zhao Anan was crying andughing at the same time. "I''m willing!"
Mu Qing stood up from the ground and held Zhao Anan in his arms. He spun her around for a few rounds before he stopped.
He kissed her in front of everyone, then handed her the roses and put the heart-shaped diamond ring on her finger.
Zhao Anan held the roses and looked at Mu Qing putting on the ring for her. She felt that she was the happiest woman in the world.
She was so happy that she burst into tears. When Mu Qing put the ring on her, she threw herself into Mu Qing''s arms and said, "You''re so annoying. I haven''t seen you for a few days, and you actually prepared so much without saying a word! I''m so happy!"
Mu Qing kissed away Zhao Anan''s tears gently and held her tightly with red eyes. "I''m happy too, Anan. I''m really, really happy!"
He wanted to cry too!
Zhao Anan had agreed to marry him!
Was he dreaming?
God, if this is really a dream, then I will never wake up again!
The six helicopterspleted their mission and quickly rose to the sky. Then, they whizzed away.
A luxurious white Bugatti sports car drove through the crowd and stopped in front of Mu Qing and Zhao Anan.
The luxury sports car that was worth tens of millions of Yuan attracted another wave of exmations from the crowd.
A driver in a suit got out of the sports car and said,""Young master, young miss, please get in the car!"
Mu Qing led Zhao Anan to the car, opened the door and let her in. Then he went to the other side and got in.
The driver also returned to the car. After making sure that the two of them were seated, he started the car and left.
The luxurious sports car slowly drove out of the campus on the carpet paved with countless rose petals. Then, it entered the traffic and quickly disappeared from people''s sight.
.
In the sports car, Mu Qing was still holding Zhao Anan tightly. He was so excited that he could not believe that Zhao Anan would agree to marry him.
He was afraid that everything just now was an illusion. He even pinched his own thigh. When he felt the pain, heughed out loud.
Seeing his childish behavior, Zhao Anan''s heart ached a lot.
Was he that happy when she said she was willing to marry him? He hugged her tightly the entire way, as if he was afraid that she would disappear.
Mu Qing still didn''t feel that it was real. He held Zhao Anan and asked carefully,"Anan, are you really willing to marry me?"
This time, Zhao Anan was silent.
She did not answer.
Mu Qing broke out in a cold sweat and his previous happiness disappeared. His face was frighteningly pale."Anan, say something!"
Zhao Anan raised her head and tears started to flow out of her eyes."I don''t even know how long I can live, so why did you marry me? If I marry you, I''ll only be harming you. I won''t marry you. "
"Nonsense!" Mu Qing was furious and shouted. What do you mean by I don''t know how many days you can live? With me here, you can live a long life! Didn''t I take you to the MU family''s research Institute? We''ve developed a new drug that can fight against cancer cells. Even if your condition rpses, I can still save you!"
"Your medicine may not be able to save me. Cancer is a global problem, how can it be cured so easily by you? My attending doctor Germany also said that the probability of a rpse is above 99%. I can''t be that one percent lucky. So far, no one has been able to survive the fourth recurrence of my type of cancer. The next one will be my third one, and I''m only one step away from the fourth. "
Mu Qing''s eyes were red and bloodshot due to the fatigue of the past few days.
He looked at Zhao Anan in a daze and tears fell down.
He knew that Zhao Anan would not agree to marry him so easily.
He was really stupid! He actually believed it!
"You''ve already agreed to marry me. I don''t care. From today onwards, you''re my fiance! We can get our marriage certificate and hold a wedding banquet at any time!"
He took Zhao Anan into his arms and tried to pull her into his body.
However, his tone changed from overbearing to pleading.""Anan, don''t scare me. Don''t talk nonsense. You will be fine. You''re so kind, so you must be one of the lucky ones. Don''t leave me, how can I live without you?"
His voice quickly became hoarse from the ups and downs of his emotions.
His hot tears fell on Zhao Anan''s face, making her heart ache.
Mu Qing would
not shed tears easily!
He had the same cheerful personality as her. He had the perseverance of a man in his bones and would never cry.
But now, he was crying for her.
"Don''t say it, I''m so sad!"Zhao Anan cried.
She wiped away Mu Qing''s tears in a hurry and then kissed him passionately, not caring that the driver was still in the driver''s seat.
As a matter of fact, there was no one else in her eyes at this moment. She only had eyes for Mu Qing.
Mu Qing kissed her back. He knew that Zhao Anan was in more pain than anyone else. He also felt sorry for her.
Chapter 733: Ill give you a Rose Garden
Chapter 733: I''ll give you a Rose Garden
The two of them kissed for a long time before they reluctantly ended it.
Mu Qing put his forehead against Zhao Anan''s and wiped her tears away with his warm fingers. He said in a hoarse and gentle voice,"I wanted to make you happy today, but I made you cry. It''s my fault. An ''an, I won''t force you. You can marry if you want to, or even if you don''t want to. As long as you don''t marry someone else, I''ll ept anything. "
He loved her enough to the point that he could sacrifice everything, including his dignity.
Zhao Anan leaned into his arms, feeling ashamed for breaking her promise.
If she had known this earlier, she would have rejected Mu Qing directly, so that he would not have any hope and would fall into despair.
She just didn''t want Mu Qing to be embarrassed in front of so many people. If she had rejected him, he would be aughingstock in the future.
In the future, someone would definitely recognize him as the director of family MU''s Hospital. As a director, his reputation was very important.
She didn''t want anyone to see him in the future and say, Look, this was the man who had used such a Grand proposal but was still rejected!
She was so fickle and didn''t keep her word, but Mu Qing was so tolerant of her and forgave her so quickly.
This made Zhao Anan feel even more guilty and sad.
She held Mu Qing''s waist and asked in a low voice,"Where are we going?"
"I''ve also prepared a surprise for you. I''ll take you to see itter. "
Mu Qing patted her back gently, giving her the greatestfort and the strongest support.
It was not that he was not angry with Zhao Anan, but he knew that being angry would not solve anything. It would only make them suffer more.
Zhao Anan was right. He was not 100% sure that he could keep her alive. She could live for 10 years, or only one year.
He did not want to waste his limited life on anger and quarrels.
He just wanted Zhao Anan to be happy.
Zhao Anan raised her head and looked at Mu Qing in a daze."If I had rejected you back then, you wouldn''t have prepared to give me the surprise?"
Mu Qing touched her nose lovingly and said softly,"Of course not. The surprise was prepared for you. Who else would I give it to if not you? If you had rejected me back then, I wouldn''t have hesitated to carry you into the car and bring you out. "
He paused for a moment before continuing in a low voice."When I proposed to you, I never expected you to say yes. I was prepared for your rejection."
"Blockhead, I ..."
Mu Qing put his finger on her lips to stop her from apologizing.
"It''s okay, don''t say anything. I understand what you''re thinking,"he said gently. I''m so happy that you agreed. Although you''re going back on your word now, I''m still very happy. "
"I know that you''re willing, and that''s enough! Even if we can''t get married, such a Grand and perfect proposal is enough for us to reminisce for the rest of our lives! I still have to thank you for agreeing to it back then. This proposal was a sess, and my efforts weren''t in vain!"
Zhao Anan could not say a word.
She knew that Mu Qing doted on her, but she didn''
t know that he had done so much.
He treated her well and tolerated her unconditionally.
The heavens were too stingy. Since they had given her such a good man, why didn''t they give her a healthy body?
"It''s just that you shouldn''t go back on your word so soon. You should wait a few more days and let me be happy for a few more days. It''s a pity that you said it too early. I''ve woken up from my dream so quickly!"
A bitter smile appeared on Mu Qing''s face and he looked a little depressed.
But he soon adjusted himself. He held Zhao Anan in his arms and listened to her quiet breathing. He felt that even if she had rejected him, it would not have changed much.
She was still his woman, still in his arms.
The luxurious sports car quickly left the city and arrived at the suburbs with great scenery.
This area was filled with newly developed vis. The environment was very good and very suitable for living.
Because the real estatepany was Jingsheng enterprise, Mu Qing had reserved the best one in advance.
The vi had been renovatedst year, but because it was too far away from the hospital and Mu Qing had a hard time going to work, he had never stayed in the vi. Only one servant had been living in the vi and was in charge of cleaning.
Mu Qing held Zhao Anan''s hand and got out of the car, leading her into the vi.
The vi had three floors and an area of 900 square meters. There was a small garden at the back and an open-air swimming pool in front.
As soon as Zhao Anan came in, she was stunned by the roses.
Therge swimming pool was full of fresh rose petals, and the cobblestone path leading to the vi was also full of roses. When Mu Qing took her to the small garden, she found that the flowers in the garden were also roses!
Mu Qing saw the surprise on her face and couldn''t help but smile. "Didn''t you want to spend it? It was toote to nt them now, so I had to transport the flowers from France and find someone to nt them in the garden one by one, hoping that they would bloom longer this autumn!"
Zhao Anan kicked off her high heels and ran into the Rose bushes barefooted.
It was so beautiful!
She had never seen such arge patch of roses before!
Did Mu Qing move the Rose Manor in France to A city?
Mu Qing picked up the high heels that she had kicked off and followed her into the flower garden. He said to her carefully,"Be careful, roses have thorns, don''t get pricked."
As soon as he finished his words, Zhao Anan gasped.
"Aiya! It hurts!"
She wasn''t pricked by the Rose thorns, but her foot was hurt by the small stones on the ground.
Mu Qing shook his head helplessly, picked her up and walked out of the garden."How old are you? you still like to run around barefooted. You''ve lost your memory so many times."
He carried Zhao Anan out of the garden and entered the vi through the back door.
As soon as they entered, Zhao Anan let out a surprised "huh" and said,"Blockhead, What''s this?"
Mu Qingughed at her,"are you stupid?" You don''t even recognize the ho
t spring?"
Zhao Anan was surprised,"is this really a hot spring?" You have a hot spring in your vi!"
How was that possible?
The vis here looked very ordinary, but there was actually a hot spring hidden inside!
No wonder she felt that the structure of the vi was a little strange when she first came. The first floor was surrounded byrge floor-to-ceiling windows. It didn''t look like a home for people, but rather a ce for sightseeing.
Now she knew that this was to ensure the best view when soaking in the hot spring, so the structure was simr to European pce buildings.
Chapter 734: Who asked you to have such a good figure?
Chapter 734: Who asked you to have such a good figure?
"Of course it''s a hot spring. Why Would I Lie to You? The water temperature here can reach up to 60 degrees Celsius, and it''s rich in minerals. It''s very suitable for soaking and nourishing the body. Do you like it?"
Zhao Anan shouted happily,"I like it!" I love it!"
If she wanted to go to the hot spring, she would not need to take a ne to other cities anymore. She could go to the hot spring in her own home. She didn''t realize that she had subconsciously regarded Mu Qing''s home as her own.
This was such a pleasant surprise!
Zhao Anan was overjoyed. She jumped down from Mu Qing''s arms and walked to the hot spring with bare feet. Then she put her feet in carefully.
The water was hot, but Zhao Anan felt veryfortable. She wanted to take off her clothes right now and soak in the water for a while.
Apparently, Mu Qing knew what she was thinking and had already thought about it for her.
He grabbed Zhao Anan who was about to give it a try. "Don''t be naughty. Let''s go upstairs first. I bought you a swimsuit. You cane down and soak in it after you change into it. "
Zhao Anan jumped up in joy. She put her arms around Mu Qing''s neck and kissed him on the face. "You''re so thoughtful! Hurry up, I''m going to change my clothes!"
The two of them went up to the second floor. Zhao Anan soon found that the overall decoration style of the vi was in the European style that she liked. Thebination of retro and modern styles was perfect. It had the charm of the European ssical aristocrats and the modern romance.
Mu Qing had decorated the house ording to her preferences. He had been preparing for this Wedding House for a long time.
Zhao Anan was both happy and sad. Tears came out of her eyes again. She wiped them away quickly, not wanting Mu Qing to see them.
Mu Qing had already seen it, but he didn''t say anything. He pretended that he didn''t see it. He handed her a lc swimsuit and said in an ambiguous tone,"Do you want me to help you change, or do you want to change yourself?"
The sadness in Zhao Anan''s heart was immediately washed away by his ambiguous tone.
She rolled her eyes at him and snorted,""In your dreams! Of course, I''ll change it myself!"
She grabbed the swimsuit and entered a random bedroom, then quickly changed.
However, after she changed into the swimsuit, she did not leave the house.
"Anan, you don''t need to change until dark, do you?" Mu Qing knocked on the door.
Zhao Anan opened the door angrily and red at Mu Qing."You still have the nerve to say that? How could you buy me such revealing clothes! You must be doing this on purpose, Hmph!"
Mu Qing looked at her from head to toe and nodded in satisfaction."Hmm, not bad. I have good taste!"
Zhao Anan stomped her foot in anger. It''s so revealing, I''m not wearing it!"
Mu Qing had bought her a bikini, which only covered the important parts of her body.
Of course, Zhao Anan was not satisfied. This was too much! Her previous swimsuits were the more conservative kind. They would not reveal more than half of her chest, and her underwear could not even cover her butt!
Mu Qing picked her up by her
waist and walked downstairs."You look very beautiful in this dress. I like it very much! It doesn''t matter if it''s exposed a little. I''m the only one watching it anyway, and there''s no one else at home. Oh, there''s also Auntie Dou to help with the cleaning. She''s a woman, so you don''t have to be shy. "
Zhao Anan struggled but to no avail. She had to give up and let Mu Qing carry her down the stairs. Then they entered the hot spring together.
Then she noticed that Mu Qing was only wearing a pair of blue swimming trunks. He was topless, showing his fair and strong chest muscles and sexy abs.
His legs were straight and slender, and he was well-proportioned, showing a mature charm unique to men.
Zhao Anan nced at him and felt a bit thirsty.
Hmph, his figure is getting better and better! Now, he was deliberately wearing only a pair of swimming trunks and swaying in front of her. He was definitely trying to seduce her. She couldn''t be fooled!
However, they were in the hot spring and Mu Qing was sticking close to her on purpose. She had to look at him.
Very soon, she stopped thinking about who was seducing who.
Because Mu Qing had such a great figure, she couldn''t bear to let go of him. She touched him all over his body and finally hugged him by the neck.
Mu Qing''s eyes were full of smiles.
It couldn''t be easier to make Zhao Anan throw herself into his arms.
He held Zhao Anan''s slim waist and ran his fingers across her smooth back, making her slightly numb and trembling.
Zhao Anan suddenly came back to her senses and pushed Mu Qing away angrily."Stay away from me, don''t tempt me anymore!"
Mu Qing looked at her innocently."You are so unreasonable. I didn''t do anything. You were the one who threw yourself into my arms and held me. Your hands were touching me all the time. I should be grateful that I didn''t think that you were seducing me. How could youin about me first?"
"You have such a good figure ..." Zhao Anan mumbled.
"What did you say?" Mu Qing didn''t hear her clearly.
"I say, you''re nothing good! Stay away from me, don''t disturb me from soaking in the hot spring!"
The hot spring in this vi was built in the most natural style.
The hot spring pool was made of bluestone, and it had a natural curve, like a naturally formedrge stone pit. Beside the hot spring pool, there were many strange rocks stacked on top of each other. The strange rocks were surrounded by clusters of green bamboo. It didn''t look like an indoor hot spring at all, but more like a pure natural outdoor hot spring.
Zhao Anan found a big rock andy on itfortably. She rxed her body and was almost floating in the water.
Mu Qing stood up and walked to her side after she had chosen the ce. Then hey down on another rock beside her.
The water in this area was rtively shallow. Lying on the rock at the bottom of the water, he could just stick his head out. His whole body was soaked in the water, which was veryfortable.
The hot spring was carefully designed by the vi''s designer. It pursued the beauty of nature and considered thefort of the hot spring.
Zhao Anan le
t out a sigh of satisfaction.
It was sofortable that she really wanted to stay in there forever.
She stared at Mu Qing with her bright eyes and asked curiously,"Howe I didn''t know that there''s a hot spring Vi in A city? Who developed this vi area? You''re really too talented!"
Mu Qing was also rxed in the hot spring.
He had been on the move for four days and four nights, and he had only slept for less than ten hours. He had also experienced the greatest emotional ups and downs, so he was extremely tired.
If Zhao Anan hadn''t suddenly spoken, he might have fallen asleep.
Chapter 735: Warm
Chapter 735: Warm
Hearing Zhao Anan''s voice, Mu Qing opened his eyes slowly and said with a smile,"All the hot spring Vis here were developed by Jingsheng enterprise."
"My brother?" Zhao Anan widened her eyes in surprise.
After five seconds, she retracted her surprised expression and said matter-of-factly,""That''s right, only my brother can be so powerful!"
"Originally, no one was optimistic about this piece ofnd. Everyone felt that it was very difficult to develop this kind of ce, and even if it was developed, it wouldn''t be able to be sold since it was in such a remote location. Only master Jing bought thend, but many people objected to it. "
Mu Qing was one of the few people who knew about the development process of the vi. He exined to Zhao Anan in a slightly hoarse voice.
"But it turned out that master Jing was right. He was very knowledgeable and was very proficient in those umon things. He guessed that there was an underground hot spring here only by looking at some of the foundation information provided by the government. Later on, a hot spring was discovered during the deep development, and this ce became the most popr and expensive vi area. "
"There are a total of 101 vis in this area, but only 17 of them have hot springs. Each set was extremely rare and expensive. After the news of the hot spring was spread out, Jingsheng enterprise didn''t even need to do any advertising. All the vis here were sold during the construction. It''s normal that you don''t know about it, because there''s no publicity here. In fact, many people don''t even know that there''s a hot spring in this vi area. "
When Jingsheng enterprise was developing this vi area, Jing Yichen was not the president of Jingsheng enterprise at that time. Jing zhongxiu was the president.
But Jing Yichen had been involved in the operation of various businesses and development of new fields of family Jing. It was Jing Yichen''s decision to buy thisnd.
This piece ofnd was so vast that Jingsheng had spent three billion Yuan to buy it.
This was also because no one was optimistic about this ce, so the government did not raise the price. Compared to other ces in A city, this ce was already considered rtively cheap.
Many people in Jingsheng were against the idea of spending three billion Yuan to buy a piece of wastnd.
Jing zhongxiu was the only one who supported his son. He had never seen thend and he didn''t need to see it. Three billion Yuan was not a big deal to him. If Jing Yichen wanted to invest in it, then let him do it. He didn''t care if he lost it.
However, by the time the vi was built, the total price of the sale had already reached hundreds of billions, and the profit had increased by dozens of times.
Those who knew the inside story in Jingsheng changed their opinions about Jing Yichen. This was one of the reasons why Jing Yichen became the president of Jingsheng enterprise so smoothly.
Zhao Anan had seen too much of Jing Yichen''s legend, so she didn''t feel anything about it now. She just felt a little strange."Why didn''t my brother leave the best hot spring Vi for himself? why did he give you the best one?"
This was not Jing Yichen''s style. If he wanted something, he would always pick the best one. &nb
sp;
Mu Qingughed proudly. "That''s because he hadn''t met his sister-inw at that time. He thought he didn''t need this kind of vi! After he got married, my house was renovated and I paid him. Even the servants moved in. Of course, he couldn''t take it back!"
Zhao Anan suddenly realized what was going on.
That was the only possible reason. Jing Yichen had never liked living in such a big, empty vi. He always liked to live in the high-rise buildings that looked like residential areas.
So he really wouldn''t have bought this vi before. By the time he got married to Shangguan ning, all the houses here would have been sold out.
Zhao Anan and Mu Qing were talking for a while, and then she found that he had fallen asleep.
This had never happened before. Mu Qing had never fallen asleep while talking to her.
He was probably too tired!
Zhao Anan sneaked to his side and saw him sleeping on the rock. She felt so much pain in her heart that she almost cried.
He was so silly. He knew that she would not agree to his proposal, but he still tried his best to prepare for it.
Even though he was in the hot spring, his face still showed obvious fatigue, which showed that he must have been running around for the past few days.
He was sleeping like a child in the hot spring. His handsome face was covered with water droplets. Zhao Anan wanted to wipe them off for him, but she was afraid of waking him up.
Soaking in the hot spring was good for the body, but not only was it not good for the body, but it was also harmful.
Zhao Anan hesitated for a while and decided to wake Mu Qing up. If only she was as strong as Lu, then she would be able to carry Mu Qing up and send him to the bedroom.
"Blockhead, wake up. Go to the bedroom upstairs and sleep. You can''t sleep here."
Mu Qing was in a deep sleep. The hot spring was toofortable and he was too tired. He fell into a deep sleep as soon as he rxed.
Zhao Anan had to wake him up several times.
Mu Qing opened his eyes and realized that he had fallen asleep in the hot spring. He smiled bitterly.
He took out tworge towels, one for himself and the other for Zhao Anan. He dried her up and then took her hands to take her upstairs to rest.
Lying on the bed, Mu Qing held Zhao Anan in his arms and refused to let her sleep in the bedroom next door.
"Don''t go, Anan. "
Mu Qing''s voice was low and full of love and gentleness.
"You stay by my side and don''t go anywhere. I won''t do anything stupid, I''ll just hug you. I want to open my eyes and see you, okay?"
Zhao Anan couldn''t refuse Mu Qing. He was so outstanding and could have chosen any better woman, but he liked her so much and so helplessly.
Her heart softened, and she replied softly,""Alright, I won''t leave."
Mu Qing fell asleep with her in his arms.
The vi was quiet and warm. The roses in the garden attracted countless butterflies to date. There were even many unknown birds that flew over and quietly stole the petals, then took them away to give to thei
r beloved.
The servant that Mu Qing had hired, aunt Dou, had cleaned the entire vi.
She was an honest and hardworking woman. She had lived alone in such a big and nice vi for more than a year and she could get arge sum of money from Mu Qing every month to support her son''s College education. She was very grateful to him.
It was the first time that the couple was staying here, so she was on high alert.
She ran a long way to buy all kinds of fresh vegetables, fruits, and meat, and then started to work in the kitchen.
When the two of them woke up, it was just in time for dinner.
Chapter 736: 99 diamonds
Chapter 736: 99 diamonds
Aunt Dou was cooking happily. She felt that thedy of the house was really lucky. Mu Qing was handsome, had a good temper, and was a very famous director. He was a good man that was hard to find!
She thought that when the two of them got married in the future, they mighte to live here more often.
Living alone in such a big house, she always felt that it was a little cold and empty, and it was too wasteful.
She had to find out what her mistress liked and make her more delicious food!
Zhao Anan and Mu Qing slept for the whole afternoon. Mu Qing did not wake up until the evening.
When he woke up, he saw Zhao Anan in his arms. He felt so full of happiness.
He couldn''t help but kiss her. Zhao Anan was a light sleeper and she woke up immediately.
"What time is it? Are you going to have dinner?"
"Are you a pig?" Mu Qingughed. Besides sleeping, you only know how to eat!"
"A man''s rice is as hard as steel, a meal without food will cause internal injuries!"
Zhao Anan got up from the bed in high spirits. She looked at her bikini and scrunched her nose."No, I have to put my clothes back on. You''re too bad! You actually bought this kind of swimsuit!"
Mu Qing pulled the strap of the swimsuit from behind her and the swimsuit slipped off, revealing Zhao Anan''s beautiful body.
Zhao Anan screamed and covered her chest with her hands. She said,"Mu Qing, you bastard! You''re taking advantage of me again!"
"Don''t cover yourself. Haven''t I seen all of your body? Come here, let me kiss you! I keep feeling that they''ve gotten bigger these few days, and I can''t hold them with one hand. "
Zhao Anan threw the sexy swimsuit on Mu Qing''s face. Then, she wrapped herself up with the nket and ran out of the room to put on her own clothes, regardless of whether Mu Qing was Dead or Alive.
When she was putting on her clothes, the big diamond ring on her finger hooked onto her clothes.
Zhao Anan took the clothes away carefully. She was not afraid that she would break the clothes, but she was afraid that she would break the diamond ring.
Although the diamond ring was definitely stronger than clothes, she was obviously more nervous about the ring.
The Zhao family was a family of jewelry, and she had grown up in all kinds of dazzling jewelry. In fact, she didn''t have much feelings for jewelry.
But she liked the diamond ring very much, not because of its high value, but because it was given to her by Mu Qing.
The ring had a special meaning, which was why Zhao Anan treated it so carefully.
The pigeon-egg sized diamond ring looked a little exaggerated on her slender fingers, but Zhao Anan felt very happy.
She didn''t want to take it off, so she put it on and hummed a song to Mu Qing to go to the restaurant downstairs for dinner.
The first floor of the vi was divided into two areas. The hot spring took up more than half of the area, while the dining room and kitchen took up the other half.
The hot spring was more than 200 square meters, and the dining room and kitchen were more than 100 square meters, which was very spacious.
When Zhao Anan followed Mu Qing to the restaurant, they passed by the hot spring and saw the misty view. It looked like a Fairnd, which made
her addicted to the hot spring again.
"Let''s soak in it for a while after dinner,"she said as she tugged at Mu Qing''s sleeve.
"If you like it, I don''t care if you swell up inside."
This meant that he had agreed.
Zhao Anan was so happy that her eyes turned into crescents. She had eaten a lot during dinner, which made aunt Dou very happy.
.
The female owner loved to eat her cooking. This was the greatest encouragement to her!
After dinner, Zhao Anan rushed back to her room. But she got a headache again when she saw the revealing swimsuit.
She sat on the bed with her chin in her hand and tried to think of a solution.
Before she coulde up with any good ideas, Mu Qing walked in without knocking on the door.
"What''s wrong with you? you didn''t even knock beforeing in! What if I''m naked now?"
"I wanted toe in when you were naked, but you were wearing clothes!"
"What are you doing here? Go out and wait, don''te in again!"
"I also bought you a present."
Mu Qing didn''t mind that she had been driven out of his room. Instead, he took out an exquisite jewelry box.
Zhao Anan fell silent.
There was a gift!
Just how many things had he prepared!
Mu Qing handed the box to her and said in a low voice,"Open it and take a look. I took a long time to choose."
Zhao Anan opened it curiously and saw a diamond ne in the ck velvet box.
The ne was very simple and did not have an overlyplicated design. However, the interweaving of tinum and diamonds made the entire ne shine with a dazzling light, making it look extremely luxurious.
By rough estimation, there were about 100 diamonds.
As expected, Mu Qing said,"There are 99 diamonds in total. They mean ''forever''. I thought you would like them because they were simple and beautiful."
In fact, this kind of gift was most suitable for the two of them when they got married. Usually, they would not give such an expensive gift for engagement. Otherwise, they would not be able to find anything more expensive than an engagement gift for their wedding.
But when Mu Qing was choosing the present, he had not thought about his marriage with Zhao Anan. He only wanted to buy the best for her.
Zhao Anan liked the diamond ne very much. It was a perfect match for the ring. It was so bright that it could blind people.
The ne and the ring must be priceless. Zhao Anan didn''t know their exact value, but she knew that Mu Qing would go bankrupt just to buy them.
"Where did you get so much money to buy these? Did you rob a bank?"
Mu Qing suddenlyughed,"what? are you afraid that I won''t have enough money to support you in the future?" Don''t worry, even if you don''t rob a bank in the future, I can support you with my medical skills!"
In fact, as long as the anti-cancer drugs he developed were sessful, once they were put on the market, the profit space would be huge.
They had invested nearly five hundred million Yuan in the beginning. Although it was all Jing Sheng enterprise''s capital and Jing Yichen would get the majority of the dividends, Mu Qing''s future
ie would be very impressive.
His wealth would increase rapidly and he would have no problem supporting Zhao Anan.
But even if he didn''t have money, he wouldn''t be stingy when it came to gifts for Zhao Anan.
He might not be as rich as Jing Yichen, but he was not poor either. Family MU''s Hospital made a good amount of profit every year.
He couldn''t afford six helicopters, but he could still afford things like diamond roses.
Zhao Anan wasn''t a greedy woman. Even if Mu Qing was penniless, she would still like him.
She liked Mu Qing only because of him.
Chapter 737-making the headlines!
Chapter 737-making the headlines!
However, she was heartbroken that Mu Qing had spent so much money to buy her these jewelries. Mu Qing was so good to her that she could not repay him.
Zhao Anan touched the ne fondly and said with a smile,"Put it on for me!"
Mu Qing took the ne and put it on for her from behind.
Zhao Anan stood up and walked to the mirror. She looked at herself for a long time and then said excitedly,"Aiya, I didn''t know I would look so good wearing this!"
In the past, she didn''t like any jewelry because she always felt that it was too cumbersome and inconvenient for her to fight.
But now, she really liked these things.
Was it because she was the principal now and didn''t need to fight anymore?
Or was it because Mu Qing was the one who had given her the ne?
Mu Qing wrapped his arms around her waist and put his chin on her shoulder. Heplimented her,"Yes, very beautiful! It''s very suitable for you!"
Some people couldn''t resist such a gorgeous and expensive jewelry, but Zhao Anan was a girl with an elegant appearance and temperament, so she was able to resist such a luxurious diamond ne.
Wearing the ne, Zhao Anan looked at herself in the mirror for more than half an hour before she remembered that there was still a hot spring.
She asked Mu Qing to take off the ne and put it back into the small box. Then she took off the diamond ring and put it together with the ne.
The water in the hot spring contained sulfide, which could easily corrode metals and make them lose their luster. Zhao Anan didn''t want to waste them in the hot spring.
After the hot spring, Mu Qing carried Zhao Anan back to the bedroom to sleep.
She had thought that Mu Qing would take advantage of the situation to get some benefits for himself. She had thought that since he had done so well today, she would satisfy him once if he wanted it.
But unexpectedly, Mu Qing just hugged her and slept quietly. He didn''t have any feelings for her at all!
Zhao Anan fell asleep in confusion.
Mu Qing opened his eyes when she fell asleep. He looked at his crotch.| A certain part of his body that was bulging up couldn''t help but smile bitterly.
Zhao Anan thought that he was not interested in her. How could that be?
With a beauty in his arms, if he didn''t have any reaction, was he still a man?
The reason why he didn''t touch her was that he had been injecting her with ovtion hormones recently and had already extracted the ovum fluid from her body twice. In the short term, her body was not suitable for such intimate activities, or else she would not be able to bear the pain.
It wouldn''t be toote to take her after he had taken the egg cells and helped her recuperate.
After a good night''s sleep, the next morning, the whole vi was filled with a fresh rose fragrance. Little birds were chirping happily in the garden, butterflies were dancing, and bees were busy flying. It was just like the beautiful scenery of Midsummer.
Zhao Anan woke up in Mu Qing''s arms. She got out of the bed and ran to the window. Looking at the beautiful scenery outside, she felt that this was the most beautiful moment of her life.
How she wished that she could do this every day in the future. She would fall asleep in Mu Qing''s arms and wake up in his arms. She wished that she could spend the rest of her life in such beautiful scenery. &nbs
p;
Mu Qing leaned on the bed and looked at the little woman who was standing in front of the window, barefooted. She was only wearing his shirt and a pair of underwear. He also hoped that they could be as happy as Zhao Anan in the future.
.
He knew that this was just a wild wish.
Zhao Anan didn''t agree to marry him. She didn''t even want to be intimate with him. She had always wanted to keep a distance from him, but she couldn''t leave him. That was why she was trapped in the cage that she had made herself.
It was impossible for her to sleep with him every night. Last night had already been an exception.
She would definitely return to the Zhao family''s house tonight. When he woke up the next day, he would not be able to see the little woman in the scenery looking at the scenery outside the window.
Mu Qing didn''t disturb Zhao Anan. He turned on his cell phone and went online to check thetest news.
As soon as he entered the news page, he didn''t know whether tough or cry at the headlines.
This was because the hottest headline in the news was his proposal from the day before!
The title was ''a romantic proposal in the rain of roses, a dog-tormenting skill!''
He clicked on it and found that the website was full of pictures of him and Zhao Anan. Some powerfulizens had contributed 360-degree pictures and even videos of the scene. He was the director of family MU''s Hospital, the youngest and most outstanding male doctor in A city.
Furthermore, the awards that he had received in the past were listed out one by one. He was given a dazzling title by manyizens: The god-like genius with the best looks in the medical world!
Mu Qing almost knelt down in front of the powerfulizens who had dug up all his ancestors!
Because his identity information was transparent and public, and the MU family was also a well-known and powerful family in A city, it was not difficult to find out.
Even mu Wensheng and Mu Qing''s cousins were exposed. Mu Wensheng''s title of "miracle doctor" had been passed down in Jianghu for a long time and his medical skills had indeed saved many lives, which led to a one-sided review on the inte.
Family MU''s Hospital had never been as famous as it was today!
However, Mu Qing was not happy at all. Cold sweat was running down his back.
If Zhao Anan had rejected his proposal, mu Wensheng would have lost his face and family MU''s Hospital would have been affected.
Mu Wensheng had always valued his reputation. He was highly skilled in medicine and was admired by many people. He had a high reputation in front of many high-ranking officials and dignitaries. If he was embarrassed because his grandson''s proposal was rejected, Mu Qing would definitely be beaten to death by his Grandpa.
This was something that Mu Qing had never thought of.
Luckily, Jing Yichen had kept Zhao Anan''s identity as a top secret and removed all traces of her life. Other than being able to find out that she used to be a teacher at University of X and was now the principal of University of X, they could not find anything else.
Otherwise, olddy Zhao and Zhao Zhao would also be on the news!
People were too powerful these days. A proposal could actually be exposed!
Mu Qing had forgotten that such a proposal was a rare sight.
The single dogs expressed that they couldn''t afford to be hurt! Manyizens leftments on the inte
,"I also want to go to university of X and pick up the Rose petals that symbolize love!"
The girls were all envious and jealous. Theyined about their boyfriends or husbands."Why are there only a few roses in my proposal? Look at the six helicopters scattering the Rose petals, and they are the most expensive and freshest rose petals imported from France!"
"He''s really rich. Is it so profitable to open hospitals now? I don''t want to study literature anymore, I''d better change my profession to medicine!"
"This is great. The most beautiful principal is taken. We plebeians arepletely out of the picture!"
Chapter 738-this is a big deal!
Chapter 738-this is a big deal!
Mu Qing''s cell phone started to ring before he finished reading the news.
The word "Grandpa" on the screen made Mu Qing''s face scrunched up. He was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat.
What I''m afraid of ising. The old man actually saw the news so quickly? Didn''t he not pay attention to such gossip?
But no matter how scared Mu Qing was, he had no choice but to answer the call, or he would die a worse death.
As soon as the call went through, the old man''s angry roar came from the other side,""You little bastard, look at what you''ve done! I''m already so old, and I''m still following a good-for-nothing like you to the headlines of gossip! Why the hell are you proposing for no reason? can you die if you just focus on being the director? Can I die?"
The old man was full of anger. The high decibel from the phone was so loud that Mu Qing''s ears were ringing.
Even Zhao Anan, who was by the window, heard what he said. She looked at Mu Qing as if she was watching a good show.
Mu Qing had no time to care about Zhao Anan at this moment. Grandpa was a very bad-tempered man. If he was provoked, he woulde to their house and beat them up.
"Um ... Grandpa, don''t be anxious. Look, isn''t this a good thing? our hospital''s reputation has improved a lot, and we can save a lot of money on publicity. I ..."
"Bullshit! Does our Mu family''s Hospital need to be hyped up? You have the nerve to say that you''re saving money? "Six nes are throwing roses down. I heard they''re France roses. Tell me, how much money did you save?" How many precious herbs could he buy with this money? How much advanced medical equipment can you buy?"
"Grandpa, this ... You can''tpare it like this. A proposal has to be Grand. This is different from buying medicinal herbs ..."
"Bah! Don''t talk nonsense, do you think I''m old and stupid? If you want to propose, why don''t you just buy a bouquet of roses? How dare you go to family Jing to borrow a helicopter? You''re quite capable now, aren''t you? did you spend all the money in the hospital?"
"How could that be, Grandpa? I''m using my own money. I didn''t touch a single cent from the hospital!" Mu Qing quickly made a promise. He could not afford to be used of such a crime.
"Your money is also the hospital''s money! If you waste any more money without my permission, I''ll ask old man Jing to freeze all your ounts! If he didn''tugh at me for making the headlines today, I would still be in the dark! I don''t even need to eat breakfast, I''m full from anger!"
It was Jing Tianyuan who had told mu Wensheng. No wonder the old man had reacted so quickly this time!
Mu Qing scratched his head. He had totally forgotten about Jing Tianyuan!
Jing Tianyuan was different from mu Wensheng. Mu Wensheng was devoted to his medical studies and rarely read the news online. But Jing Tianyuan was an entrepreneur who had been in the business world for most of his life. He always paid attention to the news in society and even the internationalmunity. He read the news every day even if he didn''t eat.
He would definitelyugh at mu Wensheng when he saw the news of his proposal to Zhao Anan on the headlines.
Mu Wensheng''s way of thinking was
still the traditional way of thinking of the older generation. He had lived a frugal life all his life and had never spent money recklessly. He had spent all his savings on investing in the construction of family MU''s Hospital and research Institute.
Seeing him squander like this, the old man''s heart would definitely be bleeding!
Fortunately, she was not by his side. If she was by his side, she would have been beaten ck and blue by him.
Mu Qing was embarrassed and didn''t say anything, but Grandpa mu was still angry. He roared,"Hurry up and go to the hospital. There are reporters everywhere. If you don''t handle it well and embarrass the MU family, you''ll go to the MU family''s ancestral grave and kneel on durians tonight!"
.
What?
The hospital was surrounded by reporters?
Mu Qing was having a headache. When Grandpa mu hung up the phone with a "bang," his handsome face had turned into a bitter one.
This matter ... Seemed to have blown up a little!
Zhao Anan, however, had always been a bystander. She climbed onto the bed with a smile and put her arms around Mu Qing''s neck. She blinked and said,"Aiya, don''t go to the hospital today. Stay here with me and I''ll strip for you to see! Let those reporters wait. The more you don''t appear, the more famous you will be. It''s a good thing! Who knows, a famous director mighte to you to shoot a movie tomorrow!"
Mu Qing smacked her bouncy bottom again and again. Thefortable feeling made him reluctant to leave.
"You can just follow along! Who am I doing this for? Now that I''m being scolded by the old man, not only do you notfort me, but you alsoe up with bad ideas. Are you trying to kill me?"
He wanted to see Zhao Anan do a striptease, but she must have said that to provoke him because she knew that he was leaving. She did not know how to dance!
"Aiya, I didn''t know my charm was so bad. No one even watches a striptease? I think there was someone who proposed to me with great fanfare yesterday, but he turned his back on me today. Fortunately, I didn''t agree to it. If I had, I would have suffered a loss!"
Zhao Anan''s tone was full of bitterness and exaggeration. She kept rolling her eyes and held Mu Qing''s neck, not letting him go.
Mu Qing was so angry that he lowered his head to bite the little cherry on her chest. Hearing her cry of pain, he raised his head and threatened,"If you don''t let go, I''ll tear off your clothes and F * ck you. Don''t call me a beast when that happens. I haven''t touched you for half a year, and it''s no joke to have an outburst all of a sudden. Hmm?"
Zhao Anan got off him in a hurry."Go, go, go, quickly get lost!"
She rubbed her chest where Mu Qing had bitten her and scolded him angrily,"Are you a dog? It bit me several times, it hurts!"
"It''s okay, you can bite back!"
"Woof! What''s there to bite?"
Mu Qing shook his head with a smile."Alright, I''m not going to argue with you anymore. I have to go to the hospital now. Remember to have your breakfast. Aunt Dou should have prepared it." After dinner, the driver from yesterday will send you to school. If you need anything at school, just give me a call. "
>
"Aren''t you going to eat?"
"It''s toote, I''ll go to the hospital first. "
Mu Qing said as he put on his clothes quickly, washed his face and went out.
Zhao Anan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the vi and watched Mu Qing walk out of the house, get into a ck Audi that had been parked in the vi and then gradually disappear from her sight.
That Audi used to be Mu Qing''s car. She hadn''t seen it for a long time. So he had left it here.
Did hee here often?
Or was he going to ... Bring her here to stay often in the future?

The vi was so big that Zhao Anan thought it was veryfortable and beautiful when Mu Qing was around. But she suddenly felt lonely when he left.
She didn''t feel anything when he was by her side, but she only realized his importance when he left her.
He hoped that Mu Qing could deal with it, otherwise Grandpa mu would scold him again, or even beat him up.
She was joking with Mu Qing, but she was more nervous than anyone else. She was afraid that mu Wensheng would think that Mu Qing was not mature enough and dismiss him from his position as the director or even drive him out of family MU''s Hospital.
Mu Qing had nothing but family MU''s Hospital.
He had devoted all his youth and energy to family MU''s Hospital, and he had a very deep feeling for it.
Zhao Anan stood by the window alone, looking at the beautiful swimming pool and the bright red roses outside. But she did not feel as happy as before.
Without Mu Qing, the flowers would not be beautiful.
Zhao Anan changed her clothes, ate breakfast quickly and asked the driver to send her to school.
Actually, it was Saturday. She didn''t have to go to work, but with such a huge proposal at school yesterday, today definitely wouldn''t be a peaceful day. She had to go to school to take a look in case something happened.
On the way to school, Zhao Anan received a call from the olddy.
"Anan, have you agreed to Mu Qing''s proposal?"
Obviously, the olddy had also seen the news.
Mu Qing had called the olddyst night and told her that Zhao Anan couldn''t go home for the night. He had to tell the olddy so that she wouldn''t be worried.
But he didn''t even mention it, because Zhao Anan didn''t agree to it at all. He couldn''t say it out loud to embarrass himself.
The olddy had agreed to let Zhao Anan stay at Mu Qing''s cest night, but she didn''t know why Mu Qing wanted Zhao Anan to stay until she saw the news this morning.
So it was a proposal!
And it was such a Grand and unparalleled proposal!
What made the olddy even happier was that the news said that Zhao Anan had agreed to Mu Qing''s proposal.
Could it be that his granddaughter had finallye to her senses?
However, just as the olddy was getting excited, Zhao Anan poured cold water on her."No, I didn''t agree to it!"
"What?"
The olddy''s brain short-circuited, and it took her a while to connect the route. She asked anxiously,"Why didn''t you agree? I saw on the news that you agreed! And you even took a video of Mu Qing''s proposal and I heard it clearly in the video. You said you were willing!"
Zhao Anan felt a little embarrassed, but she still said,"You believe me just because I said I''m willing? I''m just joking, don''t take it seriously!"
The olddy angrily mmed the table beside her with a bang, causing the dishes on the table to tter loudly.
"Nonsense! Is a proposal a joke? A promise is a promise, how can you go back on your word?"
"I''m thick-skinned and I''ve gone back on my word a lot. "
The olddy was still very angry, and her tone was a little cold."You can go back on your word for everything else, but you can''t go back on your word for this. Otherwise, what''s the point of pr
oposing? Where are you? I''ll send you the household register. "
Zhao Anan was surprised,"household register?" Why?"
"To get a Kongtong certificate!" The olddy said, enunciating each word.
"Don''t be like that, grandma!"
Zhao Anan got anxious and said helplessly,"Am I really your granddaughter? how can you push me away? I can''t get married to him, and that ... That Mu Qing has agreed to it!"
"He agreed?" The olddy was a little surprised.
"Yeah, he agreed!"
"He let you go back on your word? You don''t want to get married just because you say so? Isn''t he afraid of beingughed at?"
Mu Qing had spent so much time and effort to propose to her and now the whole city knew about it. If Zhao Anan didn''t marry him, he would lose face.
Zhao Anan was afraid that her grandma would force her to get the marriage certificate again, so she said quickly,"Yes, yes, yes, he''ll listen to me. He said he won''t force me. As long as I don''t marry someone else, he''ll do whatever he wants!"
When the olddy heard her words, she did not say anything for a long time. In the end, she sighed."Sigh, Mu Qing has spoiled you too much."
Hanging up the phone, Zhao Anan let out a long sigh of relief and sat in the car.
It really scared her to death. Grandma actually asked her to get a marriage certificate directly!
Wasn''t grandma afraid that Mu Qing would be in trouble if she died after getting the marriage certificate?
Grandma had always said that Mu Qing spoiled her too much, and so had she.
Grandma knew that it was not fair for Mu Qing to marry her. She was even having a hard time getting pregnant and keeping herself alive. Most men would not want her if they were not after money.
Her grandmother just loved her too much and wanted her to have a home. No matter how long she could live, there would always be someone to take care of her. Xuxu''s grandmother always said that she was old and didn''t have many years left. She had always hoped that her only granddaughter could have a home of her own.
Zhao Anan was having a lot of thoughts along the way. She was having a hard time.
On one hand, she was dying to marry Mu Qing and be his wife, but on the other hand, she was trying hard to control her longing and desire for him. She always felt that she would not live for long. As time went by, that feeling became stronger and stronger.
She didn''t know how much effect Mu Qing''s drug would have on her. She only knew that even Germany, which had the most advanced technology and equipment for Cancer Research, couldn''t guarantee that she could stay alive.
On the contrary, the attending doctor in Germany had said that the probability of her life being saved was very, very low.
Forget it, I don''t want to think about it anymore.
Every time Zhao Anan thought of these things, she would be in pain. If she was not a cheerful person, the pressure of death would have crushed her.
When she arrived at the school, the moment she got out of the car, the reporters swarmed up and started snapping away. The intense shes almost blinded her eyes!
"Miss Zhao, I''m a reporter from the penins Evening News. Are you the new principal of University of X?"
Wasn''t that nonsense? If I''m not, then are you! &nb
sp;
Zhao Anan covered her eyes to block the light and cursed in her heart.
"Miss Zhao, I''m a reporter from Zhou Ji of xxx entertainment. Do you have anything to say about yesterday''s proposal? Do you have anything you want to say to the other single girls?"
I want to say, you''re so noisy, shut up! Would that work?
Zhao Anan took her hands away. As soon as she opened her eyes, a sh of light came from the camera and the world turned white.
"Miss Zhao, when do you n to get married to Mr. Mu? He just proposed to you yesterday. Why didn''t he send you to work today? Did something happen to your rtionship?"
Chapter 740-surrounded
Chapter 740-surrounded
Hearing this, Zhao Anan was very angry. You are the one who has a change in your rtionship! If you reporters hadn''t gone to family MU''s Hospital so early in the morning to make a scene, would he not havee to send her off?
"Miss Zhao, you''re only 28 years old and you''re already the principal of the century-old university of X in A city. Did Mr. Mu use his connections to send you in?"
"Miss Zhao, it is said that you have an intimate rtionship with the senior management of Jingsheng enterprise. Can you tell me which senior management is it and what is your rtionship with him?"
"Miss Zhao, what does your family do? I heard that you''re a rich second generation and used to fight with others. You were expelled because you beat up a student in the school, is that true?"
Countless questions rang in Zhao Anan''s ears N each one was sharper and more tricky than thest. She could barely react.
Their eyes were blinded by the shes, their ears were deafened by these people, and even the air around them seemed to have been plundered!
Zhao Anan almost couldn''t catch her breath.
Fortunately, after she became the principal of University of X, she had been in front of many cameras countless times. Fortunately, she had gotten used to this kind of malicious attack. She really had to thank those old perverts in the school who provoked her every day. Otherwise, she would not have been able to calm down so quickly.
She took a deep breath and suppressed her wildly beating heart. She tried to keep her expression calm. Then, ording to the standard posture that she had practiced for two months under the guidance of her etiquette teacher, she raised her head and chest and waved at all the reporters with a graceful smile on her face.
But she didn''t say a word, even though she really wanted to give all these reporters a scolding!
She didn''t exin any of the questions or misunderstandings.
Under such circumstances, all exnations were useless. It would only attract more people with malicious intentions to guess that Yingying was a malicious person. No matter what you said, he would not think in a good way.
Soon, Jing Yichen''s assistant ran past all the reporters and came to Zhao Anan''s side. She reached out her arms to protect her and said to the reporters, "I''m the principal''s assistant, Jin ning. Our principal doesn''t ept any interviews, and the proposal is her private matter. Please don''t disturb the principal''s life and the order of the school. Everyone, please make way. The principal has to go to work. "
Jin ning said and waved at knife Lee and his men who were standing around the journalists. Then knife Lee and his 12 men broke through the journalists "circle and walked out with Zhao Anan.
Jin ning protected Zhao Anan as she whispered in her ear,""Continue smiling and waving."
Zhao Anan understood what Jin ning meant. One of them was the good cop, and the other was the bad cop.
He was in charge of fending off the reporters ''attacks coldly, while she had to show the kindest side to the reporters. It seemed that all the celebrities in the entertainment industry were like this. They were very friendly to the people, but their assistants and managers were very fierce.
Her smile wa
s even more sincere than before, and she waved at the reporters from time to time, as if she was very easy to talk to, but her assistant didn''t allow her to speak nonsense.
From the time Zhao Anan got out of the car to the entrance of the office building, it was only a distance of a dozen meters, but it took her more than ten minutes to walk. On average, he was only moving one meter per minute, which was as fast as a snail!
While they were walking, there were reporters who kept asking questions and taking photos. They didn''t care about their lives at all. As long as there was eye-catching news, they would rush over.
If knife Lee had not been protecting Zhao Anan today, the journalists would have hurt her.
Zhao Anan let out a sigh of relief after she got into the office building and got rid of the journalists.
Good thing she wasn''t a celebrity!
If she was a celebrity, the number of reporters today would definitely be several times more!
No wonder so many celebrities suffered so much at the hands of the paparazzi and reporters. It turned out that it was so painful to be followed!
Zhao Anan was sitting on the chair, drinking water. Jin ning was sitting on the sofa, wiping the sweat off her forehead.
Fortunately, knife Lee and his men were guarding outside, otherwise the reporters would have rushed in!
"Aiya, these reporters are too strong! My eyes are still white, I can''t see anything!"
Zhao Anan rubbed her eyes and then picked her ears."Why are my ears buzzing too!"
Jin ning smiled bitterly."Principal, you''re a celebrity now. There''ll definitely be reporters following you for the next few days. Remember not to talk nonsense." No matter how bad their words are, you can''t scold them back, much less hit them. "
Zhao Anan had pped the teachers who had provoked her at school before. She was in a bad mood now. She didn''t care about the journalists, but she dared to hit the king!
Jin ning was afraid that she wouldn''t know the severity of the situation, so he carefully warned her.
Zhao Anan understood that. She had never treated Jin ning as an assistant, but as a teacher. She nodded at once."Alright, alright, alright. I''ll listen to you and definitely won''t make a move!"
Jin ning let out a sigh of relief. He was now Zhao Anan''s assistant, but he was Jing Yichen''s man, so he knew Zhao Anan''s identity very well.
Fortunately, Zhao Anan had been very respectful of his opinion for the past few months. After the initial embarrassment, nothing had happened to her. Even if he was not by her side, she could deal with many crises by herself.
The task that Jing Yichen had given him was to turn Zhao Anan from an arrogantdy who knew nothing into a woman who would talk nonsense to anyone.
With Zhao Anan''s carefree personality, it would take her at least five hundred years of cultivation to be a human spirit.
Jin ning didn''t dare to hope that she could turn into a human spirit or turn her into a knowledgeable woman from someone who didn''t know anything. It was already amazing enough that she could take charge of a field!
Zhao Anan was surrounded by journalists, and so was Mu Qing. He was even craz
ier than Zhao Anan, because there were not only journalists with cameras, but also many crazy women.
These women, without exception, had only one purpose: Dating!
Mu Qing was much more experienced than Zhao Anan in dealing with cameras and reporters.
He had given many speeches atrge international academic reports and won many medical research awards. He had faced countless shes and reporters from various countries.
So he was not flustered and answered some of the journalists ''questions. He denied all the negative rumors about Zhao Anan. He just smiled and did not answer any questions about Zhao Anan''s identity.
Chapter 741: Jing Yichen is childish
Chapter 741: Jing Yichen is childish
Mu Qing had never expected that the women who were pursuing him would be so crazy.
His proposal had caused a sensation in the entire A city. Why did these women still shamelessly chase him? Wasn''t this destroying other people''s rtionship?!
However, it was not difficult to deal with these people. He only needed to repeat,""I have a fiance. I just proposed to her yesterday. Didn''t you see the news?"
Mu Qing''s response was very appropriate and he left a good impression on the reporters. No one made a scene in the hospital, so the reporters left after an hour. Only the women who were pursuing Mu Qing were still not willing to give up. They started to line up for treatment.
Mu Qing didn''t dare to be careless. He immediately called Jing Yichen for help.
"Master Jing, I need your help to deal with the reporters. They are all crazy. I don''t know what they will write."
Jing Yichen took a look at his wife, who was browsing the news with great interest. Hearing her exmations from time to time, he felt very ufortable.
He said coldly,"I''ll walk the path I''ve chosen even if I have to kneel." Yesterday, you looked like you wanted to force all the men in the world to their deaths, so it''s normal for you to be forced to your death today. "
"Don ''t! I''ll kneel to you, okay? If the hospital is involved, I''ll be beaten to death by the old man! Please do us a favor, you can''t just leave us in the lurch!"
Mu Qing didn''t know what had annoyed Jing Yichen, but it was not a bad idea to put up a good front and act pitiful.
Jing Yichen didn''t like to listen to other people''s nagging. If they kept on bothering him, he would definitely agree to it in order to seal his mouth.
"Well ... I just wanted to give Anan a surprise, but I didn''t expect it to be so big. The old man was so angry this morning that he could burn me to death even if I was half A city away! If there are any negative reports about our hospital tomorrow, he will definitely burn me to death!"
After a while, Jing Yichen couldn''t stand it anymore. "That''s enough. Shut up. I''ll take care of the reporters."
Mu Qing was overjoyed. He was about to say a few words of thanks when Jing Yichen hung up the phone.
Alright, this person was now a "living Lei Feng," not even allowing others to thank him for helping!
Jing Yichen didn''t want to hear Mu Qing''s voice at all, because he had heard Shangguan ning praising Mu Qing all morning.
How could he be happy when she wasplimenting another man in front of him!
"Haha, doctor mu is quite photogenic. He''s even more handsome than usual!"
"Look, look, look, Yichen, this is the most handsome one when hees down from the ne! It''s like a Prince descending from the sky to marry his Princess!"
"Anan was shocked. Look at her, she''s dumbfounded. The Rose petal fell on her head! Doctor mu was really generous. An ''an had even agreed to his proposal! God, I spent so much effort and didn''t seed, but he actually seeded!"
Shangguan ning didn''t notice that Jing Yichen''s face was turning darker and darker. She had been reading all the news about them and watching the proposal video over and over again.
She was very happy for Zhao Anan,"I didn''t know that doctor mu was such a romantic person." An
''an was right to follow him! I''m so touched by this video that I''m about to cry!"
Jing Yichen couldn''t stand it any longer. He grabbed her phone and turned it off. Then he said calmly,"If you like it, I can propose to you again and let the whole of A city have a rain of roses."
Shangguan ning was stunned. It took her a while to realize what Jing Yichen was talking about.
She looked at Jing Yichen carefully and saw that his face was dark. She couldn''t help but smile and put her arms around his waist."What are you thinking? No matter how good other people''s proposals are, they can''t bepared to yours! This isn''t apetition of who has more flowers, nor is it apetition of who has a bigger scene, but the person who proposed!"
Jing Yichen''s face looked a little better.
.
"Besides, in my heart, you are the best. No one canpare to you! I''m just happy for Anan. Why are you jealous?"
"Who''s jealous? You''re wrong. "
"If you''re not jealous, why is there such a strong sour smell in the room?"
Shangguan ning held Jing Yichen in her arms andughed. She thought that Jing Yichen was so cute when he was jealous.
It was only at this moment that the omnipotent him would show a little childish and impulsive.
Jing Yichen looked down at the woman in his arms, who was smiling brightly. Her face was as white as Jade. He touched her gently with his fingers and lowered his head to kiss her.
"My proposal may not be as Grand as this, and I''m not good at it. But if you like it, I can do it for you."
It was true that Jing Yichen had a cold and unromantic personality. The proposal that he had made was based on the experiences of many other people.
Of course, Shangguan ning knew about this.
She kissed Jing Yichen back with a smile and said softly,"Silly girl, I am touched by Anan and Mu Qing''s love, not by the flowers. Did I marry you for money? Because of the flowers?"
Jing Yichen was in a much better mood. He warned her, "You''re not allowed to praise other men like that in the future. No one is allowed to do so. I''ll be unhappy. If I''m not happy, the consequences will be very serious!"
Shangguan ning didn''t know whether tough or cry. So he was angry because of this. She had said a few good things about Mu Qing because she was touched by Mu Qing''s true love for Zhao Anan, not because she had any feelings for Mu Qing.
What a jealous man!
But ... She liked it!
"Alright, I won''t praise anyone else in the future. I''ll only praise you, okay?"
"Yes, I can!"
"Then can I trouble master Jing to return my phone to me?"
"No, in order to prevent you from going online and staring at other men, I''ve confiscated your phone for the next two days. If someone calls you, I''ll answer the call for you."
Shangguan ning bit his shoulder angrily."I will call Anan. I won''t watch the news anymore!" She said.
"That won''t do either."
"Then I''ll use your phone!"
Jing Yichen thought for a minute and finally gave his phone to Shangguan ning.
His phone was encrypted because he had a lot of secret files and confidential contac
ts. Thework was also specially set up with a firewall and password. Without a password and his fingerprint, there was no way to use his phone to go online, not even to make a phone call.
In other words, without his fingerprint and password, his phone would be useless!
He could only unlock the call function for Shangguan ning, but not the inte, so that she wouldn''t be able to stare at Mu Qing''s face.
He unlocked the phone and handed it to Shangguan ning. Shangguan ning red at him and then started to call Zhao Anan.
The phone was picked up after only one Ring. It was so fast that it surprised Shangguan ning.
Chapter 742: Other people act coquettishly for money, but you act coquettishly for life!
Chapter 742: Other people act coquettishly for money, but you act coquettishly for life!
Zhao Anan had never answered the phone so quickly before. She would only pick up the call slowly after her phone rang for a long time!
"Hello, brother, what''s the matter? do you have any instructions?"
He spoke in a cautious and fearful tone.
Shangguan ning immediately understood why Zhao Anan picked up the phone so quickly this time.
It turned out that it was Jing Yichen''s phone number. She thought that it was Jing Yichen who called her, so she picked up the call so efficiently.
Aiyo, she was really going to die of anger!
The difference in treatment was huge!
"Zhao Anan, I am not your brother. I am your sister-inw!"
"Oh my God, you scared me to death! I thought it was my brother, I was nervous for nothing! Why are you using his phone to call me? you can scare people to death, you know? My brother only knows how to speak nicely to you, but he can freeze people to death when he talks to others! Every time I receive his call, I have to quickly think about what trouble I''ve gotten into recently and beg for mercy in a low voice!"
Hearing that it was not Jing Yichen, Zhao Anan started to ramble on.
She and Mu Qing had just caused a "big trouble" yesterday, which had shocked all the journalists in the city. And today, they had made the headlines and the whole school was in chaos. She had thought that Jing Yichen had called to scold her.
Zhao Anan was not afraid of anything but Jing Yichen.
Shangguan ning was both angry and amused. She had wanted to give her a good scolding for caring so much about Jing Yichen and not caring about her at all, but she didn''t know what to say after hearing her speak so pitifully.
Zhao Anan listed a lot of things about Jing Yichen that made people afraid of him. She took a big gulp of water to moisten her throat and asked,"Is there something you need?"
Shangguan ning had almost forgotten about the important matter, and only remembered it when she asked.
"An ''an, congrattions!" She said happily.
Zhao Anan had just finished dealing with the reporters and had a few words with Jin ning in the office when she received Shangguan ning''s call.
Sheid on the table weakly and said nonchntly,""Why should I be happy?"
"Are you so forgetful now? Didn''t you agree to Mu Qing''s proposal? When are you getting married?"
"Oh, you mean this!" Zhao Anan still soundedzy."I was just joking. Why did you take it so seriously?"
Shangguan ning couldn''t believe her ears!
"What? Can you repeat that?"
"Ah, I was just joking. So many people were watching yesterday. I have to give Mu Qing some face. So, I''ll just deal with it and agree!"
Shangguan ning was furious.
How could this be a joke? You can even deal with this?
"You, you, you ... You''re pissing me off!"
Shangguan ning was so angry that she couldn''t even speak properly.
All the people in A city had been fooled by Zhao Anan!
She still refused to marry Mu Qing.
There were so manyments on the inte wishing her and
Mu Qing a happy life, and some were so jealous that they even said that Zhao Anan was so lucky.
In the end, she had done it for Mu Qing''s sake.
Shangguan ning gritted her teeth and said,"well done. They have spent so much time and money. You are just ying around, aren''t you?" You made me happy for nothing! I thought I finally didn''t have to worry about you, and I didn''t have to be the bad guy anymore! I thought the things I prepared wouldn''t be of any use, but it seems like I have to continue using them!"
Zhao Anan was confused,"wait, what are you talking about?" What viin? What should I use next?"
"Nothing. I have been concerned about your marriage. I am very sad that you rejected Mu Qing. What''s the matter? is there a problem?"
"I feel that you''re acting weird, but I can''t tell what''s wrong with you. Beautifuldy, we are best friends. You can''t hide anything from me! I''m the one who introduced you to your husband. I''m the matchmaker for you two ..."
It''s here again!
Shangguan ning rolled her eyes speechlessly. Zhao Anan had used this joke so many times.
It didn''t matter. She would be Zhao Anan''s matchmaker soon.
The two of themughed and quarreled on the phone. After hanging up, Shangguan ning became serious and called Zheng Jing."Anan promised Mu Qing to marry him, but she went back on her words today. I''ll try to get them married at the end of the month!"
On Monday morning, Zheng Jing drove to the University of X and went to Zhao Anan''s office as usual.
But before he arrived, knife Lee was already talking to Zhao Anan.
"Anan, you are not willing to marry Mu Qing because you are waiting for me to propose to you and then marry me, right?"
Zheng Jing almost fell down when he heard what knife Lee had just said.
Zhao Anan spat out the coffee that she had just taken a sip of.
She looked at knife Lee in shock,""You think too highly of yourself!"
"No?" knife Lee was confused.
"Of course not!" Zhao Anan said firmly. You''re thinking too much!"
"Mu Qing is so nice to you and his proposal is Grand enough. Why don''t you agree? Are you sure that you didn''t reject Mu Qing because you liked me?"
Zhao Anan was stunned.
She couldn''t drink her coffee anymore. As soon as she saw Zheng Jing, she immediately went over to hold his arm and said in a sweet tone,"No, I don''t like you. I like officer Zheng!"
Officer Zheng, who was being hugged tightly by her, froze and goosebumps immediately appeared all over his body!
Zhao Anan, can you please talk properly? If you don''t know how to act coquettishly, then don''t pretend. Other people want money when they act coquettishly, but you want your life!
What was worse was that knife Lee fixed his sharp eyes on Zheng Jing and clenched his fingers so tightly that they made cracking sounds. It looked like he was going to give him a beating!
Zheng Jing wanted to cry. Why was he always the one getting hurt?
He''s not ying anymore, alright?
He was just an actor, yet his life was in danger!
He was going home to find
Zheng Lun andfort his broken heart.
Knife Lee didn''t care if Zheng Jing was hurt or not. He liked Zhao Anan. He had wanted to wish her happiness when he saw that she had agreed to Mu Qing''s proposal. But he had heard from Tiger that Zhao Anan had changed her mind after she had agreed. She would never marry Mu Qing!
He thought that if Zhao Anan didn''t like Mu Qing, she must like him.
That was why he hade to ask her this morning.
Knife Lee thought that Zhao Anan was a good girl and he didn''t want to miss this opportunity.
"Officer Zheng, are you going to fight with me for Anan?"
Chapter 743: I like her too
Chapter 743: I like her too
Knife Lee''s voice was low and his face was serious.
Although he didn''t think that Zheng Jing liked Zhao Anan very much, but he had been visiting Zhao Anan more frequently than Mu Qing, which meant that he liked Zhao Anan as well.
Zheng Jing was forced into a dilemma.
He didn''t want to lie to knife Lee. Knife Lee wasn''t a bad person. On the contrary, he was a righteous person who was willing to sacrifice for his brother. He was a person worth making friends with.
He liked Zhao Anan sincerely, and he was very persistent about it. And he had always respected Zhao Anan. Although he had said that he would marry her, he had never touched her. He had only been protecting her silently.
But knife Lee''s love for Zhao Anan would not end well.
Even Mu Qing had failed after 11 years of chasing. How could he seed in such a short time?
The most important thing was that Zhao Anan didn''t like knife Lee. It would not be good for him if he fell deeper into the trap.
And why did hee to Zhao Anan every day? Was he really that idle? He was the strong helper for Zhao Anan and Mu Qing! It was just that he hadn''t started to use his strength yet.
Shangguan ning had given him the task of pursuing Zhao Anan, although he had never shown it clearly.
Zheng Jing hesitated for a while, but still held Zhao Anan''s shoulder and said to knife Lee, "I''m not fighting with you. Anan is not yours. I like her too, but I won''t force her. However, I don''t think you stand a chance. Just give it up. It''s good for you and Anan. "
Zhao Anan had been winking at Zheng Jing, hoping that he would help her put on an act. But when she heard him say that he liked her too, she felt very awkward.
She had heard Mu Qing''s confession of love many times. He said,"I love you, I like you, I miss you," and so on. She had never felt awkward about it. When she heard it from knife Lee, she was a little surprised and helpless, but she didn''t feel awkward at all.
At this moment, Zhao Anan didn''t know that the reason why she felt Zheng Jing''s words were so awkward was because Zheng Jing himself was also very awkward.
Even if it was an act, it was still a painful thing to say that she liked Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan didn''t know about Zheng Jing''s inner turmoil and pain. She held Zheng Jing''s arm with a sweet face and called him in a delicate voice,"Brother Jingjing, you''re the best to me! I like you the most!"
Zhao Anan had no pressure at all when she said that she liked Zheng Jing. Acting was so fun! Zhao Anan was very happy that she could take the opportunity to torture him.
Zheng Jing''s body stiffened and his blood almost froze.
He couldn''t force a smile on his face. All he wanted to do now was to throw Zhao Anan out of the window.
Zheng Jing didn''t say anything, but knife Lee wouldn''t let him go.
He strode to Zheng Jing and said seriously,"I think I''m more suitable for Anan than you are, and I like her more than you do. Don''t ruin her life. Let her be with me!"
H
e looked so serious and his tone was so sincere that both Zheng Jing and Zhao Anan were startled.
Zheng Jing didn''t expect that knife Lee had such deep feelings for Zhao Anan, and neither did Zhao Anan herself.
She had always thought that she and knife Lee were sworn enemies. They didn''t even have friendship, let alone love!
She thought that knife Lee just did it on a whim, and that his feelings for her were not love. It was just because they had been together for a long time, and she was the woman he was most familiar with, so he liked her.
.
She had thought that he would give up after she had rejected him so clearly.
However, when she looked at knife Lee''s sincere and persistent eyes, she realized that she was wrong!
He really liked her!
Zhao Anan was suddenly flustered. Mu Qing was the only one who truly loved her in her life. The rest of the people only wanted to have fun with her, or they were only interested in her family background. None of them treated her seriously.
And now, even knife Lee had fallen for her!
What should he do?
She was already feeling guilty for hurting Mu Qing, and now knife Lee was involved. She felt even more guilty!
Zhao Anan took a deep breath and decided to tell knife Lee the truth.
"Knife Lee, I don''t like you, and I won''t marry you. You don''t have to be so stubborn anymore. I''m terminally ill, so I might not live for long. Go find a healthy girl and spend the rest of your life with her. I''m not suitable for you. "
Knife Lee was a little shocked and took a while to recover.
Terminal illness? Can''t live for long?
The news was so shocking that knife Lee''s heart ached and he almost stopped breathing!
He took a deep breath and looked straight at Zhao Anan. He asked anxiously,""What''s wrong with you? What illness did she have? Wasn''t Mu Qing the best doctor? He can''t cure you?"
Zhao Anan smiled bitterly, but soon her smile became bright again. She said,"Yeah, he can''t cure me, and I might die one day! So, you''d better go and like another girl. There will be no good result if you like me. Just look at Mu Qing and you''ll know. "
She felt that even if knife Lee did not give up on her, he would not be as persistent as before.
Knife Lee only stayed silent for a while before he said,""Anan, although I don''t know what illness you have, I''m willing to stay with you. No matter how long you can live, I''ll stay with you. Can you give me a chance to take care of you?"
Zhao Anan was startled.
Why didn''t knife Lee give up after she said that?
He simply didn''t give in to force or persuasion, and he insisted on what he had decided on!
What was so good about her that he was so persistent and refused to give up even when she said she had a terminal illness!
It was normal that Mu Qing didn''t want to give up on her. They had been deeply in love with each other, but why did knife Lee Love her so m
uch?
Oh my God, how kind of a person was she in her past life to have two men treat her so well in this life!
What should he do? To be honest, knife Lee didn''t take it seriously. He didn''t care if it was a lie!
Zhao Anan scratched her head anxiously. Seeing that Zheng Jing was silent, she shook his arm hard."Say something! Quickly tell knife Lee that he''s asking for trouble!"
"Knife Lee, you are asking for it!" Zheng Jing said.
Zhao Anan had been waiting for him to say more so that knife Lee would give up, but he only said one sentence. She couldn''t help but re at him. "It''s over?"
Chapter 744: Conspiracy
Chapter 744: Conspiracy
Zheng Jing looked at her with a matter-of-fact expression."Yeah, we''re finished!"
"You can''t be like this, you have to say a few more words! Aren''t you a detective? You should be very good at preaching. Show me what you''ve done to those criminals and persuade knife Lee!"
Zheng Jing held his forehead helplessly. Knife Lee was not a criminal. This was a rtionship problem, not a criminal case.
Knife Lee was also confused. He did not break thew and Zheng Jing was a Criminal Police officer.
Zheng Jing thought for a while and said the lines that he was supposed to say in a few days,"Anan, I have a good solution. I can make knife Lee stop pursuing you, and at the same time, I can also get rid of Mu Qing!"
Zhao Anan was overjoyed. She said hurriedly,"Hurry up and tell me, what is the good idea?"
"Marry me!"
The office fell into a strange silence as soon as Zheng Jing said those words.
After a long while, Zheng Jing heard Zhao Anan taking a deep breath.
She opened her eyes wide as if she didn''t know Zheng Jing at all. She asked in disbelief,"What did you just say? Can you repeat that?"
These three words were really not something that could be used as a joke!
And Zheng Jing didn''t look like he was joking. It didn''t seem like he was helping her out, but rather, he was pushing her into the fire pit!
Knife Lee also looked at Zheng Jing with a cold look."Yes, say it again!"
Zheng Jing felt much more rxed after he said that.
He had been under the weight of this huge stone for the past few days. The task that Shangguan ning had given him was too difficult and unexpected. It had taken him a long time to ept it. If Zheng Lun had not begged him to help Zhao Anan, he would not have agreed to it.
For one thing, Zhao Anan would definitely find out the truth in the future, and she would hunt him down all over A city.
Secondly, he was really not good at acting like this. He felt ufortable because he only liked Zheng Lun. It would be like killing him if he said that he liked Zhao Anan.
Luckily, he was very close to Zhao Anan and treated her like a boy. He could put his arms around her shoulders.
Shangguan ning had designed the lines for Zheng Jing a few months ago. In case Zheng Jing couldn''t say those mushy words to Zhao Anan, she had simplified them as much as possible. She had also taught Zheng Jing a way: He thought of Zhao Anan as Zheng Lun for the time being, so that he could practice his confession to Zheng Lun.
Zhao Anan was the perfect sparring partner for Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing felt much more at ease every time he thought of this.
In order to appear serious and serious, he mimicked knife Lee and looked at Zhao Anan with sincere eyes. "I''m not joking, and you didn''t hear me wrong. I said, I want you to marry me! Are you willing to do so?"
Zhao Anan blinked hard and then picked her ears. She felt that her eyes and ears were not working well today.
This man with such deep feelings was Zheng Jing?
Was he talking to her just now?
> Was it her or Zheng Jing who was still sleeping?
Did water enter his brain?
.
Zhao Anan refused to believe it. She grabbed Zheng Jing''s cor and almost pressed her face against his. She said through gritted teeth,"I didn''t hear you clearly. Say it again!!"
Zheng Jing took the opportunity to hold her by her waist and said affectionately,""I want to marry you, and you marry me. Won''t all our problems be solved?"
Zhao Anan got goosebumps all over her body when she was held by him.
Without thinking, she threw a punch at Zheng Jing''s face. His right cheek immediately swelled up.
Zheng Jing screamed and before he could say anything, Zhao Anan kicked him in the stomach and he fell to the ground.
"Argh! Zhao Anan, why did you hit people again? Stop!"
Zhao Anan was wiping her waist with all her might. She felt that it was very ufortable when Zheng Jing touched her waist.
She used to hold Zheng Jing in her arms all the time, and even held him in her arms when they fought. She had never felt anything wrong about it, but she felt a chill when Zheng Jing touched her today.
"I hit people? You shameless bastard, I still want to kill you! No, you''re not even human!"
Zhao Anan''s face turned red and her eyes were full of anger."You have the nerve to say such words? Don''t you know that you can''t bully a friend''s wife? Do you know that Lun and I are such close friends? How am I supposed to face her when you say such things? Do you even have the face to see her? I''m going to beat you to death for Lun today, you cruel and unscrupulous bastard!"
Zheng Jing got up from the ground and ran around the office, reciting his lines as he ran. "I''ve liked you for a long time! I didn''t want to ruin your rtionship with Mu Qing, but now you have rejected his proposal. If you don''t marry him, I will have a chance. If you don''t want knife Lee to pursue you, then wouldn''t it be great if you married me?"
Zhao Anan was chasing after him, throwing cups and books at him from time to time.
"Good, my ass! You''d better tell me that everything you said just now was a joke. If you''re serious, I''ll definitely kill you!"
She chased Zheng Jing all over the office and did not show any mercy. It was as if she and Zheng Jing had a deep grudge against each other.
"Don''t think that I don''t know just because you lied to me. Even a ghost wouldn''t believe you if you said you like me! You don''t look like you like me at all! My intuition tells me that there''s definitely something wrong with you recently! Tell me, what is your scheme?"
Zheng Jing didn''t expect that she had figured out this was a conspiracy.
It seemed that a woman''s intuition could not be underestimated. Zhao Anan had guessed that he did not really like her without any evidence. It was obvious that when it came to love, one could tell whether it was true or not with a little effort.
But Zheng Jing would never admit it.
He had insisted that he liked Zhao Anan.
"When did I not like you? Haven''t you noticed that I''ve been by your side every day?"
Of course Zhao Anan had noticed.
<
p> Zheng Jing had appeared in front of her almost every day during this period of time. Whether she was on the road, in the hospital, or on the way to Mu Qing''s house, she would always see him.
Ever since she had started working at University of X, Zheng Jing had been showing up almost every day.
She had always felt that Zheng Jing appeared too often.
She had suspected it many times, but every time she asked Zheng Jing, he always had a very good reason. He always appeared in a reasonable way, so she had to believe him every time.
However, if there were too many coincidences, then it would no longer be a coincidence!
Chapter 745-offending the peach blossom
Chapter 745-offending the peach blossom
It turned out that Zheng Jing had been following her on purpose.
Zhao Anan was so angry that her hair was standing on end when she thought of this. All the blood in her body rushed to the top of her head. She wanted to beat Zheng Jing to death.
"You finally admitted that you followed me! Very well, Zheng, I''ll let you have a taste of my power today. I''ll let you know why flowers are so red! Knife Lee, help me stop him, I want to beat this stinky stalker to death!"
Knife Lee was Zhao Anan''s only follower now. Hearing her words, he immediately went up to stop Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing was in a difficult situation.
He couldn''t understand why a woman''sbat power would be off the charts when she went crazy!
What had Zhao Anan taken recently? why was her endurance even better than his? She ran even faster than him!
Zheng Jing stopped, gasping for breath. He touched the wound on his arm and sat on the floor with a bitter smile."Stop, stop, stop. Stop chasing. If you continue, I''ll be exhausted to death by you!"
Zhao Anan stepped forward and pushed him to the ground. Then she spread her legs and sat on top of him.
This position was so intimate that Zheng Jing''s face turned red.
He had never been treated like this by a woman before!
Zhao Anan was so fierce that people couldn''t stand her.
Zhao Anan didn''t find anything wrong with her posture. She used to ride on the loser''s body like this after she won a fight, regardless of the gender of the loser.
This was because this position was the most oppressive, and it was very convenient to p!
She grabbed Zheng Jing''s cor so tightly that Zheng Jing almost couldn''t breathe.
"You are a bastard, Zheng Jing! I told you, you''re not serious! You actually dare to have ideas about this great aunt, are you tired of living? Tell me, what is the conspiracy! If you don''t tell me, I''ll break one of your arms first!"
"There''s no conspiracy! I like you, but I don''t dare to show it, for fear of making you angry. You see, now that I''ve told you the truth, you''re going to beat me to death. How can I dare to open my mouth?"
"Bah! Nonsense, following me every day means that you like me? So what if you''re a Criminal Police officer? so what if you know how to follow people? you''re breaking thew! I can report you for harassing an 18-year-old girl!"
"You''re already 28, how are you ..."
"Shut up! When I''m talking, did I let you interrupt?" Zhao Anan was riding on Zheng Jing and bellowed in a domineering manner. She loved to fight and she had had a great time today.
"We usually give the suspect a chance to defend when we arrest them. I didn''t do anything wrong, so why can''t I speak?" Zheng Jing was not convinced and tried to fight for the right to speak.
"Besides, I''m following you every day to protect you. I''m afraid that you''ll run away without a word again. Thest time you went missing for half a year, I was so anxious that I turned the entire A city upside down. You can''t have forgotten about this so quickly, right
?"
"Of course I didn''t forget. This matter doesn''t count. It must be Mu Qing who asked you for help, not you who are looking for me because you like me!"
"Then I''ll still treat you to meals, buy you coffee, and send you food every day! I''ve never been so good to any other woman, what do you have to say about this!"
"Woof! When have you ever treated me to a meal without me oppressing you? Every time, I''m the one who threatens you to fight with me before you''re willing to pay! You have the nerve to say that?"
"Zhao Anan, do you really think that I can be threatened by you so easily? I''m a Criminal Police officer. When I graduated from military school, I was the most outstanding graduate in all aspects. I could fight ten people without a problem. I''m willingly being oppressed and threatened by you. Are you so stupid that you can''t even tell?"
.
Zhao Anan was getting more and more confused and agitated as she listened to him. She had almost lost her ability to judge. She didn''t know which of Zheng Jing''s words were true and which were not.
She felt her head throb and she was going crazy!
She couldn''t ept Zheng Jing''s exnation.
How could he like her? This is impossible, this can''t be!
He couldn''t exin it to the kind and innocent Zheng Lun!
She had been looking after Zheng Jing for Zheng Lun, but now Zheng Jing hade to her.
Zhao Anan had never thought that she was also a ma for men.
Although she was pretty, she had a boyish personality. Which man would like a tough woman like her?
What was going on recently?
Was she unlucky this year? One after another, knife Lee, Wen Kang, Wu Xin, Mu Qing had been confessing to her for eleven years. There was no doubt about it, but now even Zheng Jing had joined in the fun!
Besides, Zheng Jing knew that Mu Qing was the only one she liked and that she was not able to give birth to a child. He also knew that she might not be able to keep her life.
What was he blindly following along for!
This seemed to have started after she became the principal. Could it be that her temperament had changed so much after she became the principal? Had she be a beautiful woman who was loved by everyone?
Zhao Anan''s brain was in a mess.
Her brain capacity was limited to begin with. It was fine toe up with a few ghostly ideas, but analyzing such aplicated matter would directly cause her brain to crash!
That, that ... Where was her assistant? Eh, what was her assistant''s name again?
Something like gold or silver? Oh, right, right, right, Jin ning!
What about Jin ning? Where did he go?
Why wasn''t he here at such a critical time?
Quickly help her analyze what exactly is going on!
Zhao Anan had a splitting headache. Zheng Jing, who was under her, was still telling her his "feelings."
"Anan, I''m in the same boat as knife Lee. He wants to protect yo
u, so do I! And every time I see you, I''ll especially bring money for you to snatch, just to make you happy!"
Zheng Jing felt goosebumps all over his body, but Zhao Anan had no reaction at all.
Her dead brain only caught the most important word: Money!
Robbing?
Oh, right, I forgot to get Zheng Jing''s money today! Money was a good thing. No one wouldin about having too much money!
She searched Zheng Jing''s body for a while and finally took out a familiar wallet from his pocket. Then she took out all the money and stuffed it into her bra. She threw the empty wallet to Zheng Jing.
Chapter 746: Go home and take your medicine
Chapter 746: Go home and take your medicine
Zheng Jing didn''t know whether tough or cry.
Wasn''t this girl a little too bold?!
She was still thinking about his money at a time like this! She even hid the money in such a secret ce, as if she was afraid that he would snatch it back!
Who would dare to snatch her away when she was hiding in her underwear! Don''t you want to live?
"You don''t have to snatch it. You can spend all my money in the future. You can have as much as you want!"
Zheng Jing felt that his acting skills were so good that he didn''t even frown when he said those words.
He didn''t frown, but Zhao Anan did."You shut up! Who wants your stinky money and wants to support me? How can you pay with this little money?"
"I''m not providing for you, I''m going to marry you! I want to ..."
Before Zheng Jing could finish his words, Zhao Anan gave him another punch. "Didn''t I tell you to shut up? Why are you still talking? If you dare to say that you will marry me and like me again, I will send you to a mental hospital right now!"
Now, Zheng Jing''s cheeks were as high as his.
His face was so swollen that it was difficult for him to even speak!
This wretched girl really dared to kill! Wasn''t he afraid of breaking his cheekbones?
Zheng Jing endured the pain on his face. He wanted to cry but had no tears. But he had to pretend to be so devoted. It was really hard on him.
He was not a professional actor, he was just a Criminal Police officer!
The original script was pretty good, but it waspletely different when it came to acting!
Zhao Anan did not y by the rules at all. She was extremely fierce and could not fight back. If this went on, she would die sooner orter.
"Anan, I have a gift for you!" Zheng Jing said through gritted teeth.
Zhao Anan red at him as if she wanted to eat him alive."A present? Where is he?"
"It''s in the innerpartment of my wallet!"
Was it? Why didn''t I notice it earlier?
Zhao Anan immediately picked up Zheng Jing''s wallet and rummaged through everypartment. Finally, she found a thin ne.
She pinched the thin and seemingly worthless ne with two fingers and sneered,""This is the gift you''re giving me? It looked really high-end! You bought the three fish at the street stall for ten Yuan, right?"
"Take a closer look. Don''t you find him familiar? Look at the symbol on it!"
Zhao Anan took a suspicious look at the LOGO on the ne and then her eyes widened."This is a ne from our family''s jewelry store?"
"Yes, this is the ne we bought from your family''s jewelry store!"
It suddenly urred to Zhao Anan that this ne was the one she had picked for Zheng Jing.
She asked fiercely,"didn''t you say you were giving it to someone?" Why did you give it to me again? This ne is only a few thousand Yuan, and it''s on discount. You have the nerve to give it to me? And why are you giving it to me?"
"I wanted to buy you a more expensive one, but you refused and insisted on getting a discount! You can''t me me for this!"
"
Bah! How would I know that you''re giving it to me! You''re so free that you''re giving me a ne?"
"Because I like you!"
.
Bang! Zheng Jing was punched in the chest."Stop this! I''ll kill you if you dare to mention it in the future! You can only like Lun, no one else but her! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will ask Mu Qing to stab you to death!"
Zhao Anan got down from Zheng Jing''s body and said disdainfully,"Get out of here, as far as possible. You''re not allowed toe to our school again!"
Zheng Jing was also in pain. He sat up from the floor weakly. He had wanted to say something, but seeing Zhao Anan''s gloomy face, he shut up.
He had finally finished his scenes today, and the rest would not be as dangerous as today!
He let out a sigh of relief. He couldn''t help but smile at the thought of Zhao Anan being tricked.
Zhao Anan saw that Zheng Jing could still smile and he was smiling at her face, as if he liked her very much.
Zhao Anan shivered.
No way. Did Zheng Jing really like her?
Oh my God, quickly give her a bolt of lightning and strike her to death!
How could she be so unlucky!
She didn''t know how many years she had left to live, but these people would pester her endlessly and waste her precious life!
Was Zheng Jing out of his mind? He didn''t like the gentle, beautiful, innocent and kind Zheng Lun, but he liked a violent woman like her!
Does he have masochistic tendencies?
I didn''t see it in the past!
Zhao Anan walked to Zheng Jing angrily and kicked him hard."Disappear from my sight immediately! Hurry up and go home to take your medicine!"
Luckily, she had kicked off her shoes when she was chasing Zheng Jing, so it did not hurt to kick him barefooted. Otherwise, he would have been bruised all over again.
Zheng Jing was in a good mood now that he hadpleted his task for the day. He got up from the floor, tidied up his clothes and hair, and walked out of Zhao Anan''s office.
After Zheng Jing was dealt with, Zhao Anan sat on the floor like a deted ball. She leaned against the wall and her mind went nk.
Why did today''s events feel so unreal to her?
She felt that something was not right, but Zhao Anan could not put her finger on it.
Zhao Anan frowned but could not figure out what was going on. She felt that her brain capacity was not enough. If she was half as smart as her brother, she would have figured it out today!
Zhao Anan''s brain wasn''t big enough, and knife Lee, who had been standing there and refusing to leave, didn''t notice Zheng Jing''s abnormal behavior because of his inexperience in love.
Of course, knife Lee would never have thought that Zheng Jing was just pretending to like Zhao Anan.
He had always felt that Zheng Jing was too concerned about Zhao Anan.
He also regarded Zheng Jing as his love rival and kept his guard up against him.
"Anan, don''t fall in love with Zheng Jing. He is not suitable for you and he seems to like his sister. You can''t have a two-timing man like him. I''m different from him. I only like you. Can you give me a ch
ance?"
Zhao Anan ignored the first and thest part of his sentence, but only heard the middle part.
It was as if she had found a soulmate. She happily recovered from her confused state and said,""You think he likes Zheng Lun too? You think he doesn''t like me?"
"I heard it from Tiger. I have only seen Zheng Lun once. However, what Tiger said should be true. He is very experienced in reading these things. "
Although knife Lee did not like Zheng Jing fighting for Zhao Anan, he was a man of integrity and would not take advantage of the situation.
He only exined the reason cautiously.
Chapter 747: In-laws
Chapter 747: Inws
Zhao Anan didn''t care who said it, as long as someone had the same thought as her.
She was scared out of her wits about the fact that Zheng Jing liked her. She felt a little scared and guilty towards Zheng Lun. Although she had no feelings for Zheng Jing, she still felt that it was her fault if Zheng Jing really liked her.
Now that knife Lee had said that Zheng Jing did not really like her, she felt much better.
Recently, Zheng Jing had been acting very strange. He always said strange things and did strange things. And this "strange" should be described with another word in other people''s eyes: Ambiguous.
Zhao Anan would never admit that she had an affair with Zheng Jing. She got goosebumps just thinking about it.
Zheng Jing liked that she was more lethal than knife Lee, Wen Kang and the rest of thembined.
But it did not mean that Zhao Anan liked knife Lee.
Other than the fact that she had no good feelings for any man who pursued her!
"Knife Lee, what are you still doing here? You''re not allowed to enter my office as you please!"
Zhao Anan red at knife Lee. She had just formed a connection with him and now his attitude had turned bad again.
"But you haven''t ..."
"But what? No buts, and you won''t listen to me?" Zhao Anan interrupted him. She had seen knife Lee''s ability to keep people upied and she was still scared of his "unyielding" ability.
In knife Lee''s ears, it sounded like a wife trying to control her husband. He grinned and said,""Alright, I''ll listen to you. I''ll go out now."
Zhao Anan was confused by his smile. She didn''t know what was wrong with him that made him smile so happily when she asked him to get out of the house.
Just like Zheng Jing, he was also a masochist.
She couldn''t care less now. As long as knife Lee stayed away from her, she would do anything!
Zhao Anan''s personality had a great advantage. She would not let herself be immersed in a painful matter for too long. She was born with a cheerful personality. She would not keep thinking about things that she could not understand. She would just let it go.
Her memories were filled with happy things, and there were very few painful things.
Although her illness had left a deep impression on her, Zhao Anan would not feel any pain as long as she did not touch it. After all, she had to live and she wanted to live happily.
Soon, Zhao Anan forgot about Zheng Jing and started to deal with her own work. She had a meeting to attend in the afternoon and she had to prepare herself in case those stubborn old men made things difficult for her again.
However, when Zhao Anan got home from work, she was shocked by the guests.
"Oh, you''re back, Anan!" This guest in the house was even more enthusiastic than her own grandmother!
Zhao Anan didn''t feel ttered. Instead, she had a bad feeling. She showed a smile that was uglier than crying."Hello, Auntie PEI. How did you find the time to visit us today?"
It was the mother of Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun, PEI Xinhua.
Zhao Anan was
praying in her heart that PEI Xinhua had nothing to do with Zheng Jing.
"I''ve never been to your house before. Now that we''re going to be inws, of course I have to pay you a visit! You and Jing are too tight-lipped, I only found out today! Otherwise, I would havee here long ago! You''re a good girl, and Auntie likes you very much! I''m not trying to boast, but I''m sure Jing will be a good husband in the future!"
PEI Xinhua''s face was filled with a happy smile. Beside her, olddy Zhao''s face was also full of joy, as if she was going to get married tomorrow.
.
Zhao Anan''s heart suddenly fell into an ice cer and then broke into pieces.
Inw?
The Zhao and Zheng families?
When did this happen?!
Zheng Jing, this bastard, was he crazy?
Who wanted to live with him!
Zhao Anan really wanted to turn around and run away. She wanted to drag Zheng Jing out and beat him up.
Her face was red and white, her lips were trembling with anger, and her body was stiff as if she had been petrified.
After a long while, she finally found her voice.
"Auntie, you have misunderstood. There is nothing going on between Zheng Jing and me. We are just ordinary friends!" Hmph, they weren''t even friends anymore. She was going to beat that shameless man to death!
"Aiya, you''re too shy to say it. It''s okay. After all, I was too anxious from the beginning! He''s already in his 30s, I want to see him get married and start a career soon!"
Zhao Anan said,"aunty, I am as thick-skinned as a wall. How can I be embarrassed about this?" I''m just telling the truth!
However, PEI Xinhua did not give her a chance to exin.
After she said this, she went to hold the olddy''s hand, smiled and said a few polite words, and then left.
The whole process was so fast that Zhao Anan couldn''t even get a word in.
After PEI Xinhua left, olddy Zhao''s face immediately darkened.
"Tell me, what''s going on? Why was she acting like she was Zheng Jing''s wife? It''s not enough that you''ve ruined Mu Qing, and now you''re going to ruin Zheng Jing?"
"I''m innocent, grandma!"
Zhao Anan immediately walked over and held the olddy''s arm, crying out for her innocence.
Most importantly, she was really wronged to death!
She had only just found out about Zheng Jing''s thoughts today! Moreover, she had never thought that he would be so ruthless as to directly send PEI Xinhua to the Zhao family to rify the matter!
This was forcing her to a dead end!
"I don''t have any feelings for Zheng Jing! I don''t know what''s wrong with him today, he suddenly wants to marry me! I''ve already beaten him up today, and I thought he would stop. Who would''ve thought that he''d let him| Mom,e to our house!"
The olddy had been part of Shangguan ning''s n, so she knew that Zheng Jing''s confession to Zhao Anan was just an act.
But she had not expected that Zheng Jing would drag his mother into this. &n
bsp;
And it was obvious that PEI Xinhua had no idea about all the conspiracies. She just thought that Zheng Jing liked Zhao Anan very much and Zhao Anan liked Zheng Jing too, so she wanted the two children to get married soon. After all, they were not young anymore.
The olddy had heard from Zhao Anan that Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing were not biological siblings. They had been together for a long time and developed feelings for each other, but their parents had never agreed to their rtionship.
After all, in the eyes of his parents, one of them was his son and the other was his daughter. If they wanted them to get married, it would be contrary to their principles.| Reason.
Chapter 748-the more you explain, the more confused it gets
Chapter 748-the more you exin, the more confused it gets
The reason why Pei Xinhua was so anxious about Zheng Jing and Zhao Anan was that she wanted to make use of this opportunity to get Zheng Jing married so that the two of them wouldn''t have to continue.
It was a pity that all parents had the same heart. PEI Xinhua no longer had any choice for Zheng Jing''s wife. As long as Zheng Jing liked her and he could dispel his feelings for Zheng Lun, she would try her best to match her.
Of course, she knew Zhao Anan and she had a good impression of her. The Zhao family was a prominent family and she was a perfect match for Zheng Jing.
PEI Xinhua''s arrival gave olddy Zhao a headache.
She could lie to her granddaughter without any pressure, but she still felt sorry for PEI Xinhua.
Zheng Jing seemed to have gone too far.
Olddy Zhao was old and experienced, and she felt that something was wrong.
The Zheng Jing she knew was not a man who did not know his ce. He was a mature man who was very steady and always did things meticulously. Did he let PEI Xinhuae to the Zhao family to make use of Zhao Anan this time?
It was very likely that Zheng Jing wanted to use Zhao Anan to shut PEI Xinhua up temporarily so that he and Zheng Lun would be in a safer position.
The olddy of the Zhao family shook her head. She didn''t mind what Zheng Jing had done.
This was a good thing that killed two birds with one stone. This kind of use could not be considered as use at all.
Zhao Anan was the most important person now. She might have had doubts about Zheng Jing''s rtionship, but now she had to believe it.
"Alright, you don''t have to exin. Zheng Jing has a girlfriend. You said it yourselfst time that you broke her up. Today, Zheng Jing''s mother said that you did it because you were jealous. I don''t know if you were jealous and broke up the couple, but I do know that they''re depending on you. You chased away the Zheng family''s daughter-inw, so you''re going to be someone else''s daughter-inw as coteral!"
Zhao Anan was dumbfounded by the olddy''s nagging.
She had yed an important role in Zhu ruotong''s breakup with Zheng Jing, otherwise they could have gotten married.
However, she did not break them up for her own sake! She was doing it for Zheng Lun!
Why did she not be a living Lei Feng after doing a good deed? instead, she had to be someone''s coteral!
Zhao Anan blurted out."Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun are a couple. I broke up Zheng Jing and his girlfriend because I wanted them to get married!"
"It''s useless for you to tell me about this. You can exin it to Mrs. Zheng yourself! You only know how to stir up trouble all day. I''m already so old, but I still have to clean up your mess every day. You''re really filial!"
The olddy was very unhappy and didn''t give Zhao Anan a good look.
Zhao Anan also felt that she had caused her grandma a lot of trouble, especially the kind of trouble today. It was so embarrassing!
She quickly hugged the olddy''s arm and shook it, trying to make her happy.""Aiya, grandma, don''t worry. I''ll definitely handle this well. I definitely won''t cause you any trouble next time! Mrs. Zheng must have misunderstood. She was tricked by Zheng Jing. I will exin it to herter!"
Even Zhao Anan felt guilty when she heard this.
;
This matter could not be exined clearly!
However, who cared? he had to coax the olddy first.
The olddy''s anger was still very terrifying!
In fact, the olddy loved Zhao Anan the most. She would not really get mad at her granddaughter. Most of the time, she just put on an act to scare her.
It was even more so now, because this was not her fault in the first ce.
.
Soon, she let Zhao Anan go and let her go upstairs to rest.
Back in the bedroom, Zhao Anan suddenly realized that if PEI Xinhua knew about it, it was impossible for Zheng Lun to not know about it.
I''m finished!
She scratched her head in distress and thought that she had to go to the Zheng family tomorrow even if she had to do nothing. She had to exin to mother Zheng and Zheng Lun what had happened between her and Zheng Jing, otherwise she would not be able to sleep well.
The next day, Zhao Anan didn''t go to school for work. She went straight to the Zheng family at 9 am.
This was the good thing about being a principal. If she didn''t go to work, no one could control her. She had a lot of freedom. There were many things in the school that Jin ning had to deal with. He was much busier as an assistant than she was as a principal.
The luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom of the Zhao family drove Zhao Anan to the Zheng family and had been waiting for Zhao Anan toe back.
As soon as Zhao Anan entered the Zheng family with the gift, she was treated with extraordinary enthusiasm by PEI Xinhua.
"Ah, Anan, what are you doing here? So be it, why did you bring a gift? We''ll be a family in the future, so don''t be so polite!"
"Auntie PEI, I ..."
"Come in,e in. Are you here for Jing? You''re already missing him after not seeing him for just one night?"
"No, you ..."
"He took on a case yesterday and left in the middle of the night. He hasn''te back yet. Wait for me at our house. I''ll make you something delicious. You can have lunch at home!"
"No, no, I ..."
"Well, Anan, why are you being so polite with Auntie? You weren''t such an awkward child in the past. Every time you came, you loved to eat my cooking. You don''t like it today?"
It''s not that I''m awkward, but the point is that you weren''t so enthusiastic in the past that it made me feel helpless!
Mrs. Zheng''s attitude was so enthusiastic that it made Zhao Anan''s hair stand on end.
In the past, PEI Xinhua had been very warm to her when she came to the Zheng family. However, her enthusiasm waspletely different from today!
In the past, when she came to find Zheng Lun, PEI Xinhua would smile and say,"Anan,e and y more often." But today, the feeling she gave people was,"Anan, don''t leave. Stay here!"
How did they be a family so quickly? Which part is this!
She was not here for Zheng Jing!
It was better that Zheng Jing was not at home.
She had called Zheng Jing''s police unit to make sure that he was busy with a case before she came here.
PEI Xinhua was too fast and too enthusiastic, so much so that she couldn''t even say aplete sentence!
She was about to
suffocate to death!
Zhao Anan put the gift away and held PEI Xinhua''s hand. She said with a smile,"Auntie, you''re the best! But I am not here for Zheng Jing. I am here for you and Lun!"
PEI Xinhua didn''t believe her."It''s okay. Even if you''re here to see ah Jing, I won''tugh at you. It''s not like Auntie hasn''t been young before. One day apart feels like three years. I can understand this feeling!"
Zhao Anan wanted to cry. How could PEI Xinhua be so sure about this? He had said that he was not here for Zheng Jing. Why did he say that "one day apart feels like three years"?
She would rather not see Zheng Jing at all!
Chapter 749: The more I explain, the more confused I become (2)
Chapter 749: The more I exin, the more confused I be (2)
Zhao Anan had thought that as long as she exined to PEI Xinhua patiently, she would understand that there was nothing going on between Zheng Jing and her.
But now, no matter what she said, PEI Xinhua would have her own exnation. She could not understand at all!
PEI Xinhua pulled Zhao Anan in enthusiastically and sat with her on the sofa in the living room. They started to ask questions.
At first, the questions were like a normal conversation between an elder and a junior, butter on, it was like a mother-inw looking at her daughter-inw!
"Anan, how old are you this year?"
"Auntie, I''m 28 years old."
"Oh, that''s good. If you get married this year, you can have children at 29 next year. There''s no hurry, as long as you can have children before 30! When this woman is in her 30s, her physical fitness will decline, and it will be difficult for her to have children! Don''t worry, Auntie won''t rush you. Just take it slow. "
Oh my God!
What the hell is this!
This was called "not in a hurry"?
Fortunately, nothing had happened between her and Zheng Jing. If she were to marry Zheng Jing, she would have to have children immediately and she would not be able to do anything else.
Well, it wasmon for parents nowadays to look forward to having their own grandchildren. Zheng Jing was the only child of the Zheng family and he must have the responsibility to carry on the family line.
Zhao Anan was worried for Zheng Lun.
It was Zheng Lun who was in charge of the pregnancy and had nothing to do with Zhao Anan.
"Auntie, Zheng Jing and I are not what you think. We are just friends, Good Brothers! He doesn''t like me, don''t listen to his nonsense!"
Zhao Anan''s forehead was full of sweat, but she was still trying to exin to PEI Xinhua. She almost told him about her illness, but she was afraid that PEI Xinhua would not believe her, so she had to hold back for the time being.
However, PEI Xinhua was not happy. She said with a cold face,""Anan, do you think that the Zheng family is too poor and that Jing is a Criminal Police officer and is not good enough for you?"
Oh my God, this crime is a bit heavy!
Zhao Anan shook her head immediately."No, no. Auntie, you misunderstood me. I did not mean that." Zheng Jing is a Criminal Police officer, and that is something to be proud of!"
PEI Xinhua was happy again. She took Zhao Anan''s hand and said affectionately,"I know, I know. Anan, you''re a good girl. I was just provoking you on purpose. How can Auntie not know what kind of person you are?"
Zhao Anan had visited Zheng Jing many times because of Zheng Lun. PEI Xinhua had a good impression of her, because Zheng Lun did not have many friends. She would not have invited anyone to her house if she did not treat her well.
Although Zhao Anan was a little reckless, she was open and generous. If she married Zheng Jing in the future, she would get along well with Zheng Lun.
As for Zhao Anan''s family background and job, PEI Xinhua didn''t care about them. Even if Z
hao Anan''s family and job were ordinary, she would ept them.
She only wanted a good daughter-inw.
Zhao Anan could not sit still at this moment. She couldn''t continue the conversation with PEI Xinhua. What if she said something inappropriate and made her angry?
When she came to the Zheng family, PEI Xinhua had been very nice to her and never cared about her careless character. But now, they were in an awkward rtionship, which made Zhao Anan feel very guilty to PEI Xinhua.
.
PEI Xinhua was now treating herself as her established daughter-inw, and the kind of love in her actions was not fake.
"Well ... Auntie, I would like to know what Zheng Jing told you about our rtionship."
Zhao Anan could not help but ask.
She was going to be killed by Zheng Jing!
Speaking of this, PEI Xinhua was very happy. She peeled an Apple for Zhao Anan and said with a smile,"Oh, he came back yesterday and told me that you like him very much and even called him ''brother Jingjing'' for the first time. You even rejected Mu Qing''s proposal for him!"
"What?"
Zhao Anan almost choked on her own saliva.
This Zheng Jing was so shameless!
Wasn''t calling him "brother Jingjing" acting? Wasn''t that to make knife Lee give up?
Zheng Jing must have known why she had rejected Mu Qing''s proposal. How could she have done it for Zheng Jing?
Zhao Anan felt that her lungs were about to explode.
She had thought that Zheng Jing was a good man.
It turned out that he was the biggest bastard!
If he really said that to PEI Xinhua, then it was no wonder that PEI Xinhua would treat her as her daughter-inw so enthusiastically!
What should she do? PEI Xinhua was so happy, but Zheng Lun was so sad! Last time, Zheng Lun had already been so sad when nothing had happened between Zheng Jing and Zhu ruotong. Now that she heard that she was going to marry Zheng Jing, her heart was broken.
Zhao Anan had been so eager to exin to Zheng Lun when she first arrived, but now she didn''t even dare to go upstairs.
She felt that she was too embarrassed to face Zheng Lun.
But she had to go even if she didn''t dare to. She had to exin to Zheng Lun. If she refused to see Zheng Lun, it would only make things worse.
One of them was Zheng Lun''s brother and the other was her best friend. But her best friend had taken her brother away and wanted to be her sister-inw. Zheng Lun couldn''t stand it, and anyone would break down.
There were too many cases of being poached by one''s best friend.
But Zhao Anan would never do such a thing even if she was beaten to death!
"Well ... Aunty, please take a rest first. I will go upstairs to see Lun. Is she ... Feeling ufortable?"
Zhao Anan was going to ask Zheng Lun if she was crying, but it was not appropriate. It seemed as if she was waiting for her to cry.
PEI Xinhua sighed and shook her head,""
Maybe she''s not feeling well. She didn''t even eat breakfast this morning. Go up and see her! As her mother, it''s hard for me to persuade her now. There are some things that she needs to get used to. "
She was implying something, but her words were very vague, because she really did not want to say that her son and daughter had an improper rtionship.
She had always believed that their rtionship was only that of siblings. Even if they were closer, it was because they had a good rtionship.
As a mother, she loved her child to the core and was always thinking for them. She was very afraid that they would take the wrong path and ruin their lives!
Chapter 750: What a huge misunderstanding!
Chapter 750: What a huge misunderstanding!
Zhao Anan knocked on the door of Zheng Lun''s room carefully and shouted,"Lun, it''s Anan. I''m here to y with you. Can I go in?"
She waited outside for a while, but there was no sound.
Zhao Anan thought that Zheng Lun must be angry, so she knocked on the door again. When Zheng Lun didn''t respond, she opened the door and walked in.
As soon as she got in, she saw Zheng Lun lying on the bed with her face buried between the quilt and the pillow. She could only see her long ck hair.
Zhao Anan walked over quietly and sat down by Zheng Lun''s bed."Lun, what''s wrong? Get up and let''s have a chat!"
Zheng Lun''s voice came out from under the nket, "I''m not feeling well today, you can leave! I''m going to sleep!"
Her voice was still gentle, but Zhao Anan knew her very well. She could tell that she was upset and sad.
Zhao Anan got anxious and lifted Zheng Lun''s nket."Lun, listen to my exnation. It is not what you think. You have really misunderstood me! I have nothing to do with Zheng Jing!"
Hearing her words, Zheng Lun, who had been quite calm, suddenly buried herself in the nket and started to cry in a low voice.
She was crying so hard that Zhao Anan was flustered.
She couldn''t bear to see girls cry. She rarely shed tears, but she couldn''t stand it when she saw other people cry.
"Hey, Lun, don''t cry, don''t cry! I''ve already said that this is a misunderstanding, you must believe me! I don''t like Zheng Jing at all. He is yours and no one can take him away from you. Don''t worry!"
"Get out of the nket first, let''s have a good talk. Don''t bore yourself to death! If there''s anything you don''t understand, you can ask me and I''ll tell you everything, okay?"
Zhao Anan tried to lift up the nket and saw Zheng Lun''s red and swollen eyes. She looked like an abandoned kitten and it made her feel bad for her.
Zheng Lun had a gentle personality. She was a delicate beauty who could easily arouse others ''desire to protect her. Now that she was crying, she looked even more pitiful.
Zheng Lun curled herself up and asked in tears,"Anan, are you going to marry my brother?"
Hearing this, Zhao Anan broke out in a cold sweat and denied it immediately. "There''s no such thing! This is impossible, you have to believe me!"
Unexpectedly, Zheng Lun, who had always been gentle and kind, didn''t listen to Zhao Anan''s exnation at all. She burst into tears and said with great sadness,"Anan, you''re the person I trust the most. You''re my best friend, but you know that I have feelings for my brother. How could you do this? I misjudged you! Leave, I don''t want to see you again! You''re the best liar in the world!"
This was the most heartless thing that Zheng Lun had ever said in her life!
She felt guilty as she cried. She didn''t
feel good about how Zhao Anan was treated and she wasn''t pretending to cry.
Zhao Anan was both anxious and angry. She hated Zheng Jing to death.
She had been regarded as a liar by Zheng Lun. She was breaking up with her!
Zhao Anan hugged Zheng Lun helplessly. She was sweating but still made a promise to Zheng Lun.
"No, no, no, Lun, I am not lying to you. I have been looking after Zheng Jing for you. I swear to the heavens that I have nothing to do with him. The person he likes is not me, but you! Don''t be angry with me. When Zheng Jinges back, I will confront him and I will give you an exnation. "
"You don''t have to lie to me. I know everything. You will get married soon!" Zheng Lun was still crying. Mu Qing''s proposal shocked the entire A city. I was happy for you at first, but I was so stupid. You only agreed to Mu Qing on the surface, but you never nned to marry him. You are a two-timer. You fell in love with Mu Qing and then you messed with my brother! Now that you have rejected Mu Qing''s proposal, you just want to marry my brother. Don''t think that I''m stupid. I see it clearly. Zhao Anan, you are not a good person! You''re a Big Bad guy!"
Zhao Anan felt that she had been fooled by Zheng Lun. It took her quite a while toe back to her senses and said,"I didn''t reject Mu Qing''s proposal for Zheng Jing''s sake. When did I ever want to marry your brother? He''s yours, so how could I have any ideas about him? No, no, no, even if he''s not yours, I''ll never have any ideas about him! Don''t you know that the person I like has always been Mu Qing?"
Zheng Lun raised her head and looked at Zhao Anan with innocent and pitiful eyes."Are you still lying to me? Are you only going to tell me the truth after you''ve married my brother and be my sister-inw? If you like Mu Qing, why won''t you marry him? This is just an excuse! You just want to Take My Brother Away, you''re too scheming! I don''t want to be friends with you anymore. Otherwise, I won''t even know when you''ll sell me out!"
Indeed, Like Mother, Like Daughter!
Even if Zheng Lun was not PEI Xinhua''s biological daughter, she was raised by PEI Xinhua. They were exactly the same in some aspects!
Both of them were the same. They only believed in what they had already decided on and did not listen to her exnation at all.
It was the thousandth time that Zhao Anan had wanted to kill Zheng Jing today.
She only had two good friends in her life, one was Shangguan ning and the other was Zheng Lun. She didn''t want to create any estrangement between her and Zheng Lun because of this, because it wasn''t worth it.
Zhao Anan went to wipe Zheng Lun''s tears andforted her in a low voice,"Why would I take your brother away from you? Mu Qing has always been the one I like. You know that. The reason why I didn''t marry him was because I had cancer before, and there was a high chance of it happening again. I was afraid that I would die within these two ye
ars, so I didn''t marry. "
In order to gain Zheng Lun''s trust, Zhao Anan told her about her illness.
To his surprise, Zheng Lun cried and said,"You don''t have to make up lies to deceive me anymore. One lie needs ten lies to exin and cover it up. I don''t believe you anymore! You can leave, it''s my fault for not recognizing you!"
Zhao Anan was stunned.
Anything she said now would be wrong! Zheng Lun wouldn''t believe it no matter what he said. She was done for!
No, PEI Xinhua and Zheng Lun didn''t believe her at all. They only believed what Zheng Jing said. She had to find that bastard!
Chapter 751: Irrefutable evidence
Chapter 751: Irrefutable evidence
Zheng Lun knew that Zhao Anan had been diagnosed with cancer, but it was Zheng Jing who had told her about it.
So Zhao Anan didn''t know that Zheng Lun had already known about her condition.
Zhao Anan left the Zheng family in a hurry and went to the criminal Police unit to find Zheng Jing, regardless of PEI Xinhua''s persuasion.
However, Zheng Jing was not in the police unit. He was still at the scene of the murder and had note back.
Zhao Anan wanted to go to the scene of the murder to find the person, but the criminal Police refused to tell her where the scene was, because this kind of criminal case had to be kept strictly confidential. They didn''t know Zhao Anan''s identity and couldn''t tell her the location.
Zhao Anan had been waiting for him in the criminal Police unit. She did not see Zheng Jing until five in the afternoon.
The moment she saw Zheng Jing, Zhao Anan finally found an outlet to vent her anger that she had been suppressing for the whole day and night. She walked to Zheng Jing angrily and, under everyone''s surprised eyes, punched Zheng Jing''s nose.
Luckily, Zheng Jing had heard from his colleagues that Zhao Anan had been waiting for him here. He had been on guard against her and avoided her fist. Otherwise, he would have gone to the stic surgery hospital for a nose job instead of getting his nose done today.
This was the criminal Police unit and everyone here was a Criminal Police officer. They were all Zheng Jing''s good friends. How could Zheng Jing allow Zhao Anan to mess around here?
Without saying anything, he lifted Zhao Anan up and strode out.
Zhao Anan''s hand was held tightly by Zheng Jing. She could not hit anyone, but her mouth was not gagged, so she could curse.
Then, her angry words shocked all the police officers. They all looked at Zheng Jing''s back as if they were watching a good show.
"Zheng Jing, you bastard! When did I say I wanted to marry you? You''re shameless! Hurry up and exin this to your mother. She actually asked me to give birth to a child today. What did you tell your mother?"
"Has your head been kicked by a donkey? You know that I don''t like you, but you still told your mother that I rejected Mu Qing''s proposal for you. Others might not know why I rejected you, but you do!"
"Do you know that Zheng Lun hates me to death now? She said I was a liar, she said I wasn''t a good person, and she wanted to break off our friendship! It''s all your fault. If you don''te with me to your house and exin this to me, I''ll kill you!"
Zhao Anan''s words made all the policemen misunderstand. They all thought that it was Zheng Jing who had pursued Zhao Anan, but Zhao Anan had refused, and that was why the situation had turned out this way.
Zheng Jing carried Zhao Anan outside and stuffed her into his car.
As soon as Zheng Jing got in the car, Zhao Anan threw herself at him again and wanted to beat him up.
The reason why Zhao Anan could hit Zheng Jing was because Zheng Jing was giving in to her. They were not on the same level at all.
Now that Zheng Jing was serious, he grabbed Zhao Anan''s hand and she could not move.
"Anan, I work in the criminal Police unit. Can you stop making a scene? otherwise, I will beughed at by them. I''m the captain, their superior. You should at least consider my face, right?"
Zhao Anan got angry immediately and sneered,"Hmph, you still know how to save face? You don''t even have a face! Besides, when have you ever cared about my face? When I get home, I will talk nonsense to your mom and Lun and make them misunderstand me! You''re the most shameless one!"
"How am I talking nonsense? Every word I said was the truth. You admitted that you like me! If you don''t believe me, I have a recording as evidence!"
.
As Zheng Jing said this, he let go of Zhao Anan''s arm and used his other hand to take out a small recording pen. Soon, the car was filled with their conversation from the day before.
Knife Lee said,"Mu Qing is so nice to you and his proposal is Grand enough. Why don''t you agree?" Are you sure that you didn''t reject Mu Qing because you liked me?"
"No, I don''t like you. I like officer Zheng!" Zhao Anan said.
Zhao Anan said,"brother Jingjing, you are the best to me!" I like you the most!"
Zhao Anan''s face turned green after she heard the recording.
These were the words she had said to Zheng Jing when she had rejected knife Lee yesterday.
She finally understood why Pei Xinhua and Zheng Lun didn''t believe what she had said. Zheng Jing had such strong evidence!
She gritted her teeth and red at Zheng Jing. "You''re really despicable! You actually recorded my conversation! Hurry up and bring it over, I want to destroy it!"
Zheng Jing put the recorder into his pocket and said calmly,"I carry a voice recorder with me all year round. It''s a must-have item for many Criminal Police officers. Even the voice recording is automatic. I didn''t mean to record you."
As he said this, he gave Zhao Anan a gentle smile. It was a very warm smile, which was very different from Zheng Jing''s usual serious and righteous face. It gave Zhao Anan goosebumps.
"Zheng, you''re not allowed tough like that! It was too strange! The way you''re smiling makes me feel like you''re talking to someone else! Have you been possessed by a little devil?"
Zheng Jing was speechless. Had Zhao Anan read too many ghost novels?
A teasing look shed in his eyes, and then he looked at Zhao Anan with even more affection than before. He said in a low voice,"Anan, I know that you''ve always liked me. I like you too. Let''s get married!"
Zhao Anan shivered.
What had been going on for the past two days? Why did she feel like the world had changed overnight?
Had she gone crazy, or had everyone else gone crazy?
Why didn''t they believe her? They only believed in what they believed!
Zhao Anan felt as if she had fallen into a dream that she could not wake up from. In this dream, she had lost control of herself and was being manipted.
> The feeling was so horrible that Zhao Anan''s hair stood on end.
Her lips trembled slightly, her teeth chattered, and she stuttered,""Y-y-you ... I-I-I ... Don''t like you! Who ... Who the hell would marry you! You should go to a mental hospital to check if you''re crazy!"
Zhao Anan really wanted to go to the hospital to see if she had gone crazy.
Why didn''t anyone believe her words? was there a problem with what she said or was there a problem with the others?
"Anan, don''t be so stubborn. It''s not a big deal to like me. Don''t worry about Mu Qing, I will exin to him myself. I think he will give us his blessings. "
Chapter 752-inappropriate
Chapter 752-inappropriate
"You are not allowed to go!" Zhao Anan screamed.
What if Mu Qing was also cheated by Zheng Jing? What if even Mu Qing thought that she had fallen in love with Zheng Jing and wanted to marry him?
She didn''t want Mu Qing to misunderstand her.
"Oh, alright then. Since you don''t want me to go, then I won''t go. I''ll listen to you! Then let''s go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get our marriage certificate now!"
"What did you say?"
Zhao Anan almost bit her tongue.
Register their marriage?
She and Zheng Jing?
Blue veins popped out on Zhao Anan''s forehead and cold sweat poured down her face. She wanted to beat Zheng Jing up, but her hands were held tightly by him and she couldn''t get them out.
She lifted her foot and kicked Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing was much more flexible than her. He caught Zhao Anan''s legs with his legs.
Hence, the two of them became in that extremely ambiguous position.
At a nce, their fingers were intertwined, and their legs were intertwined. They were so intimate that it was hard to tell them apart!
Some police officers who passed by Zheng Jing''s car saw the two of them and started to make a fuss.
"Captain, if you want to dote on your wife, go home and dote on her. I''m afraid this car can''t withstand such a big movement!"
"Sister-inw, we didn''t see anything. Please continue!"
"Sister-inw, when can we attend your wedding? I''ve been preparing this red packet for years, just waiting for this day!"
Zhao Anan almost vomited blood when she was called "sister-inw."
"Who''s the sister-inw? I''m not!"She immediately shouted. Don''t shout! I have nothing to do with this Zheng guy!"
She was so close to Zheng Jing that no one would believe her.
The others only thought that she was just arguing with Zheng Jing. None of them took it seriously. They allughed and left while whispering to each other.
Zhao Anan was so angry that she wanted to bite Zheng Jing to death.
"What''s the point of bullying a girl like me? let go of me! Let''s talk this out!"
If she continued to be in such an ambiguous position, all the criminal Police officers in A city would think that she had an ambiguous rtionship with Zheng Jing. How was she going to live in the future!
"I wanted to talk to you nicely, but you insisted on touching me. I can''t die in your hands, so I had to touch you."
Zheng Jing was calm and had no intention to hide anything from his brothers.
It was good that they had misunderstood his rtionship with Zhao Anan, so that Zheng Lun would not be suspected.
He had not found the perfect solution yet. Before that, she could only be his sister and not his woman. Otherwise, she would be pushed into the eye of the storm.
Zheng Jing was happy to kill two birds with one stone.
Zhao Anan struggled with all her might and finally regained her freedom after she bit Zheng Jing so hard that there were many teeth marks on his body.
.
Zheng Jing looked at the teeth marks on his arm andughed."I think when I g
et home and my mom and sister see these teeth marks, they''ll know that we''ve taken another step forward in our rtionship!"
"If you dare to show it to them and tell them what happened today, I''ll ... I''ll ask knife Lee to fight you to the death!"
Zhao Anan had nothing to threaten Zheng Jing with now.
He actually had no ws at all, and she didn''t know where to attack him from!
Luckily, Zhao Anan could use knife Lee temporarily.
But Zheng Jing was not worried at all. He looked into Zhao Anan''s eyes and said slowly,"Why would knife Lee want to help you? Just because he likes you? Don''t tell me you''re not embarrassed to use him like this and not give him any benefits? Or are you prepared to devote your life to him in exchange for his help in dealing with me?"
Zhao Anan was so angry that she picked up a bottle of water from the car, twisted the cap open and poured it on Zheng Jing."Go home and exin to your mom and Lun that there is nothing going on between us!"
Zheng Jing didn''t even try to Dodge and was sshed by Zhao Anan''s water. He looked at her with a faint smile and said,"With your attitude, why should I go home and exin to them? Besides, it''s useless to exin this matter. My mother has already set her mind on you, and my sister ... Has also set her mind on you being with me. Of course, I have also set my mind on you. Sit tight, I''ll take you to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get your marriage certificate now!"
Zhao Anan shouted angrily,"the Civil Affairs Bureau is closed!" Get your a ******* certificate!"
Zheng Jing raised his wrist, checked the time and nodded. "That''s true, then tomorrow is fine! Wait for me at home tomorrow. I''ll pick you up and we''ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau together. "
Zhao Anan waspletely devastated.
"Zheng Jing, are you done? I''ve already said that I don''t like you and I won''t marry you. Why are you still talking to yourself?"
Zheng Jing didn''t say anything. He just turned on the engine and drove directly to the Zheng family.
After a while, Zhao Anan realized that something was wrong. She shouted in a hurry,"Where are you going? I want to go home!"
"Going to my house is the same as going home! Anyway, you''ll be a part of the Zheng family after we get our marriage certificate tomorrow. You can stay with me tonight!"
Oh my God, what the hell is going on!
It had only been a day and a night, how did the scene suddenly be like this! Why was there suddenly no normal person in the Zheng family?
"I''m not going, I''m not going, I want to go back to my own home! Zheng, I don''t care what tricks you''re ying now. You''re scaring me. Stop the car, I want to get out! I don''t want to stay with a lunatic like you!"
Zheng Jing ignored her and kept driving.
Zhao Anan''s voice was almost hoarse from all the shouting, but she still followed Zheng Jing to the Zheng family.
She stayed in the car and refused to get out. Zheng Jing carried her into the house despite her struggling.
Dinner was almost ready at home. Except for Zheng Jing, all the Zheng family members were sitting at the table.
As soon as Zhao Anan came in, she had an impulse to die.
The family of four was having dinner together. What business did an outsider like her h
ave?
What was more, she had been carried in by Zheng Jing.
If she had known earlier, she would have walked in by herself! In that case, at least father Zheng and mother Zheng wouldn''t look at her with such a teasing look, and Zheng Lun wouldn''t have tears in her eyes immediately.
Today was Zhao Anan''s unlucky day.
What he did was wrong, and what he did was wrong!
She whispered to Zheng Jing,"put me down!" It''s so embarrassing!"
Zheng Jing did not let go of her."I will put you down. You are not allowed to run out. Otherwise, I will carry you like this."
Chapter 753-falling into a Wolf Den
Chapter 753-falling into a Wolf Den
Zhao Anan suppressed her anger and said in humiliation,"Alright, alright, alright, I won''t run."
Zheng Jing put her down.
However, when Zhao Anan had just stood up, Zheng Lun put down the chopsticks, got up and said in a low voice,"I''m not feeling well. I won''t have dinner." Then she walked past Zhao Anan quickly and went back to her bedroom.
Zhao Anan didn''t care about anything else and immediately followed Zheng Lun to the bedroom.
As soon as she got in, she heard Zheng Lun''s suppressed sobs, which made her heart ache.
"Lun, don''t cry, don''t cry!"
Zhao Anan hurried to wipe her tears and exined to Zheng Lun helplessly,"I didn''t want toe back, but Zheng Jing forced me to. I really don''t have any intention of snatching your brother away, I just want him to exin everything clearly in front of the two of us. "
Zheng Lun was crying her heart out."You and my brother had already done that and you are still lying to me. Am I that stupid in your eyes?"
She took a coffee-colored towel and kept wiping her tears, but the more she wiped, the more tears she shed. In the end, she couldn''t control them at all.
Zheng Lun felt a bit regretful that she had poured so much chili water on the towel. Now, her eyes were hurting.
But this was the only way to fool Zhao Anan, so she decided to give it her all. It would only take a day or two, and if she could help Zhao Anan, it would be worth it.
Zheng Lun was actually not good at lying. She didn''t know how to lie and would stutter easily.
But this time, she didn''t need to do too much. She just needed to keep crying.
Zhao Anan was so anxious that she kept exining to Zheng Lun the truth.
But her rtionship with Zheng Jing was already in a mess.
She had never treated Zheng Jing as a man. She felt that they were like good Brothers and they were not too distant from each other. They would talk casually and it was normal for them to hang out.
Now, it seemed that all the informality in the past was actually a problem!
The biggest problem was that it was Zhao Anan who had broken up Zhu ruotong and Zheng Jing.
Zhao Anan had been exining to Zheng Lun for the whole night, but it didn''t work at all. Instead, Zheng Lun cried so much that her eyes were swollen.
Zhao Anan left Zheng Lun''s room helplessly. Then she was dragged to the living room by mother Zheng, who made her some new dishes and asked her to eat.
However, Zhao Anan had to suffer from the mental pressure when she was eating.
"Anan, I heard from Jing that you went to the criminal Police unit to look for him? Silly child, he''lle home eventually. You can just wait for him at home. It''s only been a while, and you can''t wait anymore?"
"Oh, right, I just called your grandma. You''ll be staying here tonight! Jing''s room is upstairs, and his bed is big. You two can sleep on it!"
"From now on, we will be a family. I will love you like my own daughter. Anan, you have to take care of Jing too. I saw so many deep teeth marks on his arm. You can''t bite him even if you like him!"
"Also, you''re going to get your marriage certificate to
morrow, right? Tomorrow is a good day. Wake up early and go register!"
Looking at the table full of delicious food, Zhao Anan couldn''t take a single bite.
Did she fall into a Wolf''s Den?
She must be crazy to get married to Zheng Jing!
No, no, she couldn''t stay at the Zheng family any longer. If this continued, she would be driven crazy in a few hours!
It was too terrifying!
Zhao Anan ran away from the Zheng family in the middle of the meal.
PEI Xinhua could not stop her at all and could only watch her leave.
Zheng Jing stood in his bedroom on the second floor andughed as he watched Zhao Anan leave the Zheng family. She stopped a taxi and ran away.
He might have made Zhao Anan crazy!
Zheng Jing thought for a while, pushed open the door, walked out of his bedroom and sneaked into Zheng Lun''s bedroom.
Zheng Lun was also standing by the window, watching Zhao Anan leave.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Zheng Lun couldn''t help but turn around.
"Brother, why are you here? If mom sees you ..."
She did not continue.
Recently, PEI Xinhua had been keeping a close eye on them, especially at night. She forbade Zheng Jing froming into Zheng Lun''s room again.
If he was found out, Zheng Jing would be scolded and forced to get married.
Luckily, Zhao Anan''s affair had attracted PEI Xinhua''s attention. She had thought that Zhao Anan and Zheng Jing would be together, so she had stopped forcing Zheng Jing to go on blind dates.
Zheng Jing was already thirty-three years old this year, and he was indeed at the age to get married. PEI Xinhua was not to be med for being so anxious.
In addition to the dangerous rtionship between him and Zheng Lun, it was already a light punishment for PEI Xinhua to force Zheng Jing to go on a blind date.
Seeing Zheng Lun''s red and swollen eyes, Zheng Jing felt sorry for her. He said with a smile,"Lun, aren''t you putting too much effort into your acting? Why did you cry so much that your eyes are swollen?"
"I used too much of the chili water you gave me and I couldn''t stop my tears!" Zheng Lun felt a little embarrassed.
Zheng Jing stroked her long hair and said softly,"Remember to put some ice on it before you go to bed. Otherwise, it will still be swollen when you wake up tomorrow."
Zheng Lun nodded obediently and said with hesitation,"Brother, will we really seed?"
Zheng Jing smiled,"I had thought it would be a bit difficult at first, but judging from Zhao Anan''s mood today, I think it will be a sess." She walked into a dead end and couldn''t get out, so we could only give her a push. We should be able to attend her and Mu Qing''s wedding in a few days. "
Zheng Lun got happy after hearing what he said."I think Anan and doctor mu are perfect for each other. They will be happy together!"
Zheng Jing held Zheng Lun in his arms and said in a low but firm voice,"Qiqi, I will make you happy too. Believe me!"
Zheng Lun would be very happy every time Zheng Jing
called her Qiqi.
She didn''t like the name ''Qiqi'' before because it represented her dark and painful past, cold and hunger.
But now, she liked it when Zheng Jing called her that.
Only when she was Qiqi and not Zheng Lun could she prove that she was not Zheng Jing''s sister and that they were not rted by blood. It was not wrong to fall in love with each other.
She leaned into Zheng Jing''s arms and felt his strong heartbeat. She felt so happy and warm.
She didn''t want to make things difficult for Zheng Jing, so she said softly,"Brother, I think we''re good enough. Don''t take the risk."
Chapter 754: She committed suicide?
Chapter 754: Shemitted suicide?
Zheng Jing understood what Zheng Lun meant. She didn''t want him to talk to his parents because of their rtionship. She didn''t want him to fall out with his family because of her.
He sighed softly and consoled her,""It''s fine. Don''t worry, I won''t take any risks. I have other ways, but this method might make mom and dad sad, so I''ve been hesitating. "
"What method?" Zheng Lun asked in confusion. Does big brother have a way?"
How could there be a way to deal with this?
Now everyone knew that she was a child of the Zheng family and Zheng Jing''s sister.
This was a fact that could not be changed.
"I haven''t thought about it yet. I''ll tell you when I''ve thought about it. This method might hurt you, so it''s best not to use it. "
Zheng Jing didn''t tell Zheng Lun what the method was, because he was really worried.
In any case, their current situation had not reached the worst point, so that method was not needed for the time being.
The next day, Zhao Anan heard a familiar voice when she got up.
"Grandma, Hello! I''m here today to take Anan to get our marriage certificate. She agreed yesterday. Don''t worry, I''ll take good care of her!"
"Haha, good, good, good. That''s good ..."
Zhao Anan was shocked.
He rolled and crawled out of bed. Without even wearing his slippers, he ran straight to the living room downstairs at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.
"Not good!"
"You shameless Zheng!" She roared. When did I agree to marry you?! Get out! The Zhao family doesn''t wee you!"
Before Zheng Jing could say anything, the olddy of the Zhao family said unhappily,"Anan, what are you saying? Did I teach you in vain? Apologize to Zheng Jing now!"
Zhao Anan had no ce to vent her anger, so how could she apologize to Zheng Jing? she ignored the olddy and pushed Zheng Jing away.
But Zheng Jing picked her up and walked out.
Zhao Anan struggled on his shoulder and hit Zheng Jing with her fists."You bastard, put me down! This is kidnapping! It''s illegal! Grandma, help me. I don''t want to marry him. I don''t like him. His brain has been flooded with water for the past two days! Pleasee and save me!"
The olddy stood there and said with a smile,""Anan, listen to me. Go and get your marriage certificate. I have already given your household register to Zheng Jing."
Zhao Anan almost passed out!
"Grandma, I''m really not your biological granddaughter!" She cried. How could you sell me to such a man who''s worse than a beast! I want to find my mom! Mom,e and save your daughter. Don''t care about those broken jewelry. Your daughter has been sold by your mom! She''s not your biological mother! She picked you up from the trash!"
Zheng Jing, who was carrying Zhao Anan, almost fell down when he heard what she said.
She really dared to say anything!
The olddy of the Zhao family was used to Zhao Anan''s impertinence, so she was not angry at all. She even told Zheng Jing, "I''ll leave Anan in your care from now on. She has a bad temper, so plea
se forgive her. I''ll go to the Zheng family to visit your parents tomorrow. It''s more important to get the marriage certificate now!"
.
No matter how much Zhao Anan struggled, she was eventually pushed into the car by Zheng Jing and they drove towards the Civil Affairs Bureau.
"Zheng Jing, have you been seeing ghosts recently? That''s why your interests, personality, and even the way you do things have changed! If I go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and refuse to sign or take photos with you, what can you do to me? Didn''t you think of all these things in advance? This isn''t your style at all!"
Zhao Anan felt very uneasy. She was very afraid that Zheng Jing would force her to get the marriage certificate with him. If that happened, she would be too embarrassed to face Zheng Lun.
If Zheng Lun knew that they had already gotten their marriage certificate, she might really kill herself out of anger!
Even if she didn''tmit suicide, she would still die if she refused to eat and only cared about crying and being sad!
In Zhao Anan''s knowledge, crying could kill people.
She would rather die than get married to Zheng Jing!
"Anan, don''t worry. I''m a Criminal Police officer. It''s easy to get a marriage certificate. I have a lot of friends at the Civil Affairs Bureau! Last time, yang Muyan could get a marriage certificate with Mu Qing without him. Now that I have you, I can get one. You''re too naive!"
Zhao Anan was left speechless.
That''s right, yang Muyan had gotten her marriage certificatest time!
Mu Qing had never been a part of it!
Was she really going to get a marriage certificate with Zheng Jing?
Don ''t! She could only get married to Mu Qing, not Zheng Jing.
Zhao Anan moved around in the car as if she was sitting on pins and needles, trying to think of a solution.
The only thing she could think of now was to call Jing Yichen. There was almost nothing in the world that Jing Yichen couldn''t do. But would he really care about her marriage with Zheng Jing?
He wouldn''t help Zheng Jing so that they could get married sessfully, would he?
Should he go to Shangguan ning? Her words were more effective than Jing Yichen ''s. Jing Yichen would listen to her.
Zhao Anan thought about it carefully and decided that she was the most reliable person!
Poor Zhao Anan! She didn''t know that Shangguan ning was the most unreliable one among all of them!
Shangguan ning looked at the name "Zhao Anan" on the screen and smiled. Anan, I''ve been waiting for your call!
She picked up the phone and said in an anxious and flustered tone,""Anan,e quickly! Lun was in the hospital and she was very sick! Where was Zheng Jing? Why didn''t he answer my calls? Is he with you?"
Zhao Anan''s voice changed when she heard that. "What''s wrong? what happened to Lun? Ning, did shemit suicide?"
Shangguan ning put her hand on her forehead helplessly. Zhao Anan''s imagination was too strong!
She had already said that Zheng Lun was sick. Why did she think that Zheng Lun hadmitted suicide?
That''s good,
it''ll be better if she misunderstands it.
Shangguan ning didn''t exin further, but kept urging,"Quicklye to the hospital to see her! Mu Qing was trying to save her! Are you really with Zheng Jing? Did Zheng Lun get hospitalized because of you two? Are you really in a rtionship with Zheng Jing?"
Zhao Anan got very anxious. I''m not familiar with that Zheng guy! I am going to the hospital now. Zheng Jing is with me. Let''s go together! If there is any news from Lun, call me!"
She hung up the phone and said to Zheng Jing,"You bastard, turn around and go to family MU''s Hospital! Your sistermitted suicide because of you and was hospitalized!"
Chapter 755: If you like Mu Qing, marry him
Chapter 755: If you like Mu Qing, marry him
Zheng Jing''s hair stood on end at Zhao Anan''s words. He wanted to argue with her that Zheng Lun had notmitted suicide. She had just imed that she had passed out due to dehydration and fever.
Zhao Anan was a brainless girl. It was so mean to say that Zheng Lun hadmitted suicide!
But he had to y along with Zhao Anan and put on a pained expression."What did you just say? This was impossible! How could Lunmit suicide? Let''s go to the hospital immediately. She''s my only sister! She must be fine!"
Zhao Anan burst into tears and scolded him. "It''s all your fault. If you didn''t insist on marrying me, she wouldn''t havemitted suicide! You''re crazy, you bastard, your brain is full of water!"
"It''s not my fault that I like you! Lun is my sister. How can I like her?"
Zheng Jing refused to admit it and kept saying that the person he liked was Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan wanted to strangle him to death, but Zheng Lun''s incident had made her lose the will to fight.
If anything happened to Zheng Lun, she would be the biggest sinner!
How could Zheng Lunmit suicide? No matter how sad she was, she shouldn''t treat herself like this!
She didn''t like Zheng Jing at all. How could she exin this to Zheng Lun so that she would believe her?
Zhao Anan pulled a long face and said to Zheng Jing,"When you go to the hospital, tell Zheng Lun that you like her, not me, do you hear me? And you''re not allowed to say you''ll marry me, just her! This way, she won''t be sad and won''tmit suicide again!"
Zheng Jing would never agree to it. He and Zheng Lun had put on this show to drive Zhao Anan into a corner.
"No! I can''t lie to her about this. I can lie to her for a while, but not forever! She''s my sister, how can I marry her? If my parents find out, they''ll definitely beat me to death!"
"If you don''t agree, I''ll beat you to death right now, do you believe me?"
"Then you can kill me. It is good to die in your hands. I can go to the underground with Lun and be a ghost brother and sister. Then we cane to you for revenge!"
Zhao Anan was so angry that she almost spat out blood. She pinched Zheng Jing hard and said,"Are you done or not! What do you like about me? I''ll change! I''m full of shorings and I''m a violent and crazy woman. How can I be better than Zheng Lun? Are you blind?"
"I just think you''re good. I''ve thought of you since a long time ago! But Mu Qing and I are good friends. You used to be his woman and I couldn''t fight with him. Now that you are not, why can''t I pursue my true love? Don''t you know? We''re two good friends and we like the same type of woman. Mu Qing likes you, so I like you too!"
Zheng Jing had said it so confidently that he did not seem to be acting. Zhao Anan took it seriously.
She only felt her heart full of powerlessness. How did the situation deteriorate to this! She had always thought that it would be impossible for Zheng Jing to fall in love with her, even if the earth was destroyed.
She hadn''t been tortured to death by cancer yet, but Zheng Lun, a healthy person, had almost lost her life!
No, she couldn''t hurt Zheng
Lun and Zheng Jing.
However, what method could she use to free herself from this unclear rtionship? How could Zheng Lun believe that she had always liked Mu Qing and had nothing to do with Zheng Jing?
Zhao Anan had exhausted thousands of brain cells, but still could note up with an effective solution.
Zheng Jing was still mumbling in the driver''s seat."Anan, you said that you don''t like me. Do you believe it? You have rejected Mu Qing''s proposal and you don''t like knife Lee. There are so many handsome guys in your school, but you don''t like them. What does this mean? That means you have someone else in your heart! And this person is, without a doubt, me!"
.
"Bah! Bullshit!"
Zhao Anan scolded Zheng Jing with a dark face."You have not been normal recently. You are like a different person. Don''t talk to me about such things." Just remember not to say these things when you go to the hospital! I will only like Mu Qing in my life. Even if you are the only man left in the world, I will not like you! You will always be Lun ''s!"
"If you like Mu Qing, you can marry him!"
"What if I die after marrying him? Wouldn''t that be harming him?"
"Aren''t you not sick now?"
"How do you know if I''m sick or not! I know my own body well. I will not live long and I will not marry Mu Qing. Of course, I will never marry you!"
"If you don''t want to marry Mu Qing, you will marry me! To tell you the truth, I am Mu Qing''s best friend and I will never fight with him for his woman. But now that you don''t want to marry him, you don''t like him anymore, so he should let go and let me take care of you! After we go to see Lun, if she is fine, we will go back to the Civil Affairs Bureau!"
An idea shed across Zhao Anan''s mind, but it was so fast that she couldn''t catch it.
She had a feeling that she had found a solution!
Zhao Anan scratched her ears and cheeks, but she couldn''t remember what had happened just now.
As for Zheng Jing''s words about going to the Civil Affairs Bureau, Zhao Anan pretended not to hear it.
Zheng Jing had really gone crazy recently. He wanted to marry her no matter what. He felt that he could not live without her. It was so disgusting that he felt numb all over.
When he was in a rtionship with Zhu ruotong, he was not so persistent and let go of her very quickly.
Why was it that when it came to her, he was like a piece of sticky candy, pestering her endlessly!
Zhao Anan couldn''t figure it out. She just wanted to get rid of Zheng Jing as soon as possible. It would be the best for her to escape from the hospital.
However, this was not a long-term solution!
Zheng Jing and PEI Xinhua had gone all the way to the Zhao family. If she disappeared, they would still go to the Zhao family to find her.
Now, she couldn''t go home even if she had a home!
Should she run away from home or go missing again?
No, no, no. Mu Qing would go crazy if she did that. He would definitely abandon everything and go to her again.
Last time, beca
use he went to the United Kingdom to look for her, he even left the hospital and was deprived of his position as the director by mu Wensheng. Later, he even wanted to give up on him and stop working as a doctor at family MU''s Hospital!
She could not avoid her questions at the cost of Mu Qing''s sacrifice.
Zhao Anan''s hair turned white. She covered her head with her hands and suddenly screamed,"Ah!"
Zheng Jing had been driving at a high speed, but he was so startled by her scream that he almost hit a big truck in front of him.
"Anan, what''s wrong? Don''t scream, I''m easily distracted. What if I get into a car ident!"
Chapter 756: Mu Qing, lets go to the Civil Affairs Bureau!
Chapter 756: Mu Qing, let''s go to the Civil Affairs Bureau!
"It''s good to have a car ident! We can both die! You, the culprit, can die now, and I don''t have to live so hard anymore! Hurry up and crash into it, we''ll die together, isn''t that great!"
Zhao Anan shook Zheng Jing''s arm like crazy.
Zheng Jing didn''t even dare to hold the steering wheel. The car swerved forward at a high speed and passed by another car, breaking the ss of another car. It was simply a dangerous situation!
"Zhao Anan, if you don''t let go, I will knock you out and take you to the Civil Affairs Bureau. Then I will have sex with you while you are unconscious!"
Those words were so lethal that Zhao Anan pulled her hand back in fear.
She wasn''t sure if Zheng Jing would really do that. ording to his crazy behavior these days, it was very likely that he would do such a thing.
Zheng Jing had been pushed too far by Zhao Anan. He would never say ''F * ck you''. But if he didn''t make it sound scary and let Zhao Anan do whatever she wanted, they would really go to hell.
Zhao Anan curled up in the passenger''s seat and suddenly burst into tears.
"Wuwuwu, help! The criminal Police are kidnapping innocent girls! Quicklye and save me! Cousin, sister-inw, pleasee and save me! My grandma sold me out! My mom doesn''t want me anymore!"
"Mu Qing, this good friend of yours is a jerk! He''s snatching your woman, quickly kill him!"
She was clearly crying her heart out, but the words that came out of her mouth were so funny that it made people feel that it was funny!
Zheng Jing couldn''t help but burst intoughter.
"You''re so heartless, how can you stillugh! If you marry me, I''ll die, and you''ll only be able to marry a corpse, Hmph!"
"I want your corpse too. You''re mine no matter what!"
The two quarreled all the way and arrived at family MU''s Hospital half an hourter.
In the hospital, Zheng Lun was lying on the bed with a pale face and an oxygen mask on her face. She seemed to be dying.
She was born weak, and now she looked even more pitiful.
Zheng Jing stood in front of the bed with a sullen face and refused to say a word. Zhao Anan held her hand and cried,"Lun, wake up! I''m Anan, I didn''t steal your brother, I''m here to return him to you!"
Shangguan ning felt guilty when she saw Zhao Anan wiping away her tears.
However, she still had to say what she needed to say. Otherwise, all her previous efforts would be in vain.
"Anan, don''t be sad. Lun is out of danger. Doctor mu said that she should wake up in a while. However, I don''t think she''ll want to see you when she wakes up. You can stay with her for a while and leave. I heard that you are going to get a marriage certificate with Zheng Jing. Congrattions!"
Zhao Anan stopped crying.
She turned around and looked at Shangguan ning angrily. She snorted."Congrattions, my ass! Even you think that I''m in love with that idiot Zheng Jing? I have always liked Mu Qing, don''t yo
u know that?"
.
Shangguan ning looked at Zheng Jing helplessly and said, "That''s right, I thought you liked Mu Qing too, but you refused to marry him. But now I heard from Zheng Jing that you are willing to get the marriage certificate with him. Otherwise, Lun would not have be like this. "
Zhao Anan jumped up from the bed in anger and kicked Zheng Jing hard. Then she went over to hold Shangguan ning and said in a mean tone, "Don''t you talk nonsense! When did I ever want to get a marriage certificate with that bastard Zheng Jing? No one else believes me, so you should believe me!"
Shangguan ning looked calm and said in a casual tone,"Alright, then you have to prove it to me! When you get married to Zheng Jing, you can still say that you like Mu Qing. No one would believe you! If you are so capable, go and get your marriage certificate with Mu Qing!"
Zheng Jing said anxiously,"how can you do that? Anan has already agreed to get the marriage certificate with me. How can you get it with Mu Qing?" I don''t agree!"
Zhao Anan red at him irritatedly and said,"shut up!" Mu Qing and I got our marriage certificate, it''s none of your business!"
She suddenly realized something. If she got married to Mu Qing, she would have nothing to do with Zheng Jing.
Wasn''t this the perfect solution?
In this case, Zheng Jing would never marry her again and Zheng Lun would believe that Mu Qing was the one she liked. She would even have to exin to mother Zheng.
The most important thing was that she wanted to marry Mu Qing so badly.
Maybe because they were arguing too loudly, Zheng Lun woke up all of a sudden.
"Big brother ..."
Her soft and weak voice made Zhao Anan shiver. She let go of Shangguan ning and ran to the bedside to hold Zheng Lun''s hand."Lun, you are awake!"
"Go away, I don''t want to see you. You''re not a good person, you took my brother away ..."
"No, no, no, no, no! I will never marry him!"
"You''re lying! If I wasn''t about to die, you would''ve gotten your marriage certificate with my brother. I treat you as my best friend, how could you do this to me ..."
Zhao Anan broke out in a cold sweat. She was afraid that Zheng Lun wouldmit suicide again, so she said hurriedly,"What should I do to make you believe me?"
"I won''t believe you. You''re not a man of your words. Even if you promise me now, you might be my sister-inw soon. I''d better die. Don''t Save Me anymore."
"Aiya, don ''t, Lun! You''ve really misunderstood! The person I like is Mu Qing, not Zheng Jing!"
"Then why did you marry my brother and not Mu Qing? Even a three-year-old child wouldn''t be fooled by such words. Anan, you don''t have to say it anymore. Let me leave quietly! I ... I wish you all happiness ..."
Zheng Lun''s tears started to flow out as she spoke, which made Zhao Anan feel very ufortable.
She suddenly gritted her teeth and looked into Zheng Lun''s eyes."Lun, will you believe me if I marry Mu Qing? You won''t go and seek death?"&nb
sp;
Zheng Lun looked at her quietly and nodded after a long while.
Zhao Anan got up at once, grabbed Zheng Jing''s bag and took out her identity card and household register. Then she ran out of Zheng Lun''s ward and into Mu Qing''s office.
In the office, Mu Qing was treating a patient, and several family members of the patient were sitting beside him. They were all asking about the patient''s condition, and Zhao Anan barged in.
She pulled Mu Qing''s hand and walked out, not caring that there were so many people around."Human lives are at stake! Hurry, hurry, let''s go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and get our marriage certificate!"
Chapter 757: Getting the marriage certificate (1)
Chapter 757: Getting the marriage certificate (1)
Zhao Anan barged into the office like a gust of wind and then pulled Mu Qing out of the office like a fire. The patients and their families were all at a loss.
When they came back to their senses and were about to get angry, Mu Tong walked into Mu Qing''s office with a smile.
His round face was full of kindness as he smiled andforted the patient and the patient''s family. "I''m mu Qing''s brother, Mu Tong. My brother and his wife are busy getting their marriage certificate. Don''t worry, my grandfather taught us both personally. This patient''s illness is not serious, and I think there won''t be any problems. "
Although Mu Tong was not as famous as Mu Qing, he was still very famous in A city, because his family name was also mu and he had studied medicine for several years more than Mu Qing.
When the patient and his family members heard that it was him, they did not have any objections. When they heard that Mu Tong''s condition was not serious, they were all happy and congratted him.
"Congrattions, doctor mu. The MU family is going to have a happy event!"
"We''re going to the MU family''s wedding banquetter! Let''s share some good luck with the newbies!"
"Oh my, isn''t thatdy the one who proposed to Dean mu? You look even more beautiful than in the photos!"
Mu Tong chuckled as he spoke to the crowd, but his heart was in turmoil.
What was wrong with Zhao Anan today? why did she agree to marry Mu Qing? Did the sun rise from the West? Hadn''t she always refused to marry? And Mu Qing had said that Zhao Anan had turned down his proposalst time.
What was happening? The earth is going to be destroyed tomorrow?
He had been confused when Shangguan ning had asked him to take over Mu Qing''s ce. So this was the reason!
Mu Tong sighed in his heart. Mu Qing had finally made it!
His children were all grown up, but Mu Qing had never gotten married. Now, he finally did.
It had not been easy to get Zhao Anan. This girl was always causing trouble. Grandpa was still angry when she tore his new clothes. When she married him, she didn''t know how the old master would scold her!
Zhao Anan took Mu Qing, who was still wearing his white coat, out of the hospital in a hurry. She got into Mu Qing''s car and put him in the passenger seat. Then she sat in the driver''s seat, stepped on the gas and drove out.
The Civil Affairs Bureau was a twenty-minute drive away from family MU''s Hospital, but Zhao Anan arrived in ten minutes. He ran through who knew how many red lights along the way, barging in and out, as if he didn''t care about his life!
Mu Qing didn''te back to his senses until he got in the car.
Because he knew nothing about what had happened to Zhao Anan these days.
He had no idea that Zheng Lun had been admitted to family MU''s Hospital. Shangguan ning had asked other doctors in the hospital to help Zheng Lun put on an oxygen mask. The drip on her wrist was just a normal nutrition needle.
Mu Qing didn''t understand why Zhao Anan suddenly took him to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the marriage certificate.
He wanted to ask what was going on, but Zhao Anan told him to shut up and kept on driving.
Ten minutester, they arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau. Zhao Anan suddenly turned around and asked
,"Did you bring your household register and ID card?"
Mu Qing took out the household register and ID card from the pocket of his white coat and said, "I''ve brought it!"
Shangguan ning had asked him to bring his household register and ID card with him for the next two days so that it would be more convenient for him to register his marriage.
However, what was going on? This was too unreal!
.
Fill in the form, pay the fee, take a photo, and get the certificate.
The whole process took less than three minutes!
The people from the Civil Affairs Bureau were extremely efficient! What was even weirder was that no one came to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register their marriage today. There were only the two of them in the entire Hall!
It was as if it was specially prepared for them to get their marriage certificate today!
Mu Qing was full of doubts, but Zhao Anan let out a long sigh of relief.
"That''s great. Now, when Lun sees our marriage certificate, she will no longer suspect that I am going to marry that crazy Zheng Jing! She would definitely not havemitted suicide! Hahaha!"
Mu Qing didn''t know what to say, but he was smart enough not to ask.
There were too many suspicious points in Zhao Anan''s words.
Mu Qing felt that Zhao Anan must have been tricked by Shangguan ning''s n. Otherwise, why would she suddenly change her mind and drag him to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate?
He looked down at the bright red booklet that represented the legal marriage between husband and wife, still in disbelief.
"Anan, we ... Are married?"
Why did he feel like he was in a dream?
Zhao Anan was also confused, but in order to make Zheng Lun believe that Mu Qing was the one she liked and prevent her frommitting suicide again, marriage was a must.
"Yes, we ... We''re married!"
Hearing her reply, Mu Qing borrowed a lighter from a passer-by and burned the marriage certificate that he had just received. Zhao Anan looked at him in shock.
Zhao Anan''s eyes widened and she tried to grab it. "Bastard, you''re crazy! This is our marriage certificate, why did you burn it? Do you also think that what happened between Zheng Jing and me is true? Are you despising me and not willing to marry me?"
Mu Qing didn''t let her touch it. He was relieved when the marriage certificate was burned to ashes. Then he picked up the angry Zhao Anan and walked to the car.
"You can''t get a divorce without a marriage certificate! Zhao Anan, you asked to marry me this time. I didn''t force you to do it. Now that my marriage certificate has been burned, we''ll always be husband and wife. If you want a divorce, the Civil Affairs Bureau won''t ept it if you can''t produce a marriage witness!"
Zhao Anan was dumbfounded. She stopped struggling and said,"Did you burn the marriage certificate to prevent me from divorcing you?"
She really did have this n!
Mu Qing knew her too well and had blocked her way in advance.
However, this method was too ruthless!
How could he bear to burn that marriage certificate! I just got it, I haven''t liked it enough yet!
Zhao
Anan held her marriage certificate tightly. "You''re not allowed to burn mine! I want to keep this one!"
Mu Qing smiled and said in a gentle and loving tone,"If you like it, I''ll keep this for you. I won''t burn it. Anyway, if I burn one, I can''t get a divorce."
He put Zhao Anan into the car and went to the other side of the car. Then he drove out of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Shangguan ning had made some changes to the n and used a more oppressive way to force Zhao Anan to give in. So Mu Qing didn''t know exactly what they had done, but he knew that it must have been Shangguan ning, Zheng Jing and a few other people who had made Zhao Anan marry him.
Chapter 758: Getting the marriage certificate (2)
Chapter 758: Getting the marriage certificate (2)
Mu Qing sent a message to Shangguan ning secretly. We got our marriage certificate, thank you!
Zhao Anan was still protecting her marriage certificate in the car. After walking for a while, she realized that Mu Qing had already prepared the household register and ID card.
This wasn''t right, this wasn''t right!
It was normal to carry an ID card with you, who would carry a household register with them?
She turned to Mu Qing and asked,"Why did you bring your household register with you?"
Mu Qing lied without blinking."My household register was stolen by yang Muyan once. I took it to register our marriage. So from that day on, I have been carrying it with me."
This seemed to be a very reasonable reason, and Zhao Anan couldn''t find a rebuttal for a moment.
Most of her doubts were gone, but when she saw the path that Mu Qing was walking on, she immediately became unhappy."Where are you going? Let''s hurry back to the hospital! I have to tell Zheng Lun that we have already gotten our marriage certificate! Then tell that bastard Zheng Jing that I am already married to you and that he should stop having any ideas about me!"
Mu Qing chuckled in his heart,"silly girl, you don''t need to go back and tell them. They already know."
She was really stupid to go back and show off her marriage certificate after being deceived.
Mu Qing knew what Shangguan ning had done to force Zhao Anan to get the marriage certificate with him.
He looked at Zhao Anan and asked hesitantly,"Zheng Jing said he wanted to marry you?"
Zhao Anan had heard this question countless times and every time she heard it, she almost broke down. Now that Mu Qing asked the same question, she was so angry that her eyes turned red.
"I''m already married to you and we''ve already registered our marriage! It''s useless to say all this. Let me tell you, the person I like is you, not Zheng Jing! That bastard is using me! I''ll never marry him, I''ll only marry you in this life! No one else believes me, but you must believe me!"
She was furious, but Mu Qing was confused.
What was going on? Zhao Anan had overreacted.
She had actually confessed to him so easily!
He even kept emphasizing that they had already registered their marriage! It was too strange!
What had Shangguan ning done to Zhao Anan? Why did it feel so strange? it was as if she was in another world.
Seeing Mu Qing staring at her nkly instead offorting her like he used to, Zhao Anan suddenly had a bad feeling. He didn''t look happy at all even though they had gotten their marriage certificate.
"Mu Qing, did you also believe Zheng Jing''s voice recordings? Are you also doubting my feelings for you? You didn''t burn the marriage certificate to prevent us from getting a divorce, did you? Do you hate that marriage certificate?"
A recording?
What recording?
Mu Qing was almost suffocated.
He didn''t know anything!
Shangguan ning didn''t want him to get involved in the rest of the things because she didn''t want him to ruin t
hings. So he didn''t know what had happened to Zhao Anan. He only knew that Shangguan ning had asked Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun to put on an act to force Zhao Anan to get married with him.
Mu Qing didn''t know the details.
But at this moment, he really wanted to know! Otherwise, he wouldn''t be able to understand what Zhao Anan was saying.
But Zhao Anan was obviously not in a good state. She seemed to have been greatly stimted and was about to lose control.
Mu Qing suppressed his confusion and held Zhao Anan''s hand. He said softly,"Anan, anyone can doubt your feelings for me, but I won ''t."
His words made Zhao Anan feel much better.
The feeling of not being trusted by everyone and being misunderstood by everyone was just too unbearable!
She had the illusion that she was the only one who was sober!
She was the only one who had told the truth, but no one believed her. Everyone believed Zheng Jing''s words, even Zheng Jing himself.
This feeling was too terrifying!
Zhao Anan was afraid that even Mu Qing would not believe her. Even he would think that she had fallen in love with Zheng Jing.
This wasn''t a misunderstanding. This was a disaster!
Luckily, Mu Qing did not doubt her. He still trusted her.
Zhao Anan was so touched that she burst into tears.
Mu Qing was the best to her, and he trusted her unconditionally.
Mu Qing stopped the car and held Zhao Anan in his arms. He wiped her tears and said in a low voice,"And, Anan, it''s not that I''m not happy about the marriage, I just don''t dare to be happy. I''m a little scared, scared that you''re lying to me again, scared that you''ll tell me again when you wake up tomorrow. I''m feeling very uneasy right now, and I keep feeling like I''m dreaming. "
Zhao Anan hugged his waist tightly and said while crying,"Mu Qing, believe me, this is not a dream, it''s real! This isn''t a joke, we''re really married! I feel so bad with your reaction. I have a feeling that you don''t like me anymore. Otherwise, how could you not even smile when we got married? Didn''t you always want to marry me? Now that I''m married to you, you''re not happy. I''m so flustered!"
Mu Qing looked down at the marriage certificate that Zhao Anan had put in front of his chest and smiled. "That''s right, I''ve always wanted to marry you. I''ve been thinking about it for eleven years, and it''se true today. I can''t ept it. I feel like the heavens are ying a joke on me again, but I''m still very happy. No matter what, I won''t let go of you in the future. "
The two of them drove to Mu Qing''s Vi in the hot spring. Mu Qing carried Zhao Anan out of the car and into the vi.
The water in the hot spring was still steaming. The mist was dense, and the strange rocks were rugged. It was like a paradise on earth.
Zhao Anan was not in the mood to go to the hot spring this time. She was worried about Zheng Lun.
"No, I think we should tell Lun that I am married to you and not Zheng Jing. What if she kills herselfter?"
Mu Qing stumbled and almost threw Zhao Anan out of his arms.
Zheng Lunm
itted suicide?
What a big move!
No wonder Zhao Anan was so crazy that she wanted to get him to register their marriage at the Civil Affairs Bureau.
It took him a lot of effort to suppress the surprise on his face and said as if nothing had happened,""It''s fine. She won''tmit suicide. I''ll personally tell her about our marriage. It''ll be more convincing than you telling her yourself!"
Zhao Anan thought for a while and felt that what Mu Qing said made sense. Zheng Lun wouldn''t believe her anymore.
"Okay, call herter and tell her! If she doesn''t believe me, she should believe you!"
Chapter 759-in the dark
Chapter 759-in the dark
"But is Lun really okay? How did shemit suicide? Was he trying tomit suicide by cutting his wrist? Did he lose a lot of blood? Her face was frighteningly pale! Why did you put an oxygen mask on her? is she in a serious condition?"
After Zhao Anan''s anxiety subsided, her muddled brain finally started to function normally and she asked a few decent questions.
Mu Qing smiled bitterly in his heart. He had no idea how Zheng Lun had mitted suicide"! He didn''t even know that Zheng Lun had mitted suicide"! He was not the one who put on Zheng Lun''s oxygen mask!
Shangguan ning didn''t tell him about this at all!
But his IQ and EQ were much higher than Zhao Anan ''s, so he could easily fool her.
"She''s fine. Don''t worry. She''ll be fine after a few days. Do you still need to doubt my medical skills? You don''t believe me?"
The two rhetorical questions immediately drew Zhao Anan''s attention away. Mu Qing had avoided the main point by not admitting Zheng Lun''s suicide or exining how she had done it.
Zhao Anan nodded. She naturally believed in Mu Qing.
What she was most afraid of now was not being trusted, so she did not want Mu Qing to feel the same way.
"No, no, no, I believe you! With you here, Lun will be fine!"
"Mm, that''s good! I''ll give her a callter, and you can confirm for yourself if she''s alright. "
Mu Qing carried Zhao Anan up to the second floor as he spoke.
He let Zhao Anan into the bedroom and went to another room. Then he called Shangguan ning.
Shangguan ning wasn''t surprised to receive Mu Qing''s call, but she didn''t seem to be very enthusiastic.
"Doctor mu, what''s the matter?"
Mu Qing could tell that Shangguan ning wasn''t very enthusiastic, but he couldn''t do anything about it. Shangguan ning had been ming him for being too indecisive and not wanting to force Zhao Anan. Her n had almost been ruined by him.
"Sis-inw, what''s going on? You have to tell me everything, or I won''t be able to cover up for myself! Sister-inw, please don''t be angry. It was my fault in the past. It''s all your credit that I can get married to Anan now! I''ll definitely thank you in person!"
Shangguan ningughed and regained her usual gentleness."Alright, you don''t have to thank me. When Anan finds out the truth, just don''te to kill me! From the bottom of my heart, I wish you and an ''an happiness, and that you will be together forever and apany each other for the rest of your lives! From now on, Anan will be your wife. You must treat her well!"
Mu Qing felt as if he was in a dream after getting the marriage certificate.
Shangguan ning''s words were so serious that it was obvious that his marriage with Zhao Anan was a fact and not a one-sided dream.
From today on, Zhao Anan was really Mu Qing''s wife!
His wife ...
Mu Qing''s heart skipped a beat. He said with determination, "Don''t worry, sister-inw. I''ll treat Anan well. No matter what happens to her in the future, she''ll always be my wife. I''ll always protect her and take care of her!"
;
Shangguan ning smiled."Yes, I know. You will. Anan didn''t choose the wrong person."
She told Mu Qing about the part about Zhao Anan and Mu Qing was dumbfounded.
.
Had Zheng Jing been forcing Zhao Anan to marry him?
And everyone had been acting like they believed that she and Zheng Jing were in love.
Zheng Lun didn''tmit suicide at all. She was just pretending to be sick because of excessive sadness and hunger strike. Zhao Anan had misunderstood.
Well, even if Zheng Lun didn''tmit suicide, it was indeed a cruel move.
Zhao Anan couldn''t stand it.
If Zheng Lun really wanted to die because of what happened between her and Zheng Jing, Zhao Anan would go crazy.
She was a very loyal person and would do anything for her friends, but she would never betray her friends. Zhao Anan couldn''t stand the thought of snatching her best friend''s man.
No wonder she had to go to the hospital to find Zheng Lun with their marriage certificate.
No one believed her now. They were all saying that she had fallen in love with Zheng Jing and wanted to marry him. She had no way to defend herself, so she had to convince them in the most convincing way.
Getting married to him was indeed the only way for Zhao Anan.
Mu Qing called Zheng Jing after he hung up with Shangguan ning.
He thanked Zheng Jing solemnly. With Zhao Anan''s fiery temper, she must have made Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun suffer a lot.
After they talked, Mu Qing walked into Zhao Anan''s room and handed the phone to her."I have told Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun that we are married and that Zheng Jing will not bother you anymore. Zheng Lun also believes you. You talk to Lun!"
Zhao Anan took over the phone and asked carefully,"Lun, you are not angry with me anymore, are you? You see, the person I like is Mu Qing. I have no intention of marrying Zheng Jing. Please don''t do anything stupid in the future, okay?"
Zheng Lun had already known that Zhao Anan and Mu Qing had gotten their marriage certificate as soon as possible. Shangguan ning had asked Jing Yichen for help so that they could get their marriage certificate as soon as possible. She had told the Civil Affairs Bureau to get everyone to get their marriage certificate done as soon as possible, in case Zhao Anan changed her mind.
She was very happy for Zhao Anan.
She was finally with Mu Qing! That''s great!
Zheng Lun sobbed and said,"Anan, you must be happy in the future!" Marriage isn''t a game. You can''t go back on your word like an engagement. You and doctor mu should live a good life together. Don''t leave him again. He loves you the most!"
Zhao Anan had misunderstood Zheng Lun''s words. She thought that Zheng Lun still didn''t believe her and said that.
She promised immediately,"Lun, don''t worry. I won''t go back on my word. I will always be with Mu Qing." Zheng Jing is yours, he has nothing to do with me. Don''t think too much!"
Zheng Lun smiled embarrassedly and said,"Yes, I believe you, Anan."
There was a deeper mea
ning in her words, but Zhao Anan couldn''t understand it.
She was finally relieved to hear Zheng Lun say that she believed in her.
Zhao Anan let out a long sigh of relief,"that''s good!" Just believe that there is nothing going on between Zheng Jing and me. You scared me to death. I''m so scared that I''ll harm you!"
Zheng Lun bit her lip and said in a low voice,"actually, I am also very scared. I am afraid that you will ignore me in the future. Anan, you can''t ignore me in the future!"
Zhao Anan was totally confused. What was this? she should be afraid that Zheng Lun would ignore her. Why did Zheng Lun say the opposite?
Chapter 760: I have a husband!
Chapter 760: I have a husband!
Zheng Lun didn''t exin further. She just said a few more words of "happy wedding" and then hung up.
She and Zheng Jing had finished their part and they could go home now.
If Zhao Anan could marry Mu Qing, her efforts would not be in vain.
Zhao Anan thought that Zheng Lun was still mad at her when she didn''t say much to her. As a matter of fact, Zheng Lun was afraid that she would arouse her suspicion if she said more.
Zhao Anan sat on the bed, holding the phone in a daze.
She kept feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn''t put her finger on it.
Mu Qing took the phone away from her hand and sat down beside her. He said softly,"Anan, don''t worry. Lun must know that she has misunderstood you."
Zhao Anan came back to her senses and looked at Mu Qing''s handsome face. She suddenly lowered her head and took out her marriage certificate from her chest pocket. She opened it and looked at the words and photos on it. She said with uncertainty, "Aren''t we getting married a little too soon?"
"Yes," Mu Qing nodded. You''re going back on your word?"
This was what he was most worried about.
"Not yet," Zhao Anan shook her head.
She had forced Mu Qing to register their marriage. Although she had been forced to do so, Mu Qing was the most innocent one.
Marriage had always been Zhao Anan''s dream.
She was just too afraid to get married.
"Temporarily?"
Mu Qing frowned. Did that mean that he would regret it in the future?
Zhao Anan suddenly held Mu Qing and buried her head in his arms. She told him about the fear that she had been feeling all this time.
"I often have a dream. I dream that my illness has rpsed, and then I die without any cure. I felt that this was really going to happen. In the dream, I should be around the same age as now, so it wouldn''t be long before my illness rpsed. I thought that since I''m going to die, I shouldn''t drag you down. It won''t do you any good to marry me. "
Her voice was calm, as if she had already epted this reality.
Mu Qing felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.
He held Zhao Anan tightly and put her face against his chest, so that she could hear his heartbeat and know his heartache.
"Anan, don''t think too much. Believe me, the anti-cancer drugs I''ve developed are thetest and most effective. Also, I''ve never thought of you as a burden. You''re my wife in this life. Even if we''re not married, you''re still my wife. You''re pregnant with my child, Anan. "
Zhao Anan touched her belly and said in a low voice,"If only I had given birth to him back then, he would have been ten years old by now!"
"It doesn''t matter. We can just have another child. You were only seventeen years old at that time, and your body had not fully developed. How could I let you take the risk of having a child? I don''t regret aborting him. Otherwise, what''s the point of having a child without you?"
Mu Qing didn''t mention anything about the breeding of the embryo, because it was not a sure thing yet. He would tell Zhao Anan when it was a sess, so that she wouldn''t be able to object to it.
Zhao Anan felt warm inside.
Mu Qing had always put her first. Even if the whole world didn''t believe him, he would believe her.
Zhao Anan didn''t worry too much about the child.
She was already mentally prepared for her infertility, so she wasn''t too sad to talk about it.
The most important thing now was for her to survive.
Mu Qing was still wearing his white coat. There was a faint smell of Chinese herbs on him, which made Zhao Anan feel very safe.
She had been busy the whole day and had not slept wellst night. This morning, Zheng Jing had taken her to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register their marriage and then to the hospital. She was exhausted.
.
Now that she could finally rx, she fell asleep in Mu Qing''s arms.
Zhao Anan didn''t wake up until the evening.
Beside her was the man she had been thinking about, Mu Qing.
He used one of his arms as a pillow for her and wrapped his other arm around her waist, pulling her into his embrace.
This was the happiest moment in Zhao Anan''s life.
She still had the bright red notebook in her clothes. Because of this small notebook, the man who was holding her was no longer her boyfriend.
This was her husband, her husband!
Zhao Anan was very happy.
She''s married!
She could finally get rid of Zheng Jing, that bastard. She was now a married woman and no one would confess to her.
This was great. Knife Lee, Wen Kang, and Zheng Jing could all go to hell!
She was married, she had a husband!
Zhao Anan finally felt this kind of happiness. It was so strange that she didn''t feel anything during the first few hours.
She was so happy that she could not even hate Zheng Jing.
If it had not been for him, she would not have married Mu Qing.
Zhao Anan had thought that she would teach Zheng Jing a lesson in the future, but now she decided to let him go.
Zhao Anan didn''t want to wake Mu Qing up. She took out the marriage certificate carefully and looked at it carefully from the beginning to the end. Then she put it back into her clothes as if it was a treasure.
When Mu Qing opened his eyes and saw this scene, he could not help but feel ripples in his heart.
Zhao Anan loved the marriage certificate so much, which showed that she really wanted to marry him.
Fortunately, he had proposed to her before they got married. Otherwise, it would have been a great regret for the two of them.
"Anan, do you like this marriage certificate so much?" he asked in a low voice.
"You''re awake?" Zhao Anan raised her head and looked into his eyes. She couldn''t help but smile."Of course, marrying you is my biggest wish!"
They were already married anyway, and even if they divorced, it wouldn''t make up for it.
Zhao Anan admitted her feelings openly.
Everyone knew that she liked Mu Qing.
Mu Qingughed happily.
That was the good thing about Zhao Anan. She was not a shy person. As long as she had thought it through, she would admit
it without any hesitation.
The two of them quickly got out of bed. After washing up, they went to the living room downstairs to eat.
Auntie Dou had already prepared dinner. When she saw the two of them go downstairs, she quickly served them porridge and dishes.
After dinner, Mu Qing and Zhao Anan seemed to be the same, but something seemed to be different.
There was still a difference in emotions between getting married and not getting married.
From today on, the two of them officially owned each other. This was recognized by thew, and they were also bound and protected by thew.
Chapter 761: The wedding night (1)
Chapter 761: The wedding night (1)
Mu Qing took Zhao Anan out for a walk after dinner.
This was the high-end vi area of A city. The greenery was very good, the air was fresh, and there were fewer people living here. Under the starry night sky, it was particrly quiet.
The two of them walked on the grass which was turning yellow but still soft and beautiful. Mu Qing introduced the ce to Zhao Anan and asked her,"Anan, where do you want to live in the future?"
Zhao Anan was a little surprised and then she smiled."Haha, I''m already married. I forgot about it just now! I still want to live with the Zhao family in the future!"
"Of course not. You have to live with me. We''ll sleep together, wake up together, eat together, and go to work together."
This kind of life, just thinking about it made him feel very beautiful.
Zhao Anan felt that her heart was about to melt.
She leaned against Mu Qing and interlocked her fingers with his. She smiled and said,"Grandma will have to guard that big vi alone from now on. Her granddaughter is married, so she won''t be able to apany her to relieve her boredom!"
Mu Qing burst intoughter."Who said that? you can go back to visit grandma whenever you want. I will go with you. She has one more person to apany her."
This was also true!
Zhao Anan was even happier.
If her grandmother and mother knew that she was married, would their jaws drop?
No, she had to go home tomorrow to announce the news and then see their surprised expressions.
"Then we''ll stay at your apartment on weekdays ande here on weekends. Otherwise, it''s too far from the city and it''s not convenient to work. I don''t get up too early in the morning."
Zhao Anan made the decision quickly.
Mu Qing didn''t care where Zhao Anan lived, as long as she liked it.
Zhao Anan took a shower and went to bed after she got home.
Mu Qing finished his bath soon and snuggled into the nket, holding Zhao Anan in his arms.
Zhao Anan had thought that Mu Qing would not let her go this time, but unexpectedly, Mu Qing did not do anything inappropriate. He just held her in his arms and closed his eyes, ready to sleep. He did not seem to have any intention of doing anything bad.
This was too abnormal!
Mu Qing had always been a carnivore. When did he be a vegetarian?
Before they got married, he would want to eat her up every time he saw her. He liked to strip her naked and torture her.
Why did he be so well-behaved after they got married?
Zhao Anan was not the kind of person who was used to waiting. She was a proactive person!
Mu Qing would follow the rules, but she would not!
He was her husband anyway, so she had to have the benefits that she should have!
Between the two genders, it was not just men who had that kind of need. Women would also need it! &
nbsp;
Didn''t he hear that women who had been nourished by rain and dew would be more lively and beautiful? If a married couple''s life was not harmonious and loving enough, the woman''splexion would be very bad.
People all paid attention to the harmony of yin and yang!
She liked Mu Qing''s kiss and love.| CAW! She liked his intimate contact with her even more. She liked his madness and passion!
Mu Qing was wearing a cotton pajama, a loose andfortable T-shirt, and a pair of shorts.
Zhao Anan found him to be an eyesore. She took off Mu Qing''s T-shirt without saying anything and said unhappily,"Bastard, what''s the meaning of this? why are you so distant from me on the first day of our marriage? Didn''t you like to sleep naked in the past? Why are you pretending to be a decent person now? He was actually sleeping with his clothes on! Hmph, do you not like me anymore?"
Mu Qing looked at his newly-wedded wife speechlessly and pulled her back into his arms. "Don''t make a fuss and go to sleep!"
"I''m not sleeping! I don''t want to have an asexual marriage! I want you to love me! If we have an asexual marriage, I can Sue you in court!"
Well, Zhao Anan had learned about thew after she became the principal.
Mu Qing shook his head helplessly and said,"who has had an asexual marriage with you?" Even if you can, I can ''t!"
"Then why don''t you touch me anymore?"
"Why didn''t I touch you? aren''t we pressed together?"
Zhao Anan said angrily,"you know that''s not what I meant!" I''m asking you to have me, like before!"
She had made it clear that Mu Qing understood what she meant. He was just pretending. In fact, he was already having a reaction in his lower body.
Zhao Anan wasn''t wearing any underclothes, but a Lacy nightgown, which he had bought for her and had been waiting for her to wear.
He was not a block of wood. How could he not have any reaction when she was snuggling in his arms?
Zhao Anan even took off his clothes, which was like adding oil to the fire.
Mu Qing''s voice was a bit hoarse. He bit Zhao Anan''s delicate corbones and said in a low voice,"Be good, don''t make a fuss. I''ll have you in a few days. I can''t do it these few days. You''re still going through various physical tests. If I have you, the hormones in your body will change, and it''ll be difficult to observe."
As a matter of fact, Mu Qing didn''t dare to have sex with Zhao Anan because he wanted to extract her ovum next month.
The ovum in her body might be discharged in advance, and he would not be able to extract it at all.
Zhao Anan didn''t know the deeper reason, but she didn''t agree with what Mu Qing had just said.
"I don''t care, I want you! What stupid hormones, it''s up to you to change it. After some time, when the hormones return to normal, we''ll do another examination! I can''t sleep like this on our wedding night!"
"If I want you tonight, I''ll continue to want you tomorrow night and the day after tomorrow. I''ll want you ever
y day from now on! How are we going to do another examination?"
Mu Qing said as he reached his hands into Zhao Anan''s clothes.
It made Zhao Anan shiver and feel numb.
Zhao Anan hugged Mu Qing''s neck and kissed him."I don''t care, I want it! If you don''t take the initiative, then I won''t be polite!"
"Anan, don''t move!"
Zhao Anan''s face was burning and her body felt soft. She bit Mu Qing''s lips and sucked hard.| Suck.
His breathing soon became heavy.
He whispered in Zhao Anan''s ear,"Anan, are you trying to drive me crazy?"
Chapter 762: The wedding night (2)
Chapter 762: The wedding night (2)
Zhao Anan kissed Mu Qing''s lips. She was breathing fast and her cheeks were flushed.
"Qing, I''m so ufortable. I want you ..."
Mu Qing''s hand went from her chest to her chest.| He slid all the way down, caressing her t stomach and taking off herce underwear.
He felt Zhao Anan''s warmth, and a certain part of his body couldn''t bear it anymore.
If he took Zhao Anan in, all the tests and statistics that she had done before would be wasted, and they would have to be re-calctedter.
But if he didn''t want Zhao Anan, she would never let him go.
He was also having a hard time holding it in. He was a hundred times more upset than Zhao Anan.
''Forget it. I''ll just do the statistics again in the future. The ovum extraction can also wait.''
It was rare for Zhao Anan to be so enthusiastic. Besides, it was their wedding night and he didn''t want to leave Zhao Anan with any regrets.
"Silly girl, do you want me that much?"
He responded to Zhao Anan''s kiss, and his words were a little muffled.
Mu Qing turned over and pressed Zhao Anan under him. He took off her pajamas, her shorts and her underwear and started to kiss her wildly.
His hands kept touching Zhao Anan''s body, making her mumble.
Men were born with an overwhelming advantage over women in such matters.
As soon as Mu Qing took the initiative, Zhao Anan threw away all her weapons and armor. She had even forgotten who she was. She just followed Mu Qing out of instinct, looking for the most enjoyable time.
Mu Qing had finally been released from the tight fight, which drove him crazy.
They had not been together for too long!
Zhao Anan was not as strong as Mu Qing. She couldn''t stand it anymore after two rounds.
"You''re so mean, I don''t want it anymore ..."
Mu Qing''s voice was not as clear as before. It was hoarse and sexy."Who was the one who said he wanted it? You don''t want it now that you''refortable? Anan, are you the bad one or am I the bad one? How can you do it twice? don''t even think about sleeping tonight! I haven''t touched you for such a long time, but you forced me to. You can''t me me. "
Zhao Anan had lost all her strength. Sheid on Mu Qing''s chest and listened to his strong heartbeat. She pouted and said,"I said I wanted it, but I didn''t want it so many times. Two times is enough. I''ll keep the rest for now and make up for itter!"
How could this matter be made up for in the future!
"That''s in the future, and today''s is today ''s. Since it''s already like this, I''ll be letting myself down if I don''t eat my fill. It''s our wedding night. As a wife, you should do your duty as a wife and satisfy your husband!"
Mu Qing said as he held Zhao Anan''s waist to stop her from escaping. He pressed himself on her again.
It was a cool autumn day outside the vi, but it was a hot spring inside.
Zhao Anan''s curvaceous body was revealed and s
he was extremely charming.
"Don''t pinch me, it hurts ..."
Mu Qing let go of his hand and put his mouth close to hers.
"Don''t bite me, it hurts ..."
"When did you be so delicate? You can''t pinch me or bite me, do you think I''ll just stand by and do nothing?"
As a result of provoking Mu Qing, Zhao Anan had been bitten by him.
When Mu Qing carried her to the bathroom, she found that she was covered in hickeys.
Fortunately, it was autumn, so she needed to wear long sleeves and tights. Otherwise, how could she face others?
Mu Qing looked at his own masterpiece and was very satisfied. Zhao Anan was his, so he had to stamp a few more times.
The newlyweds did not fall asleep until it was almost dawn.
The two of them didn''t wake up until nineo'' clock the next day.
The autumn sun was warm and gentle, without the heat of summer or the cold of winter. Everything was just right.
Zhao Anany in Mu Qing''s arms contentedly and stroked his chin. She just wanted to keep lying with him.
Mu Qing kissed her soft lips and said,"Morning, honey!"
The word "wife" was so new to Zhao Anan that she burst intoughter.
She had really be Mu Qing''s wife, which was so novel! It was like a dream!
Mu Qing waited for a long time but Zhao Anan didn''t call him. He patted her round bottom and said,"Quickly call me hubby!"
Zhao Anan didn''t know what to say.
She felt that it was a little too corny, and she preferred to call Mu Qing "bastard" or "blockhead."
"Anan, you''re not going to call me? I definitely have a way to make you scream, do you want to try?"
Mu Qing said as he started to move his hands to the secret ce under Zhao Anan''s body.| Let''s go.
Zhao Anan was afraid that he would do it again, so she shouted,"Hubby, I was wrong!"
"What did you just say? I didn''t hear you just now. "
Zhao Anan had no choice but to bow her head and call out to him,"Honey ..."
The ending of the note was so long that Zhao Anan felt embarrassed.
Mu Qing smiled even more brightly than the autumn sun."Good girl! As a reward, I''ve decided to satisfy you tonight!"
The young couple woke up noisily and went to have breakfast together. Then, they drove back to the city to work together.
Zhao Anan was very satisfied with the feeling of being together all the time.
She temporarily forgot about the Grim Reaper hiding in the shadows and indulged herself in happiness.
Mu Qing dropped Zhao Anan off at school and walked into the office with her.
He hugged her reluctantly, not wanting to leave.
He touched Zhao Anan''s soft short hair and his heart softened.
Only now did he have the feeling that he was getting married. Zhao Anan w
as in his arms, and she was his wife.
He was married, had his own family, and had his own partner!
Mu Qing was kissing Zhao Anan when knife Lee barged in."Anan, did you and Zheng Jing ..."
Knife Lee stopped talking when he saw Mu Qing.
Mu Qing didn''t feel embarrassed or angry when he was caught kissing his wife. He said in the calmest tone,"Knife Lee, from now on, you are not allowed to have any ideas about Anan."
"Why?!" Knife Lee was not convinced.
"I''m Anan''s husband and she''s my wife! It''s legal and has been registered at the Civil Affairs Bureau!"
Chapter 763: When is the wedding?
Chapter 763: When is the wedding?
"You two are married?!" Knife Lee was shocked.
This change was too fast! Wasn''t it Zhao Anan and Zheng Jing who were in love with each other the day before? Why was Mu Qing and Zhao Anan getting married today?
He had been knocked out by Zhao Anan and her friends.
Who liked who, who didn''t like who, who forced who to like who!
Zhao Anan still felt sorry for knife Lee. She felt that it was not easy for knife Lee to fall in love with her.
"Knife Lee, you will definitely find someone who is suitable for you in the future. In fact, you don''t know me at all. Mu Qing is the only one who can tolerate my temper, but the others can ''t. My brother is your boss. He used tough at me, saying that whoever marries me will have to suffer for the rest of his life. "
Knife Lee didn''t think that marrying Zhao Anan would be a bad thing. He thought that his life would beplete if he married Zhao Anan.
However, she had already married Mu Qing, so he had no chance.
He looked at Mu Qing with jealousy and then left with heavy steps.
Why did they get married so quickly?
He hadn''t even made a move yet, and the results had alreadye out. He was really unwilling!
Was he going to be alone for the rest of his life?
It wasn''t easy for him to fall in love with a girl, but she had no interest in him at all.
No, when he got back, he had to ask Tiger for advice on how to pursue a girl. Tiger was very experienced in this, even though he had never pursued a woman before.
After knife Lee left, Mu Qing finally felt a little better.
His wife being targeted by another man was not a small matter!
He wanted to paste the word "married" on Zhao Anan''s face so that everyone would know that Zhao Anan was already married and could not be pursued anymore.
Mu Qing stayed with Zhao Anan for a while more and then drove away.
He went to family MU''s Hospital first to approve some urgent matters, and then drove to mu Wensheng''s ce.
He had to tell Grandpa about his marriage with Zhao Anan as soon as possible.
Mu Wensheng had been cultivating the embryo day and night, and Jing Tianyuan was his assistant as usual. The two of them ndered each other and made fun of each other as usual, but they were so close that they could wear the same pants.
"Grandpa, Anan and I have registered our marriage. We are married."
Mu Qing stood behind the old man and felt a little sad when he saw him focusing on the microscope.
If he wasn''t so unfilial, the old man wouldn''t need to work so hard and raise the embryo all day long. What he should be doing now was raising his great-grandson!
Mu Wensheng was so focused on the embryo that he did not take Mu Qing''s words seriously.
After a long while, he raised his head and red at her,""What did you just say?"
"I''m married to Anan. She''s officially your granddaughter-inw now. "
"Go, go, go, I don''t want a granddaughter-inw like this! He only knew how to get into trouble all day long and didn''t have a calm appearance! Old man Jing already has a great-gran
dson, but my great-grandson is still a half-dead tadpole! You''re disgracing this old man!"
"Then she''s still my wife. Your words don''t count." Mu Qing mumbled unhappily. He didn''t like it when others said bad things about Zhao Anan, and he didn''t like it when Grandpa said so.
Mu wen pped the back of Mu Qing''s head angrily."Brat, you''ve grown your wings now, and you can marry whoever you want. Do you still need me to say anything? She''s already married into my family, how can I really not acknowledge her? You only know how to cause trouble for me all day. You don''t even know how to quickly extract a few more egg cells to cultivate your son! If you don''t have a son in the future, I''ll see who you can cry to!"
His son was not important, but his wife was!
Mu Qing was pleased to hear that Grandpa mu had relented."Grandpa, when are we having our wedding?"
The old man red at him, then lowered his head and continued to look at the microscope."I can do it whenever I like, what does it have to do with me! When have you ever heard my words?"
Jing Tianyuan was wearing a white coat, white gloves and a blue surgical mask. He looked exactly like a doctor.
He removed his mask and said slowly,""Aiya, pick a date, find me for this! I''ve done a lot of research on these things!"
Mu Qing knew that Jing Tianyuan had studied the Book of Changes and the eight trigrams. He had studied astronomy and geography for many years in hister years and was very knowledgeable.
"Grandpa Jing, please pick a date for me and Anan!"
Weddings were very particr. Mu Qing knew nothing about it. He was not a superstitious person, but he also hoped that it would be an auspicious day for Zhao Anan to be the most beautiful and happy bride.
Jing Tianyuan put down his mask and said,""Oh, you really want me to count the days? My service fee is very high, and ordinary people can''t afford it!"
Mu Qing burst intoughter."It''s okay. Just do it. I will pay you whatever you want."
Mu Wensheng suddenly turned around and pped Mu Qing on the back of his head."You prodigal grandson, you just give them however much they want, you don''t even haggle! Are you the richest man in the world? The money in old man Jing''s family can''t be spent in a few lifetimes, and you still send money to his family. I''ve really taught you in vain all these years! You''re so stupid!"
Mu Qing touched the back of his head and said in dissatisfaction,"Grandpa, can''t you spank my butt? Don''t hit my head! I''m so stupid, it''s all because of you!"
"Alright, hurry up and get lost! Go to your parents and let them know. Old man Jing will tell you when the date is right. If he dares to ask you for money, I''ll drive him away immediately!"
Mu Qing knew that mu Wensheng had agreed to hold the wedding.
He was scolding him fiercely, but in reality, he felt sorry for him.
He would not let Zhao Anan marry into family mu so quietly. He would definitely invite all the guests and let everyone know about the marriage.
Mu Wensheng would never embarrass Zhao Anan in this kind of situation. Even if he scolded Zhao Anan in private, he would definitely protect her in front of others.
Jing Tianyuan was just joking when he said that he wanted money, and Mu Qing
didn''t take it seriously.
He left mu Wensheng''s ce with a smile and then drove back to his home.
When the servants at home saw him, they were pleasantly surprised and kept greeting him.
Because the MU family had nted arge number of Chinese herbs, they had hired arge number of servants. Originally, some of these servants were responsible for taking care of the old man, but the old man did not like to live here and always preferred to live in the house in the suburbs. So now almost all the servants were taking care of the herbs.
Mu Qing''s mother came out to greet him happily as soon as he entered the house.
Chapter 764: A blissful trifle (1)
Chapter 764: A blissful trifle (1)
Mu Qing didn''te home often. He was either at the hospital or at grandpa''s ce. He wouldn''te back unless Grandpa was at his home.
His rtionship with his parents was not as close as his rtionship with the old master.
However, Mu Qing still felt guilty when he saw his mother, Gu huiru, running out to wee him.
He wasn''t a good grandson, and he wasn''t a good son.
"Qing, why did youe back today? I didn''t even ask the kitchen to prepare anything good in advance!"
Gu huiru''s personality was gentle and she had an elegant temperament. She was a truedy from a wealthy family. The only person she felt guilty about in her life was her son.
The mother and son were not as close as other mother and son, and she had never done her part as a mother to her son.
Mu Qing hesitated for a second, then hugged Gu huiru and smiled.""Mom, don''t bother. You can eat anything. I''m not a picky eater."
Gu huiru was a little overwhelmed by her son''s favor.
Mu Qing had never been so close to her before.
She was so happy that tears were welling up in her eyes. She pulled Mu Qing into the vi.
Mu bingrong saw his wifeing in holding his son''s hand and frowned unconsciously. His wife was still the same as before, treating his son like a child and doting on him to the bone.
However, her son did note back even once in half a year, and all of them went to the old man''s ce.
However, men and women were different. Mu bingrong had always thought that it was the right decision for Mu Qing to follow the old man, as being close to the old man would also fulfill his filial duty, otherwise there would be no one to take care of the old man.
Every time Mu Qing came back, he had something important to do. Otherwise, he would note back.
Mu bingrong put down the medical book in his hand and raised his head to ask Mu Qing, "What''s the matter?"
Mu Qing''s expression froze. He knew that he would onlye home if he had something to do.
"Dad, mom, I''m married to Anan. As for the wedding, you''ll have to discuss it with the Zhao family. "
A few days ago, Mu Qing''s proposal had caused a hugemotion in the entire A city. Of course, mu bingrong and Gu huiru knew about it.
They just didn''t expect the two of them to get married so quickly.
The couple was a little surprised, but Gu huiru was both surprised and happy. She said happily,""Son, you''re married? This was great! Your father and I will take care of the wedding. Tomorrow, we will go to the Zhao family in person. We must hold a grand wedding and let Anan marry into the family in a grand way!"
Gu huiru liked Zhao Anan very much. In fact, she liked everything that her son liked.
In the future, it would be the daughter-inw who would be spending time with her son, not her. She wasn''t an evil mother-inw, so she had to pick one that she liked.
But mu bingrong did not like Zhao Anan. He had been very unhappy about the proposal a few days ago.
He had always disapproved of Mu Qing marrying Zhao Anan. He felt that if his son was going to marry someone, he should marry a good wife like Gu huiru, instead of a crazy girl like Zhao Anan.
But apparently, Mu Qing did not listen to him at all. He had been strongly against his rtionship with Zhao Anan and refused to go home for a long time, which made Gu huiruin about him for a long time.
Now that they
were married, it was toote for him to say anything.
Mu bingrong snorted coldly and didn''t speak.
Gu huiru red at him and then pulled Mu Qing to ask him questions. She felt that her son had lost weight these days and her heart ached for him.
Mu Qing stayed with her patiently. He felt sad when he saw the White hair on her temples.
His mother was getting old. He would bring Zhao Anan back to visit them often to fulfill his responsibility as a son.
Mu Qing apanied Gu huiru for the whole afternoon and only drove away in the evening.
He was going to pick Zhao Anan up from work.
In fact, Zhao Anan had gone back home within an hour of work.
Getting married was such a big deal. She had to let her grandmother and mother know no matter what.
But apparently, Shangguan ning had already told the two elders about the good news. Zhao Anan didn''t see their shocked faces. Instead, the two of them said the same thing and drove her out, After getting married, she was someone else''s family. Hurry up and get lost. Don''t annoy people at home.
Zhao Anan only stayed at home for ten minutes with her marriage certificate before she was kicked out.
She was both angry and amused. The olddy and Zhao Zhao were both very happy, but they still forced her to stay with Mu Qing, as if they were afraid that Mu Qing would not want her anymore.
She didn''t even want to stay at home, okay!
She wanted to live with her husband!
The moment Mu Qing walked into Zhao Anan''s office, he saw her giggling at a file.
He chuckled and walked to her side, kissing her cheek.""Are you thinking of me?"
Zhao Anan was startled. But when she saw that it was him, she could not hide the smile in her eyes."Nonsense, I''m not. I''m looking at some information!"
"Oh, you''ve improved a lot recently. You''ve even learned to read backward!"
Zhao Anan took a closer look. Oh my God, she had ced the documents upside down!
Alright, she was indeed thinking about him. What was there to not admit?
"What''s wrong with me missing my man?"
Mu Qing held her hand and helped her up. Then he led her outside."Yes, that''s right. You have to think of me like that every day. In order to reward you for missing me, I''m going to take you to buy vegetables!"
"Whoa, bringing me to buy groceries is also a reward! Can''t you have some high-end projects?"
Zhao Ananughed at him, but she was actually very happy.
She had been looking forward to the feeling of the two of them going out to buy groceries together for a long time.
They got into the car and Mu Qing said with a smile,"You want high-end ones? You can only have this project after dinner. Otherwise, you won''t have the strength to do it!"
On the way to the supermarket, Zhao Anan followed Mu Qing and picked out the things.
She held Mu Qing''s arm and Mu Qing pushed the cart, throwing things into it from time to time.
The two of them were a perfect match and were very pleasing to the eye. Many people in the supermarket looked at them from time to time.
Very quickly, someone recognized them.
"Aiya, aren''t they the male and female leads who proposed to me a few days ago? The two of them came to the supermarket to buy something!"
"Oh my God, this man is s
o handsome! You''re even more handsome than in the photos!"
"I was at the scene! I saw the entire proposal! If only my boyfriend could propose to me like this!"
The crowd was in a heated discussion and many of them even took out their phones to take pictures of Zhao Anan and Mu Qing.
Mu Qing felt a little helpless as the progress of his shopping was seriously disturbed.
Fortunately, he was not a celebrity. If he were, he would not even be able to walk out today.
He didn''t pay any attention to the others. He paid the bill and went home with Zhao Anan.
Chapter 765: A blissful trifle (2)
Chapter 765: A blissful trifle (2)
Zhao Anan was not used to being photographed like that. She was used to being free and she did not like to be in the spotlight.
However, whenever someone mentioned that Grand proposal, she would always feel very, very happy.
She thought that perhaps she would be satisfied and happy for the rest of her life for having such a proposal.
"It''s okay. People will forget about us after a while. There''s a lot of news in A city, and we''re the least eye-catching ones."
Mu Qing knew that Zhao Anan didn''t like to be noticed, so heforted his new wife with a smile.
Zhao Anan leaned her head on his shoulder and said happily, "It''s okay, those people are just jealous of me!"
Mu Qing held her in his arms and said softly,"Anan, it''s so good to marry you. I can see you every day."
Zhao Anan''s eyes sparkled. She pouted and kissed him as a reward.
She also felt that it was great to be with Mu Qing every day!
Maybe it was because she had been restrained by the olddy for too long, or maybe it was because Mu Qing and mi Xiaoxiao''s blind date had triggered her, but Zhao Anan didn''t want to leave Mu Qing for even a second.
She wasn''t like this before.
She used to like Mu Qing a lot, but she didn''t miss him too much when she didn''t see him.
But now, whenever she could not see Mu Qing, she would think of him. She wanted to know what he was doing and whether he missed her.
Zhao Anan felt that she had finally understood how to love someone after eleven years.
No matter how long she could live, she would cherish every day.
She hoped that the reply woulde a littleter so that she could enjoy a few more days of happiness.
Zhao Anan changed intofortable home clothes and then followed Mu Qing wherever he went.
He changed his clothes, and she watched him from the side, then drooled at his strong and healthy figure.
He washed and cut the vegetables, and she helped him by the side. Sometimes she peeled the garlic, and sometimes she peeled the potatoes.
The kitchen was filled with steam and the smell of the rice filled the air. It was a warm feeling of home, and Zhao Anan was so happy that she almost cried.
The feeling of cooking with Mu Qing today was very different from the past. In the past, she would always leave after dinner and she didn''t know when they would meet again.
But this was her home today, her home with Mu Qing. She didn''t need to go anywhere. After dinner, they could wash the dishes, clean up the house, sleep and wake up together.
Mu Qing saw Zhao Anan''s Red eyes and thought that she had choked on the hot pepper. He turned off the gas and wiped her eyes with a clean towel.
"It''s too choking in the kitchen. Go out and wait. You''re only responsible for eating when I''m done. I''m here, so you don''t need to do anything. I''m marrying you to give you happiness, not to let you suffer. "
His actions were so gentle, and his tone was filled with love and tenderness, as if he was treating a treasure.
Zhao Anan''s eyes had been filled with tears, but when Mu Qing was nice to her, her tears started to flow.
However, even though she was crying, she was smiling. &
nbsp;
She wiped her tears on Mu Qing and hugged his waist."No, I don''t want to go out. I want to cook with you! I also want to learn how to cook so that I can cook for you in the future! I''ll be very satisfied if you eat my food!"
Mu Qing had the same feeling.
Every time he made food, Zhao Anan would enjoy it and he would feel that it was worth it no matter how tired he was.
Since she liked it, Mu Qing wouldn''t drive her away. He wanted her to stay by his side more than Zhao Anan did. Of course, cooking alone was not as happy as cooking together.
Mu Qing lowered his head and kissed her red eyes."Silly girl, don''t cry. My heart aches when you cry. I''ve been trying to make you smile and be happy. As long as you''re happy, I''m willing to do anything."
His words made Zhao Anan burst into tears even more.
She didn''t know when she had be so emotional. Her tears used to be so worthless.
"I''m happy. I like this. I''ll be satisfied even if I die!"
Mu Qing immediately covered her lips with his fingers."Don''t talk nonsense!"
The word "death" was a taboo to him, because he was too afraid of losing Zhao Anan.
After Zhao Anan was appeased, Mu Qing started to cook again.
He had good knife skills and was very particr about nutrition. The dishes he made were all nutritious and looked good. Zhao Anan''s eyes were full of stars of admiration.
Mu Qing was dressed in light blue home clothes. He was tall and handsome, with a gentle temperament. Even his fingers were long and beautiful.
The way he cooked was full of charm, which had conquered Zhao Anan countless times.
At this moment, she had conquered Mu Qing so easily that she kept kissing him, which made Mu Qing restless.
After dinner, Mu Qing washed the dishes and Zhao Anan hugged him from behind.
Her dependence and change were so obvious that even Mu Qing was a little surprised.
Zhao Anan had never been so clingy to him before, but ever since they got married, she almost wanted to be Siamese twins.
Mu Qing smiled. He liked the change in her. It was sofortable and warm to be held by her soft body.
After washing the dishes, Mu Qing took off his rubber gloves and carried the woman in his arms. He walked out of the kitchen and into the bathroom.
"Honey, let''s take a bath together!"
Zhao Anan was still not used to the word "wife." She felt that it was too mushy.
However, even though it was so mushy, she actually liked it very much!
"I''ve already called you my wife, why don''t you call me hubby?" Mu Qing tried his best to get the benefits he deserved.
Zhao Anan burst intoughter but refused to shout.
"It''s okay, you''ll have time to shoutter!"
Mu Qing put on a wicked smile and took off Zhao Anan''s clothes in the bathroom.
"Aiya, it''s cold!"
"Don''t worry, I''ll make you hot in a while, and you won''t be able to take it!"
Mu Qing turned on the shower and adjusted the temperature of the water. He pressed Zhao Anan against the wall without even taking off his clothes and started to kiss her while
stimting her body.
Zhao Anan had been hugging him from behind and rubbing against him in the kitchen, and he couldn''t stand it anymore.
Zhao Anan''s body was very sensitive and could not stand Mu Qing''s touch. Soon, she fell into Mu Qing''s arms.
She was breathing heavily. She pinched Mu Qing''s underwear with her slender fingers and helped him take it off."You took off all my clothes while you''re wearing your own clothes. This is not fair ..."
Zhao Anan''s voice was so charming that Mu Qing was mesmerized by her voice and actions.| They were calling like crazy!
"Are you ready, Anan?"
Chapter 766: A blissful trifle (3)
Chapter 766: A blissful trifle (3)
The clean and white bathroom was filled with mist and steam.
Zhao Anan was not cold anymore. As Mu Qing had said, she was very hot.
She was pressed against the wall by Mu Qing. Only the white ceramic tiles on the wall could keep her temperature down so that she would not be melted by Mu Qing''s heat.
Zhao Anan bit her lip and said in a seductive voice,""Qing ... Slow down ... Didn''t you say you were going to take a bath ..."
Mu Qing bit her earlobe and said in a low voice, "Isn''t this just a bath? Do you think that I can take a bath with you after I strip you naked? You''re overestimating my self-control ..."
Zhao Anan had lost count of how many times he had done it. When she came out of the bathroom, she had no more strength left.
Mu Qing wrapped her in a bath towel and tucked her into the nket. Then he wiped off the water on his body, got into bed and hugged her. He said in an ambiguous tone,"Sleep naked, I like it this way."
Zhao Anan did not have the strength to argue with him. She had wanted to sleep in her underwear, but now she had no strength to find her underwear.
She snuggled in Mu Qing''s arms like a kitten, with a satisfied smile on her face.| After she recovered, she fell into a deep sleep before the redness had subsided.
The next morning, when Zhao Anan opened her eyes, she felt that something was wrong with her body. She didn''t know why until she woke up.
Mu Qing''s hot hands were touching her body.
Zhao Anan was still feeling sore all over. Seeing that he was ready to attack, she couldn''t help biting him. "Wasn''tst night enough? I don''t want it anymore! This is crazy!"
He moaned infort and pinched Zhao Anan''s chin."This is the duty of a husband and wife. You''ve had enough, but I haven ''t. It''s not bad to be a little crazy. I still want to stay at home and serve you for the next few days!"
He emphasized the word "serve," and the meaning was obvious.
Zhao Anan bit him again and said in a low voice,"I still don''t know who''s serving who!"
He actually didn''t even want to go to work because of that kind of thing. As expected, he was the craziest!
Mu Qing had the habit of having sex with her in the morning. He was always energetic and had good endurance. He would not stop until she begged him for mercy.
This time was no exception.
Zhao Anan''s whole body was numb and her bones were almost broken. He stopped.
Newlyweds were always sweet and happy. They had spent a long eleven years together and had gone through many separations and reunions. Love was particrly precious.
Zhao Anan felt very safe being held by Mu Qing''s strong arms.
She didn''t want to go to work either.
The spring night was short and bitter, and from then on, the king did note to court early.
Zhao Anan couldn''t help but smile. She said in a hoarse voice,"If you were an Emperor in ancient times, you would definitely be an incapable ruler. You would rather have beauties than the country."
"Didn''t I also want the beauty over the country in the modern world?"Mu Qingughed
.
He wasn''t a man with great ambitions. To be able to live a stable and happy life was enough for him.
A person like him was destined not to be a sessful person at the top of the pyramid, but he would be a good husband and a good man.
He could give the woman he loved the most sincere love, and do his best to take care of her and protect her.
Mu Qing and Zhao Anan finally got up and went to work.
Mu Qing was the director of the hospital. Although he didn''t take on many surgeries and consultations now, there were still many things waiting for him to deal with in the hospital. He still had to perform the difficult andplicated operations himself.
Zhao Anan was the principal and she was needed in University of X.
They were reluctant to part, but after work, they immediately snuggled together again.
They were already very familiar with each other, and now that they were living together, there was no obstacle at all.
Even when Zhao Anan threw a tantrum asionally, Mu Qing would never argue with her. He would coax her patiently and admit his mistake first, no matter who was in the wrong.
He was a man, how could he be so calctive with his woman?
Happy times always passed by quickly. Zhao Anan was only throwing tantrums sometimes, but she was trying to be a good wife most of the time.
She would buy clothes and shoes for Mu Qing, apany him to the hospital to work overtime, and go home with him to see Grandpa and his parents.
Their wedding was set to be in may after the new year. It was not just a matter of picking a good day, but also because their wedding was too sudden, the MU and Zhao families had no time to prepare at all. It was impossible to prepare a Grand and perfect wedding without a few months of preparation.
Zhao Zhao only had one daughter, and the amount of dowry she had given Zhao Anan was so much that it shocked everyone in family mu.
They all knew that the Zhao family was rich, but they never knew that the Zhao family was rich to this extent!
There were four vis, as well as all kinds of sports cars and expensive jewelry. Every piece of jewelry was precious and priceless.
And there was a new helicopter in Zhao Anan''s dowry.
Even if mu bingrong and Gu huiru had never paid much attention to money, they were still shocked by the Zhao family''s wealth!
Mu bingrong had thought that Mu Qing''s proposal was too extravagant and wasteful, but now he finally realized that Mu Qing''s proposal wasn''t extravagant at all for a family like the Zhao family. After all, he had borrowed the helicopter from the Jing family and the Zhao family had given him one.
If it wasn''t for the fact that the Zhao family didn''t have a sessor, and the Zhao olddy and Zhao Zhao deliberately kept a low profile, the Zhao family would definitely be in the top five of A city.
Zhao Anan didn''t care about the wedding or the dowry. As long as she could be with Mu Qing, nothing else mattered.
She only cared about Mu Qing.
Many of the properties of family Zhao had been transferred to Jing Yichen and he was in c
harge of them. These properties would only decline quickly in Zhao Anan''s hands and only Jing Yichen could make them appreciate in value.
Jing Yichen had money anyway. If Zhao Anan needed money in the future, she could ask her cousin for it.
But Zhao Anan was not interested in spending Jing Yichen''s or family Zhao''s money. She liked Hua muqing''s money.
It was a totally different feeling. If Jing Yichen had given her money, she would not have taken it seriously.
But she was very happy with Mu Qing''s money. She spent it carefully and never wasted it, which helped her to get rid of a bad habit of buying things randomly.
Chapter 767-bestie group
Chapter 767-bestie group
Luckily, Mu Qing was good at making money. As long as Zhao Anan didn''t want to buy a helicopter, he could afford it.
One week after their wedding, Mu Qing had bought a pair of rings for Zhao Anan and took her to pick out a wedding dress and gown half a monthter.
Zhao Anan had seen Shangguan ning in a wedding dress before. She had thought that Shangguan ning was the most beautiful bride at that time. She had thought that she would never have the chance to wear a wedding dress in her life. She didn''t expect that she could wear one.
Although she didn''t like dresses, the meaning of a wedding dress was too special. She unconsciously fell in love with this kind of pure and gorgeous clothes.
In Zhao Anan''s eyes, there was not much difference between dresses and wedding gowns. She could not find anything special about them.
She asked Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun to help her pick out her clothes.
This was the first time that Shangguan ning had seen Zhao Anan after she got married.
Her face was ruddy and herplexion was very good. She had also gained some weight. Her chin was still sharp some time ago, but it was actually a little round today.
Shangguan ning couldn''t help but sigh. Mu Qing was such a good husband. He had raised Zhao Anan so well. Wasn''t he afraid that she would be a little pig?
She teased Zhao Anan with a smile."Hey, Lady Zhao, you look so happy. You have been Living a Good Life. I thought you had forgotten about me after not contacting me for so long."
In fact, she didn''t dare to contact Zhao Anan, because she was afraid that what had happened before would be exposed. If Zhao Anan found out that she had been the one who had worked with everyone to set her up, she would be killed.
But Zhao Anan didn''t seem to have any doubts about what had happened in the past. She even asked her if Zheng Lun was still angry with her.
Seeing that Zhao Anan was Living a Good Life with Mu Qing, Shangguan ning was relieved.
All her efforts were not in vain. Zhao Anan''s marriage with Mu Qing was the best choice.
Hearing Shangguan ning''s teasing, Zhao Anan felt a little guilty.
Ever since she got married, she had forgotten about everyone else and spent all her time with Mu Qing. Mu Qing was the only person in her heart and she barely went back to the Zhao family. She had no idea who Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun were.
Of course, she would never admit to such an embarrassing thing.
"When did I forget about you? You''re a Big Shot now, so it''s going to take me a lot of effort to call you out. My brother sees you as a Pearl, and my nephew needs a mother right now. How could I call you out?"
Zheng Lun couldn''t help but burst intoughter when she heard Zhao Anan''s words.
Zhao Anan was not exaggerating at all. Jing Yichen really protected Shangguan ning as if she was his own baby. He would follow her wherever she went. If he couldn''t protect her by himself, he would send a lot of people to protect her.
There was one time when she went shopping with Shangguan ning. There were more than 20 bodyguards, both in the open and in the dark. She was not used to it. But Shangguan ning had gotten used to it. She even bought drinks for the bodyguards in case they got thir
sty.
Shangguan ning shook her head helplessly."Forget it. They are getting along very well now. My son doesn''t even like me. He is as smart as his father. It doesn''t matter how many walnuts I eat."
Zhao Anan suddenly burst intoughter,"Oh, you finally understand my pain!" You don''t know this, but when I was young, whenever my brother went to my house, I would definitely be despised by my grandmother and mother. I didn''t know anything, and my brother knew everything. I always felt like an idiot in front of him, you know! And he doesn''t even know what modesty is, always looking at me with disdain. I used to hate him!"
Zhao Anan found it funny when she thought of the past.
Jing Yichen was a man of few words and never talked much. But she was a Chatterbox who liked to ask all sorts of questions. All the questions she asked seemed stupid to Jing Yichen, which annoyed him so much that he refused to go to the Zhao family.
Hearing Zhao Anan''s "misfortune," Shangguan ning got happy.
Her best friend had sacrificed herself for others and brought out her pain to make her happy. Of course, she was still very supportive!
Jing Yichen was indeed a smart man, but he had always crushed others mercilessly. He had never crushed her. He was always childish and gentle in front of her.
Although Zheng Lun had met Jing Yichen many times, she had never spoken more than five sentences to him.
She had finally realized how cold a person could be!
In the past, when she met with other men, they would be very enthusiastic towards her and love to talk to her. They would always be around her.
Zheng Lun knew that she looked so sweet and gentle that men would want to protect her. It was normal for men to hit on her.
Jing Yichen was the only man who treated her like air.
He was too cold and indifferent. His gaze made people feel a chill down their backs!
Zheng Lun had always been a timid person. She had always been afraid of strangers. When she saw Jing Yichen, she was even more afraid and would always stay as far away as possible.
She couldn''t understand why such a gentle and quiet girl like Shangguan ning would marry an iceberg like Jing Yichen. Living with such a man was too stressful.
After spending more time with Jing Yichen, she had gradually realized that Jing Yichen treated Shangguan ning differently from other people.
Jing Yichen had always been cold to Zhao Anan, his sister. Only when he was with Shangguan ning did he show a different kind of gentleness.
Shangguan ning was the luckiest of the three of them. She had gotten married the earliest and had a son soon. Now, her son was smart and well-behaved, which made Zheng Lun very envious.
She was someone who really, really liked children.
But unfortunately ...
Zhao Anan noticed that Zheng Lun was a little down.
She held Zheng Lun''s arm and said in an intimate tone,"Lun, are you still mad at me?"
Zheng Lun was a little confused by her sudden question."Why would I be angry with you?"
In her mind, she had lied to Zhao Anan. As for the fact that Zhao Anan had taken Zheng Jing away, it was all an act b
y Zheng Jing. It had never happened. She had no reason to be angry.
Her big, beautiful eyes were full of question marks, innocent and pure, which made Zhao Anan feel even more guilty.
Zheng Lun had forgotten all the grudges so quickly. She looked so lost that she was obviously not angry anymore.
Zhao Anan was delighted. It was great that Zheng Lun was not angry.
She only had two good friends, Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun. She would be very sad if she lost one of them.
She didn''t know how far Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing had progressed. If their progress was too slow, maybe she could help.
Chapter 768: The god of death
Chapter 768: The god of death
"Aiya, it''s good that you''re not angry! Haha, we''ll still be good sisters in the future!"
Zhao Anan said as she reached out to hold Zheng Lun''s wrist.
Her wrist was slender and smooth, like the best suet Jade, and it felt very good to the touch.
Zhao Anan touched it for a few seconds and suddenly remembered that Zheng Lun hadmitted suicide. She raised Zheng Lun''s wrists and saw that they were white and tender, like two pieces of art. There were no scars at all.
She threw a suspicious look at Zheng Lun. She wanted to ask Zheng Lun how she hadmitted suicide, but it was not a good question to ask.
Who would expose other people''s scars like this!
Committing suicide was definitely a taboo to the people involved. Zheng Lun had finally gotten over her anger and she couldn''t bring that up again to make her sad.
Did Zheng Lunmit suicide by taking sleeping pills?
Zhao Anan thought for a while and felt that it was possible.
She didn''t dare to ask more, but held Zheng Lun''s hand guiltily. She had made up her mind to help Zheng Lun and treat her better.
Zheng Lun also felt guilty towards Zhao Anan.
Her rtionship with Zhao Anan was not as deep as that of Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan. After Shangguan ning had set Zhao Anan up, she would not me herself as long as she was happy. Even if Zhao Anan found out the truth in the future, she would not be too worried. They were as close as real sisters.
Zheng Lun had been worried that Zhao Anan would be angry with her after she had set her up, so she had been trying to treat Zhao Anan better.
Both of them were humble and considerate to each other, and their rtionship was closer than before.
Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun helped Zhao Anan pick out the wedding dress, and then picked out the bridesmaid dress for Zheng Lun.
Zheng Lun was the only bridesmaid for Zhao Anan. Shangguan ning was already married and she couldn''t be her bridesmaid.
Zhao Anan was already satisfied with one maid of honor, but she was a little worried about who would be her bridesmaid at Zheng Lun''s wedding.
While the three women were picking out their wedding dresses excitedly, Jing Yichen''s side was in a tense atmosphere.
In thendscapepound, in Shangguan ning''s home, Jing Yichen was sitting on the sofa with Jing Rui in his arms. Jing Yiran, Lu, Zheng Jing and Mu Qing were sitting on the two sides of the sofa.
Mu Qing had been choosing wedding dresses with Zhao Anan, but he was called over by Jing Yichen after Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun arrived.
"Yang Muyan has been very active recently. She has killed 11 people of family Ji and four assassins hired by Ji Bo have all died at her ce. ording to Lu''s spection, the one who has been keeping yang Muyan safe is the world''s top killer, the Grim Reaper. "
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing gasped when they heard Jing Yichen''s words.
In fact, no one had seen the real faces of the assassins on the global ranking. They usually u
sed code names and wore human skin masks when they carried out missions. Now, human skin masks could be made to look very real.
.
The killer with the code name "death god" was a man. No one knew his real name and appearance.
In fact, not only did the Grim Reaper not know what he looked like, but Lu did too.
If they did not know Lu, they would not have known that Angel, who was ranked second in the world, had a baby face and a baby voice. She looked no different from a teenager.
Lu did not know much about the identity of the Grim Reaper. Just as her identity was a top secret in the world of killers, the identity of the Grim Reaper was also a top secret.
"I don''t know ''death'' either. I just feel that his killing methods and styles are very simr to'' death ''. If he is really the one beside yang Muyan, we will be in trouble."
Lu said calmly.
Jing Yiran had been recovering well after the surgery.
He had been trying to get in touch with yang Muyan, but she was very cautious and had only seen Jing Yiran once, for a very short time.
Her face and voice had changed again, so much so that Jing Yiran was not sure if the person he was looking at was yang Muyan.
He had brought Lu with him, and this was the first time Lu had seen the man beside yang Muyan.
Her intuition immediately produced a dangerous signal, and her guard against that man was raised to the highest level. Her perception was extremely sharp, and the killing intent on his body was too strong, not something that ordinary people could have.
In addition to the strange deaths of the Ji family, Lu could basically conclude that this man was the ''Grim Reaper''.
He was the only one who was so obsessed with killing people, who could escape so easily, and who would torture the dead before they died.
The Grim Reaper must have some special abilities. Lu was not sure if his body had been modified, but she was sure that he had extraordinary abilities.
The top ten assassins in the world were not ordinary people. Each of them had their own unexpected advantages.
"Lu, what are your chances of winning him?" Jing Yichen asked calmly.
Lu hesitated and said conservatively,""It should be 50%. He has never failed since he started cultivating. To be able to rank first, his strength can not be underestimated."
Jing Yiran looked at Jing Yichen unhappily. "Let''s make this clear first. We can''t let Lu take the risk. You guys can''t even deal with a woman. I''m not doing it!"
Jing Yichen ignored him and said to Mu Qing and Zheng Jing,""After Yang Muyan has killed most of the people of family Ji, she will definitely take the huge assets of family Ji. This is the best time for us to kill her. If we miss this chance, Zheng Lun and Anan will be in danger. "
Yang Muyan had already spent all of family Yang''s assets, which was why she had started to target family Ji.
Moreover, she had already used illegal means to transfer the assets of the Ji family members she had killed to her own name.
However, those people only had a few million or tens of millions of assets at most, which was not enough for yang Muyan.
She had been forcing Ji Bo to hand over all the assets of family Ji, and then she would stop killing.
Ji Bo only controlled a small part of family Ji''s assets and most of it was in the hands of the olddy. She was more furious than being killed to let the olddy hand over the huge amount of wealth that had been umted by the Ji family for generations.
But the olddy was also very decisive. She asked Ji Bo to contact Jing Yichen so that family Ji could join forces with family Jing to get rid of yang Muyan.
Chapter 769
Chapter 769
"No one is more suitable than Lu to kill people from a distance. Yang Muyan had more than one killer by her side, but the Grim Reaper still had to kill, so he couldn''t stay by her side all the time. As long as the Grim Reaper was not around, Lu would go and kill yang Muyan. Zheng Jing and Mu Qing will deal with the rest of the killers. Ji Bo and I will deal with the Grim Reaper. "
Jing Yichen had already made a rough n. He didn''t want Lu to fight the ''Grim Reaper'' directly, as the odds of winning were not high.
Hearing this, Jing Yiran objected immediately,"no, we can''t let her go!" This is too dangerous!"
"Then you''ll go?" Jing Yichen asked coldly.
Jing Yiran got slightly startled and then said,"Fine, I''ll go, but we can''t let Lu go. She has already killed Tang shunian for you, we can''t let her kill yang Muyan! Yang Muyan is even more dangerous than Tang shunian. She knows that she has offended you and family Ji, so she''s on her guard!"
As soon as he finished, Lu said softly,""No, I''ll go!"
"How can we do that! Don''t be rash, this is not a joke. It''s so dangerous, you''ll lose your life!" Jing Yiran was furious. In his heart, Lu was just a woman and he wanted to protect her, but he was not powerful enough to do so. This made him very angry.
He was so angry not only because of Jing Yichen, but also because of his own ability.
Lu''s expression did not change. She said,""It''s fine. I''ve done more dangerous things than this before, and I survived. I was born to Kill people, and killing people is nothing to me. "
Lu''s reaction was normal, but Jing Yiran''s reaction was so intense that Mu Qing and Zheng Jing, who were sitting nearby, were a little dazed.
Mu Qing was a bit better off. He had seen how Jing Yiran insisted on giving Lu a blood transfusion and knew how important Lu was to him.
But it was the first time that Zheng Jing had seen Jing Yiran care so much about Lu.
The most important thing was that he had treated Lu as an ordinary girl and had forgotten that she was also a pervert. She was ranked second among the world killers not because of luck, but because of her ability!
It would be dangerous for her to kill yang Muyan, but it would not be as scary as what Jing Yiran had said.
Jing Yichen''s arrangement was the most reasonable. He had left the most dangerous "Grim Reaper" to himself and asked Lu to deal with yang Muyan, which was already very considerate of Lu.
She was ranked second, so it was only right for her to deal with the first.
After all, Lu was as powerful as the Grim Reaper. The reason why the Grim Reaper ranked first was that he had killed more people than Lu. In terms of individual power, Lu should be more powerful than him.
After all, not everyone was like Lu, who had been through gic modification to be a superhuman.
Seeing Lu''s insistence, Jing Yiran sat down on the sofa in disappointment.
He didn''t w
ant Lu to take any risks. Didn''t she promise him that she wouldn''t kill anyone? Why did he have to go again?
He realized that he could not stop Lu from killing people. The only person who could stop her was Jing Yichen. She was very obedient to Jing Yichen and treated him as her employer.
Jing Yiran gritted his teeth and suddenly looked up."Brother, are you really going to let your sister-inw take the risk?"
"Pfft ..."
Mu Qing was startled by Jing Yiran''s words. He spat out the water that he had just drunk.
Zheng Jing also looked at him in shock, thinking that he had heard him wrong.
Even Jing Yichen''s face was twitching. Apparently, he was shocked by Jing Yiran.
They were not surprised by the word ''sister-inw'', because it was no secret that Jing Yiran regarded Lu as his woman.
What shocked them was that Jing Yiran had called Jing Yichen "brother"! And he called her that so smoothly and so sincerely!
Was this handsome man in a pink shirt really the Jing Yiran they knew?
Jing Yiran had called Jing Yichen "brother" before, but he didn''t do it willingly. He had only called Jing Yichen "brother" because he wanted to show off in front of Jing zhongxiu and Mo Lan, or because he wanted to say "my good brother". He had never called Jing Yichen "brother" as he did now.
Jing Yichen got goosebumps from Jing Yiran''s words. He held Jing Rui tighter, as if he was afraid that Jing Yiran would do something crazy again.
Jing Rui was the only one who looked at Jing Yiran in confusion. He seemed to be very curious about him.
After a long while, Jing Yichen regained hisposure."Lu had to kill yang Muyan, which was easier than killing Tang shunian. Tang shunian liked to stay underground, and yang Muyan liked to stay on the ground. Lu could choose to kill her from a distance. I''ll assign Lu more people to help her. "
Although his tone was still cold, the meaning behind his words had clearly changed.
Jing Yichen had a strong but cold heart. He rarely made any changes to his decisions. The fact that he could make adjustments for Jing Yiran showed that he valued Jing Yiran.
They were blood brothers from different mothers and shared the same blood. In the past, they had fought each other to the death and could not wait to kill each other.
However, even after the conflict had been resolved, the fact that blood was thicker than water still remained.
They were both surnamed Jing. Even if Jing Yiran had been driven out of family Jing, he would still have the same surname.
Jing Yichen was cold only to strangers and enemies. He wouldn''t care too much about his own people, but he would never let them die in vain.
As long as Jing Yiran did not go against him, and was willing to make concessions and change, he would not be so cold-blooded as to send Lu to her death.
Jing Yiran felt much be
tter when he heard Jing Yichen making some minor adjustments and exining to him.
At least he didn''t call him "brother" in vain!
As a matter of fact, he knew Jing Yichen better than anyone else. They had grown up together and he had done a lot of research and analysis in order to defeat Jing Yichen.
Jing Yiran had always known that although Jing Yichen was cold and arrogant, he would be soft-hearted if he showed weakness to him.
But in the past, Jing Yiran would rather die than bow his head to Jing Yichen.
Lu''s life was at stake, and it seemed very easy for him to show weakness.
Chapter 770: Uncle-nephew
Chapter 770: Uncle-nephew
Jing Yichen was his brother anyway, so it didn''t hurt to call him that.
As long as he could protect Lu and keep her from danger, he was willing to clean Jing Yichen''s shoes for her.
Jing Yiran''s handsome face suddenly showed his signature evil smile. He took Lu''s hand and said,""Come on, Lu, thank our brother. He has promised to let someone protect you!"
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing fell down at the same time.
This person had changed too quickly!
They had looked like they were going to fight with Jing Yichen just now, but how did they suddenly be so loving?
Second master Jing, you''ve lost all your moral integrity!
Lu looked up at Jing Yichen, but refused to say anything.
She couldn''t call Jing Yichen "brother" like Jing Yiran did. What was more, Jing Yichen was indeed Jing Yiran''s brother. It was okay for him to call her brother, but she couldn ''t.
Seeing that Lu didn''t want to call him, Jing Yiran didn''t force her. He took her hand and said to Jing Yichen,"Alright, I have no more questions. Let''s discuss the next step of the n! I can be the bait for you to lure yang Muyan out!"
Jing Yichen was not used to seeing Jing Yiran like this. But luckily, he had always been calm and no one could tell that he was ufortable.
He told them the detailed n and assigned tasks to them. Then, Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun were under more protection in case anything happened to them.
Among all the women, only Lu did not need any protection. Unless the "Grim Reaper" attacked her personally, she could deal with any situation easily.
Jing Yiran got smug again.
See, his woman was still the most arrogant!
Other women were all fragile porcin vases, beautiful but not useful! Only his woman was polished from diamonds, beautiful and useful!
After arranging all the ns, everyone rxed slightly.
Jing Yichen put Jing Rui down on the sofa and went to the bathroom.
Jing Rui was sitting there quietly, not like other children who were crawling around. He looked like a little adult, which made Jing Yiran very excited.
He walked to Jing Rui, picked him up and patted his little bottom.""Do you still remember me? Come, call me uncle. If you call me uncle, I''ll give you candy!"
Jing Rui had no interest in the candy, but he was very interested in Jing Yiran''s perfect face. He kept staring at him.
Mu Qing sneered and said,"forget it!" You even carry candy with you? He''s trying to trick a baby, Ruirui, don''t call him! He was not a good person! Stay away from him, or we''ll be screwed to death by him!"
Zheng Jing also said bluntly,"Jing Rui definitely remembers you. He remembers that you forced his mother to jump into the sea. Then he had toe to this world in advance. He is such a good uncle. How could he not remember you?"
Jing Yiran was sitting there with Jing Rui in his arms when he suddenly got upset."Hey, hey, hey, can the two of you not undermine me! I''m talking to my little nephew, why are you guys bringing up those things! Isn''t he fine now? Besides, his dad almost shot me to death, and I''ve already paid off this
debt! You''re not allowed to say these things in front of my nephew in the future. It will affect my image in his heart!"
"You don''t have a damn image!"
"He will find out about this sooner orter. He will definitelye after you in the future." Mu Qing rolled his eyes at him.
It would take at least twenty years for Jing Rui to settle the score with him, but Jing Yiran did not care.
He looked at Jing Rui sitting in his arms and thought that the child was very cute. Even he, who did not like children, liked him very much.
"Hey, look, don''t you think he looks like me?"
Mu Qing and Zheng Jing said in unison,"It doesn''t look like it!"
Jing Rui looked exactly like Jing Yichen, not Jing Yiran.
"Tsk, you have no eyes! I''m much better looking than my brother, and he''s not as likable as me since we were young! Jing Rui is so likable. He looks like me!"
"I don''t think you''re likable at all, you''re just annoying!" Mu Qing didn''t see eye to eye with Jing Yiran, so he made fun of him.
"Yeah, I also think that you''re not likable at all. Otherwise, why would you have such a bad rtionship with others?"
Zheng Jing didn''t hold any grudges against Jing Yiran, but he was on Jing Yichen''s side, so he wouldn''t side with Jing Yiran.
He liked Jing Rui very much too. He was the first child among them, and Jing Rui was very smart and well-behaved. He was sure that he would be someone else''s child.
Jing Yiran ignored them and kept teaching Jing Rui to call him "uncle."
But Jing Rui just stared at him with his big ck eyes and refused to speak.
Jing Yiran frowned and said,"my nephew is quite good-looking, but why is he not talking?" Could he be a mute? You''re already so big, why can''t you even call someone?"
Jing Yichen had juste out of the bathroom when he heard someone ndering his son.
He said coldly,"you''re the mute one!" My son already knows how to address people. You''re too ugly, so he won ''t. "
Jing Yichen was already being very patient by not kicking Jing Yiran out of the room.
His son was the most outstanding child in the world!
He didn''t greet anyone because he didn''t like to talk.
Besides, not everyone could make Jing Rui talk.
Jing Yiran was not convinced. Jing Yichen had said that he would admit all his shorings, but he had always been proud of his looks. Of course he would not admit it!
"Nonsense, I''m so handsome that even the gods hate me! If you have the ability, then make him call you. If he calls you that, it means you''re not ugly. If he doesn ''t, then you''re not that good looking either!"
The two brothers were bickering when Jing Rui suddenly said,"Daddy!"
"Hey, good son!"
Jing Yichen took Jing Rui from Jing Yiran''s arms into his own. He hated it when other people touched his son.
Jing Rui had not called him for a long time, and the ice on his face immediately melted when he heard him.
It was the first time that Mu Qing an
d Zheng Jing had heard Jing Rui speak. Both of them were not fathers yet and were surprised.
Jing Rui''s voice was so tender and pleasant to the ears, and calling him "dad" could make one''s heart soften.
Jing Yiran snorted,"Humph, this brat is always Against Me!" Just like you!"
Although he said that, he looked at Jing Rui with a gentle gaze.
No matter what, Jing Rui was just a child who did not know anything. He did not have any grudges against his nephew. He felt that having a nephew was a new and fun thing to do. He even wanted to carry Jing Rui on his shoulder and take him out to y, just like an ordinary uncle.
Chapter 771: Three missing people (1)
Chapter 771: Three missing people (1)
Jing Rui was not shy with strangers, but as he grew up, he was able to distinguish between family and strangers.
The person he liked the most was Jing Yichen, and even Shangguan ning was second to him, which made her very jealous.
Jing Rui was not familiar with Jing Yiran, so he would not call him that. The only thing he was willing to call him was "father."
Jing Yichen held him in his arms in a perfect position. It was obvious that he had been carrying the baby for a long time. He was also the one who dressed Jing Rui every day. Jing Yiran was surprised by his patience and care for Jing Rui.
He had grown up with Jing Yichen and had never seen him so gentle.
When he was young, he had always had a straight face and never smiled.
After having Jing Rui, he could not hide his fatherly love anymore. Compared to Jing zhongxiu, he was more qualified to be a father. He was cold to others, but gentle to his wife and son.
When Jing Yiran got home with Lu, he was still thinking about Jing Yichen holding Jing Rui, tidying his clothes and feeding him water.
He put Lu''s soft hand on his palm and said softly,""Lu, let''s get married after this is over! I want to marry you. "
Lu turned to him and asked in confusion,""Isn''t it good for us to be like this?"
Jing Yiran could not help but smile bitterly.
He had already noticed that Lu was not interested in marriage.
Besides, she wasn''t like other women who liked children.
Everyone liked Jing Rui, except for her. She did not care about children or adults at all.
"It''s good like this, but it''s better to get married. "
After a moment of silence, Lu suddenly asked,""Do you want to be a father?"
It was rare for her to be so sensitive. Jing Yiranughed suddenly."I don''t want to be a father. I like the feeling of being a family. If we get married, we''ll have our own family. "
His childhood was iplete because he had never received Jing zhongxiu''s love. His birth was an ident and he was not liked by his grandfather and father.
Zhang Rong wasn''t qualified to be a mother either. In order to keep her chest shape beautiful, she didn''t even want to breastfeed him.
He had grown up under Mo Lan''s care.
He had always yearned for a warm and cozy family. He had always ced a lot of importance on marriage.
He didn''t want to repeat his parents ''mistakes.
He wanted to give his child the best fatherly love. He wanted to be a good father, just like Jing Yichen was now.
Lu looked at Jing Yiran and said softly,""My body has been modified by the virus. It''s very powerful in all other aspects, the only thing that has been weakened is my fertility. The chances of me having a child are basically zero. "
Jing Yiran had already known about this.
However, he still felt very sad when he heard Lu''s words.
He held Lu in his arms, put his chin on her forehead
and said in a low voice,""It doesn''t matter. We can try. Mu Wensheng might have a way. If he doesn ''t, we can adopt one. Before that, I have to make you my wife. "
.
Lu''s heart skipped a beat when she heard the word ''wife''.
She had never thought that she would get married one day. She thought that she would be alone for the rest of her life.
She held Jing Yiran''s waist and said in her baby voice,"That sounds pretty good."
In the wedding dress shop, Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun were helping Zhao Anan pick out the wedding dress and gown.
All the clothes looked the same to Zhao Anan. She tried them on, but she couldn''t find anything special.
Zheng Lun looked at Zhao Anan in the wedding dress and said enviously,"Anan, you look good in any of them."
He wondered when she would be able to wear such a beautiful wedding dress.
Shangguan ning walked over with a wedding dress in her arms and said with a smile,"Lun, stopplimenting her. You will definitely look better in it. She is a tough girl. The dress looks like a pair of pants in her hands!"
It was true. Zhao Anan looked so cool in the wedding dress.
"Waiter, I want to order a pair of pants for the wedding dress!" Zhao Anan shouted with a big smile.
A beautiful woman walked up and nced at Zhao Anan and the other two. She said with a smile,"I don''t think it''s necessary for you to order a wedding dress."
Her tone was a little weird and Zhao Anan''s smile froze on her face.
Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun also sensed the hostility from each other.
The waitress had been staring at Zhao Anan with cold eyes. Even though she was smiling, they did not feel any kindness from her.
Moreover, her appearance was too exquisite and beautiful. Her every move when she tidied the wedding dress revealed an elegance and nobility that ordinary people didn''t have. How could such a person work as a wedding dress shop''s staff?
Zhao Anan stared at him coldly and said unhappily,"What do you mean by that?"
The woman walked to Zhao Anan and patted her face. A strange smile appeared on her face."Oh, what I mean is that you might die before the wedding day!"
Her hands were so cold that Zhao Anan felt ufortable when they touched her face. And her smile was so weird, and even her voice sounded so creepy. Zhao Anan, who had always been bold, was so scared that her hair stood on end.
Shangguan ning pulled Zhao Anan behind her and looked at the woman in front of her with a frown. She asked in an uncertain tone,"Yang Muyan?"
Yang Muyan raised her eyebrows."Oh, you''re so smart. Congrattions! You''re right!"
Shangguan ning and the other two girls were all surprised to hear her admit her identity.
Both Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan had met yang Muyan before, but she lookedpletely different now.
Shangguan ning could recognize her because of her voice and temperament. She had only ever felt such a deep sense of
evilness from yang Muyan.
Shangguan ning knew that yang Muyan had had stic surgery, so she had made some adjustments to her appearance, so that Jing Yichen''s men would have a harder time finding her.
Zheng Lun was the most timid one. She was so scared that her face had turned pale. She bit her lip hard to keep herself from making any sound.
The fact that yang Muyan had poisoned her without anyone knowing was still an unsolved mystery. She had almost be a mute because of her. How could Zheng Lun not be scared when she saw yang Muyan in person?
Zhao Anan, who was not afraid of anything, was scared of yang Muyan.
Chapter 772: Three missing people (2)
Chapter 772: Three missing people (2)
Yang Muyan was different from ordinary people. She was unscrupulous, and she had enough power and intelligence to do whatever she wanted.
Remembering that yang Muyan had been coveting Mu Qing, Zhao Anan got even angrier.
If she was not afraid of yang Muyan''s power, she would have beaten her up already!
She gritted her teeth and said,"so it''s you!" It seems that you''ve changed your skin, but your bad heart hasn''t changed at all! How did you get in here?"
This wedding dress shop was the best one in A city. Mu Qing had wanted to take her abroad to make wedding dresses, but she had chosen this shop because it was too troublesome.
There were a lot of people waiting outside, so how could yang Muyane in without a sound?
Yang Muyan looked at Zhao Anan from head to toe. She was smiling, but there was no smile in her eyes."Oh, how do you think I got in? I killed the original waitress and changed her clothes, so I cane in, right?"
Hearing that she had killed a man, Zheng Lun was so scared that she was trembling and on the verge of copse.
However, yang Muyan refused to let her go. She turned to her and gave her a sinister smile."Lun, don''t be afraid. If I have to choose one of you three to kill, I will definitely kill you first, so you won''t be tortured by fear for long. How about it, I''m good to you, right? Well, I always like to kill the useless ones first and keep the useful ones. Otherwise, how could Mu Qing be my man and how could I kill a genius like Jing Yichen?"
Zheng Lun was so scared by her that she almost burst into tears.
She had been pampered by PEI Xinhua and protected by Zheng Jing since she was a child. She had lived in an innocent environment except for hunger, cold, and beatings when she was young. She had never seen such a vicious woman like yang Muyan.
Shangguan ning held her gently."It''s okay, Lun. Don''t be afraid. We are all here. She won''t dare to do anything to you."
When she went out today, Lee duo had been waiting outside with his men. If it weren''t for Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun who had to try on and change clothes in the room, Lee duo would havee in with his men.
Knife Lee was in charge of Zhao Anan''s safety, and he was standing outside the door.
Zhao Anan red at yang Muyan."You don''t have to scare me. We don''t know who will die." No matter how smart you are, you''re not as smart as my brother. Otherwise, how could all the Yang family members have died, leaving you alive in a state that''s neither human nor ghost!"
"Pa!" A crisp sound was heard!
Zhao Anan''s face was pped hard by yang Muyan. A clear handprint appeared on her fair face.
"Anan!" Shangguan ning screamed.
Zhao Anan was not affected at all. She quickly and urately pped back.
"Pa!"
Yang Muyan also had a handprint on her face, and it was even more severe than Zhao Anan ''s.
"Yo, you want to fight me? Come on, fight! I''ve never been afraid of anyone when ites to fighting! If you have any trump cards, you''d better use them quickly. Otherwise, when you''re dead, you can only go to hell to use them!"
Zhao Anan was so angry after being pped by yang Muyan that she couldn''t hold back her anger any longe
r.
Yang Muyan wiped the blood from her lips and looked at her coldly. She said in a gloomy tone,"Very good. I originally wanted to let you live for two more days, but it seems that you are not willing! If you want to die, I''ll fulfill your wish!"
Shangguan ning and the other two girls sensed something was wrong as soon as she finished her words. But it was toote. They fell into darkness and lost consciousness.
.
When Mu Qing and Zheng Jing returned to the wedding dress shop, it was already empty.
There was no one else in the room except for the dead designer and the two assistants. Shangguan ning and the other two girls had disappeared into thin air.
Lee duo and the others who were standing guard outside did not hear any sounding from inside!
It had been less than forty minutes since Mu Qing had left, and yang Muyan had managed to kidnap him in such a short time.
Her strength was terrifying!
They all thought that yang Muyan was focusing on dealing with family Ji, but she had the audacity to set her eyes on Shangguan ning and the other two.
Was she crazy?!
If Shangguan ning was hurt and Jing Yichen was angered, he would kill yang Muyan without any consideration for anyone''s life.
Yang Muyan was still alive because she had been threatening Jing Yichen with Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun''s lives. Jing Yichen had been wary of her, so he didn''t try to kill her.
Hearing that Shangguan ning had gone missing, Jing Yichen''s whole body turned cold.
Good. If yang Muyan kept hiding, she might be able to live a little longer. But if she came out to seek death, he would have to send her on her way!
He held Jing Rui tightly in his arms and said in a low voice,""Son, your mother is in danger. I''m going to kill someone. You should go to your grandfather''s ce first. Tomorrow, your mother and I wille and take you home."
Jing Yichen did not treat Jing Rui as an ordinary child.
From a young age, he had disyed extraordinary talent, outstandingprehension, and high intelligence.
In the future, he would inherit hundreds of billions of assets of family Jing. His life was destined to be extraordinary and full of blood and killing. If he was not cruel enough, he would be defeated by others.
Therefore, no matter what Jing Yichen did, he would never avoid his son.
Shangguan ning always thought that it was too early for him to teach Jing Rui, but Jing Yichen didn''t think so at all. This had always been how family Jing educated people. Jing Tianyuan had taught Jing zhongxiu this way since he was a child, and Jing Yichen had been taught this way by Jing zhongxiu as well.
This kind of education might make people cold and indifferent, but it was necessary.
It was not a bad thing to be cold to others. Family Jing didn''t need a kind and weak heir, because such an heir was destined to die soon.
Jing Rui was sent to Jing zhongxiu.
Jing zhongxiu had been fishing with Huang lihan. But when he saw his grandson, he changed his original n immediately. His current life was peaceful and stable, which was not suitable for Jing Rui. Jing Yichen had never learned any form of entertainment, such as p
ying poker or fishing.
Jing Rui didn''t need to learn these things, so Jing zhongxiu decided to teach him how to swim. Jing Rui had a preference for water since he was a child. Although he was still young, parents would teach their children to swim.
Jing zhongxiu didn''t interfere with yang Muyan''s business.
His two sons had joined hands. Jing Yiran had changed a lot after his death and he had be closer to Jing Yichen.
This was a good thing for family Jing.
If the two brothers of family Jing couldn''t defeat yang Muyan, they wouldn''t have the face to ask for help from their father.
Chapter 773: My brother is outside
Chapter 773: My brother is outside
It didn''t take long to find yang Muyan.
Jing Yiran always had an amazing intuition in this aspect. He had worked with yang Muyan before and knew her better than Jing Yichen. He had also kept in touch with yang Muyan''s people. Even if she had told him false information, he still found the right ce.
"I''m still thinking, where else in A city can you hide? With my brother''s control over A city, you can hide anywhere you want to because you like to show off. You don''t want to hide, bute out to make your presence known. "
Jing Yiran couldn''t help but show his signature evil smile when he saw the look of shock on yang Muyan.
"So you''re hiding in the Ji family!"
Jing Yiran raised his eyebrows. He seemed to admire yang Muyan''s courage and intelligence.
"I finally know why the Ji family died so easily! The Grim Reaper was lurking right beside them, but they didn''t notice it at all. They deserved to die!"
The "Grim Reaper" he mentioned had two meanings. One was the crazy yang Muyan, and the other was the mysterious killer who was always with her.
Yang Muyan looked at him coldly and sneered,"Are you not afraid of death? If one person finds his way in, I''m afraid you''ll die before the three women!"
"Aiya, it''s fine. My brother is right outside, and so is my woman. If they let me die just like that, it would be so embarrassing! You might not know this, but my brother is very prideful. If his younger brother was killed, he wouldn''t be able to answer to my dad, Grandpa, and grandma!"
"Oh?" yang Muyan sneered. Howe I didn''t know that you and Jing Yichen are so close? He caused your mother''s death!"
"Oh, right, right, right!"
Jing Yiran was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, as if he was going to have a good chat with yang Muyan. His red socks were exposed.
He did not seem to be afraid of yang Muyan''s poisoning. He picked up a cup on the coffee table and gulped down half of the cold water.
After drinking the water, he took out the White silk handkerchief from his pocket, which represented the status of family Jing, wiped his mouth elegantly and said casually,"If you didn''t mention this, I would have forgotten! Tell me, how did my brother kill my mother? Why is it that what I hear from you is different from what I hear from others! If my brother killed my mother, then I can''t do anything. It''s my mother''s fault for killing him.| Where''s mom? Besides, I can''t beat him at all, so it''s useless for me to take revenge!"
Jing Yiran threw a nce at yang Muyan who was still calm and said calmly,"However, if the person who killed my mother was someone else, I will definitely kill that person!"
Yang Muyan''s eyes were calm. "I''ve said it before, I''ll kill you.| Damn it, it''s Jing Yichen. "
"But Jing Yichen said that you were the one who killed that poor woman, yang Muyan! Both of you aren''t good people, you''re scheming and scheming, who do you think I should believe?"
"I don''t have any motive to kill!"
"Wrong!"
Jing Yiran looked at the three-story vi of family Ji and said slowly.
"I also thought that Jing Yichen had the best motive and the way he killed the man was perfect. However, you don''t know him as well as I do. Do you think that he would spend so much effort to kill someone?"
Jing Yiran let out a sadugh and said,"My mom has been urging me to fight for the inheritance of family Jing. She has been possessed! Every day, he''s not concerned about my well-being, but whether my dad has given my brother an extra portion of the family business. She had so many limited-edition luxury goods in the world, but she was still not satisfied. Jing Yichen wanted to attack such a man.| There''s no hope, so it''s impossible for us to go through the trouble of letting her die. "
.
"In the past, I couldn''t understand who could be so powerful that she would die so coincidentally. It was only after I witnessed your abilities that I came to a sudden realization!"
Yang Muyan frowned and said in an innocent tone,"Jing Yiran, what do you mean by this? Are you suspecting me?"
"No, no, no, I''m not suspecting you."
Yang Muyan was just about to heave a sigh of relief when he continued, "I''m sure it''s you. There''s no need to doubt it!"
Yang Muyan''s expression changed slightly, but she quickly recovered. She said sarcastically,"Jing Yiran, you are crazy."
"When a person thinks that the other person has gone crazy, there are usually two situations. First, the other person has indeed gone crazy. Second, you have gone crazy."
A devilish smile appeared on Jing Yiran''s handsome face again. Even a vicious person like yang Muyan felt that his smile was too dazzling.
"It''s obvious that you''re in the second situation. My mother has no enmity with you, and you''re so ruthless to her! The Fengshui of the Ji family''s Vi is quite good, and it''s suitable to be your grave!"
Yang Muyan turned on the TV and three unconscious women appeared on the screen.
"Hmph, you''d better not act rashly. Otherwise, one of the three will die now!" She said arrogantly.
Unexpectedly, Jing Yiran, who had just been acting like a good brother to Jing Yichen, changed his attitude so suddenly.
"Ah? Was it? That''s great!"
"I''ve disliked Shangguan ning for a long time. I threw her into the seast time, but she survived. I regretted it for a long time!"He said in surprise. Well, you can kill her first! If I kill her, my brother will definitely level this ce immediately. You and him will both suffer, and I will benefit from it. How good is that?"
Yang Muyan''s arrogant expression froze.
No matter how smart she was, she couldn''t tell whether Jing Yiran was telling the truth or not.
Because no matter from which perspective, Jing Yiran was the one who benefited from the fight between her and Jing Yichen.
And he had treated Shangguan ning So ruthlessly in the past that he had almost killed her. If family MU''s Hospital hadn''t saved them in time, it was very likely that they would have lost two lives!
Yang Muyan thought that she was unpredictable enough, but Jing Yiran was even weirder than her.
She didn''t believe that Jing Yiran didn''t care a
bout Shangguan ning''s life at all. But she also didn''t believe that Jing Yiran would suddenly be so close to Jing Yichen. Although they were brothers, they had always been enemies. Life and death enemy!
Yang Muyan''s heart wavered.
The best way to kill someone was to let two tigers fight each other. Jing Yiran seemed to be waiting for her to fight with Jing Yichen.
This had been yang Muyan''s n all along. She would benefit from the infighting between the two brothers of family Jing.
She didn''t dare to trust Jing Yiranpletely, but her attitude had changed. She couldn''t let the Grim Reaper kill Jing Yiran yet.
Chapter 774: Who is the number one in the world?
Chapter 774: Who is the number one in the world?
"Oh, and that Zhao Anan, she is Mu Qing''s woman. Mu Qing almost made me lose my manhood. You should get rid of her woman first to vent my anger. That wretched girl, after imprisoning her for half a yearst time, she actually didn''t learn her lesson at all. She ridiculed me whenever she saw me, so it''s better to die!"
"As for Zheng Lun, I don''t care if she is Dead or Alive. But since you have killed both Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan, it doesn''t matter if Zheng Lun is Dead or Alive. She is of no use to us anyway. As long as other people are in pain, this young master will be happy!"
Jing Yiran treated yang Muyan as one of his men and ordered her to kill this and that, which made him look very impressive.
Yang Muyan was a very conceited woman. Hearing Jing Yiran speak to her in such a tone, she looked a little gloomy.
"Did youe here today just to tell me this? You don''t know your ce!"
She looked at Jing Yiran''s handsome face and suddenly felt a strong desire to destroy.
"Do you think you can walk out of here alive?"
Yang Muyan opened a bottle of red wine and poured herself a ss. She looked at Jing Yiran with disdain and said, "I''ve already killed the owner of this vi. His body is upstairs, do you want to take a look? This way, you can also know how miserable you will be after your death. Maybe you don''t know, but I have a gay assassin by my side, and he''ll definitely be very satisfied with a stunning beauty like you. I can pay him a lot less!"
Jing Yiran was not surprised at all. He raised his eyebrows and said,"Oh, I know. Isn''t he the ''Grim Reaper'' who''s ranked first in the world?"
Yang Muyan didn''t expect that Jing Yiran would be able to see through her biggest card.
"It seems that you''re not that stupid! Since you know that it''s the ''Grim Reaper'' who has never failed to kill, you still dare toe alone. You''re quite bold!"
"Who said I came alone? Didn''t I tell you that my brother and my woman are outside? However, we''ve been talking for so long, I think you can try to contact your Grim Reaper. I''m not sure if he''s a God, but he''s probably dead!"
Yang Muyan didn''t believe Jing Yiran''s words. The Grim Reaper was the best killer. He was good at hiding and killing. He also had a sharp sense of danger. This was the reason why he could survive so long.
Unless an inescapable was set up specifically against him, it would be difficult for someone like him to die.
Yang Muyan had wanted to hire the top three assassins in the world to work for her, but the third ranked assassin didn''t want to work with the first ranked assassin, because it would easily expose his real strength.
The second-ranked assassin was even more difficult to hire than the first-ranked assassin. The assassin organization said that the reward she offered was too low, and the killing cycle was too long. There were too many people and the distance was too far, so Angel did not take the mission.
Yang Muyan was shocked when she heard the news.
She had hired the first ce and paid f
ive million Yuan more for the second ce, but Angel still thought the reward was too low!
Who was the number one in the world?
Yang Muyan did not know that Lu, who she had looked down on, was the Angel that she had spent a lot of money to hire.
Lu had left the killer organization. Even if she wanted to take on a mission, she would not do it through the killer organization.
However, the assassin group didn''t want to disclose that Angel had left them. So, whenever someone asked Angel to help, they would use all kinds of reasons and excuses to refuse. So now, the second one was paid more than the first one.
Lu didn''t know that yang Muyan had asked her to be her killer. She was not waiting outside with Jing Yichen as Jing Yiran had said. She had actually been in the vi a long time ago, even earlier than Jing Yiran.
Her mission was to keep Jing Yiran safe and then kill yang Muyan after Shangguan ning and the other two were saved.
However, the Grim Reaper was still alive. Jing Yichen and Ji Bo had sent people to attack him. Jing Yiran was lying to them. Jing Yichen was not here at the moment. Zheng Jing was the one who had been waiting for him.
The "Grim Reaper" was standing guard at the ce where Shangguan ning and the other two were locked up. He was the one who suffered the most.
Jing Yiran had been talking nonsense with yang Muyan, but he was just trying to buy time.
Although yang Muyan was protected by a lot of people, they were not a threat to Lu. Only the Grim Reaper was a threat to her.
However, the current situation was a stalemate.
Lu hid herself in the dark, took out her cell phone and logged into the killer system of the killer organization. She sent a message to the "death god" with the special code of the killer and her location.
"Only by fighting against an opponent like you will I be able to show my worth," she replied quickly.
Lu smiled and put away her phone, waiting for the Grim Reaper to show up.
In fact, she had always wanted to fight with the Grim Reaper. Simrly, the Grim Reaper also wanted to fight with her. He even yearned to fight with her.
It was because there had always been a rumor in the assassin world that her strength should be the best in the world. The reason why "death" was ranked first was not because of quality, but because of quantity.
This was a humiliation that a proud killer could not tolerate.
He had always wanted to kill Lu with his own hands to prove his strength. Now that there was such a good opportunity, he would not care about yang Muyan. He would kill the person he wanted to kill the most.
Besides, he had signed a contract with yang Muyan that he would kill whoever she wanted. She had not given any specific order, so he would not kill Jing Yichen and the others.
To kill someone, there must be a huge reward. Otherwise, the killer would not shoot easily, because shooting at other people would lower his own value.
Jing Yichen soon found out that the assassin in ck who had always been urate was gone.
It was impossible for the Grim Reaper to run away at thest minute. He had brought many people to guard this ce. The oue was not clear yet, so there was no need for him to escape.
If he didn''t escape, then he had something else to do at thest minute, so he gave up on guarding this ce.
Jing Yichen frowned as he thought of a possibility.
He called Zheng Jing at once."Zheng Jing, the Grim Reaper has gone to your side. I guess his target is Lu. Stay on guard. She will be in danger."
Chapter 775: The death countdown
Chapter 775: The death countdown
Shangguan ning and the other two girls were not locked in the same ce. When Jing Yichen found them, Shangguan ning had just woken up.
Before she could figure out what had happened, Jing Yichen had already taken her into his arms.
"Do you feel ufortable anywhere?"
"I''m a little nauseated and dizzy, my throat is dry. "
Shangguan ning''s voice was hoarse. She gradually recalled what had happened.
She remembered that yang Muyan had appeared in front of the three of them, and she had passed out before she could call for help.
The difort in her body was far less terrifying and helpless than the feeling of falling into the darkness.
Shangguan ning didn''t know how Jing Yichen had found her. She looked around and found that Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun were not there.
Her heart clenched and she asked anxiously,""Where are Anan and Lun? How are the two of them?"
Jing Yichen walked out with her in his arms and said in a low voice, "Don''t worry. Zheng Lun is fine. She has been found. Anan is the only one who hasn''t been found. She should have been taken to another ce, but her life is not in danger for the time being. Mu Qing has already gone to find her. "
Zheng Lun was the first one to be found. She was not important to yang Muyan, so there were the least guards around her and she was not hidden.
Perhaps yang Muyan trusted the Grim Reaper too much and thought that Zheng Lun would die Here no matter where she was.
If Lu had not appeared, the Grim Reaper would not have left.
Unfortunately, even though yang Muyan was talented and had great calctive abilities, she was only one person. She could not predict all the unexpected situations.
Jing Yichen carried Shangguan ning to the car and checked her up and down. He was relieved to see that she had no other injuries except for some minor scratches.
"I''ll take you to the hospital for a full body examination first. "
Jing Yichen said to Shangguan ning in a low voice and then asked Tiger to drive.
"I''m fine. There''s no need to go to the hospital. Just send me home directly! Make time to find Anan. "
Shangguan ning didn''t feel any other difort except for a little nauseated.
Jing Yichen kept his hand on Shangguan ning''s wrist and took her pulse."Anan has Mu Qing and knife Lee, she will be fine. There''s something wrong with your pulse, but I haven''t been studying medicine for long, so I can''t tell what''s wrong with you. I''d better go to the hospital first. "
He had checked Shangguan ning''s pulse so many times that he knew it like the back of his hand. He could detect any change in her pulse.
However, although he had learned a little about pulse reading, it was only for pregnant women at that time. He was not a professional in the rest.
Jing Yichen was afraid that Zheng Lun would feel the same way as Shangguan ning, but he didn''t notice it. So he asked her to take her to family MU''s Hospital as well.
When they arrived at the hospital, the person who received them was Mu Tong.
In family MU''s Hospital, apart from Mu Qing, Mu Tong was the most skilled in Chinese medicine.
He had learned Chinese medicine from mu Wensheng and had umted a lot of experience over the years.
He checked Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun''s pulse for five minutes and then said seriously,"Both of them should be poisoned. As for what poison it is, we can''t confirm it by taking their pulses. Go and draw their blood for a detailed test immediately. At this rate, they won''t be awake for long. In at most an hour, they''ll fall asleep. Their physical condition is a bit like animals in hibernation!"
Shangguan ning got anxious. She grabbed Jing Yichen''s hands and said,"Yichen, hurry and find Anan! She must have been poisoned too. Lun and I are in the hospital now. What about her?"
Zhao Anan woke up from unconsciousness and vomited immediately.
When she finally finished vomiting, she realized that she had tied explosives to her body!
The surroundings were pitch ck. There was no one and no sound. In the dead silence, only the ticking of the timer on the bomb could be heard.
Zhao Anan''s fingers were shaking. She turned the timer to her side carefully and saw the red numbers on the timer jumping.
301300299298
It took Zhao Anan several seconds to figure out that 300 seconds was five minutes.
She was so nervous that she didn''t even know how to calcte 300 divided by 6!
The thing tied to her body was actually a time bomb that only appeared in movies! And now, there were only five minutes left. No, no, no, only four and a half minutes!
Zhao Anan''s forehead was covered with sweat. The huge threat of death made herpletely ignore her physical difort. She didn''t even care about the nausea.
How could it be like this!
How could she have a time bomb on her?
The scene before she passed out shed across Zhao Anan''s mind. Yang Muyan''s delicate face appeared in her fragmented memory.
"Damn that yang Muyan!"
Zhao Anan cursed in a low voice with a pale face. But she did not have the strength to do so, and she did not have the time.
She didn''t know how powerful the big bag of explosives she had on her was, but the firecrackers she used to y with when she was young could blow up a child''s fingers and arms. This bag of explosives was hundreds of times bigger than firecrackers, so it could blow her up into ashes!
"Help! Is there anyone there? Brother, where are you? I''m dying,e and save me!"
Zhao Anan suppressed the intense panic in her heart and started to shout for help.
In her heart, Jing Yichen was her all-powerful cousin. As long as she was in trouble, Jing Yichen would always appear in front of her and help her.
She had been dependent on Jing Yichen since she was a child. When her life was in danger, Jing Yichen was the first person she thought of.
"Help!" The words echoed in the darkness, intensifying the fear of death in Zhao Anan''s heart.
Zhao Anan had thought that she would be very calm about death, because she knew that she would die sooner orter in her current condition.
However, she did not expect that when death really came, she would be so scared th
at her whole body was trembling!
The time on the timer was decreasing bit by bit as time passed.
She could clearly see the countdown to her death!
"Brother,e quickly! I''m so scared, I''m going to die! Help me!"
"Anan!"
In the midst of the despairing echo, another extremely familiar voice suddenly appeared!
Zhao Anan was overjoyed and shouted,"Mu Qing, I''m here!"
She didn''t know when, but her face was already covered in tears.
In fact, Mu Qing was the person she wanted to see the most.
Chapter 776 deep sleep
Chapter 776 deep sleep
Mu Qing had no idea how to remove the bomb on Zhao Anan.
His joy of finding Zhao Anan onlysted for a second, and then his face turned as pale as Zhao Anan ''s.
The number on the timer was decreasing by the second, but Mu Qing was sweating more and more.
He video-called Jing Yichen without any hesitation.
Every second was precious. Mu Qing didn''t even have the time tofort Zhao Anan who was scared out of her wits.
Jing Yichen was the best at defusing bombs. If he couldn''t do it, then Mu Qing couldn''t think of anyone who could save him and Zhao Anan.
"Master Jing, Anan has a time bomb with her!"
"Cut the yellow and blue lines, and don''t touch the red ones!" Jing Yichen ordered immediately after he had seen the bomb through the video.
Fortunately, this bomb wasn''t aplicated one, so it wasn''t too difficult to defuse.
Mu Qing was so nervous that his heart almost stopped beating.
He didn''t have any scissors on him that could cut wires!
Fortunately, knife Lee arrived in less than ten seconds, and he had a Switzend army knife with him.
There were only thirty seconds left on the timer. Mu Qing didn''t have the time to think about whether Jing Yichen''s judgment was correct.
He hugged Zhao Anan, who was as pale as a piece of paper, and kissed her. He said softly, "It''s okay, Anan. If we make a mistake, we''ll die together. "
Zhao Anan burst into tears. She regretted letting Mu Qing find her.
Otherwise, she would have been the only one killed by the bomb. But now, if she made a mistake, Mu Qing would be dead too!
Knife Lee and his brothers were all dead!
There were only ten seconds left. Mu Qing cut the yellow line with the sharp Switzend army knife with trembling fingers.
The number on the timer was still decreasing. 9,8,7 ...
Then, he cut the blue line.
The numbers were still decreasing, 6,5,4 ...
Mu Qing''s face turned pale.
Had Jing Yichen made a wrong judgment?
3210
All the time had passed, but the expected explosion did not ur.
It was a sess!
Mu Qing immediately took the big bag of explosives off Zhao Anan''s body carefully, threw it aside and ran out with her in his arms.
He was worried that the explosives would go off again, so he didn''t dare to stay any longer.
Knife Lee also left the scene with his men.
Zhao Anan didn''t burst into tears until Mu Qing got her into his car.
"You scared me to death. I thought I was going to die. I thought I would never see you again!"
Mu Qing held her tightly. He could not calm down.
He was as scared as Zhao Anan.
.
"It''s okay, Anan. It''s okay. We''re safe. Don''t be afraid. I''ll be here with you."
Zhao Anan cried for a while before she realized that Mu Qing was wet and cold.&nbs
p;
He was sweating so much on such a cold day!
His clothes were still dry when he appeared in front of her!
In just a few minutes, he waspletely drenched!
Zhao Anan was shocked. She held Mu Qing tightly and cried,"Why are you so stupid? if the bomb explodes, won''t you die with me? I don''t want you to die, I just want you to live well!"
"It''s fine. Aren''t we all alive? Old master Jing told my fortune and said that I''ll live for a long time. You see, he''s not wrong at all. There''s always good fortune after surviving a great disaster. "
Mu Qing didn''t hold Zhao Anan for too long. Before he found her, Jing Yichen had already called him and told him that Zhao Anan might have been poisoned.
He had felt Zhao Anan''s pulse just now, but he could not feel anything.
Zhao Anan''s emotions were fluctuating so much that her pulse was in a mess. He was in a very bad state at the moment. There would be a high rate of error if he took her pulse in this state. He had to send Zhao Anan to the hospital immediately and let Mu Tong take her pulse.
He let go of Zhao Anan, fastened the seat belt for her, and then drove her to the hospital.
When he arrived at the hospital, Zhao Anan had already passed out.
If Zhao Anan had only been frightened, she would not have passed out. She might have been poisoned as well.
Mu Qing felt very uneasy.
Soon, the results of the blood test came out. Zhao Anan had been poisoned, and her symptoms were exactly the same as Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun.
The three of them had already fallen asleep, and their bodies were in a state of hibernation simr to that of animals.
Mu Tong had never seen such a powerful poison. He didn''t dare to detoxify it, in case it would hurt Shangguan ning and the other two.
"Murin, can you solve it?"
Jing Yichen asked Mu Qing in a cold tone.
Mu Qing had calmed down by now. He was very grateful for Jing Yichen''s knowledge and wisdom. If he had not been so knowledgeable, he and Zhao Anan would not have been able to survive until now.
It was obvious that yang Muyan hade for him this time. She was powerful, but she didn''t dare to confront Jing Yichen directly.
Otherwise, she wouldn''t have kept Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun in the same ce, while Zhao Anan was kept in another ce with a bomb.
The reason why yang Muyan had separated the three of them was that she was afraid that Shangguan ning would be killed after the bomb exploded. If Shangguan ning died, Jing Yichen would definitely kill her.
Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun had been implicated by him this time.
No matter what, he had to wake them up quickly.
"I can detoxify the poison, but my acupuncture is slow. It will take at least half a month for the three of them to wake up unless we find the right antidote."
Mu Qing exined the situation and said, "I''ll ask my grandfather toe. He''s much better at poison than I am. Perhaps he can concoct the antidote. With the antidote and acupuncture, they should be able to wake up in a few
days."
"Alright, I''ll get the helicopter to pick up the old man. I''ll leave this to you, I''m going to find yang Muyan!"
Yang Muyan must die today!
Poison was extremely harmful to the human body. To be able to make a person fall into a deep sleep so quickly, making their breathing and heartbeat weak and slow, and even the blood flow rate slow, this was definitely not a simple poison!
Jing Yichen had seen a simr kind of poison before. If the antidote was not done properly, the brain could be damaged and the person would be an idiot.
He wanted to get the antidote from yang Muyan.
Chapter 777: I care
Chapter 777: I care
When Zheng Jing learned that Zheng Lun had been poisoned, he was extremely anxious.
But he was arranged to pick up Lu here and he could not leave without permission.
He waited anxiously. He wished he could rush into the luxurious vi and kill yang Muyan.
Zheng Lun had beenpletely unlucky.
Yang Muyan was a cruel woman, and Zheng Lun was no threat to her. She would never let go of either of them.
Even though he was the best criminal Police officer in A city, he was still no match for yang Muyan. Otherwise, he would have avenged Zheng Lun in person.
He had brought a lot of police officers to help, but he could not let these people take risks easily.
ck| Losing 10 or 100 gangsters would not cause panic in society, but if he lost 10 people in his Criminal Police team, he would have to resign immediately tomorrow!
To Zheng Jing, it was not hard to ept his resignation. He could quit being a Criminal Police officer and inherit the Zheng family''s business and be a rich man.
However, the criminal Police officers under him were all his Good Brothers. They all had their own families. Losing either one of their children or wives would be a heavy blow to the family.
Therefore, Zheng Jing and his men only stayed at the periphery of the vi and did not enter.
Yang Muyan killed people without batting an eye, ignoring morality and thew. She had so many masters around her!
She had spent hundreds of millions of the Yang family''s assets on this.
Zheng Jing didn''t have to wait long before Jing Yichen came to take his ce.
However, Zheng Jing, who had been anxious, suddenly calmed down the moment he saw Jing Yichen.
Zheng Lun was in family MU''s Hospital now. Mu Qing was there, and even mu Wensheng was there. Her life would not be in danger.
He was not a doctor. Even if he went to the hospital, he could only see her. Other than that, he was of no use.
She might as well stay here and kill yang Muyan with Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen didn''t try to persuade Zheng Jing to leave when he saw that he was still waiting outside.
They needed his help here, but the hospital didn ''t.
In the vi, yang Muyan looked at the "Grim Reaper" who had suddenly appeared in front of her. She had no idea why he had suddenly returned instead of staying at the ce she had assigned him.
The Grim Reaper ignored yang Muyan. His face was expressionless under the skin mask. His brown hair was dyed ck, and his blue eyes were covered by ck contact lenses, making him look like an Asian.
He held the gun in his hand and carefully felt it for ten seconds. Then, as yang Muyan screamed, he fired three shots at a certain ce in the air.
It seemed like he hadn''t spoken for a long time, so he opened his mouth a little awkwardly."A
ngeltodayyoudieorIdieAngel, you die today, or ... I die.
Hearing what he said, Jing Yiran and yang Muyan both looked shocked and serious.
Jing Yiran was worried about Lu''s safety. He had already determined that this man was the world''s top killer, the Grim Reaper.
He was dering war on Lu! A battle of life and death!
Yang Muyan was even more shocked than Jing Yiran, because she had heard that "Angel" meant "Angel", which was a beautiful yet cold word.
The world''s second-ranked assassin was actually lurking in this vi at this moment, and she had not noticed it at all!
The killers that she had failed to hire were actually Jing Yichen''s men!
When did Angele? Why didn''t she know about it at all? the people around her who were responsible for protecting her didn''t notice her at all!
Death suddenly returned just to kill her?
Before yang Muyan could recover from her shock, she felt a gust of cold wind blowing on her back. Then, she heard a familiar child''s voice, which said in a cold tone, "I''ll kill her first, then I''ll fight you. "
Although the Grim Reaper didn''t speak Chinese, he could understand Lu''s words. He knew manynguages, but he could only understand but not speak them. This was something every killer had to learn during their growth period.
He did not care whether Lu killed yang Muyan or not. If yang Muyan was dead, he would just lose an employer. There would be more deals in the future.
He only cared about killing Lu.
Yang Muyan was terrified by the Grim Reaper''s indifferent attitude.
She shouted,"you protect me, and I''ll give you money!" As much as you want!"
Yang Muyan''s voice had be hoarse and unpleasant again because of the continuous talking and shouting.
Jing Yiran felt very ufortable by her voice. He picked his ears and said to the Grim Reaper,"No matter how much this woman offers, I''ll double it as long as you don''t protect her."
Then he looked at yang Muyan sarcastically."Miss yang, I think if you were topete in wealth, you would definitely lose! Even if family yang is still here, they are only the third richest family. Now that family yang is gone and family Jing and family Ji are working together to deal with you, you will die no matter what you think!"
Yang Muyan had a strong mind. She calmed down in a few seconds.
"Oh, really? Second young master Jing, you may not know this, but Shangguan ning and the others are almost dead now. Without my antidote, those three stupid women will never wake up again. There aren''t many people left in the Ji family. If it weren''t for their assets, they would''ve been dead by now!"
"Oh, that''s good! It would be best if all of you were dead. I could not only inherit the properties of family Jing, but also the properties of family Ji. You might have used up most of family Yang''s assets, but I guess that family yang
must have some fixed assets that you have not liquidated. You see, the properties of family Jing, family Ji and family yang all belong to me. I have so much money that I can run for the president!"
"Well, you don''t care about the lives of Shangguan ning and the others, but I think someone else does!"
Yang Muyan''s eyes were fixed on the gate of the vi. The next moment, the gate was opened and the ring sun shone in, dazzling her eyes.
A tall man with a cold aura walked in under the sun.
"Yes, you''re right. I care about her life. So, you have to pay a heavy price. Lu, shoot and make her suffer. Don''t let her die!"
Chapter 778: Kill yang Muyan (part one)
Chapter 778: Kill yang Muyan (part one)
"Bang Bang!" Two shots were fired, and the piercing sound echoed in the vi.
Then, yang Muyan''s heart-wrenching screams could be heard.
She fell to the ground and could not get up no matter how hard she tried. Her kneecaps had been broken by Lu''s gun!
This kind of ce was not fatal, but it would bring her severe pain. Even if she went for surgery in the future, her two legs would basically be crippled!
"Jing Yichen, if I am not having a good time, your woman will not have a good time either! All three of them had to die! My poison was specially made from the United States without the antidote, they will never wake up! Even the old man of the MU family can''t save them!"
Jing Yichen walked up to yang Muyan and looked down at her. He said coldly, "It''s okay. You''ll be tortured for as long as they''re asleep. The old man might not wake the three of them up, but he can still keep you alive."
As soon as he finished his words, Tiger and Zheng Jing dragged yang Muyan away.
The Grim Reaper just stood there, looking at Lu vigntly. He did not even look at yang Muyan, nor did he stop her.
He liked to kill people, which could make him crazier than having sex.| Sense!
He had killed countless people in his life, but he had never killed an opponent as strong as Lu!
Even though Lu was just standing there, he could feel the strong power and sense of danger from her petite body.
He had already gotten enough money from yang Muyan and killed more than a dozen people for her. Their employment rtionship had ended.
Lu was also on guard. The Grim Reaper had given her a lot of pressure. This was the most powerful opponent she had met in so many years, which aroused her strong will to fight!
"You guys can leave. This is the battlefield between me and him. Today, only one of us can walk out of here alive."
Lu threw a look at the anxious Jing Yiran and said calmly,"I think the person who will walk out of here will be me."
Jing Yichen walked out first. He believed in Lu''s ability and her judgment of his own ability.
But Jing Yiran was very worried. He was about to speak when the Grim Reaper looked at him coldly.
Even though he had put on cosmetic contact lenses, his eyes were still filled with bloodthirsty killing intent.
Jing Yichen''s voice came from afar."Tiger, take him away,"
Tiger replied,"yes." He strode back and carried Jing Yiran out of the room.
Jing Yiran was so angry that his face turned red. He just wanted to remind Lu to be careful. He had no intention of staying here.
He knew his own level. Staying here would only cause trouble for young deer. That gloomy "death" could kill people with one look. He was not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth!
"Put me down, I''ll walk on my own!"
Jing Yiran shouted with his teeth clenched, but Tiger didn''t seem to hear him. He continued to carry him out. He only listened to Jing Yichen''s orders and ignored Jing Yiran ''s.

In the dark basement, yang Muyan was lying on the ground with her hair disheveled.
This was the basement that Tang shunian had built. Although it was not as advanced as the one he had built in B city, it was more than enough to trap yang Muyan.
The basement was more than 50 meters deep. If she wanted to escape, she would have to go through at least 12 checkpoints, one level at a time, and finally get a fingerprint verification before she could get out.
Of course, the fingerprint verification system would not recognize yang Muyan. The possibility of her getting out was basically zero. Even if her people came to save her, it would be very difficult.
Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran took turns to interrogate yang Muyan.
It was the first time in many years that the two of them had worked together so well that yang Muyan was almost driven crazy.
Jing Yichen didn''t like to talk, so he was only in charge of putting pressure on yang Muyan and torturing her. When she couldn''t hold on any longer, Jing Yiran would take over and start to question her.
"Hurry up and take out the antidote. If you don ''t, the beautiful face you''ve worked so hard to get will bepletely destroyed! Tsk, tsk, tsk, look at yourself in the mirror. You''re really ugly to the extreme now! Her face is so thin, her cheekbones are so high, and her chin is so sharp. She''s like a snake spirit!"
Yang Muyan was dying. She looked at Jing Yiran with hatred, but kept her mouth shut and refused to say a word.
"Actually, it doesn''t matter if you don''t take the antidote. At most, my sister-inw and the others will just sleep for a few more days. Do you really think that old man mu Wensheng can''t make the antidote for the poison? Aiyo, miss yang, you really are a frog at the bottom of the well! Do you think that old man is called ''Divine Doctor'' for nothing?"
"Oh, I understand! You''re waiting for your people toe and save you, right? Hahaha, oh my, do you think that Jing Yichen is easy to deal with? He already knew about the GPS system you imnted in your body and even told his men not to take it out. Otherwise, your men wouldn''t know where to find you! If they don''te, my brother and I will be too free! However, I didn''t expect that there would be so many peopleing to die. I''ve killed too many people, and now I want to kill anyone I see!"
"If you have the ability, then kill me!"
Yang Muyan''s voice was hoarse, and blood was flowing from her lips.
She knew that her internal organs had been crushed by Jing Yichen''s men ten minutes ago and she would start to bleed if she coughed.
"I''m sorry, but I only kill people. You are worse than a pig or a dog. Let Jing Yichen kill you. He doesn''t care if you are a human or a ghost. Anyone who angers him will go to hell!"
"If you don''t kill me, I will escape sooner orter!"
Yang Muyan said in a very low voice.
But Jing Yiran heard what she said. He touched his chin and thought for a while."Oh, you want to die so much? Then I might have to tell my brother to send you on your way first. "
He really thought that he s
hould kill yang Muyan first.
Mu Wensheng had said that he could detoxify the poison, but it would take a long time and it might cause harm to the three of them.
But this was nothing to Jing Yiran.
It was more important to get rid of yang Muyan!
Jing Yichen, Mu Qing and Zheng Jing all wanted yang Muyan to be alive so that they could get the antidote from her and wake up Shangguan ning and the other two from hibernation.
However, yang Muyan was too smart to give them the antidote so easily. If she gave them the antidote, she would lose herst hope. Only death would be waiting for her!
Chapter 779: Kill yang Muyan (2)
Chapter 779: Kill yang Muyan (2)
Hearing Jing Yiran say that he was going to kill her, yang Muyan suddenlyughed silently.
Her voice was so hoarse that it was hard for her to make a sound when sheughed.
However, her soundlessughter made her look even more terrifying and sinister.
Jing Yiran got a bit scared by her smile. He frowned and said,"What are youughing at? I can kill you as easily as stepping on an ant!"
"If you kill me, Jing Yichen will kill you immediately. Hahaha, you are just a poor soul controlled by Jing Yichen! Your Lu is Angel ''s, and we don''t know if she''s still alive!"
"You think I''m pitiful?"
Jing Yiran asked leisurely as he sat on a leather chair that had been brought over, crossing his legs and eating melon seeds.
One of Jing Yichen''s assistants made him a cup of tea because he was thirsty after eating too many melon seeds.
Jing Yiran took a sip to moisten his throat and said slowly,
"You didn''t see me when I was pitiful! This treatment was already considered very good. He was the boss, and I was the second! Family Jing is all his. I used to want to take it from him, but now I don ''t. My woman is ranked second in the world, and his woman can''tpare to her at all. In this aspect, I''ve won! Oh, of course, my woman will soon be the world''s number one! That so-called ''death god'' will really be taken away by the death god very soon. You can forget about it!"
It had been a day and a night, but Lu and the Grim Reaper had note out of the vi.
In order to kill yang Muyan, Lu had brought the most advanced equipment provided by Jing Yichen, including the fastest gun, the best bullets and the best bulletproof vest.
She had enough bullets to kill hundreds or thousands of people. She had not used the rest of them except for the two bullets that were used on yang Muyan''s knees.
Jing Yiran believed that Lu, who was well-prepared, would not be in danger like when she killed Tang shunian.
"You''re the pitiful one, yang Muyan. I said that you''re not human, and I didn''t mean to scold you at all. I really think that you can''t be considered a human anymore! What''s the most basic difference between a human and a beast?"
Jing Yiran started to exin to yang Muyan the principles of life as he ate the melon seeds.
When he was working with yang Muyan, she had always acted all high and mighty, and even raised her chin when she spoke, ordering him around as if he was her subordinate.
He was the second master of family Jing and he had never been treated like this.
Although he had been expelled from family Jing and suffered a lot, he was still a proud man.
Jing Yichen could scold him or beat him. After all, Jing Yichen was his brother and he was indeed better than him in all aspects. He was convinced that he had lost.
Jing Yiran had never paid any attention to people like yang Muyan, but she had humiliated him.
The chance for revenge was right in front of him. If Jing Yiran didn''t torture yang Muyan, he wouldn''t be Jing Yiran anymore.
"The most basic difference between humans and beasts is that humans live while beasts live. Humans worked hard to live a better life, but brainless animals were all trying their best to push themselves under the knife. All animals are muddleheaded and have no sense of self. You''re just like those animals, losing yourself!"
Hearing Jing Yiran call her a bastard, yang Muyan looked at the dark basement and the dirty floor and felt indescribable pain in her heart.
Her knees were already very, very swollen, and blood was constantly seeping out.
The bullet was still in her kneecap and it was impossible for Jing Yichen to take it out for her. He wanted to keep the bullet on purpose so that he could torture her and break her will.
A bullet made of metal embedded in the bone could easily cause inmmation.
Jing Yichen had her bandaged so that she wouldn''t die from blood loss, but he didn''t treat the inmmation of her knee.
Yang Muyan''s body was also injured to varying degrees. She was in pain all over, especially her chest and knees. It was so painful that she could barely breathe.
The double torture, both physically and mentally, attacked her willpower again and again.
The only thing that kept her alive was the fact that she had turned Shangguan ning and the other two into half-vegetative states.
Whenever she thought of this, she would feel very happy!
Besides, she had already arranged enough men to kill Jing zhongxiu a few days ago.
What she had just heard was that Jing Rui was with Jing zhongxiu, and neither of them could survive.
In the dark basement, she had no idea how long it had been, because for yang Muyan, every second here was extremely unbearable. She thought it had been at least three or four days, but in fact, it had only been one day and one night.
Yang Muyan thought that Jing zhongxiu and Jing Rui had already lost their lives in three days.
She felt that she had to live on. She wanted to see Jing Yichen in pain. She wanted to make Jing Yichen lose his father, his wife and his son.
She fantasized and tried to survive. She ate all the food that Jing Yichen had given her, just so that she could survive.
Yang Muyan wasn''t afraid of the two brothers taking turns to torture her.
She knew very well that it would be very difficult to deal with Jing Yichen, but she might have a chance to survive if she dealt with Jing Yiran.
"Jing Yiran, you are just Jing Yichen''s Lackey. You are no different from a beast when you work for him and speak for him. You''re both surnamed Jing, so he''s an Emperor who can cover the sky with one hand, while you can only beughed at!"
In the past, yang Muyan had always been good at sowing dissension.
Jing Yiran was an impulsive man and would not get to the bottom of things. He could only see the surface and it worked to goad him into action.
She thought that it would still work this time.
Unfortunately, Jing Yiran was not
the same as he used to be.
His trust in Jing Yichen had increased rapidly without him knowing.
And yang Muyan was his mother''s murderer! He would be an idiot if he believed yang Muyan.
He was smart and would not reveal his trump card easily. There were always some truth and lies in his words. Yang Muyan had been fooled by him.
"Aiya, miss yang, you actually still have the strength to scold people! What happened between Jing Yichen and me is a family matter. Why are you making a fuss? Little Luo, go and boil a pot of water for this young master. There''s a dead pig here, she''s not afraid of being scalded by the water!"
Chapter 780: Kill yang Muyan (3)
Chapter 780: Kill yang Muyan (3)
Luo Hao, who had been called "little Luo" by Jing Yiran, went to boil some water with a dark face.
He had been following Jing Yichen for ten years and had been traveling with him even before he knew anything.
So he knew very well about the rtionship between the two brothers of family Jing. They used to fight each other, but now Jing Yichen had assigned him to Jing Yiran. Although Luo Hao felt a bit ufortable, he still did what Jing Yichen had asked him to do.
Luo Hao quickly brought the water over.
The water had just been boiled, and it was bubbling with steam. If he poured it on his body, he would definitely be cooked immediately!
Yang Muyan was trembling. Jing Yiran was even more ruthless than Jing Yichen!
Just looking at the boiling water was enough to scare people out of their wits. He was going to scare her to death!
Yang Muyan was conceited, but she wasn''t an arrogant person. If she didn''t beg for mercy, she would be the one suffering.
"Jing Yiran, don''t do anything stupid. We ... We can talk! I can help you!"
Jing Yiran walked to yang Muyan with the water bottle and squatted down beside her. He said with a wicked smile,"Help me? Alright, let my mothere back to life first. "
"I''ve told you, you ...| Mom''s death had nothing to do with me, it was Jing Yichen!"
Jing Yiran ignored her exnation and said,"She died so miserably in the car ident. I finally have the chance to avenge her today. Where do you think I should start with? I don''t like your face. How can such a beautiful face be on someone like you?"
"Don ''t! Jing Yiran, listen to me, I ... Ah!"
Before she could finish her words, Jing Yiran poured the water on her face.
The excruciating pain made yang Muyan cry out in pain and pass out.
Jing Yiran shook his head."It''s really hot. I only poured a little water and I can''t stand it." Little Luo, get some cold water and wake this female pervert up. I haven''t had enough fun yet!"
Luo Hao''s face twitched slightly.
Who''s the real pervert here!
With Jing Yiran''s current appearance, no one would say that he was normal.
But Luo Hao felt that it was reasonable for Jing Yiran to torture yang Muyan. She had tried to frame Jing Yichen for Zhang Rong''s death, which had caused Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran to have a bad rtionship.
Yang Muyan woke up immediately when she was sshed with two basins of cold water.
The moment she woke up, she saw Jing Yiran standing beside her with! Kettle of water! She was terrified. She wished she could just faint again!
"Jing Yiran, stop torturing me. I will tell you the form of the antidote. Take the antidote and go save Shangguan ning and the other two, but you have to let me go first!"
Yang Muyan took out herst life-saving charm. She couldn''t stand the intense pain of her skin being scalded by boiling water!
She didn''t know what her face had be, but it must have been twisted to the point that it was terrifying and disgusting!
She cared so much about her appearance that she had spent a lot of money to get stic surgery to be a peerless beauty. Her face was
so perfect that no man could take his eyes off her!
But now, it had been ruined by Jing Yiran so easily.
The hatred in her heart was monstrous!
She wanted to kill Jing Yiran in the cruelest way possible!
But the premise was that she had to survive and escape!
The antidote was her only bargaining chip.
However, Jing Yiran did not y by the rules. He took the kettle and poured the water on yang Muyan''s right foot.
"Ah, can''t you see that I am not on the same side as Jing Yichen? I''m only doing things for him because he forced me to. If I could resist, I would''ve resisted long ago! What does Shangguan ning''s life and death have to do with me?"
Yang Muyan''s face was as pale as a piece of paper because of the severe burn on her right foot.
She had never expected that Jing Yiran would not let her go even after she had offered him the antidote.
One moment he was Jing Yichen''s brother and he called him brother. The next moment he was not on the same side as Jing Yichen and seemed to want to kill him. Yang Muyan couldn''t tell if he was on good terms with Jing Yichen anymore.
Yang Muyan was in so much pain that she started to lose consciousness.
If it wasn''t for her strong willpower, she might have been tortured to death.
Her survival instinct was stronger than ever!
"You don''t want the antidote?"
Her voice was so low that Jing Yiran had to get close to her to hear her.
Jing Yiran knew that she didn''t have the strength to talk anymore.
It was not that he did not want the antidote, but he did not believe that yang Muyan would give him the antidote.
Yang Muyan was cunning and cunning. Even if she gave them the antidote, it would be fake. Shangguan ning and the other two might not even have any symptoms after taking the antidote.
Jing Yichen had beaten yang Muyan up in the most brutal way possible and had broken all her internal organs, but she had not asked for the antidote.
Why did yang Muyan have to give him the antidote?
She really thought he was stupid!
She had given him a fake antidote form. If he gave it to Jing Yichen and caused Shangguan ning to be unable to wake up, Jing Yichen would definitely me him for it.
"Don''t waste your energy. I don''t like you now, so I''ve decided to send you on your way!"
Yang Muyan looked at him in disbelief. Jing Yichen had told her that he would keep her alive and make her suffer. He had even left a doctor here to treat her wounds and prevent her from dying from blood loss.
But Jing Yiran was going to kill her, regardless of Jing Yichen''s order.
Jing Yichen, whom she feared the most, didn''t kill her. Instead, it was Jing Yiran, who she despised, who wanted her dead.
Seeing yang Muyan''s frightened look, Jing Yiran''s anger dissipated a lot.
This woman deserved to die!
Of course, Jing Yichen would not let yang Muyan go. He wanted to kill her as well. But for Shangguan ning''s sake, he wanted yang Muyan to live a few more days.
But Jing Yiran didn''t think so. He wasn''t worried about Shangguan ning''s condition. She was not his woman and it was not a big deal for her to sleep for a few more days.
He just wanted to kill yang Muyan immediately.
But of course, he couldn''t make it too obvious, in case Jing Yichen decided to fight with him.
However, it was normal for yang Muyan, a woman! To die because she couldn''t stand torture.
So Jing Yiran poured pot after pot of boiling water on yang Muyan, and she had lost her human form.
Yang Muyan was so badly burned that not even God could save her, let alone mu Wensheng!
Chapter 781: Second young master, I am not that kind of person!
Chapter 781: Second young master, I am not that kind of person!
When Jing Yichen came to the basement again, he saw a body lying on the ground. It was unrecognizable and lifeless.
He was both shocked and angry. He looked at Jing Yiran with a pair of sharp eyes."Exin to me what''s going on!"
Jing Yiran sat on his leather chairzily and said, "What''s there to exin? I poured too much water, and yang Muyan''s skin was tender, so she was scalded to death! Even if I didn''t burn her, she wouldn''t have lived for long. You''ve shattered her internal organs. Unless she''s properly treated, she can only live for a week at most. "
"I asked you toe here to get the antidote from yang Muyan, not to kill someone!"
Jing Yichen''s face was cold.
He kept yang Muyan alive because he wanted to get the antidote!
Shangguan ning and the other two girls had been in a deep sleep the whole time. Even mu Wensheng felt that it was very difficult to deal with them. Without the antidote, no one knew how long they would be in a deep sleep.
He didn''t want to see Shangguan ning sleeping like this. He wanted Shangguan ning to be able to talk andugh.
"I didn''t kill her on purpose. I just wanted to use the hot water to scald her and scare her. Who knew she would be so fragile! Ask little Luo, I only poured two pots of water, and I didn''t even have time to use the third pot before she died, and then you came. "
Jing Yichen was so angry that his heart ached, but it was toote. Yang Muyan was already dead.
He knew that Jing Yiran was not someone to be taken lightly.
He had only left for half a day and yang Muyan had already died. Jing Yiran couldn''t wait to kill her.
Jing Yichen suppressed his anger and said coldly,"Since yang Muyan is dead, her men are all yours tomand. I won''t allow any of my men to die!"
Hearing his words, Jing Yiran let out a sigh of relief.
He knew very well whether Jing Yichen was really angry or not. After all, they had grown up together and he knew his brother very well.
Since he left his men here and gave himmand, it meant that he was not really angry about what happened to yang Muyan.
Jing Yichen probably wanted yang Muyan to die as well. He knew that it was almost impossible for yang Muyan to have the antidote.
Jing Yichen left the basement soon after. He took yang Muyan''s body with Qianqian. He wanted to let the forensic doctor do an autopsy to make sure that the dead person was not yang Muyan''s body double, but her.
Although he didn''t get the antidote, yang Muyan''s death had solved one of Jing Yichen''s biggest concerns.
Jing Yiran was right. He had destroyed all of yang Muyan''s internal organs. Even if she did not die today, she would die in a few days.
It didn''t seem to make much of a difference whether he died earlier orter.
When they reached the exit of the basement, a faint voice suddenly came from behind them.""Brother."
Jing Yichen stopped in his tracks. His tall figure stopped at the door.
He turned around and saw that Jing Yiran hade up to the surface from the underground.
He was standing in a small shadow, and the dim light blocked his face, so his expression could not be seen clearly.
"I''m sorry,"she said.
Half of Jing Yichen''s face was in the sun and the other half in the shadow. He looked at Jing Yiran calmly a
nd said,"What?"
"Everything. I know that it was yang Muyan who killed my mother, not you. "
Jing Yichen turned around. His face waspletely covered by the sunlight, and the coldness and indifference seemed to have been driven away by the sunlight.
"Yes."
"I''m leaving," he replied and strode out.
.
Tiger and his other men followed him out with yang Muyan''s body.
The ostentatiousness was still outrageous, and the aura was still threatening.
The only difference was that Jing Yiran''s rtionship with him had changed.
They were working together, not enemies.
Jing Yiran''s lips curled into a bright smile and his eyes sparkled. He looked so charming.
Luo Hao''s heart skipped a beat when he saw this. He quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at the beautiful second young master.
It was really strange. He had never felt so flustered when he looked at other men in the past! Why did her heart beat faster every time she looked at Jing Yiran?
It''s over, it''s over, could it be that he''s fallen in love with this demon?
He was clearly a straight man!
Luo Hao was still struggling in pain when he felt a heavy weight on his shoulder. Jing Yiran had his arms around his neck and was leaning against him.
Luo Hao''s heart suddenly stopped beating, and even his breathing stopped!
"Second ... Second young master, do you have any orders?"
Jing Yiran didn''t know what Luo Hao was feeling. He patted Luo Hao''s shoulder and said with a smile,"Little Luo, my brother is so good to me, are you jealous?"
Jing Yichen was good to him?
How could Jing Yiran know that?
Jing Yichen had only said three words to him coldly just now.
He wasn''t jealous at all. On the contrary, he was very much at ease with the situation!
Luo Hao didn''t say anything. He didn''t want to hurt Jing Yiran''s feelings.
Jing Yiran didn''t need his response. He just touched his chin and said,"Oh my, I killed yang Muyan, who was so important to me, and my brother didn''t scold me. He''s such a good brother! I''ve already prepared a lot of lines, but none of them were used. In this case, I''m rather embarrassed. "
Although he said that he was embarrassed, he didn''t show any embarrassment on his face.
Jing Yiran found that Luo Hao''s body waspletely stiff after holding him for a while.
He stretched out his hand and patted Luo Hao''s firm pectoral muscles, then asked curiously,""Little Luo, what''s wrong? Why is he standing there like a zombie? Rx, I don''t eat people!"
In the past, Luo Hao didn''t have any reaction when he was photographed, so he wouldn''t think of anything wrong. They were all men, so he couldn''t possibly think of anything else.
But after being patted by Jing Yiran today, he felt that all the blood in his body was rushing to a certain ce.
Jing Yiran patted Luo Hao''s chest muscles and found them to be very nice. He patted them a few more times and said in an ambiguous tone,"Tsk, tsk, tsk, your figure is quite good! He looks skinny when he''s dressed and chubby when he''s undressed. His face is also quite handsome. Why are all the people under my brother so good-looking? Come,e,e, take off your clothes and let this young master
see!"
Luo Hao turned pale with fright!
He crossed his arms in front of his chest and took a big step back. He shouted in horror,""Second young master, I''m not that kind of person!"
Although he was a bit attracted to Jing Yiran, he could not ept that kind of thing.
Didn''t Jing Yiran like women? She had never heard that he liked men!
Could it be that he could kill both men and women with his handsome appearance and then eat both men and women?
Oh my God! This was too terrifying!
But ... Should he give in to Jing Yiran?
Chapter 782
Chapter 782
In family MU''s Hospital, Shangguan ning was lying there quietly. Her face was still red and her breathing was even. Except for her heart rate, which was frighteningly low, she seemed to be asleep.
There was no pain, and no other abnormalities.
Jing Yichen soaked the towel in warm water and wiped her hands and face.
He didn''t know when Shangguan ning would wake up. In order to see the changes in her, he had been trying his best to stay by her side.
Jing Rui was still with Jing zhongxiu, and he had no time to take care of his son.
To Jing Yichen, Shangguan ning was more important.
Even if Jing Rui left him, he would still be able to get the best education and grow up quickly with Jing zhongxiu. But if Shangguan ning left him, no one would take care of her.
The door of the ward opened and mu Wensheng and Mu Qing walked in.
Jing Yichen stood up and gave his seat to Grandpa.
Mu Wensheng had checked Shangguan ning''s pulse three times and performed acupuncture on her once to detoxify the toxin, but there was no improvement.
Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun were in the same situation.
But Zheng Lun had less toxins than Zhao Anan and Shangguan ning, so her hibernation was the least serious. Her heart rate and blood flow were simr to that of a normal person, but a little faster than that of Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan.
If one of the three could wake up, it would be Zheng Lun.
Yang Muyan didn''t take Zheng Lun seriously, so she was the least poisoned.
Even so, mu Wensheng did not dare to try to detoxify the poison.
He sat in front of the bed. After checking Shangguan ning''s pulse, he was still frowning.
"This is a new type of poison. I''ve never seen it before. I''vee into contact with simr ones in the past, but after acupuncture, the poison will be expelled from the body. It won''t be like now, where the effect is minimal."
Mu Qing''s face was also grave and anxious.
He had been in contact with simr poisons, so he thought that he could detoxify Zhao Anan after he had analyzed her condition. Unexpectedly, all kinds of antidotes were injected into Zhao Anan''s body, but they had no effect at all!
"The poison has been spreading in their bodies. It''s not impossible to force the poison out, but the vitality of their bodies will be greatly damaged. It will take three to five years to recover. The best way is to use antidotes."
Mu Wensheng could wake them up, but the aftereffects would be obvious.
Unless he had no other choice, he would not force the poison out.
"Grandpa mu, yang Muyan is dead. I''m afraid we can''t get the antidote."
Mu Wensheng and Mu Qing were shocked at the same time. Mu Qing eximed,"What? He''s dead?"
"Yes, I''ve already had someone do an autopsy. It''s indeed yang Muyan."
Jing Yichen didn''t say that yang Muyan was killed by Jing Yiran. What was important was that yang Muyan was already dead.
The She-Devil who had been pestering him was finally dead. Mu Qing was surprised and relieved at the same time.
"If he''s dead, then he''s dead. With her cunn
ing personality, even if she gives us the antidote, it won''t be true. It might even make their situation worse. "
Mu Qing was still scared of yang Muyan''s perverted behavior, and he also wished that she would die soon.
She had put a time bomb on Zhao Anan. Just because he liked Zhao Anan, yang Muyan wanted to blow her up. She was crazy!
"Yang Muyan is dead. I''ll make the antidote myself, but it''ll take a while. I''ll try it first. Fortunately, the poison only made the three of them feel like they were in hibernation, so it didn''t cause much damage. "
Mu Wensheng soon left the hospital and went back to his small courtyard. He started to try to make and test the medicine.
Mu Qing didn''t stay in the hospital. It was enough for Jing Yichen and Mu Tong to be there. What he should do now was to make the antidote for Grandpa.
The poison in Shangguan ning''s body was mild and wouldn''t kill them immediately. But the gentler the poison was, the more vital Qi they would lose and the recovery would be very slow.
Yang Muyan was dead, but her trap was still working.
If she died, there would naturally be nothing to worry about. Even a life and death struggle was a light consequence.
This was the most important reason why Jing Yichen had not killed yang Muyan.
Shangguan ning, Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun, the three living people, fell into a deep sleep.
And Lu was having a life-and-death battle with the "Grim Reaper" that yang Muyan had found. She would lose her life if she was not careful.
Jing Yiran had been attacked wave after wave. Yang Muyan had spent a lot of money to hire arge number of people to attack family Jing.
Jing zhongxiu was the one who was attacked most.
He and Jing Rui were staying at Huang lihan''s ce. There were many people lying in ambush around the vi. Some of them were so impatient that they climbed over the wall and entered the vi, trying to kill Jing zhongxiu and Jing Rui at a close distance.
It might be difficult to kill Jing zhongxiu, but it would be easy to kill a child like Jing Rui.
Jing zhongxiu stood in front of the French window on the second floor of the vi with Jing Rui in his arms. He looked at the Men in ck climbing over the wall one by one in the afterglow of the setting sun and said,""Old Huang, you see, I haven''t fought for a long time. The people in A city seem to have forgotten my fierce reputation."
His tone was calm. Although he was talking to Huang lihan, he was looking at his grandson lovingly.
He loved this grandson of his very much!
Jing Rui looked very much like him. Every time he took Jing Rui out to y, people would know that he was his grandson.
"Really, you have to force me to fight in front of my grandson. I have to win beautifully, or my grandson will definitelyugh at me. He was very smart now, ignorant and fearless. He was curious about everything and very bold! Hahaha, family Jing has found a worthy sessor!"
Huang lihan was speechless at Jing zhongxiu''s endless showing off.
He was Shangguan ning''s uncle and Jing Rui''s granduncle, otherwise Jing zhongxiu would not know how to show off.
Every time Jing Yichen sent Jing Ru
i to Jing zhongxiu''s side, Jing zhongxiu would always act as if he had a grandson in his hands and the world was his. It was as if he was afraid that no one would know that he had a smart grandson.
He clearly remembered that Jing zhongxiu didn''t treat his son like that. They were two extremes!
Maybe it was true. At least Jing zhongxiu loved Jing Rui so much that he didn''t feel tired holding Jing Rui all day. Jing Rui struggled to y by himself, and he finally let go.
Jing zhongxiu had never carried Jing Yichen in his arms. He had always been a strict and cold man. Otherwise, his father-son rtionship with Jing Yichen wouldn''t have been so tense.
Chapter 783: Teaching the little grandson
Chapter 783: Teaching the little grandson
The sun gradually set, and when its golden afterglow waspletely hidden in the dark night, the Men in ck who had rushed into the vi had all fallen silently.
During the entire process, there was not even a single sound, and dozens of people had already lost their lives.
This strange way of death made everyone outside the vi feel terrified.
Some people already had the intention to retreat. Since they had already gotten half of the money, it was fine to give up the remaining half. It was better than losing their lives in a muddle.
It was true that they lived on the edge of a knife, but they also cherished their lives.
Moreover, these days, the brothers had been spreading the news that the employer who hired them had died. Even if theypleted the killing mission, they would not be able to get the remaining half of the money.
The person they were going to kill was Jing zhongxiu!
This man was very famous in A city. He was one of the most influential people in the city. Every year, all the people who tried to assassinate Jing zhongxiu because of the Jing family''s property were all dead.
This time, if it wasn''t for the fact that their employer had offered them too much money, which they couldn''t refuse, they wouldn''t have dared toe here and die!
Moreover, the employer did not just hire eight to ten people, but thousands of them!
Everyone felt that with so many people joining in the attack, they could definitely fish in troubled waters. Even if the mission failed, they would have already received arge sum of money. This mission seemed dangerous, but it was actually very easy!
A few familiar ck-clothed men discussed for a while and decided to retreat.
No one was willing to work for a stranger they had never met. They were just hooligans. They were different from the assassins in the world. Once an assassin took a task, they would do their best toplete it. There was no way they would leave halfway.
It was actuallymon for people like them to take their employer''s money and run away. However, if he really did that, it would be difficult for him to mingle in the underworld in the future. After all, a gangster without a reputation was not a good gangster.
The first group of people who retreated timidly was a dozen. They quickly left Huang lihan''s Vi under the cover of the night.
However, two minutester, a man ran back covered in blood.
"They are all demons! He killed without blinking! In one minute, all 16 of them were dead! I''m the only one who escaped back! We''ve already been surrounded. If we go out, we''ll die!"
Everyone could hear his scream clearly. Everyone felt a chill run down their spine and their bodies!
Those who were hired by yang Muyan to participate in the assassination were actually quite famous in the underworld. They were all ruthless and desperate people who had killed and robbed many people.
However, sixteen of such people were killed in an instant! And they didn''t hear a single sound!
The only one who managed to escape was also scared out of his wits. He trembled and fell to the ground, unconscious.
Thisrge group of people usuallymitted all kinds of evil, but when they were called "demons" by others, when had they ever called other
s "demons"?
It showed how cold and cruel the other party was!
.
There was no light in the vi. Jing zhongxiu was still standing in front of the window with Jing Rui in his arms. Looking at the strange and quiet scene outside, he couldn''t help but chuckle and educate his grandson.
"Ruirui, did you see that? This move was called seizing the initiative. These people were all desperadoes, and only by being more ruthless than them could they be suppressed. That brat who escaped thought he was lucky enough to escape. He didn''t know that I let him go on purpose. Otherwise, who would have tipped off these idiots and told them how powerful your Grandpa is?"
Jing Rui looked at Jing zhongxiu, not fully understanding what he meant. His Grandpa seemed different today.
Huang lihan stood beside Jing zhongxiu and didn''t have the energy toin.
Was family Jing''s way of teaching all so special?
Jing Rui was so young. Did he have to teach him how to kill? This will teach the child the wrong things!
Jing zhongxiu was indeed a great grandpa, but he was not very good at teaching children.
Now he finally understood why Jing Yichen had always been so cold, quiet and emotionless, but so familiar with killing people.
With such a father, it would be very difficult for Jing Yichen to be kind and lively.
Jing zhongxiu ignored Huang lihan''s displeased look and kissed his grandson''s smooth and tender face. Heplimented him,"Ruirui, it seems that you''re not afraid of the dark at all. You''re so obedient even without turning on the lights. Look, so many people have died outside. Don''t you also think that Grandpa has done a good job? The children of family Jing are different. They will be able to defeat everyone in the future! Ruirui is the smartest kid I''ve ever seen, even smarter than your father. You will be in charge of family Jing from now on!"
Fine, as he spoke, he started to show off his grandson again!
Huang lihan shook his head, not knowing whether tough or cry.
He was almost scared to death just now. His small vi was surrounded by thousands of people, and then people kept climbing over the wall to enter. Each of them had a gun in their hands, and their faces were fierce. This scene was too dangerous!
The point was that he could be killed by those people, but Jing Rui could not be harmed!
Huang lihan loved Jing Rui as much as Jing zhongxiu did, and he would protect Jing Rui and make sure that he grew up safe and sound.
Unexpectedly, Jing zhongxiu was well prepared. None of them rushed up to the second floor. They were safe from the beginning to the end.
Huang lihan''s face turned pale after so many people had died. If he had not seen Jing zhongxiu''s ruthlessness twice, he would have passed out at the sight of so many dead people.
He was an honest man to his bones. He had never even killed a chicken in his life, let alone a human!
Of course, being an honest man didn''t mean that he was a good person. Those who broke into his vi deserved to die, and he didn''t have any sympathy for them.
If those people didn''t die, then the three of them would be the ones to die.
Therefore, Huang lihan supported Jing zhongxiu''s decision.
Jing zhon
gxiu was still teaching Jing Rui,""Ruirui, let me teach you another trick. Never be soft-hearted when dealing with your enemies! If you should kill, you should kill. Your father is much better than me in this regard. If my heart was as cruel as his, your grandma would still be alive. She likes children so much, so she would definitely love you very much. "
Jing Yichen''s heart was even colder than his. He was so cold that he could even kill his brother, Jing Yiran, regardless of the blood rtionship.
Jing zhongxiu sounded a little sad. Zhao Qing''s death was a pain in his heart that he did not even dare to touch before, but he could talk about her with Jing Rui in a rxed manner.
Chapter 784: Number one in the world
Chapter 784: Number one in the world
"Look at this group of people, they all want our lives. It''s fine if they want my life, but they dared to have ideas about you. Ruirui must remember, you must get rid of the roots and not have anypassion, otherwise they wille back for revenge one day. "
Jing zhongxiu instructed Jing Rui calmly when he saw the people in the dark start to panic.
Huang lihan couldn''t stand it anymore. He rolled his eyes at Jing zhongxiu and said unhappily, "It''s not good for you to teach your child like this, right? Yichen has been taught to be so cold. Are you going to turn Ruirui into an Ice Mountain too? He doesn''t like to talk, and if you continue to teach him, Ruirui won''t even call him Grandpa!"
It was a little magical. Jing Rui didn''t even call his parents, but every time he saw Jing zhongxiu, he would call him Grandpa, which made Jing zhongxiu so happy that he could walk like the wind.
Jing Rui had never called him "granduncle" before.
Huang lihan had been brooding over this and would teach Jing Rui how to call him "granduncle" whenever he was free.
Jing zhongxiu smiled and held Jing Rui''s hand.""I have been very sessful in educating Yichen, and I am sure that I will be right to teach Jing Rui this way. But I''ve made a lot of improvements. I didn''t talk to Yichen in such a nice way before. It''s not a bad thing for Ruirui to be so cold. Family Jing will be handed over to him in the future, and if he is soft-hearted, he will suffer a lot. "
Huang lihan fell silent at the mention of the hellish family education of family Jing.
Although the education method of family Jing was improved with each generation, the general direction remained the same. They were dedicated to cultivating an all-rounded heir and their training method had been very mature.
In this kind of matter, he indeed had no right to speak.
The fact that family Jing had been able to stand up to this day and be one of the most powerful families in the world proved that they had been training their heirs in the right way.
This had been tested in practice.
Jing Rui was destined to have a bright future. His life was going to be glorious, and the responsibilities and dangers he had to face would be far beyond that of ordinary people.
Huang lihan suddenly felt sorry for the little guy.
He took Jing Rui away from Jing zhongxiu and said softly,""I''d better hug you more when you''re young. Otherwise, when you grow up, you probably won''t let anyone hug you. "
Jing zhongxiu was very upset that Huang lihan had taken his grandson away from him. But he didn''t get Jing Rui back after seeing how much Huang lihan loved Jing Rui.
He began to call his men and give them orders.
Half an hourter, the Men in ck who came had their eyes closed forever, no longer a threat to them.
Jing zhongxiu turned on the lights in the vi and took Huang lihan, who was still holding Jing Rui, to the kitchen on the first floor. He made fish soup for Jing Rui.
Huang lihan''s servant had gone back to his hometown for the funeral, so he hadn''te to work for the past two days.
Jing zhongxiu t
ook on the responsibility of a chef. He was good at cooking and Jing Rui and Huang lihan were always waiting for him to cook.
Lu and the Grim Reaper were standing face to face in the messy living room. Both of them had their guns pointed at each other''s foreheads. The atmosphere was strange and tense.
The Grim Reaper was bleeding in many ces, and his high-quality human skin mask had fallen to the ground, revealing his true appearance.
He was a very handsome man with long eyebrows, deep eyes, and a nose like all Europeans and Americans. It was so tall that it made Asians jealous.
His skin was originally very fair, but because of the excessive blood loss, he was as pale as a vampire who had not seen the sun for a long time.
Lu was also in a bad shape with blood on her body, but her wound was much smaller and she looked much better than the Grim Reaper.
After an unknown period of time, the shock and fear in death''s eyes dissipated a little. He said in broken English,""This is impossible! Your body isn''t human at all!"
Lu looked at him quietly and said,""Same to you. Your perception is not something a human can have. You can predict the future. This is a superpower that is stronger than my own."
Yes, the power of the "death god" shocked Lu. He could predict the future, which could only be seen in novels and TV shows! She had never encountered such a thing in real life!
No wonder he could escape unscathed every time he killed someone!
He was really not far from being a ''God''!
The Grim Reaper''s face was extremely dark. Even if he could predict the future, he still could not kill Lu!
Her overall strength was too strong. Speed, strength, perception, and endurance were all far superior to his! The various functions of her body hadpletely broken through the scope of human beings!
In their duels, Lu had hurt him many times in a row, and he had only hurt her once!
This difference in strength was already enough to exin the problem.
His foresight of the future was fragmented, and most of the time, it would only appear when he was in danger. He could not predict the entire future!
Moreover, the future was always changing. If he made a change in his behavior, the future results would also change.
So he could not predict when and where Lu would shoot.
Every time, he would brush past the bullets and avoid being hit. But he was not as fast as Lu. He had been shot several times and would bleed to death if he was not treated.
In the face of absolute power, even if he could predict the future, he was powerless to change it!
Death couldn''t ept the fact that he was defeated by the second in the world!
He wanted to die together with Lu!
Lu could tell what he was thinking. She said,""You can''t kill me. My genes have been through a high-intensity modification, and my muscle density is much higher than normal people. This allows me to be as fast as lightning in a short time. Even if you shoot me at close range, I can still Dodge it. I
f you don''t believe me, we''ll shoot at the same time. Let''s see who dies first. "
"Grim Reaper" had always thought that his supernatural powers were very powerful. He felt that the title of Grim Reaper was very suitable for him, because he seemed to be sent to earth by God to harvest human lives.
However, Lu today made him realize that his supernatural ability was not that great. Angel, who was ranked second in the world, had been gically modified!
In this contest, he had lost the title of number one in the world. At the same time, he was about to lose his life!
He had already seen his end through time and space.
Chapter 785
Chapter 785
The Grim Reaper was dead.
He was killed by Lu''s gun.
It didn''t take long for the world of assassins to know that Angel had killed the Grim Reaper. The ranking of the assassins had not changed for five years. Everyone''s strength was fixed at a level, and the ranking was based on very scientific evidence, so it would not change easily. Unless one of the assassins died, the people below would automatically move up one rank.
Angel was able to kill the Grim Reaper, which meant that she was more powerful than the Grim Reaper. The first ce of the Grim Reaper was indeed built from piles of bones. He had killed more people than Angel, but he was not as strong as Angel.
The rumor was finally confirmed. From then on, Angel became the world''s number one killer.
The reward for her help was rising steadily, and it had already reached a high price that made people flinch.
However, ever since she killed the "Grim Reaper", she no longer took action. No one could ask her to do anything.
In family MU''s Hospital, Lu was lying on the operating table. Mu Qing was cutting open her healed skin with a scalpel and taking out the bullets in her body.
"You''re healing too fast. The bullets have grown into your flesh. The flesh around the bullet is already worn out and the inmmation is very serious. The surrounding flesh needs to be cut off!"
"I''m fine. Cut it. "
Lu did not care much about the operation. She had been injected with anesthetic and could not feel any pain.
"Where is Jing Yiran?"
Mu Qing took out the bullet for Lu carefully and cleaned her wound. "Don''t worry about him. He''s very capable. He even killed yang Muyan! She was so hot that she looked like a corpse. I don''t think yang Muyan''s mother would recognize her!"
"Yang Muyan is dead?"
That was good. Lu was also afraid of people like yang Muyan. She was not good at scheming, but yang Muyan was very cunning.
Mu Qing was wiping the blood off Lu''s wound with a cotton ball. Seeing her blood, an idea came to his mind.
Lu''s blood contained the most unique virus in the world. It was very corrosive and could devour both normal and abnormal cells in the human body. So, could she make an antidote with her blood?
Mu Qing couldn''t control himself as soon as the idea came to his mind.
After getting Lu''s permission, he took 10 ml of blood and went to mu Wensheng after the operation.
Mu Wensheng also felt that this might be a huge breakthrough.
Two dayster, mu Wensheng''s antidote was sessfully developed. The effect of the antidote on animals was very good, and the side effects were minimized.
He came to the hospital with the medicine and checked the three of them again. Then he said to Zheng Jing,"Because only 10 ml of Lu''s blood was extracted, the medicine is limited. If we want to see the effect, we''d better detoxify Zheng Lun first. The risk should be low and it would not cause too much damage to her body. If there''s no problem with the medicine, she''ll wake up soon. "
Zheng Lun had been in a deep sleep for the past few days. Her parents came to visit her every day and Zheng Jing stayed by her side.
Out of the three of them, she was the one with the least amount of poison and the one with the highest chan
ce of waking up.
If the amount of the drug was limited, it would be the most reasonable to use it on Zheng Lun.
It meant that Zheng Lun would be the test subject, but she would also benefit the most if it was sessful.
Zheng Jing believed in the old man''s medical skills. Mu Wensheng would not have tried it if he was not 99% sure. His medical ethics were as good as his medical skills.
"Grandpa mu, please just give my sister the medicine! It''s a good thing that she took the medicine first!"
.
Zheng Jing had been staying by Zheng Lun''s side in the hospital for several days. He looked tired, but his eyes were bright and he looked determined.
With mu Wensheng''s help, Zheng Lun would wake up for sure!
His sister had been in a deep sleep for a few days. Every day was a torture for him.
Mu Wensheng had thought that if Zheng Jing didn''t agree, he would ask Mu Qing to persuade him. He didn''t expect Zheng Jing to trust his medical skills so much.
"Okay, I will make sure that your sister is safe. I will return you the original Zheng Lun!" He said with a smile on his tired face.
The detoxification went very smoothly. After Zheng Lun was injected with the antidote and mu Wensheng performed acupuncture on her, her body was recovering quickly.
His heartbeat was no longer slow, and the flow of his blood had gradually returned to normal.
Zheng Jing stayed by Zheng Lun''s side all the time. When the sky turned bright, he fell asleep on Zheng Lun''s bed.
A gentle and familiar voice woke him up from his light sleep.
"Big brother ..."
Zheng Jing looked up suddenly and saw Zheng Lun''s confused and delicate face. Her eyes were still as misty as before, beautiful and full of vitality.
"Lun, you are awake!"
Zheng Jing was both surprised and happy. He went up to hold Zheng Lun''s little face and said with red eyes, "You''ve been unconscious for five days and five nights. I was so worried! Do you feel ufortable anywhere? Does your body hurt? Did you have any nightmares?"
His series of questions made Zheng Lun calm down.
He had been unconscious for five days and five nights?
In such a short time?
Why did it feel like a long time had passed? it didn''t feel like five days, but five years?
Zheng Lun didn''t know what had happened. She felt that her memory was getting blurry. She couldn''t remember anything before she passed out. But she had a vivid impression of Zheng Jing, who she loved deeply.
"Brother, I''m so thirsty. I want to drink water."
"Alright, alright, I''ll get you some water!"
Zheng Jing let go of her immediately and went to get her a cup of warm water.
Zheng Lun didn''t feel better until she had drunk two big sses of water. But her throat was so painful that she couldn''t even speak.
"Brother, my throat hurts. What''s going on?" she asked.
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly coughed violently, and then coughed out arge mouthful of ck blood.
Zheng Jing was shocked and called Mu Qing immediately."Lun is awake. She is coughing blood!"
It only took Mu Qing one minute to get to Zheng Lun''s room from Zhao Anan ''s.
Soon, mu Wensheng also arrived.
He took a look at the blood that Zheng Lun had coughed out and said with relief, "That''s a good thing. Most of the poison in her body has been expelled. This is the blood clot that the poison has umted in her internal organs."
He put his hand on Zheng Lun''s wrist and checked her pulse."Girl, do you feel ufortable anywhere? Or do you feel that there''s something wrong with your body?"
"My throat hurts and then ... I seem to have forgotten a lot of things," Zheng Lun said in a low voice.
Chapter 786: You are my heart
Chapter 786: You are my heart
Mu Wensheng and the other two were stunned when they heard her say that she had forgotten many things.
Memory loss?
It was normal for her throat to hurt. After being unconscious for so many days, the poison had been acting up. It was normal for her to be thirsty.
But how could there be a problem with her memory?
Mu Wensheng''s face was a little serious,"what have you forgotten?" You don''t remember Mu Qing and Zheng Jing?"
It was the first time that mu Wensheng had met Zheng Lun, so he didn''t know whether he could remember her or not.
"I remember all of them, but my impression of doctor mu is a little vague. I remember my brother very clearly. I don''t remember anything that happened before I fainted ... I feel like a long time has passed. My brother just said that I slept for five days, but I feel like it''s been years. "
Fortunately, he didn''t lose all his memories, only a part.
Mu Wensheng was slightly relieved.
This kind of memory loss was actually amon urrence in medicine. Most patients would remember the people and things that they had a deep impression of, and would not remember the things that they had a shallow impression of.
This was a bit like an ordinary person who would not remember a small thing that happened a few years ago after many years.
"This should be the side effect of the poison. You should rest well first. Let me know when you find other symptoms."
Mu Wensheng said and walked out with Mu Qing.
"Go find Lu now. We need her to give Zhao Anan and Shangguan ning 100ml of blood each!"
"Alright, I''ll go find her immediately! But, Grandpa, is it possible that Anan and the others have lost their memories too?"
Mu Qing''s brows were tightly furrowed and he was extremely worried.
"That''s very likely, so we have to be quick. The longer we dy, the more memories they will lose! Also, the amount of toxins in their bodies is at least twice as much as that in Zheng Lun ''S. I''m afraid that their memory loss is also twice as bad as Zheng Lun'' s!"
Jing Yichen got to know that Zheng Lun had woken up and had slight memory loss.
He was sitting next to Shangguan ning and was reading a book to her in a deep voice that was as pleasant as a piano.
She had always said that his voice wasparable to the best broadcaster and it was a pleasure to listen to him.
When he was free, he would hold her in his arms and read the newspaper to her in a low voice.
Every time this happened, she would be very happy and very quiet.
She liked everything about him, especially his voice.
She had personally admitted that the first time she saw him, she was not touched by his handsome and perfect face, but by his voice. The moment she heard his voice, her heart suddenly sped up.
Now, even if she was unconscious, her body would still have a reaction when she heard his voice. Even the device on her wrist showed that her heart would beat faster every time she heard his voice.
Jing Yichen felt that even if Shangguan ning had lost her memory, she would still remember him. Even if she couldn''t remember his face, she would still remember his voice.
It didn''t matter to Jing Yichen whether he had lost his memory or not.
Their lov
e was unforgettable. Even if they had forgotten each other, they would still be attracted to each other and fall in love with each other.
What was more, they still had Jing Rui, who was the fruit of their love and the best proof of their happiness.
Jing Yichen finished reading the short article and looked at Shangguan ning''s beautiful face. He took her hands and kissed her forehead.
"Ning, will you forget me?"
Shangguan ning was still sleeping and didn''t respond.
However, the devices that measured her heartbeat and blood pressure had slight changes.
Jing Yichen looked at the curves that represented the life of his beloved woman and smiled.
The morning sun shone on his face, covering it with a gentle Halo. His smile broke the ice of winter and melted the indifference and arrogance on his face.
His handsome face made even the rising sun feel inferior.
"It seems like you won''t forget, baby."
Among the three unconscious people, only Shangguan ning''s vital signs had changed slightly. Zheng Lun and Zhao Anan''s vital signs were stable. No matter whose voice or what voice they heard, their heartbeat and blood pressure would not change.
As for Shangguan ning, her heart would beat faster every time she heard his voice. Although it was not much, the fluctuation was so obvious that even mu Wensheng found it unbelievable.
Mu Wensheng attributed this phenomenon to: Shangguan ning had the most primitive human reaction to Jing Yichen''s voice.
To put it simply, the darling Shangguan ning was naturally attracted to Jing Yichen''s voice.
Jing Yichen was very proud of this.
His woman, even in a deep sleep, still had feelings for him. This was his greatest happiness!
He soaked the towel and started to wipe Shangguan ning''s face, which he had to do every day.
He had even brought Shangguan ning''s skincare products from home. He would apply moisturizer on her face every day after he wiped her face.
Although Shangguan ning usually didn''t wear any makeup, she was still a woman who cared about her skin condition.
Jing Yichen was a good husband. He cared about everything that his wife cared about and was willing to do some small things for her.
Jing Yichen got a call from Mu Qing before he finished applying the moisturizer.
"Master Jing, that bastard Jing Yiran won''t let me take Lu''s blood. Without her blood, the antidote''s effect would be greatly reduced! Come and help, you''re the only one who can control him!"
"Alright, I''ll be there in a while."
Jing Yichen replied calmly and hung up the phone. He continued to apply the moisturizer on Shangguan ning''s face.
He kissed her lips that were still red even when she was asleep and said in a low voice,""Ning, I''m going out for a while. I''ll be back soon. If everything goes well, you might wake up tomorrow. Don''t forget me, do you hear me?"
He raised his head to look at Shangguan ning''s heartbeat and found that her heart was beating slightly again.
He smiled and rewarded his wife with a kiss."Good girl!"
In Jing Yiran''s small vi, he was confronting Mu Qing angrily.
"Why did you take my woman''s blood! Aren''t you the best doctor? And old man mu, wasn''t he
a Divine Doctor? You can''t even concoct an antidote, and you still have the nerve to call yourself a Divine Doctor? You even need human blood to concoct the medicine. Are you a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor or a wizard?"
Mu Qing was so angry that his face turned red.
Jing Yiran had said that he was not good at medicine, but he had even ndered mu Wensheng! How could he endure this!
He stopped giving Jing Yiran the injection and gave him a hard punch.
Jing Yiran didn''t expect that Mu Qing, who never got into a fight with anyone, would hit him without saying a word. He was caught off guard and got a nosebleed.
Chapter 787: Peerless beauty in the human world
Chapter 787: Peerless beauty in the human world
Mu Qing had never liked to use violence, as he felt that it was not gentlemanly of him. He was a doctor and could easily defeat all his opponents with needles and medicine. That was why he had never fought with anyone bare-handed.
But someone dared to insult his Grandpa, whom he respected the most. He felt that all the blood in his body was rushing to his head and he wanted to strangle Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran stumbled back a few steps and Mu Qing went up to him and started to punch and kick him.
"You''re the Magus! My grandfather is a godly doctor, and I''m the best doctor! I was the one who took out the bullet from your head! You were unconscious for a month, and it was my grandfather who spent so much energy to help you with acupuncture and bring you back from the Grim Reaper! You dare to scold my grandfather? I''ll beat you to death!"
In fact, Jing Yiran didn''t mean to scold mu Wensheng. He admired mu Wensheng and was scared of this fierce old man.
He was just angry just now and spoke without thinking.
But if Jing Yiran was asked to admit his mistake, he would never admit it, even if Mu Qing beat him to death.
He had always been like this when he was with Jing Yichen. He would rather die than surrender. He would rather have Jing Yichen break his ribs and beat him to a pulp.
He had bowed to Jing Yichen, but it didn''t mean that he would do the same to others, even if he was the one in the wrong.
"You''re here to draw my woman''s blood, do you think you''re in the right? It''s still not certain who will be the one to die today! I don''t know how to control my strength. When you be disabledter, don''t ask my brother to teach me a lesson! It''s no use even if hees today. We can''t lose a single drop of Lu''s blood!"
Jing Yiran roared as he fought with Mu Qing.
The two of them fought from the living room to the kitchen, then from the kitchen to the bedroom.
When Jing Yichen entered the vi, it was already in chaos.
"All of you, stop!"
Jing Yichen''s shout stopped both Mu Qing and Jing Yiran.
Mu Qing''s hair was in a mess, and his shirt was missing. There were bruises on his face and blood on the corner of his lips. Apparently, he had been hit hard by Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran wasn''t any better. His clothes were crumpled and his cheeks were swollen. Even his peach-shaped eyes were bleeding.
But Jing Yiran''s injuries were lighter than Mu Qing ''s. After all, he had fought more than Mu Qing and knew how to attack and protect himself better. She had been beaten by Jing Yichen for so many years and it was not for nothing.
Jing Yichen frowned at the sight of them.
But he was not in the mood to care about their fight. He went straight to the point and asked Jing Yiran, "Where''s Lu?"
"I''ve hidden her! You can''t be so cruel. She''s innocent and doesn''t have any schemes. She''ll give you anything you want. She''ll even agree to your request for her blood! My heart aches for her, I don''t agree! If you take so much blood, her body will be in trouble!"
When Lu was given a tube of blood, although it was only 10 ml, Jing Yiran still felt sorry for her.
Her blood was different from ordinary people ''s. Once it was taken aw
ay, the blood produced would be infected with the virus. The virus content in her body would increase rapidly, and her body temperature would drop. The next blood transfusion would have to be done earlier.
Mu Qing''s anger had dissipated after he had beaten Jing Yiran.
He actually felt guilty for taking Lu''s blood. If he was in Lu''s position, he would also feel bad for Zhao Anan.
However, this was life-saving blood. No matter how much heartache he felt, he had to draw it out!
.
"Don''t exaggerate. I''ll only take 200 ml. It won''t affect her body much! You were fine when you donated 800ml of blood to Lust time. 200ml is the most basic amount of blood you can give. Your life will not be in danger!"
"She is different from me! It''s not like you don''t know that her body is full of viruses! No, I won''t let you guys do it!"
"At most, my grandfather and I will change her blood again! I don''t need you to pay for it!" Mu Qing was very anxious. He wanted to get the blood as soon as possible and then make the antidote so that Zhao Anan could wake up as soon as possible. Otherwise, she might forget about him after sleeping for so long.
"No!"
Jing Yiran didn''t agree. He wasn''t so noble as to sacrifice his own woman to save another woman. Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan wouldn''t die anyway, and Mu Qing had said that both of them might lose their memories.
This is just a small matter!
Didn''t Zheng Lun remember most of the things?
The antidote could be developed slowly. With mu Wensheng''s profound medical knowledge, it would not take long for him to make the antidote. Why did he have to draw Lu''s blood?
Jing Yichen looked at Jing Yiran and said, "Lu''s blood must be taken, but we willpensate her. With her physical condition, drawing 200 ml of blood would not be too much of a problem. I''m not here to ask for your permission, I''m just here to tell you. "
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Just like Mu Qing, Jing Yichen was also very anxious to get the antidote as soon as possible. Shangguan ning had been in a deep sleep the whole time, so no one knew what would happen to her.
As for Lu, he could find her.
Mu Qing grabbed the clothes that Jing Yiran had taken off and red at him. Then he left with Jing Yichen.
He had to follow Jing Yichen to find Lu and draw her blood.
Jing Yiran sat down on the sofa, feeling extremely sad.
After a long while, he took a bottle of red wine and walked out of the door.
Because yang Muyan''s men were still harassing Jing Yiran, Jing Yichen''s men didn''t leave. Instead, they stayed around the vi to keep Jing Yiran safe.
Luo Hao was the main person in charge.
Jing Yiran walked out of the vi and found Luo Hao in the corner of the garden. Then they sat down on the ground, shoulder to shoulder.
Seeing Jing Yiran''s sad face, Luo Hao''s heart started to beat fast.
He looked so beautiful even when he was sad!
Peerless beauty in the human world!
Uh ... Although this term might not be very suitable for a man, Luo Hao could not find any other w
ords to describe him at this moment!
The surprise in Luo Hao''s eyes was too obvious. Jing Yiran put his arms around his shoulders and asked with squinted eyes,"Am I not very good looking?"
Luo Hao nodded subconsciously. Then he realized that he had admitted Jing Yiran''s beauty. He shook his head in fear.
Jing Yiran didn''t think so. He knew how beautiful he was. Men and women always liked to stare at him, and many of them were even mesmerized by him.
Heughed at himself and said with a disappointed tone,""What''s the use of being good looking? I can''t even protect the person I want to protect, am I very ipetent?"
Chapter 788-meeting too late
Chapter 788-meeting toote
Luo Hao felt very ufortable being held by Jing Yiran, but his heart ached when he saw Jing Yiran''s sad face.
"I don''t think you''re useless. I think ... Second young master is a good man," he said seriously.
He was speaking the truth.
When he was with Jing Yichen, he didn''t know Jing Yiran very well. He was just like everyone else, judging Jing Yiran from his appearance. She just thought that he was a yboy who loved to fight for the inheritance with Jing Yichen.
But he had been with Jing Yiran for the past few days and Jing Yiran was a Chatterbox who liked to chat with him.
From his words, Luo Hao knew that he had misunderstood Jing Yiran.
He wasn''t ignorant. He was trying his best to learn and improve so that he could surpass Jing Yichen.
Unfortunately, Jing Yichen was not someone that could be surpassed by hard work alone.
Jing Yichen had been raised to be the heir of family Jing. He had suffered a lot since he was little and all his potential had been developed.
When a person''s intelligencepletely overpowered you, and he worked a thousand times harder than you, he could only be looked up to, and could never be surpassed.
So no matter how hard Jing Yiran tried, he would never be able to catch up with Jing Yichen.
However, he still didn''t give up. His tenacity was beyond imagination. He was simply unyielding and tenacious.
Luo Hao could see Jing Yiran charging himself up every day. He was learning foreignnguages, guns andplicated programming. Jing Yichen had learned all of them when he was ten, while Jing Yiran was just a kid who only knew how to fight with his brother.
"Second young master, you''re also working hard, and that''s enough. Young master ... I''m afraid there aren''t many people in the world who can surpass him. "
Luo Hao used to address Jing Yichen as "master Jing," which was a unique form of address for Jing Yichen, while Jing Yiran was called "second master" or "second master Jing."
But calling him master Jing would hurt Jing Yiran''s self-esteem, so Luo Hao changed the way he addressed him. In front of Jing Yiran, he always called him "first master" and "second master."
When Jing Yiran was frustrated or depressed, few people woulde tofort him.
When Zhang Rong was alive, she had never cared about his feelings, nor encouraged orforted him.
Luo Hao had been giving Jing Yiran a warm feeling that he had never felt before.
It was as if he had found a confidant. He would talk to Luo Hao about some things that Lu could not understand. He had chatted with Luo Hao for two hours yesterday!
Jing Yiran''s wounded heart was soothed by Luo Hao''s words. He patted Luo Hao''s shoulder and said with emotion,"Little Luo, why do I feel like you and I are so closely connected? I really regret not meeting you earlier!"
Heart to heart? Regret not having met earlier?
Luo Hao''s heart began to race!
Second young master ... What did he mean?
Was Jing Yiran saying that he liked him too?
Aiya, my heart is about to jump out. What should I do, what should I do!
Should he agree, agree, or agree?
No, no, Jing Yiran
seemed to like women! He had been living with Lu for a long time and they were getting married!
How could he be the third party who destroyed other people''s rtionships!
But he wanted to see Jing Yiran more and more, and his heart was beating so fast that he could not control it.
God, why did the heavens torture him like this!
He used to like women too. When did he like men? Could it be that he was actually gay? No, he was a man!
Jing Yiran had no idea how much trouble he had brought to Luo Hao with his inappropriate words.
He was an expert in love and could say anything mushy. Now that he was with Lu, Lu was immune to any words he said. He had nothing to hide. He did not even use his brain when he talked to Luo Hao.
Jing Yiran picked up the wine and took two gulps."Argh! Cool! I''m still more suited to a carefree life of drinking today. In the past, I was already unable to breathe under the pressure of my brother. In the future, I won''t treat him as a pressure mountain anymore. I should treat him as a backer! He''s so powerful and omnipotent. It''d be a waste if I didn''t make use of him! It was not embarrassing for a younger brother to rely on his older brother! Hahaha, little Luo, what do you think of my idea?"
Second young master, you''re changing your attitude a little too fast. My brain is slow and can''t keep up!
Luo Hao cursed in his heart.
Weren''t they just talking about love just now? Why did she suddenly start praising the young master!
And why was Jing Yiran holding him so tightly?
If he got drunkter, he wouldn''t ... Force himself on him, right?
Oh my God!
This, this, this ... Isn''t this a little too fast?!
"Little Luo, why is your face so red? Was he sick? You have a fever?"
Jing Yiran touched Luo Hao''s forehead worriedly when he saw Luo Hao''s face turning red.
"Eh, it''s not hot! Why are you blushing all of a sudden? Hahaha, don''t tell me you''re embarrassed by this young master''s unparalleled beauty?"
Jing Yiran seemed to have discovered something new. He kept staring at Luo Hao''s handsome face and couldn''t helpughing when he saw that his face was getting better.
"Aiyo, my little Luo is in love with me! I also like you very much!"
Jing Yiran was not embarrassed at all. It was not the first time that he had been liked by a man. He had had many male ssmates chasing after him when he was in school.
This was not a surprise to Jing Yiran.
He was too beautiful. When he was young, his masculine features were not obvious, and even if he wore men''s clothes, he was often mistaken for a girl.
"Come,e,e. Have a sip of red wine to calm your nerves. This young master is indeed a person who is loved by everyone!"
Jing Yiran didn''t feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he felt very proud. He forced the wine into Luo Hao''s hand, forcing him to drink.
Luo Hao looked at the bottle of red wine in his hand, frowning as he thought about whether he should drink it or not. Jing Yiran had drunk directly from the bottle just now. If he drank from the bottle, he would be kissing Jing Yiran indirectly!
Jing Yiran didn''t know what he was thinking. He thought
that he was worried that drinking would cause trouble. So he put his arms around Luo Hao''s neck and said with a wicked smile, "It''s okay, you can drink it. I won''t tell my brother! Yang Muyan was dead, and those who came to cause trouble were just small fries, nothing to be afraid of! Don''t worry and drink. If you drink too much, this young master will personally carry you home to sleep!"
He still wanted to sleep?
Luo Hao''s hands trembled in fear and he almost threw the bottle away!
He hadn''t thought about this yet, so he had to take it slow!
He put the bottle back into Jing Yiran''s hand and ran away with a red face!
Chapter 789: Marrying a top assassin (1)
Chapter 789: Marrying a top assassin (1)
It didn''t take Jing Yichen much effort to find Lu. Although Jing Yiran had said that he had hidden her away, Lu didn''t want to be hidden by him. So she contacted Jing Yichen and asked for blood.
Her blood worked, which made Lu very happy.
She had always felt that she was full of viruses. They made her strong, but also turned her into a non-human.
These viruses represented her unbearable past and her childhood that she could not look back on. This was caused by her parents.
She hated the virus in her body.
Now that they could be used to save Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan, she felt that even the sun was so warm and lovely.
Mu Qing stopped after 200ml. Lu asked him,"Is this enough blood? If it''s not enough, you can smoke more!"
Mu Qing''s face twitched."Don''t do that. Jing Yiran will kill me if he finds out."
He pointed to the wound on his face and the torn shirt and said,""Look, how ruthless he is! I almost disfigured myself! An ''an might have lost her memory, and if I disfigure her, she won''t recognize me when she wakes up!"
A rare smile appeared on Lu''s face and she said in a gentle tone,""I apologize to you on his behalf. He was too worried about me, that''s why he hit you."
When Jing Yiran heard that her blood had been taken to cure Shangguan ning and the others, he turned against her and hid her away, not allowing her to donate any more blood.
He was the only one who would stupidly feel heartache for her body and not bear to let her shed a drop of blood.
Mu Qing was a bit surprised when he saw the smile on Lu''s face, which was unique to girls who were in love.
Lu the robot also realized that Jing Yiran was really capable to be so sweet and gentle when he was in love.
He shook his head and left with Jing Yichen with the precious 200ml of blood.
Lu went back to her and Jing Yiran''s Vi after Mu Qing and Jing Yichen left.
As soon as she returned, she ran into Luo Hao, who was walking out with a red face.
When Luo Hao saw her, he was slightly stunned. Then, he sped up and left. He was so fast that it was as if she was some kind of dangerous beast.
Lu was confused. She said to Jing Yiran, who was walking towards her with a bottle of wine, "What''s wrong with him? Are you drunk?"
Jing Yiran shook his head and raised his eyebrows."Luo hasn''t touched a single drop of wine. He is drunk!"
Lu looked confused. She had no idea what Jing Yiran was talking about.
Jing Yiran didn''t care if she understood him or not. He threw the bottle away and lifted Lu''s hands to check the blood vessels on her arms.
As expected, there was an inconspicuous red dot on it. It was a needle-sized dot.
He kissed Lu''s arm gently and then took her into his arms."Silly girl, does it hurt?"
"It doesn''t hurt."
It was really nothing for Lu to be injected with a needle and draw her blood. She did not even make a sound when a bullet was embedded in her flesh.
"But I''m in pain. My heart hurts."
Jing Yiran''s voice was low and there was obvious concern in his tone.
"Haven''t you always be
en cold? Why was he still so kind as to donate blood to save people? It''s better for you to be a little colder in the future. Otherwise, I won''t be at ease. "
"It''s just a little blood. Shangguan ning ... Is very good to me. She is a good person. "
.
Lu was cold, of course. She didn''t care about other people''s lives, but Shangguan ning was important to her and she couldn''t be hurt.
"Aiyo, you''re still too young, my Lu! Shangguan ning is not a kind person. She is quite scary when she is angry. Look, the scar on my hand was caused by her. She is a dog and she is very fierce!"
Oh, it''s probably because you''ve been singing in the past."|You teased her and she retaliated!"
Lu said this calmly and did not seem to be unhappy at all.
But Jing Yiran felt a little guilty.| She had almost lost her life several times in the scenes of Shangguan ning.
He quickly changed the topic, picked Lu up and walked into the vi.""What do you want to eat for lunch? I''ll make it for you! My cooking skills are pretty good now. I even learned a new dish yesterday. Do you want to try it?"
"Alright!"
Lu was never picky about food. Jing Yiran''s cooking was getting better and better, and he could always fill her stomach.
"I want to eat meat. Beef is the best. It provides a lot of energy, so I won''t feel hungry."
"Alright, I''ll cook a beef banquet today! I don''t know if there''s enough beef at home. If there''s not enough, I''ll get little Luo to buy it! This kid is quick and reliable, and the men trained by my brother are really useful. I''m thinking, should I snatch him from my brother?"
"He''s willing to follow you?" Lu was a bit confused. As far as she knew, Jing Yichen''s men were all very loyal and would not betray him easily.
"Haha, you don''t have to worry about that! My face can attract both men and women, it''s not a problem to seduce the innocent little Luo! But will Jing Yichene after me if he knows that I have stolen his woman?"
Jing Yiran was in a good mood. He carried Lu into the house and started to prepare food.
In order to make sure Lu could eat well, he had bought all kinds of ovens and pressure cookers, which made it very convenient to stew meat.
The lunch was very sumptuous, and Lu was very full and happy.
After she finished her meal, she was munching on a bright red apple, her little face stained with apple juice.
Jing Yiran was wiping her face with a wet tissue when he kissed her.
After the kiss, he picked Lu up and walked out.
Lu was munching on an Apple in his arms and asked,""Do you want to take me out to y?"
"y? Oh, no, baby, we''re going out for business!"
"Kill?"
Jing Yiran red at her and said,"what business is this?" You''re not allowed to take the risk of killing people in the future, do you hear me? Anyway, you''re the world''s number one assassin now. You don''t need to climb up. Just be my woman and bear my children!"
"But I might not be able to give birth to a child."
"Who said that! How do you know if you can''t give birth to a child without trying?"
Jing Yiran suddenly thought of a possibility. He looked
at Lu with a dangerous look. "You''ve had a child with someone else before?"
Lu widened her eyes and shook her head."No! No one has given birth to my children!"
"Yes, I didn''t think so." Jing Yiran rxed.
"I''ve crushed the organ where a man gives birth to a child. It''s a man''s weakest spot. When you don''t have a weapon, it''s the easiest to win by attacking it."
Jing Yiran felt a chill down his spine and shivered.
Would he be crushed by Lu in the future?
To marry the world''s number one assassin, his courage could be applied for a Guinness World Record!
Chapter 790: Marrying a top assassin (2)
Chapter 790: Marrying a top assassin (2)
Lu was put into the car by Jing Yiran and then the car sped off.
When they arrived, Lu got out of the car and saw that it was the Civil Affairs Bureau.
"You want to marry me?"
"What else? If I don''t marry you, who should I marry? Little Luo? Same-sex marriage is not allowed in the country!"
Jing Yiran was all smiles. He took out his household register, ID card and Lu''s household register and ID card, and led her into the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Lu''s household register was registered for her by Jing zhongxiu a long time ago, and the name on it was Chi Lu Qianqian, her real name.
She used to like her name very much, but ever since she found out that she was a test subject for her parents, she never used her real name again.
Moreover, she was an assassin, so she couldn''t reveal her true identity most of the time. She had many ID cards, all with different names, from different countries, and they were all real. These were all done for her by the assassin organization to make it easier for her toplete her tasks.
Jing Yiran also thought that "Lu" sounded cuter. It didn''t matter what her name was, as long as he was married to Lu.
The wedding process was rtively simple. It was just that there was a little problem during the photo shoot.
Lu had not taken any pictures since she became a killer. Because taking photos would expose her identity, it was a huge risk, so she never took photos.
The photos of Angel that were circting on the inte were also taken from the surveince video. Most of them were blurry. Even if there were some clear photos, they were all of her beautiful face with a mask on. She waspletely different from her cold and indifferent face.
So when the staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau asked Lu to sit next to Jing Yiran and take pictures, her first reaction was to refuse.
"I don''t want to take pictures!"
The people at the Civil Affairs Bureau were very knowledgeable. Some young couples would be happy when they came to register their marriage. Some woulde crying, and some would be in a dilemma from morning to night! They had seen all kinds of weirdos!
The other party didn''t even lift his eyelids and said indifferently,""We''re not marrying this couple, next couple!"
Jing Yiran threw a displeased look at the staff."Who said we''re not getting married? Let''s get married! You can just shoot!"
As he spoke, he pulled Lu to his side, pressed her shoulder and made her sit down. Then he sat down beside her and smiled.
The photographer was an old woman who had been divorced. She was not very friendly to all the young men and women who came to get married, especially someone as handsome as Jing Yiran. Lu, however, looked very reluctant. She was so jealous that she wished they would not get married.
She took her time and took a long time before she was done taking the photo.
Jing Yiran had been in a good mood when he came to get the marriage certificate with Lu, but this old woman had ruined his good mood.
He gritted his teeth in anger and called Jing Yichen as soon as he left the Civil Affairs Bureau. He said in a righteous tone,"Brother, the one who took the photo at the Civil Affairs Bureau is a nun called miejue. Quickly rece her. I don''t like her!"
Even a calm person like Jing Yichen was startled by him. He didn''t unde
rstand what he was up to.
When did their rtionship reach such a level? What was with Jing Yiran''s tone?
Besides, he didn''t run the Civil Affairs Bureau. He couldn''t just change the person if he wanted to!
"What nonsense are you causing this time?!"
Jing Yichen''s voice was cold and emotionless, but he sounded like a strict elder brother who was lecturing his own brother.
"I''m not fooling around. I''ve already registered our marriage. Oh, right, right, right. She''s your sister-inw now!"
"But the photographer was so mean to your sister-inw. He was so arrogant. I went there happily, but I came back so angry that my lungs almost exploded. You are my brother, and your sister-inw even gave 100ml of blood to your woman a few hours ago. You won''t let them be bullied, will you?"
Jing Yichen was almost driven crazy by Jing Yiran.
What brother and sister! He was really thick-skinned! Lu''s blood had been taken from him in the morning, but he had refused to take it. In the afternoon, he had ordered him around like a real brother.
It had only been one afternoon, but there was a strange feeling that Jing Yiran''s soul had been reced.
Jing Yichen''s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, but Jing Yiran was still talking on the other end of the phone.
"That old woman is so irresponsible! Do you think it''s easy to get married? Lu is just not used to taking photos. The people at the Civil Affairs Bureau should encourage this shy bride!"
"We''re going to get married, not get a divorce. Your face is longer than a donkey ''s, it''s so annoying! Her photography skills are so bad. I''m so good-looking, but I''m so ugly in her photos! They don''t even know how to take photos. How did the Civil Affairs Bureau find them ..."
"Alright, I got it!"
Jing Yichen hung up the phone in a hurry, with beads of sweat on his forehead.
If he didn''t hang up the phone, Jing Yiran would keep on talking.
He had never known that Jing Yiran could be so clingy!
However, did the person taking the photo at the Civil Affairs Bureau change? He remembered that when he and Shangguan ning went to get their marriage certificate, the person in the picture was a mature and steady middle-aged man. When did it be an old woman?
The next day, the people who went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate realized that the person taking the photo had been reced by a simple and honest uncle. The uncle was smiling and very patient. Those who did not get their marriage certificates yesterday all got them today!
After hearing the news, Jing Yiran kissed his new wife happily."Look, there are so many benefits to having an all-powerful brother! Why was I so stupid in the past, doing everything by myself? in the future, I don''t have to do anything, I can just look for my brother if I need anything!"
Lu said calmly,"he can''t kill people, but you cane to me for murder." I''m now the world''s number one assassin, a very good resource, don''t waste it. "
Jing Yiran touched his chin and suddenly went up to Lu to take off her clothes.
"You''re right. I can''t waste such good resources. You''re different from other women. You have such good stamina and endurance. I have to make good use of it! The three timesst night were not very sessful. Your reaction was not strong enough,
so I have to try a few more times today!"
Wasn''t it intense enough?
Lu felt that her reactionst night was beyond her understanding.
It was as if the personst night wasn''t her at all.
It was sofortable that she wanted to indulge in it forever.
If today was even more intense, what would that be like!
And three times was already a lot, okay? She had never felt so tired even when she was fighting with someone!
If they were to do it a few more times today, she wouldn''t be able to take it with her physical strength!

Chapter 791: The benefits of amnesia
Mu Wensheng and Mu Qing were already experienced in making the antidote, so they made it much faster than the first time. The antidote was ready on the same night they got Lu''s blood.
He had given Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan the antidote that night and injected them with the medicine the next morning. Both of them had experienced significant changes in their physical condition.
Shangguan ning woke up first.
Maybe because she reacted to Jing Yichen''s voice, Jing Yichen woke her up when he tried to call her after using the antidote.
Shangguan ning opened her eyes. Everything in front of her was blurry and her mind was muddled.
Jing Yichen was overjoyed. He held her hand and called out,"Ning! You''re finally awake!"
Shangguan ning felt a splitting headache and her memory became blurry, as if it had been erased.
But she could still remember Jing Yichen. What had been erased were the less profound memories, while the profound ones were still there.
What Shangguan ning didn''t know was that if she had slept for a little longer, even those deep memories would have disappeared.
Yang Muyan had paid a high price for the poison to be specially made. It was very overbearing. Not only could it make people fall into a deep sleep, but it would also slowly make people lose their memories and even turn them into idiots in the end. If the treatment took too long, it would be useless even if they woke up.
"Yichen,"
Shangguan ning''s voice was hoarse the moment she opened her mouth. She had not spoken for a long time.
Hearing Shangguan ning call his name, Jing Yichen knew that she hadn''t forgotten about him and that her memory loss might not be serious.
But Shangguan ning couldn''t remember what had happened before she fainted. She saw herself lying in family MU''s Hospital and couldn''t help but ask,"What did I do?"
Jing Yichen took her into his arms and said softly, "I''m fine. I just took a nap, but it was a little long. "
"Where''s Ruirui?"
Jing Yichen smiled. It was good that she had not forgotten about him and his son. That was enough.
"Our son is with our Father. He''s quite close to his grandfather now, but he doesn''t even care about me when he sees me. I''m being despised by him."
However, Shangguan ning remembered Jing Yichen and Jing Rui, but she couldn''t remember many details, such as Qianqian.
"Howe I don''t remember what Ruirui looks like? Yichen, what''s going on? I seem to have ... Forgotten a lot of things. "
Who would believe that a mother could not remember her child''s appearance?
Shangguan ning panicked. But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn''t remember.
Then she tried to recall what Jing zhongxiu looked like, but she couldn''t remember either.
She clutched Jing Yichen''s clothes tightly, feeling very uneasy. The memory was getting blurry and it was very ufortable.
Jing Yichen consoled her in a soft voice, "It''s fine. I''ll ask my father to send him
over. You''ll remember when you see him."
After a long while, Shangguan ning still couldn''t ept the fact."I ... Lost my memory?"
"A little, but I don''t think it''s serious. At least you still remember me."
Jing Yichen was calm. As long as Shangguan ning remembered him, nothing else was a problem.
Zhao Anan woke up in the afternoon.
Her memory loss was simr to Shangguan ning ''s. She could not remember the details of her life, but she could remember the important people and things around her.
But what made Mu Qing pained was that Zhao Anan had forgotten about their marriage.
She remembered his proposal but did not remember that they were already married!
The memory of not marrying Mu Qing was too deep in her mind, but the memory of getting married was not so deep.
But with everyone as a witness, the marriage certificate and the registration at the Civil Affairs Bureau, it was hard for Zhao Anan to deny it.
She felt as if she had just fallen asleep, and when she woke up, the world had turned upside down.
The three women had woken up. Although they all had different degrees of memory loss, which even caused some inconvenience in their daily lives, this was the best result.
Time flew by and it was soon may, the day of Zhao Anan and Mu Qing''s wedding.
Until the day before the wedding, Zhao Anan was still holding Shangguan ning''s hand and asking,"Ning, am I really married to Mu Qing? Are you guys working together to lie to me? After all, I''ve lost my memory. It seems easy to lie to me at this time!"
Shangguan ning said firmly,"absolutely not. It''s true!" You like Mu Qing, so what''s so strange about you marrying him? Wasn''t it good to marry him? You''ve already gotten your marriage certificate and your wedding is tomorrow. Family mu has invited all of our rtives and friends. If you go back on your word, Mu Qing will be embarrassed and the old man will be furious. "
She couldn''t remember how she had set Zhao Anan up.
She only had a vague impression of Zhao Anan''s marriage. She was not sure how they got married, but she would never show her suspicion in front of Zhao Anan.
Among her, Zhao Anan and Zheng Lun, only Zheng Lun could remember what had happened when Zhao Anan married Mu Qing. She had less memory loss, and she had a strong impact on her innocent and kind heart, so she could remember it clearly.
Hearing Shangguan ning''s confident words, Zhao Anan''s suspicions were mostly dispelled. She fiddled with the clothes she was going to wear tomorrow.
As she stroked the dress, she mumbled in confusion,""Why do I remember that I didn''t wear dresses before? Mu Qing said that I used to like wearing dresses and I was the one who cried and begged to buy those dresses at home, but I have no memory of them at all!"
Shangguan ning didn''t remember whether she used to like wearing dresses or pants, but she had encouraged Zhao Anan to wear a dress. After all, Zhao Anan was a girl and she looked more feminine in a dress than in pants.
"Didn''t you lose your memory?
How could he remember the past? I remember that you like to wear dresses and said that you look prettier in dresses!"
"Is that so?"
Zhao Anan was still suspicious. After a while, she finally realized that something was wrong.
"Didn''t you also lose your memory? I don''t even remember my own matters, yet you still remember those little things about me? I can''t even remember what you like to eat or what kind of clothes you like! Why do you still remember me? Ah ning, you''re so bad, you actually colluded with them to lie to me!"
"There''s no such thing, you''re overthinking it! I''m your best friend, why Would I Lie to You?"
Chapter 792: Big-bellied and small-bellied
Chapter 792: Big-bellied and small-bellied
"You don''t remember anything about me, which only means that I don''t have a ce in your heart at all. I''m very angry, and the consequences will be very serious!"
Shangguan ning reached out to pinch Zhao Anan''s toot face. She had gained a lot of weight thanks to Mu Qing. Her breasts seemed to be getting bigger and her face was chubby. She wanted to pinch her cheeks.
Zhao Anan pinched Shangguan ning''s face, but Shangguan ning dodged her hand quickly. The two of them started to y in the bedroom.
Mu Qing, who was standing not far away, heard what Zhao Anan said. He raised his eyebrows and said to Jing Yichen who was holding Jing Rui,"Why do I feel that Anan''s amnesia is a good thing? In the past, making her wear a dress was like sending her to the battlefield, but now it''s so easy!"
"Well, your lying skills can finally be put to use."
Jing Yichen said calmly and then turned his attention to Shangguan ning.
Although Shangguan ning also had memory loss, she could remember most of the important things, but not the details. She would be able to remember it slowly after he described it to her in detail.
She had almost forgotten about other people''s Affairs, but she actually remembered everything about him!
She remembered his birthday, their wedding anniversary, and everything that happened when they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate. She even remembered the night she was locked out by her aunt and cousin, and every scene when he carried her home.
This proved that in her heart, he was the most important person to her, and he was her most important memory.
She did not remember what Jing Rui looked like, but she remembered him.
He was more important to her than Jing Rui.
"Dad, the corners of your lips and eyes are raised, and your breathing has also changed slightly. ording to the micro-expression psychology you taught me, I''m sure you''re a little proud now. Do you think that mom remembers you more than me, so you''re proud?"
Jing Rui paused and gave his father a fair evaluation. "You''re being jealous of your son, how childish!"
Jing Rui, who rarely spoke, was able to speak clearly and logically. Mu Qing''s jaw dropped in shock, and Jing Yichen''s face cracked.
What''s going on?
His son wanted to ascend to the heavens!
He dared to say that he was childish? How was he childish! He was the most mature man in the entire A city!
Jing Yichen stared at Jing Rui with a serious face, and Jing Rui stared back at his father, Qianqian. He was still upset about his mother''s forgetting. He was his mother''s baby, and his father had to stand aside!
Mu Qing was dumbfounded to see the father and son staring at each other. Jing Rui was only one year old. It was too weird to say that Jing Yichen was an adult.
Amoner like him would not understand the world of geniuses with off-the-charts intelligence!
So sad!
This child is already speaking like an adult at such a young age. What will happen in the future!
Only a person with
Jing Yichen''s intelligence could handle this little boy.
.
If he had a son like that, he would be tortured to death in minutes! If his son was too smart, the pressure of being a father would be huge!
But now it seemed that Jing Yichen was not able to control Jing Rui either. Look, he was only one year old and he was alreadyining about his father''s naivety. He even used psychological knowledge as a basis for debate and exposed his father''s smugness. He was a genius with a sharp tongue and two-faced personality!
Mu Qing couldn''t help but feel a little like Jing Yichen. Jing Rui hadpletely inherited his ck-bellied nature, and he was going to have a hard time in the future.
Aiya, the old man''s embryo had made very good progress recently. Should he tell the old man to pick a more ordinary embryo and find someone to breed it? if the embryo was too good, it might identally breed a demon in the future. How could he live as a father?
On the way home, Jing Yichen was driving and Shangguan ning was sitting in the passenger seat with Jing Rui in her arms. She was talking to him gently.
"Ruirui, did you eat your fill at aunty''s tonight? I don''t see you eating much, do you want me to make you something to eatter?"
Jing Rui didn''t say anything, and Shangguan ning didn''t expect him to.
He had always been like this, a man of few words. He would only speak if he wanted something.
Shangguan ning had gotten used to her son''s reticence. He was just like Jing Yichen. Like Father, Like Son. She didn''t think it was a bad thing.
"He ate too much at noon, so he ate less at night. He doesn''t need to eat more when he gets back."
Jing Yichen''s voice was calm and emotionless, as if he was just stating a fact.
Shangguan ning agreed with him and nodded."Well, that''s good. I won''t eat anything when I get home tonight. I''ll sleep after drinking some milk."
Jing Rui, who was lying quietly in her arms, suddenly said,""No, mom, I want to eat the heart-shaped pumpkin patties you make. They''re soft, sweet, and delicious. Besides, pumpkins were easy to digest, so it didn''t matter if he ate more. Mom, can you make it for Ruirui?"
Shangguan ning was ttered to hear that her son had said so much to her.
Oh my God, Jing Rui had said more than he had ever said before!
What was going on today? What a pleasant surprise!
Shangguan ning held her son in her arms and promised him,"Of course, I''ll make it for you if Ruirui wants it! You can eat as much as you want!"
Shangguan ning didn''t care that her son, who was only one year and one month old, knew that pumpkins were easy to digest. It was a piece of cake for Jing Rui.
The knowledge he had now was already very, very terrifying. It far exceeded the knowledge that a one-year-old child should have.
But ording to Jing zhongxiu, Jing Yichen was the same. He had been a genius since he was a child. He learned everything quickly, had a good memory and was good at understanding. He could teach anything easily.
Shangguan ning had already seen her son''s intelligence. She was used to
the genius side of him that he showed asionally.
At this moment, she was so excited when her son talked to her that she had forgotten that Jing Rui did not like sweet food.
But Jing Yichen didn ''t.
He looked at his cunning son indifferently and said with an expressionless face,""I thought you didn''t like sweet things? You didn''t eat any of the yam blueberry cake and sweet corn porridge for lunch today. "
Jing Rui held Shangguan ning''s arm and acted innocent in her arms."I love everything that mommy cooks. Don''t you like what mommy cooks? Mom, don''t cook for dad anymore, it''s a waste for him. Just cook for Ruirui!"
Chapter 793-clever little ghost
Chapter 793-clever little ghost
Hearing what Jing Rui said, Jing Yichen''s face darkened.
What did he mean by it would be a waste for him to eat it?
He had actually learned to dig a hole for him!
He didn''t want Shangguan ning to cook for him because he was afraid that she would get cut or scalded by oil. He had only eaten Shangguan ning''s cooking twice since they had been married. One time, he had eaten the pumpkin cake that Shangguan ning had learned to make for days because of Jing Rui.
This brat, he actually asked his woman to cook for him. He was too arrogant!
Shangguan ning didn''t notice Jing Yichen''s expression. She was focused on her son.
His son seemed to be exceptionally well-behaved and sensible today!
Could it be because he had grown up? Did he finally realize how good his mother was?
No matter what the reason was, her son had finally shown the kind of attachment and affection that a child should have for his mother. Shangguan ning was so happy that she agreed to his request.
"Okay, okay, mom will only cook for Ruirui in the future! I''ll make you whatever you want to eat. I''ll make sure you''ll be strong, taller, and smarter than your dad!"
"Yes, Mom. I will definitely surpass dad in the future. When I grow up, let me protect you, okay?"
Shangguan ning was pleasantly surprised. Her son was so sweet today!
The little guy had suddenly be so sensible. He didn''t mind that the food she made tasted bad and even wanted to protect her. She was so touched that she was about to cry!
She happily kissed her son''s little face, her eyes a little red."Ruirui, you''re so sensible. Mom is so happy! We don''t want dad anymore. You''ll be the one protecting me from now on!"
Jing Yichen, who had been abandoned by his wife so quickly, looked even worse.
This brat actually dared to snatch his woman!
Hmph, I''ll have to increase the intensity of my training in the future! Otherwise, this little thing would only bepeting with him all day!
Jing Rui let Shangguan ning kiss him on the left cheek and then on the right cheek. When Shangguan ning wasn''t paying attention, he threw a provocative look at his father. Look, she kissed me instead of you. Mom loves me more! You have to stand aside!
Jing Yichen was very displeased."Our son is still young. You can''t spoil him like this. He is not going to be easy to teach."
"It''s not easy for my son to be willing to talk to me, don''t interrupt!"
Jing Yichen felt very helpless. His position in the family was at stake.
His son''s IQ was ridiculously high. At such a young age, he had already learned how to pretend and drive a wedge between them!
Alright, it was all his fault for teaching his son too well. He didn''t know how to act cute and act like an obedient baby like his son and directly lost the battle!
Jing Rui was very proud that he had defeated his father. He blinked his big eyes, which were as beautiful as ck grapes, and his long eyshes moved like a small fan. He said in a tender and pleasant voice,""Mom, I want to sleep with you tonight, can I? I''m a little scared to sleep in that big bedroom alone. I''m all alone and pitiful. "
Shangguan ning''s heart ached when she heard what her son said. She had thought that it was too much to let her son sleep alone. He was so young and he should
sleep with his parents.
"Yes, yes, anything is fine! I''ll sleep with you tonight, tell you a story, coax you to sleep, and cover you with a nket ..."
.
Jing Yichen was speechless.
This kid was so cunning!
He was more courageous than anyone else, and he never knew how to spell the word "fear"! Would he be afraid of sleeping alone in a bedroom? Only Shangguan ning would believe him.
"No, you can sleep by yourself. Your mom is not free and can''t apany you! You''re already an adult, yet you still want to sleep with your mother. Don''t you find it embarrassing?"
Jing Rui raised his head immediately and looked at Shangguan ning with his innocent eyes. He asked in confusion,"Mom, how old am I?"
Shangguan ning was displeased. She red at Jing Yichen."Our son is only one year old, how is he old? Other people''s children are still drinking milk when they''re more than one year old, but our son is already very independent. It''s not too much for me to sleep with him for a night. Shut up and don''t talk!"
Well, the Almighty Master Jing had been abandoned by his wife and son.
A one-year-old still drinking milk? Which family''s child was so useless?
Jing Rui looked down on the one-year-old boy who was still drinking milk. He had been weaned off milk a long time ago, and it was easy for him to stop drinking milk. In his mother''s words, he was the best!
He also felt that he was very good. He had even defeated his father, who he had always admired. Wasn''t he great?
Along the way, Jing Yichen was told by Shangguan ning not to interrupt or talk. He could only watch Jing Rui act cute and coquettishly with Shangguan ning. He used all his martial arts skills and coaxed Shangguan ning So much that she couldn''t even tell the direction.
This kid, even if he was thrown on the street now, there was no need to be afraid of him being kidnapped. Who knows, the person who kidnapped him might end up being sold by this clever little brat!
Jing Rui hugged Shangguan ning''s thigh tightly when they got home.
He didn''t ask Shangguan ning to make pumpkin cake for him anymore. Pumpkin cake was just a casual remark. He couldn''t eat anything made by his mother. In this aspect, his father was better. Everything he made was delicious!
He kept pestering Shangguan ning to give him a bath and told him stories that he could already recite backwards. Then he fell asleep holding her arm.
As soon as Jing Yichen walked into Jing Rui''s bedroom, he saw his wife holding her son in her arms in the mostfortable position. Her hands and feet were stiff, as if she was afraid of crushing Jing Rui.
Shangguan ning had not slept with Jing Rui in her arms much since he was born. She was inexperienced, but she still loved her child. She would make sure that her son slept well, even if she was not feeling well.
Jing Yichen''s heart was filled with gentleness as he looked at the two figures on the bed.
He had the best wife in the world and the smartest and cutest son in the world. His life was perfect.
He took a shower and changed into a set offortable cotton pajamas. Then, he put on his slippers and went into his son''s bedroom.
He moved Jing Rui in slightly, which woke up Shangguan ning who was in a light sleep.
"What are you doing?" she opened her eyes and asked in confusion.&n
bsp;
"I want to sleep with you guys. The bed over there is too big. It''s notfortable for me to sleep alone in space."
Jing Yichen said as hey down on Shangguan ning''s side.
In this way, Jing Rui slept in the middle, Shangguan ning in the middle and Jing Yichen on the outside.
Shangguan ning kissed his chin with a smile. She knew that Jing Yichen didn''t like to sleep alone either.
Luckily, she was worried that Jing Rui would fall off the bed when he was ten months old, so she had changed the bed to a bigger one. Otherwise, the baby bed would not have been able to fit the three of them.
Chapter 794-grabbing the headlines again
Chapter 794-grabbing the headlines again
The next day was the day of Zhao Anan and Mu Qing''s wedding. Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen got up early and went to the Zhao family with Jing Rui.
Zhao Anan was going to get married in family Zhao, and Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen were her family. Of course they had to help.
Her wedding was abination of Chinese and Western styles. She got up early in the morning to put on makeup and wore a bright red cheongsam-style long dress. She felt ufortable all over.
"This isn''t right, this definitely isn''t right!"
"What''s wrong?"Shangguan ning asked curiously.
"You guys must be lying to me. I definitely didn''t like to wear dresses in the past. I definitely didn''t remember it wrong!"
A person''s preferences would not change because of amnesia. For example, a person who used to like light-colored clothes would still like light-colored clothes after amnesia. A person who did not like dark-colored clothes or sweet food would not dislike them because of amnesia.
Zhao Anan had always thought that she didn''t like to wear dresses, but Mu Qing and Shangguan ning had told her so many times that she thought that she had made a mistake.
After trying a few times, she realized that it was not the case at all!
She still liked to wear pants and not dresses!
"Oh my God, are you guys lying to me about something else that I don''t even know about? Mu Qing is a liar, but you are my best friend. How could you collude with the wolves and lie to me, who is innocent and kind and has lost my memory?"
Shangguan ning couldn''t help but burst intoughter.
She felt a strong sense of familiarity when Zhao Ananplimented her shamelessly like this. She must haveplimented her in the same way in the past. Although Shangguan ning couldn''t remember exactly who she was, she could still remember the familiar happy atmosphere.
"I''m not lying to you. It''s your own low IQ that you trust others so easily. As you can see, none of us are good people, so you have to eat more walnuts in the future to boost your brain. Don''t forget the past so easily!"
Shangguan ning had a feeling that she had lied to Zhao Anan once before. Now that she saw Zhao Anan, she had an inexplicable feeling in her heart. She felt a little guilty and a little proud.
No, she had to go back and ask Jing Yichen what she had done to Zhao Anan.
Zheng Lun arrived soon after, but Zheng Jing was not there. He was Mu Qing''s best man and was helping out at the moment.
ording to the custom, the groom would bring the best man to the bride''s house to pick her up before noon. Before that, the men''s side were not allowed to enter the bride''s house.
Zheng Lun''s memory was the mostplete. The ones that she had lost were not important, but she remembered everything about Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan.
However, both Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan had a vague impression of Zheng Lun. When they had just woken up, neither of them could remember what Zheng Lun looked like.
Of course, after a few interactions, that sense of familiarity returned very quickly. After all, the three of them had simr temperaments, so it was very easy for them to develop a tacit understanding and intimacy.
"Anan, you''re so pretty today!"
"Haha, this is all thanks to the makeup arti
st my mom hired for me!"
The makeup artist who was praised by Lady Zhao shook her head. She was the exclusive makeup artist of the current popr stars and was used to putting heavy makeup on the stars. Now that Zhao Anan didn''t like this or that, she couldn''t do anything.
Just like now.
"Aiya, don ''t, don'' t, don ''t. Don''t stick your fake eyshes. They''re too long and too fake!"
.
These were already trimmed fake eyshes. They couldn''t be any shorter, okay?
"Wait a minute, why is this lip gloss as red as blood? Wipe it off, it''s awkward!"
Young miss, today is your wedding day, and it''s your first wedding. If I don''t give you bright red lipstick, should I give you pink?
"No, no, the powder is too thick. Will I fall down when I walk? Don''t wipe it, it''s too white, you look like a zombie. "
The makeup artist was totally defeated by Zhao Anan. Was her makeup skills that bad? She had just applied the most famous BB cream on Zhao Anan. It was not powder. How could the cream fall down? this girl''s imagination was too rich!
In the end, Shangguan ning pressed Zhao Anan down and stopped her from moving. The makeup artist finallypleted the most difficult bridal makeup that she had ever done in her career.
They didn''t apply fake eyshes on her, but the makeup artist had put on eyeliner and mascara to make her eyshes longer and thicker.
Zhao Anan felt that her world was covered by his long eyshes. She was so anxious that she wanted to pull her own eyshes.
Shangguan ning pped her hand away and said,"hold on. Don''t move." It''s your wedding today, so you have to put on makeup. Otherwise, if you don''t wear any makeup, the MU family will think that you have a problem with them. So many guests in their family will be looking at youter, and it''ll be so embarrassing if you pull off your eyshes!"
"Alright, I''ll bear with it."
Zhao Ananpromised unwillingly.
The festive firecrackers sounded, indicating that the groom hade to pick up the bride.
Mu Qing gave Shangguan ning and Zheng Lun a thick red packet each and then took Zhao Anan to offer tea to the olddy and Zhao Zhao.
The olddy was also all red today. She was so happy that she couldn''t close her mouth. She finally saw her granddaughter get married. It really wasn''t easy!
Zhao Zhao''s eyes were red, but today was her daughter''s big day, so she couldn''t cry. She tried her best to hold back.
She took Zhao Anan''s hand and handed it to Mu Qing."Mu Qing, I''ll leave Anan to you. I''ve spoiled her, please be more forgiving."
Mu Qing said in a serious tone with a smile on his face,"Mom, don''t worry. I will make Anan happy!" She said.
He called her "mom" so smoothly that Zhao Zhao couldn''t help butugh. This gave her a novel feeling of having a son.
In fact, she was very relieved to leave Zhao Anan in Mu Qing''s care. There was no one more reliable than Mu Qing.
"Good, good, good. I wish you a lifetime of happiness!"
"Thank you, Mom!"
Zhao Anan looked at Mu Qing with a smile. He was dressed very handsomely today and even had his hair done specially. He was calling Zhao Zhao "mom" even more affectionately than she was. He
really looked like a good son-inw!
After leaving the Zhao family, they went straight to the MU family.
The Grand and luxurious wedding convoy bypassed more than half of A city. When they arrived at the MU family, they were immediately sent to the headlines of the day by the reporters and citizens of A city!
The one in the lead was a cool white Bugatti, followed by 20 rolls Royces and 20 colorful Ferraris.
The two helicopters followed the whole process to film the marriage micro-movie in post-production.
Such a luxurious lineup immediately attracted the crowd''s admiration and envy.
Chapter 795: The shooting at the wedding
Chapter 795: The shooting at the wedding
It was a festive scene in the MU family. Not only were the word "happy" pasted everywhere, but many rednterns were also hung. The whole family was dressed in festive colors.
Mu Qing was thest one to get married in family mu and Zhao Anan was the only heir of family Zhao. The dowry was so generous that family MU''s wedding should not be shabby.
When they arrived at the MU family, Zhao Anan served the tea to Grandpa mu first.
"Grandpa, please have some tea!"
It was a big day and Grandpa couldn''t embarrass his granddaughter-inw in front of so many people. He took the tea from Zhao Anan with a smile and took a sip. Then he gave Zhao Anan a red packet.
Then, she served tea to Mu Qing''s parents. She called them "dad" and "mom" very smoothly, without any awkwardness, although she hadn''t called them "dad" for a long time.
After her father had cheated on her, she had never seen him again, let alone called him. She looked down on a man who was so irresponsible with his marriage and family.
Mu bingrong didn''t like her as his daughter-inw, but he was a good husband and father. Zhao Anan respected him.
After toasting and receiving red packets, it was time to eat dumplings and drink cross-cupped wine.
After a while, everyone went to the church together.
Mu Qing and Zhao Anan''s wedding was abination of Chinese and Western styles, which was also the way many young people chose to get married. It took into ount both the traditional etiquette and the romance and sacredness of the wedding.
When Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen got married, it was a Western-style wedding, which was rted to the tradition of family Jing. A single western wedding was more solemn and rxed than abination of Chinese and Western.
Western-style weddings often appeared more solemn and sacred. The priest stood at the front, and the rtives and friends who hade to witness the new couple''s love sat below. The church was quiet, without the hustle and bustle and the loud firecrackers.
Zhao Anan''s father was not informed of her marriage. He had long forgotten that he had a daughter and she did not see him as a father.
It was Jing Yichen who had brought Zhao Anan to Mu Qing as her father.
He was Zhao Anan''s cousin and the closest male rtive she had.
Zhao Anan held Jing Yichen''s arm and followed him to Mu Qing slowly, wearing a white wedding dress and holding a bouquet.
This was the first time that Zhao Anan had held Jing Yichen''s arm.
He had never liked to be in contact with other people, and after what happened to Tang shunian, he did not allow anyone to touch him.
But Jing Yichen''s problem had improved a lot since he got married to Shangguan ning.
At least now that Zhao Anan was holding his arm through his clothes, he wouldn''t vomit as violently as before, even though he was not used to it.
Zhao Anan had been very nervous because of the Grand wedding ceremony. She had been afraid that she would make a mistake. But when she saw Jing Yichen throwing her to Mu Qing and then wiping her clothes with a handkerchief, sheughed out of anger.
How could t
here be such a brother!
How many bacteria and viruses did she have to make him despise her so much?
After Jing Yichen''s torture, Zhao Anan''s nervousness disappeared. She took Mu Qing''s arm and stood in front of the priest happily. She felt much better holding Mu Qing''s arm, unlike holding Jing Yichen ''s, who was an iceberg, making her feel scared.
.
The wedding went on smoothly. Jing Yiran and Lu sat in the most inconspicuous seat in the church. He was here today to observe and learn so that he could know what to do when he married Lu.
"Oh, why is marriage soplicated? it''s so tiring! Chinese and Western, isn''t it too much trouble?"
Lu didn''t hear what Jing Yiran said at all. She didn''t like to be surrounded by so many people. She felt that there might be other killers hiding in the crowd. She was very uneasy.
She knew that she had a phobia of people. Every time there were too many people, she would feel very ufortable because she needed to spend a lot of energy to distinguish who was in danger.
Her entire body was tensed up, and she was on guard against everyone around her as if they were her opponents.
This was very tiring, but it was a survival instinct formed by her many years of assassin life, and it was difficult to change.
Jing Yiran knew that Lu didn''t like this kind of asion. So he held her hand and consoled her in a low voice, "It''s fine. It''ll be over soon. They''ve already exchanged their rings. They''ll be gone after we take a photo together."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden change urred!
The shrill sound of the gunshot exploded in the quiet church. Then someone groaned in pain, followed by Zhao Anan''s shrill and panicked screams."Mu Qing!"
The hand that Jing Yiran was holding suddenly disappeared and Lu was no longer in the ne beside him.
The church fell into chaos in an instant, with screams rising and falling.
Two more gunshots were heard and a few secondster, Lu appeared on the seat next to Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran got startled the moment he saw her."Lu, what''s wrong?"
Her face was pale, her hair was slightly messy, and there was a pained expression on her face.
Killing didn''t consume Lu''s energy much. What made her pale was the high-speed movement and the sound of "
"I''ve been shot. Come with me to the hospitalter. "
As she spoke, she released her hand that had been covering her chest. Her white hand and white Sweatshirt were already covered in blood.
Jing Yiran''s heart ached so much that he scolded,"Are you F * cking crazy? Did you take a bullet for that idiot Zhao Anan? Mu Qing''s wife is important, but my wife is not? My wife is a hundred times more precious than his wife. If you do this again, I''ll lock you up at home and never let you out again!"
Although he was about to go crazy, he still picked up the petite deer and ran out without stopping.
"Get lost! Can''t you see that my wife is injured?!"
"Brother, Lu is injured. Get a helicopter and take her to the hospital!"
At this critical moment, Jing Yiran suddenly remembere
d that he had an all-powerful brother, so he asked him for help. Weren''t Blood Brothers meant to be used at such times?
Jing Yichen said without any hesitation,"Carry her out, the helicopter willnd in a minute!"
His two helicopters were in charge of the aerial photos of Mu Qing''s wedding today, and they were now hovering over the church.
Moreover, Lu was not the only one who had been shot. There were two other people who had bullied Mu Qing and the killer who had shot Mu Qing and Lu.
The killer shot Lu in the heart and she died instantly. Mu Qing was badly injured and needed to be sent to the hospital immediately.
Chapter 796: Two people helping her take a bullet
Chapter 796: Two people helping her take a bullet
The wedding had been ruined. Zhao Anan didn''t feel any happiness at all. She was only filled with fear and worry.
Her makeup waspletely ruined from her crying.
The helicopter arrived at family MU''s Hospital with Lu and Mu Qing, as well as Jing Yichen and the others who were attending the wedding.
Before mu Wensheng could celebrate his grandson''s wedding, he had to cut open his grandson''s abdomen and take out the bullet. It was really cruel for an old man who loved his grandson.
Even though he had been through so many life and death situations and saved so many lives, his heart ached when he saw Mu Qing''s blood-covered and pale face. Even his fingers were trembling.
Fortunately, he was very professional. He calmed down quickly and began to cut open the skin of his grandson''s chest to take out the bullet.
In the same operating room, Mu Tong was also removing the bullet for Lu on another operating table.
Lu''s wound was shallow and not fatal. Her condition was much better than Mu Qing ''s, and the operation was rtively easy.
The two operations were carried out and ended at the same time.
Although Lu''s surgery was less difficult and should have beenpleted faster, Mu Tong was not as skilled as mu Wensheng in removing bullets from the chest, so they all finished at about the same time.
Lu and Mu Qing were pushed into the ward after the operation.
Then, Lu''s strong body was revealed in this situation. She woke up from the anesthesia in only five minutes and could get out of bed and walk around after half an hour.
Mu Qing was still lying on the bed, unconscious.
"Go back and lie down. Mu Qing and Zhao Anan won''t die. You just had an operation, why are you going to see them? I am your man, not Mu Qing. Even if he dies, it has nothing to do with you!"
Lu walked back to the bed obediently andy down under the nket as per Jing Yiran''s request.
However, she muttered softly,""Now that Mu Qing is dead, there will be no one to rece my blood."
Jing Yiran''s anger dissipated at Lu''s words.
Although he knew that Lu did not go to Mu Qing''s rescue so that Mu Qing could change her blood, she seemed more human than before.
He liked this kind of Lu.
He sat down beside Lu and kissed her.
"You''re not allowed to do this next time. Your first priority is to protect yourself, not others. "
Lu patted the bed beside her and said in a low voice,""Lie down here and hug me."
It was the first time that Jing Yiran had ever been asked for a hug. All the resentment in his heart turned into tenderness. Hey down beside her and held her in his arms.
Lu buried her head in his neck and exined,""I''m confident that I''ll be fine. That''s why I took the initiative to attack. "
Jing Yiran didn''t agree with her."It doesn''t matter even if you are confident. Do you think that it will be fine as long as you are alive?" What I want is for you to not get hurt at all! You''re a girl, why are you always so powerful? You should learn from that Zheng Lun and be a little timid. Don''t push yo
urself too hard. Otherwise, why am I here? Could it be that I''m only here to warm your bed at night?"
Lu smiled as she was being controlled by him.
Husband?
This form of address was too novel for her!
It was unbelievable that she would have a husband one day.
Jing Yiran didn''t remember to ask Lu about the situation until he had finished lecturing his wife.
"Who was the person you killed? A killer?"
"It should be. From the technique and body movement, he was trained by an assassin organization. I''ve already killed two high-ranked killers in a row, so I think the killer organization will have something against me. "
The assassin organization had existed for hundreds of years and had developed to this point. They were already everywhere.
There were so many people around when Lu killed the killer. It was easy to guess that she was the murderer.
After all, she was the only one who had the ability to do so.
"What''s the ranking of the one who died today?"
"Number five, ck Rose."
"A woman?" Jing Yiran was surprised.
Didn''t they say that Lu was the only female killer in the top ten?
"No, he''s a man, but he''s a little feminine. He likes to use women''s perfume, and after killing someone, he will throw a ck Rose, so he got the name ''ck Rose''."
Lu took out a flower from her clothes and said,""It''s like this. "
Jing Yiran looked at the ck Rose in surprise.""You snatched his flower?"
Lu smiled and said with pride,""He definitely can''t beat me in speed. He didn''t even have time to throw out this flower before I took it."
Jing Yiran was a bit displeased."That is too dangerous. If you like roses, I can give you a thousand. Why did you have to Rob others?" And it''s ck, it''s creepy!"
"I don''t like this flower. I just want to snatch it and confirm his identity."
Lu exined.
After killing a very powerful killer, she had to know the other party''s identity. Otherwise, she could not give a reasonable exnation to the killer organization in advance.
It was not easy for an organization to train a top assassin. It would take many years and a lot of money and material resources.
There were only eight of the top ten killers left, and she, who was ranked first, had stopped taking missions. Now, there were only seven people who could fight.
Jing Yiran didn''t care about the killers. As long as family Jing was powerful enough to protect him and Lu, it was fine.
He had recently found that although Jing Yichen looked cold, he would actually help him solve any problem as long as he kept pestering him shamelessly. And he was so efficient that it made him speechless.
It was really important to have a good brother!
Begging brother was much more useful than begging father!
Jing zhongxiu didn''t care about him at all, let alone Jing Tianyuan. They just thought that he had been driven out of family Jing and had no i
ntention of letting hime back.
Jing Yiran didn''t want to go back anyway. His life was much more rxed and pleasant now that he had food and drinks outside and he could spend a happy time with Lu.
The next morning, Mu Qing did not wake up until Lu had woken up.
Seeing him awake, Zhao Anan burst into tears.
At the wedding yesterday, the killer had targeted her, not Mu Qing.
Mu Qing had blocked the bullet for her!
The killer missed the first shot and fired the second one. But he still did not hit Zhao Anan, because Lu had blocked the bullet for her.
Chapter 797
Chapter 797
After a short moment of confusion, Mu Qing quickly recalled what had happened.
Seeing Zhao Anan''s pretty eyes turning into peaches from crying, a faint smile appeared on his pale face. "Don''t cry, I''m not dead, right? You can cry after I die! If you dry your tears now, you won''t be able to cry when I die, right?"
"Pei Pei Pei!"
Zhao Anan was so angry that she stopped crying."Don''t talk nonsense. Take back what you said!"
Mu Qing used to joke like this a lot, but Zhao Anan had never taken it seriously.
But she couldn''t bear to hear Mu Qing say that. She had been worried for the whole night that he would never wake up again.
She was worried when she thought of the wedding the day before, when Mu Qing had risked his life to take the bullet for her. She would rather be the one who was hit.
Mu Qing still had a smile on his face. "Don''t worry, I won''t die. Grandpa Jing has read my fortune and said that I will live to a hundred years old. He is very good at fortune-telling!"
He was a doctor Who advocated science and medicine. When did he start to believe in fate?
Jing Tianyuan had told all the fortune-tellers that they would live to a hundred years old. How could he take that seriously?
No, no, no, these words should be true!
Mu Qing would definitely live a long life!
"Yes, yes, yes, Grandpa Jing is very good at fortune-telling! You''ll definitely be fine!"
Zhao Anan put Mu Qing''s hand on her chest and felt relieved.
If anything happened to Mu Qing, she would not be able to live on.
"Where''s the killer? I remember that Lu shot him? Sigh, she was too fast, and I wasn''t too clear-headed at the time, so I didn''t see how she did it! He''s indeed the world''s No. 1, he''s really amazing!"
Mu Qing couldn''t stop sighing in admiration of the world''s most powerful man, while Zhao Anan felt very guilty.
"Lu killed the killer. She said that he was the fifth killer in the world. The killer fired two shots at me, but you and Lu blocked one for me. I''m fine, but you two almost got into trouble. "
Zhao Anan didn''t feel that it was wrong for Mu Qing to take the bullet for her. Although she was also very distressed, she wasn''t surprised.
She had always known that no matter how dangerous it was, Mu Qing would always protect her at the first moment.
But Lu was different. She was not familiar with Lu at all, especially after she lost her memory. She had even forgotten that Lu existed. Lu''s sudden appearance had saved her life. Zhao Anan was grateful but also scared that something might happen to Lu.
Jing Yiran, that bastard, had already run up to her when Lu and Mu Qing were having the operation. He was so angry that he looked like he was going to eat her.
If she had not been worried about Mu Qing and grateful to Lu, she would have beaten Jing Yiran up.
Even if she had lost her memory, she still remembered that he had found someone to imprison her for half a year!
Mu Qing had not expected that Lu would take the bullet for Zhao Anan.
Lu
.
had always been a cold person. She had no feelings for people and was almost like a robot.
No wonder he had heard three gunshots but Zhao Anan was not hurt. Lu had been shot.
"Is Lu okay? How is she now?"
"She''ll be fine. Lu is in good health. She was able to get out of bed and walk after the operation yesterday, and her wound haspletely healed today. "
"Aiyo, it''s really a robot. It''s repaired so quickly!" Mu Qing smiled enviously."Now I''m very envious of the virus she has. It''s not a virus, but a treasure!" He said. With them, Lu would have a hundred lives! Oh, it''s just that it''s a little troublesome to have a blood transfusion every six months. "
It was no wonder that the mysterious research institution that Lu''s parents worked for was trying to catch Lu and extract her cells for research. Even he was envious of Lu''s strong body, not to mention those crazy people.
Lu''s extremely slow aging process was enough to make tens of thousands of men and women go crazy.
Seeing that Mu Qing was in good spirits, Zhao Anan was finally relieved. She called mu Wensheng to check on Mu Qing''s wound. She smiled when she heard that he was recovering well.
Mu Wensheng threw a look at Zhao Anan and snorted. Then he said to his grandson,"Just watch and act, sooner orter you''ll have to throw your life in! You''re really capable, even calling yourself a hero saving a beauty!"
"Grandpa, what are you talking about? isn''t it normal for me to save my own wife?" Mu Qing smiled bitterly. Didn''t you teach me to be responsible and to protect my family since I was young? Besides, I''m afraid that the killer wanted to kill Anan because of me, so it''s only right that I take the bullet for her. "
Mu Wensheng wanted to say that when he asked Mu Qing to protect his family, he did not include Zhao Anan, but he could not bring himself to say it.
Now that Zhao Anan was indeed a member of the MU family, he had to ept it no matter how unwilling he was.
The old man walked out with a long face, but his heart was bitter.
Really, his grandson had married a troublemaker! A marriage had already caused such a ruckus, who knew what the future would be like!
Mu Qing wasn''t worried about mu Wensheng at all. Grandpa mu had always been a man with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He loved the younger generation very much. Although he looked at Zhao Anan coldly, he had always regarded her as his own junior. He had been nice to Zhao Anan, but he had even beaten and scolded him, his own grandson.
What he was worried about was that these killers might be yang Muyan''s pawns. If it was really her, how many assassins had she arranged? And when would they make their move?
As expected, Mu Qing got to know from Jing Yichen that the killer was hired by yang Muyan at noon.
He really was like a ghost that refused to leave!
She was simply no different from a devil, not letting anyone live in peace even after death. She actually arranged such a vicious back-up!
However, this was indeed yang Muyan''s style. She was a person who calcted ten steps ahead with one step. She was so scheming that it was terrifying.
What upset Mu Q
ing the most was that yang Muyan had ruined his wedding with Zhao Anan.
The shooting yesterday had scared the guests to death. Who would have thought that attending a wedding would be life-threatening?
Mu Qing held Zhao Anan''s hands gently."Anan, I''m sorry that I couldn''t give you a perfect wedding."
Zhao Anan didn''t care about the wedding at all. She only wanted Mu Qing to be fine.
"The wedding is just a formality. Anyway, we''ve already finished the Chinese wedding and the Western wedding is almost over. I have no regrets."
The only regret is that you were injured on the wedding day.
Chapter 798: A relapse (1)
Chapter 798: A rpse (1)
Mu Qing was in good physical condition and he was young, so he recovered quickly. After a week, he removed the stitches and was all right.
Zhao Anan had been so kind these days that she even asked the chef of the Zhao family to make soup for Mu Qing.
In the beginning, the taste of her food was very ordinary, but by the seventh day, she could already make it very delicious.
Mu Qing had gained five or six pounds in the past seven days. Luckily, he was a skinny man, otherwise, he would lose his handsome image.
Zhao Anan felt a sense of achievement after she had made Mu Qing fat.
She had gradually experienced the joy of being a wife through her life with Mu Qing.
They took care of each other, and if one of them fell sick, the other would take care of them and give them the most warmth.
They went to the supermarket together to buy groceries and daily necessities. She would help Mu Qing choose a toothbrush, shower gel, and even underwear and socks.
They discussed buying furniture, nkets, and all sorts of practical household appliances.
They would cuddle together at night, watch soap operas, movies, or go to the hot springs.
asionally, she would throw a tantrum and argue with Mu Qing. Then, she would be pressed down on the bed by Mu Qing and punished severely. The next day, she would be obedient and would not dare to argue with him anymore.
Their lives were peaceful andfortable, happy and happy.
Ever since Mu Qing had been injured, Zhao Anan had realized that he was indispensable in her life.
She was treating Mu Qing better and better, like a good wife.
Spring passed and autumn came. The green leaves of A city went from new to mature green, and then to yellow. In thete autumn, they finally fell off the branches.
When autumn and winter arrived, there was a heavy snowfall in A city. The entire world was frozen, and the air was cold and dry.
Zhao Anan''s peaceful and happy life was broken.
Her illness had rpsed.
She had dreamed countless times of her illness acting up. Every time she woke up from the nightmare, she would be drenched in sweat and unable to suppress her fear.
Yes, she was afraid of death. No one was not afraid of death.
Every living being had the instinct to pursue life.
However, perhaps it was because she had dreamed of her rpse too many times, but now that it had really rpsed, she was very calm andposed.
She had always known that she would have a rpse and had never thought that she would be lucky. Otherwise, she would not have refused to marry Mu Qing.
It was her mother, her grandmother, Mu Qing and her best friend who were still hoping for a chance.
Luckily, she had always been very alert about her illness. She used to have a check-up every season, but now that Mu Qing was with her, she had to go for a check-up every month.
As such, the discovery was timely and early.
Mu Qing took her to Germany at once.
On the ne, Mu Qing held Zhao Anan''s hand tightly, as if he was afraid that she would slip away.
Zhao Anan leaned her head on Mu Qing''s shoulder and said in a low voice,"Qing, if I die ..."
Before she could finish her words, Mu Qing covered her mouth.
His eyes were red as he firmly said,"you won''t die!" If you die, I''ll die too. So if you don''t want me to die for you, you''d better Live!"
Zhao Anan was afraid that Mu Qing would lose his life too, so she said hurriedly,"Good, good, good, I''m alive!"
The nended in Germany and Mu Qing took Zhao Anan to the top anti-cancer Hospital in the world.
He had brought the new anti-cancer drug developed by family MU''s research Institute and the treatment n he had designed for Zhao Anan.
He had treated many cancer patients before. Some of them did not have a recurrence, while some of them did. This not only depended on the doctor''s medical skills, but also the type of cancer. For some cancer, as long as the focus was removed, there would be no problem. However, more patients would have cancer cell metastasis, which would greatly increase the difficulty of treatment.
The hospital in Germany not only had experienced doctors, but had also treated Zhao Anan twice. Mu Qing didn''t want to work alone. He wanted to work with the doctors here to operate on Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan''s doctor was not surprised to see her. He had always thought that there was a 99% chance that Zhao Anan would have a rpse, and the possibility that she would not.
He gave Zhao Anan a thumbs up after checking her and said in German, "You''re always right on time. The cancer cells haven''t spread yet, so your chances of survival are several times higher than others."
The doctor''s words would bring great hope to the patient. Some people would miraculously survive because of this hope.
Zhao Anan was no exception. She was very happy to hear what her doctor said, because doctors Germany rarely exaggerated. When he said that it was several times higher, it was indeed several times higher. He was not just saying it tofort her.
Zhao Anan stayed in the ward and Zhao Zhao arrived from the United States an hourter to keep her daughterpany.
Mu Qing started the fifteen-hour long discussion with the medical team Germany.
Mu Qing''s n and medicine had shocked the doctors Germany.
He had broken the traditional treatment n and adopted a new treatment method. This would be a major breakthrough and leap in the history of medical science.
Of course, his n was not perfect.
The cancer patients he hade into contact with were insignificantpared to the hospital in Germany that specialized in receiving cancer patients.
A group of doctors was carefully making their own suggestions for improvement. They were all very rigorous in doing things, and they would not easily use patients as test subjects, so the suggestions they made were all tested in practice.
The cancer cells were spreading at an rming rate, increasing by the day. Mu Qing did not dare to waste any time. He kept modifying the n and had asked the attending doctor to start the early suppression treatment.
Mu Qing didn''t want to cut off Zhao Anan''s child.| The womb was a very important organ for a woman. Without it, a woman would age rapidly and easily cause other diseases, which was not good for the body at all.
Moreover, even if the surgeon were to remove the patient''s liver| The cancer cells might have spread to other ces, so Mu Qing would not remove it until thest step.
Although Zhao Anan would l
ose the possibility of conceiving after the rpse, she was still a child.| He still had to leave the pce for her.
It was a part of her body, and Mu Qing was reluctant to perform such arge-scale organ removal.
Both he and the doctors in Germany thought that Zhao Anan could be cured without a hepatectomy.
The long treatment process began.
Zhao Anan started to lose weight again. She had to do all kinds of tests, tests and injections every day.
It was very painful, but she was used to it.
With Mu Qing around, he had reduced her pain to the minimum.
Chapter 799: Jing Rui chatting with her
Chapter 799: Jing Rui chatting with her
Compared to the previous treatments, Zhao Anan felt that this treatment was a blessing.
Not only did she have her mother to keep herpany, but she also had her husband to keep herpany.
Although the spread was constantly increasing, she still had a cheerful smile on her face every day.
Even if she were to die, she would face it with a smile.
But if she could live, she would do her best to live!
On the tenth day of Zhao Anan''s arrival in Germany, Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen came to visit her.
Shangguan ning didn''t know about Zhao Anan''s treatmentst time because it was kept a secret. Now that she knew about it, she had toe and keep herpany.
More importantly, she had brought Jing Rui, who was Zhao Anan''s favorite.
"Aiyo, my cute little nephew is here too! Come here, let your aunt give you a kiss!"
Zhao Anan said as she held Jing Rui and kissed his soft face.
Jing Rui wiped off the saliva on his face and looked at his aunt.""Have you brushed your teeth today?"
Zhao Anan was so angry that she almost fell over.
She pinched his toot little face angrily.""Hmph, you actually dare to despise me! Who taught you to be so bad? Is it your mother? She must be badmouthing me in front of you every day!"
"Aiyo, I''m so wronged. My son only asked if you''ve brushed your teeth, and you attacked me personally. That''s not very good, right?"
Shangguan ning was peeling an Apple for Zhao Anan by the bedside. She was speaking in an exaggerated tone, like a good mother who was protecting her child.
Zhao Anan liked Jing Rui very much, but she pretended to dislike him."Tsk, neither of you is a good person. Jing Rui is already so mean at such a young age. You might not be able to get a wife when you grow up!"
Before they came to the hospital, Shangguan ning had told Jing Rui several times to keep Zhao Ananpany so that she could recover faster.
Jing Rui agreed unwillingly.
He didn''t like to talk, especially those useless words. It was simply a torture for him to talk to his aunt, who had a low IQ!
However, his father had said that he should either not make any promises or keep his promise unless he was forced to.
If he broke his promise now, he would definitely be spanked by his father when he returned, because this was not a situation where he had no choice!
So, Jing Rui chatted with Zhao Anan."Do you think I''m handsome?"
Zhao Anan looked at him in surprise. Sheughed so hard at his question that her face almost cramped up. How could a two-year-old kid know what was handsome?
"I think he''s just average, far from your uncle!" She said deliberately.
Zhao Anan knew that Jing Rui had a high IQ and could not be treated like a normal child. She could not hurt him at all.
Whenever she saw Jing Rui, she would be reminded of Jing Yichen''s cold and arrogant look when he was a child. He always had a straight face and was not interested in what others said, as if he was a high-level alien.
Now Jing Rui was the same. He was so young, but he always looked like a quiet little adult, which made people want to tease him. &
nbsp;
Jing Rui grabbed the Apple that Shangguan ning had just peeled and bit into it with his sharp teeth. Then he said,"Mom, you shouldn''t have peeled an Apple for Auntie."
He looked so serious that both Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan could not figure it out.
Based on Shangguan ning''s understanding of her son, the first sentence must have something to do with the second sentence. What was more, Zhao Anan had just said that he was not as handsome as Mu Qing. He couldn''t have changed the topic so quickly.
.
Avoiding the problem?
NO, this was not his style!
Jing Yichen''s arrogant father would never teach Jing Rui to run away.
Shangguan ning felt that she was not smart enough to keep up with her son''s thinking.
However, she still yed along and asked,""Why can''t you peel an Apple for your aunt?"
Zhao Anan was also very curious,"yes, why?" I''m sick, so it''s only right for your mom to peel an Apple for me!"
"Oh, you should eat more carrots and spinach, thenplement it with the Jiju dihuang pill. The effect should be quite good."
What?
What the hell was that dihuang pill?
Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan were both confused.
Jing Rui''s teeth were not fully grown yet, so it was still difficult for him to eat an apple. He put the Apple into Zhao Anan''s hand and patted her arm. He shook his head helplessly."AI, not only are your eyes not good, but your brain is also not good. This Apple is for you, eat it! You have too many things to supplement, so forget it. Silly people have silly luck. "
What kind of situation was this? he waspletely despised by a little kid!
What did it mean that fools have fools ''luck!
Zhao Anan almost lost her temper.
This brat was even angrier than Jing Yichen when he was a child. Indeed, Like Father Like Son, not only were the two of them carved from the same mold in terms of appearance, but even their personalities were so simr!
But Shangguan ning understood what Jing Rui meant. He meant that Zhao Anan did not think he was handsome, but there was nothing wrong with her eyes.
Oh my God, she actually kidnapped so many people to y with, isn''t this a little brain-burning?
Shangguan ning burst intoughter at the sight of Zhao Anan''s angry face.
Aiya, her son was simply too smart! He was simply a top quarreling expert!
Zhao Anan was so angry that sheughed. He was usually quiet when she saw him, but when he spoke, he immediatelyughed at her for being stupid.
Jing Rui got out of Zhao Anan''s arms and jumped off the bed without Shangguan ning''s help. He walked out in his leather boots.
"Mom, it''s my first time overseas, so I''m going out for a walk."
"No!" Shangguan ning''sughter stopped.
What a joke. He had said it himself that it was his first time abroad. What if he went out alone and was kidnapped?
There were quite a few cases of child trafficking overseas!
Especially someone as pretty and cute as Jing Rui, those human traffickers would definitely have their eyes on him!<
/p>
Jing Rui seemed to know what Shangguan ning was thinking. He said calmly,""Don''t worry, no unlucky human trafficker would dare to target me. "
Zhao Anan burst intoughter when she heard him say "unlucky human trafficker."
Judging from Jing Rui''s behavior just now, it would be very bad if the human traffickers kidnapped him.
Jing Rui ignored his mother and aunt, who were still in a daze, and walked out of the room.
Shangguan ning got up immediately and went after him. But Jing Yichen walked in and said in a calmer tone than Jing Rui, "It''s fine. Just let him go out and y. Let him tour Germany by himself."
Chapter 800: The world of genius children
Chapter 800: The world of genius children
Oh my God, Shangguan ning had never seen a father who indulged his son in such nonsense. Jing Rui regarded himself as an adult, and Jing Yichen also regarded his son as an adult. Was she the only one who treated him, who was not even two years old, as a child?
"How can we do that? Ruirui is too young!" She panicked. We''ve never gone out to y alone, what if she falls and gets kidnapped?"
Jing Yichen looked at her with a smile."How do you know? he has never gone out alone."
"You let him go out on his own?" Shangguan ning''s eyes widened.
Jing Rui spent most of the day with Jing Yichen, and sometimes he would ask to go with Jing zhongxiu or Jing Tianyuan. When he was with his mother, it was almost at night.
So, if Jing Rui went out to y alone during the day, she would not have known.
Jing Yichen squeezed Shangguan ning''s hand and smiled.
"Yes, he often goes out to y. He''s still a child and is full of curiosity about the outside world, so I let him go out and explore by himself."
He said it so casually that it made Shangguan ning very anxious."You still know that he''s a child! No, no, I have to follow him. I can''t let him go out alone. If he wants to go out to y, we should bring him along. Otherwise, even if he doesn''t get kidnapped, the police will take him to the police station as a lost child. "
Jing Yichen stopped his wife who was about to leave and said in a low voice,"Alright, you don''t have to follow him. My people are following him! Ruirui is my son, how can I let him go out alone at such a young age? I''ve already taken all the necessary protective measures, don''t worry. "
Shangguan ning punched him hard and said angrily,"Why didn''t you tell me that you found someone to protect him! He made me worry for so long, he''s my baby!"
"Yes, it''s my fault. I thought you would have thought of the fact that I sent people to protect Ruirui, but you''re not as smart as Ruirui. He knows that I sent people to follow him. Hmm ... In the future, you should also drink the milk powder that nourishes your son''s brain every day. "
Just like Jing Rui, he was also making fun of Shangguan ning for being stupid.
Shangguan ning pinched his waist in anger. "You''re the one who needs to fill your brain! I don''t need it, I''m very smart!"
"Yes, yes, yes. You''re smart. Our son and I are too stupid!"
Zhao Anan, who was lying on the bed, couldn''t stand it anymore when she saw the couple standing at the door.
"Hey, hey, hey, that''s enough, you guys! Don''t you know that showing off your love will bring serious harm to the patient? I''m the patient, the patient, the patient! It''s immoral for you to treat a terminally ill patient like this! I''m going toin to my husband, saying that you two are bullying me!"
Shangguan ning burst intoughter and said,"well, we don''t know who is showing off their love.! Ever since a certain someone had a husband, she''s been talking about him all day. How sweet!"
>
Jing Yichen had gotten used to his wife and sister bickering every time they met. He ignored Zhao Anan and walked out of the ward.
There was nothing going on in the hospital and Jing Yichen didn''t need to worry about Zhao Anan''s illness. Mu Qing was the only one who could take care of her.
He was going to follow Jing Rui and protect his son. He had asked him to stop Shangguan ning from following him, but he was following Jing Rui himself. This was obviously double standard, but he didn''t even know it.
Jing Rui walked around the hospital and asked for directions in German. Everyone in the hospital thought that he was a Germany kid.
He was wearing blue denim overalls, a white sweater, a white down jacket, and a pair of ck leather boots. He looked clean and cute. The people in the hospital soon found out that a cute little angel hade to the hospital. They were all very friendly to Jing Rui and even gave him candy.
Jing Rui looked innocent and cute, but in fact, he was disdainful. He really didn''t have any sense of defense at all. If he was a spy, their hospital wouldn''t have any secrets at all! He had only gone around the hospital once, and he had already found out a lot of the hospital''s details. These people didn''t even avoid a little one like him.
Jing Yichen could see the disdain in his son''s eyes from a short distance away. He couldn''t help butugh. His son was so smart that he had seen through the tricks of others andined that they had no sense of confidentiality. But who would guard against a one-year-old child?
But Jing Rui could not enter some of the most important ces in the hospital. He put his hands in the pocket of his down jacket and walked out of the hospital onto the street.
He wasn''t afraid at all. Even if he was really on the streets alone, he wouldn''t be afraid. He only thought that it was quite fun.
Moreover, he knew very well that his father would follow him every time he went out. Whenever he encountered a situation that he couldn''t handle because he was too young, his father would appear directly. After solving the problem, he would hold his hand and walk with Him, taking him to y everywhere.
Jing Rui felt that he had the best father in the world who loved his son the most!
Children were full of energy, not to mention Jing Rui''s body was much stronger than ordinary people ''s. When he was still a fetus, his mother had been drinking the Golden medicinal wine, which had improved his body. After he was born, his parents were reluctant to drink it, so they left it all for him. So he had developed well and was very strong.
He walked and stopped. He would stop for a while when he saw someone who was curious or interesting. He even saw someone with a German-speaking parrot. He even spoke a few sentences in German to the parrot!
Jing Tianyuan had a talking parrot and Jing Rui had seen one before, but it was the first time he had seen a parrot that could speak German. He found it quite novel.
The man with the parrot was an old man from Germany. Seeing that Jing Ru
i was alone and so young, he asked him in German,""Child, are you lost? Where are your parents?"
Jing Rui''s clothes were expensive, and his manners showed that he was not a street boy.
Jing Rui did not want to talk to the old man at first, but he had just talked to his parrot, and it seemed inappropriate to turn around and leave.
"I''m not lost, I just came out to y,"he said briefly in German.
With that, he puffed out his chest and walked away with small steps.
When Jing Rui was far away, the old Germany man was still staring at him, as if he was afraid that Jing Rui would get lost.
Chapter 801: The setbacks in the growing process
Chapter 801: The setbacks in the growing process
Jing Rui did not know that a strange old man was worried about his safety in the cold wind. He strolled on the street alone, and went into all kinds of food stores, clothing stores, jewelry stores and the like.
This was because his father had said that these shops could reflect the current economic situation, and he could also discover many business opportunities and crises from them.
Although Jing Rui had no interest in starting apany, it did not stop him from learning a lot of things.
He looked around happily and found that the local customs Germany were very different from those in China. The buildings,nguage, cultural customs, eating habits, and so on were very different.
Unfortunately, he was too young and was not allowed to board any transportation tools like the subway or public bus Germany. He had wanted to experience it.
Thest time they took the bus in A city, it was his father who brought him there. As a result, as soon as they got on the bus, they caused a riot on the bus!
It was mainly because he and his father were too handsome. It couldn''t be helped. Being too handsome was also a burden these days. Those daughters who had strong and low-quality perfume on their bodies were desperately trying to squeeze around him and his father, and there were even women who wanted to kiss him!
This was simply intolerable!
Zhao Anan had kissed him, but she was still his aunt. He would break down if she was kissed by another woman.
The only thing he didn''t reject was his mother''s kisses. His mother''s body had a light fragrance and it smelled good. He quite liked his mother''s embrace.
It seemed that his father was the same. Other than his mother, he would not let anyone touch him, let alone kiss him!
Jing Rui never wanted to take the bus again after that experience.
However, he didn''t know what the public transport in Germany was like. Would it be as crazy as those women in city A?
Jing Rui stopped outside an amusement park as he was thinking.
Compared to the destion of other ces, this ce was very lively. There were many children ying with their parents. Of course, there were also many children crying.
He was small, but he was very eye-catching as he stood outside the gate of the amusement park.
People kepting to ask him if he had been separated from his parents. Even the patrol officers found him and came to ask if he needed help to send him back to his parents.
He politely refused.
Just as he was about to leave, a little beggar around ten years old walked up to him and asked,""Hey, do you have anything to eat? I''m so hungry, can I have something to eat? Or, you can give me more money. "
He was so small that Jing Rui had to raise his head to see his face.
The little beggar was wearing old clothes that were obviously one size bigger. He reached out his dirty hands and asked him for food, or rather, he was asking him for money.
The little beggar''s expression was very calm. It was obvious that he often begged with others. There was no shame or embarrassment on his face.
Jing Rui didn''t have any money with him. Shangguan ning was in charge of his daily life and she couldn''t possibly put money into his pocket when she dressed him. After all, he was too young to need to spend his own money on anything.
He thought for a moment and gave all the candie
s that the people in the hospital had given him to the little beggar.
He didn''t eat candy anyway, so she just gave them all out.
Jing Rui was not even two years old and had not experienced any setbacks or storms in his life. Although Jing zhongxiu and Jing Yichen had taught him to be cold and cruel, he was still too young and had a soft and kind heart.
He had his own parents who loved him, while this little beggar was only about ten years old and had alreadye out to beg. His life was much more difficult than his.
He feltpassion.
However, his act of kindness gave him a head-on blow!
.
The little beggar did not even say thank you when he got the candy. He pushed Jing Rui, who was much shorter than him, to the ground and took off his down jacket, which was worth more than 10000 Yuan. Not only did he take off his down jacket, but he also searched for change on his body with his dirty hands.
He had been observing Jing Rui for a long time and was sure that Jing Rui was alone. No adults were following him, so he decided to take action on this "little fat sheep".
Jing Rui was only one year old. How could he be a match for a ten-year-old?
He was pushed to the ground and had no strength to fight back!
He really hated this little beggar touching him!
A tall and cold figure appeared in front of Jing Rui and kicked the little beggar away.
He picked up Jing Rui, who was covered in mud, and wrapped him in his own coat. Then he said to the two men in ck coldly,""Kill him."
The little beggar was taken away soon, and Jing Rui knew what had happened to him.
In a young and slightly panicked voice, he said in a low voice,""Daddy."
Jing Yichen replied with a low "hmm," but he didn''tfort his son. He just used a white handkerchief to wipe off the dirt on his son''s hair and face.
Jing Rui was in a bad mood, lying in his father''s warm arms.
"I hate it when people touch me!"
"Yes, I know."
"I feel disgusted."
"Yes, I know."
"But, father, must we kill him?"
"Yes, I will. I won''t let anyone who dares to touch you off. You may not understand now, but you will in the future. "
"He died because of me."
"It''s fine. You''ll get used to it. There will be countless people who will die because of you in the future."
Jing Yichen''s voice was calm, but he was trying to suppress his anger.
Under his protection, Jing Rui had never been in any trouble. What happened today was a first.
He hated being touched more than anyone else, and he could understand Jing Rui''s disgust.
However, he did not kick the beggar away immediately because he wanted Jing Rui to remember that he should not help others easily and should be alert to the outside world.
Although he was a child now, he was destined not to be an ordinary person in the future. He could not do things like an ordinary person, or he would lose his life very quickly.
"It''s a good thing to experience the evilness of human nature earlier. In the future, there will be things thousands of times more dangerous waiting for you. There were many people who would not be nice to you just because you were nice to them. What those p
eople were best at was to stab you in the back. So, you don''t have to trust anyone except yourself. "
"Also, you have to remember that family Jing does not need to show any sympathy to anyone."
The warm embrace and the cold and sharp words formed a strong contrast.
Jing Yichen and Jing zhongxiu had said the same thing to Jing Rui, but he didn''t understand it very well before. It was only at this moment that he realized that his father and Grandpa were right.
"Dad, I was wrong."
Jing Yichen''s heart ached when he heard his young voice, felt his trembling body and saw his depressed look.
Chapter 802: Father and son playing
Chapter 802: Father and son ying
Jing Yichen didn''t care that his expensive coat was dirtied by the mud on his son. He wrapped his son tighter and kissed his son''s Red face.
"It doesn''t matter. You won''t make the same mistake again after missing it once. You''ve already done very well today. I''m proud of you. "
His voice was soft and full of fatherly love for the child. He was not stingy with his praise for Jing Rui.
He was different from Jing zhongxiu. No matter how much Jing zhongxiu liked him, he would not praise him. He would always belittle him to motivate him.
Jing Yichen had been traumatized by his father''s way of education. He had been longing for his father''s encouragement since he was a child. He felt that encouragement was more encouraging and warm than a blow.
Therefore, he encouraged Jing Rui most of the time. He would onlyin when Jing Rui did not do a good job.
His father''s encouragement and care soon healed Jing Rui''s broken heart.
However, he had grown up a lot since then. Moreover, this incident had left him with two obvious aftereffects: He hated being touched by others, cold-blooded.
The first time she showed kindness to someone, she was hit hard. This was more effective than any words and actions Jing Yichen had ever taught her.
Children''s world was usually filled with happiness, and unhappy things were usually forgotten very quickly.
With his father''s protection and encouragement, Jing Rui pulled himself together. He looked at the Ferris wheel of the amusement park and said excitedly,""Daddy, bring me in to y!"
Jing Yichen was still a child, but he was so full of energy now. He had been trying toe up with words tofort his son, but he didn''t need them at all.
He looked at the lively amusement park and a faint smile appeared on his face."Okay, daddy will take you to y."
As long as it was within his ability, Jing Yichen would agree to whatever Jing Rui wanted.
He could afford anything. Even if Jing Rui wanted to be King tomorrow, he could control a small country and let his son have a good time.
Jing Rui was still young, and he could do whatever he wanted. All the messes could be cleaned up by his father. He could just do whatever he wanted.
When he grew up and had to take on the responsibility of family Jing, he would stop messing around.
So Jing Yichen wanted his son to have a happy childhood.
"Oh, right. Dad, don''t tell mom about what happened today."
Jing Yichen smiled. His son had the same thought as him."Okay, I won''t tell her. She''ll be worried if she knows."
"Not only that, she won''t let me out to y anymore!"
So he was thinking abouting out to y!
Well, Jing Rui was still a child.
Entering the amusement park, Jing Yichen was dazzled by all kinds of strange amusement facilities, big and small.
Tiger showed up at the right time and gave Jing Yichen a ticket."Young master, you can y any attraction with the tickets."
After saying this, he disappeared into the crowd with Jing Yichen''s other men.
Jing Yichen s
tood there with the ticket in his hand, feeling a bit confused. He didn''t know which game he should take his son to y first.
.
He nced at the merry-go-round closest to him and decided to take his son to experience this boring ride first.
Getting off the merry-go-round, Jing Rui felt that it was boring. His Grandpa had taken him on a real horse before, and this kind of merry-go-round was nothing to him.
There was a bumper car next to the merry-go-round and Jing Yichen got in with his son.
The bumper karts were small, but Jing Yichen was tall. When he sat in the car, it looked very crowded and funny.
However, he was very good at driving and almost knocked over a few small cars around him, making the children cry.
Jing Rui pulled his father''s sleeve and ran away from the bumper karts area.
Why did he feel that his father was younger than him? he actually bumped into a child!
"Dad, you seem to be very unfamiliar with the amusement park. Didn''t Grandpa bring you here to y when you were young?"
Jing Yichen took off his coat and wrapped Jing Rui up in a thin suit and shirt.
"I''m extremely smart. I''ve never yed with such childish things,"he said indifferently.
Jing Rui was speechless. Who was the one fighting with the kid just now? He had scared her to tears! Fortunately, the parents of those children were not around. Otherwise, they would not be done with their father!
Why didn''t his grandfather bring his father to the amusement park to y? his father had to bask in his son''s glory before he coulde to the amusement park.
He patted Jing Yichen''s shoulder with his small hands and said in a sympathetic tone, "You''re so pitiful. "
Jing Yichen''s mouth twitched and his face turned dark.
He was actually sympathized by his son!
He had always been the young master of family Jing, and no one had ever said that he was pitiful.
However, this person was his own son, and he couldn''t be beaten or scolded. It was really ufortable.
However, he had a way to deal with this little rascal.
"Oh, it seems that you don''t want to continue ying. I''ll take you back to the hospital and let you chat with your aunt."
Jing Rui was shocked. He put on a ttering expression and showed his cutest side. He put his arms around Jing Yichen''s neck and said,"Please don ''t, dad! You''re the wisest father in the world, how can you push your own son into the arms of another woman? We''ve already bought the tickets and only yed two games, so we can''t waste them!"
"It''s okay. Your dad has nothing but money. This ticket is only a hundred euros. Just throw it away. "
Jing Rui grabbed the ticket and blinked his big beautiful eyes. He pouted his lips and kissed Jing Yichen. Then he said pitifully,"Dad, look at how much I love you. Don''t you love me anymore? Your son is so cute, how could you have the heart to reject such a small request from him?"
Jing Yichenughed so hard inside that he almost couldn''t keep a straight face.
In order to have fun, Jing Rui had used all kinds of tricks. Acting coquettishly, acting cute, an
d acting pitiful, she was really good at everything!
He had never nned to leave the amusement park, and since Jing Rui had already put on such a show, he took his son to y around the entire amusement park.
Some of the rides were forbidden to children under three years old, but Jing Yichen took Jing Rui to all the rides that were not harmful to his body.
With his ability, it was very easy to bribe the people in the amusement park.
It was the first time for the father and son toe to the amusement park. They found many things very fresh and exciting. They had so much fun that they forgot the time and the cold.
Chapter 803: Cotton candy cant save you
Chapter 803: Cotton candy can''t save you
The two of them yed until it was dark before they went back to the hospital. Before they went back, Jing Rui said to Jing Yichen excitedly,"Dad, how about you bring me here when I''m three years old?"
"Sure!" Jing Yichen agreed without hesitation.
The amusement park sold all kinds of food and toys. Jing Rui looked around and said,""Daddy, let''s buy a present for mommy and go home!"
He even knew to bring a gift back for his mother. Not bad, what a good son!
After Jing Rui and Jing Yichen left the hospital, Mu Qing went to Zhao Anan''s ward to check her condition.
Within a week, Mu Qing had lost a lot of weight. His face was more defined and he looked more handsome.
Although Zhao Anan''s condition was under control, she still needed more effort and treatment in order to have a chance to recover.
Mu Qing was under a lot of pressure. After all, he was going to treat the person he loved the most and it was rted to Zhao Anan''s life. He had to be very careful.
Luckily, Zhao Anan was very optimistic and never gave him any pressure. She would always smile when she saw him.
It was even more so after Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen came to visit her with Jing Rui.
He could hear Zhao Anan''s clearughter even before he entered the room.
He pushed the door open and walked in, smiling as he said,""What are you talking about? why are you so happy?"
Zhao Anan looked at him excitedly and told him all the interesting stories about Jing Rui that Shangguan ning had told him.
Mu Qing listened carefully and smiled from time to time.
He could feel Zhao Anan''s love for children from her words. It was not only because she was Jing Rui''s aunt, but also because she really liked children.
In the past, she used to think that children were annoying, but ever since she got married, her attitude had gradually changed.
It seemed that the old man''s decision to cultivate the embryo was correct.
"Oh, that''s right!"
Zhao Anan suddenly thought of something and asked Mu Qing, who was a doctor,"My little nephew wants me to eat more carrots and spinach, and he also wants me to eat some sort of dihuang pill. What does that mean?"
"Is it the Jiju dihuang pill?" Mu Qing asked with a smile.
"How did you know?" Zhao Anan asked in surprise.
Mu Qing burst intoughter."I guess your nephew must beining that your eyesight is not good. That''s why he made you eat these things. These are all for your eyes. They can improve your vision and reduce the soreness in your eyes!"
Zhao Anan thought for a while and finally understood.
Little Smarty, she probably wouldn''t even know if he scolded her or schemed against her in the future! He was exactly the same as Jing Yichen!
In the evening, when Jing Yichen came back with Jing Rui in his arms, Shangguan ning didn''t know whether tough or cry when she saw the gift her son had brought her.
Her son''s present for her was actually a cotton candy!
Did Germany also have cotton candy that was only popr in China? Where did this father and son buy it from?!
However, buying cotton candy was more suitable for her son''s age. It was m
.
uch more surprising than him buying a grenade for her!
Shangguan ning took the cotton candy happily, but soon found that her son''s down jacket was gone. He was wearing Jing Yichen''s coat, while Jing Yichen was only wearing a suit.
"Where are Ruirui''s clothes?"
She asked Jing Yichen in confusion.
"I lost it in the amusement park," Jing Yichen replied calmly.
"Oh, so you guys went to the amusement park."
Shangguan ning epted Jing Yichen''s exnation very quickly. It was very easy to lose clothes when ying in the amusement park. Sometimes it was because someone had taken the wrong clothes, and sometimes it was because she had left the clothes behind when she went to the next ce.
"Fortunately, I brought other clothes for Ruirui. Don''t lose them next time. His down jacket is worth more than 10000 Yuan! What if he gets frozen if he loses his clothes?"
"Aren''t you giving my clothes to our son?"
"I can''t even let you freeze!"
Jing Yichen smiled."Okay. I will be careful next time. I won''t lose any more clothes."
Zhao Anan waited for the couple to finish their conversation before she red at Jing Rui and said,"Little smarty-pants,e over here! I''ll spank you for mocking your aunt''s poor eyesight! Also, why is your mom the only one who has cotton candy? I''m a patient, a patient, you know? You should also bring gifts for the patients!"
Jing Rui was standing there alone, wearing Jing Yichen''s coat, which was hanging on the ground.
He looked at Zhao Anan and said,"You should nourish your brain. Cotton candy can''t save you."
Zhao Anan was so angry that sheughed.
This little thing, how could she always react so quickly! And his words could simply choke people to death!
She pulled out the needle, jumped out of bed and tried to catch Jing Rui.
Jing Rui threw his father''s coat away and ran out.
Zhao Zhao came back with a big bag of fruits and vegetables. Seeing Zhao Anan chasing after Jing Rui, she called out to her, not knowing whether tough or cry."Anan, how old are you? don''t you feel embarrassed? why are you still messing around with Ruirui?"
"Ruirui,e back!" She turned to Jing Rui."It''s cold outside!" With great-aunt here, your aunt won''t dare to chase you. Come quickly, I bought you your favorite cheese. "
Zhao Anan wailed,"Oh my God, mom, are you even my real mother?" I''ve been bullied to death by this little rascal, and you''re still speaking up for him and even buying him food. Do you want him to eat his fill so that he''ll have the strength to anger me?"
Zhao Zhao stuffed a bag of fruit into her hands.""Hurry up and go back to your room! Ruirui is so young, and you''re his aunt, don''t you know how to give in to him? how far can he bully you? You can just let him bully you!"
Jing Rui stood in the corridor and said in a clear voice,""Did you hear that, aunt? Great-aunt said,"just let me bully you!""
Zhao Anan red at him and followed Zhao Zhao into the ward. Sheined as she walked,"Mom, you made me too stupid! Jing Rui is so smart, I can''t beat him! It''s fine that you''ve been crushed by my brother since you were young, but now you''re being crushed by his son. Did you not eat walnuts when you were pregnant?"
Zhao Zhao was both angry and amus
ed."What does it have to do with me? you''re the one who''s too stupid!" She said. I was the top student in the school when I took the exam. I didn''t even get second ce. What about you?"
Zhao Anan giggled and held her arm as they entered the house. Shangguan ning carried Jing Rui in as well.
While they were talking in the room, Zhao Anan''s attending doctor and a few assistants came to check on her.
The attending doctor was German, one of the four deputies was French, one was American, and the other two were also German.
The threenguages, which were spoken in English, French, and German, gave Zhao Anan a headache.
Chapter 804: The genius child
Chapter 804: The genius child
Zhao Anan''s English was quite good. She could understand some German, but not French.
Jing Rui, who was in Shangguan ning''s arms,ughed at her."Aunt, you''re so stupid!"
Zhao Anan red at him."You''re so smart. Why don''t you be my trantor?"
Shangguan ning, who had intended to trante for him, immediately shut her mouth. She would leave the opportunity to her son. Jing Rui had learned all threenguages and would talk to him in them at home, but he had never had the chance to talk to a foreigner. It was a good time to test the results of his learning.
Jing Rui said,"sure, I can be your trantor, but you have to pay me. Since you are my aunt, I won''t charge you too much. 500 dors per hour will do."
Zhao Anan looked at the little girl in Shangguan ning''s arms, dumbfounded."How did you two educate your child? All the money ising to me! As far as I know, your family already has so much money that you can''t even burn it all!"
But 500 dors was nothing to Zhao Anan. Besides, her mother was paying for the meal, so she didn''t need to spend any money.
"Little money-grubber, I promise you. Hurry up and trante it. If you do it well, I''ll pay you double. Right, mom?"
Zhao Zhaoughed."That''s right. Ruirui, you tranted it well. I''ll give you a thousand dors!"
Shangguan ning didn''t stop Jing Rui from taking her money. He deserved to be paid for his hard work. She wouldn''t dampen his enthusiasm. They were family after all and Zhao Zhao and Zhao Anan wouldn''t scheme for money.
Hearing that they had agreed to pay, Jing Rui really became an interpreter.
He was able to speak the fournguages fluently, which shocked Zhao Anan and Zhao Zhao, as well as Zhao Anan''s attending doctor and assistant doctor.
The doctors all looked at him in amazement. Jing Rui was still calm andposed even in front of so many people.
Gic inheritance was very powerful. Jing Yichen was born to be fearless, and Jing Rui hadpletely inherited his father''s personality, so he was able to handle such a situation with ease.
The doctor wanted to touch Jing Rui''s head, but he dodged and said,""Please respect me and don''t touch me!"
Everyoneughed at him, and only the attending doctor apologized to him very seriously,""I''m very sorry. I was wrong just now. I hope the little gentleman can forgive me."
He was very surprised by Jing Rui''s intelligence and talent.
How old was this child in front of him? Two? Or one and a half years old?
However, he could actually speak three foreignnguages fluently and knew how to ask others to respect him. Such a smart child could no longer be described as a genius.
He only hesitated for a moment before making a decision.""Child, do you want to learn medical skills from me?"
His four assistants were stunned when they heard that.
The attending doctor was one of the world''s top doctors. Not only had he saved many lives, but he had also created his own unique medical path. He invented many advanced surgical me
thods and sessfully developed many new drugs. It was also because of his great contribution to human health that he won the Nobel Prize in Medicine twice.
He was a true leading figure in the medical world.
However, such a legendary man was never married and had no children. He had never epted a true apprentice. His assistants were at most his students, not his apprentices.
He actually wanted to take a little one as his disciple?
This child only showed a strong talent innguage. His medical talent might not be that good, right?
Wouldn''t it be a little hasty to ept a disciple like this?
However, what the four assistants found even more difficult to understand was that the child''s father, the tall man who was so cold that he almost did not say a word, directly refused!
He refused without any hesitation,"No, he doesn''t need it."
Surprisingly, the attending doctor, who had always had a bad temper, did not get angry. He even smiled and said,"When you guys change your mind, you cane and find me anytime."
He knew Jing Yichen. It was Jing Yichen who had sent Zhao Anan here for treatment, which showed how much Jing Yichen trusted him.
Family Jing was an ancient family and the doctor had heard of it before. He knew how powerful Jing Yichen was and what Jing Rui would be in the future.
He did not insist, but he was moved by Jing Rui''s intelligence.
Mu Qing had thought that Jing Yichen would agree, but he had turned him down.
After these few days of contact, he had already deeply felt that this attending doctor''s medical attainments had far surpassed his!
After all, he was always distracted by other things, especially emotional matters.
However, in order to be able to devote himself to medical research, this doctor did not get married at all. He ate and lived in the hospital. He had really dedicated himself to the medical career.
If Jing Rui had such a Medical Master as his teacher, his future achievements in the medical field would be immeasurable!
No, he had to talk to Jing Yichenter. He would not take in any apprentices easily. If Jing Rui was chosen, he should be sent to study. It was such a good opportunity that even he was envious.
Although Shangguan ning also felt that it was a waste not to let Jing Rui learn from the top doctors in the world, she would listen to Jing Yichen when it came to Jing Rui''s education.
She believed in Jing Yichen''s love for her son and that he had a reason for every decision he made.
However, as a mother, she was naturally happy that her son was recognized by a leading medical figure at such a young age.
She patted her son''s head affectionately, full of anticipation for his growth.
After the doctors left, Jing Yichen carried Jing Rui to a private room.
Shangguan ning had brought some clothes for Jing Rui, but they were all kept in a hotel not far from the hospital. Tiger had just picked them up and sent them over.
He carefully helped his son change into a new set of clothes, then soaked a towel in hot water and gently wiped his son''s hands and face.
"Father," Jing Rui said calmly,"you have taken all of mother''s work. She has nothing to do now."
Jing Yichen burst intoughter."Who said that it is mom''s job to clean your face and change your clothes?"
He touched his son''s little face and said softly,""She suffered a lot when she gave birth to you and almost lost her life. I couldn''t help her at that time, but now I should share her burden. Besides, taking care of you is a blissful thing. Can''t you allow a father to enjoy more bliss?"
Chapter 805: Im too naive
Chapter 805: I''m too naive
Jing Rui blinked and said,""Alright, you''re too good. I can''t win in an argument against you."
Putting on clothes and wiping his face, his father could alreadye up with so much logic. He was still too inexperienced!
He had to learn more in the future. Otherwise, how could he defeat his father and protect his mother?
Jing Yichen put on his clothes for him and asked seriously,"Do you want to study medicine?"
"Aiya, dad, you only thought of asking for my opinion now? I thought you were a dictator!" Jing Rui said to his father.
Jing Yichen smiled and said while looking into his son''s clear eyes, "You''re right, I''m a dictator. However, within the scope of the dictator, you have a certain right to choose. Before you turn 18, you have to follow the n that your grandfather and I made. After you turn 18, you''ll have more freedom. "
Jing Rui thought for a while and said seriously,""Yes, I''ve decided to listen to you. Even if I don''t listen, you definitely won''t agree! Hmph, dictator!"
Jing Yichen was amused by his serious and cute look. But he said in a positive tone,"You don''t like to study medicine."
"Dad, I already know that you''re very smart. Can you stop showing off in front of me?"
He really didn''t have much interest in studying medicine. His father and grandfather had also said that he didn''t need to know too much profound medical knowledge. It was enough to know some basic ones.
Of course, the "basic" that they mentioned was definitely not basic. If he learned the medical knowledge, he could also be a doctor.
Jing Rui loved guns more than scalpels, so he did not want to be a doctor.
Moreover, his judgment on many things was seriouslycking at the moment. His father was so smart, so he definitely knew more about what to learn. He just had to listen to him.
It wouldn''t be toote to resist when he had the ability and strength to do so in the future!
In the ward, Zhao Anan''s heart was broken by her nephew.
"Oh my God, he''s so smart at such a young age, how can he let people live? Aiyo, I''ll just die quickly and reincarnate!"
"Nonsense again!" Zhao Zhao immediately red at her.
Zhao Anan had been talking about life and death all the time, especially when she was in the hospital.
At first, Zhao Zhao had scolded her severely, but as Zhao Anan said more, she was not so afraid of the word "death."
Zhao Anan liked to joke about herself every day when she woke up.
"Mom, why am I not dead yet?"
"Oh my, I see the sun again. I thought I was dead and had gone to the King of Hell to eat steak!"
"Eh, how am I still alive? my life force is extraordinarily tenacious! Mom, my dad is actually a cockroach, right? Have you been hiding this important fact all this time?"
Zhao Zhao''s fear of losing her daughter would dissipate every time she heard Zhao Anan talk nonsense. Now that she had said "die," she f
elt much calmer.
"It''s a good thing that your nephew is smart. Do you want him to be stupid?"
Zhao Anan nodded immediately."Yes, I hope he is as stupid as possible. Then I can y with him. I don''t want to be yed by him."
Shangguan ningforted her with a smile. "You''re very smart. You were very sessful as a principal. University of X''s ranking in the country has risen by more than ten ces. This is not easy. "
Zhao Anan shook her head and said,"well, what does that have to do with me?" It''s all thanks to my brother''s huge schrship!"
Comfort didn''t work?
Fine then, he always forced her to use her ultimate moves, really! Can''t you just talk to this girl properly?
"Hey, when did you be so modest? Alright, you''re indeed stupid. I take back what I said about you being smart! My son is so smart that he can be a trantor at such a young age. Auntie, you should pay up!"
Zhao Anan recovered immediately. She shouted,"Words that have been spoken are like water that has been spilled, how can you take them back? I''m still very smart, it''s your son who''s too perverted. Not to mention me, how many people canpare to him! Haha, as for the money, I can go back on my word!"
Jing Rui heard that Zhao Anan was going to go back on her words as soon as he came in with Jing Yichen. He said seriously,"AI, the trust between people is really fragile. I was too naive to actually believe her! Dad, you were right before, we can''t help before we see the benefits. There are too many scoundrels in this world!"
Zhao Anan was so angry that she almost fell over. He used to be a taciturn man, but once he opened his mouth, he could choke people to death. He wasn''t a one-year-old child. He was an old demon who had lived for hundreds of years! Did he even know how to attack the heart, or was there something he didn''t know?
The little boy had already made it so clear that she had to pay up. She did not want to beughed at by Jing Rui for being a Rascal.
"Mom, hurry up and give him the money. If you don''t give him the money, I''ll lose all my face as his aunt!"
Zhao Zhao was very happy to see her daughter being defeated. She only knew how to mess around all day, and it was not easy for Jing Rui to cure her.
She took out a thousand dors from her wallet and handed it to Jing Rui.""Ruirui, this is your reward."
Jing Rui took it without hesitation andughed at Zhao Anan."Auntie, you''re already so big, why are you still spending mom''s money? I can make money, so why can''t you?"
Zhao Anan had beenpletely defeated by the little guy. She had lost to her nephew.
However, she liked to bicker with Jing Rui, which was the most interesting thing she had ever done during her illness.
They had dinner together that night. Zhao Anan''s provocative voice and Jing Rui''s innocent and cute voice could be heard at the table.
The next morning, when Shangguan ning helped Jing Rui change his clothes, Jing Rui was very displeased.
"Mom, can you not let me wear thi
s kind of clothes that only mentally disabled children wear? I don''t think I''m suitable for this style!"
Shangguan ning retorted as she tidied his clothes."Nonsense, I''ve been wearing this kind of clothes since I was young. It''s called childlike fun, not stupid!"
Jing Rui stood in front of the mirror and looked at his childish outfit. He sighed like a little man.
"It''s fine if the hoodie is pink, I can tolerate it if there''s two big ears and a furry nose on the hoodie, but, mom, what''s with the tail on the back of the pants? Am I going to be a Vixen? Your son is indeed very smart, but there''s no need to express this so clearly to others, right?"
Chapter 806: You didnt transmigrate, right?
Chapter 806: You didn''t transmigrate, right?
Shangguan ning burst intoughter. What her son said seemed to be true. He looked like a little pink Fox in this dress.
She pulled her son to the front, back, left, and right and said confidently,""I think it''s very good, and it suits you very well! You''re just a child, you should dress like this!"
Jing Rui was not picky about what he wore. He would wear whatever his mother bought him.
However, this outfit really didn''t match his temperament as a genius child!
He looked at his father, who was dressed in a suit and leather shoes,ing out of the bathroom. He pointed at him and said,""Mom, I want to wear something like Dad ''S. I don''t want to wear this. It''s too ugly! Also, my Grandpa said that pink is for girls. You can''t buy me pink clothes anymore. I''m a boy, you should know this!"
Jing Yichen couldn''t help but smile when he saw his son dressed up like a little cutie by his wife. "It''s fine. You''re still young, so you can wear any color. And ..."
Shangguan ning kept staring at him, threatening him.
Under the threat of his wife, Jing Yichenplimented her against his will."And your mother has good taste. This dress suits you very well!"
Shangguan ning nodded in satisfaction, but Jing Rui said unhappily,"Dad, you paused for a second just now and looked at mom''s face. It''s obvious that you''re lying. I don''t look good in this dress. Dad, is it really good for you to be so henpecked?"
Shangguan ning patted her son''s butt and said, "It''s not good for you to sow discord between your father and me!"
But Jing Yichen said generously,"your mother is the one who has the final say. She is always right. If she is wrong, then it is not her fault. I must have heard it wrong."
Jing Rui was speechless. He shook his head and took Shangguan ning''s hand. He patted it and said,"Mom, you''ve really married a good husband! My father was definitely not like this in the past. He was so cold to others. How did you teach him? I really admire you! Or is it because you saved the earth in your past life?"
Shangguan ningughed so hard that her stomach hurt. How could Jing Rui''s little head contain so many things? all he could say was golden words!
"Son, are you sure you''re not an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years?"
Listen, what are you saying? is this what a mother should say?
He was just a little smarter, a little cuter, and a little more handsome, right?
How could he say that he had lived for a few hundred years? he had not even spent more than three years in his mother''s womb!
"Mom, don''t watch those trashy time-travel dramas anymore. You''ve been brainwashed!"
After breakfast, Jing Rui went to the hospital with his mother, while his father was busy with other things.
Jing Rui really wanted to follow his father, but his mother would not allow it, because his father seemed to have gone to kill someone today. His mother said that it was not suitable for children and insisted on taking him to the hospital.
Really, it was terrible to have a strict wife as a father. He only listened to his wife and didn''t care about his son''s life!
He w
as originally handsome and beautiful, like a doll. Now that he was wearing a "child''s fun" outfit that could make all women fall for him, there were simply too many women who threw him flirtatious looks!
Please, he didn''t even have all his teeth. Could these women be more reserved and rational?
The most unreserved one was his aunt!
She grabbed his tail, Oh, no, the tail on his clothes, and insisted on kissing him.
It seemed that he hadn''t hit his aunt hard enough yesterday!
"Auntie, do you like my pants?" he asked.
Zhao Anan said without thinking,"I like it, I like it so much! Your mom really has good taste. You look so cute in it!"
It seemed that his mother''s intelligence was on the same level as his aunt ''s.
Jing Rui took off his pants with a tail slowly and folded it, then put it in Zhao Anan''s hand."If you like it, I''ll give it to you. I don''t want your money."
Zhao Anan was stunned and her smile froze on her face.
What was going on?
Why did this clever little girl suddenly change her mind today?
Was he trying to set her up?
Seeing Zhao Anan holding Jing Rui''s pants helplessly, Shangguan ningughed so hard that tears almost came out.
Obviously, Zhao Anan had been tricked by Jing Rui again.
He really hated that pair of pants, so he asked Zhao Anan if she liked it so that he could give it to her.
Seeing Shangguan ningughing so hard, Zhao Anan knew that she had fallen into a trap again.
She quickly returned the pants to Jing Rui."Look at you. How could you give your pants away?" she said. It''s not like I can fit in it, so hurry up and put it on, don''t catch a cold!"
She had changed her style and was acting like a good aunt who loved her nephew. She did not look like she was going to fight with Jing Rui.
Little brat, I''ll change if you change! Let''s see who can change more!
She couldn''t even win against a child who wasn''t even two years old. How could she live?
"Mom gave me warm pants today, so I''m not cold at all. I''m giving this pair of pants to you not for you to wear, but for your children to wear. "
Zhao Anan was shocked. She opened her eyes wide."You know that I''ll have a child in the future? Even I don''t know. You''re too good at joking!"
Jing Rui was different from ordinary children. He must have known about her condition and all the possible consequences.
Yesterday, when The Five Doctors were discussing her condition, he was the trantor throughout the whole process. He knew the difficult medical terms very well, so he definitely knew what cancer meant.
However, perhaps he was still too young?
Otherwise, he wouldn''t have said such things.
This time, her condition had rpsed. Even without the attending doctor''s warning, she knew that it waspletely impossible for her to conceive.
Zhao Anan didn''t know the inside story, but Shangguan ning did.
She
was afraid that Jing Rui would spill the beans again, so she quickly picked him up and put his pants back on.
"I spent so much time and energy to buy you these pants. How could you just give them away like that? I''m so sad."
Shangguan ning changed the topic immediately, because Jing Rui knew more than she did. He often visited Jing Tianyuan, who was always with mu Wensheng. It was normal for Jing Rui to know about thetest development of the embryo from them.
But this was kept from Zhao Anan, because it might not be a sess. When it was carried out, Zhao Anan and Mu Qing were not married yet and she had not agreed to the breeding of the embryo.
Chapter 807: A single man and woman going abroad
Chapter 807: A single man and woman going abroad
Jing Rui knew that Zhao Anan was not aware of it, so he only said one thing.
He put on the pants with the tail unwillingly and cut off the tail secretly when Shangguan ning wasn''t looking.
What kind of aesthetic taste did his mother have? she actually bought pants with tails. How weird and awkward! He had to sit askew when he sat down, otherwise, he would be hit by the tail.
Shangguan ning spent a week with Zhao Anan in Germany with Jing Rui, but she had never worn the children''s clothing that Jing Rui despised.
Shangguan ning wanted to make her son look cuter and more childish, but Jing Rui didn''t like it. Besides, it would attract too much attention, so she didn''t force him to wear it.
Jing Yichen had ordered a suit and shirt that were exactly the same as Jing Rui ''s, as well as a small coat.
When Jing Rui put it on, his noble temperament immediately stood out, which was apletely different style from when he was wearing children''s clothes.
He looked like a little English gentleman in his suit.
Seeing the Father and son standing there in the same clothes and having almost the same face, Shangguan ning felt an indescribable warmth in her heart.
The happiness that her husband and son brought her filled her heart to the brim.
Jing Rui liked his new clothes very much. He put his arms around Jing Yichen''s neck and gave his father a kiss. He said happily,"Dad, you have good taste. A genius like me should wear this kind of clothes!"
The suit and coat cost more than 100000 Yuan, but Shangguan ning thought it was too expensive, because Jing Rui was growing fast. In a few months, this suit worth more than 100000 Yuan would not be able to fit him anymore. It was such a waste.
But Jing Yichen didn''t think so.
As long as his son liked it, it didn''t matter if he wasted a little. He had a lot of money anyway, and he worked so hard to earn money. Wasn''t it for the sake of supporting his wife and child?
Seeing Jing Rui''s rare happiness, Jing Yichen felt that the money had been well spent.
Jing Yichen didn''t find it wrong for his son to call himself a genius. His son was a genius and he should be proud of himself.
In the world of family Jing, there was no such thing as "modesty."
They were already standing at the top of the pyramid, the Kings of Kings, so there was no need to be humble.
"I also think that this style suits you very well. We''ll wear this style in the future! Geniuses should wear custom-made suits at sky-high prices. Your clothes will be handed over to your father in the future. Your mother can retire. "
Shangguan ning felt very helpless about Jing Yichen''s one-sided "retirement."
He loved the child so much that Jing Rui would buy whatever he wanted and let him do whatever he wanted.
Jing Rui did look good in this suit, but it was too expensive. A set of clothes cost more than 100000 Yuan, and he still had to change into them. He couldn''t wear the same set every day. As he grew up, he had to keep buying new ones. The money spent on this would be an astronomical figure!
Well, Jing Yichen was not the only one who was rich. She had tens of billions of assets now, so it was not a problem for her son to wear clothes.
She only had one precious son now, and she couldn''t wait to give him all the best things in the world.
A weekter, Jing Yichen''s family of three returned to A city.
Zhao Anan didn''t want them to leave, but she had to stay in Germany for at least three months. She couldn''t let them stay there all the time.
In fact, Shangguan ning was even more reluctant than Zhao Anan, because she was afraid that this would be thest time they would see each other.
She promised Zhao Anan that she would bring Jing Rui to see her again in half a month, which made Zhao Anan feel much better.
However, Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun arrived right after Shangguan ning left.
They had agreed to go to see Zhao Anan separately.
Zheng Lun had rarely been so far away from home in her life. Apart from the time when she attended Shangguan ning''s wedding, this was the first time that she had gone abroad for the third time.
Moreover, she had begged her mother, PEI Xinhua, for a long time when she went abroad.
It was not that PEI Xinhua didn''t want her daughter to visit her sick friend, but she had never asked Zheng Lun to be so far away from her. She was very worried that something might happen to her.
Even though Zheng Jing had promised that he could take good care of Zheng Lun, PEI Xinhua was still worried.
In fact, with Zheng Jing apanying Zheng Lun, PEI Xinhua was even more worried.
Because it was easy for things to go wrong when they were alone!
A man and a woman going to apletely unfamiliar country together, something would happen even if it wasn''t supposed to.
As it turned out, a mother''s intuition was often the most urate.
After PEI Xinhua softened her heart and agreed to let her daughter go on a long journey, the son and daughter had already gone further and further away from each other on the road of love.
Zhao Anan tried her best to y matchmaker when she saw the two of theming to see her.
She took Zheng Lun''s hand and said,"Lun, you can take more initiative! Don''t be afraid, bravely pursue your true love!"
Why did these words sound like they were used to coax children?
Zheng Lun smiled gently and said nothing.
The problem between her and Zheng Jing was not about who took the initiative, but about their identity as siblings. It was an insurmountable gap.
There was no good solution to this matter for the time being. His parents, rtives, and friends of the Zheng and PEI families would not agree to their marriage.
Legally, they were siblings. Unless her household register was removed from the Zheng family, there was no way for her to register her marriage.
And if she really wanted to be independent from the Zheng family''s household register just to marry Zheng Jing, it would be no different from stabbing her parents in the heart.
Zhao Anan thought that she was too timid to seduce Zheng Jing, so she smiled slyly and said,"Alright, leave this matter to me. I''ll definitely make the raw rice be cooked rice!"
Zheng Lun had seen Zhao Anan''s tricks before, so she said in a hurry,"No, no, no, it''s fine. My brother and I are fine like this. I don''t want too much!"
"Don''t worry. Mu Qing has all kinds of drugs for men. It will not hurt your body. And you don''t need to drug him. I will drug Zheng Jing, in case he gets angry with you. "
Zhao Anan was so excited that she had even forgotten the pain that she had suffered from the drugs and chemotherapy.
This was the first time she had done something so meaningful. She had to seed!
Zheng Lun handed the washed blueberry to Zhao Anan and said seriously,"Anan, please don''t do that. Don''t drug my brother. It''s better for us to be siblings. I''m already very happy to have a brother like him. I can''t ask for too much."
Chapter 808: Temptation
Chapter 808: Temptation
"Besides, we''re siblings. Marriage is uneptable."
Zheng Lun told Zhao Anan the reason, but she didn''t think it was a big problem.
"What secr or not, you want to marry the person you like, what does it have to do with those people! Those people really have nothing better to do. They only need to take care of themselves, they don''t get paid to take care of others!"
Zhao Anan had always been a deviant. She was used to being arrogant and never cared about what others thought of her.
"Besides, you two aren''t biological siblings. What''s there to be afraid of? Alright, you have to listen to me. Get pregnant first and then your mother will force you to marry Zheng Jing. "
Zheng Lun looked at Zhao Anan in shock.
"No, no, I can ''T. I''ll be aughingstock if I get pregnant before marriage. I''ll embarrass my parents. How can they face others in the future?"
"Um ... Isn''t that a bad idea?"
"This is a bad idea!"
Zheng Lun said with certainty.
"Alright, you don''t have to worry about me. My brother will always love me anyway. I''ll always be his little sister. You''d better take good care of your body and improve your immunity. "
Zhao Anan had lost a lot of weight, which made people''s hearts ache.
Zheng Lun hoped that Zhao Anan would get better so that they could go shopping and chat with each other in the future.
She didn''t have many good friends, and if she lost one more, she would be sad for a long time.
Zheng Lun couldn''t help but admire Zhao Anan''s strength and courage when she saw her taking the medicine like it was her lunch.
If she had such an illness, she would probably cry to death in a few days.
Zhao Anan was not very energetic at the moment. Her hair started to fall off after the chemotherapy, which made her feel tired easily. But she couldn''t stop the chemotherapy, or the disease would spread faster.
The medicine that Mu Qing had developed had actually reduced the frequency of chemotherapy to arge extent, which had preserved Zhao Anan''s bodily functions and prevented her from losing all her hair.
Zheng Lun had been talking with Zhao Anan for the whole day. When she took a nap every now and then, Zheng Lun would talk to Zheng Jing while she was sleeping.
She liked to follow Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing had been with Mu Qing all the time. He didn''t pay much attention to Zheng Lun except for talking to Zhao Anan from time to time.
He wanted Zheng Lun to be more independent and to be happy even without him.
But every time Zheng Lun came to see him, it was the happiest moment of his life.
The two of them were used to relying on each other since they were young, so they would feel a little awkward without each other by their side.
They returned to the hotel together at night.
Zheng Jing didn''t call for a taxi. Instead, he took Zheng Lun along the neat and clean streets of Germany.
As they walked, the two of them shook hands.
The man was tall and handsome, while the woman was beautiful and gentle. They walked on the exotic road, attracting the attention of passers-by.
Zheng Jing looked like a European. His facial features were well-defined and his eyes were deep. He was tall and strong like a European. In the eyes of Germany girls, he was the most handsome man. So he got many beautiful girls ''smiles and looks along the way.
Zheng Lun also received a lot of attention from the handsome Germany boys. It was not because she looked European, but because she was an Oriental Beauty. She was gentle and beautiful, with ck hair and ck eyes. Such an Oriental Beauty was very popr in Europe.
Zheng Jing was very calm in front of all the women, but Zheng Lun felt a little embarrassed. The enthusiasm of the Europeans was obvious. Even when she was standing next to Zheng Jing, those women would still whistle at her, making her feel embarrassed.
Therefore, Zheng Jing''s hand that was holding Zheng Lun''s hand soon became her waist.
And he held Zheng Lun tightly, as if he was afraid that she would be taken away by another man.
They were in the most intimate position like a couple and it worked. Many people stopped whistling at the beautiful Zheng Lun.
When they got back to the hotel, Zheng Lun''s little face had turned as red as a ripe tomato because of shyness.
They had booked two rooms, but Zheng Jing didn''t go back to his room. Instead, he held Zheng Lun and went to her room.
He pressed Zheng Lun against the door of the hotel and started to kiss her wildly.
Zheng Lun almost lost herself in his kiss. She held Zheng Jing''s broad waist tightly and soon felt a part of his body that had be hard.
Zheng Jing forced himself to stop after the passionate kiss.
He wanted Zheng Lun so badly!
However, he had to control himself. Their first time should be perfect and blissful, not sneaky like this.
Zheng Jing didn''t even dare to touch Zheng Lun''s soft and beautiful white Rabbit. She was so attractive to him that he didn''t know what he would do next.
Zheng Lun was innocent, but she knew a thing or two about sex.
She knew that Zheng Jing was trying to protect her and respect her. He was enduring it with superhuman perseverance.
With his most important part being held by the woman he loved, all the blood in Zheng Jing''s body rushed to his lower body. He growled,"Qiqi, don''t move!"
If she continued to act like this, he would not be able to control himself!
In fact, Zheng Lun had been so embarrassed that she let go of his hand subconsciously when she heard him.
After a while, Zheng Jing didn''t express his desire.| He let go of Zheng Lun and went into the bathroom quickly. He took a cold shower for half an hour before he recovered.
Seeing himing out of the bathroom all wet, Zheng Lun was very distressed.
"Brother, you''ll catch a cold easily like this."
Zheng Jing squeezed her hand and said in a low voice, "I''m fine. I''ll go back and change my clothes first. I''ll be back to apany youter. "
Being in a foreign country, Zheng Lun was too timid to sleep in an empty hotel room alone.
So even though they had booked two rooms, Zheng Jing would still sleep with her at night.
Zheng Lun didn''t want to stay in the room alone. She followed Zheng Jing back to his room to get changed.
Zheng Jing didn''t stop her. He even wiped her body and changed her clothes in front of Zheng Lun, which made her scream and turn around immediately.
"Brother, why don''t you go to the bathroom to change? You''re so annoying!"
She had seen Zheng Jing''s entire body just now.
Moreover, she realized that she couldn''t help but look at a certain part of her brother!
Chapter 809
Chapter 809: I want to marry her (part one)
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng Luns face started to heat up!
Oh my God, how could this be!
How did she be such a woman? she had never looked at a mans private part before!
Was she crazy?
But Zheng Jing was a thick-skinned man. He was not embarrassed at all, but was smiling happily.
When he was done, he hugged Zheng Lun from behind and chuckled.I thought you followed me here to see me undress, so I undressed. I didnt expect that I would misunderstand!
Zheng Lun stomped her feet in embarrassment. You are so shameless. Who is here to see you undress? she said. Im here to ... Um ... Follow you ...
Even Zheng Lun felt that this reason was not valid.
Zheng Jing didnt argue with her. Zheng Lun was already very embarrassed and he couldntugh at her anymore, or she would be too embarrassed to raise her head.
He picked up Zheng Lun and carried her to the bed. He put her on the bed and thenid down on it.
But he didnt dare to have too much physical contact with Zheng Lun, in case he made a mistake.
Sleeping with Zheng Lun was both a pain and a pleasure. Zheng Jing felt that his willpower must have improved by a lot. If he went back to the military school to take the willpower training, he would be able to defeat everyone except for Jing Yichen.
But what Zheng Jing didnt know was that Jing Yichen was not as good as he was when it came to dealing with the woman he loved.
If he and Shangguan ning were as close as they were just now, he wouldnt be able to control himself. He wouldnt take a cold shower alone. He would take Shangguan ning with him.
He had stayed in Germany with Zheng Lun for seven days. Zheng Jing had controlled himself and endured the torture of love.
Luckily, Zheng Lun had told Zhao Anan not to drug Zheng Jing, otherwise Zheng Jing would really have taken Zheng Lun under the influence of the drug.
After the brother and sister returned to the country, the first thing PEI Xinhua did was to look at her daughter and sons expressions. Although they were still very intimate, they seemed to be the same as before. She was slightly relieved.
She had learned from experienced seniors on how to tell if a girl was still a Virgin. Zheng Lun was obviously still a Virgin, judging from her facial features and the way she walked.
As long as the two of them had not done anything that they would regret, PEI Xinhua would not feel hopeless.
She just wanted to get her daughter married as soon as possible. If this continued, there would be problems sooner orter.
What if the two of them couldnt control themselves and something that shouldnt have happened happened? was she going to go out and tell people that her daughter was pregnant with her sons child?
What would others think of them!
It wasnt just about her embarrassment. Zheng Lun wouldnt be able to raise her head in front of everyone in the future. She would be pointed at and criticized for the rest of her life.
Zheng Lun had always been an obedient child. She had never done anything out of line. She was kind and sincere. How could she be embarrassed because of this?
She couldnt stay at home all the time in the future. She would have her own children and her own circle. She couldnt hide in her turtle shell and notmunicate with others.
Zheng Jing was even more so.
His colleagues and friends must have known that he was Zheng Luns brother. He had always taken Zheng Lun with him when he was working on cases, so everyone knew that she was his sister.
If the two of them got together and got married in the future, what would his colleagues think of him?
His sister had be his wife. No one would be able to ept such a change in status.
PEI Xinhua was very worried about her son and daughter, but she couldnt force Zheng Lun too much. After all, Zheng Lun was not her biological daughter and she couldnt beat or scold her at will.
But Zheng Jing was different. He was her own son and a tough man, so she could scold him however she wanted.
PEI Xinhua went to Zheng Jings room, closed the door, took off her slippers and smacked his butt.
Zheng Jing knew very well why his mother, who had always loved him as much as her own life, had suddenly attacked him. But he pretended that he knew nothing and wailed exaggeratedly,Mom, why did you hit me for no reason? It hurts so much, Im going to die! Dont hit me! Mom, look carefully, Im your biological son, not someone else!
Ill beat you to death, you bastard! You even dare to think about your sister? there are so many women in the world, Ill agree to you marrying whoever you like, but not your sister! Shes your sister, your biological sister!
As PEI Xinhua was ying, she suddenly started crying.
One of her feet was still wearing a slipper, and the other was bare as she stepped on the cold floor. She was in a daze and sad state as she cried.
Zheng Jing was startled to see her crying. He held her in his arms and patted her back tofort her.Mom, dont cry. Its our sons fault. If youre angry, hit me. I wont say a word.
PEI Xinhua was an independent and strong woman. She rarely cried. In Zheng Jings memory, she had only cried when his sister died. Other than that, she had always been smiling.
PEI Xinhua beat her son up and cried again. The panic in her heart finally dissipated a little.
If I hit you, itll hurt my heart as your mother. Do you think Id bear to hit you? she said with reddened eyes. If you werent so outrageous, I wouldnt have been so heavy-handed!
Its okay, it doesnt hurt at all. You dont have to feel bad. I suffered a lot more in the military school than this. Other people didnt go as easy on me as you.
Zheng Jing teased her in a rxed tone and then reached out to wipe her tears.
Dont cry, your eyes are swollen. When my dades back from work and sees you like this, he will beat me to death! He treats you like a treasure and I like grass!
Zheng qinan and PEI Xinhua had always had a good rtionship. They met each other on a blind date. They did not have any feelings for each other at the beginning of their marriage, but as they got to know each other better, their feelings for each other grew deeper.
Zheng qinan had always felt that his wife had done too much for the family, so he had always asked his son and daughter to be filial to her and not make her sad and angry.
Zheng Jings teasing made PEI Xinhua finally burst intoughter. Her son and daughter were so troublesome, but she finally had a reliable husband.
She wanted to put on the shoes, but Zheng Jing snatched them from her, squatted down and put them on for her.
PEI Xinhua finally remembered to ask about Zhao Anans condition after her son had soothed her sadness.
How is Anan now?
PEI Xinhua had been disappointed for a long time when Zhao Anan had not been able to marry Zheng Jing.
Chapter 810: I want to marry her (part two)
Chapter 810: I want to marry her (part two)
Zheng Jing knew that PEI Xinhua was disappointed. He smiled and said, "She''s fine. She can eat and sleep well. She doesn''t look depressed at all because of cancer. The best doctors in the world have treated her, and her condition is quite stable."
PEI Xinhua sighed."Sigh, she''s also a poor child. Fortunately, she has a good personality. If it were someone else, she would have copsed on her own. How could she still eat and sleep?"
After she had learned about Zhao Anan''s illness, her resentment towards Zhao Anan for not marrying her son and marrying Mu Qing had disappeared.
Now she finally knew why Zhao Anan refused to get married. She was afraid that her illness would make her husband''s life harder.
PEI Xinhua had lost her daughter before, and she knew the feeling of pain. Zhao Zhao was probably in more pain than anyone else.
Children were all flesh that fell from the mother''s body, and it would hurt her heart if she bumped into them. If the child was gone, the pain was no less than having her heart dug out.
She had thought that when Zheng Jing got married, she would treat the girl as her own daughter. Both of them had been raised by her parents and she should treat her well after marrying into the Zheng family.
She would definitely not be an evil mother-inw in the future.
But Zheng Jing had to find a girl to marry first.
"Son, mom asked someone to introduce you to a girl. Go and meet her when you''re free."
Zheng Jing shook his head decisively."No, mom. I am not free. I am very busy with work."
PEI Xinhua would not be fooled by him. She hit him on the shoulder and red at him,""Don''t find excuses! This time, I''ve introduced a very good girl to you. She''s studying forensic science, and she''s perfect for your job. You''ll havemon topics to talk about in the future. "
Forensic science?
Was there any forensic doctor in A city that he didn''t know?
However, there were seven female forensic doctors in A city. Other than one who was married, the other six were not married. He wondered which one PEI Xinhua had introduced to him.
No matter which one it was, he would never go on a blind date.
Otherwise, he would be harming the girl.
Zheng Jing took a deep breath and said in a serious tone,"Mom, I know all the female forensic doctors in A city, but I don''t like them. No matter who you introduce me to, I won''t go. This has nothing to do with work. I don''t even have that kind of feeling for those girls. "
PEI Xinhua was angry and anxious,"then what kind of girl do you like?" Whatever you like, mom will find you whatever you like!"
Zheng Jing was silent for a moment before he said softly, "Don''t you already know what kind of girl I like?"
"I said, no!" PEI Xinhua shouted. Lun is your sister!"
She knew it. She knew that Zheng Jing had been thinking about Zheng Lun.
PEI Xinhua was almost driven mad by her son!
She was already in her thirties, how could she not understand her mother''s difficulties! How could he not understand the ways of the world!
However, what Zheng Jing said next almost made PEI Xinhua faint.
"Mom, I want to marry her. We''re not rted by blood. You know that I can marry her. "
PEI Xinhua could not believe her ears!
"You, you ... What did you just say? I dare you to say that again!"
"I want to marry her and make her Che''s wife so that she can give you a grandson. Mom, this is a good thing. In this way, Lun will stay with you at home and will not marry into another family."
"Pa!"
PEI Xinhua gave her son a tight p!
Her entire body was trembling, and even her voice was trembling.""Don''t you dare touch Lun! She''s your sister, ever since she entered our family! I''ll kill you if you dare to talk nonsense again! What''s wrong with her marrying into someone else''s family? am I not her mother anymore if she gets married? I don''t need her to apany me in this way. I''ve never heard of any parents who can''t bear to let their daughter get married and let her marry their son! Your words are useless Against Me!"
Of course, she didn''t want Zheng Lun to leave her home to live in someone else''s house, but she had to.
Even if her biological daughter was still alive, she would still make her get married quickly. She couldn''t leave her at home for the rest of her life. That wouldn''t be loving her daughter, it would be harming her!
PEI Xinhua treated Zheng Lun the same way. She didn''t think that marrying her daughter off meant that she didn''t love her. On the contrary, she had asked about many unmarried young men in order to let her daughter marry well!
Zheng Jing didn''t even try to Dodge when he was pped by PEI Xinhua.
His face was burning with pain. It was obvious that PEI Xinhua was really angry, so she hit him very hard.
He felt a little guilty and was full of apologies to his mother.
PEI Xinhua really treated Zheng Lun as his own daughter, which was totally different from the way he treated Zheng Lun. He had always been aware that Zheng Lun was actually Qiqi, not his biological sister. If he had always treated her as his sister, how could he have fallen in love with her?
Zheng Jing stood there with determination in his eyes."Mom, since these words are useless, then I won''t exin anything. I''m definitely going to marry her, and I have a way to marry her, but this method will definitely make you and dad sad, so I don''t want to use it unless it''s thest resort. "
PEI Xinhua was so angry with her son that her face turned pale. She pointed at Zheng Jing and said in a hoarse voice,"Good, now that your wings have hardened, you actually dare to threaten me! I''m going to say this now, if you two want to be together, I''ll have to die!"
Zheng Jing paused and said helplessly,"Mom, can you not say such nasty things? what do you mean by ''dead'' or ''alive''? you can''t just say such things."
"Do you think I''m just casually saying it?"
PEI Xinhua snorted coldly and said through gritted teeth,""If you dare to mess around, I''ll die in front of you! This isn''t the end of the world, and you two are the only ones left in the world. You have to get married and have children! Stay away from Lun in the future. She is insensible and has been led astray by you! She used to be the most obedient child!"
After PEI Xinhua finished speaking, she walked away angrily with a cold face.
Zheng Jing looked at her back and smiled bitterly. It seemed that it would be very difficult to marry Zheng Lun. He needed to adjust his original n. Otherwise, PEI Xinhua would be very angry even if he married Zheng Lun in the future.
Zheng Lun had heard the argument between her mother and brother in her room. Although she didn''t hear it clearly, she could hear what they said in the end because they were so angry that their voices were raised.
She knew that her brother had confessed to her mother, and her mother had vehemently objected to it.
She hugged her stuffed rabbit and curled up in the corner. She was a little sad and a little self-reproaching.

Chapter 811: Marry someone else

Her mother had spent so much effort raising her, teaching her how to read, write, and draw. She had spoiled her like a princess and never asked her to do any housework. Even when she ate apples, her mother would peel them, cut them into pieces, put them on a te, and put toothpicks on them for her to eat.
However, how did she repay her mother?
She had caused so much chaos in the family, and her brother had already argued with her parents many times over their matter.
Zheng Lun knew that her mother had put all the me on her brother for their love.
It was not good for her mother to hit or scold her. Every time, she would go to settle the score with her brother. As long as they were a little closer at home, her mother would get angry at her brother.
But Zheng Lun felt that she was the one who should take the main responsibility for this. It had nothing to do with Zheng Jing. If she had not always wanted to be with him, her brother would not have ended up like this.
She seemed to be too selfish!
She knew that she couldnt have that kind of rtionship with her brother, but she still couldnt help but get close to him.
She thought about it for a long time and then went to Zheng Jings room at night.
When Zheng Lun entered his room, she saw that Zheng Jing was already fast asleep.
She didnt have the heart to call him, but she couldnt talk to him about important things at other times. She didnt want her mother to know.
She was hesitating when Zheng Jing woke up. He was surprised to see her standing in his room.
Zheng Jing sat up immediately and asked,Lun, why are you here? Why arent you sleeping?
He was very alert when he was sleeping. Even though Zheng Lun had only made a slight sound, he had noticed it.
Brother, I have something to tell you.
Zheng Luns voice was nasal and she sounded a little depressed.
Zheng Jing knew immediately that she must have been crying.
You heard my argument with mom today?
ording to Zheng Luns personality, she wouldnt havee to his room to look for him with her eyes swollen from crying.
He turned on the floor light, got up and walked to Zheng Lun. He took out a tissue from the table and wiped her tears under the dim light.
Silly girl, dont cry. Dont we always quarrel like this? its just a small matter. Ill coax her tomorrow and shell be fine. Dont worry and go back to sleep.
But Zheng Luns tears flowed even faster.
She sobbed and whispered,brother, its all my fault. Lets just be brother and sister in the future. Dont fight with mom over me anymore.
Zheng Jing pinched her fair cheeks and said with a smile,Yes, I wont fight with mom again. This is thest time, I promise! However, being brother and sister is only temporary. In the future, I will not only be your brother.
He hadnt made any arrangements to marry Zheng Lun yet, so he couldnt tell her about it, in case it failed and she would be happy again.
Zheng Lun was still in low spirits. She shook her head slightly.No, big brother, you are my big brother. You will always be and that will not change. I just wanted to tell you that you should go to the blind date mom arranged for you. You ... You should get married to someone else.
Zheng Jing said unhappily,dont talk nonsense. Why would I marry someone else?! If I want to get married, I can only marry you. I have said this before. Lun, you have to believe me!
Brother, Im serious this time.
Zheng Lun raised her head and looked into Zheng Jings eyes.I was too insensible in the past. I always wanted to be closer to you and wanted more. But now I know that we really cant be together. Brother, you should marry someone else!
Zheng Lun felt that her heart was about to be torn apart when she said that.
No matter how generous Zheng Lun was, she would never give up the man she had loved for so many years to another woman.
However, she had no choice. He was her brother and had taken care of her for so long. If she continued to pester him, she would really hurt him!
It was hard to exin their identities to the public. 99% of the people who didnt know the inside story thought that she and Zheng Jing were siblings.
Zheng Jings heart ached when he heard that Zheng Lun had asked him to marry someone else.
Marry someone else?
He simply couldnt do it!
If he really married someone else, Zheng Lun would have to marry another man and sleep in the same bed with another man. Another man would appreciate and touch her beauty, which was worse than killing him!
Zheng Jing didnt even care that they were at home. He held Zheng Lun tightly.
Lun, do you think that it is all your fault that we are in this situation?
Zheng Lun was very flustered in his arms. They would be dead if their mother saw them.
Brother, let go! Mommy will see!
No, its already sote, shes already asleep. Now, answer my question. Hurry up. Zheng Jing refused to let go. Instead, he pulled Zheng Lun into his arms and they were even closer.
Zheng Lun hesitated for a few seconds and then admitted that she had such an idea.
Yes, brother, its all my fault. I shouldnt have ... She said.
Before she could finish her words, Zheng Jing kissed her.
Zheng Lun was shocked and tried to push him away, but he didnt budge.
How could they kiss at home!
This was too dangerous!
Zheng Jing kissed her to relieve his longing. Then he held Zheng Lun and said,Lun, your thinking is wrong. You might not know this, but I liked you way before you liked me.
Zheng Lun struggled to get out of Zheng Jings arms, but he wouldnt let her go. She was no match for him.
She finally gave up struggling and leaned against Zheng Jings warm chest greedily. She asked softly,Really?
Of course its true. I can still tell if I love you as a sister or as an ordinary girl. Ive always wanted to marry you since I was young. After I grew up, this feeling became even stronger. I didnt even go to the military, but returned to A city directly because youre here.
This was the first time Zheng Lun had heard Zheng Jing mention this.
She had always thought that she was the one who liked Zheng Jing first and expressed her feelings for him. But she had not expected that Zheng Jings love for her was earlier and stronger than hers.
He gave up the high-ranking military position that everyone envied and chose to return to A city to be an ordinary Criminal Police officer all for her!
Zheng Lun was shocked by the news!
At that time, she had always thought that Zheng Jing only treated her as a sister and had no love for her.
So, he was actually so good at disguising himself?
Chapter 812: Opposition
Chapter 812: Opposition
The brother and sister were hugging each other tightly. Before Zheng Lun could say anything, the door of Zheng Jing''s room was opened.
Then, PEI Xinhua, who was wearing pajamas, walked in.
Seeing the two siblings hugging each other in the middle of the night in such an intimate position, PEI Xinhua felt all the blood in her body rush to the top of her head!
Her face turned extremely ugly in an instant!
"You guys ... You guys ... Are you trying to anger me to death!"
PEI Xinhua was so agitated by this scene that she couldn''t even speak properly. When they were young, it was fine for an older brother to hug his younger sister, but how could they be so intimate when they grew up?
Seeing PEI Xinhua, Zheng Lun was so scared that her face turned pale, as if she had done something unforgivable. She was so flustered that she didn''t know where to hide.
She immediately got out of Zheng Jing''s arms and said with embarrassment and uneasiness,"Mom, it''s not what you think. There''s nothing between brother and me, really nothing!"
This was nothing?
It would be toote when they had something!
PEI Xinhua''s eyes quickly turned red, and tears welled up in her eyes. She looked like she was in great pain.
"What sin have Imitted? why can''t you two let me rest easy? I''ve worked so hard to raise you, and this is how you''re going to be filial to me? Lun Lun, I have never treated you as an outsider since you came to the Zheng family. Now that you have grown up, do you have to stab me in the heart like this?"
Zheng Lun felt even more guilty and exined in a panic,"No, no, no, mom, I know you''ve always loved me. I was wrong in this matter, I won''t dare to do it again! Don''t hit brother in the future, this has nothing to do with brother, it''s all my fault. If you''re angry, you can hit me!"
She had never been touched by PEI Xinhua in her life, which made Zheng Lun very upset. She would rather be beaten by her mother than to bear with it when her mother was angry.
"No, mom, this has nothing to do with Lun. It is not her fault that she likes me!"
Zheng Jing had been caught being intimate with Zheng Lun by PEI Xinhua just now. He was a little flustered, but he calmed down soon.
"She always knew that I wasn''t her real brother, so it was normal for her to like me! This kind of rtionship can''t be controlled by anyone. She can''t leave me now, and I can''t leave her. "
Zheng Lun stopped him immediately."Brother, don''t talk nonsense! Quickly apologize to your mother!"
Saying such words was like adding oil to the fire, and it would make PEI Xinhua very angry.
But Zheng Jing didn''t listen to Zheng Lun. He held her hand regardless of her struggle and said to PEI Xinhua,
"Mom, I''ve said it. I want to marry her. This will not change!"
"Big brother!" Zheng Lun tugged at Zheng Jing, signaling him to stop.
Zheng Jing didn''t listen to her but said firmly,"Lun will always be your daughter. It is the best choice for her to marry me. The environment has not changed at all. She doesn''t need to adapt to new ces and new people. We''ll be filial to you together!"
"Nonsense!"
PEI Xinhua raised her voice unconsciously. The anger and heartache in her heart were almost driving her crazy!
She had always thought that her son and daughter were the most sensible and considerate. But now, what they were doing was simply treasonous!
"I won''t stop your sister from getting married just to keep mepany! This was modern society, not ancient times. She coulde back whenever she wanted to! If she marries someone else, she''ll still be filial to me!"
Because of her, her brother and her mother started quarreling again, and it was getting fiercer and fiercer. Her mother was so angry that her face had already turned white.
PEI Xinhua''s voice was so loud that it woke up Zheng qinan, who was sleeping in the bedroom.
He came to Zheng Jing''s room and understood everything without his wife''s exnation.
He used to be a Criminal Police officer, and his ability to solve cases and investigate was first-ss. Now, he was the director of the Public Security Bureau, and he had a strong analytical ability.
In fact, he had already noticed the matter between his son and daughter. However, they were not biological siblings after all. Even if they were a little too intimate, it was not against ethics.| Morality.
He had always turned a blind eye because he had always believed in his son''s self-control and judgment.
Zheng Jing always knew what he should and shouldn''t do. He would never do something that would make everyoneugh at him.
However, Zheng qinan had miscalcted.
Few people could remain rational when it came to love. It was already a miracle that Zheng Jing had not revealed his feelings for so long.
Zheng qinan patted PEI Xinhua''s shoulder and said lightly,""Alright, it''s already sote at night and you''re not going to stop quarreling. You still have work to do tomorrow. Go to bed first. I''ll talk to our son."
With her husband''s help, PEI Xinhua was much more at ease.
But the anger in her heart did not go away. She felt that it was very ring when she saw Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing holding hands.
No girl would want to marry Zheng Jing if they knew that they were so close. Which young man would be willing to marry Zheng Lun?
Sigh, ill-fated!
After PEI Xinsheng left in a Huff, Zheng qinan said to Zheng Lun,""Lun, you go back to sleep too. Don''t think too much. This will always be your home. We will always be your closest parents unless you don''t want me and your mother anymore."
Zheng Lun felt embarrassed and guilty. She stammered,"Dad, I ... I ... It''s all my fault. I made you and mom worried and angry ..."
Zheng qinan patted her back affectionately, and a smile appeared on his always serious face.""It''s fine. I know you''re a good kid. Be good and go to sleep first. Don''t torment yourself. "
Zheng Lun looked at Zheng qinan and then at Zheng Jing, who was standing there with his back straight. Then she left hesitantly.
Only the father and son were left in the room. The smile that Zheng qinan had shown to Zheng Lun soon disappeared, and he turned to look at his son with a sharp look.
"Jing, you''re not a child anymore. Why do you have to do such an irresponsible thing? Who wasn''t young? who wasn''t in love? But could love solve all problems? Don''t you consider the consequences of your actions?"
"Dad, I''ve already considered all the consequences. I think that even in the worst case scenario, it''s still better than me not being able to marry the woman I love."
Zheng Jing was very serious. He needed his father''s approval.
Although Zheng qinan didn''t care much about the family affairs, he had the greatest influence on PEI Xinhua. His words carried a lot of weight in the whole family.
Chapter 813
Chapter 813: Chapter 813-deep love
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng qinan got goosebumps from his sons shameless beloved woman.
When he decided to adopt Zheng Lun, he had never expected that his son would fall in love with that poor little girl one day.
He had always treated Zheng Lun as his sister. When did this change start?
Zheng qinan sat down on the chair and asked lightly,Youve liked your sister for a long time?
Yes, it has been a long time. Zheng Jing nodded.
If she really is your sister, would you still like her?
She is not my sister. If it were the real Lun, I would not have such feelings for her. Its different, dad. I can tell the difference.
Zheng qinan didnt think so.
The son and daughter had developed feelings for each other over time. One was used to taking care of the other, and they relied on and trusted each other. They had lived together for a long time, which gave them the best tacit understanding.
It could be said that no matter who Zheng Jing married in the future, they would not be aspatible as Zheng Lun.
After living together for a long time and loving each other deeply, they had developed a magical telepathy. Zheng Lun could often urately predict Zheng Jings unexpected situation.
When Zheng Jing had been studying in the United Kingdom, the life in the military school had been cruel and harsh. He had been seriously injured again and had fallen into aa, but the school had not told his parents.
Zheng Lun was the one who was panicking. She even said that she had a dream that her brother was injured and asked him to call the school to confirm it.
Zheng qinan was used to pampering Zheng Lun. He had made a call to the military school and found out that Zheng Jing was really injured, and seriously injured.
He and PEI Xinhua were both surprised at that time. As his parents, they didnt feel anything when Zheng Jing was injured, but Zheng Lun, who was not rted to him by blood, felt something. It showed how close they were.
If Zheng Lun was rted to Zheng Jing by blood, he would fall in love with her without a doubt.
Ah Jing, no matter whether Lun is your sister or not, she is still your sister, legally and morally. She is one of us. From the day she came to our family to rece your sister, she has been part of our family. It is a mistake for you to like her, and it is even more outrageous for you to marry her.
Dad! This is not a mistake, it is a good thing. Lun and I are getting married, and we are even closer than before!
Zheng Jing looked a little serious. He knew that Zheng qinan was against him and Zheng Lun. It would be very difficult to win his support.
Alright, you dont have to find so many reasons. No matter how many reasons you have, it cant change the fact that you two are siblings. Your mom and I will never agree to the matter between you two. If you really want the best for your sister, you should let her get married. Otherwise, shell beughed at for the rest of her life.
Dad, I ...
Youre the older brother, its only right for you to take care of your younger sister, but which older brother would take care of his younger sister on the bed?
Why did these words sound so outrageous!
Zheng Jing looked at his father, who had always been serious, with a dumbfounded look. He couldnt believe what he had just said.
Your words are crude, but theyre reasonable. Dont be too optimistic. Your mother and I are not the only ones who will object to the matter between the two of you. One of the most practical things is that if you want to marry Lun, she must be independent from our household register. Otherwise, you are siblings and even if I am the director of the Civil Affairs Bureau, I cant let you register your marriage.
Dad, I have thought about it. Let Lun be independent!
Your mother and I raised her like a baby, and you think she can be independent just because you want her to? Weve lost a daughter in the past. If we let her be independent now, isnt that sprinkling salt on our hearts? You dont have a child yet, but when you have one in the future, youll know that losing a child is an eternal pain! You cant even mention it!
Zheng qinans expression was a little ugly. He was a man, and he would not easily reveal his feelings. But just because a mans feelings were introverted did not mean that he had no feelings. Losing his daughter, he was also heartbroken.
If Zheng Jing let Zheng Lun go on her own, there would be three people in their household register. Was this a reminder that their daughter who used to be so smart and lovely was no longer alive?
Youre a man, so you have to be rational. When your sister gets married in the future, the feelings between you two will naturally fade. She will have her own husband and child, and you will have your own family. Pick someone with a good character. After getting along with her for a long time, itll be the same.
Zheng Jing sat down on his bed with his head down and said after a while,Dad, its different. I will never like another woman like how I like Lun.
Zheng qinan sighed softly. How could he not know?
However, life was full of helplessness and pain. Marriage was definitely not just a matter of two people. After the two of them got married, even if they were to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, the rumors and gossip would not decrease.
Since you and my mom dont agree, I can only use other methods. No matter what, Lun will be my woman and a member of the Zheng family. Even if she leaves, it will be temporary.
Zheng Jing raised his head slowly and said slowly.
Zheng qinan was shocked. He looked at his son in disbelief.
Ask Zheng Lun to leave?
Could it be ...
In a sh, Zheng qinan suddenly understood what his son was going to do!
Thats absolutely not allowed! Jing, dont mess around!
Seeing that Zheng qinan understood what he meant so quickly, Zheng Jing was a little shocked.
His father had always been wise and sharp. He usually kept a low profile and never abused his power for personal gain. He was strict in his work and life and was the best role model.
Zheng Jing felt that he still had a long way to go before he could reach the state that Zheng qinan was in.
If he couldnt even marry Zheng Lun, how could he be a man like his father?
Dad, this might be the best way. Its just that you and my mom might have to be sad for a while, but I promise that I wont let you be sad for too long.
Zheng qinan could tell at a nce that his son had made this decision long ago, not on the spur of the moment.
He had done so much for Zheng Lun, which showed his deep love for her.
He was afraid that any obstruction from him and his wife would be of no use.

Chapter 814: Uncle pit (1)
Trantor: 549690339
Time passed day by day. The Zheng family appeared calm on the surface, but in reality, the atmosphere at home had been a little strange for the past week.
Zheng Lun was supposed to go to Germany with Zheng Jing to visit Zhao Anan next week. She had not been doing well recently and she wanted to go with him.
However, PEI Xinhua had already lost trust in the two of them. She did not dare to let them go out alone, especially to such a distant Europe.
Zheng Lun called Zhao Anan and told her that she might not be able to go to Germany to see her.
Zhao Anan didnt know what to say to PEI Xinhua. After all, Zhao Zhao had forbidden her to go abroad, even out of A city, for fear that she would run away.
PEI Xinhua was the same as Zhao Zhao. They were both mothers, so it was understandable that she was worried about her daughter.
Zhao Anan knew that it was not easy for the siblings to get married. It was a restriction of the world and ethics.| The constraints of reason and morality.
Of course, for Zhao Anan, nothing was a big deal except for death. The marriage of the brother and sister was not a big deal. They were not biological siblings anyway.
She decided that when she got better, she would call PEI Xinhua and persuade her to help Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing.
Zheng Lun called Zhao Anan and then Shangguan ning, because Shangguan ning was going to Germany tomorrow and she wanted Shangguan ning to send a small message to Zhao Anan.
Shangguan ning was packing the clothes and necessities for the trip to Germany the next day when she received a call from Zheng Lun. Hearing that she couldnt go to Germany anymore, Shangguan ning immediately understood the reason.
Its okay, Lun. Anan knows that you care about her. If you want to give her something, just leave it to me. When an an recovers and returns to China, the three of us can get together.
Shangguan ning had dared to meddle in the affairs between Zhao Anan and Mu Qing, but she didnt dare to meddle in Zheng Luns Affairs.
This was because the nature of these two matters waspletely different.
Zhao Anan and Mu Qings marriage would bring them happiness instead of malicious rumors.
If Zheng Lun wanted to marry Zheng Jing, she had to break the tradition and challenge the most basic concept of family.
Therefore, Shangguan ning had never encouraged Zheng Lun to pursue Zheng Jing. She didnt even know how tofort Zheng Lun.
She could hear Zheng Luns sadness and pain from the phone. Zheng Lun used to speak gently and with a smile, but now she sounded sad.
The two of them chatted for a while and then hung up.
Shangguan ning turned around and found that Jing Rui, who had been beside her, was gone.
Ruirui, where are you? she called out. Are you still at home?
He shouted all around but did not get any response at all!
Oh no, he must have run out by himself again!
Shangguan ning called Jing Yichen in a hurry.Yichen, our son is missing! Quickly get someone to look for him, I only made a phone call and he was already gone. He shouldnt have gone far.
Jing Yichenughed on the other side of the phone,its nothing. Have you forgotten that I have put a GPS device on our sons clothes? Dont worry, my people are following him.
Shangguan ning heaved a sigh of relief. She had panicked when she saw that Jing Rui was missing. Her mind had gone nk and she had forgotten everything.
This child was really getting more and more troublesome as he grew up!
He was so obedient when he didnt know how to walk and loved to be carried by her all day. Now that he knew how to walk, he didnt let her carry him at all.
He loved to go out now and couldnt stay at home at all. He had just said that he wouldnt go anywhere today and would stay at home with her to tidy her clothes, but in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared.
Shangguan ning felt that she needed to buy a watch or phone for her son so that he could be contacted at any time.
Jing Rui didnt know what Shangguan ning was worried about. He came out of the house, went to the bus stop and got on the bus with an adult.
The driver only thought that he was the passengers child, so he didnt care about him and let him get on the bus.
There were not many passengers on the bus, so Jing Rui found a seat and sat down. He looked at the passing scenery and felt a little excited.
Its better toe out. Its so boring to tidy up at home. I can grow taller if Ie out for a walk!
In order to avoid being winked at by women, Jing Rui had even put on a baseball cap that covered half of his face. It was custom-made for him by his father. The size was just right and the color was beautiful. He liked it very much.
Jing Rui got off the bus after five stops.
He was just a little boy walking on the road, and it was inevitable that people would pay attention to him. But Jing Rui was used to it and did not care at all.
He entered arge shopping mall. ording to his father, this shopping mall belonged to his family, and he could buy anything he wanted with his Diamond VIP card.
Jing Rui felt a sense of achievement when he was shopping in his own mall.
Such arge shopping mall with such a high flow of people was managed by his father behind the scenes, which made him very proud.
These few days, the mall was having a promotion and had invited many singers and dancers to perform. It was very popr.
It was winter, and everyone was wearing thick down jackets to keep warm. The girls who were singing and dancing were all wearing skirts and dancing on the stage. It was pleasing to the eye and many mens eyes were attracted to her white thighs.
Among the men, there was one who was extremely good-looking. He was not only good-looking but also tall, so much so that Jing Rui could spot him at first nce.
Jing Rui was about to turn around and leave, but the beautiful man spotted him.Little Jing Rui!
His legs were short, so he definitely couldntpete with an adults long legs.
He stood where he was and watched the tall figure walk to his side in an oppressive manner. He couldnt help but frown.
Sigh, it seemed that he had to eat more delicious food in the future. It was his pain that he couldnt grow taller!
When would he grow to be as tall as his father and never have to look up at others again?!
He didnt want to get too close to the others, so he stepped back and asked,Do you need something?
What do you mean by do you have something to do? you should call me uncle, or second uncle! Didnt your dad teach you to respect your elders?
Thats right. The man who was still wearing a thin royal blue shirt and a silver suit despite the cold weather was the mboyant Jing Yiran.
My father said that you have been driven out of family Jing, so you are not my elder. You still have something to do? If theres nothing else, Ill be leaving.

Jing Yiran was deeply affected by Jing Ruis cold attitude!
What was going on? why was this kid acting like Jing Yichen? he was a copy of Jing Yichen!
He was just worried that Jing Rui was wandering around the mall alone, so he wanted to send him home, but the boy did not appreciate it at all!
Little one, are you bearing a grudge?
Jing Yiran couldnt think of any other reason. He thought that Shangguan ning must have said bad things about him in front of Jing Rui, which made Jing Rui reject him so much.
Jing Rui knew what Jing Yiran had done, but it was not Shangguan ning who had told him. It was Mu Qing and Zheng Jing who had been ndering Jing Yiran and listing out his crimes for him.
But Jing Rui did not treat Jing Yiran coldly because of this. He treated everyone the same way, and he did not mean to hurt Jing Yiran.
Right now, he just wanted to go around and have fun by himself. He didnt want to waste time on useless talk.
Jing Rui turned around and left immediately, seeing that Jing Yiran had nothing to do.
Really, why did she stop him for no reason? wasnt this just a waste of time?
But his legs were too short and he was pulled back by Jing Yiran after a few steps.Brat, where are you going? There are so many people here, what if you get lost! If he didnt die in my hands, wouldnt it be too much of a loss if he were to die in someone elses hands?
Let go of me, Ill walk on my own!
Jing Rui was very annoyed that Jing Yiran was grabbing his cor. His image as a genius was ruined.
Besides, he really didnt like it when people touched him, not even his clothes. Thest time in Germany, he was stripped naked and touched by a little beggar, which left him with a psychological shadow.
Im letting go, youre not allowed to run! Ill send you hometer. Its not safe to wander around outside alone! What are your parents thinking? is he still your biological son?
Jing Yiran didnt want to drag Jing Rui along with him either. For one thing, he looked like he was bullying a child and if Jing Yichen saw him, he might get angry. For another thing, he was very concerned about his image. He wouldnt look handsome with a little boy in his arms.
Jing Rui nodded.I wont run. I cant outrun you.
As for being sent home ... He had just escaped, how could he go back so quickly!
Well, second uncle Jing, since youre so unkind, dont me me for being unkind.
Hmm, youre tactful enough to know that you cant outrun me!
Jing Yiran nodded in satisfaction. It was a good thing that children were smart. They couldmunicate with each other easily. He himself had analyzed the pros and cons very clearly, so there was no need to say anything more. It really saved him a lot of effort!
He let go of Jing Rui and allowed him to walk on his own. He was very proud to see Jing Rui following him.
Ha-ha, he had always been beaten up by Jing Yichen when he was a child. Now he could finally hold his head high.
If he couldnt deal with Jing Yichen, he could deal with Jing Yichens son.
It turned out that Jing Yiran could neither deal with Jing Yichen nor Jing Rui.
The group of long-legged beauties walked past Jing Yiran and Jing Rui after their performance.
When thest beauty walked past, Jing Rui ran up to her and lifted her dress.
The beautiful woman screamed in panic. Then, she saw the little one, who had lifted her skirt, say to a man who was showing off,Second uncle, I saw it. Her underwear is red. Give me the candy!
Jing Yirans handsome face was full of surprise. He had heard Jing Rui call him second uncle as he had wished, but he would rather not have heard anything.
Cold sweat poured down his face.|No, no, no! Miss, please listen to my exnation! Its not like that! Liu said anxiously.
You shameless hooligan! Who are you calling miss? youre the Miss, your whole family are misses! He had a good appearance, but he was full of ck-hearted rotten guts! You actually incited a child to do this kind of thing, youre simply heartless!
The beautiful womans voice did not match her gentle appearance at all. When she scolded people, her voice was so loud that it could almost lift the roof of the shopping mall!
All eyes were on Jing Yiran, and many people were whispering and pointing at him.
Jing Yiran broke out in cold sweat. He had been tricked by his nephew.
This little thing was much more difficult to deal with than his father!
No, no, big sister, I ...
Bah! Open your dog eyes and take a closer look. Im only 18 this year, whos your big sister! Youre such a frivolous person!
She was dressed so provocatively, her breasts were so big that they looked fake, and she had on so much makeup that she looked like a Panda. Who could tell that she was eighteen years old?
Besides, whats wrong with calling her big sister?
Jing Yiran got a headache.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in the most sincere tone he had ever used in his life,Miss, what happened just now was definitely a misunderstanding. My nephew was too naughty. I didnt ask him to do that. It has nothing to do with me! Im not that kind of person. Besides, I really dont like you with your looks!
Thest sentence directly angered the hot-tempered beauty!
She shrieked,if you dont like me, why did you ask the child to lift my skirt?! Youre throwing all the dirty water on the child after he exposed you, shameless! Hes still so young. If it wasnt for your instigation, how could he have done such a thing? If you have the ability, then take off your pants and let everyone see if youre hard or not!
As soon as this was said, the mall immediately exploded!
This woman was too ferocious!
It was the first time that Jing Yiran had met such a shameless woman who didnt listen to any exnation. This woman was even more rude than he had ever been.
Little Jing Ruis eyes were sharp! He had chosen such a difficult one!
Wait, where is Jing Rui?
Good boy, after scamming him, he immediately ran away! If he caught him, he would definitely skin him alive!
It took Jing Yiran a lot of effort to get rid of the growling woman and then he went to the surveince room of the mall.
My child went missing in your mall. I want to look at your surveince cameras and find my child!
Do you want to make an announcement in the mall so that your children cane to you after hearing the announcement? the security guard in the monitoring room asked.
How could she do that? Jing Rui would have run away as soon as he heard the broadcast! It would be a wonder if he coulde!
No need, my child is deaf, he cant hear! Ill find him myself!
Jing Yiran pretended to be in pain, as if he had lost a deaf-mute child, sessfully deceiving the security guards. Then he started to look for Jing Ruis tiny figure in the hundreds of surveince cameras.
Chapter 816
Chapter 816: How about I give you a kiss?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was too young and there were too many surveince cameras. It took Jing Yiran a lot of effort to find him.
He immediately ran to the floor where Jing Rui was, ready to send Jing Rui home as soon as he caught him.
How dangerous would it be for a child who was not even two years old to wander around by himself!
But when he found Jing Rui, he found Shangguan ning standing next to him with a hostile look on her face.
Jing Yiran, did you ask my son to lift someones skirt?
Jing Yiran almost vomited blood.
This matter had nothing to do with him at all!
He was really wronged to death!
He red at Jing Rui with his peach-shaped eyes and said,You brat, you wont stop until youve killed me today, right? Quickly tell your mother that I didnt ask you to do it, you did it yourself!
Jing Rui looked as if he had been threatened and said to Shangguan ning pitifully,Mom, he didnt ask me to lift my skirt. I lifted it myself.
Shangguan nings heart ached.Dont worry, son. Mom is here. Dont be afraid. You dont have to take the me for him!
Jing Yiran was so angry that his eyes almost popped out.
Who would believe that it was Jing Ruis idea to lift a beautiful womans dress? anyone with a brain would think that he had threatened and incited him to do so!
However, these people were really brainless!
Jing Rui was not an ordinary child. He had a high IQ and a high EQ, which could not be judged bymon sense.
Other people might not know how smart Jing Rui was, but Shangguan ning was a mother.
We still dont know whos going to be the scapegoat. When I see this little one in the future, Ill definitely take a detour, or Ill be tricked by him! I must have owed him in my past life, thats why Im being yed by him in this life!
Jing Yiran sighed helplessly. He had no choice but to admit defeat today.
She had wanted to mess with Jing Rui, but she did not expect to get into such a mess. What an unlucky year! She had to check the Almanac before going out.
Shangguan ning didnt like what Jing Yiran said. She didnt care whether her son was a genius or not. Jing Yiran was an adult and Jing Rui was a child. She could just scold Jing Yiran first.
She frowned and said indifferently,stay away from my son in the future. Hes so young now. Hes no match for you at all. If youy your hands on such a young child, youll lose yourst bit of conscience!
Shangguan ning turned around and left with Jing Rui without even looking at Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran was so angry that the veins on his forehead were bulging. His handsome face turned red and then white. He realized that Shangguan ning and Jing Rui hade together to make him suffer.
Sigh, evil indeed has its retribution?
He used to bully Shangguan ning and now he was going to be scolded back by her?
Jing Yiran returned home dejected. He felt much better when he saw Luo Haos handsome face outside the vi. Luo Hao was his soulmate and the best person to confide in.
He walked forward and put his arm around Luo Haos shoulder. He hung himself on Luo Haos body and wailed,My dear, I was tricked by a child who is not even two years old today. You have to avenge me!
Luo Haos entire body stiffened, and he couldnt even walk!
My dear?
Wasnt this phrase a little too ... Explicit?
Moreover, it wasnt very appropriate for the second young master to lean on Him like this, right? Although ... He quite liked being leaned on by the second young master.
Luo Haos muscles were all tensed up. He was trying to divert his attention so that he wouldnt keep staring at Jing Yirans handsome face.
Second young master, although its a little embarrassing to be tricked by a child whos not even two years old, a child is still a child. Its normal to be a little naughty. Youre an adult. It doesnt suit your status to argue with a child. Youve always been broad-minded, so I think that you wont take a child to heart.
Luo Hao couldnt think of anyone other than Jing Rui who could make Jing Yirane back crying andin to him at such a young age, instead of getting back at him.
Although he wasnt in charge of Jing Yichens safety recently, he still drank and ate with his old friends, so he knew a lot about Jing Yichen.
Many of his brothers had been tricked by Jing Rui!
It was normal for Jing Yiran to be tricked.
But Luo Hao was concerned about Jing Yiran and didnt want to add salt to his wound, so heforted him.
Jing Yiran liked Luo Haos way of doing things. He liked it when he was a child. He liked it when people ttered him, even if it was just a little, as long as he was happy.
He patted Luo Haos shoulder in a good mood and pulled him into his arms. He smiled evilly and said,Aiya, you know me best! Little Luo, Im really liking you more and more. But ... Your skin is so fair, and its obvious when you blush. Do you want to talk to me about why youre blushing again?
Luo Haos face turned even redder after hearing what Jing Yiran said.
Damn it! He had never blushed before, but ever since he met Jing Yiran, everything had changed. Even the fact that he liked women had changed!
It was too embarrassing! He was a man, and he blushed so easily. Would the second young master look down on him?
As it turned out, Luo Hao was overthinking. Jing Yiran didnt look down on him when he saw him blushing. Instead, he thought that he was very cute and wanted to be bullied.| Wang!
Jing Yiran pinched Luo Haos face, then his ears and chin. His actions were so intimate that it was suffocating.
Luo Haos heart almost stopped beating. He felt like his face and ears were not his anymore!
Two ... Two ... Two ...
Luo Hao, do you think Im stupid?
No, no, no, no, second young master!
Oh, so you were too nervous just now, so you stuttered! However, Im not happy that youre chiding me! So, in order to make me happy again, you have to show me something! Jing Yiran still had his arms around Luo Haos shoulders. His handsome face was full of smiles and he didnt look unhappy at all.
Luo Hao was not sure if Jing Yiran was really angry. He asked hesitantly,Second young master, how do you want me to express my gratitude?
Jing Yiran said indifferently.Whatever you want. As long as you can make me happy.
Luo Hao wanted to say,you look very happy right now. But when he opened his mouth, the words that came out were,How about I give you a kiss?
Jing Yiran stumbled and almost twisted his foot.
He didnt hear wrong, did he?
When did Xiao Luo be so direct?
She actually wanted to kiss him!
He couldnt have really turned a straight man gay, right?
Oh my God, what a sin!
Chapter 817
Chapter 817: Am I going to have an additional little uncle?
Trantor: 549690339
Before Jing Yiran could react, Luo Hao kissed him on the face. Then they pushed each other away and ran away at the same time.
Oh my God, she was actually kissed by a man!
Why did it feel so awkward?
Jing Yiran felt terrible.
Seeing Jing Yiran stumbling in, Lu ran into the bathroom and washed her face. She didnt stop until she had washed it four times. She stood at the door and asked, Whats wrong with you? His face was poisoned.| Have you taken the medicine?
Other than this situation, there didnt seem to be any other possibility, right?
Lu was a little worried.
Jing Yiran wiped his face with a towel and said hesitantly,Comparing poison| The medicine makes people ufortable!
He was a straight man through and through. He didnt like men and only liked women!
He had finally tasted what it meant to bring disaster upon himself today!
If he had known that Luo Hao would fall in love with him so easily, he wouldnt have flirted with such a pure and handsome young man!
Really, it was quite worrying to have a face that could kill both men and women!
It took Jing Yiran a while to get rid of the embarrassment of being kissed by the man.
When he was back to normal, he rubbed Lus hair and said,Ill take you to see old man mu tomorrow. I think we should have a child too, or the house will be too cold.
He was thinking that his child should be as pretty as a doll and as smart as a little genius, just like Jing Rui.
He and Lu were both so good-looking, and their child would definitely be more beautiful than Jing Rui!
Lu had always known that Jing Yiran liked children very much. She felt a little guilty. It seemed that there were very few families that did not have children after marriage. A family wasplete only with children. Without children, it would be as cold as Jing Yiran had said.
She had gotten used to loneliness, but Jing Yiran was different. He was a normal person and had the emotional needs of a normal person. As his wife, she had the duty to have children.
As she got to know Jing Yiran more and more, Lus emotions started to be normal. She didnt have to deal with one killing task after another and her life became peaceful andfortable. This made her feel at ease but also a little ufortable. Luckily, Jing Yiran was always with her. He took her out to y, to various ces and to eat all kinds of food that she had never eaten before. They ate seafood, feasts and even went to the orchard to pick the freshest fruits.
She felt the beauty and happiness that she had never felt before.
The more she did this, the more she wanted to fulfill Jing Yirans wish.
Although it might not work, Lu agreed to go to mu Wensheng.
When Jing Yiran brought Lu to mu Wenshengs ce, he was shocked by what he saw.
Because not only was Jing Tianyuan living in the old mans courtyard, but there were also two tall, blonde, and blue-eyed beauties who were both pregnant.
Jing Yiran knew all the family members of family mu. He was sure that no man in family mu had a foreign wife.
The two beautiful girls were very close to mu Wensheng and Jing Tianyuan. It seemed that there was no estrangement between them and they were like a family. Could it be ...
Jing Yiran felt that he had been hit by a bucket of dog blood.
He swallowed his saliva with difficulty as he looked at the big bellies of the two beautiful women. He, who was always full of expressions, had no expression at all at this moment!
After a long while, Jing Yiran finally found his soul. He stammered,Grandpa, I, I, I ... Am I going to have another ... Uncle?
Jing Tianyuan had never liked Jing Yiran, his bastard grandson. He didnt like him either.
He didnt want to talk to Jing Yiran, but when he heard him say little uncle, Jing Tianyuan was confused.What little uncle?
Mu Wensheng was also confused. Jing Yiran didnt have an uncle. He only had one father, Jing zhongxiu.
Jing Yiran pointed at one of the girls big belly and said in a trembling voice,This child isnt yours?
Jing Tianyuan was so angry that he almost fell down.
What the hell is this!
How dare he think that the children in those two womens stomachs were his!
Mu Wensheng finally understood what Jing Yiran meant. Seeing Jing Tianyuans gloomy face, he burst intoughter.Hahaha, Aiya, little Ranran, you really have a good eye! Thats right, thats right, youre going to have an uncle soon, an uncle whos thirty years younger than you!
Jing Tianyuan jumped up from the armchair and kicked Jing Yiran hard. Then he picked up a bundle of nine Immortals grass and whipped Jing Yirans back.
Mu Wensheng, who had beenughing madly just now, turned green immediately!
The bundle of nine-immortality herb was the best herb that he had picked out with great effort. Mu Wenshengs heart was bleeding when he saw Jing Tianyuan using it to beat someone.
Jing, you can hit me if you want, but dont touch my nine Immortals grass! Quickly put it down, I still need to use itter!
Jing Tianyuan was so angry that he didnt care about the nine Immortals grass or the Eight Immortals grass anymore.
Jing Tianyuans anger was appeased when the whole bundle of nine-Immortals grass was interrupted. He yelled,Is your brain filled with water? Or are you blind? Which one of these two women looks like my woman?
Jing Yiran had been afraid of Jing Tianyuan since he was a child. But now he was so shocked by the two pregnant women that he blurted out without thinking.These two are quite simr! Grandpa, when did you be so fashionable? Does my grandmother know about this?
Jing Tianyuans blood rushed to the top of his head after hearing what he said. His hair was almost standing up! The anger that had just been appeased suddenly rose up again!
He picked up the teacup and threw it at Jing Yiran, as if he wanted to kill him.
Jing Yiran wanted to Dodge, but someone was faster than him and caught the teacup in an instant.
He took a closer look and found that Lu was quick to react and had protected his face.
Lu was actually very confused about the situation. She didnt understand how Jing Yiran managed to make Jing Tianyuan so angry with just one sentence.
Jing Tianyuan rarely lost his temper. He was much more temperamental than mu Wensheng, but at this moment, he felt as if mu Wensheng had lost his temper.
She didnt understand how Jing Yiran could tell that the babies were Jing Tianyuan s.
Chapter 818: Its all Mu Qing
Chapter 818: It''s all Mu Qing
Although Jing Tianyuan was in good health and looked much younger than his actual age, he was over 80 years old after all. The possibility of him having a child was almost zero.
But although Lu felt that Jing Yiran''s words were inappropriate, she wouldn''t let him get hurt by the cup. So she took the cup.
Jing Tianyuan got even angrier when he missed Jing Yiran. He pushed Lu aside and said,""I''m going to teach my grandson a lesson, you little girl, go to the side! Don''t interfere!"
Jing Yiran was not a fool. He was always flexible in front of Jing Tianyuan. Seeing that the old man was going to hit him again, he apologized immediately."Grandpa, I was wrong, I was wrong! Don''t hit me anymore, be careful where your hand hurts! If I make you so angry, my grandma will beat me to death!"
Mo Lan definitely wouldn''t kill him, but she had to tell him how serious it was!
"You still know how to take care of your grandmother?!"
Jing Tianyuan threw away the teacup in his hand. Mu Wensheng held the rest of the teacups tightly and refused to let him move. He was so angry that his voice was full of anger.
If his grandson was half as smart as Jing Yichen, he would be able to save himself from all the trouble.
What a brainless man! Those two women were obviously not his men, but Jing Yiran was still talking nonsense. If this got out, he would lose all his face!
"I only have one woman in my life, your grandmother. When have I ever had anyone else? If you keep talking nonsense, get out of A city, or I''ll get angry just by looking at you!"
Jing Yiran said hurriedly,"yes, yes, yes. You are the most loyal to my grandma. You were like this when you were young, and even more so when you are old." My grandson was confused just now, please don''t take it to heart! I knew it. You won''t change your preference to European and American styles. You''ve always liked Oriental styles. "
Why did these words sound so wrong?
Jing Tianyuan''s face turned dark. This brat was getting more and more ridiculous.
He snorted coldly and angrily returned to his armchair to sit down. Only then did he realize that even in the middle of winter, he was actually so angry that he was sweating all over. His ears were also ringing. What a waste of his life!
Jing Yiran''s body and face were covered in sweat.
He wiped the sweat off his forehead and heaved a long sigh of relief.
He had realized that the two pregnant women with blonde hair and blue eyes had nothing to do with Jing Tianyuan.
Aiyo, it''s good that you''re not the old master''s child!
Otherwise, Jing zhongxiu would have a younger brother who was fifty years younger than him, while he and Jing Yichen would have an uncle who was thirty years younger than them. That would be too beautiful to look at!
If it was not Jing zhongxiu ''s, then ...
Jing Yiran turned his eyes to mu Wensheng, who was frowning because of the herbs.
"Grandpa mu, it seems that you are still young! Congrattions! The MU family is going to have another child. Mu Qing will have two more uncles or aunties this time!"
Mu Wensheng had just taken a sip of tea, but he was so shocked that he vomited it all out!
Seeing mu Wensheng''s face, Jing Tianyuan felt much better.
Who asked you tough at me? now that karma hase so quickly, I''ll let you have a taste of it!
"You brat, don''t talk nonsense! It''s true that the MU family is going to have more children, but these two children are not anyone else ''s, they are Mu Qing'' s!"
Mu wen was so angry that his newly grown beard was shaking!
How dare Jing Yiran say that!
He had thought that Jing Tianyuan had wasted a bundle of nine-immortality herb, but now he felt that it was too little that he didn''t kill Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran couldn''t help but get startled. He said,"What? They were all Mu Qing ''s? How is this possible?"
Although Jing Yiran and Mu Qing had always been at loggerheads, he still trusted Mu Qing''s character.
There was no doubt about Mu Qing''s feelings for Zhao Anan. He had waited for Zhao Anan for so many years. How could he cheat on her after they got married?
The two blondes apparently understood Chinese. They threw a flirtatious look at Jing Yiran andughed at him. Then they went out for a walk, hand in hand.
Mu Wensheng saw them walking out and quickly called for the servant who was there to take care of the two pregnant women."Quick, follow the two of them. Don''t let them fall or get knocked down. My precious great-grandson can''t be harmed!"
The servant smiled and followed them. She took care of the two pregnant women carefully as if she was taking care of national treasures.
Jing Yiran mumbled,"Mu Qing is going to be a father?" Impossible, how could he be so fast? I didn''t hear any news about it before! Wasn''t he taking Zhao Anan for treatment abroad? Why were there two pregnant women at home? And it''s even European and American style? In order to preserve his seed, he''s going all out!"
Mu Wensheng was very proud. He touched his beard and snorted,""With this old man here, what is impossible! He and Zhao Anan were treating them abroad and they had a baby. When they came back, they would have a pair of chubby boys to call them mom and dad. "
Jing Yiran immediately woke up from the confusion. He caught the key word."Call them father and mother? What did this have to do with Zhao Anan? The child of those two women must be European and American, right? Would Zhao Anan be willing to do that?"
"Who said that the children of those two girls must be European and American? The child born from the two of them would definitely have a 100% Asian look! Zhao Anan is the mother of the two kids. "
What?
Biological mother?
Could it be ...
An idea came to Jing Yiran''s mind and he said,"You guys found a surrogate!"
So that was how it was!
This was not a bad idea!
This old man mu Wensheng had an avant-garde idea. He was a good grandfather to help his grandson find a surrogate mother!
He wondered if he and Lu could use the same method.
Jing Yiran''s eyes lit up and heplimented mu Wensheng at once."Oh, Grandpa mu, you really live up to your title as a Divine Doctor. You''ve solved such a difficult problem. I don''t think any medical problem can stump you!"
Mu Wensheng was an experienced man and he would not fall into Jing Yiran''s trap. He said angrily,"You don''t need to tter me, it''s useless! Just now, you''vepletely offended this old man. Get out of my ce. I find you an eyesore, and I''m in a bad mood!"
Jing Yiran touched his face and said with a smile,"How could this be? Take a closer look at me, I''m the most handsome man in A city, even most women can''tpare to me. You should be happy to see me so good-looking!"
Chapter 819: Difficult problem
Chapter 819: Difficult problem
Jing Yiran had never been so good at talking, but now he was speaking so well that it sounded like he was singing. He must have something to ask of him.
Mu Wensheng ignored him and turned to Jing Tianyuan, ready to settle the score with him for the nine Immortals herb.
But Jing Yiran would not give up so easily. He pulled Lu to mu Wensheng and said directly,"Grandpa mu, can you help me and Lu to have a child through surrogacy, like what Mu Qing did?"
Mu Wensheng and Jing Tianyuan were both surprised by his words. He wanted a child!
Jing Tianyuan sat there without saying anything.
Although he had driven Jing Yiran out of family Jing, he had been getting closer to Jing Yichen recently. He even took Lu to visit Mo Lan from time to time. He was totally different from the man who always caused trouble at home.
No matter what, Jing Yiran was still part of family Jing, and that was something that could not be changed. Although Jing Tianyuan didn''t see him as the heir, he wouldn''t stop him from having his own child.
He didn''t say anything, which meant that he had agreed. Mu Wensheng knew what he meant, but it was more difficult to make Lu have a baby than Zhao Anan.
"Do you think that surrogacy is something you can find so easily?" mu Wensheng said unhappily. Zhao Anan was a child.| If there was a problem with the uterus, the fetus could not be imnted. However, her ovum was active and could be cultivated into a fetus, and then a healthy fetus could be borrowed.| Pce, just gestating the embryo into a baby would do! Your little deer| There was no problem with the pce at all. There was no need to borrow it! The problem is her egg cells!"
Jing Yiran knew a thing or two about this, but he still didn''t want to give up."What happened to Lu''s egg cells?"
"All the cells in her body have been gically modified. The new cells all carry the virus, and so do the egg cells. There is no way to cultivate her into an embryo!"
Jing Yiran was not convinced."How do you know if there is a way to make an embryo if you have not tried? maybe it will work."
"You''ve been married for so long, but you''re still not pregnant. Doesn''t this already exin the problem? If you could, why would youe to me?"
Jing Yiran was still insistent,"if natural conception doesn''t work, maybe artificial insemination works." Aren''t you a Divine Doctor? That''s why I''m here to find you!"
"Even I, a miracle doctor, have my limits. This isn''t magic! You don''t have to tter me, even if you call me a God, I can''t do anything!"
Mu wen was very angry. He was not trying to shirk responsibility. He had done aprehensive examination on Lu and knew her condition very well.
Begging and ttering didn''t work, so Jing Yiran started to say shamelessly, "You''re already so concerned about your own grandson. Now that he has a child, you''re so happy that you don''t care about the life and death of others? I don''t care, if you don''t let us see it, we''ll stay here and not leave! I''m a cruel person, I don''t want others to have children even if I don''t have one. If I don''t like the two pregnant women, I might beat them up. Don''t regret it then!"
Mu Wensheng was almost angered to death by Jing Yiran. How dare he threaten him!
He was so angry that he took off his shoes and threw them at Jing Yiran, but Lu caught them in the air.
Jing Yiran took the shoes from Lu with a smile, walked to mu Wensheng and put them on for him. "Don''t throw it. Didn''t you see that my grandfather didn''t hit me when he threw the teacup? My wife is the world''s number one, she can even catch a bullet! I''m helping you put on your shoes, so you have to help me! Even my grandfather doesn''t get this kind of treatment. "
Jing Yiran put on shoes for mu Wensheng, which made him less angry.
Mu Wensheng could understand Jing Yiran''s desire for children. He had been like this before.
It was not until he had spent all his effort and fought for more than five months to sessfully cultivate the embryo that he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
He thought for a while and frowned, but he couldn''t think of any way to increase the activity of the deer egg cells and cultivate them into embryos.
But he was indeed moved by Jing Yiran''s persistence. Maybe he could give it a try.
"Alright, you two go to the hospital and get your sperm and ovum, then send them to me. I''ll see if there''s any hope. I''ll say this first, I don''t have any confidence at all. If it doesn''t work, you''re not allowed toe here and make trouble!"
Although mu Wensheng looked impatient and sounded angry, Jing Yiran was overjoyed. As long as mu Wensheng was willing to give it a try, it would be great!
He smiled and said,"no, no, I won ''T. I definitely won''te and cause trouble. I can''t thank you enough!" Just go ahead and try, it''s none of your business whether it works or not!"
Mu Wensheng was an expert in all kinds of diseases. He had been studying infertility for decades and he was the one who was most familiar with Lu''s condition. He had even found a way to control the virus temporarily, which had kept Lu alive until now.
Jing Yiran couldn''t find a better doctor than him.
Lu knew what mu Wensheng was capable of. She knew better than anyone else what level mu Wensheng''s medical skills had reached. Even her parents and the research institution who specialized in the virus could not do anything about her body, but mu Wensheng could make the best treatment without knowing anything about the virus.
He had been learning medical knowledge from his family''s elders since he was a few years old. He had been learning medical skills for more than seventy years. He was now able topletely understand by analogy and find a new way to solve various diseases.
Lu''s eyes lit up. Maybe mu Wensheng could really find a way to make her a mother!
No matter what, there was hope now. Mu Wensheng was frowning, while Lu and Jing Yiran left happily.
It took a long time to extract the egg cells. A woman could onlyy one egg in a month. If she wanted more, she would have to be injected with an egg-stimting needle.
Therefore, it was already a monthter when he went to mu Wensheng''s ce again.
After that, Jing Yiran went to mu Wensheng''s ce almost every day to check if the embryo was sessfully cultivated.
However, the experiment failed again and again. Mu Wensheng was getting anxious, because it was a hundred times more difficult than cultivating the embryos for Mu Qing and Zhao Anan.
Mu Wensheng wanted to remove the virus from the egg cell, but the virus had already integrated with the entire egg cell. On the one hand, it suppressed the activity of the egg cell, and on the other hand, it maintained the vitality of the egg cell. If it was removed, the egg cell would slowly die.
He already knew that it would be very difficult and that the possibility was very low. What he was doing now was basically useless because he knew what the result would be.
Chapter 820
Chapter 820: Taking in disciples
Trantor: 549690339
But seeing Jing Yirans hopeful eyes, mu Wensheng had to continue.
He tried many different ways. He kept stripping the virus. Once the ovum could not bear it, he would stop immediately and cultivate it for a while. When the virus reproduced to a certain extent, he would start stripping again.
The cycle repeated itself, boring and cumbersome.
After Jing Yiran came, he took over Jing Tianyuans assistant position and soon became a more qualified and agile assistant than Jing Tianyuan.
Although he was not as smart as Jing Yichen, he was actually very smart and learned things very fast. Now that he was very diligent, his medical knowledge had improved by leaps and bounds.
Even mu Wensheng was surprised at Jing Yirans understanding of medicine.
Jing Yiran was quite proud of himself. He felt that he could almost be a doctor!
Jing Tianyuan was the only one who said,Youre so proud after learning this little thing, youre really thick-skinned! Your brother learned these things when he was three years old! Youre already thirty years old and you only learned it now, and you still have the cheek to show off!
Jing Yiran was used to Jing Yichens talent and Jing Tianyuans words were the lightest of them all. He had said much worse things before.
He didnt take it to heart at all and was still very happy. He said heartlessly,It wasnt easy for me to learn such high-end things, how can I not show off? Oh, thats right, I can show off my brother in the future. I have to make full use of such a genius brother!
He had learned practical medical knowledge and was very happy. His entire person was in high spirits.
When Jing Yichen was studying and working hard, he had been ying around and felt that he had gained a lot from it.
Now that he was sensible, he wanted to learn from the beginning, but no one was willing to teach him step by step.
Mu Wensheng seemed to be used to teaching Mu Qing and the children of family mu. Although he had a bad temper and liked to p people on the back of their heads, he had been teaching Jing Yiran with all his heart and without reservation.
Jing Yiran was very eager to learn and he always felt enlightened. Although it was tiring and boring every day, it was the most fulfilling and satisfying moment in his life.
In terms of intelligence, Jing Yiran was actually better than Mu Qing. He was also a good learner. Although he was not as good at medicine as Mu Qing was, he was willing to work hard.
Besides, he was used to fighting with Jing Yichen. When mu Wensheng hit him, he didnt take it seriously at all. He just followed mu Wensheng with a smile.
After Mu Qing was hit by mu Wensheng, he screamed and ran away, fearing that he would be hit again. He would never be like Jing Yiran, who had to endure it.
Besides, Jing Yiran had a strong mind. He was not afraid of being scolded by mu Wensheng because of his ignorance. He asked mu Wensheng whatever he didnt understand, even more eager to learn than Mu Qing.
One was willing to learn and the other was willing to teach. It would be strange if Jing Yiran didnt make rapid progress.
Later on, mu Wensheng would ask Jing Tianyuan non-stop if Jing Yiran didnt show up at his ce,Wheres that kid, Yiran? Why didnt hee today? Where did he go? If he doesnte, I wont be scolded or beaten. I kind of miss him!
He had finally met a disciple who was on the same level as Mu Qing, who was smart and eager to learn, and who was even more hardworking than Mu Qing. He could not let him go!
After another month, mu Wensheng said to Jing Tianyuan,Ill take your grandson as my disciple! This kid is quite talented, its a waste not to study medicine. In the future, if you are sick, your grandson will be able to treat you!
You are the one who is sick! Jing Tianyuan red at her.
Jing Tianyuan had already seen through mu Wenshengs intention to take Jing Yiran as his disciple.
Mu Wensheng rarelyplimented people. Mu Qing had already achieved a high level in medical skills, but he would still be scolded by mu Wensheng.
But recently, he had beenplimenting Jing Yiran from time to time, and even mumbled sourly that Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran were both grandsons of family Jing, why didnt they give one to family mu?
At mu Wenshengs age, he didnt care if his medical skills were learned by others. He only cared about whether his top medical skills would be lost.
Besides Mu Qing, he had always wanted to find another sessor, even if he was not a member of the MU family.
Jing Yiran was a member of family Jing and it would be a good choice to teach him the medical skills.
Mu Wensheng was willing to train a medical talent for family Jing for free. No matter how Jing Tianyuan looked at it, family Jing was at an advantage. There was no reason for Jing Tianyuan to disagree.
That bastard has been driven out of family Jing by his father. He is not my grandson. It has nothing to do with me if you want to take him as your disciple.
Jing Tianyuan didnt say it out loud, but he had acquiesced to it.
Alright, then well take him in!
Mu Wensheng pped his thigh and made the decision without asking for Jing Yirans opinion.
As long as Jing Tianyuan didnt object, Jing Yiran wouldnt be able to do anything about it. He had many ways to force Jing Yiran to do what he wanted.
Of course, Jing Yiran didnt need mu Wenshengs help at all. He was more than happy to be mu Wenshengs disciple.
If people knew that he was thest disciple of mu Wensheng, the miracle doctor, he would be more respected than the second master of family Jing.
Aiya, just thinking about that scene would make one wake upughing from their dreams!
Jing Yiran was so proud that he felt as if he was floating in the clouds. The only thing that made him suffer was that he had to call Mu Qing senior brother.
Sigh, forget it, so be it. This wet chest was also a very famous little Divine Doctor. If word got out, he would have more face!
Look, his status was not low now!
Master Jing, who had a super business empire in A city, was his brother. The godly Doctor Who could bring the dead back to life was his master. The director of family MUs Hospital was his senior brother. Even his wife was the worlds number one killer. Tsk, tsk, tsk. With so many titles, any one of them could kill arge number of people in seconds!
Jing Yiran was surrounded by happiness, making him look very energetic.
Wasnt this the life he had always wanted?
It actually came true so easily!
Jing Yiran was drinking happily. He leaned his head on Luo Haos shoulder and said,Little Luo, do you have any wishes? Come on, tell me, and Ill help you realize it! Im a capable man now!
Luo Hao looked at Jing Yirans blushing face and said in his heart,I want to marry you, and you can realize this?
Chapter 821: Youre amazing
Chapter 821: You''re amazing
Of course, Luo Hao couldn''t say this out loud. He wasn''t the kind of man who would break up other people''s rtionships.
Jing Yiran had never cared about anyone but Lu. He was so attentive and considerate that he had changed from a yboy to a good husband. He had changed so much that everyone who knew him was surprised.
Besides, they were both men. If they got married ... It would be a little awkward. If he married a man, his parents would break his leg!
Luo Hao sighed in his heart. Sigh, why did he have to fall in love with a married woman? And it was a man! What a bitter life!
Seeing his "confidant" frowning, Jing Yiran thought that he was in trouble. He put his arms around his shoulders and said, "What''s wrong? If you have any difficulties, just tell me! I''m now the disciple of the godly doctor, and I walk with the air of an immortal!"
He kept addressing himself as ''brother'' instead of ''young master'', which made it seem like he was very close to Luo Hao.
But Luo Hao didn''t appreciate it. He was still in a bad mood. He pushed away Jing Yiran''s arm and walked away without saying a word.
Startled, Jing Yiran mumbled to himself after a while, "Don''t tell me that Xiao Luo also has a few days every month? Why do you look like you have a bad temper?"
He quickly forgot about Luo Hao''s temper and continued to drink happily, humming a tune, as free as a God.
When Lu came back, she found Jing Yiran leaning against the wall of the vi, half asleep.
She put down the bags of food and new clothes, picked Jing Yiran up from the ground and was about to walk into the vi.
Even if Jing Yiran was drunk and his mind was not clear, he would never allow Lu to be carried by him like a princess!
He struggled to get down and pinched Lu''s delicate chin with his long fingers. He stuttered,""Baby, you can''t hug me like this next time. I''m your husband, I should be the one hugging you!"
As he spoke, he threw away the empty bottle, picked up Lu and walked in unsteadily.
Lu didn''t struggle and let him hold her. She asked in a low voice,""Why are you so happy today?"
Jing Yiran seemed to be in a very good mood. He didn''t drink too much usually and was always sober. But today, he was drunk.
"Haha, old man mu has epted me as hisst disciple! How''s your husband?"
Jing Yiran got so excited at the mention of this that he didn''t even have time to talk.
"Really?" Lu was surprised.
"Of course it''s true!"
"You''re amazing!"Luplimented him sincerely.
Mu Wensheng hadn''t taken in any disciples for so many years. Family mu almost never took in disciples with different surnames. On one hand, it was easy for others to take their jobs. On the other hand, family mu had many children, so it was not necessary to find other disciples.
He had excellent medical skills and had high standards. He had chosen Jing Yiran to be his apprentice because of his talent and hard work. Jing Yiran had earned his apprentice''s recognition with his own ability.
It was indeed something to be proud of!
Lu was very happy. She put her arms around Jing Yiran''s neck and kissed him. This was what Jing Yiran had taught her. When she was happy or wanted to make him happy, she should kiss him. This was the best way to express her feelings.
Jing Yiran was very pleased to be kissed by Lu. He also felt that he was as good as Jing Yichen, a genius.
The alcohol had numbed his brain to a certain extent, but it also made him more excited. He pressed Lu on the bed and took off her clothes. Seeing her fair and delicate body, he couldn''t hold back his desire and went in directly.
Perhaps it was because of her special physique, but Lu''s skin was very smooth and stic, as beautiful and attractive as an 18-year-old girl ''s.
Jing Yiran''s kisses made her shiver and moan.
Jing Yiran had thought more than once that Lu was aging dozens of times slower than him. He would be an old man in thirty years, but she would still look like an eighteen-year-old girl. What should he do?
Even if he was as beautiful as a demon, he would still be under a lot of pressure if he were to marry a wife who was almost immortal!
When they went out together, people would think that Lu was his daughter!
But at this moment, Jing Yiran was not thinking about anything else. He was trying his best to please his woman, and she had learned how to please him under his guidance.
Lu was a very good student. She had learned everything from the beginning, which surprised Jing Yiran.
Their life as a couple was very harmonious. And because of Lu''s good health, Jing Yiran would be fine no matter what he did.
Jing Yiran felt that Lu only looked like a normal woman when she was in bed-gentle, charming, beautiful and sexy.
Lu was immersed in the sea of happiness. She held Jing Yiran tightly and forgot that the food she had bought from the supermarket was still outside. She only had Jing Yiran in her eyes.
The next day, when Jing Yiran went to mu Wensheng''s ce, he still reeked of alcohol, which made mu Wensheng give him a scolding.
"I just decided to take you as my disciple yesterday, you won''t make me regret it today, right? How dare you drink so much! Look at the time now, the sun is about to set, and you''re only here now! Are you itching for a beating? He was just like that Rascal Mu Qing, who would take the roof off the roof if he was not given a beating. Where are my bamboo sticks? I''ll give you a good beating first!"
"Master, you''re exaggerating. It''s only nineo'' clock. The sun has juste out. It''s not like we''re in the north or south Pole. How can it set so quickly?"
Jing Yiran couldn''t help but argue back."Yesterday, I was too happy that you epted me as your disciple, so I drank a few more mouthfuls. I won''t do it again! Please teach me quickly, don''t look for the bamboo stick. I''ve thrown it away long ago. Do you think I should keep it and let it y its part?"
Mu Wensheng had used the bamboo stick to hit Mu Qing, but now he used it to hit Jing Yiran. After being hit twice, Jing Yiran threw the stick away. It was too painful to be hit by it. He would rather mu Wensheng hit him with his palm!
Hearing that the bamboo stick had been thrown away, mu Wensheng pped Jing Yiran hard.
But Jing Yiran''s words,"I''m so happy to be your apprentice," made mu Wensheng feel very good. He snorted and started the new round of embryo experiment. He didn''t care about Jing Yiran''s drinking and beingte.
Chapter 822
Chapter 822: Sessfully getting pregnant
Trantor: 549690339
When a person kept repeating the same thing and did it to the extreme, he would discover the hidden secrets.
Mu Wensheng was a top doctor. He had been repeating the embryo experiment for more than a month and now he knew what to do even with his eyes closed.
By chance, he had found a way tobine the sperm and ovum!
He stopped removing the virus and let the ovum carry the virus to slowly devour the sperm.
A weekter, mu Wensheng sessfully bred aplete embryo.
Although it still carried the virus, its activity was very close to that of a normal embryo. As long as this embryo could be sessfully imnted in the young deers womb, it was very likely that it would develop into a healthy fetus.
Jing Yiran was so excited that he almost burst into tears. He hugged mu Wensheng and kissed him, which disgusted mu Wensheng.
Soon, Lu got pregnant.
She felt that it was very magical. There was a little life in her stomach, and she looked forward to it growing up every day. She looked forward to seeing him.
Lu gradually became gentle, even her heart. Her pregnancy had changed her endocrine system and her indifferent personality had changed a lot. Her body temperature had also started to rise and was now at the level of a normal person.
Jing Yiran took Lu to mu Wensheng for a check, fearing that something was wrong.
Mu Wensheng looked at his posture and said angrily,Youve been learning medical skills from me for so long. Dont you know that pregnant women dont need to be so careful? Why dont you just go to heaven! Her body is a hundred times better than yours. Why are you so careful? let here down and walk on her own!
Jing Yiran put Lu down in surprise and mumbled,Ah, this is not my first time being a father, and it took you so much effort to seed, so I was too cautious. Its good to be more cautious!
Lu also thought that Jing Yiran was being too careful, but she knew nothing about pregnancy. So she just did whatever Jing Yiran said. It was not a big deal.
Jing Tianyuan had been the most carefree one ever since he started to cultivate the embryo. Jing Yiran had taken over all the chores for him. What he enjoyed the most was drinking tea while bickering with mu Wensheng, and making fun of Jing Yiran.
Now that Lu was pregnant, he was quite happy. After all, she was the child of family Jing, and he just wanted her to be less of a jerk to Jing Yiran.
If the child was born, Jing Tianyuan nned to raise the child himself, regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl. He wanted to make sure that the child would be Jing Ruis support in the future, and not be Jing Ruis obstacle, so that he would not be like Jing Yichen, who had to spend a lot of effort to deal with Jing Yiran.
He noticed that Jing Yiran was no longer as headstrong as he had been when he was a child. He was not always against Jing Yichen and always got into trouble. Instead, he had be more motivated. Not only was he able to run his own family well, but he also treated Jing Yichen as his own brother. He kept talking about his brother all the time. Those who didnt know him would think that he had been very close to Jing Yichen since they were little.
Jing Tianyuan was very happy that family Jing was finally at peace.
He knew that Jing Yiran and Lu had no experience in pregnancy, so he said calmly,If you dont have any experience, why dont you ask your grandmother? You were raised by her, and she has a lot of experience in this area!
Jing Yirans eyes lit up and heughed.Haha, Grandpa is right! I can go to my grandma. Aiya, how could I forget such a precious resource? when my grandma finds out that I have a child, shell definitely be very happy!
Jing Yiran and Mo Lan had different feelings for each other. Mo Lan had always loved him and he had always treated Mo Lan as his closest person. Mo Lan was irreceable in his heart.
Mu Wensheng nodded and said viciously,Yes, that olddy is blind. She likes you, a defective grandson, but she doesnt like Jing Yichen, who is good in all aspects. If she knows that you have a child, she will love you more than she loves Jing Rui.
Jing Yiran was displeased. What did she mean by grandma is blind? What was a defective product?
He was clearly a perfect finished product!
Grandma had good taste!
Master, you epted a defective product as your disciple, which proves that your vision is not that good!
Yeah, Im old and my eyes are blurry. I was identally fooled by a defective product!
Mu Wensheng checked Lus pulse as he spoke. After a while, he said, Its okay, shes fine. Dont make such a big fuss in the future. Its normal for her body temperature to rise during pregnancy. It would be a problem if her body temperature was still the same. Uncultured! If you still want to focus on Obstetrics and Gynecology in the future, I think youd better not harm others!
Hearing that Lu was fine, Jing Yiran was relieved. He smiled brightly and did not take mu Wenshengs words to heart.
Mu Wensheng was good at beating people up and Jing Yiran was already immune to it. He would not give up studying medicine just because he was criticized. He had realized that there were so many benefits to studying medicine.
He felt that when he had a son in the future, he would let him study medicine too! He could choose not to be a doctor, but at least he could ensure that he was healthy. How good would that be?
Of course, Jing Yiran had learned to be smart. He had suffered a lot when he was a child, and now he felt that he couldnt let his child lose at the starting line. When his child was born, he would give it to Jing Tianyuan and let him teach it.
Drinking tea every day was a waste of his high IQ and unparalleled talent! Jing zhongxiu used to be a well-known figure and his achievements when he was young were still being talked about in the martial arts world. Such a powerful man was taught by Jing Tianyuan. If the child was given to him, he would definitely be an outstanding genius.
Jing Yiran didnt know that he was thinking the same thing as Jing Tianyuan. He was still feeling proud of his own cleverness.
Lu was pregnant, so mu Wensheng gave Jing Yiran three days off to take care of the pregnant woman.
But Jing Yiran only stayed at home for one day before he came to mu Wenshengs ce the next day. He didnte alone, but with Lu.
Mu Wensheng asked in surprise,whats wrong now? Whats wrong with Lu?
No, she is fine! Jing Yiran said excitedly. But I think its better to bring her to master! Im learning from you, she cane and y, and you can help take care of her. How great is that!
Mu Wenqi was angry. He was actually being treated as freebor!
Chapter 823 happiness
Chapter 823 happiness
Lu''s condition had been very stable after she got pregnant. There was nothing different about her, except that she could eat more.
But before she got pregnant, she would fall into a deep sleep asionally, and the other Lu would wake up. But ever since she got pregnant, the other Lu had never woken up.
As she let go of her past, the fear of being used as a test subject by her parents and being injected with a virus and killing her parents with her own hands slowly dissipated.
The world that used to be cold and dark had been warmed up by Jing Yiran. The symptoms of her split personality were getting better.
She no longer needed to force herself to split into another self to escape from reality.
In her indifferent personality, there was the liveliness and happiness of another Lu.
Every day, she would stay with Jing Yiran,e to mu Wensheng''s ce to watch them discuss medical skills, take a walk and walk the puppy that Jing Yiran had bought for her. Her life was peaceful and happy.
Unfortunately, the two pregnant foreign women were sent to the women and children health Hospital in muxin a month ago because they were about to give birth. Mu Wensheng asked her to take care of the two pregnant women. Otherwise, Lu could have asked them for advice on how to pay attention to pregnant women.
After Shangguan ning learned from Jing Yichen that Lu was pregnant, she took Jing Rui to mu Wensheng''s ce to see her.
She had always treated Lu as her sister and liked her honesty and innocence.
It was not easy for Lu to get pregnant and Shangguan ning was very happy for her.
Jing Tianyuan was so happy to see his great-grandson that he went straight to mu Wensheng''s storage room with Jing Rui, without even drinking the tea. He wanted to give all of mu Wensheng''s best medicinal wine to his great-grandson.
Mu Wensheng wailed,"Shangguan girl, you cane here next time, but don''t bring me such a big gift." All my treasures have been squandered by this grandfather and grandson pair! How much debt did I owe Jing Rui in my past life?"
He pulled his beard and followed into the storage room, and then came his intermittent roar of anger.
"Jing, your great-grandson can''t drink that. Put it back!"
"Brat, what do you want so many for? This is for drinking, not for bathing!"
"Jing Tianyuan, why don''t you empty my storage room? Jing Rui couldn''t finish the wine. Get out of here!"
Shangguan ning couldn''t help but bend over inughter when she heard mu Wensheng''s roaring.
Jing Rui was getting older and smarter. He used to ignore all the good things that were given to him, but now he liked to collect all kinds of good things and bring them home.
The value of mu Wensheng''s wine was so high that it was the best nutrition and health care product. Jing Rui might have to move a lot of it home today.
Lu also chuckled.
Jing Yiran washed two sticks of red raisins for Lu and put them in front of her. Then he ran to mu Wensheng''s storage room, hoping to get a share.
Shangguan ning''s opinion of Jing Yiran changed a lot when she saw how well he took care of Lu.
She didn''t expect that Jing Yiran could do this. It seemed that Lu and Jing Yiran were a good match for each other and they seemed to be very close.
She looked at Lu, who was eating red grapes one after another, and asked with a smile,"How old are the children? Do you feel ufortable anywhere?"
Lu touched her belly subconsciously and said,""It''s been less than a month, but I don''t feel ufortable at all. I''m not much different from when I wasn''t pregnant, except that I can eat more now. I just want to eat something. "
As she spoke, she stuffed another red grape into her mouth.
Shangguan ning burst intoughter,"you have always been a big eater!" It''s like two people eating together now, but in the future, you''ll probably give birth to a Hercules like you!"
Lu''s genes had been modified, and the modified genes could be inherited.
What was certain was that the child of Jing Yiran and Lu would definitely inherit some of Lu''s physical characteristics, such as speed, physical strength, healing ability, and amazing vision and hearing.
But this was what Lu was most worried about.
While the virus brought her many benefits, it also brought her a lot of inconvenience and pain. Once the virus''s content in her blood was too high, her body temperature would drop, she would be colder, and her emotions would be greatly affected.
She didn''t want her child to be like this in the future, bing an emotionless robot. She also didn''t want her child to have to undergo a blood transfusion every once in a while. It was a painful and unbearable experience.
She would rather her child be like an ordinary person, without so many different abilities, than to suffer from those unknown pains.
But everything was unknown. Lu was full of hope for the future.
A faint smile appeared on her face, and she said in a crisp baby voice,""I eat, eat, eat every day, and I want to eat all kinds of things. I remember that you used to eat a lot when you were pregnant. Do you eat more after you''re pregnant?"
Lu had protected Shangguan ning for a long time when she was pregnant, so she remembered some details of her pregnancy.
"Yeah, she''s pregnant. It''s easy to get hungry when there''s one more person to absorb nutrients."
Shangguan ning exined to Lu in detail about the precautions for pregnancy. After all, she had more experience than Lu.
She had never dreamed that she and Lu would be sisters-inw! Now, Lu had to call her sister-inw like Jing Yiran did.
The fate between people was really wonderful!
Lu listened attentively. Deep down, she was closer to Shangguan ning. Maybe it was because of the influence of the other Lu, or maybe it was because she could only sense kindness from Shangguan ning and never malice.
Judging from Shangguan ning''s behavior, it was obvious that she liked children and loved Jing Rui very much.
Lu liked children now and she was looking forward to the birth of the baby.
It was hard for her to understand why her parents would be willing to use her for a virus experiment when they gave birth to her! Even her uncle wanted to protect her and didn''t want her to be a test subject. Why didn''t her parents love her at all?
Lu, who had little life and love experience, didn''t know that not everyone was responsible as a parent. There were many parents who abandoned their children. Otherwise, there wouldn''t be so many orphans in the welfare Center.
But Lu chose to forget about the past. She was Living a Good Life now, with her own family and a friend like Shangguan ning. She was content.
She was chatting with Shangguan ning in a light-hearted tone when Jing Yiran ran out of the storage room and gave her a bottle of medicine.
"Hurry up and hide. Don''t let my master find you!"
Alright, her husband had stolen something good from her master again. Was this really a good thing?
Chapter 824
Chapter 824: Intuition
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng Lun rarely went out these days. Even if she did, she would go out with PEI Xinhua, not with Zheng Jing.
It was not known if PEI Xinhua had stopped her, but more importantly, Zheng Lun was trying to distance herself from Zheng Jing.
Zheng Lun had no other way except this.
Of course, Zheng Jing knew what his sister was thinking. He smiled bitterly in his heart, but kept a calm face, as if he didnt realize that he had been alienated by his sister.
However, themunication between the two had basically dropped to zero. It was difficult to say a few words every day. This was undoubtedly a kind of torture for the two people who were in love.
Zheng Jing had to go to work on time every day. He often met Gu qianyue at the door, who was looking for Zheng Lun.
Ever since the blind date between Zheng Lun and Gu qianyue, they had been in contact more and more frequently. In the beginning, they only met once every half a month, but now Gu qianyue woulde to the Zheng family almost every day to chat, y the piano, draw, eat and drink tea with Zheng Lun.
This made Zheng Jing feel a sense of urgency. He was afraid that PEI Xinhua would ask Zheng Lun to marry Gu qianyue before he even started his n.
Today, Zheng Jing met Gu qianyue again at the gate. He greeted Gu qianyue in a neutral tone,Youre here?
Gu qianyue had a warm smile on his face. He looked pure and gentle, like a Sunny boy-next-door.
He did not seem to notice Zheng Jings coldness and said with a smile,Yes. My mom made her favorite cherry cake and asked me to bring it here. Officer Zheng, do you want to try it before you leave?
There was a subtle gentleness in his voice, which made Zheng Jing unhappy.
Maybe it was because this man was lusting after Zheng Lun? Or was it because of an inexplicable intuition he had developed after being a Criminal Police officer for so many years?
Zheng Jings heart was cold and there was no smile on his face. He ignored Gu qianyues warm invitation and sincere smile. He said calmly,No need, Im in a hurry.
Oh, its fine, its fine. Ill treat you to my mothers cooking next time if theres a chance. Hurry up and go to work!
Zheng Jing nodded, turned around and got into the car. He drove away quickly.
The car disappeared from Gu qianyues sight. When Zheng Jing was out of sight, the smile on his face disappeared and his expression became cold and cruel, which was a sharp contrast to his fresh and handsome face.
However, this malicious look disappeared very quickly. A warm smile appeared on his face again as he carried a box of Cherry Cookies into the Zheng familys front door.
PEI Xinhua weed Gu qianyue warmly. Zheng Lun also showed a faint smile when she saw him.
Gu qianyue was the gentlest and most considerate man she had ever met. He would never do anything that would make her hate him. He respected her wishes.
And as they got to know each other more and more, the strangeness that Zheng Lun felt towards Gu qianyue gradually disappeared. They had the same interests and were ssmates, so it was not difficult for them to chat with each other.
PEI Xinhua was very happy. She felt that she could get her daughter engaged to Gu qianyue soon.
Zheng Lun actually knew what PEI Xinhua meant, but she had never thought of marrying Gu qianyue.
She would never marry anyone except Zheng Jing.
But now, she couldnt marry Zheng Jing. So she wanted to find a chance to tell PEI Xinhua that she would never get married in this life. She would stay at home with them and not go anywhere.
But if she said that she would not get married, PEI Xinhua would be sad and sad, so Zheng Lun had never dared to mention it.
PEI Xinhua deliberately kept a distance from the two of them, trying to give them as much space as possible to let them talk.
But she didnt dare to stay too far away from him. Even though Zheng Lun was very close to Gu qianyue now, she still refused to be alone with him. She insisted that PEI Xinhua should be there.
It wasnt that Zheng Lun was timid, but that she always felt a chill when she was alone with Gu qianyue. Gu qianyue looked gentle, spoke softly and behaved very elegantly, but Zheng Lun still felt scared.
Moreover, this feeling seemed to be getting stronger and stronger as she got to know Gu qianyue better.
Zheng Lun felt sorry for Gu qianyue, who had been so caring to her. He was a good man, but she always thought he was a bad one.
But no matter what, no matter how guilty she felt, Zheng Lun was still afraid to be alone with Gu qianyue. She would beg PEI Xinhua to stay with her pitiful and frightened eyes.
PEI Xinhua thought that her daughter was just afraid of being with the opposite sex, so she didnt think too much about it. But Zheng Luns eyes were so heartbreaking that she didnt want Zheng Lun to be under too much pressure, so she worked near Zheng Lun. Sometimes she cleaned the house, sometimes she washed fruits for them, and most of the time, she was reading somepany documents.
Although PEI Xinhua was reading the information, she would also pay attention to their every move.
She was worried for Gu qianyue. He was too honest. He had never been in a rtionship before and didnt know how to pursue girls. He had known Zheng Lun for so long, but he had never held her hand.
How was this the rhythm of falling in love!
If this continued, when would they be able to be together?
Luckily, Gu qianyue was honest. Otherwise, Zheng Lun might have been scared away if he had held her hand.
Seeing that PEI Xinhua was not far away, Zheng Lun felt much more at ease. She could speak freely and naturally, and Gu qianyue would not be too conflicted.
Seeing that Gu qianyue had brought her more desserts, she thanked him gratefully,Thank you for bringing me food again. Please tell Auntie not to cook in the future. Its been too hard on Auntie. I feel too embarrassed.
Gu qianyues mother was very good at making desserts. Although Gu qianyue brought only a few desserts each time, they were all very exquisite, like works of art. They were so beautiful that people didnt want to eat them.
Todays cherry pastry was an alluring pink color. It was shaped like a peach flower, and the center was filled with fresh cherries and chocte.
Zheng Lun had eaten this kind of snack several times. It was her favorite and also the most time-consuming one.
Actually, she didnt like desserts. She just had a special liking for cherries.
Every time she ate cherries, she would be reminded of that sunny afternoon when she and Zheng Jing were at the cherry Park in the suburbs.
She would think that not only the cherries were sweet, but even the air was sweet.
Red cherries as bright and beautiful as manao were the most beautiful symbol of love for Zheng Lun.
Chapter 825-heavy doubts
Chapter 825-heavy doubts
Gu qianyue could tell that Zheng Lun liked cherries very much, so he asked his mother to make them for her.
There weren''t any fresh cherries in the country during this season.| The cherries her mother used to make the snacks were flown in from abroad. They were very expensive in the import supermarket and were sold by one piece, not by catties.
However, although the Gu family wasn''t rich, they could still afford a few cherries.
"It''s okay. My mom loves to make these desserts. She''s always thinking about these things, so she doesn''t feel tired at all. If there''s anything you like to eat, tell me and I''ll ask her to make it for you. "
Gu qianyue pushed the snacks to Zheng Lun and said gently,"Try it. My mom made it this morning. The cherries are the freshest. I added more cherries this time. You''ll like it."
Zheng Lun had just had breakfast and wasn''t hungry, but Gu qianyue was looking at her expectantly, so she couldn''t say no.
Besides, this was her favorite snack. She could eat a little more even if she was full.
Zheng Lun picked up a pretty peach-shaped snack and ate it in small bites.
The dessert was fragrant, with the sweetness of cherries and the smoothness of chocte. It was indeed very delicious.
"Auntie''s cooking skills are getting better and better. She can open a snack shop!"
Zheng Lun praised sincerely.
"If it''s delicious, eat more. If she knows that you like it, she''ll definitely be very happy. I don''t think she can open a snack shop. Her cooking skills are not as good as you say. Otherwise, you''d have finished all the desserts!"
Gu qianyue said jokingly. His face was still gentle, his eyes were smiling, and his voice was very gentle.
Zheng Lun felt that something was wrong, but she couldn''t tell what it was.
This kind of subtle awkwardness had already appeared more than once.
Every time Gu qianyue said that, Zheng Lun would have a creepy feeling.
This feeling was too strange, because no matter how she looked at it, Gu qianyue didn''t look scary at all. On the contrary, he looked like a shy and introverted boy-next-door, who easily won people''s favor with his harmless appearance.
Luckily, this feeling would disappear soon. Zheng Lun had had this feeling with other people before, so she was used to it and didn''t take it to heart.
She followed Gu qianyue''s order and ate two more pieces of snacks, then stopped.
Every time Gu qianyue came, he would bring gifts. Sometimes, it was a little toy, sometimes it was a potted nt, and most of the time, it was a snack.
However, what made Zheng Lun feel strange was that he always brought enough desserts for her. He would never bring more just because she liked it.
For example, the snacks he brought today were packed in an exquisite box. There were ten beautiful little peaches in it, and each of them was only the size of a walnut. If one was really hungry, they wouldn''t even be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth.
But Zheng Lun had never asked Gu qianyue why she didn''t bring more. If she did, people might think that she had never eaten desserts and would insist on it.
After all, Zheng Lun had been Living a Good Life ever since she came to the Zheng family. She had eaten all kinds of delicious food and didn''t have to eat desserts.
She had finished three small peaches, and there were seven left in the box.
Gu qianyue picked up one and ate it. He smiled gently and said,""Lun, isn''t my mom''s dessert good this time? Hmm ... It tastes pretty good to me. Tell me what''s not good and I''ll ask my mom to improve it. "
Zheng Lun shook her head immediately."No, no, no. You have misunderstood. It is very delicious. But ... I am full. I can''t eat anymore."
She was a little surprised. She felt sorry for Gu qianyue if she didn''t eat those desserts.
"Besides, these desserts are too beautiful. I can''t bear to eat them!"
Zheng Lun was telling the truth. The desserts were very delicate and she wanted to save some for Zheng Jing.
However, the strange feeling in her heart came again.
She vaguely felt that every time Gu qianyue brought snacks, he would always quietly and subtly persuade her to eat more.
However, it seemed that everyone was like this, willing to persuade others to eat their own or their family''s food.
"What''s there to be reluctant about? these desserts were made for you to eat. If you don''t eat them, wouldn''t it be a waste? If you like it, you can ask my mom to make more next time. That way, you can eat some and save some. "
Gu qianyue smiled kindly, picked up a snack, and slowly ate it. He then teased,""Aiya, if you don''t eat, I''ll finish it all. You''ll be scolded by my mother when you go home!"
As he said this, he picked up a snack and handed it to Zheng Lun. He said in a pitiful tone,"Can you kindly help me eat one? It would be a waste if you don''t eat it. The cherries won''t be fresh after a few hours, and the taste won''t be good. "
Gu qianyue had already said so. If Zheng Lun didn''t eat it, she would be in deep trouble.
Therefore, even though she wasn''t hungry at all, she still finished all the remaining cherry desserts.
The good thing was that the desserts were indeed delicious and small in size. Zheng Lun didn''t feel full even after she ate all of them.
Seeing that she had finished all the desserts, Gu qianyue said with a happy smile,""That''s more like it. I''ll only be able to exin to my mother when I get home after you''ve eaten it. Otherwise, she might not let me in!"
Zheng Lun took a sip of tea and smiled without saying anything.
She had a gentle personality and a simple mind, but this did not mean that she was a person who wouldpletely submit to adversity.
Gu qianyue forced her to eat desserts with the family card, which made her feel very conflicted.
Gu qianyue had done this kind of thing before, and he did it very cleverly. No one could tell that he was doing it intentionally, but it made Zheng Lun feel very ufortable.
Every time Gu qianyue made Zheng Lun eat this and that, PEI Xinhua always thought that Gu qianyue was very considerate and caring, but Zheng Lun didn''t feel the same way.
It was easy to tell whether a man was good to her or not.
Zheng Lun was meticulous, innocent and smart. She could clearly feel Zheng Jing''s love for her, but she felt that Gu qianyue was just pretending.
A woman''s intuition was terrifying. She could determine the truth without any evidence or evidence.
The next day, Gu qianyue came again. This time, he brought him some snacks.| Mom made vani waffle on the spot.
At the same time, Gu qianyue was still trying to persuade Zheng Lun to eat more.
Chapter 826
Chapter 826: The little fish that ate the Huafu cake is dead
Trantor: 549690339
Lun, you are too thin. You should eat more.
Gu qianyues smile was gentle and kind. He picked up a pancake with a stic fork and handed it to Zheng Lun.Here, eat it. Ill be very happy to see you eat!
Zheng Lun took the pancake but didnt eat it like yesterday. Instead, she put it back into the box and said with a smile,Thank you, but I dont like to eat waffle. My brother likes it, so Ill leave it for him!
PEI Xinhua looked at her daughter in surprise.
Zheng Lun was never a picky eater. She ate anything and never wasted food. This might have something to do with her experience of starving when she was young.
Waffle was one of Zheng Luns favorite desserts. Why did she say that she didnt like it today?
PEI Xinhua took a look at the Golden yellow bread in the box. It was fragrant and had strawberry jam, which was Zheng Luns favorite.
It was pretty good. Gu qianyues mother must have made it ording to Zheng Luns taste.
The reason why Zheng Lun didnt like these pancakes was not because of the waffle itself, but because she didnt like Gu qianyue.
Yesterday, Zheng Lun had asked her if Gu qianyue didnt have to work. Why did hee every day?
PEI Xinhua knew that Zheng Lun was annoyed by that quiet person.
In fact, PEI Xinhua had some doubts about this question, and she had asked Gu qianyue about it before. However, Gu qianyue always smiled and said that he had very little to do in school. He only needed to teach the students asionally. Most of the time, he was by himself and was very free.
However, no other schools teacher seemed to have as much freedom as he did, right?
Zhao Anan was the principal of University of X and she had the right to decide her own time, but she couldnt go out to y every day.
But it was not a big deal for PEI Xinhua. It was a good thing that Gu qianyue was willing to stay with Zheng Lun even without going to work.
As for Zheng Lun lying that she didnt like to eat waffle, PEI Xinhua subconsciously chose to protect her daughter and didnt expose her little lie.
She picked up a waffle and ate it, then said to Gu qianyue with a smile,This child is not blessed. The waffle your mother makes is as sweet and fragrant as the Best Pastry Chef. If she doesnt eat it, ah Jing and I will have it easy!
Gu qianyue still looked very happy.How can that be? Lun is the most fortunate girl! I wont bring any more waffle next time, Ill ask my mom to make something else, and you and brother Zheng Jing can have these waffle.
Although he was smiling, he looked at Zheng Lun with a hint of evilness in his eyes. It was so fast that Zheng Lun almost thought she was seeing things.
But Zheng Lun believed that she was not seeing things. She refused to eat the pancakes today on purpose.
It was a little pique, but also a little probing.
But the result made Zheng Lun feel a little lost.
She was still far from being able to analyze the other partys behavior and purpose with a small test like Zheng Jing. She just felt that something was not right and did not want to be forced to eat.
She felt very warm towards her mothers protection. Her mother was still the best to her. When she heard her say that she didnt like it, she didnt ask for a reason and directly continued the topic.
Zheng Lun held PEI Xinhuas arm and refused to let her go. She leaned against her and called her softly, just like when she was a child.Mom, qianyue is right. Im really the most blessed one!
PEI Xinhua knew what Zheng Lun meant. She was saying that she was the most fortunate one to have a mother like her.
She patted her daughters hand happily. Her heart melted because of her daughters reliance on her. Zheng Lun was really good at acting coquettishly. Every time she acted coquettishly, the whole family couldnt resist her and would spoil her to the heavens.
After Gu qianyue had left, PEI Xinhua took her daughters hand and asked her softly,Lun, why didnt you eat waffle today?
Mom, the feeling qianyue gives me is a bit ... Strange. I cant tell what it is, but I feel that something is not right. Yesterday and a few days ago, he forced me to eat snacks. He looked like he cared about me, but big brother never forced me to eat!
She couldnt help butpare Zheng Jing with Gu qianyue and felt that Zheng Jing was better.
I was a little angry today, so I said I wasnt eating, but he ate all the waffle he brought, which is a little strange, right?
PEI Xinhua hadnt really noticed this problem. Now that Zheng Lun reminded her, she also felt a little strange.
Gu qianyue had brought some snacks for Zheng Lun. Even if Zheng Lun didnt want to eat them, he shouldnt have finished them all.
She found an excuse for Gu qianyue unconsciously.Perhaps he didnt want to waste his talent.| Wheres the dessert mom made?
Finally, there was a man that Zheng Lun could talk to. He couldnt let Zheng Lun hate him so much! Where else could he find such a suitable person in the future?
Yes, he said the same thing himself.
Zheng Lun was not sure herself. Although she felt that Gu qianyue was a little weird sometimes, he was a kind and nice person overall.
Perhaps she was being too sensitive!
In the evening, when Zheng Lun was tidying up the box of desserts on the table, she saw some crumbs of the Chinese pancake. She picked them up and put them into the fish tank to feed her four anchovy.
The four anchovy happily ate the crumbs and swam around in the water, seemingly looking for food.
Zheng Lun didnt dare to feed them too much. The anchovy was small and only needed a little bit.
Yesterday, she had fed them cherry crushes. It seemed that they were addicted to eating snacks, and they swam more freely than eating ordinary fish food.
Zheng Lun smiled happily. It seemed that Gu qianyues mother was so good at cooking that even the fish liked it.
However, her happiness vanished the moment she saw the fish tank the next morning.
The four beautiful anchovy were now all floating in the fish tank with their bellies turned over. They were no longer as happy as they were yesterday, and they were dead.
Zheng Lun burst into tears.
Zheng Jing had bought these four little anchovy for her on her birthdayst year.
She had raised them for more than a year, from the size of soybeans to the size of copper coins, and she had already developed feelings for them.
Now that they were all dead, Zheng Lun was very sad.
Did this mean that she would never be able to be with her brother in the future?
Otherwise, why would the little fish that her brother had given her die?
Zheng Jing had juste downstairs when he saw Zheng Lun standing in front of the fish tank, tears falling down like a broken string of pearls.
He walked up quickly, grabbed Zheng Lun and asked anxiously,Lun, whats wrong?
Chapter 827: The detective father and son
Chapter 827: The detective father and son
Zheng Lun turned around and cried sadly."Brother, my Phoenix-tail fish are all dead! They''re all dead!"
Zheng Jing took a look at the fish tank and saw that the four lively fish were dead.
He didn''t care about the fish''s death. He only felt sorry for Zheng Lun.
He wiped Zheng Lun''s tears gently and coaxed her. "It''s okay, I''ll buy you more. It''s normal for small fish to die. It''s already very impressive that you''ve been raising them for so long without any problems. "
Zheng Lun had always liked flowers and nts, fish and turtles, and that was why Zheng Jing had bought her fish as a gift.
However, there was a big problem with buying living creatures, which was that they all died easily.
If he had known that Zheng Lun would be so sad when the fish died, he would not have bought the fish.
PEI Xinhua and Zheng qinan also heard Zheng Lun crying and thought that something had happened to her, so they hurried downstairs.
Knowing that the Phoenix-tail fish she raised was dead, Zheng qinan heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he couldn''t help but ask in confusion,""Weren''t you fine yesterday? You''ve been raising them for so long and they''re all fine. How did they all die suddenly? Other people raise fish and even if they die, they die slowly one by one. How can they all die at once?"
"Did Lun feed them too many waffles yesterday and they are stuffed to death?" PEI Xinhua said with uncertainty.
Zheng Lun''s eyes were red."No, I only gave them a little bit. I was afraid that they would be full. Look at their t bellies. I don''t think they are full." Did they die because they weren''t used to eating snacks?"
As she spoke, she began to me herself. "It''s all my fault. I read in the book that I could feed them snack crumbs, so I learned to feed them. In the end, they all died ..."
"It''s fine, it''s fine. If he''s dead, then so be it. I''ll buy more for you. You can buy as much as you want. Don''t be sad. "
Zheng Jing patted her back tofort her. He didn''t care about PEI Xinhua and Zheng qinan''s eyes and wiped the tears off her face affectionately.
However, although PEI Xinhua''s eyes were a little unfriendly, she still felt sorry for her daughter. She did not say anything and turned to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the family with the servants.
Zheng qinan''s upational habit was acting up. He walked to the fish tank and carefully looked at the water and the fresh seaweed in the fish tank. Then he picked up the fish and looked at them one by one.
Seeing that he was reading so seriously, Zheng Lun couldn''t help but move closer to him and asked in a low voice,"Dad, do you want to solve the case?"
Zheng qinan was amused by his daughter''s innocent and serious look. He stroked her soft hair and said with a smile,""Yeah, four fish lost their lives just like that. One of us is the director of the Public Security Bureau, and the other is the captain of the criminal Police. If we work together to solve the case and still can''t get a result, I''m afraid we don''t have to work anymore!"
Affected by his smile, Zheng Lun also smiled."How could that be? you and my brother are the best!"
She looked at Zheng Jing and lowered her head again."However, the four of them must have died from my random feeding. You don''t have to investigate, I''m the culprit."
"No," Zheng qinan said lightly."That''s not necessarily true."
"Is there any other reason?" Zheng Lun raised her head in surprise.
Zheng Jing also started to pay attention to it. He looked at his father and asked in a deep voice,"Dad, is there something suspicious?"
"I''m not too sure, but this fish definitely didn''t die from eating too many snacks. Their deaths are too strange. Take the fish and the tank to the forensic doctor for a test and ask them toe up with a professional test report. "
Ah?
There''s no need for that, right?
Zheng Lun was a little surprised.
The four fish were not expensive, but she was so sad because they were given to Zheng Jing and he had kept them for so long. She had beenforted by Zheng Jing and Zheng qinan.
He had never heard of anyone sending a dead fish to the forensic doctor for identification!
"Dad, this ... Is this really necessary? They''re just small fish, not humans. Wouldn''t it be making a mountain out of a molehill if we did a DNA test?"
Zheng Lun was a bit nervous. She felt that she had caused trouble for her father and brother again.
Would his brother''s colleaguesugh at him for spoiling his sister so much that he had to let the forensic doctor do a test even after the death of a few small fish? he was abusing thew enforcement resources!
"Lun, don''t you believe in dad''s professionalism and judgment over the years?" Zheng qinan said with a smile.
"No, no, no, dad, I believe you!" Zheng Lun shook her head immediately.
Of course, she believed in Zheng qinan. He would never do useless work. No matter howplicated the case was, it would be clear and organized in his hands. The case solving rate of A city was the highest. Many cases from other provinces and cities would turn to Zheng qinan for help because of his keen judgment.
Could it be that her fish really didn''t just die?
Zheng Jing''s heart grew heavy at Zheng qinan''s words.
He had already guessed Zheng qinan''s meaning. He must have thought that there was something wrong with the snack that Zheng Lun had fed the anchovy.
In the past two months, Gu qianyue had been bringing snacks for Zheng Lun every few days. Both Zheng Jing and Zheng qinan knew that PEI Xinhua had praised Gu qianyue in front of them many times.
Zheng Lun had said that all the fish died after she fed them with the snack crumbs. It was perfectly reasonable and normal for Zheng qinan to think that there was something wrong with the snack.
Even though it didn''t seem reasonable for the snacks to have problems!
Both Zheng Jing and Zheng qinan had systematically studied the investigation and reasoning of cases. Zheng qinan had always admired Sherlock Holmes''s saying: After eliminating all the impossible possibilities, the remaining one, no matter how unbelievable it was, was the truth.
In other words, Zheng qinan had started to suspect Gu qianyue!
The father and son looked at each other and saw shock and anger in each other''s eyes.
But they didn''t show it on their faces. Zheng Lun and PEI Xinhua knew nothing about it. When Gu qianyue came, one of them greeted him with a smile and the other invited him to have breakfast with her.
After the meal, Zheng Jing greeted Gu qianyue as usual and walked out with the fish tank.
Gu qianyue nced at the fish tank curiously and asked casually,""Why is the anchovy that Lun raised dead?"
"Oh, he died from Lun Lun''s waffle. Maybe he ate too much." Zheng Jing seemed to be answering casually.
However, Gu qianyue''s pupils suddenly shrank when he heard such an ordinary answer.
Although his facial expression changed very slightly and disappeared in a sh, Zheng Jing and Zheng qinan still caught it.
The two of them were shocked at the same time!
It was him!
There really was a problem with the desserts!
Chapter 828: The wolf in sheeps clothing
Chapter 828: The wolf in sheep''s clothing
Zheng qinan and Zheng Jing had been in this line of work for a long time, and they had umted a terrifying amount of experience in solving cases. It was impossible for ordinary people to lie under their eyes.
Gu qianyue obviously had a strong mind and a perfect disguise, but when someone poked at his most vulnerable spot, he would have an instinctive reaction.
Zheng Jing sneered in his heart. He could barely contain his anger.
It turned out that Gu qianyue was a wolf in sheep''s clothing!
Their entire family had made a mistake!
Luckily, he had never nned to give Zheng Lun away, let alone let her marry Gu qianyue. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Zheng Jing walked out with the fish tank in his arms. Gu qianyue''s hands were clenched tightly under the table.
It was only when he realized that the Zheng family treated him exactly the same as before that he slowly let go of his hand. The darkness in the depths of his eyes also slowly dissipated, and he returned to his usual gentle and gentle self.
He had also brought snacks for Zheng Lun today.
Zheng qinan sipped his tea and looked at Gu qianyue thoughtfully passing snacks to Zheng Lun, pouring her hot tea and preparing tissues for her.
It was no wonder that PEI Xinhua thought highly of Gu qianyue. Gu qianyue was gentle, good-looking, had a good personality, and came from a good family. He took care of Zheng Lun as if she was his family. Gu qianyue seemed to be a very suitable son-inw.
The most important thing was that he and Zheng Lun were very simr. They both liked quiet and didn''t like to be too noisy. They wouldn''t have any big conflicts in the future.
Zheng qinan looked at the snacks in the box and smiled.""Qianyue, your mother''s cooking skills are really good. I thought that Lun''s mother was good at making desserts, but I didn''t know that there was a mountain beyond the mountain! No wonder Lun likes to eat it. "
As he spoke, he picked up a small piece of dessert and tasted it.
However, the snack was a little crunchy, so he bit it and a small piece fell to the ground.
Gu qianyue nced at the broken pieces on the ground, then looked away and said with a humble smile,""You tter me, uncle. Auntie PEI is also good at making desserts. But my mom has been studying it at home every day since she saw that Lun likes it, so she has a lot of different dishes."
Zheng qinan said a few more words to Gu qianyue with a smile, then got up and left for work.
Usually, he would only talk to Gu qianyue for a short while, and today was no exception.
Before he left, he said to the servants at home,""Go and clean up under the table. I dropped all the snacks on the floor just now."
The servant agreed with a smile. She put all the snack crumbs under the table into the trash can and then walked out with the garbage bag.
Outside the vi, Zheng qinan was waiting in the car.
The servant walked up to him respectfully and carefully took out the snack crumbs. She put them in a transparent stic bag and handed it to him.
Zheng qinan took the stic bag and quickly drove away.
Zheng Jing was in charge of testing the fish, while Zheng qinan had someone to test the ingredients of the snacks.
The test results came out one after another.
The fish died of poisoning, and the undigested waffle particles in the fish''s stomach contained a poison extracted from nts.
But today''s snacks were not poisonous.
Zheng Lun''s life was at stake. The father and son didn''t go home after getting the test results, but met in the office of the police station.
"He''s very careful. The snacks he brought today are safe."
Zheng qinan took a deep puff of his cigarette and blew out the smoke. His expression was serious and murderous.
He rarely smoked, but every time he did, he would definitely kill someone.
Gu qianyue had crossed Zheng qinan''s bottom line. He would never allow anyone to hurt his daughter!
Zheng Jing was even angrier than Zheng qinan. He couldn''t control his anger and wanted to go home and shoot that bastard to death.
But he was not Jing Yichen, who could deal with things perfectly by killing people. His power and authority were not enough for him to do such crazy things.
If he killed Gu qianyue, his parents would definitely not let him go.
They would definitely settle this matter through normal means, which meant that they needed evidence! He needed a lot of evidence!
Zheng Jing suppressed his anger with great difficulty and said coldly,"No wonder the desserts he brought were just enough for Lunlun to eat. He didn''t leave anything behind and always wanted to finish everything! It turned out that there was something wrong with the snacks. He had already prepared to destroy all the evidence! How dare you poison Lun in front of us? you must be tired of living!"
"We don''t know much about Gu qianyue now, and we don''t know if his parents are involved in this. Let''s not act rashly. We''ll let your sister stay in our vi in the suburbs for the next two days. We''ll tell the public that she went to Germany to visit a sick friend. We''ll find out what happened first, then let her get in touch with Gu qianyue, or it''ll be too dangerous. "
Zheng Jing blurted out."She must be scared and not safe living alone in the suburbs. I will go with her."
Zheng qinan looked straight at his son, his eyes sharp as if he wanted to see through his heart.
Zheng Jing didn''t give in and looked at his father openly.
After a long time, Zheng qinan finally said,"you have to know what you''re doing. Don''t do what you shouldn''t do. Otherwise, you won''t be protecting your sister, you''ll be harming her. Do you understand?"
It was a special time now. Zheng qinan couldn''t care less about what was going on between Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun. The most important thing now was to keep Zheng Lun alive and find out the reason why Gu qianyue had poisoned her.
Zheng Jing nodded heavily,"dad, don''t worry. I understand. I know what to do." As long as she''s still my sister, I won''t mess around. "
Zheng qinan stubbed out the cigarette and put it in the ashtray. He said in a low voice,""It''s good that you understand. You two are the most beloved children of your mother and I. In our eyes, Lun is our daughter. "
"My mom ..." PEI Xinhua would never agree to let him and Zheng Lun live alone in a vi in the suburbs.
"Don''t worry, leave your mother to me. She''s not an ordinary woman, so I''ll tell her the truth. Even if she knows the truth, she won''t give herself away."
Zheng qinan trusted his wife very much. They had been together for so many years, and he had a deep understanding of PEI Xinhua''s ability.
She was now willing to be the woman behind him and was willing to work hard to take care of her son and daughter. However, she was also a slightly famous singer when she was young, so she had a very strong heart and was very knowledgeable.
Zheng Jing was relieved. As long as Zheng qinan stepped in, there would be no problem with PEI Xinhua. Then he could make a promise to PEI Xinhua and Zheng Lun would not have to stay at home to see that dangerous Gu qianyue.
Chapter 829
Chapter 829: The mystery of her past (1)
Trantor: 549690339
Have you found out what poison it is?
Zheng qinan was most concerned about this question.
The four anchovy had only eaten a little bit of the snack crumbs before they all died, and Zheng Lun had eaten so many of them that she had lost count. It was too dangerous. They only realized that there was something wrong with the desserts today. What a waste of their time being the director of the Public Security Bureau and the criminal Police!
That Gu qianyue deserves to die! He had disguised himself so well that he could even hurt such an innocent and kind girl like Zheng Lun.
If the poison was very powerful, Zheng Lun might be killed.
The most urgent thing now was to find out what kind of poison it was and how to cure it.
Zheng Jing shook his head with a serious look.The forensic skills of the criminal Police are limited. He only knew that it was a slow-acting poison. But he did not know what kind of poison it was. He said that he had never seen it before. I have sent all the information to Mu Qing and he is reading it for me. I think he will have some news soon.
Zheng qinan couldnt help but frown. The forensic doctor didnt know what poison it was!
The forensic doctor assigned to the criminal Police team of A city was not as limited as Zheng Jing had said, butpared to the top international doctors like Mu Qing, he was not that good.
In fact, the forensic doctors in the criminal Police team were the most professional, and they had gone through strict selection and systematic andprehensive training before they took up the post. Otherwise, the forensic doctors were too amateurish and would cause great trouble to solve cases.
Even the most professional forensic doctor didnt know what kind of poison it was, which showed that Gu qianyue was very good at it.
Get someone to investigate Gu qianyue and his parents immediately. I want to check all eighteen generations of his ancestors!
Zheng qinan was really angry. His wife had spent so much effort to find a partner for Zheng Lun, but it turned out that he was a ruthless person who could kill at any time!
Gu qianyue used to be Zheng Luns ssmate and his parents knew her family. How could he have poisoned Zheng Lun for no reason?
Zheng Lun was the kind of person who would never argue with others. She didnt even know how to scold people. She was timid. How could she have such a deep hatred for Gu qianyue?
There must be something wrong. They just hadnt realized it yet. Maybe the blind date back then was a trap!
Jing, if you dont have enough power, go to master Jing!
Zheng qinan clenched his fists tightly and said in a serious tone,This Gu qianyue is definitely not a simple man. Im afraid we cant do it on our own. We need the help of young master Jing.
Jing Yichens master Jing was the most respected name in the entire A city. Even the mayor would call him master Jing with respect. Very few people in A city dared to call him by his full name.
Zheng qinan had been the director of the Public Security Bureau for so many years. Besides his own ability, the most important reason was that Zheng Jing and Jing Yichen were on good terms. No one in A city dared to touch the Zheng family.
Now, many people in A city had a strong background. A powerful position like the Public Security Bureau Director was coveted by many people. If one didnt have a strong background, no matter how strong ones ability to solve a case was, they would be pushed down and might even be a scapegoat.
Okay, dad. I will go to master Jing for help when I hear from Mu Qing.
Zheng Jing agreed at once. He had no pressure to ask Jing Yichen for help. Although Jing Yichen was a cold man, he took care of everyone around him. He would solve any problem with the highest efficiency.
After discussing the details, the father and son started to wait for the result from Mu Qing in the office.
The office was silent. After a while, Zheng qinan asked,Hows your search going?
You ... You know about it? Zheng Jing was startled.
He had been hiding the fact that he was looking for Zheng Luns parents from both Zheng Lun and his own parents, in case they would be sad.
Youre using the people from the criminal Police unit. How could I, the director of the Public Security Bureau, not know?
Zheng qinan sighed softly. He touched a photo of the four of his family on his desk and said in a low voice,
By right, since Lun came to our house, we should help her find her biological parents. But your mom and I are selfish. Were afraid that her parents will take her away after we find them. Were even more afraid that she wont acknowledge us as her foster parents and will only be close to her biological parents.
This kind of thing was not umon. Zheng qinan had seen too many examples of this.
After all, blood was thicker than water. Most biological parents were born with the ability topletely overwhelm their adoptive parents.
Zheng qinan had treated Zheng Lun as his own daughter, even more so than his own daughter, because she had not received as much love as the real Zheng Lun had when she was still alive.
Deep down, he really didnt want Zheng Lun to find her biological parents, especially when Zheng Lun was a child. They hadnt had any familial ties yet, so he didnt want Zheng Lun to acknowledge her parents.
Now that she had grown up, he was not too worried.
Because Zheng qinan also knew that Zheng Lun treated him and PEI Xinhua as her biological parents, and the Zheng family as her own home. She had never even thought of looking for her parents.
She loved the Zheng family so much that she would not leave even if she found her biological parents.
However, it was selfish of them after all. They adopted Zheng Lun and her biological parents lost a daughter. If they were families who loved their children, they would be in great pain.
However, when Zheng qinan had adopted Zheng Lun, he had checked her identity. ording to the human traffickers, she had been sold by her parents, instead of being lost or abducted.
This was also the reason why Zheng qinan had not looked for Zheng Luns biological parents for so many years-it was not because he had stolen someone elses daughter-but because he had adopted a poor little girl who had been abandoned by her cruel parents.
Zheng Jing knew what his parents were thinking. He said seriously,Dad, dont worry. Lun is not an ungrateful person. You and mom have taught her well. She is so sensible and close to us. Even if we find her biological parents, she will still stay in our family!
Zheng qinan wasforted by his sons words.
What he was most pleased about was that his family had been treating Zheng Lun with sincerity. Zheng Lun was a good girl who knew how to repay kindness. She had always been sincere to them.
Although there were some obstacles in the family, they were generally happy and warm.
Zheng Luns childhood experience made her cherish the hard-won happy life very much. She was very attached to and intimate with them and it was impossible for her to leave them.
Chapter 830: The mystery of her past (2)
Chapter 830: The mystery of her past (2)
In fact, Zheng Jing had been looking for Zheng Lun''s parents sincest year.
If he wanted to marry Zheng Lun, the best way would be to get her parents to acknowledge her and then he would marry Zheng Lun. In this way, no one would use their identity as siblings to make a fuss. If Zheng Lun''s registered residence was removed, they would no longer be siblings. Their marriage would be legal and wouldn''t vite the traditional ethics.| Morality.
Although PEI Xinhua and Zheng qinan would be heartbroken if their biological parents took them away, this heartache was only temporary. As long as he could marry Zheng Lun, their family of four would live the same life as before.
No, he would be happier than before!
However, things did not go well. Zheng Jing had encountered many difficulties.
Many clues had been lost after so many years. The human trafficker who sold the children died of illness in prison after being sentenced. Zheng Lun had no idea where he had bought the children.
Fortunately, Zheng Lun was not the only one who had been sold. When Zheng Lun had been adopted, all the children who had been forced to beg on the street had been sent to the best welfare home in A city by Zheng qinan. Except for a few who had died of malnutrition, most of the little beggars had grown up healthy. Some of them had even found their biological parents and were taken home to live a happy and stable life.
Zheng Jing went to look for the little beggars one by one. Most of the little beggars were around ten years old, and few were around six years old like Zheng Lun. Zheng Lun couldn''t remember anything about the past, but the other children had a deep memory of the sad and painful begging experience.
Some of the kids remembered Zheng Lun, especially those who had been sold with her.
Zheng Jing had been searching for more than half a year based on the intermittent clues they had provided before he finally found a clue.
He had been to almost a hundred families that had lost their children and all of them matched Zheng Lun''s situation. But the DNA test results were different.
He had not found Zheng Lun''s real parents untilst month.
This family was very poor and had many children. They didn''t have any impression of Zheng Lun except for one of the married men. He even took out the only family photo in the house. Zheng Lun was young but Zheng Jing recognized her at first sight.
Zheng Lun''s appearance had changed a lot, but Zheng Jing could still remember what she looked like when she was young.
However, their parents had passed awayst year. The couple waszy and sold their children when they couldn''t afford to raise them. So far, they had sold six children.
Zheng Lun''s parents had passed away and there was no way to do a DNA test. So Zheng Jing asked for the opinion of Zheng Lun''s siblings and each of them paid arge sum of money for the test.
However, to Zheng Jing''s surprise, all of Zheng Lun''s brothers and sisters who had not been sold were blood-rted, while those who had been sold were not.
Zheng Lun had no blood rtionship with those people!
It turned out that Zheng Lun''s so-called parents were also human traffickers!
They were not Zheng Lun''s real parents!
The clues stopped here. No matter how hard Zheng Jing investigated, he could not find out how Zheng Lun had been abducted by the couple.
"Dad, I didn''t find Lun''s biological parents. The parents in Lun''s memory are actually human traffickers. She was too young at that time and might not even remember what her parents looked like."
Zheng Jing sounded a little depressed. It would be difficult to marry her if he could not find Zheng Lun''s parents.
He couldn''t possibly find a pair of fake parents to im Zheng Lun.
Such a lie could be easily exposed, which would be bad for Zheng Lun in the future.
Besides, if Zheng Lun might not have been sold by her parents, she might have been abducted by human traffickers. Her parents might have been looking for her all the time.
"The couple who sold her were not Lun''s biological parents?" Zheng qinan was also shocked.
If Zheng Lun''s parents were someone else, if her parents were not the heartless people who sold their daughter, then maybe he really needed to help Zheng Lun find her biological parents.
"Yes. I only found out the family background of the couplest month. They are dead now, but their children have different genes from Lun. Lun is not their biological child, so they sold her."
Zheng Jing told Zheng qinan what he had found. He knew that Zheng qinan was not an inflexible person and was a man of justice. He had to tell him everything so that he would agree to help them find Zheng Lun''s biological parents.
"Six children were sold and I only found four. With Lun, there are five in total. I heard that thest one is dead."
It had been a long time and Zheng Jing had to rely on Jing Yichen''s help to find the four children, otherwise he would not have been able to find out the truth so quickly.
Zheng qinan was silent for a long time, then he whispered,""Jing, let me go back and discuss with your mother before making a decision. We have raised Lun for so long and have regarded her as our own daughter. If you want us to find her biological parents and send her back, you are stabbing a knife into our hearts. You''re not a parent yet, so you won''t understand this feeling. You''ll understand when you have your own children. "
Zheng Jing knew that he couldn''t convince his father so easily, so he nodded."Okay, this is what I should do. You should discuss this with my mother."
The conversation between the father and son was very serious. When Zheng Jing''s cell phone rang, they were both excited to hear the result of Mu Qing''s investigation.
Zheng Jing picked up the phone and heard Mu Qing''s tired voice. It was daytime in China, butte at night in Germany. Mu Qing had been analyzing the data overnight to identify the poison as quickly as possible.
"Brother, I''m so tired! However, he finally figured out the ingredients of the medicine! This poison is extracted from the pollen of Mexico candle flowers and mixed with other chemicals. It''s a slow-acting poison. If the amount is small, there won''t be any problems within a month. "
Although Mu Qing sounded tired, his tone was serious and serious.
"However, if you take this poison for a long time, you will feel a burning pain in your mouth, and then blisters will appear. When it is more serious, your throat will be red and swollen, and you will keep coughing. The hoarseness is not serious, but the worst is that this poison can cause cancer. People who are poisoned often die of throat cancer, but the cause can not be found."

Cancer-causing?
Zheng Jing and Zheng qinan gasped at the same time.
Gu qianyue was so cruel!
He wanted to kill Zheng Lun without anyone knowing!
But Zheng Lun had nothing to do with him, so why would he do that?
Zheng Jing and Zheng qinan were both furious. They wanted to rush to the Gu family, grab the Gu couples clothes and ask them what kind of cruel son they had raised.
However, what Mu Qing said next made Zheng Jings heart sink.
Jing, thats not the most important thing. The most important thing is that this poison is a mutated version of the poison that yang Muyan used to poison Zheng Lun. Its an upgraded version!
Zheng Jings face changed and even his voice changed.Yang Muyan?
Yang Muyans slyness and schemes made both Zheng Jing and Mu Qing scared. Theirbined schemes were not even one-tenth of yang Muyan s. Yang Muyan was a devil through and through!
Even though she was already dead, her soul still lingered around!
Zhao Anan and Mu Qings wedding had been a big mess. Was it his and Zheng Luns turn now?
How many backup ns did she have when she was alive?
Zheng Jing was so nervous that he could not breathe. He was so afraid that yang Muyan would attack Zheng Lun.
Even if yang Muyan was already dead, even if she had used someone else to hurt Zheng Lun, Zheng Lun was so innocent that she would definitely die.
After a long while, Zheng Jings nk mind started to work again. He said in a hoarse voice,Could it be ... That the person who poisoned Lun was Gu qianyue?
Mu Qing wasnt sure. He wasnt good at such things either. Those who were good at scheming were people with high intelligence, such as Jing Yichen.
He smiled bitterly.Jing, Im not sure about that. But judging from the ingredients of the two drugs, Gu qianyue must be rted to yang Muyan. Even if he wasnt the one who poisoned her first, he must be up to no good. Youd better look for master Jing. Hes way better at analyzing this kind of thing than us!
Okay, Ill go find master Jing! Zheng Jing said decisively. Then he asked in a trembling voice,Then, is Lun ... Okay?
Because of Zhao Anan, Zheng Jing had a deep understanding of cancer. It was almost incurable. If it was stomach cancer, one could live for another ten or twenty years after removing the lesion in the early stage. But throat cancer ...
It was almost certain death!
If that was the case, killing Gu qianyue wouldnt dispel the anger and hatred in Zheng Jings heart.
I cant tell Luns condition now. Take her to family MUs Hospital tomorrow and ask my cousin to give her a full body examination. If she is poisoned for a short time and the amount of toxins is low, we can still save her now. But if the amount of toxins is too great, youd better take Lun to Germany immediately!
Zheng Jing couldnt stop panicking.
Hearing Mu Qings words, Zheng qinan clenched his fists tightly. If anything happened to Zheng Lun, he and PEI Xinhua would both suffer the heaviest blow!
He took a deep breath and turned on the speaker.Mu Qing, Lun doesnt have any special symptoms yet. She doesnt look much different from usual. She must have been poisoned by food.
He thought for a while and then described his judgment as objectively as possible so that Mu Qing could make the most urate judgment.
However, the content of the food should not be high. The poisoner was very careful. Sometimes, the snacks were poisonous, and sometimes, they were non-toxic. Your aunt PEI had eaten those snacks, but she ate very little. Most of them were eaten by Lun and Gu qianyue. Or is there an antidote to this poison?
Mu Qing was quite familiar with Zheng qinan. He knew that Zheng qinan was a cautious and logical person. After hearing what he had to say, Mu Qing had some doubts.
No, some poisons can be cured, but for this kind of chronic carcinogen, there is no antidote at all. If the poisoned person has been eating it for a long time, his cells will change. If Gu qianyue also ate those desserts, and he is the one who poisoned them, he should be in a worse condition than Lun.
As Mu Qing was speaking, an idea suddenly came to his mind. Uncle Zheng, could it be Mrs. Gu who made the desserts instead of Gu qianyue who poisoned them?
I cant say for sure whether Mrs. Gu was involved in the poisoning, Zheng qinan said with certainty.But Im sure that Gu qianyue is one of the culprits. Jing tested him today, and he has already given himself away.
Mu Qing had no clue about theplicated and confusing situation. He was good at surgery, but he was not good at analyzing peoples minds and the case.
However, after hearing what Zheng qinan said, he had a general assessment of Zheng Luns physical condition.
Uncle Zheng, if Auntie PEI doesnt eat many snacks, and if the snacks are sometimes poisonous and sometimes not, then Auntie PEI will definitely be fine. Just dont eat them in the future. As for Lun, since she is fine now, she should be in a good condition. Dont worry.
Mu Qing tried to sound as rxed as possible, in case Zheng qinan and Zheng Jinghao were worried.
The reason why the anchovy died so quickly was that fish are much more sensitive to this poison than humans. They were small, had poor metabolic capacity, and were more delicate, so they died after eating a little bit of crumbs. Its a good thing that Lun doesnt even have any symptoms of coughing!
The professional doctorsfort worked. Both Zheng qinan and Zheng Jing were slightly relieved.
Fortunately, they had found out about it early. If they had found itter, Zheng Lun would have been in real danger.
Speaking of which, the fish that Zheng Jing had given to Zheng Lun had saved her life. Otherwise, they would have taken a long time to find out that the antidote was poisoned.
Gu qianyue was so careful that he would eat all the desserts he brought to the Zheng family. He wouldnt leave any evidence behind. Even if they wanted to find out, they wouldnt be able to do any tests.
Zheng Jing was finally relieved and not so panicked anymore. He said gratefully,Good brother, its all thanks to you! I have a few forensic doctors here who cant find out what kind of poison it is. When youe back, lets go for a drink! Hows Anan? when can she be discharged?
Chapter 832: Severe poisoning
Chapter 832: Severe poisoning
Mu Qing seemed to be in high spirits. "She''s recovering very well, and my n and medicine are very effective! At present, the cancer cells have been reduced a lot. It is estimated that after another treatment, he will be able to return to his previous state!"
"Oh, really? This is great!"
Zheng Jing was genuinely happy for Mu Qing. He was touched by Mu Qing''s excited tone and became very excited.
"Lun and I will wait for you toe back!"
"Haha, that''s great. When are you guys going to have your wedding? I''m taking an ''an to the wedding! Master Jing''s son is already so big. You and Lun have to have a baby soon. It would be best if you have a daughter who can marry a genius like Jing Rui. Then you will have nothing to worry about!"
"Uh ... This ..."
Zheng Jing turned to look at his father and saw that he looked like he was going to eat someone up. He said immediately,"Well, I still have things to do, so I won''t talk about it anymore!"
Zheng Jing hung up the phone with a "bang." Mu Qing was stunned for a while before he realized that he had said something wrong. No, he was not wrong, but ... He had forgotten that Zheng qinan was beside Zheng Jing.
In front of his father, he asked his daughter to give birth to his son''s child. This matter was really attracting hatred!
"You''re quite capable, telling everyone that you''re lusting after your sister. Are you afraid that your sister''s reputation will be too good?"
Zheng qinan''s face turned pale with anger!
Mu Qing didn''t mean any harm, but his words were too mean.
If others knew about it, how could Zheng Lun survive?
He even wanted to attend the wedding and ask Zheng Lun to give birth to Zheng Jing''s child! If he had not asked Mu Qing to identify the poison and owed him a favor, Zheng qinan would have lost his temper on the spot.
"No, no, no, dad, you''ve misunderstood! I didn''t say anything in front of Mu Qing. He was just guessing. You know that''s his personality, he likes to joke around, but he''s just saying it in front of me, he definitely won''t spread it!"
"Hmph! This had better be the case! I don''t have time to talk to you about this. Hurry up and take your sister to the hospital for a check! Oh, right, bring your mother too. She has also eaten that desserts from that Gu guy!"
"Okay, okay, okay. I''ll go home now and take them to the hospital!"
Zheng Jing was greatly relieved that Zheng qinan didn''t mind. He picked up his car keys and walked out.
It was gettingte, and Gu qianyue had probably left. She could take her mother and sister to the hospital for a check-up without him.
When Zheng Jing arrived at family MU''s Hospital with PEI Xinhua and Zheng Lun, it was already dark. The Zheng family was far away from family MU''s Hospital and there was a traffic jam on the way. Mu Tong had already gotten off work when they arrived at the hospital.
Zheng Jing shamelessly called Mu Tong, who was at home with his wife and children, to the hospital and asked him to check Zheng Lun.
As a doctor, Mu Tong had long been used to all kinds of emergencies, and sudden overtime often happened. Therefore, he deliberately bought a house next to family MU''s Hospital so that it would be easy for him to go to work and get there as fast as possible if there was an emergency.
Zheng Lun and PEI Xinhua were dragged to the hospital by Zheng Jing. They had no idea what had happened. They came to the hospital without saying anything because of their trust in Zheng Jing.
Apanied by Zheng Jing, the two of them did blood tests, electrocardiograms and other tests. Then they showed the report to Mu Tong.
Mu Tong only took a nce and said with a smile,"Auntie PEI is fine, just go back and drink more water and eat more fruits!"
PEI Xinhua was not worried about herself at all. She was only worried about Zheng Lun!
Zheng Jing would not have taken them to the hospital in such a hurry if it were not for Zheng Lun''s health. She didn''t think that there was anything wrong with her body, but she thought that it must be Zheng Lun. But no matter how she asked, Zheng Jing wouldn''t tell her anything. She was so worried!
Zheng Jing also guessed that PEI Xinhua was probably fine, because she usually didn''t want to eat those delicate desserts brought by Gu qianyue, and had left most of them to Zheng Lun. PEI Xinhua ate a little bit of the cakes when Zheng Lun said she didn''t like them the day before.
Now that he heard Mu Tong say that PEI Xinhua was fine, he waspletely at ease.
"Doctor mu, where''s my sister?"
"Yes, how is Lun?" PEI Xinhua also asked anxiously.
Mu Tong read Zheng Lun''s medical report carefully. He didn''t answer Zheng Jing and PEI Xinhua directly, because Zheng Lun''s condition was quite serious and he wanted to confirm it before he answered them.
But he still said to Zheng Lun with a smile,"Come, sit down. I''ll take your pulse."
Zheng Lun knew Mu Tong. Mu Tong was chubby, smiling and friendly. She didn''t reject the opposite sex as she usually did. She sat opposite to Mu Tong obediently and extended her arm to him.
Mu Tong took a very long time to feel the pulse. Although he was still smiling, his forehead was already covered in fine beads of sweat. It was obvious that this kind of feeling was very exhausting for him.
After he finished taking her pulse, the smile on his face gradually disappeared. He said directly,""Arrange for him to be hospitalized first. Moreover, he had been poisoned for more than two months. It would be more painful and difficult to remove the poison. The poison in her body has already reached a critical value. If you hade anyter, theplications would have been very serious. Even if youe here today and treat Lun right away, I''m afraid that her body will have some abnormal reactions in two days. Lun, don''t you feel thirsty these days? Did you drink more water than you usually do?"
Zheng Lun hesitated for a while and said with uncertainty,"I think so, but it''s not too different. I didn''t pay much attention to it."
Ordinary people wouldn''t notice how much water they drank in a day. But Zheng Lun would drink a big cup of honey water every day even if she wasn''t thirsty. PEI Xinhua would also prepare a lot of fruits for her. She didn''t feel thirsty after eating them, so she really didn''t feel much change.
However, did Mu Tong mean that she had been poisoned? And it was very serious!
How could this be possible?
Zheng Lun was very shocked. How could she be poisoned?
Could it be that her Xiaoyu died today because he was poisoned?
This was too terrifying!
She looked at Zheng Jing helplessly. The helplessness and fear in her eyes made Zheng Jing''s heart ache.
Luckily, he had already expected what would happen to Zheng Lun. She was lucky that Mu Tong didn''t tell her that she had throat cancer. Severe poisoning was already a very light thing for Zheng Lun.
Because at least she could save her life!

PEI Xinhua couldnt believe it. Her whole body was trembling, and her lips were white.Doctor mu, you ... Youre not mistaken, right? How could my daughter ... Be poisoned?
Zheng Luns food and clothes were all taken care of by her. Her daughter had been staying at home every day recently. If she was poisoned, she must have been poisoned at home. But how could she let her daughter be poisoned?
Mu Tong was often questioned by the family members of his patients, and he was already used to it. He would not be angry because others doubted his diagnosis. Moreover, he could actually understand PEI Xinhuas current feelings. He had a daughter of his own, and as parents, he would never want anything to happen to his child.
Aunt PEI, Im not mistaken. You and Lun Lun are both suffering from food poisoning. But your symptoms are mild and there are few toxins in your body, so you dont need any treatment. You can recover with your own immune system and metabolic capacity. But not Lun. She has been poisoned for too long and must be hospitalized.
PEI Xinhua staggered and almost fell.
Mom, dont worry. Lun will be fine! Zheng Jing held her immediately.
Zheng Lun also got up from the chair and held PEI Xinhuas arm. She called her gently,Mom, Im fine now, arent I? the doctor can definitely cure my poisoning, right, doctor mu?
Mu Tong hesitated for a moment, but he still nodded.It shouldnt be a big problem, but the premise is that you cant be infected with the poison again. Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious. Even if my grandfather came, Im afraid he wouldnt be able to do anything.
Zheng Lun had been poisoned for a long time and Mu Tong was really worried that she would eat poisoned food again. If that happened, she would be beyond saving!
Therefore, he didnt dare to be too confident, in case he couldnt cure Zheng Lun and he couldnt answer to the Zheng family.
PEI Xinhua had no idea how her daughter was poisoned. She wanted to say that she would never let her daughter be poisoned again, but she did not have the confidence to do so!
She hugged Zheng Lun and cried so hard that her eyes turned red.Lun, its all moms fault!
In fact, Zheng Lun was also very scared, because she had been poisoned by yang Muyan once and she had already coughed up blood. This time, it seemed to be more serious than thest time. She was also very nervous.
However, she still hugged PEI Xinhua tightly and wiped her tears.No, mom, youre the best mom in the world!
Zheng Jing held both of them in his arms andforted the two most important women in his life.It will be fine. Dont be afraid. My father and I will find out. Lun will not be poisoned anymore. She will be fine.
Mu Tong looked at the three of them hugging each other as if the sky was about to copse. He felt that he had gone a little too far just now. Should he have told the truth?
Sigh, if only Mu Qing was here, he would have handled this kind of thing much better than him.
But he really thought that Zheng Luns poisoning was very tricky. Although Zheng Lun looked fine now, she would be in a lot of pain when the poison broke out in a few days. Not only would she feel a burning pain in her mouth, but her gums would also shrink, and her throat would fester. It would be useless no matter how many antibiotics she took. By then, not only would she not be able to speak, but even eating would be a problem. If she could not make it, she would really die.
He didnt dare to tell anyone about these symptoms!
Forget it, lets not talk about it now. PEI Xinhua couldnt take it anymore. Let Zheng Lun stay in the hospital first, and then he would tell Zheng Jing the rest.
At least Zheng Jing looked the calmest of them all. He should be able to handle it.
That night, Zheng Lun was admitted to the hospital for treatment.
Zheng qinan came to the hospital soon after he was done with the investigation of Gu qianyue. He told PEI Xinhua and Zheng Lun everything.
The two of them were in disbelief!
It was Gu qianyue!
He was too vicious!
Until the next morning, PEI Xinhua still could not ept this fact.
She was the one who introduced Gu qianyue to Zheng Lun. She knew Gu qianyues parents, who had known each other for five or six years. Gu qianyues parents came from an intellectual family.
PEI Xinhua had never thought that Gu qianyue would poison Zheng Lun!
She didnt sleep the whole night with Zheng Lun in her arms. They had adopted Zheng Lun and raised her up. She would never forgive herself if she was killed by others.
She had already lost a daughter and could not bear the pain of losing her daughter again.
Zheng Lun had started to feel ufortable today. Her throat was very ufortable and even her teeth were in pain.
Mu Tong had already told her that the drug intervention treatment would cause the poison in her body to break out in advance, and then it would be slowly expelled from her body, so it was normal to feel ufortable. She needed to endure it.
She endured the difort in her body andforted PEI Xinhua with a smile.Mom, dont be sad. Doctor mu said that my poison can be cured, but it will take a long time. You have to rest well and take care of yourself. Im sick now and I still need you to take care of me. If you fall sick too, who will take care of me?
PEI Xinhua burst into tears. She held Zheng Lun in her arms and said,Lun, I am so sorry. If I didnt force you to be with that bastard, you wouldnt have been poisoned! I must have been blind to introduce you to such a pervert!
Zheng Lun quickly wiped away PEI Xinhuas tears. Only she knew how much PEI Xinhua loved her. She was so anxious to introduce her to a man just to make her happy.
She had good intentions. If she had known that there was something wrong with Gu qianyue, her mother would not have introduced him to her.
PEI Xinhua had scolded Gu qianyue a thousand timesst night. If Zheng qinan and Zheng Jing had not stopped her, she would have run to the Gu family and beat Gu qianyue to death!
Alright, mom, dont me yourself anymore. Your daughters heart will also ache when she sees you like this! Its all Gu qianyues fault. I thought he was my good ssmate, but hes so bad!
Zheng Lun hugged PEI Xinhuas arm and said in a soft and sweet voice, which could melt peoples hearts.
Zheng Lun was born with the ability to act coquettishly. She didnt need to do it on purpose. She just needed to show her most delicate side and the others would not be able to resist.
PEI Xinhua caressed her daughters soft long hair affectionately. She was happy and sad at the same time.
Her daughter was so sensible. She was afraid that she would me herself, so she tried tofort her. She had really grown up!
Such a beautiful, gentle, and understanding daughter, but her marriage was not going well. What should she do?

Trantor: 549690339
Zheng Jing bought breakfast and went into the ward. He gave PEI Xinhua the food and then took care of Zheng Lun.
Both of Zheng Luns hands were injected with needles and she was also injected with fluid to detoxify. She couldnt eat by herself.
Zheng Jing didnt eat it himself, but picked out Zheng Luns favorite food and fed her gently.
Be careful, Lun Lun. It might burn your mouth.
Oh, its okay, brother. Its not hot anymore. The pumpkin congee you bought is delicious and sweet!
Silly girl, I specially asked the boss for rock sugar and put a few in it. Of course its sweet.
No wonder! You and mom both know that I like sweet congee, but howe I didnt notice if brother likes sweet congee?
Zheng Jingughed and said gently, Im fine with anything. It doesnt make a difference to me. Youre the only one whos picky. Other than rock sugar, nothing else is fine with you.
Eh, Im so picky with my words. Isnt it because you and mom spoiled me? You cant me me for this, you have to!
PEI Xinhua sat by the side, watching the beautiful couple talking intimately under the morning sun. For the first time, some kind of determination in her heart wavered.
Zheng Jing was the only one who would take care of Zheng Lun like this.
And with Zheng Luns personality, she couldnt be so close and lively with other men of the opposite sex. She rejected all men except her father and brother.
She was meticulous, sensitive, and timid. If a man looked at her for more than a second, she would feel that he was up to no good and did not like to have contact with the opposite sex at all.
She had thought that Gu qianyue might be able to get into her heart, but who knew that Gu qianyue was actually a wolf in sheeps clothing. He pretended to be so nice and took care of Zheng Lun, but he was actually cruel and merciless and wanted to kill Zheng Lun.
PEI Xinhua had been tricked this time, and she did not dare to trust anyone at will!
The only person she could trust was her own son!
PEI Xinhua would not feel at ease if she handed Zheng Lun over to any man. Zheng Lun was too innocent. She had suffered in her childhood and had never suffered since she joined the Zheng family.
Besides, Zheng Lun was not the kind of girl who would grow up immediately after suffering. She would probably die in the Tribtion instead of bing stronger.
If she married a man who didnt treat her well, she would quickly wither and die, instead of growing up in such bad conditions.
If Zheng Jing had not found her that year, she would have died begging. She would not have adapted to her role so quickly like other children, learning to act pitiful and then use her advantage to cheat and beg.
Zheng Lun wouldnt lie, and she wasnt scheming. In fact, PEI Xinhua had always been worried about her getting married.
But if Zheng Lun were to marry Zheng Jing, she would not be able to ept it and others would gossip about it.
PEI Xinhua ate her breakfast and looked at the interaction and warmth between her son and daughter. She felt as if her heart was broken.
However, the next day, PEI Xinhua had no time to care about the love affairs between her son and daughter, because the poison in Zheng Luns body hadpletely broken out.
In fact, Zheng Lun had been woken up by the pain at midnight.
PEI Xinhua was sleeping next to Zheng Lun. As soon as her daughter woke up, she woke up and saw Zheng Lun vomiting blood.
She was so scared that her face turned pale, and her screams echoed through the entire hospital building.
Zheng Jing and Zheng qinan were apanying her in the hospital, but they were sleeping in the ward next door. Hearing PEI Xinhuas scream, they rushed to Zheng Luns ward without even putting on their shoes.
The two men, who had been through a lot, turned pale and panicked when they saw Zheng Lun spit out blood.
How much blood could there be in the body?
The blood that Zheng Lun had vomited had stained the white bed sheet and quilt red, which was very scary.
Zheng Jing called Mu Tong with trembling fingers. Mu Tong was called over at two in the morning.
After Mu Tong had done the acupuncture for Zheng Lun, she had stopped vomiting blood, but the pain in her mouth and throat was driving her crazy!
Zheng Lun didnt sleep the whole night. She still couldnt fall asleep the next evening.
Gu qianyues mixed poison| The medicine was a slow-acting poison, and it could stay in the body for more than six months. When it didnt break out, the poisoned person wouldnt have any abnormalities, but once it broke out, it would be devastating.
The longer the incubation period, the more serious the outbreak would be.
The poison had been in Zheng Luns body for two months. It could have been in her body for a longer time, but Mu Tong was afraid that it would be more difficult to cure her as time went on, so he made the poison break out in advance with some drugs.
As a result of the poison, Zheng Luns entire oral and throat system was destroyed.
Her gums were atrophied, and her teeth were a little loose, but this was only the lightest of the symptoms.
The worst part was that her tongue and throat had started to fester and bleed. Not only was she unable to eat, but even speaking had be a problem.
The anesthetic and painkiller couldnt be injected inrge amounts, so they could only reduce Zheng Luns pain to a certain extent. Zheng Lun had to bear more pain herself.
Zheng Lun was lying on the bed, with PEI Xinhua, Zheng qinan and Zheng Jing by her side.
She wanted to tell them that they didnt need to guard her and that they should rest and eat something, but she didnt dare to move her tongue and her throat couldnt make any sound!
She had only moved slightly, but her mouth started to bleed!
The pain was like being pricked by needles, and her tears fell uncontrobly.
It was too painful!
Zheng Lun felt that her consciousness was getting blurry. She even wished that she could just die so that she would not have to suffer this endless pain anymore.
However, she was reluctant to die.
She couldnt bear to leave her parents who had raised her, and she couldnt bear to leave Zheng Jing.
If she were to die, her parents and brother would be sad.
They hadnt eaten or slept for the whole day. They had all been by her side.
Her mothers eyes were already swollen like peaches from crying. In just a short day, her head had grown a lot of white hair!
Zheng qinan looked as if he had aged ten years. He had never shed a tear before, but when he saw her, he could not help but cry!
Zheng Jings handsome face was full of pain and heartache. His eyes were red and he would have cried out if he had not been trying his best to hold it in.
Zheng Lun had lost all her strength because of the pain. She wanted to smile at the three of them, but found that she couldnt do it.
Chapter 835
Chapter 835: The poison takes effect (3)
Trantor: 549690339
It was too painful!
She couldnt make any expression, especially a smile. It would affect the corners of her lips and make her festered lips bleed.
Zheng Lun gritted her teeth in pain. But she used too much force and her fragile gums started to bleed.
The smell of blood spread in her mouth.
There was blood at the corner of her mouth. PEI Xinhua cried and wiped it off for her. She said in a hoarse voice,Lun, just bear with it, just bear with it ...
She could only say this one sentence and could not continue.
Zheng Lun had never suffered like this!
She was a delicate woman like a flower and her body had always been healthy. Other than the asional cold and fever, she had never been seriously ill!
Now, in just two days, she had been tortured to the point of losing weight. Her originally Jade-like skin had lost its luster and became as pale as paper.
No one would be able to stand the symptoms of bleeding in their mouth and throat!
She was now using one hand to detoxify and reduce the inmmation, while the other hand was inserted into a blood vessel. Because she had lost too much blood, she could not survive without a blood transfusion.
PEI Xinhuas heart ached so much that she wished she could take the me for her daughter!
After she finished wiping the blood off Zheng Luns face, she grabbed Zheng qinans arm and said through gritted teeth, Qinan, you cant let Gu qianyue die so easily. Youd better cut him into pieces and make him suffer ten thousand times more than Lun!
Zheng qinan patted his wifes shoulder and said in a low and firm voice,Dont worry. I will not let him go. Luns pain will not be in vain!
PEI Xinhua nodded while crying and said with hatred,He still has the face to call me today! He asked me why I wasnt at home and where Lun was. I almost couldnt help but give him a good scolding!
Then how did you answer him?
Im just following what you told me. Lun went to Germany to see her sick friend. He knows about Zhao Anans illness. I dont think he has any suspicions. He just thinks that Lun went there in a hurry.
Well, thats good. The matter hasnt been investigated clearly, so we cant alert the enemy. We still dont know why Gu qianyue poisoned Lun, and we dont know if the Gu family or other people are involved in it. Its not the right time for us to fall out. We have to find the real mastermind. Otherwise, after we kill Gu qianyue, there might be others who will harm Lun.
PEI Xinhua wasnt an impulsive person. She also knew that she couldnt fall out with Gu qianyue now. They didnt have any evidence to prove that Gu qianyue was the one who poisoned her.
I know, so I endured it!
PEI Xinhua hated Gu qianyue to death now. She also hated herself. If she had been more careful, she would not have allowed this kind of person to go on blind dates with her daughter ande to her house every day to poison Zheng Lun.
Its all my fault. I invited the wolf into the house. If it werent for me, Lun would not have suffered so much! Its all my fault, Im sorry!
PEI Xinhua held Zheng Luns cold hands carefully and couldnt help crying.
Zheng Lun wanted tofort her, but she couldnt speak or even move.
She pinched PEI Xinhuas hand gently, indicating that she should not me herself.
Tears were also falling from her eyes, both in pain and sadness.
Zheng Jing put his arm around PEI Xinhuas shoulder and said softly,Mom, its not your fault. Gu qianyue hid it too well. He is such a quiet and delicate man who looks as timid as Lun and doesnt like to talk. It will be fine. We will avenge Lun!
Gu qianyue, you deserve to die! I hope you dont die in an ident these days, otherwise, no one will pay for Luns suffering!
Zheng Jing had already asked Jing Yichen for help in investigating Gu qianyue.
Otherwise, by the time the Zheng family got to the bottom of the matter, Gu qianyue might have already run away.
Zheng Jing was very suspicious of the rtionship between Gu qianyue and yang Muyan, as yang Muyan had already poisoned Zheng Lun once.
It was a coincidence that Zheng Lun was poisoned at the same time when Gu qianyue first met her.
The house had been checked and there were no suspicious items or food. Zheng Jing was very confused at that time because there was nothing suspicious in the house, but Zheng Lun had been poisoned!
Although the poison was different from thest one, Mu Qing said it was an upgraded version, with more explosive power and toxicity.
The poison used by Gu qianyue might have been improved by yang Muyan and given to him.
Now that yang Muyan was dead, Gu qianyue still didnt give up on killing Zheng Lun. Was it because of his grudge against Zheng Lun or was he just following yang Muyans order?
Or was he not the only one involved in this? was there someone else behind him?
If they couldnt catch all of them this time, Zheng Lun would be in danger in the future.
No, what if they did something else after the poison failed to kill Zheng Lun?
He needed to borrow some men from Jing Yichen to protect Zheng Lun.
Zheng Jing got up and walked out of the ward. He started to call Jing Yichen.
Master Jing, I may need a few people to protect Lun. I am afraid that yang Muyan has other tricks up her sleeve.
Zheng Jing had always felt that yang Muyan had no grudge against Zheng Lun. They had never met before and she didnt have a strong desire to kill Zheng Lun. Otherwise, she wouldnt have poisoned Zheng Lun when she had poisoned Shangguan ning and the other two.
But now, he wasnt sure.
Yang Muyan was a person who didnt y by the rules. She killed people as she pleased, regardless of the grudges.
Ji Bos parents had no enmity with yang Muyan, but they were still killed by her one after another.
Gu qianyue didnt seem to hate Zheng Lun. Zheng Lun even treated him as a good friend and would treat him with a smile every time. But in the end, she was almost killed by him!
So Zheng Jing was scared.
He would rather do something useless than let anything happen to Zheng Lun.
Hearing Zheng Jings request, Jing Yichen agreed without hesitation.
Ill give you 20 people first. If its not enough, Ill add more.
Twenty men was not a small number, because Jing Yichens men were all elites. It might be a bit exaggerated to say that one man could fight against a hundred men, but ten men would not be a match for any one of them.
Usually, there were only ten people around Shangguan ning to protect her.
With these 20 people, Zheng Luns safety was guaranteed.
Zheng Jing felt grateful, but said nothing. He knew that Jing Yichen never cared about the formalities. He liked to be direct.
Master Jing, hows the investigation on Gu qianyue going?
Chapter 836: The Gu family
Chapter 836: The Gu family
"We''re still investigating. I''ll let you know if there''s any concrete information. It was certain that there was a problem with his identity, but it would take time to find out the details. He was very cautious and did things without leaving any evidence behind. He liked to destroy all evidence. Moreover, he usually lived in seclusion and did not interact much with others. He did not have any friends. Although he''s a teacher at school now, he often ims that he''s sick and doesn''t go to school often. "
Jing Yichen''s voice was calm and emotionless.
In fact, he was very concerned about Gu qianyue''s case, and he was very efficient.
After all, Zheng Lun was the victim. Not only was Zheng Jing in great pain, but Shangguan ning also wanted to go to the hospital to see her several times when she learned that Zheng Lun had been poisoned.
She would have gone to the hospital if she didn''t know that Zheng Lun was in a bad condition and couldn''t talk or move.
"One of the important clues that I have found is that in the past ten years, there has only been one person who has been close to him, Zheng Lun."
"Only Lun Lun?" Zheng Jing was surprised.
The whole family knew that Gu qianyue was not good at socializing. But Zheng Jing had not expected that Gu qianyue had not made any friends in the past ten years.
It was very strange that he suddenly got close to Zheng Lun.
"Also, no poison has been found in his house so far, so it''s very likely that someone has delivered the poison to him regrly. However, we haven''t found the person who has delivered the poison yet. We''ll have to wait for another two days to see."
Zheng Jing''s heart skipped a beat. There was indeed an aplice!
Then ... Did Gu qianyue''s parents get involved in this?"
Jing Yichen gave him an affirmative answer."No, I didn ''t,"
"No?" Zheng Jing couldn''t believe it. "How could this be? Those desserts were made by Gu qianyue''s mother!"
"Gu qianyue''s mother, Wu Zi, is forty-nine years old. She is a professor at University of X and has a good reputation in the school. Zhao Anan''s teaching record shows that she is not very strict but soft-hearted. Very few students fail her courses. She also sponsorates students who have a hard time in their sses, so she is very popr with the students."
"Gu qianyue''s father, Gu Yingjie, is 51 years old this year. He is also a professor at University of X. Like Wu Zi, he is not strict. He likes to help poor students. They have a good rtionship and are very popr. They have no record of mistreating students or killing animals. The psychological test organized by the school every year is normal and has no distorted tendencies. "
Zheng Jing understood what Jing Yichen meant. This couple were both normal people and had no intention of killing.
"In addition, I have installed a listening device in the Gu family. There is no problem with the conversation between Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi. I will ask Tiger to send you the recordingter. You can listen to it yourself."
It was not easy to believe a person''s character and character judgment. The most powerful evidence was solid evidence, and the recording was one of the most straightforward pieces of evidence.
"Good! That''s great!"
Zheng Jing was a little excited. It was great to have a recording!
No one knew how Jing Yichen did it, but it was very difficult to nt a bug in the Gu family''s house, because Gu qianyue never went out except for going to the Zheng family. Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi also stayed at home these days because they had no sses.
The three of them were at home, but they could still go in and nt a bug. It was really amazing!
Zheng Jing''s own men could not do that, otherwise he would have gotten some evidence.
"Gu qianyue isn''t teaching at University of X, but at A third-ss art school in city A. With his academic qualifications and his parents ''abilities, it''s totally possible for him to teach at University of X. "He chose an art school because the management of an art school is much looser than that of University X. Even if he doesn''t go to ss, it doesn''t matter. He will still retain his teaching qualifications."
Jing Yichen''s men had already sent back all the information they had found, but because of the short time, they had only found the surface.
He was using his own logical thinking to judge Gu qianyue''s family.
"Gu qianyue has a serious social disorder and is obviously autistic. He can''t be a teacher. He must have had some special experiences when he was a child. Otherwise, with Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi''s personalities and abilities, Gu qianyue would not have developed autism and perverts. However, the information we have so far is limited, and we can''t find out what he had experienced during his childhood. "
Zheng Jing felt that it was not easy for Jing Yichen to find out so many things in such a short time.
His own people were also investigating Gu qianyue, but they only found the good side of Gu qianyue. There was no trace of the bad side of him at all!
But when Jing Yichen mentioned Gu qianyue''s childhood, Zheng Jing was reminded of the time when he was Zheng Lun''s ssmate.
"Master Jing, Gu qianyue used to be in the same ss as my sister several times. ording to my sister, he had no friends either, but he was willing to be friends with Lun. Do you think he hated my sister at that time?"
"Not necessarily."
Jing Yichen didn''t make a judgment.
What he had just made was based on the information he had gathered. With his ability, he could make such a deduction 99% of the time. But Zheng Jing''s guess was just a guess without any solid proof.
"I''ll give you an answer in two days. "
Jing Yichen hung up the phone as soon as he finished speaking.
He usually only needed three days to check things, except for those that were particrly difficult andplicated.
Although Gu qianyue''s problem was a little tricky, it was not a difficult thing for Jing Yichen.
After hanging up the phone, Zheng Jing received an e-mail from Tiger.
The attachment of the email was a recording.
He listened to it carefully and then yed it for his parents and Zheng Lun in the ward.
After PEI Xinhua heard this, the depression in her heart dissipated a little.
The recording was full of Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi''s daily conversations, but they had mentioned Zheng Lun many times. They were concerned about Zheng Lun and Gu qianyue''s marriage. Apparently, they were looking forward to Zheng Lun''s marriage and their son''s wedding.
They couldn''t be the ones who poisoned him.
Otherwise, he wouldn''t have been so expectant and wouldn''t have wanted Zheng Lun to marry into the family.
PEI Xinhua felt that this at least proved that she had no problem befriending Wu Zi. The blind date should have been a coincidence, and not deliberately arranged by Wu Zi.
But since the blind date was a coincidence, Gu qianyue and Zheng Lun''s meeting was also a coincidence. Why would he want to hurt Zheng Lun?
Zheng Lun didn''t think too much about it. She just had a good impression of Gu qianyue''s parents. Every time she saw Gu qianyue, she would have a strange feeling. Although it was very faint, it was real. But when she saw Gu qianyue''s parents, she didn''t have the same strange feeling.
Chapter 837-living is worse than death
Chapter 837-living is worse than death
This feeling was just a girl''s sharp intuition. There was no solid proof, so Zheng Lun had never said anything about it.
Many people she had met didn''t give her a bad feeling. So far, Gu qianyue was the only one who gave her a creepy feeling.
However, she still felt that she was overthinking it.
Gu qianyue had always been very nice to her. He took good care of her and respected her wishes. He had never crossed the line.
Moreover, he looked very gentle and refined. He wore a pair of sses, looked refined, and spoke very gently. He also liked flowers and nts, small animals, and children. Who would have thought that such a person was actually an executioner!
All three members of the Gu family were university teachers and were very cultured. Zheng Lun had always thought that children from such families must be innocent and not scheming.
It seemed that her social experience was still too shallow, and she could not see through people''s hearts!
Zheng Lun didn''t have much energy to think about anything else at this moment. The pain in her throat was almost unbearable. If the nurse didn''t inject painkiller into her every two hours, she would have died from the pain.
It was a pity that she couldn''t take too much painkillers either because the side effects were too great. If she kept taking the painkillers, she wouldn''t be able to feel the pain in her mouth, and it would be easier for her mouth to bleed if she wasn''t careful.
After Zheng qinan had listened to the recording and heard what Zheng Jing had said about Jing Yichen''s analysis, he also believed that Gu qianyue''s parents had no idea about the poisoning.
Fortunately, it was Gu qianyue who did all the evil things, not his whole family. There was a big difference between killing Gu qianyue and killing the Gu family.
There was a way to exin Gu qianyue''s death, but it would cause a great disturbance if his family was killed.
Unless he had strong evidence, he could only wait to be fired and go to prison!
Even so, it was still not easy to deal with. Gu qianyue''s parents only had one son, and they had spoiled him since he was a child. He had finallye of age and was about to start a family. If he died, Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi would not be able to ept it.
Just like his son. If Zheng Jing made a big mistake one day, he would protect Zheng Jing with all his might, even if he had to be the enemy of everyone.
Gu qianyue had to die, but other things had to be dealt with well.
The four of them couldn''t bear it. Their bodies couldn''t take it. Gu qianyue wouldn''t even need to do anything. They would fall one by one.
"Jing, your mother and I are getting old. We will take a rest first ande back in two hours. You can take a rest and we will take turns to take care of Lun. Lun hasn''t slept for a day and a night. If she can''t sleep, you can ask Mu Tong if he can give Lun general anesthesia and let her sleep. "
Zheng qinan''s heart ached at the sight of Zheng Lun in pain. He would rather have some after-effects of the anesthesia than to let Zheng Lun suffer less.
Zheng Jing and Zheng qinan had the same idea.
He didn''t want Zheng Lun to be in so much pain. General anesthesia might have some side effects on her body, but it was better than Zheng Lun suffering.
"Alright, I''ll talk to Mu Tong. Dad, mom, you guys go and sleep for a while."
PEI Xinhua didn''t want to leave. She wanted to apany her daughter, but Zheng qinan pulled her away."Have a good rest. You can only take care of Lun when you are well-rested!"
Zheng Jing called Mu Tong in soon. But Mu Tong disagreed when he heard that Zheng Lun was to be anesthetized."No, it''s too risky!"
Zheng Jing didn''t know much about anesthesia. He just wanted to ease Zheng Lun''s pain.
"Why not? Don''t many patients use general anesthesia when they undergo major surgery?"
Mu Tong shook his head sternly,"that''s two different things!" Moreover, there were risks even if anesthesia was used during the surgery. With your sister''s current condition, she can''t be given general anesthesia, or there''s a possibility that she won''t wake up again!"
"What?"
Zheng Jing''s face turned pale. Was anesthesia that dangerous?
"Could it be that my sister has no choice but to endure this kind of pain?"
Mu Tong nodded helplessly."Yes, this is the best solution. Not only that, if she falls asleep, you must wake her up. You can''t let her sleep for too long." Subconsciously, she would want to fall asleep and never wake up again, because waking up meant pain. If her consciousness is too strong, she will never wake up again. "
As a doctor, he knew Zheng Lun''s current condition very well. There was a reason why he didn''t give Zheng Lun enough anesthetic.
"Zheng Lun''s situation is verymon in many dying patients. If the patient has a strong will to live, she can survive, but if not, she will die. I''m telling you the truth, but from what I''ve observed, your sister''s will to live is very weak. She doesn''t have much of an obsession with living, so I don''t dare to give her general anesthesia. "
Mu Tong''s words made Zheng Jing break out in cold sweat.
Did Zheng Lun not care about life and death anymore?
How could she do this!
Zheng Jing tried to hold back his tears and thanked Mu Tong."Doctor mu, thank you so much. My sister''s life is in your hands! If you need any help in the future, just give me a call and I''ll be there!"
A friendly smile appeared on Mu Tong''s round face again,"What are you saying? it''s my duty as a doctor to help patients! Besides, my cousin kept saying that you''re his good brother and that I must do my best. Don''t worry, as long as I''m here, at least Lun''s life is not in danger. She will be fine after these few days. "
The two of them didn''t talk much, and Mu Tong quickly left.
Zheng Jing was guarding Zheng Lun by himself. He held her hand carefully and said in a low voice,"Lun, you must stay alive, do you hear me? I won''t allow you to die!"
Zheng Lun burst into tears when she heard his voice.
Doctor Mu Tong could actually tell that her will to live was no longer strong. She thought that she had covered it up very well, that she had tried very hard to live.
But it was really too painful, too unbearable!
She felt like she was going to die in the next moment, and every second of living was a torture!
She had difficulty breathing, and her mouth was in so much pain that it felt like it had been cut by a knife. Her throat had cracked, and she couldn''t swallow or speak at all!
Her nose was filled with the smell of blood. Blood would flow out from the corners of her lips and nose from time to time, and she needed someone to constantly wipe it for her.
She finally understood what it felt like to be bleeding from all seven apertures in the books!
A fate worse than death!
Chapter 838
Chapter 838: Chapter 838-improvement
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng Lun slowly wrote a word in his heart. It hurt.
Other than pain, she really didnt feel anything else.
Moreover, the pain was constantly intensifying. In the morning, she thought that she could still bear it, but by evening, she felt that she could not bear it anymore.
Her tongue and throat had festered under the invasion of the poison. She suspected that if it werent for the strong drug that kept her alive, she might have died the next moment, and her tongue might have festered and disappeared.
In the future, would it still grow well?
If she didnt have a tongue, she might as well be dead.
Zheng Jings heart ached as if it was being torn apart when he saw the word Zheng Lun had written on his palm.
He kissed Zheng Luns fingers gently and said in a low voice with red eyes,Lun, I know you are in pain. You have to be strong and get through it. You will be fine tomorrow! Believe in big brother!
In fact, Mu Tong had said that tomorrow would be more painful than today.
Today, it was only her mouth and throat. Tomorrow, her lungs and stomach would fester and bleed, because these two ces were the most exposed to the poison.
Tomorrow would be even more difficult to endure.
But Zheng Jing didnt dare to tell her the truth, because if he did, Zheng Lun would be in more pain and despair.
Zheng Lun didnt know the truth. But when she heard Zheng Jing say that she would be fine after today and tomorrow, her dark eyes suddenly lit up.
Was that really the case?
Thats great!
She couldnt speak, so she could only pinch Zheng Jings hand to show that she understood.
Zheng Jings heart ached. He wiped the blood off Zheng Luns lips carefully and tried to smile.Lun, you have to get well soon. I have a way to marry you. When you get better, be my wife, okay?
Wife? Can I? Was her brother lying to her?
Zheng Lun felt that the pain was relieved at this moment.
She really wanted to marry her brother!
She liked it when her brother hugged her. She liked his kisses and caresses. She was infatuated with his embrace and yearned for it.
She couldnt stand other women enjoying her brothers embrace!
Zheng Lun was so excited that she started to bleed from her nose and lips.
Zheng Jings tears finally fell uncontrobly.
His gentle, kind, and beautiful sister had been tortured by Gu qianyue to this state!
Her nose and mouth were bleeding, and even Zheng Luns eyes had blood clots. How much pain had she suffered?
Zheng Jings cold tears fell on the back of Zheng Luns hand, which made her heart skip a beat.
Her brother had always been the strongest Man. Other than when they had first met when they were young, he had never cried again.
But now, he had already cried a few times because his heart ached too much for her.
Zheng Lun wanted to get better so badly. She wanted to wipe away Zheng Jings tears and tell him how much she loved him.
She couldnt speak or move, and this was driving her crazy!
Zheng Jing wiped his tears and said softly,Lun, I didnt lie to you. I have been preparing for our future. It is just that the process is a bit difficult andplicated, so I have never told you. But you dont have to worry. I can solve everything. You just need to take good care of your body and get through these few days. Then you can be my bride!
Zheng Lun still found it hard to believe. If they got married, mom and dad would never agree, and people would gossip about her brother. It would be so difficult!
No matter what, she was still very happy when Zheng Jing said that he would marry her and make her his bride.
She had helped Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan pick out wedding dresses. Now, she could finally pick one for herself.
Zheng Lun felt that the physical pain was not so unbearable anymore.
She had hope and looked forward to the future. Her brother might be hers alone forever. He would not hold another woman to sleep!
This is great!
Zheng Lun was so happy that she cried.
However, what she didnt know was that her tears were no longer clear tears, but blood.
Zheng Jing was so upset that he wanted to kill Gu qianyue immediately. He wiped the red tears off Zheng Luns face carefully, held her hand and talked to her in a low voice to distract her.
Mu Tong had told her before that after the toxins were fully stimted, the cells in Zheng Luns body would be severely damaged, so she could bleed from any part of her body.
He also told them not to panic, and that bleeding was a good thing to a certain extent, because the poison would be expelled from the body with the blood.
But Zheng Lun might have to keep the blood transfusion going, in case she lost too much blood and went into shock.
The next day, Zheng Luns condition got worse. She also found that her tears were red when she cried. Even her vision was covered in blood.
Her brother had lied to her. Todays situation had not improved at all.
He was afraid that she wouldnt be able to get through the pain she had gone through today, right?
Yes, she really couldnt hold on any longer. She just wanted to fall asleep and never wake up to suffer this endless torture again.
The pain had numbed her, and she could no longer feel her tongue.
Her consciousness drifted in a daze. Every time she wanted to sleep, there would always be a voice calling her.
Qi Qi!
Lun Lun!
Qiqi? Lun Lun? Who were they?
Was it her?
She was forced to wake up from hera, and the boundless pain drowned her in an instant, leaving her awake for only a few seconds.
Oh, right. She was Lun and also Qiqi.
She couldnt die, she had to live!
Jing, go get doctor mu and let him check on Lun! How can we continue like this!
PEI Xinhuas face was very pale and her eyes were bloodshot. She was full of heartache and fear. She was afraid that Zheng Lun would leave them the next moment.
Zheng Jing was not any better off than PEI Xinhua, but he trusted Mu Tong more than PEI Xinhua.
Since Mu Tong had said that Zheng Lun would be fine, she would be fine.
He had already called Mu Tong over six times in the morning. He couldnt call him over anymore. Even if Mu Tong came, it would be useless.
Zheng Lun could only rely on herself to get through the current situation. They had to keep waking her up with their family love so that she wouldnt fall into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, the bleeding in Zheng Luns nose and mouth suddenly reduced.
The family of three was overjoyed!
It was finally starting to get better!
Zheng Luns body wouldnt be able to take it if the torture continued.
The medicine that Mu Tong had prescribed for Zheng Lun was very effective.
Zheng Lun also felt that the pain and the bleeding were less severe. At least, she could see no more red.
Chapter 839: A different Zheng Lun
Chapter 839: A different Zheng Lun
After Zheng Lun started to get better, Shangguan ning took Jing Rui to the hospital to see her.
Jing Yichen drove them to the hospital and talked to Zheng Jing about what he had found about Gu qianyue.
Zheng Lun''s bleeding was getting better, and the ulcers in her mouth were getting better. Under the effect of the medicine, the wounds were healing gradually.
However, the festering area was too serious. Even if it healed now, the process would be rtively slow. She still couldn''t speak, and she didn''t dare to make any big facial expressions. Otherwise, it would affect the wound and cause blood to flow and unbearable pain.
She smiled when she saw Shangguan ning. She was very happy.
She had finally made it through, and now a good friend hade to see her. It was great!
Little Jing Rui was still as cute as ever, as pretty as a doll, but he looked serious.
He was just like a smaller version of Jing Yichen!
Zheng Lun looked at the little Jing Rui. He was wearing a fitting suit with a white shirt inside, which made him look very energetic and very much like a young gentleman.
Such a child was loved by everyone. Zheng Lun''s heart softened and she even wanted to have a child like him.
Jing Rui didn''t know Zheng Lun well, but his mother had reminded him 800 times to act like they were close before she left the house. She even gave him a bouquet of flowers and asked him to give it to Zheng Lun, who had just escaped death.
Jing Rui was very displeased. His father had told him that the first time he gave flowers, he should have given them to his girlfriend. Why was he giving them to a woman who was more than 20 years older than him?
He could not suffer such a loss!
Jing Rui walked to Zheng Lun''s bed with the flowers in his arms. He put the flowers on the bedside and said in a childish voice,"Hello, Auntie. I wish you a speedy recovery! Mom bought these flowers especially for you. She hopes you''ll like them!"
Do you understand now?
The flowers were not from him, but from his mother. It had nothing to do with him!
Zheng Lun knew that Shangguan ning must have bought the flowers for her. Jing Rui was too young to buy flowers, not to mention Jing Yichen. He was such a cold man who would only buy flowers for Shangguan ning. He would not even look at anyone else.
Zheng Lun wanted to say thank you, but her throat was still burning and her tongue was in so much pain that she couldn''t even speak.
Shangguan ning knew that she wanted to express her gratitude, so she sat down beside her and said,"Alright, there''s no need to be so polite between us. You just have to take care of yourself. In a few days, when you can talk, we''ll have a good chat. You and Anan are both in the hospital now, and you''re really making me worry. I''ll go to Germany to see her in two days. You don''t know that she''s bald now, and she''s very bright. You don''t even need to be a third wheel at night!"
Zheng Lun couldn''t help but smile when she heard Shangguan ning make it sound so funny.
There was a smile in her eyes, but she felt a little ashamed in her heart.
Zhao Anan must have suffered more pain and pressure than her, but she was still optimistic and strong. She was not sad even when she lost all her hair, and she even joked about her every day.
The reason why Shangguan ning couldugh at Zhao Anan was that Zhao Anan didn''t care about other peopleughing at her. She was in a good mood.
Perhaps it was this kind of optimistic and cheerful mentality that allowed her to be reborn from the hands of death again and again!
She, on the other hand, had only suffered a little bit of torture and she was already so desperate that she felt that she might as well be dead.
He really shouldn''t have!
Zheng Lun was in a much better state of mind today. She listened to Shangguan ning and PEI Xinhua and felt their sincere concern and heartache. She couldn''t help but take a deep breath.
In the future, no matter what happened, she should be more optimistic and strong. There were so many people who always cared for her, what reason did she have to retreat?
Zheng Lun saw Jing Rui standing by the bed, staring at the infusion tube. She thought that he was very cute and obedient.
She reached out to touch Jing Rui''s head, but Jing Rui dodged her hand and stared at her unhappily.
Zheng Lun burst intoughter inside her heart. So this little guy didn''t like to be touched by others, just like his father. Could it be that this kind of thing could be inherited?
She did not try to touch Jing Rui.
Children were actually just like adults. They had their own emotions. Their inner world was also rich and colorful. Most of them were eager to be respected by adults, so they could not wait to grow up.
Zheng Lun respected Jing Rui''s wishes very much. She waved her hand at him, indicating that she was in the wrong and wanted to apologize to him.
Jing Rui was very surprised.
He was already two years old, but he had never met someone who respected him so much. Everyone thought that he was a child and did not care about his feelings at all. They forced their own thoughts and actions on him, even his parents.
This was the first time he had met an adult who didn''t treat him as a child, respected his thoughts, and even apologized for his actions just now.
Well, this aunt Zheng Lun was much better than his aunt Zhao Anan!
Look at her character. You have to respect children to win their respect!
Jing Rui had been cold to Zheng Lun in the beginning, but now he found her much more pleasing to the eye.
Of course, he was only a little more pleasing to the eye. He kept a straight face and didn''t say anything. Then he ran out of the ward while Shangguan ning and PEI Xinhua were talking.
When Shangguan ning was about to ask Jing Rui to greet PEI Xinhua, she suddenly realized that her son had disappeared again.
It''s really terrible. It only knows how to run out and can''t stop its rhythm at all!
Shangguan ning apologized to PEI Xinhua and ran out of the room.
Jing Yichen, who was talking to Zheng Jing in the corridor, couldn''t help but smile when he saw his wife running out. "There''s no need to chase him. Lee duo and his men will follow him. We won''t lose him."
Shangguan ning was relieved, but she stillined to Jing Yichen, "It''s all your fault for spoiling him. He disappears so easily. He''s so young, what if he''s abducted one day? It''s not safe out there now!"
"Don''t worry, it''ll be fine. Our son is so smart. If you want to kidnap him, you''ll need at least my IQ. There are only a few people in the world who are as smart as me. They will not do anything to Jing Rui. "
Jing Yichenplimented her for her high IQ, but Shangguan ning felt that it made sense. She nodded and turned around to go back to Zheng Lun''s ward.
Zheng Jing felt envious when he saw the love between the couple.
He could do the same with Zheng Lun in the future, right?
Chapter 840
Chapter 840: Snake beauty
Trantor: 549690339
It was not convenient to talk outside the ward, so Zheng Jing and Jing Yichen went into the ward that he had stayed inst night.
While they were talking in the room, Tiger and his men were guarding outside the ward. Zheng Jings ward was next to Zheng Lun s, so that they could protect Shangguan ning at the same time.
At the end of the corridor, a pink figure suddenly appeared.
She was wearing a peach-colored dress. The weather in April was still a little cold, but she only wore a thin silk short skirt with seven-quarter sleeves, revealing a pair of straight, slender, and wless long legs.
She had a white windbreaker on her arm, a pair of silver stiletto heels on her feet, and a Prada bag on her back. She was walking over to them gracefully.
When the person came closer, Tiger recognized her.
He smiled and greeted her,Hello, miss mi!
Mi Xiaoxiao liked Tigers honest and straightforward attitude the most. She smiled sweetly and said,Brother Hu, Hello! I missed you, did you miss me?
Her voice was soft and charming, and her appearance was elegant and shy. Several different temperaments mixed together, and it was indescribably pleasing to the eye!
Tigers men could not help but swallow their saliva as they looked at her two long, white legs.
However, was it really a good idea for this beauty to seduce Tiger in front of so many people?
These men, regardless of their age, all called Tiger brother Tiger. They did not dare to joke with the seemingly honest Tiger. None of them knew Tigers full name, and no one dared to ask.
In any case, they just had to do things honestly. When there were benefits, Tiger wouldnt take it all for himself. He would let all his brothers enjoy it. When there was danger, Tiger would be the first to rush up and wouldnt take them down.
Therefore, they all respected the powerful Tiger.
It wasnt that no one used to like Tiger. He was 1.85 meters tall and although he was not as good-looking as Jing Yichen, he was not too bad either. He was quite attractive to girls, especially his signature simple and honest smile, which had charmed many beautiful girls.
However, no one had ever confessed their love to Tiger as boldly as mi Xiaoxiao!
Brother Tiger?
Oh my God, its too sour!
I miss you?
Oh my God, he was too straightforward!
Would they be killed by Tiger after hearing this today?
Tiger didnt seem to know what his men were thinking. His smile didnt change at all. He said honestly,I havent seen you in a long time. I dont even remember what you look like!
Mi Xiaoxiao couldnt figure out what Tiger was thinking.
Did he really not remember her? She was so beautiful, it wouldnt be easy to forget her, right?
This move of hers, coupled with her unrivaled appearance and figure, should have a great impact on a man like Tiger who had no love experience!
Why didnt he seem to be moved at all?
Could it be that he was so slow that he didnt notice the female pheromones she released?
However, Tigers simple and honest smile really moved her!
This kind of face gave her a sense of security, unlike other men who were frivolous and unreliable.
Mi Xiaoxiao moved closer to Tiger, her nose almost touching his chin.Brother Tiger, if you want to see me, I can meet you more often! How about you treat me to lunch this afternoon?
Mi Xiaoxiaos strong fragrance entered Tigers nose, attacking his fragile nerves and making him feel allergic to perfume.
Tiger took a step back to put some distance between him and mi Xiaoxiao, but he still smiled.Miss mi, Im young masters bodyguard and need to protect him at all times. Im afraid I cant treat you to lunch. Im really sorry!
Eh, she was rejected!
That was a good thing. It meant that she had not chosen the wrong person. Tiger was not the kind of man who valued women!
Mi Xiaoxiaos heart was filled with joy. The smile on her pretty face grew even more radiant. Its fine. When youre free, you can treat me to a meal! You cant possibly stay idle for a moment, right?
Yes, Tiger answered seriously.Im not idle for a second. Im here to protect my young master 24/7!
So hurry up and leave. If you don t, Im going to sneeze from your perfume!
The president needs to sleep too! Mi Xiaoxiao refused to give up.
Im also responsible for protecting young master when hes sleeping.
You dont rest for 24 hours?
Yes, Im not resting! Tiger lied without blinking.
Mi Xiaoxiao pounded on Tigers chest.Hmph, liar! Last month, I saw you eating barbecue and drinking beer outside at night. You didnt even protect the president!
Tiger didnt feel any pain after being hit by her soft hand. He only felt that the ce where she hit him was itchy, as if he wanted her to hit him again to feel morefortable.
He looked at mi Xiaoxiaos fair skin and blinked.Youre very beautiful.
Eh? Complimented her for looking good?
Mi Xiaoxiaos eyes curved into crescents.
However, before she could be happy, she heard Tiger say,But you have too many boyfriends. Its easy for you to be cuckolded in the future.
Mi Xiaoxiaos fair face turned green.
Hmph, he actually dared to look down on me for being too experienced in love!
Just you wait, if I cant take you down, Ill never touch a man again in my life!
He had thought that he was easy to fool, but he was actually a smart person!
Mi Xiaoxiao was so angry that she bit Tiger hard, then turned around and went into the next Ward. She was here to find Shangguan ning, not Tiger.
Tiger had been bitten by the snake beauty for no reason, but he could do nothing about it. He could only ept the loss.
Did he say something wrong?
He and Lee duo had thought that mi Xiaoxiao was up to no good, so they had investigated her and found out that she had a lot of boyfriends! They would change after two days, and they would all be tall, rich, and handsome.
Besides being tall, he was neither rich nor handsome, so how could mi Xiaoxiao fall for him? Unless she was too lonely!
He didnt want such a fickle girlfriend. She was too beautiful and capable. If he couldnt control her in the future, she would easily cheat on him!
He still felt that a girl who was more innocent and a little more adorkable was more suitable for him.
Tigers thoughts disappeared in a sh. He turned around and saw his men trying to hold back theirughter.
It turned out that mi Xiaoxiao had bitten his shoulder through his white shirt, leaving a bright red lip print on his white shirt. It looked so intimate!
She was indeed a beautiful snake!
He was so scheming, yet he still had to stamp his seal on him before leaving!
No, he had to stay away from the snake beauty, or he might identally be swallowed alive by her!
Chapter 841: Biological parents
Chapter 841: Biological parents
Mi Xiaoxiao entered the ward. The anger on her face had long disappeared and was reced by a proper smile.
The worst thing was that she didn''t bring anything with her to the hospital today. How did she look like she was visiting a patient?
She had called Shangguan ningst night and heard that she mighte to the hospital today, so she followed her here.
She would never admit that she was here for Tiger, that two-faced guy!
Luckily, she didn''t know Zheng Lun, so it wouldn''t be too embarrassing if she didn''t bring any gifts.
She was in public rtions to begin with, so dealing with such a small matter was a piece of cake for her!
Mi Xiaoxiao was very eloquent and knowledgeable. She was good at talking to people and ghosts. It didn''t take long for her to have a good conversation with PEI Xinhua. Even Zheng Lun was looking at her with kind eyes. Shangguan ning was so surprised that she didn''te back to her senses for a while.
What a talent!
She knew it. None of the employees of Jingsheng enterprise were good people. They were all capable.
Mi Xiaoxiao''s arrival made the atmosphere in the ward more rxed, but on the other side of the wall, it was a little more serious.
Zheng Jing poured a cup of tea for Jing Yichen and another for himself. He sat opposite to Jing Yichen and asked in a low voice,"Master Jing, have you found anything?"
Jing Yichen didn''t touch the cup of tea. He was a clean freak and rarely touched the things outside, not even the ones prepared by Zheng Jing.
"I''ve found something,"
Jing Yichen''s voice was calm, but what he said made Zheng Jing scared.
"Gu qianyue must have had his eyes on Zheng Lun since a long time ago, but Zheng Lun was too guarded against strangers, so it was difficult for him to make a move. In the past ten years, he had bought many poisons.| He had been looking for an opportunity to poison Zheng Lun. The blind date gave him the best opportunity. "
"He also hired more than a dozen people to take turns to monitor your house and follow your family. They are all yang Muyan''s men. That''s how yang Muyan got to know that Gu qianyue wanted to kill Zheng Lun and started to cooperate with him. "
"Their method of tracking is very special. They didn''t follow you all the way, but just around your house. They often followed you in groups of two or three, so that they wouldn''t be discovered or lose the target. This method was designed by yang Muyan. She used to have someone follow me in this way. "
Zheng Jing broke out in a cold sweat. As a Criminal Police officer, he had learned how to track and counter-track people. But he had been followed for so long without being noticed.
Yang Muyan''s arrangements for her men were so thorough that it was shocking!
"How long have we been followed?"
"At least a year and a half. You won''t be followed when you go out, but you''ll be followed at home and in a few fixed ces, such as family MU''s Hospital and the criminal Police. "
When he was at home, it was equivalent to monitoring. Only when he came to the hospital or worked could he be considered as being followed.
However, this was already very terrifying!
"Gu qianyue has found out your daily routine, your habits, and your personality characteristics. He has also recorded them in detail on hisputer. My people hacked into hisputer and got a lot of information about him. I''ll ask Tiger to send you the details. Gu qianyue is aputer genius, and he has a lot of encrypted files on hisputer. It''s hard to hack into hisputer without alerting him, so it might take some time for us to get more information. "
Jing Yichen was aputer expert himself, and he had a group of experts who specialized in this field. Hacking into other people''s systems was amon thing, but it was still difficult for him to do it without alerting Gu qianyue.
Zheng Jing was surprised that Gu qianyue was aputer genius. All of them thought that he was an art student. He had an artistic aura all over him and didn''t look like a person who knew anything aboutputers at all!
"ording to Gu qianyue''s record, he had been trying to kill Zheng Lun for a long time. Yang Muyan had asked to cooperate with him, so he had agreed. It was he who had poisoned Zheng Lunst time, and it was yang Muyan who had provided him with the poison. Yang Muyan had arranged for someone to keep in touch with Gu qianyue, who would send him the poison every five days. Other than Gu qianyue, yang Muyan had also arranged three men to keep an eye on Zheng Lun. If Gu qianyue failed, they could kill Zheng Lun for him. This was the deal they had made a long time ago. "
In fact, yang Muyan had not only arranged for people to keep an eye on Zheng Lun, but also on Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan.
But Zhao Anan was in Germany now and those who had been keeping an eye on her had disappeared.
And Jing Yichen was by Shangguan ning''s side. He had already gotten rid of all the people who had been watching Shangguan ning.
"Master Jing, can you get rid of those three people?" Zheng Jing had never known that Zheng Lun could be so dangerous.
Fortunately, she was a girl who liked peace and quiet. She didn''t like to go out shopping or ying. Otherwise, there might not have been any problems.
Jing Yichen nodded."We are working on it. Two died and one escaped. We will get the news soon."
Zheng Jing let out a sigh of relief. It was good that Jing Yichen had helped him.
It didn''t matter if the desperadoes were killed. Those people had killed countless people. Their identities couldn''t be exposed, so no one would look into it even if they were killed.
"There''s another important clue. "
Jing Yichen paused and looked up at Zheng Jing, who was drinking tea with cracked lips. He said in a low voice, "I''ve asked someone to do a DNA test between Gu qianyue and his parents."
Zheng Jing swallowed a big mouthful of tea and looked at Jing Yichen in disbelief."How could it be like this? We always thought that Gu qianyue was his parents ''biological son. His parents loved him very much, even spoiled him! Those who knew the family of three didn''t say that Gu qianyue was adopted by them!"
"No, Gu qianyue was not adopted. He was bought from a human trafficker by Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi. Twenty years ago, they didn''t live in A city, but in B city. "
Jing Yichen''s cold voice made the temperature in the room drop. Zheng Jing felt cold all over.
"They did have a child before, but it was not a son, but a daughter. Her name is Gu Xi. Many people in Gu Yingjie''s hometown in B city know about this. They moved to A city to look for their daughter because their daughter was abducted and sold to A city when she was six. "
"In addition, my men found a photo of Gu Xi when she was young at her maternal grandmother''s house. At that time, Gu Xi was only four years old. However, although she was very young at that time, I felt that she was very much like another person. "
Zheng Jing''s heart skipped a beat and he asked subconsciously,"Who is it?"
"Your sister, Zheng Lun."
Chapter 842
Chapter 842: A secret that can not be told
Trantor: 549690339
With a tter, the teacup in Zheng Jings hand fell to the ground and the broken Porcin pieces scratched his ankle, but he didnt feel any pain.
His heart started to beat violently, and even his breathing became abnormally rapid!
Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi ... Are Luns biological parents?
He had been searching for so long, but he didnt expect the person he was looking for to be by his side all this time!
Its very possible, but I cant be sure. After all, Zheng Lun looked like your sister before. Its not surprising that someone looks like Zheng Lun.
Jing Yichen said as he sent a picture to Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing cried out after one look,It is Lun!
Zheng Lun had changed a lot after she grew up. But she looked so much like his sister when she was a child. Zheng Jing had a deep memory of their faces, so he could tell with one look.
He thought that the daughter of Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi must be Zheng Lun.
Otherwise, everything would be too much of a coincidence!
If their family had misjudged Zheng Luns age, which meant that Zheng Lun was not 28 years old but 26 years old, then everything would make sense.
The Gu family had lost a six-year-old daughter twenty years ago, and her name was Gu Xi, which was probably Xi Xi. Zheng Lun had been calling herself Qiqi all the time, but she might have been too young to remember the pronunciation of the two words.
In fact, until now, Zheng Lun couldnt tell qi from xi. She would always mix them up.
Gu qianyue had always wanted to kill Zheng Lun. He must have found out Zheng Luns real identity.
Sure enough, the next moment, Jing Yichen said,I guess your sister is Gu Xi. Otherwise, Gu qianyue would not be so eager to kill her. Theres no enmity between the two of them. Other than this, there cant be any other reason.
Gu qianyue is stubborn and selfish. After the Gu couple bought him from the human traffickers, they raised him like their own son. Gu qianyue probably wanted to kill Zheng Lun because he was afraid that they wouldnt want him anymore after they found Zheng Lun.
Its the Gu familys old home in B city. Everyone who knows the inside story says that Gu Xi is dead. It was Gu qianyue who told them about it, because Gu qianyue and Gu Xi had been kidnapped by the same human trafficker. The two of them had been together for a while, and then they were sold to other people at the same time. Gu qianyue said that Gu Xi died of illness during the reselling process, and she gave him her belongings.
Jing Yichen said as he took out his cell phone and sent a picture to Zheng Jing.
The small silver locket in the photo belongs to Gu Xi. Her name and date of birth are engraved on it. We dont know if Gu Xi gave this to Gu qianyue or if Gu qianyue took it from Gu Xi. The Gu couple must have bought Gu qianyue from the human traffickers because of this silver chain and raised him.
Zheng Jing looked at the picture and said slowly,When Lun gets better, I will show her the photos and see if she can remember the past. I have a feeling that things arent that simple!
Zheng Lun was as innocent as a piece of white paper. She must have been even stupider when she was young.
Gu qianyue was a cunning and smart man. It would be perfectly normal if he had set up a trap for Zheng Lun.
If he hadnt set Zheng Lun up, he wouldnt have wanted to kill Zheng Lun now!
It turned out that he had known Zheng Lun all along!
It turned out that he had never wanted Zheng Lun to be alive!
The news was so shocking that Zheng Jing could not digest it for a while.
What had happened to his Lun when she was young?
She had forgotten all her memories before she was six years old!
She couldnt remember her parents. She couldnt remember that Gu qianyue used to exist. She couldnt remember what the people who kidnapped her looked like. She couldnt even remember her own name.
She had even thought that the couple who had bought her from somewhere else and sold her were her parents!
I need Zheng Luns hair for a DNA test. Give the hair to Tiger and wait for my news.
Jing Yichen got up and walked out after telling her all the information he had.
Zheng Jing sat there alone, looking at the two pictures in his phone. His heart ached.
Zheng Lun had suffered so much pain and torture all because of Gu qianyue!
Without the need for a DNA test, Zheng Jing had already believed that Zheng Lun was the daughter of Gu couple.
If Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi knew that Gu qianyue, whom they had raised so dearly, was actually an ungrateful person, who not only caused them to lose their biological daughter, but also wanted to kill Gu Xi, who had already grown up, they would probably want to eat Gu qianyue up.
There were too many implications in this matter and Zheng Jing could not make the decision alone. He had to discuss it with Zheng qinan and PEI Xinhua.
Zheng Lun was not in good condition and Zheng Jing nned to tell her when she was better.
Perhaps she would be happy if she found her biological parents and they never abandoned her.
Zheng qinan and PEI Xinhua were both shocked when they heard about Zheng Luns family background from Zheng Jing.
They had never thought that the Gu couple were Zheng Luns biological parents.
Especially PEI Xinhua, she had a good rtionship with Wu Zi. The two had known each other for many years, but she had never heard Wu Zi mention that she had a daughter! She had never mentioned that Gu qianyue was her biological son!
However, PEI Xinhua felt relieved after thinking about it for a while.
She had never told Wu Zi that Zheng Lun was not her biological daughter.
She had never told anyone that the real Zheng Lun had died.
As a mother, she subconsciously didnt even dare to think about these things, because every time she thought about it, she would be in so much pain that her heart would tear.
PEI Xinhua and Zheng qinan finally understood why Gu qianyue wanted to kill Zheng Lun even though Zheng Lun and Gu qianyue had no grudges against each other.
It turned out that he had been hiding such a big secret and conspiracy all by himself!
He wanted to kill Zheng Lun and bury this secret forever so that no one would be able to expose his lie and take his parents away.
But PEI Xinhua couldnt bear to let Zheng Lun acknowledge her biological parents.
She had to return the daughter that she had raised painstakingly to someone else. This was simply digging out her heart!
Zheng qinan was more decisive than her.When master Jing gets the results of the paternity test and we have confirmed Luns identity, we will tell Gu Yingjie and Lun.
Chapter 843-shaken
Chapter 843-shaken
Zheng qinan saw that PEI Xinhua had started to cry softly and knew that she was reluctant to leave. Heforted her softly,""Don''t cry. Don''t you have confidence in our family? Lun has been living in our house for twenty years and we are so close to her. She will not leave us and she will still be our daughter. "
"But ..."
"No buts,"
Zheng qinan interrupted his wife and said with a heavy tone,""We have also lost our daughter and we know how painful it is. Now that we know whose child Lun is, how can we not tell her? Gu Yingjie and his wife were reasonable people. They would let Lun live with them. She was the daughter of both families. It''s a good thing to have two more people to love Lun. Don''t be petty!"
Zheng qinan said as he looked at Zheng Jing who was standing next to him.
His son would probably be the happiest when he found Zheng Lun''s biological parents.
In this way, there would be no more obstacles for him to marry Zheng Lun.
At this point, Zheng qinan''s mentality had also changed.
He couldn''t bear to part with Zheng Lun either. The blood rtionship between his biological parents could never be cut off. The best way to make Zheng Lun a part of their family seemed to be to make Zheng Jing marry her.
He was not so against the idea of Zheng Jing marrying Zheng Lun anymore.
Zheng qinan was even a little happy. Luckily, Zheng Lun liked Zheng Jing too. If they got married, she would be part of the Zheng family for the rest of her life, his daughter with PEI Xinhua.
PEI Xinhua felt a little ashamed when her husband said that she was ''petty''.
She was indeed selfish, more so than anyone else.
Because she was so afraid of losing Zheng Lun!
This was her daughter, how could she just hand her over!
But she also knew that it would be unfair to Zheng Lun and Gu Yingjie if she didn''t tell the truth.
No matter what, she had to tell Zheng Lun the truth even if Zheng Lun didn''t live with her or call her mom anymore.
At night, Zheng Lun was lying on the bed and was sensitive enough to notice PEI Xinhua''s unusual behavior.
PEI Xinhua was happy for a moment, sad for a moment, crying for a moment, and then staring at her intensely, as if she was going to disappear tomorrow.
However, her body was obviously much better!
Zheng Lun held PEI Xinhua''s hand and wrote on her palm. What''s wrong?
PEI Xinhua kissed her daughter''s pale face and showed a smile that was uglier than crying.""It''s okay. You''re well now. Mom is very happy. We can go home in two days."
Really?
Zheng Lun had some doubts.
Did something happen?
Two hours ago, her parents and brother had left the ward and asked the nurse toe in and watch over her. They only returned after more than half an hour.
After PEI Xinhua came back, her expression had obviously changed.
Zheng Lun couldn''t figure out what it was. She thought that it might be about Gu qianyue. He had caused her to be like this. Her parents would not let him off easily.
However, if he killed Gu qianyue, his parents would be so sad.
Zheng Lun guessed randomly and soon fell asleep.
She had slept very little for the past two days. Now that the pain had subsided and the critical period had passed, she could finally have a good sleep.
She optimistically thought that maybe after she slept, she would be pleasantly surprised to find that she could speak the next morning!
Being unable to speak was really painful.
He hoped that she wouldn''t be mute because of this, or she would really break down.
The next morning, Zheng Jing received a message from Jing Yichen. It was a short message, with only six words. Zheng Lun was Gu Xi.
It was confirmed!
Very good!
Zheng Jing was so excited that he could not control himself.
Now that he had confirmed Zheng Lun''s identity, he could marry her!
Her father had clearly agreed to let the Gu family acknowledge her. That was to say, everyone would know that Zheng Lun was not his biological sister and they could get married!
Zheng Jing immediately told Zheng qinan and PEI Xinhua the news.
Neither of them was as excited as Zheng Jing. They only felt a sense of loss.
Zheng Jing hugged PEI Xinhua, whose eyes were red, and said in a low voice,"Mom, if you can''t bear to part with Lun, I will marry her and she will be your daughter forever!"
PEI Xinhua''s crying stopped.
She raised her head and looked at her son, who had a well-thought-out n, and said hesitantly,""This ... Isn''t very good, right? She''s your sister after all!"
Zheng Jingughed in his heart. PEI Xinhua had wavered, but it was still hard for her to ept the change of their identities.
He deliberately said,"sure, if you don''t want me to marry her, then you''ll let someone else marry her. When she marries into someone else''s house, you won''t be able to see her. She might only go back to the Gu family and will probablye back to our house less and less. Are you really willing to do that?"
PEI Xinhua subconsciously retorted,"nonsense, your sister is not that kind of person!" She won''t forget her mother!"
However, even though she said that, she was actually a little nervous.
Zheng Lun was a filial child. She would be filial to her foster mother and her biological parents. In this way, her time and energy would be divided into two!
What was more, PEI Xinhua had been looking for a suitable husband for Zheng Lun for so long, but she had not found a suitable one. It seemed that her own son was the most suitable!
"AI!"
PEI Xinhua sighed heavily, then patted his son''s shoulder and said,""Let me think about it. I can''t hurt Lun. We can''t make this decision so easily. We have to ask for Lun''s opinion, as well as Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi ''s. "
Zheng Jing was so happy that he smiled after hearing her words.
PEI Xinhua had clearly given in!
It was the right way to find Zheng Lun''s biological parents!
Zheng Jing got rid of the fatigue and pain from the past few days and went into the ward excitedly. He held Zheng Lun''s hand and said with a smile,"Lun, get well soon!"
Seeing her brother so happy, Zheng Lun was a little confused.
Why are you so happy all of a sudden? Did something happen again that she didn''t know about?
It was not good to be sick. She did not know anything and could only lie in bed every day.
When she woke up today, a miracle did not happen. She was still unable to speak. The ulcers in her throat and tongue had notpletely healed. If she spoke now, her throat would still hurt as if it was pierced by needles. She could not make a sound at all!
Zheng Jing put Zheng Lun''s hand on his face and saw that she didn''t look as happy as she had just recovered. He asked, "What''s wrong? What are you worried about?"
Zheng Lun wrote on his palm, expressing her worries. Didn''t doctor mu say that I''ve recovered? Why can''t I speak? will I be mute?

Zheng Jing patted her hand andforted her.Its okay. Your throat is hurt. It will take a few days to recover. Dont be in such a hurry to speak, you definitely wont be mute. Silly girl, youre overthinking it.
In fact, he was also afraid that Zheng Luns throat would be damaged, because yang Muyan had been disgusted by anyone with a nice voice ever since her own throat had been injured and her voice had be hoarse.
Zheng Luns voice was soft and gentle. It was very pleasant to the ears.
Yang Muyan had asked Gu qianyue to poison Zheng Lun to make her mute. The poison that she had given Gu qianyue was aimed at the throat and was extremely vicious.
Luckily, Mu Tong had checked Zheng Luns recovery and said that there was not much of a problem. Zheng Lun couldnt speak now because the wound in her throat hadnt recovered yet. She would be able to make a sound when it recovered.
If youre still worried, I can ask doctor mu to take a look at you.
Zheng Lun nodded her head and agreed.
She felt that it was safer to let Mu Tong check it again, otherwise it would be toote if something happened.
Zheng Jing really wanted to tell Zheng Lun that he had found her biological parents and that he could marry her in the future.
But seeing that Zheng Lun was still not in a good state, he held back his anger.
Mu Tong had told Zheng Lun to rest for the next few days, which would be good for her recovery.
He had to kill Gu qianyue first!
In the evening, Zheng Jing came back to the Zheng family from the hospital. Then he sent Gu qianyue a message and asked him toe to his house.
Half an hourter, Gu qianyue arrived in his car.
He looked very handsome, with fair skin, a medium build, and a slightly thin body. Today, he was wearing a light gray id shirt, casual pants of the same color, and coffee-colored casual shoes. He looked elegant and refined, like an ordinary artistic youth. No one could feel the darkness and viciousness in his heart at all.
Zheng Jing was sitting in the living room, making a pot of tea. The steaming out of the cup blocked the air and sight.
Qian Yue is here? I heard that you like to drink iced oolong tea. Try this one I bought.
His voice was the same as usual, neither overly enthusiastic nor overly cold, as if nothing had happened.
The lights in the living room were not turned on. The sun was gradually setting, and her vision was already blurry.
Gu qianyue saw Zheng Jing sitting on the sofa alone. He couldnt see Zheng Jings expression, but his instinct told him that something was wrong.
A cold glint shed across his eyes before it disappeared.
Brother Zheng Jing, why are you home alone? Wheres uncle Zheng and Auntie PEI? Hadnt Lune back from Germany? I havent seen her for a few days. My mother has been talking about Lun for the past two days!
ording to criminal psychology, when a person felt guilty, they would talk more. Criminals would habitually talk more than before to divert other peoples attention and eliminate their own anxiety and uneasiness.
Zheng Jing was very experienced in dealing with criminals. He had deliberately created a depressing environment to give Gu qianyue a lot of psychological pressure, so that he would be confused.
As long as they had not received special training like Lu, any criminal would have strong psychological fluctuations.
Lu had no emotional fluctuations after killing people. Even a lie detector could not tell if she was telling the truth. She had always been a strong-willed person. After three years of special training in the killer organization, she had be very strong.
ording to Jing Yichens investigation, Gu qianyue had never received any special training in this field. He was only good at usingputers and was a little smart. But his disguise could be easily exposed by professional criminal Police.
For example, he was already on guard against Zheng Jing. He didnt even sit down opposite Zheng Jing or drink the tea that Zheng Jing had made for him.
Zheng Jings face was hidden in the shadow. He didnt answer Gu qianyues question, but said in a calm tone,What are you standing there for?e and sit down.
Zheng Jing started to admire Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen had always wanted to kill Jing Yiran, but he had held back for more than twenty years.
Now that Gu qianyue was standing in front of him, Zheng Jing felt that he had to use all his strength to control himself so that he would not kill Gu qianyue.
He couldnt even bear it for a day!
Gu qianyue walked to Zheng Jing slowly, sat down on the sofa and asked him,Brother Zheng Jing, why didnt you turn on the lights? The sky is already so dark.
Zheng Jing suddenly smiled. He took a sip of tea and then said casually,Why did you turn on the lights? Let me see your heart? Or should I let you see my expression?
What are you talking about? I dont understand.
Gu qianyue furrowed his pretty eyebrows and asked with confusion.
Oh, really? Dont you understand this? Alright, Ill tell you something you can understand.
Thest ray of the suns light had alsopletely disappeared, and the living room fell into darkness and dead silence.
Before Zheng Jing could say anything, Gu qianyue couldnt stand the pressure anymore. He got up and pressed the switch on the wall.
The light returned, and Zheng Jing was standing behind him.
Youre scared?
I ... I am. I have been afraid of the dark since I was a child. Dontugh at me, brother Zheng Jing. Gu qianyue only paused for a second, but soon recovered, as if he was really frightened by the darkness.
I havent even said anything yet, why are you so scared? Gu qianyue, I didnt know you were so timid. I thought you were powerful because you were so brutal, but it turns out youre just a bully.
Gu qianyue couldnt help but take a step back. His face was a little pale, but he didnt panic.Brother Zheng Jing, what is wrong with you today? Why do you sound so strange?
Oh, maybe I shouldnt call you Gu qianyue. I should call you ... Little hai.
Gu qianyues pupils suddenly shrank!
How could this be!
How did Zheng Jing know his nickname?
Shouldnt all the people who know his name be dead by now?
Yes, all of them had been killed by him and yang Muyan.
Oh, no, no, no, there was still that damned Zheng Lun!
Did Zheng Lun remember what had happened in the past?
Gu qianyue panicked for a moment, but soon he realized that Zheng Jing could do nothing even if he knew his name. This could not prove anything!
He gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and said in a sad tone,Brother Zheng Jing, you know about my past? I thought I hid it well. The past was too painful, and I forced myself to forget it.
Chapter 845: Stepped under the feet (2)
Chapter 845: Stepped under the feet (2)
Zheng Jing said lightly,"yes, not only do I know about your past, but I also know about my sister''s past. She is so miserable." When she was young, she was tricked by you. Not only could she not reunite with her parents, but she was also sold to another human trafficker. She was hungry and cold every day, and was whipped like a dog, forcing her to beg for food. If she didn''t meet me, she would have starved to death or been beaten to death. "
"Brother Zheng Jing, what are you saying? When have I ever cheated Lun? I didn''t even know her in the past! I ..."
Before Gu qianyue could finish his words, he was kicked to the ground by Zheng Jing.
He screamed in pain and curled up on the ground.
He felt that his ribs had been broken by Zheng Jing.
"You ... What are you doing!"
Gu qianyue was in so much pain that he couldn''t even speak properly. He wanted to get up and beat Zheng Jing up, but he couldn''t get up because of the pain in his abdomen.
Zheng Jing looked down at Gu qianyue. He couldn''t control his anger anymore and beat him up.
He had thought that he would beat Gu qianyue up if he didn''t tell the Gu couple the truth. However, he couldn''t control himself when he saw Gu qianyue''s hypocritical face.
Zheng Lun had suffered so much, but why was Gu qianyue still living so freely?
"There''s a way to heaven, but you don''t want to take it. There''s no Door to Hell, but you insist on going there. Gu qianyue, do you think I won''t know what you''ve done just because you didn''t leave any evidence behind?"
Zheng Jing''s face was full of anger and hatred. He kept kicking Gu qianyue''s chest until his internal organs were broken and blood was flowing out of his mouth.
He saw Gu qianyue was in a cold sweat from the pain, but he still had the mind to look outside. He sneered and said,""What, are you still counting on your aplices to save you?"
Zheng Jing''s ck Military Leather Boots stepped on Gu qianyue''s fair face mercilessly. His handsome face was deformed and he looked very scary.
"Zheng Jing, are you crazy? Let me go!"
Gu qianyue was in so much pain that tears were flowing out of his eyes. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to bear with the pain, then squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
"I can clearly tell you that your three aplices are all dead! The next one to die is you!"
Zheng Jing stomped hard on Gu qianyue''s face and the skin on his face was scratched and blood started to flow out.
"Argh! I want to call the police! You''re intentionally harming my personal safety!"
Gu qianyue held Zheng Jing''s foot with all his might to stop him from stepping down. But he was too weak to be Zheng Jing''s opponent.
He was both afraid and resentful of Zheng Jing, but at the same time, he was shocked. Had his three helpers all died? How could this be possible? The three of them had hidden so well that even he had a hard time finding them. How had Zheng Jing found them?
And how did Zheng Jing know about these three people?
Zheng Jing seemed to know what Gu qianyue was thinking. He said coldly,""Do you think that yang Muyan is invincible? She was a human, not a God! The three people she gave you, unless they don''t eat, drink or move, they will definitely leave traces. It won''t take any effort to find them!"
Of course, he didn''t spend any effort on it. The person he had spent so much time and resources on was Jing Yichen.
"You dared toe to see me alone because you think you have someone to protect you, right? It''s a pity that the people who are protecting you are all dead!"
Seeing Gu qianyue''s miserable look, Zheng Jing finally felt a little better.
He was Zheng Lun''s brother and he had failed to protect her. He should take revenge for her.
He would make Gu qianyue suffer all the pain that Zheng Lun had suffered.
If only Mu Qing was in the country now, he would have many ways to torture people, and there would be no visible marks on the surface.
Gu qianyue was still pretending to be innocent, which made Zheng Jing want to hit him even more.
Zheng Jing''s foot let go of Gu qianyue''s face and stepped on his well-maintained, delicate fingers.
"You won''t admit that you poisoned my sister? Fine, I''ll break your fingers today and then feed you poison!"
Gu qianyue immediately screamed,"what are you talking about? it has nothing to do with me!" Just because you''re a Criminal Police officer, you think you can hit people as you please?"
"You don''t deserve to be human! So what if I hit you? I still have a lot of ways to torture people that I haven''t used yet, so you better not die so easily!"
Zheng Jing kept stepping on Gu qianyue''s feet one finger at a time. In the quiet vi, there came a creaking sound and then Gu qianyue''s shrill scream.
Gu qianyue regretteding to the appointment!
He hadn''t seen Zheng Lun for the past few days. Every time he came to the Zheng family, it was either PEI Xinhua or Zheng qinan who was at home alone. In fact, he had already noticed that something was wrong.
However, he thought about it carefully and realized that he had left no evidence behind. The poison in Zheng Lun''s body was far from breaking out. She should have no symptoms now.
He felt that he had not been exposed. Zheng qinan and PEI Xinhua still seemed to treat him the same as before, and there was not much change.
He came here today to see when Zheng Lun woulde back, because he had to continue to poison Zheng Lun until the dose was enough to cause cancer. By then, even God would not be able to save her!
Unexpectedly, he was beaten up by Zheng Jing when he arrived!
He still didn''t know where he had gone wrong!
Oh, that''s right! Had the death of Zheng Lun''s anchovy aroused Zheng Jing''s suspicion?
But he had clearly finished all the desserts! Nothing was left behind!
Yes, he had also eaten those poisonous desserts. But every time after he finished, he would make an excuse to go to the bathroom and then force himself to vomit all the desserts he had eaten. So he only had mild symptoms, not as serious as Zheng Lun.
Zheng Lun was not at home these days. Was she in the hospital because of the poison instead of visiting a friend in Germany?
No matter what, Gu qianyue was determined not to admit it.
Zheng Jing had no evidence to prove that he was the one who had caused Zheng Lun''s death. Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi loved him so much that they treated him as their own son. They would definitely believe him and not Zheng Jing.
No matter what, he could not lose these parents that he had spent so much effort to deceive!
He needed parents like that. He would not allow them to find their biological daughter! Otherwise, everything that had happened back then would be exposed, and he would lose everything he had now!
Chapter 846
Chapter 846: Gu Xi
Trantor: 549690339
This couple was much better than his biological parents!
Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi were both knowledgeable university professors, and their family conditions were excellent. He no longer needed to suffer! He didnt want to live the days when several people squeezed on a small brick bed to sleep without aplete nket! He also wanted to be like the children in the city, living in high-rise buildings, wearing branded clothes, and eating the most exquisite food!
Moreover, they were not like his biological parents, who would hit and scold their child if things were not going their way. They did not care about their childs life at all. Wu Zi was always patient and kind, using the gentlest way to make him change some bad habits.
Why did that coward Zheng Lun have such good parents? he should have such parents too!
No one knew that he was the only one among the dozen or so children in the hands of the human traffickers who had taken the initiative to follow the human traffickers, and not the one who had been abducted by the human traffickers.
When the scammer lied to him, he knew it very well, but he pretended not to know anything and followed the human traffickers.
He had been sold four times in a month. On the fifth time, he was sold to a couple of human traffickers. Then he met Zheng Lun.
At that time, her name was not Zheng Lun, but Xixi.
Among all the children, she was the prettiest, but also the stupidest.
No one knew how old she was, but one thing was for sure, she was the youngest of all the children at that time.
The clothes she was wearing were the most beautiful and expensive of all the children.
Gu qianyue clearly remembered how she looked like at that time. She was like an angel who had fallen into the mortal world. She was innocent, cute, and ignorant.
She was wearing a light pink dress, and the leather sandals on her feet were so beautiful that they were too eye-catching, so much so that they were snatched away by other children. Although the shoes were too small for the others to wear, Yingluo was still wearing them.
This should be her first time being abducted, unlike the other children who had been abducted several times. Therefore, she still had some good stuff on her.
She was wearing a small Tourmaline Bracelet on her hand, which was taken away by the couple. The candy in her pocket was also snatched away by a group of children.
She also had a small backpack with her. Although the things in the backpack were not valuable, they had been snatched away by the red-eyed child.
Gu qianyue was already an experienced man at that time, so he would never let go of such a fat sheep. He was sharp-eyed and took away a small silver lock from Xixis neck, as well as a small handkerchief from her backpack.
At that time, he was illiterate. Onlyter did he find out that the silver lock and the small handkerchief both had Gu Xis name on them.
Even though he couldnt read, Gu qianyue still kept the two items with him.
The reason why he left with the human traffickers and did not stay in that poor house was so that he could live a good life!
Xixis family background had clearly exceeded his understanding. In his heart, Xixi was like a little princess! Her house must be extremely luxurious!
Gu qianyue was eleven years old at that time, five years older than Xixi, who was six years old. However, he was not tall because of malnutrition and slow development. He looked like he was seven or eight years old at most, so the human traffickers wanted him. Human traffickers liked younger children, because they knew that such children were popr. The older the abducted child was, the more they would remember, and the higher the probability of them escaping in the future, and no one would be willing to buy them.
At that time, Gu qianyue had already thought of using Xixis personal belongings to please her parents.
It was less likely to go looking for a lost child in a poor little ravine. They didnt have the financial means to look for one, and some didnt feel the pinch. In his home, after he went missing, his parents might be very happy because they had one less mouth to eat.
If a child got lost in the city, the parents would do their best to find him. This was because they usually only had one child. Without their child, there was no way for them to live!
Gu qianyue thought that Xixis parents would probablye to her. If Xixi died and he got her token, he might be adopted!
He had been resold so many times and had already seen several children being bought by rich people. He was extremely envious and wished that he could be bought immediately!
However, before he could think of a way to kill Xixi, she was quickly bought by another human trafficker.
Xixi was too beautiful and obedient. Such a child was very popr.
Just when Gu qianyue felt that it was a pity, Xixis parents came to him!
Of course, the human traffickers would never admit that they had sold Xixi. Otherwise, it would be easy for their anxious parents to call the police. They could not see the light at all!
Gu qianyue knew that his chance hade!
He lied that he had been sold with Xixi, but Xixis body was too weak and she had died during the transportation process. Before she died, Xixi had given him all her things.
His innocent and silly appearance was 90% simr to Xixi S. He also had the most important token from Gu Xi. Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi did not find their daughter, so they adopted Gu qianyue without hesitation.
However, the Gu couple had never believed that their daughter was dead. It was the same for all parents. Without seeing it with their own eyes, no matter how much they talked about it, they would never believe that their child was dead.
For so many years, the couple had been looking for their daughter while raising Gu qianyue.
They found Gu qianyue in A city, so they thought that their daughter might be in A city as well. Therefore, they moved to A city and started to search for Gu qianyue.
The eleven-year-old Gu qianyue had a deep sense of crisis.
He couldnt wait to find Xixi and then kill this threat!
In fact, at that time, Gu qianyue didnt have any idea about killing people. He just subconsciously didnt want Gu Xi to live.
He hid his age and lied that he was only seven years old. Then, the Gu couple sent him to the first grade of elementary school to study.
Gu qianyue, who had never been to school, seized every opportunity to learn. He was smarter than other children, and he was older, so it was much easier for him to learn.
Six yearster, he was admitted to the best junior high school in A city when he was 17. There, he met a girl named Zheng Lun.
Gu qianyue, who had never talked to anyone, started to approach Zheng Lun on purpose.
Because he always felt that Zheng Lun and Gu Xi looked very simr!
Although she looked a little different now, she was still the same. Zheng Lun was as innocent and kind as Gu Xi, who was easy to deceive.
But Gu qianyue was not sure if Zheng Lun was Gu Xi. If he killed the wrong person, he would be in big trouble.
Chapter 847: The brutal Zheng Jing
Chapter 847: The brutal Zheng Jing
What was more, Zheng qinan, Zheng Lun''s father, was the Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau of A city at that time. If his daughter had died for no reason, he would definitely not let go of any suspicious people.
Gu qianyue didn''t dare to act rashly. He approached Zheng Lun carefully, trying to prove whether Zheng Lun was Gu Xi or not.
He had proposed to go to Zheng Lun''s house many times, but Zheng Lun was too defensive. Even though they talked a lot and were already close ssmates, she was still a little timid and didn''t want to get close to him. She even refused his request to go to the Zheng family.
Although he and Zheng Lun had been ssmates for many times, he had never been to Zheng Lun''s house, not even once.
Gu qianyue was very anxious, but he did gain something.
At least, he now knew that Zheng Lun had lost her memory before she was six years old. She couldn''t remember many things in the past.
This was really good news!
He felt that there was an 80% chance that Zheng Lun was Gu Xi, the girl he had met before.
What made him go crazy with jealousy was that Gu Xi was also adopted by someone, and it was such a superior family!
In many people''s eyes! The Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau was already a very high position. When Zheng Lun was in high school, Zheng qinan had already be the director of the Public Security Bureau, which was also a Big Shot in A city!
Why? Other than having a pretty and adorable face, what else did Gu Xi have? She was so stupid that she was easily deceived and bullied by others. She didn''t know how to protect herself at all. One look and you could tell that she had been pampered since she was young. She had zero life skills!
Why were there so many people who liked her? her luck was so good that it made people jealous!
He had tried so hard to please the Gu couple, for fear that they would abandon him one day. For this reason, he had even taken the risk to find someone to buy a sterile drug to sterilize his adoptive parents!
If he couldn''t have any other children, then his position in the Gu family would be very firm! The Gu family''s money would all be his, and no one would take it away from him!
Zheng Lun didn''t need to do anything and was loved by the Zheng family. Her mother drove her to and from school every day and didn''t want her to live in the school.
She still had a brother who loved her to the core!
Was it because she was kind that the heavens favored her?
Gu qianyue hated Zheng Lun so much that he had stalked her many times and drugged her, causing her to have diarrhea and miss the exam.
He didn''t have the power to kill Zheng Lun at that time, but he could torture her.
After graduation, he had "met" Zheng Lun many times, but what made him furious was that Zheng Lun didn''t even remember him!
How stupid and stupid was this girl to bepletely ignorant of the poison of others!
It seemed that killing her was too easy!
From that day on, Gu qianyue had been nning to kill Zheng Lun.
Even God was on his side. Zheng Lun''s mother and his mother had be good friends. They got together asionally and wanted to be inws.
So he went on a blind date with Zheng Lun.
He had been afraid that Wu Zi would recognize Zheng Lun, but she didn ''t!
Zheng Lun''s face had changed a lot. Her face was no longer chubby and round like when she was a child, but had be slim and oval. Even her single eyelids had be double eyelids and her nose bridge had be higher.
It was normal for Wu Zi to not recognize her.
Gu qianyue even suspected that he had mistaken Zheng Lun for Gu Xi.
And PEI Xinhua treated Zheng Lun as if she was her own daughter. She would even say that Zheng Lun was her own child.
The best way to determine whether Zheng Lun was Gu Xi or not was to do a DNA test.
The result of the DNA test proved that Zheng Lun was the biological daughter of Gu couple.
Gu qianyue couldn''t suppress the killing intent in his heart any longer. He started to buy drugs online.| Yao wanted to kill Zheng Lun quietly.
Just then, a woman named yang Muyan appeared. She not only provided him with a detailed poisoning n, but also a more subtle and effective poison.
Yang Muyan didn''t allow him to refuse. She even sent someone to keep an eye on him. If he couldn''t kill Zheng Lun, he and Zheng Lun would both die.
So, Gu qianyue poisoned the food.
The n was perfect and almost sessful, but it was ruined by a few small fish!
His ribs had been broken by Zheng Jing and his internal organs were in so much pain that he felt as if they had been torn apart. His face was also burning.
The worst part was his fingers!
It was said that the fingers were connected to the heart and any broken finger would hurt badly. But now, all ten fingers had been broken by Zheng Jing.
The fracture of the thumb was so sharp that it had pierced through the skin and was directly exposed!
This Zheng Jing was a lunatic!
How could he be so brutal!
No, he had to leave this ce as soon as possible, or he would be tortured to death by Zheng Jing tonight.
Gu qianyue was lying on the ground, trying to hold back the great pain of his broken fingers. He supported himself with his elbows and slowly crawled forward.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Zheng Jing stepped on his back without hesitation.
The violent force almost stomped Gu qianyue to death!
He spat out a mouthful of blood and hid the hatred in his eyes. He gritted his teeth and said,""You have misunderstood me. I have never done anything to let Lun down. I beg you, please stop calling and let''s talk this out!"
Zheng Jing squatted down and pulled Gu qianyue''s hair up.""Now you''re willing to talk to me properly? Well, let me ask you, how did Lun miss her parents? What did you do to them?"
"I really don''t understand these things. Isn''t Lun your sister? Why are there missing parents again? You''ve really misunderstood me. Please let me go. My parents are waiting for me at home for dinner. "
Zheng Jing sneered,"you want to threaten me with your parents?" Humph, I, Zheng Jing, am not scared. Don''t worry, they won''t be your parents very soon! You can stay at my ce for the night. When the sun rises tomorrow, everything will be different!"
"You''re talking nonsense. They will always be my parents!"
"Your parents? Oh, don''t worry, they''lle for you! That poor little mountain vige called Shui qingwa had a talent like you. How could your parents note to im their own son?"
"What did you just say?!"
Gu qianyue''s face finally changed!
He never wanted to see his biological parents again in his life, and he would never return to that small vige that was like a stinking ditch! There was nothing to eat or wear there. Even electricity was cut off, and drinking water was a problem!
Chapter 848
Chapter 848: A nightmare
Trantor: 549690339
They sold me and didnt want me anymore. I dont have such parents. Its no use even if you find them!
Gu qianyue shouted with all his might. He hated that family, hated that poor life, and hated those brothers and sisters who only knew how to get a job!
Zheng Jing didnt know that Gu qianyue had followed a human trafficker, but Jing Yichens men had found out that although his parents were poor, they had never sold any of their children. After Gu qianyue had gone missing, they had even asked the vigers to look for him for a long time.
However, they had many children in their family. It was not sad to lose one of them. Besides, Gu qianyue was quiet and did not like to do farm work, so he was not very likable.
Gu qianyues parents and siblings were all excited when they heard that their son had be a university teacher and that his foster parents were all university professors. They all wanted toe to the city to work for him.
Zheng Jing couldnt kill Gu qianyue now, but he could at least annoy him.
Didnt gu qianyue always want Zheng Lun to lose everything and her life? Then let him lose his life after losing everything!
Zheng Jing called the Gu couple and told them that Gu qianyue would be staying at the Zheng familys house tonight. The couple was confused as to why Gu qianyue was willing to stay outside, but they didnt suspect that he had been beaten up by Zheng Jing and imprisoned.
It was a good thing that Gu qianyue was willing to be close to the Zheng family. They would be inws in the future. The fact that he was staying over meant that the Zheng family liked him.
Youre shameless! You lied to my parents, they will never let you off! Zheng Jing, you have ruined the friendship between our two families. You are a sinner!
Gu qianyue couldnt go home. He was so scared that he pushed all the me to Zheng Jing.
He knew his parents very well. They both loved him very much. If someone bullied him, they would protect him at all costs!
But now that Zheng Jing had found out that Zheng Lun was Gu Xi, he could not act rashly and let Zheng Lun live for a few more days.
Humph, if Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi knew that Zheng Lun was their daughter, they would definitely agree with him to marry Zheng Lun! When they were in his territory, Zheng Lun would be at his mercy!
Zheng Jing saw the hatred in Gu qianyues eyes and knew what he was up to.
He grabbed Gu qianyues cor with one hand and dragged him from the living room to the small garden of the vi,Dont worry, you wont die for the time being. You can sleep here with the rats tonight. Your parents wille to take you home tomorrow!
Gu qianyue grabbed Zheng Jings legs in a panic and refused to let him go.No, no, you have to take me to the hospital! My ribs are broken, and my fingers are broken. Ill die if I sleep here tonight! Quickly get me a doctor!
Zheng Jing kicked him away and strode back to the vi.
He went up to the second floor and looked down at Gu qianyue, who was crawling slowly on the ground, trying to escape, through the window. His eyes were full of mockery.
You want to leave this ce?
More than a dozen of his men were guarding outside. If Gu qianyue, who was seriously injured, could escape, his men would all be gone!
The Zheng familys garden was not very big, but it was extremely difficult for Gu qianyue, who was covered in wounds, to climb out of the garden. Every time he moved, his body would hurt as if it was being torn apart. It was so painful that he almost passed out several times.
Moreover, all ten of his fingers were broken, so he could not exert any strength in his palm at all. He could only rely on his forearm to support himself.
By the time he spent more than three hours climbing out of the garden, the skin on his forearm had been scraped.
However, what awaited him outside the garden was not freedom, but more painful torture.
The next morning, Gu qianyue was taken to family MUs Hospital by Zheng Jing. Mu Tong had treated his wounds himself and fixed his broken ribs and fingers. But Zheng Jing didnt allow Mu Tong to give Gu qianyue any anesthetic during the treatment.
The pain of fixing a bone was not something that a human could bear!
Gu qianyue passed out from the pain.
When he woke up, the people who appeared in front of him were not the well-cultivated Gu couple, but his biological parents and brothers and sisters who had already given birth to children from the mountains!
Aiya, little hai, youre awake! Our entire family has been waiting for you the entire night!
Little hai, Im your mother. Youve grown so big in the blink of an eye. I cant even recognize you!
Little hai, Im your big brother, do you still remember? Come, these two are your nieces. I heard that youre doing well now, but you dont have any children. These two girls are obedient, so theyll be your daughters in the future!
Big brother, how can you be like this? weve already agreed that youll give a daughter and Ill give a son. If youre giving two, then Ill give two too! Little hai, second sisters two sons will be your own sons, you cant mistreat them! You havente home for so many years. Youre really cruel. Weve all missed you to death!
The ward immediately turned into a wet market. It was noisy and chaotic like a pot of porridge. The adults were shouting, scolding, and crying at the children. In order to send the children out, they had even started to fight without caring about their Brotherhood!
Gu qianyue felt that he had returned to the nightmare of poverty overnight after working so hard for so long!
Could it be that he would never be able to get rid of that hateful family in his life?
Gu qianyue looked at those disgusting brothers and sisters who were trying their best to squeeze to his bed and put the baby on him, not caring about his wounds or whether he was Dead or Alive. They just wanted to benefit him. He felt irritated, disgusted, and evil!
These people all deserved to die!
He wanted to kill them all! This way, no one would know about his past, and no one would shamelessly pester him again!
He roared in a hoarse voice,Get out! Im not little hai, I dont know you!
However, no one listened to him at all. Other than his parents who scolded him for being unfilial, the rest of the people were still desperately pushing children in front of him. Some had already begun to cry about being poor and asked him for money to spend.
No one cared about why he was hospitalized, and no one asked him how he was injured!
This was his home, his family!
Hehe, he wouldnt feel the slightest bit of guilt or uneasiness in his heart after killing these people.
It was all his fault for being too merciful. He should have killed all these people in the past, and there wouldnt be so much trouble today!
The wound on his arm was bleeding from the constant squeezing and collision between the adults and children. The pain went from the skin to the flesh and bone marrow!
No, he didnt want such a family. He wanted parents like Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi!

Chapter 849: Chapter 849-reuniting
Trantor: 549690339
At this time, Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi were in ecstasy.
The daughter they had lost for 20 years had been found!
Their daughter was right under their noses, but they didnt even know!
Wu Zi held Zheng Lun and cried uncontrobly.Xixi, mom has been looking for you!
Zheng Luns throat was much better today. Although her voice was a little hoarse, she could finally speak.
In fact, she knew that Zheng Jing had been helping her find her biological parents. Zheng Jing didnt try to hide it from her and had even asked her about the details of her past abduction.
She couldnt remember anything in the past and couldnt provide any useful clues for Zheng Jing.
But today, her brother told her that she had found her biological parents. They were Gu qianyues parents, Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi!
How was that possible?
Zheng Lun was still in a daze two hours after she heard the news. She had always thought that her parents were poor people who treated her badly and even sold her out because she knew nothing but eating.
Could it be that she had remembered everything wrong?
Zheng Lun looked helplessly at PEI Xinhua who was sitting aside and wiping her tears. She called her subconsciously,Mom ...
PEI Xinhua quickly held her daughters hand and said excitedly,Lun, Im here, Im here!
Even though she had found her biological mother, Zheng Luns first reaction was still to call her by her name. She was still the closest to her. She had not raised this daughter in vain!
When Wu Zi heard her daughter call someone else mother, she felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife.
Gu Yingjie, who was standing behind Wu Zi with red eyes, was also very upset. His daughter was too distant from them!
Luckily, they had known the Zheng family for a long time and were quite close to Zheng Lun. Otherwise, Zheng Lun would have rejected them even more.
Wu Zi cried for a long time until her eyes were swollen. But when she saw her daughters beautiful appearance, she smiled with tears in her eyes.
She held PEI Xinhuas hand and said in the most sincere tone,Xin Hua, many thanks for taking care of Xixi for so many years! I know that youve always treated her like your own daughter. Ive always thought that she was your biological daughter!
Wu Zi was really grateful to PEI Xinhua. She had been friends with PEI Xinhua for five or six years. She knew very well what kind of person PEI Xinhua was.
Her daughter was like a little princess in the Zheng family. She was doted on by the whole family and had never been wronged.
Her daughter did not suffer and had been enjoying her happiness. Wu Zi felt much better. What she was most afraid of was that her daughter would be defiled by human traffickers and sold to poor ces to be a child bride for those who could not get a wife.
PEI Xinhua looked at Wu Zis tearful face, and her own tears could not stop falling.
She could understand Wu Zis feelings. After all, she had also lost her daughter. That kind of suffering could make a person age a lot overnight.
Aiya, lets not cry anymore. This is a good thing! PEI Xinhua wiped her tears and then went to wipe Wu Zis tears.Dont worry. Lun has never been wronged in my family. She is the baby of our family! Her father and brother had doted on her so much that she had lost weight because she was sick. She used to be quite chubby! Oh, oh, oh, oh, right, have you seen it before?
Wu Zi was still crying, but she kept nodding her head.
She knew that Zheng Lun had indeed been a little fatter and had grown up into a girl.
She had had a deep impression of Zheng Lun since the first time she met her. She liked this girl, so she had wanted her son to marry her without any hesitation.
She didnt like to make all kinds of desserts before, but she learned from the pastry chef for a long time and made different kinds of desserts for Zheng Lun when she found that Zheng Lun liked them.
It turned out that she had been making desserts for her own daughter all this time!
After so many twists and turns, fate had finally allowed her to meet her daughter!
Seeing that Wu Zi was still crying, PEI Xinhua took Zheng Luns hand and said,Lun, this is your mother. Quick, call her mom!
She had been afraid that Zheng Lun would be taken away by her mother and forget about her foster mother. But seeing Wu Zi crying like this, she couldnt bear it and forgot all her worries.
But Zheng Lun couldnt say it.
She had only called PEI Xinhua mother before, but she had always called Wu Zi Auntie Wu. She was not used to being called mother all of a sudden.
She still felt that she had made a mistake. How could Wu Zi and Gu Yingjie be her parents?
Wasnt her name Qiqi?
Their daughter was not called Xixi!
Zheng Lun refused to shout. PEI Xinhua was very anxious, but there was nothing he could do. She knew Zheng Lun well. She was timid and it was hard for others to get into her heart. It was hard for her to make friends. She couldnt ept it at all if she had to call someone else mom.
Seeing that Zheng Lun was only intimate with PEI Xinhua, Wu Zi was a little disappointed, but she soon became excited again.
It didnt matter what he called her, and it didnt matter if he didnt get close to her. All she needed to know now was that her daughter was still alive and well, and that her adoptive parents and brother loved her so much. That was enough!
Nothing was more important than his daughters happiness.
Luckily, Zheng Lun was a soft-hearted girl. She felt bad seeing Wu Zi crying so hard.
She reached out and gently wiped away Wu Zis tears. She asked a little nervously,Please dont cry. I was thinking, could there be a mistake? Maybe I just look like your daughter?
She looked very much like the original Zheng Lun, and even had the same voice. It seemed possible that someone else looked like her too!
Zheng Jing looked at his sisters confused and suspicious eyes and felt helpless.
Did this brother of his really look so unreliable? How could she just randomly pick a person and say that they were her biological parents?
Lun, we have done the DNA test. There cant be any mistake. Didnt I show you the report just now?
I ... I dont understand ... Zheng Lun was a little embarrassed.
The report was filled with strings of letters and symbols, and several pages of data. The test results were only a summary of the results with a long string of technical terms. It did not say that she was the Gu couples biological mother!
Seeing that Zheng Lun didnt believe their rtionship, Wu Zi suddenly said,Lun, is there another round pink birthmark on your sole?
No. Zheng Lun shook her head in confusion.
Why dont I remember that Lun has a birthmark? PEI Xinhua also said.
She had bathed Zheng Lun many times and washed her feet many times, but she didnt find any birthmark on her feet.
Wu Zi wiped her tears and revealed a confident smile.There must be some, but you didnt notice it. Lun, take out your left foot.
Chapter 850: No evidence
Chapter 850: No evidence
Zheng Lun hesitated for a while, but still extended her leg to Wu Zi.
She really wanted to know if Wu Zi was her biological mother.
She had been in the Zheng family for so many years, but she rarely thought about her background because she had been living a happy life. She had always forgotten that Zheng qinan and PEI Xinhua were not her biological parents.
She had a good impression of the Gu couple. She had only seen Gu Yingjie twice, but she had seen Wu Zi many times and had eaten all kinds of delicious desserts made by her.
If Wu Zi was her biological mother, wouldn''t she be too happy?
Could she have such a good mother?
Wu Zi held her daughter''s white and tender feet, her heart full of emotions. She never thought that she would be able to touch her daughter one day. She still remembered her daughter''s appearance when she was young clearly.
Wu Zi moved Zheng Lun''s leg in front of Zheng Lun and PEI Xinhua, and then pressed her white sole with her thumb. After several times, a round pink birthmark appeared on the sole of Zheng Lun''s foot.
Although it was a little blurry, it was undoubtedly a birthmark.
"There really is a birthmark!" Zheng Lun was a little surprised.
Wu Zi watched as the faint birthmark gradually disappeared. She said softly with a gentle expression,""This birthmark was very obvious when you were born, but as you grew up, it became lighter and lighter. It might be hidden deep under your skin. Every time you press it hard, the birthmark will appear. I''ve been looking for you for so many years, and I''ve always used this method to identify you. "
PEI Xinhua felt very magical. This was indeed her biological mother! How did he know about such a confidential matter? it was like he was shooting a movie!
But even if Zheng Lun didn''t have a birthmark, she was still Wu Zi''s daughter. After all, the DNA test results were there. Zheng Jing couldn''t possibly acknowledge Zheng Lun''s family just like that.
Zheng Lun had already believed that Wu Zi was her biological mother, but it was different to ept it.
It was still a little difficult for her to call her mother.
Moreover, she always felt that PEI Xinhua would be sad if she called someone else ''mother''.
Wu Zi didn''t force Zheng Lun. She had been in contact with Zheng Lun for many times. She knew that Zheng Lun might seem easy to talk to, but it was hard for others to get into her heart.
After crying for a while, Wu Zi and PEI Xinhua finally calmed down. They sat side by side and talked to each other like sisters.
Because they had amon daughter, the two women''s feelings for each other grew. They started to talk about the interesting things that they knew about Zheng Lun when she was a child.
Gu Yingjie was also very excited about finding his daughter. He and Wu Zi had never had any children after giving birth to Zheng Lun. Even after he adopted Gu qianyue, he still felt empty in his heart.
They were very nice to Gu qianyue, but they always felt that their son was not close to them.
He and Wu Zi had doubted Gu Yingjie''s age more than once. A normal seven-year-old child could not be as observant and observant as Gu qianyue.
No matter how hard they tried, they couldn''t win Gu qianyue''s heart.
After feeling down for a while, they didn''t dwell on this matter anymore. After all, they weren''t biological parents, and it was normal for the child to not acknowledge them.
Now that he had finally found his biological daughter, but his daughter did not acknowledge them either, which made Gu Yingjie very upset.
However, he was a man after all. His feelings were not as exposed as Wu Zi ''s, so he looked calm at this moment.
He would dote on Zheng Lun more in the future and get her approval.
Zheng qinan and Gu Yingjie had only met once. The two of them usually had their own circles and were busy with their own things, so they were not close.
But now, they felt like a family, because Zheng Lun had to call both of them dad.
The two of them sat not far away and talked in a low voice. Zheng qinan called Zheng Jing over and asked him to greet Gu Yingjie.
Zheng Jing had shown his best side and won Gu Yingjie''s praise very soon.
Men usually liked young men who were masculine and upright, especially Zheng Jing, who had graduated from the world''s top military school and was now the best criminal Police officer in A city. He had cracked countless criminal cases and had been awarded by the mayor and even the governor. Gu Yingjie couldn''t be more satisfied with Zheng Jing!
Seeing that Gu Yingjie was satisfied with him, Zheng Jing let out a sigh of relief.
Of course, he had to perform well in front of his future father-inw, otherwise Gu Yingjie wouldn''t trust him enough to let him take care of Zheng Lun.
Zheng qinan was very clear about his son''s little schemes. He despised his son for being so attentive to Gu Yingjie. He had never enjoyed this kind of enthusiasm even as his father!
Hmph, he really forgot about his father when he had a wife. He only cared about showing off in front of his father-inw and didn''t even know how to pour him tea!
Gu Yingjie had no idea what Zheng Jing had in mind about Zheng Lun. He only thought that Zheng Lun had been Living a Good Life in the Zheng family all these years and that Zheng Jing was very protective of his sister. He would buy her anything she wanted. So he was very satisfied with Zheng Jing.
The atmosphere on this side was just right, but Wu Zi''s side fell into silence because of her words.
"Didn''t you say that Lun went to Germany to see a friend? Why was he hospitalized? Are you feeling ufortable?"
Zheng Lun looked pale and her voice was hoarse, but nothing was wrong. Wu Zi had thought that she had just caught a cold, but she saw Zheng Lun spit out blood after a few coughs.
Then, she noticed that the tissue in the small trash can beside the bed was stained with blood!
What kind of illness did she have?
Zheng Jing had also heard Wu Zi''s question and they stopped talking.
Zheng Jing stood up and walked to Wu Zi. He said in a serious tone,"Aunt Wu, Lun is not sick. She is poisoned!"
"What? Poisoned?"
"Yes, and the one who poisoned her was Gu qianyue. He wanted to kill Lun."
Wu Zi suddenly stood up from the chair, and her face was extremely pale.""This is impossible! Qianyue is not that kind of child!"
Gu Yingjie''s face was also full of shock. He walked quickly to Zheng Jing and said,"Jing, do you have any evidence?"
Zheng Jing shook his head after a moment of hesitation. We don''t have any evidence. Gu qianyue destroyed all the evidence."
"How can we say that it was qianyue who poisoned Lun without evidence? Could this be a misunderstanding? Qianyue was brought up by us. Although he''s not very cheerful, he''s a good kid. He''s kind and likes to raise small animals. He''s not the kind of person who would harm others!"
Wu Zi couldn''t believe that her son, who she had raised for 20 years, would poison Zheng Lun. In her mind, Gu qianyue was also a timid person. How could he kill someone?
Chapter 851
Chapter 851: Exposed (1)
Trantor: 549690339
Gu Yingjie also didnt believe that Gu qianyue would hurt Zheng Lun, because it was totally unnecessary!
Qianyue and Lun are so close and he nned to marry her. Why would he poison her? He often praised Lun at home and said that he meant no harm to her. And she always made him| Mom made desserts for Lun and he has remembered all of Luns preferences.
Zheng Jing had already expected that the Gu couple would not believe that Gu qianyue had poisoned Zheng Lun. So he was not too surprised after hearing what they said.
Gu qianyue put the poison in the snack and gave it to Lun so that she could be slowly poisoned.
Wu Zi felt that this was too ridiculous!
Just a moment ago, she was still immersed in the joy of finding her daughter, but the next moment, she was told that her adopted son wanted to kill her own daughter!
Nonsense, this is impossible!
She didnt believe it, or rather, she didnt want to believe it was true.
Zheng Jing exined to the couple patiently and also to Zheng Lun what had happened in the past.
Gu qianyue lied to you that Lun is gone, didnt he? But in fact, Lun was still alive and well. Why would he lie to you? How did he get that small silver lock in his hand? He had recognized Lun long ago. He has tried to kill Lun several times!
Lun cant remember many things in the past. She was too young at that time, but Gu qianyue still remembers! I found Gu qianyues biological parents and found out that hes not twenty-seven years old, but thirty-one. In other words, when you adopted him, he was already eleven years old. He hid his true age!
In the past ten years, Gu qianyue has never been close to anyone but Lun. Why is that? Was it because Lun was beautiful and kind? No, what you dont know is that he has already done a paternity test for Lun and you! He has known that Lun is your daughter for a long time, but he has never said anything about it. Isnt that enough to exin the problem?
Wu Zi was so shocked by Zheng Jings words that she could not even stand straight.
Gu qianyue had done a DNA test for them?
He was definitely lying when he said that Zheng Lun was dead, but it didnt matter anymore. The important thing was, did he really poison Zheng Lun?
And he wanted to kill Zheng Lun after knowing her real identity?
No, I have to ask Qian Yue personally! I want to hear what he has to say!
Wu Zi clutched her husbands arm tightly. She felt as if her heart was being torn apart.
She had always known that Gu qianyue didnt want them to find their daughter or have any other children, because he was afraid that he would be abandoned.
However, that was just a little selfish of an abandoned child. He was so gentle and harmless, how could he possibly kill someone!
This was the son that they had raised for twenty years, and they loved him so much!
He already had feelings for a kitten or a puppy, let alone a son! Now that she heard others say that he had killed someone, Wu Zis first reaction was to defend him.
Zheng Lun was their daughter and they couldnt let her suffer. But Gu qianyue was also their son. Although he was adopted, they couldnt wrong him.
Gu Yingjie was more rational than Wu Zi. Although he didnt want to believe that Gu qianyue would kill someone, he also thought that Zheng Jing, as a Criminal Police officer, would not say such things.
He furrowed his brows and suddenly asked,Jing, werent you with qianyuest night? Where is he?
Shes in the hospital,
Hes here?
Yes, I injured himst night. I didnt want you to worry, so I didnt let him go home. I sent him to the hospital for treatment. Zheng Jing lied to his future inws without even blinking.
Luckily, he didnt kill Gu qianyue directly. Otherwise, he wouldnt be able to answer to the Gu couple!
He had to let this couple know what kind of ungrateful person he had raised. Otherwise, they would still insist that his son was a good man and that Gu qianyue had been wronged. It would be bad for both Zheng Lun and him in the future.
If you want to see him, Ill Take You There.
Zheng Jing said as he started to walk out. When he was out of the door, he said,But, Gu qianyues biological parents are here too. Its a good opportunity for your families to meet. You might be able to get to know each other better.
Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi were both stunned by Zheng Jings words.
Qianyues biological parents are here too?
This was too unexpected!
They were not mentally prepared at all!
Gu qianyue had never mentioned anything about his biological parents. When they asked him about them asionally, he said that he couldnt remember them. Therefore, they had never helped him find his parents.
They all thought that Gu qianyue would be their son for the rest of his life and would never go to his parents again.
Now that they had found their daughter and Gu qianyue had found his parents, they shouldnt avoid them.
The couple looked at each other for a long time before they finally said firmly,Alright, its time to meet them!
They followed Zheng Jing to a Ward. Before they entered the door, they could already hear the shouting and yelling inside. The couple was shocked. Why did it sound like there were more than Gu qianyues parents in the ward? it was like there were dozens of people shouting in the ward!
The deafening sound was truly frightening.
However, it was even scarier after they entered!
As soon as Zheng Jing opened the door, a shoe flew towards Wu Zi. If Zheng Jing had not pped the stinky shoe away in time, it would have hit Wu Zis face.
However, Wu Zi couldnt care less about the shoe. She and Gu Yingjie were shocked by the chaotic situation in the ward!
In the small Ward, there were at least 20 people surrounding Gu qianyue, beating and scolding him in a dialect. Each of them had a fierce face, ragged clothes, unkempt hair, and a fierce look, as if they were going to eat people!
The ward was in chaos. No one paid any attention to Zheng Jing and the other two when they came in. They were all busy hitting each other.
Stop dreaming! The Gu familys money will belong to me, the boss, in the future. Youre just a married daughter, and you still want to share the money? Go to hell, Ill kick you to death!
Im little Hais second sister, why cant I get a share of the Gu familys money? Little Hais adoptive parents are both professors, so they must be very rich. Arent you afraid of bursting your stomach by taking all of it for yourself? Bah! What the hell! Dont think I dont know that you were the one who persuaded little hai to follow the human traffickers! You didnt have a good heart back then!
Chapter 852: Exposed (2)
Chapter 852: Exposed (2)
"So what if I know! If I didn''t make him follow the human traffickers, if I didn''t teach him how to win the favor of the rich, would the Gu family want him? If I didn''t teach him how to distinguish the rich and how to set traps for others, would he be able to live in such a good house and wear such good clothes? Everything he has now is because of me, so he must give me his family property in the future!"
"Nonsense, it has nothing to do with you! Back then, the human trafficker had already said that it was little hai who was smart. He had stolen someone else''s Silver lock and pretended to be the child''s good friend. Then, he lied and said that the Gu family''s child was dead. That was why the Gu family had bought the lock at a high price! He''s the one who has eyes, don''t think too highly of yourself!"
The woman''s high-pitched voice was heard by the three of them and they were all shocked.
So, this was the truth back then?
Wu Zi had suffered too much today! Her mind went nk when she heard that it was Gu qianyue who had caused her to miss her daughter.
Gu Yingjie held back his heartache for his daughter and his hatred for Gu qianyue. He held his wife, who was about to fall, and said through gritted teeth,""Zizi, you can''t fall. We have to get to the bottom of this! If it was really qianyue who caused us to be unable to find Xixi, if he really poisoned Xixi, we must seek justice for Xixi!"
He called his daughter''s nickname instead of Lun, because for him and Wu Zi, the name "Xi Xi" had been buried in their hearts for too long. The slightest touch would make their hearts bleed. They had lost their daughter by ident and spent 20 years to find her. They couldn''t let her suffer again!
If Gu qianyue had been lying to them and taking advantage of them, they wouldn''t even talk about family ties with him!
Wu Zi''s tears fell uncontrobly. She held her husband''s hand tightly and forced herself to be strong,""You''re right. We have to find out everything!"
On the bed, Gu qianyue was surrounded by six or seven children. Some were trying to get into his arms, some were lying on his back, holding his neck and refusing to let go. Some had nothing to hold on to, so they pulled his hair desperately. Two of the children each held one of his legs, trying to pull him out. His legs were almost broken by the two children!
The snow-white gauze wrapped around Gu qianyue''s arm had been stained with blood. His face was pale, and his forehead was covered in sweat. The anger and hatred in his eyes were clearly visible.
"Get lost, all of you get lost! If you don''t get lost, I''ll kill you all! I''m going to kill you all! All of you are worse than pigs and dogs, get lost! Don''t touch me!"
The killing intent in his eyes seemed to have materialized. It didn''t look like he was making an ordinary threat at all, but that he really wanted to kill those children.
Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi felt a chill in their hearts. Was this vicious person in front of them really the son they had raised for 20 years?
He used to be so obedient, so timid, and so loving to small animals, but now he wanted to kill someone?
Even if those children had gone a little overboard, they were still children who were not even ten years old. They did not know anything and had only been taught badly by the adults!
Even if an underaged child killed someone, they didn''t need to bear any criminal responsibility. It was because they were too young and didn''t know anything, so it was unreasonable to sentence them.
This cruel and heartless man in front of them was not the Gu qianyue that they knew!
There were too many people around, and it was too noisy. Gu qianyue didn''t even notice that the Gu couple hade in. His hand was seriously injured, and his fingers were broken. Although they had been reattached today, they couldn''t heal so quickly. So, he didn''t dare to use his hands, but only kicked the two kids who were pulling his legs.
Children were not as strong as adults. Even though Gu qianyue was injured, he still kicked the two children off the bed.
The two kids fell to the ground and cried loudly, but Gu qianyue ignored them. He lowered his head and bit the other kid who was pulling his hair.
Gu qianyue had bitten off a big piece of meat from the child''s tender shoulder!
Fresh blood gushed out, and the child immediately screamed in pain,""Mom, he bit me! It hurts!"
However, no one cared about him at all.
His parents were fighting with their brothers and sisters. If they killed one of them, they would lose a share of the Gu family''s assets. What was a child? if he lost a piece of flesh, so be it. It wasn''t like he couldn''t grow back! The children in the ravine were often bitten by animals such as wild boars and snakes, but no one cared about it.
The child was in so much pain, but no one cared. He immediately got his revenge. He pounced on Gu qianyue with the fierceness he usually had when he fought with others, bit his ear, and refused to let go!
Gu qianyue was in so much pain that he almost fainted!
He could no longer care that his fingers had not recovered. He clenched his fist and hit the child''s head with all his might.
After he knocked the child out, he realized that his right ear had been bitten off! He was in so much pain just now that he didn''t even know that his ear had fallen off!
Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi almost vomited when they saw such a bloody and cruel scene. They were two university professors who had been teaching and educating people their entire lives!
Was he still human?
This wasn''t a human at all!
How could humans fight in such a way! How could humans fight with their teeth?
Gu qianyue was like a vicious Wolf. He had no sense of reason, kindness, or humanity!
The couple finally believed that Gu qianyue had indeed poisoned Zheng Lun and that he could kill people.
Wu Zi''s face had turned pale. If Gu Yingjie and Zheng Jing had not been standing on her sides to protect her, she would have turned around and run away.
Seeing that his ear was bitten off, Gu qianyue flew into a rage. He kicked the unconscious child until he kept vomiting blood. Then, he kicked the child to the ground.
When he wanted to bite the child who was strangling his neck to death, he suddenly saw Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi standing quietly against the door in the fighting crowd.
He immediately froze in the middle of biting!
When did they arrive?
How much did they see?
What the hell did Zheng Jing say to them? why were they looking at him with such a strange and distant look? It was as if they didn''t recognize him!
"No, no, no, dad, mom! Please listen to my exnation, don''t misunderstand me! I will always be your son! You can''t abandon me! These people have nothing to do with me. I don''t know them!"

Trantor: 549690339
Gu qianyues voice was drowned in the noise. He was so anxious that he wanted to get out of bed and exin to the Gu couple, but the kids held him tightly and wouldnt let him go.
Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi were separated by the fighting crowd, standing by the door and looking at him. Their feelings were extremelyplicated now, hatred, heartache, shock, and confusion.
After an unknown period of time, the beating and scolding in the ward became more and more intense, and screams rose and fell.
The couples hearts had gradually cooled down. Gu Yingjie held his wifes shoulder and gently led her out of the ward.
Uncle, aunty, do you believe that Gu qianyue was the one who caused Luns death? Zheng Jing followed them out.
The couple stood in the corridor in silence. They felt that they were responsible for Gu qianyues condition.
Of course, they hated Gu qianyue. Gu qianyue was so cunning at such a young age. He not only cheated them of their feelings, but also hid Zheng Luns whereabouts. Otherwise, they would have found their daughter long ago.
Zheng Jing told her in a low voice about how Zheng Lun had suffered in the hands of human traffickers when she was young, and then about the pain that Zheng Lun had suffered when she was poisoned.
He had to let his soft-hearted parents know that Zheng Lun had been tortured so much because of Gu qianyue. Otherwise, they would definitely let Gu qianyue go.
The couple didnt know that Zheng Lun had been forced to be a beggar by human traffickers, nor did they know how dangerous it was when Gu qianyue poisoned her.
Within a day, the two of them had received too much shocking information. At this moment, their minds were in a mess, and they could not think at all.
Zheng Jing had said all that he needed to say and then drove them home.
Zheng Lun stayed in the hospital for two more days and then went home.
She was a little confused and unfamiliar with her biological parents, but she still liked Zheng qinan and PEI Xinhua. After all, they had been together for twenty years and were very familiar with each other. Shepletely forgot Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi. She only remembered that Zheng qinan liked to carry her on his shoulder and y with her when she was young.
The Gu couple didnte to the Zheng family to see Zheng Lun these days, not because they didnt want to, but because they couldnt go out at all.
Gu qianyue refused to stay in the hospital, so he took a taxi back to the Gu familys house. As a result, his rtives all came to visit him!
The Gu familys small vi was quickly taken over. They climbed into the vis courtyard wall valiantly, destroyed all the flowers and nts in the garden, smashed the visnding window, and fought to snatch the Gu familys things before running out.
The LCD TV, the refrigerator full of food, and the automatic washing machine that was still washing clothes were all carried away by Gu qianyues parents and siblings!
Children couldnt carryrge household appliances, so they grabbed small items such as nkets, vases, and antique decorations.
Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi were so frightened by their Bandit-like behavior that they only recovered after more than half an hour!
What era was this? how could someone still dare to break into someone elses house and Rob them in broad daylight? This wasnt the old society! This was not a refugee camp!
For Gu qianyues sake, the couple didnt want to start a conflict with those people. However, seeing that their house had been emptied, and some people even started to Rob their wallets and cell phones, they finally couldnt bear it anymore and called the police.
The current director of the Public Security Bureau was Zheng qinan, and Zheng Jing was the captain of the criminal Police. Within a few minutes, Zheng Jing had arrived with his men.
His inws had been robbed, how terrible!
Zheng Jing had deployed the best equipment and police force of the criminal Police team. Not only had he brought helicopters, but he had also deployed arge number of police cars to help retrieve all the lost items.
Two hourster, apart from the broken vases and antiques, all the lost items of the Gu family were found.
All the troublemakers were taken back to the police station, including Gu qianyue.
It was Zheng Jings first time at the Gu family. He stood in the leeched living room without any sense of restraint or difort.
Uncle Gu, aunty Wu, take a look and see if theres anything else youre missing. Then, calcte your losses and the Bureau will ask them topensate you. I hope they didnt scare you. If theres something like this in the future, just call me directly and let me handle it.
The afternoon sun was warm and bright. It shone on Zheng Jings handsome and righteous face, making him look stunning.
He was dressed in the dark blue uniform of the criminal Police unit, with a pistol in the gun pouch at his waist. He was also wearing ck military boots. His upright posture and calm demeanor made people trust and rely on him from the bottom of their hearts.
This Zheng Jing was a sharp contrast to Gu qianyue, who had just been dragged away by the criminal Police.
His voice was steady and powerful, with the unique maturity and charm of a man in his thirties, which made Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi finally calm down from the panic of more than 20 people.
Gu Yingjie took a step forward and patted Zheng Jings shoulder. He said with relief and gratitude,Jing, thanks to you, your aunt and I didnt know what to do just now! Weve found everything, but as for the other things that were smashed, well just forget about it!
He and Wu Zi were both university professors. They had only dealt with books and students their entire lives. They had never seen such a chaotic and terrifying scene!
Gu qianyues rtives were no different from thugs! They were really frightened just now!
Gu qianyue was also like a crazy person, shouting and screaming, but to no avail.
As soon as Zheng Jing arrived, the situation was under control. Not only did he ensure the couples safety, but he also found all the things that had been lost. This made the couple look at him in a new light.
The Zheng family had raised a good son!
Okay, if uncle and aunty dont want to pursue it, then so be it. However, ording to thew, they will still receive the punishment they deserve. These people were brought back by Gu qianyue, so he will be punished as well.
Zheng Jing had already known that this couple were kind and soft-hearted people. He thought that Zheng Lun must have inherited her personality from them.
However, Zheng Jing would not be soft-hearted.
That group of people, with the exception of the children, would all be severely punished!
Breaking into someone elses house to steal things, was there still anyw! He treated the Gu family as his own backyard!
Although these people had been brought to A city by Zheng Jing, his original intention was for them to deal with Gu qianyue, not to cause trouble for his future inws.
Zheng Jing felt a little guilty. If it had not been for him, this honest and kind couple would not have been so frightened.
Before he left, he said solemnly,Uncle, Auntie, I will transfer Luns ount to your family in a while.
Chapter 854
Chapter 854
Household transfer?
The couple was stunned.
"Both your parents are willing to transfer Lun''s household register?" Wu Zi asked in disbelief.
She had been too embarrassed to mention this to the Zheng family. After all, Zheng Lun had been with the Zheng family for so many years and she had seen how much PEI Xinhua loved Zheng Lun. She was afraid that PEI Xinhua would be angry if Zheng Lun changed her household register.
He had not expected that Zheng Jing would suggest this today.
Wu Zi was both surprised and delighted!
Zheng Jing nodded with a smile."Yes, they all agreed. You are Lun''s biological parents after all. Although my parents can''t bear to leave Lun, they can''t deprive you of your right to be her parents." However, Lun might have to live with us for the time being. She is timid and can hardly fall asleep in an unfamiliar environment. "
"Of course, of course. It doesn''t matter. Lun can sleep wherever she likes."
Wu Zi was so happy that her eyes were filled with tears.
As long as her daughter could return to their household register, she was already very satisfied!
She happily asked Zheng Jing to stay for lunch, but Zheng Jing turned her down."I still have to hurry back to the station to take a look at those people I just arrested. I''ll definitelye back to freeload food in the future, so don''t think I''ve eaten too much!"
"How could that be? the more you eat, the better it proves that auntie''s cooking skills are good!"
Wu Zi was smiling so much that her eyes turned into crescents. She liked Zheng Jing more and more. She even wanted to take him away from PEI Xinhua and make him her son!
Zheng Jing was also very satisfied with his own performance. He felt that he had to give himself a hundred points today.
He was all smiles when he got home. Both Mr. And Mrs. Gu liked him very much and he was one step closer to marrying Zheng Lun. All he needed to do now was to transfer Zheng Lun''s ount to them and tell everyone that Zheng Lun was not his biological sister!
PEI Xinhua saw her son walking in with a smile and asked in confusion,""I heard from your father that the Gu family was robbed by more than 20 people. Why do you look so happy?"
Zheng Lun stood behind PEI Xinhua on her tiptoes and looked at him curiously.
Zheng Jing stopped smiling and said seriously,"Mom, you''re wrong! When did Iugh? my expression just now was clearly serious! But don''t worry, we''ve already gotten back the things we were fighting for. With your son here, twenty people are nothing! The prison can fit more than 200 people!"
PEI Xinhua knew her son like the back of her hand. She knew that something happy must have happened to him. Otherwise, he would not be so happy.
Now, he was even denying it righteously, which made him even more suspicious!
Sheughed and scolded,"nonsense!" I haven''t reached the point where my eyes are blurry yet. When I''m really old, are you going to lie to me every day? However, it was good that they had gotten back what they wanted. Gu qianyue''s rtives were so annoying! No wonder he''s such a jerk, he''s a bad person from the start!"
PEI Xinhua got angry as she spoke. She took Zheng Lun''s white and tender hands and said,"Lun has been so busy these days that she has almost lost her life! Hurry up and lock him up in prison and give him a death sentence or something. Don''t let him out and cause trouble again! I was going to beat him up myself, but since you have avenged Lun, I can also vent my anger!"
Zheng Lun also hated Gu qianyue. She had never hated anyone in her life and always thought of people in a positive way. It was the first time she hated someone so much.
Because she was really being tortured! She didn''t want to experience that kind of pain again.
However, she still smiled andforted PEI Xinhua,""Mom, don''t be sad. I''m fine now, aren''t I? He will receive the punishment he deserves. Big brother will definitely not let him off easily. "
As she said this, she looked at Zheng Jing with her bright eyes. Zheng Jing''s heart skipped a beat when he saw her beautiful face. He said with a smile, "That''s for sure, I have many ways to deal with such people!"
PEI Xinhua felt much better after beingforted by her children. She was about to take them to dinner when Zheng Jing said seriously,"Mom, shouldn''t we transfer Lun''s ount to the Gu family?"
PEI Xinhua was stunned by Zheng Jing''s words. She felt as if her heart had been pierced through, cold and painful.
Zheng Jing knew that she was upset, so he went over to hold her and said with a smile, "Don''t panic. Even if Lun has transferred her registered residence, she is still a member of our family and she is still living in our house!"
Today, he had told the Gu couple that his parents had agreed to the transfer of household register. As for the time, PEI Xinhua had not agreed at all, and Zheng qinan had only let them know a little.
How could they bear to let Zheng Lun transfer her household register to the Gu family so quickly?
The household register was a symbol of home! Zheng Lun had been transferred to the Gu family, so she was now a member of the Gu family. Although she was a member of the Gu family, PEI Xinhua felt much more at ease now that she was registered under the Zheng family.
PEI Xinhua leaned on her son''s broad and strong shoulders and soon burst into tears.
She hated Zheng Jing so much now!
She had sent Zheng Lun away in such a hurry just so that she could marry her, regardless of how sad her mother was.
It''s said that a son forgets his mother after marrying a wife. This son hasn''t even married a wife yet and has already thrown his mother away!
But Zheng Lun was even more filial. She couldn''t bear to see her cry, so sheforted her in a hurry,"Mom, don''t cry, don''t be sad, I won''t leave! I won''t transfer my ount, I''ll stay at our house! You''ve raised me for twenty years, and I''ve always treated you as my biological mother! I''ll always be your daughter!"
Her daughter was so sensible that PEI Xinhua pushed her son away and held Zheng Lun in her arms. She cried,"You brat, I''ve raised you for nothing. Get out of here, you''re not allowed to eat lunch! You''re not as sensible as your sister! As expected, a daughter is a mother''s sweet little cotton jacket, while a son is a debt owed in his previous life!"
Zheng Jing didn''t know whether tough or cry. He lied without blushing."You won''t be able to find such an outstanding son like me even if you look for antern. Just now, at the Gu family, uncle and Auntie liked me so much and kept praising me. They even insisted on having me stay for a meal. I said that I woulde back to have a meal with you, but I rejected both of them. You must be my stepmother!"
PEI Xinhua burst intoughter and pped Zheng Jing''s back."Your eyes and nose look so much like mine, and you still dare to say that I''m your stepmother? you really don''t want to eat anymore! Hurry up and wash your hands, we''ll have dinnerter!"
"No, you haven''t agreed to Lun''s transfer yet! If you don''t agree, I won''t wash my hands and I won''t eat!" Zheng Jing lied to his mother.
Chapter 855: Im fine with being your son
Chapter 855: I''m fine with being your son
PEI Xinhua did not take it seriously at all."Well, Lun, the food is getting cold. Let''s go for lunch. Your brother said that he won''t eat it, and your father won''te back for lunch this afternoon. All the good food will belong to us!"
Zheng Lun held PEI Xinhua''s arm and said with a soft smile,"Okay, mom, we have to eat them all. We can''t leave any behind. It''s a waste of food!"
Zheng Jing was ignored by the two women and stood alone in the living room.
He shook his head helplessly and turned to the bathroom to wash his hands. He was ready to take the risk of PEI Xinhua pulling his ears and go to eat.
He would talk to his parents about the household register transfer tonight. Although they didn''t want to leave Zheng Lun, they were reasonable people and would return her to the Gu family eventually.
After lunch, Zheng Jing drove to the criminal Police unit.
It was reasonable to say that a small case like robbing others ''property was not under the jurisdiction of the criminal Police. This was the responsibility of the police.
But Zheng Jing had taken over the responsibility. The police were happy to have one less trouble and the criminal Police had more people to deal with. They were all in high spirits.
There had been too few criminal cases recently, and the public security of A city was too good. They had no ce to use their skills! Just look at the neighboring B city, it''s chaotic every day. Murder and arson cases can be encountered as soon as theye out of the door. The criminal Police are busy, and the value of the city is vividly reflected!
When Zheng Jing arrived at the criminal Police unit, the gang of bandits had beenpletely subdued.
What they had done was considered a robbery, which had been a crime. Being detained was already the lightest punishment.
Zheng Jing didn''t care about Gu qianyue''s brothers and sisters. He had just talked to Gu qianyue''s parents and then released them. Of course, he wouldn''t let them go for nothing.
His heart was very cold and hard, and he would not be overflowing with sympathy just because someone looked pitiful.
Many people whomitted crimes were often very miserable and pitiful. So what? they still had to be sentenced!
As for Gu qianyue, Zheng Jing didn''t say a word to him. He just gave some orders to his men and put him in custody. With his physical condition, he would probably not live for more than a few days if he was locked up with other strong men.
After Gu qianyue''s parents were released, they were sent to the Gu family by Zheng Jing''s men.
That night, Wu Zi called Zheng Jing."Ah Jing, can you help me transfer qianyue''s ount?"
"What''s wrong, aunt Wu?"Zheng Jing asked, feigning ignorance.
Wu Zi sighed."Qianyue''s biological parents came today. They said that they want their son back. If we don''t agree, they''ll Sue us for child trafficking." I''ve discussed it with your uncle, and we''ve decided to let qianyue follow his biological parents! Our education seems to be a failure, he ..."
Wu Zi didn''t continue. She wanted to say that although Gu qianyue seemed to be very filial to them, he was always distant from them. Also, he had hurt Zheng Lun so many times that they couldn''t treat Gu qianyue the same way they used to.
Zheng Jing said immediately,"okay, aunt Wu, I will take care of this." "Don''t be sad. You''ve seen Gu qianyue''s ruthlessness. I''m really worried about him living with you in the future. It''s better to let him go back to his own home!" Although you will lose Gu qianyue in the future, you will still have Lun as your daughter! If you don''t mind, you can treat me as your son!"
Wu Zi''s heart had been empty at first, but when she heard what Zheng Jing said, she felt warm and said "yes" happily.
After she hung up, she felt that something was wrong.
She asked Gu Yingjie, who was beside her,"
"Honey, don''t you think that Zheng Jing is very friendly to us? It''s good like this, but I''m not used to it. When I went to the Zheng family, he was always so cold to me!"
Zheng Jing had thought that Gu qianyue was going to marry Zheng Lun, so he didn''t like Gu qianyue. Of course, he also didn''t like Wu Zi, who wanted Zheng Lun to be his daughter-inw.
Gu Yingjie was a schr. Although he did not have much scheming, he had lived for more than half of his life and was rtively clear about the ways of the world.
He looked at his wife, who was still a little innocent and lovely, and said with a smile,""It''s normal for his attitude to change. He used to see you as his sister''s mother-inw, but now he sees you as her mother. The difference is huge!"
Wu Zi still didn''t understand,"what do you mean?" Does he also treat me as his mother?"
Gu Yingjieughed and said,"yes!" Your conclusion is very correct! He''s treating us as his inws!"
"You mean, Zheng Jing ... Likes Lun?!" Wu Zi''s eyes widened.
Gu Yingjie nodded with a smile,"the way he looked at Lun was not like a brother, but like a lover!" Besides, he transferred Lun''s ount to our family in such a hurry. Do you think he is doing this for our sake? he just wants to marry Lun back as soon as possible! I''ve only just figured it out. This kid is really cunning!"
Wu Zi was dumbfounded. She had not expected Zheng Jing to have so many tricks up his sleeve. She just thought that Zheng Jing was really meticulous. No wonder he had protected Zheng Lun so well all these years!
When she had wanted Gu qianyue to marry Zheng Lun, Zheng Jing had been so mad.
She had never thought that two people who looked like biological siblings would develop such a different kind of rtionship!
She suddenly understood the reason why Pei Xinhua was in a hurry to get Zheng Lun married. She must have been afraid that something would happen to the brother and sister, so she wanted to separate them.
Wu Zi was silent for a while, and finally whispered,""Zheng Jing is a scheming man, but he is a decent man and will not do anything evil. Lun is too innocent and she needs someone like him to take care of her and give her advice. I think Zheng Jing is very suitable ... More suitable than qianyue. "
Gu Yingjie thought so too. He had been in contact with Zheng Jing for a few times and he liked this young man very much. He was mature, reliable, and responsible. He would be a good man to take care of the family.
The two of them were only brother and sister in name, so getting married would not hinder anything.
Moreover, after the transfer, the two of them would no longer be siblings in name.
Zheng Jing didn''t know that he had be the son-inw of the Gu couple so soon. He just felt that the couple seemed to like talking to him and observing him when they came to the Zheng family to see Zheng Lun''s life.
He didn''t dare to ck off at all and tried his best to show his good points, in case they objected to his rtionship with Zheng Lun.
Zheng Lun''s household register was finally transferred to the Gu family''s household register one monthter.
On the paper, her name was not Zheng Lun, but Gu Xi.
Chapter 856
Chapter 856: Chapter 856-shame, shame, shame
Trantor: 549690339
However, the Zheng family still called her Lun Lun, and only Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi would call her Xixi asionally.
Zheng Lun liked the two names very much. She had always thought that her name was Qiqi, but now she knew that her name was Xixi.
However, she felt that although the two words were written differently, the pronunciation was the same!
She couldnt distinguish between qi and xi, so she didnt feel any difference at all.
She didnt care much about her name, but she preferred to be called Xixi, because it seemed to show that she was not Zheng Jings biological sister and that their rtionship could be exposed to the public.
The rtives and friends of the Zheng family soon knew that Zheng Lun had found her biological parents. Many of them even called PEI Xinhua to ask for confirmation.
Although PEI Xinhua sounded calm, she was actually very sad, especially when Zheng Lun had been taken home by the Gu couple these days. The house was empty, and her heart felt empty as well.
She was sitting on the bed in Zheng Luns bedroom, tears streaming down her face. She didnt even notice Zheng Jing walking in.
Mom, Im sorry, its all my fault! Dont cry, I will go to the Gu family to pick Lun upter.
Zheng Jing knelt down in front of PEI Xinhua and wiped her tears gently.
In fact, he felt empty when Zheng Lun was not at home. He always felt that something important was missing in the house and he couldnt do anything in high spirits.
Now that he saw PEI Xinhua so sad, he felt even more terrible and med himself.
You brat, youre going around telling everyone that your sister isnt part of our family. Theyre all trying to find out about it. Dont you care about how I feel?
Zheng Jing apologized carefully.I was too impatient, mom. It is my fault. Beat me up to calm down.
He had to do this, otherwise, when he married Zheng Lun in the future, people would be even more surprised and more people would call PEI Xinhua.
When I got home, your sister was not there, and no one was calling me mom. I felt terrible, as if I had lost my daughter again. When your sister passed away, I felt like the sky was going to fall down. I didnt dare to sleep every day. Every time I slept, I would dream of your sisters pale little face and her pained expression.
PEI Xinhuas eyes were still red when she talked about her younger daughter. Zheng Jing also lowered his head involuntarily.
The loss of his younger sister was a heavy blow to the entire family. The lively and lovely little girl who followed him around every day would never wake up again.
I didnt feel much more at ease until I had Lun. They look so simr that I thought your sister had returned, so I slowly regained my spirit. I thought that I would be able to face it happily when she grew up and got married. But now I know that I feel terrible when Lun is not at home.
She patted her sons head lovingly and said calmly,Jing, you should marry Lun!
Zheng Jing raised his head suddenly and said in surprise and joy,Mom, you agree?
Yes, I agree. In fact, mom has always felt that no one can take good care of Lun except you. Shes an innocent and kind child, and she needs someone like you, whos full of bad ideas, to shelter her from the wind and rain. Im really happy that shes still living in our house and calling me mom!
Zheng Jing hugged PEI Xinhua and gave her a kiss.Mom, youre my real mother! Just you wait, I will go and pick Lun up now!
After he finished speaking, he lost his usual calmness and ran out anxiously.
PEI Xinhua disdainfully wiped off her sons saliva that was stuck on her face and muttered in dissatisfaction,As expected, a wife is more important than mom. He abandoned mom and went to find a wife!
But soon she was happy again. Zheng Lun was going to marry Zheng Jing. Although she still felt a little awkward, she was happy for some reason.
Their family of four could really be together forever!
When Zheng Jing took Zheng Lun out of the Gu family, Mr. And Mrs. Gu were a bit reluctant to let her go. They had been getting closer to Zheng Lun recently. Blood was a magical thing that could make them closer. Zheng Lun didnt like strangers, but she soon fell in love with them.
She was already used to calling them mom and dad.
Dad, mom, you should go home. If you miss me, you can go to the Zheng family to find me! I miss you guys, so I dont have to run around anymore. Look, my legs are getting thin from all the running!
Zheng Luns voice was soft and gentle. Even if she wasnt acting coquettishly, she still sounded like she was. She was usually lively and would joke with people she knew.
Wu Zi loved her so much that she smiled and said,Alright, as soon as you leave, your father and I will go to the Zheng familys house for a free meal. Tell your mother to prepare more food tonight!
It was a very new feeling to have two fathers and two mothers. Zheng Lun still found it very interesting. She was so happy with so many people who loved her.
Sure, mom will be very happy if you go!
After saying a few words, Zheng Lun got in the car and followed Zheng Jing back.
As soon as they got in the car, Zheng Jing fastened the seat belt for her and then took her soft little hand in his. With one hand on the steering wheel, they started driving slowly.
Zheng Lun was a little embarrassed.
Perhaps because of the change in her identity, her feelings for Zheng Jing had be more obvious.
In the past, when they did some intimate actions, she felt that it was what an older brother should do to his younger sister and that it was nothing.
But now, her heart would beat fast whenever Zheng Jing touched her.
Zheng Jing drove for a while and suddenly lowered his head to kiss Zheng Lun on the lips when she was not prepared. Then they separated and continued driving.
Zheng Luns white face suddenly turned red and she scolded,Brother, dont do anything stupid. Its too dangerous to drive!
Zheng Jing had been holding Zheng Luns hands, but they interlocked their fingers after kissing her.
Oh, baby, he said calmly,you might not know this, but I received special training in the military school. I can do other things while driving. Do you want to try?
[Treasure ... Treasure?]
Zheng Luns face turned red and even her ears were blushed.
When did her brother change the way he addressed her to be so ambiguous? shame, shame, shame!
She lowered her head, not daring to look into Zheng Jings eyes.I dont want to try it. You should drive properly!
Zheng Jing stopped the car and parked it by the roadside. Then he turned over and pressed Zheng Lun against the passenger seat. He bit her pink lips and started to kiss her wildly.
Chapter 857: The wedding invitation
Chapter 857: The wedding invitation
His hot breath spread in the car. Zheng Lun was infatuated with him.
She had not expected Zheng Jing to be so passionate and crazy today.
It had been a long time since they had been so intimate. She felt that her heart was beating too violently, as if it would jump out of her chest at any moment.
After a while, she finally regained her rationality.
"Brother, don''t ..."
Zheng Jing''s nose touched Zheng Lun''s nose and he said,"Lun, you don''t like it when I kiss you?"
"No..." Zheng Lun couldn''t deny her desire for Zheng Jing, but she couldn''t do it in this situation. There were so many people on this Street, but they were being so intimate in the car. Her little heart wouldn''t be able to take it.
Zheng Jing smiled. His silly girl was so honest.
Of course he knew that Zheng Lun liked his kiss. Her reaction just now had proven it.
He ran his fingers across Zheng Lun''s face, pinched her chin and said softly,"Mom has agreed to our marriage, Lun."
Zheng Lun''s beautiful eyes lit up."Is that so? I ... I ... I ... I can marry you?"
Happiness came too suddenly, and she felt as if fireworks were blooming in her mind.
Could she really be her brother''s wife?
Everything was like a dream!
Zheng Jing kissed her smooth forehead lovingly."Yes, you can marry me now. We can be together openly in the future. I''ll protect you forever!"
In fact, even though they were no longer biological siblings, there would still be rumors about them. But Zheng Jing didn''t care. He could give Zheng Lun a safe and warm home in the future. A little gossip was nothing as long as Zheng Lun wouldn''t be criticized by the public.
Now that his parents had agreed to their marriage, they would have the most powerful support. Together with Zheng Lun''s biological parents, the obstacles in their marriage would be gone.
Zheng Lun leaned into Zheng Jing''s arms and said gently,"Okay, big brother will protect me forever!"
She felt that she was the luckiest person in the world. Although she had the unfortunate experience of being a little beggar in her childhood, she had almost always lived in happiness after she grew up.
It had been her biggest wish to marry Zheng Jing and now it hade true.
The two of them went home happily. Zheng Lun ran into PEI Xinhua''s arms.
"Mom, I miss you so much! Why do I feel like I haven''t seen you for a long time? you didn''t even look for me, did you forget about me?"
When PEI Xinhua heard her daughter''s delicate voice, her heart melted. She held her daughter without any principles."Aiyo, it''s mom''s fault. I should have chased you to the Gu family and snatched you back! The next time theye to pick someone up, I''ll go with them!"
As soon as she finished speaking,ughter came from the door.""Xinhua, you are right. So, when you took Lun away, we followed you here! Don''t tell me you''re not going to cook?"
When PEI Xinhua saw that Gu Yingjie and Wu Zi were both here, she suddenly smiled and said,""Don''t worry, I''ll provide you with food and amodation! I''ll call qinan now and tell him to buy a whole cow for our guest when hees back from work!"
When Zheng qinan came back, although he didn''t bring back a cow, the trunk was filled with all kinds of ingredients, enough for the six of them to eat for several days!
The Zheng family''s servants were busy preparing dinner. Theyughed along and prepared dinner quickly.
After the dinner, Zheng Lun chatted with the others for a while and then went upstairs to sleep.
Zheng Jing didn''t care about the others ''eyes and followed Zheng Lun upstairs.
In this case, it was impossible for anything to happen between him and Zheng Lun, but he could at least hug and kiss her.
Zheng Lun had been living in the Gu family''s house for the past few days. Although he went to see her every day, he was very well-behaved in front of his inws and had never held hands with Zheng Lun. Now that they were finally back home, he wanted to spend more time with Zheng Lun.
After Zheng Jing had gone upstairs, Zheng qinan said seriously,"As you two can see, they have such a good rtionship. I think it''s better to let them get married soon! If Lun married ah Jing, she would definitely not suffer in the future! Xinhua and I also treat Lun as our daughter, which has been proven long ago. We will be even closer in the future!"
Gu Yingjie and his wife had already known about Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun, but they had been waiting for the Zheng family to bring it up.
She was the most suitable candidate to marry Zheng Jing and they had no reason to disagree.
The four of them quickly settled on this matter. Then, until midnight, they were still counting the dates with their lunar calendar. Marriage was a major event, so of course, they had to choose an auspicious day.
Zheng Jing didn''t stay in Zheng Lun''s room for too long. He was so attracted to Zheng Lun that he was afraid that he would lose control of himself.
As soon as he came out, he heard the four people in the living room downstairs talking about "good days" and so on. He couldn''t help but smile and then went back to his room to sleep.
A few dayster, the parents of both parties set the date for Xuanji to be August 18th, an auspicious day for marriage.
It was already the end of June, and there was less than two months left to prepare. The Zheng family and the Gu family were extremely busy. They had to prepare the things for the wedding and draw up the guest list to invite the friends and family of both sides to the wedding.
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun, who were about to get married, didn''t need to do anything. Their parents had taken care of everything except for the wedding dresses. They had the most free time.
So, Zheng Jing took Zheng Lun to Jing Yichen''s ce.
Jing Yichen had helped him a lot with Gu qianyue''s case. If he were to investigate on his own, he would not be able to get to the bottom of many things and would be held up.
Zheng Jing was grateful from the bottom of his heart. Now that he had the time, he went to the house with Zheng Lun to thank her and ... To give her the wedding invitation.
Jing Yichen''s expression didn''t change at all when he saw the wedding invitation. It was as if he had seen a piece of waste paper.
Zheng Jing knew Jing Yichen very well and knew that he was very indifferent to the outside world. So he was not embarrassed at all. He said with a smile,"Master Jing, you must attend our wedding!"
Zheng Lun felt a bit embarrassed. Although she had met Jing Yichen many times, they were no different from strangers. She was used to talking to Shangguan ning. Although Jing Yichen was handsome and perfect, she couldn''t stand his cold personality.
Only Shangguan ning could withstand Jing Yichen''s strong aura.
Chapter 858
Chapter 858: Cant control his son
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Yichen had no interest in such a boring thing as a wedding. He only cared about his own wedding, but never cared about other peoples wedding. He had even felt that it was a waste of time to attend Zhao Anans wedding.
But if he refused, Shangguan ning would definitely nag at him when she came back.
He nodded indifferently and spat out a single word,Yes.
Zheng Lun couldnt help but feel more embarrassed.
Zheng Jing was very happy and said excitedly, Thats great, thats great!
Mu Qing and Jing Yichen were probably the only two people in A city who could invite Jing Yichen to the wedding. It was difficult for the rest of the people to even see Jing Yichen, let alone get his support.
Fortunately, the awkwardness did notst long. Shangguan ning finally came back with Jing Rui.
Zheng Lun came forward immediately as if she had seen her Savior.Ning!
Lun, what are you doing here? Aiya, why didnt you tell me before you came? otherwise, I would havee back a long time ago!
Shangguan ning was very happy to see her good friend, but Jing Rui was not.Mom, youre back very early. You promised me that you could y in the sea for two hours, but youve only yed for an hour. Im at a disadvantage.
Shangguan ning patted his head and threatened,If you dare to go deeper in the future, Ill never bring you to y again!
Jing Rui strode over to Jing Yichen and said in the same calm tone as Jing Yichen,Oh, its fine. My dad will take me there.
Jing Yichen took out a towel and wiped off the sand and water from his sons hair. He said calmly,Where are you going? I can apany you to Mars,
Shangguan ning was furious. Her son was getting older and better at angering her.
However, even if she could not control her son, she could control her husband!
Yichen, you cant take him with you!
Jing Yichen nodded without any hesitation.Alright, Ill listen to you! Im not going!
Jing Rui sighed like a little man.Dad, can you not be so obedient to your wife? Its very embarrassing, and there are other people here. Arent you afraid of damaging your great image?
Jing Yichen threw a sharp look at Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun. Im embarrassing?
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun had been brother and sister for many years. They waved their hands in unison and said in unison,Absolutely not!
Jing Yichen looked at his son calmly.You heard that? My image is still very impressive.
Im not as thick-skinned as you, Jing Rui said helplessly.You Win Again!
He admired his father so much, but there were also times when he was childish, and there was also a side of him that he didnt admire as much as he was strict with his wife!
At home, it was fine to offend his father, but he could still find his mother to back him up. However, if he offended his mother, he definitely could not find his father to back him up, because his father would definitely side with his mother! The punishment would be doubled!
Seeing his sons helpless look, Jing Yichen said calmly,In the future, if you are more powerful than me, you will be able to resist. But now, you can only obey.
After he finished speaking, he picked up his son and walked to the bathroom. As he walked, he said,How many times have I told you? your mother is the eldest in our family. If you insist on challenging the eldests dignity, arent you just causing me trouble?
Lying on Jing Yichens shoulder, Jing Rui lowered his head to Shangguan ning.Boss, I was wrong! I wont go in the future!
Shangguan ning burst intoughter.Keep acting, father and son. Youve tricked me so many times behind my back, and now youre still saying such nice things. Maybe your dad will take you to the deep sea tomorrow! Im the one with the least status in our family!
Zheng Lun was very envious of the family of three who were bickering with each other. This was what a family should be like-lively, full of fun, warm and interesting!
Seeing the Father and son enter the bathroom, Shangguan ning asked Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun to take a seat.
Jing Yichen would never make tea or serve fruits to the guests. It was already good enough that he didnt drive them out.
Shangguan ning washed the fruits and made tea for them. When she sat down on the sofa, she found the wedding invitation card lying on the sofa.
She quickly opened it and saw the names Zheng Jing and Gu Xi on it. She was immediately happy.Are you two getting married? Thats great! I will definitely attend the wedding and prepare a big red packet for Lun!
Shangguan ning had heard from Jing Yichen that Zheng Lun had found her biological parents. She also knew that Zheng Luns original name was Gu Xi.
The two of them were finally getting married, and this made her very excited.
Zheng Lun smiled shyly.
Shangguan nings reaction was totally different from Jing Yichen s. She was so happy when she knew that they were getting married. She even said that she was going to attend the wedding without them asking.
This was the reaction that a normal person should have, but Jing Yichen ... Er ... Was not human!
Zheng Lun cursed in her heart.
Jing Yichen treated Shangguan ning in apletely different way than he treated other people. Sometimes she wondered if Jing Yichen had a split personality. It was said that the more talented a person was, the more likely he would have a split personality.
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun didnt stay for long. They left soon, because Jing Yichens cold aura made Zheng Lun feel ufortable.
Shangguan ning didnt feel her husbands strong aura at all. She put her head on Jing Yichens legs and started to read the red invitation card.
Jing Yichenbed her long hair with his fingers carefully. Her hair had grown long, soft and smooth, like the most beautiful silk.
Youre not allowed to dye your hair in the future.
That depends on your performance! Shangguan ning smiled at him.
I didnt perform well enough?
Before Shangguan ning could say anything, Jing Rui, who was eating grapes at the side, couldnt stand it anymore.If you guys show off your love like this, itll easily hurt the childs fragile heart!
After he finished speaking, he took the grapes in the crystal bowl to his room.
Really, could it really be because he was too young?
Why didnt he think that men and women could love each other that much?
The brother and sister who had just left were getting married. Was marriage that good?
Didnt the book say that marriage was the grave of love, specifically to bury lovers?
Jing Rui turned on the smartputer that Jing Yichen had prepared for him while he was eating the grapes.
He picked up the small microphone and said a long set of code without a pause. Then, the program started and he entered the system.
Ever since Jing Yichen had taught him how to use this smartputer, he had started to explore it. It was much more interesting than love and marriage.
Chapter 859
Chapter 859: Whose child is it?
Trantor: 549690339
At the beginning of July, Zhao Anan, who had been treated in Germany for more than half a year, recovered and returned home.
Because of the chemotherapy, she had lost all her hair, and the hair that had grown back now was very short.
But she didnt care about it at all. Mu Qing didnt care about it either. She thought that she looked more handsome with short hair. As soon as they got off the ne, the number of people turning around to look at them was off the charts!
Ha-ha, I, Zhao Anan, havee back alive!
Zhao Anan shouted excitedly all the way, which attracted the attention of many people in the airport.
Mu Qing followed behind her, not caring about other peoples strange looks. He was greeting the two of them with a gentle and handsome smile.
Zhao Anan saw Shangguan ning and her cute and handsome nephew at the first sight. She screamed and ran over.
Beauty, Ive missed you so much!
Shangguan ning held Zhao Anan in her arms with a smile, but Jing Rui said,My mother just came back from Germany three days ago. You havent seen each other for only three days. Why do you look like you havent seen each other for three years? childish!
The word childish sounded funnying out of a childs mouth, especially when Jing Rui was wearing the same shirt and trousers as Jing Yichen. He looked like a child with an adults soul in his body.
Zhao Anan actually liked Jing Rui very much, but she liked to go against him. She loved to see Jing Rui lose his cool.
Little brat, Im on good terms with your mother. Are you jealous? Youre a child who doesnt know anything. Hurry up and go home to y with your father. You two are the same kind of people!
Jing Rui agreed with Zhao Anan for once. He nodded and said, Youre right. Im the same type of person as my father. Were both geniuses. As for you guys, its better to let uncle prescribe more brain tonic.
Mu Qing burst intoughter. This little girl was getting better at mocking people! In the past, Mu Qing had always been defeated by Zhao Anan, but now Zhao Anan had finally met her match.
Zhao Ananughed too. Jing Rui hadughed at her for herck of intelligence many times.
Anyway, she was a Bachelor. It was not her fault that she was not smart enough. It was her parents genes that were not strong enough!
Shangguan ning didnt care about Jing Rui anymore. He was too opinionated and always right. No matter what he said, she wouldnt reprimand her son anymore. She would let him grow up freely. Sometimes, it was not a bad thing to be conceited.
Jing Yichen was an extremely proud man, but he had the right to be proud.
Jing Rui was so simr to Jing Yichen, so it was normal for him to have the same personality.
Her way of teaching might be suitable for ordinary children, but not for Jing Rui. She had given Jing Yichen the responsibility of Jing Ruis education. She was only responsible for taking care of her sons daily life.
Alright, the two of you are bickering the moment you meet. I cant even get a word in, so hurry home! Old man mu must be waiting anxiously.
Shangguan ning walked out with Zhao Anan. Lee duo and his men were already waiting for them at the parking lot at the exit of the airport. They got into the car and went straight to mu Wenshengs small courtyard.
The airport was in the suburbs, and so was mu Wenshengs small courtyard. It was only a 20-minute drive away.
Zhao Anan followed Mu Qing and walked in happily.
In a yard as big as a football field, Jing Yichen was sitting by a stone table under a pomegranate tree. But there were two small cribs in front of him, each with a baby who was a few months old.
The smile on Zhao Anans face quickly turned into surprise. She ran up to Jing Yichen and asked in shock when she saw the two babies sleeping in the cradle,Brother, when did you and sister-inw have two children? Why havent I seen nings stomach get bigger? You guys ... Have three children now?
Shangguan ning had flown to Germany almost every half a month when she was sick. How could she have had time to give birth?
But it was impossible for Jing Yichen to have a child with another woman.
Jing Yichen looked at her coldly and pointed at Jing Rui, who looked exactly like him.As long as youre not blind, you can tell that I only have one son. The two idiots in the yard only know how to eat and sleep. How can they be my children?
Jing Rui was as cold as his father,aunt, did you not eat carrots and take medicine as I told you to? Cant you tell that these two children look exactly like you?
Zhao Anans eyes almost popped out.
Nonsense, how do these two monkeys look like me? I dont have such an ugly child! Whose family did this belong to? If its not your child, why are you here as a nanny to look after the child?
Jing Yichen only knew how to take care of Jing Rui. He didnt even look at other peoples children, so why would he stay here to look after the two little ones?
Who told you that I am a nanny? Jing Yichen said calmly.
Then youre a bodyguard?
Who can afford to hire me as a bodyguard?
Then Who are you? Zhao Anan shouted out without thinking. Jing Yichen had fooled her.
Moreover, her voice was too loud and woke up the two sleeping babies.
The two of them burst into tears. Mu Qing threw all his luggage aside and held one of them in his arms.Aiya, be good, Duoduo. Dont cry, dont cry. Daddy is here!
Zhao Anan felt as if she had been struck by lightning on a sunny day.
Dad?
It took her a long time to find her soul. She asked in disbelief,Stupid blockhead, are these two monkeys your children?
Before Mu Qing could say anything, mu Wensheng and Jing Tianyuan came out of the room. The old man said unhappily,Who are you calling a monkey? This is your son! And ah Qing, whats wrong with your eyes? the one youre carrying is sen sen, and Duoduo is the other one! Didnt I send you the photos? Why cant I even tell if its a son or a daughter!
Mu Qingughed and said,ah, Im sorry, Im sorry. Im just too happy! Come,e,e, Duoduo,e into daddys arms too!
He carried the two babies carefully. The two wet nurses who were in charge of taking care of the babies came out of the room and saw the babies being carried by Mu Qing awkwardly. They hurried over and took the babies.Third young master, you cant carry the children like this. Theyre still too young and can be easily hurt!
Mu Qing did not have any experience in carrying babies, so he gave the baby to them at once. Ill wait for you guys to teach meter!
Zhao Anan looked at the scene in front of her in a daze.
She had never given birth to a child before, so who the hell were these two brats?
Chapter 860
Chapter 860: Im a mother (1)
Trantor: 549690339
Zhao Anan felt that her brain was exactly as Jing Rui had described. She was hopeless.
Why did everyone look like they knew what was going on? each one was calmer than the other, and she was the only one who looked silly, as if she had been struck by lightning!
What the hell happened?!
Zhao Anan pped the stone table so hard that her palms were red, but she didnt feel any pain.Wait a minute, wait a minute, hurry up and exin to me whose children these two monkeys are! Why did two children suddenly appear when I came back? why did I be a mother for no reason? I dont want to be a stepmother!
Shangguan ning bent over withughter. She took Duoduo from the nannys hands and pushed her into Zhao Anans arms.Are you stupid? theres no such thing as a stepmother. Youre clearly her biological mother, and Duoduo looks so much like you. Who else could she be but your child?
Zhao Anan caught the baby subconsciously and looked down at the face that was very simr to her own. She said with her eyes wide open,Is my memory loss that serious? He didnt even know that he had given birth to a child? And theyre twins!
Auntie, youre so stupid. When did you give birth? One of the children was five months old, and the other was six months old. How could they be twins? Havent you been treating your illness in Germany for the past six months? How could she have the time to give birth! Sigh, it seems that the doctors in Germany are just average. Otherwise, why are they getting more and more confused the more they treat him?
Jing Rui shook his head and sighed.Uncle, arent you afraid that mu Sen and mu duo will be too stupid in the future by marrying such a stupid wife? Intelligence was hereditary! Look at me, my genes are in ce, thats why Im so smart!
Hahaha, its fine. Sensen and Duoduo will have you as their brother to protect them. Whats there to be afraid of if theyre stupid? Besides, your aunt is actually quite smart, and so am I. The two of them wont be too bad in the future!
Of course, he was not as good as Jing Rui. Only family Jing had a genius like him. Family mu was not.
Mu Qing thought that his son and daughter should not be so talented and should just be smart, otherwise he and Zhao Anan would not be able to take care of them. Jing Rui was so smart that Shangguan ning could not resist him!
Zhao Anan was totally confused by this group of people!
However, no one exined to her, which made her so anxious that the corners of her mouth were about to blister! Why didnt she hear about such a big thing before? it seemed that even Jing Rui knew about it, and the whole family knew about it, but she was the only one who knew about it.
But from what Jing Rui had said, she was sure that the two babies in front of her were indeed her and Mu Qings children.
She was really his biological mother!
She looked down at the little darling who was subconsciously eating his fingers in her arms and an indescribable feeling welled up in her heart.
This is impossible!
Although she really liked these two little things, she waspletely sure that she had never given birth to a child!
Zhao Anan walked to Mu Qing with mu duo in her arms. Seeing that he was smiling but not exining, she stomped on his foot angrily. Whats going on? Where did these two childrene from? It fell from the sky?
Mu Qing cried out in pain and jumped around in the yard.
Mu Wensheng was very unhappy.You little brat! How dare you bully my grandson in front of me? how did that old woman Zhao Fu teach you? Im going to teach her a lesson! If I had known that you would marry Mu Qing, I would have brought you to the MU family.
Mu Qing put his arms around Zhao Anans shoulders after the pain had passed and said with a big smile,These two children should be credited to our grandfather! Duoduo and Sensen were both test-tube babies raised by the old man. Then, he found two women who were physically and mentally healthy to give birth to them through surrogacy. Thats why they were born only a month apart.
Ah? Test tube baby? I ... I ... Can?
Zhao Anan was surprised. She had done it many times before.| During the womb examination, the doctor said that her ovum had lost its activity due to chemotherapy, and the probability of conceiving was very, very low.
Mu Qing knew what she meant. He said with a smile,With Grandpa, the miracle doctor, around, is there anything that cant be done?
Mu Wensheng was quite pleased with his ttery.
Hmph, of course Im powerful, you dont have to tell me that! However, Ill say this first. These two children were raised by me, and Ive also raised them to this age. In the future, theyll be learning medicine from me. The two of you, stand aside! This old man can at least live for another 20 to 30 years, so it wont be a problem to raise them until theyre 20!
Mu Wensheng didnt care about anything else and was busy fighting for the custody.
He was not at ease to leave the two children in Zhao Anans care. She was always acting crazy and rude. She would only cause trouble and eventually lead the children astray.
But in fact, Zhao Anan had no interest in raising a child.
Until now, her mind was still in a daze. She had not entered the role of a mother at all!
She had two children out of the blue, so how could she raise them? It was already a problem for her to support herself!
She quickly agreed,Okay, okay, Grandpa will take care of them! Im so stupid, I definitely cant raise it!
At least you still have some self-awareness! However, you have to take care of the child for the next few months. You cant be idle. When my great-grandson and great-granddaughter are sensible, I will be responsible for teaching them! You ... You can be their nanny for the time being!
Zhao Anans arms were already stiff after holding Duoduo for a while. She didnt dare to move, for fear of hurting the little thing.
Grandpa, I dont know how to look after a child! She cried.
Mu Wensheng red at him and said,who is born to take care of children? Even Jing Rui knows how to take care of her now, and youre an adult. These are your own daughter and son!
Zhao Anan could only lower her head after being scolded by Grandpa.Alright, Ill try.
Jing Tianyuan, who had been watching the show, suddenly said,Yichen, hurry up. Ruirui is already two years old. Hes all alone. How pitiful!
Shangguan ning didnt expect that the old man would suddenly speak. She blushed and tried to make herself invisible.
But Jing Yichen didnt feel embarrassed at all. He looked at his wife and said calmly, Dont worry, wait until Ruirui is a little older. After all, the two of thembined were not half as smart as Ruirui. This isnt something that can be won by numbers!
Chapter 861: Im a mother (2)
Chapter 861: I''m a mother (2)
Zhao Anan, who had just been saying "two monkeys," was not happy at all."Brother, what do you mean? only your son is smart and my son is not? Hmph, my son will definitely be stronger than your son in the future. He will crush you all!"
"Aunt," Jing Rui suddenly said,"your two children have been born."
"What do you mean?" Zhao Anan was confused. Of course they''re already born!"
"But, someone smarter than me hasn''t been born yet!"
It took Zhao Anan a minute to understand what Jing Rui meant. He was indirectly saying that her son was not as smart as him.
Was it really good for this child to have such a high IQ?
I really can''t talk to him anymore, or I''ll be killed by him!
She decided that she would keep her children away from Jing Rui, otherwise they would not be able to bear being crushed by such a genius.
She had been living in Jing Yichen''s shadow all those years ago. She couldn''t let her children suffer the same fate.
The nanny fed the two children, and then Duoduo and Sensen both fell asleep sweetly.
Mu Wensheng stared at Zhao Anan and said in a low voice,"You little brat, keep your voice down. If you wake them up, you can coax them yourself!"
Zhao Anan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and said in a low voice,"Okay, okay, okay. I know. Don''t worry, Grandpa. I won''t dare to speak loudly anymore!"
The old man had unexpectedly given her such a big surprise. He had actually raised two children, one son and one daughter. This was simply too perfect!
It was a blessing to have a godly doctor at home!
Her respect for the old man had now reached an unprecedented level!
The old man''s words were like an imperial edict, and she had to obey them.
Mu Wensheng felt much better seeing Zhao Anan being so nice to him. He took Jing Tianyuan back to theb to get his medicine.
Seeing the two old men leave, Zhao Anan felt no pressure at all. She sat in front of the two basketballs happily and stared at the two babies who looked very simr.
"Blockhead, hurry up and pinch me, let me see if I''m dreaming!"
Mu Qing burst intoughter. He also felt like he was in a dream. After all, it was the first time that he had seen his two children. It felt much more real than in the pictures.
The old man had taken care of the breeding of the embryos, finding a surrogate, taking care of the two pregnant women, giving birth, and taking care of the newborns. At the age of eighty-two, it was really hard and not easy for him to do so many things.
He felt extremely guilty and felt that he owed his grandfather too much.
Since Grandpa wanted him to take care of them, then he would let them stay with Grandpa. As long as Grandpa didn''t feel tired, he and Zhao Anan wouldn''t be reluctant to leave them.
"It''s not a dream. Grandpa has been managing for an entire year for the two of them. We''re just enjoying the fruits of hisbor."
Zhao Anan didn''t hear what Mu Qing said at all. She looked left and right. The more she looked at them, the more she felt that her son and daughter were very pretty and adorable.
When she first came back, she thought that the two children were really ugly. Not only did they have no hair, but their eyes, nose, and mouth were all wrinkled together, like two monkeys!
Now that she knew that they were her children, she immediately felt that both of them were geniuses!
"Why do you have a child? How am I a mother? The old man was too awesome! If he can do anything, does that mean he can win a Nobel Prize or something?"
Jing Yichen despised people who had no medical knowledge."Test-tube babies have been developed for a long time. If it was so easy to win a Nobel Prize, I would have won hundreds of them! You''re uncultured!"
Zhao Anan''s attention waspletely focused on the two children. She didn''t care that she had been crushed by Jing Yichen again. She reached out her fingers to touch her daughter''s hand.
She didn''t expect Duoduo to suddenly hold her finger in her sleep and refuse to let go.
Zhao Anan felt like crying when her daughter grabbed her finger. With red eyes, she put the other finger into her son''s hand.
Mu Sen was one month older than mu duo and he was more sensitive than her. He caught Zhao Anan''s fingers immediately.
She was so touched by the two children that her tears fell uncontrobly."Aiya, blockhead, my son and daughter know me! They all like me!"
Mu Qing wiped away her tears gently."Yes, the children all know that mommy is here."
Jing Rui interrupted Zhao Anan''s dream."Aunt, you''re thinking too much. Now, as long as something is put into their hands, they will hold it. If you don''t believe me, you can try to put a piece of wood in it."
Zhao Anan stopped crying."Go away. Who is this unlucky kid? he is so smart. He is not afraid that I will kill him out of jealousy." Go y somewhere else and stay away from my son and daughter. Otherwise, it''s easy to cause the Third World War!"
Shangguan ning pinched Zhao Anan and then put her hands on Zhao Anan''s neck."What kind of aunt are you? why, are you trying to kill my son? Do you believe that I won''t strangle you to death right now!"
"Alright, Madam Jing, I was wrong! I won''t dare to do it again in the future. Young Madam, please spare me! Your husband is so powerful, who dares to kill your son? I''m afraid he''ll be better off dead! I still have to stay alive to take care of my daughter and son!"
Shangguan ningughed at Zhao Anan''s words. She sat on the stone bench in front of the cradle, side by side with Zhao Anan. Looking at the two babies who were sleeping soundly, she said with a gentle expression, "That''s great, Anan. I''m so happy that you have a child too. When they grow up, they can y with Ruirui!"
Zhao Anan leaned her head on Shangguan ning''s shoulder and said, "Don''t mind, please spare my son and daughter! It''s better if we don''t y together!"
"Eh? What''s wrong?"
"You''ve never experienced the kind of defeat thates from being crushed by a genius in all aspects. Your family''s genius had already finished his university curriculum at the age of ten and is proficient in N foreignnguages. He knows everything about microbial, quantum physics, and organic chemistry! I didn''t even know how to read when I was ten years old. I feel like I''m talking to an alien when I talk to him! When I was young, I always thought that I was an idiot from earth!"
Jing Yichen''s cold voice came from the air."Are you not?"
Shangguan ning red at him and then put her arms around Zhao Anan''s shoulders."Ignore him. I didn''t even learn all the words when I was ten. Other than him, who else could have learned so many words before ten? everyone is still in primary school at ten! We are all Earthlings, he is an alien! Earthlings aren''t that smart!"

Trantor: 549690339
Zhao Anan smiled happily.
Hahaha, it feels great to have a good friend as my sister-inw! At least her best friend was on her side now. In the future, she would no longer have to be afraid of her cousin, that top genius!
She lifted her chin at Jing Yichen smugly and then continued to focus on her two children.
Ning, why do I feel like I picked up two children for free? I feel like a meat pie has fallen from the sky and hit me!
Shangguan ning was overjoyed.Thats a good description. You have not suffered at all. Giving birth can really cost you half your life. You dont even have to go through it!
Yeah, Im really lucky! However, its impossible for these two children to appear out of thin air, right?
Zhao Anan suddenly felt that something was wrong. Test-tube babies should at least require the eggs and sperm of both the husband and wife.
Jing Rui sighed as he sat on Jing Yichensp.Sigh, my IQ is really low. I only thought of this question now. Father, mu Sen and mu duo wont be as stupid in the future, right?
Jing Yichen consoled his son.Dont worry. Mu Qings intelligence is not bad. If they are on average, they will be better than your aunt. They wont be so stupid that they will fall below the sea level. However, if you take after your aunt, you dont have to bother with those two idiots in the future. Your aunt was too stupid when she was young, and she caused me a lot of trouble. Dont follow in dads footsteps.
Oh, I see, I understand!
Zhao Anan was furious.
Why are these two so hateful!
Luckily, Jing Yichen had married the Shangguan ning that she knew. If he had married a super genius, a family of three with a sharp tongue and two-faced personality, she would have been dead meat.
Luckily, Jing Yichen didnt want to stay for lunch. He held Jing Ruis hand and Shangguan nings hand and left mu Wenshengs ce. Otherwise, Jing Yichen would look down on him again at lunch.
After lunch, Zhao Anan went to mu bingrongs ce with Mu Qing. Both of them knew that Zhao Anan was fine and were happy for her.
They also didnt want their son to just marry a wife and her wife would die.
Mu Qing and Zhao Anan returned to mu Wenshengs yardte at night.
The vi was located in the suburbs. The air was fresh and the environment was good. Even the stars in the sky seemed to be exceptionally bright.
Zhao Anan couldnt bear to sleep, so she stayed by her childrens side and looked at them.
Youve just recovered a little. Dont stay upte. Go to bed quickly. Sensen and Duoduo have nanny to take care of them. You dont have to keep watch!
Mu Qing wanted to take Zhao Anan away, but she wouldnt let him.
Don t, let me see them again! By the way, I havent settled the matter of their birth with you yet! Why does everyone know about it except for me, your mother?
Zhao Anan had been looking at the two babies with a gentle expression, but her expression changed immediately and she asked Mu Qing aggressively.
She didnt want to disturb the child, so she grabbed Mu Qings cor and pulled him out of the room.
Bastard, why didnt you tell me about such a big thing! Im so angry! When did you steal my cells?
Zhao Anan stomped her feet in anger. She had been so worried about what would happen if they didnt have any children in the future, but Mu Qing had solved the problem.
Bad guy, he didnt even tell her!
She should have returned to China earlier! How could she be at ease with only two nannies taking care of the child? she was the childs biological mother!
Mu Qing exined everything to Zhao Anan in detail and said with a smile,We werent married when we took the egg cells in the past. I was afraid that you wouldnt agree, so I secretly took them and didnt tell you. But I was afraid that it wouldnt work. If something happened to the two pregnant women and the children had problems, I would still make you feel bad if I told you, so I didnt tell you.
In fact, it was because mu Wensheng had said that the two babies might not be able to be born because the health of the embryos at that time was not ideal. It was likely that the fetuses would die in the womb.
So Mu Qing had not dared to tell Zhao Anan about it.
After they were born, I thought that since you were going back to China soon, I would give you a surprise, so I held back.
Zhao Anan was not satisfied with this exnation. She kept a straight face and felt that she had been tricked.
Because she was poisoned by yang Muyan, she couldnt remember much about her past. She just felt that something was wrong with her marriage, but she couldnt remember what it was.
But just now, Mu Qing had mentioned that she had not agreed to the marriage before, so she had taken the ovum secretly.
How did she agree to the marriage?
It really made people break down. She wasnt smart enough to begin with, and now she even lost her memory. Wasnt she just waiting to be tricked?
Its said that one pregnancy makes one stupid for three years. Shes not pregnant at all, but shes also so stupid!
Oh my God, the more I think about it, the more I want to hit someone!
Was it really time for her to eat walnuts to boost her brain, as Jing Rui had said?
Mu Qing smiled and held Zhao Anan.Dont be angry. You are a mother of two now. You cant be as stubborn as you used to be. Its not easy for me to hide such a big secret for such a long time!
Zhao Anan pushed him away and pulled his ears. Youre still in the right! I saw two children as soon as I entered the door today, and you even imed to be the Father of the children. I thought you found another girl and secretly gave birth to the children! Fortunately, Im a virtuous, magnanimous, calm, and rational woman. Otherwise, I mightve killed them on the spot!
Wife, you dont look like a virtuous, magnanimous, calm, and rational person at all, okay? Hurry up and let go, or Ill have to ask my grandfather to put my ear back together!
Mu Qing cried out in pain. As soon as he finished his words, an evil voice was heard,
Senior brother, master has already fallen asleep. If your ear is pulled out, you can ask your Junior Brother to help you! Dont worry, I promise I wont charge you a single cent. However, Ive never picked up my ears before, so if I pick them up wrongly, you cant me me!
Mu Qing and Zhao Anan turned to the door of the living room at the same time and said in surprise,Jing Yiran?
Was this man really Jing Yiran?
His originally cool and slightly long hair had been shaved to a crew cut. He was wearing a pair of ck-rimmed sses. He was not wearing the fancy luxury brands that he used to like to wear. Instead, he was wearing a light gray shirt, a white coat that doctors would wear, ck cotton trousers, and a pair of ordinary ck leather shoes.
Other than that handsome face and evil aura, everything else had changed dramatically!
Chapter 863: Desperate second young master
Chapter 863: Desperate second young master
Jing Yiran didn''t feel ufortable being stared at by Mu Qing and Zhao Anan like they were looking at an alien. He raised his eyebrows and smiled. He winked at Mu Qing and said, "What''s wrong, senior brother?"
He dragged out thest syble in a coquettish way, which made Mu Qing shiver.
Jing Yiran looked extremely handsome even in his white coat and ck-rimmed sses. No clothes could hide his dazzling brilliance.
He put his hands in the pockets of his white coat and walked toward Mu Qing.
"Senior brother, why do you keep staring at me? Don''t you recognize your Junior Brother after going to Germany? Or ... Are you like my little luoluo, who has been charmed by me and wants to spend the night with me?"
Mu Qing almost vomited blood.
What the hell was this?
Who was little luoluo?
Spend a good night together?
Are you sure it''s not to take my life?
"Y-y-you ... Get lost! Get away from me! You''re so disgusting in the middle of the night, can''t you let me sleep!"
Jing Yiran put his arms around Mu Qing''s neck and leaned against him. He said in a flirtatious tone,"Senior brother, do you want to try sleeping with three people? After you''ve tried it once, I''m sure you won''t like to sleep with me anymore!"
Mu Qing''s white face turned red.
Zhao Anan burst intoughter seeing Mu Qing''s expression change because of Jing Yiran''s disgust.
God, why did Jing Yiran be like this after a trip to Germany? It could disgust people to death in minutes!
How did the old man train this disciple? he looked so serious on the outside and looked like the most serious doctor, but in the end, he was full of bad ideas!
Mu Qing couldn''t bear it anymore. He took out a silver needle and started to poke at an acupoint on Jing Yiran''s body, trying to fix him.
But Jing Yiran reacted very quickly and dodged it.
"Senior brother, do you think that I''ve been learning for nothing in the past six months? In the past, you pricked a certain vital part of my body multiple times and it didn''t get hard even after a year. Don''t tell me that I''ve not learned my lesson after studying medicine and want to continue being pricked by you?"
Jing Yiran was very proud of himself. Humph, no way! After following mu Wensheng, his medical skills had improved by leaps and bounds. He had already started to learn the basics of acupuncture. Although he was not as good at treating diseases as Mu Qing, he had no problem defending.
Mu Qing''s Silver needles had been used skillfully and sessfully on everyone except for Jing Yichen. He had not expected that he would fail on Jing Yiran again today.
He looked at Jing Yiran in surprise. This man had made great progress!
He tugged at Jing Yiran''s white coat, which was embroidered with the words "family MU''s Hospital," and asked in confusion,""Why are you wearing this too? You''re a doctor in our family''s Hospital?"
"Of course. My master said that I''m much smarter than you. If you can be a doctor, why can''t I? I''m a rare medical genius!" Jing Yiran keptplimenting himself without blushing."And what do you mean by your family''s Hospital? it belongs to the Jing and mu families. You provide the manpower and we provide the money. We can''t let you take all the money!"
Mu Qing didn''t want to waste his time talking to Jing Yiran about who owned the hospital. The hospital was owned by family mu and family Jing was just an investment.
He just thought that Jing Yiran would ruin the reputation of family MU''s Hospital if he became a doctor there.
"You''ve only learned how to be a doctor for a short time! The old master really dared to send people to harm others!"
"Oh my, senior brother, are you looking down on me or the old man''s teaching level? The old man''s one-month teaching is equivalent to someone else''s one-year teaching. I''ve learned medicine for half a year. It''s nothing difficult for me to see a headache or a fever. I can even perform minor operations! I''m very famous now, and the number of patientsing to me is overwhelming every day. I''ve been working untilte at night before I came back from the hospital and sent the summary of today''s experience to the old man. I''m so serious!"
Mu Qing was even more surprised. When did Jing Yiran be so diligent? He actually worked untilte at night! He could even write a summary of his experience?
He used to be a yboy and only knew how to y. He didn''t spend too much time on managing his own businesses and spent all his time on evil things. Making trouble for Jing Yichen was the most important thing in his life.
A person''s greatest fear was that he worked hard. As long as he worked hard, it was easy to win the respect of others.
Mu Qing had never liked Jing Yiran before, but now he found him a little cute and heart-wrenching.
His father didn''t dote on him, and his mother didn''t love him. His only brother crushed him in all aspects, so it was quite normal for him to grow up in a crooked way.
Mu Qing knew Grandpa mu very well. He was the kind of person who was fierce with his words, but in fact, he would not hide anything when he decided on someone. Since he had epted Jing Yiran as his disciple, he would definitely teach him with all his heart, not only in medical skills, but also in his life, because Grandpa always believed that a doctor should treat his heart first.
It must be the first time that Jing Yiran had met an old man who liked to nag and meddle in everything. He was so touched by the old man.
Mu Qing noticed that Jing Yiran''s handsome face was full of fatigue and his eyes were bloodshot.
He could not help but ask,"why are your eyes so red?" How long have you not slept?"
Jing Yiran thought for a while and then said,"Aiya, if you didn''t mention it, I would have forgotten about it! No wonder I''ve been feeling like I''m missing something for the past two days. It''s because I''mcking sleep!"
Mu Qing was speechless. Second young master, don''t be so dramatic! That''s too ridiculous. He couldn''t possibly be so possessed that he even forgot to sleep, right?
"Okay, okay, okay, don''t stay here anymore, go home and sleep! With such red eyes, aren''t you afraid of turning into a rabbit?"
"Oh, I have to hurry home. My wife and children are still waiting for me at home. I wonder if my son has been a good boy or not. Did he torment his mother today?"
Jing Yiran was smiling gently and his words were filled with the sweetness of life, which surprised both Mu Qing and Zhao Anan.
Zhao Anan''s eyes widened,"you have a son too?" When did this happen? Howe I didn''t know about this? Why did everything change after I went to Germany?"
Jing Yiran was very fond of the word "evildoer." He felt that he was indeed an evildoer! Smart, handsome, and unrivaled!
"My master''s credit! However, my son isn''t born yet. When he''s born, he''ll definitely kill your son in seconds, Hmph!"
Chapter 864
Chapter 864: Lus happiness
Trantor: 549690339
After all that, the child was not even born yet!
How annoying, taking long breaths when talking! She had thought that Lu had given birth too!
But ...
With your IQ, you want your son to kill my son in seconds? dream on! Zhao Anan was going to fight Jing Yiran to death if he dared to say anything bad about her son. She was the most protective person.
Jing Yiran said triumphantly,yes, I am not smart. So what? my wife is smart! Shes been through gic modification, and her basic ability is a high-end project like photographic memory. My son will definitely be a genius in the future!
In fact, Zhao Anan had been quarreling with Jing Yiran since they were little. They didnt like each other and would always scold each other. Sometimes, they would even fight.
Mu Qing had seen them fight many times. Neither of them was afraid of death, but neither of them was an expert in Kung Fu. They fought with only their bare hands and feet, which were not fatal, but covered with bruises.
He drove Jing Yiran away and took Zhao Anan back to the room to sleep.
These two were not easy to deal with, and their characters were the impulsive type. If they were not careful, they would fight again, so it was better to separate them quickly.
Jing Yiran came out of mu Wenshengs yard and drove back to his house. He saw Lu reading a book on how to raise a child.
He was a little surprised. Where did Lu get these books?
She had been taken care of by mu Wensheng. She was in good health and the fetus was developing well. She would give birth in three months, so she had be calm andposed from the initial confusion and panic.
Heid on the bed and held Lu in his arms. He put his palm on Lus belly and asked softly,Where did the booke from?
Shangguan ning gave it to me. She said that this book was very useful and asked me to learn from it.
Lu was very serious.
She had never met parents who loved their children and had a serious psychological shadow in her childhood. Therefore, she wanted to be a good mother. No matter what her child would be like in the future, she would love him, protect him, and give him the greatest motherly love.
She didnt have much experience in taking care of children, but Shangguan ning had taught her a lot. She had even asked someone to send her many books on how to take care of children that she had bought before.
Shes quite thoughtful.
Jing Yiran smiled. He wanted to say that Shangguan ning had suffered so much in the past because she was too kind. Although she did not like him very much, she was very nice to Lu and the baby.
He took the book from Lus hand and was surprised after a while.Hey, this book is really useful. Its very practical and suitable for first-time parents like us! No, I have to go to their house one day and bring all their parenting books here! Jing Rui is such a smart boy, and maybe these parenting books also y a part in it. Our son has to be smarter than Jing Rui!
Lu didnt say anything. She turned around and curled up in Jing Yirans arms. She liked the warm feeling on Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran put down the book in his hand and changed to a morefortable position.
Is our son well-behaved today?
Not good, very naughty, always moving around.
Hahaha, then hell definitely be like me in the future, lively, cheerful, and loved by everyone!
Luughed.
They had a simr conversation yesterday, but the content was different.
Is our son good?
Very obedient, very quiet, you didnt kick me today.
Oh, my son takes after me. Hes as calm and collected as his father. Hes the material to be a King in the future!
He had new ways to praise himself and his son every day, so he was especially thick-skinned.
Lu was lying in Jing Yirans arms. She felt veryfortable when she smelled the scent of Chinese herbs on him.
There was not much difference between her life when she was pregnant and when she was not. Her pregnancy symptoms were very mild, which made her feel that it was not that difficult to conceive a child.
Jing Yiran had been very busy recently. He had to work as an intern in the hospital, study at MU Wenshengs ce and take care of her, a pregnant woman. He had been so busy that he had not had a good rest. Lu felt that he was working too hard, so she tried not to disturb him.
The feeling of having a man to support her made her feel very secure.
Recently, killer organizations and research institutions specializing in virus gic modification had been looking for her. The killer organization even wanted her to take on missions through the internalmunication channels of the killers, and the pay was very high.
With the protection of family Jing, they would not make things difficult for her. So they were all friendly to her and would not force her to do anything.
Lu didnt care about those things, and she didnt tell the organization or the research Agency that she was pregnant.
She just wanted to stay at home quietly and give the child a stable environment, then give birth to him smoothly.
In the future, she wanted to live the life of an ordinary person and no longer be a killing machine.
Her life with Jing Yiran was already stable and happy. It was best that it could stay the same in the future.
But she wasnt afraid of the storm, because she had been through it all and she was strong enough to protect Jing Yiran and her child.
However, she didnt know what her son would be like in the future. She was a little worried that her son would be like her in the future, gued by the virus all over his body and needed to change his blood often.
ording to the childs current activity in her womb, his strength and development were far beyond that of an ordinary fetus.
Mu Wensheng had concluded that his son would inherit most of her body functions.
Jing Yiran had been happy for a long time because his son was so capable that he might be the most powerful man in the future. He was very proud of his son.
Come to the hospital with me tomorrow for another check-up. I want to see how my son has grown!
Jing Yiran murmured and then fell asleep with Lu in his arms.
He had only slept for three to four hours for many days in a row. His body was so exhausted that he almost fell asleep the moment his head touched the pillow.
The next day, Jing Yiran woke up and slept for seven hours. He was as energetic as he used to be. He cleaned himself up and took Lu to the hospital.
Mu Qing had been in Germany his office had been empty. But Jing Yiran had taken over all the other peoples offices in Xuanji hospital. No one was better than Mu Qings office. He had to get the best one, because it would be a waste to leave it empty.
As soon as he entered the office with Lu, he saw Mu Qing standing in front of his desk with a dark face.
Chapter 865: Junior brothers charm is off the charts
Chapter 865: Junior brother''s charm is off the charts
"Yo, senior brother, Good Morning!"
"Early, my ass! It''s already half-past nine!" "How did you turn my office into your office?" Mu Qing asked angrily. Get lost, this is my territory!"
"Senior brother, aren''t you being too stingy? I''ve just joined master''s sect not long ago, and you, as his senior brother, aren''t even going to give me a greeting gift? I think this office is not bad. I''ve been using it for so long that I''m used to it. You can give it to me!"
What did he mean by ''he''s used to it''!
Mu Qing was so angry that he wanted to hit someone. He had used this office for so many years. He would have to find another one if he gave it to Jing Yiran. No way!
"Forget about this office! You want a meeting gift, right? Sure, here, this silver needle is for you!"
He took out a needle and handed it to Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran''s eyes widened and he said in disbelief,""Mu Qing, don''t you have any shame? How can you, as a senior brother, be so stingy? I''ve never heard of anyone giving an embroidery needle as a greeting gift! You''ve set a new record for the lowest number of gifts in A city!"
He took out a handful of silver needles from a special pocket and waved them in front of Mu Qing,"I have plenty of silver needles! Hurry up and take back your ''super luxurious'' meeting gift. Don''t you feel embarrassed in front of my wife and my unborn son?"
Mu Qing didn''t feel embarrassed at all. He didn''t want to talk about face with a shameless man like Jing Yiran. If you''re serious, you''ll lose!
"Forget it if you don''t want my meeting gift. Get out of here. This office is mine. You can find another one for yourself. There are still a few empty offices in the hospital!"
"That won''t do. My patients all know that I''m using this office. What if they can''t find me if I change to another one? I''ll have to bear with it for a few days and share an office with you. I''ll tell the patients about my new office before I move out!"
Jing Yiran asked Lu to sit down and put on the white coat from the closet. Then he opened the electric kettle to boil some water. After boiling the water, he took out a red apple from the drawer, peeled it with a fruit knife and gave it to Lu.
When he was done, he turned around and saw Mu Qing still standing there in a daze. He couldn''t help but greet him warmly,"Hey, senior brother, what are you standing there for? hurry up and take a seat. Don''t stand on ceremony. Just treat it as your own home!"
Mu Qing really wanted to stab the needle into Jing Yiran''s perfect face.
Who was being polite with him!
This was his office, so why was he Jing Yiran''s guest now?
No, I have to quickly get someone to clean up a beautiful office for this evildoer. Otherwise, he will definitely stay here and not leave!
Mu Qing turned around and went to find an administrative staff to arrange an office for Jing Yiran.
When he returned, he found that there was arge group of female patients in the office. There were people of all ages, and there were even two children around ten years old!
Lu was gone, probably for a pregnancy test.
Jing Yiran sat there and smiled like a sunflower. "Don''t worry, everyone. Take it one by one. I promise to cure everyone, but I don''t ept any dates! The hospital doesn''t allow it, and my professional ethics don''t allow me to do this!"
A bold and open female patient expressed her dissatisfaction."Doctor Jing, I''m here for you. How can you not go on a date with me? I''m very grateful to you for curing my illness, so it''s normal for me to treat you to a meal!"
"That''s right, Dr. Jing, you''re so good at medicine. We all like you!"The others echoed. How could you be so heartless as to reject such a small request from a female patient?"
"Doctor Jing, do you provide door-to-door service? My house is near the hospital,e to my house!"
How could these women be so passionate and explicit!
Mu Qing facepalmed. He finally knew why Jing Yiran had so many patients. They weren''t here to see a doctor, they were here to see a handsome man!
Was it really good to have such a coquettish and charming Junior Brother? Is the old man sure he didn''t get the wrong person?
His office had beenpletely upied by these women. They were all trying to get in front of Jing Yiran, asking him to treat them.
Jing Yiran seemed to have gotten used to this. He checked each patient''s condition and prescribed medicine ording to their symptoms. He was also taking notes.
When he encountered a female patient with a serious problem, he didn''t simply prescribe medicine. Instead, he said a lot of mysterious medical vocabry and asked her toe back for a follow-up tomorrow. Mu Qing was very familiar with this move!
This was because he had done this before when he was not proficient in medicine. When he encountered a problem that he could not solve, he would first dupe it and record the condition. Then, he would go home at night and ask the old man. Then, he would prescribe medicine for the condition the next day.
In this way, he would improve at a godly speed!
Of course, if they encountered a more urgent condition, they would definitely not dare to do this. They would have to directly rmend the patient to an experienced doctor and let a real expert diagnose it.
Mu Qing stood aside and watched for a while. Then he realized that Jing Yiran was very professional. He was quick-witted, quick-witted and had a high efficiency in taking pulses. He even remembered all the medicines perfectly.
He was extremely shocked!
This was definitely not the level of someone who had only studied medicine for half a year!
Even if mu Wensheng was a good teacher, he couldn''t have taught him to such an extent, because Mu Qing felt that he couldn''t do it himself.
He had never expected that Jing Yiran would be so smart and smart in medical studies.
He was indeed a member of family Jing and Jing zhongxiu''s son. He was smarter than the average person. Jing Yiran just refused to learn, but now that he was serious, he improved so fast that it was as if he was sitting on a rocket. It made people jealous.
Mu Qing was very emotional. He even felt the same pressure as when he had just started to study medicine.
If he was surpassed by his Junior Brother, it would be too embarrassing as a senior brother! He would definitely be beaten to death by the old man when he got home!
He also needed to work harder and study more medical skills. He needed to discuss more difficult medical cases with others to improve himself.
As the most outstanding heir of the MU family, he must not embarrass the MU family!
When he returned to mu Wensheng''s ce in the evening, Mu Qing read the notes that Grandpa mu had collected more carefully than ever.
Zhao Anan was holding Duoduo in her arms, who was blowing bubbles after eating. She asked curiously,"Why are you working so hard today? did you get triggered in the hospital?"
Chapter 866
Chapter 866: Educating the child
Trantor: 549690339
Am I that obvious? Mu Qing burst intoughter.
Yeah, its especially obvious!
Zhao Anan held her daughter in her arms and was very happy. She had been watching her daughter and son all day.
She had thought that Mu Qing would be like her when he came back, holding the two children and not letting go. She had even left mu Sen for him to hold. But he just kissed the two children and went to the study room of the old man to study hard.
Didnt you hold the two children in your arms yesterday? You didnt even bother to carry the child today. You must have been triggered. Otherwise, you would have carried Sensen and teased him a long time ago!
Zhao Anan knew Mu Qing very well. He liked children very much. Every time he saw Jing Rui, he liked him so much that he wished that he was his own child. He liked to talk to Jing Rui and did not care about Jing Ruis scheming nature.
Now that she had a child, it was impossible for him not to dote on her. The biggest possibility was that he was provoked!
Mu Qing stood up and kissed Zhao Anan and then his daughters face. He said with a smile, Youre indeed my wife, you know me so well! I was stimted by Jing Yiran today!
What? What did that bastard do this time? Just you wait, Ill go beat him up for you!
Zhao Anan turned around with Duoduo in her arms.
Mu Qing didnt know whether tough or cry. Dont mess around! Its my own problem. This time, it really has nothing to do with him. I saw how serious and hardworking he was, so I felt a sense of urgency and wanted to learn more to enrich myself. I have to admit that family Jings genes are very powerful. Jing Yiran is not as smart as master Jing, but he is also very powerful. Hes so smart, but hes so hardworking. I have no reason to ck off.
Zhao Anan had been a bad student since she was a child, and she didnt understand the world of the top students.
Why were these men all so motivated? even Jing Yiran, who was a man who did not want to improve himself, was working so hard. She was forced to work hard too!
Sigh, she just couldnt be with someone who was too smart. Not only would it make her look stupid, but it would also make her lookzy!
Jing Yichen was not enough, and now Jing Yiran was added to the mix. Wouldnt a woman with a low IQ like her have a way out?
Alright, you can continue with your studies. Our daughter and I wont disturb you anymore! You must defeat that demon, my husband is the best! In terms of medical skills, youre definitely the best!
Mu Qing was overjoyed by Zhao Anans praise and he was confident that he could keep his dignity as the eldest brother.
Haha, dont worry, your husband is definitely first! Jing Yiran, step aside!
Zhao Anan carried Duo Duo out of the study. When she returned to the nursery, she saw mu Wensheng and Jing Tianyuan standing around Sensen. The two of them were both over 160 years old. They were holding a toy doll and a rattle-drum, looking energetic and full of childlike energy. They made Sensen giggle.
Seeing Zhao Ananing in with Duoduo, mu Wensheng asked in surprise,Where is that Mu Qing?
Zhao Anan sighed.Its all because of your good apprentice. He is a very hardworking man. He has upset your grandson and he is working hard in the study.
Mu Wensheng was a little stunned, but then heughed,This old man has epted a good disciple! There was actually such an unexpected surprise! That brat only knew how to follow you around in the past, and hes left his homework behind by a huge chunk. Now, he finally knows how to be anxious! Oh my, I have to give Yiran more special treatment so that he can help my grandson!
Zhao Anan was speechless. Who was grandpas real grandson?
Jing Tianyuan was the happiest to see Jing Yiran working so hard. He smiled like an old fox.Tsk, tsk, tsk. My two grandsons are doing well now, and I have two great-grandsons. Family Jing finally has a sessor!
F * ck, Im the one who taught Yiran. You cant be proud!
Mu Wensheng didnt like it, but he felt that he was helping Jing Tianyuan.
How can I not be proud of my grandson? Jing Tianyuan said calmly. However, in return, I can help you teach this little thing.
He stretched out his hand and pointed at mu Sen, who was still lying on the ground andughing foolishly. Mu Sen saw a finger reaching towards him and grabbed it happily. After grabbing it, he stuffed it into his mouth.
Jing Tianyuan pulled his finger out of her hand and scolded her jokingly,This little brat is more cunning than Mu Qing! You already know how to please me?
Mu Wensheng hesitated.
He didnt want to give his great-grandson to Jing Tianyuan, who was a pervert. The way family Jing taught their children was not something that ordinary people could handle. Mu Sen would have to sacrifice half of his life in order to meet Jing Tianyuans requirements.
Good-for-nothing! Its already good enough that Im willing to teach you, but youre still worried that mu Sen will get hurt! No wonder the MU family has always been so tepid!
Bah! Of course you wouldnt feel bad if he wasnt your great-grandson! Youre such a pervert, which child can stand you! Mu Wensheng wasnt afraid of Jing Tianyuan at all. He had beenughed at by Jing Tianyuan more than once and didnt take it seriously. He immediately retorted that family MUs way of education was good.
Isnt that how zhongxiu and Yichen were raised? In the future, Ruirui would also ept those harsh challenges, which were all scientifically proven! It can tap into the human bodys potential to the greatest extent, and its a true ability that can save lives in the future!
Jing Tianyuan had been through that kind of education and managed family Jing well. It was a secret of family Jing, and he wouldnt teach others that easily.
If mu Wensheng hadnt taught Jing Tianyuan everything he knew, he wouldnt have taught his grandson for family mu.
Zhao Anan was so scared that she shivered when she saw the two old men arguing with each other about their son.
Good to see mu Wensheng. He was used to being angry, so he didnt look that scary.
Jing Tianyuan was the most terrifying one.
Zhao Anan had never seen Jing Tianyuan lose his temper. He was a well-mannered man who had been educated in a noble family. He was a man of few words and looked cold. But now, he looked like a domineering King when he got angry.
She finally knew where Jing Yichen got that cold and Noble temperament. It was not only cultivated, but also inherited.
She hugged Duoduo tightly, afraid that her daughter would be frightened by the two angry old men.
But the two old men refused to let her go.
Anan, mu Sen is your child. Arent you willing to let him learn some skills from me? I think you should know best what kind of person your cousin is!
Anan, dont listen to old Jings nonsense. He is good at brainwashing. Moreover, mu Sen is now under my care, you have no right to speak! Take Duoduo to the side and stay there!
Chapter 867
Chapter 867: Chapter 867-luck with women

In fact, Zhao Anan had always admired Jing Tianyuan.
He had always been a man who was looked up to by others. He had once been famous and Jing zhongxiu, who he had trained, was also a super emperor who had a great influence all over the world.
The three generations of family Jing had left a deep impression in Zhao Anans heart.
For a long time, she had been troubled by the fact that her surname was not Jing. If her surname was Jing, she would be very smart and sessful.
Zhao Anan stood there and hesitated for a while. Then she said,Grandpa, I think we should let Sensen study medicine before he turns 15 and then learn something else from Grandpa Jing after he turns 15. He cane back to study medicine when he turns 18. That way, he wont be dyed in both fields.
The two old men stared at Zhao Anan. After a while, they realized that she was right.
Mu Wensheng actually wanted mu Sen to learn from Jing Tianyuan, but he was worried that his great-grandson would be tortured to death by Jing Tianyuan because he was too young. But after the age of 15, he would be fully developed in all aspects, so it wouldnt matter if he was tortured to death.
Jing Tianyuan also thought that 15 years old was a good age. Mu Sens intelligence would be very mature at 15, unlike the children of family Jing who had the intelligence of adults at the age of three or five and could undergo all kinds of willpower training.
The two of them looked at each other and saw the word agree in each others eyes.
Okay, its settled then! Mu Wensheng decided.
Zhao Anan was very happy. Her son would be an outstanding person with the education of these two big shots.
She left happily with Duo Duo in her arms and went to tell Mu Qing the good news.
She did not know that her unintentional suggestion would change mu Sens life in the future.
Many yearster, mu Sens name would be among the people whose names would shake the world.
The two old men had just been quarreling, and in a short while, they had be brothers.
Old Jing, how about we go for a drink?
I want to drink that precious bottle of red ginseng wine! Ive drunk all the others except for this one!
No, no, its not cered yet, and the medicinal effects havent been fully analyzed. Its a waste to drink it now! Why dont you change to something else, how about hundred flower wine?
Alright, hundred flower wine it is then. However, when the red ginseng wine is ready, you have to treat me to a drink. You cant go back on your word!
Mu Wensheng red at him.Can I me you if I go back on my word? If you dont give it to me, youll snatch it away, and youll bring Jing Rui along!
He carefully carried mu Sen and said,lets go! Let the little one drink a little too. He drank so much when he was in someone elses stomach, now he can finally taste the real taste!
Zheng Luns wedding was approaching. Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan went to pick out the wedding dress for her.
Zhao Anan was so happy that she was waving her hands and feet, trying to show Zheng Lun all kinds of wedding dresses.
Lun, you look good in this beaded dress! No, no, no, thatce one looks even better! Aiya, this sleeveless chest wrap is also very beautiful! But, Lun, I just found out that your breasts are so big! Why did you hide them in the past? I couldnt tell at all!
Zhao Anan stretched out her fingers and was about to poke Zheng Luns exposed breasts.
Zheng Luns face turned red. She covered her chest and moved back in a hurry.Anan, youre so mean! Y-y-you ... You werent like this before!
She was introverted and her style of dressing was very conservative. She would not like to show off her sexy figure like other women.
Zheng Jing was the only one who had ever seen or touched her chest.
And she was not too close to Zheng Jing yet. Zheng Jing would only kiss her and rarely touch her body. Even though they were about to get married, they still kept a distance.
Zheng Lun was very shy about that kind of thing. She didnt expect that Zhao Anan would flirt with her so boldly.
An unmarried woman was different from a married woman. It was normal for Zheng Lun to be so shy. Shangguan ning thought that she looked very cute when she blushed. She pulled Zhao Anan aside with a smile so that she would not touch Zheng Lun.
Lun, you dont know this. This man used to be like this, so bad! Stay away from her in the future, in case she takes advantage of you!
Zhao Anan peeked at Shangguan nings chest and said with an evil smile,Yo, beauty, why do you sound like Ive taken advantage of you before? But I havent seen your size yet. Hurry up, take off your clothes and let me admire you!
Shangguan ning pinched her cheek with a smile.Sure, Ill strip for you to see, as long as youre not afraid of your brother finding out!
Don t! Don t! I was wrong, I was wrong!
Hearing Shangguan ning mention Jing Yichen, Zhao Anan became obedient. If he knew that she had seen Shangguan ning naked, he would kill her right away, regardless of whether she was his cousin or sister.
Zhao Anan decided not to mess with Shangguan ning. With Zheng Lun around, she could always tease Zheng Lun.
Sheughed and yed with Shangguan ning for a while. Then she took advantage of her height and put her arms around Zheng Luns shoulders. She looked down at her full chest and mumbled,Zheng Jing is so lucky with women. Tsk, tsk, tsk, such a beautiful chest, he will probably have a nosebleed! If the two of you sleep together at night, will he not let go of your hand?
Zheng Lun was so embarrassed by Zhao Anans words.
How could this person speak so unscrupulously and ask such a difficult question!
Zheng Luns face turned red and she stomped her feet in anger.Anan, youre so annoying! When did I sleep with my brother? were all sleeping in our own rooms. Its not like what you said!
Zhao Anans eyes widened,you two didnt sleep together? Was Zheng Jing even a man? how could he resist a woman with an angelic face and a devilish body? Oh my, does he have a problem in that area? Dont be shy. Mu Qing is good at treating mens unmentionable diseases. Lets take him to the hospital tomorrow.
Before Zheng Lun could say anything, a voice came from the door.Zhao Anan, mind your own business. My business has nothing to do with you.
Zheng Jing came in with a dark face and looked at Zhao Anan with a hostile expression.
Hmph, she dared to say that he had a problem in that area! He even asked him to go to Mu Qing for treatment, which was really infuriating!
How could he talk nonsense about this kind of question? Lun was so innocent that he didnt want to be influenced by her. It would be terrible if Lun really thought that he had a problem!
Zhao Anan didnt expect Zheng Jing toe in. He had been waiting outside the whole time.

Chapter 868-scammed by my nephew again
"That ... I''m not talking about you, I''m talking about you. I''m just saying that you''re lucky to have such a beautiful and gentle wife!"
Doubting a man''s ability was a serious matter. Zhao Anan didn''t want to have another fight with Zheng Jing. After all, he was going to get married to Zheng Lun and if she hurt him, Lun would be angry.
Since Zhao Anan had softened her tone, Zheng Jing didn''t argue with her.
After choosing the wedding dress, Shangguan ning was picked up by Jing Yichen and Zhao Anan by Mu Qing. Zheng Jing drove Zheng Lun back. He couldn''t help but smile when he saw the excitement and happiness on Zheng Lun''s face.
When he got home, Zheng qinan and PEI Xinhua had both gone out and were not back yet. The wedding had made them very busy, and they had almost no time to rest.
When there was no one at home, Zheng Jing would be more unscrupulous.
He picked up Zheng Lun and walked upstairs.
Zheng Lun was startled. She thought that he was angry at what Zhao Anan had said and wanted to prove himself.
"Brother, Anan was just joking. Don''t take it to heart. I know you ... Can do it," she said, blushing.
His voice was as soft as a mosquito when he said thest three words.
Zheng Lun was too embarrassed to ask about it.
Zheng Jing smiled and teased her,"Oh?" Was it? You haven''t even tried, how do you know if I can or can ''t? If it doesn''t work, won''t you lose your sexual happiness for the rest of your life?"
Zheng Lun buried her face in Zheng Jing''s chest shyly and refused to speak.
How was she supposed to exin this!
Could it be that every time he held her tightly in his arms, every time he was aroused, she could feel his high-spirited and hard feelings?
This was too embarrassing!
Seeing that she was too embarrassed to raise her head, Zheng Jingughed and carried her into the bedroom. Then he pressed himself on top of her.
Zheng Lun pushed him away with both shock and embarrassment."Big brother, get up quickly. Don''t be like this, Daddy and Mommy will be back soon!"
If their parents saw them in this position, Zheng Lun would have to find a hole to hide in.
Zheng Jing caught her hands and put his forehead against Zheng Lun ''S. He said in a low voice,"Lun, I will have you after we get married ..."
He felt that this was the greatest respect for Zheng Lun. Their identities were a bit sensitive, and they couldn''t get married without any obstacles like other people.
He and Zheng Lun had been brother and sister for twenty years. Now that they were getting married, people would still look at them differently.
Experienced elders could tell if a girl was still a Virgin from her walking posture and the slight difference between her eyebrows.
Now that Zheng Lun was still a girl, the elders in the family and the people outside would think that she was a good girl and not someone who would mess around with her brother.
This was the best protection for her.
Zheng Jing couldn''t bear to see her suffer any grievances, so he would rather endure the pain himself than have sex with her before marriage.
Zheng Lun did not know what Zheng Jing was up to, but she could feel the protection and respect from her brother.
Her face was flushed, but she didn''t avoid Zheng Jing this time. Instead, she looked at Zheng Jing with her big misty eyes and said softly,"Brother, you''re so silly."
If Zheng Jing wanted her, she would not refuse.
Because her desire for Zheng Jing was no less than his desire for her.
Love was mutual. She and Zheng Jing had been in a rtionship for so long that they could clearly feel each other''s feelings with just one look.
Zheng Lun''s body was soft and warm, with the unique fragrance of a girl. Zheng Jing was on top of her and had an impulse to eat her up.
He couldn''t go on like this. His body would have a reaction soon.
Zheng Jing took a deep breath and kissed Zheng Lun a few times. Then he got up quickly and went to take a shower.
Time always passed by unknowingly, especially on busy days, time would pass very quickly.
August 18th came soon. Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun were getting married. Many friends and family members of the Zheng family, the PEI family and the Gu family hade.
The wedding was very lively. Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan had been with Zheng Lun since the morning. The Zheng family had asked a rtive to be their best man and bridesmaid, but Zheng Lun knew her but was not familiar with her. The girl had no experience in this. She was nervous and confused. Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan had been helping out the whole time. She was just there to join in the fun.
Mu Qing was helping Zheng Jing and Jing Yiran was here today, but he was here to make trouble.
"Hey, hey, hey, aren''t your red packets a little too little? Aren''t you afraid of beingughed at?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Senior brother, your fingers were so flexible during the operation, but now you can''t even wear a corsage properly. How embarrassing!"
"Aiya, the groom looks so ugly today. Where did he find a makeup artist? You''re not even as good as this young master''s makeup! Forget it, he doesn''t look that good usually anyway. No matter how handsome he is today, he can''t be as handsome as me! Am I right, brother?"
Jing Yichen didn''t even look at him. He kept his eyes on his son and ignored the talkative Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran was getting closer and closer to him, but he had never been nice to him. But Jing Yiran was too thick-skinned and didn''t take his cold face seriously. He even said that he looked like an older brother when he was cold.
Jing Yichen wanted to kick this talkative man away so that he could have some peace and quiet, but he couldn''t do that, because Jing Yiran was not as reckless as he used to be. He was treating him like his own brother, so he couldn''t use violence.
Zheng Jing drove Zheng Lun from the Gu family to the Zheng family. The Zheng family was in a jubnt mood and the firecrackers were crackling. Many rtives and friends of the Zheng family and the PEI family were asking for red packets from the bride.
Jing Rui walked around in the crowd and came back with a thick stack of red packets.
"Dad, here you go."
Jing Rui gave all the red packets to Jing Yichen and asked his father to help him manage all the funds.
Jing Yiran quickly snatched a red packet from Jing Rui''s hand.""Give me one!"
Jing Rui was too young to beat Jing Yiran. He looked at Jing Yiran and said, "You''re already so old, but you''re still snatching red packets from a child. What a waste of your good looks. "
Jing Yiran returned the red packet immediately and said with his eyes wide open,"You little brat, I''m your uncle. How can you speak so rudely!"
Jing Rui retorted."You know that you are my uncle. Which uncle would snatch a red packet from his nephew?"
As he said this, he reached out his hand to Jing Yiran."Hand it over!"

Chapter 869: Scammed by my nephew again (2)
Trantor: 549690339
What? Jing Yiran was confused.
Red packet! Give it back to me!
Didnt I just return it to you?
Youve only given me one, Im still missing nine more! Didnt you just take ten from me? Dad, did he take ten red packets from me?
Jing Yichen nodded seriously.Yes, I saw it clearly.
Jing Yiran was shocked by the shamelessness of the father and son.
He thought that his skin was already very thick, but he didnt expect to meet an opponent today!
What did I do in my past life to have such a brother and such a nephew? he couldnt help but wail.
Its my wedding day. Dont wail like a ghost and wail like a Wolf. Hurry up and return the remaining nine red packets to me. Youre not thinking of reneging on your debt, are you?
Mu Qing had just finished his work and heard Jing Ruis words. He looked at him with disdain.Jing Yiran, can you stop embarrassing yourself? how could you snatch a red packet from a kid? Give it back to Ruirui, his red packets were all given to him by others because they thought he was cute and smart. If you want it, go grab it yourself!
Jing Yiran looked pained and helpless! I didnt snatch his red packet, hes trying to frame me!
Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan came over and protected Jing Rui. They didnt give Jing Yiran any face.
Jing Yiran, why are you bullying my nephew? give him back the red packet!
Jing Yiran, you took my sons Red packet? I am so concerned about Lu and your child. How can you be so shameless?
Jing Yiran was getting a headache.
Why did he be the thousand using fingers?
This little brat was really trying to kill him!
I dont even have a red packet on me. If you dont believe me, you can search me!
He was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat. He simply wanted to take off his clothes and let everyone see that he was penniless!
God, he would never dare to mess with Jing Rui again. He did not know when this guy would dig a hole and bury him.
He was in a hurry to defend himself, but no one believed him, because Jing Yiran was really capable of snatching Jing Ruis Red packet!
The crowd soon dispersed. Jing Rui came back after walking for a while. He stopped in front of Jing Yiran and said with his tender face,Second uncle, do you like red packets too? Ill give you one!
Jing Yiran stepped back out of reflex and said in fear,You, you, you ... What are you doing now!
Just now, he was pushing him to his death. Why did his face change so quickly? not only was he willing to call him second uncle, but he even wanted to give him a red packet!
This was definitely not normal!
This brat might havee up with some ghostly idea again!
He would not be fooled!
Jing Rui smiled and said,dont you like red packets? Although I like it too, I have a lot of it. Ill give you one.
As he said this, he put the red packet on the floor not far away from Jing Yiran and skipped away like an ordinary child.
Jing Yiran was very suspicious. Did he misunderstand Jing Rui?
Did Jing Rui really have a conscience?
Or was it because he was besieged and framed by too many people just now that this little rascal felt a little guilty?
Jing Yiran looked at the red packet on the floor. He walked to it hesitantly and was about to open it.
The worst thing was that there was no money in the red packet. He would be yed by Jing Rui.
He opened the red packet and was about to check if there was any cash inside. In the end, there was a crisp bang and ck smoke came out of the red packet and jumped onto his face. Then, his handsome face immediately turned ck!
His two hands did not escape either. They turned ck, as if he had not washed his hands after mining coal!
Jing Yirans roar soon reverberated in the Zheng familys Vi.Jing Rui! Come over here, Ill beat you to death, you little bastard!
Jing Yichen held his sons hand and strolled in the garden of the Zheng family.
Son, did you use the little ck bean that your Grandpa gave you?
Yes, dad. Little ck bean is quite useful. However, this little ck bean wasnt given to me by Grandpa, I made it myself.
The little ck bean that the father and son were talking about was actually a small firecracker-like explosive made of graphite. However, this kind of little ck bean would explode immediately upon contact and pressure. It was not powerful, but it was very difficult to clean, so it was very suitable for trapping people.
Oh? Have you already learned how to be a little ck bean?
Jing Yichen was a little surprised. He had learned how to make this kind of toy from Jing zhongxiu when he was a child, but he was already three years old when he learned it, while Jing Rui was only two years and four months old.
Yes, dad. I heard that my record is higher than yours!
Jing Yichen smiled.You are better than me. You will surpass me in the future.
I will definitely surpass you. When I grow up, I will be able to protect you and mom!
Jing Rui was full of confidence. He was looking forward to surpassing his father, who was like a god. In his heart, his father was invincible, because he had never seen anything that could stop him.
Since his father said that he was more powerful, he was definitely not lying. He was indeed very smart.
The weddingsted for a whole day. Jing Yichen and Jing Rui only showed up once. The rest of the time, he was in the car with his son in his arms, studying the structure and power Principles of the car. If Jing Rui had not been so short, he would have learned how to drive by now.
After the wedding, Shangguan ning and Jing Rui were sitting in the back of the car when they went home. She touched her sons head and said with mixed feelings,Marriage is so touching and blissful. Now, Im waiting for Ruirui to get married. We must make his wedding a Grand one.
Jing Rui took the hand away from her head and said calmly,Mom, youre thinking too far ahead. Itll take at least 30 years for me to get married. Its more practical for you to care about what I have for breakfast tomorrow.
Seeing that her son didnt want her to touch his head, Shangguan ning took him into her arms and said seriously, Tomorrows breakfast has already been set a month ago. Your father has also personally set the menu for you. You cant get married sote. Hmm ... Its best if you get married around the age of 25. Otherwise, all the good girls will be picked by others.
Dad only married you in his thirties, and it was a sh marriage. I can totally adopt this model in the future. Its not good to get married too early, its easy to be a henpecked husband and lose your freedom.
Shangguan ning was dumbfounded by Jing Ruis eloquence.
Mom, you have to promise me that Ill decide my own marriage in the future. You cant interfere.
Shangguan ning felt a little helpless. Was she that untrustworthy of her son?
Chapter 870: Happy wedding (part one)
Chapter 870: Happy wedding (part one)
At the Zheng family, Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun could finally have a good rest after seeing off all the guests. Zheng Lun went upstairs to get changed while Zheng Jing was helping PEI Xinhua to pack up in the living room. He was obviously much stronger than Zheng Lun. Even though he had been standing for a whole day, he still looked energetic.
PEI Xinhua and Zheng qinan were also exhausted, but their faces were full of joy. Everything had been going well today. Perhaps everyone had epted the fact that Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing were not biological siblings. Everyone hade to give their blessings and no one had said anything stupid.
The Zheng family''s Vi was three stories high. The first and second stories were usually used, and the third floor had been left empty for Zheng Jing''s wedding.
This was because the three-story building was very Grand. There was only one bedroom, followed by a living room, a study, a bathroom, and so on. PEI Xinhua had wanted to let Zheng Jing and his daughter-inw live on the third floor, while she, Zheng qinan and Zheng Lun would live on the second floor, so that they would not disturb their sweet life.
She and Zheng qinan had also bought a vi for Zheng Jing in the suburbs. If his daughter-inw did not want to live with her inws, they could move out and stay alone, as long as they coulde home often on weekends.
Now that her daughter-inw was the daughter that she had raised, PEI Xinhua''s previous worries were all gone. Zheng Lun would definitely be willing to live with them.
But PEI Xinhua knew that Zheng Lun was shy, so she had told Zheng Jing that if Zheng Lun felt ufortable at home, they could live in the suburbs for a while during the wedding and enjoy their sweet time together.
Zheng Jing thought that his mother was so thoughtful. He kissed her on the cheek andughed."As expected of my biological mother!"
PEI Xinhua''s eyes narrowed into a line as she smiled."Go, go, go, quickly go upstairs and rest! You''re already an adult and married, yet you''re still not serious!"
Zheng Jing went up to the third floor with a smile. Then he heard the sound of watering from the bathroom. He smiled and knew that Zheng Lun was taking a shower.
In order to style her hair today, she had put on a lot of hair wax and put on makeup. She was used to facing the sky all day long, so she was not used to the sudden heavy makeup. She must be busy washing her face and hair.
Zheng Jing felt that he had been lying on the red bed for a century before Zheng Lun came out of the bathroom.
She was wearing a bathrobe and wrapped herself up tightly. She was drying her hair with a white towel.
Zheng Jing got off the bed, took the towel from Zheng Lun and wiped her down carefully.
"Lun, I was just drying your hair for you. Why are you blushing? You haven''t even wiped the rest of your body yet. If you wipe your body, I''m worried that you''ll faint from embarrassment!"
Zheng Lun didn''t know what was going on.
It was not the first time that Zheng Jing had dried her hair for her. He used to do such intimate things for her and even washed her feet for her.
However, she was feeling too strange today!
She had never known that hair could feel anything. Her heart started to beat faster when Zheng Jing touched her hair.
She blushed and pouted,"big brother, you''re not allowed tough at me!" I''m not as thick-skinned as you. Give me back the towel, I''ll wipe it myself!"
Zheng Jing gave the towel back to Zheng Lun and bit her lips."Wipe it yourself. I''m going to take a shower. Be good and wait for me on the bed. Of course, it''s best if you strip naked and wait for me. I might be able to perform better!"
Zheng Lun''s heart almost jumped out of her chest.
He seemed to be getting more and more out of hand!
She covered her face with a towel in embarrassment and stomped her feet. "I''m going to ignore you!"
Zheng Jingughed and went into the bathroom. Within ten minutes, he was naked.| He came out with his upper body bare and his lower body wrapped in a bath towel.
Zheng Lun had already dried her hair. She didn''t listen to Zheng Jing andy on the bed, but sat in front of the dressing table andbed her long hair.
She got up in a panic and almost fell on the chair when she saw Zheng Jing walking to her with only a towel wrapped around his body.
Zheng Jing held her in his arms and breathed into her ear."Why are you panicking?"
"You ... Why didn''t you put on any clothes? Didn''t I prepare a bathrobe for you?"
When Zheng Lun touched Zheng Jing''s strong chest muscles, she felt as if she had been scalded by his warm skin. She immediately withdrew her fingers, not daring to touch him.
"I''ll have to take it offter. It''s so troublesome, so I might as well not wear it. If I wasn''t afraid of scaring you, I wouldn''t even have wrapped myself in a towel. "
As he said this, he threw Zheng Lun onto the soft bed.
He turned off the main light and only turned on the two small bedsidemps. The light was dim and yellow, instantly making the atmosphere in the bedroom ambiguous.
Zheng Lun''s heart was beating at an unprecedented speed as she watched Zheng Jing getting closer and closer to her. She felt that she was about to melt even though Zheng Jing had not touched her and was only looking at her affectionately.
When Zheng Jing held her in his arms and took off her bathrobe and red underwear, she felt as if she was floating in the clouds and all her strength was gone.
"Big brother ..."
Zheng Lun murmured unconsciously. She was so embarrassed, but her love for Zheng Jing prevailed. She held Zheng Jing''s neck bravely and went up to him for a kiss.
Zheng Jing''s blood was already pumping fast because of Zheng Lun''s beauty. Now that she was kissing him with her soft lips, he couldn''t control the surge of emotions in his heart.
He kissed her madly as if he wanted to release all the pent-up emotions he had.
He had been longing for Zheng Lun for so long that he wanted to have her in his body and be with her forever.
He took off Zheng Lun''s clothes. Under the dim light, her snow-white skin was as smooth and beautiful as suet Jade. Her body was like a perfect piece of art, so beautiful.
This was the first time that he had seen Zheng Lun''s body. Zheng Lun looked very embarrassed. She covered her lower body and chest in a hurry and said,"Big brother, you''re not allowed to look!"
"Alright, I won''t look."
Zheng Jing coaxed her in a low voice, but he didn''t move his eyes away from her. Instead, he started to kiss her body inch by inch.
Zheng Lun''s body trembled with every kiss.
She moaned. The voice was so charming that Zheng Lun couldn''t believe it was her own voice.
Zheng Jing was having a hard time holding it in, but he was trying to stir up Zheng Lun''s feelings patiently.

What answered Zheng Jing was Zheng Luns passionate and messy kiss.
Zheng Jing finally couldnt control himself and turned her into the woman he was most intimate with.
The Union of the body brought about the Union of the soul.| **** Embrace, lingering and endearing ...
After a few times, the weak Zheng Lun had no more strength left. She begged for mercy.
Brother, dont ... Stop, I dont have any more strength ...
Zheng Jing didnt want to stop at all. Zheng Lun was so wonderful that he wanted to eat her up. They had finally be husband and wife and he had to enjoy all the benefits that they deserved.
After enduring for so long, tonight was their wedding night, and he could finally be unscrupulous.
He could also feel Zheng Luns happiness. As a husband, it was his duty and responsibility to make his woman feel this kind of happiness, otherwise she would doubt his ability.
The two newlyweds spent the entire night in a passionate embrace.
The next day, Zheng Lun woke up in Zheng Jings arms. She blushed when she saw them both naked and touching each others skin.
Zheng Jing bit her ear gently, which made Zheng Lun shiver.
Lun, why do you blush so easily? Very cute, I like it very much. Look, youre all red.
Zheng Luns body was very sensitive and she couldnt stand any of Zheng Jings teasing ...
She bit her lip hard, afraid that she would scream.
Don t, brother ...
Zheng Jing covered her lips, entangled with her and sucked her lips.
When he let go of Zheng Lun, she was already out of breath.
No, no, brother, let go of me. Mommy will call us for dinner soon. Its already past eight ...
Zheng Jingughed and said in an ambiguous tone,Our mother has been through this. How could she be so insensible toe and ruin our good thing? Come here,e closer to me, or the consequences will be very serious.
Zheng Lun couldnt escape Zheng Jings clutches. She got up to take a shower and change her clothes after she was eaten up by Zheng Jing.
Zheng Lun got changed and went downstairs holding Zheng Jings hand.
Brother, this is not good. Let go!
Zheng Jing didnt let go but held her hand even tighter.
Whats wrong with that? Its just a handshake. Didnt I always hold your hand in the past? Im still carrying you around the house!
Zheng Lun stomped her feet anxiously.How can that be the same? I was young and you were my brother at that time!
If PEI Xinhua and Zheng qinan were to see her holding hands with Zheng Jing, she would be so embarrassed.
Im not your brother now? Im not just your brother, Im also your husband. Its normal for me to hold my wifes hand!
Zheng Jing didnt let go of her and took her downstairs.
However, when the two of them went to the living room, they found that there was no one else in the house except them. PEI Xinhua and Zheng qinan had gone out to work, and even the servants had gone out to buy groceries.
Their breakfast had been on the table for God knows how long, and it was already cold.
Zheng Lun let out a sigh of relief when she saw no one was at home.
But Zheng Jing had guessed that PEI Xinhua had left the house on purpose, and had not invited them to breakfast.
She had deliberately left them all the space.
Zheng Jing hugged Zheng Lun and kissed her. He said with a smile,See, Didnt I tell you that our mother has good taste?
Zheng Lun red at him. Its all your fault. You got up sote. Even the breakfast is cold. Mom must have waited for us for a long time!
With me around, how can I let you eat a cold breakfast! Just wait, itll be done in a while!
Zheng Jing asked Zheng Lun to sit down on the dining chair and then went into the kitchen with the porridge and side dishes.
Soon, he came out with the steaming hot porridge and breakfast.Eat more, or youll always lose your strength at night.
Zheng Luns face turned red. Why was her brother always like this? no matter what he said or did, it would always be rted to that matter.
She ignored Zheng Jing and continued to eat.
After the meal, Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun walked out.
Zheng Lun was still in a daze when she heard him calling PEI Xinhua.Mom, you and dad dont have to worry about us. I will go out with Lun for a few days ... We dont know where were going yet, but this is our honeymoon trip, so dont worry about it. Ill definitely be back in a month, so dont worry!
What?
Honeymoon?
Zheng Luns eyes were wide open. Zheng Jing had not discussed this with her. How could he make such a decision? Mom is definitely going to be worried!
After Zheng Jing hung up the phone, Zheng Lun said uneasily,Brother, this isnt very good, right? Its better to discuss it with mom and dad.
Finally, Zheng Lun had be his wife. Zheng Jing was very happy. He looked at Zheng Lun who was looking up at her pretty face without any makeup and couldnt help but pick her up in his arms. Heughed and said,
You dont need to worry. Ill be there for you in the future! Well have the final say in our matters. Mom and dad wont interfere. Of course, our mom might be more anxious to have a grandson. If you want to have one, you can have one. If you dont want one, you can wait a few years. Youre only 26 this year, you can y for a few more years!
He put Zheng Lun in the passenger seat, fastened the seat belt for her and then drove away.
He had hoped to travel with Zheng Lun a long time ago and show her the local customs. Zheng Lun had been staying at home for so long and was not used to being in contact with people. Traveling would be a good way to change her personality.
Zheng Jing had nned the honeymoon trip a long time ago. He had even nned the specific route and booked the hotel. He just didnt tell PEI Xinhua the truth in case she nagged again.
In theing month, he would only have Zheng Lun by his side, and Zheng Lun would only have him by her side. Their rtionship would be purer and deeper.
It was a happy wedding!
Chapter 872
Chapter 872: Chapter 872 Jing Zhi
Trantor: 549690339
On September 21st, Lu gave birth to a baby boy who weighed 2.5 kilograms at family MUs Hospital.
Jing Tianyuan named his second great-grandson Jing Zhi. His name, together with Jing Rui s, was wise.
He hoped that his two great-grandsons could help each other in the future, so that they could make family Jing go further and better with their wisdom.
In the high-ss Ward of the hospital, Jing Yiran was holding his son in his arms.Grandpa, youre biased! Why does Jing Ruis name sound so nice, but my sons name sounds like a retard? no, no, I have to change it!
Mu Wensheng had just taken a sip of water, but he immediately spat it out. Then he pped his thigh andughed wildly.
Hahaha! Jing Tianyuan, you have a time when your name is despised! Youve been showing off every day that youre the best in the world, and now youve finally lost!
He had beenughed at by Jing Tianyuan countless times in his life. Jing Tianyuan had said that he was not good at giving names and that the names of the MU family were not creative and meaningful.
Now, Jing Tianyuan had finally been criticized by his own grandson.
It was so satisfying!
As expected of the good disciple he picked out, she was indeed of the same heart as her master! Finally, he had not cultivated him in vain!
Jing Tianyuans face was as ck as the bottom of! Pot.
He was so angry at his grandson that his hair almost stood up. This brat must have been the nemesis of family Jing in his previous life and he was still bothering family Jing in this life! He only made trouble for him every day and even Jing Yichen had to worry about him!
Jing Yichen was such a good man. He never said anything! Unlike Jing Yiran! Who was so talkative that he talked about everything that he should not say.
He mmed the table and said,your son is Zhi as in Zhi,not Zhi as in mentally retarded! Do you even have a brain, how can you say such things so casually? Give me Jing Zhi and get out of here! If he was raised by you, even if he wasnt a retard, he definitely wouldnt have intelligence!
Jing Zhi was still sleeping soundly in Jing Yirans arms. He was not woken up by the noise.
Jing Yiran sighed.Well, alright. I cant win with my own strength. I will listen to you. I will call you Jing Zhi. But why do I feel that hes not normal? the three of us were so loud, but he didnt respond at all. Is my son deaf?
Not only was Jing Tianyuan so angry that he wanted to hit someone, even mu Wensheng was so angry that his beard was shaking.
Nonsense! How could my great-grandson be deaf! Are you really Jing Zhis father?
Brat, are you doubting my medical skills? I raised him myself. I checked his pulse when he was in his mothers womb and controlled Lus diet to ensure that he had a bnced diet! You actually dare to suspect that he is deaf? Are you blind or are you out of your mind?
Jing Yirans imposing manner was dwarfed by the two old men.
However, he still muttered worriedly,If the child is deaf, we might not be able to diagnose it by pulse reading, not even by ultrasound! Besides, he didnt even cry when he was born. The nurse patted him several times, but he didnt say anything. Is he a mute?
Jing Tianyuan and mu Wensheng were so angry that they almost fell down.
What kind of father was this? Why didnt he wish for his son to be better!
One moment he was retarded, the next moment he was deaf, and the next moment he was mute. She was worried that Jing Zhi might even suspect that he was blind.
They couldnt stand it any longer and drove Jing Yiran out of the ward. They were more experienced in taking care of children and Jing Yiran and Lu were both new parents. They didnt know how to take care of children.
And Lus body was too special. She had no milk to feed the baby!
Fortunately, mu Sen and mu duos nannies had enough milk. It was enough to feed Jing Zhi, who was just born. Mu Sen was about to be weaned off his milk, so the nannies would be able to feed Jing Zhi after a while. It was no problem for the child to be full.
Mu Wensheng prepared the food for the two nannies himself and checked their pulse every once in a while to make sure that they were in good health. He wanted to give the best milk to the children who would decide the future of family mu and family Jing.
Jing Yiran saw Lu walking towards him the moment he stepped out of the door, dressed in ck sportswear.
He widened his eyes in surprise and asked,Lu, why are you out? Didnt I ask you to stay in the next Ward for a month?
I reeked of blood after giving birth. I went home, took a shower, and changed my clothes. I feel much morefortable now. Confinement? Whats confinement?
Lu had been living abroad for a long time. Women in foreign countries would be discharged immediately after giving birth. They would do whatever they were supposed to do. There was no such thing as confinement.
Moreover, wouldnt it be killing her if she were to be bedridden for a month?
With her strong body, she didnt need to lie down for so long. She felt that she was recovering very well.
Are you crazy? Youve just given birth a day ago, and youre already going home to shower? You cant wash it, itll easily leave behind the root of your illness in the future!
Jing Yiran was so anxious that he started to sweat. He had just talked to the two old men for an hour with Jing Zhi in his arms and Lu had already gone home to take a bath and change her clothes!
Was he trying to anger him to death?
He picked Lu up and walked into the ward. He put her on the bed and said seriously,You must stay in confinement. Youre not allowed to move for a month! No bathing, no eating cold food, no wind, all kinds of restrictions! Ill find someone to take care of you, so you have to listen to me!
Lu suddenly chuckled. She wrapped her arms around Jing Yirans neck and said in her baby voice,If I want to go out, you cant stop me, can you? Youre being too careful. With my body, I dont need to go through confinement. Im recovering very well.
Jing Yiran was about to object when Lu showed him her wrist.If you dont believe me, you can take my pulse and see how my body is.
Jing Yiran felt her pulse carefully for a while and then said suspiciously,You really dont have any more questions?
Im really fine with it! But, what about our son? Why arent you hugging him? I want to see how he looks like.
I was abandoned by the two old men, so they kicked me out. My son is still with them!
Lu immediately got out of bed and went to the next Ward.
For others, giving birth was difficult and painful, but Lu didnt feel much pain. She had a smooth process of giving birth to Jing Zhi.
Chapter 873: Older brother and younger brother
Chapter 873: Older brother and younger brother
Lu loved her child.
Although it was her first time being a mother and she didn''t have much experience, it didn''t stop her from liking that little life.
She saw Jing Zhi in mu Wensheng''s nanny''s arms and couldn''t help but ask expectantly,"Can I ... Hug him?"
Her tone was so careful that people who didn''t know her would never think that she was Jing Zhi''s real mother.
Jing Tianyuan felt a little helpless. He had never forbidden Lu from carrying his son. She was Jing Zhi''s mother, and a mother''s hug would give her child a sense of security.
After all, the child had been in the mother''s womb for so long, and he had an instinctive familiarity with his mother.
The nanny handed Jing Zhi to Lu with a smile and taught her how to hold the baby.
Lu held Jing Zhi in her arms carefully and looked up at Jing Yiran happily.""Yiran, we have a baby!"
Jing Yiran burst intoughter. Lu''s reflexes were too slow! Did she only feel surprised and surprised now?
"Yeah, you''re a mother! I''m a father too!"
"Why do I feel that our son is very well-behaved?" Lu asked in a low voice, holding her son in her arms."He doesn''t cry or make a fuss."
"Ahem ... Yes, you''re very obedient, just like when I was young!"
"Oh, so he''s like you. I''m relieved now. I thought he had some kind of physiological defect!"
Mu Wensheng looked at his unreliable parents and said to Jing Tianyuan,""Both your grandson and granddaughter-inw don''t look normal. Is Jingzhi affected by their IQ? If he really turns out to be a retard when he grows up, the good reputation that I''ve built up all my life will be ruined in the hands of family Jing!"
Jing Tianyuan almost vomited blood. He said angrily,""What does this brat have to do with family Jing? He is not my grandson. How could family Jing have such a stupid grandson? This is your disciple, and it''s all your credit that you''ve taught him to be so abnormal!"
When Shangguan ning arrived with Jing Rui, she heard the two old men quarreling again. She shook her head helplessly and pushed Jing Rui."Son, it''s all up to you now!"
"Mom, every time there''s a fire pit like this, you push your son into it. Isn''t that a little unkind?"
"You''re the only one who has the ability to put out the fire between them. No one else can do it, not to mention me. My words are basically adding fuel to the fire."
Alright, mom''s words made sense.
Jing Rui walked slowly to the two old men who were arguing and asked in a childish voice,""Great-grandpa, who will inherit the properties of family Jing in the future? Second uncle gave birth to a son, is he going to snatch my things?"
The argument between Jing Tianyuan and mu Wensheng stopped abruptly.
Shangguan ning was shocked. She covered her son''s mouth in embarrassment and forced a smile."Um ... Ruirui means that he likes his younger brother who was just born!"
How could he casually ask about this matter!
It was all Jing Yichen''s fault. He had always taught Jing Rui that everything in family Jing belonged to him and no one could take anything away from him.
She felt that it was very inappropriate to ask such a question.
Jing Rui did not feel that it was inappropriate at all.
His father had always said that he had to fight for everything by himself. Nothing was what he deserved. If he didn''t fight for it, then he would just wait to be the loser despised by others in the fiercepetition!
He forcefully removed his mother''s hand from his mouth and said unhappily,""Mom, I clearly don''t like this child. Don''t try to confuse me."
Shangguan ning wished she could sew her son''s mouth shut.
How did Jing Yichen raise his son? he was getting colder and colder!
Shangguan ning was so embarrassed, but Jing Tianyuan wasughing out loud.
"Oh, old man mu, look at how sensible my great-grandson is! Family Jing has a worthy sessor!"
Mu Wensheng understood what Jing Tianyuan meant. He was very proud of Jing Rui''s overbearing and cold attitude, which was the most important part of family Jing''s education.
No matter who he was dealing with, he could not be soft-hearted, and he could not give up his own interests at will.
What Jing Rui said today proved that Jing zhongxiu and Jing Yichen''s education had begun to work.
Mu Wensheng couldn''t hide the jealousy on his face. He snorted and said,"What are you so proud of? the children of family mu don''t need to fight for anything. The elders are orderly, very good!"
In fact, he had hoped that family mu could also produce a junior who could monopolize the resources. Otherwise, if the resources were distributed evenly, everyone''s development would be limited, and it would be impossible to create a powerful King like family Jing.
Jing Yiran red at Jing Rui.""You little brat, you''re so young and you''re already trying to steal the family property. Aren''t you afraid that the family property will be too much and crush you until you can''t grow anymore? All the properties of family Jing are in your father''s hands. I want to take them from him, but I haven''t been able to get them after so many years. In the future, there''s still hope for my son to snatch yours, because my son is smarter!"
"No, this isn''t snatching."
Jing Rui''s face was as calm as Jing Yichen ''S. He had imitated his father so well.
"These things are mine to begin with, and I have the responsibility to protect them. If someone wants to take them away, I will definitely not agree."
Jing Rui didn''t know much about family Jing''s property, but he knew that it was a symbol that he was the heir of family Jing and that he had an unbreakable position.
In the future, he had to be the head of family Jing, and no one else.
Jing Yiran stared at Jing Rui and smiled cunningly. "It''s fine, it''s fine. My son doesn''t want a single cent of the family''s property. Anyway, he has you as his brother. He doesn''t need anything. In the future, if he makes a hole, you''ll fill it up. If he gets into trouble, you''ll clean up the mess. He just needs to eat, drink, and have fun in the future. How good is that?"
He had been too stupid to understand this, and that was why he had been fighting with Jing Yichen all the time.
If he had understood this earlier, he wouldn''t have had to suffer so many beatings!
He was living a veryfortable life now. He could call Jing Yichen if he didn''t like someone and the person would disappear within ten minutes.
If he was short of money, he could send a message to Jing Yichen and he would have millions in his ount in a few seconds. It was even better than an ATM!
The most important thing was that his wife was the world''s top killer and Jing Yichen was the one who had been involved in so many murders. This was the world''s most powerful bodyguard, no one else couldpare!
Jing Rui and Jing Yiran had confronted each other many times, but this was the first time that he was rendered speechless by Jing Yiran.
Chapter 874: I dont want to grow up
Chapter 874: I don''t want to grow up
Because Jing Rui was very clear about the situation between his father and second uncle!
It was really her second uncle who had caused trouble, and her father was cleaning up the mess behind the scenes!
Although his father owned the entire family Jing, he had a lot of responsibilities and duties. He was standing at the top of the pyramid, looking down on all living beings, but also had to protect many people.
For example, he, his mother, his second uncle Jing Yiran and his second aunt Lu.
Jing Yiran burst intoughter when he saw Jing Rui was silent.
"Aiyo, little Ruirui, you''ve had such a day too! I''ve been tricked by you several times, and I''ve finally gotten back at you today! Jing Zhi will follow you from now on. He will go wherever you go! All the properties are yours, including Jing Zhi!"
Jing Rui was a little childish. He pouted and said,""I don''t want a little burden, and I don''t want a little follower! He''s so young, I don''t want him!"
When the crowd saw that he was finally acting like an ordinary child and had a little temper, they all burst intoughter.
Hisughter finally woke Jing Zhi up from his sleep.
He opened his eyes and heard theughter of this world. He curiously followed the sound.
No one knew that this little burden had be Jing Rui''s little follower after more than ten years. She had brought Jing Rui good luck and brought him trouble.
When Shangguan ning came home with her son, Jing Yichen noticed that his son was in a bad mood.
He put down the documents, closed hisptop, patted the sofa beside him and said to Jing Rui,""Come here."
Jing Rui shook his head and refused."I am not in a good mood today. Dad, you can y by yourself. I am not going to y with you."
Jing Yichen, who had been rejected by his son for the first time, was stunned. He turned around to look at Shangguan ning.
Shangguan ning said with a smile,"it''s so rare that you have finally been rejected by our son. I used to be rejected by him every day. I feel much better now that I see you being rejected as well."
Jing Yichen shook his head helplessly. What was wrong with them today? neither his wife nor his son wanted to tell him what was going on. He should have gone to the hospital with them if he had known.
Jing Rui went back to his bedroom with his head down. Jing Yichen carried Shangguan ning into their bedroom.
"Baby, you''ll have plenty of time to tell me what happened today in bedter. I''m very patient."
There was a faint fragrance on his body, his posture was straight, and his arms were strong and powerful. Carrying someone was effortless, and it did not affect the beauty of his walk.
His charisma and handsomeness made Shangguan ning''s heart throb.
If she found a handsome husband, she would always feel that she was in love.
In this day and age, the ugly ones were more and more fickle in love, while the handsome ones were devoted to their family.
Shangguan ning liked Jing Yichen''s domineering attitude, but she didn''t dare to let him do whatever he wanted, otherwise she wouldn''t be able to get out of bed again.
"Alright, alright, alright, I''ll tell you! If our son sees us like this, he''llugh at me for being a ''giant baby'' again!"
"Oh, you might not know yet, but he has already understood all the knowledge he should know. If he sees you, he will just pretend not to see you. You don''t have to be shy. If we had always followed the rules, where would he havee from?"
"How can you teach him these things?" Shangguan ning got anxious.
Although his son was talented and intelligent, he was still a child after all. It wasn''t good to teach him those things!
"What''s wrong with that? when I was the same age as him, I already knew about the things between men and women. And I''ve been keeping myself pure for you. Family Jing has a very traditional mindset that the first time can only be given to your wife and not to anyone else. How''s it going? you''ve earned it, right?"
What did she mean by ''she profited''! She also gave her first time to Jing Yichen!
And ... Jing Yichen was not normal.
"You still have the cheek to say that you''re normal? didn''t you suspect that you liked men before?"
Jing Yichen pressed Shangguan ning under him and said with a smile, "That''s why we need to educate them on sex. Otherwise, it''ll be easy for them to go astray!"
It was easy to be taken away when talking to someone with a high IQ!
Shangguan ning felt that she couldn''t reason with Jing Yichen, or she would lose.
In such a short time, where did all this go!
He just wanted to know what had happened to Jing Rui today. He had gone in such a big circle that she was confused.
"Fine, fine, fine. I''ll tell you what happened to Ruirui today. You''re not allowed to mess around!"
Jing Yichen lowered his head and kissed Shangguan ning''s delicate corbones. He said in a low voice,"Yes, it depends on your performance."
Shangguan ning quickly told him what had happened in the hospital. She had thought that her son was unhappy because he had lost to Jing Yiran. Unexpectedly, Jing Yichen smiled and said,"Oh, it''s a good thing. He''s finally experienced the responsibilities and obligations he has to bear in the future."
"What do you mean?" Shangguan ning was confused.
"What I mean is that we don''t need to worry about him. Right now, it''s better to worry about the current situation!"
Jing Rui sighed in the room.
He had always thought that being the young master of family Jing was very impressive and meaningful.
However, he had never felt such hardship like now.
Was he going to be everyone''s nanny and bodyguard in the future?
He used to long for growing up, because only when he grew up would he have enough strength topete with others. But now, he didn''t want to grow up anymore.
He wondered if his father had been as distressed as he was when he was young.
Jing Rui looked at the picture of his parents on the bed. He was in his mother''s arms, and his father was in his mother''s arms.
The family of three looked extremely heartwarming.
And all this warmth and happiness was created by his father!
This was the man he admired the most. He would also encounter difficulties, but he never seemed to take them seriously.
Sigh, he was still far from his father!
Could it be that he couldn''t do the things that his father could do?
In the future, he would definitely be able to provide a powerful protective umbre for his people!
Jing Rui was still in a bad mood, so he decided to have a chat with his second uncle.
Second uncle had caused him so much psychological pressure, so he couldn''t let second uncle be too free, right?
Although he had been defeated by Jing Yiran just now, it was just a small setback. Jing Rui did not think that he would lose to the same person again.
Jing Rui left home and asked Lee duo to send him to family MU''s Hospital.
Seeing Jing Ruie back, Jing Yiran asked in surprise,""Brat, why are you back again? Where''s your mother?"
He still had a lingering fear of Jing Rui. Although he had won a round just now, he was really afraid that the little one would have some other tricks up his sleeve.
After the explosion, his face and hands were covered with ck stains that could not be washed off. Mu Qing hadughed at him for a long time.
Chapter 875: Its a misunderstanding!
Chapter 875: It''s a misunderstanding!
Jing Rui didn''t answer Jing Yiran. He walked to Jing Zhi''s crib, looked at his blushing face and said,""He''s really ugly. "
Jing Yiran red at him."He was born a day ago. His skin is wrinkled and his face is red. How can he look good?" Do you think you were born in a better state than my son? My son was born at full term, while you were born at seven months. When you were born, you definitely wouldn''t be as good-looking as my son!"
"Oh, so I was born when I was only seven months old. Second uncle, tell me, who was the one who caused my mother to go into prematurebor?"
Jing Yiran wanted to bite off his tongue. How could he have said that out loud?
Wasn''t this the same as handing a knife to Jing Rui?
"That ... Second uncle was just muddle-headed. If I had known earlier, my nephew would be so smart and cute. How could I have done it?"
"Yeah, Jing Zhi is so cute. I can''t bear to do it!"
Jing Rui said as he poked Jing Zhi''s little face.
Jing Yiran was shocked! Little brat, stay away from my son! Are you trying to kill my son and then take all the properties of family Jing for yourself?"
Jing Rui took out a white handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the finger that had touched Jing Zhi. He said calmly,""Even if he is alive, all the properties of family Jing will belong to me and have nothing to do with him."
His expression, actions, tone and tone were so simr to Jing Yichen''s that Jing Yiran almost felt that he was talking to Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen didn''t like to be touched. Every time he was touched or beaten, he would take out a handkerchief to wipe his hands.
But now, Jing Rui looked exactly like Jing Yichen!
Jing Zhi had only been born for a day, and Jing Rui already despised him.
Jing Yiran''s face darkened. Was cleanliness hereditary?
Jing Yichen had been a shadow in his heart for a long time, and now Jing Rui had almost be a shadow in his heart.
Would Jing Zhi be traumatized by Jing Rui in the future? this boy was too clever and had more tricks up his sleeve than Jing Yichen.
What Jing Yiran didn''t know was that Jing Rui didn''t hold any hostility towards Jing Zhi. It was already a miracle that Jing Rui had touched Jing Zhi.
In Jing Rui''s eyes, the baby was cute, obedient, soft and cute, much more so than Jing Yiran.
He was in a much better mood now. If he had such a cute little follower in the future, it wouldn''t be a big deal even if he had to clean up his mess.
But he had already made preparations to deal with Jing Yiran and he couldn''t give up halfway.
Jing Rui raised the watch that Jing Yichen had made for him, looked at the time and said, "I''m going to y with great-grandpa mu and great-grandpa mu, you ... I wish you good luck!"
Seeing Jing Rui disappear at the door, Jing Yiran guarded his son with vignce, as if he was afraid that Jing Rui would do something to hurt Jing Zhi.
But after waiting for a long time, he did not see any big moves. Instead, he heard Jing Tianyuan and mu Wenshengughing in the next Ward. The two old men had just been scolding him, but Jing Rui had managed to make them happy so quickly.
Jing Yiran was relieved. He thought that he might have been too suspicious. Jing Rui must have meant it when he said "good luck."
Less than a second after he had this thought, Lu came in from outside.
She looked confused as she handed a letter to Jing Yiran."I went to the washroom just now and someone left a letter on the door handle. I took a look at it just now. This should be your handwriting, right?"
"A letter?"
Jing Yiran was even more confused than Lu.
When he opened it, his handsome face instantly changed!
"Yiran, I never knew. Are you bisexual?" she asked.
Jing Yiran was shocked.
What the hell is bisexual!
"Lu, don''t listen to this nonsense! I like women, not men! I didn''t write this letter at all!"
This must be Jing Rui''s doing!
The handwriting of the letter was exactly the same as his, but it was definitely not written by him!
The content of the letter was that he had confessed to a man!
And his tone waspletely imitating his usual tone, making people think that he was the one who wrote the letter!
Jing Yiran was almost driven mad. Were all the kids so full of ideas these days?
Lu smiled."It''s okay. I can ept that you like men."
She had epted some Western concepts and was very open about the things between men and women. Furthermore, same-sex marriage was legal in foreign countries and generally, she would not be discriminated against. Everyone felt that she was the same as normal people.
So when she read this letter, she really didn''t feel much.
But Jing Yiran didn''t think so. It was a serious matter to fall in love with a man.
As a man, he already had a wife and a son. If others knew that he actually liked men, wouldn''t it be embarrassing?
Hearing that Lu did not believe that he only liked women, he was so angry that he almost broke his teeth.
Jing Yiran grabbed Lu''s shoulders and stared at her."My dear, I only like women and never men. It was Jing Rui''s doing. You have to believe me!"
Lu found the anxious Jing Yiran funny and said on purpose,"I saw you kiss Luo Haost time. Am I seeing things?"
"Uh ... When?"
Cold sweat started to roll down Jing Yiran''s forehead. He didn''t remember kissing Luo Hao. Could it be that ... He had kissed her when he was drunk?
"Aiya, this is a misunderstanding! It''s definitely a misunderstanding, I''m just teasing little Luo!"
Lu couldn''t help butugh when she saw how anxious he was.
Seeing her giggling, Jing Yiran suddenly realized that he had been teased by Lu.
Heavens! When did Lu learn to make fun of people? Wasn''t she always the most serious? Teasing him at this time could really kill him, okay!
He wiped the sweat from his forehead. It was good that she didn''t take it seriously!
In the evening, both Lu and Jing Zhi were discharged from the hospital. Both the adult and the child were in good health, so Mu Qing let them leave the hospital. In order to reassure Jing Yiran, the new father, he tested Jing Zhi''s hearing and made sure that Jing Zhi was not deaf. Jing Yiran left with peace of mind.
Lu and Jing Zhi were both sent to mu Wensheng''s yard so that the nanny could feed Jing Zhi. Jing Yiran went home alone, took a shower and changed his clothes. He stood in the garden and enjoyed the night breeze.
Luo Hao''s face was slightly red as he walked in front of him. He actually said shyly,""Second master, I''ve received your gift."
Chapter 876
Chapter 876: I almost lost my virginity!
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Yiran had a bad feeling that something bad was going to happen.
I ... Gave you a present?
Didnt you give this to me?
He took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Jing Yiran.
Seeing the familiar envelope, the familiar handwriting and the familiar words, Jing Yiran felt that his life had be even more miserable after he had Jing Rui as his nephew.
How could you trick your own uncle like this!
Not only did Lu misunderstand that he was writing a love letter to a man, but he also gave the same love letter to Luo Hao, and even wrote a few words on the envelope: Youll always be at ease!
This time, its over!
Luo Hao was already interested in him, and now that he had received his love letter, he would definitely be even more loyal to him!
How could this be exined?
If he were to say that he didnt write it, Luo Haohao would definitely be dejected and upset. This kid was very infatuated and had a one-track mind. If he got angry and distanced himself from him, it would not be worth it!
He really liked Luo Hao as a friend. When he was in a good mood, he could share with him. When he was in a bad mood, he could also confide in him. Luo Hao was a friend who was very good atforting people and was very suitable to listen to.
But Jing Yiran would never admit that he had written the letter.
Otherwise, this misunderstanding would be huge!
Jing Yiran was caught in a dilemma. He didnt know what to do when Luo Hao asked,Second master, did youe back today?
No, no, no, no! The MU family is overcrowded right now. Theres no ce for me to live!
Jing Yiran denied it immediately, otherwise Luo Hao would think that he hade back for him.
The light in Luo Haos eyes dimmed. He had been suspicious of the authenticity of the letter, but now it seemed that it was a prank. Jing Yiran would never write such a letter.
He felt a little sad and took a step back, wanting to leave.
However, when he stepped back, he tripped over a stone and lost his bnce, falling straight back.
Jing Yiran reached out to catch him subconsciously, but both of them fell to the ground.
Jing Yiran had the fragrance of a shower on him, and his short hair was still wet. His face was perfect, and his lips were red and his teeth were white. He was a feast for the eyes.
Luo Hao turned over and pressed Jing Yiran under him.
Jing Yiran was shocked.
Was he going to lose his virginity to Luo Hao today?
Luo Hao had a strong body, strong muscles, fast speed and great strength. He was a capable man trained by Jing Yichen. If he wanted to do anything to him, would he be able to resist?
Luo Hao, get up now. If you don t, I wont be polite anymore!
Jing Yirans face turned red, but his arms were held down by Luo Hao, so he couldnt hit anyone.
After a while, Luo Hao closed his eyes and bit Jing Yirans lips.
Jing Yirans face turned as ck as the bottom of a pot.
Do you even know how to kiss?
She bit his lips so hard that they broke. Did she have to bite so hard?
Jing Yiran was in so much pain that he bit Luo Hao in revenge.
When Lu got home, she saw two tall and handsome men hugging each other and kissing each other.
Lu was not the kind of person who was particr about rtionships. She had been educated in Europe and America and had seen too much love between the same sex. That was why she was able to stand aside and remind them,The floor is quite cold, why dont we go inside?
Luo Hao got up from the ground as fast as he could and ran away without even looking at Lu.
Jing Yiran felt so aggrieved.
It was fine if he was kissed by Luo Hao. Anyway, this kid was so handsome, so it wasnt a loss to be kissed by him.
But it was too embarrassing for Lu to see them like this! This was not the bearing of a man!
Hey on the ground and wailed,I dont want to live anymore! Xiao Luo had gone crazy today. He wanted to be strong.| Hit me! I cant beat him. Wife, quickly go and skin him for me!
Seeing that his lips were bleeding, Lu was both angry and amused.You didnt look like you were raped.| The two of them look quite intimate!
Im innocent! Hes so strong, Im not his match at all! Luckily you came back, otherwise my innocence would have been ruined by him today!
Oh, you think Ive disturbed you? Its fine, I just came back to get some clothes for me and our son. After I leave, you can call Luo Hao back to continue. Dont worry, hes a man, Im not jealous.
Having said that, Lu went into the house, trying not tough.
Jing Yiran got up from the ground, wiped the blood off his lips and ran in.
He had been tricked by Jing Rui today. The next time he met this little brat, he would definitely take a detour and never dare to provoke him again! This little girl was much worse than Jing Yichen!
Jing Yichen didnt know how to beat around the bush and always used violence. Jing Rui was the real ck-bellied one!
Jing Yiran was very worried about his son. When he grew up, Jing Zhi would be tortured to death by Jing Rui if he was not smart enough.
On the other hand, Jing Rui got home veryte. He had an extra soup dumpling for dinner and was in a good mood because he had tricked Jing Yiran again.
After the meal, he said to Shangguan ning in a serious tone,Mom, give me a little sister!
Surprised, Shangguan ning asked,I thought you didnt like younger siblings? Why did you change your mind today?
I think that at least the sister you and dad have will be much smarter. I dont even mind those other stupid children. I can protect them with one more sister! Dad can protect so many people, so Im sure Ill be fine too.
Shangguan nings heart ached.
She touched her sons little head and felt that he was under too much pressure at such a young age.
Other children would be ying around happily at this age. They would be very dependent on their parents and would be carefree. They would not think about the hardships in the future.
But Jing Rui was very smart. He was so young, but he already knew how to protect his family. Was this really a good way of education?
She would rather Jing Rui be an ordinary person and have a happy childhood like ordinary children.
Shangguan ning put her son on herp and turned to look at Jing Yichen, who looked calm.
Jing Yichen thought that she was asking him about having a daughter. So he said calmly, Dont worry, Ill give birthter.
Giving birth was not only a chore, but he wouldnt be able to see Shangguan ning for a long time. He could only look at her but not eat her. It would be terrible.
Chapter 877
Chapter 877: Dad, havent you been working hard recently?
Trantor: 549690339
In fact, Shangguan ning had never thought of having a second child so soon. She was already very satisfied with Jing Rui.
However, that was not the question she wanted to ask!
What I wanted to say was, why dont you let our son y for a few more years before he learns from you? Hes so young and under so much pressure, hell be crushed.
Shangguan ning had never doubted Jing Yichens education. She brought it up not because she thought that his way of education was wrong, but because she felt sorry for Jing Rui.
Unexpectedly, before Jing Yichen could answer, Jing Rui said,Mom, I dont feel stressed. Im fine now!
Jing Yichen alsoughed.This is nothing. I was even more stressed than him when I was young.
He was not joking. He had been under more pressure than Jing Rui, because he had lost his mother and had a strange woman and Jing Yiran who could take everything away from him.
After losing his wife, Jing zhongxiu seemed to be frozen. He could no longer smile. He devoted all his love to his son and kept urging him to grow up. However, the way he expressed his love was always cold, without a trace of warmth.
Jing Yichen had suffered much more than Jing Rui when he was young.
Shangguan nings heart ached for Jing Yichen and Jing Rui.
She knew what Jing Yichens childhood was like, otherwise he wouldnt have been so cold and unkind.
The pressure hes under right now is within the normal range. You dont have to worry. Jing Yichen could understand Shangguan nings heartache. In fact, he also felt the same for his son. But this kind of pressure was just the beginning. As Jing Rui got older, he would be under even more pressure and even face the threat of death countless times.
Jing Rui felt that he had been belittled by his mother and was very unhappy.Mom, do I look that weak? Im a super genius, how can I waste such a good talent for fun! Dont say such things in the future, I can definitely do it well!
The more Jing Rui said this, the more Shangguan nings heart ached.
Her eyes were red.Okay, I understand. Ill choose to believe you in the future. But if you feel too tired, let me know. Well just rest for a while, okay?
No problem!
Jing Rui agreed readily and wiped the tears off Shangguan nings eyes.Mommy, dont cry. You wont look good if you cry. Youre the most beautiful when you smile. Thats what Daddy said.
Alright, Illugh more in the future!
Spring had passed and autumn hade. A year had passed by. Jing Rui was already three and a half years old.
He had grown a lot taller, and his personality had be a lot quieter.
When she stood next to Jing Yichen, both of them were shining and cold at the same time.
Jing Rui had spent most of his time with Jing Yichen this year, and his personality had been influenced by Jing Yichen.
He had been imitating Jing Yichen unconsciously, even the way he walked. It would be strange if the father and son didnt look like each other.
As soon as Jing Yichen entered family MUs Hospital with Jing Rui, they attracted everyones attention. The father and son entered the elevator and went up to the tenth floor without any change in their expressions.
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun had been married for more than a year and had given birth to a pair of twin daughters the day before. The elder one was named Zheng yuluo, and the second one was Zheng Yuwei, nicknamed luoluo and Weiwei respectively.
Many people hade to see Zheng Lun and her two daughters today, including Shangguan ning and Zhao Anan. Jing Yichen was here to pick up his wife, Zhenzhen. She had been here since Sixo clock in the morning and had note home until nineo clock in the evening. The father and son finally couldnt help bute to take her home.
In the quiet elevator, Jing Ruis childish voice sounded,
Dad, havent you been working hard recently?
Even though Jing Yichen had a high IQ, he was still confused by his sons question.
What?
Work hard to have a sister with mom! Look at uncle Zheng and aunt Zheng, they got uncle Mu Qing to elerate the hatching process and gave birth to two daughters at once. You and mom can also get uncle Mu Qings help to give birth to multiple babies.
When the elevator door opened, Jing Yichen, who was walking out, almost fell down.
Son, dont you worry too much?
Jing Yichen felt like he was about to break down, but his face was still cold.Yes, I know.
He thought for a while and felt that although it was a little awkward to be asked this question by his son, he couldnt avoid some knowledge that needed to be taught to his son because of this awkwardness.
You will have a sister, but not now. Moreover, hastening the egg may not necessarily achieve good results. Its best to conceive naturally, otherwise the child will easily have defects.
If Shangguan ning had heard this conversation between father and son, she would definitely find a hole to hide in.
On the long corridor on the tenth floor of family MUs Hospital, two figures, one big and one small, were walking at a steady pace.
It waste autumn and Jing Yichen and Jing Rui were wearing the same ck trench coat with white shirts inside, ck custom-made trousers and dark brown leather shoes. They were dressed like father and son.
The patients in the corridor, the doctors, and nurses in the hospital were all dumbfounded.
He was too handsome and too cool!
Whose husband and whose son were these? one was noble and tall, while the other was handsome and cute!
Shangguan ning had juste out of Zheng Luns ward when she saw her husband and son walking towards her like superstars. Before she could say anything, Jing Ruiined,
Mom, are you nning to spend the night in the hospital? do you not want me and Dad anymore?
Everyones eyes were fixed on Shangguan ning. This woman was the husband of the handsome man and the mother of the young man?
This was too lucky!
She was just a little more beautiful and had a better temperament. There was nothing special about her!
Its so unfair!
Shangguan ning ignored all the jealous looks and said to Jing Rui with a smile,How could I not want you two? I saw two little girls who looked exactly the same today, so I couldnt bear to leave. I was just about to leave when you two came.
Jing Rui said in a calm tone,If you like her, then give birth to one yourself. Dads body is so strong. Its no problem for you to have ten children.
The people around burst intoughter. They were all amused by Jing Rui.
Shangguan ning was so embarrassed that her face turned red.
She quickly covered her sons mouth and scolded him in a low voice,Dont talk nonsense!
Jing Yichen said calmly,Ruirui is not talking nonsense. It is not a problem to have ten children. However, its too hard to give birth to so many, so its enough to just have one more.
Chapter 878: Twin wives?
Chapter 878: Twin wives?
Shangguan ning was so embarrassed that she almost died. It was okay to say this at home, but she couldn''t do it outside.
Shangguan ning immediately went back into the ward and pulled the father and son in.
She''d better wait for the people outside to disperse before she left. Otherwise, she would probably go crazy before she even walked out of the hospital!
Zheng Lun had wanted to make a joke when she saw Shangguan ninge back. But when she saw that Jing Yichen was here as well, her smile disappeared.
Zheng Jing, who had been keeping an eye on Zheng Lun, was overjoyed to see Jing Yichen. He got up and walked to Jing Yichen, saying with a flushed face,"Master Jing, what brings you here? That''s great,e and see my two daughters!"
Jing Yichen was not interested in other people''s children, but Jing Rui was. He followed Zheng Jing to the baby''s bed and saw two identical babies. He was amazed.
It was the first time that someone had given birth to twins among the people he was close to.
He looked carefully for a while and soon found the slight differences between the two sisters.
Zheng Jing knew Jing Yichen very well and knew that he was not interested in such things. He had just been too excited about bing a father and had invited Jing Yichen to visit his two precious daughters.
Seeing Jing Yichen standing there without moving, he reacted quickly.
But he had gotten used to Jing Yichen''s indifference, so he was still very happy and got Jing Rui some fruits and desserts.
Jing Rui would not eat anything when he was outside, but Shangguan ning had already peeled an orange and handed it to him. He ate it without any hesitation.
"Mom, which one of them is older?"
Shangguan ning sat at the side and said with a smile,"The one on the left is the older sister called luoluo. The one on the right is the younger sister called Wei Wei."
She liked the twins very much. She was so happy to see Zheng Lun''s two daughters that she almost wanted to stay. She wished that the two beautiful babies were her daughters.
She was a little envious. Why did other people give birth to two children at once, while she only had one?
How good would it be if Ruirui had a twin brother!
Jing Rui said,""I don''t like having twin brothers."
Shangguan ning looked at her son in surprise. How did he know what she was thinking?
"Why don''t you like it? It''s so good to have a brother who looks like you. Wherever you go, you''ll get the attention of others!"
"It''s so awkward to have someone who looks so much like me. It''s better if I''m unique! And if it''s just me, you and dad will be mine. If there are two of you, you won''t be mine alone. "
Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen burst intoughter at the same time. He was still a child who wanted to keep everything to himself, afraid that someone would take away his father''s and mother''s love.
Zheng Lun also smiled. She had liked Jing Rui very much before, and she liked him even more now that he had grown up and be more intelligent.
In fact, she wanted to have a son. It was not because she was biased, but because Jing Rui had left a deep impression on her. She had always wanted to have a child like Jing Rui.
But Zheng Lun was very satisfied to see her twin daughters.
The two babies were born naturally at noon the day before. The two babies had exhausted all her energy. She didn''t even have time to look at her children before she fell into a weak sleep and only woke up at night.
Today, she had recovered a little energy. Other than taking a short nap at noon, she spent the rest of her time staring at the two children without blinking.
When she was pregnant, her pregnancy reaction was very serious. She often could not eat, and in theter stages, her body was a little swollen. Her body was weak to begin with, and she had two children in her stomach, so she had suffered a lot.
Zheng Jing had med himself for many times. He felt that he should not have brought her to Mu Qing for ovtion jabs, otherwise it would have been much easier for her to get pregnant.
Now that Zheng Lun saw her two daughters, she felt that it was worth it no matter how much she had suffered.
She especially liked twins. In the future, she would have two identical daughters who could y at home. In the future, they could go to school together and would no longer have to worry about not having friends.
Not all children were as talented as Jing Rui. He was so smart that he could ignore loneliness and did not need help from others. As long as others did not cause him any trouble, he would be happy.
For ordinary children, it was better to have two people aspanions.
Zheng Lun felt that she had had a happy childhood with Zheng Jing as her brother. So she hoped that her children could have apanion.
She looked at Jing Rui''s serious face and suddenly teased him,""Ruirui, why don''t you take them as your wives?"
Shangguan ning felt likeughing when she heard Zheng Lun''s words. She held back herughter and teased her son."Oh my, your Auntie Zheng is so generous. She''s actually willing to give you both of her daughters as your wives. Hurry up and thank her!"
Zheng Jingughed when he heard Zheng Lun''s words. It must be a joke to marry both of his daughters to Ruirui, but he did want to marry one of them to Jing Rui.
Jing Yichen was the only one who looked calm in the room. He didn''t care about his son''s answer at all, or rather, he had already known his son''s answer.
Jing Rui did not feel embarrassed at all when he was being stared at by three people. He said calmly,""I won''t consider marriage before I''m thirty."
It was funny and cute for a three-and-a-half-year-old to seriously say that he would not consider marriage before the age of 30!
Shangguan ning and the othersughed. They didn''t take it seriously. They were all children. It was no big deal to joke around.
No one could tell what the future would be like. They would not arrange a marriage just because they had a good rtionship with each other.
However, these people were very familiar with each other. They knew each other well. After the children were raised, they would also know each other well. It might be a good choice for them to get married!
No one took it seriously, except for Jing Rui.
Therefore, for a long time toe, he would try his best to avoid meeting the twins, in case the Zheng family decided to marry one of them to him on a whim.
On the way home, Jing Rui asked Shangguan ning seriously for the second time,"Mom, you have to promise me that I''ll make my own decisions in my marriage in the future. You can''t interfere at will."
Shangguan ning couldn''t stopughing. She knew that her son must have been frightened today.
She held her son''s small hand and promised him with a smile,""Of course, you have absolute freedom in your marriage. I won''t interfere until you''re thirty years old! If you still don''t get married after you turn 30, then don''t me me for interfering!"
Chapter 879: My daughter will not marry your son!
Chapter 879: My daughter will not marry your son!
Jing Yiran had be an official doctor in family MU''s Hospital, and he was quite famous. He was not only a good doctor, but also a handsome man who liked to joke around. Female patients all came to him because they thought that Jing Yiran would help them get better faster.
Of course, the number of male patients who came to him for treatment had also increased significantly. Even Luo Hao had asked him to remove his Appendix.
To remove an appendectomy, one had to take off their pants and put their lower body on the operating table.
Luo Hao felt a little embarrassed, but he didn''t want to have his appendectomy done by anyone else, so he still trusted Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran had done this kind of minor operation many times. He didn''t think that it was inappropriate at all because they were both of the same sex. He even teased Luo Hao,"Yo, little Luo, you''re pretty rich!"
Jing Yiran finished his work for the day and went to Zheng Lun''s ward.
Zheng Lun had already fallen asleep, and only Zheng Jing was still by their side, looking gentle and satisfied.
Jing Yiran snorted and said, "You''re so happy to have two daughters, you''re such a loser!"
Zheng Jing was in a good mood today, so he was not angry at Jing Yiran''s words. He looked at Jing Yiran, who was dressed in a white coat and looked like a proper doctor. He couldn''t help but say, "I''m happy to have a daughter. If you have the ability, don''t let your son get married in the future! When Jing Zhi was born, I don''t know who was the one who suspected that his son was deaf, mute, and mentally retarded, but he still had the nerve to be a doctor. I think you''d better take off your white coat and go back and learn from old man mu for a few more years before you can be a doctor!"
Jing Yiran felt a bit embarrassed.
He had been suspecting that there was something wrong with his son for a long time because Jing Zhi didn''t cry like other children. He ate and slept all day and didn''t make a fuss at all. He was easy to take care of, except for his huge appetite.
The two nannies who fed him praised him for being obedient. Compared to the noisy musen and muduo, Jing Zhi was really easy to take care of.
Butter, when the two wet nurses couldn''t feed Jing Zhi enough, he burst into tears.
Jing Yiran had found five wet nurses for his son. If they couldn''t feed his son, he would be a failure as a father!
However, her son''s stomach was like a bottomless pit. He could drink as much milk as he wanted, and he would usually drink it in his sleep.
Mu Wensheng took Jing Zhi''s blood for testing andpared it with Lu''s blood.
The test results shocked everyone!
The virus in Jing Zhi''s body was ten times more than that in Lu ''s.
However, his endurance had also increased, and his cells were more adaptable.
Even so, mu Wensheng was sure that Jing Zhi would end up like Lu in the future. He would need to change his blood constantly, or the virus would eventually take his life.
But there was no way to know how often a blood transfusion was needed. Jing Zhi was a year old. His body temperature was almost the same as a normal person when he was born, but now that he was one year old, his body temperature was almost five degrees lower than normal.
The virus had brought him serious hidden dangers, but at the same time, it had also given him various superhuman abilities.
His sense of hearing, sight, smell, physical strength, and speed were all more than ten times that of an ordinary person!
He was only one year old, but his strength was alreadyparable to an adult ''s.
Of all his abilities, the mostmon one was his intelligence!
His IQ was only slightly smarter than an ordinary child ''s, and there was still a long way to go before he could be considered a genius.
But Jing Yiran was already very satisfied. As long as his son was not mentally retarded, he could do anything.
The little boy went out to y with Lu every day. He was pretty, cute and very likable. Jing Tianyuan and Mo Lan both liked him. They had given Jing Zhi a big gift for his first birthday a few days ago. Even Jing zhongxiu and Jing Yichen had given him gifts. Even if Jing Zhi didn''t do anything, he could still live a good life with the gifts from the four of them.
Jing Yiran let out a sigh of relief when he saw that his son was fine. But his suspicion of his son had be a joke to everyone.
Luckily, Jing Yiran was very thick-skinned.
Zheng Jingughed at him, but he quickly recovered from the embarrassment. He shamelessly pointed at the two little girls and said,"My son is so powerful. Why don''t you give your two daughters to my son as his wives? Don''t worry, I''ll definitely treat them both like my own daughters!"
Of course Zheng Jing wouldn''t be worried.
He quickly protected his two daughters and said with a cold face,""Move aside! Don''t even think about my daughter, she already has a lover! You want both of my daughters to marry your son? why don''t you go to heaven!"
Jing Yiran was surprised."She was just born at noon yesterday. How could she be reserved so soon?!"
Why did these words sound so wrong!
What was a reservation?
Zheng Jing''s face darkened."Get out of here. My daughter will not marry your son even if she doesn''t have a master. With a yboy like you, who knows if your son will be a yboy in the future?" My two daughters are precious to me. If you dare to mess with Jing Zhi, don''t me me for falling out with you!"
"Tsk! How am I fickle? Don''t you see that I only have one wife? He had yed around with women before marriage because he had no choice but to put on an act. How could he take it seriously? Hurry up, which daughter have you reserved? I''ll give the other one to my son. My son will suffer a little and marry your ugly girl!"
Jing Yiran took a closer look at the two sleeping animals and said with a frown,"Why do these two look so simr? I can''t tell who is who at all! Won''t there be a mix-up in the future?"
Zheng Jing couldn''t stand it anymore. He dragged Jing Yiran out of the room, thinking that he was much stronger than him.
"Get lost! My daughter will never marry into your family!"
He actually dared to despise his daughter for being ugly! He was so angry!
Jing Yiran muttered "stingy" when he was kicked out of the ward. Then he started to wonder who Zheng Jing had reserved his daughter for.
The only boys she knew were Jing Rui, Jing Zhi and mu Sen. Had Zheng Jing given one of his daughters to Jing Rui and the other to mu Sen?
Aiya, there were too many monks and too little meat!
When his son grew up, he would have to teach him some flirting skills. Maybe he could marry both of Zheng Jing''s daughters.
They were twins. Zheng Lun was so beautiful and so was Zheng Jing. The two girls would definitely be beautiful in the future. If he married both of them, his son would not be able to enjoy all the sex!

When Jing Yiran got home, he saw Jing Zhi wearing a hat that Lu had just bought for him. He called out to him with a smile,Son,e here!
Jing Zhi ran to him with his hat in hand.Dad, did you buy me something nice to eat again?
Jing Yiran took out a box of chocte from his ck bag and gave it to Jing Zhi.This is for you. Ive changed it to hazelnut vored today. Take a look and see if you like it!
Jing Zhi was only one year old, so he couldnt tell what vor it was. He loved sweet ones.
He held the chocte in his arms happily and shouted ording to what Jing Yiran had taught him countless times,Daddy, I love you!
Although Jing Yiran had heard his son call him that many times, he was still so happy that his eyes were squinted. It was much easier to teach his son how to express his love than to teach Lu.
He picked Jing Zhi up in his arms andughed.My good son, Daddy loves you too!
Lu, who was tidying up her sons clothes, couldnt help but smile when she heard the father and son confessing to each other.
Honey, Im taking our son out to y for a while!
It was already the middle of the night. Any woman would have stopped him from taking his son out to y. But Lu used to stay in the house during the day and go out at night, so she did not feel that there was anything wrong with going out at night.
Jing Yiran carried his son on his shoulder and took him out of the vi. They walked on the quiet but bright street.
Jing Zhi sat on his fathers shoulder, dancing with joy. He loved the feeling of being high up.
He opened the box of choctes that Jing Yiran had given him, tore it open with his teeth and started to eat happily.
At night, most people had gone home to rest. Only a few barbecue stalls by the roadside were still doing well.
Jing Yiran ordered dozens of skewers and then continued to walk around with his son on his shoulder.
Dad, this smells so good. I want to eat it too!
Jing Zhi was a true foodie. His digestive system was like a deer S. He digested and absorbed the nutrients very quickly, so he could provide all the nutrients his body needed.
He would basically forget to stuff anything he saw into his mouth. Now that he smelled the fragrance of meat, how could he resist?
No, youre too young to eat barbeque. Its not good for your body. You should eat chocte!
Jing Zhi couldnt eat any meat and could only smell it. He burst into tears.I want to eat too, I want to eat too!
Jing Yiran felt helpless. Jing Zhi must have realized by now that crying was very effective. So he would start crying whenever he was asked to.
Then, he could basically get what he wanted.
In Mu Qings words, Jing Zhi had inherited Jing Yirans shamelessness and shamelessness.
Jing Yiran handed a few skewers to his son.Alright, alright, dont cry, Ill give it to you! But you havent even grown all your teeth, how are you going to eat this?
Jing Zhi couldnt care less about the teeth. He took the skewers, removed the meat with his front teeth, and then swallowed the meat.
Jing Yiran was a man and he didnt care much about his son. Seeing his son eat the meat, he was so happy that he carried him to the beach.
Fortunately, Jing Zhis digestive system was strong. Otherwise, a one-year-old child would have a stomachache the next day after eating so much barbecue.
The sea breeze was a bit cold. Jing Yiran took off his coat and put it on Jing Zhi.
He spent most of his time working in the hospital during the day. He could only bring his son out to y at night. He wanted to apany his son as he grew up. He did not want to be like himself in the past, where he did not have a virtuous mother or a loving father.
Jing Zhi loved wearing his fathers clothes. Of course, he liked his mothers clothes as well. He liked wearing adult clothes and shoes.
He was wearing Jing Yirans coat and running on the beach, holding his chocte tightly.
Dad, I can run very fast now!
Jing Zhi fell to the ground as soon as he finished his sentence.
He was very tough and the beach was very soft. After falling, he got up and continued to run as if nothing had happened.
Daddy, I can fly!
Daddy, you cant run as fast as mommy!
Dad, is there a mermaid princess in the sea?
The moon was bright and the stars were bright. The waves crashed against the beach, rolling upyers of white spray. Jing Zhis clear, childlike voice echoed on the quiet beach, making the night seem warm and full of childlike innocence.
Jing Yiran was jogging behind his son. Heughed happily and said,Silly son, theres no such thing as a beautiful princess in the sea. The animations are all lies!
Jing Zhi stopped and raised his head in confusion.Where is the princess?
Jing Yiran thought for a moment and said,Oh, right now, there are two newborn babies in the hospital. We can kidnap them home!
Doesnt the princess Live in the sea?
Jing Zhi still didnt understand. In the cartoon his mother had taken him to the cinema today, the princess lived in the sea.
Jing Yiran held his sons hand and walked forward.The mermaid princess may live in the sea, but your Princess must live onnd! Ill take you to the hospital tomorrow to see the two little Sisters. You have to work hard and strive to marry the two sisters!
Jing Zhi didnt quite understand, but he understood that he could go to the hospital tomorrow. It was fun in the hospital, and there would be a lot of food for him.
He took Jing Yirans hand and walked forward happily. Then he saw a small figure in the sea.
He immediately shouted,big brother! Big brother!
There was only one person in the world that Jing Zhi would call brother, and that was Jing Rui.
Jing Yiran had taught his son that except for Jing Rui, no one was allowed to call anyone brother or sister.
However, it was the middle of the night and the sea was dark. Even if the moonlight was good, he couldnt see anything at first nce!
Jing Yiran rubbed his eyes but still found nothing.
He patted his sons head and said,have you gone crazy thinking about your brother? Your brother is not here! Its the middle of the night. Hes only three and a half years old. If hes swimming in there, hell be crazy ...
Before he could finish, he saw a small figure floating up from the sea and slowly walking towards the shore.
After a while, another tall figure also walked out of the sea and slowly came ashore.
Jing Yiran was startled. Was this father and son crazy? why did theye to take a bath in the sea at midnight? more importantly, it waste autumn and the temperature of the sea was very low.
Chapter 881: Big brother
Chapter 881: Big brother
When the two of them got closer, Jing Yiran was sure that the two figures in the sea were Jing Yichen and Jing Rui.
He looked at Jing Zhi with a strange expression and asked,"son, do you have irvoyance?" It''s so dark and so far away, but you can still see clearly?"
Jing Zhi was confused,"dad, can''t you see?" I think it''s very clear!"
Soon, he stopped caring about Jing Yiran and ran to Jing Rui,ughing.""Big brother!"
Jing Rui was only wearing a pair of swimming trunks. He dodged at once when he saw Jing Zhi lunging at him, but Jing Zhi missed him and fell onto the beach.
Jing Zhi immediately got up, picked up the chocte on the ground, and threw himself at Jing Rui.
"Haha, big brother, I''ve caught you!"
Although Jing Zhi was young, he was very strong. Jing Rui was no match for him and could not get away from him.
"Let go!" Jing Rui was a little annoyed. He was not wearing any clothes and it was awkward to be held by Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi was not afraid of him at all. He hugged Jing Rui tightly and called out to him,""Brother, I''m Jing Zhi!"
Jing Rui was almost strangled to death by him.
"Nonsense, of course I know who you are! Quickly let go!"
It''s disgusting to drool so much! Was Jing Zhi really not an idiot?
"If you don''t run, I''ll let go!"
Jing Rui''s face turned red and he was out of breath. He had no choice but to agree. "I''m not running!"
Jing Zhi let go of his brother''s hand happily when he heard that he was not going to run away. He gave Jing Rui the chocte that had already melted."Big brother, here''s some chocte for you!"
Jing Zhi didn''t like anyone else eating his food except for Jing Rui, because he was always hungry. He couldn''t even eat enough for himself and he didn''t want to share his food with anyone else.
But he liked Jing Rui!
He felt that his brother was very amazing, so he was willing to give him delicious food even if he was starving.
However, he was destined to be disappointed.
The chocte in his hand had not only melted, but there was also a lot of sand on it. Jing Rui would not be able to eat it!
"I''m not eating it. It''s so dirty. If you want to eat it, you can eat it yourself!"
Jing Zhi was still too young to understand why Jing Rui refused to eat his chocte.
But it was good that Jing Rui didn''t eat it, because he didn''t want to let Jing Rui have it.
Jing Zhi lifted his hand and stuffed the dirty piece of chocte into his mouth.
Jing Rui couldn''t stand it anymore and grabbed his hand.""Don''t eat it!"
Wasn''t he too stupid? He really ate it when he was asked to! How did second uncle raise his child?!
Jing Rui pulled Jing Zhi''s hand and walked to the sea, washing the chocte off his hand.
Jing Zhi immediately burst into tears and cried,"brother, you''re not good!" My chocte is gone! Compensate me for my chocte!"
Jing Yichen was standing on the beach in only a pair of swimming trunks. He didn''t say anything when he saw his son taking Jing Zhi to wash his hands. He didn''t even look at Jing Yiran. He just turned around and went to the beach to get his and Jing Rui''s clothes.
Jing Yiran did not take his son''s cry to heart. It was not a big deal. Jing Rui had been very nice to Jing Zhi, so he was not worried that Jing Rui would push his son into the sea.
On the contrary, he thought that it would be good for Jing Zhi to torture Jing Rui when he cried.
Jing Yiran didn''t care about his son at all. He followed Jing Yichen and said with a smile,"Brother, why did you bring my nephew out to y in the middle of the night? It''s a dark and windy night, and the sea is so cold. Besides, it''s so far from your house. Wouldn''t it be too expensive toe here?"
Jing Yichen ignored him and continued to put on his clothes.
Jing Yiran was a Chatterbox. It was fine if she ignored him, but once she started talking to him, he would be a Chatterbox. He was so annoying!
But Jing Yichen ignored Jing Yiran, which didn''t dampen his enthusiasm at all. He looked Jing Yichen up and down and started to get jealous of Jing Yichen''s body.
No one knew how Jing Yichen had trained, but there was not a single bit of fat on his body. His muscles were smooth and strong, full of explosive power.
He looked at his own body. Although he had muscles, they were not perfect.
It seemed that he had to work harder. Jing Yichen was so hardworking that he had to swim in the middle of the night. Swimming could make one look fit and fit.
However, Jing Yichen did not bring Jing Rui out for fun or exercise at all. He just wanted Jing Rui to get used to the darkness and loneliness.
The sea here was deeper, and because of its remote location, there were few people, which was very suitable for training.
It was the first time that Jing Yichen had trained Jing Rui in this way. Jing Rui had adapted well and the training had been sessful. The difficulty could be increased in the future.
Jing Yichen got dressed and said to Jing Rui, who was being pestered by Jing Zhi,"Ruirui, it''s time to go home,"
Jing Rui wanted to cry."Father, he is always holding my leg. I can''t walk!"
"Take your son home!" Jing Yichen turned to Jing Yiran.
"It wasn''t easy for him to meet his brother, so of course he wanted to get closer! You can''t be so cruel to destroy a child''s love for his brother!"
Jing Yichen was also having a headache.
He felt that Jing Zhi''s persistence must have been inherited from Jing Yiran. The father and son were just as clingy!
"Take him away, or I''ll throw him into the sea."
"Don ''t! You''re Jing Zhi''s uncle. How could you be so cruel to your own nephew? His young heart will be greatly hurt!"
Jing Yichen walked towards Jing Zhi without saying a word. It was obvious that he was going to throw Jing Zhi into the sea if Jing Yiran didn''t do anything.
Jing Yichen was a cold-blooded animal who only treated his own son as a human. Jing Yiran dared not to challenge his bottom line. He quickly took Jing Zhi into his arms, in case Jing Yichen threw him into the sea.
Jing Rui was finally free after Jing Yiran took Jing Zhi away. He looked down and saw five clear scratches on his calf where Jing Zhi had grabbed him.
Jing Rui also wanted to throw the strong boy into the sea.
Jing Yichen also saw the scratches on Jing Rui''s legs. He wrapped his son''s legs with a white handkerchief, put on his clothes and was ready to take him home.
Jing Zhi shouted as soon as he saw his brother leaving."Brother, don''t leave me, I want to follow you! Big brother!"
He wasn''t big, but his voice wasn''t small, and it was a little shrill.
The word "brother" echoed on the beach. It sounded like an abandoned child.

Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui did not dare to let him follow him. It had only been a short while, and the workers leg was wounded. He might even lose his life if he stayed longer.
Jing Zhis strength was frightening, and he didnt know how to control his strength. Shed better stay away from him.
Dad, lets go!
Jing Rui walked forward as soon as he finished speaking, as if Jing Zhi was a ferocious beast.
Jing Yichen couldnt help butugh. He had taught Jing Rui very well. He was always able to deal with any situation calmly. He was very good at tricking people. People were always afraid of him. He had never seen him avoid people like this.
He strode forward and held his sons hand. He smiled and said,Lets go home!
Two figures, one big and one small, were walking on the beach. The moonlight elongated their shadows, making them look like the most beautiful painting in the night.
However, the atmosphere of the painting was ruined by the shrill cry behind them.
Big brother! You take me away! Ill go home with you!
Jing Zhi kept calling him brother. Jing Yiran loved his sons father so much. How could he bear to hurt his son?
He caught up with Jing Zhi in his arms.
Brother, walk slower! Jing Yiran shouted from behind.
Brother, walk slower! Jing Zhi said, imitating his brother.
Jing Yichen and Jing Rui walked even faster when they heard the conversation.
Jing Rui was really scared of Jing Zhi. Jing Zhi was only one year old and knew nothing. He could not be scolded or beaten, and he would not listen to reason. It was aplete curse!
Jing Yichen was also a little scared of Jing Yiran. He was so good at pestering and he could not beat him up as easily as he used to.
Jing Rui walked too slowly because he was too young. So Jing Yichen picked him up and strode forward.
But Jing Yiran still caught up with her.
He stopped Jing Yichen from going any further and said breathlessly,Why are you walking so fast? I dont eat people!
Your nagging is more terrifying than eating people!
Move! Jing Yichen said coldly.
Why did this father and son not sleep in the middle of the night ande to the beach to y? They had finally found a quiet and clean beach, but now they had to change ces again!
Don t! Its not easy for us to meet you two. Lets talk together. I still have a few questions to ask you!
Speak! Jing Yichen said through gritted teeth.
Are Zheng Jings twin daughters reserved for Jing Rui? I asked him to give one to Jing Zhi today, but he refused and said that his daughter is already taken!
Jing Yichens face darkened.
Could Jing Yiran be more normal?
The children were all so young. How could he give it to anyone he said he would? it was just a joke, and he actually took it seriously.
No, it has nothing to do with Ruirui! He said coldly.
Jing Rui, who was being held by Jing Yichen, said,I dont like twins!
Jing Yiran knew right away that they were not interested in the twins. Otherwise, Jing Yichen would have imed the ownership of Jing Rui.
He was so happy that he patted Jing Zhis butt.Quickly thank your brother for giving you the twins! Youre in luck in the future!
Jing Zhi didnt understand what his father was talking about, but he still thanked him.Thank you, brother!
Jing Rui did not say anything. He was not interested in the ugly twins at all. Compared to them, he found the swimming session more interesting.
But even if he didnt want to marry the twins, Jing Zhi couldnt possibly marry both of them.
It was monogamous in China now. Not only would the Zheng family not agree to it, but thew would also not recognize it.
In order not to cause any unnecessary misunderstandings, Jing Rui rified,I have nothing to do with the twins, so dont me me for this in the future! If you want to get engaged, you should take Jing Zhi to the Zheng family. Its useless to tell me.
That might not be the case!
Jing Yiran didnt think that Zheng Jing would help him. He thought that as long as Jing Rui didnt marry the twins, it would be much easier for Jing Zhi to marry them.
He felt that it was better to find a childhood sweetheart for his son. When he grew up, marriage would be a matter of course. He would not be lonely for so long like him.
A wife had to be trained from a young age!
But, a man must keep his word. When you grow up, youre not allowed to fight with your brother for his wife!
Jing Rui sighed helplessly. Was it because he had been too nice to Jing Yiran recently that he had forgotten about the past?
He had been giving in to Jing Zhi, but he would never give in to Jing Yiran.
Jing Yichen said calmly,if you have the time to worry about this, you should focus on teaching Jing Zhi. You dont look like someone who can educate a child. From tomorrow onwards, its better to let Grandpa take care of him.
Jing Zhi had been brought up by Jing Tianyuan, but he was too young to learn anything other than eating. So Jing Tianyuan thought that Jing Zhi could learn from his parents before he turned three and then from Jing Tianyuan.
He was different from Jing Rui, who had matured early. It was more difficult to educate him and he was a foodie. He wanted to eat everything he saw, but would cry if he couldn t. Jing Tianyuan didnt want to take care of him after a few days.
Jing Yiran didnt want to hand his son over to Jing Tianyuan so soon. It was better to wait until his son was a little older before he went through the abnormal education.
He was afraid that Jing Zhi would really be sent to Jing Tianyuans ce, so he ran away with his son in his arms. Jing Zhis voice could be heard from afar.
Jing Zhi was easy to please. He had been crying for his brother, but when Jing Yiran bought him some skewers, he forgot about his brother and started to eat happily.
The next day at work, Jing Yiran took his son to the hospital.
He put on his white coat and handed Jing Zhi the roses he had bought earlier.Son, lets go and find your wife!
Jing Zhi was drooling at the sight of the Rose petals. He was about to take a bite when Jing Yiran covered his mouth.
You cant eat this! This is for your wife, you wont have a wife anymore if you eat it!
Jing Yiran stuffed a piece of chocte into his sons mouth, saving the two beautifully wrapped roses.
He went to Zheng Luns ward with Jing Zhi in his arms. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Zhao Anan, mu duo and mu Sen surrounding the twins.
Zhao Anan, take your son and get out of here. Luoluo and Weiwei will be my daughter-inw from now on. As for mu duo ... If she cant get married in the future, my son can also suffer a little and marry her!
Chapter 883
Chapter 883: The virus infection (1)
Trantor: 549690339
If Jing Yiran had not been holding Jing Zhi in his arms, Zhao Anan would have kicked him.
He actually wanted to marry three!
In your dreams!
Zhao Anan said angrily,with a father like you, Jing Zhi will be led astray by you! I definitely wont be able to get a wife in the future!
Nonsense, look at how romantic my son is, he even brought roses for his future first and second wife! Unlike you, you actually have the nerve to let your sone-handed. I think that since your family is so rich, you should at least give him a few tens of millions as a betrothal gift!
Jing Yiran said as he turned to Zheng Lun,Lun, you see, Zhao Anan is so insincere. You cant hand your daughter over to such a stingy person. Lets choose our Jing Zhi. Hes handsome and generous!
In fact, Zheng Lun had not talked to Jing Yiran much. But she always felt that Jing Yiran was very funny and friendly, so she didnt feel too distant from him.
I like Jing Zhi too, she said softly, smiling.Hes a good boy. Luoluo and Weiwei will like him very much.
Jing Yiran understood that although Zheng Lun had put it in a nice way, she actually didnt agree to Jing Zhis proposal.
Hmph, you dont want my son to be your son-inw now, but dont regret it when my son grows up! He said angrily.
Why didnt he like his son? it was as if Jing Zhi was an unlikable person!
Look at his son. He was a man of striking appearance. He would definitely be a handsome young man in the future. Maybe he would take after Lu and never age!
It was worth it to marry Jing Zhi!
Jing Yiran came out of Zheng Luns ward with his son in his arms. He decided to send his son to Jing Tianyuan as soon as possible. Jing Zhi was going to be a sessful man who all women would love. Let those short-sighted women regret it!
After a few steps, Jing Zhi shouted excitedly,Big brother!
Jing Yiran looked around but did not see Jing Rui. He said helplessly,Son, are you possessed? I didnt see you miss your mother and me that much, but why do you miss that little bastard Jing Rui so much?
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold voice came from behind him,Ask Jing Zhi to stay away from Jing Rui!
Jing Yiran shivered and turned around immediately. He saw Jing Yichens cold and indifferent face, which indicated that Jing Yichen was angry.
It couldnt be, he didnt say anything!
She had only called Jing Rui a little bastard. He used to say this a lot, but Jing Yichen didnt have any reaction.
Jing Yiran asked carefully,brother, whats wrong? Why is your face so sour today?
Jing Zhi mimicked him and asked,brother, whats wrong? Its so stinky!
Jing Yichens face turned dark. He turned around and walked away, followed by Jing Yiran.
He knew Jing Yichen better than he knew himself. Although he was cold to others, he would not be angered by anything. There must be another reason why he was angry today.
Jing Yiran followed Jing Yichen into a Ward with Jing Zhi in his arms. He saw that mu Wensheng and Jing Tianyuan were also in the ward with Jing Rui. Mu Qing, the Dean, stood aside, as if he was helping mu Wensheng.
The moment Jing Yiran came in, everyone in the ward red at him.
If looks could kill, Jing Yiran felt that he would have turned into a dead body immediately.
Whats wrong? he asked, baffled.Do I look so evil?
Jing Zhi was oblivious to everyones gazes. He only cared about Jing Rui on the bed. He shouted excitedly,Big brother! Big brother!
He called out to Jing Rui many times, but Jing Rui did not respond. He suddenly burst into tears.Dad, brother is ignoring me! I like my brother, I want to sleep with him!
Jing Yiran looked down and his face turned pale.
Jing Rui was lying on the bed, his face purple and his breathing weak. His fair left leg had turned purple and was two times bigger than his right leg.
Whats wrong with Ruirui? He, he, he ... He was still finest night!
Jing Yiran had already thought of a possibility. He held his son tightly and was so nervous that he could not even speak properly.
Jing Tianyuan said coldly,Didnt I tell you to look after Jing Zhi? Jing Rui was still finest night. Did he see you? why did he be like this after one night?
Jing Yiran threw a look at his son subconsciously and stammered,No... No way! Jing Zhi, he, he, he ... He only hugged Jing Ruist night!
There was a dangerous virus inside Jing Zhis body that could kill a normal person quickly, but usually, as long as one didnt touch his blood, they wouldnt be in danger.
He and Lu had been holding Jing Zhi every day, and nothing had happened.
Jing Zhi also felt that the atmosphere was not right. His great-grandpa was very fierce today. He shrank into Jing Yirans arms in fear and didnt dare to call him brother.
Mu Wensheng looked serious. He had been so angry that he wanted to give his apprentice Jing Yiran a good scolding. But seeing Jing Zhi and him being so careful, he couldnt say anything.
Yiran, Jing Ruis leg was scratched by Jing Zhist night. The virus in Jing Zhis body passed into Jing Ruis blood through his nails and caused arge number of deaths in his normal cells.
What?
Jing Yiran was so shocked that he almost threw Jing Zhi to the ground.
Jing Rui had been infected by the virus?
Although Jing Yiran called Jing Rui little bastard every day, he actually liked this nephew of his very much. He had never taken it to heart, even though he had been tortured badly by Jing Rui.
To him, Jing Rui was just a child. He liked to y tricks on people, which showed that he was still a child with apetitive heart. An adult like Jing Yichen didnt care about anyone at all, let alone pranking others.
Jing Yiran might have wanted Jing Rui dead. At that time, he had been very concerned about the properties of family Jing and wanted to have all the people of family Jing dead so that he could have all the properties.
But now, he had changed his mind. The properties of family Jing were no longer attractive to him. He only saw Jing Rui as his nephew and liked to y with him. He liked to have his son y with him. This was what he had been looking forward to.
When he was young, he had always wanted to y with his brother, but he realized that there was always a huge gap between him and his brother. No matter how hard he tried, he could not cross it.
Chapter 884: The virus infection (2)
Chapter 884: The virus infection (2)
Now that Jing Zhi had Jing Rui as his brother, Jing Yiran had never stopped him from getting close to his brother.
Although Jing Rui had never been nice to Jing Zhi and had evenined that Jing Zhi would Rob him of his property in the future, he had never done anything to Jing Zhi. He had unconsciously treated Jing Zhi as his own brother and would take care of him.
Jing Zhi loved to eat delicious food. When Jing Rui was with him, he never took it from him. He always let Jing Zhi eat first.
Jing Zhi was covered in tears and snot, and he would wipe them away with a small handkerchief.
When Jing Zhi had just learned how to walk, he had always fallen down, and Jing Rui had helped him up.
His hands were full of chocte and sandst night. Jing Rui had washed it off for him, even though he disliked it. He did not say anything even when Jing Zhi bit him and asked him topensate for his chocte.
A child''s world was simple. If you were good to me, I would like you.
The reason why Jing Zhi liked to follow Jing Rui so much was that they were both children, and he could feel that Jing Rui was good to him.
Jing Rui was different from Jing Yichen. It was a good thing for Jing Zhi to have a brother like him, and Jing Yiran did not want anything to happen to Jing Rui.
Jing Yiran was so anxious that he broke out in cold sweat. Hurry up and treat Ruirui! If the treatment is slow, the virus will spread to the whole body!"
"It has spread to the whole body," mu Wensheng frowned and shook his head.
"Ah? So fast?"
Jing Yiran almost burst into tears. Jing Rui''s leg had not been scratched by Jing Zhi and he had lost his life.
Jing Yichen would kill him and then kill Jing Zhi.
Son, you''re in big trouble this time!
"The virus in Jing Zhi''s body has evolved and is much stronger than the one in Lu''s body. It has a strong ability to devour cells and Jing Rui is too young to resist the virus. If it was an adult, it wouldn''t be so serious. "
Mu Wensheng''s hair had turned much whiter.
Although the virus inside Jing Zhi''s body originated from Lu, it had evolved to a very strong level. He had been studying it for a whole year but had not found any breakthrough. The only thing he was sure of was that Jing Zhi must have had his first blood transfusion when he was two years old, or he would have died.
Jing Zhi was still fine, but Jing Rui was in great danger because of the virus.
Which pervert created these viruses!
If the entire human race was infected with this virus, where would they go to change their blood? At that time, the entire human race would be extinct!
A bunch of unreasonable lunatics!
He had been a doctor for decades, but he had no idea how to treat this virus, let alone other doctors.
"There''s no good way now. Let''s try blood transfusion first!"
Mu Wensheng came to the hospital early in the morning and tried all kinds of drugs for Jing Rui, but none of them worked.
Fortunately, the virus had slowed down and Jing Rui''s body could still withstand it for a while.
Family MU''s Hospital had prepared enough blood for Jing Zhi since he was born in case of emergency.
Now, he could give it to Jing Rui.
Fortunately, the brothers had the same blood type. Otherwise, they would have to collect their blood again and then carry out theplicated purification work, which would take a lot of time and Jing Rui would not have been able to save them in time.
Jing Rui was soon sent to the operation room, and Mu Qing and mu Wensheng began the long operation.
Jing Yichen had been standing outside the operating room the whole time while Jing Tianyuan went in.
Jing Yiran carried Jing Zhi, who was unusually quiet today, and walked to his side. It was a while before he gathered his courage and said,"Brother, I ... I''m sorry. I didn''t take good care of the child."
Jing Yichen threw a cold look at him and then strode away, ignoring him.
Jing Yiran smiled bitterly. He patted Jing Zhi''s head and said,"Son, you almost killed your brother and now my brother is ignoring me. What do you think I should do?"
Jing Zhi was confused and a little scared."Dad, is big brother going to die?"
At his age, he still didn''t understand what was life and death, but from the expression of his Lord, he knew that death was definitely not a good thing.
Jing Yiran consoled his son."Don''t worry. Your brother is very lucky. He will not die." However, even if he doesn''t die, I''m afraid you won''t be able to follow him in the future. I''ll have to cut your nails first when we get home, so that you won''t hurt anyone else. "
Jing Zhi asked confusedly,"dad, did I cause my brother to be hospitalized?" Brother, you''re not going to y with me anymore?"
Jing Yiran kissed his son''s face. He felt very sad, but still pretended to be calm."I don''t me you! In dad''s heart, you''re the best!"
His son was still so young and didn''t know anything. He couldn''t be med for having a virus in his body.
Jing Yiran didn''t want his son to think that he was a monster. He only wanted to give his son a happy and carefree childhood.
However, his simple wish seemed to be impossible to fulfill.
It was already night time when Shangguan ning got to know that her son had been infected with the virus.
She rushed into the hospital like a mad woman and was about to enter the operating room when Jing Yichen stopped her.
"Ning, don''t be rash. Ruirui will be fine!"
"Let me go, I want to go in and see my son! Why won''t you tell me? If Anan didn''t spill the beans today, I wouldn''t have known that Ruirui was undergoing a blood transfusion!"
Shangguan ning was crying so hard that she called Zhao Anan at night. She heard from Zhao Anan that Jing Rui had been scratched by Jing Zhi and had been infected by the virus in Jing Zhi''s body. Mu Wensheng was changing his blood.
This was simply a bolt from the blue!
For a while, she felt cold all over and her mind went nk,pletely losing the ability to think!
Her son was her life!
If anything happened to Jing Rui, how could she live as his mother?
No wonder Jing Yichen had left with Jing Rui before dawn, and no wonder the father and son had note home for lunch.
It turned out that such a big thing had happened!
Jing Yichen held Shangguan ning who was crying her heart out and said in a hoarse voice,"I didn''t tell you because I didn''t want you to worry. I wanted to tell you when our son is better."
Shangguan ning''s heart would ache if she saw Jing Rui''s current state. Jing Yichen didn''t dare to let her see or know about it.
Since mu Wensheng had said that he was confident, Jing Rui was not in the most critical moment yet. He did not want Shangguan ning to be worried.
It was enough for him to bear this torture alone!
Chapter 885
Chapter 885: The virus infection (3)

He had not taken good care of Jing Rui, and that was why Jing Rui was in such a crisis.
Jing Yichen rarely regretted anything, because he felt that everything he had done was right. Even if he had done something wrong, it was useless to regret.
But now, he regretted it.
He regretted that he had taken his son to the trainingst night, regretted that he had gone to that Sea area, and regretted that he had not protected his son in time after meeting Jing Yiran and Jing Zhi.
Even though he knew that it was useless to regret, he was still very regretful.
Jing Yichen was the one who was suffering the most. Every second he spent outside the operating room was torture for him.
However, he firmly believed that his son would wake up. This was his greatest motivation.
Few of the heirs of family Jing died young, at least not in thest five generations. All of them had survived all kinds of life-and-death situations.
Jing Yichen didnt believe that his son would get into an ident.
But Shangguan ning was not as confident as Jing Yichen. She had no idea how Jing Rui was doing, but subconsciously thought that he was in a terrible situation.
She hit Jing Yichen hard andined in tears,How could you do this? Im the mother of our son. How could you not tell me when something happened to him? At least I should be by his side. Youre so annoying. You didnt even mention anything when you left early in the morning. I called you in the afternoon, but you didnt say anything either. You kept everything from me!
Jing Yichens eyes turned red as well. He hugged Shangguan ning tightly and apologized to her in a low voice,Baby, Im sorry. Its my fault. Its really my fault this time. If you want to hit me, then hit me. If you want to scold me, then scold me. Dont hold back.
Shangguan nings eyes were swollen from crying in his arms. She didnt stop crying until a whileter.
She tried to suppress the panic in her heart and asked Jing Yichen, Hows our son? Can I really not go in to see him?
Old master mu is inside. Ruiruis condition is stable now. Dont go in first. You can go in to see him when he is better, okay?
Shangguan ning was afraid that she would interrupt mu Wenshengs treatment. Although she wanted to see how Jing Rui was doing, she hesitated for a long time and decided not to go in.
She had a blind trust in mu Wensheng. Every time someone was on the verge of death, he could always save them.
Although Jing Rui was in a critical situation, mu Wensheng had been dealing with the virus for a long time. He must have found a way.
The couple had stayed outside the whole night and Jing Yiran had brought Jing Zhi to visit her many times.
Jing Zhi gradually realized that Jing Rui had been locked up in the operating room because he had scratched him.
He was sensitive enough to realize that some of the people who used to like him were now avoiding him and staying far away from him.
Originally, mu Sen and mu duo would y with him, but now, they did not y with him anymore.
He still wanted to give the twin sisters roses, but he was no longer allowed to enter the sisters Ward.
No one touched him anymore, nor would they touch his little face and praise him for his beauty.
Dad, why arent they talking to me? In the past, they would always stuff me with a lot of food. Why arent they giving me anything today? Duoduo said today that she was sick and would never y with me again. Dad, what illness do I have?
Hearing his sons innocent words, Jing Yiran almost burst into tears.
Nonsense, are you sick? You are very healthy! Those people are the ones who are sick, ignore them! They are all stupid humans. You are a genius and they are all jealous! We wont y with those mortals in the future!
Jing Zhi was holding a Big Apple in his arms, but for the first time, he didnt eat it. He lowered his head in frustration.But I want to y with Duoduo. She used to be so good to me and would always steal her mothers delicious food for me to eat. I dont like the twins. I like Duoduo. She promised to marry me, but shes ignoring me now.
If Jing Yiran had heard his son say that Duoduo was going to marry him at any other time, he would haveughed out loud and encouraged his son to get this girl.
But now, Jing Yiran only felt heartache.
In the end, Jing Zhi was still ostracized by others. His childhood was destined to be full of ups and downs and tears. He would gradually realize that he was different from ordinary people. He would even know that his blood was fatal.
Jing Yiran had been very happy that his son was so much better than ordinary people. He had thought that Jing Zhi would not have to worry about being bullied in the future. When he grew up, he would be the only one who could beat others up. No one else could beat him, not even Jing Rui.
However, he was happy too early.
Jing Yiran was standing in the long corridor with his son in his arms. Seeing his sons lost face, he felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.
Its okay, you work harder in the future. Well definitely be able to marry a girl prettier than Duoduo! Shell definitely regret it in the future. Youll be the most indomitable man in the world!
He was a little angry and felt that others had exaggerated his sons threat.
It was true that Jing Zhi had the virus inside him, but he was safe as long as he didnt hurt anyone and let the virus enter their bodies.
When they stood together to talk, they could even hug and kiss each other.
He hugged his son every day, but he didnt see him get infected.
The sun was rising in the east. The door of the operating room opened and mu Wensheng and Jing Tianyuan walked out.
Jing Yiran walked over with his son in his arms. He wanted to know how Jing Rui was doing.
He cared so much about his son that Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning also cared about Jing Rui. He hoped that Jing Rui would get better soon.
However, mu Wensheng and Jing Tianyuan didnt look rxed at all, except for the endless fatigue on their faces.
Shangguan ning was shaking. She asked with red eyes,Grandpa mu, how is Ruirui?
Mu Wensheng said seriously,he is still in a critical period. He is too young. I dare not draw the blood to the limit like how I changed Lus blood. So the operation is very slow. However, the virus didnt continue to devour his normal cells. It seemed that he was temporarily under control. I will rest for a while and Mu Qing will keep watch inside. I wille back in two hours to change his blood. He should be better by then.
Shangguan nings heart was heavy, but mu Wenshengs words gave her some hope.
It was good that the virus was under control. She was afraid that the virus would go out of control and devour all of Jing Ruis cells.
Can I go in and see him? Just a moment, Grandpa mu, let me see him!
Mu Wensheng took a look at Jing Tianyuan and Jing Yichen. Seeing that both of them agreed, he nodded and said,Go, but dont stay too long.
Chapter 886: Getting infected (4)
Chapter 886: Getting infected (4)
The moment Shangguan ning entered the operating room, she burst into tears when she saw Jing Rui lying on the operating table in a patient''s garb.
Jing Yichen followed behind Shangguan ning and held her hands to keep her from falling down.
Shangguan ning didn''t sleep the whole night. She had been worried the whole time and hadn''t eaten anything until now. All the energy in her body had been consumed.
She walked towards Jing Rui step by step. Seeing his pale face, she wanted to take him into her arms.
She wanted to touch Jing Rui''s face, but Mu Qing stopped her.
"Sister-inw, Ruirui is still in critical condition. Don''t touch him. The cells in his body are repairing themselves. We can''t touch him now. "
Shangguan ning retracted her hand and nodded;"Alright, alright, alright, I won''t touch him!"
Seeing that Jing Rui''s face had turned pale instead of purple, Jing Yichen felt a bit relieved.
His left leg wasn''t as swollen as before. It was only a little thicker than his right leg.
It could be seen that the blood transfusion was still effective.
Mu Wensheng was worthy of his title as a miracle doctor. No matter how difficult the problem was, he could always find the best solution.
Jing Yichen took hold of Shangguan ning''s shoulders and consoled her in a low voice,"Ning, Ruirui is much better now. Don''t worry, he will be fine."
Shangguan ning had been angry with him, but seeing the heartache and worry in his dark brown eyes, her anger gradually dissipated.
Mu Qing didn''t let them stay in the room for long and drove them out quickly.
Neither of them were wearing protective clothing. If they were infected by the virus, they were likely to be infected as well.
The virus in Jing Zhi was very strong and hard to kill. It was more than ten times harder to suppress than the one in Lu. Jing Rui was the first to be infected by the virus, and no one else could be infected before he had the confidence to treat it.
The operationsted for four days and Shangguan ning lost weight rapidly. If mu Wensheng had not told her that Jing Rui was getting better, she would have lost her weight.
On the fifth day, Jing Rui finally came out of the operation room and was transferred to the intensive care unit.
Although his face was still a little pale, he was much better than before.
Shangguan ning held her son''s cold hands and turned to mu Wensheng."Grandpa mu, is Ruirui alright? When would he wake up? Does it hurt?"
She had once drunk a few drops of Lu''s blood, but the side effects had almost tortured her to death. The pain started from her bones and made her unable to breathe.
"It''ll definitely hurt. " Mu Wensheng looked exhausted and his voice was hoarse. He had not slept for the past few days, fearing that something might happen to Jing Rui. At his age, he could not stand it.
He wouldn''t have tried so hard to save Jing Tianyuan''s grandson if he had been someone else.
This was almost as if he was sacrificing his life to save another life!
"If you want to wake up, I''m afraid you''ll have to wait for another two days. His body is still recovering, and ..."
Mu Wensheng paused and took a look at Jing Tianyuan, who was also exhausted and worried. Then he continued,"And the virus in Jing Rui will follow him for the rest of his life."
Jing Tianyuan''s mind went nk. He said angrily,""What did you say?"
Apparently, Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning couldn''t ept the truth either. Both of them looked shocked and in pain.
"Don''t be in such a hurry!"
Mu Wensheng knew that Jing Tianyuan wouldn''t be able to ept the result, but he had no choice. He could solve some of the medical problems, but he was also helpless when it came to problems that were beyond thews of nature.
It had not been easy to save Jing Rui.
"The virus in Jing Rui''s body is very low, and because he is a foreign species, his body will resist it spontaneously. His body''s resistance is stronger than that of ordinary people, so the possibility of the virus outbreak is very low. Even if it breaks out in the future, it can be improved by blood transfusion. Thus, his life and health won''t be affected too much. "
Jing Tianyuan was not satisfied with this exnation at all.
How could his great-grandson carry such a high-risk virus?
He was so angry that he scolded mu Wensheng,"you quack, hurry up and cure Ruirui!" You left such a big hidden danger with such a small problem, aren''t you embarrassed? Hurry up and change his blood. If it doesn''t work, change his bone marrow. If it doesn''t work, you can think of other ways. You have to cure Ruirui anyway! Get rid of that stupid virus!"
Mu Wensheng got angry after hearing Jing Tianyuan''s words."Bah! Who are you calling a quack? It was already amazing that I could save Jing Rui. If you can, you can save him yourself! If I could get the virus to scram, they would have done so long ago! It''s easy for you to move your mouth!"
The two old men soon quarreled, neither giving in to the other.
Mu Qing stepped forward to stop them."Please stop quarreling. You are disturbing Ruirui''s rest. It will affect his recovery!"
Hearing that, Jing Tianyuan dragged mu Wensheng out of the room.
After the two of them left, the ward immediately became quiet.
"Don''t worry, sister-inw. When Ruirui recovers, he''ll be no different from an ordinary person. The virus has been removed, and only a little remains in his body. With his body''s resistance, the virus won''t pose a threat."
Mu Qing consoled Shangguan ning, put Jing Rui into a drip, and left the ward. He had been too tired these days and needed rest.
Shangguan ning sat in front of Jing Rui''s bed, tears rolling down her face. Viruses were so scary. Since they were called viruses, they must be poisonous and harmful.
Jing Rui had suffered so much at such a young age, and he would have to fight against the virus in the future. Her heart ached at the thought of it.
Jing Yichen didn''t say anything tofort her. He just held Shangguan ning in his arms and gave her warmth and strength.
Men and women had different ways of thinking and Jing Yichen had more experience than Shangguan ning. The pain he had suffered was beyond Shangguan ning''s imagination.
In Jing Yichen''s eyes, it was not a big deal for Jing Rui to have a virus in his body.
As long as Jing Rui could wake up and be as healthy as before, it was fine.
They were guarding Jing Rui silently. The door of the ward was opened and Jing Yiran walked in with Jing Zhi.
Jing Yiran''s eyes were bloodshot. Apparently, he had suffered a lot these days.
Jing Zhi''s eyes were still red and there were tears on his face.
Chapter 887: Protection
Chapter 887: Protection
Jing Yiran said with difficulty,"Brother, I ..."
"Get out!"
Jing Yichen''s voice was cold. He interrupted Jing Yiran and drove him out.
Jing Yiran couldn''t finish his sentence. Jing Zhi shivered at Jing Yichen''s cold attitude and hid behind Jing Yiran.
Shangguan ning wiped her tears and looked at the apologetic Jing Yiran and the confused Jing Zhi. She couldn''t help but say,"Yichen, don''t scare the child."
Jing Zhi was very close to Shangguan ning and loved to throw himself into her arms. But today, he just stood quietly behind Jing Yiran. He didn''t throw himself into her arms and ask for food like he used to do.
Jing Yiran pulled his son out from behind him and pushed him in front of Shangguan ning. He said in a low voice,"Son, don''t you have something to say to your Auntie?"
Jing Zhi looked at Shangguan ning, whose eyes were swollen from crying. He lowered his head and said in a low voice,"Auntie, I''m sorry. I''ve hurt brother. I won''t touch him anymore. Please don''t be angry with me, okay?"
Shangguan ning''s heart ached at the sight of Jing Zhi''s dispirited face and his pure eyes. She picked up Jing Zhi, who was only one year old, and held him in her arms.
She gently wiped away the tears on Jing Zhi''s face and kissed his forehead. She coaxed him gently,"Ah Chi is very obedient. I''m not angry with you. It''s not your fault. Don''t be afraid. You can touch your brother, but you can''t use too much force next time. Don''t scratch him. "
Jing Zhi was just a child who didn''t know anything, but he''d been through a lot these days.
Shangguan ning''s heart ached for Jing Rui, but she couldn''t hate an innocent child.
She had always known that Jing Zhi ''AI was with Jing Rui and had never stopped him.
Shangguan ning''s heart ached when she saw Jing Rui had a little bit of the virus in his body, and she felt the same when she held Jing Zhi, who was covered in the virus.
She didn''t think Jing Zhi was any different from ordinary people, but now that she saw Jing Rui, who was infected with the virus, she realized how bad Jing Zhi''s health was.
Jing Zhi, who was in Shangguan ning''s arms and kissed by her, was surprised. He tried to push Shangguan ning away immediately."Auntie, why did you kiss me? Aren''t you afraid of being infected by me? Everyone else is afraid of me and won''t y with me anymore ..."
Shangguan ning was still holding Jing Zhi.
She knew that mu Sen and mu duo had been taken home by mu Wensheng these days and they were not allowed to get in touch with Jing Zhi. Zheng Lun was going to stay in the hospital for a week after giving birth, but she had to leave the hospital early to prevent luoluo and Weiwei from getting infected.
Most of the people in the hospital didn''t know what was wrong with Jing Zhi''s body, but they had a vague idea that Jing Zhi carried some deadly virus, so many people didn''t want to get close to him.
Jing Zhi used to be a very lively child. Just like Jing Yiran, he was talkative and never cried when he fell down. He was always smiling.
However, he had cried several times in the past two days because everyone was avoiding him and looking at him with wariness.
Children were very sensitive. Jing Zhi was not as talented as Jing Rui, but he was a smart child. He had been sad for days when he saw the look in other people''s eyes.
Shangguan ning didn''t want Jing Zhi to suffer.
He was not in the wrong, and it was not that dangerous. Hugging and kissing him would not be a problem.
She used to hold Jing Zhi in her arms and had never been infected. Jing Rui''s infection was an ident.
"You''re not sick, ah Chi. You''re very good. You see, I''m holding you and you''re fine. Some people have misunderstood you, but it will get better in the future. If there''s no one to y with you, wait for your brother to wake up and let him y with you. "
Jing Zhi''s eyes widened,"Auntie, is that true?" You''re even letting me y with my brother?"
Shangguan ning held his hand and looked at his chubby fingers. The nails had been cut off. She answered him seriously,"Yes, really, you can y with me. However, you have to be careful and don''t hurt him, okay?"
"Alright, alright! That''s great!"
Jing Zhi was overjoyed. This was the happiest moment he had had in the past few days.
He jumped out of Shangguan ning''s arms and ran to Jing Yiran. He raised his head and smiled brightly."Dad, did you hear that? I can y with my brother again!"
Jing Yiran suddenly felt like crying. He had never expected that Shangguan ning would treat Jing Zhi so well.
She was a meticulous person. Not only did she take the initiative to hold Jing Zhi, but she alsoforted his broken heart. For Jing Zhi, this was the best thing she could do to pull him out of the shadow.
No matter what he said to Jing Zhi these past two days, he didn''t listen. He was always depressed and didn''t have the joy and happiness that a one-year-old child should have.
And now, his son was finally smiling again!
Jing Yiran picked up his son and said with a smile,"Okay, when your brother wakes up, you can y with him."
Jing Zhi nodded vigorously, his beautiful eyes full of joy and excitement.
Jing Yiran didn''t stay in the ward for too long. He left with Jing Zhi in his arms. But before he left, he looked at Shangguan ning and said softly,"Thank you!"
At noon, Jing Zhi had a great appetite and ate a lot of food. He even asked Jing Yiran to pack a few C Chicken Wings for him and put them in his pocket.
Jing Yiran thought that he was going to keep it as a snack, so he ignored him.
In the afternoon, Jing Zhi sneaked out of Jing Yiran''s office and went to Jing Rui''s ward when Jing Yiran was receiving the patients.
In the ward, Jing Rui was still unconscious, and Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen were still by his side.
Jing Zhi strode in with his short legs and took a look at Jing Yichen, who was as cold as a sculpture. Then he walked to Shangguan ning and gave her his C Chicken wing."Auntie, you eat! It''s delicious!"
Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen only ate a few mouthfuls of food at noon. They were worried that Jing Rui had not woken up and could not eat anything.
"You can have it. I''m not hungry."
Shangguan ning didn''t have any appetite, but she was touched by Jing Zhi''s gift.
"Why? I''ve always been hungry, how can you not be hungry?"
Shangguan ning couldn''t exin this to Jing Zhi. He had been hungry because his body was different from ordinary people.
"You''re still growing, of course you''ll be hungry. Keep these chicken wings for yourself. I''m not eating anymore. "
"Auntie, do you not like me anymore?" Jing Zhi held the chicken wing in his hand, his little face full of grievance.

Trantor: 549690339
Shangguan ning said hurriedly,nonsense, I like you very much! How about this, well eat together, okay?
Okay! Jing Zhi was happy again.
He grabbed a chicken wing and stuffed it into his mouth. Then he whispered in Shangguan nings ear,Auntie, should I give one to uncle? He looks quite pitiful.
Shangguan ning finallyughed at his childish words.
She threw a look at the expressionless Jing Yichen and said with a smile, Its okay. If he doesnt eat, well just eat!
The C Chicken Wings were not well-made and were wrapped in a preservation film. Jing Zhi had put them in his pocket before. Jing Yichen was a clean freak and was very picky about food. He would never eat them.
Jing Yichen had heard Jing Zhis words clearly. Although he had no expression on his face, his heart was not as cold as before.
At least, Shangguan ning finally smiled and started to eat with Jing Zhi.
Other than causing trouble, this little thing at least had some use.
Jing Rui finally woke up after two days and two nights.
Shangguan ning burst into tears of joy. She held Jing Rui in her arms and cried.
Jing Rui soon got to know what had happened from Jing Yichen. He was upset when he found out that Jing Zhi was the culprit.
However, his attention was quickly drawn away by something else.
Jing Rui observed for a while and finally said to Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning,Mom, dad, I seem to have changed a little.
Jing Yichens heart skipped a beat and he asked calmly, Whats different?
Shangguan ning thought that her son was feeling unwell and said anxiously, Dont worry, Ruirui. Ill get the doctor for you!
No, mother, Jing Rui stopped her immediately.This might be a good thing.
What good news? Shangguan ning was confused.
My vision and hearing have both been enhanced!
Is that so? But Shangguan ning was not very happy.
Whats the use of this!
The price for this little benefit was so high that her son almost lost his life. She would rather her son be the same as before!
What else? Jing Yichen asked in a serious tone.
I think Ive improved in all aspects, just like Jing Zhi. But I havent tested it yet, so I dont know what level Ive reached.
Jing Yichen nodded. It was good news for his son.
The improvement in all aspects would bring Jing Rui a lot of benefits in the future. Even if it was just a little improvement, it would be of immeasurable value.
If other people knew that Jing Zhis blood had such a function, they would probably fight to take over his body, imprison him, and slowly extract his blood to strengthen themselves.
The secret of Jing Zhis body, like Lu s, could not be revealed no matter what, or there would be endless trouble.
When your body recovers, go and do aprehensive test to see how much youve improved.
Jing Yichen had recorded all the data of Jing Ruis body, in a detailed andprehensive way, just so that he could see his growth step by step.
When the timees, aparison will be made, and the improved data will be clear at a nce.
As the father and son were talking, Jing Yiran came in with Jing Zhi.
Brother, youre awake!
Jing Zhi ran to Jing Ruis side and reached out to hold him, but he seemed to have thought of something and quickly retracted his hand.
Jing Rui was not in a good mood when he saw him.What are you doing here? go y! Without you, I can still live for two more years!
Jing Zhi was about to cry.Brother, I was wrong. I was wrong. Please dont kick me out. I want to y with you! They dont want to y with me anymore, so dont abandon me!
He reached out for Jing Ruis hand as he spoke.
Jing Rui looked at his hand and asked,What happened to your hand?
Jing Zhi looked at his hands and said seriously,These are the little gloves that dad made for me! This way, I wont scratch you in the future, and you can y with me!
Jing Rui took his hand and looked at it over and over again. Finally, he could not help but ask,Hurry up and take it off. Its so inconvenient to wear a pair of gloves all day!
Jing Zhi refused,no, I must wear it! Otherwise, if I scratch you, youll have to lie here and sleep every day, ignoring me!
Jing Yiran also said,let him wear it. I had it made for him. It is veryfortable and made of natural rubber. It is strong but thin. It will not be a problem for him to wear it. When he got it today, he liked it so much that he didnt even want to take it off when he was eating.
He had no choice but to wear gloves. Mu Wensheng had studied Jing Zhis nails and found that they contained a lot of viruses. If he scratched someone, it would be easy to get infected. Cutting his nails was not safe either. The safest way was to put gloves on him. This way, he could protect others and Jing Zhis Secret.
Jing Zhi was still young, and he only felt that he had a pair of small gloves. He was very curious and liked them very much. He didnt understand the real reason why he needed to wear gloves.
Big brother, look at my gloves, theyre so pretty, and they glow in the night! Itll glow at night, and itll be beautiful!
Jing Zhi introduced his new gloves to Jing Rui excitedly. He was so carefree that he did not know that there was a big secret hidden in his nails.
Jing Rui did not force Jing Zhi to take it off when he saw that he was not willing to.
Soon, he also fell in love with the small gloves.
After Jing Zhi left, Jing Rui said to Jing Yichen,Dad, I want a pair of gloves too! But I dont want someone as childish as Jing Zhi. I want someone like you!
Jing Zhis gloves were glowing with a cartoon on it. Jing Rui looked down on the gloves worn by mentally-disabled children. They were so bright that people could see their targets at night.
He was simply a living target!
His fathers ck leather gloves were better!
Even if Jing Rui wanted a moon, Jing Yichen would get him one, let alone a pair of gloves.
Alright, Ill get someone to make it for you.
Shangguan nings depression finally disappeared as she watched the father and sons conversation.
Jing Rui woke up. He was still the same as before, speaking and doing things like an adult. His expression was the same as his father s.
She held Jing Rui in her arms and refused to let go. She was afraid that Jing Ruis situation would get out of her control if she let go.
But Jing Rui was not happy with her hugging him so tightly.Mom, dont worry, Im still alive. Its just a little virus, I wont die! However, if you continue to strangle me like this, I might suffocate to death!
Chapter 889: Sleeping together with big brother
Chapter 889: Sleeping together with big brother
Shangguan ning released her hand immediately. "I''m sorry, son. I was too worried! You''ve been unconscious for many days. I''ve been waiting for you to wake up, and I want to hold you forever. "
Jing Rui felt a little helpless."Alright then. You can carry her."
He always felt that he was an adult and couldn''t always be in his mother''s arms. That was something that only mentally-disabled children would do. He was a genius and should leave his mother''s arms!
However, his father had said that his mother was the boss, and he had to listen to her orders.
Then let him enjoy his mother''s embrace!
Anyway, he was still sick. He could not be strong, but he could rely on his mother.
Shangguan ning felt her son''s dependence on her and was very happy.
The consequence of her happiness was that she could order Jing Yichen around.
"Yichen, can you ask Mu Qing toe and check on our son? When can we be discharged?"
"Yichen, cut a dragon fruit for our son. Hmm ... Cut two. Jing Zhi wants to eat them when hees."
"Yichen, make something for our son to eat ..."
"Yichen, get our son a ss of water ..."
Jing Yichen was doing what Shangguan ning had ordered him to do. He realized that he had be his son''s nanny.
It seemed that Shangguan ning was taking revenge on him for "hiding the military information." She not only gave him all kinds of things to do, but also forbade him from bringing Jing Rui alone.
Jing Yichen smiled wryly. He had thought that he was a good father, but now he realized that he could be a bad one too.
At night, Jing Rui had his supper and was about to go to bed when Jing Zhi ran into his Ward and finished all the desserts and egg soup.
Jing Rui was dumbfounded to see his breakfast being eaten by him. He said angrily,""Why are you here again? A glutton! Go back to your house, and don''te to the hospital tomorrow!"
Jing Zhi touched his belly and looked around."Brother, is there anything to eat? I''m hungry!"
Jing Rui fell!
This was a good-for-nothing!
Jing Yichen had prepared a sumptuous supper for him. Not only was there beef that could provide him with enough energy, there was also a fruit tter, cream bread, corn porridge, tofu soup, seaweed and egg soup. He had also prepared milk, whole-grain bread, an orange that was not cut open and an Apple for him to drink the next morning.
As a result, Jing Zhi had eaten her up in a short while. And he actually said he was hungry!
Who could afford to support such a good-for-nothing!
Jing Rui was about to scold him when he suddenly realized that something was wrong. He jumped off the bed barefooted and pulled Jing Zhi to his side. He patted Jing Zhi''s back angrily."You glutton! Hurry up and spit out the orange peel and Apple core! Have you not eaten in eight lifetimes? Or did his sense of taste fail? I can''t believe he swallowed those things!"
Jing Zhi didn''t know what he had done wrong. He asked in confusion,""Brother, why did you spit it out? It''s very delicious!"
Jing Yiran caught up with him as he was speaking. When he finally understood what his son had done, he said to Jing Rui calmly,""It''s okay, don''t be nervous. He used to eat orange peel as well, and I didn''t see any difort. As for the core of the Apple, he has never vomited it out before. You''ll get used to it after you see it more often!"
Jing Rui was so mad at Jing Yiran.
What do you mean by "used to it"?
He could even get used to this kind of thing?
Jing Zhi''s digestive system might be advanced, but he shouldn''t be eating this! If he could eat orange peel today, would he have to eat tree bark tomorrow?
Was Jing Yiran really Jing Zhi''s father?
What Jing Rui didn''t know was that Jing Yiran wasn''t to be med for this.
Because Lu ate fruits in this way!
He never spat out the skin of grapes when he ate them, and he never peeled oranges when he ate them!
Hence, Jing Zhi had developed a habit of keeping his mouth shut because of her.
Of course, it would be a different story if an adult skinned Jing Zhi.
"Let''s go, son. It''s time to go home and sleep!"
Jing Yiran wanted to take his son home, but Jing Zhi didn''t want to.
"Daddy, I want to sleep with brother!"
"I don''t agree!" Jing Rui objected immediately.
He had even chased his mother away when she had asked to sleep with him. How could he sleep with Jing Zhi?
Jing Yiran raised his eyebrows andplimented Jing Zhi with a smile."My good son, you made the right choice. Alright, you''ll sleep with your brother tonight!"
After he finished speaking, he touched his chin and muttered,""You don''t say. I''ve never slept with my brother before. Why don''t we try it tonight? Hmm...He won''t shoot me in the middle of the night, will he?"
Jing Rui hated that he was too small and weak, or he would have kicked Jing Yiran out of the room.
Sure enough, Jing Zhi had been influenced by Jing Yiran.
Jing Yiran had been pestering his father all day long, and Jing Zhi followed suit. This father and son, when did they be a boss!
However, Jing Yiran did not care about Jing Rui''s feelings. He threw his son to him and walked away.
Jing Rui had never seen a father as irresponsible as Jing Yiran.
Not only did he let his son eat orange peel, but he also threw his son to another three-year-old child!
Although Jing Rui was a genius, he did not know how to take care of children.
The two children stared at each other in the ward. Jing Zhi climbed onto Jing Rui''s bed, pulled up the nket and fell asleep.
Jing Rui was going crazy.
He stood there and sighed countless times. In the end, he resigned himself to his fate and climbed into the other bed.
Luckily, there were two beds in the ward, where Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen had been sleeping with him. Now, they were put to good use.
His bones had been aching the whole time, and he had to rest.
Too many painkillers would affect the development of the brain, so Jing Yichen didn''t agree to let Mu Qing give Jing Rui one. He thought that Jing Rui would be fine after a few days.
Maybe it was because Jing Rui''s body had been strengthened by the virus during the days when he was unconscious, but he could bear the pain. It was not as painful as Shangguan ning had said.
When Jing Yichen came to Jing Rui''s ward to check on his condition, he found that his son was not in his bed, but Jing Zhi.
Soon, Shangguan ning also came to see her son and noticed the same problem.
Shangguan ning didn''t think much of it, but Jing Yichen''s face darkened.
He called Jing Yiran immediately.
"He insisted on sleeping with his brother and refused to go home with me. I had no choice!"
Jing Yiran said shamelessly,"Brother, I think I can sleep with you too. What do you think?"
Jing Yichen hung up the phone with a "bang" and his face turned darker.

Chapter 890: Childhood (1)

Jing Rui was discharged three dayster.
But what pained him was that there was a stalker behind him!
And this Lackey had followed him all the way to his house!
Jing Zhi! This is my home. Go back to your home, or I wont give you anything to eat and youll starve to death!
Jing Zhi shouted at Shangguan ning,Auntie, brother said hes going to starve me to death!
Shangguan ning didnt know whether tough or cry as she watched the two brothers confront each other at the door. She consoled Jing Zhi, Dont worry, your brother is just scaring you. Even if he starves himself to death, he wont starve you to death!
During the few days in the hospital, Jing Ruis food was all taken away by Jing Zhi. Jing Rui did not get angry at all except for calling him a foodie and rice bucket. He would always let Jing Zhi eat first.
Jing Zhi was delighted. He broke through Jing Ruis barrier and jumped around, eximing and wondering about Jing Rui.
He even upied Jing Ruis bed and refused to get up.
At Teno clock in the evening, Jing Yiran came to pick Jing Zhi up. Jing Zhi was standing on Jing Ruis bed, taking off all his clothes and shouting,I want to sleep naked with brother!
Jing Yiran almost vomited blood.
The word naked was taught to Jing Zhi by that bastard Luo Hao, because he liked to sleep naked.
He didnt expect Jing Zhi to really learn it.
This was too much!
What if Jing Zhi turned gay like Luo Hao and stopped liking women?
He could not let his son go astray!
Jing Yiran put on his sons clothes and carried him away in a hurry.Your mother is calling you home for dinner!
Jing Rui heaved a sigh of relief when Jing Zhi was carried away.
He looked at the mess in his room and decided that he would never let Jing Zhi in again.
A few dayster, Jing Yichen took Jing Rui for a physical examination.
The test results showed that his various abilities had all improved slightly, the most obvious improvement being his vision.
His vision was already several times better than an ordinary person s, and as he grew older, his vision would slowly improve.
Jing Yichen was very satisfied. His sons suffering had not been in vain. His body had been transformed, which would be of great help to him in the future.
Although Jing Rui did not need to be a killer, he had the advantage of having good vision and hearing. He could escape unscathed no matter what kind of danger or opponent he encountered.
Lu could stand out among so many elite killers in the world and be the number one killer with great strength because of her excellent physical fitness.
Jing Rui was also very happy, because his vision had improved and he could see further and more clearly. His hearing had also improved and he could hear many whispers that he had not heard before.
Of course, he had no interest in eavesdropping on his parents whispers. He could now recite whatever they were talking about backwards!
What he was interested in was that he could eavesdrop on other peoples secrets and then scare them with his tricks!
But Jing Rui could not ept the fact that Jing Zhis hearing and vision were much better than his.
She had to stay away from Jing Zhi in the future, or he would know all the bad things she had done.
No wonder Jing Zhi had always said that people were talking bad about him behind his back. He really could hear what people were saying!
The weather was getting colder and colder, but Jing Ruis training did not stop for a day. Even if it was snowing outside, he still followed Jing Yichen to swim in the cold sea.
In the beginning, he would feel very cold, but he slowly got used to it. His ability to resist the cold became stronger and stronger, and he could also dive deeper into the water.
Time passed day by day. He was slowly growing taller, his strength was also slowly increasing, his various abilities were improving, and even the knowledge he learned was moreplex.
He was twelve and Jing Zhi was ten.
Jing Rui went to visit Jing Tianyuan at mu Wenshengs ce after he finished his isted study and training.
The two old men were already 90 years old, but they still looked energetic. Other than more white hair, they didnt even seem to have more wrinkles.
Not only did they drink the health wine made by mu Wensheng all year round, but they also practiced Tai Chi together to exercise. They also ate a bnced diet.
The two of them looked very good. It was estimated that they would have no problem living for a hundred years.
Jing Tianyuan was so happy to see Jing Rui. He said to the servant,Hurry up and prepare a few more dishes that my great-grandson loves. I want to drink more today!
Jing Zhi, who had been following Jing Tianyuan, shouted excitedly when he saw Jing Rui.Brother, youre here! Ive been waiting for you for a long time!
He threw himself at Jing Rui, trying to hold him.
Jing Rui nced at him and dodged nimbly.
Jing Zhi said unhappily,brother, why wont you let me hug you? Do you not like me anymore? Is it because I ate your pork trotter thest time you came? How stingy!
Jing Rui was speechless.
Although Jing Zhi was two years younger than him, he was about the same height as him. However, he had only grown taller in the past few years. He had not been careful at all. He only knew how to eat and eat all day. Other than hunger, he was still hungry!
Go to the side and dont touch me! Youre covered in snacks!
Alright, wait here. Ill go change my clothes ande back for a hug. You cant reject me this time!
Jing Zhi ran back to his room to change his clothes.
Then, a girls scream came from inside,Jing Zhi, are you a hooligan? Get out of here, cant you see that Im changing my clothes?
Mu Duoduo, do you still have any shame? In order to marry me, youre going to use such a dirty trick? Pfft, how could you forget when you drew a line with me when we were young and didnt y with me? Dont worry, I wont marry you even if all the women in the world are dead!
Idiot Jing, get out! My name is mu duo, not mu Duoduo. Dont give me a random name! Also, I changed my clothes to wee my brother, it has nothing to do with you. Stop being so narcissistic, I would never marry you even if all the men in the world died!
Jing Rui is my brother, what does it have to do with you? Dont think too highly of yourself. Your brothers name is mu shensen, not Jing Rui! You two dont even have the same surname, how could he be your brother! If you dont even have this bit ofmon sense, youve wasted your primary school years!
Mu duo was so mad at Jing Zhi that she put on some random clothes and ran out of the room toin to Jing Rui.
Brother, that idiot Jing Zhi said youre not my brother. Beat him up! He himself doesnt havemon sense, yet he said I dont havemon sense. Primary school was in vain!
Chapter 891
Chapter 891: Childhood (2)
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui looked at mu duo and did not say anything.
Mu duo and Jing Zhi had been fighting since they were young. There had never been a break, so he didnt care.
Moreover, Jing Zhi had been holding a grudge against mu Sen and mu duo when he was young. He was ten years old and still hated it, so he was unwilling to y with mu duo.
But mu duo never thought that she had done anything wrong. She always despised Jing Zhi for being a dangerous and sick person. She always told him that the virus in his body would break out every two years and he would have to stay in the hospital for a month to recover after a blood transfusion.
Just as mu duo ran out, Jing Zhi also ran out from inside. He shouted angrily,Mu Duoduo, why are you wearing my clothes? Quickly return it to me!
Mu duo looked down and her face instantly turned red!
It was so embarrassing. She had been so anxious that she had put Jing Zhis clothes on.
This retard is infected with the virus. If I wear his clothes, I wont get infected and die, right?
Ah! Mu duo screamed and ran back into the house to change her clothes.
Jing Zhi chased after her.You still refuse to admit that you want to marry me, and now youre even wearing my clothes. No one will believe you even if you lie! Why are you wearing mens clothes at such a young age?
Mu duo scolded Jing Zhi through the door,Are you crazy? Why did you throw your clothes on my bed? Can you me me for wearing the wrong one? What kind of man are you? youre just a little kid. Im a year older than you!
So what if youre one year older? You cant grow no matter how much good food you eat! Little fatty, little dwarf!
The two of them quarreled in the room, but Jing Rui answered Jing Tianyuans questions as if he had not heard anything.
Are your injuries all healed?
Other than the deep wound on my leg, the rest of my injuries have healed. Thanks to Jing Zhi, Jing Ruis wounds had been healing faster ever since he had been infected by the powerful virus.
Youve been training too hard recently. You should rest for a while, and you can go to United Kingdom for a month or two. Ive already contacted the United Kingdom Royal family. You just need to attend the aristocratic etiquette lesson. Well be back in two months, and your fathers new arrangements will be made.
Because Jing Rui was growing very fast, his training n would be greatly adjusted every few months.
He had reached a bottleneck in his training and Jing Yichen and Jing zhongxiu were nning for the next step of his training.
Jing Rui was not interested in etiquette training, but noble etiquette was necessary. Although he had Jing Yichens guidance in his daily life, it would be more profound if he went to the royal family to receive real Noble Education.
Moreover, he could rest for two months, and he would not have to be so tense all the time like before.
As they grew older, Jing Ruis personality became more and more simr to Jing Yichen s. On one hand, it was hereditary, and on the other hand, it was a problem of education.
He could be arrogant and conceited, but he couldnt be impetuous, and he couldnt expose his identity, strength, and trump cards.
And with Jing Ruis intelligence, everyone else was no different from retards in his eyes. His way of thinking and experience were very different from others, and he had no desire tomunicate with others.| Wang.
Even Jing Zhi and mu duo, who were considered close to him, were treated coldly by him.
Unless it was a matter of life and death, he definitely wouldnt care about these children who only knew how to y all day. He had never treated himself as a child.
Jing Rui didnt stay there for long. Ten minutester, Shangguan nings phone kept ringing. He only picked it up once and didnt pick it up again.
And it was like a World War had broken out here. Mu duo and Jing Zhi had fought from the house to the yard, and then from the yard to the roof. The two servants who took care of them had to climb up to the roof and try to carry them down. Many of mu Wenshengs herbs were drying on the roof. If they were destroyed, the old man would be furious!
When they finally stopped, Jing Rui had already disappeared.
After that, the two of them started ming and ming each other.
Idiot, its all your fault! My brother left in a fit of anger, call him back!
Crazy woman, what does it have to do with me? dont you go biting people like a Mad Dog! My brother left because he was angered by you. You have to take responsibility for this, or I will go and beat mu Sen up!
The eleven-year-old mu Sen was not as tall as the ten-year-old Jing Zhi, and their powers were not on the same level at all. If the two of them were to fight, mu Sen would definitely be the one at a disadvantage.
Mu duo stomped her feet in anger. She and mu Sen were biological siblings. Of course, she would side with her brother.My brother didnt do anything to you, why did you hit him? Youre just jealous that hes smarter than you and has better grades than you!
Although Jing Zhi was one year younger than them, they were all in the same grade. Jing Yiran had asked Jing Yichen to transfer Jing Zhi to the same ss as musen and muduo.
Jing Zhis grades were always far worse than mu Sens in every exam. He was only slightly better than mu duo, who was as naughty as him. Mu Sen had always been first in the ss, and Jing Zhi had only been in the twenties at his best.
But how could Jing Zhi admit that he was not as smart as mu Sen?
Mu Sen is a nerd. He studies all day long, so of course he did better than me! Im the smartest one. I didnt go to ss for a month, but I still did well!
Jing Zhi was ten years old this year. He had justpleted the fifth blood transfusion in his life, so he had asked for a months leave from school. When he returned to school after his leave, he still ranked in the top 20 without any drop in grades. He had been proud of this for a long time.
Speaking of this, mu duo was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood.
Jing Zhi hadnt gone to schoolst month, so she was confident that she would be able to surpass him this time. But when the results came out, she still didnt beat Jing Zhi. Jing Zhi was in 23rd ce, while she was in 26th ce.
She had been calling Jing Zhi an idiot all day, but if she couldnt even pass the test, did that mean she had be an idiot herself?
Mu duo was unconvinced,youre just lucky! My brother is the real deal, youre just a fake! Who knows if you cheated in the exam? maybe you copied other peoples answers!
She had just learned a few new idioms from her Chinese teacher and they were used on Jing Zhi immediately.
Chapter 892
Chapter 892: Childhood (3)
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi was insulted by mu duo and he immediately got angry.Youre talking nonsense, youre framing me! I did all the papers by myself, and I didnt see anyones answers!
He had really cheated in the past and often copied other peoples answers. However, he had really done all the questions on the exam this time. Now, mu duo had used him of copying the exam paper. How could he not be angry?
The topic of the two people quickly changed, and they were arguing again.
Most of the time, Jing Zhi and mu duo were just bickering. They wouldnt really fight.
Because he was too strong, he didnt control his strength. He had injured mu duo and sent her to the hospital several times. He didnt dare to attack mu duo easily anymore.
However, Jing Zhi still didnt know why he was so strong. Mu Sen and mu duo didnt know either. They only thought that he had so much strength because he could eat so much.
As mu duo cursed, she started to hit Jing Zhi. She punched his chest, pulled his arms, kicked his legs, and stomped on his feet. In the end, she still couldnt vent her anger and was about to bite Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi was beaten ck and blue by her, but he held himself back and didnt fight back. When he saw mu duo about to bite him, he immediately took a few steps back.
Jing Yiran had told him many times that he could not get hurt or bleed, or anyone who was stained with his blood would be in aa, just like Jing Rui.
What he had experienced when he was young had left a scar in his heart that would never be erased.
He firmly remembered his fathers words. He would not get close to others easily, and he would never let anyone touch his blood.
He was afraid, afraid that the people around him would be killed by him.
He was not close to anyone except Jing Rui, because Jing Rui was the only one who had treated him the same way after he woke up.
Mu Sen, mu duo, Zheng yuluo, and Zheng Yuwei had all been far away from him for a long time.
They were on good terms now, but Jing Zhi knew that if they could stay away from him once, they could stay away from him many more times. Once they found him dangerous, they would leave him immediately. The only one who would stay and take care of him was Jing Rui.
Even so, he couldnt let mu duo bite him, or she might lose her life.
Jing Zhi felt like he was a venomous Cobra with a heavy burden on his shoulders.
Mu duo, Im warning you. You better be honest. Im already letting you off easy by not retaliating when you hit me! You actually want to bite me, are you tired of living?
Mu duo also realized that if she had bitten Jing Zhi just now, she would have been in danger.
Everyone at home had told her not to hurt Jing Zhi, but she was too used to being willful. When she lost her temper, she didnt care about the danger.
I dont know what kind of freak you are, to have so many taboos! Youre a dangerous person. Stay away from me in the future. Youre not allowed toe to my great-grandfathers ce to y!
Pfft, you think I wanted toe? Every time Ie here, I see you, this jinx. I feel like throwing up!
Jing Zhis scolding skills were not inferior to mu duo S. Mu duo had learned everything from Zhao Anan, while Jing Zhi had learned the essence of Jing Yirans scolding skills. He had also learned how to insult people on TV and in real life without any guidance.
His level of intelligence was actually not inferior to mu Sens at all. It was just that he had used his smart brain to use crooked ways to trick female students and male students. He had dominated the school and even the teachers and principal had been angered to tears by him.
If Jing Tianyuan hadnt been keeping an eye on him, he would have been in the sky by now.
Usually, he would argue with mu duo until it was dark, but today, Jing Zhi didnt want to argue with her at all.
It had been more than half a year, and he had finally seen his brother once. In the end, he had only cared about quarreling just now, and he didnt even know that his brother had left. He had to hurry and find his brother. Otherwise, he didnt know how many months it would be before he saw him again.
Jing Zhi shouted at Jing Tianyuan as he ran out.Great-grandpa, Im going to y with my brother! Im noting back for dinner tonight!
When mu duo heard that Jing Zhi was going to find Jing Rui, she ran out quickly and shouted at mu Wensheng,Great-grandfather, I wont be back for dinner either!
Jing Rui had just reached home and had not wiped Shangguan nings tears away when the people following him arrived one after another.
When it was time for dinner, not only did mu Sene, but the twin sisters Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei also came.
Jing Rui ignored everyone and continued to talk with Jing Yichen in the study, discussing the next step of the training.
It was rare for Shangguan ning to see so many children gathered at home. She was very happy to entertain them.
Jing Zhi didnt like any of these children. He felt that not only did they reject him, but they also came to take his brother away. He wanted to kick them out one by one.
One against four, it was effortless for him.
It was not the first time that luoluo and Weiwei hade to Jing Ruis house, but Jing Rui was usually not at home when they came here. They had only seen him twice, and today was the third time.
But they were too curious about Jing Rui.
All of them had to go to school, including the sick Jing Yiran. Only Jing Rui did not have to go to school. But they had heard from mu duo that Jing Rui had finished all the courses at the age of twelve and had already gotten a diploma from Harvard University.
Moreover, he had been using his spare time to study all the courses from primary school to University!
This was simply a legend!
They could not imagine how Jing Rui, who was only three years older than them, could know so much.
The two sisters had been in the first grade since they were six years old, and they had good grades. Their family had thought that they were smart, butpared to Jing Rui, they seemed a little miserable.
Jing Rui had always been their idol.
Not only was he a genius, but he was also very handsome and cool. In the past, he would never say a word to the two sisters when they met.
That was to say, Jing Rui had not spoken to them since they could remember, not even a basic greeting!
They were twin sisters and had inherited their mothers beauty. They were so beautiful that they would always be the focus of the crowd and attract countless eyes.
However, all of them were useless in front of Jing Rui!
He was simply treating them like air!
Chapter 893: Childhood (4)
Chapter 893: Childhood (4)
Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei were different from Zheng Lun. Zheng Lun was gentle and timid, she spoke in a soft voice and never tried to cause trouble.
However, the twin sisters were very bold. In order to prevent her two granddaughters from bing as introverted as Zheng Lun, PEI Xinhua had deliberately raised them to be arrogant, so both of them were very lively andpetitive.
They had always been the center of attention, but they had been humiliated by Jing Rui.
Not only that, but even Jing Zhi didn''t like them.
Mu Sen was very good to the two of them. Every time, he would praise them for being pretty and sensible, which made mu duo jealous.
However, the two sisters had the proper upbringing. PEI Xinhua and Wu Zi treated them like babies, but they didn''t dote on them too much.
So when they came to Jing Rui''s house, they were all very polite to Shangguan ning and ate their food.
However, no matter how long they sat there, they refused to leave.
Jing Rui only showed his face and only nced at Jing Zhi. The rest of the people followed Jing Yichen into the study without even looking at him.
How could she do that? she hadn''t even spoken to her idol. It wasn''t easy to see him again. She couldn''t let him go just like that!
And because the Zheng family had once joked that one of the sisters would marry Jing Rui, the girl had a strange feeling that Jing Rui was theirs.
Usually, there would be students in the ss who would pass them notes and gifts, swearing that they liked them and would marry them. At that time, the sisters would tell their suitors with disdain,"We already have a wife!
Even though they didn''t know what marriage was all about, they still felt an inexplicable sense of pride when they said such things.
Jing Rui did not know that two nine-year-old girls had their eyes on him. He was not as surprised by the twins as ordinary people were, and he did not have any concept of beauty.
This was because his mother was a first-ss beauty. Her beauty came from the inside out, and she had both appearance and temperament. Nine years didn''t leave any marks on Shangguan ning''s face. She was still very young and full of energy.
His father was so handsome that no ws could be found. The years had brought about the increase of his charm and temperament. Jing Yichen''s reputation in A city and even the world had reached the peak. He was someone who many people looked up to.
In Jing Rui''s eyes, no woman was more beautiful than Shangguan ning, and no man was more handsome and charming than Jing Yichen.
He had a calm and mature heart. At the age of twelve, he had already experienced more storms than many people.
The nine-year-old Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei were beautiful twin sisters in the eyes of others, but they were just two mentally disabled girls in Jing Rui''s eyes. They were not even beautiful.
Therefore, he had never cared about them.
However, there were so many people in the house, and he was not used to it and did not like it.
He was back to keep Shangguan ningpany, not to keep these kids Company.
But when he came out of the study and saw that Shangguan ning was surrounded by the children and smiling happily, he decided not to keep Shangguan ningpany.
Perhaps, she didn''t even need hispany.
Jing Rui nodded at Jing Yichen indifferently. Ignoring the crowd in the living room, he opened the door and walked out.
Shangguan ning stood up anxiously and asked,"Ruirui, where are you going?" You just got home, why are you going out again?"
Jing Rui stopped and turned around slowly. He looked at Shangguan ning and said calmly,"I don''t like strangers in my house. Don''t let anyone in casually in the future. I''ll go back to family Jing and you cane to me if you need anything. I''ll stay in A city for three days. "
The only difference between Jing Rui and Jing Yichen was that Jing Rui preferred loneliness and darkness.
Family Jing''s Vi was located on the mountainside, which upied arge area. It was quiet and empty, which was very suitable for him. So he liked it there more than his home.
Shangguan ning''s heart ached at Jing Rui''s words.
She didn''t understand her son anymore!
He was growing up, and he was also undergoing huge changes that she couldn''t adapt to.
She could only see her son once every half a year, but every time she saw him, she felt like she was meeting a stranger!
This made Shangguan ning panic.
She knew that Jing Rui didn''t like these talkative people at home. In fact, Jing Yichen didn''t like them either.
Jing Yichen could tolerate these children only because she liked to have children to talk to.
Now, Jing Rui would rather live in the empty vis of family Jing than stay at home.
Had she done something wrong?
But they were Zhao Anan ''s, Zheng Lun'' s, and Lu''s children. How could she turn them away?
Jing Rui said indifferently, then turned around and entered the elevator, disappearing from Shangguan ning''s sight.
He hadn''t had a good rest for many days. Although the wounds on his body had basically healed, the training some time ago had hurt his internal organs. The doctor had told him that he couldn''t get injured again in the near future and had to rest for a while.
Seeing her son''s disappearing figure, Shangguan ning''s heart was filled with unspeakable pain.
She forced herself to calm down and turned around. She forced a smile and said to the children, "It''s veryte. I''ll get the driver to send you all home."
The few people in the living room looked at each other.
They had heard Jing Rui''s words clearly. He was as cold as an emotionless robot!
He actually didn''t even try to avoid them!
And it seemed that because he disliked them, he didn''t like Shangguan ning either.
This was his own mother, yet she was so cold to them. How good could he be to them?
Although it was not the first time that they had seen Jing Rui''s ruthlessness, they were still shocked and heartbroken every time they saw it.
They all left obediently. Without Jing Rui, there was no point in staying in the house. They were just here to see Jing Rui.
As soon as the five of them entered the elevator, Jing Zhi couldn''t help but explode.
"You''re all so shameless. It''s not easy for my brother toe back, what are you doing here? Great, now he thinks you guys are too noisy and doesn''t want to y with me anymore! You''re not allowed toe to my brother''s house in the future, especially Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei! Both of you get out of my way. I''ll cut you to death if you dare to have any ideas about my brother!"
Jing Zhi had disliked the two sisters since they were one year old, and he was getting more and more annoyed by the moment.
Even though they were getting prettier and prettier, Jing Zhi still hated them.
Chapter 894: Childhood (5)
Chapter 894: Childhood (5)
Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei didn''t like Jing Zhi either. He had a sharp tongue and would always find ways to embarrass them. In addition, he had a life-threatening illness, so they didn''t like to talk to him.
Now that Jing Zhi had called them out and criticized them, the two sisters ''temper red up and they started yelling at him.
Mu duo was aiming at luoluo and Weiwei, so she also fired at Jing Zhi.
Only mu Sen stood quietly in the elevator and smiled helplessly.
He knew very well that Jing Zhi was right. They had indeed annoyed Jing Rui bying here.
But Jing Rui did not show his emotions on his face like the others, so he looked normal.
If he had known that this would happen, he would not havee today. Not only did he have a lot of homework to do, but mu Wensheng had also left some homework for him and asked him to memorize an obscure medical book. He had only memorized a little.
Strictly speaking, Jing Rui was not familiar with these people. He only appeared once every half a year, and only for a few days each time. Then, he would disappear for another half a year. Every time he showed up, he would go to see Jing Tianyuan. It was at this time that they could see the mysterious Jing Rui. However, other than Jing Zhi, he didn''t talk to anyone else.
Jing Rui did not care whether they were rtives or not. They were all the same to him.
The elevator door opened, and the five of them came out. They were still making a ruckus.
Jing Zhi couldn''t win against the three girls. He was so angry that his face turned white, but he couldn''t hit them. He was so angry that he almost had internal injuries.
He snorted onest time, ignored the three girls, and turned to leave.
Family Jing wasn''t a ce where outsiders could enter and leave as they pleased, but Jing Zhi was not an outsider. His great-grandma loved him so much that even though his father had been driven out of family Jing, the olddy allowed him toe and go as he pleased.
His brother didn''t seem to be in a good mood today. He had to go andfort him!
When the three girls saw Jing Zhi leave, they all thought that they had won. Only mu Sen thought that Jing Zhi had gone to the Jing family with Jing Rui.
Both of them had the same surname, so their rtionship was indeed extraordinary.
Although he and mu duo had to call Jing Rui ''cousin'', something seemed to be missing.
Mu Sen was a little puzzled. What was it missing?
The 11-year-old mu Sen did not understand what was missing. Many yearster, when he grew up, he understood that what theycked was not blood rtions, but the trust and care that came from the heart.
Jing Zhi trusted Jing Ruipletely. He liked to y and cause trouble. Even Jing Yiran couldn''t control him, but he always listened to Jing Rui.
Blood Brothers were nothing more than this.
Jing Rui had a high IQ and EQ. He was quiet, but he could see through people''s hearts better than anyone else. He knew very well how much Jing Zhi trusted him, and that was why he treated Jing Zhi differently.
Everyone else went home, except for Jing Zhi. He asked the driver to take him to family Jing.
The chauffeurs were Jing Yichen''s men and he didn''t dare to make the decision to send Jing Zhi to family Jing alone, so he reported it to Lee duo.
Lee duo asked for Jing Yichen''s permission before he asked the driver to send them back.
In the living room, Jing Yichen sat down beside Shangguan ning after hanging up the call with Lee duo and wiped away her tears gently.
"How old are you? why are you still crying?"
"I''ve been looking forward to my son''s return, but in the end ..."
Shangguan ning was sad and med herself. She curled up on the sofa, holding her legs and kept crying.
"He''s just like me with his cold personality, why are you so calctive with him? He still doesn''t know how good family is because his life is too smooth and he has never lost anything, so he doesn''t know how to cherish it. "
Jing Yichen held Shangguan ning in his arms and sighed with emotion.
He wasn''t a person who liked to be lively, and he didn''t like the noise of arge group of children at home. However, he definitely didn''t like loneliness and coldness.
He had not had a tender childhood, so he cherished their married life very much after he met Shangguan ning.
Shangguan ning was a good wife and a good mother. She had presented the warmth of the family to perfection. He loved to go home and spend time with her.
But Jing Rui did not understand this feeling.
He had grown up in his mother''s love, and he had nevercked a trace of maternal love and fatherly love.
The more it was like this, the less he would miss his home, because it was easy to get, and he subconsciously felt that these things would never be lost, so he had no desire for love.
Jing Rui was colder than him and more used to loneliness. He really did not need anyone''spany.
His personality was moreplete and had no loopholes.
In the future, he would definitely be the outstanding sessor of family Jing.
Although he was cold, he respected Shangguan ning very much. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have left Jing Tianyuan''s house so quickly.
Jing Yichen actually understood why Jing Rui had left. He was only a twelve-year-old boy after all. He was jealous that his mother was busy with other people.
However, his pride and conceit did not allow him to be jealous. It would make him look immature and he was not willing to face himself like this.
Of course, Shangguan ning was also in the wrong today. She did not consider Jing Rui''s feelings and made love with all the people in the room, which made her miss the emotionalmunication with her son.
But Jing Yichen was a good husband and he didn''t think that there was a big problem with his wife.
When it came to dealing with interpersonal rtionships, he and Jing Rui were both simple and crude, far less than Shangguan ning.
"Don''t cry. If you like children, we can just have another one. Ruirui, it''s a little too little. "
If Shangguan ning had a child with her, she wouldn''t be so fond of other people''s children because she missed her son so much.
Shangguan ning felt a little embarrassed."Forget it. He is already so old. I don''t think I should have him. Ruirui is enough."
All these years, she and Jing Yichen had never tried to avoid it, but they had never gotten pregnant.
Jing Tianyuan had once said that family Jing had only had one son for the past hundred years. Except for Jing Yiran, the rest of the family had only one son.
He also reminded Shangguan ning that it was unlikely that she would have another child.
Shangguan ning didn''t believe Jing Tianyuan''s deduction at first, but she started to believe Jing Tianyuan''s words when she realized that she had never been pregnant again.
A prominent family would always have some unclear inheritance. If they were to change it forcefully, it would easily cause problems.
Jing Yiran''s appearance had broken the tradition of family Jing, which had caused a lot of turmoil in the family. Even Jing zhongxiu''s wife had passed away.
Shangguan ning was afraid that if she had a second child, it would affect family Jing, Jing Yichen and Jing Rui.
She was not a superstitious person, but she really did not dare to take the risk.
Chapter 895
Chapter 895: Missing (1)
Trantor: 549690339
But Jing Yichen insisted that Shangguan ning should have another child.
She had always liked children. When Jing Rui was not with her, she would always say that if she had another child with her, she would not miss her son so much.
Moreover, he actually wanted another child.
With mu Wensheng around, they could have a child.
While the couple were discussing the issue of having a second child, Jing Rui had already arrived at family Jings Vi. He went straight to the small vi where Jing Yichen used to live without saying goodbye to Mo Lan and asked the Butler to call the doctor to give him an infusion.
Jing Rui had been seriously injured and needed to go through the final treatment.
Jing Zhi barged into the room as soon as the doctor finished the IV.
Big brother! Are you sick? Why do you need an IV?
Because of the virus in his body, Jing Zhi had never caught a cold or a fever. He had never been sick with any other diseases, so he was very healthy. He was very surprised to see Jing Rui receiving an IV, because he thought that Jing Rui was better than him in every way and should not get sick so easily.
Jing Rui just looked at him and did not exin anything.
The doctor exined for Jing Rui with a smile.Your brother is not sick. He was injured before. He needs an injection to help him heal.
Jing Zhi knew that his wounds could heal, because he had now realized that his healing ability was dozens of times better than others.
Many people needed a few days to recover from a cut on their hand, but he usually stopped bleeding in a while. If the wound was not big, it would be restored to its original state after an hour, and there were few scars left.
Brother, youre injured?!
Jing Zhi walked quickly to Jing Rui. He wanted to lift Jing Ruis clothes to see where he was hurt, but he did not dare to touch him, because Jing Rui was a clean freak and did not like to be touched by others, let alone lift his clothes.
Jing Rui still did not say anything. He just looked at the doctor, indicating that he could leave.
The doctor quickly packed his things and left. Jing Rui was only twelve years old, but he already had such a strong and intimidating aura. Who knew how evil he would be when he grew up?
Jing Zhi was afraid that he would be driven away as well, so he put on a pitiful look and said,Brother, dont chase me away. Im here to see you. I promise I wont disturb you. I promise Ill be very obedient!
He was delicate and beautiful, with fair skin like a doll. At this moment, he was speaking pitifully, which made peoples hearts ache.
Jing Rui could not bear to drive him away.
Jing Zhi always had the ability to make him feel helpless.
Jing Rui nodded, agreeing to let Jing Zhi stay.
Jing Zhi was overjoyed. As expected, he stayed still. He didnt rummage through anything or say anything. He was so obedient that he didnt seem like him.
He just liked his brother. He liked to chase after his brother, like to talk to him, like to share his food with him.
The two brothers sat there quietly. Jing Zhi soon fell asleep on the sofa, while Jing Rui was checking thetest news on his phone while he was receiving fluid transfusion. He now had some power of his own and had his own men to work for him. He listened to brief reports from his men every day.
The next day, Jing Zhi woke up to find himself in bed.
He had clearly slept on the sofast night!
Wheres my brother? Where did he go?
Jing Zhi had searched the entire vi but could not find Jing Rui. Instead, he was taken away by Mo Lan to chat with her.
The olddy spent most of her time alone at home. She had no one close to her except for the housekeeper and the servants. Now that Jing Zhi was here, she had to have a good chat with her great-grandson.
In fact, Jing Rui did not leave the Jing family. He went to the secret underground room that only the heir of the Jing family knew about. It was quiet and had the most advanced equipment and systems in the world. He could make arrangements for his own power and focus on solving some problems.
The day passed quickly. Jing Rui did not go out. Jing Zhi managed to escape from the olddys clutches and ran home.
Since Jing Rui was no longer there, Jing Zhi did not want to stay any longer, in case the olddy nagged at him.
The driver drove Jing Zhi to Jing Tianyuans ce. Jing Tianyuan pulled Jing Zhi over and said with a serious face,If you go out again, Ill ground you and youll never be able to go out and y again!
Jing Zhi wasnt afraid of him. He smiled and said,Great-grandpa, I didnt run around. I went to see my brother!
Jing Tianyuans face was still dark as he lectured Jing Zhi for a long time. He said that Jing Zhis body was too special. If he was hurt or injured by someone outside, it might lead to a murder. Then the secret of his body would be exposed and he would be in danger in the future.
In order to ensure Lus safety and to prevent her from being taken away by powerful foreign research institutes, family Jing had to pay a high price every year.
If Jing Zhi was added to the mix, the Jing family would not be able to afford the price.
However, what Jing Tianyuan was worried about happened.
The next day, Jing Zhi went missing after school.
Only the two sisters, Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei, had witnessed the whole process of Jing Zhis disappearance. The surveince camera at the ce where Jing Zhi disappeared was broken, so they couldnt check the situation at that time.
The two girls eyes were red and swollen from crying. Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun brought them to mu Wensheng.
In mu Wenshengs yard, besides mu Wensheng and Jing Tianyuan, Jing Yiran and Lu were also there. They hade here in a hurry after hearing that their son was missing.
Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei looked very simr, and many people would mistake them for each other. Mu duo and mu Sen often could not tell who was who.
The only difference was that the older sister, Zheng yuluo, was more mature. Perhaps it was because she had been taught by the adults since she was young, she always consciously protected her sister. Even if they were only a few minutes apart from each other, she still had the demeanor of an older sister.
However, today, she was crying very hard and was even more panicked than her sister Zheng Yuwei. Her small face was pale and she looked very pitiful.
Zheng Lun held her two daughters in her arms with heartache. They had done something wrong today and were suffering.
Zheng Jing had already heard what had happened from his two daughters. He apologized to Jing Yiran and Lu guiltily,
Yiran, Im sorry! This is luoluo and Weiweis fault. I didnt teach them well, and its my responsibility as their father. Its just that the two of them are still too young and cant tell right from wrong. If you want to me someone, me me! No matter what, I will do my best to help you find Jing Zhi!
Chapter 896: Missing (2)
Chapter 896: Missing (2)
Jing Yiran was trying his best to suppress his anger. At FiveO'' clock in the afternoon, he suddenly found that the positioning device on his son had lost its effect. Then he got a call from Jing Tianyuan, saying that Jing Zhi had gone missing.
However, he only knew that his son had gone missing for no reason. He had no idea how his son had gone missing or what had happened today.
He was desperate to know what had happened so that he could find his son as soon as possible. He didn''t want to listen to Zheng Jing''s useless apology.
Jing Yiran stared at the crying twins with a ferocious look and asked in a harsh tone,"Where is my son? Tell Me What You Saw, or I''ll feed you to the dogs!"
Hearing that, the two girls fell to the ground in fear and cried while holding Zheng Lun''s legs.
"Mom, help!"
"Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong. I won''t dare to do it again! I don''t want to be fed to the dogs!"
Zheng Lun tried tofort them, but Zheng Jing was frowning and looking at Jing Yiran sharply.
If Jing Yiran dared to yell at his daughter like that, he would have beaten him up.
But today was a special day. Jing Yiran''s son was missing and it was normal for him to lose control of his emotions.
Even Lu, who was always cold, had a cold look on her face. Her ck eyes were full of murderous intent.
Zheng Jing suppressed the anger in his heart and consoled his two daughters. When they stopped crying, he said,"Luoluo, tell uncle Jing what happened today. Don''t miss out anything. Can you do it?"
Zheng yuluo cried so hard that she was out of breath. She was so scared that she would be beaten to death by Jing Yiran if she told the truth. But she didn''t dare to lie, or Jing Zhi would really die because of her.
After all, she was only nine years old, and fear was her most instinctive reaction.
She had caused Jing Zhi to go missing. Even if she hated Jing Zhi, she knew that she was in deep trouble.
After a while, with her father and mother protecting her, Zheng yuluo finally mustered her courage and said intermittently,"
"Two days ago, my sister and I were scolded by Jing Zhi. He has always ... Hated us. After I went to school today, I put a drug in his water during lunch. After I knocked him out, my sister and I dragged him to the woods behind the canteen and tied him to a tree."
"Then ... Then someone came out of the woods and asked us who we tied up. I ... I said his name was Jing Zhi, and the man Cut the Rope and took Jing Zhi away. He said that he was a human trafficker and that he would help us sell Jingzhi to a faraway ce so that he wouldn''t be able to bully us anymore. I, I, I ... Agreed ..."
Zheng yuluo''s voice was so low that it could not be heard.
It was obvious that she was extremely regretful of her actions back then.
Jing Yiran''s heart ached when he heard that his son had been tortured by Zheng yuluo.
Just because their son hated them and didn''t hang around them every day like the others and scold them, they suffered such revenge?
Hand his son over to the human traffickers?
At such a young age, he was actually so ruthless!
Jing Yiran was so angry that he wanted to strangle the two girls to death.
However, these two definitely couldn''t die now, or else their only clue would be broken.
From Zheng yuluo''s words, it could be concluded that the person who took Jing Zhi away couldn''t be a human trafficker. Otherwise, there was no reason for him to only take Jing Zhi away and let go of the beautiful twin sisters!
Besides, Jing Zhi had always been protected in secret. Why would the twins drug Jing Rui, tie him up, and give him away?
After Jing Zhi''s ident, his bodyguards didn''t report anything to him, and he was nowhere to be found.
"Where did you get this drug from?"
Jing Zhi had a sharp sense of smell. He should be able to tell that something had been added to the water.
Moreover, he had a strong resistance to drugs. Ordinary drugs had no effect on him at all. Zheng yuluo had only used one pill to make Jing Zhi copse. The effect of this pill was too strong!
"I asked brother mu Sen for it a long time ago," Zheng yuluo said in a panic."I ... I said I would use it for self-defense, and he gave it to me."
Zheng yuluo had been keeping the medicine carefully. Of course, she didn''t use it for self-defense. She was going to use it on Jing Zhi.
When mu Sen gave it to her, he had told her that this pill was enough to knock out an elephant. He had asked her to use it several times and not use it all at once.
However, Zheng yuluo knew that Jing Zhi''s body was special. He had once bragged that he was immune to all poisons, so she had used the entire pill today.
Jing Yiran''s mind was in a mess and he was in an extremely bad mood. He was about to curse when Lu''s cold hand held his.
Lu nced at the twins and said in a cold voice,""Let''s go to master Jing. I should be able to provide him with some clues to find our son!"
She could also sense that the person who kidnapped her son was definitely not a human trafficker.
She guessed that her son''s Secret had been identally exposed.
It didn''t matter who had exposed his secret or what Zheng yuluo had done to Jing Zhi. What was important was that they knew who had taken Jing Zhi away!
She only had one son, and she had been taking care of him with all her heart. She wanted her son to live in love.
Jing Zhi was very close to her. He always looked up and smiled."Mom, I''m amazing, right? More powerful than you?"
However, she had lost her son, and it was very likely that one of her enemies had done it!
Lu could not imagine what would happen to Jing Zhi if he fell into their hands.
She couldn''t stay any longer. She pulled Jing Yiran to Jing Yichen''s ce.
Jing Yichen was in a meeting at Jingsheng enterprise today. He frowned when Lu and Jing Yiran appeared in the meeting room.
The people in the meeting room were all the top management of Jingsheng enterprise. They knew Jing Yiran and Lu. They were all surprised to see them running into the meeting room.
Jing Yiran didn''t care what others thought and said anxiously,"Brother, Jing Zhi was taken away. Help me find him!"
Jing Yichen threw a nce at him and said to the senior management,"Meeting adjourned. We''ll resume the meeting tomorrow."
All the senior managers were shocked. Didn''t Jing Yichen, the president, always get along with Jing Yiran? Why did it seem that she was going to help Jing Yiran find his son?
Chapter 897: The mysterious organization (1)
Chapter 897: The mysterious organization (1)
Jing Zhi''s disappearance was a big deal. Jing Yichen had spent a whole day and night investigating and finally found out that Jing Zhi had been taken out of the country.
Although Jing Yiran used to be a ridiculous man and had made many enemies in the country, none of those people could hide themselves so well and bring Jing Zhi out of the country in such a short time.
The only possibility was Lu''s enemy.
Her enemies were all the most powerful forces in the world. It would be easy for her to take Jing Zhi away.
Jing Yichen started his investigation based on the clues Lu had provided.
However, the other party had erased all traces of him and taken Jing Zhi away so suddenly without any warning.
He didn''t use any tricks or foreshadowing. He just took advantage of Zheng yuluo and her sister''s hatred for Jing Zhi and made them send Jing Zhi to them.
A monthter, there was still no news of Jing Zhi.
The Jing family had mobilized all their resources, but they still couldn''t find Jing Zhi.
Jing Yichen was sitting in Jing Yiran and Lu''s Vi as he said calmly, "I''ve talked to several global organizations and institutions, but they all said that they didn''t do anything to Jing Zhi. We''ve investigated him in private and found out the same thing."
"I suspect that the killer organization and the research Agency that created the virus have joined forces to get Jing Zhi at the same time," he continued slowly after a pause.
There were so many benefits to Jing Zhi that the two organizations had to take such a huge risk together. They were even willing to turn against family Jing. The top management of family Jing, who used to be close to family Jing, had all passed away in the past nine years. Their current boss didn''t have a close rtionship with family Jing.
Lu''s parents had even used their own daughter as a test subject in order to do some Virus Research. It was not hard to imagine how crazy the people inside were about this kind of virus.
This research institution was extremely mysterious around the world. Most people had never known that such an institution existed in the world. Many of the research done in it could shock and even frighten ordinary people.
It had been so many years, but none of them had been able to develop a virus that was more advanced than the one in Lu.
The research on gic modification hade to a standstill. Although they had gotten enough blood from Lu more than a decade ago, they could not have more "young deers".
They had been so eager to catch Lu for in-depth research, but Blood Research was not enough to satisfy them.
But now, they did not need Lu at all.
Jing Zhi was much more valuable than Lu, because the virus inside him was more powerful and he was still a child, so he was easier to control.
So Lu had the same conclusion as Jing Yichen.
She stood up slowly and said firmly,""I''ll go negotiate with them!"
"No!"
Jing Yiran stopped her immediately."You can not go!"
In the past month, Jing Yiran had lost a lot of weight. His handsome face had be more angr, and he looked more aggressive.
His son was missing and he could not let Lu get involved in this!
"Don''t go, I''ll go save our son!"
He was a man and his first reaction was to take the responsibility himself. He did not want Lu to take the risk, even though there was a huge difference between their abilities.
Lu''s baby face was full of stubbornness."No, I have to go. It''s useless for you to go."
Nine years had passed. Lu''s face looked exactly the same as before, and neither did her body. Her strength and speed had not decreased. The virus had retained her face and greatly extended her life.
This virus, like the immortal elixir, had a huge temptation that seriously vited thews of nature, which was why the group of people who studied viruses were so eager to study it.
In the depths of Africa''s hot desert, in a small oasis, a few fully armed men were patrolling.
Looking at their clothes and equipment, one would think that they were regr soldiers. However, if one looked closely, one would think that they were different from real soldiers. It was just that it was difficult for outsiders to see the difference.
The leader was tall and strong, and he scolded his men in broken English,""All of you, be more alert! Report immediately if you find anything abnormal! If we''re attacked underground, we''ll all die! Recently, the higher-ups have sent over an important person. We can''t let anything happen!"
All of his subordinates knew how important this matter was. They were already the third group of people who hade here. The first two groups had been executed because they had not done their job well enough and had leaked some information.
No one wanted to die Here, even if they were all desperadoes.
In the depths of the desert, there was an empty Pce that was dead silent.
The pce followed the architectural style of 17th century Europe. It was extremely luxurious, and everything was golden. Upon closer inspection, the Golden color on the walls was not painted, but really gilded!
A nine-year-old boy was lying in one of the rooms.
His facial features were very beautiful, like the most perfect work of art in the world, but his skin was so pale that it was almost transparent, destroying that beauty.
All kinds of tubes were connected to dozens of the world''s most advanced and precise instruments, which made a slight beeping sound from time to time to remind him of thetest condition of his body.
Beside him, there were two men and two women in white. They were recording the data while adjusting the dosage of the medicine injected into the little boy''s body to prevent him from going into shock and fainting likest time because of the injection.
Jing Zhi was woken up by the endless pain. He opened his eyes and saw the four "doctors" who were both familiar and strange at the same time.
"Doctor, when will I get better? I want to go home ..."
Out of the four "doctors", only one woman knew Chinese and could understand him.
"Baby, you''re very sick. I''m afraid you''ll have to stay here for a while. When you''re better, we''ll send you home soon. However, you have to cooperate with the treatment, or else I won''t let your brothere to see you. "
The middle-aged woman used her gentlest voice and most sincere expression to lie. She smiled at Jing Zhi and drew arge tube of blood from him.
When they saw the blood, the four people''s eyes lit up.
Jing Zhi didn''t notice the strange expressions on the four of them. His mind waspletely drawn away by the word "brother."
"Auntie, are you serious? Did you guys agree to let big brothere and see me?"
In the endless pain, the only thing that made Jing Zhi happy was that his brother coulde to see him!
Chapter 898: The mysterious organization (2)
Chapter 898: The mysterious organization (2)
The woman recovered from the excitement of drawing his blood. She patted Jing Zhi''s pale face with her cold hands and smiled gently."Of course, when have I ever lied to you? As long as you''re obedient, not only can your brothere to see you, but your parents can alsoe!"
"Okay, okay, okay, I''ll be good!" Jing Zhi nodded happily.
In fact, even if he didn''t listen, these people would still have a way to listen.
Jing Zhi didn''t know how long he had been trapped in this hospital. He thought that this was a hospital and had no idea that the four people in white coats were not doctors. He had been forced to stay here ever since he woke up. He was tied up every day, had his blood drawn, and transfused with all kinds of liquids.
Some of the liquids made him wish he was dead, and his whole body hurt like he was being pricked by needles. Some of the liquids made him hallucinate, and he always felt that he was home and talking to his brother.
He tried to resist in fear, but it was useless. The result of his resistance was that he was beaten up and a tube of blood was drawn.
He was very smart and immediately learned to be obedient. He no longer resisted and allowed them to do as they pleased.
He didn''t know why he was in the hospital, and it was a very strange hospital. It was very different from family MU''s Hospital where his father worked, and the doctors here made him feel scared.
But he had grown up with Jing Tianyuan. Even though he was only nine years old, he knew that the situation was very strange. His blood was very special. He had never dared to touch anyone since he was a child, for fear that the virus in his body would kill them. But now, these people had taken his blood without any hesitation.
He had a strong sense of rejection towards the people here, but he was smart enough not to show it. He only used the most childish tone to look for his father, mother, and brother.
A tall male doctor said to the other three in English,""Don''t draw too much. If he dies, we won''t have such a good specimen for research! What an amazing body! These small viruses actually have such great power. They''repletely different from the viruses we cultivated before! It was perfect! This child must Live!"
The other three nodded in agreement. They looked at Jing Zhi as if he was a piece of shining gold.
Jing Zhi felt his hair stand on end under their stares. He asked the woman who could speak Chinese in a weak voice,""Auntie, what did he say just now?"
"He''s saying that we must do our best to cure your illness!"The woman said with a smile.
"Oh," Jing Zhi replied, then closed his eyes tiredly.
His little face was filled with pain, but his heart was cold.
He could understand English!
He knew very well what the man was talking about!
Specimen?
He was a human, how could he be a specimen?
He only knew that in school, his biology teacher had taught him how to make specimens of butterflies and nts. When did he make a living person into a specimen?
They rarely spoke in front of him, and today was the day they spoke the most.
Who were these people? They were obviously foreigners. Was he no longer in A city? There were very few foreign doctors in the hospitals of A city.
As the days went by, Jing Zhi felt that he was asleep more than awake.
His memory was slowly fading away, but he was still obsessed with his brother. Every day, he would ask the doctor when his brother woulde.
Half a monthter, his perseverance finally bore fruit.
The doctor had actually found his brother!
Jing Zhi was overjoyed. He cried in joy. His brother really came to see him! He had even forgotten the intense pain in his body!
However, he soon realized that something was wrong.
The man''s appearance and temperament were very simr to Jing Rui ''s, but his aura was not right.
Jing Zhi''s burning heart was doused with a bucket of cold water, but he didn''t give up. His lips trembled as he asked,"Brother, I''m cold. Can you get me a cup of hot water?"
"Jing Rui" looked at him coldly and said nothing. He did not pour him a cup of hot water, as if Jing Zhi was just air.
Jing Zhi''s heart sank.
This wasn''t her brother!
Although he looked exactly like his brother, and his temperament was very simr to Jing Rui ''s, and he had even learned Jing Rui''s cold and quiet habits, Jing Zhi only needed one sentence to find out that the person in front of him was not Jing Rui.
Jing Rui did not usually respond to him, but he would go to the hospital to visit him during the blood transfusion every two years. Every time he said that he was cold and wanted to drink hot water, Jing Rui would get him some water.
Jing Zhi was too disappointed, too scared, and too weak to take it. He passed out very quickly.
The doctors thought Jing Zhi had passed out from excitement and didn''t think much of it.
If it were not for the fact that they wanted tofort Jing Zhi and prevent him from dying out of disappointment, they would not have gone to such great lengths to find a man who looked very simr to Jing Rui, make him the best skin mask, and even put in so much effort to cultivate his cold temperament.
But now it seemed that Jing Zhi had epted this fake brother. He could let this man keep Jing Zhipany in the future so that he would be in a better mood and live longer, so that they could do more research.
They had thought that they had sessfully fooled Jing Zhi, but they had forgotten that the virus in Jing Zhi''s body had given him many powerful abilities, one of which was his extraordinary sense of smell.
A person''s appearance might be able to be very simr to another person ''s, and their words and actions could also be imitated, but the aura could not be imitated.
The endless supply of medicine made Jing Zhi forget some things, but there were some things that he would never forget.
United Kingdom, Jing Rui had finished a day of studying the etiquette of the nobles. He slowly walked out of the ancient and solemn Pce and walked along an ancient Street to his residence.
The sunset cast a long shadow on the clean road, making Jing Rui look lonely and sad.
Jing Zhi had gone missing.
No matter how hard his family tried, they could not find him. It was as if he had disappeared from the world.
He didn''t want to stay here to learn etiquette. He wanted to go with his father to find Jing Zhi.
A shrill scream broke the silence of the evening. Jing Rui looked up and saw a little girl of about ten years old running towards him.
She was covered in blood. The two men in ck were chasing after her, and the distance between them was rapidly closing.
When the little girl saw Jing Rui, she rushed to the only person on the old Street.""Brother, why are you sote? they want to kill me, save me!"
Chapter 899
Chapter 899: The girl
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui did not move until the girl was about to touch him. He quickly dodged and did not let the girl touch his clothes.
The girl fell to the ground with a loud thud.
She was in so much pain that tears welled up in her eyes, and her little face was filled with shock and anger!
She was extremely beautiful. Even though she was only eleven years old this year, she was already a little beauty. In the past, she had always been praised by people. Everyone who saw her would be amazed by her beauty.
Although she was a little disheveled today, she was still very beautiful.
However, her beauty didnt y any role today!
That young man who looked to be about the same age as her actually left her in the lurch!
Jing Rui did not even look at the girl. He walked past her coldly.
The girl did not give up and screamed in a shrill voice,Brother, dont leave me behind. I was wrong. I wont run around anymore. Please save me. Im your sister!
Jing Rui did not seem to hear her and kept walking forward.
However, the two men in ck who were chasing the girl blocked his way. One of them pointed a gun at Jing Ruis forehead and said angrily,Brat, so youre this girls brother! Weve been looking for you for a long time, and youvee back so easily! Ill send you and your sister on your way today!
Another Man in ck stopped him.Just cripple them. Master wants them alive. We cant kill them at will.
He stepped forward and was about to break Jing Ruis leg.
Jing Rui had been in a terrible mood for the past month and a half. Jing Zhis disappearance had made him feel empty. Now that he had been stopped for no reason, he could not control his anger.
He nced at the two men in ck and saw that one of them raised the iron bar in his hand and was about to hit his leg. He quickly somersaulted in the air and dodged the iron bar. Then, he kicked the two men in ck quickly and urately.
The two men in ck did not expect Jing Rui to be so good at this. His series of actions were almost againstmon sense, and they could not react in time.
When they tried to stop Jing Rui, they found that they could not move.
The two men in ck fell to the ground with two loud thuds. Their eyes were wide open with anger, and their expressions were filled with fear. The arteries on their necks were ruptured, and blood gushed out like crazy.
Jing Ruinded steadily on the ground. Without looking at the two men in ck, he turned around and walked toward the girl who had asked for help.
It had only been two seconds since Jing Rui had attacked and the two men in ck had died.
The girl started to tremble uncontrobly!
She just wanted to use this luxuriously dressed boy to help her block the two people. She wanted to use him as a scapegoat and buy herself some time to escape.
He didnt expect the boy to have such a world-shaking Kung Fu!
Those two Men in ck were not ordinary people at all. How could they be killed so easily? However, the truth was right in front of their eyes. Both of them had guns in their hands, but they had lost their lives in the blink of an eye!
The girl knew that she had provoked an even more powerful opponent!
She crawled to Jing Ruis feet and cried pitifully,This big brother, thank you so much! Ill never forget the kindness of saving my life. When I get home, Ill definitely ask my father to prepare a big gift for you! Im really sorry for what happened just now. I was too scared, so I subconsciously called you big brother. I hope you can save me. Please dont take it to heart!
She wanted to grab Jing Ruis leg and beg for his forgiveness, but as soon as she reached out, Jing Rui kicked her away.
The girl was kicked more than ten meters away by him and spat out arge mouthful of blood.
Shey on the ground, terrified. This man was a demon! He was even more ruthless than those Men in ck!
Jing Rui walked to her side slowly and looked down at the injured girl. He said coldly,Next time, if you find a scapegoat, open your eyes a little wider. Otherwise, youll be the only one to die.
He didnt like it when others called him brother. Not everyone had the right to call him that.
The person who was most qualified to call him big brother was now unknown, and he was a little upset.
The girl in front of him could not arouse his sympathy at all. He just wanted to settle this matter as soon as possible and rush back to China.
He took out his gun and was about to shoot when a helicopter appeared above his head. Then, a dozen people quickly descended from the helicopter through the slidedder.
When one of the middle-aged men saw the girl on the ground, he quickly picked her up and called out to her in a trembling voice,Miss!
The girls tears fell and she cried pitifully,Uncle Rong, why are you only here now? I was almost killed! Wuwuwu ...
Miss, is it this brat who wants to kill you? You guys, take him away! Lets go back and let miss slowly torture and y with us!
A dozen of them quickly pointed their guns at Jing Rui.
Jing Rui stood there coldly. He was angry at these people for wasting his time.
The people in front of him were no match for him, but the other party had a helicopter hovering in the sky with countless guns aimed at his head.
It wouldnt be too difficult to kill everyone, but this was United Kingdom if things got out of hand, it would take a lot of time for him to return to China. His power would be exposed, and the people who had been protecting him in the dark would have to sacrifice their lives.
It was not worth it for a girl like this.
Jing Rui turned around and left without hesitation,pletely ignoring the people who were pointing their guns at him.
The middle-aged man shouted in anger,hey, kid, stop right there! One more step and Ill take your life!
Jing Rui stopped and turned around, looking at the middle-aged man with emotionless eyes.
Who are you? You actually dare to attack my familys young miss!
You dont deserve to know! And ... Jing Rui reached out his hand and gestured in a certain direction, and continued,Dead people dont need to know.
Following Jing Ruis gesture, the person who was hiding in the dark appeared beside him.
Kill them all, especially the woman.
Perhaps his tone was too arrogant, the other side was all stunned, they couldnt believe that he actually ignored their powerful strength and wanted to kill them all!
But Jing Rui did not care about the look in her eyes. He turned around and disappeared into the sunset after giving his orders.
He didnt want to make a big deal out of it, only because he was in a hurry to return home. However, since someone was looking for death, of course, he had to fulfill his wish!
Jing Yichen was slightly surprised when he saw his son. Didnt you arrange for your course tost for two months? Why did youe back so early?
Jing Rui sat down on the sofa opposite him and looked up at Jing Yichen. Instead of answering his question, he said,Dad, I want to join an assassin organization.
Chapter 900: A choice
Chapter 900: A choice
"Why?"
"I want to go train."
Jing Yichen threw a look at his calm son and asked in the same calm tone,"You didn''t go to the killer organization for Jing Zhi?"
Jing Rui was stunned, but did not deny it.
"You can''t go. The killer organization only teaches you how to kill, not how to manage a family. It will be a waste of time if you go. The heir of family Jing doesn''t need to act on impulse, but to analyze the situation and solve problems in the most effective way."
Jing Yichen wasn''t angry at his son''s decision, but he wasn''t happy either.
"I''m trying my best to negotiate with them. Lu has already gone there. Family Jing is so powerful that even we failed to achieve anything. What you need to do now is not to take risks alone, but to improve yourself and umte enough power to fight against those tyrannical forces. Only when you''re strong enough will you have the right to speak and get Jing Zhi back. "
"Dad, I want to try."
Jing Rui knew that he was not as powerful as the whole family, but if he could join the killer organization and show his talent, he could be a core member. Then he would have a high chance of meeting Jing Zhi.
Jing Yichen was getting a headache from his son''s persistence.
When did he be so close to Jing Zhi? He was scratched by Jing Zhi when he was little and almost lost his life. Why didn''t he hold a grudge?
"No, you can''t go. It''s very hard for me to send someone in to protect you. It''ll be too dangerous for you to go there, and you won''t be able to save Jing Zhi. You''ll both die. "
He would never agree to let Jing Rui go to that kind of ce, and neither would Jing zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan.
Jing Rui was only twelve years old. He was talented and much more capable than his peers, but he was still a child. If he joined a killer organization, he would be living in hell every day. The death rate there was extremely high, and he could die if he was not careful.
Jing Rui was the only heir of the Jing family. If anything happened to him, the Jing family would be in great danger.
What was more, this was his own son who he had raised, and Jing Yichen would never let anything happen to him.
"You cane with me to save them, but you''re not allowed to act alone. We''re not sure which organization has Jing Zhi, so don''t break into the organization. We''ll decide what to do after we''ve confirmed his location. "
Jing Rui was silent for a while before he said,""Alright, let me know when you''ve confirmed Jing Zhi''s location. Also, don''t tell my mom that I want to join a killer organization, in case she gets worried. "
Jing Yichen nodded and started to n the next training for him.
In the underground pce deep in the desert, Jing Zhi woke up in the dark. He was confused for a while before he remembered who he was.
His memory was getting more and more blurry, and he could no longer remember many things.
There was no concept of time in the underground world. Jing Zhi didn''t know if it was day or night, or how long he had been here. Two months felt like two centuries to him.
The blood in his body was decreasing every day. Although the doctors would also transfuse blood to him, he always felt that his strength seemed to be decreasing.
The amount of medicine he had been given to his body seemed to have decreased. He felt much more awake and was no longer so sleepy.
She heard footsteps and someone pushed open the door.
It was an unfamiliar face. Jing Zhi looked at the man in confusion. He didn''t know what this man was doing here. Was he here to draw his blood too? What was so special about his blood? why was it that every time someone came and saw his blood, they would lose control of their excitement?
The person who came in spoke American English and scolded the doctors angrily,""What are you guys doing? Why did he have to be like this? With such a half-dead look, how could I expect him to be a top assassin in the future? In his current condition, he can''t even lift a gun!"
The leader of the four doctors said with some dissatisfaction,""You only know how to kill. We took his blood for the research of the evolution of the whole human race. You already have so many killers under yourmand. I heard that Angel, who is ranked first, has gone back. We''ll keep him here for long-term research. This way, we can develop an immortal virus faster. "
"A bunch of perverts, you''ll all be viruses sooner orter! The virus in Angel''s body was also created by you, and she almost died several times from those viruses! The premise of our cooperation is to make Jing Zhi our killer. If you go back on your word, I''ll report this to our boss. If you want to take Jing Zhi for yourself, you''ll have to pay the worst price!"
"Of course Jing Zhi can be your killer. It''s not a problem for us, as long as we draw blood from him regrly."
"You guys hurry up and take care of his body! The next time Ie back, if he''s still half-dead, our assassins will chase you to the ends of the earth!"
Jing Zhi was listening to their argument as hey in bed. He was moved when he heard the name "Angel."
The name sounded familiar, but he couldn''t remember who this person was.
Jing Yichen received Lu''s message very soon. Jing Zhi was still alive and in the hands of the virus Research Agency. He would be sent to the assassin camp for basic training in a month at most.
Jing Yichen told the news to Jing zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan, and then to Jing Yiran, but not to Jing Rui.
There were too many mysterious addresses of the virus Research institutions. He wanted to find out Jing Zhi''s exact location as soon as possible and rescue him before he was transferred to the assassin camp. Otherwise, it would be more difficult to rescue him once he was in the camp.
However, before Jing Yichen could locate Jing Zhi, Jing Rui had disappeared as well.
Soon, Tiger and Lee duo found out that Jing Rui had killed a candidate who had been chosen by the assassin organization and had sessfully entered the camp.
After hearing the news, Jing Yichen stayed silent for a while before he said,"Try your best to protect Jing Rui. He can go in, but it will be hard for him toe out."
If Jing Yichen tried his best to fight against the entire killer organization, he was fifty percent sure that he could get Jing Rui out of there.
But he clearly wanted to stay there.
In fact, an assassin organization would teach assassins many things. In addition to killing, they would also teach them how to save their lives.
Perhaps, this was a huge fortune in Jing Rui''s life.
He had chosen this path himself. No matter how hard it was, he had to persevere. If he seeded, he would start a different journey in life!
(The end of the main story)
Chapter 901
Chapter 901: The life of a killer (1)
Trantor: 549690339
On the vast surface of the Pacific Ocean, there were many uninhabited inds.
Two helicopters hovered over arger ind and dropped a thousand children on the ground.
Among the one thousand children, there were big and small children, some were dressed in ragged clothes, some were dressed in gorgeous clothes, but the expression on their faces was basically the same: He was confused and fearful.
Standing in front of the children was a thin and weak man wearing a mask. He stood with his hands behind his back and said gloomily,Assassin camp, Group One hundred and seventy-two. The first ind selection begins now. They were allowed to use all methods and external forces. The ranking was determined by the number of people killed, and only the top ten were allowed. The helicopter wille to pick you up in ten days.
Kill ... Kill someone?
Only ten out of a thousand people?
Some of the more timid children had already been scared to tears by this scene.
He had been captured and brought here for no reason. This was an appalling assassin camp with no food or drink. It was like a nightmare!
A few brave ones asked loudly,What about those after the tenth ce?
The masked man said indifferently,Stay here forever and wait for the rainy season. When the sea level rises, the ind will be submerged.
Everyone sucked in a cold breath!
Not to mention that the ind would be submerged by the sea water, even if it wasn t, it was impossible to survive on such a deste Ind!
The masked man didnt care about the childrens cries and fear. He turned around, got into the helicopter, and left indifferently and cruelly.
There were a thousand children, and many of them had not even woken up from their nightmares. They always felt that there was still hope and could not help but want to find apanion. Under such circumstances, it might be the most beneficial to form a team.
This Ind was located in the tropical zone. The small ind was covered in dense tropical rainforest vegetation, so it was actually rtively easy to hide.
However, if they kept hiding and couldnt kill, they would end up killing too few people and would still be left on the ind.
Although they didnt know how the other party knew the number of people they had killed, the assassin camp had existed for hundreds of years. They must have their own methods, so no one dared to be careless.
In ten days, the ind was filled with countless corpses and rivers of blood.
After a storm, the helicopter arrived as promised.
The masked man nced at the four youths standing in front of him and nodded in satisfaction.Lets go!
Ten out of a thousand people. No one had expected that only four were left!
Everyone wanted to live, so they were all fighting with their lives. On thest day, it was the most intense day of fighting. There were originally over a hundred people who had survived, but when everyone saw that there were still so many people, they all started to fight.
Among the four teenagers, there was a cold and handsome boy. He was the tallest and the calmest of the four. The other three were rejoicing and terrified because they didnt know what was waiting for them.
This year, there were four 1000-person elimination battles.
That year, Jing Rui was 13 years old. He grew rapidly in the midst of killing and became the top killer in the Asian region of the assassin camp.
Every year, the first ce of each region would be given a codename by the killer organization. Jing Ruis codename was lightning, which meant his agility and speed.
There was also an eleven-year-old boy who stood out from the thousands of people. He was the first ce in Africa, and his code name was mo Mei.
Five yearster, after the careful training of the killer organization, all the new killers began to be unified in their tasks.
In fact, from the second year of a neer entering the assassin camp, they would be assigned missions, but those were very simple killing missions, and there would be superiors to help clean up the aftermath.
The current mission was a real one. It was his first official mission. If he failed the mission, the only thing that awaited the newbie killer was death.
Perhaps it was because the assassin organization had only trained elites, or perhaps everyone was afraid of death, but the first mission had not failed!
In this batch of killers, the most famous killer was mo Mei. Not only was he cruel and merciless, but his way of killing was also strange. He was also one of the few killers who had a strong background.
In the assassin camp, everyone lived together regardless of gender. Only mo Mei had a single room, and his food was different from the others. Even his clothes were bulletproof! The missions assigned to him were not the simplest, but they were the ones with the lowest risks.
The most shocking thing was that other than carrying out missions, mo Mei could enter and exit the heavily guarded underground assassin camp at will!
The word powerful could no longer be used to describe such a background.
It was a pity that although everyone trained with mo Mei every day, no one knew who he was, nor did anyone know his true appearance.
No one in an assassin organization would show their true face to others. Their true face had to be collected once a year and kept in a file so that the higher-ups of the assassin organization could know their appearance. Except for the higher-ups, all assassins were required to hide their identity. Once their identity was exposed, they would be killed immediately.
Mo Mei wore a human skin mask every day, and it was the best and most realistic mask, so no one recognized him.
Except for Jing Rui.
Two years ago, all the new killers had been brought back to the killer Camp together for intensive training. They were taught all kinds of killing and disguising skills.
Jing Rui met mo Mei at that time.
Killers were not allowed to have any contact with each other, and they were not even allowed to talk. So Jing Rui was not sure who mo Mei was at first, but he felt that mo Mei was familiar with him. More importantly, he found that mo Mei seemed to be familiar with him too.
Both of them were wearing human skin masks, so they couldnt see each others faces, but there was a faint sense of deja vu.
Moreover, mo Meis treatment was different from all the other killers, which raised Jing Ruis suspicion.
He had found a way to get mo Meis fingerprints and handed them over to Jing Yichens spy in the assassin camp, who was in charge ofparing the fingerprints.
However, the results of the fingerprintparison did not match!
Jing Rui was confused, but he did not give up, because fingerprints could be faked. If Jing Zhi was so important to those people, they would have prepared all kinds of protective measures.
He wasnt in a hurry and patiently waited for an opportunity.
Jing Rui had a strong feeling that mo Mei was Jing Zhi.
He didnt lose an arm or a leg, and he looked very smart. The treatment he received was dozens of times better than his, which showed that he was living very well.
Jing Rui did not care about the hardship he had to go through in the killer organization. He and Jing Zhi were not delicate people, and it was fine to suffer. Otherwise, he would have suffered a lot in the Jing familys training.
Chapter 902: The life of a killer (2)
Chapter 902: The life of a killer (2)
The training of assassins was not always the same. Everyone had different abilities and different focuses, so their training methods were not the same.
The assassin Battalion had reached the peak in this regard and had taught ording to the students ''aptitudes. The vast underground training ground was divided into many areas, so Jing Rui could not always meet Mo Mei.
Moreover, there were surveince cameras everywhere in the underground training ground. It would be extremely difficult to get mo Mei''s hair for appraisal.
Jing Rui did not believe the results of the fingerprint analysis. Mo Mei''s actions and the rumors were too simr to Jing Zhi ''s.
For example, mo Mei and Jing Zhi liked to stroke their chins, and he had learned this habit from Jing Yiran.
For example, mo Mei had a huge appetite, just like Jing Zhi. Their training was very tough. They had four meals a day, while mo Mei''s meal count was fixed. He could eat as many as he wanted. There was a chef in the assassin camp who was in charge of cooking for him.
After years of observation and the clues he had gotten from Lu, Jing Zhi was now sure that mo Mei was Jing Zhi.
From the moment they officially epted the mission, the killers had been traveling all over the world.
New killers were not famous and could not take any private orders. They could only take on tasks assigned by the killer Camp, and the pay was very low.
Half a yearter, the ranking of the new killers by the killer Camp was out.
However, to everyone''s surprise, the first ce was not mo Mei, who everyone had high hopes for, but lightning, who had a mediocre daily performance!
ording to the rules, new killers had to take on a mission every week. If the mission was difficult, the difficulty level would be calcted separately, and the time could be extended ordingly.
Not only did lightning kill the most number of people, but the overall difficulty was also the highest, so high that it was several times higher than mo Mei.
The entire assassin organization was extremely shocked. As a newbie, it was simply a miracle to be able toplete the mission so well in half a year!
Jing Rui received a Grand wee when he returned to the base.
Not only did he change his residence into a luxury suite, but he also had a chef and servants. He also got the opportunity to meet with the leaders of the killer organization.
There were only three top leaders, and they were all men.
Jing Rui''s eyes were covered and he was taken away by a helicopter.
Jing Rui had a strong sense of perception. Even if he was blindfolded, he could still urately calcte the direction and time of flight.
He had to remember this ce so that he could kill his way back to this ce in the future.
Yes, he didn''t want to be an assassin. He wanted to rece him and be the Supreme Commander of the assassin organization!
He had spent so many years here not only to save Jing Zhi, but also to take down the entire killer organization.
The helicopternded on an ind, and Jing Rui''s blindfold was taken off.
What entered his sight was an Ind Resort with extremely beautiful scenery. The White beach, green vegetation, and blue sea water formed a beautiful picture, making people linger and not want to leave.
However, Jing Rui was born in the Jing family and lived a luxurious life before the age of twelve. He had been to the ind three times, but he never went there again after he found it boring.
He was immune to all beautiful scenery and treasures, so the scene in front of him did not enter his eyes at all.
He followed the person who led the way with full vignce. He did not rx until they entered the holiday vi.
The assassin camp did not teach him anything else, but the sense of self-protection and self-defense had long been deeply ingrained in his bones. Now, even if someone did nothing but stare at him, he could still feel it.
Most of the assassins with a higher realm had this ability.
They entered the vi and went up to the second floor. Jing Rui opened the door of a guest room and walked in slowly.
There were three men in their 50s sitting inside, and they all had an air of authority that was hard to ignore. Jing Rui nced at them and found that they were all wearing human-skin masks.
She didn''t want to show her real face because she was afraid of being killed by a top-tier assassin like him, right?
Jing Rui sat down calmly in front of the three of them. He was wearing a skin mask today, but it was useless in front of these three people, because his real appearance had been made into a 3D image and sent to them the day before he came.
"Lightning, your ability is outstanding. Our Management Committee has decided to let you join the management."
Jing Rui had already guessed the reason for their visit. He nodded coldly."Alright," he said.
All the management in the assassin organization were outstanding assassins. While they killed, they could enjoy a huge bonus and participate in the management of the assassin group. This way, the entire assassin organization would be more stable.
The three men in front of her must have been top assassins who had shocked the world back then. Otherwise, they would not have been able to stand out from the management and be promoted to the power level. They had been in power for ten years. It was only after the three of them had taken over that Jing Zhi had been taken away by the Virus Research Institute.
Jing Rui was determined to kill the three of them. Jing Zhi was only ten years old when he was taken away. He was a child who only knew how to ask for sweets from his brother. He was naughty but obedient. But now, he had been transformed into a cold-blooded killer by these people.
If he couldn''t take the three of them down, he and Jing Zhi would never be able to get rid of their identities as killers. If they wanted to leave this organization, death would be the only way.
Those who left the assassin organization without permission would be hunted down by all the assassins!
However, Jing Rui could not show his emotions on his face. He had the intention to kill, but he did not show it. Instead, he deliberately showed a strong wariness.
The three men were observing Jing Rui and were satisfied after half an hour. He was a cold, emotionless killer, which was exactly what they wanted.
He was the best killing machine, and in the future, he would bring endless rewards to the organization!
Twenty yearster, this young man who was only eighteen years old might take over their position and be the leader here.
Unfortunately, Jing Rui could not wait for twenty years. Two years was his limit.
He wanted to be the king of this ce, the ruler of this ce!
In the future, no one would dare to casually touch his family!
After getting the password from the manager, Jing Rui went out and was ready to leave in the helicopter.
However, just as he was about to leave, another helicopternded.
The door of the helicopter opened, and a girl around 17 or 18 years old walked out.
She had long, ink-like hair, a slender figure, and a cold temperament. She exuded a killing intent that only new killers had.
Chapter 903: Meeting but not knowing
Chapter 903: Meeting but not knowing
Jing Rui knew the girl.
She was the most powerful one among all the female killers.
The ratio of men to women in the assassin camp was imbnced. Male killers made up 80% of the camp, while female killers only made up 20%.
Men and women had different physiological structures. Unless they had a fortuitous encounter, women were naturally weaker than men. Women were more impulsive and emotional, so there were very few women who were suitable to be assassins.
The girl in front of him had the code name of "Zishan" in the assassin camp.
This name sounded nice and did not seem to have any killing power. However, the code names given to their own killers by the assassin camp all had a deep meaning.
The Amethyst fir was amon tree in European forests and one of the most poisonous trees in the world. The entire tree was highly toxic.
Having such a codename was enough to prove how powerful this slender young girl was.
Before he joined the killer organization, Jing Rui had been very proud of himself. But after he joined the organization, he found that they were all weirdos! Every year, the assassin organization would gather talents from all over the world, and many of them had their own special abilities.
He had ranked first in the past six months because he wanted to get closer to the people in power. On the other hand, most people, including Jing Zhi, had hidden their real strength.
Zishan was ranked third in the ranking, just behind Jing Rui and Jing Zhi, so Jing Rui had a deep impression of her.
However, that was all.
Sensing Jing Rui''s gaze, Zi Shan looked at him.
Obviously, she had recognized that Jing Rui was ''lightning'', who was ranked first in theprehensive ability.
She looked at Jing Rui, who was wearing a human skin mask, and then left.
Jing Rui also got on the helicopter and returned to the base.
At night, he logged into the internal system of the assassin organization. On the system''s noticeboard, there was a line of very obvious writing: Lightning, mo Mei, and Zi Shan will be the managers. The three of them will have the right to speak in the assassin world. From today onwards, the restrictions on their activities will be lifted.
The meaning of thest sentence was that the three of them were free to move around and did not need to live in the killer base in the future.
But Jing Rui was not happy to hear this. He was not here to leave, but to take Jing Zhi away.
A few dayster, Jing Rui found that he, Jing Zhi and Zishan had not left the base.
He didn''t care if Zishan had left or not. He only cared about Jing Zhi.
With his current ability, he couldn''t let Jing Zhi get away. Even if he could, he would be caught by the killer organization. No matter how strong he was, he couldn''tpete with a killing organization that had been established for hundreds of years.
A white Bugatti was parked in front of the gate of a Green University in North America.
A young man in a white suit got out of the car and walked in unhurriedly.
The school''s environment was not bad, and the name was also quite high-end. It was called The Life Scientific research college.
Of course, there were many simr schools in North America, and this school was just the most unremarkable one.
There weren''t many students and teachers in the school. The school had been able tost for so many years only because it had received donations from society.
However, no one knew that all kinds of fatal viruses had been developed here, and the world''s most incredible virus, Pi Xiu, had been developed to date to modify human genes, greatly extending lifespan and improving all aspects of abilities, which wereparable to robots.
Jing Zhi, who was carrying the virus, pushed open the door of aboratory and walked in.
The two female students who were in charge of drawing his blood were so scared that their legs went soft and they broke out in cold sweat when they saw hime in. They didn''t even dare to look at him.
However, no matter how scared he was, he still had to draw his blood. This was a task assigned by his mentor, and he had toplete it.
However, they were all in despair. The consequence of offending their teacher was toe here and draw blood for this pervert. Their lives, which were as beautiful as flowers, were going to end here!
This young man named Sean was a demon!
Every person who drew his blood would die a tragic death at home the next day! So far, thousands of students had died in his hands, and at least dozens of instructors had died in his hands!
There weren''t many people in the school to begin with. Every year, he would kill a batch of them, so there were even fewer people. Moreover, those who heard the news didn''t dare to send their children to this private university.
Jing Zhi didn''t seem to notice the two girls "fear of him. He gave them a friendly smile and greeted them warmly,""Hi, how are you guys? I''m Sean, God is kind, he sent me to save you!"
His voice was very pleasant, and his smile was very bright. He was like an innocent young man, pure and beautiful.
However, the two female students were so frightened by his white teeth that they were trembling all over. They only felt that his voice hade from hell!
The meaning of the name Sean was that God was merciful.
It was trulyughable! God was not kind at all. He was so cruel that he sent them to this demon''s side to die!
Jing Zhi''s smile became even gentler when he saw the two girls trembling. He took off his suit jacket, rolled up his sleeves, and offered his arm to the two."Go ahead, but don''t hurt me. Otherwise, I''ll chop all ten fingers off!"
When the two girls heard this, their faces turned pale. They were so scared that they held their heads and squatted on the ground. How could they dare to draw his blood?
Jing Zhi waited for a long time, but the two of them didn''t get up. They squatted on the ground and cried miserably.
His little patience had run out. He gave each of them a kick, and the two girls were directly kicked out of the window.
The ss shattered, and after two screams, there was no more sound outside the window.
Theboratory was on the first floor. If it had been any higher, Zheng yuluo felt that she would have been dead.
However, her current physical condition was not much better. If she was not sent to the hospital in time, she would still lose her life.
All the bones in her body seemed to have been shattered by Sean''s kick, and the bone-corroding pain almost made her faint.
However, she forced herself to stay awake. She had to wait for Sean to leave and then get someone to send her to the hospital.
She couldn''t die!
It was not worth it to die like this!
She hadn''t found Jing Zhi and she hadn''t atoned for her sins. She had to live!
Zheng yuluo vomitedrge mouthfuls of blood. The blood was mixed with fine internal organs. She gradually lost hope. Her internal organs were crushed and she was bleeding profusely. She could not hold on for long in this state.
Was he going to die in this foreign country?
She was only fifteen years old this year, and the new year was in a few days. She had wanted to return to China and stay there for a few days when she turned sixteen, but it seemed like she couldn''t go back now.
Sean''s kick was really ruthless!
Her ribs were broken and her internal organs were crushed!
Her ssmate, who was not far away from her, was gradually losing her breath.
Others said that they would die that night after drawing blood for the devil, but if they didn''t draw blood, they wouldn''t even live that night.
Chapter 904
Chapter 904: The will to live
Trantor: 549690339
Studying life sciences abroad was Zheng yuluos own request. Her parents were worried, but she had made up her mind. After saying goodbye to her twin sister, she went abroad alone.
Ever since Jing Zhis disappearance, she had fallen seriously ill and had a knot in her heart that couldnt be untied.
She had been insensible since she was young and had been spoiled by her family. As she grew up, the guilt and regret in her heart grew heavier and heavier.
She didnt dare to meet Jing Zhis parents and rtives, not even her own family.
Mu Sen had said that Jing Zhi was not dead, but he would rather die than be captured.
A fate worse than death?
Zheng yuluo didnt know what kind of darkness Jing Zhi had been living in. She only knew that she had been struggling on the edge of life and death for the past six years, suffering in purgatory.
She hated herself!
She had wanted tomit suicide countless times, but she had given up countless times.
It wasnt that she didnt want to die, but she didnt think she had the right to die before she found Jing Zhi and was sure that he was still alive.
Her consciousness was a little blurry. Zheng yuluo bit the tip of her tongue hard, trying to keep herself awake.
She specialized in life science. Although she did not know how to perform surgery, she was already considered half a doctor. She knew that the longer she stayed awake, the more survival instincts she had.| The stronger the desire, the higher the possibility of survival.
The sound of unhurried footsteps rang in his ears, getting closer and clearer.
It was Sean!
That murderous demon!
Zheng yuluo closed her eyes and held her breath, pretending to be dead.
Aughing voice sounded above her head,Youre quite lucky to be alive after being kicked by me. Look at your ssmate, didnt he die? Why didnt you die?
The disguise had failed!
She had tried her best to imitate him, and she was really dying, so how did he find out that she was still alive?
He was indeed a demon!
Since Sean had seen through her, Zheng yuluo no longer pretended. She opened her eyes and endured the intense pain all over her body. She raised her eyes slightly and looked at Sean. Dont kill me, I cant die, I cant ...
She was so weak that she couldnt even hear herself, but Jing Zhi did.
Even if he could not hear it, he could tell from Zheng yuluos lip-reading that she was not speaking English but Chinese!
Strange, he clearly didnt remember learning Chinese, so how could he understand what she was saying?
He was sure that he had never learned thisnguage in the killer organization.
He couldnt remember many things from the past. He could understand Chinese. Did he learn it when he was young?
He had wanted to kick the living ones a * s and make her die as soon as possible. There was no good person in this Research Institute! All of you should die!
However, he suddenly didnt want to make up for it.
Jing Zhi put his hands in the pockets of his white suit pants and shouted,Someone, help! Someones injured!
His voice was clear and bright, as if it had been washed by spring water. It carried a trace of the unique sexiness of a teenager, which was intoxicating.
Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, was unusually sober!
She didnt hear wrong, did she? He was calling for someone to save her?
Wasnt he going to kill her? What kind of trick was this?
The teenagers clear voice echoed throughout the campus. Someone peeked out of the window and shrank back in fear when he saw Jing Zhi.
Today was the day of the demons descent on the Academy. Not a single student or teacher dared to appear in front of him. He was extremely bloodthirsty and took peoples lives based on his personal preferences without any reason. More importantly, he had killed so many people, but he was still safe and sound!
No matter how powerful the people he killed were, how high their positions were, or how rich they were, he didnt need to bear any responsibility for them!
Who would dare to offend such a person?
No one would anger a demon for a female student who was usually unknown.
Jing Zhi sighed.It seems that youre not going to live long. Youre not popr either. No one came to save you. Forget it. You should just die. One death means one less person here. Ill be happy if I can kill everyone here one day!
After he finished speaking, he nced at a few corners of the school, then slowly walked out of the school gate, got into his sports car, and sped away.
Zheng yuluoy on the cold ground, her heart in despair.
Sean was right. She was really not that popr. She had used up all her good luck when she was young. All her luck had disappeared after Jing Zhis disappearance.
Her personality had undergone a huge change six years ago. She was no longer the lively and proud twin sister, but a quiet and antisocial girl.
She didnt know anyone in this school, and she didnt want to know anyone. She only had one purpose here, and that was to find Jing Zhi.
Other than studying, she spent all her time looking for him and had no time to make friends.
She had heard from mu Sen and mu duo that Jing Zhi was probably somewhere in North America, so she hade.
Even if she had to spend the rest of her life, even if she had to search every corner of the world, she would find him!
Zheng yuluo, who was gradually losing consciousness, did not know that she had already passed by the person she was looking for. Her only thought was that she could not die!
Jing Zhis cell phone rang again and again as he drove on the highway. He didnt pick up the call, but hummed along to the ringtone, carefree and wild.
However, he didnt have time to be reckless for long. His car was stopped by two heavy trucksing from the opposite direction.
The two trucks upied the entire road, and unless they could fly, they could not pass through.
Jing Zhi stepped on the brakes, unbuckled his seat belt, and got out of the car.
Another person got out of the truck.
The man was in his forties. He was wearing a dark gray suit and a pair of gold-rimmed sses. He had deep facial features and short hair. He was a standard European noble.
For a person like him toe down from a truck, it was inexplicably a little out of ce.
Jing Zhi leaned on his luxurious sports car and smiled.Peter, when did you change your vehicle to a truck? Why arent you sitting in your bulletproof Ferrari? Oh, oh, oh, I see. You finally realized that the Ferrari cant take a hit, right?
Peters expression turned a little ugly.
His favorite car was a Ferrari, but Sean had smashed all the limited edition cars he had collected in the past three years!
Although he was extremely rich, he was still very distressed when a few Ferraris were destroyed every year!
In order to prevent the sports car from being run over by this crazy man again, he had specially rented two heavy trucks today.
Chapter 905: Cultivating the enemy
Chapter 905: Cultivating the enemy
Peter''s face was clearly filled with anger."Go back to school and draw your blood immediately! You''re not allowed to kill anyone!"
"I''m the one who decides where my blood will go. Why do you have the right to draw it whenever you want? After smoking for so many years and injecting me with so many random things, I didn''t be an idiot because I was lucky! As for killing people ... Didn''t you guys ask him to be an assassin? Other than killing, I don''t know how to do anything else!"
The smile on Jing Zhi''s face disappeared. His eyes, which were as long and narrow as Jing Yiran ''s, were full of coldness and ruthlessness.
Of course, he knew that his memories did not disappear out of thin air!
His memory before the age of ten was a nk. He was not a fool. How could he not know that it was the effect of those drugs!
"That''s for your own good, in case you don''t know anything and die too quickly! Your parents abandoned you, and you were the one who begged to join!"
"That''s not for sure! I''m afraid you won''t even believe your own words. Do I look so brainless that I''ll believe your stupid lies?"
Jing Zhi sneered. He was looking at Peter as if he was looking at an idiot.
"ording to the plot in the movie, you killed my parents and forced me to join your stupid organization! In order to prevent me from taking revenge on you, you used drugs to destroy all my memories!"
"We didn''t kill your parents!" Peter immediately denied. No one forced you back then!"
"Why are you in such a hurry to rify? This will only make you look guilty!"
All these years, Jing Zhi had never once asked about his family background.
Who were his parents? whether they were alive or dead? he had never asked or investigated.
As he gained a deeper understanding of the Virus Research Institute and the killer organization, he knew that his every move was under their surveince. Even if he investigated, he would not be able to get the truth.
The truth had long been covered up by them!
He would either die or live, and be stronger. Only when he was strong enough to find the truth would he start investigating.
When Jing Zhi saw Peter, a senior executive of the Research Institute, he really wanted to kill it. After all, every time he killed one, he would have one less opponent in the future!
Peter''s expression turned ugly when it sensed Jing Zhi''s killing intent.
He did not want Sean to undergo any killer training back then!
To train Sean into a top killer, wasn''t that digging their own grave?
They only had a few methods to control him, and none of them had the desired effect! Sean had already killed many of the virus researchers in the institution. Otherwise, they would not have asked him to draw blood from the school!
This school was specially set up by their research institution. There were a total of twelve of them around the world, and they sent talents to the Virus Research Institute every year. But now, Sean had already destroyed three of the academies, leaving only nine!
Sean would kill someone every time his blood was drawn. He hated it when people drew his blood and he hated it when people stabbed him with needles.
The researchers in the institution were all carefully trained and could not die easily, so they found the new students to draw Sean''s blood. These people were all sacrifices.
However, even if they were sacrificial victims, not too many of them could die, or it would easily cause panic and chaos.
Peter did not wish to be Sean''s next victim.
He immediately changed the topic and said,"you should restrain yourself in the future!" We''ve spent a lot of money and energy to help you smooth out those cases. The two students you killed today are not ordinary people, and the organization will be involved in the dispute because of this!"
"That''s good! Roll, roll with all your might! I''d be happy if you all died!"
"If we all die, you won''t live either! Don''t forget, the virus in your body breaks out every two years, and this year''s outbreak ising soon. You''d better be obedient, or you''ll die soon!"
Jing Zhi shrugged his shoulders and raised his eyebrows."Up to you, I''ve lived long enough! If you didn''t force me to live, I wouldn''t be willing to live until now! If I die, I won''t have to listen to your orders anymore!"
Peter''s face stiffened. It was rendered speechless by Jing Zhi''s words.
Jing Zhi had tried tomit suicide many times because he had been imprisoned for a long time. Large doses of drugs had not only caused him to lose his memory, but also caused him to suffer from serious depression. He often had all kinds of hallucinations and gave up on himself. He had been on the verge of death.
Fortunately, their Virus Research team was made up of elites from all over the world. After a sleepless rescue, he survived.
After he woke up, the organization didn''t dare to imprison him anymore. Instead, they gave him a lot of freedom, so he slowly got out of depression.
However, even though he had lost his memory, he still had an instinctive hatred and hatred for the entire Research Institute. Before he had officially joined the assassin organization, he had already killed many elite virus researchers with his extraordinary strength and speed.
Peter knew that Jing Zhi was someone who did not care about threats. He was cold-hearted and did not even care about his own life, let alone others.
He took a deep breath and changed to a friendly tone,""We''re in a cooperative rtionship now. As long as you cooperate well, the organization will definitely give you freedom in the future and you''ll have endless money to spend. "Right now, the virus Research is at a critical stage. In less than two years, there will definitely be a breakthrough. You just need to persist for another two years."
Jing Zhi touched his chin unconsciously and smiled sarcastically."Yes, you lied to me the same way two years ago! It''s a pity that I fell for it when I was young. If I fall for it again, I''ll be no different from an idiot like you!"
"No matter what, you have to get a blood sample today. The blood samples from the Research Institute have been used up, and the research can not be interrupted. You''d better be obedient, or you''ll be the one suffering in the end."
Jing Zhi smiled darkly,"Oh, threatening me?" Hahaha, you might not know, right? The assassin Battalion is even more perverted than you, they don''t even treat me as a human! I''ve tasted all of them. It was so good that I''ve been having nightmares for half a month! I really have to thank them for this. Otherwise, I might not have been able to withstand your torture!"
In fact, Peter knew about the brutal methods of the assassin camp. Jing Zhi was the sessor that they were focusing on training, so they would definitely do anything to him to create an invincible assassin in the world.
Every time he saw Jing Zhi''s sharp eyes, he felt that the two organizations were trying to make a stronger enemy for themselves.
Chapter 906
Chapter 906: Big brother, where are you?
Trantor: 549690339
The Virus Research Institute had been constantly strengthening his body in the past few years, trying to use his body to cultivate higher-grade viruses.
The assassin Battalion had been improving his killing skills. Now, when Jing Zhi went all out, he was almost invincible.
Jing Zhi had put too much pressure on Peter. Peter had originally wanted toe and reprimand Jing Zhi, but quickly changed his mind.
When Jing Zhi went crazy, anyone would try to kill him. Peter did not want to be a ghost under his gun, so it gave up on the idea of letting him go back to school to draw his blood. It turned around and got into the truck to find someone else to deal with Jing Zhi.
When Jing Zhi saw that Peter had backed off halfway through its confrontation with him, he couldnt help but frown.
Everyone in the Virus Research Institute was abnormal. They were all paranoid and fanatical, and their love for viruses surpassed everything else.
Since Peter was one of the leaders of the Research Institute, there was no way it would let it off so easily.
Jing Zhi turned around and got into the car. He turned the temperature of the air conditioner to the maximum and continued on the road.
Peter was right. There were only a few days left before the outbreak of the virus this year. His body temperature was getting lower and lower, and the pain in his bones was getting worse and worse. It was already impossible for him to sleep at night.
However, he didnt want to lower his head to the Virus Research Institute.
He would rather endure the pain than let them draw his blood and then inject him with all kinds of chemicals or even other kinds of viruses.
He was their test subject.
It was a vessel for them to cultivate the virus.
It was because the virus in his body could hardly survive in other peoples bodies. Once it was introduced into other peoples bodies, most people would die within three days. Only a few people could survive afterplicated and expensive treatment, but those who survived would be disabled.
For some reason, Jing Zhi felt that there was someone who had sessfully absorbed the virus in his body and had gained some of his superpowers.
Who was this person?
He raised his left hand and looked at the lines on his palm in silence.
On his palm, there were two light blue words tattooed: brother Yingying.
He had used blue ink and an IV needle to inject the needle bit by bit every day ever since he realized that his memory had gradually disappeared.
Day after day, he persevered and never gave up even when there was excruciating pain!
His body had a strong recovery ability, and all scars could be healed quickly. However, the blue ink seeped into his skin, and after a long time, the two words were clearly engraved in his palm.
His memories slowly disappeared. He could not remember who his brother was. He forgot his face, his voice, and everything about him.
However, he remembered that she was an extremely important person in his life!
He didnt dare to forget, he couldnt bear to forget!
Every time he saw these two words, he would always feel a warm feeling in his heart. This was the only sunlight in his dark and painful purgatory life.
He muttered,big brother, where are you? I dont remember you, what should I do?
His expression was nk and helpless,pletely unlike the top killer who could take peoples lives without mercy, but like a child who couldnt find his way home at night.
As the sun set, thest ray of sunlight disappeared from the world, and darkness began to envelop the entirend.
Jing Zhi drove the car and stopped by a beach.
He slowly got out of the car and stepped on the soft beach. A sense of deja vu struck him.
However, this feeling disappeared too quickly, so quickly that he couldnt grasp it in time.
For the past six years, he had often felt this sense of deja vu. Every time he tried to catch it, he always got nothing.
He walked on the beach in a daze until he reached the sea.
The sea water soaked his shoes, socks, and expensive white trousers, but he still didnt feel it.
The stars in the sky scattered their light on the boundless sea. The sea breeze blew in their ears, and they sang in a lonely voice.
It was as if he was the only one left in the world.
He used his palm to gently scoop up some seawater.
Suddenly, a blurry image jumped into his mind!
A long time ago, on a night like this and on a beach like this, a little boy was washing the hands of another little boy.
The scene shed by.
But Jing Zhi was sure that this was his memory.
A childhood memory!
He raised his left hand again and looked at the two light blue words in his palm. He murmured softly,Big brother, is that you?
It waste at night. The wind was cold and the water was icy on the winter Beach.
But Jing Zhi didnt want to leave these waters. This was the first time he had recalled the past since he lost his memory. Even if it was blurry and fragmented, it was enough to make him feel happy and warm.
He was very happy.
In the past six months, he had been resisting the use of medicine, and his memory had finally shown signs of recovery!
Deep underground in the base, Jing Rui had a simple meal and was about to take on a new mission.
He had the same virus as Jing Zhi, so he ate a lot as well. He didnt eat as much as Jing Zhi, but he ate three times more than an ordinary person.
The six years of tough training as a killer had changed his habit of being picky with food. As long as it could provide the most basic energy requirements for his body, he would eat it without hesitation, even if it was raw beef or snake meat.
It would be too embarrassing if he died of exhaustion from high-intensity training due to ack of energy.
He couldnt die Here, because he hadnt brought Jing Zhi home yet.
The research and development team of the assassin organization had developed a new chip, which was imnted into the skin behind each Assassins ear, mainly for positioning and physical health monitoring.
He couldnt act rashly before his men had hacked into the chips program. He couldnt take Jing Zhi out of North America with him. No one could escape North America except for a mission. All the escapees would be killed by the assassin Battalions self-destruction device.
ording to Jing Ruis style, he would not run away.
There was no such word in his dictionary.
He was here to take Jing Zhi home and take over the killer organization, not to be a fugitive.
However, his current level was still rtively low, and he had note into contact with the core things of the assassin organization, so he was still in hiding.
He had epted the mission and was about to set off, but he received the medical report from the assassin camp.
In the assassin camp, such a physical examination was carried out once a year, asionally twice.
They had already done one at the beginning of the year, and another one at the end of the year.
Could it be that he had discovered something unusual?
Jing Rui had some doubts.
The core information of his medical examination was fake.
Chapter 907: Seriously injured
Chapter 907: Seriously injured
The physical examination of the assassin camp was aprehensive test of the assassin. Height, weight, and cardiopulmonary function were the most basic. There were other important tests, including a true face record, blood collection, DNA test, and so on.
Since Jing Rui hade to the assassin camp, he had made all the necessary preparations.
Although his face was indeed his own, it was the face that had been slightly altered after the injection.
The blood sample collected by the other party would be reced by his own people halfway through. He had nted dozens of people in the Kongtong killer organization for the past six years, and almost every department had his people. This year, because he had been exposed to higher levels, he had even more people nted in the organization.
Otherwise, if people found out that he had the same virus as Jing Zhi and that they were rted by blood, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He left his private suite and entered the examination room. Jing Rui soon found out why he had gone through two physical examinations this year.
The physical examination was for Jing Zhi.
Jing Rui''s men were also in the Virus Research Institute. Over the past six years, he had been infiltrating the two organizations with the support of his family.
After sacrificing countless people, he now had some subordinates in the Virus Research Institute.
Jing Rui knew that the Virus Research Institute would draw Jing Zhi''s blood for research every month. Because it was mainly used for human experiments, Jing Zhi''s blood would be used up after the injection, so they had to draw blood from him continuously.
In order to prevent the secret from being leaked, and to prevent the killers frommunicating with the outside world at any time, the killer base had built this ce into an isted city that blocked all electronic signals.
So Jing Rui did not know that Jing Zhi had failed to draw blood today.
When he saw the person in charge of the physical examination looking for mo Mei, he immediately guessed that they had organized the physical examination to extract Jing Zhi''s blood.
Jing Rui''s eyes were cold.
No matter how strong Jing Zhi''s body was, he wouldn''t be able to withstand the monthly blood transfusion.
This was undoubtedly overdrawing his life!
Jing Rui was thinking about this when Jing Zhi came in, drenched.
His face was pale, and his lips were bloodless. His expression was slightly twisted, as if he was enduring some great pain.
The killers in the physical examination room all looked at Jing Zhi. No one cared about his embarrassment orughed at his pale face. They all made way for him subconsciously.
The strong would be respected no matter where they were.
Jing Zhi had always performed outstandingly in training. Even though he was ranked second on the new assassin ranking, it didn''t stop everyone from acknowledging his strength.
In the world of assassins, there was no such thing as luck. All achievements were obtained through blood, sweat, and tears, and real strength.
Everyone thought that Jing Zhi had gone on a mission, but no one knew that the chip imnted in his body by the killer organization was acting up.
The killers in the killer Camp were usually only allowed to imnt one chip. If there were more, the human body would not be able to withstand it.
But Jing Zhi''s body was special, and the Virus Research Institute found that he could have two chips imnted in his body.
Therefore, the assassin Battalion specially designed another control-type chip for him, which was imnted behind his ear with the explosive chip.
"Mo Mei, where have you been? I''ve informed you so many times, why did you onlye back now! Do you think you''re so great just because you got second ce?"
Lance, who was in charge of the physical examination, asked sternly.
Lance had only arrived at the killer basest year. He had a strong backer in the killer organization, so his attitude was particrly rude.
He did not know the specific situation of "mo Mei." At his level, he was not qualified to know the top secrets of the assassin organization.
He only knew that mo Mei was bloodthirsty, but everyone here was an assassin. Which one of them didn ''t? If they were soft-hearted, they would immediately be corpses the next day.
The rules of the assassin camp were strict, and Lance felt that his personal safety was guaranteed, so he was not afraid.
Jing Zhi was still suffering from the chip''s torture, but he didn''t say anything. He stepped forward and kicked Lance away.
With a loud bang, Lance''s back hit a table. The wooden table was broken into two. Jing Zhi''s kick had been very powerful.
Lance was kicked more than ten meters away. His back broke the table and his spine was severely injured.
Hey on the ground, screaming in pain.
Jing Zhi walked up to him slowly and looked down at him with a cruel smile. "I''m ranked second. What does that have to do with you? I''ll let you see how amazing I am today!"
"If you dare to kill me, you won''t be able to live either!"
Lance shrieked.
He still couldn''t believe that he had been beaten by mo Mei!
He clenched the mini Remote control in his hand tightly, then madly increased the control frequency.
"Ah!" Jing Zhi screamed and fell to the ground, holding his head.
Blood quickly oozed out of his ears and nose. All the blood vessels in his body began to burst, and his white suit was quickly dyed red! Hey on the ground in pain, his entire body twitching and convulsing as if he had been electrocuted by high voltage.
In just a few dozen seconds, he passed out, but even so, his body was still trembling from the intense pain.
Jing Rui, who was standing a dozen meters away, saw Jing Zhi''s situation clearly.
His eyes immediately turned red!
Six years of being an assassin had long forged him into a cold and indifferent person. His heart was harder than stone, and he had no feelings.
But at this moment, his heart was bleeding!
Had Jing Zhi been tortured like this for the past six years?
Just you wait, you''ll all die in the future!
Jing Zhi was only ten years old when he was taken away. Was this how they treated him when he disobeyed them?
Jing Rui couldn''t help but take a step forward. He wanted to take Jing Zhi away right now! He wanted to blow up the entire assassin base!
At this moment, a sharp rm sounded throughout the entire assassin base.
Just as all the assassins were on guard, five or six doctors barged into the physical examination room. Then, the General Manager of the assassin base and four high-level managers also rushed in quickly.
They didn''t look at anyone and ran straight to Jing Zhi. Only their leader shouted in a trembling voice,""Everyone, get out, immediately! This is the highest level of alert!"
Chapter 908
Chapter 908: A nightmare
Trantor: 549690339
In the assassin base, the chief person-in-charge rarely showed up. His words were the highest imperial edict in the base, and the assassins quickly retreated after hearing his words.
Jing Rui took a look at Jing Zhi, who was lying in a pool of blood, and left with gritted teeth.
At this moment, saving Jing Zhi was the most important thing. There was no benefit for him to stay here, and he might even lose both their lives.
He clenched his fists and walked out of the physical examination room with a cold expression. He packed up his equipment and went out to carry out his mission.
The physical examination couldnt be carried out. Jing Zhi was so badly injured that he would be transferred to the Virus Research Institute immediately for emergency treatment. The doctors in the base didnt have enough experience and ability to save him. Only the top scientists who specialized in the virus knew his physical condition.
The mission was not Jing Ruis main purpose. He could only get in touch with his men after he left the base. He and Jing Zhi had to stay in the killer organization for now. His safety was guaranteed, but he had to make sure that Jing Zhis safety was guaranteed.
In the drowsy dream, a little girl and another little girl tied a little boy with rope and sent him to a fierce-looking middle-aged man.
After that, the little boy was tortured. He was whipped every day and bled every day.
Until one day, the little boy couldnt bear the beating and scolding, and became a cold corpse.
Zheng yuluo suddenly woke up from her nightmare. When she realized that she was dreaming, the pain in her heart slowly dissipated.
Her face was a little cold. She raised her hand and touched it, and it was actually full of tears.
Sister, youre awake?
A voice that was exactly the same as hers rang in her ear. Then, Zheng yuluo saw a face that was exactly the same as hers.
Wei Wei?
Her voice was extremely hoarse, and her clear and beautiful eyes were full of shock. She could hardly believe what she was seeing.
Its me, sister, Im Wei Wei! Youre finally awake, you scared me to death!
As Zheng Yuwei spoke, she held Zheng yuluos hand tightly and started crying.
The two of them were twin sisters, and they really had that kind of wonderful telepathy between them. When her sister was lying on the bed, whether she was alive or dead, she felt empty. Now that her sister was awake, the heavy stone in her heart finally disappeared.
Zheng yuluo reached out and gently stroked her sisters head,forting her.Wei Wei, dont cry. Im fine. Its just that my body hurts a little. It hurts even more when you cry.
Zheng Yuwei tried her best to hold back her tears. She loved her sister so much, how could she bear to let her suffer more?
I Wont Cry Anymore, sister, dont hurt, Im so scared! Im so scared that you dont want me anymore!
When she came to the hospital and saw her sisters pale face, she almost fainted from shock! She was extremely afraid and had been guarding her sister closely, afraid that her sister would disappear in the blink of an eye.
Zheng yuluo looked at her sisters eyes that were swollen from crying and knew that she must have cried for a long time while she was unconscious. She said softly,No, Wei Wei, Ill live on. I wont die.
Her voice was soft, but her tone was firm and persistent.
Zheng Yuwei immediately understood what her sister meant. She was saying that she wouldnt die before Jing Zhi was found.
Her heart ached as if it was being cut by a knife!
Sister ...
Zheng Yuweis voice was a little choked, and her eyes were red as she advised,What happened back then wasnt your fault. Mom and dad have already said that even if we didnt tie him up and give him to that person, that person would have thought of other ways to take him away. However, it might not be that fast. Even if theres a mistake, its not just your fault. Im also at fault, sister!
She didnt even dare to mention the name Jing Zhi because she was afraid that her sister would fall into extreme pain again if she did.
Ever since Jing Zhi had gone missing, her sister had been having nightmares every night. She would wake up with tears all over her face.
The long term insomnia and nightmares had been tormenting her. The two sisters used to have the same figure, but now her sister was a whole circle thinner than her. They used to be the same height, but now she was two centimeters taller than her.
His sisters psychiatrist said that her sisters growth was affected because she was under too much mental pressure and overthought things.
The doctor said that his sister was only fifteen years old. If she took good care of herself, opened up her heart, and strengthened her nutrition and exercise, she would be able to catch up to her sister by the time she was twenty.
Therefore, as long as Zheng Yuwei had the chance, she would constantlyfort her sister, hoping that she could walk out of the shadow of the past.
Zheng yuluo knew that her sister was trying tofort her, but she could not lie to her.
She shook her head gently.No, that was indeed my fault. You only listened to me and helped the Tiger back then. It had nothing to do with you.
Her younger sister had always listened to her since she was young. If she said East, her younger sister would never go west. It was her idea to punish Jing Zhi, and it had nothing to do with her sister.
She was the one who pushed Jing Zhi over the cliff. She had to bear the consequences of her mistake.
Zheng yuluo did not want to continue discussing this matter. She asked softly,Wei Wei, what are you doing here? Arent you in Europe? Your Military Academy is so strict, how can they let you out so easily?
Zheng Yuwei sniffled and said with some lingering fear,I dont know how your Academy found my contact information, but they said that you ... Were injured. I immediately hired a helicopter and flew over. Fortunately, they found me, otherwise ...
Otherwise, she wouldnt have known that her sister had been beaten up to this state. The doctor said that her sisters heart had stopped beating several times. After many resuscitation attempts, she was finally saved with great difficulty.
Weiwei, Im fine now. Hurry back to school!
Zheng yuluo immediately chased her sister away.
His sister entered the same military school as his father, the Royal Military College of the United Kingdom the management was very strict, and it was very difficult to take leave. If one took too many leaves, they would be expelled immediately.
His sister had just entered the school this summer. If she took leave after just half a year of school, it would definitely affect the teachers impression of her.
How can we do that!
Zheng Yuwei disagreed.I dont want to go. I want to stay here to apany you and take care of you. Im worried about you being here alone!
Her sister was seriously injured. Her calf was fractured, three of her ribs were broken, and her internal organs were also damaged to varying degrees. She would need to rest in bed for at least a month! If there was no one to take care of her, how was she going to get through this alone?
Also, sister, you have to tell me which bastard hurt you! Im going to take revenge for you!
Chapter 909: A malefic star (1)
Chapter 909: A malefic star (1)
Zheng yuluo was shocked and cried out,""Weiwei, you can''t do that!"
Even if his sister had gone to military school for half a year and learned some fighting skills and abilities, she was still far from being Sean''s match!
"Why can''t I?"
Zheng Yuwei had never seen Sean before, but she was very confident in herself. She had begged her father to send her to a military school so that she could learn real skills to protect her sister in the future.
"Sister, I''m not the same as before. I''m no longer the little girl who only knows how to hide behind you! Don''t worry, I won''t act rashly, and I won''t have a direct conflict with him. I''ll kill him in secret!"
She had already asked some of her sister''s ssmates and found out that Sean was a homicidal maniac. Everyone who drew blood for him would die in his hands.
But she wasn''t afraid at all. Even if she was injured, she would seek justice for her sister!
To think that his life would be in danger while he was in school. How could he let a student draw blood for such a dangerous lunatic?
This life Research college was not a good school. When her sister recovered, she would take her sister away from this ce.
Zheng yuluo heard that her sister dared to kill someone. Most importantly, she was going to kill Sean!
She was so scared that her soul almost left her body, and her already pale face became even paler!
She tugged at her sister''s sleeve in a panic.""You, you, you ... You must listen to me. If you dare to seek revenge from him, I ... I will never acknowledge you as my sister again!"
There''s always someone better, and there''s always a mountain higher than the mountain. My sister is just a young girl who has juste out of her retirement, how could she be Sean''s opponent!
His fierce reputation had already caused people to tremble in fear a few years ago!
Zheng Yuwei''s heart was in pain. With red eyes and tears, she said,""Sister ... Don''t say such things, I''ll always be your sister! How can I just watch you suffer such a great grievance?"
Ever since Jing Zhi went missing six years ago, her sister Zheng yuluo''s personality had changed drastically. She used to be lively, cheerful, and pampered, but she had be a quiet and uninterested person.
She didn''t even smile for 365 days a year. She lived in a world of ck and white, and no other color could be seen in her eyes.
Her sister was already living a hard life, how could she let others bully her?
The two of them owed Jing Zhi, but they didn''t owe anyone else.
"No, Wei Wei, you must promise me that you will never seek revenge from that person! You''re no match for him. He''s a demon, and thousands of people have died at his hands! He has a strong background and has not been punished for killing people. I don''t allow you to take the risk! You have to swear an oath!"
Zheng Yuwei saw that her sister was really anxious and quickly said,""Okay, okay, okay. Don''t be angry, sister. I swear, okay? I won''t take revenge on that person. Don''t move and be careful of your wounds. "
Zheng yuluo was still worried. She knew her sister''s character well, and she was afraid that her sister would not know the severity of the situation and go to Sean for revenge. She immediately said,""Swear on my life that if you seek revenge from Sean, I won''t live to see tomorrow!"
Zheng Yuwei was stunned.
She was just lying to her sister. She was definitely going to take revenge on Sean. How could she make such a vow?
"Sister, how can I swear on your life? don''t worry, I''ll listen to you. I won''t go anywhere and will stay with you in the hospital, okay?"
"Really?"
"It''s true! Since I can''t beat him, I won''t go and die. When I be more powerful, I''ll go find him. Besides, even if I wanted to find him now, I wouldn''t be able to, so how can I even talk about revenge?"
Zheng yuluo thought about it carefully. What her sister said did make sense. Sean had always been elusive. Unless he appeared on his own, no one would be able to find him.
Sean''s next trip to school would be at least a monthter. By then, his sister would have left the ce and returned to Europe to continue her studies.
She was seriously injured by Sean. Of course, Zheng yuluo was angry herself. However, she knew that there was a huge gap between her strength and his, and the hope of revenge was slim. She didn''t want to take revenge on Sean at all. She just wanted to get as far away from this demon as possible so that she wouldn''t have to suffer any more unnecessary disasters.
"That''s good. As long as you don''t look for him, I''ll be very happy. This way, my injuries will heal faster. Wei Wei, you''re not allowed to lie to me. "
"I won ''t. Sister, you have to believe me!"
Zheng Yuwei made a solemn vow, but in fact, she had never given up on the idea of revenge.
She took a closer look at her sister''s long hair and was prepared to buy a wig of the same length in a few days.
She and her sister were twins. Their looks, temperament, and voice were almost exactly the same. Although they were two centimeters apart in height and a few pounds apart in weight, it was difficult for ordinary people to notice the slight difference.
Now, the only difference between her and her sister was that her sister had long hair, while she had short hair.
Because the military school didn''t allow long hair, she had cut off her beloved long hair after entering the school. In order to deceive others, she had to buy a wig.
Within a week, bad news came out of the killer organization.
First, Lance, who was in charge of all the assassins ''physical examinations and health conditions, died mysteriously on the night that "mo Mei" was injured. Then, the few doctors, nurses, and base managers who had been in close contact with "mo Mei" that day also died one after another.
In just seven days, 21 people had died ording to the killers ''knowledge.
This was a very rare thing in the base, because the people in the base had all gone through strict selection and training. Whether it was the killers or the managers, they were all experienced. At this level, there would basically not be a phenomenon of arge number of deaths.
The only one who was still alive was the person in charge of the base.
Because of the chief person''s high position and authority, all the treatment resources were concentrated on him, so he was able to survive for seven days.
Jing Zhi was lying in the ward of the Virus Research Institute, browsing thetest information about the killer organization on his phone with a pale face.
The high-intensity maic vibration from the A. I. Chip had caused arge number of red blood cells in his body to rupture and kill many viruses. It caused his body tock oxygen and lose too much blood in a short period of time, causing him to faint and go into shock.
Fortunately, he had a strong recovery ability that was not human. In addition, the entire Research Institute had poured all the doctors and drugs into him to save his life, so he woke up on the fourth day after fainting.
He quickly discovered that his body temperature had recovered a little due to therge number of deaths of the virus.
Chapter 910: A malefic star (2)
Chapter 910: A malefic star (2)
The disaster this time had been pushed back after unintentionally helping him solve a hidden problem in the short term, the outbreak of the cricket virus.
Moreover, due to the severe side effects of the chip on his body, the outbreak had caused him to lose too much blood. The Research Institute would not be able to draw blood from his body for at least three months.
One reason was that he really couldn''t draw blood in his current physical condition. The other reason was that most of the viruses had been killed by the harmful waves released by the chip, so he wouldn''t get enough viruses even if he drew blood.
In order to prevent him from being hurt by the chip again, the Research Institute had taken the chip out of his body.
Jing Zhi was very satisfied with the result. The terrible feeling of almost dying was lifted a little.
That broken chip was buried behind his ear. It was a time bomb!
Not only did it cause unbearable pain to his left ear, but it also seriously affected his hearing!
In the past, as long as he wanted to, he could even hear the sound of other people''s heartbeats clearly. But now, not to mention the heartbeat, he couldn''t even hear people scolding him next door. His hearing ability was now almost the same as an ordinary person ''s.
Jing Zhi didn''t care about his own life. He didn''t care if he was Dead or Alive. He would suffer if he was alive. He lived under strict surveince every day. His movements were restricted and he had no freedom.
However, he felt that if he had to die, then the entire Research Institute could forget about living!
Good. Lance had set the chip to the maximum frequency, which caused his blood vessels to burst and he lost a lot of blood. Many people were stained with his blood.
What were the consequences of being stained with his blood?
It was death!
More than a hundred people from the two major organizations had died this time!
Some people were infected by the virus because they touched his blood, but some people died because they touched the blood of the infected people.
The chain effect was very strong, which made Jing Zhi happy.
Lovely viruses, let''s all erupt! Poison them to death!
Jing Zhi put away his phone and walked out of the room in his hospital gown and disposable slippers.
However, there was one thing he did not understand. Who killed Lance?
He was sure that even though Lance had been kicked, it was not a fatal blow. With the medical facilities of the killer organization, he would definitely recover as long as he was treated well.
Even if Lance had been infected by his blood and was infected with the virus, he would not have died that night.
If the number of the virus was small, it would take at least two days and two nights to devour the healthy cells of an adult.
It couldn''t have been an assassination organization or a Research Institute, either, because they were all furious when they learned that Lance was dead. The main culprit had almost killed the experimental subjects that the two major organizations had desperately protected. So many people had died because of him. It was not the style of these paranoid people to not torture him.
Even Lance''s powerful backer was in trouble. He was the one who gave the chip remote control to Lance.
Who was it that killed Lance?
Who was taking revenge for him?
For the past two or three years, Jing Zhi had always had a vague feeling that someone was protecting him.
However, this feeling was too faint. Every time, he thought that it was an illusion.
Because every time he escaped danger, it was extremely dangerous. Every time he escaped, he would feel that he was too lucky.
If there was really someone protecting him, that person was too powerful!
To be able to do things so discreetly, something that seemed to happen by chance with a small probability, he had to be strong enough topete with two perverted and powerful organizations!
Could there be such a person in this world?
Jing Zhi didn''t think it was possible.
No one knew better than him how unshakeable the two major organizations were.
The assassin organization had existed for hundreds of years, and the ie of the assassin profession was extremely high. A single order was millions or tens of millions. With so many assassins taking on missions for 365 days, the money they earned was already enough to make a country rich.
The assassin organization now had connections all over the world. They even cooperated with the governments of many countries. When the government found it inconvenient to take action, they would throw out arge sum of money and let the assassins solve the problem.
With such a weakness in the hands of the killer organization, the government had to provide some powerful help, such as the high-end weapons of the Christian Church.
As for the virus Research Agency, although they weren''t as rich as the killer organizations, they were still an absolutely powerful force. This was because they had a vicious virus that could destroy all of humanity and the entire.
Most importantly, this so-called Virus Research Institute was backed by a few of the most developed countries in the world.
No one was willing to die. Everyone wanted to stay young and live a healthy life for a long time.
Especially the rich and those in high positions. If they died, their money and power would all be someone else ''s. Only by living could they not waste the first half of their hard work.
If he wanted topete with the killer organizations and the Research Institute at the same time without strength, it would be like hitting a stone with an egg.
Jing Zhi had been trying to run away from this hellish ce all these years. He wanted to escape from this cage of experiments, but he had never seeded.
His body''s functions had already exceeded the scope of a human ''s, and it was not wrong to describe him as an alien. However, even so, he could not escape the tyrannical pursuit of the assassin organization.
Killing was the specialty of an assassin organization!
Was there anyone who could do anything under the eyes of the two major organizations?
Jing Zhi was very suspicious.
But if he didn ''t, how could his intuition be wrong again and again?
Just like this time, Lance''s death was inexplicable. Everyone thought that Lance had been kicked to death, but only he knew that he had been in a terrible state at the time. The strength of his kick was different from his usual strength. Lance should not have died so quickly.
Jing Zhi felt as if there was ayer of fog in front of him, blocking his vision. He couldn''t see the truth, and even began to doubt himself.
It didn''t make sense. He knew many people in these two organizations, but none of them seemed like they would help him!
You''ll lose your head if you help me with this!
To risk their lives to help, how close must their rtionship be? what kind of feelings must that be!
Could they be his parents?
Jing Zhi couldn''t think of anyone else other than his biological parents who would do this.
However, weren''t his parents already dead?
For so many years, everyone in the Virus Research Institute had said this, and he had subconsciously thought so as well.
Even if they didn''t die, they probably didn''t have the ability to extend their hands into these two major organizations.
As Jing Zhi walked out slowly, a word suddenly came to his mind.
He opened his palm and stared at the two words on it.
Big brother, is it you?

Back then, why didn''t he tattoo the words ''father'' or ''mother'' on his palm, but ''brother'' instead?
Even though he had lost his memory, he was still convinced that he had a brother.
He had no impression of his parents at all.
Everyone else said that his parents were dead, but no one had ever said that his brother was dead. This meant that his brother must be alive.
The chip was removed from the back of Jing Zhi''s ear. He felt his mind clear up.
He felt that he had overlooked an important question all this time. Perhaps, there really were people in these tworge organizations who were protecting him?
What if those coincidences in the past were not his illusion, and someone really helped him?
Jing Zhi suddenly felt a sense of happiness, as if he had been warmed by the sun.
This was the first time in six years that he had truly felt happiness. The happiness of being protected and loved.
He was not a test subject, he was not a monster, he was just a child who had forgotten his past.
He lowered his head to look at the two light blue words on his palm, and a bright smile bloomed on his lips.
It was so good to have an older brother. He felt that the wounds on his body did not seem to hurt anymore!
Jing Zhi clenched his fists and strode out.
Seeing that he was about to leave, the doctors in the Research Institute stopped him.
"Sean, you can''t leave! You haven''t recovered yet!"
"Sean, go back and lie down. Today''s injection is not finished yet!"
"Sean, you can bleed from any part of your body. You can''te into contact with anyone else, or it will cause arge number of deaths. You have been ordered to be imprisoned! You won''t be able to get out!"
The noise made Jing Zhi feel irritated. He had been in a good mood, but when he saw these people who had been experimenting on him like a mouse, his mood was ruined.
In order to prevent being infected by him, the people in the Research Institute were all wearing masks, rubber gloves, and protective clothing. They were fully armed, only their eyes were exposed.
Jing Zhi gave them a harmless smile and then bit his finger.
All the researchers who hade to block the road were scared out of their wits when they saw him bleeding. They all retreated in panic.
He was a moving pathogen! The most dangerous kind!
The blood was dripping down, but Jing Zhi didn''t feel any heartache. Even if he didn''t waste it, the blood would be taken away anyway.
With every drop of blood that gushed out, he threw it at a person.
In the assassin camp, he had long been trained to have excellent uracy. In addition to his excellent vision, it was not difficult for him to throw the blood beads into people''s eyes.
In less than a minute or two, the underground Research room of the Research Institute was filled with wailing.
The piercing rm in the Research Institute immediately rang, and an angry voice echoed through the entire Research Institute through a loudspeaker,""Stop Sean! He''s not allowed to leave!"
More than a hundred armed bodyguards blocked Jing Zhi''s way. Each of them had a gun in their hands. If he moved one more step, they would open fire.
Of course, the gun was not loaded with bullets, but a strong anesthetic.
Jing Zhi was the most important and valuable Virus Research subject in the entire Research Institute, and he couldn''t be put in any danger.
Jing Zhi couldn''t help but sneer when he saw therge group of people blocking his way.
Did he think that the six years he spent in the assassin camp were all for nothing?
He suddenly increased his speed, easily avoiding the tranquilizer darts flying towards him, and barged into the group of bodyguards.
Jing Zhi kicked the bodyguards out one after another. It didn''t look like he was kicking people out, but more like he was throwing out a broken sack.
Screams rose and fell. In a short while, all the bodyguards were lying on the ground, and it was unknown whether they were alive or dead.
Jing Zhi kicked the door open and walked up the stairs.
The White patient''s garb he was wearing was stained with blood, some of which belonged to him, and others. The slippers were nowhere to be found. He stepped on the cold ground barefooted, leaving bloody footprints behind him.
In order to prevent him from escaping, the Virus Research Institute had not given him any food since he fainted. They only gave him an infusion every day to keep him alive.
He had not eaten for seven days in a row.
If his body wasn''t strong enough and the virus wasn''t able to devour cells to release energy, he would have starved to death.
The severe energy loss made Jing Zhi''s head feel heavy.
He had lost a lot of blood. In order to maintain the concentration of the virus in his blood, the Research Institute refused to give him a blood transfusion, so his face was extremely pale.
He had just fought against a hundred people alone and had been injected with a few tranquilizers. His body was seriously exhausted.
He started to hallucinate.
Jing Zhi knew it was an illusion.
He used all his strength and started to run.
He wanted to escape from this ce. This was hell on earth!
Why?
Why did he have a rare virus in his body? Why was he imprisoned here? Why didn''t anyone treat him as a human!
What had he done wrong to deserve such punishment and torture?
The anesthetic gradually took over Jing Zhi''s body. He ran faster in his hallucination, rushed out of the high walls of the Research Institute, ran across the central square like the wind, and rushed into the vast ocean, letting his body sink slowly.
For a moment, he saw many fragments of memories, but the fragments were too messy. He could not tell if they were illusions or precious memories he once had.
"Brother, I have chocte for you!"
"Big brother, when will I be taller than you?"
"Brother, can I sleep with you?"
In a daze, he saw a tall figure jump from the shore into the bone-chilling cold sea.
The figure was blurry, but it was getting closer and closer to him.
He reached out to him and supported his body, bringing him out of the sea and getting fresh air again.
Jing Zhi wanted to see his face and find out who had saved him. However, he was already exhausted, and the anesthetic dragged him into the endless darkness.
Jing Zhi woke up the next day.
He nced around and felt dejected.
No matter how he struggled, he couldn''t escape.
He leaned against the headboard and recalled everything that had happenedst night. He was not sure if anyone had saved him from the deep sea.
He often could not tell if it was an Illusion or Reality. He always felt that he was in a dreamst night, so unreal.
The room door opened and Peter walked in.
"The number of direct deaths yesterday was 72, and the number of infected people was 256!
Chapter 912: Whos helping him?
Chapter 912: Who''s helping him?
"Sean, if you continue to mess around like this, the Research Institute will take back all your freedom and you will be imprisoned here for the rest of your life!"
"Take back my freedom?"
Jing Zhi''s face was deathly pale, without a trace of blood, but his eyes were wild and his smile was full of sarcasm.
"What right do you have to take away my freedom? Life imprisonment? [Am I not imprisoned for life?] It''s not Christmas today, but April Fool ''s!"
Peter''s expression turned a little ugly.
Jing Zhi had a sharp tongue, and he couldn''t beat him in an argument.
Today was supposed to be a Grand Christmas Day, but so many people had died in the Research Institute. Who was in the mood to celebrate?
"The people you killed were all innocent. They all made outstanding contributions to the entire Research Institute! They shouldn''t have died so meaninglessly!!
It wasn''t easy for the Research Institute to cultivate a loyal and reliable elite * the virus Research here * to a certain extent, was ****. They needed the kind of crazy talents who didn''t recognize their family because many experiments had to be done on their own family.
In the past three years, many of the elites of the Research Institute had died at Jing Zhi''s hands. Of course, Peter was angry and heartbroken.
But she couldn''t do anything to Jing Zhi. She couldn''t let him die, but Jing Zhi didn''t care about the punishment. Even if he was beaten up, he would not repent, and the next time he killed someone, he would be even worse.
"Innocent? Hahaha ..."
Jing Zhiughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes.
"None of the people here are innocent! Why not? The viruses that you''ve been researching are enough to destroy all of humanity. You call that a contribution? Kill them, that''s what you call contribution!"
However, Peter did not think so. It felt that all of the staff here were doing it for the good of mankind. Once the virus was sessfully developed, everyone would be able to live forever! He wanted to be like Jing Zhi, to be strong, to have a long life, to be able to spend his youth and enjoy life without restraint.
"Sean, you can''t be so selfish. What''s the point of you being able to live forever alone? When your family and friends are all dead and you''re the only one left in this world, is there any meaning to it? Don''t you want them to live longer?"
Jing Zhi''s heart skipped a beat, but he didn''t show it on his face. He sneered. "Didn''t you say that my parents are dead? Do I have other rtives? As for friends ... If people like you can be considered my friends, then I might have a few hundred truckloads of friends!"
"Whether I''m your friend or not, you''ll find out in the future."
Peter said indifferently before instructing the doctor toe in and give Jing Zhi an IV.
"It''s better if you don''t try to escape. You''ve been taught so many lessons, why haven''t you learned? Don''t force me to increase the dosage, or you might be unconscious for a month or two, and then you won''t remember anything when you wake up. "
Jing Zhi wasn''t afraid of anything but losing his memory.
Without his memories, he had no way to distinguish who his enemies were, and he had no way to seek revenge on those who had tortured him, nor find his own birth.
Even though Jing Zhi hated everything that was happening here, at the moment, Peter could be considered one of the more normal people in the entire Research Institute.
The rest of the people were all paranoid. They were fanatical about the virus in his body. They wanted to skin him alive and study how his body could amodate the virus.
Jing Zhi didn''t want anyone else to take care of him. He had already formed a delicate bnce with Peter. Usually, as long as his requests weren''t too excessive, Peter would basically satisfy them.
In return, he would usually go along with Peter''s blood drawing and drug testing.
Jing Zhi leaned against the headboard and didn''t say a word. He let the doctors, who were both fearful and fanatical of him, inject him with the medicine.
He knew that there was no way he could escape. Even if it wasn''t Peter, there would be someone else who would forcefully inject it into him.
Jing Zhi was very familiar with all the drugs he was injected with.
However, after the injection today, he could clearly feel that something was different. He didn''t feel the bone-corroding pain and disgust like before. He only felt a slight difort.
Some of the medicine was used to weaken his muscle strength, so he would not have the strength to run out for a short time.
But now, he didn''t feel weak like his power had been drained.
What was going on?
Jing Zhi looked suspiciously at Peter, who was standing by the door, wearing a protective cap and a protective suit.
However, Peter was not even looking at him. It was impatiently chiding the doctors to move faster.
Could it be a new medicine?
After everyone had left, Jing Zhi went to look through the Englishbels on the IV bags.
That''s right, it''s the same as before!
Jing Zhi was confused. He had no idea what had gone wrong.
Peter did not seem like someone who would make such a mistake!
Could it be that someone had secretly changed his medicine?
Jing Zhi couldn''t help but think of the blurry figure he had seen at the bottom of the seast night.
Perhaps, it wasn''t his hallucination, and someone was really saving him!
Jing Zhi was sure that the person who had saved him wasn''t from the Research Institute. The people from the Research Institute didn''t dare touch him with their bare hands. They were afraid of getting infected, so they always wore rubber gloves.
Recently, the feeling that someone was helping him was getting stronger and stronger.
Jing Zhi suddenly smiled. He was in a good mood as hey on the bed and looked out subconsciously.
Only then did he realize that the room he was staying in today was not a basement, but above the ground, a room with Windows!
Jing Zhi rubbed his eyes hard. He suspected that he was hallucinating.
How was that possible?
Was the Research Institute crazy? Were they not afraid that he would break the window and escape through it?
Although he didn''t know which floor he was on, he knew that he could jump off the tallest building in the Research Institute safely.
His eyes were about to be crushed, but the window in front of him was still there.
Jing Zhi excitedly pulled out all the equipment attached to his body and the needles in his blood vessels. He ran to the window barefooted and looked at the snow outside greedily.
It was all white outside, and he couldn''t see anything, but Jing Zhi was very excited.
This year''s Christmas, he felt that it was quite happy!
It would be even better if there was food. He was very, very hungry.
Soon, Santa seemed to hear his voice and a doctor brought him a delicious roast turkey!
Jing Zhi tore off a piece of chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth. After swallowing it down, he mumbled to the doctor Who was pouring him water, "It''s not poisonous, right?"
Chapter 913: Boss, Cheng has arrived
Chapter 913: Boss, Cheng has arrived
The doctor in charge of Jing Zhi''s daily life was an Asian girl with ck hair and ck eyes. She was wearing a full set of protective masks and stic gloves, as if she was afraid of getting infected.
She handed the hot water to Jing Zhi and said in fluent English, "I''ve never seen a poison more powerful than the virus in your body. Eat it, it won''t kill you. "
She spoke in such a mature tone that Jing Zhi couldn''t help but doubt her age.
"How old are you?"
The girl lied without even blinking. "I''m almost forty. "
Jing Zhi didn''t believe her. He leaned forward and stared at her transparent mask. "You''re not forty, you''re fourteen, right?"
"Fourteen? I''m a veteran doctor in the Research Institute. Virus cultivation, bacterial reproduction, human stem cell transntation, what do I not know? If fourteen can learn this much, I''ll be the number one genius in the world!"
Jing Zhi still didn''t believe her.
Not to mention the doctor''s young face, just by listening to her voice, he knew that she was definitely not forty years old.
However, there was nothing else in the Research Institute except for all kinds of old monsters.
In order to prolong their lives and slow down aging, they had developed a variety of drugs that couldpletely maintain the appearance of their youth.
The doctor in charge of his diet might not be a teenager, but he was definitely not in his forties.
For a 40-year-old woman, no matter how much bottoxins, hyaluronic acid, and anti-aging drugs were used, the condition of her skin would not be the same as that of a teenage girl.
Jing Zhi didn''t really care how old the doctor was. He didn''t care.
In any case, it was possible that the doctor would be infected with the virus and die in a few days.
Jing Zhi felt a little strange when he thought about this.
The doctor in front of him seemed to have been in charge of his diet for more than a year. Why was he still alive?
The people who took care of him in close proximity were basically killed by him in a fit of rage. This young doctor didn''t die, wasn''t he too lucky?
Forget it, let''s not think about it. It''s not surprising that there are asionally people who have lived for a long time. Peter was still ying by his side. It had been a few years and had not died yet.
He ate the delicious and fragrant Turkey in big mouthfuls. He enjoyed the snow and filled his stomach. He drank a big mouthful of water and felt very satisfied.
This was the happiest Christmas he had had in six years!
Jing Zhi finished a big turkey with a silly smile on his face. He also ate two apples and two oranges.
He thought that the perverts in the Research Institute had found their conscience and let him enjoy the meal, but he did not know how much effort and manpower Jing Rui had put in to let him live in a room with Windows and eat these things.
After he was full, Jing Zhiy back on the bedzily and let the young doctor reconnect all the devices for him. He even reached out his left hand for her to put the needle in.
He was nibbling on an orange in his right hand. Looking at the doctor''s skillful injection, he couldn''t help but ask,""What''s your name? Have you always been taking care of me?"
The research projects in the Research Institute were all extremely dangerous, so most of the doctors worerge masks and white doctor Hats, only revealing their eyes.
It was extremely difficult to recognize someone with just eyes, so Jing Zhi couldn''t remember a person. He only remembered people by their voices.
He remembered the doctor''s voice, but he had never been able to see her face.
The girl was silent for a while. Just when Jing Zhi thought she wouldn''t answer, she said in Chinese,""I''m Shuyin. "
Jing Zhi was surprised,"shade?" What a strange name. "
He had identally spoken Chinese, and even he himself didn''t realize how natural he was when he said it.
"Comfort as infort, and The Sound of Music."
Shuyin exined calmly, as if she wasn''t surprised that Jing Zhi could speak Chinese.
She didn''t seem to have any intention of talking to Jing Zhi. She packed her things and pushed the dining cart out.
"Hey, don''t you have an English name?"
Shuyin stopped in her tracks."Cheryl," she said."You can call me if you need anything."
She pushed the dining cart away after she finished speaking, leaving Jing Zhi alone in deep thought."When did I learn Chinese?"
Jing Zhi chewed on the orange in distress. Halfway through, he suddenly felt a very familiar feeling.
He felt like someone had taught him how to eat an orange before.
It seemed like eating the skin together was not right?
Jing Zhi stared at the half-eaten orange in his hand. Where was the person who had peeled an orange for him?
He opened his left palm and saw two light blue words on it. Tears flowed down his face.
He cried and ate the orange, theny on the bed with thest orange in his arms, ready to sleep.
However, when he identally nced at it, he found that there were small Chinese characters carved on the bottom of the orange!
The writing was done with a sharp knife, so it wasn''t very obvious. However, if one looked closely, they could still see the Chinese characters:
Idiot, you didn''t skin it again, did you?
Jing Zhi''s sleepiness was gone instantly. He sat up on the bed and pulled the needle off for the second time. The instruments attached to his body ttered loudly.
Brother!
Jing Zhi was ecstatic!
He didn''t know why, but his intuition told him that the person who had engraved the words was his brother!
Her brother was actually right beside her!
Jing Zhi sat on the bed andughed silently.
It seemed that his vague memory was not wrong. He had an older brother, and his older brother was still alive!
Her brother knew that he was here. Was it her brother who had helped her every time she had escaped danger? Last night, was the person who had pulled him up from the bottom of the sea also her brother?
He was like a child, holding Cheng tightly in his arms, sobbing andughing.
Jing Rui, dressed in a ck killer''s uniform, knelt in front of a long and narrow ss window, looking at his target through the scope.
The curtains in the room were all drawn, and the darkness made the room seem even more somber.
He knelt there, motionless, like a statue.
After waiting for two hours and forty-seven minutes, the target finally appeared in a suitable position for shooting.
With a bang, the bullet went through the small hole in the ss of the room and quickly prated the floor-to-ceiling window of the opposite vi. It shot into the chest of a man and shattered his heart.
After the sessful attack, Jing Rui quickly put away his equipment and was ready to leave.
There was a soft "ding" sound from his wireless earphone. He took out his phone and unlocked it. Then, he saw a new message on it:
Boss, Cheng has arrived. He has a Happy Christmas and is crying now."
A smile appeared on Jing Rui''s cold face, which melted all the ice in the winter.
Chapter 914: Have I been exposed?
Chapter 914: Have I been exposed?
Jing Rui returned to the base for a short rest after the mission waspleted.
He had not slept for two days and two nights. On this lively Christmas Day, he had only eaten a pack ofpressed biscuits and drank a bottle of mineral water with ice shards.
He had very low requirements for his own diet now. As long as he didn''t starve to death, he could eat anything.
As long as Jing Zhineng was happy eating, he would feel at ease.
From the day Jing Zhi was born, he knew that he was the older brother and that he would be like his father in the future. He would take on all the responsibilities and make sure that his Lackey would suffer less.
He had known for a long time that Jing Zhi had lost his memory. Modern medicine was so advanced that it wasn''t difficult to erase a person''s memory.
However, generally speaking, it was impossible for a person with amnesia to have no memory of the past, and it was rare for them to change some of their past habits.
He wanted to slowly recall Jing Zhi''s memories, but he didn''t expect to see results today.
It was good that his little brother remembered him!
Jing Rui took a shower, ate something and then went to bed to rest.
After a short rest, he epted another mission and set off.
Thepetition in the assassin organization was very fierce. Not only were they ranked among the rookies, but they were also included in the global ranking of assassins from the moment they started.
Lu was still at the top of the assassin list. Jing Rui''s goal was not to surpass Lu, but to be famous.
Only in this way could he have enough prestige and be prepared to lead all the assassins in the future!
At twoo'' clock in the morning, Jing Rui set off again with his equipment.
Because he was ranked first among the neers, he had many privileges that ordinary assassins didn''t have. One of them was that he didn''t need to follow the rule of only taking one mission at a time. He could take on multiple missions at once.
This time, he had epted four missions, and the time limit was one week.
The four targets were quickly killed, but Jing Rui did not fire a single shot. Lu was the one who killed them all.
Six years ago, Lu had returned to the killer organization. She was of little value to the Virus Research Institute, but for the killer organization, she was the most powerful weapon.
Unlike the new killers, the old killers had their own residence and were not allowed to live in the killer base.
The killer organization was confident enough to make sure that Lu could not take her son Jing Zhi away on her own, so they weed her back.
Lu didn''t get to see Jing Zhi at all. Even if she did, Jing Zhi had lost his memory and couldn''t remember his mother at all. Lu couldn''t tell Jing Zhi apart from the man who was wearing a human-skinned mask.
Lu was free to do whatever she wanted, and no one was monitoring her, so she often helped Jing Rui with his tasks.
But Jing Rui had more important things to do than killing.
In an unremarkable office building, Jing Rui sat on the sofa and quickly read through the contract in his hand. He nodded at the middle-aged man opposite him."Deal," he said.
"Ray, I''ll leave my daughter in your care. As long as she''s safe and sound every month, I can help you recover your friend''s memory. However, it depends on how long he has lost his memory. I can''t guarantee that I''ll be able to recover all his memories, so I can only try my best. "
"What''s the sess rate?"
"It depends on his resistance to hypnosis. If he''s like you and hypnosis doesn''t work, the probability of sess is zero. If his resistance to hypnosis is rtively weak, there''s at least a 70% chance of sess. "
"If we seed, your daughter will be able to continue living. I will also pay her enough living expenses ording to the contents of this contract. If she fails, I guarantee that she won''t live past the age of eighteen. As for you, whether you seed or not, you will die. I can''t let a second person know my secret. "
"Ray, I''ve already said that I''m not 100% confident!" The middle-aged man said anxiously. My hypnotism doesn''t work on you. If the person you helped me recover my memory is immune to hypnosis, I won''t be able to seed! It doesn''t matter if I''m dead or Alive, but please don''t hurt my daughter. She''s innocent!"
Jing Rui put the contract into his ck bag, together with the guns and ammunition. He stood up and said coldly,""When you tried to hypnotize me and kill me, she was no longer innocent!"
"It''s wrong of me to want to kill you, but didn''t I fail? You''re still alive!" The middle-aged man''s face was filled with anxiety and panic. He tried his best to clear his name so that his daughter would not be implicated.
"It''s my ability that I''m alive! If I wasn''t strong enough, I would have been a corpse by now! I didn''t die, so I should forgive you? In your dreams!"
The man in front of him had tried to hypnotize him, but his father had taught him how to break it when he was ten years old. He had even undergone a hundred days of anti-hypnosis training.
"Yes, yes, yes, I deserve to die for that matter! But this has nothing to do with my daughter. She doesn''t know anything. Please let her go! I''ll take responsibility for my actions!"
"Then you better pray that your hypnotism works!"
Jing Rui picked up his equipment and left.
The middle-aged man was left alone in pain.
He hade into contact with Ray three times and knew how cold he was. If he said that he wanted his daughter to die, his daughter would not Live!
If he had known that Ray was such a difficult person to deal with, he would not have acted so rashly!
Half a year ago, someone had offered him arge sum of money and provided him with Ray''s location and picture to kill him.
He was nearly 50 years old and had used hypnosis to kill many people. He was already very skilled in it. He had thought that Ray was just an ordinary person, so he had epted the money and was ready to kill him.
However, his effective hypnotism did not work on Jing Rui at all!
In the end, not only did he fail to kill Jing Rui, but he was almost killed.
If he hadn''t told them about his ability to help people recover their memories, he might have died long ago.
He did not know who Ray was, but he knew that he was a man of extraordinary means. He had even managed to find out about Ray''s daughter!
Perhaps, even his daughter herself did not know that she still had a father living in this world!
He was really praying that his hypnotism skills were strong enough to help Ray''s friend regain her memory, or else his daughter would be in danger.
However, he was still a little confused about the identity of the person who had asked him to kill Ray half a year ago. Why didn''t his employere to find him again when he didn''tplete his killing mission?
Jing Rui was also confused about this.
Someone paid a high price of ten million to hire the world''s top hypnotist to kill him. Had he been exposed?
Chapter 915
Chapter 915: A self-directed opening show
Trantor: 549690339
He had joined the killer organization at the age of twelve and had been hiding his name and carefully hiding his true identity. By right, no one knew him, and he had never provoked anyone, so he should not have any enemies.
Jing Rui had been investigating this matter for half a year, but he had no clue.
He simply gave up and waited for the other party to send assassins to his door again.
The other party was very cautious. He didnt look for killers from a killer organization, but a killer who worked alone. This way, he wouldnt leave any clues, so it was difficult to track him.
However, since he was still alive, the other party would definitely not give up and would definitely make a move again.
Jing Rui returned to the base with the equipment. After a short rest, he took on another mission and set off.
His life was simple and boring, and the cycle repeated itself, but it made his character even colder and more determined.
Most of the tasks that he had taken on werepleted by himself. Sometimes, when he was too busy, Lu would take over the task.
His ranking on the assassin ranking list continued to rise. Half a yearter, he had already entered the top 100.
Jing Zhi and Zishan followed closely behind. Among the new killers, the three of them were in the lead.
Jing Rui had already started to pay attention to the female killer named Zishan and had gotten her detailed information.
There was a special reason why he and Jing Zhineng stood out from thousands of assassins and quickly surpassed those who had been assassins for more than ten years.
And how could a girl like Zishan climb so fast?
From her profile, she was only 17 years old and didnt seem to have anything special about her. Other than working harder than others, she was average in all other aspects.
That so-called internal information must be fake!
Zishan was definitely not that simple!
While Jing Rui was paying attention to Zishan, he was also paying attention to the changes on the list of killers.
In the past six months, the death rate of the Masters on the ranking list of killers had increased greatly. So far, 22 of them had died.
This was a terrifying number!
It was normal for so many low-level killers to die. They were inexperienced, average, bad at shooting, and slow at escaping. They could easily be killed by the targets protector.
However, it was shocking enough that so many top assassins had died. It should be known that every top assassin had to step on piles of bones to reach their current status. They had wandered on the edge of life and death countless times, and only after taking countless lives did they reach their current status.
Each and every one of them was the most valuable asset of the assassin organization. They were money trees after money trees!
After losing arge number of elites in the past six months, the leader of the assassin organization was furious!
However, there was nothing they could do. The employer had already paid them 25 million to kill the target, but the target was still alive. On the other hand, the 22 assassins who went to kill the target had all lost their lives!
This was no longer a problem of not being able toplete the order and not being able to report to the big client, but a problem of their assassin organizations face!
Killing one person cost 22 lives. Who would be at ease to hire them to kill people in the future? Who would be willing to pay a high price? So many assassins had died, they had lost all their face!
And this was the most severe loss the assassin organization had suffered since its establishment!
At this rate, in another half a year, most of the high-level assassins would be dead, and the assassin organization would be disbanded!
So many killers had died, and the top management of the killer organization was heartbroken. But Jing Rui was finally relieved.
The one who ced the order for the assassin organization was none other than him. He was the rich employer who had spent a lot of money.
And the target was himself, the heir of the Jing family, Jing Rui!
Of course, that was only in name.
He was now in the killer base, and the skin behind his ear was buried with a tracking chip specially made by the killer organization. As long as he ran out of a certain area, the control center of the killer organization would receive an rm.
Of course, he could not y two roles at the same time. Jing Rui, who had reced him in A city, was just his substitute.
In order to make it more realistic, the substitute not only had the same appearance as him, but even the temperament and expression were very simr.
In order not to be exposed, Jing Rui had kept the fact that he was a substitute a secret from everyone except his father, Jing Yichen.
However, Jing Tianyuan and Jing zhongxiu soon found out the truth. His mother, Shangguan ning, also found out the truth when the substitute came home for the first time.
It couldnt be helped. A mothers heart was connected to her child s. A mother had her own way of identifying the child she had carried for ten months and had given birth to with great difficulty. It was difficult to recognize the wrong person.
However, no one knew that Jing Rui had been reced, let alone that the real Jing Rui was lightning, the 76th killer in the world.
As for the one who had killed 22 senior killers in half a year, it was none other than Lu. Only she had the ability to kill someone without being discovered.
As the worlds best assassin, she did not have any chip imnted in her body. It was not because of the special treatment given to her by the assassin organization, but because they knew that it would be useless even if they put a chip in Lu. She was the kind of person who would rather die than listen.
The assassin organization would never be willing to lose such an assassin.
22 of the top 100 killers had died, and the people behind them were automatically reced. That was why Jing Ruis ranking had risen so quickly.
And now, the killer organization was sending someone to kill Jing Rui, and the person sent would be the tenth on the list.
A week ago, the one who had just been killed was in eleventh ce.
The internal affairs of the assassin organization were in turmoil, and there was a heavy atmosphere.
After the highest person in charge of the task assignment assigned the task to the tenth killer, in less than a minute, he actually received the rejection of the tenth killer!
The person-in-charges expression was a little ugly.
The 10th ce obviously knew how dangerous this mission was. He would rather disobey orders and receive severe punishment than ept the mission!
The person-in-charge started from the ninth ce and went all the way to the first ce, Angel. Without exception, he received nine reuse s!
The managers face was beyond ugly!
If the top ten all refused to ept the mission, how could he still arrange it!
He was so angry that he even dropped his favorite gun and scolded his men.
The subordinates knew what had happened recently, but they didnt know why their boss was so angry. They all guessed that another assassin had been killed.
Only his assistant knew why his boss was angry.
The Deputy thought for a while and finally walked up to the boss fearlessly. He suggested in a low voice,Boss, those people in front are already very smart, so they definitely wont be willing to take the risk. Why dont we try using new people? Hasnt that lightning been pretty strong recently?

Bullshit!
The person-in-charge pped his assistant, causing his face to swell.
They are the sessors that the organization has nurtured with great difficulty. After a few more years of training,lightning will definitely be able to squeeze into the top ten! If I let him die now, the higher-ups will kill me immediately! Are youining that Im dying too slowly and didnt make room for you?
The Deputy covered his face, which was almost numb from the pain, lowered his head and immediately admitted his mistake.Yes, yes, yes, its all my fault. Boss is the most thoughtful one! Im just giving you a random idea, so just treat it as a fart!
His tone was sincere and humble, but there was a sh of hatred in his eyes.
He had made a kind suggestion, but he was beaten up in the end! How was he going to face his colleagues in the future!
If he was humiliated and couldnt return the favor, the sense of humiliation would increase exponentially!
Everyone hade out to make a living, who didnt have a few lives on their hands?
The deputys hands clenched tightly. It didnt matter. He would let him live for a few days. There would always be a time when he made a mistake and was caught! The position of the person in charge would be his sooner orter!
The person-in-charge watched his Deputy leave dejectedly, and the anger in his heart dissipated a little. After his rationality returned, he began to seriously consider his deputys suggestion.
The Deputy was right. The top ten killers were all smart. Family Jing had protected their heir so well and they had found so many masters to fight back. It would be suicide to kill Jing Rui.
Maybe Angel could have done it, but she would not have done it to Jing Rui.
If they sent assassins lower than the eleventh rank, it would be sending the assassins to their deaths. Moreover, they had to report the information of the assassins they sent to their employer at all times. If the employer knew that they had only sent low-level assassins, he would definitely be furious. More importantly, if word got out, the assassin organization would lose face!
After much thought, it seemed that it was most appropriate to send new killers.
A newborn calf was not afraid of a Tiger. Lightning and the others were full of energy. If they went together, they might seed.
Furthermore, it would be easier to exin to the employer: This is our newly trained killer. He has even sent out the first ce. He values this deal very much.
The person in charge thought carefully for a whole day, and then asked the General Manager of the assassin base for instructions.
The previous person-in-charge of the assassin base had already died from infection, and the current person-in-charge was one of the most powerful people in the entire assassin organization.
The future of the entire organization was rted to the new killers. The leader did not dare to make such a decision alone, so he immediately discussed it with other leaders.
The next day, Jing Rui received a message on his internalmunication device as soon as he got out of bed.
The highest level mission of the assassin base has been issued.
[Quest executors: lightning, mo Mei, Chinese fir, Hurricane, Viper]
[Mission location: country Z, A city]
[Mission target: Jing Rui.]
[Mission difficulty: peak beyond Grade A]
Then, the screen of themunicator showed a high-definition profile picture.
Jing Rui looked down at his own face on the screen and smiled.
He was going to kill her!
Very good, everything was going ording to his n.
He hadnt been there for six years and he didnt know if A city was still as warm and beautiful as before. He hoped that Jing Zhi would be able to recall some of his memories when he returned.
Jing Zhi, Im going to take you home.
What the killer Camp taught the killers was never teambat, but individualbat. Therefore, the top five new killers were sent to carry out the mission not for them to cooperate with each other, but to allow them to fight continuously without any gaps and finally kill the target.
The five of them took turns to fight, so they should be able to catch the other party cking off, right?
However, the assassins below could not understand the arrangements of the higher-ups at all.
Except for Jing Rui, the other four were all shocked when they received the message.
To kill Jing Rui?
Recently, the name Jing Rui had been known throughout the entire killer organization.
This mission had been issued half a year ago, and 22 top assassins had died. On average, four assassins died every month. However, the mission was still notpleted, and all the assassins felt that it was incredible!
Because of this, the assassin group had almost be a globalughing stock!
Who was this Jing Rui? 22 killers had tried to kill him, but he was still alive and well! His life was too tough!
He had already be a legend in the entire assassin world!
Was it a joke to ask the five newbies to kill Jing Rui?
The mission levels of the assassin organization were ranked from A to C. A was the highest, followed by B, and C.
The highest level mission for a newbie was only C! Even if it was a C-rank mission, it was already very difficult. The death rate of newbies was very high!
What the hell was a top beyond Grade A mission? They had never heard of such a mission level in the assassin camp!
And he had never heard of a group of five assassins killing people! Wasnt it obvious that their strength was far inferior to the other party s?
It was said that the killer ranked eleventh had died, so why did they send the new killers instead of the top ten killers to kill Jing Rui?
Isnt Angel, who is ranked first, very powerful? Send her!
Could it be that he was going to use the five of them as cannon fodder?
Just as the five of them had their own thoughts, another message came through themunicator. Attention, everyone. This is a trial mission. If you cant kill the target, please prioritize your life.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that they were not sent to their deaths.
Since her priority was to stay alive, it was not a bad idea to go to A city in country Z and meet the legendary Jing Rui. It was worth it! It would be an honor to be able to escape unscathed when dealing with a top beyond A like Jing Rui.
Jing Zhi was nibbling on an orange in bed. He couldnt help butugh when he saw the message.Tsk, youve learned how to buy peoples hearts! Save his life? Its so that we can live to earn money for you!
He gobbled down an orange with its skin and meat. Suddenly, he felt that the two words on themunicator were a little familiar.
Jing Rui?
Jing Zhi rubbed his chin unconsciously and mumbled the name,Jing Rui ... She said.
Why did he feel a sense of familiarity?
He held his head and thought hard, but his head hurt from thinking, and he still couldnt remember who she was.
He clicked on the photo on the screen of hismunicator. At first nce, he felt a sense of familiarity. However, when he looked at it carefully, the sense of familiarity disappeared.
Where had he seen this person before?
The more he thought about it, the more his mind went nk!
Jing Zhi was so irascible that he was about to go crazy.
Not only was Jing Zhi going crazy, but the top leader of the Virus Research Institute was also going crazy!
He was shouting into the phone,no, I cant let Sean go on a mission! He cant go to A city!
Chapter 917
Chapter 917: The copse of the cooperation
Trantor: 549690339
North, my brother, dont get angry. Lets talk about this slowly.
Andrew, the most powerful person in the assassin group, spoke to the other party in a slow and soft voice.
He had an elegant temperament, a slightly chubby body, and a kind face. He didnt look like the leader of a criminal organization who made a living by harvesting lives.
Furthermore, Andrew was Asian.
Once, he was the worlds number one assassin.
Now that he had a huge fortune, he no longer did dangerous things. He cherished his life and wanted to live as long as possible. Otherwise, he wouldnt have joined forces with the Virus Research Institute to get Jing Zhi back as soon as he heard that the virus in Jing Zhis body could prolong his life.
He was already close to sixty years old, and if there were no idents, he could only live to seventy at most.
The average lifespan of an assassin was very short. The more skilled an assassin was, the shorter their lifespan would be. This was because when they were young, under the tough training of the assassin camp, their potential had been squeezed out, and their bodies were seriously damaged.
Many assassins could only live to about 50 years old. It was a miracle to live to 70 years old.
Until now, Andrew had been cultivating his body and spirit, trying to live longer.
However, his good temper didnt move the Furious North.
What is there to talk about? Hurry up and withdraw the order, withdraw Sean and rece him with someone else! He cant run out of North America!
Brother, dont worry. He has our tracker on him. He cant run away!
Cant I take out the tracker? If its taken out, where are you going to find him? Dont forget, his bodys Secret is rted to how long we can live! Letting him go to your ce to be an assassin is already the limit, you cant take any more risks! I want to make sure that he wont run away and that hes still alive!
Brother, you dont trust me?
Andrew still sounded very patient, like a good-tempered uncle next door, but the words he said revealed his killer nature and sinister intentions.
The tracking device that we developed, once it is ced in the body, it can not be taken out. The moment it is taken out, our base will immediately sense it, and then we can detonate it! As long as there was a bang, not to mention people, even a building would be blown to the ground! If it wasnt for the fact that there were too many radioactive substances in it and the human body cant withstand a second chip, we would have imnted a few more.
That wont do either! What if Sean risked his life to take out the chip? I said, I want to make sure he lives! Theres only value if youre alive. If youre dead, we wont be able to find such a good test subject again!
Hehe, that wont happen. Our professional psychiatrist has already tested Seans suicidal tendencies. The probability of himmitting suicide is about the same as the probability of Mars crashing into earth. He cherishes his life very much, and he wont easily joke around with his life.
No, no, I just dont agree! Sean might recall the past when he returns to A city. Ive spent so much effort to make him forget the past, if you make him remember it again ...
Before North could finish, Andrew cut him off.If he remembers it again, you can make him lose his memory again!
His murderous intent seemed to be able to prate the phone and reach North.
North actually had a fear of Andrew. They were from the same generation and knew of Andrews past achievements.
However, Andrews temper had be much gentler in recent years, so he dared to shout at Andrew.
Now that he heard Andrews cold voice, he immediately felt his scalp go numb.
However, on second thought, even if Andrew was powerful, that was decades ago. He was so fat now, it would be hard for him to kill, right?
North quickly calmed down. He didnt want to back down at all about what happened with Jing Zhi.
He had always been a paranoid man who couldnt change his mind once he had made up his mind, and Jing Zhis safety was a major issue in the virus Research, so he was even more unwilling to give in.
If we make Sean lose his memory again, his brain will be useless! You only know how to fight and kill all day. You dont understand medicine or science at all! You have so many assassins with you, why did you have to send Sean? Go and change!
This is impossible!
North was a paranoid man, and Andrew wasnt any better.
He hated it when people questioned his decisions, and he hated it even more when North pointed fingers at him. And now he was saying that he didnt understand science!
He believed that the internal control and management system of the assassin organization was extremely strict, and there was no possibility of any mistakes!
For so many years, the assassin organization had hundreds of thousands or even millions of assassins under itsmand. It had been passed down from generation to generation. When had there ever been a problem?
None of the assassins who escaped had a good ending!
Even Angel was forced toe back!
Theyve already set off, and Ive already told my employer who Ill send out this time. If I take back my order now, where will I put my face?
Youre going to let Sean risk his life just to save your face? If I had known earlier, I wouldnt have sent Sean to your ce. You said that youll cultivate a worlds number one, what a fart! He couldnt evenpare to that Lightning now! And that purple or red fir guy, a girl is almost surpassing him, what kind of nonsense are you training!
Hmph! If you werent so eager for quick sess that you took too much blood and bone marrow from Sean, would he be this weak now? The drugs that youve been injecting into his body every day are all for muscle atrophy and to prevent his brain from developing. Do you think I dont know? Hes already 17 years old, but he still acts like a child sometimes. Do you dare to say that this has nothing to do with you?
Being ridiculed by an old man who dealt with viruses all day Long, Andrews angerpletely erupted.
You give me a severe anemia patient with an underdeveloped brain and stiff muscles. No matter how capable I am, I cant raise a world No. 1!
Why is he underdeveloped? His muscles were so strong, and his intelligence far exceeded his peers! The reason why hes suffering from anemia is because your people detonated that broken chip, causing him to lose a lot of blood!
The reason why he has such powerful muscle strength is all because of my efforts in training him! Otherwise, he would be a bedridden, mentally retarded idiot! Im making up for all the mistakes youve made! Sean is mine, not yours. I have the final say in whatever he does!
As the two giants talked, the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger, and there was already a momentum of copse.
Chapter 918
Chapter 918: Dad, no girls are chasing you?
Trantor: 549690339
While the two giants were criticizing each other, Jing Rui and the other five people had already taken different flights to A city.
In order to ensure that they could kill Jing Rui, the killer organization had secretly arranged for other killers to help.
Andrew was determined to get this mission. He couldnt make any more mistakes, or his position would be shaken.
So many high-level assassins had died while he was in charge. He should take the me and resign.
It was just that Andrew couldnt bear to give up the wonderful feeling of being high and mighty and controlling the life and death of others, so he suppressed the voices of opposition. But he knew that he could not suppress it for too long. He had to get rid of Jing Rui immediately, then take on a few big orders and find a few new killers with potential, so that the whole killer organization could be rejuvenated!
It waste at night in A city. The entire city was shrouded in mist. It was misty, dreamy, mysterious, and amorous.
When Jing Rui got off the ne, he saw the beautiful and familiar night view of A city. Even the moist air felt familiar.
It had been too long since he had returned. In seven years, many things had changed, but the feeling of home had never changed.
His father used to say that he was too young and didnt understand the warmth of a family, so he liked to go out and wander alone. When he grew up and went through hardships, he would know that the most beautiful ce in the world couldntpare to a bed at home.
His father was right. It was only now that he truly felt how good it was to have a home!
He was dragging a silver suitcase, carrying a backpack, wearing a ck baseball cap and a light gray sports shirt. He was tall and straight, youthful and sunny, like an overseas student who had just returned from a holiday.
Jing Rui was 1.86 meters tall at the age of 19. Although he was wearing an ordinary-looking human skin mask, it could not hide his innate noble temperament.
He lowered his cap and dragged his suitcase out of the airport. He got into a ck Volkswagen and disappeared into the traffic.
In a Volkswagen that looked ordinary but had a luxurious interior, a cold and Noble man who wore a ck suit even in the summer was sitting in the car indifferently.
He looked up at Jing Rui and said calmly,You still know toe back?
Jing Rui felt a little ufortable and called out in a low voice,Dad!
Jing Yichen sized up his son from head to toe and then looked away. He suppressed the joy of seeing his son and asked casually,When are you going back?
The time limit is one week.
Yes.
And then ... There was no and then .
It was so quiet in the car that Tiger, who was the driver in the front seat, suspected that he was driving an empty car. The two people in the back seat who had the same temperament seemed to be his imagination!
After a long time, when Tiger thought that the father and son had calmed down, he heard Jing Rui ask hesitantly,My mom ... Is she okay?
Jing Yichen closed the file and leaned against his back as he said,Alright, he said.
Did you tell her that Im back?
Jing Yichens face was expressionless. He said in a cold voice,Yes.
Eh?
What did mm mean? Did he say it or not?
Jing Rui felt helpless. His father was still angry at him for leaving without saying goodbye.
What should he do?
He had no experience in coaxing people! And ... Looking at his fathers cold face, he felt that even if he coaxed him, it might not be effective.
The carriage fell into a dead silence again.
Tiger, who was driving in front, was worried to death by the father and son!
He knew Jing Yichen well and was used to his way of speaking. He also knew that Jing Yichen was a man of few words and didnt know how to chat.
However, the little master had only left when he was twelve years old. Now that he had returned, he was already so old. Even if the father and son did not hug each other and cry, they should at least have expressed their feelings!
This wasnt the time to spit out the words one by one!
Even he was anxious to ask if his young master had been doing well abroad and if he had been bullied. He also wanted to know how Jing Zhi was doing and if he had found him.
He wanted to ask the young master if he had a girlfriend or ... A boyfriend! He had followed Jing Yichen abroad for ten years and he knew how easy it was to turn a straight man gay.
Unfortunately, Tiger had so many questions and gossip that he didnt dare to ask a single word, otherwise he would have been thrown out of the car by Jing Yichen.
Jing Rui did not know that Tiger was up to no good. He looked at his father and was surprised to find that time had not left many traces on him. He had only be more dignified and reserved.
Jing Yichen looked exactly the same as when he left home at the age of twelve. He was wearing a white shirt, a custom-made ck suit, and had short hair. He exuded the unique charm of a mature man. Young girls could not resist such a sessful and Noble man.
Jing Yichen noticed his sons gaze, so he turned around and asked calmly,Is there a problem?
Dad, no girls are chasing you?
Jing Yichen frowned and said coldly,No, I didn t!
Dad, mom used to conclude that when you lie, your voice will be lower than usual, and the corners of your eyes will also be slightly upturned. Just now, you have achieved both of these!
Jing Rui finally regained his confidence. He copied Jing Yichen and crossed his legs, leaned against the back of the car seat and made a conclusion.It seems that there are a lot of girls chasing you, and many of them are pestering you.
Jing Yichen couldnt help but frown even more.
Jing Rui took the document from his father and said calmly,Dont worry, I wont tell my mom. Shell be sad if she knows.
Jing Yichen finally got angry and scolded his son. Dont talk nonsense! Youre so young, yet you dont learn well and blindly ponder! Did you go out to learn how to kill or create scandals? I only have your mother as my woman, I dont have any youngdies!
Jing Rui opened the file and smiled.
Sigh, it still hasnt changed at all. Not only did the henpecked husbands strictness not reduce, it even became worse!
He had just casually made up a little girl, and his father looked like he was going to beat him up.
His mothers other achievements in this life were not very outstanding, but her ability to train her husband was something that all women should learn from.
If he had known that his fathers mask would immediately crack when he mentioned his mother, he would have moved it as soon as he got into the car!
But Jing Rui didnt stay happy for long before he was defeated by Jing Yichen.
How about you? My son is so outstanding, dont you think the number of girls chasing you would line up from North America to the moon?

Chapter 919: Dad, youve changed
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was much calmer than Jing Yichen. He said calmly,The killer organization doesnt allow rtionships, and the killers dont have time for rtionships.
Oh, really? Then why did I hear that someone had entrusted their daughter to you?
How did you know about this? Jing Rui looked up in surprise.
He thought that he had kept the matter a secret. Only a few of his trusted subordinates knew about it, and they would not reveal any information to anyone, not even Jing Yichen.
Could it be ...
Damn it!
It must be that hypnotist!
His expression quickly turned cold.Hmph! It seems like hes tired of living! He said.
He actually dared to find his father behind his back!
The hypnotist was full of schemes. No wonder he was still alive after killing so many people!
If he dared to look for Jing Yichen now, he would probably look for someone elseter.
He and Jing Zhis identities would be exposed.
He needed to arrange for Jing Zhi to be hypnotized as soon as possible. If this dragged on any longer, the hypnotist might escape.
Jing Ruis face darkened.
He had made a mistake in his actions, which made him feel very embarrassed.
At first, he thought that he had learned a lot in the seven years abroad and that he had changedpletely. He thought that he could stand in front of his father and tell him confidently,
Dad, your son has grown up!
Our son doesnt need your protection anymore!
In the future, let me protect you and mom!
And the result?
He needed his father to fill in the gaps for such a foolproof n.
How embarrassing!
He lowered his head and said to Jing Yichen,since you know about the hypnotist, you must know that I am holding his daughter as a hostage. If he can help Jing Zhi regain his memory, Ill help his daughter get out of danger and give her enough money to live a peaceful life. This matter has nothing to do with love between men and women, so please dont mock me.
Seeing his sons dejected look, Jing Yichen wanted to reach out his hand to touch his head, but found that his son was no longer a twelve-year-old child. He patted his sons shoulder and said in a gentle tone,
Im not ridiculing you, Im just reminding you.
Jing Rui nodded.
Also, that hypnotist has a very strong killing intent and wariness towards you. This person must die. But after he dies, how can you be sure that his daughter wont seek revenge on you after she finds out the truth?
First, his daughter doesnt know who her father is or whether hes still alive. Second, I wont let her know that Im the one who killed her father. Third, if she finds out and wants to take revenge on me, she will be the one to die in the end!
Ruirui, do you like her?
Daddy!
Jing Rui did not know whether tough or cry. Where did Jing Yichen get the feeling that he liked her?
I told you, shes a hostage! Ive never even seen her before, how could I like her!
That hypnotist is quite good-looking. Ive checked his wife who passed away, and shes not bad looking either. As long as his daughter doesnt grow out of shape, her appearance should still be passable.
Jing Yichen had to be a top beauty if he said not bad. But who would care about the looks of the hypnotists family? He had agreed to take care of the hypnotists daughter so that the hypnotist would try his best to help Jing Zhi recover his memory.
Jing Rui had a headache.
Dad, youve changed!
You werent such a gossipy person in the past! Why did it look like he was urging her to get married now?
He was only neen years old, alright?
Dad, you havent even met my mom at 29, and now you have the nerve to lecture me?
Jing Rui shook his head helplessly and continued to read the information in his hand. He changed the topic.The assassin organization sent someone else besides the five of us?
Jing Yichen didnt want to push his son too much. He had said those words just to see his sons attitude towards love.
Fortunately, although he had never been in a rtionship, he had not really been brainwashed by the killer organization and be an emotionless cold-blooded animal.
Jing Rui had aplete and warm family since he was a child. He grew up in a loving family, so even after seven years of inhuman training, there was still a part of his heart that was soft.
Jing Yichen didnt want his son to be another him. When he was young, his heart had been frozen, and even his soul was frozen.
Although his son was cold, everything was normal. This way, he was relieved.
Yes, he said indifferently.In addition to you newbies, they also sent four old assassins. They are all top 100 assassins. The detailed information is all in there.
In this way, there were a total of nine assassins in A city.
This was already quite a big deal!
They really think highly of me, Jing Rui sneered.
Its fine. Everything is ready here. Who do you want to leave behind?
Mo Mei must die. As for the others, just watch a few die. That Zishan only needs to test the waters. Dont really make a move. I havent figured out that shes not normal, so I cant alert her.
Jing Zhi could only leave the killer organization after mo Mei was dead.
Of course, this wasnt a long-term solution. If Jing Zhi returned to A city and lived with family Jing, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the killer organization and the Research Institute.
They could only hide it for a very short period of time. The most fundamental solution was to take control of these tworge organizations.
Alright!
Jing Yichen agreed without hesitation.
To him, all these people were for his son to practice his skills. Whether they lived or died, his son would have the final say.
The killer organization had sent out nine killers. It was certainly impossible for them to release all of them, but they couldnt kill all of them either. Otherwise, their strength would arouse the suspicion of the killer organization.
Moreover, Jing Rui had to return to the assassin base alive. He had been nning for so long. When he returned, he could activate all his chess pieces and start a fight.
It would be too eye-catching for Jing Rui to go back alone, so someone had to go back with him. Zishan, who was ranked third, was a good choice.
Jing Zhis flight will arrive in A city in about an hour and a half. Dad, ask second uncle to follow him. He might remember something when he sees second uncle.
Jing Zhi doesnt have anyone from the Research Institute or any killer organization with him? Wont we be exposed if we let your second uncle go?
Jing Rui smiled confidently.It doesnt matter. He is my man. The person in charge of long-distance surveince in North America also has a fatal weakness in my hands. Other than the mistake on the hypnotists part, there shouldnt be any other mistakes! Your son is neen this year, not nine!
His tone was extremely arrogant, with the air of a king who held power in the world.
Jing Yichen couldnt help but feel proud.

Jing Zhi had the feeling that someone was following him ever since he got off the ne.
A killers intuition was extremely sharp, and Jing Zhis senses were far more sensitive than ordinary people s. He immediately noticed that someone was staring at him.
However, there were many people at the airport. He thought that he was tall and handsome, so it was normal to attract attention.
It had only been a short while, but there were already many girls and wives peeking at him.
But when Jing Zhi walked out of the airport, he was certain that he was being followed.
The feeling of being targeted as soon as he arrived in this unfamiliar city was terrible for an assassin!
Jing Zhi really wanted to shoot the person who was following him.
Unfortunately, he couldnt bring guns with him on the ne, so he had nothing on him, not even a bullet shell.
His backpack and luggage were only filled with clothes and food. He didnt bring anything that could arouse suspicion.
If he wanted to get the gun, he had to go to a specific ce in the base to get it.
Jing Zhi could only pretend that he didnt see anyone following him and walk forward.
In fact, even if he had a gun on him, he couldnt kill people at will.
It was true that he was an assassin, and killing was his profession, but that didnt mean that he could randomly kill people.
In the process of carrying out a mission, unless there was a threat to the killers life, the killer was not allowed to kill at will. This was a long-standing rule in the world of killers.
The first thing an assassin should do after arriving at their destination was not to immediately find their target and kill him, but to familiarize themselves with the surrounding environment.
This would not only increase the sess rate of the mission, but he could also use his familiarity with the terrain and environment to leave easily.
Jing Zhi strolled along the streets in the middle of the night. He looked at the ck-haired, ck-eyed, yellow-skinned faces, the flowers and trees unique to A city, and the conversations around him. He suddenly felt like he had entered a strange dream.
He had been here before!
No, to be exact, he remembered this ce!
He was familiar with everything here!
It was something that was engraved in his bones and was difficult to erase!
How could this be?
There was no trace of this ce in his memory!
The weather in June was already a little hot, but cold sweat was dripping down Jing Zhis forehead.
His head seemed to be on the verge of exploding. This was a sign every time he was about to recall the past.
But no matter how he thought, his mind was nk!
There was an inexplicable sense of familiarity, and she was about to blurt it out, but she couldnt remember anything!
Ah!
Jing Zhi suddenly held his head and started screaming. He fell to the ground in pain and curled up. He hit his head with one punch after another.
His head hurt as if it was being pricked by needles, and he couldnt care about anything else!
Jing Yiran had been following Jing Zhi the whole time. Seeing his son fall to the ground in pain, he ran over and picked Jing Zhi up.Child, whats wrong? Dont scare me!
There werent many people in the middle of the night, but because this ce was close to the airport, some people who had just gotten off the ne saw Jing Zhi suddenly fall to the ground screaming and wanted to help. However, many people were worried that their kindness would be taken advantage of, so they only watched from a distance and didnt go over to check on Jing Zhi.
What was more, Jing Yiran had already stepped in to help them, so no one else had stepped in.
After receiving Jing Yichens call, Jing Yiran had been waiting at the exit of the airport.
He followed Jing Zhi as soon as he appeared.
He chased after his son at a distance that was neither too far nor too close. Looking at his tall and strong appearance, he was both gratified and sad. When his son was taken away, he was only ten years old and was still a child who did not know anything. Now, he had grown up!
If Jing Yichen had not given him Jing Zhis picture, he would not have recognized him.
He wanted to know what his son looked like now, and if he was as handsome as him. But Jing Zhi was wearing a human skin mask and Jing Yichen had said that the staff of the Institute of virus had injected hyaluronic acid into Jing Zhis face regrly to change his appearance in case he was recognized.
Jing Yiran was not a man who shed tears easily. But the moment he saw his son, his tears fell without warning.
Now that he saw his son screaming and falling down, he didnt care about anything else and rushed forward.
Luckily, he was still rational enough to call Jing Zhi the child instead of his real name.
Jing Zhi heard someone calling his name in his daze. Then he fell into a warm and strong embrace. Two arms wrapped around him so tightly that he couldnt breathe.
In his memory, no one had ever held him.
However, this embrace today was also inexplicably familiar!
Jing Zhi forced his eyes open and looked at the man who was holding him in his arms and calling him anxiously.
Then, he was stunned.
The person in front of him was at least 70% simr to him!
His consciousness immediately became much more clear, and the pain in his mind was greatly reduced.
Who are you?
Although Jing Yiran knew that his son had lost his memory, his son didnt know him at all. He looked at him as if he was a stranger and spoke in English instead of Chinese. His heart ached.
He tried his best to suppress the pain in his heart and his anger at the person who took his son away. He still held Jing Zhi tightly and asked him with concern,Are you feeling better? Where are you feeling ufortable? Ill take you to the hospital!
The word hospital was no different from hell to Jing Zhi.
As far as he knew, the hospital was not a ce to treat the wounded and rescue the dying, but a ce to imprison him, draw his blood, and inject him with all kinds of poisons.
Get lost! Im not going!
He pushed Jing Yiran away like a mad man, got up from the ground and staggered forward, without even taking his luggage.
Jing Yiran was pushed to the ground by Jing Zhi. Half of his body was numb.
But nothing was more important than his son. Jing Yiran didntin about Jing Zhis violence.
His son did not know him, so it was not strange for him to have such a reaction.
The strange thing was that his son immediately exploded when he heard the word hospital!
Although Jing Yiran didnt know how Jing Zhi had been living the past seven years, he knew that Lu had been used by his parents for a virus test and what life she had been living in the killer organization. So he could guess what Jing Zhi had been through.
Now that he saw Jing Zhis dislike for the hospital, his first reaction was that his son must have suffered a lot in the hospital.
Jing Yiran got up from the ground, took Jing Zhis suitcase and ran after him.

Because of the pain in his head, Jing Zhi couldnt even keep his bnce, so he walked slowly. Jing Yiran caught up with him in no time.
After walking for a while, Jing Zhi suddenly turned around and sneered.Get lost, or Ill kill you! Were the people sent by the assassin organizations all so low-level? Its a miracle that youre still alive with your tracking skills!
Jing Yiran got startled and said subconsciously, Im not one of them!
Youre not?
Jing Zhi frowned,then who are you working for? A doctor from the Virus Research Institute?
Jing Yiran finally realized that Jing Zhi had mistook him for one of them.
Im a doctor, he said in a low voice, shaking his head.But Im not from the virology research Institute you mentioned. Im from A city.
Jing Zhi didnt like doctors at all. Hearing Jing Yiran say that he was a doctor, he snorted and turned away.
If it wasnt for the fact that he was new here and wasnt familiar with the environment, and was afraid that killing people would cause trouble and hinder thepletion of the mission, he would have killed this man who had been following him!
This was not North America. It was not the base camp of the Research Institute and killer organizations where one could kill without being harmed.
Although he was arrogant, he wouldnt take risks and cause trouble for himself.
Seeing his son leaving, Jing Yiran followed him with his luggage.
Jing Zhi walked a long way and saw the tail following him. He couldnt help but get angry.Why are you following me? Dont think that I dont dare to kill you!
He pinched Jing Yirans Adams apple as he said this. He hated being followed like this. He didnt want to put up with this man anymore.
Jing Yiran was very familiar with this move, because Lu and Jing Yichen liked to use it to kill people.
He was so frightened that he immediately shouted,ah Chi, dont do it! Im your father!
Jing Zhis hand froze in mid-air.
What did you just say? Say that again!
Im not lying to you. Im really your father! City A is your home. You lived here before you were taken away! You really cant remember anything?
Jing Yiran didnt care about anything else. If he didnt tell the truth today, he would be killed by his son.
Since Jing Yichen dared to let him meet Jing Zhi, it meant that he would not be in any danger.
Although he didnt know how Jing Yichen had done it, he had full faith in his brothers ability. Jing Yichen would take care of everything. He had to save his own life first and then reunite with his son.
Jing Zhi looked at Jing Yiran in a daze, and his heart wavered.
The person in front of him looked 70% simr to him, and he could tell at a nce that this person was not wearing a human skin mask or makeup. With such simr looks, no one would believe that they were not blood-rted.
Moreover, he had a strange sense of familiarity with this ce. He felt that he had been here before. If he really grew up here and his memory was erasedter, then that sense of familiarity could be exined.
But Jing Zhi didnt believe her.
Walking on the streets of a foreign country, a man suddenly appeared and said he was your father. This was strange no matter how you think about it!
But Jing Zhi didnt kill Jing Yiran.
The person in front of him was acting so strangely. Even if he was not his father, he must have some other identity.
Jing Zhi was an excellent killer and an excellent spy. It was easy for him to get rid of Jing Yiran, who had never received any professional training.
He soon disappeared from Jing Yirans sight and started to follow him.
He silently hid himself in the shadows, and then saw the man who was nearly fifty years old squatting by the road in the middle of the night with his suitcase in his arms, crying loudly!
His sobs were filled with despair and deep sorrow, as if he had lost the most important thing in his life.
The passersby looked at him in surprise, then shook their heads and left.
Jing Zhi was stunned.
He was now seventeen years old, and he had never cried so loudly without any scruples.
He was a man. If he had any pain, he should swallow it in his stomach and not show it, as it would make people look down on him. He couldnt cry as he pleased and be a joke!
Was this person acting?
Perhaps he knew that she was following him, so he cried on purpose for her to see?
Then this persons acting skills were too good. It would be unreasonable not to give him an Oscar.
Jing Yiran was heartbroken that he had lost his son. The pain and hatred that he had umted over the past seven years burst out in an instant. He cried so hard that he could not control himself.
His son had been taken away, and his wife had been forced to leave him to protect his son. For so many years, he had lived alone and missed his son!
If Jing Yichen hadnt sent news to his son and wife every month, he doubted that he would have been able to survive for so many years.
He only hated himself for being useless!
He could not protect his wife and son!
He could not even sneak into a killer organization like Jing Rui and show his son any love.
Jing Yiran squatted there and cried for a long time. He cried so much that his eyes were swollen, his voice was hoarse and he had no strength left.
He sat down on the ground by the roadside and called Jing Yichen without any care for his image.
Brother, Ive lost ah Chi. What should I do?
She was already close to fifty years old, but her tone was like a child s, helpless, lost, pained, and self-reproaching.
Jing Yichens calm voice came from the phone.Well, its normal. Hes already one of the worlds top assassins. If you could follow him, his killer organization would have been disbanded a long time ago.
Brother, will he be in danger? I just called his name and told him that Im his father. What if someone else heard it?
No, Ruirui has arranged everything. Chi wont be in any danger in the short term.
Jing Yiran let out a sigh of relief, but he was still disappointed.Brother, am I very useless?
Yes, Jing Yichen said with certainty.
Jing Yiran held his breath. He was both angry and annoyed. Would it kill him to lie to him?
Well, telling the truth was Jing Yichens style!
He held the phone and didnt say a word, but he didnt want to hang up either. He just kept crying into the phone.
In the entire A city, Jing Yichen was the only person who could make him feel at ease. Even if he didnt say anything, as long as he could feel Jing Yichens presence, he would feel confident and hopeful that his brother would be there to support him even if the sky fell.
Jing Yichen was very patient. He didnt hang up the phone because of Jing Yirans silence and crying.
After a while, he said indifferently,Dont cry. Go back and pack up. Wait for your son toe home.

Chapter 922: Father and son reuniting (3)
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi, who was hiding in the dark, heard the conversation between Jing Yichen and Jing Yiran.
Because a chip had been taken out of his body, his hearing had recovered a lot in the past six months. Although it was not as good as before, it was still much better than that of ordinary people.
So even if Jing Yiran didnt put the phone on speaker, he could still hear everything Jing Yichen said.
But Jing Zhi was even more confused after hearing their conversation.
What was going on?
Who was the ah Chi they were talking about?
Was it him?
But if it really was him, how could hee home? In the hands of the two great organizations, he could not escape at all!
The morning light brightened, and light gradually appeared in the East, driving away the uneasy night.
Jing Zhis heart ached when he saw Jing Yirans tall figure moving forward slowly.
This pain came too suddenly and too inexplicably, causing his entire body to sink into a kind of stiffness.
He did not hesitate and followed.
Jing Yiran was dragging Jing Zhis suitcase along the path.
The rising sun shone on his face, gradually bringing him warmth and hope.
Jing Yichen had told him to go home and pack up for his son. Could his son really go home now?
Jing Yichen had always kept his word and had never lied to him.
It was not until this moment that Jing Yiran recovered from the disappointment of losing his son and finally understood what Jing Yichen meant.
After he recovered, he felt a burst of excitement in his heart. He dragged his suitcase and strode back to his vi.
When he got home, he didnt even ask the servants to help clean up. He rolled up his sleeves, wiped the table, mopped the floor, and even took the nkets to the yard to dry.
All these years, he had been living here alone. There were many new nkets in the cupboard, and they were almost moldy after being left there for so long.
In the future, when his son returned home, he could not let him cover his son with a moldy nket!
He tidied up from early morning tote at night, full of energy. He was busy the whole day, and even for lunch, he didnt eat seriously before letting the servants clean up.
In the dead of the night, the vi seemed even more empty.
When Jing Yiran had some free time, the heartache slowly overwhelmed him.
His vi was a small one with only two floors.
However, Jing Yiran had not been to the second floor since Jing Zhi went missing.
The second floor was Jing Zhis bedroom, study, art studio, and a yroom that was specially built for him.
Jing Yiran didnt dare to go up. He was afraid that he would be in so much pain if he saw his sons room.
He just asked the servants to clean it every day and protect it well until his son coulde back one day.
Jing Yiran was sitting on the sofa with Jing Zhis suitcase beside him.
He stared at the suitcase for a long time before he tried to open the password lock.
He had thought that it would be difficult to open it, but he did not expect to open it after only one try!
The password was Jing Zhis birthday.
The suitcase was huge and filled to the brim. Other than some clothes, most of the contents were food.
Jing Yiran knew that his son was as hungry as his wife. That was why he had brought so much food with him.
He suddenly thought of something and immediately took out his cell phone to call the servant.
Old Zhang, buy more food tomorrow. Remember to buy more chocte, oranges, and beef and mutton!
Elderly Zhang, who was on the other end of the phone, thought that something serious had happened when he was woken up by Jing Yiran. He said,Second master, youve already instructed me today. Ive already bought a lot. The three refrigerators at home cant hold all of them. There are also a few boxes of oranges in the dining room.
Its okay, Ill buy more!
Jing Yirans tone was unquestionable. He was worried that his son would not have enough to eat at home, and he would me himself for that.
Old Zhang had no choice but to agree.
After hanging up the phone, Jing Yiran was still worried. He went into the kitchen to check the food in the refrigerator.
But when he opened the fridge, it was empty!
Jing Yiran was a bit confused. After a while, he suddenly realized something and ran to the dining room to have a look.
Old Zhang had bought four boxes of oranges today, but there were only two boxes left!
The other two boxes werepletely empty!
Old Zhang and his wife had been working for him for several years. Both of them were honest and dutiful people from the countryside. They were usually diligent and never had the bad habit of stealing food. Besides, even if they did steal, it was impossible to steal so obviously!
It was his son!
His son was back!
Only he would steal food from home, only he could eat so much food! And he loved to eat oranges!
Jing Yiran smiled with tears in his eyes.
Jing Zhi had followed him back!
He must have been so hungry that he had spent all the food in the refrigerator!
Jing Zhiy on the bed on the second floor. He touched his round belly and sighed in satisfaction. He hadnt eaten so much in a long time.
He followed Jing Yiran all the way to the vi and the sense of familiarity grew stronger and stronger. When he entered the vi, he was surprised because he found that he could imagine the entire structure of the vi even if he closed his eyes.
He even went up to the second floor unconsciously and found his own bedroom with familiarity!
The bedroom was filled with pictures of his childhood!
The photos were taken from his birth until he was ten years old. There were photos of him alone and photos of him with his parents.
This was really his home!
The familiarity and kindness in his memory could not be deceived at all!
In fact, when he saw Jing Yiran, he also felt a sense of intimacy, but he had ignored it.
But everything had happened so suddenly and so unbelievably that Jing Zhi couldnt believe what he was seeing.
After he had calmed down, he decided to observe for a while.
If this was really his home, he could not stay here no matter what, and he could not acknowledge Jing Yiran. Otherwise, who knew what other methods the two great organizations would use!
He had been observing Jing Yiran in the dark the whole day. He felt warm inside when he saw Jing Yiran busy ordering the servants to buy things.
He was used to the life of being a test subject. In his memory, people were cold and indifferent. No one would dry his quilt for him or clean his house carefully for him!
But Jing Zhi still had too many questions on his mind. He didnt show himself. Instead, he stole some food from the kitchen and went to the second floor to eat.
There was only a family of three in the photo. Why was his brother not there?
Chapter 923
Chapter 923: A substitute
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi was overjoyed to see so many oranges in the dining room. He carried a lot of them to the second floor andid them all on the bed. Then heid on the oranges happily and munched on them while wondering about the photos.
He definitely had an older brother, otherwise, he wouldnt have endured the great pain and used a needle to Pierce the word older brother into his palm when his memory was gradually disappearing.
Moreover, in his memory fragments, there was no father or mother, only brother.
But why wasnt her brother in the family photos?
What he didnt know was that Jing Rui was the heir of family Jing and had been protected since he was young. He had never taken a picture with anyone.
Jing Rui rarely appeared in the public eye, and only a few people in the family could see him.
In the past, mu Sen and mu duo could not even see him often. Every time they met, it was very short.
Therefore, no one noticed that Jing Rui had used a substitute.
No one knew what he looked like. They only knew that he looked very simr to Jing Yichen.
Jing Zhi had no memory of the past. The man and woman in the photo gave him a vague feeling of deja vu, but he couldnt remember anything when he thought about it carefully.
He had only seen Jing Yiran today. What about his mother? He wasnt home the entire day. Was he out? Or ... Was he dead?
Jing Zhi shook his head, hating himself for losing his memory.
It was all those damn doctors fault for causing him to lose his memory!
One day, he would definitely get it back! Let them all die!
He wanted to find out everything that had happened in the past!
Jing Zhi was gritting his teeth in anger when his phone vibrated.
He opened it and saw the internal code of the killer organization disyed on the phone. The string of code that no one else could understand meant: Killer Hurricane, dead.
There was no doubt that Hurricane had died in the process of assassinating Jing Rui. He was ranked fourth on the neer list and was quite powerful. No one had expected him to die so quickly!
Jing Zhi was a little surprised, but also a little solemn.
Only those who were in this situation could feel the danger. The five of them hade out together to carry out a killing mission, but it was only the first night and one of them had already died. This kind of feeling made people feel very ufortable.
The night was hazy, and the fog was thick. Jing Zhi jumped down from the window on the second floor easily and disappeared into the night.
He didnt forget that he was here to carry out a mission. He had to get his full set of equipment first and finish the job.
Otherwise, if he didnt do anything, it would be easy to arouse the suspicion and fear of the assassin organization. He finally had a clue about his background. He didnt want to die, nor did he want to be captured and brought back to North America to have his memories erased again.
Jing Rui looked at the code on the phone and put it away expressionlessly. Then he started to pack up his equipment.
Yes, Hurricane was killed by him. Five minutes ago, he had killed Hurricane, who was about to shoot the fake Jing Rui.
Then, he received a brief message from the assassin organization.
An assassin organization would imnt a chip into every assassin so that they could control the life and death of an assassin at any time.
As soon as an Assassins vital signs disappeared, the A. I. Chip would immediately sense it and send the data back to the assassin base in North America. The assassin base would also announce the death of a certain assassin to all the assassins.
The reason why Jing Rui chose to do it himself instead of sending Lu to deal with the hurricane was to protect her and not let her be exposed.
Otherwise, it would be suspicious if Lu was not in North America every time a killer died.
This time, Lu stayed in North America and did not go back to A city.
Jing Rui was dressed in ck. He had not only changed his mask, but also put on a ck mask and a hat to cover his face so that no one would recognize him.
He packed up his equipment and looked up at the person in the window opposite him.
That person had a very simr figure to him, a very simr face, and even the cold temperament was very simr. If the two of them appeared at the same time, others would definitely think that they were twins.
Twins?
Jing Rui hated that word.
He had never liked people who looked like him since he was a child. Moreover, because of the Zheng sisters, Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei, he had even less of a good impression of the twins.
In fact, he knew that he didnt really hate the twins. He just hated how they looked exactly the same, and he hated what the two sisters had done to Jing Zhi when they were young.
When he saw the other twins, he didnt reject them. Sometimes, he would even take a second look at them. After all, the two identical children were quite likable.
Jing Rui hid himself in the dark and looked at the opposite side quietly.
His substitute was in a meeting with a group of people in suits.
In order not to arouse any suspicion, Jing Yichen had allowed the substitute to take part in the management of Jingsheng enterprise.
Except for the most important part, all the other work had been given to him. That was why the substitute often had meetings with the senior management of Jingsheng enterprise, sitting there and reprimanding the backbone of the enterprise with a cold face.
He had been acting as a substitute for seven years and had forgotten that he was a substitute. He was now the next heir of Jingsheng enterprise, making strategies and directing the country.
Power, wealth, beauty, glory, all of it was at his fingertips!
Today, someone had questioned his decision, and he was very angry, so the meeting went on untilte at night, and he still refused to let everyone leave.
He had no idea that he had just walked past the gates of hell.
If Jing Rui had been any slower, he would have had to report to the King of Hell.
The building Jing Rui was in was only one street away from the building of Jingsheng enterprise. It waste at night and the windows on both sides were open. He had excellent hearing, so he could hear everything the substitute said clearly.
Who owns Jingsheng enterprise? Mine! I have the final say here. Ill immediately take over limit media tomorrow! I dont care what price you have to pay, no matter how much money you spend, if you cant even take down a small mediapany, what else can you do in the future?
I want to be the best in the domestic media industry! The rest of the mediapanies are not allowed to live!
Jing Ruis eyes turned cold when he heard the roar from the other side. The substitute was even more arrogant than he was!
The Tiger wasnt at home, and the monkey thought of itself as a Tiger.
The senior management of Jingsheng enterprise were not to be trifled with. They were all trained and promoted by Jing Yichen and they were not convinced by anyone except for Jing Yichen.
The substitute was so arrogant and brainless that the higher-ups would never listen to him.
When he was in charge of Jingsheng enterprise, he would have to clean up the mess for his substitute.
Chapter 924
Chapter 924: The real heir of family Jing is back!
Trantor: 549690339
When he first found this substitute, he was not good with words and was also a very cautious person. He never spoke nonsense and was very good at reading peoples eyes.
He didnt expect that the substitute would change so much after he became the heir of family Jing.
That kind of imposing manner in his every movement was already the attitude of a superior.
Jing Rui still remembered that after he left, Jing Yichen had been worried about finding this body double, fearing that he would be exposed.
But now, the substitute was even more real than he, the original lead actor!
Jing Rui was in a bad mood when he saw the face that looked so simr to his own from a distance. He looked so arrogant and bossy.
In the brightly-lit office of Jingsheng enterprise opposite, the substitute Liao Wei was also in a bad mood.
The meeting had been going on for seven hours, but no matter how hard he tried to pressure them, the senior management of Jingsheng enterprise would not listen to him.
He had been a body double for seven years and family Jing had hired the best teachers to teach him. From the way he walked to the way he ate, from simple foreignnguages toplex management knowledge, he was changing bit by bit.
He was actually three years older than Jing Rui, because he was only as tall as Jing Rui when he was 12.
Even though he looked very tall now, he was only 1.8 meters tall because he was wearing special elevator shoes.
Over the past seven years, he had turned from a poor and poor student from a poor family to the young master of family Jing, who was admired by all the people in the city.
The custom-made suit he was wearing was worth 160000 dors. The patekpphilipe diamond watch on his wrist was the only one in the world and cost hundreds of thousands of dors.
Indifferent, noble, handsome, rich, he was the dream lover of all the girls in A city!
However, no matter how handsome he was or how rich he was, the twelve people at the conference table ignored him! He didnt give her any face at all!
Liao Wei knew very well that if Jing Yichen was here for the meeting, none of the twelve would dare to say no.
He had seen how Jing Yichen could be so arbitrary. Sometimes, Jing Yichen would do the business without any hesitation even if it was a losing business, and the twelve people would fight to support him.
Liao Wei sometimes suspected that these 12 people knew his real identity and that he was not the real Jing Rui. That was why they looked down on him.
But on second thought, he felt that he was overthinking.
Jing Yichen had told her that only a few people knew about this. No one in the enterprise knew about his identity.
Liao Wei did not believe in heresy. He had to subdue this bunch of people today! Jingsheng enterprise was his, and he was the master. Why should he listen to the maniption of these cunning old men?
He had studied hard for seven years, learning all kinds of knowledge from top teachers, especially aboutpany management. In order to y this role well, he had desperately memorized it!
After all, Jing Rui was a genius who had graduated from Harvard. If he knew too little, he would be exposed.
However, he thought that he already knew a lot now. Why did those higher-ups still look at him with disdain?
He had seen this expression before he became Jing Ruis substitute.
His family was poor, and his parents werezy people. His mother seduced men everywhere because she was pretty, but his father was immersed in gambling and couldnt extricate himself. Every time he lost a bet, he would drink non-stop, and when he got drunk, he would beat him up for no reason.
When he was a child, he would be very jealous when he saw other people eating well and wearing well. He would do anything to Rob them, so much so that he had been taken away by the police many times.
The neighbors around him despised his family. They did not have a good expression when they saw him. They would also show the same disdain as the high-level executives today!
The undisguised contempt of the higher-ups reminded Liao Wei of the unbearable memories of his childhood. His heart was pierced, so the anger that he had been suppressing was vented out at once.
You are just working for family Jing! What qualifications do you all have to challenge me? Those who dont agree with my decision, get lost immediately! I dont want useless people like you!
His words once again drew the contempt of the group of higher-ups.
They were loyal to Jing Yichen, but not to him. As the young master, he had no right to drive them away.
The group of senior executives looked at each other and saw the doubt in the eyes of others. Was this man really Jing Yichens son? Could he be a fake? He didnt inherit any intelligence from family Jing.
Liao Wei was still growling in anger when the door of the meeting room was suddenly opened and Tiger walked in.
Liao Wei was about to curse when he was interrupted, but he swallowed his words back when he saw that it was Tiger who was standing next to Jing Yichen.
Tiger was not someone he could provoke.
He used to think that Tiger was just Jing Yichens bodyguard and driver and didnt take him seriously at all. But every time he got too arrogant, Tiger would torture him. Liao Wei had learned his lesson after being beaten by Tiger so many times.
Young master, a friend of yours wants to see you.
Tigers honest face was full of respect, and so was his tone, as if he was talking to Jing Yichen.
Liao Wei finally felt a little better. He was very pleased with Tigers groveling.
However, Tigers words made him unhappy and confused. He said coldly,I dont have any friends, get out! Im in a meeting and no one is allowed to disturb me!
He looked very much like Jing Rui when he spoke with a cold face, but Tiger did not have a good impression of him.
A fake would always be a fake. No matter how much he taught and trained, a monkey would never be a tiger.
Tiger looked down on the substitutes behavior, but he didnt show it on his face. He still said respectfully,Hes a friend that the young master has been talking about. He just came back from afar. Didnt you tell the young master that you wanted to see him?
After Tiger finished speaking, he left with his head slightly lowered.
His respect was not for Liao Wei, but for Jing Rui.
Jing Rui would be back to take over the entirepany soon, and no one in the top management knew that the person in front of them was a substitute. If he did not show respect to the substitute, no one would respect Jing Rui when he came back.
Liao Wei watched as Tiger retreated, but his heart was in turmoil!
His face quickly turned pale, and his hands under the table were tightly twisted together.
Hes back!
Jing Rui was back!
The real heir of family Jing was back!
Chapter 925
Chapter 925: You cant kill me
Trantor: 549690339
Liao Weis sudden change in expression made all the higher-ups in the meeting room suspicious.
Twelve pairs of eyes stared at Liao Weis face without blinking, unwilling to miss any details.
There was definitely something wrong with this Jing Rui!
The 12 executives in the meeting room were all experienced people who had been on the battlefield for a long time.
Since they had been following Jing Yichen wholeheartedly and were highly valued by him, they had all studied Jing Yichen and family Jing carefully.
They all knew Jing Yichens style of doing things. He was cold, cruel, wise and decisive, and had an unparalleled IQ and EQ.
The sessor that such a person would cultivate would definitely not be an idiot like Liao Wei, who only knew how to act ruthlessly and arrogantly, but would not be able to solve any substantial problems.
Although Jing Yichen was also arrogant, he was a man of few words. So far, he had never yelled like Liao Wei.
It was not because Jing Yichen had a good temper, but because he didnt need to shout. He only needed to look at them coldly and they would surrender.
His meetings neversted more than 20 minutes, and in these 20 minutes, he could solve all the problems that gave them a headache.
And Liao Wei?
They spoke with fervor and assurance during the meeting, but in fact, none of their words hit the nail on the head!
Was this man, who had no real skills, really the heir of family Jing?
If the heir of family Jing was like this, then family Jing would go bankrupt soon.
In fact, they had been suspecting Liao Weis identity for a long time.
This was because Liao Wei not only did not have any real skills, but he also had no ess to the most confidential and core contents of the group.
If Jing Yichen really wanted him to take over the enterprise, he would have told him all the secrets, because even the twelve of them knew about them.
Most importantly, seven of them had seen the real Jing Rui before!
At that time, Jing Rui was only twelve years old, but he had already started to show his talent and was not to be underestimated.
The seven senior managers who had seen Jing Rui all suspected that Jing Rui was really only twelve years old. How could a twelve-year-old child be so calm and wise!
Now, Jing Rui was 19 years old, but he was not even one-ten-thousandth of his age when he was 12.
Jing Rui, who was twelve years old, was proficient in more than ten differentnguages and had graduated from Harvard with excellent results. He not only had a unique view on the business of apany, but also had a profound knowledge of various disciplines, including medicine, programming, astronomy, and geography.
What about Jing Rui, who was 19 years old? He could not even speak German, let alone astronomy and geography!
One of the seven senior executives who had met Jing Rui before was in charge of the business in Europe.
More than ten years ago, he was not a senior executive of Jingsheng enterprise, but an ordinary business manager in Europe. But he had met Jing Rui in Germany at that time.
At that time, Jing Rui was less than two years old. He had gone to Germany with his parents to visit his aunt, Zhao Anan, who was in the hospital. He spoke German very well.
It didnt make sense that he could speak German at the age of two, was proficient in more than a dozennguages at the age of twelve, and could only speak English and French at the age of neen!
The twelve executives were all suspicious of Liao Weis identity, but they were smart enough not to expose him, because Jing Yichens meaning was clear-to the public, this man was his son!
The heir of family Jing had always been a mysterious person. Jing Yichen himself had only started to show up in public after he was thirty years old, so it was not impossible to find a substitute to rece Jing Rui.
Seeing Liao Weis face turn pale in an instant, the twelve higher-ups were all extremely excited and excited.
Liao Wei was usually very cold and he would not panic even when he saw Jing Yichen.
Why did his face change so suddenly when Tiger said that a friend was here to see him?
Sigh, his mental fortitude was really a little bad!
Jing Yichen was a man who would not even frown if the sky fell.
Who was Liao Weis friend who had just returned from afar?
He even asked Tiger to tell this little master in the middle of the night!
Tiger was Jing Yichens man and no one could order him around except for Jing Yichen.
The identity of this friend was obvious!
The twelve senior managers had followed Jing Yichen in the business world for half their lives and were all experienced. They were a hundred times more astute than Liao Wei, who had just started his career. They had already guessed the truth from Tigers words.
Seeing Liao Wei sit there for a long time before he got up and went out, everyone wanted to go out and see that friend as well!
The people in the meeting room couldnt sit still anymore. They got up and opened the office door a crack to look out.
Old Dong, what kind of friend do you think he is? hes such a Big Shot!
Dont ask me, I didnt hear anything just now! I only know that our meeting is finally over and we can go home for dinner!
Both of you, lower your voices. Youre so annoying. I cant even hear whats being said outside!
Quiet, quiet! Lets listen to our friends voice. If we miss this chance, we dont know when the next one will be.
Liao Wei walked out of the meeting room, his entire body covered in cold sweat.
He forced himself to calm down and slowly walked in the direction that Tiger pointed.
The lights in the corridors of this floor were all lit up, but now they were all off!
At the end of the corridor, beside the open window, stood a tall and straight figure.
In the darkness, his figure actually carried a strong killing intent, which made people inexplicably frightened!
It was a hot summer day, but Liao Weis hands and feet were cold and his body was stiff.
He was back, he was back ...
There was only one sentence in his mind.
Liao Wei had lived the life of a noble for seven years and had long forgotten his unbearable past. He felt that everything he had enjoyed would be his in the future!
He had thought that Jing Rui would die outside and nevere back.
His beautiful dream had shattered so quickly.
No, don t!
He didnt want to go back to the past!
He wanted to stay in family Jing! Enjoy all the glory and wealth!
Liao Wei strode forward and walked into the darkness step by step. He slowly walked to the back of the ck figure.
Liao Wei looked at the unmoving ck shadow. He seemed to bepletely defenseless and had his back to him, exposing his back.
The killing intent in his heart surged in an instant!
If he killed this person now, he would be able to rece him forever!
If this man died, everything in family Jing would be his.
In the darkness, an indifferent and cold voice suddenly sounded,You cant kill me, Liao Wei,
Liao Weis entire body trembled, and the exquisite and sharp Switzend army knife in his hand fell to the ground. It made a crisp pa sound in the dark night, as if mocking his ignorance of the immensity of heaven and earth.

Chapter 926: Let him be hospitalized
Trantor: 549690339
The corridor was dark, and only the window had a glimmer of light.
However, the light was blocked by Jing Rui, who was tall and strong. Liao Wei felt that he could only hide in the darkness forever.
Why?
Why did he have to live in the dark? he was clearly the one living in front of everyone!
Jing Rui was the one who lived in the dark!
Jing Rui, who was dressed in ck, turned around in the dark. Liao Wei was stunned when he saw his face.
The real Jing Rui actually looked so ordinary?
He did not look like Jing Yichen.
Poor Liao Wei did not know that Jing Rui was wearing a human-skin mask. He felt a sense of superiority when he saw Jing Ruis ordinary face.
Jing Rui immediately saw through Liao Weis thoughts, his pride, his killing intent, and his damn greed.
He looked indifferently at Liao Weis face, which was very simr to his own, and coldly broke Liao Weis sweet dream.You are just a substitute. Everything you are enjoying now belongs to family Jing. You dont need to meddle in any of thepanys Affairs in the future. Juste here and put on a show.
Liao Weis face was pale and his entire body was trembling. However, he was not frightened, but angry.
He felt that he was like a clown in front of Jing Rui, who could be taunted and manipted by him.
Before Jing Rui came back, he had been the Overlord of this ce. Everyone except Jing Yichen had to look up to him and respect him.
When Jing Rui came back, he was back to his original state.
He was shouting in his heart, he was not willing, but his face showed a humble smile,Yes, youre right, Im just a substitute. I was only acting to fool them, so dont take it to heart!
If Jing Rui had believed him, he would not have been able to survive until now.
The reason he appeared here today to meet Liao Wei was not to persuade him to put away those thoughts and turn over a new leaf. He did not have the time to do so.
He just wanted Liao Wei to be clear about his position and not use his name to ruin his reputation.
Because Liao Wei had done many things that would bring him endless trouble. Last year, he had even messed with a female star. If Jing Yichen had not helped him in time, he would have married her.
Female celebrities had a very high exposure rate. There would be countless paparazzi following them if they were involved with a celebrity. By then, the matter of a substitute was likely to be exposed.
Liao Wei was 21 years oldst year, but Jing Rui was only 18. If he messed around with a female star at 18, his reputation would be ruined.
Human greed was endless.
If Liao Wei were to be his substitute, he would be able to get a huge reward from the Jing n after the matter was over, enough for him to live afortable life.
But he wanted so much that he even wanted to kill Jing Rui. Jing Rui would never let such a person live.
It was just killing, and this was his strength.
So, Jing Rui only saw Liao Wei as a dead man.
His heart was as calm as an ancient well, and he walked past Liao Wei unhurriedly, still showing his back to him, as if he was not afraid that Liao Wei would kill him with a knife again.
Jing Rui nodded at Tiger and said,Uncle Hu, let him have a taste of his own medicine. Tell the public that Im sick and let him stay in the hospital for a while.
Tiger was overjoyed when he heard Jing Rui call him uncle Hu. He had not heard Jing Rui call him that for seven years.
His face revealed his signature simple and honest smile. Dont worry, young master. Hell definitely be seriously ill!
Jing Rui nodded and left in the elevator.
The conference room was buzzing like a pot had exploded.
Did you hear that? That friend of ours is really cold, just like the president! Im so excited!
His voice sounds like the president s! Cold and calm, I like it!
s, its a pity that its too dark outside and I cant see his face! What a pity!
Jing Rui knew that the 12 executives were eavesdropping, but he did not care if he was exposed. These people were all trustworthy and Jing Yichen had already checked their background.
What was more, A city was family Jings territory.
He could do anything without restraint. The forces of the assassin organization did not prate so deeply into A city. They were all superficial and easy to deal with.
However, Jing Rui did not know how much shock he had brought to the 12 of them. When they saw Jing Ruis substitute again, they were even more disdainful.
Jing Rui left Jingsheng enterprise and disappeared into the night with his equipment.
A hurricane had just died that night, and there would not be any more killers for the time being. The substitute was safe for the time being. Jing Rui had been protecting the substitute for the whole day, and it was finally time for him to go back and rest.
His residence was close to Jingsheng enterprise. It was a high-end apartment that Jing Yichen had found for him, so that he could protect his substitute whenever he went out.
The substitute was still very useful now, so he could not die. If he died, the killer organization would immediately transfer them back to North America.
Jing Rui had asked Tiger to put the substitute in the hospital not only to restrain him for a while, but also to protect him.
Otherwise, if the substitute ran around, he would have to chase and protect him with his sniper rifle.
It would be much easier to protect the substitute if he was admitted to the hospital.
The apartment had 20 floors and Jing Rui lived on the 19th floor. The 20th and 18th floors were empty and connected to the 19th floor, so that Jing Rui could hide at any time.
In order to protect Jing Ruis identity, the guards and the people in the monitoring room were all reced by Jing Yichens men.
Jing Rui could finally rx and have a good rest when he was back.
He went up to the 19th floor, took out the key, and opened the door. His body immediately tensed up.
Someone had been here!
Although the room did not seem to have changed much, some of the traps that Jing Rui had designed before he left had been triggered.
There were a few bookmarks on the ground at the entrance, but they were all gone! The vase on the coffee table in the living room was originally slightly tilted, but now it was ced straight! All the lights in the house were turned on, but the lights in the bathroom and study were turned off!
Jing Rui put down the box with the sniper rifle, took out a pistol, put on the silencer, and walked into the house quietly.
There was no one in the living room, the study, or the bathroom.
Jing Rui turned around and walked into the bedroom.
However, when he walked into the bedroom with his gun raised and saw the person sitting on the bed, he suddenly froze and shouted in disbelief,Mom?
Chapter 927
Chapter 927: Younger sister
Trantor: 549690339
Shangguan ning was a bit confused when she saw a tall and strange man walking in with a gun. But when she heard Jing Rui call her mom, she realized that this stranger was her son, whom she had been thinking about day and night.
Her tears fell immediately. She stood up and hugged Jing Rui.Ruirui!
She only shouted two words before she started crying uncontrobly.
Even if Jing Rui had changed a lot, even if he was not as tall as he had been when he left home seven years ago, even if he was full of killing intent, Shangguan ning knew that this tall young man was her son the moment she held him.
Jing Rui stiffened for a moment when Shangguan ning hugged him, but he quickly recovered.
For the past seven years, no one had hugged him like this. He did not allow anyone to touch him at all. Moreover, killers were merciless. Everyone was on guard against each other, so it was impossible for there to be any hugs.
No one could guarantee that they would not be killed after a hug.
However, the person in front of him was his mother who loved him the most, so he didnt have to resist.
Jing Rui put away the gun and patted Shangguan nings back with one hand, while he wiped her tears with the other.
He had seen his father coax his mother like this in the past. Although he wasnt very skilled, he wasnt inexperienced either because he could finally understand his fathers feelings now. Yingyings mother was the woman closest to them. He couldnt bear to let her cry, couldnt bear to let her be sad, and she was always giving silently. In her heart, she put him and her father first, and herselfst.
Shangguan ning couldnt help but cry even harder when her son tried to coax her like his husband.
Her Ruirui had really grown up!
However, in the seven years he grew up, she, his mother, was not by his side. She did not know how much he had suffered!
Jing Ruis clothes were soon soaked by his mothers tears. He felt warm inside and said with a smile,Mom, dont cry. You have to exin to me. Whats with the little girl on my bed?
Shangguan ning finally looked up from her sons chest. She wiped her tears and pulled her son to sit on the bed. Looking at the girl who was fast asleep, she said with a smile,Ruirui, this is your younger sister, Xixi.
Although Jing Rui had already guessed that the girl looked quite simr to her mother, he was still surprised to hear Shangguan ning admit it.
I have a younger sister?!
Why didnt anyone tell him about this?
During the past seven years, Jing Yichen had contacted him countless times, but he had never mentioned anything to him.
His father was covering it up really tightly! He must have done it on purpose!
Jing Xi had no idea that her brother was right beside her. She was sleeping soundly.
She had a fair face, delicate facial features, and long, soft hair. She not only looked like Shangguan ning, but also like Jing Rui. Jing Rui had a strange feeling when he saw her.
He had always been against people who looked like him, but when he saw that Jing Xi looked like him, he actually felt happy and proud!
Of course, Shangguan ning knew that her daughter and son looked alike. Seeing her son staring at her daughter, she couldnt help but smile.You like your sister? However, she doesnt like you much. She likes mu Sen and mu duo more.
He did not really like her. Jing Rui just felt that it was strange to have a sister.
As for whether his sister liked him or not, it didnt matter.
It was obvious that her sister had seen the substitute. The substitute could not have loved Jing Xi with all his heart. Children were the most sensitive. She could feel who loved her and who was perfunctory.
Shangguan ning didnt look at her daughter. All her attention was on her son, whom she had just met.
She looked at her sons face and her eyes turned red again. She knew that Jing Rui was wearing a skin mask, but he could change his facial features, but not his eyes.
Jing Ruis eyes were the same as Jing Yichen s, as deep as the stars in the night sky.
Jing Rui hesitated for a moment and wanted to take off his mask. It was rtively safe here, and no one would see his real face.
The human-skin mask was very thin and had glue. It was easy to wear, but it was very difficult to take it off. It needed to be washed with a special liquid medicine made by the killer organization. Moreover, once it was taken off, the mask would be useless.
Shangguan ning had learned about these secrets from Jing Yichen. She immediately stopped Jing Rui from taking off his mask.
Ruirui, dont take it off. Its fine as long as I know its you. I dont care what your face looks like.
She was afraid that Jing Rui would be in danger if he took off his mask, so she would rather her son talk to her with his mask on.
Your dad doesnt want us to stay for long, so your sister and I will leave in a while. I just missed you so much that I came to see you.
Shangguan ning said as she started to take off her sons clothes.
Jing Rui was startled and felt a little embarrassed. He said hurriedly,Mom, what are you doing?
Let me see if you have any injuries. Dont move. Didnt I always bathe you when you were young?
Shangguan ning still treated her son like a child, but Jing Rui did not. He pulled at his clothes and refused to let Shangguan ning take them off.
Im not injured, Im fine!
Shangguan ning didnt believe him and insisted on taking off his clothes.
The two of them pulled and quarreled endlessly, waking up Jing Xi who was sleeping.
The moment the little girl woke up, she saw her mother taking off a strange mans clothes. Her eyes widened and she cried out,Mommy, you dont want my daddy anymore?!
The mother and son who were tugging at each other suddenly stopped and looked at the bed at the same time.
Seeing her daughter awake and surprised, Shangguan ning chided her daughter,Xixi, dont talk nonsense. Hes your brother! He said.
My brother?! Jing Xis eyes widened.
Oh, I know. This is my real brother! She eximed.
Jing Rui was surprised that his sister knew about it. The next moment, he heard his sister say,But Why is my biological brother not as good looking as my bad brother? Mom, didnt you say that my brother is as handsome as dad? Whats with that look in your eyes!
Shangguan ning shook her head helplessly and exined to her daughter patiently,This isnt your brothers real face. Hes in a special situation right now. When your brotheres home, youll see what he really looks like.
Brother, did you get dozens of injections of hyaluronic acid on your face? Or was he wearing a mask? Or did she have stic surgery? Sigh, what a pity, I wont be able to see the handsome guy!
Jing Xi shook her head and sighed like an adult.
Jing Rui couldnt help but ask Shangguan ning,Mom, how old is Xixi this year?
Chapter 928
Chapter 928: A kiss from a younger sister
Trantor: 549690339
Shangguan ning understood what her son meant. She smiled and said,Your sister is six years old this year. Isnt she very smart?
You are smart, Jing Ruiughed.
If he wasnt smart enough, Jing Yichen wouldnt have told Jing Xi about the body double. He was so young that he could have easily let the cat out of the bag.
And judging from Jing Xis tone, she sounded very different from an ordinary child.
Jing Rui had met many children before, and he still felt that Jing Xis IQ was the closest to his.
However, she was a girl, so she seemed to be more lively and cute, not as cold as he was.
Jing Xi was happy to hear her brother praise her. She pouted and said,Brother, mom is talking about you at home every day. Why are you only home now? Everyone else has a brother and sister to y with, but I don t!
Jing Rui did not know what to say.
He was an indifferent person, and today was the first time he had met Jing Xi. Even if they were biological siblings, he could not get close to her in a short time. He did not expect Jing Xi to be so friendly. When she spoke to him, it felt so intimate, without any estrangement.
What Jing Rui did not know was that Jing Xi had been listening to Shangguan ning talking about him almost every day. Ever since she was five years old, she had found out that the brother she often saw was not her real brother. She had been waiting for him toe home every day. Now that her brother had finally appeared in front of her, she would have thrown herself into his arms if they were not strangers.
Jing Xi was indeed very smart and sensible. She was more like Shangguan ning than Jing Yichen.
She was the first girl of family Jing and was loved and doted on by the whole family. But she was never unruly and willful, except for acting coquettishly.
Her mother would often cry at home because she missed her brother, and she would act coquettishly to make her mother happy. Now that her brother was home, of course she had to take the opportunity to tell her brother how much her mother missed him.
When Im done with my business, Ill bring you out to y.
Jing Rui had no experience in ying with children. Jing Zhi used to follow him around shamelessly, not even letting him go when he was sleeping. But they were both boys at that time, and they were of the same age, so it was not like ying with children.
Now that he was asked to y with Jing Xi, he was a little helpless.
However, having a beautiful doll-like sister acting coquettishly with him was a rather novel experience.
Jing Xi nodded happily after her brother promised her. Then she urged Shangguan ning,Mom, its already sote. Didnt dad say not to let you stay for so long? Lets hurry home and let big brother rest.
Shangguan ning nodded quickly, but Jing Rui was dumbfounded.
This sister of his was just like a housekeeper!
The most surprising thing was that his mother was actually very obedient to his sister!
At home ... Would it be his younger sister who had the final say in the future?
The housekeeper Jing Xi was very happy today. She had finally seen her brother.
A biological brother was indeed different. He was much better than that substitute. At least, the way her brother looked at her was loving, unlike that substitute who always looked at her with a gloomy expression.
Big brother,e here.
Jing Xi waved at Jing Rui with a smile.
Jing Rui hesitated for a while, but still moved closer to his sister. Then, his face was kissed by his sister.
Jing Rui was frozen.
Jing Xi blinked her big innocent eyes and asked,Big brother, whats wrong?
Jing Rui finally came back to his senses and wiped his face ufortably.
He really wasnt used to being so close to anyone. He had been frozen even when Shangguan ning had held him. Now he felt that he didnt belong to himself anymore after being kissed.
He couldnt help but smile bitterly. When Jing Xi kissed him just now, he almost couldnt help but throw her out of the window.
He lowered his head to look at his mischievous sister. Suddenly, he reached out and ruffled her hair. He smiled and said,Clever!
The little girl clearly knew that he was ufortable, yet she still deliberately asked him what was wrong!
Jing Xi felt a little wronged. She didnt know that her brother was so unustomed to being touched. She rolled her eyes and pointed at her little face with a smile.Brother, the teacher said that its impolite not to reciprocate. I kissed you, so you should kiss me too!
Jing Rui froze again.
Tonight, he had lost count of how many times he had stiffened!
When he saw the slyness in Jing Xis eyes, he realized that he had been tricked by the little girl!
He had only teased others in his life, but he had never been teased by others!
For some reason, Jing Rui felt that the strangeness between him and his sister had disappeared.
A gentle smile appeared on his face as he lifted his sister up from the bed. He said to Shangguan ning,Mom, theres a Little Vixen in our house. You have to keep a close eye on her in the future. Otherwise, you might have a lot of son-inw!
Shangguan ning was so happy that her eyes turned into crescents. She was very happy to see that her son and daughter had be so close after only a short while.
As expected, they were blood-rted, and nothing couldpare to that. The substitute had not been treated well by Jing Xi for so many years, but Jing Ruis daughter had given him a kiss as soon as he came back.
Jing Xi had always had the ability to make others fall for her in a short time if she wanted to.
Shangguan ning took her daughter from her sons arms and couldnt help but kiss her daughters fair and tender face.
Their daughter was smart, smart, pretty, and cute. She was the happy one in the family.
Jing Xi was also smiling. She was a carefree little girl who didnt need her to inherit the Jing family. She had her father and brother to protect her on the outside and her mother to take care of her on the inside. She was an innocent girl.
Goodbye, brother. Ill wait for you toe home!
She did not have a deep rtionship with Jing Rui, so she said goodbye to him so quickly. But Shangguan ning could not bear to leave her son. She did not know when she would see him again after tonight.
Jing Rui saw that Shangguan nings eyes had turned red again and consoled her softly,Mom, dont worry. Ill be fine. Ill be home soon! She said.
He put his arms around Shangguan nings shoulders and walked the two most important women in his life to the door.
As soon as he opened the door, Jing Rui saw Jing Yichen who had been standing outside.
Dad!
Daddy!
Jing Rui and Jing Xi said at the same time.
Hearing his son and daughter calling him, Jing Yichens cold face showed a smile. He turned around and saw his wife looking at their son with red eyes.Ning, we cant stay here any longer. Its too dangerous. We have to go home.
Shangguan nings tears fell immediately. She made up her mind, turned around and left with her daughter in her arms.
Only the father and son were left at the door. Jing Yichen patted his sons shoulder and said calmly,Son, youre a man. Do what you want to do. Your mother and I will support you.
Jing Rui nodded.

Chapter 929: The person he wanted to kill was his brother!
Trantor: 549690339
After his parents left with his sister, Jing Rui calmed down and went to sleep.
He really needed to rest!
The next day, Jing Rui got up and had a simple breakfast that Jing Yichen had sent over. Then he started to deal with the affairs at hand.
He had been infiltrating the two major organizations. Even now, although he couldntpletely control the two major forces, it was rtively easy to get information.
When he saw that Andrew and North had fallen out, he couldnt help but smile.
When the cooperation between the two major organizations began to fall apart, he could take advantage of the situation.
However, the Virus Research Institute had sent a lot of people to A city to take Jing Zhi back.
Jing Rui sneered. These people would not be able to go back to A city!
The Virus Research Institute had abundant resources in all aspects and cooperated with the governments of many countries. However, in terms of fighting strength, they were thousands of miles away from the killer organizations.
When the killers came, Jing Rui had to deal with them personally. But when the people from the Virus Research Institute came, he did not need to do anything at all.
After he finished his work, Jing Rui changed into normal clothes and put on his hat before he went out.
The hypnotist wasing to A city today. He was cruel, but his hypnotism skills were unique. It was up to him whether Jing Zhi could recover his memory.
However, this man was too cunning and Jing Rui was worried about him. He needed to pressure him again, because he would have the hypnotist try to hypnotize Jing Zhi tonight.
The hypnotist was staying in the most luxurious five-star hotel in A city, which was a subsidiary of Jingsheng enterprise. Jing Rui was not worried about any idents.
The hypnotist had been forced toe to A city unwillingly, but he became obedient after seeing Jing Ruis cold face.
Jing Rui stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the luxury suite and looked at the magnificent sea view outside the window. He said calmly,
It seems that even a hypnotist has a bad memory. Your daughter is in my hands, and you still dare to look for my father. Do you think that you can live if you find my father? Youre not the only hypnotist. Dont challenge my bottom line!
The hypnotist was a little panicked. He had lived his entire life, but in the end, he had fallen into the hands of a brat who was not even twenty years old. This made him resentful and helpless.
Jing Rui was not human at all, and his ruthlessness was terrifying.
He had already seen through Jing Ruis ambition. He wanted to control the worldsrgest killer organization!
Crazy!
Others might not know, but he knew that the 22 Masters who had been killed by the killer organization in the past six months had all been killed by Jing Rui. It was all his acting!
So many people had died just so that Jing Zhi could return to A city and regain his memories.
The devil!
The hypnotist trembled in fear,No, no, no, Ray, youve misunderstood! I came to master Jing because I knew that he was your father. I just want to live! Didnt we already make an agreement? You said you would protect my daughter and not let her get hurt!
Jing Rui did not turn his head. He was still looking at the sea outside the window.
He stood tall and straight, and the side of his face behind the mask looked sharp and perfect. He wore a white shirt and ck pants, making him look noble and indifferent.
Yes, I promised to protect her and give her freedom in the future. However, the prerequisite was that you had to be obedient. Its obvious that youre the one who broke the agreement first. I think youve decided to give up on your daughters life, right?
No, no, absolutely not! The hypnotist broke out in a cold sweat. He was afraid that Jing Rui would kill his daughter. He could lose everything, but not his daughter!
Dont touch my daughter! I wont contact anyone else in the future. Ill do my best to help your friend recover her memory! Ive made a new breakthrough in my hypnotism recently!
Jing Ruis heart skipped a beat when he heard this, but he still looked indifferent.
That will depend on your performance tomorrow! Ill bring him here tomorrow. If he cant recover his memory, the sea outside will be your grave! Your daughter will alsoe to apany you.
Because it was not easy to hide during the day, most of the killers acted at night, and it was in the dead of the night when peoples defenses were at their lowest.
Jing Zhi picked up his equipment at the special contact point of the killer organization, changed into a ck suit, and began to follow and observe the target.
In the assassin organization, there were specialized intelligence personnel in charge of collecting information on the target and providing the targets approximate location.
Jing Zhi had received the informationst night that the target was at Jingsheng enterprise, and the information he received today was that the target was at the hospital.
Jing Zhi frowned.
Hospital?
He hated hospitals!
Moreover, the target would be better protected in the hospital, which was not conducive to killing.
Hurricane, who was ranked fourth, had already died. Jing Zhi didnt act rashly. He had already learned a lot about killing people and knew that he couldnt be too hasty.
However, when he was observing the surrounding terrain, he felt that family MUs Hospital, where his target was, looked very familiar.
Did hee here many times when he was young?
Jing Zhi smacked his head. It was a painful feeling to forget the past.
He shook his head and didnt dare to try hard to recall in case his headache acted up again. If his headache acted up again, he would be exposed.
After observing the terrain outside for a whole night, Jing Zhi had a rough n of retreat in mind. He changed into ordinary clothes and a blue baseball cap and went into the hospital.
After he was admitted to the hospital, Jing Zhi was even more certain that he had been here when he was young.
His memories were blurry, but Jing Zhis instincts told him that he was in an office. On the door te was the following: The chief doctor said, looking at Jing Yiran.
There was a picture of Jing Yiran in a white coat under the name.
Jing Zhi stood in front of the door and felt like he had returned to his childhood!
A child wasughing and calling out father over and over again!
He remembered this ce!
He had been here! He had been here countless times!
The words Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were scrawled on the office door.
In a sh, he finally remembered his name!
His name was Jing Zhi!
His name is not Sean!
No wonder!
No wonder he felt that the word Jing was so familiar! The Jing family, which had a high reputation, was his home! His surname was Jing!
No, wait!
Jing Rui?
Wasnt that the target he wanted to kill?
He looked at the two crooked names on the door and suddenly took off his gloves. The two light blue words appeared in front of him.
Brother!
The person he wanted to kill was his brother!
All the sounds around him disappeared, and all the figures retreated. His mind waspletely nk!
Chapter 930
Chapter 930: Old acquaintance
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi staggered backward.
He still could not remember the past, but he remembered who he was!
He was a member of the Jing family. How could he kill the heir of the Jing family, Jing Rui?
The killer organization and the Virus Research Institute must have known who he was. They had tried their best to erase his memory. One of them had used him as a virus test subject, while the other had used him as a killing machine to destroy family Jing.
What a ruthless heart!
No wonder the assassin organization sent him to carry out such a difficult mission this time, andpletely ignored the objection of the Research Institute!
He had already memorized all the information about family Jingst night.
Jing Rui was the only heir of family Jing.
There was no mention of Jing Zhi, who had been missing for many years, in the information.
Jing Zhi didnt know how long it took for him to regain his senses.
With his excellent hearing and vision, he quickly found Jing Ruis ward.
There were peopleing in and out of the ward from time to time. Jing Zhi could see through the gap of the door that the man lying on the bed looked exactly the same as the picture of the target sent by the killer organization.
Jing Zhi was hiding in the dark, but he was getting more and more confused.
In the past six months, he was very sure that his brother was by his side. Whenever he was in danger, he would always be able to escape. He even knew that when he fell into the sea, it was his brother who saved him.
The orange he was eating still had his brothers words carved on it!
If the person in North America was her brother, then who was this person in front of her?
Did he have two brothers?
That was impossible. The information did not mention that Jing Rui had other brothers.
Damn it! How good would it be if he didnt lose his memory!
He could not kill Jing Rui no matter what.
Before that, he had to retrieve his memories!
Jing Zhi was about to leave when a man and a woman came into his sight.
Both of them looked to be about 17 or 18 years old, and their appearances were simr to each other. At first nce, one could tell that they were brother and sister.
The young man was gentle and handsome. He was dressed in white and looked calm and steady.
The young girl had bright eyes and white teeth. She was pretty and cute. Her light yellow dress made her look like a little fairy who had walked out of a flower bush.
Even her voice was clear and melodious, as pleasant as an Oriole.
Brother, what illness does cousin have? Wasnt he always in good health? Why was he hospitalized?! And I heard from my father that hes going to stay here for a month? Are you preparing for your confinement?
Duoduo, dont be naughty! Shes already such a big girl, why is she still so unreliable? Cousin just came to the hospital to recuperate. Father said that he had suffered too many injuries in the past and had not recuperated well. Recently, he was too tired from managing thepany, so he fell ill.
The young man rebuked helplessly, but his tone was filled with an indescribable indulgence.
Duoduo?
Jing Zhi felt a sense of familiarity. He nced at the young mans namete. Mu Sen.
It was another familiar name.
However, Jing Zhi couldnt remember anything more than a little bit of familiarity.
However, it was a good thing to have a sense of familiarity!
This meant that he must have known these two people in the past!
Jing Zhi didnt move. He leaned against the wall and pretended to be a family member of another patient, listening to the two quietly.
Mu duos back was facing Jing Zhi and she didnt notice him at all. However, mu Sen saw Jing Zhi. Jing Zhi had changed so much in seven years and he was wearing a mask. Mu Sen couldnt recognize him at all.
Mu Sen only nced at Jing Zhi before he lowered his head and continued talking to his sister.
Have you finished all the homework Ive assigned you recently? Why was she at the hospital again? Youre going to have surgery in a few days. If you dont practice in school ande here, mom will deduct your allowance if she knows.
Aiya, big brother, if you dont say it, no one will know, right? I came to the hospital to see my cousin! Hes so busy all day long that I cant even see his shadow. Now that I finally have the chance to meet him, youre not allowed to tell on him! Cousins treating me more and more coldly now. Thest time I saw him was two months ago. He actually acted as if he didnt see me and was so arrogant! He didnt even give me a heads up. Im here to settle scores with him today!
Duoduo, dont mess around. Ever since Jing Zhi went missing, cousin has be apletely different person. He doesnt like to talk, so youd better not disturb him.
I wasnt the one who tied Jing Zhi up and sent him to those bad guys! Brother, Im not the one who made a mistake! I fought with Jing Zhi when I was little, but Ive never done anything to hurt him. That day ... When Zheng yuluo drugged Jing Zhi, I didnt participate!
I know, Duoduo. You didnt participate. However, you didnt save him. You didnt stop him even though you knew he was tied up by Zheng yuluo. Besides, I was the one who gave the pill to Zheng yuluo. Otherwise, Jing Zhi wouldnt have let others take advantage of him. If I hadnt given him the medicine, Jing Zhi might have been able to escape.
Big brother, how can I me you for that! You gave her the medicine for her to defend herself, not to harm others. Brother, dont me yourself. We were still young and didnt know anything. Even luoluo didnt know that it would cause such serious consequences ... Jingzhi ... Maybe he was fine and on vacation somewhere!
The brother and sister lowered their voices, but Jing Zhi could still hear them clearly.
He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cer!
This pair of brother and sister in front of him was actually rted to what had happened back then!
Who was Zheng yuluo?
That girl actually said that he was fine? Vacation? Sightseeing?
Jing Zhi smiled sadly.
No one knew what kind of hell he was living in!
No one could understand what kind of torture and pain he had suffered!
He had been searching for the reason for so many years, but he never knew why he had fallen into the hands of those pestilence fanatics. He never knew why his parents didnt want him anymore. It turned out that someone had personally buried him!
He had to find out the truth of what happened back then! Those who should go to hell, none of them could escape!
Jing Zhi stood there with a calm expression. No one knew what was going on in his heart.
He clenched his fists tightly and looked up, engraving the looks of the brother and sister in his heart.
Since they didnt care about his life and death, then he wouldnt care about their life and death!
Perhaps it was because Jing Zhis gaze was too cold, but mu Sen felt it and looked in the direction of the gaze.
Mu Sen was shocked to see Jing Zhis cold eyes and expression.
Mu duo saw that her brother was in a daze and didnt say anything. She couldnt help but follow her brothers gaze and look over.
Jing Zhi finally saw mu duos face. It was pretty, but ... It also made him want to destroy it!
He smiled coldly at the siblings, revealing his white teeth.You guys ... Dont die too early!
Chapter 931
Chapter 931: Suspicion
Trantor: 549690339
Mu duo was startled by Jing Zhis cold and sinister gaze. She couldnt help but take a step back.
Who are you? mu Sen frowned.
The person in front of him looked ordinary, but the killing intent he exuded made people very ufortable.
They didnt even know him, so why did he speak so harshly?
Jing Zhi didnt answer. He looked at them coldly and strode away.
After Jing Zhi left, mu duo finally recovered from his cold aura.
She stomped her feet in anger and said,brother, is this person crazy? Since when did our hospital be a mental hospital?
Mu Sen looked at Jing Zhis tall back, deep in thought.
He was a good-tempered person and did not want to get into a conflict with others for no reason. Heforted his sister,Alright, Duoduo, dont be angry. Didnt you want to go see cousin?
Mu duo was a little angry at being yelled at for no reason. However, she was indeed very scared just now and had forgotten to get angry. Even when she thought of the persons appearance just now, she still felt cold all over.
However, she had clearly not provoked anyone!
Ever since Jing Zhis disappearance, the Zheng sisters had been depressed for a long time, and even she had be more honest. She didnt do anything out of line, except for making fun of others asionally.
She used to hate Jing Zhi, but he was a human life!
After Jing Zhi went missing, Jing Yiran went to the Zheng family and almost burned them down. If his father, Mu Qing, had not stopped him, Jing Yiran would have killed the twins.
Mu duo shook her head and dispelled the fear she had for Jing Zhi. She took her brothers arm and went to see Jing Rui with him.
When she entered the ward, her cousin, who was lying on the bed, didnt look sick at all, except for his face.
Mu duo could not help but ask, cousin, where are you feeling unwell? How did he end up in the hospital?
Liao Wei was half-imprisoned in the hospital and was in an extremely bad mood. His face was cold and he didnt bother with mu duo at all.
But then he thought about it again. He used to be cold to everyone and distant to make himself look like Jing Rui. Now that no one suspected that he was not Jing Rui, why not take the opportunity to win over his own power?
Now, a lot of things in family Jing were controlled by him, and Jing Rui was not in A city. Even if he came back in the future, Jing Rui would not be able to take back his power and assets if he did not give them up.
No one could tell who was real and who was fake!
Of course, the premise was that Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning had to keep their mouths shut forever.
At the thought of this, Liao Wei turned to look at the youthful mu duo.
The young girls skin was fair and wless, her facial features were exquisite, her figure was slender, and her legs were long and straight.
She was really a stunner!
Eighteen years old was the most beautiful age for a girl!
Liao Wei swallowed a mouthful of saliva and suppressed the evil fire in his lower abdomen. He said indifferently, Ive been in poor health recently. Ill be staying in the hospital for a while.
Mu duo was instantly overwhelmed by the unexpected favor. Surprised and overjoyed, she went up and hugged Liao Weis arm.Cousin, youre willing to talk to me now?!
Jing Rui had not seen her since Jing Zhi went missing. He would only say yes when he spoke to her, as if he hated her. She had never expected that he would be willing to talk to her today.
Liao Weis arm was held by mu duo, and he could feel her soft and warm hands.
He was twenty-two years old this year and he had been a substitute for family Jing since he was fifteen. He had not touched a single female fly, let alone a woman.
There were so many women throwing themselves at him, but he could only push them away with a cold face!
He couldnt touch women, and he was still a Virgin at the age of 22. If he wanted a woman, he could only solve it himself. This kind of grievance had almost tortured him to death!
He actually reacted immediately when mu duo touched him!
However, he couldnt do anything. He couldnt even enjoy that kind offort that made him want to flirt.| The feeling of humming!
Liao Wei looked at mu duo coldly.
Mu duo immediately let go of her hand in embarrassment. She was too happy just now and forgot that her cousin didnt like other people touching him.
Cousin, dont be angry. I didnt do it on purpose. I was just too happy!
Liao Wei was so aggrieved that he almost suffered an internal injury, but he could only show his displeasure on his face and coldly replied,yes.
He could not change too much at once, or it would be too suspicious. He had to take it one step at a time, so that the people around him would be loyal to him and be the biggest help to him in bringing down Jing Rui!
Mu Sen also felt Liao Weis change today, but he was not as innocent as mu duo. He felt that everything that happened today was inexplicably strange!
He did not miss the surprise in Liao Weis eyes and also noticed that Liao Wei had been staring at his sisters chest for a full three seconds!
Mu Sens heart was full of doubts. How could the Jing Rui He knew be staring at a womans chest? Moreover, he was staring at his cousins chest!
As an older brother, he had a subconscious need to protect his younger sister.
Mu Sen had grown up with his sister and treated her like a treasure. If the person in front of him was not Jing Rui, he would have given him a shot without hesitation.
He wanted to take his sister away, but when she saw that Jing Rui was willing to talk to her, she refused to leave and insisted on staying with her cousin.
Mu Sen did not dare to leave on his own, so he stayed in the ward to apany her.
By the time the sky turned dark, his heart had already turned cold.
He suspected that the Jing Rui in front of him was a different person.
How could he be so patient with his sister and let her stay here for a few hours? This was not Jing Ruis style at all!
Jing Rui was the kind of person who would not say a word.
When he was young, he was so busy that he was nowhere to be seen. He had to learn all kinds of knowledge. There was no reason for him to have the time to recuperate here when he grew up!
No, he might be able to recuperate, but it would definitely not be so easy! Even if he was recuperating, he would seize the time to study and deal with all kinds of Affairs at the same time!
Mu Sen knew that something was definitely wrong, but he could not tell what went wrong.
Jing Zhi sneaked into the Zheng familys Vi at night.
It was easy for an assassin to find out about Zheng yuluo.
He only needed to provide a little information, and a few minutester, he received the information from the killer organization.
Furthermore, he had also bought the relevant information on mu Sen.
By now, he had all the information about family Jing, family mu, and family Zheng.
Jing Zhi was a little surprised when he saw Zheng yuluos photo provided by the killer organization.
Wasnt this girl the student who had wanted to draw his blood but was kicked out of the window by him?
Chapter 932
Chapter 932: The killer mo Mei dies!
Trantor: 549690339
This Zheng yuluo actually had a twin sister!
Zheng Yuwei, Zheng yuluo ...
These two names were faintly familiar to him!
But Jing Zhi had no memory of what they looked like or what they had done.
Jing Zhi didnt know if the girl he had kicked out of the window that day was Zheng yuluo or Zheng Yuwei.
The intelligence Agency set up by the assassin organization in A city had collected information that the two sisters were still alive!
He actually didnt die!
What a lucky life!
However, it didnt matter. He would just attack again!
Its just killing people, simple!
Unfortunately, Jing Zhi wanted to kill them, but the Zheng sisters werent home.
The intelligence showed that both of them were in city A, but they were not at home. Where could they be?
Jing Zhi didnt have to wait long before he received thetest news from the intelligence Agency. The twins were visiting Jing Rui at family MUs Hospital.
Jing Zhi frowned. Were the two sisters close to Jing Rui?
What exactly happened seven years ago?
He looked at the childhood photo of the two sisters hanging in the living room of the Zheng family. He felt familiar and disgusted.
Those two beautiful faces that were exactly the same actually made him feel that there was not the slightest sense of beauty!
He casually tore off a photo of the two sisters when they were young and put it in his pocket. He returned to the hospital, his body cold.
Jing Zhi stood outside Jing Ruis ward and could hear the conversation inside.
Brother Rui, when can you be discharged?
In a month.
You wont find us annoying if my sister and Ie here often, right?
No need toe.
Brother Rui, are you ... Still angry with us? Her sister had already tormented herself for seven years. Wasnt that enough? Shes been looking for ...
Wei Wei, stop!
Sister! I ...
Alright, lets not disturb young master Jings rest. Lets go home.
Soon, two girls who looked very simr came out and ran into Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei were stunned at the same time.
Jing Zhi nced at the long-haired girl on the left and asked,Zheng yuluo?
Before Zheng yuluo could answer, the short-haired Zheng Yuwei immediately pulled her sister behind her and looked at Jing Zhi warily.Who are you?
Jing Zhi didnt use the mask he usually wore when he came to A city for a mission. He was wearing a brand new mask, so Zheng yuluo didnt recognize him.
However, Jing Zhis voice, figure, and aura were all very familiar to her.
She was sure that she had never seen this strange man before, but she was born with a keen sense of danger, and she could already feel the murderous intent from Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo quickly pulled her sister back and looked up at Jing Zhi. She said quietly,I am.
Jing Zhi stared at her for a while.
She had long, smooth, and soft ck hair, long and thick eyshes, dreamy eyes, a small, upturned nose, and cherry-like red and full lips. She was a ssic beauty.
Moreover, unlike her younger sister, she had a unique temperament that was gentle yet sad, sad yet strong.
Jing Zhi reached out and pinched Zheng yuluos delicate chin.
The delicate and smooth touch made his heart tremble slightly. Before he could carefully appreciate the beauty of a young girl, Zheng Yuweis ear-piercing scream rang in his ear,Bastard! Let go of my sister! I ...
Before she could finish her sentence! Jing Zhi kicked her out of the room.
If his guess was correct, it was these two sisters who had sent him to hell seven years ago!
No matter how beautiful they were, no matter how young and ignorant they were, his heart would not have a trace of softness.
In the Assassins dictionary, there was no such word as soft-hearted!
Zheng Yuwei had studied in the military school for a year and suffered countless hardships. Her results were also very outstanding. She had never thought that she would be kicked away by someone, and she did not even have the strength to resist!
This proved that the difference in their strength was like heaven and earth!
She screamed and fell on the hard ground in pain. Blood flowed from the corner of her lips and she fainted unwillingly.
Zheng yuluo didnt panic or struggle when Jing Zhi pinched her chin. But when she saw her sister was injured and unconscious, her eyes immediately turned red and she screamed in pain,Weiwei!
She struggled to break free from Jing Zhis grip and go to see her sister.
But Jing Zhi didnt let her go. Instead, he pushed her against the wall.
The two of them were pressed tightly together in an ambiguous position. There was no gap between them.
Let me go!
Zheng yuluo reached out to hit him, but her strength was too weakpared to Jing Zhi s. As soon as she reached out, Jing Zhi caught both her hands.
She burst into tears and stared at Jing Zhi with hatred.Who are you? Why are you targeting me and my sister!
Zheng yuluo panicked when her sisters life was in danger. She screamed for help, but Jing Rui and his bodyguards did note out to check, as if they had heard nothing.
What was going on?
Did Jing Rui hate her that much? He hated her so much that he could ignore her and her sisters life and death?
She struggled in despair, but it was all in vain!
Jing Zhis expression was sinister. Heughed coldly and loudly.Hahaha, good question! Who am I? Thanks to you, I dont even know who I am now!
He pulled Zheng yuluo away from the wall and then chopped her on the back of her neck.
Zheng yuluo fell into Jing Zhis arms before she could think about the meaning of Jing Zhis words.
Jing Zhi threw her on the ground without any pity. He grabbed her cor and dragged her towards Zheng Yuwei. He wanted to find a safe ce with the two sisters and ask them about what happened back then.
The phone in his pocket vibrated, reminding Jing Zhi of thetest news from the killer organization.
In the process of a killers mission, a killer organization usually would not easily send a message to the killer. However, there was only one exception when a killer died.
Did someone else die?
Jing Zhi threw Zheng yuluo to the ground and took out his phone. He unlocked it with his fingerprint, and a string of codes appeared on the screen.
The code meant that the mission had failed, and the killer mo Mei had died!
This was impossible!
Jing Zhis eyes widened in shock. He was still alive!
At the same time, a strange light shed through the corridor window.
As an assassin, Jing Zhi was very familiar with the light. It was the reflection of the scope when a sniper was aiming.
A secondter, he saw the bullet tear through the air and shoot into Jing Ruis ward.
There was a shrill scream in the ward!
Jing Zhis heart skipped a beat. He turned around and ran into the ward.Big brother!
A faint, familiar yet strange voice suddenly came from behind him.Ah Chi, youre calling me?
Chapter 933
Chapter 933: Yes, I am Jing Rui
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi turned around!
A familiar, masked face came into his sight.
Lightning! Jing Zhis pupils shrank.
I am, Jing Rui replied with a smile.
What did you just call me?
I call you ah Chi, because mo Mei is already dead.
Jing Zhi pulled out his gun and pointed it at Jing Rui. He asked in a sharp tone,Who are you?
When carrying out a mission outside, killers would not meet in private at all. Everyone was busy with their own work, and it was absolutely impossible for them to form a team.
Lightning was ranked number one. They had trained together before, and Jing Zhi knew that he was very strong.
Moreover, so many iprehensible things had just happened that he had subconsciously chosen to protect himself.
Jing Rui was not displeased that his brother was pointing a gun at him. He looked at the unconscious twins and said softly,Theyre quite efficient. They found the two of them so quickly.
Jing Zhi didnt dare to rx. Everything that had happened today was so strange that he was on guard.
Wasnt Jing Rui protected by many people in the ward?
Why was it that after the gunshot, he kept screaming in pain and desperately calling for the doctor, but no one came?
Were all the doctors and nurses dead in such a big hospital?
Jing Rui seemed to be annoyed by the noise inside. He said calmly,Hanfeng, make him shut up.
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a heavy blow came from the ward, and then there was dead silence.
Jing Zhis mind was shaken. He blurted out,You were the one who shot him just now?!
Yes, Jing Rui nodded. Do you have any more questions? If you don t, lets go!
Where are we going?
Lets go home.
I dont have a home!
No, youve already found it.
My death was your doing? It was hard to believe, but none of it made any sense. Jing Zhi couldnt think of any other possibility for lightning to be so confident.
Yes. Jing Ruis cold face had a touch of gentleness.I have been waiting for this day for seven years! Its a littlete, but Ive finally brought you back!
This is impossible!
Jing Zhi couldnt believe that there was a problem with the system of the killer organization.
He was imnted with a life-sensing chip. Unless he was really dead, the assassin organization would know that he was still alive through the chip!
But now, the word dead had appeared on the phone!
Furthermore, what did lightning mean when she said that he had been waiting for this day for seven years?
Jing Rui himself knew how incredible it was. He had spent a lot of manpower and resources to crack the secret of the chip of the killer organization. All the profits of Jingsheng enterprise had been used to crack the chip.
Theres no need to doubt it. My people hacked into all the systems of the assassin organization, so they tampered with your life status. Just now, my men fired at the ward to fool people. The information from the killer organization will be that you shot Jing Rui and then were killed by his men.
Jing Rui said as he took out some medicine and dripped it on his face. The mask started to separate from his skin.
Jing Zhis eyes widened in shock.
Lightning was going to take off his mask and show him his true face!
An Assassins true appearance was not known to anyone except for a few higher-ups in the assassin organization. This was the top secret of the assassin organization and also the biggest secret of an assassin!
Jing Zhi was confused, nervous, and on guard.
His mind went nk when he saw Jing Ruis face under the mask.
The man in front of him looked very simr to his target, Jing Rui.
Y-y-you ... You are ...
Yes, I am Jing Rui.
No! The one inside ...
The one inside is just a substitute.
Jing Zhi swallowed with difficulty. He found that he hadpletely lost the ability to think.
Why should I believe you!
Ah Chi, Ive been by your side for the past seven years. Didnt you notice?
He had noticed it!
Of course, he had noticed it!
He only felt that this matter was too unbelievable!
His brain was not working properly and was in aplete mess!
Although the Virus Research Institute is harder to control than the killer organization, its still possible for me to nt a few people to take care of you. Doesnt Peter look like its easier to talk to? Does Shuyin prepare the freshest oranges for you every day?
Jing Rui looked at Jing Zhis shocked face and smiled.I know. Although Ive reminded you to peel an orange, youve never listened.
Also, Im your older brother. The one in the ward only looks a little like me. Next time, dont call the wrong person.
Jing Zhi stared at the tall man in front of him in a daze. He felt like he was in a dream, and everything he had experienced was so unreal.
If you still have any doubts, we can do a DNA test in the future. However, the most important thing now is to help you recover your memories. Ive found the best hypnotist in the world. Perhaps it will be of some use. If the hypnotism is effective, then theres no need for a DNA test.
Jing Rui turned around and strode away.
His voice traveled through the air and reached Jing Zhis ears. Im waiting for you at the huaguan hotel in A city. The room number is 2201. I hope you wont keep me waiting for too long.
Jing Zhi felt empty inside as he watched the man, who was most likely his brother, slowly disappear from his sight.
He stood there for a long time without moving.
It took a long time for Jing Zhi toe back to his senses.
He took a deep breath and strode out of the hospital, not caring about the unconscious twins on the ground.
For the past seven years, he had been searching for the truth of the past. Now, the truth was only one step away from him. He would not give up because of fear.
Moreover, he did not sense any danger from Jing Rui.
Jing Rui was waiting patiently in the hotel room.
He knew that Jing Zhi woulde back.
Although Jing Zhi had many doubts, he was sure that deep down in his heart, he already had a certain answer. His surname was Jing.
The night was already veryte.
The hypnotist had been on tenterhooks the entire night, waiting for the most important patient he had ever had.
At oneo clock in the morning, a tall figure quietly appeared in the dark room.
Ah Chi, youvee.
After a short silence, Jing Zhis slightly hoarse voice rang out in the room.Brother, is it really you? Dont lie to me, Im very scared.
Jing Rui stood up and walked to his brother. He looked at Jing Zhi, who was taller than him, and coaxed him, just like when they were young. Dont be afraid. Im here. Ill always be here.
Chapter 934
Chapter 934: The daughter of the hypnotist
Trantor: 549690339
A top-notch hypnotist could easily make a person fall into a deep sleep. He could also make a person recall certain scenes in the past while they were half-awake.
However, Jing Zhi had taken anti-hypnosis courses before, so the hypnotists hypnosis process didnt go smoothly.
He had to hypnotize her many times before he could see the results.
Jing Rui had been by Jing Zhis side the whole time. He heard Jing Zhi call him brother in a daze and saw the word in Jing Zhis palm.
His eyes were slightly red.
He had wasted seven years in the killer organization and suffered seven years, but he had never regretted it.
At this moment, he was very grateful for his choice back then.
He could take his time to learn everything else and hand over the family assets to someone else. The only thing he couldnt wait for was to save Jing Zhi.
In the beginning, he didnt have enough power to infiltrate the two forces, so he couldnt tell which one was Jing Zhi.
In the first two years, he and Jing Zhi had suffered great pain. It wasnt until his power had gradually grown that they had recovered.
And today, it was finally time for him to take revenge on those people!
In North America, the luxuriously decorated and strictly managed headquarters of the Virus Research Institute was in an uproar when they received the news of Jing Zhis death.
Their Virus Research was at a critical stage, and if they lost Jing Zhi, all their efforts in the past seven years would go to waste.
Their gic modification n would bepletely cut off, and their losses would be incalcble!
Therge amount of money invested by the governments of various countries had gone to waste, and their Research Institute had to bear the anger of more than a dozen powerful countries.
Everyone in the Research Institute was panicking. Shuyins face was full of panic and uneasiness, but her heart was calm and calm.
She was even a little happy.
Was this crazy virus cage finally going to copse?
Then, did this mean that she was free?
Her Boss had promised her that as long as Jing Zhi could return to A city safely, her mission would beplete.
She had not seen the outside world for a long time!
She hade to the Virus Research Institute when she was very young. Because of her special talent in gic inheritance and virus separation, she had survived in fear.
They had to deal with viruses every day, and many doctors and researchers died from viral infections.
All the doctors would use weak children for their experiments. All the children who grew up in the Research Institute were experimental subjects, including Jing Zhi and her.
However, she and Jing Zhi seemed to be quite lucky. Although the virus was still in their bodies, they had survived.
Shuyin was a little envious that Jing Zhi had been brought home by her Boss.
She did not have a home.
Even if the Virus Research Institute really fell apart, she had nowhere to go.
Jing Zhi was so lucky to have a brother like his Boss to take care of and protect him.
Although she was envious, Shuyin wasnt discouraged.
There was no love without reason in this world. Although she had never left the Research Institute and had never seen her Boss, she knew that her Boss and Jing Rui must have been very Good Brothers when they were young. Otherwise, Jing Zhi would not have tattooed the word brother on his own palm when he had lost his memory.
Shuyin was 18 years old this year, and she had been in the Virus Research Institute for a full ten years!
The fact that she was able to survive in the cannibalistic Research Institute was enough to prove that she had a strong will and tenacity. She had turned from an experimental subject to an aplished doctor step by step. Her research and understanding of viruses had already exceeded imagination.
In the past two years, her status had been greatly improved because she had joined Jing Rui. She knew a lot of confidential information about the virus Research Institute, which she had reported to Jing Rui in secret.
Virus Research was boring, so many male doctors and researchers would often find women to vent their sexual desires.| Wang.
Shuyin didnt have any background or support in the Research Institute. She was also a rare Asian girl in the Research Institute. She had ck hair and ck eyes, and her skin was as white as snow. She was obviously different from Western women, so she naturally became the target of many men.
The main reason she had chosen to rely on Jing Rui was that she could no longer protect herself and had to find a strong backer.
In fact, many people in the Research Institute had sided with Jing Rui, the Boss who had never shown his face. It was Peter who had advised her to side with Jing Rui.
Shuyin had been afraid that Jing Ruis side was also a Wolfs Den, but she gradually realized that although this Boss was ruthless, he did not seem to be interested in women, and did not need women to sacrifice their bodies in exchange for information.
So, she had been taking care of Jing zhichen, both in the open and in the dark. That was her only task.
The secrets that she had stolen were all gifts that she had given to Jing Rui in return.
After all, the more valuable she was, the lower the chances of her being abandoned.
The cruel living environment had long given Shuyin extraordinary maturity and shrewdness. In this ce, if one was simple and kind, then there was only one oue-a tragic death.
The Research Institute and the killer organization were locked in a fierce fight. The senior executives of both sides were almost crazy, constantly ming and attacking each other.
Their cooperative rtionship had directly copsed!
However, after only a few hours, the two sides actually stopped fighting!
They had joined forces again!
Shuyin soon got the results of the Alliance. They had sent enough people to kill their way to A city.
She took the risk to get the list of people from the Research Institute who were going to A city and submitted it to Jing Rui immediately.
In A city, the sky was slightly bright, and the darkness was gradually fading. The soft sunlight reflected into the luxury suite of the hotel.
Jing Rui looked at the long list of names that Shu Yin had sent him and could not help but smile coldly.
Moving so quickly, were they all rushing to their deaths?
Seven years ago, when they had taken Jing Zhi away, he had beenpletely suppressed by the two forces.
But now, he was no longer a twelve-year-old child!
He gave Shuyin a series of instructions, and in the end, he sent another instruction: Youll be free after this.
Jing Rui looked at the hypnotist who was still hypnotizing Jing Zhi.
This hypnotists surname was Shu!
He hoped that Shuyin would never know that her father was still alive in this world. It would be best if she didnt know that her father was going to die in his hands.
Otherwise, he would have to kill this young girl.
If she didnt do anything, he would let her live. After all, she had taken care of Jing Zhi for so long and secretly changed his medicine so that he could recover.
The hypnotist seemed to have sensed something and looked up at Jing Rui.
You promised me not to kill my daughter. You promised to take good care of her!
After a moment of silence, Jing Rui said,As long as shes honest, I can promise you that I wont kill her.

The hypnotist did not trust Jing Ruis promise.
He was a killer who regarded human lives as nothing. He made a living by harvesting lives and finding out the secrets in the depths of peoples hearts.
In his eyes, Jing Rui was an even more ruthless killer than he was. Unless it was someone Jing Rui really cared about, he would not care about the life and death of others.
The hypnotist looked at the drowsy Jing Zhi and suddenly made up his mind.No, this wont do! My daughters safety cant be guaranteed in the future. You cant just promise me!
Jing Rui looked at the hypnotist coldly and called out his real name.Shu Chengshan, you have no right to negotiate with me!
When Shu Chengshans real name was called out, he was slightly shocked.
This name had not been called by anyone for more than a decade!
He was a natural hypnotist. When he was young, he learned a little from his master and could easily hypnotize people with weak willpower.
He loved money a lot and used hypnosis to steal a lot of money.
Later on, his hypnotism skills became more and more brilliant, and finally, someone paid arge sum of money to hire him to hypnotize someone to death.
The employers price was too high, and he couldnt help but be tempted. So, he began to walk the path of an assassin.
However, thews in China were strict. He had vited thew and was sentenced to death.
With the help of his master, he had sneaked abroad.
In order to survive, he kept hypnotizing all kinds of people and became a multi-millionaire step by step through robbery.
The name Shucheng mountain represented his past, his unbearable past, and his most precious memory.
This was because when he was still in the country, a foolish woman was pregnant with his child. She clearly knew that he was an executioner and not a good person, but she still insisted on giving him a daughter.
He had never married a wife in his life, but he treated that silly woman as his wife forever.
It was a pity that her enemy had found her and killed her cruelly.
When he got home, he only saw his wifes cold body and his daughter, who was hidden in the closet.
Shu Chengshan knew that he was cruel. He never considered the feelings of others when he killed others. However, he was cruel to others, but he loved his wife and daughter very much!
His wife had died with her eyes wide open, leaving behind an infant daughter. He swore to avenge his wife.
However, it was too inconvenient for him to bring his daughter alone, and it was easy for his enemies to target his daughter.
That was why he was so cruel to send his daughter to an orphanage. Later, he even personally sent her to the Virus Research Institute to be isted from the world. Even the killer organization could not infiltrate and no one could find his daughter.
However, what Shu Chengshan didnt expect was that he had personally sent his daughter into the fire pit!
He thought that with his best friends protection, his daughter would definitely be able to grow up safely in the Research Institute.
However, with his extremely high IQ and hypnotism skills, he made a mistake!
The so-called brothers were simply unreliable. His daughter had suffered so much in the Research Institute, but as her father, he could not save her at all.
It was not until he met Jing Rui that he had a glimmer of hope that his daughter would regain her freedom.
Now, he could not let this glimmer of hope be destroyed! He wanted to catch it!
If her daughter had someone as powerful as Jing Rui to protect her, she would not have to live in misery anymore.
She would be able to live a carefree life!
He looked at Jing Rui and said seriously,I have nothing to say if you want to kill me. After all, I wanted to kill you first. However, I want to exchange a piece of information for my daughters happiness!
What news? Jing Ruis face was cold.
You have to promise me that youll marry my daughter, and Ill tell you the news!
Jing Rui felt as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Was this Shu Chengshan out of his mind?
Even his parents had given him full autonomy over his marriage. He could choose his wife, but Shu Chengshan actually wanted to interfere in his marriage and make him marry Shuyin!
He had contacted Shuyin many times, but he had never seen her before! He had not even heard her voice before!
He would not marry a woman he had never met, let alone Shucheng Shan!
Jing Rui sneered.Shucheng Shan, you are really greedy. You want your daughter to be thedy of family Jing, so that all the assets of family Jing will belong to you, dont you?
Shu Chengshan valued money as much as his life. He was not embarrassed at all when Jing Rui saw through him.
Thats right, I just want my daughter to enjoy wealth and glory! The child she will have in the future will have the surname Jing, not Shu. Your familys money will still belong to you. Im just looking for a strong backing for my daughter!
This is impossible!
He wanted Shuyin to give birth to his child?
Shuyin had lived in the Virus Research Institute for so long, and there were many viruses lurking in her body. Whether she could have a child was still a question!
Besides, he didnt want to touch any woman.
As I said, as long as your daughter is well-behaved, I will naturally let her live a peaceful life. No matter what information you have, I dont need it!
No matter how important the information was, Jing Rui would never agree to exchange it for his wifes position.
Moreover, just like how Shu Chengshan didnt trust him, he didnt trust Shu Chengshan either!
Shu Chengshan was an old fox. He pretended to be so good in front of him, looking so sincere and honest, but in fact? Shu Chengshan had been trying to contact the outside world and wanted to kill him!
It would be toote if Shu Chengshans information was false and he tricked him into walking into the trap.
Shu Chengshan loved his daughter very much, but what did this have to do with him, an outsider?
If Shuyin tried to take revenge in the future! Then the debt of taking care of Jing Zhi would be written off! He had protected her for so long anyway, and he had never owed her anything!
Shucheng Shan, dont y any tricks. Youd better do your job. If the person beside you hasnt recovered her memory, you and your daughter can go to the underground!
Ray, my information is really valuable! If you dont listen, youll regret it!
Shu Chengshan did not expect Jing Rui to reject him so decisively. He was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat.
You havent seen my daughter yet, have you? Its not toote to make your decision after youve seen her!
It doesnt make a difference whether I see her or not. Give up, I wont marry her.
His wifes beautiful face appeared in Shu Chengshans mind and he said softly,No, my daughter is very beautiful. She looks like her mother. Youll definitely like her ...
Shut up and continue with the hypnosis. Thats the only value of your life.
I will definitely do my best to help him recover his memory, but ...
Jing Rui was on the verge of breaking down! Why was Shu Chengshan so talkative!
Could that Shuyin be a Chatterbox like her father?

Chapter 936: Recovery of memory

If you speak again, Ill make your daughter mute! Jing Rui interrupted Shu Chengshan and could only threaten him with Shuyin.
If it were not for the fact that Shucheng mountain was still useful to Jing Rui, Jing Rui would have knocked him out.
No one had ever dared to pester him like this!
Shu Chengshan was not afraid of death, but he loved his daughter the most. Hearing this, he did not dare to speak again.
The sky gradually brightened, and the sun was very bright.
Jing Zhi woke up from a deep sleep. He felt as if he had just had a long dream, and many scenes from the past shed before his eyes.
The memories came back. Although they were still a little broken and he couldnt remember everything, the recovered part of his memory was enough for Jing Zhineng to sort out some things.
At the very least, he remembered what his parents looked like and who he had known.
Jing Rui saw that Jing Zhi had woken up and was silent. He asked worriedly,Ah Chi, did you remember anything?
If Jing Zhi couldnt remember anything, he would have to ask Jing Zhi to do a DNA test with Jing Yiran himself. Otherwise, there would be no way to prove that they were rted.
Jing Zhi raised his head and looked at the almost perfect cold face. He suddenlyughed when he thought of Jing Rui when he was young.Brother, you look exactly the same as when you were young!
Jing Rui heaved a sigh of relief. The hypnotism of Shucheng mountain had worked!
Shu Chengshan was also relieved. He had always been confident in his ability to hypnotize people, but his confidence had beenpletely destroyed after meeting Jing Rui. He had been worried for a long time that he would not be able to hypnotize Jing Zhi.
Fortunately, Jing Zhi was not as cautious as Jing Rui. He trusted Jing Rui and opened his mind when he was hypnotizing Jing Rui, which was why he was sessful.
Ray, Ive done what I promised you. Hes recovered his memory! Then youll be responsible for protecting my daughter in the future!
Jing Rui was in a good mood after Jing Zhis memory was restored. He replied to Shu Chengshan,Alright!
Shucheng Shans mission waspleted and he was taken away from the hotel by Jing Ruis men.
Only the two brothers were left in the room.
Big brother, I ... Actually, I only remember a little. I dont remember much.
Do you remember me?
I remember! Jing Zhi nodded immediately.
Thats good,Jing Rui smiled.
A hypnotist wasnt omnipotent. He only acted as a guide to make the person with amnesia remember what they had forgotten. He couldnt make people remember everything. He could only make Jing Zhi remember the most familiar and profound images.
Big brother, Im hungry ...
Although Jing Zhi was reminded of the past, it had been seven years since he hadst seen Jing Rui. He was a little embarrassed to say that he was hungry.
However, he had not eaten for a day and a night. He was famished.
Jing Rui took out his cell phone, dialed a number and gave some simple instructions. Then, someone brought in all kinds of food.
Eat it. Ive already prepared it for you.
Jing Zhi nced at the food and found that it was all his favorite.
He loved to eat beef, sweet food, and oranges, but he had never told anyone about his preferences. He had also been very careful not to let anyone find out about his preferences. Even if there were vegetables and the like that he didnt like during his meals, he would eat them all.
However, Jing Rui knew all about his preferences.
He nowpletely believed that the person in front of him was his brother, and the one in the hospital must be a substitute!
Jing Zhi kept stuffing food into his mouth with his right hand. He felt less hungry after a while and extended his left hand to Jing Rui.Brother, Im smart, right? Ive engraved these two words on my palm, so Ive always remembered that I had an older brother!
Seeing his brothers carefree attitude, Jing Ruis heart ached.
He knew that Jing Zhi must have realized that he had forgotten a lot of things and was afraid that he would forget his brother as well. That was why he was using this method to remember.
This was undoubtedly the most painful method.
The pain of stabbing words into the palm of ones hand was something that ordinary people could not bear. Besides, Jing Zhis body was very resilient. These words would have to be repeated many times before they could be left behind.
He couldnt imagine how much the young Jing Zhi wanted to remember him. That was why he had to repeatedly write on his palm and experience the pain.
He put a peeled orange in Jing Zhis hand and said softly,Yes, you are very smart. However, you can be a little dumber in the future. Its enough that Im smart.
Because I will never lose you again.
Jing Zhi chuckled. His brother was peeling an orange for him again!
Im so happy!
In his memory, no one had ever peeled an orange for him except for Jing Rui.
He actually didnt like to eat orange peel, but he was stubborn and refused to peel it, because he knew that his brother would definitely be cold-hearted and soft-hearted and help him peel it.
Jing Zhi swallowed the whole orange, and his hands and mouth were covered in orange juice.
Jing Rui took out a white handkerchief and wiped his hands carefully.
All of a sudden, an image shed across Jing Zhis mind. One day, he had also had orange juice all over his hands. His brother had sat next to him and wiped his hands slowly. He had even called him stupid after he had finished.
Jing Zhi looked at his brothers calm face and asked,Big brother, why arent you calling me an idiot anymore?
Jing Rui could not help butugh and said,Idiot!
Sure enough, it was the same tone as he remembered, with a little helplessness and a faint indulgence.
Jing Zhi was so happy that he devoured all the food like a tornado.
When he was full, he suddenly realized that Jing Rui had not eaten anything.
Brother, I ate your portion as well ... Jing Zhi said helplessly.
Its alright, Jing Rui said calmly.Its not the first time.
Jing Zhi thought about it and agreed with her. He couldnt remember the details, but he had the impression that there were many simr conversations!
It was June, and the childs face changed as he wished. It was still sunny outside a moment ago, but the next moment, it was covered in dark clouds, as if a shocking storm was brewing.
Jing Rui looked up at the sky and stood up, ready to leave.
Ill go out and deal with some other things first. You stay here. Dont go anywhere before Ie back.
Brother, Ill go with you!
Jing Zhi knew that he was going to deal with the people from the two major organizations. He could imagine what kind of shock it would cause when the news of his death spread back.
He didnt want his brother to bear the anger of those people alone!

Trantor: 549690339
No need,
Jing Ruis voice was not loud, but his tone was firm.
You just wait here. Ill get the hypnotist to hypnotize you a few more times to help you recover your memory. You dont need to do anything else.
Big brother ...
Jing Zhi wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Jing Ruis cold eyes.
Outside the window, a sudden p of thunder boomed, and heavy rain poured down.
Jing Zhi watched as his brother took out his killer equipment, put on his mask again, climbed out of the window, and disappeared into the storm. He was so shocked that he almost cried.
His brother had chosen to face the storm alone, leaving all the warmth and peace to him.
A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the duskynd.
In the storm, there was only one figure moving forward alone.
Jing Rui was drenched from head to toe, but he had gotten used to this kind of life and the rain did not weaken his fighting spirit.
Many assassins had surrounded family MUs Hospital, including Zishan and Viper.
Jing Rui did not try to hide himself. He wanted everyone to see that he was here so that they would not suspect him.
Jing Rui had created the illusion that Jing Zhi had been killed by Jing Ruis men after he had injured the target.
Since Jing Zhi was already dead, there should at least be a body. Neither the killer organization nor the Research Institute believed that Jing Zhi was dead, so both sides gave the order: If he was alive, he wanted to see the person. If he was dead, he wanted to see the corpse.
So, the killer organization immediately sent many people to look for Jing Zhis body.
Jing Rui found a hidden corner and hid there quietly.
The killer organizations and the Research Institute had their eyes on this ce, and this was the best time tounch an internal counterattack!
Jing Yichens men were guarding family MUs Hospital tightly.
Jing Rui was injured and almost killed. He should be furious and show his most powerful strength.
In the ward, Liao Wei was lying on the bed with a pale face. His eyes were still filled with fear and panic.
He had been a substitute for seven years, but this was the first time he had suffered such a serious injury! If the opponent had not missed, he would have gone to see the King of Hell!
What the hell is going on!
In the past, there were people who wanted to kill him, but every time, they were discovered by the people around him in advance and then dealt with.
When Jing Rui came back, he was seriously injured, and Liao Weis first suspect was Jing Rui.
Moreover, no one came to save him for a long time after he was injured. He was even knocked unconscious by Han Feng, who had always been honest and obedient!
At the thought of this, Liao Wei shot a venomous look at Han Feng, who was still standing respectfully by his side.
He had just found out that Han Feng was Jing Ruis man! This man had known all along that he was just Jing Ruis substitute!
Han Feng must have told Jing Rui everything about him.
Liao Wei swore in his heart that he would definitely get rid of Han Feng in the future!
As for Jing Rui, he would let him taste the pain of being shot!
Liao Wei had been a substitute for seven years, which meant that he had been running his influence for seven years. He was not stupid at all, and had been desperately training his own confidants.
Only a few people knew his real identity, and he could easily win peoples hearts with the title of the heir of family Jing.
For so many years, he had been asking his men to track down Jing Rui.
Jing Zhi went missing when he was ten years old, and everyone in A city knew about it.
In the same year, Liao Wei became Jing Ruis body double, and the real Jing Rui disappeared as if he had evaporated from the world.
The two incidents were obviously rted. Liao Wei had found out that Jing Rui had joined a killer organization.
But he was not sure which killer organization Jing Rui was in.
Liao Wei took advantage of the cold wind when he was not paying attention to send a message to his confidant. Then, hey on the bed obediently and pretended as if nothing had happened.
He sneered in his heart. He couldnt find out which killer was Jing Rui, but he thought that the killers organization could.
By disclosing such confidential information to the assassin organization, he could probably get a huge return!
Jing Rui, didnt you want to kill me?
Then lets see who will die first!
After a night, both sides had lost a lot of people.
After that, all the top killers received the order to be transferred back, including Jing Rui.
The killers did not know why they were suddenly transferred back. Only Jing Rui knew the specific reason.
They were going back to North America, and Jing Rui was worried about Jing Zhi.
He rushed back to the hotel and told Jing Zhi what to do next.
Im going back to the Assassins base soon. Ah Chi, dont show your face in A city these days. Stay in the hotel for the time being. Its too dangerous outside now. After I take control of the Assassins group, you can move around freely!
Jing Zhi was shocked.
He had never expected that Jing Ruis goal was to take over the entire killer organization!
He didnt even dare to think about this kind of thing!
Brother, I ... You must be careful!
Jing Zhi had wanted to go back to North America with him, but he knew that he wouldnt be of much help. Instead, he might cause an even more intense fight. So, he changed his mind.
Jing Rui nodded.Ill get someone to remove the chip from behind your ear. Dont leave. Also, Ill leave the safety of everyone in the house to you!
Alright!
Jing Zhi had thought that he was useless, but when Jing Rui entrusted him with the task of protecting his family, he immediately felt that he was not useless. He could help!
Jing Rui smiled and said softly,Youre a top-notch killer, so its no problem for you to protect a few people. Especially Xixi, who was the youngest and needed protection the most. She has never seen us since she was born. You can let here and y.
Since the mission in A city was to kill Jing Rui, the killer organization had given all the information about family Jing to the killers.
So Jing Zhi knew that Jing Rui had a sister.
He was faking his death, and the fake Jing Rui was still alive. The current situation was not good for the killer organization, and they were likely to use the young Jing Xi.
So, Jing Ruis worry was reasonable.
Jing Zhi felt that the task on his shoulders was heavy. He nodded seriously.Brother, Xixi and I will wait for you toe back!
Jing Rui smiled and turned to leave.
As soon as he walked out of the hotel, he received a message from one of his men.Boss, Shu Chengshanmitted suicide and left a will for his daughter.
Jing Rui was slightly shocked. He did not expect that Shucheng Shan, who had always been afraid of death and regarded money as his life, would have the courage tomit suicide!
For his daughter, he had really done everything he could!
Chapter 938
Chapter 938: The battle between number one and number three (1)
Trantor: 549690339
In Shu Chengshans will, the reason for his suicide was simply written, and at the same time, it also said the information he had been keeping secret.
It turned out that Shu Chengshan had already found out about the man who had given him a huge sum of money to kill Jing Rui.
Jing Rui frowned as he looked at the name.
Cherry
It was the same as Shuyins English name!
No, it was definitely not Shuyin.
He had already investigated Shuyins identity. Peter had done a DNA test for Shuyin and Shu Chengshan and confirmed that they were undoubtedly father and daughter.
Not only did Shuyin not have the motive to kill him, but she also didnt have the ability to do so.
Moreover, if Shu Yin had really hired Shu Chengshan, he would definitely not have given her up.
If it wasnt Shuyin, who could it be?
Jing Rui felt that Shu Chengshan must have known about her real identity. But because he did not agree to marry Shuyin, Shu Chengshan did not tell him the whole story on purpose. He only told him a little bit and let him guess it himself.
Unfortunately, he had already killed countless people, so he could not be sure who wasing to seek revenge.
Jing Rui did not care much about it. He had enough power to protect himself now, and he would not be afraid even if someone wanted to take revenge on him.
Jing Rui saw a familiar person sitting in the VIP lounge of the airport as soon as he walked in.
Mom! He said in a low voice.
Shangguan ning got up and held Jing Rui in her arms.
Her son had only been back for a few days, and he had to leave so soon. Her heart ached terribly.
Ruirui, you have to be careful. Nothing is more important than you. If youre too tired, you can stop and rest or go home. Well be waiting for you at home!
Shangguan nings voice was choked with sobs. She couldnt bear to see her son leave her, and she couldnt bear to see him go into the lions den.
Jing Rui felt a little sad too. He was a self-proimed genius, but he had never been filial to his mother. He had not apanied his mother as much as his six-year-old sister did.
Mom, dont worry. Im so smart. Ill be fine. If everything goes well, I mighte back in a few months. From then on, Ill stay with you and dad with my sister. I wont leave you, okay?
Tears rolled down Shangguan nings face.
When did his son be so sensible?
He had actually said that he would apany her in the future. This was really rare!
Alright! She nodded.
Mom, you should go home. Its not safe here. Many assassins are flying back to North America. I cant let them recognize me.
Alright, alright, alright, Ill leave immediately!
Jing Ruis safety was the most important thing.
Shangguan ning had sneaked to the airport to wait for Jing Rui. She didnt even dare to bring Jing Xi or Jing Yichen with her.
The more people there were, the bigger the target. If the family of three appeared at the airport, even a fool would be able to guess Jing Ruis identity.
Shangguan ning put on the hat, sunsses and mask, covered herself up and hugged her son tightly before she made up her mind to leave.
Jing Rui stood there, looking at his mothers back as she left in a panic. His heart felt heavy.
His wish was for his loved ones to be safe and happy, especially his mother. He wanted to be like his father, to shelter her from the wind and rain, and not let her worry about him.
What he had done was far from enough!
He was still not strong enough!
A single assassin organization was enough to make him breathless. He urgently needed to strengthen his own strength!
The killers returned to their bases in North America one after another. When Jing Rui returned, he could already feel the chaos and tension in the base.
He didnt reveal anything unusual, patiently waiting for the tragic reshuffle of the assassin organization.
No one knew that Jing Rui was the mastermind behind this internal conflict.
After cracking the secret of the chip, he was able to gather many people to submit to him. After all, no one wanted to carry a time bomb with them all the time. Every assassin desired freedom and to control their own fate.
In the assassin organization, almost everyone had been imnted with a chip. When many people found out that someone could crack the chip, they were all ecstatic.
Of course, not everyone could be bribed.
For example, the Chinese fir.
Jing Rui had spent a long time investigating Zishans identity, but to no avail.
She was the most mysterious woman in the entire assassin organization.
However, the more mysterious she was, the more it meant that there was something wrong with Zishan. Or it could be said that there must be a powerful force behind her, otherwise, it would be impossible for them to not find any information.
While Jing Rui was investigating Zishan, Zishan was also investigating Jing Rui.
Although she could find out Jing Ruis identity, Zi Shan felt that the information she had found must be fake.
On the training ground, Zishan was sweating profusely.
She was frustrated and frustrated that she could not find any information about Jing Rui. When she had nowhere to vent her frustration, she would go through high-intensity training.
In an assassin organization, male assassins would usually use ordinary masks, while female assassins would usually choose perfect masks.
Women always cherished their looks more than men and loved beauty more.
Her long ck hair was tied neatly behind her head, revealing her delicate and wless little face.
No one knew what she really looked like, but just by looking at her mask, it was easy for people to fall in love with her. Her temperament was unique. She had the coldness of an assassin, and the charm and gentleness of a woman. No one would doubt her beauty with this temperament.
The long-term physical training had made Zishan very different from ordinary girls.
She had a slender figure, her legs were straight and long, and her bodys flexibility had reached an amazing level.
Her body was wrapped in a tight-fitting ck training suit. She was fat in the ces that should be fat and thin in the ces that should be thin. Her good figure was obvious at a nce.
Jing Rui looked at the figure running on the training ground from afar and suddenly felt that Zishans sess was justified.
She never cked off, nor would she be proud andcent because she had achieved good results.
Jing Rui did not discriminate against gender, but he had been influenced by his father to think that women should be pampered, not used as killing machines. It was enough for men to fight and kill. Women shouldnt go through all this.
What was it that made a girl work so hard?
He had a reason to risk his life, and he had to risk his life to protect someone.
Could it be that there were also purple fir trees?
Zishan had noticed Jing Ruis appearance. She looked at him coldly and turned back to continue her training.
She had been extremely arrogant since she was young. When she came to the assassin camp, she thought that she could get first ce with her talent and hard work.
However, she was extremely dissatisfied with the result.
Not only did she not get first ce, she didnt even get second ce!
She was not convinced!
Chapter 939
Chapter 939: The battle between number one and number three (2)
Trantor: 549690339
There was a powerful force behind Zishan. She joined the killer organization for a different reason than Jing Rui and Jing Zhi.
She wasnt forced toe in, she came in on her own ord!
She knew that Jing Zhi had a special identity and that his body was different from ordinary people.
Zishan did not mind losing to a non-human being, but she was very annoyed that she had lost to Jing Rui.
She had never understood what was so special about Jing Rui that he could surpass her and Jing Zhi.
After a while, Zishan finally could not hold it in anymore and walked up to Jing Rui.
I want topete with you!
Jing Rui looked at Zishan and said coldly,Im not interested,
Competing with a girl who was younger than him, there was no sense of aplishment at all even if he won. On the contrary, it was easy to expose his strength.
The killers base was full of danger, and Jing Rui would not act rashly just because he admired a female killer.
Moreover, admiration was one thing, and a contest was another.
He wouldnt show mercy to someone just because he admired them. On the contrary, if Zishan attacked him, he would kill him without hesitation.
The word tender and protective towards women was not in Jing Ruis dictionary yet.
Zishan had been prepared to be rejected by Jing Rui. She had been observing him in secret and knew that he was a man of indifference and did not like beating around the bush.
She provoked Jing Rui on purpose,are you not interested, or are you afraid topete with me? Coward!
Jing Rui was not affected by her provocation at all. He said coldly,If youre suspicious of the bases ranking, you can go to the base to reflect it. Otherwise, Ill be first and youll be third. This already shows that youre not strong enough.
How could the proud Zishan ept being called weak?
She attacked Jing Rui without hesitation.
Zishan thought that her marksmanship was not inferior to Jing Rui s, and she wanted to prove that she was better than Jing Rui by fighting in close quarters.
Jing Rui used to admire Zishan. A girl who worked so hard to improve herself and was so brave to go out into the world was something that many men could not do.
However, he hated being pestered by others the most, and he hated being forced to do anything.
Zi Shan forced him to fight with her, not caring about his current mood and physical condition at all. She revealed her willful and selfish side.
The girls fair and slender hands reached for his chest. Jing Rui was instinctively repulsed by the idea of closebat, as it was a great torture for him.
He didnt know why, but as he grew older, he hated it more and more when others touched him.
In order to avoid being entangled in closebat, Jing Rui had created a faster and more ruthless way of fighting.
He was known as lightning in the assassin organization. He was as fast as lightning, as powerful as lightning, and he ended the battle in a sh.
His lightning style ofbat was very effective against opponents who were much weaker than him.
However, when he encountered an expert like Zishan, he could not finish the lightning.
Other people would be intimidated by Jing Ruis reputation and his fierce fighting style, but Zishan was full of fighting spirit. No matter how she fought, she would get up and continue to attack as if she could not feel the pain.
However, Zishan had used all her strength, while Jing Rui had only used half.
No matter when, he would always reserve his strength. Unless it was a critical moment of life and death, he would never reveal his trump card.
Even so, Jing Rui was still shocked by Zishans strength.
This young girl who was only seventeen or eighteen years old was actually so terrifying!
There was nothing fancy about her fighting style. All of her moves were the most practical, and each one was fatal.
She tried to attack from all directions, sometimes fast and sometimes slow. She was fighting with no regard for her life.
At first, Jing Rui was shocked by her strong physical fitness, but soon he found out that she was a scheming person.
She had deliberately put on a posture of not caring for her life in an attempt to create psychological pressure on him.
She was testing him, testing his bottom line, and at the same time, looking for his ws!
Jing Rui rarely fought with women. For one thing, it was rare for women to be his match, and for another, there were few female killers. He usually fought with men.
Therefore, he had never experienced how a woman could be so calctive.
He didnt even know what Zishan was thinking, let alone what her next step was.
This young girl was trying to take his life with tricky and ruthless moves, but she kept getting closer to him, deliberately using her physical advantage to lure him.
This was the most natural advantage of a female killer with an outstanding appearance.
But Jing Rui did not like it.
A womans heart was indeed like a Needle at the Bottom of the Sea.
The assassin camp had never encouraged female killers to use their bodies to kill people. Unless it was an extremely special mission that required the sacrifice of their bodies to seed, female killers were not allowed to have an ambiguous rtionship with the target.
It was not a long-term solution to seduce a man. This was the valuable experience that the assassin organization had concluded over the past hundred years.
A female killers own killing skills were the most important. If she only wanted to use her body toplete the task, then the female killer would be more and more dependent on her body, which would severely degenerate her real killing skills, and the final result would be very miserable.
Jing Rui had thought that Zishan would not resort to such means, but he had misjudged the human heart.
Seeing Zi Shan bump into him with her chest out, Jing Zhi frowned slightly. He seized an opening in Zi Shans defense and kicked her away.
The sound of bones breaking could be heard in the air. Zishans ribs were broken by Jing Rui.
And Jing Ruis admiration for her was shattered by the crisp sound.
He looked down at Zi Shan indifferently. She had a strong will. Her ribs were broken and she was injured in many ces, but she still did not make a sound. She just bit her lip hard and looked at him with aplicated gaze.
If you dont want to die, then get lost in the future.
If they were not in a base where killers were forbidden from killing each other, Jing Rui would not have tolerated Zishans misbehavior.
Just now, if he was not strong enough, he would have died in Zishans hands!
Even Jing Rui felt a chill run down his spine when he saw how vicious the girl was.
He clearly had no enmity with her, but she wanted his life!
Jing Ruis heart was filled with killing intent. He had never been a soft-hearted man. Zishan was already on his death list.
He needed to thoroughly investigate Zishans identity again!
Zishan was in great pain, but she had the same thought as Jing Rui. She wanted to find out Jing Ruis identity.
This was a formidable opponent in her life!
It was better to get rid of them!

However, looking at Jing Ruis tall back, Zi Shan wanted to kill him, but she suddenly felt reluctant.
She had never seen Jing Ruis real face, but his cold and arrogant temperament alone was enough to make any girl fall in love with him.
Maybe Jing Rui did not know it himself, but Zishan knew that many female killers in the killer organization had a crush on lightning, who was ranked first.
In the assassin camp, strength was the most important.
Jing Rui was not only powerful, but also had a noble temperament that other killers could not match.
He didnt look like a killer, but more like a noble from a famous family.
However, he was too cold and unapproachable, so no one dared to confess to him.
Although the assassin organization forbade assassins from dating, feelings were not something that people could control.
Love, the more you cant get it, the more you desire it, and the more you desire it, the deeper the love.
Zishan was already very restrained now. Otherwise, she would have long been trapped in the whirlpool of love and could not extricate herself.
After all, she was not an ordinary girl. She quickly suppressed her feelings for Jing Rui. Every part of her body was in pain, reminding her that Jing Rui was much more powerful than her.
He was able to get first ce because of his true talent!
An hourter, all the wounds on Zishans body had been treated.
She was lying in her own luxury suite, looking through all of Jing Ruis battle records.
Thebat information of an assassin was top secret in an assassin organization!
This was rted to the life and death of an assassin. If it was obtained by an outsider, it would be easy to target an Assassins weakness and attack.
How could a talent trained by an assassin organization with great difficulty reveal such important information?
However, Zishan could easily get everyonesbat information.
Not only that, but she also got a picture of Jing Rui and saw his real face.
Although she was mentally prepared, she was still a little dazed when she saw Jing Ruis face.
She had never seen such a handsome man before!
His eyes were obviously indifferent, but they made people feel that they were extremely deep and affectionate.
His eyes were dark brown.
He usually wore Amber contact lenses specially made by the assassin organization to cover the true color of his pupils.
Seeing such a handsome man, Zishans heart wavered.
She was afraid that she would regret it for the rest of her life after killing Jing Rui.
She was an assassin, but she never wanted to be one for life.
She was in the killer organization for training. Next year, she would leave and go back to the life she was supposed to live.
In the future, she would definitely fall in love, get married, and have children just like any other girl.
After seeing such an outstanding man in the assassin organization, Zishan no longer fancied any man in the secr world.
She didnt want to marry a man who couldnt even defeat her, but how many men in this world could defeat her?
Three dayster, Jing Rui left the base and realized that he was being followed.
The method of tracking was quite ingenious, and it was undoubtedly a unique tracking skill of the killer organization.
Jing Rui sneered. She had the guts to follow him!
He quickly changed his direction a few times, and then he disappeared from the crowd on the street.
Zishan appeared from the dark. After realizing that she had lost her target, she was extremely vexed.
Her tracking skills were already very high, and she had never failed when she carried out a mission in the past. Today was the first time she had hit a wall.
She felt an unspeakable pain in her heart.
It had been proven again that Jing Rui was way more powerful than her.
But Zishan soon became excited. From another perspective, this made her happy that Qianqian did not see Jing Rui as a killer, but a man.
Jing Rui suddenly appeared behind her and knocked her out with one palm.
It was her again!
Now, they were actually following him!
He hadnt sent anyone to follow her, but she couldnt wait to control him!
He didnt know what was good for him!
He was preparing to make contact with the people at the Virus Research Institute today. If Zishan found out, the consequences would be unimaginable.
It had been a long time since Jing Rui had been so angry.
He knocked Zishan out and left her on the busy street, not caring if she would be bullied.
Those who dared to follow him should have the awareness to receive punishment.
The Virus Research Institute was also in chaos.
All the slightly qualified doctors and researchers in the Research Institute had serious personality defects. They were paranoid and fanatical about viruses, so it was easy for them to get into a dead end.
The Research Institute had lost Jing Zhi, their best test subject, and everyone was furious.
They were so furious that they wanted to break into the Assassins base and use the new virus they had developed to take the lives of those assassins.
There were also many researchers who had gone to A city to look for Jing Zhi.
They didnt believe that Jing Zhi was dead, because they all knew his body well. He was like a Superman. Even if he had been shot, he wouldnt have died so easily.
His body had a strong self-healing ability, so there was no problem of dying from excessive blood loss.
Unless all the blood vessels in his body burst like thest time he was affected by the A. I. Chip, Jing Zhi was basically immortal.
No one in the Research Institute was focused on the virus anymore. After seeing the powerful virus in Jing Zhis body, ordinary viruses couldnt satisfy these crazy people.
Jing Rui had never thought of taking the Virus Research Institute under his wing. The people here were different from the killers, and it was hard to persuade them to surrender.
In the eyes of these so-called scientists,scientific research was the most important. Everything else could be sacrificed, including their own children, parents, and rtives.
No matter how smart Jing Rui was, he could not make these people work for him.
Therefore, his n was to destroy the entire Research Institute!
Now that the first step had been sessful, the people in the Research Institute were scattered, and many people had run out and were not in the Research Institute at all.
Jing Rui met the people from the Research Institute with a mask on and gave them a series of instructions.
A weekter, the Virus Research Institutes base was blown up by a violent explosion. The high-rise building of the Research Institute had be a pile of ruins.
Most of the viruses had been destroyed, and the efforts of thousands of people had been reduced to nothing overnight.
The people in A city had been looking for Jing Zhi like crazy, but when they heard that the headquarters had been blown up, they all flew back in a frenzy.
However, as soon as they returned to North America and tried their best to save a batch of virus, they heard that someone suspected to be Jing Zhi had appeared in A city, so they immediately flew back to A city.
Chapter 941
Chapter 941: Little girl
Trantor: 549690339
In A city, the chip behind Jing Zhis ear had been removed. He took off the mask he wore all year round and revealed his true appearance.
Just like Jing Rui, Jing Zhis appearance had been altered. They looked more like Europeans than Asians.
Jing Zhi hadnt put any hyaluronic acid on his face for half a year, and his face was gradually returning to its original shape.
If one looked closely, they would find that Jing Zhi looked simr to Jing Rui.
So, after Jing Xi met Jing Zhi once, she fell in love with him.
The little girl knew that Jing Zhi had a big appetite, so she came to find him with a small backpack full of her snacks.
Second brother, What do you like to eat? Do you want some bubble gum? Theres also a lollipop. Its pineapple-vored!
Second brother, Ive brought all my good food. You must remember to like me in the future!
Second brother, dont worry. You can go home after my brother has defeated all the bad guys! Can I go to your house to y with you?
Second brother, Ive only seen my brother once. Can you tell me more about him? Her mother said that her brother was a genius. Was that true? Is he smarter than I am?
Jing Zhi had no experience with children, so he was at a loss when the girl asked him a hundred thousand whys.
He had just met Jing Xi the day before yesterday. Why did this girl seem to be so close to him?
Were young girls nowadays so clever?
She even gave him all the good food!
However, he didnt like pineapple vor. He liked orange vor.
Jing Zhi stood there in a daze. He had not recovered from the shock since he saw Jing Xi.
Its not safe for him to stay in a hotel, right? Was Jing Xi really fine here? If he was hurt by those people, how would he exin it to his brother!
Jing Xi pouted her little mouth in grievance when she saw that her second brother was ignoring her after she had said so much.
Second brother, do you not like me?
The little girls big eyes were filled with tears, and her pretty face was scrunched up. She bit her lip, as if she would burst into tears if Jing Zhi said I dont like it.
Jing Zhi was shocked and shook his head.No, no, I like you very much!
Then hug me!
Jing Zhi bent down helplessly and picked up his six-year-old cousin.
A smile immediately appeared on Jing Xis face. She did not look like she was going to cry at all. She was clearly lying to him on purpose!
Jing Zhiughed. The little girl was good at acting.
Her small body leaned against him. Perhaps it was because she had just eaten bubble gum, but there was a sweet pineapple smell on her body, cute and pleasant.
Jing Zhi couldnt help but pinch her delicate face.Smart ass, why are you here again? Its not safe here, so you should stay at home.
Jing Xis sharp eyes saw two words on the hand that was pinching her. She immediately held the big hand with both small hands and looked at it carefully.
Second brother, do you like my brother that much? she asked in surprise.
Jing Zhi was always in high spirits at the mention of Jing Rui. Heughed and teased Jing Xi.Of course. You dont like him? Then let me have him!
Don t! I like my brother too! Second brother, can you also write these two words on my palm?
Jing Xi looked at the words in Jing Zhis hand and was envious. Why had she never thought of such a good idea?
Sure, thats easy!
Jing Zhi chuckled and picked up the pen in the hotel. He was about to write for Jing Xi.
However, although Jing Xi was young, she was very smart. She immediately retracted her hand.I dont want someone like this, I want someone like you! This one can be washed off easily, but yours cant be wiped off no matter how hard you try. Its different!
He actually couldnt fool the little girl!
Jing Zhi cuddled her on the sofa andughed as he stroked her hair.I dipped a needle in ink and pierced it bit by bit. It hurts, so you dont have to use this method. Anyway, you wont lose your memory like second brother and forget the past. You dont need to write it on your hand, just remember big brother in your heart!
What?! Jing Xi was shocked.You stabbed it with a needle!
Oh my God! Wouldnt that be extremely painful! She used to be naughty and had been pricked by needles before. At that time, small beads of blood appeared on her hands!
The word brother had so many strokes! How much blood is second brother going to lose!
She suddenly felt a little sorry for her tall and handsome second brother.
Second brother, Ill help you blow on it. It wont hurt anymore.
Jing Xi lowered her head and blew on Jing Zhis palm.
Mom said that second brother had forgotten all the things in the past and he had suffered a lot. It was because of second brother that big brother had left home for so many years.
At first, she was still a little resentful of her second brother, but now she felt that he was very pitiful.
They could only me those bad guys!
Jing Xis brain was spinning fast. She suddenly thought of something and put her arms around Jing Zhis neck.Second brother, do you still remember sister luoluo?
Zheng yuluo?
Jing Zhi didnt know why his little cousin had mentioned this man. His expression turned cold, but he still said to Jing Xi very gently,I remember.
He had recovered a part of his memory and could remember many things before he was ten years old.
He remembered that the twins, mu duo, and mu Sen were all afraid of being infected by the virus, so they didnt y with him.
He remembered that other than his brother Jing Rui, everyone else thought that he was a monster. He was strong, ate a lot, and could hear and see things that others could not.
He seemed to have spent his childhood in disputes with others. He had no friends at school and no one yed with him. He was always alone.
However, he had no memory of being drugged by Zheng yuluo.
Perhaps he waspletely unconscious at the time and didnt know what had happened. He only knew that he was in the hospital when he woke up and then began a life of purgatory.
He knew that the Zheng sisters were not entirely to me for this. Even if he had not been tied up and sent away, the people from the Virus Research Institute would have captured him sooner orter.
However, he still hated her.
He hated her for being so cruel as to drug him, tie him up, and personally send him to hell.
Jing Rui had told him everything that had happened in the past when they returned to A city.
He had wanted to kill Zheng yuluo, but now he felt that the best way to torture a person was not to let her die, but to make her unable to even die!
Chapter 942
Chapter 942: I cant kill him?
Trantor: 549690339
Although Jing Xi was young, she was very sensitive to the changes in other peoples emotions.
She knew that her second brother was unhappy.
Second brother, dont be angry. Sister luoluo also knows that she was wrong! Shes been looking for you and even went to North America for you! I heard from mom that she was injured by a pervert in North America and almost lost her life. Uncle Zheng and aunt Zheng flew to North America to take her home.
Perverted?
Jing Zhi pinched his cousins nose and said in his heart,girl, that pervert is your second brother!
Its good to be injured!
This was what Zheng yuluo owed him!
Did Zheng yuluo ask you to be a lobbyist?
Jing Zhis voice was even colder than before. Jing Xi was only a child now. If Zheng yuluo dared to use Jing Xi, he would definitely not let her off easily!
No, no, Jing Xi quickly shook her head.She didnt ask me to say that. I feel that sister luoluo is quite pitiful. Look, she even abandoned her home to look for you, and Ive never seen her smile before!
Jing Xi was not lying. Zheng yuluo rarelyughed.
She felt so guilty towards Jing Zhi that she was drowned in remorse. She had nightmares every day and was under so much mental pressure that she couldnt even smile.
There was a period of time when she didnt dare to meet people and had to drop out of school. The Zheng family had hired a psychiatrist for her treatment and she was able to go back to school. But since then, her personality had changed greatly, and she hadpletely be a girl of few words.
Every time Jing Xi saw the twin sisters, she would find them strange because their personalities were so different.
She had only recently found out that it was Zheng yuluo who had tied Jing Zhi up and sent him to the bad guys.
Although Zheng yuluo was quiet and did not like to talk, she liked children and treated Jing Xi very well. Perhaps she wanted to make up for the pain she had caused Jing Zhi when he was young, so she would subconsciously protect and love children whenever she saw them.
That was why Jing Xi liked her far more than the lively and cheerful Zheng Yuwei.
That was why she wanted to put in a good word for Zheng yuluo.
Although Jing Zhi had met Zheng yuluo twice, he didnt know what her personality was like, and he didnt notice if she liked to smile.
What did it have to do with him whether sheughed or not?
Knowing that Zheng yuluo wasnt living well, Jing Zhi felt a little better. If Zheng yuluo had lived a carefree life, he would probably have had a stronger desire for revenge.
At least Zheng yuluo still had some humanity left in her, and she knew to go find him!
The feeling of being isted was still clear to Jing Zhi after he regained his memory.
Zheng yuluo used to be good at her studies, smart and talkative. She was popr and pretty, and had arge group of supporters. She only needed to say one word to make the students around her gather around her and give Jing Zhi the cold shoulder.
In his childhood, no one had been willing to touch him except for Jing Rui.
Everyone was a stranger to Jing Zhi, except for Jing Rui.
Xixi, this has nothing to do with you. Dont be fooled by her. Stay away from that woman in the future. Shes not a good person!
In Jing Zhis eyes, no matter how smart Jing Xi was, she was only a six-year-old girl. How could she be a match for someone like Zheng yuluo?
Second brother, I can still distinguish between good and bad. Sister luoluo is a good person, not a liar! Jing Xi said helplessly.
A good person? How many years have you been eating? I, your second brother, have escaped from death in North America. Ive seen many bad guys, but your sister luoluo must have a ck Heart! Who knows, maybe hes deliberately trying to gain your trust, and then one day, hell take the opportunity to tie you up and sell you! A pretty little girl like you would be fought over by many forces outside!
As Jing Zhi spoke, he suddenly felt that it was possible.
He had been betrayed by Zheng yuluo, and he had a terrible impression of her. He always felt that she would betray Jing Xi too.
No, no, this kind of person is a threat to us. Shes a disaster. I wanted to let her live, but it seems that I have to kill her soon!
Jing Xi was so scared that her face turned pale.
She had spent so much effort today to put in a good word for sister luoluo, but in the end, it had the opposite effect!
Second brother, dont be rash!
Jing Xi grabbed Jing Zhis arm and shook it violently.You have to promise me that you will not kill sister luoluo! You must keep her alive!
I cant kill him?
I cant kill him!
Jing Zhi hesitated. He wanted to take revenge and get rid of the problem at its roots. What if Jing Xi was tricked by Zheng yuluo?
Seeing his hesitation, Jing Xi immediately threw herself into his arms and said,Second brother, second brother, youre the best! You cant bear to make me sad, can you? I like sister luoluo. If you kill her, I wont have a sister anymore!
Jing Zhi didnt realize that even if he had killed Zheng yuluo, Jing Xi still had two sisters, mu duo and Zheng Yuwei. He just didnt want to make the little girl sad, so he nodded and promised her,Alright, I wont kill her. Ill let her live.
Sometimes, living was more painful than death. He had a hundred ways to make life worse than death.
Jing Xi didnt know what Jing Zhi was thinking. She was relieved to hear that he agreed. She said seriously,Second brother, you have to keep your word. Lets make a pinky promise. If something happens to sister luoluo, Ill never talk to you again!
Alright, dont worry. Shes still alive, she wont die! Hook! Last time, he was kicked so hard by him and he still survived. He was really lucky!
Jing Xi Happily Hooked her pinky with Jing Zhi s, and then asked cautiously,Second brother, can I tell sister luoluo about your return? Shes been looking for you everywhere. I heard from mom that shes going to North America again next month. I dont know who told her that youre there, so shes always going there.
Jing Zhi held Jing Xis hand and refused with a straight face.No, I cant say it! This was a secret! No more than five people know about what I did in A city, and youre one of them. There cant be a sixth person!
Jing zhichen could not trust Zheng yuluo. Who knew if this woman would sell him out again?
Once bitten, twice shy!
Jing Xis face fell and she said,Alright, Ill keep it a secret.
Poor sister luoluo. She would have to look for second brother for a while longer.
Jing Zhi was finally at ease after his cousins promise. He started to stroke his chin and discuss with his little cousin seriously.Xixi, what do you think of Zheng Yuwei? Back then, she helped her sister to send me to the hands of bad people. Shes as bad as her sister. Since you dont allow me to kill Zheng yuluo, I can kill Zheng Yuwei, right?
Jing Xis face, which had just turned red, turned pale again.
No! Second brother, you cant kill sister Wei Wei either!
Chapter 943
Chapter 943: Looking for the lost him
Trantor: 549690339
If I cant kill this or that, then which one can I kill? Little Xixi, others have bullied your second brother to death. Cant you let me take revenge? Ive been suppressing my anger for seven years, and now that Ive finally found the culprit, how can you bear to make second brother angry again? How about this, since you like Zheng yuluo, then let her live, but Zheng Yuwei must die. I havent killed anyone for a long time, my hands are rusty.
As a professional killer, Jing Zhi didnt have many scruples about killing people. The only thing he had been worried about was the internal rules of the killer organization, such as not killing unrted people at will, or the organization wouldnt deal with the trouble that was caused.
After the age of ten, he had been living in the two major institutions and had lost his previous memories. His moral values and legal awareness were extremely weak because no one had ever taught him how to be a person. The education he had received was only on how to kill.
In an assassin organization, human lives were the most valuable and also the least valuable.
Jing Xi wanted to cry but had no tears. She felt that it was difficult tomunicate with her second brother about murder.
It was all thanks to her being different from ordinary children. Her IQ and EQ were many times higher than ordinary children. She was more mature, and her parents at home had taught her differently. She had been exposed to the dark side of society at a young age and knew that her brother was an assassin.
Any other child wouldve fainted from shock if they had heard Jing Zhis words.
The girl put her arms around Jing Zhis neck and exined patiently,
Second brother, we cant kill people randomly. If this person is unpardonable and you want to end his life in secret, I wont stop you, but big sister luoluo and big sister Weiwei are good people. Can you let them go?
Jing Zhi thought differently from his cousin. He had killed so many people in the past, but he had never cared whether they were good or bad. He only knew that if he didntplete the task, he would be severely punished when he returned to the organization.
Xixi, I think theyre both dangerous, especially since theyve been lurking around you all year round. Youre too dangerous!
No, no, no, its not dangerous at all! Second brother, I still have you to protect me in the future, right? Even if theyre in danger, can you not care about me, second brother?
Jing Xi tried her best and even kissed him before Jing Zhi agreed to not kill anyone.
Jing Zhi had already forgotten about the murder.
He only felt that his little cousins lips were soft, and it was veryfortable to kiss his face. Looking at the little girls cute appearance, his heart melted into a pool of water. Suddenly, he wanted to protect this little sister from the depths of his heart.
He had a good brother, and he wanted to be a good brother in the future!
Zheng yuluo didnt know that she had just walked past the gates of hell. She woke up in the middle of the night and couldnt fall asleep again.
The night was as cold as water. The stars in the sky did not make Zheng yuluo feel beautiful. She only felt cold all over.
Ever since Jing Zhi went missing seven years ago, she had been suffering from insomnia and nightmares. When she woke up, she would feel cold all over.
She curled up in the corner and wrapped herself in a nket, staring at the night sky outside the window.
She couldnt fall asleep. At the moment, she was worried about Jing Zhi, who still had no news. She wondered if he was doing well.
Tomorrow, she wanted to go and find Jing Xi.
She knew that Jing Xi was not an ordinary girl. She knew a lot of secrets about the Jing family, and more importantly, she knew some things about Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo had no interest in the secrets of family Jing. She only wanted to live for one thing for the rest of her life.
She would not give up until she found Jing Zhi.
She had only known that Jing Zhi might be in North America because Jing Xi had told her.
She really loved the girl and the girl treated her like her own sister, so she couldnt help but tell her about Jing Zhi.
Some time ago, when she and her sister went to the hospital to visit Jing Rui, they were suddenly beaten up by a strange man who seemed to know them.
The more Zheng yuluo thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. That person was obviouslying for her. Otherwise, he would not have called her name instead of his sisters name.
However, she had never offended anyone!
All these years, she had been living like a ghost and had never been willing to cause any trouble. How could she have any enemies?
If there was a grudge between them, it would be between Jing Zhi and Sean, whom he had met once in North America.
Zheng yuluos instinct told her that the person who wanted to kill her and her sister was Sean.
Although his appearance had changed, his body shape had not changed at all, especially the cold killing intent on his body. It was exactly the same.
Zheng yuluo had a secret. She was very sensitive to sounds. As long as she heard it once, she would never forget it.
Seans voice and the crazy person they met in the hospital werepletely the same!
Zheng yuluo was a little scared.
She really could not understand why Sean woulde to A city.
Was it just to kill her?
Because she wanted to draw his blood, he traveled thousands of miles across the sea to kill her?
How could she survive after being targeted by such a person?
However, this was impossible. Zheng yuluo felt that she was not so valuable that Sean, the demon, would keep an eye on her.
Zheng yuluo couldnt figure out the specific reason. She sat all night and went to find Jing Xi the next day with a pale face.
She had brought a lot of Jing Xis favorite snacks and wanted to ask Jing Xi about Jing Zhis whereabouts.
Unfortunately, Jing Xi didnt seem to know where Jing Zhi was.
Zheng yuluo was slightly disappointed and took a taxi home.
She sat in the taxi and watched the scenery outside the window fly past her. She mumbled,Jing Zhi, where are you?
Her eyes were unfocused, and she didnt notice that the drivers body trembled slightly when he heard her say Jing Zhis name. His eyes glowed with a strange light.
When she arrived at the Zheng family, Zheng yuluo paid for the car and returned to the Zheng familys Vi. She didnt see anyone following her home.
Zheng Yuwei had returned to the military school to continue her studies. Zheng yuluo was the only child in the Zheng family, and her family took care of her in every possible way, fearing that she would go out to find Jing Zhi again and note home.
Seeing her daughters Haggard look, Zheng Lun felt her heart ache.
Luoluo, dont look for him anymore, okay?
No, mom, Im going to find her.
Youre looking for a needle in a haystack. You wont be able to find it even if you search for a lifetime.
It doesnt matter. Ill look for her forever!
Silly child, so what if we find him?
Mom, I just want to know if hes doing well ... She said.
Chapter 944
Chapter 944: Long time no see
Trantor: 549690339
In just a few months, the two major organizations, the killer organizations and the Virus Research Institute, had been greatly weakened.
The internal division of the assassin organization was serious, and they had be two opposing factions. The doctors and researchers of the Virus Research Institute had either died or scattered. Most of the viruses that had been cultivated with countless efforts had also been lost, and even a lot of confidential information had disappeared.
The Virus Research Institute only existed in name. Arge amount of funds and industries under its name had been divided up by several high-level executives, and then they all disappeared under different names.
As one of the higher-ups, Peter also received arge portion of the assets. Very quickly, Peter was no longer in the Virus Research Institute.
It was the middle of winter, and city A was covered in white. It was as beautiful as the kingdom of snow in fairy tales.
At family MUs Hospital, a foreign male doctor by the name of Peter appeared. This doctor even brought up a daughter by himself named Cheryl.
However, in the eyes of outsiders, this father and daughter pair were a little strange.
One of them was obviously European, while the other was a typical Asian girl.
Moreover, the two of them didnt look like father and daughter at all. They werent close at all. One of them spoke English while the other spoke Chinese.
Shuyin was a cold person. She had lived among a group of paranoid people for a long time and didntmunicate with the outside world for a long time. She didnt even know that the outside world had developed to this extent.
When she arrived in A city, she saw that everyone around her had ck hair and ck eyes like her. Shuyin felt very happy. She rarely smiled, but she had been smiling for the past few days.
She and Peter went to a luxurious hotel to check in. There, she met Jing Zhi.
Long time no see, Sean!
Shuyin and Peter were standing outside the door of Jingzhi hotel. They greeted Jing Zhi in a calm tone, as if they werent surprised to see him.
Jing Zhi, on the other hand, was shocked.
PeterCherry?! What are you guys doing here?
Peterughed and said in a familiar tone, Youve been living a carefree life here, and weve been struggling in the sea of misery for months. Youre really mean! You must treat us today!
After he finished speaking, he ignored Jing Zhi, who was standing at the door in a daze, and went straight into his suite.
Shuyin took off her mask and nodded at Jing Zhi before walking in without any hesitation.
Jing Zhi rolled his eyes when he saw that the two men didnt treat him as an outsider at all. They didnt even respect him as their master and went straight into his room.
He closed the door and saw the two of them sitting freely in the living room. He couldnt help but feel a headache.Did my brother ask you toe? If youe to my ce, the danger factor will be tripled! Hurry up and leave!
Before Jing Rui left city A, he had already told him that both Peter and Shuyin were his people. It wasnt just the two of them. There were many other people who hade to his side, but they were the most reliable and could withstand any test.
However, Jing Zhi did not have a good impression of anyone from the Virus Research Institute. Even if Peter and Shuyin were his brothers people and had helped him countless times in the dark, he still could not bring himself to like them.
Not to mention anything else, the two of them had bullied him a lot in order to not expose their identities!
The mostmon thing that Peter did was to send arge group of people to capture it. Shuyin had even injected various drugs into its body.
Boss has already arranged the security work. You dont have to worry about us exposing your identity. Were on the same side, and were family now! Of course, Peter knew about Jing Zhis rejection of them, but it didnt take it seriously. It was loyal to Jing Rui, not Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi gritted his teeth unhappily,Im not your family! If youre here to catch up and eat, then Im sorry, I dont have anything here!
Of course, Peter did not bring Shuyin along just to freeload.
Were here today to check on your physical condition. Cheryl has taken care of you for so long and knows your body the best. Its most suitable for her to do the examination. Of course, one of the necessary items for the examination is to draw Yingluos blood.
Check? Blood drawing?
These were all things that he rejected the most!
Jing Zhi turned to look at Shu Yin.
Today was the first time he saw Shuyins full face. In the past, he could only see half of her face, but today, he saw her whole face. Jing Zhi was truly stunned by her.
She was dressed simply in light blue jeans, a white sweater, and a white tweed coat. She was tall and slender, and her temperament was cold and outstanding. Her long ck hair was let down casually, and her face was so beautiful that people could not bear to look away.
Her eyes were clear and emotionless, making her look like an extremely pure and innocent young girl who was ignorant of the world.
However, Jing Zhi knew that the seemingly ethereal and untainted Shuyin was not only intelligent but also very scheming. She was a woman with determination and courage.
When she interacted with people, she was neither too close nor too cold. She had a good grasp of the scale.
Jing Zhi didnt know how she had be his brothers confidant, but he knew that he had made a mistake. Shuyin wasnt as simple as he had thought.
Theres no need to check, Im in good health!
Shu Yin lifted her delicate face and looked at Jing Zhi quietly.If you dont cooperate with the inspection, I will report to the Boss. He is in a very dangerous situation in North America right now. Are you sure you want me to disturb him?
Jing Zhi was taken aback by her words. This girls mouth was as sharp as ever! His words were still so direct!
He was so angry that he wanted to hit them, but his rationality told him that the two people in front of him were his brothers people. He couldnt hit them.
In the end, he had no choice but to ept the examination.
Shuyin was already very familiar with all kinds of examinations. She connected all kinds of precise instruments she brought with her to Jing Zhis body, then took out a needle and prepared to draw blood from Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi instinctively tried to get up to avoid it, but he was stopped by Peter.The blood test this time is different from the past. In the past, we would take a lot because it was used to study viruses. This time, we will only take a little to ensure that the concentration of the virus in your blood is not fatal.
Shuyin didnt even look at Jing Zhi. She put on rubber gloves and stabbed the needle into Jing Zhis blood vessel without hesitation. A few secondster, she drew five milliliters of blood. She pulled the needle out and sealed the blood immediately.
Thats enough. Peter, lets go.
Peter nodded its head in satisfaction. It felt that Shuyin seemed to have be even more powerful than before. It was a little suspicious that Shuyin had been holding back when she was at the Research Institute.
When they were about to leave, Shuyin turned around and said to Jing Zhi,Sean, a lot of people from the Research Institute havee to A city recently and theyre all looking for you. Do you want to take revenge? If you need their information, I think I can help.

Revenge?
Of course I do!
Jing Zhi wanted to take revenge even in his dreams.
He would never forget the pain and torture he had experienced in the past!
However, he wasnt stupid. Shuyin asked him to take revenge, but was he going to do it just like that?
What good would it do you if I killed them?
The good thing is that Ill feel better. I want to work with you because I dont have the ability to kill. You can consider it. If you dont want to take the risk, just pretend I didnt say anything.
Jing Zhi was stunned for a moment before he reacted.You hate them too?
Shuyin smiled coldly,of course! The virus in my body is all thanks to them!
Jing Zhi knew that Shuyin had the virus in her body as well. In fact, almost everyone in the Research Institute carried the virus, including Peter.
Not all viruses developed by the Research Institute were harmful. Many of them were beneficial to the body. Some could greatly improve the immune system, some could maintain the beauty of the face for a long time, and some could increase intelligence and promote physical development.
Ever since Shuyin entered the Research Institute, she had never caught a cold or fallen sick. The main reason was that the virus in her body had strengthened her physical fitness, and it was difficult for external viruses to invade her body.
However, Shuyins survival today was entirely due to her own research and understanding of viruses. There used to be many types of viruses in her body, but she had slowly cleaned them up by herself. Now, the virus content in her body was very low.
Jing Zhi didnt agree to Shuyins request immediately, and Shuyin didnt ask him to give her an answer.
If she wanted Jing Zhi to take revenge with her, she had to talk to Jing Rui first. If Jing Rui did not agree, she would not let Jing Zhi do it.
Shuyin waspletely free now. Although she still called Jing Rui Boss, she was no longer his subordinate.
She had received arge sum of money from Jing Rui, but in fact, Jing Rui did not need to pay her a single cent, because they had each taken what they needed. She took care of Jing Zhi, and Jing Rui protected her.
After receiving Jing Ruis payment, Shuyin was puzzled for a long time.
She knew that Jing Rui was not a petty person, but he would never be so generous.
There must be some other reason she didnt know.
Shuyin was smart and didnt ask further, nor did she refuse. She knew that she wouldnt be able to find out the reason, and she couldnt reject it at all.
Since Jing Rui had said that she deserved it, she must have deserved it.
She believed that she would slowly find out the real reason.
Shuyin took Jing Zhis blood to family MUs hospitalsboratory and began to break down the blood for testing.
In North America, Jing Rui received a message from Shuyin.
He frowned slightly. Did she want to work with Jing Zhi to get rid of the virus researchers in A city?
This was a very dangerous matter. For Jing Zhi, who had undergone special training, killing someone was a simple task. But for Shuyin, killing someone could easily cost her life.
He had promised Shu Chengshan that he would protect Shuyin and let her live a peaceful life until old age.
Hence, he rejected Shuyins suggestion.
Shuyin wasnt too surprised to receive Jing Ruis rejection, but she didnt expect that Jing Rui refused to let them take revenge not because he was worried about Jing Zhis safety, but because he was afraid of her!
It wasnt until Christmas Day that she received the news that three researchers in A city had died at the hands of Jing Zhi. She was shocked to find out that all three of them had been killed by Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi must have gotten Jing Ruis permission to kill someone, otherwise he would not have shown up so easily.
Shuyins always clear mind became a little confused.
Did Jing Rui refuse to let her take revenge for her own safety?
How could this be possible?
Jing Rui had agreed to let Jing Zhi take such a big risk to take revenge. Why did he disagree with her taking the risk?
Shuyin and Jing Rui had known each other for almost three years. She was never curious about Jing Ruis identity, appearance, age, or nationality, and had never thought of meeting him. They had alwaysmunicated with each other through words, and they trusted each other very much.
But this was the first time she wanted to see Jing Rui.
She wanted to ask him what had happened to cause him to change so much!
Originally, she did not n toe to A city. Compared to A city, she was actually more familiar with the environment abroad. She wanted to live abroad for a long time.
But Jing Rui, who had promised to give her enough freedom, went back on his word. He asked Peter to bring her to Xuanji in A city because it was Jing Ruis territory and was safer than overseas.
Compared to Shuyins confusion, Jing Zhi had been in a very good mood these days.
Her brother had actually agreed to his revenge n!
He was bored in the hotel and had nothing to do every day. Except for little Xixi, who woulde to y asionally, there was no one else to talk to.
He had thought that his brother would be worried about his safety and would not let him go out. He did not expect his brother to trust him so much and allow him to show up and take revenge!
What Jing Zhi didnt know was that although Jing Rui believed in his ability, he had sent someone to protect him in secret in case of any idents.
When the people at the Virus Research Institute heard that three of their colleagues had died, they all went into hiding and didnt dare to go out.
They were shocked to realize that if Jing Zhi was still alive, he must be an elite killer trained by an assassin organization. They were simply here to die!
North hated Andrew to the core, and he was very confident that Jing Zhi was still alive.
He felt that Andrew was an idiot! She kept talking about how powerful her chip was, but it didnt work on Jing Zhi at all!
What was even more hateful was that Andrew had trained Jing Zhi into a master. Ordinary people were no match for him! How were they supposed to catch him?
North had lost another three elite researchers, and their hearts were bleeding. His manpower had been sharply reduced, and many people had chosen to leave him to find another way out, because he no longer offered the temptation of immortality.
He had originally wanted to target Jing Xi, but unfortunately, Jing Xi was too well protected, and his men could not get close to this clever little girl at all.
However, the youngdy might not be able to do it, but the olderdy might be able to persuade his people. Now, she was monitoring and following Zheng yuluo 24 hours a day!
Back then, Norths men had taken Jing Zhi away from Zheng yuluo, and they had a deep impression of her.
Hadnt Zheng yuluo been looking for Jing Zhi?
All they needed was a little guidance, and Zheng yuluo would be able to lead them to Jing Zhi!
After seven years, Zheng yuluo had once again be their assistant!
Chapter 946
Chapter 946: Encounter
Trantor: 549690339
Christmas, a Western holiday, was nothing special to Zheng yuluo.
No Festival could make her happy. On the contrary, she would feel a strong sense of guilt every time there was a Festival.
She bought some gifts and took a taxi to Jing Yirans Vi.
Jing Yiran was the only one in the vi and it felt empty. Zheng yuluos heart was empty, just like the vi.
Uncle Jing, Im here to see you.
Luoyu, didnt you say you didnt need toe? Its so cold, you should go home!
For so many years, Zheng yuluo woulde to see him on every holiday. Jing Yiran had been cold to her at first, thinking that it was all because of her. But he also knew that Zheng yuluo had been under a lot of pressure. Time had shown her true colors and she was no longer the stubborn little girl she had been before.
Now, when Jing Yiran saw Zheng yuluo, although they were not very close, he was not as cold as he had been before.
Zheng yuluo didnt want to beg for Jing Yirans forgiveness, because she couldnt even forgive herself. What she could do was to try her best to make up for her mistakes.
Jing Yiran was always alone during Chinese New Year and other festivals. When Jing Zhi was not by his side, she would be filial to him on his behalf and keep himpany, hoping that it would ease his pain of losing his son.
Uncle Jing, Im fine. Im not cold.
Zheng yuluo lowered her head and asked softly,Is there any news about Jing Zhi? Im so useless, I still cant find him.
Although Jing Yiran could not bear to see Zheng yuluo continue the search, he had been warned by Jing Yichen not to reveal the news that Jing Zhi was back, or both Jing Rui and Jing Zhi would be in danger.
He could only shake his head as if he knew nothing and did not say anything else.
Zheng yuluo was not suspicious. She did not have any hope when she asked this question. She had been disappointed for too long, and she did not dare to have any hope anymore.
Uncle, Im sorry. If it wasnt for me, Jing Zhi wouldnt have been ... She said.
Alright, enough. Jing Yiran interrupted Zheng yuluo and said in a low voice,Yuluo, you were just a child back then and didnt know any better. Although uncle hated you before, I dont hate you anymore. In the future, dont look for ah Chi anymore. Live your life well. Go to school when you need to, date when you need to, dont dy your life.
Zheng yuluo raised her head in shock. She saw Jing Yirans face and her big eyes were filled with tears.Uncle ... Do you hate me? How can I not look for him? please dont be like this! Im still young, I dont need to fall in love! Ive also been studying in school! I didnt dy anything. I lost Jing Zhi. I have to find him!
No, yuluo, youve misunderstood. Uncle doesnt hate you. Uncle just feels that you cant be med for ah Chis incident. Youve suffered for so many years. Its enough.
Maybe it was because he had found Jing Zhi and knew that Jing Zhi was living in a hotel in one piece, Jing Yiran felt much better than before.
Since his son was back, there was no need to let Zheng yuluo, a little girl, run around and suffer.
You should go and live a happy life, just like Yuwei and mu duo. Find a young man to date, go shopping, drink coffee, and watch movies with him. Look at you, which part of you looks like a 16-year-old girl? Its almost the new year, so buy yourself some nice clothes. Dont just wear gray clothes all day. Young girls should wear brighter clothes.
16 or 17 years old was the most beautiful and dazzling age for a girl. Children at this age would try to start a pure and innocent rtionship. Others would spend the night with their boyfriends and it was very romantic. Only Zheng yuluo had been alone. She did not even have a friend, let alone fall in love.
Zheng yuluo didnt look embarrassed at all when Jing Yiran talked about love, because she had never had that kind of feeling. She didnt like or care about anyone. She just wanted to find Jing Zhi as soon as possible and not let him suffer alone.
In the past, she was also very vain. She liked to wear beautiful clothes and tie the prettiest braids. But now, all beautiful clothes lost their color in her eyes. Most of her clothes were bought casually, and she had long lost the mood to dress herself up.
Uncle Jing, you dont have to persuade me. I made a mistake and I have to take responsibility. I will continue to look for him. If you know his approximate location, please tell me!
After Zheng yuluo finished speaking, she bit her lip and got up, walking out slowly.
When she got home, she found a note in her pocket!
It was clearly written on the note that the person you were looking for had returned to the country.
A few words shocked Zheng yuluos mind!
She immediately raised her head and looked out of the window. The streets outside were covered in snow, and there was not a single person in sight.
Who was it?
Who put a note in her pocket?
The only person she was looking for was Jing Zhi. Had he returned?
How could this be possible?
Zheng yuluo held the note tightly in her hand, and she didnt even notice her nails digging into her flesh.
Jing Zhi is back?
This was the only sentence that kept repeating in her mind.
After a long time, her agitated mood gradually calmed down.
How would anyone know that Jing Zhi was back? How did he know that she had been looking for Jing Zhi?
No one knew what had happened that year except for her acquaintances. No one knew that she had gone to look for Jing Zhi. Her neighbors and rtives all thought that she had gone to study abroad, just like Yuwei.
However, no matter what, this brought hope to Zheng yuluo.
For the first time in seven years, she felt a glimmer of hope!
She put on her coat and carried her bag again. Ignoring her parents advice, she jumped into the White snow again.
Since someone had given her a note, there must be other notes!
She didnt know who the other party was or what they wanted, but she didnt want to let go of this little opportunity.
It was a snowy Christmas, but Jing Zhi didnt stay idle. He asked Shuyin for more information about the virus researchers and then got busy with his revenge.
In the past, he had been tortured miserably by those people. Now that he finally had the ability to fight back, he had to kill to his hearts content!
Like those perverted researchers, one death meant one less person. It was best if they all died. Otherwise, who knew how many more children would be harmed by them in the future!
In the heavy snow, Jing Zhi saw a familiar figure, followed by two people. These two people were the targets he was going to kill.
Jing Zhi frowned slightly. Zheng yuluo!
Chapter 947
Chapter 947: A dangerous ambiguity
Trantor: 549690339
Was this woman an idiot?
Instead of staying at home on such a snowy day, youre out running around!
And he didnt even know that he was being followed!
Jing Zhi was furious at the thought that he had been tricked by this idiot and suffered for seven years.
He wished he could kill all three of them!
The two people from the Virus Research Institute had no idea that the person they were looking for had been following them.
In order to help Zheng yuluo find Jing Zhi, they sent a few suspicious locations to Zheng yuluos phone.
Zheng yuluo received the address, and the doubts in her heart increased.
As she walked on the street, she suddenly turned her head. However, it was empty behind her. Other than the White snow, there was not a single person.
She looked at the address on her phone, gritted her teeth, and headed to the first location.
Jing Zhi followed Zheng yuluo for an hour and immediately understood that she was looking for him.
The person who was following Zheng yuluo did not want to kill her, but wanted to find him through her.
Jing Zhi sneered. These people were really stupid. They actually followed Zheng yuluo to find him. Didnt the Virus Research Institute know that he and Zheng yuluo were like fire and water?
He pondered for a moment and quickly disappeared into the snow.
Zheng yuluo searched three ces in a row, but she didnt see Jing Zhi. She went to the fourth location in disappointment.
The fourth ce was a duplex apartment. The people from the Virus Research Institute thought that Jing Zhi might live there, because they had seen people who looked very simr to Jing Zhi here several times.
Zheng yuluo knocked on the door, but there was no response. After waiting for a while, just as she was thinking of another way to sneak in, the door of the apartment opened.
Zheng yuluo was slightly stunned and said uneasily,Is anyone there? I ... Im here to find my friend.
No one responded to her.
The house was empty. Zheng yuluo hesitated for a moment, but she still walked in.
Her two tails were patiently lurking outside.
Zheng yuluo walked slowly in the room. She searched the entire first floor but did not find anyone. Then, she went up to the second floor.
A tall figure in white stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor.
The snow had stopped at some point, and the sunset glow shone through the clean ss and onto his body, covering him with ayer of golden light.
He held the gun in his right hand and skillfully installed the silencer in his left hand. He stared outside and said in a cold tone without turning his head,Zheng yuluo, do all idiots live as long as you?
Zheng yuluos face was pale without a trace of blood!
She recognized his voice!
Hes that homicidal maniac, Sean!
Why is this lunatic here?!
He didnt even need to turn around to call out her name! Did he already know that she woulde here?
Didnt they say that the person here could be Jing Zhi?
Could it be ...
No, no, no, this was impossible! How could Jing Zhi be the devil? She must have been deceived! Did Sean deliberately get someone to give her a note and text her to trick her intoing here?
Jing Zhi used to be mischievous and mischievous, but he was kind and never hurt anyone. He liked to adopt stray cats and was full of love.
Jing Zhi would never kill anyone!
Before she coulde back to her senses, Jing Zhi opened the window and fired two shots outside. The sound was muffled because of the silencers, but the two screams outside were sharp.
He had killed someone! He killed someone again! And there were two of them!
This lunatic!
There were innocent residents downstairs, how could he just kill them?
Zheng yuluo was so scared that her face turned pale. She wanted to run away, but she realized that her legs were already trembling and were not listening to her at all!
She had met Sean twice, and today was the third time they had met. However, every time they met, she was terrified!
Every time, she was struggling on the edge of life and death!
Jing Zhi killed two people without any expression on his face. He didnt even stop breathing.
He closed the window, turned around, and walked toward Zheng yuluo with his gun against the light.
His leather shoes made a crisp Dong Dong sound as they stepped on the floor, as if they were announcing the countdown to Zheng yuluos death.
Zheng yuluo almost couldnt support herself. She leaned against the wall tightly, not letting herself fall.
Her breathing was rapid, and her heartbeat was almost at the limit of what she could bear.
Jing Zhi wasnt wearing a mask, but his appearance had changed a lot since he was a child. Zheng yuluo couldnt see his face clearly against the light, but she still didnt believe that he was Jing Zhi.
Sean, Im sorry. I didnt know you were here! Ill leave now!
Zheng yuluos voice was obviously trembling, and the cold sweat on her forehead kept sliding down, revealing the nervousness and panic in her heart.
Jing Zhi held the gun to Zheng yuluos head. He slowly approached her and finally pressed his body against hers.
Zheng yuluo couldnt move at all, and she didnt dare to move. She was afraid that she would lose her life if she identally angered Jing Zhi. Shepletely ignored how intimate their position was at the moment.
Leave?
The corners of Jing Zhis lips lifted into a smile.
However, there was no trace of a smile in his dark eyes.
Where are you going? To hell? Oh, if thats the case, Im quite familiar with that ce, I can give you a lift!
His fingers ran across Zheng yuluos tender and white face. The touch was cold, even colder than the snow outside. It was not human at all.
Zheng yuluo felt as if she had been stroked by a venomous snake, and her hair stood on end!
If Jing Zhi hadnt held her tightly against the wall, she would have been so scared that she would have fallen to the ground.
However, youre so beautiful that any mans heart would be moved by your face. Before you go to hell, I can send you to heaven and let you have a taste of the beauty of being a woman.
As he spoke, he still held the gun in his right hand and pressed it against Zheng yuluos forehead. He slowly slid the gun down from her cheeks.
His hands were as cold as snow because he had been out of the room for too long.
He touched Zheng yuluos neck and corbone, making her shiver involuntarily.
Oh, little baby, dont be afraid. Ill make you happy. Ill be your first man. Youll never forget me in this lifetime!
His voice was gentle and tender, as if he was saying the most touching words of love to the person he loved the most.
However, his eyes were cold and cruel, as if he was going to tear Zheng yuluo apart in the next moment!
Hisrge hand slid to her chest.
A 16-year-old girls body had not fully developed, but she already had all the capital that a woman should have.
He touched her body through her clothes.
Zheng yuluos tears fell uncontrobly.
Her body had never been touched by a man, and she had never been humiliated like this!
Chapter 948
Chapter 948: Chapter 948-falling into a trap
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo couldnt help but cry out in pain as her tender part was pinched hard and the pain came from her chest.
Let go of me!
Shh! Little darling, dont say anything. Didnt you say it very nicely just now? One more time, louder, I like it!
Jing Zhis lips almost touched Zheng yuluos lips, and he exerted more force.
He was saying such flirtatious words, but there was no lust in his eyes.
It was obvious that he was just venting his anger.
Zheng yuluos skin was fair, and she would usually have arge red patch if she identally knocked into something. She did not need to take off her clothes to know that her chest must be full of blue and purple fingerprints now!
Her body was trembling and her teeth were chattering. She tried to push Jing Zhi away, but he got even closer to her.
She raised her head in embarrassment, her beautiful eyes filled with resentment.Release me! I have no grudges with you. Im here to find my friend. Ive already apologized for going to the wrong ce! If you want to kill me, just go ahead and kill me! Trickery| What kind of hero are you?
Jing Zhi pressed her against the wall, not giving her any room to struggle. His big hand went directly under Zheng yuluos sweater, caressed her slender waist, and then climbed up her tall mountain.
The cold touch made Zheng yuluo feel extremely ufortable. A girls sense of shame made her want to die.
She couldnt understand why she had been beaten up so many times by Sean, or humiliated by him!
Ive never been a hero, dont you know that? I can kill people like cutting tofu, and of course, being a hooligan is my strong point! However, youre wrong about one thing!
Zheng yuluo bit her lip hard. After a while, she asked hatefully,What did I say wrong?
Our grudges have long since been uncountable. What, have you forgotten all of it?
As Jing Zhi spoke, his cold hands moved from one of Zheng yuluos peaks to another, and then continued to explore.
Zheng yuluo stopped him in a panic, holding his left arm with all her strength, refusing to let him go any further.
I dont even know you! How could I have a grudge against you? Arent you afraid that Ill call the police and theyll arrest you? If you want a woman, there are plenty of other ces!
Jing Zhis hand was blocked by Zheng yuluo with all his might, but he didnt force it. He didnt move his hand down at all. He didnt show any mercy.
Zheng yuluo felt extremely embarrassed. Jing Zhis strength was so strong that she suspected that she would be crushed by him the next moment!
There was nofort to speak of. There was a burning pain, and Zheng yuluos tears kept falling like a broken string of pearls.
There are many women in other ces, but I dont like them. Although your twin sister looks exactly like you, I still dont like her! I only want you! Zheng yuluo! Torturing you is the greatest joy in my life!
Jing Zhis cold and cruel voice echoed in the room.
The sun gradually disappeared from the horizon, and the room became extremely dark.
In the pitch-ck room, all his senses were magnified.
Hearing, touch, and boundless fear.
Zheng yuluo was on the verge of a breakdown!
Why did she have to encounter such a thing! She was already living a hard life, and her guilt was suffocating her. Why did she have to endure the humiliation of a strange man?
Zheng yuluo suddenly leaned on Jing Zhis shoulder, lowered her head, and bit him hard.
Jing Zhi was wearing a bulletproof suit that the assassin organization had specially made for him. Even if Zheng yuluo had a mouthful of steel teeth, she couldnt bite through it.
At this moment, he hoped that he would be bitten by Zheng yuluo, because in this way, Zheng yuluo would definitelye into contact with his blood. At that time, even the gods would not be able to save her life!
Youre overestimating yourself,Jing Zhi sneered.
Zheng yuluo had been out alone for the past few years. Although she was quiet and did not like to talk, her knowledge was more than one or two levels higher than ordinary girls.
As soon as she bit him, she knew that Jing Zhi was wearing a bulletproof suit or something. She couldnt bite him at all.
She hit Jing Zhi like a crazy woman, but Jing Zhi didnt care about the pain at all.
He turned on the light and the room suddenly brightened. Zheng yuluo subconsciously covered her eyes with her hands.
After a while, she finally got used to the light in the room.
She raised her head to look at Jing Zhi. She waspletely stunned when she saw his face.
How could there be such a handsome man in this world!
This waspletely different from the Sean she had seen before!
How could a person change his appearance so freely? This was impossible!
But their voices were clearly the same person s!
No, no, no, thats not right!
Why did the man in front of her look so familiar?!
Who are you?!
Under the light, the fear and panic in Zheng yuluos eyes were clear. Jing Zhi admired her helplessness and pity at the moment.
Back then, he was even more helpless and pitiful than she was!
Jing Zhi grinned, showing his white teeth. Im Sean, one of the top 100 assassins in the world, mo Mei. Or perhaps, you might be more familiar with another very nice name of mine!
He was indeed Sean!
Zheng yuluo felt like she had fallen into an ice cer!
He was an assassin!
No wonder he killed without blinking!
Zheng yuluo was about to ask him what his other name was when she saw something flying toward Jing Zhi from behind.
She didnt remind him to hide. At this moment, she wanted to kill this demon who had humiliated her!
A secondter, a strong tranquilizer was injected into Jing Zhis neck.
Normal anesthesia or even bullets wouldnt have been able to do much damage to him.
However, his consciousness quickly blurred and his limbs became stiff. He could not turn around to see who had shot him!
Other than the Virus Research Institute, which had such a strong anesthetic that could instantly make him lose his ability to move, there was no other ce!
Terrible!
He had fallen into a trap!
Jing Zhi realizedter that there were more than two people following Zheng yuluo. There were many other people who had been hiding. He had a strong perception, but he did not notice them!
He lowered his head stiffly and slowly, looking at Zheng yuluo in his arms in disbelief. When did she join forces with the people from the Virus Research Institute?
It was her again!
Seven yearster, he had once again fallen into Zheng yuluos hands!
Jing Zhi slowly closed his eyes. He could no longer resist the strong power of the medicine. He fell into darkness and fell to the ground on his back.
Chapter 949
Chapter 949: He is Jing Zhi!
Trantor: 549690339
With a loud plop, the man who had pressed Zheng yuluo against the wall fell to the floor.
Just from the sound, one could tell that it would be very, very painful.
However, that arrogant and ruthless man didnt feel pain at all. He hadpletely fainted.
Zheng yuluo found it hard to believe.
The demon died just like that?
Who had saved her?
She was still curled up against the wall, looking around nervously.
Outside the window, a figure suddenly crashed into the window.
BOOM! The floor-to-ceiling window waspletely shattered. A Man in ck barged in, followed by three middle-aged men with blonde hair and blue eyes.
The wolf had just fallen, and a fierce tiger appeared in front of him!
Zheng yuluo was so scared that her heart almost stopped!
She didnt know that Jing Zhi had been drugged. She only thought that Jing Zhi had been killed by these people.
Although she was saved, these people looked like they could kill without blinking, so the fear in her heart did not decrease but increased.
Being tortured by Sean alone was better than being tortured by four people!
Zheng yuluo did not even dare to cry now. She stood there stiffly and did not dare to try to escape for fear of angering the other party.
Among the four of them, the Man in ck who was the first to enter looked a little old, but his hands were agile and he had great strength.
He dragged Jing Zhi to the center of the room and ordered the other three,Fingerprint and Iris scan!
He had to make sure this was the real Jing Zhi. He had caught more than a dozen during this time, but they were all fake.
The three of them quickly took out the device. One of them took Jing Zhis hands and pressed all ten of his fingers on the device. A mechanical voice came from the device. The verification was sessful!
Did he seed?
The four of them were instantly overjoyed. Their eight eyes were all emitting a burning light. Those who didnt know would think that the four of them had picked up gold!
If all ten fingers had been verified sessfully, then masakiyoshis probability of sess was more than 90%!
The other man immediately opened Jing Zhis eyes. The device flickered above his eyes, and the device said,The verification was sessful!
Thats great! We finally found him! Boss, hes real!
This time, I cant let him escape no matter what!
We can continue our experiment! Theres only one such good test subject in the world!
The three underlings couldnt help but cheer in excitement,pletely ignoring Zheng yuluo, who was pale with fear.
The leader was also very happy, but he was much older than the three of them and moreposed.Put the mask on him and bring him backter!
After giving his instructions, he turned to look at Zheng yuluo.
Little girl, long time no see. I didnt expect you to help me again! I really have to thank you, otherwise today definitely wouldnt have gone so smoothly!
He had a typical Asian face, spoke Chinese very urately, and looked very amiable. He seemed to be an easy person to talk to.
Zheng yuluos brain was almost unable to think!
Everything that had happened today was strange!
What the hell is going on!
She took a deep breath and clenched her hands tightly together because she was too nervous.
I didnt help much. I should be the one thanking you. Thank you for saving me!
This man was actually thanking her!
Why?
Could it be that they were using her to kill Sean?
But she had never helped at all!
At this moment, seeing the movements and expressions of the four people, she already knew that Sean was not dead, but unconscious. It seemed like Sean was very important to them.
Zheng yuluo did not know whether the person in front of her was good or bad, but it seemed that he was much easier to talk to than Sean. No matter what, she had to be polite to the other party first. One should not hit a smiling person. If she was sincere and grateful to the other party, she might be able to escape this disaster.
But I dont think I know you. Have we met before?
The man suddenlyughed out loud. There was 30% madness and 70% mockery in hisughter. Zheng yuluo felt very ufortable listening to it, as if she had just asked a very stupid question.
Oh, little girl, it seems that you dont remember me! Thats right, for someone as heartless as you, youve only seen me once seven years ago. Of course, youve long forgotten about me!
Zheng yuluo frowned. Seven years ago?
The year Jing Zhi went missing?
The man slowly took off the hat that covered half of his face, revealing an old but kind face in front of Zheng yuluo.
Although his tone was gentle and his face looked like a kind uncle next door, Zheng yuluos face turned pale the moment she saw his face!
She looked at the man in front of her in disbelief. She could no longer support her body and fell to the ground.
Fear and anger instantly engulfed her entire body!
This kind of fear and anger made her feel even more painful and helpless than when Sean had pushed her against the wall with a gun to her head!
It was him!
He was the one who had taken Jing Zhi away from her seven years ago.
She would never forget this face for the rest of her life!
For the past seven years, she had had countless nightmares because of this face! In the dream, he was the one who wanted to kill her and Jing Zhi.
Combined with what he had just said, as well as the notes and text messages she had received today, Zheng yuluo suddenly looked at the unconscious man lying on the ground, who was being toyed with by the other three Men in ck.
If Zheng yuluo still did not know who was lying on the ground, she would have lived all these years in vain!
Jing Zhi!
He was Jing Zhi!
No wonder he knew her name!
No wonder he hated her so much!
She had been looking for him for so long, but she never knew that they had already met!
No wonder she found him so familiar!
His eyes and eyebrows were very simr to Jing Yiran.
Zheng yuluo realized Jing Zhis identity and wanted to shoot herself.
Why?
Jing Zhi had escaped with great difficulty, but because of her, he was caught by this person again.
She hated herself to death!
Big drops of tears fell from Zheng yuluos eyes, and the pain in her heart spread to her limbs and bones, drowning her in an instant!
At that moment, she forgot all her fears and forgot that the four men could take her life at any time. She threw herself at Jing Zhi and hugged him tightly. She screamed at the man in the lead,You let him go! Ill go with you, and you can do whatever you want!
Her voice was filled with heart-wrenching grief.
It was as if she didnt care about anyone else in the world, and she didnt care about her own life at all. She only wanted to protect the unconscious man.
She already owed him once. This time, she would not let these four take Jing Zhi away again, even if she had to give up her life.

Chapter 950: I lost him again
Trantor: 549690339
The man in the lead did not take Zheng yuluo seriously at all.
He could kill a weak sixteen-year-old girl with one finger. No matter how ruthless he was, she would not pose any threat.
He didnt kill Zheng yuluo because he thought that the girl was their Lucky Star. If Jing Zhi ran away again, he could try to get Jing Zhi back from her.
Back then, he had been looking for an opportunity to strike, but Jing Zhi was always protected wherever he went. Although he did not have as many people as Jing Rui, Jing Zhi was the descendant of the Jing family, and his bodyguards were not ordinary people.
He had originally wanted to wait for another year or so, but Zheng yuluo had directly sent her to him. There was no reason for him to not want her!
It was the same this time. If it hadnt been for Zheng yuluo, Jing Zhi would have disappeared without a trace after killing the man. There would have been no ws at all, and they would not have been able to catch Jing Zhi.
Little girl, youd better leave now while Im in a good mood. Otherwise, if you cry and make a fusster, I wont be as easy to talk to as I am now!
Zheng yuluo had nothing to fear now. The person she had tried so hard to find was right in front of her. Even if she died, she had to protect Jing Zhi.
She hugged Jing Zhi tightly and refused to let go.
You were the one who sent me the note and the text message. Youve been using me, havent you?
Zheng yuluos voice was a little shrill, and her tone was full of sadness.
She wanted to apologize to Jing Zhi. She wanted to say that she had made a mistake again, but it was useless to say anything now.
Jing Zhi couldnt hear her, and even if he could, he wouldnt forgive her.
Zheng yuluo had already forgotten everything Jing Zhi had done to her and all the pain she had suffered. In her heart, even if Jing Zhi wanted to kill her, she would not resist orin.
Even she herself felt that she deserved to die, let alone Jing Zhi.
Just now, those few people were talking about some test subject, and her heart ached terribly.
Jing Zhi was a living human being, and they were using him as a test subject!
He was simply heartless!
The Man in ck disdained to lie to a sixteen-year-old girl. He admitted frankly,Thats right, its me! Havent you been looking for him? I found it for you, shouldnt you be thanking me?
Thanks?
In your dreams!
Zheng yuluo wanted to kill the man in front of her right now. How could she thank him?
Yes, Ive found him! So, you cant take him away! Dont you need test subjects? Ill go with you and be your test subject!
The Man in ckughed as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He then said cruelly,Youre not even worthy to be a test subject! The virus in Jing Zhis body was one of a kind in the world. He was a high-level man, so he was the best test subject. Get lost, or my three men will break your neck!
The kindness on his face was destroyed by the cruel look on his face. His facial features were ferocious and crazy, like a madman who had just run out of a mental hospital.
Jing Zhi killed two of my men. I didnt kill him, and I didnt kill you either. You should be thanking me on your knees! They were just following you and acting as bait to attract Jing Zhi, but they were killed without doing anything. If we dont bring Jing Zhi back, Ill lose my head too!
Zheng yuluo hugged Jing Zhi in fear. She finally realized who Jing Zhi had killed with those two shots.
She had misunderstood Jing Zhi.
She was being followed, but she didnt realize it!
It was Jing Zhi who had helped her kill the two men!
At that time, she was cursing him in her heart and calling him a demon!
Zheng yuluo, youre such an idiot!
Zheng yuluo cursed herself ten thousand times in her heart, but the one who opened her mouth to curse was the Man in ck. Youre not human! You took Jing Zhi away from his parents when he was ten years old and used him as a test subject. Youre a lunatic! I will never hand him over to you. Youvemitted so many evil deeds, and youll definitely receive retribution!
The three underlings did not understand Chinese, but they knew that Zheng yuluo was definitely not saying anything good. They stared at Zheng yuluo with cold faces, waiting for their boss to give the order to kill this girl who was in the way.
In fact, the three Western men looked at Zheng yuluo with a hint of surprise and greed in their eyes. They had been hiding here and there recently, and it had been a long time since they had tasted a woman.
Zheng yuluos appearance was shockingly beautiful. Her figure was slim and her skin was smooth. Even though she was wearing ordinary clothes, it could not hide her temperament and charm of a ssical beauty.
Especially now that the beauty was in tears and looked so pitiful, it aroused the mans strong desire to possess her.
Zheng yuluo knew that she was beautiful, but in recent years, she did not care about her appearance at all. She did not expect the three of them to have feelings for her.
She didnt want to leave or even let go of Jing Zhi. She kept holding Jing Zhi in her arms for fear that he would be taken away by these people again.
The Man in ck was not interested in women. To him, nothing was more important than immortality! Jing Zhis body was rted to the huge secret of extending his life, so he couldnt let his three men mess with Zheng yuluo.
This young girl would be useful in the future!
He was in a hurry to leave with Jing Zhi. He didnt want to waste any more time talking to Zheng yuluo. He made a gesture to his men, then jumped out of the window and disappeared into the night.
Although the three men were extremely unwilling, they didnt dare to disobey their bosss order. They knocked Zheng yuluo out with one palm, picked up Jing Zhi, and disappeared.
When Zheng yuluo woke up with a splitting headache, Jing Zhi was no longer beside her.
The sky was already slightly bright, and the sun was gradually rising, but Zheng yuluo could not feel the slightest warmth. Her whole body seemed to be soaked in ice and snow, and she was cold from head to toe.
She got up from the floor in a daze, and her arm identally touched her chest. A sharp pain came, which made her slightly more awake.
The scene from yesterday shed in front of her eyes. Jing Zhis cold hands seemed to still be on her chest, kneading it fiercely.
His hand was so cold that it didnt feel like a human hand at all.
Zheng yuluo realized that Jing Zhis hands were so cold that they must have been following her. Otherwise, he wouldnt have known that she was being followed and wouldnt have killed them.
She had found Jing Zhi. She had been looking for him for seven years.
But she would rather not have found Jing Zhi.
This way, Jing Zhi wouldnt be taken away again.
Zheng yuluo slowly squatted down, covered her face, and burst into tears.

Chapter 951: Not bad to feel
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi thought he kept hearing the sound of a woman crying in his dream. The sound was so sad that it broke his heart.
Fortunately, for some reason, the crying stopped, and his world becamepletely quiet.
When he woke up again, he saw the familiar white room and arge number of instruments connected to his body. The images fromst night came one after another. He knew that he had been captured again.
However, this time, he did not panic at all. He believed that he could escape this ce again.
Jing Zhi wanted to get up, but he found that his whole body was sore and weak. He couldnt use any strength at all, and his head was dizzy.
He was extremely familiar with these symptoms. Arge amount of his blood had been drawn out, causing him to suffer from severe anemia.
Moreover, his body had been injected with arge amount of muscle and nerve paralysis drugs, and his hands and feet were all out of control.
It seemed that those paranoids had finally realized how idiotic they had been in letting him go.
Jing Zhi didnt know how long he had been unconscious or where he was now, but fortunately, his memory wasnt damaged. He remembered everything he needed to remember.
There were peopleing in and out of the room, fully armed to check his physical condition.
After a while, Jing Zhi saw his old acquaintance.
He couldnt help but grin,Hi, Cheryl! Long time no see! Youve be more beautiful! What kind of elixir did you eat recently? Or did the Research Institute develop a new type of virus?
Shuyin grabbed Jing Zhis arm with her gloved hand and injected him with an injection.
She was wearing a protective ss Mask that only revealed her eyes. There was no expression on her face, but she was a little speechless.
He could tell that she had be prettier even though she was dressed like this?
And they had just metst Christmas. She had even told Jing Zhi the whereabouts of several researchers, but he had said that it had been a long time since they hadst met. He was really good at acting!
He was really stupid. The Boss had just saved him with great difficulty, but he fell back in again!
Fortunately, her and Peters identities had not been exposed before. Otherwise, they would not have been able to sneak in.
Shuyin didnt respond to Jing Zhi. She was busy recording all the data and carefully observing Jing Zhis physical condition.
Cheryl, I feel so ufortable all over. Am I going to die? Its all that damned womans fault. Otherwise, I definitely wouldnt have been caught! Do me a favor. If I die, you must not let that woman go. You must capture her and use her body for all kinds of experiments!
Dont worry, you wont die!
Shuyin acted as if she didnt know Jing Zhi at all. She was cold and arrogant, just like how she used to look after Jing Zhi.
She had long learned how to disguise herself, or she wouldnt have been able to live until today.
If she exposed her rtionship with Jing Zhi, Jing Zhi wouldnt be affected, but she would probably be killed. The Research Institute was very cruel to traitors.
Shuyin didnt know who the d * MN woman Jing Zhi was talking about was, but she had heard about it when she came herest night. Jing Zhi had fallen into the hands of the same woman seven years ago, and she didnt know what kind of woman she was.
She couldnt help butugh when she saw how Jing Zhi was gritting his teeth in hatred.
If that woman had really caused Jing Zhis death, the Boss would have been the first one toe after her. It was impossible for her to have brought Jing Zhi here for the experiment.
She reced Jing Zhis medicine with glucose and gave it to him.
Jing Zhi knew that she was changing his medicine again. He was grateful, but the words that came out of his mouth were like those of a naughty boy.
Even if I die under a peony and be a ghost, Ill still be dissolute. Although that womans character isnt very good and she always scammed me, shes really beautiful! Before I fainted, I was still making out with her. That feeling was reallyfortable!
Jing Zhi had never touched a woman in his life. Yesterday was the first time he had experienced a young girls tender body. He didnt think much of it at that time, but now he was reminiscing!
Shuyins face darkened. No wonder Jing Zhi was caught so easily. He had been captivated by her beauty yesterday!
The Boss almost went crazy when he found out that he had been caughtst night!
It was not an injustice for this man to fall into the hands of a woman!
She really wanted to disfigure Jing Zhis handsome face.
If he had not been caught, she would not have needed toe back at all!
This wasnt a ce for humans to stay. Their lives could be in danger at any time.
Luckily, he wasnt her brother. If he was, she would have beaten Jing Zhi to a pulp.
She shook her head gently and reminded him,Dont even think about running away this time. These muscle and nerve numbing drugs will only work for seven days. Youll be in a vegetative state for the next week!
Jing Zhi knew that Shuyin was trying to remind him that even if she changed the medicine for him, he wouldnt be able to move for the next seven days. It would take at least a week before he could walk again.
After Shuyin finished speaking, she nced at Jing Zhi, then turned around and left the room.
In another top-secret room in A city, North and his confidants were discussing how to deal with Jing Zhi.
They had nned to send Jing Zhi to the research base deep in the desert, but they had received news this morning that their secret base had been blown up.
Several of their bases in North America and Africa had already been destroyed, and now even the most confidential one had been destroyed. For a moment, they had no ce to put Jing Zhi.
North was furious. Only his own people knew about his secret base, and only Andrew knew about it. Now that it had been discovered and destroyed, the first thing he suspected was that Andrew had leaked the secret!
He red at his men with vicious eyes and shouted angrily,We cant reveal the fact that weve found Sean to the killer organization! Hes our private property. This time, Andrew is not allowed to interfere!
However, he didnt let his men leak the secret, but the secret spread to the killer organization at lightning speed, and Andrew soon found out.
It was not the researchers at the Virus Research Institute who leaked the information, but Jing Rui.
It was Jing Rui who had blown up the desert base.
Jing Zhi had been so furious that night when he was captured by the Virus Research Institute that he ordered his men to destroy the base without hesitation.
The reason why he leaked the information to the assassin organization was to make the assassin organization send him back to A city.
Arge number of Jing Zhis bodyguards in A city had been killed by the Virus Research Institute. Otherwise, Jing Zhi wouldnt have been taken away so easily.
The situation was getting serious and Jing Rui was worried about Jing Zhi. He wanted to go back and solve the problem himself.
Chapter 952
Chapter 952: Traveling together
Trantor: 549690339
When the killer organization found out that Jing Zhi was still alive, they immediately sent people to A city to get him.
As an elite of the killers organization, Jing Rui was sent along with six other killers, including Zishan.
As a matter of fact, the killer organization was very divided now. Andrew could not control the whole situation alone, and Jing Ruis men had more power, which was why Jing Rui was sent out.
It was only after they got on the ne that Jing Rui realized that Zishan was on the same ne as him.
He frowned.
Normally, killers would not take the same flight. As far as he knew, Zishans original flight was not this one.
Zishan did not seem surprised to see Jing Rui.
She was wearing a light purple sportswear with a ck down jacket over it. Her hair was tied up in a high ponytail, and she looked young and full of energy, like a gentle girl next door. No one knew that she was an executioner who killed without blinking.
Zishan sat down in the empty seat beside Jing Rui and picked up the newspaper to read.
A few minutester, Zishan looked at Jing Rui and suddenly said,
Ray, what a coincidence to see you here!
Zishan greeted Jing Rui in a clear voice, but Jing Rui closed his eyes and started to rest as if he did not hear anything.
Being ignored, Zishan felt a little angry.
She had been following Jing Rui all this time. Although she would lose him sometimes, she felt that Jing Rui had a special background.
For such a powerful man, Zi Shans initial dissatisfaction andpetitiveness had turned into admiration and affection.
Jing Rui had been ignoring her, but she had be more and more courageous. She had even changed her flight for him.
She wanted to know Jing Ruis real identity, but she could not find anything no matter how hard she tried. So she would not let go of any chance to be with Jing Rui.
The ne was going straight to A city, and Jing Rui could not avoid her this time.
She could stay with Jing Rui for at least ten hours.
Ray, you dont remember me? We were primary school ssmates! We both went to A citys primary school and were good friends!
ording to Zishans information, Jing Rui was most likely from A city, but his resume showed that he was from Mysia of mixed blood, had lost both his parents, and had grown up in an orphanage.
She wanted to test Jing Ruis reaction to A city.
Unfortunately, she was destined to be disappointed.
Jing Ruis mental strength was strong enough that he would not be affected by anything.
Zishan had gone to school, like many other children. She probably did not know that Jing Rui had never gone to primary school. He had already finished all the courses in primary school, junior high school and Senior High School with a private tutor before he was ten years old. Then he officially entered Harvard and graduated at twelve. He had no ssmates in primary school!
Jing Rui did not respond, but Zishan did not give up.
She kept asking Jing Rui questions like an ordinary girl. People might think that they were old ssmates who had not seen each other for years.
Killers had their own quirks. Zishan knew that Jing Rui did not like to be touched, and she did not like it either.
Body contact was a taboo between killers. Everyone would usually tacitly keep a certain distance.
Zishan looked at Jing Ruis arm and suddenly reached out to hold him.
However, before she could touch him, Jing Rui opened his eyes and looked at Zi Shan coldly.
The shock from his gaze was too strong, and Zi Shans hand was forced back.
However, her reaction was extremely fast. She smiled and said,Youre finally willing to look at me? I thought you were going to pretend to sleep forever! How did I offend you? You dont even want to talk to me!
Her voice was pleasant, and the mask she was wearing was extremely exquisite and beautiful. When she said this, there was no sense of unruliness at all. Instead, it made people feel that she was pleasing to the eye, cute, and lively.
A few male passengers on the other side of the aisle were already looking at Zi Shans face frequently, wanting to talk to her.
Only Jing Rui remained calm. He looked away after a nce at Zi Shan and said in a low voice,Shut your mouth and get to the back!
He did not like to have such a talkative person around him. She pretended to be lively, cute, innocent, and kind, but no one knew better than Jing Rui what kind of person Zishan was. She was not cute or kind at all!
She was someone who would do anything to achieve her goals!
To some extent, he and Zishan were the same kind of people.
However, the difference between him and Zishan was that he was a righteous person. What he took was based on what he gave. He was deeply influenced by his father, and he was righteous in his bones.
Zishan was even more scheming than him. She did things without considering other peoples feelings and looked like a spoiled youngdy.
Jing Rui would never work with such a person, so he did not respond to anything Zishan said.
Zishan was suddenly scolded, and her tears were about to fall.
Her long eyshes trembled slightly, and her beautiful eyes were filled with tears. She looked helpless and pitiful.
The people around them could not stand it anymore. Theyforted Zishan and med Jing Rui.
Jing Rui was indifferent to all the usations and Zishans grievances.
However, Jing Rui had a lot of doubts about Zishan. Who was this person?
He always had a vague feeling that Zishan was targeting him!
It seemed that Zishan was trying to get close to him because she liked him, but Jing Rui did not believe that Zishan would fall for him.
At least, he knew very well how it was like to love someone. His parents loved each other very much and would never deliberately embarrass the other party. Instead, they would always think for the other party and make sacrifices for the other party.
Zishan, however, used her tears to push him to the forefront of the storm, causing the people around him to criticize him.
This was not love.
This was just a form of exploitation and possessiveness.
He originally had a good impression of this young girl who had struggled to survive in the assassin organization and was full of interest in her mysterious background. But now, in his eyes, Zishan was no different from anyone else.
After flying for more than two hours, the ne was forced tond due to a malfunction.
When the ne took off again, Zishan suddenly realized that Jing Rui had disappeared.
Could it be that the ne was descending because Jing Rui wanted to leave the ne to avoid her?
How could this be possible?
The ne belonged to a powerful andrge airlinepany. How could it surrender for Jing Rui?
Zishan had no idea that Jing Rui was one of the shareholders of the airline.
In order to avoid Zishan and get in touch with his men, he was forced to reveal his strength, and this strength was only the tip of the iceberg of his huge power.
Chapter 953
Chapter 953: Who did this?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui had changed to a helicopter and arrived in A city before Zishan.
Jing Rui was furious that Jing Zhi had been caught again.
Not to mention that Jing Zhi had lost a lot of his blood to those lunatics, and he was disabled.
He had thought that with Jing Zhis skills and his secret protection, Jing Zhi would at most be slightly injured and wouldnt be caught again. He didnt expect that Jing Zhis attention would be greatly distracted because of Zheng yuluo and he would be caught unprepared.
In order to make Jing Zhi suffer less, he had Peter and Shuyin return to North overnight.
In order to avoid suspicion from North, he also arranged for others to join them.
As a result, Jing Rui lost a lot of men.
He began to seriously consider whether he should kill Zheng yuluo directly.
In the end, he didnt touch Zheng yuluo. This was Jing Zhis own business, and it was better to leave Zheng yuluo to him to handle.
Jing Rui had been sent to A city to take Jing Zhi. His main task was not to kill, but to kill.
The cooperation between the tworge organizations had beenpletely broken, and both sides had fallen out.
For Jing Rui, this was the best time to use the killer organization to get rid of the Virus Research Institute.
In the Zheng family, Zheng yuluo had been suffering from a high fever for two days. She was a little dizzy from the fever. She had nightmares and kept calling Jing Zhis name.
On the third night, after Zheng Yuwei flew back from Germany, she hugged her and cried for her non-stop. Only then did she pull her out of her nightmare.
After Zheng yuluo woke up, it was as if she had lost her soul. She refused to speak or eat.
Zheng Yuwei was so anxious that she was going crazy. She didnt know how her sister became like this again. Seven years ago, when Jing Zhi had just disappeared, her sister was like this. She didnt eat or drink, and didnt even want to see anyone.
Zheng yuluo had not taken a shower for three days. Because of her fever, she had sweated a lot. Zheng Yuwei took a hot towel and wiped her body for her.
However, when she took off her sisters sweater, she was shocked by the bruises on her sisters chest!
After that, Zheng Yuwei was filled with iparable anger!
The two sisters were twins. Not only were their looks extremely simr, but their bodies were also simr. The only difference was that Zheng yuluos little white rabbit was plumper than Zheng Yuwei S. Zheng yuluo had not grown much in the past two years, and her breasts had almost all grown.
However, Zheng yuluo was an introvert. She would not show her chest to her sister at all. She was more innocent and ignorant than Zheng Yuwei, and knew nothing about the affairs between men and women.
Zheng Yuwei suddenly saw arge bruise on her sisters chest, and her heart ached so much that even her voice changed!
Sister, who did this? Which bastard dared to attack you! Did you fall sick because of this? Sister, just you wait, Im going to kill that bastard now and take revenge for you!
Zheng yuluo didnt react when she heard her sisters words, but when she heard that her sister was going to kill Jing Zhi, she immediately hugged Zheng Yuweis arm.Wei Wei, dont go!
Zheng Yuweis face was pale with anger, but she had no ce to vent her anger. Even if she wanted to go out and kill someone, she didnt know who to kill!
Her body trembled slightly as she gritted her teeth and asked,Sister, who hurt you? Who is it?
Zheng yuluo pulled up the nket and covered herself. She said softly,Dont ask anymore, Weiwei. It has nothing to do with you. Just leave it at that!
Zheng Yuwei looked at her sister in disbelief. Her body was so bruised that it was obvious that someone had kneaded it with great force. Her sister had always been conservative. How could she not be angry at all after suffering such a big grievance? she even didnt want to pursue it!
Although his sister was quiet and didnt like to talk, this didnt mean that she was someone who would swallow her anger and not care about her own innocence!
Sister, are you ... In love? Zheng Yuwei carefully probed.
Could it be her sisters boyfriend?
Zheng yuluos face was pale as she shook her head gently. There was no shyness in her expression, as if love had nothing to do with her.
Zheng Yuwei was relieved. It was good that her sister was not in love and had not been cheated of her feelings.
However, who was it that had shamelessly bullied her sister!
A name shed through Zheng Yuweis mind, but she felt that it was impossible.
That person had been missing for seven years. Why would he suddenly appear and bully her sister?
She still wanted to ask what was going on, but when she looked up, she saw her sisters sad and pained expression. She didnt know when her tears had fallen again.
Zheng Yuwei suddenly didnt dare to ask anymore. She was afraid that her sister would be too sad when she thought of this matter, so she could only suppress the doubts and anger in her heart.
She quietly wiped her sisters body. Fortunately, other than her chest, there were no signs of injury anywhere else.
She felt sad and heartbroken, wishing she could bear all the pain for her sister.
But ever since Jing Zhis disappearance, her sister was no longer the same sister she used to be. She buried all her worries deep in her heart and bore everything on her own. They could no longer go back to the time when they had nothing to say to each other.
Zheng Yuwei wiped her sisters body and helped her change into her pajamas, then she left the room.
Zheng yuluo watched her sister go out, pulled the nket over herself, and sobbed softly under the nket.
She didnt dare to tell anyone that she had found Jing Zhi and had harmed him.
She really wanted to go out and look for him now, but she didnt dare to. She didnt know what she would bring him!
To him, her search might not be of help, but a huge burden!
She was in pain and confusion.
In the middle of the night, Zheng yuluo got out of bed, put on her clothes, and quietly went out.
Zheng Yuwei didnt even bother to put on her down jacket. She kicked on her shoes and quickly chased after him.
It waste at night in the middle of winter. The cold air was very heavy and piercing. Zheng yuluo walked far away and stood in the cold wind for a long time before a taxi came. She got in the car and gradually drove away.
Zheng Yuwei quietly followed her sister. When she saw her getting into the taxi, she almost went crazy. It was definitely toote to drive home. Fortunately, another car came from behind. She got into the car and chased after the car that Zheng yuluo was in.
Soon, the car stopped in front of a vi. Zheng Yu alighted from the car and walked in.
Zheng Yuwei, who was in another taxi, was stunned.
This was Jing Yirans Vi!
Had Jing Yiran bullied her sister?
Or did Jing Zhie back and bully her sister?
Zheng Yuwei knew that Jing Yiran didnt like the two sisters, but no matter how much he hated them, he would never do such a thing to his sister.
He was an elder. He might hit and scold people, but he would never humiliate his sister on purpose.
In that case, there could only be one reason for her sister toe here sote at night.
She was doing this for Jing Zhi!
Chapter 954
Chapter 954: Weak point (1)
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng Yuweis expression wasplicated.
She actually felt guilty towards Jing Zhi. After all, she and her sister were the ones who drugged Jing Zhi, tied him up, and sent him to the bad guys.
But she was still angry that Jing Zhi bullied her sister.
But she knew that her sister was willing to atone for her sins in any way. Even if Jing Zhi wanted her life, she would give it to him without hesitation.
She wanted to do something for her sister, but to her disappointment, she realized that she could not do anything.
She sat in the taxi and waited outside silently. Her sister wouldnt be staying here tonight, so she had to go home. She just didnt know if Jing Zhi was in the vi and if he would bully her sister again.
Zheng yuluo came to Jing Yiran at midnight, but he was not asleep.
He was dressed in casual clothes with a down jacket over it, looking like he was ready to go out at any time.
Seeing Zheng yuluo, Jing Yiran got startled.
Before Zheng yuluo could speak, her tears fell first.
Uncle Jing, I ... I found Jing Zhi ... He said.
Her tears fell faster and faster, and she cried,But, I caused him to be captured again! You should quickly find someone to save him!
Jing Yiran let out a heavy sigh, but he didnt look surprised.Yes, I know.
Zheng yuluo raised her head, her eyes a little nk.Uncle Jing, you ... You know everything?
She didnt tell anyone about this, so how did Jing Yiran know?
Jing Yiran didnt know if he should me Zheng yuluo now. She had something to do with Jing Zhis arrest, but she couldnt be med for it all. She was probably thest person who wanted Jing Zhi to be arrested.
When Jing Yiran had first heard from Jing Yichen that Jing Zhi had been taken away again, he had been extremely angry. But after a few days, all he could feel was heartache and the urge to save his son.
He knew that Jing Rui had returned to the country again for Jing Zhi.
He trusted Jing Ruis ability very much. As long as he helped, he would be able to save his son.
However, his son was going to suffer again, so he really could not like Zheng yuluo.
Yuluo, itste, you should go home! Donte here again in the future, and dont look for ah Chi anymore. Lets go!
Uncle Jing!
Zheng yuluo felt that her heart was broken. She could tell that Jing Yiran was really against her.
She was crying in a depressed and sad way. Seeing Jing Yiran turn around and leave, she felt that she was not qualified to be here anymore.
She stood there in a daze for a while. In the empty vi, only her crying could be heard.
Someone gently held her shoulders and wiped her tears.
Sister, dont cry. Lets go home! He said.
Weiwei, why are you here? Zheng yuluos eyes widened.
I was worried about you, so I followed you out. Sister, I heard what you said just now. Dont worry, uncle Jing and the others will find a way to save Jing Zhi. From now on, just live your own life and dont look for him anymore, okay?
All of a sudden, she was not allowed to look for Jing Zhi anymore. Now that Jing Zhi had appeared, Zheng yuluo felt as if she hadpletely lost her goal and direction in life. Her heart was empty.
Would this really work?
She didnt know what she should do next if she didnt look for Jing Zhi.
In order to ensure that nothing went wrong with Jingzhi, North had put in ce manyyers of protective measures.
Only a few people knew where Jing Zhi was hiding.
Even Peter and Shu Yin had no idea where North had hidden their yers.
However, even though they didnt know the real location, they knew that the few ces they were at were just pretense.
In this way, it would be much easier to find Jing Rui.
However, in the beginning of the search, he couldnt leave Zishan and the other six people and go to other ces to look for people alone. Otherwise, it would be too suspicious.
Together with the other assassins, he approached the first location, fully armed.
Jing Rui knew that Shuyin was among them.
In order to make them believe that this was Jing Zhis hideout, North had deliberately left many doctors and researchers behind.
The result of the search disappointed the killers. Their target was not here at all. In order to force Jing Zhis true whereabouts, Zishan and the others began to interrogate him.
When it was time to extort a confession from Shuyin, Zishan pointed a gun at Shuyins hand and said coldly,Where are they? If you dont tell me, your beautiful hand will be crippled forever! Youll never be able to hold a scalpel again!
Shuyins mask had been taken off. She wore an ordinary white coat and knelt on the ground. Her long ck hair fell over her shoulders, making her skin look even fairer and more radiant.
It was a terrible feeling to be pointed at with a gun and kneeling.
It was obvious that the person who extorted her was a woman. Shu Yin knew that this person should be Zishan, who was ranked third among the new killers.
In the past, when the Virus Research Institute had a good rtionship with the killer organization, the people in the Research Institute had a deep understanding of the killers. This was because if they had to deal with someone, they could entrust the killer to kill them. They didnt have to pay any fees, and all the expenses were borne by the killer organization.
Because the Virus Research Institute also provided arge number of viruses to the killer organization for free, most of which were used to strengthen the physical fitness of the killers, the only person in the entire killer organization who had not been injected with the virus was Zishan.
That was why Shuyin had a very deep impression of Zishan and had followed her for a long time.
She had never seen Zishan in person, but she had seen her photo. At this moment, she could tell who Zishan was just from her figure.
Among the top three new killers in the killer organization, Shuyin had already seen the second and third ce. Only the first ce,lightning, was left.
Shuyin knelt down calmly and replied indifferently,I dont know where he is. Even if you kill me, I wont know.
Even if she knew, she wouldnt say it.
Shuyins cold attitude probably triggered Zishan. A fierce look shed in her eyes. Just as she was about to pull the trigger to kill this woman who didnt even take her seriously, the gun in her hand was kicked away.
Zishan turned around and said angrily,Lightning, what are you doing?
Lightning?
Shuyins body trembled slightly. She slowly turned her head and looked at the tall man who had saved her.Thank you!
Jing Rui looked at Shuyin.
Sure enough, her appearance was somewhat simr to Shu Chengshan, but her facial features were more delicate and her eyes were more beautiful. She probably looked like her mother.
But what surprised Jing Rui was not her outstanding appearance, but her calm demeanor.
Jing Rui looked away and said coldly to Zishan,Leave this person to me, you can go.

Chapter 955: Weakness (2)

Zishan was so infuriated by Jing Ruis words and tone that she almost fell over!
Whats with hismanding aura?
They were all at the same level, so there was no problem of who was themander!
She was the one who captured the prisoners, so she should be the one to extort a confession from them. The source of information should also belong to her. This was the rule! Jing Rui had been in the killer organization for so many years, so it was impossible for him not to know.
Zishan lowered his head and looked at the stunningly beautiful Shu Yin. He sneered,What, youre soft-hearted after seeing a beauty? So thats what you are! You kicked my gun away, so I have no other way? Hmph! I have a hundred ways to kill her!
As Zishan spoke, his fingers reached for Shuyins Adams apple.
However, before she could touch Shuyin, Jing Rui kicked her away.
Although Jing Rui did not use his full strength, Zi Shan still fell far away. Shey on the ground with blooding out of her mouth and did not get up for a long time.
She did not expect that Jing Rui would hit her.
It was all for a young doctor whom he had never met!
Zishan fiercely wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and forced himself to get up from the ground.
Her body was in so much pain that it felt like she was being pricked by needles, but Zi Shan endured it and didnt make a sound.
Are you going to fight me for this woman? Alright, bring it on! Ill keep youpany!
Jing Rui looked at her indifferently and said,Youre not worthy!
These three words were a great humiliation to Zi Shan. She had always beenpetitive and could not tolerate such belittlement.
Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly felt that these three words were somewhat familiar!
It was wrong!
Someone seemed to have said the same thing to her before!
The same expression, the same tone, and the same condescending attitude!
Zishans entire body trembled!
She seemed to know how to find out Jing Ruis identity.
She looked at Jing Rui and then at Shu Yin, who was kneeling on the ground. She engraved her face in her mind, then left slowly with her hands on her chest.
Only Shu Yin and Jing Rui were left in the area.
Shuyin stood up slowly. She looked at Jing Ruis in but cold face and thanked him again.Thank you, boss.
Jing Rui was slightly surprised. He did not expect Shuyin to recognize him immediately. After all, he had never revealed his identity as a killer. Shuyin should only know that he was the heir of family Jing and Jing Zhis brother.
All Shuyin knew was his real name and not his codename lightning.
However, he didnt hide it on purpose, so as long as Shuyin was smart and careful, it was normal for her to guess his identity.
He nodded slightly at Shuyin and said indifferently,Leave from the back. Peter is waiting for you there.
Alright, he said.
Shuyin only replied with one word, then turned around and walked towards the back.
After walking for a long time, Shuyin turned back and looked at Jing Rui, who was still standing there. Her heart moved, and the doubts she had previously surfaced again.
Why did Jing Rui protect her at all costs?
She knew very well how much she was worth. What she had done was not enough for Jing Rui to protect her.
And it was obvious that this was the first time she had met Jing Rui, and he had no other feelings for her.
She suppressed her doubts. If Jing Rui did not want her to know the reason, she would not be able to find it no matter how hard she tried.
It was always a good thing to be protected by a powerful person.
Shuyin consoled herself in her heart.
Otherwise, without him, her hand would really have been crippled by Zishan today. No matter how good her medical skills were, it was useless to deal with a top-tier assassin like Zishan. At most, she could only let her contract the virus without making a sound.
However, Zishan was very guarded against these. It seemed that he knew all kinds of viruses very well, so he basically had no chance to make a move.
Shuyin looked away. Jing Ruis ordinary face shed in her mind, and she thought of the other Jing Rui she had met before. She could not help but shake her head.
She had always known that the killer organizations would wear a special mask.
She had already guessed that Jing Rui was not her Boss, but a substitute.
The difference in their temperaments was too great. One was cold and calm, and it was impossible to guess his actual age. The other was just a tough-looking person who was weak inside. Other than his handsome face, he knew nothing else.
Even though she had not seen her Bosss face today, he gave her an inexplicable sense of security.
Shuyin liked to be Jing Ruis subordinate.
Jing Rui watched Shuyin leave without any expression on his face, but he was a little worried.
It was already hard enough to worry about Jing Zhi, and now there was Shu Yin. The pressure he faced was doubled.
Zishans personality was very overbearing. Although she let Shuyin off today, she would definitely find trouble with her in the future.
Jing Rui suddenly regretted promising Shu Chengshan to take care of his daughter.
After the matter here was settled, it was better to send Shuyin far away. Although A city was safer, she would be easily found here. Sending her to a ce where no one knew her was the safest.
She could start a new life in a new ce. She could fall in love, get married, and have children.
This way, he would fulfill his promise to Shucheng mountain.
The killer organization found nothing in this ce and then rushed to the next ce without stopping.
Although Zishan had been injured by Jing Rui, she acted as if nothing had happened and continued to interrogate her with the others.
However, she had already contacted her own forces to investigate Shu Yins identity.
Jing Rui was a man who did not interact with anyone. He was more ruthless than most killers and did not know what it meant to have tender feelings for women. It was strange that he suddenly wanted to protect a woman.
This was the first weakness that Jing Rui had ever revealed.
How could Zishan not grasp such a good handle!
Jing Rui didnt know that Zishan was investigating Shuyin. Even if he did, he wouldnt care. He only cared about Jing Zhi.
The seven of them had searched several ces without any results, so they had cked off.
Jing Rui changed his clothes, took off his mask and went to the ce where Jing Zhi was hidden with his men.
He would not attract any suspicion if he used his real identity.
He was Jing Zhis brother, so it was only right that he came to save him.
During this period of time, as long as the substitute did not appear, his cover would not be blown.
Jing Yichen had already arranged for the substitute to be kept under guard and not allowed to go out.
However, Liao Wei, the substitute, was not that obedient.
Chapter 956
Chapter 956: Zhu Bajie piggybacks his wife
Trantor: 549690339
In the middle of a cold night in A city, a huge explosion urred in arge textile factory on the outskirts.
For a time, the mes soared to the sky, and screams rose and fell.
The explosion was so sudden that Jing Zhi didnt even have time to react. He had no idea what had happened. If it werent for the explosion, he would probably still be in a deep sleep.
This ce waspletely unfamiliar to him. He had no idea where he was or when he had arrived. He felt as if he had been asleep for a long time.
He looked around and was shocked!
There was fire everywhere, even the nket under her body was on fire!
Jing Zhi couldnt stop coughing from the smoke. He climbed out of bed with difficulty. If he didnt get out of bed soon, he would catch fire as well.
Unfortunately, he had no strength in his body, and even walking was a problem. Otherwise, he wouldnt have been trapped here.
The fire at the door was getting more and more intense. Jing Zhi couldnt help but smile bitterly. Was he going to be burned to death instead of being killed by the virus?
Suddenly, a tall figure rushed in.
When Jing Zhi saw the persons face, he was slightly surprised. Then he grinned and said,Brother, I knew you woulde and save me! However, youre still more handsome like this. Dont wear those broken masks in the future!
Jing Ruis face waspletely different from how he used to look, but Jing Zhi could tell who he was just by his body shape and aura.
Jing Rui knew that Jing Zhi was fine when he heard him talking andughing.
To think that he was so worried outside that he didnt care about anything and just rushed in.
If he found out who had blown this ce up, he would definitely treat the culprit well!
Can you walk?
We can not! Brother, are you stupid? If I could walk, I would have run out a long time ago, okay?
Jing Ruis face darkened. No one had ever dared to say that he was stupid.
Seeing that Jing Zhi was half-dead, he had no choice but to forgive the patient.
He tore the wet towel in half and threw the other half to Jing Zhi.Cover your mouth. Otherwise, dont me me for noting to save you if you choke to death.
Jing Zhi was shocked when he saw Jing Ruiing to save him.
In fact, he only had a vague impression of his brother. He had forgotten what his rtionship with Jing Rui was like. He felt that Jing Rui was a cold man who would not fight for him.
But he was wrong.
After his incident, Shuyin and Peter had immediatelye to his side. He knew that it must have been his brothers arrangement.
Now, the fire was raging, and the aftermath of the explosion was still not over. Even a three-year-old child knew how dangerous it was to rush in.
However, Jing Rui rushed in without any hesitation.
He looked extremely cold, but his heart was soft and warm.
Brother, I wont die. Ive always had a long life. I want to live for a long, long time and protect you in the future!
Jing Rui did not say anything.
As long as his brother didnt cause any more trouble, he would be satisfied!
He picked Jing Zhi up from the ground, hesitated for a second, and carried him on his back.
Although he hated to be in close contact with others, this was a critical moment, and the person on his back was his younger brother, whom he had grown up with. He did not reject it too much. Other than the initial awkwardness, he quickly got used to it.
Even Jing Zhi himself felt awkward, let alone Jing Rui.
Because he was taller than Jing Rui, and he used to be so powerful. His strength and speed were far beyond the limits of a human being. He had always been proud of that, but now he had to be carried by his brother, which was really embarrassing.
Jing Rui felt bitter after carrying Jing Zhi on his back.
Jing Zhi might have forgotten himself, but he remembered clearly that he had carried Jing Zhi on his back when he was six years old.
At that time, Jing Zhi had just had a blood transfusion and was too weak to walk. So he carried Jing Zhi on his back and took him to the streets to watch the fun and buy food.
He still remembered how Jing Zhi had been as happy as a little bird, chirping non-stop and eating all kinds of snacks on his back.
He was only two years older than Jing Zhi, and it was a little difficult for him to carry the six-year-old Jing Zhi, but he had never said that he was tired.
Perhaps he had already known that he would have the responsibility to take care of Jing Zhi in the future, no matter how tired he was.
He was his brother, his only brother.
She was the only person Jing Zhi couldnt bear to forget after he lost his memory.
After so many years, he was carrying Jing Zhi again.
He had grown up and had enough strength to back Jing Zhi up, but he realized that Jing Zhi, who was 1.87 meters tall, was actually so light.
What kind of life had Jing Zhi been living the past few days?
How could he have lost so much weight?
Jing Zhis muscles had already shriveled up in just a few days. If he hade anyter, Jing Zhis muscles would have been permanently damaged.
Jing Ruis eyes turned red. He had to catch all the people who had mistreated Jing Zhi and avenge him!
A drop of cold tear suddenly fell from Jing Zhis hand, which was wrapped around Jing Ruis neck.
He wanted to hold his brother a little tighter, but the muscles and nerves in his arms were already numb, and he could not use any strength at all.
Jing Zhi leaned his head against Jing Ruis back and said in a low voice,Brother, dont cry. I wont be caught again.
Jing Rui did not speak. He looked up and carried Jing Zhi on his back as he sped through the sea of fire.
He wouldnt let Jing Zhi get caught again.
The scorching mes burned the skin of the two brothers, and the red light shone on their somewhat simr faces, covering them with ayer of Nirvana-like dazzling light.
The factory was huge and Jing Zhi was hidden in the center.
Jing Rui was running in the sea of fire. He was relying on his instinct to distinguish the direction.
From time to time, pieces of wood would fall from above and hit him. If he hadnt dodged quickly, he and Jing Zhi would have been dead.
Both of them hadrge areas of burns on their skin, but neither of them cared about the pain on their bodies. They were on full alert to avoid being identally hit.
Fortunately, Jing Rui had a strong memory. Even if many things had been burned or blown up by the explosives, he could still find the exit by following the way he came.
The moment they escaped the sea of fire, the two brothers heaved a sigh of relief.
Heavens! He had finally escaped! Who was so shameless as to set fire to me! Big brother, you have to turn that person into a roasted suckling pig for me!
Jing Zhi gritted his teeth in anger, but his childish tone made Jing Rui smile.
Little brother is fine, everything is fine!
Hey, brother, why do I remember a story about Zhu Bajie carrying his wife on his back?
Jing Ruis smile froze and he almost threw Jing Zhi off his back!
Who are you calling Pigsy?
If Zhu Bajie looked like him, would the king of the womand still like Tang Sanzang?
Shut up! Youre not allowed to speak!
Chapter 957
Chapter 957: Walking horizontally
Trantor: 549690339
After the explosion, the remaining leaders of the Virus Research Institute were either dead or injured. Head North was seriously injured. He was already very old, and if it werent for the various viruses that kept him alive, he wouldve died a long time ago.
Of course, viruses had both advantages and disadvantages. Some viruses could extend the lifespan of humans, but they also had a high price to pay.
Not only was North infertile, but he also had to endure bone-corroding pain all year round. His temper was more irritable than ordinary people, and his personality was bing more and more paranoid and crazy.
Many viruses directly modified human genes, which indirectly affected a persons personality.
It wasnt just North. Jing Zhi also had a warlike and bloodthirsty side.
However, the virus in his body was the most mature and perfect one so far, and the impact on his character had been reduced to the minimum.
Most of the doctors and researchers who were still alive had been captured by Jing Ruis men.
North had been imprisoned in family MUs Hospital. He controlled all the connections and wealth of the Virus Research Institute, and Jing Rui would not let him escape.
She was going to torture him in the future to avenge Jing Zhi.
When Jing Zhi heard that North had been arrested, he was so happy that he almost jumped out of bed.
Heughed wildly in his Ward.Hahaha! The old thing had finally fallen! He deserved it! Give him all kinds of injections and turn him into an idiot! Im going to draw his blood to y with him!
Fine, after I get the information I want from him, you can do whatever you want to him.
Jing Rui agreed without a second thought. It was North who had nned Jing Zhis capture, so Jing Zhi could do whatever he wanted to him.
Jing Zhi was in a good mood. He had many burns on his body, but they healed quickly without any treatment.
The only thing that pained him was that he had no strength in his body. He could not even lift his legs or stretch his arms.
It was all Zheng yuluos fault!
If it werent for her, he wouldnt have fallen into Norths trap!
Brother, help me catch Zheng yuluo! Shell be mine in the future, so Im going to settle the score with her!
Alright, Jing Rui nodded.
And her sister Zheng Yuwei! These twins arent good people, I have to teach them how to behave!
Alright, he said.
By the way, we cant let Andrew off either. Hes the most ruthless one! I didnt want to be a killer before, and he almost killed me! When you catch him, Im going to kill that old thing!
Alright, he said.
The conversation between the two brothers was like an adult coaxing a willful child. No matter what the child said, Jing Rui would agree.
Jing Zhi noticed it too. He grinned and said,Brother, why are you so good to me? Are you going to pluck the moon for me if I want it!
Aerospace technology is very advanced now. If you want to go to the moon, I can send you there when youre better.
Jing Ruis tone could not be any calmer, but it sounded like he was an arrogant tycoon, which made Jing Zhiugh.
He had such a powerful brother, and he always had the illusion that he could do whatever he wanted in the universe!
The two brothers were talking when Shu Yin pushed open the door and walked in.
She was wearing a white coat, simple white shoes, and washed jeans, which made her legs look long and slender.
Her long hair was tied up simply, revealing her delicate and beautiful face.
Jing Zhi stared at her and praised,Miss Shenyu, you werent this beautiful thest time I saw you, were you? Why is she getting more and more beautiful? Is it ...
Open your mouth!
Shu Yin said this word calmly and put a thermometer in Jing Zhis mouth to stop him from nagging.
She checked Jing Zhis injuries and saw that he was recovering well. She turned to look at Jing Rui.
He wasnt wearing a mask, and his handsome features were on full disy.
Shuyin was a little dazed. This face would only look harmonious on him. Although the substitute had a simr face to Jing Rui, she felt that something was wrong. She looked like a beggar in a dragon robe, awkward and unreal.
At this moment, even though he looked a little embarrassed because of the fire, it still could not hide his temperament and wisdom. He just sat there quietly, but he had a cold and Noble feeling that he controlled the world.
Fortunately, Shuyin was only dazed for a moment. She quickly recovered and said to Jing Rui,You shouldnt be sitting here in your current condition.
Before Jing Rui could speak, Jing Zhi interrupted,Thats right! Ive told you so many times, brother, youd better lie on the bed! Your injuries are more serious than mine, and your recovery ability is not as strong as mine. Why are you so disobedient?
He had a thermometer in his mouth, so his words were unclear. However, he liked to talk, and he spoke as if he was coaxing a child.
Jing Rui felt helpless.
He had realized that Jing Zhi had inherited his second uncles nagging genes. He could repeat the same thing many times without feeling tired at all!
Im fine,she said.
He knew his body well. He had suffered more serious injuries than this in the past, but he recovered quickly without much rest. This time, it looked like a serious injury, but it was actually just a superficial injury.
Shuyin walked to his side and touched Jing Ruis forehead.
Jing Rui grabbed Shuyins slender wrist out of reflex and tried to break it.
He only realized that he had overreacted halfway through his actions!
Shuyin probably just wanted to test his body temperature.
Shuyin couldnt help but take a deep breath when Jing Rui grabbed her wrist.
It was too painful!
She suspected that her wrist was going to be crushed by him!
Fortunately, Jing Rui let go of her hand quickly. If he continued to hold her hand, her hand would be ruined.
She had a good sense for high temperatures, but she couldnt tell for sure when Jing Zhis body temperature was lower than a normal human s. That was why she needed a thermometer to measure Jing Zhis temperature.
If she had known, she would have brought two thermometers!
Jing Zhi was also surprised by his brothers reaction. He called out in confusion,Brother?
Most killers didnt like to be touched, and Jing Zhi didnt like to be touched either, but he didnt react as strongly as Jing Rui. He wouldnt have any reaction if the doctor touched his forehead or gave him an injection.
Besides! Jing Zhi didnt think that his brother would reject him when he carried him! Could it be that her brother just didnt like to be touched by women?
Jing Rui retracted his hand and said expressionlessly,Im fine.
Shuyins face was a little pale as she rubbed her wrist. She was in so much pain that she almost cried, but she still reminded him dutifully,
Youre running a fever, about 39 degrees. You need an injection to bring down the fever.
Chapter 958
Chapter 958: She can not
Trantor: 549690339
Also, the burns on your body should be treated. If you dont like female doctors, Ill get a male doctor to help you apply medicine. Jing Zhi has a strong recovery ability, so he doesnt need any medicine. But you can t. If you don t, the wound will be inmed and the fever will get worse.
Although Shuyin specialized in gic and viral research, she could handle normal fevers and injuries very well. Although the doctors in the virology research Institute were all paranoid, their medical skills were excellent. After so many years of studying, Shuyin had already be a general practitioner.
She guessed that Jing Rui did not like to be touched by others, so she immediately suggested that the male doctor treat his wound.
But Jing Rui did not appreciate it at all. His face was even colder than before.No need, get out!
She actually said he couldnt do it!
His recovery ability wasnt as strong as Jing Zhi s, but it was still impressive.
He had a good face, but he didnt have a good brain!
When Jing Rui spoke with a cold face, he was so intimidating that Shuyin was startled and hurried out.
The Boss was angry. Did I say something wrong?
No matter how Shuyin thought about it, she didnt know what she said wrong. She shook her head and went back to her office to find an ice block to ice her wrist.
Her wrist was already very swollen after such a short time. Jing Rui must have used a lot of strength!
Shuyin was a little scared. She made up her mind to never touch her Boss again.
Shuyin was a little scared of Jing Rui, but Jing Zhi was not. Hey on the bed andined,Brother, you scared away little Shenyu. She forgot to take the thermometer! Ive had it in my mouth for quite a while, its not convenient for me to talk! Hurry up and help me take it out. Lets see what my temperature is now!
Jing Rui stood up and walked to Jing Zhi. He took out the thermometer and said,Thirty-four degrees, thats a little low.
Jing Zhis normal body temperature was thirty-five degrees. Thirty-four degrees meant that the virus in his body had increased, and he was in danger.
Jing Rui threw the thermometer on the table and went back to his seat.
After a while, when youve recovered, Ill do a blood transfusion for you. After that, your body temperature will be close to that of a normal person.
Jing Zhi didnt care much about his body temperature. People had always been worried about his life and death. In the past, whenever his body temperature was too low, the Research Institute would try to raise it. Now, with his brothers care, he didnt have to worry about his body temperature being too low.
Brother, Shenshu is also concerned about your health. You are too fierce to him! He wouldnt be able to find a girlfriend like this! Also, dont you think that the shade of the tree is very beautiful?
Jing Rui was unmoved by Jing Zhis words. He just sat there, as cold as a statue.
Jing Zhi said excitedly,Now I feel that little Shenshu is not only beautiful, but also very good at taking care of people. He also has a good temper! She was much more likable than Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei! I feel like strangling those two to death every time I see them!
Jing Rui still did not say anything. He just listened to Jing Zhis nagging.
Brother, is little Shenshu one of your people?
Jing Rui hesitated for a second and nodded.Yes.
At least for now, they were still his people.
Then you can give her to me too!
This time, Jing Rui refused without hesitation.She can t.
Why cant I?
Jing Zhis eyes widened. He had given his brother everything he wanted, even the moon. Why didnt he give him Shuyin?
Jing Rui did not exin the reason, but repeated,If she can t, you can have the rest.
Jing Zhiughed like an idiot again,haha, I know! Brother, are you also interested in Shuyin? I knew it. Youre usually so good-tempered, so you were so fierce to me just now. It turned out that you did it on purpose!
Jing Rui frowned.Shut up! Stop talking nonsense! He said.
Which part of him was good-tempered?
He was only a little nicer to Jing Zhi.
He wouldnt try to attract Shuyins attention on purpose. Besides, even if he didnt have any love experience, he knew that he shouldnt use violence to attract a girls attention.
Using violence against a girl would probably only make the girl go further and further away, right?
Im not talking nonsense! Brother, you should have said so earlier. If you like a woman, I will definitely not fight with you!
Jing Zhi winked at Jing Rui as he spoke.
Obviously, he thought the opposite of Jing Rui. He thought that using violence to suppress girls would make them fall in love with men faster!
After all, many girls were reserved, and men should take the initiative and be rough!
If he seized the body first, would he still be afraid of not seizing the heart?
Anyway, he only had a good impression of Shuyin. He just felt that she was pretty, very pleasing to the eye, and didnt cause much trouble. It was veryfortable to get along with her. He didnt have any romantic feelings for her.
Jing Rui did not argue with Jing Zhi anymore. It was good that he misunderstood.
Shuyin would always be under his protection. If she didnt like Jing Zhi, he wouldnt force her to be with him.
She was different from Zheng yuluo and the others. She didnt owe Jing Zhi anything.
In order for him to protect Shu Yin, Shu Chengshan even chose tomit suicide without his help.
Jing Rui did not want to break his promise. He would protect Shuyin as long as he was alive.
Unless Shuyin wanted to take revenge.
Then his promise would automatically be invalid.
Jing Rui stayed with Jing Zhi in the hospital for a few hours before he left.
He still needed to show up at the assassin organization.
If they found out that Jing Zhi had been rescued, they would immediately shift their target to this ce.
They had not found out who was behind the explosion yet, and there were still people watching in the dark, so Jing Rui did not dare to be careless.
Jing Ruis return to the killers team did not arouse any suspicion, but it did arouse Zi Shans suspicion.
Everyone gathered together one after another. They were used to fighting on their own, so it was impossible for them to stay together all the time. Therefore, it was normal for them to return sooner orter.
But Zishan never paid attention to those who were worse than her. She only paid attention to Jing Rui, who was better than her.
What was more, she had a feeling that Jing Rui had a special rtionship with the female doctor. She had been paying attention to Jing Ruis movements. Although her men had lost him, it was obvious that Jing Rui was not looking for the target ording to his task. He had gone to do his own thing.
Zi Shans chest was still throbbing in pain. Her gaze was a little cold, but it became bright and beautiful in an instant.
She walked to Jing Rui and said in a clear voice,Ray, the target is not here. Do you have any other clues?

Jing Rui did not see the change in Zi Shans eyes, but he knew that there was no way Zi Shan would not have any enmity with him.
He had just kicked Zishan. Unless Zishans brain was flooded with water, she would not have forgotten so quickly.
Jing Rui did not say anything. He just nced at Zi Shan and followed the others to the next location.
When did he be so close to Zishan?
They were clearly strangers, even enemies!
He wanted to rule the assassin world. Zishan was a powerful rising star in the assassin world, but she had never shown any signs of cooperating with him. In other words, she was on Andrews side.
Zishan was annoyed that Jing Rui had ignored her again.
However, her expression was normal, and there was no anger on her face.
When they arrived at the next location, the group of assassins spread out to carry out a carpet search. During this time, many researchers from the Research Institute were killed.
Jing Rui did not search the ce, for he knew that it would be a waste of time.
He hid in a hidden corner and closed his eyes to rest.
He had not slept for two days and two nights, and he had just escaped from the sea of fire. He was both physically and mentally exhausted.
For the sake of convenience, he was only wearing the uniform of the killer organization.
Although the clothes could keep out the cold, in the deep winter, where a drop of water would turn into ice, a thin piece of clothing was not enough to make people feel warm.
And Jing Rui knew that he had a fever, just as Shuyin had said, and it was getting worse.
There were many burns on his body, and because they were not treated, blood was slowly seeping out, and his injuries were also worsening.
Even though Jing Rui didnt want to admit it, Shuyin was right. His recovery ability was far from Jing Zhi s. Jing Zhi didnt need any treatment, but he did.
He tried his best to ignore the pain in his body and forced himself to sleep.
There were people from the killer organization everywhere, so he was safe.
The cold wind was howling outside. He curled up in the corner and fell asleep.
The reason why he was sleeping sitting instead of lying down was not because the ground was too cold, but because this position was the best for being on guard and dealing with unexpected situations.
He was alone outside with no one to protect him, so he could only be on alert at all times.
Although the environment was much safer now, Jing Rui had already gotten used to this sleeping position.
The sky was slightly bright. Zishan was holding a telescope and saw Jing Rui curled up in sleep from a distance. She was a little surprised.
The lightning she had seen had always been strong, invincible, and without any weaknesses. His entire body exuded an aura that looked down on the world. No one had expected him to have such a fragile side.
Zishan clutched her chest, which was hurting from Jing Ruis kick, and suddenly felt her heart ache.
She put down the telescope and started looking for Jing Zhi.
Jing Rui must have been exhausted to have chosen to rest, otherwise he would have been at the front.
In the past, every time a batch of missions came out, he would always be the first to choose. Moreover, he would definitely choose the most and work very hard.
When the search was over, Zishan did not see Jing Rui. She knew that he was still sleeping there.
The sky was already bright, and it was no longer suitable for killing and looking for people. Moreover, the assassins needed to go back and rest. A few of them exchanged nces and understood what the others meant without even a verbalmunication.
Everyone spread out and found a suitable spot to replenish their ammunition and rest.
Zishan did not leave immediately.
She came to Jing Ruis hiding ce and looked at him in the shadow.Ray, the mission is over for now. You should find a morefortable ce to rest,
Jing Rui suddenly opened his eyes and his whole body tensed up. He rxed when he saw that the sky was bright and Zi Shan was standing a few meters away from him.
He didnt know how long he had been asleep, nor how Zishan had found him, but he knew that his physical condition was a little bad.
Otherwise, he wouldnt have been sleeping so soundly when Zishan was close to him.
The high fever and the burns on his body had caused his reaction speed and vignce to drop.
However, he could feel Zishans kindness. At the very least, she had deliberately stood far away and chosen a very suitable position. She had no intention of harming him.
Jing Rui stood up, nodded at Zishan and walked out.
He returned to the hospital, changed his clothes, took off his mask, and stayed in the ward that his substitute, Liao Wei, had stayed in.
The announcement was that Jing Rui had fallen sick again and was hospitalized.
Jing Zhis ward and Jing Ruis ward were only separated by a wall, but he could not go to the next room to see his brother because of his limited mobility. But he heard from Shuyin that his brother had a high fever and his injuries were getting worse. He was so anxious that he almost fell off the bed!
Shuyin, hows my brother? Was there anyone to take care of him? Did you get an injection? Have you taken your medicine?
Shuyin shook her head.He wont let anyone in. Only the few of us know about his injuries. Everyone else thinks he just caught a cold. Peter just came out from inside and gave the Boss an injection to bring down his fever. However, the injuries on his body have yet to be treated.
In fact, even the fever shots had been forced on him by Peter. Jing Rui had only said that he would be fine after a nights sleep and refused to let anyone touch him.
No way! Jing Zhi panicked. Hurry up and go to the next room and push my brother to my Ward! I want to live with him! No, no, no, no, you can push me to his Ward. You go with me and help him clean up all his wounds!
Shuyin was a little hesitant,this wont do, right? Boss wont allow you to go, and ... He doesnt allow anyone to touch him, so you should find him a male doctor! Peter still has some understanding of burn injuries, so we can let him try.
I dont need Peter, Ill choose you! How can a man like Peter be as careful as a girl like you? what if it hurts my brother! Hes good at scheming, but hes far worse than you when ites to things like surgery!
Jing Zhi killed Peter with a single p!
He chanted in his heart,Peter, Im sorry. Now is a good time for your big brother and the beauty to cultivate their rtionship. I can only belittle you as though youre worthless!
Because it was obvious that the beauty had no feelings for her brother, and her brother was interested in the little beauty!
However, Shuyin still had a lingering fear of what had happenedst night. She had only wanted to touch Jing Ruis forehead to feel his temperature, but her wrist had almost been crushed. If she had to treat all the wounds on his body, she would have been crushed into pieces!
Jing Zhi saw Shuyins hesitation and immediately threatened her.My brother is your Boss, and now that his life is in danger, youre not helping him, are you tired of living? Hurry up and go!

Watch him die and not save him?
This crime was really a bit big!
Shuyin exined helplessly,its not that I dont want to save Boss. Its just that Boss doesnt really like me. You saw it too. My wrist was almost brokenst night.
She rolled up her sleeves and showed Jing Zhi her wrist.
Jing Zhi took a look and saw that Shuyins Jade-like wrist was red and swollen.
Youre too delicate. Its just a little red, its not a big deal! If youre looking for an excuse, you should at least find a decent one. Then, put on an act and lock you up with that old bastard from North!
Jing Zhi was lying through his teeth. He knew that Shuyin wasnt a delicate person, but he was deliberately pestering her. It was more important to bring the beauty to his brother. Scolding her was not a big deal!
My brother is covered in burns. Do you think your injuries can bepared to my brother s? My brothers identity is so sensitive. What if someone else goes and tries to harm him? Without him, do you think you will have a good life? Youll definitely be captured!
Jing Zhis words finally touched Shuyins heart.
Over the years, Jing Rui had given her enough protection so that she did not have to deal with those paranoid people. He had given her enough time and space to learn medicine and study viruses.
Youre right, I should go.
Shuyin smiled gently, then turned around and walked out.
But Jing Zhi was dazzled by Shuyins joke.
He had never seen a girl so beautiful when she smiled. She was like a pure white Orchid that suddenly bloomed, so beautiful that it was natural and pure.
Big brother has good taste!
Shuyin didnt know what Jing Zhi was thinking. She took some gauze, iodophor, ointment, and other medical materials and went to Jing Ruis ward.
Outside the ward, Han Feng and his 10 subordinates were standing guard. This formation was much more powerful than the substitute Liao Wei s. Usually, Liao Wei would only have two or three people following him.
Han Feng knew Shuyin. He was the one who had brought Shuyin and Peter from North America to city A. He was also the one who had sent them back to the Virus Research Institutes temporary base to take care of Jing Zhi.
Han Feng had been ordered by Jing Rui to not let anyone into his Ward. But he hesitated when he saw Shuyin walking over.
He knew that Jing Rui had been seriously injured this time. Although he would be able to recover slowly without any treatment, Han Feng did not want his boss to suffer in this situation.
Shu Yin knew what Han Feng was hesitating about. She said softly,Han Feng, open the door. When the Boss asks, just say that I forced my way in and that it had nothing to do with you.
Han Feng smiled bitterly. If he could not even stop an 18-year-old girl, how could he have been with Jing Rui for so many years? He wasnt made of paper!
He weighed the pros and cons again and again, and still let Shuyin into the ward at the huge risk of being chased away by disobeying orders.
In the ward, Jing Rui was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. He seemed to be asleep.
The winter morning light shone into the room through the clean ss and enveloped Jing Rui, making him feel a little warm.
His face was extremely pale, and his lips were bloodless. It was clear that his condition was indeed a little bad.
Out of habit, Shuyin reached out to touch Jing Ruis forehead to see if his fever had subsided.
When her hand was only a few centimeters away from Jing Ruis forehead, he suddenly opened his eyes and reached out to grab Shuyins wrist.
He held her hand too tightly, and Shuyin couldnt help but let out a hiss. She hurriedly shouted,It hurts!
Jing Ruis guard was lowered when he saw her, but his face was still cold.Who let you in?
Shuyin was in so much pain that tears were welling up in her eyes. She was so angry that she wanted to test if Jing Rui had a fever twice, but she almost lost both her hands! Without her hands, how was she going to live the rest of her life!
She had told him she wouldnte, but Jing Zhi had insisted.
It was too dangerous. She was risking her life to treat Jing Rui!
I wanted toe here. Your injury needs to be treated.
Shuyin tried her best to sound calm, but her tone was a little cold, and it was obvious that she was unhappy.
Jing Rui had a high IQ and EQ, so he could tell that she was unhappy.
He nced at Shuyins wrists and was surprised to see that they were both red and swollen.
In his dictionary, there was no such word as pity for women. The women he met were either his targets or female assassins like Zi Shan. Zi Shan looked like a delicate youngdy, but she was very fierce in fighting. She was kicked by him yesterday, but she was fine.
He had only squeezed Shuyins wrist, and he thought he didnt use much strength at all. How did it be so red and swollen?
Was her skin too delicate? Or was she born with a body that swelled easily?
These thoughts only shed through Jing Ruis mind, and did not leave any traces.
Han Feng! He said coldly.
Your subordinate is here, Han Feng replied and entered.
You cant even stop a woman. From today on, you dont need to stay with me anymore. Go back and practice. When you can stop a woman, you cane back!
Han Fengs face turned pale when he heard the first half of the sentence. When he heard that Jing Rui had asked him toe back, he immediately straightened his back and replied loudly,Yes!
After Han Feng finished speaking, he immediately turned around and left.
Jing Rui and Shuyin were the only ones left in the ward.
Shu Yin didnt want Han Feng to be punished for her, so she kept all her emotions in check and said seriously,It has nothing to do with Han Feng. I was the one who insisted oning in. If you want to punish someone, just punish me. Hes very loyal to you ...
Get out.
Ill take a look at your injuries first. If theres no problem, Ill go out. If you dont like female doctors, Ill get Peter toe in.
Shuyin was not afraid anymore. Jing Rui did not look like he would hit anyone. As long as she did not touch him, she would not be in too much danger. At most, he would speak coldly and look at her with a fierce look.
Shuyin was right. Jing Rui would not do anything to her.
It wasnt that he didnt hit women. He had even rudely kicked Zishan yesterday. He just didnt know how to hit Shuyin.
Even without his promise to Shucheng mountain, he would not hit a female doctor for no reason.
Although he had a cold personality, he was not violent and paranoid.
He didnt allow anyone to treat his wounds, not because he couldnt ept being touched, but because he had been keeping a secret. He had the same virus as Jing Zhi, but with a much lower concentration.
He didnt believe Shuyin.
At the same time, he was also worried that Shuyin would get infected if she came into contact with his blood.

Chapter 961: The big Boss is afraid of this!
Trantor: 549690339
Only a few people close to him knew about his bodys Secret. Even Jing Zhi didnt know. Maybe he had known about it before, but after he lost his memory, he hadpletely forgotten about this small detail.
For so many years, the Virus Research Institute had been working hard on how to make Jing Zhis virus survive in other peoples bodies, but they had never seeded. Thousands of people had died because of this experiment.
He was the only one who had been infected with that powerful virus and survived.
Moreover, his bodys functions had been improved in all aspects!
Jing Rui suspected that the reason why he was able to survive the virus was because he was rted to Jing Zhi by blood.
Their gic simrity was about 25%, which was why his body could withstand the virus erosion andplete a small part of the gic modification.
Shuyin wasnt rted to them by blood, so her body definitely wouldnt be able to withstand the virus.
I dont need anyone here. You can go out and take care of Jing Zhi next door.
Theres nothing wrong with him. The recovery of muscle strength is a slow process. Even if I were to stay by his side, he cant recover immediately. But youre different. Ive already treated your wound, and your fever will go down soon, and youll recover faster.
As Shuyin spoke, she looked at Jing Rui from head to toe and asked,Do you want to take off your shirt or pants first?
Jing Ruis face stiffened. This girl was too unreserved! Was she always like this?
Do you want me to help you, or do you want to take it off yourself? Forget it, youre injured and cant move. Ill help you take it off!
Shuyins anger disappeared when she saw Jing Ruis face turn dark.
So, her Big Boss was afraid of this!
She was going to help him undress, but why did it seem like he was being taken advantage of?
She was a girl, and she was the one who was at a disadvantage in this kind of thing!
Forget it, he was the Boss after all!
She smiled and reached out to unbutton Jing Ruis shirt.
Jing Rui sat up immediately and stopped Shuyins hand. He said with a dark expression,Im not used to other people touching me!
Then who treated you when you were sick and injured in the past? Shu Yin asked curiously.
In the past?
In the past, he would just casually bandage his wound. Most assassins were like this. It was impossible for them to deliberately stay in the hospital for treatment, unless it was a very serious injury.
Seeing that Jing Rui did not say anything, Shuyin knew that he must have bandaged his own wound.
She stopped smiling and looked at Jing Rui with clear eyes.In the past, I could only make do with it because you were outside. Now, you dont need to make do with it.
Yes, I won t, so you can leave!
Jing Ruis attitude was not very good. The veins on his forehead were throbbing because of Shuyin. If it was someone else, he might have kicked that person out!
However, Shuyin didnt have any self-awareness at all and kept on saying,Take off your shirt and lie down. Ill apply the medicine for you. If the burn is more serious, youll have to remove a part of the skin. Im afraid that its not possible to do it here. Youll have to go to a sterile operating room.
Jing Rui was silent for a while before he finally said,I have a virus in my body. Its contagious and could be fatal.
He didnt expect Shuyin to say so calmly,It just so happens that I have a virus in my body too. Its contagious and also fatal.
Jing Rui looked at the girl who was as pretty as a flower in surprise. She looked so calm and did not have any prejudice or resentment against the virus.
In the killer organization, because every killer had been injected with the virus, even though the virus had improved the physical fitness to varying degrees, they were still despised by everyone.
The so-called virus was, of course, poisonous. Most of the viruses injected by the killers could stimte a persons potential for a few years, but after the peak period, their physical fitness would decline sharply. The average age of death was around 50 years old, and very few could live to 60 years old.
The people at the Virus Research Institute were even crazier. They injected more types of viruses into their bodies, and the side effects were even greater.
Didnt Shuyin hate viruses?
In fact, Jing Rui himself hated the virus in his body.
When he was young, he didnt think much of it, but when he grew up, he developed a strong aversion to the virus.
This virus was unique in the world. So many top professionals had studied it for a full seven years, but they had not been able to study it thoroughly. No one could guarantee that there would be no aftereffects.
Shuyin put on her mask and rubber gloves skillfully. She blinked and asked,Do you have any other concerns? If not, Im going to start treating your wound!
She picked up a pair of scissors and cut off one of Jing Ruis sleeves.
Jing Rui was at his wits end. He couldnt hit her, and he couldnt scold her. He couldnt help but feel a headache.
What am I going to wearter if you cut off my sleeves?
Shuyin didnt even raise her head.Ill buy you a new one. But you have to pay for it. I dont have money.
She carefully disinfected, applied medicine and bandaged Jing Ruis arm.
There was arge burn on his arm, and blood was seeping out of the wound. He was wearing ck clothes, so it was impossible to see how badly he was injured.
Shuyin felt sorry for Jing Rui when she saw how badly he was injured.
This was too desperate!
Jing Rui saw Shuyin wiping the blood off his face with a cotton ball and whispered to her,Dont touch My Blood.
Shuyin understood what he meant. She nodded.I know. I treated Jing Zhis wounds before and he didnt die. The virus in your body must have been developed by the Research Institute, so its not as toxic as Jing Zhi s. Dont worry, its easy for me to deal with the virus. I know how to avoid infection, otherwise I wouldnt have been able to live until today.
Her movements were professional and skilled, and her expression was focused and serious. She didnt look like an 18-year-old girl at all, but an old schr who had been studying medicine for many years.
Jing Rui looked at her as she wrapped her arms around him. His eyes fell on her exposed wrists.
Her wrist should have been fair and slender, like all eighteen-year-old girls, beautiful like the best suet Jade.
However, it was now red and swollen. There were even clear fingerprints on her left wrist.
It should be very painful to be swollen to this extent!
Other than the word pain at the beginning, she didnt say another word after that.
Jing Ruis heart skipped a beat and he could not help but look at her.
However, Shuyin was very sensitive to his gaze. She turned to look at him, her eyes curving into crescents.Boss, do I look good?
She thought that Jing Rui would say no.
Unexpectedly, he actually nodded and said,Yes!
Chapter 962
Chapter 962: Too avant-garde style
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin was stunned. After a while, she startedughing.
To be called good-looking by such an outstanding person, her mood instantly soared, and even her wrist didnt hurt.
Jing Rui didnt think much of it. Shuyin was indeed a rare beauty, with her temperament and looks.
She had inherited the best genes from her parents, and Jing Rui could not deny that she was beautiful.
Shuyin hadnt been this happy in a long time. When she was at the Virus Research Institute, she almost never smiled. Ever since she came out, she always felt that life was getting better and better. She was no longer depressed, and she didnt need to be too guarded. Even her personality had be much more cheerful.
With a smile in her eyes, she cut off Jing Ruis other sleeve, carefully sanitized it, applied medicine, and bandaged it.
After both arms were wrapped, Shu Yin went to unbutton Jing Ruis shirt.
Jing Rui wanted to take it off himself, but his arms were wrapped so tightly by Shu Yin that he could not even bend them.
He suddenly felt that he had fallen into Shu Yins trap!
Shuyin couldnt have wrapped his arm like this on purpose, right?
But Shuyins expression was normal, and even her voice was calm and steady. There was nothing unusual about it. Dont move, Ill do it. Your arm has just been wrapped up, and youll bleed easily if you move around, which is not conducive to recovery.
As Shuyin spoke, she undid Jing Ruis clothes one by one, revealing his strong chest.
There were many scars on his body. Although they had faded, one could still see the ferocity he had in the past.
Shuyin had already seen how desperate Jing Rui was, so she was not too shocked by the scars on his body.
She would find it strange if he did not have any scars on his body.
Fortunately, there were not too many injuries on his chest and abdomen this time. They were all small injuries, or else it would definitely leave a scar.
Shuyin used a pair of tweezers to pick up the cotton ball and gently wiped it on Jing Ruis chest where he had a burn.
Jing Rui felt a slight chill in his chest and felt a little ufortable.
He was not used to being in such close contact with others, nor was he used to being taken care of by a woman.
However, although he was not used to it, he did not reject it, nor did he hate it as he had imagined.
Shuyin treated Jing Ruis wound and buttoned it up for him. She said softly,You can wear this first. Ill buy you a new er.
Jing Rui did not refuse and replied with a cold hmm.
The clothes he usually wore were basically distributed by the base, and his daily clothes were randomly picked by him from the mall. However, he didnt like shopping, so it was very worry-free to have someone do this for him.
However, Shuyins next move made Jing Rui worry.
Shuyin was actually holding a pair of scissors and trying to cut his pants!
Shuyin, stop!
Jing Ruis voice was full of anger and his face was dark.
He suspected that he had indulged Shuyin too much, causing her to be insatiable now!
Shu Yin looked at Jing Rui innocently.The surface of your wound is stuck to your pants, so I had to cut your pants open. Otherwise, I wouldnt have been able to apply medicine. Dont worry, Ill buy you a new pair of pantster.
Her expression was innocent, but she wasughing inside!
She had cut off the Bosss sleeves, and now she was going to cut his pants. This was a rare opportunity!
She felt a sense of aplishment when she saw her cold-faced Bosss face turn so dark.
She had been Jing Ruis subordinate for so long and had been ordered around by him. Now, she had finally made aeback!
Jing Rui wanted to stop Shuyin, but it was toote. His pants were cut open by Shuyin with a pair of scissors, revealing his fair legs.
This scene didnt seem right no matter how one looked at it!
Jing Ruis face was as ck as the bottom of a pot.
He was now certain that Shuyin had done it on purpose!
He didnt expect that she, who looked cold and serious in everything she did, was actually full of evil tricks!
Soon, Shuyin finished wrapping Jing Ruis leg.
Jing Ruis entire body was wrapped in gauze, like a mummy.
Now, he couldnt kick Shuyin out even if he wanted to!
Shuyin lowered her head to look at her masterpiece, feeling satisfied.
Boss, rest well. You cant remove the gauze. Ill remove it for you tonight and change the dressing. I promise youll recover in three days!
Jing Rui suppressed his urge to hit her and looked at Shuyin coldly. Shuyin was so scared that she ran away with the medical equipment.
Shuyin left Jing Ruis ward and went to Jing Zhi s.
Jing Zhi had been waiting impatiently. If he hadnt known that his brother was injured and couldnt do any strenuous exercise, he would have suspected that a man and a woman were in the same room together.
Hows my brother?
Hes fine now. The burns have been treated. Its a good thing that his body is in good condition. The wounds are not infected and are even showing signs of healing.
As Shuyin spoke, she suddenly felt that it was indeed a little strange.
Jing Ruis Burns should not have recovered so well.
An ordinary person would definitely have signs of inmmation and suppuration, but he did not have any.
The virus in Boss body seems to be quite unusual. Although its not as good as yours, its still pretty good.
Shuyin didnt doubt that Jing Ruis virus was the same as Jing Zhi s. She was from the Virus Research Institute and had studied the virus for a long time.
Like everyone else, she firmly believed that no one could withstand the overbearing virus.
Jing Zhi was also confused. He could not remember that he had caused Jing Rui to be infected by the virus. After all, he was only a little over one year old at that time. He had lost his memory after that and could not remember much.
He could only remember a certain scene.
He was quite happy to hear from Shuyin that Jing Rui had a powerful virus in his body.
I want to see my brother!
No, you should rest now. Its not suitable for you to go anywhere.
Shuyin rejected him without thinking. Jing Zhi was no different from a paralyzed person now. Where could he go?
But Jing Zhi was good at torturing people. He begged and threatened her, forcing her to push him to the next room in a wheelchair.
Shuyin couldnt change his mind, so she found a wheelchair and pushed him to Jing Ruis room.
Jing Zhi was surprised to see his brother like this, but heughed so hard that he almost fell off his wheelchair.Brother, youve be a mummy? Isnt this style a little too avant-garde?
Jing Ruis face was cold as he looked at Shu Yin, who was pushing the wheelchair. He said,Its quite avant-garde. The designer has his own ideas. Maybe he feels that he has too long of a life.
Um ... Shu Yin said immediately,I still have something to do. You guys can talk!
She ran out of the room, leaving Jing Zhi behind.

Chapter 963: Family love
Trantor: 549690339
Brother, Jing Zhi sighed,you scared the tree away again!
Jing Rui did not care. He looked at Jing Zhis weak body and said,Which part of her is small? Im one year older than you.
Ah? Was little Shenyu already eighteen years old? Thats good. My body is almost fully developed, so I can give birth to your child!
Luckily, Jing Rui had not drunk any water, or he would have sprayed it all over Jing Zhis face!
Go back and rest, dont stay here anymore! He said with a dark face.
Don t, brother, you cant be so disloyal! I forced little Shenyu toe here and apply medicine for you. Without me, would you have enjoyed such a good benefit?
Welfare?
If you think that being a mummy is a benefit, I can let you enjoy it right away!
Jing Ruis expression was calm. He finally understood why Shuyin was so insistent on treating him. He had thought that this girl was just doing her job as a subordinate, but it turned out that she was not. She was forced to do it!
The big Boss suddenly felt a little depressed. How did his subordinates be like this?
Jing Rui looked at Jing Zhi and said,Go back and eat something. Someone else will being here in a while. You cant appear in front of anyone now.
Dont worry, I wont show up now. If theres someone with bad intentions who wants to sell me out, it wont be worth it!
Jing Zhi leaned back in his wheelchair as if he didnt have any bones. He said with a troubled expression,But I cant go back by myself! Whos going to help me when little shanmu isnt here?
Jing Rui called his men in and pushed Jing Zhi back to the ward.
Half an hourter, Shuyin returned.
She walked to Jing Rui with a few clothes in her hands and asked calmly,Boss, I bought you some clothes. Which one are you going to wear?
Jing Rui nced at the clothes and found that they were all of high quality. They were all in ck and gray, simple but not simple, which fit his style very well.
Luckily, she didnt buy him anything gaudy.
His anger from being wrapped like a mummy by Shu Yin finally subsided a little.
Considering Jing Ruis injuries, Shuyin had bought soft and loose clothes. She had thought that Jing Rui would have difficulty putting on clothes because of his injuries, but Jing Rui didnt even need her.You go out, Ill wear it myself.
Jing Rui said as he sat up, picked up a shirt and put it on.
Shuyins eyes widened in surprise.When did you cut off the bandage around your chest?!
She had wrapped Jing Ruis joints with bandages on purpose so that he could not move, let alone hit anyone.
She didnt expect him to solve the problem so quickly after she left!
Seeing Jing Ruis cold expression, Shuyin did not dare to stay any longer. She put down her clothes and left the ward.
Apanying a King was like apanying a Tiger, and the same logic applied to apanying a Boss!
It was already Teno clock in the morning when Jing Rui got changed and had breakfast.
The first to visit him were his parents and sister, whom he had not seen for a long time.
Dad, mom, youre here!
Ruirui!
Shangguan ning had been holding her daughters hand, but when she saw her son, she couldnt care less about her daughter. She went up and hugged her son, tears falling down her face.
She had already heard from Jing Yichen that her son was burnt. She didnt dare to hold Jing Rui too tightly, for fear of hurting him.
Quick, let me see where youre hurt.
As Shangguan ning spoke, she was about to lift up Jing Ruis clothes.
Jing Rui grabbed her hand and said,Im fine, dont worry. I just have a slight fever. Ive already taken an injection to reduce the fever, so Ill be fine tomorrow!
He only mentioned the lightest of the details and did not mention a single word about his injuries.
Jing Xis sharp eyes caught sight of the White gauze wrapped around his sleeve.Brother, did you hurt your arm?
Jing Rui smiled helplessly.Yes, but its just a minor injury. Its not a big deal.
Jing Yichen also spoke up for his son.Its okay. Its just some external wounds. They will be fine after a few days. Otherwise, they wouldnt be staying in the ordinary Ward.
Shangguan ning believed her husbands words the most. She was relieved and stopped checking the wound.
Even if she looked, she would not be able to see anything. Jing Ruis wounds were all wrapped up.
But Jing Rui seemed to be in a good state and did not look particrly in pain.
Seeing her sons face, Shangguan ning finally smiled.My son is still the most handsome!
What she meant was that although the substitute looked very simr to Jing Rui, Jing Rui was still more handsome. After all, he was natural, while the substitute had gone through stic surgery.
She didnt like the feeling of having someone rece her son, so she didnt like the substitute very much. Usually, she would avoid meeting him if possible.
She would not transfer all her love for her son to a substitute.
She was able to tell that he was not Jing Rui the first time she saw the substitute, and she felt awkward every time they met after that.
Although Jing Xi was young, she was smart. When she saw her brother, she also smiled brightly.Mom, you have a handsome son and a beautiful daughter! In the future, my brother and I will be filial to you!
Shangguan ningughed out loud. A daughter was indeed a mothers favorite.
The family of four were talking andughing in the ward. After a while, Jing Yichen took his wife and daughter to Jing Zhis room next door.
This was the first time that Shangguan ning had met Jing Zhi after seven years.
Jing Yichen and Jing Xi had met Jing Zhi before.
Jing Zhi had changed a lot. He still looked the same as when he was a child, but he was a seventeen-year-old boy now. He was tall and handsome, and he still looked like an eye-catching ink painting even in a patients gown.
Both Jing Yiran and Lu had outstanding looks, especially Jing Yiran. He had been so beautiful when he was young that he was the dream man of many women.
Jing Zhi had inherited all the good qualities of the two of them. His eyes were not as sharp as Jing Yiran s.| His eyes were as big as a Barbie doll s, clear and bright. On his face, they made him look even more handsome. He looked more masculine than Jing Yiran, who looked gentler.
Shangguan nings face was filled with both joy and heartache.Ah Chi, youve grown up! I dont even dare to recognize you! I used to y with you when you were young, do you remember?
Of course I remember you, aunt! Jing Zhi grinned.
He really remembered Shangguan ning after he had recovered part of his memory.
In his childhood memories, Shangguan ning had indeed loved him very much.

But Jing Zhi didnt have much of an impression of Shangguan ning.
But he knew Jing Yichen and Jing Xi, and Shangguan ning was the only one who could be with them and visit him.
Jing Zhi smiled brightly and so did Shangguan ning.
In her eyes, Jing Zhi was still the same child from seven years ago.
She touched Jing Zhis forehead gently. Her heart ached for him. He had suffered for the past seven years.
Are you hungry? Is there anything youd like to eat? Your brother is injured, are you injured? Do you feel ufortable anywhere? Did you take your medicine? Why does your face look a little yellow? did you not rest well these days?
Shangguan ning kept talking, treating him like a child who didnt know anything.
Jing Zhi wanted tough, but somehow, he felt warm inside.
When he was in North America, no one cared about him so much. He had always yearned for care and love.
He smiled foolishly and said,first aunt, my injuries have all healed! My face is yellow because I was injected with a potion by a group of lunatics, which caused my muscles to shrink, and I cant move now! But dont worry, Ill be fine in a few days. When Im better, Ill go and kill those people! But ... Even though Ive just finished eating, Im hungry. I want to eat meat!
Shangguan ning had no idea that Jing Zhis muscles were atrophied. She was startled by his words.
But she didnt ask any more questions, in case she made Jing Zhi feel ufortable.
You want to eat meat? This was simple! Ill get someone to send you a steakter!
Jing Yichen smiled slightly,you are still a glutton after so many years. Your dad has been preparing food for you at home since early in the morning. He cooked a lot of dishes and even called me just now to bring you a box of oranges. Ill get someone to send it upter. You can eat as much as you want!
Jing Zhi had lived in A city for a long time, but he hadnt seen his father after the first few days.
Did Jing Yichen mean that his father would being today?
Jing Zhi didnt know how to face Jing Yiran.
He had almost killed his own father back then!
He was really a bastard!
Jing Yichen left with his wife and daughter after a short chat.
He was going to transfer Jing Zhi to another ce. The hospital would expose him too easily, and it wasnt safe for Jing Zhi to stay here. It was possible that many killers woulde here.
As soon as Jing Yichen left, Jing Yiran came to the hospital with many bags of food.
Jing Yiran was a doctor of family MUs Hospital and it was normal for him toe to the hospital. No one would suspect anything.
He asked someone to move the food into his office, and then he personally moved everything into Jing Zhis ward upstairs.
The father and son had not seen each other for many years, so it was inevitable that they were a little distant.
Jing Yiran was better off. He had never forgotten his son and had always been looking forward to his return. But Jing Zhi had lost his memory and his father was not in his mind.
However, he knew that his father had loved him the most when he was young.
The moment he saw Jing Yiran, Jing Zhi was stunned for a while before he called out,dad.
Jing Yiran, on the other hand, was so happy that he burst into tears. He was so excited that he could not even speak properly when he heard his son call him dad again.
Alright, alright, alright, I ... You ... Alright! Come,e,e, Ive brought you a lot of food! I dont know if your taste has changed after so many years, but dad has always made it ording to your previous preferences. If you dont think its good, Ill make it againter!
As he spoke, his voice was choked with sobs.
If your mom knew that youve grown up, she would be very happy! Shes been waiting for you toe home!
A pretty baby face shed across Jing Zhis mind.
Mom?
He had not met his mother yet.
Jing Zhi had already heard from Jing Rui that his mother had returned to the killer organization to protect him. She had been protecting him in secret, except for when she was on a mission, but he had never noticed it.
The father and son went from unfamiliar to familiar, and they soon began to chat.
Jing Zhi had taken after Jing Yirans personality. He was talkative and talkative. He had a good chat with Shangguan ning, his aunt, not to mention his father.
After Jing Ruis parents left with his sister, mu Sen and mu duo came to see him.
Everyone knew about the hospitalization, but Jing Rui did not expect the siblings toe so soon.
He frowned slightly. What had happened when he was not around?
Mu duo entered the ward with an anxious look.Cousin, whats wrong? Why was he hospitalized again? Did his illness act up again? My fathers medical skills are very good, how could he let you fall sick again!
She reached out to hold Jing Ruis arm as she spoke.
Jing Ruis expression was indifferent, but his eyes were sharp as knives as he looked at mu duo.
Mu duo was shocked and quickly retracted her hand.
Jing Ruis eyes were really scary. There was no trace of emotion in her eyes. She didnt have the gentleness that she usually had. Instead, she was as cold as ice!
When did cousin be so fierce!
When she saw him a few days ago, he even hugged her with a smile! Why didnt he let her touch him today!
Cousin today ... Seemed a little different!
Mu duo was not the only one who felt that Jing Rui was different.
Mu Sens feelings were stronger than mu duo S. He studied medicine and was more sensitive to a persons appearance, temperament, and even aura than mu duo.
Although the Jing Rui in front of him looked very simr to the one before, there were still some differences in his appearance. As a doctor, he could tell.
Moreover, the difference in their temperaments and their attitudes towards mu duo was too great!
Jing Rui used to treat mu duo like his own sister and pampered her so much that even he, as his own brother, felt inferior to her.
But today, Jing Rui treated mu duo like a stranger.
The distance between them was hard to describe with words, but it felt real!
Mu Sens cold sweat instantly flowed down!
This man was not Jing Rui!
No, no, no. To be exact, this was another Jing Rui!
He and his sister had met twopletely different people! There were two Jing ruis!
How could this be possible?
It was impossible for family Jing to make a mistake about their own heir.
Jing Yichen couldnt have mistaken his son for someone else.
Her father had just said that Jing Yichen and his family hade to the hospital to see Jing Rui.
But the previous one didnt look fake either. Not only had he taken over the extremely wealthy Jingsheng enterprise, he had also been trained by Jing Yichen.
For the first time, mu Sen felt that his brain was not enough!
He subconsciously pulled his sister to his side and asked,Cousin, a few days ago you said you wanted a few bottles of calming liquid to drink. I made it for you, but I forgot to bring it today. If youre not in a hurry, Ill bring it to you tomorrow.
Chapter 965
Chapter 965: The real and fake cousin (1)
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui immediately understood mu Sens intention.
Naturally, he did not know if the substitute had asked for any calming liquid, but he did not care about it at all. He only looked at mu Sen indifferently and did not say a word.
Although mu Sen and mu duo saw Jing Rui as close rtives who met often, Jing Rui saw them as strangers who had not spoken to each other for seven years. Jing Rui was not used to being so close all of a sudden.
He knew that mu Sen must have noticed the difference between him and the substitute, but Jing Rui did not exin anything. He did not intend to hide it any longer.
He had finally gotten rid of the malignant tumor known as the Virus Research Institute, and he was not far from taking control of the huge killer organization.
In the future, he would no longer need a substitute.
Jing Rui did not speak and the atmosphere in the ward became awkward. Mu Sen and mu duo were intimidated by his strong aura and did not dare to speak again.
After a long time, they heard Jing Rui say in a cold voice,Get out.
To the siblings, this kind of indifference was somewhat familiar!
This tone was very simr to Jing Yichen s.
It wasnt an act of indifference, but a true personality.
Mu duos mind had been nk since she came in today. She did not even react for a moment when Jing Rui shouted for her to leave.
She couldnt understand how her cousin had changed so much!
She had never offended her cousin!
Mu Sen, however, seemed to be relieved of a burden. He pulled mu duo and immediately left the ward.
Brother, why do I feel that cousin is so strange today? hes so strange!
After leaving the ward, mu duo seemed to havee back to life and finally dared to speak.
She stomped her feet in anger when she realized that Jing Rui was looking down on her.
His eyes are too scary! I wanted to hug his arm and act coquettishly like before, but after he nced at me, I felt goosebumps all over my body and didnt dare to get close to him!
As mu duo spoke, she shivered.
She didnt believe that looks could kill people in the past, but now she finally believed it!
Mu Sen sighed softly and patted his sisters back. He coaxed her,It should be fine as long as you dont get so close to cousin in the future. He didnt like to be touched by others in the past, have you forgotten? Im not specifically targeting you.
Mu duo was unconvinced,the past is the past, and the present is the present! Hes very good to me now. Not only was he willing to let me touch him, but he also yed with me and gave me a lot of good things. You didnt even want to buy me the limited edition diamond watch that I liked. Later on, he didnt even frown and gave it to me!
Mu Sen couldnt help but have a headache. His sister had been pampered by her family since she was young and had been spoiled.
The watch she was talking about cost more than seven million Yuan. He was still in school, and he only came to help asionally in the hospital. He had no source of ie at all. Where would he find seven million Yuan to buy a watch for his sister?
Even her parents would not agree to buy such an expensive watch for a youngdy, let alone him.
But after mu duo cried and begged for it, Jing Rui bought it for her.
Before that, Jing Rui had also given mu duo a Maserati sports car that was worth more than five million Yuan.
Who couldpare to such a generous gift?
Mu duo had almost abandoned him and treated Jing Rui as her own brother! She would do whatever Jing Rui asked her to do.
At first, mu Sen thought that his sister was too willful and spoiled by Jing Rui, but today, he was sensitive enough to notice that something was wrong.
There were two Jing ruis, but he did not know which one was the real one.
Forget about the cold man who refused to let her sister touch him, since her sister did not suffer any losses. But what if the Jing Rui who was getting closer to her was a fake?
Not only had his sister hugged the man from before, but she had also kissed him on the face!
She was a little carefree and didnt feel that she was being too intimate with her cousin. He had reminded her twice, but both times, mu duo had quarreled with him and ignored him for many days. After that, she didnt dare to mention it again. After all, he was her cousin. It was no big deal for her sister to kiss him.
Mu Sens heart was heavy. If there were two Jing ruis, then family Jing might be hiding a big secret.
He had to ask his father if he knew about this.
Mu Sen sent his sister home and went directly to the directors office where his father was.
After mu Sen exined his guess to Mu Qing, he was also shocked.
He had met Jing Rui many times and had helped him with his recovery, but he had not had much contact with him. He had not even seen Jing Yichen, let alone Jing Rui. Jing Rui was in good health and had only been in the hospital three times so far.
The first time was when he was infected with a virus when he was young and had to be hospitalized. The second time was when he was feeling unwell and came to the hospital to recuperate. Thest time was this time.
When Jing Rui was admitted to the hospital, Jing Yichen didnt ask him to see Jing Rui at all. He told him that he was fine and that he was admitted for other reasons.
Mu Qing didnt ask further since Jing Yichen didnt tell him the reason. It was not the doctors from his hospital who had treated Jing Rui, but two foreign doctors who had been rmended by Jing Yichen not long ago.
ording to Jing Yichen, these two were Jing Ruis friends.
Therefore, even if Mu Qing wanted to help, he couldn t.
But Mu Qing was much calmer than his son and trusted Jing Yichen more. A man like Jing Yichen would definitely know who his own son was.
If there were two Jing ruis, he must have arranged it on purpose.
As for mu duo ...
Mu Qing sighed in his heart. His daughter was the little princess of the family and had been spoiled. It was time for her to suffer. They couldnt protect her forever. She would get married sooner orter.
Two dayster, mu duo was shocked by her fathers words.
Duoduo, daddy wants to send you to a military school to study for two years and train. What do you think?
Not much!
Mu duo immediately refused!
Military schools were not ces for humans to stay in!
Zheng Yuwei had only been in the military school for a year, but she had be a strong woman. She was no longer as gentle and lovely as before. Even her skin had be a lot darker, and there were many calluses on her delicate hands.
Furthermore, the military school forbade them from growing long hair, dyeing their nails, putting on makeup, and sleeping in. They had to train hard every day!
She didnt want to suffer that!
Mu duo turned around and walked away. She said angrily,Hmph, Im not going to some lousy military school. Im going to find my cousin! All of you are not good to me, only cousin is good to me, he will listen to me no matter what I do!
Chapter 966
Chapter 966: The real and fake cousin (2)
Trantor: 549690339
Mu Qing didnt manage to stop her, and her daughter disappeared in her sports car.
He was so angry that he was even more determined to send his daughter to a military school.
He didnt want his daughter to suffer in the past, but Zheng Yuwei was one year younger than mu duo and she had been sent to the military school by Zheng Jing for training. She had changed a lot after she came home this year.
Zheng Yuwei was also pampered since she was young. Like mu duo, she was a flower that was raised in a greenhouse. But now, she was like a sword that had been unsheathed, showing off her sharp edge. There was no longer a trace of her pampering.
It was true that girls should be raised well, but they could not be raised too much.
Mu duo didnt know that her father had already made up his mind to send her away. She drove her car onto the streets in a Huff. However, her driving skills were not good to begin with, and she was in a very bad mood. In a short while, she got into trouble and ran over someone elses car!
Her brand new Maserati was not only smeared with paint, but also had arge dent.
Fortunately, her car had good protection, otherwise she would have been injured.
However, the other party was not as lucky as mu duo. His car was just an ordinary Japanese, and the frame was almost broken by mu duo!
Although mu duo was extremely angry and her heart ached so much for the car that it was about to bleed, she also knew that she had made a mistake and quickly got out of the car to apologize.
Sir, Im sorry, Im sorry. I didnt do it on purpose! I identally bumped into you just now. Are you hurt? Should I send you to the hospital first? Ill pay for the cars repair and medical expenses!
Although mu duo was a little spoiled and willful, she wouldnt mess around when it came to right and wrong.
It was one thing to throw a tantrum at home, but she could still maintain the most basic etiquette with others.
However, the other party was not afraid of making a big deal out of it. Seeing that she was a little girl who was less than 20 years old, drove such a good car, and seemed to be easy to talk to, he wanted to extort a sum of money from her.
How can you drive like that?! The middle-aged man cursed. Dont you have eyes! Look at this, look at this state my car is in after you hit it! I just bought this new car! Aiyo, it hurts so much, my head is about to split open! I cant control my hands and feet now. Its over, its over, Im going to be paralyzed for the rest of my life! You brat, you have to take full responsibility!
This stance was no different from those scamming scammers in the news!
Mu duos grades were average, but she wasnt stupid. How could she not know what the other party was up to?
Since she was born, she had basically been able to do whatever she wanted in A city. How dare she ckmail her? Simply tired of living!
She had apologized, but the other party had actually taken advantage of her! How could she endure it!
She didnt even address him as Sir anymore and directly scolded,F * ck, you B * stard, Im trying to talk to you nicely, but youre not willing to do so. Youre forcing me to reveal my true nature. Do you believe Ill stab you to death?
Mu duo acted like a female hooligan and rudely kicked down the car door that was already on the verge of copse. She then grabbed the middle-aged mans hair and pulled him out!
She had originally wanted to take full responsibility andpensate him with money.
However, how could she stand being bullied like this? now, she wasnt even willing to pay for it and even wanted to beat the other party up!
Hes really shameless. He shouted so loudly, and its obvious that hes angry. He doesnt look like hes injured! Didnt you want to be paralyzed? Ill fulfill your wish!
The middle-aged man had never expected that such a delicate-looking youngdy would actually be so fierce!
He directly pulled his hair!
He was suddenly dragged out of the car. Before he could react, he was kicked twice by mu duo.
This time, it really hurt!
However, men were naturally stronger than women. After the initial panic, the middle-aged mans fierce aura immediately came out and he kicked mu duo to the ground.
Mu duo cried out in pain and fell a few meters away, almost breaking her breath!
When the middle-aged man wanted to kick him again, he was stopped by two fierce-looking Men in ck. Then, he was hit on the back of his head and an intense pain spread from his brain to his whole body.
He closed his eyes and passed out.
Mu duo, who was lying on the ground in so much pain that she didnt dare to move, raised her head and saw the tall man standing in front of her. She suddenly burst into tears.Cousin! That bastard hit me! Quickly help me kill him!
Mu duo was 19 years old this year. This was the first time she had been beaten up so far.
Ever since she was young, none of her parents or elders could bear toy a finger on her!
She was actually beaten up today. She felt so wronged!
Fortunately, her cousin had appeared in time. Otherwise, she would have been beaten to death today!
Mu duo looked at her cousin, who was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, bend down and carry her horizontally. He did not mind the dirt on her body at all. She could not help but cry even harder.Wuwu ... Cousin, youre the best! Youre always able to appear in front of me in time to save me!
After the two of them got into the car, mu duo leaned into her cousins arms before she reacted.Cousin, youre discharged? You didnt let me touch you when I visited you at the hospital two days ago. Why are you willing to hug me today?
Liao Weis entire body froze!
The hand that he had ced behind mu duos back clenched tightly!
As expected!
Jing Rui was back again, and this time he did not want to hide his identity at all!
Liao Wei was so angry that he almost crushed his teeth!
He had been forbidden to go out, and Jing Rui had to enjoy the wealth of family Jing. How could that be?
Liao Wei was almost going crazy with jealousy!
It wasnt easy for him to get everything, so how could he hand it over so easily!
He wished he could change his blood with Jing Rui so that he could make Jing Rui his substitute!
Mu duo had already noticed that he was slightly different from Jing Rui. She must not let mu duo see the real Jing Rui again!
Liao Wei squeezed out a faint smile and coaxed,I was reprimanded by my father that day and did something wrong, so I was in a bad mood. I didnt mean to give you the cold shoulder. I wont do it again, youre always my most beloved sister!
Mu duo touched her aching ribs and was a little happy.Really? Do I still have to be in front of Xixi?
By right, the person her cousin loved the most should be his biological sister, Jing Xi. However, mu duo felt that her cousins rtionship with Jing Xi was very ordinary. The two of them were not very close. Instead, she and her cousin were more like biological siblings!
When Liao Wei heard mu duo mention Jing Xi, a malicious look shed across his eyes.
That little girl was not easy to fool!
She was more scheming than the neen-year-old mu duo! She really didnt know how a person like Shangguan ning could have raised such a smart daughter.
Xixis still young, Liao Wei said.Shes different from you. I always feel like were closer than close friends.
Just a few words and mu duo was so touched that her eyes turned red!
She originally felt that todays cousin was very different from the cousin she saw two days ago, but now she had long forgotten that little doubt!
Chapter 967
Chapter 967: Leaving
Trantor: 549690339
In the hospital, Jing Rui had already received the news that Liao Wei had escaped.
His expression was frighteningly cold, and Shu Yin, who was removing the bandages to check on his injuries, was frightened.
He didnt know who had provoked this King of Hell, he was really too blind! She had to be so careful!
Unfortunately, Peter had followed Jing Zhi to a hotel, leaving her all alone in the hospital. She couldnt run away even if she wanted to.
Jing Rui had a good recovery ability. With the help of medicine, his wounds had mostly recovered in a few days. His newly grown skin was pink and tender like that of a newborn baby. There were almost no scars on the burnt area. His recovery ability made women jealous.
A trace of doubt shed across Shuyins heart. What kind of virus was inside Jing Rui?
A normal persons recovery ability would definitely not reach this level, unless they had the help of a virus.
However, Shuyin knew almost all the viruses in the Virus Research Institute like the back of her hand. As far as she knew, there was no virus in the Research Institute that could achieve such an effect.
However, she did not ask anything.
This kind of matter was a persons greatest privacy, a major privacy that involved his life.
If it was someone else, Shuyin might have used her professional knowledge to solve this puzzle. But this was Jing Rui, and she would not do that.
Although she did not seem to be close to Jing Rui, she admired him more and more.
Shuyin didnt have any thoughts of resisting such a man who was admired by others.
Jing Rui didnt know what Shuyin was thinking. He looked at Shuyins almost perfect side profile and suddenly said,Shuyin, do you have anywhere you want to go?
The topic was strange and even a little abrupt, which did not match Jing Ruis cold personality. He would not care about where she was going for no reason.
Shuyin had never been one to overthink things.
Jing Rui must have meant something by asking this question, and he did not want to take her out to y.
She didnt dare to answer easily, so she asked cautiously,Boss, are you talking about going on a trip?
No, Jing Rui replied calmly.
Shu Yin was slightly taken aback. What did this mean?
Was Jing Rui going to send her away?
Was she not doing well enough? Why did he send her away?
Shuyin couldnt hold back the bitterness in her heart. She was an orphan who had entered the Research Institute when she was young and had tasted the cold and harsh world. After escaping from the Research Institute, she had be very happy because she thought that she had friends.
It turned out that she still did not have one.
She was still all alone.
After a long period of training, Shuyin had strong willpower and forbearance that no one else had. In just a few seconds, she forced the tears back into her eyes.
She didnt want to and couldnt show her weak side in front of others.
She told herself that she was only cooperating with Jing Rui, Jing Zhi, and Peter, and that they were not friends.
Shuyin stood up straight and faced Jing Rui. She suppressed all her emotions and said in a calm voice,I like to do scientific research, about gic inheritance and viruses. There are several top universities in the United States in this area, and I want to study there.
Shuyin had hidden her emotions so well that Jing Rui did not notice anything strange about her, but he was impressed by her intelligence.
He only revealed a hint of meaning in his words, and she understood it.
It was easier to talk to smart people.
Okay, Ill contact a few universities and send you there.
No need, Ill go by myself. Shuyin rejected her tly.You dont owe me anything, and I dont owe you anything. From today onwards, our cooperation ends. Ill leave tomorrow.
Shuyins voice was calm and she spoke as usual, but Jing Rui could tell that she was angry.
However, she suppressed all her anger, sadness, and sadness at the bottom of her heart, unwilling to show it in front of him.
Her beautiful and delicate face revealed a faint sense of alienation, and she no longer had the rxed smile from before.
Jing Rui suddenly felt that he had done something wrong.
If theres nothing else, Ill be going out. If youre leaving tomorrow, Ill need to book a ne ticket now.
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked out.
Wait! Jing Rui grabbed her wrist.
Is there anything else? Shuyin broke free from his grasp.
You want to stay here?
No, I don t. To me, its the same everywhere.
Just yesterday, she had naively thought that things were different. She had thought that at least she would not be abandoned after all the things she had done for Jing Rui.
It didnt matter. It wasnt like she had been abandoned once or twice.
She should be used to it, shouldnt she?
Even her parents didnt want her anymore, so it was even more impossible for others to protect her for the rest of her life.
She had a strong and Brave Heart. She was only 18 years old. The road in the past was so bumpy, but she had walked it. She could walk the road in the future alone!
Shuyin left the hospital and went to the small apartment that Jing Rui had found for her.
When she returned to the apartment, she suddenly realized that she had unknowingly started to rely on that powerful man.
She was used to his orders, his arrangements, and his protection.
Otherwise, she wouldnt be living in the apartment he had arranged for her.
Shuyinughed at herself. Luckily, she was never greedy. Luckily, she was independent enough. Otherwise, she would probably be crying her eyes out right now.
Sheposed herself and started to book ne tickets online.
There were many flights to United States, and Shuyin picked the earliest one, which was the 5 p.m. Flight this afternoon.
She didnt have many things, and she hadnt learned the skill of shopping yet. Most of the clothes she was wearing were simple styles that she had bought online.
She had thought that she would be staying here for a long time and wanted to go to the mall to slowly pick out clothes, shoes, and socks, but now it seemed that she could not go.
Shuyin took a shower, changed her clothes, and dried her hair. Then, she left the apartment with her suitcase and went to the airport.
She was a straightforward person. Since she wanted to leave, she should leave earlier. She did not allow herself to have any nostalgia for this ce.
So when Jing Rui found out that Shuyin had left, he was surprised.
Did Shuyin think that he was chasing her away?
However, he didnt mean that. He just didnt want to restrict her. He wanted her to go out and live the life she wanted.
Now, she wanted to further her studies in University. She thought that she would have a good life in the future.
However, just in case, he arranged for ten people to protect Shuyin day and night.
He had thought that Shuyin would go to a more stable and small city, but he didnt expect her to still choose North America.
North America was the most dangerous ce for her.
Chapter 968
Chapter 968: Chapter 968-shifting the disaster to the East
Trantor: 549690339
As for Shuyin, Jing Rui had arranged for her to be protected, so he did not pay much attention to her.
He still had many important things to do.
For example, getting rid of his substitute.
Most of the Jing familys power and manpower did not know that Liao Wei was just a substitute. Therefore, no matter what requests he had, they would satisfy him with respect and without any suspicion.
That was why Liao Wei was able to escape from the tight control. Many of the people who controlled him were his subordinates and treated him as their master.
Of course, this was also because Jing Yichen and Jing Rui did not pay enough attention to this substitute. They did not take Liao Wei seriously. He was a puppet supported by them, and without family Jing, he was just an empty shell.
Jing Rui had not paid much attention to Liao Wei and mu duo before, but now he found out that Liao Wei had pampered mu duo to the heavens in his name, and the two of them were closer than real siblings.
Mu duo loved to pester Liao Wei now, and Liao Wei seemed to be very patient in coaxing her.
Jing Rui did not have time to care about what a little girl was thinking. He did not even care about Shuyin, who had been providing him with information and taking care of Jing Zhi for two years, let alone his cousins, who had not contacted him for seven years.
In the middle of the night, he appeared directly in front of Liao Wei and mu duo. He said to mu duo with a cold expression,The helicopter is waiting for you outside. From tomorrow onwards, you will officially enter the military school. If you dont pass the test, you are not allowed to return to A city for the rest of your life!
Liao Weis expression was extremely ugly, and mu duos expression was not any better!
Why did the person who had sneaked into the vi just now have the exact same face as her cousin?
And he even used such a tone to talk to her as if he was her cousin!
Mu duo subconsciously hugged Liao Wei, who was beside her. Her most powerful cousin was right beside her, so she felt especially confident.
Therefore, mu duo raised her chin and said in a disdainful and arrogant tone,Who are you? You have the same face as my cousin and you want to y dumb? Do you think I wont go back to A city just because you dont want me to? Who Do You Think You Are!
When she saw Jing Rui today, she immediately realized that the person she saw in the hospital two days ago was not her cousin, but this man in front of her!
The person in front of him was even more indifferent and cold, without any human feelings at all! He didnt dote on her and didnt even let her touch him!
Her cousin was the best. He didnt have any problems and wouldnt speak to her so strictly!
Cousin, Yingluo! Mu duo hugged Liao Weis arm and dragged out her long voice as she swayed coyly.This person is impersonating you, quickly show him your power! Let him know that you cant be imitated by just anyone! This person doesnt look like a good person!
Jing Rui was furious after being scolded by mu duo.
If mu duo had not been rted to him by blood, he would not have cared about her whether she was alive or dead.
However, his aunt only had one daughter. Although he did not have any sibling rtionship with mu duo, he could not let her fall into Liao Weis hands and be defiled.
Of course, if he was angry, she would be in trouble! When he brought her out of this ce, there would be plenty of suffering for her in the future!
Mu duo was very confident, but Liao Wei was so guilty that he was breaking out in cold sweat!
Every time he saw Jing Rui, he felt an inexplicable fear.
However, the opportunity in front of him was fleeting. He had to grab hold of it tightly. Today, he had deliberately kept mu duo by his side. Wasnt it so that he could use her?
Liao Wei hugged mu duo and backed away with all his might. He shouted at his subordinates,Protect me and Duoduo. Kill this liar!
Jing Rui hade here alone, while Liao Wei had many bodyguards with him. There was a serious imbnce in the number of people between the two sides.
The bodyguards were also stunned when they saw Jing Rui. They could not tell which one was the real Jing Rui.
However, they all knew mu duo. Mu duo couldnt possibly have mistaken her own cousin, right?
They all thought that the person who was hugging mu duo was Jing Rui. After all, they had been following Liao Wei and protecting him. They had never doubted his identity.
Jing Rui stood there quietly and nced at the bodyguards around him. No one dared to look at him.
He watched as Liao Wei brought mu duo away quickly under the protection of the bodyguards, but he did not chase after them. He only said to the crowd coldly,Everyone here today is fired! Youre not allowed to enter A city again!
The bodyguards who had wanted to shoot Jing Rui hesitated.
Because Jing Rui looked more like the heir of family Jing, both in appearance and temperament.
Under the gaze of hundreds of bodyguards, Jing Rui left with steady steps, and no one stopped him.
Of course, even if these people tried to stop him, they could not stop Jing Rui.
Soon, the news that there were two heirs of family Jing spread like wildfire in A city, and it was hard to tell the truth from the false.
It was also said that the Jing family had found the missing child seven years ago, and it was Jing Rui who had brought Jing Zhi back.
So, the killers started to look for Jing Rui like crazy.
Jing Rui put on a mask and changed his clothes. Together with the other killers, he went on a mission to find Jing Rui.
Jing Rui could have saved mu duo that day, but mu duos unprincipled scolding made Jing Ruis desire to save her diminish.
Liao Wei would definitely not dare to touch mu duo for a while, so he would let mu duo suffer for two more days.
He had used Liao Wei to sessfully divert the attention of the killer organization. In this way, he could protect Jing Zhi until he took control of the entire killer organization.
On one hand, he was searching for Liao Wei with the assassins day and night, while on the other hand, he secretly asked his men to help Liao Wei avoid their search. Every time, he managed to avoid them by a hairs breadth.
After a few times, Liao Wei was the first to break down!
He had mu duo with him and was injured. He was being chased like a stray dog and had to hide here and there. Now, he could no longer return to the Jing family to seek protection. Not only that, but the Jing family had also sent people to kill him!
Very quickly, he realized that mu duo was simply a burden!
She was extremely delicate and always got into trouble. Liao Wei did not hesitate for long. When he ran away again, he directly abandoned mu duo and led his men to escape to North America with the help of the benefactor.
Mu duo had been living in purgatory for the past few days!
He just dodged and hid every day!
It had been five days since shest took a bath or had a full meal. Her body was losing weight at a visible rate.
It was only when she found out that she had been abandoned by her cousin in an unknown small mountain vige that she finally lost all hope!
In her impression, her cousin was omnipotent. How could he be in such a sorry state?
The cousin who loved her the most had abandoned her!
She felt as if her entire world had copsed!

Mu duo wasnt sent home. She was sent directly to United Kingdom by a helicopter. She went to the same military school as Zheng Yuwei and began her difficult military school life.
Liao Wei, on the other hand, went to North America.
The organization was in turmoil. Only two killers were left in A city to continue looking for Jing Zhi, while the rest retreated to North America to catch Jing Rui.
Jing Rui was one of the killers who had withdrawn. He and Zishan had all returned to the base.
It was almost the new year in A city, and the atmosphere was lively and full of New Years vor.
Jing Zhis body hadpletely recovered, but he only realized after he recovered that his brother and Shuyin had already left A city.
He was extremely vexed. He had wanted to have a good chat with his brother!
He had heard nothing about the real Jing Rui and hated the substitute. He only had one brother and the substitute was nothing! How dare he try to take over family Jings property!
Bah! His surname was Jing and he had never had such thoughts, yet someone with the surname Liao dared to think about it! That fellow must not fall into his hands. If he did, he would definitely make him regret being born!
The first thing Jing Zhi did after he recovered was to take revenge on Zheng yuluo.
He was so angry with Zheng yuluo that he put her in the ranks of the madmen at the Virus Research Institute and thought that she was an aplice!
The night was as dark as ink, and a ghostly ck figure silentlynded in front of the bed.
On the light pink bed, there was a young girl sleeping soundly.
The girls ck hair was scattered on the pillow. Her side profile was perfect, and one of her exposed ears was exquisite and cute. Arge area of snow-white skin was exposed under her corbones, making peoples imagination run wild.
She was curled up in the quilt with her brows slightly furrowed, as if she was not sleeping well.
Under the thin nket was an exquisite and well-proportioned young girls figure.
Jing Zhis eyes shed with a strange light. She was really a stunner!
Even though he had stayed in the West for so many years, he was not interested in Western women. He had always liked Eastern women, especially ... Young girls who had a ssical temperament.
Such a young girl could easily provoke his nerves and make him lose his mind.
Jing Zhi was suddenly excited. A strong desire to destroy rose in his heart.
So what if shes a beauty!
He had caused him to fall into the hands of those lunatics twice! This time, if it wasnt for his brothers timely appearance, he would definitely have lost his life!
He had promised Jing Xi that he would not kill Zheng yuluo, but that did not mean that he would not punish her! He could be spared from death, but he couldnt escape punishment!
He pulled Zheng yuluo up from the bed without any pity and carried her on his shoulder.
Zheng yuluo suddenly woke up, and then she felt the world spinning. When she came back to her senses, she found herself being carried on the shoulder of a tall man!
She couldnt help but scream in fear.
Jing Zhi immediately put her down. He wrapped his left hand around her waist and covered her mouth with his right hand. He shouted fiercely,Shut up! Dont scream, or Ill kill you!
When Zheng yuluo heard the extremely familiar voice, she looked up and saw the handsome and unique face. She was surprised and shocked!
She had never expected that it would be Jing Zhi.
Are you sure this isnt a dream?
For so many years, she had dreamed that Jing Zhi hade to her and asked her to pay with her life.
Because she had hurt Jing Zhi again recently, he had these dreams more frequently. And every time in the dream, his face was so clear.
A drop of cold tear fell from her face and onto the back of Jing Zhis hand.
Was she crying?
Jing Zhi had seen womens tears more than once. He had seen many crying women, but he had never seen anyone as beautiful as Zheng yuluo when she cried.
The young girl in his arms was trying her best to remain calm, but her eyes were filled with disbelief. Her body was also trembling slightly, either from fear or from sobbing.
Outside the room, there was the sound of hurried footsteps, and then a slightly hoarse girl asked anxiously,Sister, whats wrong?
Zheng yuluo was afraid that her sister would break in, so she immediately pried Jing Zhis hand away and replied through the door,Im fine ... I just had a nightmare! Go back to sleep and dont worry about me!
Zheng yuluo often had nightmares, which were bing more and more frequent recently. It was not the first time she had screamed in fear like today.
Zheng Yuwei was relieved and thought for a while, but she still didnt enter her sisters room.
Her sister was suffering from a heart disease. She had tried her best to persuade her, but it had no effect.
Her vacation would be over in a few days, and she had to return to the military school to study, but she was really worried about her sister.
Zheng Yuwei sighed and walked back to her room in distress.
The sound of the footsteps gradually faded away, and the dark night slowly quieted down. It was so quiet that the entire room could clearly hear the breathing of the two of them.
Jing Zhi was both surprised and confused. Why did Zheng yuluo hide it? Why did she help him?
Could there be another conspiracy?
He was really a little scared!
Women today definitely couldnt be underestimated. Each one was more scheming than the other, very powerful!
Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, was trembling slightly. She tried her best to tell herself not to be afraid, but when she thought of what Jing Zhi had done to her, how merciless he had been when he had killed her, and how he had humiliated herst time, all the fear in her heart was reflected in her body.
She wanted to say something, but when she faced Jing Zhi again, she couldnt utter a single word.
She wanted to apologize, but at the same time, she felt that an Im sorry was useless!
Jing Zhi didnt say anything either. He was on guard against Zheng yuluo in his heart. He listened carefully to the movements outside, and his eyes were fixed on Zheng yuluo, for fear that she would y tricks again.
After waiting for a full five minutes, there was nothing unusual outside, so Jing Zhi focused all his attention on Zheng yuluo.
His hand started from Zheng yuluos hair, touching down inch by inch, her corbones, back, chest, lower abdomen, ***, until it reached Zheng yuluos most private lower body.
Zheng yuluo was ashamed and indignant!
Jing Zhi had touched every part of her body within a minute.
She wanted to stop him, but she was no match for Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi, what are you doing?!
Isnt touching you clear enough? Arent you a natural stunner to please men?
Jing Zhis tone was frivolous, and even his smile was full of evil.
Zheng yuluos face turned red from his words, and she felt wronged and humiliated!
She was not that kind of woman!
How did he be such a person?! He was bloodthirsty and indulged in women!
However, when she mustered up the courage to raise her head and refute Jing Zhi, she found that his dark eyes were cold and emotionless.| Desire!

Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo was so embarrassed that she finally realized that Jing Zhi had touched her body very quickly. He didnt deliberately stop at any part of her body, nor did he massage her like he did thest time they met.
She suddenly realized that Jing Zhi was afraid that she might have hidden something on her.
However, such a body search was too embarrassing!
Zheng yuluo bit her lip and said in a low voice,Let go of me. I have nothing on me. I ... I wont harm you.
Jing Zhis big hand was on Zheng yuluos naked back, and he started to stroke her back and forth.
The two of them were very close to each other. His actions looked gentle and affectionate. If one didnt know, they would definitely think that the two of them were a deeply in love newly-wedded couple.
However, his voice was so cold, and the words he said were also cold and cruel.
You wont harm me? Zheng yuluo, do you think Im an idiot? You dont have to pretend to be innocent anymore, it only makes me feel disgusted! Ive lost so much blood in the hands of those lunatics. Today, its my turn to bleed you!
Zheng yuluo was so frightened by him that she shivered!
She felt that Jing Zhi would really do something like this. To him, killing people was as easy as drinking water. What was blood?
However, even though she was scared to death, she did not beg for mercy.
She had decided a long time ago that Jing Zhi could punish her in any way he wanted, as long as he was happy. Even if she had to die, she would not hesitate!
She had been looking forward to finding Jing Zhi every day, to his safe return.
Now that she saw that he was fine and had escaped from the hands of the bad guys again, she could die without regrets!
She gently closed her eyes, and tears fell unconsciously.
Come, she said softly,you can bleed however much you want!
Jing Zhi was confused when he saw Zheng yuluo close her eyes and let herself be ughtered.
When did she be so obedient?
In his impression, Zheng yuluo had always been a proud peacock! She was the kind of scheming woman who could easily trigger a World War!
Was his memory wrong?
Or had she changed over the years?
Jing Zhi felt that his brain wasnt working well enough.
He had always felt that he wasnt smart enough. Compared to his brother, he was far inferior.
Although he and his brother were Rui and Zhi respectively, he felt that his brother had taken up both the words! His brain was filled with mush!
He was so stupid and had lost his memory. He always felt a little scared when he met someone like Zheng yuluo. He wondered if it was a residual effect from his childhood.
He wasnt good at using his brain, but he was good at using force!
Physical strength could make up for mental strength to arge extent. As long as his fists were good, it was more than enough to deal with a weak woman!
Jing Zhi picked up Zheng yuluo and jumped out of her window.
Zheng yuluo was scared out of her wits!
They were on the third floor!
The vis floors were quite high, and it was more than ten meters to jump down from her room! If he fell straight down, his head would break!
Wouldnt such a death be too tragic?
Didnt we agree to let out blood?
Zheng yuluo couldnt care about anything else. She hugged Jing Zhis neck tightly, as if this would make her die less painfully.
She fell to the ground with Jing Zhi, her eyes closed.
However, the pain that he had imagined did note.
Zheng yuluo opened her eyes and found that they hadnded smoothly!
How could this be possible?
Spiderman?
Zheng yuluos strong fear disappeared, and she turned to look at Jing Zhi in shock.Youre Superman?!
Jing Zhi sneered at her,idiot! As expected, those who are beautiful are all brainless!
Zheng yuluo realized that she had said the wrong thing after being scolded by him.
Only children would believe in superhumans Ultraman. She was already seventeen years old, but she still said such words, which made her seem a little childish.
However, when Jing Zhi was not around, Zheng yuluo spent most of her free time watching cartoons.
She couldnt get into other TV series at all. She liked the simplicity of cartoons. She liked the feeling of people protecting mankind and world peace.
Jing Zhi could onlye back when the world was peaceful and the rtionships between people became simple.
However, she couldnt be med for calling Jing Zhi Superman. No normal human being could jump down from the third floor without getting hurt, not to mention that he was carrying a person in his arms.
She remembered that Jing Zhi had been different from ordinary people in all aspects when he was a child. She had even given him the nickname monster and tried to get other children to iste him because of his difference, thinking that it was inauspicious to get close to him and that he would die.
Now that she thought about it, she couldnt have been so bad when she was a child. Jing Zhi was so pitiful back then.
No one yed with him. The only one who was willing to be close to him was his brother, Jing Rui. But Jing Rui had always been cold and did not go to school, so he was not Jing Zhis ymate.
Not only did Jing Zhi hate her, but even Zheng yuluo hated her back then!
Zheng yuluo hugged Jing Zhi tightly. She was only wearing a thin nightgown. In the middle of the night, when water turned into ice, Jing Zhi carried her and ran quickly, but she forgot about the cold and her fear.
She didnt know how she could atone for what she had done to Jing Zhi. She didnt know how she could make up for the pain she had caused him when he was young.
She wanted to be nice to Jing Zhi, but she knew that he didnt need her kindness and wouldnt appreciate it.
Zheng yuluo felt terrible in her heart, and her tears flowed out again.
Cold tears rolled down Jing Zhis neck. He was a little annoyed. Why did this woman only know how to cry?
Wasnt he very capable in the past? It had always been her who bullied others to tears, and there had never been anyone who bullied her to tears!
Jing Zhi pped Zheng yuluos round butt and said angrily,Dont cry!
Zheng yuluo was embarrassed and in pain after being hit on the butt. As expected, she did not dare to cry anymore.
He was still as fierce as he was when he was young!
In the past, he used to love scolding her and quarreling with her. When they quarreled too much, he would hit her too. The whole group of them were no match for him.
Zheng yuluo turned her head slightly and stole a nce at Jing Zhis side profile.
His face was handsome, and the outline of his side profile was perfect. He had a kind of determination that ordinary people didnt have, and a hint of fierceness.
He had be more handsome, more mature, and more ruthless.
Zheng yuluo was still afraid of him. Seeing that he had been carrying her and running quickly, she asked him,Where are you taking me? If its very far, you should have driven.
Her heart ached for him for carrying her for such a long distance, but Jing Zhi didnt appreciate it at all. He said coldly,Shut up! Youll know when we get there!

Trantor: 549690339
Of course, Jing Zhi didnt want to walk far with Zheng yuluo in his arms. He was just used to this kind of rapid running.
When he was in North America, he would be on the road all day for every mission. Most of the time, he couldnt drive to hide his identity. Moreover, if the car was installed with a tracker or a bomb, it would be a dead end.
He wanted Zheng yuluo to walk on her own, but she was too slow and wasted too much time!
Jing Zhi flew to the hotel with Zheng yuluo and carried her into the hotel elevator with disheveled clothes.
The hotel staff had seen all kinds of people before and were used to it. Besides, they all knew that Jing Zhi was a big customer with a powerful background and no one dared to offend him.
After entering the hotel room, Jing Zhi threw Zheng yuluo onto the bed. He didnt care that she was shivering from the cold or that she was panicking. He asked condescendingly,Tell me, are you in cahoots with that bunch of lunatics?
Zheng yuluos head was spinning at this moment. Previously, she had been brought into the most famous five-star hotel in A city with such a background. She had lost all her face!
Luckily, she was smart enough to bury her face in Jing Zhis chest so that no one could see her face. Otherwise, she would never be able to show her face again.
What crazy? she asked, confused.
Jing Zhi was furious when he saw that she didnt know anything.
He pinched Zheng yuluos chin hard and said coldly,Still pretending? If you and those people didnt set a trap for me, how could I have fallen for it? How could I have fallen into their hands and suffered again?
Zheng yuluo finally realized what Jing Zhi was asking about.
No, no, no, youve misunderstood! She quickly denied. I dont want to harm you! I dont know those people at all, and I dont know anything about their plot. That day, one of them passed me a note saying that youve returned to A city and even gave me a few addresses, I ...
As she spoke, her expression dimmed and her voice became low. Her tone was filled with self-me. Ive been looking for you for years. When I heard that youve returned, I subconsciously wanted to look for you. I didnt expect to fall into someones trap and cause you trouble again ...
Jing Zhi didnt dare to believe Zheng yuluo. Who knew if she was telling the truth or lying?
How could there be such a coincidence?
He had a stomach full of anger. A few days ago, when he was lying in bed and lost the ability to take care of himself, the thing he wanted to do the most was to catch Zheng yuluo and beat her up so badly that she could not get out of bed. It would be best if she was half-dead and did not dare to go against him again.
However, looking at Zheng yuluo now, he could not give her a good beating.
He could kill Zheng yuluo with one shot, but he was not that twisted and perverted to beat up a weak girl in such a way.
Jing Zhis eyes were red with anger. He couldnt fight or kill.
He really wanted to strangle Zheng yuluo to death. This way, he would have his revenge and never have to see this vicious woman again! Otherwise, if she could sell him off once or twice, she could sell him off three or four times. It would be a disaster to keep him.
Zheng yuluo was curled up on the big bed. She couldnt help but feel a little scared when she saw that Jing Zhi was on the verge of exploding in anger.
She was so anxious that tears kept falling from her eyes. She apologized to Jing Zhi in a panic.I was wrongst time. When they passed me the note, I did suspect that someone had ulterior motives, but I wanted to find you so badly. I just wanted to know how you were doing and where youve been all these years. I knew it was a trap, but I still fell in. Im sorry ...
Zheng yuluo had been hoping that she would be lucky. She thought that the chance of finding Jing Zhi was less than one in ten thousand. Even if someone wanted to set her up, she would ept it.
She didnt expect that the person they were after wasnt her, but Jing Zhi.
She had no value.
Zheng yuluo recalled what had happened a few days ago and immediately said,Oh, the one who took you awayst time was the same one who took you away 7 years ago!
Jing Zhi was even angrier when she mentioned what had happened seven years ago.
Although he did not know the details, Jing Rui had told him everything.
Jing Zhi couldnt understand how a young girl could be so vicious.
He even drugged him, knocked him out, tied him up, and gave him to the human traffickers!
Back then, Zheng yuluo definitely did not know that person. Now that she remembered that person, why did she send him to him?
Jing Zhi couldnt control his anger any longer and exploded.Zheng yuluo, do you still have any humanity? Do you have a blood feud with me? You want me to die so badly!
I didn t! Ive been looking for you!
Zheng yuluo knew she was wrong in the past, so she tried her best to make up for it. She didnt want Jing Zhi to misunderstand that she still wanted to deal with him.
Jing Zhi was so angry that he didnt listen to her. He took off his coat and pressed Zheng yuluo under him like a fierce tiger.
He pulled off Zheng yuluos pajamas, revealing her beautiful and slightly young body.
Zheng yuluo had been sleeping in her own home. She was only wearing her underwear and pajamas, not her bra. Now, her pajamas had been torn off.
The lights in the room lit up the whole room as if it was daytime. Zheng yuluo felt that she waspletely exposed to Jing Zhis eyes.
Ah! She screamed and subconsciously crossed her arms in front of her chest to protect herself.
But Jing Zhi tore off the only underwear she had left.
Zheng yuluos face turned pale as she lost her upper and lower defense.
Her entire body was trembling in despair!
Jing Zhis body was very hot because he had just exercised, but Zheng yuluos body was cold because she had been out for too long, the same temperature as the snow outside!
One was hot and the other was cold. It was so exciting that the two of them trembled slightly at the same time.
The change happened so quickly that Zheng yuluo was almost scared silly! She had never thought that Jing Zhi would try to rape her.
She was ready to sacrifice everything for Jing Zhi, but that didnt include her own body.
She could give her life to him, but that didnt mean she could ept being forced!
Zheng yuluo struggled under Jing Zhi and cried hoarsely,Jing Zhi, let me go! Youre crazy!
Chapter 972
Chapter 972: Revenge after seven years (2)
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi roared with a cold face. He thought he had gone crazy.
He was not interested in women. To him, women were like clothes, dispensable.
After being an assassin for so long, his self-control was first-ss. Usually, when women tried to seduce him, he was always able to hold back. He had always been putting on an act and would not fall for it.
This was the first time he had ever raped a woman!
No, to be precise, it was his first time doing a woman.
In the past, in order to obtain the most urate and scientific research data, the Virus Research Institute absolutely forbade him from having sex with women. They even injected him with drugs regrly, so that he couldnt get hard even if he wanted to touch women.
That was why Jing Zhi had never been interested in women. Even if he did, he could control himself.
But today, he didnt know if it was because he was young and full of vigor, or because it had affected his sex before.| The Drug of Desire hadpletely lost its effect. When he saw Zheng yuluos body, his lower body reacted very quickly!
This was the first time he was so eager to possess a woman!
The more Zheng yuluo struggled, the more their bodies rubbed against each other. Jing Zhi had never known that physical contact could make people sink so deeply.
Jing Zhi had never had a woman before, but he knew everything he needed to know.
He was not willing to control himself and follow his desires.
She was still too young. She was not even seventeen years old yet and was still developing.
Zheng yuluo cried out in pain.
It was too painful!
Jing Zhi bit Zheng yuluos fair chest and said ruthlessly,Fine, I hate you, Im a bastard! Im not just a bastard, Im also a homicidal maniac! For a woman like you, we should rape her before killing her!
Jing Zhiy on Zheng yuluos body, panting heavily. He stopped moving.
Zheng yuluo thought it was over and she didnt have to suffer anymore. She didnt expect Jing Zhi to start again after a while.
She was extremelycking in sexual knowledge and had no idea what was going on. She had thought that one time would be enough!
But Jing Zhi didnt think so. His first time had onlysted a few minutes, which was a serious blow to his self-esteem. He didnt believe that he could only hold on for such a short time!
Zheng yuluo was in so much pain that she cried. She knew that this kind of thing would hurt, but she didnt expect it to be so painful!
Jing Zhi was crazy! She hated him to death!
She wanted to kick him off her body, but her legs were pinned down by Jing Zhi and she couldnt move at all.
Seeing Jing Zhis shoulder so close to her, she bit him without hesitation.
However, Jing Zhis reaction was ten times faster than hers. He grabbed her chin before she could kiss him.
He sneered evilly.Zheng yuluo, youd better behave yourself. Serve me well tonight. If you make mefortable, Ill let you Live! Biting me means youre looking for death!
Jing Zhi wasnt afraid of pain. Zheng yuluos bite would only be treated as a mosquito bite.
However, he could not let Zheng yuluo really go up.
His blood contained the most deadly virus!
With Zheng yuluos current hatred for him, she would definitely bite him until he bled. Swallowing his blood was no different from eating arsenic.
Zheng yuluo knew to be on guard against Jing Zhi when she was young. She thought he was a monster and would die if she got close to him.
But she had been looking for Jing Zhi for so many years that she had forgotten the taboo of her childhood. She didnt know what would happen if she bit Jing Zhis shoulder.
She was so angry that her face turned white because she couldnt bite Jing Zhi now.
You bit me, so Im going to bite you! Ill bite you to death!
Zheng yuluos almond-shaped eyes were wide open, and she looked as if she wanted to bite Jing Zhi to death.
Jing Zhi sneered. As expected, Zheng yuluo was still as fierce as before! He had been acting like a littlemb just now, but it was all a lie!
He hated that he almost fell into her trap again!
She cried and begged Jing Zhi.Please kill me. I did something wrong. Please kill me! Dont torture me like this anymore, just let me die!
Jing Zhi turned a deaf ear to her and tortured her more and more. Zheng yuluo was in so much pain that she couldnt even say aplete sentence.
The second time, Jing Zhi was able to hold on much longer.
After he was released, hey on Zheng yuluos naked body and panted.
Zheng yuluo waspletely wrapped in his masculine breath. Jing Zhis breath was beside her ear, making her body tremble uncontrobly.
Zheng yuluo soon realized what was wrong with her. She was shocked and pushed Jing Zhi away with all her strength.
Jing Zhi was a little tired after releasing it twice, and he was pushed off the bed by Zheng yuluo without any warning.
Fortunately, the floor was covered with a thick carpet, so it didnt hurt to fall.
But this was a huge challenge to Jing Zhis bottom line. He quickly got up and dragged Zheng yuluo off the bed.
Zheng yuluo fell on the carpet, but before she could get up, Jing Zhi pressed her down again.
There was another pain in his lower body!
Zheng yuluo was about to go crazy. Why was there another one?
Get lost! Jing Zhi, get lost! Youre making me hate you!
Her voice was originally a little delicate, and now that she spoke with a sobbing tone, it actually seemed a little charming.
He seemed to ... Like her tender voice, because it was the best aphrodisiac!
Struggling and shouting didnt work at all. Instead, it made Jing Zhi stronger and stronger. Zheng yuluo was pressed under him weakly. She didnt dare to scold him anymore, but just sobbed.

Chapter 973: The prey escapes
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo were so close to each other, and their lower bodies were even more intimate. Jing Zhi felt Zheng yuluos reaction at the first moment.
Her face was no longer pale, but had a faint blush on it. She was gentle and charming, very different from her usual quiet and cold appearance!
Of course, Jing Zhi knew that it was Zheng yuluos first time, not only because of the red color that symbolized a Virgin.
She didnt have any ****, and neither did he.
However, in this aspect, men were naturally able to learn it without a teacher. Moreover, although he had never put it into practice, he had a lot of theoretical experience.
The two of themy on the carpet, entangled tirelessly. Zheng yuluo had lost all her strength to resist. She leaned softly against Jing Zhis strong chest, her eyes closed, her eyshes trembling.
Just now, she had experienced the first time in her life that she had fallen.
Even if she had no experience, even if shecked sexual knowledge, she still knew what had happened to her just now.
She was extremely embarrassed and looked down on herself in her heart!
How could she ... Feelfortable?
She had been forced by Jing Zhi, that bastard. How could he make her forget who she was?
Zheng yuluo hated herself to death, and she hated the culprit Jing Zhi even more!
However, she was too tired and fell asleep in a daze.
The next day, when Zheng yuluo woke up, it was still dark outside. The sky was hazy, and the sun had not risen.
She was awoken by the pain.
When she opened her eyes and saw the unfamiliar room, Zheng yuluos muddled brain suddenly remembered what had happenedst night.
The body under the nket waspletely naked!
Her entire body was in pain, especially her lower body. It was so painful that she wanted to cry!
She felt as if her bones were falling apart, and it was difficult for her to even get out of bed!
Zheng yuluo turned her head slightly and saw the culprit lying beside her, sleeping soundly.
She endured the difort and soreness in her body, gently lifted the nket, and got out of bed lightly.
She turned around to look at Jing Zhi. Seeing that he wasnt awake, she suppressed her anger and embarrassment.| She crossed her arms and quickly ran out of the bedroom and into the bathroom.
Jing Zhi opened his eyes and stared at the seductive woman.| He only closed his eyes again when his back view disappeared.
Zheng yuluo entered the bathroom and washed herself up and down. She cried as she washed herself. In the end, she squatted in the corner and cried to death.
She hated Jing Zhi for ruining her innocence, and hated herself even more for not rejecting his touch and touch.
He had treated her so violently, but she did not hate him!
She was hopeless, how could she be so spineless!
How could he repay the debt he owed him like this!
Zheng yuluo was crying in the bathroom. She thought that no one would hear her because of the sound of water.
But Jing Zhi wasnt just anyone. His hearing had slowly recovered after he took out the chip from behind his ear. Now, he could even hear the sounds on the street if he wanted to, let alone the sounds in the bathroom.
Hey on the bed and listened to Zheng yuluos crying. For some reason, he felt a little sad.
He had used such a brutal method to take away the most precious thing from a girl. He thought that he would be happy if he made Zheng yuluo suffer, but he did not!
Zheng yuluo was in pain, but he was not happy.
He secretly warned himself that Zheng yuluo was not a good person. He should not pity her at all! I cant be soft-hearted!
Zheng yuluo cried in the bathroom for a while. She didnt want to waste any more time in case Jing Zhi bullied her again. She wiped herself dry hastily, wrapped herself in arge towel, and walked out of the bathroom.
Jing Zhi had torn her clothes apartst night, including her underwear.
Even if her clothes were still intact, Zheng yuluo couldnt run out in only her pajamas on such a cold day. She would freeze to death before she could even reach home!
She sneaked into the room with a towel wrapped around her. She nced at Jing Zhi and saw that he was still sound asleep. She picked up the coat Jing Zhi had thrown on the floor the night before, put it on, and ran away.
It was not until she ran out of the luxurious Presidential Suite, ran into the elevator, and ran to the hotel lobby that Jing Zhi did not chase after her. Zheng yuluos beating heart slowly calmed down.
Jing Zhis coat was a long ck woolen coat, hand-sewn with pure cashmere. It was very good at keeping warm. Zheng yuluo was wrapped in arge bath towel inside and wearing the woolen coat outside, so she didnt freeze to death.
However, although the coat was long enough to cover her calves, she was not wearing shoes. She stepped on the cold ground barefooted, and the chill spread from her feet to her whole body.
The hotel lobbys waiter saw Zheng yuluo walking barefoot in the winter and couldnt help but stop her. He asked kindly,Miss, do you need a pair of disposable slippers?
Zheng yuluo was scared out of her wits when she was suddenly stopped. She thought that this person was arranged by Jing Zhi to stop her from leaving the hotel. She didnt expect that he was concerned about her!
However, she was like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow. She was cold and afraid, and her body was in great pain. She waved her hands in a panic and fled!
After leaving the hotel, she anxiously hailed a taxi. When she got in the car and saw the driver start to dial the meter, she then remembered that she did not bring any money!
Jing Zhi stood in front of therge floor-to-ceiling window of the suite, wearing a bathrobe. He squinted as he watched the petite figure hide in the taxi in a panic with his coat on.
Run?
City A is only so big, lets see where you can run to!
None of his prey had been able to escape!
It was already very kind of him to not knock Zheng yuluo out, tie her up, and send her to the human traffickers!
When Zheng Yuwei woke up in the morning, she was still thinking about her sisters nightmarest night. She put on some clothes and ran to Zheng yuluos room. When she saw that there was no one in the room, she immediately had a bad feeling in her heart.
If his sister went out normally, why would she not bring her phone, shoes, or coat?
Perhaps, her sisters screamst night wasnt because of a nightmare?
Zheng Yuwei was filled with regret and self-me!
Why didnt she go in to see her sisterst night?
She pinched her cheek so hard that her face turned red.
She consoled herself to stay calm. Maybe her sister had something urgent to attend to and had gone out. She would definitely be fine!
Zheng Yuwei wanted to go out and look for her sister, but she didnt know where to go. She was anxious, but she didnt dare to tell her parents. She only wore a down jacket and looked around at the door.
She didnt have to wait long before a taxi appeared in the morning mist and stopped in front of her.

Chapter 974: Youre taking your sisters ce?
Trantor: 549690339
When Zheng yuluo got out of the taxi, Zheng Yuwei waspletely stunned!
The sister was barefooted, her hair was messy and dripping with water, and she was wearing a mens wool coat!
Sister! You are ...
Wei Wei, dont ask anything. Pay for my ride first.
Zheng yuluos voice was unspeakably hoarse when she opened her mouth. It was no longer as tender and pleasant as it used to be.
Zheng Yuwei was waiting for her sister at the door early in the morning and did not bring any money with her. She quickly said to the driver,Master, please wait a moment. Ill go home to get the money immediately!
As she spoke, she hugged Zheng yuluos arm and pulled her into the house.
Zheng yuluo went back to her room and snuggled herself in the quilt. There was a heater at home, and it was as warm as spring, which finally made her feel better.
Zheng Yuwei paid the fare as fast as she could, and then rushed to Zheng yuluos room.
Sister, what happened? Did you note backst night? Why ... Are you dressed like this? Who bullied you? You tell me, Ill help you vent your anger!
Zheng yuluo had been so shocked that she hadnt recovered from the shock yet. She couldnt believe that Jing Zhi would rape her.
She wouldnt have felt as bad as she was now even if Jing Zhi had killed her.
She wrapped herself tightly in the nket, for fear that her sister would see the marks on her body. She was even more afraid that her sister would go to Jing Zhi for revenge. What if she was also ...
That would be the end of it!
She didnt want her sister to get hurt.
She should bear all the mistakes of the past alone. Her sister was Living a Good Life now, so she should be happy.
Zheng yuluos mind went nk, but she still pretended to be calm and said softly,Im fine, Wei Wei. Go back to your room and let me rest for a while.
Zheng Yuwei didnt understand anything and refused to leave.No, sister, I want to stay with you! From tonight onwards, Ill sleep with you! No matter what happened, you should have told me! Sister, were twins and were the best friends. You cant keep everything to yourself. You have to tell me! Its better for two people to think of a way together than for you to hold on alone!
No, Im fine. Im just a little tired and want to sleep. Youre overthinking it, Weiwei.
Zheng yuluo did not intend to tell anyone about what happenedst night, not even her twin sister.
Seeing that her sister was not willing to say anything, Zheng Yuwei knew that what had happened must be more serious than she had imagined. Otherwise, with her sisters character, she would definitely tell her so that she would not worry.
Dont tell mom and dad that I wasnt at homest night. I dont want them to worry. I wont be eating breakfast in a while. Dont wake me up, I want to sleep a little longer.
Okay, I wont tell mom and dad, but you have to tell me what happened!
Zheng yuluo did not speak again. She closed her eyes, turned around, and began to sleep with her back facing Zheng Yuwei.
After a while, Zheng Yuwei sighed softly,Sister, its Jing Zhi, right? she asked.
Jing Zhi was the only one who could make her sister like this.
When Zheng yuluo heard this name, her body stiffened slightly, her eyshes trembled, and even her face turned pale in an instant.
However, she did not dare to open her eyes to look at her sisters face. She could only pretend to be asleep.
Zheng Yuwei was good at reading peoples expressions. When she saw her sisters reaction, she knew that she had guessed correctly.
Sister, youre too silly. You cant me yourself for the rest of your life just because of one mistake. You cant live for Him your whole life! You should live for yourself!
In other matters, Zheng Yuwei couldfort her sister. Her sister was a person who could listen to other peoples opinions. In fact, she was very easy topromise, which had been the case since she was young.
The only exception was Jing Zhi.
As long as Jing Zhi was involved in anything, her sister would side with him without any principles.
Zheng Yuwei also felt very guilty towards Jing Zhi, but she was more selfish and cared more about herself. She wouldnt be in so much pain just because she had hurt Jing Zhi.
But his sister didnt care about him at all.
Zheng Yuwei didnt know what had happenedst night, but she knew that no matter what happened, her sister wouldnt me Jing Zhi.
Her sister was wearing a mans jacket, and she guessed that it was Jing Zhi s. She had some guesses about what had happened, but she didnt think it was possible.
If something had really happened between Jing Zhi and her sister, she wouldnt have been so calm.
Zheng Yuwei didnt dare to ask anymore. She was afraid that the more she asked, the more pain her sister would feel. She stood up and quietly left the room.
When Zheng yuluo heard that her sister had left, she finally couldnt help but cry.
She didnt dare to take off her clothes just now in order not to expose herself.
She was still wearing Jing Zhis coat.
His clothes had a faint sweet scent unique to him. Last night, when she was under him, she had been wrapped in this scent.
However, even though the taste was sweet, the heart was extremely bitter. No girl would like the violence and humiliation fromst night.
If it wasnt for the fact that Zheng yuluo felt so sorry for Jing Zhi and felt that Jing Zhi was unforgiving in torturing her, she wouldnt even have the courage to live.
As she cried, she did not know when she fell asleep.
She slept until the evening.
She was woken up by hunger.
She was still in pain all over her body, including her waist and legs. The part that had been vited the most by Jing Zhi was in so much pain that she couldnt even walk.
Fortunately, Zheng Yuwei was extremely concerned about her sister and had brought all the food and drinks to her room. Zheng yuluo did not have to go downstairs, so she ate a simple meal in the room and was forced to drink a ss of milk by Zheng Yuwei.
Seeing that her sister was not like a sister, but like an elder sister, taking care of her meticulously, Zheng yuluo finally felt warm in her heart.
She gave her sister a faint smile.Wei Wei, Im fine. Dont let your thoughts run wild and stop frowning. Otherwise, youll look like an old woman.
Her sister was still in the mood to joke around. It seemed that things were not as bad as she had thought.
The huge stone in Zheng Yuweis heart was finally lifted.
The two sisters talked for a while, and when night fell, they each fell asleep in their own rooms.
In the dead of the night, the faint moonlight shone through the window and into the room, making the exquisite figure on the bed clearly visible.
Jing Zhi stood in front of the bed silently. He pulled the nket off the girl and was about to pick her up when he suddenly stopped.
He stood up straight again and smiled coldly, revealing his white teeth.Zheng Yuwei, did youe to your sisters room to sleep with me on her behalf?!
Chapter 975
Chapter 975: The devil Jing Zhi
Trantor: 549690339
The shock in Zheng Yuweis heart could not be described with words!
Jing Zhi wasnt human! He was a devil!
How could he know that she wasnt his sister!
And how did he know that she wasnt asleep at all!
She and her sisters appearance, temperament, and figure were almost exactly the same. If the two of them walked out together in broad daylight, no one would be able to tell who was who!
How did he distinguish it!
In order to confuse Jing Zhi, she had even made a wig that looked exactly like her sisters long hair.
The pajamas she was wearing were also her sister s!
Zheng Yuweiy stiffly on the bed and didnt move.
She had been taught in the military school that she had to be able to keep her cool most of the time. The enemy was probably testing her on purpose, and if she couldnt hold it in first, she would be the one who lost.
But Jing Zhi seemed to be able to read minds as well. He sneered.Alright, stop pretending. The things you teach in the military school can fool an idiot like you, but a genius like me, youd better get out obediently and get your sister back! Otherwise, I dont mind taking you in as well!
The disguise spell had failed! Psychological tactics were also ineffective!
Zheng Yuweis heart turned cold.
How could they fight this war! In just one minute, she, the top student of the military school, had lostpletely!
She knew very well that she was not on the same level as Jing Zhi. The two of them were separated by the distance of the Himyas!
Zheng Yuwei didnt dare to pretend anymore. She already knew that Jing Zhi wasnt just making a wild guess. He really could tell them apart.
She opened her eyes and got up slowly. She looked at Jing Zhi coldly and said in a low voice,Youre Jing Zhi?
Under the moonlight, her face was exactly the same as Zheng yuluo s, but the aura was very different from Zheng yuluo s. She was more heroic and fierce, while Zheng yuluo was gentle from the inside out.
Jing Zhi vaguely remembered that the two sisters used to have the same temperament and personality. How could they have changed so much after seven years?
Who is Jing Zhi? Jing Zhi asked coldly. I dont know him! Are you referring to the child that the two of you sent to the madman? Hes already dead!
Zheng Yuwei was speechless and didnt know what to say.
She had just wanted to confirm Jing Zhis identity. After all, he had changed a lot after so many years. They were in a dark environment, so she couldnt be sure if the person who had just arrived was the Jing Zhi who had hurt her sister.
However, she was certain now.
Zheng Yuwei lifted her head and looked at Jing Zhis tall figure. She said in a low voice,I ... I apologize for what we did when we were young. We were wrong that time and caused you to go missing for so many years. Its only right for you to be angry, but please dont hurt my sister. Shes been looking for you all these years, and shes also living a very hard life! No matter what you want, I can give it to you, no matter how much it costs!
So youre saying that youve made up your mind to sleep with your sister? Very good, having a pair of twin sisters to sleep with him should be quite happy! Ive never enjoyed the service of twins before. I hope you have better skills and dont be like your sister, only knowing how to scream!
Zheng Yuweis anger was ignited when she heard what Jing Zhi said.
She was different from her sister in that she had a much more fiery temper and was not one to be taken advantage of. She jumped up from the bed when she heard Jing Zhis words. Youre shameless, Jing! What kind of hero are you to bully two weak girls? what did you do to my sister?
Nothing much. I just turned her from a young girl to a woman and then taught her a lesson in bed. If youre envious, Ill teach you a lesson tonight!
Jing Zhi said nonchntly. He pointed at the ck coat on the chair and said,Look, your sister was so excitedst night that she tore her own clothes. Thats why she came back wearing my clothes.
Zheng Yuwei was fuming with anger! She didnt believe that her sister would tear off her clothes. Jing Zhi must have done it!
His sister had actually been forced by this demon!
To think that her sister could still be so calm when she came back. She even joked with her andforted her!
Her pure and innocent sister had suffered the greatest pain and humiliation in her lifest night, but she couldnt do anything to help!
Zheng Yuwei jumped off the bed barefooted and raised her hand to p Jing Zhis face.
She wanted to beat this bastard to death!
However, Jing Zhi reacted much faster than Zheng Yuwei. He grabbed Zheng Yuweis fair wrist and pulled hard.
The room was silent. Suddenly, there was a crack sound. Zheng Yuweis arm was dislocated by Jing Zhi.
Then, Jing Zhi threw Zheng Yuwei on the floor and sneered at her,You want to hit me? Maybe in the next life!
Zheng Yuwei almost screamed out in pain when her arm was dislocated!
However, her military school life had made her very resilient and able to endure pain.
She was afraid of waking up her sister next door and her parents on the second floor, so she held back and didnt make a sound.
She was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat, and her back was instantly drenched in sweat!
She had thought that she couldpete with Jing Zhi after studying and training hard in the military school, but now she realized that she was just throwing an egg at a rock!
She bit her lip hard, unwilling to let herself make any sound of pain.
She endured the pain and reached out with her other hand, groping around as she reattached her arm! Fortunately, she had learned this before. Otherwise, she would have died from the pain tonight!
The pain in his joints was still there, but it was already within an eptable range.
Zheng Yuwei got up from the ground and looked at Jing Zhi, who looked like the god of death, in fear. She couldnt hide her anger and said,How can you me us for what happened back then? Even without my sister, you would still be taken away by those people, but it would only be a few dayster! At that time, my sister and I were so young, and you bullied us every day. Thats why we resorted to unscrupulous means! Thew has already stated that children under the age of fourteen can be exempted from criminal responsibility even if they kill someone!
Jing Zhi walked to Zheng Yuwei slowly and forced her to back off step by step. He didnt stand still until Zheng Yuwei was at the foot of the wall and pressed her body against the wall. He said coldly, Thats why you two are still alive! Otherwise, do you think your head can still stay on your neck?
As he spoke, his fingers gently slid across Zheng Yuweis neck as if he was flirting with her, in an ambiguous position.
But Zheng Yuwei didnt feel anything at all. Being touched by Jing Zhi and half-held in his arms, she only felt fear!
Chapter 976
Chapter 976: Chapter 976-a special love
Trantor: 549690339
His fingers were as cold as snow, not like human hands at all!
How could a humans hand not have any warmth?
Zheng Yuwei thought to herself in horror, was her sister threatened by Jing Zhi in the same way? Had she been touched by his cold hands?
Even she was scared to the point of going crazy. How on earth did her sister endure it!
Zheng Yuweis body was shaking unconsciously, but Jing Zhi chuckled in her ear.
Hisughter was as cold as his hands! Moreover, it was inexplicably cold and shrill, as if it came from hell and wanted her to suffer the most painful punishment!
Whats wrong, Zheng Yuwei? are you afraid? It seems that your sister is more courageous!
Jing Zhis fingers were still moving around Zheng Yuweis neck, as if he was going to crush her carotid artery at any moment!
You and your sister have sent Jing Zhi to a good ce! There was no sunlight there for years, and he could only lie in bed day after day, being stripped naked and studied in reverse! His blood was very strange, so people kept drawing it. When he was about to die from the drawing, they gave him some medicine and let him rest for a few days. When he was well, they would continue drawing blood!
Zheng Yuwei was shocked and stared at Jing Zhi in disbelief. He ... Was being used as a test subject? Jing Zhi was only ten years old when his blood was drawn out.
Hes very afraid, afraid to see those doctors, afraid that someone wille and draw his blood. However, one day, he was not afraid anymore. They had injected him with a drug that could erase all his memories! After half a year, he willpletely forget who he is!
Jing Zhi pinched Zheng Yuweis chin coldly.Tell me, isnt this kind of life a torture for every extra day? He was sent to hell by you in advance, and from then on, he became a cold-blooded killer in the dark! Zheng Yuwei, dont you deserve to die?
Im sorry ... Its all my fault!Zheng Yuwei muttered bitterly.
No! Wei Wei, this isnt your fault!
A voice that was very simr to Zheng Yuweis suddenly sounded. Zheng yuluo, with long silk-like hair, barged in from the door.
She ran to Jing Zhis side, looked up, and said firmly,Its not Wei Weis fault. She listened to me the most when she was young. I was the one who came up with all the ideas to plot against you. I was also the one who made the decision to give you to that person!
Zheng Yuwei was shocked and said anxiously,Sister, dont talk nonsense! Thats not your fault alone!
Why is my sister here?
She had clearly given her sister some sleeping pills, and then carried her to her room while she was asleep. She had slept in her sisters room, so shouldnt her sister still be in a deep sleep at this time?
Jing Zhi let go of Zheng Yuwei and smiled evilly.Oh, it seems that my charm is not small. You two sisters are fighting to sleep with me! The sisters little boat capsized just like that! Dont worry, in order to prevent you from fighting, Ill apany you both!
You bastard! Zheng Yuwei immediately cursed. Dont you dare touch my sister!
He even wanted to eat the two sisters, in his dreams!
She had pitied Jing Zhi for being tortured like that, but now she only thought he was detestable.
Zheng yuluo was afraid that her sister would be bullied by Jing Zhi again. Her eyes were full of tears as she pleaded,Jing Zhi, dont touch my sister. Its all my fault. It was also my fault that you were caught again. It has nothing to do with my sister. Please let her go!
The two sisters clearly had the same face, but Zheng yuluo had a strong aura of a ssical beauty. At this moment, her teary appearance was even more touching!
Jing Zhis heart skipped a beat. He reached out to hold Zheng yuluos slender waist, picked her up, and jumped out of the window that he had opened when he came.
Sister ...
Before he could say the word sister, Zheng Yuwei immediately covered her mouth.
She didnt dare to shout loudly. She was so anxious that she was running around in circles, and her tears kept flowing.
She grabbed her sisters down jacket and ran out barefooted, but when she ran out of the door, Jing Zhi and her sister were gone.
Zheng Yuwei squatted down sadly, hugged her knees with both hands, and cried bitterly,Sister ... Sister,e back ... Ill go in your ce. Pleasee back!
Zheng yuluo saw her sister crying at the door of her house from afar, and her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
However, as long as his sister was fine, he didnt mind letting her suffer for a while and cry for a while!
She wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis neck and said with tears in her eyes,Jing Zhi, dont touch my sister, will you?
Jing Zhi felt inexplicably irritated when he saw Zheng yuluo crying like this. He said coldly,If you continue to cry, Ill F * ck her right now!
Zheng yuluo immediately stopped crying and said, I wont cry, I wont cry!
The girl in his arms quieted down and wrapped her arms around his neck. Jing Zhis mood finally improved when their soft bodies pressed against each other.
He carried Zheng yuluo back to the hotel and left her alone in the room.| On the big bed.
The bedsheets and quilt on the bed were all new. All the traces of yesterday had disappeared, and it was as clean as if nothing had happened.
However, as soon as Zheng yuluoy in bed, she could remember everything that had happenedst night. Her face quickly turned pale, but she suddenly blushed as if she had thought of something. Her face looked as if it could bleed.
She had learned her lesson fromst night. She did not take off her underwear when she went to bed that night. She was not wearing a nightgown, but a long-sleeved plush pajamas.
Zheng yuluo clutched her pajamas tightly, as if she was afraid that Jing Zhi would strip her naked.
However, the more she feared something, the more it happened.
Jing Zhi didnt give her any time to react. He pressed down on her and reached out to take off her clothes.
When Zheng yuluos skin touched his cold fingers, she trembled in fear and almost screamed!
That feeling was as if an ice block had fallen into her clothes!
She quickly covered her mouth to stop herself from shouting.
Its okay, you dont have to cover your mouth, just shout out loud. I like to hear you shout. You were already shouting so loudly yesterday that your throat was hoarse!
Jing Zhis words were very ambiguous, but there was no affection in his eyes and no expression on his face. Zheng yuluo only felt a cold and ufortable feeling.
A few secondster, Zheng yuluos pajamas were taken off, revealing her light purple underwear.
Jing Zhi stared at the bra for a whole minute until Zheng yuluo was so embarrassed and angry that she was heartbroken.
Chapter 977
Chapter 977: I owe him
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluos beautiful body waspletely exposed to Jing Zhi.
She was embarrassed and scared, and she instinctively curled up to escape.
But Jing Zhi didnt give her any chance to escape. He pressed his big hand on her slender thigh to stop her from moving.
Last night, he had touched a woman for the first time. He was so impulsive that he could not control himself. He did not even take a closer look at Zheng yuluos beauty.
Seeing his perfect body today, Jing Zhi still had a strong desire in his heart, but he could finally control himself and not be so eager.
Zheng yuluo was about to go crazy!
She didnt even care to cover her chest and covered her lower body in embarrassment.Y-y-you ... You cant look!
She propped her upper body up and looked down to see Jing Zhi pressing down on her. She waspletely naked, but Jing Zhis clothes were neat and tidy, and he still looked like a proper and elegant young master.
Zheng yuluo felt extremely embarrassed!
She struggled to get away, but Jing Zhi unbuttoned his shirt slowly, one button at a time, revealing his muscr chest.
Zheng yuluo was so frightened that she quickly closed her eyes. She heard the sound of him taking off his clothes and felt him on her body. Her face instantly turned red.
However, her face did not stay red for long. It quickly turned pale.
The moment theybined, she was in so much pain that she almost cried.
The pain today was no less than the first time!
She closed her eyes and endured the pain passively, hoping that Jing Zhi would end it soon.
She didnt even dare to struggle, because the more she struggled, the more violent Jing Zhi would be.
After an unknown amount of time, Zheng yuluo fell asleep from exhaustion.
Satisfied, Jing Zhi got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
He came out of the shower wrapped in a bath towel and saw Zheng yuluo sleeping on the bed. He hesitated for a moment, then picked her up and went into the bathroom.
The warm water sshed on Zheng yuluos body, waking her up from her daze.
When she saw where she was, she was shocked!
Why did Jing Zhi carry her into the bathroom?
She subconsciously struggled, but her butt was pped.
Jing Zhi said in a cold voice,Dont move!
Zheng yuluo was shocked. Her butt was burning with pain. Jing Zhi had not held back at all!
In fact, Jing Zhi had already held back. However, he was much stronger than ordinary people, so even if he only used 10% of his strength, Zheng yuluo still felt unbearable pain.
Zheng yuluo didnt dare to move anymore. She obediently leaned on Jing Zhi and let him do whatever he wanted.
Then, she realized that Jing Zhi was helping her shower.
She was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in!
No need, no need. Ill take a shower myself. You ... You can go out first ...
She wasnt wearing any clothes, but Jing Zhi wasn t. As long as Zheng yuluo lowered her head, she would be able to see that part of him was in high spirits!
She had never seen this before!
She had kept her eyes closed the entire night. She didnt even dare to look at Jing Zhis face, let alone his lower body.
Now that she saw Jing Zhis body, she was at a loss. Her whole body went limp.
Jing Zhi turned a deaf ear to her words. He washed Zheng yuluos body, wrapped her in a bath towel, and carried her out.
It took him less than five minutes to shower Zheng yuluo, but in just five minutes, Jing Zhi almost couldnt help but do her in the bathroom!
However, when they were in bed just now, Jing Zhi had already seen that Zheng yuluos tender part was already red and swollen. He knew that her body had reached its limit.
He threw Zheng yuluo on the bed as if she was worthless. He didnt even look at her before he turned around and went to another bedroom to sleep.
Zheng yuluo was relieved to see him leave.
However, she did not know why, but at the same time as she rxed, she also felt a trace of pain in her heart.
When Jing Zhi was giving her a bath, she had been flustered, but there had been a glimmer of hope in her heart. However, when she saw him throw her on the bed heartlessly and walk away heartlessly, the hope in her heart disappeared without a trace.
Sheughed bitterly at herself. Zheng yuluo, are you crazy? Hes bullying you like this, what are you hoping for!
Zheng yuluo buried herself in the nket, almost suffocating from the pain.
She didnt want this to happen!
If this continued, she would be beyond saving!
She wanted to hate Jing Zhi, but no matter how hard she tried to convince herself, she couldnt bring herself to hate him.
She had really gone crazy!
Jing Zhi was lying in another bedroom. It was cold and empty beside him. Without the fragrance of a woman and the soft body of a woman, he gradually came back to his senses. The cold Jing Zhi was back.
Zheng Yuwei didnt sleep all night. She stood by the window, waiting for her sister toe home.
It wasnt until another taxi appeared in the hazy morning light that she seemed toe to life and ran downstairs.
Seeing her sistering home with a mans coat for the second time, Zheng Yuweis heart felt like it was broken. It hurt so much that she almost fainted!
She and her sister were twins, and they had always had a magical telepathic connection. Her sister was bullied by Jing Zhi, and Zheng Yuwei was in so much pain that she felt as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
She handed the fare she had prepared to the driver and watched him leave. She hugged Zheng yuluo and cried,Sister!
Zheng yuluo could not help but shed tears.Weiwei ...
Her whole body was in pain, so, so much pain, and her heart was even more painful! It was so ufortable!
Zheng Yuwei hurriedly wiped her sisters tears.Sister, dont cry. Lets ask Dad for help. I cant beat him, but I cant let him bully you like this! Father will definitely have a way!
Don t!
Zheng yuluo held her sisters hand tightly and refused with a panicked expression.Wei Wei, dont tell dad, and dont tell mom! Theyll definitely fight with uncle Jing for me. Dont tell them! Even if he did, it wouldnt help. Jing Zhi was uncle Jings son and he would protect Jing Zhi. The situation will be even worse!
Then what should we do? Are you going to let him bully you like this? Sister, my heart hurts! I dont want you to suffer so much!
Zheng yuluos voice suddenly became low.Wei Wei, this is nothing. I owe him. Ive heard everything he said to youst night. Compared to the torture he suffered, what I did was nothing. Besides, he didnt ...
Zheng Yuwei didnt know what was going on and asked anxiously,What do you mean?
I didnt go too far ...
Zheng yuluos voice was almost inaudible. She was definitely embarrassed to say such things in front of her sister.
She knew very well that Jing Zhi was just taking revenge on her, but he didnt really want to kill her. He was rough when he vented his anger, but he didnt torture her on purpose.
Perhaps it was because of this that she could not hate him.

Chapter 978: You have a girlfriend?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi watched Zheng yuluo disappear into the taxi in the morning before he looked away and started to eat breakfast.
When Peter walked in, it saw Jing Zhi devouring his food in big gulps. He was half-naked.| She was naked, revealing her strong and healthy pecs.
Its winter, why are you eating breakfast naked?
Are you blind? Cant you see that Im only wearing a pair of underwear?
What was going on? The smell of gunpowder was already so strong so early in the morning. Who had offended this great devil?
Peters face was filled with doubt, but it did not want to be at a disadvantage.Youre the blind one! Wearing only a pair of underwear for breakfast was a change.| Thats something only a show-off would do! Im not Gay, why are you dressed so seductively?| You wont seed even if you lure me!
Jing Zhi was so angry that heughed.
With your unkempt beard and your old age, who would be blind enough to seduce you? If you have something to say, say it. Im in my own territory, I can wear whatever I want, its none of your business!
Peter was 37 years old this year and had grown a little beard on its face. It did give off the feeling of a middle-aged uncle.
However, he was tall and fit all year round. His body was in good shape. In addition, he had a typical European face, with short, naturally curly brown hair, deep facial features, and a straight nose. He was actually a handsome man. If it were not for his beard, many people would believe that he was 30 years old.
As a matter of fact, there were many more girls who liked him than Jing Zhi, because he was more mature and steady, and he liked to wear all kinds of suits. He exuded the charm of a mature man from the inside out, and most women couldnt resist him.
Peter was not angry at Jing Zhi for making fun of its age.
He had never felt that he was old. He was European, and many people in Europe only got married in their 30S. He had little interest in marriage, and he was most interested in viral research.
Im here to borrow some blood from you!
Peter had a favor to ask of them, so its handsome face was full of smiles.
Jing Zhis face turned cold immediately,get out of here! Youre really thick-skinned, why dont you borrow my life to use! To think that Ive been treating you as a good person for the past few days, but it turns out that youre not human at all! Youre just like those bastards!
Peter knew that asking for Jing Zhis blood would make him angry. Jing Zhi was already scared of people drawing his blood. Every time someone wanted to draw his blood, he couldnt help but get angry and have a strong urge to kill.
Jing Zhi was still sitting there. He was already showing him respect by not throwing him out of the window.
No, no, no, Jing Zhi, dont get angry yet. I only need ten milliliters of blood, not a few hundred milliliters like the people in the Research Institute. I dont need that much blood to do the experiment alone.
10 ml of blood isnt blood? Im a human, not ab rat! It wasnt easy for my brother to take care of those people, but you still want to continue with your stupid experiments! Dont think that just because youre my brothers man, I wont dare to kill you! Jing Zhi was so angry that he couldnt even eat anymore. He picked up a stainless steel fork and was about to stab it into Peter!
Peter was so scared that its face turned pale. Why did Jing Zhi make a move just like that?! With this fork in his chest, even if he didnt die, he would be half dead!
Dont do it, dont do it! Peter was so frightened that it quickly dodged backward.I want your blood to study a virus. Your virus is too rare. Wont your body be greatly affected as well? My research might be able to help your body achieve a certain bnce! We have to at least find a way to contain it. Otherwise, if it touches your blood, itll die. This will cause many innocent people to lose their lives!
Jing Zhi paused and asked doubtfully,Really?
He didnt want his blood to be so poisonous. What if the people closest to him touched his blood one day and were beyond saving?
Of course! I definitely cant crack the secret of the virus on my own. There are so many people in the Research Institute who have been researching for so many years and still havent been able to do it. I dont want to try anymore. But I want to see if we can develop a drug to suppress this virus. If its sessful, maybe the crisis of the virus outbreak in your body will be resolved.
Jing Zhi was still worried. Wait, Ill ask my brother. If he says its okay, then its okay! He said. If he says no, then no way!
It would be better to let his brother handle this matter. Peter was his person, and only he knew best if it was reliable. Otherwise, what if the developed drug was harmful to him?
Jing Zhi sat back down with his fork and continued to eat.
Peter heaved a sigh of relief. It had already asked its Big Boss, Jing Rui, about this matter and Jing Rui had agreed to it. Otherwise, it would not havee to Jing Zhi.
He was also a fanatic when it came to Virus Research, but he wasnt stubborn. To him, cracking a virus was even more satisfying than fighting a beautiful woman. That sense of satisfaction and aplishment was something that nothing could rece.
Sure, you can ask the Boss. Ill be leaving first. Call me again when you have more urate information.
Jing Zhi listened to Jing Rui the most. As long as Jing Rui agreed, the matter would be settled.
Wait a moment!
Is there anything else?
Um ... I want some medicine for my wounds!
Peter looked at Jing Zhi, who was almostpletely exhausted, in confusion.I dont see any injuries on you! Even if youre injured, I dont think theres any medicine that canpare to the healing power of the virus in your body, right?
Why do you care! I just want the medicine, are you going to give it to me or not! If you don t, dont even think about getting my blood!
Good, good, good, here, here, here! Peter gave in without any principles.But you have to at least tell me where you got hurt, right? If I dont know the location, how am I supposed to prescribe medicine for you? Theres a big difference between using medicine when the head is broken and the feet are broken!
Jing Zhi pulled a long face and said after a while,Yin| The Dao is injured!
Peter waited for a full minute and did not expect to receive such an answer. It almost choked to death on its own saliva!
You, you, you ... Where are you?!
Peter knew Jing Zhis body structure better than Jing Zhi himself. The Research Institute had already made detailed records of every single cell in his body, so how could Peter not know that Jing Zhi had such an organ?
Jing Zhis face darkened,are you retarded? Did I say it was me? It was a woman! How can a man have that kind of thing!
Peter really wanted to say that any man who had it would have it! It was just that the probability of it happening was very, very low.
But he couldnt say anything, because Jing Zhi was going to hit him again. This violent maniac could not be provoked!
Ahem ... Okay, I know.
Peter knew that back at the Virus Research Institute, Jing Zhi had never touched a woman before. But now, he was actually asking for that kind of medicine from a woman. Could it be that he had a woman already?
Jing Zhi, you have a girlfriend?

Chapter 979: Buying underwear
Trantor: 549690339
Ones sex life would affect the secretion of hormones in the body, which would then affect the concentration of the virus in the body. This was rted to his scientific research, so Peter had to get to the bottom of this.
Who said so? Jing Zhi asked. I dont have any!
Peter blinked its eyes and rephrased it. You have a sexual partner?
This time, Jing Zhi didnt say anything.
Peter immediately understood!
The little virgin had be a man! And he didnt know restraint and hurt the girl!
Peter shook its head. Hai, young people are too crazy! Jing Zhi had probably been holding back for the past few years. It was normal for him to be a little crazy when he suddenly got excited.
He couldnt help but remind her,dont be too unrestrained. The Research Institute didnt let you touch women for your own good! Your body wont be able to take it at all! Inparison, it has a much smaller impact on women.
Jing Zhis expression turned a little ugly. He got up and pushed Peter away.Get lost, get lost, I dont need you to teach me! Youre already 37 years old, but I dont see you with a woman. Is it because you cant do that, so youre trying to suppress my masculinity?
Peter was so infuriated by him that it leaned back!
He had kindly reminded Jing Zhi not to overindulge himself, but Jing Zhi had mocked him for being impotent.
He wanted to take off his pants and show Jing Zhi if he could do it.
Forget it, you can do whatever you want! I dont care!
Bring the best medicine, and make sure it takes effect immediately!
Where can I find medicine that takes effect immediately? Im not an immortal!
The Research Institute has developed so many drugs in the past, and many of them have amazing effects! Hmph, I know everything you have! Dont try to fool me!
Peter felt that it was so angry that its hair was standing on end!
His good gentlemanly and Noble temperament had been destroyed by this little rascal in front of him!
The ones that show fast effects all contain all kinds of viruses! While it promotes recovery, it also has serious side effects, are you sure you want to use it?
Jing Zhi was immediately dumbfounded.
He hesitated for a while and said unwillingly,Then forget it! I want one without the virus!
Peter left in a Huff. On the way back to the hospital, it immediately reported to Jing Rui that Jing Zhi had a woman.
He did not have the ability to investigate Jing Zhis woman, so it was better to leave it to Jing Rui, his brother.
However, he felt that Jing Zhi treated the woman quite well. He didnt even want to use a virus to help her recover faster.
He had to tell Jing Rui all the details so that he could make the most urate judgment.
Jing Zhi did not know that he had been betrayed by Peter in the blink of an eye. He finished his breakfast, got dressed, and left the house.
After he came to city A, he didnt buy many clothes. Now that Zheng yuluo had worn two coats, he only had a down jacket left in his closet.
He nned to go to the mall to buy some clothes and some gifts before making a trip home.
It was going to be the new year tomorrow and Jing Yiran had asked him to go home many times.
Jing Zhi bought a lot of clothes and gifts at the mall when he saw a lingerie shop.
He walked in as if he was possessed.
The shopping mall Jing Zhi was in was family Jing s. It was also the top shopping mall in A city, and it sold all kinds of high-end luxury brands.
Therefore, when the staff in the store saw a maning to a womens underwear store, they showed good manners and did notugh at him at all.
The staff didntugh at him, but the women who were buying underwear in the store looked at Jing Zhi with a strange expression.
No matter how strong Jing Zhis mental fortitude was, he couldnt help but feel ufortable being stared at like this. He felt ufortable buying his own underwear, not to mention buying womens underwear.
Fortunately, he was wearing a pair ofrge sunsses, so no one could tell who he was.
He wasnt picky and pointed at the row of undergarments, saying in a rich and overbearing manner,Wrap them up, I want them all!
The waiter had to use a lot of effort to control his strange and surprised expression!
She had thought that a man who was very considerate to his girlfriend or wife hade. After all, there were basically no men who would be willing to buy underwear for their women these days. She didnt expect that the man would sweep through the entire row without looking at the size!
Did this person have some weird fetishes? Does he like to collect womens undergarments?
The female customers in the store looked at Jing Zhi with undisguised contempt, almost calling him a hooligan!
He was really a nouveau riche! And he was a nouveau riche who was obsessed with underwear!
The waitress was very sweet. She showed a professional smile and even her eyes seemed very sincere.Sir, these undergarments are of different sizes. Some are for slimmer people, and some are for more voluptuous people. Are you sure you want all of them?
Jing Zhi was taken aback. He had never bought undergarments before, so he didnt know the details.
He nced at the waiters in the shop and suddenly pointed at one of them.I want something simr to her!
The waitress who was pointed at by Jing Zhi blushed in embarrassment and almost wanted to find a hole to hide in.
The other waitresses wanted tough, but they held it in. Then they all went out to help Jing Zhi pack his undergarments.
Jing Zhi saw that they had wrapped their undergarments so beautifully and said immediately, Theres no need for a bag, just find a bag and put it in!
Why is the bag so good-looking!
Zheng yuluo would think that he had bought it for her!
How embarrassing!
He didnt buy it for her! He was doing it for ... For ...
Forget it, its not for anything. Im happy to buy it!
The waiter had to follow his instructions and put all the undergarments into a big ck bag.
Their undergarments were all high-end undergarments that cost a few thousand Yuan each. In the end, they were all stuffed in such a mess. It really felt like they were cheap goods from a roadside stall! The few service staff were on the verge of tears. Their underwear was not sold by weight!
However, they had earned a lot from this order! It was rare to meet such a big customer. Who cared if he bought it for himself or for his girlfriend?
The few of them bowed and sent the nouveau riche off, all of them smiling and weing him toe again next time!
Jing Zhi carried a big bag of undergarments, but he didnt want toe back.
He felt that his body must have been controlled by a ghost. Otherwise, why would hee to buy underwear for Zheng yuluo?
Forget it, he had torn two pairs of her underwear. He would just take it as returning them to her, so that she would not leave naked every morning.
Jing Zhis body heated up at the thought of her wearing nothing but his coat.
Chapter 980
Chapter 980: Our son has grown crooked!
Trantor: 549690339
It was winter, but Jing Zhi had to drink two bottles of ice water to suppress his heat.
He stopped a taxi and went to Jing Yirans ce with all his bags.
Now that he had recovered a portion of his memories, he was already quite familiar with his home.
Jing Yiran was so happy to see his son that he helped him carry his things into the house.
When the things were ced in the living room, Jing Yiran turned to Qianqian subconsciously, wondering if his son had brought the clothes back and was preparing to live in the house.
Sure enough, his sons clothes were all in the paper bags!
Chi, are you going home? Jing Yiran was very happy.
Jing Zhi was so attracted by the aroma of the food that he almost drooled. He wanted to run into the kitchen and eat the delicious food.
Hearing Jing Yirans question, he came back to himself.Oh, I wont be going home for the time being. Im fine staying in the hotel!
How could he torture Zheng yuluo at home? It wouldnt be good if her father heard her if she shouted too loudly!
Jing Yiran was a little disappointed. He had thought that his son woulde back to live with him.
But he was happy soon. Nothing was more important than his sons safety. Jing Zhi was all grown up now and it didnt matter where he lived. They were both in A city and he could visit his son whenever he missed him.
Jing Yiran got excited and joked,Why did you only buy so many things for yourself and not for me?
Oh, I bought it. Its in the bag. Ill go look for food! Jing Zhi couldnt resist the temptation of food, so he got up and went to the kitchen.
She actually bought it for him?
Jing Yiran was quite surprised.
Haha, my son has grown up! You even know how to buy dad a New Year present!
Jing Yiran opened a bulging bag in a hurry and was shocked by what was inside.
His expression was extremely interesting, and his fingers were trembling a little.Son, did you buy this for me?
Jing Zhi was already a few meters away. He turned around when he heard what he said. His face turned ck.
He quickly walked back and snatched the bag.This one isn t! Yours is in the other bag! The little one!
What kind of IQ did his father have!
How could he possibly buy a bunch of womens underwear for him!
Jing Yiran let out a sigh of relief. It was good that it was not for him.
He had thought that his sons preferences in certain aspects had be strange after staying abroad for so many years!
However, if the lingerie was not for him, then who was it for? It cant be that my son is wearing it, right?
Jing Yiran broke out in a cold sweat. He didnt care about his present anymore. He grabbed Jing Zhis hand and asked seriously,Then whats with these undergarments?
Jing Zhi regretted it so much.
He would be crazy to buy these things. Now, even if he had eight mouths, he wouldnt be able to exin himself! He could not say that he bought it for Zheng yuluo, right? Even he himself felt that this was a fantasy!
He drooped his head in despair and said weakly,My brain went haywire, so I bought it for fun.
Hearing his sons words, Jing Yiran was so shocked that he almost bit off his own tongue.
He wailed in pain,ah Chi, you cant y with this in the future! This was a womans thing! Youre a man, throw these things away, dont leave a single one!
His son had indeed grown up in the wrong way!
Its all those bastards fault!
They must have taught their son some nonsense and led him astray!
No, no, he had to personally teach his son about the world and outlook on life in the future!
Jing Yiran looked so righteous at this moment, but he had forgotten that he had done much worse things than Jing Zhi when he was young.
Jing Zhi ran off to the kitchen, annoyed by his scolding. He and the chef in the kitchen became Good Brothers in no time.
Jing Yiran sighed helplessly. Looking at the pile of undergarments, he felt that something was not right.
He felt that his son shouldnt be that kind of person!
He shook his head and opened the small paper bag. Then, he saw an exquisite razor and a luxurious lighter embedded with diamonds.
Not bad, not bad. His sons taste was very good, and these two things were very practical. It seemed that his son had put in a lot of effort to help him pick them.
Jing Yiran smiled with satisfaction when he heard his son yelling in the kitchen, saying that this dish was delicious, that dish was delicious, and that the chef uncle Wang was called brother.
Its great that our son is home!
Jing Rui was really something. He had been helpless when his son went missing, but Jing Rui had managed to bring him back without a word.
Jing Rui had suffered a lot for Jing Zhi.
This nephew of his was simr to Jing Yichen in the past. In the past, When the Sky Fell, his brother would be there to support it. But now, When the Sky Fell, his nephew would be there.
Lunch was soon ready. The father and son sat at the table. Jing Zhi ate with all his might, while Jing Yiran kept putting food into his bowl with a smile.
His smile was very bright. His son and his wife were both big eaters and could eat a lot!
It would be great if his wife coulde back, and the three of them would be reunited!
Unfortunately, she was still in North America and Jing Rui had given her an important task. She would not be back for a while.
Now, Jing Yiran had gotten over it. It didnt matter if his wife couldnt go home, as long as she was safe.
With Jing Rui looking after her in North America and his wifes strength, she would not be in any danger.
He just didnt know what she was doing there. Why did it feel like his nephew was going to contact his wife and turn North America upside down?
Jing Zhi had no idea what was going on in his fathers mind. He was enjoying his meal. The food made by the familys chef was so delicious. His favorite beef was so tender and fragrant. He would swallow his own tongue if he were to sprinkle ayer of ck pepper and tomato sauce on it.
He had decided that he would not order food from the hotel in the future. He would go home to eat!
The father and son were both very happy. The two of them opened a few bottles of beer, red wine, and white wine, and got drunk.
In the evening, Jing Yiran was still fast asleep, but Jing Zhi was woken up by the smell of rice.
When the dinner was ready, Jing Zhi woke Jing Yiran up. They had another round of drinks and Jing Yiran was drunk.
Jing Zhi was also slightly tipsy. He had drunk more, but the virus in his body had a strong ability to break down alcohol, so he was less affected.
He ate and drank to his hearts content, then walked out shakily.
Uncle Wang, the chef, hurriedly caught up with them with big and small bags.Ah Chi, you forgot to take something!
Chapter 981
Chapter 981: A different pair of twins
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi grinned,good brother! Thank you so much, I almost forgot about it! I dont even have any clothes to wear!
Uncle Wang was much older than Jing Yiran, so he felt a bit awkward when Jing Zhi called him brother. Because Jing Yiran called him uncle Wang like everyone else.
Jing Zhi had no concept of seniority. He called him brother because he thought it was easy to say.
He said goodbye to uncle Wang and went back to the hotel with many bags.
At midnight, he went to the Zheng family on time.
After taking a nap in the afternoon, he felt full of energy and was in a good mood.
However, when he saw Zheng Yuwei again in Zheng yuluos room, his good mood was ruined.
Zheng Yuwei, do you think that I have a good temper? Do you think that I dont dare to kill you? Or did Zheng yuluo ask you to do this? She doesnt want to serve me anymore, so shes letting you do it?
No! I know youre much stronger than me, but I have no intention of challenging you! This has nothing to do with my sister. I made my own decision to knock her out and rece her!
Jing Zhis face was cold, and his eyes were full of murderous intent. Dont y tricks with me. I want Zheng yuluo, not you! If theres a next time, both of you can forget about living!
As he spoke, he turned around and left, wanting to go to the next room to find Zheng yuluo.
Dont go!
My sister and I are twins, and we look and figure very simr. Just treat me as my sister! Zheng Yuwei hurriedly called out to him. As long as you let my sister go, Ill go with you in her ce!
Jing Zhi turned around and slowly walked to Zheng Yuwei. He lifted his hand and pinched her chin, saying in a disdainful tone,I hate people like you who throw yourself into my arms the most! Since you two look the same, why should I switch? When Im tired of her, Ill y with her in a different way!
You dont deserve to touch my sister! Youre not human! My sister has sacrificed so much for you. She didnt even go to school and went all over the world to look for you. She had nightmares every day and was worried about you!
Zheng Yuwei had been able to speak to Jing Zhi in a low voice, but after hearing what he said, she couldnt control her temper anymore.
Shes under so much pressure that she can only fall asleep with sleeping pills. Even her height and weight are greatly affected! Shes so thin all because of you! In the end, you actually treated her like this. Youll be struck by lightning! Youd better kill me, or Ill definitely avenge my sister!
Jing Zhi smiled coldly and said,e on, take revenge! Struck by lightning? Hahaha, the ones who should be struck by lightning are you!
After he finished speaking, he grabbed Zheng Yuweis clothes and lifted her up.
His cor was tightly wrapped around Zheng Yuweis neck, and she couldnt breathe at all!
Her feet were hanging in the air, and Jing Zhi was the only support she had.
She struggled in pain, feeling as if she was about to suffocate and die in the next second.
Suddenly, she was thrown onto the bed by Jing Zhi.
Like a fish out of the shore suddenly entering the water, Zheng Yuwei desperately took deep breaths. In a little while, she would die without a doubt!
She watched as Jing Zhi strode away, her heart filled with lingering fear.
She was still too impulsive!
If Jing Zhi really wanted to kill her, she would have died a hundred times over.
She was lying on the bed when she heard the soft sound of the door and window opening next door. She suddenly got up quickly and looked down from the window.
As expected, Jing Zhi had taken her sister away again.
Zheng Yuwei suddenly wanted to give herself two ps!
She really was an idiot!
For the past two days, her sister had been taken away while she was awake, but today, she had drugged her sister, so she was unconscious!
Were finished!
Her sister was tortured by Jing Zhi even when she was awake. If she lost any ability to fight back, she would be toyed with by Jing Zhi.
Zheng Yuwei didnt even bother to put on her shoes and ran out barefooted.
She could vaguely see Jing Zhis blurry figure, so she chased after him with all her might. But as she chased after him, even the blurry figure disappeared.
During the day, she had asked her sister many times where she had been taken, but her sister refused to say.
She knew that her sister was afraid that Jing Zhi would bully her if she went there.
In the silent night, cold snow fell from the sky. She stood there alone, lost and helpless.
She hated herself. She hated herself for not being able to save her sister!
She looked exactly like her sister, but why did Jing Zhi like to torture her sister but not touch her?
If he wanted to take revenge on the two sisters, she would take the initiative to send herself to his door. Wouldnt that be exactly what he wanted?
Why did he refuse?
No, thats not right!
In other peoples eyes, she was the same as his sister, but Jing Zhi didnt even need to look at their faces or listen to their voices to tell them apart.
In his heart, she waspletely different from his sister!
Zheng Yuwei had a vague answer in her heart, but the answer was too outrageous. She only hesitated for a second before she erased the answer.
However, even if she had erased the answer, Zheng Yuwei still felt a little better.
At least, as her sister had said yesterday, Jing Zhi was rough, but not violent.
She didnt need to worry that her sister would be beaten up by him. She didnt need to worry about her sister being tortured.
She prayed in her heart, hoping that Jing Zhineng would treat her better for the sake of her sisters wholehearted devotion to him.
Jing Zhi carried Zheng yuluo back to the hotel for the third time. The hotel staff was already used to it.
Back in the hotel room, Jing Zhi threw Zheng yuluo on the bed.
Zheng Yuwei learned from yesterdays lesson and knew that her sister was resistant to sleeping pills, so in order to prevent her from waking up, the dosage was doubled.
Therefore, Zheng yuluo was in a deep sleep. Even after being thrown onto the bed, she showed no signs of waking up.
Jing Zhiy down next to her and watched her sleep like a kitten. He felt a ripple in his heart.
Zheng Yuwei had said today that they were twins, and he could treat her as Zheng yuluo.
How could this be possible?
No matter how simr they looked, they were still different.
Furthermore, the two sisters had such a huge difference in personality. Even their breathing, breathing, and heartbeat were different!
Other people or many others would not care about this, because it was difficult for ordinary people to distinguish these things.
But to Jing Zhi, these things were so clear that he could tell them apart with his eyes closed.
He quietly looked at the young girl beside him. The way she slept was gentle and lovely, without a trace of defense.
There was a smile on his lips that he didnt even notice.
Chapter 982
Chapter 982: Im afraid of you, but I dont hate you
Trantor: 549690339
Perhaps she knew that she would be taken away by him again tonight, so she didnt wear pajamas. Instead, she wore a sweater and fine velvet pants.
Jing Zhi suddenly realized that she looked good in anything.
He stared at her face for a while, then got up and took off her clothes.
After taking off Zheng yuluos clothes, Jing Zhi waspletely awake.
He wanted her, but he didnt like to be the only one awake and moving. He had no interest in being in a daze.
He liked to see her reaction, even if it was crying.
Jing Zhi went to the bathroom and took a cold shower. He felt better.
He wrapped himself in a bath towel and took the medicine that Peter had sent over that night. He walked over to the bed and applied the medicine for her.
No wonder he was injured!
Even though Zheng yuluo was unconscious, her body automatically reacted to the pain.
She frowned and snorted.
Jing Zhi was startled. He thought she had woken up and quickly hid the medicine.
However, when she looked up, she saw that Zheng yuluo was still asleep. She was only groaning in pain because it was too painful.
Jing Zhi couldnt help but slow down.
He had never done such a gentle thing in his life! This was not his style at all!
He suddenly threw the ointment on the ground angrily. Was he sick? Why did he have to apply medicine for her? Shed rather die from the pain!
Jing Zhi paced back and forth in his bedroom in frustration. He became even more frustrated when he saw the naked and beautiful body on the bed.
He pulled the nket over Zheng yuluo and covered her entirely. His frustration only subsided a little when he could not see her.
He went to the room next door, but just as heid down, he sat up again.
There was clearly a warm bed, so why did he have to sleep here alone?
Who cares? didnt he capture Zheng yuluo to enjoy himself?
Jing Zhi got out of bed with a dark face. He went to the master bedroom, snuggled under the nket, and took her soft and fragrant body into his arms.
This time, he finally feltfortable.
In the quiet night, on the soft bed, a handsome man and a beautiful woman were hugging each other, immersed in their own dreams.
The moon and the sun rose, and the snow that had been falling for the whole night gradually stopped. The outside was covered in silver and white, and the drop of water turned into ice. However, the inside was warm and beautiful, and it was a beautiful spring scenery.
Jing Zhi looked at Zheng yuluos sleeping face, but he had mixed feelings.
Jing Zhis memory of her and Zheng Yuwei, the twin sisters, had all sorts of fragments, but each fragment was not a good memory.
He remembered that they had never taken him seriously when they were young. They only cared about Jing Rui, who was outstanding in all aspects.
Jing Zhi had been looking forward to getting his memories back when he had lost them, but now that he had, he didnt want them anymore.
Zheng yuluo opened her eyes. After a brief moment of confusion, she soon found herself lying in Jing Zhis arms.
Whats going on!
She only had memories ofst night before she went to bed. She had no memory of how she ended up here!
She opened her eyes wide and stared at Jing Zhis face. A few secondster, she realized something.
She and Jing Rui were hugging each other without any barriers.
Zheng yuluo immediately struggled. She thought she wouldnt be able to break free, but she didnt expect to get away so easily.
Jing Zhi watched as she moved away from him like a frightened deer. He said coldly,Afraid of me? Or do you hate me?
Zheng yuluo froze. Was she afraid of him? He was afraid.
However, she did not hate him.
Jing Zhi caught up with her and pinched her chin.Tell me the truth! If you do well, Ill let you go!
Zheng yuluo didnt know what to say. She hesitated for a long time, until Jing Zhis hand on her chin tightened a little as if he was going to break her jaw. She looked up into Jing Zhis eyes and said softly, Im afraid of you, but I dont hate you.
Her voice was no longer hoarse after recuperating for a day and a night. Instead, it had returned to its usual soft, tender, and sweet voice.
Her words were too sincere, and her eyes were clear, without any signs of lying.
Jing Zhi could also feel that her breathing and heartbeat were steady, and her pupils didnt change.
All of this proved that she was telling the truth.
Jing Zhis eyes darkened. He let go of Zheng yuluos chin, and his big hand moved down her delicate corbones, caressing her gently.
For the past two days, Jing Zhi had always been rough and had never touched Zheng yuluos body like this. Now that he was touching her like this, she couldnt help but tremble.
Zheng yuluos fair body quickly turned red, and her whole body soon turned pink, like a sweet and sour apple that could be picked by anyone.
Then Jing Zhi wrapped his arms around her and pressed himself on top of her.
Zheng yuluos face was so red that it could almost bleed.
She knew that he wanted her again!
Was her answer good or bad?
Didnt he say that he would let her go if she did well?
Did I say something wrong?
Zheng yuluo didnt know that Jing Zhi wouldnt let her go because of her good answer.
Of course, if she didnt give a good answer, Jing Zhi would never let her go.
He didnt care if he kept his word, he just wanted to hear the answer he wanted to hear.
Luckily, Zheng yuluo didnt think that Jing Zhi would let her go. She was used to Jing Zhis domineering ways.
However, Jing Zhi felt a little different today. She couldnt put her finger on what was different.
Zheng yuluo was pressed down by Jing Zhi, and her whole body was filled with his aura.
It only ... Made her shiver in embarrassment!
Zheng yuluo was a little at a loss!
She didnt know how to suppress the desire that came from the soul!
She had been searching for him for seven years. Every day, she would describe his appearance. Every year, she would wait for him to appear.
Her life was already filled with his shadow, and it could no longer be erased.
Ever since she had found him, she had been dreaming of him!

This kind of intimacy made Zheng yuluo feel frightened, but it also made her feel satisfied.
However, she had already discovered her true thoughts. She would rather hold him tightly in fear than lose any news of him.
Zheng yuluo unknowingly hugged Jing Zhis back tightly, and Jing Zhi was directly stimted to the peak by her young and inexperienced initiative.
After one round, Zheng yuluo buried her face in his chest and listened to his breathing. She reminded him shyly,This wont do, you ... I ... Will get pregnant ...
Even if she was embarrassed to say it, Zheng yuluo had to say it. Otherwise, if she were really pregnant, she would not be able to exin it to her parents.
Jing Zhi did not expect Zheng yuluo to say something like that. He was silent for a moment, then said,I wont get pregnant. Im infertile.
Zheng yuluos eyes widened. How could this be?
No one knew better than her what his ability was like!
But Jing Zhi had no reason to lie about this.
Zheng yuluo didnt know how to respond for a moment, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little stiff and cold.
Jing Zhis face was expressionless. He got up, put on some clothes, and went to the bathroom.
Zheng yuluos heart suddenly felt empty.
She wrapped herself tightly in the nket and curled up on the bed.
She couldnt have children ...
Why?
He was so young, so energetic, and so ... Strong.
Zheng yuluos brain was a little numb. She got out of bed and went to look for her clothes. If she went backte, her sister would be worried about her.
There were clothes on the floor, but they were all Jing Zhi s. There was no one for her. Jing Zhi tore it apart again? Or was it thrown away by him? Or was she ... Naked when she camest night?
She couldnt go out wrapped in the sheets, could she?
There were a few paper bags in the room. Zheng yuluo walked over and opened them. They were all clothes that Jing Zhixin had bought.
There was a sweater, a shirt, and a jacket.
Zheng yuluo was afraid that she wouldnt be able to leave after Jing Zhi came out of the shower, so she quickly took out a sweater and was about to put it on.
However, there was still a ck bag that had not been opened. After a slight hesitation, she opened thest bag.
However, Zheng yuluo was shocked when she opened it!
It was all womens underwear!
The logos were still on it, so they were obviously new!
Did Jing Zhi buy this for her?
Zheng yuluo found it unbelievable!
Didnt he always hate her to death? Why would he help her buy lingerie?
She felt a sudden sweetness in her heart. Was Jing Zhi not as cold-hearted as he seemed?
Zheng yuluos lips curled into a smile. She picked a set of underwear and put it on. Then, she put on Jingzhis sweater, a Long Down Jacket, and a pair of disposable slippers.
Something suddenly hit her feet. Zheng yuluo looked down and saw a bottle of ointment.
She picked it up in confusion and immediately blushed!
It was written in English, and the general meaning was: This medicine is mainly used for external genitalia and damage to the pubic region.
She quickly threw the medicine away and ran out in a hurry.
She was wondering why it didnt hurt today. So it was because she had taken medicine!
And the answer was obvious as to who had applied the medicine for her!
Her face burned when she remembered that Jing Zhi had applied medicine on her private part when she was unconscious.
Zheng yuluos face was red until she got into the taxi.
Jing Zhi came out of the bathroom in a bathrobe when he heard the door open and close.
He nced at the new clothes and the bag of underwear that Zheng yuluo had messed up, and his lips couldnt help but curl up.
He stood in front of the window and looked down at Zheng yuluo, who was hurriedly getting into the taxi. There was even a smile in his eyes.
In front of the Zheng familys Vi, Zheng Yuwei was waiting anxiously. For the past two days, her sister had been back very early. Why was she back sote today?
His parents had already woken up. If his sister didnte back soon, they would be exposed!
After waiting for a long time, Zheng yuluo finally arrived. Zheng Yuwei paid the fare, and then the two sisters walked home like thieves.
Fortunately, their parents were washing up in the bathroom and did not notice them. Zheng yuluo was extremely nervous and quickly ran back to her room with her sister.
Sister, hurry up and change your clothes. When momes in and sees you in this, shell definitely ask!
Zheng yuluo didnt want her parents to know about her secret. They had quarreled with Jing Yiran many times because of her. They had finally gotten along in the past two years and she didnt want them to fight again.
What had happened had happened anyway. Even if her father went to settle the score with Jing Yiran, it would not help.
Zheng yuluo quickly took off Jing Zhis coat and his wide sweater, then looked for her pajamas to put on.
Zheng Yuwei was surprised,Sister, this underwear isnt yours, right? They didnt even take off their tags, theyre new!
In the past two years, Zheng Yuwei had been the one who had bought Zheng yuluos underwear.
Zheng yuluo didnt like to shop or buy clothes. Since the sisters had simr figures, every time Zheng Yuwei went to buy her own clothes, she would definitely help Zheng yuluo buy them.
So, Zheng Yuwei knew better than her sister what kind of undergarments she had.
She walked behind Zheng yuluo and took a look at the tag. It said Victorias Secret.
Its Victorias Secrets underwear!
Zheng yuluo blushed and said softly,He ... Bought this ...
Jing Zhi? Zheng Yuwei widened her eyes.
Zheng yuluo nodded with a red face. After thinking for a while, she told her sister about her doubts.He ... Bought a big bag, but I dont know if he bought it for me.
A thought shed through Zheng Yuweis mind. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she didnt say anything.
She didnt dare to make a judgment so as not to mislead her sister.
However, her sister didnt know about undergarments, but she did.Sister, this set of lingerie is from an internationally renowned brand. Each set costs at least a thousand Yuan. In any case ... He didnt neglect you.
She was afraid that her sister would misunderstand that Jing Zhi was trying to fool her with a random stall.
However, Zheng yuluo did not care about this at all.
It didnt matter if it was a street stall or a famous brand, as long as it was bought by Jing Zhi, it was enough.
Zheng Yuwei used a pair of scissors to cut off her sisters tag and helped her put on her clothes. She asked softly,Sister, did he bully youst night?
No, Zheng yuluo blushed and shook her head.
In fact, looking at Zheng yuluos expression, Zheng Yuwei had already guessed that her sister was not bulliedst night.
Her sister came back today, and she looked different from the past two days. Her face was ruddy and she looked very energetic.
Her anxious heart finally calmed down.
It seemed that Jing Zhi didnt take advantage of her and he wasnt as bad as she thought.

Chapter 984: New mission target
Trantor: 549690339
Sister, Im sorry. I wanted to go in your cest night, so I drugged you. But Jing Zhi didnt want me, so he took you away.
Zheng Yuwei apologized to her sister in a low voice. She felt that she had done something stupidst night.
Zheng yuluo had already guessed the reason why she had not woken up all night. When she heard her sisters words, she said angrily,Wei Wei, you cant do this next time! Ive already ... You cant mess around, you hear me! You have to be well. The past has nothing to do with you, so dont get involved.
Zheng yuluo had an indescribable feeling. She couldnt ept the fact that Jing Zhi had taken her sister.
For one thing, she loved her sister. Jing Zhis torture was unbearable and she didnt want her sister to suffer.
Secondly, she just realized that she didnt want Jing Zhi to touch anyone else.
Zheng Yuwei hugged her sister and said softly,Sister, Ill listen to you. I wont mess around in this matter again. However, if he bullies you, you must tell me. Ill help you seek justice!
She didnt know why Jing Zhi had bought lingerie for her sister, but after what had happenedst night, she understood that no matter how cruel Jing Zhi was, he would never kill her.
His sister was safe.
Zheng yuluo heaved a sigh of relief when she heard her sisters words.
She patted Zheng Yuweis shoulder and let go of her. Then she folded Jing Zhis clothes carefully and put them in the closet.
She already had three of Jing Zhis coats and a sweater in her closet.
His clothes were all very big. That sweater was so big that it wrapped around her butt, like a skirt.
Zheng Yuwei saw her sister caressing Jing Zhis clothes in a daze and realized that her sister had a different feeling for Jing Zhi.
She let out a soft sigh and turned around to leave.
His sister had been looking for Jing Zhi for a long time and had been missing him all this time. It was normal for her to have other feelings for him.
Besides, Jing Zhi was too handsome. He was so handsome that girls would fall in love with him if he wasnt so cruel.
Zheng yuluo didnt even notice that her sister had left. She looked at the clothes and was suddenly lost in thought.
Jing Zhi had bought a lot of new clothes, and a few of them were jackets.
Could it be that ... She had put all his clothes on him, so he had no more clothes to wear?
Jing Zhi stood in front of the mirror and changed into a new set of clothes. Looking at the clothes in the bag, he suddenly felt that he had bought too few clothes.
Today, Zheng yuluo had worn two pieces. At this rate, the bags of clothes he had bought would be used up in less than a week!
At the thought of this, he was a little annoyed at his action of hiding Zheng yuluos clothesst night. He could have just let her wear his clothes back home. The clothes he bought were expensive, and Zheng yuluos clothes were not worth much at all! He had suffered a huge loss!
Jing Zhi left the hotel with a hand on his chin and took a taxi home.
He wanted to spend time with Jing Yiran during the new year.
It was a pity that his brother was still in North America and could not go home. Otherwise, he would have liked to spend the new year with him.
The climate in North America was dry and cold. Jing Rui had never cared about the new year, and this year was no exception.
Festivals had no meaning to him. He was more concerned about what kind of efforts he needed to make to fully control the assassin organization.
He had spent a lot of effort to send Lu to the highest authority of the killers organization. Now Lu had enough power topete with Andrew.
However, Lu was not good at managing and winning peoples hearts, so Jing Rui was the one who was in charge of all the big things.
Of course, he was also concerned about his brothers health, safety, and ... His love life.
Before Peter had told him that Jing Zhi had a woman, he had already found out about Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo from his underlings.
Jing Zhi might not know Zheng yuluos personality, but Jing Rui knew her very well.
She wasnt as calctive as Jing Zhi had thought. In fact, her personality had changed a lot since she was a child.
Even if she had a n, she wouldnt try to scheme against Jing Zhi.
What happened seven years ago had already made her change for the better.
Jing Rui was surprised that Jing Zhi had made her his woman, but he did not object to it.
He had been bound for so long and now he was free. Jing Rui would support him in whatever he wanted to do.
However, without Jing Zhis knowledge, Jing Rui had done a thorough check on the sisters, Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei.
Zheng Yuwei had a short rtionship once. She had a few friends of the opposite sex who she had a good rtionship with and often hung out together.
Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, did not even have any male friends. Her life was so monotonous that it was a little boring.
Jing Rui was very satisfied with that.
In his heart, only a woman who had never had a partner of the opposite sex was worthy of his brother, because Jing Zhi had never had a woman before either.
Even if it was just for fun, he couldnt find random people.
Jing Rui could not help but smile when he found out that his brother had bought a bunch of undergarments for Zheng yuluo and had even asked Peter for some special medicine.
Jing Zhi wasnt just ying around.
The internal power struggle would not affect the business of the assassin organization.
The killing was carried out every day.
Jing Rui had been taking on missions all the time, but he was not going to do it today.
That was because the target of this mission was none other than Shu Yin!
Shuyin had only been in North America for less than half a month. How could she have an enemy?
In the past, she rarely left the Virus Research Institute, so she didnt have any mortal enemies.
No one understood Shuyin better than him. Three years ago, he had already thoroughly investigated Shuyins identity. Perhaps even Shuyin herself didnt know her as well as he did.
Jing Rui had checked the employer. He was a rich second generation international student in the country. He was twenty years old and was studying in the same university as Shuyin.
On the surface, it looked like he wanted to kill because he failed, but this matter could not stand up to scrutiny at all. Shuyin had just entered the school, how could someone love her to the point of killing her!
The real employer must be someone else.
It was getting dark. Jing Rui changed into casual clothes, took his equipment, and left the base.
Jing Rui had been in North America for many years, and he was familiar with the way to a University.
He drove for more than an hour before he arrived at Stanford University, where Shuyin studied.
Since Shuyin entered the school, Jing Rui had sent people to protect her, so he knew her dormitory very well.
Shuyin had just finished showering and was wrapped in a bath towel. She hadnt had time to dry her hair when she saw a person jump in from the window. She was almost scared to death!
She lived on the 11th floor, so it was not easy for her to get in through the window!
Just as she was about to call for help, she heard a familiar and deep voice say,Shuyin, its me.
Chapter 985
Chapter 985: Why are you protecting me
Trantor: 549690339
Shu Yin was stunned. She called out his name in disbelief,Jing Rui?!
He was wearing a mask that covered his handsome and perfect face, but his voice didnt change at all. His temperament was still cold and Noble, and he was full of oppression.
Jing Rui stood in her single dormitory, tall but distant.Pack up, I have something to tell you.
Shuyin did not expect Jing Rui to be in North America, nor did she expect him to jump in through the window!
She was only wrapped in a bath towel and was wearing nothing else!
Shuyins face was slightly red, but she quickly calmed down. She took her clothes and went to the bathroom.
Only two minutester, Shuyin appeared in front of Jing Rui, dressed neatly. She still subconsciously regarded Jing Rui as her Boss, so she did not waste a second.
No Boss was willing to wait for anyone.
She didnt have time to dry her hair, so she simply dried it with a towel and draped it behind her back.
Her face after the shower was smooth and delicate, with a faint blush, showing a healthy and gentle beauty.
She was like a lotus out of the water, untainted by dust, and even Jing Rui could not help but be slightly surprised.
What happened?
Shuyin felt that Jing Rui would not havee to her if it was not an urgent matter.
But she couldnt figure out what kind of emergency she was involved in. Could it be that something had happened to Jing Zhi again?
Jing Rui looked away and asked calmly,Do you have any enemies?
Although Shuyin didnt understand why he asked this, she believed in Jing Ruis ability and character. She thought carefully for a while and said,I dont think so. Very few people know me. Apart from people in the Research Institute, Ive basically nevere into contact with anyone else.
She didnt make it clear, because it was possible that she had offended someone without knowing it. However, in her understanding, she had no enemies.
Jing Rui knew that she did not think that she had any enemies, so he did not hide anything and said,Someone paid a high price to hire an assassin from an assassin organization to kill you, and that assassin was me.
Shuyin was shocked, and then she actually revealed a faint smile.So, young master Jing is here to kill me?
She smiled sweetly, and her beauty had be 120%. Under the light, her cold face suddenly became gentle.
Jing Ruis coldness had dissipated a little. Shuyins reaction was beyond his expectations.
When he first received the killing mission, he was furious. Someone wanted to kill the person he was protecting, and he was asked to do it. He had the urge to kill the employer.
But now, after seeing Shuyin, he hadpletely calmed down.
He looked at Shuyins exquisite and beautiful face and said lightly,Go back to city A. North America isnt safe. Dont stay here.
The smile on Shuyins face gradually disappeared, and she became calm, rational, and even cold again.
No need, Im fine here. Ive only just started my studies in University, and I dont want to give up this learning opportunity.
You can still study in A city. Jing Ruis patience for Shuyin was beyond his expectations.
Shuyin raised her head to look at him and said in a calm tone,I dont want to be chased away again after I go to A city. This ce is very good. At least, this is not your territory. If you want toplete the mission, just kill me.
Did she think that she would leave and return just because he told her to?
Shuyin had never been a submissive person. Otherwise, she wouldnt have had such a hard time in the Research Institute, to the point where she had to rely on Jing Rui to protect herself.
If you intend to be magnanimous and let me off this time, then I am very grateful to young master Jing. However, please leave. Also, please donte here again.
Jing Rui had always been a strong-willed man. Almost nothing could make him feel emotional. Everything was under his control. He could react quickly when he lost control asionally and prevent any idents from happening.
However, Shuyins words made him choke with anger.
If he hadnt promised Shucheng Shan, he wouldnt have bothered with Shuyin!
He wanted to protect her, but not only did she not appreciate it, but she also despised him!
Jing Ruis expression was cold, but he did not lose his mind over such a small matter.
When Shuyin left A city, he already knew that she was angry about leaving a city.
He did not expect that after so many days, she was still holding a grudge.
I didnt drive you away. It was your own choice toe to North America. I didnt approve of youing here at the time, but you insisted, and I didnt object.
Shuyin choked on her words and was so angry that she couldnt speak.
Jing Rui had not explicitly said that he would not allow her to stay in A city, but judging from his tone and attitude, he was driving her away.
Seeing Shuyins cold expression, Jing Rui knew that she did not believe his exnation.
Jing Rui believed that he did not need to exin anything to anyone, and no one was bold enough to ask him to exin anything, including his parents.
Shuyin was the first person he had broken the rules.
He had no choice. Shuyins identity was too special. He couldnt hit or scold her, and he had to ensure her safety. ording to the agreement with Shu Chengshan, he had to let Shuyin live a luxurious life.
Shu Chengshan loved money as much as his life. He had saved a staggering amount of wealth by killing people all his life, and he left all of it to his daughter.
But he was a sly old fox. Not only did he leave arge inheritance for his daughter, but he also asked Jing Rui to give her arge amount of living expenses every month to ensure that she could live like a princess, without any worries and do whatever she wanted.
The inheritance of Shucheng mountain was not in Jing Ruis hands at the moment, but entrusted to an international wealthpany. As long as Shuyin turned 20 years old, thepany would transfer all the inheritance to her.
And all of Shuyins living expenses before she turned 20 would be covered by Jing Rui.
However, even if Jing Rui wanted to give Shuyin money or a vi, she had to ept it first.
She was very defensive. She didnt even take a look at any unexpected valuables. She was theplete opposite of her father in this regard!
Jing Rui hoped that Shuyin was a greedy person, so that it would be easier to carry out the agreement with Shucheng mountain.
The room fell into silence for a moment. The two of them had their own thoughts, but their faces did not show any expression. They both appeared calm andposed.
After a while, Jing Rui broke the silence and said in a cold tone,Pack up your things immediately and leave this ce. If I dont kill you, the assassin organization will send more assassins to carry out the mission. If you dont want to die, then leave quickly.
Shuyin looked at him quietly and asked the question that had been bothering her for a long time,Alright then. Tell me, why are you protecting me?
Chapter 986
Chapter 986: The employer behind
Trantor: 549690339
Who told you that? Jing Rui frowned.
Your people are following me 24 hours a day, so its inevitable that Ill give myself away. Im not stupid, how could I not know that Im being followed?
When Shuyin first discovered that someone was following her, she couldnt figure it out no matter how much she thought about it. She was also afraid.
However, she had only probed once and knew that these people who were following her were here to protect her.
She could not find anyone else on earth who could protect her except for Jing Rui.
She was no longer his subordinate, and she no longer worked for him. A rational and cold person like him would never waste manpower to protect her for no reason.
She felt a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart after giving money and people.
There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world!
Shuyin instinctively felt that Jing Rui was hiding a huge secret!
Why are you protecting me? she asked, frowning.
Since she had found out that he was protecting her, Jing Rui let out a sigh of relief.You dont need to know. You just need to know that you will die if you continue to stay here.
When Shuyin was in the Research Institute, she had always yearned for a strong protective umbre that could protect her and prevent those lunatics from using her for experiments.
She felt safe and happy after she was protected by Jing Rui.
No one bullied her anymore, and those who coveted her beauty became respectful to her. She also had the top schr in her field to guide her, and her life was full and calm.
However, that happiness had long since disappeared.
She had been protected in the past because she had created value, and she deserved it.
However, this was not the case now. This kind of reaping without sowing would not make her feel happy. It would only make her panic.
Her attitude was tougher than ever.My life is my own, it has nothing to do with you! I dont want you to protect me no matter what! Get out!
Jing Rui did not want to use force on her, in case she would resist even more. But seeing her so unmoved, Jing Rui had a headache.
There was no need to reason with women!
He took two steps forward and stuck close to Shuyins side. He raised his hand and gave her a karate chop.
Shuyin didnt have time to react before she closed her eyes and fell down slowly.
Jing Rui grabbed her and jumped out of the window with the help of the safety rope.
He didnt like to be touched by others, but he and Shuyin were no longer just a matter of touch. Shuyin had basically applied medicine to his entire body. Skin contact, body contact, too much, so much that he no longer rejected her.
Why was it that she was so thick-skinned back then and couldnt even chase him away? now, he had to be chased out even when he came to see her.
Could this be the Wheel of Fortune?
If he had known that he would have to resort to force, Jing Rui would have knocked Shuyin out and carried her away without saying a word!
He didnt expect this girl to be so stubborn. It was fine if she refused to ept his money, but now she was even willing to give up her life and not listen to his arrangements.
Shuyins long hair was wet. The north wind was howling in the winter night, and the cold prated deep into her bones. She was only wearing a thin shirt, so she was soon drenched from the cold.
Jing Rui frowned and hesitated for a second. He took off his coat and wrapped her in it, then carried her to his car.
Jing Rui stopped at once when he heard the sound of the wind behind him.
He turned around with Shuyin in his arms and saw a slender and graceful woman standing there silently.
Zishan looked at Shuyin, who was in Jing Ruis arms, and said in a clear voice,Lightning, its not worth it to go against the organizations orders for a woman, is it?
It is you, Jing Rui looked at her coldly.
He had already guessed that the person who wanted to kill Shuyin was Zishan! Shuyin had never offended anyone. Other than the conflict she had with Zishan over Jing Zhi, she had never made any enemies.
Zishanughed and pped her hands.Thats right. Youre so smart. You guessed it right!
Jing Rui looked at her smiling face and suddenly thought of Shuyins smile.
They were both smiling, and they were both extremely beautiful girls. However, Shuyins smile seemed to be able to purify ones heart and make one feel soft. Although Zishans smile was beautiful, it was difficult to have a good impression of her.
Shuyins growing environment was not much better than Zishan s.
Zishan was an assassin and had received a lot of harsh and cruel training. It was very normal for his personality to be so cruel and cold.
However, even though Shuyin had been in the Research Institute for so long and was surrounded by paranoia and perverts, she still maintained her inner innocence.
The Research Institutes psychological pressure on people was actually heavier than that of the killer organization. The killers could still vent, but the people in the Research Institute had no ce to vent. After a long time, they would have mental and psychological problems.
Jing Zhi, for example, had a strong tendency for violence and was prone to extreme things. He didnt have the right view of right and wrong, because the Research Institute had never taught him what was right and what was wrong.
The fact that Shuyin was able to maintain her sense of self in such an environment showed how strong her willpower was.
Jing Rui tightened his arms around Shuyin and pulled her closer to him.
Shuyin, who was being carried by Jing Rui, felt his unintentional movements, and her eyshes fluttered.
In fact, she had only been dizzy for a short while. She had woken up when Jing Rui jumped down from the 11th floor.
However, she did not open her eyes and continued to pretend to be unconscious.
Because she still couldnt escape, this wasnt the best time to escape.
When she heard the conversation between Jing Rui and a woman, Shu Yin knew who was trying to kill her.
She could tell that the one who spoke was the assassin Zishan who had tried to kill her not long ago.
This was truly an undeserved cmity!
Just because she refused to tell him the whereabouts of Kazuki, she was still targeted by this killer when she came to North America!
Jing Rui was so focused on Zishan that he did not notice that Shuyin had already woken up. He had not been gentle with his attack, so he did not expect Shuyin to wake up so early.
He also felt that Shuyin had suffered an undeserved disaster and felt a slight apology to her in his heart.
He looked at Zishans smiling face, and his heart turned cold.You know that shes my woman, but you still want to touch her. It seems that you didnt suffer enoughst time.
Zishan was smiling, but her eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred. Why did Jing Rui only treat Shuyin differently?
Didnt he always hate it when others touched him?
Whats the matter with him holding a woman in his arms now!
Chapter 987
Chapter 987: Identity exposed
Trantor: 549690339
That woman was still wearing his clothes!
Zishan clenched her teeth so hard that they were about to shatter!
I thought you were a God with no desires. I didnt expect that you, a mere mortal, would also be moved by a beauty.
The smile on Zishans face gradually disappeared, reced by a mocking look. No one knew if she was mocking Jing Rui or herself.
Are you so sure that shes the most beautiful one? Im just wearing a mask, you havent seen my real face yet. Youll definitely regret making a decision so quickly!
Jing Rui did not react to Zishans words, but Shuyin! Who was in Jing Ruis arms, was shocked!
The female killer sounded so jealous because she had taken a fancy to Jing Rui.
Was he crazy? did she see Jing Ruis heart? His heart was made of stone, just as cold as his appearance. How could such a person fall for a woman?
Shuyin really wanted to get out of Jing Ruis arms to prove that she had nothing to do with him. If the female killer liked him, she could just throw herself at him!
However, she could not move at the moment. She knew Jing Rui too well. It was better for her to pretend that she did not know anything about this.
Jing Rui stood there, unaware of Shuyins unspoken criticism, and did not take Zishans words seriously.
Both of them were assassins, and they were from different camps. They were originally opponents and could not even be considered friends. When Zishan said this, he did not feel a single ripple in his heart.
As for what his rtionship with Shuyin was, it had nothing to do with Zishan, an outsider. Only his parents had the right to ask.
Jing Rui did not have the patience to waste time on a proud peacock like Zishan.
He turned around and left with Shuyin in his arms.
Stop right there!
Zishan was so angry that her heart ached. Her self-esteem had been hurt by Jing Ruis disregard.
Her expression was slightly ferocious as she said in a sharp voice,Today, you must kill this woman andplete the mission. Otherwise, I will report you to the organization and report you for favoritism! Whats waiting for you will be the most severe punishment from the organization. If you want to live, kill her!
Jing Rui stopped in his tracks and said coldly without turning his head,I dont want to live. You can go and report me. If you report me now, its not toote to arrest me.
Zishan choked and was so angry she almost vomited blood!
Shuyin closed her eyes and pretended to faint, but her heart was a littleplicated.
She had been in the Research Institute for a long time and knew the killer organization very well. She knew that it was a serious crime to let the target go. Jing Rui would face the most brutal punishment and might even lose his life.
She didnt know how he would avoid punishment, but no matter what, he would still be greatly affected. For example, he was being threatened by this female killer.
Why was he protecting her?
The suspicion in Shuyins heart was getting bigger and bigger, so big that she couldnt help but want to find out the truth!
Zishan looked at Jing Ruis tall back as he walked away with another woman in his arms. She finally threw out herst card.Lightning, youve been looking for someone these days, right?
Jing Rui finally stopped and turned around.So this matter is also rted to you!
His tone was unbelievably calm, but even with her eyes closed, Shu Yin could feel the anger beneath his calm exterior.
Zishan could also feel his anger, but she felt very carefree!
Jing Rui finally reacted. This was good!
Maybe I should call you ... Jing Rui?
Zishan proudly raised her exquisite and beautiful chin,Ive already investigated you. So, youre from A city! Why would the heir of the Jing family, a family with hundreds of billions of Yuan in wealth, be an assassin? Im afraid he has some ulterior motive?
Jing Ruis eyes turned cold. He had been hiding his identity well, but Zishan had found out about it.
Since his identity had been exposed, there was no need for him to hide it. Wheres Liao Wei?
His identity information must have been leaked from Liao Wei!
Liao Wei had disappeared since he came to North America. Jing Rui had been looking for him for days, but he had no idea that Liao Wei had been taken back to the secret base of the killer organization by Zishan.
Oh, you mean your substitute?
Zishan had finally gained the upper hand. She had something that could move Jing Rui. A smile appeared on her pretty face again.
Dont worry, hes doing well now. Its not easy to find someone who looks so much like you. I cant bear to kill him.
What do you want?
Hehe, its really easy to talk to smart people. I like it when youre so straightforward! A life for a life. You give me this woman and Ill give you the substitute. I can also help you keep your identity a secret. What do you think? this is a good deal, right?
Shu Yin was already about to die of anger from Zishans words!
Why did this person insist on biting her and not letting go? They had nothing against each other, but Zishan had insisted on her death. Even if she died, Jing Rui would not want Zishan.
Shuyin wasnt sure about other things, but after being in contact with Jing Rui for so long, she knew Jing Ruis temper very well. He hated being threatened and the feeling of losing control.
Jing Rui had been threatened by Zishan and he was getting impatient.
Not only did she want to kill Shuyin, but she also tried every possible way to find out his identity and secretly kidnapped Liao Wei. These three things had crossed his bottom line.
For the first time, Jing Rui wanted to kill Zishan.
This kind of woman could not be left alive, or there would be endless trouble.
But Zishan did not know that Jing Ruis good impression of her, which was that she was willing to work hard and improve, hadpletely disappeared. She was still excited that she had found Jing Ruis weakness.Your substitute looks so much like you. He can help me do a lot of things with his face. I can also use him to empty the huge wealth that has been umted by the Jing family for generations. You cant be willing to give up the safety of family Jing for a woman, can you?
Jing Rui looked at her and said nothing.
There was no need for him to talk to a dead person.
He carried Shuyin to his car and ced her in the back seat. He then sat in the drivers seat and drove away.
Zishan stood there, dumbfounded!
She had threatened Jing Rui with so many things, but why did he not react at all?
How dare he leave just like that!
Was that woman really that important to him?
ording to her investigation, the woman named Shuyin used to work at the Virus Research Institute, and had only known Jing Rui for a few months. They did not have a deep rtionship.
Could it be that her investigation was wrong?
Shuyin had another identity?

Jing Rui drove away from the campus and headed straight to the airport.
Before Zishan was killed, Shuyin couldnt stay here.
It was too easy for an assassin to kill someone. Shuyin was no match for Zishan, and even if he sent someone to protect her, it was still not safe.
When they arrived at the airport, Jing Rui did not get out of the car. Instead, he turned to Shuyin, who was pretending to be unconscious, and said,You dont have to pretend anymore. Get out of the car. Theres someone inside to pick you up and bring you back to A city.
Shu Yins eyes shot open.You know Im pretending?!
He knew but didnt say it, causing her to pretend all the way!
She was still looking for a suitable opportunity to escape!
Of course, Jing Rui knew that she was pretending. He had already noticed it when she was confronting Zishan, because she was not good at acting.
Get out of the car. Its not safe here. Someone wants your life. You must know the cause and effect by now. A city is the safest ce.
Shuyin sat up slowly. She was still wearing Jing Ruis clothes. The clothes gave her a faint warmth, but it did not affect her rationality and decisiveness.
I wont go to A city again.
After she said this, she opened the car door and got out to hail a taxi.
Jing Rui immediately caught up with her and pushed her back into the car. Where are you going?
His voice was angry and cold. He pressed Shuyin down on the seat and pressed her legs against hers, not letting her run out.
Shuyins chest was about to break from his pressing, and her legs were about to break. She was in so much pain that her face turned pale.
Let go!
Sure, you go back to A city!
Thats your home, not mine. Im not going! Im not your subordinate now, so you have no right to order me to do anything! Ill have to trouble you to settle the mess between you and that female assassin. Dont drag me into it again!
Ill take care of this, but before that, you have to go back!
You were the one who made me follow Peter to city A and then chased me away. Now, youre asking me to go back and will even chase me away in the future, so why should I go?
Jing Rui suddenly had a headache!
Why is this woman still pestering me about this?!
His tone softened,you refuse to go back because of this? Are you afraid that Ill chase you away again?
Shuyin neither admitted nor denied it.
This was one of the reasons, but not the only one.
She was stubborn and strong. After being driven out of A city by Jing Rui, she realized that she was just a floating duckweed without roots. She had no family, no family, and no friends. She had no choice but to give in when she was faced with someone who was too powerful.
No one would support her, and no one would protect her.
Jing Rui had protected her for so long that she was greedy. She was willing to be his subordinate for the rest of her life.
However, their rtionship was only a partnership. When she lost her value, he immediately abandoned her and even drove her out of A city.
She suddenly woke up from her greed!
It turned out that no one would protect her forever except for herself!
So, she wanted to run away from Jing Rui. She wanted to stay away from people like Jing Rui. Only then could she control her own life.
She looked at Jing Rui with her clear and beautiful eyes and said slowly,Please disappear from my life, can you?
Jing Rui was slightly startled and asked,Why?
This was the first time he had met someone who had made him disappear!
It was also the first time he had met someone who didnt need his protection at all!
Ever since he was young, he was used to being someone elses protective umbre. As long as it was someone who belonged to him, he would take responsibility.
ording to the agreement, Shu Chengshan had sessfully restored Jing Zhis memory. In order to prevent him from bing enemies with Shuyin, he chose tomit suicide and didnt give Jing Zhi a chance to do anything.
It was a must and a must for him to protect Shuyin.
He had already prepared himself to protect her for the rest of his life, but she had actually rejected him!
Wasnt it good for him to protect and take care of her?
I can only listen to your arrangements. If you want me to get lost, I have to get lost. If you want me to get lost, I have to get lost. You fought with a female killer and I got caught in the crossfire, why?! Jing Rui, I dont owe you anything! You protected me for two years, and I protected Jing Zhi and provided you with a lot of information. Were even now!
Jing Rui could not remember how long it had been since someone had dared to speak to him in such a rude tone.
However, he could not even refute a single word!
Shuyin was right. She didnt owe him anything. On the contrary, he owed her.
She was so aggressive now. If she knew how Shucheng Shan died, she would probably rush up and bite him!
Youre pressing on my chest. It hurts. How much longer do you want to press?
Jing Rui looked down and saw that his hand was indeed on Shuyins chest.
No wonder he felt that her body was too soft. He had pressed the wrong ce!
His palm suddenly felt a little hot. He retracted his hand and hugged Shuyin. Then he sat beside her and looked into her eyes.
Ive never thought of arranging your life, or I wouldnt have let youe to North America. I originally arranged a safer country for you, but you didnt like it, so I didnt even mention it. As for leaving A city, I apologize to you. I didnt know you liked it there so much.
There was a rare gentleness and sincerity in his tone. He no longer had the aura and fierceness of someone who was in control of everything. He no longer had a cold and oppressive feeling. This made Shu Yins heart soften.
However, her heart softening didnt mean that she had changed her stance. She turned her head and looked out the window, denying it with a nk expression.I dont like city A. Youre overthinking it. I wont go back, North America is very suitable for me. Please get rid of your trouble and let me live a few days in peace.
But Jing Rui knew that Shuyin was just saying it out of anger.
She liked city A.
When she was in A city, she always had a faint smile on her face. She was like a flower that had been nourished by the rain and was waiting to bloom.
When she came to North America, she became that cold girl again. She quickly withered and then sealed herself up again, unwilling to reveal any true emotions.
A young girls heart was fragile and sensitive, independent and strong. She wrapped herself in a thick shell, and even if she were to die, she was unwilling to show a little weakness.
Be good and go back to A city.
Jing Ruis tough and cold heart softened, and his tone became gentle.
You can stay there for as long as you want. You can also study there if you want. There are internationally renowned professors there. You can learn what you like. I wont force you in the future, and I wont interfere with your life.
Chapter 989
Chapter 989: Falling sick
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin was almost bewitched by his gentle tone and warm words.
She did like city A. The people there were lively and full of life, unlike the cold North America. Moreover, everyone had the same ck hair and ck eyes, which made her feel a sense of belonging.
Moreover, the few people she knew were all in city A.
However, Shuyin could already roam the world alone now. She didnt need to go back.
No one could guarantee that Jing Rui would not drive her away one day for other reasons.
Moreover, his unreasonable protection made her feel inexplicably uneasy. She didnt want this kind of protection.
I dont believe you.
Shuyins expression also softened, but the words she said didnt make people feel gentle at all.
I dont believe in anyone, I only trust myself. You have the absolute power to control my life. I cant resist you, but I can always avoid you, right?
After talking for so long, Shuyin still wanted to leave!
Jing Ruis face darkened.Do you believe that I will knock you out and have you taken back to A city? he said. Ill imprison you there from now on!
I believe, of course I believe! However, unless you dont let me wake up, Ill kill myself! Once youre dead, youll be able to rx. You wont need to protect me anymore!
Jing Rui was stunned. Why did Shuyin choose tomit suicide like her father?
They were indeed father and daughter!
Shuyin opened the car door and walked out. This time, she didnt even put on Jing Ruis coat. She threw it into the car and left without looking back.
Jing Ruis coaxing and threatening failed, and he became cold.
This was the first time he had encountered such a difficult person to deal with. He was simply impervious to anything and didnt fear death.
But he really couldnt let Shuyin die.
Zishan might not leave now, and if Shuyin returned to the dormitory now, she would definitely be in danger.
Jing Rui followed her in the car.
When he saw that Shuyin didnt return to the dormitory, but was temporarily staying in a high-end hotel, he was slightly relieved.
Fortunately, she was not stupid and did not return to school immediately. Staying in such a high-end hotel would make it easier for his men to protect her.
Jing Rui gathered his men to the hotel and drove back to the base.
Now that he could control half of the assassin organization, the other half was still in Andrews hands. He had to speed up the progress. Afterpletely controlling the assassin organization, Zishan would not be a threat at all.
However, before that, he had to kidnap Liao Wei from Zishan!
He had already found out a few days ago that Liao Wei was the one behind the fire and explosion. He had made a connection with the people at the Virus Research Institute and used his identity to promise them that he would send Jing Zhi to the Institute for experiments.
Over the years, Liao Wei had gained a lot of power in secret. With the title of the heir of family Jing, the people who came to him were like a river crossing. He could get the support and support of many people without any effort.
However, Zishan did note back when Jing Rui returned to the base. She was nowhere to be found, as if she was deliberately hiding her whereabouts so that Jing Rui would not be able to find her.
If she could not find Zishan, it would be difficult to find Liao Wei, who she had hidden.
Jing Rui did not panic. Instead, he contacted Lu and started to force Andrew to abdicate.
Lu was the worlds top killer. She had a superior strength that all killers looked up to. It was easier for her to win and more convincing for her to lead people to fight for control.
Every change of power in an assassin organization was bloody, but it had never been as bloody as this time. Many opponents were suppressed or even killed directly.
As the highest leader, Jing Rui did not have to kill anyone himself. All he had to do was tomand them remotely.
He had originally wanted to slowly nibble away at the entire force, but now it seemed that the speed was too slow. It was better to directly adopt violent means. Although this way, he would lose some people, it would be effective quickly.
The sky gradually brightened, and the two sides were in a deadlock, maintaining a delicate bnce. No one could do anything to the other.
Andrew was deeply rooted in the assassin organization. If they wanted to uproot him, they had to kill all the people who supported him, but that was unrealistic.
Andrew finally asked for a negotiation. Lu asked for Jing Ruis opinion and then sat down to negotiate with Andrew.
The so-called negotiation was just a cover. Both sides were re-umting strength and preparing for the big explosionter.
Jing Rui waited patiently at the base, but what he got was not news of Lus victory, Zishan or Liao Wei s, but news of Shuyins illness.
He immediately drove to the hotel Shuyin was staying at.
The person in charge of protecting Shuyin wasnt a personal bodyguard, but he noticed that Shuyin hadnte out for more than ten hours after she entered the room. She hadnt eaten either, so he suspected that something was wrong. He asked the hotel staff to check on her, only to find out that Shuyin had a high fever and was unconscious.
When Jing Rui arrived, he saw Shuyins flushed face and immediately called his private doctor in North America.
The doctor checked Shuyins temperature and did a simple blood test. Then, he gave Shuyin an injection to reduce her fever and put her on an IV drip. After two hours, her condition had stabilized.
In the hotel room, after the doctor left, only Shuyin was left lying on the White bed.
Jing Rui sat beside her and watched her face turn from red to pale. After a moment of hesitation, he put his hand on her forehead.
After the injection, her fever was no longer as serious.
He finally understood why Shuyin had subconsciously raised her hand to touch his forehead when she took care of him thest time.
This was purely an unconscious action. When they heard that someone had a fever, most people would use their hands to test it, especially for people who cared about them.
Jing Rui knew that Shuyin must have caught a coldst night.
She had just taken a shower yesterday and was taken out by him directly. Her hair was still dripping with water, and the clothes she was wearing were very thin. The temperature at night was-10 degrees Celsius, so it was no wonder that she had caught a cold.
It was his fault for not being attentive enough, otherwise she would not have to suffer like this.
In her sleep, she didnt have the cold feeling she hadst night. Her eyes were soft, and her skin was so pale that it was almost transparent. However, her slightly haggardness didnt diminish her appearance. Instead, she had a different kind of beauty.
Jing Rui had never looked at Shuyin so closely before. He found that her facial features were very delicate. She had a beautiful oval face, a straight and delicate nose, slightly pouted red lips, and even a beautiful chin.
Chapter 990
Chapter 990: Just like my father
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui suddenly thought of what Zishan had said yesterday. She had said that she was more beautiful than Shuyin, but Jing Rui felt that Shuyins looks were already one of the best. Zishans looks could not be better than hers, at most on par.
She was clearly a weak youngdy, yet she still dared to go against him and refused topromise.
Just this alone would increase her personal charm.
If it wasnt for his men keeping an eye on her, she would have stayed in the hotel alone and died of illness without anyone knowing.
Jing Zhi had been away for seven years, but at least his family missed him and Lu and he protected him in secret. What about Shuyin?
She trembled with fear and tried her best to protect herself.
After Shu Chengshan sent his daughter to the Research Institute, he couldnt reach in anymore.
Although Shu Chengshan was an assassin and very rich, he didnt have enough connections and a strong background. Therefore, he had the support of the Virus Research Institute, which was supported by more than a dozen countries, and he was no longer able topete with them.
The one thing he regretted the most in his life was sending his daughter to the Research Institute.
He hoped that Shuyin would never find out about this in her life. It was best if she didnt know how Shu Chengshan died.
Shuyin saw Jing Rui sitting in front of her as soon as she opened her eyes. She thought she was seeing things or dreaming, so she closed her eyes and opened them again.
Jing Rui was still sitting in front of her.
She frowned and looked at Jing Rui from head to toe, then at the surroundings. She was sure that he was in the hotel room she was staying in. She asked unhappily,What are you doing here? Its not good to barge into a girls room, right?
Fortunately, she didnt have the habit of sleeping naked. Otherwise, she would have suffered a great loss!
Jing Rui had expected that she would not appreciate it. He smiled helplessly.If I hadnt barged in, you might have already gone to theherworld.
He pointed at the needle in Shuyins hand.Youve caught a cold.
Only then did Shuyin notice that she was still on an IV drip.
Her expression changed slightly, and she pulled out the needle without hesitation.I dont want the injection!
Jing Rui did not expect her to react this way, because Shuyin looked like a very rational person, unlike a stubborn girl who did not like injections.
Shuyin wasnt being willful. She was just acting on a conditioned reflex.
Her life in the Research Institute had made her strongly resistant to all kinds of injections, because each injection was a virus, a test subject.
Seeing her reaction, Jing Rui quickly realized the reason.
He pressed down on Shuyins hand, picked up the pillow, and put it back in ce for her.
Shuyin wanted to struggle, but Jing Rui said coldly,Dont move! This is to treat your illness, not to take your life! Theres no virus in it, its an antibiotic!
Shuyin resisted the urge to pull out the needle and said with a pale face,I dont need antibiotics. I have a virus in my body, and theyve strengthened my immunity. I dont need any injections!
Then how did you fall unconscious?
I ...
Shu Yin was at a loss for words. She lowered her head and bit her lip, not saying a word.
She hadnt caught a cold for a long time. First, in order to cultivate viruses and bacteria in the Research Institute, the Research Institute was maintained at a constant temperature, which killed many harmful viruses, so she never caught a cold at all. Second, the virus in her body did enhance her resistance. Even if she asionally caught a cold, she could quickly get over it without taking medicine.
She didnt expect her illness to be so serious this time.
In fact, she had already felt ufortable when she went back to the hotel to sleep, but she didnt take it to heart. She thought that this time would be the same as before and that she would be better soon. Who knew that she would have a fever and faint again?
After a long while, she said in a low voice,Thank you!
Jing Rui finally knew how to thank him. He was about to tell her not to do it again when Shuyin suddenly looked up and stared at him with wide eyes.
Wait, why should I thank you? You were the one who caused me to catch a cold and have a fever. If you didnt knock me out in the middle of the night and take me to the airport, I wouldnt have fallen ill!
Jing Rui wanted tough.
Her reaction was quite fast!
Also, can you let go of my hand? Its very painful to keep pressing like this!
These words and this scene felt familiar.
Jing Rui was still holding her hand and refused to let go.Then youre not allowed to pull out the needle, you have to take the medicine first!
I won t! Shuyin nodded immediately.
Jing Rui was relieved.
But as soon as he let go, Shuyin quickly pulled out the needle. Jing Rui was so angry that he almost bit his tongue!
Why didnt he realize before that Shuyin was such a disobedient person!
At that time, she would do whatever she was told to do and be as obedient as a kitten. How good would that be!
Shuyin saw Jing Ruis face turn dark and quicklyy down under the nket.Im going to take off my clothes and sleep, you should go!
Jing Rui gritted his teeth and said,strip now if you can! Im not leaving tonight!
Eh, angry?
Shu Yin didnt dare to continue angering him. She quickly changed to a pitiful look and begged,Im hungry.
Arent you going to take off your clothes and sleep? Go to sleep, Ill be here watching. Its not good to eat before bed, so its fine to be hungry. You wont die from hunger.
It sounded like he was concerned about her, but Shuyin was not stupid. She could tell from Jing Ruis expression that he was doing it on purpose.
Hmph!
Shuyin snorted coldly and wrapped herself in the nket. She closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.
She was still running a fever and didnt have much of an appetite. She was just showing weakness when she said she was hungry.
Jing Rui had been waiting for her to continue begging for mercy, but Shuyin did not move after a long time. He took a closer look and found that she had really fallen asleep again.
Jing Rui suddenly felt suffocated, unable to breathe.
She was not worried about him!
Wasnt she afraid that he would do something else while she was asleep?
Or did Shuyin not even treat him as a man?
Shuyin was still in a daze. She kept feeling like someone was calling her, but her eyelids were so heavy that she couldnt open them no matter how hard she tried.
In a daze, someone ced a hand on her forehead and sighed in her ear.He refused to get an IV, and his fever rose again ...
This voice was deep and pleasing to the ear. It went straight into ones heart and intoxicated one.
Shuyin, wake up and eat something before you sleep! Shuyin!
Shuyin opened her eyes with difficulty. She was a little muddled from the fever. When she saw Jing Ruis ordinary face, she forgot who he was for a moment.
She suddenly held Jing Ruis hand on her forehead and murmured,Your voice is so nice, its like my dads ...
Chapter 991
Chapter 991: Ill listen to you
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was already stunned when she held his hand! And he froze when he heard her words!
Shuyin ... Actually remembered her father!
Didnt Peter say that Shuyin had lost her memories as well?
Didnt every child who was sent to the Research Institute have their memories erased?
Jing Rui took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
Shuyin might only have some fragments of her memory. Just like Jing Zhi, before he regained his memory, he used a special way to remember his brother. Shuyin might also have a way to remember some information from the past.
Jing Rui calmed down quickly. It didnt matter if Shuyin remembered the past, or even if she knew about Shucheng mountains death. He thought that he wouldnt be soft-hearted when the day came.
He wanted to pull his hand out of Shuyins arms, but Shuyin hugged him even tighter.
Dont go ... Dad doesnt want me anymore. Dont go ...
Jing Rui lowered his head and looked at the confused girl in silence. Perhaps she would only show her weakness when she was so sick.
She remembered that her father had abandoned her, which was why she had always been independent and strong?
He did not tell Jing Rui in detail how Shu Chengshan had sent his daughter to the Virus Research Institute. Jing Rui only knew that Shu Chengshan had entrusted Shuyin to a good friend in the Research Institute, so that his daughter would not have to run away with him.
Jing Rui sighed in his heart. He was undoubtedly happy. At least his parents would not leave him to someone else and he had aplete and happy family.
He allowed Shuyin to hold his left hand, and raised his right hand to touch her burning forehead. He called the private doctor again and asked him to do it again.
Perhaps it was because he had been in contact with Shuyin for too long, but Jing Rui realized that he did not feel repulsed even when Shuyin hugged him.
When he was young, his clothes had been taken off by a dirty beggar, so he didnt like to be touched by anyone. He felt ufortable even when his clothes were touched. Although he wasnt as obsessed with cleanliness as his father, Jing Yichen, he still kept a distance from others.
Other than his parents, the only people he didnt reject were Jing Zhi and Jing Xi, his blood-rted brother and sister.
Shuyin was also a special case.
Jing Ruis private doctor, Lemon, had been taking care of him for seven years. He knew Jing Ruis character very well.
Lemon was surprised to be called to the hotel twice today, and both times to treat a girl.
He knew that Jing Rui was a cold and rational man. He was not heartless, but he was not apassionate man, and he was not easily charmed by women.
So when Lemon first came, he did not ask anything, even though he was surprised. He thought that the girl was only valuable to Jing Rui.
But when he came the second time and saw Jing Rui letting the girl hold his arm, he could not hide the shock on his face.
Lemon was Jing Ruis doctor, so he knew how much Jing Rui hated to be touched by others. He would even take care of his own injuries. He would not look for him unless it was necessary.
Now that Jing Rui was so intimate with a beautiful girl, Lemon was definitely thinking about something else.
Jing Rui knew what Lemon was thinking, but he did not exin.
Because even he knew that if he didnt want Shuyin to hold him, he had a thousand ways to get his arm out.
Fortunately, Lemon wasnt a gossiper. He never asked questions he shouldnt ask and only did what he should do.
He gave Shuyin an injection to reduce her fever and put her on a drip again. He left a few boxes of medicine and left quietly, just like when he came.
Only Jing Rui and Shuyin were left in the room. Jing Rui let out a sigh of relief when he saw that she had calmed down.
He had thought that she was very obedient, but it turned out that she was not someone who could let him be free of worries.
However, he was somehow rxed. He was not angry even when he received the news that Lu was not doing well.
Shuyin slept soundly until dawn. When she opened her eyes, Jing Rui was still by her side. What made her feel a little helpless was that she seemed to have hugged Jing Ruis arm and slept the whole night.
The strangest thing was that Jing Rui let her hold him just like that.
He didnt sleep?
Isnt your arm numb?
Could it be ... That he had a prosthetic?
Or did the sun rise from the West today?
Shuyin was staring nkly at the strong arm she was hugging when a faint voice came from above her head.You like to sleep with your arms crossed? Gnawing on it like a pigs trotter?
Shuyin jumped in shock and threw the arm away in a hurry. She said anxiously,I didn t!
Jing Zhi retracted his numb arm and rolled up his sleeve with his other hand. He handed it to Shuyin.See for yourself.
Shuyin looked closely. Oh my God! There were indeed a few rows of clear teeth marks on it!
This, this, this ... Was she really the one who did it?
It was true that she liked to hug things to sleep, but she had never had the habit of eating pig trotters in her dreams!
Shu Yin looked embarrassed, and her ears turned slightly red.That ... Im sorry, Im a little confused from the fever. I didnt mean to bite you! Why dont you ... Bite back!
She rolled up her sleeves and showed Jing Rui her arm.Go ahead, I wont cry out in pain.
Jing Rui did not know whether tough or cry. He did not know that she could be so childish.
However, why did that fair and delicate arm, which was as smooth and soft as the most beautiful suet Jade, look so tempting?
Jing Rui closed his eyes and put her down by the arm.Get up and eat something. Take your medicer. If you fall sick again, I wont care.
His voice was slightly hoarse, and his eyes were bloodshot and blue. Shu Yin couldnt help but ask him softly,Did you guard me the entire night?
Jing Rui did stay by her side the whole night, because he was worried that she would have a high fever, and he had to keep an eye on her drip, and deal with the killer organization.
He did not sleep the entire night.
However, he didnt say anything and turned to the bathroom to wash up.
Shu Yiny on the bed and watched his tall back disappear from her sight.
From the moment she could remember, no one had ever treated her so well.
She had thought that no one would ever care about her life or death.
She had thought that she could only bear the burden of her illness.
Shuyin got off the bed barefooted and walked out of the room to the bathroom with a heavy head.
Go back and lie down! Jing Rui frowned when he saw her.
Shuyin raised her head and looked at him quietly. She said gently,Ill listen to you and go back to A city.
Chapter 992
Chapter 992: Im better looking than your bread?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was startled. Why did her attitude change so much after she woke up?
Didnt he refuse to go back previously?
You can be persuaded but not forced?
He was used to being tough and would not treat girls gently.
He wiped the water off his hands with a towel and said indifferently,Alright, Ill make the arrangements. When youre better, Ill send you back.
Shuyin was so sick that she couldnt leave immediately. It would be troublesome if something happened on the ne.
But, after you send me back, you cant drive me away.
I didnt drive you away.
Then why do you want me to go to another ce?
I thought you would want to go somewhere else.
Shuyin finally revealed a faint smile.I dont want to go anywhere!
Jing Rui had not seen such a pure smile on her face for a long time. He suddenly felt rxed.Alright, then we wont go anywhere.
Shuyin was very happy. She turned around and walked away with light steps.
The breakfast provided by the hotel was very sumptuous. Jing Rui and Shuyin were not picky people, and they had been hungry all night, so they had a lot of food.
Especially Shuyin. She loved French sandwich bread and ate a few of them.
Jing Rui couldnt stand it anymore. When she reached out to take it again, he covered the bread with his hand.
Their hands touched, and Shuyin immediately pulled her hand back. She looked at him, slightly puzzled.Whats wrong?
Youve already eaten six. You cant eat anymore.
Shuyin was rather surprised. She couldnt even remember how many she had eaten!
Its okay. I can finish one loaf of bread in two bites. Ive only eaten six. Im not full yet!
Youve also had a ss of milk, a fried egg, a shrimp ball, a fruit sd, and a bacon. Youre still weak, so you cant eat anymore.
Shuyins eyes widened.Youve been watching me eat just now? she asked.
Otherwise, how could he be so clear about what she had eaten?
Theres no need to stare at it, just one look and youll know.
Jing Rui did not notice anything wrong. He looked calm and did not slow down his eating.
He ate so much and so deliciously, but he didnt let her eat anymore. Shu Yin said pitifully,Cant I eat another one? How can you abuse a patient like this? I didnt take care of you this way when you were injured thest time.
Jing Rui finally raised his head and looked at her.
This girl actually dared to mention his injury!
She wrapped him up like a mummy, deliberately didnt let him move, and cut his clothes. Looking at his whole body, he didnt get angry, which was already giving face to Shu Chengshan, and now he still had the face to say take care?
Yes, its because youve taken good care of me that Im returning the favor and taking care of you.
He emphasized the word take care, and Shuyin immediately understood the meaning behind his words.
She couldnt help but feel a little guilty. Karma had actuallye so quickly!
There were still some of her favorite pineapple buns on the table that she hadnt eaten yet. She really couldnt ept this!
Dont eat with Jing Rui anymore! Too much control!
But it was good to watch Jing Rui eat even if she could not.
Shuyin stared at Jing Rui as he ate.
However, as she looked at it, she was fascinated.
He was wearing a mask and looked very ordinary. However, when he sat there, his ordinary appearance and unremarkable clothes could not hide the brilliance on his body at all!
His back was straight, and the outline of his side profile was very good. The way he ate was elegant and Noble, like a young master who lived in luxury, not like a killer who was running around all year round.
His hand that was holding the spoon was so beautiful!
Her fingers were long and slender, with distinct joints. They looked powerful but beautiful, like an exquisitely carved piece of art! Such hands were suitable for ying the piano, not for killing.
Jing Rui was extremely sensitive to gazes, and he was so close to Shuyin that he could not pretend that he did not know anything.
Am I better looking than your bread? he asked.
Shu yinshang was still immersed in the beauty and couldnt extricate herself. She subconsciously nodded. Its good!
She did not realize what she had said until she saw the teasing look in Jing Ruis eyes.
Her fair face instantly turned red. She got up in a panic and left in a hurry.
But after taking two steps, she felt that she had said the right thing. Besides, Jing Rui hadplimented her beauty before, so it was only right for her to praise him.
Shuyin turned around and saw Jing Rui eating again. She suddenly gathered her courage and said,Youre just good-looking!
However, she had overestimated herself. She blushed even more and her heart started to beat faster. She was no longer as calm as when Jing Rui had said she was pretty.
She turned around and left in a hurry, not noticing the smile in Jing Ruis eyes.
Where did she see that he was good-looking?
He was wearing a mask, but he could not see anything.
This was a childish side of Shuyin that she rarely showed. Most of the time, she was cold and rational, which didnt match her age.
The naivety that she showed inadvertently reflected the softness of her heart.
She was very simr to Shucheng mountain in some ways, but there were also big differences.
Shu Chengshan was ruthless and cunning, never caring about other peoples lives, while Shuyin was smart but never abused her schemes.
Fortunately, that was the case. Otherwise, Shuyin would not have lived until now.
Jing Rui shook his head slightly and continued to eat. He had a muchrger appetite than Shuyin, and his body consumed energy quickly, so he needed to replenish his energy.
After dinner, Jing Rui left the hotel and went back to the base.
As soon as he returned to the base, he received a message from his subordinate,Zishans tracking signal had disappeared.
Every killer had a chip imnted behind their ears, which could be used to locate and explode. Jing Rui had almost found Zishan by tracking the signal, but her signal had disappeared!
The person in charge of monitoring the signal from the assassin organization said that this meant that Zishan was dead.
Hes dead?
Jing Rui sneered. It was too much of a coincidence that she had died.
The passwords of all the chips were in Andrews hands. Other than death, which would cause the signal to disappear, the chips password cracking function could also cause the signal to disappear!
Jing Ruis men had already cracked the chips password, but Zishan was not his man, so he did not give him the password.
It was Andrew who had given her the password and made her disappear!
His substitute, Liao Wei, had also disappeared with Zishan.
Jing Rui knew that Zishan and Liao Weis disappearance meant that his identity had beenpletely exposed. Andrew already knew his true identity and probably also knew who had saved Jing Zhi.
The Assassins base had beenpletely sealed off by Andrew, and he was afraid that he would not be able to get out for a while.

Andrew took a helicopter to the base and negotiated with Jing Rui in person.
He still did not know that Jing Rui was the real mastermind behind the power struggle that Lu had started, but he still valued Jing Rui very much.
The heir of family Jing had been hiding in the killer organization for so many years, and this made Andrew very uneasy.
No wonder Jing Zhis death was so bizarre, and no wonder the Virus Research Institute was destroyed so quickly!
Andrew was both angry and shocked. He thought of his predecessor, Edward, who was the Supreme Leader of the assassin organization. He once said that the famous families that could stand in the world for hundreds of years had their own Foundation and abilities. Unless it was absolutely necessary, they must not be touched.
Edward was an old friend of Jing zhongxiu of family Jing. The killers organization had never epted any missions rted to family Jing.
Not only that, but the killer organization also made an exception and allowed Lu to leave the organization and follow family Jing.
Of course, the killer organization had also received a huge amount of financial support from family Jing. Both sides were mutually beneficial and kept in bnce.
After Andrew killed Edward and seized the power of the assassin organization, he immediately broke the bnce.
He was ambitious. Although he was a little afraid of the Jing family, he always felt that he was strong enough to deal with the Jing family.
As a matter of fact, after he and North had arrested Jing Zhi, family Jing had dealt a series of blows to the killer organization.
Because of this, all the rich families around the world didnt give any face to the killer organization. If you can catch a member of family Jing to be a killer today, wont you catch a member of my family tomorrow? He was too arrogant!
The funds of the killer organization had shrunk greatly. If it werent for the Research Institute providing arge amount of cash flow, they might not even have the money to train new killers.
Now that Jing Rui was the top killer among the freshmen, Andrew was very nervous.
He wanted to kill Jing Rui, but he did not dare to.
She had married Jing Rui and died in his hands. He would definitely die a worse death than Jing Rui!
Lu, who was ranked first in the world, would never let him go!
Andrew had a strong intuition that his control over the assassin organization would soone to an end.
If he could kill Edward and seize power, then young deer could kill him and seize power!
Jing Rui took off his mask and looked at Andrew coldly as he entered his room. He said,Mr. Andrew, nice to meet you.
He said very happy, but there was no sign of happiness on his face at all. He exuded a cold aura that gave people a strong sense of oppression.
Andrew was also the number one assassin in the past. He was outstanding in all aspects.
However, after so many years, not only had he gained weight, but he had also lost the sharpness he had when he was young.
However, his expression was still calm. He had seen too many life and death situations, and his mental strength was naturally outstanding.
Young master Jing, Im also very happy to see you! Fortunately, Zishan found out the real body of the Dragon, or I would still be in the dark.
It seems that you two have a good rtionship. She told you all her secrets, and you didnt forget her no matter what you got.
Anyone who is loyal to me will get what they deserve. I only did what I should. I wonder what young master Jings intentions are in hiding in an assassin organization? Does the Jing n want to interfere in the internal affairs of an independent force like us?
My actions do not represent the Jing family. Im only here to save my poor little brother. He was tortured by you guys, so Im afraid its not too much for me to get some interest back.
What interest?! Andrews expression turned cold.
Jing Rui saw his cold expression and said,Of course its Norths life, and ... Your life!
Andrew sneered.You think Im an idiot like North?! Kill me? You still have a chip buried in the back of your ear. I only need onemand to turn you into ashes!
Oh, then Im really quite scared.
You mean this? Jing Rui asked. I dont know if your life will be as fragile as Norths if it explodes!
Andrew was shocked, and his fingers were trembling.A.I. Chip? How did you take it out?
This was impossible! How could Jing Rui take out the chip without alerting him?
He suddenly realized a possibility and cried out,Youve cracked my chip!
Jing Rui nodded.Im sorry. Your chip has not been updated for three years. It is not difficult to crack it.
Andrews face turned pale!
One of the most effective ways for him to control thousands of assassins was through high-tech chips!
Of course, he wanted to rece the chip, but developing a new chip not only required a lot of high-level scientific and technological personnel, but it also required hundreds of millions of funds. He couldnt afford that.
Now that the A. I. Chip had been deciphered, it was equivalent to him losing an arm!
However, he still had other ways to control the assassins. Many assassins were willing to follow him, so he still had the confidence.
It doesnt matter if the A. I. Chip is useless, as long as the person is useful! The assassin base is full of my people, you will never be able to escape! This ce will be your grave!
Andrew could not wait to kill Jing Rui, but he did not dare to act rashly. He was not sure what Jing Rui had up his sleeve.
If he didnt have a trump card, he wouldnt dare to confront him alone.
Jing Rui looked at him and said expressionlessly,Why should I escape? You should be the one running for your life, right?
What do you mean? Andrew was shocked.
It means ... The killer base has changed owners!
A new master? Without my order, who would dare to change! Im the owner of this ce! Whoever I let inherit it will inherit it! Youre just a new killer, you dont have the right to control the entire base!
If Im not qualified, who is?
Jing Rui stared at Andrew coldly and said,Purple fir?
Andrews pupils suddenly shrank, and he immediately denied,Its not her!
Oh, really? Even your own daughter can t?
What did you say?
Andrews biggest secret had been exposed by Jing Rui, and he looked terrible.
I said, your daughter, Zishan!
Jing Rui repeated.
Shes been investigating my identity all this time, so of course Im not idle. Shes so eager to court death, Id be too embarrassed if I didnt fulfill her wish. Before she found out my identity, I had already investigated her thoroughly!
Jing Ruis expression was cold, and his words made Andrews heart sink.
Before Shu Chengshan died, he said that the person who hired him to kill me was called Cheryl! What do you think this Cheryl has against me that she would want to kill such a powerful assassin?
Chapter 994
Chapter 994: Resistance
Trantor: 549690339
Andrews face was pale, but he had been in power for many years and quickly calmed himself down.
His expression was calm, and his slightly chubby face wasposed.I dont know what youre talking about, but I know that you wont be able to get out of here today!
Oh? Dont you know who she is? But Ive done a DNA test for you and Cheryl, and the simrity between your genes is as high as 99%. Isnt she your daughter?
I dont know any Cheryl!
It doesnt matter if you dont know Cheryl. Its enough to know Zishan and Shucheng mountain! Zishan has disappeared so quickly. If it wasnt for your protection, she would have died in my hands! Im just ranked slightly higher than her, and she actually wants my life! You found a helper like Shucheng mountain for your daughter, but you overestimated him! You want to kill me? You and your father should go back and cultivate for another hundred years!
Andrew looked up at Jing Rui and felt that the man in front of him was a devil.
He was the only one who knew that Zishan was his daughter. No one else in the top management of the assassin organization knew Zishans true identity!
Ever since Zishan had joined the assassin organization, she had been training hard. She had never shown her delicate temper and rarely contacted the outside world. She had hidden herself very well.
How did Jing Rui find out?
Killers rarely got married and had children. A killers ruthlessness could only be aroused if he had no ties.
Andrew, however, was an exception.
When he was young, he had been ambitious. He wanted to control the entire assassin organization and be the boss. He also wanted his descendants to control this huge killing machine and profit machine!
He gave birth to a son and a daughter. Unfortunately, his son was hunted down by his enemies when he was twelve years old and lost his life. His daughter, however, was lucky enough to survive the pursuit. He could only do his best to cultivate his daughter.
He had deliberately hidden his daughters identity, and no one had ever known about his rtionship with Zishan. He didnt expect that the secret couldnt be kept!
However, Andrew had been in business for so many years. Although his secret had been exposed, he still had a way to deal with it.
I heard that Shucheng mountain has a daughter. Does young master Jing know that girl? Ive heard that shes very beautiful!
Jing Rui was not surprised. Since Andrew dared to hire Shucheng mountain, he must have investigated it thoroughly.
He nced at Andrews round body and said,What? after using Shucheng mountain, you want to use his daughter?
Andrew suddenly revealed a smile and waved his hand.Oh, no, no, no. I dont need to use her. I just need to tell her the cause of her fathers death and let her know the truth. Thats enough!
He wanted to see Jing Ruis expression change, but no matter how he looked at him, Jing Rui was still cold and indifferent. He did not seem to have any concerns at all.
Could it be that Zishans judgment was wrong?
Jing Rui had no romantic feelings for Shuyin at all?
But Zishan had told him yesterday that Jing Rui valued Shuyin very much, and that they were far more than just friends.
Andrew believed in his daughters judgment. Although his daughter was young, she was excellent in all aspects. She would not be wrong about such a small matter.
If Shuyin finds out that shes been with her fathers murderer and is grateful to him, do you think shell go crazy?
Andrew only knew that Shu Chengshan had been killed by Jing Rui, but he did not know how he had died.
What he did not know was that Shu Chengshan hadmitted suicide so that his daughter would not hate Jing Rui and that Jing Rui would protect her for the rest of her life.
Jing Ruis expression did not change at all. From the day he decided to kill Shucheng Shan, he had already considered the worst possible oue.
It was nothing more than Shuyin wanting revenge, nothing more than the fact that Shuyin would no longer exist in this world!
If you didnt make use of Shucheng mountain, he wouldnt havee to me to die. Shuyin wont be grateful to me, but will she be grateful to you? Besides, she will never know the truth. Those who know the truth will never be able to say anything!
Andrew suddenlyughed out loud. His eyes shed and he said coldly,Zishan was right! Youre interested in Shucheng Shans daughter!
He took a fancy to Shuyin?
Shuyins pretty face shed across Jing Ruis mind, but he shook his head.
It wasnt to the extent that he liked her. He didnt care about her * the most important women in his life were still his mother and sister.
Shuyin just happened to make him feelfortable.
He was willing to take care of Shuyin only because of a promise.
However, he didnt need to exin this to Andrew. Todays tension was only the beginning of the battle!
The killers base had beenpletely sealed off by Andrew. If Jing Rui could not get out, neither could Andrew.
It would only be beneficial to Jing Rui if the fight went on like this. The longer Andrew stayed in there, the higher Lus chances of winning.
Zishan was on vacation on a beautiful ind. Her long hair fell over her shoulders and she was wearing a silk dress. She stood barefoot under a coconut tree, watching the blue sea water rise and fall and seagulls dance around her. However, she was not in a good mood.
She knew that her father and Jing Rui had entered a stage of intense confrontation.
She hated that she couldnt help!
She had been lying in ambush in the assassin organization for so long, desperately learning everything, desperately climbing up, but in the end, she had to hide her name on this Ind that was not marked on the map!
She used to be an international celebrity! When she was young, she was already a youngdy that everyone looked up to. She lived in luxury and was pursued by countless people!
And now?
She was being hunted down again!
And the one who killed her was the man she had been thinking about, Jing Rui!
He was really ruthless. For Shu Yin, he wanted to kill her!
What was so good about that woman?
Zishan lowered her head slightly and looked at her true, beautiful face reflected in the sea. She could not help but sneer.
She was the most beautiful woman in the world. Who was that Shuyin! She was just the daughter of a coward who loved money as much as her life and could do anything!
Her father was the most powerful person in a famous assassin organization!
If he married her, he would have everything!
Jing Rui was the man she had finally fallen for, and she was determined to win him over.
It was impossible for Shuyin to marry Jing Rui. There was a blood feud between the two of them. She did not believe that Shuyin would not take revenge after knowing the truth!
Zishans eyes were filled with viciousness, causing Liao Wei, who was not far away from her, to shiver!
When Liao Wei first saw Zishans beautiful face, he immediately fell in love with her. He felt that there was no woman more beautiful than Zishan!
However, after being in contact with her for a long time, he realized that this woman was definitely the most poisonous snake!
Chapter 995
Chapter 995: Bring me along, Ill go too!
Trantor: 549690339
Zishan turned around and looked at the handsome face, which was very simr to Jing Rui s, and said coldly,What, now youre afraid?
When he first met her, Liao Wei was overconfident and even wanted to use his face to conquer her! He even wanted to touch her!
He had a good face but no brain!
Liao Wei did not want to admit the fear in his heart, so he braced himself and said,No, youre very beautiful. All men like women like you. Smart, beautiful, and with good temperament!
However, Zishan wasnt the kind of youngdy who would get smug the moment someoneplimented her. She was very opinionated, and at the same time, she didnt like others to tter her.
What was more, she had just lost to Jing Rui. Even if all the men in the world liked her, she would not ept it if Jing Rui did not like her.
Only an outstanding man like Jing Rui was qualified to pursue her. Liao Wei was nothing!
However, Liao Weis appearance was too good. Not only was his face extremely handsome, but his figure was also very good. He was tall and straight. Because he worked out all year round, there was not a trace of fat on his body. His legs were long and straight, and his waist and abdomen were strong and strong. He had the standard figure of a male model.
Zishan wanted to punish him, but she couldnt bear to ruin his face and body.
Who asked him to look so much like Jing Rui?
Even if he had stic surgery, he was still very attractive!
His temperament had been taught by Jing Yichen at a high price. Although he did not have the aura of a King like Jing Rui, he still had the look of a rich young master, especially when he kept a cold face and did not speak.
Zishan stared at Liao Wei for a while until his scalp turned numb before she said,I have a way for you to return to family Jing as the young master and the heir. Do you want to go back to your noble life?
Yes! Liao Weis eyes lit up.
But Liao Wei was not stupid. He did not have Jing Ruis ability, but he had the drive to curry favor with others. He knew that Zishan would not help him for no reason.
What do you want? I dont think I can give you what you want.
Zi Shans slightly cold hand gently slid across Liao Weis face as she giggled,Of course, you cant afford what I want! As long as you cooperate with me, Ill give you what you want, and Ill get what I want!
She was beautiful to begin with, and now that she was smiling, she was even more beautiful and charming like a flower. Her eyes had a kind of soul-stirring charm that made people want to die in her arms.
Liao Wei looked at her face in a daze. His gaze could not help but move down and then stared at her full chest. He raised his hand, wanting to hold the delicate little hand that was touching his face.
However, before he could touch Zishan, he was kicked by Zishan.
Liao Wei let out a blood-curdling screech and drew an arc in the air before falling into the sea with a bang.
It would take him ten minutes to struggle up to the shore.
He spat out arge mouthful of blood and his face was pale, but his eyes were filled with viciousness and malice. He cursed Zishan a thousand times in his heart.
Stinky B * tch! He would punch and kick him at random, not holding back at all. There were no injuries on the surface of his body, but his internal injuries were endless!
No wonder Jing Rui did not like her.
Did she think that he did not know how she felt about Jing Rui? She started thinking about men at such a young age, who knew what she would be in the future!
One day, he would make her cry and beg for mercy under his body!
Liao Wei gritted his teeth in hatred, but in the blink of an eye, his expression changed and he walked towards the vi on the ind with a face full of fear.
He couldnt fall out with her now. He still wanted to use Zishan to take the wealth of the Jing family and kill Jing Rui.
He could not kill Jing Rui, but Zishan could!
However, he had to leave this damn ce first! There was no signal here, and he had no way of contacting the outside world. He could only be bullied by Zishan!
Shuyin had been waiting in the hotel for three days, but Jing Rui was still nowhere to be seen.
Having worked with Jing Rui for two years, Shuyin knew him very well. If there was no reason, he would not leave her with no information.
Even if he couldnt find her personally and arrange for her to go to A city, he should have asked someone else to do it.
Did something happen?
Shuyin was suddenly a little worried. She didnt know whether to stay here and wait for him or go back to A city as he had instructed.
She wanted to ask the people who were protecting her, but she felt that it was unnecessary. If Jing Rui had any other instructions, they would have told her. But they had not done anything, which meant that they had no news of Jing Rui.
Another day passed. Shu Yin was so anxious that she had no choice but to contact Jing Zhi and Peter.
Jing Zhi and Peter had not received any news from Jing Rui for several days in a row. But this was normal for them, as Jing Rui would only send them messages when he had something important to do.
Jing Zhi doubted Shuyins judgment. In his eyes, Shuyin was a female doctor at most, and her abilities were only reflected in her research on viruses and treatment of minor injuries and illnesses.
Her brothers matters were confidential andplicated, and it wasnt something a girl like her could understand.
He called Peter over for a discussion.Shuyin, arent you making a fuss? Its normal for my brother not to contact me for a month. I didnt look for Shuyin for a few days, and she thought something happened to my brother?
No, I believe in Shuyins judgment! Peter said with a grave expression.
Unlike Jing Zhi, Peter had personally witnessed how Shuyin had struggled to survive at the Virus Research Institute.
In that kind of ce, to be able to protect yourself and not be a test subject of a virus, not only did you need luck, but you also needed brains and schemes!
The Virus Research Institute would conduct an IQ test for every child who had just arrived. Shuyins IQ was above 140, and she was the one with the highest IQ among the people the Research Institute had recruited in the past ten years!
It was just that Shuyin was usually deliberately low-key and never revealed her strength, so no one paid much attention to her and only treated her as an ordinary child.
He had heard Shuyins description and judgment of the whole incident, and he had the same thought as Shuyin. Jing Rui must have been entangled in something, and it must be something tricky.
Boss is in trouble, so I want to go to North America to help. Itll be best if hes fine, but if hes not, Id be useless if I just wait in city A!
Peter only thought for a while before making a decision. After following Jing Rui for so long, it had be more decisive in its actions.
I still have a lot of forces in North America. I think they should be able to help Boss! Ill leave now, so you wait in A city. Ill let you know immediately when I have news.
After Peter finished speaking, it stood up and was about to leave.
Jing Zhi suddenly stood up and said firmly,Take me, Im going too!

Chapter 996: The most intimate Stranger
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo was used to being carried away at night and going home the next morning.
However, tonight, she waited left and right, and waited until the morning, but she still did not see that tall figure.
She had thought that she would feel relieved and happy if Jing Zhi didnte.
However, not only did she not feel happy, but she also felt disappointed!
Her sister had gone to the military school the day after the new year, leaving her alone at home. She had no one to confide in.
She felt like she had lost her mind. She hadnt seen Jing Zhi for one night after being bullied by him, and she was already out of her mind.
She spent the whole day in a daze. Even Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun had noticed that something was wrong with their daughter.
But no matter how they asked, she said she was fine. The couple couldnt do anything about it. Their daughter had been like this ever since Jing Zhi went missing, so they didnt take it to heart.
Zheng yuluo had not slept the entire night. She had slept during the day and was wide awake at night.
She had been waiting since the evening, but Jing Zhi was still nowhere to be seen.
Her heart was empty and she felt terrible.
Was it really as Jing Zhi said, that he was just ying with her, and that he would switch her out when he was tired of her?
Did he still hate her?
Otherwise, why would he suddenly abandon her? a few days ago, he did not miss a single day. Even on the night of the new year, he still brought her back to the hotel without a care. He tossed her around the whole night, causing her to not be able to get out of bed the next day.
She couldnt read Jing Zhis mind. She knew too little about men.
He would buy her ointment, undergarments, and even more than a dozen pairs of shoes two days ago so that she didnt have to wear disposable slippers when she left the hotel in the morning.
However, up until now, he had never once kissed her!
Every time they were in bed, he would go straight to the point. It was useless for her to beg for mercy. He would definitely torture her to death before letting her go.
Zheng yuluo might not know about other people, but she knew about her parents love.
His father still doted on his mother. Every morning when he went to work, he would give his mother a kiss and say with a gentle smile,Im going to work. Wait for me at home tonight.
Perhaps she had given herself too many psychological hints!
Jing Zhi had never shown any special feelings for her. He was doing the most intimate thing with her just to get back at her.
A corner of Zheng yuluos heart was quietly torn open. It was bleeding, and it was so painful that she wanted to cry.
She didnt sleep the whole night. The next morning, she greeted her parents and took a taxi to the hotel.
She couldnt let go of Jing Zhi no matter what.
She was willing to give up everything, as long as he was not angry with her and he was safe.
Zheng yuluo quietly stood guard outside the hotel, from early morning to noon, from noon to sunset, and from sunset to midnight.
She didnt even see Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo hesitated for a while, then entered the hotel and asked the waiter.
Zheng yuluo had been a regr at the hotel recently. Jing Zhi carried her home every night and left in the morning. The hotel staff had long recognized her.
Hearing her ask about Jing Zhi, the waitress tried her best not to show any suspicion.Mr. Li left at noon the day before yesterday and hasnt returned since.
Jing Rui had used a fake identity when he booked the hotel for Jing Zhi. Thest name Jing was too eye-catching in A city, so he had given Jing Zhi the most inconspicuous name. That was why the waiter had called Jing Zhi Mr. Li.
Zheng yuluo was stunned when she heard the waiters words.He left?!
Yes, miss. Mr. Li ... Didnt he tell you?
The waitress looked down on Zheng yuluo. She felt that she was the kind of person who would sleep with her every night, only to be dumped ande to her door.
If it wasnt for her beauty and her good temperament, unlike those women who had heavy makeup on, the waiter wouldnt even be willing to talk to her.
Zheng yuluo was stumped by the waiters question!
Her snow-white face instantly flushed red as she shook her head in embarrassment.He ... He didnt tell me.
She had slept with Jing Zhi so many times, but they had never spoken to each other.
No matter what he had to say, he would never tell her. Now that the waiter had asked, the question seemed to be even more obvious.
At least the waiter knew that he had been away for three days, but she had no idea!
She seemed to be insignificant to him, and all her concerns and worries were just a joke!
Zheng yuluo no longer had the face to stay, so she turned around and fled.
When she got home, the tears in her eyes fell with a plop.
Was she going to lose news of him again?
She was nothing in his eyes!
How could she be so foolish to think that doing the most intimate thing with him would change their rtionship!
Nothing had changed between the two of them!
In a luxury hotel in North America, Jing Zhi stood by the window and listened quietly to Peter and Shu Yins analysis of the situation.
He didnt understand any of the messy power struggles and conspiracies.
He only knew that his brother was in a critical period. The huge killing machine of the assassin organization was likely to be his brothers in the future!
As for Zheng yuluo, he had no time to think about her.
In his heart, even a hundred Zheng yuluo could notpare to a single strand of his brothers hair.
He opened his palm and looked at the two light blue words in his palm. His eyes were slightly wet.
After returning to A city, he had already understood everything that had happened back then.
When he had gone missing at the age of ten, family Jing had asked the two major organizations for him, but neither the Research Institute nor the killer organization had admitted to taking him away.
His hiding ce had be a mystery.
Her twelve-year-old brother had given up his good life and the right of inheritance of family Jing. In order to find him, he had joined a killer organization.
After that, she began to protect him for seven years.
Every time he was in danger, it was his brother who helped him resolve it.
In the Research Institute, every bit of care and concern came from her brother.
Peter and Shuyin were only the two close-range yers taking care of him. There were still many others hidden in the shadows to ensure his safety and ensure his health.
He had been studying in the killer organization for so long. His physical fitness was excellent, and he had such excellent conditions. It was not for him to enjoy.
In the past, it was his brother who protected him. Now, he had the ability to protect his brother!
Jing Zhi suddenly turned around and said to Peter,You find a way to send me to the killer base, I want to see my brother! Ill take him away from there!
Peter was taken aback and quickly rejected the offer.No, you cant go!
Shuyin also said,Jing Zhi, its too dangerous over there. The news that Peter received recently is that the Assassins base is in a mess. None of the people who went in cane out. You should know the structure of the base best. If we try to break out of it by force, it will only cause the base to explode!
Chapter 997
Chapter 997: Big brother, Im here to save you!
Trantor: 549690339
Even if it explodes, with my speed, I can still leave with my brother safely!
Jing Zhi had been in the Assassins base for a long time, so he knew that the structure of the base was very special. Once the defense function was activated, all the exits would be sealed, and all the doors would turn into bombs.
Most of the buildings in the base were underground, and the parts above the ground were just for cover.
It was extremely difficult to break out of the underground, or Jing Rui would have left long ago.
Shuyin knew that Jing Zhi loved Jing Rui deeply, and she also knew that Jing Rui loved his younger brother even more.
So, she couldnt let Jing Zhi take the risk.
She was the one who had called him here. If something happened to Jing Zhi, she would be the first person Jing Rui would kill when he came out.
She took a deep breath and said slowly,The main reason for the turmoil in the killer organization was that Jing Rui wanted to take down the organization. Therefore, the Assassins base could not be destroyed. It cost tens of billions to build that base, and there were so many assassins living inside. Once it exploded, the damage would be incalcble! Blowing up the base is the worst way to go.
Jing Zhi had already heard Shu Yin and Peter say this a few times. He grabbed his hair impatiently and said,Alright, alright, stop talking! You and Peter are so indecisive that you cant do this or that! It has been so many days, what if my brother starved to death inside! I have to save him, I cant waste another minute!
Peter red at him in annoyance.If it was that easy to save people, the Boss would have appeared long ago! Its not that were overcautious, but this matter is too tricky! The number one boss of your assassin organization, Andrew, is also inside. That old thing is full of tricks, whoever goes in will die! Youd better stay in the hotel obediently, there will be a time for you to make a move!
Although Peter was also anxious, it understood Jing Ruis strength and knew that Andrew would not have much of an advantage in the game. The two of them were in a stalemate, and neither of them would be willing to give in.
Boss didnte out, but it doesnt mean that he cante out. Im afraid he deliberately didnt want toe out. I wont starve you to death. You should go and rest first. When I need you to act, you wont have time to rest even if you want to.
Your words can fool a three-year-old child! Andrew, that old thing, is the worst. He must be bullying my brother inside. Theres no need to say anything. Anyway, Im more familiar with the assassin base than I am. Its okay to go! Im leaving!
Jing Zhi didnt believe a single word that Peter had said. He felt that Peter was trying to console him.
He ignored Peter and Shu Yins attempts to stop him and jumped out of the window, disappearing into the night.
Peter and Shuyin looked at each other helplessly and smiled wryly. With their abilities, there was no way they could stop Jing Zhi.
Deep underground in the base, Jing Rui and Andrew were still in a stalemate.
Jing Zhi was right. He hadnt eaten for days.
Simrly, Andrew didnt have anything to eat, and he didnt dare to.
Both of them would rather be hungry than eat, because they were not sure if the food was poisonous.
However, even though Jing Rui had not slept for several days and had not eaten much, his body could still take it.
He was young and would only be twenty years old after the new year.
Furthermore, he had the most powerful virus in his body that could break down his cells and provide him with energy.
Andrew, on the other hand, was almost 60 years old and his bodily functions had deteriorated severely. He could not survive Jing Ruis attack. He felt dizzy and wished that his men could pounce on Jing Rui and kill him.
But Jing Ruis men were not to be trifled with, and he did not have the upper hand at all.
Andrew was even a little scared!
He had never known that so many people in the assassin base had already submitted to Jing Rui.
If he hade a few dayster, the entire assassin base would have changed hands!
Also, he had been in there for so many days. Without him outside, could Angel have bribed all the senior leaders of the killer organization?
Angel had already roped in arge number of people to seize his power.
Although she was a woman, she was now the unshakeable number one assassin in the world. Just this strength alone had allowed her to have many followers.
And she looked exactly the same as she did ten or even twenty years ago! She was still like a young person, full of vitality and without any signs of aging. Such a person was more attractive than an old man like him!
He had never thought that Angel, who was not interested in the world, would be interested in power!
She had seized power, and he had not been on guard at all!
Therefore, from the second day after he came in, Andrew regretted it so much that his intestines turned green!
He felt that he had made a wrong decision!
He shouldnt havee to the Assassins base to waste time with Jing Rui!
Andrew gritted his teeth and decided topromise with Jing Rui.
Our two sides are evenly matched. If we continue fighting, we will lose countless people. Ill unlock the bases closed system and let you leave, but you cant take anyone away. At the same time, you have topensate me for my losses.
Jing Rui looked at Andrew as if he was an idiot and said coldly,Its toote! Either you blow this ce up and we all die Here, or you hand over all your power and I can let you live for a few more days and see your daughter onest time!
He knew that Andrew wouldnt blow up the ce, because if he did, not only would Andrew not survive, but the tens of billions of investment and construction would also be destroyed immediately!
Andrew would definitely be reluctant to do so. He didnt have more money to build a new assassin base.
Of course, Jing Rui did not want to do that.
This ce would be his in the future!
How could the modern high-tech assassin training base, which had been carefully designed andid out by dozens of experts, spent more than 70 billion Yuan and five years to build, be blown up just like that?
You cant do this even if you have money.
Andrew was almost angered to death by Jing Ruis words. He had already given in, but Jing Rui was still so aggressive!
How many years had it been since someone dared to speak to him like that!
He was so angry that he wanted to kill someone, but he could not do it!
Jing Rui was more powerful than him, and he was no match for Jing Rui in a one-on-one fight.
Andrew was still angry when he suddenly saw a person beside Jing Rui.
What kind of ghostly speed was this! He was so fast that she couldnt even see his figure clearly!
When the ghost stopped in front of Jing Rui, Andrew was shocked and shouted,Jing Zhi, why are you here?
Jing Zhi didnt even look at him. He only said to Jing Rui,Brother, Im here to save you!
Chapter 998
Chapter 998: Jing Rui?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was just as shocked as Andrew. He was not even as surprised when Andrew hade and trapped him here.
Who allowed you toe here?
Jing Ruis face was cold, and even his voice was cold. He did not seem to be happy to see his brother.
Jing Zhi, on the other hand, was very happy. It was great that his brother was fine.
No one asked me toe. I was worried about you, so I came to take a look! Dont let this old thing bully you. He imnted two microchips in me and almost made me deaf. Brother, you have to be careful!
Jing Rui did not believe what Jing Zhi said. Only his men and Lu knew that he was trapped here.
The other person who knew that something had happened to him was probably Shuyin.
There was no doubt that Jing Zhi had gotten the news from Shuyin, because Lu would never tell Jing Zhi about it. As his mother, she wanted her son to know nothing about it and live a happy life in A city.
However, now was not the time to pursue the matter.
Jing Zhi had been reckless, but he was strong enough to protect himself.
He was no longer a child who needed protection everywhere. He was fully grown and experienced in fighting enemies. He could be his most powerful assistant!
Jing Rui recovered from the shock of seeing his younger brother and the coldness on his face disappeared. He said,Dont worry, your revenge will be taken very soon.
Jing Zhi was so happy that his brother didnt me him for taking the risk.
This proved that his brother trusted him. Not only did he trust him as a person, but he also trusted his strength!
There was nothing that could make one happier than being respected by the person they respected most.
He walked to Jing Rui and stood beside him. He said in high spirits,Brother, were invincible together!
Jing Rui was speechless at his brothers arrogance, but he felt warm when he saw his brothers innocent face full of fearlessness.
He was also a human, a body of flesh and blood, not made of steel.
He was very pleased to have a brother who was willing to take the risk to save him.
The Assassins base had been fully closed by Andrew. If one wanted to enter, they would have to try countless times to find a loophole in the closed system.
She didnt know how long it took Jing Zhi to get in. It was hard on him.
While Jing Rui was still in love with his brother, Andrew was fuming with anger.
These two brothers had the same character. They were both insolent and did not put him in their eyes at all. They wanted him to die whenever they opened or closed their mouths. He did not believe that he could not deal with these two young boys today!
As the saying went,To Catch a Thief, first catch the leader. Andrew had been trying to catch Jing Rui and subdue him, but he could not get close to Jing Ruis clothes.
Jing Rui had the same n. He could not kill Andrew for now, or his followers would attack him without any regard for their lives. It would be bad if he detonated the entire base before he died.
He wanted Andrew alive.
They had been evenly matched, but now that Jing Zhi hade, the bnce was broken.
Jing Rui was the one who knew Jing Zhis strength the best. His nickname mo Mei was not for nothing. He was so fast that he could turn into a shadow. It was the most efficient way to get him to catch Andrew.
However, both sides were fighting intensely and bullets were flying everywhere. He was worried that Jing Zhi would be injured, so he hesitated.
Brother, let me go. Only I can catch him!
Zheng yuluo felt like she was floating in the clouds. She opened her eyes with great effort and saw a familiar face.
She was extremely surprised,Jing Rui? Why are you ... Where am I?
Liao Wei looked at her and imitated Jing Ruis cold tone.Youre in my helicopter.
What? Zheng yuluo was even more surprised.Where are you taking me?
Jing Rui had been very cold to her and her sister Zheng Yuwei since they were young. When they were young, the more cold Jing Rui was to her, the more she was not convinced and tried to get closer to him.
But when she grew up, she no longer had the mood to get close to Jing Rui.
She knew clearly that they were not from the same world as Jing Rui. No matter what they did, they would not be able to fit into his life.
In the past, she was just a little girl who blindly admired the strongest.
She still admired Jing Rui, but she did not want to get close to him.
For some reason, she did not think that Jing Rui was a good person, perhaps out of her instincts as a girl.
He looked very cold, but the way he looked at her was like looking at a te of desserts that she could swallow, which always made her hair stand on end.
Zheng yuluo had seen such looks many times.
She knew that she was beautiful, and it was normal for men to look at her.
But in her heart, anyone could look at her that way, except for Jing Rui.
He used to be superior and disdainful of everything. He should be even more disdainful of her, the one who hurt Jing Zhi. How could he have any desire for her?
Liao Wei did not know that Zheng yuluo was on guard against him. He thought that no one could beat him when he yed Jing Rui, and even if Jing Rui came in person, no one would be able to tell the difference.
His face was cold, and the words he said were also cold.Jing Zhi went to North America and was taken away by those people. I think youre the most suitable person to save him.
Zheng yuluo was so shocked that even her head was buzzing.You ... What did you say? This is impossible!
She thought Jing Zhi had left her. She never thought that he would be taken away by those people again.
She was flustered and her heart ached for him. She wished she could fly to Jing Zhis side immediately.
After a long while, her nk mind started to work. Youre saying I can save him? How do we save him?
Liao Wei looked at Zheng yuluo, who had a curvaceous figure and a beautiful face, and the evil fire in his heart suddenly rose!
He was a 23-year-old man, but he had never been able to touch a woman. He was almost suffocating!
The pitiful stunner in front of him, who had an outstanding appearance, immediately woke up from a certain part of his body.
He scanned Zheng yuluos body from head to toe with an obscure gaze, maintaining his cold expression.If I say you can save him, you can. Why? you dont want to save him?
Zheng yuluo felt ufortable under his gaze. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, but she quickly said,No, Im willing!
She was no longer an innocent girl. She had been with Jing Zhi every night for the past few days, so she was very sensitive to some of the mens reactions.
Chapter 999
Chapter 999: Younger brother carrying older brother
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo pretended to lower her eyes inadvertently. With just one nce, she saw the change in a certain part of Liao Wei!
Her expression changed slightly, and her heart began to beat wildly!
How could this be!
How could Jing Rui, who was so high and mighty in her heart, be so unbearable?
She believed that with Jing Ruis ability, he would have known about her and Jing Zhi.
She was already Jing Zhis woman. How could Jing Rui, as his brother, have any evil thoughts about her?
Zheng yuluos first reaction was that this man was not Jing Rui!
This was because he was not the Jing Rui that she remembered. He was apletely different person.
Zheng yuluo had seen Jing Rui countless times in recent years.
First, she felt that she had hurt Jing Zhi and was too embarrassed to see Jing Rui.
Secondly, Jing Rui was cold and ruthless. He never spoke a word to anyone, and Zheng yuluo would not give him the cold shoulder.
So she could not tell why Jing Rui had be like this.
But who else could it be if not Jing Rui?
Last year, she had gone to the hospital with her sister to see him. It was this face!
However, there was something wrong at that time, but she did not take it to heart.
Whether the person in front of her was Jing Rui or not, Zheng yuluo was on her guard.
She had nothing to say about Jing Zhi bullying her, but she would rather die than be touched by someone else.
She had been sleeping well at home, but in the blink of an eye, she had been taken to the helicopter without even saying goodbye.
Although it seemed like something Jing Rui would do, she felt that something was not right.
Jing Rui, can I give my parents a call? If I just leave like this, theyll be worried if they cant find me. I want to tell them that Im safe.
She wanted to see if Jing Rui would allow her to talk to her parents.
Liao Wei nced at her. Her eyes were filled with tears, which made his heart ache.
A beauty was indeed a beauty. Even if she did not put on any makeup and wore in clothes, she was still beautiful and breathtaking!
If he were to strip her naked and press her under his body, listening to her begging for mercy in such a delicate voice, that feeling would definitely be very wonderful!
Liao Wei swallowed a mouthful of saliva and forced himself to calm down. Ive already asked someone to tell your parents to take you to North America. You dont have to worry. If you want to make a call, you can do so after the nends.
It sounded seamless!
Zheng yuluos face was pale, and even her fingertips were trembling slightly.
This was not Jing Rui!
Jing Rui had always been a man of few words, and he would never have said so much to her.
Jing Rui would not have said a single word to her when she asked him to call her parents.
She had clearly seen Liao Weis action of swallowing his saliva just now and her heart turned cold!
Fortunately, the person in front of her was still in disguise and had no intention of touching her.
Zheng yuluoforted herself that she must remain calm and not show any suspicion!
She didnt dare to chat casually with Liao Wei anymore and pretended to be at a loss as she curled up on the small bed. However, her brain was constantly thinking about how to deal with this.
The darkness gradually receded, and the morning light enveloped the entire assassin base.
Jing Zhis tall figure walked out slowly. He was carrying a man who was as tall as him on his back.
Brother, what do you want to eat? Ill call Shuyin and ask her to make it for you!
Jing Rui leaned on his shoulder and looked a little upset.Put me down, I can walk on my own!
Jing Zhi grinned and held Jing Ruis legs tighter.That wont do. Youre injured and youve been hungry for so many days. You dont have much strength left. Itll be better if I carry you!
Jing Rui was injured at thest moment, but it was not his leg that was injured, but his arm, so he could walk without any problem.
But Jing Zhi lifted him up without a second thought. He wasnt as strong as Jing Zhi, so he couldnt struggle even if he wanted to.
I dont need you to carry me, I can still walk if I starve for a few days! If you dont let go, Im going to get angry!
Jing Rui felt embarrassed to be carried by his younger brother.
But Jing Zhi was much more shameless than Jing Rui. He felt that it was great to carry his brother on his back. He felt that he was finally useful and not a burden to his brother.
Brother, I just helped you take down that old bastard Andrew. Arent you going to let me carry you? Last time, you carried me and escaped from the sea of fire. Its nothing for me to carry you out of the assassin base! If only it was on fire now, it would reflect my value!
Jing Rui was so angry that he almostughed.
Wasnt it dangerous enough? why did he still need fire?
Andrew almost detonated the entire base just now. If he didnt remove his arm at the cost of getting injured, the base might have been destroyed!
Big brother, dont move. Im your little brother, whats wrong with carrying you? I like to carry you, you are not heavy at all! Ill just recite it once, okay?
Jing Zhis tone was pleading. He knew that his brother had always been strong-headed, and this was probably the first time he had been carried.
Jing Rui could not stand his brothers pleading tone. He was taller than him and an adult, but sometimes he spoke like an innocent child.
He would always remember how Jing Zhi had followed him around and called him brother when they were young.
In the eyes of a genius with a high IQ like him, his younger brother was no different from a fool. Now that he had grown up, his IQ still had not improved.
His heart softened a little, and he gave a faint mm through his nose, which was considered a yes.
Jing Zhi was so happy that he jumped up with Jing Rui on his back, which startled Jing Rui.
He shook his head helplessly. Jing Zhi was already eighteen years old, but he still acted like a child.
Jing Zhi was very happy. He ran as fast as he could with his brother on his back.Brother, why didnt you kill that bastard Andrew? Wouldnt it be a disaster if we let him live?
He will definitely die, but not now, Jing Rui said calmly. If you want to take revenge, you can make him suffer more, but dont let him die.
Andrew yed an important role in this, but he didnt exin it to Jing Zhi. Jing Zhi didnt need to know too much. He was the one who controlled everything.
Oh, Jing Zhi replied obediently. He didnt ask for the reason. His brother was so much smarter than him anyway, so he didnt want to waste his time thinking.
The two of them had not gone far when a figure quickly approached them.
Jing Zhi was immediately on guard against the mans speed.
Jing Rui patted Jing Zhis shoulder.My people, let me down.
Jing Zhi put Jing Rui down unwillingly, and soon, the man was in front of them.
Ah Chi!
Chapter 1000
Chapter 1000: You must have heard of her code name
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhis eyes widened as he looked at the man. His brother said that he was one of his own, but why didnt this man greet him first? And he even called her that so intimately!
You are? he asked, somewhat baffled.
I am you| Mother!
What?
Jing Zhis eyes almost popped out of their sockets!
In just a few seconds, he had a mother?
Please, you have to act more realistically, okay?
The girl in front of him didnt look as old as him. She had a baby face, a baby voice, a ponytail, and was wearing white sportswear. No matter how he looked at her, she looked like an underage girl!
However, why did this underaged girl look so familiar?
Before Jing Zhi could roll his eyes, he was caught off guard and pulled into a warm embrace.
The young girls strength was astonishing. He wanted to push her away, but he actually did not seed!
What kind of freak was this!
Jing Zhi turned to his brother for help.Brother, did she escape from the mental hospital?
Jing Rui red at him and said,mental hospital? Shes your mother!
As he said that, he called out to the youngdy indifferently,Second aunt!
Lu ignored him. She held Jing Zhis waist and buried her face in his chest, crying.
Jing Zhi didnt know what to do. He had no experience in coaxing women.
His only woman, Zheng yuluo, would only need to be scared a little every time she cried. Now ... This young girl was even an Auntie. What should he do?
Jing Rui had no other choice. Although he had experience in coaxing his mother, it might not work on Lu.
Lu and Shangguan ning were twopletely different people. This was the first time he had seen Lu cry.
She was as cold as a robot and didnt get close to anyone. She didnt have any special feelings for her nephew either. She didnt care about anyone except Jing Yiran and Jing Zhi.
Lu was not the kind of woman who liked to cry. After a while, she raised her head, wiped her tears and touched Jing Zhis face.Son, youve grown up. Im very happy!
No one med themselves more than Lu, because she was the one who had passed the virus to Jing Zhi. If it hadnt been for that, Jing Zhi wouldnt have been taken away and tortured for so long as a test subject.
Her guilt and heartache could not be any greater!
Now that she saw her son standing in front of her, she was so happy that she forgot everything.
Jing Zhi was still in a daze, but he finally realized why Lu looked so familiar.
There really was such a person in his memory!
He had also seen the family portrait hanging at home, and the person in it was her!
However, why did her appearance not change at all after so many years?
Being called son by someone who looked younger than him was as weird as it could get!
With his memory as proof and his brothers confession, Jing Zhi was sure that the woman in front of him was his mother.
He had no problem calling Jing Yiran father, but he could not call Lu mother.
The expression on his face was extremely conflicted. His handsome face was flushed red, and he had a pitiful look on his face.
Unfortunately, Lu was not good at reading people. She only cared about the joy of reuniting with her son and did not care about his awkwardness.
Chi, your mother is also in the killer organization, Jing Rui said calmly. We came in together after you went missing. However, Im a newbie, but shes not. Before we were born, she was already a world-famous killer.
No one had ever told Jing Zhi about this.
He was stunned. The woman in front of him was also an assassin?
Did his mother also join an assassin organization for him?
You must have heard of her codename.
What?
Angel!
What?
Jing Zhi let go of the woman in his arms and stared at the baby face in shock.
She, she, she ... Is ... Angel?!
The number one most beautiful female assassin in the world!
How could he not have heard of it!
The top assassin that everyone in the world of assassins knew about!
She was a legend and miracle in the world of assassins!
She had been famous for a long time and had upied the first ce on the assassin ranking list for twenty years! Twenty years ago, she was the second most powerful person in the world, and she had killed the first most powerful person in the world!
And this person, the person he had always admired, was actually his mother?
It was rumored that she had disappeared from the world of assassins for ten years, and he had been taken away when she was ten years old.
In other words, the famous Angel had been raising him during the ten years when she disappeared!
The amount of information he had received in such a short time made Jing Zhi dizzy.Um ... Brother, brother ... Do you have water? I, I, I ... Im hungry!
Seeing him stutter, Jing Rui smiled.Yeah, Im hungry too. Lets go and eat first.
Lu followed the two brothers, but kept her eyes on her son.
In fact, she was luckier than Jing Yiran, because she had been in North America all the time. As long as Jing Rui could provide her with information about Jing Zhi, she would be able to follow him and protect him.
She had watched Jing Zhi grow up, so she was no stranger to him.
But Lu was a stranger to Jing Zhi.
He felt his scalp go numb when he saw a baby face showing a kind look and tiptoeing to touch his head!
Did he encounter all the strangest things in the world?
Jing Zhi wanted to hold his brothers arm, but Jing Rui didnt like physical contact. He was already very ufortable being carried on Jing Zhis back, so he quickly dodged to the side when he saw Jing Zhi holding his arm.This ce is too far from the city. We need a car.
My car and my people are not far away, Lu said immediately.We will see them soon.
In order to prevent Andrew from blowing up the base, she and Jing Ruis men stayed far away from him.
Lu didnt have many people with her, but they were all elites.
Jing Rui introduced Jing Zhi to the crowd, so that he could get familiar with the forces.
Andrew was already in his hands, and he would take away his power one by one.
It wouldnt be long before he could take over this huge organization!
But he couldnt stay in North America all the time, so Jing Zhi was a good choice. With Lu, the killer organization would recover soon.
When they were alone in the car, Jing Rui said,Ah Chi, how about you take over the future of the assassin organization?
Chapter 1001
Chapter 1001: Did you ask Jing Zhi toe to North America?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhis eyes widened,brother, arent you afraid Ill mess it up? Its easy for me to be an assassin, but its hard for me to be a boss!
I wont let you manage it alone. Ill always be supporting you from behind. In addition, youll have many assistants.
Oh, thats good enough. Otherwise, I wont be able to manage it well! If the Empire that youve worked so hard to build is defeated in my hands, I wont have the face to see you anymore!
Jing Zhis personality was simr to Lu s. They were both not ambitious and did not like to be leaders. They could defend their territory, but they could not expand it.
However, Jing Zhis blood was boiling when his brother trusted him so much and gave him such arge organization!
He would see who would dare to bully him and his brother in the future after he gained control of the huge killing machine that was the assassin organization!
Jing Zhi admired his brother from the bottom of his heart. He had only wanted to kill Andrew, his enemy, but never thought of taking over the killer organization and controlling it for himself.
With so many assassins, it was impossible for them to disband just like that. Instead of letting others control them, it was better to control them yourself!
Big brother, youre amazing!
Jing Zhi was very excited, but Jing Rui was calm and did not look proud at all.
He had been nning this for eight years, not one or two.
Besides, he was not the only one who did it. The Jing family had mobilized a huge amount of manpower and resources, and Jing zhongxius connections in the killer organization had yed an even bigger role. Otherwise, he would not have been able to control all the resources of the killer organization so quickly.
After Jing Rui settled the matter, he felt more at ease.
He and Jing Zhi could finally go home and no longer be bound by others.
In fact, he had wanted Jing Zhi to manage the killer organization for a long time.
Jing Zhi was a perfect fit for this ce, but he wasnt suitable for running his familys business in A city, nor was he suitable for socializing and drinking with people in the business world and the government.
The three of them went to the hotel where Shuyin and Peter were staying. In the room, not only did Shuyin prepare a variety of food and fruits for Jing Rui, she even specially bought him new clothes, prepared a bath, and even prepared a full set of medicine and bandages for him.
Of course, Shuyin, Peter, and Jing Zhi were staying separately. Shuyin was staying in a standard room, while the five of them squeezed into her room when Jing Rui arrived at the hotel.
She and Lu were still fine as they had the bodies of young girls, but Jing Rui and the other two men were all tall and big. The originally spacious room suddenly became crowded.
Jing Zhis eyes darted around as he pulled Peter and young deer out of the room. As he walked, he shouted,Well...Peter, I dont seem to be feeling well either. Do you want to give me a checkup?
Peter had been ying with Jing Zhi for eight years now. Just by looking at Jing Zhis expression, Peter could tell what he was thinking.
He looked at Jing Rui and Shu Yin in confusion and followed Jing Zhi out.Oh, really? Then I should let you take a look, but ... The person beside you is ...
Oh, this ... This ... My sister!
As far as I know, youre the only child and dont have any younger sister!
That ... Cousin! Cant younger cousin sister?
I know your family situation better than you do. You dont have an uncle or an aunt, so where did you get a cousin?
Jing Rui and Lu looked at Jing Zhi speechlessly. Who would call their mother his sister? The difference in seniority was too great!
Young deer gave Peter a look and said,Peter, right? Hello, thank you for taking care of ah Chi. Im his mother.
What?
Mother!
This baby-faced girl with a ponytail?
How old was she this year?
Sixteen? Or eighteen?
The cup in Shuyins hand fell to the floor with a bang, sshing water all over her.
Peters eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!
But seeing Lus serious look and Jing Zhis embarrassed look, he knew that she was not joking.
However, after a brief moment of shock, Peter and Shuyin quickly epted this reality.
They believed that Lu was Jing Zhis mother, because they both knew that Lu carried a powerful virus that could keep a persons appearance the same.
The virus in Jing Zhis body was inherited from his mother, otherwise he wouldnt have been captured by the Research Institute.
They also knew that Jing Zhis mother was the worlds top killer, who went by the codename Angel.
When Jing Zhi saw that Peter and Shuyin had epted the fact that his mother was younger than him so quickly, he did not feel too good!
He still hadnt epted it yet, so why did these two look like it was a matter of course!
Hello, its my duty to take care of Jing Zhi. My Boss has given me enough in return, so you dont have to thank me.
Peter had an appropriate smile on its face as it spoke to young deer in an extremely respectful tone. He opened the door and made a gentlemanly gesture.
Lu didnt feel anything wrong. She walked out first.
Peter waited for young deer to leave before following her out of the room.
Jing Zhi was dumbfounded. He could not believe that Peter, which had always been so high and mighty and treated him so coldly, would suddenly be a different person and treat Lu with respect and gentlemanly respect!
He followed her out mechanically, even forgetting to close the door.
Shuyin shook her head helplessly, got up, and closed the door.
She knew why Peter had suddenly changed its attitude. It was a form of respect and ... A hint of fear towards the strongest.
The worlds best assassin, who started killing in his teens and had more than 30 years of killing experience, could really end someones life without a sound!
Shuyin had only been thinking about Lus identity. When she came back to her senses, she realized that it was a bit ... Inappropriate for her to be in the same room with Jing Rui.
Forget it. Its not the first time were alone anyway. I cant think too much.
Why are you still standing? Sit down, let me see where youre hurt.
Jing Rui did not move. He was still standing straight. His face was pale and his voice was cold.Did you call Jing Zhi to North America?
His questioning tone, cold attitude, and emotionless gaze instantly infuriated Shuyin, who had been feeling sorry for him.
She had not heard from him all this while and was in a state of anxiety for so long. This was the attitude he had when he came back to see her?
She only knew Jing Zhi and Peter, so if she didnt tell them, who else could she tell?
Was she going to wait for him to die and then find someone to help?
Shuyin took a deep breath and suppressed her urge to hit him. She packed her things and told herself,You cant do it, you cant do it, you cant beat him!
After packing her clothes, she took off the hotels disposable slippers and put on her own shoes. She opened the door and was about to leave.

Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui caught up with her, grabbed her wrist and pulled her back. He frowned and shouted,Where are you going?
He pulled her too hard, and Shuyin was caught off guard. As a result, she bumped into his firm chest.
Her chest hurt from the impact and the two of them pressed against each other. But Shuyin could not care about the pain or embarrassment. She raised her head and looked straight into Jing Ruis eyes.You cant care!
Jing Rui was also furious. He held Shuyins wrist with extra force and said in a cold voice,Im definitely in charge!
The little girls temper was getting worse!
He had only asked a question, and she actually dared to give him a look!
She even dared to ignore him and was about to leave!
She was rebelling against her!
Shuyin felt that her wrist was about to break, and the bag of clothes in her hand fell to the ground.
A piercing pain came from her wrist, but she gritted her teeth and refused to lower her head and beg for mercy!
She could die, but she could not lose her dignity!
If she was willing topromise, she would have been able to please her superiors when she was in the Virus Research Institute and live a good life instead of struggling alone!
What a joke! What right do you have to control me? Just based on your strength? My cooperation with you has long been terminated. Im an independent and free person, and I have nothing to do with you! Thats right, this is my room, why should I leave? Get out, youre not wee here!
Her voice was cold and her words were sharp. Her beautiful face was flushed with anger, like a kitten that suddenly showed its sharp ws, scratching people in pain and a little itchy.
Her wrist was so thin that it seemed like he could break it easily if he used a little more strength.
Jing Rui loosened his grip slightly, but his face was still cold and his eyes were sharp.I dont need any reason to care about you! Even if youre not wee here, youre not allowed to go anywhere! Clean my wounds and apply medicine! If you dare to run again, try it!
Shuyin gritted her teeth so hard that she almost broke them!
She had no human rights here!
Her heart was burning with anger, but she could keep a calm face. Even her voice sounded calm.Fine, I wont run. Let go of my hand, my wrist hurts!
Jing Rui was satisfied with herpromise. He let go of Shuyins wrist.
The moment Shuyin regained her freedom, she didnt waste a single second. She opened the door as fast as she could and walked out, not even bothering to take the clothes that had fallen to the ground.
But Jing Rui was faster than her!
He pulled her back and mmed the door shut, pressing her against the door.
Youve learned how to lie?
Jing Rui sneered. He held both of Shu Yins wrists with one hand and her waist with the other, not giving her any chance to resist.
The Virus Research Institute and the killer organization were both destroyed in my hands. Do you think you can escape with your little tricks?
If you have the ability, then destroy me too!
You think I dont dare to?
Right! You just dont dare! Didnt you try your best to protect me? what, have you changed? I dont know what secret youre hiding, but I know you cant kill me!
If it had not been for Jing Ruis strong self-control, he felt that he could have killed Shuyin at this moment.
This was purely because he was angered by her!
ording to the agreement, he couldnt kill her and even had to protect her.
Besides, he shouldnt have killed her.
Although he killed people, he would never kill innocent people.
Shuyin had never done anything wrong, and she was not a threat to him at all. She had even helped him countless times.
If he killed such a girl, he would lose his most basic bottom line.
The room was silent for a moment, so quiet that only their heartbeats and breathing could be heard.
Jing Rui suddenly realized that he had started arguing with Shuyin again.
He had never been like this in the past. He disdained to exin or argue. He liked to make others speechless. This was something he had only done before he was three years old!
Why was he living backwards?!
As they quarreled, he had forgotten his original purpose!
He didnt want to force Shuyin to her death. He just wanted to warn her that no matter what happened in the future, she had to believe that he could solve it. She couldnt let Jing Zhi get involved in any danger.
Who knew that she would have such a big reaction!
Let go! Youre making my waist hurt!
Shuyins face was tense, and her eyes were unfriendly, but her face was a little red.
She had never been in such close contact with the opposite sex before. She had nowhere to run and was surrounded by Jing Ruis scent.
He wanted to use his beauty to trick her?
Hmph! She had seen so many beautiful men, but it was useless!
Jing Rui was a jerk! She kept repeating in her heart, but her heart was beating faster and faster.
Jing Rui loosened his grip and asked in a low voice,Not ying anymore?
They were so close to each other that his breath was all over Shuyins neck when he spoke, causing her fair skin to turn a light pink.
His voice was so melodious that it seemed to be able to easily bewitch people!
His tone was no longer cold, and there was no questioning. There was only a faint gentleness, which made her feel as if she was being protected!
How did this happen?
Was she making a scene just now? Right, it seemed like they were indeed making a scene.
She wasnt such a person in the past!
She was calm, rational, calm, and indifferent!
She was not the kind of person who would lose her temper over such a small matter!
If she had been Jing Ruis subordinate and he had asked her such a question, she would have exined it to him calmly instead of leaving without saying a word.
Why did she change?
No, no, no, you can t!
She wanted to be the original Shuyin!
Seeing that Shuyin had quieted down, Jing Rui knew that she would not leave again. He let go of her, walked to the bed and sat down.Come here!
Shuyin lifted her head and looked at the tall and handsome man on the bed.
The winter sun shone through the clean ss and into the entire room. He was sitting against the light, so his face could not be seen clearly, but his powerful aura could be felt.
He was so strong, had an extremely high IQ, and had ruthless means, but he still lowered his head to her.
The only reason she dared to go head to head with him was because of his indulgence!
His back, shoulders, and hair were covered in golden sunlight. It was like the morning sun in her life, giving her warmth and light in the morning.
She wasnt sure if this warmth was because of the secret he couldnt tell her or because of her.
She wanted to cry!
Who was it?
To be able to make this powerful and cold man promise to protect her for the rest of her life!
Who had brought this man to her side?
Behind the promise was the truth that she did not dare to reveal.
She was afraid, afraid that after the truth was revealed, she would never be able to look at him like this again!

Trantor: 549690339
Seeing that Shuyin was just staring at him, Jing Rui repeated,Come here, dont make me say it a third time. My men are everywhere outside. Even if you run out, you will be sent to this room in the next second! You should be the most clear about my ability!
Shuyin didnt resist anymore. She faced the sun and walked to his side.
She didnt want to run out.
She had already calmed down and knew what she should and shouldnt do.
They were so close to each other that his face was clearly disyed in front of her.
He had a handsome nose, slightly pursed thin lips, long eyebrows, long eyshes, and a deep and sharp gaze.
Perhaps because he hadnt cleaned himself for a long time, there was a faint stubble on his chin.
However, this did not diminish his handsomeness at all. Instead, it added a kind of charm to him, a mature charm.
Such a face, so perfect that she couldnt help but want to touch it.
However, her hand did notnd on his face. Instead, itnded on his chest to unbutton his shirt.Take off your clothes. Let me see where youre injured.
Thest time she took off Jing Ruis clothes, Shuyin didnt feel anything. But this time, her heart was beating like a drum!
Jing Rui was not used to such intimate contact with others, and he was not used to being helped by a woman to take off her clothes.
He avoided Shu Yins hand and took off his shirt expressionlessly.Left arm and shoulder, grazed by bullets.
Shuyins hand froze in mid-air for a moment, but she recovered quickly and started to treat Jing Ruis wound.
The wound was not serious and was only bleeding slightly. With Jing Ruis ability to recover, he would be fine in two days.
However, Shuyins heart ached.
Had he always been so reckless?
He didnt say a word even though he was injured, and he still had the energy to ask her why Jingzhi came to North America.
She wrapped Jing Ruis wound carefully and said,Dont let your wounde into contact with water for the next two days. Dont use too much force on your left arm, or the wound will get inmed easily.
In fact, Jing Rui did not care about such a small injury.
However, he kind of liked the feeling of being taken care of by Shuyin.
He nced at Shuyins Red and swollen wrists and knew that he had used too much force. Shuyins skin was soft and tender, and she couldnt withstand his strength at all.
But Jing Rui did not say anything. He only hummed in agreement and was about to put on the blood-stained shirt.
The shirt is already dirty, Shuyin said softly.Dont wear it anymore. I bought you a new one.
Shuyin had bought this shirt for him when they were still in city A.
She had bought a few clothes then, both casual and formal. She did not expect him to be wearing the clothes she had bought.
Jing Rui was slightly startled and had a strange feeling.
He didnt feel this way when Shuyin bought him clothes thest time. At that time, he only felt that it was normal. But now, it was different. He didnt say anything. He didnt even tell Shuyin when he woulde, and she already prepared his clothes.
Shuyin opened the small closet in the room and took out a few neatly folded clothes, cing them on the bed.Change your shirt and pants. Ive already prepared the bathwater for you. Do you want to eat or take a bath first?
Jing Rui stood up and walked to the table. He finished the cold ss of milk that Shuyin had prepared and said,Im going to take a shower.
He picked up his clothes and walked into the bathroom.
Shuyin hesitated.Why dont you stop? the wound will get inmed if ites into contact with water.
Didnt you put on a waterproof ster?
There might be water leakage.
Im fine.
Jing Rui went into the bathroom.
In the bathroom, it was as warm as spring. The water in the bathtub was neither too hot nor too cold. It was very suitable.
Jing Rui took off his clothes and went to take a bath.
He would not usually take a bath like this. At most, he would stand and wash himself in the bathtub. Only women would do that.
However, he had been too tired these days. He fell asleep soon after lying in the bathtub.
Shuyin waited outside for almost an hour, but Jing Rui still did note out.
No way? Do men take so long to shower?
She always showered very quickly. Ten minutes was enough!
Could something have happened?
He fainted?
Shuyin paced back and forth outside the bathroom uneasily. She finally made up her mind and knocked on the bathroom door. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of her room.
She went to open the door and saw Jing Zhi standing outside. She looked at him as if he was her Savior.Go into the bathroom and take a look. Your brother has been in the shower for an hour. Im afraid something might have happened to him!
Jing Zhi swallowed the words he was about to say. He opened the bathroom door and walked in.
Jing Rui opened his eyes when he heard the voice. His eyes softened when he saw Jing Zhi. Whats wrong?
Big brother, you fell asleep inside? Little Shenshu is about to cry outside. If you want to sleep, its better to sleep on the bed outside. Theres a beauty to apany you!
Jing Zhis tone was teasing, but there was a sh of heartache in his eyes.
How tired must his brother be to fall asleep in the bathtub?
He must share his brothers burden in the future. He couldnt let him support the entire sky alone!
He wanted to be strong, strong enough to protect his brother!
Jing Zhi grabbed arge towel and swore to himself.
But he was still smiling. He took a look at Jing Ruis private part and handed the towel to Jing Rui.Big brother, you have quite a lot of capital!
Jing Rui sensed his brothers gaze and got angry. He said coldly,Get out!
Brother, what are you afraid of? we grew up together and youve seen me before! Did you forget that we peed together?
Jing Rui had never been so embarrassed in his life.
He wanted to break Jing Zhis bright eyes.
His handsome face was flushed red, and it was unknown if it was from anger or embarrassment, but even his voice changed. Didnt you lose your memory? Now you remember what happened when we were young!
He had seen Jing Zhis ce before, but that was when he was a child. One of them was five years old while the other was three years old. They had not developed at all. How could they be the same as now?
How could he have taken Jing Zhi to the bathroom back then?
How could he forget to close the bathroom door today and let this bastard break in!
Everyone else was afraid of Jing Rui, but Jing Zhi was not. He even said slyly when he saw Jing Rui covering his lower body with a towel,Brother, do you want to see mine? Youre different from when you were young!
Jing Rui finally lost his patience and roared,Shut up! Get lost!
Chapter 1004
Chapter 1004: Was she tricked intoing?
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin, who was standing outside the bathroom door, heard the conversation between the two brothers inside clearly. Her face was slightly red, but she couldnt help but want tough.
Only Jing Zhineng could force Jing Rui to the edge of exploding, but at the same time, he could not.
She felt very rxed and happy when she heard the argument between the two brothers. She did not realize that she was also the one who had pushed Jing Rui to the edge.
Jing Zhi was quickly chased out of the bathroom. He saw that Shuyin had been standing guard at the bathroom door. Her beautiful face was red, and even her red lips seemed particrly delicate.
Why didnt I notice that Shuyin was so pretty before?
It just so happens that only this kind of peerless beauty is worthy of being my brothers maidservant!
Perhaps, she could even do the job of warming the bed!
Jing Zhi hooked his finger at Shuyin and said mysteriously,Little Shenshu,e here. Ill tell you a big secret!
Not only did Shuyin not move forward, but she also immediately took two steps back and looked at him warily.I dont want to know!
Jing Rui was cold and distant, but Jing Zhi was theplete opposite. He was wild and impulsive, and he was even more dangerous than Jing Rui.
Shuyin felt that Jing Rui was always rational when he spoke and did things, while Jing Zhi was not only bold and imaginative but also reckless.
She didnt want to know the big secret Jing Zhi was talking about. The more she knew, the faster she would die.
Seeing that Shuyin wasnt giving him any face, Jing Zhi was displeased. Im going to share this secret with you because I treat you as my best friend. Whats with your disdainful expression? This is my brothers Secret, I dont usually tell anyone else!
What secret? tell me!
Jing Ruis voice came from behind Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi turned around and saw his brother walk out with a dark face.
He immediately put on a smile and said,Its nothing, I just want you two to live in harmony! Ill be more at ease with someone taking care of you!
Jing Rui did not think that he needed anyone to take care of him. He had been living alone for so many years, and he was doing well now.
He nced at Shu Yin and said to Jing Zhi,You dont have to worry about it. In the next few days, youll be familiarizing yourself with the forces in the organization with others. When everything is on the right track, you can rx and dont have to keep an eye on it every day.
The boss was usually only in charge of giving orders and only solving major problems, so Jing Zhi didnt have to spend too much effort on it.
Lu and he were more important to intimidate.
Jing Zhi stoppedughing and said seriously,Brother, dont worry. Leave all the messy things to me. I wont let you down!
Alright, Jing Rui nodded.
It was good that Jing Zhis attention was diverted. As for whether Jing Zhi could manage the killer organization, that wasnt important.
If Jing Zhi couldnt handle it, there was still him!
Jing Zhi came to Shuyin to ask for food. She had prepared so much food anyway, and his brother couldnt finish it all by himself. His stomach was rumbling with hunger. He tried to hold it in, but in the end, he couldnt hold it in and came to ask for food.
He carried arge te full of food and even stuffed his mouth full before he walked out.
He couldnt stay here and dy his brother and the beauty!
Jing Zhi had just carried the food out of Shu Yins room when a hotel staff came up to him and said respectfully,Sir, someone has sent you a letter.
Jing Zhis eyes widened in shock. His mouth was stuffed with food, so he couldnt speak clearly.Who is it? I?
Who would write to him?
In an era where electronic information was so developed, there was still someone who used this method to contact him?
The door of Shuyins room was not closed yet, and both she and Jing Rui heard the waiters voice.
Jing Rui frowned and took the letter for Jing Zhi. He tore it open without asking for Jing Zhis opinion.
There were only a few lines on the letter. Jing Rui nced at it and handed it to Jing Zhi.This is Zheng yuluos handwriting?
Jing Zhi read the letter and his face darkened. Ive never seen her handwriting, so I cant be sure. Wasnt she in A city? Why are you in North America?
The letter only briefly stated that Zheng yuluo was in North America and wanted to meet him. It was signed with the words Zheng yuluo.
Ill get someone to investigate. Dont go anywhere for the time being.
Jing Rui was much more sensitive than Jing Zhi. Although he had little contact with Zheng yuluo, he knew her character. She would never write such a letter to Jing Zhi, let alone ask to see him. It was not in her character.
Most importantly, with Zheng yuluos ability, there was no way she could have found out that Jing Zhi was staying in this hotel.
Shu Yin didnt know Zheng yuluo, nor did she know her rtionship with the brothers. But she could feel that Jing Zhi was angry and Jing Ruis face was cold.
Have something to eat first. You dont seem to be in a good condition.
Shuyins words were directed at Jing Rui. His face was very pale and he looked like he could copse at any moment.
Its fine, brother,Jing Zhi said, go eat and rest. As for Zheng yuluo ... There was no need to care about her! Shes just a woman who doesnt know her ce. Do I have to go see her just because she wants me to? Ive already suffered two losses in her hands, so I wont be fooled so easily this time!
Jing Rui nced at him but did not say anything.
Of course, he did not care about Zheng yuluos life or death. In fact, there were pitifully few people who could make him care.
However, he could smell a conspiracy from the letter.
He hoped that Jing Zhi would not care too much about Zheng yuluo, or things would be very troublesome.
Jing Zhi left with the food, and Jing Rui went back to his room. He ordered his men to check on Zheng yuluo and started to eat.
By the time he finished eating, the information that his subordinate had found had been handed to him.
His prediction was right. Zheng yuluo had indeed been taken away by someone, and that person was his substitute, Liao Wei.
The Zheng family had received a call from Zheng yuluo, who had told them that she was safe. She had told them that she had been taken away by Jing Rui and was now with him.
He had worn out his iron shoes and found it without any effort!
Jing Rui was looking for his body double, and he was in trouble.
If they caught him, they might even be able to find Zishan!
Andrew was in his hands, and as long as Zishan still cared about their father-daughter rtionship, she would not abandon him.
Jing Rui called Jing Zhi to Shuyins room and told him what he had found. Jing Zhi frowned.She didnte on her own, but was tricked?
Chapter 1005
Chapter 1005: The most valuable face is ruined
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo sat alone in the room, feeling a little panicked.
Even though she had called home, she did not dare to reveal anything. If Liao Wei found out that she suspected his identity, she was afraid that her life would be even worse.
She just didnt understand why the other party would send her to North America.
The other party had asked her to save Jing Zhi, but she knew very well what she was capable of. It was impossible to save Jing Zhi, and she was lucky that she didnt drag him down.
A thought shed through Zheng yuluos mind. Could it be ...
She shook her head, thinking that it was impossible.
If they were using her to threaten Jing Zhi, then these people had made a big mistake.
In Jing Zhis eyes, she was probably just a scheming woman who would do anything for her. He would never do anything for her.
Zheng yuluo was actually familiar with North America. After all, she had stayed here for a while. However, she had no idea where she was locked up. This was a small vi in the suburbs. It was a little old and a little deste.
In the evening, Liao Wei entered Zheng yuluos room and handed her a bag.These are the clothes I bought for you. You might have to stay here for a few days.
Zheng yuluo took the bag and asked softly,I wonder how Jing Zhi is doing. Can I go and see him?
She lowered her head slightly, revealing a section of her neck that was as white as Jade. It was so beautiful and so soft that Liao Wei wanted to pounce on her and gnaw and suck on her!
Liao Wei, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He sat down on the small sofa in the room and crossed his legs to hide the abnormality between his legs.
He pointed to the wooden chair opposite the sofa and said in amanding tone,Sit down!
Zheng yuluo sat opposite him obediently.
Liao Wei saw her obedience and the conceit in his heart quickly swelled.
He liked the feeling of giving orders. He liked the feeling of being high above and controlling everything!
He liked this kind of obedient woman. He liked stupid women!
Although Zishans face and figure were both beautiful beyond criticism, he only felt disgusted by a woman with such a violent and scheming personality!
You want to see Jing Zhi?
Seeing that Zheng yuluo was pleasing to the eye, Liao Weis voice became a little gentle.
Most men couldnt help but feel tender and protective toward a delicate and gentle girl like Zheng yuluo. Even Jing Zhi, who had once hated her so much, would soften his heart when he saw her pitiful appearance, let alone Liao Wei, who had always had feelings for her.
Dont worry about him. My people are protecting him for the time being. Youll naturally see him in a few days. At that time, itll be up to you to save him!
Liao Wei did not even need a draft to lie, so he casually made it up.
It was all Zishans idea to capture Zheng yuluo and bring her to North America. Not only that, she even captured Zheng Yuwei in United Kingdom!
The two sisters seemed to have a deep connection with Jing Zhi. The more they caught, the more protection they had.
With the twin sisters, they could definitely lure Jing Zhi over easily. After capturing Jing Zhi, they could use Jing Zhi to lure Jing Rui over, and then they could catch the two of them in one fell swoop!
Family Jing was going to have no offspring.
If it wasnt for the fact that little Jing Xi was so well-protected, Liao Wei would have captured Jing Xi and brought her here!
He wasnt sure how attractive Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi were, but he was sure that if he caught Jing Xi, Jing Rui and Jing Zhi would be the first toe to her rescue.
What a pity!
However, if he captured Zheng yuluo, he might be able to enjoy her!
If he could let these twin sisters serve him in bed for once, that would definitely be a wonderful feeling!
Before Zheng Yuwei was caught, Liao Wei could not wait and wanted to eat Zheng Yuwei first!
He looked cold as he chatted with Zheng yuluo, but the desire in his eyes could not be concealed.
Zishan did not allow him to touch Zheng yuluo, saying that he had to calm her down first, but Liao Wei was a little disdainful.
In his opinion, Zheng yuluo was not a threat at all. She was so obedient and did whatever he asked her to do. He was not afraid that she would not cooperate.
He had held it in for so long, and now he could finally have a taste of his own medicine!
It was a pity that he was still a Virgin, but Zheng yuluo was no longer!
The thought of giving his first time to a second-hand good made Liao Wei furious!
He stood up and slowly walked toward Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo was so frightened that she immediately stood up from her chair. She was forced by Liao Wei and kept retreating.
It was only when she had retreated to the wall and had nowhere to go that she raised her head to look at Liao Wei with a pale face.
Liao Wei was undoubtedly handsome. His face was done ording to Jing Rui s. His facial features were perfectly proportioned, his hair was neat, and the suit he was wearing was also hand-made. He wore a simple white shirt inside the suit, but it made him look handsome.
Only his eyes were too evil and too naked! It made people feel disgusted!
Zheng yuluo was both shocked and angry. She had been so tolerant, but she still couldnt avoid it?
What are you doing?
Liao Wei greedily sniffed the fragrance on Zheng yuluos body. He pinched Zheng yuluos chin and said with ill intentions,Stop pretending. Jing Zhi deflowered you a long time ago. Cant you tell what I want to do? Dont worry, tonight Ill definitely make people *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** Take off all your clothes, youre not allowed to wear a single piece!
Pa! A crisp sound was heard!
Zheng yuluo was so angry that she gave Liao Wei a tight p!
She used all the strength in her body to p her, and her hand was numb from the shock!
A stream of bright blood flowed down the corner of Liao Weis mouth.
Liao Wei looked at Zheng yuluo in disbelief, then kicked Zheng yuluo to the ground. His voice was sharp and sinister.Stinky B * tch, you actually dare to hit me! Who the hell are you, how dare you touch my face?
Liao Weis face was as important as his life!
His face was the most valuable part of his body!
In order to look like Jing Rui, he had gone through more than a dozen stic surgeries, and there were still many additions to his face. Otherwise, his appearance would change with time. Without the additions, he would only look 60% like Jing Rui.
In the past, even if he had done something wrong, Jing Yichen would never touch his face when he punished him. He would only beat him up.
And now, he had been pped by Zheng yuluo!
In that instant, he could feel that his lower jaw had shifted!
He had gone through a bone-grinding operation on his lower jaw. In order to have a perfect face shape like Jing Rui s, his lower jaw had been cut and fixed together with bone nails. It could not withstand any gravity or blow.
The left side of his face quickly swelled up, and a sharp pain came from his lower jaw. Liao Wei couldnt even care about Zheng yuluo on the ground. He ran into the bathroom to look in the mirror like a madman.
If his face was destroyed, he would have nothing!
Chapter 1006
Chapter 1006: Big brother, I did something wrong
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo was almost killed by Liao Weis kick!
She had used all her strength to p him, and in his anger, Liao Wei had also used 120% of his strength to kick her.
However, she endured the intense pain, gritted her teeth, and got up from the ground. She stumbled and ran out.
This was the best time to escape!
She had alreadypletely fallen out with Liao Wei. If she did not run for her life now, Liao Wei would definitely torture her to death!
She didnt know why Liao Wei would run to the bathroom to look at himself in the mirror like a crazy person. A grown man who had been pped in the face actually looked at the extent of his face injury like a woman. This was really strange!
Zheng yuluo clutched her chest and ran out desperately.
She had been observing the terrain ever since they arrived. Fortunately, Liao Wei usually pretended to be magnanimous and did not prohibit her from moving around. She had already seen the best escape route in advance.
However, as soon as Zheng yuluo ran out of the vis Gate, she heard a hysterical roar from inside,Zheng yuluo, Ill make you wish you were dead!
As the roar stopped, many Men in ck suddenly appeared in the dark night. They all held guns in their hands and blocked Zheng yuluos way from all directions.
The cold wind whistled, and the cold moonlight illuminated the dark night sky, allowing Zheng yuluo to clearly see her desperate situation.
Am I going to die?
Zheng yuluos body was trembling slightly.
There was no need for so many people to kill a weak woman like her!
Capture him alive! Dont let this woman die. After Ive tasted her, all of you can F * ck her! Zheng yuluo, Ill let you know the consequences of offending me!
Liao Weis frenzied voice pierced through the air and echoed in the entire night sky.
Zheng yuluo shivered in fear!
No!
She would rather die!
Liao Wei stayed in the vi and did note out at all. However, the densely packed Men in ck put away their guns and began to slowly move closer to her.
These Men in ck had astonishing auras. Without a word, they couldpletely disintegrate a persons will to live!
Zheng yuluos fingers trembled as she took out a sharp de that she had hidden on her body and slid it ruthlessly across her fair and slender wrist!
She had found the de in the helicopters trash can. It might have been from the helicopter pilots razor, but Zheng yuluo had no other weapons.
She had been hiding this de ever since she found out about Liao Weis identity.
She had prepared it for herself, not for killing.
She did not know how to kill people, and she could not kill a strong man like Liao Wei.
The only thing she could do was end her own life so that she wouldnt cause any trouble for Jing Zhi, and at the same time, protect her innocence.
She really hated it when anyone but Jing Zhi touched her.
Fresh blood gushed out of her artery. Zheng yuluo never knew that there was so much blood in her body!
Someone shouted in her ear,not good, she slit her wrist andmitted suicide! Everyone, lets go!
Zheng yuluos chest hurt as well, and her wrist hurt even more. She closed her eyes, hoping that she would die soon.
Blood quickly flowed out of her body, along with her strength.
She could no longer stand steadily and slowly fell backward.
However, the expected crash did not happen!
She fell into a strong, warm embrace!
This embrace was so familiar, so familiar that even if she was on herst breath, she would not mistake it.
She opened her eyes in joy, and a handsome but cold face came into view.
Even if you die, you can only die by my hands! Who asked you to cut your wrist? Are you an idiot?
His voice was cold and fierce, even more so than Liao Wei s.
However, Zheng yuluo only felt at ease and warm.
She stretched out her right hand and gently touched his cheek.Its so good to see you again ...
After she finished speaking, she felt extremely dizzy. She had almost used up all her strength.
The darkness swallowed her without resistance. Zheng yuluo slowly closed her eyes and her right hand fell.
Jing Zhi held her in his arms and pressed down on her cut wrist to stop the blood from gushing out.
A shrill gunshot was heard in the air. Jing Zhi quickly disappeared into the darkness with Zheng yuluo in his arms.
He could not wait to kill all those people and kill his brothers substitute who was only a hundred meters away. However, he did not dare to dy even a second. With his fastest speed, he carried Zheng yuluo and rushed to the hospital.
It was not until he saw Zheng yuluo enter the emergency room that Jing Zhi realized that he might have ruined his brothers big n.
This was because this wasnt what the n had been.
His brother didnt know that he was acting alone tonight.
Jing Zhi was very upset, but the moment he saw Zheng yuluo cut her wrist, he could not control his emotions at all!
He didnt want her to die!
Rhythmic footsteps could be heard from the corridor of the emergency room.
A pair of exquisite ck leather shoes appeared in his line of sight.
Jing Zhi raised his head slowly and said in a dejected and guilty tone,Brother, Im sorry. I did something wrong, I ...
Its fine.
Jing Rui interrupted him and said calmly,But, remember to tell me the next time youre going to take action, in case you get hurt.
He didnt me Jing Zhi, nor did he mention how much trouble Jing Zhis rash action would cause him. He just lifted Jing Zhis cor with his long fingers.
There was arge bloodstain.
Youre still resisting after being shot twice. Ive gone through so much to save you from hell, and youre going to meet the king of Hell so soon?
Jing Zhi med himself. He said in a muffled voice, Im fine. Its not a vital point, so I wont die. Stay away from me, my blood ... Dont touch it.
His blood was almost the most poisonous medicine in the world. No matter how it was treated, anyone who touched it would not live for more than seven days.
He was afraid that his brother would be infected by the virus, so he couldnt help but shrink away.
Jing Rui saw what he was doing and his heart ached.
This was a habit that Jing Zhi had developed since he was a child. He was afraid that he would die if anyone touched him, so he always kept a distance from others on purpose, especially when he was injured. He would subconsciously shrink back if anyone touched him.
He seemed to see the innocent little Jing Zhi again, isted by others, standing alone. When he wanted to get close to him, he would say,Brother, stay away from me.
Jing Rui put his hand on Jing Zhis shoulder to stop him from stepping back.Ah Chi, dont you remember that Ive already touched your blood? It was dangerous back then, but I survived!
Chapter 1007
Chapter 1007: Its fine as long as youre not dead
Trantor: 549690339
This is impossible! Those who touched my blood are all dead!
Jing Zhi thought that his brother was just trying to make him happy.
The Virus Research Institute had spent several years, allowing all of their top researchers to participate in the research and development of the virus, but no one had been able to crack the secret of his body!
Everyone avoided him like the gue!
Jing Rui sat down beside Jing Zhi and said in a low voice,Although I dont know whats going on, I was indeed infected by your virus when I was young. Even now, I still have the same virus as you in my body, but the concentration is very low.
Jing Zhi was only a year old when Jing Rui was infected by the virus. He did not remember what happened.
But Jing Zhi knew that his brother would never lie to him.
Her brother could actually withstand the virus in his body!
After the initial shock, Jing Zhi realized that this was a big secret. It was a secret that could not be known to outsiders!
Brother, you cant tell anyone about this! If others find out ...
Jing Rui nodded.Only a few people know about this. It will not spread. You dont have to worry. Now, lets go to the operating room and take out the bullet.
Jing Zhis body had been shot twice, but he was able to recover quickly and didnt lose much blood. He didnt feel any other difort except for the burning pain where the bullets were embedded.
Jing Zhi looked at the door of the emergency room and followed Jing Rui to another operating room.
In the operating room, Shuyin and Peter were already fully armed. They wrapped themselves up tightly and even wore Medical Goggles.
Jing Zhis body was too special, and his blood was even more so. Jing Rui did not hire a professional surgeon in the hospital. Instead, he let Shuyin and Peter take out the bullet for him, in case Jing Zhis blood infected the other medical staff.
Both Shuyin and Peter were research talents and not real surgeons. Even though they had studied anatomy before, they did not have much experience in cutting open muscles to remove bullets. Shuyin was in a slightly better state. She had stitched up Jing Zhis wounds many times in the past. Peter was one of the higher-ups in the Research Institute, so other than doing research, it rarely performed surgery.
Jing Zhi took off his shirt andy down on the operating table. He frowned as he watched Shuyin clean his wound with twoyers of rubber gloves.Little girl, can you do it? Dont kill meter!
You should show more respect to your doctor. Im older than you, so dont call me a little girl.
After Shuyin cleaned up Jing Zhis wound, she made way for Peter to inject anesthetic into his wound.
Her expression was calm and her tone was calm. There was no sign of nervousness at all.
Jing Zhi was relieved to see her like this.
Both of them were newbies, and he always felt like he was being used as ab rat!
Luckily, Jing Rui was still standing beside him, giving him a sense of security. Otherwise, Jing Zhi would rather have the two bullets in his body than let Shuyin operate on him.
Fortunately, the two bullets didnt go too deep into the wound. Shuyin quickly removed the bullet and carefully stitched up the wound.
Under the shadowlessmp, her slender figure stood in front of the operating table. Her expression was serious, and her movements were smooth and natural. There were no signs that she was new to this.
Jing Rui looked at her in white and suddenly felt that she was the Shu Yin He had never seen before.
She seemed to have a strong self-confidence in her field of expertise, and she exuded a unique temperament that was dazzling.
Clearly, Jing Zhi and Peter had also discovered Shuyins unique ability and were both looking at her in surprise.
Jing Zhi couldnt help but ask,doctor Shu, have you had surgery before? Why do I feel like youre no different from those senior doctors!
Shuyin didnt look conceited at all. Her expression was still calm, and her tone was t. Theres a lot of medical information in the Research Institute, and there are also videos exining all kinds of operations. I happened to watch the video of bullet removal, so I remember it.
Just like this?
Youre a genius!Jing Zhi couldnt help but widen his eyes.
Thank you for thepliment. Im ashamed.
In Shuyins heart, she was not a genius at all. She just had a studious heart. The real genius was Jing Rui.
However, Peter knew that Shuyins IQ was very high and she was very eager to learn. That was why she stood out from the Virus Research Institute and became a talent that the Research Institute focused on nurturing instead of being an experimental subject.
As they were talking, the door of the operating room opened and a figure came in quietly. He whispered a few words to Jing Rui and then left.
Jing Rui watched Jing Zhi get dressed and said,Zheng yuluo is out of danger, but she has lost too much blood and is still in aa.
Jing Zhi stopped buttoning his shirt and replied in a low voice,Its fine as long as youre not dead.
He now deeply felt that Zheng yuluo was the biggest trouble in his life!
Jing Zhi scratched his head in frustration. He had never been so conflicted about whether to let Zheng yuluo live or kill her.
The feeling of being held back was terrible! If he kept her alive, she might be his weakness for the rest of his life!
Jing Zhi was troubled, and Jing Rui frowned.
He didnt know how far Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo had progressed, but from the looks of it, Jing Zhi cared a lot about Zheng yuluo. The hatred he had for her had gradually dissipated.
Jing Rui was good at handling other Affairs, but he was not good at rtionships.
Jing Zhi would handle everything on his own. If he wanted to love, then let him love. He and Zheng yuluo were so young anyway, so they could squander their youth.
Zheng yuluo was not a high risk, but they had to be on guard against anyone using her.
Jing Rui did not intend to interfere with his brothers love life. After all, he had made his parents promise not to interfere in his rtionship.
Dont give what you dont want to others.
Zheng yuluo vaguely heard a familiar voice speaking. She tried hard for a long time before she slowly opened her eyes.
What she saw was a luxurious room with a pure European design. The walls were light gold, the crystal chandeliers were dazzling, and the silk retro curtains were very draping.
The faint fragrance of flowers lingered at the tip of his nose. The bed beneath him was soft andfortable, a little like heaven.
Before she could react to where she was, she heard the voices of a man and a womaning through a frosted ss door.
Little Shenshu, why are you so cold to me? Im so sad, am I not handsome enough?
I have to be passionate just because Im handsome?
I think youre very beautiful, and youre such an amazing doctor. The men who want to court you can line up from North America to South America, right?
Is it rted to you?
Its a big matter! Im a ... Hey, hey, hey, be gentler! Its a gunshot wound, not a mosquito bite!
Chapter 1008
Chapter 1008: A misunderstanding
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo heard the voice outside the door and finally remembered everything that had happened.
She had been saved!
At thest moment, Jing Zhi appeared in front of her.
It was like the descent of a God!
But ... Who was the woman outside?
It sounded like Jing Zhi and her were very close.
A doctor?
He sounded very, very young, probably about the same age as her! How could there be such a young doctor?
Zheng yuluo smiled bitterly, feeling that she was worrying too much.
What right did she have to care about what Jing Zhi did with another woman?
She had only been forced into bed by him a few times. They had never talked as much as Jing Zhi had with the doctor today.
The intimate physical contact didnt seem to pull their souls closer. On the contrary, they were actually very far apart.
Theughter from outside reached Zheng yuluos ears, making her feel an unspeakable pain in her heart. The wound on her wrist hurt from the surface all the way to the depths of her heart.
After some time, the frosted ss door opened and a figure walked in.
Zheng yuluo couldnt help but turn her head to look, and then she was stunned.
She had been a proud girl since she was a child. She and her sister, Zheng Yuwei, had always been the famous twin beauties of A city. Their figures, looks, temperament, and family background were all top-notch.
However, the youngdy who walked in was breathtakingly beautiful and stunning!
It was hard to forget such a beauty after seeing her once.
She had a cold temperament, a slender figure, long hair that fell over her shoulders, ck pants, and white clothes. She looked simple and pure.
She did not have any makeup on her face, and her facial features were as exquisite as the most exquisite piece of art. The most enviable thing was her Jade-like white and wless skin, which was so delicate that even a woman like Zheng yuluo could not help but want to touch it, let alone a man!
How could there be such a beautiful woman!
If he lost to her, it seemed to be reasonable.
She didnt think that she could be more beautiful than this girl. Besides, Jing Zhi didnt like her in the first ce. He probably hated her more than anything.
Shu Yin saw Zheng yuluo looking at her in a daze, so she gave her a faint smile.Miss Zheng, youre awake!
Zheng yuluo was stunned again. Even her voice was so pleasant to hear! It was clear and melodious, like the tinkling sound of spring water that could cleanse ones soul!
Shuyin saw that she was in a daze and didnt think much about it. She thought that she was only like this because she suddenly woke up and saw an unfamiliar environment.
She walked to Zheng yuluos side and raised her hand to touch her forehead. She paused for a moment before saying,Youve lost too much blood, and you still have a fever. Ive treated your woundst night. Dont use too much force on your left hand these two days, and dont let ite into contact with water. Change the gauze every night. Ive prepared some ointment for you. Apply it every day, and the scar will be gone after a while ...
Shu Yin reminded him slowly. Her voice was pleasant, her tone was calm, and she sounded very professional.
Zheng yuluo couldnt even pick a single fault. She bit her lip and said in a low voice,Thank you, doctor.
Her voice was a little hoarse. Shu Yin poured her a ss of water and brought it to her lips.Do you want some water?
Zheng yuluo sat up weakly, took the cup with her right hand, and repeated,Thank you, doctor.
Shuyin didnt hear the sourness in Zheng yuluos words. Zheng yuluo looked soft and weak, kind and innocent, and she was quite happy to be called doctor.
Shuyin didnt want toe to Jing Zhis ce to take care of the two patients. She wasnt a nanny. The doctor was only responsible for treating the injuries, not taking care of the food and living.
But she couldnt stand Jing Zhis shamelessly pestering her, calling her sister and sister. He also said that he and Zheng yuluo should not be close to each other and that a woman had to stay at his house to take care of Zheng yuluo.
And he was worried about the hourly worker he hired, so he dragged her here.
Fortunately, other than Jing Zhi who was a little noisy, Zheng yuluo was very obedient and didnt make a fuss when she woke up.
Not everyone had the courage tomit suicide. Shu Yin admired this girl, so she treated Zheng yuluo much better than Jing Zhi.
Miss Zheng, are you hungry? Is there anything youd like to eat? I cant cook well. I cant even eat a man like him, let alone you.
Shu Yins words didnt have any other meaning. She was just trying to make a joke with Zheng yuluo.
However, Zheng yuluo felt terrible in her heart.
Shuyins words made her feel that they were very close. She had never dared to order Jing Zhi around, but Shuyin could order him around without any qualms!
Zheng yuluo took a sip of water silently, but she felt that the originally sweet water was now so bitter.
He ... Wasnt he injured? Dont let him buy it, Ill buy it!
Shuyin smiled and said nonchntly,Dont worry, his body is in good condition, he wont die! You, on the other hand, need to rest well now. Theres no need to trouble an injured person like you with something like buying food.
As soon as Shu Yin finished speaking, Jing Zhi shouted from outside,Little Shenyu, do you have any humanity? Shes injured, but am I not? Ive been shot by two bullets, and Im seriously injured. The important task of buying food can only be entrusted to a healthy and beautiful girl like you!
Zheng yuluo had been upset when she heard their interaction, but when she heard that Jing Zhi had been shot twice, she was so scared that she almost smashed the ss in her hand.
She looked at Shuyin nervously.Jing Zhi ... She asked.Is he seriously injured?
She was about to get out of bed to check on Jing Zhi.
Shuyin pressed her back onto the bed with a little force andforted her,Its okay, dont listen to him, hes just ying around. Ive already removed the bullet from his bodyst night. Hes fine now. Dont be fooled by him! Lie down and call me if you need anything.
After Shu Yin finished speaking, she patted Zheng yuluos shoulder lightly and walked out.
Zheng yuluo finally reacted and hurriedly said,Doctor ... You ... Whats your name?
Shuyin turned around and smiled at her.My name is Shuyin! Thefort and The Sound of Music!
Jing Zhis voice came from outside.No, you are the tree of the shade, the shade of the shade! Youre a tree!
Shuyin closed the ss door and walked towards Jing Zhi.Shut up, or you wont have anything to eatter!
Little Shenshu, youre so fierce. Im going toin to my brother! Youre abusing me, I want to change doctors!
Thats great! I can finally leave your kennel!
Zheng yuluo could no longer drink the water in her cup when she heard the two people arguing outside.
She could clearly sense that Shuyin and Jing Zhi had a special rtionship. Their tone was casual and intimate, as if they had known each other for a long time.
Unlike her, she had lost him for more than seven years. Even if she found him back, there was still a huge gap between them.
Chapter 1009
Chapter 1009: The bad Jing Rui
Trantor: 549690339
Actually, Jing Zhi and Shuyin had a good rtionship, but they werent that close.
He had been talking to Shuyin frequently today, and the more he spoke, the more people would misunderstand. He had done it on purpose.
He had taken a huge riskst night to save Zheng yuluo. What if Zheng yuluo felt that she was especially important to him?
For her sake, he had been shot twice and even let go of his brothers substitute, Liao Wei. If Zheng yuluo knew about this, she would definitely be very proud!
He would not allow such a situation to happen!
Shu Yin had no idea what was going on between Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo, but she was curious about Jing Zhis unreasonable behavior today.
She couldnt stay here for even a minute. She just wanted to leave!
She didnt like talkative people. She liked quiet and simple things. Jing Zhi was too noisy. She had the urge to sew his mouth shut.
Fortunately, she didnt have to suffer for long before Jing Rui and Peter arrived with a lot of food.
Jing Zhi finally shut his mouth when he had food.
Shu Yin picked some porridge and chicken soup and brought them to Zheng yuluos room.You just woke up, eat less.
Zheng yuluo looked at Shu Yins beautiful face in a daze and didnt say anything.
Shuyin touched her face and asked, a little confused,Is there a problem?
Zheng yuluo shook her head gently.No, I just think that youre ... Very beautiful. Very beautiful.
Shuyin remembered that Jing Rui had also praised her for her beauty without hiding it. The corners of her lips lifted slightly, and she seemed to be flying because of the smile that came from the heart.
Thank you, youre beautiful too! I heard you have a twin sister, she must be a beauty too.
Zheng yuluo thought that Shuyin was just being polite. Although she and her sister were also beautiful, they were not on the same level as Shuyin. She was the kind of top beauty who was 360 degrees wless. She was also a capable doctor and had a good personality, so she was very popr.
She smiled at Shuyin, lowered her head, and picked up the spoon to drink the soup.
Although Shuyin felt that her smile was a little forced, she didnt take it to heart. However, she did not speak to Zheng yuluo anymore. Instead, she turned around and walked out.
She did not have the experience of dealing with girls her age, so she could not quite understand the delicate andplicated thoughts of girls. Moreover, she did not want to understand Zheng yuluo.
They werent even friends. If Jing Zhi hadnt forced her toe today, she probably wouldnt have had any interaction with Zheng yuluo.
She had already given her all the necessary courtesy and helped her with all that she needed to. The remaining emotional and psychological problems had nothing to do with her.
What she had learned in the Virus Research Institute was not to help each other, but to be cold and cruel.
She would not rely on anyone, me anyone, or help anyone for no reason.
Zheng yuluo wasnt warm to her, and could even be said to be cold and indifferent, so Shu Yin naturally wasnt that warm.
Shuyin walked out of Zheng yuluos room and went to the bathroom to wash her hands. Then, she sat in the dining room and started eating.
Jing Zhi used his physical injuries as an excuse to eat on the sofa in the living room. Peter was watching the news on TV, so it sat down with Jing Zhi.
Jing Rui was the only one left in front of Shu Yin.
At a certain moment, both of them had their eyes on the same chicken wing and picked it up with their chopsticks at the same time.
When they realized that both of them had picked up the same chicken wing, they let go of their chopsticks at the same time.
Jing Rui looked at Shuyin and pushed all the chicken wings in front of her.
Shuyin was stunned and asked, feeling ttered,Youre not eating? Youre giving them all to me?
She had always loved to eat chicken wings. No matter how they were cooked, be it sweet and sour, salt and pepper, steamed or deep-fried, she liked all kinds of vors.
Did Jing Rui not like to eat this?
She had seen him eating with great enthusiasm just now.
Ill give them all to you. What, you dont want to?
I want it! If you dont like it, then dont fight with me. I like this the most!
Shuyin held the te with both hands, as if she was protecting a precious treasure. When she saw that Jing Rui really did not want to fight with her, she let go of the te happily. Without using chopsticks, she reached out her tender fingers, picked up a chicken wing, and stuffed it into her mouth.
Wow, its crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Where did you buy it? Ill go buy someter!
Jing Rui had been in a bad mood sincest night. Jing Zhi had been too reckless. Not only had he been injured, but Liao Wei had also escaped. It would be difficult to catch him again.
However, when he looked at Shuyins beautiful face and heard her clear and melodious voice, his mood started to improve inexplicably.
He only gave her a stack of chicken wings and she was already so happy?
How useless!
The huge inheritance that Shucheng mountain left her was enough for her to eat exotic delicacies for a lifetime. A few chicken wings were enough to satisfy her. It was really silly to the point of being a little ... Cute.
Looking at the pile of chicken bones in front of her, Jing Rui smiled.
Are you trying to fly into the sky after eating so many chicken wings?
Jing Rui, who had always been cold and quiet, was actually joking?
Shuyins eyes widened in surprise. She swallowed the chicken wing with a sip of water and said,Who did you learn to joke from?
Jing Ruis face darkened.
Was there a need to learn this?
Didnt they say Shuyin had a high IQ? Why did he look so stupid!
Really, Im getting goosebumps from what youre saying. As Shuyin spoke, she turned around and looked behind her, mumbling,I wont really grow wings in the future, right? Oh my God, I ate so many chicken wings, if they grow out ...
Her beautiful back was covered with all kinds of chicken wings, braised, steamed, and fried ...
This scene was simply too terrifying to even think about!
Shu Yin shuddered and didnt dare to put the chicken wing in her mouth!
Jing Rui couldnt help but chuckle when he saw her frightened face.
This was too funny!
Why didnt he realize that Shuyin was so childish and interesting before?!
Every time he interacted with her, he seemed to find a new Shuyin!
How many sides of her had he not discovered?!
It had been a long time since he hadughed like this!
He was happy, rxed, and happy.
It was like a spark suddenly falling into an icy in, cracking the ice and boiling it!
Shuyin wasughed at by Jing Rui, and she suddenly realized that she seemed to be scaring herself. How could the chicken wings grow out after eating them?
However, even though she knew that it was impossible for her to grow wings, she still felt as if something was drilling out of her back!
Im done for. I cant eat chicken wings anymore!
Shuyin couldnt help but touch her back. There was nothing on her back, and she finally felt relieved.
You are so mean! She red at Jing Rui.
He couldnt eat the chicken wings, but he didnt let her eat them. He was really not a good person!
Jing Rui saw herining and thought that he could be even worse.

Chapter 1010: The right woman
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui suddenly stoppedughing and pointed at Shu Yins back.Look, its growing chicken wings! One, two, three ... So many!
Although Shuyin knew that Jing Rui was lying, she couldnt help but turn pale and look at her back in fear.
However, the physiological structure of the human body made it impossible for her topletely see her back.
She jumped up and ran to the scene in the living room, taking pictures with all her might.
After she was sure that there was nothing on her back, she ran back to the dining room angrily.Why are you scaring me? Im a coward, dont you know that? Hmph! Youll definitely grow chicken wings in the future!
In the living room, Jing Zhi and Peter watched in bewilderment as Shuyin scurried out of the dining room and back again. They could hear her yelling at Jing Rui, but Jing Rui just sat there calmly, not angry at all. The two of them looked at each other and saw the teasing in each others eyes.
Jing Rui and Shuyin were usually not lively people. They were quiet and cold, and it was easy to get awkward when talking to them.
But today, the two of them seemed to be very lively!
However, Jing Rui was only lively for a short while. His expression quickly returned to his usual cold look. He looked up and asked Shuyin,Hows Zheng yuluo?
Shuyin was still holding a chicken wing, hesitating whether to eat it or not. When she heard him ask Zheng yuluo, she knew that it was serious business, so she had to forget about Jing Ruis teasing.
Im awake. Ive lost too much blood and I still have a fever, but its not a big deal. However, she doesnt seem to be in a good mood and doesnt like to eat.
Shuyin spoke the truth, without any personal feelings.
Jing Rui stood up and walked towards Zheng yuluos room.
Shuyin was a calm and rational girl most of the time. If it were any other girl, she would have suspected that something was going on between Jing Rui and Zheng yuluo, but Shuyin did not think so.
She didnt think that Jing Rui would get intimate with a girl who almostmitted suicide, even if they were alone.
Zheng yuluo almost jumped out of bed when Jing Rui entered her room.
Liao Wei had left a deep psychological shadow on her. When she saw Jing Rui, she subconsciously thought that he was that crazy Liao Wei.
Jing Rui saw Zheng yuluos reaction and said coldly,Hes not me.
Zheng yuluo immediately realized that the person in front of her was different from the fake Jing Rui.
Although their faces were simr, there was a slight difference in their height. The biggest difference was their temperament and expressions!
The person in front of her was really cold to the extreme. That kind of noble and cold arrogance that seeped out from her bones made people unconsciously want to submit to her!
Zheng yuluo felt as if there was a dagger on her back when he nced at her!
Cold, murderous, emotionless, and without desire!
The kings aura that looked down on the world was still the same as when he was young, and it had never changed.
Zheng yuluo looked at him in a daze. This was Jing Rui! The real Jing Rui!
The sense of oppression and inferiority she felt when she faced him in her youth had returned.
It was clearly the same face, but when it was a different person, it immediately made people feel that they were shining!
If it were not for Jing Zhi, Jing Rui would not have said a word to Zheng yuluo. He gave her a minute to calm down and said,Tell me the situation you encountered in detail. Dont miss anything.
His tone was very calm, and even his expression did not change, but Zheng yuluo felt that she could not resist at all. Under his deep gaze, she had nowhere to hide, so she could only force herself to tell him everything that had happened, including how Liao Wei had wanted to touch her.
Jing Rui did not say a word and just listened. When Zheng yuluo finished, he asked sharply,You were willing toe to North America to save Jing Zhi?
Zheng yuluo was startled. She had only identally revealed such a meaning in her words, but Jing Rui had caught her immediately.
She had followed Liao Wei to North America without any resistance. The most important reason was that she wanted to see Jing Zhi here.
She wouldnt have been able to find Jing Zhi if she hade alone.
But if she followed Liao Wei, she might be able to find Jing Zhi.
Yes, the man said that Jing Zhi was taken away by the bad guys who caught him before. He needs my help to save him. I dont want anything to happen to him.
Zheng yuluo did not hesitate and told the truth.
She did not dare to lie in front of Jing Rui, nor did she want to.
She just wanted to see Jing Zhi all the time. Even if Jing Zhi hated her, she still wanted to help him.
Jing Rui looked at her and turned to leave without saying anything.
He had asked this question because he wanted to make sure that Zheng yuluo was sincere to Jing Zhi.
Now, it seemed that Zheng yuluo had no problem.
He could now let this girl stay by Jing Zhis side without any worries.
He couldnt take care of Jing Zhi all the time. Jing Zhi needed not only him as a brother, but also a woman who could be with him for a long time.
Zheng yuluo was very suitable.
Zheng yuluo still did not know that she had passed the most difficult stage and that she had gained Jing Ruis approval so easily. She looked at Jing Ruis cold back and thought that she had done too badly, making Jing Rui dislike her even more.
In the evening, Zheng yuluo realized that the person who hade to change her medicine was no longer Shu Yin, but a tall and handsome European man.
Shey down for a day, drank some chicken soup, and ate some food. Her dizziness was much better now, and her body temperature had also slowly dropped. With Shuyins departure, the bitterness in her heart also faded.
She tried tomunicate with the handsome doctor.Doctor, am I fine now? Wheres the doctor Who took care of me this morning?
Peter gave a faint smile and replied in English,Oh, you mean Cheryl? Shes back at school. She loves studying and has just started school, so theres still a lot for her to learn. Besides, she might be going back to A city with us in a few days, so she wants to go to school to learn more.
Go to school? Zheng yuluo was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, she felt relieved. Shuyin looked about the same age as her, so she was naturally in school.
How old is she? Did you ... Know Jing Zhi before?
Even though Zheng yuluos words were very tactful, Peter was a smart person. It also knew about the close rtionship between Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi, so it immediately understood the meaning behind them.
Are you jealous?
This jealousy was way too strange!
Peter still had a polite smile on its face, but it rejected the offer.
Oh, Im very sorry, miss Zheng. I dont have the right to disclose Cheryls age. If you want to know, its better to ask her in person!
Chapter 1011
Chapter 1011: Is she your girlfriend?
Trantor: 549690339
Peter was a ssic European gentleman of the upper ss. It maintained all sorts of aristocratic etiquette from the upper ss. The Westerners would not randomly ask or say about a womans age. Of course, it knew how old Shuyin was, but it subconsciously chose to protect Shuyin and not reveal her personal secrets.
His rtionship with Shuyin was like that of a teacher and a friend, far more intimate and stronger than his rtionship with Zheng yuluo.
Shuyin was a girl that he admired a lot. As for Zheng yuluo...Peter was still keeping its distance from her.
Zheng yuluo was not stupid. Of course, she could feel Peters politeness and distance from her. She also realized that her question was a little inappropriate.
Im sorry, she apologized softly.I just asked subconsciously. I didnt mean anything else.
Peter did not want to get involved in the matters of the young boys and girls. Itughed magnanimously and said,Its okay. Your dressing has been changed. You can do it yourself tomorrow. I wonte to help. Can you do it yourself?
Zheng yuluo immediately nodded.I can do it. Thank you for your trouble today. Thank you!
Peter said,youre wee. Then it turned around and left the room.
Zheng yuluo was left alone in the room. After a long time, the crystalmp on the ceiling suddenly shed, and then the light went out with a creak.
The room was pitch ck, and Zheng yuluo was shocked!
It was also pitch ck outside the frosted ss door, as if there was a power outage.
Zheng yuluo was a little scared. She got out of bed with a heavy head and light feet. She touched the wall, gently opened the ss door, and walked out.
The moment she stepped out, she crashed into a human wall.
The strong pectoral muscles of the human wall made her see stars, and she couldnt help but let out an ah.
Where are we going?
A familiar, sexy, and maic voice came from above her head. Hearing this voice, Zheng yuluos tears instantly burst out.
She had been thinking about him for so many days. From her initial worry for Jing Zhi, to the disappointment of Jing Zhi leaving without saying goodbye, to the fear of being threatened by Liao Wei, and to the bitterness of seeing Shuyin today. She had tasted all the vors of life once.
She never knew that a person could have so many emotions!
Zheng yuluo was not sure if she had fallen in love with the man she had been looking for for seven years, but she knew that her heart was cut by a knife when she heard that he was so intimate with another woman!
She thought that if shemitted suicide by cutting her wrist, it would be good to die. At least she would not need to know this cruel fact.
Tears fell from Zheng yuluos eyes one after another, but she tried to control her voice so that Jing Zhi wouldnt hear that she was crying.
Its out of power. I wanted to see if you had any candles.
Youre just a sick patient, why do you need candles? Go back and lie down. Youre not allowed to go anywhere without my orders! This is my house. If you light the candles and burn my house, can you afford topensate?
Overbearing, rude, andpletely unreasonable!
However, Zheng yuluo only felt that this made her very calm.
She was afraid of him, but not afraid of him.
Although he was very fierce and even a little cruel, they were already the closest in their rtionship. She had nothing to lose.
If he had not suddenly appearedst night, she would have lost her life.
At that moment, his appearance was deeply imprinted in her mind, and she could never forget it.
Thank you for saving mest night.
In the dark night, only the faint moonlight shone into the room. Zheng yuluo couldnt see Jing Zhis face clearly, but Jing Zhis vision was far better than ordinary people s. He could see the expression on Zheng yuluos face clearly with the help of the faint moonlight, and he could even see the big drops of tears rolling down her face.
She lowered her head slightly, and her face was filled with sadness that had never been seen before.
Jing Zhi closed his eyes slowly and stopped looking at her weak and helpless face, in case he couldnt control himself and wanted to hold her.
Im going to kill my brothers substitute. Saving you was just on the way. Im not tired of ying with you yet, how can I let you die so easily! What you owe me, I will slowly get it back in the future!
Zheng yuluo only had time to look at Jing Zhist night before she fainted from blood loss, so she had no idea what happened after that.
She didnt believe that Jing Zhi had gone there just to save him. After hearing what Jing Zhi said, thest bit of hope in her heart disappeared.
She was just his ything!
The funny thing was that she actually couldnt see her own position and still wanted to upy his heart!
Zheng yuluos heart ached, and her tears fell faster.
Then ... Did you kill the substitute? He looks so much like Jing Rui. Will he use his looks to do something bad in the future?
Jing Zhi paused.
He had gone straight to Zheng yuluost night and did not even see Liao Weis shadow. How could he have killed him?
That substitute is very cunning. He has so many people. Impletely surrounded. Its impossible to kill him!
Zheng yuluo suddenly remembered what Shuyin had said about Jing Zhi being shot twice today. She said in a low voice,Youre injured, arent you? Can I take a look?
Jing Zhis mocking voice rang out in the dark night.You have X-Ray Eyes? Its so dark and you can see my injuries?
Zheng yuluo bit her lip and insisted.Use your phone to shine a light on me. Let me see.
She had been brought to North America by Liao Wei, so she didnt have a phone with her. But she knew Jing Zhi must have one.
But Jing Zhi said,I dont have a phone! My injury has nothing to do with you. You can sleep on your own and Ill send you back to A city tomorrow! Donte back in the future to avoid trouble!
Zheng yuluo stood opposite Jing Zhi in silence. They were so close that they could feel each others breathing, but they didnt feel any intimacy at all.
On the contrary, Zheng yuluo only felt that the two of them were extremely distant.
During the day, Jing Zhi was so intimate and casual with Shuyin. He even called her little Shenshu, but when he called her, he always used the cold words Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo stood quietly for a long time before she mustered the courage to ask,You and Shuyin ... Did you know each other long ago? Shes your ... Girlfriend?
If he was going to die, he had to die clearly. He couldnt just leave like this!
Jing Zhis firm and proud voice rang out in the quiet night.Of course!
Just these two words had crushed Zheng yuluo.
She almost couldnt stand steadily, and she only felt better when she reached out and supported herself against the wall.
She felt as if her heart had been hollowed out, and what Jing Zhi said next tore apart thest bit of confidence she had.
After I was sent to those bastards by you, they used me for experiments every day. They drew my blood and injected me with all kinds of poisons! Shuyin was also arrested by those people, but she became a doctor and took care of me for several years! Without her, I wouldnt even remember who I am!

Chapter 1012: Specially stepping on faces
Trantor: 549690339
What?
It turned out that they had gone through thick and thin together!
They had been in a rtionship for so long! The short time she had spent with Jing Zhi couldnt bepared to this.
No wonder Jing Zhi and Jing Rui treated her so differently. She was not an ordinary person!
Oh, I ... Got it. Then I really have to ... Thank her ... For taking care of you for so long ...
Zheng yuluos voice was extremely dry, and her speech was intermittent. She was like a doll that had lost its soul. Her eyes were out of focus, and she was confused and in pain.
She forced herself back onto the bed, her tears quickly drenching the pillow.
Suddenly, she was no longer jealous of Shuyin.
She had no right to be jealous. She should be thanking Shuyin!
She wanted to thank her for taking care of Jing Zhi and protecting him during those dark days. She wanted Jing Zhis life to be better, and he would suffer less.
Shuyin had appeared by Jing Zhis side when he needed her the most, but what about her?
She had personally sent him to hell!
After eight years, it was finally her turn to go to hell!
Jing Zhi paced back and forth in the dark living room, feeling extremely frustrated.
What was going on? wasnt it what he had always wanted to make Zheng yuluo give up on him and make her suffer?
Wasnt his original purpose just to y around and then dump her?
Now, he had used the most effective method to kick her away. Why didnt he feel any pleasure at all?
Could it be that this times match wasnt intense enough?
How annoying. If only Shuyin was here. She was a girl and understood a girls mind the most. He could ask her how to make a girls heart break and suffer a thousand times!
If Shuyin knew that Jing Zhi was using her as a shield to provoke Zheng yuluo, she would definitely be so angry that she would kill Jing Zhi. She wouldnt give him any ideas at all.
Jing Zhi naturally knew how to repair circuits, which was one of thepulsory courses for killers.
But he didnt repair his own circuit at all, because he was the one who destroyed it.
At first, he wanted to scare Zheng yuluo. Unfortunately, before he could scare her, he was already so frustrated that he had no time to repair the circuit.
Anyway, he could still see clearly in the dark and did not need any light. As for whether Zheng yuluo needed it or not, he did not care.
In a remote farm in North America, Zishan red at Liao Wei with a face full of anger. Then, she scolded him,idiot! And kicked him several meters away.
There were many bodyguards lurking outside the farm, while only Zishan and Liao Wei were inside.
Liao Wei was clearly taller than Zishan by half a head and his body looked much stronger than hers, but he was actually beaten up by her until he could not even fight back.
Zishan walked to Liao Weis side and stepped on his face.
Liao Wei immediately screamed,dont step on my face! Please, Im begging you, it wasnt easy for me to get my face. If its ruined, I wont be able to help you anymore!
His face was more precious than anything else!
He would rather die than destroy this face that looked so simr to Jing Rui s.
This was the face of the heir of family Jing! It was the most important weight that he relied on to survive!
Liao Wei used all his strength to break that foot, but no matter how much strength he used, that delicate little foot did not move at all. He could almost hear the sound of his own bones breaking!
This She-Devil!
She was crazy!
Didnt she also love his face?
Your face? Help?
Zishan sneered as if he had heard the funniest joke. He sneered coldly,You dont deserve to have this face! How could you mess up such a simple task? if Jing Zhi hadnt acted so rashly this time, not only would you have died, but all my elite men would have died with you! My losses will be extremely heavy!
Liao Wei was still screaming,let go of your foot! My face is going to be ruined by you! Im wrong, I know Im wrong. You can punish me however you want, but dont touch my face!
If an ordinary persons face was stepped on once or twice, it would not be a problem at all. At most, it would be a scratch, but it would not cause their facial features to change.
However, Liao Weis face was not his own after all. It was pieced together by surgery.
Therefore, as long as he was stepped on, his face would immediately change shape.
In such a short time, his fake chin was already crooked.
Zi Shans beautiful eyes were filled with disdain.
A beggar would always be a beggar. No matter how much stic surgery he had, he would never be a Prince!
Even if he was dressed in branded clothes, it still couldnt hide the filth in his bones!
Zishan suddenly understood why the famous Jing Yichen had chosen Liao Wei to be Jing Ruis substitute.
Jing Yichen was not worried about Liao Weis ambition at all, nor was he worried that he would rece Jing Rui. He had seen through Liao Weis incapability, greed, and weakness.
Even if Jing Rui gave him the position of heir, he would be attacked by everyone, let alone rece Jing Rui.
Even if he was Jing Ruis dog, he would not be a good one.
Such a person was not a threat to Jing Rui at all! So Jing Yichen was not worried that Liao Wei would run away, or that he would be used by others.
Zishan was a living example right now. She wanted to make use of Liao Wei, but in the end, she almost got herself into trouble!
Fortunately, Zheng yuluo, who she had caught, was of enough value to Jing Zhi, who had risked his life to rescue her. Otherwise, arge part of the elites that her father had trained for her would have been destroyedst night!
She wanted nothing more than to kill Liao Wei right now. This idiot had ruined a good move of hers!
She continued to stomp on Liao Weis face. Hearing his screams and wails, she finally felt much better.
What a scum! Is Zheng yuluo so beautiful that you cant wait a day? Did he have to make a move on her that night? Ive warned you three times not to touch her, but you ignored my orders and tried to have sex with her in my house!
Zishan hated lechers like Liao Wei the most. She liked men like Jing Rui who were uninterested in women andpletely cold to women. It would only be a great sense of achievement and satisfaction to conquer such men.
Since you like women so much, Ill let you enjoy it this time! Ill feed you the strongest medicine and let you mate with a group of sows until you die of sperm! What do you think? my idea is pretty good, right?
Zishan had always been a woman of her words. The thought of mating with pigs made Liao Wei so disgusted that he almost vomited!
No, no, no, I wont dare to do it again! Its not my fault, its all that b*tchs fault for seducing me!
He was so scared that his face was as white as paper, and he immediately shouted.
Yes, yes, yes, she seduced me! She even pped me. I was so angry that I wanted to scare her. I didnt want to sleep with her! Youre the most beautiful. I dont like someone like Zheng yuluo at all! Im still useful to you, you cant let me die!
Chapter 1013
Chapter 1013: The punishment
Trantor: 549690339
Although Zi Shan did not know Zheng yuluo, she had investigated her and analyzed her personality before she decided to use Zheng yuluo to lure Jing Zhi out.
She knew that Zheng yuluo was definitely not the kind of girl who would seduce men.
She also knew Liao Weis possessiveness of pretty girls.
Liao, youre so capable! A grown man was actually beaten up by a little girl, and you still have the face to say it! It was really going to make peopleugh their heads off! Whats the use of keeping a person like you around?
Zishan looked down on Liao Wei even more now!
She was already used to Liao Weis ttery, so no matter how much he said, she did not believe him at all.
Liao Wei had originally felt that the incident was very embarrassing, but in his nervousness and impulsiveness just now, he had directly blurted out the matter of being beaten.
Im useful! Ill do anything you want, just dont kill me!
Zi Shan smiled coldly, then grabbed him by the cor and dragged him into a room. After that, she closed the door and locked Liao Wei inside before leaving.
Liao Weiyuan thought that Zi Shan was going to let him go, but he did not expect that Zi Shan would return an hourter.
Then, Liao Wei was injected with a transparent liquid.
Soon, he felt hot and restless, and a few minutester, he lost his mind.
Liao Wei felt that he had an extremely long and hot wet dream.
However, when he woke up from his sweet dream and saw the three women beside him, he almost fainted!
The three women were naked, fat, dark, and dirty. They were extremely ugly!
Liao Wei immediately vomited!
Last night, he had given his first time to these three ugly people who were uglier than pigs?
He would not even look at these ugly women who had crawled out of the garbage, let alone touch them!
No matter how thirsty he was, he had a bottom line!
Liao Wei vomited until he was dizzy. When he vomited everything in his stomach, even his bile, the three women crawled over and rubbed against him.
Handsome, you were too strongst night! My man isnt even half as strong as you. In the future, Ill be with you!
My dear, this is your first time, right? Aiyaya, Ive earned a lot! I was your first womanst night!
Lets do it again, okay? I still want to see you again! You kept kissing me yesterday and said you wanted to marry me. Im telling you now, Im willing!
If these words were said by three top-ss beauties, Liao Wei would feel extremely satisfied. However, since these words were said by three ugly women who were as beautiful as flowers, he wished he could just die!
It was too disgusting!
Liao Wei still wanted to vomit, but there was nothing left in his stomach that he could vomit!
All of you get lost! Donte over! If youe any closer, Ill kill you!
Liao Wei gritted his teeth in hatred. He knew that Zishan must have injected him with some kind of strong aphrodisiacst night to let him have sex with these three women!
Purple fir!
One day, I will kill you! Before I kill you, Im going to have fun!
Liao Weis intimidation and threats were ignored by the three women. They scrambled to climb on top of him and touched his body with their fat, dark hands.
Liao Wei shrieked in fear and tried to shake them off, but he was no match for the three of them!
Soon, Liao Weis screams could be heard in the room, as well as the rough yells of three women.
The room gradually quieted down after an unknown period of time.
Liao Wei had been forced to sleep with three women who were as fierce as wolves and tigers. In addition to that, he had fought bravely the entire night. At this moment, he was like a dead man with no strength left in his body.
He would probably have a strong fear of women for a long time.
This feeling was worse than being killed!
Hearing Liao Weis screams in the room next door, Zishan felt extremely carefree!
This kind of man should be treated this way. He had to pay a great price for ruining her business!
She held a ss of water and sipped it slowly, thinking about how to save her father Andrew.
It was difficult for her to fight against Jing Rui and Jing Zhi. She was no match for either of them, not to mention their power.
Zheng yuluo had fallen into her hands. She could have kept Jing Zhi, but it had happened so suddenly that her people were not ready, and she had wasted a good opportunity.
Since women were so useful, she might be able to use them again.
However, this time, he could not use Zheng yuluo. She looked gentle and weak, but in fact, she was so fierce that she mightmit suicide if she was not careful. This kind of hostage was the hardest to hold.
Perhaps Shuyin would be more suitable as a hostage.
The girl looked cold, rational, and calm. She was much smarter than Zheng yuluo.
Such a person would definitely not want to die if he was used as a hostage.
She needed a living hostage in exchange for her father.
However, the difficulty of confusing Shu Yin was much higher than Zheng yuluo s, so it would probably be difficult to seed.
Fortunately, she still had Shuyins biggest weakness in her hands-her father.
Of course, Shuyin didnt know that she had been targeted for no reason. She had been busy in school recently, arranging her sses to be packed tightly, and working hard to absorb new knowledge from the outside world to improve her professional level.
She was still living in her dormitory, but she had a lot of small troubles.
First, Jing Zhi would call her every now and then and say all sorts of ambiguous things to her, which confused her.
Secondly, there were more and more people pursuing her in school. Every day, she would receive arge bouquet of red roses, love letters, and all kinds of gifts.
Thirdly, Jing Rui had disappeared again. He had promised to send her back to A city, but he had not taken any action.
Shuyin avoided her suitors with a headache and went to ss. However, the moment she stepped into the ssroom, several male students in the ss surrounded her, struck up a conversation with her, and handed her gifts.
Shuyins face was cold. She didnt respond to anyone and didnt ept any gifts.
In fact, she didntck experience in dealing with suitors. When she was at the Virus Research Institute, she had met some suitors.
Her coldness could make arge number of men flinch.
Not every man liked cold beauties. Most men still liked women who were gentle like water and were like little birds. For example ... Zheng yuluo.
Chapter 1014
Chapter 1014: You are my girlfriend
Trantor: 549690339
The moment Shu Yin saw Zheng yuluo in the ssroom, she was very surprised.
However, she soon felt relieved, because some of the male students who had been pursuing her had turned to talk to Zheng yuluo.
Shuyin wasnt angry at being robbed of her glory at all. Instead, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Men were indeed fickle!
Yesterday, he was still saying that he would marry no one else but her, that he would love her forever, and that he would only be good to her. Today, he was trying to please other women.
Shuyins mentality was actually much more mature than her peers. She was very open-minded about such things and would not be jealous of others.
Therefore, even after all the men around her had left, she still remained cold and indifferent. Her mood was not affected at all. She just concentrated on taking out her textbook and preparing for the ss while waiting for the teacher toe.
Zheng yuluo wanted to walk to Shu Yins side and say a few words to her, but she couldnt even move a step now.
Her enthusiastic male ssmates surrounded her in three circles. Some of them even bought roses. They had originally nned to give them to Shuyin, but when they saw Zheng yuluo, they changed their minds and gave the roses to Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo had been pursued before, but she had never encountered such a huge crowd. She admitted that her appearance and temperament could not bepared to Shuyin s, so she did not understand why those people had shifted from Shuyin to her.
She politely rejected everyone and refused to ept any gifts. These gifts were meant for Shuyin, so how could she ept them!
Ive never seen you before. Youre not from our ss, are you? Whats your major? Which ss? Whos the teacher?
Hey, do you have a boyfriend? Lets date!
Beauty, whats your phone number?
Beautifuldy ...
The voices around her grew louder and louder, making Zheng yuluo feel embarrassed. However, she did not know how to reject these peoplepletely. She was trapped in front of the table until the teacher came and she was finally free.
However, this way, she wouldnt be able to talk to Shuyin.
She looked at Shuyin many times, and in the end, she could only sigh helplessly and continue to deal with the boys sitting next to her.
When Shu Yin was taking care of Zheng yuluo earlier, she could feel her slight rejection and coldness, so she had no intention of greeting her at this moment.
Strictly speaking, they had only met once and were not even friends. She would not be so silly as to help Zheng yuluo out of trouble.
After the teacher started the ss, all of her attention was shifted to the knowledge points. She was so immersed in it that she did not notice the movements on Zheng yuluos side at all.
She was a motivated girl. Although the Virus Research Institute had taught her a lot of knowledge in professional fields, shecked the most basic things. The people in the Research Institute couldnt possibly exin the most basic things to her, so Shuyin was very eager to learn the basic knowledge and paid extra attention in ss.
It wasnt until after ss, when Zheng yuluo walked to Shuyins side, that Shuyin remembered that Zheng yuluo was also in the ssroom.
Doctor Shu ...
Hearing Zheng yuluos address, many of the students around looked at Shuyin in surprise.
A doctor?
Shuyin had just entered the school not long ago, but she was already a doctor?
Shuyin herself didnt feel that it was inappropriate. She really liked being called doctor.
Miss Zheng, whats the matter? Youre also a student of this school?
Shuyin was a little confused. She didnt remember there being a person like Zheng yuluo in her major!
As expected, Zheng yuluo shook her head and said,No, Im not a student here. Im here to look for you. Can I have a few words with you?
Shuyin closed her textbook, stuffed her pen and notebook into her backpack, and walked out with her textbook.Lets go. Well talk as we walk. I still have ss after this, so Im afraid I dont have much time to chat with you.
Shu Yin felt very strange. She didnt know why Zheng yuluo hade to find her. She thought about it and felt that there was only one possibility.Is there a problem with your wound? Or do you feel ufortable?
She could be considered half a doctor. If an injured person like Zheng yuluo came to her, it should be because of her wound!
Zheng yuluo followed Shu Yin out. She felt a little embarrassed when she saw Shu Yins clear eyes. She wanted to ask her about Jing Zhi, but she couldnt bring herself to say it.
No... No, my wound is recovering very well. I still have to thank you for the ointment you gave me. After applying it, I recovered very quickly, and even the scar is very light.
Shuyin nodded and said,okay, thats good. If you insist on using it, the scar will be gone after a while. I guarantee that your wrist will be as beautiful as before!
She was so concerned about her health and even gave her the best medicine to help her remove her scars. Zheng yuluo felt that she was really a little stingypared to Shuyin.
She raised her head and said to Shuyin seriously,Dr. Shu, thank you. Youre the most beautiful and kindest girl Ive ever seen! Ill have to trouble you to take care of Jing Zhi in the future. He seems to listen to you more.
Shu Yin was a little surprised at how quickly Zheng yuluo changed her mind. Why did she suddenly praise her for being beautiful and kind?
Im afraid she really cant be considered kind!
At least, she was not as kind as Zheng yuluo.
As for taking care of Jing Zhi ... Did Jing Zhi tell Zheng yuluo that she had been taking care of Jing Zhi for two years?
But Jing Zhi was no longer under her control.
Her deal with Jing Rui had beenpleted and she would not be enved by Jing Zhi anymore. Taking care of him was so tiring!
He doesnt listen to me, he only listens to Jing Rui. His brother will take care of him in the future. I still have to go to school, so I dont have time to take care of a giant baby.
Shuyin smiled faintly and tried to clear her rtionship with the two brothers.
She felt that there was something wrong with Zheng yuluos expression when she said this. She looked a little lonely and sad, so she instinctively exined.
However, Zheng yuluo thought that Shuyin was just too embarrassed to talk about her and Jing Zhi. Shuyin had taken care of Jing Zhi for so long, and in her eyes, even if they werent a couple, they were more than a couple.
She felt that no one was more suitable for Jing Zhi than Shuyin.
She had to admit defeat herself, which was why she had mustered the courage to look for Shuyin today.
However, she only posted it after she came. She had nothing to say to Shuyin at all.
She was just very envious of Shuyin for being able to get so close to Jing Zhi!
Zheng yuluo nodded slightly at Shuyin, then left without a word.
Shuyin looked at her lonely back and felt a little confused. After thinking about it, she was worried and called Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi, what happened? The wrist-slitting girl you saved two days ago came to my school to look for me. Did you tell her the address? She didnt look too happy. What did you say to her?
Oh, I told her that youre my girlfriend.

Chapter 1015: What kind of dog doesnt have fur?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhis tone was casual and nonchnt! As if he had just said that the weather was good today.
But Shuyin was so shocked by him that she forgot to go to ss!
What did you just say? His girlfriend? I?
Yeah, girlfriend! You!
Are you crazy? Who is your girlfriend? Can you stop talking nonsense all day long? my reputation will bepletely ruined by you!
Shuyins face turned white with anger. She finally knew why Zheng yuluos attitude towards her was so strange!
It turned out that she was being treated as a love rival!
He was really wronged to death!
She wouldnt want an idiot like Jing Zhi even if he gave her a dozen.
Im fine!
Jing Zhi was still unhurried, as if he didnt care at all. He saidzily,If your reputation is ruined, you wont be able to get married in the future. You can be my sister-inw.
Sister-inw?
Although Shuyins Chinese wasnt bad, she still couldnt immediately understand some family rtionships.
It took her a while to realize what Jing Zhis sister-inw meant.
Your brother is so cold and fierce. He will never get a wife in this life! So, you probably wont have a sister-inw for the rest of your life!
Oh, you dont like my brother? Why?
Why was Jing Rui involved?
Were they not talking about Zheng yuluo?
Do I need a reason to not like him? This has nothing to do with your brother, so dont stray from the topic! Call Zheng yuluo right now and exin the situation clearly. Dont let her misunderstand! I have no rtionship with you!
If you agree to be my sister-inw, Ill exin it to Zheng yuluo.
Shuyin was so infuriated by Jing Zhi that her nose was almost crooked.
Luckily, they were on the phone. If Jing Zhi was in front of her, she would have hit him.
Shuyin took a few deep breaths before she could calm herself down.
She had always been a rational person. Except for thest time when she could not control herself in front of Jing Rui, she was able to control herself and deal with all kinds of trouble calmly, no matter how big the problem was.
Jing Zhi, Zheng yuluo likes you, doesnt she?
Nonsense, this young master is so handsome, only a blind person like you wouldnt like me. As long as you have a good eye, which one of you doesnt Love Me To Death? Tsk, tsk, tsk, you dont know, but Zheng yuluo and her twin sister Zheng Yuwei are fighting to have sex with me! Hey, do you think I should have a threesome? Im telling you, the two of them ...
Stop, stop, stop!
Shuyin wasnt interested in listening to Jing Zhis description of his sex life with the twins. This man would never stop once he started nagging. Shuyin had already experienced it two years ago!
I think that Zheng yuluo likes you, and you like her too. You two can clearly be a couple, so why do you have to involve me? Why did you use me as your shield?
Jing Zhis nonchnt voice came through the phone.Because...I was just having fun, I didnt want to be a couple with that stupid woman! I can even drag you down with me, so why not?
You dont like Zheng yuluo?
Jing Zhi said firmly,I dont like it! Tsk, how could I like her!
OK! Since thats the case, Ill help you get rid of her. Remember to pay up after its done!
Dont like it?
It would be a wonder if he didnt like her!
Shuyin wasnt stupid, and she quickly figured out the trick. Zheng yuluo liked Jing Zhi, so she was brought to North America, and Jing Zhi liked Zheng yuluo too, so he took the risk to save her.
It didnt matter if she didnt admit it, she would just y along!
She didnt lose anything if Jing Zhi lost his girlfriend.
The next time Zheng yuluoes to me, Ill tell her that Im your girlfriend. Dont cry when she finds a new boyfriend! And youre not allowed to settle scores with me! Youre the one who came up with this stupid idea, you reap what you sow!
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, then Jing Zhi said nonchntly,I was just worried that I couldnt get rid of her, its great that youre willing to help! However, arent you afraid that Ill ruin your reputation and no one will marry you in the future?
You dont need to worry about that! I dont need you to worry about me. Ill definitely help you! Ill definitely make sure that the twin sisters stay away from bad people like you! You still dare to y around? Alright, Ill definitely save the girl who lost her footing, so that Zheng yuluo wont be ruined by you!
Um ...
Even Jing Zhi, who had always been eloquent and good at pestering others, was rendered speechless by Shuyin.
On the other end of the phone, he suddenly turned his head and said to a cold-looking person beside him,Brother, I cant win against her. Please help me!
Shuyin could clearly hear a low, pleasant yet indifferent voiceing from the other end of the phone.I cant win against her either. Besides, shell bite people when shes anxious. Its better if you dont provoke her.
For some reason, Shuyins heart suddenly trembled slightly.
That familiar voice was like a small stone that had been thrown into theke of her heart, causing waves of ripples.
Brother, are you really my brother? How can you be so arrogant and destroy our prestige!
Jing Zhis howls and shrieks came through the phone again. Shu Yin couldnt help but smile.
The frustration she had felt from Jing Zhis pestering had disappeared so quickly that even she herself found it unbelievable.
Its because Im your brother that I want you to stay away from her.
Im not afraid of her ... Eh, thats not right. Brother, did little tree shade bite you?
Jing Rui did not answer. Jing Zhi jumped up from the sofa and shouted into the phone,Shu, you dare to bite my brother! You dont want to live anymore! Just you wait, Ill definitely bite back for my brother!
Shuyin suddenly remembered the night she hugged Jing Ruis arm to sleep. When she woke up the next day, Jing Ruis arm was full of her teeth marks.
The corners of her lips lifted slightly, and her voice was clear and pleasant to the ear.Who said I bit him? You should at least have some evidence before you nder me, right? Hes so fierce, how would I dare to bite him?
Shuyin never lied, so Jing Zhi was confused by her denial. He turned to Jing Rui and asked,Brother, did she bite or not?
Jing Ruiy on the sofa and touched his arm. There was a subtle smile in his eyes.I didnt bite.
Then why did you say she would bite? Jing Zhis eyes widened.
Oh, thats because he saw me bite a puppy!
Before Jing Rui could answer, Jing Zhi heard Shu Yins light voice on the other end of the phone.
Y-y-you ... Bit a dog?!
Yes, I bit the dog!
Wont you bite the dog fur?
Some dogs dont have fur!
What kind of dog doesnt have fur?
Jing Ruis face turned as ck as the bottom of a pot when he heard their conversation.

Zheng yuluo didnt go back to Jing Zhis ce after she left the school.
She wandered aimlessly on the streets, missing her home.
She wanted to go home, but when she was brought to North America by Liao Weis helicopter, she did not bring any identification documents with her and did not have a single cent on her. Even if she wanted to buy a ne ticket, she could not.
Jing Zhi had wanted to send her back, but it had been a few days and he hadn t.
She didnt want to go back to Jing Zhis ce. She was afraid that she wouldnt be able to control her feelings and would fall deeper and deeper.
In the evening, she sat on a bench in a small park. She was tired and hungry, but she still didnt want to go back.
A few hooligans had been staring at Zheng yuluo for a long time. Half an hourter, when they confirmed that she was alone and looked homeless, they all walked up to her with perverted smiles.
Little sister, how about ying with your brothers?
Well give you something to eat after youve served us well. Itll be a pity if you starve to death with such a beautiful face!
Hahaha, the little girl is scared! But I like it when women scream in fear. Its strong!
The four of them surrounded her. Zheng yuluo stood up in a panic, trying to escape.
However, the four men blocked her escape route and slowly approached her.
One of them, a chubby man with a fierce-looking face, reached out to touch Zheng yuluos face.
Zheng yuluo was so scared that she quickly dodged, but the fat hand missed her. He grabbed Zheng yuluos hair angrily and pulled her into his arms.
Help! Zheng yuluo immediately screamed.Help!
She regretted wandering on the streets alone. This was not China. The public security of A city was very good, and few people would be so bold as to force a girl on the street.
And this happened almost every day in North America!
Its finished!
It was not easy for her to escape from Liao Weis evil clutches. Was she going to be destroyed in the hands of a few hooligans?
Her hair was pulled hard, and several other people began to rudely tear her clothes and press her against the bench.
The four people were fighting for the order:
Ill go first! I was the one who found her first!
No, you went firstst time, and the girl was killed by you! Youll be thest one this time!
I want to be the first one to F * ck her. Ive always been at the bottom thest few times, so this time, I have to be the first!
The few of them did not allow anyone to fight, but Zheng yuluo kept screaming, desperately protecting her body and refusing to let them touch her.
A ck figure silently appeared behind the crowd, and a man who was tearing Zheng yuluos clothes was kicked away.
The other three reacted quickly and asked sternly,Who are you? Snatching our woman, you dont want to live anymore!
Jing Zhis eyes were dark. He nced at the three of them and said in a fierce voice,How dare you touch my woman! The four of you will never be men again!
As he spoke, he raised his foot.Bang Bang Bang three times, the three men immediately screamed and fell to the ground. They covered their lower bodies and struggled in pain.
They didnt even see how the other party had kicked. The speed was so fast that they couldnt react at all!
He hadmitted so many crimes, but he had kicked an iron te today!
The mensher regions were bleeding non-stop, and the excruciating pain made them faint one by one.
Before they passed out, they knew that they would never be able to touch a woman again!
Zheng yuluo was curled up on the bench, shivering. Her clothes had been almost stripped off by those people. She was cold and scared. When she saw Jing Zhi appear in front of her, she thought she was dreaming!
What was he doing here?
He had saved her once again!
Furthermore, he had just said ...My woman!
Zheng yuluo didnt know if the four men on the ground were Dead or Alive, but she thought that they must have been kicked to death by Jing Zhi.
Back then, she had been kicked by him and almost lost her life. She knew how strong he was.
Although the sudden death of four people made her feel terrified and bloody, these four people deserved to die! If they were allowed to live, more girls would be humiliated in the future!
Jing Zhi didnt care about the four men at all. He had deliberately controlled his strength so that the four men wouldnt die. He wanted them to live and have a taste of what it was like to be half-dead.
He hated it when other men touched Zheng yuluo!
He stood in front of the bench and looked down at the little woman who was so frightened that her face had turned pale. He felt a wave of frustration.
He really knew how to cause trouble!
If he didnt follow her today, would she be raped by these four men?
With a face like that, he still dared to show off. Did she think that all the men outside would be like him, taking pity on her and protecting her?
Whats wrong? you havent done it with me for a few days and you miss men? You want to have sex with four men in the park?
These words were too harsh, and Zheng yuluo felt terrible in her heart. She bit her lip hard and cried silently, not willing to say a word.
He clearly knew that it wasnt like that, so why did he still say that about her!
Why are you wandering around outside alone? Dont you know how dangerous it is outside? Wasnt Liao Weis lesson enough?
Zheng yuluos silence made Jing Zhi even angrier.
When he saw her being bullied by four men just now, he wished he could tear off their arms and legs and feed them to the dogs!
You dont want to go back? are you unwilling to see me? Zheng yuluo, Im telling you, you have to be willing even if you dont want to! Youre my woman, and youre not allowed to have any contact with any other man in the future!
Zheng yuluo raised her head and looked at the handsome and angry face under the street lights in the park. Her heart ached.
Didnt he already have a girlfriend?
She ... What was she?
Lover? Sexual partners? Or a worthless toy?
She hugged her knees and sobbed softly.
A warm coat was thrown at her.Put it on!
Zheng yuluo held her coat and did not move.
Jing Zhi stared at her angrily,you dont want to wear it? Do you want to freeze to death? Hurry up and put it on, or Ill F * ck you right here!
He would definitely do what he said. Zheng yuluos face turned pale, and she could only put on his clothes.
She put on his jacket again, just like she did in A city.
The coat carried his body temperature and the faint scent of fruit. It smelled good and warm, giving Zheng yuluo a trace of strength.
She got down from the bench and stood in front of Jing Zhi. She lowered her head and said softly,Thank you for saving me, and thank you for your clothes.
Perhaps, the fact that he was willing to save her time and time again and even let her wear his coat even when he was freezing proved that he didnt hate her as much as he said he did?

Chapter 1017: No more clothes to wear
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluos voice was soft, tender, and had a slight nasal tone. She seemed a little pitiful, but she was also cute.
Her long hair was scattered over her shoulders and was pulled into a mess by the fat man. She looked extremely disheveled.
Jing Zhi couldnt help but raise his hand and slowlyb her hair with his fingers.
Zheng yuluo was stunned. She looked up at Jing Zhi in disbelief that he wouldb her hair for her.
She stood there quietly without saying a word or moving, as if she was afraid that Jing Zhi would change his mind. She allowed him to tidy her hair as he pleased.
Her hair was long, but it was very smooth and droopy.
Jing Zhi held it in his hand and felt that it was as soft and shiny as silk.
He used to like Shuyins long hair. He thought that it would be veryfortable if he touched it, but he couldnt touch Shuyin. His brother had said that he could touch any woman, but not Shuyin.
He was very obedient to his brother. Although he would make some harmless jokes with Shuyin, he had never touched her.
Fortunately, Zheng yuluos long hair was also beautiful and felt good to the touch. He immediately forgot about Shuyins hair and caressed Zheng yuluos hair fondly, slowlybing it neatly for her.
Zheng yuluo used to think that she couldnt feel anything with her hair, but now that Jing Zhi was touching her hair, she realized that touching her hair could make her tremble slightly.
Her fingers were tightly clenched together, but her eyes were a little dazed.
Did Jing Zhi like her?
Otherwise, why would he do such a thing?
Or did he have a hair fetish?
That shouldnt be the case. She had never seen him like her hair so much before.
Jing Zhi had never noticed that Zheng yuluos hair was so smooth and silky. It felt good to the touch and had a light fragrance. He had only fallen in love with it that night.
He touched her for a while, then picked her up.
His action was so sudden that Zheng yuluo couldnt help but exim.
Next time, if you dare to wander around the streets without my permission and not go home, Ill break your legs!
Zheng yuluo was already used to his ruthlessness. Hearing him speak so ruthlessly, not only was she not angry, but she also felt a little warm.
He did care about her.
Otherwise, how could he have found her and restricted her movements?
Zheng yuluoy in his arms and muttered a low hmm.
She was also very afraid of what had happened today. If Jing Zhi hadnt appeared in time, she would have been bullied by those people.
The feeling of being protected by him made Zheng yuluo feel nostalgic. His embrace also made her feel at ease.
She really hoped that he would continue to hold her like this and not hug anyone else.
She didnt have much confidence inpeting with Shuyin.
Unfortunately, Jing Zhi didnt carry her too far before they reached his car. He stuffed her into the front passenger seat and turned to the other side, got into the drivers seat, and started the car.
None of them spoke along the way, and the carriage was so quiet that it was suffocating.
Zheng yuluo felt that her rtionship with Jing Zhi was too awkward, and she felt sorry for Shu Yin.
Shuyin was Jing Zhis true friend and daughter. She felt a sense of shame, as if she had taken over Jing Zhis ce.
When the two returned to Jing Zhis Vi in the suburbs, Zheng yuluos feeling was even stronger.
She had just gone to find Shuyin today to make her give up and even asked Shuyin to take care of Jing Zhi, but then she was back with Jing Zhi again. No, they were living together now.
But she couldnt leave Jing Zhi. She wanted so much to stay by his side. Even if she could only see him, it was enough.
Her love for Jing Zhi was far stronger than she had thought.
Perhaps it was because she had been looking for him for far too long, waiting for him for so many years that her feelings had been suppressed. Now that she was able to be with him, all her feelings burst out in an instant.
At first, she couldnt tell if she felt guilty or like Jing Zhi. It wasnt until Shuyin appeared that she was sure that she liked Jing Zhi more than she felt guilty about him.
Zheng yuluo went into the bathroom and washed herself from head to toe. She felt very ufortable being touched by others. Even if those people only touched her clothes, she still felt that she was not clean.
After she finished showering, she realized that she didnt have a change of clothes to wear.
She had no choice but to wrap herself up with two towels. Then she walked out and knocked on Jing Zhis bedroom door.
Jing Zhi opened the door and looked at Zheng yuluo from head to toe. He raised his eyebrows and asked,What, you want to sleep with me?
I dont have any more clothes to wear ...
Zheng yuluos voice was as soft as a mosquito s, and her ears were slightly red, but she still had to make her request clear.Can I wear your clothes first? Also, I want to borrow some money from you to buy some clothes tomorrow. That way, I wont have to wear yours.
I won t!
Jing Zhi rejected her without hesitation.I dont have money. I cant let you wear my clothes. Just wrap it in a towel.
After he finished speaking, he closed the door and went back to bed to sleep.
Zheng yuluo was stunned. She did not expect to be rejected.
She had worn Jing Zhis clothes before, but he had never said anything about it. Why didnt he give her any clothes to wear today?
Zheng yuluo returned to her room in confusion, turned off the light, buried herself in the quilt, and tossed and turned to think of a way.
She couldnt possibly be wrapped in a bath towel all the time, right?
Before she could think of a reason, the frosted ss door was pulled open, and there was an extra person on her bed.
Jing Zhi pressed the woman under him, wrapped in a bath towel. He reached into the towel and started to caress her slender waist.
You did it on purpose, didnt you?
Zheng yuluo didnt know how to react. She held down Jing Zhis big hand that was trying to start a fire.What do you mean on purpose?
You seduced me on purpose by not wearing any clothes and wrapped yourself in a bath towel!
I didn t!
You have sessfully piqued my interest! I dont have anything to do tonight anyway, so I might as well do it with you!
As Jing Zhi spoke, he pulled off the bath towel on Zheng yuluo, exposing her body to him.
Zheng yuluos face turned red, and she subconsciously curled up to protect her chest.
Fortunately, it was night time and she had turned off the lights. The room was dark and she could not see anything. Otherwise, she would be even more embarrassed and would not know what to do.
Unfortunately, Zheng yuluo didnt know that Jing Zhis vision was strong. As long as there was a faint moonlight, he could see Zheng yuluos curvaceous body.
He lowered his head and bit her delicate corbones with his teeth.
Chapter 1018
Chapter 1018: His first kiss
Trantor: 549690339
Although the moonlight outside the window was not bright, it just happened to add a kind of hazy beauty to the two people in the room.
She couldnt see them clearly, but she could see their rough silhouettes, which gave people unlimited reverie.
Zheng yuluos body was extremely sensitive because of Jing Zhis provocation. It had been a long time since she had been so intimate with him.
She had thought that she didnt like being intimate with him, but her body was far more honest than her thoughts.
After being stripped naked by him once again, she no longer felt fear and trepidation. She only felt shy and nervous.
Zheng yuluos corbones were numb from the bite. She couldnt help but hug Jing Zhis neck, as if she wanted to press her body closer to him.
The masculine scent filled her surroundings, making her feel a little intoxicated and moved.
It was great that they were together again!
She liked being hugged by him like this and liked his kiss.
Take off my clothes ...
Jing Zhiy on Zheng yuluos body. His low voice sounded like an order, but it was more like an irresistible temptation.
Zheng yuluo had been bewitched unknowingly. She reached out her slender fingers and groped around his chest to unbutton his shirt.
Her slightly cold fingers touched Jing Zhis chest, making him shiver slightly.
The buttons were unbuttoned one by one, and Zheng yuluo took off Jing Zhis shirt clumsily. Their upper bodies were pressed together without any obstacles.
She could feel his firm muscles, and he could feel her.
And the pants ...
Jing Zhi bit Zheng yuluos fair earlobe and mumbled.
Zheng yuluo felt that her face was about to turn red, and the heat wave was about to drown her!
She could take off Jing Zhis shirt, but she couldnt take off his pants. She closed her eyes in embarrassment and didnt dare to touch him.
She refused to take it off, so Jing Zhis hand went to her ample bosom.
He pinched too hard, and Zheng yuluo cried out in pain.
Hurry up and take it off!
You ... Cant you take it off yourself?
Zheng yuluo, if you take it off any slower, you wont be able to sleep tonight! Ill make sure you cant get out of bed the entire night!
No one knew Jing Zhis strength better than Zheng yuluo. She didnt know why, but his physical strength was surprisingly good. She didnt dare to go against him at all. If she did, she would be the one at a disadvantage.
She could only follow his wishes and take off his pants.
Without a doubt, it was impossible for her to find the exact position of his waist in the dark.
She didnt know if Jing Zhi did it on purpose, but every time she groped around, she would always touch ces she shouldnt touch. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Jing Zhi even whispered in her ear,Youve touched the wrong ce! Why did he keep touching her? Youre not trying to take advantage of me, are you?
Zheng yuluo was provoked by him and pouted softly,I did it on purpose. Who asked you to be so bad, always bullying me!
She had never acted coquettishly in front of Jing Zhi before, let alone in such a coquettish and charming tone. Her coquettish voice almost drove Jing Zhi crazy.
Zheng yuluo, youre lighting a fire, do you know that? Dont cry and beg me to stopter!
Zheng yuluo straightened her neck and said stubbornly,I wont beg you, and I wont cry! That thing of yours ... Is in my hands right now. You should be the one begging me!
There was no such thing as begging for help in Jing Zhis life.
Moreover, he had always been a strong man when it came to matters between men and women. It was even more impossible for him to beg Zheng yuluo.
It was veryfortable!
This little woman really had no experience and didnt know anything!
I still havent collected the debt you owed me! Now, you dare to threaten me? Zheng yuluo, are you tired of living?
You want to kill me? Then just kill him. You saved my life anyway. If you want it, Ill give it to you. I owe you so much, and you dont need to do anything for me. I just hope that you can be happy.
Zheng yuluos voice was soft, and when she said these words, it was so smooth and natural.
In other words, she really didnt care about her life.
She was willing to give up her life to make it up to Jing Zhi, as long as he was fine.
Jing Zhis body trembled. It was the first time he had seen Zheng yuluos determination.
She was just a delicate and weak little girl, yet she could actually do it to this extent!
Was he worth her effort?
Zheng yuluo thought that Jing Zhi couldnt see her expression, so she didnt hide it at all. She pouted her lips and wrinkled her delicate little nose. Her clear eyes were full of admiration, and her face was so charming that Jing Zhis heart throbbed.
He wrapped his arms around Zheng yuluos slender waist, lowered his head, and kissed her bright red lips.
Zheng yuluo was stunned. He kissed her?
He kissed her!
He had never been willing to kiss her in the past!
Every time he brought her back to the hotel, he would strip her naked and go straight to the point without any prelude.
Today was the first time they had kissed!
Zheng yuluo could clearly feel that Jing Zhis kiss was very awkward, just like the first time they had sex.
Was it his first kiss too?
Had he never kissed Shuyin before? Then wouldnt Shuyin be his girlfriend in name only?
Zheng yuluos heart was filled with shock and disbelief.
Soon, the shock was reced by sweetness and happiness. Zheng yuluo suddenly felt that her heart was full. She hugged Jing Zhis neck gently and responded to him with a bit of awkwardness.
Jing Zhi got Zheng yuluos response and kissed her even more crazily.
Their lips and tongues were entangled, their skin pressed against each other, and their breaths were entangled. Their heartbeats were elerating at the same time, making the two young peoples breathing Quicken, and they wanted more.
It was as if they were the only two people left in the world.
Zheng yuluos tongue was numb from Jing Zhis kiss, and her lips were red and swollen, but she was reluctant to let him go. She only hoped that he would kiss her deeper and harder.
She liked his kisses-crazy, intense, lingering, and strong!
She had heard that a man could sleep with a woman he didnt love, but he wouldnt kiss her.
He kissed her. Did that mean that she was in his heart too?
She didnt know when Jing Zhi had taken off thest piece of clothing on his body. He was entangled with the woman under him, and he got carried away by his desires.
Although Zheng yuluo had many simr experiences with Jing Zhi, this was the first time she didnt feel any pain.
There was no pain, only an endless sinking!
She was starting to like being so close to Jing Zhi.
It turned out that doing such a thing was not just pain. At this moment, what she felt was more happiness and happiness!
Chapter 1019
Chapter 1019: You can choose to sell your body
Trantor: 549690339
The next morning, when Zheng yuluo woke up from her sleep, there was no one beside her.
If it wasnt for the fact that her entire body was sore and her private parts were aching, she would have thought thatst nights intense entanglement was just a dream.
Zheng yuluo struggled to get up as if her body had fallen apart. She could not help but feel embarrassed when she saw the various marks on her body.
She didnt know what had gotten into herst night, but she had been so proactive.
Now that he thought about it, it was really too embarrassing!
Zheng yuluo sat up with the quilt wrapped around her. When she wanted to get out of bed, she remembered the unsolved problem fromst night. She had no clothes to wear.
She wasnt sure if Jing Zhi was out or not. If he wasnt home, she could steal some clothes from his room and then use some of his money to buy herself some new clothes. She would return the money to him when she returned to A city.
Zheng yuluo would never believe Jing Zhi when he said he had no money yesterday.
How could family Jing not have money? Jing Rui controlled a lot of resources of family Jing, and he cared so much about his only brother. Jing Zhi must have money.
Zheng yuluo wrapped her upper body and lower body with the tworge bath towels she had usedst night. Then, she put on her slippers, quietly opened the door, and walked out.
The house was very quiet. Jing Zhi was not in the living room. Zheng yuluo was a little braver and tiptoed to Jing Zhis room.
The door to his room was made of wood, different from the frosted ss door in her room. From the outside, it was impossible to see the general situation inside.
Zheng yuluo gritted her teeth and gently pushed the door open.
With a creak, the door opened, but there was no one inside.
Zheng yuluo was ecstatic. She immediately walked in and ran to tworge wardrobes to look for clothes to wear.
Are you looking for something or are you nning to steal something?
A cold voice suddenly exploded above Zheng yuluos head. She was so frightened that she fell into the closet.
The clothes hanging in the closet were pulled down by her one by one and piled on her body, and she was buried in the pile of clothes.
Zheng yuluos face was burning with embarrassment after being caught stealing clothes.
She raised her head in embarrassment and was about to say something when she saw Jing Zhi. She covered her eyes and screamed,Argh! Why arent you wearing any clothes!
Jing Zhi pulled Zheng yuluo out of the closet and closed the door with a bang, pressing Zheng yuluo against the door.
He deliberately pressed his body against Zheng yuluo s, one hand around her waist, and the other under the bath towel!
You took away the two bath towels. I dont have a bath towel to use, so of course I can onlye out naked!
Zheng yuluos body was extremely sensitive, and she felt weak all over. She did not even have the strength to stand.
She wanted to push Jing Zhi away, but when she reached out her hand, she touched his strong chest muscles. She pulled her hand back in fear. Its not like you dont have any clothes. If you dont have a bath towel, you shouldnt ... Not wear anything.
He should at least be wearing a pair of underwear!
This is my home. Ill wear it if I want to, and I wont wear it if I dont want to! You, on the other hand, came to my room so early in the morning without anything on. Did I not satisfy youst night?
Jing Zhi said as he pulled off the bath towel around Zheng yuluo!
Zheng yuluo hurriedly covered her mouth. Ive already wrapped myself in a bath towel!
I mean, youre not wearing anything under the towel. Dont you know that its more tempting than beingpletely naked?
Jing Zhis voice was hoarse.
Zheng yuluos full chest made him want to swallow his saliva.
So beautiful!
Not too big, not too small, just right!
Her snow-white skin and the strawberries he had ntedst night were so round and full. It was simply tempting people tomit crimes!
The lighting was too badst night, so he didnt appreciate it in detail. Now, facing the morning sun, the beauty of her body waspletely presented in front of him, making him feel tempted.
Zheng yuluo lowered her head and saw that Jing Zhi had woken up somewhere.
She was shocked and her face turned red. She stuttered,Don t, don t, don t, dont do this! I dont have any more strength ...
I was the one who put in the effortst night. Youve been enjoying it the whole time. I didnt even say that I was tired, and youre the one who ran out of energy?
Zheng yuluo was too embarrassed to raise her head. She bit her lip and said in a very low voice,Im hungry. I didnt eatst night ...
In fact, she had been hungry sincest night, but she had been so focused on Jing Zhi that she had forgotten about her hunger.
She really didnt have the energy to mess around with Jing Zhi anymore.
Jing Zhi wanted to throw her on the bed and ravage her again when he saw how delicate she looked, but he held himself back.
With Zheng yuluos current condition, she probably could not take it anymore.
It didnt matter. There was still a long way to go. If he wanted her, he could do it anytime! She cant run away anyway!
He lowered his head and took a bite on her snow-white bosom, leaving a row of clear teeth marks.
Ill let you off for now. Go and eat. When youre full, Ill settle the score with you for stealing my clothes!
I didnt manage to steal it! Zheng yuluo said anxiously.
Jing Zhi pulled open the closet, took out a white cashmere sweater, and put it on Zheng yuluo.Ive stolen it now!
Zheng yuluo was so angry that she almost stomped her feet.This doesnt count, you made me wear this!
If I say it counts, then it counts!
I can give you money!
My surname is Jing. Do you think Im short of money? Dont you know that my brother is so poor that he only has money left?
Zheng yuluo red at him and stopped talking.
She couldnt win against him in an argument!
He was unreasonable and she was not his match.
Oh, you can pay me if you want. My sweater is sold for ten million Yuan. You can choose to pay me back or ... Sell your body!
Zheng yuluo really wanted to say,why dont you just Rob someone!
However, she knew that if she continued to fight, not only would she have to sell her body, but she would also have to sell her heart!
She really wanted to say that she had already given her body to him, but she was too embarrassed to say it out loud. She could only change the topic and said softly,Im hungry. I want to eat something.
My food is very expensive, are you sure you want to eat?
I dont have money, but you dont need money, right? Why do you want money everywhere?
Because I dont do business that makes me lose money. I cant just let my brother earn money while I spend money without restraint, right? I have to find a way to earn money! And you owe me so much, I dont have any psychological pressure to extort money from you!
As Jing Zhi spoke, he leaned his body against Zheng yuluo s. Ive already said that its fine if you dont have money. You can even choose to sell your body and pledge yourself to me. In the future, no matter what you do, you have to listen to me.
Chapter 1020
Chapter 1020: I protected her because of you
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo shook her head.No, Ill give you the money. Ill owe you first. Ill return the money to you when I return to city A.
Ha! Do you think I dont know how much money your Zheng family has? Its more realistic for you to consider selling your body! How about this, you put on some clothes for me first. If you wear them well, Ill have food to eat. If you don t, Ill eat you!
Zheng yuluo couldnt help but look at Jing Zhis naked body. Her little face quickly turned red, and she bit her lip and didnt move.
Not willing? Who was the one who took off all my clothesst night? Since youve taken it off, youre responsible for putting it back on!
Jing Zhi looked down at Zheng yuluos lower body, then pulled off the bath towel around her butt.
Ah! Zheng yuluo shrieked in fear, then quickly pulled down the sweater that Jing Zhi had put on her.
Luckily, Jing Zhis sweater was big enough to cover her butt, or she wouldnt be able to show her face in public.
If you dont let me wear it, Ill strip you naked!
Zheng yuluo was anxious and angry, but she couldnt do anything about Jing Zhis rascally behavior. She could only say,Alright, Ill help you wear it.
She had been dressing Jing Zhi with her eyes closed the entire time. By the time she was done, she had used up all her energy and was covered in sweat.
Although youre wearing it slowly and messily, Ill let you off for the time being since its your first time. Lets go eat!
Jing Zhi didnt seem very satisfied. He looked like he was giving alms.
Zheng yuluo, however, heaved a sigh of relief and dragged her soft body to the restaurant to eat.
The moment she entered the restaurant, she was stunned.
The oval-shaped dining table was filled with all kinds of breakfast. It didnt look like they were having breakfast at all, but rather like they were having a grand banquet!
When Jing Zhi said that the food here was expensive, Zheng yuluo thought he was just looking for trouble. But now that she saw so much food, she knew that this breakfast would be very expensive.
The food on the table had not been touched. Obviously, Jing Zhi had not eaten breakfast. Zheng yuluo had only picked a few simple dishes and put them on her te. She had not touched the rest.
She had a small appetite and was full after eating a little.
In order to prevent hunger, she even drank an extra ss of fresh milk.
After eating, Zheng yuluo finally regained her strength. She vaguely heard Jing Zhi talking on the phone in the room, so she ate her fill first and went back to her room to sleep.
She had only slept for three to four hoursst night. Now that she was full, she felt sleepy again.
Jing Zhi was indeed on the phone in his room.
Chi, Ill send Shuyin back to A city in two days. Whats your n? Do you want Zheng yuluo to stay here, or do you want to send her back?
So fast? My dear brother, why are you in such a hurry? cant you let little Shenyu stay here with you for a few more days?
I dont need herpany.
Jing Rui knew that Jing Zhi didnt want Zheng yuluo to leave, but he refused to admit it and insisted on taking Shuyin with him.
If you want Zheng yuluo to stay in North America, Ill send Shuyin away alone. Ill give you two days to consider. Shuyins flight is the night after tomorrow.
That idiot Zheng yuluo doesnt have a passport!
I can handle it.
Zheng yuluos body isnt very good. Shes a little weak.
The doctor can solve it.
That idiot Zheng yuluo doesnt have any clothes to wear!
This ... Depends on whether youre willing to solve it.
My dear brother ...
Theres no use in calling me brother. Its best to send Shuyin and Zheng yuluo back together. North America is much more dangerous than city A. I cant let Shuyin take the risk here. As for Zheng yuluo, I respect your wishes.
Jing Ruis voice sounded cold, but he was actually smiling.
When Jing Zhi risked his life to save Zheng yuluo that day, he knew that Jing Zhis feelings for Zheng yuluo were not ordinary.
Now, it seemed that it was indeed so.
He was actually not worried about Zheng yuluos safety, because to Zishan, Zheng yuluo was of much less value. The most valuable person was Shu Yin.
That was why he had decided to send Shuyin away.
As for Zheng yuluo, he had only been testing Jing Zhi on purpose. He didnt expect Jing Zhi to be unable to hide and expose himself.
Jing Rui could not help but shake his head. This was not good. Jing Zhi liked to be straightforward and not scheming. He would be at a disadvantage if he took control of the entire killer organization.
Lu was as straightforward as he was.
It seemed that he had to send another capable man to be Jing Zhis military counselor.
Jing Zhi had no idea that his most trusted brother was ying tricks with him. He deliberately wanted to see his attitude toward Zheng yuluo.
If Jing Rui had asked him directly whether he liked Zheng yuluo, he would have said no.
However, his true thoughts were exposed when he changed to this method.
Jing Zhi was in a dilemma.
He wanted to send Zheng yuluo back to city A to make her safer, but he also wanted to keep her by his side. He would be in a good mood when he teased her from time to time and saw her cry orugh.
Without her, his life would be quite boring!
He thought for a moment and suddenly realized a problem.
Thats not right, brother. Why are you protecting Shuyin so much?
After a moment of silence, Jing Rui said,You dont need to know that. You just need to know that you cant touch her in the future and do your best to protect her.
Jing Zhi was stunned,huh? Isnt it enough for you to protect her? I have to protect her too? Which Great Buddha from the West actually needs us two brothers to protect him together! Isnt the pay a little too high?
Listen to me and dont ask too much.
That wont do, I have to ask clearly! Otherwise, what if I identally fall in love with her one day? Brother, tell me the truth, do you like her? Ive never seen you treat other women so well! If youre interested in little Shenshu, I wont fight with you!
Jing Rui felt a headacheing on. He should not have made the call.
He seemed to have dug a hole for himself!
Im not interested in her, and youre not allowed to have any bad thoughts about her. You can choose from all the women in the world, except for Shuyin. You cant touch her.
Big brother, your words make my imagination run wild and cause a huge misunderstanding!
Jing Zhi rolled his eyes as hey in bed.You have to tell me the real reason. Otherwise, Ill go talk to Shuyin about life tomorrow and discuss her body structure! If she doesnt agree, Ill force myself on her! Anyway, Im so strong that she cant beat me! Lets cook the uncooked rice first, so we dont have to be afraid of her running away in the future!
Jing Rui felt that he had spoiled Jing Zhi.
He was used to doing whatever he wanted. If he really hurt Shuyin, then things would be terrible.
Jing Rui did not speak for a long time before he finally said,Im protecting her because of you.

Chapter 1021: A secret that can not be told
Trantor: 549690339
No way! Brother, if you like her, dont drag me into it!
Jing Zhi found it hard to believe. What was his rtionship with Shuyin? At most, she had taken care of him for a while as a doctor two years ago.
Was it because she had taken care of him that her brother had to protect her forever?
This reason was too far-fetched!
Her brother didnt seem like someone with such a low IQ!
No, its true,
Jing Ruis deep voice sounded in Jing Zhis ears. There was a firm power in his voice that made Jing Zhi calm down and stopughing.
Jing Zhi frowned,brother, whats going on? If its really rted to me, Ill definitely protect her in the future.
Do you still remember the hypnotist who hypnotized you?
Of course I remember him. He helped me recover a lot of my memories, of course I remember him! This matter had something to do with him? Didnt hemit suicide?
Jing Zhi had witnessed Shu Chengshans suicide.
He had wanted to stop her, but it was toote.
At that time, Jing Zhi had felt sorry for him for a long time and didnt understand why he hadmitted suicide.
That hypnotist is called Shucheng Shan.
Jing Zhi was a little surprised to hear this name.Shu? Shuyin ... She cant be ...
Yes, thats right. Shuyin is Shu Chengshans daughter, his only daughter.
It was one of the few things that made Jing Rui feel a little upset.
Originally, protecting Shuyin wasnt a big deal. Even if Shuyin found out the truth one day and wanted to take revenge, it wouldnt be a big deal. Killing an ordinary young girl was as easy as turning over his hand for an assassin like him.
However, things had deviated from Jing Ruis n.
He was afraid that it would be very difficult for him to make a move on Shuyin.
Therefore, he hoped that Shuyin would never know the secret of Shucheng mountains death, never!
Jing Rui slowly told her about the deal he had made with Shucheng mountain.Shu Chengshan is the worlds top hypnotist and also an assassin. He had been studying hypnosis for decades. For those with weak resistance, he could hypnotize them with a look and a hand gesture. Zishan once hired him to use hypnosis to kill me, and I almost fell for it. Later on, hemitted suicide because I forced him to.
His hypnotism can make people lose their memories, but it can also restore their memories. He didnt want to hypnotize you at first, but I used Shuyin as a threat and he agreed to help you recover your memory. In return, I need to protect Shuyin for the rest of her life.
Jing Zhi was dumbfounded.
He had never thought that there would be such aplicated and twisted rtionship! This matter was actually rted to Zishan!
So brother really protected Shuyin because of him!
The story was so heavy that even a straightforward person like Jing Zhi found it a little tricky to tell.
He was silent for a while before he started tofort Jing Rui.Brother, you cant be med for what happened at Shucheng mountain. He wanted to kill you, so you cant just sit and wait. When he was hired by Zishan, he should have taken the risk of being killed instead.
Jing Zhi had seen Shu Chengshans hypnotism skills and was shocked by his powerful hypnotism skills.
Especially that kind of deep hypnosis, it could really dig out the biggest secret hidden in a persons heart!
He was a killer and a person who had been strictly trained. His willpower and resistance to hypnosis were very strong, but in the hands of Shu Chengshan, his resistance could onlyst for fifteen minutes.
Otherwise, he wouldnt have been able to recall thosepletely forgotten memories in the deep hypnosis!
Such a powerful person had gone to kill his brother, yet he had not died. This was all thanks to his brothers strength. Otherwise, he would have lost his brother forever.
Jing Rui nodded and said to Jing Zhi, Dont let Shuyin know about this. I promised Shu Chengshan to take care of her for a lifetime and not let her be bullied, so I have to keep my promise. Unless She Wants Revenge, then the agreement between me and Shucheng Shan will be void. This is why Shucheng Shan didnt want me to do it and chose tomit suicide.
Jing Rui had never regretted killing Shucheng Shan.
Until today, he had no regrets.
Because Shu Chengshan also had a strong desire to kill him, he had received a huge reward from Zi Shan. As long as he was alive, he had toplete the task.
Jing Rui could not let such a powerful opponent live forever. That would be equivalent to handing his life to Zishan.
Brother, dont worry. I wont let Shuyin know. She ... Did she not know that her father was still alive?
Jing Zhi remembered that both Peter and Shuyin had mentioned that Shuyins parents had died when she was young and that she had been sent to the virology research Institute as an orphan.
Yes, she didnt know that Shucheng Shan was still alive, and Shucheng Shan never went to find her.
Jing Zhi heaved a sigh of relief. Thats good. Its easy to hide this matter. Ive known Shuyin for so long, but Ive never heard her talk about her parents. She shouldnt doubt her fathers life.
After hanging up, Jing Zhi suddenly felt sorry for Shuyin.
She had always thought that she was an orphan, but in reality, her father was alive. Now, she was really an orphan.
And the reason she became an orphan was actually because of him and her brother.
That Shu Chengshan was really blind, why did he kill his brother for no reason! Wasnt that courting death!
This person deserved to die!
Fortunately, Shuyin wasnt like him. Otherwise, they wouldnt even be friends!
At night, Jing Zhi called Shuyin. His tone was frivolous and yful as usual.Hey, little Shenshu, are you free tonight? Big brother will treat you to a big meal!
Shuyin held her phone in one hand and flipped through the pages of her book with the other. She said decisively,Im not going! Those who are unountably solicitous are either evil or thieves!
Jing Zhi raised his eyebrows. A womans intuition was quite urate.
He had listened to his brothers words today and felt that he had to protect Shuyin well. That was why he had called her.
Also, please be clear that Im older than you, so you should call me sister!
Oh, right, right, right! If Im wrong, then Ill do it again.
Jing Zhi was very good-tempered and epted her advice.
Sister-inw, Ill treat you to a big meal!
Shuyin closed her eyes helplessly. He might as well call her sister!
You have something to do? If theres nothing, say it. If not, Im hanging up!
Of course theres something! Im treating you to a meal, and you wont do me the honor? Dont tell me Im not handsome enough?
No reward! You must be using me as a shield to anger Zheng yuluo! If you like her, then just tell her. Why do you keep using other women to anger her? This was a very childish move! And youll easily disappoint her.
Jing Zhi couldnt help but look up at the sky and sigh,fine, I tricked her oncest time, and I wont be able to gain her trust again! Today, he was definitely sincere in treating her to a good meal!
Chapter 1022
Chapter 1022: I have a boyfriend!
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi swore to deny it,Im not using you, or Ill die a horrible death! I wont be able to find a girlfriend in the future!
As he spoke, he suddenly had a sh of inspiration and said,Actually, I invited you here because my brother wants to discuss with you about returning to A city!
Oh, okay. Ill be there in a while.
After Shuyin finished speaking, she hung up the phone.
Jing Zhi was furious at home.
No matter how much he begged Shuyin, she wouldnte. The moment he mentioned his brother, she immediately agreed!
They both had the same surname, but why was the treatment so different?
His passion and a trace of guilt were all tormented away by Shuyin.
However, Jing Zhi still prepared a variety of dishes. Of course, he didnt make them. He found a chef to make them ording to Shuyins preferences.
Zheng yuluo watched as he seriously instructed the chef to cook this and that, but none of the food prepared was to her taste. She knew in her heart that tonights dinner was prepared for someone else.
She held it in again and again, and did not ask who it was prepared for.
There were more desserts and European dishes for dinner, and it felt like they were prepared for girls.
Zheng yuluo felt as if her heart had been pricked by a needle, and it was so painful that blood was slowly flowing out.
Sure enough, at Seveno clock in the evening, an extremely beautiful woman came to the appointment with an indifferent expression.
Today, Shuyin was wearing an Academy-style ck and white id dress, ck stockings, a white wool jacket, and dark brown leather boots. Her long hair fell over her shoulders, her lips were red, and her teeth were white. She was holding a thick book in front of her chest and carrying a backpack. She looked like a pure and young campus Belle.
No, she didnt look like her. She was.
Zheng yuluo looked at Shu Yin and wondered if she should also go to school.
Because of Jing Zhi, she had dyed her studies a lot. It wasnt that she didnt like studying. She used to be the top student in her ss, but before she found Jing Zhi, she didnt have the heart to study.
There was probably no one who wouldnt like a girl like Shuyin, who had unparalleled beauty and was hardworking.
Even she was starting to like her!
Doctor Shu, youre here!
Zheng yuluo didnt have the slightest intention ofpeting with Shuyin. She knew that if Jing Zhi didnt like her, no matter how she acted or fought, it would be useless.
Even if Shuyin wasnt around, Jing Zhi would still be with another girl.
So, she knew that it wasnt Shuyins fault.
If there was a mistake, it should be her own fault!
She was the one who pushed Jing Zhi out of the room.
Shu Yin was sensitive enough to sense the change in Zheng yuluos attitude. She was very confused, but she smiled lightly.You can call me Shuyin. Ill call you yuluo from now on. Otherwise, itll seem like were not close!
She didnt know why Zheng yuluo had changed her attitude towards her, but since she was good to her, she wouldnt be cold to her.
Moreover, Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi were likely to be a couple in the future. Jing Zhi was one of her few friends, and she couldnt have a falling out with Jing Zhis girlfriend.
Moreover, Zheng yuluo looked so innocent and innocent. It would be good to be friends with her.
Zheng yuluo was dazzled by Shuyins smile. She never knew that a girl could look so good when she smiled!
Shuyin, youre so beautiful!
Thank you! Youre very pretty too!
This was the second time Zheng yuluo hadplimented her so formally. Shuyin couldnt help but sigh in her heart. Did Jing Zhi use her to provoke Zheng yuluo again?
As soon as she thought of this, Jing Zhi pounced on her and hugged her. He shouted exaggeratedly,Little Shenyu, you came so quickly! Ive missed you so much, did you miss me?
Shu Yin used the book in front of her chest to separate herself from Jing Zhi. She saw Zheng yuluos face turn pale quickly and felt that she had to do something.
She pushed Jing Zhi away and said to Zheng yuluo,Yuluo, dont misunderstand. Im just friends with Jing Zhi. Dont listen to his nonsense. Im not his girlfriend! Hes just teasing you!
Zheng yuluo had never expected to hear Shuyin deny it so bluntly!
She couldnt help but look at Jing Zhi, hoping that he would say something along the lines of,Im just teasing you.
Unfortunately, Jing Zhi hugged Shuyin by force and said shamelessly,Who said it wasn t? Youre my girlfriend! It doesnt matter if you dont admit it. Im treating you as my girlfriend anyway!
Shuyin picked up a book and threw it at Jing Zhi.Why dont you stop! I dont like him. I ... I ... I have a boyfriend a long time ago!
In a moment of desperation, Shuyin had no choice but to make up a boyfriend that didnt exist!
She didnt want to take the me for Jing Zhi. He was obviously interested in the girl, but he refused to admit it. The girl obviously liked him too, but he was pushing her away!
Shu Yin didnt know about the past grudges between Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi. She thought that Jing Zhi was too rebellious and that was why he was doing this.
Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi were both shocked by Shu Yins words and said in unison,You have a boyfriend?
Shu Yin looked at the two of them and couldnt help but want to sigh again.
Sigh, he still said that he didnt like the other party. Look, even the words he said were exactly the same. If this wasnt telepathy, what was it?
Yes, I have a boyfriend! Jing Zhi, you cant make fun of me anymore. My boyfriend wont be happy if he finds out!
Shuyin said this very seriously, but Jing Zhi was very suspicious.Little Shenshu, youre not a good child when you lie! Ive known you for so long, howe I didnt know you had a boyfriend? What was his name? How old are you? What does he do? When did you two meet? How long have you been dating? He ...
Was this a household check?!
Shuyin interrupted Jing Zhi,why should I tell you? Youre not allowed to ask anymore, just know that I have a boyfriend!
Who knows if youre making it up? If youre lying, I cant let you fool me like this!
Wouldnt it be better to lie? Because this means that I dont like you!
But I like you! Jing Zhi didnt feel any pressure when confessing to her. He had always liked Shu Yin. He thought that she was a straightforward girl with a good personality and good looks. She was good in every way.
If it wasnt for the fact that his brother didnt allow him to touch Shuyin, he would have wanted to develop a rtionship with her.
Shuyins face turned pale from anger, but she reacted quickly and replied,Didnt you say yesterday that youll only love yuluo in this life?
When did I say that? Jing Zhi was stunned.
Yuluo, you heard that? He dares to say it, but he doesnt dare to admit it. He likes this one today and likes that one tomorrow. Such a man is not worthy of entrusting your life to. Leave him quickly!
Chapter 1023
Chapter 1023: Jing Ruis preference
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo felt a little dizzy. She did not know who to believe anymore. What they said waspletely opposite!
Shuyin didnt seem to have any feelings for Jing Zhi, and Jing Zhi didnt seem to like Shuyin as much as he said he did.
The two of them bickered like a couple, but there was no ambiguity in their eyes.
Did Jing Zhi really say that she was the only one he would love?
Zheng yuluo didnt quite believe it. In her heart, Jing Zhi would never say such mushy words.
But she had never considered leaving Jing Zhi.
Shuyin, you must be hungry. Come in and eat, the food will get cold!
Zheng yuluo smiled at Shu Yin and invited her in.
She didnt feel anything, but Shu Yin felt that Zheng yuluo was like the mistress of the house.
She heaved a sigh of relief, but refused to go in.
Jing Zhi, didnt you say that your brother was going to discuss sending me back to A city? Where is he?
Shuyin looked around but did not see Jing Rui. She suddenly realized that she had been tricked. She red at Jing Zhi and said unhappily,Youre not lying to me, right? You have to know that the consequences of lying to me are very serious! Its so serious that you might not be able to get a wife in this lifetime!
Theres no such thing! My brother will be here soon, hes busy!
Jing Zhi denied it as if nothing had happened.
Zheng yuluo, take Shuyin out for dinner first. You must take good care of her! Ill call my brother and ask him to hurry!
He turned around and ran into his room. He called Jing Rui.
Brother, my real brother! Come and save me! Little Shenyu is going to lose his temper, I cant hold it anymore,e quickly!
Jing Rui frowned on the other end of the phone.Shuyin went to your ce?
Yeah, theyre here! I tricked you intoing here! I wanted to treat her to a meal, but she refused toe. I had to lie to her and tell her that you were here, and she came! Now that she hasnt seen you, she wants to take revenge on me!
Youre the one who made this mess, clean it up yourself!
Jing Rui had no interest in cleaning up his brothers mess. He was already being kind by not getting angry at his brother for seducing ... No, attracting Shuyin.
Brother, you cant just leave me alone! Im your brother!
No, hes just a younger cousin.
Aiya, brother, why are you talking about Blood Brothers and cousins at this time! I saw that she didnt have a father, so I wanted to take care of her. Strictly speaking, Im taking care of her on your behalf! If you didnte tonight, I might not be able to control myself and have sex with her tonight!
Jing Ruis expression turned cold and he said in a cold voice,Dont touch her!
Jing Zhi was startled by his brothers coldness. Jing Rui had never spoken to him in such a cold tone before.
Its fine if you dont move, but you have toe! Didnt you say you were going to send her back to A city? Im here to discuss it with her!
Jing Ruis nerves were almost worn out by his brothers shameless pestering.
Why would he need to discuss with Shuyin to send her back to A city?
He had already nned it out, and Shuyin only needed to follow his arrangements.
Discuss?
There was no such word in his dictionary!
Alright, Ill go.
In the end, Jing Rui chose topromise. There were few people in the world who could make himpromise, but Jing Zhi was the easiest one.
Jing Rui changed his clothes and left the hotel after he hung up the phone.
He only had a small vi in North America. After giving it to Jing Zhi, he would be staying in the hotel for the time being. He was still looking for a new house, but it would take a long time to buy it and renovate it.
On the way, he suddenly remembered that Shuyin liked to eat chicken wings. After thinking for a while, he finally went to the authentic restaurant and ordered a chicken wing for takeaway before driving off.
He had never specially bought anything for anyone before. Today was the first time.
This feeling was a little strange, but it was so natural.
He just wanted to buy it for her, so he went to buy it.
He didnt seem to notice that his habits were gradually changing. For Shuyin, he had already made an exception many times.
When they arrived at Jing Zhis ce and saw the chicken wings he had bought, the three of them were stunned.
All four of them knew that Shuyin was the only one who loved chicken wings!
Jing Zhi liked oranges and beef, Zheng yuluo liked vegetables, and Jing Rui was not picky about his food.
Three pairs of eyes were fixed on Jing Rui, but he was still calm andposed, without a trace of panic or embarrassment.
This made the three people who suspected that he had ulterior motives feel that they had misunderstood him.
Shuyin could not believe that Jing Rui had bought the Golden and fragrant chicken wings for her.
What was going on today?
Jing Zhi insisted on treating her to a meal, and even Jing Rui bought her something nice to eat.
Did you ... Buy this for me?
Shuyin went up to Jing Rui and asked him with her big eyes.
Jing Rui lowered his head slightly and could see Shuyins fair neck and delicate corbones.
He shifted his gaze away and nodded indifferently,Yes. You dont like it?
As he spoke, he reached out to take the lunchbox from Shuyin.
Shuyin immediately hugged the chicken wing and retreated, Youve already given it to me, youre not allowed to take it back!
Arent you afraid that youll grow chicken wings on your back after eating it?
I won t!
Shuyin didnt want to be fooled again. She was already embarrassed for being childish once, and she couldnt let Jing Ruiugh at her again.
She held the chicken wings and ran to the dining room with a smile. She pulled Zheng yuluo over to share the food with her.
Zheng yuluo was actually more shocked than Shuyin. She knew better than Shuyin how cold and heartless Jing Rui was. He had been like this since he was young, and he became even colder as he grew up.
She had never expected that Jing Rui would remember that Shuyin loved chicken wings and had even bought them for her.
However, judging from Jing Ruis indifferent attitude towards Shuyin, it didnt seem like he had any other feelings for her.
Was she overthinking?
No matter what, she would never eat the chicken wings that Jing Rui had bought for Shuyin.
Moreover, she didnt like to eat meat.
Zheng yuluo rejected him tactfully. She smiled and said,You can eat it yourself. I still prefer to eat vegetarian food. And there are so many dishes tonight, Im going to save my stomach for a good taste!
Jing Zhi had prepared a scrumptious dinner that day, and the aroma was overflowing. Zheng yuluo could have eaten something else, so Shu Yin didnt try to persuade her.
Jing Zhi had actually asked the chef to prepare chicken wings for him, but they were not as good as the ones Jing Rui had bought. The meat Jing Rui had bought was fresh and tender, with a crispy skin, which Shu Yin loved.
The four of them sat together for dinner. Jing Zhi preferred meat, Zheng yuluo preferred vegetables, and Jing Rui was not picky about meat and vegetables. Only Shuyin was drinking chicken soup and eating the box of chicken wings Jing Rui had bought for her.
She didnt even touch the other dishes.
Chapter 1024
Chapter 1024: Shuyins suitor
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi took a bite of the steak and muttered to Jing Rui,Brother, the shade of the tree is quite easy to raise, just eating chicken wings is enough. Why dont you consider raising her? Otherwise, what if she gets bullied by those bad men after she marries someone else?
Jing Rui knocked his head with a spoon.Shut up and eat!
The brothers voices were very low. Zheng yuluo and Shu Yins hearing was far worse than theirs, so they could not hear what they were saying.
But when Shuyin looked up, she met Jing Ruis eyes.
His gaze was calm and distant, with a unique charm that went straight into Shu Yins heart.
Her heart beat faster and she quickly lowered her head to drink the chicken soup.
However, she drank it too quickly and choked.
Cough, cough, cough!
Jing Rui took a look at her and handed her a tissue.How old are you? You dont even know how to drink soup?
Shuyins face turned red, and it was unknown if it was from choking or from embarrassment.
She grabbed a tissue and wiped her mouth ufortably.
Jing Rui handed it over naturally, and Shu Yin epted it naturally. They did not notice that Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo were already petrified.
Both of them knew Jing Ruis personality and his family background.
He had grown up with a golden spoon in his mouth and had never served anyone before. It was always others who served him. He was extremely noble and very proud. He rarely spoke nonsense to others.
But today, he was actually concerned that Shuyin would choke! He even passed her a tissue andughed at her!
How could this be possible?
He was clearly the kind of person who would not even look at someone who died at his feet!
Didnt he hate talking nonsense?
After he came here today, he only spoke to Shuyin!
Even when Jing Zhi spoke to him, he only said a few words.
Zheng yuluo felt as if she had discovered an incredible secret. She was so scared that her palms were sweating, but she did not dare to say a word and just lowered her head to eat.
Jing Zhi wasnt afraid of his brother, but he stared at his brother for a while. Seeing his brothers calm expression, he suddenly felt conflicted.
Could it be that her brother was only concerned about Shuyin because of Shucheng mountain?
Or does older brother have other thoughts about Shuyin?
The meal was spent in a strange atmosphere, but Jing Rui seemed to be unaware of it. He even took Shuyin out after the meal and drove her back to school.
Jing Zhi watched his brother leave with Shuyin from the window, and the suspicion in his heart grew.
He felt that there was something wrong with his brother, but he felt that this could be exined.
He struggled for a while, then realized that he had really been too worried.
Her brother had always had his own opinions and was very bold. If he really liked Shuyin, he didnt need to make it happen. Her brother could definitely settle it himself!
Jing Zhi thought that if his brother and Shuyin went back together, the atmosphere between the two of them would be very warm and beautiful.
Unfortunately, he didn t.
The flight will be the night after tomorrow. Pack your things and get ready to go back. Ive already arranged a school for you there. You can enter the school directly when you go back. The principal of the school is my aunt. You can go to her if you need anything in the future.
The day after tomorrow? Why didnt you tell me in advance? The day after tomorrow is too rushed. I still have some things to deal with here, so I need to dy for a few days.
Shuyin wasnt happy. He could leave whenever he wanted? Why didnt he discuss it with her in advance?
The feeling of being controlled by someone surfaced again.
The rxed expression on her face suddenly disappeared without a trace. In an instant, she became cold and calm again, like a master who was confronting the local area. She could hide all her emotions and not let herself be tied down by the tenderness of his care today.
She didnt want to be a puppet!
She wanted to be herself and live ording to her own will!
Every day at the Virus Research Institute, she yearned for a new life, for freedom, and for being able to break free from the shackles of being controlled.
Now, she was free. She didnt want to escape from one cage and fall into another.
What else have you not dealt with? Ill handle it for you. The day after tomorrow, you must return to A city. Its not safe here.
Ive been living here for many days, whats not safe? If you wanted to send me back, why didnt you do so a few days ago? Ive been waiting for many days, waiting, but you never gave me any news!
Shuyins eyes were red and she looked at Jing Rui coldly, but she still expressed her pain.
If Jing Zhi didnt call you today, I wouldnt have known that I was leaving until an hour before the ne takes off the day after tomorrow.
Jing Zhis lie was exposed.
He had called her out to dinner on purpose in Jing Ruis name.
Jing Rui did not n to go at first, but Shuyin could tell.
Yes, I was going to inform you an hour before the ne takes off.
Jing Rui did not deny it. He felt that he did not need to.
I said it too early. I was worried that you would change your mind.
When the car arrived at Shuyins school, she took a deep breath and said calmly,Mm, youre right, Ive changed my mind! Im not going back to A city!
After she finished speaking, she opened the car door and left with her bag.
Jing Rui was stunned.
Didnt we agree to go back to A city?
Why did he change his mind so quickly?
He had said that he should have told Shuyin in thest hour!
A womans heart was like a needle at the bottom of the ocean.
Jing Rui unbuckled his seat belt and caught up with her.
It was already eleveno clock at night and there were not many people on the campus. Jing Rui caught sight of the slender figure in front of him after a while.
However, there was another tall figure not far in front of that figure!
Jing Rui could hear two people talking in English from a distance.
Cheryl, where did you go? Ive been waiting for you here the entire night!
Daniel, do you need something?
Yes, Ive been waiting for your answer! Cheryl, I like you very much. Im serious! Can you promise to be my girlfriend?
Im very sorry, but I think were just friends!
You dont have a boyfriend now, so why cant you ept my pursuit? You can give it a try, Ill definitely make you satisfied! I like you!
I ...
She doesnt like you!
Shuyin only managed to say one word before she was interrupted by a cold voice.
Shuyin and the male student named Daniel looked up at the same time.
Daniels confession was interrupted by a strange man, and he was very angry.Who are you? Theres no ce for you to speak here, so get lost!
As soon as he finished speaking, he was suddenly kicked hard in the face, and then his whole body flew a few meters away.
Jing Rui pretended not to hear a scream and turned to look at Shuyin coldly.This is the unfinished business you were talking about?
Chapter 1025
Chapter 1025: Do you like him?
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin had rarely seen Jing Rui so angry, and she was frightened by his cold and fierce aura!
Daniel wasnt the only one who pursued her. There were many other male students and even male teachers.
Although she hated being pestered, these people only admired her and never hurt her. On the contrary, they diligently helped her with all kinds of things every day, helped her borrow all kinds of books, and helped her a lot in her studies.
Daniels words were harsh, but Jing Rui should not have been so cruel to him.
Being kicked so far away and screaming so miserably, he must have broken his bones!
Shuyin was stunned for a moment. She did not answer Jing Ruis question, but ran to Daniel to check on his injury.
Jing Rui stood there and watched as Shuyin turned around to care about the man. For some reason, he suddenly felt very angry.
Fortunately, he had received the harshest training all year round. His mind was calmer than ordinary people and he could control his emotions better.
His handsome face was filled with coldness.
He strode to Shuyins side and pulled her away from Daniel. He said coldly,He wont die. Now, answer my question!
Shuyin didnt think that Daniel wouldnt die. He had already fainted, and blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth. His internal organs were probably bleeding from the impact.
Release me! Im going to send him to the hospital. Anyter and hell be dead!
You like him?
Shuyin was stunned. She did not expect Jing Rui to ask that.
However, no matter how angry she was, she did not want Jing Rui to misunderstand her. It would not do her any good.
No, I didn t!
Shuyin denied it without hesitation.Hes my ssmate, thats all! But hes also a human life, you shouldnt decide his life and death so rashly!
When I decide the life and death of others, Im even more sloppy than this! Im an assassin, and this is my living environment. The weak are prey to the strong, and theres no right or wrong! Dont tell me youve forgotten?
But hes different from yourpetitors! Hes just an ordinary person!
Jing Rui looked straight into Shuyins eyes and repeated,You like him?
Didnt I just say that I dont like it? Why are you still asking?
She looks like she likes Daniel?
If you like him, then I apologize for what happened today.
Jing Rui suddenly let go of Shu Yins wrist, took out his handkerchief and wiped his hands as if he had just held something dirty.
He wiped his hands and took out his phone to make a call.Han Feng,e and take the man to the hospital. Also, take miss Shu with you. Cancel her trip back to A city, and cancel all your protection operations. In the future, dont get involved in miss Shus rtionship problems!
Jing Rui turned around and disappeared into the dark night without looking at Shu Yin again.
His back view as he left was tall and cold, but it also revealed an indescribable loneliness and destion, as if he was the only one left in this world.
Shu Yin stood there in a daze, suddenly at a loss.
It was the first time that she had heard Jing Rui call her miss Shu, and it made her feel bad.
Why didnt she feel this way when others called her that?
Also, he said that he would cancel her schedule and not go to A city?
Didnt she already say that she didnt like Daniel?
Why did he not believe it?
She raised her wrist, which was red from his grip, and there were still clear fingerprints on it.
Did he despise her for being dirty?
He had never despised her before. Even when she bit him, he had never despised her saliva.
Shuyin suddenly turned her head and looked at Daniel, who was lying on the ground.
She understood now. Jing Rui did not despise her for being dirty, but for having touched someone else.
This obsession with cleanliness was too serious!
She had only touched Daniels carotid artery to confirm if he was still alive! He did not touch any other part of his body!
She didnt dare to touch Daniel. If she touched him, it might cause him to bleed!
Besides, Jing Rui was the only one who had mysophobia, and she was the only one who did not.
She didnt like to touch other people, especially men!
She had never touched anyone else except Jing Rui!
When she was taking care of Jing Zhi, she was always fully armed and wrapped up tightly. Even when she took out the bullet for Jing Zhist time, she wore double rubber gloves. She had never touched his skin.
But now Jing Rui despised her!
She even despised him!
Who knew if he had touched any other dirty woman!
No, wait!
Why was she thinking about all this nonsense! This was Jing Ruis girlfriends business. What did it have to do with her whether he had touched a woman or not?
Shouldnt she be more concerned about Daniels life?
Jing Ruis men were very efficient. They appeared in front of Shuyin within a minute.
The leader was Han Feng, whom Shuyin had met once before.
Han Feng had been punished by Jing Rui, and now he was back.
Now, he did not dare to make any decisions on his own, but only followed Jing Ruis orders strictly.
Moreover, he had been with Jing Rui for years and knew his temper very well. He could tell that his boss was really angry from his tone.
In fact, Han Feng had a rough idea of what was going on here, because he had been following Jing Rui from a distance, to ensure his safety and to wait for his orders.
Han Feng nced at Shuyin as if he did not know her. He said in the same cold tone as Jing Rui,Miss Shu, my men will first check on your friends injuries and send him to the hospital after basic treatment. Do you agree to this?
This was a necessary step. Why did he still need to ask for her opinion?
She wasnt Daniel!
Shuyins face stiffened, and she said coldly,I agree!
Indeed, like master, like subordinate!
Why did they all misunderstand her rtionship with Daniel!
Was she supposed to let Daniel die? Just because she was concerned about the opposite sex, did that mean she liked him?
What kind of logic is this!
ording to what she said, she was most concerned about Jing Rui, and Jing Rui did not misunderstand that she liked him.
Double standard!
Shuyin was so angry that her face turned red and white. In the end, she got into the car with the cold wind and sent Daniel to the hospital.
It turned out that Shuyins worry was correct.
Daniels injuries were very serious. Not only did he break a rib, but his internal organs were also damaged. Even his spine was injured. He would have to rest in bed for at least a month before he could walk.
Fortunately, he was young and had a good recovery ability. Otherwise, he might have been paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life.
After Shuyin found out that Daniels life was no longer in danger, she left the hospital and didnt stay to apany Daniel.
She wasnt even close to Daniel. Daniel only liked her because he thought she was pretty.
She was a cold person by nature, and as long as Daniel didnt die, she would have done her part.

However, after this incident, Shuyin realized a problem.
What she cared about was Jing Rui.
Thinking of his cold appearance and his back view as he turned and left, Shu Yin couldnt sleep the whole night.
His face repeatedly appeared in her mind. Even though she had slept in a daze in the morning, he was still in her dreams.
This was the first time Shuyin didnt wake up early. This was the first time she allowed herself to be immersed in something and couldnt extricate herself.
From the biological point of view of her research, she felt that she was only experiencing a temporary hormonal eruption, which meant that she was gradually maturing.
After this period of time passed, she would naturally return to normal.
She had never thought about marriage. It was good to be alone. At least, she would always be alone and would not be abandoned.
She had the shadow of being abandoned by her parents when she was a child, so she was unwilling to open her heart to others easily.
She guarded her heart tightly and tried her best to protect herself. At least for now, she was still very sessful.
Everyone had thought that she had no memories of her childhood.
In fact, she did!
She even remembered her parents faces!
She also remembered that her father had personally sent her to the Virus Research Institute!
She didnt know why, but the potion that was effective for everyone else was useless for her. Her childhood memories were not erased.
On the contrary, as time passed, her memory became clearer and clearer.
She had a photographic memory and could remember everything that had happened in her childhood. She had studied so hard because she hoped that one day, she would have the strength to protect herself.
She did not want to rely on Jing Rui all the time.
One day, he would leave her.
Just likest night, he had left her, no longer protected her, and even hated her.
Fortunately, she had never dared to have too much hope. She knew very well in her heart that it was better to rely on herself than on anyone!
However, even though Shuyin knew that she should not rely on Jing Rui, his handsome face would still appear in her mind.
She couldnt sleepst night and had to catch up on sleep in the dormitory in the morning. Shuyin only got up in the afternoon to eat, and then she took her textbooks to ss.
The people who usually pursued her in the ssroom were unexpectedly quiet today. No one came to disturb her.
Shuyin was a little surprised, but then she realized that everyone probably knew about Daniels beating.
Those students were a little afraid of her, so they didnt dare to approach her easily.
Shuyins expression was calm, but she felt that this was really a good thing! Daniel was the one who was going to suffer.
After ss, Shuyin walked towards the library with her books. A shy red Ferrari suddenly stopped in front of her, giving her a shock!
It was early spring, and it was still cold. The temperature was very low, but the sports car had an open top, and a cool and handsome man was sitting inside.
Beauty,e with me tonight, how about it?
Shuyin nced at him and felt that the Jing family had probably given all the best genes in the world to them.
Jing Rui was handsome, and Jing Zhi was even more so.
Nothing, Im not free. Youd better go home and apany your girlfriend!
Jing Zhi took off his cool sunsses and said with a smile,I dont have a girlfriend. Didnt you say yesterday that you have a boyfriend? Im here today to take a look. If you really have a boyfriend, Ill give up! If you dont ... The consequences will be very serious!
What does it have to do with you whether I have a boyfriend or not? Shuyin frowned.
She knew very well that Jing Zhi had no romantic feelings for her.
Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, was probably Jing Zhis type, although he would never admit it.
Jing Zhi raised an eyebrow,of course it does! Im looking for a woman for my brother. You know that hes always alone and cold all day. If theres a woman to apany him, hell definitely be a little more lively. But ... You dont look like youre anything special.
Yes, so you dont have to worry about it.
That handsome face shed across Shuyins mind again, and her heart couldnt help but jump slightly.
She suppressed all the waves in her heart and her face was calm.Hes suitable for someone with a fiery temper.
That might not be the case! Maybe only two people without smoke and fire can create sparks!
Jing Zhi still felt that his brother treated Shuyin differently. Since he couldnt figure out his brothers intentions, he had no choice but to ask Shuyin.
He didnt expect Shuyin to be even more wless!
He felt that it was really tiring to talk to people with high IQ like them!
The shifty-eyed guy who was injured by my brother yesterday is your boyfriend?
Shuyin was a little annoyed.
Why was everyone so sure that Daniel was her boyfriend?
Did she have such bad taste?
Daniel wasnt as sneaky as Jing Zhi had said, but he was still childish and impulsive. He was also less handsome than Jing Rui ...
No, why was sheparing him to Jing Rui again?
Hes not! Hes just a ssmate. Who told you that hes my boyfriend?
Did Jing Rui tell him?
Did Jing Rui mind it a lot?
I found it myself! Because my brother told mest night not to touch a guy named Daniel. He also told me that youre not going back to city A, and that I have to find time to send that idiot Zheng yuluo back alone.
Jing Zhi examined Shuyin from head to toe and asked suspiciously,Youre not going back to A city for that stinky man? Women who were in love were really unreasonable! Do you know how many girlfriends Daniel has? Do you know that he likes both men and women? Do you know what other shameful hobbies he has? You ...
Stop, stop, stop!
Shuyin saw that he was going to talk until the next day, so she immediately interrupted him.Im not going back to A city because of him! Ill say it onest time, Daniel and I are just normal ssmates. Other than his name, I dont know anything else, and I dont need to know! Im very unhappy right now, please drive your car and disappear!
How many women Daniel had had had nothing to do with her!
The more women he had, the better. That way, he wouldnt have time to pester her!
Jing Zhi, on the other hand, was too difficult to deal with.
Jing Rui had left so decisivelyst night, but Jing Zhi was the one who kept talking.
He made it seem like he really liked her!
Then why didnt youe back to A city all of a sudden? Didnt we already agree on this? My brother has already prepared the ne ticket and passport for you. How can you not appreciate a good persons kindness!
Shuyin suddenly felt like crying. Who did Jing Zhi learn to be so long-winded? This was driving her crazy!
Chapter 1027
Chapter 1027: Brother is always right!
Trantor: 549690339
That night, Jing Zhi followed Shuyin wherever she went.
He beat up all of Shuyins suitors and threatened every male student who looked at Shuyin, saying that he would dig out their eyes.
Jing Zhis looks, figure, and temperament were unparalleled in the entire University.
He also drove such a luxurious sports car. One look and one could tell that he was a proud young master.
Moreover, the killing intent on his body was not a joke. One would feel fear when they got close to him.
In just one night, Shuyins suitors scattered like birds and beasts. None of them dared to pester her anymore!
Jing Zhi was even more brutal than Jing Rui had been the night before. Seventeen people had been injured that night. The school was bustling with activity as the ambnces came and left.
Shuyins initial anger had turned into numbness in the end.
She only hoped that Jing Zhi wouldnt kill her.
These two brothers had the same style!
Now, no one in the school dared to pursue her anymore. Not only did they pursue her, but there was probably no one to talk to her.
Shuyin was so angry that her chest hurt, but Jing Zhi called Jing Rui in front of her.
Brother, I beat up those bastards who covet our little Shenyu! All of them were wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves, and a few of them were so scared that they peed their pants! What a good for nothing! Oh, I listened to you and didnt beat up Daniel!
Jing Zhi hung up the phone after chatting with Jing Rui for a while. He saw Shuyins face and said,I helped you settle so many hooligans. Even if you dont treat me to a meal, shouldnt you thank me?
I really have to thank you! In the future, no matter if its a man or a woman, no one will dare to talk to me anymore. Even the instructors wont dare to teach me!
Jing Zhi had even beaten up two of her favorite teachers today. Shuyin was worried to death.
If this continued, would she be expelled from the school?!
Theres nothing we can do about that. Who asked you to be so good-looking and attract so many peach blossoms? Hmm ... Why dont I order a batch of human skin masks for you in the future? its really tiring for me to deal with so many people! If it wasnt for my brother protecting you, I wouldnt care about these things!
Shuyins heart skipped a beat when she heard this.
Why did he protect me?
Because ...
Jing Zhi blinked and said,Because you used to take care of me! Im so important to my brother, and youve protected me. Hes very grateful, so hell take care of you for the rest of his life! What do you think? my brother is a good person, right? Im telling you, theres no one more powerful than my brother in this world, and hes so handsome. Even Im about to fall in love with him, so why dont you?
Who said she didnt like him?
This was Shuyins first reaction.
When she realized what she was thinking, she couldnt help but be stunned.
No, no, no, I dont like it!
It was just a normal physiological phenomenon during puberty!
It was natural for a handsome man to attract the attention of girls!
Shuyin found a more reasonable excuse and finally felt a little more at ease.
She didnt believe Jing Zhis words.
There must be some other reason for the brothers to protect her so much.
And Jing Zhi must have just found out about it.
Jing Zhi hadnt been so protective of her before. Hed treated her as a doctor friend at most. He hadnt had that kind of protective attitude when they were in A city.
Shuyin was sensitive and intelligent. She could catch many small details. She wanted to get an answer from Jing Zhi.
But it was obvious that even though Jing Zhi looked carefree and innocent, he had kept his mouth shut about this matter.
However, the more it was like this, the more it showed that there was a big problem.
Shuyin fell silent. After a long time, she said,What did your brother say just now?
You care about my brother? Jing Zhis eyes lit up.
Its fine if you dont want to tell me. Im going back to the dormitory to sleep.
Dont go! Jing Zhi stood up and stopped Shu Yin. He gritted his teeth and said,Youre young, but you have a big temper. You leave without saying a word! Zheng yuluo, that idiot, is much more obedient. Ill be angered to death by you sooner orter if I have a wife like you!
Shuyin suddenlyughed softly.
Jing Zhi finally admitted that Zheng yuluo was the best in his heart.
Zheng yuluo was indeed very obedient. She listened to Jing Zhi and never minded him losing his temper. She wasnt even angry when he said she was his girlfriend. She looked at Jing Zhi with concern and admiration.
A girl like this was worthy of a lifetime of care.
Other than Zheng yuluo, Jing Zhi would probably not be able to find another woman who would be so tolerant of him.
After all ... His nagging was really deadly! The asional brutality was even more terrifying!
My brother said that Im not allowed to meddle in your private affairs in the future. Youre free to choose your rtionship problems. Ill only protect you for personal safety. Hmph! If youre cheated by a man, its none of our business! Donte crying to us in the future!
Jing Zhi thought that his brother must be angry. He didnt treat Shuyin like this before. Why did he suddenly be so formal?
His brother was angry, and he didnt like Shuyin anymore, so his words were a little harsh.
In this world, her brother was the most important person in his life!
Whoever made life difficult for his brother would also be making life difficult for him!
His brother was always right!
The one at fault will always be others!
Jing Zhi was suddenly in no mood to talk. He snorted and drove away in a Huff.
Shuyin stood alone under a bare tree, a sense of loneliness rising in her heart.
In the end, everyone would still leave her.
In the end, she still had to walk down this path alone.
Perhaps she should learn a fighting technique and train her physical strength. This way, she would be able to protect herself when she encountered bad people in the future.
She stretched out her finger and knocked on her head lightly, a bitter smile on her lips.
She had forgotten that she had a powerful ability that she was born with!
Tomorrow, Ill have to look for more information in that area and study it more.
In the dead of night, Jing Rui stood by the window of the hotel and looked at the lights in one of the rooms opposite.
He changed to another hotel. Although this hotel was more ordinary, he could see Shuyins dormitory from the window of this room.
Although his vision wasnt as good as Jing Zhi s, it was far better than ordinary people S. He could basically see Shuyins every move.
Of course, there was one exception.
For example, now that Shuyin had closed the curtains, he could only see a rough outline through the curtains.
He was only entrusted by Shu Chengshan to protect Shuyin. After thinking about it carefully, he really shouldnt interfere in Shuyins love life.
No matter who pursued her or who she liked, he should not interfere.
So Jing Rui kept all his emotions in check and only acted as a protector.
He clearly realized that he had crossed the line by protecting her!
He looked at the slender figure reflected in the window opposite him, turned on his phone, and called Han Feng.Hanfeng, get ready. Were going back tomorrow.
Chapter 1028
Chapter 1028: Little sister, you know too much!
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui had handed over all the matters in North America to the forces he had trained over the eight years. With Lu and Jing Zhi in charge, the killer organization had gradually resumed its normal operations.
Except for the missing researchers at the Virus Research Institute, Jing Rui had cleaned up all the loose ends.
He went back to A city where he had been away for a long time and started to take over the properties of family Jing and learn how to run Jingsheng enterprise.
On the day that Jing Rui came back, Jing Yiran got on the ne and flew to North America to reunite with his wife and children.
However, when he arrived at his sons ce and saw that Zheng yuluo was also there, he was stunned for a while before he realized that the rtionship between his son and Zheng yuluo was probably not simple.
No one was happier than Shangguan ning when Jing Rui returned to the country.
She took Jing Xi with her and went to the airport with Jing Yichen to pick up Jing Rui. She cried all the way from the airport to the door. Jing Xi could not stand it anymore.
Jing Xi wiped Shangguan nings tears away with her little hands.Mom, dont cry. You wont look good if your eyes are swollen from crying! If you dont look good anymore, what if dad has a change of heart and goes to find other women? I dont want a stepmother!
Shangguan ning burst intoughter at her daughters words.
Jing Yichen, who was sitting in the drivers seat, pulled a long face.
His wife could actually smile. What kind of daughter consoled her mother like this? Was she really his biological daughter?
How could he have a change of heart!
This little girl was getting more and more out of control. If she wasnt punished in three days, she could turn the entire A city upside down!
It was great that their son was back!
In the future, he would no longer have to clean up his daughters mess. He would leave this matter to his son. As an older brother, he had to experience the feeling of protecting his younger sister.
Jing Ruis eyes were smiling.
There were thousands of good things outside, but nothing was better than home.
Even though he had not seen his parents for a long time and had only spent a very short time with Jing Xi, he still felt that he was the mostfortable in front of them.
The most important thing was that he had been supporting everything on his own all these years. He had to bear all the pressure and pain alone. Only when he returned home did he feel like a child.
His father had shielded him from the storm outside.
Her fathers back seemed to always be straight and reliable.
The years had stained him with a little bit of wind and frost, but his mother, Shangguan ning, seemed to still be young and energetic.
Jing Rui raised his hand and gently wiped away her tears. He felt that he was the one who had suffered the most in his mothers life.
Her husband and daughter were very good to her, and Jing Xi was very obedient to her. She had been coaxing her since she was young.
He was the only one. Not only did he almost kill her duringbor, but he was also in constant danger after that. He rarely got close to her, and he even disappeared for seven years, causing her to miss him so much that she became ill.
It was only now that he had grown up and realized that it was not easy being a mother that he gradually began to feel sorry for her.
Mom, dont cry. Im back now, arent I? I wont leave in the future, okay?
Shangguan ning wasnt crying because she was sad. She was just too happy. Her lips were curled up, but her tears kept falling.
She could finally protect her son!
She wanted to touch her sons head, but she saw that her son had already grown up. It was not good to touch his head like when she was young, so she could only touch his face instead.
Jing Rui wasnt used to such a touch, but he didnt move when he saw Shangguan nings red and swollen eyes.
Shangguan ning could tell that her son was feeling ufortable. In fact, he had disliked being touched by others since he was very young. Shangguan ning knew that very well.
She quickly retracted her hand. Tears flowed down her face, but she smiled and said,My son is so handsome! Youre as handsome as your father!
Jing Ruiughed.Mom, I thought you would say that I am more handsome than dad. But I can never win.
One could tell how deep their parents feelings were from just a few small details.
When he was| In her mothers eyes, her father would always be the most handsome and perfect man.
No, no, no! Jing Xi quickly said.Brother, I think youre more handsome than dad! Dont you think Im prettier than mom?
She had been sitting next to Shangguan ning, but now she climbed up Shangguan ning, then Jing Rui, and sat on hisp.
She was only seven years old and had the heart of a child. She couldnt help but admire her brother and wanted to hear his praise.
Although Jing Rui was not used to people sitting on hisp, he could not drive his only sister away.
Fortunately, he wasnt used to it, but he didnt reject it.
His sister was pretty and cute, like a flower bud, weird and happy. They were connected by blood, and Jing Rui could not help but love her.
He pinched his sisters Red cheeks and smiled.Xixi, you have good taste. I told you Im the most handsome! Of course, Xixi was also the most beautiful! He has surpassed his master!
Aiya, youre indeed my biological brother!
Jing Xi didnt care that her face had been pinched. She began to tell her brother about her parents embarrassing stories and her own interesting stories. She didnt feel unfamiliar at all, as if she had been with her brother for a long time.
As she spoke, she suddenly asked,big brother, where did your substitute go? He was not a good person! Every time he looked at me, his gaze was so strange. After he came to our house, he looked around everywhere. Right, right, he even used your name to look for women to solve his physiological problems! However, Ive ruined it. Dont you think Im great?
Jing Rui was so shocked by Jing Xi that he almost bit his tongue.
Little sister, you know too much!
He looked at his parents and saw that neither of them had any reaction!
Apparently, it was not the first time that this girl had said something like this. Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning were used to it.
Jing Rui only thought that his sister Knew Too Much at such a young age, but he hadpletely forgotten that he knew more than Jing Xi when he was a child, to the extent that his words were shocking!
Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen werent used to Jing Xis words, but Jing Xi was already much better than Jing Rui. They both thought that it was normal for their daughter to be like this.
Jing Rui coughed andplimented his sister.Xixi is amazing! However, its better for you to leave such things to me in the future! You dont have to worry about that substitute. Big brother will catch him and punish him.
Chapter 1029
Chapter 1029: The sister who caused trouble
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was not trying to coax Jing Xi. He had really arranged for people to arrest Liao Wei.
Liao Wei had touched his bottom line, and this was something he could not tolerate.
When his sister grew up, she would definitely not be an ordinary girl. She would have to face bloodshed when she grew up in family Jing and her father must have taught her a lot of things, otherwise she would not have such a mind.
Jing Rui looked at his sister and suddenly understood why his mother loved him so much.
All adults would unconsciously pamper their children. He was thirteen years older than his sister, and he wanted to protect her well and not let her suffer.
However, he admired his father. He would not spoil his child just because he loved him.
Even though his heart ached for her, he had never softened.
Jing Xi chattered all the way. Her voice was crisp, and her smile was especially pleasant. The atmosphere in the car was very warm.
When they got home, Jing Xi was still pestering Jing Rui. She had been talking all the way, and now it was Jing Ruis turn to tell her his interesting stories.
Interesting things? Jing Rui was a little stunned.
Thats right. Brother, youve been away for so many years. Dont you have any interesting things to tell me?
Jing Xi blinked her big eyes and couldnt wait to hear the story.
Jing Rui was a little embarrassed. He did not seem to have any interesting stories.
Being gnawed on like a pigs trotter while being hugged in sleep ... Does that count?
Jing Xi waited for a long time, but her brother still didnt speak. She couldnt help but shake her head like a little adult.Sigh, brother, how have you been all these years? Dont tell me youre going to keep a cold face all day, not smiling or talking?
Whats wrong with that?
Jing Xi sighed helplessly and asked,Brother, how many girlfriends have you had? Do you have a girlfriend now?
Jing Rui thought that he would be the one asking the question when he got home.| His mother, Shangguan ning, had never expected that the first person she would ask would be her seven-year-old sister.
This little sister of his was about to be an elder sister!
Even though she was a year older, her love for being a housekeeper had not changed!
Jing Rui took a sip of water and patted his sisters head.I dont have a girlfriend yet. Why? do you have a boyfriend? Then you have to tell me, Ill help you investigate.
Eh? Brother, how did you know that I have a boyfriend?
Cough, cough, cough ...
Jing Rui almost spat out the water he had just drunk.
How old are you?
She had a boyfriend at such a young age. Didnt his parents discipline this little girl?
His parents were too open-minded!
You dont understand! You see, Im seven years old this year. If Im not suitable, Ill quickly change to another one. When Im an adult, Ill definitely be able to find a suitable one!
Shangguan ningughed as she listened. Seeing her sons surprised look, she exined for her daughter with a smile,Your sister has had three or four different boyfriends by now. Theyre actually her friends, and theyre all kids. Every time Xixi likes someone, shell give them a lollipop and ask your father to investigate them to see if theyre two-timing. Theyre all mischievous kids!
Jing Rui was relieved. It was just a joke.
He had thought that Jing Xi was telling the truth when she said it so seriously.
Brother, you have to be in love! Youre so handsome, Im sure there will be many girls who like you. When the timees, Ill help you pick, okay? Im small, they wont guard against me, and itll be easy for them to reveal their fox tail! Hmph, Hmph, they have to get past me first!
Jing Rui did not n to fall in love, at least not for now.
He was only 20 years old, and it was still a long time before he got married.
But he also knew that marriage was a must. It was a good thing to let Jing Xi help pick.
His future wife would definitely have to get along with his sister. If they didnt get along well, he would rather not have her.
Jing Xi had been pampered since she was a child, and there was no reason for her to be angry at another woman.
Okay, you can help, but you cant cause any trouble.
What he meant was that his sister should not randomly match a couple.
Dont worry, brother!
Seeing her brother agree, Jing Xi was overjoyed. She immediately promised,I definitely wont do anything stupid, Ill listen to you! If you like someone, Ill help you check. If you dont like her, I definitely dont like her! In the future, sister-inw will be living with you, not me! I just need to make sure that shell treat you well and be filial to our parents!
Jing Rui was shocked.
Was his sister seven or seventeen years old this year?!
Why did he sound so mature when he spoke?
What Jing Rui didnt know was that Jing Xi was saying all this because of Shangguan nings constant nagging.
Shangguan ning had always said that Jing Ruis wife should not be perfect in every aspect, as long as she could treat Jing Rui well.
The term filial to your parents was added by Jing Xi herself. It was taught by the teachers at school.
For the first time, Jing Rui felt proud that his sister was so smart.
Even if this girl went out alone in the future, he didnt have to worry about her being deceived. She would probably be the one to cheat others.
It was a new feeling to have a sister, and Jing Rui was getting used to it.
However, after a week, he was almost driven crazy by his sister!
She found it interesting to be a hairdresser, so she brought scissors from home to school and cut someones hair when no one was paying attention. In the end, she identally cut someones ear and pricked his scalp!
The teacher was so angry that he asked the parents to apologize to Jing Yichen, but Jing Rui had no choice but to do so.
After dealing with this matter with great difficulty, the next day, the school library caught fire!
The reason was that Jing Xi was holding a magnifying ss and was about to try focusing light and lighting up the fire!
Not only did she light the fire herself, but she also dragged a few of her ssmates to test it together!
The children almost couldnt run out of the library!
When Jing Rui went to the school for the second time, he apologized to the parents and even asked for a donation to rebuild the school library.
The others all had different degrees of burns, but Jing Xi was a smart girl. She had been working out under Jing Yichens supervision. She was the first one to run away when she saw the fire. Except for some dust on her face, even her clothes were clean. She was not injured at all.
So, after she woke up from her sleep, she went to get into trouble again. Yingluo learned how to drive on a whim, and in the end, she destroyed the school bus!
Fortunately, there were no students on the school bus at that time. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!
It was fine if the car was destroyed, but the point was that she was injured herself, and her arm was dislocated!
However, she had only been in bed for one day. The next day, she went to school with injuries! He didnt listen to anyone!
Then, an hourter, the principal called Jing Rui again.

Trantor: 549690339
Seeing the principals call, Jing Rui, who was not afraid of anything, did not dare to answer the phone.
However, he had to ept it!
On the other end of the phone, it meant that his sister had gotten into trouble again today!
And it was the principal who called, which proved that his sister had caused a lot of trouble this time!
The old principalined tearfully.
Brother Jing Xi, young master Jing, please do us a favor and take Jing Xi home. If we dont take her home, our school will be blown up by her! Its fine if I die as the principal. Ill just take it as a sacrifice for the education career, but I cant let all the children in the school take the risk! If something were to happen, the childs parents woulde after me!
Jing Rui listened to the principals nagging for a while and found out that Jing Xi had blown up the entire floor of theboratory building by herself.
Jing Xi was slightly injured, and several teachers had been protecting her.
Jing Rui closed his eyes in pain.
He had taught his sister how to make the small bombst night because he had seen her arm hurt so badly. He had wanted to distract her and help her.
Who would have thought that his younger sister would do it today!
And he had sessfully blown up theboratory building!
Of all the things he could teach, why did he have to teach his sister to make a bomb!
He had just donated two million Yuan to build a library, and today, he was going to donate another two million Yuan to build an experimental building!
Even if family Jing was rich, they shouldnt be spending money like this!
The most important thing was that his sister was able to escape by luck every time, but what if she couldn t?
Jing Rui finally understood why his father did not want to rx and train Jing Xis body.
It turned out that it was used to escape!
He finally understood why his father had looked so relieved when he had asked him to take care of Jing Xi.
This girl was simply a devil!
Fortunately, the principal and the teachers had the foresight because they had always known that Jing Xi was a time bomb. When she was in the experimental ss, there was basically no one in theboratory building.
Otherwise, well suffer heavy casualties!
Jing Rui stopped what he was doing and drove to the school to pick her up.
By the time he got to Jing Xi, her wounds had already been treated. She had even changed her clothes, wiped her face clean, and rbed her hair. Her ponytail was tied up beautifully and neatly, without a trace of the explosion.
It seemed that the school was very good to Jing Xi and had taken care of her first.
Jing Rui thanked the principal and left with Jing Xi in his arms.
However, he left Han Feng and a few of his men behind to deal with the schools Affairs andpensate the school and the teachers who had protected Jing Xi.
All the teachers in the school knew that Jing Xi was a member of the Jing family, and she was the only girl in the Jing family for several generations. She was pampered very much and was nicknamed the little devil of the Jing family!
Therefore, no one dared to say anything and could only bear with it with a bitter face.
Fortunately, family Jing was not an unreasonable family. They would bear all the responsibility.
In the car, Jing Rui did not drive, but held Jing Xi in his arms and checked her injury.
Jing Rui was relieved to see that Jing Xi had no other injuries except for some minor wounds on her arms.
Jing Xi didnt care about her injury at all. She just lowered her head and mumbled,Big brother, Ive made you hate me again.
Jing Rui held his sister in his arms and said,I thought you were a good girl the day I came back. I didnt expect you to be so good at causing trouble! Blowing up a building is a small matter, but what if you get injured?
Jing Xi had done something wrong, and she felt a little guilty.
However, it felt very safe in her brothers arms, and when she heard him say this, her eyes immediately lit up and she asked,Brother, you also think that blowing up a building is a small matter?
Jing Rui was speechless.
This was not the main point!
Hed thought that Jing Zhi was enough to worry him, but now there was someone even more worrying than Jing Zhi!
Compared to Jing Xi, Jing Zhi was like an obedient baby!
When he was seven years old, all he did was bully girls, deliberately dirtying their dresses or tying their braids to chairs.
She couldnt go on like this. She was only seven years old, but she had already turned the school upside down. If she grew up a little more, the entire A city would no longer be able to amodate her!
Youd better not go to school. Ill hire an excellent teacher to teach you at home.
At home, Jing Xi was more obedient. She listened to her mother and would not rashly tear down her own house.
I won t!
Jing Xi immediately pouted and refused.
I like school! There were so many students and teachers in the school, and they could y together! How could I spend my childhood in darkness? I want sunlight! Big brother, you cant let the flowers of our country grow in a greenhouse, in a small house that has no sun! I want to go outside and endure the storm!
Jing Rui held his forehead in pain.
Oh my God, Jing Xi was his nemesis!
He had never suffered as much as he had these few days in his life!
This girl was going to ascend to the heavens!
Their house was more than 1000 square meters, all withrge floor-to-ceiling windows, and a super luxurious ocean view room!
How could it have anything to do with a dark little house!
It was also enduring the storm!
He was the one suffering the storm, alright!
If you keep causing trouble like this, our family will have to pay off the debt with the house soon! Your schools teachers are already afraid of you, and your ssmates run away the moment they see you. Whats the point of you being in school? Why dont you go home and Ill teach you!
Are you still going to teach me how to make a small bomb?
Um ... No, I can also teach you how to be a little doll and how to draw.
Thats boring!
Jing Xis little face immediately fell.
She still preferred powerful bombs!
Im not doing it, I want to go to school! Dont worry, they all know my surname is Jing. No one will dare to do anything to me! Brother, am I going to school to study? No, he was trying to make connections! The children in our school all have powerful backgrounds. Even if they cant be my boyfriend in the future, we can be good friends and help each other!
Jing Rui was almost driven crazy by his sister.
He held his sisters small hand and said earnestly,Xixi, we dont need you to make any connections. Just dont blow up the school and make family Jing hate you.
Jing Rui had learned the word hate from Jing Xi.
Every time she got into trouble, the first thing she would say would be,brother, Ive made you hate me again!
Jing Rui brought Jing Xi home. Shangguan nings heart ached when she saw her daughter hurt again.
Mom, Im fine! Jing Xiforted her with a smile. The teachers have protected me, so please prepare a gift for me. Ill give it to the teachers tomorrow as a thank you gift!
Yes, yes, yes. Xixi, youve thought it through. Mom will prepare it for you now!
Jing Rui shook his head helplessly. The girl was so smart that she had a new excuse to go to school.
Tomorrow ... Hopefully, it would rain tomorrow. At least, they wouldnt have to worry about the school burning down, right?
Chapter 1031
Chapter 1031: Leaving
Trantor: 549690339
The weather in North America had been very clear recently, especially in suburbs. The air was fresh, and everything was back to life. Thend had a hint of green.
Jing Yiran had spent most of his life in A city and rarely went to other ces.
This time, he hade to North America to reunite with his wife and children. Every day, he would go out for a walk with his wife, or go fishing or ying basketball with his son. He was in high spirits and looked ten years younger.
Lu was also very happy to see him. She did not need to deal with the small things in the killer organization. The people below could do it easily. She would report the important things to Jing Rui directly and he would deal with them himself. So she had been very rxed recently.
She had been in North America for a long time and was very familiar with it. She could be Jing Yirans tour guide.
Seeing that the family of three had reunited, Zheng yuluo could not stay here any longer.
In fact, she had wanted to go back on the first day Jing Yiran had arrived, but she had no passport and no money. She could not leave as she pleased.
She asked her father to transfer the money to her and send her a series of documents such as her passport and ID card. After receiving them, she booked a ne ticket online and prepared to return home.
Although ... She didnt want to return to China.
Jing Zhi hadnt tormented her these days, perhaps because his parents were around. He spoke to her coldly, but he didnt sound as cruel as before. He was much gentler.
Zheng yuluo was easily satisfied. With such a change, she had nothing to regret.
That morning, she packed up the new clothes that Jing Zhi had bought for her and took a taxi to the airport.
Jing zhichen ran back and didnt see Zheng yuluo. He thought that she had gone out for a walk, so he didnt take it to heart.
Jing Zhi only felt that something was wrong when he still didnt see Zheng yuluo in the afternoon.
It was a pity that Zheng yuluo did not have a cell phone on her. Even if he wanted to contact her, he could not!
If he had known this would happen, he would have agreed to her request to buy a cell phone.
Jing Zhi drove around and looked for Zheng yuluo. He searched all the ces that Zheng yuluo would usually go. He also asked his parents who had gone out to y in the evening if they had seen Zheng yuluo. Both of them said that they had not seen her.
Jing Zhi was a little annoyed.
Seeing his son frowning, Jing Yiran asked,Did Yu Luo leave? I saw her receiving a package yesterday with her passport and ID card inside.
What? a passport?!
Jing Zhi shot up from the sofa.
Dad, why didnt you tell me about such an important matter?
Jing Yiran got startled,you didnt ask her to leave? Two days ago, I even heard you call her an idiot and tell her to get lost. I thought you knew that her family had sent her money and her passport!
I ...
Jing Zhi was at a loss for words.
I was just casually saying that, I didnt really ask her to get lost! Its not peaceful here, what if something happens to her alone! Ive already promised to send her off, why did she leave without even saying a word! Theyre rebelling! If I dont torture her for a few days, she wont know what herst name is!
Jing Zhi was so angry that he was gritting his teeth. He didnt notice Jing Yirans strange look at all. He was so angry that he picked up his coat and car keys and drove straight to the airport.
The vi that Jing Zhi was living in now used to be Jing Rui s. It was located in the suburbs and was close to the airport. A small airport had been built so that he could take a helicopter to go around the world.
Jing Zhi drove the car at top speed. It was supposed to take half an hour, but it only took him ten minutes to get there.
However, when he arrived, Zheng yuluos ne had already taken off, and Zheng yuluo was nowhere to be seen!
He drove home with a cold face, sat on the sofa, picked up an orange, and gnawed on it as if there was a grudge between them.
Halfway through, he threw the orange back to Zheng yuluo. No one was peeling the orange for him anymore. When Zheng yuluo was here, she often peeled the orange for him.
He was used to eating peeled oranges now, so he was not used to eating a peeled orange.
Seriously, his brother had left, and so had Zheng yuluo. He was left alone in North America. No one was there to apany him!
Jing Yiran walked to his son and saw that he had thrown away his favorite orange. He knew that his son was in a bad mood.
He sat down next to Jing Zhi, patted him on the shoulder, and asked in a low voice,Ah Chi, you dont hate Yu Luo anymore? She ...
Before Jing Yiran could finish, Jing Zhi said angrily,Hate! How could he not hate her! She was not a good person! Youve tricked me time and time again, Ill definitely get my revenge!
But I dont think youre that bad to her. You even bought her clothes and worried about her safety.
There was something that Jing Yiran didnt say. Jing Zhi seemed to care about Zheng yuluo a lot.
The two of them didnt like each other when they were young, but these days, Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi seemed to be getting along.
Zheng yuluo had beenpetitive when she was a child, but she had be so gentle and gentle when she grew up, especially when it came to Jing Zhi. Her tolerance was unique.
But Jing Yiran was still on guard against Zheng yuluo.
The hurt she had brought to his son was a permanent scar in his heart as a father.
He could stop causing trouble for Zheng yuluo and stop hating her, but he could not ept letting his son be with Zheng yuluo.
Dad, I cant possibly let her wear my clothes every day, can I? Besides, Im not worried about her safety. Im just afraid that the Zheng family will me us if she dies!
Jing Zhi would never admit that he was good to Zheng yuluo.
Did he treat her well?
No!
Didnt she see that he had never been nice to Zheng yuluo?
When Jing Yiran was young, he had experienced more women and rtionships than Jing Zhi. He was very sensitive to the things between men and women. Zheng yuluo looked at her son with adoration.
He didnt believe that his son didnt notice it at all!
He did not believe that his son had no feelings for Zheng yuluo!
However, he also believed that the rtionship between his son and Zheng yuluo was rtively weak and not to the point of inseparable.
Therefore, it was still not toote to let go now.
Jing Yiran patted his sons shoulder.
He didnt want to interfere too much in his sons rtionship problems. As long as his son was happy, it was fine.
His only worry was that Jing Zhi would fall in love with Zheng yuluo. They had such a deep conflict between them that they might not be able to get along well in the future. In that case, it was better not to start.
Perhaps, he could introduce his son to a few outstanding girls.
Perhaps, her son had too little emotional experience, so he could not resist Zheng yuluos gentleness.
Chapter 1032
Chapter 1032: Miss Shu, we are here to pick you up
Trantor: 549690339
The next day, Jing Yiran went on a self-driving trip with his wife, leaving Jing Zhi alone at home. He was a little bored.
In fact, even if his parents were at home with him, he would not feel much joy. There was a generation gap between them! They were not even on the same channel!
In the morning, he dealt with a few matters of the killer organization, and in the afternoon, he was so free that grass was about to grow.
Jing Zhi walked around the house and munched on many oranges. Finally, he decided to go to school to y with Shuyin.
Although he might not have anything inmon with Shuyin, he found it interesting to tease her and protect her at the same time.
Shuyin was reading in the library when someone suddenly sat down beside her.
She found it strange. Ever since Jing Rui had injured Daniel and Jing Zhi had injured countless suitors, no one had dared to approach her.
Who was so bold today?
Shu Yin turned her head slightly. After seeing the person beside her, she couldnt help but frown.Why are you here again?
Im here to protect you. Am I not wee?
Did you have a fight with Zheng yuluo?
What does mying to you have to do with her?
Youve been in a bad mood recently?
Jing Zhi was almost confused by Shuyin.
Why did it feel like he couldnt keep up with Shu Yins rhythm at all!
Im in a good mood. Im here to protect you today!
Why didnt youe a few days ago, but today? You had a fight with Zheng yuluo and she ignored you. Youre bored, so you came to me, right?
Although his guess was slightly off, the essence was the same.
He was really too smart!
Jing Zhi didnt want to hide anything anymore.
He took away Shu Yins book and didnt let her read it. Lets go. Its not convenient to talk here. Lets talk outside. You can treat me to a big meal while youre there!
After he finished speaking, he took the book and walked out.
Shuyin had borrowed that book from the library. If he took it away, she had nothing to return!
She quickly packed her notebook and pen, stuffed them into her bag, and jogged out.
Give Me Back My Book!
Ill return it if you treat me to a meal.
Alright, my treat! Shuyin gritted her teeth.
You cant go back to A city. You have to stay here with me!
Shu Yin was slightly stunned, then she said,I wont go back. Ill be studying here from now on.
She was afraid that she would never go to A city again.
Youre not going back even if my brother brings you back?
Shu Yin caught a word.Answer?
Yes, hes in city A now. Its very likely that hell pick you up after the arrangements are made!
Shuyin didnt know why, but she suddenly felt a pain in her heart!
Hes back?
Yup! Dont you know?
Jing Zhi was a little surprised. Didnt he tell Shuyin that his brother had returned?
My brother has been back in the country for more than a month! You dont even know? you dont care about him at all!
If he didnt tell me, how could I have known?
Shuyins expression was calm, but the pain in her heart intensified.
After a long while, the tingling sensation gradually disappeared.
He had returned to the country, but she had no idea.
No one had told her about it, and she had never tried to find out about it. Besides, where could she find out about Jing Rui?
It only took a moment for Shuyin to calm down.
Maybe in Jing Ruis heart, she was nothing, so he did not need to tell her about his schedule.
However, Jing Zhi said that he had been back for more than a month, which meant that he had left immediately after Daniels incident.
He had said that he would not interfere with her rtionship problems from now on, and he had really done it.
He hadpletely disappeared from her life, as if he had never existed, without a trace.
Shuyin suddenlyughed at herself. They were just passersby in each others lives. It was normal for them to disappear.
She had been through so much. Could it be that she still couldnt see through the so-called feelings?
Even her parents who gave birth to her and raised her could abandon her. She had no right to ask someone who had no blood rtionship with her to care for her.
She was Shuyin, the indomitable Shuyin, the Shuyin who stood out from theplex and dangerous environment!
She would definitely be able to live well on her own!
Jing Zhi wasnt a sensitive man, so he didnt notice the change in Shuyins heart. He was still talking about his brother, and he wasining about Shuyins bad taste.
Shuyin listened quietly. She didnt refute or defend herself.
Of course, Jing Rui was outstanding and charming, but she would not fall for him easily.
Just like how he would not easily fall for a woman.
From a certain perspective, they were the same kind of people.
He only believed in himself and not others.
He never believed in his feelings and always did things with his rationality.
Otherwise, the two of them would not have been able to live to this day.
Hey, hey, hey, did you hear what I just said?
Oh, what did you just say? Ill say it again, I didnt hear you clearly just now.
Jing Zhi rolled his eyes. He had no interest in continuing the conversation. Im hungry, Im going to eat!
The next evening after Jing Zhi left, Shu Yin was stopped by two tall and strong men.
Miss Shu, were here to pick you up and bring you back to A city,
Shu Yin immediately frowned.
Did Jing Rui change his mind again?
This was not his style!
Of course, it was not her style to go back with them.
He said he would go back?
This matter couldnt go on forever. Shuyin wanted to live a stable and free life. She didnt want to be stuck thinking about where to go every day.
I dont know you. Dont block my way.
Shuyin didnt know these two people. She only knew Han Feng among all the people around Jing Rui.
She was not sure if they were Jing Ruis men, but it did not stop her from making a decision.
The two men saw that she was not willing to cooperate, so they looked at each other and revealed a fierce look on their faces.
Miss Shu, you have to leave today even if you dont want to. If you cooperate, youll suffer less. If you don t, then dont me us for being rude!
As the two men spoke, they clenched their fists so tightly that they sounded like they were going to crush Shuyins bones!
Shu Yins frown deepened.
She was already suspicious of the two peoples identities, and now she was even more suspicious.
Jing Rui was not the kind of person who would go back on his words. He meant what he said when he said that he would not let her go back to A city.
Moreover, even if Jing Rui wanted to take her back to A city, he would not resort to violence.
As far as she knew, Jing Ruis men were all well-trained and would never make decisions on their own.
Shuyin took a step back without a sound and asked indifferently,Jing Rui didnt send you here, did he? Tell me, Who are you?
Yo, youre not old, but youre quite experienced! You actually saw through it!
Shuyin had actually just wanted to trick them, but she didnt expect the two of them to admit it immediately!
Chapter 1033
Chapter 1033: The strange girl
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyins scalp went numb, and she couldnt help but take another step back.
Fortunately, she only took one step back before she regained control of her body and stopped moving.
No matter what, she would not be able to outrun these two.
At this moment, it was useless to call for help. These two people were so tall and strong that they could make her unable to say a word at any time.
Shuyin tried her best to take a deep breath to maintain her rationality and calm. She said in a deep voice,I can go with you, but you have to promise not to hurt me. Otherwise, I can guarantee that before I die, the two of you wont be able to live either!
As she spoke, a small grenade appeared in her hand!
The two men jumped in shock and subconsciously moved away from Shu Yin.
Before they came, their boss had warned them that the woman they were going to catch was not easy to deal with and asked them to be careful. It was true!
How could a quiet female student carry a grenade with her!
Where did she get this from?!
Its not easy to buy it on the ck market now!
Could it be that he bought a model to scare people?
The two of them were still suspicious when they heard Shuyin say indifferently,If you dont believe me, one of you cane out and have a taste of its power.
The two of them widened their eyes at the same time. Could it be that this girl could read minds?
The two of them didnt think that they had revealed any ws, but they had only spoken two sentences, and this girl had seen through their identities. It was simply unbelievable!
One had to know that they had chosen toe today for a reason!
They had been keeping an eye on Shuyin the whole time. When Jing Zhi came to school to look for her yesterday, they had received the news as well. They even disguised themselves as students and got close to them, eavesdropping on their conversation.
That was why he used Jing Ruis name to pick Shuyin up and bring her to A city.
The n was originally wless, but he just had to encounter such an evil girl!
There were already students passing by, giving them strange looks. Shu Yin treated them like air and didnt show any emotion, only being careful and alert.
Of course, she didnt know how to read minds, but she had studied psychology. Even if she wasnt proficient in it, she could roughly guess what they were thinking from their expressions and eyes.
The grenades in her hands were the real deal. They had been given to her by Peter for self-defense. Other than these highly destructive weapons, she also had a pistol and a box of bullets in her backpack. She also had a sharp dagger and a small bottle of deadly virus on her.
Shu Yin was different from Zheng yuluo. Zheng yuluo would never bring these things with her when she went out, so after she was caught by Liao Wei, she could only pick up a de and was ready to end her life at any time.
Shuyin, on the other hand, had grown up in a dangerous environment since she was young. She had already reached a point where she was harsh when it came to protecting her own safety.
Especially after she found out that Zishan wanted her life, she was even more prepared.
How could someone from the Virus Research Institute die so easily?
Even if he died, he would definitely drag a few down with him!
Of course, Shuyin wouldnt choose to sacrifice herself unless she had no other choice. Her life was very precious, and she only had one chance. She would do her best to live, and live better!
The two men who hade to capture him were both shocked and astonished.
How could a girl be so calm and rational after being threatened?
When they did bad things in the past, which little girl didnt shiver and cry in fear?
Just their fierce looks alone could scare a timid girl silly!
The two touched their faces and wondered if they had be more handsome recently. His face didnt look fierce anymore, so he wasnt scary?
Despite his doubts, he still had toplete the mission.
Fortunately, the higher-ups had also instructed that if the other party was very cooperative, then they should not act recklessly. They could be polite to her. In the future, this girl might be one of their own.
Unless the other party was extremely uncooperative, they were only allowed to use violence.
Youre tactful! Get in the car, were leaving this ce!
Shuyin didnt let the two of them touch her. She carried her backpack, held a small grenade, and got into the car calmly.
Looking at how calm she was, those who didnt know would think that she was on a vacation!
After Shuyin was taken away, Jing Zhi drove to the school.
He went to a few of Shu Yins usual ces to look for her, but he didnt see her. He grabbed a male student and asked fiercely,Wheres the campus Belle from your school, Cheryl? Where did he go?
Ever since Shuyin entered the school, she had gained a high reputation in the school due to her outstanding looks. There were many posts about her on the school forum.
Of course, it was Jing Zhi himself who had given Shuyin the title of the schools most beautiful girl. However, ever since he came to the school and beat up all of Shuyins suitors, including two of her teachers, Shuyins poprity had skyrocketed.
Those in school who had never seen Shuyins face would at least have heard of her name.
However, they didnt know Shuyins Chinese name. They only knew her English name, Cheryl.
Although there were quite a few girls called Cheryl in the school, this male ssmate happened to be in the same ss as Shuyin. As soon as he saw Jing Zhi, he knew that he was here to see Shuyin.
Many people in the school had seen Shuyin being taken away by two strong men.
Although the male ssmate did not see her, he had heard from others that she had hooked up with another powerful man with her good looks and spent the night with him.
The male student was so scared that his teeth were chattering. He stammered as he exined how Shuyin had been taken away and managed to escape.
Jing Zhi didnt believe him. He caught six students in a row and interrogated them. Finally, he confirmed that Shuyin had been taken away.
However, no one knew who took her away. No one knew if she was willing or forced. The students all said in unison that Shuyin got into the car herself, but Jing Zhi didnt believe them easily.
He understood Shuyin. Even if she was forced, she would never want to die or cry.
He had known Shuyin for so long, but he had never seen her cry.
She never shed tears and was so strong that it made ones heart ache.
More importantly, Jing Zhi knew that Shuyin had no friends in North America!
Peter could be considered one of them, but it had been busy with other things recently and couldnt havee to the school to look for Shuyin.
And ording to the students description, the person that wasing was not Peter at all.
Even so, just in case, Jing Zhi still gave Peter a call to confirm that Shuyin wasnt at his ce.
The sky waspletely dark. Jing Zhi drove the car to Shuyins dormitory and waited quietly.
If Shuyin was fine, she should at leaste back to sleep.
If he didnte back, the possibility of something happening would be very, very high.
It was already 12 o clock, but Shuyin was still not back.
It seemed like something had happened!
Jing Zhis face darkened. He took out his cell phone and called Jing Rui.Brother, Shuyins gone!
Chapter 1034
Chapter 1034: The demonic sister
Trantor: 549690339
I know,
Jing Ruis deep voice came from the phone, which surprised Jing Zhi.You know?
Ive left someone to protect her,
Then why did you let her be taken away?
The other end of the phone was obviously silent for a while before he said indifferently,Its my mistake. In order not to interfere too much in her private life, my people kept a distance from her.
Jing Zhi didnt know what to say.
In his heart, his brother had always been the best. No matter what he did, he would always think that his brother was right.
Regarding the matter of protecting Shuyin, it was just that her brother kept his promise. Otherwise, if he tore up the agreement with Shucheng mountain, who would know about this?
Shuyin didnt know either!
On the contrary, he had repeatedly protected Shuyin without any bottom line, which made Shuyin feel that something was wrong.
Shuyin must have suspected her brothers motive for protecting her, but she trusted her brother too, so she didnt pursue the matter.
Unfortunately, this time, she had used her trust wrongly.
Her father had fought for Jing Ruis protection for her with his life.
Jing Zhis heart was heavy, but he was still worried about Shuyins safety.Brother, will youe to save her?
Im already on my way. You go to the secret room in the assassin base and bring Andrew out. Maybe we need him. Second uncle doesnt want to get involved in this matter, but second aunt has to help you. Its easy for Andrew to escape if youre alone.
Andrew?
Could it be that Andrews men were the ones who captured Shuyin?
Alright, Ill go get them immediately!
Jing Zhi was suspicious, but that didnt stop him from following his brothers orders. He just had to listen to his brother. The reason didnt matter.
The most important thing was that her brother woulde!
He was very happy!
In order to prevent anything from happening to Shuyin, Jing Rui took a helicopter to North America as soon as he received news about Shuyin from his men. He did not even have time to change out of his suit.
It would take at least ten hours to get to North America. Jing Rui was tired after a long day and wanted to change into a suit and rest for two hours.
He opened his suitcase to look for his pajamas, but as he unzipped it, a small head popped out of the suitcase, which startled Jing Rui.
Hi, big brother, prsurise!
Jing Xi came out of the suitcase and saw Jing Ruis rare stunned look. Sheughed and threw herself into her brothers arms.
Jing Rui finally came back to his senses with his sister in his arms.
This was definitely not a surprise!
This was a shock!
When did this girl get into his luggage?
Didnt han Feng notice that the suitcase was too heavy when he carried it up for him?
He didnt even know that there was someone inside?
Jing Rui turned to look at Han Feng and asked coldly,Whats going on? Why is Xixi in the box?
Han Feng was really wronged!
He had been ordered to carry the luggage for his boss. Of course, he found that the box was particrly heavy, but he couldnt open it to check. It was all his bosss personal belongings. How could he have the courage to open it without permission?
At that time, he was puzzled. Did boss bring heavy weapons with him to North America this time?
However, he was ipetent and couldnt refute it. He could only purse his lips and not speak.
Jing Xi couldnt bear to see anyone else take the me for her, so she immediately wrapped her arms around Jing Ruis neck and shook him.Brother, this has nothing to do with brother Hanfeng! I sneaked in by myself. You didnt notice your luggage, so how could he have noticed me? Do you dislike me? is that why you dont want to see me?
Hes only this old and hes already making bogus usations!
Jing Rui put Jing Xi on the seat next to him and said,Its not that I despise you, but what Im going to do this time is very dangerous. You might get hurt if you follow me!
How could this be? Dont I have big brother to protect me?
Jing Xi sat there obediently. Anyone who didnt know her would think that she was a littledy. No one would know what she was up to, let alone think that she was a little devil that everyone was afraid of.
And I know that brother Jingzhi is in North America too. Hes so powerful, Im sure hell protect me! Even if all of you are busy and have no time to take care of me, I can take care of myself! Dont worry, brother, the person who dares to bully your sister hasnt been born yet!
His tone was exactly the same as that of his father, Jing Yichen!
Jing Ruis head hurt even more.
However, he didnt have the time to deal with Jing Xi first. He had to call his father first. The little girl was missing, and his family would turn A city upside down!
Father, Xixi is with me now. Shell be going to North America with me. You and mother dont have to worry about her.
Jing Rui had thought about letting Jing Xi take another flight back to A city, but he was worried about her going back alone. Jing Xi was too young to protect herself. Even if someone protected her, she would inevitably be hurt. It was safer to keep her with him.
Okay, I got it.
Jing Yichens voice was very calm, as if he was not surprised at all.
But Jing Rui was surprised. He asked in surprise,Dad, you knew Xixi followed me into my helicopter?
Yes, I know.
Jing Rui could not help but smile bitterly,why didnt you stop her? Its not like you dont know the situation in North America. If something happens to her, how am I going to exin it to mom? Arent you afraid that mom will quarrel with you and chase you to the sofa to sleep after she finds out?
Jing Yichen, who had been calm all the time, suddenly got nervous. He said to his son,Shush, you cant let your mother know about this! What I told her was that youre taking your sister to North America for a trip, and youre not to let it slipter!
Jing Rui was speechless.
His father was not afraid of anything, but he was afraid that his wife would be unhappy!
Her mother trusted her father very much, so she would not doubt her fathers words!
Jing Rui turned around and looked at his sister, who was so excited that her eyes were shining. He had finally been defeated by his father and sister, so he said,Okay, I wont tell my mom, but I definitely cant do this next time! Im going to tell my mother if you continue to indulge Xixi!
Ever since he was young, he knew that the only person who could cure his father was his mother!
After hanging up the phone, Jing Rui saw that his sisters clothes were wrinkled and her long hair was a mess because she had been curled up in the box for too long. Little Apples hair tie hung loosely on her ponytail and was about to fall.
She must have suffered a lot in the suitcase. There was so little air in there, and he didnt know how she managed to hold on. Fortunately, she was small, otherwise, she would be in more pain in the suitcase.
His heart ached for the little girl. He had wanted to lecture her, but seeing her like this, he couldnt say anything.
Come here, Ill tie your hair.
Hey, brother, you know how to tie your hair?
No, thats why you can only make do with it if its ugly.
Jing Xi sighed.Brother, you should have a girlfriend with long hair. With a girlfriend, youll naturally know how to tie your hair. You see, daddy knows how to do it. The braids hebed for me are so pretty!
Jing Rui was speechless.
Having such a demonic younger sister, it was really painful and happy!

Trantor: 549690339
A ck off-road vehicle was speeding on the road. Shu Yin sat in the back seat and obediently followed the other partys instructions. She covered her eyes with her ck scarf.
In the dark, she heard one of the men sneer,I didnt expect you to be so tactful, youve saved us brothers a lot of effort! The reward for this mission was high, and it was so easy. It was really rare! Youd better be obedient, or youll suffer!
Its obvious that using force will not benefit either of us! Shuyin held the small grenade in her hand tightly and replied indifferently.
Even if he used the grenade today and escaped, the other party might repeat the same trick tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and every day in the future.
It would be better to solve the problem today.
She had already guessed who the mastermind was.
Of course, Shuyin wasnt an obedient person. She was just testing the waters.
The results of the test proved that as long as she didnt act rashly, the other party didnt have any intention of making things difficult for her.
This result calmed her down slightly.
At the very least, it wasnt a situation where she would die the moment they met. It was better than what she had expected. Of course, she had to seize the opportunity and would not fight head-on with the other party.
Perhaps it was to prevent being tracked, they would change cars every once in a while.
By the time they switched to the fourth car, Shuyin estimated that they had already been driving for at least three hours.
Where did he go after driving so far?
Shuyin had a very strong sense of direction. Even if her eyes were covered, she could still tell that they were constantly changing directions.
However, it was useless to have a sense of direction. It was also useless to be able to roughly calcte the distance and time. She was not familiar with North America at all and she had no idea where she was going.
Shuyin was only allowed to take off the scarf covering her eyes after she was brought into a room and sat down.
Shu Yin only needed a nce to know that this was a small wooden house in the suburbs.
The wooden house was old, and there was a faint moldy smell in the house.
The door wasnt closed, and there were two men in short-sleeved ck clothes standing at the door. It was a cold day, but the two of them were wearing short-sleeves, and they didnt feel cold at all. It was obvious that the two of them had extremely strong physiques.
The room was very dark, and there was only one light on top of her head. It was on the verge of falling, as if it would fall in the next second and smash on her head.
Shuyin picked a ce far away from the light and sat down. The chair she sat on creaked as if it couldnt bear her weight and was about to be destroyed.
It was old and decadent everywhere, dark and strange everywhere.
It was Shuyins first timeing to such a ce.
Life had been hard at the Virus Research Institute, but the Research Institute was very rich. Everyone had a luxurious dormitory, and the food, clothing, and amodation were all top-notch. She had never suffered when she left the Research Institute with Jing Ruis help.
This kind of gloomy and dpidated ce was the most suitable for burying bones.
Even if they died here for many years, no one would find out.
Could it be that the other party wanted to kill her here?
She carefully analyzed it and felt that the possibility was not high. Otherwise, she would not have remained unhurt.
Shuyin quietly tied the scarf around her neck. Her action was reasonable, and the two men guarding her didnt suspect anything.
In fact, this unremarkable ck scarf had been soaked in all kinds of drugs. This was a special scarf made by the Virus Research Institute and was mainly sold to nobledies and celebrities. It was very practical and popr, but of course, it was also very expensive.
Shuyin usually didnt use it. She always kept it in the waterproofpartment of her backpack to prevent the medicine from evaporating. The effect of a scarf could onlyst for a month.
But at this moment, the medicine that was attached to Yingyings body was the most suitable. It could give her a strong resistance to things like knockout drugs.
Coupled with the trace amount of virus in her body, which could help her resist the nerve paralysis drug, she could basically stay awake all the time.
She was terrifyingly calm and rational. Even in prison, she still had strong self-confidence!
She believed that she could escape!
Shuyin didnt know that Jing Zhi had already found out that she was missing, nor did she know that Jing Rui was on his way to North America.
In her opinion, no one would care if she disappeared or not. She was a loner and did not have the habit of relying on others. She also did not expect anyone toe and save her.
The unfamiliar environment, the dim lights, the oppressive room, and the fierce guard didnt make Shuyin feel fear. Her strong psychological qualities were fully disyed!
She didnt cry, she didnt make a fuss, she was calm andposed.
Once upon a time, she had also faced a situation that made her feel despair, and she had once thought of giving up.
However, she had made it through in the end!
Todays situation was not considered hopeless for her.
The two men who were keeping an eye on her realized that even though they were pointing their guns at the young girl sitting on the sofa, she remained calm.
For a girl to be so calm and rational, she was either a fool who did not know any danger, or ... She had the ability to protect herself, so she was not afraid.
It was obvious that this girl did not belong to the first category.
Pa pa pa ...
The sound of footsteps and pping suddenly came from outside the window. In the silent night, this sound was somewhat creepy.
Then, a hoarse voice sounded,This level of calmness and self-control is really amazing! For a girl to have such courage, if you can survive, you will definitely be a big Shot in the future! I have high hopes for you!
A man wearing a ck shirt and pants walked in. He was tall and his face was pale. His lips were bloodless and his ck hair covered his eyes. He looked like a vampire!
Shuyins heart skipped a beat, and her fingers trembled slightly. She almost couldnt hold the small grenade!
She was not afraid of the mans special appearance, but because she knew this man who was neither human nor ghost!
Shuyins face turned pale, but her pride wouldnt allow her to fall. She straightened her back and sat upright.
She spoke as calmly as she could,Lucas!
Oh, my girl, you still remember me. What an honor!
Lucas smiled and walked to Shu Yins side. He squatted down slowly and stared at her face. He said coldly,However, youre not as polite as you were back then. It doesnt seem appropriate to call me by my name.
The moment she opened her mouth, Shu Yins fear gradually faded. The coldness and hatred in the depths of her heart gradually drowned her.
She smiled coldly and said,then what should I call you? Foster father? Heh, youre not worthy!
Chapter 1036
Chapter 1036: The enemy
Trantor: 549690339
Little girl, have you forgotten all the kindness Ive shown you? Of course you should call me foster father. If it wasnt for me back then, how could you have your achievements today! Without me, you might not even be able to survive!
Lucas didnt seem to mind Shuyins coldness at all. He just squatted there and sized Shuyin up.Well, I havent seen you for a few years, and youve be more and more beautiful! Youre even more beautiful than your mother! Your looks have inherited your parents good points, and now you have grown into a stunner! Hahahaha!
At the end of his sentence, he seemed to have thought of something and started tough madly.
The small wooden house was almost copsing from hisughter. Dust kept falling from the roof, and the onlymp seemed to be falling.
Hearing Lucas mention her parents, Shuyins face turned pale.
She had always suspected that Lucas had killed her parents, but she had no evidence.
Many years had passed, and she was still too young when her parents died. Although she remembered her parents faces, she did not have the ability to investigate what had happened back then.
In fact, she didnt want to investigate, she didnt want to investigate.
Because she remembered very clearly that it was her mother who asked her father to send her away, and it was her father who personally handed her over to Lucas!
If there was really hell in this world, even if she had to go through fire and water, even if she had to be cut into a thousand pieces, she would still charge into hell and ask why he abandoned her!
Why did he hand her over to Lucas?
Why didnt he just kill her?
Even if he died, it would be ten thousand times better than living in Lucass hands!
She clearly remembered that her father loved her!
He would coax her to sleep, tell her stories, buy her toys, food, and new clothes!
His arms were strong and powerful. She used to think that they were her happiest and most stable Harbor!
The warmth of a fathers love still lingered in the depths of her memory!
That little bit of warmth was the only courage that supported her to live on!
At least she was once loved. She was not a little girl that everyone hated!
She was a special case in the Virus Research Institute. All kinds of memory-erasing drugs had no effect on her. No matter how much she was injected, she would remember her past!
She was smart enough to pretend that she had lost her memory and that she did not know anyone. She was pretending to be nice to Lucas.
She had always wanted to kill Lucas, not to avenge her parents, but to avenge herself!
Shuyins eyes revealed a deep-rooted hatred. She had lost control of her emotions and could no longer maintain her usual calm andposure!
She had never thought that she would see her former enemy here!
After a long while, Lucas finally stoppedughing.
He stood up slowly and looked down at Shu Yin.Cheryl, do you hate me? What, you want to kill me? I am your foster father! This is what your father said himself back then, and you also admitted it yourself! This is a fact that can not be changed!
Shuyin frowned in disgust,none of you are good people! Back then, I was young and didnt know anything. I was forced to call you foster father! Ive never treated you as my foster father!
Lucas was a lunatic and a paranoid man, and it seemed that his illness was getting more and more serious!
However, he was also a very dangerous person. Although Shuyin said that she hated him, she was actually very defensive and didnt dare to scold him too harshly.
If she angered Lucas, she would be the one suffering.
Thats wrong!
Lucas walked around the house slowly, the old wooden floor creaking as he stepped on it.
I was so good to you when you were young! I even bought you candy, coaxed you to sleep, and sang for you. Everyone in the Research Institute thought you were my biological daughter! Otherwise, do you think you can live so easily?
Shuyin couldnt refute these words.
There was a period of time when everyone in the Research Institute thought that she was Lucas daughter, so she was able to survive the most dangerous period when she first entered the Research Institute.
At first, Lucas was really good to her and took good care of her. Although he would inject the virus into her body, the dosage was strictly controlled. Once she was in pain, he would immediately stop the injection and actively treat her.
However, she had been a smart child since she was young. She knew very well that Lucass kindness to her was not true!
Every time he looked at her, his eyes would sh with excitement. At first, she didnt understand what that light meant.
When she grew up, she realized that this kind of gaze was unique to the lunatics in the Research Institute!
He had treated her as the best test subject, constantly using her to develop various viruses!
This was the fate that every child in the Research Institute could not escape.
You used me as an experiment and used me to cultivate the virus. Should I thank you? Lucas, if youre sick, do I have to be as sick as you? Youd better get the hell out of here and dont let me see you, or Ill definitely lose control and kill you myself!
Shu Yins voice was a little shrill. Her eyes were red, and her rationality was copsing bit by bit.
Just like the other children, she had been injected with a variety of viruses. Those who had never experienced the pain would never understand.
Jing Zhi, for example, suffered the most because he had the most powerful virus in his body and had been injected with the most variety of viruses.
This directly led to his hatred for everyone in the Research Institute. If he didnt kill people every day, he would be extremely irritable, and tranquilizers had no effect on him at all.
The reason Shuyins personality didnt change drastically was because of her outstanding intelligence. She had learned from a young age to use a certain virus to devour other viruses to reduce the pain in her body. Her talent quickly gained the attention of the higher-ups, and she was slowly transferred from being an experimental subject to a team that had a reserve of talents.
With her own efforts, she broke free from Lucass control. She didnt have to be injected with all kinds of viruses every day and have her blood drawn for blood tests again and again.
Cheryl, youre still as stubborn as before. What good does this do you? A girl should know whats good for her and be obedient!
Lucas was like an elder as he taught Shuyin earnestly. However, his voice was dry and made people feel ufortable.
Shuyin wasnt fooled by his appearance. She knew very well that Lucas was a person who was crazy about viruses. He was knowledgeable and had made a breakthrough in Virus Research before. He was also one of the core members of the Research Institute.
Fortunately, he was only interested in viruses and not women. Otherwise, Shuyin would not have been able to escape from his clutches.
You went through so much trouble to capture me, dont tell me its to let me acknowledge my family? Lucas, since you cant keep your word, let the person who can keep his worde out!
Chapter 1037
Chapter 1037: How did my parents die?
Trantor: 549690339
Lucass eyes shed coldly, and the smile on his face finally disappeared. His voice was dry and cold,Girls who are too smart are not very likable!
Shuyinughed coldly. If she was a little stupid, she would have died a long time ago. How could she have survived until now?
She gradually regained her calmness and her pale face returned to normal. She said indifferently,Not making you like me is the most sessful thing Ive ever done!
How do you know that I dont like you? Youre so smart, pretty, and my adopted daughter. How could I not like you?
As Lucas spoke, he was about to touch Shuyins cheek.
Shu Yin avoided his pale and dry hand in disgust.You can even torture yourself so ruthlessly that youre neither a human nor a ghost. Its clear that you dont like people at all in your life, but those deadly viruses!
Lucas, like many virus fanatics at the virology research Institute, had no interest in sex at all. In their eyes, there was no gender distinction between people. They only differentiated people by their viral immunity.
Not only did Lucas use Shuyin as an experiment, but he also used himself as an experiment, personally experiencing the different effects of different viruses.
Lucas was already over 50 years old, but other than his pale face and extremely thin body, his age could not be seen at all.
There wasnt a single wrinkle on his face, and his skin was as smooth as Shu Yins when she was 18.
He didnt even have a single strand of white hair. If he didnt say it, no one would know that he was over 50 years old.
All of this was because he had injected himself with too many viruses.
There were many viruses and toxins that could slow down the aging of humans.
Many female celebrities would use brutal poison, but it was the mostmon and the least poisonous one.
Of course, if too much of the brutal poison was used, it would also be fatal.
Lucas had also injected himself with an excessive amount of the virus, which caused his body to lose weight so quickly that he even fell into aa and almost lost his life.
He had disappeared for three years, and Shuyin had thought that he was dead. She didnt expect to see him here again!
He was cruel to others, but he was even more cruel to himself!
How could such a person like her like her!
Moreover, Shuyin wasntpletely clueless about the matters between men and women. Lucas had never looked at her with lust in his eyes, only coldness and ruthlessness. Even if he had taken care of her in the past, she would never let down her guard against such a person.
The only person she had ever trusted was Jing Rui.
Jing Ruis coldness waspletely different from Lucas . His coldness gave her an indescribable sense of security.
Lucas saw the undisguised disgust in Shuyins eyes, but he didnt seem to mind.
His hand missed, and he didnt continue to touch Shu Yin.
Just like how Shuyin understood him, he understood Shuyin too.
Shuyin was trying her best to avoid angering him, but he was also trying to avoid angering her.
This little girl was not a good person!
She was half the reason why he had fallen into such a state!
Anyway, he wasnt interested in women at all. Shuyin wasnt gentle at all, and he didnt like women who were difficult to deal with.
Lucas looked down at his dried-up fingers, and his pale face showed a touch of pride.Whats wrong with the virus? They were all treasures! Without these viruses and toxins, the death rate of humans would increase by several times! Dont you like viruses? Im afraid your research on viruses is no less than mine, and now youre starting to dislike viruses?
Im different from you!
Shuyins research on the virus was just a necessary quality of a researcher. It was to help herself get rid of the virus, unlike Lucas, who was using his own body to raise the virus!
Whats the Difference? Humans would betray, but the virus would never! Dont you hate your parents for abandoning you? When I was abandoned by my parents, can you guess what happened?
Shuyin never knew that Lucas was also abandoned by her parents!
No wonder he was so twisted!
Lucas admired the surprise in Shuyins eyes. He revealed his white teeth and smiled eerily.I found them and used them to raise the virus. I watched them beg for mercy in pain before I told them my identity. When they found out the truth, the expressions on their faces were really wonderful! Do you remember that when you were young, you would always hear two people screaming in myboratory?
Of course Shuyin remembered!
But it wasnt just two people, it was many people!
She didnt know whose scream he was referring to. In the Research Institute, people died every day, and before they died, they must have been tortured for a long time!
She used to be one of them, but she was smart and lucky enough to survive!
However, when she heard Lucass words, Shuyin instinctively felt a chill down her spine!
He mentioned his parents and screamed. Could it be ...
Well, youre a girl so smart that it makes people jealous. You guessed it right. The two voices that screamed the most in pain were my parents!
Shuyins face, which had regained some color, turned pale again in an instant!
You ... Youre not human!
After being abandoned by his parents, did he have to torture them to death in such a cruel way?
He was so cruel to his own parents, so it was clear that his ruthlessness to her was a small matter!
Although Shuyin hated her parents for abandoning her, this hatred was far from the extent that she would kill her own biological parents!
Im not human? Hahaha! If youre right, then Im not a human! But who turned me from a human into a demon? It was them! They gave birth to me, but they dont want me! Of course I wont let them have an easy time! Seeing them regret and suffering, I feel extremely carefree!
Crazy!
He was aplete lunatic!
The moment Shuyin thought about how she had managed to survive under his hands, she felt extremely fortunate!
However, with Lucass craziness, the chances of him killing her parents were very high!
She even suspected that he had tortured her parents in the same way.
The people in the Research Institute werent very normal. There were many, many of them who were extremely paranoid. Shuyin understood Lucas, so she wasnt surprised that he would kill her parents. She was just shocked that he would deliberately let them die so miserably.
Shuyins face was drained of all color. Lucas had given her too much pressure, but she still bravely raised her head and asked the question that had been bothering her the most,How did my parents die?!
Chapter 1038
Chapter 1038: Im not the one who killed them
Trantor: 549690339
Lucas sneered,what, you want to avenge them? They had abandoned you and regarded you as a burden, but you still thought about them! Ive really wasted my time raising you!
Revenge?
Shuyin had never thought of taking revenge for them.
Lucas was right about one thing-they had abandoned her, so she only treated them as strangers.
Why did she have to avenge a pair of strangers?
It was undeniable that she had been influenced by Lucas since she was a child and had no feelings for her biological parents. At first, she hated them, but as time went by, she didnt even want to hate her.
One had to put in blood, sweat, and tears to hate, and it was very torturous.
She didnt want to torture herself. She just wanted to let go of everything in the past and live the life she wanted.
She wanted to know how her parents had died, but it was just an obsession.
She had the right to know the truth!
Dont worry, Shuyin said indifferently.Even if you killed them, I wont seek revenge from you. I just want to know how they died, and ... I want to make sure they are really dead!
She didnt see her parents death with her own eyes. The information she knew was disclosed to her by people in the Research Institute. She had also spent a lot of money to slowly collect information.
Although the evidence showed that his parents were dead, what if they were not?
Seeing might not be the truth, not to mention that she had never seen it before.
Lucas stared at Shu Yin coldly and said after a long while,I know you suspect that I killed your parents, but unfortunately, youre wrong. It wasnt me who killed them. It was someone else!
Shuyin frowned slightly. She didnt really believe Lucass words.
He was a crafty person, and nine out of ten words he said were false.
Lucas could tell at a nce that Shuyin didnt believe him, and in fact, he didnt tell the truth.
Of course, he didnt kill Shu Chengshan, but he did kill Shu Yins mother!
The funny thing was that Shu Chengshan, that idiot, thought that he was extremely smart and never doubted him. He still treated him as a good brother and even entrusted his daughter to him!
If Shuyin wasnt so lucky, she would have died in his hands!
I have no need to lie to you.
Lucas didnt feel guilty at all when he lied. He vowed,
Weve already shed all pretenses of cordiality. Even if you want my life, I dont mind adding this crime. You cant kill me anyway! I didnt kill them. Theres nothing I cant admit. Im on such good terms with your father. He even asked me to be your foster father. How could I kill him? If I kill him, I wont have a good death!
His oath was indeed vicious, but Shuyin wasnt someone who would be so easily deceived.
Hearing him swear an oath, she was even more suspicious of Lucas.
This kind of oath was nothing to Lucas. He had never believed in fate, let alone heaven or hell.
Shuyin didnt notice the loophole in his words, but that didnt stop her from making the right judgment.
Hes blind! If he can trust someone like you, youre not a good person either! Even if you didnt kill him, his death must be rted to you!
Once again, Lucas was surprised by Shuyins intelligence.
Shucheng Shans death had a lot to do with him, as he was the one who rmended Shucheng Shan to Zishan.
Shu Chengshan was a killer and a money-making machine. He loved money and would do any kind of task. Other people were afraid that Jing Rui was the top killer, but he was not. So he went to kill after getting half of the Commission.
In the end, he was killed by Jing Rui. What an idiot!
Otherwise, he could get a bigger share of the money. He was sad for a while when Shu Chengshan died because no one would give him a Commission in the future!
He had Shu Yins life in his hands, so Shu Chengshan would definitely obediently give him money.
However, Lucas would not admit that he had anything to do with Shucheng Shans death.
His death, if used well, would be another sharp weapon!
Shuyin might even obediently work for him in the future!
I didnt kill your parents. Someone can testify for me! She knows who killed your parents!
As soon as Lucas finished speaking, light footsteps could be heard from outside.
Shuyin turned to look, and her pupils shrank.Zishan! Its you!
Lucas is right, Zishan smiled seductively.Girls who are too smart are indeed unlikable!
Shuyins impression of Zishan was extremely bad. Now that she saw her, no matter how beautiful she was, Shuyin didnt have any good feelings for her.
Every time he saw Zi Shan, she gave people a very different feeling. Sometimes she was cold and cruel, and sometimes she was infatuated. But today, she made people feel that she was just a flirtatious and charming woman.
She was abination of contradictions and a woman with many personalities. She was definitely not a good person.
Shuyin didnt know Zishan well, so she couldnt speak to him as casually as she did to Lucas. She said lightly,Its not that Im smart, but in North America, no one else wants me dead. Youre my only suspicion. Its just that Im surprised that Lucas is working for you. This is a venomous snake. If youre not afraid of being bitten to death, then just keep it by your side!
Tsk tsk tsk! Your method of sowing discord is quite brilliant. I originally wanted to get rid of Lucas, but with your provocation ... I suddenly changed my mind! If youre so afraid of him, I should have kept him by my side! A poisonous snake can bite others to death after being trained, dont you think so?
Zishan didnt fall for it, and Shuyin wasnt disappointed.
She believed that Zishan had never intended to drive Lucas away. It seemed like they had been working together for a long time, and she couldnt drive a wedge between them with just a few words.
However, Shuyin also began to have doubts about Zishan.
Perhaps Zishan had a part in her parents death?
If Lucas had known that Shuyins simple test had even made Zishan suspicious, he would have been even more surprised.
She was too smart!
When Shuyin saw Zishan, she heaved a sigh of relief.
The mastermind behind the scenes was indeed this ruthless female killer, and he didnt seem to be as eager to kill her as he had been thest two times they had met.
In that case, she could negotiate with Zishan.
Lucas said that you know who killed my parents?
Of course! Zishan nodded.
Lucas didnt kill him?
Sigh, Lucas is really pitiful. He protected you for so long and you still doubt him. How do you have a heart?
Shuyinughed coldly in her heart. Lucas, who had almost tortured her to death, found someone who had tried to kill her time and time again to be her witness. Did he think she was an idiot?
Chapter 1039
Chapter 1039: Hostage
Trantor: 549690339
However, Shuyin didnt expose them.
Then who killed him? she asked with a calm expression.
You want to take revenge?
Shuyins heart skipped a beat. Tonight, she had already heard Lucas and Zishan ask the same question several times.
At first, she didnt think there was anything wrong with this question, but after being asked the same question several times, there was definitely something wrong.
Revenge ... Revenge ...
Shuyin suddenly understood what they were going to do!
She had never thought of avenging her parents, but she immediately followed Zishans words and asked,You can help me take revenge?
She was indirectly admitting that she wanted to take revenge.
Zishan was very satisfied. It was a good decision to let Lucas show up tonight.
It was important to incite Shuyins hatred.
Youve only seen the tip of the iceberg of my abilities. I can easily overturn the world, let alone take revenge!
Zishan was extremely conceited when he said this, and even Lucas, who was standing beside him, seemed to agree.
Only Shuyin felt that she was too arrogant.
In her eyes, Zishan could not bepared to Jing Rui. If Jing Rui had said that, she would have agreed. After all, he had sessfully taken control of a killer organization that many people feared.
Shuyin nced at her.Alright then. Help me kill Lucas first. Let me see what youre capable of!
Lucas immediately looked at her angrily and said,Shuyin, dont be ungrateful! I already said that I didnt kill your parents! Youre looking for the wrong person to take revenge on!
Zishan patted Lucass back in a good mood and said with a smile,Alright, alright. Dont get too worked up. Lets make things clear to Shuyin. She wont suspect you anymore, right?
She turned to look at Shuyin and chatted with her as if she was a good friend she hadnt seen in a long time.Shuyin, its easy to help you kill people. Im a very strong assassin myself. However, Im sure you know the rules of our assassin world. I cant help you for nothing, you have to give me something in return!
Shuyin sneered. The main topic was finally here!
What do you want as a reward?
You!
Shuyin almost thought she had heard wrong.What did you just say?
You didnt hear wrong. Its you. I want you!
Shuyin nced at Zishan indifferently and said in a mocking tone,Did your sexual orientation change so quickly?
She had been pestering Jing Rui a while ago. Shuyin did not believe that Zishan would let go of Jing Rui so quickly.
Oh, no, what I want is your loyalty to me!
Zishan was wearing a royal blue woolen dress with a ck woolen coat on the outside. Thebination of charm and dignity made her look very beautiful.
In addition, when she spoke, she spoke in a gentle voice, restraining her entire bodys ruthlessness and murderous aura, which was quite bewitching.
People who were not vignt would be easily confused by her.
It was a pity that her opponent was Shu Yin, who was extremely wary. Her will was firm and would not be easily shaken.
Moreover, if possible, she wanted to kill Zishan! It was either you die or I live between the two of them!
Loyal to her?
She didnt have that right!
Before Shuyin could retort, Lucas said,If you follow Zishan, not only can she help you take revenge in the future, but she can also protect you and give you wealth and glory! You can build your ownboratory and research whatever you like!
Shu Yin nced at him and exposed his secret.This must be how she bribed you, right?
Lucas was so angry that he almost stepped forward to p Shuyin!
This girl was getting more and more difficult to deal with as she grew up. She had a sharp tongue and her mouth was more poisonous than a virus!
If she said a word to her, she would be so angry that she would lose a few years of her life!
Zishan stopped Lucas and said,Were just taking what we need and helping each other. I can give you everything you want, as long as you are loyal to me and work for me.
After a long time, he still did not tell her who killed her parents.
Shuyin knew that this was an important bargaining chip in the other partys hands and that he would not tell her so easily.
I cant kill people, and I dont have a lot of connections. Im afraid I cant help you.
No, she said.
No one else can help you if you can, Zishan said with certainty. Otherwise, I wouldnt have spent so much effort to find you. Youre irreceable!
The world would continue to spin even without someone, and Shu Yin didnt think that she was irreceable.
In fact, she really felt that she was of little value to Zishan.
Its not easy to get Jing Rui to protect you. Ive known him for a very long time, and I know him very well. He doesnt care about women at all, and you ... Are very special!
Although he didnt want to admit it, Zishan still said it with a smile.
She didnt know that Shuyin was Shu Chengshans daughter before, and it was her father who told her this important news.
Therefore, she thought that Jing Ruis special treatment of Shuyin was not because he liked her, but purely because of Shucheng mountain.
But no matter what the reason was, it was undeniable that Jing Rui treated Shuyin very well, and it made her jealous and angry!
Shuyin let out a soft sigh.
As expected, Zishan had not forgotten about Jing Rui.
There was a moment of pain in her heart, but she quickly recovered and said indifferently,
I think you have misunderstood me, miss Zishan. I have nothing to do with Jing Rui, not even friends. If you want to marry him, you should talk to him, not me. Im not special to him at all. Getting close to him through me is not a shortcut, but a dead end.
Ha ... Hahahaha ...
Zishan suddenly lifted the corner of her lips andughed coldly.
Marry him? No, Im going to kill him! Of course, I dont mind enjoying his masculine charm before killing him! Hes just a man. If I want him to live, hell live. If I want him to die, hell die!
Shuyin saw the ruthlessness in her eyes and suddenly felt that Zishan was really scary.
She liked Jing Rui, but she killed him because she could not have him.
Another lunatic!
It was said that the Virus Research Institute and killer organizations were ces that cultivated perverts. Now, it seemed that it was true!
But Jing Rui cant die yet. He has a hostage in my hands. I need to save the hostage before I kill him. And you will be the hostage to rece that hostage!
Shuyin finally understood. So Zishan had captured her this time to exchange her for a hostage. No wonder he didnt kill her or hurt her this time.
It was really rare to have someone who was protected by Zishan!

Chapter 1040: Escape

Although Zishan said it ruthlessly, it was not the case in her heart.
She would not give up until she had conquered a cold, proud, and powerful man.
She did not want Shuyin to kill Jing Rui. She wanted Shuyin to be heartbroken and hate Jing Rui for the rest of her life. There was no way that they could be together!
No matter how smart Shuyin was, she wouldnt have expected Zishan to have such a n.
However, whatever Zishans ns were, it had nothing to do with her, so she didnt take it to heart.
She knew her ce very well. She was just a passerby in Jing Ruis heart.
Miss Zishan, since your hostage has been held by Jing Rui and you want to save him, it means that he is a very important person. Im afraid it is impossible to exchange me for him. Youre overestimating me!
Wont we know if Im overestimating him after we try?
Theres no need to try. I wont be the hostage.
Shuyin would not use this to test Jing Rui. She knew very well what kind of person Jing Rui was, and she did not want to ruin the friendship between them because of this.
Zishan was a little surprised. She had thought that Shuyin would use this opportunity to test Jing Ruis feelings for her.
She was actually willing to give up such a good opportunity!
With her cooperation, it would be very easy to probe.
The smile on Zi Shans face quickly disappeared, and a trace of fierceness appeared on her beautiful face. She coldly said,What, miss Shu doesnt want revenge anymore? Im the only one in the world who can avenge you. Your enemies are much more powerful than you think! He might even want to kill you!
Since you said that the other party is very powerful, then its naturally easy for him to kill me. You havent killed me yet, so it seems that you dont put a small shrimp like me in your eyes.
Shuyin said as she looked up at Lucas.
Her meaning was clear. She suspected that the demon who killed her parents was right in front of her.
Zishan didnt expect Shuyin to be so difficult to deal with!
Her already little patience ran out, and without thinking, she raised her hand and pped Shuyin.
Pa! A crisp sound was heard. Shu Yin was suddenly pped by Zishan and fell from her chair to the ground.
Zishan was an elite who had been carefully trained in an assassin organization. She looked thin, but she was actually quite strong.
Shuyins face quickly swelled up. She felt a burning pain on her cheeks, and even her ears were buzzing from the Zishans beating.
Shuyins mouth quickly filled with the taste of blood, but she didnt seem to feel it. She got up from the ground and stood straight. She suddenly smiled and said in a cold voice,
Hit me? Why dont you just kill me? Hehe, Zishan, you killed my parents, and now you want to use me? Jing Rui looked down on you, and youre angry? Do you know why Jing Rui doesnt even want to look at you?
Zishan raised her hand and was about to give Shuyin another p, but Shuyin grabbed her wrist.
Although her reaction speed and strength were not as good as Zi Shan s, she had been on guard against Zi Shans next attack.
Because youre especially dirty! Because you have no humanity! Only the devil would like a woman like you!
Zishan waspletely infuriated by Shuyins words and kicked Shuyin out of the window of the small wooden house.
Shu Yin grunted and spat out arge mouthful of blood.
Fortunately, the ground outside was rtively soft, and there was ayer of dry grass, otherwise she would have fainted from the fall.
The pain was unbearable, as if her internal organs had shifted positions. However, Shuyins ability to endure pain was extraordinary. As long as she wanted to, she couldpletely ignore the pain!
The moment she fell to the ground, she threw the small grenade in her hand into the small wooden house. She had been waiting for this opportunity to be kicked out by Zishan.
BOOM! The old wooden house was instantly torn into pieces. The explosion almost deafened everyone.
However, a small grenade could hurt Lucas, but it would be difficult to hurt Zishan.
Shuyin had just gotten up from the ground when Zishan was already in front of her.
Without thinking, Shuyin took out a small bottle from her backpack and threw it at Zishan.
It was a transparent ss bottle that contained a light blue liquid. Although Zi Shan didnt know what it was, she instinctively wanted to avoid it.
However, the small bottle exploded right in front of her. The blue liquid in the bottle seemed toe to life and rushed toward Zi Shan.
Lucass dry and hoarse voice could be heard.Thats a virus! Be careful!
Zishan was shocked and quickly retreated, but it was toote.
A part of the virus had already burrowed into her skin. The inconspicuous blood vessels under her snow-white skin quickly turned a demonic blue!
Shuyin carried the backpack that she had always carried with her and ran out desperately.
Zishan wanted to chase after her, but Lucas, who was in a sorry state and bleeding from the corner of his mouth, immediately stopped her.You cant move! This was one of the most powerful viruses in the Research Institute. The more you moved, the faster they would spread! If you want to live, then quickly let out your blood!
Zishan had a certain understanding of viruses and knew how powerful they were.
He didnt dare to move, but immediately followed Lucass suggestion and cut open the blood vessel to let out the blood.
Shuyin knew that as long as Lucas was around, Zishan would definitely know how powerful the virus was, and she wouldnt be able to chase after her personally.
Those who were chasing her now should be Zishans subordinates.
Shuyin held her gun and knife in her hands. She ignored the pain in her body and ran through the gloomy forest.
The power of the small grenade was not small. She was so close to it, but she was also affected.
She just didnt expect that Zishan could run out so quickly without any injuries!
The elites trained by the assassin organization were indeed worthy of their reputation. Although Zishan looked extremely delicate, she was actually very hardworking in her studies.
In order not to expose her position, Shu Yin tried not to shoot if she could.
Once someone got close to her, she would first show weakness and pretend to be captured. Then, she would use another secret ability of hers that she had never shown to anyone, to induce hypnosis.
She had learned how to hypnotize people since she was young.
She was extremely talented and had once received her fathers careful guidance, so she had a solid foundation.
After she entered the Research Institute, she studied and studied by herself. Now, her hypnotism ability was very powerful.
She could hypnotize an ordinary person in a few seconds. It might be more difficult for people with strong willpower, but she could still sessfully hypnotize them.
So far, she had never failed to hypnotize anyone she wanted to.
Of course, she did not dare to hypnotize Zishan.
In the assassin organization, there was a training course that specifically targeted hypnosis.
Even if she could sessfully hypnotize Zishan, it would take a lot of time and energy. Shuyin didnt dare to take the risk.
Chapter 1041
Chapter 1041: Who did it?
Trantor: 549690339
As the sun rose, a thin mist enveloped the earth. The sun asionally passed through the clouds and mist, casting speckles of light and shadow on the forest. The gloomy forest was no longer like hell, but had the aura of the human world.
The forest seemed to have no end. Shu Yin ran for a long time, but she still couldnt get out.
Shuyin had no experience in surviving in the wild. If it wasnt for her strong sense of direction and memory, she would have lost her way.
Even if she could tell the direction, she had been running for her life for more than an hour. She was exhausted, and the vast forest had no end. It made Shuyin feel despair.
Because Zishan had kicked his stomach, the pain was unbearable. When he fell to the ground, he felt as if all the bones in his body were about to break.
If it were any other girl, this kind of pain would have tormented her to death. Only Shuyin, who had been tortured by the pain of the virus since she was young, could grit her teeth and continue moving forward.
The only thing that made her feel slightly relieved was that she seemed to have shaken off those people who were chasing her.
Those who were hypnotized by her would have to sleep for at least five to six hours. If they were forcefully woken up from their hypnotism, they would also feel like they were dreaming and would want to continue chasing her. The possibility of that was very low.
After a sleepless night without a drop of water, being seriously injured, and running for so long, Shu Yins physical strength was almost exhausted.
Shuyin couldnt help but smile bitterly. No matter how much she thought about it, she forgot that she was a human. She needed to eat and drink. Other than her textbooks, there were only guns and bullets in her backpack. There was no food at all. Of course, in order to reduce the weight, she had already thrown away all the textbooks in her backpack.
She was extremely thirsty for water and wanted to eat her favorite chicken wings.
Unfortunately, there wasnt even a single feather, let alone a chicken wing.
It seemed that she could not only keep weapons in her backpack in the future, but she also had to prepare food and water.
Shu Yins legs felt as heavy as lead. She was exhausted and in pain. She could no longer hold on and sat down under a big tree to recover her strength.
The cold morning wind blew, and Shu Yin shivered.
She was wearing a thick coat and had been running for so long. She shouldnt be cold, but she was so cold now. It could only mean that she had a fever.
Shuyin didnt mind. It was just a normal fever, and she could handle it with the virus in her body.
Although they had once tortured her to the point where she wished she was dead, after she became their true host, the benefits these viruses brought her were too many to count.
At least in this current situation, they were all ying their role, protecting her body and not letting her fall so quickly.
She was starving. Shu Yin looked around and saw that there were small mushrooms growing on the big tree beside her.
Because mushrooms were actually fungi and often poisonous, the virology research Institute had a special research area on mushrooms.
Although Shuyin didnt recognize the wild mushroom in front of her, she could tell from the knowledge she had learned that it should only contain a small amount of poison. It would cause pain, but it wouldnt kill.
Of course, if he ate it raw, the poison would definitely intensify.
She knew that if she ate the mushroom, she would be slightly poisoned, but if she didnt eat it, she wouldnt have the strength to run. She gritted her teeth and ate the mushroom raw.
The fresh little mushrooms tasted good, and because they contained moisture, Shuyin finally felt better in her throat.
However, she didnt dare to eat too much. The poison would paralyze her central nervous system, and she would faint if she ate too much.
However, Shuyin had overestimated her own body and underestimated the amount of poison in the small cluster of mushrooms.
In less than half an hour after she set off again, her vision started to blur and her limbs were stiff.
Her strong will could not ovee her bodys instinctive reaction. Under the double effect of pain and poison, she fainted.
But before she fainted, Shuyin instinctively chose a spot with dense grass.
After she fell, the grass covered her body. It was hard to find her without approaching.
However, Shuyin was lucky. The moment she fell, someone still saw her.
Brother, someone fainted over there! I saw her lying in the grass!
For some reason, Jing Rui instinctively felt that the person his sister had seen was the one he was looking for.
Xixi, where is she? where is she?!
Jing Zhi, who was in the helicopter, also thought that it might be Shuyin. They had received news that there had been an explosion and gunshots two hours ago, so they had rushed over without hesitation.
He held Jing Xi in his arms and asked anxiously.
It was as if Shuyin was very important to Jing Zhi.
Jing Xi suspected that her cousin was in love with the girl they were looking for, but it was not the time for gossip. Although she was young, she knew what was important and what was important.
She directed the helicopter to turn around and fly back to the weeds after a few degrees.Its nearby! Shes wearing a light coffee-colored jacket, which is a little simr to the color of the grass. Look carefully!
The helicopter had been hovering in that area, and Jing Xi was the only one who had seen Shuyin. She remembered the location very clearly, so she was the first one to find her.
Over there!
Shuyin!
Jing Zhi only needed one look at Shu Yins backpack to confirm that the girl lying in the grass was her.
Inside the cabin, Peter also recognized Shuyin. It had spent the most time with Shuyin and could recognize her just from her back view.
Jing Zhi and Jing Rui were already used to Jing Xis intelligence, but this was the first time Peter had seen this eight-year-old girl. It was slightly surprised to see that she was so organized and had a strong sense of observation.
He had thought that it would be too dangerous for Jing Rui to bring his sister along, but now it seemed that the little girl was their Lucky Star.
Otherwise, they might have missed Shu Yin.
Jing Rui did not say a word from the beginning to the end. But when he found Shuyin, he immediately ordered the helicopter tond and was the first to get out of the helicopter. He walked to Shuyin and picked her up in his arms.
Shu Yin, who was lying in his arms, was breathing weakly. Her ck hair was in a mess, and there was a clear palm print on her pale face.
Clearly, someone had pped her.
Jing Ruis heart ached.
Who did it?
Are you tired of living?
With Jing Xi in his arms, Jing Zhi and Peter got off the ne and walked over to Jing Rui.
The three of them saw the palm print on Shuyins face at the same time.
Because the handprint on Shu Yins pale face was too obvious!
Jing Xi looked at her brother holding a beautiful girl in his arms. She couldnt help but look at him in confusion. Did her brother like this girl too?
But it didnt look like it!
Jing Zhi had been talking about Shuyin the entire time, but her brother hadnt said a word.

Chapter 1042: Big brother has opened his aperture
Trantor: 549690339
Seeing Shuyin like this, Jing Zhi was furious!
Which bastard did this! If he dares to touch Shuyin, Ill send an assassin to kill him!
Jing Ruis expression was cold. He held Shu Yin tightly and looked around. He saw a few ck dots in the distance.
He said coldly,ah Chi, the people who touched Shuyin are here. Ill leave them to you. Peter will take a look at Shuyin first. Her pulse is weak and there are signs of poisoning.
The three of them were stunned at the same time. The person who took Shuyin away was here? Jing Rui actually knew about pulse reading?
However, this was clearly not the time to worry about this.
Jing Zhi answered dejectedly, Dont worry, brother, leave these people to me!
Leave a few alive!
Alright!
Jing Zhi put Jing Xi down on the ground and disappeared into the dark spot.
With hisbat strength, no matter how many people the other party had, he would lose without a doubt.
Jing Rui carried Shuyin and brought Jing Xi back to the helicopter. Peter began to examine Shuyin.
He had studied viruses for many years and soon discovered that Shuyin had been poisoned.
It should be food poisoning. Ill give her a simple gastricvage.
The helicopter was equipped with some of the necessary drugs. Peter had also brought some with it, so it could easily induce vomiting.
After Shuyin finished vomiting, Peter said with certainty,Thats right, food poisoning!
Because Shuyin had only eaten the mushrooms for about half an hour, the mushrooms hadnt been fully digested yet.
It looks like Shuyin was too hungry and thirsty, so she ate these wild mushrooms. With her knowledge, she must have known that eating these mushrooms raw would cause poisoning, so she only ate a little.
Peter took out a pack of saline and skillfully administered an IV to Shuyin.
She shouldnt have been poisoned so badly, but she was injured and severely dehydrated, so she fell into aa. Fortunately, she was fine. After the poison was discharged, she was fine. However, her internal organs should have been damaged. She needs to be sent to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. Otherwise, the internal bleeding will only get worse.
Jing Rui was sitting next to Shu Yin, listening to Peter with an indifferent expression. He said,Alright, he said.
Jing Xi was standing beside her brother. She ran to get a spoon and a ss of water for Jing Rui.Big brother, please feed this big sister some water! Didnt they say that she was dehydrated? Shes even eating poisonous mushrooms, she must be very thirsty!
Jing Rui saw through his sisters thoughts at a nce. If it were not for Shuyins terrible condition, he would have apuded his sister.
The first time he met Shuyin, his sister was already won over by her?
He had never seen the little girl speak up for anyone like this before. When they were in A city, Jing Xi would be very unhappy whenever any woman tried to get close to him, and she would always help him drive them away.
Why didnt she hate Shuyin?
Looking at Shuyins pale face and dry lips, Jing Rui held her head from behind and let her lean against him.
Ill support her, you feed her.
Jing Xi was surprised to see her brother holding Shuyin in his arms without any hesitation.
It was understandable for him to carry Shuyin back just now, but now that he was still holding her in his arms, it was clear what the problem was.
Shuyin couldnt be considered clean at this moment. Not only were there weeds on her body, but she was also covered in mud and her hair was also a mess.
Didnt her mother say that her brother was the same as her father? they both had serious mysophobia and didnt like others touching him?
It seemed that the beauty in front of him was not just anyone!
Big brother has finally opened his mind!
As his younger sister, she could be less worried!
Jing Xi held the cup and walked forward happily. She carefully mimicked her mother and fed Shuyin the water spoonful by spoonful.
Peter was mixing the antidote and preparing to inject Shuyin with the antidote while watching the siblings serve Shuyin.
He couldnt help but sigh in his heart. In the whole world, Shuyin was probably the only person who could be taken care of by these two siblings! Even Jing Zhi had never received such treatment.
He had never seen Jing Rui being so attentive to a girl!
It didnt take long for Jing Zhi to return with a murderous aura. His white shirt was stained with blood, and even his handsome face was stained with blood.
However, it was clear that the blood was not his, but the other party s.
Brother, I didnt leave a single one alive. After they saw that I caught two people, they allmitted suicide by taking poison! The two that were caught were also dead, and they were infected with a virus unique to the Research Institute! Theres no way to stop it!
Jing Ruis face darkened. It seemed that the other party knew that he woulde and find them, so they had even taken protective measures.
Its fine. Lets go back first. When Shuyin wakes up, she can tell us. Itll be the same.
Although the mastermind would definitely be gone by then, he couldnt let Shuyins hurt get worse.
The helicopter took off quickly andnded on the top floor of a hospital. Jing Rui entered the hospital from the rooftop with Shuyin in his arms.
After some resuscitation, Shuyins condition finally stabilized, and her heart rate returned to normal. Other than a slight fever, she was no longer in any danger.
She was sent to a single Ward with Jing Rui and Jing Zhi by her side. Jing Xi, on the other hand, had been too excited to sleepst night. She was sleeping in another bed.
Peter was running up and down outside to handle the hospitalization procedures and even went to find Shuyins attending doctor to have a chat. It was not afraid that the doctor would not be able to treat Shuyin, but that the virus in Shuyins body would infect the doctor.
Fortunately, the doctors were afraid of getting infected during the surgery and would take all kinds of protective measures in advance, so the attending doctor did not feel anything wrong.
It was very quiet in the ward, and Shuyins painful moans from time to time were very clear.
She was deep in a painful dream, and the pain in her body made her curl up instinctively.
The high fever made Shuyin a little delirious. She instinctively hugged the corner of the nket and murmured in a low voice,Daddy ...
The two men who were guarding her froze at the same time.
After a long while, Jing Zhi looked at Jing Rui worriedly and said,Brother, this ...
Its fine. Shes just dreaming.
It was not the first time that Jing Rui had heard Shuyin call him father, so he was moreposed than Jing Zhi.
Shouldnt she have lost her memory like me? Why would I remember ...
How could he remember his father?
One had to know that he didnt remember anything back then!
Otherwise, how could he have endured so much pain and engraved the word brother in his palm?
However, even if he had engraved it on his palm, he actually didnt remember that he had an older brother at all!
Why did Shuyin remember?
How much could she remember?
Jing Rui looked at Shuyins pained expression and frowned. He said calmly,Perhaps she remembers some fragments of the past.
Chapter 1043
Chapter 1043: One for each
Trantor: 549690339
Then what should we do? What if ... She wants to find her parents?
Jing Zhi lowered his voice, afraid that Shuyin would hear him.
In reality, Shuyin couldnt hear anything at all. She was struggling in the abyss of pain.
Jing Rui shook his head and said in a low voice,I dont think so.
At least he knew that Shuyin had never looked for her parents, nor had she ever mentioned them.
She was very indifferent to her parents, even indifferent.
If she wanted to find them, even if she had to find their bones, Shuyin would have already started looking for them. She wouldnt have waited until now.
But Jing Zhi was still worried. He didnt want to be enemies with Shuyin.
Other than his brother, Jing Zhi only had two other friends. One of them was Peter, and the other was Shuyin.
He had enjoyed getting along with her, but if they became enemies, Jing Zhi didnt know if he should attack Shuyin.
Big brother, when Peter gets back, we should ask him about Shuyins condition. She used to be in a better state, so I dont feel at ease with her like this.
Jing Zhi also wanted to keep the secret of Shucheng mountain a secret forever. The hermit was dead anyway, and it was purely his own fault. Even if Shuyin found out, nothing could be changed, so it was better not to let her know.
After Peter returned from outside and saw Shuyin sleeping soundly, it felt a lot more rxed.
In fact, in terms of their rtionship, Shuyin was the closest and the best.
After all, the two of them had worked together for many years. He could be said to have watched Shuyin grow up, and she was both a teacher and a friend. Among the people who came out of the Research Institute, only the two of them were still in contact with each other. Of course, he didnt want anything to happen to Shuyin.
The three men were worried that Shuyin would overhear their conversation inside, so they moved outside the ward to talk in low voices.
Shuyins memory was erased the moment she entered the Research Institute, but ... It didnt work at first. It only worked after a few more injections. However, this medicine doesnt always work in one try. When I gave it to Jing Zhi, I had to repeat it many times before he couldpletely forget about the past.
Peter felt that it was possible that Shuyin still retained some of her memories. After all, not everyone wouldpletely forget about the past.
Jing Zhi hadpletely forgotten about it because he was the focus of the Research Institute. He had been injected with thergest amount of medicine andsted the longest.
You mean, Shuyin remembers the past?
Jing Zhi couldnt help but frown.I heard her call me dad in her dream today.
Shuyins foster father Lucas might remember her. He didnt care if Shuyin had her past memories, so he didnt check if she had lost her memory. Because Shuyin had been sent to the Research Institute by her father, even if she had memories, she would never acknowledge her father again. On the contrary, with this kind of hatred, she will be even more loyal to the Research Institute.
After all that Peter had said, only that one line,it will not acknowledge her as its father anymore, made Jing Zhi feel veryfortable.
Of course, Jing Zhi knew who Lucas was. He had been in the Research Institute for so many years, and he remembered every paranoid person there.
Lucas was one of the most paranoid. It was said that he even used his own parents to do viral experiments. The couple, as well as Lucass brother, were all tortured to death by him.
It was a miracle that Shuyin could survive in his hands!
Jing Rui also knew about Shuyins foster father Lucas, and he knew much more than Shuyin and Jing Zhi.
Before he decided to use Shuyin, Jing Rui had done a thorough investigation of her.
The most dangerous person around Shuyin was Lucas. If Shuyin was as inhumane as he was and could attack anyone she wanted, Jing Rui would not use someone like that.
Peter still did not know about Shu Chengshans suicide because it had always thought that Shuyins parents had died a long time ago. But when he saw the worried look on Jing Zhis face, it was as if he was afraid that Shuyin would remember the past. He couldnt help but wonder if Shuyins parents were still alive.
But Jing Rui remained indifferent the whole time, so Peter did not ask him anything.
Jing Rui would tell him everything he needed to know.
In any case, these two brothers would definitely not harm Shuyin.
The three of them talked for a while outside and came to the conclusion that Shuyin might have memories of her past. Jing Ruis expression turned even colder.
Shuyins body was fine now. The hospital was not a good ce to recuperate. It was not safe here. Jing Rui and Jing Zhi carried one each and returned to the helicopter on the rooftop.
Although Jing Xi was young, she was very alert. She woke up as soon as Jing Zhi carried her away.
When she saw Jing Zhi in her arms, she called him second brother in a sweet voice.
Jing Zhis heart melted when he heard her. He thought that this little girl was so pretty and cute that he wanted to keep her by his side every day.
But in the following week, Jing Zhi regretted his decision countless times.
This girls cuteness and obedience were all temporary and short-lived. She was too good at causing trouble!
Jing Xi knew that her appearance was deceiving, and she was very happy to see her second brother pampering her.
Aiya, he had another big backer in the future! If she went out to fight, she would be invincible with second brother!
However, when Jing Xi looked up and saw her brother in front of her, her gossiping cells immediately became active, and she was no longer sleepy!
Second brother, why are you the one hugging me and not my brother? Cant you just hug that big sister?
Jing Xi blinked her big eyes, as if she didnt understand anything.
But Jing Zhi knew how smart she was. He grinned.Little girl, you should ask our brother about this! Im so stupid, how would I know why Im the one carrying you?
As he spoke, he held Jing Xi in one arm and pinched her little nose with the other.Little human spirit!
Jing Xi didnt care at all. She justy on Jing Zhis body and giggled.
She was very happy to be carried by second brother. She didnt want second brother to carry Shuyin! Otherwise, it would be troublesome if her two brothers both liked the same girl!
Anyway, second brother was so suave, handsome, and carefree. He definitely wouldntck a girlfriend in the future!
Jing Rui, who was walking in front, was not deaf. He heard everything they said, but he did not change his expression at all, as if the naughty sister and Qianqians brother were not talking about him.
Theynded in front of Jing Ruis newly bought vi. Jing Rui was still carrying Shu Yin, Jing Zhi was still carrying Jing Xi, and Peter followed behind. They entered the vi.
Han Feng came out from inside and saw his boss carrying Shu Yin. He acted as if he didnt see anything and quickly exined theyout of the vi in a low voice.
Chapter 1044
Chapter 1044: I dreamed of you again
Trantor: 549690339
The vi had been bought by Jing Ruis men after he left North America. It was not eye-catching, but it was very safe. It had all the facilities and most importantly, it was very close to Jing Zhis small vi, only a ten-minute walk away.
Jing Xi had a good nights sleep and was very energetic. Jing Zhi was the kind of person who would not feel tired even if he did not sleep for a few days.
Jing Xi wanted to go to Jing Zhis house to y, and Jing Zhi wanted to take Jing Xi back to y with his parents.
The brother and sister hit it off!
With Jing Zhis protection, Jing Xi would not be in any danger, so Jing Rui let her have her fun.
Peter had not officially paid a visit to Jing Zhis parents yet, so it went along with them.
Only Shuyin and Jing Rui were left in the new vi.
Han Feng had sent more men to guard the area and waited outside with his brothers, waiting for Jing Ruis orders.
The bedroom was decorated simply and heartwarming. The nkets and pillows were all new, and there was a bouquet of fresh lilies ced at the head of the bed, exuding a refreshing fragrance.
It was obviously not decorated by Han Feng, but by a servant.
Shuyins face was pale as shey on the bed, still unable to sleep well.
The handprint had faded a lot. It was no longer red and swollen, and in its ce was an obvious bruise.
The bruises were so serious that it was obvious how hard the person who hit her had hit her.
Jing Rui was furious.
The person he was supposed to protect was injured, and it was a very serious injury.
She had been forced to eat raw poisonous mushrooms to wrap her stomach. Her beautiful hands, which were originally like suet Jade, were covered in wounds of various sizes. They must have been cut by the nts in the forest while she was running for her life.
If Shu Chengshan knew about this, he would have to climb out of hell to kill.
Shu Chengshan believed that he would keep his promise and protect Shu Yin, so he was willing tomit suicide.
Unfortunately, he had broken his promise.
Jing Rui took out the ointment that Peter had given him, squeezed out a little, and applied it gently on Shuyins hand.
Her slender fingers, beautiful back of her hand, and soft palm were all covered in scars. It was a shocking sight, and one could not help but feel heartache at the sight.
Shuyin was already sleeping restlessly, and the sharp pain in her palms and fingers woke her up.
The curtains in the bedroom were not drawn, and the afternoon sun was a little ring.
As soon as Shuyin opened her eyes, she was forced to close them by the strong light. She subconsciously tried to cover her eyes with her right hand.
However, she didnt seed in raising her hand, because it was held by another hand.
A low and indifferent voice sounded in his ears,Youre awake?
The familiar aura, the familiar voice, and even the indifference were as familiar as ever.
Shuyin felt like she was dreaming. She must have been running in the dark for too long and being chased by those people for too long, so she was hallucinating!
She was in North America, and he was in city A. How could he be by her side?
After getting used to the bright light, Shuyin opened her eyes and looked at the handsome and familiar face. She muttered,I dreamed of you again ...
Jing Rui raised his eyebrows.
Again?
His heart skipped a beat. Seeing Shuyin close her eyes again in a daze, Jing Ruis lips curled into a smile.
However, the next second, Shuyin opened her eyes again and stared at Jing Rui in shock.Y-y-you ... Youre real!
Jing Rui was amused. If he was not real, how could he be fake?
No, that was not right. There was indeed a fake Jing Rui still alive.
Shuyin sat up immediately, but her movements were too violent and pulled on the injuries in her body. It hurt so much that she immediatelyy down and curled up.
Jing Rui had already let go of Shuyins hand. Seeing her get up in such a hurry, he couldnt help but say,Youre injured, dont move!
Shuyin took a while to calm herself down before she could endure the pain.
She turned her head slightly and looked at Jing Ruis face, which was right in front of her. Then she looked around and asked in a low voice,You saved me?
Yes, Jing Rui nodded.
Shuyin didnt know what kind of feeling she was having. In the end, she was saved by him.
Zishan had actually guessed it right!
Hes really here!
Didnt you go back to A city?
I came back yesterday.
Why?
The reason is already very obvious.
Jing Rui looked calm and did not show much emotion on his face, as ifing all the way from A city was nothing.
Shuyin was silent for a moment, then said softly,Thank you, he said.
She clearly remembered that she had fainted in the grass because she had been poisoned by eating raw mushrooms.
If no one saved her, even if she didnt die from the poison, she would be taken away by Zishans men again.
Thinking of Zishan, Shuyins gratitude disappeared by half!
It was all because of Jing Rui that she had been in so much painst night.
Zishan had fallen for Jing Rui, and she thought that Jing Rui liked her, so she kept causing trouble for her.
The person who wants my life is Zishan!
Yes, I guessed it.
Didnt you say that youll take care of her? Why does she still misunderstand our rtionship? youre the one who got into trouble, and Im the one who has to suffer. This is so unfair!
Jing Rui looked at her quietly and finally said,I wont do it again.
It was better for him to keep her by his side in the future. He had only been away for more than a month, and she had already met with an ident!
Zishan was not his only enemy.
Speaking of which, Shuyin had indeed been implicated by him. Otherwise, Zishan wouldnt have taken a girl like her, who wasnt much of a threat, to heart.
Jing Ruis promise did not sound convincing, and Shuyin was not at ease.
She couldnt expect Jing Rui to save her every time.
Furthermore, even if they were counting on him to save them, they might not be able to.
If she didnt have so many tricks up her sleevest night, she would probably still be in that small wooden house, her life or death unknown.
I dont know if therell be any trouble in the future, Shuyin said lightly.At least Zishan wont be able to find trouble for now. Shes been infected by the virus. Even if she doesnt die, shell be half-dead.
When she said this, she seemed very heartless. Coupled with her cold face, there was a chilling and shocking power.
But Jing Rui appreciated her coldness.
He didnt like kind and weak women who cried all day. In his world of bloodshed, such a girl was destined to die early!
Only with enough rationality and calmness, and not easily swayed by soft-heartedness, could one live long.
Thinking of Shuyins previous living environment, Jing Rui felt relieved.
A girl who could survive in that kind of environment must be very resourceful and would not be afraid of killing.
Well done. I can rub some salt in her wound.
Shuyin knew that Jing Rui didnt like Chinese fir. If he said to sprinkle salt, then it must be!
She was in a good mood.
Without Zishans threat, she could live a stable and free life again!

Shuyins throat hurt badly, and it was a little hoarse. She hesitated for a while, but still said,Im thirsty. I want to drink water.
Jing Rui picked up the ss and brought it to Shuyins lips.Open your mouth,
Shuyin was overwhelmed by the favor!
When did this young master learn how to serve others?!
That ... Theres no need ... Ill do it myself! She stuttered.
Shuyin said as she slowly got up from the bed. She supported her upper body with one arm and reached for the cup with the other.
When her hand was in mid-air, she noticed that her entire hand was covered in ayer of white ointment.
What happened to my hand?
She clearly remembered that her hand was fine!
Jing Rui held the cup and said calmly,Your hand is injured. Its just a small wound, so I applied some medicine for you.
When did my hand get injured ...
Shuyin only realized Jing Ruisst sentence when she was halfway through her sentence. She was extremely surprised.You applied the medicine for me?
Yes.
Jing Rui put the cup near Shuyins lips and said,So, youd better not ruin the fruits of mybor.
Shuyin looked at her hands and realized that there was ayer of ointment on both of them. If she held the cup, the ointment would definitely stain the cup.
She had identally rubbed the ointment on the nket just now.
The temptation of the water was too great for Shuyin. Before her brain could react, her body had already lowered her head and followed Jing Ruis force to drink the water.
She felt that Jing Rui was somehow gentle at this moment, which made her heart beat faster.
After drinking a ss of water, Shu Yins throat felt much better. Shey down again and said,Im hungry. I havent eaten anything for a day and a night.
What do you want to eat? Jing Rui was surprisingly good-tempered.
Chicken wings!
That wont do. Your current physical condition isnt suitable for you to eat those that are difficult to digest.
She had just had a gastricvage from food poisoning, so she couldnt eat greasy food.
Another one, Jing Rui said without thinking.
Her favorite chicken wing had been rejected by such a domineering person, so Shu Yin didnt know what to eat.
She thought for a while, but she couldnt think of anything delicious. She sighed.Forget it, you dont need to eat. Do you have glucose? Just give me an infusion.
Jing Rui frowned. Who would receive an IV when they were hungry?
You used to rely on this to survive when you were hungry?
Shuyin was stunned for a moment, then nodded. In the Research Institute, only the glucose solution was free of the virus, so he was at ease using it. Besides, its usually mixed with some vitamins and glucose, and it can solve everything.
Jing Rui suddenly got up and walked outside. He gave Han Feng some instructions and then came back to sit down. Dont use glucose in the future. Eat normally and dont be picky.
Why did his tone sound so off?
Was he showing concern for her?
Shuyin wasnt sure.
She really did not think that there was anything about her that could attract Jing Rui. She felt that he was different this time.
Shuyin suppressed her Restless Heart and told herself over and over again that it was just an illusion.
However, the next moment, her self-hypnosis copsed!
Because Jing Rui had picked up her right hand and started to apply the ointment on it again. Then, he wrapped her hand with gauze.
After he finished bandaging her right hand, he picked up her left hand, filled it with ointment, and began to bandage it.
Shuyin felt her scalp go numb!
She suspected that Jing Ruis underwear had been changed.
Otherwise, why would he lower himself to serve her?
Even if he felt guilty and med himself for what happened to Zishan, and wanted to make it up to her, he should never have used such a method!
No one in the world could force Jing Rui to sacrifice himself to make up for it!
Shouldnt his nature be to use money and force to solve everything?
Shuyins heart was in a mess!
Didnt Jing Rui know how attractive he was?
She would misunderstand if he was so good to her! She would want more!
She actually did not have any resistance to him!
She trusted him from the bottom of her heart, relied on him, and wanted to see him!
She had thought that she would forget him after not seeing him for more than a month, but she did not expect him to be a regr in her dreams!
It was to the extent that she thought she was dreaming when she woke up!
Shuyins face was slightly red. She didnt say anything she shouldnt have said in her half-awake state, right?
He probably didnt hear what she said about dreaming of him again, did he?
Shuyin was lost in her own emotions. Jing Rui had already finished bandaging her wound and let go of her hand.
A faint sense of loss welled up in Shuyins heart. This kind of loss waspletely uncontroble, and she couldnt suppress it no matter how hard she tried.
Shuyin, are you crazy? Youre possessed! Why would she miss his hand!
Shuyins face turned redder and redder, and the hand that she missed touched her smooth forehead.
Do you still have a fever?
Shuyin was instantly rooted to the spot!
The warmth of his palm seeped through the skin on her forehead and spread to her entire body!
Shuyin closed her eyes to hide the fluctuations in her emotions. However, she couldnt hide the fluctuations in her heart. She was a little flustered, a little helpless, and a little ... Sweet.
He had never felt this way before!
Whats wrong? where do you feel ufortable?
Shuyin opened her eyes, but did not dare to look at Jing Rui. She lowered her head and said in a low voice,No, I didn t,
She lowered her head and did not see the teasing look in Jing Ruis eyes. She did not know that Jing Rui had touched her forehead on purpose to ask her if she had a fever.
If he couldnt even tell if a person was blushing or running a fever, wouldnt it be a waste of his high IQ?
It was rare for someone as guarded as her to blush.
However, Shuyin really needed to rest now. Her physical injuries were not obvious from the outside, but her internal organs needed to rest slowly. Jing Rui did not provoke her any further, and only said calmly,Leave Zishan to me, you dont have to worry.
The heat on Shuyins face finally subsided at the mention of Zishan. She heaved a huge sigh of relief and quickly said,I should give it to you! She took me and said she wanted to exchange me for one of your hostages. Although I dont know what kind of hostage she is, its more important for you to keep an eye on her!
She had always had a sharp tongue, when had she ever been so helpless like now!
She had said everything in one breath without even panting. It was really hard on her!
Jing Rui had already guessed Zishans intention, and Andrew had already made arrangements. He smiled.Dont worry, Ive given her a big gift. Of course, I wont give her a hostage. But since she wants it so much, Ill give her a part of the hostage first!
Shuyin saw his smile and her heart turned cold!
He was indeed a cold and ruthless person!
But why did she feel more moved by him like this?

Chapter 1046: I cant be a man
Trantor: 549690339
Zishan finally woke up when Jing Rui and Shuyin started to eat.
However, it was better to stay unconscious than to wake up, because at least he wouldnt feel pain!
Zishan was lying on a bed, and beside her was Liao Wei, who was so scared that his face was pale and his body was trembling.
Both of them had the same blood type, but the situation was too urgent. Zishan had lost too much blood and needed a blood transfusion urgently, so Lucas had no choice but to take Liao Weis blood.
But even so, Zishan was still in a very dangerous situation.
The bottle of virus that Shuyin had thrown at her in the end was too overbearing. Even if only a small amount had entered her body, it was enough to kill her!
If it wasnt for the fact that Lucas, who was an expert in viruses, was by Zishans side, she would not have survived.
Of course, sometimes, it was better to be dead than alive.
At this moment, Zi Shan was in a state worse than death. She had always been able to endure pain, but not long after she woke up, she began to scream in pain.
Her body twitched from time to time, as if there were bugs desperately drilling in her blood vessels.
Her originally smooth skin was festering inch by inch. Her skin was split open and her flesh was bleeding non-stop.
Lucas stood by the side, helping her repair her skin and injecting new viruses into her body to fight against the original virus.
Once Zishans blood volume dropped to a critical level, Lucas would take a tube from Liao Wei and inject it into her body.
In a short while, Liao Wei had already been whipped dozens of times.
Liao Wei could clearly see that one tube was ten milliliters of blood. Having dozens of tubes drawn out meant that he had already lost a few hundred milliliters of blood!
He didnt know who Lucas was, but seeing that he was dressed in all white and wearing a Protective Mask to treat Zishan, he shouted,Doctor, stop smoking! I cant hold on any longer! Ill die if you continue!
He really wanted Zishan to bleed to death so that no one would control him or imprison him!
He couldnt forget the humiliation Zishan had brought him!
This vicious woman had made three ugly and disgusting fat women F * ck him!
Even now, he still felt nauseated when he thought about it!
He even had erectile dysfunction because of this!
Even if he saw a beautiful woman, he would not be able to get hard! He clearly liked beautiful women, but he just couldnt get her into his mouth.
It was all Zishans fault. She had caused him to be unable to be a man anymore!
This vicious woman, Why Dont You Just Die!
More importantly, the face he cherished the most had been destroyed by Zishan! She had stepped on his face mercilessly thest time, causing half of his face to be crooked and his chin to be destroyed. He had be a monster with a twisted face,pletely disfigured!
He was worthless without a face that looked exactly like Jing Rui s. That was the face that he regarded as his life!
He waspletely finished!
It would be impossible for her to pretend to be Jing Rui in the future!
And now, he even had to transfuse blood to Zishan!
He couldnt wait for this woman to die!
He wanted to run for his life, but the vampire-like pale Doctor Who had treated Zishan had given him some kind of injection. He had no strength left in his body, and he could not even lift his hand!
Lucas was fully armed, and his entire body was wrapped up. What a joke. The virus in the FIR was extremely infectious. Before he figured out the characteristics of the virus, he would not take the risk.
He treated Liao Weis begging as a fart and continued to focus on his own work.
This blue virus was a new variant that Lucas had never seen before.
The Research Institute did have this virus, but its destructive power was definitely not this strong. It was also impossible for it to actively enter the human body in the air.
He guessed that this was probably a virus Shuyin had developed herself. It had two remarkable characteristics-active aggression and extremely destructive cell destruction. These two characteristics were both very fatal.
Zishan kept screaming in pain because there was not a single spot on her body that was not in pain! The pain seeped into his bones, and even his ears and eyes were bleeding!
Lucas, on the other hand, was extremely excited to see her!
Such a powerful virus made him feel as happy as if he had picked up a piece of gold!
He muttered in his heart, Shuyin is really a talent! She could actually develop such a powerful virus. He didnt know if she had other viruses. If he had the chance, he would go and snatch a few!
Liao Wei felt very happy when he saw that Zishans fair skin was bleeding non-stop and her facial features were twisted in pain!
However, he was afraid that the doctor would drain his blood. He said in a trembling voice,
Doctor, I beg you to let me go! Ill do anything for you, I ... I have money, a lot of money. Do you know family Jing? The money of family Jing is mine, and I have a way to get it. As long as you let me go, Ill give you as much money as you want! A million! No, no, no, ten million!
Liao Wei did not know Lucas, and Lucas did not know Liao Wei either. The two of them were frompletely different worlds, and the difference in their abilities was like heaven and earth. Of course, Zishan had no reason to introduce them to each other.
Hearing Liao Wei mention the Jing family, Lucas finally reacted.
He picked up the syringe and skillfully inserted the thin needle into Liao Weis blood vessel. After a while, he drew another tube of blood. However, he did not give this tube of blood to Zishan to use, but instead prepared to keep it for researchter.
Liao Weis face turned pale and he was scared out of his wits when he saw that he had moved out of family Jing and the doctor was not moved by the high price he offered. Instead, he had lost ten milliliters of blood.
Stop smoking! If You Want Blood, Ill go out and help you find someone. O-type blood is very easy to find! Zishans men all have O-type blood!
Liao Wei and Zishan were not type O blood. They were both type A blood, but type O blood was all-purpose blood. Liao Wei thought that type O blood could be transfused to Zishan.
However, his medical knowledge was pitifullycking. Even if type O blood was all-purpose blood, he could not transfuse an unlimited number of blood types to A person with type A blood. If he transfused too much blood, blood clots would still ur. Naturally, the best blood type was type a.
Zishans underlings were all extremely fierce, and Lucas was not confident that he could subdue them all. It was easier to control a silly pretty boy like Liao Wei.
Are you a member of the Jing family?
Lucas finally spoke.
However, the first question was enough to make Liao Wei panic.
Yes, I am! He replied shamelessly.
Lucas knew Jing Zhi and Jing Rui, but he had met Jing Zhi many times. He had only seen Jing Ruis photos, but had never spoken to him.
Only then did he notice Liao Weis face. Half of his face was twisted, but the other half was still intact. He looked very much like Jing Rui!
Chapter 1047
Chapter 1047: Hatred
Trantor: 549690339
Lucas was getting excited again!
His gloved hand gently caressed Liao Weis face, and his eyes glowed with a strange light.Who are you to family Jing? Ive met the two brothers of family Jing and the little girl, but why have I never seen you? You are Jing Yichens illegitimate son?
When the rubber gloves touched Liao Weis face, it gave him a cold touch, as if he was entangled by a poisonous snake. He was extremely disgusted and wanted to vomit, but he did not dare to. He could only try his best to hold it in.
His lips were white, and he wanted to nod, but he forgot that he couldnt move.
Yes, Im his illegitimate son! He could only reply.
Liao Wei was scared out of his wits, and his eyes dodged. Lucas was a smart man, and he could tell that he was lying with one look.
He took the needle and pierced Liao Weis skin, quickly drawing out a tube of blood. He smiled viciously,Since you are a member of family Jing, I have to take more blood from you. I have never had the blood of anyone from family Jing except Jing Zhi. Not only that, Im going to cut off two of your fingers so that I can exchange them for money at family Jing when Im down and out.
Liao Wei was so scared that he almost wet his pants!
No, no, no, I have nothing to do with family Jing! I am not Jing Yichens illegitimate son! My name is Liao Wei, not Jing! When Jing Rui was an assassin in the assassin organization, I was just a substitute for him!
He had only said a few words, but this idiot had already told him the whole truth. Lucass eyes instantly dimmed, and his face was full of disgust.
It turned out that she was just a substitute, useless thing!
Since youre just a substitute, theres not much use for you to be alive! Its better for you to contribute all your blood!
As Lucas spoke, he picked up another empty syringe and drew another tube of blood.
Liao Wei even wanted to die!
If she said that she was a member of the Jing family, her blood would be drawn. If she said that she was not a member of the Jing family, her blood would be drawn.
What could he say to make this vicious vampire let him go?
For the first time in his life, Liao Wei regretted leaving family Jing and that he had been too greedy to want to be the real heir of family Jing.
When he was in A city, he could get whatever he wanted! Not only did he wear famous brands and use luxury goods, but he was also extremely ostentatious wherever he went. He managed A citys famous business empire, so mighty and domineering!
He had truly lived the life of a rich young master for seven years. He lived like a Prince and had forgotten that he was once a beggar! He had forgotten that he was only a substitute!
Now that he had been tortured outside and treated like a beast, he hade into contact with more darkness and blood. Only then did he realize how stupid he had been in the past!
The fact that Jing Rui was able to suppress Zi Shan all the time showed that he was much more powerful than her.
Even Zishan could torture him so much that he would rather die. If Jing Rui wanted to deal with him, he could do it with just a word.
He had been able to live for seven years because family Jing had been kind to him.
He finally realized that living in family Jing was like living in heaven.
Liao Wei really wanted to give himself a p. He didnt want to enjoy such good fortune, but had to be someone elses dog! How cheap was he!
Now, he could not go back to family Jing no matter what.
Jing Rui probably just wanted him dead.
Liao Wei looked at Zishan with a venomous gaze, who was screaming in pain. It was all her fault! She deserved it! Her whole body was festering, and her perfect skin was ruined! If she didnt die this time, then he would definitely let the ugliest and most disgusting man take turns with her in the future!
Zishan was in so much pain that she wished she could just die. She could not care less about Liao Wei who was beside her.
Her consciousness was sometimes clear and sometimes blurry, and she felt like she was struggling in hell!
What was supporting her was a monstrous hatred!
She had to live on. She had to live on and kill Shuyin!
After enduring a round of pain, Zi Shan was slightly more awake. She was extremely thirsty and weakly called out,water.
Lucas didnt have the time to feed her water. He had never done this kind of service before. Zishan was not a threat to him at this moment, and she had to rely on him for everything, so he would definitely not serve her.
Let her be thirsty. At most, her throat would be dry and smoke would affect her voice in the future. Anyway, she would not die.
He pretended not to hear Zishans words. While she was still awake, he said in a dry voice,Zishan, you owe me a big favor this time. Youd better think about how to repay me. You know what kind of person I am. Without enough benefits, I wont work for free!
Zishan had been working with him for a long time, so she knew Lucass character. She endured the pain in her body and said in a weak voice,I can give you more experimental funds! We can catch more children for you to experiment on!
Then, how much do you think your life is worth?
Ill give you 100 million, no more than that!Zishan gritted his teeth.
When Liao Wei heard Zishan offer 100 million, he finally realized how stupid he was when he wanted to buy over this vampire with a million!
Lucas smiled,good, thats great! However, other than money, I also want a person!
Zishans facial features immediately twisted.No! I cant give her to you. Ill deal with her myself! Im going to kill her!
She knew that the person Lucas wanted must be Shuyin!
Other than Shuyin, no one else could make Lucas so interested!
Kill her?
Lucasughed dryly. Hisughter was ear-piercing and unpleasant to the ears. Liao Wei, who was standing beside him, felt his scalp go numb and wanted to cover his ears!
Killing her would be a waste of heavenly resources! Leave it to me, Ill definitely make her suffer a hundred times more than you. Wouldnt it be better to torture her like this every day?
Zishan thought about it and felt that Lucas was right!
No one couldpare to the crazy people from the Virus Research Institute when it came to torturing people!
Alright, Ill leave it to you! But you have to cure me as soon as possible!
Of course. Do you think Im willing to keep cutting off your rotten flesh? This virus is very contagious. I still want to live a few more years!
Liao Weis originally pale face turned even paler when he heard that!
Highly infectious?
Then wouldnt he be infected!
Doctor, please save me! Dont let me get infected with the virus! Ill do anything you want, I ... I can at least provide clean blood for Zishan!
Liao Wei, who had always been brainless, was finally smart for once.
Both Lucas and Zishan felt that he really couldnt be infected by the virus, otherwise, they would have to find someone else to provide blood.
After three days, Zi Shans condition finally stabilized, but Liao Wei had already lost consciousness due to excessive blood loss. In fact, he didnt even make it through a day. Zishans menter sent blood bags to him, which was how he could withstand Zishans squandering.
However, Zishan felt that Liao Wei would still be useful in the future, so she asked Lucas to give him a blood transfusion and save his life.
Chapter 1048
Chapter 1048: One more time
Trantor: 549690339
There was not a single patch of fine skin on Zishans body, not even on her face. As a result, her originally beautiful face was now full of potholes and scars, making her extremely ugly.
This time, she had suffered too great a loss!
She had never thought that she would fall into the hands of a woman that she had never paid any attention to.
Many of the subordinates who were tracking Shuyin were showing symptoms of being hypnotized!
Obviously, Shuyin had inherited Shu Chengshans talent and had reached the peak of hypnosis!
An 18-year-old girl with almost zero martial strength had escaped from the pursuit of hundreds of people. No one would believe this!
However, now that he knew about Shuyins trump card, he would be able to take precautions against her the next time he caught her.
Zishans willpower was also extremely strong. She had endured the extreme pain. Although she still had to suffer the torment of the virus, she could already hold on.
However, one of his subordinates brought in an item that made Zi Shan instantly break down and let out a shrill scream.
It was his father Andrews hand!
She recognized it!
Dads hand was chopped off! He must have suffered great pain!
Zishans emotions fluctuated too much, and his body tensed up. The next moment, his skin that had just healed cracked!
In an instant, she was covered in blood.
Lucas had just finished his meal outside when he heard the machine in the room beeping with an urgent rm. He was instantly furious.Zishan! If you dont want to live, just say it. I wont save you! If you want to die, go die! I spent so much effort to save you and this is how you repay me?
However, Zi Shan could no longer hear his angry roars. Her consciousness was rapidly blurring, and her heart rate was rapidly dropping.
Although Lucas was furious, he still had to save her. Otherwise, all his efforts in the past three days would be in vain!
Shuyin had been veryfortable these few days.
She had never enjoyed the feeling of being taken care of by anyone. Jing Rui had been taking care of her for the past few days, and she had recovered very quickly.
On the third day, she could already get out of bed and walk on her own.
However, Jing Rui was not always at home. He was busy most of the time. Most of the time, it was the maids who took care of Shuyin, including washing her clothes, making delicious food, and helping her to the bathroom.
To Shuyin, a maids care and concern was enough to make her feel warm.
The maid had been hired by Han Feng. She was mute and couldnt speak, but she was very diligent and honest, so she got along well with Shuyin.
Shuyiny in bed for three days before the pain in her body eased. The pain in her abdomen, which had been kicked by Zishan, was no longer unbearable.
She got out of bed and went to take a shower in the slippers that Jing Rui had asked the maid to buy.
She took a shower and changed into clean clothes. When she came out of the bathroom, she ran into Jing Rui.
A beautying out of the bath was elegant and refined. This was probably referring to women like Shu Yin.
Shuyin had just finished a hot shower and her fair face had a faint blush. Her hair was still dripping wet and it stained her silk pajamas, making her beautiful figure faintly visible.
Her face was exquisite and wless, and her exposed calves were as white as Jade, glowing with a crystal-like luster. It was so beautiful that one would want to lift up her nightdress and take a look at her entire body!
Jing Rui nced at them and said,Didnt I tell you to lie down? Go back to bed and take a shower when youre better.
His tone was a little apathetic, but Shuyin was already used to this side of him.
Only now did she know that even if he cared about someone, he would still have such a cold look.
Shuyin was grateful for his care these past few days and didnt mind his cold tone. She smiled and said,Im fine. Im much better now. Lying down every day is not good for my recovery.
Shuyins internal organs and even her ribs were injured. She should have been lying in bed for a few more days, but she really couldnt stand the fact that she hadnt bathed for three days.
Because she was covered in grass and mud on the day of her injury, her long hair, which was originally smooth, was almost tied up!
So, the first thing she did after getting out of bed was to take a shower.
After three days of rest, Shuyins ribs still hurt when she walked. Even a slight vibration in her abdominal cavity would cause tearing pain.
So she walked very, very slowly. At her speed, it would take at least five minutes to move from the bathroom to the bedroom.
Jing Rui walked to her side and picked her up.
Shu Yin jumped into the air without any warning and then fell into a strong embrace. She was so shocked that she let out a low cry.
I can walk on my own! Quickly put me down!
She was not used to being so intimate with others, and not used to Jing Rui taking care of her.
Shuyin wanted to push Jing Rui away, but as soon as she touched his chest, he said,Dont move, or Ill throw you away.
Shuyin wasnt sure if he would really throw her away, but she didnt dare to move.
She allowed him to carry her and strode into the bedroom. He ced her on the bed and took her hand to check on the small wounds.
She felt a little ufortable and blushed slightly, but she didnt say anything to avoid revealing her heart throbbing.
Jing Rui looked at her hands. The wounds had recovered, leaving only a faint red scar. He thought that these scars would disappear in a few days.
In the past, he had never cared about scars.
The wounds on his body were all treated casually. As long as they didnt bleed, it was fine to leave a scar.
But when he saw Shuyins hand, he didnt want to leave a scar.
Her hands were as beautiful as a piece of art, making him have the urge to keep holding it in his hands and y with it. This had never happened before!
His sister, Jing Xi, was also a little beauty with beautiful and lovely hands, but Jing Rui did not feel anything special about her.
He had also seen the hands of other women, many of which were slender and beautiful, but he had never taken a second look.
Only Shuyins hand gave him a different feeling.
He had been restraining himself and ignoring her until Shuyins hand was cut with countless small wounds. His restraint hadpletely lost its effect.
Now that he saw that Shuyins hand was gradually recovering, he finally felt a little better.
Jing Rui took the ointment from the table, sat by the bed and started to apply it on Shuyin.
Shuyins small hand looked especially delicate and beautiful in his big hand.
Jing Ruis thumb could not help but slide over the back of her hand. It seemed to be unintentional, but also intentional.
Shuyins face heated up uncontrobly, and she wanted to pull her hand back.Ive already applied the medicine today.
Jing Rui grabbed her hand and said,Lets go one more time,
Chapter 1049
Chapter 1049: Where are the bones in the chicken wings?
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin couldnt argue with Jing Rui and could only let him apply the medicine for her.
In fact, Jing Rui had applied medicine for her every day, but Shuyin would feel her face turn red and her heart beat faster every time, so he had asked the servant to help her apply the ointment in advance.
Jing Ruis hands were long, strong, and hot. Every time his fingers pressed and touched her fingers, she had an indescribable feeling.
She thought that Jing Rui was ying with her hand on purpose and suspected that he had a hand fetish. But he did not look like a beast, judging from his serious and cold face.
She made aparison and found that even the maids were not as careful as Jing Rui or as time-consuming as him when applying the ointment.
Shuyin was sitting on the bed, leaning against the headboard, while Jing Rui was sitting by the bed, applying medicine for her.
The way he lowered his head was so handsome that it was hard to resist!
Jing Rui was dressed in a suit with a simple grey shirt inside. His short ck hair was cool and neat, and his eyshes were long. Even Shuyin could notpare to him.
Handsome, handsome, cold, perfect!
He could not me Zishan for not being able to forget him. She would rather destroy him if she could not get him. Even if he did not do anything and only gave you a cold look, he could still take away a womans heart.
Jing Rui did not need to look to know that Shuyin was staring at him. He was very sensitive to gazes and did not like to be stared at, but when Shuyin kept looking at him, he could not help but start to caress her hand gently.
The skin on her fingers was very white, smooth and tender. Her nails were clean and neat, with a light pink color, which made her look healthy and delicate. She would be even more beautiful without those scars!
The so-called slender Jade fingers were nothing more than this.
Jing Rui had never seen hands more beautiful than Shuyin S. He had the urge to put on her gloves so that no one could see them.
Jing Rui nodded in satisfaction after he had applied ayer of ointment and wrapped it with ayer of gauze.
Who applied the medicine for you today?
Seeing Jing Ruis serious expression, Shuyin asked,Maid, whats wrong?
Next time, dont use her.
Shuyin really wanted to ask him why, but seeing his cold face, she swallowed her words and nodded.Alright, Ill apply the medicine myself.
She muttered in her heart, is there something wrong with that maid? Was he unreliable?
Jing Rui got up and walked out of the room without a word. He went to his room to change.
Shuyin didnt know that Jing Rui didnt let the maid apply the medicine for her because he didnt want anyone to touch her hand, not even women.
He had already treated it as his private property!
After he changed his clothes and went to Shuyins room, he saw the maid drying Shuyins hair.
Perhaps it was because she had sat for too long and her abdomen hurt, but when the maid was drying her hair, she was lying on her side with her back facing him, so her back was perfectly exposed.
The White silk pajamas stuck to her body, perfectly outlining her exquisite figure, making her waist appear slender, and her legs straight and long.
Jing Ruis Adams apple moved, and he looked away. He went to the living room, poured himself a big ss of cold water and drank it all.
Shuyin didnt know that Jing Rui was looking at her, but the maid did. She was mute, so she didnt say anything and continued to dry Shuyins hair.
The maid did not think that there was anything wrong with Jing Rui staring at Shuyin. She had always thought that they were a young couple.
If they were not a couple, why would Jing Rui care so much about Shuyin? He urged her to buy clothes and food, and even personally applied medicine for Shuyin. He was afraid that she would be in pain when she walked and even carried her.
Although the maid was a mute, she had a husband. It was just that her husband was also a mute. In her opinion, her husband had never been so considerate.
As for the problem of Shuyin and Jing Rui sleeping in separate rooms, wasnt it because Shuyin was injured? She was so badly injured that she had to lie down for three whole days before she could barely get out of bed. How could she serve a man?
Shuyin didnt know what the maid was thinking, but she usually wore long-sleeved loungewear and long pants. She had never worn such a sexy nightdress in front of Jing Rui.
Actually, this nightdress wasnt sexy at all. It was a short-sleeved one, not a camisole one. The dress was above the knees, and it didnt show anything that shouldnt be exposed.
However, Shuyin had never revealed so much in her life. When she was at the Virus Research Institute, she was fully armed most of the time and never wore a skirt. She wore a white shirt, white pants, and a white coat every day.
After leaving the Research Institute, she had worn dresses in University, but those dresses had long sleeves and covered her entire arm. She would wear leggings and long socks for her lower body, and she had never exposed her legs.
She had worn this nightdress today because the maid had prepared it for her. She had thought that Jing Rui would not be back for a while, so she hade out of the bathroom in it.
She actually liked to wear dresses too, but in front of a man, she always felt that it was morefortable to wear long pants and long sleeves.
So, when Jing Rui saw Shuyin again, the nightdress that showed off her beautiful figure had been changed into loose blue id home clothes.
The dinner was very sumptuous. Shuyin didnt dare to eat anything too greasy in the past two days, but she didnt have to be too careful today.
The helper brought the food into Shuyins room. She put whatever Shuyin wanted to eat to her mouth.
Shuyin didnt want to be like this either. She had never been so delicate in her life. Her hand was just cut by some vegetation, and although the wounds were a little dense, it wasnt to the extent that she couldnt even eat. When she was young, she had been infected by a virus and had arge area of her body fester. At that time, her hand had been damaged by the virus until it was covered in blood, and even her bones were exposed. Didnt she still eat by herself?
But she had no choice but to follow Jing Ruis instructions and wrap her hands in gauze as if they were national treasures.
However, it was undeniable that no matter how strong a girl was, there would be times when she was weak and soft.
She felt an indescribable warmth in her heart after being taken care of like this.
For the past two days, she had been eating liquid food such as soup, porridge, and milk. Today, she finally got to eat her favorite chicken wings. Shuyin was in a good mood and felt that her ribs didnt hurt as much anymore.
When the helper picked up a chicken wing and brought it to her lips, she only took one bite and was stunned!
Where are the bones inside?
The maid smiled honestly and made a gesture to Shuyin.
Shuyin didnt know anything about signnguage, but she could guess from her hand gestures,Youre the one who helped me remove it?
The maid shook her head and pointed at Jing Ruis room.
Shuyins eyes widened.He helped me shave off the chicken bones?!

Chapter 1050: I originally wanted to go to heaven
Trantor: 549690339
The maid smiled and nodded at Shuyin. Then, she made a few hand gestures, meaning: Your husband is so good to you. Youre so blessed.
Of course, Shuyin still didnt understand her hand gesture. She was still in shock and hadnt recovered from the shock!
She looked at the te of chicken wings. She could not imagine that Jing Rui would help her pick out all the bones so that she would not have to spit them out.
This did not seem like something a cold and emotionless man would do!
And he was definitely not that idle!
Shu Yin swallowed a mouthful of the tender chicken wing. She felt as if she was floating on air, and everything felt so unreal.
Was she dreaming?
For the past few days, she had been feeling like she was in a dream. Everything was not quite right.
Shuyin had always felt that she was a smart girl. Her IQ and EQ were both good, and she had a good mind. She was also clear about things that she should know.
She knew that she had a high IQ, and it was because of this that she was able to defeat a pervert like Lucas and anyone who wanted to harm her.
But her intelligence was not enough to withstand Jing Ruis attack.
Not only was this person good-looking, but his IQ was also ridiculously high. He had a cold look all day long, so it was harder to guess what he was thinking than to ascend to heaven!
Shuyin couldnt believe that Jing Rui would see her in a different light. She knew that she was smart and sharp in the eyes of others, but in Jing Ruis eyes, she was just a bowl of water. He could see through her with one look.
In essence, she was not a kind and innocent little girl.
She was wary and didnt want to trust anyone ...
Thinking of this, Shuyin suddenly felt that something was wrong.
The way she got along with Jing Rui was enough to prove how much she trusted him.
Shuyin ate the boneless chicken wing bite by bite, not willing to think about anything else.
No matter what, she was happy at the moment!
It had been a long time since she had felt this kind of happiness!
Shuyin finished the entire te of chicken wings and drank a bowl of pigeon soup. Jing Rui had asked the maid to make soup for Shuyin every day, which was said to speed up the healing of wounds.
Shuyin had an inexplicable fondness for food made from winged animals, so she enjoyed the pigeon soup very much.
She didnt eat anything else.
Jing Rui smiled when he saw that she was only eating the meat and the soup, and refused to eat the vegetables.
His deep voice echoed in the room,You love to eat meat and drink soup so much, but why arent you fat?
The maid saw hime in and quickly cleaned up the dishes and brought them out.
Shuyin was full and half-leaned on the pillow at the head of the bed. Her eyes were full of smiles. Ive only been eating like this recently. When I was at the Research Institute, the researchers said that there were many viruses hidden in birds, so the Research Institute rarely provided chicken. If I wanted to eat it, I had to give money to the chef. Im so poor, I can only eat vegetables every meal!
She was half-lying there with a happy expression and a clear and pleasant voice. She finally had the liveliness and spirit of an 18-year-old girl. She had finally let down her guard and was willing to chat with him.
Jing Ruis heart rxed because of her happiness.
He had always known that she had a lively, cheerful, and charming side, but she had never been willing to show it easily.
Jing Rui was in a rxed mood. He leaned against the door and listened to her crying about how poor she was. He felt that his life had suddenly be lively.
University food is expensive too. I dont know how to cook, so I eat more often. Chicken wings are expensive! I only have such good food here, but Im definitely going to get fat if I eat like this every day. I feel like Ive gained a few pounds of weight these few days, and Im sure I wont be able to fly even if I grow wings on my back in the future. I wanted to go to heaven ...
Shuyin was in a good mood and started to joke with Jing Rui.
Jing Ruis eyes lit up with a smile, and he found it funny.
This silly girl, didnt he give her a lot of money? It was enough for her to squander for the rest of her life. Why couldnt she even bear to eat chicken wings?
Have I gained weight?
He didnt think so.
She had only been drinking some porridge and soup for the past two days. How could she have gained weight?
As for her wanting to fly up to the sky, even if she was as thin as a bamboo pole, she couldnt fly up. However, she could use other ways to go up.
Jing Rui had already noticed that Shuyins mood would improve every time she ate chicken wings. He did not know how ordinary chicken wings could make her so happy.
Do you like chicken wings that much? he asked with a chuckle. Once she ate the chicken wings, her face glowed as if she had been injected with stimnts. Jing Zhi was right, she was so easy to take care of.
Shuyins clear eyes shed with a hint of slyness.Of course! And someone even picked out the bones for me, so its really easy for me to eat. I think the chicken wings are even more delicious!
Jing Rui took it as apliment and did not care about the cunning look in her eyes. He said,Im d you like it. Ill get Lisa to make it for you tomorrow.
Lisa was the maid in the house. She was nearly 40 years old, hardworking and capable, and her cooking skills were good. If it were not for the fact that she was mute and difficult tomunicate with others, many people would be willing to hire her as a maid.
Lisa had been taking good care of Shuyin for the past few days, and Jing Rui had doubled her sry.
Picking chicken bones for a woman, any male chauvinist would not do such a thing. Many men even felt that it was embarrassing.
But when Shuyin saw that Jing Ruis expression was calm, he did not seem to think that it would damage his noble image.
Shuyin started to suspect that she used to think that Jing Rui always made decisions without considering her thoughts and arranged her life. She thought that he was too arrogant and unreasonable. Did she misunderstand him?
Living in an environment like the Virus Research Institute, Shuyin was actually a little stubborn and rebellious.
She didnt like to be controlled by others. The more they forced her, the more she would resist. So, she instinctively rejected Jing Ruis arrangements.
For the first time, she reflected on herself and wondered if she should listen to others, like ... Jing Rui.
He was smarter and more capable than her. He had never had the intention to harm her. His arrangement was probably the most reasonable and most beneficial to her.
The atmosphere was rxed and pleasant until it was interrupted by a wail.
Brother! My dear brother, save me!
Jing Zhi rushed in like a gust of wind and cried for Jing Ruis help.
Our sister is going to tear down my house! It doesnt matter if I sleep on the streets, but my dad and your second uncle are already so old. We cant let him sleep on the grass!
Chapter 1051
Chapter 1051: Jing Zhi driven mad by the witch
Trantor: 549690339
Hey, second brother, wait for me. Dont run so fast, Im afraid of the dark!
Great aunt, please spare me! Dont chase! Are You Afraid of the Dark? If youre afraid of the dark, Ill eat my two socks raw!
Jing Zhi wanted to cry. He turned around and saw Jing Rui leaning against the door. He rushed over and hugged Jing Ruis leg.
Brother, is Xixi really your sister? why didnt you look for her after three days? Arent you afraid that Ill sell her off? arent you afraid that shell be taken away? I beg you to quickly bring her back to your ce. If you let her stay at my house any longer, Ill be a monk!
Jing Ruis body stiffened when Jing Zhi hugged his leg. He wanted to kick Jing Zhi out of the room.
He hated being hugged like this!
Not even Jing Zhi!
It was too embarrassing!
It took him a lot of effort to resist the urge to kick her, but his face was already as ck as the bottom of a pot.Let go!
I wont let go until you get Xixi back! Ill stick to you forever!
Jing Rui gritted his teeth and said,okay! Let here back!
Brother, I trust you the most. Youre not lying to me, are you? Im so innocent, kind, ignorant, cute, and handsome ...
Im not lying to you!
Jing Rui interrupted his brothers boasting and closed his eyes in pain.
With the two devils back, there was no way to continue living!
He had only been given three peaceful days, and his sister had tortured Jing Zhi to the point of insanity!
The little demoness power had increased!
Jing Zhis disheveled appearance was obvious. His hair was disheveled, his face was covered in soot, and his fine suit was full of holes. His shoes were nowhere to be seen, and he was only wearing a pair of socks. The original color of his socks was no longer distinguishable.
Jing Zhi had just said that he ate two of her socks raw. How could he ... Eat them?
Shuyin stared in shock at the tall man who had once frightened the entire Research Institute, which was known for being perverted. The high-risk human who everyone would avoid was actually in such a sorry state. He seemed to have beenpletely frightened out of his wits. She blinked hard, suspecting that she was hallucinating!
And ... Jing Rui seemed to be having a terrible headache.
Shuyin looked at the little girl with two braids who was holding a popsicle and skipping in from outside. She couldnt believe that it was her who had forced these two men, who had frightened the whole world, to throw away their dignity!
The little girl had an oval face and exquisite facial features. She was so beautiful that she looked like a favorite of the heavens. Her big eyes were innocent and pure, like the purest crystals in the world. She didnt look like the person who forced Jing Zhi to eat his socks.
Shuyin had never met Jing Xi before, but she knew that Jing Rui had a sister. Now that she saw that Jing Xi and Jing Rui looked quite simr, and the conversation between Jing Rui and Jing Zhi, she was sure that the beautiful girl in front of her was Jing Xi!
Jing Xi was going to question her second brother about how he had sneaked back, but her eyes lit up when she saw Shuyin. She immediately left Jing Zhi and ran to the bed.Sister, youre awake! Thats great! When we found you, you were poisoned and unconscious! You cant eat random things in the future!
Most of the time, there was only Shuyin and the maid in the vi. She didnt know that Jing Zhi and Jing Xi were among the people who had saved her, let alone that Jing Xi had alsoe to North America.
Because Jing Xi had gonepletely wild. She had note back since she went to Jing Zhis ce.
In Shuyins eyes, Jing Xi was just a little girl. She was so sweet-tongued that it was difficult for people to not like her.
Shuyin smiled and said,so youve also contributed to saving my Xixi. Thank you, sister! When Im better, Ill y with you, okay?
She was actually very confused. Why did he bring Jing Xi along?
It was so dangerous, and Jing Xi was so young that she could get hurt easily.
But she was still alive and well, and was obviously well protected by Jing Rui and Jing Zhi.
Jing Xis eyes lit up like stars when she heard that someone was going to y with her. She jumped up in joy.Sister, youre so good! This popsicle is for you, Ive never had one before!
Jing Zhi, who was standing at the side, trembled in fear when he heard that Jing Xi was going to give Shuyin a popsicle. He opened his mouth, wanting to remind Shuyin that her mouth would immediately swell like a sausage after eating the popsicle, but he didnt dare to say it out loud because of the little devils abuse.
Shuyin didnt know what was going on, but she was already an adult. How could she have the nerve to snatch a popsicle from a child?
She smiled and shook her head.Thank you for sharing the good food with me. You can eat it yourself, but dont eat too much. Its still cold and youre still young. Your stomach can easily be frozen.
As Shuyin spoke, she still felt that it was better for children not to eat such cold food. It would be fine if they ate some on a hot day to cool down, but it was early spring now, and the spring was cold. Xixi might have diarrhea if she ate a popsicle.
Its fine, Xixi. You dont have to eat anymore. You can eat it when youre older, or when the weather is hotter. Youll catch a cold if you eat now, and youll get sick.
Jing Xi had been pampered since she was a child. Except for her mother, Shangguan ning, who would object to some of her requests, everyone else, including her grandfather, father, brother, and great-grandfather, would give in to her.
This was the first time someone other than her mother did not pamper her.
Obviously, Shuyin didnt try to please her because of her identity.
It was a good first impression. Jing Xi felt that she had saved the right person.
Returning the favor, Jing Xi smiled and said,Sister, you just had food poisoning a few days ago. Its not suitable for you to eat such cold food now. When youre better, we can eat together!
Jing Zhi couldnt believe that Jing Xi would let Shu Yin go so easily. The difference in treatment was too great!
After all, he had been tricked by Jing Xi. His lips had been swollen for the whole day, and Jing Xi hadughed at him for the whole day!
Jing Zhi was almost driven crazy by the little devil.
In three days, poor Jing Zhi had fallen from heaven with his sister to hell, where he wanted to throw her away.
He thought that there was something wrong with the popsicle in Jing Xis hand, but in fact, only the one Jing Zhi ate had a problem. The rest was normal.
Jing Xi had nned to eat the one in her hand herself, so of course there were no extra ingredients.
She didnt want Shuyin to have a sausage mouth. This sister was the closest person to her sister-inws position. If she scared her away, she would definitely be beaten up by her mother when she got home.
Shuyin didnt know that this eight-year-old loli was so scheming. She liked children, especially obedient and sensible children like Jing Xi.
However, the next day, she knew that her judgment was seriously wrong!
This girl could only be obedient for a minute!

Chapter 1052: Sweet little baby
Trantor: 549690339
The next day, just as the sky turned bright, Shu Yin was woken up by a roar.
Shey on the bed and felt the entire vi shaking!
Shuyin was shocked. She thought it was an earthquake, so she didnt even put on her shoes. She ignored the pain in her abdomen and grabbed her phone, wanting to jump out of the window.
However, she saw Jing Rui standing outside the window as soon as she pulled the curtains open.
Jing Rui seemed to know that she was going to jump out of the room, so he said calmly,Its fine. Go back to sleep. Xixi was just ying around.
Shuyin was stunned. This girl was ying too big! She felt like the entire vi was about to copse. How could she still sleep?
Did she do the same thing to Jing Zhi yesterday? was that why Jing Zhi said that his house was going to be torn down by the little girl?
Shuyin closed the curtains, changed her clothes, and put on her shoes. Then she walked out.
After they left the vi, Shuyin finally understood why there was such a loud explosion!
Jing Ruis Vi upied arge area and was nted with all kinds of flowers and trees. The flowers and nts were still bare, but the tall redwoods were still lush and dark green.
However, the Redwoods were being excavated by two excavators. They fell one by one and fell to the ground, making the whole earth tremble.
Jing Xi was sitting on Jing Zhis shoulder. She had slept verytest night and woke up before dawn this morning. She had even pulled Jing Zhi up. At the moment, she was full of energy and showed no signs of sleep deprivation.
She pped her hands excitedly,good, good! Its so powerful!
Shuyin looked at this destructive scene in a daze. She didnt expect that these two brothers would y around with this little girl so early in the morning and pamper her to the heavens!
If Jing Xi poked a hole in the sky, would the brothers just let her be?
Jing Rui walked up to Shuyin and looked at her.Didnt I tell you to sleep a little longer? Why did youe out?
Its fine. Im used to getting up early. What was going on? Why did you pull these redwoods up by the roots?
Ever since Shuyin came to this vi, she hadnte out to take a look. She had been lying in bed recuperating for the past few days. Other than going to the bathroom, she didnt even know what the situation was like in the vi, let alone outside.
However, from her window, she could see the scenery outside. She originally thought that these redwoods were not very suitable for the vi, but it seemed to be very heartbreaking to destroy them!
Jing Ruis face showed a touch of helplessness.Xixi said that its useless to grow so many redwoods at home, so she wants to nt fruit trees instead. Next year, she cane here and eat the fruits she grows herself. She wants to move those redwoods outside the vi and surround it so that no one can find them.
His sister acted as she pleased, and by the time he found out, the excavator was already driving in!
If Jing Xi wanted to eat fruits, she didnt need to grow them herself. Besides, she would be returning to A city in a few days. Was she going to fly to North America again next year just to eat fruits?
Shuyin couldnt help butugh. This kind of thing seemed more like something a child would do.
Jing Xis sharp eyes spotted Shuyin and she called out to her,Good Morning, sister!
Soon, Jing Zhi came over with her in his arms.
Sister, Im really sorry. I didnt expect that a few trees would make such a loud noise. Did I wake you up?
Jing Xis little face was full of apology. Shuyin would not argue with a child. Moreover, this was Jing Ruis home, which was also Jing Xis home. She was just an outsider living here. She did not need to exin to her what Jing Xi did in her own home.
Shuyin smiled as she looked at the little girl. She felt that she was cute and mischievous. She was obviously very sensible, but she still insisted on causing trouble. She was very childish.
She really wanted to pinch Jing Xis blushing face, but her hand was still wrapped in gauze, and she couldnt do it.
Its fine, Xixi. I woke up early too, but Im just a little earlier today. However, I think its a pity to move those redwoods away since theyre so tall. We can leave a few in the yard so that we can enjoy the cool in the summer. What do you think?
Both Jing Rui and Jing Zhi thought that Jing Xi would refuse, because no matter how they persuaded her, she would not agree. She insisted on moving all the Redwoods away and nting fruit trees!
This time, Jing Xi nodded without thinking.Alright! Ill listen to big sister! The empty space was enough to nt fruit trees! If you like Sequoia, just keep it!
Shuyin smiled and reached out to touch Jing Xis head, only to find that her hand was wrapped like a cocoon and she couldnt touch it.
She had no choice but to withdraw her hand and praise Jing Xi,Xixi, youre such a good girl. Ill nt fruit trees with you when Im better in a few days! Well grow whatever you want to eat!
In Shuyins eyes, this was Jing Ruis home, and his sister could grow whatever she wanted.
However, in Jing Xis opinion, this was her brothers home, and it would also be her sister-inws home in the future. Of course, her sister-inw could nt whatever she wanted!
She only wanted to nt fruit trees on a whim. She thought it was fun, so of course, she would not be short of fruits to eat.
However, if Shuyin was willing to nt the fruit tree with her, she would definitely be happy!
Jing Xi got down from Jing Zhis arms and carefully held Shuyins wrist to avoid touching her bandaged hand. She said thoughtfully,Sister, you havent recovered yet. Its too cold in the morning. Let me take you back to your bedroom, okay? What do you want to eat for breakfast? Lets get big brother to prepare!
Shuyin was really touched by Jing Xi!
The wound on her hand had actually healed, and it wouldnt hurt when she touched it.
But Jing Rui had wrapped her withyers of gauze yesterday, as if her hand was seriously injured. Jing Xi did not know that her hand was fine, so she held her wrist carefully, as if she was afraid of hurting her.
Moreover, Jing Xi was so young, but she was afraid that she would feel cold and wanted to send her back to her room. She was so sensible!
Shuyin bent down subconsciously, wanting to hold Jing Xi in her arms. She didnt expect Jing Xi to shake her head immediately.Sister, dont hug me. Im very heavy. Your injury cant be healed so quickly. The doctor said that you have to stay in bed for a month and cant move!
Where else could she find such a considerate little baby?
Shuyin was so touched that she was about to cry. No wonder everyone said that a daughter was a mothers sweet little cotton-padded jacket. Jing Xis mother was so blessed! Not only did she have such an outstanding son, but she also had a daughter who was so good at taking care of others. She was really a winner in life!
She could not me Jing Rui and Jing Zhi for loving Jing Xi so much. She was really a lovely little girl.
She remembered that she was very sensible when she was young. Why did her parents not want her?
She wanted to have a daughter in the future and love her well. No matter what her daughter was like, she would never abandon her child.
Chapter 1053
Chapter 1053: Hug whenever you want
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi was a little dazed as he watched the two of them leave.
Why was Jing Xi so obedient to Shuyin?
If he had known this would happen, he wouldnt have begged his brother and would have just begged Shuyin.
Jing Xi had turned over all thend in his garden, and many of the green nts had also been damaged. It was as if his house had been ransacked. He should havee to Shuyin earlier to get the little devil!
Jing Rui was also curious. He had been with Jing Xi for more than a month and knew her temper.
She looked very well-behaved and smiled sweetly, but in fact, she had her own ideas. She must do what she wanted to do and was very hard to listen to other peoples advice.
When she was in A city, other than her mother, no one else could control her.
Aftering to North America, Jing Xi had been ying around like crazy. She was wild and loved to tease people. Han Feng and the others had been teased by her many times, and their hair was still green!
Jing Xi had been influenced by Shangguan nings preference for green, so she had dyed their hair greenst night.
Han Feng was on the verge of tears!
Of all the colors, why did he have to dye it green! From a distance, it looked like he was wearing a green hat!
Jing Rui had thought that Jing Xi would not stop until she destroyed all the nts today. He did not expect her to take care of Shuyin like a little adult!
The sun had really risen from the West!
If Shuyin could control this little devil, that would be great!
The excavators stopped working, and the rumbling sounds and the shaking of the fallen trees finally stopped. The world returned to peace, and the brothers suddenly felt much better.
After breakfast, Jing Xi felt tired. She went back to her room, took off her shoes, and fell asleep without anyone looking after her.
After Shuyin finished eating, she went to Jing Xis room and saw that she was sleeping soundly with rice on her face. She could not help but smile.
The gauze on her hand had been removed, and she could move freely now. She wiped the rice off Jing Xis face. She could finally touch the little girls delicate face.
Jing Xis hair was in a mess, and her clothes were dirty. Shu Yin couldnt help but shake her head. Men were indeed men. They were not good at taking care of children.
If Jing Xis mother had been by her side, she would not have been in such a sorry state. At least her mother could help herb her braids.
Shuyin had no one to help herb her hair when she was young, so she always cut her hair short to avoid knots.
Now, when she saw the little girl, she couldnt help but feel motherly love. She wanted to protect her and dress her up.
Jing Rui was standing by the door, watching Shuyin sitting on her sisters bed and looking at the little girl with gentle eyes. His heart was filled with tenderness.
He couldnt tell that someone as defensive as Shuyin would like children so much.
Jing Xi had won her love without any effort.
He had done so much for her, but he had never seen her look at him with such a gentle gaze.
Jing Rui strode to Shuyins side and asked,You like her?
Shuyin raised her head and nced at him, then looked down at Jing Xi again. She sighed and said,Shes like a little angel. Shes really sensible and independent. She doesnt need anyone to take care of her. Your mother taught her well, so maybe no one doesnt like her?
Jing Rui did not say anything.
Only Shuyin had said that she was a little angel. Jing Xi was a famous little devil in A city!
But it made sense. When the little witch was with Shuyin, she wasnt devilish at all. Instead, she was very good at acting obedient. No one knew what she was up to.
Jing Rui did not believe that Jing Xi would be so obedient all of a sudden.
The little girl was an Angel when she was asleep, but when she woke up, she would be a witch again!
Jing Rui smiled and picked Shuyin up in his arms.
Shuyin did not expect Jing Rui to hug her in Jing Xis room. She was shocked and embarrassed. If she had not been rational and afraid that her scream would wake Jing Xi up, she would have screamed out loud.
When did they be so intimate?
Hug whenever you want to?
Shuyin clenched her fist and hit Jing Rui hard. She said in a low voice,What are you doing? put me down!
Her fist was just a scratch to Jing Rui.
He carried her in his arms and strode out. He said indifferently,You have to stay in bed for at least a week. Internal organ damage is no small matter. If you dont recuperate well, there will be residual effects in the future.
ording to the doctors instructions, Shuyin was required to recuperate for a month.
Jing Rui had asked her to stay in bed for a week, which was the minimum requirement.
Shuyin felt that she didnt do much. She just walked around a little more. Other than a little pain, she didnt feel too ufortable. She felt that she was fine and wasnt so delicate.
Its just a few steps, I can walk on my own, let me go!
Shuyin felt that her face must bepletely red by now!
It was not right for her to be held by Jing Rui yesterday, but it was still eptable, because she did feel a sharp pain in her stomach after the shower yesterday. But it did not hurt today. She felt that it was too intimate to be held by Jing Rui again.
Jing Rui carried her out of Jing Xis room and walked towards Shuyins room, as if he had not heard her.
As soon as they walked out, Jing Xi, who was supposed to be asleep, suddenly opened her eyes, covered her mouth, and rolled around on the bed.
Jing Xiughed silently and was very happy.
Aiyo, this is really rare!
Her brother was actually taking the initiative! Finally, there was a girl who could make him break his skills!
She had to quickly tell her mother this good news!
Jing Xi lived in the bedroom on the second floor, while Shuyin lived in the bedroom on the first floor because it had been inconvenient for her to go up and down thest two days. Jing Zhi was still eating in the dining room on the first floor.
When he saw his brother carrying Shuyin down from the second floor, his eyes widened!
With a tter, the stainless steel spoon in Jing Zhis hand fell to the floor. He didnt notice it at all-all his attention was on his brother and Shuyin!
The living room was so quiet that the sound of a spoon hitting the floor was particrly clear. Shuyin didnt need to look to know that Jing Zhi was staring at them.
She was so angry that she wanted to hit him. She asked Jing Rui,Whats wrong with you?
Jing Rui lowered his head and saw the woman in his arms ring at him as if she was about to spit fire. Her fair face was red, but he did not know whether it was from anger, embarrassment, or both.
It was cute, fresh, and nice to the touch.
He was in a good mood.Dont mess around, he said softly.Ill send you back to your room. You cant go anywhere today. Lie down properly.
Shu Yin was exasperated!
What was she doing?
He was clearly the one making trouble, alright?
He could actually say it so righteously, his mental strength was really a hundred times better than hers!

Chapter 1054: Shes so small, no sexual interest
Trantor: 549690339
She couldnt win in words, couldnt beat him, and couldnt even be his opponent when it came to being unreasonable. Shuyin had lost in aplete mess!
All her struggles were in vain. In the end, she was still carried into the room and everyone who shouldnt have seen her had seen her!
Fortunately, she did not know that Jing Xi was still awake. Otherwise, she would be even more embarrassed.
As soon as Jing Rui put Shuyin on the bed, she immediately pushed Jing Rui.Get out!
Jing Rui grabbed her hand and looked at her carefully.
Hmm, the recovery is not bad. The scar is getting lighter and lighter. In another two days, all the marks will disappear.
Peters medicine worked as expected!
Shuyins hand was held by him, and a strange feeling instantly spread from her fingertips to her whole body, making her tremble slightly.
She tried to pull her hand back, but failed. Jing Rui held her even tighter.
However, his expression was calm, and his eyes were still as calm as an ancient well. There was not a trace of abnormality. It seemed that he did not take holding her seriously at all, and did not feel that there was anything wrong with holding her hand.
This made Shuyin feel as if she was mocking herself for feeling too good about herself!
However, the feeling of her body couldnt lie. Shu Yin couldnt control the electric shock!
She lowered her head and did not dare to look at Jing Rui.Let go and get out!
However, Jing Rui did not let go of her. Instead, he held her hand and sat her down on the bed.
You ... Shu Yin was so scared that she stepped back.
Dont think too much. Ill apply the medicine for you.
Jing Rui nced at her and nced at her chest. He said,Shes so young and doesnt have any sexual interest. Im not that hungry.
Shuyins face turned red all of a sudden!
She subconsciously looked at her chest and wondered how it was small.
It wasnt small at all!
Shes developing well!
What kind of eyesight does he have?
It was wrong!
What was he looking at her chest for?
Shuyin was so angry that she wanted to bite someone. She had thought that he was an abstinent gentleman, but it turned out that he was just pretending. He wasnt a good person!
She tried her best to pull her hand back from the Hooligans grip, but the Hooligans grip was much stronger than hers. Instead, because she used too much strength, her wrist hurt from the pull.
She lowered her head and bit Jing Ruis hand.
Jing Ruis cold voice came from above her head. Dont waste your energy. Even if you bite off my hand, I dont want to let go, and I wont let go.
Shuyin didnt bear to use her strength at first, but after hearing this, she immediately made a ruthless move!
The pain came from the back of his hand, but it slowly turned into numbness and seeped into Jing Ruis body.
Her soft lips pressed against his skin, and a fire quickly ignited.
His resistance was that weak?
Jing Rui closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his dark eyes had returned to normal.
His other hand pinched Shuyins chin, and with a little force, Shuyin unconsciously loosened her teeth because of the pain.
He pinched her delicate chin and forced her to look up. His tone was calm but mixed with a trace of helplessness.Stop biting me. My blood is poisonous. If you bite my hand, youll die.
Shu Yin wasnt convinced and said angrily,My blood is also poisonous, and its a very powerful poison! I wont die even if I touch your blood!
Jing Rui had known about the virus in Shuyins body for a long time. Three years ago, Peter had given him a detailed report on Shuyins physical condition. Of course, the virus in her body was the focus of the report.
Jing Rui still kept Shuyins blood sample, so he knew her condition very well.
Although Shuyins virus was also very powerful, after many years of research and improvement, those viruses might be toxic to others, but to her, they were simr to microorganisms. They formed a virtuous cycle in her body, improving her immunity and anti-aging ability.
Of course, no matter how powerful her virus was, it was not as powerful as Jing Zhi s. Jing Rui had the same virus as Jing Zhi, but the concentration was much lower, so it was not a problem to suppress Shuyins virus.
But Jing Rui did not reveal the secret of his body. He just looked at her seriously and said softly,Dont mess around. If you touch My Blood, youll really die. Be careful in the future and dont bite me again.
His voice was faint, but there was an irresistible power in it that made Shu Yin trust him.
Her hand was wrapped in his and her chin was pinched by him. Their posture was intimate and ambiguous, but Shuyin calmed down very quickly. The blush on her face faded and she asked, a little puzzled,What virus do you have in your body?
She was an expert in Virus Research, and the most powerful virus she had ever seen was the one in Jing Zhis body. Shuyin had never tried it before, and it was the only virus that couldpletely suppress the virus in her body. She had done countless experiments with both viruses.
Ive never heard of a more powerful virus!
Was the virus inside Jing Rui a new type of virus?
Jing Rui let go of Shu Yins chin and said,Dont ask,
With just three short words, Shuyin knew that she had vited his taboo.
This was also a taboo for many people. People who had a virus in their body usually kept it a secret. Otherwise, if others knew the type of virus in their body, it was easy for them to be targeted and attacked.
Shuyin had only asked such a sensitive question in a moment of anxiety. Since Jing Rui did not allow her to ask, she did not ask.
However, this way, the ambiguous atmosphere in the room finally dissipated. Shuyin heaved a sigh of relief and felt much more at ease.
Just now, her heart had almost jumped out of her chest.
She had never known that her heart could beat so fast!
She didnt suspect that Jing Ruis virus was the same as Jing Zhi s, because the Research Institute had proved that no human could withstand the virus in Jing Zhis body.
The goris that could survive for the longest time after being infected by the virus were very strong, but they couldnt live for long. The longest living Gori was only four months old.
However, in these four months, the goris various abilities had soared rapidly. Other than its intelligence level, which had not improved, its hearing, vision, smell, strength, and so on had all improved.
However, the price was also extremely high. Not only did the goris lifespan rapidly shorten, but it also immediately lost its ability to reproduce!
Jing Rui looked normal and did not look like he had been infected by the virus at all. Moreover, Shuyin had been too affected by the research results of the Virus Research Institute to believe that anyone could withstand Jing Zhis virus.

Jing Rui took the ointment and was about to apply it on Shuyin when she looked at her hands and said softly,Its all good now, theres no need to apply medicine.
Jing Rui ignored her and squeezed out the ointment, slowly applying it on the back of Shuyins hand.
Ill do it myself, you can go and do your work!
Although Jing Rui had applied medicine for her many times, Shuyin still felt very ufortable.
It was as if his fingers were charged with electricity. Wherever he touched, sparks of electricity would be triggered. Shu Yin felt as if her hand was no longer hers.
The ointment was white and looked like a skin care product. Jing Rui rubbed it on Shuyins hand and her skin quickly absorbed the ointment. Her skin glowed with a soft and tender light.
The more he came into contact with her, the more he discovered her hidden beauty.
Jing Rui lowered his head and stared at her slender and delicate hands.
He didnt know what it would feel like to take a bite from this pair of hands.
Would it be like a crisp lotus root, biting off ones finger with a single bite?
Jing Rui was very sure that he had never had a thing for hands before. He would not even look at other peoples hands, let alone touch them. Why was he so obsessed with Shuyins hands now?
Jing Ruis eyes followed Shuyins hand and looked at her arm.
Shuyin wore long sleeves and long pants the rest of the time, except for the night before. She wrapped herself up tightly and refused to reveal any of her beauty.
Jing Rui could only see her wrist, and nothing else.
He retracted his gaze and applied a thickyer of ointment on Shuyin. Then, he took the gauze and wrapped her hand tightly.
Shuyin looked at her hands, which were wrapped like rice dumplings, and said helplessly,If you wrap my hand like this, Ill be equivalent to a third-degree disability and cant do anything.
What do you want to do?
I ...
She wouldnt be able to take off her pants when she went to the bathroomter!
Jing Rui obviously had not thought about this. He said calmly,You dont have to do anything. If you want anything, just tell the maid and let her help you. Or you can tell me, is there anything I cant do?
His tone was arrogant and his expression was cold. He gave off a domineering aura that he would pluck down the stars if he wanted.
But Shuyin didnt want stars. It was only easier for her when she wanted to go to the toilet!
This matter ... He couldnt let this master do it, right?
After Jing Rui finished speaking, he saw the conflicted expression on Shuyins face. He felt a little strange. Did Shuyin really have something that she wanted his help with but did not dare to say?
He nced at Shuyins hands and felt that he didnt have to be dazed anymore.
Youre not allowed to remove the gauze unless you want to leave a scar. I endured it when you wrapped me up like thatst time, so youd better endure it too!
Ah?
Could it be that he had applied medicine and bandaged her wound to take revenge?
It cant be, right?
Jing Rui did not look like a petty person.
Jing Rui went out and left Shuyin lying in the room alone. She raised her hands and looked at the two cocoons. After some hesitation, she decided to leave the gauze.
Otherwise, if it really left a scar in the future, it would be toote for her to regret it.
Everyone loved beauty, and Shuyin was no exception. No girl would want the back of her hand to be full of scars.
Jing Rui walked into the dining room.
In the dining room, Jing Zhi had finished all the dishes and was munching on arge orange.
When he saw Jing Rui, he did not even care about Cheng and asked tentatively,Brother, dont tell me youre ...
Before he could finish, Jing Rui said,No, I didn t,
Jing Zhi believed his brothers words, as he had never lied to anyone. But he still reminded him in a low voice,Brother, Im afraid ... You two are not suitable for each other. Shucheng mountain ...
Jing Rui interrupted Jing Zhi for the second time. He said expressionlessly,I know,
If it had been someone else, they would have been frozen to death by Jing Ruis cold tone, and would not have been able to continue the topic with him.
But Jing Zhi was a thick-skinned man. He continued to remind Jing Rui,Also, brother, didnt you say that you have that virus too? Weve both been affected by that damn virus, so we cant have any sons in the future!
Jing Ruis mouth twitched. Jing Zhi was only 18 years old. It was too early to talk about having a son.
Jing Rui held back the urge to p his brother to death. He took a ss of lemon water and left the restaurant. He could not guarantee that he would not get violent with Jing Zhi if he stayed any longer.
More importantly, he might not be able to defeat Jing Zhi.
If the older brother couldnt beat his younger brother, it would be extremely embarrassing!
However, it was true that Jing Zhi was infertile.
When he was at the Virus Research Institute, he had already gone through aprehensive physical examination, which, of course, included his fertility.
Jing Rui had never had a simr examination. He did not know if he could have children or not. He had never thought about this problem. In the past seven or eight years, he had been working hard to save Jing Zhi every day and had not cared about his own health.
One of the most important things to check for fertility was to check for the penis.
Jing Rui could ept people taking his blood for testing, but he would never allow anyone to take his penis for testing!
Whether he could have children or not, he would naturally know when he had a wife in the future. He would not go for a checkup.
But Jing Rui agreed with Jing Zhi that they were probably infertile.
He knew that Jing Zhi was born after thousands of embryo experiments. Lu couldnt get pregnant because the virus inside her body was too strong and her egg cells were almost dead.
The viruses in his and Jing Zhis bodies were mutated. They were more poisonous and optimized to transform the body, and the drawbacks were more obvious.
But Jing Rui didnt care much about it. He was already used to the virus in his body and the benefits it brought him. He had never thought about having a child with Shuyin.
He had once rejected Shu Chengshans request to marry Shuyin and only promised to take care of her. At least for now, Jing Ruis original intention had not changed.
Shuyin might not be willing to marry him either. She was only 18 years old, and the prime of her life had just begun. She should enjoy her life and search for love that belonged to her in the best years of her life.
Jing Rui stood in front of the French window of his bedroom with a ss of water in his hand. He wanted to calm down, but he could not.
He couldnt help but admit that the thought of Shuyin falling in love with another man made him very ufortable.
If the hands that he had carefully protected were touched by another man, he would probably be so angry that he wanted to kill someone!

Chapter 1056: The evil Jing Rui
Trantor: 549690339
Soon, everyone in the vi realized a problem: Jing Rui was in a bad mood.
It was hard to tell whether Jing Rui was in a good mood or not from his indifferent and expressionless face. But this time, it was so obvious that he was in a bad mood.
Han Feng came to report various matters to him, but he disdained Han Feng for talking too much, so he drove him away with a gloomy face.
Jing Zhi and Jing Xi were watching aedy in the living room. He thought they were too noisy and sent them to Jing Zhis Vi.
The maid was not noisy, but she gestured to him to ask for money to go out and buy vegetables. In the end, he despised the maid for not even knowing how to speak!
The maid was on the verge of tears. She wanted to say something, but she couldn t!
Just now, she wasining that others were noisy. Wasnt it good that she was mute?
The maid felt very strange. A few days ago, this master was clearly a person who was easy to serve. Why did he suddenly turn hostile today?
Fortunately, even if the master fell out with her, the money she gave was not reduced at all. The maid took arge amount of cash and went out to buy vegetables with a big cloth bag.
Shuyin was lying on the bed, pretending to be dead. She had heard Jing Rui picking on everyone. She didnt know what kind of drug this man had taken today. He shot whoever he caught, and even Jing Zhi had escaped with Jing Xi. She knew that she wasnt as good as Jing Zhi, so it was better to be honest.
However, even if she didnt leave the house, lying in bed without moving would still cause trouble!
A tall and imposing figure walked into her room. Without a word, he lifted her nket and reached out to unbutton her clothes!
Shu Yins soul flew out of her body!
She couldnt care less about the injuries in her body that had yet to fully recover. She sat up with a whoosh and clutched her chest as she retreated with all her might. She looked flustered and her tone was abnormally angry.Jing, are you crazy?
She ran away faster than a fish. Jing Ruis heart felt empty when he realized that he had nothing in his hands.
He grabbed Shuyins ankle with one hand and pulled her back.
Shuyin immediately screamed, Help me! Someone is raping a young girl!
Jing Ruis face darkened, but the emptiness he felt earlier was gone.
She was in his hands, and it made him feel at ease.
Her screams reminded him of how lively and lively she was.
His irascible heart had miraculously calmed down, and he no longer had that unpleasant feeling.
Stop shouting. This is my home, and my people are everywhere. No one wille to save you even if you shout until your throat breaks.
Shuyin red at Jing Rui. She suddenly felt that their conversation was like the lines of aedy that Jing Zhi and Jing Xi had just watched.
But she couldnt smile.
Although ... Jing Rui was handsome, had a good figure, had a good temperament, and even had a nice voice, it was not good to be pushed down by him.
She hadnt been in love yet, and she hadnt had a vigorous love yet. It was definitely a loss for her to be pounced on like this!
Should she be resisting fiercely?
Or should she pretend to obey Him first and then wait for an opportunity to resist?
But ...
Oh no. She could not resist when she saw Jing Ruis handsome face.
Jing Rui found it funny that Shuyin was frowning so hard.
Was he that scary?
With such a conflicted expression, could he be up to something?
He lowered his head slightly and saw the foot he was holding in his hand.
She was fair and delicate, with five round and cute little toes. Her nails were light pink and tender. One look and one could tell that she had not walked much. She was well taken care of.
She had spent most of her time in the Virus Research Institute, and aside from taking care of Jing Zhi, she had spent most of her time doing experiments in theb. She hadnt really walked much.
Jing Rui looked at the other foot, which had five pink toes, which were curled up because of nervousness.
He stretched out his hand and grabbed the other ankle, pulling it in front of him and admiring it.
Shu Yin was so shocked by his actions that she screamed again,You let go! If you touch me again, Ill give you a bottle of virus!
This was crazy!
He waspletely crazy!
Why did he take a fancy to her feet?
Whats there to look at?
Jing Rui was not afraid of Shuyins threat. Even if she had the virus, he would not be afraid.
He looked at Shuyins disloyal struggle and her feet trying to break free from his control. He had an evil thought. He rubbed his fingertips against Shuyins tender feet and scratched them gently.
Ah!
Shuyin couldnt control herself and started screaming again. This time, she wasughing uncontrobly as she screamed!
She was super ticklish!
Help! Stop scratching! Quickly ... Quickly let go!
In just a short while, Shuyin was already on the verge of a breakdown fromughing!
Jing Rui did not expect her to be so ticklish. He smiled when he saw herughing so hard that she was out of breath.
If you say youre wrong, Ill let you go.
Shuyin didnt know what she had done wrong, and she didnt think she should admit her mistake. The person who had done wrong was Jing Rui!
However, she was under the roof and her feet were in his hands. She admitted her mistake without hesitation.I was wrong! I beg you to let me go!
What did you just say? Your voice was too soft, I didnt hear you clearly.
Shuyin scolded him for being deaf and crazy in her heart, but she kept begging for mercy.I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong. Boss, youre a big man, dont hold it against a little girl!
Jing Ruis mood was lifted when he heard this.
The most important thing was that Shuyin had called him Boss, which made Jing Rui feel that they had gone back to the time when he had given the order and she had listened to everything.
At that time, Shuyin, who called him Boss, was so obedient. She did whatever she was told to do, and there werent so many male students surrounding her all day long, fighting to be her boyfriend.
Jing Rui finally let go of her and let go of Shuyins ankle.
As soon as Shuyin regained her freedom, she immediately hid her feet under the nket and curled up in the corner, looking at Jing Rui warily.
Jing Rui was trying to scare her and reached his hands into the nket.
Shuyin immediately started screaming.
When she was done, she realized that Jing Rui was just teasing her and did not even reach his hands into the nket. Her eyes widened, as if she could not believe what she was seeing.
Shuyin was still in shock. She had been innocent all her life, and the most outrageous thing was that Jing Rui had touched her hand!
But today, even her leg was touched by him!
He had already taken so much advantage of her, yet he still wanted to take advantage of her!
Last night, he was still cold and disdainful of her small breasts, and today, he was so desperate that he wanted to eat her up?
Chapter 1057
Chapter 1057: Failed escape!
Trantor: 549690339
The two of them stared at each other in the air, neither willing to lower their heads.
She looked too cute. Her eyes were glistening with tears, her delicate little nose kept sniffling, and her pearly white teeth were biting her ruddy lower lip. She looked like she was gritting her teeth, not at all like the calm and cold woman with high IQ and EQ.
Jing Rui couldnt help but chuckle.
It was the first time Shuyin had seen Jing Rui smile like that.
He neverughed out loud. No matter how happy he was, he would usually just raise the corner of his lips.
What was wrong with him today? he was actually smiling like a normal person!
Did teasing her give him such a sense of aplishment? Its so fun?
Hmph!
He was not a good person to build his happiness on her pain!
However, his smile was just too beautiful!
The sunlight that came in through the window shone on his handsome face, making his brows and eyes so warm. The ice that used to be cold seemed to melt with his smile.
There was no more indifference in his dark eyes. Instead, they were full of smiles. His eyes were deep and warm, making one want to drown in his gentle gaze and never wake up again.
Shuyin suddenly felt that Jing Rui should notugh.
She wasnt sure how long she could resist this smile!
He was so cold and indifferent, but he was gradually invading her heart. If he was as gentle as water, Shuyin was afraid that she would immediately fall for him!
He was a high and mighty Prince, and she was just a Cindere without parents. Shuyin didnt have the confidence to walk into his life.
His family was prosperous, ancient, and Noble. It wouldnt be an exaggeration to marry a Princess in the future.
All she had to do was to protect her heart and live an ordinary life.
Jing Rui had enough ofughing. He looked up and saw Shuyin staring at him. Her eyes were full of confusion and helplessness. It made him feel pity for her.
Lie down and have a good rest. Dont remove the gauze on your hand. If you need anything, just let me know.
Okay, Shuyin nodded obediently.
But as soon as Jing Rui turned around and left, she jumped out of bed immediately, regardless of her hand or internal injury. She took off the gauze, put on her backpack, and climbed out of the window in her slippers without even changing out of her home clothes.
It would be a wonder if she would listen!
Jing Rui was so weird that he might tear her apart when he was in a bad mood. She did not want to stay here as a side dish.
At first, Shuyin thought that living here was the safest ce in the world, with the protection of two powerful assassins. If Zishans people came, one would die, and if two came, a pair would die.
But now, it seemed that this was not the case at all!
The vis garden was veryrge. Fortunately, Shuyin had a super good memory and sense of direction, otherwise she wouldnt have been able to find the door!
By the time she ran to the door, panting, she had lost her pair of slippers and her ribs were in great pain.
Shuyin knew that her ribs hadnt recovered at all in the past three to four days, but she couldnt care so much now. She was still young anyway. When she left this ce, she would bepletely fine after resting for ten days to half a month.
The door of the vi was tightly shut, and the courtyard wall was high. Shu Yin had to stop thinking about climbing over the wall.
She looked around and made sure that no one was paying attention to her. Then, she quietly opened the door a crack.
Jing Rui had told her that his men were guarding the vi, and she did not want to fall into their hands.
There was no one outside the door. Shuyin was overjoyed. She immediately pulled the door open and tiptoed out.
Even when she was ten meters away from the door, she still didnt encounter any obstacles.
Shuyin was both d and confused. Was it that easy to escape?
Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind her,Shuyin, its such a cold day. Where are you going barefooted?
Shuyin felt as if she had been sshed with a basin of cold water in the middle of winter. She was cold from the inside out, from head to toe!
She turned around stiffly and saw Jing Rui leaning against the high wall in a coffee-colored casual outfit. He looked so cold, but he was so damn handsome!
After she came out, she was so focused on walking forward that she didnt notice him leaning against the wall!
Did he ... Come out to wait for her?
Did he know that she was going to run away?
Shuyin pulled the corners of her mouth and forced a smile that was uglier than crying. She greeted Jing Rui in a rxed manner.Hey, Boss! Why are you ... Out there too? I was bored in my room, so I came out to get some fresh air! Hehe ... Mm, let me get some fresh air!
Jing Rui did not move. He leaned against the wall and said,It seems that my vi is not big enough. I actually need you toe outside to get some air.
He actually dared to escape!
He thought that she was really obedient, but it was all an act! He originally wanted to take a shower, but he received a call from Han Feng. Only then did he know that this girl had actually run out!
She was really bold to y this trick with him!
There was no point in calling him Boss!
Its useless no matter what you call!
Even from a dozen meters away, Shu Yin could clearly feel the dangerous aura that Jing Rui was exuding.
Oh no, she seemed to have angered this Lion!
Shuyin forced herself to remain calm.I ... That ... Im going back to the dormitory. I dont have any clothes to wear. Ill go back and get a few!
I bought you an entire wardrobe of clothes. Isnt it enough?
Oh, I still have a few books to read. Ill go back and get them!
Didnt I bring you your books long ago? You lost your memory? If youve lost your memory, I dont mind helping you to remember!
Jing Rui strode to Shuyin, picked her up, and walked into the vi.
Shu Yin panicked and struggled in his arms.Let me go, I dont want to go back! I want to go back to school!
You cant go anywhere without my permission!
You have no right to restrict my personal freedom. You, you, you ... Youre imprisoning me!
You dont even have a household register, so how can you talk about personal freedom? Who would know that Ive imprisoned you? How many people know youre still alive? Peter?Jing Zhi? Im sorry, but theyre all my people. Your life ispletely in my hands.
Jing Ruis voice was frighteningly cold. He strode into the vi with Shuyin in his arms, and the door behind him closed slowly.
Only then did Shuyin realize that the door to the vi was automatic!
She had opened the door because Jing Rui had let her out on purpose.
He was really ck-bellied!
This person was waiting to catch her outside!
Shuyin gave up and looked at Jing Rui provocatively.Alright, if you have the ability, then take my life! I dont know whos so desperate to take off my clothes!
Hunger?
Jing Rui stumbled and almost fell.
Who was desperate?
He was just trying to scare her!
She couldnt have fled because of this, right?

Jing Rui lowered his head and looked at Shuyins chest.
Shu Yin panicked and quickly covered her chest.What are you looking at? Whats there to see!
Jing Rui looked away and said calmly,Theres nothing to see.
Shu Yin was stunned and almost bit him!
Youre so young. Im not interested in you at all. Youd better not be too narcissistic.
No woman could stand being belittled by a man like this. Shuyin was so angry that her teeth itched. Finally, she couldnt help but pounce on his chest and bite him.
And Shu Yin bit the little bump on Jing Ruis chest!
Jing Rui groaned and almost lost his grip on Shuyin.
It was so painful and so numbing. An indescribable feeling spread through his entire body.
His blood flow sped up, his heart beat faster, and even his breathing was messed up!
Jing Rui felt a warm current quickly gathering in his lower body.
Damn it!
Didnt this woman know how to be reserved and avoid arousing suspicion?
Was this the ce she should bite?
If it wasnt for his strong self-control, Shuyin would probably be crying and begging for mercy right now!
His face was cold, and he said in a voice that was even more indifferent than usual,If you dont let go, Ill bite the same ce as you in return!
Actually, Shuyin knew that she had bitten somewhere she shouldnt have!
Hearing Jing Ruis threat, she was so scared that she stopped moving.
She wrapped her arms around her chest, as if she was afraid that Jing Rui would lower his head and bite her.
However, Jing Rui did not have any intention of biting her even when they were back in the room. He looked as indifferent as a statue.
With a beauty in his arms, he still didnt panic?
Or was she so ugly that Jing Rui was not interested in her?
Shuyin looked down at her chest as Jing Rui walked out of her room coldly. Then, she lifted her cor with one finger and looked down at her two plump breasts hidden in her bra.
Which part of it is small? Which part of it was small? If you say Im small, youre the small one! Youre so small, even peanuts are bigger than you!
Shuyin was so angry that she kept muttering in the room, but on the other hand, she was deeply suspicious.
Was she really that young?
Shuyin hadnt noticed this person before. She spent all her time in theboratory doing research, and the first thing she did when she saw someone was to check if they had any signs of infection. Why would she look at someones chest to measure the size of the person?
Shuyin couldnt help but reach out her other hand to pinch her chest, muttering indignantly,Its obviously not small! If it got any bigger, it would be a balloon! Did he like big balloons? You have no taste!
Jing Rui walked to the door with a hot towel and saw Shuyin pulling open her cor with one hand and measuring the size of her breasts with the other.
The scene was so exciting that Jing Rui felt that all the blood in his body was rushing down to a certain part of his body.
It had only been a few short seconds, but he was already on the verge of going crazy!
He immediately turned to leave, but that scene just now couldnt be forgotten!
The more he thought about it, the hotter he felt!
This was simply an endless loop!
Was it because he had never touched a woman before, so he couldnt control himself when he saw such a blood-pumping scene?
That was impossible.
He had been an assassin for so many years and had seen countless womens bodies. If this had happened every time, he would have been killed in the moment he was distracted!
He was sure that he had a strong self-control. In his eyes, women were not much different from men.
Moreover, Shuyin didnt take off her clothes at all just now. She only revealed a small patch of white on her chest.
Compared to the women in North America who showed half of their breasts and wandered around unscrupulously, it could be said that they did not show anything at all!
Jing Rui entered the bathroom, turned on the shower and took a cold shower.
When he reappeared in front of Shuyin, half an hour had already passed.
Seeing Jing Rui enter her room as if no one was around, Shuyin immediately shrank back. When she saw that Jing Ruis hair was wet and his body smelled of shower gel, she couldnt help but ask,You took a shower?
Jing Rui ignored her question and sat by the bed. He said,Give me your leg.
Shuyin couldnt care less about why Jing Rui was taking a shower at this time. She wrapped herself in the nket and chased him out.
This is my room. Do you even know that theres a personal privacy issue here? Cant you see that Im resting? Dont you know that you cant just barge into a girls room? The vi is so big, why do you have to squeeze into my room? Go back to your own room!
Give me your leg. Dont make me say it a third time. You cant afford the consequences.
Jing Ruis voice was calm, but there was an irresistible power in it. Shuyin felt that if she did not teach him, he would cut off her legter.
She gritted her teeth and stuck her feet out of the nket.
Jing Rui held her ankle and saw that both of her feet had been wiped clean, but there were small wounds on the soles of her feet. Shuyin let the blood flow out of the small wounds without applying any medicine or dressing.
Jing Rui picked up the ointment and applied it on Shuyins feet.
Shuyin couldnt help but withdraw her foot.
Jing Ruis eyes turned cold. He tightened his grip on her ankle and looked up at her.
His cold gaze made Shuyins hair stand on end. She had no choice but to tell the truth,Itchy!
Your sole is bleeding. In the future, if you want to die, just run outside!
Jing Rui lowered his head to apply the medicine and bandage for her.
His movements were very light, and the itch on Shu Yins feet disappeared by half.
However, even though her feet were no longer itchy, her heart was extremely itchy!
She had never thought that one day, Jing Rui, who was always bossing her around, would apply medicine for her feet.
Wasnt he a little too good to her?
She had once been covered in wounds and had struggled on the edge of life and death for a long time. She had lost the courage and will to live countless times.
Because she felt that she was living alone in this world. No one would dote on her, no one would love her, and no one would care about her life or death. No one would feel sorry for her.
After losing her parents, the first time she felt care for her was from such a cold and emotionless man.
Shuyins heart was filled with warmth. She looked at Jing Ruis handsome face and couldnt help smiling.
He spoke so ruthlessly, and his face was indifferent, but his heart was gentle.
If he didnt care about her, he wouldnt have noticed that her foot was cut.
Jing Rui held Shuyins foot in his hand, and his heart never stopped beating.
Because she walked very little and was a young girl, her feet were as smooth as an egg without its shell.
Perhaps it was because she was nervous, but her five toes were tightly closed together, making her look cute and attractive!

If her hands and feet were so beautiful, would the rest of her body be as beautiful as well?
Jing Rui took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to touch Shuyins calf.
However, when it was time for the other foot, Jing Rui couldnt help but touch Shuyins toes.
Shuyin pulled her foot back instinctively, screamed, andughed.
She was still very ticklish. She had already tried her best when Jing Rui applied the medicine, but now that he had touched her on purpose, she could not help it anymore.
Jing Rui grabbed her foot and held it tightly in his hand.
Dont move, Im applying medicine for you, what are youughing at!
No, no, no! Dont touch me, I cant stand it! It was too itchy! Hahaha ...
Jing Rui scratched Shuyins feet again.Do you dare to run?
Shuyin wanted to roll around in bed!
It was too ufortable!
She smiled and admitted her mistake,I dont dare! I wont dare to do it again. Let go of me quickly, Im going to die! Its itchy, itchy, itchy!
Say youre wrong!
I was wrong, I was wrong!
Shuyin finally realized that Jing Rui liked to hear her admit her mistakes.
It was really ... A hobby that was extremely controlling!
After the maid came back from buying groceries, she heard shrieksing from Shuyins room, along with intermittentughter and begging for mercy.
The maid smiled and shook her head. She took the bags of fresh ingredients and went to the kitchen to cook.
Young people really didnt know how to control themselves. Shuyins body had just recovered a little, but the male owner didnt know how to take pity on her. With such a tormenting method, she probably wouldnt be able to get out of bed tomorrow!
The next day, Shuyin really couldnt get out of bed!
Of course, she was not tortured by Jing Rui. Jing Rui had only scratched her foot.
The reason why she couldnt get out of bed was that one of her heel was extremely swollen. It hurt the moment she touched it, and she couldnt walk at all!
She could only me herself for this.
Who asked her to run for her life yesterday and run away with her slippers? as a result, her heel was struck many times and she was even cut by the stones.
She was really unlucky. She had not recovered from her old injuries yet, and now her hands and feet were wrapped by Jing Rui. She was really half disabled!
Yesterday, her heel wasnt swollen, but today, when she got up, she found that her foot was swollen like a fat bun.
She had no choice but to ask the maid to bring her an ice pack, hoping that it would reduce the swelling. She could not stay at Jing Ruis ce forever.
It was so easy for a man and a woman to have problems when they were alone!
Jing Rui did not want to push her down because of her small breasts. Was he not afraid that she would not be able to resist his male hormones and push him down?
As the saying goes, love grows with time. Shuyin felt that she couldnt continue to be so muddled.
Jing Rui didnt know that Shuyin had the intention of pouncing on him, but he knew that Shuyin didnt want to stay here any longer.
He stood in front of the clean and bright floor-to-ceiling window and called Jing Zhi.
Ah Chi, how do you chase a girl?
Pfft ...
Jing Zhi spat out the mouthful of orange juice he had just drunk.
The impact was so great that the cup in his hand fell to the floor with a crisp crack.
Second brother, how old are you? Jing Xiined.How can you choke on orange juice? Youve wasted this ss! I personally squeezed this for you, and I added a lot of nutrients to it. There are bitter chrysanthemums, bitter gourds, wasabi, garlic ... Second brother, you didnt want to drink it, so you spat it out on purpose, did you?
Cough, cough, cough ...
Jing Zhi choked and his face turned red. He ignored the little devils nagging and asked without even panting,Brother, what did you just say?!
Jing Rui listened to the messy voice on the other end of the phone and repeated in a good mood,I want to ask you how you woo girls.
Jing zhishen thought he was hallucinating.
He looked as if he had been struck by lightning and asked in a daze,Whos going after a girl?
Jing Rui suddenly felt that it was a mistake to ask Jing Zhi about this!
He had thought that Jing Zhi was someone who had been in love before, and Zheng yuluo had been following him so obediently. He had wanted to ask for his experience, but it seemed that he was also an idiot!
Jing Rui shook his head.Forget it. You can have your juice.
Jing Zhi knew that Jing Rui was going to hang up the phone, so he said hurriedly,Don t, brother! I know how to chase girls! I have a lot of experience, and there are many female killers in our killer organization who like me!
Jing Rui hesitated for a moment and asked,How?
Who do you want to court?
Jing Rui was silent.
Brother, is it Shuyin? Jing Zhi asked tentatively.
Jing Zhi knew that he had guessed right when Jing Rui did not deny it. He had always felt that his brother treated Shuyin differently.
But Jing Zhi still gasped when he found out.
Brother, Im afraid this matter is a little tricky!
I know. Thats why I have to steal her heart first, then the person. Even if she finds out about everything in the future, I dont have to worry about her leaving.
Even though Jing Rui could not see it, Jing Zhi still gave his brother a thumbs up.
Big brother still knows how to chase girls!
Okay, I support big brother!
What Jing Rui wanted was not Jing Zhis support. It did not matter. What he wanted was a way to capture a girls heart!
Although Jing Zhi was both excited and worried, he didnt forget what his brother wanted to ask. He said,
Women are easy to woo! You just need to change the order you just used! It was very easy for him to get her first and then steal her heart! Big brother, youre so outstanding, handsome, and have a good figure. If you take off all your clothes and lie on the bed like that, the little tree shade will automatically burrow into your arms!
Jing Ruis face darkened. If hey down on Shuyins bed, Shuyin would kick him off the bed immediately, regardless of the fact that her foot was still swollen.
No, no, no, if he were to strip naked, he wouldnt be able to enter the room, let alone the bed!
Shuyin would definitely jump out of the window without even wearing her shoes!
Also, in order to reduce her pain and amplify her happiness, brother, you can give her some medicine! Peter has a lot of them. The effects are quick and there are no side effects. Its a medicine with a conscience!
Oh, by the way, you can also find another woman to put on a show to make little Shenyu jealous. Only then will she realize your position in her heart! Only then will I have a sense of danger and take the initiative to approach you!
What kind of stupid idea was this!
If he used all these methods, Shuyin would definitely get further and further away from him.
It was a mistake to ask Jing Zhi for help.
Jing Rui had been worried that he would drink his sisters dark drink, but now he felt that the girl had done a good job!

Chapter 1060: Great good news
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui interrupted Jing Zhis thoughts and said coldly,Alright, I dont need your ideas! But you cant tell anyone about this, including Xixi!
Dont worry, Jing Zhi promised.Im the best at keeping my mouth shut. Only you and I will know. No one else will know!
All the killers had been trained to extort confessions, and it was harder than ascending to heaven to get some secrets out of them.
Jing Rui hung up the phone and went to think about it.
But Jing Zhi had betrayed his brother in less than five minutes!
Second brother, was it my brother who called you just now? Why does it sound like its about women?
Jing Xi was holding a Big Apple in her arms, crunching it loudly. She smiled sweetly as she sat on Jing Zhisp with her hair down. She looked so innocent and cute.
Jing Zhi, on the other hand, shivered and his body stiffened.
The little girl had been very diligent in making juice for him today, but in the end ... How could that be juice? she had put all kinds of random things in it, and it was not as good as ink!
If he didnt drink it, Jing Xi would roll on the ground and cry!
Jing Zhi felt his hair stand on end when he saw how obedient Jing Xi was.
But he didnt want to betray his brother!
Jing Zhi bit the bullet and said,haha ... You heard wrong. I was just chatting with our brother! I just casually mentioned a few words about my romantic history, thats all!
Second brother, if you tell me the truth, Ill be obedient today. If you dont tell me the truth, youll have to be obedient today. Who do you choose to be obedient to?
Jing Xi said as she put the half-eaten Apple in front of Jing Zhi.
A chubby white Worm crawled out of the Apple and climbed up the Apple. It didnt take long for it to reach Jing Zhis face.
Jing Zhi was going crazy.
Why wasnt this girl afraid at all when she ate bugs?
And he was eating so happily just now!
Even if this white and fat insect could supplement protein, it didnt have to be eaten raw, right?
How did this little girl know that he was most afraid of this kind of insect?
He had once eaten white worms at the Virus Research Institute for an entire year. The Research Institute had said that these worms had high nutritional value and that no one else could eat them. He was the most important person in the Institute, so he had the right to eat them every meal!
Jing Zhi wanted to throw up when he saw these insects.
Sister, Ill kneel down to you, okay? Jing Zhi said with tears on his face. Ill talk, Ill talk, Ill say everything! Do a good deed and let your second brother live for two more years!
Brother, Im sorry. Xixi isnt an outsider, shes just a little kid, so it doesnt matter if she knows about this!
Soon, Jing Xi found out what her two brothers had just said.
She was so excited that her eyes glowed and the Apple fell on the table. She grabbed Jing Zhis phone and called Shangguan ning.
Mom, let me tell you a piece of good news! My brother has fallen in love with a girl called Shuyin. Shes really pretty! Shes the second most beautiful person Ive ever seen! Hes pursuing her now, so do you think I should help?
Shangguan ning had been talking to her daughter on the phone every day. She had thought that something had happened when she suddenly received a call from her daughter today. After all, it would be abnormal if nothing had happened when her daughter was around.
Who knew that his daughter would actually report such great news!
Shangguan ningughed happily,thats great! I was worried that your brother would be like your father, only awakening in his thirties. Now, hes only twenty and already knows how to chase girls. You must help your brother!
She was very clear about her daughters taste. The little girl was not old, but she was very picky. She would not say that ordinary people were beautiful.
If she said that Shuyin was the second most beautiful person, then she must be very beautiful.
In a daughters heart, her mother would always be the most beautiful person.
Yes, sir!
Jing Xi quickly hung up the phone after she finished her report.
Shangguan ning, on the other side of the phone, didnt know that she had been tricked by her daughter until she heard the busy tone.
She had been very against Jing Xi going to North America with Jing Rui. It was the first time that her daughter had been so far away from her, and she was very worried about her daughter.
So, every time she called, she would ask Jing Xi toe home immediately.
Jing Xi had gone wild and did not want toe back at all, so she deliberately hung up the phone before she could react so that Jing Xi would not have to listen to her nagging!
Hes really getting smarter!
Shangguan ning didnt know if it was a good thing or a bad thing for her daughter to be so weird, but she was still very happy that her son had fallen in love with a girl.
She called Jing Yichen at once.
Yichen, our son has a girlfriend! Xixi told me just now. What do you think our son ns to say about marrying her? When are theying back? Shouldnt we prepare more meeting gifts for the girls? I dont know what she likes ...
Jing Yichen was also very happy. After chatting with his wife for a while, he hung up the phone and called his father.Dad, your grandson is bringing his granddaughter-inw home. When do you think we should set the wedding date?
Hearing that his grandson had a granddaughter-inw, Jing zhongxiu couldnt stop smiling. He pulled his friend Huang lihan to show off.Huang, my grandson is very capable. Ruirui will have a son soon! Youre here for a Full Moon Party!
Half an hourter, everyone except Shuyin knew about Jing Ruis story, and the rumors were getting more and more outrageous. The final version even had a child!
If Jing Rui had known that he had only asked how to woo a girl and things had turned out this way, he would have beaten Jing Zhi up.
Jing Rui could not even touch Shuyin, let alone the child.
In order to prevent Jing Rui from changing the gauze for her, Shuyin would always apply the ointment in advance, and she would apply it many times a day to recover faster.
Fortunately, Jing Rui seemed to be very busy these days. He was either in the study or out.
Shuyin heaved a sigh of relief.
Her body was almost fully recovered. The marks on her hands had disappeared without a trace and were as smooth as before. The wounds on her feet had also healed quickly. She had no problem walking.
Since she had already recovered, she really could not continue to live here.
Shuyin packed her things and went to say goodbye to Jing Rui.
Youre leaving?
Yes, I should go back to school. I must have missed a lot of sses there, and I need to make up for them one by one.
Jing Rui nced at the psychological strategy on his phone and said,Alright, you can go back if you want to!
Hearing him agree so readily, Shuyin couldnt help but heave a sigh of relief. She turned and left.
And Jing Ruis psychological strategy said,The first move of the psychological attack was to y hard to get.

Shuyin was not stopped even after she left Jing Ruis Vi and returned to school.
It seemed like he had really set her free.
Shuyin thought of Jing Ruis handsome face, and her heart fluttered.
He was indeed a cold person and would not be moved by a woman.
Shuyinughed at herself a little. She thought she was a pretty person, but there were so many people chasing after her in school, causing her to misjudge her own charm.
Wasnt she overthinking things?
Jing Rui stood in front of the window on the second floor and watched Shuyins figure disappear before he turned to change his clothes and left.
Although he had let Shuyin go, Jing Rui did not want her to go back alone.
He was prepared to give Shuyin a few days to think about what had happened in the past few days. At the same time, he wanted to see if she would feel that her life had be boring without him.
Jing Rui followed Shuyin all the way back to the school. He felt much better when he saw that there were no male students following her or blocking the door of her dormitory.
In Jing Zhis Vi, Jing Zhi and Jing Xi were having a heated argument about whether they should help their brother pursue his sister-inw.
Jing Xi wanted to go back and live with her brother. She also wanted to help her brother create some small idents so that the two of them could be together quickly.
But Jing Zhi felt that they should be allowed to develop their rtionship freely. With his brothers ability, he could easily win over Shuyin without the help of anyone! Furthermore, if the two of them went back, they would be like two high-watt light bulbs!
How could she fall in love like this?
If Jing Xi went back, her brother couldnt do anything bad, or he would be a bad influence on the underaged!
But Jing Xi didnt need to be taught at all. She basically knew what she shouldnt know.
Second brother, lets go back and help! I want brother to make sister-inw his woman so that my little nephew can be born soon! Their progress is so slow now, when will they be able to have sex?
The little girls words were so shocking that even Jing Zhi, who was a straightforward man, couldnt bear it.
Cough, cough, cough! Dont talk nonsense. Didnt you make a bottle of bubbles yourself? Hurry up and go y, dont blindly get involved in big brothers matters!
Im not talking nonsense. I know that you and sister luoluo have already had sex! Big sister luoluo is so beautiful and has a good temper. She even has a twin sister. Second brother, youre really lucky with women!
Jing Zhis eyes almost fell out of their sockets.
Was he talking to an eight-year-old girl or an eighteen-year-old female hooligan?
Who on earth did Jing Xi learn to roll around in bed from?
Jing Zhi rubbed Jing Xis head, feeling both angry and amused.
What nonsense are you talking about? your little head is filled with adult things all day long, be careful that you wont grow up in the future! However, you can help me, but you cant go too far. Youre not allowed to drug Shuyin, and you cant drug brother, do you hear me?
Jing Xi patted Jing Zhis shoulder and sighed.Sigh, second brother, your IQ is really worrying. You dont know anything other than drugging people, do you? Do I look like someone who can drug people? Thats too low-level. If you want to y, y with the high-level one!
Jing Zhi regretted it immediately. He frowned and said,Little sister, can we stop ying? The advanced games youre ying can destroy the earth. Im afraid! If you dont help and break them up, our brother will definitely beat me up!
He had already seen too many of Jing Xis tricks that were impossible to guard against. If Shuyin were to be tormented by this little girl, she would be half-dead if not dead!
Dont worry, I wont make things worse! You have to believe in my intelligence!
Jing Xi said as she skipped out.Second uncle and second aunt are like an immortal couple now. Theyve gone out to y for so many days withouting home. Second brother, you really dont have a sense of existence as a son.
Jing Zhi followed behind her like a bodyguard. He didnt care about what she said and said,My parents have a good rtionship, so whats wrong with going on a honeymoon together? Anyway, Im their only son. Theyll miss me in a few days, so theyll naturallye back!
MMM, Im going to find someone whos good to me in the future and go on a honeymoon with him every day! No, I have to n this properly. Other than North America, I havent been to any other ce! I have to find someone to carry my bags, so we can go together!
Dont you think its a little too early to n for a honeymoon?Jing Zhi stumbled.
Itste! You see, Im eight years old this year, so Ill first look for a handsome boy between five to fifteen years old, then train him for a few years and make himpletely mine. We still need to spend a few more years together to get used to our characters and cultivatemon interests.
Jing Xi counted with her fingers.
Oh, right. Even if we are together, I still have to test him for two more years to test his loyalty. If he has an affair, I can change to another one as soon as possible! Changing to another one might not be suitable. It might take a few changes to find the best one. Second brother, tell me, how many years will it take? Its not early for me to start preparing! Fortunately, Ive been preparing for this sincest year!
Jing Zhi was dumbfounded. What the hell was this?
He didnt understand the little devils world!
Cant she just blow her bubbles properly?
One moment she was a little loli, the next she was a little witch, one moment she was a cute child who didnt know anything about the world, and the next moment she was so old and mature!
Was this a case of schizophrenia?
How good would it be to be a beautiful woman in peace!
Would such a demon be able to get married in the future?
...Eh, second brother, dont just stand there. Quickly carry me to big brother. Im just a child, dont you know how to respect the old and love the young?
Now, she knew that she was a child!
The tone of his voice just now waspletely like that of an old demon!
The brother and sister went to find Jing Rui, but he was not there. They waited at home until midnight, when Jing Rui finally came back.
As soon as Jing Rui got home, Jing Xi called him brother sweetly and threw herself into his arms.
Jing Xi knew that her brother would not be able to resist her. Every time she threw herself at him, he would chuckle and hug her.
This time was no exception.
Jing Rui hugged his sister and said with a smile,Its sote, why arent you sleeping? You need enough sleep now, or you wont grow tall.
Jing Xi didnt believe that she wouldnt grow tall. It was hereditary, and there was no short person in her family. She would definitely grow tall!
So, Jing Xis focus was not on height. Her focus was on Chenchen.
Brother, youre back sote. Did you go to bed with sister Shuyin?

Chapter 1062: Ill sacrifice myself
Trantor: 549690339
The smile on Jing Ruis face froze, and he looked at Jing Zhi with a sharp gaze.
Jing Zhi immediately shook his head and said,it has nothing to do with me! She was just guessing! Xixi has recently learned the word rolling around in bed, and she likes to use it everywhere. In fact, she doesnt even know what it means!
Jing Xi immediately exposed him,Who says I dont know? Rolling in the sheets means a man and a woman, naked on the bed ...
Before she could finish, Jing Zhi covered her mouth and took her away from Jing Ruis arms.
Jing Rui was helpless against his sister. He was sure that Jing Zhi had revealed his secret to the public.
Otherwise, Jing Xi would not have asked such a question.
Jing Rui finally realized how troublesome it was to have a genius child in the family.
Although he was much more obedient than Jing Xi when he was a child, he had also learned everything that he should know and should not know at a very young age.
At that time, he only felt that he was very powerful, but now that he saw his sister like this, he only felt a headache!
Thats enough, Xixi. Its already midnight. You should go to bed now. Dont say things like rolling in the sheets again!
Then you have to tell me, why did sister Shuyin leave? Did you two quarrel?
Jing Xi was already very tired.
She looked at her brother and knew that he and Shuyin didnt have sex at all. They might not even be holding hands.
She was deeply worried for her brother, afraid that he didnt know how to chase girls.
Her brother was always cold and did not smile. Girls would run away when they saw him!
Girls needed to be coaxed and pampered. They were all very soft. As long as they were willing to give sincerely, it was very easy to move them to hold the beauty in their arms!
Jing Rui looked at his sister and shook his head helplessly.We didnt quarrel. Her injuries have healed and she has gone back to school. Thats thest question. Now, go to sleep!
Although Jing Xi didnt quite believe her brothers words, it was indeed toote today. She would teach her brother all the 1001 ways to woo girls tomorrow!
Jing Xi yawned and wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis neck.Second brother, second brother, can you coax me to sleep?
As long as the little demoness was willing to sleep, he was willing to climb a mountain of daggers or plunge into a sea of fire!
Jing Zhi promised her with tears in his eyes,Alright, alright, alright. Ill put you to sleep!
Can you sing for me?
Sure!
You have to take pictures of me as you sing, thats how my mom coaxed me!
No problem!
I still want to hear you tell me a story!
Tell me, tell me!
Oh, I want to hear the story of a female ghost falling in love with a male zombie. Last time, you were only halfway through the story when the male Zombies head fell off, and then what? Why did he kiss a female ghost? Will two different species give birth to a ghost or a zombie?
Jing Rui had just thought that his sister had finally turned back into a normal girl and was much more childish than him, and then he heard such a horrifying story.
He finally couldnt help but rub his forehead, feeling a terrible headache!
He needed to quickly find a person who could lead his sister on the right track!
If she continued to follow Jing Zhi, she would only be more and more demonic.
The night passed, and Jing Xi saw Jing Rui in the dining room when she got up in the morning. She immediately picked up a small spoon and knocked on the ss.
Brother, why are you still dawdling at home! Dont eat anymore, go upstairs and change your clothes. Dress yourself up as handsome as you want! Then, Ill turn my sister into my sister-inw and have a meal with her! Whats the point of eating with a big eater like second brother? hell lower your Happiness Index!
Jing Zhi, who was sitting opposite Jing Rui, was suddenly attacked.
Jing Zhi looked at Jing Xi innocently. He was quite handsome, but why did he have no status in Jing Xis eyes?
Moreover, what was with this girls resentful look?
Those who did not know would think that he and Jing Rui were brothers, and Jing Xi was the older sister!
Jing Rui was amused by his sisters reaction. He put Jing Xi on the chair,id out the napkin for her, and said with a smile,Alright, little housekeeper, quickly eat your food! Youll grow old quickly if you worry so much.
Jing Xi had very good table manners. She had been able to eat by herself since she was very young. Jing Ruiid out the napkin for her and she said,Thank you, brother!
But after thanking him, she slowly ate her breakfast and gave her brother some ideas.
Big brother, women are especially vulnerable to small animals, children, and flowers and nts. How about this, for the sake of your future happiness, Ill make a sacrifice. What do you think?
Jing Rui raised his head and asked in confusion,You want to follow Shuyin?
Thats right. Just say that you and second brother are both busy with your careers and theres no one at home to take care of me. Ask her to take care of me, and then youll have an excuse to go on dates with her every day!
Jing Ruis expression did not change, but Jing Zhis eyes lit up. He gave Jing Xi a thumbs up.High!
This little girl really had a lot of ideas!
Send her to Shuyins ce as soon as possible. Jing Zhi would rather she tear down the University than go to his house!
But ... Would she drive Shuyin crazy?
Although Shuyin seemed to like Jing Xi, that was only because she had only seen the tip of the iceberg of the little devil. If she had seen the whole picture, would she not want to be the little devils sister-inw?
This was a matter of life and death!
The feeling of having ayer of his skin peeled off by the little demoness every day was really painful!
Jing Rui obviously had the same thought as Jing Zhi. His sister was not an ordinary girl. Even he, as her brother, sometimes wanted to tie Jing Xi up so that she could not make a fuss. It would be bad if Shuyin broke down.
I dont need you. Ill send you home in two days. You can continue to go to school, but youre not allowed to cause any more trouble!
Jing Rui thought for a while and decided to send Jing Xi back to A city. No matter what happened to her in A city, the Jing family would protect her. He was not the only one who had the final say in North America. If anything happened to Jing Xi, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Jing Xi didnt expect that she would be sent back to China instead of chasing after her brothers girlfriend.
She didnt even eat. She threw away her spoon and cried,Mom, brother is bullying me! He doesnt want me anymore! Wuwuwu ...
She was crying so hard, but Jing Rui exposed her little scheme mercilessly.Alright, stop pretending. Weve already done this a few times. Do you think Ill fall for it again?
Jing Xi stopped crying and said indignantly,Hmph, you actually didnt fall for it! Have my acting skills deteriorated? Im not leaving, I want to y here!
Jing Rui smiled and did not take it seriously.
However, when he went to look for Shuyin in the afternoon, he was surprised to find that the little devil had already run over to Shuyins side!
The two of them were talking andughing, and they were simply too intimate!

Jing Rui approached them and followed them quietly.
Shu Yin and Jing Xi, who were chatting andughing in front of them, didnt notice that someone was following them at all. They were still smiling and talking.
...Big brother may look cold and indifferent now, but he was even worse than me when he was young! Sister, you dont know, but two days ago, second uncle told me that my brother deliberately framed him when he was young. He lifted up sisters skirt and then framed second uncle, telling people that it was second uncle who made him do it!
Jing Ruis face stiffened. Was this girl his sister?
Was there anyone who would nder their own brother like this?
Shuyin wasughing so hard that she was on the verge of tears!
Jing Xi told her a lot of interesting stories about Jing Ruis childhood, and she listened with great interest, feeling that time had passed very quickly.
She had never thought that Jing Rui would be so fun when he was young.
It seemed that there was a reason for Jing Xis mischievous and yful personality. Her brother was like that, but now that he had grown up, he had be mature and indifferent.
Hes so bad, but it looks like Xixi is much more obedient than him. However, lets still give him a call and tell him that youre with me, okay? Otherwise, your brother will be worried when he cant find you.
Shuyins long hair fell over her shoulders. She was wearing a pair of light blue jeans and a simple white coat. She held her books in one hand and held Jing Xis hand in the other as they walked slowly on the path on the campus.
Her voice was extremely gentle, which was rare. With a deep smile, she looked youthful and full of energy.
The warm afternoon sun shone on the two girls, one big and one small. It was warm and happy, and it made people feel happy and happy.
Jing Rui, who was following behind them, suddenly felt that he could really send his sister to Shuyin. The image of them together was so beautiful. Jing Rui believed that Shuyin liked her sister very much. With her ability, she would have no problem taking care of Jing Xi.
But Jing Ruis only worry was that his sister was not very reliable. She liked to talk about his embarrassing stories and always got into trouble. It would be troublesome if she dragged Shuyin into it.
Sister, are you going to send me back? But I like you, not my brother. Can you not send me back?
A second ago, Jing Xi was still smiling and talking about her brothers embarrassing things, but the next second, her face changed. She looked miserable and her big eyes were filled with tears. She looked like an abandoned kitten. She looked so pitiful!
Jing Rui looked at his sisters side profile and knew that she was acting again, but Shuyin didnt know that. She was startled when she saw Jing Xi about to cry. She quickly squatted down and reached out to hold Jing Xi in her arms.
Okay, okay, okay, I wont send you back. You can y with me first, and Ill take you to ss, okay?
Shuyin knew that she wasnt a soft-hearted person with no principles. On the contrary, she was actually a cruel woman, so cruel that she could even be cruel to herself.
But when it came to Jing Xi, she waspletely soft-hearted.
A childs world was pure and free of impurities. They did not have any sense of utilitarianism.
This was especially so for little girls like Jing Xi. She was cute and beautiful. Although she was mischievous at times, she was also full of childlike interest. She was a smart and cute little girl. Shuyin only wanted to protect her and had no intention of chasing her away.
She didnt have a good childhood, and she didnt have parents who loved her, so she especially wanted Jing Xi to have a happy childhood and hope that her life would be full of love.
Of course, Jing Xi knew that Shuyin liked her. One of her goals foring here was to make Shuyin like her. This way, it would be easier for her to be her sister-inw!
Jing Xi was very happy that Shuyin had agreed to let her stay so easily. She bounced along with Shuyin.
Jing Rui followed behind them without saying anything. He felt his heart soften when he saw his sister and Shuyin together.
Her sister was like a happy bird, chirping non-stop. Shu Yin listened patiently with a smile on her lips. She would also ask Jing Xi questions from time to time, which made Jing Xi even more enthusiastic.
Jing Rui smiled and stopped following them. He went back to his car and waited for Shuyin toe to him.
His sister was with Shuyin, so Shuyin would definitely look for him.
It had to be said that Jing Xis idea was great. It simply made Shuyin take the initiative to approach him.
After a while, Jing Rui received a message from Shuyin. Xixi is with me. Ill take her out to y today. Come pick her upter.
Jing Ruis lips curled up slightly, but he only replied with one word,Alright.
However, Jing Rui appeared in front of Shuyin half an hourter.
Shuyin was listening to an old professors lecture with Jing Xi. When she turned around, she saw that there was someone beside her.
The ssrooms in North American universities were very free. Professors never called names in ss. Students could leave the ssroom freely if they had something to do or didnt like to listen. Of course, they could alsoe in to listen and participate in the discussion.
Therefore, Jing Ruis arrival did not attract Shuyins attention at all. Her attention was basically on Jing Xi.
The little girl was so smart that she could understand a lot of the biological knowledge that the professor was talking about!
Why are you here? Shuyins eyes widened as she asked softly.
Werent you the one who let me win?
I ... I told you toeter!
I was half an hourte. Im not te anymore, Im a lotte.
Shuyin was instantly infuriated!
He clearly knew what she meant, but he still had to twist it. Why didnt she realize that he was so bad before?
Jing Xi saw Jing Rui as well. She blinked her big eyes andined to Shu Yin,Sister, dont you like me anymore? Are you going to send me back to the Wolfs Den? Brother is busy every day, and no one cares about me. Are you not willing to take care of me?
Jing Xis tears began to fall.
How could Shuyin take this!
She quickly hugged the little girl andforted her while wiping her tears.No, no, how could I not like you? I was afraid that your brother would be worried if he couldnt find you, so I told him that you were safe. Who knew that he woulde so quickly? Dont worry, if you dont want to go back, you can stay here with me!
After Shu Yin finishedforting the younger one, she turned to the older one and said,If youre not free, why dont you let her stay with me for a few days? Ill take good care of her.
Jing Rui felt a little helpless. It seemed that it was useless for him to object now.
One insisted on following him, while the other liked to be followed. If he forcefully separated the two, he would be med by both!
He nced at Jing Xi and saw that her big eyes were full of slyness, and heughed in his heart.
Why was the little girl even more enthusiastic than him!
Did she really like Shuyin that much?
Or was he afraid that Shuyin would be snatched away?

Chapter 1064: Will you be pregnant?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui wasughing in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. He asked,If she follows you, where will she sleep at night? Eat what? What should I wear?
Shuyin looked at the little girl. Her clothes were a mess, and her shoes were dirty. She hadbed Jing Xis hair for her. Jing Rui and Jing Zhi didnt know how to tie braids. She was a beautiful girl, but she had been raised into a tough girl by two men.
Its fine, she said softly.Ill go buy a few more sets of clothes for Xixi to change into. You can also find a few of the clothes at your house that Xixi likes and bring them over. If she wants to eat, I can buy her some nutritious food. If she wants to sleep ...
The problem of sleeping wasnt easy to solve because Shuyins student dormitory only had single beds that couldnt fit two people.
I can go and buy Xixi a small bed.
Shuyin didnt want Jing Xi to live with her at first. She had her brother and cousin here, so she didnt have to take care of her as an outsider.
However, Jing Xi had made her feel so pitiful today. The little girl liked her so much, and she rarely had anyone to apany her. She was a little reluctant to let Jing Xi leave.
She began to think carefully about what she should buy for the little girl. Anyway, she had received arge sum of money when she worked with Jing Rui, and Jing Xi could buy her anything she liked.
Jing Rui said calmly when he saw her deep in thought,No need,
Xixi? Shuyin raised her head and frowned slightly.You dont agree to let Xixi live with me?
Jing Xi also red at her brother and said firmly,Brother, I dont like you anymore! I want to live with sister. Shes good to me and evenbed my hair for me, unlike you and second brother. In order not tob my hair for me, you even cut off my braids. Youre so bad!
The two brothers had indeed advised Jing Xi to cut her hair short so that she could take care of herself easily. This had always been on Jing Xis mind.
She had treasured her hair so much and had kept it for several years. It had finally grown long. How could she cut it off because of two idiots?
Jing Rui looked calm and said in a matter-of-fact tone,I agree to let Xixi live with you, but not in the school. Shell live in my house.
How can we do that!
Shuyin didnt want to go back to Jing Ruis ce. They were just half friends. What would it be like if she went back to his house?
Why not? Xixi is still growing, and she needs all kinds of nutrients. She cant eat outside with you. As for your cooking ... Xixi definitely cant eat it. Besides, if you stay at my ce, you wont have to worry about sleeping. Its even safer than going to school.
Jing Xi immediately understood what her brother meant.
Aiyo, so her brother was even more ck-hearted than her!
He still had to make Shuyin move back in!
If two people were to live together, anything could happen!
Her brother could also use his beauty to seduce sister Shuyin. Maybe she could call her sister-inw soon!
Seeing that Shuyin didnt agree, Jing Xi couldnt help but hug her arm and whine,Sister, my brother doesnt have time to take care of me. Can you live with me? Ille to school with you during the day, and Ill sleep beside you at night! In the past, it was always mom who coaxed me to sleep, but when something happened to you, big brother immediately brought me to North America to save you. Otherwise, I would still be in moms arms now! You cant just leave me!
Shuyin suddenly remembered that Jing Rui and Jing Xi hade to North America because of her.
Although she didnt know why Jing Rui had to bring Jing Xi with him when he came to save her, it was a fact that Jing Xi had not been home for a long time.
She kissed Jing Xis face guiltily and promised her,Alright, Ill put you to sleep and y with you in the future until youe home.
Shuyin felt that Jing Xi would not be staying here for long. Two days ago, Jing Rui had said that he would send Jing Xi back to A city. It was only a few days, so she should stay at Jing Ruis ce.
Jing Rui was right. His ce was indeed safer.
In the depths of her heart, she was nervous, but she was also inexplicably excited.
Shuyin lowered her head slightly and did not dare to look at Jing Rui.
Jing Xi was still a child. She was so happy that she wanted to push Shuyin into her brothers arms immediately!
However, this was too deliberate and would easily make Shuyin suspicious.
She sat there with her hands under her chin. She rolled her eyes and suddenly had an idea.
Jing Xi covered her stomach with her little hand and suddenly cried out,Sister, my stomach hurts!
Shuyin was shocked. She hurriedly carried Jing Xi and sat her on herp. She asked her nervously,Xixi, what happened? Did she eat something bad? Ill send you to the hospital now!
She had had lunch with Jing Xi this afternoon. She was worried that there was something wrong with the food and that it might have made Jing Xis stomach ufortable.
Jing Xi wasnt sick at all. If they went to the hospital, they would be exposed!
Im fine. Sister, can you help me rub my stomach? Ill be fine after mom massaged me in the past!
Shuyin didnt know that the little girl was such a liar. She could only rub Jing Xis belly and ask Jing Rui for help.
What do we do? Xixis stomach was hurting! I took her to eat pizza at noon. Is there a problem with the pizza?
Im fine, Ill be fine after rubbing it!
Jing Rui did not know what his sister was up to, but he knew that she was pretending, so he answered her casually.
Shuyin was so angry that she had the urge to hit someone!
How could there be such a perfunctory brother!
The child was insensible. It would be fine if she said to rub it. If she really had an upset stomach, rubbing it would be useless!
No wonder Xixi insisted on following her and refused to let Jing Rui and Jing Zhi take care of her.
Shuyin realized that Jing Rui was not reliable, so she tried to persuade Jing Xi.Xixi, Ill take you to the hospital, okay? It wont hurt anymore after the doctor takes a look at you!
Jing Xis stomach hurt, and Shuyin was no longer in the mood for ss. The old professor was sitting below the podium, discussing a topic with a group of students around him. She was originally interested in the field of gic inheritance, but now she couldnt care about anything else.
But Jing Xi refused to go to the hospital. She was afraid of injections, medicine, and even the doctor.
Big brother, rub my stomach for me too. When my stomach hurts, mom and dad can rub my stomach together and it wont hurt anymore! Why dont you care about me?
Jing Rui had no choice but to y along with the girl and rubbed her belly.
Jing Xi was only eight years old, and her belly was only the size of a palm. They could not rub it together.
She pressed her brothers big hand on Shuyins hand without any hesitation and asked innocently,Sister, will you get pregnant after brother holds your hand? My mother said that she had me because my father held her hand!
Chapter 1065
Chapter 1065: The youth that an 18-year-old should have
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyins fair, Jade-like face quickly turned into a ripe red apple!
Obviously, Jing Xis mother had lied to her. Of course, it was impossible for her to be pregnant by shaking hands!
When her hand touched Jing Rui s, Shuyins face was already red and her heart was beating fast, and with Jing Xis words ...
At this moment, Shuyin really wanted to find a hole to hide in!
She put her hand on Jing Xis stomach, and Jing Ruis big hand covered hers, while Jing Xis two small hands were pressed on Jing Ruis hands.
Shuyin wanted to pull her hand out, but she didnt seed!
Sister, will you get pregnant? Jing Xi was still asking. Will you also have a baby?
Shuyin didnt even dare to look at Jing Ruis expression. She tried to speak as calmly as she could.You wont get pregnant by shaking hands ...
Then how do I get pregnant?
Shuyin opened her mouth, but she couldnt say anything!
How was she going to exin this to an eight-year-old girl?!
She didnt want to lie to Jing Xi. She couldnt let her think that a simple shake of the hand or a simple touch would make her pregnant. It was not good to mislead her!
But he definitely couldnt tell the truth!
Jing Rui saw that Shuyin was almost going to hide under the table because of his sisters embarrassment. He finally pulled his hand back and said to Jing Xi,Dont mess around. If you do, Ill send you home.
His voice was soft, but Jing Xi could sense his seriousness.
Jing Xi rolled her eyes at him, cursing him in her heart. Stinky brother, she had tried so hard to help him, but not only was he not grateful, he evenined that she was causing trouble!
Hmph! When sister Shuyin was snatched away, he would cry!
Shu Yins hand separated from Jing Rui s, and the heat disappeared. She finally felt much more at ease.
Xixi, does your stomach still hurt?
Im much better. Big sister, you helped me rub it very effectively!
Jing Xi smiled sweetly at Shuyin and thought,Im sorry, sister Shuyin. Youre destined to be my sister-inw. Let my brother take advantage of you first. Youll be his sooner orter anyway!
However, she decided not to pretend to be sick in the future. Shuyin had been so anxious just now, and Jing Xi felt quite guilty about it.
The young woman had no idea how many times her brother had touched Shuyins hand!
Todays situation simply paled inparison!
At this point, there was no way to continue the ss.
And Jing Rui was sitting right next to Shuyin. Even if he just sat there without saying anything or showing any expression, he was already a shining figure that could blind people.
Shuyin couldnt ignore him at all. Several female students in the ss were also eager to try, and they couldnt be bothered to discuss the topic with the professor.
Most of the students in the ssroom were European and American. Jing Xi also noticed that a few blonde girls were flirting with her brother.
Although her brother was a childless man who was indifferent to girls who tried to flirt with him, Jing Xi didnt want Shuyin to misunderstand him.
She took Shuyins hand and walked away, and Jing Rui followed behind them.
The three of them walked on the quiet campus. At Jing Xis strong request, Jing Rui and Shuyin held her hand and walked on the tree-lined path.
The campuss greenery was very good. The tall trees had already sprouted green shoots, and the grass on the ground had also sprouted. The spring breeze brushed against their faces, and they were full of spring and vitality.
Shuyin rarely went out for a walk like this. She used to be alone. Other than studying, she was doing experiments. She had no intention ofing out to y.
Today, when she was walking around the campus with Jing Rui and Jing Xi, she suddenly realized that life could be so beautiful!
She was rxed and happy. She liked both the adult and the child around her and could trust them. She didnt need to hide herself or have any scruples. She couldugh and make a scene if she wanted to!
This was the youth that an 18-year-old should have!
It didnt take long for Jing Xi to run away, giggling. Shu Yin chased after her and picked up a feather to tickle her.
Jing Xiughed so hard that she couldnt catch her breath. She ran around the campus and picked up a feather to scratch Shuyin.
Shuyin was very ticklish, so the two of themughed and yed around.
Jing Rui followed behind them, willing to be their protector.
At this moment, he had never felt so rxed and happy before.
Under the sun, white clouds floated in the blue sky, and crispughter could be heard from time to time. The figures of the two people shuttled between the tall trees like two happy birds.
Jing Rui knew that his sister did not have many ymates.
She was a genius little girl, and her identity was extremely special. Even though she had so many ssmates in school, none of them could hang out with her.
Today, she was also very happy!
Although Shuyin was ten years older than Jing Xi, the two of them were surprisingly simr in temperament and got along so well together!
The sun shone through the branches and cast golden rays on the grass. It was dreamy and beautiful.
Jing Ruiughed as he watched Shuyin carry Jing Xi. He couldnt help but feel that when he had a child in the future, he would take the child out to y.
This was the first time he had ever felt like he liked children.
For the first time, he realized that it would be a terrible problem if he could not have children.
He could keep the matter of Shucheng mountain a secret from Shuyin for the rest of his life, but if he couldnt have a child with Shuyin, it would be a lifelong regret!
Jing Rui looked at Shuyins beautiful and delicate face from afar. He wanted a daughter, and it would be best if she looked like Shuyin.
He walked over to the two of them and passed a bottle of water to his sister and another to Shuyin.
Shuyin took it with a smile, her voice crisp and happy.Jing Xis brother, thank you!
It was obvious that she was in a good mood, better than ever!
She liked children!
Jing Xi, who was next to Shuyin, mimicked her and said to Jing Rui,Jing Xis brother, thank you!
Mischievous fellow!
Jing Ruiughed and rubbed Jing Xis head with one hand, while the other went to rub Shuyins head.
Shuyin froze. She choked on the water she had just drunk, and then she started coughing violently.
Jing Rui patted her back and said,How old are you? how can you choke on water? Xixi is fine.
Jing Xi smiled and moved closer to Shuyin. Seeing that she had stopped coughing, she said,How old are you? how can you choke on water? Xixi is fine.
It was obvious that she was teasing them. Shuyins face was already red from choking, and after beingughed at by the two siblings, her face turned even redder.
Shuyin was so angry that she poured some water into her palm and sshed it on Jing Ruis face, Jing Rui s, and Jing Xis face.
Aiya, sister, you sneaked an attack!
Jing Xiughed and shouted. Then, she followed Shu Yins example and poured water on her hands and then on her face.
Big brother, quickly help me take revenge! Lets give sister Shuyin a cold bath, hahaha ...

Trantor: 549690339
The three of them had a lot of fun. Jing Rui had never yed like this in his life. He was a strong fighter, and in the end, Shuyin and Jing Xi sprayed the mineral water in their hands on Jing Rui.
Not far away, Han Feng, who was responsible for the safety of the three of them, and another subordinate were all dumbfounded.
They had been with Jing Rui for a long time, but they had never seen him so childish.
Could it be that ... Falling in love really lowered ones IQ?
The sun was setting, and the three of them walked home hand in hand.
The afterglow of the setting sun elongated the shadows of the three people, making them look beautiful beyond words.
Today is the happiest day of my life! Big Brother, Big Sister, I love you! Do you guys love me?
I love you!
I love you.
Jing Xi giggled. Haha, does this count as them confessing to each other?
She was jumping up and down all the way and was extremely happy.
Han Feng drove Jing Ruis car and followed them slowly. The three of them did not take the car but went back excitedly. The school was at least 20 kilometers away from the vi.
Was it because bosss intelligence had dropped, or was it because ... He wanted to pamper women?
The early spring wind was still cold, and the three of them were all wet. As expected, they didnt walk for long before they entered the car.
Han Feng was the driver, Jing Rui was in the passengers seat, and Jing Xi and Shuyin were in the back.
Jing Ruis coat was in the back seat. Shuyin was afraid that Jing Xi would feel cold, so she took it and wrapped it around Jing Xis body, regardless of how expensive it was.
But Jing Xi insisted that Shuyin put it on, and Shuyin didnt agree, so Jing Xi suggested,Sister, put on your coat and hug me. That way, we wont be cold!
Jing Xi felt that the best way was to wear a coat and let her brother carry Shuyin.
This way, the three of them would feel warm!
It was a pity that sister Shuyin was too shy. She definitely wouldnt let her brother hug her. However, it was the same wearing her brothers coat!
In the end, Shuyin still didnt turn the little girl away. She put on Jing Ruis coat and held Jing Xi in her arms. She took out a scarf from her backpack and used it as a towel to dry Jing Xis hair.
Jing Rui smiled and turned up the air conditioner in the car.
He had gone too far today. He hoped that the older and younger girls would not catch a cold.
The three of them only returned to the vi after the sky had turnedpletely dark.
Shuyin felt a little emotional. When she left yesterday, she thought that she would nevere back. She didnt expect that she woulde back after just one night.
But she was really happy today, and Jing Xi was a happy person.
He didnt know if he would ever have this kind of pure happiness again.
She suddenly couldnt bear to see Jing Xi leave. When Jing Xi left and returned to A city, she didnt know when they would meet again.
Feelings were all mutual.
Shuyin couldnt bear to part with Jing Xi. Jing Xi was actually more dependent on her.
When she was at home, no one brought her to y like this. Otherwise, she would not have been so bored that she would cause destruction at any time.
Jing Xi held on to Shu Yins arm and didnt let go. Shu Yin smiled and carried her to the bathroom to give her a bath.
Ever since Jing Xi came to North America, she had been taking a shower by herself.
Although she was only eight years old, she knew the difference between men and women. She was determined not to let her brothers help her bathe. Moreover, her two brothers did not know how to serve people at all, so she might as well bathe herself.
When she took a shower, all she did was apply shower gel and take a shower.
Now that someone could finally help her shower, Jing Xi was very happy!
Jing Rui watched as Shuyin carried Jing Xi into the bathroom. He suddenly felt that it was really important to have a woman at home.
He was really not good at taking care of children, especially Jing Xi, who was very capable of taking care of herself. He would not care too much about her.
He had never paid attention to the things that girls did, such as bathing, changing clothes,bing their hair, and applying moisturizer. This caused Jing Xi to be a little different from her mother when she came here.
It was a wise decision to let Shuyin stay here.
Jing Rui happily went to another bathroom to take a bath. After Jing Xi was stripped naked by Shuyin, she insisted that Shuyin take a bath with her.
Shuyin, on the other hand, was too embarrassed to take off her clothes and shower in front of another person, even if she was a young girl.
Ill wash you first, and Ill do it after youre done. Its not convenient for two people to wash together. Xixi, be good.
Jing Xi pouted.Sister, youve seen me naked. I want to see you too!
Shuyin couldnt help butugh. She poked the little girls nose affectionately.How old are you? were different. Come, take a bath!
Jing Xi pointed at Shu Yins perky chest.Is this ce different?
There were only two small red beans on her chest.
Without Jing Rui, Shuyin was more at ease when the little girl asked her anything. She smiled and said,This ce is different. When you grow up, youll be like me! So, you have to eat well and grow!
Do all men like big-breasted girls?
Shu Yin, who was giving Jing Xi a bath, burst outughing. She patted Jing Xis little butt and said,Who told you this? Youre still so young, you shouldnt pay attention to these things. Youll naturally understand when you grow up!
This is what my second brother said!
The innocent Jing Zhi had been attacked for no reason. He had never told Jing Xi about this!
But Shuyin didnt know that. She felt that Jing Zhinengs actions made her despise him for harming an underage child. She said,Okay, you can y with me in the future. Dont y with your second brother!
Jing Xi was just a little girl, and it would be troublesome if Jing Zhi taught her the wrong way.
What would he do if he kept calling her big-breasted girl?
Jing Zhi, who had been stabbed by his sister, had been busy the whole day. At night, he came to his brothers ce to take a look at the little devil. In the past, the little devil had been pestering him every day, and he had felt like he was about to break down. But today, the little devil had gone to find Shuyin, and no one was pestering him or torturing him. He was actually very unustomed to this. He kept feeling like something was missing in life.
Jing Zhi felt that he must have masochistic tendencies.
When he entered the vi, there was no one in the house.
He listened carefully and heard the sound of water in the bathroom. He finally smiled in satisfaction.
It was good that there was someone at home!
He didnt like to live alone in the vi.
He quickly took off his clothes and walked into the bathroom with only his underwear on.
He guessed that Jing Xi was taking a bath in one bathroom, and his brother was taking a bath in the other. He wanted to take a bath with his brother!
Jing Zhi thought he was smart enough to make a quick judgment. He figured that the bigger bathroom on the first floor was probably used by his brother. He pushed the door open.
The next moment, three ear-piercing screams rang out in the vi,
Argh! Jing Zhi, why are you not wearing any clothes?
Second brother, youre a hooligan!
Why didnt you close the door when you were taking a shower!

Trantor: 549690339
Shuyins face turned red. She turned her head away from Jing Zhi, who was only wearing his underwear, but she was so angry that she was about to stomp her feet.
Fortunately, she didnt agree to take a bath with Jing Xi. Otherwise, Jing Zhi would have seen her naked!
She looked down at herself. Fortunately, although her sweater was stained with water, it did not reveal any ces that should not be exposed. She had only rolled up her sleeves to make it convenient for Jing Xi to bathe.
This person was really crazy, didnt he know to knock before entering the bathroom?
And why did she have to take off her clothes ande in like that!
She didnt expect Jing Zhi to break in. She should have locked the bathroom door.
Jing Xi was covered in white bubbles. Sheughed as she watched Jing Zhi run away.Second brother, youre naked!
Jing Zhi hadnt gone far when he heard the little devils words. He immediately looked down at his lower body.
He was wearing boxer shorts, which part of it was exposed?
Jing Zhi immediately shouted,youre the one whos exposed! Your second brother is wearing underwear! Youre not wearing anything!
Jing Xi sat in the bathtub andughed as she hit the water.
She was a child, so it didnt matter if she was naked. She wasnt a big-breasted girl!
Second brother was indeed very stupid!
Jing Zhi went to the smaller bathroom on the second floor in a Huff. He wanted to push the door open and go in, but the door was locked from the inside.
Dong Dong Dong! He knocked on the door.Big brother, I want to take a shower. Open the door!
Jing Rui, who was taking a shower inside, said,Go to another bathroom!
There were several bathrooms in the vi. Why did she have to share one with him?
Im not going to any other bathroom, I want to shower with you! Didnt we shower together when we were young? Were both men, whats there to be embarrassed about? Dont be so wishy-washy! Open the door, Im cold!
Jing Rui was so angry that he almost fell over.
Two men taking a shower together was such an embarrassing thing, yet Jing Zhi called him shy!
When they were young, he was the one who forced them to take a bath together!
And how could it be the same as now!
Get lost! Go and wash yourself!
You wash it for me!
Im the younger brother and youre the older brother, Jing Zhi said.Shouldnt you be the one to wash me?
Jing Rui took a quick shower, wiped his body, put on his clothes and opened the door of the bathroom.
Haha, big brother, I told you that youre willing to do it with me ... Are you done showering?!
Jing Ruis face darkened. Seeing that he was only wearing underwear, he smacked Jing Zhi on the head.Nonsense! The more you live, the more backward you be!
He finally knew why he had heard the three of them scream.
Jing Zhi mustve dressed like this and gone to their bathroom.
He didnt know if Shuyin had been taken advantage of by Jing Zhi. Jing Rui went downstairs to Jing Xis bathroom and saw Shuyin dressed up and carrying Jing Xi out.
Jing Xi was wrapped in arge bath towel. She immediatelyined when she saw him,Big brother, second brother is a hooligan! He ran into our bathroom without putting on his clothes. Go and hit him!
Jing Zhis hearing was so good that he heard Jing Xisint when he entered the bathroom. He immediately came out and shouted from the second floor,Youre talking nonsense. Im wearing underwear! This isnt called not wearing any clothes, everyone on the beach is wearing this!
The two troublesome siblings had started to bicker again!
Jing Rui ignored them. He only needed to make sure that Shuyin was fine.
He took Jing Xi from Shuyin and said,Go and take a shower. Remember to close the door.
Shuyin didnt say anything, but Jing Zhi was already pissed.
Big brother, what do you mean? Close the door? Are you guarding against me? Tsk, I wouldnt look even if you let me! Whats so good about a bamboo pole? Ive seen many beautiful women, big breasts and thin waists, like Zheng yuluo ...
Jing Zhis voice came to an abrupt end at the mention of Zheng yuluo.
Hmph, he would not tell them how good Zheng yuluos figure was!
This girl had run back to A city without saying a word. He would settle this score with her sooner orter!
Jing Zhi turned around and went into the bathroom to take a shower. Jing Xiughed in her brothers arms.Hahaha, so second brother has always been thinking about sister luoluo! Im going to tell her that shell be my second sister-inw from now on!
She patted Jing Ruis shoulder and said,Brother, you have to work hard! You see, second brother is two years younger than you and he already has a wife. Youre already so old, Im worried if you dont have a woman to take care of you!
Shouldnt his mother, Shangguan ning, be the one to say that? Her mothers lines had been snatched away by the little girl!
Jing Rui rubbed her head.Youre worrying for nothing, thinking about so many things all day long and not growing up! Itste, go to sleep!
Shuyin listened to the conversation between the brother and sister and felt that it was inexplicably funny.
Jing Xi was a smart girl, and Shu Yin could guess what she meant. The little girl was deliberately saying this in front of her.
Did she want her to be her sister-inw?
Jing Rui might not be willing to do so.
Shuyin smiled and shook her head. She turned around and went into the bathroom.
After Shuyin left, Jing Xi pinched her brother hard and said,Brother, why are you so stupid? You should have gone along with my words and asked me if I wanted sister Shuyin to be my sister-inw! Youre so stupid, no wonder you havent been in a rtionship even though youre twenty years old. With your cold and indifferent appearance, which girl would be willing to be with you?
Jing Rui was still calm. He carried his sister to her small bedroom and dried her hair with a towel.
I know what Im doing, dont mess around.
Jing Rui was not someone who fell in love easily. He did like Shuyin, but not to the point where he would die for her.
In the end, the time they had spent together was too short. There was still a long way to go before they could fall in love deeply.
He did fall for Shuyins body, and she could easily make him lose control.
However, the bodys reaction was only an instinct. They were still far from sharing life and death together.
He had all the time in the world, and he wanted to take it slow.
Feelings needed to be cultivated. He hoped that his future family would be stable and full of warmth, just like his parents, supporting each other and loving each other for a lifetime.
Brother, stop drying my hair. Hurry up and wait outside sister Shuyins bathroom. Shell definitely look for youter!
Why? Jing Rui asked, confused.
Because, in order to create an opportunity for you, I took out the two bath towels and the towel inside!
Jing Xi showed her two towels to Jing Rui and then took out two more.Sister definitely doesnt have any towels to use. Hurry up and bring her a towel!

Chapter 1068: The top student, Jing Xi
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui could not help butugh. He pinched his sisters Red cheeks and said,Im afraid shell have to help you count the money if shes sold by you in the future!
No, no, shell only sell it to our family. Well be a family then. Counting money for me is just counting money for her!
Jing Xi pushed her brother away with a smile.Hurry up and go. Its best if you can take a bath with sister Shuyin! After youre done, I might have a little nephew!
Jing Rui walked away helplessly, but he kept sighing in his heart. Little sister, you know too much! Where did he learn all this nonsense!
Jing Rui found two clean towels and a bath towel and went to knock on the bathroom door.
Shuyin heard the knocking and was so shocked that she almost fell!
She thought Jing Zhi was here again.
Who is it?
Its me. You gave the towel to Xixi. What are you going to use for yourself?she asked.
Jing Rui didnt say that Jing Xi had taken the towel away on purpose, but cleverly med it on Shuyin.
Shuyin only realized that there were no more towels in the bathroom after hearing what he said.
She didnt suspect anything because she didnt notice how many towels there were in the bathroom.
But she was really naked at the moment. Even though she was talking to Jing Rui through the door, she could not help but feel her face heat up and her heart turn red.
She hesitated for a moment, but still got out of the bathtub and walked to the door. She opened the door a little and reached out.Give it to me!
Jing Rui looked at her hand and her tender wrist, but did not give her the towel.
He had a strong urge to drag her out of the bathroom and press her onto the bed!
Hurry up and give it to me!
Shuyin stomped her feet angrily in the bathroom. Whats wrong with this person? is he going to rush in?
Although Jing Rui was impulsive, he was still rational. He took a deep breath and handed the bath towel to Shuyin.
The future is long!
If he dragged Shuyin out like this today, she would definitely fight him to the death.
Shuyin took a bath towel and didnt waste a second. She closed the bathroom door with a bang.
But Jing Rui did not care. He turned around calmly and went back to his room to rest.
The next morning, the four of them had breakfast. Jing Rui drove Shuyin and Jing Xi to school.
In the evening, he personally drove the two of them home.
It was the same for many days.
Shuyin brought Jing Xi to ss, and the little girl was surprisingly obedient. Not only did she not blow up the school, but she also took the initiative to study. Of course, most of the time, she would make the professor speechless.
She listened attentively and was exceptionally intelligent. When she was at home, she had actually already finished all the primary and junior high school courses, as well as the high school and university courses. She was also very fluent in English, and she didnt find it difficult at all to attend sses with Shuyin. Instead, she found it very interesting.
She had long had enough of the teachers in school who talked about addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division for a whole month, or shaking their heads and reciting the bright moonlight before the bed is suspected to be frost on the ground. She had learned all these knowledge a long time ago!
Not to mention a genius child like her, even ordinary children would be taught these basic knowledge by their parents before they went to school. Now, they had to learn it over and over again. It would be strange if Jing Xi liked to learn!
She still liked to learn about gic rbination, gic silence, single-strand DNA virus, and double-strand DNA virus. Although she didnt understand some of them, she had an expert in gics and viruses by her side. If she had anything she didnt understand, she could just ask Shuyin!
Shuyins exnations were sometimes more logical and novel than those of the professors.
Many of the questions she asked were from a childs point of view. They were strange, but they were not asked casually, nor were they unreasonable.
Shuyin had never been perfunctory with Jing Xi. She felt that as long as a child asked her about knowledge, she had the obligation to give the most professional and detailed answer.
Of course, Shuyin also had questions that she couldnt answer. At this time, she and Jing Xi would ask the professor for help.
The education system in foreign countries was very different from that in China.
If they were in China, the teachers would only think that Jing Xi was a problematic student who did not pay attention to the ss and only thought about crooked things when she asked a variety of questions.
However, foreign teachers paid great attention to cultivating the creative thinking of students, especially children. They would never impose restrictions on their children and would always guide them to be innovative and to think.
All the professors who taught Shuyin and Jing Xi liked this little girl and were very willing to help her answer her questions.
The old professors were just like Shuyin. They didnt brush Jing Xi off just because she was eight years old. Instead, they thought about it seriously before giving an answer. If the professor himself didnt have an answer, he would tell the young girl honestly. He hadnt studied this problem before, and the young girl had to explore it herself in the future.
Gic inheritance and Bioengineering were huge topics that no one had been able to figure out at the moment. It was normal for professors to be clueless about these topics.
Both Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were surprised to find that the little devil who only knew how to cause trouble had be an obedient girl in just one week!
Every day, he would either be buried in his studies or pester Shuyin to get some bottles and jars with her help.
Brother, did our sister change gender?
Jing Zhi rubbed his eyes and looked at Jing Xi, who was obviously not in a good mood even when she was eating. He felt that he was seeing things.
The little girl used to be the best at making fun of people when they ate, and Jing Zhi was in big trouble because of her.
As he ate the porridge, he would end up with a bunch of cockroaches! After he vomited, Jing Xi took the cockroaches out of his bowl one by one in front of him, put them in her mouth, and chewed them up.
She even cackled at him like a demon about to eat him!
He couldnt stop vomiting! He even had nightmares about being eaten by a cockroach!
It was onlyter that he found out that it was not a cockroach at all, but a little trinket made of caramel!
He loved to eat oranges, but when he bit them open, there would be white and fat worms trying to crawl out! He was so scared that he didnt dare to eat an orange for a few days!
The well-fried steak looked extremely fresh and tender, but one would be able to grind ones teeth off if they bit into it! Upon a closer look, there were coins inside!
Every meal Jing Zhi ate was like an execution. She was so scared that she might identally fall into Jing Xis trap!
However, he had been eating normally for the past few days, and there were no more little witches who were cheated. He was not used to it, so he subconsciously soughtfort from his brother.
Chapter 1069
Chapter 1069: Injured
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui did not expect his sister to change so much.
He had asked her to follow Shuyin so that it would be easier for him to get close to Shuyin. He didnt expect that the little girl had long forgotten about him. She hugged Shuyins arm every day and was hungrily absorbing new knowledge.
Fortunately, Shuyin was also a girl with an extremely high IQ and had studied viruses and gic inheritance for a long time. Otherwise, he really wouldnt be able to resist the little girls crazy thirst for knowledge.
Jing Rui smiled.Dont worry. She wont be quiet for long, and youll have a few good days too. When she gets tired, youll suffer again.
Of course, he didnt believe that his sister had changed gender. The little girls ability to be mischievous was unparalleled. It was just that she had been attracted by new knowledge these days and was temporarily fascinated by it, so she didnt have the time to torture Jing Zhi.
Even Jing Rui had been tricked by his sister, not to mention Jing Zhi.
He had also found a cockroach in his bowl before, but he knew it wasnt real. He ate it without changing his expression, making Jing Xi say boring.
She didnt care whether it was her cousin or her real brother. At most, they would just p her butt a few times as a form of punishment. She had nothing to fear!
Jing Zhi lowered his head weakly. Its fine if I have a genius brother. Youre older than me, so I dont have any psychological pressure even if you crush me. Now, you have a genius sister. Do I still want to live?
He had seen Shuyins books and he knew every word in them, but when they were put together, he had no idea what they were all about!
At that time, he thought that only Shuyin would be able to understand this. He didnt expect to see Jing Xi holding Shuyins book and reading it with great interest these two days!
This was simply looking down on his low IQ!
Jing Zhi had taken a heavy blow. He felt that he shouldnt find a wife like Shuyin in the future. If she was too smart, he would look stupid!
He thought about it carefully. It seemed that Zheng yuluo used to be a top student.
No, no, I cant have a top student!
He still preferred bad girls!
Jing Rui did not know about his brothers pain. He saw that his sister was so diligent and obedient, and he looked at Shuyin with a hint of gentleness in his eyes.
No one in the family could control Jing Xi. She didnt expect Shuyin to get her sister on the right track so easily.
Sure enough, he had good taste and picked a smart and capable woman at once.
Its just that shes only eighteen this year, so its a little too early to marry her!
Jing Rui ate his breakfast elegantly as he thought about how Shuyin would definitely be able to teach the child well when they had a child.
If he could turn a little devil like Jing Xi into a top student, he would not have to worry about educating his child in the future!
Shuyin had felt that Jing Rui was looking at her strangely the whole morning. What was with that look of taking it for granted?
It was the weekend, and Shuyin had chosen molecr gics as an elective. She only had sses in the morning and no sses in the afternoon.
Before she left, Shu Yin reminded Jing Rui out of habit,Remember to pick Xixi and I up at 12 noon. Bring her some cakes and a bottle of water. She gets hungry easily at noon. Oh, Ill buy the blueberry mousse that she likedst time. I want one too.
She wiped Jing Xis lips with a tissue, carried her bag, put a baseball cap on her head, and held her hand as they walked out.
Jing Rui put down the spoon and watched the two of them walk out, but he felt a surge of emotions in his heart.
At this moment, he felt as if he had been living like this with Shuyin for many years.
She looked natural and spoke casually. She loved Jing Xi very much, taking care of her like a mother and apanying her as she grew up.
Jing Zhi watched as his brother went out with Shuyin and muttered,Why do they look like a family of three? Am I a little redundant? Sigh, Im so pitiful. My brother doesnt dote on me, and my sister doesnt love me. Im quite handsome, so why am I all alone?
He had forgotten that he had been avoiding Jing Xi faster than a Tiger!
But now that she was gone, all the food on the table was Jing Zhi s. Without Jing Xis help, he could finally enjoy a good meal.
Jing Rui drove Shuyin and his sister to school while Jing Zhi was busy eating.
It was the weekend, and there were significantly fewer students in the school. Everyone was either out shopping, going on dates, or watching movies. The campus was quiet.
Jing Rui parked the car by the side of the road and sent Shuyin and Jing Xi to the ssroom.
However, as soon as they got out of the car, a red sports car whizzed past them. It was extremely fast and very arrogant.
Shuyin didnt manage to Dodge in time and was almost hit by the car!
Jing Rui quickly pulled her into his arms, but her thigh was still grazed by the sports car.
Ouch! She cried out in pain, her face pale.
Jing Rui had wanted to stop the sports car, but he did not know if Shuyin was seriously injured, so he did not go after her.
He hugged Shuyin, his expression so cold that he almost wanted to kill someone, but his tone was gentle.Shuyin, where did you get hurt? Im not going to ss, Im going to the hospital now!
Shuyins thigh was burning with pain. She let go of her hand, and her white casual pants were already stained with bright red!
Although Jing Xi had seen death and others get hurt, it was the first time that someone close to her had been hurt.
She saw that Shuyin was injured and her heart ached. With tears in her big eyes, she said in a sobbing tone,Brother, that person hurt my sister! Dont let him off! Lets go to the hospital and take a look at sisters injury!
Shuyins pain tolerance was much stronger than the average person s. Although her face was pale, she still smiled at Jing Xi and said,Xixi, Im fine. Dont worry, its just a small injury. That person didnt just hit me, he also hit other students. Hell definitely be punished.
It wasnt Shuyins first time seeing that sports car. That person often barged into school, but nothing major had ever happened, so he was always unscrupulous.
With such a way of driving, she would get herself killed one day.
Of course, Shuyin was also furious. She wanted to grab the driver and break two of his ribs!
But she had already run away. She didnt want to cause any trouble for Jing Rui, and she didnt want to teach Jing Xi to be too violent and bloody.
He will be punished! Lets go to the hospital first. Ill get someone to deal with him.
Jing Rui said coldly. He picked up Shuyin, took two steps and put her back into the car.
Jing Xi quickly followed and got into the car. She looked up and asked if Shuyin was okay.
Jing Rui drove to the hospital, his heart burning with anger.
It was supposed to be a beautiful day, but it waspletely ruined by a speeding person on campus!
Jing Rui couldnt tolerate Shuyins injury.
With his strength, he didnt need to endure at all!
Someone was going to be unlucky!
Chapter 1070
Chapter 1070: Where are you touching?
Trantor: 549690339
Both Jing Rui and Jing Xi insisted on sending Shuyin to the hospital, but Shuyin refused.
Theres no need to go to the hospital. Im half a doctor myself. Its just a scratch. It looks a little scary, but its not a big problem. I can handle it myself.
Shuyin was wearing white pants today, and there was already a red patch on her thigh. It was a shocking sight.
However, the biggest reason why she didnt want to go to the hospital was that if she went to the hospital to apply medicine and bandage, she would have to take off her pants. At the most conservative, she would have to cut off one leg of her pants to reveal her entire leg.
Most of the surgeons in the hospital were male, and Shu Yin felt that she would be in an awkward position.
She didnt have any psychological barriers when it came to treating other peoples wounds, but if she was asked to take off her clothes in front of others, she would feel too awkward. Not to mention male doctors, even female doctors couldnt do it.
Jing Xi was still young, so she did not understand Shuyins concerns, but Jing Rui immediately understood when he saw Shuyins expression.
He didnt expect Shuyin to be so conservative even though she was a doctor!
He didnt like to be touched, and he didnt like to be seen.
In the end, Jing Rui listened to Shuyins suggestion and drove home, leaving Shuyin to tend to her wound.
If she felt ufortable, she could go to the hospital again.
Jing Rui drove the car directly into the vi and stopped in front of the door. Then he carried Shuyin out of the car and walked into the vi.
Shuyin was a little embarrassed to be carried horizontally in front of Jing Xi. She said softly,I can walk on my own, put me down.
Jing Rui looked at her and said nothing. He carried her and walked straight into the house, with no intention of letting go.
Sister, you dont have to be so polite with my brother, Jing Xi said immediately.Were a family! Youre injured, and hes not a man if hes letting you walk on your own!
Who would say that about their own brother!
In order to make her feel at ease, the little girl even ridiculed her brother.
Shuyin smiled at Jing Xi and did not reject him anymore. She had been hugged by Jing Rui many times, and she did not reject him as much as before.
It was not the first time that Jing Rui had held Shuyin, but every time he did, the soft touch made him feel nostalgic.
It turned out that a girls body was so soft and bouncy. It was so beautiful that one would want to sink into it and nevere out.
After sending Shuyin to her room, Jing Rui went to get the first aid kit.
Jing Xi was watching over Shu Yin. Seeing her pale face, she couldnt help but kiss her on the cheek.Sister, it wont hurt anymore if I kiss you. When I was feeling unwell in the past, my mother would kiss me and I would be fine. Ill give you a kiss too.
The little girls lips were soft and tender, and they had the milk fragrance of the morning milk. Shuyins heart was filled with warmth. She turned her head and kissed Jing Xis little face. She endured the pain and smiled at her.
Xixis kiss was very effective. Im not in pain anymore. You can go and y!
Shuyin was worried that if her leg really was a bloody mess, it would scare Jing Xi again, so she drove her away.
But Jing Xi refused to leave. She wanted to help.
Jing Rui came in with the first aid kit and handed it to Shuyin. Then he carried Jing Xi out without a word.
You cant help, so you can y outside.
Jing Rui put his sister on the sofa in the living room and went into Shuyins room alone.
Jing Xis eyes darted around. She thought for a while andughed to herself. She didnt enter Shu Yins room again.
Isnt this a good opportunity to improve our rtionship?
Aiya, she was so stupid. She was so focused on Shuyins injury that she forgot about being the third wheel!
Jing Zhi had been out for a while. When he came back, he smelled a faint scent of blood in the air. He was very sensitive to the smell of blood, so he was immediately on alert.
Then, he saw Jing Xi lying on the sofa, reading a thick book.
Xixi, why did youe back? Are you hurt?
If there was nothing important, Jing Xi would definitely go to ss. She had recently been fascinated by gic research and was even more active in ss than Shuyin.
Jing Xi looked up.Second brother, Im not the one whos injured. Sister Shuyin is injured! Someone was driving a sports car in school and hit my sister!
Ah? Whos so blind!
Jing Zhi was used to being a tyrant in North America. He was always the one bullying others, and no one had ever dared to provoke him.
He treated Shuyin as one of his own, and he was very angry that Shuyin was hurt.
Jing Zhi turned around and walked towards Shuyins room. He wanted to see how badly she was injured.
Jing Xi immediately jumped down from the sofa, grabbed his clothes, and whispered,Dont go in. Didnt you see that I was chased out by my brother? If you go in, big brother might just throw you out of the vis window!
Jing Zhi pped his thigh and said,yeah! Im not going! Who knows, maybe our brother will be able to take her down this time!
The brother and sister thought too highly of themselves, but in fact, Shuyin refused to let Jing Rui help her with her wound.
Get out, Im going to change my clothes!
Since you cut my clothes and treated my wounds, I can help you change.
Jing Rui stood in front of Shuyins bed, unmoving. Shuyin had seen his whole body, so he should look back at her.
Youd better not dawdle. If you dont treat your wound quickly, itll get more and more serious. It might even leave a scar in the future.
There was no way Shuyin could take off her pants in front of Jing Rui!
Her leg was getting more and more painful, and the blood stain on her pants was getting bigger and bigger. She was a little anxious.Get Lisa toe in and help me. Dont you know that there are differences between men and women?
Now you know that there are differences between men and women? When you stripped me naked, why didnt you remember the difference between men and women?
Shuyin red at him,who stripped you naked? I had to cut off your clothes to treat your burn. Besides, Im a doctor. Its normal for me to bandage your wound. Hurry up and get out, are you only satisfied when Im bleeding out?
Men were usually not good at quarreling. Shuyin was a sharp-tongued girl, while Jing Rui was the kind of person who did not like to talk much.
He simply picked up the scissors and pressed Shuyin down on the bed. Then, he started to cut her pants.
This feeling was terrible. She had the fear of being stripped naked. Shu Yin screamed and struggled,Jing, youre a hooligan! Let me go!
Jing Rui ignored her and continued to hold her down with one hand and cut her pants with the other.
Where are you touching? Shuyin still screamed. Quickly let go!
Dont move! Dont me me for not being good when I cut your meatter!
Chapter 1071
Chapter 1071: Trapped in your gentleness
Trantor: 549690339
Shu Yin stopped moving, but she still said angrily,Let go of this hand, youre pressing on my chest!
Jing Ruis attention was on her wound, for fear that he would identally hurt Shuyin. He only realized that he had pressed the wrong ce after hearing her words. No wonder it was so soft.
The little woman looked slender, but she was actually so full!
The ces that should be thin were thin, and the ces that should be fat were fat. Yes, very good!
Jing Rui let go of her without any expression and said,Im sorry, your chest is too small. I cant feel it.
Shuyin was so angry that she almost vomited blood!
After being taken advantage of by him, she still had to be insulted by him. There was really no justice in this world!
She was so angry that she stared at Jing Rui and said loudly,Which part of me is small? Im much older than you!
Well, youre really good. Yourepeting with me on the size of a mans chest. Fine, you win!
Shuyin was almost angered to death by him. She couldnt take it anymore and pulled his hand over her chest, biting down hard.
Hiss!
Jing Rui gasped in pain and frowned.Are you a dog? I was kind enough to help you treat your wound, and you bit me?
Shuyin thought to herself, I dont need your help to deal with it. You deliberately took advantage of me and evenughed at my small chest!
She let go and barked at Jing Rui angrily. Then she lowered her head and bit Jing Ruis hand again.
Jing Ruiughed at once. This little woman was actually barking like a dog. How cute!
It was as if every time he touched her body, she would lose all her rationality,pletely different from her usual calm andposed self.
Could it be that her body was her Achilles heel?
When someone touched her, she would be flustered and impulsive because she was too sensitive?
If that was the case, then things would be easy!
He put down the scissors with his other hand and pinched her chin.Let go. Stop biting. If you bleed, youll die.
His star-like eyes were full of smiles, and his voice revealed a faint gentleness that had never been there before.
Even when he pinched her chin, he didnt use much strength and was gentle.
Shuyin was very used to Jing Ruis indifference and could calmly make the right response.
However, what she could not resist the most was this kind of gentle attack.
Her chin was being pinched by him, and she could even feel the heat from his fingers!
Her face was reflected in his dark eyes, as if she had already integrated into his life!
Shuyins defenses were instantly broken, and she fell into his gentle gaze, unable to extricate herself.
She looked at the extremely handsome face in front of her in a daze. She couldnt help but listen to his words and loosen her teeth.
She wasnt afraid of being infected by his virus, but she was afraid that she would really bite him.
Seeing Shuyin so obedient, Jing Ruis smile deepened. He pointed at her forehead and said,Lie down properly. Dont make any more noise. Youre really going to bleed out in a while.
Shuyin seemed to have been bewitched. Shey down obediently and watched him cut open her long pants with a pair of scissors, cutting off the part below her thighs.
Outside the room, Jing Zhi and Jing Xi were leaning against the door, eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.
The brother and sisters four eyes were shining!
Yo, I didnt know that brother was so good at teasing girls!
He touched a ce that he shouldnt have touched, yet he was still so confident!
Jing Zhi and Jing Xiughed to themselves. When they heard no more movement inside, the two of them sneaked out.
Jing Zhi carried his sister on his shoulder and led her out of the vi.The two of us are like high-watt light bulbs now. So, Ive decided to take you to my house! So as not to ruin our big brothers good thing!
Jing Xi sat on her second brothers shoulder and ate a lollipop, feeling very proud.
Alright, Ill listen to you this time! Since second uncle and second aunt arent home, Ill just go to your house and harm you alone!
No! Youre not allowed to mess around anymore. If you do, Ill throw you into a killer organization!
Jing Xi wasnt scared at all. She knew that Jing Zhi was just trying to scare her.
She grabbed Jing Zhis hair with a smile and said, Its okay to join an assassin organization. You and brother have been there before, so I can also go in and train! However, before I go in, Ill definitely make arrangements for the rest of my sister luoluos life. Ill find her a handsome and considerate brother-inw! Shell definitely like it!
She wouldnt dare! Jing Zhi red.
Yi, second brother, you like big sister luoluo?
Nonsense! Shes ugly and her heart is ck. Who would like her?
If you dont like her, why do you care if others like her?
I ... I was a hero! Its enough for me to suffer losses alone, I cant let other innocent men suffer losses!
This wasnt how the phrase acting bravely for a just cause should be used, right?
Second brothers skin was really thick!
Jing Xi held Jing Zhis head and chuckled.Second brother, if you like her, then go and confess! Why are you even more childish than me? you always like to bully others! I heard that sister Weiwei is trying to find a boyfriend for sister luoluo. If you dont be more proactive, sister luoluo will be taken away by other wolves!
Jing Zhi felt that the little devil was teasing him again. He snorted. Youve been in North America all this time, how did you know about the news in A city? Theres a Wolf thats so hungry that it can even go down to her, what does it have to do with me!
I video chat with my mom every day, so of course I know what happened there! Mom told me this. If you dont believe me, you can ask her! I think sister luoluo is very pretty and nice. Its normal for people to like her! You dont like her?
Woof! Your second brothers standards are that low?
But I heard that youve already had sex with sister luoluo! Sigh, a fresh flower is stuck in cow dung!
Jing Xi said as she put the stic lollipop she had eaten into Jing Zhis head.
Jing Zhi stumbled and almost threw Jing Xi out of the room.
The younger sister knows too much, shes forcing the older brother to his death!
Who did you hear that from again? Jing Zhi asked through gritted teeth.
Second uncle, second uncle also told me to be a spy for him and monitor you and sister luoluo. He said that sister luoluo is not suitable to marry you, so once the two of you have any intimate contact, I have to report it to him. Then, I can get a huge bonus!
Jing Zhis forehead was full of sweat. Was it really a good idea to sell out your second uncle just like that?
I didnt say I wanted to marry her, your second uncle is overthinking! But, are you nning to be a double spy?
Jing Zhi had never thought of marrying Zheng yuluo. He was in a dilemma now, and his new and old hatred for Zheng yuluo had not dissipated. Until now, he still had no trust in Zheng yuluo.
He felt that he had to try a new rtionship.
Perhaps, he was only interested in Zheng yuluo for a while.

Jing Rui knew that Jing Zhi had left with his sister, but he did not stop him. He focused on cleaning Shuyins wound.
The legs of her long pants were cut off, revealing Shu Yins fair, delicate, strong, and slender thighs.
In the room, the ambiguity of the situation rose sharply!
Her thighs were stained with blood, and the bright red color formed a strong and sharp contrast with her white and wless skin, which gave Jing Rui a strong visual impact.
His gaze was so intense that Shu Yin was already embarrassed to begin with, and now her ears were red from embarrassment.
Fortunately, Jing Rui was still worried about her wound. He quickly stopped thinking and used a pair of tweezers to clean the blood for Shuyin.
The cotton ball was soaked in alcohol, and Shu Yin groaned in pain when it touched her wound.
The blush on her face quickly receded, and in just a few seconds, she was back to her previous paleness.
Does it hurt?
Its fine. I can endure it. Just do what you want.
Shuyins face was pale, but her voice was calm. She could really endure this kind of pain.
Give me an anesthetic! I still have two at home, it should be enough.
She was so good at enduring that Jing Ruis heart ached.
Girls were usually afraid of pain, but she was so injured, yet she didnt make a sound, not even a tear.
So silly, why are you so strong-willed?
Shouldnt she be crying out in pain and pouncing into his arms to seekfort and pity?
Shuyin shook her head gently.A small dose of anesthetic wont work on me. Only a strong anesthetic will work, but theres no need for that. Just do it. If you cant hold it in, Ill tell you.
Jing Rui was slightly startled. The anesthetic did not work on her?
Was it because he had used too much of it in the past, so his body had developed a resistance to it?
Or could it be that the virus in her body had increased her resistance?
No matter what the reason was, it was enough to prove that Shuyin had experienced pain that ordinary people could not imagine.
Jing Ruis heart ached a little, but he did not ask any further. Everyone had their own secrets, Shuyin and him.
Therefore, he would not get to the bottom of it.
He tried to be as gentle as possible and cleaned Shuyins wound nimbly. He disinfected it, applied medicine, and bandaged it.
Jing Ruis fingers inevitably touched Shuyins skin during the bandaging process.
The strange feeling of skin touching made Shuyin feel like her pain had been reduced by half!
At first, Jing Rui was focused on treating her wound, butter, his eyes were attracted by her thigh and his fingers were touching her soft skin.
She had the best skin and the fairest skin Jing Rui had ever seen.
Even many white people in North America were not as fair as her.
Was it because she had spent the past ten years in the Virus Research Institute, wrapped herself up tightly, and had never been exposed to the sun?
What did she usually eat to make her skin so fair and wless?
Jing Rui had been obsessed with her slender hands, and then fell in love with her lovely feet. Now he saw her legs and realized that they were the most beautiful.
He didnt want to let go. What should he do?
However, no matter how slow his movements were, the wound would eventually be treated.
He closed his eyes and finally pulled the thin nket over her, covering her beauty.
He thought that in the future, only he could look at his legs. No one else was allowed to look at them!
Jing Rui was worried that there would be a scar on her leg, so he told her,Dont move around for the next few days and youre not allowed to shower either. You have to apply some ointment every day. If theres not enough ointment, Ill get Peter to deliver some to you.
He rarely spoke such nonsense to others. Shuyin was a doctor herself, and she knew better than him how to protect her wounds.
However, he still said it.
He was afraid that Shuyin would be disobedient and not take her body seriously.
Shuyin didnt take it seriously, but it wasnt that she didnt care about her own health. She just felt that these were just small injuries and werent worth treating so seriously.
Thank you, Im fine, she said with a smile.
Although she was embarrassed, she was very grateful that Jing Rui had helped her with her wound.
She didnt want the doctor to look at her leg, but she didnt mind it when Jing Rui looked at it. She was just a little embarrassed.
Jing Rui nodded slightly, packed up the medicine box and left.
Her fair and slender legs were exposed, which was extremely tempting to him.
Jing Rui was afraid that he would not want toe out if he stayed inside.
He went to the bathroom to wash his hands and face with cold water. Then, he returned to the study and called Han Feng.
Did you find out who it was?
He had hurt Shuyin and made her suffer so much. Jing Rui felt cold inside.
Boss, we found out that the driver is an ordinary student. Hes usually very arrogant, but his parents are from the Virus Research Institute! Theyre all missing, and theyre on our missing person list!
The Virus Research Institute?
Jing Rui suddenly realized that the other partys original intention was not to hurt Shuyin, but to kill her!
However, if the other party was really just an ordinary student, he would definitely not dare to do so.
He had killed someone in school while racing, and he couldnt escape after that. So many people were watching. If he didnt have a strong enough background, he would definitely be sentenced to jail.
Keep an eye on him, dont let him die yet, find out whos behind him.
Yes!
Also, get ready. Well be returning soon!
Alright!
There were still many things for Jing Rui to deal with in A city, and he needed to take over Jingsheng enterprise. He could not stay in North America any longer.
Of course, Jing Xi and Shuyin couldnt stay in North America either. It wasnt safe here. He could only be at ease if he had the two of them by his side.
It was bright and sunny outside, but the light in the room was dim, and one could only vaguely see theyout inside.
Zishans entire body and face were wrapped in bandages, only revealing his eyes. He stared at the person opposite him.
Liao Wei, youre really bold! How dare you order my people to kill Shuyin! Do you think that I wont be able to kill you in this state?
Liao Wei looked at Zishan, who was wrapped up like a dried corpse, and felt extremely happy!
He satfortably on the sofa and said with a smile,Youve misunderstood. I just wanted to teach her a lesson. She caused you to be in this state, and I couldnt stand it, so I wanted to stand up for you. Shes an important chess piece to you, why would I kill her?
Zishan still had her doubts, but she could not determine if Liao Wei really wanted to kill Shuyin. She felt that Liao Wei did not have the guts to kill someone behind her back.
Liao Wei sneered in his heart, he was going against Zishan!
Didnt she want to make use of Shuyin?
He had to kill that chess piece!
Its a pity that the one called Shuyin, such a beautiful woman, is about to die!

Because of the virus, the purple firs body still couldnt see the light. Every time it was exposed to the sun, its skin would shed and crack.
Although Liao Wei was also infected with the virus, he had very little virus in his body and his body was very special. His bodys ability to resist the virus was much stronger than Zishan s.
Thus, Liao Wei quickly recovered and used Zishans power to seek benefits for himself.
Zishan had given Liao Wei some power and made him work for her. Of course, she knew about Liao Weis little tricks in private, but she had basically turned a blind eye to them. Liao Wei was not worth her time and effort to deal with, but this person could not be killed either. It was best to let him live.
As long as he was alive, Jing Rui would be distracted to find and kill him.
It was not a bad idea to use Liao Wei as bait.
However, Zishan had kept the matter of Liao Weis disfigurement a secret from Jing Rui, or Liao Wei would be useless.
What Zishan did not know was that Jing Rui was no longer bothered by Liao Weis threat.
As long as he returned to the Jing family and took control of the resources and power of the Jing family, even if Liao Wei had the same face as him, he would not be able to mobilize anyone or take a single cent without the relevant secret orders.
Shuyin had been recuperating at Jing Ruis ce for three days and could move freely now. Although her wound had not fully recovered, she could go to school now.
However, she had only attended one day of lessons because after she fell asleep at night, she found herself in a helicopter the next day when she woke up!
Luckily, she saw Jing Rui, who was busy with hisptop, when she looked up. Otherwise, she would have thought that she had been taken away.
Where are we going?
Jing Rui stopped what he was doing and said calmly,Back to A city.
What?
This decision was too rash!
When did I agree to go back to A city with you?
I dont need your promise. Ill decide on my own, you dont have the right to choose.
Shuyin was so angry that sheughed!
Im your essory? You should at least respect my human rights, right?
Shuyin got up from the bed. She was a little indignant, but also a little helpless.
Jing Rui was used to being domineering, and it was not the first day she had known him. She knew him well, and he was a man of his word.
She no longer had the heart to resist.
He wanted to arrange her life and make decisions for her. Shuyin used to reject him, but now, she trusted him.
So when she woke up and saw her in the helicopter, she was not angry. She was just a little depressed that Jing Rui did not tell her about such a big thing.
Jing Rui had already prepared himself for Shuyins anger. He looked calm, but he was actually afraid that Shuyin would get angry.
So, he had arranged for Jing Xi and Jing Zhi to board another helicopter. This way, if Shuyin got angry, he could go and coax her without any worries.
The love guide said that men should know how to bow down to women first. Even if the woman was wrong, the man should admit his mistake first.
Girls were very easy to coax. Their hearts were soft, and they admitted their mistakes with a good attitude. As long as it was not a big problem in principle, the small things would pass quickly and would not affect the rtionship between the two.
Jing Rui had never admitted his mistake in his life. The only person he had admitted his mistake to was Shuyin.
But she wasnt angry today, which didnt make sense!
Why arent you angry?
Im angry, why not? I dont even have the basic human rights. My personal freedom is being controlled by you, of course Im angry!
Although Shuyin said she was angry, she didnt look angry at all. She even took a bottle of water, unscrewed the cap, and drank it slowly.
Jing Rui looked at Shuyin drinking the water and said calmly,Ive already drunk that bottle of water. Yours is the other bottle.
Shuyin didnt know whether to spit out or swallow the water she had drunk!
This person was really annoying!
Why didnt you tell her earlier!
Or, he could just pretend that he didnt know anything and not say anything!
Wasnt this equivalent to an indirect kiss?
Shuyin red at Jing Rui, but swallowed the water in the end. There was no point in spitting it out now!
She put the cap back on and threw the bottle at Jing Rui angrily. Jing Rui caught the bottle easily.
Shuyin patted her head. How could she have forgotten that Jing Rui was so good at fighting that it was a piece of cake for him to get a bottle of water?
She picked up another bottle of water, unscrewed the cap and took a sip. Then, she saw Jing Rui drinking the same bottle of water that she had just drunk.
Shuyins eyes widened. Was he crazy?
Wasnt he a clean freak? Didnt you forbid anyone from touching it? Why did he drink the water that she had drunk?
Wouldnt it be too ambiguous if they were like this?
However, looking at Jing Ruis cold expression, Shuyin felt that she might have been overthinking it.
She reached out and patted her face gently, trying to wake herself up.
It was just a drink of water, and there was no need to be so particr about it. Maybe Jing Rui did not care about it at all, and she was the only one who was being calctive.
Shuyin wasforting herself when Jing Rui asked,Why does the mineral water you drank have a fragrance? Did you put on perfumest night?
Shuyins body stiffened, and she almost spat out the water in her mouth!
She had always thought that Jing Rui was very cold and not a hooligan who liked to take advantage of girls. But why did she feel that he was so bad now?
She had never used perfume. No one in the Virus Research Institute was allowed to use perfume, not even cosmetics. Jing Rui had always known that he had asked her this on purpose.
If Jing Zhi had asked something so flirtatious, Shuyin wouldnt have thought it was a problem. She wouldnt even have responded to Jing Zhi.
But when Jing Rui, who was as cold as ice, asked such a question, she felt that it was very strange.
Yeah, Shuyin said through gritted teeth.I sprayed the entire bottle of perfume on my mouth!
Jing Rui looked at her quietly, with a faint smile.
She had just gotten out of bed, and her ck hair was hanging on her shoulders. It was slightly messy, but there was a kind ofzy beauty to it.
Because of her injured thigh, she wore a nightdress to sleep, revealing her delicate corbones and slender calves.
Most importantly, from Jing Ruis angle, he could clearly see that Shuyin was not wearing any undergarments, and her two little white bunnies were shaking slightly because of the helicopters slight bump.
She had no idea how beautiful she was, nor did she know that her seduction towards a man was fatal.

Chapter 1074: Stretch out your legs
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui felt that it was a wise decision to throw Jing Zhi and Jing Xi into another helicopter.
He was the only one who could look at Shuyin like this. Jing Xi and Jing Zhi couldn t.
Girls were sensitive to mens gazes, especially when the man in front of her didnt avoid her gaze at all and stared straight at her chest!
Shuyins face turned red and she covered herself with the nket. She threw the water at Jing Rui. Dont look!
Jing Rui caught the water easily and smiled.Youre only a little older than me. Whats there to look at? even Jing Zhi is older than you!
Jing Zhi had well-developed chest muscles and he looked like he had a lot of weight.
But how could she bepared to Jing Zhi?
And he even said that she was not as old as Jing Zhi.
Shuyin was so angry that her nose was almost crooked. She almost took off her clothes to let Jing Rui see whose was bigger!
Shuyin, calm down, calm down!
I cant be fooled!
Under the cover of the nket, she couldnt help but touch the two soft balls under her pajamas.
She was a little dejected. Was it really that small?
She felt that it was alright!
Did Jing Rui like something as big as a ser ball?
Hmph! None of these men were good!
She had thought that Jing Rui was a good man. At least he was not tempted by women.
It seemed that it was not that he had a strong self-control, but that he liked to be rough. He liked the big-bobbed girls that Jing Xi had mentioned!
Almost all football-sized breasts were grown. How many naturally grown ones could there be?
What a weird taste!
Shuyin covered herself up tightly, unwilling to let a certain heavy-taste man take any more advantage of her.
Jing Rui felt a warm current flowing through his limbs and bones to his lower body, waking up a certain part of him.
He twisted open the bottle of water that Shuyin had just thrown at him and gulped it down. He only felt the heat dissipate a little after he finished the entire bottle.
When Shuyin saw him drinking the water she had drunk, she immediately regretted throwing the water at him.
However, she suddenly thought of a problem!
How did I get on the helicopter?
I carried you up here.
He carried her up?
Shuyin had the urge to bite someone!
Then wouldnt she be taken advantage of by him?
Then why dont I feel anything at all?
Yes, you slept like a pig. Its normal to not feel anything.
This was impossible!
Shuyins own alertness was pretty good. It was impossible for her to be carried out of bed and into the helicopter without her knowing!
She had never slept so soundly before!
Did you drug me?
Oh, youve guessed it,
Shu Yin could not take it anymore and threw the pillow at Jing Rui.
He actually admitted it!
Did he see that even if she knew, she would be helpless!
Jing Rui caught the pillow and found it interesting to see her red face.
There was finally a small wave in his peaceful life.
Y-y-you ... Did you take advantage of me?!
Shuyin was so angry that she couldnt even speak properly!
If Jing Rui had really sold her out, she would not have known about it.
This man is too dangerous. I must not sleep in his house in the future!
Jing Rui teased her.Of course. I will not let go of such a good opportunity. I will take it that you are paying rent at my house. Didnt you notice that your pajamas arent the one you wore thest time? Ive changed your clothes.
Ah?
Shuyin quickly looked down at her pajamas. Her mind was a little muddled. She couldnt remember which pajamas she had wornst night!
Her nightgowns were almost the same, and she changed into one randomly every day. She didnt notice whether she was wearing dark gray or light grayst night!
She was wearing a light gray shirt now. Could it be that she was wearing a dark gray shirtst night?
Jing Rui found it funny when he saw Shuyins face turn red and white.
He had thought that she was a particrly smart person, but it turned out that she was so confused!
Last night, he had wrapped her in a nket and carried her directly to the helicopter. He didnt want to touch her while she was unconscious.
If he wanted to touch her, of course, it would be best when she was awake. Otherwise, what fun would that be?
As for her pajamas, he had never helped her change into them. She could only me herself for trusting Him too much. She believed everything he said. What a silly girl.
Jing Rui got up, walked to Shuyin and sat down on the bed.
What are you doing? Get away from me!
Shuyin tried her best to retreat, but any further and she would be in the cabin. She couldnt possibly jump down from the window!
What was he doing?
He had deliberately put her on the ne and made her cry for help, then ...
Jing Rui knocked on Shuyins forehead with his finger helplessly.Dont think too much. Do I look like a bad person?
Youre not a good person to begin with,Shuyin nodded.
I want to see if your leg is better. Stretch it out.
Shuyin didnt move and wrapped herself up like a cocoon.I dont believe you!
Ever since Shuyin got injured and Jing Rui bandaged her wound, she refused to let him help her again. So he had no idea how Shuyins leg was recovering.
Usually, at home, it was Jing Xi who was by Shuyins side. Jing Rui did not want to let his sister go to check on Shuyins leg, so he had waited until today to have a chance to see how she was recovering.
If you dont take the initiative to stretch out your leg, Ill put my hand in. Of course, Im not sure where I can touch. Alright, Ill give you five seconds. Pick one.
Im not choosing any of them!
No problem. Ill throw the nket and the person off the helicopter!
Jing Rui picked Shuyin up and walked towards the cabin door.
Hanfeng, open the cabin door. Miss Shu wants to get off the ne.
Han Fengs crisp voice came from the cockpit.Boss, received! Get ready to open the door! Five, four, three ...
Argh! Don t, don t, don t! Dont open the door!
Shuyin was scared out of her wits!
She wrapped her arms around Jing Ruis neck, fearing that he would really throw her down.
Do you want to stretch your legs?
Yes! Shuyin immediately gave in without any backbone.Stretch! Stretch!
Isnt it just a leg? if he likes to look, then let him look!
His life was still more important!
Say youre wrong!
I was wrong, I was wrong! Boss, its all my fault. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time! You can look at whichever leg you want to!
Yes.
Jing Rui was finally satisfied.Hanfeng, dont open the door. Keep flying! He said.
Boss, received!
Han Feng was speechless. When did boss be so childish? He actually dared to scare an 18-year-old girl!
Fortunately, he didnt listen to his boss and opened the cabin door directly. Otherwise, if Shuyin fell down, he wouldnt be able to pay for it even with ten lives!
There was a risk in choosing a boss, so he had to be careful when opening the door!

Jing Rui was very satisfied with Han Fengs reaction. His subordinate was getting more and more perceptive. She was always able to quickly understand his true meaning.
Not bad, at least he didnt pick the wrong person. He could consider giving him a raise.
Jing Rui carried Shuyin back to the bed, put her down, and lifted her nket.
Shu Yin didnt move and allowed him to do whatever he wanted.
Her nightdress was lifted up by Jing Rui and stuck to her thigh, almost revealing her underwear.
Shuyin finally came back to her senses. She was so embarrassed and angry that she wanted to kill him with a bottle of virus!
She had never let a man look at her legs before!
This was great, she had lost her innocence!
But she couldnt get angry or evenin. Otherwise, a certain cold guy would throw her off the helicopter again!
She was almost scared to death just now!
This was very terrifying, alright?
What if the cold wind opened the cabin door and she really fell down? From such a high height, she would have been smashed into a pulp! There was no chance of survival at all!
As expected, it was better to control ones own fate!
She would be an idiot if she ever believed Jing Rui again.
Unfortunately, it didnt take long for Shuyin to waver.
Jing Rui did not take advantage of her at all. He cut the gauze on her leg carefully and reapplied the medicine and bandage for her. It seemed that he was worried about her injury, not just to see her leg.
Shuyin was a little ashamed. Why did she always think of Jing Rui as such a bad person?
Jing Rui was not a lecherous man. He was so cold and outstanding that he could have any woman he wanted.
Before Shuyin could finish feeling ashamed, Jing Rui said,Hmm, not bad. Your legs are beautiful and they feel good to the touch.
Shu Yins shame instantly disappeared!
Jing, youre shameless! Throw me down if you can!
Youre not happy when I praise you? I saw that you were very unhappy when I said that your chest was small, so I went against my heart and praised you a little just now, in case you feel so inferior that you want tomit suicide. Since you dont want to listen, then I take back my words.
Shuyin didnt want tomit suicide right now. She wanted to kill someone!
She had never seen such a vicious tongue and two-faced person!
If she wanted to live by Jing Ruis side, she had to have a heart made of diamond!
He wondered how Han Feng could live for so long!
Shuyin felt that if she stayed with Jing Rui for a few more days, she would die of anger!
In the future, dont wear short skirts. Its best to wear pants. Its not good to show your legs, its easy to cause a disaster.
It was enough for him to see it alone. No one else was allowed to see it!
Jing Rui was in a good mood, but Shuyin was in a terrible mood.
Which part of her legs did not look good?
Her legs were so well-proportioned, not too fat or too thin, and they were quite white. What beautiful legs! Even the little girl, Jing Xi, thought that her legs were beautiful!
What kind of aesthetic taste does this person have!
Did he like muscr legs?
Shuyin couldnt help but shiver!
She liked football-shaped breasts, muscr legs, dark skin, and loved to admit her mistakes ...
Oh my God! He liked aliens!
Shuyin stared at Jing Rui with a strange expression. God had given him an outstanding IQ and a perfect face, why didnt he have a normal sense of beauty?
Youre staring at me like this because Im too handsome?
This person was especially narcissistic!
Shuyin despised him in her heart, but she tried to smile as gently as she could.Yes, yes, yes, youre very handsome!
She could tell that this person liked others to go along with him!
Those who submit to him will prosper, and those who resist him will perish!
In order to prevent him from finding out that she was being perfunctory, Shuyin quickly changed the topic.Wheres Xixi? Shes not going back to A city with you?
You want her to go back?
Of course!
Be good and listen to her, and she can go back.
What does this have to do with me? Shu Yin was stunned.
Jing Xi is your sister, not mine, okay?
As an older brother, shouldnt you bring your sister back to A city and let her throw herself into her mothers arms?
She likes to stir up trouble, and so do you. And youve taught her to stir up trouble even more. Thats why she can only go home if youre obedient.
What kind of logic is this!
Shuyin was so angry that she wanted to jump off the ne!
Youre really leaving Xixi in North America?
Yes.
Youre not letting her go home?
Yes.
Did she make you angry?
Yes.
Theres no such thing as an overnight grudge between biological siblings. Hurry up and send someone to pick Xixi up. North America isnt safe. We cant leave her there alone!
It turned out that she also knew that North America was not safe!
Then why did he insist on staying in North America?
If he hadnt acted first and reportedter, Shuyin might not have been willing to leave North America with him!
Jing Rui looked at her and said,yes.
Shuyin couldnt help but pull on his arm.Dont just say yes. Lets go back and get Xixi!
Jing Rui looked at Shuyins hand.
Her hand grabbed his arm. It was slender, white, soft, and warm, giving him a beautiful touch and visual enjoyment.
Very good, there were no scars left on her hand. It was still beautiful and perfect!
Thatll depend on your performance when we get to A city,he said indifferently.
Shuyin didnt care why she had to perform well before Jing Xi could return to the country. She really wanted Jing Xi to return to city A. She frowned and asked,How do I need to perform?
Dont cause trouble, dont attract bees and butterflies, thats enough.
When did I attract bees and butterflies?
Shuyin felt very wronged. She had been studying and doing research all this time. She didnt even have any friends, let alone a rtionship. Where could she go to attract bees and butterflies?
Alright, well talk about this problem when the timees. Ill help you correct them. Ill help you get a special admission spot for University of X, and you can study there directly. University of X has some good instructors who should be of help to you.
When it came to serious matters, Shuyin kept all her thoughts and listened quietly.
It hasnt been peaceful recently. You can study at university of X for the time being. After Ive dealt with all the loose ends, you can transfer to another school or go to any university abroad as an exchange student.
The principal of University of X is my aunt. Her surname is Zhao. You can go to her directly if you need anything. However, shes a little stupid, so you can just be more direct. Besides, I sent her daughter directly to the military school for training, so she might be gritting her teeth in hatred. So, if she takes it out on you, just pretend you dont know her.
Shuyin was quite touched at first, but when she heard thest part, she was both angry and amused!
Was he trying to find her a backer or to find her hatred?!
Youve offended your aunt and you still want me to look for her?
Just pretend he didnt know her?
She didnt know her in the first ce!
Shuyin made up her mind that no matter what happened in school, she would not bother the principal, in case she was implicated by Jing Rui.

In another helicopter, Jing Xi and Jing Zhi were eating a bunch of snacks happily.
Although Jing Xi liked Shuyin a lot, she was only allowed to eat one or two lollipops and popsicles a day because Shuyin didnt allow her to eat too many snacks. Today, she could finally eat a lot of candy without any restraint!
She had a piece of candy in her mouth and was still stuffing pine nuts into her mouth. When she saw that Jing Zhi had finished peeling the pine nuts, she reached out to grab them.
Second brother, Im your younger sister. You should give in to me!
Im your brother. Shouldnt you be filial to me as a sister? Youre not allowed to snatch it, youve eaten this entire packet of pine nuts! I can only lick the pine nuts!
Jing Xis eyes curved into crescents as she smiled. Alright, her second brother was indeed quite pitiful. Shed better not bully him. Shed continue to bully her brother when they returned to A city!
She moved closer to Jing Zhi and asked mysteriously,Second brother, what do you think our brother is doing with sister Shuyin on the ne? Why did he have to send us away? One more helicopter will burn a lot of gasoline!
The little girl Knew Too Much, and it was impossible to fool her now!
Jing Zhi felt that he should stay away from Jing Xi in the future, otherwise he would not be able to date.
But ... He also wanted to know what his brother was doing.
Your sister Shuyin might be Shuyins sister-inw soon. Sigh, its fine if you call her sister-inw, but if I call her sister-inw too, wouldnt she be taking advantage of me?!
Although Jing Zhi felt that there was an indelible gap between his brother and Shuyin, as long as he could keep the secret and Shuyin would never know about it, they could be together forever.
In fact, he was very happy to make room for his brother. His brother was always too cold and steady, and rarely had any impulsive moments.
He hoped that when he was pursuing a girl, his brother would be impulsive and take her down first!
Second brother, when can I have a second sister-inw?
Why are you so anxious? Im not even in a hurry to find a wife. Wait for me to pick a good one, and find an obedient, pretty, and simple one!
You still want to choose?
Why not? Your second brother is so handsome, there are so many beautiful women in my arms, Im dazzled by them!
Then what about sister luoluo? Didnt you two already have sex? Youre going to abandon her?
Get on the bed ...
Jing Zhi smacked Jing Xis butt and said,Who taught you this? Little girl, you know whats sex?
Isnt it just two people taking off their clothes and being together ...
Jing Zhi covered her mouth before she could finish.Stop, stop, stop! Youre getting more and more outrageous!
They quarreled all the way until the helicopternded in A city and they got into the car sent by Jing Yichen. Jing Xi finally reacted.Second brother, since youre not here to look for sister luoluo, why did you follow her back to A city?
Im homesick, cant I?
Second uncle and second aunt are both in North America. Who do you miss?
I dont want to be separated from you. Youre my only sister. I cant be at ease without you by my side!
My brother will protect me! Besides, Ill be going to school with sister Shuyin. You dont have anything to do here!
Jing Zhi sighed helplessly. His sister was too smart. He couldnt hide it from her.
His brother had handed the assassin organization to him. In fact, he needed to stay in North America to take care of some daily trivial matters and negotiate business with various forces.
He should not havee back.
However, when he found out that his brother and sister wereing back, he couldnt help but follow them back.
He had thought that he would forget about Zheng yuluo after not seeing her for a long time.
However, reality proved that he still loved and hated her at the same time. The two emotions were entangled together, and it was very ufortable for him.
The beautiful women in North America were all sexy and pretty, but Jing Zhi didnt have much feelings for them.
Was it because they were both European and American?
He still preferred delicate and weak Asian girls.
European girls were too open and wild, and he didnt like them.
However, he did not think that he liked Zheng yuluo either.
His initial goal was to torture her until she was better off dead.
Now, was she living a life worse than death?
It didnt seem like it at all!
She didnt know how carefree she was now!
Jing Xi also said that Zheng Yuwei had introduced a boyfriend to her!
He didnt have a girlfriend yet, and she dared to find a man!
Jing Zhi handed Jing Xi over to Jing Yichen and left after a short while.
Jing Rui and Shuyin had not arrived at A city yet, so Jing Rui had deliberately slowed down their helicopter.
Jing Zhi called him and told him that Jing Xi had arrived home. Then he drove one of Jing Ruis cars to Zheng yuluos house.
Zheng yuluos room was no different from before. It was still extremely simple, without any fancy decorations that a young girl should have.
However, what made Jing Zhi angry was that Zheng yuluo was not at home even though it was already midnight.
He walked out, got into the car, and drove it a little further. Then, he sat in the car and waited for Zheng yuluo to return.
Jing Zhi didnt have to wait long before a sapphire blue Porsche came into his view.
His vision was so good that he could see a man and a woman sitting in the Porsche from a distance.
The man was handsome and well-dressed. He was wearing a British-style id shirt with crystal buttons that glowed luxuriously in the dark night. It also highlighted the expensive price of the shirt.
The woman was wearing a white dress, and she was sitting in the passengers seat. She was talking to the man.
Jing Zhis hearing had been damaged before. Although it had recovered a little, he couldnt hear things from far away as he had before.
He only saw Zheng yuluo with a gentle smile on her face, holding a bouquet of bright red roses in her arms, and talking to the man in the drivers seat intimately.
He couldnt hear their conversation, but he could hear the sound of something slowly breaking in his heart.
He really thought that Jing Xi was just joking!
He had thought that his sister was just trying to provoke him!
However, she did not expect to see Zheng yuluoing home with her boyfriend on the first day she returned to city A!
Jing Xi had just set his watch to automatically alert him on the dot.
At this moment, the dial was slightly lit and made a light beep sound, indicating that it was oneo clock in the morning.
Jing Zhi wouldnt believe it if a man sent her home at one in the morning.
Not to mention, the two of them looked so intimate.
Jing Zhi was angry, but he also hated himself.
He deserved it!
He had been harmed by her so many times, but he still had hope!
His brain must have been kicked by a donkey!
Chapter 1077
Chapter 1077: Anger
Trantor: 549690339
Although Jing Zhi was so angry that he wanted to kill someone, he had been in the assassin camp for seven years. He had enough willpower to control himself.
He sat in the car and watched as the Porsche approached and finally stopped in front of the Zheng familys Vi.
He saw the man lean over, get close to Zheng yuluo, unbuckle her seat belt, and stroke her long hair with a smile. Then, he opened the door for her.
They were very close to each other, and without the noise of the sports cars engine, Jing Zhi could hear every word clearly.
Alright, were home. Dont let your thoughts run wild. Have a good rest. Ill pick you up tomorrow morning.
His tone was gentle and familiar, as if they had known each other for a long time.
Jing Zhi felt as if he had been shot in the chest.
It had only been two and a half months since Zheng yuluo returned from North America!
After getting rid of him, she got together with another man so quickly?
No need, I can go by myself. Theres no need to trouble you.
Why are you being so polite with me? Its on the way anyway, so dont reject me. If you do, youll hurt our rtionship.
This ...
Its my birthday today. You cant possibly reject such a small request, right? Luoluo, are we friends? Arent you a little too cruel?
...Alright. Thank you, Ziyi.
Lovey-dovey, sweet and sweet!
Jing Zhi couldnt listen to her anymore. He opened the car door and got out.
The car he was driving today was ck and not very conspicuous in the dark. Zheng yuluo and Lou Ziyi did not see the car at all, and they did not expect that someone would be hiding here sote at night.
So, when they heard the sound of the car door opening and closing, they were shocked and couldnt help but turn to look at the source of the sound.
Lou Ziyis car lights were on. Two beams of light drove away the darkness and shone on Jing Zhis handsome and cold face.
Lou Ziyi frowned, but Zheng yuluo rubbed her eyes!
Jing Zhi?
She had never expected to see him in front of her house!
Zheng yuluo was stunned for a moment. Before she could react, Jing Zhi had already pulled her out of the car.
His actions were too rough. Not only did the bouquet in Zheng yuluos arms fall to the ground, but she couldnt even stand still. Her arm was in pain from his grip.
She could not help but cry out in pain.
Lou Ziyi immediately got out of the car and asked angrily,Who are you? Youre snatching her away in the middle of the night. If you dont let go, Ill call the police!
Jing Zhi didnt even look at him. He grabbed Zheng yuluos arm and said in a cold and disdainful tone,Zheng yuluo, I didnt expect you to be so capable! She left my ce and hooked up with another man. Her charm is still the same as before! Youre courting death!
Zheng yuluos entire body was almost pulled into his arms. She felt that her arm would be broken by him soon!
When she was very young, she knew that he was much stronger than others. Today, she finally knew how much strength he had!
He could really crush her bones with one hand!
Let go, my arm hurts!
Lou Ziyis heart ached for Zheng yuluo, who was being bullied. He punched Jing Zhi in the chest without thinking.Release her!
Lou Ziyi thought he could knock Jing Zhi down with one punch, but he didnt expect to be kicked far away before he could even touch Jing Zhis clothes.
Zheng yuluo was so scared that her face turned pale, and she screamed,Ziyi!
Lou Ziyi could not hear Zheng yuluos voice at this moment. He only felt that his internal organs had shifted, his bones were about to break, and even breathing hurt!
He vomited arge mouthful of blood, and then he couldnt hold on any longer and fainted.
Zheng yuluos tears kept falling. She knew how hard Jing Zhi could kick people.
She had almost lost her life because of a kick from him! She deeply understood the pain of facing death!
If Lou Ziyi died, how would she exin it to the Lou family?
Youre crazy! How can you just kill people!
Zheng yuluo was already sobbing. She was really afraid that Lou Ziyi would lose his life because of her!
She had already given her life to Jing Zhi. If he wanted her dead, she wouldnt have anyints. She deserved it.
However, Lou Ziyi should not give up his life for this!
Ive always killed people as I please. Is this the first time youve seen it?!
Jing Zhi looked at Zheng yuluos heartbroken expression, as if the person he loved the most had died. He was burning with anger and wanted to strangle Zheng yuluo in his arms!
You seem to have forgotten that Im a professional killer! I also forgot who handed me over to the killer! It seems that youre very sad that he died. Thats good. I want you to be in pain, to live a life worse than death! I will kill everyone around you one by one!
Ill pay back what I owe you alone!
Zheng yuluo was extremely panicked. It didnt matter if she died, but she couldnt implicate others!
Lou Ziyi doesnt know anything. Hes a good person, let him go! If you want to take revenge on me, you can torture me however you want! But Im going to send Lou Ziyi to the hospital now. He cant die!
Jing Zhi was so angry that he suddenly increased the strength in his hand. Then, there was a crisp crack.
Zheng yuluos arm was fractured!
She screamed in pain and broke out in a cold sweat.
Jing Zhi did not expect Zheng yuluos spine to be so fragile that he could break it!
Hearing Zheng yuluos scream, he let go of her subconsciously.
Zheng yuluo lost her support and fell to the ground.
However, she couldnt care less about her arm. She was afraid that Lou Ziyi would die if she dyed for even a second!
She got up from the ground and got into the car. Using her intact arm, she took out her phone from her bag and called the emergency number with trembling hands.
Jing Zhi stood there expressionlessly and did not stop Zheng yuluo from calling to save her.
He felt like a ridiculous clown, stubbornly torturing Zheng yuluo and himself.
In order to save her, he didnt care about the bullets that went through his chest. He even ruined his brothers deployment and let his substitute go.
It had only been two months, and she had already forgotten about him?
He didnt know if Lou Ziyi was dead or not, but he felt that the scene in front of him was extremely ring.
As he was rejected by Zheng yuluo and scolded by her, the feeling of deja vu became clearer and clearer!
The memories flooded in like a tidal wave!
The scenes of his childhood shed through his mind!
Shu Chengshan had hypnotized him many times, but he only managed to recall a small part of his memory.
But today, he didnt need any hypnosis. In apletely sober state, he remembered all the things he had forgotten!
Once, he had been rejected by her like this!
Chapter 1078
Chapter 1078: Do you like her?
Trantor: 549690339
In the past, Zheng yuluo and the others did not know that he had the virus in his body. They called him a monster because he could eat too much, because he had infinite strength, and because they could die if they were not careful and came into contact with him.
In fact, he had never known that there was a virus in his body.
He only knew that he could not touch other children.
The only person she coulde into contact with was her brother.
The only one who didnt mind him was his brother.
However, his brother was the only one who had been hurt by him and almost lost his life. As for the others, he had only yed pranks on them at most. He had never harmed anyone with any ill intentions.
His brother, who was harmed by him, had been taking care of him and protecting him. On the other hand, the others avoided him like a snake.
Jing Zhi stood there and watched as Zheng yuluo ran to Lou Ziyis side and kept calling him Ziyi. He suddenly felt that he was extra.
He turned around and strode into his car. He started the engine and left as fast as he could.
Zheng yuluo heard that Jing Zhi had left.
Her heart was extremely sour. She had finally hoped for his return, but she did not expect to meet him in such a situation!
She felt that she was the one who had gone crazy. He was so cruel to her that he could break her arm, but she still couldnt bear to leave him!
She felt that it was not only her arm that was broken, but her heart was also easily crushed by him.
Zheng yuluo stayed by Lou Ziyis side. She didnt go after Jing Zhi, because she couldnt catch up with him and didnt dare to.
Otherwise, if he returned and gave Lou Ziyi a kick, his life would bepletely lost here.
Fortunately, the ambnce arrived quickly and she followed him to the hospital. She only had the energy to deal with her arm after Lou Ziyi was sent to the emergency room.
Her arm was already very swollen, and the pain was unbearable.
After the X-ray, when the doctor treated her fracture, her tears fell.
The doctor thought she was in too much pain andforted her,Its not good to use too much anesthetic, so I only gave you one shot. If youre afraid of pain, I can give you another one.
Zheng yuluo shook her head while crying.No need. Im fine.
She was crying not only because the fracture was too painful, but also because she thought Jing Zhi was too cruel.
They had done the most intimate thing, but in the end, he turned against her and even broke her bones!
Perhaps, human lives were not worth anything in his hands.
He was too stubborn!
More than an hourter, Lou Ziyi was pushed out of the emergency room and sent to the general ward.
Fortunately, although Lou Ziyi was still unconscious, his injuries were not very serious. The doctor said that his life was not in danger, but he would suffer a little.
Zheng yuluo stayed by his side and didnt dare to tell the Lou family or her parents about his injury.
Since Lou Ziyi was fine, she didnt want to make a scene at home.
One of Zheng yuluos arms was fixed in ce with a medical splint. Her face was pale as she halfid on an empty bed, thinking about how to exin to Lou Ziyis parents the next day.
She suddenly remembered what Jing Zhi had said to her when they had first met.
Was he so angry because he suspected that she was with Lou Ziyi?
He said that she had seduced other men, but that was not true at all!
She and Lou Ziyi could only be considered as ordinary friends.
Did Jing Zhi really mind her being with another man?
Did he like her?
Zheng yuluo didnt even believe her own words. If she liked her, why would she break her arm?
However, she did not know why he had suddenly returned to A city.
Could it be that his parents had returned, so he came back with them?
When did hee back?
It was already sote, but he had been waiting for her outside the door the whole time.
As Zheng yuluo thought about it, her tears fell again.
She didnt know why she fell for Jing Zhi. Was it because she had been looking for him for too long?
Or was it because she was already his and had given her body to him, so her heart had also been lost?
Her rationality told her that she could like anyone but Jing Zhi.
However, he could not control his emotions.
He really didnt have the final say in who he was attracted to.
In all fairness, Lou Ziyi was also an excellent boy.
He was tall, handsome, gentle and patient. He never lost his temper and had a good upbringing. He had everything that a rich young master should have, but he didnt have the bad habits of a young master.
This person was introduced to her by her younger sister Zheng Yuwei. They had known each other for more than a month, but he had always been gentle and elegant, never forcing people to do things against their will.
Such a handsome and rich young master could easily move the hearts of girls.
However, Zheng yuluo had no feelings for him.
She had never thought of trying to start a rtionship with another boy. She could not ept another man touching her in a short time.
Jing Zhis car was already at full speed.
In the dead of the night, there were very few pedestrians and cars on the road. He was the only one speeding, running countless red lights. Finally, he hit the guardrail by the sea before stopping.
He was driving a modified car. It looked like an ordinary Volkswagen on the outside, but in fact, it had been modified on the inside.
The car didnt crash into the guardrail at high speed, but Jing Zhi didnt suffer any damage.
However, the huge impact made his heart feel a little ufortable.
He opened the car door, walked to the guardrails, and jumped into the bottomless sea.
The bone-chilling seawater drowned him, but it finally made him sober up a little.
He swam in the sea for a long time and did note back to the shore until the sky was bright. He drove the Volkswagen that he had destroyed to find Jing Rui.
In order to get Shuyin to stay with him, Jing Rui didnt go home. Instead, he asked for a new vi from Jing Yichen and moved in with Shuyin.
The vi had been tidied upst month, and they were just waiting for Jing Rui toe back.
Jing Zhi knew where the vi was, so he arrived in no time.
He didnt care if he would interrupt his brother and Shuyins lovey-dovey talk and went straight through the vis main door.
Jing Rui had known that Jing Zhi was here when he was within a mile of the vi.
Han Feng and his subordinates were not to be trifled with. They had long since been on guard outside.
But Jing Rui frowned when he saw the ruined car and his brothers wet hair.
He asked coldly,what happened? Someone touched you?
A city was family Jings territory. Although Jing Rui did not have as much control over the city as his father did, he had already received Jing Zhis whereabouts and urged him to find Zheng yuluo.
However, why was he in such a sorry state after finding Zheng yuluo?
Chapter 1079
Chapter 1079: Teaching my brother a lesson
Trantor: 549690339
Big brother, Im feeling terrible ...
Jing Zhis voice was low and hoarse. His face was pale and he was drenched. He looked like an abandoned beast who hade to find the person closest to him to recuperate after being injured.
He sat down on the sofa with a nk expression.
Jing Rui looked him up and down. Seeing that he was not injured, he was relieved and did not ask him what was wrong.
Jing Rui felt that there could be nothing else but a rtionship problem that could make an assassin, who had survived a bloody battle, lose his soul.
You broke up with Zheng yuluo?
He hit the nail on the head and immediately guessed the reason.
Jing Zhi didnt say anything. He and Zheng yuluo might have never even started.
He did not deny it, and Jing Rui knew that he had guessed right.
He was both angry and amused!
Ive only just realized today that youre actually a devoted killer! Didnt you say you didnt like her? Why did hee back in such a sorry state? Arent you afraid of losing face?
Jing Rui criticized his brother. He was not a child anymore. He had been through a lot. He was not afraid that he would not be able to take the blow.
Youre now the person in charge of the worldsrgest assassin organization. So many peoples lives are in your hands, and youre defeated by such a small matter? Wheres your rationality?
Jing Zhis heart was filled with warmth when he heard his brothers stern voice.
He felt that everyone in the world would abandon him, but his brother would not.
Heid his head on his brothers legs and curled up on the sofa.
Brother, I remember what happened when I was young. I remember everything.
Big brother, youre the only one whos been good to me from the beginning to the end. No one else likes me.
Why?
Just because Im infected with the virus?
However, viruses were basically only transmitted through blood, and normally, hugging and touching would not cause any problems.
Jing Ruis light brown casual pants were soon soaked by the water from Jing Zhis hair.
Usually, Jing Rui would not let Jing Zhi lie on hisp. He was not used to such intimate contact with others, even his own brother.
However, at this moment, he endured it.
There wasnt a towel on the sofa, so he picked up a brand new tablecloth and dried Jing Zhis hair.
However, his actions and tone were not gentle at all.Ive spent so much effort, got Shucheng Shans help, and hypnotized him so many times, but I cantpare to Zheng yuluo! Youre really good!
When I was young, we were like fire and water.
I thought you already knew! She tied you up and sent you to the hands of the Virus Research Institute. You really cant get along with her!
But when I saw her with another man, I was very angry. Then, I beat the man half to death and broke Zheng yuluos arm. But why cant I be happy?
Jing Rui dried Jing Zhis hair and threw away the exquisite and luxurious tablecloth. He said calmly,If she falls for someone else, then shes not worthy of your love. There are many women in A city, you can choose again.
Jing Zhi closed his eyes and opened them after a while.Brother, do you like Shuyin?
Jing Ruis heart stirred. He was silent for a moment and finally said,yes.
Fortunately, Shuyin had been fighting with him on the ne for the whole day and had fallen asleep immediately after arriving here. Otherwise, it would have been inappropriate for her to hear such words.
He wanted to slowly invade her life and enter it, bing an indispensable part of her life.
He also needed to get used to it.
Shes not the best candidate, is she?
No, shes the best candidate.
Jing Rui knew what Jing Zhi was worried about. He said calmly,I know everything about her, and she knows everything about me. I admire all the good points she has, and I find her shorings very cute. She also has a deep sense of worship for me. When we start a family in the future, it will be very stable.
More importantly, he had promised Shu Chengshan that he would take care of Shuyin for the rest of his life. He used to think that it was troublesome and a burden, but now, if he had to take care of his woman, he only felt a sense of aplishment.
Didnt Shu Chengshan ask him to ensure that Shu Yin would live a rich life for the rest of her life?
Once she became his woman, she could be as rich as she wanted.
However, it wasnt his and Shu Yins problem now. It was Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo s.
If you have any rtionship problems in the future, you can go and ask Xixi. Shes young, but shes full of ideas. You can treat her as your rtionship mentor.
Jing Zhis heart had been warmed by his brother, and he was in a much better mood now. When he heard that his brother had asked him to ask Jing Xi, he felt that he was being despised.
How old is she? Im not going! Embarrassing!
Do you think that youre not embarrassed now? You destroyed my car and threw yourself into the sea to take a bath. How old are you?
Jing Zhi reeked of the sea, and there were a few pieces of seaweed on him. He must havee out of the sea. Jing Rui couldnt stand it anymore.
Alright, hurry up and take a bath and go to sleep! If you like Zheng yuluo, then just take her. If you still hate her, then don t!
Jing Rui did not tell her how he had always felt. He really did not like the twins.
Zheng yuluo had already ruined things too many times!
Although she didnt want to hurt Jing Zhi now, she didnt know when she would do it again, so he couldnt be at ease.
However, Jing Rui thought that it was a good thing that Jing Zhi had encountered some setbacks in his rtionship.
This would help him grow quickly.
Jing Zhi went to take a shower, but Jing Rui did not go to bed.
He changed his clothes and drove to the hospital.
Han Feng had already found Zheng yuluos information and roughly investigated the incident.
Jing Rui wanted to make the trip on behalf of his brother.
When he arrived at the hospital, the sky was already slightly bright. The lights in the ward were not turned on, so he could only vaguely see a person lying on one bed, but the person on the other bed was sitting and awake.
When Zheng yuluo saw the door open, she thought it was a doctoring in for a ward round. But when she turned on the light, she found that it was Jing Rui!
She had always been in awe of Jing Rui since she was a child. When she grew up, she had experienced Jing Ruis coldness, and that had made her fear him.
When she saw Jing Rui, she felt that she had done something wrong and was very scared.
Although in fact, she was not wrong at all.
Jing Rui nced at Zheng yuluo, who had her head lowered. Seeing that her arm was secured by splints, he said calmly,Your life is Jing Zhi s. If he doesnt marry you, you can forget about marrying anyone else. The next time you make an exception, you wont just lose an arm!
His tone was so overbearing that Zheng yuluo was stunned for a moment!
Chapter 1080
Chapter 1080: Were not a couple
Trantor: 549690339
ording to Jing Rui, she could only be with Jing Zhi and not any other man.
If Jing Zhi didnt want her in the future, she would be alone until she died.
Although Zheng yuluo had never thought about having sex with any other man, nor had she ever thought about marriage, she still found it unbelievable that Jing Rui was forcing her to do so.
She had always known that Jing Rui was cold, but she did not expect him to be this cold!
He had no right to speak or choose anything that he didnt care about!
Zheng yuluo wanted to refute him, but the aura on his body was too strong, and the pressure was too heavy, forcing her to be unable to say a word.
If you dont care about your life, I can kill you now. Do you choose to die now or wait for death? Of course, if you die, Lou Ziyi wont be able to live either.
Jing Ruis tone was cold. He looked at Zheng yuluo as if he was looking at a de of grass that could be uprooted at any time.
He had nned to leave Jing Zhi in Zheng yuluos care. Shed been a good girl and had been very patient with Jing Zhi. She was well-behaved, had a simple background, and wasnt a scheming person. She was very suitable for Jing Zhi.
However, if she was also so good to other men, then she had to be excluded.
Dont touch Lou Ziyi!
Zheng yuluo did not expect Lou Ziyi to be implicated by her to this extent today. If he were to die, she would be extremely wronged!
Im just friends with him. Youve all misunderstood! Ill pay for what I owe Jing Zhi. Lou Ziyi is a friend my sister introduced to me. Weve only known each other for a month. We dont have anything!
Zheng yuluo finally realized why Jing Zhi and Jing Rui had such a big reaction. Why did they not want to let Lou Ziyi go?
They all thought that she was together with Lou Ziyi!
Lou Ziyi did like her, but she had no feelings for him!
Not even friends. If you want him to live, then tell him to stay away from you.
If you want to make friends, why dont you find a girl? Whats with finding a male best friend?
Jing Rui did not believe in pure friendship between the opposite sex. The two young men had been together for a long time. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful and gentle. They were going back and forth. It was time for them to fall in love.
He didnt have a good impression of Shuyin the first time he saw her. On the contrary, because of Shucheng mountain, he didnt like her when he first saw her. He didnt even feelfortable when she touched him.
However, as the two of them got along for a long time, their bright spots were discovered, and the two of them became more and morepatible. Their feelings for each other slowly warmed up.
Jing Zhis behavior today showed that the rtionship between Zheng yuluo and Lou Ziyi was not as simple as she had said.
Jing Zhi was impulsive, but he still had basic judgment.
Jing Rui trusted his brother more than Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo gritted her teeth and said in a low voice,okay, dont worry. Hell definitely stay far away from me in the future!
Although the time she spent with Lou Ziyi was short, they got along well. He was her only friend now.
Since Lou Ziyis life could only be saved by staying away from her, she decided to let her be alone.
She had been without friends for so many years, and she was already used to it.
Jing Rui could see Zheng yuluos unwillingness. He frowned and nced at Lou Ziyi, who was lying on the bed, pretending to be dead. He reevaluated Lou Ziyis importance in Zheng yuluos heart.
Did women change their minds so quickly?
It seemed like he needed to keep a close eye on Shuyin!
Jing Rui did not want to say anything to Zheng yuluo. He had made it clear that he would help Jing Zhi if Zheng yuluo did not listen to him.
Of course, he would not touch Zheng yuluo. He would only make those men who were close to Zheng yuluo not dare to approach her again!
Lou Ziyi opened his eyes as soon as he turned to leave.
In fact, he had woken up the moment Jing Rui came in and Zheng yuluo turned on the light.
He had also heard their conversation clearly.
He did not know Jing Zhi, but he knew Jing Rui.
Or rather, the person he knew was Liao Wei.
The two of them looked so simr, and Lou Ziyi had only met Liao Wei once, so he did not know that the person he had met today was Jing Rui.
He was extremely shocked!
Family Jing was one of the top noble families in A city.
As the only heir of the Jing family, Jing Rui had a superior status and a distinguished identity.
It was rumored that he was a man of few words and had a cold personality, but the facts had proven that he was even more terrifying than the rumors!
The Lou family was a well-known family in A city. Although Lou Ziyi was not the heir of the Lou family, he had received an aristocratic education since he was young. He knew the situation of many families in A city very well.
At this moment, he finally knew who the person he had seenst night was!
He was the missing child of family Jing eight years ago, Jing Ruis younger brother, Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhis disappearance had caused quite a stir in the city.
Everyone was shocked that someone had dared to touch the Jing family, and that even the powerful Jing family couldnt get Jing Zhi back.
And now, Jing Zhi, who had been missing for eight years, was back.
And it seemed to have an unusual rtionship with Zheng yuluo!
Lou Ziyis mind was in a mess, and he was a little flustered.
He knew nothing about Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi before he pursued her.
He had never expected Zheng yuluo to be Jing Zhis woman!
Zheng yuluo had never said a word. She had been quiet, did not talk much, and did not like to smile. She looked depressed and had a lot on her mind.
Lou Ziyi finally understood why Zheng yuluo was like this!
He suddenly remembered that there was a rumor that when Jing Zhi was kidnapped, Zheng yuluo was the one who sent him to the human traffickers.
Perhaps the rumors were true?
Zheng yuluo found that Lou Ziyi had woken up. She was a little helpless, but she still asked him with concern,Ziyi, do you feel ufortable anywhere? Ill call the doctor for you!
Lou Ziyiy there and looked at Zheng yuluo quietly. After a while, heughed bitterly.Yuluo, youve hidden it too well! You and Jing Zhi ... You shouldve told me earlier!
His voice was hoarse, with unspeakable bitterness and sadness.
He really liked Zheng yuluo, but Zheng yuluo had hidden such a big thing from him. After knowing the truth, he felt that his heart was going to turn cold!
Zheng yuluo lowered her head and said softly,I didnt mean to hide it from you. I dont dare to tell anyone about him. I harmed him in the past, so I can only keep all his secrets.
Then you should at least tell me that you already have a boyfriend!
I ...
Zheng yuluo opened her mouth and was silent for a while before saying,Were not a couple.
The two of them couldnt even be considered friends, right?
Chapter 1081
Chapter 1081: Looking for excitement
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziyi had been protected by his brothers and sisters since he was a child. He didnt need to run around at home. He was simple-minded, but that didnt mean he was stupid.
If Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi were just friends, Jing Rui would not havee to the hospital today. How could he have said such words!
Jing Ruiing to see Zheng yuluo alone was enough to prove how important Zheng yuluo was to Jing Zhi.
Yuluo, I really like you, do you know that? Ive always felt that youre the kind of girl Ive been looking for.
Lou Ziyis confession caught Zheng yuluo off guard.
She actually knew Lou Ziyis thoughts, because he had made it very obvious.
However, he had never said it clearly, nor had he forced her. He only said that they were good friends now.
In the past month or so, he had been considerate and attentive, caring for every little thing about her, as if they had known each other for a long time, and they had been together naturally andfortably.
The fear of losing Jing Zhi was driven away by Lou Ziyi.
Zheng yuluo naively thought that they were true friends.
Was she too stupid?
Or did she ask for too much?
No, thats not it!
What she wanted was never Lou Ziyis warmth and consideration. She just wanted to try to get in touch with other people!
She wanted to force herself to forget Jing Zhi.
Otherwise, with his face constantly running around in her mind, she would always be unable to control herself from thinking about him!
However, he was far away in North America, separated by mountains and rivers.
She suspected that she had never entered his heart!
She was just a tool for him to vent his anger.
This knowledge made her panic, sad, and heartbroken.
Tears fell from the corners of Zheng yuluos eyes. She said softly,Ziyi, Im sorry. Ive harmed you. I didnt know that he would hurt you. He has always been impulsive, so dont hold it against him. If you want to me someone, me me. I didnt handle the matter well. In the future, just treat it as if ... Youve never known me.
Lou Ziyis heart softened when he saw the self-me on her gentle and beautiful face.
He raised his hand to wipe Zheng yuluos tears andforted her,No, Im not ming you. Im just ... Too shocked. Its my honor to meet you. Jing Zhi was the one who hit you, not you. You dont have to take responsibility for him.
Lou Ziyi said and then noticed that Zheng yuluos arm was injured.
Did Jing Zhi hurt your arm? he asked, frowning.
Zheng yuluo forced a smile.He was probably too angry and identally broke my bone. Its okay. Ill be fine in a few days.
How can he be fine? It takes a hundred days to recover from a serious injury, and you need to rest for at least three months! Its fine if he hit me, but how could he hit you!
Zheng yuluo was delicate and weak! How could Jing Zhiy his hands on such a flower! Like girl!
Luoyu, you cant be with him! He would suffer domestic violence in the future! Hes too dangerous, hes going to kill you if you dont like him. Youre a girl, you cant fight back at all!
Lou Ziyis heart ached for the girl he liked. He couldnt even bear to touch Zheng yuluo, but Jing Zhi broke his bone!
He only hated himself for not being strong enough to seek justice for Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo shook her head with a bitter smile.
In fact, Jing Zhi had been gentle when she was with him.
Other than giving her a hard time, he had never really used violence on her.
When Jing Zhi had broken her arm, her heart had been cold. But now, she didnt feel that pain anymore.
At least she could be sure that Jing Zhi had been very kind to her.
Ziyi, dont get involved in my Affairs, I dont want to drag you down. Also, from today onwards, lets not meet again.
Lou Ziyi looked at her in a daze. After a long time, he bitterly spat out a word,Alright, he said.
He could tell that Zheng yuluos heart was not with him, and the Lou family could notpete with the Jing family. If Jing Rui said that he wanted to kill him, the Lou family could not protect him.
Fortunately, it had only been a little more than a month, so he had not fallen too deep.
Lou Ziyi wasnt sure if he would let go of her if they continued to get along.
It was rare for him to fall in love with a girl, but now it had ended in a tragic end.
He was unwilling and in pain, but he didnt know what to do.
Lou Ziyi had never experienced any big waves, but he had been obedient since he was young. He didnt want to cause trouble for the Lou family.
There used to be three super-rich families in A city, family Jing, family Ji and family yang. But now family yang had beenpletely destroyed and family Ji had lost their former glory, because they had all been against family Jing.
The Lou family couldnt even bepared to half of the Yang family. Their ancestors had worked hard for generations to gain some fame. They couldnt be destroyed in his hands!
Jing Zhi didnt know that his brother had be a bad guy for him. He took a shower and left the house instead of going to bed.
He entered a well-lit bar and sat far away. He drank while watching the men and women in the bar dance.
Perhaps his appearance and temperament were too eye-catching, many women around him squeezed to his side.
Handsome, youre alone! Wasnt she alone? It just so happens that Im also alone, so we can make a pair!
You dont look familiar. Is this your first time here? Its really unfortunate that yourete. The popr show just now is over. Remember toe earlier next time!
The girls were all dressed more gorgeously and more revealing than thest.
Unfortunately, Jing Zhi hade back from a country of bikinis. None of the women in the bar were wearing bikinis. At most, they only revealed half of their breasts.
The perfume on their bodies was too strong, and their makeup looked like ghosts, without the slightest sense of beauty.
His sense of smell was more than ten times stronger than that of ordinary people, and the smell of perfume and cosmetics made him very ufortable.
Get lost!
He only said one word, and all of them immediately ran away.
Because the cold feeling on his body was too strong, as if he could kill someone at any time!
The girls in the bar were only after money, no one wanted to give up their lives.
Jing Zhi hade to the bar for some excitement. He wanted to indulge himself.
A man would usually have many women in his life, especially in North America. A man of his age changed girlfriends more frequently than anything else.
However, after he came to the bar, he was not interested in the women with heavy makeup at all.
Although he wasnt as obsessed with cleanliness as his brother, he was repulsed by women who had been hugged by others.
One of the bars waiters came to deliver wine to Jing Zhi. He looked at her delicate skin and finally found someone he liked.
She didnt have any makeup or perfume on. Her round face and two dimples made her look a little cute.
He pulled the little girl to his side and said,Sit down!

Chapter 1082: A wonderful world
Trantor: 549690339
It was the young girls first day at the bar. She was so scared that she almost dropped the bottle of wine in her hand when Jing Zhi grabbed her.
However, she still protected it with all her might. The price of a bottle of wine was outrageously expensive, not something she could afford at all.
She wanted to break free from Jing Zhis grip, but she couldn t.
She was so anxious that she was about to cry. She looked at her manager for help, but the manager shook his head at her and gave her a look, signaling her to serve her big client, Xuanji, Jing Zhi, who had ordered six bottles of wine in a row. The total price had already exceeded 100000 Yuan!
The little girl could get more than 10000 Yuan in Commission tonight!
Such a rich person didnt hurry to hug someones thigh and actually wanted to leave! Hes sick!
The manager of the bar had originally taken good care of the little girl, but she wasnt that noble to not make money. Protecting the little girl was only within her ability.
Jing Zhi didnt care about the girls pleas. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her to sit down next to him. He asked her casually, Whats your name?
My name is Xiao Ling. Sir, I ... Im just a waiter. I dont drink with you. Ill find you a prettier one to apany you, okay?
Xiao Ling begged pitifully. She had been forced to drink with several customers in a row that night, but as long as she cried pitifully enough, those men would not force her, and the manager would also help her block the tears.
However, the manager obviously didnt care about her anymore. Although she wanted to earn money, she still couldnt be a drinking partner.
She just wanted to carry the te obediently and was very afraid of being bullied by those men.
Although the man in front of her was very handsome, and all the men in the bar added together could notpare to him, Xiao Ling still did not want to drink with her.
Ive taken a fancy to you. Sit down obediently or Ill smash this bar!
Jing Zhi didnt even use a ss. He just drank from the bottle.
His alcohol tolerance had always been very good, and he would not get drunk no matter how much he drank. He hoped that he could get drunk once today.
Xiao Ling couldnt struggle against him, and seeing that he didnt touch her other than letting her sit there with him, she was slightly relieved.
She came from a poor family, and seeing Jing Zhi order so much expensive wine, she couldnt help but try to persuade him in a low voice.You ... Dont drink so much. The wine here is so expensive, and it doesnt taste good.
Although it was her first day at work, she had been given three days of simple training at the bar before she started work. Xiao Ling had already memorized the prices of the various drinks in the bar.
Not only that, but she had also tasted quite a lot of wine so that she could make targeted suggestions for the customers favorite vor.
She felt that those bottles of wine that cost 10000 to 20000 Yuan were not as good as Coke that cost three Yuan.
Moreover, it was easy to get a headache if one drank too much, so it was really not worth it.
She couldnt understand the world of the rich, just like how the rich couldnt understand why a poor girl like her was unwilling to lower her head to please men even though she clearlycked money.
The music in the bar was deafening, and the sky was getting bright. Men and women who had ended their nightlife left one after another.
The surroundings were very noisy and Xiao Lings voice was drowned out by the other sounds. She thought that Jing Zhi didnt hear what she said, but little did she know that Jing Zhi had heard everything.
However, he didnt take it to heart at all. The chaotic environment and theughing crowd made him gradually rx.
Sure enough, the outside world was much better. He should havee out to y long ago!
Here, as long as you had money, there would be all kinds of girls willing toe to you. You didnt need to pay any feelings, you didnt need to bear any responsibility, and you didnt have to feel the heartbreak of being abandoned.
Jing Zhi held my in one hand and a bottle of wine in the other. He was drinking to his hearts content.
Maybe he was in a bad mood today, or maybe there was something wrong with the wine, but he started to feel dizzy by the fourth bottle.
He wrapped his arms around Xiao Lings neck and pulled her closer to him. Heughed and said,Hahaha, the wine here is good! I like it!
Xiao Ling was weak and was no match for Jing Zhi. She had no choice but to lean against Jing Zhis chest, but surprisingly, she didnt hate him.
Was it because he was too handsome?
She looked at the drunk Jing Zhi and wondered why he could drink so much.
She started working at the bar at nineo clock in the evening, and by midnight, some people were already drunk. The wine Jing Zhi ordered was expensive, but it was real and didnt contain any water.
He had drunk so much, he should be drunk.
Little girl, whats your name? Why do I find you so familiar? have we met before?
This opening speech was really rotten to the core!
Xiao Ling was helpless. So he was still drunk! She had already said her name!
Sir, its dawn and our shop is closing. You need to pay the bill. Do you want to pay by card or cash?
Jing asked formally, but she knew that Jing Zhi wouldnt pay in cash. He only had his phone with him and no wallet.
Eh, thats not right!
Did he not bring his wallet?
How do I pay for this?
Could it be that his bank card was in his pocket?
He wouldnt go back on his word, right?
Jing Zhi had drunk a hundred thousand Yuan worth of wine. Even if he sold her, she wouldnt be worth that much!
When Jing Zhi wasnt paying attention, she waved at the manager, signaling for her to get someone to pay the bill.
The manager of the bar was surnamed Cao, and everyone called her sister Cao.
She was a mature and flirtatious woman in her thirties. Her long hair was dyed chestnut brown and permed in big waves. Her figure was enchanting, and her temperament was charming.
She had quite a strong backing, and the people who came here to have fun all gave her face and rarely caused trouble in the bar.
Most of the time, she was kind and enthusiastic. She didnt get angry. Even if she was angry and disgusted, she could still talk andugh.
Compared to Xiao Ling, she had experienced too much in the field of romance. Her insight, experience, and schemes were naturally much better than Xiao Ling s.
In fact, she had already noticed that Jing Zhi hade in without his wallet.
But she wasnt worried at all that Jing Zhi couldnt afford the 100000 Yuan.
The unremarkable ck Casual clothes he was wearing were made by a famous Italy teacher. The brown leather shoes on his feet were famous luxury goods. The watch on his wrist was patekphilipe, which was ranked first among the worlds top ten luxury watches and was worth more than 100000 US dors.
How could such a personck that 100000 Yuan?
There must be a lot of people who paid him.
Seeing Xiao mo desperately trying to signal her with his eyes, Cao Jing couldnt help but find it funny.
The little girl was innocent. On the one hand, she didnt like the behavior of the bar, but on the other hand, she was afraid that someone would go back on their word and the bar would make a loss.
Chapter 1083
Chapter 1083: The only number in the address book
Trantor: 549690339
It was already dawn and the staff should be off work. Cao Jing picked a cashier and asked her to bring the bill to Jing Zhi.
The cashier was also a pretty girl, but she was much more experienced than Xiao Ling. With a professional smile on her face, she said in a gentle and intimate tone,Brother, its dawn, time to go home and sleep! Come back tomorrow! Here, this is the wine you drank. Take a look and see if its correct.
She handed the list to Jing Zhi as she spoke.
Jing Zhi felt dizzy. He heard someone calling him brother, so he tried to open his eyes and asked in a muffled voice,Eh? Did my brothere?
She was obviously drunk and a little delirious.
This kind of situation was really toomon in bars.
The cashier no longer beat around the bush and said directly,Brother, you spent a total of 116300 Yuan. Our manager said that since youre so generous, we cant be stingy. Weve already rounded up the change and only charged you 110000 Yuan. Would you like to pay by card or cash?
Jing Zhis ears buzzed, and he couldnt hear what the cashier was saying. Hey on top of Xiao Ling, put his feet on the sofa, and closed his eyes.
The cashier stomped her foot angrily and turned around to look for the manager.
Jing Rui received Jing Zhis call at Seveno clock, but it was not Jing Zhis voice. It was a gentle female voice.
Hello, Sir, are you the ne masters brother? Im sorry, your brother is drunk in our bar, so we can only use his phone to call you.
Jing Rui frowned and said,The address.
The other party gave an address and said,He still owes us 110000 Yuan for his drinks. Dont forget to bring the money.
Jing Rui nodded and hung up the phone.
He believed that the other party was telling the truth.
He knew that Jing Zhi had gone to the bar for a drink, so he had sent someone to follow Jing Zhi in case something happened.
Jing Zhis phone didnt have a password. He didnt like the trouble of unlocking it, and he didnt have any secrets on his phone.
It was very normal for the other party to use his phone to find him.
After all, Jing Zhis phone only had his own number saved in it. He didnt have anyone else s, such as Shuyins or Peter s, number saved in his phone.
Jing Rui drove to the bar to pick them up, but Cao Jing and Xiao Ling were surprised by the contact on Jing Zhis phone.
In this day and age, who would only have one person in their contact list?
Fortunately, they had a contact. If they didnt have one, who else could they find to get Jing Zhi away?
Xiao Ling, what do you think of this handsome guy? Do you like him?
Cao Jing, who was sitting next to Jing Zhi, reached out her fair and delicate hand and patted Jing Zhis face. She couldnt help but smile when she heard him speak a long string of English words in dissatisfaction.
He was even someone who had just returned from abroad, and his English was even better than his mother tongue.
Xiao Ling didnt understand why the manager was smiling so happily. She looked at Jing Zhi and told him the truth.Sister Cao, hes quite handsome, but Ive never seen a man more handsome than him! But I dont like him. None of the men here are good people.
She bit her lip, a little conflicted about whether she should work here or not.
Although there was a lot of money here, it was too unsafe!
She felt terrible that someone wanted to take advantage of her at every turn.
If her mother found out that she was working in a bar, she would definitely break her legs.
Cao Jing had been cultivating for many years and had long be a sophisticated person. She knew what Xiao mo was thinking just by looking at her face.
Handsome, rich, and has the most basic respect for women, how is he not a good person? Xiao Ling, youre still too young. Do you think that men should bepletely devoted to you? The premise was that you had to have enough charm. You dont want to work for me anymore, do you?
Xiao mo wasnt good at lying, so she whispered,Sister Cao, Im sorry. I thought I could do this job.
Cao Jing did not force her. The little girl was a nk piece of paper. It was normal for her to not want to work.
Its okay. When were done here, you can find an ountant to settle the bill. Your Commission will not be less, but I wont ept you in the future. This isnt a charity organization where you cane and go as you please.
Xiao Ling felt embarrassed that she had fired her boss after only one day of work.
As the two of them were talking, they looked up and saw a man with a powerful aura walking in.
He was dressed in a ck suit and a dark gray shirt. He looked clean and neat, but he exuded an indescribable sense of nobility.
There were four men behind him who looked like bodyguards. They were all in ck suits and shirts, which made the leader look even more distinguished.
Cao Jing had thought that Jing Zhi was already handsome enough, but she didnt expect his brother to be even more handsome and Noble than him.
The two brothers did not look alike, but the sharp and cold feeling they gave off was exactly the same.
Cao Jings instinct told her that these two men must have killed many people.
She stood up, walked to Jing Rui and handed him Jing Zhis bill.
Jing Rui nced at her indifferently and said nothing. One of his men stepped forward and took the list of expenses, then followed Cao Jing to pay.
Jing Rui strode over to Jing Zhi and checked his body. After making sure that he was fine, he nodded at Han Feng.
Han Feng picked up the tall Jing Zhi and led him out.
Xiao mo had never seen anything like this. She was so scared that she did not dare to move. Seeing Jing Ruis cold eyes on her, she was so scared that her legs turned to jelly and she stuttered,Your brother, he ... He, he, hes drunk! I, I, I ... Hes taken advantage of me!
Jing Rui looked at the girl in front of him again. She was wearing a white shirt and a ck dress, and her hair was tied up in a ponytail. She did not have any makeup on, and her eyes were full of panic, as if she had done something wrong.
Her gentle and timid appearance was quite simr to Zheng yuluo.
Her younger brother only liked this type?
She would have to ask him properly when he woke up.
He could find a dozen girls like this for his brother!
After Jing Rui left with Jing Zhi and his men, Xiao Ling heaved a sigh of relief and fell onto the sofa.
She sobbed at Cao Jing.Sister Cao, I have to leave quickly. Working here, not only do I have to drink with you, but I might also have to pay with my life!
Jing Zhi woke up as soon as the cold wind touched his shoulder, but when he saw that it was the cold wind that was carrying him, he immediately rxed and closed his eyes to continue sleeping.
No matter where he was, the cold wind was carrying him, so his brother must be beside him!
Wherever his brother was, he could sleep and eat whenever he wanted. Life was the best!
Shuyin was having breakfast in the dining room when she saw Han Feng carrying Jing Zhi in. She looked at Jing Rui in confusion.What happened to Jing Zhi? Are you injured? Ill go take a look!
Chapter 1084
Chapter 1084: All good points
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin put down her spoon and was about to walk to Jing Zhis room.
Jing Rui grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
You cant treat his injuries.
Ah? Its that serious?
Its not serious,
What? Shuyin was confused.What kind of injury did he get?
Hurt love!
This ... Mm, youre right. I cant treat this injury. Id better eat! But, young master Jing, can you please let go of my hand? Im afraid I cant eat with one hand.
Jing Rui paused and then let go of her wrist, as if he had identally touched Shuyin.
Shuyin was confused. She had been suspecting that Jing Rui was interested in her. Otherwise, why would he touch her so often?
She shook her head lightly and felt that it was better for her not to overthink things.
Thinking about how Jing Zhi had been unconscious, Shuyin asked,Is he heartbroken?
Jing Rui washed his hands and sat down at the table. He hummed in agreement and started to eat.
How could this be? I didnt see him in a rtionship! If youre not in love, how can you be jilted?
Jing Rui did not say anything and continued to eat his breakfast. Shuyin suddenly understood.Oh, I know! Hes at odds with Zheng yuluo!
It seemed that Shuyin also knew that Jing Zhi liked Zheng yuluo.
Is he being very obvious?
What?
How do you know he likes Zheng yuluo?
Because he told Zheng yuluo that Im his girlfriend! Then Zheng yuluo was very sad and went to school to look for me. The general meaning was that she quit and let me be with Jing Zhi. Its such an obvious childish provocation. If I cant tell that he cares about Zheng yuluo, wouldnt I be too stupid?
Girlfriend?
Jing Ruis eyes turned cold. He had grown up and could even spout such nonsense!
To think that he had not slept the entire night and had been so busy for him, warning Zheng yuluo, and even going to the bar to pay for someones return!
When did Shuyin be his girlfriend?
If Jing Zhi hadnt been asleep, he would have dragged him over and punched him twice.
You dont have anything to do with ah Chi!
Jing Ruis voice was cold, but he was used to it. His coldness made no difference to Shuyin.
She was just a little confused,of course! How could I have a rtionship with him? Only Zheng yuluo would believe this. Who else would believe her? shes just confused because shes concerned.
Was it because he was concerned?
Perhaps, he was too!
When do you want to enter the school?
As soon as possible. I want to experience the atmosphere and environment of different universities. Can I start school tomorrow?
Sure, but I need your help with something.
Help?
Shuyin suspected that she had heard him wrong. Jing Rui didnt need anyones help in A city, did he?
Help ah Chi find a few girlfriends in school. Just find one with Zheng yuluos personality and temperament.
Ah?
Shuyin could not believe that Jing Rui would ask her to do such a thing!
Was she trying to find a substitute for Zheng yuluo for Jing Zhi?
This isnt good, is it?
Why not?
Its best if you dont interfere in their rtionship.
Shu Yin thought for a while, but still told her how she felt about Zheng yuluo,I think Zheng yuluo likes Jing Zhi, and they have a deep rtionship. Jing Zhi is in so much pain right now, so its not like he doesnt have feelings for her, right? They clearly like each other, why did they have to fight like this?
Jing Rui looked up at Shuyin and said after a while,Do you know how Chi got into the Virus Research Institute?
Shuyin didnt know, but she was smart enough to understand what Jing Rui meant.Is it rted to Zheng yuluo?
She and ah Chi were at loggerheads when they were young and often fought. She was the one who drugged ah Chi, tied him up with a rope, and sent him to the hands of the people in the Research Institute. He was controlled by the Research Institute and the killer organization. In order to save him, I changed my appearance and identity and found a substitute to deal with some small things in family Jing.
Jing Rui briefly told her about the past and said,Thest time, ah Chi was taken away again because of Zheng yuluo.
Shuyin knew about what had happened back then. She and Peter had even returned to the Research Institute to protect Jing Zhi.
Shu Yin never knew that Jing Zhi had been arrested because of Zheng yuluo!
If the two of them had so many grudges, it would be impossible for them to have pure love.
She finally understood why Jing Zhi had never been nice to Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhi hated the Research Institute to the core. Many people in the Research Institute had died at his hands. The fact that Zheng yuluo was still alive proved that Jing Zhi was very tolerant of her.
For a moment, Shuyin was speechless.
No wonder Zheng yuluo was so tolerant of Jing Zhi. She had no bottom line and let Jing Zhi bully her as he pleased. She never resisted or got angry.
She had thought that Zheng yuluo was born to be a good-tempered girl.
It turned out that she only treated Jing Zhi this way.
But Shuyin felt that Zheng yuluo was sincere towards Jing Zhi. There was only love in her eyes. In the future, there might not be anyone who would tolerate Jing Zhis temper as much as Zheng yuluo.
I cant help you find a body double for Jing Zhi. This isnt right!
Shuyin thought for a while and rejected Jing Ruis request.
Jing Rui raised his eyebrows slightly. No one else but Shuyin would dare to reject his request so directly and without caring about his face.
In the past, he liked to be in control of everything. He liked to control Shuyin as well and would not allow her to have any thoughts of being independent.
But now, he liked this Shu Yin.
She was independent, unaffected by his strong views, and would not blindly submit to him.
Firm, persistent, calm, intelligent.
Very good, all of them were good points.
Even if you dont help me find one, ah Chi wont becking in women. Im asking you to find one because I think the one you choose will be pretty good. I dont need to worry about it.
He admired Shuyins character, but that didnt mean he agreed with her actions.
Jing Rui only cared about his brothers feelings. He did not care if Zheng yuluo was the one who slept with him and helped him with his sexual needs.
As long as Jing Zhi didnt reject her, it was fine.
How about this? Ill talk to Zheng yuluo and ask her for her opinion. We cant make a decision for her so rashly, right?
Theres no need to ask, shes with someone else,
Impossible! Shu Yin didnt believe it. Thats impossible!
The way Zheng yuluo was looking at Jing Zhi didnt look like someone who would fall in love with someone else.
There must be a misunderstanding. Ill help you rify it. However, if I solve the problem, you two brothers will owe me a favor!
Chapter 1085
Chapter 1085: Ive always been alone
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui looked up at Shuyin.
There were stars twinkling in her clear eyes, and the calmness and confidence on her face made her look dazzling.
She was very, very beautiful.
Her skin was smooth, her eyes were bright, and her long ck hair was draped over her shoulders, shining like silk. She was wearing a loose V-neck casual wear, revealing her corbones, delicate and sexy, making people unable to take their eyes off her.
She was a little proud and stubborn, but to Jing Rui, these were not shorings at all. All these qualities were concentrated on Shuyin, which only made him feel that she was cute.
In fact, he knew that Shuyin became more and more rxed in front of him and more and more daring to throw tantrums because he indulged her.
In the past, Shuyin wasnt like this.
She was very respectful to him. Whether she liked it or not, she would strictly follow his instructions and would never refute him.
And now?
He knew that she was not afraid of him when he saw her begging him for a favor.
Jing Rui suddenly chuckled and asked her with great interest,What kind of favor do you want?
I havent thought about it yet. You and Jing Zhi owe each other. Ill tell you when Ive thought about it. Youre not allowed to go back on your word!
She sounded a little proud, but her voice was sweet and gentle, as if she was acting coquettishly with Jing Rui.
Okay, Ill do you a favor.
Regardless of whether the matter was settled or not, Jing Rui would do Shuyin a favor. As long as it was not too much, he would satisfy her.
Jing Rui asked Han Feng to take a few men with him and drive Shuyin to Zheng yuluos ce. He did not need protection in A city, but Shuyin did.
When Shu Yin arrived at the hospital and saw Zheng yuluo, she was very surprised.Yuluo, what happened to your arm?
Zheng yuluo was even more surprised than she was. Why are you in A city?
As soon as the question was asked, Zheng yuluo felt that it was a little inappropriate.
These words made it easy for others to think that she especially didnt want Shuyin toe to A city.
No, no, no, I mean I didnt expect to see you here! Arent you in North America? When did youe to A city?
Zheng yuluo was half-lying on the bed. She wanted to get up but was held down by Shuyin.
Dont move. You should lie down properly if youre injured. Anyway, you were also lying down when we first met.
Shu Yin teased with a smile on her face, and Zheng yuluo also smiled faintly.
How did you get this? Did you break your arm?
Shuyin was good at treating viral diseases and surgical wounds, but her research in the field of orthopedics was very shallow. She could only judge that Zheng yuluos arm was fractured, but she did not know the extent of the fracture and the cause.
The smile on Zheng yuluos face disappeared almost instantly. She bit her lip and said in a low voice,I fell down by ident.
Zheng yuluo was not good at lying, and Shu Yin had knowledge of psychology. She asked,Who injured you? Jing Zhi?
Zheng yuluos face turned pale and she fell silent.
Shuyin was furious.Its really him?!
Jing Rui didnt even tell her that Jing Zhi had broken her bone!
Fortunately, she did not ask Zheng yuluo about her rtionship with another man as soon as she came up!
However, Shu Yin was an outsider. As the saying goes, the onlooker sees the game more clearly than the onlooker. She quickly reacted and realized that Jing Zhi didnt hurt Zheng yuluo on purpose.
Yuluo, dont be sad. Ill be a little arrogant, but you know Jing Zhi less than I do. Im considered half his attending doctor, and Im usually the one who takes care of most of his daily life. You might not know this, but he cant control his strength when hes angry.
Shu Yin was afraid that her words would be misunderstood by Zheng yuluo, so she immediately exined,
Jing Zhi used to be a dangerous man to me. He was strong and had a deadly virus. Every time I got close to him, I had to be fully armed to avoid dying. Ive been taking care of him for more than two years, and Ive always been on tenterhooks. He doesnt like me either, so you dont have to doubt our rtionship.
Zheng yuluo was actually quite concerned about the rtionship between Shuyin and Jing Zhi.
Girls were selfish when it came to love. She wanted Jing Zhi to be hers alone.
Moreover, she felt that she had no chance of winning against Shuyin.
No matter how she looked at it, Shuyin was the more likable one.
As for her, other than causing trouble, she knew nothing else.
However, since Shuyin had already put it this way, Zheng yuluo knew that she had been too petty.
Yes, I know. You two are just good friends, she said softly with her head slightly lowered.
Zheng yuluo was sure that Shuyin didnt have any feelings for Jing Zhi, but she wasnt sure if Jing Zhi liked Shuyin.
She used her uninjured hand to pull Shuyin to sit down by her bed.
When did youe to A city? You shouldve told me so that I could give you a wee.
I just arrivedst night. I came back with Jing Rui and Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo was slightly stunned. Did Jing Zhi juste backst night?
Did that mean that he had been waiting for her at her house the moment he had returned?
Shuyin also guessed that Jing Zhi went to Zheng yuluos ce as soon as he got off the helicopter. The two of them must have been extremely unhappy when they met, otherwise they wouldnt have been so tense.
One of them was carried home half-dead, while the other was hospitalized with a broken arm.
Yuluo, you ... Do you have a boyfriend?
Zheng yuluo shook her head with a bitter smile.How could that be? Ive always been alone.
You like Jing Zhi?
Zheng yuluo hesitated. She did not know if she should nod or shake her head.
Since she didnt say anything, Shuyin took it as her silent consent. If she didnt like him, she would deny it without hesitation.
Then why did the two brothers think that youre with someone else? Shuyin was a little confused.
Zheng yuluo was stunned. How did Shuyin know about it?
Did Jing Zhi tell her? Or Jing Rui?
They all thought so, right?
Zheng yuluo felt a little bitter, but she did not want to be the scapegoat. She said softly,Last night, Jing Zhi saw me sitting in someone elses car and misunderstood. He almost beat her to death, and Ive been begging him not to do it, so he probably thinks I like someone else.
Lou Ziyi was picked up by the Lou family early in the morning. From the beginning to the end, no one from the Lou family spoke to her. They all looked at her with anger as if she had done something unforgivable.
She didnt know how the Lou family got the news. She and Lou Ziyi had not told anyone about this.
Lou Ziyi was still trying to hide the matter, but in the end, all the excuses he had were useless.
When his brother Lou Ziming came, he said,I know what happened. You dont have to say a word. Come home with me!
After that, she was left alone in the ward.

Chapter 1086: Im ugly, but I can ward off evil?
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin already knew what had happened, and she also understood why Jing Zhi had misunderstood.
She smiled and said to Zheng yuluo,Its like how you feel when you misunderstand my rtionship with Jing Zhi. Jing Zhi thinks youre with someone else, so hes jealous.
Zheng yuluo thought so too, but she wasnt sure if it was because Jing Zhi was jealous or because he wanted to control her.
She had no confidence in herself.
She had never dared to hope that Jing Zhi would treat her well.
Zheng yuluo gently touched her broken arm and said in a low voice,Shuyin, tell me about Jing Zhis past. Did he suffer a lot? You know, I used to be a very bad person. When I was little, I wanted Jing Zhi to disappear from this world, so I tied him up and gave him to human traffickers.
Shu Yin had heard about the past grudges between her and Jing Zhi from Jing Rui, but she was still surprised to hear it from Zheng yuluo.
This was because the Zheng yuluo in front of him gave people the feeling that she was a quiet and gentle little white rabbit. She did not look like she would harm anyone at all.
Her eyes were soft, her face was sharp, and her apple-like muscles were very full. One look and you could tell that she was a soft-hearted and easy to talk to.
It was said that ones appearance was determined by ones heart, and Zheng yuluos personality matched her appearance.
Shu Yin couldnt imagine what Zheng yuluo had been like in the past.
I only found outter that the person who took him away was even more vicious than a human trafficker. A person had just disappeared from my life. After I became sensible, I spent every day in suffering. I even tried tomit suicide, but I didnt seed ...
Ive been looking for him. I want to find him and say sorry to him. You might not believe it, but no matter how he treated me, I didnt hate him. He broke my bones, and I was quite sadst night. But today, I feel that if this kind of revenge can make him happy, Id rather break my bones.
I dont know how to make up for the pain hes suffered. Knowing that youve taken care of him for more than two years, Im actually very sad. Why was I not by his side when he was suffering? Im jealous of you, because I feel like Im especially uselesspared to you ...
Shuyin suddenly felt her heart grow heavy.
Zheng yuluos love was so humble!
Besides, she was suddenly unsure. She wasnt sure if Zheng yuluo was willing to give up everything because she liked Jing Zhi, or if she was so good to him because she felt guilty.
Jing Zhi probably had the same question in his heart.
Otherwise, he would not have immediately misunderstood Zheng yuluo when he saw her with another man.
Shuyin told him about Jing Zhis past at the Virus Research Institute. She had been there around the same time as Jing Zhi, so she knew exactly what he had been through.
She didnt know if guilt could turn into love, but at least Zheng yuluos heart would ache for Jing Zhi.
Those who had never been in the Research Institute would never understand how cruel they had been treated. Jing Zhi had every reason to hate Zheng yuluo.
Just like Shuyin herself, she hated her father who had sent her to the Research Institute.
How much hatred did he have?
He hated her so much that he wanted to tear her apart and destroy everything!
But her business was different from Jing Zhi s.
Zheng yuluo was too young at that time. Even thew had stipted that even if a child at such a young age killed someone, she did not need to bear criminal responsibility because she had not yet had the right view of right and wrong.
When Shuyin returned to Jing Ruis Vi, she was obviously in low spirits.
She sat on the sofa in the living room, her eyes a little empty, as if she had lost her soul.
Jing Rui came in and saw her standing still. He frowned.Whats wrong?
Zheng yuluo was really capable. Why did all those who went to her ce, regardless of gender,e back with a look of despair?
Shuyin raised her head slowly and faced the sunlight that shone in through the window. She said softly,Its nothing. Im just thinking if I was very annoying when I was young.
Thats why his parents sent him to that cannibal ce.
Jing Rui immediately guessed what she was thinking. Shuyin was not a sentimental person. She was rational and realistic. She would never be sad. Every time she showed her weakness, it was because of her parents.
Youre thinking too much! If youre full and have nothing to do, you can go to the kitchen to wash the vegetables and make lunch! Youre living with me, but you cant do anything other than being a depressed Lin Daiyu. However, Lin Daiyu is a beauty, and her mncholy is also pleasing to the eye. Your appearance is a hindrance, so dont follow her example!
Shuyins sadness and confusion disappeared when Jing Rui taunted her.
This persons mouth was too poisonous!
She was so angry that she wanted to stomp her feet. She stared at Jing Rui with her clear eyes. Im ugly? Theres a problem with your aesthetics! I think Im very good-looking, at least prettier than you! I think you just like aliens!
The expression on her face was lively, and her angry look was somewhat cute. She didnt have the lifeless feeling she had just now, and she looked like a real 18-year-old girl, full of youth and vitality.
Jing Rui still liked this kind of Shuyin.
Also, I didnt want to stay at your ce. You were the one who forced me to stay here! What, Im ugly, so I can ward off evil? Is that why you forced me to stay here? I dont care, I only care about guarding the house and warding off evil spirits. I dont care about being a maidservant and cooking for the young master!
She had a sharp tongue and was unwilling to suffer any losses.
Jing Rui smiled and rolled up his sleeves as he walked into the kitchen.
He was only joking when he asked Shuyin to make lunch. It was fine if she was the one holding the scalpel, but it was apletely different story if she was the one holding the vegetable knife!
Didnt he know if she could cook?
Shuyin stood on the sofa barefooted and stretched her neck to look into the kitchen.
She was very confused. Was Jing Rui going to cook lunch?
Did he know how to cook?
It didnt look like it!
Soon, the sound of vegetables being washed and cut could be heard from the kitchen, as well as the buzzing of the exhaust hood.
When a strong fragrance wafted out of the kitchen, Shu Yin finally couldnt hold it in anymore. She put on her slippers and ran to the kitchen.
The vis kitchen was huge and clean, with all kinds of kitchen supplies.
Jing Rui was wearing a white shirt and an apron. He was cutting the eggnts in front of the anvil.
There were also a few tes of chopped green onions, shredded ginger, and garlic slices.
She didnt know what kind of soup was boiling in the pot behind him, but the aroma almost made Shuyin drool!
You can actually cook?!
Shuyin was shocked. Big Boss could go to the main hall, cook in the kitchen, be an assassin, and y with political tactics. He was simply omnipotent!
It was perfect!
If he was so outstanding, how would others live?
Staying by his side for a long time would make people feel inferior and desperate!
Chapter 1087
Chapter 1087: Do you want me to feed you?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui did not raise his head and continued cutting the eggnt.
Im not good at cooking, I only cook asionally. There arent many people who cant cook nowadays, unless theyre especially stupid.
It was rare for him to be so humble, but not only did this humility not make Shuyin feel good about him, it made her hate him even more!
He was obviously good at cooking, but he insisted that she was average. Wasnt he trying to embarrass Shuyin, who didnt know anything?
Moreover, there were many people who didnt know how to cook now!
Other than the head chef, none of the people in the Research Institute knew how to cook!
However, Shuyins mental fortitude was strong, and she didnt mind beingughed at. She forced a smile on her face, her eyes curving into crescents.Boss, can you teach me how to make chicken wings? When I learn it, I can make it for you too!
Jing Rui put down the knife.Well, lets start with cutting the eggnt. You can try.
Ah?
Shuyins eyes widened, and she said, unconvinced,Im making chicken wings, why are you cutting eggnts?
What kind of logic was this!
She didnt like to eat eggnts!
If you dont cut it, you wont have anything to eat this afternoon.
Shuyin pouted, picked up the knife unwillingly, and mimicked Jing Ruis movements.
I dont like eggnts. I like chicken wings. Cant we make chicken wings?
You cant be picky.
Im not picky, as long as there are chicken wings, Im fine. I dont even have to eat rice, Im easy to raise!
This is called not being picky?
Other than chicken wings, she didnt eat anything else. She didnt even touch vegetables and the like. She was so picky!
Youre not afraid of getting fat?
Im scared, so I only eat chicken wings and nothing else. I heard that eating chicken wings is good for beauty and weight loss! Did you buy chicken wings today? Howe I didnt see it?
Jing Rui burst intoughter.
Ive never heard of anyone losing weight by eating chicken wings. Youre really lying!
He couldnt help but flick Shuyins smooth forehead and said with a smile,There are no chicken wings today, only eggnts!
His hand was wet and when it touched Shuyins forehead, it made her feel a little cold.
But it was a little intimate for them, and Jing Rui was not the kind of person to joke with others.
Shuyins face was slightly flushed.
She held her forehead and threw the knife away.Youre squeezing thebor force. You dont even give me food to eat. Im not cutting it anymore!
Jing Rui had always been a calm and collected person. He did not have a strong desire for Shuyin, especially when he could not see her. He did not miss her much.
However, when he was facing Shuyin, hearing her voice, seeing her expression, and feeling her breathing, his calmness and indifference would be easily broken by her.
His voice unconsciously carried a trace of gentleness.Im not trying to squeeze you, but you cant eat chicken wings every day. Eggnts are very nutritious and contain many vitamins. You need to eat more vegetables.
Shuyin felt a little overwhelmed. Was he concerned about her?
He even cared about how much vitamins she took in?
Jing Rui picked up a piece of tomato and brought it to Shuyins lips.Try it. The raw eggnt is also delicious.
Shuyin was bewitched by his gentleness. She opened her mouth and ate the eggnt.
Only when she swallowed it did she realize that she had eaten a raw eggnt!
This was crazy!
She never ate eggnts, let alone raw ones!
Her beauty was misleading!
Could raw eggnts be eaten? Would she have a stomach ache?
Jing Rui couldnt help but chuckle when he saw her silly look.
Youll eat raw eggnts when I feed you? Will we be able to eat raw chicken wings too?
His fingers gently brushed across Shuyins soft pink lips. The touch was so wonderful that he couldnt help but take a step forward and lower his head slightly, wanting to taste her beauty.
Shuyin was shocked. She covered her mouth and retreated in a hurry.What are you doing?
For the first time in his life, Jing Rui felt embarrassed. This word did not exist in his dictionary before.
He wanted to kiss her, but she rejected him.
He retracted his hand and looked at Shu Yin nonchntly. Then, he picked up a piece of tomato and put it in his mouth.
Well, raw eggnt tastes good too. Why dont we have raw eggnt for lunch today?
He wanted to cover up his embarrassment, but after eating a piece of eggnt, he felt that it tasted really good. The fresh eggnt was tender and a little sweet, which had a different vor.
He couldnt help but cut another slice of eggnt and put it in his mouth naturally.
Shuyin was dumbfounded!
Did Jing Rui take the wrong medicine today?
Not only did he want to kiss her, but he also wanted to eat raw eggnts!
Are you going to eat raw chicken wingster?
Shuyins mind was in a mess, and she couldnt tell if this was reality or a dream.
She ran out of the kitchen in a panic, ran into her bedroom, and then buried herself in the nket, as if this could calm her wildly beating heart.
That shouldnt be the case!
Why did Jing Rui want to kiss her?
Or did she misunderstand what Jing Rui meant?
However, why did she feel a little regretful for stepping back?
Jing Rui looked helpless as he watched Shuyin run away with her head down.
Did he scare her?
He had already slowed down his speed, but she was still on guard.
It didnt matter. He could take it slowly. He had plenty of time, and she was staying by his side anyway.
Jing Rui picked up the knife again and started to cut the vegetables. After some thought, he took the chicken wings out of the refrigerator, washed them, marinated them, and put them in the oven.
After the food was ready, Jing Zhi stretched his back and went downstairs, but Shuyin didn t.
When he saw his brother roll up his sleeves and personally carry the dishes to clean the kitchen, his jaw almost dropped in shock.Brother, why did you cook personally?
Jing Rui felt that he had to go to the bar to pick someone up because of Zheng yuluo, so he ignored him.
Jing Zhi was so touched that he almost cried.Brother, youre so good to me! Knowing that Ive fallen out of love, you actually personally cooked for me! Its worth it to have a brother like you in this life!
He confessed to Jing Rui in a loud voice,Brother, I love you! Ill love you forever!
Jing Ruis face darkened! Lets eat!
Oh, oh, oh, okay, Ill listen to you!
Shuyin was curled up on her bed. She didnt hear the first part of Jing Zhis sentence, but thest part of his sentence,I love you, was too loud and she heard it clearly.
She immediately burst outughing!
It was such a pity that she didnt get to see Jing Zhi confessing to Jing Rui in person. She should have gone down for dinner earlier!
She was so hungry, what should she do?
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and then Jing Ruis cold voice came,Lets go downstairs and eat eggnts!
Um ... Do you have chicken wings? Shu Yin asked weakly.
The bedroom door suddenly opened and Jing Rui walked in.Youre eating and living for free, and youre suffering from princess syndrome? Do you want me to feed you if I have to wake you up to eat?

Chapter 1088: Not even his girlfriend
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin was neither embarrassed nor angry when Jing Rui called her a Princess, because she knew that Jing Rui was just making fun of her and did not really want her to leave.
However, he actually said he would feed her?
Shuyins fair face turned red at the thought of Jing Ruis action. She had just realized how thick-skinned Jing Rui was.
She muttered shameless in a low voice as she got off the bed and put on her shoes.
She was afraid that Jing Rui would say something shocking if she did not go down for dinner.
She would take it seriously if it was so ambiguous!
Shuyin went to the dining room downstairs and saw that there were actually roasted chicken wings on the table. Her eyes immediately curved into crescents from smiling.
In the end, he still made her chicken wings.
Shuyin felt a little sweet inside. He said he wouldnt let her eat it, but he still did it.
His heart was not as cold as he looked on the surface.
Shuyin looked up at Jing Rui and saw that he looked calm, as if the chicken wings were not special treatment for her, but something he had made casually.
But Shuyin knew that he had made this especially for her.
Jing Zhi didnt notice the undercurrent between his brother and Shuyin at all. He looked at Shuyin and said,Little Shenshu, youve really benefited from my light today! All this food was made by my brother! In order tofort me, he personally cooked. Tell me, Where can I find such a good brother?
Shuyins expression was a little strange.
Jing Rui didnt cook today because Jing Zhi had fallen out of love.
Jing Zhi was overthinking things.
However, Shuyin didnt expose him. She cooperated and said to Jing Zhi,Thats right, your brother is the best brother in the world!
He should at least praise her for making so many delicious dishes.
Moreover, her words were not apliment, but the truth.
It was rare for her brother to be as good as Jing Rui. Even biological brothers might not be as good to Jing Zhi as he was.
Jing Zhi took a sip of the soup and pped his thigh in agreement. Youre absolutely right! The worlds best brother! Zhiyin! My brother has been amazing since he was young, theres nothing he cant do!
Jing Rui ate his food elegantly and turned a deaf ear to theirpliments, as if they were not talking about him.
He quickly ate and drank to his hearts content. He nced at the two people who were still singing praises to him and said indifferently,We cant waste any of the remaining food, we have to finish it all! The one who eats slowly will be in charge of washing the dishes today.
A bolt from the blue!
Wash the dishes?
NO!!
The tes and bowls on the table were as tall as half a person!
The two of them, who had been extremely intimate a moment ago, instantly shed all pretenses of cordiality.
Shuyin, Im heartbroken. Ill leave these bowls to you! Youre a girl, washing the dishes and whatnot is quite suitable for you!
Youre out of love, so you can wash the dishes to vent the depression in your chest! It was killing two birds with one stone! My leg was injured a few days ago and I cant stand steadily. What if I dont rest well and it leaves a root cause?
You dont need to use your legs to wash the dishes. You cant eat as fast as me. Youre going to lose!
You eat a lot, so of course you should work more! Youre a man, surely you wont bully a weak woman like me?
Jing Rui nodded in satisfaction, went upstairs to change his clothes, and drove out.
He had to make a trip home. His mother knew that he was back and had been nagging him.
The moment he entered the house, he was hugged by Shangguan ning. Then he heard her sobbing voice.Son, mom missed you so much!
Jing Rui held her and patted her back. He smiled and said,Yeah, I missed you too.
Shangguan ning smiled.Really?
Of course!
I thought you had forgotten about your mother after you married your wife! He came backst night, but he insisted on staying outside and refused toe back. He really cant stay!
Jing Rui let go of her helplessly.What are you thinking! I dont have a wife.
Although he was talking to Shangguan ning, he was looking at Jing Xi who was sitting in the living room, pretending to be an obedient child. The questioning look in his eyes was very obvious.
The little girl put her arms around Jing Yichens waist.Dad, brother is staring at me! Hes so fierce, Im scared!
Jing Yichen defended his daughter without any principles. Dont be afraid. He wont dare to re at you anymore. Wait for your father to teach him a lesson for you!
Jing Rui could only sigh. Jing Xi would not be afraid of him. Shes getting better and better at acting. She can already be an actor at such a young age.
Shangguan ning knew her daughter better than anyone else. She could tell that her daughter had done it on purpose.
She had no time to care about Jing Xi. She pulled Jing Rui to sit on the sofa and started to discuss the issue of a wife with him.
Son, why didnt you bring your wife home? I heard from your sister that shes pretty, smart, and has a good temper. Ive never seen her before!
Jing Rui knew that he would be betrayed by his sister.
He shook his head helplessly and said,thats not true! Mom, dont worry about this matter. I know what Im doing. Things havent even started. When everything is settled, Ill bring her to your house to see you.
She wasnt even his girlfriend, and he had rejected her when he wanted to kiss her yesterday. How could she be his wife?
This girl, Jing Xi, was a professional at deceiving her brother!
Its nothing, just treat it as bringing a friend to our house!
Shangguan ning had justined that her son had forgotten about his mother after marrying his wife, but now he had totally forgotten about it. She couldnt wait to see her daughter-inw.
Right, right, what does she like? Ill prepare it for her as a meeting gift! I heard from Xixi that shes an expert in viruses and gics? Youre so powerful at such a young age, youre quite a good match!
Jing Ruis heart softened as he listened to Shangguan nings words. He was so happy and satisfied.
His mother didnt ask him anything. She didnt ask about Shuyins family situation, nor did she ask about any other messy things. She didnt doubt his taste at all, and she didnt interfere with his love life at all.
As long as he liked it, his mother would support him.
He didnt n to let Shuyin meet his mother so soon, but he changed his mind now.
Shes living in Huayuan vi right now,he said with a smile.Jingzhis here too. You can go see her whenever you want. However, she didnt need any greeting gifts, and she didnt care about them. As long as you dont bring up the topic of daughter-inw, you two will definitely get along!
Of course we have to give you a gift! Youre a child and dont know anything. I followed you all the way back, so you have to treat me better!
Shangguan nings face was full of smiles. She finally understood that her son hadnt won her over yet.
No wonder he didnt bring it home!

In the end, Shuyin still had to wash the dishes.
Jing Zhi had no choice but to run away after he was full. He said that he had fallen out of love and wanted to find his Xiao Ling to heal his wounds.
Shuyin didnt know who Xiao Ling was, but she didnt need to guess to know that it was a girl. She probably wanted to try out a new rtionship.
She was so anxious that she wanted to call Jing Zhi back and tell him that Zheng yuluo had nothing to do with other men and that he had misunderstood.
But the more she shouted, the faster Jing Zhi ran. He was afraid that he would have to stay at home to wash the dishes.
He hated washing dishes the most! It was greasy and dirty, and he was a man. It was too embarrassing to wash the dishes!
In order to maintain his tall and imposing image, he was determined not to wash the dishes!
Shuyin stomped her foot in anger. She couldnt even talk to Jing Zhi properly!
How could Zheng yuluo like a bad guy like him? he was like a fresh flower stuck in the crack of a stone!
The wound on Shuyins leg was almost healed. Although she still wore a bandage every day, it was just to prevent the scar from growing. She could move freely, so washing the dishes was no problem.
Actually, washing dishes was a happy thing for her.
Jing Rui was cooking while she was washing the dishes. She had an inexplicable feeling.
Although washing the dishes was indeed a lot of work, Shuyin did not think it was a big deal when she thought about how Jing Rui worked even harder when he was cooking.
Shuyin was the only one in the spacious and luxurious vi. She wore a pair of rubber gloves, hummed a song lightly, and washed the dishes unhurriedly.
If only life could stop like this!
It was peaceful, quiet, warm, and simple.
There was no need to scheme against each other, no need to be on tenterhooks. No one schemed against her, and she did not need to scheme against anyone. She could live freely in the sun every day.
Shuyin had always yearned for such a life.
As expected, she still liked city A the most. Coming here, she always felt a special sense of security and even a sense of familiarity.
She was a little confused. Could it be that she had lived here when she was young?
She didnt feel like she had lost any of her memories. Could it be that the memory-erasing drug had actually taken effect, and she didnt even know about it?
He couldnt rule out this possibility.
However, Shuyin didnt care about her past. She had already made up her mind to forget about her past.
Was it important where he used to live?
It was not important.
The important thing was where she lived now and whether she was happy.
When Jing Rui came back in the evening, he saw Shuyin mopping the floor leisurely, humming a song.
She was wearing a loose rose-red loungewear, her long hair tied into a ponytail, hanging loosely behind her head. When she heard him walk in, she looked up and smiled. Youre back!
His tone was natural and familiar, as if he had said it many times, as if they had lived like this for many years.
She was like a little wife waiting for her husband toe home!
Jing Rui was lost in thought for a moment. Her bright smile was a little dazzling, and her clear voice could reach the bottom of his heart.
He walked to Shuyins side, raised his hand, and gently touched her hair. He said lightly,Yes, Im back. Why are you so diligent today? Your leg doesnt hurt anymore?
Shuyin couldnt get over it. Why did he change his strategy?
Didnt he always use an en to get rid of her in the past?
Jing Rui continued,stop mopping the floor. Go and read your books. The maid wille tomorrow. Let her do the cleaning. I wont pay her if you keep the house too clean and she has nothing to do.
There was a faint smile on his face, and his tone was a little teasing, but there was also an inexplicable intimacy.
Shuyin was a little confused. What was going on? Why did hee back like a different person after a trip?
She stared at Jing Ruis face and looked at him carefully. After confirming that it was him, she reached out her hand hesitantly and touched his forehead.Do you have a fever?
Her hand was so soft that it felt boneless. When it touched his forehead, it brought him a strange warmth.
Jing Rui took her hand and moved it from her forehead to her lips. He lowered his head and kissed it. Yes, I have a fever. My brain is not very clear. What should I do?
Shuyin was directly fixed in ce by him!
He, he, he ... Kissed her hand?
This was a basic etiquette in foreign countries. Men in the upper-ss society showed respect to women and did not represent any feelings.
However, this did not seem to be the case in China!
She suddenly felt that the back of her hand, which had been kissed by Jing Rui, was burning.
Did he know what he was doing? Do you know what you just said?
Shuyin subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back, but it didnt move after two tries.
Her face slowly turned as red as an Apple.
His heart was beating like a drum, his blood flow sped up, and his breathing quickened!
These instinctive reactions werepletely out of Shu Yins control!
She felt that Jing Rui was trying to seduce her.
This kind of temptation was too destructive. Her protective shell was shatteredyer byyer, and it directly hit her heart.
Jing Rui found it cute and interesting to see her face turn from white to red.
He reached out his other hand and pinched her smooth cheeks. He asked in a teasing tone,Why is your face red?
Shuyin couldnt take it anymore. She pulled back her hand and threw the mop at Jing Rui.I have a fever! She said through gritted teeth. Then, she ran upstairs.
Jing Rui chuckled when he saw her running away.
With her shy look, it didnt seem like she didnt have feelings for him, right?
He had only kissed the back of her hand and she had such a big reaction. What if he kissed other ces?
Brother, are you stupid?
Jing Ruis smile froze when he saw Jing Zhi suddenly appear behind him.
Youre the idiot! Get lost!
Tsk, tsk, tsk, big brother, I didnt know you were so easily satisfied! Sigh, poor thing. He only kissed her hand and it was as if he had lost his soul. What era was this? why did they kiss each others hands? they should just do it directly! Who cares, lets give birth to the child first. When she bes the childs mother, can she run away?
Jing Ruis face was dark. If looks could kill, Jing Zhi would have died a hundred times over.
He sneered,youre good! He wondered who was the one who was so noisyst night. One moment, he broke someones arm, the next moment, he crashed his car, the next moment, he jumped into the sea, and the next moment, he went to a bar to have a Kings meal! If youre so capable, why dont you turn her into the mother of your child?
Jing Zhi was agitated by his brothers words.I was just confusedst night, but Ive thought it through today. I dont care about her! There are plenty of grass in the world, so why should I hang myself on a tree? Im going to try other trees today!

Trantor: 549690339
The two brothers exposed each other, loved each other, and almost fought!
But when it came to having children, the two of them quickly realized a problem at the same time. Yingying and the others seemed to be infertile.
Jing Zhi was still young and couldnt fully understand the pain of not having children. He just felt that if he didnt have children in the future, he wouldnt be able to keep a womans heart and body by his side through children.
At least, the method of pregnancy before love would not work.
He scratched his head and asked hesitantly,Brother, can you give birth?
Jing Rui was both angry and amused.I am not a woman. How can I have a baby? he said.
Aiya, you know thats not what I meant! I mean, do you have a way to have children in the future? If you cant have children, Im afraid Shuyin wont like you!
Impossible! Jing Ruis face turned cold.
Why not? Jing Zhi asked. She loves children so much that she treats Xixi like her own daughter. Every time she sees other children, her motherly love will overflow. If you cant have children, shell have children with someone else!
She would dare!
Jing Rui was so angry that he wanted to throw his brother out of the vi onto the street.
Why didnt he say anything good? why did he only say things that could poke at people?
Get lost! Youre not allowed toe here anymore, go back to your own home!
I wont do it! Theres no one at home, Im alone. My parents are in North America, and my house is empty. Youre my brother, where else can I stay if not here?
Jing Zhi didnt want to go home. He liked to live with his brother.
Are you upset that Im disturbing you and Shuyin?
He seemed to be able to see through Jing Ruis heart. He said generously,Dont worry, Ill go out when you two are making out. I wont eavesdrop. But, big brother, when will you be able to be intimate with me? Im worried for you!
Jing Rui was so angry that he was fuming.
He didnt want to talk to this annoying little brother anymore, so he turned around and left.
But Jing Zhi was one step ahead of him and stopped him. He looked like he couldnt bear to see anyone and asked in a low voice,Brother, are you not good in that area? If it doesnt work, quickly get a doctor to take a look! We cant just let this matter go because shes embarrassed. In the future, if Shuyin cant feel the happiness of being a woman, shell find another man to feel it!
Jing Rui was on the verge of exploding. No man could stand being told that he could not do it!
Jing Zhi didnt seem to know that his brother was angry. He continued to say,I remember that you had a lot of moneyst time! Was it because the time was too short? Big brother, take off your pants, Ill help you take a look again! I ...
Before he could finish his sentence, he was punched in the face!
Aiya!
Jing Zhi didnt expect his brother to hit him. He shouted in pain,Brother, how can you hit me! Im doing this for you! How could you bite Lu Dongbin like a dog?!
Who are you calling a dog?
Cold wind!
Boss! Han Feng immediately entered the room.
Drag this eyesore out and throw him onto the street!
Han Feng was extremely unwilling, but he still braced himself and said,Yes!
What the hell is this!
The two brothers were just ying around, why did he have to get involved?
If Jing Zhiined about him after his brother and his eldest brother made up, he would be in trouble.
Second young master, Im sorry!
Han Feng picked Jing Zhi up and ran out of the room.
However, Han Feng was no match for Jing Zhi. Even if Jing Zhi was carried on Han Fengs shoulder, he could still beat Han Feng down in an instant.
Poor Han Feng. He had only taken a few steps before Jing Zhi threw him to the ground.
With a heavy plop, Han Feng groaned and could not get up.
Hanfeng, did I raise you to embarrass me?
Jing Ruis cold voice sounded above his head. He seemed to be very dissatisfied with him.
Han Feng felt bitter in his heart!
You two brothers are inhuman monsters, and Jing Zhi is the best among monsters. Who can beat him?
Even Jing Rui was not his match in a one-on-one fight.
Among the new killers, one was ranked first and the other was ranked second, and they both hid their strength. Although he was a National fighting champion, he was no match for them!
Go and receive your punishment. If you dont defeat your 200 men, youre not allowed to eat!
Jing Rui was not happy that his men were so weak. He ordered them sternly and went to the kitchen.
Jing Zhi squatted down in front of Han Feng with a smile after his brother left. He patted Han Fengs strong chest and said,Little Fengfeng, its no use having big pectoral muscles! Look at you, youve made my brother angry. I have to help you coax him. You owe me a big favor!
Han Feng almost vomited blood!
Who had provoked Jing Rui?
Han Feng ignored the main culprit. He endured the pain and climbed up from the floor, slowly walking out to receive his punishment.
Jing Zhi rubbed his nose and mumbled,Oh my, little Feng Feng is angry. But why is he getting more and more handsome? Hes about to surpass me, so shouldnt I break his face?
Han Feng was indeed very handsome, and because of his long-term exercise, his body proportions were very good. His handsomeness waspletely different from Jing Zhi s.
Jing Zhi had inherited Jing Yirans good looks, and he looked more like a pampered young master.
Han Feng, on the other hand, was the masculine type. He was calm and didnt talk much, giving people a feeling of stability and reliability.
Jing Zhi always thought that Han Feng was very popr with young girls.
If he had not followed Jing Rui, he could have be a star. He would have been very popr with his looks and skills.
Jing Rui entered the kitchen and saw the newly bought vegetables and fish, which made him feel a little better.
The ingredients that Han Feng had sent people to buy were very fresh and there was a wide variety of them. It was enough to eat.
Jing Zhi heard his brother busy in the kitchen and remembered that he had just offended him. He went into the kitchen and started to please his brother.
So much meat? Brother, what are you going to do? Ill help you!
No need, just disappear from my sight! Dont look anymore, theres no share for you in this meat!
Aiya, big brother, youre too stingy! You and Shuyin wont be able to finish all this meat. Ill help you finish it so it wont go to waste!
As Jing Zhi spoke, he cut a piece of sauced beef into thin slices and stuffed them into his mouth.
Han Feng knew that Jing Zhi loved beef, so he had ordered his men to buy cooked beef so that Jing Rui would not have to cook. He only needed to slice the beef into pieces and put them on a te.
Jing Zhi was eating beef and helping Jing Rui wash the vegetables.Im working, so you cant not give me dinner tonight!

Chapter 1091: Flirty
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin waspletely unaware of the two brothers ruckus downstairs.
She covered herself with the nket and was trying to calm her Restless Heart!
Even now, she could still feel the warmth on the back of her hand!
It was his lips, the unforgettable feeling that they left on the back of her hand.
Shuyin felt as if she was floating in the clouds. It was so unreal and so beautiful.
It took her a long time to calm her heart down.
She warned herself to treat the kiss as a normal kiss on the hand. In the West, such etiquette wasmon. If she misunderstood what Jing Rui meant, she would be asking for trouble.
Perhaps she should test him?
Shuyin was a little vexed. She had never been in a rtionship before, and she didnt care about this kind of thing at all in the past. She was in a dangerous situation and couldnt wait to save her life, so how could she be in the mood for sex?
Without love experience, she didnt know how to test him, and she couldnt tell the result.
She wrapped herself in a cocoon with the nket and was extremely conflicted.
When Jing Rui entered the bedroom, he saw that Shuyin had wrapped herself up tightly. He could not see anything except for a few strands of her long hair.
Are you trying to suffocate yourself to death?
When Shuyin heard his voice, she couldnt help but shiver. Then, she didnt move an inch and pretended to be dead under the nket.
She was so nervous that she could barely breathe when she heard Jing Rui approaching her.
She wasnt such a timid person in the past!
She had always been the kind of person who dared to face difficulties. She had excellent courage, refused to admit defeat, and dared to admit defeat.
What was going on today?
Why didnt he look like her anymore?
Jing Rui found it funny that Shuyin did not move.
This was too embarrassing. Fortunately, he didnte for something more exciting. Otherwise, she would definitely run far away.
Even so, he was still a little worried that Shuyin would want to leave this ce.
It had been like this when they were in North America. As long as he tried to get close to her, she would find a way to go back to the school.
She had been in North America for so long, why didnt she learn the openness of North American girls at all? Instead, she was even more conservative and shy than the girls in China.
However, he liked the easily shy Shuyin.
Under the influence of his parents, he was also a traditional person. He was used to being loyal to one person. He didnt like to change his mind and didnt like women who were too open-minded.
Shuyin, if you want to be a cocoon, shouldnt you at least return to your own room? You came to my room, ran to my bed, and wrapped yourself up like this. Are you trying to seduce me?
Shu Yin turned pale with fright!
His room?
That was impossible!
She hurriedly crawled out from under the nket, but she had curled herself up too tightly. She tried for a while, but she couldnt get out!
Shuyin was so anxious that she almost cried. The more she couldnt get out, the more anxious she was, but the more anxious she was, the more she couldnt get out!
Quickly help me, I cant get out!
Her voice was hurried, her tone was a little dissatisfied, and she sounded a little coquettish.
Even Shuyin did not realize that she treated Jing Rui differently.
If it was someone else, she would never have used such a tone to speak, nor would she have shown weakness.
Jing Rui had not helped her earlier because he had been waiting for her to ask for help.
He liked it when Shuyin admitted her mistake in front of him. He liked it when she admitted her mistake. It didnt matter if she admitted her mistake unwillingly. He just liked the feeling of being stronger than her and being able to protect her.
He chuckled as he pulled Shuyin out of the nket. Seeing the beads of sweat on her fair face, heughed at her.You finally came out? I thought youd eaten too many chicken wings and turned into an old hen, ready to hatch chicks in my nket!
Shuyin looked around and wished she could roll herself back into the nket!
She had really run into the wrong room!
Heavens! Let a bolt of lightning strike her to death!
How could she make such a low-level mistake? she didnt have the face to live!
Her room was next to Jing Rui s, and the decorations were almost the same, so she didnt even notice that she had entered the wrong room.
Shuyin hated herself to death!
What was she doing in the nket? if she hadnt rolled herself up, she would have realized that this wasnt her room after such a long time!
Wasnt this the legendary saying that one wouldnt die if they didnt seek death?
Shuyin could not care less about Jing Ruis taunting. She stood up and ran out without even putting on slippers.
But Jing Rui was faster than her.
When she reached the door, Jing Rui caught her and pressed her against the wall.
What are you running for? I eat people?
Dont touch me, let go!
Shuyin wanted to criticize him sternly, but the words that came out of her mouth didnt have any strength at all. Instead, they sounded like weak and delicate pouting.
Jing Rui was bewitched by her voice. Instead of letting her go, he pressed her against the wall.
The two of them were so close to each other that they could feel each others temperature and breath.
What are you doing in my room? Waiting for me here? If I had known, I would havee up here long ago.
Shuyin was so embarrassed and indignant that she almost bit her lips until they broke!
I ran into the wrong room. I thought this was my room. Y-y-you ... Dont misunderstand.
Yes, I know.
Shuyin raised her head abruptly and asked in surprise,You believe that I didnt do it on purpose?
I believe you. Ill believe whatever you say.
Why did these words sound so wrong?
It was like ... Flirting!
Shuyin lowered her head, blushing. Things had gone out of the way, and Jing Rui was bing more and more abnormal.
Where was her cold and arrogant Boss?
Dont be like this. I ... Im not feeling well.
Shuyin was pressed against the wall by Jing Rui. She couldnt move back or forward. She felt that she might as well be wrapped in the quilt.
At least, she did not need to feel Jing Ruis strong masculine scent or his strong heartbeat under the nket.
Why did you go to the wrong room?
Shuyin was speechless.
Was she supposed to say that she could no longer tell North, South, East, West, up, down, left, and right after he kissed the back of her hand?
Seeing that she did not answer, Jing Rui reached out to hold her soft hand and brought it to his lips. He kissed it again and saw her face turn red quickly. He asked her in a low voice,Just because of this?
His lips were soft and slightly cold. As they pressed against the back of Shu Yins hand, her heart beat like a drum.
Yinyin, I just kissed your hand. Arent you overreacting?
Shu Yin felt as if her breathing had stopped!
What did he just call her?
Yinyin?
Other than her parents, no one had ever called her that!
No, no, she couldnt call him that. She couldnt resist such an intimate way of addressing him!
Your heart is beating very fast. Its been a minute and your heart rate has reached 157. This wont do. If I go any faster, your heart wont be able to take it. How can I kiss you then?
Chapter 1092
Chapter 1092: It hurts a little, but its sweet
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Ruis voice was gentle and deep, like the most effective catalyst that made Shuyin lose herself.
Her heart was indeed beating too fast!
She suspected that her heart was going to explode the next second!
He still wanted to kiss her?
No, no, no, this wont do!
She would go crazy!
Her heart would jump out of her chest!
Jing Rui held her wrist and felt her pulse. He could feel her heartbeat, but he had no choice but to move away from her.
He felt that if he were to take another step forward, Shuyin might go into shock from her heart beating too fast.
He had never seen Shuyin so easily embarrassed. She was at a loss when he got a little closer to her.
I remember that you have a strong mind. Before cooperating with you, Peter even specially praised me for your mental fortitude, saying that it was unparalleled and that the lie detector would bepletely ineffective against you. You could even lie while maintaining a steady heartbeat below 80. Today, your heart rate was almost 180!
Jing Rui moved further away from Shuyin, and they were no longer leaning against each other. Shuyin finally felt a little morefortable, and her heart was no longer beating wildly.
However, his hand was still holding hers. The feeling of their skin touching each other was like electricity, making Shuyin feel numb all over.
Jing Rui was right. She had a strong mind. Not only did the lie detector not work on her, but all kinds of pressure and danger were also useless on her. She could make a calm and rational judgment in all kinds of dangerous situations.
She had never cried orined. She had relied on her own strength to be strong and fearless.
Her heart was beating so fast that it had exceeded her limits. She had never felt her heart beat so fast in her entire life!
No matter how strong her mental fortitude was, she would copse in front of Jing Rui.
Its not the same situation as before ...
Shuyin retorted in a low voice. Her bodys instinctive reaction waspletely out of her control. She didnt want to do this either. It was a little embarrassing.
Hmm, whats the situation now?
Jing Rui felt that Shuyins heart rate had dropped to 120. He felt at ease and touched the back of her hand. Then, he crossed his fingers with Shuyin s, making them look very intimate.
Then, he immediately noticed that Shuyins heart was beating faster.
He sighed softly and coaxed her. 120 is already fast enough. I cant go any faster. Yinyin, be good and rx. Otherwise, I wont dare to touch you.
When Shuyin heard his words, not only did her heart not slow down, it beat even faster!
Jing Rui felt both happy and helpless. He was afraid that Shuyins heart would beat too fast, so he let go of her hand and moved away from her by a centimeter.
Yinyin, theres only one reason why your heart is beating so fast.
He didnt say what the problem was. He gently kissed her on the forehead and then quickly moved away.
Shu Yin waspletely stunned!
She could not react to Jing Ruis change today.
She only knew that her face must bepletely red now!
Her heart was beating so fast that it was beyond normal. If this continued, she would go into shock and faint!
The atmosphere was still ambiguous when a head suddenly popped in from outside the door.
Brother, didnt youe to ask Shuyin to go down for dinner? Why did he start eating Shuyin? He would only have the strength to eat women after he was full! Come down quickly, Ive been waiting for you guys for so long! Most of the food was made by you, so Im embarrassed to eat it first!
Shuyin was shocked to see Jing Zhi. When she heard what he said, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
But Jing Rui wanted to throw this annoying brother out of the window on the second floor.
Its fine if you dont help, but why do you only know how to cause trouble!
It seemed that he was too free. She had to find him something to do tomorrow!
Disappear from my sight immediately!
Jing Ruis eyes seemed to be on fire, and Jing Zhi realized that he had interrupted his brothers happy time.
However, he was thick-skinned and didnt take it to heart. He smiled and said,Alright, alright, alright, Ill disappear! Im going to eat first, you guys continue!
Jing Zhi ran away as soon as he finished speaking, in case his brother hit him.
The right side of his face was swollen from his brothers punch, and it had only recovered a little after much difficulty. He couldnt take another beating!
He still wanted to use his face to hook up with the little girl and anger Zheng yuluo to death!
Jing Zhi disappeared from their world, and the romantic atmosphere dissipated a lot.
Shuyins heartbeat finally returned to normal. She stomped on Jing Ruis foot and scolded him in a low voice,Its all your fault, youre not a good person!
Jing Rui gasped and said,you really stepped on it! Are you going to cripple me?
Shuyin ignored him and took the chance when he moved back a little to escape.
Jing Rui smiled and walked out.
Her feet hurt a little, but she felt sweet inside. It felt good.
He went downstairs and saw that Shuyin didnte down to eat at all. He could only shake his head helplessly.
He knew that she would be too embarrassed toe down for dinner.
He was too thin-skinned!
Jing Zhi, on the other hand, sat at the table and gobbled up his food. He looked like he was enjoying the food.
Jing Rui was furious when he saw him.
Shuyin was already embarrassed to begin with, and Jing Zhis involvement made her even more embarrassed.
One should not be afraid of a god-like opponent, but of a pig-like teammate!
Jing Rui took the dishes away and stopped Jing Zhi from eating. Jing Zhi shouted,Brother, why did you take the dishes away? I havent eaten those dishes yet. Bring them over and Ill help you try them! You cant leave all the good food for Shuyin. Ive already left the chicken wings for her. How can you take the other dishes? Thats not fair, Im your real brother!
Jing Rui took the dishes away, sat down and started to eat.
Chi, from tomorrow onwards, Ill leave Xixi in your care.
Ah? Brother, I refuse! Ill be yed to death by our sister. Dont you know that Im not smart enough?
He was quite intelligent when he was sabotaging the ce just now!
Jing Rui was unmoved. He took a sip of the soup and said,I refuse your rejection. Xixi will start school tomorrow. Youll be in charge of sending her to school and protecting her. Dont worry, Xixi is very obedient at school and never causes trouble. Shes a good girl who loves to learn!
Really? Jing Zhi was suspicious.
Did she cause trouble when she was studying in North America?
Uh ... No, I didn t.
Its settled then. Ill give Xixis teachers and the principal your contact information. As her brother, you have tomunicate with the teachers as soon as possible, understand?
Jing Zhi was a little confused and uneasy.
Why did he feel that something was wrong?
He had clearly ruined his brothers ns. Just now, his brother was still very angry. How did he be so nice in the blink of an eye?
Did he fall into the pit that his brother had dug for him?
Chapter 1093
Chapter 1093: Smash this bar
Trantor: 549690339
After dinner, Jing Zhi drove to the bar hed been to the night before to look for Xiao Ling, the waitress.
During the day, he had actually gone to look for her once, but the bar was not open during the day and he could not find Xiao Ling. Thus, he went to university of X to look for her personally.
He did not believe that he could not find a woman if Zheng yuluo could find a man!
It was hard to find a three-legged toad these days, but there were plenty of two-legged women!
As long as one had money, even the most beautiful and elegant female star would deliberately dress up to apany you for dinner and even try to marry you.
When Liao Wei was Jing Ruis body double, many pretty female stars had tried to get close to him.
Family Jings assets were worth hundreds of billions of Yuan and they were a real rich family. If she married Jing Rui, she could not only be a richdy but also make use of family Jings huge resources to be a star in acting.
Jing Zhi thought that he could try dating a female star.
Moreover, he had to be with a popr and very popr female celebrity. Otherwise, it would not be enough to prove his charm, nor would it be enough to prove how blind Zheng yuluo was for not liking him!
Family Jing had a mediapany anyway, so they had signed many female stars.
The bar opened at eighto clock in the evening, but there were very few customers at this time. When Jing Zhi walked in, the bar, which had been so livelyst night, was only illuminated by neon lights and music. It seemed a little quiet.
Jing Zhi walked to the bar counter and asked a waiter with heavy makeup, Wheres Xiao Ling? What time does she start work?
Oh, her? I heard that she made a huge sum of money yesterday and quit.
The waitresss eyes were red with jealousy. She had taken a break yesterday, and the new Xiao Ling had taken her ce for the whole night. In the end, she had earned more than 10000 Yuan. This money seemed to have fallen from the sky, more than what she had earned in a month!
Jing Zhi frowned,quit? Because youve earned money?
Yup! I heard that there was a big clientst night who drank more than 100000 Yuan worth of wine. She took 10% of the Commission, which is not 10000 Yuan! After making a fortune, he left! Handsome, have you taken a fancy to Xiao Ling?
Jing Zhis frown deepened. If he remembered correctly, he was the big client.
He ran away after earning arge sum of money from him?
How could there be such a good thing in the world!
All of them were looking down on him. It seemed like no one took him seriously!
Yes, Ive taken a fancy to her. Give me her address and phone number!
Hey, handsome, dont make things difficult for me. Im just a waitress, how would I know her address and phone number? When our manageres, you can ask her yourself!
Jing Zhis lips curved into a cold smile and his beautiful eyes were cold.I want her address and phone number in three minutes. Otherwise, Ill smash this bar!
As he spoke, he swept the row of goblets on the bar counter, and then there was a shrill sound of ss shattering.
The waiter was shocked!
She had been working in this bar for more than half a year and had never seen anyone cause trouble!
The bars background was very strong, and almost no one dared to be arrogant.
Are you looking for trouble? If you continue to make a scene, you wont be able to walk out today! We have people in the Public Security Bureau. If you want to go to jail, then go ahead and make a scene!
After the waiter got over his shock, he immediately jumped up and cursed.
The boss had said that no matter what happened, he could settle it. Just be a little arrogant and dont be a yes-man.
Jing Zhi sneered. Public Security Bureau?
The current director of the Public Security Bureau of A city was Zheng Jing, the Father of Zheng yuluo.
They dared to arrest him and put him in jail?
Then Zheng Jings position as the director of the Public Security Bureau hade to an end.
Jing Zhi had been worried that he wouldnt be able to find a reason to cause trouble for the Zheng family, but the waitress had given him a great idea.
Five minutester, there was not a single intact cup in the entire bar!
All kinds of expensive and cheap wine were smashed by Jing Zhi on the floor.
He took out a lighter and lit a blue me. Heughed wildly.Call the police! Get someone to catch me! Dont you have people in the Public Security Bureau? Come, let me see whos the one whos getting paid by the country to be your backer!
Jing Zhi didnt even need to say anything. The waitress was already scared out of her wits. She called the manager with trembling fingers and even called the police.
The waiter knew that he had encountered a tough one today!
She was done for. The bar was smashed because she had angered the other party with her insolence!
Even if she could recover all the losses in the future and send this person to jail, she would definitely be fired!
Its all that Xiao Lings fault!
She had run away with her own money and caused her to clean up the mess for her!
When Cao Jing received the call from the waiter, she really wanted to p the waiter to death!
Even she herself would usually smile at her guests and would not go against them unless it was absolutely necessary. Although she had a strong background, there were still people in A city that she did not dare to provoke.
Even if it was something that the person behind her could settle, it would still require the mobilization of resources. It was impossible for her to not spend a single cent.
Was it that easy to bribe people from the Public Security Bureau?
What an idiot!
He had been in this line of work for so long, but he still didnt understand the twists and turns. No wonder he could only be a waiter!
However, it was impossible for Cao Jing not to call the police after such a thing happened.
Just because he did not provide Xiao Lings address and contact information, he destroyed her shop without a word. Of course, she could not take this lying down.
It was necessary to call the police, and they had to make use of their connections in the Public Security Bureau to make the other party suffer more and make him remember. At the same time, they would also knock on the mountain and warn the Tiger. In the future, if anyone dared to cause trouble, they would have to think twice.
Jing Zhi was handcuffed as he had wished. The police car made its way to the police station without a hitch.
Cao Jing and the receptionist naturally entered the police station together.
Cao Jing recognized Jing Zhi at a nce. Her heart skipped a beat, and she felt that something bad was going to happen.
It wasnt because she thought that Jing Zhi was very capable, but because the person who had picked Jing Zhi up yesterday was mysterious, cold, ostentatious, and had spent money without even blinking an eye.
She prayed in her heart, hoping that the person behind her was strong enough. Otherwise, she would be done for today!
The three of them entered the police station and began to take their statements separately.
Name?
Jing Zhi,
Age?
Eighteen years old.
Family living ...
An old police officer suddenly stopped in the middle of his sentence!
Whats your name?he asked with a frown.
Jing Zhi, are you deaf?
Your surname is Jing?
Jing Zhi started to m his hands on the table.Switch! When youre old and deaf, retire and go home to walk your dog! Whats the point of staying here!
Chapter 1094
Chapter 1094: Do you want to sleep with me tonight?
Trantor: 549690339
There were only two kinds of people who could be so arrogant in the police station.
One was those who were tired of living, and the other was those who had strong backing and were not afraid of trouble.
The senior police officer had been a police officer for so many years, and he had long trained a pair of sharp eyes.
Jing Zhi didnt look like an easy person to deal with. He had an aura that many police officers didnt have. He was dressed in luxurious clothes and was from luxury brands. He wasnt an ordinary person.
In A city, family Jing was the only family with the surname Jing and was also famous.
He wasnt sure if Jing Zhi was a member of the Jing family, but it wasnt a problem for him.
He put down his pen and immediately logged into the police departments internal system to check.
He typed in Jing Zhis name and asked for his ID number. A dialog box popped up on the webpage.
[You do not have enough authority. Please use a higher authority to view this persons information.]
When the senior police officer saw this, ayer of sweat immediately appeared on his forehead!
Because it meant that the probability of Jing Zhi being a member of the Jing family was 90%!
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked tentatively,Mr ... Jing, who else is in your family?
Jing Zhi smiled coldly.
He had hoped that the people in the police station would not care about the consequences and beat him up first!
Didnt they say that there was someone in the Bureau?
Why didnt she use her connections to torment him?
Did Zheng Jing manage the police station of A city so well?
Jing Zhi was very unhappy that he hadnt been beaten up. He had wanted to make! Scene at the police station!
Jing Zhi crossed his legs and said coldly,I still have my parents and my brother. You can call my brother. He wille here to protect me. However, Ill say this first, I didnt do anything, Im innocent! The people at the bar are deliberately ckmailing us!
When he smashed the bar, no one else saw it except for the only waiter in the bar.
At that time, the other waiters had not started work yet, and the guests had not arrived, so there was only one witness.
He would not be able to do anything to him for a while if he refused to admit it.
However, the bar was just as the waiter had said. Jing Zhi was locked up after a short while.
Because it was a direct order from the higher-ups, the old policeman couldnt do anything about it, even if he thought Jing Zhi was a member of the Jing family.
He could only try his best to provide Jing Zhi with a good environment so that he wouldnt suffer. He didnt want to offend family Jing and end up having to retire and walk his dog at home.
Jing Rui had already received the news when Jing Zhi was taken away by the police.
He didnt need to think to know that Jing Zhi was trying to make a scene. Otherwise, the police wouldnt have been able to take him away. With all the police in A city on standby, he would have been able to escape without a problem.
Furthermore, as long as he revealed his true identity, no one in the entire A city would dare to make things difficult for him.
So Jing Rui was not worried about Jing Zhi at all.
What he was more worried about now was that Shuyin hadnt had dinner. It was already past 10 pm, so she must be famished.
Just as he was thinking, he heard a slight noise from downstairs.
Jing Rui opened the door quietly and saw Shuyin sneaking into the kitchen and looking for food in the refrigerator.
He couldnt help but want tough. They finally came out to eat!
Shuyin thought that Jing Rui had fallen asleep upstairs and had no idea that Jing Rui had seen her eating the chicken wings.
She looked at the vegetables and chicken wings wrapped in a film in the refrigerator and couldnt help but feel lucky. Fortunately, there was so much food left for dinner and so were the chicken wings. Otherwise, she would have to eat raw eggnt to fill her stomach!
Jing Rui did not have the habit of eating snacks, so he could not find chips or biscuits in the vi.
She was famished, one chicken wing in each hand. Even though it was already cold, she still ate it deliciously.
Shuyin didnt know that Jing Rui had saved the rest of the food for her.
After eating and drinking to her hearts content, Shuyin finally felt that her life wasplete!
She didnt eat any of the dishes, but she finished the entire te of chicken wings.
She washed her hands, pinched her face, and muttered to herself,Have I gained weight recently? Why does it feel like your face has gotten bigger?
Shuyin was a little troubled. Would she really need to eat more vegetables in the future, like Jing Rui said?
PEI, PEI, PEI, why was she thinking of him again!
Im going to school tomorrow and Ill live in the school dormitory. Im determined not to live with him anymore!
Not only would it be easy to lose her virginity, but it would also be easy for him to steal her heart.
Shuyin forced herself not to think about him. She quietly went upstairs and returned to her room.
Eh? Did I turn off the lights in the room when I went out?
The room was pitch ck, and Shuyin couldnt help but be suspicious. But she clearly remembered that she didnt turn off the lights!
She turned on the light suspiciously and was shocked to find that Jing Rui was lying on her bed.
You, you, you ... Why are you here?
Jing Rui was lying on the bed with a thin nket over him. He said calmly,This is my room. Where should I be if not here? As for you, its sote, are you here to sleep with me?
Ah!
Shuyin shrieked and immediately walked out.Im sorry, Im sorry, I went to the wrong room again! Ill go out now!
She quickly left the room and went to the next room.
However, halfway through, she suddenly felt that something was wrong!
Shuyin took a closer look. The room she had juste out of was clearly the first room next to the stairs!
This was her room!
The second room was Jing Rui s.
She had been deceived by him!
Shuyin stomped her feet in anger. She pushed open the door to her room and strode in. Whats wrong with you, Jing? This is my room!
Oh? Is that so?
Jing Rui stood up and looked around. He said calmly,Oh, so I entered the wrong room.
That calmness and calmness seemed to be saying that the moonlight was not bad tonight!
He was only wearing a pair of navy blue silk pajama pants. His upper body was bare, revealing his strong and muscr chest, as well as his long and well-proportioned arms.
His hands were in the pockets of his pajama pants as he walked towards Shuyin.
Shuyin had seen many men with their upper bodies bare, but she had never felt anything before. But today, she did not dare to look at Jing Rui.
He was too sexy!
That kind of seduction was not something an inexperienced girl like her could resist!
It was so strange. She didnt have such a strong feeling when she treated Jing Ruis burn at family MUs Hospital.
At that time, she even dared to take off his pants!
Why was her heart about to jump out of her chest when she saw his upper body?
Seeing Jing Rui approaching her, Shuyin took a step back.
But Jing Rui pulled her back and said in a low and flirtatious tone,Yinyin, do you want to sleep with me tonight?

Chapter 1095: Are you thinking about me?
Trantor: 549690339
Shu Yins wrist was grabbed by him, and she felt like she was wrapped in a ball of fire. All the blood in her body was boiling!
She tried her best to control herself and not let herself get too close to him.
Im not staying here anymore, Im moving out tonight!
Even though she tried her best to appear cold, her red face, lowered head, and weak voice made people think that she was acting coquettishly.
Why do you want to move? Have I treated you badly by staying here?
Jing Rui asked despite knowing the answer. He wrapped his big hand around Shuyins small hand and squeezed it gently.
Shuyin hurriedly tried to pull her hand out, but no matter how hard she tried, she didnt seed.
Let go, I want to go ...
She was not used to Jing Rui being like this.
She would rather that Jing Rui was still the cold and ruthless Big Boss.
Hearing that Shuyin insisted on leaving, Jing Rui leaned closer to her and said in a low voice,Where else can you go? You want to live in school? Oh, you dont have to think about this anymore. Ive already said that the principal of University of X is my aunt. Its just a matter of my words not to assign you to a dormitory.
He was too close to her. When he spoke, his hot breath blew onto Shuyins ear, causing her ears to turn pink.
For a moment, she felt weak all over and wanted to lean on Jing Rui.
Fortunately, she was still rational and was not the kind of woman who would be easily seduced by beautiful men.
Then Ill live somewhere else. I have money and can buy my own house to live in. Let me go, Im not staying here anymore.
You can choose any room in the vi, and I even personally cooked for you. Is this how you repay me? How did the chicken wings taste? Does it taste good even if its cold?
Shuyin was stunned. He actually knew that she had stolen chicken wings!
Her face was burning, as if she had been caught doing something shameful.
She pushed Jing Rui away in anger.Get out, this is my room! Youre not allowed toe in without my permission!
She stopped talking about moving out and only drove Jing Rui out, otherwise they would be entangled forever.
Jing Rui just smiled and let go of her hand. He said,You can only stay at my ce. I dont feel at ease if you stay anywhere else. Also, youre not allowed to skip meals next time. You werent afraid of me in the past, so why are you so afraid of me now that you dont even want to eat?
Shuyin kept silent and pushed Jing Rui away.
Jing Rui did not resist. He let her push his chest with her soft hands until they were out of the door.
The door was mmed shut, and Jing Rui smiled bitterly.
He might have been a little too anxious. It would not be worth it if he scared her away.
It was all his mothers and sisters fault for calling him your wife so many times. When he saw Shuyin again, he subconsciously really treated her as his wife.
He knew Shuyin too well. She wasnt the kind of girl who would obey if you forced her. She was the kind of person who would resist more intensely the stronger the force was.
He had to keep a close eye on her for the next two days in case she ran away again.
Shuyin nervously locked the door from the inside, then let out a long sigh of relief. She leaned against the door and slowly sat on the ground.
She was flustered, uneasy, and at a loss.
However, she could not deny that she was happy.
He was the only person she trusted unconditionally in this world.
He was so outstanding, so extraordinary.
He used to be handsome and powerful, but now, he was gentle and attentive.
No woman could remain unmoved in front of such a man.
She was a woman, and a girl who had no experience in rtionships. She was moved.
Perhaps, she had long been tempted, but she had been bitterly suppressing it.
Because she did not dare to love.
She was a person with a lot of self-control. She did not dare to hope for love, as it was an extremely luxurious thing.
The best and most long-term rtionship with Jing Rui was not a couple, but friends.
And Jing Ruis behavior could not have been more obvious. He did not want to be friends with her.
That night, Shuyin couldnt sleep.
She kept her eyes open until dawn, and Jing Rui was all she could think about.
Love came too quickly, like a tornado.
She wanted to escape from the tornado, but she had her own thoughts and did not listen to hermand at all.
Shuyin touched her forehead gently. The warmth of his lips seemed to still linger on it. It was so beautiful that she could almost draw out his perfect lips.
A crisp sound came from the door, and then the figure that had been active in her mind the whole night walked in.
Yinyin, its time to get up.
Shuyin sat up immediately.How did you get in? Ive already locked the door!
Jing Rui waved the key in his hand.This door can be opened from the outside, didnt you know?
As he spoke, he sat down beside Shuyins bed, not having any intention of avoiding her.
Shuyin extended her hand towards him.Give me the key. This is my room. Why are you keeping the key?
Although she looked calm, she was cursing Jing Rui in her heart.
He actually had the key!
Wouldnt that mean he coulde in whenever he wanted?
Fortunately, she was used to wearing tight clothes when she slept!
Jing Rui put the key in his pocket and held Shuyins hand, rubbing the back of her hand with his thumb.
Yes, youre recovering well. My previous efforts were not wasted. Theres no scar at all, and youre very beautiful.
Her hands were indeed beautiful, slender, fair, and soft, like a priceless piece of art. Jing Rui could not help but y with them.
Shuyin only realized now that Jing Rui had already fallen for her then!
No wonder he was so serious about applying the ointment for her every day. No wonder she felt a little weird at that time.
Shuyins heart was beating very fast. She had never been so intimate with a man before. Jing Ruis fingers touched the back of her hand as if they were electrified, causing waves of numbness.
She pulled her hand back and hid it under the nket, not willing to take it out again.
Jing Rui looked at her carefully and said,You didnt sleepst night?
Even though it was a question, his tone was certain.
Shuyin didnt answer. She just lowered her eyes. Her long eyshes trembled slightly, betraying her turbulent emotions.
Jing Rui moved forward, his chest almost touching Shuyin s, and said in a low voice,Are you thinking of me?
Shu Yin raised her head in a panic. No!
Then why didnt you sleep all night? Youre thinking of how to escape from me?
Shuyin had actually thought about this before, but she still denied it. No, I didn t!

Chapter 1096: I have no regrets
Trantor: 549690339
You answered these two questions too quickly. Yinyin, youve studied psychology. What does this mean?
It meant that she was lying!
Shuyin felt depressed that he had seen through her.
She rarely made such low-level mistakes in front of others. Her IQ was higher than most people, so it wasmon for her to crush others.
Unfortunately, Jing Rui was not one of them. He had always been smarter than her.
Really, why was he so smart!
Jing Rui suddenly hugged Shuyin. He held her waist with one hand and caressed her back with the other.Yinyin, dont run away, understand? The people I want have never been able to escape. If you run away, Ill punish you.
Shu Yin eximed in a low voice, embarrassed and angry,Are you crazy? Quickly let go!
Her entire body tensed up when her chest was attacked!
Her heart was about to stop!
He had never held a womans body before.
It was his first time trying it, and it was so wonderful that he was a little addicted.
Jing Rui lowered his head and tried to find Shu Yins lips to kiss her.
Shuyin immediately covered her face with her hands, and his lipsnded gently on the back of her hand.
Yinyin, let go and look at me.
Shuyin was unmoved. She still covered her face with her hands and didnt dare to open her eyes.
You let me go! Didnt you always say that Im too small? Why are you still touching me when Im so young? go and find a football-sized one!
His words sounded sour, as if he was jealous.
Jing Ruiughed.
His hand slowly reached into Shuyins pajamas.
Dont be like this ...
Yinyin, are you jealous? Im just joking, how can you take it seriously, stupid girl!
Jing Rui could not kiss Shuyins lips, so he started to kiss her slender fingers.
I kind of want to eat you, what should I do?
Shuyin could not resist his kiss. She leaned into Jing Ruis arms and pleaded,Dont touch me, okay? I still have to go to schoolter, so lets take it slow. These few days have been too fast, Im a little panicked ...
Jing Rui got excited and asked her gently,Yinyin, youre willing?
Shuyin thought to herself, Ive never been unwilling ...
When she was still in the Research Institute, before she had even seen him, she had already fallen for him just by hearing a few words from him from time to time!
It was just that she had been lying to herself all this time.
Jing Rui took his hands out of her clothes and put them around her. He whispered in her ear,Yinyin, no matter what happens in the future, you cant regret it, understand?
Shuyin didnt understand the meaning behind his words, and she would never have thought that her father would die at Jing Ruis hands.
She just felt very happy and very sweet.
She loved his embrace, his voice, his gentleness, and everything about him!
I dont regret it, she nodded her head lightly.
Shuyin was extremely embarrassed. She had a boyfriend in just one day. It was magical and blissful.
She reached out and wrapped her arms around Jing Ruis waist. She buried her face in Jing Ruis chest and listened to his strong heartbeat. It felt so calm.
She knew that he was a very responsible and strategic man. With his protection, no storm would be able to hurt her.
Girls loved to hearpliments, and Shuyin was no exception. She asked in a small voice,Youll protect me in the future, right?
Jing Rui held the shy and gentle woman in his arms tightly and said seriously,Yes, Ill protect you forever. Believe me, Yinyin, Ill let you live the life you like. Youre never allowed to run away.
This was a decision made a long time ago, but the reason for this decision waspletely different from now.
In the past, he was forced to protect Shuyin.
But now, he was cherishing and loving her in his heart.
When he was dealing with Shucheng mountain, Jing Rui had never expected that he would fall in love with Shuyin.
When Shu Chengshan asked him to marry Shu Yin to hypnotize Jing Zhi, he had rejected him with disdain.
The tables had turned. He had made Shucheng Shan so miserable that he had to choose tomit suicide. In the end, he still fell into the hands of Shucheng Shans daughter.
If Shucheng mountain knew about this in the underworld, he didnt know how proud he would be.
Shuyin did not know anything. She was immersed in Jing Ruis firm promise.
She did not trust anyone else, not even Peter, whom she had worked with for many years. But she believed in Jing Ruis words.
He was a man of his word. Although he was cruel and cold, and although many people were afraid of him, Shuyin had never been afraid of him. He wasnt really a heartless person.
As long as she could enter his heart, he would never abandon her.
Shuyin didnt know how she had caught Jing Ruis eye. She felt that she couldnt be more ordinary. She didnt have a good family background, nor was she powerful enough. She had suffered a lot in the past, so she wasnt ady from a big family.
The only thing about her that could make peoples eyes light up was perhaps her appearance.
But she knew that Jing Rui was not the kind of person who judged people by their looks. Beauty was basically zero temptation to him.
Otherwise, Zishan would not have lost so badly when she pursued Jing Rui.
Zishan was already beautiful enough, and she had a good figure. Her skills were beyond the reach of other girls.
But Jing Rui did not fall for her.
Shuyin couldnt help but smile. Why did she feel that he was perfect in every way?
Jing Rui could clearly feel her joy as he held her in his arms. He also noticed that she was leaning into his arms.
He lowered his head and gently kissed her smooth forehead. He could feel her obvious trembling and could not help but chuckle.
She was still too sensitive!
At such a close distance, he could feel that her heart was beating very, very fast. It was so fast that even his heart was beating faster with it.
Yinyin, can you not go to school today? Stay at home with me.
No, I want to go to school. Im only 18, I have to study hard and not fall in love at such a young age.
Jing Rui felt a little helpless. He didnt want to be separated from Shuyin for even a minute, but she didnt want to get into a rtionship?
Chapter 1097
Chapter 1097: Not a single serious word
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin didnt want to be separated from Jing Rui either, but she felt that if this continued, she would lose herst bit of rationality.
She was too fond of his embrace!
Didnt you promise me to take it slow? Youre not allowed to go back on your word!
Shuyin raised her head and stared at Jing Rui with her bright eyes. The moment he lowered his head and was about to kiss her, she immediately escaped from his arms and ran out of the room with a smile. She went to the bathroom to wash up.
She didnt sleep all night, but she was full of energy and showed no signs of fatigue.
She looked at herself in the mirror. Her face was red, her eyes were like waves, and her expression was happy. One look and one could tell that she was a crazy girl in love!
Shuyin sshed some cold water on her face, trying to cool herself down. But when she looked up, her face was still as bright as the morning sun in the mirror, and she couldnt hide the smile on her lips.
Was she really in love?
So fast!
Her first love, and she was also his first love. It was so beautiful that Shuyin felt unreal and even a little uneasy.
However, she quickly threw that trace of uneasiness to the back of her mind.
She had not forgotten that Jing Rui had been protecting her.
At that time, Jing Rui might not have fallen for her. There must be another reason why he was willing to protect her.
In the past, she really wanted to know what the reason was. But now, she didnt want to know.
She just had to forget about everything else. She had lived a painful and uneasy life for too long, struggling on the edge of life and death every day. She had long wanted to change her way of life.
This feeling was very good, and she didnt want to ruin it.
If Jing Rui wanted to tell her, she would listen. If he did not want to tell her, she would never ask.
Shuyin washed up happily and saw Jing Rui waiting outside when she opened the door of the bathroom.
Then, Jing Rui picked her up and walked down the stairs.
Shuyin was very embarrassed. This was too intimate!
Ill walk on my own ...
You have such a powerful boyfriend, why dont you make good use of him? This is your benefit! Oh, I know. Do you feel bad for me?
Shuyin knew that it was easy for Jing Rui to carry someone.
However, a boyfriend ...
These three words were particrly novel to Shuyin.
Jing Rui carried her down the stairs, and her heart was racing.
She had never thought that she would be so close to Jing Rui one day.
I dont feel bad for you. You can hug me if you want. I like it!
Jing Rui pretended to be hurt.Youre so cruel. You eat so many chicken wings every day. Youre so fat that I cant even carry you, but you dont feel bad! Youre not allowed to eat chicken wings anymore. Just two lettuce leaves a day and drink some water.
He had always been cold, even his smile was faint. It was rare for Shuyin to see him show a hurt expression. She felt sorry for him, but after hearing what he said, she was so angry that she wanted to bite him!
How am I fat? You like bamboo poles?
Jing Rui nced at her ample chest and said,The ces that should be fat are fat. I like it.
Shuyin immediately blushed. She covered her chest and pouted,Dont look around!
Dont be shy. Theres no one else at home, just the two of us. Whats the big deal if I take a look? Ive already touched it anyway! And it feels really good to the touch. Im still trying to imagine its shape in my mind.
He had an open and aboveboard appearance, and there was no expression on his face. His eyebrows were handsome, and his temperament was noble. He didnt look like someone who could casually say such excessive words!
Shuyin finally knew today that one couldnt judge a book by its cover!
He looked like a decent person, but he didnt say a single word of seriousness!
Even the handsome Jing Zhi who liked to tease young girls wasnt as good at spouting nonsense as he was!
Shuyin couldnt help but lean on Jing Ruis chest and bite him hard.
Jing Rui snorted andughed. Youre biting me again. Youre really born in the year of the puppy. You can bite me, but youre not allowed to break it, understand?
He actually knew that every time Shuyin bit him, she couldnt bear to really bite him. At most, she would leave a bite mark, but she wouldnt break it.
So he wasnt too worried.
Moreover, he felt that although the virus in his body was destructive, the concentration was much lower than Jing Zhi s. Shuyins body had been transformed by many kinds of viruses, so she should be fine even if it was stained with his blood.
An ordinary person might have lost their life, but Shuyin herself was an expert in this field. She had a strong resistance and she knew what she was doing.
The atmosphere was good today, and he didnt want to ruin it. In the future, when they were more intimate, he would tell Shuyin the secret of his body, in case she couldnt resist his virus and got into an ident.
Shuyin listened to his doting voice and felt like she was the happiest woman in the world.
She only bit Jing Rui once and could not bear to bite him again.
She reached out her hand and touched Jing Ruis face. She said gently,Youre so handsome!
Her expression and actions pleased Jing Rui. He put Shuyin on the chair and lifted her chin. He said seriously, Youre also very beautiful, the second most beautiful woman Ive ever seen.
Shuyins eyes widened, and she asked subconsciously,Im only in second ce?
Why wasnt he first?
Jing Rui couldnt help butugh. He ruffled Shuyins hair and said happily,Yes, the second, the first is my mother!
Shuyin couldnt help but re at him. He was teasing her again! How annoying!
She had thought that he liked another girl!
She was only behind Jing Ruis mother. Shuyin was very happy. Im more beautiful than Xixi?
Jing Rui nodded without hesitation.Yes! She is more beautiful than her! He replied.
She was just an eight-year-old girl. Jing Rui did not see her as a girl because of her trouble-making personality.
At such a young age, she had already evolved into a tough woman!
Shuyin was embarrassed. She didnt want topete with Jing Xi. The girl was so likable and beautiful, simr to Jing Rui. She would definitely be a beauty in the future.
She smiled at Jing Rui.Its okay. I can be the third.
She treated Jing Xi as her own sister, so she would not be jealous of a child.
She would not fight with Jing Ruis family for the role. They all had different roles, but they all loved Jing Rui.
Especially his mother, who must have loved him very much and had a happy family, judging from Jing Ruis attitude.
This was something Shuyin was extremely envious of.
In her memory, her mother was also very beautiful, but she had not received much maternal love since she was young.
Her mother was a celebrity, but she never brought her along when she went out. She had never admitted that she already had a daughter.
Chapter 1098
Chapter 1098: Being kept as a mistress
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui pinched Shuyins cheeks and let her eat.
Most of the time, it was impossible to distinguish between the people important to ones side.
Just like parents, who was more important, the Father or the mother?
In his heart, they were equally important.
Shuyin was the same.
As time passed, she left a deep impression in his heart and became the woman he could not live without.
He ate his breakfast close to Shuyin, and when he saw that she had only eaten a little and stopped eating, he couldnt help but put a poached egg on her te.Eat more.
Im full, Im not eating anymore!
Youve never eaten so little in the past. Youve eaten too little today. This wont do!
Youll get fat if you eat too much!
Shuyin couldnt help but tell the truth, still resenting Jing Rui for calling her fat.
Jing Rui didnt know whether tough or cry. He was just making a casual remark, but Shuyin took it to heart.
She had a slender figure and was only an 18-year-old girl. She didnt even have a trace of fat on her body, so how was she fat?
He thought that Shuyin wouldnt care about these things. It seemed that women were all the same. You couldnt say that she was fat.
He suddenly remembered that when he was young, his father had joked that his mother was so fat that he couldnt even carry her. Then, his mother refused to let his father carry her for a month! At that time, he had even gloated over his fathers misfortune. Now, he knew that his father was really pitiful.
Luckily, Shuyin seemed to be easier to talk to than Shangguan ning. Otherwise, he would have ended up like his father.
Jing Rui held Shuyins slender waist and coaxed her in a low voice. Youre too skinny. Eat a little more. Its not good for your health to eat too little for breakfast. This is the Lotus-wrapped egg I made for you. Be good and eat it.
Shuyins waist was unusually sensitive. She felt like she had lost all her strength to sit when Jing Rui touched her. She felt soft all over and wanted to lean into Jing Ruis arms.
She lowered her head shyly and pushed Jing Ruis hand away. Dont touch me, Ill eat it.
Jing Rui nodded in satisfaction and started to eat his breakfast.
They had a happy and sweet breakfast. Jing Rui felt that if they could do this every day, their lives would be wonderful!
He changed into a dark blue suit and drove Shuyin to school personally.
Han Feng had already prepared the ss schedule and textbooks a few days ago, and they were all in Shuyins backpack.
Of course, in addition to these, there were also small bottles of virus, guns, bullets, miniature bombs, and sharp daggers that Shuyin never left her side in the inteyer of the backpack.
Jing Rui knew about the things in Shuyins bag, and his heart ached.
She must have suffered a loss and gotten hurt before, thats why she was so well prepared.
When they arrived at the school, Jing Rui held Shuyins hand before she got out of the car. He said softly,If you need anything, just tell me. If theres anything you cant handle, remember to look for me. Im your most solid support. You cant bear it alone.
His hand was so warm, and his voice was so gentle. Shuyins heart softened immediately.
She nodded.Alright. If I need anything, Ill definitely look for you. If not you, who else can I look for?
Shuyin thought for a moment and smiled.Prepare somepressed biscuits for me. Ill carry them every day. I also want vitamin drinks. If anything happens in the future, I wont be afraid!
Shu Yin still had lingering fears from her previous escape experience.
She had many ways to save her life, and it was usually not a problem for her to escape. However,st time, because she was too thirsty and hungry, she ate raw mushrooms and was poisoned!
If he lost his life because of a raw mushroom, that would be too unjust.
Jing Rui didnt expect Shuyin to ask for the hardtacks, but he understood her intention in an instant.
He couldnt help but pull Shuyin into his arms and said in her ear,Ive sent people to protect you. Actually, theyve always been there, but you just didnt know. What happenedst time was an ident. It wont happen again.
That time, he was angry and withdrew most of the people around Shuyin, leaving only three people to protect her.
However, the three of them took turns to guard Shuyin. They didnt guard her day and night.
Moreover, his subordinates could feel that he was very cold to Shuyin, so he didnt do his best to protect her.
Naturally, such a situation would not ur now.
That still requires food and drinks. Prepare them for me!
Shuyin liked Jing Ruis embrace. She leaned into his arms and said it as if it was a matter of course.
But Jing Rui liked her tone when she did not treat him as an outsider, so he gave in.Okay, Ill prepare some for you. Ill prepare more delicious food for you. You can eat it as a snack.
Shuyin got out of the car with a smile and walked into the campus with light steps.
She would look back every few steps and see Jing Ruis car parked there.
His car was a luxurious limited edition Bugatti sports car. When it was parked at the entrance of the campus, it attracted countless students to stop and look.
Shuyin didnt know anything about sports cars. She even knew that this was a Bugatti because the Research Institute bought three Bugatti sports cars for Jing Zhi when he was in North America, and they spent half a hundred million on them to get him to donate blood!
She had no concept of these things, but many students in University of X knew what they were.
A Bugatti Veyron? When did a sports car like this appear in A city? Hes so F * cking rich!
Stay away. If were careless and let them take it, we wont be able to afford it even if we sell ourselves!
I saw a girl in white get out of the car. Is this her car?
I dont think so, he should be someones mistress! You might not have seen it, but tsk, tsk, tsk, that appearance was really devastatingly beautiful! She must be a new student. Otherwise, I would have recognized her!
Shuyin listened to the discussions around her, looked at the branded clothes that Jing Rui had asked people to buy for her, and then looked at the sports car that sent her to school. Suddenly, she really felt like she was being supported by her Big Boss!
This feeling ... Is pretty good!
She had a strong mind. As long as she didnt have to face Jing Rui, she could handle the rest.
From time to time, people around her would point at her and talk about her. They looked at her with either surprise, jealousy, or doubt, but Shuyin didnt take it to heart.
She only cared about the people she cared about. The opinions of strangers could not affect her.
However, the rumors wouldnt dissipate just because of Shu Yins calmness.
On the contrary, many people were afraid of chaos. They quickly found information on Shuyins school and found her name.
After that, they spread the news that the beauty who just entered the school was a rich mans mistress.
A girl kindly reminded Shuyin, and rumors about her flew around the school. Shuyin didnt even look at her and continued to listen to her ss and read her books.
Those who wanted to watch the show were instantly embarrassed.

Chapter 1099: Im not a delicate person
Trantor: 549690339
The morning ss passed quickly, but Shuyin was a little disappointed.
After spending a few hours, she did not learn anything useful.
When Jing Rui came to pick her up at noon, he saw that the excitement in Shuyins eyes had disappeared.
Whats wrong? Did someone offend you? Who is it? tell me and he will disappear from A city tomorrow!
Shuyin saw Jing Rui, his handsome face, his cool car, and his arrogant tone, and she suddenly felt much better.
She revealed a bright smile and said in a crisp voice,Im a sugar daddy to a handsome and cool nouveau riche, who would dare to mess with me! Im a famous person in the school now, I have a lot of face!
A nouveau riche? Jing Rui raised his eyebrows.
These words were too damaging to his noble and dark temperament!
However, it was quite appropriate to keep her as a mistress!
This proved that Shuyin was his woman, and shepletely belonged to him.
And it looked like Shuyin didnt care about the word kept at all.
Jing Rui felt a little happy. Shuyin liked him more than he had thought.
University of X was not far from Jing Ruis Vi, and it was only a fifteen-minute drive. It was Shuyins first day of school, and Jing Rui hade to pick her up for dinner.
The kitchen was steaming hot, and there were people busy inside. There were already a few dishes on the table, and the aroma was overflowing, making people hungry.
Jing Rui sat Shuyin down at the table and said,I found a chef who can cook very well. Do you have anything you like to eat? Ill ask him to make it for you tonight.
Shuyin opened her mouth and was about to say something when Jing Rui said,Except for the chicken wings!
Shuyin immediately cringed.
I dont like to eat vegetables ...
Jing Rui sat beside her and held her hand.It might not have been good enough in the past, but the chefs nowadays are very good at cooking. Even vegetables can be made to taste good. Youll know when you try itter.
Shuyin wasnt actually a picky eater. She just loved to eat chicken wings more.
Ever since she had been freed from the Virus Research Institute, she had never treated herself shabbily when it came to food. She didnt eat anything she didnt like since she didnt particrly care about her weight. She usually ate a few slices of bread and some delicious side dishes for breakfast, but most of the time, she ate meat.
But since Jing Rui had asked her to eat the vegetables, she had to do it.
Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he really became fat.
The chef served thest soup and left quietly, leaving Jing Rui and Shuyin alone in the dining room.
Jing Rui poured Shuyin a bowl of winter melon soup. Seeing her drink it unwillingly, he couldnt help but rub her hair.
How delicate. You dont even like such fresh and refreshing winter melon soup.
Shuyin had never thought of herself as a delicate girl, but after hearing what Jing Rui said, she finally realized that she was indeed delicate in front of him.
When she was forced into a corner, she could even eat poisonous mushrooms raw. The current conditions were many times better than that time!
She had gotten used to Jing Ruis care and protection.
She took a big gulp of the soup and finished the winter melon. Then she said to Jing Rui,Im not a spoiled brat!
This was not being squeamish?
She was obviously pampered to no end!
But Jing Rui liked it when she was delicate. He did not like Shuyin to shoulder everything by herself.
Her facial features were exquisite, her skin was fair, and her hair fell softly over her shoulders. She was wearing a white long-sleeved dress, which made her look extremely elegant.
She sat there and ate her food unhurriedly. It was pleasing to the eye.
Why arent you happy to leave school today?
Shuyin was stunned. After a while, she remembered that she was indeed in a bad mood in the morning.
It turned out that he had always remembered!
Its nothing much. Its just that the schools curriculum is too basic and empty, and the teaching method is different from foreign countries. Everyone is sitting upright and still, while the teacher is teaching alone. Even if he makes a mistake, no one wille out to correct him. I think its a waste of time to listen to the ss there.
Shuyin told Jing Rui about her troubles. She could not dy her studies. If she wanted to change schools, she had to go through Jing Rui.
Jing Rui had never gone to school in the country. He had been taught by a professional teacher since he was a child. Neither the local nor foreign courses suited him.
Therefore, he was not clear about the teaching situation in China.
Try for two more days. If you think you cant learn anything, then dont go.
But I still want to learn new knowledge. I want to further my studies. Although Ive learned a lot in the Research Institute, thats not enough. I want to learn something more systematic andprehensive.
Jing Rui looked at her for a while and said helplessly,Yinyin, do you know that youve already reached the peak in that field? youve learned everything. I dont think there are many people in the world who can teach you.
Shuyin blinked and asked,really? But there are many people in the Research Institute who are much better than me. They have been studying viruses and gics for a long time. I remember that some of them often go to the University to teach students!
Yes, the virus elites are all concentrated in the Research Institute. From what I know, whenever a talent in this field appears outside, the Research Institute will do everything they can to get the person in. As a result, there are more and more talents inside, while there are fewer and fewer virus researchers outside.
Then what should we do?
Shuyin felt that Jing Rui was right. The Research Institute had a lot of new blood every year, and it would be difficult for her to find a teacher outside.
The teachers in North America werent necessarily better than those in China, but their teaching methods were different. Teachers in North America liked to interact with their students, and their lessons were all in an exchange mode. Shuyin was able to learn more or less.
It was different in China. It was all the teachers talking and the students listening, so there was very little interaction.
Dont worry, I might be able to find a few teachers for you. However, the location of the ss wont be in the school, but in the hospital.
Shuyin didnt care where the ss was held. As long as she could improve her professional level and ovee one Virology problem after another, she was fine with it.
Shuyin was relieved. Suddenly, she asked,Why dont I see Jing Zhi? Where did he go?
Jing Zhi was usually the most enthusiastic when it came to eating, so Shuyin was naturally a little puzzled that she couldnt see him now.
Oh, Jing Rui said calmly,he was invited to the police station for tea.
Chapter 1100
Chapter 1100: Being beaten
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi had been interrogated countless times in the police station sincest night, and he had been beaten up many times.
Of course, the old police officer who took his statement waspletely helpless. If he had some skills, he wouldnt be taking notes when he was about to retire.
Two fierce policemen were interrogating Jing Zhi. They started fighting each other and locked him in a room. They even ordered the other prisoners in the room to beat and scold him.
Jing Zhi didnt fight back when he was hit, and he didnt talk back when he was scolded. So by noon, there was no good part of him.
His body was in so much pain that he didnt dare to move.
But Jing Zhi felt an inexplicable sense of excitement.
As expected, he didnt follow any legal procedures. As expected, he had a backer in the police station!
If he really was someone without any background or ability, he would definitely die in the police station in two days!
He had seen with his own eyes that some people in the police station had died after being locked up for a few days because they had stolen something.
Human lives were really worthless!
This ce was no different from a man-eating ce like the Virus Research Institute!
Zheng Jings career as the director of the Public Security Bureau hade to an end.
There was no need for him to stay any longer. He could not wait to destroy the Zheng family!
Jing Zhi got up from the ground and called for the police to contact his family.
Because Jing Zhi was the special target that the higher-ups had told them to take care of, everyone here had an impression of him. They didnt investigate his identity on purpose and didnt give him a chance to contact his family. They wanted to torture him to death first and make him contact his family when he couldnt take it anymore and pay arge sum of money.
Now that Jing Zhi had asked to contact his family and offered to pay, the people in the police station were more than happy to oblige.
As long as Jing Zhi paid, they would get a share of the money.
Jing Rui had just finished dinner with Shuyin when he received the call from the police station.
He listened to the extremely arrogant voice on the other end of the phone and his face suddenly turned cold.
He had thought that Jing Zhi was just ying around, but from what the man had said, Jing Zhi was seriously ill.
No virus could harm Jing Zhi, let alone a cold. That was simply impossible!
It was obvious that those people had injured Jing Zhi and needed him to pay the ransom. If he didnt go now, Jing Zhi would die of illness in there.
Shuyin didnt know what had happened, but Jing Zhi was the only one who could make Jing Rui look so upset.
After all, he had just said that Jing Zhi had been invited to the police station for tea.
Jing Rui hung up the phone and was about to leave.Yinyin, you can go to school by yourself in the afternoon. Im going to the police station to pick up ah Chi.
Shuyin wasnt attracted to the school at all now. Even if she went, she would only listen to the teachers teaching. She knew much more than those teachers.
Im not going to school, Ill go with you to pick up Jing Zhi!
Shuyin was still quite worried about Jing Zhi. He used to love to cause trouble and was extremely arrogant. Every time he did it, he would hurt himself and turn half of North America upside down.
She didnt know what he had done this time, but she knew his physical condition and could take care of him at any time if she went with him.
Jing Rui had the same thought. He nodded and went to the police station with Shu Yin, Han Feng and the others.
Jing Rui was furious when he saw Jing Zhi, who was covered in wounds, through the iron fence.
His younger brother had been beaten up in front of his eyes. His handsome face was covered in blue and purple scars, and it was so swollen that his original appearance could not be seen at all!
Even though Jing Rui knew that it was all because of Jing Zhi, he still couldnt help but feel angry.
No one in the police station knew Jing Rui.
However, even if they didnt know him, they could tell that his identity was different from others from his powerful aura and spectacr disy.
His white Bugatti sports car was so eye-catching, and the license te was a row of eye-catching eights. The bodyguards following him all had restrained their auras and walked silently, but under their suits, their strong muscles and tyrannical strength could be faintly seen!
This posture ofing to smash the ce made everyones heart tremble.
Jing Rui did not let Jing Zhi out of the cage-like room. He looked around coldly and said to Han Feng,Call Zheng Jing and tell him that my brother has been locked up. Tell him to do as he sees fit.
Han Feng took out his cell phone and called Zheng Jing without a second of hesitation.
Zheng Jing arrived at the police station in less than half an hour.
When the police officers inside saw that their boss had reallye, they all trembled a little and went forward to greet him.Director, youre here! Well ...
Zheng Jing raised his hand and stopped them from talking.
He turned to look at Jing Rui, who was standing in the middle, and asked,You are Jing Rui?
Usually, Jing Rui would call Zheng Jing uncle Zheng out of respect for his parents. But today, he would not show any respect to anyone.
I am. Bureau chief Zheng has been promoted, and his authority is getting bigger and bigger!
Jing Rui replied indifferently.
Zheng Jing didnt care about Jing Ruis sarcasm. If he had any authority, he wouldnt havee here in such a hurry.
He was just a little suspicious of Jing Ruis identity.
This was because the person he had met before was Liao Wei. Although the two of them looked very simr, there were still differences.
The Jing Rui in front of her looked taller and colder.
The voice was simr, but Zheng Jing, who used to be a Criminal Police officer, could tell the difference immediately.
He had only found outst year that Jing Rui had a substitute.
But now, he could not tell if the person in front of him was the real Jing Rui.
However, from Jing Ruis words, he could tell something was wrong.
He said that he was going to be promoted, because he had been a Deputy bureau chief before Jing Zhi went missing. He had only be one a few years ago, and Jing Rui was just a substitute.
Strictly speaking, this was the first time he had met the real Jing Rui since Jing Zhi had gone missing.
Zheng Jing could not be sure if Jing Rui was telling the truth, but he knew Han Feng.
Jing Yichen had said that the cold wind would only follow the real Jing Rui.
Jing Rui did not give Zheng Jing any time to think. He pointed at Jing Zhi, who was still locked up, and said coldly,
Bureau chief Zheng, my brother Jing Zhi was fine before he was locked upst night. How did he be like this today? If I hade a littleter, would he have lost his life?
Jing Zhi?
Zheng Jing looked at the group of people in shock, but he could not tell which one was Jing Zhi.
He couldnt care less about his decorum as the chief and immediately shouted,Open the door! Open the door immediately!
A police officer opened the iron gate with trembling hands and then retreated to the side in fear. He was so scared that he didnt dare to say anything.
Chapter 1101
Chapter 1101: Its all the virus fault
Trantor: 549690339
The director rarely lost his temper, and he had never been like this before, as if he was going crazy.
Those who didnt know better would think that the person locked inside had his own son!
The door had just opened when Zheng Jing stepped in.Which one of you is Jing Zhi?
His voice trembled slightly, with 30% caution and 70% pain.
The police officers waiting outside were even more suspicious that Jing Zhi was the illegitimate son of the chief.
Jing Zhi was curled up in a corner, lying on the cold ground in tattered clothes. The wounds on his body had already scabbed, but his white shirt and trousers were all stained red with blood. The torn shirt showed what kind of brutal beating he had been through.
Hearing Zheng Jings call, he didnt move or say a word. He just stared at Zheng Jing with cold eyes.
But just because Jing Zhi didnt say anything, it didnt mean the others didn t.
The other five people who were locked up with him all looked at him in unison.He is!
Zheng Jing walked up to Jing Zhi, trembling.Ah Chi, is that you?
Jing Zhi had been missing for eight years.
His disappearance was caused by his eldest daughter.
His daughters were still young and ignorant at that time. Zheng Jing had always med himself and felt guilty that they had not taught them well. Otherwise, his two daughters, who had always been obedient and sensible, would not have done such a thing.
After Jing Zhi went missing, Jing Yiran had gone crazy. He did nothing but chase after Jing Zhi and beat him up.
For the past eight years, Jing Yiran had refused to talk to him.
As for her daughter, Zheng yuluo, she was apletely different person. She med herself so much that she suffered from depression and even thought ofmitting suicide.
But now, he was able to see Jing Zhi again!
Zheng Jing was afraid that he was in a dream.
He looked at the person in front of him who was covered in injuries and was extremely angry!
Who did this? Who beat him up like this?!
Those who could be temporarily detained in the police station were actually generally people who hadmitted minor crimes and did not need to go to jail. They did not even need to go to the guard house. Usually, they would be fined and locked up for 24 hours at most before being released.
It was a serious dereliction of duty to beat someone up like this!
The two policemen who were beating Jing Zhi up shivered when they heard Zheng Jings roar. They shouted without thinking,Director, it was the Deputy Director who told us to do it! If we dont fight, theyll fire us. Were forced to do so!
Zheng Jing was so angry that his face turned pale. But this was not the time to deal with these two people. The most important thing was to get Jing Zhi to the hospital.
Although Zheng Jing knew nothing about what had happened, he still felt that he was to me for what had happened to her. He felt even more guilty and painful.
Jing Rui asked Han Feng and the others to send Jing Zhi to family MUs Hospital. Jing Zhi didnt say a word to Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing still couldnt believe that Jing Zhi was back even after he went to the hospital.
He watched Jing Rui drive away all the medical staff and take the beautiful girl to the emergency room to treat Jing Zhis wound. He suddenly remembered that Jing Zhi had a highly infectious virus in his body.
He immediately called the police station and asked them to iste and observe all the people who had beaten Jing Zhi and those who had been in contact with him.
Zheng Jing waited alone outside the emergency room after he had settled everything in the Bureau.
He hesitated for a while, but in the end, he picked up his phone and called his daughter.
Now that Jing Zhi had been found, the stone in his daughters heart should have been lifted, right?
Zheng yuluo received her fathers call and rushed to the hospital as fast as she could.
Father, how is he? Is it important? I want to go in and see him!
As Zheng yuluo spoke, she rushed to the emergency room.
Zheng Jing got up and stopped her,luoluo,e back! You cant go!
His tone was unspeakably stern. Zheng yuluo had never heard him speak in such a tone before.
Dad, is he dying? Zheng yuluos eyes reddened.
Otherwise, why would her father be so fierce to her?
Zheng Jing knew that his daughter had misunderstood him, but he did not let go of her hand. He still stopped her from going in. Dont worry, hes fine. It should be just some ... Superficial wounds.
Zheng Jings voice became lower and lower as he spoke.
He knew how the police beat people up. They usually didnt let the prisoners have any external injuries, but only internal injuries, leaving the outside intact.
If Jing Zhis external injuries were so serious, it was easy to imagine how serious his internal injuries were.
Since its just a superficial wound, it doesnt matter if I go in and take a look! Father, let me go, I want to go in and see him!
No! You just wait outside!
Zheng Jing wouldnt let his daughter in no matter what. He was much stronger than his 17-year-old daughter and Zheng yuluo couldnt get out of his grip no matter how hard she tried.
The tears in Zheng yuluos eyes rolled down.
Dad, why dont you let me see him? I havent seen him for a long time, I just wanted to see if he was seriously injured! Father, I beg you, please let me in!
Zheng Jing didnt know that his daughter had found Jing Zhi, nor did he know what had happened between them.
He wanted his daughter to go in and see Jing Zhi, but he couldnt do that right now.
He hugged his thin and weak daughter and said in a low voice,Luoluo, hes really fine. I didnt let you in because I was afraid youd get infected. His wound is now oozing blood. If you go in like this, youll die!
Zheng yuluo raised her head in disbelief.Dad, what did you say? Virus? What virus?
Jing Zhi is different from ordinary people. You must have noticed that when he was very young, he was strong and far stronger than ordinary people in all aspects. That was because he had a deadly virus in his body that modified his genes and strengthened his body. The virus is transmitted through blood and Jing Rui almost died in the process. So, we have forbidden you from getting in touch with Jing Zhi since you were young.
Zheng yuluo could not believe this fact!
So the truth was like this!
She had been repulsed by Jing Zhi and called him monster since she was a child. She thought he was abnormal, but it was all because of the virus!
He was not a monster, he was just strengthened by the virus!
Her ears buzzed, and many things in the past had been exined.
No wonder Jing Zhi had tried to stop her from biting him. She had thought it was because he hated her.
So it wasn t!
He was afraid that she would bite his skin and get infected with the virus!
Zheng yuluos tears fell. She leaned on her fathers body and had almost no strength to support herself.
Why didnt he tell her earlier?
Why did he mislead her!
She had been fine getting close to Jing Zhi, but she had isted him for so many years.
She had even done the most intimate thing with him, but she was still alive and well!
The virus could only be transmitted through blood. They could have been friends!

Trantor: 549690339
In the emergency room, Jing Zhi was lying on the operating table with his eyes wide open. He looked disheveled, but he was surprisingly in good spirits, as if he hadnt been injured at all.
Shuyin was carefully disinfecting Jing Zhis wound with a transparent mask, sterile clothes, and rubber gloves.
She had treated Jing Zhis wounds many times when she was in the Research Institute, so she was very skilled at it.
However, Jing Zhi had been seriously injured this time, and the people at the police station had obviously not held back when they had hit him.
Shuyin didnt hit him too hard for fear of hurting him, but Jing Zhi didnt take his injury seriously at all. He was still in the mood to tease Shuyin.
Little Shenyu, how could you take off my clothes in front of my brother? Aiya, Im so embarrassed!
Shuyin was so angry that she wanted to stab him to death with a pair of scissors!
She didnt know how many times she had seen Jing Zhis body. Although she hadnt seen his private parts, he had been injured so many times that he had to take off his clothes during treatment.
Shuyin didnt feel anything at all when she looked at him, but when he said that, she seemed to have changed her mind!
She picked up a cotton ball and pressed it on Jing Zhis wound on purpose. He screamed in pain and she said,If you dont take off your clothes, how am I supposed to disinfect and apply medicine for you? Dont be so narcissistic, your figure is far from your brother s!
Jing Zhi was in so much pain that his handsome face was twisted, but he didnt care about the pain at all. He asked in a surprised tone,
Shuyin, youve already slept with my brother? You guys are too fast! Could it be that I already have a nephew? What are you going to name my little nephew? I hope my little nephew looks like me. Itll be easier to find a girlfriend if hes as handsome as me, haha!
What the hell is this!
Which ear of his could tell that she and Jing Rui ...?
Shuyins fair face turned a little pink. She was a little embarrassed, and her hand unconsciously tightened.
Jing Zhi cried out in pain,brother, your woman is bullying me! I was already on myst breath, and I was tortured by her until I was only left with half a breath! Help me!
Jing Rui stood not far away from the operating table, with his hands in the pockets of his pants. He said coldly,He deserves it! Yinyin, cut him a few more times. Hes been itching for a beating recently!
Jing Rui didnt want to talk to Jing Zhi at first.
Jing Zhi had been out of his mind ever since he came back to China.
Not only did he hit someone, get into a car ident, jump into the sea, and get drunk, but he also deliberately ran to the police station and let people beat him to death!
Was it worth it just for Zheng yuluo?
Crazy!
Would Zheng yuluo fall in love with him if he did this?
Only a ghost would fall in love with such a childish person!
As Jing Zhis brother, he wanted to break Jing Zhis bones.
Jing Rui looked at Jing Zhi with eyes as sharp as knives, but Jing Zhi was not afraid of him at all. He even imitated Jing Ruis tone and shouted,Yinyin! Yinyin!
Jing Zhi saw his brothers face turn from green to ck, and he shouted exaggeratedly,Brother, when did she change from miss Shu to Yinyin? Ive only been away for one night, and you guys have made such great progress?
If Jing Zhi wasnt still lying on the operating table, he would be thumping his chest and stomping his feet in frustration.
Heavens! Ive missed the biggest show of the year! In order to please your Yinyin, you actually cut your own brother twice? And youreining that my skin is itchy? Little Shenyu, femme fatale is talking about you!
Jing Zhiy there wailing and shrieking, while Shuyin really wanted to turn around and leave!
This person was too long-winded and noisy, right?
Wasnt he injured?
The wounds all over his body were not fake, and he had also lost a lot of blood, so how could he still have the energy to jump around?
In the past, when he was in the Research Institute, he would be dying if he lost a little blood. Why was he so excited today?
After being teased by Jing Zhi for a while, Shuyin finally couldnt take it anymore. She didnt treat the wound gently anymore. Instead, she pressed it hard on purpose. She didnt even give Jing Zhi any anesthetic for the bigger wounds and just stitched them up.
Jing Zhis face was pale and he was sweating from the pain.
This was the consequence of offending a doctor, especially a female doctor!
Jing Zhi immediately begged for mercy,little Shenshu, I was wrong. I was wrong. Can you please treat me like a human? It was very painful! You see, I have arms and legs, Im a mammal, and I have a high IQ and speaking ability. Im obviously a human, not an egg!
Shu Yin couldnt hold it in and burst outughing!
The egg ...
Shuyin couldnt help but look at Jing Rui. He and Jing Zhi were brothers.
She couldnt imagine what the brothers would look like if they were eggs!
This is too funny!
She was still sewing the wound with a needle. She couldnt even hold the needle steadily when she heard such a funny joke.
Aiyo! It hurts! Shuyin, you missed!
Oh, sorry, sorry. I thought you were a ball and not afraid of pain, so I wanted to try inserting a few needles in other ces.
Jing Zhi was so angry that he almost jumped off the operating table.
Brother, help! Your brother might not be beaten to death by the police, but hes going to be stabbed to death by this quack in the hospital!
Well, its good that he died, Jing Rui said coldly.I dont want to embarrass myself in the police station.
Jing Zhi wanted to cry, but no tears came out,brother, do you not want your brother anymore now that you have a woman? You werent like this before, didnt you love me the most? Why did you have a change of heart? Dont tell me I cant win against a woman?
Shuyinughed so hard that she couldnt even straighten her back!
Jing Zhi was a weirdo!
When he was sent to the emergency room, the atmosphere had been very heavy and Jing Rui had looked like he was about to kill someone. But now, the atmosphere hadpletely changed.
Jing Ruis expression was as if he was going to eat someone alive!
With a brother like Jing Zhi, she wondered how Jing Rui lived when he was a child. Would he vomit blood every now and then because of him?
When Jing Rui heard that he had been beaten up, he was so heartbroken that he wanted to destroy the police station, but Jing Zhi was fine.
Jing Rui punched Jing Zhis uninjured thigh.Shut up! If you continue to talk nonsense, Ill throw you out!
Jing Zhi screamed exaggeratedly,ah! It hurts! I dont want to live anymore!
Shuyin finally stoppedughing and started to treat his wound.
Jing Zhi felt that it was too slow, so he said,
Actually, my injuries recover very quickly. You know the shade of the trees best, dont you? Theres no need to bandage it. Ill go back, take a shower, and sleep. There wont even be a scar the next day!
Thats it. Stop it. I feel like Im full of energy now!
Dont wipe off all the blood. It wont have any effect if you dont look ferocious. Its good to be covered in blood!
The more serious my injuries are, the more likely Ill be able to get back at the police! You ignored thew and hit me, so you should be punished! By the way, you should help me take a few more photos, the more miserable the better!
Chapter 1103
Chapter 1103: Were not that close
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo was waiting outside the emergency room with Zheng Jing. Her heart was twisted when she heard the screams from inside.
After a while, Jing Rui and Shuyin finally came out.
Zheng yuluo immediately stood up and asked anxiously,How is he?
Shuyin was about to say that he was fine when Jing Rui interrupted her. He said to Zheng Jing coldly,
Bureau chief Zheng, the police officers in your station have been deemed to have caused serious personal injury to my brother. I will demand an exnation for my brother, so youd better be prepared. If it wasnt for my brothers special Constitution, he might have been killed today!
Jing Rui was not exaggerating. Jing Zhi was not only physically strong, but he had also been tortured by the Research Institute and the killer organization. So this injury was nothing to him.
However, if it was someone else, he might not even be able to save them.
Although Jing Zhi had done it on purpose, Jing Rui had done everything he could to help him.
He knew what Jing Zhi was doing. Jing Rui looked at Zheng yuluo, whose eyes were red, and then took Shuyin to the changing room to change.
Both Zheng Jing and Zheng yuluo felt a little guilty. They seemed to have owed Jing Zhi another debt.
The father and daughter had no idea that Jing Zhi was willing to put himself in danger and be tortured by the police in dark ways just to make Zheng yuluo feel guilty and to mess up her life.
Seeing Jing Rui leave, Zheng yuluo wanted to go to the emergency room to see Jing Zhi.
But Zheng Jing stopped her.Luoluo, dont go in. I will go in and have a look. You can go in only if there is no danger.
Zheng yuluo furrowed her delicate eyebrows and said,dad, what danger can he be in? Both Jing Rui and the female doctor were fine!
Even at this crucial moment, she didnt forget to pretend not to know Shuyin.
She had been very smart and scheming since she was a child, but after Jing Zhis disappearance, she had be numb to it and stopped scheming.
Her parents forbade her and her sister from getting close to Jing Zhi, for fear that the sisters would get infected and die.
Zheng yuluo didnt dare to say that something like that had already happened between her and Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo insisted on going in. Zheng Jing thought that Jing Zhis wound must have been treated by now. He sighed and said in a low voice,Luoluo, you can go in, but you cant get too close to Jing Zhi. Didnt you see that the female doctor was covered in protective gear? wed better be careful.
Zheng yuluo nodded and finally pushed open the door of the emergency room.
The emergency room had been cleaned up, and there was not a single trace of blood.
Jing Zhi was lying on the operating table. Most of his body was wrapped in gauze, some of which were red. It was obvious that blood was still oozing out of his wounds.
He closed his eyes as if he didnt know that someone wasing.
Zheng yuluo had been eager to see him before she came in, but she did not dare to look at him after she came in.
The so-called fear of approaching home was probably the true portrayal of her at this moment.
Chi ...
Zheng Jing called him softly.
Jing Rui suddenly opened his eyes and saw two faces, one big and one small.
Director Zheng, please dont call me that. Were not that close! This is the emergency room, all of you, get out!
He didnt even look at Zheng yuluo, as if she didnt exist. He just stared at Zheng Jing with sharp eyes.
He no longer had the rxation and reliance he had in front of his brother. He had be the terrifying killer mo Mei again.
Even though his entire body was wrapped in white gauze, even though he was lying there without any advantage in position, no one could ignore his powerful aura!
That kind of aura was umted through countless experiences, and that kind of coldness was also umted after taking countless lives.
Jing Zhi had always been a powerful man, but because he had an even more powerful brother, he always showed his childish side to his family.
Zheng Jing had already expected that Jing Zhi would not treat them well. He had been bossy since he was a child and did not give face to anyone.
Now that he had grown up, his personality had not changed at all. He was still so stubborn.
Of course, he was even colder.
It was like an extremely sharp sword that would be cut the moment it got close.
Zheng Jing pulled his daughter back subconsciously. Ill definitely give you an exnation for what happened at the police station. Ill alsopensate you for the unfair treatment youve received ...
Jing Zhi interrupted him before he could finish. He sneered.Compensation? How? Beat up all the people who have beaten me? When I was arrested, they said that they had a strong background and that they would make me suffer a fate worse than death. A citys police station is really well-managed!
His sarcasm was so strong that even Zheng Jing, who had been through so much, felt embarrassed.
Because such an incident could only prove that he was not qualified to be the Bureau chief.
But Zheng Jing was not here to argue with Jing Zhi. Since Jing Zhi had returned to A city, it meant that Jing Rui had found him a long time ago. He should enjoy his life now that he was free from his suffering.
The police willpensate you. The other offenders will also be punished and fired.
You think Ick money? Dont you know that family Jing is so poor that all they have left is money?
Of course Zheng Jing knew that. He also knew that Jing Zhis tone was exactly the same as Jing Yiran s.
Both father and son were equally insolent and their words could choke people to death!
Then what do you want to do?
Zheng Jing didnt want to argue with a child because they had let Jing Zhi down first, so it was only right for them to tolerate him.
Its very simple. Throw your daughter into the police station and let the police lock her up and beat her up!
That is impossible! Zheng Jing said coldly.
Jing Zhis expression was even colder than his,your daughter is a noble, but other peoples children are grass? No one would care if I was killed, but she cant touch me?
These are two different things! This matter has nothing to do with luoluo, so why does she have to suffer?
Zheng Jing could give in to other things, but he would never give in to his daughter.
Thats great, then lets find something rted to her!
Jing Zhi seemed to be waiting for his rejection. He said indifferently,I was forced to be a killer for seven years, and you also sent her to the killer Camp to be a killer for seven years! If you cantplete your tasks, you wont have food or water to eat!
Zheng Jings expression was stiff and he looked terrible.She was too young and insensible at that time. I didnt teach her well. If you want to me someone, me me. It has nothing to do with luoluo! If you want to take revenge,e at me!
Zheng yuluo felt terrible when she saw her father being forced by Jing Zhi and her father protecting her.
Jing Zhi, dont target my father. I know you hate me, so just hate me. Dont drag my father into this!
Chapter 1104
Chapter 1104: Wrong posture
Trantor: 549690339
Was she targeting her father?
A fire of anger rose in Jing Zhis heart.
His attitude was already considered very good!
If it was anyone else, he would have immediately pulled Zheng Jing down from the position of the Director of the Public Security Bureau.
He would always be shameless in Zheng yuluos heart!
Last time, she had risked her life to protect a pretty boy. This time, she had risked her life to protect her father. It was all his fault anyway. Everyone else was right and good!
Jing Zhi stared at Zheng yuluo coldly, as if he was trying to see through her.
Her beautiful face was full of caution and vignce, and she didnt look like she wanted to see him at all!
Jing Zhis heart grew cold, just like his eyes.
He got off the operating table with some difficulty. Just as he took a small step forward, he saw the father and daughter nervously take a big step back.
Their expressions were so familiar!
Yes, it used to be like this!
They avoided him like they were avoiding the gue!
However, just now, his brother didnt even wear a mask and came in directly to guard him. He was heartbroken that he was injured and didnt care about the virus in his body at all.
Although her brother also had the virus in his body, if he infected her again, it would still be a huge risk.
He wasnt afraid, because his brother cared more about his brothers safety.
Jing Zhis lips curled into a mocking smile.
He already knew, didnt he?
All his excitement was extinguished. The pain on his body reminded him that he was a joke.
Since youve given up on settling this matter privately, Ill hire the bestwyer and settle this matter through legal procedures!
Jing Zhis face was calm and steady, which didnt match his age. He put away all his frivolousness and preposterous arrogance.
There was no longer any hint of personal emotion in his tone. It was as if he was talking to two strangers.
He was injured and couldnt move easily, so he walked very slowly.
However, every step he took was very firm.
Zheng yuluo looked at his back and felt that he seemed to be walking out of his life step by step!
Why was it like this every time they met?
Why cant they talk properly?
After Jing Zhi left the emergency room, Zheng yuluo copsed into Zheng Jings arms.Dad, what should we do? Did I cause you any trouble?
Zheng Jing held his daughter in his arms andforted her. Its nothing. This has nothing to do with you. This is an internal matter of the police station. They hit Jing Zhi and its against thew. Dont worry, go home first. Ill definitely handle these things!
Zheng yuluo used to admire her father very much. She also felt that he was extremely powerful and was her most solid backing.
But after what happened with Jing Zhi, she realized that her father wasnt omnipotent. At least when it came to Jing Zhi, he was powerless.
It was Jing Rui who had spent a lot of time and effort to save him.
Zheng yuluo did not think that her father could settle todays matter alone.
Although she was not well-versed in the ways of the world, she knew that if this matter was pursued, her father, as the Bureau chief, would definitely be implicated.
In Zheng yuluos heart, her father was an excellent police officer. He had always been catching bad people and protecting the safety of the people of A city. His career could not be tainted by such things.
She gritted her teeth and made up her mind. Then, she left the hospital.
Jing Rui also left the hospital with Jing Zhi and Shuyin. Jing Zhi had a strong recovery ability. Although he was injured, he would recover in two days.
As for his internal injuries, Jing Zhi had dodged with skill when he had been hit, so he didnt take it to heart.
On the way back, Jing Zhi was exceptionally quiet, so quiet that Shu Yin was a little ufortable.
She sat in the front passenger seat and couldnt help but turn to look at Jing Zhi, who was lying in the back seat. He looked pale and gloomy, so she thought he was not feeling well.Jing Zhi, do you want to go to the hospital for another examination? Ive only treated your external injuries. You can only rely on the medical equipment for your internal injuries. If its painful, dont bear with it. Itll be troublesome if there are residual effects.
Shuyins voice was a little cold, but Jing Zhi felt warm hearing it.
Even Shuyin was concerned about him, but Zheng yuluo did not ask him anything when she saw him. She even used him of picking on Zheng Jing.
Jing Zhi closed his eyes and said tiredly,Theres no need to check, Im fine. I just didnt sleep or eatst night, so Im a little tired.
He did not seem to be in a good state. Shuyin hesitated for a while and looked at Jing Rui in the drivers seat, asking him what to do.
Jing Rui had been very angry when he saw his brothers half-dead appearance.
However, when he saw Shuyin asking for his opinion and putting him first, his mood turned from gloomy to sunny.
Dont worry about him, hell be fine after starving him for two days! Why did youe to the police station for no reason?
Jing Ruis expression was calm. Jing Zhi could tell that his brother was angry.
If it had been any other time, Jing Zhi would have acted like a spoiled child to his brother and begged for his forgiveness.
However, he was too upset today and didnt want to say a word.
But Jing Zhis silence made Jing Rui even angrier.
He did not care about his health at all, and Jing Rui wanted to throw him back to North America.
At least Zheng yuluo wasnt there, so he could be more normal.
Back in the vi, Jing Zhi entered his bedroom on the first floor. He had justid down on the bed when Jing Rui opened the door and walked in.
He stood by the bed and looked at Jing Zhi with a frown.Ah Chi, you should go back to North America. Youre leaving tomorrow.
Im not going back,Jing Zhi said sullenly.
Youre seeking death here instead of going back?!
Jing Ruis tone was extremely harsh. He only had one brother and he could not bear to see him torture himself for a woman.
Its fine if you dont go back to North America. Ill get someone to kill Zheng yuluo tonight, along with her sister in United Kingdom, so that they dont have the same face and bewitch you.
Jing Zhi suddenly wrapped his arms around Jing Ruis waist and said in a low voice,Up to you. Im not going back anyway. Ill be wherever you are and wont leave. Youre my brother, so Ill listen to you and wont cause any trouble in the future.
He sounded sad and pitiful. Jing Ruis heart was touched, but his face stiffened.
Let go! How old are you? Why are you even more clingy than Xixi?
His younger brother, who was taller than him, was hugging his waist like this. There was an inexplicable sense of disharmony!
If Shuyin saw this, what if she misunderstood?
As Jing Rui was thinking, he heard a familiar and cold voice behind him.Yo, you two have such a deep Brotherhood! Was this the Titanic? But the posture isnt very good, right?

Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui froze and quickly pushed Jing Zhi away. He said calmly,Ah Chi was agitated today, dont think too much.
With an innocent look on her face, Shuyin opened her big, clear eyes and asked,Why should I overthink? Isnt it normal for brothers to hug each other?
She pretended not to know, but Jing Rui knew that Shuyin was not as innocent as she appeared to be.
There were so many male lovers in the Virus Research Institute!
Her so-called adopted father was gay, so he wasnt interested in Shuyin at all.
Shuyin gave Jing Rui a look that said,youre not pure. She put arge ss of warm water on Jing Zhis bed and left.
I wont disturb you anymore. You guys can continue!
Yinyin!
Big brother!
Jing Zhi was afraid that Jing Rui would leave, so he called out to him when he heard him calling for Shuyin. He grabbed his clothes and refused to let him go.
Jing Rui restrained his impulse to throw Jing Zhi out and said coldly,You want to get beaten up, dont you?
Then hit me! Its better to be beaten by you than by others ...
Who let you make your own decisions? Do you think the police can catch you with your abilities? You smashed the bar and you have nowhere to spend your money? Or do you think Im omnipotent and can settle anything?
Youve always been omnipotent,Jing Zhi muttered.Ive never seen anything you cant solve ...
Jing Rui could not punish him because of his childish behavior and the fact that he was covered in bandages.
In the end, he didnt go after Shuyin. Instead, he stayed in the room with Jing Zhi.
Alright, let go. Im not leaving.
Jing Zhi refused to listen. Hey on the bed, still holding onto Jing Ruis clothes.
Deep wrinkles had already appeared on his expensive handmade suit.
Im not going to North America, Im only following you! Brother, dont chase me away!
Ive left the assassin camp to you. You should be in North America. If something happens, itll be toote.
My mom is there, it doesnt matter if I go or not. Shes much better than me!
You dont have anything to do here!
Its fine, as long as I can follow you.
Jing Rui sighed softly. Jing Zhi was still the same as when he was a child. He was willing to follow him and was not even willing to go home.
He didnt want Jing Zhi to go back to North America. He wanted Jing Zhi to stay with him.
Jing Rui patted his brothers back and said,Alright, then follow me.
But he couldnt let Jing Zhi be idle in the future. He had to improve himself. He had to at least interact more with others and learn how to deal with people. He also had to get in touch with more girls.
He couldnt just fall into Zheng yuluos hands in this life.
The door to Jing Zhis room wasnt closed, so Shuyin could hear the brothers conversation from the living room.
She envied them.
She did not have any siblings, so she could not empathize with their blood-rted kinship. However, every time she came into contact with the two of them, she would be touched once.
When she had first met Jing Zhi, she had seen the word brother in his palm.
Everyone in the Research Institute knew that Jing Zhi had lost his memory. He had been writing these two words over and over again before his memorypletely disappeared.
Of course, he didnt write with a pen. Instead, he used a needle and then soaked it in blue ink.
Because only in this way could he carve these two words into his heart like a tattoo.
Shuyin had always wondered what kind of brother was worth Jing Zhi remembering like that.
Until one day, when she started working with Jing Rui, she slowly learned about what he had done for Jing Zhi.
She finally understood that her brother was worth remembering!
In the future, if she became part of Jing Ruis life, he would protect her and her like he did to Jing Zhi.
She had met a rare good man!
Shuyin chuckled and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner with the new chef.
Jing Zhi and Jing Rui both had big appetites, so she was afraid that she would have to double the meal tonight.
In the room, Jing Zhi finally let go of Jing Ruis clothes. He climbed to the head of the bed, picked up the water that Shuyin had brought for him, and started to drink it.
Men were not as attentive as women. Although Jing Rui loved his brother very much, he was too angry to pour water for Jing Zhi after he got home.
Only Shuyin noticed that Jing Zhis lips were dry and pale. She brought him some warm water with a little salt.
Jing Zhi felt much better after drinking the water. He turned over and curled up on the bed.Brother, the shade of the tree is not bad. You have good taste.
Jing Rui looked at him coldly and said,do I need you to tell me? Youre not allowed to have any ideas about her!
He hadnt forgotten that Jing Zhi had told him that Shuyin was his girlfriend.
You cant even joke!
Jing Zhis face was full of pity,s, youre one step ahead! I also had my eyes on Shuyin, but I wanted to observe her for a while longer. In the end, she became your woman! Youre the older brother, shouldnt you give in to me?
This is impossible!
He could give in to other things, but not women.
Jing Rui refused without any hesitation.
Of course, he knew that Jing Zhi was just joking. If he liked Shuyin, he wouldnt have to do this for Zheng yuluo!
Shuyin and Zheng yuluo were twopletely different girls. It was impossible for Jing Zhi to like someone with Zheng yuluos style and someone with Shuyin s.
I think shes getting better and better. Shes usually cold and doesnt like to talk to people. Shes very straightforward when she rejects others, unlike some women who are always unclear with men. Shuyin was the one who treated me well at the most crucial moment. Not only did she treat my injuries, but she was also afraid that I would be thirsty and poured me water to drink. Unlike some women who only know how toin!
Jing Rui knew that he was referring to Zheng yuluo when he said some women.
He didnt know whether tough or cry. Jing Zhi seemed to be still ten years old, like a child who thought his candy wasnt as sweet as others and wanted to steal them.
Dont wrong a good person. Yinyin went to find Zheng yuluo, but that person was just Zheng yuluos friend. Theres nothing between them. Dont cause trouble for Lou Ziyi, the Lou family is supported by the Jing family. After Lou Ziyi was beaten by you, the Lou family even sent the heir to my father to show his loyalty. This matter ends here, and Lou Ziyi will never have any contact with Zheng yuluo again.
Jing Zhi always listened to his brother when it came to important matters.
The person he hated was not Lou Ziyi, but Zheng yuluo.
Even without Lou Ziyi, there would be Zhang Ziyi and Li Ziyi. He felt that Zheng yuluo was the one who attracted the bees and butterflies.
Ive already vented my anger by beating that Lou Ziyi half to death. Since the Lou family is our familys small fry, I wont hold it against them! If you want to fight in the future, youll have to fight Zheng yuluo!
Chapter 1106
Chapter 1106: The contest between father and son
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui didnt want to talk about Zheng yuluo with Jing Zhi. Every time she appeared, nothing good would happen to Jing Zhi. It was almost like a curse.
If the two of them continued to torment each other like this, one of them would definitely lose his life.
You smashed his bar. No one knows how much the wine you smashed was worth. He asked for more than three million Yuan, and you paid for it yourself!
Ive already seen it. The surveince cameras in the bar are all broken. Besides the waiter, there are no other witnesses. What can they do to me if I dont admit to it?
If this case happened in North America, Jing Zhi wouldnt have to bear any responsibility if he didnt admit to it without any solid evidence.
But they were in China, and Jing Zhi couldnt win awsuit like this without using his connections.
Dont try to show off. Since youve smashed their bar, you should pay as much as you should.
Jing Rui was not short of money, and thepensation was just to make his brother remember. He could not always be the one to mess around.
You are in charge of this. The bar, the police station, Zheng Jing, you take care of them one by one. I will not interfere. Its up to you how you handle it!
In Jing Ruis heart, his younger brother was also very outstanding.
His younger brother should not always live under his wings. He had already grown up, and one day, he would need to fly by himself.
He was capable, but hecked experience in dealing with things.
In the past, whenever something happened in North America, the Research Institute would settle it for him. He didnt need to worry at all.
Therefore, he was still as willful as a child and did not care about the consequences.
Jing Zhi could use this as practice.
Brother, youre not going to care about me anymore? Jing Zhi was obviously shocked.
Jing Ruis face turned cold. His brother was indeed very dependent on him.
What do you mean Im not going to care about you? This is your own business. Youre already an adult. Isnt it normal to clean up the mess you caused? Im only two years older than you!
But Im not as smart as you! You used to call me an idiot, so of course youre the one to handle this kind of mess! You take care of the bar and the police, and Ill be in charge of picking up girls!
Jing Rui was so angry that he almost fell over.
He was supposed to go on a date with Shuyin, who had just established a rtionship, this afternoon!
But Jing Zhi had ruined everything.
He hadnt said anything, and Jing Zhi had the nerve to pick up girls.
If this was not his brother, Jing Rui would have beaten him so badly that even his own mother would not be able to recognize him.
Jing Zhi saw that his brothers eyes were about to burst into mes. He shrank back and said pitifully,Brother, youre not going to hit me, are you? Look at me, theres nothing good about me, where are you going to start? Dont hit me, you can save it for now, and hit me when Im better!
He always had a way to please Jing Rui when he was about to lose his temper.
The fact that he could act pitiful now meant that he was in a better mood.
Jing Rui heaved a sigh of relief. On the way back, Jing Zhis face looked so bleak that it made people feel ufortable.
Jing Zhi, who liked to crack jokes, was more likable.
I can provide you with helpers,wyers, professionals in the field of ims, bodyguards, and so on. But you are in charge of this matter. I will lend you my men and you can fight against Zheng Jing. I can help you to resist the pressure from my father.
Jing Rui knew that Zheng Jing was close to Jing Yichen and that he might have talked to Jing Yichen about it. But he wanted to protect Jing Zhi and go against Jing Yichen.
He was just thinking about Jing Yichen when Jing Yichen called.
Jing Rui put the phone on speaker so that Jing Zhi could hear the conversation.
Dad, whats the matter?
Yes, its about ah Chi.
Jing Yichens low and short voice came from the phone.
Ah Chi is beside you, right?
Jing Zhi was amazed. Heughed and shouted into the phone,Uncle, how did you know that I was with my brother? Youre a half-fairy!
Jing Yichen chuckled,dont I know what you two are like? From your tone, it seems like youre fine.
Jing Zhis eyes rolled and he immediately wailed,Aiyo! Its so painful, my chest and back are full of injuries, and one of my legs is crippled! I cant sleep tonight, neither lying down nor lying down. Looks like Ill have to learn from the red-crowned crane and stand on one leg!
Jing Rui added,dad, Zhi is seriously injured. If you want to help bureau chief Zheng, you can forget about it. Ive spent so many years looking for him, not to let hime back and get beaten up!
They were father and son, so there was no need to beat around the bush.
Jing Rui knew that his father would always support him in whatever he did. As long as he made his stance clear, his father would not interfere.
The reason why he said it so coldly was actually for the people next to Jing Yichen to hear.
Zheng Jing was sitting next to Jing Yichen, feeling a bit embarrassed.
The father and son were so smart that Jing Yichen had guessed that Jing Rui was with Jing Zhi, and Jing Rui had also guessed that he was with Jing Yichen.
Okay, dad knows.
Jing Yichen had helped Zheng Jing enough.
If the two children wanted to fight, then let them fight!
It was one thing for him to have a good rtionship with Zheng Jing, but it was another thing for his nephew to be beaten up.
Jing Yichen put away his cell phone, turned off the speaker and said calmly,Son, your mom misses you. She wants you toe home for dinner. Also, your sister has caused trouble at school again. Remember to go to school tomorrow and apologize to the teacher. If the school wantspensation, you can just give it to them as you see fit.
Jing Rui ignored Jing Yichens first sentence, because he had just talked to Shangguan ning on the phonest night. His mothers attention was no longer on him, but on her future daughter-inw.
When he heard that Jing Xi had gotten into trouble again, he almost went crazy!
He had only been in school for a day, and he had actually gotten into trouble again!
Dad, I have a lot of things to do tomorrow. You should go to school and solve your sisters problem! Anyway, youre familiar with the teachers in the school and youre a parent. Itll be more sincere when you go!
Oh, Im going on a business trip tomorrow and wont be in A city, so Ill need you to take care of your sister.
The father and son kept pushing each other around. Neither of them was willing to go to school and embarrass themselves.
Because of the little devil at home, the two of them were so worried that their hair was almost white!
Dad, can we just give Xixi away? If we let her continue like this, well donate all our money to education!
Im afraid not. If you give your sister away, your mother will probably give me away as well. Son, you dont want to change your father, do you?
Well ... Jing Rui said calmly, trying not tough.As long as I can send Xixi away, Ill do it even if its another father!
Chapter 1107
Chapter 1107: This is my wife, stay away
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Yichen red at her,since you are so cruel, then I will leave your sister to you! You have to be responsible as her brother. Xixis school, love, and marriage are all your responsibilities!
I did all this, what are you doing?
Ill take your mother to travel the world.
Jing Zhi and Zheng Jing were dumbfounded by the sudden change of attitude between the father and son.
Jing Zhi was still looking at Jing Rui after he hung up the phone. Jing Rui asked,Whats wrong?
Brother, Ive always thought that you and uncle were both decent people.
How are we not decent people? Jing Rui was displeased.
How can you nder little Xixi like this! Shes so pretty, cute, obedient, and sensible ...
Mm, then Ill leave her to you in the future! Youll be in charge of bringing her back from school tomorrow, and alsopensate the school.
No, no, no, forget it! Look, Im still injured, its not convenient for me to go out! This ghostly appearance will easily embarrass you. Id better stay at home!
Its okay, Im not afraid that youll embarrass me. Dont worry and just go.
He was afraid that he would embarrass himself in school!
Jing Zhi should be the one to do this kind of embarrassing thing. He was thick-skinned and didnt even care about going to the police station. He would just let Jing Zhi bear the resentful looks from the teachers and parents at school.
Jing Rui left after he finished speaking, leaving Jing Zhi standing there, stunned.
Could it be that he was going to be the little devilspanion in the future?
He was fighting with the police while taking care of the child?
Whether Jing Zhi liked it or not, he packed up and went tondscapepound the next day to send Jing Xi to school.
Jing Zhi went up to the twenty-seventh floor and knocked on the door.
It was Shangguan ning who opened the door. She was stunned when she saw Jing Zhi.Ah Chi? Why are you here? Quicklye in!
Jing Zhi smiled as he walked in.Auntie, brother asked me to send Xixi to school!
Jing Xi ran out of her room with her little bag on her back.Second brother, you must have been deceived by our brother! He didnt want to send me to school, so he tricked you into going!
Jing Zhis scalp went numb when he saw Jing Xis cheeky little face.
He wanted to cry but had no tears. He was not fooled at all, he was forced!
Did Jing Xi think that he was so stupid that he didnt know that she always liked to cause trouble?
Shangguan ning pulled her daughter aside to stop her from causing more trouble.
Ah Chi, can you do it? Wasnt he injured yesterday? I can see that there are many bruises and scars on your face. What about your body? Your brother knows that youre injured, but he still asked you to send Xixi back.
As Shangguan ning spoke, she took Jing Zhis hand and rolled up his sleeve. She was heartbroken when she saw the wounds on his arm.
You silly child, why didnt you mention family Jings name when someone hit you? As long as you say that your surname is Jing, no one in A city would dare to touch you.
After being with Jing Yichen for a long time, Shangguan ning had be overbearing.
Why are these people so heavy-handed? Tell your brother to take care of the people who bullied you!
Jing Zhi was overjoyed. This was family!
He held Shangguan ning in his arms excitedly. In order to express his joy, he lowered his head and tried to kiss Shangguan nings face.
Of course, no matter how hard he tried, he did not kiss her.
Because arge hand was pulling his ear hard.
You brat, this is my wife, stay away from her!
Jing Zhi grimaced in pain, but he held on to Shangguan ning and refused to let go.
He turned around and saw Jing Yichens cold face, as if he was going to kill him with his eyes.
My Auntie dotes on me so I kissed her to show my closeness to her! Uncle, youre too stingy!
She doesnt need you to get close to her. Yesterday, he said that he was seriously injured and had to sleep standing up. Why was he so lively today? It seems that I have to tell Zheng Jing that you have lied about your injury.
Jing Zhi pursed his lips and let go of Shangguan ning unwillingly.
Uncle is really not cute at all!
He wanted toin to the director of the Public Security Bureau!
He could only pick up little Jing Xi and kiss her on the cheek as if he was demonstrating his strength.
If you wont let me kiss your wife, then Ill kiss your daughter!
Jing Yichen waspletely displeased.
His daughter didnt want Jing Zhi to kiss her, and she didnt want him to hold her either.
Second brother, you cant kiss me! Im a big girl now! I need a boyfriend! Jing Xi protested.
Jing Zhi was speechless. How old was this girl? she was already looking for a boyfriend?
He pinched Jing Xis little face and said seriously,Youll need at least ten years before you can find a boyfriend. As for now, we have to go to school!
Jing Zhi said goodbye to Shangguan ning and left with Jing Xi in his arms, ignoring Jing Yichen.
After they got into the car, Jing Xi asked,second brother, wheres my sister Shuyin? I dont want to go to school today, I want to y with sister Shuyin!
No! You must go to school!
Jing Zhi rejected her immediately. He hadnt been to school and had been either ab rat or a murderer for the past seven or eight years. He had never had a peaceful life.
He hoped that Jing Xi could go to school like an ordinary child and get to know her ssmates and teachers. Only then would she have no regrets when she grew up.
She had Jing Rui and him to protect her, so she did not need to struggle at all. She just needed to be a little princess.
Jing Xi had thought that Jing Zhi would be easier to talk to, but just like Jing Rui, he also wanted to send her to school.
How annoying, why didnt these two brothers understand? Primary school was no longer attractive to her. University was more interesting!
My teacher talked about addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division all day long, such as hoeing at noon, ABC, etc. I learned these things when I was in my mothers stomach! Im going to learn gic engineering and viral pathology from sister Shuyin!
Jing Zhi burst intoughter.
The little girl was getting better at bragging!
No, your sister Shuyin is busy dating. She might be your sister-inw in a few days. You cant mess things up!
Really? Jing Xis eyes lit up. Thats great!
Since she was busy dating, she really couldnt disturb him.
Jing Zhi was shocked when he arrived at the school.
Because the schools weing party for him and Jing Xi was too Grand!
An old man who looked like a principal stood at the very front. Behind him were several rows of teachers. Behind them were a dense crowd of primary school students, and behind them were many silent parents.
Jing Zhi didnt dare to get out of the car. He asked Jing Xi, who was sitting in the passenger seat,Sister, what did you do? Why does it look like theyre going to hold a memorial service?
Jing Xi fiddled with the string of bullet-shaped wind chimes she had made. She blinked and said,No, I just did a small virus experiment yesterday. No one died!
Chapter 1108
Chapter 1108: The little witchs tricks
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi shivered and almost stepped on the gas pedal and ran out of the school.
A virus experiment?
Jing Zhi looked out of the car window at the crowd of teachers and students. He felt as cold as if he had fallen into an ice hole.
The little devil couldnt be using the entire school as an experiment, right?
What virus?
Shuyin was cautious by nature and took good care of Jing Xi. She would definitely not give Jing Xi the virus.
Did Jing Xie up with a new type of virus?
It really took his life!
He finally understood why Jing Yichen and Jing Rui refused to send Jing Xi to school.
Jing Zhi didnt have any psychological barrier when it came to killing people, but he couldnt touch a single student or teacher. He had to speak to them nicely and apologize. It was a huge psychological barrier for him!
If he had known, he would have stayed in the police station!
With such a sister, the pressure was as high as a mountain!
Jing Zhis mouth was a little dry. He swallowed and touched the check that Jing Rui had given himst night. Finally, he got out of the car and walked to the principal with Jing Xi.
The principal saw an unfamiliar face and didnt know who Jing Zhi was to Jing Xi, but seeing that Jing Xi let him hold her hand, he knew that it must be someone close to him.
He stepped forward and grabbed Jing Zhis hand, tears streaming down his face.Youre Jing Xis parent, right? Youre finally here! Youve finally arrived! Please save my teachers and children. Ill kowtow to you!
The old principal was about to kneel down as he spoke, which startled Jing Zhi.
Why didnt this old man y by the rules!
Shouldnt the principal question the parents when the little devil got into trouble?
Why did he have to kneel and kowtow?
Jing Zhi was good at dealing with bad people, but he was a little flustered when it came to good people.
He supported the old principal with all his might, not letting him kneel. Lets talk this out! I cant ept such a big bow from you at your age!
Jing Zhi suspected that his sister had driven the principal crazy. Otherwise, the old man would not have knelt down in front of the whole school without caring about his dignity.
Jing Zhi wasnt even this nervous when he killed someone for the first time!
Fine beads of sweat seeped out of his forehead, and he hurriedly said,Dont worry, principal. Im Jing Xis second brother. If theres a problem, Ill definitely solve it. My sister is young and insensible. Ill have to trouble your school to educate her!
The principal wanted to tell them that their school was not able to teach them anything, but family Jing had no intention of transferring schools, so whatever he said was useless.
the most important thing was to solve the problem!
the jing family had always been nice to her, and the new brother of jing xi didnt seem to be an unreasonable person.
Second brother, please take a look. All the teachers and students in our school have been poisoned! Jing Xi...Youre too generous. All the parents are here today. Im so stressed that I cant breathe!
The old principal didnt care about his age and called Jing Zhi second brother. Jing Zhi almost choked on his own saliva.
The old principal beckoned to the teachers behind him. Then, a few teachers brought a few students to the front and rolled up their sleeves with a sad face, revealing their arms.
Jing Zhi almost passed out when he saw what it was.
The arms of the teachers and students were all covered with terrifying ck lines that seeped out from the inside. It was like those in martial arts movies who had been poisoned and had no cure!
If one looked closely, one would notice that these people also had thin ck lines on their faces, but they were not as obvious as the ones on their arms.
Jing Zhi had been in the Research Institute for a long time. Although he wasnt as proficient in viruses as Shuyin was, he could still recognize what virus it was at a nce.
The virus was not fatal and would not affect ones health, but it had a painful effect: Hair loss!
Jing Zhi nced at the students and teachers and immediately understood why the principal would rather kneel down to him.
If this virus was not treated in time, within the next week, all his hair would fall offpletely!
When all the hair fell off, the ck lines would disappear, and then the hair would slowly grow back.
It was not hard to imagine that in the future, the people going in and out of this school would be bald heads!
With so many light bulbs, the school could save electricity!
The bald teacher was lecturing on the podium, and below him was a ssroom full of little bald heads. This kind of pleasure was simply unimaginable!
Jing Zhis hearing was very good. He could already hear the parents behind him crying in low voices, as if they felt that their children would not live for long.
Many people probably didnt know that this virus wasnt fatal. When they saw the terrifying ck lines on the childs body, they must have thought that the child was going to die!
Jing Zhis body stiffened. He forced a smile that was uglier than a crying face and promised everyone, Its okay, its okay. Dont be afraid. This virus is not fatal. Family Jing will invite experts to treat it and it will be gone in two days.
This virus could not survive for long in the human body. At most, the ck lines would disappear in half a month.
However, this matter could easily cause panic. The parents were not virologist, so it was better to solve it as soon as possible!
The old principal thought Jing Zhis voice was like the sound of nature. His thin hands trembled as he asked hopefully,Second brother, can this poison be cured? Are my teacher and my child really fine?
Jing Zhi said firmly,dont worry, principal, I promise theyll be fine. Tell the children to go back to the ssroom. Ill contact an expert to detoxify the poison! Family Jing will alsopensate for the mental trauma caused to the children.
Before she came, her brother had already said that she shouldpensate him!
It was his brothers money anyway, so Jing Zhi didnt care.
After finally appeasing the principal and teachers, the children went back to the ssroom, and the parents were arranged to stay in the guest rooms. Jing Zhi took Jing Xi back to the car and called his brother for help.
He knew about this virus, but he didnt know how to cure it. Only Shuyin could!
Brother, let my sister-inwe and save the day! Our younger sister is in big trouble. Dark clouds are pressing down on us, and I, your younger brother, cant hold on any longer!
He had originally called her little Shenshu, but since he was going to use Shuyin today, he directly changed to calling her sister-inw!
When Shuyin found out about this, she quickly exined to Jing Rui,Ive never taught Xixi how to extract this virus!
It would be troublesome if Jing Rui misunderstood that she had led Jing Xi astray.
Jing Rui smiled helplessly.Its okay. She is very smart. It has nothing to do with you. She doesnt need to be taught about simple viruses. She can extract them as long as she reads more information. My dad said the day before yesterday that Xixi made a lot of bottles and jars at home, and shes probably doing this.
Shuyin heaved a sigh of relief as long as she didnt me her.

Then take me to the hospital. I need a lot of materials to make the medicine. This virus has a weak life force and is easy to solve.
Shuyin didnt even bother to change her clothes. She carried her bag and walked out.
The virus wasnt fatal, but the child must have started to lose hair. He couldnt dy it.
In order to show his solemnity, Jing Rui not only took Shuyin to school after she had finished preparing the medicine, but also sent a hundred doctors and nurses from family MUs Hospital to the primary school. They allnded in the elementary school by helicopter instead of by bus.
Shuyin wore a white coat and walked in front. She went to talk to the principal with a cold expression.
She didnt mean to be cold. She had always been like this to outsiders.
The rest of the doctors and nurses followed behind her in an orderly manner. No one said anything. Her aura was extraordinarily strong.
The principal had originally been suspicious of how Shuyin could be a virologist at such a young age. However, after seeing her team and hearing her professional exnation, all his doubts were dispelled.
After he personally tested it and saw that the ck line on his arm had magically disappeared, he finally cried with joy.Dr. Shu, youre really a great Savior! On behalf of all the teachers and students in the school, I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to you! Ill definitely get the school to send you a silk banner!
The old principal said as he bowed to Shu Yin.
Shuyin was shocked and quickly held him.This is what I should do!
It was clearly Jing Xi who had caused trouble, but the old principal still wanted to give her a silk banner. Shuyin felt a little sorry for him, because after all, Jing Xi had learned how to refine viruses from her.
The virus was resolved very smoothly. An hourter, the ck lines on the skin of all the teachers and students in the school had disappeared.
The teachers hugged their heads and cried. The parents also hugged their children and cried. They finally didnt have to die!
Jing Xi didnt understand why they were so scared. She rolled up her sleeves and ran to the principal.Grandpa principal, look, Im also poisoned. Im not crying, so why are you crying? Theyre all crying so miserably, but they wont die!
The principal wiped away his tears and saw that Jing Xis fair and tender arms were also covered in ck lines. He was so scared that his legs went soft.
He quickly pulled Jing Xi in front of Shu Yin and said,Doctor Shu, theres another one here! Quickly give her an injection!
Okay, Shuyin said, holding Jing Xis hand.Ill take care of her.
After the principal left, Shuyin pped Jing Xis little butt twice and said seriously,Xixi, why dont you let yourself off? Dont do this in the future! Sit tight, Ill give you an injection.
It didnt hurt at all when Shuyin hit her, and Jing Xi didnt care at all.
He had been pped twice by Jing Zhi, and it had hurt.
She sat down obediently and let Shuyin give her an injection.
Its terrible to be uncultured. Its just a little virus. At most, youll lose your hair. Why are you all crying like this? I want to cry too!
Shuyin shook her head helplessly. This little girl really knew how to get into trouble, and she didnt think that she had done anything wrong.
Although she was young, she had a good body and a good resistance.
Shuyin guessed that Shangguan ning must have taken the best nutrition when she was pregnant with Jing Xi and changed Jing Xis body.
Jing Xi had said before that she never caught a cold.
So, for the same virus, the other children were more annoyed, but Jing Xis was lighter, and there was no sign of it on her face, so Jing Zhi didnt notice that Jing Xi had the same problem.
Jing Zhi had just finishedforting his parents and was about to walk up to Jing Xi when he saw the ck lines on her arm slowly disappearing.
He was so angry that he wanted to give Jing Xi two more ps.Are you stupid? Its fine to test it on others, but why are you also using yourself as a test subject?
Jing Xi smiled and ignored him. She stood up from the chair and pulled on Jing Zhis sleeve.Eh, second brother, why are you fine?
Jing Zhi was a little confused. What do I need?
When you kissed me this morning, I also put some of the virus on you. Why arent there any ck lines on your arm?
Jing Zhi didnt have any ck lines on his arm, but his face was full of ck lines.
It turned out that the little girl had also tricked him without saying anything!
He had been wondering why Jing Xi had been so obedient today and had not tried to get close to him.
It turned out that she had already stretched out her hand, but this time, she was lucky and didnt fall for it!
Jing Zhi was suddenly not afraid of Jing Xi ying with the virus anymore. After all, the virus in his body was the most dangerous in the world. He was not afraid of anything!
Hmph, little Xixi, youve finally kicked an iron te! I, your second brother, am immune to poison. Even Shuyin cant do anything to me, let alone you!
Jing Xi knew that Jing Zhi and Jing Rui had the virus. Her mother had also told her not to touch the blood of her two brothers in case it caused an infection.
However, she did not expect the virus to be so high-end!
Second brother, second brother, I also want a virus like this! I also want to be immune to poison!
Shuyins expression changed.No! Xixi!
No one knew the toxicity of the virus better than she did. A child only needed one night to cause aplete disorder in the body function. There was no cure!
Jing Zhi didnt react as strongly as Shuyin. He patted his sisters head and said with a smile,Dont let your imagination run wild. No one can withstand this virus. Youre not allowed to steal my blood while Im asleep!
But my brother has it too, Jing Xi said.How can he take it? Youre lying to me!
Impossible! Shu Yin looked at Jing Xi in shock.Thats impossible!
In order to test the fusion of humans with the virus, arge number of researchers died every year, as well as arge number of animals used for experiments.
In the past seven years, out of the tens of thousands of test subjects, not a single one had seeded!
Shuyin had been deeply influenced by this idea, so she didnt believe Jing Xi at all.
The virus in your brothers body should be of another type. Its definitely different from your second brother s.
Jing Zhi covered Jing Xis mouth and stopped her from talking. He said to Shuyin with a smile,The child doesnt know any better and is talking nonsense! Of course, my brothers and mine are different!
Jing Xi whimpered. She wanted to tell Shuyin that they were the same brother, but she couldnt say a word.
Shuyin didnt believe it at first, but Jing Zhis behavior was a little unusual. He subconsciously covered Jing Xis mouth to stop her from continuing.
ording to the psychological exnation, this was a sign of guilt.
In other words, Jing Xi was probably telling the truth!
Shuyins clear eyes were filled with disbelief!
She wanted to drag Jing Rui, who was on the phone in the helicopter, over and take some blood for testing.
Thousands of people in the Research Institute had been working on this problem for seven years. Had family Jing solved it?
Chapter 1110
Chapter 1110: Lets break up
Trantor: 549690339
In the end, Shu Yin restrained her impulse.
She shook her head, still feeling that the possibility was not high.
Jing Xi was still too young to tell the difference between two advanced viruses. She must have misunderstood.
Moreover, the virus was a huge secret of a persons body, so she should not have pried into it no matter what.
At the very least, she could not pry into Jing Ruis rtionship with her.
Jing Rui would only tell her the truth if she was trustworthy enough.
Shuyin took a deep breath and forced herself to forget about this matter.
Although it might be rted to a big secret, she did not want to ruin her rtionship with Jing Rui.
The thing she hated the most in her life was being a virus tester. She had to constantly inject the virus and have her blood drawn for testing again and again.
She would not do that to Jing Rui.
The shock and excitement in Shuyins eyes disappeared. She raised her head to look at Jing Zhi and smiled. Dont worry, I wont do anything.
I believe you! Jing Zhiughed.
However, in reality, he couldntpletely trust Shuyin.
Perhaps Shuyin would not do anything now, even if she knew the secret of Jing Ruis body. ording to her character, she would not harm her brother.
However, he and his brother were still hiding a huge secret!
Shucheng Shan was dead!
In the future, if Shuyin found out the truth, would she still be able to speak with a calm smile like today?
Jing Zhi didnt want to take the risk. He only had one brother and he wouldnt want his brother to be in any danger.
He was smiling, but he was a little down. He picked Jing Xi up and stuffed her into the car.
Jing Xi was smart. She knew that she had said something she shouldnt have.
She was still young, after all, and had no idea about the feud between Jing Rui and Shuyin. She just liked Shuyin out of instinct and felt that Shuyin was a kind person.
She didnt treat Shuyin as an outsider, which was why she told her brother about it.
Second brother, cant we let sister Shuyin know about this?
Jing Zhi touched her head and said in a low voice,You can t, Xixi. There are too many things involved in this. Big brother has always been protecting us, so we should learn to protect big brother. In the future, you cant tell anyone, understand?
But didnt you say that she would be my sister-inw in the future? If she were to marry brother, would she be able to keep it a secret?
Jing Zhi smiled wryly. If they were married, they wouldnt be able to hide it.
Shuyin was the top talent in this field. She didnt need to get married at all. As long as she got close to Jing Rui a few times, she would definitely find out something was wrong.
Because Jing Ruis physical characteristics were too simr to his.
Not afraid of any other viruses, outstanding vision and hearing,rge appetite, strong recovery ability, heart rate lower than the lowest human heart rate, body temperature low all year round ...
There was only one virus in the world that could produce such characteristics.
I hope my brother didnt pick the wrong person, Jing Zhi sighed.
Shuyin watched as Jing Zhi carried Jing Xi away. The two of them were talking in the car, and she would asionally nce at her.
The premonition in her heart suddenly became stronger!
There must be something wrong with Jing Ruis virus!
Otherwise, Jing Zhi and Jing Xi would not have left her behind and ran into the car to talk.
Jing Xi used to like her very much. She liked to stick to her and asked her all kinds of questions about the virus.
Jing Zhi wasnt the kind of person who looked warm but was actually cold.
She had grown up in a man-eating environment and had long learned how to read peoples expressions.
Shuyin smiled bitterly. She hadnt even done anything yet, and the two of them were already starting to distance themselves.
The parents in the distance left the school with their children one after another. After such an incident, the school had a day off.
Some of them were crying, some wereughing, but it was obvious that they all loved their children.
Shuyin stood there all alone, and a strong sense of loneliness rose in her heart.
She had always thought that she could not blend in with the crowd in North America because she was of a different race.
But here, everyone had yellow skin, ck hair, and ck eyes. She seemed to be the only one.
A little rtionship could make a good rtionship fall apart.
It would be a lie to say that she didnt feel bad. Shuyin really loved Jing Xi and treated her as her sister. She also treated Jing Zhi as one of her only two friends.
Its fine. Shes used to being alone anyway. Didnt she still live well even when she had no friends or family?
Shuyin consoled herself in her heart.
Even her parents didnt want her anymore, so why would anyone care about her?
The spring breeze was slightly cool, blowing a cold heart that had just warmed up.
In the world of emotions, as long as ones heart wasnt moved, one could be invincible.
Friendship, family, love, they were all the same.
She should still be the cold Shuyin, so cold that she didnt cry even when she was abandoned, so cold that she didnt beg for mercy even when she was skinned alive.
She had a heart as strong as steel. Even if she was struck by lightning, her body would only be a bloody mess, but her heart would not bleed.
Steady footsteps came from behind her, but Shu Yin didnt turn around.
Whats wrong? why are you standing here in the cold wind?
His calm voice made Shuyins heart tremble. However, she heard herself say in an extremely calm voice,Im fine. Everyones been cured of the virus. The principal said that he would give me a silk banner.
Shuyins tone was cold as usual, and she maintained a strong sense of wariness towards outsiders.
But that was only to outsiders, and not to Jing Rui. She had not talked to him like that for a long time.
Jing Rui didnt like her cold attitude, as if she was going to disappear the next moment.
Where was her liveliness?
It wasnt like this when he came!
Jing Ruipletely ignored the gazes of the people around him, and did not care that Jing Zhi and Jing Xi were looking at him and Shuyin.
He held Shu Yins cold hands and pulled her into his arms. He said in a threatening tone,Yinyin, Im warning you. If you have something to say, say it. You didnt say anything and treated me so coldly. Dont me me for having sex with you when I get back!
It was Shuyins first time being intimate with Jing Rui without blushing, and in public.
Im not making a fuss. Im probably just a little tired,she said with a faint smile.
Jing Rui would never believe her!
In the past, Shuyins face would turn red whenever he touched her hand. Today, he hugged and hugged her, but she didnt react at all!
His IQ and EQ were way above Shuyin s. To others, Shuyins pretense might be extremely realistic, but to him, Shuyin was like a bowl of water. He knew all of her emotions.
He reached out and wrapped his arm around Shuyins waist, pressing her full chest tightly against his.
Yinyin, were a couple now. Im your boyfriend. I said something wrong just now. Id rather you throw a tantrum at me than be so rational. Youre acting like a subordinate, not like my woman, just like when we worked together in the past.
Shuyin pushed him away. She still had a faint smile on her face, but the words she said were like a sharp knife.
Jing Rui, lets break up!
Chapter 1111
Chapter 1111: Whos more ruthless between us?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui almost thought that he had heard wrong.
He was born into a grand family and was an outstanding genius. He was almost omnipotent and had been proud since he was young!
He had never thought that he would be kicked by a woman one day!
He was so angry that even his liver was hurting. He gritted his teeth and said,Say that again?
Youve already heard it.
Shu Yins voice was calm and she always had a smile on her face, but her eyes didnt show any signs of smiling.
From top to bottom, from inside to outside, she exuded a faint sorrow.
But it was not because they had broken up, but for some other reason that Jing Rui did not know.
Jing Rui had never felt so aggrieved in his life.
He thought of himself as a genius and always felt that everything in the world was under his control. However, ever since Shuyin appeared in his life, his control had lost its effectiveness!
He did everything with his heart, but love was the only thing that he had trouble with.
And now, his girlfriend wanted to break up with him, but he had no idea why!
Jing Rui hated the word break up.
Who invented this word?
It pierced his heart just by listening to it!
Jing Rui ignored Shuyins cold gaze and stepped forward to grab her wrist. He squeezed it and asked,
I told you to make a scene, and you really did? When did you be so obedient?
She felt pain in her wrist, but she didnt struggle.
She just looked at Jing Rui quietly, as if she wanted to see what he was thinking.
She sighed in her heart. So handsome!
Even when he was angry, he was still so handsome and full of charm.
After falling for him in this life, she would never fall for another man in the future.
Will we still be friends in the future?
Impossible!
Jing Rui denied it coldly.
What friend!
He would be her man in the future, her only man!
So ruthless?
Whos more ruthless between us?
Same to you. Shuyin smiled faintly.
She tried to break free from Jing Ruis hand, but Jing Ruis eyes were cold. Dont leave!
Let go, my wrist hurts.
If you have the ability, then cut off this hand! Cut mine, or cut your own!
Of course, Shuyin would not cut off her own hand, nor would she bear to cut off Jing Rui s.
She moved forward slowly and got close to Jing Rui. Then she lowered her head and bit his shoulder.
She slowly applied force, and her teeth bit into his muscles.
Jing Rui understood what she meant immediately.
She waspeting with him!
To see if she should bite his skin and touch his blood first, or if he would let go of her hand and let her go out of concern for her safety!
Because he had told her countless times not to bite his skin, because his blood contained a deadly virus.
He couldnt afford to gamble!
So, before Shu Yin could apply more force, he immediately let go of her wrist.
Shuyin let go of her teeth, turned around, and left step by step.
He couldnt bear to let her touch his blood. He cared about her.
However, this also meant that there was indeed a problem with his blood.
Other than the powerful virus in Jing Zhis body, Shuyin had never seen anyone die from blood contact!
Lets just pretend that I never knew about this secret!
Once it was revealed, it would definitely lead to a bloodbath.
Although the Research Institute had fallen apart, most of the researchers were still alive. They had either gone into hiding or done something else for their own interests.
The Research Institute was backed by several of the most powerful developed countries. Once there were higher interests, the Research Institute was likely to be reorganized in a short time.
This secret would end with her.
Jing Ruis heart grew colder and emptier as he watched Shuyin leave him.
She wasnt throwing a tantrum with him, and she wasnt being willful. She had really decided to leave him!
Not only did she have a stunning appearance, but she also had a strong belief and enough courage. She was strong and courageous, never willing to rely on him.
Jing Rui clenched his fists. Not enough, far from enough!
There wasnt even a misunderstanding between them, and she had left him. Their rtionship was as fragile as paper!
His initial goal was for Shuyin to be unwilling to leave him even after knowing what happened at Shucheng mountain!
Now, she was about to leave without even knowing about this.
No, wait, did she know?
Jing Ruis eyes drifted to Jing Zhi, who was sitting in the car not far away. Only Jing Zhi knew about this.
Did he let it slip?
Jing Zhi and Jing Xi, who were sitting in the car, had no idea that they had gotten into trouble again. They had forgotten about Shuyin and were fighting for the snacks desperately.
There was not a single book in Jing Xis bag. It was all food.
It was as if Jing Zhi had discovered a new world. He didnt care that he was ten years older than Jing Xi and started to fight for the candy with an eight-year-old child.
When he got his wish and managed to get the orange-vored bubblegum, he blew out arge white bubble and noticed his brothers cold gaze.
The big bubble burst with a pop and covered Jing Zhis face.
But he couldnt care about cleaning up the bubble gum because he realized that Shuyin was gone!
Werent she just cuddling with her brother?
Where was he?
Several helicopters had already left the school with the medical staff under Han Fengsmand. Jing Rui was the only one left standing in the field.
Even Han Feng, who was always by Jing Ruis side, was nowhere to be seen.
Could Shuyin have left with the helicopter?
Jing Zhi was confused. He opened the door and waved at Jing Rui.Brother,e here! We can go home now, the school is on holiday today!
Jing Rui walked over and sat in the back of the car. He asked coldly,What did you say to Shuyin?
Ah? He didnt say anything!
Jing Zhi felt a little guilty. He peeked at his brother through the rearview mirror and saw his brothers pale face. He felt even more guilty.
Um ... I just took Xixi away from her. Shes not angry because of that, is she? he asked.
Why did you take Xixi away from her? Jing Rui frowned.
He suddenly remembered that when he saw Shuyin just now, she was standing there alone. Jing Zhi and Jing Xi were in the car!
He hadnt paid much attention to this small detail, but it turned out that Jing Zhi had done it on purpose.
It seemed that the Shucheng mountain incident was not leaked.
Jing Rui heaved a sigh of relief, but got even angrier.
Since it wasnt about Shucheng mountain, why did Shuyin leave him?
What did Jing Zhi do?
This was the first time Jing Xi had seen her brother get angry. She could not let her second brother take the me for her.
Brother, she whispered guiltily,I identally told you that you and second brother have the same virus. I thought sister Shuyin knew!
Jing Rui didnt intend to keep it a secret from Shuyin for too long, so it didnt matter if Jing Xi told him.
Chapter 1112
Chapter 1112: Brother and sister are not cute anymore
Trantor: 549690339
However, Shuyin should be shocked and in disbelief if she knew about this. She should even look for him to confirm it. How could she break up with him?
Jing Rui knew very well that Shuyin would never break up with him just because he had the virus.
The virus might be very scary to others, and ordinary girls might not be able to ept it.
However, Shuyin was different. To her, viruses were just a verymon thing. She didnt hate them at all. She would only work hard to study and find viruses that were beneficial to the human body and suppress those that were harmful.
What else?
Jing Zhi scratched his head and repeated what had happened.
You didnt admit to the virus in my body?
Yeah, Im afraid shell do something to you! The people at the Research Institute are all crazy. Shuyin looks normal, but when ites to viruses, she might not be able to control her desire to do research.
So, you took Xixi away from her?
I was just afraid that Xixi would spill the beans, so I brought her to the car to y. Oh, right, Xixi was infected by the virus herself. Shuyin gave her an injection and shes fine now.
Jing Rui finally understood why Shuyin wanted to leave him.
She must have felt that she had never blended in with the three of them. The three of them knew amon secret, and she had been immediately rejected after identally prying into this secret.
Even he himself was hiding this secret. Perhaps it was this distrust that made Shu Yins heart turn cold.
However, this secret was insignificantpared to the incident at Shucheng mountain!
Jing Rui closed his eyes and said,Chi, lets drive. Well send Xixi home first, then you can go and deal with your mess.
Brother, what about you?
Im going to get my woman back!
Jing Zhi and Jing Xi stared at each other! They finally realized that they had caused trouble.
Where did Shuyin go? Jing Zhi asked.
I dont know yet. Han Feng is following her.
No wonder the cold wind had disappeared!
Im fine! Girls needed to throw tantrums, and Shuyins behavior was already very normal. Didnt they always act like this on television? You coax her, shell be fine soon!
No, she broke up with me.
Jing Zhi was dumbfounded.
Ah, brother, Ill take Xixi to exin to her! She might have misunderstood!
It would be great if it was really a misunderstanding!
Unfortunately, it wasn t.
They were originally very close, but todays incident had directly exposed their estrangement.
Jing Rui could understand Shuyins concern and self-protection, but Jing Zhi could not.
Seeing his brothers cold face and silence, he said angrily,Ive spoiled her! In the future, if she didnt listen to him, he would just beat her up. She would definitely listen to him! Forget it, I dont want her anymore! Big brother, Ill find you someone prettier than her!
Jing Rui red at him.Shut up! Start the car!
Jing Zhi started the car, but he didnt shut his mouth.
Big brother, look, were really brothers! Lets go to the bar for a drink tonight. He was drunk! When you wake up, youll forget all your unhappiness, and maybe youll even have a wonderful one-night stand!
Jing Rui said mercilessly,we are only cousins, and your father and mine do not have the same mother. Who said that Im out of love? My girlfriend is just throwing a tantrum. Your girlfriend is the one who really doesnt want you anymore!
Jing Zhi snorted and ignored Jing Rui.
Such a vicious mouth, not cute at all!
No wonder Shuyin wanted to break up with him!
Xixi was the best. Although ... She was demonic, she knew how to share good food with him!
Xixi, I just spat out my bubble gum. Give me another one!
Jing Xi obediently peeled off a bubble gum and stuffed it into Jing Zhis mouth.
Jing Zhi took a bite out of it.
And then ... He felt smoke rising from his body!
This wasnt a bubble gum, this was clearly a concentrated version of fiery hot chili powder! There was probably pepper and mustard in it!
It was numbing, spicy, and choking!
Jing Zhi burst into tears.Cough, cough, cough ... Little sister, you shouldnt trick your brother like this!
The little girl argued,not only did you snatch my sugar, but you also made my sister-inw leave! Compensate me for my sister-inw! Cant we just tell sister-inw the truth? Youre the one who didnt want me to say it. Wuwuwu, its all your fault, all your fault!
Jing Xi burst into tears.
The plot had changed so quickly that the two brothers, Jing Rui and Jing Zhi, could not react in time.
Jing Zhis eyes were also teary, but he had been stung by the spiciness. Although he had spat out the chili sugar, his tongue was already numb.
This brat, it was clearly her who had let the cat out of the bag, yet she was still ming him!
A brat was not cute at all!
Hmph, the brother and sister are not cute anymore!
After Jing Zhi saw his sister and brother off, he returned to the vi alone. He couldnt help but feel guilty.
He knew that he had been too petty.
Come to think of it, Shuyin was different from those lunatics in the Research Institute.
Although she was also interested in his virus, she had never taken his blood on her own initiative.
On the contrary, when they were in the Research Institute, she had always protected him and blocked his blood draw countless times.
Jing Zhi couldnt care less about the bar and the police. He got back into his car and went out to apologize to Shuyin.
It was a pity that he didnt know where Shuyin was. He called Han Feng to ask, but Han Feng refused to tell him. He could only drive aimlessly on the street.
A slender figure walked out from the side of the road and blocked his car.
Jing Zhi mmed on the brakes and almost knocked the man off his feet.
Fortunately, he didnt drive fast today. Fortunately, he had quick reflexes. Fortunately, the car his brother gave him had excellent performance!
Otherwise, the person in front of the car would not have been spared!
Jing Zhi unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car in a fit of anger.
Zheng yuluo, are you F * cking crazy? If you want to die, go jump off the building. If you die, Ill have to burn joss paper for you! My car is worth a few million. If a drop of blood stters on it and a screw breaks, can you afford to pay for it?
Zheng yuluo herself knew that what she had done just now was very dangerous.
Jing Zhi thought that he was driving slowly today, but that waspared to his previous driving. In fact, he had always driven as if he were flying. If he had stopped a little slower just now, Zheng yuluo felt that she would have to say goodbye to the world.
But Jing Zhi wouldnt have stopped the car to talk to her if she hadnt done that.
Zheng yuluo looked at his angry face, but she was not angry.
His anger at her at least proved that he still cared about her.
If he treated her as coldly as Jing Rui did, it would make her feel hopeless.
Jing Zhi, I have something to discuss with you.
I dont have anything to talk to you about! Jing Zhi refused rudely. Get lost!
Chapter 1113
Chapter 1113: Then just kill me
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo was prepared to be rejected by Jing Zhi, but she didnt give up.Lets talk in the car, okay? There are many people here, and your car is blocking them.
She recognized Jing Zhis car and had been following him in a taxi the entire day.
When Jing Zhi was with Jing Rui and the others, Zheng yuluo did not dare to look for him.
Although she was a little afraid of Jing Zhi, it was apletely different thing than being afraid of Jing Rui.
Jing Rui was cold to her, but Jing Zhi was warm.
However, Zheng yuluo suspected that this warmth was her own illusion.
Because Jing Zhi looked down on her.
You want to get in my car? Zheng yuluo, youd better go home and keep dreaming! Do you think Im like that idiot Lou Ziyi, who randomly ys with a woman? Youre not worthy!
It was Lou Ziyis birthday that day. I went to celebrate with him, but there were a lot of people. It was veryte. He happened to be on his way home, so he gave me a ride.
Zheng yuluo exined the situation in detail, hoping that Jing Zhi would not misunderstand her rtionship with Lou Ziyi.
However, her exnation was weak.
Jing Zhi didnt believe that! Man and a woman going home alone in the middle of the night would be safe.
Why did Lou Ziyi only give Zheng yuluo one?
Why did it have to be Lou Ziyi?
Along the way?
Along the way, my ass!
He had already investigated Lou Ziyi. The Lou family and the Zheng family were in twopletely different directions. If they were on the same path, he would be dead!
Some things only got worse the more she exined, and Zheng yuluo didnt even know it. She felt that she had exined it clearly, so she said again,Lets talk in the car!
Jing Zhis anger and frustration had gradually subsided.
He casually nced at Zheng yuluo, who was dressed up very beautifully, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a mocking arc.
Why are you going to the car? Seducing me? Take off your clothes and let me do it?
His words were too explicit, and Zheng yuluos beautiful face immediately turned red.Dont talk nonsense!
Im talking nonsense? How many times did you look in the mirror before you left? You used to put on makeup? She had applied a thickyer of powder, her lips were red, her hair permed, and her eyebrows drawn. If shes not here to seduce me, then she must be here to seduce someone else.
In the past, Zheng yuluo had never put on makeup.
Because she had never wanted to please him.
Now that she needed him, she would dress up and make herself look good.
Even though the scheming skill had been abandoned for eight years, she could still use it whenever she wanted to!
Jing Zhi suddenly wanted to see to what extent Zheng yuluo could use her schemes!
He got into the car, but the back door opened. It was obvious that he had agreed to let Zheng yuluo in the car.
Zheng yuluo could not react in time.
She didnt know why Jing Zhi suddenly changed his mind. He was still ming her, and he was still angry.
Did he not like her makeup?
Who else could she seduce other than him?
Jing Zhis words were as piercing as ever, but Zheng yuluo was already used to it.
In the past, his words were even more unpleasant than this, but the facts had proven that it was only his words that were unpleasant. When they were in bed, even if he was suffering, he would not make her suffer for his own enjoyment.
Zheng yuluo got into the car and drove with Jing Zhi. They soon stopped at a remote road.
The silence in the car was a little depressing, making Zheng yuluo a little breathless.
Jing Zhi, can you not make a big deal out of this?
Jing Zhi raised his eyebrows. He had thought that Zheng yuluo was going to start with their old rtionship and y the emotional card.
He didnt expect her to go straight to the point. This didnt fit the routine of a scheming woman!
He coldly refused,no! Ill definitely make a big deal out of this, and make it the biggest deal I can!
Cant we settle this in private?
Zheng yuluos tone was a little pleading. She was afraid that this matter would affect her fathers reputation and job, and even lose his position as the Bureau chief.
Jing Zhis heart was cold, and so was his tone.Zheng yuluo, werent you all very unyielding that day in the hospital? Didnt he use a business-like tone? Ive granted you your wish, and now youre asking me to settle this privately?
The meeting that day was really tense and extremely bad.
Youve misunderstood. My father and I have no intention of doing things ording to business. He has always felt that he has let you down, but when you said that you would put me in prison, he was very angry, so he was so tough. Hes just a father who dotes on his daughter. He definitely doesnt have the intention to argue with you.
Oh, so it was me who sabotaged your deep father-daughter rtionship. Alright then, tell me how you want to settle this privately.
I ... Ill pay you back, okay?
I dontck money. However, if you want topensate, it will depend on your sincerity. How much do you want topensate?
I have 270000 Yuan in total, Zheng yuluo said nervously.Is that okay?
Two hundred and seventy thousand? Jing Zhi sneered. Are you sure youre not joking? If I make a big deal out of this and hire awyer to file awsuit, I can at least get ten times thepensation! It turns out that in your heart, I was beaten half to death and locked in an iron cage for a whole night of repeated torture, but thats all Im worth!
Jing Zhis anger almost burned through his chest.
He turned around and looked at Zheng yuluo, who was sitting in the back row, and roared,Even if I was killed by them, youll only pay 270000 Yuan at most!
No, no, no, Jing Zhi, dont misunderstand! I dont have any money on me, and I borrowed this money from various sources. To you, 270000 may not be a lot, but to me, this is a huge sum of money! I dont have a job right now, so I dont have any ie!
Jing Zhi still found it ridiculous.
He was actually worth 270000!
If her brother knew about this, would he kill Zheng yuluo out of anger?
Her brother had once spent tens of millions of Yuan to bribe the researchers in the Research Institute, just so that they wouldnt poke a needle hole in his body! Just to send him an orange!
Was it because her brother was richer than Zheng yuluo?
No!
Her brother had no money at that time, and he could not use the properties of family Jing before he inherited it.
In order to make him feel better, he had been desperately epting missions and killing people. It was the fastest way to make money!
Her brothers hands were stained with blood, but it was all because of him!
If it wasnt for him, her brother would have been living the life of a rich man in A city!
Zheng yuluo, you should leave. Dont let me see you again. The next time we meet, I will kill you.
Im not leaving!
Zheng yuluos face was a little pale, but she refused to get out of the car.
She looked at Jing Zhi stubbornly and cried,If killing me can make you happy, then kill me! Anyway, Im living a life worse than death every day. I think of you every day, but I cant see you. If I die, I wont have to suffer this kind of torture anymore!

Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi couldnt tell why Zheng yuluo wanted to see him, but she was really looking for death!
When she was in North America, she had secretly asked her family to send her passport and the like to North America. Then, when he wasnt paying attention, she had taken a ne and escaped.
He had chased her all the way to A city. Every time they met, she would sessfully anger him and make him take the initiative to leave in anger.
This was the reaction she had when she wanted to see him?
He wanted to see her too, but he had been trying to get close to her.
Get out of the car. I dont want to see you. Dont put on an act here. You just want me to let Zheng Jing go, dont you? Then Ill tell you the truth, I was there to cause trouble! Let him go? You can give up on this idea!
Was he there to cause trouble?
What did he mean?
You ... Zheng yuluos fingers trembled.Did you do this on purpose?
No, Im scheming against you!
Jing Zhi sneered. He opened the door and got out of the car.
Zheng yuluo instinctively dodged, but Jing Zhi grabbed her hand and held her tightly.
Zheng yuluo, dont tell me you think Ive fallen in love with you? Youve made me so miserable, and my revenge has only just begun! Dont even think about escaping from my grasp in this lifetime! Im going to make you lose everything bit by bit!
Tears rolled down Zheng yuluos face as she looked at Jing Zhi in shock.
Is this your ... Revenge?
Her voice was bitter and filled with sorrow as she said sadly,Your purpose is to ruin my fathers reputation?
Thats right! Next up is your twin sister. Do you think shell go crazy if shes expelled from the Military Academy?
You cant touch my sister!
Zheng yuluo almost screamed. She looked at Jing Zhis handsome face and cried,Im the one who harmed you. Its my fault. Dont me my family! If you want to punish someone, then just punish me!
She cried so hard that she lost her mind. The pain in her heart made her raise her hand and hit Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi had been punched in the chest, but he didnt feel any pain.
With Zheng yuluos strength and her soft little hands, hitting him would only tickle him.
Zheng yuluo hit him once, but her hand hurt from the shock of his firm muscles.
But she didnt stop there. She continued to punch Jing Zhis chest with both hands.
Why are you so annoying! I dont want to like you anymore, I hate you! I hate you, I hate you!
She was so delicate that even if she said I hate you, it sounded like she was saying I love you.
Jing Zhi was a little annoyed when he saw her crying. She really could cry.
Shuyin had experienced much more pain than she had, but she had never seen her shed a single tear.
However, a womans tears were a powerful weapon against men. Jing Zhis heart ached when he saw her cry, even though he was frustrated.
Zheng yuluos exquisite makeup was ruined by her tears in a short while.
But Jing Zhi didnt find her ugly. Instead, he had the urge to pull her into his arms.
He thought, he was crazy!
He had always hated women with heavy makeup. Not only was Zheng yuluo covered in heavy makeup, but her tears were also messily wiped away. She did not look pretty at all, but he still wanted to kiss her.
He thought so and did so.
He put the small woman on hisp, wrapped one hand around her waist, and lifted her delicate and beautiful chin with the other. He lowered his head and kissed her.
Her lips were extremely soft and had the unique fragrance of a young girl. It was extremely seductive.
The lip gloss on her mouth was sweet. Jing Zhi had never tasted it before, and he suddenly thought it was delicious.
He turned and sucked, gently biting.
Zheng yuluo was only 17 years old this year, which was the most tender and beautiful age. She was already a beautiful woman, but after putting on makeup, her beauty immediately increased from 10% to 12%.
It was normal for girls to love beauty and draw their eyebrows.
Jing Zhi felt that he had been too harsh.
The tip of his tongue brushed past Zheng yuluos delicate lips and went deep.
It was sweet and fragrant, soft and warm. He was immersed in it and could not extricate himself.
The change had happened so quickly that Zheng yuluo could not react in time.
However, before her brain could react, her body went soft on its own.
She responded to Jing Zhi subconsciously, wanting to ask for more.
She couldnt be med for being shameless. She could only me herself for longing for him for too long!
Zheng yuluo had kissed Jing Zhi so many times that she could count on her fingers.
The moment he kissed her, she forgot everything.
She thought that if she could die in his arms, it would be worth it. It would be wonderful!
Jing Zhi was right, she had fallen in love with him!
However, she was afraid that he wouldugh at her, so she did not dare to admit it.
She had only said that she missed him, but he had already scolded her so badly. She was psychologically fragile and did not dare to easily say what was in her heart.
But she just missed him!
He was so bad, so why did she still like him?
His words were so harsh, but his kiss was so gentle. Wasnt he not too bad?
Zheng yuluo wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis neck and responded to his kiss.
She mimicked him and licked his lips, tangling her tongue with his.
Her tactless response ignited Jing Zhis passion.
His kiss instantly changed from gentle to wild and domineering, like a storm, drowning Zheng yuluos rationality.
She touched Jing Zhis short hair, his face, and then his strong chest under his clothes.
Jing Zhis body trembled and he snorted. The kiss was interrupted. He held Zheng yuluo in his arms and whispered in Zheng yuluos ear in a charming and evil voice,
Zheng yuluo, you want to y with me in the car? You havent done it for a few months, and youre ying more and more!
Zheng yuluos rationality finally returned. She buried her face in Jing Zhis chest shyly, not daring to look up at him.
She didnt think too much and just wanted to touch him. Who told him to kiss her first?
She had lost herself in his kiss, and her actions just now were involuntary.
The road was remote, but there were people passing by asionally. She didnt want to do anything with Jing Zhi in the car.
I didn t, she said softly,youre using me ...
She sounded a little coquettish, which made Jing Zhis heart itch.
He actually liked Zheng yuluos initiative and her touch.
Her hands were so soft, and when they touched his body, they brought him joy and enjoyment.
If Zheng yuluos purpose today was to seduce him, she had already seeded.
Jing Zhi had been in a good mood with the beauty in his arms.
But ...
Jing Zhi bit her earlobe as if he was taking revenge. He said through gritted teeth,Zheng yuluo, do you even have any professional ethics? Since youre trying to seduce people by dressing up like her, why dont you wait until your period is over?
Chapter 1115
Chapter 1115: Buying sanitary pads
Trantor: 549690339
Period?
Zheng yuluo immediately got out of Jing Zhis arms, her eyes wide open.I didn t!
No? Then why do you smell like blood? Youre injured?
Jing Zhi said as he took off Zheng yuluos clothes.
Zheng yuluo hurriedly crossed her arms in front of her chest and refused to let him take it off.
At the same time, she also felt a slight pain in her lower abdomen and a slight heat flow from her lower body.
Zheng yuluos face instantly turned as red as an Apple. She was really on her period!
Did this person have a dogs nose?
He actually knew about something that even she did not know about!
Looking at the time, it was indeed time. However, she had been so exhausted these two days that she hadpletely forgotten about her period.
It was too embarrassing!
She actually had her period in front of him!
Zheng yuluo wished she could find a hole to hide in.
Jing Zhi knew that he had guessed right when he saw Zheng yuluos expression.
However, it seemed that Zheng yuluo did not know either.
He stretched out his finger and flicked Zheng yuluos forehead.Idiot! You cant even remember your own period, do you have a pigs brain?
Ah!
Zheng yuluo cried out in pain and reached out to cover her forehead. Jing Zhi had hit her too hard, and she felt that her skull was about to break!
He had been strong since he was a child, and his strength had multiplied when he grew up. As long as he used a little force, she would feel so much pain that she wanted to cry.
She pouted. What was so strange about not remembering her own period? Many girls cant remember.
Besides, her period was not always urate. Sometimes it would be one or two days earlier, and sometimes it would be one or two dayster.
But ever since she had sex with Jing Zhi, her period had been getting more and more regr.
She didnt know if it was because of the hormones in her body that had changed after doing that kind of thing, or because of Jing Zhis special body, but she seemed to be in better health than before.
Zheng yuluo lowered her head and did not dare to look up. She said softly,Y-you ... Help me buy that ... Its not convenient for me to go down.
She was worried that her clothes would be stained with blood and it would be embarrassing if she got out of the car to buy it.
She had no choice but to order Jing Zhi around.
That one? Jing Zhi asked despite knowing the answer.
Zheng yuluos voice was as low as a mosquito s.Its ... A girls sanitary item,
Condom?
Zheng yuluo was embarrassed and angry. She raised her hand and hit him on the chest.
Condoms are female hygiene products?
Uh ... If he had to ssify it, it seemed to be barely eptable.
Jing Zhi smiled maliciously. He heard her panicking and said,I didnt expect you to be so eager. Your body is already in this state, and you still want it. If you want it, Ill satisfy you! Anyway, I havent found a suitable woman recently, so Ill just make do with you for now!
This person really knew how tobel others. She clearly didnt mean it that way, but she said it as if she was very hungry!
I told you to buy me sanitary pads. Who told you to buy ... That!
Your face was full of shyness and you looked like you were not satisfied. You asked me to buy that. I know which one it is. Dont normal people think its a condom?
No normal person would think that it was a condom!
Forget it. He was not a normal person to begin with, so Zheng yuluo would not argue with him.
The heat was increasing, and she was a little anxious. Im not feeling well, hurry up and help me buy some!
Im a man, whats wrong with me buying that kind of thing? Itll be troublesome if others misunderstand me as a pervert. Not only will I lose face, but Ill also drag my brother down with me. Im not going!
Then drive me home.
Its very expensive to hire me as a driver! I reckon that with your 270000 Yuan worth, you wouldnt be able to afford it even if you went bankrupt!
Zheng yuluo gritted her teeth and said,Alright, thats it then! Dont me me if your blood is all over you!
She was still sitting on Jing Zhisp, and if they continued to be like this, Jing Zhi would definitely be in trouble.
Jing Zhi immediately wanted to take Zheng yuluo off hisp, but Zheng yuluo hugged his neck tightly and refused to move.
Zheng yuluo, youre getting bolder and bolder. How dare you scheme against me? Do you believe that youll pay for this?
Of course, he believed it.
She had already lost herself!
What was there topensate now?
You forced me to do this. I didnt want to do this. If you go and help me, Ill let go.
Jing Zhi thought for a moment and nodded.Sure. Ill buy it for you. You can sit over there.
Zheng yuluo believed him. After she sat down, she realized that Jing Zhi had no intention of getting out of the car. She had been fooled!
Youre lying to me?
I was just saying. Youre really naive to believe my words so easily.
Zheng yuluo was a little angry. She used both her hands and feet to climb onto Jing Zhis body, determined to sit on hisp.
Youre a monkey? Youre treating me like a tree?
Are you going to buy it or not?
The smell of blood in the air was getting stronger. Although ordinary people couldnt smell it at all, Jing Zhi had a keen sense of smell. He felt that Zheng yuluo had probably lost a lot of blood by now.
Women were really troublesome and fragile.
It was unimaginable for Jing Zhi to bleed every month, as he cherished blood like his life.
If someone took even a little bit of his blood, he would be irritable for a few days.
He held Zheng yuluos slender and soft waist with both hands and finally said,Ill buy it for you. Sit properly. This car isnt mine. Dont dirty it.
He was only worried about Jing Ruis car, but not his clothes.
In other words, he didnt mind her.
Zheng yuluos heart softened. She wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis neck and got very close to him. She said softly,Youre not allowed to lie to me anymore!
Jing Rui looked at her gentle and tender face and nodded.Alright, I wont lie to you.
Only then did Zheng yuluo let go of him and sit back down.
Jing Zhi didnt lie to her this time. He got into the drivers seat, found a convenience store, and went in to buy some things.
However, Jing Zhi was dumbfounded when he entered the room.
He had never touched female sanitary products before, and the dazzling array of sanitary pads on the shelf made him a little dizzy!
He didnt care about anything else and went to pay the bill with a bunch of them.
The cashier was a young girl with a ponytail, who looked to be in her twenties at most. She looked at Jing Zhi in shock when she saw that he had swept through almost all the sanitary pads on the shelf.
Sir, are you sure you want this much?
Jing Zhi was already embarrassed. He red at her and said coldly,What, youre not selling?
Sell, sell, sell!
The cashier originally thought that the man who came in to shop was extremely handsome and was a little infatuated, but when she saw him buy so many tampons, her heart suddenly turned cold.
Could he be a pervert?
Chapter 1116
Chapter 1116: I wont put on makeup anymore
Trantor: 549690339
The cashier had seen men who bought these things for their girlfriends before, but most people would pick the brand that their girlfriends often used, or if they didnt know the brand their girlfriends used, they would immediately call to ask. There were also men who bought these things for their girlfriends secretly, but they would ask her with a red face.
For someone toe and take away a whole bunch of them without saying a word ... That was definitely not normal!
What a waste of a face as handsome as a celebrity s!
How good would it be if she had such a handsome boyfriend!
Moreover, this handsome man was either rich or noble, a typical tall, handsome, and rich man.
Its just that his hobby might be a little special, and most girls probably wouldnt be able to handle it.
Jing Zhi didnt care what the cashier was thinking. He carried a big bag of things into the car and stuffed it into Zheng yuluos arms.Here you go! If you ask me to buy it again, Ill throw you into the sea to feed the Sharks!
Zheng yuluo did not care about his weak threat at all. He was just saying it. If he really hated her, he would not have bought her these things.
She looked at the various types of sanitary pads in her arms and couldnt help butugh.
Jing Zhi blushed a little. He was only an 18-year-old boy. Although he had been through a lot, Zheng yuluo was the only woman he had.
He really didnt know much about women.
What are youughing at?! He said angrily. Youre so stupid, dont you know to bring something useful when you go out?
He remembered that the female assassins in the assassin organization were required to carry womens products, not sanitary pads, but tampons.
This was because the tampons would not affect his movement and were easier to carry.
Zheng yuluo ignored his anger, her face still full of smiles.
Did he buy all these things in the convenience store?
There were all kinds of models and brands avable, even womens sanitary wipes.
He probably couldnt tell the difference between a wet tissue and a sanitary pad.
He had bought so much that it was enough for her to use for a year!
Get out of the car first, Im going to use this.
Zheng yuluos face was red as she chased Jing Zhi out of the car again.
No, why should I get off? Ill just sit in the car, you can just use yours. Which part of your body havent I seen before?
These were twopletely different things!
Zheng yuluo wouldnt agree. If Jing Zhi was in the car, she would rather not use it!
Can you respect my privacy? All girls have times when its inconvenient, you should be more gentlemanly!
You still have privacy?
Jing Zhi looked down at her lower body as he spoke. Ive already seen it. If you dont use it, Ill take off your underwear.
Zheng yuluo was almost forced to tears by him, but she had the most basic sense of shame, so she was not willing to use sanitary pads in front of him.
In the end, Jing Zhi had no choice but topromise and get out of the car.
Zheng yuluo was wearing light gray jeans and white underwear today. At this moment, her underwear had been damaged, and her jeans had been printed.
When she was done, she called for Jing Zhi toe in, her face still red.
Today...Im not feeling well today, can you send me home?
Jing Zhi sneered,you ordered me to run errands for you and buy things for you. After Im done, youre going to kick me away when Im no longer of use to you? You want me to be your driver? In your dreams!
Zheng yuluo was so angry at his unreasonable behavior that she almost vomited blood.
She didnt mean it that way!
There was something wrong with this persons understanding!
She didnt say anything more and let Jing Zhi drive at full speed. She didnt ask him where he was going or what he was going to do.
It was not easy for her to be with Jing Zhi.
It wasnt easy for them to have a good conversation. Zheng yuluo didnt want to be separated from Jing Zhi so soon. She just felt a little pain in her lower abdomen and wanted to go home to change her clothes.
Jing Zhi took Zheng yuluo to the hotel they had stayed in before.
The hotel was a property of Jingsheng enterprise and Jing Zhis big suite had been reserved for him. No one had checked in during this period, and only the janitors had been cleaning it every day.
The hotel staff was very surprised to see the two of them checking in during the day!
In the past, the two of them would move in at midnight. Why did the time change now?
Zheng yuluo was thin-skinned and kept looking up in embarrassment. Jing Zhi ignored everyones eyes, took the room card, and took Zheng yuluo into the elevator, going straight to the room.
In the suite, everything was as usual.
Their rtionship was the same as before. They had the most intimate physical contact, but their hearts were far apart.
Jing Zhi entered the bedroom, took out a bag from the closet, and threw it to Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo took it and opened it. It was full of undergarments.
Jing Zhi had bought them for her before he went to North America. She had only worn a few of them and still had a lot left.
Zheng yuluos face was as red as the morning sun. She picked a pair of underwear and went to the bathroom.
The mirror in the bathroom was not only big, but it also showed every detail. Zheng yuluo was shocked when she saw herself in the mirror!
Her eye shadow was blurred, and her mascara was smudged. She had dark circles under her eyes!
The powder on her face was also smudged from her tears, her red lip gloss was a mess, and even her chin was red!
Her makeup was ruined, but Jing Zhi still kissed her.
It seemed that Jing Zhi liked her too.
Zheng yuluo did not even bother to change her underwear as she hurriedly washed her face!
She swore that she would never put on makeup again!
Its simply too ugly to look like this!
If she did not put on makeup, she would be fine no matter how much she cried. At most, her eyes would be a little red and swollen.
There was no special makeup remover, so it was a little difficult to wash.
Zheng yuluo showered for half an hour before she was clean.
She looked at her slightly red face in the mirror. She still preferred her bare face.
She wiped her face dry and began to change into her underwear.
However, after changing her underwear, she felt a little awkward!
She had already washed her dirty underwear, but where should she put it?
It would be a pity to throw it away. This was the underwear that her sister had bought for her, and it was the first time she was wearing it.
He didnt want to throw it away. It would be embarrassing to leave it in the bathroom.
It was wet, and she couldnt put it in her bag.
Moreover, there was a pair of underwear in the bag, which felt a little ... Strange.
Zheng yuluo hesitated for a long time, but she still decided to hang the underwear on the venttion of the bathroom.
She wasnt sure when she would be able to leave today. Perhaps by the time she left, her underwear would have dried up.
She might be able to change back into her underwear and leave.
The sun was setting in the West, and the afterglow of the setting sun shrouded the earth. The room was filled with a faint golden warm light.
Zheng yuluo walked into the bedroom and saw Jing Zhi standing in the Golden sunlight. He was tall, straight, handsome, and Noble.
Zheng yuluo gathered her courage, walked to him, and hugged him from behind.
Jing Zhi froze, but he didnt push her away.
He stood in front of the window in his original position, looking at the magnificent sea in the distance in silence.
Chapter 1117
Chapter 1117: You have my lip gloss on your lips
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo pressed her face against his firm back and said softly,Jing Zhi, dont make things worse. I dont want anything to happen to dad, and I dont want anything to happen to you either. I dont want to see you two fighting each other.
Jing Zhi remained silent. He didnt say yes or no.
The atmosphere was a little cold, and Zheng yuluo couldnt help but hug him a little tighter.
My father is a good police officer. He has made a lot of efforts for the public security of A city. He has caught many bad people and protected many good people. You were beaten up, and in general, it was the police officers fault. If you want revenge, you shouldnt have looked for my father.
Zheng yuluo was really afraid that Jing Zhi would fight with her father. It was a lose-lose situation, and she didnt want anyone to get hurt.
She waited for a while before Jing Zhi said indifferently,It depends on my mood. If Im in a good mood, I can let him go.
He finally stopped rejecting her, and Zheng yuluo was a little excited.Then what do I have to do to make you feel better?
You want to know?
En!
Alright then. Take off your clothes and lie on the bed. Ill tell you slowly.
You ... Zheng yuluo was both embarrassed and angry.You knew that I couldnt ... But you still said that!
Jing Zhi turned around slowly, hugged Zheng yuluo, and pressed her against the wall.
What cant I do today? Make yourself clear.
He was so close to her, and his masculine scent hit her in the face. Zheng yuluos heart immediately beat wildly.
He was so tall, and when he held her, she waspletely in his arms.
This feeling was a little blissful and sweet.
Zheng yuluo blushed and hugged Jing Zhis broad waist. She pouted softly,You already know the answer, but youre still asking. If I tell you, youll definitely say that Im ... Thirsty!
The corners of Jing Zhis lips couldnt help but rise.
She had learned her lesson and knew to jump over his trap.
He lowered his head, almost sticking his face to Zheng yuluo s, and said softly,You finally know how to wash your face? Im the only one who doesnt mind you. Youre not allowed to put on makeup anymore ...
His voice was so gentle that it almost didnt sound like him!
Zheng yuluos heart was beating like a drum, and even her breathing was a little short.
Youre too evil! You didnt tell me that my makeup was smudged, so I wont tell you either. Your lips are stained with my lip gloss, and its all red!
Jing Zhi wiped his lips with his hand and saw that there was a little red on his hand.
This is your lipsticks, help me apply it.
After he finished speaking, he pressed his lips against Zheng yuluo s.
Their breaths were intertwined in an instant. Zheng yuluo had just washed her face, and there was a faint fragrance. It was much morefortable than the strong smell of her makeup. Jing Zhi only kissed her lightly at first, but it became extremely overbearing and intense towards the end. He wanted to swallow Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo fell into Jing Zhis arms and let him do whatever he wanted. She didnt want to stop, even if he kissed her too intensely and hurt her.
She didnt know if she would still be as close to Jing Zhi as she was now. She wished that time would stop here forever.
A part of Jing Zhis body was already swollen. He picked up Zheng yuluo and threw her on the bed. Then he took off his shirt and pressed himself on her.
Zheng yuluoy on the soft bed and said shyly,Jing Zhi, you can t. Not today ...
Her voice was so soft and delicate that Jing Zhi felt all the blood in his body rush down his body.
He reached his big hands into Zheng yuluos clothes and unbuttoned her bra. He said in a low and hoarse voice,Yes, I know. Im not going in.
Zheng yuluos body had not been touched by him for a long time. At this moment, she was particrly sensitive. She could not help but scream. After that, her face turned red in embarrassment. Then, she bit the nket hard to prevent herself from making any more sounds that would make people blush and their hearts race.
Jing Zhi tormented Zheng yuluo for a while. Not only did he not feelfortable, but he felt more and more ufortable.
He took Zheng yuluos soft hand and put it under his body.Zheng yuluo, are you doing this on purpose? You knew that I wouldnt be able to eat you up today, so you came to seduce me?
When Zheng yuluos hand touched his chest, she was so scared that she immediately wanted to retract her hand.
But Jing Zhi held her down firmly, not letting her move.
You seduced me, but you didnt help me solve it. What are you up to? You want me to explode?
He whispered in Zheng yuluos ear, and after that, he took the opportunity to bite Zheng yuluos earlobe. He was only satisfied when he saw Zheng yuluos obvious trembling.
He was enduring so much, so he couldnt let Zheng yuluo have a good time.
Zheng yuluo was not having a good time either. After a woman was carefully teased, she would feel terrible if she could not get it.
Zheng yuluo had been through a lot, and she had always wanted to be with Jing Zhi.
She hugged Jing Zhi and kissed him wildly, as if this was the only way to relieve the heat in her heart.
After an unknown amount of time, the two of them gradually calmed down.
Zheng yuluos heart ached when she saw the wounds on his body.
She curled up in his arms, her fingers running across his unhealed wounds and gently kissing his chest.
Why are they so heavy-handed? Arent you very powerful? why arent you fighting back? Or you can tell them that you are a member of the Jing family.
Jing Zhi thought to himself, if I fight back, will I be able to see you? If he hadnt been injured a little more seriously, how could things have gotten so out of hand? If things werent this big, would youe and beg me?
They used an electric shock. My whole body was numb and I didnt have the strength to fight back. Besides, theyre all policemen, and there are many of them. If I fight back, Ill only be beaten and scolded more.
Jing Zhi had always been good at acting pitiful, but he had only done so in front of his brother. He had never done so in front of Zheng yuluo.
His brother was much more powerful than him, so he didnt feel any psychological pressure at all when he pretended to be pitiful.
On the other hand, Zheng yuluo was a weak woman to begin with. When he faced her, he was full of chauvinism. He could only pretend to be strong, not pitiful.
He didnt like to show his weak side in front of his woman.
It was just that sometimes, being a little weak was better than being tough. Zheng yuluo was a soft-hearted person, and he seemed to be able to start from this aspect.
However, what he had just said was the truth. The other party had indeed used an electric shock and caused him some harm. However, he was notpletely powerless to retaliate.
After hearing his words, Zheng yuluos eyes turned red from heartache.
Jing Zhi was smart for once. He said calmly, Im fine. When I was in North America, I was imprisoned and beaten even worse. Im already used to these injuries!
He was imprisoned in North America all because of her.
Zheng yuluo couldnt help but cry in Jing Zhis arms.

Jing Zhi was in a good mood when he heard her cry.
He hugged Zheng yuluo and whispered,alright, stop crying. Youre so ugly! Your tears and snot are all on me, so you have to help me showerter.
Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, could not stop crying. The guilt she had umted for eight years exploded at this moment, and she wanted to cry to death.
Why did she not like him when she was young?
If she liked him, perhaps he would be able to avoid that disaster!
It was toote for her to like him!
Zheng yuluo cried for half an hour. She was heartbroken, as if her most beloved thing had been taken away. Jing Zhi wanted to cry with her.
He patted Zheng yuluos back awkwardly and coaxed her.If you continue to cry, my brothers hotel will be flooded by you! Alright, arent I fine? Its all in the past!
Zheng yuluos eyes were swollen like peaches. She sobbed and said,Jing Zhi, Ill take care of you from now on, okay?
Jing Zhi wiped her tears away. He felt warm inside.
The pain he had suffered was not in vain. It was worth it to be beaten up.
You said it yourself. You cant go back on your words. If you do, I might want to kill you. Im very good at killing people, and I can do it without anyone knowing. Do you want to try?
In the past, Zheng yuluo would have been frightened by him.
But now, she knew what kind of person Jing Zhi was. She knew that he wasnt bad to her. She thought that Jing Zhi was just trying to scare her.
She said in a nasal voice,I wont go back on my word, as long as youre willing.
Jing Zhi was quite happy. He got up and ordered a sumptuous dinner, then went to the bathroom to take a shower. He didnt ask Zheng yuluo to help him, and he took a shower himself, almost humming a song.
He looked at Zheng yuluos underwear hanging in the bathroom and couldnt help but think of her beautiful body.
There were signs of her waking up somewhere. Jing Zhi scolded himself helplessly.
He was really useless!
He even had a reaction when he saw Zheng yuluos underwear!
It wasnt like he had never seen a woman before. He had seen all kinds of women, ck, white, yellow, tall, short, fat, and thin. Why did he lose his mind when he saw Zheng yuluo?
If his brother knew that he was with Zheng yuluo again, he might scold him!
Jing Zhi gave a silly smile. He decided to keep this a secret from his brother. He was an adult now and he could make his own decisions and solve his own problems.
The hotel restaurant was very efficient. It didnt take long for the food Jing Zhi ordered to be served.
He had specially asked for ice to apply it to Zheng yuluos eyes.
Zheng yuluo originally had double eyelids, but now it was swollen to the point of single eyelids!
For the first time, Jing Zhi didnt satisfy his appetite first. He forced his eyes away from the food, wrapped some ice in a towel, and held Zheng yuluo in his arms to apply it on her eyes.
Zheng yuluo was a sensitive girl, so she sensed the change in Jing Zhi immediately.
She had never thought that one day Jing Zhi would pamper her so much that he would make ice for her to reduce the swelling.
She was so touched that she wanted to cry, but just as her eyes turned red, Jing Zhi scolded her.
Still crying? Ill go blind if I keep crying! I dont care about you anymore, you can go home with two peaches on your head!
It was said that women were made of water, but didnt Zheng yuluo love to cry?
This was the first time he had seen someone with such well-developed tear nds!
No wonder it was called raindrop!
Her parents had really had the foresight to name their daughter. They knew that when this daughter grew up, she would drop gold beans every day!
Zheng yuluo did not dare to cry anymore. If she really went home with swollen eyes, her parents would definitely ask.
She wasnt good at lying, and her father was a police officer, so she would definitely be exposed.
Fortunately, the ice block was still effective. After applying it for more than ten minutes, the situation was much better.
Alright, go eat. You cant put it on anymore. The ice is too cold and youre on your period. Its not good for your body.
Zheng yuluo couldnt help but show a sweet smile. He also knew that she couldnt catch a cold during her period.
She didnt know that he was so meticulous.
Her own clothes had been ruined by Jing Zhi, so she could only wear one of his shirts when she got out of bed.
Jing Zhi had an indescribable feeling when he saw her walking around the suite in his own clothes. He felt that the gloominess from the past few days had disappeared and everything was pleasing to the eye.
The two of them sat in the dining room to eat. Zheng yuluo had a small appetite and was full after eating for a while.
She cupped her chin in her hands and watched Jing Zhi eat.
Jing Zhi was famished. He ate very quickly. His actions werent elegant, but he had a good temperament and a handsome face. The way he ate was full of charm.
He nced at Zheng yuluo and said unhappily when he saw that she had stopped eating,Why did you only eat so little? No wonder hes so skinny, it doesnt feel good to the touch! Eat more and fatten me up, Ill eat you!
Zheng yuluo felt that he was treating her like a pig, and she could not help but feel a little embarrassed.
However, she still obediently picked up her chopsticks again and slowly ate. Jing Zhi was enjoying the food so much that she had an appetite too.
And she knew that she was indeed very thin, and even thinner recently.
If she ate more, would her breasts ... Grow bigger?
She didnt know if it was because she had eaten too little in the past, but her figure was too thin, far from being plump.
She was only seventeen years old. It should be toote to start supplementing now, right?
Jing Zhi saw Zheng yuluo peeking at his chest, and he seemed to know what she was thinking. He said calmly,I like big breasts. If you start to nourish them now, you can even go through a second puberty!
Zheng yuluo was a little angry. Men seemed to like big breasts!
She lowered her head and looked at her chest again. She resigned herself to her fate and put a pigs trotter on the te, gnawing on it.
She didnt eat meat before and usually only ate vegetarian food. Now, she couldnt care so much.
The hotels braised pork trotters were delicious. They were fragrant but not greasy, tender, smooth, and delicious. After a while, Zheng yuluo ate them with great relish.
Jing Zhi had lived with Zheng yuluo for a while, so he knew that Zheng yuluo was a vegetarian. He was just teasing her just now. Zheng yuluo had developed well, and he was not the kind of person who pursued big breasts.
He did not expect Zheng yuluo to mind so much that she was even willing to eat pig trotters!
Jing Zhi didnt stop her. It was better for her to put on more weight.
After dinner, it was already past Teno clock at night.
Jing Zhi wanted Zheng yuluo to stay in the hotel, but she didnt agree and insisted on going home.
And she didnt want Jing Zhi to send her back, so she took a taxi home.
Although Jing Zhi had agreed, he was still worried. He followed the taxi at a moderate distance until he saw Zheng yuluo go to a store to buy clothes and change. He smiled helplessly.
Chapter 1119
Chapter 1119: Chapter 1119: the first Prince!
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo didnt know that Jing Zhi was following her. She got out of the taxi, bought some clothes, and took another taxi home.
It was almost 11 O clock when she got home.
She told her parents that she was going to y with her friends. Her mother was more innocent and believed her.
His father clearly didnt believe him and had been waiting until now.
Luoluo, donte back sote in the future. Its not safe outside.
Its just once or twice, Zheng yuluo said.Ill be careful.
She was actually feeling very guilty. She always felt that she was having an affair with Jing Zhi.
She lowered her head, not daring to look at Zheng Jing. She picked up her bag and was about to go upstairs.
Zheng Jing stopped her.
Luoluo, where did you go today?
I didnt go anywhere, Zheng yuluo said hesitantly, panicking.I just ... Went out for a walk.
With who?
A ... Friend.
Which friend?
Zheng yuluo was suddenly at a loss for words. Yes, which friend?
She had no friends!
Her friends were all from before she was nine years old. Later, she suffered from severe depression, and her school was interrupted for a long time.
When she reentered the school, her personality changed drastically. She didnt like to talk to anyone anymore.
Now, she still had Lou Ziyi as a friend a few days ago, but now she didnt even have him.
Zheng Jing heaved a deep sigh and looked at his daughters back. He exposed her lie.You went to see Jing Zhi today, right?
Zheng yuluo suddenly turned her head and said anxiously,Dad, Im going to discuss some things with him. I dont want him to make a big deal out of this and affect your work. But he was really beaten up badly, please dont hurt him anymore! Those who beat him must also be severely punished! They dont deserve to be the police!
I didnt want to hurt him. I wont let off any of those who hit me. If Im going to be punished, its fine.
Zheng Jing had always felt sorry for Jing Zhi, not to mention that he, as the Bureau chief, was also responsible for the problems in the police station.
This is my business, luoluo. You dont have to worry about anything. Just leave it to father. Dont get too close to Jing Zhi in the future. The virus in his body is very powerful and cant be controlled. If you get infected and something happens to you, how will your mother and I live?
Zheng Jing sounded a little harsh when he said these words.
He knew his daughter too well. Zheng yuluo looked much weaker than Zheng Yuwei. Compared to the slightly boyish Zheng Yuwei, she seemed to be an obedient girl.
However, in reality, Zheng Yuwei was more receptive to advice from others. Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, was a little stubborn. If she had made up her mind, no one would be able to change her mind.
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun had been worried about this.
Otherwise, the couple would not have agreed to Zheng yuluos decision to quit school at such a young age and go abroad to find Jing Zhi alone.
Zheng yuluo lowered her head again and whispered,Dad, its fine. I was with him today and I didnt get infected. Wasnt it supposed to be transmitted through blood? I just need to avoid touching his blood.
Zheng Jing said sternly,luoluo, you have to be obedient! Would I harm you? Who could guarantee that he would never get hurt? And he has experienced too much blood. Unlike you, you two are from two different worlds!
Zheng yuluo did not agree with her fathers words, but she did not continue to refute.
She used to be afraid of Jing Zhi, but not anymore.
Perhaps he was bloodthirsty, but he had an undetectable gentleness and attentiveness to her.
Wasnt she the one who caused him to bleed?
What right did she have to despise him?
Who made the rule that people from two different worlds could not be together?
His world was filled with bloodshed, while her world was bright and sunny. Wasnt it just right for them to intertwine together?
She had found him and had never thought of letting him go.
Father, youve worked hard all day. Go and rest first. I talked to Jing Zhi today. He probably wont make a big deal out of this, so dont worry!
Zheng yuluo knew that her father doted on her. She felt that she was a little unfilial for making him worry all the time.
There was nothing she could do to help. All she could do was try her best to avoid conflict between her father and Jing Zhi.
Zheng Jing frowned when he heard his daughters words.You have a good rtionship with him?
No... I didn t!
Zheng yuluo was a little nervous. Her face was pale and she was at a loss.
Luoluo, are you hiding something from your father? Thest time we met, he still wanted to take revenge on you. Why is he willing to let it go now? What did you do today? Why arent you wearing the same clothes as the one you were wearing when you left the house?
Having a father who used to be a Criminal Police officer was a very scary thing. He could guess the whole thing just by looking at your eyes and words!
I dirtied that dress, so I went to buy a new one.
Zheng yuluos voice was timid.Dad, dont misunderstand. I ... I did that today.
Zheng Jing didnt understand his daughters words at first. But when he saw Zheng yuluos flushed face, he realized that his daughter was having a special time today.
He was a little embarrassed and felt that he had misunderstood his daughter.
Oh, I see ... You should go back to your room and rest! If youre not feeling well, dont go out and walk around. Just rest at home tomorrow.
Zheng yuluo heaved a sigh of relief and hurried upstairs.
She had no choice but to say that. Otherwise, she didnt know what she would say if Zheng Jing kept asking her.
If her father knew that she and Jing Zhi had already done everything that shouldnt have happened, he would be furious.
She had just returned to her room when her phone in her bag suddenly rang.
Zheng yuluo, who was already feeling guilty, was shocked when she heard the ringtone.
She quickly took out her phone, only to see that it was an unknown number.
She hesitated for a moment, but when her phone kept ringing, she answered it.
Before she could say anything, Jing Zhiszy voice came from inside.
Zheng yuluo, a stranger is calling you. Why did you pick up so easily?
When Zheng yuluo heard his voice, she was both scared and sweet.
She was afraid that her father would find out that she was talking to Jing Zhi on the phone, but at the same time, she was dying to hear Jing Zhis voice.
If I dont pick up, how would I know if its you? she whispered.
What if he isn t? Arent you talking to a strange man in the middle of the night behind my back?
But, what if he is? If I didnt pick it up, I might have missed you.
The corners of Jing Zhis lips lifted slightly. Since when did this girl have such a glib tongue?
Zheng yuluo, you took one minute and twenty seconds to answer my call. Thats too long! The next time I call, you have to answer within three seconds!
Zheng yuluo didnt know whether tough or cry. He was the one who despised her for picking up the phone, and he was also the one who despised her for picking up the phone too slowly!
He was simply a contradiction. It was a bit serious to have two personalities!
Chapter 1120
Chapter 1120: You are only allowed to like me
Trantor: 549690339
How did you know my phone number?
Zheng yuluo didnt even change her clothes. She snuggled under the covers and called Jing Zhi with a smile on her face.
I can know anything I want to know! Its just a number. How can such a low-level thing trouble me? I now have a huge amount of resources in my hands. If I want to know someones information, itll only take me a sip of water, and someone wille to me!
His arrogant tone sounded as if he could control the world, which made Zheng yuluough.
I know, youre very powerful, she said in a tone of admiration.
Jing Zhi was a little proud, but also a little guilty.
Although he was indeed strong, and even his brother couldnt beat him in a one-on-one fight.
However, he really did not find out Zheng yuluos mobile phone number himself. It was his brother who had found it earlier, and he had just secretly noted it down.
Although he could use the intelligencework of the assassin organization, it was a bit of a waste to get Zheng yuluos mobile phone number.
Zheng yuluo didnt know that Jing Zhi had gotten her phone number from Jing Rui, and she didnt care how Jing Zhi got it.
Since Jing Zhi was willing to spend so much effort looking for her phone number, it meant that he cared about her.
She held her phone and chatted with him while lying on the bed.
Where are you? Why do I hear that you have a car?
Im downstairs, Jing Zhi said calmly.My car is blocking the road. The car behind me honked at me to make way.
Zheng yuluo sat up in shock.Youre in my house?
Why did you sit up? Lie down!
Zheng yuluos tone became more and more surprised.You can see me?!
She ignored Jing Zhis order and ran to the window barefooted. She looked down and saw a ck car parked at the back door of the vi.
When did you arrive? Howe I didnt know about it?
Zheng yuluo was a little flustered, afraid that her father would find Jing Zhi.
However, she was more surprised and shocked by Jing Zhi.
She suddenly realized that perhaps Jing Zhi cared about her more than she had imagined.
Even though she had never been in a rtionship, Zheng yuluo knew that Jing Zhis behavior was only reserved for a boy who was deeply in love.
She had attended junior high and senior high School in China. Although she had studied in a scattered University, she had studied in North America for a while.
Many of her female ssmates were like this when they were pursued by boys.
No matter howte it was, the boys would always wait at the bottom of the girls dormitory.
Jing Zhi sat in the car and saw the slender figure on the second-floor window. He couldnt help but jump over the wall. After a few steps, he quickly entered Zheng yuluos room through the window.
The entire process was so fast that it only took a minute!
Zheng yuluo was stunned!
This, this, this ... How did hee in while he was talking?
This was different from the movies!
In movies, the male lead would always be waiting outside!
Jing Zhi looked at Zheng yuluo, who was still in a daze. He took her phone, hung up the phone, and pressed her against the wall.
Im here to see if youve been fooling around with another man the moment we separated. Its a good thing there isn t. If there is, Ill beat them to death. So, for the safety of others, youd better keep a distance of more than ten meters from all male species.
Jing Zhi didnt hide his possessiveness. His long fingers glided over Zheng yuluos Red lips. His Adams apple moved, and he wanted to bite her.
Zheng yuluo finally came back to her senses, but her first reaction was not joy, but panic.
If her father saw her, she would be dead!
Jing Zhi would be scolded by his father too!
Zheng yuluo pushed Jing Zhi to the window in a panic.Hurry up and leave. Itll be troublesome if dad sees you! He, he, he ... He wont let me fall in love!
Jing Zhi stood there without moving, still pushing Zheng yuluo against the wall.
He asked in a low voice,who said were dating? You want to be my girlfriend?
Zheng yuluo blushed. She was so anxious that she identally exposed her true feelings, but she couldnt care so much at this time. She couldnt push Jing Zhi away, so she could only beg him,
Ill go find you tomorrow, okay? If youre discovered by father here, hell be angry. What if he gets angry at you? Hes usually very easy to talk to, but hes very scary when hes angry.
And Zheng Jing had told her to stay away from Jing Zhi.
If Zheng Jing knew that she was in an intimate rtionship with Jing Zhi, he would kill Jing Zhi in a fit of anger.
Jing Zhi hugged Zheng yuluo tightly and smelled the fragrance of her soft hair. He sucked on her earlobe and asked vaguely,Does your heart ache for me?
Zheng yuluos ears were unusually sensitive, and her entire body went soft.
Blushing, she wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis waist and murmured a soft yes.
Jing Zhi let go of her ear, lifted her chin, and kissed her on her pink lips.
Zheng yuluo only had him in her heart and eyes, so how could she refuse?
She even responded to him instinctively by sticking out her tongue to entangle with his.
Jing Zhi had great self-control, but Zheng yuluos enthusiastic response made him lose control of himself. He wanted to swallow her up.
After a long time, he let go of Zheng yuluo and scolded while panting,Zheng yuluo, youre not allowed to seduce me when youre on your period! Otherwise, I dont mind fighting a bloody battle!
Zheng yuluo hadpletely copsed in Jing Zhis arms. Not only was her hair messy, but even her clothes were in a mess.
You seduced me first, you cant me me, she said in a sweet voice.
It was hard to say who was seducing who. The two of them were like dry firewood and fire. It was not easy for them to meet, but they could not control their hearts.
Jing Zhi didnt argue with Zheng yuluo anymore. He put his chin on Zheng yuluos neck and closed his eyes.
Her back was smooth and delicate, like silk. Her waist was thin and soft.
The creator was too biased and shaped her to be almost perfect.
The young girl was as fresh and tender as a delicate flower bud, and it seemed that with a casual pinch, flower juice would drip out.
Jing Zhi pitied her, and he couldnt help but soften his grip, afraid that he would hurt her.
His body was special, and he had already matured in all aspects. As for Zheng yuluo, she seemed to have not fully developed yet. She was still growing.
For the first time, Jing Zhi felt that he had wanted her too soon.
He had only hated her. He could not kill her, so he deliberately tortured her.
But now, he realized that torturing her was no different from torturing himself!
Zheng yuluo, youre mine! He said with a serious expression. From today onwards, youre only allowed to like me!

Chapter 1121: Not only is it devastatingly beautiful, but it can also kill
Trantor: 549690339
It was a little solemn, a little overbearing, and a little gentle. Zheng yuluo liked it very much!
Her fair face was flushed as she snuggled into Jing Zhis arms. She said softly,I never liked anyone else.
At this moment, she truly felt like she was in love.
Her heart was beating fast, and her heart was beating fast. It was so sweet.
Zheng yuluo was a little afraid that she was really dreaming, so she couldnt help but hold Jing Zhi tightly. She only felt at ease when she heard his strong heartbeat.
You were chasing me away just now. Why are you hugging me so tightly now?
Zheng yuluo was thin-skinned and shyly let go of her arm.
Jing Zhi nced at her and said,Im leaving. Then he jumped out of the window.
Zheng yuluo was shocked and hurriedly went to see if he was injured, but hended on the ground nimbly and left quickly like a ghost. He did not make a sound throughout the whole process.
So powerful!
She had only seen high-level agents with such skills in movies.
Zheng yuluos heart felt empty as she watched Jing Zhi drive away in the dark.
It was as if the warmth and passion just now was just a dream, and everything would disappear when he woke up.
She was a little annoyed. She shouldnt have chased Jing Zhi away so quickly. She should have been more thick-skinned and hugged him tightly.
Next time. Next time, she would not let go, even if heughed at her.
Zheng yuluo did not know that she had been waiting for a long time for her next time.
Jing Zhi drove back to the vi. He wanted to sneak in, but he found that there was no one there.
Her brother wasnt around, Shuyin wasnt around, and even the new maid wasnt around.
Only the tables in the dining hall were filled with all kinds of dishes, but they had already turned cold.
He hadnt touched any of the dishes. Jing Zhi knew that his brother must have ordered the chef to make them for him.
Her brother probably did note back at night.
He had wanted to apologize to Shuyin today, but after meeting Zheng yuluo, he hadpletely forgotten about it.
She wondered how her brothers conversation with Shuyin was going.
After Shuyin left school in the day, she checked into a hotel.
After ordering a meal, she stayed in the hotel to make a detailed n for her future.
Although she had a lot of money in her card, she didnt want to waste it.
She needed to study, work, and fulfill her dreams. She wanted to get rid of the virus in her body.
Being a doctor wasnt a bad career, and Shuyin never thought of leaving family MUs Hospital.
This hospital had a mix of Chinese and Western medicine. There were well-known Medical Schrs and experts in various fields, which would be very beneficial for her to improve her professional knowledge.
However, if one wanted to be a doctor, even if he was the most ordinary doctor, he would still need to have a bachelors degree.
Although Shuyin had reached the professional level, she had no higher education and had never gone to college.
Her current files, as well as her academic qualifications, were all fabricated by the Research Institute for her.
Her learning history showed that she was from a primary school, junior high school, and Senior High School abroad.
Many people in the Research Institute were like her. Their academic information was fabricated, but it was not fake. It could be found, but they did not go to school for a day.
The background of the Research Institute was strong, and it was supported by the governments of various countries. It was very easy to get a few real academic qualifications.
This was because only real identity information could make it convenient for many researchers toe out and deal with government officials of various countries.
If she wanted to gain a foothold in A city and live an ordinary life, she had to graduate from college smoothly.
No hospital would be willing to hire a doctor with a high school degree.
As far as she knew, family MUs Hospital didnt ept students with high school or even a bachelors degree. The minimum requirement was a masters degree.
This was actually very normal. If a doctor wanted to reach the necessary professional level, he would need to study at least five years of professional knowledge. Therefore, medical students usually took their masters degree in session.
At Shuyins level, she could only be considered half a doctor at most, and she didnt know much about clinical knowledge.
She didnt want to understand it.
She wasnt greedy, and she only wanted to make a breakthrough in the field of viruses.
She had made a ten-year n for herself. Ten yearster, she would only be 28 years old. She was still young. By then, regardless of whether she had made a breakthrough in her Virus Research, she wanted to let go of everything and go to see the world and travel to study.
Ten yearster, Jing Rui would have gotten rid of Zishans threat, and she would be able to find a way to get rid of Lucas.
Without any threat to her life, she could go wherever she wanted and no longer had to worry about being killed.
As for the other half, Shuyin didnt want to find one.
Theres nothing wrong with living alone.
However, she really liked children. When she had the money, she could go to the orphanage and adopt one.
She was an orphan herself, and she understood the desire for kinship in the hearts of orphans. She hoped that she could give a child love and warmth, and make up for the trauma in the childs heart.
Shuyin was busy the entire afternoon. The hotel room was equipped with aputer so that she could look up all kinds of information.
Only when she was busy would she not think about certain people and certain things.
Jing Rui was staying in the room next to Shuyin s, but Shuyin didnt know about it.
He was also very busy, and even treated the hotel room as his office.
After he came back to the country, he had a lot of things to deal with. Jing Yichen had asked him to show up at Jingsheng enterprise many times.
The media business had been handed over to him two days ago, but Jing Yichen was away on a business trip to discuss the acquisition of the enterprise, so Jing Rui was the only one who could handle it.
His career and his woman had to be prioritized. Jing Rui felt that Shuyin would not be able to escape, so he met with the vice president and director of the media department in the room next to hers.
It was alreadyte at night. Shuyin had a simple meal and when she went to take a shower, she realized that she had no clothes to wear.
Her clothes were all in Jing Ruis Vi.
Shuyin didnt want to take it. She took a shower, changed into a sleeping robe, and then went to bed to sleep.
After a tiring day, she fell asleep very quickly.
She didnt know how much time had passed. In her daze, she felt something strange around her, as if someone was touching her face.
She suddenly opened her eyes, reached under her pillow, and quickly ced the knife on the mans neck.
The bright moonlight shone in through the window, illuminating the dagger with a cold light, just like her vignt eyes, with a bone-piercing chill.
Oh, Cheryl, your reaction has improved! Im very happy that my daughter has grown up. Not only is she devastatingly beautiful, but she can also hurt me! You see, my neck was cut by you. If I had reacted a little slower, I would have been killed by you! Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a pity, were going to lose a lot of viruses!
Chapter 1122
Chapter 1122: A secret Crisis
Trantor: 549690339
Surprise and shock shed in Shuyins eyes. She tightened her grip on the dagger and said through gritted teeth,Lucas? Youre really like a ghost that wont leave! Who is your daughter? Youve been infected with the virus and cant give birth anymore!
Little baby, youre still so mean. Having a sharp tongue was not a virtue for a girl. No wonder Jing Rui refused to tell you such a big secret about his body!
Shuyins pupils contracted, and her heart almost stopped beating. How did Lucas know?
However, she was a survivor who had survived a storm, and she had already mastered the art of not showing her emotions.
Moreover, this matter was rted to Jing Ruis safety. Shuyin was at her best and pretended not to know anything.What do you mean by that?
Cheryl, stop pretending. I know everything! Such an exciting big secret, Im so excited that I cant sleep, otherwise why would Ie to you in the middle of the night?
Shuyin furrowed her brows.Lucas, she said,I think youre here to cause trouble because of your mental illness. If you have any secrets, you can tell me! Jing Rui has a lot of secrets, and I am still trying to dig them out. Of course, if you tell me one of them, I can save some energy.
Lucass deep blue eyes shed with a hint of doubt.
He didnt care that there was a sharp dagger on his neck. He grabbed Shuyins wrist and checked her pulse.
Shuyin resisted as usual, but she let Lucas catch her wrist without a word.
Her pulse was normal, and her heartbeat was steady. There was no sign of her lying.
Shuyin was betting that Lucas might have only heard a little bit of the news. She was betting that he might not be sure if the virus in Jing Rui was the same as Jing Zhi s.
Both of them were top researchers in the field of Virology, but they had also been deeply researched by the Research Institute. They didnt believe that anyone in the world could withstand Jing Zhis virus.
Those who didnt participate in the research of the special virus couldnt imagine how much effort the Research Institute had put in to crack and replicate the virus.
The resources consumed by the Research Institute every day could almost build a city!
If it werent for the support of dozens of countries, big and small, the Research Institute wouldnt even be able to afford an ordinary anesthetic!
Lucas felt Shuyins pulse. He didnt feel anything strange, but his suspicions had not been eliminated.
He had indeede to test Shuyin today.
If it wasnt a matter of great importance, he wouldnt have exposed himself so early.
However, the temptation of the virus was fatal to him, so he could only take a huge risk to test it out.
Cheryl, although your heartbeat hasnt changed, you cant lie to me! Youre lying! Others might not know, but Im your foster father. I raised you up by myself. Do you think I dont know how much youre worth? Youve always had a strong mind, even the lie detector has no effect on you!
The person who knew her the best in the world was not Jing Rui or herself, but the lunatic Lucas!
However, Shuyin wouldnt admit defeat so easily. In this kind of psychological battle, whoever admitted defeat first would fall into the trap.
She sneered coldly.Lucas, your delusional disorder is getting worse. Im telling the truth. Why did your heart rate change? You dont tell anyone the truth, So You Think that everyone else is lying! Its really sad!
As long as she refused to admit it, Lucas would start to doubt his own judgment.
No matter what, she could not let Lucas know about Jing Ruis Secret!
Let go of my hand, or Ill cut off your head! Ive never used my dagger before. Today, Ill use you to see if my dagger is fast or not!
At this moment, Shuyin was fearless and didnt have the fragility of an 18-year-old girl at all.
Her aura was fully released, and she didnt look like a researcher at all. She was as strong as an executioner!
Lucas even felt a little dazed, as if he was facing a vicious purple fir.
Zishan was an assassin, so it was normal for her to have such a fierce aura. Why was Shuyin so overbearing?
Lucas, who treated life like dirt, was also a little mad. He roared in his heart, why are girls so perverted these days!
Instead of being gentle littlembs, all of them wanted to be vicious wolves in sheeps clothing!
Could he have raised Shuyin to the wrong side?
Shuyin had indeed been brought up by Lucas. She was kind and pure in nature and never knew the evil of peoples hearts, much less the sufferings of the human world. Although she had never experienced much fatherly love and motherly love, at least she had never been beaten or starved.
After her father gave her to Lucas, she fell from heaven to hell. After suffering so many losses, she began to be ruthless and learned how to use her disguise to protect herself.
Whenever Shuyin saw Lucas, she wanted nothing more than to kill him, so it would be strange if she could say anything nice about him!
Moreover, she could tear off her good person facade in front of Lucas and be a bad person without any reservations.
Shuyin only hated herself for being too weak and only having a 10% chance of killing Lucas, so she didnt dare to act rashly. She could only show her strength so that Lucas wouldnt dare to touch her easily.
Lucas didnt care about his blood, but he did care about the virus that was lost with his blood.
He let go of Shu Yins hand and followed her force, quickly escaping from her de.
He stood by Shuyins bed and touched his neck. Then, he wiped off his blood-stained fingers one by one.
Oh, the smell of the virus, its so delicious!
Although it wasnt the first time Shuyin had seen Lucas like this, she still felt disgusted.
She was starting to doubt how she had managed to survive Lucass attack!
It was a miracle that her blood wasntpletely drunk by this lunatic!
Fortunately, there were too many types of viruses in her body, so Lucas didnt dare to try them. If it were like now, with only two types of viruses intertwined in her body, Lucas would definitely not let her go.
Lucas, wheres your master? It seems that the Blueblood virus didnt kill herst time. She can even provide you with support!
Lucas knew that Shuyin was trying to find out more about the Chinese fir, but he didnt care. The only thing that could pique his interest was the virus.
His deep blue eyes glowed faintly, and his dry voice sounded a little excited.Oh, so that virus is called the Blueblood virus! Hahaha, how fitting! Cheryl, youre a genius in viruses! I want some Blueblood virus, give me some! Hurry, hurry, hurry!

Trantor: 549690339
The virus was developed by Shuyin herself. Although Lucas saved Zishans life, he couldnt crack it, so Zishans body had some residual effects.
Lucas had been developing this new and powerful virus for a long time, but he had not seeded.
So he anxiously asked Shuyin for it.
This virus was too deadly, and Shuyin didnt want to give it to a lunatic like Lucas.
She took a piece of tissue from the bedside table and wiped the blood on the knife unhurriedly. She said coldly,Theres nothing else! If you want to cultivate it yourself, arent you the best at cultivating viruses? Youre asking a little girl like me for it, do you still have any shame?
Lucas was already used to Shuyins scolding. Besides, he felt that he was a shameless person to begin with, so he didnt feel embarrassed at all when he asked Shuyin for the virus.
He didnt see Shuyin as an ordinary girl at all. He said fiercely,Dont dawdle and give me the virus! Otherwise, I will spread the secret of Jing Ruis blood! Hmph, when the timees, the people who wille to draw his blood will attack the entire city!
Shuyins heart trembled. The consequences would be unimaginable!
However, she could not show any nervousness about Jing Rui, or Lucas would suspect that she was trying to keep the secret for Jing Rui.
You can continue to fool me. Ive been in contact with him for so long. How could I not know what secret his blood has? she said in a deliberately disdainful tone. Where on earth did you get this fake news from? and youre covering it up so tightly, what a joke! If there was really something wrong with his blood, how could the killer organization not have found out? Lucas, is your brain filled with water?
Shuyin paused and said in an infuriating tone,Oh, no, its all a virus. His brain has been eaten, so hes an idiot.
Even a man made of mud would have a temper, not to mention the neurotic Lucas!
He was so angry with Shuyin that his hands were trembling. He wanted to p Shuyin to death, but when he saw her wiping the de so nonchntly, he felt that she wasnt a good person, so he could only endure it.
Ill buy your virus, name your price!
Lucas, I dont need money. I was Jing Ruis mistress some time ago, and he gave me a lot of money!
Shuyin looked very proud of herself, as if being Jing Ruis mistress was something to be proud of. She did not look like a good woman at all.
Shuyin wasnt afraid of Lucas investigating this matter. Thanks to Jing Ruis high-profile driving to schoolst time, the matter of her being a kept woman had long been spread around the school.
This was a very goodyer of protection.
If it was true love, there was no such thing as a mistress.
Since she was already his mistress, it could only mean that her rtionship with Jing Rui was ordinary, and that they were just making a deal.
Lucas was extremely angry, and his pale face even had an abnormal blush.
He paced around the room, but couldnt think of any way to deal with Shuyin.
Lucas felt that it would be a little tricky to deal with someone who was more fearless and ruthless than him.
The most important thing was that Shuyin had no weaknesses!
He had thought that she cared about Jing Rui, but she did not care about him at all and kicked him away.
He could not use Jing Rui to threaten Shuyin anymore!
She didnt have a father or mother, and she didnt even have a friend. She couldnt even find someone to do it to!
Sigh, this kind of orphan was the worst. She had no ties and nothing to hold her back.
Lucas gritted his teeth and said,One million! Ill buy 5 ml of your virus serum!
Shuyin pursed her lips, indicating that she didnt care about his money at all.
You know how much energy it takes to develop a new type of virus. One million? Are you trying to get rid of a beggar?
Lucas was so angry that he wanted to jump off a building!
Which countrys beggar was so valuable?
Five million! It cant be any more! If you dont sell it, Ill follow you every day and steal your virus. You wont get a single cent!
Shuyin knew that she couldnt push Lucas too far.
This person was capable of doing anything. It was already not easy for him to be willing to buy it with money.
This also showed that Lucas had already regarded her as his opponent, otherwise he would not have been so easy to talk to.
Shuyin was a little happy. She felt that she was growing very quickly.
One day, she would be able to protect Jing Rui and herself with her own strength, and fight against her powerful enemy, Lucas.
Alright, Ill sell you five milliliters, she said reluctantly.But youd better stay away from me in the future. Otherwise, Ill use you as a test subject when I develop a new virus!
Seeing that Shuyin had agreed, Lucass eyes lit up with excitement!
Money wasnt a problem for him. He had a lot of money. The money he had plundered from Shuyins father, Shu Chengshan, had already exceeded 100 million.
He only gave Shuyin five million Yuan, it was nothing!
He reached out his withered hand to Shuyin.Wheres the virus? Hand it over!
Shuyinughed coldly, I gave you the virus without a single cent? You can pay half of it as a down payment first. Come here three dayster to collect the virus, and then pay the other half!
This was the mostmon way of trading in the ck market, and it was very reasonable.
Lucas cursed in his heart, little fox, youre so smart!
He asked for Shuyins ount with a cold face and transferred 2.5 million Yuan to her. Then, he swaggered out of the main entrance in anger.
After Lucas left, Shuyin heaved a sigh of relief.
No one knew that her back waspletely drenched.
When she faced Lucas, she was still under a lot of pressure.
She threw away the tissue in disgust, but still held the knife handle tightly.
The cold light reflected by the de gave her a littlefort.
This might sound ridiculous, but that was the truth. Sometimes, only a powerful weapon could bringfort to a lonely person.
Fortunately, she had always been vignt, and she had never let her guard down when she was alone. She had always hidden the knife, otherwise, who knew what would have happened tonight.
Lucas must have entered through the window. Shuyin looked at the open window, thought for a moment, and then got out of bed to close it with her knife.
However, just as her fingers touched the edge of the window, she saw a ck figure reflected on the ss!
And this figure was standing right behind her!
The lights were off in the room, and the darkness made the atmosphere seem terrifying and somber. Shuyin restrained her instinct to turn back and stabbed her back without thinking.
She had practiced these basic jabs countless times, and over the years, her speed and uracy were not bad.
However, even though she was fast, her opponent was faster than her.
The person behind her grabbed her wrist and said in a low voice,Its me!

Chapter 1124: If you want to lie, please lie for a lifetime
Trantor: 549690339
Hearing the familiar voice, Shu Yins tense body rxed.
It was good that they were not enemies!
Shuyin turned around and looked at Jing Ruis face under the moonlight. She tried her best to remain calm. Its sote, why are you here?
Jing Rui took the knife from her and put it on the table. He said coldly,My men just saw Lucas leave your room. Are you okay?
Im fine, Shu Yin said indifferently.Im still useful to him. He wont kill me, and he cant kill me.
She took her knife and walked to the bed, putting it under the pillow in front of Jing Rui.
Jing Rui frowned.Youre a girl. Dont get yourself hurt if you sleep with a knife.
I won t,
Without a knife, he would not feel safe and would lose the ability to protect himself.
Shuyin didnt care what Jing Rui thought of her. Jing Rui knew what kind of person she was two years ago.
Come back with me, you cant live here anymore!
Jing Rui took Shuyins hand and pulled her into his arms.
It had only been a short while and she was already in danger!
She had been holding a knife the whole time, and it was obvious that Lucas was a threat to her.
He workedte into the night, and because he lived next door to Shuyin, he thought that nothing would happen to her, so the security was much weaker. No one even knew that Lucas had entered Shuyins room.
If Lucas hadnt left from the front door of Shuyins room, no one would have even noticed him!
Jing Rui knew that Shuyin and Lucas had always been at odds with each other, so he rushed over as soon as he heard about Lucas.
Shuyin was very tired after being scared twice in a row. Jing Ruis chest made her feel safe and peaceful.
She leaned into his arms and pushed Jing Rui away after a minute.
Shuyin smiled faintly.I faced so many dangers in the Research Institute in the past, but I managed to survive. Now, theres only Lucas. I can handle him. If I need your help in the future, Ill definitelye to you.
This was apletely distant attitude of treating him as an ordinary friend!
And he was even colder than he was in the morning!
She was right in front of him, and he could touch her with a stretch of his hand, but he always felt that she was far away from him, as if she would disappear from his world if he did not pay attention.
This feeling was a little terrible!
Jing Rui was about to say something when his cell phone rang.
The phone was connected, and Han Fengs calm and self-reproaching voice came from the other end.Boss, Lucas has run away. More than a dozen of our brothers have been infected by the virus ball he threw out. Im afraid ... We need miss Shus help to treat them, otherwise they wont live past tonight.
Send all the infected to the hospital first. Shell be there in a while.
Jing Rui hung up the phone and told her what had happened. Shuyin agreed to go to the hospital immediately, just as he had expected.
I can save her, but I have a request.
Other than leaving me, I can agree to any other request.
Shuyin smiled and did not argue with Jing Rui about leaving him.
She said in a cold voice,you have to pay! I cant save people in the middle of the night for free, so Ill charge you ording to the degree of infection. But since were all friends, I can give you a discount.
When he went to the school to save people in the morning, he didnt mention money at all, but now he had to charge for the evening.
Jing Rui finally understood the saying that money hurt feelings.
However, he didnt hesitate at all and said,Alright, you name your price!
He didnt have much, but he had plenty of money!
This would save him the trouble of transferring the money to Shuyins ount to ensure that she didnt have to worry about food and clothing.
It was an emergency, so Shuyin took her clothes to the bathroom and changed quickly. Then she got into Jing Ruis car and drove to family MUs Hospital.
Jing Rui was driving very fast, but it did not stop him from talking.
He wanted to exin to Shuyin what had happened during the day.
Yinyin, what Xixi said in school ...
You dont have to say anything.
He was interrupted by Shuyin halfway through his sentence.
I dont want to know anything. The more I know, the faster I die. I still want to live for two more years. If you have any secrets, please keep them to yourself. Dont tell me anything for the rest of my life.
Curiosity killed the cat. Although Shuyin was dying to know the secret in Jing Ruis blood and to confirm if the virus in his body was the same as Jing Zhi s, she controlled herself.
If it was someone else, Shuyin might not have been able to hold it in. She might have thought of ways to get some of the other partys blood for a secret test.
But this was Jing Rui, and she could not bear to kill him.
Jing Rui was surprised to hear that she refused to know his secret.You dont want to know?
I don t!
Shuyin didnt want to talk to him about this, because there was no point in talking about it now.
Drive well. Youre driving so fast. If youre distracted, youll easily get into an ident. Its fine if I die, but the dozens of people infected with the virus will die with me.
Her words had inadvertently brought her own emotions into it, and it was a little piercing.
Jing Ruis car screeched to a stop and came to a quick stop.
He stared at the side of Shuyins face and said in a cold tone,Do you think that in my heart, those dozen people are more important than you?
Shuyin was startled by his sudden stop. Her voice was even colder than his. Its fine if you dont want to save me. Im going back to the hotel!
As she spoke, she unbuckled her seat belt, opened the car door, and got out.
Shuyin was very upset and physically exhausted today. She had just gotten over the fear that Lucas had brought her, and now she had to quarrel with Jing Rui again. She couldnt take it anymore.
Was she important?
She was the only one in the world who felt that she was important. To others, she was dispensable.
She trusted Jing Ruis character, but she did not think that she was so charming that she could upy an important position in Jing Ruis heart.
If he really thought that she was important, he would havee to find her a long time ago, and not wait until midnight to see Lucas leave her room and then appear in front of her!
What had he been busy with the entire afternoon and night?
No matter what he was busy with, it meant that she was not as important as what he was busy with!
A womans intuition was always frighteningly urate.
Even if Shuyin did not know what Jing Rui was thinking, she could guess her position in Jing Ruis heart based on her intuition.
No matter how steady and mature she was, she was only an 18-year-old girl.
When one fell in love with someone, even if they quarreled or wanted to break up, they would still hope that the person woulde to exin andfort them.
At the very least, this could prove that he didnt love the wrong person.
She had to admit that she had been waiting for him the entire day.
Chapter 1125
Chapter 1125: I dont agree to break up with you!
Trantor: 549690339
In the dark night, the streetlights on both sides of the street glowed, making Shu Yins shadow long.
It waste at night, and there were almost no pedestrians or cars. She was the only one walking on the road.
Jing Rui got out of the car and looked at the thin figure that was getting further and further away. He was extremely upset.
He had long known that she was aloof and proud. He had long known that she lived alone in the world and should have brought her warmth earlier.
He strode towards Shuyin and caught up with her quickly. He held her hand and pressed her into his arms, ignoring her struggles.
Yinyin, its my fault. Its my fault. I know youre very tired today, and it was my selfish intention to bring you out of the hotel. I wanted you to stay by my side for a while longer.
Shuyin had regained her calm and rationality. She didnt want Jing Ruis men to be sacrificed, and she had to save them if she could.
Alright, lets go. I still need time to prepare the medicine. Lets not dy.
They still didnt know what virus Lucas had used on those people, and Shuyin wasntpletely confident that she could save them all.
The two of them went back to the car and did not speak again on the way.
But Jing Rui did not let go of Shuyins hand.
Heughed bitterly in his heart because Shuyin wasnt like other girls who were shy and embarrassed. He had just apologized and she had epted it. She was so magnanimous that it made him feel ufortable.
He didnt know if this was a good thing or a bad thing. He hoped that Shuyin wouldnt be so magnanimous and that she would be calctive with him.
Although Shuyin had decided not to be with Jing Rui, her trust in Him had not diminished.
By his side, she was the most stable.
She tried to pull her hand back a few times, but to no avail. She let him hold her hand and then leaned back, her whole body rxed.
When she arrived at the hospital, she was so dazed that she almost fell asleep.
Shuyin rubbed her face to wake herself up. Then, she went into the hospital to check on those peoples virus infection.
Fortunately, all the viruses were the same. Shuyin had seen them before and could solve them.
Fortunately, Lucass talent in this area was average. Otherwise, with his madness, he would definitely be able to develop a virus that Shuyin had never seen before.
In the past two years, he had been pursuing a virus that could make him stronger and dy aging, so he hadnt done much research on viruses that could harm people. The virus he was using this time was an old variety developed by the Research Institute many years ago.
Shuyin concocted a type of medicine to ease everyones pain before she started to concoct the medicine.
Not all viruses could be quickly killed by medicine. Even the flu virus would survive in the body for many days. Even if one took injections and medicine, it would not be cured on the same day. There would always be a transition period.
The more powerful the virus, the longer the transition period.
Therefore, after Shuyin prescribed the medicine, the dozen or so people didnt seem to get much better even after getting injections.
It was to the extent that everyone was a little suspicious of her ability.
It wasnt the first time that Shuyin had been suspected, but she didnt take it to heart. Otherwise, she would be angered to death by these people.
Most people wouldnt be able to take it if their ability was doubted after they came to save someone out of kindness.
She gave all the potions to Han Feng and told him the specific usage and dosage. Then she was ready to leave.
Han Feng held the medicine and looked at his brothers who were half-dead on the hospital bed. Finally, he couldnt help but ask her,Miss Shu, are my brothers lives in danger? Theyve been following me through life and death, and theyre all tough men. Theyre also my brothers and sisters. Will your medicine work?
Shuyin had a good impression of Hanfeng. He was loyal, capable, loyal, and had a clear distinction between love and hate. If he had not been Jing Ruis follower, he would have made a name for himself.
She smiled at Han Feng.Dont worry. Youve said it yourself. Theyre all tough men. Theyre all in good physical condition. They wont die. Its just that I might not be able to get out of bed for a few days, but Ill be fine after a week.
Thats good! Thank you for saving her. We brothers owe you a favor.
No need to thank me. Just return the favor to Jing Rui. I did note here for nothing. He promised to pay me.
Han Fengs words of gratitude were stuck in his throat, and his face turned red.
This girl was only after money!
He actually settled the score with boss so clearly!
Women were really fickle!
Yesterday, they were still as sweet as honey, but today, they just left.
Brothers are still the best. If theres any conflict, they can immediately resolve it with a fight. Women are too troublesome.
Shuyin was already a girl who didnt like to cause trouble. If the boss couldnt handle it, if it was another girl who could cause trouble, how could she have a peaceful life?
Jing Rui looked at his men and saw Shu Yin and Han Feng talking at the door.
His face turned cold and he immediately said,Hanfeng, are you very free?
Han Feng was so scared that he shivered and quickly ran away with the medicine!
He had only said a few words to Shuyin, and boss was about to fly into a rage. He should stay away from Shuyin in the future!
Jing Rui strode to Shuyin and stared at her for a long time before he said,Lets go. Ill send you home to rest.
Shu Yins beautiful face was filled with exhaustion. She shook her head and said,No need, I can go back to the hotel by myself. Just remember to pay. There are 13 people here, and I just used a lot of expensive medicine from the hospital. You can just pay me 30000 Yuan each.
Money is not a problem. Ill transfer it to youter. Ill send you back first.
Jing Rui said and walked out first.
Shuyin didnt have the energy to argue with him anymore. When they got outside, she got into his car, but she didnt agree to go to his vi.
Go back to the hotel. Im not going to your house.
She sounded determined. Jing Rui did not force her and drove her back to the hotel.
He followed her all the way into Shuyins room, which made Shuyin a little angry.This is my room, get out! Im going to rest!
Jing Rui picked her up and put her down on the bed, as if he did not hear her. He took off her shoes, then his own, andy down next to Shuyin.
Shu Yin panicked, and her voice lost its usual calmness andposure. She said a little frantically,What are you doing? We broke up! Get out!
I forgot to tell you, this hotel is mine, so all the rooms here are mine! Youll just stay in my house!
He pressed Shuyin into his arms domineeringly and didnt let her move. He said lightly,Also, you were the one who suggested the breakup. I never agreed to it! Is there a problem with me hugging my girlfriend to sleep in my own house?

Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin was helpless.
He was not as thick-skinned as the other party and could not beat him. He could not even struggle to leave the hotel.
She knew that family Jing was the most powerful family in A city, but she had never expected that a hotel she had found would be owned by family Jing.
She was held in Jing Ruis arms. She was a little angry but also a little amused.A breakup is one-sided, and no one will say anything. However, its illegal for you to force me now!
Yes. If you think this is illegal, you can call the police now. Lets see if Zheng Jing has the guts to arrest me.
Although Shuyin had never spoken to Zheng Jing, she knew his identity and his close rtionship with family Jing.
Who would dare to arrest Jing Rui in A city?
Then I wont sleep anymore. Its already dawn and I have to go to school. Let go of me.
Since Shuyin had decided to break up with Jing Rui, she didnt want to be entangled with him anymore. Otherwise, she would be the one who fell for him.
The sense of loneliness from yesterday still lingered. She wrapped her heart up again, and her desire to live alone had not changed.
Jing Rui knew that Shuyin would not give in so easily. Feelings were different from transactions, and it took time to melt a persons heart.
Of course, he wasnt someone who wouldpromise easily.
Especially when it came to rtionships, he knew very well what he wanted and would not let Shuyin leave so easily.
He was still hugging Shuyin. He was afraid that she would fly into a rage out of humiliation, so his hands were very well-behaved and he didnt move.
I didnt sleepst night, so Im sleepy now. I cant sleep if I dont hug you.
Jing Ruis eyes were slightly bloodshot. Shu Yins heart softened at one nce.
The pressure he was under was unimaginable to outsiders. Perhaps he was really busy the whole day yesterday, so he didnt have time to look for her?
Shuyin suddenly wasnt as angry as before. Didnt she always know that he was the kind of person who separated his feelings and career clearly?
She had thought that Jing Rui was very attractive, but why was he so delicate now?
She rxed and stopped struggling. Shey in Jing Ruis arms and listened to his even breathing. She gradually felt sleepy.
In her half-awake state, she felt the breath above her head be hot. A gentle kissnded on her forehead, and Shuyin opened her eyes.
She had always been very alert when she slept, and it was extremely difficult for her to fall asleep when there was someone beside her.
But this man was Jing Rui, and her vignce was so low that she only woke up after he kissed her.
Yinyin, did I wake you up?
Jing Rui kissed her eyebrows, his voice low and sexy. Seeing that Shuyin had woken up, he moved his hand up from her waist to her chest.
Im sorry, I couldnt control myself, but I was a gentleman before you woke up. I didnt touch your body, nor did I take away your first kiss. I think its better to kiss you when youre awake, dont you think?
Shuyin couldnt be more clear-headed!
She didnt even want to be so clear-headed!
Because Jing Ruis hand had given her too much stimtion.
She knew that she couldnt sleep with him!
He actually had the nerve to say that he was a gentleman. This was simply taking advantage of someones difficulties!
And he even said such embarrassing words to her with his thick skin!
Shuyins face was burning and her heart was beating fast. She held Jing Ruis hand and scolded him,Jing Rui! Get out, I dont want to sleep with you anymore! Youre a hooligan!
Jing Rui did not hear what she said. He looked at Shuyins Red lips. He had been holding it in for a long time.
Yinyin, Im serious about you. You cant run away.
As he spoke, he lowered his head without hesitation and kissed Shuyin on the lips.
Shuyin only felt her mind explode, and she even forgot to resist.
His kiss seemed a little awkward. It was obviously his first kiss, but he had mastered it without a teacher. He quickly mastered the technique and began to plunder wildly.
He kissed her so intensely that Shuyin only pushed him a little symbolically before she copsed in his arms.
She liked him from the bottom of her heart, and she could not refuse such a kiss.
Their lips and tongues were entangled, and their breaths intertwined. It was unknown who was seducing who. When they stopped, they were already drunk and did not know what was happening.
Jing Ruis hand lingered on Shuyins smooth back, making her shiver and bury herself in Jing Ruis arms.
Jing Rui liked it when she snuggled. It was only in times like this that Shuyin would show her feminine side. She was so charming that it made his blood boil.
If you dare to leave me again, Ill punish you severely. Yinyin, Ill let you go today, but I may not be able to control myself next time.
Jing Rui bit Shuyins lips as he spoke. He let go of her in satisfaction when he saw that her lips were bright and juicy.
Shuyin felt a little pain from his bite, but it was more of a joyous experience she had never experienced before.
She suddenly understood why some men and women in the Research Institute were particrly keen on doing certain sports.
She did not know how to face Jing Rui now that things hade to this.
Just now, she seemed to have ... Taken the initiative to kiss him.
Im by your side, sleep!
Jing Ruis heart softened when he saw her lying in his arms.
Last night, when he heard that Lucas had left Shuyins room, he was furious.
If anything happened to Shuyin while she was by his side, he would regret it for the rest of his life!
He wondered how she managed to confront Lucas. It was impressive that a weak girl like her could go against a lunatic like Lucas.
Jing Rui touched her tender face tenderly, held her tightly and fell asleep with her.
It was already evening when the two of them woke up again.
Shuyin opened her eyes and saw the sunlight shining on Jing Ruis handsome face, making him look even more handsome.
He used one of his arms as a pillow for her and wrapped the other around her waist. Their posture was intimate and doting, as if he was afraid that she would run away. He hugged her very tightly.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, he was wearing a simple white shirt. Under the shirt, his firm pectoral muscles and the smooth muscle lines on his arms could be vaguely seen.
Shuyin blushed and bit her lip. She felt that even if she slept with him, she would still be the one taking advantage of him.
Yinyin, why are you blushing? I dont think I did anything?
Shuyin was shocked. She didnt expect him to pretend to be asleep even though he was already awake. She was caught peeking at him. She stammered,I didn t, y-y-you ... Youre mistaken! Its ... A problem with the lighting!
She still wanted to exin, but her lips were sealed.
His kiss was lingering and intense, as if he wanted to melt her and swallow her up bit by bit.
It doesnt matter, Yinyin. You like me, so you dont need to exin! I know Im handsome!

Chapter 1127: Jealous
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyinughed at his arrogance and narcissism, but he was speaking the truth, and she couldnt refute him.
Shuyin had never seen a man more handsome and outstanding than him.
She panted slightly andughed secretly. When she was doneughing, she said seriously,Youre the best, Ive always known that!
Jing Rui was in a good mood after being praised by the woman he liked.
Im not the best, theres someone whos better than me,he said modestly.
Shuyin subconsciously felt that it was impossible. She raised her head and asked with her eyes wide open,Did I?
She looked innocent and pure. In her clear eyes, there was only admiration for him. It was as if in her heart, he was the real number one in the world.
Jing Rui was pleased by her and thought that Shuyin was really cute today.
He chuckled and said,yes!
Shuyin didnt think that that person could make Jing Rui admit defeat. She asked,Who is it?
Jing Rui rubbed her delicate nose and said with a smile,My dad!
Shuyin suddenly felt that she had been yed by him. She was so angry that she hit his chest.
Shuyin was no stranger to the name of Jing Ruis father, Jing Yichen.
This was because both the Research Institute and the assassin organization had a deep fear of this name.
Family Jings investments and industries were all over the world and they were very influential. If Jing Yichen didnt have any means, family Jing wouldnt have been able to develop so well.
Jing Rui thought that it was normal for his father to be so powerful.
However, Shuyin suddenly felt a little nervous.
She wondered if such a powerful person would like her. What if he did not like her?
Jing Rui seemed to be able to read her mind. He smiled and said,My dad likes you, so does my mom, and my sister.
Shuyins face turned red. She felt that it was too early to say this!
Most importantly, I like it!
Shuyins face turned even redder. She had never heard Jing Rui confess his love so formally.
Her heart was beating so fast that it felt like it was going to jump out of her chest.
She hated herself for not being able to live up to expectations and said,I havent decided yet. Youre still under observation!
Jing Rui kissed her forehead with a smile.Okay. The probation period. He said.
The treatment during the probation period was better than that of the official period, so lets just observe!
Anyway, the little woman was in his arms, and he could eat her at any time.
Jing Rui held Shuyin in his arms and talked to her in a low voice. With a beauty in his arms, he felt like he was not going to attend morning court.
As he spoke, he still asked his concern,Yinyin, why did Lucase to see youst night? Did he threaten you?
Shuyin was stunned, but she sighed in her heart.
She could not help but talk about the secret of Jing Ruis blood.
Yes, he threatened me. Hes always been a despicable person, she said indifferently.
Jing Ruis heart skipped a beat. He held her hand and asked softly,What did I threaten you with?
He threatened me that if I didnt listen to him, he would reveal the secret of your blood to the public and let the people from the Research Institute upy A city.
What? Jing Rui was stunned and frowned.How did he know about this?
Shuyin put on a nk and innocent look, like a harmless little white rabbit.I kept asking him what the secret in your blood was, but he refused to tell me. He even extorted me for the virus I developed.
Jing Rui could not help butugh when he saw her acting.
He believed that Shuyin wasnt lying. He also believed that Shuyin had handled the matter very well.
This little woman was his. She had carefully protected his secret, and she made him feel satisfied and proud!
He caressed her soft hair affectionately and said in a low voice,Yinyin, I did guard against you in the past, but I didn t. Im not trying to hide the secret of the blood. Were going to be together in the future. Youre a virologist, so how can you hide that?
From the beginning to the end, Shuyin didnt want to break up with him because he hid the virus from her. It was because she couldnt find a sense of belonging. It was because she realized that she was being rejected by them.
She was afraid of being abandoned, so she gave up first.
She did not know if Jing Rui had really wanted to tell her about the virus, but she chose to believe him.
She had trusted him for a long time, and she felt that he would not lie about anything he said.
With his pride, he wouldnt bother to lie, right?
Shu Yins voice was no longer as rxed and happy as before. She whispered to Jing Rui,I dont know where Lucas heard it from, but hes not sure if its true. You cant get hurt in the near future. Im afraid hell try to take your blood for testing.
Jing Rui was relieved that she was finally willing to discuss the issue with him.
This meant that she was no longer angry.
Jing Rui kissed her forehead and the tip of her nose gently and said,Ill be careful. You have to be careful too. Next time something like this happens again, youre not allowed to bear the responsibility alone. You have to tell me, even if you quarrel with me. Youre not allowed to be angry.
If Shuyin didnt tell her that Lucas already knew about the virus, she wouldnt even be able to exin herself if Lucas used her of being the one who leaked the secret.
She was so stupid and stubborn. She would rather risk being misunderstood than make up with him.
Shuyin was silent for a long time. She was already used to bearing the burden alone.
Although the feeling of having someone to rely on was good and made her feel happy, if she lost this person, she would also be so miserable that all her bubbles would burst.
Actually, Lucas is the same as me, she said in a rxed tone.He instinctively doesnt believe that this virus can survive on other people. This is the mindset left behind by the people at the Institute. Im just suspecting it, but I cant be sure. Your vital signs are simr to Jing Zhi s, but theyre quite different.
For example, recovery. Ive treated both of your wounds, but Jing Zhis wounds recover several times faster. He never has a fever, but you did after you were burnedst time.
And the most obvious ones are his body temperature and heartbeat. Although yours is lower than the average person s, Jing Zhis is much lower than the average person s.
People were different. Some people were born with a high body temperature, while others were born with a low body temperature. Jing Ruis body temperature was low, but some ordinary people also had the same body temperature.
There was no one else in the world who had the same low temperature as Jing Zhi.
Shuyin went on and on about the differences between the two brothers, some of which even Jing Rui himself did not notice.
As he listened, he suddenly felt jealous!
Alright, dont say anymore!
Shuyin looked at him, baffled. She didnt understand why he had suddenly changed his attitude.
Jing Rui was not an emotional person.

Chapter 1128: Im worried about you, but youre acting like a hooligan
Trantor: 549690339
Seeing that Shuyin was not aware of it, Jing Rui gritted his teeth and said,You seem to be very familiar with that brat, even remembering his data so clearly. Youre not allowed to remember him in the future!
Shuyin was stunned for a while before she reacted. He was feeling sour.
She couldnt help but smile. This person was really jealous of her own brother!
Ive been taking care of him in the Research Institute for so long. Every week, Ill record his body temperature, weight, heartbeat, and so on. These data are shared with the Research Institute. Not only me, but everyone has long since memorized it by heart!
Shuyin exined with a smile. She couldnt let Jing Rui have such a misunderstanding.
It would be troublesome if he beat Jing Zhi up. Jing Zhi would definitelye to her for revenge.
Then you have to record my physical condition every day and memorize my data! I have to be more familiar with it than him!
Jing Ruis overbearing tone made Shuyin feel likeughing. It was rare for her to see such a childish side of this powerful man.
Why would I record your data? Its not like Im using you for research. Its very troublesome to record every day. I still have other things to do!
Then you can use me for your research. Arent you curious why I have the same virus as ah Chi? This is a world-ss problem that your Research Institute hasnt been able to solve even after emptying out the finances of several countries!
Oh? Shuyins eyes lit up.Youre willing to let me research it?
I am willing to! Jing Rui said with a smile.
That tone was as if Shuyin had just asked,are you willing to marry me?
However, Shuyin quickly calmed down. She shook her head and said softly,No, forget it. I dont want to experiment on you. I dont want to draw your blood for research.
In the past, she was very resistant to others drawing her blood. Every time she saw her blood being drawn into the tube, she would feel inexplicably irritable and ufortable, even causing a series of symptoms such as vomiting and dizziness.
Later on, when she grew up, her mental strength became stronger. She also kept hypnotizing herself, which made her feel much better.
However, she still hated it when people drew her blood, and she didnt like injections.
Jing Zhi was the same, but he was extremely irritable and had to kill people every time to calm down.
This was actually a serious psychological trauma, because their childhood had left an indelible psychological shadow.
Shuyin could hypnotize herself to mediate, but Jing Zhi couldn t. Besides, the virus in his body easily stimted his battle instincts, so his situation was much more serious than Shuyin s.
But Jing Rui did not have such a problem.
It was normal to draw some blood. He felt that if Shuyin wanted to study it, then he could do it.
She was a very rational woman. After being oppressed and tortured for so many years in the Research Institute, she was still a normal person without any signs of psychological distortion. This was enough to show that her inner strength was not below his.
In the past, she had always been able to resist drawing blood from Jing Zhi. She hadnt lost her humanity because of her research on viruses.
When it came to him, she would not.
Its fine. If you want to know how I was able to withstand this virus, feel free to study it. Id like to know the answer myself.
Jing Rui said in a rxed tone. He did not hate the virus. It had be a part of his body and had been working well. It did no harm except for causing the death of others. He could not hate it even if he wanted to.
Shuyin suppressed the temptation of the virus and the excitement of developing a virus that could allow the entire human races genes to evolve. She still shook her head.I dont want to study it. As long as your body is fine, its fine.
Human evolution had always been progressing slowly. Shuyin felt that she shouldnt be so noble as to use the man she loved to do research and benefit all of mankind. She was just a small figure abandoned by her parents. She wasnt that noble.
He could save a few people if he could, but he could forget about the rest.
Her greatest wish in life was to have chicken wings for every meal and live a stable life.
Jing Ruis expression turned strange when he heard her words.Youre right. There might really be a problem with my body, but I still need to verify it.
Shuyin was stunned. She asked nervously,Are you not feeling well? Where? How long has it been? What are the symptoms? I dont remember anything wrong with Jing Zhi!
Oh, it hasnt been too long. Ever since I met you, Ive been feeling ufortable from time to time. As for the symptoms ...
Jing Rui said as he held Shuyins hand. Youll know when you touch it!
Shuyin had been listening attentively, and when she heard that it was rted to her, she couldnt help but frown. When her hand touched something hard, she finally realized that she had been fooled by Jing Rui again!
She retracted her hand as if she had been scalded, and her face was redder than the sunset!
You ... You, you, you, how can you be like this! I was still worried about your health, but you ...
Hes a hooligan!
Seeing that Shuyin was about to go berserk, Jing Rui quickly said,Im not joking. I might not be able to have children, but I havent tested it yet, so I wanted to ask you!
Shuyin immediately thought of the research report on Jing Zhis body from the Research Institute. It did mention that Jing Zhi was infertile.
It was just that Shuyin had never thought of having a child before, and most of the people in the Research Institute were infertile. Even if they could give birth, they wouldnt be willing to, so she didnt care too much about this matter.
She was stunned when she heard Jing Ruis words.
However, the blush on her face still hadnt disappeared.
Because Jing Rui had been emphasizing that he had not verified it.
It was obvious that he was trying to prove it with her.
Shuyin lowered her head and said in a voice as low as a mosquito s,How would I know?
In fact, the Research Institute had tens of thousands of frozen egg cells, frozen sperm, and frozen embryos collected from all over the world. Shuyin specialized in gics and viruses, so she had toe into contact with these things.
However, she had no idea about these things before, because a frozen egg cell or sperm was invisible to the naked eye. They were sealed in a chamber and were not much different from human stem cells or tumor cells.
They could only be seen under a high power microscope.
However, these cells would never make Shuyin think of anything else. When she left the Research Institute, she was only seventeen years old. She had neither experience nor needs in that area, and her imagination was extremely limited.
In the past, she had studied sperm as if it were ordinary cells, but the cells had the function of forming an individual.
But from today onwards, Shuyin felt that she would no longer be so simple-minded!
It was all Jing Ruis fault!
How was she going to continue her research in the future?!

Jing Rui did not discuss the issue of having children with Shuyin anymore. She was only eighteen years old. Even if she liked children, she would not want to have children so early.
Anyway, there would be plenty of opportunities to verify it in the future. He couldnt push Shuyin too hard.
Ill bring you to my house for dinner tomorrow. My mom has always wanted to see you.
Jing Rui said the breaking news as he held Shu Yin in his arms.
Ah? Im not going!
Shuyin subconsciously refused because this was too much like a daughter-inw meeting her mother-inw!
She wasnt prepared at all!
She was not confident that she could make Jing Ruis mother like her.
She was someone who didnt even like her own mother, and she had an instinctive fear of her elders.
Its okay, dont worry. My mom is a good person. Although my dad is a little cold, he wont make things difficult for you. If they make things difficult for you, just tell me and Ill run away with you!
Shuyins nervousness was relieved by Jing Rui. Sheughed and said,I thought you were a very filial son!
Yeah, Im quite filial! At the very least, hes better than my dad and has found a girlfriend so early. When he was pursuing my mom, he was already in his thirties. Fortunately, hes handsome and young, or my mom wouldnt have been deceived by him!
Shus music was unbeatable. Jing Rui had thought that his father was the best in the world and that Jing Yichen was the best. But he had sold Jing Yichen out so quickly.
She had never known that Jing Rui could be so humorous.
Shuyin rxed, but she still felt that it was inappropriate to meet Jing Ruis parents now.
Moreover, it would be too rushed if she went tomorrow. She didnt have suitable clothes to wear, and she didnt know what they liked or prepare gifts for them.
It would be impolite toe empty-handed.
Shuyin didnt have parents to teach her since she was young, so she didnt know much about etiquette. However, she remembered that when she was young, people would always bring small gifts to her when they visited her house. Very few people would go empty-handed.
After a while, when things settle down, Ill go visit uncle and Auntie. Its too rushed to go tomorrow.
Shuyins tone was pleading. She was really afraid of meeting Jing Ruis parents. It felt like she had been studying for a few days and had to take the exam tomorrow, but she had no confidence in her results.
Jing Rui wanted to bring Shuyin home, but it was just a spur of the moment idea. He couldnt help but find it funny when he saw that she was scared.
He had thought that she was not afraid of anything, but it turned out that she was afraid of meeting her inws!
It was really strange!
This indirectly reflected that she actually cared a lot about him. Otherwise, she wouldnt be afraid of meeting his parents.
Jing Rui had finally found a powerful weapon to counter Shuyin. He smiled and said in a low voice,Alright, Ill give you some time to prepare!
Shuyin heaved a huge sigh of relief!
Thats great, I dont have to go tomorrow!
She got out of bed and pushed Jing Rui out of bed.Its dark, you should go home!
I wont go back if you don t.
Jing Rui was lying on the bedzily with his hands behind his head, looking straight at Shuyin.
Shuyin didnt dare to sleep on the same bed as him anymore. He kept touching her, making her feel ufortable all over.
She got out of bed and smiled.Sure. This hotel belongs to your family. You can stay anywhere you want. Ill just change to another one! I dont believe that all the hotels in A city are owned by your family!
Jing Rui had already experienced Shuyins stubbornness.
It was not easy for her to move into the vi with him. Now that she was out, the possibility of her going back was slim.
Forget it. It didnt matter where Shuyin lived anyway. He could just live with her.
Jing Rui also got up, ordered dinner, and ate with Shuyin.
Shuyin had been starving for a long time, but she had been holding it in. When the hotel sent her food, she didnt care even if Jing Rui didnt give her chicken wings on purpose.
Jing Rui nodded in satisfaction when he saw that she had eaten a lot of vegetables and fish today.It seems like you can still be an omnivorous animal. You refused to eat before because you were deliberately picky.
Shuyin didnt have a choice. She couldnt control what she liked to eat or not.
But she felt that eating with Jing Rui would improve her appetite.
He ate a lot, fast, and was not picky. More importantly, his eating movements were very elegant, revealing his aristocratic temperament.
Even Shuyin was a little envious of him. A man who looked good even when he was eating, his charm was off the charts!
Jing Rui sipped the soup elegantly and said,Yinyin, are you going to eat me instead of chicken wings?
Shuyin blushed. She stared at Jing Rui. He had found out!
She lowered her head in a panic and ate big mouthfuls of food to cover up her embarrassment.
It was only eighto clock in the evening when the two of them finished dinner. They had slept enough during the day and were in high spirits.
Shuyin had wanted to drive Jing Rui away, but she couldnt bear to.
She liked it when he was by her side.
I dont have any clothes to wear, and Im alsocking some daily necessities. The mall shouldnt be closed right now, right?
Jing Rui walked to her side, took her hand and led her out.
What are you doing? Shuyin asked, puzzled.
Ill go shopping with you.
I can buy things very quickly, I dont need anyone to apany me.
Oh, do you need someone to help you carry your bags?
I dont have a bag to carry.
Shuyins bag was a backpack, so strictly speaking, she really didnt need to carry it.
Jing Rui was not affected at all. He said calmly,Then you must becking a driver!
Shuyin was about to say that she could take a taxi when Jing Rui lowered his head and covered her mouth.
After a long and passionate kiss, Shuyin leaned into Jing Ruis arms and panted. She said in a soft voice that she had never used before,Youe with me ...
Jing Rui replied with a soft hmm and left the hotel with her.
The night in A city was brightly lit, and the streets were bustling with people. It was the busiest time of the year.
Shuyin took Jing Ruis arm and followed him along the street.
There were quite a number of street vendors selling snacks, and the fragrance of the food was so appetizing that it made peoples fingers Twitch.
There were also a few children holding arge bouquet of roses, selling them to the pedestrians with crisp voices.
There was a little girl who was about 11 or 12 years old. She had two braids and her eyes were darting around. When she saw Jing Rui and Shuyin, she immediately went up to them and said,Sir, please buy a rose for your girlfriend! Shes so beautiful, she should have the most beautiful rose!
Jing Rui liked the girl a lot when she called him girlfriend, even though he knew that she would say the same thing to any man.
He turned to look at Shuyin. Her face was slightly red, but her eyes were bright. He held Shuyins hand tightly and said to the little girl,Ill take all your flowers!
Chapter 1130
Chapter 1130: Doting
Trantor: 549690339
Roses were sold for 20 yuan each, and if you met someone who liked to bargain, 15 yuan was also considered a price.
When the little girl heard that the other party actually wanted all of them and did not bargain at all, she was immediately overjoyed. She could make a lot of money tonight!
He was so lucky to have met a spendthrift tycoon!
She had been selling flowers for a long time and was very experienced. As soon as she heard that Jing Rui wanted all of them, she immediately stuffed a big bouquet of roses into Shuyins arms, but Shuyin only took one.
I dont want that much, just one rose is enough.
Shuyin held a half-bloomed rose and lowered her head to smell the fragrance. She turned to Jing Rui and said,Its not convenient to carry so many flowers. One flower or a Hundred Flowers, its all the same to me, as long as you buy them!
Her words were so emotional and gentle that Jing Rui wanted to hold her in his arms and kiss her in the street.
There was a certain emotion surging in his eyes as he said softly,Alright, Ill listen to you.
As long as Shuyin liked it, as long as she was willing, anything was fine.
His desire to control her crumbled in an instant in front of her delicate appearance.
Jing Rui only asked for one rose and gave a hundred Yuan note to the girl.
She could have sold all the flowers, but because of Shuyins words, she could only sell one flower.
The girl was very angry and did not look good. When she epted Jing Ruis money, she immediately raised the price to 50 yuan for one flower and gave Jing Rui the change.
Anyway, he didnt ask about the price, and it wasnt the first time the little girl had done something like asking for a price!
Jing Rui had not asked for the price, but he could hear that there were couples buying flowers for other children not far away, and the price was 20 yuan each.
He knew that he had been tricked by this innocent-looking little girl.
To Jing Rui, it did not make much of a difference whether she was 50 or 20. He did not say anything, but looked at the girl indifferently, and left with Shuyin.
As long as Shuyin was happy, he wouldnt argue with a little girl about the price. He didntck money.
Shuyin deserved the best roses!
Even if the roses today cost 5000 Yuan each, he would buy them without hesitation.
Shuyin hugged the Rose and leaned on Jing Ruis shoulder with a happy expression. She said,Fifty Yuan each, thats too expensive! Luckily, we didnt buy everything. Save the money and buy me chicken wings!
Jing Ruiughed. He held Shuyins waist and kissed her forehead. Youre not even married to me yet, and youre already saving money for me? My woman, you really know how to live. Ill buy you chicken wings tomorrow.
Shuyin felt like she was bursting with happiness!
There were beautiful roses and fragrant chicken wings. There was also a tall and handsome man beside her. It attracted the jealousy of countless women around!
The joy from the bottom of her heart spread through her body, and her entire person felt rxed and happy.
Her eyes curved into crescents as she smiled.I think this is the happiest day of my life!
Jing Rui was also in a good mood. He had never gone shopping and was not in the mood. He did not like the feeling of being crowded. He would feel ufortable if someone was too close to him.
But today, he didnt have any of that. He really enjoyed taking Shuyin out for a walk.
He held Shuyin tightly in his arms to prevent anyone from bumping into her.
When Jing Rui was a child, he did not understand why his father would stay with his mother every time she went shopping, even if he had to throw away his work and pile up a mountain of documents. He would also follow his mother back home with big and small bags, still smiling happily.
At that time, he would rather sleep at home than go shopping, because his mothers shopping speed was too slow and torturous!
She would try on everything she saw, and when she bought something, she would usually be conflicted about two colors or styles for a long time.
Her father was the only one who would be extremely patient with her.
Jing Rui finally understood that his father was not patient. He was just shopping with his beloved woman and did not find time difficult.
His father was enjoying the process of apanying his mother. That was a real husband and wife, a real life.
Thebination of a handsome man and a beautiful woman attracted a lot of attention. Jing Rui and Shuyin attracted a lot of attention along the way. Some people even thought that they were celebrities and came to ask for autographs and photos.
Han Feng and his men appeared out of nowhere and drove them away.
Jing Rui was indifferent to outsiders, so no ones gaze could affect him. He only took care of Shuyin with all his heart. When he saw that she was interested in the little things in the street stalls, he would stop and wait with her. He would be curious,pare, and pick out the things with her, even though he did not feel that they were different at all.
Although Shuyin wasnt a celebrity, herte mother was a top beauty when she was still alive. She was also a famous celebrity, and she had seen people asking their mother for autographs before.
Now that someone was asking her for an autograph, she only felt very strange.
Of course, she couldnt sign for anyone, so she didnt need to deal with them. Her attention was quickly attracted by the little things on the street.
She had very little contact with the outside world since she was young. Her memories of the small stalls were basically from before she was eight years old.
She was in high spirits as she bought this and that. When she saw that there were people haggling at the side, she suddenly realized that she could save money!
Shuyin dragged Jing Rui, who was wearing a hand-made suit that cost hundreds of thousands of Yuan and a branded watch that cost millions, into the haggling.
She was interested in many little things. After buying a few small things, she turned around and saw a couples shirt. She hesitated for a second and decided to buy it.
At first, Shuyin wasnt skilled in the business and was still cheated. However, she had a high IQ and was proficient in psychology. Half an hourter, she could already buy things at the most appropriate price.
Jing Rui did not stop her, and even helped her to bargain. After a while, he had a big bag of food and toys in his hand.
Shuyin looked at the fruits of her victory and was extremely excited. She patted Jing Ruis chest with a smile and stuffed the money she had saved into his suit pocket. Im amazing, right?
Jing Rui looked at Shu Yin, who was in high spirits. He did not know why she could be so excited just by shopping. She seemed to have be apletely different person, full of youth and carefreeness.
Perhaps she had been suppressed by those lunatics in the Research Institute for too long!
She was only 18 years old, the age where she was lively and yful. She should have held her boyfriends arm ande out to y, instead of being buried in theboratory all day long, studying those terrifying viruses that could make peoples faces change.
His heart ached a little, and he reached out to caress Shuyins slightly messy hair. His tone was subconsciously doting.Yes, amazing. My chimey is very amazing!
Chapter 1131
Chapter 1131: Hugging and kissing
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin was very happy. She looked left and right, and when she saw that no one was paying attention to them, she tiptoed and kissed Jing Rui on the lips. Then, she lowered her head and walked away in a hurry.
Jing Rui didnt expect Shuyin to kiss him. It was the first time she had kissed him, and in front of so many people.
He stretched out his finger and touched his lips that Shu Yin had kissed. There seemed to be a faint fragrance of her on them.
A smile appeared in his eyes, and he chased after her withrge strides.
There was a stall selling grilled chicken wings on the side of the street. Once Shuyin smelled it, she immediately couldnt move her feet.
She stood by the stall and looked at Jing Rui pitifully.Im hungry!
With Shuyins cold personality, it was not easy for her to act coquettishly. She had gotten closer to Jing Rui when they were shopping today, and her nature had been released.
Jing Rui could not resist her at all. He held her waist and said to the boss,Ill give my girlfriend five skewers,
One skewer had two chicken wings, so five skewers would be ten.
So many chicken wings, it was enough to satisfy her!
Shuyins eyes lit up and she jumped up to kiss Jing Ruis cheek. She said excitedly, Youre so good to me!
Jing Ruis heart softened when he was kissed by her.
He wished he could hug Shuyin and kiss her fiercely, but there were too many people here. He turned around and kissed Shuyin on the cheek, saying softly,What a silly little girl.
The owner of the barbecue stall was already used to this kind of lovey-dovey situation. Many young couples woulde to eat his barbecue at night, and there were many intimate actions between them. In contrast, it was very normal for these two to only kiss each other on the face.
He happily barbecued five chicken wings for Shuyin and sprinkled cumin and pepper on them. He saw that Shuyin was a rare beauty and was very pleasing to the eye, so he even gave her a small meat skewer.
Shuyin epted the call happily. There were still many good people in the world!
She took the wings for herself and handed the kebab to Jing Rui.Here you go, this is yours!
Jing Rui took the meat skewer andughed at her as they walked. Its sote, arent you afraid of getting fat eating so many chicken wings?
He had forgotten that he was the one who had bought so many for Shuyin!
Shu Yin didnt care about the heat of the freshly roasted chicken wing and took a bite. The tender fragrance assailed her nose, and she wanted to swallow her tongue as well.
Will you not want me anymore if I get fat? she asked in a muffled voice.
Of course not! Jing Ruiughed.
Then what am I worried about? lets eat!
This was what it meant to be fearless!
Jing Rui had dug a hole for himself!
He had to be careful when talking to this girl in the future, or he would be tricked by her if he wasnt careful!
It wasnt good for his girlfriend to be too smart. It would cost him a lot of brain cells.
Shuyin ate happily as she walked, and she would even go over to take a look when she saw something fun.
Jing Rui bought her some water and a pack of tissues, and wiped the marks off her lips.
Ever since Shuyin met Jing Rui, she had never thought that he would take care of her so carefully and tenderly.
He was the noblest Prince, the most arrogant killer, and the cruelest person in power.
He had always been high and mighty, and even to her, he used to be so unattainable and out of her reach.
In the past, she could only use her phone to receive his orders and execute his will without fail.
And now, he had be her boyfriend!
Fate was so magical!
All the misfortunes of the past had disappeared because of his appearance. All the pain she had suffered in the past was worth it because she had waited for him.
She had finished ten chicken wings before she knew it. She gargled and looked up, only to see Jing Ruis gentle and loving eyes.
He gently wiped the water from the corner of her lips and asked her with a smile,Are you full now? If it was someone else, they probably wouldnt be able to support you with such a big appetite.
Shu Yin stared nkly at his handsome face under the streetlights. The pale yellow light shone on his face, softening his edges and weakening his indifference, giving him a different kind of charm.
Why are you so good to me?
Jing Rui smiled.You ran away when he was nice to you. If he was not nice to you, you would have run to the ends of the earth. Where can I find you?
Shuyin reached out her slender fingers and touched Jing Ruis face. She murmured,Thank you. Im so happy today. Ive never been so happy before.
Jing Rui took her into his arms and finally kissed her.
There were people around him, but he didnt care. He just wanted to kiss her!
Shuyin shrank into his arms shyly. She was too embarrassed to kiss him in public, but she did not push him away. No one knew her anyway, so she just kissed him as she wished.
Han Feng saw his boss and Shuyin kissing so lovingly from a distance and felt that he was in a bad mood.
This was too much!
He had already been tormented for an entire night, and now he was going to give him a big one!
He was too inhumane!
Didnt he know that he didnt have a girlfriend?
Didnt she know that he didnt even have the time to fall in love?
If this went on, he was going to pull a random brother over and try to kiss him!
He was already twenty-six years old, and he had yet to give her his first kiss!
To think that he was so suave, so handsome, so well-versed in both literature and martial arts ... No woman had fallen for him!
This didnt make sense!
Even a beautiful girl like Shuyin liked his boss, who was a cold and ruthless killer. Why was he still single when he was a good boy who was loved by everyone?
This didnt make sense!
Han Fengs fragile little heart was hurt.
Jing Rui had no idea that he had beaten up his most capable man. He held the slightly panting Shuyin in his arms and walked slowly towards the hotel with her fingers intertwined.
Shuyinined softly,I ate so many chicken wings, will I die of obesity? Its all your fault for buying so much, Im going to put on weight tonight!
The little woman in love changed at the drop of a hat and pushed all the responsibility on his head. Her IQ had dropped sharply.
Jing Ruiughed in his heart. Shuyins IQ had better remain at this level, so that she would not be able to escape.
He didnt want to argue with this stubborn woman and let her be. He said with a calm face,Its okay, Ill still want you even if you die of obesity. At most, well get fatter together!
Shu Yin sized up Jing Ruis almost perfect body and asked suspiciously,You can also gain weight?
Jing Rui had strong muscles all over his body. He worked out all year round and ate several times more than her. He did not have any extra fat on his body.
Jing Rui said with certainty, Youll definitely gain weight! If you dont believe me, you can give me half of your chicken wings!

Shuyinughed. She thought that Jing Rui was very cute. He was actually coaxing her like a child.
If only the two of them could continue to be so happy!
She liked this kind of carefree and free life. It was also very lively, and she was no longer alone.
On the way back to the hotel, there were fewer and fewer people. asionally, there were a few travelers, both men and women, who would nce at Shuyin and Jing Rui. It was okay for men, as they would only nce at Shuyin when they saw Jing Rui half-hugging her.
The girls, however, were not so reserved. Some of them even screamed when they saw Jing Rui, as if they wanted to take him away from Shuyin.
In the past, Shuyin would have thought that Jing Ruis fate was not up to anyone else, but his own heart.
But Shuyin didnt think that way anymore. She couldnt give any other woman a chance to take advantage of her!
Jing Rui could only be hers!
Shuyin held Jing Ruis arm tightly to dere her sovereignty, and looked at the girls who were infatuated with Jing Rui coldly.
She didnt feel that there was anything wrong with it, but Jing Rui was very happy. She finally knew how to worry about him!
The two of them returned to the hotel in an intimate manner. Shuyin did not chase Jing Rui away. Shey down in the bedroom to rest, while Jing Rui was in the living room dealing with the matters that had piled up during the day.
Listening to Jing Ruis low voice outside the bedroom, Shuyin felt very calm, but also a little heartbroken.
If she had known that he still had to work, she would not have shopped sote. Not only did she not buy any of the clothes she wanted to buy, but she also made Jing Rui work all night.
But Jing Rui did not feel tired. He had slept for a long time during the day and was in good spirits when he worked. Most importantly, Shuyin was in the bedroom, only one step away from him.
The first thing that Han Feng told Jing Rui was about Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo.
Because Jing Rui had told her that Jing Zhis matter should be reported first.
Jing Ruis heart sank when he learned that Jing Zhi had gotten back together with Zheng yuluo.
It was easy for something to go wrong whenever Zheng yuluo was involved. Even if Zheng yuluo did not mean it, Jing Rui did not like her.
However, the person who liked Zheng yuluo was Jing Zhi, and it had nothing to do with him. As long as his brother liked her, it didnt matter if he caused trouble, as long as he didnt harm Jing Zhi.
Hanfeng, send more people to Zheng yuluos side.
This way, not only could it be used for surveince, but it could also be used for protection.
Also, increase the number of people protecting ah Chis side. Dont let anything happen to him.
Boss, youve already sent out quite a number of people. We dont have enough people. Last night, more than a dozen of our brothers were infected with the virus. I dont think theyll be able to participate in the protection mission for a while, Han Feng said, feeling a little troubled.
Jing Rui was silent for a while before he said,Withdraw the people on my side and move them to ah Chis side!
How can this be?!
Han Feng was shocked and disobeyed Jing Ruis order, which was a rare sight.Boss, the number of people youre protecting has already been reduced to the minimum, you cant lower it any further! Jing Zhi has a lot of men on his side, so you cant touch your men!
Jing Rui looked at him and said coldly,Are you the boss or am I the boss? I have to listen to you?
Of course not!
Han Feng was so anxious that his forehead was about to sweat.Youre the boss. I should listen to you! However, its too dangerous to withdraw all the people protecting you!
His main responsibility had always been to protect Jing Rui, and he loved Jing Rui more than anyone else. If anything happened to Jing Rui, the consequences would be unimaginable.
It wont be too dangerous here. Gather everyone at Chis ce first. When the dozen or so people in the hospital have recovered, they cane and protect me.
Jing Rui decided not to discuss the matter with Han Feng anymore.
He was confident in his own abilities and Han Feng would always be by his side, so he was much safer than Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi didnt know that his brother had increased the level of protection for him. He had been dealing with the bar the whole day.
Theplexity of the matter was beyond his imagination, and he was a little overwhelmed. He did not even have the time to see Zheng yuluo.
The bar had a military background and the other party was very tough. Even though they knew that he was a member of family Jing, they were still very arrogant and demanded a highpensation.
Thewyer that the other party had hired was also very capable. He was not Awyer from city a, but a well-knownwyer across the country.
Not only that, but the bar also called Xiao Ling, who had resigned and left.
He threatened that if Jing Zhi refused to pay, Xiao Ling would have to pay for the damages caused to the bar.
Jing Zhi saw Xiao Ling in his own house. He was furious when he saw her kneeling in front of him and crying.
When I ... When I left, they clearly agreed, but now theyre saying that Ive breached the contract and want me to pay more than a million Yuan. Please save me! Where can we find so much money?
Xiao Ling cried as she spoke. She had originally earned more than 10000 Yuan in one night and was very happy. Who knew that the money would be taken back by the bar before she could even warm it up, and she even owed a huge sum of money!
She didnt know Jing Zhi, but she knew that it was unreasonable to ask him to save her. But the staff at the bar hinted that she had no choice but to ask Jing Zhi for help.
She thought that Jing Zhi was rich enough topensate the bar, so she asked for Jing Zhis phone number and got in touch with him.
Luckily, Jing Zhi didnt reject her. He brought her to a luxurious vi that she had never seen before and listened to her cries in silence.
I dont have money to return to you, but I can work, I can do anything! I can help you wash your clothes, cook, and clean up! If you dont mind me being stupid, I can be your assistant and help you deal with some trivial matters at work! Please dont leave me alone ...
Xiao Ling was really scared. One million Yuan was an unimaginablyrge sum of money to her. Her family was so poor that she couldnt even bear to eat meat.
She didnt care about her dignity at the moment. She was willing to do anything as long as Jing Zhi was willing to save her.
Jing Zhi saw that her innocent face was covered in tears. He pulled her up from the ground with a frown and threw her on the sofa.
Dont just kneel! Sit down obediently, did I say Im not going to care about you? Dont cry, the more you cry, the uglier you look!
Xiao Lings tears flowed even more quickly when she heard that Jing Zhi was willing to help her.
She wailed and curled up on the sofa like a poor kitten, abandoned by its owner and unable to find her way home.
Her temperament was very simr to Zheng yuluo s, and the pure feeling on her body was also simr. Otherwise, Jing Zhi would not have taken a fancy to her at first sight that day.
At this moment, she looked even more like Zheng yuluo when she cried her heart out!
Chapter 1133
Chapter 1133: The disturbance in school
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi was not a soft-hearted man. He was even more ruthless than Jing Rui.
Because he had forgotten the past, his thinking had been changed by the Research Institute and the killer organization, and he was very cold in human nature.
He had always been indifferent to human lives.
However, his heart softened when he saw how simr Xiao Ling was to Zheng yuluo.
As he looked at Xiao Ling, all he could think of was Zheng yuluo.
He wondered what she was doing at home today. Did she go out to y? Did she miss him?
Just like Xiao Ling, she loved to cry. He didnt provoke her today, so she probably wouldnt cry anymore, right?
As Xiao mo cried, he raised his head and saw Jing Zhis gentle gaze on him. He lowered his head in a hurry, his face blushing slightly.
She actually thought that Jing Zhi was a good person. Although he looked fierce, he was actually someone she could rely on.
Whats more, she thought that Jing Zhi was so handsome that even if he was bad, he was still attractive.
The bar had made things difficult for her, but Jing Zhi had been willing to help her. He hadnt wanted anything from her, nor had he taken advantage of her. Her impression of Jing Zhi had changed in an instant.
Jing Zhi didnt know that my had misunderstood his gaze. He arranged for my to sleep in the guest room on the first floor, then went up to the third floor, entered his own bedroom, and called Zheng yuluo.
It was already veryte, but Zheng yuluo was not asleep.
She had been waiting for Jing Zhis call.
She had always thought that Jing Zhi would call her, and finally, it happened.
However, after picking up the phone and saying Hello, she did not know what else to say.
Strictly speaking, she wasnt that close to Jing Zhi. They used to be close and lived together, but they didnt interact much with each other. She didnt even know what Jing Zhi liked and didnt know what to say to avoid embarrassment.
Jing Zhi didnt have such concerns. He wanted to hear Zheng yuluos voice and know what she had done today.
Did you leave the house today?
There is.
Where did she go? Jing Zhi frowned.
What did it mean to fool around?
This persons Chinese was aplete failure!
If Zheng yuluo had not been used to the way he spoke and knew that he actually cared about her, she would definitely have thought that he was too difficult to get along with.
In fact, Jing Zhi was like that to everyone, including Jing Rui. He had even mocked Jing Rui for not being able to do that.
If she wanted to make him change, she would need to slowly get along with him in the future.
Im not fooling around, Zheng yuluo corrected him.I went to school today. My father asked me to go to school.
Studying?
Jing Zhi didnt expect Zheng yuluo to go to school, because he himself didnt go to school much. His brother joined the killer organization in the same year as him and didnt go to school anymore. Shuyin didnt go to school either. He felt that everyone didnt need to go to school at all, since they were all living quite well now.
Shuyin needed to go to school now because of Virus Research, and she was interested in that.
What about Zheng yuluo?
What are you going to school for? In order to seduce more men? Im warning you, if you dare to look for another man behind my back, Ill definitely make you regret it!
Zheng yuluo was so angry that sheughed. It seemed that no matter what happened, he could always bring it up.
How much did he care about what happened to Lou Ziyist time?
Youre so fierce, do you think Id dare to find someone else?
Zheng yuluo was no longer afraid of him, and she even dared to joke with him.
I went to school to learn more things. Otherwise, youll always call me an idiot or a pig brain. Ive always been good at studying, but Ive be stupid because youve scolded me too much!
Jing Zhi called her an idiot again, but then he said,Alright, Ill send you to school tomorrow! Which school?
Zheng yuluo didnt dare to let Jing Zhi see her off.
It was her father who had brought her to school today. In order to prevent her from going to Jing Zhi instead of school, her father had already said that he would send her to school tomorrow.
What if Jing Zhi and her father ran into each other at the house tomorrow? she wouldnt be able to exin herself.
The two of them had not finished their oldwsuit yet, and she did not want them to have a new one.
You do your thing, dont send me off.
Zheng yuluo lowered her voice and said a little timidly,Dad said that hell send me to school tomorrow. Hes a good friend of the principal, and he said that hell take me to say hello.
She hesitated again and again, but in the end, she didnt lie to Jing Zhi, even though Jing Zhi might get angry.
Jing Zhi was not happy to hear this. He felt that his presence was too weak and he could be killed by Zheng Jing in a second.
As long as Zheng Jing asked for it, Zheng yuluo would listen to him and leave him aside.
Youre going to university of X, right?
Jing Zhis tone was sour.The principal of University of X is my aunt! What use would it be if your dad went to greet him? Ill Take You There tomorrow, and Ill make sure you be the person with the most powerful backing in the entire school!
The principal of University of X was Zhao Anan, who was actually Jing Ruis aunt, not Jing Zhi s.
Jing Zhi had never seen Zhao Anan as his aunt. He didnt even remember her.
However, now was the time to pull strings and show his strength. Of course, he was not willing to show weakness.
Anyway, calling her aunt wouldnt cost her anything, so she just called her aunt casually.
Of course, Zheng yuluo knew the rtionship between Jing Zhi and Zhao Anan. She couldnt help butugh when she heard him call her aunt.
She didnt know that Jing Zhi could be so flexible.
Dad has already told me that he will be angry if I leave with you tomorrow. Can you give it to me in the future?
Not good, Ill definitely send it tomorrow!
Why are you ...
Alright, its a deal! Ill send you off tomorrow!
Jing Zhi interrupted Zheng yuluo domineeringly. He didnt give her a chance to refute and hung up the phone.
Zheng yuluo was in a difficult position. Her father wanted to send her home, and so did Jing Zhi. Both of them were very important people to her, but they had been arguing with each other recently, and she was worried sick.
She called Jing Zhi back, trying to persuade him to change his mind, but he had turned off his phone.
It seemed that he was determined to send her off!
This is troublesome!
If she had known, she wouldnt have told Jing Zhi about this. She couldve kept it from him.
Zheng yuluo had been nervous the entire night and didnt even sleep well. She was even more absent-minded in the morning, afraid that she would see Jing Zhi waiting for her outside the door.
Fortunately, when she took her time to pick up her bag and leave the house, she didnt see Jing Zhi, only her fathers car.
She heaved a sigh of relief and urged Zheng Jing to leave in case they bumped into Jing Zhi again.
Dad, lets go. Its the first day of school, dont bete!
Zheng Jing threw a suspicious look at his daughter. She had been sozy about going to school yesterday. Why was she so enthusiastic today?
Chapter 1134
Chapter 1134: Infuriated to death
Trantor: 549690339
Luoluo, youre willing to go to school?
Zheng yuluo quickly nodded and said,of course! Ive never been to college, so I really want to study there.
Didnt you say yesterday that you didnt want to go?Zheng Jing was even more suspicious.
She didnt want to go yesterday because she wanted to spend more time with Jing Zhi these days.
She wanted to go to college too, but she didnt expect it to be so soon.
Until now, she only had a high school diploma, and she barely got it.
She couldnt possibly remain a high school diploma her entire life. How would she be able to survive in society in the future?
She had never thought about her future before she found Jing Zhi.
Now that she had found Jing Zhi, she finally had the time to think about herself.
Zheng yuluo bit the bullet and continued to make up stories.I thought about itst night. I think its better to go to school first. My sister is so hardworking. As her sister, I cant hold her back. Dad, lets go. If we don t, well really bete!
She had already elevated her rtionship to the height of sisterly love, so her father should not be suspicious anymore, right?
Unfortunately, Zheng yuluo had underestimated Zheng Jings intelligence and experience. She had said that he was a Crown Prince, but it showed her guilt.
But Zheng Jing didnt want to push her too hard. He was worried about his daughter and didnt want to push her too hard.
When Jing Zhi arrived at the Zheng family, Zheng Jing and Zheng yuluo had already disappeared.
Jing Zhi was a little annoyed. It was all Xiao Lings fault. If she hadnt suddenly fallen sick, he wouldnt have beente.
However, despite his anger, he still had to drive back to the hospital.
When he left, Xiao Ling was still unconscious. It would be troublesome if something happened to her.
He couldnt just let that innocent girl die in the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, Xiao Ling was already awake.
Shey on the hospital bed, her face as white as the bedsheet. She looked so thin and weak that it seemed like a gust of wind could blow her away.
The diagnosis was out. It was severe anemia caused by malnutrition, which was why she fainted.
Jing Zhi was so angry that he pointed at her head and scolded,Are you a pig? Didnt you earn a Commission of more than 10000 Yuanst time? Dont you know how to buy yourself something to eat? If you dont eat every day, do you want to cultivate to be an immortal? Are your parents just going to watch you starve like this and not care?
You didnt eat yesterday, cant you tell me? Do you think Imcking a meal? If you die in my house, how unlucky would that be! Fortunately, I didnt bring you to my brothers ce. Otherwise, he would definitely scold me to death!
How old are you this year? Sixteen? Or seventeen? Why dont you go to school? Going to a bar to work every day, are you going to do that for the rest of your life? Shouldnt you be asking for money from your parents now?
Tears fell from Xiao Mos eyes when he heard Jing Zhis words.
She wanted to go to school, but where would she find the money?
She didnt want to work in a bar, but only in a ce like that could she earn more money. The people there were so generous, like Jing Zhi, who could change her life!
However, she also felt an inexplicable warmth.
In the past, no one cared if she went to school or not!
Even her parents didnt let her go to school. They kept forcing her to drop out of school and go home to work to earn money and help support the family.
After crying for a while, Xiao mo finally said to Jing Zhi in a low voice,Im hungry, can you buy me some porridge? Wait for me ... Wait for me to earn money and return it to you. The money for todays Hospital stay ... I will also return it.
Her voice got lower and lower, until it was almost inaudible.
Even she wasnt confident that she would be able to pay off all the debts she owed. She would never be able to pay them off even if she sold herself to Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi sneered,you shouldnt worry about money now. If you starve to death, Ill go to the ghost to collect my debt. However, its good that youre dead. I wont have to pay a single cent for the bar!
Xiao mo was stunned, and then he said bitterly,I really dont seem to be of any use living.
Her expression was too deste,pletely unlike that of a little girl, but more like a middle-aged man who had seen through the sufferings of the world. There was also no trace of the pure and fresh feeling she had before.
Jing Zhi didnt like Xiao Ling like this.
He still liked her when she was more innocent and unyielding.
Alright, dont be so desperate. Im the one who smashed the bar, so Ill pay for it. Im not even crying, so why are you crying? You better stay here. If I dont see you when Ie backter, I wont be as easy to talk to as I am now!
Jing Zhi turned around and left.
When he returned, he was carrying porridge and side dishes.
Xiao mo struggled to get up and said gratefully,Thank you. I, I, I ... Ive caused you trouble!
Dont talk nonsense! Ill still have to order you around in the future, so hurry up and eat. Youll have the strength to work after youre full!
Jing Zhis tone of voice was like that of a cheater, which scared my so much that she didnt dare to say anything else.
She was gobbling down the porridge because she was too hungry.
But Jing Zhi didnt let her eat too much. He was afraid that she would overeat after a day and night of hunger.
The hospital had also prescribed some blood-replenishing pills for Xiao Ling, and Jing Zhi had given them to her. Seeing that she was in a much better condition, Jing Zhi helped her with the discharge procedures at noon and drove her home.
He had never liked hospitals. If it wasnt for the fact that Xiao Ling had fainted and her face was frighteningly pale, as if she was about to die, he wouldnt havee!
Where do you live? Ill send you back!
Xiao Mos eyes were flustered as he hurriedly said,No, no, no, no, theres no need. I can go back by myself!
Dont be long-winded! Tell me the address!
Theres really no need. My home ... Is quite far away. I cant trouble you. Im already very grateful that youre willing to help me!
Youre so weak right now. If you go back alone, no one will know if you die on the road!
Xiao mo bit her lip and still refused to let Jing Zhi send her. She said in a low voice,Drop me off at a bus stop, and Ill take the bus home. But, can you lend me two Yuan? I ... I dont have any money ...
Jing Zhi used to think that Zheng yuluo was very good at angering people. Every time he saw her, he would always be angered by her.
But now, he knew that there was someone even more infuriating than Zheng yuluo!
Even if he was a dead man, he would probably be angered to life by Xiao Ling!
How could he have been so blind to have fallen for this little girl?
One Zheng yuluo was not enough, and he had found someone who was even better at torturing people than her!
With the two of them together, they would torture him until he went crazy!
She wouldnt let him send Zheng yuluo off no matter what, and now she wouldnt let him send Xiao Ling off either. Was he so shameful? So much so that both of them didnt want him to appear in front of their house?
He didnt believe it. He had to deliver it today!
Jing Zhi used all kinds of threats to force my to give him her address.
He drove Xiao Ling home, but he did not notice that Zheng yuluo was staring at them in a taxi outside the window.
Chapter 1135
Chapter 1135: Send him home
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo had finished her sses in the morning and no more in the afternoon. Zheng Jing had gone to work, so she took a taxi home.
She didnt expect to run into Jing Zhi on the road, nor did she expect to see an innocent and delicate girl sitting in the front passenger seat.
Although they had only met for a short time, Zheng yuluo could still see the girls face clearly.
Her skin was fair, and she looked a little sickly and gentle. Her long hair fell over her shoulders, and she was slender and beautiful. She looked very lovable.
Zheng yuluo felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. So, Jing Zhi didnt send her to school this morning because of this girl?
She smiled bitterly, feeling that she had brought this upon herself.
She had refused Jing Zhis offer to send her to school, so it was only natural for him to drive someone else.
However, he was so determinedst night that he didnt even give her a chance to refute him. Why did he change his mind this morning?
Zheng yuluo was d that Jing Zhi didnt show up, thinking that he might have overslept and missed the time.
But now, she felt an indescribable sense of loss.
Zheng yuluo took out her phone and wanted to call Jing Zhi to ask why he didnte to see her off. However, when she dialed the number, she got a mechanical female voice,Im sorry, the number you have dialed is not avable.
Jing Zhi didnt know that he had just passed by Zheng yuluo, but my saw that Zheng yuluo had been staring at him.
However, she was sick and weak at the moment, and she was trying her best to persuade Jing Zhi not to go to her house, so she didnt pay much attention to Zheng yuluos gaze.
My house is very old and dpidated. Its almost uninhabitable. Youd better not go. Ill feel even more guilty if I hurt you.
Xiao Ling wasnt lying. Her house was indeed a dpidated building and it was very far from the city. Jing Zhi wouldnt even have a ce to stand if he went.
His luxurious sports car, his expensive suit and leather shoes should not have appeared in that kind of ce.
Besides, if you go, theres nothing in my house that can serve you, she said softly with her head lowered.
Xiao Ling felt very embarrassed. She wanted to invite Jing Zhi to her house, but she didnt dare to. She couldnt see anyone at home, and there were other reasons that she didnt want to bring up.
If Jing Zhi drove her home in such a good car, the vigers would think that she was a kept woman.
This was something her parents would never allow. She would be beaten to death by them!
Jing Zhi didnt think too much about it. He just wanted to take Xiao Ling home and see why none of them wanted him to.
Therefore, hepletely ignored Xiao Mos words.
When did he say that he wanted Xiao Lings house to entertain him?
Seeing that he didnt say anything, Xiao mo thought that he had convinced him and continued,The people in my family are a little barbaric and hate the rich. Youre driving such a good car, youll definitely be surrounded by them. If they Rob or smash your car, I wont have the money to pay you.
She didnt tell Jing Zhi where she lived, so he wouldnt be able to take her home.
Jing Zhi didnt know where my lived, but it only took him a few minutes to get her address from the bar.
The bar had ced Xiao Ling next to Jing Zhi on purpose to threaten Jing Zhi with Xiao Ling. No matter what information he wanted, the people at the bar would cooperate. It would be best if he could take pity on Xiao Lings poor life andpensate him generously.
When Jing Ling realized that Jing Zhi was driving the same way as her, she finally panicked.
How do you know how to get to my house?
I have a navigation system, Jing Zhi said indifferently!
No, no, no. I mean, how did you know my address?
Oh, the people at the bar told me everything about your house in order to make me pity you more. They even gave me your home address.
Xiao mo was stunned, and then his expression dimmed.You already know about it!
Since your family is in such a state, you might as well run away from home! Youre an underaged girl, and theyre allzy and rely on you to support them. Are you sick in the head?
No... No, my parents ... Are fine! Theyre notzy, theyre not capable. They also work, but they dont earn much money.
You call that good?
Jing Zhi threw his phone to my and sneered.Look, did the people at the bar lie to me?
Xiao Ling took the phone and looked at it. There was a detailed description of her familys situation. There was no fake or exaggeration.
Because there was no need to exaggerate, their family was already unbelievably poor.
Your parents are only 50 years old. Theyre both healthy. Why do they stay at home and let a young girl like you go out to work to earn money? Do they spend your money in peace? And that younger brother and sister of yours, they actually need you to support them! If you cant raise a child, then whats the point of having one!
Im the older sister, Xiao mo said in a low voice.Its my duty to take care of my younger siblings. I cant ... Let them starve to death.
Yes, they cant starve to death, and then you starve yourself to death! If I had known earlier, I wouldnt have saved you. I would have let you starve to death in the hospital!
Xiao Lings full name was Xu Ke, and she was a little girl from a rural family.
City A was one of the most prosperous cities in the country. Even though it was a vige, it was not too bad. In recent years, everyones material living standard had improved. Some farmers went home to work during the busy farming season and went to the city to work when they were free. They were diligent and did their job well to earn money. Although they were not very rich, they were definitely not too poor.
It was rare to see someone like Xiao Ling, whose family was so poor that they couldnt even afford to eat!
This had little to do with the children at home. The main reason was the parents.
The couple gave birth to children one after another, and they werezy and didnt like to work. They especially cared about their face, pretending that their family was rich and unwilling to work for others.
How much money could they have to raise a child by only nting a few fields at home?
Xiao Ling was the eldest in the family. After she dropped out of school, she went out to work to earn some money. Ever since she gave it to her family for the first time, her parents had be vampires. They didnt even farm anymore and spent all day ying cards and gambling with the neighbors. When they ran out of money, they would ask Xiao Ling for it.
If Xiao Ling said she didnt have it, she definitely wouldnt be able to escape a beating.
Jing Zhi had been cursing at Xiao mo all the way. When he arrived at Xiao Mos house and saw the dpidated tile-roofed houses, he was furious.
Their house was already in such a state, and Xiao Lings parents still had the nerve to go around the vige and say that they were rich?
How thick-skinned must he be?
No wonder the bar was able to turn Xiao Lings house upside down. What else was there to investigate?
Chapter 1136
Chapter 1136: Poor
Trantor: 549690339
A sports car that looked very luxurious and expensive came to the vige. Many vigers gathered around to watch.
But what shocked Jing Zhi was that these people didnt look at him with envy or jealousy. They looked at him with disdain and contempt.
It was as if him driving a good car was a shameful thing!
What kind of people were these!
But what shocked Jing Zhi even more was what happened next.
As soon as he got out of the car, someone threw rotten vegetable leaves at him, and someone even threw stones at him!
Many people were screaming and shouting,the Xu familys daughter is being kept by a rich man! Quicklye and see, his daughter is really shameless! He found a pretty boy! Lets attack together and beat him to death!
Jing Zhi couldnt avoid it in time. In just a moment, he was already in a mess. Even the car that Jing Rui had given him was beyond recognition.
He was extremely furious and quickly beat everyone around him at a terrifying speed.
When Xiao Lings parents came out of the house, all they saw were their neighbors lying on the ground outside.
Most of them were screaming in pain, but they couldnt get up.
Xiao mo was trembling in fear. She had no idea that Jing Zhi could be so powerful.
Was he still human?
How could a person be so fast?
Xiao Lings parents hade out with a stick when they heard that their daughter had been taken as a mistress, but they didnt dare to do anything when they saw Jing Zhis power.
But they didnt dare to touch Jing Zhi, and they didnt show any respect to their daughter.
Xiao Mos father, Xu Youde, immediately shouted at Xiao mo,Are you rebelling? Your mother and I worked so hard to raise you, but not only did you not earn money for the family, you even brought people back to beat up the neighbors and even became someones mistress! Youve disgraced our Xu family! Get lost and go home. Youre not allowed to go out again!
Xiao Lings face turned pale with fright,daddy, I didn t! Youve misunderstood. Hes my friend. I was sick, so he took me to the hospital and then sent me home. Hes a good man, and it was our vige that started it!
This was the first time Jing Zhi had ever heard someone call him a good person.
In fact, he didnt even think of himself as a good person.
He killed people like flies, but Xiao Ling didnt know about it.
Xiao Lings mothers name was Xu Qiu. Like Xu Youde, she was also from the Xu Family Vige. Although she was already 50 years old, she still had her charm. One could imagine that she must have been a beauty when she was young.
Xiao Lings elegant and refined appearance was probably inherited from Xu Qius genes.
However, the spell symbols on Xu Qius face were too heavy, making him look a little mean.
When she heard that her daughter was sick, her first reaction wasnt to care about her daughters health. Instead, she went up to her and pinched her arm, scolding,You money-losing thing! Can we afford to go to the hospital with our familys condition? That ce ate people without spitting out their bones. No matter how much money you had, it wouldnt be enough! Are you sick? You dont look like youre hurt at all. Who are you acting so delicate for?
Xiao mo was in pain from being pinched and cried,Mom, dont pinch me anymore. Im not sick, Im fine! I didnt spend any money, it was my friend who paid for me!
Xu Qiu released his grip when he heard that he did not have to pay.Get in! Ill settle this with youter!
my looked at Jing Zhi and said,Thank you for sending me back. You can go back first. I ... Im going home.
Jing Zhi was so angry that he didnt know what to say when he saw Xiao mo walk into the house that might copse at any time.
She simply didnt know what was good for her. He wanted her to get out of this situation, but she still walked home without a care!
Go home for what?
Was he waiting to be hung up and beaten by his parents?
Jing Zhi was already very angry that he was covered in rotten vegetables and his car was ruined for no reason. Now, he was so angry that he didnt care about my anymore.
Her life and death had nothing to do with him!
Jing Zhi wanted to get into the car and leave, but the Xu couple wouldnt let him.
You beat up these people, but you have to pay! Our Xu familys teacher doesnt care about this, it has nothing to do with us. Lets make this clear, we dont care about their injuries!
Jing Zhi kicked them away, got into his car, and drove off.
The Xu couple were only slightly injured, but Jing Zhi didnt do anything to them because he was concerned about Jing Ling. Otherwise, they would have been bedridden for half a year.
After Jing Zhi left, Jing was beaten up. But after that, the Xu couple thought about it and talked about it for the whole night. The next day, their attitude towards Jing changed.
Not only did he ask about her well-being, he even apologized to her.
Xiao Ling, I was just too angry yesterday. I was afraid that you would be deceived, so I took action. Dont me daddy, this is for your own good!
Thats right, Xiao Ling, youre the older sister, you have to be a role model for your younger brothers and sisters. Our family is counting on you! Do you have anything you want to eat? There are only two eggs left at home. How about I make you some scrambled eggs?
Xiao Ling was ttered. She had been thinking about how to exin what had happened between her and Jing Zhi. She didnt expect that her parents would treat her so well without even asking.
She was extremely touched and felt that she had let her parents down. Not only did she not earn any money, but she also owed a huge debt. Fortunately, she had not told her parents, otherwise they would have been scared to death.
Xiao mo looked at her brother and sisters eyes that lit up when they heard the word eggs and almost drooled. She felt sad and whispered,
Ill leave the eggs at home for my younger brothers and sisters. Theyre still young and need nutrition. When I grow up, Ill be fine with anything.
No, no, they dont need to eat. Arent you sick now? Ill save it for you!
my wanted to refuse, but Xu Qiu had already rushed off to make scrambled eggs.
Soon, the smell of eggs came from the kitchen, and the whole family couldnt help but swallow their saliva.
Xiao Lings siblings were 12 and 10 years old. They were still children and would rush over to snatch the scrambled eggs whenever they saw them.
Xu Qiu pulled the two of them to the side and only let my eat.
How could Xiao mo bear to eat it? he only took a small bite and gave it to his younger brother and sister.
There were only two eggs in total, and they were gone after a few bites. The two children looked at Xiao Ling eagerly. Although they were young, they knew that there was nothing to eat from their parents, but if they asked their sister, there would be delicious food.
Xiao Ling, youve seen our familys situation. Your brother and sister dont even have a bite to eat. Theyve grown into two bean sprouts and are so thin that theyre skin and bones. Your father and I are old and in poor health. We cant earn money anymore, so we still have to count on you!
Ahem! Xu Qiu coughed and said in a low voice,your friend seems to be quite rich. Do you think you can ask him for some money to spend?

Chapter 1137: Asking for betrothal gifts from my future son-inw
Trantor: 549690339
Xiao Ling panicked when she heard that,mom, how can you do that! Im not even close to him, why would he give our family money to spend? He has already helped me a lot, I cant ask him for money anymore! Dont worry, I wont let you go hungry.
Xu Qiu said unhappily,the money you earn is not even enough to fill the gaps between your teeth. This big family is relying on you. Wont they all have to starve? Are you trying to starve your brother and sister to death? I even specially made you scrambled eggs just now, why are you turning your back on me after youre done eating?
Xiao Ling only knew now that her mother was so good to her today and was even willing to make her scrambled eggs because she was using her!
Her originally warm heart instantly turned cold, and her entire body felt cold!
Moreover, she had only taken a small bite of the two eggs, and the rest had gone into her brother and sisters stomachs.
Didnt her parents always hate her for doing things that were embarrassing?
Even when she went out to work, they forbade her from looking for such disgraceful jobs. She had to go to those ces that seemed to give her face.
She didnt even go to high school, which goodpany would want her?
That was why she had always been sneaky when she went to work at the bar, and she had never dared to tell her family.
Mom, I can earn money. Ill definitely let you guys live a good life in the future. Dont even think about my friend, he wont give us money to spend, were not rted to him.
Xiao Ling didnt agree. She couldnt bring herself to ask Jing Zhi for money.
Besides, why should they spend the money Jing Zhi earned?
Jing Zhi was right about one thing. Her parents were healthy and energetic. They went out to y cards and gamble every day. When they started working, they wouldin about the pain.
At first, she believed that her parents were old and their health was not good, but now it seemed that their bodies were fine.
Xu Han, stop pretending! Youre already his mistress, do you think you can hide it from us? We dont want much, just a few hundred thousand a year will do. Weve taken care of you for so long, its not too much to ask him for some money, right?
Xiao Ling looked at her biological mother in disbelief. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she could not believe what she had just heard.
Mom, are you trying to sell me? Am I still your daughter?
Xu Youde frowned and reprimanded Xiao mo,How can you speak to your mother like that? Are we the kind of people who sell their daughters? Im just asking for some betrothal gifts from my future son-inw. Why did you make it sound so ugly?
Thats right, thats right!
Xu Qius eyes brightened. She felt that her husband was still the one who knew how to talk. It was indeed a little too unpleasant to say that she was a kept woman. It was all the neighbors fault for saying too much yesterday, and she was also affected.
If his daughter could marry a rich man, that would be the best!
Xiao Ling acted as if she didnt know her parents and didnt know what they were talking about.
Future son-inw?
Betrothal gift?
How could they have the nerve to say that!
She wasnt even qualified to be Jing Zhis nanny. Marry him? Thats daydreaming!
However, her parents clearly didnt think so.
Xu Qiu immediately said,dont stay at home. Hurry up and pack up. Well go to the city. Youre so pretty. If he didnt like you, why would he take you to the hospital and send you home? Go, ask him when hes going to marry you. I wont agree to our daughters marriage without a betrothal gift!
When Xu Qiu was young, she was a well-known beauty. Xu Youde was also quite good-looking. When he was young, he was also a handsome young man. The children of the couple were actually all very good-looking.
Many neighbors had praised Xiao Ling before, saying that she looked like a celebrity on TV and that she would definitely be able to hook up with a rich husband in the future.
Now that it had be a reality, Xu Qiu was so happy that his hands were shaking.
She hurriedly went to find clothes for Xiao Ling and forced her to change into the so-called new clothes, which were Yingyings school uniform that had been washed so much that it had turned white.
After that, Xiao Ling was forcefully pushed out of the house by her parents.
She looked at the door that had been mmed shut with a bang and then at herself standing outside. For a moment, she felt that she had been abandoned by the whole world.
Xu Qiu had given her two Yuan in her pocket. It was enough for her to take the bus to the city.
She left the house step by step in her school uniform and got on the only bus that passed by the vige.
This uniform was given to her by her school when she was in junior high.
Fortunately, the school uniform had been made very big. Even though she had grown taller in the past two years, she could still wear it.
In addition, she was originally pure and slender, and with her ponytail, she looked no different from an ordinary student.
Xiao Ling went to the city. She was hungry and thirsty and had nowhere to go, so she found Jing Zhis Vi again based on her memory.
She was lucky that Jing Zhi was home.
Jing Zhi couldnt hold back his anger when he saw that Xiao mo hade to see him.
He still didnt dare to tell his brother that his sports car had been smashed beyond recognition. It was a car that cost more than seven million Yuan. If he wanted to repair it, he would have to spend at least one million Yuan!
Jing Zhi felt that he was particrly unlucky. In the past, there was Zheng yuluo who kept causing trouble for him. Now that Zheng yuluo had stopped, there was this Xiao mo!
And it seemed like he couldnt get rid of Xiao Ling!
Get lost! This is not a charity organization. I dont care about adopting stray dogs!
His tone was impatient and his expression was cold. He looked extremely disgusted.
Xiao mo was shocked, and his eyes turned red. He lowered his head and walked out silently.
She knew that she shouldnt havee, but she didnt know anyone else in A city other than Jing Zhi.
If he wasnt willing to take her in, then she could only sleep on the streets tonight. Yingluo didnt even have money for her travel back home. Her parents didnt even prepare money for her to go home.
Jing Zhi didnt call Xia Ling after she left. He turned around and went back to the vi.
He was really not a kind person. If he had not smashed the bar and dragged Xiao Ling into this, he would not have cared about Xiao Ling yesterday. If she did not look like Zheng yuluo, he would not have sent Xiao Ling home.
There were so many pitiful people in the world. At least Xiao Ling had parents, so wouldnt those orphans be even more pitiful?
Shuyin was an orphan and had been tortured by a virus for several years. However, she overcame all the difficulties and obtained a new life with her own efforts.
This Xiao Lings brain was not clear, and he could not be bothered to care about her.
Jing Zhi drove my away. He saw his car parked in the yard and drove to the repair shop in pain.
The car was scratched in many ces, and there were many potholes. The ss was broken, and it would take at least half a month to repair itpletely.
Chapter 1138
Chapter 1138: How many have you been in a rtionship before?
Trantor: 549690339
It was very inconvenient to have a meeting without a car, and it was also very embarrassing. Jing Zhi felt that if he wanted to fight with the people at the bar, he had to have some hardware so that he could overpower the other party.
So, he went to a 4S shop and bought a new car, which cost him nearly six million Yuan.
After that, his card was empty.
Jing Zhi didnt know that he had so little money left. He thought he had a lot of money.
After all, when he was an assassin in the past, he had taken on many missions and received arge reward. No matter what, it should have been tens of millions.
In the end, he didnt know when he had spent all the money!
Jing Zhi pulled at his hair in frustration. A man could never win with a single cent. Without money, he wouldnt even be able to eat in the future.
Forget it, Ill just go to my brothers ce to freeload food in the future. I have to think of some ways to earn money.
The bar still wanted him to pay a few million Yuan. He definitely wouldnt give that much, but he probably had to pay a million Yuan. After all, he really smashed a lot of good wine.
Jing Zhi drove to the Zheng family but didnt see Zheng yuluo. Then, he went to the school and didnt see her. He was a little unhappy.
Why didnt Zheng yuluo look for him?
He hade to look for her now, but he couldnt find her!
He took out his phone and called Zheng yuluo. He called her several times, but no one picked up.
At the end of the call, the call went through and Jing Zhi heard a familiar voice.
Hello, Im luoluos father. She left her phone at home. Are you her ssmate?
It was Zheng Jing!
Jing Zhi hung up the phone in frustration.
He was getting more and more annoyed with Zheng Jing. This man always stood between him and Zheng yuluo, and in Zheng yuluos heart, he was far less than Zheng Jing.
This was normal. He had only been with Zheng yuluo for a few days.
Zheng Jing was Zheng yuluos father and he had taken care of her for so many years.
Jing Zhi suddenly felt a little discouraged. He started his car and was about to leave University of X when he saw a dazzling couple walking hand in hand on the shady road on the campus.
Eh, isnt that my brother and Shuyin?
She didnt expect her brother to pacify Shuyin so quickly!
And from the looks of it, their rtionship seemed to have taken a step further.
Jing Zhi was a little jealous. His brother and Shu Yin were a couple, but he drove around alone and didnt even see Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhi stopped the car by the side of the road and got out to greet the two.
Jing Rui held Shuyins hand and looked at her Jade-like face and her cherry-like red lips. He could not help but kiss her.
Just as their lips touched, an untimely voice rang in their ears.Aiya, brother, why are you here too! Did you change girlfriends again? Did you dump that Xiao Li fromst time?
Jing Rui was already annoyed when their kiss was interrupted, but when he heard what she said, his face turned so dark that he could kill someone.
Where did this Xiaolie from?
When did he ever change girlfriends?
He turned around and saw Jing Zhis innocent and surprised face. He wanted to kick him off the.
Shuyin was shy. She was already embarrassed to be so intimate with Jing Rui on campus, and she wanted to find a hole to hide in when Jing Zhi saw her.
When she heard Jing Zhi say Xiao Li, her anger quickly subsided. She looked at Jing Rui with a dangerous look and said,Whos Xiaoli? How many girlfriends have you had?
Jing Zhi seemed to have just recognized Shuyin. He tried to cover up,Ah? So it was the shade of a small tree! Aiya, did I say something just now? Haha, dont take it seriously. My brother loves you the most. What Xiao Li and Xiao Mei? theyre all just floating clouds! You see, he talked to you the longest!
Shu Yin continued to grit her teeth.Theres also Xiaomei?!
Dont listen to him!Jing Rui said coldly, his face dark.
Heforted Shuyin and turned to look at Jing Zhi. He sized him up with an unfriendly gaze and said,Are you itching for a beating? Not only did you destroy my car for a stranger, but you also emptied your own familys fortune. Now, you dare to cause trouble? are you eager for me to send you back to North America with a rocket?
How did you know everything?
Jing Zhi was shocked. It had only been half an hour since he had bought the car, and his brother had already found out about it.
And she even knew that he had destroyed his car!
Xiao Lings matter did not escape his eyes and ears. He was really too powerful!
Jing Zhis face darkened and he said pitifully,Brother, I wont dare to do it again. Dont send me away! North America isnt a ce for humans to stay. I dont like it! You cant abandon your little brother just because you have a woman. Im your biological little brother!
What kind of younger brother would cheat his older brother like this?
Jing Rui said coldly,I asked you to deal with the bar, but you havent done it yet. What have you been doing all day? You dont have any leads on the police, and youre nning to keep dragging it on? It seemed that he had been beaten too lightlyst time! In the future, when youre locked up in the police station again, youre not allowed to ask me for help!
Seeing his brothers ruthless and business-like tone, Jing Zhi rolled his eyes and decided not to beg him anymore. He turned to Shuyin instead.
Little Shenshu, I was just joking, you know that, right?
Shu Yin shook her head seriously.It doesnt seem like it. The more I exin, the more it doesnt seem like it!
Jing Zhi was on the verge of tears. He had wanted to dig a hole for his brother, but he had fallen into it himself.
Don t! I was just joking! Look at how loyal my brother is. Hes not like me. That Xiao Li and Xiao Mei are my women. They have nothing to do with my brother! Hurry up and tell him not to send me to America! Its boring for me to go to North America alone with all of you here!
Shuyin seemed to have a sudden realization.Oh, so shes your woman. Ill talk to Zheng yuluoter and ask her to stay away from you. Were schoolmates now, and we even go to ss together asionally. Ill help her find a new boyfriend in the future. Youre such a yboy, so you two should forget it!
Jing Zhi really wanted to hit himself with a brick. Why did he have toe and cause trouble?
This was great, he had shot himself in the foot!
He didnt dare to exin any further. The more he exined, the messier it would get. After a while, the result might not be the same!
Jing Zhi left in a hurry. He got into his car and left University of X.
At school, Jing Rui held Shuyins hand and said solemnly,Dont misunderstand, ah Chi was just joking. Youre my only girlfriend.
Shuyin blinked.Thats hard to say. What if what Jingzhi said is true? she asked. You seem to have a lot of experience in love. Tell me, how many have you been in love before? Leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist!

Chapter 1139: Are you sick?
Trantor: 549690339
While Jing Rui was exining the few that he had talked about, Jing Zhi drove straight to his brothers Vi and started to eat.
The chef had made a lot of delicious food. Jing Zhi didnt touch Shuyins favorite chicken wings, but he didnt miss anything else.
Today, he finally understood that it didnt matter if he offended his brother, but the important thing was that he couldnt offend Shuyin!
If he ate his brothers food, he would at most scold him as a foodie and only gain strength and not brains. But if he ate Shuyins chicken wings, he might wake up in North America the next day!
By the time Jing Zhi was full, the sky had already darkened.
In order to prevent his brother from seeing him when he got home and remembering what happened in the morning, Jing Zhi quickly drove back home.
Other than theck of a chef, everything in his house was very friendly and familiar. He liked it very much.
It was already dark when he got home, but it didnt affect Jing Zhis vision. The virus had strengthened his body and modified his genes, so he could see clearly in the dark.
Under the vis high courtyard wall, a thin figure was curled up. She hugged her legs tightly and lowered her head, like a kitten abandoned by the whole world, pitiful and lonely.
Hearing the sound of a sports car and seeing the lights, Xiao mo subconsciously looked up at the brand new car and the person in it.
Jing Zhi nced at her indifferently before he drove into the vi.
Xiao Mos eyes instantly dimmed, and then he lowered his head again and continued to shrink against the wall, motionless.
Jing Zhi went back to the vi. After discussing the bar and the police station with hiswyer through video chat, he took a shower and watched the international news for a while. Then he went to bed.
However, he couldnt fall asleep no matter how he tossed and turned.
The image of Xiao Ling curled up against the wall appeared in his mind from time to time, and then her pale face and pure eyes.
Jing Zhi got up in frustration, put on some clothes, and strode out of the vi.
At the edge of the vis high wall, the small figure was still there.
He walked over and kicked Xiao Ling.Are you sick? What are you doing outside my house in the middle of the night?
Xiao Ling did not respond to him, but she slowly fell to the ground where he had kicked her.
In the dark, her eyes were tightly shut, and her pale face was filled with pain.
Jing Zhi was surprised. He reached out to touch her forehead.
It was so hot!
He actually had a fever!
He actually fainted again!
Jing Zhi patted mys face hard and shouted,Xiao Ling, wake up! Xiao Ling!
Xiao mo heard someone calling her in her sleep. She opened her eyes in a daze and saw Jing Zhi. She wanted to smile at him, but she didnt even have the strength to do so. Her stomach hurt and she only wanted to cry.
Idiot, Jing Zhi called out to her in a low voice when he saw how weak she was. He picked her up and walked quickly into the vi, not minding the dirt on her.
As he carried Xiao Ling, he once again felt how light this little girl was!
When he had carried her to the hospital this morning, Jing Zhi had already felt that Xiao Ling was too light.
It seemed to be even lighter than before!
She was even thinner and weaker than Zheng yuluo. With such a body, and being exposed to the wind outside the vi for a whole day, and perhaps not eating anything for a whole day, it would be strange if she did not fall sick!
How could there be such parents in the world who werezy and ordered their daughter around every day? they didnt let her eat properly, but let her work to earn money!
This girl was too honest. With such parents, why didnt she leave the house and stay at home to be their ve?
Although Xiao Ling had no strength and her stomach was in pain, she was still conscious.
She had no idea when Jing Zhi had held her for the first time, but this time, she felt it clearly.
No one had hugged her like this before, and she felt very warm.
Her tears fell unconsciously. Why was it that a person she was not familiar with could treat her so well, but her parents did not care about her life at all?
She even suspected that she was her parents child!
It was a pity that she looked too much like her mother and somewhat simr to her father. No one would believe that she was not her biological daughter.
Jing Zhis anger towards Xia Ling dissipated when he saw her cry.
It wasnt easy for the little girl either. She had to support her unpresentable family alone. It was quite pitiful.
Moreover, she looked even more like Zheng yuluo when she cried. Even Jing Zhis movements were gentler.
He ced Xiao Ling on the sofa and rummaged through the house for a few fever medicine. He didnt care if the medicine had expired and just let her take it.
However, Xiao Lings fever went down a little after taking the medicine, but her stomach pain became more serious.
She had taken the fever medicine on an empty stomach, it would be strange if it didnt get worse!
Jing Zhi had never been sick before, nor had he taken care of a patient before. He was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat. He picked her up, put her in the car, and drove to family MUs Hospital.
After the doctor examined Xiao Ling, he said, Shes hungry. Didnt she say that she would eat well yesterday? If you dont eat, dont send her to the hospital. I cant save her no matter how capable I am!
Although the doctor was unhappy and felt that the youngdy was deliberately skipping meals to lose weight, he still did his job and prescribed medicine for her and arranged for her to be hospitalized.
Jing Zhi only heaved a sigh of relief when Xiao Lings condition stabilized.
However, after Xiao Ling was given a fever-reducing injection and a nutrition injection, he did not let Xiao Ling continue to stay in the hospital. Instead, he brought the medicine back to the vi.
He didnt like hospitals, and it wasnt that Xiao Ling had a big problem with her body. She justcked nutrition, and she would be fine with more supplements. Medicine couldnt solve the root of the problem.
Xiao Ling was much better when she left the hospital with Jing Zhi, but she still owed Jing Zhi a lot of money for his medical expenses. The burden on her shoulders had increased.
On the way home, Jing Zhi went to a convenience store and bought some snacks, eight-treasure porridge, and milk for my. When he handed them to my, she said in a panic,I dont want to!
What did you say? Jing Zhis eyes turned cold.
This ... This is too expensive. I ... I dont have the money to pay you back ...
Jing Zhi stuffed it into her arms and ordered,Take it!
This was actually the most ordinary food and did not cost much in total, but Xiao Ling actually thought it was too expensive!
What kind of life did she have in the past?!
Xiao Ling followed Jing Zhi home with a big pile of food in her arms. She sat in the luxurious vi and felt like she was dreaming.
She suddenly understood why so many girls would rather sell their bodies and souls to climb into a mans bed.
Chapter 1140
Chapter 1140: My girlfriend has misunderstood!
Trantor: 549690339
For a poor girl like her, if she did not study hard and dropped out of school to work at a young age, she would never be able to live in such a big house, even if she worked her whole life, unless ... She was a nanny for the owner of the house.
No one disliked a life of luxury. Xiao Ling looked at such a luxurious vi and had the urge to stay here.
However, she knew that this ce did not belong to her.
Unless her parents were right and she married Jing Zhi.
As soon as he thought of this, my was shocked!
No, no, no, she wasnt that kind of shameless girl!
She could earn money on her own!
Jing Zhi saw my sitting on the sofa in a daze, his expression changing constantly. He shook his head like a madman and said in confusion,Whats wrong with you? Has the stomachache turned into a psychopath?
Xiao mo was a little flustered. She was ashamed of her own thoughts and didnt dare to look up at Jing Zhi.
No... No, Im fine!
Jing Zhi knew that my wasnt telling the truth, but he couldnt read her mind, so he didnt know what she was thinking.
He did not care. It did not matter what Xiao Ling thought. What was important was that he did not want to continue like this!
This girl wasnt even his daughter, so why did he have to go through so much trouble to send her to the hospital to buy food?
After two days of torture, he was almost bing Xiao Lings nanny!
He had never served anyone like this before!
Jing Zhi was getting angrier and angrier at the thought of it. He didnt like Xiao mo anymore. He said coldly,
Thats good, as long as youre fine! Ill take you in for another night. If you dare to appear outside my vi again tomorrow, dont me me for breaking your neck!
Xiao mo had been touched by Jing Zhis care for him, but he shivered in fear when he saw Jing Zhis expression change so quickly.Alright, alright, alright. I know. I wonte back in the future!
She knew that it was unreasonable to trouble Jing Zhi.
But she really had nowhere to go. Jing Zhi was the only one who was willing to help her.
Jing Zhis face looked a little better after hearing Xiao Mos promise, but he still said coldly,Hurry up and eat something. You dont eat ande to my ce every day. Are you deliberately looking for trouble?!
Xiao mo was a little afraid of him and hurriedly took out the eight-treasure porridge to eat.
Jing Zhi went upstairs to rest after he saw that she had eaten.
my slept on the sofa for the whole night. The next morning, Jing Zhi went downstairs to chase her away.Alright, hurry up and get lost. Go back to your own home!
As he spoke, he threw two hundred Yuan to Xiao Ling for her travel expenses.
Xiao mo pinched the two red notes and whispered,You dont have to pay so much. Ill take the bus back. Two Yuan is enough.
Jing Zhi didnt like her nagging. He took the two hundred Yuan back and gave her two Yuan again.Can we go now?
Xiao Ling stood up with the two Yuan and slowly walked out of the vi.
She still remembered the first time she had met Jing Zhi. He had asked her to drink with him, but she had refused to.
And now?
She was chased out by him impatiently, but she didnt want to leave at all. She wanted to stay by his side!
Xu Ke, how did you be like this?
Wheres your sense of shame?
Wheres your pride?
Xiao mo walked out of the vi numbly and mechanically. A cold wind blew from outside, causing her to shiver, but her mind was still somewhat clear.
Then, she saw a taxi stop at the entrance of the vi, and an extremely beautiful girl got out of the car.
When the other party saw her, he was obviously stunned. He was about to walk toward the vi when he stopped.
Xiao Ling had always thought that she was pretty enough, and almost everyone who saw her would praise her for her beauty. Even Jing Zhi would drag her to drink with him the first time they met.
However, when she saw the girl in front of her, she finally knew what a real beauty was!
Her beauty was not the kind of beauty that was too eye-catching, but her facial features were exquisite, and her skin was white and wless, like the most beautiful suet Jade, making people want to touch her.
Her temperament was gentle and beautiful, and one could tell at a nce that she was a youngdy from a great family. Just standing there quietly was already a breathtaking scene.
my was standing there in a daze when a familiar voice with obvious surprise suddenly sounded behind her.Zheng yuluo, what are you doing here?
Zheng yuluo stood there, more than ten meters away from Jing Zhi. She didnt take a step forward.
She looked at Xiao mo and then at Jing Zhi. Her voice trembled as she said,It seems that I came at the wrong time. Ill take my leave first!
She had recognized the girl standing next to Jing Zhi. She was the one who had sat in his car the other day.
It was obvious that this girl had spent the night at Jing Zhis house.
Before the taxi left, Zheng yuluo opened the door again and got in.
The chauffeur drove off quickly, leaving Jing Zhi and Xiao Ling alone.
Jing Zhi didnt expect Zheng yuluo to leave just after he asked her a question!
He red at Xiao mo angrily and said,get lost! My girlfriend misunderstood youing out of my house! If she leaves me, Ill take your life!
Jing Zhi ignored my and went back to the vi to get his car keys. He then drove after the taxi.
Xiao Ling stood alone in front of the vis main door, the shock in her heart indescribable.
It turned out that the woman he had run into that day was Jing Zhis girlfriend.
It turned out that he had a girlfriend!
And she was so beautiful, and he seemed to care so much about her.
It was no wonder. He was so handsome and rich. There must be many girls who liked him!
Zheng yuluo didnt know that she had be Jing Zhis official girlfriend. The scene of Jing Zhi and another girl standing together was too ring for her.
She sat in the taxi and felt like crying, but she held it in and did not let her tears fall.
A brand-new sports car almost brushed past the taxi. Then, with an emergency brake, it stopped horizontally in front of the taxi.
The driver was shocked. Fortunately, he was an experienced driver and reacted quickly. He turned the steering wheel and stepped on the brakes. Otherwise, he would have definitely hit the car!
Zheng yuluo was also shocked. She sat in the back seat and was almost thrown out. Her shoulder was in pain from being hit by the back of the front passenger seat!
When she came back to her senses, she found that Jing Zhi had pulled the door out of the car and she had been dragged out of the car.
The driver was so scared of Jing Zhis strength that he peed himself.
This was the iron-armed ah Tongmu!
He watched Jing Zhi leave with Zheng yuluo without paying him the fare orpensating him for the loss of the car.
He didnt dare to go against Jing Zhi face to face, or he would end up like that door.

Jing Zhi stuffed Zheng yuluo into the front passenger seat of his car and drove back to the vi in a short while. Then, he carried Zheng yuluo into the living room.
He pressed her down on the sofa and said in a flustered and exasperated manner,Zheng yuluo, whats the matter with you? Why did you run so fast when you saw me? He didnt even ask and just turned around and left. Hes even more temperamental than me!
Who is she?
Zheng yuluo had wanted to ask this question for a long time. She had wanted to ask this the first time she saw Xiao Ling sitting in Jing Zhis car.
Her eyes were slightly red as she asked in a low voice,didnt you say that you were going to send me to school the other day? Why didnt you send me off? Why is she the one I see in your car?
Did you see me take her to the hospital that day? Jing Zhi asked, surprised.
It was obvious that they were leaving the hospital that day. Zheng yuluo said softly,It was noon when I saw you. You didnt look for me this morning. Did you spend the entire morning with her?
Jing Zhi thought about it carefully. He did spend the entire morning with Xiao Ling, but he only went to the Zheng family once.
However, Jing Zhi was not stupid. If he told Zheng yuluo that he had been with Xiao Ling the whole morning, it would only add fuel to the fire and make Zheng yuluo even angrier.
It was rare for him to use his petty cleverness on the right path, and he said righteously,Xiao Ling fainted early in the morning. I couldnt just watch her die, so I had to send her to the hospital. After I sent her to the hospital, I immediately drove to your house, but when I got there, you were nowhere to be seen!
Zheng yuluos heart skipped a beat. She looked up at Jing Zhis handsome face and asked hopefully,You really went to find me?
Nonsense! Ive been to your house and even your school to look for you! But you? You actually disappeared from the face of the earth!
Zheng yuluo felt that what Jing Zhi said was probably true. He was a very conceited person. He had never shown that he cared about her before, but now he didnt care about losing face at all. If he said that he was looking for her everywhere, then he was really looking for her.
The pain in Zheng yuluos heart dissipated a lot, but she was still a little doubtful.If youre really looking for me, you can give me a call! Ive been using my phone the whole time, but youve never called me.
Jing Zhi was immediately enraged,you still have the nerve to say that?! Why didnt I call you? Ive called you dozens of times, didnt you see that there were dozens of missed calls?
You called me? But I dont have a single missed call on my phone!
Zheng yuluo immediately took out her phone and showed Jing Zhi her call history.Look, there are no records!
Jing Zhi frowned. He took out his phone and showed Zheng yuluo his call record.Take a look for yourself. Theres a record on my phone, but not yours. This can only mean one thing, Wanwan. Someone deleted your call record!
Thats impossible!Zheng yuluo eximed.
Why not? I called you dozens of times, and the call went through, but it was the director of the Public Security Bureau who picked up!
Zheng yuluos eyes widened. How could he ...
Zheng yuluo suddenly remembered that she had left her phone at home yesterday. It was her mother who had sent her phone to school.
It was impossible for her mother to touch her phone. Only her father might suspect that Jing Zhi was the one who called her. He was afraid that she would have more to do with Jing Zhi, so he deleted the call records.
Jing Zhi had looked for her and called her, but she had no idea.
If they hadnt made things clear today, they might have continued to misunderstand each other in the future!
Zheng yuluo held her phone and said guiltily,Im sorry, I didnt know you were looking for me. I thought ...
What did you think?
Its nothing,
Do you think I dont want you anymore and want another woman?
Zheng yuluo was a little flustered and hurriedly said,No!
Jing Zhi stood next to her and looked down at her. He said seriously,I dont have any ns to have any other woman yet. You alone are already giving me a hard time. If you include that Xiao Ling, I wont have enough even if I have nine lives!
This was the first time Jing Zhi had said something like Ill be alone. Although it was a little subtle and a little helpless, Zheng yuluo understood.
She knew Jing Zhi all too well. She was lucky that he didnt use this incident to provoke her. He had made great progress by consoling her.
However, women were born unable to bear sharing the same man with other women. Zheng yuluo still had a strong sense of wariness towards Xiao Ling and felt ufortable.
She finally understood why Jing Zhi was so angry when he saw her sitting in Lou Ziyis car with a big bouquet of roses in his hand on the first day he came back.
The feeling of being betrayed was heartbreaking.
That girl ... Xiao Ling, right? Is she your friend? How about I meet her some other day? If she has any problems in the future, she can just look for me. Donte looking for you again!
Jing Zhi was a little smug. Zheng yuluo cared about him so much that she was so anxious to take over Xiao Ling. Was she afraid that something would happen between him and Xiao Ling?
He said disdainfully,whos friends with an idiot like Xiao Ling? her family is full of lunatics. Youre not allowed to bother with her. Otherwise, her family will pester you!
Eh? Why was his tone full of disdain?
Things were a little different from what Zheng yuluo had imagined!
She probed,did Xiao Ling stay at your cest night? Are you not on good terms?
Whats so good about that! She squatted outside my vi for the whole day yesterday and fainted from hunger. She even had a high fever. I felt that it would be unlucky to let her die Here, so I took her in!
Jing Zhi tried to make it as short as possible, because this matter couldnt stand any scrutiny.
For example, how did he know Xiao Ling and why he took care of Xiao Ling time and time again?
Was he supposed to tell Zheng yuluo that he had wanted to give up on her, so he went to the bar to get drunk and saw someone who had a simr temperament to her, so he wanted to F * ck her?
Zheng yuluo must not know about this!
Anyway, he was no longer interested in Xiao Ling. He only took a fancy to her because of her rare pure soul and clean face.
He clearly knew the difference between Xiao Ling and Zheng yuluo.
Their feelings for him were also as different as the sky and the earth.
He had only met Xiao Ling by chance, and he had already done his best to help and take care of her.
As for him and Zheng yuluo, it was already impossible to calcte who owed who and how much!
He had never thought of settling the score with Zheng yuluo. Why would he settle the score with his woman?

Chapter 1142: This is my girlfriend!
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi couldnt ept Zheng yuluo getting close to any other man, but he didnt care who Xiao Ling was in love with or who she was friends with.
Alright, lets not talk about Xiao Ling anymore! Ive already driven her out, you should stay away from her too. Its not like she doesnt have a home, why does she keep running to other peoples houses! If she looks for you, youre not allowed to take her in, do you hear me?
When Zheng yuluo heard Jing Zhis words, she was sure that there was nothing going on between Jing Zhi and my.
If he had really fallen for Xiao Ling, he would not have exined so much and would have just said that he did not like her anymore.
Oh, I know, she said softly.
Jing Zhis heart softened when he saw Zheng yuluos obedient and gentle look.
He sat down beside Zheng yuluo and leaned against the back of the sofa. He reached out a finger to curl her long hair and asked lightly,Are you done with your period?
Zheng yuluo didnt expect Jing Zhi to suddenly say this. She blushed and almost buried her head in her chest.
That ... I ... I have sses in the morning. I have to go to school!
What school? dont go to school. Its useless to go to school anyway. Just serve me well at home and Ill pay you your sry!
Jing Zhi used to despise my for not going to school, but now he despised Zheng yuluo for going to school because she wouldnt be able to apany him if she did.
Zheng yuluo had a good time in school these two days. She was starting to like her university life. She asked Jing Zhi on purpose,Now, a college graduate can earn at least three to five thousand a month. How much do you n to pay me?
One million! Jing Zhi said. Ill give you a million Yuan, and youll work for me for the rest of your life. If you perform well, Ill even give you a bonus at the end of the year!
She didnt know if he was talking about one million a month or one million a year.
Whatever, she was just teasing Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo wanted tough in her heart, but her face was calm.You want to buy me to work for you with just one million? Hmm ... I think Im worth at least 10 million, right? Arent you very rich? I think your sports car is new. You have the money to buy a car but not me?
Jing Zhi felt that discussing this issue with Zheng yuluo was an extremely wrong decision!
That was because his current savings were in the single digits!
He didnt even have 1000 Yuan, let alone 10 million!
The one million that he had blurted out just now was just a casual remark that he had made out of habit.
How could he have that much money!
However, how could he tell Zheng yuluo such an embarrassing thing?
He pretended to be extremely generous and said in a light tone,Its only ten million, no big deal! Ill buy it! You dont have to go to school today, just stay at home and serve me. I havent had breakfast yet, go and make me breakfast!
Zheng yuluo stood up from the sofa with a smile, carried her small bag, and knelt slightly to Jing Zhi.Master, Im really sorry. You havent paid a single cent yet, so I cant serve you today. When you pay the ten million, Ill make you breakfast. Its gettingte, Im going to school!
After she finished speaking, she even felt that it was fun, and her eyes curved into crescents as she smiled.
This was the first time in Jing Zhis life that he had no money. He had no money in his card and only had a few hundred Yuan left.
Ten million ...
This was undoubtedly an astronomical figure!
However, when he saw Zheng yuluos bright smile, there was no sadness on her face, only the simplest happiness. He felt that even if he gave Zheng yuluo ten million Yuan, it would be worth it!
Buying a Beautys smile with a thousand gold coins was indeed a romantic and sentimental thing.
He walked in front of Zheng yuluo, hooked her delicate and beautiful chin with his finger frivolously, and said sinisterly,Alright, wait for me. Ill buy you with ten million soon! Before I buy you, you better stay in University of X obediently and dont hook up with anyone, do you hear me?
Sure, Zheng yuluo said.Ill wait for you. You have toe to me quickly! I hope youve been charmed by some other Little Vixen!
Her voice was so tender that it could make ones bones go soft!
Jing Zhis body had a reaction when he heard her voice.
She was the real Little Vixen!
Jing Zhi gritted his teeth.Zheng yuluo, youve been corrupted recently. Youre getting more and more arrogant now that you know I cant do anything to you! Just you wait, Ill let you have a taste of my power in a few days! I want to hear you beg me in bed, beg me to let you go!
Zheng yuluo was still shy and couldnt stand Jing Zhis joke. She pped Jing Zhis hand away with a red face and walked out quickly.I really have to go, I still have ss in the morning!
She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, Jing Zhi might do something to her.
Jing Zhi grabbed Zheng yuluos arm and wrapped her little hand in his. He pulled her out of the room.
What are you doing? Zheng yuluo was shocked. I ... Its not convenient for me, you cant do anything!
Jing Zhi looked at her, amused. He extended a finger from his other hand and poked Zheng yuluos head hard.
Im sending you to school! Zheng yuluo, what are you thinking about all day! Youre already like this, how can I mess around! You want me to fight a bloody battle? Tsk, tsk, tsk, I didnt expect you to have such a strong taste!
Zheng yuluos face turned red immediately!
She had been overthinking. Jing Zhi didnt mean anything else.
How embarrassing!
Zheng yuluo was so embarrassed that she couldnt raise her head. Jing Zhi pulled her into the sports car without a word and sent her to school.
Jing Zhis car was thetest red Ferrari. It was bright in color and had a unique and fashionable design. When he parked it at the entrance of X, he was immediately surrounded by people.
Zheng yuluo received a lot of attention as soon as she got out of the car.
To make matters worse, Jing Zhi got out of the car and kissed her in front of everyone. He held her in his arms and announced to the crowd,All of you, look closely. This is my girlfriend. If that B * stard doesnt have eyes and dares to have any ideas about her, there is only one word: Get out of A city, youd rather die than Live! Did you hear that?
After he finished speaking, the surroundings were dead silent!
After a moment of silence, the crowd burst intoughter.
That was clearly eight words, alright? This person was driving such a good car, but he didnt know how to count!
The discussions were getting louder and louder. Not only did the crowd not decrease, but it also increased!
Zheng yuluo wished she could find a hole to hide in!
Was Jing Zhi out of his mind today?
He had actually announced that she was his girlfriend in front of so many people!
Jing Zhi didnt care about other peoples gazes. He parked his sports car outside the campus, then held Zheng yuluos hand and led her into the campus.
He definitely wouldnt be able to gather 10 million in a short time.
In order to prevent Zheng yuluo from being targeted by others, he would dere his sovereignty to everyone in advance!
He wanted everyone to know that she was his woman!

Chapter 1143: Anger
Trantor: 549690339
While Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo were attracting attention at University of X, Jing Rui received a call from the legal department of thergest car-rentalpany in A city.
Hello, Mr. Jing! Im tinum, the head of the legal department of haichuan car rentalpany. Im very sorry to disturb you, but theres a dispute between ourpanys car rental and yours. Is the red Porsche 911 with the license te number a11111 yours?
The other party had not sent an ordinary legal Commissioner, but the highest-ranking manager, the Minister of Legal Affairs. Perhaps they had found out his true identity from his name, so the other party was very polite.
Jing Rui had wanted to hang up the call, but the number was a11111. The car was not his red Porsche, but Jing Zhi s, because the sports car had been sent to the repairpany.
Jing Zhi didnt give his new car a new license te, because he thought it was too troublesome. He had removed the old cars license te and had someone attach it to his new car!
What is it?
Jing Rui asked coldly, but he already had a bad feeling.
Its like this. One of ourpanys taxi drivers was driving a female passenger. When he was driving her to the vicinity of the fengyue vimunity, the driver of your Porsche stopped our car, pulled down the door of our car, and forcefully dragged our passenger away. We cant get in touch with your driver. Please tell him toe to ourpany to discuss thepensation.
Moon Breeze Vi district was the district where Jing Zhis family lived.
Jing Rui finally understood that Jing Zhi was in trouble again.
The driver was no doubt Jing Zhi!
Who would have the strength to pull the car door down!
And because Jing Zhi did not leave any personal information in A city, the car-rentalpany could only find Jing Ruis information through the license te number, so they found him.
Jing Rui was annoyed by Jing Zhi. He said coldly,the driver will pay you back. Then he hung up the phone.
Jing Zhi drove straight to Jing Ruis Vi after sending Zheng yuluo to school. He had not had breakfast, so he came here for free.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he was pped on the back of his head!
Jing Zhi shouted,brother, why did you hit me? If you want to hit, dont hit the head. Im already stupider than you, and if you hit the head, youll be even stupider!
He ran out as fast as he could, and Jing Rui followed him.
Youre stupid?
Jing Rui sneered,I dont think anyone is smarter than you! If you use my license te to tear apart other peoples car, the car rentalpany will only be able to find me forpensation, not you!
Ah?
Jing Zhi was taken aback. He suddenly remembered that he had indeed stopped a taxi.
He quickly admitted his mistake,Aiya, I didnt mean it! Its fine, its fine, you dont have to pay for this, Ill pay for it myself! Brother, if you have something to say, say it properly. Dont hit me!
Jing Rui did not want to talk to him at all. The bar issue had not been resolved yet, and now there was a car-rentalpany. Zheng yuluo was not enough, and there was also Xiao Ling. He had caused a lot of trouble not long after he returned to the country.
Ill give you two days to solve all these problems, and Ill send you back to North America the day after tomorrow!
Jing Zhi pulled a long face.Brother, why are you sending me away again? cant you threaten me in a different way?
Sure.
Jing Zhi didnt expect his brother to be so easy to talk to. His eyes lit up.Change to what?
Send Zheng yuluo to North America instead!
Um ... Brother, Im hungry. Why dont we eat something first?
I dont have anything to eat here, you can go back to your own house to eat!
Jing Zhi was upset.Youre lying. I can smell the food. My house is cold. No one is cooking for me. Im still going to stay here in the future, I wont leave even if you chase me away!
Jing Rui was almost driven mad by his shamelessness, and he still had the nerve to say that his house was cold?
Xiao Ling had already stayed at Jing Zhis house for two nights. How could she be cold?
His ce was cold. Who else could it be other than the chef and servants?
Shuyin still didnt want toe back. If Jing Zhi hadnt said or done something wrong, why would Shuyin have left?
Heres the chef! Get out of here. Youre not allowed toe again without my permission! Especially not your Xiao Ling, Xiao Li, or Xiao Mei!
Jing Zhi mumbled,theres no Xiao Li or Xiao Mei. I was just jokingst time. Why do you still remember me? How stingy!
Jing Ruis expression turned cold. He looked at Jing Zhi as if he was going to kick him out.
Jing Zhi shivered and ran away with the chef.
Jing Rui gave the chef to Jing Zhi and told Han Feng to find him another one. He had a simple breakfast and drove out.
Shuyin was still staying in the hotel, but she had changed to arge suite.
Jing Rui received a call from Gao ya, who was in charge of protecting Shuyin.
Lucas went to find Shuyin again!
And the six people in charge of protecting Shuyin, including Gao ya, could not stop Lucas!
Jing Rui arrived at the hotel as fast as he could. Gao ya and his men were all lying in the corridor outside the suite.
Fortunately, the six of them were only infected with the virus and had no strength in their bodies. There were no other injuries.
Jing Rui only had a rough idea of the virus and knew that Gao ya and the other six were not in danger. He asked Han Feng to send them to the hospital and then brought Han Feng into the suite.
The moment he entered, he saw Lucas lying on Shuyins bed, and the sound of running water came from the bathroom. It was obviously Shuyin taking a bath!
Jing Ruis anger was ignited in an instant. He approached Lucas at a very fast speed and kicked him off the bed in front of his incredulous eyes.
Lucass entire body mmed into the wall with a loud bang. He groaned in pain and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, his body had been modified by thousands of viruses, and his ability to resist attacks was iparable to ordinary people. Otherwise, he might have lost his life in an instant!
Even so, Lucas was not having a good time.
His body felt as if it had fallen apart. There was no pain anywhere, especially the chest where Jing Rui had kicked. It hurt as if he had been pricked by a needle.
Even breathing was painful for him!
Lucas did not expect Jing Rui to be so fast!
Other than Jing Zhi, he had never seen any other human being reach this speed.
Jing Ruis body had broken through the limits of human beings!
He had a problem!
Lucas spat out arge mouthful of blood, his face turning even paler. He said with a ferocious expression,Jing Rui, I already know all your secrets!
Chapter 1144
Chapter 1144: The virus spreads
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui did not react to Lucass words, but Han Fengs face darkened.
Jing Ruis biggest secret was the virus in his blood. How did Lucas know about that?
If the people at the Virus Research Institute knew about this secret, they would definitely gather again and try to harm Jing Rui.
But with Jing Rui here, he did not need to deal with it.
All he needed to do was to wait for Jing Ruis order.
Jing Rui had already heard about it from Shuyin. He knew that Lucas might have guessed that something was wrong with his blood, so he did not react to his words.
He walked around the bed, to the other side, and stepped on Lucas, who was on the ground.
Lucas screamed in pain, but Jing Rui stepped on him even harder.
He stared coldly at Lucas, who was lying on the ground, and said in a cold tone,Its meaningless for a dead man to know any secrets! I let you escapest time, and you actually dare toe again! Since youvee to die, dont even think about going back!
Shuyin heard the scream in the bathroom and turned pale with fright. She immediately wiped her body, put on her clothes, and walked out of the bathroom.
Then, she saw Jing Rui stomping Lucas under his foot. Both of them looked angry and wanted to kill each other.
Han Feng was standing next to Jing Rui, ready to attack.
She was not surprised that Jing Rui and Han Feng were in her room, but she did not expect that Lucas would be there too!
Shuyin guessed that Lucas hade to get the virus that she had promised him, but Jing Rui had just happened to run into him.
Jing Rui and Lucas looked at Shu Yin at the same time. Before Jing Rui could speak, Lucas roared,Cheryl, Im your foster father. Is this how you treat me? Tell him to get lost! Im here to get my virus, and Ive already paid for it. If you want to go back on your word, Ill kill you!
Jing Rui stepped on Lucass face when he heard that he was going to kill Shuyin in front of him. Lucass pale face was deformed and he could not even speak aplete sentence.
Shuyinughed when she saw Jing Rui bullying Lucas.
She took a towel and slowly dried her wet hair. Then, she walked briskly to Lucas side, squatted down beside him, and said with a smile,Lucas, to think that you would have such a day! Seeing you in such a miserable state, I feel that even the sunlight today is exceptionally beautiful!
It was a cloudy day outside, with dark clouds covering arge area. There was no sunlight at all!
In the future, dont bring up foster father whenever you meet. Dont you know that I hate this word the most? When I hear these two words, my mood will be very bad. When my mood is bad, someone will be in trouble. You seem to like being abused!
Lucas whimpered, but he couldnt speak. His eyes were bloodshot, and his eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets. His face was extremely pale, and he looked rather terrifying.
Shuyin, on the other hand, was not afraid at all. She had been bullied by Lucas for so long and had almost never been able to fight back.
Other than the time she had injured him with a small grenade, she had never hurt Lucas again.
She could only barely protect herself and try her best to make Lucas fear her so that he would not dare to touch her. However, she had no way of stepping on Lucas.
Shuyin stood up and patted Jing Ruis chest happily. She said affectionately,My dear, youre awesome! Its rare to see Mr. Lucas in such a sorry state, Im afraid hes never been in such a sorry state in his life!
Jing Rui was not used to being called dear by Shuyin in front of others.
However, even though he was not used to it, he still felt very happy.
After all, this could be considered a qualitative leap!
Shuyin had always been shy. She had never used any nicknames before and had always called him by his name.
From the looks of it, Shuyins hatred for Lucas was extraordinarily deep!
Han Feng got goosebumps when he heard Shuyin calling Jing Rui so intimately.
But when he saw that Jing Rui seemed to be very happy, he suddenly felt that he was unnecessary.
But Lucas, the dangerous man, was still here. He could not go out, in case something happened to Jing Rui and Shuyin.
Jing Rui did not feel that the cold wind was unnecessary. He had gotten used to it and treated it as air.
He stepped on Lucas and stopped him from moving. He looked at Shuyins delicate little face and said,He was lying on your bed when I came in.
Shuyin was slightly stunned. She suddenly understood why Jing Rui was so angry.
She frowned.I didnt even know when he came. It seems that I have to change rooms. I dont want to sleep on the bed hes been on!
Jing Rui had already guessed that Shuyin did not know that Lucas had entered her room, or she would not have taken a shower.
When he first arrived, he was too angry, so he had overlooked this problem.
He couldnt tolerate any other man lying on Shuyins bed, even if Lucas was Shuyins foster father!
Lucass head was stepped on, but he could still move his hands.
He looked at Jing Rui viciously and took out a ball of virus from his clothes. Then he pped it on Jing Ruis calf.
The virus ball was made of super-thin, transparent silicone. Lucas crushed the silicone immediately and the virus rushed into Jing Ruis calf, spreading quickly.
Jing Ruis calf soon became numb, and his movements were severely affected. He could no longer control the strength of his foot, and Lucas took the opportunity to escape.
Everything happened too quickly, and Han Feng was standing far away from Jing Rui, so it was toote to save him.
He turned to grab Lucas, but was stopped by Jing Rui.Stop! Han Feng, dont go over!
Han Feng was used to carrying out Jing Ruis orders. At the most critical moment, his body and brain would follow Jing Ruis orders immediately.
So he stopped and stared at Lucas angrily, waiting for Jing Ruis next instruction. It seemed that he would fight Lucas to the death if Jing Rui gave the order.
Jing Rui heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Han Feng did not attack Lucas.
He didnt want Han Feng to take the risk.
Lucas must have a lot of viruses on him, and he was worried that the cold wind would also be infected by the virus.
He was his most loyal and capable man, and also his brother who had protected him for many years. Jing Rui did not want him to make unnecessary sacrifices.
Han Feng, retreat! Without my order, you are not allowed to get close to him!
Han Feng stepped back, his eyes red. He knew that Jing Rui was afraid that he would be infected.
At this critical moment, he did not act rashly.
In the eight years that he had been with Jing Rui, he had rarely disobeyed his orders.
Chapter 1145
Chapter 1145: An unknown virus
Trantor: 549690339
The more urgent the situation was, the calmer and more rational Han Feng was, and the more he would obey Jing Ruis orders.
He had never disobeyed an order because of his impulsiveness.
And it turned out that Jing Ruis orders had never been wrong.
He had absolute trust in Jing Rui.
At the same time, he knew that Jing Rui had absolute trust in Him.
They trusted each other and cooperated well, so they rarely made mistakes.
Han Feng wasnt someone who cherished his life, but he knew that he had to protect himself in this situation.
Otherwise, he would not be able to provide the best protection for Jing Rui when he was in danger.
He was Jing Ruis most solid support. All of Jing Ruis forces were in his hands. When there was an emergency, he was the only one who could mobilize The Secret Forces to help.
Han Feng stepped back and stood beside Jing Rui with Shu Yin, waiting for his orders.
Lucas did not take Han Feng seriously at all. He had the virus in his body and Han Feng was an ordinary person. His immunity was not on the same level as Jing Rui S. He could die at any moment!
If he didnt want to make a big deal out of it, Jing Ruis men would have all died.
He endured the pain in his body and stood still at the door. He said sinisterly,It took me six years to develop this virus, and its specifically targeted at the special virus in Jing Zhis body. I didnt expect you to have the same virus as Jing Zhi. Hahaha, Jing Rui, you are so lucky today to be the first person to test this virus!
Actually, Lucas was not sure which virus Jing Rui had. He was just trying to trick Jing Rui.
But Jing Ruis expression did not change at all, as if the virus had not entered his body.
On the contrary, Shuyins expression changed slightly when she heard this.
She squatted down and rolled up Jing Ruis pants to check his calf.
The virus had quickly invaded his body, but his legs didnt seem to have changed at all. It was impossible to judge the toxicity of the virus from its appearance.
She asked Jing Rui worriedly,how are you? Lets go to the hospital now! I have to draw your blood for a test to know what kind of virus it is!
Jing Rui felt that his entire left leg was numb, and the numbness was spreading.
However, he was still very calm. He said with a calm expression,Im fine. Lets deal with Lucas first!
There was definitely a price to pay for killing a virus expert like Lucas.
But no matter how much he had to pay, Jing Rui had to kill him, or he would be a great threat.
He was worried that one day, Shuyin would not be able to fight against Lucas and would be killed by him.
He cant live! I havent settled the score with him about him and Zishan taking you awayst time. Since he dares toe to our door, he must not be afraid of death!
However, Shuyin didnt agree. She said firmly,No, lets not care about him for now. Take care of your body first!
Shuyin felt that it was not worth it for Jing Rui to suffer for Lucas. She just wanted to get to the hospital as soon as possible and help Jing Rui get rid of the virus!
Shuyin was confident that she could deal with any other virus, but if this virus was really like what Lucas had said, and he had spent six years specifically to deal with that special virus, then Jing Rui would be in great danger.
That was because she wasnt confident that she could crack a new type of virus quickly.
Lucas listened to the twos argument and coldly said,Cheryl, wheres my virus? Cash on delivery, are you going back on your word today? If thats the case, then I dont mind teaching you the rules!
Shuyins gaze was murderous. She stared at Lucas and said coldly,I can give you the virus, but you have to tell me the solution to it! Otherwise, Ill let you have a taste of how powerful my virus is!
He asked for it! Im only here to make a deal, not to fight! Otherwise, it would not be as simple as his subordinates being powerless! If I dont teach him a lesson, hell think that Im afraid of him!
You deserve it! Who told you toe to my bed? this isnt a deal, youre just here to cause trouble!
Cut the crap and give me the virus, or you two wont be able to leave today. Youll both die Here! My virus spreads very quickly, and his life is in danger with every passing minute. If hes not treated in time, his body will turn stiff in an hour and all his organs will stop working!
Shuyin didnt dare to bet with Lucas. If he was telling the truth, Jing Rui would be in danger.
She quickly walked to the corner and lifted the carpet. She took out a small ss bottle hidden under it and threw it to Lucas.Quickly get lost!
Lucas caught the thumb-sized bottle and saw that it was filled with the blue liquid he had seen before. It looked unusually active, and small bubbles would appear from time to time. He was delighted, knowing that Shuyin had given him the real thing.
He snorted coldly, but he did not dare to pester her any further and immediately left.
This was A city, the territory of family Jing. He could do whatever he wanted, but he could not do anything to Jing Rui, otherwise he would not be able to escape.
Jing Rui watched as Lucas ran away, but he could not give chase because his legs were so stiff that he could only take a few steps.
Shu Yin saw him walking forward and immediately stopped him.Dont move! The virus will spread even faster if you move!
Boss, Im going to kill him! Han Feng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said.
If Lucas had hurt Shuyin today, the cold wind wouldnt have been so unbearable.
But it was Jing Rui who was in trouble, the person he had been protecting all this time. He felt that he had failed in his duty when Jing Ruis life was in great danger even though he was by his side.
No, we will kill him sooner orter. We cant go now! If you go alone, youll be at a disadvantage!
Shuyin was so anxious that her forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat.Alright, thats enough. Hanfeng, carry Jing Rui on your back. Were going to the hospital now!
In order to get to the hospital as soon as possible, Han Feng called Jing Ruis helicopter and the three of them went to the hospital. Shu Yin brought Jing Rui to her ownboratory in family MUs Hospital.
Theboratory was well-equipped with all sorts of equipment. Jing Rui had specially prepared this for her and Peter when they had just arrived in city Ast year.
Unexpectedly, he had used it to save Jing Ruis life today.
Shuyin wasnt good at anything else, but she was very familiar and professional with viruses.
But the person she was going to save was Jing Rui, so she was nervous.
She had always been confident in her professional skills, but she was only nervous when she was with Jing Rui.
She was afraid that she would lose Jing Rui if she could not cure the virus.

Jing Ruis body stiffened, but he smiled and held Shu Yins hand. He said calmly,
Yinyin, its okay. Just do it. You can do it. The virus that Lucas developed, with your abilities, you can definitely crack it. Dont worry, my body has been modified by the worlds most powerful virus. It wont be that easy for me to have problems.
Shuyin suppressed the nervousness and panic in her heart and nodded.Alright, I will definitely not let anything happen to you!
She quickly put on her gloves and mask and started to draw Jing Ruis blood.
The color of his blood was slightly darker, simr to Jing Zhi s. The moment he put it under the high-power microscope, he felt a sense of familiarity.
Because Shuyin had observed Jing Zhis blood countless times and analyzed the strange virus tens of thousands of times.
She was all too familiar with this virus!
It was only after seeing it with her own eyes that Shuyin believed that Jing Rui had the same virus as Jing Zhi.
The Research Institute had spent so much time and effort to solve the problem, but Jing Rui had solved it so easily!
However, Shuyin soon noticed that Jing Ruis virus was different. The concentration of the virus in his blood was very low, only one-twentieth of Jing Zhi s, and the activity was also lower.
There was also a virus that Shuyin had never seen before.
This was Lucass so-called special virus.
Under the high-power microscope, the two viruses were fighting each other, and the situation was not good.
Shuyin was immersed in the research of viruses, constantly experimenting with various drugs.
Ten milliliters of blood was quickly used up, but Shuyin still hadnt found an effective way to suppress the virus.
Lucas wasnt lying, the virus he developed was really targeted at that special virus!
Before this, Shuyin had never known that he had hidden such a trump card!
He had done an excellent job of keeping it a secret. No one in the Research Institute knew that his research on the special virus had reached an incredible level!
Shuyins hands were trembling slightly. She wanted to kill Lucas right now!
If he was allowed to live, he would be a great threat to Jing Rui and Jing Zhi.
But now wasnt the time to be distracted. Shuyin didnt know how much longer she would need to crack this virus. Lucas had spent six years developing it, and she couldnt crack it in a few minutes. She needed more time, a day, a week, a month, or even longer!
This not only required strength, but also a little luck!
Shuyin didnt dare to rest. The sweat on her forehead was dripping down. She didnt bother to wipe it off. She turned around and drew another 10 ml of blood from Jing Ruis body.Get me 1000 ml of type A blood. I need to transfuse it to Jing Rui.
Shuyin had only taken 20 ml of Jing Ruis blood, but she asked for 1000 ml.
Han Feng didnt ask anything. He turned around and went to get the blood without a word.
After Shuyin drew her blood, she continued to test it with various drugs.
When Han Feng brought the blood bag over, Shu Yin immediately started to draw arge amount of blood from Jing Rui.
It was actually very dangerous to draw a thousand milliliters of blood at once, but Shu Yin knew that Jing Ruis body was different from ordinary people, so she did not even frown when she drew it.
Jing Rui didnt have any reaction and let Shuyin draw his blood.
It had been a long time since he had lost so much blood at once!
Blood was drawn out of his body, and his face quickly turned pale.
Han Feng, on the other hand, could not sit still.Shuyin, dont you think youve smoked too much?
Hes fine. Ill give him a blood transfusion in a while!
Shuyins sweat didnt stop, and it kept dripping.
She wasnt feeling hot, she was just too nervous!
Jing Ruis heart was filled with warmth when he saw her eyes turning red.
He smiled at Shuyin and said,its a good thing my girlfriend is a specialist in viruses. Otherwise, Id be dead. Han Feng, did you see that? In the future, if you want to find a girlfriend, you need to find a virologist, so you dont have to be afraid of any virus!
Han Feng couldntugh at all. He pulled a long face and said in a muffled voice,If you didnt have a virologist as your girlfriend, you might not have been infected by the virus!
He was ming Shuyin for hurting Jing Rui, because Lucas was lured here by her.
Shuyin didnt have the time to care about the two of them. She couldnt hear anything now as she was focused on the virus.
No, it has nothing to do with her, Jing Rui said, still smiling. Even without her, I would still be infected. Didnt you hear Lucas say that this virus was specially developed to target ah Chi? Im brothers with ah Chi and we both have the same virus. Sooner orter, well be attacked by Lucas virus.
Han Feng thought about it and felt that Jing Rui did make sense.
Lucas had sided with Zishan, and Zishan and Jing Ruis conflict had be irreconcble. Zishans father, Andrew, was still in Jing Ruis hands, and he was living a life worse than death.
As long as Zishan was still alive, she would have to fight against Jing Rui, and Lucas would definitely help Zishan. His virus would be of great use then!
With such an analysis, it was fortunate that Shuyin was one of them. Otherwise, the situation would have been really bad.
Han Feng had already witnessed the power of the virus. It was a destructive weapon that was no less powerful than an atomic bomb!
Moreover, during World War II, there were countries that were crazy enough to use viruses as weapons, causing countless people to die to the viruses.
He nced at the busy Shu Yin and finally said,Well, you still found a good girlfriend.
At least Shuyin treated Jing Rui with sincerity, and she was a real talent.
If it were anyone else, they would have been helpless about Jing Ruis condition.
Shuyin, on the other hand, was able to experiment with all kinds of drugs in an orderly manner under immense pressure.
There were all kinds of potions in front of her. There were at least ten thousand kinds.
Some were in liquid form, some were in solid form, and some were in gas form. All of them werebeled with various codes and were dizzying to look at. However, Shu Yin could urately identify all the drugs.
Her huge and powerful memory was amazing!
Jing Rui smiled when he heard Han Fengplimenting Shuyin.Of course its good! Ive always had good taste, and the only person in the world who canpare to me is my dad! My mom is the prettiest in the world, Shuyin is second.
Han Feng couldnt help but Twitch his mouth.
Finally, there was someone better than Jing Rui. He had thought that his boss was going to say that he was the best in the world and that Shuyin was the most beautiful in the world!
It was rare for him to put Shangguan ning first when he was so deeply poisoned.
He wondered if Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning would be so angry that they would kill someone if they knew that their son had been infected with such a powerful virus.
Chapter 1147
Chapter 1147: The most powerful man
Trantor: 549690339
Han Feng had wanted to keep this a secret, but Shangguan ning didnt receive any phone calls from her son that day. Instead, she had been looking for him.
Even though Jing Rui had called her, she was still worried and asked Jing Yichen to find Jing Rui.
Although Jing Yichen didnt think that anything would happen to his son, but he had been so obedient to his wife that he immediately found out where his son was.
Ten minutester, Jing Yichen arrived at family MUs Hospital.
As soon as he entered Shuyinsboratory, he saw Jing Rui lying on the White bed, still transfusing blood. His face darkened immediately.
Whats going on?!
He was in a high position all year round, and his Majesty and aura made Han Feng and Shu Yins scalps numb.
This was the first time that Shuyin had met Jing Yichen. She felt that Jing Ruis description of Jing Yichen was not exaggerated at all. He had even described Jing Yichen in a way that was too reserved.
Time had barely left any traces on his face. He was extraordinarily handsome, clean, and neat. He was dressed in a well-ironed ck suit, which made him look cold and Noble.
If Jing Rui had not called Jing Yichen dad when he came in, she would have thought that he was Jing Ruis brother.
He looked very simr to Jing Rui, especially in the eyes.
But Jing Yichens eyes were more profound, sharp and wise, as if he could see through you with just one look.
He had the unique calmness and charm of a mature man. His every move was noble and could make women go crazy for him.
Shuyin had always thought that Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were both very cold, especially Jing Rui, who was a man of few words and few expressions. He did not care about anything around him.
But after seeing Jing Yichen today, she finally understood what it meant to be cold.
His coldness was emitted from his bones, causing people to shrink back and fear him!
What kind of man was this!
And what kind of woman could conquer such a man and make him pamper her so much?
This was a man that could only be looked up to. Even if women admired him, they would not dare to get close to him easily. He was too indifferent and had no one else in his eyes!
Shuyins blood almost froze when he nced at her indifferently. But Jing Yichen didnt pay much attention to her, as he was focused on Jing Rui.
Shuyin was so nervous that she couldnt speak. The cold wind wasnt any better. He was even more nervous than Shuyin.
Because he had failed to protect Jing Rui, which had put him in danger.
Young master has been infected with unknown virus. His entire body is stiff and he cant move! The virus developer was Lucas, and he specialized in dealing with the special virus in the young masters body. Shuyin was currently looking for a way to crack it, and it had already been two hours and twenty minutes since the young master was poisoned! I didnt protect you well, please punish me!
Han Feng would only call Jing Rui master when he was with Jing Yichen.
Although he was so nervous that his teeth were chattering, he still reported the matter clearly and took all the responsibility.
Jing Yichen shifted his eyes from Han Feng to Shuyin and asked in a cold tone, Youre Shuyin?
Shu Yin was suddenly called out and took a step back in shock.
Jing Rui looked at his fathers cold face and said unhappily,Dad, what are you doing? Its fine if you scared Hanfeng, but he was scared by you since he was young. Why did you scare Yinyin? If you scare her away, Ill have to go after her myself!
Jing Yichen was usually indifferent, but not as cold as he was today.
He wasnt in the mood to joke at all. All he had was anger!
He looked at his son coldly and said,shut up! Ive taught you for so many years, and this is how you protect yourself? Why didnt you say anything when such a big thing happened?
Jing Yichens face turned pale when he saw that his son could no longer move. His forehead was covered in sweat.
He was so distressed that he almost wanted to kill someone. How could he have the time to joke with his son?
If anything happened to his son, what was the point of killing everyone?
What he wanted was for his son to be safe and sound, otherwise he would not be able to exin to Shangguan ning.
Jing Rui knew that his father was worried about him. He smiled.Im fine. Im just looking for a research method. I was almost sessful, but you interrupted chimeys research. I guess itll take a lot of time to start all over again!
Jing Yichen didnt believe Jing Rui at all. He was his own son and he knew him well.
He had taught his son too well and taught him to be too independent. No matter what happened, he was used to carrying the burden on his own and neverined to his family.
Dont tell your mother about this yet! You cant tell your sister either!
Jing Rui smiled bitterly.Yes, I know, but I cant hide it from you. My mother is not stupid, and Xixi is not easy to fool.
Ill hide it for as long as possible! You dont have to say anything, Ill handle it! If I say youre fine, your mom will believe me.
Otherwise, Shangguan ning would be heartbroken to see Jing Rui in this state.
Jing Yichen sat down by the bed and took Jing Ruis wrist to check his pulse.
Shuyin didnt expect that the head of family Jing and the president of Jingsheng enterprise could take pulse.
Shuyin, dont just stand there. Continue with your experiment!
Shuyin was still in a daze when she heard Jing Yichen call her name. She shivered in fear and hurried away to test the medicine again.
She really couldnt stand Jing Yichens overbearing aura.
He didnt do anything, but he made people subconsciously want to submit to him!
If he wanted to brainwash others, it would be too easy!
Jing Yichen was actually speaking in a rather peaceful way. He could ignore others, but he would definitely respect his son.
Of course, he knew how different his son treated Shuyin. He didnt want to be so strict with Shuyin, but he was used to being indifferent. He treated everyone the same except for Shangguan ning.
It was just that everyone else was already used to his indifference. It was Shuyins first time seeing him today, so she was so afraid of him.
Jing Ruiy on the bed helplessly.
Shuyin wasnt a timid person. She had been through a lot, but she didnt expect that she would be so afraid of Jing Yichen.
If hed known earlier, he wouldve done more psychological preparation for Shuyin so that she could be prepared.
The situation now would not be good in the future!
He knew that Jing Yichen had been as gentle as he could to Shuyin, but judging from the look on her face, he knew that she was still afraid.
You should be gentler to your future daughter-inw! He red at his father.
Chapter 1148
Chapter 1148: This is my future daughter-inw
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Yichen looked at him coldly.Youd better keep yourself alive.
Yinyins so powerful, this virus wont be a problem for her, but you might scare her!
Jing Yichen was well aware of Shuyins capability. When Jing Rui decided to be with Shuyin, he had already done his research on her.
He supported his sons choice. He and Shangguan ning wouldnt object to any woman their son liked.
His rtionship was his own business. In the future, he would be living with Shuyin by himself. As long as he felt that it was good, that was all that mattered.
Family Jing didntck money or resources, so no matter what family the girl was from, it wouldnt affect family Jing.
It was even better if the girls family was not too powerful. Otherwise, the girl would easilypromise for the development of her family. In that case, the feelings between the two people would no longer be pure.
Shuyins current situation was the best situation. She did not have a strong desire for business, nor did she have a family business that needed help. She had no weakness except for Jing Rui!
Also, she was an expert in the study of the Pi virus and gics, which was very important to family Jing.
There were only two boys in the next generation of family Jing, Jing Rui and Jing Zhi, but both of them had the virus and it was a big problem whether they could have children.
The only people who had done deep research on this special virus were the people from the Virus Research Institute.
But Jing Yichen was not at ease when someone else was studying Jing Rui.
Now that he had Shuyin, everything could be easily solved.
Ive always been like this. Im not scaring her. Moreover, shes a talent who came from the Research Institute. If this affects her professional level, it can only mean that her skills are not up to standard!
Jing Yichens words were sharp and his attitude was cold. He didnt smile at his son at all. His hand was still on his sons wrist, checking his pulse.
Shuyin had also heard Jing Yichens judgment and she agreed with him.
For the first time in her life, she was grateful for the abnormal life in the Research Institute, because that kind of life forged her strong psychological quality and taught her professional knowledge that the outside world could not ess.
Even under the pressure of Jing Yichen, she was still able to do the experiments one after another.
And it was because of the pressure from Jing Yichen that she was more sensitive than usual and found a breakthrough point all of a sudden.
Jing Yichen didnt know that he had made Shuyin undergo a qualitative leap. He felt Jing Ruis pulse and frowned.
Your bodys functions are declining. At this rate, youll be in a vegetative state tomorrow!
Dad, can you say something nice? Im already like this now, cant youfort me?
Jing Rui would only act like a child in front of Jing Yichen. He was actually feeling very ufortable, stiff and breathless.
But Jing Yichen was used to protecting him. When he saw Jing Yichen, he felt that even if the sky copsed, his father would be there to hold it up. He felt so rxed.
It turned out that Jing Yichen was almost omnipotent, if not omnipotent.
Not only did he urately determine Jing Ruis physical condition, but he also stimted Shuyin to speed up the research.
Of course, he didnt dare to bet everything on Shu Yin alone.
Fifteen minutester, Mu Qing and Wensheng arrived at the hospital.
Mu Wensheng had saved Lus life countless times. He had a deep understanding of this special virus.
Mu Wensheng was already 102 years old, but he was still in good spirits and strong. Mu Qing tried to help him, but he pushed him away.
Move aside, this old man can walk on my own! If you were to support me from the side, others would think that Im old!
Mu Qing wanted to cry but had no tears.Even if you dont let me help you, you cant hide the fact that you are 102 years old! He said.
Mu Wensheng pped him on the back and said,So what if Im 102? Was it very old? Old Wangs wife next door was already 106 years old this year! Im four years younger than her!
Mu Qing felt a burning pain on his back. Grandpa mu was getting older, but he was still as strong as before!
Yes, yes, yes, youre even younger! He quickly said.
He wouldnt say that the old man had painfully given up many of his precious treasures in order to make everyone around him older than him. Not only did he treat people for free, but he also led a group of old men and women to practice longevity fitness exercises!
The grandfather and grandson went into theboratory and saw Jing Rui lying on the bed. Grandpa Shen patted him.Kid, why are you lying on the bed like a corpse! Jing Tianyuan was still talking about you yesterday. Are you going to be separated from him forever today?
Jing Rui and Jing Yichen were both speechless.
Mu Qings face was also dark. Grandpa mu was afraid that Jing Tianyuan woulde and fight himter.
He was the most precious heir of family Jing, and he was invited to save his life, not to take his life.
Mu Qing quickly said!Ruirui! Please dont take offense.! The old man is old and has already seen through life and death. Sometimes, he will speak nonsense, so dont take it to heart!
Mu Wensheng was unhappy,whos old? Whos talking nonsense? Look at him, hes stiff and will be a corpse tomorrow. Old man Jing will probably have to see his son off!
As he said that, his hands were not idle.
He pressed a few acupuncture points on Jing Ruis body and checked his pulse. He frowned.
This is the first time Ive seen such a situation! Mu Qing, draw a blood sample for testing! Hurry up!
When he needed to be serious, mu Wensheng would not be careless.
However, when he turned around, he saw a pretty little girl sitting in front of a bunch of utensils in theboratory, and she was using the most professional method to extract the blood virus. His eyes lit up.Where did this girle from?
Shuyin was nervously preparing the potion. She waspletely focused. Although she knew that someone wasing, she still didnt get up and automatically blocked out all sounds.
There was only the virus in her eyes.
Mu Qing was also staring at Shuyin curiously. With his experience, he could tell that Shuyin was making a potion.
However, he was shocked after a minute!
He had never seen anyone who could concoct potions with such high efficiency!
This required a deep understanding and research of drugs, viruses, and cells. It was impossible to achieve this without ten years of time!
How old was this girl?
This was impossible!
Jing Yichen felt a sense of pride when he saw them staring at Shuyin in shock and curiosity. But he said calmly,This is my future daughter-inw!
Chapter 1149
Chapter 1149: Son, you have a good eye!
Trantor: 549690339
Mu Wenshengs eyes brightened,this is my great-granddaughter inw! Hahaha, thats great, were a family!
Grandpa, both your grandson and great-grandson have the same family name. Mu Sen has not gotten a girlfriend yet! Mu Qing reminded Grandpa.
Mu Wensheng turned around and red at him,none of your business! Do you think I dont know your surname? However, I like this girl. Lets get ah Sen to snatch her! Anyway ... Little Ruirui might not be able to live for long!
Jing Rui would have jumped up in anger if he had not been frozen.
Old man, are you here to save me or to anger me to death? Dad, quickly send the old man away. If you don t, I wont have to wait until tomorrow. Ill die today! And even his girlfriend will be snatched away!
Jing Rui had made up his mind to beat mu Sen up when he recovered.
Poor mu Sen. He did not show up at all and had unknowingly offended Jing Rui.
Soon, mu Wensheng could not care less about mu Sen snatching Shuyin. He and Mu Qing were just like Shuyin, fully focused on the experiment.
Shuyin was only briefly shocked by the sudden appearance of two assistants. She was already very confident about the results of the experiment and needed help. These two strangers came at the right time!
Although mu Wensheng had a lot of knowledge and experience, he was old and his physical strength and energy had declined. Therefore, Mu Qing was the one who was in charge of helping Shuyin.
In the field of Virus Research, Mu Qing and mu Wensheng were far inferior to Shuyin. Many of her original views and ways of dposing viruses were refreshing for the two of them.
In just a short while, the two of them had already confirmed that Shuyin was definitely from the Virus Research Institute!
Other than that ce, there was no other ce that could nurture such a young genius in the field of Virology!
Mu Wensheng touched his white beard and moved closer to Shuyin.Little girl, how about I find you an apprentice?
Shuyin was originally busy, but when she heard this, she looked up nkly.Ah?
Your virus is almost cracked. Jing Rui will not die. Let me tell you about my apprentice first!
Shuyin didnt know what was going on, but she was still anxious to do her research. She said directly,Old grandpa, I dont ept disciples!
You little girl, dont reject me so quickly! Let me tell you, I have a great-grandson who is very handsome, very smart, and a very talented doctor. He also has a certain Foundation in Virus Research. How about letting him follow you?
Before Shuyin could say anything, Jing Rui, who was lying on the bed, said,Not good!
Im talking to the little girl, why are you interrupting?mu wen angrily blew his beard and red at him. Ill find her an apprentice to be her assistant, and she can order her around. She can even run errands for her and do chores. What a good thing!
Shuyin felt that there was something wrong with the old man. She carefully moved away from mu Wensheng and continued to make the potion.
My woman is not short of assistants, Jing Rui said rudely,your mu Sen should be a doctor! If he dares toe, Ill definitely give him a good beating. If hes disfigured, donte looking for me!
He could ignore other things, but he couldnt tolerate the fact that he had designs on Shuyin!
Mu Wensheng moved a stool to sit in front of Jing Rui and started to argue with him.
He had wanted to win over Jing Rui because of his seniority, but Jing Tianyuan arrived soon and was displeased when he heard that mu Wensheng was going to take his great-grandsons wife away.
Mu, dont you have any shame? Is your mu Sen unable to get a wife? Why are you taking what belongs to family Jing?
Who stole it? This was a fairpetition! Maybe the little girl has good taste and likes our ah Sen!
My ass! Our Ruirui is the most handsome man on earth. Your mu Sen is from Mars and he looks so abstract. How can he bepared to Ruirui?
Mu Qingughed bitterly when he saw the two old men, who were more than two hundred years old, arguing with each other. He could only pretend that he did not see them and continue to make the medicine for Shuyin.
Its fine, its fine. Lets continue. The two old men have been bickering their entire lives. Theyll feel ufortable if they dont bicker for a day. You dont have to pay attention to them.
Yes, sure.
Shu Yin agreed softly and started to work again.
Her attention was not on the two old men at all. She did not know any of them, nor did she know their names. She could only bury herself in her research.
To her, nothing was more important than Jing Ruis life.
Mu Qing was also worried that something might happen to Jing Rui, so he was extra serious.
Shuyin was very knowledgeable and her knowledge of medicine was already at the level of a master. Mu Qing even wanted to be Shuyins assistant and learn from her for a year or so.
The Virus Research Institute had always been researching all sorts of crazy viruses, causing the death of many people. Although it was criticized, it had already formed the mostplete Virus Research system in the world. It also had the most advanced technology and the most advanced concepts.
These were all the most precious treasures of mankind!
Shu Yin and Mu Qing had been busy for five hours before they finally managed to make the antidote for the virus.
However, when Shuyin took Jing Ruis blood again, she realized that the virus in his body had started to devour Lucas virus.
They had the upper hand in the battle!
Shuyin was overjoyed. She only realized now that Jing Rui could have survived even without the antidote that she had developed.
However, he would definitely suffer a lot more.
The two viruses were fighting in his body, damaging his normal cells.
She didnt dare to inject too much of the medicine into Jing Rui, for fear of any abnormal reactions.
Luckily, she was a professional and the medicine did not cause much of a problem. Jing Ruis body started to feel again and his breathing became smoother.
When Jing Ruis condition had stabilized, he was pushed out of theb by the cold wind and was transferred to a high-ss Ward.
Seeing that his son was finally fine, Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief. He was almost unable to withstand the pressure from Shangguan ning.
Jing Xi had eaten the little candy that she had invented and had diarrhea today. Shangguan ning had to stay at home to take care of Jing Xi, otherwise she would havee to the hospital a long time ago.
Jing Rui was out of danger, but Shuyin had been working hard for eight or nine hours. She was so tired that she could not speak.
Jing Yichen took a look at her and saw that her face was pale. He couldnt help but say,Shuyin, go and rest. Theres someone here to take care of Ruirui.
After half a day, he had already acknowledged Shuyin.
She was so busy helping Jing Rui that she didnt even have time to drink water, let alone eat.
He patted Jing Ruis shoulder as he watched Shuyin walk out of the ward and into the next room.Son, you have good taste!
Of course! Jing Rui smiled arrogantly.
Chapter 1150
Chapter 1150: Give me Jingsheng, what about you?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Yichen didnt think that there was anything wrong with his sons conceit, which was almost the same as his own.
Shuyins temperament, appearance, temperament and talent were all impable. She was also very sensible. Moreover, it was not the first day that Jing Rui had known her. They had known each other for a long time and were familiar with each other. This way, they could go further in the future.
In the future, when you have time, bring Shuyin home for a meal. Your mother will definitely be very happy.
Jing Ruiughed. His father was still the same. He would only be more concerned when it came to his mother.
If it were him, ording to his indifferent personality, he would definitely not invite Shuyin to his house for a meal again after seeing her this time.
He had invited Shuyin to his house as a guest just to make Shangguan ning happy.
To dote on his wife to this extent, he was truly one of a kind!
Ill definitely bring her to our house. However, she might have been frightened by you today. If she doesnt go, you can exin it to my mother yourself. Dont me me.
Jing Yichen got anxious,how did I scare her? You cant talk nonsense. If your mother finds out, shell be unhappy!
Shangguan ning had always been happy about her sons rtionship. She had been worried that Jing Rui would be too cold and would not fall in love. She had also been worried that he would be too cruel and that girls would not dare to like him.
If she knew that Shuyin refused to go to their house because she was afraid of him, she would probably kick up a fuss with him again.
Jing Rui couldnt stand his fathers overbearing attitude, so he smiled and said,Fine, fine, fine. I wont tell my mom. Ill find time to bring her home, but you cant scare her!
Jing Yichen felt that he had been wronged. He liked Shuyin and treated her as his future daughter-inw. He didnt even try to scare her.
Why did it be him scaring Shuyin when it came to his son?
Her son was too protective of Shuyin!
They were not even officially together yet. In the future, when they were together and married, he would probably have no status as a father!
It was said that he forgot his mother when he had a wife. His son had forgotten his father when he had a wife!
But Jing Yichen still felt sorry for his son when he saw that his son was still pale and weak.
Take care of yourself first. Leave Lucas to me. Hes been active in A city for a few days now, we cant let him continue being so arrogant.
If it had been someone else, even if the person was a top killer, Jing Rui would have handed the person over to his father without hesitation.
But Lucas couldn t!
This man was too dangerous. He had even fallen into his trap. He couldnt let Jing Yichen take the risk.
His virus was too vicious and too hard to resist. Unlike bullets, viruses required a lot of energy and time to make potions after they invaded the body.
Jing Rui would rather take the risk himself.
No need, Ill deal with this person myself. Dad, leave him to me!
Jing Yichen finally showed a faint smile on his face.My son has grown up!
He knew that he had to bear the responsibility, he knew that he had to leave the danger to himself, and he knew that he had to protect his father.
Jing Yichen walked to the window and looked at the lights outside. He was in high spirits, tall and strong, like a tall and luxuriant tree.
He turned his back to Jing Rui and said in a cello-like voice,Now that there is a sessor of family Jing, I can hand over Jingsheng enterprise to you without any worry. I will hold the general meeting of the shareholders of Jingsheng enterprise in ten days. Remember to attend it.
Isnt it too soon?Jing Rui was surprised.
He was supposed to take over Jingsheng next year. Before that, he could get to know each other better and get into a rtionship.
If he took over now, it meant that he would be the new president of Jingsheng enterprise soon. The entire business empire would be under his direct control. He would be very busy.
Jing Yichen turned around with his hands in the pockets of his suit pants. His face was calm and proud.No, my son is already capable of taking over Jingsheng!
What about you?
Me?
Jing Yichen smiled and his expression turned gentle. Ill apany your mom to pick fruits, go fishing, and go around the world. Shes been thinking about the ind where our family lives abroad. The wild fruits on the ind are already cooked, and the seafood is also at its best. Ill take her there to eat.
Thinking of his wifes beautiful face and slim figure, Jing Yichen didnt even want his son.
Just lie down. Remember to attend the shareholders meeting in ten days. Im going back to apany your mother!
As he spoke, he walked out without dy.
Jing Rui had beenmenting about his fathers love and gentleness for his mother, but he suddenly realized something when Jing Yichen was almost out of the door.
Dad, if you and mom go out to see the world, what about my sister?
Jing Yichen replied without turning his head,of course its your responsibility.! Dont tell me that Im going on a vacation with your mother and I have to bring a little witch along?
Jing Ruis scalp tingled and he immediately shouted,I dont want Jingsheng anymore! Im going to bring Shuyin back to North America!
Im sorry, son, youre toote! 50% of the shares of Jingsheng have been transferred to you. You and Shuyin should just stay in A city obediently from now on!
Seeing Jing Yichens tall figure disappear from his sight, Jing Rui suddenly felt that the days ahead were going to be very dark.
It was enough that he had to take over Jingsheng enterprise, but he had to take over Jing Xi as well. This was simply killing him!
The older the ginger, the spicier it was!
He had been tricked by Jing Yichen again.
Jing Rui suddenly wanted to follow his fathers example. He wanted to run for eight to ten years ande back to take over Jingsheng enterprise when he was thirty.
Unfortunately, he had been running for eight years. If he ran for another ten years, Jing Yichen would be able to find him even if he had to search the whole world.
Jing Rui was lying in bed, feeling a little upset. It was not a good thing to have a powerful father.
As soon as Han Feng came in from outside, he saw his bosss frowning face.
He found it funny. Jing Rui always looked mature and experienced, and people who didnt know him would think that he was in his thirties. He only acted like a child in front of Jing Yichen.
Now, he looked like a 20-year-old young man. He had expressions. Even when he was lying on the bed, he was still full of vitality and youth.
Boss, you should eat!
Han Feng ced a few takeaway boxes of food on the table in the ward. These were specially prepared by the chef for Jing Rui.
He opened the lunchboxes, took a bowl of rice and some vegetables, and was about to feed Jing Rui himself.
Jing Ruis face darkened when he saw the food that was about to reach his lips!
Move aside! Its not like my arm is disabled. Move the table over, Ill eat by myself!

Chapter 1151: Boss, do you not like me anymore?
Trantor: 549690339
Han Feng would not disobey Jing Ruis orders at critical moments, but he still had his own ideas when it was not critical, especially when they were in private.
For example, right now.
He insisted on feeding Jing Rui.
Boss, dont try to be brave. Your health is the most important thing right now. Just lie down and Ill feed you. No one is here, Im the only one who knows! Dont worry, I wont tell Shuyin. Shes asleep, so she wont know!
What kind of nonsense was this!
Why couldnt he let Shuyin know?
He couldnt let Shuyin know what he had to hide!
If Jing Rui had the strength to hit someone, he would have beaten Han Feng into a pigs head!
He was so angry that he almost cked out!
He would rather starve to death than let Han Feng feed him!
What kind of underling did he find? why did his IQ fluctuate so much?
He usually looked like a smart person, but had water entered his brain?
Get out! I dont need you here!
Don t, youre at your weakest right now. I asked the chef to make you Cordyceps sinensis Duck Soup and goji berries and red dates cake ...
Before Han Feng could finish, Jing Rui interrupted him with a dark face.Take it away, I dont want to drink it!
Was that Cordyceps sinensis Duck Soup for replenishing qi and blood?
Thats for strengthening the Yang and kidney!
This was going to kill him!
Wasnt that wolfberry and red date cake for women?
It was terrible to be uncultured!
In the future, when choosing subordinates, it seemed that he couldnt just pick those who were strong and could fight, but those who were smart and cultured!
If it really didnt work out, he should even send her for some cultural sses!
Boss, you cant hide your illness from the doctor. Previously, in order to test the virus in your blood, a lot of your blood was drawn out. You need to replenish your blood! Come, drink this bowl of soup first. The chef said that this soup will be very good for your body. It also added ...
Jing Ruis ears were buzzing.
In the future, when he chose his subordinates, he would add another rule: He was straightforward and silent!
I cant have any of these especially long-winded people!
On this point, Gao ya, who was in charge of protecting Shuyin, had done a pretty good job. He didnt talk much, didnt dawdle, was efficient, and most importantly, he was very obedient!
As Jing Rui was thinking, Gao ya pushed the door open and entered.
He was tall and thin, his skin was very fair, and his facial features were so beautiful that he looked a little like a girl. Fortunately, there was a heroic air about him, which weakened the gentleness of his facial features.
However, he loved to act pitiful, and his eyes were the most innocent.
Those who did not know him would be easily deceived by his first impression. They would never imagine that his seemingly thin body hid such a huge explosive force!
He only looked thin, but the muscles on his body were no less than the cold wind.
However, he was six years younger than Han Feng and was only twenty years old, the same age as Jing Rui.
Boss, Shuyins already eaten and asleep. I think I shoulde here to protect you?
Jing Rui frowned. Why was Gao ya so easily affected by the cold wind?
No need. Youre still protecting Shuyin!
Gao yas delicate face revealed a wronged expression,Boss, do you not like me anymore?
He originally had an innocent child-like appearance, looking a little innocent and ignorant of the world. When he pouted, he looked even more innocent!
Jing Rui was almost driven crazy by his two men.
What kind of curse had these two been under today?!
He forced himself to sit up on the bed. His face was so gloomy that it was about to rain.When did I ever like you? Go to Shuyins ce. If you continue to run around, Ill send you and Han Feng to Africa to mine!
Gao ya had only been with Jing Rui for four years, which was not as long as the time he had spent with Han Feng, so he did not dare to go against Jing Rui.
I ... Im just worried about you, he said in a low voice. You scared all of us today ...
Han Feng and Gao ya were on the same side, so he immediately agreed,Yes, boss, we cant live without you! So, you should quickly drink this bowl of soup. It wont taste good when it gets cold!
Jing Rui couldnt take it anymore. He threw a pillow at Han Feng.Disappear from my sight immediately. I dont want to see the two of you again! Get lost!
He didnt practice the cold wind martial arts for nothing. His hands were very agile and his reaction was superb. He actually dodged the pillow at such a close distance and didnt spill the soup in the bowl at all.
But he still ran away with Gao ya when he saw Jing Rui getting angry.
Jing Rui refused to drink such a good soup, but Han Feng thought it could be used to nourish Gao yas body, so he gave it to him.
Gao ya was extremely touched. He stared at Han Feng with a pair of bright eyes,Big brother Li, youre the best!
Han Feng patted his shoulder and said,that goes without saying. Were all Good Brothers! Youve also been infected today. Although it was quickly cured, you still need to rest!
Gao ya nodded, raised his head, and drank the bowl of Cordyceps sinensis Duck Soup.
And then ... And then Gao ya very quickly had a wonderful wet dream!
After he woke up, he felt as if he was full of energy, but the impulse in a certain aspect seemed to be a little stronger.
He sighed in his heart. Han Feng was really good to him. He actually cared about his life in that area!
But ...
Wasnt the soup for Jing Rui?
Could it be that boss ... Had a problem in that aspect?
Jing Rui had no idea that he had been tricked by Han Feng again. He was a very strong-headed man and did not want to be fed by anyone, unless the person was Shuyin.
Although he was weak, he could still support himself to eat something.
Moreover, he had been receiving fluid transfusions and was gradually recovering his strength. His senses had alsoe back.
His bodys ability to adapt to the virus was very strong, and his recovery rate was also very good. By the next morning, he could already walk freely.
He still didnt look happy when he saw Han Feng delivering breakfast early in the morning.
After he had a simple meal, he went to Shuyins ward. When he saw Gao ya and his men standing guard outside, he still didnt look happy.
He finally knew that Gao ya had been led astray by the cold wind!
He usually looked innocent and pure, but in reality, it was because his face was too deceptive!
The fresh and pure Gao ya might be a master of disguise who was even more evil and ck-bellied than Han Feng!
Jing Rui ignored the two men and entered Shuyins room. He closed the door immediately, leaving Gao ya and the cold wind outside.
He felt much better when he saw Shuyins pretty little face lying on the bed!
Shuyin was very alert when she slept. This was a habit she had developed over the years in the Research Institute.
Jing Rui walked to her and reached out his hand. She opened her eyes immediately before he could touch her face.
Chapter 1152
Chapter 1152: Sweet as honey
Trantor: 549690339
She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Jing Rui.
Why are you here? Are you feeling better?
Jing Rui sat down beside her and took her hand out of the nket. He held it in his hand and said softly,Im fine. I woke you up. Ill be gentler next time.
In fact, his footsteps and movements were already very light.
He just didnt expect Shuyin to be so sensitive and alert.
This wasnt the kind of alertness that an ordinary girl should have.
From her reaction, it was obvious that she had been sleeping with a high level of vignce all these years.
It was heartbreaking to see Shuyin like this.
Jing Rui suspected that even if Shucheng Shan was not dead, he would still want to kill him.
He actually sent Shuyin to that kind of ce! He even entrusted her to that pervert Lucas and made him Shuyins foster father!
Damn it!
The only thing he was d about was that Shuyin was smart and independent enough to protect herself well.
If it was a girl, she would have died without a corpse!
Luckily, Lucas only loved viruses and was a homosexual. He wasnt interested in women, or else Shuyin wouldnt have been able to survive until now.
Perhaps, Shu Chengshan dared to give Shuyin to Lucas because he knew that Lucas liked men and viruses, and would not do anything to Shuyin.
His personality was twisted, and Shu Chengshan was his good friend, so it was impossible for him not to notice.
Although Shu Chengshan regretted his actions and couldnt save Shuyin, he couldnt make up for his mistake.
Jing Rui gently tucked Shu Yins slightly messy hair behind her ear and said in a low voice,Thank you for your hard work yesterday, Yinyin. You saved me!
His actions were so gentle that when his fingertips touched Shuyins ears, her heart trembled slightly.
Thinking back to yesterday, Shuyin still felt fear and panic.
No one knew how much pressure she was under.
Jing Rui was lying there stiffly. She wanted to throw herself into his arms and cry, but she knew that she could not.
Here, no one knew Lucas better than she did, and no one knew the principles and cracking methods of the virus better than she did.
She needed to be calmer and more rational than anyone else!
She was the only one who could crack Lucas virus.
She held Jing Ruis hand tightly and said seriously,My ability is limited and I cant crack all viruses. So, you must be careful in the future. Promise me, okay?
The feeling of almost losing Jing Rui was heart-wrenching, helpless and painful. It was so painful that she did not want to go through it again.
She finally understood why many doctors who were highly skilled in medicine would easily fail when they operated on the people closest to them!
Sometimes, if you care too much about someone, you will lose your normal heart.
Jing Rui could feel Shuyins nervousness towards him, and his heart was filled with warmth.
He ced Shuyins hand on his face and said gently,Alright, I promise you. Ill be careful in the future.
Shu Yins hand touched Jing Ruis face and she couldnt help but caress his face.
She did not know if it was her imagination, but she felt that Jing Rui had lost weight in just one day and one night.
Her heart ached a little, and she said with some self-me,Its all my fault. If it wasnt for me, Lucas wouldnt have hurt you!
Jing Rui liked Shu Yins touch, which made him feel happy.
It has nothing to do with you. Ill run into Lucas sooner orter. Also ... He said that this is a virus that specifically targets ah Chi. Ive tested it on ah Chis behalf, so he wont be in as much danger as I am when he encounters it in the future.
In the past, Jing Rui had always protected Jing Zhi, but Shuyin did not feel much about it. She only thought that he was a responsible and good brother.
But now, she was not happy.
In her heart, no one couldpare to Jing Rui.
She cared about Jing Rui more and more, and did not want him to risk his life for others.
You should think of yourself as more important. You cant think of Jing Zhi as more important than your life. Are you going to spend the rest of your life with him?
Shuyins voice was muffled and her tone was sour, which made Jing Ruiugh.
Shuyin was actually jealous of Jing Zhi one day!
He couldnt help but lower his head and kiss Shuyins forehead.Silly, hes my brother, and youll be my wife in the future. This is different. If you dont like him, Ill throw him to North America!
Shuyins face turned red from his kiss. When she heard him say the word wife, even her heart started to beat faster.
And he was going to drive Jing Zhi to North America?
Shuyin smiled a little sweetly.
She had always known that Jing Rui and Jing Zhi had a good rtionship, and she had never thought of chasing Jing Zhi away.
Jing Zhis life at the Research Institute had been more miserable than hers.
She said those sour words because she felt bad for Jing Rui and was afraid that he would risk his life for Jing Zhi.
Jing Ruis breath was right beside her, and she could see herself in his eyes. Shuyin said softly,No, I think Jing Zhi likes A city too. Dont drive him away. Hes your only brother, so its better for you to stay in the same city. You can go see him if you miss him.
Miss Jing Zhi?
Jing Ruis face turned cold. He would not think of that troublemaker.
Jing Zhi was a prodigal second only to Jing Xi!
He smashed a bar, destroyed two sports cars, and pulled down the door of a taxi. With Xiao Ling in his left hand and Zheng yuluo in his right, he sent this to the hospital one moment and spent arge sum of medical expenses. Then, he sent the other to school. He even bought arge pile of roses and found a courier to deliver them non-stop!
He had just checked Jing Zhis credit card yesterday, and he was already in debt of more than 50000 Yuan.
As for the money in the savings card, there was not a single cent left!
Jing Rui got angry at the thought of it. He held Shuyins face and said in a low voice,I dont miss him, let him live and die on his own! I only miss you.
Shuyin didnt know if Jing Rui was just trying to make her happy or if he was really angry at Jing Zhi. She knew that Jing Zhi had been causing trouble for the past two days.
But no matter what the reason was, when Jing Rui said that he missed her, she still felt extremely happy.
Her face was held in his hands, and she felt that she was deeply loved.
She had never felt this way before, and her heart was beating so fast that it was almost beyond her limits.
Jing Rui lowered his head and moved closer to Shuyins lips. Shuyin thought that he was going to kiss her, so she closed her eyes.
But she waited for a long time, but he did not kiss her. She opened her eyes in confusion, only to see Jing Ruis teasing smile.
She bit him angrily, but Jing Rui just chuckled.Be good, dont bite me anymore. Youre so hungry for me to kiss you, Ill satisfy you in a while. However, before that, you can ask for a reward.
Chapter 1153
Chapter 1153: I need artificial respiration!
Trantor: 549690339
Who was hungry and thirsty?
This word was too much, and Shuyin blushed.
She had only bit him once before letting him go. After hearing what he said, she flew into a rage out of humiliation and bit him again, and her bite was much heavier.
Jing Rui pinched her chin and said in a soft voice,Dont you know about the virus in my body? Why did he still dare to bite? Im willing to let you bite me, but you can only bite me after we find a way to restrain it. Otherwise, I wont be at ease.
He was so gentle that Shuyin couldnt bear to bite him again.
She let go of her teeth, but for some reason, licked his neck.
Jing Ruis body trembled. His eyes darkened and his voice became deeper.Yinyin, youre ying with fire!
Shuyins face turned red. She felt that she must have been bewitched by Jing Rui just now. Otherwise, she would not have done such a thing!
She pushed Jing Rui out of the room.I am going to get up. Dont stay here. Go back to your room.
She had just tempted him, and now she wanted him to leave?
How could it be so easy!
He easily restrained Shuyins hand and pressed down on her.I said just now, you can also ask for a reward.
Shuyin could only feel Jing Ruis breath on her face and it immediately upied the air around her. She could only smell the light and fresh scent of Jing Rui when she breathed.
He had always smelled good, and Shuyin was a little obsessed with his smell.
Their lips were only a centimeter apart. Shu Yins eyes were moving, and her breath was a little messy. She only had strong feelings for Jing Rui.
She and Jing Rui locked their fingers together, as if they were the only two people left in the world.
Then kiss me.
Shuyins voice was soft, and her gaze was disdainful. She was very different from her usual cold self.
Jing Rui lowered his head and kissed her gently. Then he looked up and touched her smooth face.This doesnt count. This isnt a reward for you. This is a reward for me.
Shuyins gaze was a little resentful. Why did they kiss so lightly today?
If she asked him to kiss her, he would really only kiss her once!
I dont want your reward! She pouted and said softly.
Jing Rui leaned on Shuyin and couldnt help butugh.
Yinyin, you look like youre not satisfied. Just you wait, when Im better, Ill do whatever you want.
Shuyin was shy, and she had only held hands and kissed Jing Rui. They had not done anything more than that. She felt her face burning when Jing Rui said that.
She pushed Jing Rui away, got up from the bed and hurried to the bathroom in the ward.Ill keep the reward for now. Ill ask you for it when Ive thought about it!
Jing Ruiy down where Shuyin had been and said with a smile,Alright, Ill keep it for you!
Theyout of the high-ss Ward in family MUs Hospital was ording to the standard of a five-star hotel.
The bed was big and soft. Lying on the bed, Jing Rui could feel Shuyins body temperature and smell her faint fragrance.
He suddenly didnt want to stay in the hospital anymore. He wanted to bring Shuyin home!
Hey there for a while before getting out of bed. He pushed open the door to the bathroom and walked in.
Shuyin was washing her face when she saw Jing Ruie in. She looked at him in confusion.What are you doing here?
Jing Rui hugged her from behind and said,Its nothing. Lying on the bed isnt asfortable as hugging you.
Although Shuyin liked his intimacy, but ...
I cant wash up if youre hugging me like this.
Jing Rui was unmoved. He still had his arms around Shu Yins waist and had no intention of letting her go.
Shuyin looked at the mirror and felt both helpless and sweet. She did not push Jing Rui away, but lowered her head and continued to wash her face and brush her teeth.
She knew very well that she and Jing Rui looked like an ordinary couple when they were in love.
They were so intimate that they would miss each other even if they were separated for a minute.
She did not know how long this feeling of love wouldst, but she just wanted to be as happy as Jing Rui.
After she finished washing up, there were glistening beads of water on her face. Just as she was about to take a towel to wipe her face, the towel was taken away by a big hand behind her.
Jing Rui let go of Shuyins waist and turned her around to face him. He wiped her face with a clean towel.
His movements were gentle, as if he was afraid that he would hurt her if he used too much force.
Her skin was as white and wless as white jade. Her eyshes were long and her eyes were clear and beautiful. If one looked at her for a long time, they would have a strange feeling that could Capture ones soul.
Jing Rui caressed Shu Yins delicate face with his fingers and said in a low voice,Yinyin, have I ever said that youre beautiful?
He had said it before.
Shuyin remembered it clearly, and she was secretly happy for a long time.
No! She said on purpose.
Jing Rui knew that she was doing it on purpose, but he still smiled at her. He looked into her beautiful eyes and said,Youre very beautiful!
Shuyin was very happy. She patted Jing Ruis chest with her soft hands and said,Hmm, this proves that you have good taste!
Jing Ruiughed. Who would praise themselves like that?
He subconsciously wanted to carry Shuyin up horizontally, but he failed after trying once!
Instead, she had almost caused the two of them to fall in the bathroom!
Jing Ruis face darkened. He did not expect himself to be so weak that he could not even carry Shuyin.
Shuyin, on the other hand, giggled andughed so hard that she couldnt even straighten her back.
Little Ruirui, you have to listen to me from now on. Lucass virus made you so fragile. If you make me angry in the future, I can also turn you into a good boy!
Jing Rui did not like the words little Ruirui or little sweetheart.
The former was what he used to call her before he was three years old, and thetter sounded like a puppys name!
It was a terrible feeling to lose his strength. Jing Rui wanted to recover immediately so that Shuyin would not be able to be arrogant.
But soon, Jing Rui felt a series of benefits that came with weakness.
Im weak and have no strength. Feed me!
Shuyin really picked up the spoon to feed him. After feeding him, she even picked up a soft napkin to wipe the corners of his lips.
Jing Rui did not need to move. He justy on the bed and let Shuyin take care of him.
He had already had breakfast, but he still had to eat with Shuyin.
Yinyin, I cant breathe. I might need mouth-to-mouth resuscitation!
Shuyin smiled lightly and kissed him lightly on the lips. She asked,Is that enough?
Not enough!
Oh, then wait for me for a while.
Where are you going?
Ill get you an oxygen mask!Shuyin said, smiling.
Jing Rui grabbed her hand and said,My breathing is much smoother now, but my chest hurts. Help me massage it!
Chapter 1154
Chapter 1154: Blind confidence
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin sat back down and pressed her hands on Jing Ruis chest, not too hard or too light.
Her hands were very soft and the strength was just right. It was veryfortable, and she was exuding an elegant fragrance. She was beautiful. Jing Rui felt that it was the ultimate enjoyment to see her massage him.
It was worth it to be infected with the virus this time!
Otherwise, why would Shuyin be so good to him?
Shuyin did feel sorry for him. She knew that although most of the virus had been removed, it had also damaged Jing Ruis vitality. Some of it had remained in his body, and he needed to use his immune system to slowly kill the virus.
She already felt that it was a miracle that he could get out of bed to look for her this morning.
She had thought that Jing Rui would have to stay in bed for at least three to five days.
However, Jing Rui was insatiable. Shuyin pinched his chest hard.
A numbing sensation spread from the little red bean on his chest to his whole body. Jing Rui groaned and immediately pressed down on Shuyins hand.
Yinyin, do you think that Im too weak to punish you now? is that why youre challenging my patience?
His gaze was a little dangerous, and Shuyin really couldnt tell how much strength he had. She immediately smiled and said,Aiya, I made a mistake just now. Again!
Theres no need to do it all over again. Its notfortable living here, so Ive decided to go home and recuperate. As for you ... I cant take care of myself and I need someone to take care of my family. You cane to my ce and live with me!
You have servants and chefs at your ce. I dont think you need me, right?
I need you!
Jing Rui sat up and pulled Shuyin to his side. He pressed his body against hers and felt her beautiful figure. He said in a low voice,Be good, Yinyin. I really need you. Now that Im like this, are you still afraid that Ill eat you? If I want to eat you, at least wait until my body has recovered. Otherwise, you will doubt my ability!
Shuyin leaned into his arms, listening to his deep and sexy voice, feeling his warm breath, and his strong heartbeat. She couldnt help but feel a little dizzy.
Her resistance to him was getting weaker and weaker, especially when she was in his arms. She would always subconsciously obey his words. She seemed to havepletely turned into a young girl in the honeymoon period of her love life, and she only listened to her heart.
Yesterday, Shuyin didnt even have the chance to get close to Jing Rui, because there were too many people around him, including Jing Yichen. His aura was so strong that everyone had to stay away from him.
She was not thick-skinned enough to hug Jing Rui in front of Jing Yichen.
She could finally hug him today, and she was a little reluctant to leave.
Jing Rui could also feel Shuyins attachment to him. Although he did not hear Shuyins answer, he knew that Shuyin would not reject him today.
The two of them snuggled together affectionately. Suddenly, the door to the ward opened and Jing Zhi barged in.Big brother, how are you? Im here to save you ...
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the two of them hugging each other on the bed and swallowed the rest of his words.
Um ... That ... Did Ie at the wrong time?
Shuyin did not expect that someone woulde in. She was shocked and immediately got out of Jing Ruis arms, blushing. She sat on a chair at the side, a little embarrassed.
Jing Ruis arms felt empty and the soft feeling disappeared. He frowned.
What are you doing here? Werent you negotiating with the people in the bar today?
Im worried about you!
Jing Zhi didnt care if he had ruined his brothers n. He walked up to Jing Rui and looked him up and down. His eyes widened.Brother, where are you hurt? I heard from Han Feng that you were hospitalized. Who hit you? Tell me, Ill go kill him!
Jing Rui did not hide the fact that he was infected, but he did not tell Jing Zhi either.
He was afraid that Jing Zhi would lose his cool and go after Lucas when he saw him lying on the bed half-dead.
Just a second ago, Jing Rui had thought that Jing Zhi was an eyesore and had interrupted his time with Shuyin. But the next second, he felt warm because of his brothers concern.
Jing Zhi was so anxious and his forehead was covered in sweat. He must have rushed to the hospital as soon as he heard the news.
Its Lucas.
Jing Rui would not hide this from Jing Zhi. Although he was impulsive, he was able to protect himself. He was not a child and had the right to know everything. He had to know what danger they were facing.
He?
Jing Zhis expression was cold and he was instantly enraged.Why is that crazy person in A city? Back then, Shuyin and I were tortured by him a lot! Did he inject a virus into you? Im going to kill him!
As he spoke, he turned around to leave.
He would not hesitate to sacrifice himself if he could protect Jing Rui, even if he knew it was dangerous.
He hated it when someone touched his brother!
Come back! Jing Rui shouted. You dont even know the basic situation, are you going to die?
He cant beat me, but I can kill him, Jing Zhi said, suppressing his anger. Those viruses of his are useless Against Me!
He has developed a new type of virus that is specially designed to restrain you! Otherwise, why would I be lying in the hospital?
Impossible! The Research Institute has been researching for a long time, but theres no particrly effective one. They came up with a special strong anesthetic. Other drugs and viruses have no effect on me!
Jing Zhi didnt believe it. He was so confident about the virus in his body that he had be blind.
So was Jing Rui.
For so many years, the two brothers had taken risks time and time again with the help of the virus in their bodies, but they could escape unscathed every time.
Their physical fitness, immunity, and recovery ability were almost invincible. They had almost never fallen sick since they were young, and even bullets could not do anything to them. For a long time, the two of them had been disdainful of other viruses.
Lucas himself said that hes been researching for six years to fight against the virus in your body. However, the concentration of the virus is different between the two of us. It might be useful to me, but it might not be useful to you.
Jing Ruis voice was cold. He had asked Shuyin to extract a part of the virus from his blood and used it to test Jing Zhis blood.
They would soon find out if the virus was effective on Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi was still in a state of anger and disbelief. He thought that his brother was invincible. How could anyone hurt him?
Seeing Jing Zhis shock, Shu Yin thought for a moment and said,Actually, Ive also developed a relevant virus that can restrain you, but the effect might not be as strong as Lucas s.
Jing Rui and Jing Zhi turned to her at the same time and said in unison,You have one too?

I developed it by ident, Shuyin hurriedly exined.I didnt do it to target you!
Jing Rui did not think that Shuyin was deliberately targeting them. He was just shocked that there was more than one person who had developed a virus to fight against them.
Jing Zhi didnt trust Shuyin that much. He red at her and said,Back in the Research Institute, did you want to poison me to death?!
Shuyin was so angry that her heart ached. If she wanted to poison Jing Zhi, she would have done it a long time ago. Why would she have to secretly change the harmful drugs for him every day?
Yes, Ive long found you an eyesore. Ive always wanted to poison you! Its a pity that youre so lucky that the virus Ive developed cant poison you to death!
Shu Yin wasnt Zheng yuluo, who went along with Jing Zhi in everything. If Jing Zhi was mean, then she could be even more mean!
Jing Zhi was furious. He was about to argue with her when he turned around and saw his brother staring at him coldly. He shut his mouth and didnt say anything.
He felt that Shuyin was getting more and more out of control. If her brother pampered a woman so much, she would be spoiled!
If Shuyin became his sister-inw in the future, would he have a good life?
Jing Zhi suddenly felt a little dejected. He said,Forget it. A good man doesnt fight with a woman. Ill let you have your way for my brothers sake. You cant go too far!
Shuyins breath was stuck in her chest. Why did it seem like she had done something wrong?
She red at Jing Zhi and said,I have no grudges with you. Why would I poison you? When I was in the Research Institute, who did I poison to death? Didnt I use white mice for all my experiments? Have I ever used a human? Can you not just grow up without intelligence?
Shuyins tone was exactly the same as when Jing Rui lectured Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi couldnt help butugh,youve really learned from my brother. He scolded me the same way. Ive realized that youre bing more and more like my brother!
In fact, he knew very well that Shuyin was kind-hearted by nature, which was rare in the Research Institute.
People like her who insisted on not using human bodies for experiments were rare in the Research Institute.
This had something to do with her experience from a young age. She was used as a test subject to cultivate the virus, so she was unwilling to use other children for experiments.
The atmosphere became more rxed, and Shuyin stopped arguing with Jing Zhi. She exined to the two brothers seriously,Actually, many people in the Research Institute have studied viruses simr to Lucas . I was able to crack them in such a short time because Ivee into contact with simr ones before.
However, the research of this type of virus is harmful to others without benefiting oneself, and the investment is huge. Most of the research on viruses in the Research Institute actually has to be beneficial, such as anti-aging, enhancing resistance, or prolonging life. No one knew that Jing Zhi was the only one who could handle this special virus, so they protected him and didnt want anything to happen to him. Thats why they didnt research any virus that could kill this special virus.
Lucass virus is a mutation of another virus. Even if I didnt develop the suppressant, the virus in your body could have devoured his virus, but the process would have been very slow and the body would have been in pain.
The brothers heaved a sigh of relief when they heard Shuyin say that the virus in their bodies could devour Lucas virus.
That is to say, Jing Rui said calmly,there is no virus that canpletely suppress our virus.
Shu Yin nodded,as far as I know, there isn t. Lucass virus was probably the most powerful one so far. Also, I think that the virus is effective on you, but not on Jing Zhi. The virus in your blood is very low, so your immune system is weaker.
Jing Zhi was immediately overjoyed,Oh, so that old bastard Lucas virus didnt work! However, I still have to kill him. It would be bad if he develops a more powerful virus in the future! Little Shenyu, quickly tell me, what weakness does that old thing have?
Shuyin couldnt help but smile bitterly.Im the most familiar with him. However, Ive never felt that he had any weaknesses. He was not human at all, and he did not treat others as humans. You might not know this, but he even got his parents into the Research Institute and tortured them for a long time as virus test subjects.
Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were both shocked, but they quickly epted the fact that Lucas could do anything.
Back then, Shu Chengshan trusted him so much and was his best friend. Every time he killed someone and earned money, he would give Lucas half of it. In the end, he still treated Shuyin as an experimental subject and didnt take care of her even though Shu Chengshan gave him money.
Lucas had even used himself as a test subject, so it was normal for him to use his parents as test subjects.
No weakness?
Jing Zhi frowned,Im a killer. It should be easy to kill him, right? The only one hes good at is gue, so I can just snipe him from a distance.
Dont take the risk. Lucas has people protecting him. Ive asked Han Feng to test him. The people protecting him are very good. They should be from a killer organization.
Jing Rui told Jing Zhi seriously. He had thought that Lucas was easy to deal with, but it turned out that he must have had enough means of self-protection to survive for so long and leave the Research Institute for such a long time.
Which killer can be better than me?
Jing Zhi wasnt convinced. He thought that killing was his Forte.
Brother, I want to try!
No! Lucas has first-ss experts around him, and they were given to him by Zishan. I will arrange to kill Lucas, and this has nothing to do with you, so you are not allowed to interfere!
Jing Zhi saw his brothers serious expression and lowered his head.Alright, Ill listen to you.
However, he had already made up his mind to kill Lucas!
Shuyin took Jing Zhis blood and took it to theb for a viral test. The test results showed that Jing Zhi really had a higher immunity to Lucas virus.
Jing Rui was finally relieved that the virus did not pose a threat to Jing Zhi.
The three of them left the hospital and Jing Rui brought Shuyin to his vi. Jing Zhi said with a smile,Im not going to be a third wheel for you guys. The people at the bar are still waiting for me topensate them. I have to go and teach them a good lesson!
Jing Rui didnt care about him. He could go anywhere he wanted. The bar incident was easy to deal with, but he didnt do anything on purpose, so that Jing Zhi could practice his skills on these people.
This way, he would be able to deal with the matters of the killer organization in the future.
Jing Zhis expression turned cold as the three of them separated.
He didnt even look for the person in charge of the bar. Instead, he went directly to the intelligence Agency of the assassin organization and asked for relevant information about Lucas and the general scope of his recent activities.
He was going to kill!
Chapter 1156
Chapter 1156: Ghost in the dark
Trantor: 549690339
The night was quiet, and everything was still.
The ce where Lucas lived was neither a high-end hotel nor a luxury vi, but an extremely ordinary old residential house.
This ce was about to be demolished, and most of the residents had moved away. Some houses had even copsed due to years of disrepair.
Those who didnt move away were either households that had been nailed down or too poor to move.
Lucas felt veryfortable living here.
He didnt like to enjoy luxurious things, and he even hated all beautiful things.
He liked dark and messy environments, because only such environments could give him a unique sense of security.
Moreover, he only liked to live in the basement, not in the upper floors. This way, he could avoid being killed by killers.
Lucas had captured many people for his experiments, including elderly and children, and even some pregnant women.
Such an action would undoubtedly attract many enemies. Many people would hunt him down all over the world. Of course, he had to live in the safest ce.
However, he had been feeling uneasy the entire night. He kept feeling as if a pair of cold eyes were staring at him!
This time, he was staying in a half-basement storage room. Half of the windows were exposed, but they were tightly shut and covered by Lucas with a rag.
The old houses were filled with yin energy and humidity, especially the basement where misceneous items were stored. Not only was the air not circting, but there were also many moldy potatoes, Taros, and other things, which gave off a foul smell.
Lucass sense of smell had been affected because he had personally tested the virus. He was not very sensitive to all kinds of smells, so the stench did not affect him.
The bodyguards who were responsible for protecting him were miserable. All of them had very good noses. In such an environment, almost none of them could stay!
Moreover, they had been protecting Lucas for a long time. Other than him provoking Jing Rui and Shuyin, no one else hade here to cause trouble.
The bodyguards couldnt help cking off. They were afraid of Lucas, but they also hated him.
If it wasnt for the fact that Lucass death would cost them a huge sum of money, they would have wanted to kill Lucas!
Jing Zhi waited patiently in the darkness.
In his daily life, he was very impulsive and definitely a person whocked patience. However, every time he did a mission, he would seem to change into a different person.
He was patient, meticulous, calm, and rational. He could wait for dozens of hours in a harsh environment without moving!
He was an exceptional assassin!
Unless they didnt shoot, shooting would definitely kill!
The darkness gave him the perfect cover, and the pungent rotten smell around him could also cover his scent.
He was like a dark ghost, hiding in a corner, silently waiting for his prey to appear.
Lucas had been killed countless times, and his life was saved from countless life and death struggles.
He couldnt see Jing Zhi, but he could feel that he was being watched.
There was only a fine line between a genius and a lunatic. Lucas was a lunatic, but to a certain extent, he was also a genius.
He had an instinctive sense of danger, and he believed in this mysterious sense.
He had been worried that Jing Rui would send someone to take revenge on him. His virus had invaded Jing Ruis body, and even if Shuyin could crack it, Jing Rui would suffer.
In A city, if someone wanted to kill him, it would be Jing Rui and Shuyin. He had not provoked anyone else yet.
Lucas wanted to call for his bodyguards toe in and protect him, but before he could say anything, the earth suddenly shook, followed by a loud bang, and the entire building he lived in copsed!
He subconsciously ran towards the half of the window that was exposed on the ground. As soon as the rag that was originally blocking the window was removed, a bullet cut through the dark night sky, tore through the thin air, and shattered the crumbling ss with a sharp and harsh sound.
Lucass eyes widened in horror as he watched in disbelief as the bullet plunged into his chest!
He screamed and fell to the ground. The bodyguards had already rushed over and protected him.
They wanted to shoot outside, but it was pitch-ck and they couldnt see anything. They couldnt imagine how the enemy could hit Lucas so urately in such a dark environment.
The air was filled with a cold, murderous aura. No one knew if the other party had left or who the next soul would be.
Everyone was cautiously half-squatting and sticking close to the wall to minimize exposure.
Help ... Quick ... Take me to the hospital ...
Lucas stuttered out a few words, and he spat outrge mouthfuls of blood.
He had been on the verge of death many times in his life, but none of them had ever made him feel as scared as he was now.
After being shot through the chest, he felt that his life was rapidly slipping away!
This wont do. If this goes on, Lucas will bepletely hopeless! There might still be time to send him to the hospital now! We cant just sit here and wait for death. Charge out!
As Lucass bodyguards, they had received a high sry. Even if there was danger, they had to save Lucas life first.
Some of the bodyguards began to move. Some of them were still guarding Lucas, while others had already started to walk out of the basement, trying to break through.
However, all their efforts were in vain.
Jing Zhi hid in the dark. The sniper rifle in his hand seemed to have a soul. It followed his will and tracked every target.
His expression was cold and his killing intent was strong. He was like the god of death who had descended to the world and was harvesting lives every second.
The sound of gunfire rang out in the dead-Silent Night, and the bodyguards fell one by one.
The door to the basement was kicked open, and Jing Zhis tall figure appeared in Lucass blurred vision.
You ...
Lucas only managed to say one word before Jing Zhi stepped on him.
With a crisp crack, Jing Zhi crushed Lucass sternum.
The hair-raising sound of bones breaking was particrly clear in the dead silence of the basement.
Lucas, youre still alive! Could it be that my spear technique has deteriorated?
Jing Zhi tore Lucas clothes apart and looked at the spot where he had shot him. He touched Lucas chest and said in surprise,Oh, so your heart is on the right! No wonder he didnt die!
Lucas was in so much pain that he could not say a word.
His heart was indeed on the right side, so he had dodged the fatal blow.
But even so, if he didnt go to the hospital to take out the bullet immediately, he would die from bleeding!
Chapter 1157
Chapter 1157: Trying to snatch Jing Ruis woman?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi dismembered Lucas arms and stripped him of all his clothes to prevent him from hiding the virus in his clothes. Then he tied Lucas hands and feet up and stuffed him into a tattered bag. He ignored the bodies on the ground and carried him away quickly.
He went to Jing Rui excitedly and pulled the naked Lucas out of the bag.Brother, look, Ive avenged you!
Lucas was still conscious and wanted to beg Jing Zhi for mercy, but Jing Zhi knocked him out without a second word.
He had a cautious side to him. Even Jing Rui had been defeated by Lucas, so he did not dare to be careless. So he knocked Lucas out.
Of course, even if he did not y, Lucas would not be able to hold on for long.
Although his body had been modified by the virus, he still didnt have a strong resistance to bullets. His healing ability was also rtively poor.
Jing Rui had been sleeping soundly in the middle of the night when Jing Zhi pulled him up. He followed Jing Zhi to the yard in his loose pajamas and was shocked to see Lucas.
Who asked you to kill him? Youre not listening to me anymore?
Jing Zhi knew that his brother was worried about him, so he didnt care.I didnt kill him, hes not dead yet! See if he can use it. If its really useless, Ill give him a quick death!
Jing Rui was still furious. Jing Zhi had tried to kill Lucas, but none of his bodyguards had noticed.
If he had known, he would have stopped Jing Zhi from taking the risk.
Ill send you back to North America if you mess around again!
Jing Zhi pursed his lips. It was the same trick again. His brother had said the same thing so many times. However, he had never been so heartless as to send him away!
He was leaning against a tree in a casual manner. His ck nightwear made him look tall and charming.
Big brother, Ive grown up. I wont be a burden to you in the future.
You have never been a burden to me, Jing Rui said, looking at him.
I want to be your strongest arm!
Youve always been.
Brother, youre not angry with me anymore? Jing Zhi smiled.
Jing Rui looked at Lucas, who was lying on the ground, and then at Jing Zhi, who was showing off like a child. He sighed. Dont be so reckless in the future. I dont want anything to happen to you, especially not to you having any contact with the people at the Virus Research Institute.
In the eyes of the people at the Research Institute, Jing Zhi wasnt a human at all. He was just ab rat for them to experiment on. They were desperate for Jing Zhis blood, and they wouldnt let him go if they had the chance.
Jing Rui waved at Han Feng and asked him to take Lucas away.
Send him to the hospital and try to save his life!
Brother, is he still useful? Jing Zhi asked, a little excited.
Otherwise, Jing Rui would not have chosen to save Lucas life.
I think he should know about Zishans situation. Also, Im not sure if he told anyone about the secret of my blood. Its best if hes alive, itll be a pity if he dies!
Zishan seemed to have disappeared into thin air recently, and Jing Rui did not like things that were out of his control.
ording to Zishans personality, she couldnt stay silent forever. Sooner orter, she woulde to him for revenge.
Han Feng sent Lucas to family MUs Hospital, where the doctor gave him an emergency treatment.
The attending doctor in charge of the rescue was mu Sen, who was only neen years old.
Although he was young, he had actually participated in various operations and emergency rescue a long time ago. His rich experience had already far exceeded that of ordinary doctors.
In fact, there was a special medical team in the hospital that was always at family Jings service.
Originally, mu Sen did not need to save Lucas himself, but mu Wensheng had been reminding him to get close to Jing Rui and take his girlfriend, Shuyin, away from him.
Mu Sen had never seen Shuyin before, and he didnt even know if she was round or t. He couldnt have any other thoughts just by saying that Shuyin was Jing Ruis girlfriend.
He only plucked the Tigers whiskers because he thought he was going to die!
Fighting with Jing Rui for a woman? The old master was overestimating him!
However, just because he wasnt interested in Shuyin didnt mean he wasnt interested in her talent.
Mu Wensheng had always been a man who was extremely strict with medicine. A girl who even he praised so much must be extraordinary.
For a girl younger than him to be able to move both his great-grandfather and father, it could be seen that her professional level had reached the top level in the world.
Mu Sen would be lying if he said he was not curious about such a talent.
Jing Rui had always been a legendary figure in his heart. Mu Sen had his own pride, and he had no intention of clinging to Jing Rui.
Moreover, he had always felt that Jing Rui was too cruel for sending mu duo to a military school and not allowing her to return to the country because of what had happened to her sister. It was no different from exile.
Mu duo had been pampered since she was young. She would have to go through a lot of hardships in military school. Mu Sens heart ached for his sister and could not bear to let her go to such a ce to suffer.
He had taken the initiative to save Jing Ruis men today because he wanted to use this opportunity to get in touch with Shuyin.
However, he didnt expect that there would be an unexpected surprise when he tried to save Lucas.
Lucass heart was actually growing on the right side. This was the first time he had seen such a case since he started performing surgery.
Lucas looked extremely thin, but strangely, his life force was very exuberant.
Mu Sen knew that this was due to the virus in his body.
As such, he was even more interested in the effects of the virus.
Jing Rui brought Shuyin and Jing Zhi to the hospital the next day. When Shuyin learned that Jing Zhi had caught Lucas, she looked at Jing Zhi with admiration and gratitude.
Jing Zhi was very pleased with himself. His brother didnt praise him, but he was now satisfied with Shuyin.
However, his smile froze on his face when he heard Shuyins next sentence.
Jing Zhi, thank you! Ive hated Lucas for many years, but Ive never been able to do anything to him. He killed my parents, and now I can avenge them!
Jing Rui stopped in his tracks for a moment and then returned to normal. His expression did not change at all, as if he had not heard what Shuyin had said.
Jing Zhi was not as strong-minded as Jing Rui. He looked at Shuyin with a stiff face and forced a smile.Haha, no need to thank me! Well be a family from now on. Besides, that old bastard Lucas has taken a lot of my blood in the past. Of course I wont let him off!
After he finished speaking, he held it in for a while and finally couldnt hold it in anymore. He asked carefully,Little Shenyu, you ... Still remember your parents? That ... How did you know that Lucas killed your parents?
The one who forced Shu Chengshan to his death was obviously Shu Yins brother!
Chapter 1158
Chapter 1158: My sister-inw doesnt need your admiration!
Trantor: 549690339
At the mention of her parents, Shuyins exquisite and wless face didnt show any sadness.
She treated them like two strangers and said indifferently,Its just a guess. The most likely person to have killed my parents is Lucas. As for my parents, Ive never forgotten that the Research Institutes memory loss medicine ispletely useless to me.
Her tone was a little apathetic, and she didnt sound like the kind of person who had deep feelings for her parents.
Thinking about it, she had been separated from her parents for too many years. Even if they had feelings for each other, they were probably worn out.
Jing Zhi looked at Shuyin, and the stone in his heart seemed to be less heavy.
He stole a nce at his brother and saw that he was also looking at Shuyin. There was gentleness and pity in his eyes, which he had never seen before.
Her brothers heart must be aching for her for entering that kind of ce at such a young age!
He hoped that Shuyin would never know the secret of Shucheng mountain.
Since she thought Lucas killed her parents, she would let the misunderstanding continue.
Jing Zhis expression returned to normal. He pushed all the me onto Lucas.That old bastard killed so many people! Dont worry, he wont be able to run away this time. You can dig out his eyes to take revengeter!
Shuyin suddenlyughed and said softly,I do want revenge. However, Im not avenging my parents. Im avenging myself. Havent I always been an orphan? What parents?
Jing Rui was not as rxed as Jing Zhi when he saw her smile.
Before Shu Chengshans death, he had the most contact with him.
At the same time, he was the only one who knew that Shu Chengshan loved his only daughter.
He was such a person who cherished his life. Wasnt the reason why he didnt want to live for two more days and heartlessly chose tomit suicide to prevent Shuyin from taking revenge?
How could a father who was willing to give up his life for his daughter not love her?
Shuyin said that she remembered the past, which meant that shepletely remembered that Shu Chengshan had personally sent her to the Research Institute. That was why she hated her parents and was extremely indifferent to them.
Jing Rui could not tell her that her father loved her. He could only look at her coldly and think that she was an orphan.
He didnt care that Jing Zhi was still beside him. He held Shu Yins slightly cold hand and led her along the long corridor of the hospital without a word.
Shuyin wanted to break free, but Jing Rui tightened his grip.
She raised her eyes and looked at Jing Rui shyly, signaling him to let go. Jing Zhi was still watching her.
Unexpectedly, Jing Rui said,Stop looking at me. If you look at me like that again, Im going to kiss you!
Shuyins face turned red in an instant!
The sharp pain in her heart that she had felt when she mentioned her parents disappeared in an instant!
She stomped her feet in anger, but could not shake off Jing Ruis hand.
Jing Zhi suddenly said coldly,brother, sister-inw, cant you go home and torture the dog? Ive been busy the whole night before I managed to get Lucas here, and you guys are showing off your love in front of me, are you trying to trample on my body and mind?
Shuyin immediately turned around and red at Jing Zhi.Stop it! Whos your sister-inw?!
Tsk, tsk, tsk, big brother, look, I dont want to acknowledge you! You have to hold on tight, or what if the shade of the tree is taken away?
Jing Rui was about to say that no one would dare to fight with him, when a handsome young doctor in a white coat came up to him.
You must be Shuyin, right? Hello, my name is mu Sen! My old man said that youre the worlds top doctor. Please give me your guidance!
His voice was clear and his entire person was bright and tall. The white coat did not diminish his handsomeness, but instead made him look clean, handsome, and full of vitality.
This man waspletely different from the two brothers of family Jing.
Shuyin had never seen such a friendly person before. He only smiled lightly, but it made her feel that the whole world was beautiful!
The other party extended his hand to her. Shu Yin only needed one look to know that he had a pair of slender joints and clean nails, which were the standard hands of a doctor.
Out of courtesy, Shuyin also extended her hand.Hello, I ...
Before she could finish her sentence, Jing Rui pulled her behind him. Mu Sens hand missed Shuyins nails.
Jing Zhi stared at mu Sen with an unfriendly expression.Kid, Im warning you, youd better stay away from my sister-inw, or Ill beat you up so badly that even your mother wont be able to recognize you!
He did not know that mu Wensheng wanted mu Sen to steal Shuyins business, but this did not stop him from thinking that mu Sen was plotting something.
Because mu Sen did not look at him or Jing Rui when he came up. He went straight for Shuyin. His target was too obvious!
After he warned mu Sen, he did not forget to turn around and say to Shuyin,Little Shenshu, you are innocent and dont know how treacherous the MU family is. You should stay away from them in the future, especially this mu Sen, who is a terrible person! Is it not enough to have my brother as a man?
Mu Sens expression turned ugly.
Why was he not a thing?
The MU family had been doctors for generations, treating and saving people. There didnt seem to be any treacherous people, right?
No one could be more cunning than family Jing.
Shuyin didnt know mu Sens background, but he didnt seem to be on good terms with Jing Rui and Jing Zhi. She had only heard about mu Sen from mu Wensheng the day before yesterday.
At that time, mu Wenshengs intention was very obvious. He wanted her to develop her rtionship with mu Sen.
She felt that it was better for her to avoid suspicion.
She smiled at mu Sen apologetically and stood behind Jing Rui for the first time.
She had never trusted outsiders much.
She only trusted Jing Rui.
Jing Rui was very satisfied with Shuyins attitude. He held her hand tightly and said to mu Sen coldly,This is my woman. If you want advice, you cane to me. Ill apany you anytime!
Mu Sens head hurt so much that he was about to copse!
Why were these two brothers the same as when they were young!
They were cold, strong, and always united to beat people up without distinguishing right from wrong!
In all honesty, he had no intention of snatching Shuyin away!
Although she was indeed very beautiful, not every man would be moved by a beauty.
Please dont misunderstand, I dont have any other meaning. I just admire miss Shus talent and want to exchange pointers, I ...
Bah! My sister-inw doesnt need your admiration, go and stay where you are! If you want to spar, you can look for me. I can satisfy you and cut you up!
Jing Zhi interrupted mu Sen rudely. He hated pretty boys the most. Mu Sen was good-looking, but his skin was so fair. When he smiled, his teeth were even whiter. He thought he was a typical pretty boy!
Mu Sens handsome face turned white with anger. If he was not well-mannered, he would definitely be cursing now!
Chapter 1159
Chapter 1159: Youve always hated the wrong person
Trantor: 549690339
Mu Sen rarely quarreled with others, and he rarely had conflicts with others.
He had a good temper, a good upbringing, and a high IQ and EQ. He could easily resolve most things.
Only when he met the brothers of family Jing would he bepletely confused.
Having a good temper did not mean that he had no temper. After being treated like this by the two brothers, mu Sen finally became angry and turned around to leave.
He would rather go home and be scolded by the old man than talk to Shuyin.
He was going to be skinned alive by the two brothers!
When Shu Yin saw mu Sen leave, she could not help but say,Arent we going a little too far? He looks like a good person.
Jing Rui and Jing Zhi said in unison,Whats not bad?!
Their expressions were surprisingly the same, and their tones were exactly the same. It was very frightening.
Shuyin blinked innocently.He obviously doesnt like me, and I dont like him either. Arent you two exaggerating?
Shuyin didnt think that she was beautiful enough to make all men fall in love with her. At least, when she was in the Research Institute, most men didnt seem to be interested in her.
Just now, mu Sens eyes were pure and clear, without any evil thoughts. He only saw her as half a peer. He was probably very obsessed with medical skills, so he wanted topare notes with her.
She could only be considered a half-baked doctor. She was only good at viruses and gic research, but she probably could notpare with mu Sen.
Jing Rui held Shuyins hand and said coldly,He better not have any other thoughts!
He felt that it was normal for men to fall for Shuyin. She had outstanding looks and an excellent temperament. One look and you could tell that she was a top beauty.
No one could guarantee whether mu Sen would be tempted.
He could only guarantee that the two of them would note into contact.
The three of them entered Lucass ward. After the emergency treatment, he had already woken up.
However, he was already seriously injured and had been injected with drugs, so his whole body was weak and he had no ability to take care of himself.
When he saw Jing Rui and the other two, a look of hatred appeared in his eyes. His pale face was full of ferocity, as if he wanted to tear them apart.
Jing Zhiughed coldly,Lucas, youre really tough! He can live like this? However, what do you mean by that look? are youining that I didnt shoot you urately enough yesterday and didnt kill you in one shot? You cant me me for that. I didnt know that your heart was crooked!
You have to thank me for having a heart on the right side. If I were to die, the secret of Jing Ruis body would be spread to the whole world! At that time, the two of you will be attacked by the whole world!
Lucass voice was hoarse, and with his ferocious expression, he looked like a demon who had just walked out of hell.
Ive already told your secret to someone else. Once I die, hell immediately leak the news! Hahaha! The Research Institute has been researching this topic for so long, and I didnt expect to find a breakthrough now. If I can find the secret of strengthening the body in all aspects, the whole world will remember me!
Jing Zhi frowned and looked at Jing Rui,brother, is he telling the truth? Could he be lying to us in order to live?
Jing Rui thought that Lucas was telling the truth, but he said calmly,Would a person like him tell us the truth? Hes just trying to live. When hes no longer of any value, well just kill him.
You want to kill me?
Although Lucas was weak, he was very confident.
He cherished his life very much. Before he came to A city, he had already made sufficient preparations.
He just didnt expect Jing Zhi to be so unpredictable when it came to killing people. Otherwise, he would have brought more people with him and wouldnt have lived in a ce without any security.
You wouldnt dare to kill me! Because I know too many secrets. If you kill me, all those secrets will be revealed to the public by my people!
Lucass sinister gaze stopped on Shuyins face, and he said with an unfathomable expression,Cheryl, do you want to know who killed your parents? Especially your father, he loved you the most back then!
The expression on Shuyins face didnt change at all. She said coldly,You know?
Of course!
Then I dont want to know!
Lucas frowned,dont you want to know? are you still suspecting that I killed them? I didnt kill your parents. Youve always hated the wrong person!
Shuyin didnt react at all to his words. She didnt believe him, but she didnt care either.
Jing Rui and Jing Zhis expressions changed. They did not expect Lucas to know about this.
They all looked at Shuyin at the same time, only to see her actually smile!
Lucas, you cant be thinking that youve always been good to me, right? Hate the wrong person? How could this be! Ive wanted to kill you for a long, long time. Unfortunately, Im not strong enough, and youre too careful. I didnt even have the chance to do it. It doesnt matter how my parents died. Whats important is that I almost died in your hands!
Lucas obviously knew that Shuyin hated him, but he didnt expect that Shuyin would be so indifferent to her parents!
Didnt she always say that she wanted to avenge her parents?
Why did it change now?
Your parents died unjustly. How can it not be important? As their daughter, you should avenge them!
Lucas tried his best to encourage Shuyin to take revenge, and Shuyin finally noticed something unusual.
If Lucas really did kill her, he wouldnt have encouraged her to take revenge so actively.
Unless it was someone else who killed her parents!
However, what did that matter?
All the inhumane torture and pain she had suffered was because of her parents. She was not so magnanimous that she could forgive them and seek justice for their deaths.
Lucas, I heard that you and my father are good friends, right?
Lucas didnt know what Shuyin meant by this question. He hesitated for a moment, then said,Yes, weve known each other for a long time!
Since youre a good friend and youve known him for a long time, doesnt he know that youre a scumbag? I will never forget the day he sent me to you!
Shuyin looked at Lucass shocked face andughed mockingly.You dont really think that I lost my memory, do you? Do you really think that Ill treat you as my father just because you asked me to call you foster father? Ill remember my father!
So your memory loss was all an act!
Yes, the effects of those drugs are too weak. Theyre useless to me. Do you think I should give you a shot of my newly developed memory loss drug?

Trantor: 549690339
You dare! If I lose my memory, youll never find out who killed your father!
Im not interested in this at all. Ill just take it that youre the one who killed him!
Not only did Lucas find Shuyins hasty decision hard to believe, but even Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were surprised.
They had originally thought that even if Shuyin didnt have any feelings for her parents, she would at least pay attention to who her fathers murderer was.
Yet, she had casually pressed down on Lucass head!
Jing Rui felt much more rxed. It was great that Shuyin did not care about this.
Otherwise, if she found out the truth in the future, she might not ept him at all.
Lucas nced at Jing Rui. He had thought that Shu Chengshans death was a good weapon, but now it seemed that he had overestimated Shuyins feelings for family.
This bargaining chip could only be temporarily suppressed. Even if it was exposed now, it would be very disadvantageous to him.
He looked at Jing Rui and sneered in his heart. Jing Rui had forced Shu Chengshan to his death, and now he was in love with Shu Chengshans daughter. He had to make good use of him!
I know many more secrets. Jing Rui, youd better not anger me. Otherwise, I will kill you and Jing Zhi even if I have to give up my life.
Jing Rui suddenly called Han Feng in and asked,Who is Lucas doctor?
Mu Sen,
Jing Rui frowned, but quickly rxed and said,Tell him to hang on to Lucas life, dont let him die. She would starve him for two days and give him food when he could speak. Also, cut off one finger a day.
Yes!
Now, cut off one of his ears!
Han Feng responded, took out a sharp knife, and was about to cut Lucass ear.
Shuyin was shocked. She didnt expect Jing Rui to be so cruel!
However, she had long been used to life and death, and even more used to all kinds of torture methods, so her expression quickly returned to calm.
Lucas screamed in pain. Jing Rui patted Shuyins shoulder.Yinyin, go out and wait. The scene here is too bloody. Its not suitable for you.
Im not afraid,Shuyin replied subconsciously.
Jing Rui smiled.I know you are not afraid. But I am afraid that you will not like me anymore after seeing how cruel I am.
I won t.
Shuyin already knew what kind of person Jing Rui was. She felt that it was not a bad thing to be cruel. Jing Rui had to be cruel in his position.
She was frightened just now because she was used to Jing Ruis gentleness and was not used to his sudden change.
Be good and leave first.
Jing Rui insisted on letting Shuyin out. He did not want Shuyin to see blood, and he did not want Lucas to reveal anything about Shucheng mountain.
Seeing that he was insistent, Shuyin followed his wishes and went out.
In fact, she really didnt like bloody scenes. Every time she faced it, she would just endure it.
She did not need to be strong in front of Jing Rui anyway, and it did not matter if she was weak.
She turned around and walked out. Even when she reached the end of the corridor, she could still hear Lucass miserable screams.
Shuyin had her own office andboratory in the hospital. She opened the door to theboratory and was surprised to see that there was someone in herboratory!
Doctor mu Sen, this is my privateboratory. I dont think you have the right to enter. She was a little unhappy.
Mu Sen immediately stood up and apologized to her,Im sorry, miss Shu. I didnt know this was yourboratory before I came in. After I came in, I was immersed in your research and forgot to leave!
His words were sincere, and his tone was apologetic. It was obvious that he was sincerely apologizing to Shuyin.
He was too good-looking, with handsome features, a sunny and gentle temperament, and an amiable voice, making it difficult for people to get angry with him.
Shuyin knew that mu Sens family had a long history. A person who liked medicine would often be immersed in some rted research and be unable to extricate himself.
The displeasure in her heart dissipated by half, but she still reminded mu Sen,I have a lot of viruses here. Its very dangerous for you to barge in like this.
Mu Sen knew that she was not ming him for entering without permission. He smiled brightly and said in a rxed tone,Alright, Ill tell you the next time Ie. But remember to lock the door! He said.
Shuyin was stunned. It was only then that she realized that she had forgotten to lock it when she came out of theboratory thest time!
No wonder mu Sen could enter so easily.
This hospital originally belonged to the MU family. Shuyin knew long ago that the hospital would be handed over to mu Sen to run in the future. He probably entered thisboratory only for the purpose of checking out his own hospital.
After all, there was no sign of anything outside herboratory, not even a namete that said boratory.
Okay, Ill remember to lock the door in the future. Thank you for the reminder.
Mu Sen smiled.Youre wee. It was indeed wrong of me to enter yourboratory today. However, I am very interested in the things inside. I hope that we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future!
Shuyin thought of Jing Ruis cold attitude towards mu Sen, but she did not dare to agree. She just smiled at him and wanted to change the subject.
She did not expect mu Sen to not let her off.
Miss Shu, Im serious. Please dont brush me off. My old man rarely praises others, but he did yesterday for an entire hour. I really want to learn from you. Other than you, Ive never seen anyone so young who can develop such aplex drug.
Shuyin looked at mu Sen indifferently. She really wanted to tell him that there were many people in the Research Institute who were better than her.
Because she was not crazy enough.
Shuyin wasnt good at interacting with others, and it was difficult for her to marry and trust others. Although mu Sen looked cheerful and didnt like to stab people in the back, Shuyin was still wary of him.
How could he just teach someone else about Virus Research?
What if mu Sen used the virus to harm people?
Moreover, the knowledge taught by the Virus Research Institute was definitely not free. She had used her life to exchange for it!
I dont have any ns to teach you at the moment.
Shu Yin told the truth and did not beat around the bush with mu Sen.
And Im afraid I wont be able to teach you. My own learning is also scattered and not systematic. I suggest you find a teacher who specializes in this area to learn.
Mu Sen could not help but smile bitterly at her direct rejection.
Mu Wensheng didnt let him learn from other people. The old man didnt like any of the so-called experts, professors, and teachers.
He had taken a fancy to Shuyin!
The acknowledgment was not going smoothly. In fact, mu Sen had long expected this.
This was the ability of others to look at their familys assets, so it was unreasonable to teach it to others casually.
That was why he had initially used the word sparring instead of learning.
Mu Sen had wanted to avoid Jing Rui and talk to Shuyin directly, but it seemed that it would not work.
He still had to find Jing Rui!

Chapter 1161: Cooperation
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui had no idea that mu Sen was still thinking about Shuyin. He and Jing Zhi were using harsh means to interrogate Lucas.
It was Lucas himself who repeatedly emphasized that he knew a lot of secrets. Since that was the case, there was no need for him to live if he did not reveal a few.
One of Lucass ears had already been cut off, and he immediately blurted out a bunch of things about Zishan in horror, betraying her without hesitation!
When mu Sen entered, he saw that the White bedsheets of the ward were already covered in blood.
He looked at Lucas, who had passed out, and frowned.If you want him to die, then bring him back. Ive been resuscitating him for the entire night before I managed to bring him back. If you continue to torment him like this, he wont even be able to live past this afternoon!
For some reason, Jing Zhi didnt like mu Sen. He thought that mu Sens face was too handsome and he always seemed to steal his limelight.
Who let you in? Are you looking for a beating?
Didnt you just ask someone to tell me to save the life of this Lucas? What, you want me to die now? This was very easy! Hell die immediately if I inject him with a needle!
What Lucas had said about Zishan and the Virus Research Institute was very useful.
He couldnt be allowed to die at the moment.
Ill fight you to the death if you let Lucas die!Jing Zhi said, a little annoyed.
Lets go all out. You can see if anyone in the hospital can guarantee Lucass survival if Im injured!
Mu Sen was extremely confident in his medical skills. Given Lucass condition yesterday, it would have been impossible for an ordinary doctor to save him.
Top doctors all had their own tempers, and they would not treat Lucas easily, especially when the brothers were about to kill someone.
Although family Jing had invested in the hospital, it was family mu who was in charge of the operation.
The doctors only listened to the director, and the current director of family MUs Hospital was his father, Mu Qing.
If he was injured, mu Sen believed that his father would definitely not help the two brothers.
Jing Rui looked at mu Sen and Jing Zhi and said,Mu Sen, you will be in charge of saving people for me in the future. In exchange, I can let you learn about viruses and gics!
Happiness came too suddenly, and mu Sen could not react in time.
Jing Ruis change was too fast, and it was not his style at all.
Youre serious?
Mu Sen looked at Jing Rui suspiciously. Even Jing Zhi was looking at him with wide eyes. He was surprised.
He didnt believe that his brother would be willing to let Shuyin teach mu Sen anything!
At that time, the two of them would have to do research together every day. Who knew what would happen when a man and a woman were alone in theboratory?
Jing Rui nodded indifferently.Really. But I will find someone else to teach you. It is not Shuyin.
Mu Sen was unwilling.The old man said that she has real talent and unique views. He asked me to learn from her. What if the other person you find isnt as good as me? Im not trying to boast, but Im still very powerful! Ordinary people cant teach me anymore. Even the old master said that Im smart and a genius!
Jing Zhi sneered,mu Sen, can you be more thick-skinned? Arent you afraid that the wind will cut your tongue if you say youre a genius in front of my brother?
However, mu Sen was not exaggerating. He was speaking the truth.
In fact, he did not usually praise himself in such a high-profile way, but he had to do it in front of Jing Rui, otherwise he would find someone to fool him.
Although Jing Rui was not happy that mu Sen wanted to get close to Shuyin, he would never ignore mu Sens talent.
It was a fact that he was highly skilled in medicine, but who asked him to study medicine from the moment he could speak?
No, the person I found for you is even better than Shuyin. Youll know when you see her.
More powerful than Shuyin?
Mu Sen was shocked. He had always been very confident. Not only was he smart, but he was also hardworking. He felt that there were almost no young people who were better than him.
He didnt know why, but geniuses had been popping up one after another recently, forcing him to study harder.
He was a little suspicious, but then he realized that Jing Rui would not lie.
Although this person was arrogant and cold, he had a great strength, and that was that he always kept his word and rarely went back on his words.
Alright, Ill wait. I believe you!
Mu Sen looked at Jing Rui and said,However, I cant torture this Lucas for the next two days. Otherwise, even the old man wont be able to save him.
This was the professional opinion of a professional doctor. Even if they were eager to dig out some secrets that Lucas knew, they could only listen.
Jing Rui nodded.Alright. Ill leave Lucas to you.
He knew that Lucas would not be able to hold on for long, but there was no way to extend his life. Now that mu Sen was helping, it was naturally the best.
Family Jing and family mu had been working together for many years, and it made sense.
The two families needed each other. Although family MUs overall strength was far inferior to family Jing s, they were very important in medical treatment.
Jing Yichen had said that he should get in touch with mu Sen more, because family mu would be handed over to mu Sen in the future. He hoped that the cooperation between the two families could continue.
The next day, Jing Rui came to the hospital again with a tall man with blonde hair and blue eyes.
He introduced the person to mu Sen.This is Peter. He used to be one of the top managers of the Virus Research Institute. He was also a top researcher.
Mu Sen had always been well-mannered. Even though he still doubted Peters professionalism, he still put on a smile.
After exchanging greetings with Peter, he went straight to the main topic and consulted with Peter on issues rted to the virus.
Jing Rui was not worried that mu Sen would look down on Peter. He had made Peter Rush back overnight from abroad so that mu Sen would not think about Shuyin.
He left mu Sens office and went to Lucass ward.
The moment he opened the door, he saw a tall figure standing in the ward.
Dad, what are you doing here?
Jing Yichen turned around and said calmly,You two brothers have grown up. You captured such an important person and you didnt tell me?
Jing Rui couldnt help butugh.You are busy coaxing my mother. I dont think it is necessary to bother you with such a small matter. He said. Ah Chi was the one who caught him. Hes very powerful now!
Jing Yichen didnt look surprised at all. Apparently, he had already known what had happened.
The power he controlled was not something that Jing Rui and Jing Zhi couldpare to.
However, Jing Zhineng was still very happy that he had caught someone as dangerous as Lucas.
Jing Yichen patted his sons shoulder and said calmly,I found out that eight years ago, Shuyins mother died in Lucass hands.
Chapter 1162
Chapter 1162: I have my eyes on a handsome man
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was slightly startled. It turned out that Shuyins judgment was not entirely wrong.
She had guessed one of them right.
However, he could not tell her that she had guessed it right.
Dad, dont tell Shuyin about this for the time being. Dont let her guess about Shu Chengshans death.
Jing Yichen nodded.I will leave this to you. I am just here to tell you the news. You can make the decision.
He was actually worried that Shuyin would not be able to ept Jing Rui if she found out the cause of Shucheng Shans death one day.
Most people would not be able to ept it. Even if Shuyin had no feelings for her parents, it would be difficult for her to be with Jing Rui in peace.
However, it was a good thing that only a few people knew about it, so the possibility of Shuyin knowing about it was very low.
Jing Yichen handed a stack of documents to Jing Rui and said calmly,These are some of thepanys internal confidential information. Take a look and have a general idea of the entire group. Tomorrow, well start to contact the shareholders and vice presidents in private. You dont have to worry about the trivial matters, you can leave it to me, or you can let ah Chi help out. Its not right for him to be so idle all day.
Jing Rui took the documents and flipped through some of them. He said unwillingly,You dont have to be so fast, do you? Im only twenty, you should give me a few more years of freedom! Dad, you only took over the group in your thirties, right? How about I take over when Im thirty?
Not much!
Jing Yichen refused without thinking. Although he had taken over the enterprise veryte, he had already started to get familiar with the business of thepany a long time ago. He had also visited all the branches abroad.
You still have the cheek to live your own life? you were not at home for eight years and you have never helped with thepanys matters. You dont even know how much thepany earns every year. If you keep ying, are you going to hand thepany over to your sister?
Jing Ruis eyes lit up,dad, thats a good idea! Xixis so smart, and she doesnt like to go to school every day. Its perfect to hand thepany over to her!
Jing Yichen patted his sons back and said, not knowing whether tough or cry,How old is your sister? You have the cheek to do that! Besides, are you sure she wont tear down thepany if you hand thepany over to her?
She might blow up all the buildings around Jingsheng enterprise!
Forget it, Ill take over, Jing Rui said, feeling a chill in his heart.
If Jing Xi were to take over, she would be able to lose all of the Jing familys assets in less than a month!
Where was this prodigal girl going to find a boyfriend in the future?!
How could an ordinary family withstand her torment!
Jing Xi didnt know that her brother was thinking about her not being able to get married when she grew up. She was actively expanding her harem. Whenever she saw a handsome boy, she would find a way tobel him with her ownbel.
Recently ... She had taken a fancy to a very handsome man.
Brother mu, have I memorized the effects of these herbs correctly?
Jing Xi was wearing a rose-red fluffy dress and carrying a small white backpack. Her soft and shiny long hair draped over her shoulders. She had delicate features and fair skin. At eight years old, she was considered very tall among her peers. Standing there, she actually had the posture of a little beauty that could topple cities.
Her eyes seemed to be able to speak. She stared unblinkingly at mu Sen, who was standing in front of the medicine cab, and spoke to him in a crisp and tender voice.
Mu Sen looked at the little girl standing in front of him, his heart so soft it could drip water.
He put the herbs away and picked Jing Xi up in his arms.
Xixi, youre so smart! When did you start to like Chinese medicine? I remember that you didnt like to learn it in the past, right?
Jing Xi leaned into mu Sens arms and asked him about the faint smell of herbs on his body. She felt that it was much better than the smell of perfume and smoke.
Her white arms wrapped around mu Sens neck and she said with a smile,My sister Shuyin taught me before. Shes really good at it, and I like it! Later on, he felt that it was very interesting to study these things! Thest time I ate something bad, it was I who made the medicine and cured it!
Mu Sen was so scared that he almost threw the little girl in his arms out!
Making medicine to cure diarrhea?
Was he crazy?
Nowadays, this kind of medicine could be found in any pharmacy. Why would he need to make it himself?
Mu Sen sat down on the wooden chair in the pharmacy with Jing Xi in his arms and said to her in a serious tone,Xixi, youre still young. You cant eat anything you want in the future! Especially the medicine that youve concocted. If youre sick or feel unwell, juste to the hospital to find me, okay?
Yes, thats what I wanted to hear!
Jing Xis heart jumped, and her beautiful little face was full of joy.Brother mu, can Ie and y with you more often in the future?
Her simple and pure happiness infected mu Sen.
There was a gentle glow on his handsome face, and his dark brown eyes were overflowing with a gentle smile.Of course, Xixi, if you like it, you cane every day!
Among all the people in the Jing family, only Jing Xi was willing to be close to him and would call him brother mu sweetly.
Mu Sens love for Jing Xi was no less than his own sister.
In the past, he would berate mu duo. Every time mu duo was stubborn and disobedient, he would even be extremely strict with her.
However, he could not bear to scold Jing Xi.
She was a little princess who grew up with a golden spoon in her mouth. Although she liked to tease people, she was innocent, mischievous, and extremely intelligent.
She was delicate but not spoiled. She did not have any bad habits. She only had the temperament and knowledge that a youngdy of an aristocratic family should have.
When she grew up, she would definitely be the most dazzling Pearl in the entire A city!
Mu Sen carried the little girl and carefully tidied her skirt. Seeing that her white leather boots were dirty, he took a piece of tissue from the table and wet it to wipe her.
Jing Xi sat on mu Sensp and looked at his side profile. She felt that she had found the perfect target this time.
He was handsome, meticulous, and very protective of her!
The 19-year-old mu Sen was indeed different from those eight or nine-year-old children!
He was so handsome!
He was so mature and steady!
He was good at everything!
But after a while, Jing Xis little face fell.
Neen years old, there were advantages and disadvantages!
He would definitely have a girlfriend in two years!
However, she would only be ten years old in two years!
Mu Sen noticed Jing Xis frown immediately.
A moment ago, she was as happy as a little bird that had just learned how to fly, but the next moment, she had be a little old woman with a lot on her mind.
Mu Sen could not help butugh. The little girl was too cute. She was only eight years old, but sometimes she looked like an adult. She could think and liked to ponder. She waspletely different from mu duo!
Chapter 1163
Chapter 1163: Do you like me?
Trantor: 549690339
Mu Sen was amazed by the Jing familys genes.
As far as he knew, Jing Xi had a very high IQ.
In fact, she had already finished the curriculum of primary school, junior high school, and even Senior High School. She had even dabbled in a lot of knowledge from University. The amount of knowledge she had was probably even more than his.
The reason why Jing Xi was still in primary school was that Jing Yichen didnt want his daughter to miss out on her childhood.
She did not need to inherit the family business in the future. She did not need to be an indomitable spirit. Jing Rui, her brother, would support everything outside. She just needed to be a normal and happy girl, and not have to go through the cruel test of life and death.
Mu Sen reached out and pinched Jing Xis little face. Her delicate skin made him want to take a bite.
Xixi, whats wrong? Are you feeling ufortable?
Although mu Sen asked this, he actually knew that there was nothing wrong with Jing Xis body. When she frowned just now, he subconsciously held Jing Xis wrist and felt her pulse without a sound.
Her pulse was normal, showing that she was very healthy.
To his surprise, Jing Xi said worriedly,Yes, Im not feeling well. Brother mu, my chest is tight and my heart hurts. Can you take a look at me and tell me if Im suffering from some terminal illness?
Mu Sen was shocked and subconsciously felt Jing Xis pulse.
Looking at the sad expression on Jing Xis beautiful face, he almost doubted his medical skills!
But no matter how he checked her pulse, he couldnt find anything wrong with Jing Xi.
Her face was ruddy, her hair was lustrous, and her heartbeat was steady and strong. She didnt look like she had a heart disease!
Mu Sen was both angry and amused. He tapped her delicate little nose and coaxed her,Dont talk nonsense. Who would curse themselves to get a terminal illness? You dont have any illness and are very healthy! Ill take you out to y, okay? Go out for a walk and your chest wont feel so stuffy!
He hade into contact with many childrens patients. Some of them were really sick. Some of them deliberately made a scene at home, lying that they had stomachs or headaches. Some children always thought that they had terminal illnesses and were about to die, but in fact, the children were fine!
Mu Sen had some experience in coaxing children. After all, he had been coaxing mu duo all the way until she grew up.
Unfortunately, Jing Xi waspletely different from other children, and her illness was also different from other children. No child would pretend to be sick because they liked mu Sen.
Jing Xi leaned on mu Sens body and felt his warm andfortable embrace. She pouted and said pitifully,My big brother and second brother dont want me anymore. My parents dont want me either. Brother mu, do you not want me anymore?
Where did thise from!
Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning had been protecting their daughter, and Jing Zhi, their cousin, loved Jing Xi very much, not to mention Jing Rui, who was her brother.
He did not know what had happened to the little girl, but she actually felt that the whole family did not want her anymore.
Was it because Jing Rui was too busy dating to care about his sister?
It didnt seem like it. Jing Rui didnt seem to be very attached to Shuyin.
Mu Sen could not guess the reason, but he smiled gently and said,I want you. Your parents and brothers love you very much. Youre still young, so dont be so sad.
Lets go! He said as he stood up with Jing Xi in his arms.Ill take you out to y!
When children y, they will definitely forget all their troubles.
Jing Xiy on mu Sens body obediently. Although she liked it when mu Sen held her like this, she looked at her small arms and legs and felt that she was too short.
Brother mu, when can I grow taller?
The topic jumped a little too far, and mu Sen could not keep up with the little girls brain circuits.
He smiled in a good mood and said,eat well and youll grow taller soon! Xixi, why do you want to grow taller?
You and my brother are both very tall. If Im too short, Ill beughed at. Ive grown taller, so you wont treat me like a child!
How can you be short?
Mu Sens face was full of smiles. He felt that the little girl in his arms was too cute. His entire person was infected by her happiness.
Your parents are both very tall. ording to thews of gics, Im afraid youll be as tall as your mother at the shortest.
Shangguan ning was 1.68 meters tall, and Jing Yichen and Jing Rui were both 1.88 meters tall. Jing Xi could not be any shorter.
But why did Jing Xi suddenly care about her height?
She had developed well and could walk at a very early age. Her legs were long and slender, much longer than other eight-year-old girls, and she was actuallyining about her short?
Mu Sen carried Jing Xi out of the pharmacy and took her to his car. He leaned over to fasten the seat belt for the little girl and saw that she was staring at him. He smiled and touched her head. Whats wrong with you today? I think you have something on your mind. Tell me, maybe I can help you solve it?
Ive taken a fancy to you!
He had something on his mind!
But ... Could he really say that?
Jing Xi blinked and asked innocently,Brother mu, do you like me?
Mu Senughed. He suddenly had the urge to hold the little girl in his arms. He couldnt help but lower his head and kiss Jing Xis little face.Of course I like her! Everyone loves her!
Although he had heard the answer he wanted to hear, this feeling was clearly not right.
He was just like an older brother to a younger sister.
Thats right, if he were to fall in love with an eight-year-old loli, wouldnt that be a little perverted?
Jing Xi touched her little face and was a little excited.
No matter what, the handsome man had kissed her!
Jing Xi felt that she had taken advantage of him and couldnt help butugh.
Mu Sen saw that the little girls expression was so varied that it could be used as an emoji pack!
He raised the corner of his lips and sighed in his heart. It was indeed a childs world. He, an adult, could not understand it at all.
However, it was obvious that children also liked to be praised. Mu Sen turned his head and nced at Jing Xi, who was sitting obediently in the front passenger seat. He was in a good mood.
Mu duo had gone abroad, and it was not bad to have Jing Xi now!
Jing Xi was much cuter than her two brothers. She was obedient, smart, and as beautiful as a doll.
He would definitely take good care of the little girl.
Jing Zhi arrived at the hospital. As soon as he stopped the car, he saw mu Sen carrying Jing Xi into the car. Before he could react, mu Sen had already driven away with Jing Xi.
Jing Zhi frowned and rushed into the hospital. He found Jing Rui in Lucass ward and shouted,Brother, our sister has been tricked away by that pretty boy mu Sen!
Jing Rui looked at him and said,Impossible.
Jing Xi had only ever lied to others, but she had never been lied to!

Chapter 1164: Dad, youre in good health!
Trantor: 549690339
Besides, mu Sen had no reason to lie to Jing Xi.
It was hard to say who was lying to who!
Jing Yichen chimed in.No, I watched mu Sen grow up. He has always been nice to Xixi. He must have taken her out to y.
Jing Zhi and mu Sen didnt see eye to eye, and he always felt that mu Sen had bad intentions in taking Jing Xi away.
He was really thinking too much!
The one with bad intentions was obviously his precious sister!
How about I go get Xixi back? Jing Xi is still young, what if shes led astray by that pretty boy?
Jing Yichen didnt know why his nephew had given the handsome mu Sen such a nickname. Mu Sen had fair skin but was mature and steady. He had also been under Jing Tianyuans tutge for two years and had received high-intensity physical training. Even ten people would not be able to defeat him.
In his spare time studying medicine, he had always been working out. He looked thin, but his muscles were firm and smooth,pletely different from a pretty boy!
Thats great. Im very pleased that ah Chi loves his sister. I have something to do today, so Ill leave Xixi in your care. If she wants to go to school, remember to prepare more money. Im afraid that the old principal will cry again if the money is too little.
Jing Yichens expression was calm, but Jing Zhi shivered.
That ... Err...I have something to do today too. Ill leave in a while!
What a joke! He had only sent Jing Xi to school once, and he had almost broken down. Now, as long as he thought of thest time he had gone there, it was like a big scene of a memorial service for the whole school, and he felt terrified!
Forget it, let mu Sen take Jing Xi away!
Bring this little demoness to the MU family and bring disaster to the MU family!
Jing Rui suddenly frowned.Dad, did you bring Xixi to the hospital today?
Yes, I was supposed to let you take care of her. Jing Yichen said.
However, mu Sen had managed to beat him to it!
It was so strange that someone could stand Jing Xi!
Hopefully, mu Sen would not cry and send the little girl backter!
Jing Rui felt a headacheing on.Dad, she is your daughter. You shouldnt leave her to me.
Its not a big deal. Youre her brother, and Xixi likes you. Its your duty to take care of your sister!
What Jing Yichen said was that he disliked this girl for always ruining his ns.
Your mother seems to be suffering from insomnia recently. Im going to take her to the hot spring in the suburbs to rx. Ill leave your sister to you for the next two days. If shes hurt in the slightest, you can exin it to your mother yourself!
Shangguan ning had insomnia?
Jing Rui was both angry and amused.
Moms sleep had always been good, so how could she have insomnia?
Even if he couldnt sleep, it was probably ...
Jing Rui stared at Jing Yichen with a strange look and said with a half-smile,Dad, youre in good health!
Jing Yichen said calmly, as if he didnt understand what his son meant. Its pretty good!
He had been maintaining the habit of working out for a long time, so his body was indeed in good shape. His figure was well-proportioned and perfect, without a trace of fat, making him look very young.
Then Im afraid my moms insomnia will take a while to recover.
Its fine. She can sleep during the day as long as your sister is not at home.
Jing Zhi looked at the father and son in confusion. Why couldnt he understand what his brother and uncle were talking about?
Is first aunts insomnia serious? Then should we buy her some medicine here?
Jing Yichen and Jing Rui said in unison,No need!
Jing Zhi looked at them, then at them, and finally decided to shut up.
He didnt understand the world of the genius father and son!
Jing Rui didnt even look at Jing Zhi. He just stared at Jing Yichen and said, Im going to be a father, a mother, and a brother in the future?
Thats a good idea, then its decided!
What do you mean?
He would go crazy if he had to take care of Jing Xi alone!
This little girl was too good at causing trouble!
I dont agree! Xixi listens to my mother the most, so its better to let her stay at home! Dad, its not easy for you to earn money. We cant let sister squander it all!
Its fine. Youll be the one making money in the future. No matter how much Xixi spends, itll all be from your ount.
Jing Yichen said as he adjusted the white shirt that Shangguan ning had put on for him this morning. Then he strode out of the room, without any sense of shame.
Father, Jing Rui said,I can take care of Xixi, but can I ask you for a favor?
Beg him?
This was a little strange!
Jing Yichen had never heard his son beg him.
What is it?
I only have one request. Please dont give me another sister!
One was enough. If there was another one, family Jing would go bankrupt.
Jing Yichen looked at his son and thought for a while before he said,I cant listen to you on this. I have to Listen to Your Mother.
Jing Rui was shocked. Was his father really going to have another child?
His brain was working at full speed, and he immediately said,Dad, this is for moms good. Shes already over 40 years old, and its not suitable for her to have children anymore. You see, now that you have a son and a daughter, its enough for Xixi and I to be filial to you!
Usually, Jing Yichen would give in as long as Shangguan ning was mentioned.
Sure enough, after thinking for a while, he also felt that having a child was not good for Shangguan ning. He nodded and said,I know. You dont have to worry about this. Just take good care of your sister. When your mother sees Xixi in a few days, you cant let her think that Xixi has lost weight!
Jing Rui heaved a sigh of relief.Sure! Xixi will not lose weight! He said.
Jing Xi wasnt a picky eater, and she was easy to take care of.
Jing Yichen left in satisfaction, but Jing Rui looked as if he had been tricked. He looked at Lucas, who was lying on the bed half-dead, and felt even more annoyed.
Lucas was still unconscious, and his face was so pale that he didnt look human.
If it wasnt for the beeping of the device on his body, showing his signs of life, people would probably think he was just a corpse.
Jing Rui stood by the bed and suddenly noticed that Lucas ear had been fixed.
He bent over to check and found that Lucas ears were connected very well. If one did not look carefully, one would not even be able to tell that it was cut off and reattached.
This did not only test the doctors suturing skills, but more importantly, the doctor must have a deep understanding and a high degree of familiarity with the human bodys structure.
Jing Rui had a new understanding of mu Sens medical skills.
The MU familys medical skills were indeed worthy of their reputation. Mu Sens family had a long history and was really a genius in medical science!
Jing Zhi followed his brothers gaze and saw that Lucass ears had been fixed.
He said in surprise,you can even connect this properly? Weve been cutting off his ears for some time! It seems like that mu guy has some skills!
Jing Zhi suddenly burst intoughter.Haha, thats great! With mu Sen, we can torture Lucas more! I originally thought that he only had two ears to cut, but now, I can cut them however I want! I dont believe hes not afraid!

Chapter 1165: You are more handsome than my big brother and second brother!
Trantor: 549690339
Lucas was indeed afraid.
He did not expect that his ears had actually been fixed!
No one liked to be disabled. Seeing that his ears were as good as new, Lucas didnt dare to let them be cut off again.
After he woke up, he said almost everything he could.
Jing Rui had gotten a lot of useful information. He felt that Jing Zhi had done a very meaningful thing by capturing this man.
Jing Rui decided to give another important task to his brother, who was so capable.
Chi, Ill leave Xixi in your care for the next few days. Youre the closest to her.
Jing Zhi was stunned. Since when was Jing Xi his closest friend? Her brother did not even blink when he lied!
Brother, Im busy!
Its fine. Leave the bar and the car rentalpany to me. Youre in charge of looking after the child!
He had to pay for both of these things, but Jing Zhi had no money at all and he was too embarrassed to ask his parents for money. Jing Zhi was tempted when he heard that Jing Rui was willing to solve the problem for him.
Jing Rui felt relieved after Jing Zhi handed Jing Xi over to him. He left the hospital with the documents given to him by Jing Yichen and went home to study thepanys data.
Jing Zhi asked for mu Sens phone number, asked for his location, and drove there.
From a distance, Jing Zhi could see a tall figure holding a small figures hand and walking barefoot on the soft beach.
Jing Zhi could even hear Jing Xis happy cheers and mu Sens careful reminders in the breeze.
Xixi, slow down, he said non-stop.Youre running too fast. Youre going to fall.
Jing Zhi had never seen Jing Xi so obedient.
The two of them had been ying together for so long, but the little devil didnt y with mu Sen. This didnt make sense!
He had thought that when he came here, he would see mu Sens miserable appearance, foaming at the mouth and unconscious!
Jing Zhi snorted in his heart. He thought that Jing Xi must have been bewitched by mu Sens face.
The young woman had always liked handsome men and had even collected many handsome young men. She was prepared to pick the most handsome one to be her boyfriend when they grew up.
Those little kids were not even as tall or as beautiful as Jing Xi. How could theypare to mu Sen, who was so handsome that he could be a star?
Jing Zhi found mu Sen more and more unpleasant to the eye.
Why was a doctor so good-looking?
Wasnt this the same as inducing the patient tomit a crime?
He decided that he would keep Jing Xi away from mu Sen.
This man had killed many people from the age of eight to eighty. In the past two days, Jing Zhi had seen many female patientse to see mu Sen.
But in fact, those people were dressed up gorgeously, their faces were ruddy, and they were shy. One look and you could tell that they were not sick in the body, but in the brain!
Jing Xi had already seen Jing Zhi, but she pretended not to see him. She continued to let mu Sen hold her hand and stepped on his footprints. She shouted happily,Brother mu, your feet are so big. I can step on two of them! I like you!
Childrens words had no taboos.
Her young and clear voice made peoples hearts soften unconsciously. When she smiled, she looked like an angel who had fallen into the mortal world.
If you stop liking me one day, remember to tell me. Ill prepare a pack of tissues and cry!
Mu Sen was joking with Jing Xi, but he really hoped that Jing Xi would always like him and that he could y with her more in the future.
His mood subconsciously improved when he was with the little girl.
A childs world was pure and free of impurities. She only knew how to be happy and jump around without any worries. Mu Sen looked at her and felt that he would forget all his worries.
I won t! Ill always like you, and when I grow up, Ill marry you!
Mu Sen was amused by her and could not help butugh, revealing a row of neat white teeth.
When you grow up, Ill be old! By then, youll definitely like someone else and despise me, this old man!
He used a little strength and lifted Jing Xi up. She stepped on his foot and they walked on the beach.
When mu Sen saw Jing Xis Jade-like feet stepping on his, he realized for the first time that the little girls feet were so beautiful!
Her five little toes were round and cute, and her pale pink nails were like full and shiny pearls.
Mu Sen had no impression of his own sisters feet. Perhaps he had never paid attention to his sisters feet. The two of them had been together every day and grew up together, so they had missed out on many details.
Who said youre old? Youre very young!
Jing Xi pouted unhappily. She thought mu Sen was the most handsome and would never grow old.
Youre more handsome than my big brother and second brother!
A sinister voice suddenly came from behind Jing Xi.Little sister, second brother is here to bring you home! I will let you know who is the most handsome!
Jing Xi seemed to be shocked. She immediately hugged mu Sens leg and shouted,Brother mu, Im not leaving. I dont want to go home. Second brother will definitely beat me when I get home! He broke my armst time!
Jing Zhis face darkened. This girl was speaking as if she was telling the truth.
When did he touch a single strand of her hair!
He was the one who suffered losses every time!
Her acting skills were getting better and better. If this continued, she would be the youngest Oscar winner in history!
Jing Zhi, why dont you let me y with Xixi for a while longer? Ill take her home in the evening.
Of course, mu Sen knew that Jing Zhi would not hit Jing Xi. Although Jing Zhi looked fierce, in fact, he protected Jing Xi as if she was his own eyeball.
However, seeing that Jing Xi had not had enough fun, he was a little reluctant to let her go.
He had even promised to take Jing Xi to eat authentic fried rice cake, but the little girl had said that she had never eaten it before.
No! My sister is going home now. A Big Bad Wolf like you should stay away from little sheep like my sister! Dont think that you can deceive people just because you have a handsome face. Hmph, I wont be fooled!
Mu Sen subconsciously touched his face. He was ... Very handsome?
No matter how handsome he was, he couldnt be more handsome than the two brothers of family Jing.
He suspected that Jing Zhi didnt like him because he was more handsome than him.
However, he really didnt have a better reason to keep Jing Xi.
Mu Sen picked Jing Xi up and wiped her feet with his expensive casual coat. Then, he carefully put on her shoes and coaxed her softly,Xixi, you should go home. Ill take you out to y in the future.
No! Jing Xi shook her head.Im not going home! I want to y with you! Brother mu, do you not like me anymore? Did I make you angry?
Chapter 1166
Chapter 1166: Embarrassing
Trantor: 549690339
As Jing Xi spoke, she looked like she was about to cry, as if she had been greatly wronged.
Mu Sen didnt have much contact with Jing Xi and didnt know that she was acting. Seeing her eyes red from being wronged, he suddenly felt distressed.
He quickly patted her back and said gently,No, brother has always liked you, and you didnt make him angry. I want to y with you too. However, your second brother insisted on bringing you home. I cant beat him, so I could only let go!
Jing Xi had always thought that mu Sen was an honest man. She did not expect him to be so evil as to set Jing Zhi up.
Jing Xi immediately turned to Jing Zhi and said,Second brother, you cant hit my brother mu! I like him, not you. You can go back, I want to y with brother MU today!
It had only been half a day, and the little girls heart had actually be crooked like this!
Did mu Sen give her a bewitching drug?
Jing Zhi snatched Jing Xi from mu Sens hands in anger. He ignored Jing Xis struggle and carried her away.
As he walked, he smacked Jing Xis butt.Stinky girl, dont you know how close we are? I am your second brother, that mu Sen is nothing! You still call me brother mu? other than me and your brother, no one can call me brother! How dare you stop liking me? do you believe Ill spank you until your butt blossoms?
Jing Xi suddenly burst into tears.
He had actually been spanked in front of mu Sen! It was too embarrassing!
She had tried so hard to act like an adult in front of mu Sen, but Jing Zhis p had ruined everything.
Only a little kid would be spanked. She was a big girl now, how could he do this to her!
Jing Zhi knew what he was doing, so he didnt use much force, but he didnt expect Jing Xi to cry so hard.
He felt that the young woman must be pretending. He ignored her, carried her, and stuffed her into his car. Then, he drove away.
Mu Sen stood alone on the beach. Jing Xis heart-wrenching cries seemed to still linger in his ears, making him feel a little distressed.
He knew that Jing Zhi wouldnt be too hard on her, but he was still worried that Jing Zhi would hurt her.
The little girl was so cute and he loved her so much that he couldnt bear to touch her.
He had the urge to take Jing Xi back, but he had no reason to do so. He could only watch as Jing Xi left in tears.
It had been a long time since mu Sen had felt such an ufortable feeling.
He had felt this way when mu duo had been thrown to the military school by Jing Rui, but it was different today.
Because Zheng Yuwei was also in the military school at that time, and mu duo wasnt young anymore, going to the military school would only be good for her. At most, she would suffer a little.
But Jing Xi was different. She was too young!
What if she really pissed Jing Zhi off and he beat her up?
Mu Sen thought for a while and then took out his cell phone to call Jing Yichen.
Uncle Jing, Jing Zhi just took Xixi home. Hell probably send her hometer.
If I dont send it home, you wont just leave it be, right?
Jing Yichen really didnt want to care. He was already driving Shangguan ning to the hot spring Vi.
He had left enough people to protect Jing Xi. Moreover, Jing Xi was a strange person, so there was nothing to be afraid of even if she got lost. Anyway, she would definitely not be the one to suffer.
Moreover, he had already handed Jing Xi over to Jing Rui, and it was normal for Jing Zhi to look after the child.
But after mu Sen had taken care of Jing Xi for the whole morning, Jing Yichen said calmly,Xixi was naughty. Youve been taking care of her for the whole morning. Its been hard on you!
Mu Sen did not think that Jing Xi was being naughty at all.
He smiled.Its not hard at all. Xixi is very obedient and smart. Shes like a little adult. I feel better when Im with her.
Jing Yichen was suddenly confused. Was this Jing Xi that mu Sen was talking about?
Well-behaved?
Obedient?
His daughter didnt seem to have anything to do with these two words, right?
Mu Sens words were full of praise for his daughter. Even though Jing Yichen felt that it was a bit undeserving, he was still very happy.
Its good that you like her. Shes been fascinated by medicine these two days and mighte to you again. If she gets into trouble, please bear with her.
Jing Yichen was worried that his daughter might blow up family MUs Hospital!
If the little girl went to the hospital, it would be better for mu Sen to keep a close eye on her.
Many of the high-end facilities in family MUs Hospital had been bought by family Jing, and they were all expensive.
Jing Yichen rarely spoke to others in such a gentle tone. Even mu Sen was surprised. He didnt know why Jing Yichen was so kind to him.
Jing Yichen was actually very kind to everyone who could tolerate Jing Xi and take care of her.
She had to be friendly. Her daughter was too good at causing trouble. If she was not watched, she could turn the entire A city upside down!
He could only give mu Sen a heads up in advance.
Jing Zhi drove Jing Xi home, and she kept crying on the way.
Jing Zhi started to panic after crying so much.
He carried Jing Xi to the sofa and asked suspiciously,Xixi, was I too harsh just now? I didnt use much strength, I just patted you lightly!
He really didnt use any strength. The little girls skin was so soft and tender, how could he bear to hit her!
Jing Xi ignored him and continued to cry until her voice was hoarse.
She felt that she had lost a lot of face in front of mu Sen!
Now, she was so sad that her eyes were swollen from crying.
Xixi, dont cry. Im in the wrong, okay? I wont hit you again. If I do, Im a pig!
Jing Xi suddenly stopped crying. She wanted tough, but when she thought of the embarrassing scene, she cried even louder.
Jing Zhis forehead was covered in sweat. He clumsily wiped the tears off the girls face and tried tofort her.Great aunt, can you stop crying? If youre not happy, you can beat me up! If I continue to cry like this, our brother will skin me alive!
Although Jing Xi used to cry a lot, it was all an act. Usually, she would only cry for a minute or two before stopping.
But now, she had been crying for almost an hour!
Fortunately, he had been smart enough to bring Jing Xi back to his vi. If he had brought her to Jing Ruis ce, he would have been beaten up by Jing Rui.
Jing Zhis heart ached for his sister.
He patted Jing Xis back helplessly and clumsily wiped her tears away, but the little girl avoided him.
Stay away from me. You hit me. I dont like you anymore!
Jing Xi was still fussing over the beating. Although it didnt hurt, she felt embarrassed that mu Sen had seen her getting spanked.
Wuwuwu ... Ive already grown up. How can you spank my butt? Im a girl. Dont you know that there are differences between men and women?!
Chapter 1167
Chapter 1167: Who is this, second brother?
Trantor: 549690339
It turned out that the little girl felt that her self-esteem had been hurt!
How old are you? do you know the difference between men and women?
They were brother and sister, what was there to be apart about!
When she turned eighteen, she would tell him that there was a difference between men and women!
However, she was finally willing to talk to him!
Jing Zhi heaved a sigh of relief and said, Im sorry, Im sorry. I wont do it again. Ill definitely respect you in the future! Can you forgive second brother this time?
No! I will never forgive you unless you send me to brother mu!
Mu Sen is busy. He has to go to school and perform surgery. Dont go. Cant second brother y with you?
Jing Zhi did not want Jing Xi to be with mu Sen at all. He always felt that mu Sen was not a good person.
Otherwise, why would Jing Xi keep thinking about him?
Jing Xi was still crying. Her shoulders were shaking as she said,Brother mu is going to take me to eat fried rice cake. Ive never eaten such delicious food before. Now that youve brought me back, I cant eat it anymore!
Jing Zhi stared at Jing Xi with a strange look.
Fried rice cake?
Didnt she eat it many times?
Why did he say he hadnt eaten?
He did not believe that Jing Xi had forgotten what she had eaten. She was smart and could remember everything clearly.
The little girl didnt even blink when she made up a lie.
Jing Zhi was smart enough not to expose her. He went along with Jing Xis n and said,Ah, I havent eaten before either. Lets go and eat together! I promise you Ill make you the most delicious fried rice cake!
Im not eating with you. Youre not as handsome as my brother mu. I want to eat with him!
Brother mu said that he can make it himself. Can you do it?
Brother mu also knows how to treat and save people. He said that I can go to him if Im not feeling well. Im not feeling well anywhere right now. I want to see brother mu!
Jing Zhis head hurt when he heard brother MUs name every time he opened his mouth.
Mu Sen had almost be his curse!
But the more it was like this, the more Jing Zhi didnt want to hand Jing Xi over to mu Sen. At this rate, mu Sen would be able to rece himpletely in less than three days!
Children were forgetful. After not seeing each other for a few days, they would definitely have forgotten about mu Sen.
Jing Zhi wiped Jing Xis face and took her out.
Jing Zhi took her to an authentic Korean restaurant since she wanted to eat fried rice cake.
Jing Xi sat in her seat and ignored the hot fried rice cakes.
No matter how Jing Zhi coaxed her, she refused to eat or even drink.
If you listen to me, Ill send you to mu Sens ce after you eat!
Jing Xi did not fall for it. She pouted and sat there unhappily. She still missed mu Sen.
Mu Sen had the best temper and was the most meticulous. He would definitely not bear to hit her!
Jing Zhi ordered a table full of food, but Jing Xi refused to eat a single bite. He only ate a little before losing his appetite.
He was about to order something else for Jing Xi to eat when he looked up and saw a slender and beautiful waiter standing next to the table.
At this time, the waiter had just finished ordering the customer and turned around to walk over.
However, she had only taken two steps when she stopped.
Jing Zhi only hesitated for a second, then, as if he didnt know her, he said,Waiter, please order!
Xiao Tong froze there, not moving at all.
She had never thought that she would meet Jing Zhi again.
She had thought that they would never have any contact again. After all, one was in the sky and the other was in the bottom of the valley.
Xiao mo was still in a daze when he was suddenly hit on the back. He heard the cold voice of the manager on duty,What are you doing? If you continue to be in a daze, get lost!
The managers voice was so low that only Xiao Ling could hear him, but Jing Zhis hearing was so good that he heard every word.
Jing Zhi looked at the chubby manager coldly. He put his hand on mys back on purpose, trying to take advantage of her.
Jing Zhi was furious.
In the past, when he asked Xiao Ling to sit next to him and drink, she would never agree. Now, she was being taken advantage of by this thing and she didnt even resist!
Where was her backbone?
Where was her moving self-esteem?
Xiao Ling, I havent seen you for a few days, and youve be more capable! You even learned how to hook up with your own leader!
Xiao Mos face turned pale, and his big eyes were filled with shame and fear.
The manager behind her quickly pulled his hand back. He saw Jing Zhi dressed in branded clothes and the girl sitting across from him dressed in clothes that were equivalent to a years worth of his sry. He immediately smiled at Jing Zhi, trying to please him.So this gentleman knows Xiao Ling!
He turned around and said to Xiao mo in a gentle tone,Xiao Ling, quickly go and order! This friend of yours must be here for the first time, please take care of him!
After he finished speaking, he quickly left.
Jing Zhis cold gaze made her hair stand on end.
Xiao mo walked slowly to Jing Zhis side. She didnt dare to look Jing Zhi in the eye. She lowered her head and said,You ... Guys, what do you want?
Jing Xi looked at Xiao mo listlessly, but then she felt that she had met Xiao mo before.
However, she clearly remembered that she didnt know this waitress.
Jing Xi stared at Xiao Lings beautiful side profile for a while, and soon understood where the sense of familiarity came from.
This Xiao Ling was actually like Zheng yuluo!
Both of them looked fresh. Although there was no simrity in their facial features, the feeling of gentleness and weakness was exactly the same as Zheng yuluo s!
Jing Xi looked at Jing Zhi with her eyes wide open, feeling as if she had just discovered a big secret.
Second brother, who is this? Howe Ive never seen him before?
His sister finally took the initiative to talk to him. Jing Zhi had been very angry with Xiao Ling at first, but now he finally liked her a little.
Shes the waitress here. Didnt you see her?
Jing Zhi had no intention of introducing Xiao Ling to Jing Xi. Instead, he took the opportunity to coax her.Is there anything youd like to eat? Tell me what you want to eat, Dont Starve yourself!
Jing Xi immediately shut her mouth and looked like she was about to go on a hunger strike.
Xiao Ling had never known that Jing Zhi had a sister who was so pretty!
She could tell that the girl was not eating because she was upset, and that Jing Zhi loved his sister very much.
Xiao Ling wanted to help Jing Zhi out of this situation, so she suggested in a low voice,The sweet corn soup here is very popr with children. Maybe ... She will like it.
Okay, one! Jing Zhi said without thinking.
As long as Jing Xi was willing to eat, he would remember Xiao Lings favor!
Im not drinking it!
Jing Xi immediately refused.
For one thing, no matter what Jing Zhi ordered, she was not going to eat it. For another, she didnt know where Xiao Ling came from, and Jing Xi didnt want her to use her to please Jing Zhi.
Chapter 1168
Chapter 1168: Asking for trouble
Trantor: 549690339
Although Jing Xi was young, she was already very mature.
She had grown up with Jing Yichen, who was a far-sighted father, so she knew everything that she should not know.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning would never avoid her when it came to the ways of the world, just because she was a child.
It was not a good thing to let her child live in an innocent environment without any schemes and plots. At least, she should know that there were bad people in the outside world. When she was alone, she had to be careful and not be deceived by others.
I dont want to eat. I want to find brother mu!
Although she didnt know what the rtionship between Jing Zhi and Xiao Ling was, it didnt stop Jing Xi from sabotaging it.
Jing Zhi had forcefully separated her from mu Sen, so she would not let Jing Zhi have an easy time.
Jing Zhi had been coaxing Jing Xi for a long time today, but she refused to eat anything. Of course, he would not leave the restaurant just like that.
Get me a portion of everything thats suitable for children!
my looked at Jing Xi, who was pouting unhappily. She wanted to tell Jing Zhi to order less. They couldnt finish the food and it would be a waste.
But then she remembered that Jing Zhi didnt need money, so she agreed.
All kinds of food were quickly served one by one, all served by Xiao Tong.
When thest dish was served, Jing Xi suddenly turned to Xiao mo and said,Sister, youve worked so hard,e and eat with us!
Jing Zhi looked at her in surprise. She didnt seem to like Xiao Ling just now, but why was she smiling so sweetly at her now?
Jing Zhis intuition told him that there was something fishy about the little girl. He knew Jing Xi too well. She usually had a pair of clear and pure eyes, looking more innocent and lovely than anyone else, but in fact, she was more cunning than anyone else. She would never change her attitude for no reason.
Whats more, Jing Xi had just been throwing a tantrum with him. How could she be fine in the blink of an eye?
Xiao Ling was ttered, but she refused to sit.
She was a waitress, and there were strict rules in the restaurant that she was not allowed to sit down and eat with customers during working hours.
Jing Xi reached out her little white hand and pulled on mys arm. She said with a smile,Sister, why havent I seen you before? Are you one of my second brothers girlfriends? He has too many girlfriends, I cant recognize all of them!
Jing Zhis face turned dark.
He only had one girlfriend, Zheng yuluo. How could there be too many?
Dont talk nonsense. Which eye of yours sees that she looks like my girlfriend?!
Xiao Lings face turned pale. She felt a little upset, but she knew that she had nothing to do with Jing Zhi.
She didnt know how many girlfriends Jing Zhi had, but she wasnt one of them.
Perhaps she once had the chance to be one of them, but she gave up on it.
She forced a smile and said to Jing Xi,Little girl, youve misunderstood. Your second brother and I only know each other, not his girlfriend. Weve ordered so much food, so you must eat more. Its quite nutritious and easy to digest.
Shes not my future second sister-inw!
Jing Xi seemed to be a little disappointed. She let go of mys arm and continued to dig a hole for Jing Zhi.
Second brother, thest time you said you would let a Beauty Bear you a monkey, wasnt it this little Jun-Jie? Could it be sister luoluo? They look a little simr, cant you tell who is who?
Aiya, second brother, you cant be like this. If you like the same type, sister luoluo has a twin sister! Youre not thinking of marrying both sisters, are you? Then you might have to immigrate to another country. We dont allow polygamy here!
AI, poor sister luoluo. She still doesnt know that shes been deceived by you. I have to tell her quickly! I heard that many people like her. She can choose one of them who is handsome and be happy with him!
Sister Jun, dont be fooled by my second brothers looks. Hes actually a yboy. You should leave quickly. Dont be fooled by him!
Jing Zhis face turned green with anger as she rambled on and on.
Why did he bring trouble to himself by bringing Jing Xi to his side?
Wouldnt it be better to throw her to mu Sen and let mu Sen have a headache?
He was almost bing a masochist!
my stood at the side, listening to Jing Xis words in a daze, and her heart gradually became bitter.
Even if Jing Zhi was a yboy, it wasnt her ce to think about him.
They were frompletely different worlds. It was her parents wishful thinking to put her together with Jing Zhi.
Would heck women?
From what this youngdy said, he had many, many women.
Xiao mo turned around silently and was about to leave when she suddenly felt dizzy. Her vision turned ck and she fell to the ground.
Aiya, second brother, your little Jun has fainted! Is she too happy to see you?
Jing Xi shouted as if she was watching a good show, attracting the attention of the surrounding diners. Even the restaurant manager ran over, his fat body trembling.
Jing Zhi frowned. He didnt want to care about Xiao Ling, but he also didnt want the fat and perverted manager to touch her.
Her body had not been in good condition before. Could it be that she had fainted from hunger again?
Working in a restaurant cant be so bad that you cant even eat, right?
Jing Zhi finally carried Xiao Ling out of the restaurant and stuffed her into his car. But when he turned around to look for Jing Xi, he found that Jing Xi was gone!
He panicked and immediately rushed back to the dining room to look for her.
But he had searched the entire restaurant and could not find Jing Xi!
Xixi, where are you? Stop ying ande out!
Jing Zhi ignored everyones gazes and shouted countless times, but the girl was nowhere to be seen.
He ran out of the dining room again, looking for Jing Xi everywhere, without caring about the unconscious Xiao Ling.
However, there was still no sign of Jing Xi.
Jing Zhi was sweating so much that even his shirt was soaked.
If he lost Jing Xi, the consequences would be unimaginable!
He sat in the car and looked at Xiao Ling, who was lying in the back seat, feeling frustrated.
Nothing good everes from her!
If it werent for her, Jing Xi wouldnt have gone missing!
Jing Zhi was afraid that something would happen to Jing Xi. He didnt care if anything would happen to my. If Jing Xi went missing, my would die a hundred times over.
He knew that Jing Xi had been protected in secret, but he didnt dare to call Jing Yichen and ask him if those people had seen Jing Xi.
The only person he could find was Jing Rui.
The longer they waited, the more Jing Xi would be in danger. Jing Zhi could not care less about being scolded by his brother. He called Jing Rui nervously.
Brother, Xixi is gone!
Chapter 1169
Chapter 1169: Listen to you
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui frowned.Havent you been watching her? When did he disappear?
Just now, I ... I was careless for a minute, and she was gone! I had originally brought her out to eat, but she refused to eat and insisted on looking for mu Sen.
Jing Zhi felt a little guilty and his tone was anxious. Shes been gone for half an hour, is she okay? Brother, quickly ask those people who are protecting Xixi. They must know where Xixi went!
Jing Rui was a little annoyed! Which was rare. Why didnt you say so earlier that she was lost for so long! You cant even keep an eye on an eight-year-old girl like her. Ill teach you a lesson when youe back!
He hung up Jing Zhis phone and called Jing Yichen at once.
Dad, ask your men where Xixi is.
Jing Yichen knew immediately that Jing Xi was missing. He was still holding Shangguan nings hand and walking with her in the hot spring Garden.
He was extremely displeased, but he did not show it on his face.
If Shangguan ning knew that Jing Xi was missing, she would definitely go back to the city to look for her.
He said indifferently,Ive only left for half a day and theres already a problem on your side. Youre really promising! Wait, Ill ask!
Jing Yichen hung up the phone. Shangguan ning held his strong arm and asked curiously,Ruirui called? Did something happen?
Jing Yichen turned around and tucked her hair behind her ears. He said in a gentle voice and calm eyes, Its fine, its just a small matter. He just took over some of thepanys business, so its normal for him to have some problems.
He didnt even reveal half a word. His expression was calm, as if nothing had happened.
His principle was that he would bear all the storms. It was best for his wife not to know anything. She only needed to live in the wind and the sun.
Even if Shangguan ning knew the truth, she would just be worried.
Other than making her suffer, there was no other way to help.
Moreover, Jing Xi might not be in trouble. If something really happened to her, the people who were protecting her would definitely have reported it to him.
Shangguan ning had always trusted Jing Yichen. She trusted his ability and his love for her. So she didnt think much of it when he said that it was fine.
She had never expected that Jing Yichen would lose her daughter so soon after he handed her over to his son.
Jing Xi was surrounded by experts, and it was basically impossible to touch her.
Jing Yichen carried Shangguan ning into the vi and put her in the hot spring. He said with a smile,You soak for a while. Im helping my son with some work. Ill be back in a while.
He was too calm, so Shangguan ning didnt suspect him. Sheyfortably in the hot spring and nodded.Go do your work, dont worry about me. However, lets bring Xixi along next time. She loves ying in the water.
She doted on her daughter and Jing Yichen doted on her.Okay, Ill listen to you. Next time, Ill bring Xixi with me.
He bent over and kissed Shangguan nings forehead, then turned around and left with the phone.
Jing Yichen didnt call his men until he was sure that Shangguan ning couldnt hear him.
Wheres Xixi?
Master, young miss got into an unfamiliar vehicle during the chaos. Were chasing after her!
Did you turn on the GPS?
In order to prevent Jing Xi from getting lost, Jing Yichen had put more than one tracking device and emergency device on her.
However, the more advanced the positioning device was, the more it would cause slight radiation and influence on the body, so these devices were usually not always on.
Jing Xi had learned how to use all the tracking devices. It was easy to turn them on. If she were in danger, she would definitely turn them on.
No, miss got in the car of her own ord. The other party didnt let her in.
Jing Yichen let out a sigh of relief.
It was good that he wasnt caught.
There shouldnt be anyone in A city who would dare to touch Jing Xi.
Follow them first. Report to me immediately if anything happens.
Should we bring the youngdy back first?
No need,
Jing Yichen denied.
With Jing Xis intelligence, she rarely suffered losses. She had been safe and sound since she was young, and it was not entirely because of his protection.
More importantly, she was smart and knew what she should and shouldnt do.
Since Jing Xi wanted to run away, he would let her do whatever she wanted. If she really suffered a loss, it would be a good lesson for her to learn, so that she would not mess around.
Jing Yichen hung up the phone and sent a message to his son. An.
A secondter, he received a reply from his son. Mm.
Jing Yichen nced at her, put the phone back into his pocket and walked towards Shangguan ning who was in the hot spring.
Youve settled everything?
Yes.
Jing Yichen nodded slightly, took off his clothes and entered the hot spring. Heid down beside Shangguan ning and started to massage her fingers.
Shangguan ning didnt need to do any household chores and her hands were well-maintained.
Jing Yichen massaged her with essential oil almost every night, so her skin was as smooth as that of a young girl s.
Jing Xi used to say that her mothers hands were as tender as hers, and it was veryfortable to bathe her.
Shangguan ning let Jing Yichen pinch her for a while. Seeing that he was about to fall asleep, she pulled her hand out of his pocket and took out his cell phone.
She knew the password to Jing Yichens phone and unlocked it easily.
Then she went through Jing Yichens contacts and text messages.
When she saw the conversation between Jing Yichen and Jing Rui, she couldnt help but burst intoughter.
Did this father and son have to have such a short conversation?!
Would it kill him to say two more words!
Jing Yichen threw his arms around Shangguan nings waist and said,Ning, you peeked at my cell phone again. I caught you red-handed!
Shangguan ning was startled by his sudden movement, but she didnt feel guilty at all. She said with a smile,Let me see if youve been chatting with other women behind my back! You were so secretive on the phone just now and didnt want to say anything in front of me. Who knows if you were whispering to your little lover?
Its enough to have Jing Xi as a spendthrift. I cant afford to have a little lover.
The little lover in Jing Yichens mouth was totally different from the one in Shangguan ning s.
Everyone said that a daughter was a fathers lover in his previous life, so the little lover he was referring to was his daughter.
Also, Jing Yichen knew that Shangguan ning was not suspecting that he had an affair with another woman. She was suspecting that he and his son had colluded to lie to her.
After all, it wasnt just once or twice that the father and son had teamed up to lie to her. They had done it many times.
He couldnt hide it every time.
Shangguan ning was smart and meticulous. She could always find clues.
She had found out the secret from the messages between him and Jing Rui, so Jing Yichens messages to Jing Rui were very short.
Even if Sherlock Holmes were to appear again, Shangguan ning would never be able to guess the whole story from a single word.

Chapter 1170: Kidnapping
Trantor: 549690339
In fact, Shangguan ning didnt suspect that something had happened to Jing Xi. She had heard Jing Yichen and Jing Rui talking on the phone, but they had hung up after a few words. She had thought that something had happened to Jing Rui.
Usually, when Jing Rui called Jing Yichen, Jing Yichen would ask her to talk to him.
However, there was none today, so she was a little hesitant.
She was relieved when she saw the messages from Jing Yichen and Jing Rui.
Lying in Jing Yichens arms, Shangguan ning said softly, Dont hide anything from me, you must tell me.
Yes, sure.
Jing Yichen agreed without hesitation, but he still felt that he should try to keep it a secret.
Why should he tell her?
To make her worry?
He still preferred Shangguan ning, who was carefree and childlike.
Every time she frowned, his heart would clench and he would feel upset.
Sometimes, it was just a false rm, especially when Jing Xi was a troublemaker. Every time, she would torture others, but she was unharmed. If he told Shangguan ning every time, she would never agree to let Jing Xi go to school.
Yichen, let Ruirui bring his girlfriend to our house for dinner. Lets have a family gathering. I havent seen him in a long time.
Yes, Ive already told him.
Shangguan nings eyes lit up in excitement. Youve met Shuyin? Is she pretty?
Not as pretty as you, Jing Yichen replied calmly.
Shangguan ning smiled.Of course not. I heard from Xixi that Shuyin is a rare beauty.
Our son also said that Shuyin can only be ranked second. Youre the first.
Aiya, its fine if you say this in front of me. You two only know how to coax me. Dont say that in front of Shuyin. You should teach your son so that he will always say that Shuyin is the most beautiful.
Shangguan ning couldnt possiblypete with Shuyin. What she wanted most was for Jing Rui to be happy.
It wouldnt be good if he said that the youngdy was second and made her unhappy.
Jing Yichen said disapprovingly,my wife is the most beautiful. That is a fact. Why should I praise other peoples wives?
Shangguan ning was so angry that sheughed.
She pinched the flesh on his waist and said, not knowing whether tough or cry,What do you mean by someone elses wife? thats your daughter-inw!
Jing Yichen was unmoved.
Except for Shangguan ning, he didnt like anyone else.
Jing Xi was the second, and all the other women looked the same in his eyes.
The couple was having fun in the hot spring when Jing Xi, who was in second ce, identally got into a stolen car.
However, Jing Xi was not afraid. Instead, she was extremely excited!
She hadnt punished anyone for a long time!
He had finally caught a bad guy today, and he could finally torture him ruthlessly!
The bad guy was actually a good guy, but a money tree suddenly popped up in his car. He could not resist the temptation of money and became a bad guy.
Jing Xi jumped into the car when Jing Zhi was carrying my.
It was an ordinary Volkswagen. Jing Xi had begged him to take her to family MUs Hospital, but she had been sitting in the car for more than half an hour, and the man showed no signs of going to family MUs Hospital. Instead, he was driving on a very remote road.
The chauffeur was still pretending to be a good person, and he kept chatting with Jing Xi, trying to get information out of her.
He knew what was good. Jing Xi was dressed in branded goods, and the cartoon Backpack she was carrying was worth more than 100000 Yuan. It was almost enough to buy his Volkswagen.
He had a criminal record of kidnapping in the past, but after making a fortune, he retired and lived a white-cor life.
When he saw the beautiful Jing Xi, his desire to kidnap and ckmail her was immediately aroused again.
He took Jing Xi around in circles.
He had thought that a little girl like her would not know anything. Unfortunately, not only did Jing Xi know, but she also had a strong memory.
She had already memorized the map of A city by heart when she was five years old.
Jing Xi knew exactly which way they were going.
This ce was in apletely different direction from family MUs Hospital.
However, she didnt say a word and let the driver drive her into the ditch.
A ce with fewer people is good. When the car explodes, it wont hurt the innocent!
The little bomb that she had painstakingly developed was not in vain. The jelly Bean virus that she had experimented on herself and developed was not in vain!
It finally came in handy today!
Jing Xi really wanted to learn from the experts on TV and roar at the sky!
Unfortunately, she could only y the role of an ignorant and obedient girl.
Uncle, my stomach hurts. When are you going to send me to the hospital? My mom is waiting for me in the hospital!
Lying without blinking, Jing Xi covered her stomach, as if she wanted to solve her physiological problems in the car.
Xixi, hold on for a while. Were almost there!
Jing Xi had even told him her real name. This way, her acting would be more realistic!
I can t, I can t, Im going to have diarrhea! I want to get out of the car!
Jing Xi rolled around in the back seat, clutching her stomach and screaming non-stop.
The chauffeur had no choice but to take her out of the car. He only had one car, and if Jing Xi were to be in it, it would be so painful that he didnt even dare to imagine it!
Anyway, she was just a little girl. She couldnt escape.
Im going to take off my pants. Uncle, stay away from me! My mom said that Im a girl and I cant let anyone see my butt!
The driver was scolding her in his heart for being a busybody, but he forced a fake smile on his face. Im afraid that you dont know the way and get lost. Dont worry, I wont look at you!
Jing Xi carried her little backpack and walked a little further away. After making sure that she could not be hurt, she gently pressed a small button in her hand.
Then, with a loud bang, the half-new Volkswagen was blown up!
The driver screamed in pain and horror. Just as he was about to check his car, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his leg. Then, he fell to the ground with a plop.
Jing Xi shook her head and sighed heavily. She stepped on the drivers back with her small leather boots, picked up a branch from the ground, and poked the drivers face.
Look at you, you want toe out and kidnap people with such little ability? I really dont feel any sense of aplishment at all for being able to knock you down so easily!
I asked you to take me to family MUs Hospital, but you didnt listen and took this remote road. You caused your car to crash and no one came to save you. Youre done for, arent you?
However, at least you have good taste and know that Im worth a lot of money! Haha, youve brought me so far away, my second brother must be worried! Hmph, hes so anxious that hes trying to separate me from brother mu!
The driver was lying face down on the ground. He was in so much pain that he couldnt move, but he waspletely awake!
He widened his eyes in horror and turned his head to look at Jing Xi. He wanted to know what kind of monster he had encountered!
Chapter 1171
Chapter 1171: Do you want to take a bath with me?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi was satisfied to see the fear in the drivers eyes.
Did she think that she could be fooled just because she was a child?
If this man was not taught a lesson, he would definitely harm more children in the future.
Jing Xi rolled around on the ground, dirtying her beautiful dress.
Then, she ran to the burning car and carefully put a few strands of her hair into the fire.
With a sizzling sound, his hair caught on fire!
Jing Xi was shocked. She quickly took back her hand and blew out the fire.
Her long hair was burnt, but Jing Xi didnt feel bad at all. She even wiped some dust from the ground and rubbed it on her face and body.
This time, she hadpletely turned into a disheveled little girl who had escaped from death.
She carried her small backpack and ran back to the drivers side. She sat on the ground and looked at the drivers pale face.How is it? it doesnt feel good, right? I injected a little virus into you, so you wont die, but youll definitely be better off dead!
The driver was in so much pain that he couldnt speak. He didnt know what the girl had injected into him, but he felt that his bone marrow was in extreme pain!
He was filled with regret. He must have been blind to want to kidnap this little devil today!
He looked like an angel, but he was actually a demon in the coat of an Angel!
Were all the children these days intelligent?
Had the era of using a lollipop to swindle a child passed?
Jing Xi rested her chin on her hands and sighed like a little adult.This ce is so remote. There are no cars passing by. How can I find my brother mu?
She sat there and waited. She waited until the driver fainted from the pain and was woken up by it, but there was still no car passing by.
She was a little hungry, so she took out some chocte from her backpack and started eating.
After a while, she felt thirsty again. So she took out the bottle of fruit juice that Shangguan ning had given her this morning and started to drink.
As she ate and drank, she couldnt help but sigh,mom is still the best!
Her mother would never lose her. She was always afraid that she would be hungry or thirsty, so she would always fill her backpack with food before going out. She would also always nag her to be careful.
She was starting to miss her mother.
The sky quickly darkened, and the ck night sky was full of stars, bringing a kind of hazy and mysterious beauty.
Jing Xi stomped her feet in anger after enjoying the beautiful night sky. Didnt her father send people to protect her?
Where is he?
Why didnt anyone care about her?
The people who were in charge of Jing Xis safety wanted to stop her, but Jing Yichen had said that no one was allowed to interfere unless Jing Xis life was in danger.
All his men knew that Jing Yichen was taking the opportunity to punish his daughter so that she would not be so reckless again.
Jing Xi did regret it.
After all, she was still young and inexperienced. She always felt that she would not meet any bad people, so she jumped into someone elses car without any scruples.
She also knew that she had been too reckless today, but she was not willing to bow her head easily, so she resisted in the dark.
Fortunately, her luck wasnt too bad. A car passed by and saw her in the middle of the road, covered in dust. It stopped and took her away.
The bad guys were still in the minority, and there were more good guys.
The driver was a middle-aged man. Seeing Jing Xis appearance, he was shocked and quickly asked for her home address, wanting to send her back.
Jing Xis eyes lit up and she gave the address of family MUs Hospital.
The uncle sent Jing Xi to the hospital, but mu Sen was not there.
Jing Xi gave him the address of mu Sen apartment, and the uncle took her to an apartment next to family MUs Hospital.
Mu Sen opened the door and was shocked to see Jing Xis face, which was barely visible.
When Jing Xi saw her family, she immediately burst into tears.
Brother mu, someone has kidnapped me! It was this uncle who saved me and sent me back!
Mu Sen was shocked and angry, but he immediately thanked the middle-aged man.
The uncle waved his hands. When did he save Jing Xi? He didnt even know about the kidnapping!
When they were in the car just now, Jing Xi refused to say anything, only an address!
The uncle sent her off and left very quickly.
Mu Sen sat on the sofa in the living room with Jing Xi in his arms and wiped her face.
When they parted at noon, Jing Xi was still a beautiful little princess. But at night, she had be a homeless child!
How did Jing Zhi take care of the child?
Xixi, who kidnapped you? Dont cry, big brother will take revenge for you!
His white pajamas were stained with the dirt and dust from Jing Xis body, and it soon became dirty.
But mu Sen did not mind at all. He did not care about his clothes at this time. He only wanted to cut the person who kidnapped Jing Xi into pieces!
Jing Xi kept crying and didnt say anything other than brother mu.
Mu Sen thought that she was frightened and did not dare to ask.
He called Jing Rui with Jing Xi in his arms.
To her surprise, Jing Rui was unusually calm and cold, as if the person who was kidnapped was not his own sister.
Mu Sen was suspicious. Everyone in the Jing family treated Jing Xi like a treasure, and Jing Rui was no exception. Why was he so calm now?
However, he quickly threw his doubts to the back of his mind. He didnt need to get involved in this matter at all. The Jing family would definitely not let Jing Xi suffer.
All he had to do was to make Jing Xi happy.
She was dirty and needed a shower.
Mu Sen carried Jing Xi into the bathroom. Jing Xi sobbed, but looked at mu Sen with hopeful eyes.Brother mu, do you want to take a bath with me?
Mu Senughed at her words.
What was this little girl thinking!
If he took a bath with her, Jing Rui and Jing Zhi would definitely break his legs.
Although she was only eight years old, she was still a little girl. It was impossible for mu Sen to take a bath naked in front of her!
He and mu duo were biological siblings, but they had taken separate baths since they were very young.
Mu Sen squatted down and touched Jing Xis head.Xixi, can you wash yourself? Big brother cant take a shower with you, youre a girl!
Jing Xi was a little disappointed, but she also felt embarrassed.
She nodded.I can shower by myself. But I dont have any clothes to wear.
Its okay. You can wear mine tonight. Ill buy you a new one tomorrow.
Mu Sen heaved a sigh of relief. Family Jing had always been strict about childrens independence. He had been worried that Jing Xi would not be able to take a bath by herself, but it seemed that Jing Yichen had not rxed his expectations of her, even though she was a girl.
Mu Sen washed Jing Xis hair first, then prepared a bath for her and let her take a bath alone.
Ten minutester, Jing Xi came out of the bathroom, wrapped in a big bath towel and barefooted.Brother mu, What should I wear?
Chapter 1172
Chapter 1172: The Dao is one foot higher, the devil is ten feet higher
Trantor: 549690339
In fact, mu Sen was also struggling with what to wear for Jing Xi. He only had his clothes in his apartment, but every piece was very big.
He found a short-sleeved T-shirt and handed it to Jing Xi.Just make do with it for one night. Ill buy you a pretty one tomorrow!
Jing Xi did not feel like putting up with it at all. She was very happy to be able to wear mu Sens clothes.
She was happier than secretly wearing her mothers high heels at home!
She took the clothes and ran to the bathroom to change. Then, she ran to the living room happily.Brother mu, do I look good?
Mu Sen couldnt stopughing. His clothes were so big on Jing Xi that they could be used as a dress!
He picked Jing Xi up in his arms and led her to the bedroom.Its good! Xixi looks good in anything!
Really?
Jing Xis eyes lit up and she said happily,Then Im going to wear it every day!
Mu Sen touched her head affectionately and thought to himself,shes still a child. She forgot about the kidnapping in a short while. One piece of clothing can make her happy for half a day.
Jing Xis hair was wet. Mu Sen put her on the bed and carefully dried her hair.
Seeing that a lot of her hair was actually burnt, he suddenly felt a little distressed.
He didnt know how dangerous it was, but his hair was burnt!
He found a pair of scissors and helped Jing Xi cut off the burnt hair, then coaxed her to sleep.
Jing Xi leaned into mu Sens arms, too excited to fall asleep.
She was afraid that mu Sen would leave, so she grabbed his clothes tightly and pretended to be afraid. She said pitifully,Brother mu, dont go. Im scared!
If it were Jing Rui, he would have scoffed at his sisters words.
She was afraid?
She was simply not afraid of anything!
There was no one on earth who could stop her!
But mu Sen did not know!
He thought that Jing Xi was really scared, so he patted her back and coaxed her,Dont be afraid, Im not leaving. Sleep!
Jing Xi closed her eyes obediently, but her hands were not.
She touched here and there, as if she was curious about every part of mu Sens body!
Her small hands were soft and tender. When they touched his skin, it brought a beautiful touch.
At first, mu Sen did not feel anything, butter, his body actually had a reaction!
He felt that he was worse than a beast!
Xixi, dont move!
Mu Sens voice had a rare solemness to it, and it was no longer as warm and gentle as before.
Jing Xi did not understand why Mu Sen had such a big reaction. No matter how much she knew, she could not understand that a man could not be indifferent to such a touch.
Her small hand was caught by mu Sen and she could not move. She could only lie down in a daze.
After all, she was still young. After a long day, she finally felt tired and fell asleep.
Mu Sen immediately got up as soon as Jing Xi fell asleep.
He went to take a cold shower and then slept on the sofa for the night.
When Jing Xi woke up the next day, she found that mu Sen was not by her side.
She ran to the living room barefooted and saw a brand-new dress on the sofa.
The fragrance of porridge wafted out from the kitchen. Mu Sen was already preparing breakfast.
Jing Xi happily changed into her dress and put on Mu Qings big slippers. She went into the kitchen.Brother mu, thank you!
She looked up with her pink face, her voice crisp and tender, like the most beautiful flower bud in early spring, slowly blooming with morning dew.
The dress that mu Sen had bought for her was light pink, which made her look even more delicate and beautiful.
This little girl was already so pretty at such a young age. Who knew how beautiful she would be when she grew up!
Mu Sen had a sense of pride as an older brother. Mu duo had been disobedient since she was young. Now, he finally had a well-behaved and beautiful sister!
You dont need to thank your brother!
Mu Sen took the te with one hand, and then picked Jing Xi up with the other. Heughed and said,Lets go and have breakfast!
Brother mu, Ill live with you in the future! I think your ce is good!
Mu Sen did not feel good at all!
His apartment used to have two bedrooms, but one of them had been changed into a study by him, so there was only one bedroom left.
If Jing Xi slept in the bedroom, he would have to sleep on the sofa. He could sleep for a day or two, but he couldnt stand it for a long time!
You cane and y, but you cant stay here. Ive already called your brother. Helle and take you home after you finish your breakfast.
Mu Sen did not lie to Jing Xi, but told the truth.
Jing Xi was a little unhappy, but then she thought that even if mu Sen agreed, his family would not.
She pouted and began to eat unwillingly.
If she did not stay here to watch, what would happen if mu Sen had a girlfriend?
Jing Xi looked at her small body and suddenly felt a little discouraged.
How could he fight with those mature women with his looks?
Could it be that she could only pick a little kid who was simr to her?
She had to eat more! Quickly grow up!
Jing Rui came to take his sister home at the agreed time. Seeing her safe and sound, he nodded to mu Sen.Many thanks!
No, Xixi is my sister. Its my duty to take care of her.
Mu Sen touched Jing Xis head and said with a smile,Go home with your brother. Be careful and dont run around.
Jing Xi said goodbye to him reluctantly. When she got into Jing Ruis car, she immediatelyined,Brother, second brother is only flirting with women. He doesnt want me anymore!
Jing Rui had wanted to give his sister a scolding, but she was the one whoined about him first, and he had forgotten what he had wanted to say.
Ive already given your second brother a good beatingst night. His woman is still lying in the hospital. Do you have anything else you want to tell me?
Anything else?
Jing Xi looked at Jing Rui guiltily and said,I was almost taken away by the bad guys, why didnt you save me!
You have so many abilities, do you still need me?
Others might not know how smart Jing Xi was, but Jing Rui did.
This girl must not be treated like an eight-year-old child!
He looked at Jing Xi coldly and said,If you dare to slip away again, youre not allowed to go out and y anymore! Also, youre not allowed to use the virus on other people. Xiao Lings body is already weak, and your virus is enough to keep her in bed for a month!
It turned out that her brother knew everything!
Jing Xi leaned against the back of the car seat helplessly. She was no match for her brother.
Brother, arent you busy dating? Dont worry about me in the future, dont dy your marriage!
Are you concerned about my marriage, or are you concerned about your own marriage?
You saw through that? Jing Xi was stunned.
Stay away from mu Sen, he cant do it! Youre only eight years old. Its not toote to think about marriage after youre eighteen!
Chapter 1173
Chapter 1173: That will be your home in the future
Trantor: 549690339
Cant I choose one now? I think brother mu is a good man. I want to marry him in the future!
Jing Xis tone was firm. It seemed that she would not marry anyone else but mu Sen.
Jing Rui was having a headache. Although many children were in love at an early age, Jing Xi was still too young!
You and mu Sen are close rtives. Im sure youre well aware of the consequences of marriage between rtives. You are not allowed to see mu Sen again in the future!
Jing Rui immediately put out the fire in his sisters heart.
At Jing Xis age, she didnt know what love was, let alone what the word marriage meant.
She probably just simply liked mu Sens sunshine and thoughtfulness.
At the moment, she did not have any special feelings for mu Sen, but when she grew up, that might not be the case.
So Jing Rui felt that it was better to cut off Jing Xis thoughts.
Would Jing Xi be short of outstanding men in the future?
It won t!
She was the Pearl of family Jing and her suitors could line up from earth to Mars.
As long as he was alive and the Jing family was still around, Jing Xi would always be safe and sound.
Jing Xi didnt care about Jing Ruis ban at all. She thought it would be easy for her to y with mu Sen.
But the next day, she realized that if Jing Rui did not want her to do anything, there would be countless obstacles. It was impossible for her to meet mu Sen.
Forget it, forget it. She would look for mu Sen in a few days. She still felt that it was more interesting to follow Shuyin in her Virus Research!
Jing Zhi was grounded by Jing Rui for a week. He was forced to stay in his vi and was not allowed to see anyone.
Jing Zhi hated my to the core. He didnt know that my had fainted because Jing Xi had poisoned her. He thought that she had fainted from hunger again.
He gritted his teeth and made up his mind. As soon as he was released from the house arrest, he would immediately send Xiao Ling far away and never appear in city A again!
Every time she appeared, he would be in trouble!
She was a true-blue jinx!
Xiao Ling didnt know that Jing Zhi had cklisted her. She had been infected by the virus and was weak and powerless.
The virus in her body could only be removed by Shuyin and Peter. The two of them worked together to draw Xiao Lings blood for testing and then kept injecting her with the medicine.
Xiao Ling did not pay much attention to Peter. She was just staring at Shu Yin in a daze.
She had never seen such a beautiful woman!
She was like a fairy who didnt eat fireworks. She was cold and didnt like to talk, but every time she opened her mouth, her voice was pleasant to the ear.
Shuyin had been busy and fulfilling recently. Furthermore, with Peters arrival in city A, her mood had clearly improved.
When Jing Rui drove her home in the evening, he saw her smiling and asked,What happy thing happened?
Shuyin smiled.No, its just that I like my current life. I feel that everything is just right. Its even better than what I imagined!
Do you want to be better?
Shuyin immediately shook her head.No need. This is enough!
Jing Rui sighed helplessly.You have enough, but I haven t. Besides, my mom has always wanted to see you. Ill bring you home tomorrow!
Shuyin subconsciously avoided it,isnt that too fast? After some time!
No, tomorrow! Jing Rui grabbed her hand.
But I havent prepared any gifts for your parents!
Ive already prepared everything. I dont need you to prepare anything!
But I dont have any clothes to wear. I should be more formal when I see them.
Im ready too. Theres a lot of them. You can choose whatever you want!
I ...
Its decided! My parents areing back from the hot spring Vi tomorrow, and we can take Xixi with us!
Jing Rui made the decision in a domineering manner. He would not feel at ease until he brought Shuyin home.
After meeting his parents, the matter was officially settled. The engagement and marriage were only natural.
Shuyin bit her lip and could only ept it.
It was time for her to visit Jing Ruis parents.
After a nervous night, Shuyins eyes were a little green when she woke up the next day.
Fortunately, the meeting time was at noon, so she still had enough time to pack up.
After Shuyin washed up, she opened her closet and was instantly stunned by the clothes inside!
She had thought that Jing Rui was just joking when he said that he had prepared clothes for her. She did not expect that he had really prepared so many clothes for her.
There were all sorts of colors and styles, and they were all bought ording to her figure.
Shuyin opened the shoe cab again. As expected, there were all kinds of shoes inside!
At this moment, she really felt like she was being financially supported by a rich man!
It was too extravagant!
She suddenlyughed and thought that living with Jing Rui would be a better life.
A pair of arms reached out from behind her and hugged her.
You like it?
Shuyin turned her head slightly and looked at Jing Ruis perfect profile. She said softly,Too many!
Not much. Your boyfriend has plenty of money. You dont have to save for me. When you go to my house, youll know that this is nothing. My dad is the real prodigal. As long as he thinks it suits my mom, hell definitely buy it home!
Shuyin had heard about his parents from Jing Rui more than once. She was a little envious, but she also yearned for it.
It was the most beautiful thing for two people to be in love for a lifetime and walk hand in hand for a lifetime!
She turned around and buried her face in Jing Ruis chest.I suddenly feel like going to your house!
It was rare for Shuyin to be so gentle and loving. Jing Rui couldnt help but hold her tightly and whisper in her ear,Yinyin, that will be your home in the future! My mom will like you very much!
Shangguan ning had been urging Jing Yichen to go back tondscapepound from the hot spring Vi.
Our son is bringing his girlfriend home today. We have to hurry home and prepare!
Shangguan ning was a little nervous and full of expectation. She felt that she had to leave a good impression on this girl.
She knew that Shuyin didnt have parents, so she wanted Shuyin to feel the warmth of a family.
She had been telling Jing Yichen to be gentle when he saw Shuyin sincest night, and not to scare her with his cold attitude.
Jing Yichen didnt know whether tough or cry. Rx, everything in the house has been prepared, you dont need to do anything.
Shangguan ning didnt know how to cook or do housework. She had been too nervous because all the domestic affairs were taken care of by the servants.
I need to change my clothes. The color is too bright. I dont want to beughed at.
Jing Yichens eyes turned cold,who would dare? Youre already very beautiful, you dont need to change!
Then should I do some makeup and hair? Otherwise, youll look dispirited.
No need! You look the best without makeup!
Shangguan ning couldnt help butugh.When I be an olddy, will you also think that I am the most beautiful? she asked.
Jing Yichen spat out a word,Yes!

Jing Rui arrived at his house with Shuyin at around 11 pm.
Shuyin had been very nervous, but the moment she saw Shangguan ning, she forgot all about it.
Shangguan ning was too young!
She looked more like Jing Ruis sister than a mother of two.
Shuyin was stunned for a while until Jing Rui squeezed her hand and motioned for her to call for someone. She hesitated and called out,aunt.
She felt that calling Shangguan ning Auntie made her sound old.
Shangguan ning was wearing a bright orange dress and a white cardigan. She didnt have any makeup on, but her skin was so fair that not a single wrinkle could be seen.
Her long ck hair fell softly over her shoulders, like the best silk, shining with a faint luster.
She exuded an elegant and gentle temperament from head to toe. There was a smile on her beautiful face, and she had the vitality and freshness of a young man.
Shuyin felt that if she had met Shangguan ning on the street, she would never have thought that she was Jing Ruis mother.
Shuyin looked at Shangguan ning in a daze, which made Jing Yichen happy.
He took a look at his wife and felt that Shangguan ning was indeed the most beautiful. Shuyin was stunned as soon as she arrived.
Shangguan ning also knew that Shuyin was surprised at her young age, because she had seen such a scene many times.
Many people thought that it was normal for her to have a daughter as old as Jing Xi. No one would have thought that she had a 20-year-old son.
She took the gift from Shuyin with a smile and handed it to Jing Yichen. Then she pulled Shuyin into the living room and sat down.
Its Yinyins first time at home, so dont be shy. Just treat it as your own home! Later, Ruirui will show you around. Our house is quite big!
Jing Xi also joined in the fun and said with a smile,Our house is big. You and brother can stay here tonight!
She wanted to call Shuyin sister-inw, but she was worried that it would make Shuyin embarrassed if she called her that in front of the whole family. In the end, she held back.
Shuyin was indeed a little embarrassed. She touched Jing Xis head and smiled at Shangguan ning.Auntie, youre so young and beautiful!
Shangguan ning smiled happily. Before she could say anything, Jing Rui interrupted her. Itd be a wonder if shes not young. My dad takes care of everything at home, so she doesnt have to worry about anything. Even her daughter is now being taken care of by my son. All she does every day is y basketball, do her beauty, and travel.
Shangguan ning red at her son.Go talk to your dad in the study room. Dont stand here, Im dizzy!
Jing Ruiughed and shook his head. Yinyins only been here for a day!
He nodded to Shuyin and followed Jing Yichen to the study.
Jing Yichen looked much gentler than thest time he saw Shuyin. Jing Rui knew that it must be because of his mother.
However, this was only rtive. When he didnt speak, he still looked cold.
After the two men left, the living room seemed to immediately be much more rxed.
Shuyin was a bit scared of Jing Yichen. She didnt know where to put her hands and feet under his cold stare.
Women always had a lot to talk about, and Shangguan ning and Shuyin both wanted to make each other like them more, so they soon started to talk about it.
Coupled with Jing Xis asional childs talk, the atmosphere became rxed and pleasant.
Half an hourter, Jing Rui and Jing Yichen came out of the study and heard the three of themughing in the living room.
Lunch was already prepared in the kitchen, and they went to the dining room to eat.
The family had never had the habit of eating without speaking, so they had a happy and harmonious meal.
When Shuyin left in the afternoon, she had already talked to Shangguan ning about everything.
Your parents are very nice and have a good rtionship. Its rare!
Shuyin couldnt help but sigh when they returned to Jing Ruis Vi.
Jing Rui rested his head on Shuyinsp, feeling veryfortable.
Our rtionship will be very good too. Youll know just by looking at how my dad treats my mom. Ill treat you the same way in the future.
His parents had never really quarreled in their lives.
For one thing, Shangguan ning was not the kind of woman who would throw a tantrum. She was content with what she had. For another, no matter what happened, Jing Yichen would always bow down to his wife and put her in his arms.
Jing Rui hadughed at his father for being a henpecked husband when he was a child. He had only realized after he grew up that it was not that his father was afraid of his mother, but that he loved her enough.
His gentleness, tolerance, pampering, and concession reflected a mans breadth of mind and the attitude that a husband should have.
Jing Rui hoped that he and Shuyin would not have any quarrels in the future, and that they would only have love.
Shuyin wasnt someone who liked to make a fuss. She was very rational and didnt have any ambitions. She liked children and stability, so she was a very Good Wife candidate.
Shuyin had witnessed how much Jing Yichen loved his wife.
She was extremely shocked. She had never thought that the cold Jing Yichen could have such a gentle and considerate side.
If Jing Rui was really like him, then his future life would be wonderful.
Shu Yins fingers touched Jing Ruis face gently, subconsciously tracing his perfect facial outline.
I believe you, she said softly.
Jing Rui caught her soft hands and kissed them.When are we getting engaged? You pick a day, Ill prepare!
This ... Isnt this a little too fast?
Shuyin always felt that it was not real. How did she be Jing Ruis girlfriend?
They could spend the rest of their lives together?
Would she have another person in her life from now on?
She was a little uneasy and nervous for some reason.
Its not fast at all. The engagement will take at least a month to prepare.
Jing Rui felt that it was already very slow. Every time he got close to Shuyin, he had the urge to turn her into his woman.
Shuyin didnt say anything. She didnt know what to say.
She would miss Jing Rui unconsciously when she could not see him, and she would feel empty when he was not by her side.
Jing Rui didnt need Shuyins response. As long as she didnt object too much, he would take it as an agreement.
However, he finally realized that this could be considered as him proposing to Shuyin!
This was too informal!
No wonder Shuyin was hesitating!
Jing Rui reflected on himself and went to order a diamond ring and roses the next day.
Shuyin, on the other hand, didnt notice the problem of whether it was formal or not. She had never attended a wedding or an engagement before, and she didnt even know much about marriage proposals.
She used to live in a cage and was almost isted from the world. The Research Instituteswork had ess restrictions, so she couldnt see everything as she pleased.
Therefore, she didnt have a clear concept of a proposal.
She never cared about the formalities, as long as the person she was engaged to was Jing Rui.
Chapter 1175
Chapter 1175: Marriage proposal

Shuyin only stayed at Jing Ruis Vi for two days before she went back to the hotel.
Firstly, the vi was a little far from University of X and family MUs Hospital, so it was inconvenient for her to get up early to go to school or go to work.
Secondly, Jing Ruis gaze on her was getting more and more intense, as if he wanted to swallow her whole. Shuyin was so scared that she did not dare to live with him anymore.
However, Shuyin could not get rid of Jing Rui even though she was staying in a hotel.
Jing Rui did not stop her from staying wherever she wanted to. He would just follow her.
He only had one request, and that was to stay in the best hotel.
All the top hotels in A city belonged to family Jing and Shuyin couldnt escape from him.
Chasing Shuyin was one of Jing Ruis greatest joys in life. After a busy day at work, Shuyin was his warmest and most peaceful harbor.
He entered the hotel with arge bouquet of roses and took the elevator to the luxury suite on the top floor.
He was dressed in a ck custom-made suit, a spotless white shirt, and a pair of shiny handmade leather shoes. His hair was not messy at all. He stood under the crystal Light in the living room of the suite, emitting a more dazzling light than the crystal Light!
Shuyin hugged her book and looked at him in a daze.
Dont you recognize me, baby?Jing Rui smiled.
Treasure?
Shuyin blinked. She wasnt used to her new form of address, but she liked it a little.
Youre too handsome, youre dazzling my eyes.
Oh, Im sorry. I shouldnt be so handsome.
When he spoke, he exuded charm all the time, making Shuyins heart beat faster.
No, you should be this handsome. I like it!
She put down the book, stood up and walked to Jing Rui, reaching out for the beautiful rose.
Jing Rui pulled his hand back slightly, and Shu Yins hand missed.
Didnt you buy it for me?Shuyin looked at him, puzzled.
Jing Rui lowered his head and bit her red lips.Yes, but I didnt give it to you like this.
He kissed her lightly and with great control, but Shuyin was not satisfied.
Why did he stop kissing her on purpose every time she wanted to kiss him deeply?
Yesterday, he had hugged her and kissed her so passionately that he almost ate her up. Today, he had be a gentleman again!
Prince of a hundred faces?
Seeing Shuyin pursing her lips, Jing Rui knew that she was reluctant to part with the kiss.
He was suddenly in a good mood. He put one hand around Shu Yins waist, lowered his head, and continued to kiss her.
Their breaths were intertwined, and even their heartbeats seemed to be in sync.
After a long time, Jing Rui let go of Shu Yin and knelt on the carpet in front of her shocked eyes. He held the flowers in one hand and took out a ring from his suit pocket with the other.
Yinyin, Im here to propose to you today. Will you marry me?
His passion was still lingering between her lips and teeth, and Shu Yin waspletely intoxicated by his gentle and firm gaze.
She did not expect Jing Rui to propose. She had been wondering why Jing Rui had bought her flowers today.
Didnt they already discuss the engagement?
At this moment, anything said would destroy the beautiful atmosphere, except for those two ssic words.
Im willing!
Shuyin blushed and looked at Jing Rui, trying to help him up.
Such an indomitable man who could shake the world was kneeling in front of her on one knee. She felt so much pressure!
In her heart, he had always been as noble as a Prince, high up in the air. He should ept everyones respect and admiration.
Jing Rui didnt follow Shuyins hand. In his life, he would only kneel to his parents and elders, and the only person he would kneel to was Shuyin.
He remembered that Jing Yichen had once said that it was right to bow down in front of his woman.
If you dont bend down, how are you going to help her tie her shoces?
Shes shorter than you, how are you going to kiss her if you dont lower your head?
If she wanted to propose, even if she had ten thousand taels of gold, kneeling on the ground was also a blessing, as long as she agreed.
From now on, shes your woman. Shell give birth to your children and take care of your trivial matters. Its reasonable for her to kneel and propose.
Jing Rui put the diamond ring on Shuyins ring finger and kissed it before he got up slowly.
He handed the Rose to Shuyin and said with a smile,Baby, the flowers are yours now. Of course, Im Yours too!
Shuyin felt like she was wrapped in boundless happiness.
Her tears fell unexpectedly and fell on the red rose petals, forming drops of crystal-clear water droplets, which were extremely beautiful.
Jing Rui had never seen Shuyin cry ever since he met her.
No matter what happened, even when her life was threatened by Zishan and Lucas, she had never cried.
Thest time she had broken up with him, she had not cried.
But now, she was crying!
Jing Rui kissed the tears on her face through the fragrant roses.
Her tears were slightly cold, just like her, with a special kind of coldness that made people want to warm her up.
You said it yourself. Youre mine. You cant abandon me in the future. You cant be fierce to me. You can only be good to me!
Jing Rui stroked her long hair and said in a low voice,Alright, Ill agree to everything. However, you must also promise that from now on, no matter what happens, you cant leave me.
Shuyin felt that she had no reason to leave Jing Rui. He was overthinking!
Where else could she find such a gentle, considerate, handsome, noble, and rich boyfriend?
She sat down on the sofa with Jing Rui and put the big bouquet of roses on the white marble table. Then she leaned into Jing Ruis arms and looked at her diamond ring under the light.
Under the crystal chandelier, the diamond that symbolized eternal love emitted a dazzling light.
The diamond was crystal clear, extremely pure, and exquisitely polished. The craftsmans divine work had given this diamond an immortal soul.
Although Shuyin didnt know much about diamonds and had never liked them before, she still knew that this diamond ring was priceless.
The diamond was beautiful, and it was a gift from Jing Rui.
This was the first essory he had given her, and it was also a treasure.
The meaning was extraordinary, and Shuyin couldnt bear to part with it.
She finally understood why all women liked jewelry.
She remembered that her mother used to love luxurious jewelries. Almost all of her money was spent on gemstones that could neither be eaten nor worn.
After she died, she didnt know who benefited from those things.
When Shuyin was sent to the Research Institute, she didnt bring anything of value with her.
She suspected that all of her mothers belongings had fallen into Lucass hands.
Shuyin had no intention of asking Lucas for it. She only wanted the diamond that Jing Rui had given her.
Seeing that Shuyin was fiddling with the diamond ring, Jing Rui couldnt help but ask,You like it?
Before he bought it, he was actually very worried that Shuyin wouldnt like it, so he took a long time to choose.
Chapter 1176
Chapter 1176: Wrong form of address
Trantor: 549690339
I like it! Its very beautiful!
Shuyins voice was clearly filled with joy.
But, this diamond is so big, will it be stolen if I bring it out?
Jing Rui held her slender fingers and said,How dare he snatch my womans engagement ring? is he tired of living?
The words my woman had a different meaning when they came out of Jing Ruis mouth. Shuyins heart trembled when she heard it, and she felt as if she had really be his.
Being protected by a strong man, Shuyin felt that she was turning into a little woman.
She raised her head and kissed Jing Ruis perfect chin. She smiled and said, Ill allow you to sleep with me in the hotel tonight!
Sleep with you?
Jing Ruis dark eyes lit up. Im happy to help you with this!
Ill sleep on the bed, you sleep on the carpet!
Yinyin, youre willing to let me sleep on the carpet?
How about ... You sleep on the bed and I sleep on the carpet?
I cant bear to let you sleep on the carpet. I want you to sleep beside me.
That wont do. I have to keep a certain distance from you. Before we get married, I have to sleep alone. Otherwise, Ill get pregnant easily!
Jing Rui couldnt help but burst outughing.
Shu Yin, who was as pure as a piece of white paper, actually said such words. It was really rare!
She probably didnt even know how to get pregnant!
Cultivating an embryo through experiments and naturally conceiving an embryo were twopletely different things!
She was unparalleled in her experiments, and natural conception ... She had Zero Foundation.
Well only know if I can get pregnant after trying. Were both infected by the virus. We need to try different positions to have children, dont you think so?
As Jing Rui spoke, his hands started to move. He touched Shuyins thigh for a moment, then unbuttoned her shirt and tried to get in.
Shuyin was already very familiar with his movements. His hand had just touched her clothes when she caught it, not letting him go deep.
Dont move, were talking about serious business!
I think theres nothing more important than trying to give birth to the next generation of corrections!
Shuyin was helpless. She couldnt win against him in this kind of matter. Who could be as thick-skinned as him and say that kind of thing as if it was only natural?
She got out of Jing Ruis arms and refused to sit with him.
You can go back now. Ive decided to stay in the hotel alone tonight!
She wanted to chase him away so quickly?
He really had no conscience!
Jing Rui stood up and started to take off his clothes in front of Shuyin.
He took off his suit jacket and began to unbutton his shirt, one button at a time.
Shu Yin jumped and stuttered,You, you, you ... What are you doing?
Im a little hot.
I can help you turn on the air conditioner!
Thats a waste of electricity! This was family Jings hotel, and they should save as much as they could. Its more environmentally friendly and convenient to take off your clothes.
Jing Rui had already taken off his shirt, revealing his firm and sexy chest.
He had been working out all this time, and the lines of his muscles were very smooth. His pecs and abdominal muscles were very obvious. Shu Yin only took one look at him and immediately closed her eyes, not daring to look at him again.
Seeing Shuyins face turn from white to red, Jing Rui smiled and walked up to her, holding her in his arms.
Shu Yins body trembled and she said in a low voice,Let me go.
Jing Rui had no intention of letting go. He stroked Shuyins back slowly and said in a low and sexy voice,Yinyin, youre too beautiful. I cant help but want to eat you.
Shuyiny on his chest and bit him hard when she heard him.
She was a little afraid, afraid of the unknown.
She felt that her rtionship with Jing Rui was already very good, and she wanted to keep it as it was.
Jing Rui had no intention of asking for Shuyin today. He knew that Shuyin was not ready yet. In fact, he was a little nervous himself.
He hoped that he could give Shuyin a beautiful and unforgettable first time.
A melodious ringtone sounded. Jing Rui didnt want to answer it, but the ringtone kept ringing. He had to let go of Shuyin reluctantly. He turned around, picked up the shirt on the carpet, and put it on. Then he answered the phone.
Jing Yichens low and indifferent voice came from the phone.Busy?
Yes! Jing Rui said through gritted teeth.
Jing Yichen, who was on the other side of the phone, knew what was going on. He didnt feel that he was interrupting his son andughed out loud.
Dad, Im hanging up if youugh at me again! Jing Rui said angrily.
Jing Yichen didnt take his sons threat seriously. He was still smiling.
Jing Rui couldnt take it anymore and finally hung up Jing Yichens phone.
On the other end of the phone, Jing Yichen said to the curious Shangguan ning,Ning, our son has grown into an adult!
Shangguan ning didnt understand what he wasughing about. He had only said two words to Jing Rui on the phone, so why was he so happy?
Ruirui has long grown up, I know!
Shangguan ning didnt think about it in any other way. Jing Rui had always been mature and she had already treated him as an adult.
Jing Yichen didnt exin much to his wife. He dialed his sons number again, but no one picked up.
This brats wings have hardened now. He doesnt even dare to pick up my calls! He was angry and amused at the same time.
Shangguan ning looked at her son and said,who was the one who made the call just now? he didnt say anything but kept smiling. If it were me, I wouldnt ept it either!
Jing Yichen had no choice but to send a message to Jing Rui, telling him that he had something urgent to tell him.
Jing Rui was still angry and ignored him.
However, Shuyin couldnt stand it anymore and reminded him,He must have something urgent to tell you. Call him back!
Jing Rui put his arms around her waist and said,Ill call him back after you help me put on my clothes!
Shuyin red at him.You called your father back. What does that have to do with me?
Of course it does. If you dont help me put it on, I wont return your calls today! And I wont call him back in the future. If dad asks, Ill say that you didnt let me call back!
This person was simply inhumane when he was overbearing and rascally!
Shuyin bit her lip and helped Jing Rui get dressed. She buttoned his shirt and adjusted his sleeves and cor.
Is that enough, young master?
It felt good to be served by Shuyin, and Jing Rui felt that they were like a young couple now.
No, no, no, thats not the right way to address me. You should call me hubby!
Shuyin wouldnt call him that. That was too ... Mushy!
Youre not calling?
I won t!
You dont have to call me that, but you have to kiss me!
Hes pushing it!
I won t!
If you dont kiss me, I wont call dad back. Then, tell him that its because you dont want to kiss me, so Im not in the mood to call him back!

Chapter 1177: The proud father and son
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin waspletely defeated by Jing Rui!
What did his phone call with Jing Yichen have to do with her?
Could he be any more thick-skinned?
The phone was still ringing, reminding them that Jing Yichen was looking for Jing Rui.
Shuyin was not as thick-skinned as Jing Rui, nor as calm as he was. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed Jing Rui on the left cheek.
And this way! Jing Rui turned his face to her lips.
Shuyin could only kiss the right side of her face again.
Jing Rui lowered his head and pointed at his mouth.The two kisses just now dont count, only the kiss here counts!
Shuyin was on the verge of a mental breakdown!
Why didnt she realize that Jing Rui was so shameless and boring?
She put her lips to Jing Ruis and kissed him.
Jing Rui was finally satisfied. He pinched Shuyins delicate chin and said with a smile,Actually, even if you dont kiss me, Ill still have to answer dads callter. Im deliberately giving him the cold shoulder so that he wont disturb our happy asion in the future!
Shuyin felt that if she were a piece of wood, she would definitely be so angry that she would burn up!
Seeing Jing Ruis smug face, she suddenly felt that she had let him off too easily.
She quickly moved closer and bit him hard.
Jing Ruis lips were swollen from her biting. He touched his mouth and reminisced.
Later, dad will take me to see a few vice presidents of the group. How do you think I should exin my swollen mouth to them? Dad must know that you bit him. The Vice Presidents must be guessing that I, the heir, am unruly!
Ah? Youre going to meet the Vice President of the corporation?
Shuyins eyes widened.Why didnt you say so earlier?!
You wont kiss me if I tell you, right? Im pretty good at ounting.
Shuyin wanted to cry, but no tears came out. This person was beyond saving!
What do we do? Shall I apply some anti-swelling ointment for you? Or should I put some ice on it?
She did not want Jing Rui to leave the house with a swollen mouth.
If he had known, he wouldnt have bitten so hard!
But Jing Rui felt that it was good to go out with a swollen mouth, as it would always remind him that his woman was a wild kitten.
No need. This way, I can tell others that I have a wife, in case some people miss your husband!
Shuyin didnt know what to say anymore. She watched as Jing Rui walked out of the suite with a swollen mouth.
Thinking that Jing Yichen would see Jing Rui, she wanted to drag Jing Rui back and stop him from leaving the house.
But she hoped that Yichen wouldnt think too much about it. Maybe Jing Rui had bitten his own mouth while eating.
The truth proved that Shuyin was too naive!
Was Jing Yichen such a stupid person?
The moment he saw his son, his attention was immediately drawn to Jing Ruis Red and swollen lips. The first thing he said was,Young man, you must exercise restraint!
Jing Rui, however, remained calm and said,I cant help it, Yinyin is too clingy!
He made it sound as if he had been together with Shuyin for a long time, but in reality, he didnt get his way today!
Shuyin was still a young girl now, and he himself was also an inexperienced girl!
But no matter how smart Jing Yichen was, he couldnt tell from Jing Ruis appearance that girls would change more or less after that, while men would not change much.
Jing Yichen thought that his son had seeded, so he patted Jing Ruis shoulder and said,If I had known earlier, I would have changed the day. If the Vice Presidents saw your face, it would be enough for them to be happy for a year!
Jing Rui said nonchntly,I have a woman. Are they jealous? Theres no point in being jealous, none of them are as handsome as me!
Jing Yichen agreed.Thats true. You look like me. Of course, you are handsome.
Jing Rui nodded and followed Jing Yichen into the car. They drove to a high-ss club in the city center.
The father and son didnt feel that it was inappropriate to praise themselves. The two very simr faces, with the same indifference, hidden with the same conceit, sat in the back of the car in the same posture.
Tiger looked at the father and son, raised his head proudly, and drove away happily.
This club in the city center was specially for high-level meetings and business meetings. The decoration was low-key but luxurious. It was simple, bright, and had a strong sense of privacy, suitable for confidential business negotiations and meetings.
With the rapid expansion and growth of Jingsheng enterprise, there were now twelve deputy presidents in thepany.
All 12 of them were present today. Some had just flown back from abroad, while some had been here for an entire week without any rest.
Everyone was dressed in suits and leather shoes, looking very formal. Three of the female vice presidents even tied up their hair and wore ck professional suits to show their calmness and professionalism.
The meeting was set to be at 8:30 pm, but the 12 of them arrived at 7:00 pm.
Most of them knew that Jing Rui was not the real Jing Rui, except for two.
But they all knew that Jing Rui was the real heir of family Jing.
In the future, the entire huge Jingsheng enterprise would be in his hands.
He was only twenty years old!
He was unbelievably young!
Could a young man who had juste out of his retirement manage such aplicated business empire?
None of them were simple people. They were all capable and had their own means. In Jingsheng enterprise, each of them could hold up the sky.
Jing Yichen was the only person they respected and admired.
As for Jing Rui, they would treat him seriously, but if they found out that he was not very capable, a riot would be inevitable.
It was rare for the twelve of them to gather together in such a neat manner. For a time, they were chatting in full swing.
One should not think that people in high positions were not gossipy. On the contrary, they were very interested in this kind of topic, and they were also very sharp. They could often analyze a lot of useful things from gossip.
Jing Rui and Jing Yichen arrived at 8:30 am.
In the spacious meeting room arranged by the club, the twelve people were already sitting upright and still. There was no longer the liveliness from before, only a solemn atmosphere.
They all knew that Jing Yichen would give up the position of President in a few days and step back.
It meant that all of them would have Jing Rui as their boss.
They could not afford to offend their superiors. Although each of them had shares of Jingsheng enterprise, the proportion was very small. Jing Rui already had half of the shares of Jingsheng enterprise under his own name. If he was dictatorial enough, they would beid off at any time.
As soon as they entered the room, all twelve of them stood up and shouted at Jing Yichen in unison,President!
Chapter 1178
Chapter 1178: An insurmountable mountain
Trantor: 549690339
The twelve of them were so powerful that Jing Yichen was startled. These people had never greeted him so formally before.
Most of the time, he and the twelve vice presidents were more like friends than superior and subordinate.
Jing Yichen could tell from their expressions that they were doing this on purpose for Jing Rui to see.
He did not stop them and let them test the waters. Even he himself did not know how well Jing Rui had hidden himself or how powerful he was.
Jing Rui turned a blind eye to the crowds protest. He sat down next to Jing Yichen and nced at the twelve people. Then he lowered his eyes, waiting for Jing Yichen to speak.
Of course, he wouldnt steal his fathers Thunder. Jing Yichen was an authority and an excellent leader in the business field.
His fathers ability was unparalleled!
Jing Yichen gestured for them to sit down and introduced Jing Rui to them.
He did not say whether the person who had reced Jing Rui was a substitute, but he did not intend to hide it either.
When he introduced Jing Rui to everyone, it proved that it was Jing Ruis first time meeting all the Vice Presidents.
On the surface, everyone seemed to be listening very seriously, but their gazes were a little strange.
Because they all found that Jing Ruis lips were swollen.
They were all adults, so they did not think that Jing Rui had bitten his lips by ident.
They were all thinking of an extremely erotic scene!
Everyone thought that Jing Rui was a man who would pretend to be calm in order to suppress them.
However, she did not expect him toe to see them with slightly swollen lips without any intention of hiding anything!
She was a little arrogant and haughty, and a little ... Cute!
After Jing Yichens brief introduction, it was Jing Rui who spoke.
He sat there with his back straight and his eyes swept over the crowd. He said indifferently,Jingsheng enterprise is the most important business of family Jing and the life work of my father and all of you. In the future, it will be my life work and glory. I look forward to working with you all!
It was a few simple words, and his voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but it had a shocking aura and momentum.
He didnt even want to say a word. He just made his position and attitude clear to everyone that he was not here for fun and that he was really going to control all the business of Jingsheng.
As soon as Jing Rui opened his mouth, everyone could tell that he was different from the substitute.
In the past, the substitute had tried every possible way to overpower all of them, to be above all of them.
Unfortunately, at the beginning, people didnt give Jing Yichen any trouble for his sake. But as time went by, no one took him seriously.
Jing Rui did not intend to overpower them. He used the word cooperation, which was obviously out of respect for the seniors in thepany.
However, his attitude was not respectful at all, and his tone was overbearing. This also showed that he would not be led by the nose by these people.
Neither servile nor overbearing, neither cold nor hot, the scale was just right!
None of them had ever seen Jing Yichen in his 20s, but they could see Jing Ruis face when they saw him.
The Jing familys bloodline was indeed powerful. Jing Rui was so calm andposed at such a young age. He was not affected by their oppressive aura at all. His words were clear and concise.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
In fact, they were all worried that the Jing family would produce a hedonistic son.
What if someone like the previous substitute, who didnt know anything and liked to givemands, came? they might Rise Up!
Since there was a capable heir, it couldnt be better.
But they had not seen Jing Ruis talent in business yet, so they kept silent, neither resisting nor obeying Him.
Jing Rui had already expected this. He was not in a hurry. Even if they did not approve of him, he might not approve of them.
No one would dare to fire him, but he had the right to change any Vice President!
The twelve giants had finally gathered together, and both the current and future presidents were present. They immediately started to report their results and threw out their problems for Jing Yichen to solve.
Jing Rui did not participate in the discussion of professional issues, nor did he give any suggestions or opinions.
Jing Yichen was much better than him in this aspect.
Jing Rui felt a sense of responsibility and pride when he saw the thirteen of them discussing business projects in an orderly manner, from Electronic Technology to entertainment culture, from domestic to foreign, from small contracts worth hundreds of thousands to big contracts worth billions.
The familys business had developed to a very prosperous stage and Jing Yichen had already paved the way for them. What he needed to do was to go further on this road.
It was alreadyte at night when the meeting ended.
However, no one felt tired. All of them were in high spirits as they disappeared into the night to prepare for the light in a few hours.
This was because everyone felt that they were full of value, and the power they controlled was enough to affect the lives and happiness of many people.
They were the Vice Presidents of the famous Jingsheng enterprise. Just the title alone was enough to make many people respect them.
Therefore, no one would ck off, because cking off would mean being reced!
Only by working hard to move forward and reach higher heights could he not be eliminated by Jingsheng and this era!
Jing Rui followed Jing Yichen into the car, but he was no longer as rxed as he had been.
He had even forgotten that his lips were still swollen. His face was solemn, as if he was going to the battlefield the next day.
Jing Yichen could understand his sons feelings.
At this moment, he would be in an indescribable state of shock, and he would also feel an unprecedented pressure.
Because he had taken over the business empire from Jing zhongxiu in the same way.
But when he took over Jingsheng, he was still in a Cold War with Jing zhongxiu and fighting for family Jings resources and properties with Jing Yiran. So he was even more fearless and cruel then, and not as peaceful as Jing Rui was now.
Jing Yichen patted Jing Ruis shoulder and said,Son, dont worry. In the future, you will do better than me! I believe you!
Jing Rui had thought so too.
But now, he was not sure.
He didnt think that he could surpass his father. In his heart, Jing Yichen had be the symbol of omnipotence and an insurmountable mountain in his life.
Chapter 1179
Chapter 1179: Jing Yichen was on the verge of a mental breakdown
Trantor: 549690339
The twelve people he had just met all had real talent and keen business minds. Anyone of them could make a name for themselves if they went out alone!
However, they were willing to be under someone else and be vice presidents. Why?
What they were convinced of was Jing Yichens personal charm.
It would be extremely difficult to subdue these twelve people!
Jing Rui suddenly felt lucky that he hade back from North America early. If he hade back anyter, he would have been under even more pressure.
After all, he was still young and had enough time to learn.
Moreover, he also had an outstanding teacher to teach him.
For the first time, Jing Rui asked Jing Yichen for advice seriously.Dad, Im afraid that your honeymoon with mom will be dyed. There are many things that you havent taught me yet, and I need you!
Jing Yichen suddenly sighed. He was better than his son in many ways, but there was one thing that he was not as good as his son in.
That was, when Jing Rui needed his help, he would never refuse to tell him. He would always tell him the truth without any psychological barriers.
He himself had suffered a lot in the past because he was being stubborn!
He would never lower his head when he was in trouble, and he would never ask Jing zhongxiu for help. That was why he had to take many detours.
It was good that his son was not trying to be brave!
But ...
Your mother and I have already decided to go on a vacation. This cant be changed. If you need anything, just give me a call!
Jing Rui felt a little helpless. How eager was his father to get rid of his son and daughter and spend some alone time with his mother?
You have to take good care of your sister. Dont let her out! Jing Yichen continued.
Let it out ...
Was Jing Xi a kitten or a puppy?
She had never seen a father who treated his daughter so casually!
Fortunately, Jing Xi looked very simr to Shangguan ning, otherwise he would have abandoned his daughter.
Wasnt a daughter a fathers lover in his past life?
Jing Yichen didnt have the self-awareness of a lover at all. He only knew how to coax his wife.
However, Jing Rui had a headache when it came to Jing Xi. He had decided long ago that he would throw this girl to Shuyin or mu Sen.
Yes, thats right, it was mu Sen!
Jing Xi only looked like a normal eight-year-old girl when she was with mu Sen.
If Jing Xi followed Shuyin, it would be easier for her to study viruses. Moreover, she would test the results on people she caught. It was too dangerous.
Following mu Sen, it was not bad for Jing Xi to study some Chinese medicine. She could treat her own diarrhea!
In the middle of the night, Jing Xi had no idea that her father and brother were despising her so much. She got up from the bed quietly and listened carefully to the movements in the master bedroom. She guessed that Shangguan ning had fallen asleep. She took out a set of equipment and climbed out of the window nimbly. She started to climb down little by little along a strong rope.
A building that was 27 stories high was actually very tall for an eight-year-old girl.
But Jing Xi was different from ordinary people. She had been absorbing all kinds of nutrients since she was in her mothers womb. She had a very strong body. She had been swimming in winter at the age of three, doing handstands and splits at the age of four, and had been doing all kinds of difficult movements with Jing Yichen since she was five.
Going up the mountains, going down the sea, touching a knife and using a gun, Jing Xi had done all of them.
Climbing a building was a piece of cake!
In fact, Shangguan ning was not sleeping at all. She had gotten used to Jing Yichen being by her side. She would not be able to fall asleep if he did note home at night.
She knew that Jing Yichen had taken Jing Rui to meet with the senior management, so she was very nervous.
He was not worried about Jing Rui, but he was worried that Liao Wei had left a bad impression on the higher-ups, and that the bad impression would be transferred to Jing Rui.
Shangguan ning couldnt fall asleep, so she was flipping through a book.
She didnt dare to make too much noise for fear of waking up her sleeping daughter.
After a while, she remembered that Jing Xi liked to kick off the quilt when she slept. She was afraid that she would catch a cold, so she put on her slippers and went to Jing Xis bedroom.
When Shangguan ning saw that the bedroom was empty and there was a long rope hanging by the window, she stomped her feet in anger.
This daughter of hers was bing more and more daring!
He could actually sneak away from the 27th floor in the middle of the night!
It was all Jing Yichens fault. He had taught his son so much that he had to be a killer in North America, but why did he teach his daughter so much?
Why didnt his men stop Jing Xi? they just let her run out!
Shangguan ning was so anxious that she called Jing Yichen immediately, even if he was still in the meeting.
Yichen, Xixi escaped from our house and climbed out of our window! Quickly get someone to find her, its sote, itll be bad if shes been kidnapped by bad people!
Jing Yichen was d that Jing Xi didnt abduct the bad guys and torture them.
Jing Yichen didnt dare to tell his wife that Jing Xi had almost been kidnapped.
Her daughter was not at a disadvantage, but the kidnapper was. If he told Shangguan ning about it, she would feel bad for Xixi for a long time.
Ning, dont worry. Ill be home soon. Xixi will be fine. My men have been following her. She has a tracker on her. Ill find her no matter where she is!
Shangguan ning knew that Jing Yichen had been secretly protecting her daughter, but she was still worried.Get your men to send Xixi back! Its sote, she has no ce to y if she goes out alone!
Jing Yichen smiled.Ning, let Xixi have her fun. You are not her. How do you know that there is nothing fun to do at night? Maybe shell find it interesting to lie on the beach and count the stars!
Shangguan ning didnt say anything. She had never been able to win against Jing Yichen in reasoning.
Dont worry, I promise that Xixi will be fine.
Finally, Shangguan ning couldnt resist Jing Yichens attack and chose to let her daughter y outside.
Jing Yichens smile disappeared immediately after he hung up the phone.
He said with a headache and anger,This girl is getting more and more out of control! Tiger, ask Lee duo where Xixi is!
Running out in the middle of the night, who knew who he was going to harm!
Jing Ruiughed when he saw Jing Yichens face.Dad, you were just pretending to be calm in front of mom! I really thought that you werent worried about my sister at all!
Although shes a little mischievous, shes still my daughter!
How could Jing Yichen not be worried? he had been so worried about this daughter of his.
It had not even been so difficult to raise Jing Rui.
He originally thought that giving birth to a daughter would save him more trouble. After all, girls were generally more obedient than boys. Who knew that he would give birth to a little devil!
He didnt know who Jing Xi had taken after, but he and Shangguan ning were not like this.

Chapter 1180: Big girl
Trantor: 549690339
Mu Sen woke up in the middle of the night. When he opened his eyes, he saw an exquisite and beautiful little face in his arms. He was so shocked that he almost jumped out of bed!
He even rubbed his eyes to make sure that he was not dreaming or hallucinating!
Xixi, what are you doing here?
When did this girle?
Why didnt he feel anything at all!
And he had locked the door. How did Jing Xi get in?
Fortunately, he didnt have the habit of sleeping naked. Even if he was alone at home, he would keep his clothes neat and tidy, because it would make it easier for him to deal with the emergency and emergencies in the hospital.
Jing Xis eyes sparkled. When she saw mu Sen sit up, she smiled and said,Brother mu, Im here to y with you! No one in the house ys with me!
No matter how good his heart was, he couldnt take it if she went to his bed in the middle of the night and yed with him a few more times!
It was sote, and there was no one in the Jing family who was ying with Jing Xi. They must have gone to bed!
Mu Sen raised his wrist to look at his watch. The needle showed that it was already one in the morning.
He was a little angry, but he was more worried and distressed.
Xixi, donte out sote at night again. Its too dangerous outside! Do your parents know that youre out?
They know, Jing Xi said like an obedient child.Why else would they let me out?
Mu Sen felt that it was unbelievable. Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning didnt seem to be the kind of people who would indulge their children. Why would he let his daughtere out to y in the middle of the night?
As he was thinking, the phone on the bedside table suddenly rang.
Mu Sen picked up the phone and heard Jing Yichens voice.Mu Sen, Xixi has gone out to y. Let her stay at your ce tonight, and Jing Rui will pick her up tomorrow. If shes naughty, you dont have to be polite, just beat her up!
It turned out that he had sneaked out!
Mu Sen looked at the little girl who was like a flower bud. Her eyes were shining like crystals, pure and clear. She was a little naughty, but this kind of Jing Xi would only make people feel more sorry for her. Why would he hit her?
Mu Sen didnt know about the others, but he definitely couldnt bear toy a hand on Jing Xi.
Dont worry, uncle. Ill take good care of Xixi. Shell be fine with me.
Jing Xi couldnt hear the voice on the other end of the phone, but she knew it was Jing Yichen as soon as she heard what mu Sen said.
She was a little worried that mu Sen would send her home.
Hence, the moment mu Sen hung up the phone, she immediately said pitifully,Brother mu, I miss you so much. Dont drive me away!
Mu Sen patted her head, his heart melting.
Dont worry, I wont chase you away. Your father said that youll be staying at my ce tonight.
But Jing Xi didnt just want this half a night. She wanted to stay here in the future!
What about the future? Cant I live here in the future?
Of course youll have to go back to your own home in the future.
Mu Sen felt that her dazed look was very cute and could not help but ruffle her hair.However, if you want to y with me, you cane anytime, but not in the middle of the night. The night is the time for you to sleep and rest. Its not safe for you to walk alone at night.
I see ... Jing Xi lowered her head sadly.You dont like me at all ...
Silly girl, of course I like you.
Mu Sen didnt know how to exin it to Jing Xi, but he obviously had to make it clear to her that there were differences between men and women.
Xixi, youre a girl, how can you just crawl into a mans bed at night? Now that youre all grown up, you cant sleep with a man anymore.
Jing Xi heard nothing but the words youve grown up.
She suddenly raised her head and said happily,Have I grown up?
Mu Sen nodded his head.Yes. Youre a Big Girl Now. You cant sleep with me.
Jing Xi finally understood why Mu Sen did not allow her to live here. It turned out that he felt that it was inconvenient for her as a girl!
So he thought that she had grown up!
Great! Ill sleep at home tonight. Ille to you in the day! Jing Xi said happily.
After finally coaxing the little girl, mu Sen left the bed for her and went to the living room to sleep on the sofa.
Jing Xi, on the other hand, was tossing and turning in bed, unable to fall asleep.
She looked at her body, which had no signs of development at all. Thinking about the choppy waves of mature women, she felt that mu Sen would definitely not like her.
She was considered very tall among her peers, but in front of mu Sen, she was still a little girl.
She had wanted to take some pills to promote growth, but she had been scolded by her mother!
The person who treated her the best in the world was her mother. She would definitely not harm her, so she could not take that kind of medicine.
Jing Xi decided that she would ask Shuyin tomorrow to see if she had any good ideas to help her develop.
Jing Xi didnt fall asleep until dawn. She didnt even know that Jing Rui hade and taken her away.
When she woke up again, she was already in her brothers Vi.
Without even putting on her shoes, she rushed downstairs and said to Jing Rui, who was having breakfast,Brother, why did you bring me here?
Jing Rui stopped eating his breakfast.If I dont bring you back, do you think Ill let you stay there with mu Sen?
I only went therest night and didnt even say much. I wanted to take advantage of the day to deepen our rtionship. You cant ruin your sisters happiness just because you have a wife!
Even though Jing Rui was mentally prepared and knew that his sister had been thinking about mu Sen since she was young, he almost choked on Jing Xis words.
He picked up a steel spoon and hit Jing Xis little head. He said resentfully,Youre only eight years old, what do you know about happiness? Our mom has been worried about you the whole night!
Jing Xi touched her head, which was hurting from her brothers beating, and said guiltily,I thought ... Mom was asleep!
If she knew that her precious daughter was crying and screaming to sleep in another mans house, would she faint from anger? Girls shouldnt be so proactive, you have to be reserved!
Jing Xi grabbed Jing Ruis sleeve and shook it. Big brother, my real big brother, please dont tell mom! I dont want her to be angry, she loves me the most! Ill definitely be more reserved in the future!
At least she knew how to take Shangguan ning into consideration. The little girl was indeed a filial child.
Come and eat.
Jing Rui was not worried about the rtionship between Jing Xi and mu Sen. It was not a big deal that Jing Xi liked mu Sen, but if mu Sen dared to take advantage of Jing Xi, he would definitely make him suffer as her brother.
Jing Xi sat on the dining chair and ate her breakfast. When she was almost full, Jing Rui released an explosive news.Xixi, mu Sen has a girlfriend!
Chapter 1181
Chapter 1181: Cant be touched by men!
Trantor: 549690339
The small spoon in Jing Xis hand fell to the ground.
Impossible! Ive observed that brother mu Sen doesnt have a girlfriend!
I can let you take a look at it another day.
When did this happen? Howe I didnt know? When I went to his house to sleep, there was no woman there! Brother, youre not lying to me, are you?
The little girl was too smart to be fooled!
How many times have you been to mu Sens house? Jing Rui asked without changing his expression. Whether Im lying to you or not, well know soon enough.
Of course, mu Sen did not have a girlfriend, but if Jing Rui said he did, he would have one soon.
There were many girls who wanted mu Sen the most. As long as he yed a little trick, he could pass off the fake as the real one.
Jing Rui was very busy these days. He had to prepare for his engagement ceremony with Shuyin and take over Jingsheng enterprise. He didnt have much time to manage Jing Xi, so he could only leave her to Shuyin for the time being.
He had wanted Jing Zhi to take Jing Xi to dinner, but Jing Zhi was not very reliable. Last time, he had taken Jing Xi to dinner, but he had not paid for the meal and Jing Xi had run away.
Jing Rui decided that it would be better for him to take care of the family business.
In this way, everyone in A city would know that the second master of family Jing had returned.
Jing Xi also liked to be with Shuyin. She lived in a luxury suite in a hotel with Shuyin. She went to school with her during the day, went to the hospital with her at night for experiments, and sometimes went shopping with her.
She felt that it was much better than following her two brothers!
Sis-inw, is there any virus that can promote human development?
Jing Xi had changed her mind ever since Shuyin had visited the Jing family.
Shuyin had corrected her many times, but Jing Xi still called her sister-inw. She could only ept it helplessly.
Of course, there was a virus that could promote human development, but Shuyin would not give it to Jing Xi so easily.
What do you want this virus for?
Shuyin carefullybed Jing Xis hair into a ponytail. She looked at Jing Xis delicate and beautiful face and asked with a smile,You want to grow up?
Yeah, when can I be as tall as you? I still want to have the same big chest as you!
Jing Xis face was innocent, but Shu Yin immediately blushed.
She had never expected that such a young girl like Jing Xi would know that she had to have big breasts!
Who taught you all this nonsense? Youre doing very well now. In a few years, youll grow up naturally when its time for you to develop. Now, youre pulling up seedlings to help them grow, which will harm your health!
Shuyin didnt know that Jing Xi had taken a fancy to mu Sen. She was afraid that Jing Xi would secretly use some virus, so she held her little hand and warned her seriously.
Alright, if you dont like it, I wont use it!
Jing Xi knew that the medicine would harm her body, and she was even more afraid to use it after hearing what Shuyin said.
It seemed like she could only wait and grow up slowly.
During her stay at Shuyins ce, Jing Xi could always see mu Sen talking andughing with a girl every time she went to family MUs Hospital.
The girl looked about the same age as mu Sen. She was very beautiful, and her chest was bulging as if it was going to burst her clothes.
He looked much better than a bean sprout like her!
No wonder mu Sen smiled so brightly at her. Jing Xi had never seen mu Sen smile at her like that.
She did not believe Jing Rui at first, but she did after a few days.
Jing Xi had been very sad for the past few days. Fortunately, she was still too young to understand love. She only felt that her brother mu Sen had been taken away by someone else, as if she had lost her beloved Barbie doll.
However, she knew that she treated mu Sen differently from other people.
At least, when she found out that Jing Rui liked Shuyin, she was not sad at all. On the contrary, she was very happy.
She did not have any possessiveness for her brother, but she did have a little for mu Sen.
She knew more than an ordinary eight-year-old girl, but she knew a little less than an eighteen-year-old girl.
Shuyin, on the other hand, happened to be 18 years old. Naturally, she became Jing Xis mentor on the path of love.
Although Shuyin had very little experience in love, she knew what she should know. Moreover, she had a more reserved and cold personality, so when she taught Jing Xi, she naturally couldnt be unrestrained.
When Jing Zhi saw Jing Xi again, he was surprised to find that the little girl seemed to have be a little more mature.
This was the first time Jing Zhi had seen Jing Xi since she had gone missing.
He went up to hold Jing Xi, but unexpectedly, he didn t.
Jing Zhi was stunned,Xixi, are you still angry with second brother? Second brother didnt do it on purposest time. Ive already sent that Xiao Ling out of A city!
He didnt tell her the whole truth. Xiao Ling did leave A city, but Jing Zhi had sent her abroad to study.
Thest time she fainted, it was all because of Jing Xis tricks. It was not Xiao Lings fault.
If she stayed in the country, she might not run into her again, and she might not have an ident again. With her familys messy situation, sending her abroad to study was the only way to solve it once and for all.
She could only truly escape poverty after she had aplished her studies. Otherwise, she would have to work for others for the rest of her life!
Jing Xi didnt really care about Xiao Ling. She thought that she was just a stranger.
She stood up straight and her little face was a little serious.Im not angry with second brother. Its just that youre a man and Im a woman. My sister-inw said that I cant let any man touch me!
Jing Zhis pretty eyes widened. He nced at the cold Shu Yin and said, Im your second brother, cant I even hug you? Your sister-inw is so cold, dont ever learn from her!
The original quirky, talkative, and yful little girl was so good!
He didnt like cold girls, and only his brother, Jing Rui, liked her.
Then find me a second sister-inw who isnt cold so I can learn from her! Brother is going to be engaged to sister-inw soon. When do you n to get engaged?
Jing Xi didnt think that Shuyin was cold at all. On the contrary, she always thought that Shuyin was very gentle and patient to her, so she deliberately used the engagement between Jing Rui and Shuyin to provoke Jing Zhi.
Engaged?!
Jing Zhi felt like he had been struck by lightning.
This was way too fast!
When did her brother and Shuyin end up like this?
He had no idea at all!
Werent they breaking up a few days ago? Didnt Shuyin refuse to live with her brother? He was still staying in the hotel today!
Engagement? It was unbelievable!
Jing Zhis eyes widened as he stared at Shuyin. It was as if he didnt know her at all. He looked at her from head to toe, and then his gaze was attracted by the diamond ring on Shuyins finger.
Are you and my brother really going to get engaged?
Shuyin touched the bright diamond and her smile became a little gentle.Yes, I am.
Chapter 1182
Chapter 1182: Heartache
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi did not feel any progress in Jing Rui and Shuyins rtionship!
He remembered that his brother couldnt even touch Shuyins hand thest time. Why was he getting engaged just like that?
Shuyin was willing to let her brother touch her?
Now, looking at her face full of gentleness and happiness, she seemed to have really fallen in love with her brother!
Jing Zhis head was filled with questions, but he didnt know where to start.
He could only hope that his brother had not chosen the wrong person.
Shuyin, you have to treat my brother better in the future. You might never know what hes done for you. Ive never seen him treat anyone so well before.
Shuyin smiled gently.Ive already agreed to marry him. Of course, Ill treat him well.
She had never dreamed that she would be with Jing Rui one day.
To be able to marry him and have his care and love was a very happy thing.
No one knew how she felt about Jing Rui.
Perhaps even Jing Rui himself did not know how much she admired and loved him.
If I see you mistreating my brother in the future, Ill find another woman for him! When the timees, dont me me for being merciless!
Shuyin was so angry that sheughed. Jing Zhi was still as childish as ever!
She had not even been engaged to Jing Rui yet, and he had already said that he would help Jing Rui find another woman. Was he helping or making things worse?
Sure, you can help him! Lets see if he dares to take it!
Shu Yins expression was calm, and she said indifferently,You find a few women for your brother, and Ill find a few men for Zheng yuluo. How about it? fair, right?
You!
Jing Zhi didnt expect Shuyin to be so cruel. He had wanted to give her a warning, but he didnt expect to be threatened by her.
This woman was indeed not to be trifled with!
When it came to Zheng yuluo ...
Where has Zheng yuluo been these days? Why didnt you go to school?
Jing Zhi was very unhappy. He had looked for Zheng yuluo several times, but he had not seen her.
His phone was either turned off or no one picked up. It was almost like he was missing!
Shuyin didnt know whether tough or cry. She said coldly,Shes your own woman, why are you asking me? I dont know where she went. As for why she didnt go to school, its probably because I was afraid that someone would go to school and cause trouble for her, so I didnt let you see her.
The news that Zheng yuluo was already taken had spread throughout the entire University of X. Jing Zhi had sent her to school twice, and both times, it had caused a hugemotion. He wanted the whole world to know that Zheng yuluo was his woman.
There were all kinds of rumors in the school now, but the rumors about Shuyin were suppressed.
Jing Zhi frowned,huh? Shes deliberately avoiding me?
Shuyin and Zheng yuluo could only be considered ordinary friends. They werent close, so Shuyin usually didnt ask too much about Zheng yuluo.
However, Zheng yuluo had indeed gone to school.
Jing Zhi did not see her. Zheng yuluo must have avoided her.
Did you make Yu Luo angry? She has a good temper and usually doesnt get angry. Is it because youre too close to Xiao Ling that she misunderstood?
Jing Zhi rolled his eyes,when did I get close to Xiao Ling? Dont spout nonsense!
Sister-inw, youre not lying, Jing Xi interrupted.I saw you and Xiao Ling making eyes at each other during thest meal. She looks like sister luoluo. I dont believe you dont know! Sister luoluo must have found out about you and Xiao Ling!
Jing Zhi was so angry that he almost fell over.
All his attention that day was on Jing Xi, thinking about how to make her happy. He didnt have the time to make eyes with Xiao Ling!
This vocabry ... Was really unpleasant to hear!
Besides, there was nothing between him and Xiao Ling that was shameful! Even if Zheng yuluo found out, he was not afraid!
You two are in cahoots, Im done talking to you!
Jing Zhi was not in the mood to argue with them. He had to find Zheng yuluo and ask her!
He left without a moments dy, leaving Shuyin and Jing Xi staring at each other.
Xixi, were not doing anything bad, are we?
I dont think so? I think sister luoluo hasnt been very happy these few days. There must be some misunderstanding. Sister-inw, you dont know, but Xiao Lings temperament is very simr to sister luoluo s!
How could Shuyin not know!
Xiao Ling had been knocked out by Jing Xis virus, and it was her and Peter who had helped her get rid of the virus. Of course, they knew what Xiao Ling looked like.
my was thin and delicate, with an extremely beautiful face. Her eyes were also very clear, and she spoke in a soft voice, a little like Zheng yuluo.
More importantly, she was quite pitiful. Her family was poor and only relied on her, a weak girl, to support herself. It was easier for men to feel pity for her.
It wasnt the first time Jing Zhi had helped my, but Zheng yuluo had almost always run into him.
It was only after Jing Xis reminder that Shu Yin realized that Zheng yuluo might be jealous.
However, it seemed like Jing Zhi had no other feelings for my. The only person he really cared about was Zheng yuluo.
Otherwise, he wouldnt have left so quickly.
Jing Zhi drove to University of X. It was easy for him to find someone if he really wanted to.
Zheng yuluo was sitting alone on thewn of the school with a book in her arms. She was surrounded by tall pine trees, which made her seem small and lonely.
When Jing Zhi found her, he saw her tears falling on the paper, smudging her handwriting.
When Zheng yuluo saw him, she hurriedly wiped away her tears, stood up, and turned to leave. She did not even want the books that were left on thewn.
Jing Zhis eyebrows were tightly knitted together.
He pulled Zheng yuluo back and said coldly,What are you running for?
Let me go!
Zheng yuluo refused to let Jing Zhi touch her. Her tears fell faster and faster, and her voice was nasal.
I havent seen you for a few days, Zheng yuluo, youve grown up! You dare to resist me!
Jing Zhis strength could absolutely suppress Zheng yuluo. He held Zheng yuluos arm with one hand to stop her from leaving, and his other hand pinched her chin, forcing her to look at him.
Shuyin told me that you misunderstood. I didnt believe it, but it seems like its true! Zheng yuluo, are you an idiot? Do you have a brain? Look at me and speak!
Zheng yuluo looked at Jing Zhi with tears in her eyes. She didnt say a word when he scolded her.
If you have any questions, why dont you ask me? Do you feel a sense of achievement by guessing?
What are you crying for? Dont cry!
Zheng yuluo, dont force me to have sex with you here!
Zheng yuluos chin and arms were in pain from Jing Zhis pinching, but the pain was far less intense than the pain in her heart.
She cried even harder. Her eyes were red and her face was covered in tears.
Jing Zhi tore her clothes off violently, but she didnt move. He didnt even resist. Halfway through, he pulled her into his arms.
Such a Zheng yuluo made his heart bleed!
Chapter 1183
Chapter 1183: A conspiracy
Trantor: 549690339
She was only 17 years old, just like a delicate flower that was slightly blooming.
He wanted to fill her youth with happiness, not with bitter tears when he thought about it in the future.
Jing Zhi had always been impatient, especially when it came to things he did. But when it came to Zheng yuluo, all his impatience was broken.
If it were someone else, he would have turned around and left if he kept crying like this.
However, this person was Zheng yuluo. He only felt heartache and anger, not disgust at all.
He had initially pitied Xiao Ling only because she looked a little like Zheng yuluo when she cried.
Jing Zhi refused to let go of Zheng yuluo, letting her tears wet his brand new suit and shirt.
It was a very expensive outfit, given to him by Jing Rui for formal asions.
Now, Zheng yuluo was crying her eyes out.
Zheng yuluo, dont cry. I dont like to see you cry. Youre very ugly, do you know that?
Zheng yuluo didnt want to cry either. She wanted to face Jing Zhi calmly.
However, rationality and feelings were two different things.
The moment she saw him, she could not control her tears.
Zheng yuluos clothes had just been torn by Jing Zhi, revealing arge area of her snow-white chest, and her two plump breasts were about toe out.
Jing Zhi took off his suit jacket and draped it over Zheng yuluos body. He wrapped her up tightly so that no one else could see her beauty.
Zheng yuluo cried for nearly half an hour. She was tired and leaned against Jing Zhi weakly.
Jing Zhi wiped the tears off her face and said in a low voice, Ivee to school to look for you a few times and even went to your house to look for you, but I didnt see you. Youre quite ruthless. You didnt even give me a chance to exin and directly sentenced me to death. Even murderers have the chance to defend themselves in court. Im not as good as a murderer.
Zheng yuluo slowly left Jing Zhis arms. She looked up into his eyes and said in a hoarse voice,Xiao Ling said that youre already with her! You guys have already ... Slept together!
Jing Zhi was shocked. He said angrily, Shes talking nonsense!
He was so angry that his lungs were about to explode!
How could Xiao Ling say something like that!
Jing Zhi said subconsciously,no, thats impossible! Xiao Ling was not the kind of person who was scheming, she did not even know how to lie! She wouldnt say that. Did you get the wrong person?
Zheng yuluos heart felt as if it had been pierced by a sharp icicle. It was cold and painful!
She got the wrong person?
Was Xiao Ling really that good?
If Xiao Ling was not scheming, could it be that she, Zheng yuluo, was scheming?
Ever since Jing Zhi went missing eight years ago, she had already lost her sense of scheming!
This feeling of distrust made Zheng yuluos entire world start to copse!
She flung Jing Zhis hand away, threw the suit on the ground, and left without looking back.
Zheng yuluo,e back here!
Jing Zhi didnt know why she was so angry all of a sudden. The matter hadnt been resolved yet, and she was leaving just like that.
Did he spoil her too much?
In the past, she had never dared to throw tantrums at him!
Zheng yuluo could no longer hear anything. All she could hear was the sound of something deep in her heart shattering.
She knew every time Jing Zhi sent Xiao Ling to the hospital.
She also knew that Jing Zhi had overdrawn his credit card and secretly sent Xiao Ling to study in North America.
She also knew that Jing Zhi had personally sent Xiao Ling to the airport and that Xiao Ling had been crying in his arms when they parted.
However, how did she know all this?
This was because Xiao Ling had told her everything herself. Not only that, she had even sent her a message to watch the live broadcast at the airport!
But Jing Zhi was telling her today that Xiao Ling wasnt a scheming person and wouldnt lie?
What could be more ironic than this!
Zheng yuluo ran madly through the schools Woods, tears blurring her vision. She tripped over the dead branches again and again, but she got up again and again.
It was not until she was exhausted that shey on the ground and cried loudly.
In the woods, couples passed by asionally. When they saw Zheng yuluo crying with her hair disheveled, they all shook their heads and walked away.
There were often girls who had fallen out of love crying here, but it was rare to see one cry like Zheng yuluo. It was obvious that she had been hurt very deeply.
The bright sunlight gradually disappeared from the horizon.
The darkness rose and enveloped the entire forest.
Zheng yuluo did not even want to get up from the ground. If she could, she wanted to die in the darkness.
Dont let her fall in love with Jing Zhi again in the next life!
Zheng yuluos phone kept ringing, but she didnt seem to hear it.
Maybe it was Jing Zhi, or maybe it wasn t.
Perhaps he was still concerned about his innocent Xiao Ling, or perhaps he had never taken her seriously.
Finally, the phones low battery was exhausted by the ringing. It shed and then went out.
Just like Zheng yuluos heart, even thest trace of light was swallowed by darkness.
The surroundings were deathly silent. Under the faint moonlight, the shadows of the trees were mottled, like demons baring their fangs and brandishing their ws. There was a kind of gloomy and terrifying aura.
Normally, Zheng yuluo would not have stayed in such a ce for even a second longer.
She was timid and afraid of the dark, and she always felt that ghosts mighte out of nowhere and eat her.
But now, she felt that being eaten was not a bad thing.
However, when a snake really appeared beside her to bite her, Zheng yuluo still screamed and jumped up instinctively.
The little green snake might not have expected its prey to have such a high decibel. It was frightened and used the fastest speed it had ever used to burrow into the grass to escape.
Little green snakes often appeared in University of X. In spring and summer, students who went into the woods to flirt with each other were often bitten.
Zheng yuluo knew that this kind of snake was not venomous, and it was not aggressive. It was probably just hungry and came out at night to look for food.
The little snake escaped. Zheng yuluo was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat, but it offset some of the pain in her heart.
In the face of death, ones potential could always be stimted.
The night breeze was a little chilly. Zheng yuluo crossed her arms and walked slowly in the woods.
Zheng yuluo rarely came to this forest. It was basically a gathering ce for couples. At this moment, along the way, she had already startled two pairs of passionate mandarin ducks.
Feeling a little awkward, Zheng yuluo wanted to leave quickly.
However, she quickly realized that she was lost!
The forest was huge. Zheng yuluo could have walked out during the day, but it was dark at night, and she could not find her way.
Zheng yuluo walked around in a big circle, but instead of going out, she walked to theke in the depths of the forest.
The surface of theke was sparkling, reflecting Zheng yuluos shadow.
Then, under her horrified gaze, another shadow appeared beside her!
In the pitch-ck night, a hand reached out silently and pushed her into the bottomless Lake from behind.

Chapter 1184: Someone wants her dead
Trantor: 549690339
Plop! Zheng yuluo did not even have time to scream before she was swallowed by theke water.
The shadow quickly disappeared after she fell into the water.
Everything happened so quickly that Zheng yuluo felt that the push was just her hallucination!
Theke water was bone-piercingly cold, and a sense of suffocation surrounded Zheng yuluo. Her struggle became weaker and weaker. She wanted to break out of the water to breathe fresh air, but theke seemed to be separated from her by an entire Gxy!
Was she going to die?
Jing Zhis handsome and cold face shed across Zheng yuluos mind, and she fell into darkness.
Luoluo!
Luoluo, wake up. Dont scare me!
A womans voice kept on making noise, and Zheng yuluo felt that it was extremely noisy. She wanted to sleep a little longer, for another century.
Her head hurt, and her eyelids felt heavy. Zheng yuluo tried a few times but couldnt open them, so she wanted to give up.
Unfortunately, the voice in her ear was so noisy that she couldnt fall asleep.
After a long time, Zheng yuluo was annoyed by the noise and finally opened her eyes in pain.
The female voice that had not stopped suddenly shouted in surprise,Luoluo, youre awake?
Zheng yuluo took a while to see the person in front of her clearly. She couldnt help but shout,Mom?
The voice that came out of her mouth was extremely hoarse, and it did not sound like her voice at all.
Zheng yuluo was startled, but Zheng Lun was so happy that she burst into tears.
Luoluo, youre finally awake. You scared me! Dont ever go to the water alone again!
Waterside?
The memories before she fainted flooded Zheng yuluos mind.
Thinking of the shadow that suddenly appeared beside her and the hand in the darkness, Zheng yuluo shivered!
Someone wanted her dead!
Who was it?
Who had such a deep hatred for her!
Mom, who saved me?
Its your father!
Zheng yuluo was a little shocked. How did he know I was there!
Your sister came home yesterday and said that she wanted to give you a surprise. Your father couldnt get through to you. He was afraid that something had happened to you, so he went to the school to look for you.
Zheng Lun said as she burst into tears.
If Zheng Jing had been a littleter, Zheng yuluo would have been dead!
She had such a good pair of twin daughters. If she lost one, how was she going to live?
Zheng yuluos heart felt empty. It turned out that the person who had been calling her was not Jing Zhi.
Im sorry, Mom,she said guiltily.Ive made you and dad worry. If I had known that Wei Wei was back, I would have gone home earlier.
Its fine, its fine, as long as youre fine!
Zheng Lun held her daughter in her arms and cried,How could you be so careless and fall into such a deepke? dont you know that people drowned there? Didnt your school forbid students from going near that ce?
She did not suspect that Zheng yuluo wanted tomit suicide by jumping into theke. She just thought that her daughter had identally slipped in due to poor vision at night.
Theke in University of X was originally called the yearning Lake. There was a sad and moving legend about it. It was very famous in the entire A city, not only because of the beautiful scenery by theke, but also because many couples had died there.
When a student lost his life, University of X immediately changed the name of theke of yearning to Lake of peace and forbade students from approaching it.
In the past ten years, no one had died for love, but there were still students who lost their lives asionally.
I identally lost my way at night and ended up there. I wont do it again.
Zheng yuluo didnt tell Zheng Lun the truth, in case she would be worried.
Zheng Lun had always been well protected by Zheng Jing. She had always been innocent and didnt know how to cheat.
Zheng yuluo usually didnt tell her anything. If she did, it would only add to her heartache.
It was better for her to tell her father about this.
Wheres dad and Wei Wei?
Zheng yuluo changed the topic. She felt that it was a little strange that her father and sister were not by her side.
The two of them saw that she was unconscious, so they should have been watching over her.
Your father went to school. He said he wanted to have a good talk with the principal to prevent any more students from falling into theke. Your sister went out to buy us some food. She should be back soon.
Zheng Lun was the only one who would believe that.
Zheng yuluo did not believe it.
She felt that her father must have thought that it was very strange that she had fallen into the water, so he had gone to the school to look for clues.
Naturally, the faster they could find clues, the better. The longer they dyed, the higher the possibility of losing the clues.
As for Zheng Yuwei, she came in with all kinds of food while they were talking.
When the two sisters met, they hugged each other, crying andughing. It took a while before they wiped their tears and calmed down.
Zheng yuluo held her sisters hand and noticed that there were thin calluses on her palm. She suddenly felt a little distressed.
Zheng Yuweis skin was originally as fair as hers, but now it had turned into a wheat color. She seemed to have grown taller, her back was straight, and her eyes had be a little sharp.
Zheng yuluo sighed in her heart. The younger sister looked more like an older sister than she did.
Zheng yuluo had only fainted because she had choked on water. Now that she had woken up, there were no major problems with her body. She would be discharged from the hospital soon and go home.
Zheng Jing didnt get home until it was dark. He went straight to Zheng yuluos room, drove away his wife and younger daughter, and talked to his elder daughter alone.
Luoluo, tell Daddy the truth. How did you fall into theke? You didnt jump in on your own, did you?
Although Zheng yuluo did have such thoughts, it was not the case this time.
Dad, someone pushed me down!
Zheng yuluo was still terrified when she recalled the terrifying momentst night.
Suicide and being killed were twopletely different concepts. Even if Zheng yuluo really wanted to die, she would still be instinctively afraid if someone wanted to kill her halfway.
She would never forget the moment when theke water reflected the two of them!
She would never forget that cold and dark hand!
Zheng Jing had already guessed that someone had pushed Zheng yuluo into theke on purpose, because he had passed by a ck shadow when he had arrivedst night.
The other party was in a hurry and seemed to be more anxious and flustered than him, the Father who had lost his daughter!
Zheng Jing had been suspicious of him at that time, but he had heard the sound of someone falling into the water. He was afraid that Zheng yuluo had fallen into the water, so he had jumped into theke to save her without caring about the man.
Fortunately, he didnt hesitate. Otherwise, he might have lost his daughter forever in order to catch that suspicious person.
Luoluo, did you see what the person who pushed you looked like?
Zheng yuluo shook her head.He pushed me from behind. I didnt see his face. I only saw his shadow in theke. It should be ... A man.
Chapter 1185
Chapter 1185: Sister
Trantor: 549690339
In terms of gender, Zheng yuluos judgment was the same as Zheng Jing S. He also thought that the figure was a man.
Luoluo, have you offended anyone?
Zheng Jings expression was serious. Someone had tried to kill his daughter and he wanted to find the culprit immediately.
Zheng yuluo had always been obedient and rarely caused trouble. She had never made enemies with anyone. She was introverted now and had always avoided outsiders, so why would anyone want to kill her?
Xiao Lings beautiful face shed across Zheng yuluos mind, and she finally shook her head.No, dad. I dont know many people, and Ive never offended anyone.
Even if Xiao Ling liked Jing Zhi and wanted to take him for herself, she had already done it.
She hadnt talked to Jing Zhi for many days, and now that they were over, there was no need for Xiao Ling to kill her.
In Zheng yuluos heart, she also felt that Xiao Ling was so beautiful and pitiful. She was also so delicate when she spoke. How could she kill someone?
It shouldnt be her ... Right?
Luoluo, youd better not hide anything, or youll still be in danger! That person failed to kill you the first time, so hell definitely make a move again!
Zheng Jing was both angry and distressed. He thought that his daughter was so stupid.
Do you think I dont know that you and Jing Zhi are in a rtionship?
Zheng yuluo looked up in a panic.No, dad. No... We ... She said.
She couldnt continue. Lying was not her Forte, especially in front of Zheng Jing. She always felt that Zheng Jing could see through her.
She and Jing Zhi were, as Zheng Jing had said, not very close.
She naively thought that she was Jing Zhis girlfriend and that they could be together forever. However, he turned around and took the other girl into his arms.
The whole of X University knew that she was Jing Zhis girlfriend.
Now that they had suddenly separated, she would definitely be the center of gossip again.
Dad, dont worry. I wont look for him or see him again.
Zheng yuluos heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, and her voice was almost inaudible.
She couldnt share a man with another woman, so if Jing Zhi chose Xiao Ling, she wouldnt bother him.
Zheng Jing had always objected to her being too close to Jing Zhi. But now her father didnt have to worry about her getting infected.
Good, as long as youve made up your mind. Im not trying to stop you from dating freely, but Jingzhi is too dangerous. Hes not suitable for you, if ...
If it were Jing Rui, he might have considered it. Although Jing Rui was cold, he was just like Jing Yichen. He was calm and attached great importance to rtionships. He might be a good husband and father, just like Jing Yichen.
Of course, Zheng Jing was just thinking about it. Even if Jing Rui really liked his daughter, he would not be able to bear to let her go.
Others might not know, but he knew that Jing Rui had the same terrifying virus in his body, which was deadly.
Only Shuyin, who grew up ying with viruses, was not afraid of them.
An ordinary girl would be terrified even if she got close to Jing Rui.
Forget it, lets not talk about this. Its good that you know what youre doing. Youre still young now, and there are many good boys out there. You can pick a better one in the future.
Zheng Jing had only thought that his daughter and Jing Zhi were a little ambiguous and had a good impression of each other. He had never thought that his daughter had already lost her virginity to Jing Zhi.
In his eyes, Zheng yuluo was an obedient girl who would never do anything out of line.
Luoluo, you should rest well first. If you remember anything, tell me immediately. Ill go and investigate again to see who is trying to harm you!
Dad, thank you! Zheng yuluo nodded and whispered.
Thank you for indulging me and protecting me!
If you didnt care about me, I would have be a dead soul in theke.
Zheng Jing smiled at his daughter.Silly girl, dont stand on ceremony with your own father. Dont think too much. Dont go to school for the next few days. Rest well at home. Your sister is back now. You two sisters can have a good chat.
Alright!
There were some things that she couldnt tell her parents. She could only tell her twin sister.
Zheng Yuwei knew almost everything about her, so there was nothing to hide.
In front of her parents, Zheng yuluo still looked strong. But when Zheng Jing left and Zheng Yuwei came in to apany her, she couldnt help but cry.
Zheng Yuwei was shocked and hugged her in a hurry.Sister, dont cry! Tell me, who bullied you? Ill go kill that bastard!
They were twin sisters who had grown up together. When one was in danger, the other would have a wonderful sense.
Last night, when Zheng yuluo fell into the water, Zheng Yuwei had been feeling uneasy, as if something had happened.
She was 17 years old this year, and in the past 17 years, she had only felt this way twice.
The first time was when Zheng yuluo was ten years old. Because Jing Zhi had been missing for a whole year, she suffered from severe depression and wanted tomit suicide.
The other time was when Zheng yuluo was almost killed by Jing Zhi in North America.
It was the third time she had that feelingst night, and she immediately panicked.
It turned out that her senses were correct. If her father had gone a littleter, she would have lost her sister.
Zheng yuluo cried silently in her sisters arms. She had no one to talk to about her pain and suffering. Fortunately, her sister had returned and given her a special kind of warmth.
Sister, did Jing Zhi make you fall into the water? Did he still bear grudges? Just you wait, Im going to settle this with him!
Zheng Yuwei said and immediately wanted to leave.
Zheng yuluo hurriedly hugged her and said,Weiwei, dont go! You cant beat him!
Im not fighting him, I have a gun! Sister, dont worry, Im a good marksman. I can kill him with one shot. Ill be careful and wont let anyone find out!
Zheng yuluo was even more flustered. It turned out that her sister really wanted to kill Jing Zhi!
How could this be!
Even if Jing Zhi didnt like her anymore and fell for another woman, Zheng yuluo didnt want him to die. She didnt even want him to be hurt!
Wei Wei, let me finish first, dont be rash!
Zheng yuluo grabbed her sisters clothes tightly, afraid that if she let go, her sister would go to Jing Zhi with the gun.
She would be heartbroken if either of them was injured.
Jing Zhi had nothing to do with me falling into theke. Someone else pushed me in! She said.
It really wasnt him? Zheng Yuwei asked suspiciously.
No!
You saw who pushed you?
This ... I didnt see him.
Zheng Yuwei stomped her feet in anger,sister, how do you know its not him if you didnt see him! Maybe hes taking revenge on us for kidnapping him before! Dont be so naive. I dont think Jing Zhi is a good person!
Chapter 1186
Chapter 1186: If you dont believe me, touch it
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo still shook her head firmly.No, he won t. Weiwei, you dont know him. He wouldnt do something like that.
If he really wanted her dead, Jing Zhi had a thousand ways to do it.
He was so proud and arrogant, it was impossible for him to attack in the dark.
And ...
Zheng yuluo felt that even if he had fallen in love with Xiao Ling, he would not be so cruel as to take her life.
She could feel this.
Zheng Yuwei looked at her own sister in exasperation.
She didnt understand what was so good about Jing Zhi. She didnt understand why Jing Zhi would speak up for her sister when he had obviously hurt her.
She walked to the bed andy side by side with Zheng yuluo. She covered her with the quilt and said softly,Sister, tell me everything that happened during this period of time. Im afraid that youll be deceived by that bastard.
For the first time, Zheng Yuwei regretted attending the military school. Otherwise, she could have stayed with her sister in A city and be the first to know what happened to her sister.
Zheng yuluo roughly exined the situation, including Xiao Lings matter.
Zheng Yuwei almost died from anger!
If Zheng yuluo hadnt held her tightly, she would have gone to Jing Zhi with her gun.
This bastard! Im upying you and seducing other vixens! Sister, how can you be so patient? Xiao Ling told you so much, and its obvious that shes up to no good. Why didnt you leave any evidence and throw it at Jing Zhis face?
Weiwei, dont tell mom and dad what Im telling you, and dont ever look for Jing Zhi for revenge, okay? Otherwise, I wont tell you anything in the future!
How can you still protect him at a time like this?
Zheng Yuwei was a little impatient, and she had a straightforward personality of taking revenge.
If she had been in his shoes, she would have beaten Jing Zhi and Xiao Ling up.
This was a proper third party stepping in, so she should be beaten up until her teeth were all over the ground!
Wei Wei, are you going to agree or not?
Zheng yuluo understood her sisters character. She held her sisters arm and insisted that she give her a promise.
Zheng Yuwei was so angry that she had no choice but to nod and agree.Fine, fine, fine. I wont cause trouble for Jing Zhi. Ill keep it a secret from mom and dad.
If she did not promise this, Zheng yuluo might really not tell her the secret in the future.
Zheng yuluo heaved a sigh of relief when she heard her sister agree.
She touched her sisters slightly rough hands and said softly,Wei Wei, did you suffer outside? Youve be darker and youve lost a lot of weight.
Zheng Yuwei smiled and said nonchntly,No, Im fine. Those guys in the military school arent human, but they teach real kung fu. Although Ive lost weight, my body has be healthier and stronger. If you dont believe me, you can touch it. I already have pecs and ABS!
Abdominal muscles were still fine, but as for pectoral muscles ...
Youre a girl, why are you training your chest muscles!
Zheng yuluo was afraid that her sister would be a tomboy. If she lost her breasts, what would she do when she found a boyfriend in the future?
After all, she had been through it and knew more about the things between men and women than Zheng Yuwei.
Men all liked women who were more voluptuous. No one would like a girl whose chest was hard and full of muscles!
They were twins, so they were very close.
Zheng Yuwei asked her to touch her, and Zheng yuluo really did.
When she touched her sisters soft but firm chest and felt her bouncy fullness, Zheng yuluo finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it wasnt her pectoral muscles. It was just that her chest was more perky and bouncy.
Zheng Yuwei was tickled by her sisters touch and couldnt help but giggle. Then, she touched Zheng yuluo mischievously.
Ah, sister, why are yours so big! We were simr in the past, how did yours grow up?
Zheng yuluo immediately blushed. She did not know what was going on, but she would never admit it.
No way! Its still the same as before, yours has be smaller! In the future, dont blindly train your pectoral muscles!
Youre lying! In the past, I was the one who bought you undergarments. Do you think I dont know your size? The size of my undergarments hasnt changed, but you definitely cant fit your old undergarments anymore!
Zheng Yuwei was clueless about the matters between men and women, but that didnt mean she was stupid!
Every change in Zheng yuluos body could not escape her eyes.
Just like how her sister could feel that she had only grown a centimeter taller, she could also feel that her sisters chest had grown bigger.
This is amazing. Sister, what did you eat? why did it be so big?
Zheng Yuwei was extremely curious. She wanted to touch her sisters chest again, but Zheng yuluo covered it tightly and refused to let her touch it.
Sister, how can you be like this? youre too petty! Ive already let you touch mine just now, why wont you let me touch it! Im a girl, your sister. Its okay to touch me!
Not even a younger sister!
This feels weird!
Zheng yuluo reached out and pushed Zheng Yuwei out.Go back to your room to sleep. My bed is too small. Now that youve grown taller, I have no ce to sleep if you lie on it!
Sister, arent you exaggerating? Ive only grown a centimeter taller!
After not seeing her for a few months, Zheng Yuwei had grown a centimeter taller, while Zheng yuluo was still the same height. Now, she was three centimeters shorter than her sister.
If they were to walk out together, others would definitely think that Zheng Yuwei was the older sister.
Its not easy for me toe back. I want to sleep with you!
Zheng Yuwei refused to leave. She giggled and burrowed into Zheng yuluos arms, sweating profusely.
The original pain and bad memories in Zheng yuluos heart were all washed away by her happiness.
It was only at this moment that she felt like an older sister and Zheng Yuwei was a younger sister.
Her personality was a little carefree, and she liked tough and go crazy. Sometimes, she was very childish and liked to y some of the games she yed when she was young.
Sister, Ill call for the wooden figure. Whoever moves will lose!
Zheng yuluo found it a little funny. How old are you? why are you still ying this? This is for children to y with!
Sister, dontugh. Im not done yet. Whoever loses has to let the other party touch their chest!
Zheng yuluo immediately crossed her arms and protested sternly,This wont do!
Then where do you think I should touch?
I cant touch anywhere!
Is it appropriate for a girl to y this?
How about ...
Zheng Yuwei looked at her sisters beautiful figure and smiled with ill intentions.Why dont you just touch my butt!
Zheng yuluos face darkened. What did this girl learn in military school?
She wasnt like this in the past!
The two sistersughed and joked. In the end, Zheng yuluo could not resist her sister, who had received special training, and was touched a few times.
It wasnt untilte at night that the two sisters finally fell asleep, satisfied.
With her younger sister by her side, her heart was very peaceful, and she slept especially soundly.
However, Zheng yuluo did not know that after she fell asleep, Zheng Yuwei quietly got up, changed her clothes, and went out with a gun.
Chapter 1187
Chapter 1187: He is poisonous
Trantor: 549690339
The night was hazy and the moonlight was bright. The dark night was quiet.
Most of the people still on the road were in rental cars.
Zheng Yuwei hailed a taxi and disappeared into the night.
Three in the morning was the time when ones senses were at their weakest, and also the time when one was the slumberest.
Zheng Yuwei carefully avoided the few ck figures outside the vi. She sneaked into the vi and began to look for them one by one.
She searched every room, but Jing Zhi was nowhere to be found.
Where did he go?
Could he have gone out to fool around?
Zheng Yuwei sneered. When she turned around to leave, a white knife was suddenly held to her neck!
What are you looking for? Are you looking for me? Zheng Yuwei!
Jing Zhi!
Zheng Yuwei grabbed Jing Zhis wrist subconsciously and wanted to throw him over her shoulder, but Jing Zhi didnt move an inch even though she had used all her strength.
Instead, because she had used too much force, Jing Zhis knife had left a thin cut on her neck.
Fresh blood gushed out, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood.
Zheng Yuwei didnt know how Jing Zhi recognized her in the dark, but she knew that she was no match for Jing Zhi.
She had thought that she could defeat him after training hard in the military school for so long. But in the end, she didnt even have the strength to fight back!
How was she going to avenge her sister?
She couldnt beat him, and her neck was cut. It hurt so badly that Zheng Yuwei was so angry that she wanted to cry.
She lowered her head and bit Jing Zhis arm.
Zheng Yuwei, youre looking for death! Jing Zhi shouted angrily. Let go!
Zheng Yuwei didnt listen to him at all. She wanted to bite Jing Zhi to death.
Jing Zhi didnt dare to pull his arm out of Zheng Yuweis mouth. He wasnt afraid of pain or a wound, but he was afraid that Zheng Yuwei would die from touching his blood.
He swiftly dislocated Zheng Yuweis jaw with a pa sound and scolded angrily,Idiot! If you want to die, dont drag me down with you. If you die, Zheng yuluo will definitely cry to death! You definitely wont talk to me anymore!
Zheng Yuwei was in so much pain that she felt like her entire chin was not hers anymore!
But she had suffered so much in the military school that she didnt even want to cry. She just red at Jing Zhi, as if he was an unpardonable criminal.
Jing Zhi pressed Zheng Yuwei against the wall and held both of her hands with one hand to stop her from moving. Then, he put her chin back in ce with the other hand.
Zheng Yuwei, are you out of your mind? When I was young, you didnt even dare toe close to me, afraid that I would infect you and kill you all. Howe you dare to bite me now? Im warning you, stay away from me. Dont me me for not warning you if you die from the virus!
Zheng Yuwei quivered and her whole body shivered!
Yes, how could she have forgotten!
He was poisonous!
None of them had yed with Jing Zhi when they were little, because of this.
Didnt she and her sister tie Jing Zhi up and give him away because of this?
His parents had told him countless times to stay away from Jing Zhi, especially when he was injured. They told him not to help him bandage his wounds.
A light bulb went off in Zheng Yuweis head. It wasnt Jing Zhi who was poisonous, it was his blood!
She almost bit Jing Zhis skin just now.
Her lower jaw was still in pain, but Zheng Yuwei had already regained her calm and rationality.
She knew that if Jing Zhi had been any slower, her teeth would have pierced his skin and touched his blood.
She had wanted to take his life, but he had saved her.
Zheng Yuwei didnt know how to describe the feeling in her heart. She suddenly felt that she had be a viin, and the Jing Zhi she hated had be a gentleman.
Thest time she met Jing Zhi, they had been at each others throats. This time, she still wanted to kill him, but Jing Zhi had changed.
He didnt want her to die. He seemed to have be magnanimous and didnt want to argue with her.
Even the cut on her neck just now was caused by her recklessness.
Zheng Yuwei had a sense of powerlessness, as if she had punched hard but hit cotton.
Her mind was in a mess, and she didnt know what to say for a moment.
But Jing Zhi let go of her. He turned on the light in the bedroom and sat down on the chair casually, as if he wasnt on guard against her at all.
When did you return to the country? Yesterday? Or two days ago?
His tone was undisciplined and his voice was light, as if he was chatting with a good friend who he had not seen for a long time!
Zheng Yuwei was a little confused. She looked at Jing Zhi in a daze, seriously suspecting that he had been switched!
When Zheng Yuwei didnt reveal her sharp little ws, when she was at a loss, she was exactly the same as Zheng yuluo!
They were twins and looked almost exactly the same. However, Zheng Yuweis skin was tanned due to long-term training, and she had short hair, which made her look less gentle and more heroic.
At this moment, Zheng Yuwei was simply Zheng yuluo with her hair cut!
Jing Zhi was very angry at first, but when he saw that her face was exactly the same as Zheng Yuwei s, he couldnt beat her up.
Zheng yuluos figure appeared in his mind, and his heart softened a little. Even his tone of voice became less cold.
Youve just returned to the country and youre already here to kill me. You want to seek justice for your sister? Youre overestimating yourself!
As Jing Zhi spoke, he pulled out a gun from somewhere, disassembled it, and threw it on the floor.
What you military schools teach is bullsh * t! Someone like you better not say that you came from a military school. Its embarrassing!
Zheng Yuwei saw the gun in his hand and her face turned pale. She touched her waist and the gun she brought with her was gone!
But she didnt even notice that Jing Zhi had taken her gun away.
Get lost and go home! It wont be toote for you two sisters to kill me after youve figured out the truth! One was more brainless than the other. Werent they quite scheming and good at scheming when they were young? Now that hes grown up, his brain must be filled with dirt!
Jing Zhi got angry as he spoke. Zheng yuluo ran away without making it clear, and Zheng Yuwei came to fight him without knowing anything. Why were the two sisters so stupid?
Zheng Yuwei finally came back to her senses. She red at Jing Zhi with hatred in her eyes and her voice was a little shrill. Youre the one without a brain! You cheated on my sisters heart and slept with another woman. Youre not human! My sister is too naive to be deceived by a scumbag like you!
Veins popped on Jing Zhis forehead,which woman did I f * cking sleep with?! Did you or Zheng yuluo see it?
Bah! Youre shameless! My sister saw you hugging that Xiao Ling at the airport with her own eyes! And it was Xiao Ling who texted my sister to go to the airport to see you two show off your love!

What did you say?
Jing Zhi suddenly stood up and approached Zheng Yuwei. His expression was dark and cold.Say that again!
Zheng Yuwei was shocked by his ruthless look!
She had thought that Jing Zhi had been switched, but now it seemed that he was still the same cold man she had known.
Zheng Yuwei braced herself and said,What are you shouting for? It would be the same even if he said it again! That woman told my sister that the two of you slept together and that youve fallen in love with her. She even personally sent her to the airport and spent money to send her to North America to study! She asked my sister to quit! My sister has seen the affair between you two!
Jing Zhis face turned pale with anger, and his heart and lungs hurt.
His intuition told him that Xiao Ling was not that kind of person, but he also believed Zheng Yuweis words. She would not lie, and there was no need for her to lie.
Then, the problem could only be with Xiao Ling!
He didnt even tell his brother that he had spent money to send Xiao Ling abroad to study. No one knew!
He had borrowed the money from Peter, but Peter did not know where the money was being used.
How did Zheng yuluo know?
Did Xiao Ling really tell her?
At the airport, he had indeed carried Xiao Ling, but Xiao Ling had fallen into his arms when she was caught off guard.
He pushed her away at once.
If he didnt really hate Xiao Lings constant appearance in front of him, he wouldnt have been so free to send her abroad!
Jing Zhis impression of Xiao Ling was that she was a yes-man and an innocent girl.
The first time he saw her was in a bar where everyone was wild and unrestrained. Only she was like a clear stream, determined to protect her innocence and refused to be tainted.
She was even a little foolish and filial. She would rather suffer by herself to work to support the family.
At first, when he wanted to touch her hand, she would avoid it in a panic and would not even sit down to drink with him.
How could a Xiao Ling like this say that they had slept together? Why would he let Zheng yuluo quit?
Jing Zhi frowned and said coldly,Zheng yuluo has misunderstood. There is nothing going on between me and Xiao Ling. I sent her overseas because I hate her, not because I like her!
Zheng Yuwei sneered,Jingzhi, do you think everyone is a fool? Only my sister, who is so devoted to you, would believe your nonsense. Please make up a better reason for me!
She was certain that Jing Zhi was cheating on her and that he wasnt a good person. He had been acting all high and mighty, but he had been lying to her.
Her heart ached when she thought of how her sister had almost drowned.
Also, your Xiao Ling got someone to do something behind my back and pushed my sister into the peace Lake of X University. If my father hadnt arrived in time, she would have been dead! Its all your fault, dont go looking for my sister again! You have plenty of women, and she has plenty of men who like her!
What?! Jing Zhi was shocked.
He didnt know about this at all!
Could this be Xiao Lings doing?
That was impossible!
Why would Xiao Ling kill someone?
Usually, she would only let others bully her and would not even fight back!
Thats impossible. Xiao Ling would never kill your sister. Shes only seen your sister once!
Even Jing Zhi, a killer who was numb to killing, didnt have such a cruel heart.
He still did not believe that Xiao Ling would do such a thing.
You must be mistaken. Someone else killed your sister!
Zheng Yuwei looked at Jing Zhi in disbelief. Her eyes suddenly turned red and her nose sniffled. She felt sad for her twin sister.
In fact, she was not sure if it was Xiao Ling who had done it to her sister. Zheng yuluo had also said that it was probably not Xiao Ling.
But Zheng Yuwei didnt expect that Jing Zhi didnt know what had happened at all. He didnt even ask anything and just said that they had made a mistake!
Isnt he too protective of Xiao Ling?
If he had even the slightest bit of love for his sister, shouldnt his first reaction be to ask how she was doing?
His sister almost lost her life, and it happened after she had an argument with him. Did he not care at all?
Even if there was no evidence to back up her words, if he loved his sister, he should be suspicious of Xiao Ling no matter who the murderer was!
Zheng Yuwei felt as if all her strength had been sucked out of her in an instant. She felt lucky that it wasnt her sister who hade to confront Jing Zhi today. Even she felt terrible in her heart. If her sister had listened to Jing Zhi, her heart would have broken!
She wasnt in the mood to fight with Jing Zhi anymore. Was he worth it?
Jing Zhi,
Zheng Yuwei slowly called out his name and said indifferently,You know what? Ever since you went missing, my sisters entire life has been dedicated to you.
She felt that she had let you down and had wanted to end her life many times. She was a light sleeper because every time she fell asleep, she would have nightmares. She dreamed that she had personally sent you into a fire pit.
She has depression and used to need counseling from a psychiatrist. Ever since she found you, she no longer needs to rely on a psychiatrist.
We were originally the same height, but look, Im three centimeters taller than her now. This is rare among identical twins. Because all her attention is on you, she has to be forced to eat.
She didnt know that I was here today. She didnt want me toe and settle scores with you because she was afraid that I would suffer a loss, but she was even more afraid that you would get hurt!
When she was unconsciousst night, she called out your name. Dont you think itsughable? she didnt call her parents and sister who loved her the most, but she kept thinking about a heartless person like you!
My father disapproves of her dating you. He doesnt even allow her to get close to you. My dad only has two daughters. If my sister goes with you, Im afraid Ill be the only one left.
Zheng Yuwei nagged a lot. She didnt avoid the mistakes they made when they were young. She talked about Zheng yuluos unusual life in the past few years and her deep affection for Jing Zhi.
She nced at Jing Zhi and said,whats so good about you? Youre not gentle, and you dont love her. You only know how to be fierce, and youre even fooling around with other women. What does she like about you?
It was undeniable that Jing Zhi was a good-looking man. He was so handsome that women could fall head over heels for him.
There was a kind of cold and evil temperament intertwined on his body, which made people fear him, but they could not help but want to get close to him.
But Zheng Yuwei knew that her sister didnt like Jing Zhi for his looks. She loved him for who he was.
The room was silent for a long time before Zheng Yuwei spoke again,Jing Zhi, I have a favor to ask of you.
Jing Zhis brows were tightly furrowed. He looked up and said,What is it?
I beg you, let my sister go and disappear from her world!
Chapter 1189
Chapter 1189: Suspicion
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi suddenlyughed. Hisughter was deranged and mocking.
Zheng Yuwei, you told me a lot of things about how much Zheng yuluo loved me, and then you want me to give up on her? Your scheming hasnt deteriorated at all!
He looked at Zheng Yuweis pretty face and said word by word,I cant let her go!
She cant tell right from wrong and doesnt even have the most basic trust in me. How dare she question me?
Jing Zhi was in a terrible mood. If he really fell in love with another woman, Zheng Yuwei could say whatever she wanted to him.
But in reality?
He only had one woman, Zheng yuluo, until now!
He hoped that he was a yboy and that he would hang out with different women every day. If he wasnt loyal, he wouldnt be hurt by love!
Jing Zhi had never thought that he would one day be a man whose heart and mind were all moved by a woman.
You hugged another woman at the airport and even spent money to send her abroad to study. Do you dare to say that theres nothing going on between you two? My sister saw it with her own eyes, and that woman deliberately let her see it. If my sister still trusts you, how stupid is she?
Zheng Yuwei was so angry that her fingers trembled. She felt that every sentence she spoke to Jing Zhi would cost her a year of life.
The sky was already starting to light up. Zheng Yuwei didnt dare to stay here with Jing Zhi any longer. If her sister woke up in the morning and saw that she was gone, she would guess that she was here to see Jing Zhi.
Dont pester my sister anymore!
Zheng Yuwei left Jing Zhis house and took a taxi home.
She was still a little worried about how to exin to Zheng yuluo and her family about the sudden wound on her neck. She couldnt say that she had cut herself in a dream, right?
After Zheng Yuwei left, Jing Zhi was left alone in the empty vi. Even his heart felt empty.
It was as if a corner of her heart was missing. It hurt a little, and blood was dripping out.
Jing Zhi went downstairs to the emptier living room. He poured himself a ss of cold water and finished it in one gulp. Then he started to contact people in North America to get him Xiao Lings contact number.
He had to ask Xiao Ling if those things were true!
If it was true, he would definitely make her regret living in this world!
The person who dared to use him had not been born yet!
However, the reply he got from the North American side was that Xiao Ling did not have a phone at all!
She studied and worked at the same time. The money she earned could barely feed herself, so how could she have the money to buy a phone? Even if he bought a phone, he wouldnt be able to afford the monthly phone bill.
Jing Zhi suddenly remembered that Xiao Ling didnt have a phone. He had never seen her use it in China.
A mobile phone was now a necessity in the lives of ordinary people. Basically, everyone had one. Xiao Ling did not have one, and he had never noticed it before.
But ...
If Xiao Ling didnt have a phone, who sent Zheng yuluo a message?
Zheng Yuwei said that Zheng yuluo had been pushed into theke by someone. If Xiao Ling did not have a phone, how could she order others to do things?
Jing Zhi was full of doubts. He believed Zheng Yuweis words, but she might not be objective and what she said might not be true.
At least from what he knew, there were people who could imitate a person very, very well.
Liao Wei had once been Jing Ruis body double for a long time without anyone finding out. Wasnt that a good example?
However, even if Jing Zhi did notpletely trust Zheng yuluo, he had already nted the seed of suspicion in his heart toward my.
Xiao Ling was just a person he met by chance after a conflict with Zheng yuluo. So many things had happened after that, and Jing Zhi didnt dare to get close to other women anymore.
The woman was as fierce as a Tiger. This was not false at all.
As for Zheng yuluo, Jing Zhi was still worried about her. He med himself, but he didnt show it in front of Zheng Yuwei.
If she had caught up with Zheng yuluo and stopped her, she might not have fallen into the water.
She loved to cry so much. She must have been frightened when she was suddenly pushed into theke.
It was a pity that the sky was already bright. Otherwise, he would definitely take advantage of the night to find Zheng yuluo and see how she was doing.
It wasnt convenient for him to go to her during the day, so Jing Zhi used all his energy to investigate Xiao Ling.
On the first day he met Xiao Ling, Jing Rui had already done some research on her. The results showed that she was just an ordinary poor girl with a clean background and simple connections.
Jing Zhi didnt think that his brothers investigation would be wrong, but if the other party came prepared, his brothers investigation might only have found the surface.
Jing Zhi didnt need to do the investigation himself, but he didnt have enough manpower, so the progress was slow.
Jing Zhi had never felt that he didnt have enough men. He had even thought that his brother was wasting his resources by spending millions on so many people.
However, reality proved that her brothers decision was correct.
Jing Zhi was in dire need of money and manpower.
He suddenly realized that he actually had nothing-he had no family business, no means to make a living, and he was forced to make-living by killing people.
Every word that Zheng Yuwei said today had pierced Jing Zhis heart.
She had said that Zheng Jing didnt agree with Zheng yuluo dating him. From a fathers point of view, she was right.
What did he have?
He had nothing!
Zheng Jing must have known that he was a killer. He was afraid that he would kill Zheng yuluo in a fit of anger.
Jing Zhi had never thought of giving up on Zheng yuluo. There was nothing between him and Xiao Ling. His heart and body had never betrayed his love. He hoped that he could give Zheng yuluo a stable life in the future, or at least not worry about money.
Earning money was what men should do. Those who waited at home for their women to earn money and raise their children were all men who lived off women. Jing Zhi looked down on such people.
For the first time, he wanted to learn from Jing Rui. He wanted to learn how to run apany, how to deal with people, and how to run a team.
However, these things could not be rushed. The most important thing now was to figure out Xiao Lings matter.
So, Jing Zhi had his men take Xiao Ling back to A city by force after a week of school.
Regardless of whether there was something wrong with Xiao Ling, it was better to keep her under his watch. If he left her abroad, he wouldnt be able to find out what she was up to.
Moreover, since Zheng yuluo didnt like him sending Xiao Ling abroad to study, he would let here back.
Compared to Zheng yuluo, Xiao Ling was insignificant in Jing Zhis heart.
Jing Zhi didnt pick Xiao Ling up himself this time, but asked Jing Ruis men to pick her up.
She was brought directly to Jing Zhis Vi. He stood on the high steps and watched the weak figure walk in through the gate.
Chapter 1190
Chapter 1190: Your girlfriend came to me
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi had experienced the dark side of human nature more than anyone else.
He clearly knew that one could not judge a person by their appearance, but he was confident in his intuition and judgment. Would a pure and miserable little girl like Xiao Ling kill someone?
What was her motive for killing?
If she had really done it, Jing Zhi could only admire her acting skills.
He watched as Xiao mo approached him step by step, his eyes indifferent.
She was still wearing the old clothes she had worn when she went to North America. They didnt fit her well and had been washed until her hair was white. However, the clothes were clean, like her, like a piece of unpolluted white paper.
She looked a little better than when she left. Obviously, she had eaten well in North America.
She was working in a Chinese restaurant. The boss thought that she was pretty and hardworking. She had three full meals a day, and they were all very sumptuous.
Her long hair fell over her shoulders, her figure was slender, her skin was white and delicate, and her exquisite and beautiful face had a kind of luster. The old clothes on her body could not hide her beauty.
She had be even more beautiful in just a week!
Jing Zhi used to think that Xiao Ling was an independent and independent girl who wouldnt easily sell her soul and body, but Xiao Ling was still living a poor life despite her evil looks.
But now, he was very suspicious.
Putting everything else aside, how did Xiao Ling manage to protect herself in such aplicated environment on her own?
In terms of schemes and intelligence, Shuyin was way better than Xiao Ling. But as smart as Shuyin was, she had no choice but to seek Jing Ruis protection when she first revealed her beautiful face at the age of fifteen!
Xiao Lings ability to protect herself was far worse than Shuyin s, but she was actually able to stay safe and sound all this time!
Why didnt I notice such an important thing before?!
Xiao Ling had always been a sensitive person, so she was able to sense Jing Zhis coldness and indifference. She walked to Jing Zhis side helplessly, not knowing what she had done to make him angry.
The wind blew her long, silk-like hair, and a few strands of hair brushed against her fair face. Her eyes were as clear as spring water, and when she looked at Jing Zhi, there was an indescribable emotion in them.
When a persons beauty reached a certain level, even nature would extend an olive branch to her.
The White butterflies that hadnded on the flowers in the garden left the gorgeous flowers in groups of three to five and came to Xiao Mos side. They fluttered in the wind between her raised hair.
The beauty was like a painting, and the scenery was like a poem.
If Xiao Ling was wearing a pure white dress right now, she would definitely look like a fairy that was above themon popce.
Xiao mo didnt care about the butterflies at all. She seemed to be used to this kind of scene. She just stood there helplessly, waiting for Jing Zhis order.
Jing Zhis heart wavered when he saw her delicate yet timid look.
Would such a girl, who was afraid of everything she did, be the extremely scheming and ruthless person who wanted Zheng yuluo dead?
Jing Zhi was a few steps away from my. He asked in a cold voice,Do you know why I asked you toe back?
Xiao mo shook his head, a faint look of fear on his face.
In fact, she was already terrified that Jing Zhi would send her to study in North America.
She didnt want to go abroad. First of all, her English was really bad. When she went abroad, she wouldnt even be able to understand what others were saying, let alone listen to the teachers lessons.
Secondly, if she left, who would help her take care of her younger siblings at home?
She knew how unreliable her parents were. She was worried that her parents would sell her younger brother and sister out if they were forced into a corner.
Were you the one who told Zheng yuluo that we were together?
Xiao Mos eyes widened in shock.No, no, no, I didn t!
You told her that I slept with you?
Ive never said anything like that!
You were the one who told Zheng yuluo that I was sending you abroad to study? You were the one who called her to the airport, right?
Xiao mo couldnt help but take two steps back. Her expression was filled with disbelief and even her voice trembled slightly,What are you saying? Ive never spoken to your girlfriend before!
She finally understood what Jing Zhi was asking her.
He suspected that she had ruined his rtionship with Zheng yuluo!
Xiao Ling, I dont think Ive ever told you my girlfriends name, Jing Zhi said with a cold smile. How did you know that Zheng yuluo is my girlfriend?
Xiao Mos face turned pale, but she bit her lip and refused to speak.
If you dont give me a reasonable exnation today, dont even think about leaving this vi!
Xiao mo shivered in fear. The Jing Zhi in front of her was very different from the Jing Zhi she had seen before. He looked fierce and cold, as if he was going to skin her alive!
I ... I, I, Ill tell you!
Her teeth were chattering, and she couldnt even speak properly.
Its ... Its your girlfriend who came to me. She told me to stay away from you. She said ... Im not good enough for you and that I shouldnt dream of it ...
As Xiao mo spoke, his voice became lower.
Im not dreaming, she said softly.Your girlfriend misunderstood. I told her that there was nothing between us, but she didnt believe me.
Jing Zhi was stunned.
He had waited for a long time, but he had never expected to receive such an answer!
He was so angry that heughed!
If Jing Zhi was suspicious of Xia Lings behavior, Zheng yuluo would not.
He didnt believe that Zheng yuluo would do such a thing!
Xiaozhi, if you dont want to tell the truth, I have ways to make you. Its not a wise move to frame Zheng yuluo.
Im telling the truth!Xiao mo said in a panic. Im not lying to you!
Jing Zhi smiled coldly. This was going to be the biggest drama of the year!
The two women were ming each other in the same way. Did they think he was an idiot?
Jing Zhi waved his hand, and two Men in ck appeared out of nowhere. Each of them grabbed mys arms.
Xiao mo was so scared that she turned around and wanted to run, but she was no match for these two people.
She kneeled on the ground and begged Jing Zhi.Jing Zhi, Im telling you the truth. Please let me go. I didnt tell your girlfriend anything and I didnt mean to pester you. Please, let me go home!
Jing Zhi waved his hands at his two subordinates.Take her to the basement. If she doesnt tell the truth, shell starve until she tells the truth! If youre not honest, just beat him up, just dont kill him.
Xiao mo was so scared that her face turned pale. Her tears fell like rain, and her voice was sad and deste.Jing Zhi, your girlfriend really dide to me! Its in a caf. If you dont believe me, you can ask! I beg you to let me go. I will never appear in front of you again. Please!

Chapter 1191: You dont care about me at all!
Trantor: 549690339
Xiao Ling was taken away by Jing Zhis men in the end. She wouldnt be tortured, but she wouldnt have an easy time either.
Jing Zhi had always been a ruthless man. Seven years of being a killer and a test subject had made him cold and ruthless.
In terms of ruthlessness and coldness, Jing Zhi and Jing Rui were almost on par. The two brothers did not care about the life and death of others.
Jing Zhi had been soft-hearted to my at first because she had reminded him of Zheng yuluo when she cried.
But now, he had already realized that Xiao Ling was Xiao Ling, and Zheng yuluo was Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhi personally went to the caf that my had mentioned to verify it. The staff at the caf seemed to have a deep impression of both my and Zheng yuluo. As soon as Jing Zhi mentioned them, the staff immediately remembered.
That was because the entire cafe had been reserved that day, and only Zheng yuluo and Xiao Ling were inside!
Jing Zhi asked for a long time, but when he came out of the coffee shop, he still had no clue.
The person who had booked the caf was an anonymous person. It was impossible to determine if it was Xiao Ling or Zheng yuluo who had done it.
But Jing Zhi didnt think that either of them would book the entire caf to talk.
Xiao Ling did not have the financial ability. If she had money, she would definitely not be in this state. Whether she was poor or not was not something that could be faked.
She would inadvertently show her amazement at money. For example, when he bought her food for more than a hundred Yuan, she would be in awe and feel that it was too expensive.
Jing Zhi had been to her house, and she was so poor that she couldnt even afford to eat.
It was impossible for Zheng yuluo to book the entire caf to talk to Xiao Ling. Although she came from a good family, she was not the kind of girl who would spend money recklessly.
Furthermore, she did not even have the intention to take the initiative to look for Xiao Ling.
However, Xiao mo and Zheng yuluo had met that day, so there was no doubt about it.
Jing Zhi had already seen the cafs surveince video. The video was a little blurry, and he could only see that my had her head lowered the entire time, looking a little helpless. Zheng yuluo sat there without changing her posture from beginning to end. She was obviously in a bad mood.
The whole thing was soplicated that it was beyond Jing Zhis ability.
He drove to Jing Ruis Vi.
Jing Rui had been working hard for a week since he took over Jingsheng enterprise.
He only slept for a short while every day when he was extremely tired. He had been working for more than 20 hours, and he didnt even have time to take care of Shuyin. In the past few days, Shuyin had been taking care of him.
Every day, she would prepare the clothes, shoes, socks, and even a tie for him to wear tomorrow. At night, she would work with him for a while and prepare all kinds of supper with the chef.
In order not to distract him, Shuyin would leave the vi at around 10 O clock every night and go to her hotel to sleep. In the day, she would go to school or the hospital to do new viral research, and at night, she would go to the vi to deal with some trivial matters for Jing Rui.
And because they were about to get engaged, Jing Rui had to do a lot of things himself, and Shuyin only needed to give advice.
Jing Rui was not surprised to see Jing Zhi. He continued to flip through the documents and said calmly,Youve brought your Xiao Ling back? It seems that someone who wants to borrow money and send it abroad does have some weight.
Brother, do you also think that theres something going on between me and Xiao Ling? Jing Zhi asked, surprised.
Jing Rui finally looked away from the documents and frowned at Jing Zhi.You dont have any?
Jing Zhi rubbed his hair in frustration.No, I dont like her.
Yes.
Jing Rui said nonchntly and then went back to reading the documents.
It didnt matter to Jing Rui who Jing Zhi liked. It didnt matter whether he liked Xiao Ling or not. What was important was that Jing Zhi was happy.
However, it seemed that Jing Zhi was not happy about it.
But what did this have to do with him?
He was not the one in love!
He didnt even have the time to coax his own woman, how could he have the time to care about other women!
Jing Zhi saw that his brother had only responded with an okay, so he snatched the document from his brother.Brother, Im talking to you! Stop looking! Which is more important, me or thepany? You dont care about me at all!
Jing Rui shook his head helplessly.
His younger brother had even snatched Shuyins lines!
Shuyin didntin after being busy for so many days, but Jing Zhi did!
What kind of debt did he owe this younger brother in his past life!
Jing Rui pointed at the empty cup in front of him and said,Go get me some water!
Jing Zhi immediately poured him a ss of water and handed it to Jing Rui.Brother, I know youre busy, but I wouldnt have been able to solve this without you! You have to help me, Im your blood brother!
I dont have an unreliable brother like you. You and Jing Xi are biological siblings, arent you? Each one is more troublesome than thest!
Jing Xi had been torturing mu Sens girlfriend recently. All kinds of viruses had taken turns, but they did not cause much damage to her body. She just had blisters of all sizes on her face, which hurt at the touch.
And she had hallucinations every now and then. Sometimes, she could not even tell people apart and mistook Mu Qing for mu Sen. She kept calling Mu Qing dear, which made Mu Qings face turn ck for a few days.
Mu Sens so-called girlfriend was Jing Ruis woman. He could not even exin to his men that he had been tortured so badly by his sister.
Fortunately, Shuyin was very good at treating all kinds of viruses and quickly cured the female subordinates face.
It was because of this that Jing Xi waspletely grounded and had not gone out for three days.
Of course, Jing Zhi didnt know that Jing Xi had gotten into trouble again, but he knew that this girl wouldnt stop. But he felt that he was different from Jing Xi. He was so obedient!
Brother, quickly help me check on Xiao Ling. I suspect that theres something wrong with her!
Jing Rui frowned as he drank the water. Ive investigated her before, her background is clean, theres nothing suspicious about her.
Jing Rui would investigate everything that tried to get close to Jing Zhi, but Jing Zhi didnt know about it.
Jing Zhi smiled bitterly and told Jing Rui everything that had happened recently.
Jing Rui only realized that it was a story about two women fighting over a man.
He stood up and walked away,youre the one who caused this mess, so you should clean it up yourself! My woman has been busy taking care of my life for the past few days, and I dont have time to apany her, but Im here listening to you tell stories about you and your two women! If you say it again, Ill send someone to kill those two women!
He had thought that something big had happened, but it turned out to be just a woman fighting for love and scheming against each other!
This was Jing Zhis love affair, and it had nothing to do with him.

Don t, brother!
Jing Zhi got up and followed Jing Rui into the room. He covered Jing Rui with the nket when he saw him resting on the bed.
Jing Rui opened his eyes and said,get lost! Go back to your own home! I cant even sleep well when I see you!
Jing Zhi didnt mind his brothers scolding at all. After all, his brother had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He could tolerate Jing Zhi without any limits.
Instead of leaving, he took off his shoes andy on the bed. He leaned against Jing Rui and said,Brother, lets sleep together!
Shuyin heard this as soon as she went upstairs. When she entered Jing Ruis room and saw the two men lying side by side, she almost thought that she was seeing things.
She blinked her eyes and burst intoughter when she saw Jing Ruis face.You two brothers have a good sleep, I wont disturb you anymore!
Jing Rui wanted to strangle Jing Zhi.
He immediately said,Yinyin,e back! Dont go!
Shuyins face peeked out from the crack in the door again, and there was an obvious smile in her eyes.Im not leaving, Ill be downstairs. However, this bedroom is a little small, while the master bedroom on the south side is bigger and has a good atmosphere. You should move to that side!
After she finished speaking, she went downstairs with a smile.
Jing Ruis mood was lifted when he heard Shu Yinsughter.
He looked at Jing Zhi and kicked him in the leg.Hurry up and leave, my woman is here!
Brother, she hasnt even be my sister-inw yet, and you dont want your little brother anymore? Jing Zhi cried. You have a woman to apany you, but I don t! Quickly help me investigate Xiao Lings matter!
You have two women to apany you, isnt that enough? Do you need me to give you another one?
Where are the two women! Now, theres none. Zheng yuluo doesnt even talk to me. Im on guard against Xiao Ling! If you give me another one ...
If you dont leave, Ill give you two!
I ...
Three!
Alright, alright, alright. Ill leave. Ill leave, alright?
Jing Zhi was on the verge of tears. He couldnt even handle two of them, let alone three.
He had thought that Jing Rui would help him after hearing hisints, but he had failed this time.
Her brother waspletely unmoved!
Womens jealousy was a small matter, so he didnt care?
Sigh, jealousy can also lead to disaster!
Jing zhichen went downstairs and saw Shuyin eating an orange in the living room. He said with a bitter face,My brother only has you in his heart now. He even gave my Cheng to you. Are you satisfied?
Shu Yin smiled brightly, her white teeth seemingly shining.Im satisfied! He was very satisfied! Arent you going to leave? If you dont leave now, your Xiao Ling is going to get impatient!
Shuyin didnt know about the rtionship between Jing Zhi and my, but she knew that Jing Zhi liked Zheng yuluo, so she used my to provoke him.
As expected, Jing Zhis face turned cold. Dont mention her, this girl might be a liar!
Yo, you can be deceived by others too! Sigh, men are all the same. When they like another girl, they say that shes lying to you and refuse to admit their mistakes.
Shuyins eyes darted around, and she suddenly said,It seems that I cant get engaged to Jing Rui so soon. What if he likes someone else in the future? Maybe if he likes her, hell say that he was pestered by girls!
Jing Zhi was shocked.
If Shuyin didnt want to get engaged to her brother because of this, her brother would definitely break his legs!
No, no, no, Im an exception! It has nothing to do with my brother. My brother only has you in his heart!
Jing Zhi sneaked away as soon as he finished speaking. He was afraid that Shuyin might not be able to connect the dots.
This was not a joke. A womans imagination was too wild. If Jing Rui was tricked, he would be dead!
However, when he walked to his car, he saw three beautiful women sitting in it!
How did you guys get in? Get out here!
Jing Zhi scolded them, but the three girls didnt take it to heart.
The one in the front passenger seat was young, beautiful, and lively. Her red lips opened slightly, and she smiled as she said in a pleasant voice,
Young master Zhi, my name is Qing Ling, the slim one behind me is Qing Ying, and the curvy one is Qing Tian. The three of us will be serving you in the future. The boss said that its fine if you dont like the three of us. You can tell him tomorrow and hell definitely give us three more beautiful girls!
As soon as Qing Ling finished speaking, Qing Ying and Qing Tian said in unison,Hello, master Zhi, lets go home!
Jing Zhis vision darkened and he almost passed out.
The girl had called him boss, so it must be Jing Rui!
Her brother was actually serious!
Was this not giving him a way out?
Sure, the three of them loved to sit in his car, right?
Then he didnt want this car anymore!
Jing Zhi strode out, but after a few steps, he realized that the car was following him.
The car keys were clearly with him, so how could they drive?
Qing Ling had already gotten into the drivers seat. She waved at Jing Zhi with a smile when she saw him turn around.The three of us are afraid of the sun, so we wont take a walk with you. Take your time, well go home first!
After she finished speaking, she quickly drove her sports car out. The two people in the back seat even cheered,were home! She didnt seem to care about Jing Zhi at all.
Jing Zhis heart sank. Oh no, his brother had given him three ancestors!
Shuyin leaned on the window and watched themotion. She didnt mind the trouble and shouted,Jing Zhi, youre so lucky! The Three Sisters are rare beauties, youve struck it rich! Come often in the future! Its a good deal to bring three back!
Jing Zhis face turned green. He red at Shu Yin and left in a hurry.
If they dyed any further, there would be more than three people to be brought back today!
Shuyinughed so hard that she couldnt stand up as she watched Jing Zhi leave. Jing Rui was too cruel!
As sheughed, she was suddenly wrapped in a warm embrace from behind.
A familiar masculine scent hit her in the face, and Shu Yin turned her head slightly.Youre not sleeping?
Yes, but I cant sleep alone. I need someone to sleep with me.
Shuyinughed.Jing Zhi was fine sleeping with you just now. Why did you chase him away?
Because youre here, hes an eyesore!
Jing Rui said as he bit Shuyins earlobe and carried her up.
Shuyin was shocked.What are you doing?!
Im sleeping!
No, no, no, I still have things to do. Im leaving!
Shuyins face turned red, and she struggled to escape.
But Jing Rui held her tightly and walked up the stairs steadily.
Seeing that he actually carried her into the master bedroom facing south, Shuyin became even more flustered.Why are you sleeping in this room?
Didnt you say that this room has a good atmosphere?
Chapter 1193
Chapter 1193: Do you like it?
Trantor: 549690339
Of course, the atmosphere in this room is good!
This was the master bedroom that had been prepared for their engagement!
Jing Rui had picked out the tablemps and decorated the room. The bed sheets were all red, and it looked like a new house.
Shuyin was just teasing the two brothers earlier, which was why she asked them to sleep here.
She had thought that Jing Rui would not ask to sleep in this room until after the engagement, but she had to sleep here today!
Shuyin was still panicking when Jing Rui suddenly smiled and put her on the bed. He touched her hair and said in a low voice,Dont be nervous, Im just hugging you to sleep. Dont think too much.
As he spoke, heid down beside Shuyin and wrapped his arm around her slender waist. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. Then, he really fell asleep with Shuyin in his arms.
Shuyin waited for a while, but he didnt do anything. She looked up and saw that he had already fallen asleep.
Even a machine couldnt stand the continuous high-intensity work, let alone a person.
Shuyins heart ached a little. She didnt feel that charming and shy feeling anymore. She leaned quietly in his arms and listened to his breathing. She couldnt help but kiss his chin.
It was daytime and she had no sses in the afternoon. She did not go to the hospital to do the viral research and came here to apany Jing Rui.
She was not sleepy, but she liked the feeling of Jing Rui sleeping beside her. It was peaceful and warm.
The two of them were so close together that Shu Yin could feel his strong heartbeat and his scorching temperature through his thin clothes.
Shuyin looked at Jing Ruis face, which was so close to hers, and sighed at his perfection.
His facial features were sharp and perfect. His skin was very good, but he had never taken care of it. His eyshes were long, but he hadined about it before. asionally, they would fall on his eyes and make them very ufortable.
Shuyin looked at him. Thinking about how she was about to get engaged to this man, she felt a little excited.
His lips were very good-looking. They were not too big or too small. They were light red and had the unique sexiness of a man, which made Shuyin a little tempted.
She held it in for a while, but in the end, she couldnt hold it in and was still bewitched. She moved closer to him and kissed him.
He was asleep and wouldnt know anyway, so it was good to take advantage of him!
Shuyin tried to kiss him, but Jing Rui didnt respond, so she kissed him again.
She kissed him again and again, never tired of it. It was as if she had just gotten a new toy, and she kept testing the bottom line of this toy.
Jing Rui was still in a deep sleep. Shuyin was finally satisfied after kissing him for a long time. She closed her eyes in his arms and started to tame the sheep.
Shuyin woke up again. It was a kiss.
Jing Ruis kiss was gentle, but when he saw that she was awake, his kiss became overbearing and crazy, as if he wanted to eat Shuyin up.
His teeth bit Shuyins lips and he mumbled,Do you like it?
Actually, she did like it. She liked this kind of entangled love and liked to be kissed by him domineeringly.
But Shuyin said in a delicate voice,It hurts ...
Jing Rui let go of her red and swollen lips and reached into her clothes.
His hand had just touched the skin around Shuyins waist, and it made her shiver inexplicably. Her heart beat faster instantly, and her skin quickly turned a light pink.
Shu Yin hurriedly stopped his hand.Dont move. Otherwise, Ill leave!
I thought you were hungry and wanted to satisfy your needs, Jing Rui chuckled.
These four words were really embarrassing. Shu Yin retorted with a red face,Nonsense, Im not!
No, you just secretly kissed me for half an hour?
Shu Yin was stunned.You know?!
How could I not know? you kissed me too hard and your technique wasnt very good. Havent I taught you many times? Why havent you learned it yet?
Shuyins face instantly flushed red, and she was so embarrassed that she couldnt even lift her head.
He had actually been caught!
It was too embarrassing!
She bit Jing Ruis chest and said,Youre so annoying. Why didnt you tell me you were awake?
Jing Ruiughed so hard at her cute and shy look. He gently pinched Shuyins chin and said in a low voice,I just wanted to see how far you can go. If you want to F * ck me, I can take the opportunity to cooperate with you!
What was this? how could she ...
Shuyin and Jing Ruiughed and joked around. If she didnt know that he had work to deal with, they would have yed until dark.
While the two of them were fighting, Jing Zhis side wasnt peaceful either.
He took a taxi home. When he saw the three girls with their own unique characteristics making a scene at home, he suddenly had a splitting headache!
Go, go, go, all of you go to the side! Without my permission, no one is allowed to enter!
The three girls were not afraid of Jing Zhis cold face at all. They had been working for Jing Rui for a long time, and Jing Rui was much scarier than Jing Zhi when he was cold.
Young master Zhi, youre too cruel. We came in to help you clean up the house and provide you with entertainment. Were here to make you happy. Dont you think this house is much cleaner?
If you kick us out, the three of us will have to sleep on the streets. Do you have the heart to do that?
I heard that you have a tender heart for women, why are you so fierce today? Im so scared!
Jing Zhis head hurt from all the noise the three of them made.
Although these three people had their own characteristics, overall, they were just like their names, belonging to the fresh style. In addition, the three of them deliberately acted coquettishly and pretended to be weak, and all of them were somewhat simr to Zheng yuluos style!
Jing Zhi knew that Jing Rui was punishing him on purpose.
Didnt he like someone like Zheng yuluo?
Then, he would give him a bunch of beautiful women like Zheng yuluo. In the future, he would definitely have enough resistance against such women!
Perhaps, he would not like Zheng yuluo as well!
Her brother had put in so much effort, but Jing Zhi didnt like the same designs. He only liked the original!
He took a second look at girls like Zheng yuluo only because of her, not because they were pure and pleasant.
However, after the incident with Xiao mo and the three Qing Ling sisters relentless attacks today, he waspletely immune to this kind of woman!
Having too many women was not a good thing!
Jing Rui would not have sent three women to make trouble for him, but the three of them were so pretty that they did not seem to have received any special training.
Jing Zhi chased the Three Sisters out impatiently. The Three Sisters pouted their lips in grievance. As they walked out, they whispered to Jing Zhi,Are you a man or not? how can you drive a woman out? Could it be that youre afraid that you cant satisfy us three sisters, so youre pretending not to like us?
If the three girls were not Jing Ruis men, Jing Zhi would have beaten them up.

Chapter 1194: Three strong men
Trantor: 549690339
The Three Sisters were chased out, and the house was finally quiet.
After dark, Jing Zhi went to the garden for a walk, but the three of them were nowhere to be seen.
He did not care where the three of them slept at night. Jing Ruis men must have their own strengths, and Jing Rui never kept useless people.
It would be fine as long as the three of them did not sleep in his bedroom.
When she got up the next day, the Three Sisters came back with dewdrops on their bodies.
The three of them were sitting on the sofa in the living room, eating their hamburgers and fries. When they saw Jing Zhiing down, they greeted him warmly,Hi, master Zhi, do you want to eat together?
Jing Zhis face darkened,who let you in? Get lost!
Qing Ling shook her head and sighed.s, the three of us have been busy the whole night to help you keep an eye on your Xiao mo and Xiao Luo. In the end, we can only eat simple fast food and dont even have a ce to sit!
Qing Ying immediately replied with tears in her eyes,Sister, lets go. Master Zhi doesnt like us. Why do we have to suffer? if I knew this would happen, I wouldnt have liked him. Im going to suffer in the future if I fall in love with someone without a heart!
Qing Tian pretended to wipe away Qing Yings non-existent tears and also looked like she was crying,My good sister, dont cry. The enemy willugh! We have to be strong, Xiao Ling and Xiao Luo are nothing, well just ask boss to get rid of them for us!
The Three Sisters acting was so good that it was obvious that they had been working together for a long time. There was no trace of pretense at all, but Jing Zhi knew that they were all acting!
The three of them were simr in temperament, but each had their own features. It was obvious that they were not biological sisters, and Jing Rui must have cultivated them into a group of sisters in theter stages.
The effect of duping in a group was definitely much better than duping alone!
However, no matter how the three of them acted, Jing Zhi finally realized why his brother had given him these three girls.
Indeed, it was not easy to arouse suspicion if a girl went to Zheng yuluo and Xiao Mos side to keep an eye on them, especially when they were three beauties who were so good at acting.
The three beautiful girls were here to work for him. Jing Zhi cheered up immediately and ordered the chef from Jing Rui to prepare breakfast for the four of them.
Her brother did not leave her alone!
He was indeed her brother!
Jing Zhi sat down on the sofa across from the three of them. He cupped his fists and said,Three warriors, please tell me about Xiao mo and Xiao Luo. Ill be very grateful!
The three girls rolled their eyes at him in unison!
Who are you calling a hero?
Other than the three of them who were slightly plump, the other two were very slim. How were they strong?
Jing Zhis warrior had offended all three of them. They grabbed their burgers and fries and walked out one by one. They didnt even eat the breakfast he had prepared.
Jing Zhi sat there in a daze. He didnt know how hed angered the three of them. He thought theyd left in a fit of anger, but in fact, theyd just finished their food in a hurry and went back to keeping an eye on him.
The three of them had their own responsibilities. Qing Ling was responsible for keeping an eye on Zheng yuluo. First, it was to prevent her from getting into another ident. Second, it was to find out who she was in contact with.
Jing Zhi trusted Zheng yuluo, but Jing Rui did not trust her. In his eyes, Zheng yuluo was not much different from Xiao Ling.
At least until now, my had never harmed Jing Zhi, but Jing Zhi had suffered many times because of Zheng yuluo.
Qing Ying was in charge of keeping an eye on Xiao Ling. However, she used abination of light and dark to keep an eye on Xiao Ling secretly. She also pretended to have met Xiao Ling by chance and became friends with her.
As for Qing Tian, she was in charge of supporting the two of them. She would help whichever side needed her help. One person would not be able to handle it, and it would be a waste for two people to keep an eye on two innocent girls, so Jing Rui sent three people.
The three of them were not serious on the surface, but they were actually highly-trained and had been working for Jing Rui in the dark. This was the first time they were out in the open for Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi knew nothing about this, but he knew that he was far too weak.
He also needed to start training his own men. He needed money! He needed a lot of money!
He finally started to sort out the projects that Jing Rui had given him and figure out how to make a profit. He would call Jing Rui whenever he had something he did not understand.
Jing Rui had no interest in women, but he taught her everything about her career.
Jing Zhi couldnt rely on him all the time, and Jing Rui was willing to teach him when he finally decided to learn.
For five days in a row, Jing Zhi was so immersed in his studies that he had even forgotten about my and Zheng yuluo.
If the three Qing Ling sisters had note back to report to him, he would probably still be immersed in it.
Any results? Did Xiao Ling notice anything?
Jing Zhi had never suspected Zheng yuluo. He felt that the only person with a problem was my.
However, Qing Ling shook her head helplessly.No, Xiao Lings side hasnt found any problems for the time being. Zheng yuluos people have been investigating the person who pushed her into theke that day, but there have been no results. If it was an ordinary person, there would definitely be some clues, but Xiao Ling and Zheng yuluo have no problems.
Jing Zhi understood what Qing Ling meant. This meant that their problem wasnt small.
Theres no need to investigate Zheng yuluo, he said lightly after some thought.Just focus on investigating Xiaoyue.
Qing Ling agreed, but when she went to track them down again, they followed the original n. They only listened to Jing Rui and ignored Jing Zhis arrangement.
They were not only investigating Zheng yuluo, but more importantly, they were protecting her.
Jing Rui knew that Zheng yuluo was very important to Jing Zhi, so he sent Qing Ling, who was the best at fighting.
The three of them gave Jing Zhi a brief exnation and then went to give Jing Rui a detailed report in the dark.
When they arrived, Shuyin happened to be there too. The three of them bowed to her in unison when they saw her. Their expressions were serious, and they didnt have the frivolity they had in front of Jing Zhi.
Shuyin saw them and smiled at the three of them.Are you looking for Jing Rui? Hes in the study upstairs, go!
The three of them responded in a low voice and went to the study room quietly.
When Shuyin saw the way the three of them walked and how light they were, she knew that they were all experts.
The three of them looked to be at most 21 or 22 years old. It was unknown how they were able to train so well at such a young age. They must have suffered a lot.
Shuyin had enough trust in Jing Rui, and she was not worried that Jing Rui would mess around with her female subordinates.
But she was still a little jealous, so Jing Rui did not have any supper tonight.
Chapter 1195
Chapter 1195: You are the only woman in the family
Trantor: 549690339
In fact, Jing Rui had never seen any female subordinates at home, except for Han Feng and Gao ya. Even male subordinates rarely reported to him at home.
He had a habit that he had inherited from his father, Jing Yichen, and that was that he didnt like outsiders entering his home.
Jing Yichen had never weed anyone to his home. Even when Jing Yiran and Zhao Anan wanted to go, he had refused them with a cold face.
In his opinion, home was private property. Other than his wife and children, he would not allow any outsiders to destroy that warm environment.
Jing Rui had been influenced by Jing Yichen since he was a child and he didnt like it when others went to his house.
The father and son were totally different from Shangguan ning in this aspect.
Shangguan ning liked to hang out with her friends at home. She liked to chat and drink tea with her friends.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning had been together for many years. Jing Yichen had followed his wifes wishes in almost everything except for inviting his friends to his house.
Therefore, for so many years, Shangguan ning had been the one topromise.
By now, Shangguan ning had already realized that it was only natural that no one else was allowed toe to the house.
It was the same for Jing Rui. He had even driven Jing Zhi out, let alone others.
Therefore, as soon as Qing Ling and the other two entered the study, Jing Rui scolded them and asked them to jump out of the window instead of going through the front door.
Qing Ling did not even have the time to exin that it was Shuyin who asked them toe up, before she was forced away by Jing Ruis murderous look.
Fortunately, the Three Sisters trained hard, so jumping from the second floor wasnt a problem. Otherwise, they would have broken their limbs.
Shuyin waited downstairs for the three girls, but they didnte down. She was very confused.
For the first time in her life, she secretly went upstairs to eavesdrop.
However, she leaned against the door and listened for a while, but there was no sound at all!
This was too strange!
The study was soundproof, but she could still hear Jing Ruis voice when he was on the phone.
Shuyin stuck herself to the door like a lizard. The door was suddenly opened, and she threw herself into the arms of the person who opened the door.
Jing Rui hugged her and smiled.Youve been lying on the door for so long just to wait for me to open the door and then throw yourself into my arms?
Shuyin couldnt keep a straight face when she was caught eavesdropping.
She buried her face in Jing Ruis arms and said,Im just here to take a look. Otherwise, no one wille to save you if youre charmed by the Three Sisters!
Perhaps even Shuyin herself didnt notice that her tone was a little sour.
Jing Rui smiled and lifted Shuyin up by her waist. He put her on his wide desk.
Since youre afraid that Ill be charmed, why did you let the three of theme up?
Shuyin was sitting on the desk, feeling ufortable in Jing Ruis arms.
This was Jing Ruis office table. How could he sit at it?
However, she didnt see the Three Sisters after looking around. She didnt care where she was sitting and asked in surprise,Where are they?
Jing Rui twirled Shu Yins hair with his fingers and said,I scolded him and he left.
Why? Shuyins eyes widened.
Because youre the only woman in the family.
His words were pleasant andforting, and Jing Rui did not seem to be joking at all. He was serious. Shuyinughed.
She put her arms around Jing Ruis neck and kissed him yfully.You said it yourself. You cant let other womene here in the future!
She smiled like a flower. The soft light shone on her fair face, making her look like a blooming Magnolia. Jing Rui wanted to tear her clothes off and show her beauty to himself.
He liked this kind of Shuyin. She was fresh and full of spirit. She had the romantic and vitality that an 18-year-old girl should have, and also the jealousy and love that a girl in love should have.
This Shuyin made him want to hold her in his hands. He obviously yearned for her body, but because he cherished it too much, he couldnt bear to touch her.
Even Jing Rui himself did not know when he had fallen in love with Shuyin, and she had slowly entered his heart without any warning.
Yinyin, I promise you that no other woman wille. In the future, this will be our home, and only we will be here.
His voice was deep and pleasant, and the words he said were the most beautiful vows in the world.
Shuyins heart was in turmoil. She could not help but hold Jing Ruis face and kiss him.
Shuyin rarely took the initiative to kiss him. Jing Rui could feel her passion and held her tightly, quickly turning the tables.
Shuyin soon noticed the change in Jing Ruis body when they were so close to each other. She stepped back shyly, but Jing Rui held her tightly, letting her feel his desire.
Jing Rui was rarely so direct. He was always afraid that Shuyin would be too shy and scare her, so he had been holding back.
Yinyin, do you know how much I want you?
Jing Ruis forehead was pressed against Shuyin s, and a part of his body was pressed against Shuyin s. Shuyins face was so red that it was burning.
But she did not push Jing Rui away, even though she was too shy to open her eyes.
I cant even work with you by my side. My mind is filled with you.
Jing Rui had said this more than once, and Shuyin knew that he was telling the truth, because every time she was with him, they would always be hugging each other for no reason.
So, she was worried about disturbing his work, so she didnt stay long each time.
Jing Rui picked Shuyin up and left the study for the bedroom.
Shuyin hadpletely forgotten about the Three Sisters from before. She also forgot to ask where they had gone and where they had left from.
It did not matter anyway. She only needed to know that Jing Rui would not look at any other woman.
Sleep here tonight. Dont go back to the hotel.
Jing Ruiid down on the bed with Shuyin in his arms and said softly,Also, after we get engaged, you must live with me.
He had given Shuyin a months worth of freedom, and that was already the limit.
Shu Yin snuggledfortably in his arms and interlocked her fingers with his. She replied with a soft mm.
She used to think that it would be better to live separately from Jing Rui, otherwise he would always get intimate with her. But now, she decided to be with Jing Rui, otherwise she would not know if there were a few beautiful girls in the house.
Although Jing Rui wanted to stay away from them, Shuyin felt that she had to be more careful too.
Qing Ling and the other two girls had no other feelings for Jing Rui, but they could not guarantee that other women did not.
As Jing Ruis fiance, she should have destroyed Jing Ruis love affairs.

Chapter 1196: If Xiao Ling is dead
Trantor: 549690339
Qing Ling and the other two were driven out of the vi after a short while, and they jumped out of the window. Han Feng and Gao ya, who were guarding outside the vi, were overjoyed!
Qing Ling flew into a rage out of humiliation. She did not act respectfully and solemnly in front of Jing Rui at all.What are youughing at? Laugh again and Ill skin you two!
Among the three of them, Qing Ling was the smartest and the strongest. Even though she was the youngest, she became the leader.
They were very familiar with Gaoya, and every time they met, they would fight to the death. Now that the Three Sisters had made a fool of themselves, Gaoya and Gaoya were naturally gloating.
Han Feng was the kind of person who didnt talk much, but was extremely ck-bellied. In Qing Lings words, he was particrly sullen.
Qing Ling, youve been given a cold shoulder. Why are you still angry at us? I was kind enough to help you, but you dont even appreciate it!
He was the one who kindly allowed the Three Sisters to enter the vi, and he was also the one who kindly suggested to Jing Rui that the three of them help Jing Zhi solve his problem.
Gao yas skin was fair, and his appearance was delicate. He looked like a shy boy-next-door, but the words he said werepletely out of line with his temperament.Qing Ling, dont call yourself an olddy anymore. Youre ruining the beauty. You wont be able to get married if you do that!
Qing Ling was so angry that her nose was crooked. She called out, and Qing Ying and Qing Tian didnt say anything and immediately pounced on Gao ya.
A gentleman uses his mouth and not his fists. Dont you have any shame?
Han Feng was afraid that his brother would suffer. Seeing that Qing Ling was about to hit him, he grabbed her and shouted.
Qing Ling punched him on the nose,Bah, whos a gentleman with you! The three of us sisters are despicable!
The Three Sisters fought against two of Han Feng s, and they quickly won. Then, they all left with their heads held high.
Han Fengy on the ground with a bloody nose and a swollen face. He said indignantly,How did these three vixens be so powerful recently? I havent fought for a month and my strength has increased. No one will want me in the future!
Gao yas situation wasnt much better than Han Feng s. His strength was on par with Han Feng s, but he usually didnt use his full strength when fighting Qing Ling and the other two, so he was beaten a little badly.
Because Qing Ling and the other two had been tricked by them, they did not hold back at all.
It was already early summer, and the weather was getting hotter. The girls who loved beauty had all changed into beautiful dresses and high-heel sandals, revealing their long legs and attracting the attention of the opposite sex.
Qing Ying was still hiding on the roof directly above Zheng yuluos room.
Dresses were inconvenient for carrying out missions, and high heels were even more beautiful and not useful. Only by wearing running shoes could one exert their fastest speed.
After she finished fighting with Han Feng and the others, she went straight to Zheng yuluos ce. Not long after she arrived, she saw that Jing Zhi had also arrived.
She rolled her eyes in the dark, thinking that Jing Zhi was asking for it.
If he didnt care about Xiao Ling at all, why did he have to go through so much trouble? he could have just strangled her to death. Would Zheng yuluo continue to misunderstand?
Qingying had a nice name and she looked pure and beautiful. In fact, she was cruel and liked to be straightforward. Her own appearance was very deceiving, so she did not feel any pity for Xiao Ling, who looked weak and pure. Maybe she was a wolf in sheeps clothing!
She did not think that Jing Rui was a bad man after being scolded by him. Instead, she thought that he was a good man.
Shuyin was magnanimous, but Jing Rui had to avoid arousing suspicion, or even a magnanimous woman would get jealous.
Jing Rui was never too close to his female subordinates. He was a good leader with strong willpower and decisiveness. That was why qingying was so loyal to him. She would be able to keep her life and her innocence safe.
Qingying had no idea that Shuyin had turned from a subordinate to Jing Ruis woman!
She trusted Jing Ruis character, so she had been working hard. Even when Jing Zhi came and drove her away, she still stayed here.
Jing Zhi stood in front of Zheng yuluos bed. He knew that Qing Ying had not left. He could notmand his brothers people at all. He felt a sense of frustration, but he also desired to be stronger and to have his own strength.
Zheng yuluo was fast asleep. There was an open box of sedative oral solution on her bed. One was missing, and she had obviously drunk it.
Jing Zhi knew that Zheng yuluo had been having a hard time sleeping. He was afraid that she would have a harder time falling asleep if she saw the sky, so he had to drink this.
However, this was different from sleeping pills. It was much less effective, so Zheng yuluo still couldnt sleep well.
Jing Zhi sat down beside her and reached out to caress her furrowed brows.
His fingers had just touched Zheng yuluos skin when a gun was pointed at his temple.
Get out! Dont touch my sister!
Zheng Yuwei lowered her voice as much as she could, her expression cold and her tone undisguised disgust.
Jing Zhi turned a deaf ear to her and didnt care that Zheng Yuwei was pointing a gun at him. He said calmly, Ill bring Zheng yuluo to my ce for a few days. You think of a way to exin to your parents.
Zheng Yuwei almost thought she had heard wrong!
How could this person be so thick-skinned!
Fortunately, she had been trained in the military school to be able to endure it. Otherwise, she would have definitely lost control and fired a shot!
If you dare to take my sister away, Ill call the police immediately! Although family Jing can do whatever you want in A city, my father is the director of the Public Security Bureau and everyone in the police station listens to him. Its hard to say who will be at a disadvantage.
Jing Zhi looked at Zheng yuluo, who was getting thinner and thinner, and said coldly,Shes getting thinner and thinner. She cant go on like this. Let her live with me and Ill exin it to her slowly. Shell only be willing to eat when the knot in her heart is unraveled!
The sleeping Zheng yuluo suddenly opened her eyes.I wont go to your house, you can go!
Jing Zhi and Zheng Yuwei were stunned at the same time. Obviously, they did not expect that they would wake Zheng yuluo up.
They had already lowered their voices to a very, very low volume.
Jing Zhi looked at Zheng yuluo quietly for a while and said,Zheng yuluo, you dont trust me that much?
He had never fallen in love with Xiao Ling. At most, he just didnt want an innocent life to disappear because of him. He was the one who dragged Xiao Ling into this. Before he had concrete evidence, he would not touch Xiao Ling.
He had already taken the initiative to lower his head countless times when it came to Zheng yuluo.
The exnation had even be pale and powerless. The trust between them was thinner than paper.
He had once seen Zheng yuluo sitting in Lou Ziyis car with a big bouquet of roses in her arms. She was talking andughing with Lou Ziyi. After his anger, didnt he still believe that Zheng yuluo and Lou Ziyi were just friends?
Zheng yuluo was his first and only woman, and Jing Zhi was not a fickle man.
He looked straight into Zheng yuluos eyes and said, word by word,If Xiao Ling is dead, will you believe that I have no feelings for her?

Zheng yuluo was slightly stunned. She had no intention of letting Xiao mo die.
She still didnt know who had pushed her into theke that night. Without evidence, she couldnt use anyone.
Besides, even if Xiao Ling wasnt here, wouldnt there be someone else?
She shook her head and said in a low voice,shes your friend. You also trust her innocence. Theres no need to say such things to provoke me. This is my house. I hope you donte here again.
If she kept seeing Jing Zhi, when would she ever forget him?
Jing Zhi was rendered speechless by Zheng yuluos words, because until now, he still did not believe that Xiao mo would have such a scheming mind, nor did he believe that Xiao mo would kill Zheng yuluo.
It was impossible for a persons disguise to be wless. Ever since he had met Xiao Ling, her actions had been almost the same.
If she really had a little bit of scheming and tricks, why would she starve herself until she was malnourished? How could he be so foolishly filial?
However, just because he believed in Xiao Lings innocence, it did not mean that he liked her.
In this world, the deepest love was not love based on trust, but love in the face of hatred.
For example, Zheng yuluo.
The hurt she had caused him was the deepest and most painful!
His childhood was ruined because of her, his life changed because of her, and his current brutal, cruel, and vicious life was all because of her!
He once swore that he would make Zheng yuluo suffer a fate worse than death. However, when he hated her, he fell in love with her unconsciously.
If Zheng yuluo really thought that only Xiao Lings death could relieve her hatred, Jing Zhi would make Xiao Ling disappear from this world!
Human lives had always been the least valuable to him.
The conversation that day had ended in failure. Jing Zhi knew that if he stayed, it would only make their rtionship worse, so he left with a cold expression.
He jumped down from the window of the vi, and after a few leaps, he climbed over the wall.
Qing Ying stood on the roof of the Zheng familys Vi and sighed as she looked at the figure in the dark.
His back was a little lonely, almost blending into the surrounding darkness, as if he had been abandoned by all light.
Qing Ying knew everything about Jing Zhi. The three of them had worked for Jing Rui in North America and had been in charge of protecting Jing Zhi for a while.
In the past, the name mo Mei resounded throughout North America. His cold and bloodthirsty nature was his most eye-catchingbel. Who knew that he would love someone so humbly one day?
If he wanted a woman, wasnt it just a matter of beckoning with his finger?
Qing Ying did not think that Zheng yuluo was that good. The three of them did not like weak girls, and they did not like crying girls who were sad about spring and autumn.
Zheng yuluos family background and appearance were much better than ordinary people. She came from a good family, was doted on by her parents, and was protected by her sister. She should be more carefree than anyone else.
Qingying didnt even know who her biological parents were since she was young. Her life as a child was dark and without light. If she wasnt strong enough to eat even garbage, she would have died long ago.
That was why she could not understand Zheng yuluos emotions.
Just as Qing Ying was sighing, Qing Lings anxious voice suddenly sounded from themunication device.Yingying,e and help!
Qing Ling would not let her leave Zheng yuluos side unless something serious had happened.
Qing Ying had been working with her for a long time and had a tacit understanding with her. She immediately replied,Received, Ill go now!
She raised her wrist and saw that the two red dots representing Qing Ling and Qing Tian were moving at high speed on the GPS. She immediately jumped out of the vi, got into the sports car that she had snatched from Jing Zhi, and left.
Jing Zhi received a message from Qing Ling at 2:10 am. Xiao Ling was dead.
Jing Zhi was extremely shocked. He had just told Xiao Ling to die, and Xiao Ling was dead?
The aura of a conspiracy grew stronger and stronger, as if there was an invisible hand behind the scenes manipting everything.
At 2:30 pm, Qing Ling and the other two arrived at Jing Zhis Vi with serious expressions.
There were at least five experts on the other side, and one of them was a top sniper. my killed him in one shot.
It had been a long time since the three of them had suffered such a terrible defeat. Not only had they all died, but their target had also died. They would not be able to exin it to Jing Rui when they returned.
Jing Rui did not raise the three of them for free.
Qing Ling was the strongest and had the least injuries, but one of her arms was already covered in blood.
However, she was not in the mood to bandage it.
She sat on the sofa dejectedly and said in a low voice,They must have been watching Xiao Ling for a long time, but they hid so well that I didnt notice anything unusual. Xiao Ling didnt have to die, but she must have found out about the other partys secret, so she was killed tonight.
Qing Tian had been with Qing Ling the whole night. She was the most seriously injured and her face was covered in blood, but she didnt even frown. She said calmly,They took Xiao Ling away right under our noses. We initially managed to get her back, but the enemy sniper fired without hesitation.
Qing Ying had arrivedte, but she was also seriously injured. Her originally smooth and delicate back was now a bloody mess, but her mental state was the best. Her face did not look grave or dejected, and she said in a rxed manner,Its fine. We killed two of them tonight! The three of us are still alive, but one of us is dead. Jing Zhi wanted to kill Xiao Ling to please his woman. Weve earned a lot!
As long as she was still alive, it was already a great fortune for her. She cherished every minute and second of her life.
Qing Ling and Qing Tian raised their heads at the same time and looked at Jing Zhi.You want to kill Xiao Ling?
I did have that idea, Jing Zhi said calmly,but what happened tonight proves that my intuition was right.
What intuition?
She didnt do those things.
Jing Zhi fell into a long silence.
Qing Ling and the other two fell silent. Although they didnt like Xiao mo, they didnt hate her either. They had met by chance and were just passersby in their lives.
However, Xiao Lings death seemed a little unjust.
The young girl in her Prime had always been suffering. Until the moment before her death, she did not even have a full meal. She was not even willing to buy a bottle of mineral water for herself to drink. Instead, she drank cold tap water.
They all thought that she was a scheming woman, but in fact, she was just a poor little girl who had been misunderstood by everyone.
Just because she had no background, no parents or brothers to protect her, she was at the mercy of others.
It was only because the few of them were used to seeing life and death that they could remain calm at this moment. Otherwise, they would have been sad.
After a long while, Jing Zhi spoke again. Youve done your best. Go to the hospital and take care of your wounds. Ill talk to my brother about this.
No, we failed the mission. We should go to the boss to receive our punishment.
The Three Sisters said as they stood up and walked out together.
When she was about to reach the door, she heard Jing Zhi say in a low voice,Thank you for protecting her at thest moment. She was killed in one shot, and she didnt feel any pain.

Chapter 1198: I did not kill him
Trantor: 549690339
Qing Ling and the other two paused and turned to look at him. They couldnt help but feel that Jing Zhi looked a little sad at the moment.
It was somewhat unbelievable for this word to appear from the mo Mei who had once dominated North America.
It was rumored that mo Mei did not have human emotions at all. The virus had transformed his body and also his personality.
However, they all knew that he was just an ordinary person. It was just that all his emotions had been deliberately suppressed by the two major organizations in the past.
After Qing Ling and the other two left, Jing Zhi was left alone in the empty vi.
Was she sad?
There seemed to be.
But it wasnt that sad.
Most of the time, when a person was alive, you wished you could kill him with your own hands. But when he really died, you would feel empty.
A delicate and timid little girl had disappeared from the world.
What was even more ridiculous was that the executioner who had made her disappear could have been Jing Zhi himself.
He had almost killed the wrong person!
Jing Zhi sat on the sofa in the living room until dawn.
The sun rose from the East. It was an early summer morning, and the light was bright and warm. It shone on Jing Zhi through the clean French windows.
Jing Zhi stood up and faced the sun. He said in a low voice,Xiao Ling, rest in peace.
He would personally take revenge for her. It had nothing to do with sex, just because he owed Xiao Ling his life.
A hand was ced on his shoulder, patting him gently as if tofort him.
Jing Zhi turned around and looked at Jing Ruis calm face. He could no longer suppress the self-me in his heart.
Brother, shes dead!
I know,
Jing Ruis expression was calm. Xiao Ling was just an insignificant stranger to him. He was just worried that Jing Zhi would be angry and worried about him, so he put everything down to see him.
However, it seemed that Jing Zhiyuan was much calmer than he had expected.
He had thought that Jing Zhi was going to take revenge on someone without a second thought like he used to.
Were still trying to find out who the enemy is, but its definitely our enemy. It has nothing to do with Xiao Ling.
my wasnt worthy of so many experts. They obviously knew about the existence of Qing Ling and the other two, so they sent five people.
If you dont want Zheng yuluo to die, dont look for her in the near future. After Xiao Lings death, Zheng yuluo is likely to be next.
Zheng yuluo had already died once, but she was lucky enough to survive. The other party would definitely attack again.
Okay, Jing Zhi nodded.
Even if he went to find Zheng yuluo, Zheng yuluo might not be willing to see him.
Contrary to Jing Zhis guess, Zheng yuluo wanted to see him very much.
Because she had already heard from Zheng Jing that Xiao Ling was dead.
Qing Ling and the other two didnt touch Xiao Mos body. After the fight, the two dead men were taken away by theirpanions, leaving Xiao mo alone at the scene.
Qing Ling called the police. They left secretly after the police arrived.
This was a criminal case, and it was the most serious shooting and murder case. If Qing Ling and the other two didnt leave, they wouldnt be able to exin it. If they took Xiao Lings body away, she wouldnt be able to exin it to her parents.
The best way was to hand it over to the police.
Zheng yuluo didnt know if Jing Zhi was the one behind Xia Lings death. She was terrified. If Jing Zhi really killed Xia Ling because of her, she didnt know what to do.
She really wanted to ask Jing Zhi if he had killed her.
After all, he had just said that he wanted to kill Xiao Lingst night.
Zheng yuluo waited for a day and a night, but Jing Zhi didnt appear.
She had thought that Jing Zhi would at leaste to tell her about Xiao Lings death. Whether or not he was the murderer, he should have taken the opportunity to clear up the misunderstanding between them.
Zheng Yuwei also knew that Xiao Ling was dead and she was a little stunned.
In her opinion, Jing Zhi was cruel and it was normal for him toy his hands on Xiao Ling. But if he did it for Zheng yuluo, didnt that mean that Zheng yuluo was the most important person in Jing Zhis heart?
She felt that no one else would do anything to Xiao Ling except for Jing Zhi.
Sister, dont wait for him. Its already past two in the morning. Its time to sleep.
Zheng Yuwei knew that her sister was waiting for Jing Zhi, so she thought that he woulde. But it was already sote and he was nowhere to be seen, so it was obvious that he wouldnte.
She wanted to tell him that Jing Zhi had just killed someone and it wasnt appropriate for him to show up at their house. If his father found out, he might be arrested.
However, she was afraid of scaring her sister, so she swallowed the rest of her words.
Zheng Jing did suspect that Jing Zhi was the murderer, because ording to the records of Jing in the past month, Jing Zhi was the only one who was close to her. He just didnt have a motive.
Jing Zhi had been sent to the police station along with Qing Ling, who had been keeping an eye on Xiao Ling.
All the surveince equipment at the crime scene had been destroyed by the sniper, so there was no live video.
Jing Zhi and Qing Ling didnt show anything strange from the beginning to the end. They only said that it had nothing to do with the whole thing.
They were not the ones who killed her. Qing Ling had even been shot in the arm to protect Xiao Ling. The tendons in her right arm were damaged and she would not be able to use a gun for a long time.
Jing Zhi was expressionless the whole time he saw Zheng Jing. It was as if he had never seen Zheng Jing before and he had no intention of seeing him as his future father-inw.
Qing Ling was surprised for a long time.
If Jing Zhi wanted to marry Zheng yuluo, he would have to go through Zheng Jing first.
If his father-inw didnt like him, how could he have a beauty?
The two of them were interrogated separately, and they didnt leave the police station until dawn.
Jing Zhi drove back to the vi with Qing Ling and saw Zheng yuluo standing outside.
Jing Zhi frowned slightly, but Qing Ling said calmly,Xiao Ling is dead, so she might think that you killed her. The misunderstanding between you and Xiao Ling should have been cleared up. Weve checked, the people who pushed her into thekest time should be the same group of people who killed Xiao Ling.
What she meant was that Xiao Ling was not the one who killed Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhi had already guessed this, but it was useless to believe that my would not kill anyone. Zheng yuluo did not believe it.
In the end, even he suspected Xiao Ling.
Boss said that you should keep your distance from Zheng yuluo now. This might be the best protection for her.
Qing Ling reminded Jing Zhi. She felt that if another woman died, Jing Zhis personality would be even colder.
Jing Zhi opened the car door and said calmly,Go down and tell Zheng yuluo about Xiao Ling. Just say that I didnt kill her.
So, she might still misunderstand your rtionship with Xiao Ling. Are you sure you want to tell her the truth? Sometimes, lying might be more suitable.
No, tell her the truth,
Chapter 1199
Chapter 1199: Falling sick
Trantor: 549690339
Alright, Qing Ling smiled.Ill listen to you. Tell me the truth.
She got out of the car and slowly walked toward Zheng yuluo.
Behind her, Jing Zhi had already driven away.
Qing Ling looked at Zheng yuluos pale face and teary eyes. She could not help but sigh in her heart and immediately stepped forward to exin.
Miss Zheng, nice to meet you. I am Jing Ruis assistant, Qing Ling. She just came out of the police station with Jing Zhi. As the people who have been in contact with Xiao Ling recently, we were summoned.
She told Zheng yuluo that she was working for Jing Rui and had nothing to do with Jing Zhi, so that Zheng yuluo would not misunderstand her.
Zheng yuluo misunderstood when she saw Qing Ling getting out of Jing Zhis car early in the morning.
She had thought that another woman had arrived after Xiao Ling had disappeared.
Hearing that Qing Ling also knew my, Zheng yuluo immediately asked,She ... How did she ...
Qing Ling knew what Zheng yuluo wanted to ask. She said seriously,Jing Zhi didnt do this. To be honest, he did want to kill Xiao Ling, but someone else did it before he could.
Theres more, Qing Ling paused and finally said,I think that the person who did this to you wasnt Xiao Ling. The person you met before was sometimes the real Xiao Ling, and sometimes the fake one. You can try to recall all the details, or you can go to the police station to see her body and verify whether its real or not.
It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck Zheng yuluos head, and her mind went nk!
A fake Xiao Ling?
How could this be possible?
So, she had beenpletely deceived? Did she misunderstand the rtionship between Jing Zhi and Xiao Ling?
Zheng yuluos mind was in a mess, and she could not think normally.
Qing Ling continued,miss Zheng, donte here to look for Jing Zhi. Youd better keep your distance from him. Otherwise, youll be in danger. I think youre still scared after being pushed into thekest time.
Zheng yuluo did not expect Qing Ling to know everything!
Thinking of how she had said that she was Jing Ruis assistant, Zheng yuluo finally guessed that Qing Ling was Jing Ruis right-hand man, and that she must be a very trusted one.
I want to talk to Jing Zhi, cant I even talk to him like this? she asked in a low voice.
Qing Ling nced at her. She had heard from Qing Ying yesterday that Zheng yuluo disliked Jing Zhi very much. The two sisters had chased Jing Zhi out together without a word of praise. Why was she sticking to Jing Zhi again today?
Qing Ling had never been in love before. She didnt care about love, especially those who were obsessed with love.
Miss Zheng, did I not make myself clear enough? she asked with a frown.
Didnt she say she would die if she got close to Jing Zhi? why did she still throw herself at him?
The IQ of a woman in love was indeed zero!
Qing Ling decided that Jing Zhi would be the one to talk to women in the future! As a woman, she would never show any mercy to another woman when she saw her sad and pitiful face.
She only wanted to hit him!
Qing Ling had known Xiao Ling for a long time, and she finally understood why Jing Zhi treated Xiao Ling so differently today.
Xiao mo did not look like Zheng yuluo, but their temperament, demeanor, and character were exactly the same!
If she had Zheng yuluos face, she would be a living replica of Zheng yuluo! The kind that could even recognize the wrong parents!
Qing Ling was d that her boss did not like this kind of pitiful girl. She preferred Shu Yins personality to be clean and simple.
She was about to leave when she saw two graceful figures walking out of the vi.
Yingying, Tiantian, Im back! What took you guys so long toe and pick me up!
Zheng yuluo followed Qing Lings gaze and saw two young and beautiful girls.
Both of them were wearing white sportswear, and their cheeks were slightly red. It seemed that they had just finished their morning exercise.
Zheng yuluo didnt expect Jing Zhi to have two women at home. Her eyes widened in surprise.
Qing Ling immediately said,miss Zheng, these are my two sisters. They work together. They are both Jing Ruis assistants. Please dont misunderstand. They came here today for Xiao Lings matter, so well leave now.
After she finished speaking, she pulled qingying and Qingtian away, not giving Zheng yuluo a chance to react at all.
Both Qing Ying and Qing Tian had protected Zheng yuluo before and knew her character. The two of them did not dare to say hello to Zheng yuluo and quickly left with Qing Ling.
Zheng yuluo knew that the three of them were afraid that she would misunderstand. Sheughed at herself and turned to leave.
She didnt have a sense of security and always felt that she was going to lose Jing Zhi, so she became suspicious at the first sign of trouble.
She used to suspect that Shuyin liked Jing Zhi, but she never thought that the person Shuyin liked was Jing Rui.
However, a sense of security didnte out of nowhere.
She needed Jing Zhi to give it to her.
If Jing Zhi was always in a rtionship with other women, how could he feel safe?
Zheng yuluo was starting to doubt herself. She didnt know what the rtionship between Jing Zhi and my was like, and she didnt know if what she had encountered was real or fake.
Would anyone be able to act as Xiao Ling so well?
Xiao Ling did not seem to have any twin sisters.
Zheng yuluo had too many doubts in her mind. She finally mustered up the courage to go to Zheng Jing and asked to see the body of my.
But Zheng Jing didnt agree.
Both Jing Zhi and Qing Lingcked a motive for killing. The one with the most motive was none other than Zheng yuluo!
Before Xiao Ling died, Zheng yuluo had alsoe into contact with her. There were also all sorts of text messages and surveince video records, so it was impossible to deny it.
But because she was his daughter, Zheng Jing had excluded her and didnt send anyone to contact her.
Wouldnt it arouse suspicion if he went to see Xiao Lings body at this time?
But Zheng Jing didnt let Zheng yuluo go to the scene, but gave her an autopsy report and a picture.
Zheng yuluo read it carefully. She didnt take anything else to heart, but the two words on the autopsy report made her feel extremely guilty.
That word was Virgin.
It was obvious that Jing Zhi had never touched her. Otherwise, Xiao Ling would not have been a Virgin, given how domineering and fierce he was.
At the thought that Xiao Ling might be innocent, Zheng yuluo did not dare to look at the photos.
She was so upset that she couldnt stop crying.
Fortunately, Jing Zhi hadnt killed her. If he had killed Xiao Ling for her, she would have regretted it for the rest of her life.
Zheng yuluo thought too much, and her body was weak to begin with, so she soon fell ill.
She had been running a high fever for several days, and she was in a trance.
Zheng Yuwei and her parents were very anxious, but even Mu Qing was helpless. He could only control the condition, but could not really make Zheng yuluo better.
Zheng Yuwei gritted her teeth and went to find Jing Zhi in the middle of the night.
Chapter 1200
Chapter 1200: Quarreling
Trantor: 549690339
When Zheng Yuwei climbed into Jing Zhis house through the window, Jing Zhi had just finished his shower. He came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.
Zheng Yuwei almost bumped into him. When she saw his firm chest with water droplets, she couldnt help but blush and stomped her feet in anger.Why arent you wearing any clothes!
Im in my own house,Jing Zhi said coldly,its none of your business whether I wear clothes or not. Who let you in? Get out!
His impression of Zheng Yuwei was really bad. Every time he went to the Zheng family, she would chase him away as soon as he met her. Now that she ran to his house without any scruples, it would be strange if he had a good attitude.
Zheng Yuwei was the kind of person who was amenable to coaxing but not coercion. The more tyrannical others were, the more tyrannical she would be. If others were good to her, she would be embarrassed to go against them.
After being yelled at by Jing Zhi, her face didnt turn red anymore. She didnt feel embarrassed at all. She snorted. Dont think that Im willing toe! If my sister wasnt sick, I wouldnt havee even if you invited me!
What does her illness have to do with me? Who told me to stay away from her? Who was the one who said that they didnt want to meet again? What, now that you think Im useful, you want to see me?
Jing Zhi brought up the past without mercy. He knew that Zheng yuluo was sick.
Shuyin went to family MUs Hospital almost every day, so she knew about Zheng yuluos hospitalization. She told Jing Zhi about it.
He even knew about Zheng yuluos condition.
Of course, he also knew that although Zheng yuluo had a high fever, she was not in danger of dying under Mu Qings treatment.
Im not a doctor. Its useless to look for me if Zheng yuluo is sick! Get out of my house, I dont want to see you!
It was not a good thing for Zheng Yuwei toe to him and interact with him so frequently.
In the eyes of others, they might think that he was very close to Zheng Yuwei.
Ever since the incident with Xiao Ling, Jing Zhi had be very careful with women. He wouldnt get close to any woman easily.
My sister likes you the most. Come with me to meet her and talk to her. Exin some things to her, or she will never recover!
Zheng Yuwei felt that Zheng yuluos condition kept on acting up because she had a knot in her heart. As long as Jing Zhi could help her sister untie the knot in her heart, she would be fine soon.
That Xiao Ling is dead, and thats why my sister is sick!
Shut up!
Shes already dead!Jing Zhi suddenly shouted, why are you still ming her for everything?! How many times have I told you that theres nothing going on between us? Do you believe me?
Even though my had been dead for a week, Jing Zhi still felt terrible.
When her parents saw her dead body, they immediately fainted. When they woke up, they hugged the body and cried. Even her younger brother and sister cried their hearts out.
No matter how bad Xiao Lings parents were, it was only natural for them to be in pain when they saw their biological daughter die.
In the past, although their family was extremely poor and noisy, they were stillplete. Now that one of them had died, and the most filial and hardworking one at that, the whole family was about to copse.
Every time Jing Zhi thought about how he had almost killed my just to make Zheng yuluo believe that he had nothing to do with her, he felt like he was an idiot and wanted to p himself.
Now, even Zheng yuluos illness was med on the already dead Xiao Ling, so who was Xiao Lings death to?
Jing Zhi suddenly lost the mood to scold Zheng Yuwei. At this moment, he seemed to have returned to his childhood.
At that time, he was isted by the Zheng sisters and the MU siblings. No one believed anything he said. Zheng yuluo was always the first to refute him, saying that he was lying and telling other children not to y with him.
No matter what happened, he would always be the one at fault.
Zheng Yuwei knew that she had said something wrong, but she didnt feel that she had wronged Xiao Ling.
Her sister did me herself for Xiao Lings death, and she fell sick because Jing Zhi refused to see her.
She was going back to the United Kingdom to continue her studies in a few days, and she had to settle the matter between her sister and Jing Zhi before she left.
Zheng Yuwei took a deep breath and said slowly,In the past, no matter what I said, it had nothing to do with my sister. I acted on my own ord and she didnt even know that I came to look for you. I ...
Jing Zhi suddenly interrupted her andughed coldly.Zheng Yuwei, are you in love with me?
What did you say?! Zheng Yuwei was stunned.
Zheng yuluo is the most suspicious person. She has zero trust in me. Whenever I get close to any woman, she will misunderstand. You came to find me in the middle of the night and refused to leave. To put it nicely, its for your sister, but to put it bluntly, youre thinking of a man!
Zheng Yuwei was so angry at Jing Zhi that she almost fell over!
Bah! Youre shameless! With which eye did you see that I like you?
Youre the shameless one. I didnt beg you toe. Do you dare to go back and tell Zheng yuluo that you came to chat with me for half an hour in the middle of the night? And it s ****!
What kind of **** was this?
She was fully dressed, and Jing Zhi was only showing his upper body.
Jing Zhi seemed to be able to read Zheng Yuweis mind. He walked over to her and pushed her against the wall. He said in a bewitching voice,Zheng Yuwei, I couldnt tell that you actually wanted to see my lower body!
As he spoke, he reached out to pull off the bath towel covering his lower body.
Zheng Yuwei couldnt take it anymore. She pushed Jing Zhi away and ran out of the vi like the wind.
After Zheng Yuwei left, Jing Zhi put away the evil look on his face. His handsome face was only left with endless indifference and coldness.
He was very tired, very exhausted, and just wanted to have a good sleep.
His brothers engagement party was in two days time. He should cheer himself up.
Zheng Yuwei ran far away from the vi before she realized that she had been tricked.
Jing Zhi had said that on purpose so that she would run away when she couldnt take it.
She had seen too many topless male students in the military school and she shouldnt have panicked at the sight of Jing Zhis body.
Zheng Yuweis heart was beating fast, but she couldnt exin why.
Fortunately, Zheng yuluos health had improved the next day. She was no longer drowsy and could get up to eat something.
Shu Yin brought the news of Zheng yuluos recovery to Jing Zhi. Jing Zhi only nodded slightly and didnt say a word.
Shuyin knew that he was in a bad mood. She sighed softly and said to Jing Rui when she saw him,Jing Zhis fate always seems to y a joke on him. Lets treat him better!
Jing Ruiughed,havent we always been nice to him? Hes just having some trouble in love, you dont have to feel bad for him, Ill find something for him to do!
Chapter 1201
Chapter 1201: The engagement
Trantor: 549690339
That afternoon! Jing Rui arranged for Jing Zhi to work as a security guard at Jingsheng enterprise, starting from the lowest level.
He was probably the most handsome and powerful security guard in the world to date!
All the other security guards had three shifts, but Jing Zhi, as the second master of family Jing, had special treatment and had to work 24 hours a day.
Of course, his sry was ten times that of an ordinary security guard. After all, he was strong and had long working hours. It was normal for him to earn tens of thousands of Yuan a month.
Jing Zhi worked for a long time before he went to find Jing Rui, almost in tears.
Brother, Im your blood brother! How can you let your own brother guard the door for you! Youre getting engaged the day after tomorrow. If everyone sees that Im your younger brother at the engagement party, youll be embarrassed!
Im not afraid of losing face. Besides, being a security guard is a legitimate job. Ill only be respected and notughed at. Youre overthinking it!
Jing Rui was sitting in his office with a calm face. He was wearing a light grey striped suit and a white shirt, with a thick pile of documents in his hand. He looked like a President.
Jing Zhi had thought that he would at least be the Vice President of Jingsheng enterprise after he was transferred to Jingsheng enterprise by his brother. He thought that he would be able to sit in an air-conditioned room and give orders like his brother.
He looked at his security uniform, which was worth at most 300 yuan, and then at his brothers white shirt, which was worth more than 30000 Yuan. He was not happy.
I want to be the Vice President!
Thats impossible. Every Vice President in the group has a heavy responsibility on their shoulders. They all have real talent. You can stop dreaming!
I also have real talent and knowledge!
You mean to kill?
Jing Zhi choked. He straightened his neck and said, Arent you the same? other than killing, you dont know anything else!
Jing Rui nodded calmly.Thats why I have been learning. I dont want to be fooled by those cunning vice presidents.
Then why can you be directly transferred to the position of President to learn, instead of starting from security?
Its because your brain is filled with water, while my brain is filled with knowledge. Im working 20 hours a day and youre always in a rtionship. Youre in a rtionship when Im in a meeting, youre in a rtionship when Im meeting clients, I ...
Alright, alright, alright! Brother, dont say anymore, Ill just listen to you! If you continue, Ill jump down from here if I have any sense of shame!
Jing Zhi was defeated. He didnt think that he was in love, but why did it seem like he was?
Wasnt Jing Rui the one who had been in love?
Jing Rui seemed to be able to read peoples minds. He said,For the past month, Ive been spending less than an hour with Shuyin every day.
Jing Rui felt sorry for Shuyin whenever he thought of this.
He was too busy. Sometimes, when he got busy, he would be immersed in work the entire day. If it wasnt for the fact that he needed to go home to rest, he probably wouldnt even have an hour to apany Shuyin.
Shuyin was the only one who understood him. He never threw a tantrum and never pestered her, saying that work was more important than her. If it was someone else, they would probably have quarreled.
In fact, in Jing Ruis heart, Shuyin was the most important person. Work could never be finished, and he was only so engrossed in it because he had just taken over the enterprise. After a while, he would be like Jing Yichen, who worked in the day and went home to spend time with his wife after work.
His father had set a good example for him. In the future, he could also manage his work and family rtionship well.
Shangguan ning had never felt that she had been ignored. She had been wondering why Jing Yichen was so free.
In the end, Jing Zhi was kicked out by Jing Rui and went back to being a security guard. His bonus was deducted by ten thousand Yuan because he had reported to the president directly.
He had been patrolling the entire building the entire day, but there was not even a cockroach in the building, let alone people making trouble. He was so bored that he wanted to bang his head against the wall.
Jing Zhi knew that this was his brothers punishment for him.
After returning from North America, he had nothing to do. Everything he did had a strong start but a weak finish. He had been entangled with Zheng yuluo. His life could be said to be a failure.
But the problem was, he already knew his mistake and was trying to correct it. Why was he suddenly forced to be a security guard?
Jing Zhi couldnt figure it out, but he didnt know that he became a security guard because of Shuyins casual remark.
Jing Rui and Shuyins engagement party would be held in two days.
Family Jing had only invited their close friends and family, not their business partners. ording to family Jings tradition, Jing Rui and his fiance would be under the best protection before his wedding, and Shuyin would not even be exposed. Everyone would know that the heir of family Jing was engaged, but everything about Shuyin would be blocked.
If she married Jing Rui, she would be able to enjoy the most luxurious life in the world, but at the same time, she would be in great danger, so she would be under the highest protection.
On the other hand, Shuyin herself liked this kind of protection. Her identity was already problematic, and if others found out that she was from the fearsome Virus Research Institute, she would probably be attacked by many people.
She was engaged to Jing Rui, and she did not like to make friends as long as she was happy with him.
She was very simr to Jing Rui in this regard.
The engagement party was set at noon and was held in the private vi of family Jing. There were not many people, but almost everyones eyes were on Shuyin.
Shuyin was wearing a white, custom-made dress today. The long skirt dragged on the ground and was adorned with dazzling pearls and diamonds. It was extremely gorgeous.
She felt a little ufortable with so many people staring at her. She maintained a decent smile on her face, but her hands were clenched tightly.
Jing Rui suddenly took her hand and whispered in her ear,Dont be nervous. Just look at me. You dont have to care about the others. Were getting engaged. Theyre just here to make up the numbers. Otherwise, itll be too cold.
He said that his parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents were just there to make up the numbers, and Shuyin couldnt help butugh.
However, afterughing, she was still a little worried.You have too many rtives. I cant even recognize all of them.
Almost all the rtives and friends of family Jing were over 100 years old, and there were many of them. Shuyin had always had a headache about the hierarchy of generations. She grew up in North America and had no idea what the hierarchy was.
Jing Rui said in a low voice,its okay. I cant recognize them. You dont have to say anything. Just give me a smile.
Jing Rui had taught Shuyin this, and he had done the same. He didnt even smile at her.
He felt that the engagement ceremony was too cumbersome and cumbersome. He wanted to end it quickly and take Shuyin home to enjoy their time together!

Chapter 1202: Wearing shoes

As a matter of fact, Jing Rui had already simplified the procedure as much as possible because he had nned the engagement party himself.
Shuyin didnt have any rtives on her side. All the people who attended were from family Jing, and almost everyone was curious about Shuyins identity.
Today was her engagement, so Shuyin had specially hired a makeup artist to put on light makeup for her. This was the first time in her life that Shuyin had put on makeup.
After the makeup artist finished putting on her makeup, she was stunned beyond belief.
At this moment, everyone was looking at Shuyin. They didnt understand why they had never heard of such a beautiful girl.
Mu Wensheng, who had seen Shuyin before, beat his chest and stomped his feet. He grabbed mu Sens ears and said in exasperation,Look, look! I told you to go after Shuyin, but you didnt listen. Now, such a beautiful girl has been taken advantage of by family Jing! She had heard that she was very smart and that family Jing had taken advantage of her. Wouldnt it be great if you married her back to our Mu family? the child would be beautiful and smart, and the MU family would have an heir!
Jing Tianyuan was sitting quite far away from mu Wensheng, so he didnt hear what mu Wensheng said. Otherwise, the two old men would have a long argument.
Jing Rui held Shuyins hand as they walked on the red carpet. Shuyin almost fell down when she heard mu Wenshengs words.
Jing Rui gave mu Sen a sharp look, which frightened him so much that he shook his head immediately, indicating that he had no ill intentions towards Shuyin.
Shuyin was wearing high heels today and she wasnt used to it. She shivered just now and kicked off one of her shoes when she lifted her foot!
Shuyin didnt know what to do after dropping her shoe in front of so many family and friends.
But Jing Rui did not show any panic on his face. He looked calm and even had a faint smile on his face.
He walked over and picked up the high heels that Shuyin had kicked away. Then, he squatted down and held her Jade-like foot with one hand and the high heels with the other. He put them on for her gently.
Shu Yin looked at him in a daze. He helped her wear her shoes in front of all her family and friends?
Was he not afraid of losing face?
He was the heir of family Jing! He was the most powerful leader of Jingsheng enterprise!
She was still in a daze when Jing Rui put her shoes on and stood up.
Youre not used to high heels? Does your foot hurt? I wont wear it in the future. Ill only wearfortable ones.
He was the only one who knew how tender her feet were.
She used to stay in the Research Institute, and at most, she would walk around the dormitory andboratory. She always wore the standard t white shoes issued by the Research Institute, and her feet were perfectly protected.
Jing Rui saw that Shuyins toes and heels were red from the high heels she was wearing.
Jing Rui had picked out this pair of shoes for Shuyin. The heels were not high and were made of soft sheepskin, but she did not expect that they would still rub against her feet.
Shuyins foot did hurt, but seeing Jing Ruis care, her heart was filled with sweetness. How could she feel any pain?
She was not used to wearing high heels, but she liked the pair of shoes that Jing Rui had picked for her. She was wearing a dress today, so of course she should wear high heels.
Girls basically had no resistance to high heels, and Shu Yin was no different. She thought that these shoes were very beautiful and even wanted to collect them.
Shu Yin smiled brightly and said a little coquettishly,No, I think theyre pretty. I want to wear the shoes you picked!
Jing Rui did not care about the gazes of the people around him. Hearing Shuyins affirmation, he could not help but lower his head and kiss her.
Shuyin was not as thick-skinned as he was. She pushed Jing Rui away with a blushing face after only one kiss.
Her slightly powdered face was blushing and her pink lips had an alluring luster. Jing Rui suddenly felt that the people around him were an eyesore.
He brought Shuyin to meet the elders in the family and let everyone know of Shuyins identity. Then, he brought Shuyin home.
When Shuyin returned home, she was still in disbelief.I didnt know an engagement Party in China was so simple.
I was afraid that you would be too tired, Jing Rui said calmly.So I simplified them.
He wasnt the kind of person who cared about formalities, and neither was Shu Yin. The realplicated, cumbersome, and luxurious style would be their wedding.
The engagement party was just a way for him to keep Shuyin by his side. After all, they werent old enough to get a marriage certificate.
If he could, he wanted to tell the world that Shuyin was his woman!
Im not tired! Weve just left, but the others haven t, right?
Shuyin preferred simplicity. She didnt know much about the cumbersome etiquette in China and was afraid that she would make mistakes and make a fool of herself. The more concise it was, the less likely she would make mistakes.
However, she felt that she and Jing Rui were not doing their job well as the main characters of the day.
Jing Rui smiled nonchntly.If they like to sit there, then let them. I am free today, so I will stay with you for the whole day. Those people can just ignore me.
He held Shuyins hand and led her into the vi slowly.
The vi was decorated in a festive manner today. Bright red roses were everywhere, and all the steps were even covered with a red carpet.
Jing Rui was in a ck suit and Shuyin was in a white dress. The two of them walked in hand in hand. It was more romantic than when they were with so many people.
As soon as they entered the living room, Jing Rui held Shuyin in his arms and pressed her down on the sofa for a kiss.
Shuyin actually knew what was going to happen today. Jing Rui had already hinted at it countless times.
She was a little shy, a little flustered, and also a little expectant.
But ...
Rui, dont do it here.
This was the first time Shuyin had called him by one word. Jing Ruis heart skipped a beat, but he smiled gently.Silly girl, how could I be here? I just couldnt help but want to kiss you.
He caressed Shuyins soft long hair, looked at her exquisite and beautiful face, felt her rapid heartbeat, and felt that everything about her was so beautiful.
Could he really have her?
It was a little unreal!
Lets go, Yinyin. Lets go upstairs and be a real couple! In the future, youre mine, and Im Yours!
Jing Rui picked up Shuyin and strode upstairs.
Shuyin was so nervous that her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She buried her face in Jing Ruis arms shyly.
Jing Rui had picked out her gown for her. The hem was long and slightly exposed, but the chest was designed conservatively, showing nothing that should not be exposed.
Jing Rui put her on the bright red bed and wanted to see her but he could not.
He reached out to take off his suit jacket, but he didnt take off his shirt and trousers. He carried Shuyin and started to take off her clothes. Ill take off yours, and you take off mine. This is fair!
Shuyin had never undressed Jing Rui before, and she felt embarrassed just thinking about it.
Chapter 1203
Chapter 1203: In the clouds
Trantor: 549690339
At this point, her heart was beating like a drum, and her palms were sweating nervously.
Jing Rui had spent a lot of effort to take off her dress. He did not sweat, but Shuyins forehead was full of sweat.
Before this, Jing Rui had done a lot of research on the matters between men and women. He knew that girls would not feel toofortable during their first time. Compared to men, their pain was far greater than the pleasure.
He hadnt even done anything. He had only taken off Shuyins dress and she was already so nervous. How could he do this?
Although he wanted her badly, his love and care for Shuyin prevailed, and Jing Rui did not take the next step.
He wrapped Shuyin, who was only wearing her underwear, with a thin nket and hugged her gently. He said in a low and gentle voice,Yinyin, dont be afraid. Rx. Youll be in pain if youre so nervous.
Shuyin was really nervous. She couldnt do anything about it. Just taking off her clothes was enough to make her go crazy. Her heart was beating so fast that it didnt feel like it belonged to her anymore!
She grabbed Jing Ruis arm nervously and said,Im thirsty. I want to drink water.
The excessive tension made her throat dry and there was a slight pain.
Jing Rui kissed her on the cheek and got up to pour her a ss of warm water.
Shuyin stood up and wanted to take it for herself, but Jing Rui said in a low voice, Ill feed you.
He brought the crystal ss to Shuyins lips and fed her water like he was taking care of a child. When she finished drinking, he asked softly,Do you still want more?
I dont want to. Shuyin shook her head.
Jing Rui put the cup aside and took Shuyin by the waist into his arms. He could feel the softness and beauty of Shuyins body even through the thin nket.
His hand caressed her back gently and indulgently, making Shuyin feel like she was being protected by him.
Ever since Shuyin was eight years old, she had never been treated like a child and doted on.
She had never treated herself as a child, never acted coquettishly to others, and never allowed herself to be delicate and weak.
But in Jing Ruis arms, she seemed to be able to let go of all her strength and be a spoiled and willful woman.
Shuyin felt very happy. Her fear of unfamiliar things gradually subsided. She felt that today was especially like the wedding night in a historical drama. It was romantic and warm, nervous and excited.
She just wanted to lie in Jing Ruis arms like this for the rest of her life, and follow him until the end of time.
Jing Rui heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Shuyin had rxed.
If Shuyin wasnt willing, he wouldnt force her. This kind of thing needed both of them to like it. If he was the only one enjoying it and Shuyin didnt like it, then he would be a failure.
He smiled and pinched the tip of Shuyins nose.Silly girl, what are youughing at? Are you happy to be engaged to me?
Shuyin didnt even know that she was smiling. In any case, she just felt happy and beautiful, and the corners of her lips curled up unconsciously.
She snuggled in Jing Ruis arms and wrapped her arms around his waist. Her voice was full of joy.Yes, Im very happy! Ive always been envious of you when you took care of Jing Zhi so much. Ive always hoped that someone would protect me like that. Now, youre mine!
As Shuyin spoke, she remembered Jing Zhis resentful eyes and her smile widened.Haha, Jing Zhi was jealousst time!
Jing Rui was trying to distract Shuyin and make her rx. Heughed when he heard her childish words.He didnt bully you again, right? If there is, tell me and Ill beat him up for you!
Of course, a younger brother was different from a woman. Shuyin needed to be pampered, but Jing Zhi needed to be trained.
Even if Jing Zhi was beaten up, he was still full of energy the next day and didnt have any enmity with him at all.
As for Shuyin, Jing Rui couldnt bear to touch a single strand of her hair. If he really did, Shuyin would probably ignore him for the rest of her life.
Jing Zhis temper was difficult to get along with. He was impulsive, fierce, and a little childish. Jing Rui was relieved that Shuyin could get along well with Jing Zhi.
Jing Rui chatted with Shuyin and kissed her from time to time. Shuyin would kiss him back and even bite his chest in the end.
The two of them were entangled with each other. Jing Rui had already taken off his shirt and trousers and was curled up in the nket with Shuyin.
The two young bodies were pressed together, and Shu Yin felt extremely hot. From head to toe, from inside to outside, she was boiling hot!
But she was already in love and did not want to let go of Jing Rui. She kissed Jing Ruis face and moaned from time to time. Jing Rui almost lost control of himself.
They had never hugged each other so sincerely before. Jing Ruis breathing became heavier and his eyes became darker and darker. He could no longer hide the lust in his eyes.
His hand went all the way down from Shuyins bountiful body and explored her tender and sensitive area.
Shuyin fell into Jing Ruis arms with a soft moan.
She had never experienced such an intense and dizzying feeling before!
Yinyin, youre too sensitive. I only touched you a little. Later ... Dont you beg for mercy.
Jing Ruis voice was slightly hoarse and mesmerizing. Shuyin could not help but kiss his chest.
Jing Rui did not expect Shuyin to take the initiative. He snorted and hugged her tightly.
After that, he quickly turned the tables and pressed Shu Yin under him, starting to attack!
His kisses were like a storm, and his hands were like electricity. Wherever he touched, it would cause a numbing current!
Shuyin was defeated very quickly. She hugged Jing Ruis neck and shouted,no!
Dont want it?
He hadnt even started yet, so how could he not want it?
Fortunately, she was already very wet, so the pain would be much less.
However, Jing Rui had underestimated his own magnificence and Shuyins tenderness.
The moment he entered, Shuyin screamed in pain, followed by a bright red color.
Jing Rui hugged Shuyin and called her name affectionately as he kissed her.
Shuyins love for Jing Rui was no less than Jing Ruis love for her. Although she had never put it into practice, she had theoretical experience. She was not a lost little white flower.
Jing Rui kissed her, and she kissed him back. From now on, he was her man. Despite the pain, she was still happy, and it gave her enough courage to let Jing Rui continue.
The couple who had their first taste of sex slowly became familiar and intimate from their initial ignorance and strangeness.
Jing Rui was patient and meticulous. He managed to reduce the pain to a minimum after the first time.
Shuyin fell from the clouds to the ground, and then rose from the ground to the clouds. This repeated until she begged for mercy. Jing Rui finally let her go.

Chapter 1204: 24-hour security
Trantor: 549690339
The most beautiful thing in love was perhaps the harmony between the soul and the body.
Shuyin was like azy kitten, sleeping in Jing Ruis arms. Jing Rui took special care of the bruises on her fair skin.
Even when Shuyin was asleep, Jing Rui still held her in his arms and kissed her affectionately.
The night was hazy, and the lights in the bedroom that was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere werent turned on. He and Shuyin had been messing around for the entire afternoon, and she was probably exhausted.
Jing Ruis heart ached for her, and he felt guilty.
He had never thought that he would be so crazy about this kind of thing!
He wanted to stop, but for the first time, his body went against his brains orders. He wanted more when he saw Shuyins body.
Shuyin didnt know how long she had slept before she woke up groggily. The moment she moved, she immediately let out a gasp.
Her body was in so much pain that she almost didnt belong to her anymore!
A low voice came from above her head,Youre awake? Do you want to eat something?
Shuyin looked up and met Jing Ruis loving eyes.
Im not hungry. I just want to sleep,she toot.
This man simply had no restraint. It was only her first time and he was already so violent!
Fortunately, her body had also been modified by the virus, so her physical strength was still okay. Otherwise, she would have fainted long ago!
Shuyin pulled the nket and wrapped it around herself, as if she was afraid that Jing Rui would do something bad again.
After that, she quickly realized that her entire body was clean. She had sweated so much yesterday that she fell asleep without taking a shower. How could she feel so refreshed now?
You gave me a bath?
No, I didn t,
Just as Shuyin was about to heave a sigh of relief, Jing Rui said,But Ive wiped your whole body with a towel.
Shu Yins face instantly turned red!
She was shy and did not want Jing Rui to bathe her or wipe her body for her, even though they were already so intimate.
Shuyin wrapped herself tightly and mumbled,youre not a good person. Then she turned around and ignored Jing Rui.
Jing Rui smiled and hugged her from behind, holding her in his arms.Ive never been a good person. This isnt the first time youve found out. Its toote to regret now!
Shuyin wanted to say that she didnt regret it, but she was still frightened by Jing Ruis ferocity in the afternoon. She didnt dare to provoke him now, as she couldnt bear to do it again.
Jing Rui knew that he must have scared Shuyin today. He kissed Shuyins long hair and said in a low voice,Yinyin, I couldnt hold it in today. I wont do it again. Ill listen to you from now on. If you say no, then I won t, okay?
Shuyins spirit jolted. She turned her head, her eyes sparkling.Really?
Jing Ruiughed in his heart and thought that she was so easy to fool. But he said seriously,Its true!
Shu Yin believed him and said with satisfaction,This is not bad!
However, the next night, she was stripped naked and thrown on the bed by Jing Rui. Her protest was in vain. She finally realized what was going on after she was thrown up into the clouds by Jing Rui for the second time.
She bit him on Jing Ruis chest. We agreedst night that if I say I want it, then I dont want it!
Jing Rui chuckled as he held her in his arms and said,Little fool, you can do whatever you want, but you have to listen to me on this matter. If I promise you that I wont touch you again, dont believe me!
There was actually someone who could lie so righteously!
Shuyin felt that she had really learned something new!
She punched Jing Ruis chest in anger, but he did not move and let her hit him. She did not have much strength anyway, and hitting him was no different from scratching an itch.
As long as Shuyin was happy, Jing Rui was willing to be bitten or beaten by her.
Shuyin hit him for a while, but found that Jing Rui didnt respond. Instead, her hand hurt.
She gave up on hitting him with her hands and decided to use her teeth instead.
She left rows of teeth marks on Jing Ruis chest, which made herugh.
Does it hurt?
Shuyin touched the teeth marks with her fingers and suddenly worried that she had bitten too hard.
Jing Rui immediately eximed exaggeratedly,It hurts! You just got engaged yesterday and youre trying to kill your husband today. Youre so cruel!
It obviously didnt hurt!
Shuyin went up and took another bite!
Jing Rui was in a good mood, and his handsome face was full of smiles. As long as Shuyin didnt bite his skin, he could do whatever she wanted. It was fun to y with her.
He didnt go to work the entire day and stayed at home with Shuyin as Siamese twins. He went wherever Shuyin went and hugged her the entire time, not wanting to be separated from her for even a moment.
He finally understood why there were fatuous rulers who were obsessed with beauty in ancient times!
He had abandoned such arge corporation and only stayed at home with Shuyin. It was really a bit of a fatuous ruler.
After Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning attended his engagement party, they went on a vacation abroad and left Jing Xi in Jing Ruis care.
But Jing Rui threw Jing Xi back to Jing Zhi without thinking.
He didnt want Jing Xi to stand by and watch him being intimate with Shuyin!
The little girl had too many ideas, and he would fall into her hands if he was not careful!
It waste at night, and Jing Zhi was eating and drinking with Jing Xi in Jing Ruis office. Jing Zhi felt a little sad that he was all alone and his brother was engaged to Shuyin.
Jing Xi did not feel sad at all. She was so happy that she felt that she could fly to the sky with a pair of wings!
Her parents were overseas, her brother was engaged and had a sister-inw. No one cared about her anymore. She was finally free!
She wanted to set off firecrackers to celebrate!
It was a pity that firecrackers were not allowed in the building of Jingsheng enterprise, otherwise the rm would go off in the whole building.
Jing Xi carefully put the string of firecrackers that she had made into her backpack, thinking that she would set them off after they left the building.
Second brother, when are you getting engaged?
The little devil had touched a sore spot!
Im going to be a monk,Jing Zhi said grumpily, why are you getting engaged?
So you dont want to be a 24-hour security guard anymore?
Was this even her biological sister? why did she have to say such things?
Jing Zhi was sitting on the leather chair that Jing Rui usually used for his office. He put his feet on his luxurious desk and said while picking his teeth,Im going down to the bottom level to gain experience! Im definitely going to be the Vice President in the future!
Then Vice President second brother, take me out to y, its not fun here! I cant even set off firecrackers if I want to. I should celebrate you bing the Vice President!
Jing Zhi suddenly had a bad feeling.Where did you get the firecrackers?
I made it myself!
Jing Xi took out her chillies and threw them on Jing Zhis desk.This is it!
Before she could finish her sentence, a loud boom was heard. Little chili pepper had exploded!
The rm on the 77th floor of Jingsheng enterprise sounded in the middle of the night.
The iconic building of A city was on fire!
Chapter 1205
Chapter 1205: Youre only allowed to y with dolls in the future
Trantor: 549690339
The building of Jingsheng enterprise was too tall and the fire trucks were running out. It took six helicopters to put out the fire.
Jing Rui looked at the smoking building of Jingsheng enterprise and then at Jing Zhi and Jing Xi, who were covered in dirt. His face was so dark that it could not be described with words.
The two of them together could even blow up his own familys group building. They were going to the heavens!
Luckily, Jingsheng enterprise didnt skimp on the construction and only blew up the top twoyers. The bottomyer was still intact. Otherwise, all the employees of the enterprise would have to go on a holiday tomorrow.
Do I have to build a pure gold bomb shelter for you two to y with? Or do you want me to send you two to Mars?
Jing Xi and Jing Zhi stood obediently in front of their brother and got scolded. They had really caused a lot of trouble this time. The key was that their own building was destroyed. They felt so sorry for him.
Jing Xis face and body were covered in dust. Jing Zhi was in a worse state than her. Not only was his hair on fire, but his back was also injured by firecrackers because he had tried so hard to protect Jing Xi.
He was worried that Jing Xi would be infected if his blood touched her, so he threw Jing Xi far away as soon as he was safe, causing Jing Xis face and body to be bruised.
However, neither of them was the kind of person who liked to act coquettishly. They were not afraid of pain, so they were standing in front of Jing Rui and repenting.
Big brother, I invented the little chili to blow up our building. I just wanted to ... Celebrate your engagement! You and sister-inw didnt even talk much at the engagement party and left so quickly. I didnt have the chance to set off firecrackers to celebrate!
Jing Rui almost fainted.
She even wanted to set off her self-made firecrackers at the engagement party?
Was he nning to blow up all the rtives and friends of family Jing?
Jing Zhi was the only one who had the ability to save someone from a violent explosion. Who else could have reacted so quickly and escaped so quickly? But he could only save Jing Xi at most. He couldnt care about the others!
If this girl was not properly disciplined, she would definitely poke a hole in the sky when she grew up! At the age of eight, she had almost turned the entire city A upside down. When she turned eighteen, even the earth could no longer amodate her!
Shut up! Youre not allowed to study those messy things in the future. Youre not allowed to touch anything thats dangerous! Youre not allowed to y with guns and ammunition, and youre only allowed to y with dolls in the future!
Jing Rui used to have the same opinion as Jing Yichen. He didnt think that Jing Xi should be restrained and not taught dangerous things just because she was a girl.
Born in family Jing, even a girl could be an outstanding one in the future. She could also be a weaponsmith and a Weapon Master.
Except for Shangguan ning, who thought that their daughter should y with dolls, Jing Rui and Jing Yichen didnt think that it was a good idea.
But now, Jing Rui had lost to his sister. He did not dare to let his sister continue. It was okay to lose money, but what if she killed herself with explosives one day?
He had never seen such a bold girl!
Jing Xi toot and agreed, feeling aggrieved.
Her brothers anger was still very scary. She couldnt get herself into trouble at this time. Anyway, she could secretly study it in the future!
However, this little chili was clearly made ording to the firecracker production process on the inte, so why did the power increase so much? The people online are all liars, Hmph!
Shuyin squatted down beside her and wiped her face with a towel.
Jing Rui scolded Jing Xi, but she did not plead for Jing Xi. It was too scary. She and Jing Rui were both shocked when they heard the news from Han Feng.
If something really happened to Jing Xi, how were they going to live?
Shuyin hoped that Jing Xi would remember this. If she really couldnt do it in the future, shed better study gics and Virology with her. At least the destructive power wouldnt be so terrible, and ordinary viruses wouldnt kill people.
Jing Rui turned to Jing Zhi and scolded him,Youre eight too when Jing Xi is eight? Where is your brain? I pay a high price to hire you as a security guard every month, and this is how you protect me? How dare you bring her to my office for a drink? do you want to rece me as the president?
No, no, no, I wouldnt dare to!
Jing Zhis back was burning with pain, but he couldnt care less. He was afraid that Jing Rui would send him back to North America after what he had done.
This was aplete ident! Its not like you dont know how smart our sister is. My IQ is a serious injury, and I cant do anything to her! She took out a stick of chili and threw it to me. How would I know that it was a bomb?
Jing Zhi was on the verge of tears. He really didnt know. Could it be that he was willing to blow himself up into a cripple?
If his sister wanted to go to heaven, how could his brother stop her?
Your office is big and pretty, so I wanted to show you around!
When Jing Yichen was the president, Jing Xi had sneaked into the office many times. Jing Zhi felt guilty for saying that, let alone Jing Rui.
Jing Rui wanted to give Jing Zhi a good scolding, but he still felt sorry for his injury. He asked him to go to Peter to get his wound bandaged.
Brother, take Xixi for a checkup first. Im afraid shell be infected.
Jing Zhi was really afraid of this kind of thing. He was afraid that Jing Xi would die because of his blood.
The group took a helicopter from Jingsheng enterprise to family MUs Hospital. Jing Zhis wound was treated by Peter, while Shuyin took Jing Xis blood for a test.
Soon, the test results came out. Jing Xi was not infected.
Jing Zhi heaved a sigh of relief. His blood had already stained Jing Xis skin. He had been very scared, but it seemed that he was fine.
Usually, a little blood stain was not a big deal. As long as it did not drip into the eyes or mix into the wound, it would not get infected.
Shuyin was holding Jing Xi in her arms. Seeing Jing Rui and Jing Zhi both relieved, she couldnt help but whisper,If Im not wrong, even if Xixi has been infected with the virus, she should be fine. Shes rted to you by blood, and her DNA is very simr to yours. Shes very tolerant of the virus.
Jing Zhi was overjoyed,really? Thats great!
He didnt care if his blood caused the death of others, but he loved Jing Xi the most, and he couldnt let anything happen to her.
Now that she was able to fuse with his virus, it was really something to be happy about!
I havent studied Xixis genes or anti-virus abilities. Im going to draw her blood for a test tomorrow, and well know the results then.
Shuyin felt that this research was very necessary. It was rted to Jing Xis life, and it needed to be confirmed as soon as possible.
Jing Rui also agreed that Shuyin should help Jing Xi. He had just said okay when Jing Xi shouted excitedly,Can I be as strong as my second brother? Can I be Spiderman too?
Chapter 1206
Chapter 1206: Dont be afraid, dont be afraid
Trantor: 549690339
That night, Jing Xi witnessed Jing Zhis extreme speed for the first time!
It was also the first time she saw his inhuman ability. He was able to jump down from a 77-story building while carrying a person!
Although he had borrowed strength in the middle, in Jing Xis opinion, he wasparable to Superman in the movie!
When she jumped down from the top floor, Jing Xi screamed in fear, thinking that she was going to fall to her death. However, second brother protected her tightly and only let go of her when theynded.
If he wasnt afraid that she would be infected with the virus, he wouldnt have let go.
Jing Xi felt that Jing Zhi was a great man, like a guardian angel.
She wanted to be like him, to be able to protect her family in the future. At least, she wouldnt be a burden the next time they were in danger.
However, Jing Rui burst Jing Xis dream bubble without hesitation.This is just in case its just research, not for you to experiment! Stop dreaming, I wont let you have the chance to get infected!
Why? You and second brother both have it, but I don t. This is not fair! Both of you can run so fast and have the strength to hit people. I want that kind of virus too!
With two of our world ss fighters, we can beat up whoever you want. You dont need to use your own strength! Go home and y with your dolls. Youre not allowed to use force in the future!
Dad said that girls should be diversified! Its a must to learn some secret methods to protect yourself!
The Tiger isnt at home. Now that your brother is the king, you have to listen even if you dont want to!
Eh, if daddy is a Tiger, is mommy a tigress? Then I want to be a Tiger in the future!
Jing Rui was speechless.
Sister, can you not jump so fast? Can you get to the main point?
In the future, if anyone marries you, Ill definitely give them more money! What a loss it was to marry this wife!
Fortunately, she had good genes and a pretty little face. As long as she didnt cause trouble, she looked like a cute and innocent little loli when she smiled and talked.
Its fine, its fine if I can cheat you into a marriage! As long as she could get married, she could not stay at home and continue to harm family Jing.
The explosion of the building of Jingsheng enterprise made the headlines of city A the next day. The stock price of the enterprise even fluctuated violently because many people were worried that the explosion would cause losses to the business.
There were losses, but Jing Rui did not care.
After he took over Jingsheng enterprise, although he felt that he had a lot of responsibilities, he didnt feel too much pressure. Jing Yichen had always been calm andposed. He encouraged his son most of the time and never hurt his confidence.
But the explosion was too big a deal and Shangguan ning still found out about it.
She was worried that something would happen to Jing Xi, so she had to video chat with her every day.
On the other hand, Jing Xi did not miss her mother at all. She had been fighting with the virus recently and had fun ying with it every day.
She was too mischievous and did not have time to rest. Jing Rui did not dare to lock her up at home even if he wanted to, in case she set the house on fire.
After thinking about it, he still felt that Jing Xi was the most obedient and well-behaved when she was with mu Sen. He gritted his teeth and sent Jing Xi to mu Sen.
Although mu Sen did not understand why Jing Xi wanted to stay at his ce for a few days, he was willing to take care of her since she was very likable.
Mu Sen knew that Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning had gone on a vacation. He felt that Jing Xi was a little pitiful that no one was taking care of her. So he asked her,Xixi, is your brother very busy?
Jing Xi hung around his neck and said happily,Yeah, one is busy being a President, and the other is busy being a security guard. Didnt I blow up two floors of our building two days ago? Big brother is working hard to earn money to build a new building!
You were the one who blew up the Jingsheng enterprise building? mu Sen was startled.
Didnt the news say that it was a malicious attack by apetitor?
Jing Xi pouted and nodded.Look! This is the bomb. Its cute, right?
As she spoke, she took out a string of red chili and hung it around mu Sens neck.
Mu Sen was so shocked that he could not even speak!
He felt a chill on his neck, and he was terrified that his head would be removed from his body the next moment!
Jing Xi immediately patted his face with her little hand.Brother mu, dont be afraid, dont be afraid. This is an improved version of mine. It wont be that powerful, and it wont explode at will. At most, itll be like being bitten by a mosquito. Itll be fine ...
Before she could finish her sentence, little chili pepper exploded with a loud pa!
What did it feel like to have a string of firecrackers around your neck?
Was he bitten by a mosquito?
What kind of mosquito would have such a bloody mouth!
Was this a mosquito or a Lion?!
Mu Sen felt like his head was about to explode. Smoke wasing out of his mouth. It was broad daylight, but his eyes were pitch ck and stars were constantly rising! His nose and mouth were bleeding, and his face was charred ck!
He now believed that Jing Xi was the one who had blown up the Jingsheng enterprise building.
Jing Xi and mu Sen were leaning against each other. She was not in a good state. Her fair little face was also ck, and her mouth and nose were bleeding.
But she was already used to it. When she was studying the small firecrackers, they had already exploded many times!
She quickly patted mu Sens face.Brother mu, dont be afraid. You see, its not that powerful. Next time, Ill give you a more stable one. I promise it wont explode. You can give it to your girlfriend to y with! This is something all girls like!
This string was originally prepared for mu Sen to give to his girlfriend, but it had identally exploded. This was not good! I cant take revenge!
Mu Sen took a while to see again. The feeling of seeing light again almost made him cry!
Xixi, dont give me any gifts in the future, he said as he hugged Jing Xi.Other people have to give me gifts in return, but youre killing me by giving me gifts!
Jing Xi nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.Yes, yes, yes, I won t!
Mu Sen carried her to the bathroom to wash her face. When he saw the dark faces of the adult and the child in the mirror, only their eyes could be seen. He couldnt help but find it funny.We look like we just came back from Africa!
Jing Xi was relieved to see that he was not angry. She giggled.Brother mu, why dont I research a virus that can turn people ck? If you be ck, no one will fight with me for you!
Mu Sen didnt think Jing Xi had the ability to develop a virus, so he didnt take it seriously. He helped Jing Xi wash her face and said with a smile,I didnt have anyone to fight with, so Ive always loved you the most!
The next morning, mu Sen got up and went to the bathroom. He subconsciously looked at himself in the mirror to see if his neck, which had been injured yesterday, had recovered.
In the end ...
What did he just see?
Who was the African in the mirror?

Mu Sen, who had always been calm and collected, could no longer remain calm! Ah! He screamed and rushed out of the bathroom. He ran into the bedroom to find Jing Xi, wanting to ask if she had done it.
However, the moment he entered the room, he saw little charcoal lying on his white bed sheet!
Looking at her face carefully, it was none other than Jing Xi!
She was still sleeping soundly when mu Sen immediately woke her up,Xixi, whats going on?
Jing Xi was woken up by the shaking. She was still a little dazed when she opened her eyes, but when she saw mu Sens dark face, sheughed wildly.
Hahaha, brother mu, youre so evil! Its so ugly!
If you say Im ugly, youre not any better!
Mu Sen was angry and helpless. In the end, he was still reluctant to scold Jing Xi. He just knocked her forehead with his finger and said,Whats with this nonsense? how can we face others when were so dark? What kind of virus did you use? How can he be so powerful? weve both turned into Africans in one night!
Hearing this, Jing Xiughed and rolled around on the bed. Wherever she went, she left a ck mark on the white bed sheet.
Brother mu, theres no such virus! Im just saying. Dont you have a few bottles of ck ink at home? I used that to apply it!
Jing Xiughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes. But when the tears fell from her face, they turned into two drops of ck ink!
Mu Sen looked at the little girl speechlessly. Why didnt she like to cause trouble in the past? now, she was giving him a huge surprise every day!
The ink was not so easy to wash off. Mu Sen had dyed the white porcin sink ck. He had used up an entire bottle of facial cleanser, but his face was still a little ck.
As for Jing Xi, her whole body was ck and she couldnt wash herself clean. Mu Sen couldnt help her, so the two could only sit there and stare at each other.
Mu Sen still had to go to the hospital to work, so he could only change Jing Xis clothes and take her to the hospital.
Jing Xi didnt mind her face turning dark at all. She thought it was fun and couldnt stopughing. Last night, when she applied ink on mu Sens face, she had alreadyughed so hard that her stomach hurt. If she continuedughing, she would have ABS!
Mu Sen was too good-natured. If he painted Jing Ruis face like this, Jing Xi would definitely be beaten up.
Jing zhiren was too alert. He would probably wake up before she even touched his face, so she couldnt y a prank like this.
Mu Sen was still the best! He didnt have a perverted sense of vignce, nor did he have a terrifying martial strength. He had a good temper and was handsome. She would live at mu Sens ce in the future!
Mu Sen had a good temper. He was not angry at Jing Xi for disfiguring his face.
It was just a childs mischief. When they were young, mu duo was also very mischievous. He would just smile and it would pass.
He bought Jing Xi a lot of food and took her to his office. He stroked her soft hair and said with a smile,You y by yourself, I have to work!
Jing Xi grinned and said,Alright, Ill be obedient! I wont disturb your work!
Look, this little girl is still very sensible!
Mu Sen was very pleased. He felt thatst nights incident was just a coincidence.
He started to work with a peace of mind. He earnestly diagnosed the patients, prescribed medicine, or arranged for the seriously ill to be hospitalized.
Jing Xi was sitting in his office, but after a while, she couldnt sit still anymore. She started to touch here and there. When mu Sen was done, she looked up and saw that the little girl was gone.
Mu Sen immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He left the patient and ran out.
Jing Xi had been sitting in his office just now, and now she was gone. She couldnt have gone far.
There werent any bad people in the hospital, so they werent afraid that Jing Xi would be taken away. Most of the people who could be admitted to family MUs Hospital were rich and wouldnt engage in child trafficking.
When mu Sen found Jing Xi, he saw her crying on the ground. A group of people had surrounded her, pointing at a long-haired beauty.
He immediately stepped forward and picked Jing Xi up nervously.Xixi, whats wrong? Are you hurt anywhere?
When Jing Xi saw mu Sen, she cried even harder.
Mu Sens forehead was covered in sweat. He examined her from head to toe and even felt her pulse worriedly. He only rxed when he found that she was fine.
Jing Xi pursed her lips. Mu Sen was good in every way, but his medical skills were too good. He could see through her pretending to be injured.
However, this was not a problem for her.
Brother mu, this woman stepped on me just now and scolded me. I dont like her!
Jing Xi did not like her, but mu Sen liked her a little.
The woman standing quietly at the side was called Lou ruofei. She was the famous second miss of the Lou family in A city and also Lou Ziyis cousin. She was in the same primary school, middle school, and high school as mu Sen.
Lou ruofei had a quiet temperament and excellent upbringing. She was beautiful and elegant. One look and one could tell that she was a youngdy raised by a big family.
She hade today to see mu Sen. Her headache had been tormenting her for two to three years. Mu Sens acupuncture had been very effective, and she was bing more and more dependent on it.
Mu Sen and Lou ruofei had known each other for a long time. He didnt believe that Lou ruofei would trample on Jing Xi, nor did he believe that Lou ruofei would curse. After knowing each other for so many years, Lou ruofei had never said a single swear word.
He stood up with Jing Xi in his arms and apologized to Lou ruofei on Jing Xis behalf.Ruofei, my sister is just a little naughty. Im really sorry. Please dont take it to heart.
Jing Xis eyes widened in disbelief. She did not expect that mu Sen, who had always treated her like a princess and seemed to treat her better than Jing Rui and Jing Zhi, would not believe her at all. Instead, he was on Lou ruofeis side!
Lou ruofei obviously didnt expect mu Sen to apologize. She was slightly stunned and then smiled.No, mu Sen, I really did identally step on the little girl just now. I should be the one apologizing.
She reached out to touch Jing Xis little face, but Jing Xi dodged her angrily.
Lou ruofei didnt get angry. She retracted her hand naturally and smiled.Little girl, Im sorry. I didnt mean to. I didnt notice you behind me. Quickly ask your brother mu to help you!
Mu Sen was stunned. He really stepped on it?
He quickly carried Jing Xi back to his office and took off her shoes to check her feet without a word.
Lou ruofei also followed him in.It should be my left foot. Take a look and see if its serious. Im afraid I stepped on it a little too hard.
Mu Sen did a quick check and heaved a sigh of relief.
Although the back of Jing Xis foot was a little red and swollen, it was not really hurt. The swelling would go down in two days at most.

Chapter 1208: Ady from a wealthy family
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi looked at mu Sen in a daze, as if she was looking at a stranger, which made mu Sen feel a little ufortable.
He thought it was because Jing Xi was scared, or it was too painful. Heforted her in a gentle tone,Xixi, dont be afraid. Its fine! He said.
Afraid?
Up until now, Jing Xi had never had this word in her dictionary.
She was not afraid, she was sad.
As expected, mu Sen did not like her. He liked Lou ruofei!
In the past, many beautiful girls had approached him, but he was always indifferent. Only Lou ruofei would let him protect her.
Tears fell from Jing Xis eyes. Her feet hurt, and she felt sad. She didnt want to say a word.
Mu Sen did not believe her. Was it because she was too naughty?
He didnt believe her at all!
Jing Xi looked up at Lou ruofei, who was standing there gracefully and gently. She was dignified, polite, and had a good temperament, which was a strong contrast to her mischievous demonic nature.
She even openly admitted that she had stepped on her and said that it was a heavy step. She had no intention of evading it.
This was the first time Jing Xi had seen a realdy from a wealthy family.
None of the girls in the past were like Lou ruofei.
Jing Xi lowered her head slowly. She stopped crying and said calmly,Brother mu, I want to go home!
Mu Sen knew that the little girl was probably angry. He wanted tofort her, but when he saw how distant Jing Xi was from him, he felt as if his heart was being tugged at.
Its your brothers fault. I didnt take good care of you and even misunderstood you. But you cant walk now. Can you leave after your foot is swollen?
Not good, I want to leave!
Most of the time, Jing Xi was always smiling. Her personality was simr to Shangguan ning s. She was easy to talk to most of the time. But she had been treated like a princess since she was a child. She had her own pride and she had enough right to be proud.
She was the only girl of family Jing and the most distinguisheddy in A city!
She didnt need to sacrifice herself for others.
Jing Yichen had never taught her topromise.
Jing Yichen had always said,Xixi, do whatever you want. Even if the sky falls, Im still here.
Jing Yichen had never said a single harsh word to his daughter, even though she had always caused him a headache.
Otherwise, he would teach Jing Xi a hard lesson, and she would not dare to make a fuss again.
She waswless because of Jing Yichen.
Jing Xi jumped off the stool and walked out without even putting on her shoes and socks.
Mu Sen hurriedly chased after her and forced her to put on her shoes and socks. He picked her up and said,Xixi, Ill take you home.
He couldnt care less about Lou ruofei at this moment. Jing Xi was so young. How could he let her walk away barefooted?
Lou ruofei looked at mu Sens disappearing figure and helplessly rubbed her swollen forehead.
It was getting harder and harder to coax children these days!
She knew Jing Xi. She had met her before when she came to mu Sen for acupuncture, but she did not expect the little girl to be so hot-tempered.
She sat on the chair and rubbed her head, wondering if she should go to family Jing to apologize in person.
He was the precious child of family Jing and no one could afford to offend him.
Lou ruofeis head hurt, and her face gradually turned pale. She took out some painkillers and ate them. After the pain subsided a little, she left the hospital.
The building of Jingsheng enterprise had been under renovation for the past few days. Jing Rui did not go to work at the enterprise, but brought all his work home. He was surprised to know that mu Sen had sent Jing Xi back so soon.
Why was Jing Xi willing toe back?
Didnt she cry and shout that she wanted to live with mu Sen?
Have you suffered?
It only took a thought for Jing Rui to guess the truth.
He walked out of the study and saw Jing Xi in the living room. Her eyes were ck and swollen.
He picked his sister up and said coldly,Whats going on?
Mu Sen summoned up his courage and exined the situation.
Being stepped on was not a big deal, but it was not a small one either. Jing Rui immediately understood why his sister wanted to go home.
She said that she liked mu Sen. Mu Sen did not know about it, but Jing Rui did.
His expression was calm as he let mu Sen leave. There was no sign that his sister had been wronged and had beaten him up for her.
After mu Sen left, he asked,You dont like him anymore?
Jing Xi was curled up on the sofa, her head lowered, neither nodding nor shaking her head.
Jing Rui put her on his body and pinched her dark cheeks.Ill beat up the second miss of the Lou family for you! If she is disfigured, mu Sen will not like her anymore!
Jing Xi raised her head from his arms and pouted.Even if the second miss of the Lou family is gone, there will be otherdies. Moreover, I was stepped on by her today because I intentionally ran behind her. Its not all her fault.
She was not angry because she had been stepped on, but because mu Sen did not believe her.
Brother, I want to be ady from a wealthy family, like Lou ruofei!
These wordsing out of Jing Xis mouth were like a bolt of lightning!
It took Jing Rui a while toe back to his senses and realize what his sister was talking about.
Ady from a wealthy family?
Jing Rui had never seen Lou ruofei before. He didnt know if what Jing Xi meant by ady from a wealthy family was the same as what he had understood.
Youre not going to study explosives anymore? Youre not making tadpole-shaped sugar cubes anymore? No longer using the virus to y tricks on people? He had given up on pistols, bullets, and firecrackers? You only y with dolls and the piano every day?
I cant y with those things when Im ady from a wealthy family?
Jing Xi looked at her brother with wide eyes and said,I can y with that while being ady from a wealthy family! Find me a good teacher and teach me to be ady!
Jing Rui knew that she would never give up on those things.
It turned out that she just wanted a good-looking appearance and temperament that could deceive people!
However, this was already not easy. She knew how to pretend to be an obedient girl. This was also a huge improvement. At least, she could scare people.
Maybe one of Jing Xis admirers would be fooled and be the son-inw of the Jing family.
Jing Rui wanted to thank Lou ruofei for changing Jing Xi. It was a rare sight in eight years!
Jing Rui immediately agreed to Jing Xis request. Didnt she want to be ady? The Jing family had no shortage of etiquette teachers in this area, and they could even hire someone from the United Kingdom Royal family to teach Jing Xi.
Maybe it was because Lou ruofei had given Jing Xi too much stimtion, or maybe it was because of mu Sens distrust that made her feel a strong sense of motivation. She did notin orin about being tired. She even stopped ying with her favorite pistol and quickly entered a state of learning.
On the second day after Jing Xi returned home, Lou ruofei came to apologize with a big gift.
Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were there, but the one who received Lou ruofei was Shuyin.
Chapter 1209
Chapter 1209: A standarddy
Trantor: 549690339
When Jing Zhi heard that Jing Xi had been bullied, he almost went to the Lou family. When he saw Lou ruofei today, he did not look happy at all.
However, he was also very curious as to what kind of person could make the little demoness change for the better!
Lou ruofei gave people a different feeling. Her every move was carefully raised, generous, and calm.
In terms of appearance, she wasnt too outstanding. She wasnt the kind of beauty that could stun people, but with her charm, she had an unforgettable beauty.
Even when she sat in front of the cold and beautiful Shu Yin, no one could ignore her. Shu Yin was so beautiful that most women would pale inparison when they sat beside her.
And she had an extraordinary way of talking. She was not moved by the two outstanding men of family Jing at all, nor did she have any intention of clinging to them.
Her sincere apology was well-mannered and polite, which made Jing Rui and Jing Zhi think highly of her.
The Lou family could actually cultivate such a daughter. Their strength, Foundation, and vision were all very good!
Jing Zhi didnt have a good impression of the Lou family because of Lou Ziyi, but his impression of the Lou family changed after he met Lou ruofei.
To be able to raise such an outstanding daughter, the son must be good too. In the next ten years, the Lou family would definitely Rise Up!
Fortunately, the Lou family was under the Jing familys influence, otherwise, it would have made people feel uneasy.
Lou ruofei stayed for less than ten minutes before she left. However, Shuyin sighed at the fact that she had only stayed for ten minutes.
She finally understood why Mu Sen liked Lou ruofei!
If it were her, she would like it too.
Jing Zhi was lying on the sofa with his legs crossed. He touched his chin and said,Thest time I saw Lou Ziyi, I didnt think the Lou family was that powerful. Why do I feel that they are more dedicated to raising their daughter? Why cant I find any fault with this Lou ruofei?
Shuyin also felt that Lou ruofei couldnt find any fault with it. She smiled. Shes almost perfect. No wonder Xixi was so upset. Shes a good role model, he said.
Jing Rui was the only one who did not think much of Lou ruofei.
He was a person who had received the real aristocratic etiquette in the royal family. He had seen the so-called princesses and princes. The women he hade into contact with were too many to be counted, and many of them were at Lou ruofeis level.
What he was concerned about was different from Jing Zhi and Shu Yin.
Lou ruofei and Lou Ziyi were cousins, and their fathers were biological brothers. In recent years, the development of the Lou family had been mediocre. If it werent for the support from the Jing family, the Lou family would have lost its former glory.
At present, the one in charge of the Lou family was Lou Ziyis father, Lou mingzhen.
Lou ruofeis father, Lou Mingyang, was the second child of the Lou family. Under the Halo of Lou mingzhen, he had always been somewhat unknown.
If he had not met Lou ruofei today, Jing Rui would not have realized that the most powerful person in the Lou family might not be Lou mingzhen, but Lou Mingyang, who rarely showed his face.
Children were often the best mirrors for their parents. Many of their characteristics were oftenpletely inherited from their parents, such as their appearance, temperament, cultivation, and even heart.
Lou ruofei had only identally stepped on Jing Xis foot, and she hade to apologize in full sincerity. She did not avoid this matter, nor did she think that Jing Xi was a child and that this kind of thing could be pushed to a child.
She had admitted her mistake openly and family Jing would not care about it as long as they were not petty and scheming.
Jing Rui thought that maybe it was time for Jing Yichen to meet Lou Mingyang when he came back from his vacation.
Lou ruofei didnt know that in just ten minutes, Jing Rui had guessed that Lou Mingyang was hiding his strength and biding his time.
She got into her white Volvo and drove for a short distance before her head started to hurt.
She stopped the car and took two painkiller pills. It took a while for her to feel better.
Lou ruofeis back was drenched in cold sweat. A bitter smile appeared on her lips, but it quickly disappeared. Her face returned to its usual calm andposed state. She drove to family MUs Hospital.
Jing Xi didnt see Lou ruofei. She had already started her etiquette ss.
She used to hate learning these things. Every time Jing Yichen arranged a teacher for her, she would trick one away, so that no etiquette teacher was willing to teach her anymore.
But now, she had an unprecedented motivation!
No one would like him if he didnt change his image and temperament!
Jing Rui and Jing Zhi used to be killers, but they never wanted to marry a female killer.
She wasnt a female killer, but she was already close to the female devil!
It didnt matter if she was a female devil, the key was that she couldnt expose herself. She could put on a veil of ady from a big family!
In order to ensure the results of the learning, Jing Rui arranged closed training for Jing Xi.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning had gone abroad, so the house was empty. Jing Xi could study at home and get familiar with the environment.
Her life of trouble-making had finallye to an end.
No matter how busy Jing Rui was, he woulde to see her every day. From the look in his eyes, to his expression, to the way he spoke, to the way he sat ory, to the way he walked, and even the details of how he ate, Jing Xi began to change little by little.
Just two monthster, she seemed to have changed into a different person, shocking everyone!
She was obedient and did not make trouble. She just sat there like an adult, which made Jing Rui and Jing Zhi feel a little weird.
This was not the Jing Xi they knew!
Jing Zhi was the most afraid of her. He had a bad feeling about this.
How could a person change into another person in two months?
He always felt that Jing Xi had hidden all her bad intentions in the deepest part of her heart!
Usually, Jing Xis bad intentions were obvious and everyone could see it, but now ...
Jing Zhi shivered. Was this girl hiding all her ideas?
He couldnt even deal with it in the open, if it was in the dark, wouldnt he be dead?
Um ... Brother, I still have to go back to the corporation to continue being your security guard. Its quite busy over there. You can chat with our sister first. Im leaving!
Jing Xi gave a standarddylike smile and said in a crisp voice,Second brother, dont go!
Jing Zhi shuddered. Instead of stopping, he ran even faster.
Jing Xi wanted to roll her eyes, but that action would seriously ruin herdylike image, so she held back.
Sigh, really, she had juste out of seclusion and scared second brother away. She felt that she was very obedient and harmless, so why was second brother afraid?
In fact, she had just wanted to remind Jing Zhi that the zipper of his pants was open.
Chapter 1210
Chapter 1210: Why are you in such a hurry to torture each other?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui didnt notice that Jing Zhis zipper was open. He was focused on Jing Xi.
Jing Xi was very independent. She could dress and eat by herself when she was very young. Shangguan ning had taught her daughter how to take care of herself. She had even taught her how to match colors and clothes.
In the past, Jing Xi liked to dress herself like a doll, wearing a princess dress, long socks, and small leather boots.
However, ever since the etiquette ss, she had changed her style. Although she was still wearing a dress, it was not as exaggerated as before. Instead, she changed into a more fresh and elegant dress. She did not wear stockings anymore and her shoes were changed into simple canvas shoes.
Jing Xi was taller than her peers, and she did not look like an eight-year-old child when she was dressed up.
However, it only took five minutes for Jing Xi to break.
Without any care for her image, she leaned on the sofa and asked in a tender voice,I havent been here for the past two months. Did anything big happen outside?
It was as if she was the leader of some country. Her tone was not the usual kind of big. Coupled with her child-like voice, there was an indescribable kind of funny feeling.
Jing Rui said calmly,is that all youve learned? Did the teachers teach you to sit like this?
Aiya, I dont need to hide anything in front of my own brother! Acting in front of you is a waste of your intelligence! Ill learn it for another two years before I can act well!
It was indeed an act!
Two months was of no use to Jing Xi!
Jing Rui sighed.Youd better continue your closed-door training. Youre as distance away from Lou ruofei.
Jing Xi tried to set a trap for her brother.Shes so much better than me? It just looks ordinary!
Shes not ordinary.
Your own sister cant evenpare to her?
Im just telling the truth. At least shes not acting. Its the elegance thates from her bones. Youd better train for another eight to ten years!
Aiya, brother, you have a very high opinion of her! Shes not even pretty, whats with your eyes!
Beauty is rted to the outside, but it doesnt entirely rely on the outside. Havent you heard of the poem a person who is filled with poetry and books will be blessed with elegance ? I dont need you to do it too well, as long as you can scare people.
Jing Xi sighed and shook her head. She took out her custom-made phone and waved it at Jing Rui.Okay, brother, Ive recorded everything you said just now. Ill y it for my sister-inw when shees home from school! Do you think youll be chased out to sleep on the streets tonight?
Jing Ruis face darkened. He had only praised Lou ruofei to educate Jing Xi. If Shuyin heard this, she would misunderstand!
Delete it!
He had actually caught something against him. After two months of closed-door cultivation, his etiquette had not improved much, but his mind had grown a lot. He had even learned how to threaten him with voice recordings!
The devilish brat was getting more and more mischievous by the day!
Jing Xi stuffed the phone into her clothes and sat up straight. She straightened her back and said,Come and get it. Ill give it to you when I get it.
Jing Rui saw her stuffing the phone into her chest, making her undeveloped chest look like a big girl now.
How could he take it out!
He felt a headacheing on and thought that no one would be able to cure Jing Xi in this life.
If you dare to let your sister-inw hear this, Ill lock you up for a year and you cant go out to y for a year!
Aiya, were all siblings, why are we in such a hurry to fight?
You also know that we are biological siblings?
Jing Rui felt that if he said another word to Jing Xi, he would throw the little girl into the fire. He stood up and went to the study to work with a dark face.
Anyway, he was not interested in Lou ruofei at all, and Shuyin had enough trust in Him. Even if Jing Xiined, it would be useless.
Moreover, he felt that his sister wouldnt be so cruel as to tell Shuyin about this and cause the two of them to quarrel.
However, Jing Rui had underestimated his sisters magic. In the evening, as soon as Shuyin came home, Jing Xi pulled her to listen to the recording and even yed dirty tricks on her brother.Sister-inw, my brother is so bad. He said that Lou ruofei is prettier than you!
Shuyin smiled. She hugged Jing Xi and pinched her cute little face.You made it up, right? Your brother would never say something like that. He would only say,Im the second most beautiful woman in the world!
She did not look jealous at all. She smiled happily and did not seem to take Jing Ruis praise seriously.
Jing Xi looked at Shu Yin in surprise.You trust my brother that much? Besides, why are you so happy when he says youre second in the world? Shouldnt a man praise you for your beauty when hes coaxing a woman?
Shu mu couldnt help but kiss Jing Xi on the forehead.I havent seen you for two months, and youre getting cuter and cuter!
It would be great if she had a daughter like this!
She was so weird that she actually tricked her own brother. Wasnt she afraid of being spanked?
The one who stole the worlds most beautiful woman was your mother! She deserves it. Im already very surprised that Im ranked second!
Oh? Jing Xi immediately realized what he meant.So, Im only third in terms of beauty? No, no, no, Im fourth. Brother just said that Lou ruofei is prettier than me!
She held her chin and sighed like a little adult,This is really a sad thing. Why am I not number one in the world? My mom said that Im prettier than her! Sis-inw, why are you so easily satisfied?
Although she was sighing, her eyes were sparkling and full of smiles.
She knew that she wouldnt seed in sowing discord. Shuyin didnt believe that her brother would like another woman.
How rare. Wouldnt women get jealous immediately when they encounter such a thing? Shouldnt she be crying first?
Her sister-inw really did not take the ordinary path. Her brother had picked up a treasure!
Jing Rui stood by the railing on the second floor and looked down at the two of them talking. The atmosphere was warm and beautiful.
He knew that Shuyin wouldnt easily doubt his feelings. They had only been engaged for two months, and he had taken care of Shuyin so much that their feelings for each other had grown stronger and stronger. They were like glue, and it wasnt something that could be broken apart with a few words.
However, he felt that it was still not enough. They needed to have a deeper rtionship, and it would be best if it could be unbreakable.
Recently, Zishans actions had be more and more frequent. In fact, all kinds of undercurrents had already begun to surge in city A, but Shuyin was unaware of it.
Shucheng Shans death was a hidden bomb that would be ignited and blown up by Zishan at any time.
On the sofa downstairs, Shuyin wasbing Jing Xis hair slowly and braided her hair. Her expression was gentle, and she smiled sweetly. Such a scene was the most beautiful picture.
He would not allow anyone to destroy it.

Chapter 1211: Another pretty good looking man!

Jing Xi thought that she had learned something, so she went to family MUs Hospital to find mu Sen the next day.
Coincidentally, Lou ruofei was also there.
Today, Lou ruofei was very different from the Lou ruofei that Jing Xi had seen before. She was sitting on a chair, her face pale and bloodless, and her whole head was full of silver needles. As long as she moved, all the silver needles would shake with her. Jing Xi had only seen this scene in movies!
It was a little funny, but Jing Xi could notugh.
Because Lou ruofei looked like she was in too much pain!
She was in so much pain that she bit her lips, but she didnt make a sound. She was so strong that it moved people and made people pity her.
Mu Sen, who was performing acupuncture on her, had an obvious look of heartache in his eyes. Jing Xi could not ignore it even if she wanted to.
She had never seen mu Sens heart ache when he was treating other patients. If the doctors Heart ached for every patient, he would die from angina!
Brother mu, what illness does this sister have? Can you cure her?
Jing Xi stood obediently at the side, not getting close to mu Sen or Lou ruofei. Acupuncture was a delicate work. If she got too close and identally touched the two of them, she would be dead.
Mu Sens face was a little pale after the acupuncture, but he smiled at Jing Xi and said,Its fine. Its just a small problem. It can be cured.
Mu Sen didnt say what the illness was. Lou ruofeis lips revealed a bitter smile, but she didnt exin.
However, she did notice the change in Jing Xi.
The little girls gestures already looked like an adult s. Thest time they met, she wasnt like this. Why did she change so much in two months?
Lou ruofei didnt know that she was the one who had caused Jing Xis change. She advocated being a realdy of a noble family and was strict with her own words and actions. She was quite happy for Jing Xis change.
In terms of status, Jing Xi was the most respected socialite in the entire A city. When she grew up, she would be the most eye-catching girl.
At that time, there would definitely be a lot of people talking about her and even picking on her. She had better be perfect, otherwise, there might be a scandal every day.
The Lou family wasnt the top family in city A and was often suppressed and excluded by other families. However, Lou ruofei herself was so hard that no one could find a ce to attack her.
This was not only because she had a high EQ and IQ, but also because she had a good upbringing.
Lou ruofei had already apologized for stepping on Jing Xi. Once, she had apologized directly to Jing Xi, and the other time, she had specially gone to her house to apologize to her family. That was enough.
So Lou ruofei didnt mention this again.
However, Jing Xis arrival had distracted her, and the treatment process was not so difficult.
Lou Ziyi came when her treatment was almost over.
In this generation of the Lou family, other than Lou ruofeis younger brother, Lou Ziyi was the most idle. The family business was managed by his brother and sister. He was almost carefree, so the task of picking up Lou ruofei fell on his head.
When Lou ruofeis headache acted up, she couldnt drive. Every time she came for treatment, Lou Ziyi would pick her up.
Feifei, are you feeling better? Im notte, right?
A smile finally appeared on Lou ruofeis pale face. She affectionately called him second brother and said, Youvee at the right time. Its about to end. Im much better now. I have to thank mu Sen foring to trouble him once a month.
Lou Ziyi immediately thanked mu Sen,My sisters illness is all thanks to you. Last time, second uncle and second aunt said that they would prepare a gift to thank you.
Youre wee. Im a doctor and I grew up with ruofei. Im happy to be able to help her.
Mu Sen smiled and made small talk with Lou Ziyi. Even though Lou Ziyi was only Lou ruofeis cousin and not her biological brother, mu Sen was still very friendly.
As long as it was Lou ruofeis family, he would be more enthusiastic.
He had to leave a good impression on her family.
Looking at Lou ruofei and Lou Ziyi, she knew that they had a good rtionship as cousins. She had never seen Lou ruofeis younger brother pick her up, but Lou Ziyi was more diligent and attentive.
Mu Sen had only met Lou ruofeis brother once. He was a little antisocial and not easy to get along with. Lou Ziyi was easier to get along with.
Jing Xi was listening to their conversation. She was more mature and not a child. She understood why Mu Sen was more enthusiastic about Lou Ziyi than Jing Rui and Jing Zhi.
She was a little sad and felt that she was unnecessary. The three of them looked like a family, but she was like a high-watt light bulb. Lou Ziyi had looked at her several times.
Jing Xi looked down at her small body, and then at Lou ruofeis chubby and curvaceous body. She blew a bubble in disappointment.
After blowing bubbles, she was shocked to realize that her behavior just now was not in line with the standards of ady from a wealthy family.
Sigh, she still had a lot to learn!
Look at Lou ruofei. She was in so much pain, but she didnt make a sound. If it were her, she would have cried.
Her head was clearly full of silver needles, so dazzling that it was almost dizzying, but she didnt look ugly at all. She still sat there with a calm demeanor.
How could he still sit still when he was in so much pain?
Jing Xi rested her chin on her hands and pondered curiously.
Inadvertently, she looked at Lou Ziyi and then realized that Lou Ziyi was also a handsome man. At first nce, he looked ordinary, but the more she looked at him, the more handsome he became.
He was the kind of person who looked gentler and more sunny than mu Sen. He was a modest gentleman, gentle and elegant. There was no sense of utilitarianism on him, only a pure schrly air.
Jing Xis eyes lit up.Oh, another handsome man!
It didnt seem like a bad idea to marry such a person!
Seeing that he was so concerned about his cousin Lou ruofei, he would definitely be very good to his wife in the future!
She did not know if he still liked Zheng yuluo.
Jing Xi thought for a moment. Who cares? Ill just take it first! Zheng yuluo didnt like him anyway, and with Jing Zhi around, she couldnt be with Lou Ziyi.
Jing Xi got off the chair gracefully and walked toward Lou Ziyi.
Aiyo!
She identally fell beside Lou Ziyi. Lou Ziyi subconsciously bent down and picked her up.You must be Jing Xi, right? Did you hurt?
Eh, he actually knew her!
They seemed to have only met once before, and they had never spoken to each other, right?
It seemed that her unrivaled beauty had attracted the attention of beautiful men!
Jing Xi wasughing in her heart, but her little face was crying.
It hurts! My knee hurts!
Mu Sen was shocked. He was afraid that something would happen to Jing Xi again at his ce. He quickly lifted her ankle-length skirt to see how her knee injury was.
He didnt expect Jing Xi to cover it up and not let him see it.
My mother said that I cant let a man lift my skirt!
Her knees were fine, but if she lifted her skirt, she would be exposed!
Chapter 1212
Chapter 1212: Love the new and hate the old
Trantor: 549690339
Mu Sen would not hug Jing Xi to sleep, but he did not have any psychological barrier when he saw her knees. However, when he saw the little girls serious rejection, his hand that was lifting her skirt could only freeze there.
Im your older brother. Im just looking at your knee. Dont cover it. Ill see if its injured.
Im fine, Im fine. Im much better now!
Jing Xi was still holding on to her dress tightly, her face red.
Ive already grown up. My mother said that brother cant lift my skirt!
Mu Sen finally lost. If he touched Jing Xis skirt again, he would be a hooligan!
While they were talking, Jing Xi had been leaning on Lou Ziyi. Lou Ziyi was a gentleman and kept her in his arms to prevent her from falling.
Jing Xi turned to him and said seriously,Big brother, thank you. If you didnt help me just now, I might have fallen even harder!
No one would have thought that the eight-year-old girl had fallen beside Lou Ziyi on purpose because of his good looks.
Lou Ziyi felt that the little girl did not cry when she fell and was so polite. She must be a well-mannered girl.
Even Lou ruofei had changed her opinion of Jing Xi. Thest time she stepped on Jing Xi, she was crying on the ground and refused to get up, which attracted a lot of people in the hospital.
Youre wee. If I knew you would fall, I would have supported you in advance!
Lou Ziyi blinked at Jing Xi and smiled gently.
He quite liked children. His heart would soften when he saw obedient children.
Lou ruofei had only told her father, Lou Mingyang, that she had stepped on Jing Xi. She had not told anyone else, so Lou Ziyi did not know that Jing Xi was not very well-behaved.
He squatted down to talk to Jing Xi, and soon found that the little girl knew a lot of things. Her eloquence was clear, her mind was quick, and her knowledge was so broad that it made him, an adult, feel ashamed!
He soon forgot about his cousin and was so shocked that his tone had changed. He no longer treated Jing Xi as a child.
Jing Xi didnt think that Jing Yichens teaching was useful, but now it seemed that knowledge was power!
His father was really far-sighted!
Mu Sen saw that the two of them were chatting happily and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
He pulled out all the needles for Lou ruofei and prescribed her medicine.The medicine this time has something to soothe the nerves. You should take less painkillers. Its harmful to your body to take them every day. I still suggest you have surgery. Acupuncture cant cure it.
Lou ruofei smiled gratefully.Yes, Ill think about it. Acupuncture is still useful now. Ill wait for a while and see.
Thats good! The sess rate of the operation is very high, so dont be afraid. When the timees, my dad will be the chief surgeon, and the scar wont be obvious. We just need to shave our hair.
Lou ruofei had always been afraid of surgery. First, she was afraid that the surgery would fail and she would lose her life. Second, she was afraid that an ugly scar would be left on her head.
To someone like her who was a perfectionist, this was intolerable.
She would rather suffer a little every day than to have an open skull operation.
Moreover, the surgery might not be able to cure her illness. It was very risky and she did not want to try it easily.
However, she had never told mu Sen about this. For such matters, she only needed to know in her heart and did not need to exin it to outsiders.
While the two of them were talking, Lou Ziyi and Jing Xi were also having a good chat.
Lou Ziyi had always been well-protected by his brothers and sisters at home. Hecked social experience, but he was knowledgeable. He was good at eating, drinking, and ying, just like Jing Xi.
The two of them looked as if they had regretted not meeting each other earlier. If Lou ruofei had not been feeling unwell and had to go home, Lou Ziyi would have stayed in the hospital and chatted with Jing Xi for the whole day.
Jing Xi watched Lou Ziyi leave. The smile on her face disappeared, and she was lost in thought.
How could she have another chance encounter with Lou Ziyi?
Maybe she could start from Lou ruofei.
Brother mu, does sister ruofeie to see the doctor every month?
Yes, she basicallyes once a month. Why are you so concerned about her now? I didnt think you liked her thest time.
Mu Sen had feelings for Lou ruofei, so he naturally hoped that Jing Xi would also like Lou ruofei.
He had thought that after what had happenedst time, Jing Xi would not talk to Lou ruofei anymore. He did not expect that she seemed to have forgotten about that incident at all.
It seemed that children were forgetful. Yesterday, they might have been fighting each other to death, but today, they became good friends again.
I quite like sister ruofei! Shes a good person, pretty, and has a special temperament. I think shes a good match for you!
Mu Sen was overjoyed by Jing Xis words and suddenly burst intoughter.Not bad, you have good taste!
Jing Xi felt a little sad when she saw how happy he was.
She had just casuallyplimented her and mu Sen took it seriously. Everything about Lou ruofei was probably beautiful in his eyes.
Her looks were above average, not some stunning beauty. Why did mu Sen like her so much?
Jing Xi sighed and decided to focus all her attention on Lou Ziyi, and then go find out if he had any woman he liked.
If he had one too, she would cklist this person as well!
It was a pity that she had a mature heart at such a young age and liked more mature and steady boys. However, the mature and steady men all treated her like a little girl, and it was difficult to evenmunicate with them.
Fortunately, Lou Ziyi did not treat her like an ordinary child.
This mans character, appearance, and family background were all good. He would definitely be a good husband in the future!
Although Jing Xi refused to admit that she was a child, she was indeed a child. She quickly forgot about mu Sen and began to attack another target.
A monthter, Jing Xi coincidentally met Lou Ziyi, who had sent Lou ruofei for acupuncture at family MUs Hospital.
With Jing Xis doll-like appearance, as long as she didnt show her true face, almost no one would dislike her.
In front of Lou Ziyi, she maintained her image as an obedient girl. She told him that she had been learning how to draw and y the zither recently, while she tried to find out Lou Ziyis preferences.
For Jing Xi, chess, calligraphy, and music were of little value. She was not interested in them. She preferred to y with explosives and viruses.
However, in order to show that she was ady from a well-known family, she had learned a little of everything, and it was enough to fool people.
For example, today, she quickly drew a portrait of Lou Ziyi.
Lou Ziyi took it and looked at it. He almostughed out loud!
Jing Xi was drawing a pig. How could it be him?
Xixi, did you draw me like this on purpose? Do I look that ugly?
Chapter 1213
Chapter 1213: Lou ruofei
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi was not good at drawing people, but she was very good at drawing pigs, so she could only draw pigs.
However, it seemed that Lou Ziyi didnt mind being drawn as a pig. Heughed heartily, showing that he was a very good-tempered person.
Jing Xi liked good-tempered people who were willing to coax her.
Lou Ziyi and mu Sen were basically the same kind of people. They were modest, gentle, and cheerful.
This kind of person had the same title, warm man!
Jing Xi felt that her men were all too cold and emotionless. Warm men were better. They always had a sunny smile on their faces. Just looking at them made her feel good.
Sheughed and joked with Lou Ziyi, then took out the gift she had prepared from her backpack and handed it to him.
Brother Ziyi, I made a bracelet for myself. Ill give it to you, okay?
Lou Ziyi was a little surprised that Jing Xi would give him a gift. He took it with a smile and put it on his wrist.This is Obsidian, right? It was quite beautiful! However, big brother doesnt have anything fun with him. Ill make it up to you next time!
Obsidian wasnt expensive. It had strong energy, but it was very suitable for men. It was used to ward off evil and bnce the maic field in the human body. Lou Ziyi had worn it before.
However, he didnt know that the Obsidian also had a hint. When a girl gave this to a boy, it was usually to express her love for him, indicating that she hoped that he could always be happy.
Of course, Jing Xi knew what he meant, but she did not choose the Obsidian because of that.
Instead, it was because only a ck gem like obsidian could hide the fact that the virus was hidden inside.
Brother Ziyi, its good that you like it! I was afraid that you wouldnt like it. Thest time we met, I thought that this would suit you!
Jing Xi was lying. She had asked Jing Rui to buy the Obsidian for her to hide the virus.
The virus she had stolen from Shuyin was actually a rare ck, and the bracelet was made because she had no choice.
She was worried that Lou Ziyi would fall in love with another woman, so she wanted to use the virus to disturb the hormones in his body and make him lose interest in women for a short time.
Anyway, she was so young that she probably wasnt a woman in Lou Ziyis eyes.
However, this virus would only take effect if he was in constant contact with Lou Ziyi. If he stopped wearing the bracelet or the virus in the bracelet slowly dissipated, it would also be ineffective.
Its a virus thats of little value. Its harmless to the human body, but it will affect ... Sexual orientation a little.
Lou Ziyi did not know that the little girl, who was like an angel, was actually a little devil. He was happy to receive a gift, but he felt embarrassed that he had not prepared a gift for Jing Xi.
After Lou ruofei was done with her acupuncture, on their way home, Lou Ziyi asked Lou ruofei what kind of gift she should give the little girl.
Lou ruofei knew that Lou Ziyi had received a gift. Her face was pale, but because of Jing Xi, she was in good spirits.
Jing Xi had brought them a lot of joy today. The little girl was mischievous and spoke like a little adult, which made people happy easily.
Sheughed and teased Lou Ziyi,second brother, youve killed everyone from the age of eight to eighty. Youre so charming! You see, I met Jing Xi earlier than you, but I didnt receive a gift. Youre asking me what gift Im going to give you in return? youre showing off!
Lou ruofei knew that Lou Ziyi had always liked Zheng yuluo. After being rejected by her, he had been depressed for a long time.
It was only after Yang gave him a good scolding that he slowly recovered.
Lou Ziyi had never experienced any setbacks in his life. Everything had been smooth for him, and he had everything he wanted. There were also many girls who pursued him.
Lou ruofei had always felt that there were only benefits and no disadvantages to his breakup.
Heartbreak was painful, but it also made people grow up quickly.
At least Lou Ziyi was not as innocent as before. He knew that he had to contribute to the family and protect the interests of the whole family. He even cared more about his cousin.
Their marriage would not be decided by themselves in the future. They might need to use marriage to strengthen their familys status.
This was also the reason why Lou ruofei had never given mu Sen a reply.
Of course, mu Sen had never directly said it. His care and care were very subtle. Lou ruofei could pretend not to know. At least the two of them could still be friends.
The MU family was not within the scope of the Lou familys marriage alliance. Lou ruofei knew very well that she could not be moved by mu Sen.
The best marriage partner would be family Jing.
It was a pity that Jing Rui was engaged and Jing Zhis heart belonged to someone else, so it was hard to shake their rtionship.
If Lou Ziyi could marry Jing Xi, it would be the perfect marriage for the Lou family!
Now, Jing Xi liked Lou Ziyi, which was a good development trend. If Jing Xi married into the Lou family in the future, the Lou family would treat her with the greatest sincerity, and her status in the Lou family would be unparalleled.
Lou ruofei knew Lou Ziyis personality very well. He was kind and had a good temper. Even if Jing Xi had a temper, he would definitely tolerate her, love her, and not let her suffer.
However, Lou Ziyi was twelve years older than Jing Xi, so the Jing family might not agree to this marriage.
The best way was to make Jing Xi fall in love with Lou Ziyi, and love him to death. Then the Jing family would follow Jing Xis heart and marry her into the Lou family.
It was a pity that Jing Xi was still a child and did not know what love was. She could not sacrifice Jing Xis happiness for her familys benefit.
Many thoughts shed through Lou ruofeis mind, but she didnt show them on her face.
Lou Ziyi didnt know what his cousin was thinking. He was still thinking about Jing Xis crisp voice. There was a smile on his handsome face, and he was talking about all kinds of gifts, but he felt that none of them were appropriate.
...Tourmaline? Manao? Pearl? Diamond? No, no, no, these are all too tacky. The Jing family doesntck anything. I dont think its strange to give Jing Xi anything. I dont think we should give her anything like gems. If we should, we should give her something fun.
Do you think she likes parrots? It can talk and its very smart. I remember that one of my buddies has one. Its very pretty!
Flowers, grass, or small fish will do too. Do children like these things now?
Second brother, Lou ruofei said with a smile,Ill help you pick a gift. I guarantee that Ill pick one that the little girl will like. Lets be nice to Xixi. Shes a good girl.
Her upbringing made it difficult for her to scheme against an eight-year-old girl.
All she could do was try her best to make Lou Ziyi treat Jing Xi well. Even if they couldnt be a family in the future, at least they couldnt be enemies.
Making friends had always been a life philosophy that her father Lou Mingyang had taught her.
Chapter 1214
Chapter 1214: Marriage alliance
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi didnt know that she was thinking about someone else, and that someone else was also thinking about her.
She suddenly realized that she seemed to be a little fonder of the new and tired of the old. She had recently taken a fancy to Lou Ziyi and had quickly forgotten about mu Sen.
When Jing Rui came to the hospital to pick her up, he saw that she had left without any hesitation. He asked curiously,You dont like mu Sen anymore?
I dont like it anymore!
She answered without any hesitation, and Jing Rui could not help butugh.
Even if his sister was a genius, even if she was more mature than the other children, she was still a child.
If a normal girl really liked someone, how could she stop liking him so quickly?
He thought that his sister had returned to the world of a child, but he didnt expect her to continue,I like Lou Ziyi now!
Who?! Jing Rui stumbled.
Lou Ziyi. He seems to like me a lot. Hes a good person and is very gentle to me. I like him!
Jing Rui could tell that Jing Xi liked men who were gentle and had a good temper. It was a totally different kind of love from an adult.
However, he did not treat Jing Xi as a child. Instead, he said directly,As far as I know, he likes Zheng yuluo. You have to think about it carefully.
Jing Xi didnt care at all and smiled brightly.Its okay, who doesnt have an ex-girlfriend or ex-boyfriend? didnt I like someone else before? You cant be sessful in a rtionship on the first try, Im saving up for now!
This was the first time he heard that dating could be saved up first!
Besides, eight years old was too early to fall in love!
Jing Rui took Jing Xi into the car and drove her home. He had a headache about his sisters puppy love problem, but he didnt think it was a bad thing.
Girls could not be too innocent, as they would be easily deceived by bad men. Jing Rui did not mind his sister practicing with mu Sen and Lou Ziyi.
Anyway, with Jing Xis status as the daughter of the Jing family, they would definitely not dare to let her suffer.
The Lou family will definitely be willing to marry into our family. You have to be careful whether he likes you or your status. The Lou family is a subsidiary family of the Jing family. We have proposed a marriage alliance before, but my father rejected it.
Jing Xi still didnt care. She rolled her eyes. Im inseparable from my identity. Dont worry, hell definitely like both my identity and me! Even if you dont like me, you wont like anyone else!
As she spoke, she couldnt help but giggle.
The Obsidian you bought for me, I strung it up and gave it to Lou Ziyi! Theres a little something added to it!
For Jing Rui, Obsidian was not worth much. Even the best ice Obsidian was not worth much. If Jing Xi wanted to y with it, he would get someone to buy it.
It turned out that she had bought it to scam people!
Now that he had be smarter, he knew not to throw firecrackers or viruses at people directly. He knew how to cover up for himself!
If an innocent person like Lou Ziyi were to marry Jing Xi, he would be tortured by her every day!
What did you add? Virus? Dont cause trouble for your sister-inw. If hes infected with a virus, only your sister-inw can cure it in the entire A city. Ive been sending Peter out recently, so it cant go and save anyone.
Aiya, dont worry. When have you seen me take someones life? My sister-inw doesnt need to do anything. The virus will onlyst for a month at most. Itll just make him not like women for the time being.
This was even more painful than taking someones life!
What did Lou Ziyi do in his past life that Jing Xi had to turn him gay?
Dont mess around. Hes from the Lou family, and were on the same side. How can you trick your own people? Hurry up and find a chance to get the Obsidian Back. If they find out that theres something wrong with it, they wont like you anymore!
Its so embarrassing to take back something Ive given away. I wont do it!
You can say that Obsidian is too cheap and you want to give him something more expensive.
Jing Xis eyes lit up. Why didnt I think of that!
When the Obsidian Bracelet lost its effect, she could use this method to send another type of bracelet with additional ingredients!
Jing Rui thought that his sister had realized her mistake and was going to take the bracelet back. He smiled and felt that he had taught his sister better and better.
Jing Xi didnt need to pretend to be ady in front of her brother. She sat in the passenger seat and suddenly asked,Brother, you said that the Lou family has thought of marriage. Who do they want you to marry? Lou ruofei? Or Lou ruofu?
Lou ruofu was Lou Ziyis sister and Lou ruofeis cousin.
Jing Xi didnt know the exact age of Lou ruofu and Lou ruofei, but she knew that Lou Ziyi was 20 years old this year. Lou ruofu was at least 21 or 22 years old, and Lou ruofei was definitely under 20.
Jing Rui was 20 years old this year. Lou ruofei was the most suitable candidate for the marriage.
Jing Rui did not expect his sister to be so sensitive that she could guess that he was the one who proposed the marriage.
Why would I be the one to arrange a marriage? he said calmly.Other than me, theres still you and Jingzhi in our family. Im already engaged. Why would I need to arrange a marriage?
You cant lie to me about that, Jing Xi said, pursing her lips.Youre only getting engaged this year. Youve never been engaged before. In the past, second brother didnte home at all. Everyone thought that he had gone missing or even lost his life. The Lou family wouldnt mention him. As for me, Im just a little kid. By the time I grow up and get married, itll be toote!
Jing Rui was amused by her. So she knew that she was a child.
Lou ruofu was the candidate the Lou family suggested for the marriage.
Eh, its not Lou ruofei?
No, Jing Rui shook his head.
Why? Why would their family choose someone older than you?
Thats because Lou ruofu is more scheming than Lou ruofei. Shes involved in all the big and small matters of the Lou family. Her leadership ability is outstanding. Also, I heard that Lou ruofu is even more beautiful, while Lou ruofeis looks are too ordinary. Theyre afraid that they cant tie my heart.
Aiya, how beautiful can she be? I dont believe that shes more beautiful than my sister-inw!
Thats true, Jing Rui chuckled.Yinyin is definitely better looking.
He didnt think that anyone could be prettier than Shuyin. Jing Rui had never seen Lou ruofu before. The only person who had seen Lou ruofu and given the Lou family hope was his substitute, Liao Wei!
He had flirted with Lou ruofu more than once. Otherwise, a family as cautious as the Lou family wouldnt havee to Jing Yichens ce to talk about marriage.
Jing Rui did not hide the matter and told Jing Xi everything in detail.
His younger sister was intelligent. She should know about many conflicts of interest, love and hate, so that she would not be easily fooled in the future.
Jing Xi almost jumped out of her seat when she heard that it was Liao Wei who had caused the trouble.This bastard, he actually used your face to seduce a woman! Big brother, Is He Dead?
Chapter 1215
Chapter 1215: Let me tell you a secret
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was calm.Hes not dead yet. Hes been hiding here and there. Hes been living a miserable life. However, someone told me that his face was disfigured, so itll probably be more difficult for him to hook up with women in the future.
You didnt let him live on purpose, did you? Jing Xi looked at him suspiciously.
Jing Rui looked at her with appreciation and said,Yes, hes still useful. When hes no longer useful, he naturally wont be able to live!
When the siblings got home, Jing Xi continued to learn etiquette while Jing Rui went to be intimate with Shuyin. Soon, they forgot about Liao Wei.
At this moment, a man who looked exactly like Jing Rui got off the ne and stood in the bustling airport. He let out a deep breath.A city, Im back! Everything in this ce is mine!
There was also a young woman with a slim figure and an outstanding appearance who got off the ne with him.
However, she was wearing arge pair of sunsses that covered most of her face. Only her fair and delicate skin, sharp chin, and straight nose could be seen, but her most anticipated eyes could not be seen.
Someone bowed respectfully beside the two of them and took their luggage. They were escorted all the way into an inconspicuous ck Volkswagen and disappeared into the endless stream of traffic.
The airport was full of people, but no one noticed the two young people in A city.
Jing Rui was able to manage Jingsheng enterprise and his life had returned to normal. He went to work in the day and picked Shuyin up from school after work in the afternoon.
The two of them would go home together, have dinner together, go out for a walk or go shopping together.
Shuyins life had never been so stable. She felt that being with Jing Rui was so blissful that it was unreal. They had been engaged for more than two months, and Jing Ruis thoughtfulness and care had been fully disyed in daily life.
They gradually got used to each other and relied on each other. If they didnt see each other one day, they would feel that something was missing in their hearts.
However, her calm was quickly broken.
Every day, she would receive a lot of small notes and many text messages. Most of them said that they wanted to pursue her, but a small portion of them kept saying the same thing: Youve been living in a conspiracy, and my secret can help you solve it.
Shuyin didnt take it seriously at first, but she gradually realized that something was wrong.
The other party had deliberately mixed this sentence into the confession note. The confession and this sentence were from the same person!
It was obvious that he was afraid that others would find out about this, so he deliberately confused them.
However, who would know?
Only one person would know that it was Jing Rui without even reading the notes.
Because his men would definitely report the matter of the note to him, but his men had only seen the confession note and had not seen the other one.
In ss that day, Shuyin didnt listen to the teachers exnation as usual. Instead, she read by herself. Suddenly, someone sat down in the empty seat next to her.
Shuyin never liked to get too close to others. The ssroom was very big and there were many empty seats, but this person just had to sit next to her. He was obviously trying to get close to her on purpose.
Even if she wasnt engaged, she wouldnt have any feelings for a man she didnt know.
Just as she was about to move to the side, her arm was suddenly grabbed by the man!
Im here to tell you a secret. You wont be able to hear it if you leave!
Shuyin immediately sneered. After ying tricks for so long, he was finally willing to show his face!
You should know that Im a virus researcher. If you dont want to die, youll have to be more direct!
Shuyin had the ability to protect herself. Other things aside, she could make the other party faint or even die in the shortest time possible, so she had nothing to fear.
Perhaps the other party knew how powerful she was, or perhaps he really didnt want to beat around the bush, so he said directly,Your father, Shucheng Shan, diedst year. How did someone die? this is his contact information. Also, he loves you very much and has never abandoned you. He was forced to hand you over to Lucas!
After the man finished speaking, he immediately stood up and left the ssroom, ignoring the professor on the podium who was looking at him with disdain.
Shu Yin, on the other hand, was shocked by his words. All the sounds in the outside world disappeared, except for the hoarse voice of the person just now.
He just diedst year?
Didnt he die a long time ago?
Forced to?
Shuyin had also told herself countless times that her parents didnt want her because they had no other choice. She had tried her best to hint to herself that her parents loved her and that everything was just a misunderstanding.
Only in this way could her hatred be reduced. Only in this way would she not feel abandoned by the whole world.
She had let go of the past and wanted to live a good life with Jing Rui.
Her life had only been peaceful and happy for two months, and someone was already so eager to destroy it?
Shuyin clenched the note in her hand tightly. The string of numbers on it pierced her heart.
She had always thought that Lucas was the one who killed her parents, but Lucas refused to admit it. Now, someone kept jumping out and telling her that there was something fishy about Shucheng Shans death.
She did not know what to do.
Should she let the past stay in the past, or should she dig up the past and find out the truth about how she was sent to the Research Institute and the truth of her parents death?
She had a strong premonition that as long as she flipped through it, everything would be broken!
She also had a strong intuition that her fathers death had another reason!
Most of the time, it was better to be an ignorant person, but the more you knew, the more pain you would feel.
However, the vast majority of people, especially smart people, would rather suffer than be kept in the dark. They would also try their best to know more.
In fact, Shuyin remembered riding on her fathers shoulders and ying happily when she was young. She also remembered that Shucheng mountain would often hold her gently and call her little princess with a smile.
He loved his mother, and he loved her.
Her mother was a beauty and a shining woman. She could always be seen on stage and on TV. Her love was far less pure than Shu Chengshan s. What she loved most was perhaps the Halo on her.
Theck of motherly love was almost all made up for by fatherly love.
Therefore, after Shuyin was personally sent to the Virus Research Institute by her father, she hated her mother a lot less. The person she hated the most was her father.
It was understandable that someone who didnt love her would push her into the fire pit, but why did someone who loved her want to bury her?
That kind of hatred was engraved in his bones and engraved in his heart!
Shuyin tore the piece of paper into pieces. She was afraid that if she looked at the number again, she would call it involuntarily!
However, the string of numbers had already been deeply engraved in her mind after she had taken a look at it.

The sky gradually darkened, and the ssroom was already empty. Only Shu Yin was left, sitting there all alone.
Jing Rui hade to pick her up on time every day, but she did not know why he did note today.
The phone number lingered in Shuyins mind for a long time.
Shuyin closed her eyes, then took out her phone and dialed the number.
On the other end of the phone, a melodious female voice sounded.Shuyin, Ive been waiting for you for a long time!
Who are you?
Oh, my dear, it doesnt matter who I am. My voice has been processed by the processor. Do you think its especially nice? If you like, I can give you a few voice-processing software. Itll be useful if you want to hide your identity in the future!
The other partys tone was familiar, as if he was reminiscing with an old friend. He wasnt in a hurry to tell Shuyin what she wanted to know.
Shuyin wasnt in the mood to chat at all. Her heart was heavy and ufortable. She always felt that she was very close to the truth, but she was also extremely afraid to touch thatyer of truth.
She remained silent and did not say anything else, only listening to the other partys rxed tone of ridicule.
Youre really quite pitiful. Your life is full of difficulties and youre destined to not have a good life! Hahaha, if youre not doing well, Ill definitely be very happy!
Wow, youre pretty calm. Since youve called me, it means that youre also suspicious of your fathers death. Why didnt you ask?
Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a heartless daughter. Your father loved you so much back then and worked so hard to earn money for you to spend. He didnt even care about his own life, but you didnt care whether he lived or died. Originally, you could have seen him after you came out of the Research Institute. Unfortunately, he was killed!
The other party rambled on and on and actually knew Shuyins past life like the back of his hand. He also knew a lot about Shucheng mountain. Shuyins expression changed.Who the hell are you!
Her fingers that were holding the phone were trembling slightly!
Only a few people knew about her childhood and Shucheng mountain, so why did this person know so much?
A creepyugh came from the other end of the phone. Shu Yin didnt know if it was the processor that made her voice so scary, or if this persons smile was like a ghost s. She wanted to hang up the phone, but a cold voice came from the other end.Little Yin, Im your mother!
Shuyins mind exploded, and she couldnt even hold her phone. With a pa, her phone fell to the ground.
Only her mother would call her little Yin. The rest of her close friends, including Shucheng Shan, all called her Yinyin!
Impossible! Shes already dead!
Shu Yin almost screamed out loud, and she was on the verge of a mental breakdown!
She wanted to ask how Shucheng Shan died, but she didnt ask if her mother was still alive. Why did she tell her?
The quality of the phone was very good. When it fell to the ground, other than a few more cracks on the screen, it did not affect the call function at all.
The other party had obviously heard Shuyins scream.
In the dark, dead-silent ssroom, the phone screen was lit up, and the melodious but eerie voice came from it.
Yin, why didnt you tell me that youre engaged? Mother has prepared a lot of dowry for you!
Xiao Yin, dont be afraid. Im a human, not a ghost. Hurry and call me. I miss you so much!
Shuyin listened to her pretense, and the hatred in her heart gushed out. In the past, her good mother had always had such a disgusting face! He said it so nicely, but he never really showed her any concern!
No matter who this person was, even if she was her own mother, she was not a good person!
Her hands stopped shaking and she stopped screaming. She picked up the phone from the ground and said coldly,Youd better be a ghost. Otherwise, I have plenty of ways to turn you into a ghost!
Yo, youre really ruthless. You even want to kill your own mother! You white-eyed Wolf, I gave birth to you and raised you, and this is how you repay me?
Shuyin couldnt confirm the other partys identity. She had always thought that her parents had died a long time ago, but now someone told her that Shu Chengshan had only diedst year, and her mother was still alive!
She could not believe it!
Furthermore, the other party had used a voice changer to mask his voice, which was a problem in itself!
So youre the one whos been acting all mysterious these days. Since you know that Im engaged, get lost. If youe and ruin my life again, you wont even be a ghost anymore!
Hahaha!
A pleasant chuckle came from the phone. It seemed that the other party was in an extremely good mood and did not show any signs of anger.
Its not up to you when I be a ghost. I can definitely live for many more years! Your good father, on the other hand, turned into a ghost and went to hellst year! Aiya, he died so miserably, he was beaten to death by someone!
Do you want to know where his body is? I can tell you!
However, I dont think he wants to see you. He must be very angry at you for being so unfilial!
Shuyin didnt understand the deeper meaning behind the other party calling her unfilial. She didnt feel that there was anything unfilial about it. Her parents had abandoned her, so she just treated her as if she didnt have parents.
Their family didnt send their children away because they were too poor to feed and couldnt afford to raise them.
Their familys conditions were good, and it would not be a problem to support ten of her!
Shuyin replied coldly,I dont want to see him either! I dont know where you found out about my childhood, but that doesnt prove anything. The more you say, the more I hate them. Arent you trying to sow discord between me and them so that I can take revenge for them? What a joke! Im going to thank the person who killed them!
Hahaha, really?
The voice on the phone gradually became shrill, and she almost screamed,Fine, Ill tell you. Your fathers murderer is sleeping next to you every day! The person youre engaged to has your fathers blood on his hands!
Impossible!
Shuyin retorted subconsciously!
She didnt believe it!
This person was definitely lying. She was deliberately misleading her!
How could Jing Rui kill Shucheng Shan? they had never met before!
If he killed Shu Chengshan, how could he marry her!
Shuyins mind was in a mess, and she couldnt sort out her thoughts at all.
In this world, the person she trusted the most was Jing Rui, and the only person she could trust was him!
She did not know who else she could trust in this world if she doubted Jing Rui.
Youre talking nonsense! I dont even know who you are, so why should I believe you! If you have the ability, then show me the evidence!
Hehe, if you dont believe me, you can go back and ask him! Why dont you think about why hes so good to you? Because he killed your father, and he felt guilty! Hes atoning for his sins!
Chapter 1217
Chapter 1217: I thought you didnt want me anymore
Trantor: 549690339
She had received too much information today, and Shuyin couldnt digest it all in a short time.
However, there was a voice in her heart that told her that it was not like that! Jing Rui was nice to her, not because he felt guilty or because he wanted to atone for his sins.
The scenes of her time with Jing Rui appeared in Shuyins mind.
She used to wonder why Jing Rui had protected her. Their cooperation had ended, but he still appeared by her side so often.
At the beginning, he clearly did not fall in love with her.
But now, it seemed to make sense.
But Shuyin still had a lot of doubts in her heart. She did not believe the one-sided story of the person on the phone. Even if it was her biological mother, she would not believe it easily. But her trust in Jing Rui had also been shaken.
She kept adjusting her breathing and forced herself to calm down.
Youve been giving me all kinds of hints, so that I can contact you and tell you that Jing Rui killed Shucheng mountain!
Shuyins lips curled into a sneer. She called Shu Chengshan by his name and didnt even call him father.
You want me to leave Jing Rui? Oh, no, no, you want me to kill Jing Rui to avenge Shucheng mountain! What a good n. Youre so sure that Ill do things ording to your wishes?
A womans giggles came from the phone. It was clear and charming, like a little girl who didnt know much about the world, but also like a charming mature woman. The two feelings intertwined, and Shu Yin felt extremely disgusted!
This voice was almost exactly the same as Shuyins mothersughter!
She used to smile like this too. Every time she smiled like this, she would always receive the gentle and doting gaze of Shucheng Shan, as if she was a treasure.
However, she used to only smile at Shucheng Shan and rarely smiled at her daughter.
Herughter aroused Shu Yins disgust, and even her hatred for Shu Chengshan increased.
Yourughter is very nice, but its more suitable for seducing men. It has no effect on me!
Xiao Yin, my daughter, youve really disappointed me!
A faint sigh came from the phone.I dont me you for not being close to me since we were young, but your father doted on you so much. How could you marry an enemy who killed your father? Be good and leave Jing Rui. Dont make any more mistakes!
The enemy who killed my father? Hahaha!
Shuyin suddenlyughed a little shrilly. Her angry voice echoed in the empty lecture hall,If Shucheng Shan didnt die, I would have killed him myself! I would like to thank Jing Rui. He did it, so I dont have to do it myself. Ill let him have a taste of ten thousand poisons!
He had no choice but to send you to prison that year. He didnt know that Lucas was a pervert! Not to mention, he was being hunted down at that time and had nowhere to run. He was afraid that you would be killed, so he could only send you to the Virus Research Institute, where even killers couldnt enter!
Oh, really? Is it for my own good? You want Lucas to use me as a test subject, inject me with all sorts of drugs, and then cultivate all sorts of viruses in my body?
Shuyin smiled gently. She never cried easily, but her tears fell unconsciously.
My biological parents are so good to me! When I was eight or nine years old, I was beaten up by Lucas until my internal organs started bleeding. When my flesh was corroded by the virus and my bones were exposed, I wanted to dig up my grave! Every day, when I opened my eyes and felt like I was about to die from the pain, I would think, why am I still not dead? Why am I still alive?
I naively thought that all of you were dead and I was the only one left alive. Sometimes, I also felt that perhaps it was because my parents loved me that they died, leaving me alive. Only now do I know that none of you are dead! It turns out that Im the only one living a life worse than death!
Now that youve seen that Im living well, youve appeared again, making me feel pain and me myself. You even incited me to kill my fianc. You wont be able to find a second one in the world!
Shuyins tone was filled with obvious disdain. Even if this person was her mother, she would never acknowledge her!
How could such a woman who didnt care about her life and death be worthy of being a mother?
And her so-called secret was full of loopholes.
She had met Jing Rui three years ago and became his subordinate. He was in charge of her safety.
But this man said that Shucheng Shan was killed by Jing Ruist year.
ording to Jing Ruis meticulous thinking and straightforward personality, he could not protect her and kill her father at the same time.
If he had wanted to kill Shu Chengshan, he wouldnt have chosen her to take care of Jing Zhi three years ago.
At least it proved that Jing Rui had protected her three years ago.
After thinking this through, Shuyins heart instantly rxed a lot.
The woman on the phone was still praising Shu Chengshan, saying how good he was to his daughter and how much he med himself.
Shuyin listened quietly, but she didnt believe a single word.
The pain she had suffered in the past was not something that could be dispelled by a word of self-me.
She had hated him for so many years. How could she suddenly stop?
More and more people came to the ssroom to study. Shuyin hung up the phone and walked out with her bag.
Under the dark night sky, the streetmps stretched into the distance one after another, as if they were guiding Shuyin home, allowing her to move forward slowly.
A light rain started to fall from the sky, and under the umbre, there were romantic and sweet couples.
Usually, Jing Rui would have taken her home by this time, but why didnt hee today?
What happened?
Shuyins heart was as gloomy as the weather, so stuffy that she couldnt breathe.
She stood under the pine tree where she usually waited for Jing Rui. She did not hold an umbre and let the raindrops fall on her body and face through the gaps between the pine leaves.
The rain got heavier and there were fewer and fewer people on campus. In the end, only Shuyin was left standing in the rain.
She would rather be in the rain than leave. She wanted to wait for him toe.
After an unknown period of time, a ck sports car cut through the night sky and sped over. Then, it suddenly stopped in front of Shuyin.
Jing Ruis tall figure got out of the car and walked into the rain.
Yinyin, Im sorry Imte! If you cant wait for me, why dont you go home first?
His voice was filled with anxiety and heartache.
He hade in such a hurry that he didnt bring an umbre.
He hurriedly took off his suit jacket and put it on Shuyin.Lets go home!
His thin white shirt was instantly drenched by the rain, but he didnt care at all. He only used his expensive suit to block the rain for her.
The tears that Shuyin had been holding back came to her eyes. She threw herself into Jing Ruis arms and cried,Why did you onlye now? I thought you didnt want me anymore!
Chapter 1218
Chapter 1218: I love you, no doubt about it
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin was a girl who did not shed tears easily. Jing Rui had only seen her cry once since they met, and it was when he proposed to her.
Thest time she cried, it was obviously tears of happiness. It couldnt be considered as crying in the true sense of the word. But this time, she was really crying!
Jing Rui panicked and immediately hugged Shuyin.Yinyin, what happened? Dont cry, dont cry, how can I not want you! I want you to never give up!
His voice was as gentle and loving as ever, and his embrace was as warm and firm as ever. Shuyin hugged him tightly and cried uncontrobly.
If he had lied to her, what should she do?
If he had wove a bubble-like dream for her, should she pop the bubble and wake up from the dream?
Shuyin was very afraid. She was afraid that she would lose her only faith!
She was shaking, and Jing Rui soon felt it.
He hugged Shuyin and kissed her in the rain, giving her the warmest response.
I was tied up by something today and couldnt get away. I didnt forget to pick you up! Lets go home. Ill tell you when we get home. The rain is getting heavier and youre all wet. Youll catch a cold if you keep this up. Yinyin, be good!
But Shuyins tears still couldnt stop.
She had never cried like this in her entire life. Even when she was abandoned by her parents and sent to the Virus Research Institute, she had never cried as hard as she was now.
She didnt care if she caught a cold. She was only afraid that the happiness she had experienced in the past two months was just a dream!
She did not want to be separated from Jing Rui for even a second. She was afraid that if she let go, he would tell her that he had killed her father.
How could she be his enemy? She was prepared to spend the rest of her life with him, to be husband and wife forever!
Jing Rui did not know what had happened, but he had a bad feeling when he saw Shuyin crying.
Shuyin had always been strong. As Lucas had said, she was a girl without any weaknesses. Jing Rui could guess what could have made her cry like this.
But how could this be?
She shouldnt have known, and it was impossible for her to know!
There were no more than five people who knew about that incident, but none of them had told her the reason!
Shuyins tears were mixed with the rain, and it was hard to tell which was the tears and which was the rain.
She cried so hard that Jing Rui felt his heart was torn apart by her.
He wrapped Shuyin up in his suit, carried her by the waist, and put her in the car. Then, he got into the car himself, took off Shuyins wet clothes, and wrapped her with a thin nket.
His body waspletely drenched, and his short hair was dripping with water. However, he didnt care about himself at all. He took out a box of tissues and let Shuyins hair absorb water so that she wouldnt catch a cold.
After wiping for a while, he kissed Shu Yin and called her name non-stop, asking her not to cry.
Shuyin looked at how flustered he was and how he tried his best to coax her. He didnt care about himself at all. He only had her in his heart and eyes, and she cried even harder.
She buried her face in his wet chest and cried her heart out.
Why didnt you pick me up today? Do you not like me anymore? Quickly say that you love me!
In the past, Shuyin had never been so willful. Jing Rui did note to pick Shuyin up every day in the past two months. There were times when he was too busy to leave and had Shuyin take a taxi home.
She used to understand him very well and would never doubt his love as she did today.
Jing Rui knew that it was not because he had note to take her home, but because of something else.
He didnt even hesitate for a second. He hugged Shuyin and whispered in her ear,I love you! I love you very much, I love you very much, Ill always love you, Yinyin!
Jing Rui had never said the words I love you since they had met. He was not good at sweet nothings, and most of the time, he put them into action.
However, at this moment, a single I love you was worth more than a thousand words.
Yinyin, dont doubt my love for you. I love you without a doubt! Dont you feel it yourself? Dont You Know How Much I Love You?
Jing Ruis voice was low, but it sounded deep and serious.
Shu Yin hugged Jing Ruis waist and did not say anything.
Her tears were still flowing, but the dull pain in her heart had eased a lot.
Yes, she could feel that he loved her!
His love and indulgence could be seen in many small details in life.
She liked to eat cold drinks, and the refrigerator at home was filled with all kinds of cold drinks, but he would watch her and not let her eat too much.
He knew her period better than she did, and he didnt allow her to touch cold water during her period. In the past, who cared about her? When the pain during her period was unbearable, she gritted her teeth and endured it. Now that she had been spoiled by him, she would lie down and not like to move when it was her period.
Not only did he collect all kinds of viruses from all over the world for her to study, he even generously gave her the virus in his body.
She thought of how Jing Rui loved her and the panic of being deceived was finally not so serious.
Lets go home!Shuyin said in a hoarse voice.
Hearing that Shuyin was willing to go home, Jing Rui immediately said,Alright!
The sports car sped in the rainy night, but Jing Rui did not let go of Shuyins hand. He held on to her tightly, as if she would disappear at any moment.
In the past, Shuyin would feel warm andfortable when she returned home. Even when Jing Rui was not at home, she still felt that this was the best Harbor.
But today, she only felt that the whole house was cold.
She was carried into the bedroom by Jing Rui. Seeing that he was about to leave, Shuyin immediately hugged him and pressed her face against his chest. Dont go!
Youre all wet. Ill get you some clean underwear to change into.
No need, dont go, just stay by my side!
Jing Rui did not force her. He quickly took off his clothes,y on the bed and took Shuyin into his arms.
Alright, I wont leave.
His body was a little wet and a little cold, but Shuyin didnt care at all. She only felt more at ease when shey in his arms. Only then would she feel that she wasnt living in a scam and that she was always loved.
She didnt care that Jing Rui had taken off her underwear.
She knew that Jing Rui did not want to do it now, but was afraid that she would catch a cold.
Yinyin, tell me, what happened today? Tell me the truth, dont hide it. Im very ufortable with you like this. Baby, I dont want to see you cry.
The room fell into a long silence after Jing Rui finished his words.
Jing Ruis heart sank.
After a long while, Shuyin said softly,its nothing. I just missed you. I thought you didnt want me anymore. Thats why I didnte to pick you up.
Chapter 1219
Chapter 1219: It was unreasonable
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui knew that Shuyin was not telling the truth. He sighed and kissed Shuyins forehead.
If you dont want to say it, I wont force you. But you have to know that I cant not want you. You should know my personality best. I will fight for what I want with all my might. If I dont want it, I wont take it no matter who tries to push it to me.
The reason why Imte to pick you up today is that I was stopped by something. I didnt want to tell you about this in case you misunderstand, but I have to say it now. But youre not allowed to think otherwise.
Shuyin had calmed down by now. Although she was a little depressed, she felt that she was still in love with Jing Rui as long as she didnt break the thin paper window.
When shey in her arms, she would feel that the whole world was peaceful.
Before she met Jing Rui, she had been eager to know if he had killed Shucheng mountain and why he had note to pick her up today.
But now, she didnt want to know the reason.
She didnt know what would happen if she asked, so she would pretend that she didnt know anything and live with Jing Rui as before.
You dont have to say anymore. No matter what the reason is, its enough that I know you didnt deliberately not pick me up from school. I was supposed to take a taxi home today. You dont have to pick me up when youre busy with work in the future, Ill go home by myself.
Shuyin had always been in the Research Institute and didnt have the chance to learn how to drive. Moreover, she had just turned 18 this year and didnt have a drivers license yet, so she couldnt drive by herself.
She was not a willful girl who would only go home when Jing Rui came to pick her up.
It was just that todays situation was too special, so she couldnt control her emotions.
But Jing Rui felt that Shuyin was controlling her emotions too well.
She was magnanimous and did not like to be calctive. Most of the time, she would not act coquettishly and willfully with him. She was extremely rational and did not act like an 18-year-old girl at all.
Jing Rui took Shuyins hand and put it on his chest. He said seriously,Yinyin, were engaged, and well get married in the future. Well be husband and wife for life. You have the right to ask for everything about me and you have the right to ask for everything. Bringing you home is the mostmon and trivial thing. You should be angry that I didnte to pick you up. You can throw a tantrum.
Shuyin didnt know if she should lose her temper. In the past, no one pampered her, let alone losing her temper. She was careful and cautious, and her tolerance was full of danger. She could die at any time because of her impulsiveness. Now, she had be an expert at managing her emotions.
She had almost forgotten what it meant to lose her temper. Today was the first time she had lost control of her emotions.
I went to deal with the Lou familys matters today.
Although Shuyin said that she didnt need to exin, Jing Rui still felt that it was better to do so, or else Shuyin would feel ufortable.
When I was in North America, my substitute did a lot of things for me in A city. He provoked the youngdy of the Lou family, Lou ruofu. I dont know the details, but Lou ruofu came to me today and asked me to take responsibility.
In fact, Jing Rui was being vague. Lou ruofus original words were that he had to marry her since she was already his woman, and that was what he had promised.
Jing Rui knew about the affair between Liao Wei and Lou ruofu. He did not know if Liao Wei had agreed to marry Lou ruofu in the name of the Jing family, but he was sure that Liao Wei had never touched Lou ruofu.
Liao Wei had not only flirted with Lou ruofu, but also with female stars in the entertainmentpanies under Jingsheng enterprise.
However, none of them had any physical rtionship.
Because this was the bottom line of Jing Rui and family Jing, and Jing Yichen would not allow Liao Wei to ruin Jing Ruis reputation.
If Liao Wei had sex with another woman, no one would know that he was just a substitute, and they would only scold Jing Rui when they brought up the old scores.
So Jing Yichen had sent people to keep a close eye on Liao Wei. If he had any intimate activities with a woman, he would stop him and punish Liao Wei severely.
Shuyin didnt understand theplexity and obscurity of the situation, but she understood what Lou ruofu meant. She had already lost her virginity to the substitute.
Her attention was drawn away by this matter, and she couldnt help but ask,Then what should we do? Hadnt the Lou family always supported the Jing family? Why did he suddenly ask you to take responsibility?
This was also what Jing Rui had doubts about.
The Lou family followed the Jing familys lead and would never go against them. He was already engaged to Shuyin and the Lou family knew about it. Why would they ask him to marry Lou ruofu?
This didnt make sense, and it didnt meet the Lou familys interests.
How could Jing Rui be controlled by a family like the Lou family when he wanted to marry someone?
Furthermore, Lou ruofu had obviously lied. Before Liao Wei left city A, he had never had sex with any woman!
Liao Wei was arrogant and possessive, but he wasnt a brainless person. He couldnt promise Lou ruofu that he would marry her in the future.
For one thing, the Lou family was not one of the most influential families, so they were not a match for the Jing family. For another, he was not the real heir of the Jing family, so he had no say in who he should marry. Giving such an empty promise would only bring more trouble to Liao Wei.
Lou ruofu was very emotional today and cried very hard. The head of the Lou family, Lou mingzhen, also spoke up for his daughter. They were very smart. They didnt threaten her but yed the emotional card.
Thinking of Lou ruofus crying face today, Jing Rui finally understood why the Lou family had chosen Lou ruofu for the marriage instead of the elegant and gentle Lou ruofei.
Lou ruofus beauty was stunning!
Even when she was crying, she was so beautiful that it was intoxicating. Her beauty was so mboyant, and there was a charm in her bones. Just listening to her voice could make ones bones go soft.
If Lou ruofeis every move revealed self-restraint and magnanimity, Lou ruofus every move seemed to be deliberately adjusted to show her most seductive side.
The temperaments of the two cousins werepletely opposite.
Jing Rui thought that it was normal for Liao Wei to like Lou ruofu. He could resist touching her only because he was too scared after being beaten up by Jing Yichen.
The father and daughter have been crying the whole day. They even brought four other smaller families, five families, to me, asking for an exnation.
Jing Ruis expression turned cold when he thought of what had happened today.
The five families had been raised by the Jing family, but they had joined forces to force him to marry Lou ruofu.
Chapter 1220
Chapter 1220: Will I get pregnant?
Trantor: 549690339
Although they were tactful and kept expressing their loyalty to him, telling him how much they had contributed to family Jing and asking him to give Lou ruofu a status, they could not hide the fact that they were threatening him.
Anyone who could threaten Jing Rui had died long ago.
If it wasnt for the fact that so many families hade today, he wouldnt have dyed it for so long. He wouldve definitely chased them away and gone to pick up Shuyin.
He regretted it very much now. He should have driven them away at that time. No matter how many families they were, family Jings business would be affected by the loss of these five families, but it was not irreparable.
He suspected that these five families were deliberately stalling him.
These things are disputes between families, you dont need to worry about them.
Jing Rui kissed the back of Shuyins hand and said,Ill get rid of them as soon as possible, but dont believe anything the Lou family and Lou ruofu say. I went to North America when I was twelve and only returned to city Ast year. I have nothing to do with Lou ruofu. Dont be fooled by her.
Jing Rui felt lucky that he had known Shuyin for a long time. Otherwise, no other girl would believe that he had a substitute.
If a woman came to his door, it would probably be difficult to exin.
The indifference in Jing Ruis words towards Lou ruofu was very obvious. Shuyin knew that he probably didnt have a good impression of this woman.
Thest time he saw Lou ruofei, although he was also cold, his tone and attitude were not like this.
There were too many things in Shuyins heart, so she didnt take Lou ruofus sudden appearance seriously. She believed Jing Rui when he said that he had nothing to do with Lou ruofu.
Shuyin didnt sleep well the entire night.
In her dreams, she would always dream of her father and mother. She dreamed that they were both dead. She dreamed of the blood on the ground. She dreamed that she had returned to her childhood. She dreamed of her mothers pampering and happy childhood.
When she was young, she actually lived like a princess. No one bullied her and she almost had everything she wanted.
The time before she was eight years old was the most carefree time of her life.
When she woke up the next day, the corners of her eyes were cold. Shu Yin wiped them and realized that she had unknowingly cried until her pillow was wet.
She smiled bitterly, feeling as if she was about to run out of tears for the rest of her life in these two days.
She had thought that her feelings for her parents had been worn out. She did not expect that she still yearned for fatherly and motherly love.
She still needed some time to adjust her mentality. She had once vowed that she would never acknowledge her biological parents again in this life, and their life and death had nothing to do with her.
She couldnt be swayed by a random phone call.
The past was in the past.
She did not believe that Jing Rui married her because he felt guilty for killing Shucheng Shan, nor did she believe that his love was a form of repentance.
With his pride, he didnt need to do this at all.
A top professional killer would repent after killing someone?
If that was the case, Jing Rui would have to live in the church for the rest of his life.
Shuyin was still thinking when a hand reached over and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.
Yesterday, Jing Rui only suspected that Shuyin knew something. But today, he was almost sure that Shuyin knew.
He wanted to tell Shuyin everything, but he didnt dare to say it so easily.
Was she supposed to say, Shuyin, I really did kill your father? Or did hemit suicide because I forced him to save your life?
Either way, it would destroy the barely maintained bnce between him and Shuyin.
If she didnt want to ask, she probably didnt dare to!
She was afraid that if she got an affirmative answer from him, she wouldnt know how to face him in the future.
Jing Ruis heart ached. He kissed Shuyins eyes gently.Yinyin, dont cry. I love you! Touch my heart, dont doubt me, and dont leave me, I cant stand it.
Shuyin cried and kissed him back. Her kiss was messy, but it conveyed the deepest love and dependence to Jing Rui.
Jing Rui kissed her on the lips and demanded her like a storm.
His hand moved down her body, from her delicate corbones to her soft peaks, and then to her slender waist.
He turned over and pressed Shuyin under him. Looking at her blushing face, his breathing was rapid and he couldnt bear the heat.
Shuyin liked being so intimate with Jing Rui. At times like this, they seemed to be one and the same, melding into each others bodies and forgetting everything else. Only their souls and bodies were in sync.
There seemed to be an electric current flowing through her body, causing her to feel numb and tremble.
She hugged Jing Ruis neck and bit his shoulder, chin, and lips when she was at her most unbearable.
Jing Rui was different from his usual patience and gentleness. His movements were fierce and overbearing, and Shuyin almost couldnt bear it.
Only today did she realize how hard it was for him to hold it in, how much he desired her!
In the two months of their engagement, they did not get together many times, because Shuyin would cry out in pain every time and her back and legs would be sore the next day, and Jing Rui could not bear to touch her for a few days.
Moreover, she had her period for a few days every month, and Jing Rui had never enjoyed it.
Today, he was as impatient as he was when they first got together, as if he was afraid that she would disappear. Again and again, he did it without knowing how to be satisfied.
His actions were too violent. Shu Yin felt a little pain, but more than that, she felt endless joy.
She was even more unbothered than Jing Rui. She responded to him passionately, pestered him and called his name in a coquettish voice.
It was as if the end of the world was tomorrow, and they were about to die forever.
Shuyins physical strength was not as good as Jing Rui s. After being entangled with him again and again, she fell asleep in Jing Ruis arms.
Jing Rui looked at her beautiful face and wet hair and kissed her tenderly. He got out of bed and wiped her with a towel soaked in hot water.
After cleaning Shuyin up, Jing Rui went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Perhaps she was too tired, but Shuyin didnt dream anymore. She finally had a good nights sleep. When she woke up again, it was already evening.
The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Jing Rui standing beside her. Before she could look away, she saw the deep affection in his eyes.
Shuyin snuggledzily in Jing Ruis arms and said in a low voice,Im in pain everywhere!
She sounded a little spoiled and a little unhappy, but Jing Rui smiled brightly.
His hand lingered on her smooth and delicate back, and he said in a rxed and happy tone,Yinyin, youre too passionate. You cant me me!
Shuyin blinked her eyes and suddenly said with some anticipation,Will we get pregnant if we do this?
Jing Rui looked at her bright eyes andughed even more happily.You want a child?
Chapter 1221
Chapter 1221: Ill help you contact the doctor in charge
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui knew that Shuyin liked children, but it was still a question whether his body could make Shuyin pregnant.
Youre still a child. If you raise another one now, Ill have to raise two children. Well talk about it in a few years.
Shuyin was only 18. It was too early for her to have a child.
Shuyin smiled. She was just asking. After all, they didnt take any safety measures. What if something happened?
She was still in school!
Can you give birth?
Shuyin knew that Jing Zhi was infertile. During his time at the Research Institute, he had been thoroughly researched by the crazy researchers. All the data of his body was very clear, and Shuyin could recite it backwards.
She did not know if Jing Rui could give birth.
It was embarrassing to be questioned about his fertility by his own woman. Jing Rui pinched Shuyins chin and said in a low voice,If you want to know, we can try it every day, as long as you dont cry out that youre tired or in pain!
Shuyins face immediately turned red. If he came every day, she definitely wouldnt be able to take it.
She had been too crazy before, and now her body was aching badly. She wouldnt dare to do it again in the future.
She leaned against Jing Ruis chest and felt his heartbeat, so that she could suppress the uneasiness in her heart.
The setting sun shrouded the entirend, and the vi seemed to be covered with ayer of colorful light. It was gorgeous and dazzling, making people involuntarily have an infinite yearning for a beautiful tomorrow.
Whether or not she would have children in the future, Shuyin did not want to leave Jing Rui. Without him, Shuyin felt that her life would probably go back to how it used to be, dark and gloomy.
But Jing Rui quickly put away his teasing expression and said seriously,I dont know if hes still alive. Ill have to trouble you to help me analyze this.
Shuyin specialized in viruses and gics, so she didnt need anyone else to do her research.
Jing Rui did not want anyone else to know about such a private matter.
The next morning, Shuyin got up as usual, carried her bag, and was sent to school by Jing Rui.
The sses in school were actually very easy for Shuyin. She spent most of her time multitasking, listening to the teachers exnations while reading more profound books. She had learned quite a lot in the past two months.
Shuyin was beautiful, and boys in school often tried to hit on her. Today, after ss, a tall and handsome man came to talk to her.
Shuyin, can I have a chat with you?
Shuyin didnt even lift her head. Her eyes were still fixed on her book, and she only said indifferently,I can t,
The mans mouth twitched into a fake smile and said,Im Lou ruofus brother. Cant I?
Shu Yin suddenly looked up and saw a handsome man with an arrogant expression.
Perhaps it was because he wasing to school, but he was dressed in dark blue sportswear, which made him look very energetic, so much so that Shuyin couldnt tell his age from his appearance.
He was handsome, straight, and bright. He should have been a man that girls liked very much, but Shuyin felt an inexplicable disgust for him.
It was rare for her to hate someone the first time they met, but she couldnt suppress the feeling of disgust.
She stared at the person coldly and repeated,We can t!
I think that you definitely dont want a second person to hear what were going to say next. There are so many of your ssmates here, and they dont know your identity. Im sure everyone will be interested in the fact that you will be abandoned by Jing Rui soon.
Shuyin took out her phone and pressed the record button without a change in her expression. Then, she stood up and walked out.
The other party had no bottom line, and they came with such a menacing momentum. It was indeed not suitable to start a fight in the ssroom.
It wouldnt be good if she threw the virus at Lou ruofus brother and innocent people were affected.
The two of them walked out of the ssroom and stood by a quiet patch of grass. Shuyin looked left and right, and when she saw that there was no one around, she said,What do you want? I dont know Lou ruofu, and I dont know you. If the Lou family is in trouble, you should ask Jing Rui to solve it. I cant do anything about it.
Oh, you may not know this, but Jing Rui asked me toe here today.
Shuyin nced at him and didnt say anything.
She could not find a valid reason to lie. Jing Rui rejected all men who had contact with her. How could he let hime to her?
And the man who had an ambiguous rtionship with Lou ruofu was not Jing Rui.
Let me introduce myself first. Im Lou ruofus brother and the future heir of the Lou family. My name is Lou Zirong, and our Lou family is in city A ...
Lou Zirong, can you just say it?
Shuyin almost couldnt help but spray the virus on his face!
She had been in a bad mood for the past two days, and now that someone hade to find trouble with her, she would be letting herself down if she didnt torment him!
Lou Zirong was interrupted before he could finish his sentence. His expression immediately turned cold.
Although the Lou family wasnt one of the top families in A city, they had the support of the Jing family and the development of the Lou family was smooth. No one dared to go against them.
As the sessor of the Lou family, Lou Zirong had a lot of social activities. He was a man with deep schemes and courage. The only w he had was that he was a little snobbish.
He was born into a big family and lived a life of luxury. He could call the wind and call the rain. He usually came into contact with people of the upper ss. Today, he felt that he had given Shuyin a lot of face, but he didnt expect to be rebuked time and time again.
He felt ufortable, but he suppressed it. Other than the smile on his face disappearing, there didnt seem to be anything wrong.
Lou Zirongs eyes shed with contempt as he said,Leave Jing Rui on your own. He has agreed to marry my sister, so your engagement is not valid.
In his eyes, a fatherless and motherless Shuyin had no value. How could she be worthy of the Lou familys weight?
She couldnt bring any benefit to family Jing, nor could she help family Jing win over many small families and forces. She couldntpete with family Lou.
Shuyin looked at Lou Zirongs calm and natural face and suddenly felt likeughing.
Where did he get the confidence to say that the engagement was not counted?
How could he say with such confidence that Jing Rui had agreed to marry Lou ruofu?
If she had not been close to Jing Rui and trusted him enough, she would have been deceived by Lou Zirong.
He should be the one to tell me whether my engagement with Jing Rui counts or not, not a stranger.
Shuyin scanned Lou Zirong from head to toe with a mocking gaze.Im sorry, but your identity is very suspicious. I dont think the heir of the Lou family is so brainless. May I know your name? Which mental hospital was he receiving treatment at? Do you need me to contact the doctor in charge for you?
Chapter 1222
Chapter 1222: Itchy to the bones
Trantor: 549690339
A mental hospital?
Lou Zirong had never been ridiculed like this in his life!
When it came to talking, most people were no match for Shuyin. Every time Jing Zhi talked to her, he would be choked to death by her, let alone Lou Zirong, who was self-aware of his status.
I came to see you in person today so that you can leave with dignity. Otherwise, you will be driven away by family Jing and you will be in a very embarrassing situation. Our Lou family always leaves a way out and never forces people to a dead end. Im doing this for your own good, so dont be ungrateful!
Lou Zirongs eyes were filled with ruthlessness, but what was rare was that his tone didnt change much. He was actually able to control his anger even when Shuyin called him mentally ill.
Shuyin was starting to admire him.
She reached out her hand and patted Lou Zirongs handsome face abruptly. She smiled and said,Your Lou family really has a conscience! Thest time I saw Lou ruofei, I praised her for having a good daughter. Now that Ive seen you, I know that we dont have the same parents. Even if we both have the same surname, the difference is still quite big!
Lou Zirong didnt expect Shuyin to p his face. He had always been proud and looked down on ordinary women. He was 26 years old this year and had only had one girlfriend before.
He was stunned for a moment. It was only after Shuyin had turned around and left that he realized that he had been teased by a young girl!
However, he quickly realized that this was not a tease, but a provocation!
The cheek that Shuyin had pped gradually swelled up. It was both painful and itchy. He wanted to scratch it, but he didnt dare to. If he didnt scratch it, the itch would drill into his heart. It was so itchy that he couldnt scratch it lightly, but the pain would drill into his heart!
[What the hell is going on?]
It was just a light Pat from Shuyin just now. She didnt use any strength at all, and it felt like she was just touching his face!
This woman was poisonous!
After a while, Lou Zirongs forehead was full of sweat. The back of his well-made light coffee-colored id shirt was wet!
Lou Zirongs face was so painful and itchy that he didnt even have the energy to drive. He had to leave his car on campus for the time being and take a taxi to family MUs Hospital.
By the time he reached the hospital, his face was already swollen like a pigs head!
When mu Sen saw him, he did not recognize him at all. When he understood Lou Zirongs identity and the reason for his swollen face, mu Sen hesitated.
He didnt know if he should save Lou Zirong and offend Shuyin, which would then offend Jing Rui.
Others might not know how good Jing Rui was to Shuyin, but he knew it best. He didnt even care about his own sister to keep Shuyinpany, which showed how much Shuyin was worth.
However, Lou Zirong was Lou ruofeis cousin. He would asionally send Lou ruofei to the hospital for acupuncture treatment. Although they were not biological siblings, they seemed to be very close. Lou ruofei had a good rtionship with her uncles three children, but her rtionship with her own brother was very ordinary.
If Lou ruofei found out that he didnt save Lou Zirong, she would definitely me him.
Mu Sen weighed his options and decided to save Lou Zirong first.
The Lou family was a subsidiary family of the Jing family, and the rtionship between the two families had always been very good. It was possible that Shuyin had identally tricked Lou Zirong.
Lou Zirong only said that he met Shuyin and his face was swollen after she touched him. He did not tell her the whole story. He was arrogant in front of Shuyin, but he was gentle and polite in front of mu Sen. He did not say a word about his intention to marry his sister to Jing Rui.
Therefore, mu Sen did not know what was going on. Seeing Lou Zirong in pain, he quickly started to treat his face.
However, even after mu Sen had been busy for half an hour, Lou Zirongs face had only gone down. The pain and itchiness had not reduced at all. Instead, it made him want to scratch his heart and lungs even more!
Mu Sen finally sighed.Brother Zijin, I cant do anything about your face. My knowledge in the field of viruses is far from Shuyin s. She is the only one in the entire A city who can cure your virus.
He now knew that Lou Zirong had probably offended Shuyin. He had never seen such a powerful virus before, so Shuyin wouldnt just throw it away.
She was a very professional person and would never use viruses indiscriminately. She would store all viruses carefully so as not to hurt the innocent.
He had originally thought that he had made a lot of progress in his Virus Research recently, but it seemed that he was still far from Shuyins level.
Shuyin had been exposed to viruses since she was very young. If she didnt study the virus with all her might, she would be poisoned to death by the virus. Her life was in danger, so she naturally put in 120% of her effort.
On the other hand, mu Sen only took this as an interest to study and study. In essence, there was a huge gap between him and Shuyin.
Shuyins starting line was ten years earlier than mu Sen s, and in these ten years, she had been running at the expense of her life, while mu Sen had been strolling leisurely. It would be strange if he could cure Shuyins virus.
Lou Zirongs originally handsome face had be twisted and hideous because of the heart-piercing itch. He said angrily,Impossible! Isnt your Mu family the most powerful? Why couldnt he even cure the tricks of a little girl like her? Mu Sen, please help me, Im going crazy! Its too itchy!
As he spoke, he couldnt help but scratch his face. However, the moment he touched his face, the pain spread along his face. The pain and itch seemed to have seeped into his bones, making him feel despair!
Mu Sen shook his head and said,although the MU familys medical skills are brilliant, there are always higher mountains in this world. Our Mu familys treatment of some diseases is unique, but in the study of viruses, Shuyin is already at the level of a master. She is extremely talented and willing to work hard. Those teachers who taught her were all genius Masters. Its not an exaggeration to say that some of her research results can even win the Nobel Prize in Medicine.
Lou Zirong was in disbelief!
That slim girl with no background was so powerful?
Why did his investigation show that she was just an ordinary poor student?
Didnt she never pay attention in ss? Wasnt she alwayste, leaving early, or even skipping sses?
A person like this won the Nobel Prize?
Nonsense!
Lou Zirong hated Shuyin so much in his heart that he gritted his teeth. How could he believe that Shuyin was an expert? he suppressed the urge to scratch his face with great difficulty and almost cried out,Mu Sen, quickly save me! If you cant do it, ask your father to treat me. The Lou family will definitely thank you heavily after Im cured! I beg you, I cant take it!
Mu Sen was well aware of Mu Qings medical skills.
Viruses basically belonged to another field, and he couldnt cure Lou Zirong even if he came.
However, he still followed Lou Zirongs instructions and called his father, Mu Qing.
When Mu Qing arrived, he knew that Lou Zirong was in this state because of Shuyin. He red at his son and despised him for being a busybody.
He didnt give Lou Zirong a treatment and turned to leave.
Chapter 1223
Chapter 1223: Was I wrong?
Trantor: 549690339
Mu Qing had seen for himself how badly Jing Yichen had dealt with those who tried to harm Shangguan ning!
Jing Rui and Jing Yichen were the same. Mu Qing would not offend Jing Rui and Jing Yichen for Lou Zirong. Otherwise, he would be in big trouble when Jing Yichen came back from vacation.
Mu Qing knew Shuyin. She was a beautiful girl, cold and quiet. She didnt know how to socialize, and she wasnt the kind of person who would stir up trouble. She was very low-key.
Lou Zirong must have offended her for her to punish him like this.
When mu Sen saw his father turn around and leave without a word, he was stunned.
Mu Qing had a good temper and treated people in a friendly way. He was always warm to the Lou family. Every time Lou ruofei came for acupuncture, he would ask her with a smile if she was feeling better and encourage her to do the surgery so that she would not be afraid.
Why was her attitude so strange when she saw Lou Zirong today?
Lou Zirong had no idea what was going on. He knew Mu Qing, but they were not close. Mu Qing was a famous doctor in A city. Not everyone could ask him to treat them.
Mu Sen, does uncle mu not recognize me? Quickly tell him, Im Lou Zirong! Im waiting for him to save me!
Wait a minute, Ill go and tell my dad. I guess he didnt recognize you because your face is swollen.
Mu Sen was lying through his teeth. He had already revealed Lou Zirongs identity. It was impossible that Mu Qing did not know. There must be some other reason. He had to find out.
As soon as he walked out of the emergency room, he was pped by Mu Qing who had been waiting outside.
Mu Sen had been beaten by mu Wensheng many times in his life, but Mu Qing rarely hit him. Mu Sen knew that he was really angry when he was hit by Mu Qing.
Mu Qing pulled his son by the ear and walked into a small office outside the emergency room. He started to scold his son, Youve lived these two years in vain! Your brain is filled with water? What did I tell you to be Jing Ruis friend? you dont have to be willing to be his enemy. The friendship between family mu and family Jing will only be satisfied if it is destroyed by you?
That was a bit too harsh. Mu Wensheng was getting on in years. Although he still fought with Jing Tianyuan every day, he actually cared a lot about Jing Tianyuan. They had been friends for decades. They were more like brothers than brothers. He had always hoped that family mu and family Jing could be on good terms.
Mu Wensheng had once said that if family mu and family Jing fell out in the future, he would not be able to rest in peace and would be whipped even after he turned into a ghost.
It was undeniable that without the huge financial support of family Jing, family mu would not have been able to develop to such a scale. So the old man was grateful to family Jing from the bottom of his heart. His lifelong wish was to carry forward the medical skills of family mu, and the full support of family Jing was indispensable.
Dad, I am not Jing Ruis enemy. He is an indifferent man, and I will be embarrassed if I suddenly approach him. We have to take it slow. Dont worry, even if we cant be friends, we definitely wont be enemies.
Mu Sens rtionship with Jing Rui was very ordinary. The only person he kept in touch with was Jing Xi. But for some reason, Jing Xi seemed to be not close to him recently.
Why didnt you let Lou Zirong see? Hes from the Lou family, you should at least give him some face.
Mu Qing was enraged. He said angrily,Family mu doesnt have to show respect to anyone in A city except for family Jing. What was the Lou family? they were just a second-rate family that had relied on the Jing familys support. Old master didnt even give face to old master Jing, so why should I lower myself to smile at Lou Zirong? Has your brain been eaten by a dog?
No, I didnt mean that ...
Lou Zirong has offended Shuyin, and he will not have a good time in the future. If you get involved in this, dontin to me when Jing Rui beats you up. He has invested more than a billion Yuan in our hospital, and Jing Rui is in charge of family Jing now. If the funds are taken back, I will beat you up!
Mu Sen could not help but frown,dad, it might be a small matter. Havent the Lou family and the Jing family always been on good terms? Its only right to save Lou Zirong, right?
Dont talk nonsense, quickly drive him away and let him find someone else to treat him. Just say that I cant treat him! Remember, if you dont know whats going on, just ask. Call Jing Rui immediately and ask him whats going on!
Mu Qing and Jing Yichen had been close for so many years. Was it because of Jing Yichens gentle personality?
Jing Yichen was even crueler than Jing Rui when he got cold.
Sometimes, he wouldnt even look at you even if you spoke ten sentences to him.
But Mu Qing knew that he didnt look down on anyone, and he had never looked down on family mu. He was always cold to anyone except for Shangguan ning. He was even cold to his own father and grandfather, not to mention outsiders.
If one was too soft-hearted when in contact with family Jing, they would be tortured to death in minutes.
Jing Rui had climbed out of a pile of dead bodies and had been an assassin for so long in an assassin organization. It was impossible for him to chat andugh like a normal person.
Mu Qing could understand the indifference of the Jing family, but mu Sen could not.
Dad, its not necessarily Lou Zirongs fault. Hes very popr and has a good personality. I cant drive him away at this time. Besides, hes ruofeis brother. If I drive him away, ruofei will be unhappy when she finds out.
Mu Qing was so angry at his son. He was thinking about the second miss of the Lou family!
Alright, alright, get out of family MUs Hospital! I wont stop you if you want to take the Lou surname, but from now on, dont call me dad. I dont have a son like you! Dont even think about inheriting the hospital. Id rather hand the hospital over to your cousins than you!
After Mu Qing finished speaking, he pushed the door open and left, leaving behind a stunned mu Sen.
This was the first time in his life that mu Sen had seen his father so angry.
Did he really do something wrong?
Mu Sen was in a daze when he heard a gentle voice calling out to him from outside,Mu Sen, where are you? are you there?
Mu Sens spirit jolted. He immediately pushed the door open and walked out.Ruofei, Im here. Why are you here? he asked.
As soon as Lou ruofei saw him, she immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Her face was slightly red, and there were fine beads of sweat on her forehead. She had obviously rushed over.
Big brother called me. I was just nearby, so I came immediately.
Her delicate face showed heartache and anxiety.How did big brothers face be like this? Can you please think of a way to stop him from suffering?
Chapter 1224
Chapter 1224: Missing
Trantor: 549690339
Mu Sen had known Lou ruofei for a long time, but he had never seen her so flustered.
She had always been calm and spoke unhurriedly. She had the demeanor of ady from a wealthy family. She was so anxious today. It was obvious that she was very worried about Lou Zirong.
Seeing Lou ruofei like this, mu Sens heart ached for her.
He looked at Lou ruofeis expectant and anxious eyes, and his heart jumped.Ruofei, dont worry. Ive just discussed it with my father. He doesnt have any good ideas. I can give him some anesthetic to reduce the pain.
Alright, Ill listen to you! Im so grateful to you. When my big brother is better, Ill treat you to a meal to show my appreciation!
Lou ruofei had been keeping a distance from mu Sen, but this time, her brother hade to her for help. She couldnt refuse.
There was nothing she could do to repay mu Sen, so she could only treat him to a meal and then give him a more expensive gift.
Lou ruofei didnt know if Lou Zirong did it intentionally or not. Very few people should know that mu Sen liked her. Did Lou Ziyi find out something and tell him?
However, now was not the time to pursue these matters. The most important thing was to cure Lou Zijin.
Usually, Lou Zirong took care of her, his cousin, and did all the responsibilities that an elder brother should have. Lou ruofei didnt want to think too badly of him. She just wanted to help him do something.
Mu Sen injected a strong anesthetic into Lou Zirong. Lou Zirong fell asleep and finally stopped wailing.
However, even in a state of unconsciousness, his body still had an instinctive reaction to the invasion of the virus. From time to time, he would Twitch and shake, even foaming at the mouth. It was a terrifying sight.
Lou ruofei felt that it was too cruel. She couldnt stand it. Mu Sen, is there no cure for my brothers virus? How could he continue like this? The Lou familys matters are still waiting for him to deal with. He cant just stay unconscious like this. Im also afraid that his life will be in danger if hes unconscious for too long.
Her voice was gentle and pleasant. Because of the urgency in her voice, it seemed to have a fiery aura to it, and the sense of alienation was immediately reduced by a lot.
Mu Sen had studied medicine for so many years, but this was the first time he felt that it was useful. He was extremely happy.
However, this was the first time he felt that he was especially useless!
He couldnt even determine what kind of virus Lou Zirong had been infected with.
There were tens of thousands of viruses in the world, but most people only knew about the HIV virus that caused people to change their color. As a doctor, mu Sen knew more than ordinary people, but it was useless.
When Peter had taught him about viruses, he had only learned the most basic parts. Before he could start learning the more profound parts, Jing Rui had already transferred Peter away.
Now that he thought about it, could Jing Rui have deliberately called Peter away?
In this way, Shuyin would be the only person in the entire A city who was proficient in viruses. This would be her most powerful weapon and the most effective way for her to protect herself.
It was wrong!
To protect himself?
Could it be that ... Lou Zirong bullied Shuyin?
This thought shed through mu Sens mind. He nced at the worried Lou ruofei and finally said in a deep voice,I think theres only one person in the entire A city who can save your brother.
In fact, his guess was not urate.
Not in the entire city, but in the entire world, the only person who could cure Lou Zirong was Shuyin! For things like viruses, every researcher in the Research Institute could basically cultivate several special viruses by themselves, and it was very difficult for others to ovee them.
And Shuyin was one of the best.
Lou Zijin wouldnt die, but he would be in so much pain that he would want to die.
Mu Sen did not exin further. He called Jing Rui in front of Lou ruofei.
He did not have Shuyins phone number and could not ask her directly, so he could only ask Jing Rui.
The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. Jing Rui said coldly,Is there something?
Is Shuyin here? I want to ask her something.
Hearing that mu Sen was looking for Shuyin, Jing Rui said in an unfriendly tone,Shes not here. If you have anything, just ask me. I know everything about her.
Mu Sen could only smile bitterly. It seemed that he really valued Shuyin.
Its like this, Lou Zirong is with me. Hes been infected with a rare virus and is in extreme pain. I want to ask Shuyin how to cure him. ording to Lou Zirong, Shuyin might have infected him on purpose.
Although Jing Rui had just said that he knew everything about Shuyin, he really did not know about this.
Lou Zirong had actually met Shuyin before?
Damn it!
Theres no solution!He said coldly.
Jing Rui didnt believe that Shuyin would let Lou Zirong get infected with the virus for no reason. She cherished all the viruses in her hands. Even when Jing Xi cried and wanted to y, she had never let go.
She had once said that every virus was precious, and the more toxic the virus was, the better it would be kept. Otherwise, if a little of it leaked out, it could cause a disease.
Lou Zirong must have said something to Shuyin, and it must be about Lou ruofu!
Jing Rui hung up the phone and called Shuyin.
However, the call didnt go through after two calls!
He dropped the work at hand and drove to school.
However, he couldnt find Shuyin even after searching the school for a long time. He only found the backpack that she never left with her easily, and even her phone was in the bag.
Jing Rui easily cracked the password of her phone. Other than the two missed calls from him, the only program running on her phone was the recording function.
He yed the recording and heard the entire conversation between Shuyin and Lou Zirong.
If Lou Zirong was with Jing Rui now, he would have been beaten to death.
When did he say he wanted to marry Lou ruofu?
Since when was it the Lou familys turn to point fingers at his marriage with Shuyin?
Even Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning had never interfered with his love life, but Lou Zirong was even tougher than his parents.
Jing Ruis anger almost burned him.
No wonder Shuyin gave Lou Zirong an extremely powerful virus. She didnt take Lou Zirongs life. She really had a good temper!
However, Lou Zirong had met with Shuyin and threatened her before. Why didnt any of Shuyins men who were responsible for protecting her report to him?
Wheres Gao ya?
When the cold wind found Gao ya and the other three, Jing Rui looked a bit upset.
The four of them were good at fighting, but they were all unconscious now. Ordinary knockout drugs were not effective on Gao ya. Jing Rui could only guess that they were all knocked out by Shuyins virus.
It didnt seem to be a good thing for his woman to be too strong!
Where did she go?
Why did he knock Gao ya and the others out?
Why didnt he bring his backpack and phone?
Did Lou Zirongs words hurt her? Or was she alreadypletely sure that he was the one who forced Shucheng mountain to death?
Jing Rui felt a strong sense of danger.

Chapter 1225: Wee home
Trantor: 549690339
It was impossible for a person to disappear without a trace. There must be some clues.
It was almost impossible to take someone away from Jing Rui in A city.
He began to mobilize all his power to search for Shu Yin.
As for Shuyin, she was currently on a ne flying to another city. Beside her were a few Men in ck who were fully armed.
The nended after two hours, and Shu Yin was forcefully brought into a car.
This was a familiar yet strange city. It was a city that she had wanted toe back to but couldn t. It was also a city that she had gradually forgotten.
Her home used to be here.
The man beside her handed her his phone.Miss, Madam is calling.
Madam?
Shuyin couldnt help but smile sarcastically. Was her mother really alive? And she finally stopped pretending to be an unmarried girl and became a Madam?
She took the phone and a melodious voice came from the other end.Xiao Yin, wee home!
Her tone was gentle, and there was anticipation and joy in her voice. She sounded like a mother who missed her daughter.
However, Shuyin was unmoved. She said coldly,I dont have a home!
He had forcefully brought her here without considering her wishes and even wanted to put on a show of a mother-daughter rtionship?
Besides, it was still unknown whether the person who called was a human or a ghost. In her memory, her mother was dead. She didnt know who killed her, but it was true that her father was heartbroken.
It was also after her death that Shu Yin was sent to the Virus Research Institute by Shu Chengshan.
Xiao Yin, dont be like this. Havent you always been very obedient when you were young? Why are you so aggressive now? Mom hasnt seen you in a long time. I miss you so much. Come home!
My mother is already dead. How long do you want to keep up the act?
The woman on the other end of the phone sighed.Xiao Yin, you dont know what happened back then. I cant exin too much to you now. I have my own difficulties. When youre home, we can reminisce about the past.
Shuyin didnt believe a single word, nor did she dare to believe it.
If her mother was really not dead, why did she lie to her father? Why did she abandon the father and daughter?
Now that things hade to this, even if the Man in ck didnt force her, she would still get to the bottom of it!
For so many years, she only felt that her mother was heartless, but she didnt hate her. The person she hated had always been Shu Chengshan, who had personally sent her to the Research Institute.
What if she was too young back then and made a wrong judgment?
What if she hated the wrong person!
She had always believed in her memories before she was eight years old because she had a photographic memory. She could remember some trivial things clearly.
But now, she was starting to doubt her own memory.
How could outsiders know about their family of three? Some of the things that the woman had described were things that only her parents would know.
At least, she didnt call her Yinyin, but Xiao Yin.
She gradually became familiar with the surrounding roads and streets, and they slowly ovepped with the ones in her memory.
It had been ten years, but the luxurious high-end vimunity had not changed at all. It was quiet and beautiful.
Shuyin fell into a trance for a moment, as if she had returned to her childhood!
In all fairness, most of the time when she lived here, it was beautiful and happy. Her parents never quarreled, and the family was rich enough. Her biggest worry every day was that her mother had bought a new dress and refused to hold her because she was afraid that she would wrinkle the dress.
This was once the purest and happiest home in her life!
She didnt need anyone to lead the way. Shuyin found her familys Vi based on her memory from ten years ago.
Arge patch of roses hung from the outer wall of the vi.
It was Midsummer, and the roses bloomed enchantingly. The pink flowers wereyered, attracting many bees and butterflies to collect honey.
The fragrance of the flowers assailed his nose, just like his childhood memories.
Every summer, Shuyin would always get a flower wreath made of roses. She would wear it on her head, ride on her fathers neck, and catch butterflies in the garden with a smile.
Every time this happened, she would be reprimanded by her mother.
She didnt like her daughter riding on her husbands neck, and she didnt like her favorite rose to be folded into a Gand.
Memories came flooding in, and even many things that Shu Yin had forgotten gradually became clear.
She had a puppy before, but her mother didnt like dogs, so her father sent it away. She was sad for a long time.
She had been naughty and damaged her mothers favorite diamond ne, and she had pped her. It was her father who had pleaded for her and promised to buy a prettier one for her mother, so she had escaped.
But, how did her mother die?
She seemed to remember it, but at the same time, she didn t. She wasnt sure if the images in her mind were a dream or reality.
She had always thought that Lucas was the one who killed her parents, and Lucas had inadvertently revealed many things about her.
However, Shuyin wasnt sure now.
Luckily, Lucas was still alive and was under Jing Ruis control. When she returned to A city, she would definitely ask Lucas who had killed her parents and whether they were dead or not.
The feeling of doubting herself was so terrible that Shuyin was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
Shuyin stood outside the vi for a long time, but the Men in ck who had sent her here didnt seem to have any intention of urging her. They just let her stand there.
Shuyin didnt know what was waiting for her in the vi. She used to be fearless, but this door might push her to hell.
She took a deep breath, slowly pushed open the door that had been sealed in her memory for a long time, and walked in.
The vi covered arge area, and the flowers and trees inside were luxuriant and beautifully trimmed. It was obvious that someone had carefully taken care of them.
No matter how calm Shuyin was, her heart was in turmoil. Everything here was exactly the same as when she was young. It was so simr that she suspected that she had traveled back in time ten years ago!
She slowly walked through the entire garden and came to the White marble steps. She walked up step by step.
The door was open, and the melodious sound of a piano could be heard from inside.
Shuyin walked in and immediately saw the woman ying the zither by the floor-to-ceiling window.
She was dressed in white, and the hem of her dress reached the ground. The breeze blew in through the window, and her white chiffon dress fluttered with the wind. She had a refreshing and ethereal air to her, like a fairy that did not belong to the mortal world.
Her long ck hair was draped over her shoulders, and her side profile was unbelievably beautiful and familiar!
The woman heard the sound of footsteps, but her fingers did not stop. A smooth song reverberated in the empty vi. She said indifferently,Little Yin, sit down first. Ill finish this song.
Shu Yin felt as if she had been struck by lightning!
Impossible! You cant be alive! Who the hell are you?
Chapter 1226
Chapter 1226: Why didnt you die?
Trantor: 549690339
The person in front of her eyespletely ovepped with the person in Shuyins memory!
Her demeanor, her tone, her long hair, and her white clothes ... This was clearly her mother, Jiang Manshu!
Her appearance hadnt changed much from ten years ago. Her skin was still white and delicate, and her figure was still graceful and slender. She seemed to be the same starlet in her twenties!
No one could imitate a person to such an extent!
Shu Yin seemed to be fixed in ce. Her body was stiff and her mind was nk.
Even if ten years had passed, she would never mistake her biological mother!
This was because this figure had appeared in her dreams countless times. She had heard this voice for eight years. How could she forget it?
Shuyin closed her eyes and opened them again. She repeated this process many times until she was sure that she wasnt hallucinating and wasnt dreaming.No, its not like that. My mother is dead. She didnt want me for a long time ...
Jiang Manshu acted as if she had not heard Shuyins words at all. She continued to y the zither in an elegant posture. The melodious music flowed out from her fingertips, as if it could cleanse a persons soul.
However, Shuyin only felt that it was ear-piercing and unpleasant!
Her mother was not dead! She was alive! He had always been alive!
And because her father had lost his wife, he sent her away to avenge his wife!
She didnt die, so who would kill her?
Shuyin had always thought that Lucas was the one who killed Jiang Manshu. He had also said that Jiang Manshu had died a terrible death, but Shu Chengshan had never suspected Lucas. Otherwise, he would not have handed his daughter over to Lucas.
There were so many doubts, and the conspiracy and secrets behind it made Shuyins hair stand on end!
Shu Chengshan loved Jiang Manshu to the bone, and Jiang Manshu was also deeply in love with him. She was a person who paid so much attention to her screen image and cherished her celebrity aura so much, but she was willing to give birth to his child. Didnt that mean that she loved him enough?
Her original name was Jiang man. After she fell in love with Shu Chengshan, she changed her name to Jiang Manshu. She ended her name with her lovers surname. She must have loved this man very much, right?
But why did she fake her death? Who did she want to kill with the help of Shucheng mountain?
She had lied to everyone!
When the song ended, Jiang Manshu stood up slowly. She lifted the hem of her dress and walked towards Shu Yin elegantly.
She had always been beautiful, both on and off the stage. Otherwise, how could Shu Chengshan only have her in his heart and eyes? he himself was also a beautiful man with outstanding looks.
Shuyin had always been a materialist and didnt believe in ghosts or gods.
However, when she saw Jiang Manshu, who had ck hair and was dressed in white, walking towards her as light as a feather, Shuyins hair stood on end. She felt as if she had run into a ghost.
Shuyin subconsciously took a step back and looked at Jiang Manshu in shock.Donte near me!
Her mind was in aplete mess, and she couldnt think properly. Even though the person in front of her was her biological mother, Shuyin didnt trust her at all.
Xiao Yin, dont be like this. Come here and let mommy hug you. Youve grown up and look like me. Youre so beautiful. Im so happy.
Jiang Manshu stopped in her tracks and looked at Shuyins face. She seemed to be sighing.
Her face was filled with guilt and love, looking like a mother who loved her daughter very much.
This trick might be able to fool others, but it couldnt fool Shuyin!
Jiang Manshu was an actress. Even though she wasnt an A-list female star ten years ago and could only act in supporting roles, her acting skills had long since reached the point of perfection!
In the past, Jiang Manshu had been lukewarm towards her. Shuyin didnt believe that after not seeing her for ten years, she would suddenly dote on her daughter!
She had no feelings for this pretentious woman in front of her anyway!
All of her feelings had been wiped out in her first year at the Virus Research Institute.
Why didnt you die?
Shuyins eyes were a little red. She roared and questioned him.
How could there be such a cruel mother in the world who abandoned her daughter and lived such a carefree life!
There wasnt a single wrinkle on her face, and her skin was delicate. Clearly, she had been living afortable life for the past ten years and had been taking care of her skin carefully. Otherwise, how could a forty-year-old woman look like a twenty-year-old girl?
She gave birth to her, so why did she throw her away? Why did she abandon her husband who loved her so deeply?
Sigh, its a long story. We should sit down and have a good chat.
Jiang Manshu said as she sat down on the sofa. She waved at Shuyin.Come and sit here. Dont just stand there. This is your home. You havent been back for ten years. Have you grown distant?
Shuyin looked at her with a pained expression, but she didnt move an inch.
You faked your death just to encourage my dad to avenge you? You want him to help you kill?
Im in the Research Institute, youve always known, right? Im living a life worse than death in there, and youre going to just stand by and watch?
Who was it that sent me to the Research Institute? Who is it?
Shuyin was almost screaming at the end of her sentence.
Compared to Shuyins loss of control, trembling, and fear, Jiang Manshu was simply calm and even indifferent.
She gently stroked her soft long hair and said without much concern,Oh, Ive mentioned this to your father, but I didnt expect him to agree!
Shuyin looked at her calm expression in disbelief. Was this her biological mother? What could a stepmother be like?
But Xiao Yin, dont misunderstand. Your father and I thought that it was just a high-level Research Institute. We sent you there to protect you. Your father has made too many enemies, and many people want to kill us for revenge. The Virus Research Institute is the only ce that can fight against the killer organization.
Jiang Manshu poured herself a cup of tea gently and took a sip slowly before continuing,
Lucas is your fathers good friend. Hes a very loyal person, so its a good choice to hand you over to him. At least you survived! You cant me your father for this, hes doing this for your own good, otherwise you would have been killed long ago.
Id rather die!
Shuyin gritted her teeth tightly. She tried her best to control herself and suppress the urge to ssh the small bottle of virus on Jiang Manshus face!
He survived?
How did she survive?
She had endured through brutal torture time and time again!
During those years, she had been hovering on the edge of life and death. Every day was like a living hell!
Since Jiang Manshu said it so easily, why didnt she give it a try!
Lucas was not human at all!
Alright, dont say things in a fit of anger. Mom picked you up this time because she wanted to take you with her. However, before you leave, you still have to kill someone!
Chapter 1227
Chapter 1227: Mother-daughter pair
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin suddenlyughed. Sheughed crazily,ughed destedly, andughed until tears came out.
Shes really a mother, asking her daughter to kill someone as soon as they met! In your eyes, Im not even worth a de of grass!
He killed your father. You must avenge your father!
Jiang Manshus calm expression disappeared, and her expression suddenly became fierce.
Shuyin looked into her eyes and said,Im not going to go!
And Im telling you, if you dare to touch a single hair on his head, Ill kill you immediately!
Jiang Manshu suddenly stood up and pointed at Shuyins nose.Im your mother! Dont you help an outsider! What kind of person is Jing Rui that you are so devoted to? Youre not married to him yet, and even if you were, yourst name would still be Shu. You have to avenge your father!
Shuyinughed with tears in her eyes! They knew my surname was Shu when I was seeking revenge. Why didnt anyone remember my surname when I was living a life worse than death? Whats more, you said that Jing Rui killed Shucheng mountain, but wheres the evidence? Show me the evidence! If you cant produce any evidence, Ill automatically assume that you killed your husband!
Are you trying to murder your husband? Jiang Manshu, are you human? But Shucheng Shan is not a good man either. Ive hated him for ten years. Jing Rui helped me kill him, and Ill marry him as a reward. How nice would that be?
After not seeing her for ten years, her daughters transformation was shocking. Other than her appearance and the shadow of her childhood, Jiang Manshu could not recognize her at all!
When did she be so strong-willed?
They dared to say anything. They didnt even call them mom and dad. They just called their names!
Jiang Manshus fingers trembled in anger. She raised her hand and gave Shuyin a tight p.Nonsense, your fathers death has nothing to do with me! Besides, hes not even married to me, so hes not my husband!
Shuyin was pped so hard that her brain was a little muddled.
She had been beaten by Jiang Manshu when she was young, but she had never dared to fight back.
But now, she had grown up!
Shuyin touched her burning face and looked up at Jiang Manshu with a strange smile. Then, she spat out a mouthful of blood on Jiang Manshus delicate face.
Ah!
Jiang Manshu screamed and immediately vomited in disgust!
She was a clean freak and loved to wear white clothes. She would wash her hands repeatedly when she touched dirty things. Now that Shuyin had sprayed blood all over her face, she almost felt disgusted to death.
Shuyin took an empty teacup and poured herself some tea to rinse her mouth. Then, she sat on the sofa with a cold face.
Everything in the house was familiar yet strange, like yet hate. The two feelings intertwined and made her a little breathless.
She did not know why, but when she saw Jiang Manshu vomiting in pain, she felt much better.
Hit her?
Jiang Manshu didnt have the right!
However, what did she mean by not marrying Shucheng Shan?
Could it be that they didnt register their marriage at all and were just living together?
Why arent you getting married?
Shu Chengshan loved this woman so much that he wanted to give her the best things in the world. How could he not give her a marriage certificate?
They lived like a married couple, and Shuyin never knew that her parents were just cohabiting.
This didnt make sense. There must be something she didnt know!
Jiang Manshu ran into the bathroom to wash her face. The sound of vomiting could be heard non-stop, but Shuyin did not even frown.
What kind of dirty things had she not seen in the Virus Research Institute?
When her body was injected with an excessive amount of virus, she would also vomit badly.
Since Jiang Manshu was looking for trouble, he would let her vomit as much as she wanted.
The house had been cleaned up, but there were no obvious signs of life. Shuyin took a quick look and knew that Jiang Manshu had just moved in.
Of course, she was not willing to clean up the room herself. This kind of thing was definitely done by the servants. She had always enjoyed it.
The servants did not do their best to clean the ce. asionally, there would be a thickyer of dust in some corners.
Shuyin sneered. It seemed that Jiang Manshu had decorated this ce so that she coulde back. She wanted to remind her of her childhood memories, make her hate Jing Rui, and then kill him.
She had been gone for a long time, and she did not know if Jing Rui had noticed.
She hoped that he would not look for her for the time being and note here.
She did not want Jing Rui to know that she had such a mother.
She was also afraid that if Jing Rui came, it would be a trap that had been set up long ago, waiting for him to walk into it.
Shuyin wanted to give Jing Rui a call, but her bag and phone were thrown away.
She looked at Jiang Manshus phone on the table and picked it up, trying to crack the password.
Shuyin tried Jiang Manshus birthday, Shu Chengshans birthday, and even her own birthday, but it was all wrong.
Sheughed at herself and felt that she was too naive!
If Jiang Manshu could make use of Shucheng mountain and abandon her daughter, how could she use their birthday as a password?
But Shuyin didnt give up. She kept trying.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind him,whats wrong? youve just arrived and you already want to call that man? You cant untie it, dont waste your energy!
Jiang Manshu had washed her face and even changed her clothes. She looked down at Shuyin with a condescending look in her eyes.
I advise you to wake up as soon as possible. His engagement with you is just for fun. The woman hes going to marry is the eldest daughter of the Lou family, not you!
Shu Yin suddenly raised her head and asked coldly,How do you even know about this?
Shuyin had only found out about Lou ruofus matter from Jing Rui. How could an outsider like Jiang Manshu know about this?
Whats your rtionship with the Lou family?
Shuyin reacted very quickly. This matter must have spread from the Lou family.
You dont have to worry about that. You just need to know that Im your mother and I wont harm you. Youre marrying the murderer of your father and even sharing the same bed with him. Arent you afraid that your father will turn into a ghost in the middle of the night and go to find you?
Im afraid, Im afraid he wonte! If hees to find me, Ill have to ask him if his heart is ck.
Shuyin raised her eyebrows slightly and said,hes already a ghost. He doesnt dare toe and find me. Its obvious that hes done something wrong. At least he still has some dignity, unlike you, who lives so shamelessly and even forces your daughter to die.
In terms of sarcasm, Jiang Manshu was far worse than Shuyin.
When Shuyin was young, she never dared to talk back. She must have been a little girl who would obediently lower her head when she red at her.
Jiang Manshu had thought that Shuyin would be easy to control, but she didnt expect her to be full of thorns.
She choked on Shuyins words, but she had no intention of lowering her head.
After all, they hadnt seen each other for ten years, so it was normal for Shuyin to be a little emotional.
She didnt believe that Shuyin would always trust Jing Rui. If Jing Rui married someone else, she would have given up.

Chapter 1228: Elder sister
Trantor: 549690339
Jiang Manshus attitude suddenly changed, and she said in a gentle tone,I dont want to hurt you. I just want you to stay here with me for two days. Dont say things in a fit of anger. This is your home. Lets not talk about the past for now ...
Before Jiang Manshu could finish her sentence, Shuyin had already turned around and walked out.
She hated being pretentious with Jiang Manshu here!
However, not long after he left, Shuyin returned with a cold face.
It turned out that the vi had been strictly guarded. The door was locked, the courtyard wall was high, and there were many Men in ck with guns around!
No wonder Jiang Manshu didnt stop her. She knew that she couldnt get out!
You keep saying that youre my biological mother, but what do you mean by this?
Shuyin treated Jiang Manshu as if she was a stranger. Her attitude was indifferent, and she did not get angry at being stopped.
It wasnt easy for me to bring you back, of course I cant let you go like this. Xiao Yin, dont worry, theyre just putting on a show. They wont really shoot. Those are tranquilizer guns, theyre not fatal.
Jiang Manshu was surprisingly patient. She smiled and said,I was nning to introduce you to someone tomorrow. If you leave, you wont be able to see her.
Shuyin knew that she couldnt leave for the time being, so she could only stay with a cold face.
As for the person that Jiang Manshu wanted to introduce to her, Shuyin met him the next morning.
She was an extremely beautiful woman with an outstanding appearance and outstanding temperament.
Shuyin felt a sense of familiarity when she looked at her. After a while, she realized that the woman in front of her actually looked very simr to Jiang Manshu!
Shuyin herself also looked like Jiang Manshu. In that case, she also looked a little like this woman.
It was just that the temperament of the two people was different.
Xiao Ling,e here quickly, youve finallye!
Jiang Manshus face was filled with joy and love. She pulled the girl in front of Shuyin and introduced her,This is your younger sister, Shuyin. Shes two years younger than you. Xiao Yin, this is your sister, Li Jing. You are sisters by blood and you have finally met! Im so happy!
Shuyins heart was filled with shock. She turned to look at Jiang Manshu in disbelief.
When she saw Li Jing, she had some guesses in her heart, but she didnt expect it to be true!
Before her, Jiang Manshu had already given birth to a daughter!
Shuyin was still digesting this huge piece of news, but Li Jing obviously knew of her existence. She grinned and said,Little sister, I finally get to see you. No wonder Mom always praises you for being pretty. She wasnt exaggerating at all. Youre the most beautiful girl Ive ever seen!
Li Jing was warm and friendly. She was beautiful, and her simple smile made people feel that she was radiant.
In terms of appearance, she wasparable to Shuyin, but one was reserved and cold, while the other was gorgeous and mboyant.
Shuyins shock quickly turned into mockery. She ignored Li Jings friendliness and asked Jiang Manshu coldly,I dont have the same father as her, right? You sure have a lot of secrets! I finally know the reason why you didnt get married to Shucheng Shan!
Jiang Manshu must have registered her marriage with someone else!
Li Jings appearance was simr to Jiang Manshu s, but she didnt look like Shu Chengshan at all. Shuyin instinctively felt that Li Jings father was someone else.
The two daughters did not have the same father, but Jiang Manshu did not look embarrassed at all. Instead, she smiled and said,Xiao Yin, I didnt mean to hide it from him. Your father loves me too much. I didnt want to hurt him, so I kept it from him.
Shuyin felt disgusted by this kind of behavior, which was for the good of others and not for others sake!
She used to think that her parents were very loving and were as good as one person. Jiang Manshu had even changed her name for Shucheng mountain!
It turned out that everything was fake!
If the dead Shu Chengshan knew about this, he wondered if he woulde back to life.
Sister, dont me mom. She was forced to do this!
Li Jing took a step forward, wanting to hold Shuyins hand and talk to her, but Shuyin took a step back and avoided her.
Li Jings face froze for a moment, but she quickly regained herposure and continued to smile. Its not easy for mom. As her daughters, we should be filial to her. Little sister, havent you not seen your mother for many years? Now that he had seen her, he would let the past be in the past! Its fine if you dont like me, but please dont dislike mom. She has always loved you.
Shuyin wasnt touched by her words at all. She said without holding back,Im so sorry, but I dont like either of you!
Li Jing and Jiang Manshus expressions turned ugly.
Li Jing had tried to be friendly twice, but all she got in return was Shuyins cold words. She was also a Princess-like youngdy and had never been treated like this before!
She was furious.Dont be ungrateful. Mom only asked me to acknowledge you because she loves you. Our Li family is a prestigious family. Not everyone can enter! Ive worked hard for a long time before the family agreed to let you be the second miss of the Li family!
What?
Enter the Li family and be the Li familys second miss?
Although Shuyin hated Shu Chengshan to the core, she had no ns to change her surname!
She sneered,your Li family is so powerful, how could you have a daughter-inw like Jiang Manshu?; Not only did she give birth to you, but she also wanted to have a child with another man. Your Li family is really magnanimous! Doesnt your dad mind that hes being cuckolded?
Li Jing almost choked on Shuyins words.
She thought that her words were harsh enough, but Shuyins words were even worse than hers!
Mommy was snatched away by your daddy. She was forced!
Oh, thats because you havent seen how loving they are.
Of course, Shuyin didnt believe that Jiang Manshu was forced. She didnt know what had happened back then, but she knew that Jiang Manshu had led a carefree life back then, and Shu Chengshan couldnt wait to spoil her.
However, Shu Chengshan seemed to have always felt guilty towards Jiang Manshu, and Shuyin could not understand where his guilt came from.
Was it really because he had snatched Jiang Manshu away?
The past had refreshed Shuyins perception time and time again. She now had serious doubts about her memories before she was eight years old.
Many of the judgments he made in his youth might have been wrong.
While Shuyin was confronting her mother and half-sister coldly, Jing Rui had almost turned A city upside down!
The first to bear the brunt was the Lou family.
The conversation between Shuyin and Lou Zirong was the source of Jing Ruis anger.
Even though his family name was Jing, Jing Rui was still young. The Lou family might be respectful to Jing Yichen, but they would look down on Jing Rui.
Jing Rui soon showed the Lou family how powerful he was.
Chapter 1229
Chapter 1229: Who is more sincere?
Trantor: 549690339
Although Shuyin didnt like Lou Zirong, she didnt hate him to the point of killing him. She just tortured him and let him know that she wasnt easy to bully.
Therefore, Lou Zirong only suffered for one day and one night. The next day, his face was much better. Although it was still itchy, it didnt make people go crazy.
However, even though his face was not mad, his heart was.
All of the Lou familys business transactions had been cut off, and all of their capital ounts had been frozen!
The four small families who had followed Lou mingzhen to Jing Rui to speak up for Lou ruofu were even worse off than the Lou family. They went bankrupt overnight and were in debt. Even the children of several families who were studying abroad were directly sent back to China!
The families that had intended to get closer to the Lou family immediately distanced themselves from them. No one would bet on the future of their family and their children.
There was only one minor in the Lou family who was studying overseas. He was Lou ruofeis younger brother, Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling was 15 years old this year. He studied at mit and had a weird personality. He was not close to anyone in his family. Even Lou ruofei, who had a good temper, could not get close to his brother. However, he was a genius.
At the age of six, he was sent to A citys famous aristocratic school by his father, Lou Mingyang. In just three years, he finished primary school, junior high school, and entered high school with the best results in the city.
After that, Lou Ziling lost interest in studying. He became addicted to the inte and various games.
He skipped sses, yed truant, hacked into the schoolswork system, broke through all the ess controls, and swaggered into theputer reading room with his ssmates. They began to y games in a group.
After that, Lou Ziling was expelled by the school. After Lou Mingyang put in a lot of effort to get him into mit, he was expelled again in just a month.
However, it was not Lou Zilings fault, but Jing Rui s.
Lou Ziling was expelled for no reason. Lou Mingyang thought that his son had caused trouble in school again. Before he could scold his son, he was called away by his brother, Lou mingzhen.
The entire Lou family was basically controlled by the old Lou mingzhens family. Lou Mingyangs family was just a support. Lou ruofei would also help to take care of the trivial matters in the family. Lou Ziling, on the other hand, did not care about anything.
Firstly, he was still young, and it was not the time for him to participate in the familys Affairs.
Secondly, his personality was really unpredictable. If he were to take over the family business, it would go bankrupt in less than a month.
Lou ruofei roughly knew about the small conflict between Lou Zirong and Shuyin. She originally thought that it was just a trivial matter. She didnt expect that it would affect her own brother!
Even if they werent close, they were still blood-rted siblings. Lou ruofeis feelings for her brother were actually more important than anyone else.
His brother had been fired for no reason, and this would be a stain on his life that would never be erased.
The Lou family had the ability to erase the expulsion record, but the Massachusetts Institute of Technology was not a ce where the Lou family could interfere!
She was extremely angry, but there was nothing she could do.
The second miss of the Lou family was pretty impressive and nice to hear, but in reality, she had no power at all.
Strength!
Without power, everything was just empty talk!
Lou ruofei secretly gritted her teeth and sat beside her brother. She whispered,Ziling, dont be sad. You can still go back to school after this.
Lou Ziling moved away from Lou ruofei and coldly said,Who said Im sad? I was forced to study because of you guys. If you want to go, you can go. Im not going!
Her good intentions were taken for granted. Lou ruofei no longer gritted her teeth. She wanted to bite her bastard brother to death!
Sure enough, you cant be close to him or treat him well. Otherwise, hell definitely stab you with his thorns and make you a bloody mess.
Every time Lou ruofei saw such an unsociable and cold younger brother, she would unconsciously think of the modest, sunny, and bright mu Sen.
The MU family and the Jing family had always been on good terms. Mu Sen did not know if he could send Lou Ziling back to mit.
Lou ruofei ignored Lou Ziling and drove straight to family MUs Hospital.
She couldnt interfere in the big matters of the family, but she should at least try to help her brother, right?
After understanding Lou ruofeis intentions, mu Sen could only smile bitterly.
Ruofei, Im afraid I cant do anything about your brother. Since it was Jing Ruis doing, no one would dare to go against him. If I go to him, family MUs Hospital will have to close down tomorrow.
Although mu Sen did not know what had happened, he could already see the severity of the situation.
The Lou family would probably disappear from the circle of the rich and powerful in city A!
He couldnt bear to see Lou ruofei sad, so he pointed out to her,I think you should talk to Shuyin about this. As long as she agrees, Jing Rui will not make things difficult for your brother.
Lou ruofei thanked him and left the hospital.
On the way to family Jing, Lou ruofei suddenly felt that maybe mu Sen only had a vague feeling about her. It was not love. She used to feel good about herself and thought that mu Sen had fallen in love with her.
In the future, she should not go to mu Sen for help.
Lou ruofei drove to Jing Ruis Vi, but was stopped at the gate by the cold wind.
Without waiting for her to speak, Han Feng said coldly,Second Miss Lou, please go back. My master doesnt have time to see you!
In fact, Lou ruofei had always been afraid of the Jing family. After she had seen Jing Rui thest time, she had been traumatized. She felt that Jing Ruis eyes were as sharp as knives, and he was cold and hard to get along with.
But she had a good impression of Shuyin.
No, no, no, Im not looking for your master. I want to have a chat with Shuyin, she said hurriedly.
She knew Han Feng. It was Han Feng who had brought her herest time. She knew that he was Jing Ruis man.
Han Feng looked at her with a strange expression.Second miss, dont you know that my young Madam has left city A because of the eldest master of the Lou family?
He had already guessed why Lou ruofei hade. He was the one who had hired someone to fire Lou Ziling.
If you want to send your brother back to school, you have to find the youngdy first. Before shees back, the lives of all the people in the Lou family will be in the hands of family Jing!
After following Jing Rui for a long time, Han Feng had be very arrogant and cold.
Lou ruofei was dumbfounded. Shuyin wasnt in city A!
What did big brother say to Shuyin yesterday?
Didnt he say that he only argued with Shuyin for a bit?
Big brother had lied to her!
Lou ruofei couldnt believe it. She went home in a daze and found out from her father that the Lou family had beenpletely shut down by the Jing family.
Her uncles family wanted to marry her to Jing Rui!
Why didnt I hear anything about this?!

The Lou family was in a mess, and Jing Rui was not any better.
Jing Zhi and Jing Xi were with him, jumping up and down, crying and shouting that they wanted to destroy the Lou family.
Although Jing Rui had pped the Lou family, he still felt that the Lou family was not responsible for Shuyins disappearance.
Since Shuyin could punish Lou Zirong, she wouldnt let the Lou family take him away so easily.
Jing Rui had not slept the whole night. He looked tired and his eyes were bloodshot.
He searched all over A city, but he couldnt find Shuyin.
He felt that Shuyin was probably not in city A anymore.
Jing Rui was busy directing his men and various forces to help find Shuyin.
In the evening, he had already discovered some clues.
Shuyin really wasnt in city A. She was actually in another city far away!
Jing Rui frowned. Was Shuyin really angry about Lou ruofu? Was she trying to escape from his world?
He didnt waste any time and brought his men to the city Shuyin was in.
City W was different from city A. City A was a modern metropolis, fashionable and prosperous, while city W was a famous ancient capital. It contained the vicissitudes of history and also showed a deep cultural heritage.
The streets were clean and neat, and even the style of the vi was antique.
Jing Rui stopped in front of a vi full of roses. He saw a few guns pointed at him and finally realized that he had found the right ce.
He pushed the door open and strode in.
They passed through the garden and entered the living room of the vi. Jing Rui saw the woman he was worried about.
He heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that she was fine!
Shuyin was stunned to see Jing Rui. She did not expect him toe so quickly.
She hoped that he wouldnte. This was a treacherous plot!
Jiang Manshu covered her mouth and giggled when she saw Jing Rui. Her voice was crisp and pleasant, like an innocent girl s, and her beautiful face made a beautiful picture.
Ah, what did I say? Jing Rui will definitelye to find you when Xiao Yin is missing! Youvee quite quickly. It seems that my daughter is really important to you. In that case, Im not worried to leave her in your hands!
Jing Rui frowned subconsciously. Could this person be Shuyins mother?
He took a closer look at Jiang Manshus face and finally matched her appearance with the one from ten years ago.
Her appearance had not changed much, except for her hairstyle. Jing Rui had looked up Jiang Manshus information when he was investigating Shuyin and had seen her photo, so he had a vague impression of her appearance.
Wasnt Jiang Manshu dead?
Lucas had admitted that he was the one who killed Jiang Manshu, and Jing Yichens investigation had also revealed that Jiang Manshu had been killed by Lucas ten years ago.
Then who was the one who was still alive?
Jing Rui looked at Shuyin subconsciously, only to see her shaking her head in confusion.
He understood now. Shuyin was also confused!
He knew more than Shuyin did.
Brother-inw is here. Mom, should we have a sumptuous meal tonight to wee him? Younger brother-inw is really a talented person, Ive really not seen many people as handsome as him. Younger sisters taste is really good!
Li Zhi was holding Jiang Manshus arm. Her voice was clear, and her smile was beautiful. Her whole body exuded a kind of beautiful brilliance, making it impossible for people to ignore her.
Jing Rui looked at Li Jings face and felt that she looked familiar.
She did look a little like Shuyin, but Jing Rui felt that the familiarity was not only about her appearance, but also something he could not exin.
This person was Shuyins sister?
Why didnt he find anything when he investigated back then?
There were only two possibilities for him not to find out. First, the so-called mother and sister were all fake. Second, Shuyins mother and sister were extremely powerful and their abilities were not inferior to his!
Jing Rui could tell at a nce whether they were wearing a mask or not.
It was obvious that these two were their real faces. They looked so simr to Shuyin, so it didnt seem like they were not blood-rted. It was easy to see through whether they were rtives. A DNA test could reveal the true colors of those demons and monsters.
Obviously, the two of them could only be thetter.
Jing Ruis expression turned serious.
Oh, mom, look, brother-inw is staring at me! My sister is still watching from the side. Hes not afraid that my sister will be jealous, but Im afraid that my sister will me me! I wont steal my sisters boyfriend. It wont be worth it if we hurt our sisterly rtionship!
Xiao Ling, dont talk nonsense. He must have thought that you two sisters look more alike, so he took a second look at you. Your sister is a generous person, she definitely wont be bothered by such a small matter!
Shuyin watched the mother and daughters act with a cold face. Jiang Manshu had asked her to kill Jing Rui while she was sleeping next to him yesterday, and she was so friendly and polite today. Even a ghost would not believe that there was no ghost in this!
She walked to Jing Rui and held his arm. She looked up at her mother and sister and said,Unfortunately, Im not magnanimous at all. Im the most narrow-minded and like to fuss over such small things! You two better stay away from him, or dont me me for not warning you if you lose an arm or a leg!
Shuyins tone was rather impolite, and Jing Rui could not help but turn to look at her.
They had only been separated for two days, but he felt as if they had been separated for two years!
She was still so sharp and straightforward, not giving him any face at all.
She wasnt injured and didnt seem to have suffered any grievances. She even changed into a new set of clothes and her long hair fell over her shoulders. The sunset shone on her body and was dyed with ayer of soft light. She was so beautiful that she didnt seem like a mortal.
Jing Rui didnt pay any attention to Jiang Manshu and her husband. His mind was on Shuyin, and he didnt hold back when he saw that Shuyin was being rude to them.
You took my fiance away? If theres a next time, Ill tten this ce!
His tone was arrogant, and there was obvious anger in it.
It was only because these two people had special identities and could be Shuyins rtives that he didnt make a move on them. If it were someone else, they would have been lying on the ground by now!
He didnt know how Shuyins rtionship with her mother was, but he knew that Shuyin had always yearned for fatherly love and motherly love.
If Jiang Manshu was still alive, it might be a good thing for Shuyin.
Jing Rui took Shuyins hand and turned to leave, but Jiang Manshu didnt seem to hear Jing Ruis threat. She said with a smile,Its sote, you should have dinner before you leave! It wasnt easy for me to get my daughter back, so I have to offer her father some incense!
Jing Rui and Shuyin stopped in their tracks at the same time.
Jing Rui turned around slowly and looked at Jiang Manshu coldly. It turned out that she was the one who had revealed Shucheng Shans death to Shuyin!
Chapter 1231
Chapter 1231: Confessed
Trantor: 549690339
But the key was, how did Jiang Manshu know about Shucheng Shans death?
This woman was strange from head to toe!
Shuyin didnt know that Jing Rui had already guessed that Jiang Manshu had leaked the secret when she said burn some incense for her father. She didnt want Jing Rui to stay here any longer.
Even though Jiang Manshu had given birth to her, Shuyin had no feelings for her. From the day she faked her death, she was already dead in Shuyins heart.
Shuyin took Jing Ruis hand and said softly,Rui, lets go home. I dont like it here.
Jing Rui turned around and looked at Shuyins calm face. He held her hand and said,Alright, lets go home. Ill listen to you.
As he spoke, he walked out of the vi with Shuyin side by side. Around the vi, there were many Men in ck lying on the ground. Han Feng had already taken care of Jiang Manshus men with his men.
Watching the two of them walk out side by side, Jiang Manshus expression turned ugly.
Li Jing, who had been holding her arm affectionately, immediately let go and sat down on the sofa in the living room. She sneered,The two of them are very close. You, as a mother, cant even bepared to a dog!
Jiang Manshu suddenly turned around and said angrily,Li Jing, Im your mother too! How can you speak to your own mother like that!
Did I say something wrong? Shuyin doesnt even treat you as her mother. Shes treating you like air!
Li Zhis beautiful face revealed a smile that seemed to be able to turn all living beings upside down.
Oh, I forgot to tell you that Ive never treated you as my mother! Jiang Manshu, you dont deserve to be a mother! If you want to be a mother, I suggest that you put away your little thoughts first. If you keep thinking about using your daughter for profit, youll be hated by her one day.
I was with Shucheng mountain for you and your father! Its true that I didnt raise you, but thats because your father didnt allow me to do so. When have I ever used you for profit?
Jiang Manshu felt that she had been wronged. Both of her daughters did not acknowledge her. The elder daughter was even more arrogant than the second daughter, and her words were even more unpleasant. She could not help but defend herself.
Li Jing didnt want to waste any more time talking to her. She stood up and walked out.Let me know if theres any progress. I will cooperate with you regarding Shuyin and Jing Rui. Youd better not y any tricks, or I wont be able to exin to my father if you die a terrible death.
Jiang Manshu watched as her two daughters left, leaving her alone in the empty vi. She was so angry that she smashed all the cups in the house!
After she was done, she returned to her usual elegant and calm appearance.
She contacted her manager and was ready to start filming again. She hated the feeling of having nothing.
After hiding for ten years, her fate had once been in Li Jings fathers hands. Now that she could finally call the shots, she wanted to stand on the stage again and regain her glory.
Family Jing was too powerful and she would never do it herself. If she did, she would let her two daughters do it.
She had lost a lot of people today, so she had to ask the Li family to make up for it.
Jing Rui went back to A city with Shuyin. They did not talk much on the way back.
Jing Rui held Shuyins hand tightly and sighed in his heart. Some things, once done, would be known. It seemed impossible to hide it from Shuyin for the rest of his life.
He didnt know what Jiang Manshu had told Shuyin, but no one knew the truth of Shucheng Shans death better than him.
Instead of letting Jiang Manshu mislead Shuyin, it was better to let him tell her the truth.
Shuyin didnt say a word until they got home.
Jing Rui had so many things to say, but he didnt know where to start. First, it was the Shucheng mountain incident, and then the Lou family made trouble and vowed that he would marry Lou ruofu.
It would be a wonder if Shuyin was happy.
Yinyin,e with me. Ill show you something.
Jing Rui took Shuyins hand and led her to the study.
He took out a letter and handed it to Shu Yin. He said softly,This is your Fathers will for you. He left it for you before he died.
Shu Yin was shocked and looked up at Jing Rui in disbelief.
She had never expected that Jing Rui would reveal the matter to her so directly.
Shuyin took the letter and looked at the slightly yellowed paper, but she didnt open it immediately.
She raised her head and looked into Jing Ruis deep eyes.Did you really kill him?
Jing Rui had lived for 20 years and had rarely regretted his actions. But when he saw that Shuyin was trembling, even though she looked calm, he finally regretted it.
Some peoples lives, even if they deserved to die, should not be taken personally.
The only thing he was d about now was that Shu Chengshan was more farsighted than him. He refused to let him do it, but chose to do it himself.
He might not have been a perfect father, but deep down, he was always thinking for his daughter.
Jing Rui closed his eyes and said in a low voice,Yinyin, I hadnt met you at that time and I hadnt fallen in love with you, so ...
Why did you kill him?
Shu Yin believed that Jing Rui would not kill someone for no reason.
Moreover, if what Jiang Manshu said about the time of Shucheng Shans death was true, then she was still working for Jing Rui at that time. She was considered to have contributed to him, and Jing Rui had no reason to kill her father.
ording to Jing Ruis style of doing things, he had always been tolerant of the rtives of his subordinates.
Jing Rui only needed one sentence to calm Shuyin down.He wanted to kill me.
Jing Rui paused.But, Yinyin, I didnt kill Shucheng Shan. Hemitted suicide. Although I forced him, he chose tomit suicide so that you wouldnt hate me.
Suicide?!
Shuyin had not expected this to happen. She had been misled by Jiang Manshu and really thought that Jing Rui had killed Shucheng.
Shuyin trusted Jing Rui more than Jiang Manshu.
She had trusted him for a long time, so even if Jing Rui lied to her, she would still believe him easily.
But Shuyin could feel that Jing Rui was not lying to her this time.
If he really intended to deceive them, he just had to deny that he had killed Shucheng mountain.
After all, Jiang Manshu did not have any evidence at all. She was just making things up with her mouth.
Shuyin couldnt imagine why Jing Rui would be involved with Shucheng mountain.
Jing Rui knew that Shuyin must be confused, so he told her everything, including how he had asked Shu Chengshan to hypnotize Jing Zhi to recover his memory.He once asked me to marry you, but I rejected him. Now that I think about it, I still regret it. I should have agreed.
However, Shuyins focus wasnt on this. She frowned and asked in disbelief,Shu Chengshan is a top killer? He epted the order to kill you?
Chapter 1232
Chapter 1232: Unforgivable
Trantor: 549690339
In Shuyins impression, her father was a very kind man who loved to coax his wife and tease his daughter. His biggest hobby was to take care of flowers and nts, so how could he be an assassin?
And he was a top-tier assassin!
There were less than ten top assassins in the world, and all of them had blood on their hands and had killed countless people!
Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were not top killers because they were too young. It had only been two or three years since they had finished their training. The number of people they had killed was far less than the minimum standard of top killers.
Yes, he is a famous hypnotist in the industry. He is very skilled and very expensive, Jing Rui said with certainty. He probably killed me for the reward. We didnt know each other before. The only reason I know so much about him is because I found out about you when I asked you to take care of Jing Zhi.
Shuyins fingers that were holding the letter were trembling slightly.When did he start being an assassin?
Jing Rui took her hand and said softly,He was before you were born, but he wasnt as famous as he was in theter stages. Hes the worlds one and only hypnotist killer. His hypnotism skills are unparalleled, and those with weak willpower only need a few seconds to be hypnotized.
Shuyin suddenlyughed, but there was no trace of a smile in her eyes. Herughter was filled with sadness.
Jing Rui couldnt help but hold her in his arms and stroke her back. He said,Yinyin, dont be like this. I didnt want to tell you about this, but I have to now. Its okay, it doesnt matter if youre an assassin. Your father actually loves you, dont hate him.
Dont hate me. If I did something wrong, you can hit me or scold me, but under the circumstances, I had to kill him. Otherwise, he would have taken the job and killed me in the dark. To be honest, Im very afraid of his hypnotism. I cant leave such a big hidden danger behind.
Shuyin wanted to cry, but she realized that she couldnt shed a single tear.
She allowed Jing Rui to hug her, but she did not return the hug.
She stoppedughing and said in a hoarse voice,I always thought that I had been living in a nightmare ever since I was eight years old. It turns out that Ive been living in a nightmare even before I was eight years old.
She didnt mind that Shu Chengshan was a killer. She just felt that she had been deceived for too many years!
Killing people was not a big deal in her eyes. People died every day in the Research Institute, but she would not kill people easily.
It was only today that she finally knew the true colors of her parents. After being deceived for so long, her heart was in so much pain that it could not be any worse. It was as if her entire person had been torn apart!
It turned out that her parents were not dead!
Jiang Manshu was alive!
Shucheng mountain was also alive!
If he had not tried to kill Jing Rui, he would still be alive!
They were living a carefree life outside and could go wherever they wanted to go, but they sent her to hell! She had never left the Research Institute in the past ten years!
No wonder they didnt get married and no wonder her parents rarely took her out to y. It turned out that both of them had huge secrets!
If that was the case, why did he give birth to her?
If Jing Rui had not told her, she would still have been kept in the dark. She would not have known why she had been abandoned and why she had gone to hell despite being so obedient.
But in this way, it made sense why Shu Chengshan and Lucas knew each other and became good friends!
Many assassins had connections with the people in the Research Institute. Shu Chengshans hypnotism might not be entirely due to the hypnotism, but it was likely that Lucas had provided him with a hypnotic virus.
Shuyin had suffered quite a bit in the past two days. She thought that her mental strength was outstanding and that she wasnt afraid of any storm, but the feeling of living in hypocrisy and lies since childhood was too terrible!
She had once doubted some of her childhood memories, but now it seemed that the good memories she had thought of might not have existed!
A highly-skilled hypnotist could really prate into a persons heart and change her memory.
Yinyin, dont think too much.
Jing Rui could tell what Shuyin was thinking, but he still told her his opinion on Shucheng mountain.
I think Shu Chengshan was forced to send you to the Research Institute. He has too many enemies, and youre too young. He thought your mother had died and wanted to avenge her. He didnt have the extra energy to take care of you, so he sent you to the Research Institute. Its heavily guarded and there are viruses everywhere. No one would go to that ce to kill you.
When he found out that I was going to use him to hypnotize Jing Zhi, he only asked for one thing, and that was for me to promise to protect you for the rest of my life. Hes guilty, and he loves you. The thing he regrets the most in his life is handing you over to Lucas.
In Shuyins opinion, these words were all so fragile that they couldnt even withstand a single blow.
She still couldnt forgive him.
No one knew how much pain she had to endure to survive.
Her only motivation to live on back then was to grow up, to be stronger, and to kill Lucas, to kill all those people who injected the virus into her and made her suffer!
When she heard from Lucas that her parents had passed away, she had been particrly disappointed.
This was because she would not be able to stand in front of them and ask them why they had abandoned her. She would also not be able to let them know how outstanding their daughter was.
Shuyin replied coldly,he doesnt love me. He loves that woman and himself. Since you wanted to kill him, he knew that he would not be able to live no matter what. He also thought that Jiang Manshu was dead, so all the benefits fell on my head! If hes so good at killing and loves me so much, why didnt he just kill Lucas?
The Research Institute and the base are under strict management, but how did you manage to get so many people to protect and take care of Jing Zhi?
Lucas is a madman, I dont believe he doesnt know! After he threw me to Lucas, he never cared about my life or death! Otherwise, why would Lucas use me as an experiment? hes not afraid that I wont be able to answer to him if I die.
At the very least, a father should send letters to his daughter every once in a while, right?
Most people couldnt enter and leave the Research Institute freely, but there were still a few people who had ess, such as Jing Zhi, the staff who were purchasing items, and the senior executives of the Research Institute, like Peter.
Shuyins words hit the nail on the head, and even Jing Rui could not refute her.
But it didnt matter to Jing Rui whether Shuyin hated Shucheng mountain or not, as long as she didn t.
Chapter 1233
Chapter 1233: Trust
Trantor: 549690339
In fact, the more Shuyin hated Shucheng Shan, the happier Jing Rui should be, because this way, the fact that he forced Shucheng Shan tomit suicide would not be a big problem in Shuyins heart.
However, he didnt want Shuyin to feel that his father didnt like him because of his selfishness.
Jing Rui did not know about other times, but at least before Shucheng Shans death, he had been thinking about his daughter.
He regretted pushing his daughter into the fire pit.
Shuyin unfolded the letter and began to read Shu Chengshansst words with a calm expression.
Thest words were very long. On a piece of A4 paper, it was densely covered with small words.
The handwriting was in the small regr script that Shu Yin was familiar with. When she was young, Shu Chengshan taught her how to write. Even after ten years, she still remembered his handwriting.
In hisst words, Shu Chengshan did not mention that he had sent Shuyin to the Research Institute, nor did he apologize to his daughter. He emphasized the confrontation between him and Jing Rui, and the cause of his death.
He had clearly written in the letter that he had chosen tomit suicide of his own ord.
As a killer, it was normal for him to fail his mission and be killed by the target. But he did not need Jing Rui to do it, because he could preserve his dignity bymitting suicide.
He told her what he and Jing Rui had agreed on. He would help Jing Zhi recover his memory, and Jing Rui would protect her for the rest of her life.
He had also given all his property to Jing Rui and asked him to pass it to him.
If it had been someone else, he would have been worried, but Jing Rui had a good reputation. He trusted Jing Ruis character, and that was why he had given him such a huge amount of assets.
If possible, he hoped that Shuyin could work harder, charm Jing Rui, marry him, be the youngdy of family Jing, and live the best life.
Shuyins expression remained calm after she finished reading thest words.
He was not touched by Shu Chengshan, nor was he angry about his death.
She even felt like she was reading thest words of an unimportant person, and there were no waves in her heart.
Family ties had long died in Shuyins hands!
If Shu Chengshan was still alive, Shu Yin would never acknowledge him.
She handed the letter to Jing Rui and said,Keep it. It might be useful in the future. If Jiang Manshues to bother you again, give her this letter and she should be able to shut up!
Shuyin was expressionless, and Jing Rui could not guess what she was thinking. He could only keep the letter and take her downstairs for dinner.
Shu Yin, who usually had a good appetite, only ate a little this time. She only had one chicken wing, which was her favorite.
Im not eating. Im going back to my room to lie down for a while.
Shuyin said, then got up and went upstairs.
Jing Rui did not force her. He watched her go upstairs calmly, but his heart ached.
Her parents were both wearing masks, and even he had never told her the truth. Shuyins current strength and calmness were all an act.
Jing Rui put down his chopsticks, took a shower and went into the bedroom.
The room was dark and the lights were not turned on. Jing Rui turned on the floor light, walked to the bed andy down, then held Shuyin in his arms.
Yinyin, I didnt mean to hide it from you. I was afraid that you would leave me if I told you.
Shuyiny quietly in his arms. She didnt speak or move. She was like a puppet without a soul. She was numb and stiff.
Dont misunderstand me. When I first came to you for a deal, I didnt know Shucheng Shan. After the Research Institute copsed, I protected you out of my promise to him, but now Im with you, not because of him.
In my heart, you two have no connection. My feelings for you will not change because of Shucheng Shans death. I was going crazy when I couldnt find you two days ago. I was afraid that something might have happened to you. I was afraid that you would find out the truth, hate me, and leave.
Ive already settled the Lou familys matter. I heard the recording on your phone. Dont believe the nonsense that others are saying. Just believe me. We will make our own decisions. The Lou family has no right to interfere.
Jing Rui talked a lot. He was a man of few words and rarely talked as much as he did now.
Because he didnt know which sentence Shuyin would want to hear, nor which sentence would make her feel at ease, he decided to tell her everything that Shuyin might have misunderstood.
After a long while, Shuyin asked him softly,can I still trust you?
She was a little scared. Sometimes, the more you trusted someone, the more serious the injury would be.
She had never trusted anyone before, but after working for Jing Rui for two years and getting familiar with his style and personality, she started to trust him.
However, she had no idea that Shucheng Shan had died in his hands.
She didnt dare to imagine if there were many other things that she had been deceived about.
She trusted Jing Rui so much that he could do whatever he wanted.
Shuyin had fallen in love with Jing Rui because of her admiration for his charisma. She had submitted to a man like him from the bottom of her heart. She believed in his decisions and obeyed all his arrangements.
Whenever she had her own thoughts, she would always be proven wrong if she disagreed with Jing Rui.
In the two years that they had worked together, Shuyin had seen the true charm of a man. She had let her know that she was really just a frog at the bottom of the well.
So, she wanted to follow Jing Rui after they left the Research Institute.
It was not until she realized that Jing Rui was nning to make arrangements for her life and even control everything about her that she had the intention to resist.
Later, when Jing Rui pursued her, she actually agreed without making things difficult for Jing Rui.
It wasnt that she wanted to agree so quickly, but she trusted him, admired him, and loved him from the bottom of her heart. No one in the world couldpare to him.
He said that he would make her happy in the future, and she firmly believed it without any doubt.
If her trust in Jing Ruipletely copsed, she would copse as well.
Shuyin couldnt bear such an oue.
To Shuyin, it didnt matter how Shucheng Shan died or whether Jiang Manshu was alive or dead. Ten years of hatred couldnt be dissipated overnight.
What she cared about the most was what she had now, her Jing Rui.
Her feelings for her parents had long been worn out, but her feelings for Jing Rui had umted over the years.
She used to feel happy and warm when Jing Rui held her. Why did she only feel cold when she was in his arms?
Yinyin, believe me. Of course, you have to believe me. You have to believe me!
Jing Rui lifted Shu Yins chin and made her look at him.
This is the only thing Ive hidden from you. Ive never deliberately hidden anything else from you. You should know that its easy for me to lie to you about the Shucheng mountain incident!
I can even push the me on Lucas. After all, you were already sure that he killed the man. I have a way to make Lucas admit that he did it.
But I didn t. After you started to suspect me, I chose to be honest with you! Ive concealed this matter, but Im not lying.

In fact, the more Shuyin hated Shucheng Shan, the happier Jing Rui should be, because this way, the fact that he forced Shucheng Shan tomit suicide would not be a big problem in Shuyins heart.
However, he didnt want Shuyin to feel that his father didnt like him because of his selfishness.
Jing Rui did not know about other times, but at least before Shucheng Shans death, he had been thinking about his daughter.
He regretted pushing his daughter into the fire pit.
Shuyin unfolded the letter and began to read Shu Chengshansst words with a calm expression.
Thest words were very long. On a piece of A4 paper, it was densely covered with small words.
The handwriting was in the small regr script that Shu Yin was familiar with. When she was young, Shu Chengshan taught her how to write. Even after ten years, she still remembered his handwriting.
In hisst words, Shu Chengshan did not mention that he had sent Shuyin to the Research Institute, nor did he apologize to his daughter. He emphasized the confrontation between him and Jing Rui, and the cause of his death.
He had clearly written in the letter that he had chosen tomit suicide of his own ord.
As a killer, it was normal for him to fail his mission and be killed by the target. But he did not need Jing Rui to do it, because he could preserve his dignity bymitting suicide.
He told her what he and Jing Rui had agreed on. He would help Jing Zhi recover his memory, and Jing Rui would protect her for the rest of her life.
He had also given all his property to Jing Rui and asked him to pass it to him.
If it had been someone else, he would have been worried, but Jing Rui had a good reputation. He trusted Jing Ruis character, and that was why he had given him such a huge amount of assets.
If possible, he hoped that Shuyin could work harder, charm Jing Rui, marry him, be the youngdy of family Jing, and live the best life.
Shuyins expression remained calm after she finished reading thest words.
He was not touched by Shu Chengshan, nor was he angry about his death.
She even felt like she was reading thest words of an unimportant person, and there were no waves in her heart.
Family ties had long died in Shuyins hands!
If Shu Chengshan was still alive, Shu Yin would never acknowledge him.
She handed the letter to Jing Rui and said,Keep it. It might be useful in the future. If Jiang Manshues to bother you again, give her this letter and she should be able to shut up!
Shuyin was expressionless, and Jing Rui could not guess what she was thinking. He could only keep the letter and take her downstairs for dinner.
Shu Yin, who usually had a good appetite, only ate a little this time. She only had one chicken wing, which was her favorite.
Im not eating. Im going back to my room to lie down for a while.
Shuyin said, then got up and went upstairs.
Jing Rui did not force her. He watched her go upstairs calmly, but his heart ached.
Her parents were both wearing masks, and even he had never told her the truth. Shuyins current strength and calmness were all an act.
Jing Rui put down his chopsticks, took a shower and went into the bedroom.
The room was dark and the lights were not turned on. Jing Rui turned on the floor light, walked to the bed andy down, then held Shuyin in his arms.
Yinyin, I didnt mean to hide it from you. I was afraid that you would leave me if I told you.
Shuyiny quietly in his arms. She didnt speak or move. She was like a puppet without a soul. She was numb and stiff.
Dont misunderstand me. When I first came to you for a deal, I didnt know Shucheng Shan. After the Research Institute copsed, I protected you out of my promise to him, but now Im with you, not because of him.
In my heart, you two have no connection. My feelings for you will not change because of Shucheng Shans death. I was going crazy when I couldnt find you two days ago. I was afraid that something might have happened to you. I was afraid that you would find out the truth, hate me, and leave.
Ive already settled the Lou familys matter. I heard the recording on your phone. Dont believe the nonsense that others are saying. Just believe me. We will make our own decisions. The Lou family has no right to interfere.
Jing Rui talked a lot. He was a man of few words and rarely talked as much as he did now.
Because he didnt know which sentence Shuyin would want to hear, nor which sentence would make her feel at ease, he decided to tell her everything that Shuyin might have misunderstood.
After a long while, Shuyin asked him softly,can I still trust you?
She was a little scared. Sometimes, the more you trusted someone, the more serious the injury would be.
She had never trusted anyone before, but after working for Jing Rui for two years and getting familiar with his style and personality, she started to trust him.
However, she had no idea that Shucheng Shan had died in his hands.
She didnt dare to imagine if there were many other things that she had been deceived about.
She trusted Jing Rui so much that he could do whatever he wanted.
Shuyin had fallen in love with Jing Rui because of her admiration for his charisma. She had submitted to a man like him from the bottom of her heart. She believed in his decisions and obeyed all his arrangements.
Whenever she had her own thoughts, she would always be proven wrong if she disagreed with Jing Rui.
In the two years that they had worked together, Shuyin had seen the true charm of a man. She had let her know that she was really just a frog at the bottom of the well.
So, she wanted to follow Jing Rui after they left the Research Institute.
It was not until she realized that Jing Rui was nning to make arrangements for her life and even control everything about her that she had the intention to resist.
Later, when Jing Rui pursued her, she actually agreed without making things difficult for Jing Rui.
It wasnt that she wanted to agree so quickly, but she trusted him, admired him, and loved him from the bottom of her heart. No one in the world couldpare to him.
He said that he would make her happy in the future, and she firmly believed it without any doubt.
If her trust in Jing Ruipletely copsed, she would copse as well.
Shuyin couldnt bear such an oue.
To Shuyin, it didnt matter how Shucheng Shan died or whether Jiang Manshu was alive or dead. Ten years of hatred couldnt be dissipated overnight.
What she cared about the most was what she had now, her Jing Rui.
Her feelings for her parents had long been worn out, but her feelings for Jing Rui had umted over the years.
She used to feel happy and warm when Jing Rui held her. Why did she only feel cold when she was in his arms?
Yinyin, believe me. Of course, you have to believe me. You have to believe me!
Jing Rui lifted Shu Yins chin and made her look at him.
This is the only thing Ive hidden from you. Ive never deliberately hidden anything else from you. You should know that its easy for me to lie to you about the Shucheng mountain incident!
I can even push the me on Lucas. After all, you were already sure that he killed the man. I have a way to make Lucas admit that he did it.
But I didn t. After you started to suspect me, I chose to be honest with you! Ive concealed this matter, but Im not lying.

Chapter 1235: Kneeling down
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was so upset by his younger brother and sister that he couldnt even eat. Shuyin didnt know that. She took a taxi to school and was in a bad mood.
She used to think that the road to school was very short, and it would only take her a few words with Jing Rui.
But today, she felt that it was a little far. She tried to chat with the driver and realized that they were only halfway there when the conversation ended.
Perhaps, it wasnt a path to school, but a path to the heart.
It had only been a short time, but she was already so attached to Jing Rui?
Shuyin shook her head with a bitter smile. She felt that she was bing more and more like those girls in TV dramas, who couldnt live without love every day.
Fortunately, when she arrived at school, she buried herself in her books and all her emotions were suppressed.
Zheng yuluo had also heard about the tension between family Jing and family Lou. She had also heard from Zheng Jing that Shuyin had gone missing.
She was a little surprised to see Shuyin in the library today. Just as she was about to walk over and say hello to Shuyin, she was suddenly blocked by someone.
The person who stopped her was a charming and enchanting woman. She looked very young, but the mature charm and unique femininity on her body made Zheng yuluo, who was a young peach, feel inferior.
In particr, this womans facial features were delicate and beautiful beyond recognition. Her eyes were full of tears, and she looked like she wanted to say something, but she couldn t. It made people want to hold her in their arms andfort her.
Fortunately, Zheng yuluo herself was also a crybaby. If they were topare who was more pitiful, Zheng yuluo would probably be better.
That was why she was immune to such tricks.
Miss Zheng yuluo, right?
As soon as the woman opened her mouth, a melodious voice came out. With her appearance and good voice, a simple sentence had already attracted many peoples attention.
It was very quiet in the library, and her melodious voice could be heard from far away.
Zheng yuluo looked at the unfamiliar woman and hesitated for a while before nodding and saying softly,I am.
Ever since she had been pushed into theke, she had be very wary of strangers, afraid that she would lose her life again.
Seeing that Zheng yuluo didnt ask who she was or what she wanted, the woman couldnt help but look at her deeply.
It was said that the sisters of the Zheng family had a lot of wicked ideas, and the sister was as innocent as a piece of white paper. It seemed that this was not true.
Yuluo, Im your sister ruofu. Dont you remember me? she said to Zheng yuluo with red eyes. Lou Ziyi is my brother!
Lou ruofu?
Zheng yuluos eyes widened. She had seen Lou ruofu when she was young, but she had changed so much!
She used to think that the Lou sisters were average looking, but the men in the Lou family were all handsome, especially Lou Ziling, who had the most entric temper. He was unbelievably beautiful since he was young. Zheng Yuwei had oncemented that if Lou Ziling was a few years older, she would go after him.
When did Lou ruofu be so beautiful that she could topple a nation?
In view of her sisters good rtionship with Lou Ziyi, and Lou ruofu was Lou Ziyis sister, Zheng yuluos wariness was quickly lowered.
She whispered to Lou ruofu,sister ruofu, this is the library. Chatting is not allowed. If you have something to say, lets go outside and talk!
Zheng yuluo was still standing beside a table in the library. It was indeed inappropriate for the two of them to stand there and talk.
However, Lou ruofu didnt seem to notice anything wrong.
With tears in her beautiful eyes, she slowly knelt down in front of Zheng yuluo in front of the entire library.
Zheng Yuxia was scared out of her wits!
No one had ever knelt down before her in her life!
In this day and age, everyone had gold under their knees and would not kneel easily. As the eldest daughter of the Lou family, Lou ruofu suddenly knelt down to herself, making Zheng yuluo panic.
Zheng yuluo couldnt care less about whether she could speak loudly in the library. She hurriedly went to help Lou ruofu.Sister, dont be like this, lets talk this out! Quickly get up!
Lou ruofu didnt move. She was still kneeling on the ground.
She was wearing a crimsonce dress that reached her knees today. When she knelt on the ground, the dress could only wrap around her thighs and not her knees. The people around her felt that her knees were in pain.
However, she didnt seem to know what pain was. She knelt on the cold marble floor and said with red eyes,Sister, please help me and the Lou family. Otherwise, Ill keep kneeling here and never get up!
Hundreds of pairs of eyes around them were dumbfounded as they watched this scene. Zheng yuluo was anxious to death!
Usually, there would be teachers and students in charge of the library. If anyone spoke loudly or made a fuss, they would be rudely chased out. Why was no one doing anything today?
Zheng yuluo had no idea that the people in the library had been bribed by the Lou family. They had deliberately ignored it.
Although Zheng yuluo was a little naive and not good at scheming, she still had a sense of crisis. She was not stupid and would not agree to Lou ruofus request rashly.
In terms of influence and power, the Zheng family couldnt evenpare to the Lou family in city A. How could he help?
And Zheng yuluo knew what she was capable of. She felt that the so-called help should be Zheng Jings help.
It was already good enough that she didnt cause trouble for her father. How could she help him with this job?
He was indeed the director of the Public Security Bureau, but the Public Security Bureau was not run by him alone. There were many eyes in the entire A city watching him!
Sister, can we talk outside? Although my strength is weak, as long as I can help, I will definitely help you! Im friends with Ziyi, how am I supposed to face him in the future if you do this?
Lou ruofu was still kneeling and had no intention of getting up.
Because only by kneeling could she exert the greatest psychological pressure on Zheng yuluo.
Sister yuluo, its all my fault. I identally told my brother something and he went to have a heart-to-heart talk with miss Shuyin. Maybe she misunderstood something. Now our cooperation with family Jing has beenpletely cut off, and our family is in danger! I heard that Shuyin isnt close to anyone but you. I beg you to help put in a good word for her on Ziyis ount! I beg her to be magnanimous and let the Lou family off!
Shuyin was a well-known name in the school, but no one knew that she had anything to do with family Jing. They only knew that she seemed to be a sugar daddy.
When Lou ruofu mentioned her name, everyones eyes turned to Shuyin.
Even Zheng yuluo herself looked at Shu Yin in shock.

Chapter 1236: Kneeling in vain
Trantor: 549690339
There were some who didnt know who Shuyin was, and there were also kind people who immediately pointed at Shuyin.
Now, there was no one in the library who didnt know Shuyin.
However, Shu Yin and the flustered Zheng yuluo formed a strong contrast. It was as if she didnt hear anything, and she didnt care about everyones gaze at all. She just sat in her seat and read quietly.
The tables in the library of X University were for four, but there was no one around the table she was sitting at. She was the only one.
The library was dead silent.
Shuyin didnt move. She didnt look at Lou ruofu and Zheng yuluo, who were both kneeling. Her cold attitude made Zheng yuluo feel embarrassed to plead with her.
Moreover, if she were to seriously consider it, she really wasnt close to Shuyin to the point where she could plead for her.
If this person had been Jing Zhi, she might have asked. After all, she had a different rtionship with Jing Zhi.
But Shuyin ...
She had always been a cold person, and the two of them could only be considered acquaintances who nodded at each other. She had no right to make Shuyinpromise for the Lou family.
Besides, Zheng yuluo was not stupid. The Lou family must have made a big mistake to make the once high and mighty miss of the Lou family kneel down to her.
It was better for her not to get involved in this kind of thing.
Angering Shuyin was secondary. She wasnt the type to seek revenge for the smallest grievance, and was more tolerant. But if she annoyed Jing Rui and Jing Zhi, Zheng yuluo felt that she would not be able to live a day in A city.
The situation was extremely awkward. Zheng yuluo looked at Lou ruofu, who was kneeling in front of her, and broke the deadlock.Sister, Shuyin and I are just ordinary ssmates. If theres any misunderstanding between you two, why dont you clear it up face to face?
Zheng yuluo thought that Lou ruofu didnt know Shuyin, so she reminded her tactfully,Shuyins in the library too. If its a small matter, I think shell understand if you exin it clearly and apologize.
In other words, if it was a big matter and the Lou family had gone too far, it was normal for them not to understand.
In fact, Lou ruofu had seen all sorts of photos of Shuyin a long time ago. She only came because she knew Shuyin was here.
Although she was asking Zheng yuluo for help, it was actually for Shuyins sake.
What she didnt expect was that Shuyin didnt even give Zheng yuluo any face. Didnt they say that Zheng yuluo was Jing Zhis love?
If Shuyin wanted to marry into family Jing, she had to at least please Jing Ruis brother, Jing Zhi.
Although the two brothers didnt have the same parents, they had been closer than real brothers since they were young. Jing Zhi should have a say in whether Shuyin could marry into family Jing.
If Jing Zhi knew Lou ruofus thoughts, he would have rolled his eyes.
He didnt have any say in this matter, as Shuyin had all the right to speak! Jing Rui didnt even want to speak. As his brother, he had been reduced to a nanny.
Lou ruofu started to doubt Zheng yuluos position in Jing Zhis heart. However, she didnt have a better candidate, so she could only hold on to Zheng yuluo.
She continued to cry to Zheng yuluo, but no matter how embarrassed Zheng yuluo felt, she refused to help the Lou family.
She couldnt embarrass Shuyin just because she felt embarrassed, right?
Shu Yin didnt owe her anything, nor had she offended her. Zheng yuluo couldnt do something like that.
How could the students in the library be in the mood to study at this moment? they were all watching the show with their eyes wide open and ears perked up! Such a big piece of gossip, to be able to witness it live, it would be the best topic to talk about in front of friends in the future!
The originally quiet library started to be filled with whispers. Later on, the voices of discussion grew louder and louder, so noisy that Shuyins head was buzzing.
She closed her book, stood up, and walked out of the library with her bag.
She left too quickly, as if she waspletely out of it, which made everyone a little dumbfounded.
Shuyin really doesnt y by the rules! Wasnt he just a poor student who was financially supported by a rich man? Whats with the smug look!
Its better to give an echo to that beautiful woman whos kneeling there. Shes so moving and kneeling there, it makes my heart ache!
This beauty must be from the Lou family. Thats a rich and powerful family. Shes a proper youngdy!
The sounds of discussion rose and fell, but Shuyin couldnt hear them at all. She had already walked out.
Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, felt a little apologetic. She knew Shuyins true identity. She also knew that not only was she beautiful, but she also had real talent. It was really inexcusable for her to be attacked so maliciously.
Zheng yuluo tried her best to persuade Lou ruofu and finally pulled her up.
Lou ruofu didnt want to kneel at first. She was such a proud person. How could she easily bow down to others?
Moreover, she had knelt down in front of Zheng yuluo today, but she was not willing to help. She had knelt for nothing!
Lou ruofu affectionately called her sister yuluo and walked out hand in hand with her. A trace of ruthlessness shed in her beautiful eyes.
Zheng yuluo thought that she was seeing things and did not take this small look seriously at all.
Ive embarrassed myself in front of you today, but I really have no other choice. I can onlye and beg you. I hope I didnt cause you any trouble.
Lou ruofus face was apologetic. She was born beautiful, and her every move was charming. At this moment, her red eyes were fragile and helpless, and men would immediately go crazy for her.
Even Zheng yuluo, a girl, wanted to exim that she was a natural beauty.
Sister, dont me me for being useless. Actually, Shuyin and I cant even be considered friends. We just greet each other when we meet in school. I might not be able to help you much.
Zheng yuluo also looked apologetic, but like Lou ruofu, she didnt really feel guilty.
Lou ruofus actions were inappropriate and had forced her into a desperate situation.
How can I me you? I was too impatient. Our family is in a state of emergency, and Shuyin is making my big brothers face itch every day. Our family is in aplete mess now. I think there might be some misunderstanding between us. She might not be willing to see me, so I would like to ask you to pass on the message.
Lou ruofu said nicely, but in fact, she was very dissatisfied with Zheng yuluos approach.
Even if she and Shuyin were just ordinary friends, she should still help her put in a good word!
Zheng yuluo didnt even try. Shu Yin was just beside her, but she didnt even help to ask. Her heart was too ck and cold!
Zheng yuluo would actually agree to it if she conveyed the message in private, but she couldnt go to Shuyin and plead for the Lou family in front of everyone.
Because these were twopletely different things.
Whether it worked or not, no one would know about it and it wouldnt affect Shuyins reputation. This was the best solution.
Chapter 1237
Chapter 1237: Who are you taking home?
Trantor: 549690339
Lou ruofu held Zheng yuluos hand and talked to her for a long time. She kept hinting that Lou Ziyi used to take care of her and was so good to her. He even got hurt because of her. She should repay him.
She only left after Zheng yuluo agreed to help ask Shuyin.
Zheng yuluo had finally sent away a God of gue, but a bitter smile appeared on her lips.
There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. As long as you ate it, even if you didnt pay, you would still have to pay for something else.
She used to think that her friendship with Lou Ziyi was worth remembering. She cherished Lou Ziyi as a friend and was extremely grateful for his careful care and gentleness.
At that time, she felt as if a pie had fallen from the sky andnded on her head. She was happy and grateful.
It turned out that the pie also needed to be paid!
Zheng yuluo summoned up her courage and went to find Shu Yin.Shuyin, Im here for the Lou family. You ...
Before she could finish, Shu Yin interrupted her,Lou ruofu and her brother asked me to leave Jing Rui and the Jing family, and Lou ruofu married Jing Rui herself. Did you know about this?
The news was like a bolt of lightning, striking Zheng yuluo half-dizzy!
Why didnt Lou ruofu say a word about such a big matter?
She actually said it was a misunderstanding!
Could it be a misunderstanding whether or not she was going to marry Jing Rui?
It was barely eptable for others to make such a mistake, but how could the Lou family have such a misunderstanding with Shuyin!
Shuyin was already engaged to Jing Rui and would definitely be his wife in the future. Why did the Lou family want to interfere?
No wonder Shuyinpletely ignored Lou ruofu today!
If she wanted to snatch her husband away from her, Shuyin wouldnt even bother.
Zheng yuluo was d that she had not agreed to Lou ruofus request.
Im sorry, Shuyin. I didnt know it was such a big deal and thought it was a small one. She begged me for a long time and I owe her brother Lou Ziyi a favor, so I could only help her ande to you to ask for an answer.
Its fine, this isnt your fault. Speaking of which, it was me who caused this. Otherwise, you wouldnt have been so troubled today. However, I wont give in on this matter. The Lou family should just give up on this idea!
Shu Yin made it clear that there was no room for discussion. Zheng yuluo also understood that she did not have to say anything.
However, this way, she would have an exnation for Lou ruofu.
In fact, she didnt feelfortable in her heart. She always felt that she was being used by Lou ruofu!
She was friends with Lou Ziyi, but they were no longer in contact. She could no longer be considered friends with Lou ruofu. Why did she think that she would help her and not Shuyin?
If the Lou family really wanted Lou ruofu to marry into the Jing family, she would help Shuyin fight for it.
Zheng yuluo wanted to ask what was going on, but she felt that she should not say too much. Shuyin looked very calm andposed. She didnt look like a fianc who was going to marry someone else.
However, if such a thing happened to Zheng yuluo, regardless of whether it was true or not, she would probably lose control as long as she saw Lou ruofu.
She valued rtionships too much. Jing Zhi was a man who was more important than her life. Previously, Xiao Ling only said that Jing Zhi liked her and didnt say that he would marry her. Zheng yuluo was already on the verge of breaking down. If she heard that Jing Zhi was going to marry someone else, she would definitely break down.
She didnt know how Shuyin did it, but she had such a strong mental fortitude that she felt that even if the sky fell down now, Shuyin wouldnt even frown.
Zheng yuluo went to ss with a sigh, but she didnt know that the reason Shuyin could be so calm today wasnt because she was born so calm. It was because her sky had already copsed in the past ten years!
She had also broken down and despaired before. She had also been weak more than once.
However, after being in despair so many times, she had gotten used to it, adapted to it, and was immune to it.
Their living environments werepletely different, resulting in twopletely different personalities. One was delicate and soft, while the other was tough and sharp.
From Shuyins point of view, the Lou familys matter wasnt a major earth-shattering event. Even Lou Zirong, who had been looking for trouble, had been taught a lesson by her. That was why Lou ruofu was so afraid today and didnt dare to stand in front of her and say a word!
Lou ruofu dared to covet her man. Shuyin was feeling uneasy because of Jiang Manshu and Li Jings appearance today. Otherwise, she might have given Lou ruofu a virus to try.
After the afternoon sses were over, Zheng yuluo packed her things and went home.
She walked out of the school and suddenly saw a very familiar sports car parked by the side of the road. The person sitting inside was even more familiar to her.
She suddenly felt an irrepressible joy in her heart!
Jing Zhi came to see her?
Was he not angry anymore?
She walked quickly towards Jing Zhi, but before she could reach him, Jing Zhi waved at another man with a bright smile.Get in the car, beauty. Ill be your driver today and take you home!
Zheng yuluos heart fell from the top of the tower into the mud.
She held back her tears and turned to look at the long-haired woman not far from her.
It was Shuyin!
Zheng yuluo heaved a sigh of relief, but she still could not suppress the disappointment and sadness in her heart. Tears kept welling up in her eyes, ready to fall at any time.
Shu Yin nced at Zheng yuluo, who was on the verge of tears, and then at Jing Zhi. She couldnt help but ask suspiciously,Me?
Why did Jing Zhi suddenly want to pick her up? Wasnt he supposed to pick up Zheng yuluo?
Of course its you!
Jing Zhi ignored Zheng yuluo and drove to Shu Yins side.Get in the car, Ill send you home!
Shu Yin always felt that he was deliberately angering Zheng yuluo in front of her. He had yed such childish tricks more than once.
She didnt believe that Jing Zhi hade to pick her up. She said calmly,I dont need you to send me back, I can take a taxi back. You can send yuluo home, her house is further away.
Since Jing Zhi didnt want to say anything, and Zheng yuluo was too embarrassed to say it, then she would say it.
Her personality was more straightforward, and she couldnt stand beating around the bush.
However, Shuyin was wrong this time. Jing Zhi had reallye to pick her up, but she didnt expect to run into Zheng yuluo at the school gate.
This was the first time they had met since Xiao Lings death.
They hadnt been separated for long, but Jing Zhi felt like it had been a long time.
It was so long that he felt that Zheng yuluo was a little unfamiliar!
But in reality, she was so familiar with it.
Zheng yuluos teary eyes made Jing Zhi a little annoyed.
Even if he did not look at her directly, he could see her clearly from the corner of his eyes!
Why was she crying again?
You only know how to cry every day, arent you afraid that youll cry until your eyes go blind!
However, even though Jing Zhi had scolded Zheng yuluo like a pig, he still felt sorry for her when he saw her cry.
Compared to the cold Shu Yin who was standing by the side, the weak Zheng yuluo always had the urge to be hugged andforted.
Chapter 1238
Chapter 1238: I cant ept this
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi restrained his impulse. He didnt forget his mission today. He deliberately said in a rxed tone,
Sister-inw, Im here on my brothers orders to take you home. He said that you dont want to see him now. Perhaps youd be willing toe home if I had this cute and handsome face! If I cantplete the mission, my only sports car will be confiscated, and Ill have to walk wherever I go in the future. You cant be that heartless, right?
Who said I dont want to see him? Shuyin asked, feeling a little strange.
She just didnt want to rely on someone too much.
It did not cost her much to take a taxi to and from school, and it would be a waste of Jing Ruis time to drive her back and forth.
Of course, it was good to have someone to pick you up, but you should get used to not having someone to pick you up.
I can go back by myself. You dont need to send me back in the future. Im not a child, so its okay.
Shuyin was on her period today, so she wasnt feeling well and couldnt lift her spirits. However, she still smiled faintly and said to Jing Zhi,Your brother and I didnt quarrel, and we didnt have any conflicts. You dont have to worry about us. You should worry about yourself!
As she spoke, she stopped a taxi and got in. She left quickly, leaving Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo some space.
Jing Zhi was about to catch up with the taxi when he heard Zheng yuluo call him in a delicate voice,Jing Zhi, dont go!
He did not have much resistance to everything about Zheng yuluo, especially her tears and voice.
He turned his head and saw that her fair face was already covered in tears. In the end, he didnt chase after Shuyin and stayed behind.
Seeing that he had not left, Zheng yuluo did not care about anything else. She carried her bag and directly opened the door and sat in the front passenger seat.
Jing Zhi opened his mouth, but he still couldnt bear to drive Zheng yuluo out of the car.
He didnt know when he had be such a soft-hearted person. Back in North America, not even a drop of blood could move him, let alone a tear.
Zheng yuluo only realized that she was being too bold after she got into the car. She sat there uneasily, her fingers twisted together. Seeing Jing Zhi staring at her with his calm eyes, she said in a low voice,Jing Zhi, I want to talk to you. Please dont chase me out of the car.
Jing Zhi suddenly leaned closer to Zheng yuluo. Zheng yuluo thought he was going to push her out of the car, so she hugged his waist and cried,Im not getting out of the car!
Jing Zhis body stiffened slightly. Zheng yuluos arm was tightly wrapped around his waist. He had never known that the slender and weak Zheng yuluo could have such great strength.
Her soft and fragrant body pressed against Jing Zhis body, making him feel greedy for her.
However, he still pried Zheng yuluos hand away, pressed her back into the seat, and leaned over to fasten her seat belt.
Zheng yuluos face turned red when she saw his action. She knew that she had misunderstood.
Jing Zhi didnt want to push her out of the car, he just wanted to help her put on her seatbelt.
Sit tight.
Jing Zhi said calmly, then drove away from the University of X.
There were many students here, and people came and went, so it was not a good ce to talk.
He drove the car far away and stopped at an empty beach. Then, he sat quietly and waited for Zheng yuluo to speak.
On the beach in the distance, there were couples walking side by side, some ying in the sea, and some people standing on the beach, kissing.
Jing Zhi looked at the couple on the beach, his expression dark.
Zheng yuluo also saw the couple expressing their love in the distance. She was both envious and sad. She wanted to ask him about Xiao Ling, but she was afraid that she had chosen the wrong topic, which would make Jing Zhis face turn even colder.
Fortunately, other than Xiao Lings matter, she had encountered something else today.
Today, Lou ruofu came to the school to look for me. She knelt down in front of many people and begged me to help her plead for mercy to Shuyin. Did something happen?
Jing Zhi was taken aback. He had no idea what had happened today.
Lou ruofu was sick? Why did he take such a big turn to ask Zheng yuluo instead of asking Shuyin directly?
What did this have to do with Zheng yuluo?
Jing Zhi didnt answer her question, but asked,Did you agree?
I didnt agree to plead for her. I only agreed to help her pass on a message to Shuyin and help her apologize to Shuyin.
Yes.
Jing Zhis eyes were still fixed on the distance as he said coldly,Dont get involved in this matter. It has nothing to do with you. It is a matter between the Lou family and the Jing family. My brother and I will handle it. You can just go to your ss.
Zheng yuluo hadnt seen Jing Zhi for a while, and she felt that Jing Zhi was a stranger.
His indifference seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, as cold as an Ice Mountain. The words he said were still considered considerate, but his tone was like that of a business man.
He wasnt like this when he was talking to Shuyin just now.
Zheng yuluo suppressed the sorrow in her heart, nodded, and said in a low voice,Alright, I understand. I wont interfere.
Even if she wanted to interfere, she couldn t, right?
The car fell into a brief silence. The atmosphere was a little cold and suffocating, making people want to escape.
However, Zheng yuluo knew that if she ran away, she might not have a chance to clear things up with Jing Zhi in the future.
Jing Zhi, about Xiao Ling ...
Jing Zhi frowned when he heard the name Xiao mo. He interrupted Zheng yuluo,It has nothing to do with you. The dead cant be brought back to life. Dont mention it again.
Zheng yuluo had already prepared herself for Jing Zhis rejection when she brought this up, and Jing Zhis reaction was within her expectations.
I didnt mean to bring it up. I had to bring it up. If you ignore me because of this, I wont be able to ept it!
It was rare for Zheng yuluo to be so sharp. She was usually gentle and easy to talk to, but she was really unwilling to give up on Jing Zhi.
He had long since taken root in her heart. It was simply impossible for her to like another man.
Besides, now that she knew that she had misunderstood the rtionship between Jing Zhi and Xiao Ling, and that Jing Zhi had no feelings for Xiao Ling, how could she let this opportunity slip away from her?
Im also a victim. How would I know that someone would pretend to be Xiao Ling to meet me, send me messages, and send me photos? Besides, you were the one who sent her to North America to study. The person I saw at the airport that day was also you. You did hug her, so why cant I be jealous?
Zheng yuluo was a little emotional, and even her voice was raised a lot. However, her voice was naturally pleasant, and even when she spoke loudly, she still had the feeling of a delicate little girl.
Seeing that she was about to cry again, Jing Zhi patiently exined what he had just said.When I said that it had nothing to do with you, I meant that Xiao Lings death had nothing to do with you.
Chapter 1239
Chapter 1239: Chapter 1239: the first Prince!
Trantor: 549690339
I sent her to North America because I was afraid that she would appear in front of you again and make you unhappy, not for her. Also, let me correct you, I didnt hold her on purpose. At the airport, she was pushed by someone from behind and fell on me. I couldnt have dodged and let her fall to the ground, right?
Recalling the scene at the airport, Jing Zhi realized that the person who pushed my had done it on purpose. He had pushed my onto him on purpose to show Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhi hadnt been able to find the real mastermind behind the impersonating Xiao Ling and harming Zheng yuluo. He had only caught a few of them running errands.
Jing Zhi had always felt guilty about Xiao Lings death. She had lived a difficult life, struggling to make ends meet. She hadnt had a good life since she met him.
Shes dead, and everything has disappeared. You dont have to worry about her, just focus on your studies. Her death was all because of me, and someone is trying to make things difficult for me, so you have to stay away from me, or else theylle for you.
Sometimes, it wasnt a good thing for love to be too strong.
At least for Jing Zhi, he would really give up everything for love. Didnt he almost kill Xiao Ling?
Under normal circumstances, if someone were to criticize another woman, he would not take it to heart at all. He would use his own values to measure her and would not arbitrarily give a death sentence.
After being apart for a while, he felt that his mind could be a little more clear.
The moment he saw Zheng yuluo, he wanted to let go of everything and abandon everything.
His initial pity for Xiao Ling was only because her every move made him see Zheng yuluos shadow.
In the end, he still liked Zheng yuluo.
However, Zheng yuluo couldnt feel Jing Zhis emotions at all. She only felt that Jing Zhi was cold and distant.
But at least Jing Zhi had said that she had nothing to do with Xiao Lings death.
This made Zheng yuluo, who had been ming herself, feel a little better.
She wasnt a vicious person. Perhaps she had been angry and angry, but she didnt want people to die.
Is there anything I can do to help Xiao Ling? I can sponsor her younger brother and sisters education and help her parents find jobs. I heard from my father that their family is having a hard time.
No need. I already said that it has nothing to do with you. Why are you helping them?
After all this talk, he was not allowed to mention Xiao Ling anymore. Why was he still talking about this?
Even if Zheng yuluo was responsible for Xiao Lings death, it was only the lightest responsibility. The people who should die the most were the person who killed Xiao Ling, and himself!
Jing Zhi was losing his patience. He said impatiently,My brother has alreadypensated her family enough. Stop being so long-winded, Ill send you back!
Jing Rui had sent him to pick Shuyin up today, but he let her go home alone. Jing Zhi didnt stop her when she got into the taxi because he felt that he could follow behind the taxi and protect her in time if anything happened.
She couldnt help but worry about Shuyins safety.
He was a little careless. He didnt know if Shuyin was home yet.
When her brother saw Shuyin going back alone, he would probably give her a good scolding when he got home. If he knew that he had not sent Shuyin off because of Zheng yuluo, he would probably not have a good time for the next month.
Jing Rui had told him to keep a distance from Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhi was in a hurry to leave, but Zheng yuluo was afraid that he would just leave and never talk to her again.
She grabbed Jing Zhis arm and stopped him from starting the car. It wasnt easy for me to see you, so I have to make things clear. Youre not allowed to leave!
Jing Zhi took her hand away and said, Its already very clear.
Even if Zheng yuluo had killed someone, she was still the same Zheng yuluo in his heart. He had never cared whether Zheng yuluo was innocent or cruel.
He was not a good person himself, so he did not mind Zheng yuluo being a little more ruthless.
Zheng yuluos worries were actually unnecessary to Jing Zhi. He didnt alienate Zheng yuluo because of Xiao Ling.
The only thing that could really hurt him was Zheng yuluos rejection and doubt.
Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhis thoughts werepletely different. She felt that Jing Zhi was just patronizing her, so she frowned.How is it clear? I cant even say a word, and you only know how to chase me away!
Not only was Zheng yuluo not used to Jing Zhis coldness, but Jing Zhi was also not used to Zheng yuluos change.
In the past, Zheng yuluo had been the most obedient. She had never retorted no matter what he said. Why was she retorting everything he said now?
Perhaps, people were all growing.
Jing Zhi felt that he was more mature than he had beenst year. He had learned to manage people and take care of Jing Xi when he was with Jing Rui. He was bing more mature.
Zheng yuluo no longer listened to himpletely, and it was normal for her to have her own thoughts.
She was also growing.
Jing Zhi didnt say anything else. He started the car and drove away from the beach, heading into the city.
Halfway there, he found a good ce to get a taxi and stopped the car. I still have something to do, so I wont be sending you back. Take a taxi home!
Zheng yuluo lowered her head and said softly,Im not going home. Ill follow you. Ill go wherever you go.
Jing Zhi had never realized that Zheng yuluo was so clingy. He couldnt get her to leave no matter how hard he tried. He couldnt bear to say harsh words or scold her. If this continued, it would be dark!
He couldnt hit him or scold him. Jing Zhi realized that he couldnt use any of his tough tactics anymore.
He could only coax her.
Dont mess around. Go home. Your parents should be waiting for you for dinner. I really have something to do.
Jing Zhis tone had obviously be much gentler. Zheng yuluo looked up and saw a faint helplessness on his handsome face.
He was familiar to her, and she had always loved and yearned for him in her dreams. At this moment, he was right in front of her. Zheng yuluo had an impulse to hold his face with both hands and put her lips on his.
It seemed like they had not kissed for a long time!
Just a light touch made both of their hearts tremble.
Jing Zhi was a man who liked to have sex, but he didnt like to kiss.
Therefore, he had never kissed Zheng yuluo for a long time after he had taken her.
He didnt like kissing.
But now, he liked her.
However, he had kissed Zheng yuluo so many times that Zheng yuluo was shy and shy. She only touched Jing Zhis lips once before they separated, blushing.
But she didnt let go. She caressed Jing Zhis face with her fingers and her beautiful eyes were full of love.
At that moment, Jing Zhi forgot about Shuyin, Xiao Ling, and all the grudges he had with her.
He looked at Zheng yuluos clear eyes. He only cared about Zheng yuluo from the bottom of his heart!
Even if Zheng yuluo hurt him thousands of times, he could not help but fall for her!

Chapter 1240: Opposition

Jing Zhi couldnt take it anymore. He hugged Zheng yuluos waist and pulled her from the passenger seat to hisp.
Zheng yuluo eximed, and her hands that were holding his face subconsciously moved to Jing Zhis neck.
The angle of her head was just right for Jing Zhi to lower his head and take.
The two lips were pressed together. It was a little soft and hot, making it easy for one to ignore everything around them.
No one was born to kiss, but if they were deeply in love, this kind of thing didnt need special learning or extra practice. Everything would happen naturally.
It had been a long time since she had hugged and kissed so passionately. Jing Zhis kisses in the past were only superficial, but today, Zheng yuluo felt like she was going to be swallowed by Jing Zhi.
Just as their tongues were entangled passionately, they were suddenly interrupted by a knocking sound.
Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo suddenly separated and turned to look at the window at the same time.
Zheng Jing retracted his hand and shouted in shock and anger,Yuluo, get out of the car immediately!
Zheng Jings voice was like a Thunderbolt, which turned Zheng yuluo from a ball of fire into a ball of ice.
She got off Jing Zhi in a panic, opened the door and stood in front of Zheng Jing. She lowered her head helplessly, not knowing how to defend herself and Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhis enthusiasm was also extinguished by Zheng Jing. He didnt want to let go of Zheng yuluo, but he knew that if he didnt let go, Zheng yuluo would be in an extremely embarrassing situation.
He had no choice but to let go.
Yuluo, wait in my car. I have something to say to Jing Zhi!
Zheng Jings voice was so harsh that Zheng yuluos shoulders were shaking.
Jing Zhi felt that it was very unpleasant to look at. He stared at Zheng Jing and said coldly,Director Zheng, youre really impressive. You scared your own daughter to show that youre very capable?
Zheng Jing ignored him and stared at his daughter with a stern look. Seeing that she refused to leave, he frowned.What are you still doing? Go to my car!
Although Zheng yuluo was afraid of her fathers authority, she was afraid that her father and Jing Zhi would fight, so she stood there with her head down and refused to move.
Jing Zhi, of course, was not afraid of Zheng Jing. He hated to see Zheng yuluo being so upset. He said,You go first. Ill have a few words with bureau chief Zheng. Its time to go home!
Zheng yuluo felt that his tone was gentle and he didnt seem to have any intention to argue with Zheng Jing, so she left with hesitation.
But as soon as she left, Jing Zhis expression changed. His eyes were so fierce that they could kill.
Zheng Jings eyes were not any better.
When he had been driving past the area, he had nced over at Jing Zhis brand new sports car. Jing Zhis car had been too eye-catching. He had stopped at the side of the road and didnt care if it was allowed to Park in that area. He looked like a spoiled brat who had ignored the rules.
Zheng Jing didnt pay much attention at first. As the director of the Public Security Bureau, he wouldnt drive away the car owners who didnt stop ording to the rules. The traffic police would deal with it.
However, he only took one look and all the blood rushed to the top of his head. He was so angry that he almost fainted!
In the sports car, the spoiled young master was the most dangerous person, Jing Zhi. The person sitting on top of him and kissing him was his daughter, Zheng yuluo!
Zheng Jing had already guessed that there was something going on between them and he had warned his daughter seriously. But what had he seen today?
When did the two of them develop to this extent?
Didnt Zheng yuluo say a few days ago that she would never see Jing Zhi again?
Didnt she give up on Jing Zhi because of Xiao Ling?
Zheng Jing was furious when he thought of the scene where his daughter was sitting on Jing Zhisp. He had told his daughter to stay away from Jing Zhi, but she was standing so close to him!
Jing Zhi, dont pester my daughter anymore. Youre not allowed to touch her! Dont you know how dangerous your body is? Raindrops are weak and cant withstand your virus! If you want to harm others, go harm others, dont harm yuluo!
Jing Zhi chuckled and the corners of his lips lifted into a sarcastic smile.I finally know why Zheng yuluo treated me as a monster and avoided me like a snake when she was young!
He got out of the car and stood in front of Zheng Jing. He said coldly, Didnt you see it? She was in my arms and I even kissed her. Is she dead? Shes still alive and well!
In the past, Jing Zhi was insensible. He always thought that the Zheng sisters were too bad, so they got all the children to iste him.
However, he now knew that Zheng yuluo was not bad to begin with. Her worldview and judgment of people were taught by her parents.
Perhaps, his title of monster was not given by Zheng yuluo, but by Zheng Jing?
A childs world was originally simple and free of impurities. The reason why their world was no longer pure was because the adults had stuffed a lot of rubbish into it!
If you continue to get close to her, she will not be far from death! Once or twice was good luck, but if they were in contact for a long time, who could guarantee that the rain would not be dangerous? You must leave her!
Zheng Jings eyes turned red. He was angry and also distressed.
Jing Zhi had been beaten up by the police, and the two men who had hit him had died because their wounds hade in contact with his blood.
He didnt want his daughter to die!
There were so many men in the world, there was no need to choose such a dangerous one!
Thats risking your life in love!
Since youre so afraid of your daughters death, you should chain her up at home. There are so many cars on the road, and its lucky that it happened once or twice. If you walk for a long time, who can guarantee that Zheng yuluo wont be hit by a car? There are so many bad guys like me out there these days, maybe shell be killed one day?
Jing Zhi wasnt in a good mood, so he didnt hold back.Besides, its still not certain whos pestering who. Your daughter insisted on getting into my car. Im not a good person, so theres no reason for me not to eat meat thats already in my mouth!
You have a problem with your upbringing and youre here to scold me? Hehe, thanks to you, I was taken away when I was ten years old. I didnt have parents to teach me, and I grew up in a bad way. I dont know how to live, and I only know how to kill. Do you want to try how it feels to have your head removed?
Jing Zhi had not been med by Zheng Jing many times in his life. He was used to living an arrogant life. He had never cared about his own life. He would return the favor to anyone who provoked him a thousand times over. When people knew that he was not afraid of death, few people would go against him.
Even the people from the Virus Research Institute and the killer organization basically gave in to him, giving him whatever he wanted.

Chapter 1241: Another crime

Apart from Jing Ruis words, he did not care about what his own parents said.
Now that there was a Zheng Jing He was not familiar with, he was so rebellious that he hadpletely forgotten that Zheng Jing was Zheng yuluos father.
He grabbed Zheng Jings cor and pulled him forward so hard that Zheng Jing almost fell to the ground.
Zheng Jing had been working out for many years and was in good shape. No ordinary person could beat him, but he had no way of fighting back against Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo had been sitting in Zheng Jings car, watching them nervously. She had wanted toe over when the two of them had started quarreling, but she was scared out of her wits when Jing Zhi had attacked her.
He had almost killed Zheng yuluo with one kick, and she still had lingering fears when she saw Jing Zhi use force.
What if he didnt control his strength and killed Zheng Jing?
Zheng yuluo ran to the two of them as fast as she could and shouted,Quickly stop! Dont fight!
Jing Zhi didnt let go, nor did Zheng Jing. He grabbed Jing Zhis cor and they both fell to the ground after losing their bnce.
The two of them could not hear Zheng yuluos words at all. Their eyes were fierce, as if they wanted to kill each other.
But in general, Jing Zhi had the upper hand. Although he didnt want to kill Zheng Jing, all the moves he knew were cruel and deadly. Zheng Jing was more on guard.
Zheng yuluo was so anxious that she cried. She saw that the corner of her fathers mouth was bleeding!
Dont hit me, dont hit me! Jing Zhi, let go of my father! Youre going to kill him!
Zheng yuluos voice was sharp and shrill. Jing Zhi, who was in a state of mania, suddenly came back to his senses. He pulled back his fist that was about to hit Zheng Jings face.
But when he stopped, Zheng Jings fistnded on his face.
Jing Zhis face immediately swelled up.
But he didnt fight back. Zheng yuluo was already out of breath from crying. If he hit Zheng Jing again, Zheng yuluo would probably pass out from crying.
He did not like to see her cry.
No, so what if he killed Zheng Jing?
It would only add to his misdeeds, and the Zheng family would have more than enough reason to object to him and Zheng yuluo being together.
Jing Zhi got up from the ground. He didnt care that his new shirt and pants were dirty. He got into his car and quickly left the area.
He was angry and bitter because he was still despised by others. The Zheng family might have never changed their view of him and had always thought that he was a dangerous monster.
He had been too impulsive to hit Zheng Jing today.
But Jing Zhi didnt regret his impulsiveness. He had wanted to beat Zheng Jing up for a long time.
Zheng Jing had been against him being with Zheng yuluo. He had never said anything good about him. He had taught Zheng yuluo to be like that when she was young.
However, Zheng yuluo would probably be distressed and angry.
Jing Zhi shook his head, stepped on the gas, and sped away.
Zheng yuluos heart ached for him, but she was also angry.
She helped Zheng Jing into the car and her eyes were swollen from crying.Dad, well go to the hospital immediately. Are you okay? Why dont you stop driving and Ill call the ambnce!
At this moment, Zheng yuluo especially hated herself for not even knowing how to drive a car. Otherwise, she could immediately drive her father to the hospital even without a drivers license.
Zheng Jing had been beaten badly. He was no match for Jing Zhi. Todays fight had made him realize that Jing Zhi had gone beyond the scope of a normal human being.
He was not human!
Luoluo, Im fine, but you have to remember what I said. From today on, youre not allowed to see Jing Zhi anymore! Hes too dangerous!
Blood kept flowing out of the corner of Zheng Jings mouth and his face was so swollen that it was hard for him to speak. But he still managed to say every word clearly.
Dad, its not what you think. Hes very good to me. Hes not in danger. I
You dont need to exin. Just tell me if you can do it or not!
Zheng yuluo was forced by her father and was already sobbing.Dad, Ill take you to the hospital first, okay? When youre better, well talk about this. Youre still bleeding, Im so scared!
Zheng Jing was more concerned about his daughter. He knew that he looked terrible now. Zheng yuluo had never seen blood in her life and she must have been scared by this.
Im fine. Its just some superficial wounds. They look scary, but theyre not serious. Ill be fine after a few days of rest.
Zheng Jing said as he got out of the back seat, sat in the drivers seat and drove to the hospital.
Zheng yuluo wanted to stop him, but she couldn t. Seeing that Zheng Jing could still drive, she thought that at least it proved that he was fine. Jing Zhi didnt kill him, nor did he attack his fatal weakness.
Her heart was in a mess. She was worried that Jing Zhi would get hurt and angry that he had hit Zheng Jing without a care.
Even if it was for her sake, he could not hit Zheng Jing. This was her biological father who had raised her!
It was all her fault for getting into Jing Zhis car and kissing him today.
Zheng Jing must have seen them kissing in the car and that was why he was so angry.
But now Jing Zhi had added another crime to the list. Zheng Jing was very determined.
They arrived at family MUs Hospital soon. Zheng yuluo had no time to think and helped Zheng Jing into the emergency room.
Mu Qing was shocked to see his old friend so badly injured.Who did this? You dare to hit the director of the Public Security Bureau? are you tired of living?
Zheng Jing shook his head and didnt exin. He just said, Dont ask for now. Just apply the medicine. The bones should be fine. Just deal with the external injuries.
Mu Qing disagreed,are you a doctor or am I a doctor? Go get an X-ray first. Youll only be fine if the X-ray shows that your bones are fine!
Zheng Jing couldnt argue with Mu Qing, so he had to agree.
The CT scan showed that Zheng Jings ribs and forearm were slightly fractured and he would need to rest for at least a month.
Zheng yuluo was already ming herself to death. Her fathers forearm was fractured, but he had actually driven all the way to the hospital! How much pain did he have to endure!
Zheng Jing was surprised by the result. When he and Jing Zhi had fought, both of them had held back. How could he still have broken a bone? He didnt feel much pain!
However, his bones were injured, so he would not be able to work for at least a month.
Zheng Jing cursed in a low voice,you brat, you have so much brute force. I wonder what you grew up with. If it wasnt for my quick reaction, I wouldnt even be able to stand up!
Mu Qing was very curious,who is it? Why did you get beaten up? I dont remember many people being able to beat you up, right?

Chapter 1242: Getting angry

It wasnt a glorious thing to be beaten by Jing Zhi. Besides, if she said that she had fought with Jing Zhi, she would have to exin the reason.
Zheng Jing didnt want to talk about the affair between Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi, nor did he want to tell her that he had seen his daughter sitting on Jing Zhisp and kissing him, and then he had gone to Jing Zhi to get even with him.
Zheng Jing didnt want to tell him, but let Mu Qing treat his wound.
Mu Qing couldnt get an answer. He was so anxious that he wanted to pry open Zheng Jings head.
Zheng Jings injury was neither too serious nor too light. At least he had a slight fracture in his arm and could not drive.
Mu Qing had to drive the father and daughter home.
When she got home, Zheng Lun was shocked and felt sorry for her husband. She almost passed out when she saw her husband wrapped up like a dumpling.
She was only slightly relieved when Mu Qing assured her that Zheng Jing was fine.
After Mu Qing left, Zheng Jing told Zheng Lun the reason for his injury, as well as what had happened to Zheng yuluo.
Zheng Lun had never known that her daughter had fallen in love with Jing Zhi. She had always thought that her daughter hated Jing Zhi the most.
In the past, Zheng Lun didnt like or hate Jing Zhi. She just felt guilty towards him, because Zheng yuluo had done something wrong and it was their fault for not teaching their child well.
But now, seeing Zheng Jing injured, she was so heartbroken that she kept crying and telling Zheng yuluo not to be with Jing Zhi anymore.
Zheng yuluo didnt say a word, but kept crying with Zheng Lun.
She couldnt let go of Jing Zhi, but she couldnt go against her parents wishes.
Zheng Jing didnt know how close his daughter and Jing Zhi were, but he thought that Jing Zhi had juste back. Even if his daughter liked him, how long could she like him?
It was better to let Zheng yuluo give up on her thoughtspletely while they didnt like each other too deeply and it was easy to separate.
Zheng yuluo went back to her room dejectedly. Shey on the bed and thought that if her sister hadnt gone to school and was at home instead, she would have been angry and asked her to stay away from Jing Zhi when she saw her father so badly injured.
Zheng yuluo tossed and turned. She was still thinking about Jing Zhi, wondering how badly he was injured.
However, when he left, there were no obvious wounds on his body, nor was there any bleeding. It should only be a light injury.
She didnt dare and couldnt call Jing Zhi at this time. It would be unfilial.
Jing Zhi was sitting on the sofa, his handsome face bruised. He was eating a fruit tter nonchntly and nced at his phone for the umpteenth time.
The phone was silent, and there was no sign of any calls or text messages.
Jing Rui nced at him and said,Ah Chi, dont look for Zheng yuluo again in the future, not even once!
Jing Zhi didnt say anything for a long time before he asked,What about Shuyin s?
Ill go find her myself. You stay at home with Xixi. If you dare to leave Xixi to find Zheng yuluo, Ill make Zheng yuluo disappear from this world!
Jing Ruis voice was extremely stern, and Jing Zhi knew that he was not joking.
He couldnt eat any more fruit, so he threw away his small fork and said with his head down,I thought she would be fine, but who knew that she would be taken away again after a ten-minute walk. Didnt she call you? She said shes fine!
If Shuyin wasnt fine, Jing Rui wouldnt be sitting here and talking to Jing Zhi. He must have kicked him to Mars long ago!
I told you to pick her up, but you lost her. Didnt you know that she was missing for two days? Why did I ask you to go? Because you are the person I trust the most! Because you have enough power to protect her!
This was the first time that Jing Rui had lost his temper at Jing Zhi.
Although he didnt look angry, his voice was as cold as ice, and there was no warmth in his tone.
He asked Jing Zhi to pick up Shuyin, but Jing Zhi let Zheng yuluo get into his car and let Shuyin take a taxi!
If nothing had happened to Shuyins own taxi, this would have been a small matter. But Shuyin had yet to return!
Shuyins subordinates were all stopped. She was alone and once again disappeared from his control.
Fortunately, Shuyin seemed to be able to move freely this time. She even gave him a very short call to tell him that she was safe and that he didnt need to look for her for the time being. She would be back soon.
If Jing Rui had known that this would happen, he would have picked Shuyin up personally.
However, it had already happened. No matter how remorseful or angry he was, it was useless.
Scolding Jing Zhi would not help, but he had to give him a good scolding. Otherwise, Jing Rui would not be at ease if he asked Jing Zhi to take care of Jing Xi.
One had to know that Jing Xi was much more mischievous than Shuyin, and problems could arise if one was not careful.
If Jing Zhi abandoned Jing Xi like today and fell in love with Zheng yuluo, who would be responsible for Jing Xis ident?
Jing Rui stood up and said calmly,Chi, I will not interfere with who you are in a rtionship with. It is your freedom. I hope that you will live a good life and be with the person you like. However, theres a limit to dating and you should also have your priorities.
After he finished speaking, he walked out into the dark night.
Jing Zhi was the only one left in the living room. He scratched his head in frustration. Everything had gone wrong today. He had left the house without checking the Chinese calendar.
He didnt expect Shuyin to be in trouble either!
Didnt she just get held hostage two days ago?
Why did that wave of people make a move so quickly?
He had originally thought that Shuyin was different from Zheng yuluo. Zheng yuluo didnt have much power to protect herself. She was weak and always needed someone to protect her. However, Shuyin wasnt weak. She was a strong woman and didnt need protection.
It turned out that Shuyin was just a weak woman. She also needed someone to protect her.
Jing Zhi felt a headacheing on because he had annoyed his brother and the Zheng family. He was a little listless.
He continued to eat the fruits in boredom, but his stomach was still growling.
He had done something wrong today, and Jing Rui was so angry that he refused to let him eat.
Jing Zhi rolled up his sleeves and looked at the bruises on his arms. He felt so miserable.
He didnt know if it was a coincidence or what, but every time he met Zheng yuluo, nothing good woulde out of it. It had be a curse!
If he were to marry Zheng yuluo in the future, would there be disasters every day?
Jing Zhi began to seriously think about his rtionship with Zheng yuluo. He hoped that he could coordinate Zheng yuluos rtionship with others.
His brother had made it clear that he had to break up with Zheng yuluo. In the future, he would have to see Zheng yuluo in secret.
If there was another situation, her brother might really punish Zheng yuluo.

Thinking of Zheng yuluos soft lips and soft and fragrant body, Jing Zhi would be extremely nostalgic.
He had never touched any other girl, and he wondered if other girls were like her. Even if they didnt use any makeup or perfume, they still had a refreshing fragrance on them.
However, he did hold Xiao Ling when she was unconscious, but Xiao Ling did not give him any soft or fragrant feelings, nor did she make him feel any kind of primitive impulse.
Jing Zhi knew his desire for Zheng yuluo, but the more he wanted to, the more he couldnt get close to her.
At least, they had to take a break. After some time, when everyone had calmed down and could face the matter between him and Zheng yuluo rationally, they could continue to be together.
Jing Rui didnte back for the whole night, and Jing Zhi didnt know what was going on with Shuyin. In the morning, Jing Xi kept asking him where Shuyin was, and he had no choice but to tell her the truth.
Jing Xi rolled her eyes.Second brother, she said.Why dont you try and see if you can hear the sound of the sea?
How would I know that this would happen?!
Jing Zhi was a little scared of Jing Rui, but not the little girl. He said,I was already unlucky enough yesterday. Dont rub salt in my wound!
You dont like it when I say that water has entered your brain. If youre normal, why didnt you drive with sister yuluo to chase after that car? Cant you guys start dating after youve sent my sister-inw home safely? It was only a ten-minute journey from X University to here by taxi! You guys cant even wait for ten minutes?
Youre right. Why didnt I think of that?Jing Zhi was surprised.
Jing Xi sighed. Even she could tell that Jing Zhi wanted to be with Zheng yuluo more. Otherwise, he wouldnt have let Shuyin leave.
It wasnt that Jing Zhi didnt think of it, but the moment he saw Zheng yuluo, he probably couldnt care about Shu Yin anymore.
Now that sister-inw is gone, theres no chance for second sister-inw. Why is my life so hard? I have to live with two unreliable brothers. Why dont I have a handsome man to protect me?
She had taken a fancy to mu Sen, but mu Sen liked someone else. Then she fell for Lou Ziyi, but the Lou family wanted to rebel and rece the Jing family, so she was beaten back to her original state by her brother. It would be a wonder if Lou Ziyi would like her in the future.
Second brother, lets go out and y! I dont want to stay at home, its too boring. There are so many handsome men and beautiful women on the street, we can go and flirt with one!
Jing Xis brother had taken away all her fun things recently, so she couldnt make any destructive weapons. She felt that even her favorite tadpole-shaped candy was not sweet anymore.
Jing Zhi wasnt someone who would stay at home. He was in a bad mood, and his life was in a mess, so he took Jing Xi out to y.
He carried Jing Xi and walked out. When he reached the door, he gave her a kiss and said,Girl, youre still the best. When I was at my lowest and most helpless, you were always by my side!
Jing Xi wiped her face in disgust.Aiya, second brother, youre too shameless! Im already a big girl, how can you kiss me as you wish! My little face can only be kissed by my boyfriend!
The way she acted like a big girl was a little funny, and Jing Zhis depressed mood was amused by her. Heughed,Then well talk about it when you have a boyfriend! Youre only eight years old and you have the nerve to call yourself a big girl. Dont tell me that eighteen is an old girl?
Jing Xi chuckled. She actually liked Jing Zhi kissing her, but she was just trying to make Jing Zhi feel better.
Her second brother was so handsome that even the gods would be angered by him. She had profited from a kiss!
Anyway, she earned all the kisses from all the good-looking people!
There were many fun ces in A city, but the brother and sister were not ordinary people. Their preferences were a little special.
They had gone to a temple in A city to have fun with the monk!
There werent many temples left in A city, but Dayun temple was the most well-preserved and the most Orthodox temple. There was an endless stream of people who came here every day to visit or to pray to Buddha.
Especially now that it was the peak season for tourism, the number of foreign tourists had soared, and Dayun temple had received a lot of money.
Just a so-called protective talisman cost 99 Yuan. Even an incense stick would cost at least 20 yuan, not to mention all kinds of Blessed Bracelets, pendants, woodenbs, and so on.
Of course, these things wouldnt be directly sold by the monks. That would be embarrassing and tacky!
Naturally, there were people hired by the temple to sell these things. They said that they would add a trace of Buddhas light to the family and ensure their safety.
Jing Zhi carried Jing Xi on his shoulder and walked around the temple, attracting countless eyes. Because the brother and sister were so beautiful and had a special style, they were 2.5 meters tall. Others had to lift their heads to see Jing Xi.
The monks of Dayun temple were basically aloof from worldly affairs. The management of the temple was rtively strict. Although they would try their best to increase their ie, they would never allow the monks to break the rules. They would also not bow and kneel to high-level tourists. Even if it was the mayor who came, everyone would chant Sutras and meditate when they needed to.
However, the two uninvited guests today made the Dayun temples Abbots scalp numb. He was so scared that he stopped chanting and immediately asked his disciple to quickly send them away.
Thest time Jing Xi came, Dayun temple had almost been blown up. This time, she had even brought a helper who had obviously killed before. Was she going to destroy Dayun temple?
Old host, Im Jing Xi. Dont you recognize me? Wuwuwu, Im so sad, how can you let your disciple chase me away?
The old Abbots hair and beard were all white, and even his beard was shaking when he heard this.Oh, its you, young almsgiver. Im getting on in my years, and my five senses are gradually fading away. My vitality is withered, and I cant sleep at night
Stop, stop, stop!
Old monk, Jing Zhi said impatiently,speak in humannguage!
He had been taken abroad to live when he was young, so he didnt understand many words in China. It was so awkward to speak in such a genteel way!
The old Abbot was so frightened by his fiendish appearance that his beard trembled again. He didnt dare to be long-winded and directly said,My eyes are not good, dont misunderstand!
He had been studying Buddhism for many years and had lived more than half of his life. He had seen all kinds of people and things, and he could tell that Jing Zhi was extraordinary at one nce.
Dont think that the temple is backward. The old Abbot also uses aputer, and the temple has WiFi. The monk also uses the inte often!
How could he not know about such a powerful family like the Jing family?
Jingsheng enterprise and family Jing were always on the news in A city.
The small ones were not easy to fool, so the big ones were even more difficult to fool.
If you have anything to say, just say it. Dayun temple will definitely help as long as its within our means!
Jing Zhi was surprised by the old hosts friendliness. He was embarrassed to be rude to him.
Um, master host, my sister and I want to be hosts for a day. Can you lend Yingying to us to wear?
Chapter 1244
Chapter 1244: Meeting
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi and Jing Xi had tried everything they could, but the host refused to let them rece him for a day.
The two of them had only managed to borrow the Kasaya of an ordinary monk. They sat cross-legged on the futon in the peace Temple and became monks.
When Zheng yuluo saw Jing Zhi sitting there with his eyes closed, she thought she was seeing things.
When she took a closer look at the child sitting next to him, she realized that it was Jing Xi!
Zheng yuluos grandmother, PEI Xinhua, saw her granddaughter standing there in a daze and could not help but urge her,Luoluo, lets go. Lets go to the pce of marriage to take a look. People say that this ce is very spiritual.
When PEI Xinhua was young, she did not believe in these things, but the older she got, the more she believed in them.
Seeing her son so hurt, she was furious but helpless. She had called Zheng yuluo early in the morning and asked her toe to the temple on Zheng Jings behalf to burn incense and pray to Buddha for peace andfort.
However, it was impossible for him toe to Dayun temple just to seek peace.
Dayun temple was built near a mountain and covered arge area. It was covered in pine and cypress trees and had beautiful scenery. Not only was it a tourist spot in A city, but it was also a famous temple for marriage, studies, and careers.
Many people thought that since there was no harm in paying their respects, they could just take it as enjoying the scenery and learning Buddhism. The ticket price was only a few dozen Yuan, so except for the cold winter, there were many people.
Zheng yuluo had been to Dayun temple countless times. Every year on the day Jing Zhi went missing, she woulde and sincerely beg for his safe return.
And today was the day she would personally send Jing Zhi away.
She couldnt hear her grandmothers voice anymore. Jing Zhi was the only thing in her eyes.
He was wearing a monks Kasaya and had shaved his head. He sat on the futon in a solemn and cold manner. His overly handsome face did not diminish because of his bald head. Instead, it added a unique charm that was like abstinence!
The fragrance of Buddha lingered in the hall. Jing Zhi, who had his eyes closed and was silent, seemed to be in a dream.
Most of the tourists who came might not ask for marriage, but they would definitelye to ask for peace. The protective talismans of Dayun temple were the best-selling ones. Many private cars in A city would hang such protective talismans.
As a result, the pce of peace was the most spacious and had the most people.
Jing Zhi alone was enough to attract everyones attention, not to mention the beautiful Jing Xi sitting next to him.
Every year, Dayun temple would take in some homeless orphans. Some of them were sent here when they could not afford to raise their children. Some of them were disabled and had no money to treat or raise their children. They were all entrusted to Dayun temple.
The abbot of Dayun temple would usually kindly take them in and pay for the childrens treatment. There were also specialized monks to raise the children.
There were children in the temple, but none as beautiful as Jing Xi.
She had also shaved her head and was sitting there cross-legged, quiet and obedient. Her big eyes were like manao s, bright and shining. One look and you could tell that she was a smart and lovely child.
Some people even had the thought of adopting the little monk!
Jing Xi looked at the endless stream of tourists in front of her. She thought of how her second brother and she had shaved their heads and pretended to be monks, and how well he had done it. Even the number of people buying the talisman had increased. She almostughed in her heart!
This is really interesting!
I wont go to school in the future. Ill juste to the temple and be a monk!
Eh, no, shes a girl, so she cant be considered a monk. She should be a little nun!
Tsk, tsk, tsk. There were so many handsome men in the crowd. Jing Xi only found out today that many handsome men hade to the temple!
Unfortunately, most of the handsome men were apanied by a beautiful woman.
In front of the Buddha, was she supposed to break up the couple and take the handsome man for herself?
Jing Xi rolled her eyes and suddenly said to Jing Zhi, who was pretending to be cold with his eyes closed,Second brother, lets work together! Which couple do you like? I want a guy, and I want the girl to be your girlfriend.
What kind of rotten idea was this!
Jing Zhi opened his eyes and red at Jing Xi. He then closed his eyes and said in a low voice,Im a monk, why would I need a girlfriend! Youve also be a monk, so you cant get married in the future!
Jing Xi wanted tough when she saw Jing Zhis bald head. She was trying so hard to hold it in that she was about to get an internal injury.
She was about to say that they were not really monks and were just putting on a show when she suddenly saw Zheng yuluo in the crowd.
Second brother, I saw sister yuluo! Quickly take a look!
Jing Zhi suddenly opened his eyes, and the slender and beautiful Zheng yuluo, who was not far away, came into his sight.
Zheng yuluo also saw that Jing Zhi had seen her. She looked into Jing Zhis eyes through the crowd. She had the illusion that they had been entangled in their previous lives, and she also felt the pain of losing Jing Zhi.
She knew that the Jing family would not allow Jing Zhi to take Jing Xi as a monk, but when she saw Jing Zhi sitting there in a monks robe, she felt that he had really be a monk.
PEI Xinhua called out to her granddaughter a few times, but she seemed to have not heard her. She walked out of the hall and could not help but walk back, pulling Zheng yuluo away.
She had also seen Jing Zhi and Jing Xi, but she was past the age of infatuation and didnt think that Jing Zhi was that handsome. Besides, she was still thinking about the injured Zheng Jing and wanted to go home as soon as possible.
Fortunately, PEI Xinhua did not know Jing Zhi and Jing Xi. If she had known that the monk in front of her was the one who had hurt Zheng Jing, she would have fought Jing Zhi to the death.
It would be another farce.
Zheng yuluo was pulled out by PEI Xinhua, but her eyes never left Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi sat there, watching Zheng yuluo being pulled away and slowly disappearing from his sight. His heart, which had been excited about being a monk, gradually cooled down.
Jing Xi saw her second brother sitting still, his face cold and serious, as if he had really be a monk. She immediately got up from the futon and ran out of the peace Hall.
Second brother, Ill help you take a look at sister yuluo!
She ran so fast that Jing Zhi didnt even have time to catch her.
He had just lost Shuyin yesterday. If he lost Jing Xi today, Jing Zhi suspected that he would be split in half by his brother!
There were so many people in the temple. What if Jing Xi was caught and sold?
Jing Zhi also got up and chased after Jing Xi.
Dont run around!
Jing Zhi was tall and had long legs, so it didnt take long for him to catch Jing Xi.
Second brother, Im now a little monk in the temple. No one dares to bully me, or else Buddha will not let those bad guys off!
Jing Zhi was speechless. Those child traffickers didnt care if you were a monk or an ordinary person. You would be the same when your hair grew out.
Did she think that the human traffickers would not dare to touch her just because she was wearing a Kasaya?
If the Buddha was so powerful, the police would have lost their jobs!
Chapter 1245
Chapter 1245: The untouchable lover
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi was a killer and he didnt believe in Buddha at all. Otherwise, he would have killed himself out of guilt after killing so many people.
Follow me and dont go into the crowd. Children like you are the primary targets of human traffickers. If you keep messing around, I wont bring you out to y!
Jing Xi ignored him and continued to walk forward to catch up with Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluos eyes were full of love and sorrow when she looked at Jing Zhi. It was obvious that she had special feelings for Jing Zhi. She had to go after him!
Second brother, look! Sister yuluo has gone to the pce of marriage!
When Jing Zhi looked up, Zheng yuluo was already gone.
However, he did not care where Zheng yuluo went. So what if she went to the pce of marriage? would she really have a good marriage if she begged?
He didnt believe in any of the evil spirits.
Jing Zhi picked Jing Xi up in his arms, not allowing her to go after Zheng yuluo.
PEI Xinhua did not know him, but he had seen all the healers in Zheng yuluos house, so he knew PEI Xinhua.
Probably no one in the Zheng family liked him. If PEI Xinhua knew about his rtionship with Zheng yuluo, she would definitely speak badly of him.
Jing Zhi didnt want to hit Zheng yuluos grandmother again today after he had just hit her father yesterday. It was better not to see her.
This was the first time in Jing Zhis life that he had chosen to give in. This was the first time that he didnt act impulsively and follow his heart.
He would rather be a coward than to make Zheng yuluo sad again.
Jing Xi was still young and did not understand the meaning behind this. She only felt that Jing Zhi did not chase after Zheng yuluo when he saw her, which was a bit unlike his arrogant personality.
Second brother, I think that the one beside her is sister yuluos grandmother. You should go over and say hello to the elders and leave a good impression! If you two can meet in the pce, its also a kind of marriage fate!
Jing Xi did not know PEI Xinhua, but judging from her age and appearance, she guessed that she was Zheng yuluos grandmother.
Or, you can just snatch sister yuluo from the old man! Second brother, youve changed. You werent like this before!
She still preferred the arrogant and fearless second brother!
Jing Zhi carried Jing Xi to the pce of peace and said,If I go over, people will think that Im going to provoke them, and it wont look good if we fight. I dont have a good temper. If the olddy said something mean and hurt her impulsively, Zheng yuluo would cry again.
Jing Xis eyes widened in disbelief.Second brother, did your head change after you shaved your head? Youre really going to be an eminent monk now!
She thought about it carefully and felt that what Jing Zhi said did make sense.
Jing Zhi was an impulsive man who didnt like to be sullen. The virus in his body had changed his body and his personality, making him violent andbative. Sometimes, he would get angry and hit people when he was annoyed.
Jing Xi had learned about the virus from Shuyin in detail. Unless ones willpower was extremely strong and could suppress the violent feelings brought by the virus, one would definitely be affected.
Jing Zhis impulsiveness wasnt voluntary, it was passive.
He was actually able to restrain himself now. Obviously, he was also distressed that Zheng yuluo had the upper hand. If it were someone else, he would not care if he broke the persons arms or legs.
However, in this way, wouldnt the two of them be further and further apart?
This didnt look like she was in love, she clearly looked like she wanted to be a stranger!
Second brother, why dont you change your girlfriend? my heart aches when I see you like this.
Jing Zhi suddenlyughed. He touched his sisters bald head and said, Im doing pretty well now, why the hell are you feeling heartache for? Even if I be a monk, Im sure therell be a lot of beautiful womening to the temple and throwing themselves into my arms!
Jing Xi immediately went to touch Jing Zhis bald head and said happily,Second brother, were going home today. Will brother feel that there are too many light bulbs in the house?
Hahaha! No, hell just beat us up until we cant even tell which direction were in!
The brother and sister were not the kind of people who would be sad in spring and sad in autumn, so they were happy again after a while.
Jing Xi was born to be happy. As long as she wanted to make Jing Zhi happy, he would be happy soon.
The two of them jumped up and down in Dayun temple and insisted on dancing with the old Abbot. The old Abbot was almost driven crazy by the two monkeys!
He was already so old and was originally a man of virtue and prestige, but now, his image waspletely destroyed!
However, why did he feel so much younger when he was with these two siblings?
Compared to Jing Zhi and Jing Xi, who were just having fun, Zheng yuluo knelt on the futon in the pce of marriage and felt the quiet and sacred atmosphere in the pce. Suddenly, she had the urge to be a monk.
If she couldnt spend the rest of her life with Jing Zhi, shed rather live in a temple and live the rest of her life with amp and Buddha.
She had no one to worry about except for Jing Zhi.
There were not only temples but also nunnery in A city, but it was a rtively simple one.
There had been a few big-name celebrities who had gone to qinxin nunnery in A city to meditate after they were too tired from the entertainment industry.
Qin Xin nunnery also became famous because of this.
Buddhist Dhyana cultivation could indeed make people lose their frivolity and enjoy the truth of life. In life, chaos was inevitable. Only Buddhist and Daoist sacrednds could give people a short period of peace.
Zheng yuluo did not believe in Buddhism. She was a true materialist.
She just liked the feeling of being out of it.
PEI Xinhua asked for a marriage stick for Zheng yuluo, and after spending 20 yuan to undo it, she was very happy and said to Zheng yuluo,
Luoluo, the master said that youll definitely marry a good husband in the future! He was rich and happy, very good! Now your father doesnt have to worry! Just forget about Jing Zhi in the future, focus on school, find a good job after graduation, and you wont have to worry about finding a partner!
Oh, right, I have to ask for another one for your sister! No, no, no, youre twins, so you should ask for it on behalf of your sister. The master said that the closer the blood rtions, the more urate it is!
As PEI Xinhua talked, Zheng yuluo followed her without a word and cooperated with her. No matter what PEI Xinhua asked her to do, she would do it obediently.
It was good to make the olddy happy.
Zheng yuluo had visited the entire Dayun temple, but Jing Zhi was nowhere to be seen. She even made an excuse with PEI Xinhua to go back to the Temple of Peace to take a look. Unfortunately, the monks in the temple had been reced by the real monks in the temple.
All of Zheng yuluos attention was drawn away in an instant. Without Jing Zhi in sight, she felt that there was nothing left in the temple that was worth reminiscing.
When she saw Jing Zhi just now, there was an obvious bruise on his face. Apparently, he had been hit by Zheng Jing yesterday.
Zheng yuluos heart ached a little, but the most painful thing was that she could not touch him and soothe his injuries even though they were so close just now.

Chapter 1246: The employer
Trantor: 549690339
The sky was dark, and dark clouds covered the sky. At around six or Seveno clock in the afternoon, it started to rain heavily in A city.
Jing Rui almost thought that he had gone to the wrong ce when he entered the living room in the heavy rain.
Who were the two high-watt light bulbs sitting in the living room?
Brother, youre back! Do you think my new hairstyle looks good? I was walking on the street with second brother today, and the number of heads turned was very high! There are so many handsome guys looking at me. Do you think theyve fallen in love with me?
Its not good!Jing Rui said, expressionless.
It would be hard for people to not turn their heads when these two baldies were walking on the street!
Jing Zhi was still very afraid of his brother. He was afraid that Jing Rui would be angry, so he quickly said,Brother, isnt summer here? I just took Xixi to get a short haircut. Do you want to get a short haircut too?
Short hair?
If their hair was considered short, could his hair be considered long?
He didnt even have a strand of hair, how could he have short hair!
He even dared to ask him to shave his head. Was he still going to be the president?
He had only been away for a day, and these two were up to no good!
You two are grounded from tomorrow onwards. Stay at home and dont go anywhere! Until the hair grows back to its original length!
Brother, please don t! Jing Xi wailed.I didnt know my hair was so long! Do I have to stay at home for years? Im going to go crazy, I have to go out and search for all kinds of handsome guys!
Youre thinking too much. Handsome guys dont like bald heads. Just stay at home!
Jing Zhi was afraid that he and Jing Xi would die if he continued, so he immediately changed the subject.Brother, you didnt find Shuyin?
I found it.
Then why didnt you bring her back?
Her mother wont let her.
Her mother?
At first, Jing Zhi thought that his brother was scolding her, but it took him a while to realize that he was really referring to Shuyins mother.
How is this possible? Didnt her mother die a long time ago? Lucas didnt kill him?
The truth isnt clear yet. Shuyin stayed there and didnte back with me because she wanted to find out the whole story.
Shuyins safety was obviously more important than her younger siblings bald heads. Her hair could grow back sooner orter, but what happened to Shuyin made Jing Rui feel uneasy.
She even has a half-sister. Ive checked, and shes the Li familys eldest daughter and the only heir. The Li family originally had more than one child, but in recent years, the rest of the children have died one after another for various reasons.
Brother, are you talking about Li Jing?
Jing Zhi didnt care about anything else. He stopped smiling and his expression became serious.
Yes! Jing Rui nodded.Thats her!
Jing Zhi gasped.
The Li family was an ancient family and had been passed down for as long as the Jing family. Of course, that was not the reason why the Li family was famous. The most famous thing about the Li family was that they were very active in having more children and then letting the children kill each other.
The current head of the Li family, Li Wu, used to have 12 brothers and sisters, all of whom were the children of his fathers close female friends. Li Wus mother was the wife who had officially proposed to him. The mother and son were ruthless. They had endured for 10 years and slowly killed Li Wus children one by one.
In this way, all the assets of the Li family had fallen into the hands of Li Wu alone.
This had caused a huge sensation at that time, but no one coulde up with any evidence to prove that those peoples deaths were rted to Li Wu, so the matter could only be left unsettled.
However, after Li Wu came to power, he was even crazier than his father. He kept women and then had children. He even had two sons who were born on the same day by different women.
Now, Li Jing had made the same mistake and slowly killed her fathers other children.
She didnt allow her fathers child to threaten her, but could she tolerate her mothers child living in this world?
ording to her personality, she would probably kill Shuyin sooner orter.
How could it be rted to the Li family?
Jing Zhi still couldnt believe it. Wasnt Shuyin an orphan? why did she suddenly have a mother and sister?
Family li was not from A city, but from another city. Although they were not as powerful as family Jing, they were not to be trifled with.
It was rumored that Li Wu loved Li Jing the most and that no matter what she did, she would receive the greatest support. Although he hadnt been out much in recent years, the Li family was still prosperous. Li Jing was able to do whatever she wanted in many ces and few people dared to provoke her.
Is Shuyin going to live with her mother and sister in the future? Brother, youre engaged. You should ask her toe back and live with you!
Jing Rui rubbed his eyebrows and said,She knows about the Shucheng mountain incident.
What?
Jing Zhi almost jumped out of the sofa.
This secret had been guarded by the two brothers all this time. How could it have been discovered!
He must not have told Shuyin, and Jing Rui would not have told her either. So who told her?
It was her mother, Jiang Manshu, who told Shuyin.
Jing Rui knew Jing Zhis confusion, so he gave him the answer before he asked.
How did her mother know?
This is also what I find strange.
Jing Rui had been thinking about this question for a long time. He had been thinking about where the loophole had been. It was not until today, when he saw Jiang Manshu again and felt her hidden hostility, that he finally thought of a possibility.
Unless, the person who hired Shu Chengshan to kill me with a huge bounty was Jiang Manshu.
Only the employer would know that the hired killer did notplete the task and was killed instead.
Shu Chengshan had once said that he knew a big secret. He knew who the employer was and wanted to use this secret to make Jing Rui marry Shu Yin.
But Jing Rui refused.
Jing Rui only knew that the employers English name was Cheryl, which was the same as Shuyin s.
Could it be that Jiang Manshus English name was the same as her daughter s?
Jing Zhi had always thought that his rtionship with Zheng yuluo was full of ups and downs and that it was already very sad. But when he looked at Jing Rui and Shuyin, he suddenly felt that what had happened between him and Zheng yuluo was just a small matter.
Shuyins mother paid for it, and her father worked hard to kill Jing Rui. After her father was forced to die by Jing Rui, her mother was still jumping around.
How were they going to live their days!
Shuyin had always been indifferent to her parents. If they had been closer, Shuyin would have probably stabbed Jing Rui!
Brother, cant you change to another woman? Shuyin was good, but how could she not care about the fact that her father had been killed? Didnt you say before that Shucheng Shan loved Shuyin a lot? Im afraid that one day
Youre thinking too much. That day wonte.
Then why didnt she go home?
Shell be home soon!

Jing Ruis prediction was right. Shuyin went home the next morning.
There were faint green shadows under her eyes. It was obvious that she hadnt had a good rest. Her face was a little pale, and her mental state wasparable to when she was tortured by the virus in the Research Institute.
Shuyin was in a bad mood at first, and she hadnt slept for a day and a night. She was also in a battle of wits with Jiang Manshu and Li Jing, so she was both mentally and physically exhausted.
However, when she saw the bald man ying games in the living room, she felt that it was very funny. She couldnt help but smile.Jing Zhi, your new hairstyle looks pretty good. Are you going to make a movie with Briar and Briar?
Aiya, little tree shade, youre back! Ive missed you so much!
Jing Zhi threw his phone away and shouted exaggeratedly. Then he went to carry Shuyin.
The moment Shuyin saw him get up, she quickly hid far away. She had a faint smile on her face.Your acting skills arent that great. Youll probably lose badly if youpete with bald man Qiang.
He was still in the mood to joke around. It seemed like things were not as serious as he thought.
Jing Zhi touched his bald head and said nonchntly,It doesnt matter if your acting skills are bad, as long as you have good looks! You, on the other hand, stayed out all night. If you continue like this, Ill find a few beautiful women to sleep with my brother!
Jing Zhi was capable of doing that, but Shuyin believed that Jing Rui would never let another woman sleep with him.
She couldnt guarantee that it would happen many yearster, but at least not for now.
Sure, youd better find him a few more. He might not like any of them.
Why are you so generous? Jing Zhi asked suspiciously.
Of course!
Shu Yin said as she walked upstairs.
Ive always been generous, especially to my own people. Tomorrow, Ill send ten handsome men to Zheng yuluo to chat, y, and sleep with her.
Hey, why are you so petty!
Jing Zhi was shouting from downstairs, but Shuyin felt much more rxed after messing around with him.
She pushed the door open and went into the bedroom. She put her backpack in the cab andy on the bed. She got into Jing Ruis arms and closed her eyes to rest.
Jing Rui opened his eyes, took her by the waist and kissed her forehead.
Why did youe back so early? Didnt you say that youd have to stay at least until night?
Shu Yin buried her face in Jing Ruis chest and said,I miss you.
Jing Rui hugged her tightly and said softly,Im afraid that you dont miss me. Im very happy to hear that you miss me.
He had always had a good nights sleep, but Shuyin wasnt aroundst night. He tossed and turned the entire night and couldnt fall asleep. It wasnt until this morning that he heard Shuyin and Jing Zhi talking that he felt at ease.
Now that he was holding her in his arms, the emptiness in his heart finally disappeared.
Shuyin waited for a while, but Jing Rui did not say anything. She looked up and asked,Dont you miss me? Just now Jing Zhi said hed find you a beauty to sleep with. Who did you sleep withst night?
He must have owed this younger brother in his past life!
If he had to pick up Shuyin, he would have lost her, and she was already making things worse for him so early in the morning!
Theres no such thing. Dont listen to his nonsense. If you want to know whether I miss you or not, Ill prove it to you. Actions are always more convincing than words!
Jing Rui said as he reached into Shuyins clothes.
Shuyin immediately stopped his hand.Don t, don t, don t. I believe you! She said. Jing Zhi is still outside. Dont do anything stupid.
Jing Zhis hearing was terrifying, and she didnt want him to eavesdrop.
Then Ill drive him away!
Jing Rui said and was about to get out of bed and go to the living room.
Shuyin didnt know whether tough or cry. She pulled him back.Its not easy for him to be bald. He can only be a monk when he goes out. Just let him stay here! Im tired and sleepy, I just want to sleep.
Downstairs, Jing Zhi vaguely heard Shuyin say something about being bald. He touched his head in confusion.Why is it not easy to be bald? Its quite easy, I dont even need to wash my hair!
He went to Jing Xis room and pulled the little girl out of the quilt.Little bald head, lets go. We still have to go to Dayun temple to deliver all living beings from suffering today. How can you bezy! When little Shenshues back, our brother will definitely find us an eyesore at home!
Jing Xi was wearing a cute pink nightdress and was lying on Jing Zhis body.Oh, Big Baldy, lets go!
Jing Zhi took Jing Xi to his house for breakfast and then went to Dayun temple to make a scene.
When the two of them came back that night, Shuyin saw that Jing Xi had also shaved her head. She was so shocked that she almost fell down the stairs!
Jing Zhi had be bald and strong, but how did Jing Xi be bald as well?
She was willing to part with her long hair.
That night, Jing Xi video-chatted with her mother as usual. Shangguan ning was surprised to see her daughter like this.Xixi, wheres your hair?
Cut it! Mom, dont you think that the video chat screen is especially bright tonight? Haha, its so power-saving!
Shangguan ning didnt know whether tough or cry. It was so bright that she was almost blinded by it.
We dont need that little bit of electricity. If you want it to be brighter in the future, ask your brother to add a few more lights. Dont let the image be so bright again.
Jing Yichen had been sitting next to Shangguan ning, peeling pine nuts for her. He didnt look at his daughter at first, but when he heard the strange conversation between his wife and daughter, he couldnt help but move closer to take a look.
In the middle of the video, a small, bald head was shaking. Even though Jing Yichen had been prepared for it, he still felt that he was Blinded by the Light.
Xixi, are you going to be a monk?
Jing Xis eyes lit up.Dad, youre so amazing! How do you know everything?
She had wanted to lie, but thankfully, she didn t. Her father had only taken one look at her and guessed the truth. It was a little scary!
She had to quickly praise her father so that he would not be angry.
Dont mess around. Go to school properly and dont stop etiquette ss.
Yes, yes, yes, I wont mess around! I go to school every day, and my etiquette teacher always praises me!
Jing Xi lied without blinking, because Jing Yichen would know that she was lying if she hesitated for even a second or if she did not adjust her expression.
She still liked to chat with her mother. Her mother trusted her a lot.
Wheres dad?
Sigh, I cant say anymore. With a father like Sherlock Holmes, Jing Xi could only keep improving her lying skills.
Luckily, Jing Yichen was not a strict man. As long as Shangguan ning liked him, he would not say anything.
He sat back in his original seat and continued to peel pine nuts with his long fingers. Then he fed them to Shangguan nings lips one by one.
Shangguan ning opened her mouth and ate it out of habit. Then she kissed Jing Yichens perfect side face with a smile. It was so intimate and natural. She was so happy.
Jing Xi rested her chin on her hand and said,Mom, were video chatting. Are you and dad going to torture the dogs too? If you guys are like this, Ill have to raise my standards for a boyfriend in the future!

The next day, Jing Xi went to the Dayun temple with Jing Zhi in high spirits. She ran around the temple in a small Kasaya and took a bottle to the spring in the temple to drink from the spring water. She also ate the little tomatoes nted by the old master. Jing Zhi made a for her and tied it to a branch to catch cicadas and dragonflies.
Her small figure ran around the mountain, as happy as a little bird.
Lou Ziling had been staying in Dayun temple for the past few days. He had deliberately chosen a quiet room that was not open to tourists. In the end, there was still a bird chirping, which made him unable to sleep well.
He opened the window and looked at the faintly visible figure jumping in the forest. He said with a cold face,Whose child is this, what are you shouting for! Go y somewhere else!
Lou Ziling knew it was a young girl from the voice. But when Jing Xi came out of the forest and saw that she was a young monk, Lou Ziling was stunned.
Wasnt this little monk a little too beautiful?
Lou Ziling would have thought that she was a girl if she did not wear the monks clothes and had shaved her head.
Lou Ziling knew almost all the monks in Dayun temple. He had an excellent memory and would never forget them. Judging from Jing Xis appearance, he guessed that she had just been taken in.
Only orphans who had just been taken in could be so happy and noisy in the temple. After being taken in for a long time, they would slowly restrain their emotions and not be too active.
Youre a boy?Lou Ziling asked after a while.
Jing Xi blinked and said innocently,Of course. Are there any female monks in Dayun temple? But are you a girl? Youre so pretty!
To be honest, Lou Ziling was indeed beautiful. Jing Xi thought she was beautiful, but Lou Ziling was almost the most beautiful woman in the world!
So, even though Jing Xi could tell that his voice was a boy s, she still asked him if he was a girl.
The little girls voice was clear and melodious, like an Oriole. It was pleasant to the ear, making people feel asfortable as eating an ice fruit on a hot day.
However, Lou Zilings face darkened when she was called a girl and was pretty. She liked Jing Xis voice a little.
Lou Ziling had always been entric and entric. If Jing Xi was not just a child, and most likely an orphan newly adopted by Dayun temple, he would have scolded her.
He suppressed his anger and said indifferently,Go y further away, I want to rest. Youre too noisy!
Jing Xi could not help but be shocked. Someone actually dared to say that she was noisy?
Shouting randomly?
She wasnt a frog!
No one had everined that she was noisy!
Jing Xi was obsessed with looks. Her whole family was beautiful beyond belief, so she naturally had high standards. It was not easy for her to meet a stunning beauty today. She had wanted to talk nicely, but this stunning beauty rejected her, so she was not very happy.
When she was unhappy, someone else would be in trouble.
Lou Ziling didnt take Jing Xis words to heart and continued to sleep.
The Lou family had been in a mess recently. Lou Ziling was annoyed and moved to Dayun temple. He would rather be poisoned by the tourists and incense ashes than be disgusted by the hypocritical looks of his brothers and sisters.
In any case, the matters of the Lou family had always been controlled by his uncles family. His parents were wise enough to protect themselves and never snatched power.
As long as the Jing family was reasonable, they would not crush the Lou family into meat paste. It would not be good for the Jing family to lose such an arm. ording to the recent situation, Lou Ziling felt that the person in charge of the Lou family would be his father, Lou Mingyang.
It was her cousin Lou ruofu who had caused the trouble and insisted on marrying Jing Rui, not her own sister Lou ruofei. Lou Ziling did not care about her uncles family.
The Lou family had been controlled by his uncles family for so many years. When his grandfather passed away, the family property was divided equally. However, it was all taken away by Lou mingzhen in less than two years.
Everyone knew that the eldest son of the Lou family, Lou Zirong, was calm and capable. They also knew that Lou ruofu was gentle, virtuous, and had outstanding looks. But how many people knew about Lou ruofei and Lou Ziling?
Lou Ziling had no sense of belonging to his family. He fell into a deep sleep. The air in the temple on the mountainside was fresh and quiet. It was worth it to spend more money.
However, Lou Ziling was woken up by the cold.
He opened his eyes and saw that he waspletely drenched. Half of the ice had melted at the head of the bed and the end of the bed. There was a big hole in the ceiling above his head, and arge block of ice was hanging from it with a, dripping with ice water!
Lou Ziling was still in a daze, but when she saw this scene, all her sleepiness disappeared.
He immediately wanted to get up, but his usual agile skills were no longer there!
His hands and feet were as heavy as lead, and he couldnt use any strength at all. Just the action of getting out of bed had exhausted all his strength!
Who did this?
Lou Ziling was so angry that his face turned red. He was not a good-tempered person and he was about to explode!
Someone actually dared to scheme against him?
He had just returned from abroad not long ago, and he had not even had the time to make enemies with anyone. Why did someone want to kill him?
The beautiful face of Jing Xi shed across Lou Zilings mind, but she quickly rejected the candidate.
It was impossible. The little monk looked like a child. She couldnt get so much ice on her own.
Moreover, he had only berated her a little, so it couldnt be considered as making enemies, right?
Could it be the Jing family?
The Lou family and the Jing family were in a heated argument, and it was possible that the Jing family would attack him.
However, it didnt look like he wanted to kill him. At most, he would just make him suffer a little.
Lou Ziling was drenched as shey on the bluestone floor. Her mind was spinning rapidly.
Although he didnt guess the reason for the prank, he guessed thest name of the prankster by chance.
Jing Xi looked at Lou Zilings embarrassed face with a pair of binocrs andughed in Jing Zhis arms.Aiya, second brother, youre so strong. You can even move such a big piece of ice!
Jing Zhis smile was forced,girl, Im just following you around! If our brother knew that we used his helicopter to send ice, would he send us to Mars?
Jing Xi got up and patted Jing Zhis head.Second brother, dont be afraid. Be good. Ill take care of this! When big brother asks, Ill just say that someone bullied me. Im just venting my anger.
Second brother, hes quite good-looking. Do you think hell like me when I grow my hair?
Jing Zhis mouth twitched. She had beaten him half to death and still wanted him to like her?
Chapter 1249
Chapter 1249: Ignored
Trantor: 549690339
But Jing Zhi was still very supportive. He asked,Wait until your hair reaches your waist, and let him marry you?
Jing Xi burst intoughter and patted Jing Zhis head.This is good, this is good! I want my hair to reach my waist!
Jing Zhi nced at his sisters shiny little head. He didnt know how many years it would take for her hair to reach her waist. By then, she would havepletely forgotten about him and would definitely take a fancy to a new target.
Jing Zhi grabbed his sisters hand helplessly. Dont pretend to be an adult and Pat your brothers head. You have to take your time to grow your long hair to your waist. You should be more obedient these few days and dont keep using the virus to harm people. I saw that kid sleeping like a pig just now. He didnt even know that there was ice on top of his nket. Its not good if something happens!
Dont worry, I didnt use any virus. I just used a bit of knockout powder, haha! At most, its just a cold. Im the best at treating cold viruses!
The next day, when Jing Xi came to Dayun temple again, she saw Lou Ziling feeling sick. Her originally fair face was particrly pale, and she kept coughing.
He was wearing the simplest Nicole White short-sleeved T-shirt and a pair of light gray sweatpants. Even though he had a cold, he still stood tall and straight. There was a sense of coldness in his handsomeness, and he exuded a sense of istion that kept people away. He seemed a little out of ce in the lively crowd around him.
He was carrying medicine in his hand. It was obvious that he had just returned from going down the mountain to buy medicine.
He looked a little cold. The bright sun shone on him, but it made people feel that no warmth could prate his heart.
Jing Xi looked at his handsome face and felt that it was a pity. She still preferred men like mu Sen and Lou Ziyi, not such a cold and unsociable person.
Her eldest brother, second brother, and father were all cold-looking people, and Jing Xi didnt want to have another person like that around her.
However, not including Lou Ziling in his harem did not mean that he had to avoid her and not say a word to her.
Jing Xi actually felt a little guilty that she had caused Lou Ziling to catch a cold.
After all, Lou Ziling had only scolded her a little yesterday. She should have just scolded him and not tormented him like that.
Jing Xi walked out of the crowd and walked to Lou Zilings side. She put her hands together, looked up, and said in a childish voice,Benefactor, do you have a cold? Drink more water and eat more fruits, theyre full of vitamins!
She greeted Lou Ziling with a smile and wanted to apologize to her! However, Lou Ziling walked past her without even looking at her, as if she didnt see her.
Jing Xi did not believe it. She touched her face and touched her hairless head. Then she trotted to Lou Zilings leg and said,
Whats your name? Where do you live?
Dont tell me youve been living in our Dayun temple all this time? I havent seen you before!
You want to be a monk too?
Youre so good-looking, you shouldnt be a monk!
As if he had gone deaf, Lou Ziling took his medicine and avoided Jing Xi. He strode away with his long legs. From the beginning to the end, he did not even look at Jing Xi.
It was as if Jing Xi was just air and did not exist in his world.
Jing Xi was almost angered by Lou Zilings cold and arrogant look.
Even if he couldnt see her because she was small, she still had a bright and shiny forehead. It glowed under the sun and wasparable to thenterns in Dayun temple. He couldnt see it. He was blind!
Jing Xi red at Lou Zilings back angrily, while Jing Zhiughed so hard that his stomach hurt.
This was the first time he had seen the mischievous Jing Xi being defeated!
God, she had never seen her sister being ignored sopletely. The little girl was always surrounded by people wherever she went. When she came to Dayun temple, she quickly won the favor of many people even though no one knew that she was the daughter of family Jing.
She didnt know where this kid came from, but he was full of arrogance and had a stunning appearance. Even girls would feel inferior in front of him.
There was such a person in A city?
Looking at his childish appearance, it was obvious that he had not grown up. Who knew how many young girls he would harm when he grew up!
Jing Zhi found it interesting. He went up and hugged Jing Xi. He smiled and said,
Alright, she obviously doesnt like you, so dont worry about her catching a cold. If it were me, I wouldnt even catch a cold even if I stayed in the refrigerator for a day. He fell sick after being doused with some cold water. How can he protect you in the future when hes so weak?
Jing Xi was in good health and Shangguan ning had always taken good care of her. She had caught a cold countless times in her life, so she couldnt understand how Lou Ziling could catch such a serious cold.
However, she knew that her family was not normal, especially Jing Zhi. He had no idea what a cold was.
Although she was ignored by Lou Ziling just now, she still put in a good word for Lou Ziling.He cant bepared to you. The ice was so cold yesterday, and he was drugged by me and couldnt move. He was lying on the ground for so long, so its normal for him to be frozen.
Jing Zhi looked at her in surprise,Oh, did the sun rise from the West today? I thought you were going to give that kid a good scolding. Why did you speak up for him?
Jing Xi immediately said angrily,Curse, how can I not curse! He was blind, deaf, and crazy. His nostrils were almost raised to the sky! Hmph, yesterdays ice wasnt strong enough. I should have thrown him into the ice Mountain and frozen him so that he wont be able toe out for the rest of his life!
She cursed the entire way and followed Jing Zhi back to their guest room for an afternoon nap. After she finished eating arge pile of tomatoes, she was no longer angry. She couldnt help but go to Lou Zilings guest room.
The window of Lou Zilings room was open, and the windows of the temple were lower. Jing Xi could not only hear his coughing, but also see that he was busy with hisptop.
The midday sun shone through the window and filled the entire room. He was the only one sitting on the bluestone floor in the corner. He was shrouded in shadows and felt inexplicably lonely.
Jing Xi picked up a small stone and threw it at Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling raised her head and saw a beautiful face outside the window.
She tilted her head, her eyes shining like gemstones, and the expression on her face was vivid, making all the flowers and Willows outside the window pale inparison.
Hey, are you feeling better? Have you taken your medicine?
Her voice was as clear and melodious as ever. Even though she had shaved her head, her red lips and white teeth, as well as her delicate and wless facial features, made her look full of vitality and lively.
Lou Ziling lowered her head and continued to type on the keyboard with her slender fingers. She said in a calm and firm tone,
Youre a girl!

Chapter 1250: The kiss in front of Buddha
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling didnt answer her question, and Jing Xi was a little speechless.
How did he guess that she was a girl?
She had already told him that she was a boy yesterday and he had believed her. How did he suddenly find out the truth?
Many people had guessed that she was a girl, but as long as she denied it, no one would suspect her.
After all, Dayun temple was a ce where monks lived. There would not be any nuns.
How did you know?
Jing Xi leaned against the window and asked Lou Ziling curiously.
Lou Ziling ignored her and continued with her work.
His face was a little pale, and even though he was sitting on the ground, he was like an unsheathed sword, sharp and hurtful.
Usually, there were very few people who were willing to talk to him. Even his sister, Lou ruofei, would be angered to death by him after talking to him for a few words and would not say more.
However, Jing Xis heart seemed to be as solid as an iron wall, and she didnt care about his stab at all.
How old are you? Where do you live? Where do you go to school? What do you like to eat? What color do you like?
Jing Xi asked a lot of questions, but Lou Ziling did not look up at her again.
She didnt mind and just stood outside the window talking non-stop.
After a while, Lou Ziling finally couldnt stand it anymore. She put down herptop, stood up, and pushed Jing Xis head away. Then she closed the window with a bang.
Jing Xi pouted and stomped her feet in anger. She scolded him outside,Youre a bad guy!
She had felt guilty for making him catch a cold, but now she didnt feel guilty at all.
Jing Zhi, who was lying on a branch not far away, said leisurely when he saw the little devil suffer another setback,Young man, you have a bright future!
Jing Xi left in a Huff and went to the main hall in front of the temple. She saw touristsing and going, and soon her attention was attracted by the handsome man among the tourists. It didnt take long for her to forget about Lou Ziling.
A monk as handsome as Jing Zhi was the only one in Dayun temple. Because of his presence, the number of visitors had increased. Some people, especially girls, came again just to see Jing Zhi.
The three girls who hade to y gathered together and mumbled to each other as they looked at Jing Zhi, who was sitting cross-legged.
Lets go get his phone number. WeChat will do too!
Do monks use WeChat too?
Are monks not allowed to fall in love? What if I want to date him?
They thought Jing Zhi couldnt hear them, but in fact, he could hear them clearly.
He was a little smug. Look at how well-liked he was!
Jing Zhis eyes swept over the people in the hall and he suddenly saw a figure.
That person was looking at him in a daze, seemingly unaware of his thin body being bumped around.
Jing Zhi wanted to ignore her, but even when he turned his head, he couldnt get rid of her.
He got up angrily and walked out, but he came back in less than a minute. He grabbed Zheng yuluos hand and pulled her out.
The girls who had been infatuated with Jing Zhi just now saw him drag a pretty girl away without saying a word. The girl didnt resist at all and followed him obediently.
They were simply heartbroken!
Did this monk have a girlfriend?
Oh my God, even monks have girlfriends now, but they are still single!
Zheng yuluo was dragged out by Jing Zhi. Her hand was wrapped in his big hand, which made her feel a little unreal.
She was only here to try her luck today. She had met Jing Zhi once at Dayun temple. He had shaved his head and might be staying at Dayun temple for a while.
She couldnt suppress her longing for him, and she couldnt help bute here.
He was indeed here!
Zheng yuluo almost cried tears of joy!
When Jing Zhi came over and took her hand, she was a little confused.
They passed through the crowd, a small square, a pine forest, and came to a side hall with few people.
There was a tall Buddha statue in the side hall. Jing Zhi pulled Zheng yuluo behind the Buddha statue and looked at her quietly. Then he held her waist and lowered his head to kiss her.
This is terrible!
This was a temple!
There was a huge Buddha behind her, and there were people burning incense and praying to the Buddha outside. Would they be struck by lightning if they did such a thing in front of the Buddha?
Moreover, Jing Zhi had shaved his head and was wearing a monks robe, which made Zheng yuluos psychological barrier very big.
Jing Zhi, dont do this. Not here
Zheng yuluos resistance was a little intense. Jing Zhi had wanted to swallow her up, but he could only suppress his desire and ask her in a low voice,Whats wrong?
This is a temple. You cant do it.
Zheng yuluos voice was urgent and flustered, and her tone was full of pleading.
Jing Zhi frowned,I cant kiss you in the temple? Dont worry, the Buddha wont care that much. Hell turn a blind eye when he sees us being intimate.
He was not a believer. Although he had learned some Dharma from the abbot these two days, he had grown up in the West after the age of ten and had no fear of Buddha.
Although Zheng yuluo was not a devout Buddhist, she still felt that there was a God above her. She did not dare to do such a thing behind such a majestic Buddha statue.
No, no, Im scared here!
Zheng yuluo refused to let Jing Zhi kiss her again. If it were in the past, Jing Zhi would have done Zheng yuluo right there and then without a second thought.
However, looking at her flustered look now, he would rather put himself in a difficult position than to put Zheng yuluo in a difficult position.
His feelings for Zheng yuluo were slowly deepening. He no longer only cared about his own happiness andfort, but more about Zheng yuluos emotions.
Alright, not here. Lets go somewhere else, he said in a low voice.
He held Zheng yuluos hand tightly and led her out from behind the Buddha statue. This shocked the tourists who had juste in to offer incense.
The tourist looked at Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo with a strange look, his face full of surprise and disbelief.
The private life of a monk from Dayun temple shouldnt be so chaotic, right? Messing around behind the Buddha statue?
Zheng yuluo was too shy to look up, but Jing Zhi didnt take it to heart at all. He took Zheng yuluo to the guest room that he and Jing Xiwu were staying in.
The guest rooms in the temple were extremely simple. There were only two beds, a table, and a chair, which was in line with the usual style of the Dayun temple.
As soon as Jing Zhi entered the door, he pressed Zheng yuluo against the door and kissed her like rain, breaking thest defense in Zheng yuluos heart.
Zheng yuluo stood on her tiptoes, wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis neck, and kissed him as she cried.
Jing Zhis familiar yet foreign breath lingered between her lips and teeth. His kisses were overbearing and hurried, as if he wanted to eat her up. He didnt give her any chance to breathe.
Zheng yuluo felt that she had forgotten everything at that moment. She wished she could merge into Jing Zhis body and never be separated from him again.
Chapter 1251
Chapter 1251: Being kidnapped
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi was wandering around the temple alone. She had just seen Jing Zhi, but he was gone in a short while.
Did you go to the toilet?
Jing Xi hummed a song as she jumped around. She didnt care where Jing Zhi went. She put the stolen tomatoes in her robe and sat on a big rock to eat them.
The little tomatoes nted by the old host were not only sweet, but they were alsopletely green and unpolluted. Unfortunately, she had stolen almost all of them, and the rest were all green.
She was thinking of getting her brother to air-transport some small tomato seedlings and nt them in the temple. When they ripened, she could eat them as she pleased!
She was eating happily when she was suddenly hit on the head.
The pain hit her, and she only had time to scream before she fell into darkness.
The few small tomatoes that she couldnt bear to eat the most red fell to the ground and were ruthlessly crushed by the person who came. If she saw this scene, she would definitely be so angry that she would curse.
The first person to realize that Jing Xi was missing was not Jing Zhi, who was still stuck with Zheng yuluo, or the person who was hiding in the crowd but was deliberately tripped by someone to protect Jing Xi. It was Lou Ziling.
He had been running a fever, and it was useless to take fever medicine. He wanted to go to Dayun temple for an injection, but before he could go out, he met Jing Xi on the road, who was being carried on a shoulder.
Although Jing Xi was wearing a monks robe and the person carrying her was also wearing a monks robe, as if she had fallen asleep and was carried back by the elders, Lou Ziling saw the w at first nce.
First, he had met all the monks in Dayun temple and knew all of them.
Second, the man was not really bald. He was only wearing a baldie, and the few strands of hair exposed at the back of his head betrayed him.
Third, if he didnt have other motives, he wouldnt have disguised himself as a monk with a monks robe and hood.
Human traffickers?
How arrogant! He dared toe to Dayun temple to steal a young monk and sell him!
However, what did this have to do with him?
He didnt even know Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling had always thought that he would never do such a thing in his world. He would save whoever he wanted to save. Anyway, he would not save anyone for no reason.
He walked past the fake monk who was carrying Jing Xi and strode down the mountain.
However, when he reached the foot of the mountain, he met the fake monk again.
Jing Xi was still lying unconscious on the fake monks shoulder. Her young face had lost its luster and liveliness under the sun. She didnt know what kind of pain and torture awaited her.
If the human traffickers found out that she was a girl, it was uncertain where they would send her.
Such a beautiful girl could be sold to a pedophile for a very high price. To some extent, girls would be more valuable than boys.
Lou Ziling stopped and looked at the fake monk running away. He suddenly remembered Jing Xi standing outside his window and talking to him with her head tilted.
She was mischievous, happy, and lively. In her beautiful eyes, there was naivety, purity, and beauty.
Forget it, Lou Ziling. Im just saving a person. Ive been living in Dayun temple for so long and have been freeloading. Its time to save the little monk.
Lou Ziling touched her forehead, which was burning, and followed him with a frown.
Lou Ziling had never risked his life to save someone. He was not used to being a good person all of a sudden.
However, Jing Xis face kept swaying in front of him, tempting him to keep moving forward.
Half an hourter, Jing Zhi found out from the bodyguards that Jing Xi had gone missing.
He looked at Zheng yuluo, whose clothes were a little messy, and felt angry and bitter.
Was it true that as long as he met Zheng yuluo, bad things would definitely happen?
How many times had it been?
There were too many of them to count!
Before he could do anything to Zheng yuluo, Jing Xi was gone!
When Shuyin disappeared, Jing Zhi would only be a little worried, but not in pain. But when Jing Xi disappeared, it was like he was being gnawed at!
He was in so much pain that he felt like his heart was being torn apart!
The people who were protecting Jing Xi were Jing Yichens men. When Jing Xi went missing, they reported it to Jing Yichen and then to Jing Rui.
At the same time, Jing Yichen had taken Shangguan ning back to the country in the helicopter.
Jing Yichen didnt tell Shangguan ning the truth. He only told her that Jingsheng enterprise had run into some problems and needed him toe back to help his son. He didnt mention anything about Jing Xi.
If Shangguan ning had known that her daughter was missing, she would have passed out.
She loved Jing Xi so much that she would usually cry when she bumped into her. She would definitely find it difficult to ept such a big thing.
Jing Rui arrived at the Dayun temple as fast as he could. He did not even care about Shuyin.
When he saw Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo, he almost beat Jing Zhi to the ground.
It was Zheng yuluo again!
Jing Rui was not a superstitious person, but he was.
He suspected that if Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo were together, family Jing would be destroyed.
Jing Rui did not have time to deal with Jing Zhi. He listened to the bodyguards description carefully and interrogated the people who were caught by the bodyguard. Then he ordered his men to start the search.
It was alreadyte at night when Jing Yichen arrived at A city.
He sent Shangguan ning home calmly and then drove to Jing Ruis ce.
Shuyin went to Jiang Manshus ce. She suspected that this matter might be rted to Jiang Manshu, so she had already gone to investigate.
Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were sitting in the living room, and the atmosphere was very tense. When Jing Yichen walked in, the atmosphere became even more tense.
How is it? Tell me the progress!
This was the first time that Jing Xi had beenpletely out of Jing Yichens control since she was born. He was so angry that he almost couldnt control himself.
A daughter was different from a son. If the son had to suffer a little, so be it, but not the daughter!
Dad, all the roads out of A city have been blocked, and all vehicles have been strictly inspected. Xixi should still be in A city! The search area is shrinking, and well have results by tomorrow morning.
Jing Yichen finally let out a sigh of relief. It was good that she was still in A city.
He was most afraid that Jing Xi would disappear into thin air like Jing Zhi did in the past. He couldnt find her no matter how hard he tried, not even leaving a trace behind.
The person who took Jing Xi away was far less skilled than a high-level institution like the Research Institute, so he still left traces.
There were many tourists at Dayun temple that day, and many of them had seen Jing Xi being taken away.
Jing Xi was woken up by the pain. She kept feeling a terrible headache. She tried to open her eyes and touched them. They were all covered in blood!
Then, she found herself in the back seat of a car. Her feet were tied and her mouth was taped shut.
It was dark outside, and only the lights in the car gave off a faint light.
She blinked her eyes, feeling a little dazed.
She was Kidnapped?
She was in so much pain that she wanted to scold someone. Who the hell was so blind?

Trantor: 549690339
In addition to Jing Xi, there was a man in the drivers seat and a man in the passengers seat. Neither of them spoke, and they just drove fast, as if someone was chasing them.
Jing Xi didnt know where she was. She was dizzy from the bumpy ride. It was almost impossible to escape in this situation.
Although she was very angry, she didnt panic. In her mind, her brothers should have sent people to look for her when she was lost. With the power of family Jing, they would find her sooner orter.
What she needed to do now was to be obedient and pretend not to be awake.
Jing Xi closed her eyes again and pretended to faint. After a while, she heard the two people in front of her cursing,Im so F * cking unlucky. Why are there so many police officers on the road today? I keep feeling that somethings not right!
Dont think too much. Weve been doing this for so long, when has anything ever happened? Dayun temple has taken in so many orphans, they dont mind losing one. They wont call the police, dont worry!
Thats true! At worst, we can just kill that little monk and throw him into the sea. No one will know!
As they spoke, they turned to look at Jing Xi, who was still unconscious in the back seat of the car. They looked at each other and turned into a small road.
In order to catch Jing Xi, they had made all kinds of preparations in advance, including thending point.
However, they had just entered the small path when they were stopped in front.
The cars high beam lights were on and shone on the person blocking the road, illuminating his entire body.
Brat, hurry up and get lost for your Grandpa!
Lou Ziling looked at the license te and the driver. After making sure that she didnt g down the wrong car, she frowned and said,Give me the little monk, and you two can get lost!
When they heard Lou Ziling say little monk, they immediately became alert.
They decided to ignore Lou Ziling and hit him with their car.
Lou Ziling turned over andnded on the roof of the car.
Jing Xi was still confused when she saw a man break the car window and get in.
The ss shards fell on her body, and she subconsciously used her hands to block them,pletely forgetting that she should pretend to be unconscious.
The moment she blocked the broken window, Lou Ziling had already started fighting with the two people in the car.
He was not an adult yet he was not at a disadvantage when fighting against two men!
The car was swerving, but Lou Ziling didnt seem to be affected at all. Her movements were sharp and decisive. She took care of one of them in a short time and then kicked the other one out of the window.
The whole process only took two minutes!
The two fierce-looking men couldnt even withstand a single blow from Lou Ziling. He killed his opponents as easily as cutting vegetables.
Jing Xi was dumbfounded!
She recognized Lou Ziling. She didnt expect that the person who came to save her would be Lou Ziling, who had always ignored her!
She didnt expect Lou Ziling, who looked so thin and weak, to be so good at fighting!
Lou Ziling kicked the two of them out of the window and sat in the drivers seat. She drove the car in the dark without saying a word.
Jing Xi sat up in a hurry. She tore off the tape on her mouth and untied the rope on her feet. Then she climbed to the passenger seat from the back of the car and looked at Lou Ziling with admiration.
Thank you for saving me! Youre so powerful, even more powerful than my two brothers!
Jing Rui and Jing Zhi, who had been trained as professional killers for seven years, would have sneered if they had known that their sister had stepped on Lou Ziling.
Jing Xi had never seen the two of them fight. She was saved by Lou Ziling, and she thought that Lou Ziling was the best.
Lou Ziling didnt even look at Jing Xi. Her eyes were still fixed on the front, and she moved forward in the dark ording to her feelings.
The navigation in this broken car was no longer working, and his phone was out of battery. This ce was very far away. Lou Ziling was trying to find the way back based on her memory. Otherwise, she wouldnt be able to go back.
He hated noise and had no desire to talk to Jing Xi.
He felt that there must be something wrong with his brain. He hade to save a stranger for no reason and not go for a fever injection. Sacrificing himself for others was what Lei Feng did. How could a person like him be Lei Feng?
However, what was going on with this little girl saying that she had two older brothers?
She wasnt an orphan taken in by Dayun temple?
Or were her so-called two brothers the monks of Dayun temple?
This doubt only shed through Lou Zilings mind once, and then he didnt care about it anymore. What Jing Xi was doing had nothing to do with him.
However, Jing Xi did not care about Lou Zilings indifference at all. She was so excited that she did not even feel the pain on her head.
Her eyes sparkled as she asked in a crisp voice,Why are you here? Arent you in Dayun temple? Did youe here to save me?
Oh my God, I didnt know you were such a good person! Thank you. When I find my brother, Ill make him thank you properly!
You were so cool just now! The two bastards were beaten up like they were in a movie!
Fortunately, you came. They were just discussing about killing me and throwing me into the sea to feed the fish! Im so scared!
Seeing Lou Zilings pale face and coughing from time to time, Jing Xi immediately asked,Are you still sick? Do you have a fever?
She didnt dare to say that she was the one who caused Lou Ziling to catch a cold. What if Lou Ziling got angry and threw her out of the car?
Jing Xi took out half a bottle of water and handed it to Lou Ziling.My brother said to drink more water if you have a cold. You should drink some!
Lou Ziling suddenly had the urge to throw Jing Xi out of the car!
This girl was too good at talking!
She even gave him the water that the two human traffickers had drunk, did she think he was a beggar?
Seeing that Lou Ziling didnt take it, Jing Xi couldnt help but reach out and touch his forehead.
Lou Ziling dodged subconsciously, but she lost control of the steering wheel and the car tilted.
Jing Xi suddenly bumped into Lou Ziling.
Aiyo, it hurts so much!
There was a deep wound on her head. The bleeding had stopped, but with this bump, the wound opened up again.
Fresh blood gushed out and stained Lou Zilings white T-shirt.
He mmed on the brakes and frowned at the wound on Jing Xis head. He asked coldly,Why didnt you tell me you were injured?
He had been talking nonsense all the way, didnt his wound hurt?
The little girl was quite patient.
There was no vige or shop here, so it was impossible to find a hospital in a short time. There was no gauze or anything like that in the car. Lou Ziling scanned the car and found nothing that could be used to bandage Jing Xis wound. In the end, she could only resign herself to fate and take off her white T-shirt.

Jing Xis eyes widened as she stared at the naked Lou Ziling.
Wow, whats going on?!
Why did this person take off his clothes to seduce her?
She was still a little loli, so this Wasnt very good, right?
She was already drooling over Lou Ziling. The moment he took off his clothes, she wanted to pounce on him and bite him.
Tsk, tsk, tsk. He looked quite thin before, but he didnt expect his body to be so strong. His pectoral and abdominal muscles were very obvious. It seemed that he had worked out a lot.
She had thought that Lou Ziling was too weak to even stand a gust of wind!
However, from the way he fought with those two people, he must have been trained.
He had been living in Dayun temple. Did he Learn Kung Fu from the monks of Dayun temple?
It was said that the old hosts Kung Fu was very good!
Jing Xi was excited and shy at the same time. She felt that she was a big girl now, and she was a little embarrassed to see a young man undressing in front of her.
She hadpletely forgotten that Jing Zhi used to carry her around topless, and she didnt feel embarrassed at all.
Lou Ziling ignored Jing Xis gaze. With a cold face, he tore his favorite limited edition T-shirt into strips of cloth and bandaged Jing Xis wound.
Jing Xi finally realized that she had been overthinking. He was not seducing her at all. He just wanted to help her bandage her wound.
She looked down at her t figure and felt sad for her age for the umpteenth time.
Why arent you growing up? if you dont grow up, all The Good Men will find a wife!
Lou Ziling quickly bandaged her wound. Jing Xi thanked him and leaned back in her seat.How old are you this year? do you have a girlfriend?
Lou Ziling had always ignored such boring questions. It was fine if his family asked him this question, but why did he even ask this little girl?
Was this the current trend?
He wasnt very old, but his tone sounded like he was an old man,pletely different from his previous lively and childish appearance.
Lou Ziling didnt answer, but Jing Xi was already used to it. She answered her own question,Youre so handsome, you must have a girlfriend! How can you not know how to respect yourself? Sigh, now all the good cabbage has been eaten by pigs!
Lou Ziling trembled and almost choked on her own saliva.
What cabbage and pig?
Is this how you use these words?
The little monk was really uncultured. He had to raise his opinion to the old Abbotter. Dayun temple could not only talk about Buddhist scriptures, but also give cultural lessons to the little monks!
After walking for a while, they came across a small clinic that was closed. Lou Ziling shouted a few times, but no one answered. So, she picked the lock and went in.
Jing Xi followed Lou Ziling closely. She didnt think there was anything wrong with breaking into someones clinic. After all, she often did such things as picking locks.
It was an emergency, and her head was still hurting. She needed to treat her wound urgently.
Unfortunately, she was penniless now and couldnt even leave some money for the clinic.
Lou Ziling entered the clinic, turned on the light, and took out a few bottles of medicine. She then found an unopened syringe and injected herself with the medicine without hesitation.
Jing Xi was shocked. Lou Zilings series of actions looked like he was injecting himself with drugs!
She picked up the empty bottle that Lou Ziling had thrown away. She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the words pound ammonia barbarbitone written on it.
So you really have a fever. Thank you foring to save me.
This was the umpteenth time that Jing Xi had thanked Lou Ziling. Lou Ziling felt that he had not saved her for nothing. At least she knew how to be grateful.
However, what surprised him the most was not that Jing Xi knew how to be grateful at such a young age, but that she actually knew about thepound ammonia barbarbitone!
Compound aminlin barbarian was a medical term. People usually called it fever-reducing needle. An average adult would be confused when they heard this term. How did this little girl know?
Thinking about it carefully, Lou Ziling suddenly realized that Jing Xi was actually very different from most of the children her age.
Just now, she was kidnapped by two people, but she was very calm from beginning to end. She did not cry, did not panic, and even knew to pretend to faint.
He had beaten the two of them half-dead and thrown them on the road, but she didnt say a word at all. She was so calm that she didnt even look like a child!
She knew very well that he was here to save her, so she followed him without a second word. She didnt suspect that he was up to no good.
She spoke clearly and her words and actions were different from ordinary children. Just by looking at her standing there with her back straight, she had a different temperament.
Yes, even though she was still young, one could see the difference in her temperament.
For the first time, Lou Ziling was suspicious of Jing Xis identity. Why would Dayun temple ept a girl as a monk?
Unless the girl was so special that Dayun temple had to ept her.
He looked at Jing Xi deeply, but did not ask any further.
Lou Ziling was used to being alone. Jing Xis matter had nothing to do with him. Although he was curious, it was not enough to make him talk to Jing Xi.
They were just strangers.
Lou Ziling gave herself an injection to reduce the fever. Then, she took some gauze and iodophor and cleaned Jing Xis wound.
Jing Xi cried out in pain, and tears came out of her eyes. She said pitifully,Cant you just give me some anesthetic?
Lou Ziling found it hard to exin. She said coldly,Youre too young, the anesthetic will damage your brain.
It doesnt matter. Im very, very smart anyway. Ill still be very smart even if I be a little stupid!
He still had the energy to praise himself. It seemed like he waspletely fine!
Lou Ziling kept her mouth shut and refused to speak.
However, after she finished bandaging Jing Xis wound, Lou Ziling ran into a problem when she was about to leave.
I have a headache and cant walk. Carry me and walk!
Jing Xi hugged Lou Zilings arm and didnt let go. She looked up at him and acted coquettishly.
Her eyes were still filled with tears from the pain earlier. Under the light, they were glistening.
Her delicate and beautiful facial features and fair skin made her look like the most beautiful doll. A girl like her should not suffer so much. She should be pampered and protected by her parents.
Lou Ziling had never been so intimate with his own sister. He was not used to Jing Xi holding his arm, but he did not push her away.
He had never met anyone who dared to act coquettishly with him in his entire life!
If it was someone else, he would have pped them to the side!
Whether he left or not, it had nothing to do with him!
But Jing Xis coquettishness and tears had broken his hard and cold heart.
He stood there hesitating for a while, then bent down to pick up Jing Xi and strode out of the clinic.
Before Jing Xi could even dry her tears, she burst intoughter.
She hugged Lou Zilings neck and kissed him on the cheek. She said in a tender and clear voice,Youre the best, I like you!
Chapter 1254
Chapter 1254: Hes a good person
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Zilings body stiffened. He resisted the urge to throw Jing Xi away. He wiped his face ufortably, quickly put Jing Xi in the passenger seat, and continued to drive back.
When they returned to Dayun temple, the sky was almost bright.
Other than going home with Jing Rui, Jing Zhi had been looking for Jing Xi in the Dayun temple. He had a tiny hope that Jing Xi was so smart that she could get out of trouble and go back to the Dayun temple on her own.
When he saw Lou Ziling carrying Jing Xi back, he was so excited that he almost cried.
Little sister, youre finally back! You scared second brother to death! If you didnte back, second brother would have gone crazy!
Jing Zhi took Jing Xi into his arms. Seeing her bandaged head, he said angrily,Youre injured?
Second brother, Im fine. This handsome guy saved me! Otherwise, I might be thrown into the sea by the bad guys to feed the fish!
Thank you for saving my sister, Jing Zhi thanked Lou Ziling immediately.
Lou Ziling said okay and nced at Jing Zhis bald head. Then he left in big steps.
Jing Zhis head was shaved and he didnt even bother to change his monk robe. Lou Ziling thought that he was a new monk and left without thinking much.
As for whether Jing Xi and Jing Zhi were brother and sister, and how they came to Dayun temple, he was not interested at all. He did not want them to thank him. He was not feeling well. He still had a fever even after taking the fever-reducing injection. He needed to go to the hospital immediately.
Jing Zhi couldnt care less about Lou Zilings cold face. He was relieved that Jing Xi had been found. He had to tell Jing Rui about it as soon as possible, or he would be looking for her outside.
Jing Yichen and Jing Rui came to the Dayun temple to pick Jing Xi up. Jing Xi was surprised.Dad, when did youe back?
Jing Yichen carried his daughter into the car and said as he checked the wound on her head,Last night.
Is it because of me?
Yes.
Jing Yichen replied with a cold look on his handsome face.Who injured you like this?
Although Jing Xi had been injured since she was a child, they were mostly small injuries, and she had hurt herself. This was the first time she had suffered such a deep wound.
Jing Yichens heart ached for his daughter, but she didnt say a word. She was still very happy, holding his arm and smiling.
Jing Xi told Lou Ziling everything she knew andplimented her.
Jing Yichen didnt know whether tough or cry. Other peoples children would be scared when they were kidnapped by bad people, and it would cause serious psychological trauma. But Jing Xi was not affected at all. It had almost be a good memory!
Did he teach his daughter to be too bold? Its not good to be afraid of not knowing anything!
Dad, quickly help me find out more about my Savior. He didnt ask for anything in return and just left after sending me back. We have to thank him properly!
Alright, he said.
Even if Jing Xi didnt say anything, Jing Yichen would have investigated it.
He had thought more than Jing Xi.
Sometimes, saving a life might not be the real thing. It could also be an act.
Lou Ziling had been living in the Dayun temple for quite a while, so it was easy for Jing Yichen to find him.
Jing Yichen frowned when he found out that he was a member of the Lou family.
When he found out that the people who kidnapped Jing Xi were also involved with the Lou family, his face was as cold as ice.
The Lou familys acting is not bad!
Jing Xis eyes widened as she retorted,Dad, I dont think Lou Ziling is on the same side as the Lou family!
We still need to verify if theyre working together. Its best if theyre not. If they are
Jing Yichen didnt continue. He didnt have the heart to say that he wanted Lou Zilings life in front of his daughter, because she liked Lou Ziling very much.
His daughter had just been saved by Lou Ziling, so it was normal for her to be biased towards him.
Dad, you have to promise me not toy a hand on Lou Ziling!
Jing Xi wasnt stupid. She knew what Jing Yichen meant. But Jing Yichen had never been in contact with Lou Ziling and didnt know Lou Zilings character. Jing Xi felt that he didnt look like the kind of actor at all, otherwise he would have acted more kindly instead of ignoring her.
Jing Yichen had never treated his daughter as an insensible child. He respected her opinions and suggestions, so he promised her seriously,Xixi, I wont touch him before I find out the truth. Even if we find out the truth, no matter what the result is, its up to you to decide whether to punish Lou Ziling or not.
Jing Xi heaved a sigh of relief. Her father had always kept his word. If he said that he would not punish Lou Ziling in private, he would definitely not.
She said in a low voice in Jing Yichens arms,Dad, hes a good man.
Jing Yichen smiled. He didnt tell her about Lou Zilings past, but just nodded.
Although he doubted Lou Zilings intention, what if Lou Ziling really saved Jing Xi?
If there was someone in the world who could sincerely save Jing Xi, it would be Jing Xis good fortune. As her father, he had to thank her solemnly.
When Jing Xi got home, Shangguan ning saw the wound on her daughters head and burst into tears.
Mom, dont cry. Im not even crying. It doesnt hurt at all. I just fell and hit a stone in the temple! Jing Xiforted her with a smile.
Shangguan ning could never have imagined that her daughter had been kidnapped. She had thought that Jing Xi had been too naughty.
Such a deep wound, what if it leaves a scar in the future?
Its fine. Xixi is still young. When she grows up, the scar will be very faint. Shes bald now, so when her hair grows back, the scar will be covered and cant be seen.
Jing Yichen consoled his wife with a smile. He didnt want to bring Jing Xi home so soon, but the first thing Shangguan ning wanted to do after returning to the country was to see her daughter. She had dyed it for an entire night and that was the limit.
Shangguan nings heart still ached for him. At night, she slept in the master bedroom with her daughter in her arms and sent Jing Yichen to another room.
Jing Yichen felt very helpless. He knew that this would happen when he returned to China.
If he had a few more children, his status in the family would be ranked beyond the eighteenth-tier!
Fortunately, there were only two children. Jing Rui had never bothered Shangguan ning when they were young. As for Jing Xi, he must have owed his daughter in his previous life. That was why he had to give her the woman he loved in this life.
Jing Yichen poured himself a cup of tea and went to the study to deal with the affairs of the family and the enterprise as he saw his wife and daughter talking away.
Of course, the most important thing was to order his subordinates to investigate the Lou family thoroughly.
If Lou Ziling really wanted to save Jing Xi, Jing Yichen would never allow him to get in touch with Jing Xi again.
Chapter 1255
Chapter 1255: Rubus coronarius
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Zilings fever had gone down, and his cough was much better. He took a taxi back to the Lou family to get a change of clothes. He was ready to live in Dayun temple in the future.
As soon as she got home, she saw her sister Lou ruofei anxiously asking,Ziling, where have you been these past few days? Eldest uncle and big brother have been looking for you, saying that they have something important to ask you. You should hurry to eldest uncles house to take a look.
Lou ruofei had received a strict education. She had always spoken and done things calmly. It was rare for her to be so anxious.
It could be seen that Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirong had given her a lot of pressure, making her lose her self-control.
Lou Ziling replied with a soft hmm and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After taking a shower, he changed his clothes and was about to leave with a small suitcase in his hand. Lou ruofei immediately stopped him.Where are you going?
Didnt you ask me to go to eldest uncles house?
Lou ruofei heaved a sigh of relief.I saw you carrying your luggage. I thought you were going on a long trip. It hasnt been peaceful at home these few days, so dont run around and dont cause any trouble. Our family Might have to move out of A city.
As she spoke, her tone gradually fell.
She had changed from a prominent family to a family in debt that was isted by all the other families. Some of her friends had avoided her as soon as they heard that Lou family had offended family Jing.
Even mu Sen, who had always liked her, did not call and chat with her much due to the pressure from his family.
Everyone in the family was in a state of panic. Perhaps only her younger brothers mentality had not changed. He was still living in a cold and arrogant manner.
In the past, Lou ruofei had thought that her brother was too unsociable and had an unlikable personality. But now, it seemed that perhaps only his attitude of not putting anyone in his eyes could adapt to the environment.
He didnt seem to be upset or depressed even when his family was on the decline. It was as if everything was the same as before.
Lou Ziling didnt care where the Lou family moved to. It didnt matter where they moved anyway.
He took his suitcase and went out. He didnt go to Lou mingzhens ce as he had said. Instead, he went straight to Dayun temple.
When Lou ruofei found out that her brother had lied to her and didnt go to see her uncle, she was so angry that her headache came back.
However, he was still her brother. She didnt want her uncle to talk about Lou Ziling, so she refused to admit that Lou Ziling hade back.
However, Lou Ziling didnt show up, but the two brothers, Lou mingzhen and Lou Mingyang, started quarreling.
The two brothers parted on bad terms. When Lou Mingyang returned home, there was no sign of anger on his face. He smiled gently and talked to his daughter and wife. As usual, he took care of the flowers and fed his parrot. He did not mention Lou Ziling at all.
In fact, the conflict between him and Lou mingzhen had been going on for a long time. The Lou family had always been controlled by Lou mingzhen. Lou Mingyang didnt agree with many of his views and business ideas, but the power was in Lou mingzhens hands. Lou Mingyang could only hide all his edge and be an idle person.
However, he might not be able to tolerate Lou mingzhen scolding his son.
If Lou Ziling did something wrong, he, as her father, could scold her. There was no reason for Lou Mingyang, her uncle, to scold her.
As an uncle, he had never reprimanded Lou Zirong, Lou ruofu, or Lou Ziyi. Even if Lou ruofu wanted to marry Jing Rui and drag the Lou family down, he had never said a single harsh word.
Why should Lou Ziling be reprimanded by Lou mingzhen?
He didnt believe that Lou Zilings actions were worse than Lou ruofu s.
It was all thanks to Lou mingzhen that Lou Ziling had be such a loner.
Lou ruofei wouldnt tell her uncle the truth, but she would definitely tell her biological father the truth. They were all a family, and she had always been impressed by her fathers wisdom. She also knew that her father loved his only son very much.
Father, Ziling actually came back. He promised to go to uncles ce, but
Feifei, its fine. Ill take care of your uncle. Your brother doesnt need to go.
Lou Mingyang interrupted his daughters words. He smiled affectionately and said,He must have done something to annoy your uncle, but he didnt tell me anything, so we dont need to worry about him. Dont you know your brothers character? Hes the most impatient with dealing with people. If he were to go to your uncles house, your uncle and aunt would probably faint from anger.
Lou ruofei alsoughed and said,I thought that uncle had some misunderstanding about my brother and wanted Ziling to exin it to him. It seems that there is no need for an exnation.
She saw that Lou Mingyang seemed to be in a good mood and couldnt help but ask him,Dad, arent we moving out of A city? Howe you dont look worried at all?
Feifei, do you want to move out of A city?
I dont want to.
Lou ruofei shook her head. She liked city A. She was born and raised here. If it was another ce, she would definitely not be used to it.
I think City A is a good ce. Can we not leave? Could eldest uncle and his family Go to family Jing and apologize? Its our big brother and sister who have gone too far in this matter. Jing Rui and Shuyin are already engaged. How can sister be so confident that Jing Rui will marry her?
Lou Mingyang had always been suspicious about this. The Lou family had always been a subsidiary family of the Jing family. Although Lou mingzhen was ambitious, he was not so arrogant as to want to swallow up the Jing family.
Who gave him such courage?
In a luxurious and spacious bedroom, the colorful sunset shone in through the clean floor-to-ceiling windows, adding a touch of rustle to the entire bedroom.
Lou ruofus naked body was exposed to the air. Her skin was as white as Jade, and her waist was slender. The pair of Jade rabbits in front of her chest were round and full. They trembled with her movements, making peoples blood boil.
She sat on the mans body and was shaking him unscrupulously.
After an unknown amount of time, the two of them finally stopped.
Lou ruofu wrapped her arms around the mans neck and gave him a fiery kiss. She said in a seductive voice,Hubby, when did you dump that woman, Shuyin? Im already yours, so I wont agree if you dont marry me!
The mans face was very simr to Jing Rui s, but his eyes were filled with malice, which ruined his handsome face.
Liao Wei held the beauty in his arms, and his desire to rece Jing Rui grew stronger.
If he didnt have this face, he wouldnt be able to press himself on a woman like Lou ruofu and y with her as he pleased in his next life!
No matter how hard he tried, he couldnt afford such a luxurious and expensive vi!
Even the head of the Lou family, Lou mingzhen, would not bow to him!
Kill Jing Rui! Kill Jing Rui!
By recing him, all the money, women, power, and status would belong to him, Liao Wei!
Hahaha, Zishans scheme was really unbeatable. Lou ruofu actually believed that he was Jing Rui!
He would let the Lou Family test the waters first, and then he would take down the other families one by one. When no one recognized the real Jing Rui, it would be the best time for him to show up.
The only one who was difficult to deal with was Jing Yichen. Liao Wei had been traumatized by Jing Yichen and his heart would tremble whenever he heard his name.

Chapter 1256: Memory disorder

It was not that Lou ruofu had never suspected Liao Weis identity, but she had known him for a long time and had been in contact with him for a few years. Moreover, Liao Weis identity had been recognized by the Jing family. No one would have thought that he was Jing Ruis substitute.
Of course, Liao Wei did not say that Jing Rui was a fake. He was the real one, in case the Lou family found out that he was the fake one.
He only said that he was just putting on a show with Shuyin and told Lou ruofu about Shuyins identity. He made it clear that he was afraid of Shuyins strength and the Virus Research Institutes strength.
Liao Wei had been doing very well recently. He slept in the day and yed with women at night. He used Jing Ruis face to get in touch with several youngdies from small families, and made them cry and beg to marry him.
Jing Rui usually worked during the day and spent most of his time with Shuyin at night. Liao Wei was not afraid of being exposed when he was out using Jing Ruis face.
No one had found out that there were two Jing ruis in A city.
Everyone thought that although Jing Rui looked arrogant and cold, he was actually fond of women and had a messy private life.
If Liao Wei had only toyed with Lou ruofu, Jing Rui would not have noticed his existence immediately. However, Liao Wei was a lecherous man. After he realized that nothing had happened, he started to act presumptuously.
Jing Rui looked at the picture of Liao Wei hugging those women on the table and thought that they must be blind.
Only half of Liao Weis face was fine. The other half was a little distorted due to the injury. His face was still a little swollen. It was obvious that he had injected too much hyaluronic acid to make himself look like him.
However, there were very few women who had seen him before, so it was no wonder that the girls would get the wrong person.
Jing Rui sneered. Liao Wei hade to A city, so did Zishan?
He had hidden it well. There was no news of her after such a long time!
She wanted to use Liao Wei to lure him out, but she did not know that Jing Rui was also using Liao Wei to lure her out.
They were both from an assassin organization, and many of their techniques were surprisingly simr.
When Shuyin walked into the study, she saw the explicit photos on the table. But she was very familiar with Jing Rui and could tell that the person in the photos was not Jing Rui after looking at two of them.
It seemed that she was Jing Ruis substitute.
She handed a cup of hot tea to Jing Rui and said with a frown,Its not good to just let him do as he pleases, right?
Lou ruofus appearance was already annoying enough. If a few more women came and said that Jing Rui wanted to marry them, Shuyin felt that even if she knew it was fake, she couldnt be magnanimous anymore.
And now that family Lou was bankrupt, family Jing had lost a powerful arm. They couldnt break all the arms and legs, could they?
By then, no family would dare to follow family Jing.
Jing Rui took a sip of the tea and said with a smile,Dont worry. Hes gone too far. Someone will take care of him. I dont need to do anything.
Zishan was cautious and headstrong by nature, so Liao Wei was definitely going to suffer for being so reckless.
He was not worried about Liao Weis problem. He was more concerned about Shuyins problem.
Yinyin, dont go to your mothers ce anymore. Dont investigate the past anymore.
Shuyin had obviously lost weight in the past few days and looked tired every day. It was rare for her to be in such a state today.
She usually didnt talk much.
Shuyin lowered her head.Although the DNA results show that Jiang Manshu is my mother, she said softly,Ive never treated her as a mother.
Jing Rui had a point. After she had confirmed that Jiang Manshu was her mother and Li Jing was her sister, there was no need to investigate further.
But what Jing Rui didnt know was that the reason why Shuyin refused to give up on Jiang Manshu was that Jiang Manshu had been asking her to take revenge for Shucheng mountain.
She was afraid that if she rejected Jiang Manshu, she would find someone else to deal with Jing Rui, which would make it even harder to guard against.
This was her biological mother. Even though Shuyin hated her and hated her, this was really her mother. She was the woman who had used all her means to survive ten years ago!
Was she really going to kill her own mother?
Shuyin was in pain. She would rather Jiang Manshu had died ten years ago!
In the past, she hated Lucas for killing her parents. Now, she hated Lucas for not killing her parents!
Jiang Manshu could die in anyones hands, even if it was Shuyin herself. But she didnt want Jiang Manshu to die in Jing Ruis hands.
Even though Jing Rui did not care if his hands were stained with blood, Shuyin was not willing to let Jing Rui bear the burden.
He had already made Jing Rui feel guilty for killing Shu Chengshan. What would happen if Jiang Manshu was added to the mix?
Therefore, Jiang Manshu could not die in Jing Ruis hands, and Jing Rui could not die in Jiang Manshus hands.
Shuyin was stuck in this kind of crevice, bitterly looking for an opportunity.
Seeing Shuyins mood drop, Jing Rui quickly got up and hugged her.Yinyin, Ill support you in whatever you do. I wont interfere with your freedom of action.
He had thought that Shuyin had feelings for her mother and sister, and that she only hated Jiang Manshu for hiding for ten years and not acknowledging her.
So, he immediately changed his words.
Up until now, Jiang Manshu had not done anything to let Shuyin down. She was not a good mother and did not give Shuyin enough motherly love, but she did not hurt Shuyin much either.
Even the person who sent Shuyin to the Research Institute wasnt her, but Shu Chengshan.
Shu Yin leaned against Jing Rui, holding his waist and closing her eyes.
She felt very tired and insecure. She only felt at ease when Jing Rui held her in his arms.
She had been in a very tense state in the Research Institute, which had caused her to not sleep well. She had been very alert, especially recently. It was so serious that she could not fall asleep without Jing Ruis arms.
Even so, Shuyin always had nightmares.
Some of her childhood memories slowly blurred, and some images that she could not remember at all appeared.
Shuyin could now confirm that the memories she had always been proud of were fake. They had been tampered with!
It was very easy for a hypnotist to make a child forget some things and guide her to remember other things. Shuyin could do it herself.
Without a doubt, the person who modified her memory was Shucheng mountain.
If it wasnt for Shuyins strong mental fortitude, this feeling of memory disorder would definitely make her copse.
While the Research Institute had given her pain and torture, it had also given her perseverance that ordinary people could not hope to achieve.
Shey in Jing Ruis arms and mumbled,Rui, Im not dreaming, am I? Will I one day find out that our lives are fake?
Jing Rui didnt know that Shuyins childhood memories were messed up, but he loved Shuyin deeply and could feel her confusion and pain.
He hugged Shuyin tightly and said gently,no, its not a dream. I cant fake my love for you.

What did you just say? I didnt hear you clearly.
It was easy for people to act coquettishly when they were weak, and Shuyin had started to act coquettishly with Jing Rui without her knowing.
Jing Rui kissed her forehead gently to satisfy her girlish desire. He repeated,I love you.
When she heard him say those three words, Shuyin felt that if she was dreaming right now, she would rather not wake up.
After a warm night, she woke up the next day to find Jing Rui still by her side. He had his arms around her waist and his chin was on her forehead. She was satisfied to see his fresh scent.
She did not care about losing her mother or sister, she only cared about Jing Rui.
Whether it was Jiang Manshu or Li Jing, she would always be able to find a way to deal with them. If it really didnt work, she would just use the virus first.
Jing Rui noticed that Shuyin was in better spirits when he got up in the morning. He suddenly felt that even though Shuyin was strong-willed, girls still needed to be coaxed.
He had only said I love you, and Shuyin was already so satisfied. It was just that he didnt get up to work in the morning, but waited for her to wake up before leaving. This made her feel much more at ease.
He held Shuyins hand and went downstairs to eat breakfast. Then he saw Jing Xi running in like a gust of wind and shouting,Brother, dad said that Lou Ziling really wanted to save me! He didnt know that the Lou family had arranged for someone to kidnap me! Hes a good person!
Jing Rui did not show any emotion, but Shuyin smiled. She quickly walked down the stairs and picked Jing Xi up in her arms. Thats right. Xixi is loved by everyone. Lou Ziling has no reason not to save her.
Jing Xi had finally found a soulmate. She hugged Shuyin and giggled.Yes, yes, Im so likable! Even if you shave your head, people will still like it!
Shuyin touched Jing Xis smooth little head and smiled.Has the wound on your head healed? Look at you, howe you dont feel any pain at all!
Its fine, it doesnt hurt anymore!
Jing Xi couldnt care less about her injury. She wanted to tell the world that Lou Ziling had saved her for no other reason.
Sister-inw, do you think I should marry Lou Ziling? You havent seen him before, but hes so handsome, even more handsome than my brother! He likes me very much and is very good to me!
Lou Ziling barely spoke to her and ignored her. She didnt know how Lou Ziling could tell that he liked her.
Moreover, before Jing Xi was saved, Lou Zilings looks were not even better than Jing Rui s. After saving her, her looks soared in Jing Xis heart and directly surpassed Jing Rui s.
Jing Rui shook his head helplessly. When would his sister change her habit of marrying every handsome man she saw?
Shuyin didnt take it seriously. She liked to hear Jing Xis chatter. This girl was a natural happy person, and people couldnt help but like her.
If you want to marry Lou Ziling, you have to wait until youre 18. Now, lets have some breakfast and try to grow taller!
This hit Jing Xis soft spot. She nodded.Yes, yes, yes, sister-inw, youre right. I have to grow taller! Is there any virus that can make me grow up faster?
When Shuyin heard the first half of her sentence, she thought that she would have to eat more in the future. She didnt expect her to mention the virus at the end.
There were a lot of viruses and hormones that could help things grow, but they obviously couldnt be given to Jing Xi.
Shuyin ced Jing Xi on the dining chair and handed her a ss of milk. She smiled and said,Drink more milk. Its more effective than any virus.
Jing Xi was not a picky eater. She could eat anything, except for milk and goats milk. She didnt even like yogurt. Most of the time, she only drank fruit juice.
She stared at the ss of milk and said with a frown,Sister-inw, I didnt study much. Dont lie to me!
Shuyin was amused by her words. Seeing her frowning pink face, she couldnt bear to see her like this. She reached out and took the milk back.Forget it. If you dont like it, then we wont drink it. Its the same if we eat something else to supplement calcium. How about we have pork rib soup for lunch?
In fact, Jing Xi had developed very well and was already considered very tall among her peers. Shangguan ning had also paid attention to giving her daughter calcium and had a reasonable diet. It was fine for her to not drink milk.
But Jing Xi seemed to have made up her mind. She bit her lip, grabbed the ss from Shuyin, and finished the milk in one go.
After she finished drinking, she stuffed her mouth with the crisp and delicious cucumber sd and finally suppressed the taste of the milk.
AI, its really bad! Cant the mother cows milk be left for the calves? Who started this?
Even Jing Rui couldnt stand it anymore. He was angry and amused at the same time. Dont drink it if you dont like it. I feel like its torture just to see you drink.
He had heard from Jing Yichen that his family had tried many ways to make Jing Xi drink fresh milk, but she refused to drink it. Now she was drinking it for Lou Ziling. How could his parents ept this?
That wont do. I have to take in calcium and grow up! Milk is nutritious, and youll grow quickly after drinking it!
Jing Xi ate another piece of cucumber, still not forgetting that she was going to marry Lou Ziling.Brother, havent you been cleaning up the Lou family recently? Can you give the Lou family a way out? otherwise, Ill marry into the Lou family and be a beggar with Lou Ziling.
Jing Rui almost spat out the water he had just drunk.
She hadnt even had a chance to do anything, and she was already thinking about gaining benefits for the Lou family?
Did Lou Ziling know how charming he was?
The Lou family wont fall. Its just that someone else will be the familys sessor.
Jing Rui looked at his sisters hopeful eyes andughed.Lou Ziling was my chosen sessor. His father has good vision and strategy, but he has been keeping a low profile. Even if he doesnt work with our family, he can still live a good life in A city. No matter how poor he is, he wont have to beg for food.
Lou mingzhens family was eager to make a move, but Lou Mingyangs family did not.
Although they were both surnamed Lou, there was a difference. Jing Rui would not me Lou Mingyang for Lou mingzhens ambition and mistake.
In Jing Ruis opinion, it was unlikely that Jing Xi would marry Lou Ziling, but he should still express his gratitude to Lou Ziling for saving Jing Xi.
Now that his father had returned to the country, he should have been in contact with Lou Mingyang. Soon, the power-holder of the Lou family would be changed.
Lou Mingyang was only 42 years old, ten years younger than Lou mingzhen. He could still manage the Lou family for many years until Lou Ziling grew up. Then, he would hand the family over to his son.
In the future, Lou Ziling would definitely take over the Lou family.
Jing Xis eyes curved into crescents as she smiled.Oh my, I have good taste. The point is, Lou Ziling is still young. I can start building up my rtionship with him now!
Jing Rui kept shaking his head. Jing Xi was the youngest when Lou Ziling was mentioned.
She felt that Lou Ziling was a good person. Her passion was exactly the same as when she liked mu Sen. She would probably stop after a while when she liked someone else.
She was only eight years old, still a little girl.
She would only understand what true love was after at least ten years.

Chapter 1258: The Tianyi group

The three of them talked andughed. It was a happy scene, but Jing Zhis arrival quieted them down.
Jing Zhi also felt the change in the atmosphere. Jing Xi and Shuyin were fine, but Jing Ruis face was so cold that it could freeze people.
Ever since Jing Xi had been taken away, Jing Rui had been annoyed every time he saw Jing Zhi. When he found out that Jing Zhi only cared about Zheng yuluo and did not care about Jing Xi, he wanted to throw Jing Zhi back to North America.
Seeing her brothers expression, Jing Xi immediately tried to liven up the atmosphere.Second brother, second brother, are you here for breakfast? Me too! I just had a ss of milk!
Jing Zhi pinched her cheeks and said with a smile,Sister, youre still the best to me. You dont hold a grudge even after I lost you, unlike someone who doesnt even want to talk to me!
Shuyin turned to look at the someone that Jing Zhi was talking about. Seeing that he wasnt even looking at Jing Zhi and had no intention of responding to him, she couldnt help but say,Jing Zhi,e and have breakfast with us!
There was no such thing as overnight enmity between brothers. Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were closer than brothers. Shuyin knew that Jing Rui was just angry for a moment and would be fine after some time.
Jing Zhi was in a terrible mood that night when Jing Xi was kidnapped. As the saying goes, men dont shed tears easily. Jing Zhis eyes were red the whole time when there was no news from Jing Xi.
He didnt say anything, but Shuyin knew that Jing Zhi was ming himself. He always felt that he had let Jing Xi down. When he saw that Jing Xi was injured, he hugged her and kept asking, his heart aching.
Unfortunately, even with Shuyin and Jing Xis help, Jing Rui was still cold to Jing Zhi and ignored him from beginning to end. After breakfast, he asked Gao ya to send Jing Xi back to Shangguan ning and refused to let Jing Zhi take Jing Xi out again.
Brother, I was wrong, alright? Say something to me, or you can scold me!
I promise I wont make the same mistake again!
Brother, this has nothing to do with Zheng yuluo. Can you not take your anger out on her?
Jing Zhi said a lot of things pitifully, but Jing Rui still ignored him. He went to the cloakroom to change his suit and went to work at Jingsheng enterprise.
The business of Jingsheng enterprise had been expanding steadily. In fact, the loss of the arm of the Lou family had caused a great loss to the enterprise, and Jing Rui had been making up for it recently.
Today, they were going to cooperate with a small group that had just grown up. If the negotiation was sessful, the losses caused by the Lou family would be quicklypensated, and the broken business chain could be reconnected.
The partner was a sporting goods manufacturer named Tianyi group. It had been established for a long time, but it only emerged in thest two years.
There must be one or more business-sensitive leaders behind the rapid development. Jing Rui wanted to get in touch with them and see if they could have a long-term cooperation.
Jingsheng enterprise was a raw material supplier. The enterprise used to provide raw materials to the Lou family. The Lou family was one of the best in the sporting goods industry and had many branchpanies. They mainly specialized in ball games. Now, with the support of Jingsheng enterprise, they had entered the high-end market and hired many sports stars as spokespersons. Their reputation had been greatly improved.
After Jingsheng enterprise had cut off the supply of raw materials, Jing Rui had cut off the sales channels of family Lou, which meant that family Lou had no raw materials for production and no way to sell the sports equipment that had already been produced. This led to a serious backlog in the warehouse and the capital chain was broken.
The Lou family had suffered a great loss, and Jingsheng enterprise couldnt sell any raw materials.
Ordinary small enterprises could not take in so many raw materials of Jingsheng enterprise, and Jing Rui did not intend to work with only the Lou family in the future, because it was too risky to work with only onepany.
In the future, the depth of cooperation with the Lou family would depend on Lou Mingyangs sincerity and business mind. If his ability was average, then the cooperation could only be in a small scope.
The meeting between Jingsheng enterprise and Tianyi enterprise was scheduled at nineo clock in the morning. At nineo clock sharp, Jing Rui showed up in the meeting room on the top floor of Jingsheng enterprise with some relevant personnel.
In the spacious and simple meeting room, the leaders of the Tianyi group were already seated neatly on one side of the long table.
Everyone in Tianyi group had been full of admiration for the new president since he was on the verge of death. Now that he could cooperate with Jingsheng enterprise, everyone was excited and looking forward to it.
The new president of Tianyi group was wearing a white suit. Her long ck hair was tied up behind her head, revealing her beautiful face.
Her makeup was exquisite, capable but elegant, noble but gentle. Her overly young appearance stunned the staff of Jingsheng enterprise for a second.
Fortunately, the president of Jingsheng enterprise was also very young. They had gotten used to young geniuses and the handsome President. Otherwise, they would not be so calm when they saw the president of Tianyi enterprise.
The staff of Tianyi group, however, were not so calm. They had only started their business in the past two years and had never been in contact with Jingsheng enterprise. They had no idea that the president of such a bigpany looked even younger than their President!
Some people doubted Jing Ruis ability, but no one dared to show any contempt because of the power of Jingsheng enterprise and the reputation of family Jing.
Jing Rui nced at the people of Tianyi group and finally fixed his eyes on the woman who sat in the middle, representing the highest status.
Li Jing?
When did the Tianyi group be the Li family s?
The people who were responsible for collecting information didnt even collect this information!
It seemed that Li Jing had deliberately concealed it!
No wonder the Tianyi group had risen so quickly in the past two years. With the Li familys support, it was impossible for it to not develop.
Jing Rui did not even raise an eyebrow. He looked calm and indifferent, as if he did not know Li Jing, and went straight to the point.
He was strong and professional, and he quickly put a lot of pressure on the people of Tianyi group. Except for Li Jing, who was still smiling calmly, everyone else was already sweating.
Li Jing felt that it was a great pleasure to be so close to Jing Rui and to hear him speak in such a low and pleasant voice.
She did not try to get close to Jing Rui when she saw that he pretended not to know her.
She was the only heir of the Li family. Even if the Li family was not as powerful as the Jing family, they didnt need to bow to the Jing family. She was qualified to keep her pride.
Li Jing hade with the intention of working with Jing Rui, so even if Jing Ruis conditions were harsh, she agreed to them all.
The meeting onlysted for half an hour, and the initial intention of cooperation had been reached.
Li Jing and her men said goodbye and left politely, but Jing Rui frowned.
Chapter 1259
Chapter 1259: Whose brilliance is it
Trantor: 549690339
Things were going too smoothly!
Under normal circumstances, mostpanies would try their best to meet the requirements of Jingsheng enterprise, but it was not normal for Li Jing to do this.
If Li Jing was so easy to talk to, she wouldnt have been the only heir left in the Li family!
It was said that she was in charge of many of the Li familys businesses. Jing Rui himself had put in so much effort and effort to take over Jingsheng enterprise. Only he knew that Li Jing had put in as much effort as he had.
She must be very good at management and not someone who would be easily taken advantage of. She was different from what Jing Rui had imagined.
She was rational and intelligent, but more than that, she was gentle and beautiful, just like the first time he had met Li Jing at Shuyins house in W-city.
It was normal to be gentle in life, but in the business world, where there was no smoke, gentleness was worthless!
Jing Rui could not figure out Li Jings intentions, but he did not intend to give up on the cooperation with Tianyi.
All business cooperation had risks, such as the Lou family. The Jing family had spent a lot of resources to support the development of the Lou family, but in the end, the Lou family still had disloyalty.
The cooperation with Tianyi waspleted on the first day, and the next day was a weekend. Li Jing invited Jing Rui and the senior management of Jingsheng to a banquet.
Li Jing wasnt holding an ordinary banquet, but a high-end banquet for political and business cooperation. This was the first time she had held such an event on behalf of the Li family, so there were many people who supported her.
She had thought that Jing Rui would be very attracted to such a banquet, but she was wrong. Jing Rui did not show up at all. Instead, all the senior managers of Jingsheng enterprise were there, and a huge order and in-depth cooperation would be made possible in the midst ofughter.
The absence of the new president of Jingsheng enterprise was within everyones expectations except Li Jing.
Family Jing rarely attended such events, including Jing Yichen and Jing zhongxiu.
The youngdy of the Li family, who had beauty, talent, wealth, and wisdom, became the focus of everyone at the banquet.
If he could marry her, the Li familys hundreds of billions of assets would be at his fingertips!
Although Li Jing had always been famous, only a few people had seen her. No one had expected her to be so beautiful that even the popr female celebrities at the banquet were overshadowed by her!
Not to mention the Li familys wealth, Li Jings beautiful appearance and outstanding temperament alone was enough to make all men go after her.
Even the senior management of Jingsheng enterprise was tempted. They were not doing it for themselves, but for their young and handsome President.
Most of the people at the party, including the people of Jingsheng enterprise, thought that only Jing Rui, the heir of family Jing and the current president of Jingsheng enterprise, could be a good match for Li Jing.
However, most people did not want the two families to be connected by marriage.
What a joke! Once the two families were connected by marriage, family Jing would be the absolute king in the business world and no one would dare to challenge him.
What a pity that our President got engaged at such a young age. Otherwise, he could marry the heir of family li and double the assets of family Jing!
Its okay. You can get a divorce after marriage. This is an engagement, and it has no legal effect. You can marry another woman whenever you want. Family Jing and family li are so rich anyway, so its reasonable for the girl to disagree if wepensate her more, right?
I think the possibility is very low. You may not have seen the presidents fiance before. Her appearance and temperament are no less than this one! The president doesntck money, so he doesnt need to marry a woman he doesnt like for the Li familys assets.
You dont like it when its so pretty? Even if Im a woman, I want to marry the Li familys daughter!
The senior managers of Jingsheng enterprise were discussing in low voices. They had never seen Shuyin before and could not imagine how someone could bepared to Li Jing. They also could not imagine that the president could remain unmoved after the business discussion with Li Jing.
They also didnt know that Li Jing, who was the center of everyones attention, was the presidents unknown fiances half-sister.
The ce was brightly lit, and Li Jing, who was wearing a custom-made CHANEL jeweled dress, stood in the center with a smile, epting thepliments and praises of the crowd.
On the quiet road at night, Shuyin was dressed in the casual clothes that Jing Rui had bought for her. Her long hair fell over her shoulders, and she was holding Jing Ruis arm, touching the fireflies flying around her from time to time.
So beautiful! Ive only seen Firefly specimens in the Research Institute before. I didnt know they were so beautiful and brilliant!
Jing Rui smiled when he saw that she liked it. He could not help but hold her slender waist and said,If you like, we can stay here for two more days.
It was the weekend, and Shuyin had been frustrated by Jiang Manshus matter for many days, so Jing Rui took her to a vi in the countryside.
He had lived here with his parents when he was young. For a genius like him, fireflies were just glowing insects. He had never understood why Shangguan ning liked fireflies so much, nor why Jing Yichen had asked people to catch arge number of fireflies and set them free here in order to please his wife.
It was only today that he finally understood.
Women were emotional creatures. They liked beautiful things. Unlike men who liked to fight and kill, or like cold guns, a small Firefly could make a girl show her beauty.
As long as it could make Shuyin happy, what was the big deal with catching some fireflies? he was even willing to pick stars!
As for Li Jing, Jing Rui had already forgotten about her.
He didnt need to learn how to make the woman he loved happy. As long as he loved her enough, he would naturally do it.
It wasnt that men didnt know how to be romantic, it just depended on whether he was willing to give it up for the woman.
Shuyins joy was beyond words. She had never been so close to nature before. It was her first time seeing fireflies all over the mountains and fields, and it was her first time seeing the stars shining above her head.
The sound of insects was melodious and clear, and the fragrance of grass mixed with wildflowers permeated the surroundings. A thinyer of mist rose not far away, like a dream, so beautiful that it seemed unreal.
Shuyin caught a Firefly and saw it flying in her palm. She was afraid of hurting it, so she let it go reluctantly.
She wrapped her arms around Jing Ruis neck and said,This ce is just like in the movies. Lets stay for two more days!
Jing Rui hugged her and said in a loving tone,Alright, Ill listen to you!
The weather is getting colder, could they have disappeared?
No, theyll always be there, as long as you want to see them.
Shuyins eyes widened, and she asked in confusion,Oh, really? Were the fireflies here different from those in North America? I remember the Research Institute exined that fireflies would disappear in autumn and winter!
The fireflies in Asia are more resistant to the cold than the fireflies in North America, Jing Rui said seriously.

Thend in the countryside was very vast. The fields stretched as far as the eye could see, and there were all kinds of flowers, birds, insects, and fish. It was the first time in her life that Shu Yin came into contact with these things, and she was lost in it.
Besides, it was quiet and peaceful here, without the hustle and bustle of a big city. Shuyin didnt want to leave after staying here for a few days.
Jing Rui had no choice but to go back to the city alone. He had to deal with many things in thepany and the family, and it was not good to live in the countryside.
Shuyin wanted to stay here for a few more days, and Jing Rui felt that it was a good thing. The environment could change a persons mood. Shuyin was obviously more cheerful and active than ever in the past few days, and she even nned her future with him. This had never happened before.
However, Jing Rui did not know that Shuyin regretted it as soon as he left.
In the empty vi, other than the servants, Shuyin was the only one left. She ate, took a walk, and slept. There was no one by her side, and Shuyin was very ufortable.
When one was looking at the scenery alone, even the scenery would be lonely.
When Jing Rui was by Shuyins side, she didnt feel anything. But when he wasnt by her side, she realized how important he was in her life.
They had only been apart for a day, but Shuyin felt empty inside. The fun of living in the countryside had suddenly disappeared, and even the beautiful fireflies at night had be ordinary.
Jiang Manshu had even wanted to win over Shuyin so that she could hate Jing Rui together with her and then kill him.
Shuyin stood alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the vi, looking at the stars outside. She felt that if Jing Rui was gone, she would lose all her life.
If you had never met that person, then everything would be boring. But if you met him and then lost him, everything would be boring.
Shuyin used to be afraid that she would be dependent on Jing Rui, but now, she was so dependent on him that it was impossible to quit.
She stood in front of the window until the sun rose. When the sun had just risen, she packed her things and asked the chauffeur Jing Rui had left behind to send her back.
Shuyin wasnt having a good time, and Jing Rui wasnt any better. Not only did he miss Shuyin, but he was also worried about her safety. Even though he had left people to protect Shuyin, he still couldnt stop worrying.
However, he was very busy, and work had diluted his thoughts. When he was serious about his work, he didnt have time to think about anything.
Jing Rui dared not let his guard down, especially when Li Jing kept looking for him to discuss the details of their next cooperation.
Shuyin was not at home, and Jing Rui was working all night. Without her at home, he did not even like to go home. So he kept giving orders in thepany, and many people in thepany worked overnight.
Li Jing was sitting opposite Jing Rui, holding a thick stack of documents. She was telling Jing Rui clearly what kind of raw materials Tianyi group needed and what improvements Jingsheng needed to make. There was a lot of confidential information about the production and management of Tianyi group, and she asked Jingsheng to keep it strictly confidential.
It was the first time for Jingsheng enterprise to make fine adjustments to the raw materials. When Jingsheng provided the raw materials to other enterprises in the past, they used the same process and method to produce the raw materials and the partners were very satisfied.
If he made any adjustments, it would mean that he would need to upgrade the equipment and reforge the molds, which would greatly increase the cost and reduce the profit.
When the two sides had signed the preliminary cooperation agreement, Li Jing had not mentioned any of these details.
Jing Ruis patience and time were limited. Although Li Jings request was reasonable, he still asked her to leave without hesitation.
President Li, youd better go back and take a look at the contract we signed. If you have any problems, you can submit it to ourpany. If youre not satisfied with our raw materials, the cooperation will be terminated immediately. Please leave!
Li Jing didnt get angry. She smiled calmly and said,I know that Jingsheng enterprise had been cooperating with Lou family in this aspect. It is normal that the standard of raw materials is not high, because Lou familys sports equipment is not high-end. There will be no problem using those materials.
However, Tianyi groups focus is on the high-end market, and theyre targeting high-consumption groups. Theyll provide product support for various internationalpetitions. Tianyi will have a bright future. As a partner, Jingsheng enterprise will have a breakthrough in raw material supply. Are you giving up this fat piece of meat by driving me away?
Li Jings words were pleasant to hear. The Li family indeed had the ability to develop a small, unknownpany into a multinational corporation, allowing their sports equipment to enter majorpetitions around the world.
But Jing Rui was not moved at all. Jing Yichen had taught him to take risks, but to refuse benefits.
Money could never be earned, and it was unrealistic to want to take a bite of the cake when you saw it.
Could it be that Jingsheng didnt have the ability to improve the quality of raw materials?
Of course not!
The reason why they didnt increase the price was that if they did, the cost would double, and the sales pressure would also increase sharply.
If the Li family went bankrupt one day, or stopped working with Jingsheng enterprise, the raw materials would be overstocked and all the investment in the early stage would be for nothing.
Jing Rui looked at Li Jings wless face and suddenly smiled.
Why did he treat Li Jing as his opponent before?
The two of them were not on the same level at all!
Li Jing looked experienced and calm, but in fact, her technique was very young. She was calm because she was too confident in herself.
Did Li Jing really manage everything in the Li family?
Jing Rui had a deep doubt in his heart. If Li Jing took over the Li family in the future, the assets of the Li family would shrink greatly in a few years.
It was Li Jings first time seeing Jing Rui smile. Although his smile was light, he was indeed smiling.
The morning sun was fresh and beautiful, shining on the meeting room on the 77th floor of Jingsheng enterprise.
Jing Rui was sitting in the sunlight. His short hair was neat and his facial features were well-defined. He was handsome and perfect.
His white shirt was dyed with the glow of the sunset, turning into a gorgeous color, making him even more eye-catching and charming.
Li Jing had just met many famous people at the banquet the night before, including many young and handsome men from prominent families. But all of them had lost their luster whenpared to Jing Rui.
Li Jings eyes lit up. She looked into Jing Ruis deep eyes and asked in a gentle voice,What are youughing at? Do you think Im too ambitious and too naive?
Li Jing was very confident in her voice and appearance. Every time she spoke with a gentle smile, she was sessful.
She was more than happy to show off her charm when she met a young and handsome opponent like Jing Rui.

Unfortunately, Jing Rui did not notice the change in Li Jings voice and tone, nor was he attracted by her appearance.
Shuyins appearance was already one of the best, but her voice was more in line with Jing Ruis taste than Li Jing s.
Shuyins voice had never been so gentle. Her voice was as clear as spring water and could touch ones heart. No matter how much she talked, one would not get tired of it.
It was a pity that Shuyin didnt sing. If she did, she would be very good.
Jing Rui sighed in his heart. He was starting to miss Shuyin again.
He wondered if she had forgotten about him because she was so happy in the countryside that she did not even give him a call.
Li Zhi was a little embarrassed when she saw Jing Rui getting distracted after just one sentence, but her voice became gentler.Jing Rui, do you really think of me as a child?
Jing Rui frowned slightly when Li Jing called him by his full name.
There were only a handful of people who could call him by his name, and Li Jing was definitely not one of them.
His expression had only turned a little cold, but Li Jing had noticed it immediately. She smiled like sand and said,You dont like it when I call you by your name? What should I do then? you are my brother-inw. I cant always call you President Jing when we meet in the future. If youre too distant, my sister will be unhappy!
Anyone else would have felt that Li Jing and Shuyins rtionship was very close and close.
Unfortunately, Jing Rui was too hard to fool and did not believe Li Jings sisterly love at all.
Moreover, Li Jings words hinted that Shuyin had a personality problem, and Jing Rui did not like it.
From the day he found out that Li Jing and Shuyin were sisters, he did not believe that Li Jing would be kind to Shuyin. Even though she had shown the greatest kindness and the deepest concern for her sister, Jing Rui still did not believe that Li Jing, who had killed all her brothers and sisters, would allow Shuyin to continue existing.
Jing Rui suddenly said coldly,Stay away from Shuyin in the future.
Li Jing was so smart that she immediately guessed Jing Ruis concern. She opened her big, watery eyes and said in surprise,Dont tell me you also believe those rumors?
Jing Rui did not say anything, but Li Jingughed in anger. She knocked on the table with her fair and slender fingers and said,Hey, do I look like the kind of person who kills people like flies? Please dont think of me that way, okay?
Kill all your brothers and sisters? This matter was not reliable at all. So many people actually believed it! If I dared to do that, my father would definitely break my legs! Although hes a little biased towards me, hes not that biased!
Let me make this clear to you first. Ive never touched a single one of my siblings. Shuyin is my only sister now. If I touch her in the future, you can do whatever you want to her!
The woman in front of him was beautiful like a rose that had just bloomed, beautiful beyondparison.
No one would think that such a delicate and beautiful girls hands were really stained with blood.
But Jing Rui had seen too many beautiful female killers, some of whom looked delicate and weak, but were more ruthless and brave than men when they killed.
The more beautiful and gentle her appearance was, the more deceptive and protective she would be!
Jing Rui subconsciously looked at Li Jings hands on the table. Her fingers were like scallions, tender and white, perfect and without the calluses that female killers usually had.
There were no traces of an assassin holding a gun for a long time on the web between her thumb and index finger. Instead, it was in line with her appearance as a rich youngdy with a light pink color. It was very beautiful.
Jing Ruis wariness was finally lifted a little. He had always felt a strange sense of familiarity towards Li Jing. He suspected that he had seen her before, but they were not familiar with each other, so he could not recognize her.
The only ones he could remember but not recognize were the female killers in the killer organization who wore masks all year round.
However, Li Jings figure was different from all the other female assassins he had seen. She was taller, slimmer, and had a gentler temperament.
Li Jing did not mind being sized up by Jing Rui. Seeing him staring at her hand, she even showed a trace of pride and smugness.My hands look nice, dont they? My mom always said that if I squander all the Li familys money in the future, I can support myself by using my hands as a hand model instead of my face!
Speaking of which, Yinyins hands are very beautiful too. Not only do we look like mom, but we also have hands like hers.
Hearing Li Jing mention Shu Yin again, Jing Ruis eyes finally shifted from her hands to her face.
What are you trying to say?
Li Jing smiled brightly and said in a rxed tone,Aiya, youve seen through me! Im thinking of letting Yinyin manage the Li family with me in the future. I want to announce that shes my sister and let her meet everyone with me at the next banquet.
No need, Jing Rui said indifferently.She is not interested.
Of course I know shes not interested, thats why I wanted you to talk to her! I can tell that my sister doesnt listen to anyone but you.
Li Jing seemed to have gotten used to Jing Ruis indifference. She was still in high spirits and was not affected by Jing Ruis low pressure at all.
You know that my mother has always felt that she owes Yinyin and always wants to make it up to her. Anyway, I cant spend all the Li familys money alone in a few lifetimes, so its fine to let my sister spend it with me. This way, I can fulfill my responsibility as an older sister and also make my mother happy. Why not?
Share the Li familys hundreds of billions of assets?
Jing Rui almost apuded Li Jings generosity.
Shu Yins surname was Shu, not li!
Jiang Manshu had made Li Wu a cuckold. If Li Wu was still generous enough to let his daughter give away the familys assets, he wouldnt be the dictator of the Li family who killed all his brothers and sisters in order to take all the familys assets for himself!
If you want topensate Shuyin, you dont have to go through so much trouble. Just give her a few hundred million Yuan to spend. Your father wont agree to bring her to the Li family.
Didnt he want to give Shuyin money?
Shuyin didntck money, but how could shein about having too much money?
As expected, Li Jing was stunned by Jing Ruis words.
She had thought that Jing Rui would refuse to ept the money.
You dont have to worry about my father. He dotes on me the most and dotes on my mother the most. Yinyin looks so much like my mother, so my father will definitely dote on her! However, my father might want her to change her surname to li.
Jing Rui frowned. Even if Shuyin had no feelings for her parents, she would never take another persons surname.
Just as he was about to speak, Li Jing hurriedly said,Dont be in a hurry to reject on behalf of Yinyin. If she changes her surname to li, shell be the second miss of the Li family. Her status will be very different. In the future, people like the Lou family will not dare to bully her alone because of her!

Shuyin would be the future daughter-inw of the Jing family and Jing Ruis wife. Who would dare to bully her?
Jing Rui had only been wary of Li Jing, but now he hated her more and more.
She thought that she was smart, but was everyone else a fool?
Jing Rui did not want to waste any more time with Li Jing. He was about to drive her away when the presidents assistant, Xiao Hu, knocked on the door and entered.President, theres ady with the surname Shu at thepany. She says shes your fiance, can you let her up?
Jing Rui was startled. Shuyin was here?
How could this be possible?
Didnt she live in a vi in the suburbs?
My sister is here too? Li Jing asked, pleasantly surprised. I havent seen her for a few days, get her up here!
Hu Haiyang, the Assistant to the President, was in his early 20s. He was young and promising. He was one of Jing Ruis most loyal men.
But Hu Haiyang usually only helped Jing Rui deal with business matters, and left the private matters to Hanfeng, Gao ya, and the others. So he knew Li Jings prominent identity, but did not know that Li Jing and the presidents fiance were sisters.
He was shocked and surprised, but he did not say a word. He did not listen to Li Jing, but stood there respectfully, waiting for Jing Rui to speak.
No matter what Li Jings status was, she had no right to make decisions in Jingsheng enterprise.
Jing Rui wasnt sure if the person was Shuyin, but he believed that no one would dare to use Shuyins name to meet him as his fiance.
He stood up and said to his assistant Hu Haiyang,Lets go!
Hu Haiyang was usually a smart person, but he was confused at this moment.President, where are you going?
Go and fetch her.
Hu Haiyang was shocked!
Ever since the new president took office, he had never personally gone down to pick anyone up!
Even when the old president was here, he still did what he was supposed to do and didnt give anyone special treatment.
Li Jings status was already very high, and the Li family was very powerful. As the heir of the Li family, she was the center of attention wherever she went. But when she came to Jingsheng, she would be treated coldly.
The treatment given to the presidents fiance had surpassed everyone elses and also broken the presidents own rules.
Li Jing also realized the difference in treatment between her and Shuyin. Sheined,Oh, President Jing, you really dont take me seriously. You didnt evene down to pick me up! I look very simr to my sister. Were both beautiful. The difference in your treatment is too obvious!
She was about to go downstairs with Jing Rui when he heard her footsteps. He said to Hu Haiyang without turning his head,Send President li off!
Hu Haiyang immediately smiled and extended his hand to Li Jing.Mr. Li, please take the elevator on the right and go straight down. We wee you toe to ourpany again next time!
Jing Rui said he was going to send her off, but Hu Haiyang had already figured it out. He did not really send Li Jing to the first floor. Instead, he pointed at the elevator and followed Jing Rui into the presidents private elevator to pick up Shuyin.
Li Jing almost vomited blood.
She was more valuable and respected than Shuyin, so why did Jing Rui ignore her and even ignore a small assistant?
In all honesty, Hu Haiyang was not looking down on Li Jing. This woman was beautiful and elegant, and she also had an enviable family background. She was also the sister of the presidents fiance. Hu Haiyang had nothing better to do than to offend her.
He had already tried his best to be polite and thoughtful. He couldnt possibly praise Li Jing more than his own President.
Then did he still want to be an assistant?
Seeing that Jing Rui had already gone down, Li Jing quickly entered the elevator in her ten-centimeter dark gold stiletto and her herms bag, which was worth hundreds of thousands of Yuan.
It was the first time for Shuyin to enter the office building of Jingsheng enterprise.
Thest time she was here was when Jing Xi blew up Jing Ruis office. At that time, the top of the building was smoking and the fire was so strong that she didnt get close to it. She didnt know that the building of Jingsheng enterprise was so magnificent.
The entire lobby was as spacious as a small square. A small fountain was chiming, and there were dark green Tigerskin orchids and verdant wisteria nted on both sides. There were also some shrubs that Shu Yin couldnt name. Soft music echoed throughout the entire lobby.
When she heard that she was Jing Ruis fiance, the little girl in the front hall kept looking at her with an obscure look.
Shu Yin smiled indifferently and didnt mind.
She had only sat in the reception room for a minute or two when the frosted ss door was pushed open. A handsome and cold man in a suit walked in.
Eh, why did she feel that he was exceptionally handsome today? He looked like a domineering CEO!
Shuyin smiled happily and walked to Jing Ruis side. She touched his well-defined face and said,I miss you
As soon as she finished speaking, Hu Haiyang walked in.President
Shuyin didnt expect someone to be following Jing Rui. She was shocked and quickly retracted her hand. She thought that someone might have heard what she said just now, and her face turned red.
Jing Rui held Shu Yins hand and said without looking back,Hu Haiyang, get out!
Yes, yes, yes, Ill get lost, Ill get lost!
Hu Haiyangs forehead was covered in sweat. He immediately left the reception room as fast as he could and stood guard at a ce not too far away, in case the president was disturbed.
He didnt know that the usually self-restrained President would be so sweet with his fiance in the guest room. He didnt even move after being touched on the face. If it was someone else, their hand would definitely have been chopped off!
The president had always hated it when others touched him, and it was said that he had the same problem as the old president. Hu Haiyang had always wondered if the president could touch women, but now he had no doubt about it.
It wasnt that he didnt want to touch her, he was just picking her up.
As soon as Hu Haiyang left, Jing Rui held Shu Yin tightly in his arms, lowered his head and kissed her soft lips, a little impatient.
Shu Yin was so scared that she pushed him hard.No, no! Theres someone here!
Theres no one, hes gone! Dont move, let me hold you for a while.
Shuyin blushed and stopped moving. Jing Rui pinched her chin and forced her to raise her head to ept his intense and domineering kiss. After a while, their breaths were all messed up.
I thought you were so happy living in the countryside that you forgot about me. How could you bear toe back?
Jing Rui held Shuyins soft body and caressed her back as if he was touching his most precious piece of art.
Shuyin was a little embarrassed that she had gone back on her word and returned to the city so quickly.
But her shyness did not lessen her longing and dependence on him. When she got home and did not see Jing Rui, she found out that he was working at the enterprise, so she took a taxi to hispany.
Was she being too eager?
Chapter 1263
Chapter 1263: Scheming
Trantor: 549690339
Shuyin swallowed back the words she wanted to say,I was willing toe back because I couldnt bear to leave you. She asked softly,You dont want me toe back?
Jing Rui kissed her forehead and said gently,No, I regret not bringing you home. I dont want to go home when youre not at home. I worked overtime at thepanyst night. I couldnt believe it when my assistant said you were here.
The first thing Shuyin said to him was,I missed you. Jing Rui was very happy to see her and held her waist tightly.
When Shuyin saw Jing Rui, she felt that all the cells in her body had settled down. She leaned against Jing Ruis chest and asked nervously,Isnt it a little inappropriate for me toe here? So many people are looking at me, will it have a bad influence on you?
Jing Ruiughed and coaxed her.My fiance is as beautiful as a fairy. They are all jealous of me. How could they have a bad influence on me? If anyone dares to say anything, Ill fire him tomorrow!
Jing Rui rarelyplimented Shuyins looks. He was not a talkative person, and Shuyin did not take his words seriously when he said as beautiful as a fairy.
However, she had neverplimented Jing Ruis handsomeness.
In fact, in her eyes, Jing Ruis handsomeness was beyond words.
Every morning when she opened her eyes, she would be able to see such a handsome face, and she would be in a good mood the entire day.
Although being handsome cant be eaten, it can stimte ones appetite!
Shuyin couldnt help butugh at the thought of eating an extra bowl of rice when she looked at Jing Ruis face.
Jing Rui didnt know that Shuyins mind had strayed to other ces after he said the word beautiful. He had thought that he was going to fire the gossiping employee and make his fiance happy.
The two of them had different thoughts, but they were in the same mood. They both felt that the sun outside was particrly bright at this moment.
An untimely voice rang out from outside the door,Assistant Hu, where is Jing Rui? He just left me behind like this. I wonte even if he invites me next time. I apanied him for the entire night. Look, dark circles are forming under my eyes!
Her voice was soft and sweet, with a trace of a girls lingering charm. It sounded like she wasining, but also like she was acting coquettishly. It made peoples bones go soft.
Shuyin was slightly taken aback when she heard the voice.
What was Li Jing doing here?
She had spent the night with Jing Rui? What was the meaning of this!
Shu Yin looked at Jing Rui with an unfriendly look. Jing Rui was about to exin when Hu Haiyang, who was standing outside the door, said,
President Li, youre here to discuss business with our President. Its been less than an hour, and the meeting minutes have been recorded. Since the business discussion is over, you can indeed leave. Our President is talking to his fiance. Please dont disturb him. A cooperation is a cooperation, and a private matter is a private matter. Please understand.
He had made it clear that Li Jing had not been with Jing Rui the whole night, nor had she been alone with him. Someone had been taking minutes of the meeting.
Jing Rui suddenlyughed! It seemed that he should give Hu Haiyang a bonus.
In fact, he had been talking with Li Jing for more than an hour, and no one had taken any minutes of the meeting. They were discussing trade secrets rted to production techniques, and Li Jing had requested that no outsiders were allowed to be present, so only the two of them were present.
However, when Li Jing said those words, it sounded like they had done something shamefulst night.
It was no wonder that Shuyins eyes immediately red at him like daggers. Anyone who heard such words would easily misunderstand.
I rushed back from the suburbs to see you when the sun just rose. I missed you so much that I couldnt sleep all night, but you found a beautiful woman to chat with?
Shuyin bit her lip and stomped on Jing Ruis foot. Jing Rui hissed in pain and said in a low voice,What kind of beauty is she? Youre the only person I can find to chat with! Dont listen to her nonsense, were talking about the recent cooperation!
When did you two start working together? Howe I didnt know about it?
Shuyin didnt think that Li Jing wasnt a beauty. Li Jing was so beautiful that both men and women were attracted to her. Even Shuyin herself admitted that Li Jing was a rare beauty. She was even more stunning than Jiang Manshu when she was young.
Shuyin wasnt stupid enough to think that nothing had happened between a young man and a charming woman for an entire night.
Even if he didnt have any now, he couldnt guarantee that he wouldnt have any in the future.
She was not so magnanimous to give her man to another woman.
Although she didnt have any grudges with Li Jing and they hadnt had any conflicts until now, they definitely didnt have any sisterhood.
This is just the beginning of our cooperation. Its just a small matter. I wanted to tell you after weve settled it, but you just happened to meet me here.
Jing Rui could only exin helplessly. When Shuyin got jealous, he really couldnt handle it.
She had a high IQ, a meticulous mind, and was prone to overthinking. He had to deal with her carefully and carefully.
This was much more difficult than dealing with Li Jing!
After all, Jing Rui did not care about Li Jings feelings at all, and he did not have to be careful with his words.
Li Jing was still talking to Hu Haiyang outside. She seemed to be a little angry, and her voice was a little high-pitched.Your President is my brother-inw, why cant I go in? cant I see my sister? This was too overbearing! Get out of my way, I want to go in and see my sister!
Hu Haiyang refused to let her in and kept chasing her away.
Shu Yin nced at Jing Rui and pushed him away. She said,Let her in,
Jing Rui was not sure if Shuyin was really angry. She looked very calm, but sometimes even if Shuyin was angry, she could control herself and not let anyone see her emotions.
Jing Rui had nothing to hide from Shuyin. Seeing her sitting down on the sofa in the living room, as if she wanted to talk to Li Jing, he could only shout out,Assistant Hu, let President li in.
Hu Haiyang said yes and let Li Jing into the reception room.
Li Jingined to Jing Rui as soon as she entered the room.Rui, what kind of assistant is this? hes too inflexible. I want to talk to you and my sister, but hes blocking me. You should quickly get someone else!
Her tone was familiar and natural, as if she had known Jing Rui for a long time and were good friends who could talk about anything.
Shu Yin and Jing Rui frowned at the same time.
Rui?
Who allowed her to call him that?
Shuyins first reaction was to look at Jing Rui angrily. Jing Rui, who was afraid that Shuyin would misunderstand, also looked at her immediately.
The two of them looked at each other and saw the dissatisfaction in each others eyes at how Li Jing had addressed him.
Chapter 1264
Chapter 1264: Not interested
Trantor: 549690339
Li Jing didnt seem to notice the dissatisfaction between the two of them. She stepped forward and held Shu Yins arm, smiling sweetly.Little sister, I havent seen you for many days. Why did you suddenly think of this ce?
Why did these words make people so ufortable?
Shuyin felt that she should be the one asking this question!
This was Jing Ruispany and the Jing familys building. Did she have to report to Li Jing?
Shuyin nced at Jing Rui with a sharp look in her eyes. She pulled her arm out of Li Jings hand and said,Do you have anything else to say to Jing Rui? Then Ill take him away.
Yinyin, Im your sister, your only sister. Why are you always so distant from me?
Because youre flirting with my fianc on purpose in front of me. Its especially unlikable. What do you think of this reason?
Li Jing was stunned. She didnt expect Shuyin to be so direct!
However, she quickly smiled.Silly girl, youre jealous! Youre thinking too much, arent you? Jing Rui is my brother-inw, so he can be more casual with his words. Im just worried about you. Ive been keeping an eye on her for you, in case he does anything bad!
Shuyin looked at Li Jing in confusion. Did this person think she was a fool? Or was Li Jing just so thick-skinned that she could turn ck into white?
His words sounded better than anyone else s, but in fact, his table manners were very ugly.
In the past, Shuyin didnt have a good impression of Li Jing, but she didnt have a bad impression of her either. At most, she just treated her as a stranger.
But today, Li Jings behavior had made Shuyin ufortable from beginning to end.
Moreover, this kind of difort waspletely indescribable. Did Li Zhi curse? No! Did Li Jing say anything bad about her? Also nothing!
Her words were full of affection and praise. Those who didnt know would think that they were really close sisters!
Shuyin wasnt good at scheming, but that didnt mean she couldnt see through the little schemes between girls.
Li Jing and Jiang Manshu had nothing to do with being intimate. A mother like Jiang Manshu was dispensable. Shuyin didnt care if Jiang Manshu doted on Li Jing more, but Jing Rui was different. Shuyin would never allow Li Jing and Jing Rui to have any ambiguous rtionship!
Shu Yin turned to look at Jing Rui and said,Im tired. Ill go home first. You can continue to discuss the cooperation with Miss Li!
Shuyin would push Li Jing to the side, but Jing Ruis attitude was more important. If he gave Li Jing any hope, Li Jing would stop pestering him.
Seeing that Jing Ruis happy mood had been destroyed, Shuyin calmed down and walked out with a calm face.
Li Jing stopped her immediately,Yinyin, dont throw a tantrum. I really came to Jingsheng enterprise for you! Mom said that she wants to make it up to you. She wants you to move into the Li family and be the second miss of the Li family!
Shuyins lips curved into a mocking smile and she said in a cold voice,Im not interested!
After she finished speaking, she pushed the door open and walked out. When she saw Hu Haiyang standing guard outside the door, she even nodded and greeted him politely.
Hu Haiyang had heard everything that was said. He now understood that not only were Li Jing and Shuyin not close, but every word they said was filled with murderous intent. The rtionship between the two was a little bad!
He quickly shed a smile at Shuyin to express his deepest sincerity, so that Shuyin wouldnt misunderstand that he was on Li Jings side.
In fact, Shuyin did not care which side Hu Haiyang was on. As long as Jing Rui was on her side, so what if the whole world was against her?
Shuyin left without any hesitation, leaving Jing Rui standing there with a bitter smile.
Everything had been fine, sweet and heartwarming, but Li Jing had ruined everything!
This was the first time he realized that when Shuyin got jealous, she wouldnt leave anyone a way out!
Jing Rui turned to Li Jing and said,President li, the contract between both parties is temporarily suspended. I will send someone tomunicate with you regarding the subsequent issues.
Previously, he still valued this cooperation very much, but now that his wife was unhappy and forced him to cooperate, he would probably have to go home and suffer from daggers.
Li Jing knew that this cooperation was attractive enough for Jingsheng enterprise. She had never expected that Jing Rui, who had never thought of giving up the cooperation when she had mentioned so many harsh details, would give up the deal that was worth millions just because of Shuyins words.
Family Jing was rich, but they couldnt just ignore the money.
She watched Jing Rui chase after Shuyin, and her gentle eyes turned cold.
Hu Haiyang saw that his boss was chasing his fiance, but he didnt join in the fun. Instead, he pushed the door open and tried to invite Li Jing out.
However, as soon as he entered the room, he saw Li Jings eyes, which she had not managed to retract in time.
Sharp, cold, with a hint of viciousness and an indescribable killing intent that made people tremble!
She was apletely different person from the gentle, charming, beautiful, and Noble Li Zhi!
Hu Haiyang had never killed a chicken in his life, let alone a human. The murderous look in Li Jings eyes gave him goosebumps.
However, Li Jing instantly returned to her usual gentle self and walked out of the reception room.
Hu Haiyang almost thought that what he had just felt was an illusion!
However, he clearly knew that it wasn t!
The Li familys eldest daughter had hundreds of billions of assets. So many people had been eyeing her covetously, but she had not been able to gain any benefits. Li Jing could not be as gentle as she appeared to be!
Hu Haiyangs heart had been moved by Li Jings beauty, but now his heart was clenched tightly, and he didnt dare move.
Jing Rui chased Shuyin all the way home. Seeing that Shuyin was ignoring him, he pulled her into his arms and pressed her down on the bed.
Are you angry?
No, I didn t,
If youre not angry, why didnt you wait for me? You didnt even want to take my car and insisted on taking a taxi back, and you still say youre not angry?
Your car is a little busy. You have so many business partners. People like boss li might need you to pick them up more.
Jing Rui suddenlyughed. He turned over andid down on the bed with Shuyin on top of him. They were in a position where the man was below the woman.
You can do whatever you want to me today, but dont use me. You and Han Feng have been in my car before. It has nothing to do with you, President li.
Shu Yiny on Jing Ruis body. She did not struggle to leave, but she did not do anything either.
She felt that she had to make her stand clear and reject Jing Rui from being intimate with any other woman.
However, before she could say anything, Jing Rui touched her head and said gently,Silly girl, dont be jealous. Ive already stopped working with Li Jing. I wont see her again.
Chapter 1265
Chapter 1265: Youll definitely be famous
Trantor: 549690339
It was just a simple sentence, but it made the difort in Shuyins heart dissipate.
Do you think Li Jing is pretty? she asked, blinking.
Jing Rui took off Shu Yins clothes and said,I didnt pay much attention to it. When I saw her, Ive been thinking about how to earn her money. The Li family is very rich. Its a pity that you didnt agree to be the second young miss of the Li family. What a prodigal daughter-inw!
His tone was teasing, and he despised Shuyin for being a wastrel. He took off Shuyins clothes and couldnt help but praise,Yinyin, your skin is so nice. Its so soft and smooth. Lets not wear clothes when we sleep next time!
Shuyin bit him angrily. They were just talking about serious things just now. Why did he suddenly be so indecent?!
She had never cared about her appearance before, nor did she think that beauty was an important thing.
But after seeing Li Jing deliberately getting close to Jing Rui, she suddenly felt lucky that she was not ugly. Otherwise, she would feel ashamed standing next to Li Jing, who was so beautiful.
If Jing Rui had said that Li Jing was not pretty, Shuyin would not have believed him. Li Jing was a real beauty in everyones eyes.
But if he said that Li Jing was pretty, Shuyin would feel ufortable.
Answering YES or NO to this question was a trap, but Jing Rui avoided it easily. Shuyin felt that he had learned his lesson and be cunning.
Dont touch me! Not only did you not answer my question, but you also bit me back and took off my clothes to divert my attention!
Seeing Shuyins slim figure, Jing Ruis body changed uncontrobly. He held Shuyin in his arms and said in a low and sexy voice,
Yinyin, youre using me again. How can I be indifferent when youre on me? As for the other women, I really didnt pay much attention to what they look like. Youre so beautiful, and I didnt waver when I first saw you. Is there anyone more beautiful than you in this world?
Jing Rui couldnt wait to get in. He only had Shuyin in his eyes and heart, and he couldnt think of Li Jing at this time.
However, Shuyin was not cooperative at all. She twisted and turned on him, dodging him and leaving teeth marks on Jing Ruis body. Jing Rui finally couldnt take it anymore. He turned over and pressed Shuyin under him again, feeling her beauty.
If you keep moving, Ill make sure you cant get out of bed today
Im tired, I want to sleep!
We are sleeping!
Shuyins body was weak, and her arms wrapped around Jing Ruis neck like water snakes. Her voice was so flirtatious that she didnt even notice it. You dont sleep like this
Oh? You even learned a new posture? Who did he learn it from? Howe I didnt know about this?
Jing Ruis wife-flirting skills had improved, but Jing Zhis flirting skills had not decreased.
Histest bald head was so bright that it could blind people. He didnt need to do anything on the street to attract the eyes of many beautiful women.
It was said that being bald was the best way to test a beautiful woman, and it was also the best way to test a handsome man.
Jing Rui had inherited Jing Yichens good looks, while Jing Zhi had inherited Jing Yirans good looks.
The two types of beauty werepletely different. Jing Zhi had once been troubled by his overly beautiful appearance for a long time, so the distress of shaving his head was immediately gone. The sense of handsomeness was washed away, and a trace of manliness was added to his appearance.
A city was full of beautiful women and handsome men, and many celebrities were from A city. Jing Zhi was always handed a business card by someone who wanted to sign him under theirpanys name whenever he walked on the street.
With such a good appearance, it would be a pity not to be a star!
Today, Jing Zhi went out to buy some underwear for himself, but he was stopped by someone who cried and begged to be his manager.
If it was in North America, he would have kicked the man into the Pacific Ocean without saying a word. But now that he was in A city, he didnt want to cause unnecessary trouble for his brother.
Get lost. If you stop me again, I Ill call the police!
Jing Zhi had never thought that he would one day say such amon line.
However, he really didnt know how to threaten the person in front of him. He had said that he would kill him, but the other party didnt take it seriously at all!
He had no choice but to use the police, who he thought was the most useless.
In the end
It was still useless!
Young man, how old are you? I see that youre very handsome and fit to be a star! Are you interested in going to Hollywood to film?
Dont you have any dreams? If you have a dream, tell me and Ill help you realize it! As an actor, you can try out different roles and enjoy different lives. Arent you tempted?
Im a famous gold-tier manager! Im the one who discovered and packaged a few of the current a-listers. Since youre guarding this huge treasure trove and dont know how to develop it, Ill help you develop it!
The man was rambling on as hey on the ground, not caring about his image at all. He hugged Jing Zhis leg tightly and kept pulling his pants, refusing to let him go.
Jing Zhis pants were almost ripped off by the man on the ground. One of his shoes was nowhere to be seen and he was still holding the underwear he had just bought.
The crowd had gathered in the mall, pointing and whispering, but Jing Zhis hearing was so good that he could hear everything clearly.
He had never been in such a sorry state in his life!
Especially when he looked up and saw Zheng yuluo in the crowd, looking at him in surprise. Jing Zhi grabbed the person on the ground, put him under his arm, and fled.
He had to teach this so-called manager a good lesson!
He couldnt kill her, but he could at least beat her half to death, right?
Jing Zhi took her to a corner of the underground parking lot. Seeing that the surveince cameras couldnt capture her, he kicked her.Bastard, do you know who I am? My brother is
He was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly stopped and did not dare to continue.
She had better not ruin her brothers reputation, or he would be scolded again. He was still angry about what happened to Jing Xi!
The manager was screaming in pain, but still wouldnt let go of Jing Zhis leg. He held on to Jing Zhis leg and insisted that he be a star.
Ive always had good taste, youll definitely be famous! Ill definitely be famous too! You can either kill me or leave with me. You have such a good figure and such a handsome face. The whole worlds entertainment industry is open to you!
The more he said, the more he bragged!
Jing Zhi didnt believe her at all, but he couldnt really kill her.
Get lost, I dont want to be famous, and I dontck money! Dont pull my pants, my pants are worth tens of thousands, can you afford to pay for it if you break it!
Impossible! I asked the staff at that lingerie shop just now, and they said you dont have any money to buy your underwear!

Jing Zhi gritted his teeth in anger. He took his underwear out of the bag and almost shouted,Open your dog eyes and take a good look. I bought ten pairs of underwear. Who said I cant afford them?!
Zheng yuluo followed Jing Zhi to the underground parking lot. She watched carefully from a distance and heard Jing Zhi talking to the manager who was hugging his leg about buying underwear. She felt a little embarrassed.
Family Jing was so rich that it was impossible for Jing Zhi to not be able to afford a pair of underwear. He even drove a luxury sports car that was worth millions of Yuan.
However, she soon heard the person on the ground say,These 10 pairs of underwear are all on sale and are sold out, so theyre not worth anything! The service staff said that these underwear cant be sold. If you have money, would you buy this kind of discounted underwear that costs five Yuan a pair?
Zheng yuluos eyes widened in shock. Jing Zhi had spent a lot of money when he bought her undergarments. They were all thetest designs of the season. How could he have bought discounted ones for her?
Was he really out of money?
Jing Rui would not be so stingy to his brother, would he?
This shopping mall belonged to Jingsheng enterprise. Didnt he give Jing Zhi a shopping card?
Zheng yuluo had no idea that she was the culprit behind Jing Ruis harsh economic sanctions.
Jing Zhi was so angry that he almost went berserk when he was exposed of the price of his underwear.
When he looked up and saw Zheng yuluo standing not far away, the anger almost drove him crazy!
He had no money. He had been paid as a security guard at Jingsheng enterprise, but after he and Jing Xi blew up Jing Ruis officest time, he had not been fired, but he had lost his sry.
Now that he was working at Jingsheng enterprise, Jing Rui would not give him any money to spend.
He only had 300 yuan on him now, and Jing Xi had given it to him with her own pocket money because she felt sorry for him.
Jing Zhi now truly felt that he couldnt move without money.
I bought discounted underwear today and Im being despised by a swindler!
Jing Zhi didnt know if Zheng yuluo despised him, but he couldnt keep his face down in front of the woman he liked.
Jing Zhi shouted at Zheng yuluo unhappily,What are you standing here for? Go away, dont let me see you!
Nothing good would happen when he saw Zheng yuluo!
No wonder there was a situation today. It turned out that Zheng yuluo had been by his side all along!
Jing Zhi was so angry that he implicated others. This had nothing to do with Zheng yuluo. She had juste to the mall to buy something and identally bumped into Jing Zhi.
He was too good-looking and had been targeted!
Zheng yuluo was startled by Jing Zhis roar. She took a few steps back involuntarily, but then she gritted her teeth and stopped moving.
Jing Zhi was a man of few words, and he had never done anything to hurt her, even when he hated her the most.
He just looked a little scary and sometimes he couldnt control his temper. But Zheng yuluo had heard from her father that Jing Zhis temper wasnt voluntary, but the virus in his body had affected his emotions.
His bad temper was not a big deal to Zheng yuluo. She could still tolerate this shoring.
Zheng yuluo took out her wallet from her shoulder bag and said hesitantly,If youre short on money, I can give you some first. I only have a little more than 1000 Yuan in cash, but Its enough to buy underwear.
Jing Zhi felt that his dignity had been seriously challenged.
Using a womans money to buy underwear?
He would rather be naked!
Jing Zhi was so angry that he bent down and broke the fingers of the man who was holding his leg one by one to free his leg. Then he took his underwear and left with a cold face without looking at Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo also felt that she might have said something wrong. She put her wallet back awkwardly and was about to turn around and leave, but she heard the person lying on the ground say,
Little girl, whats your rtionship with that young man just now? Are you a good friend?
They didnt look like a couple, but since they could buy underwear for a poor man with a thousand Yuan, they shouldnt be too distant.
Youd better persuade him. Being a celebrity is the fastest way to earn money! He had such good looks and a good figure, it would be a pity if he wasnt a star! Hes so poor that not only cant he afford underwear, but he also cant even afford to eat. He even shaved his head and went to Dayun temple to be a monk to freeload! If youre willing to be a monk, why not a celebrity?
What?
Zheng yuluo stopped in her tracks, suspecting that she had heard wrong!
Was Jing Zhis real purpose of shaving his head to freeload food at Dayun temple?
Didnt Jing Rui love his brother the most?
Why didnt he even let him eat?
Did something happen that she did not know about? Did Jing Zhi and Jing Rui fall out?
Zheng yuluo was so worried that she was no longer in the mood to shop. She found an ATM, took out the 20000 Yuan from her card, put it in her bag, and took a taxi to Jing Zhis Vi.
Jing Zhi was not at home at the moment. He went to Jing Ruis ce to ask for money.
Brother, give me some money to spend!
Jing Rui had just had an intimate moment with Shuyin. Shuyin was still lying in bed, exhausted, but he had taken a shower and was drinking coffee in the living room.
He didnt even lift his eyes when he heard Jing Zhis words. He said calmly,You saw Zheng yuluo again?
Jing Zhi was shocked and blurted out,how did you know? Did you get someone to follow me again? Brother, Im not a child, dont monitor me!
His tone was very aggressive, revealing a kind of irritation and dissatisfaction.
Jing Rui finally looked up at Jing Zhi and said coldly,Go look at yourself in the mirror and see what kind of expression you have on your face! Who else but Zheng yuluo could make you have such an expression? Do I need to send someone to follow you?
You didnt ask for money a few days ago when you ran out. Why did you suddenly ask for it today? Other than Zheng yuluo, I cant think of anyone else who can make you speak! Youre an idiot, So You Think Im an idiot too?
Jing Zhi had lost Shuyin and Jing Xi because he only cared about Zheng yuluo. Jing Rui had not settled the score with him yet, and he hade to him angrily today to ask for money. He even suspected that Jing Zhi had hired someone to follow him!
Why did I get someone to follow you? Other people might not know, but dont you know it yourself? Am I doing this to monitor your rtionship? Im just afraid that the bunch of lunatics from the Research Institute wille looking for you again. Its so that they can protect you at the first moment if something happens to you!
Jing Ruis expression changed, and Jing Zhi knew that he had said something wrong.

Chapter 1267: The future path
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi used to respect and fear his brother, and he had never spoken to him in such a harsh tone. He was so upset that he felt embarrassed in front of Zheng yuluo that he even started toin about Jing Rui.
Jing Zhi wanted to apologize to his brother, but Jing Rui, who usually indulged him, did not give him any chance to speak.
Do you think I have a lot of those experts who were transferred to your side? Not only does it cost a lot of money to train a loyal expert, but it also requires me to put in a lot of effort! Otherwise, why would anyone work for me?
I withdrew those people two months ago. With your strength, how could you not know if there were people following you? Youve lost your mind, and youre questioning me right away. Is water in your head?
Get out of here, and Ill pretend I dont have a brother like you. I spent seven years to save a dog from North America, and itll be grateful! Go with Zheng yuluo. From now on, youre not allowed to step into my house!
Jing Rui rarely spoke so much in one breath. He was a man who did not show his emotions on his face. Even when he was talking to his favorite Shuyin, he would not exin so much.
To be able to force him to say such a long sentence, it was enough to prove how angry and bitterly disappointed he was at this moment.
What had Zheng yuluo done for Jing Zhi? Had she risked her life for him or gotten injured for him?
If it had not been for her, Jing Rui, the heir of a hundred billion Yuan, would not have had to suffer seven years of inhuman torture, and would not have given up on being a rich young master to be an executioner.
Jing Rui couldnt understand where Jing Zhis love for Zheng yuluo came from. Although he didnt like Zheng yuluo, he had acquiesced to Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo being together.
The reason why he opposed itter was because Zheng yuluo had caused too much trouble!
Did he put in so much effort to save Jing Zhi just so that Zheng yuluo could harm him?
Jing Zhi must have been triggered by Zheng yuluo today. Otherwise, he wouldnt have spoken to him in such a questioning and angry tone.
He had not even done anything with Zheng yuluo yet, but he was about to disown him. Jing Rui felt as if his heart was being stabbed by a knife, and it was bleeding drop by drop.
Jing Rui walked out of the vi with a cold face, and Han Feng and Gao ya followed him into the living room.
Han Feng looked at Jing Zhi and said in an unfriendly tone,Young master, please leave. This is our bosss house. The mistress of the house is sleeping here. Its not appropriate for you to be here!
He used to call Jing Zhi master Zhi, but now he was calling him this young master.
Gao yas delicate and kind face was also covered with a rare frost. He and Han Feng were waiting outside to report the situation and happened to hear the dispute between the two brothers. Now, they were mad with anger!
Our boss even assigned the three Qing Ling sisters to you to protect Xiao Ling and Zheng yuluo. All of this was exposed because of you! When boss wanted to protect Shuyin, he only asked me to bring people to protect her. He didnt even use Qing Ling and the other two. You still dont know whats good for you!
Of course, it was more convenient to use girls to protect girls, because they could be protected at close range.
But it was hard to find Masters like Qing Ling and the other two, so Jing Rui used them on Jing Zhi without thinking, which made Gao ya mumble for a long time.
Gao ya had always felt that Zheng yuluo was not a good woman. She always caused trouble.
Shuyins family background and the situation she was facing now were much moreplicated than Zheng yuluo s, but she had never caused any trouble for Jing Rui.
If Zheng yuluos father had been killed, would she still be with Jing Zhi?
Jing Zhi was a little angry and helpless at the two mens tant disdain.
His tone today was not very good, and he did not think before he spoke, but his brothers reaction was a little too big, right?
However, Jing Zhi did not know that it was because he had not used his brain and that everything he said and did was the most real reaction in his subconscious mind that Jing Rui was so angry.
Today, Jing Zhineng had gone against him because of Zheng yuluo. If Zheng yuluo asked Jing Zhi to kill his brother, would Jing Zhi point a gun at him?
Jing zhishang didnt know that his behavior had stabbed his brother in the heart. He thought that his brother would only be angry for a few days, and he would be fine after a few days.
He returned to his house and saw Zheng yuluo standing at his door. He was annoyed again.
What are you doing here? Didnt I tell you not toe to my house?
Im here to give you some money.
Zheng yuluo put the money into Jing Zhis car and asked in a low voice,Did you fight with your brother? Why didnt he give you money to spend?
She really touched on a sore spot!
Jing Zhi stuffed the money back into Zheng yuluos bag and suppressed his anger.Hurry up, Ive not caught the culprit who attacked youst time. Stay as far away from me as possible!
Zheng yuluo didnt move. She looked up into Jing Zhis eyes and asked in a low voice,Then why did you kiss me at Dayun temple?
Because he missed her too much, he couldnt hold back.
Jing Zhis anger suddenly dissipated. He hadnt had a good talk with Zheng yuluo for a long time. Every time they met, something always happened. He treated Zheng yuluo coldly, but Zheng yuluo still came to give him money. It was a miracle.
His tone softened and he lowered his head. Lets go home. Im fine here, so you dont have to worry. When Im done with everything, Ille and find you.
He couldnt make Zheng yuluo cry after he had just angered his brother.
Zheng yuluo left soon after, but she left all the money to Jing Zhi before she left.
Jing Zhi put the 20000 Yuan on the marble table in the living room. He looked a little confused.
He had never felt that he was useless before, but now, he truly felt that he was useless.
Jing Rui did not owe him anything, and he was used to asking for money from Jing Rui. He was very unhappy that Jing Rui did not give him money to spend.
Did he have to rely on Zheng yuluos money to survive now?
He had no interest in running apany, and he did not like to learn about the things in the business world. Jing Rui had given him a smallpany to practice, but he had closed it down within a few days.
The only thing he was good at was killing, but this was not what he liked. Unless it was an extremely abnormal person, who would be willing to kill all day long?
The assassins in the assassin organization all wanted to leave the organization and be ordinary people!
What else could he do?
Jing Zhi touched his face, then took out a card from his pocket. It was the card that the man had stuffed into his pocket at the mall today.
The cards were exquisitely made, and were several grades higher than ordinary business cards.
It was clearly written on it,gold manager: Xuanji, Jin Xin.
There was Jin Xins phone number on it, as well as a lot of bragging words, such as the Star of Tomorrow, and making a lot of money every day.
Could it be that he could only be a celebrity?

Chapter 1268: Gold will always shine
Trantor: 549690339
It had been half a month since that day, but Jing Zhi had not seen Jing Rui. He was not allowed to enter Jingsheng enterprise or Jing Ruis Vi.
He couldnt even get through to his phone!
Even Jing Xi, who came to y with him almost every day, did note.
Jing Zhi finally realized the seriousness of the matter. He went to look for Jing Rui several times, but was blocked by the cold wind.
Jing Zhi was sure to win against Han Feng. Even if Han Feng and Gao ya joined forces, they would not be able to defeat him. But he could not fight them head-on. They were Jing Ruis most loyal subordinates. Jing Rui must have ordered him not to go in, and that was why they were trying so hard to stop him.
Jing Zhi was walking on the street, a little disappointed. His brother was ignoring him. He had spent almost all the money Zheng yuluo gave him. His body consumed a lot of energy every day. He had to spend a lot on every meal. His sports car also consumed a lot of gas. Twenty thousand Yuan was like a drop in the ocean for him.
Was he going to starve next?
Jing Zhi was still troubled by this when a figure rushed out from the side, knelt down quickly, and hugged his leg.Young man, Ive been waiting for you!
Jing Zhi looked down and saw that it was Jin Xin, the top manager who had wanted him to be a starst time!
He had been worried that he couldnt find this person, but Jin Xin hade to him!
If it had not been for Jin Xin, Jing Rui would not have been so annoyedst time.
Jing Zhi picked her up from the ground and carried her to a corner like a chicken.You still dare toe and find me, youre really not afraid of death!
Jin Xin didnt know that Jing Zhi used to be a demon who killed without blinking an eye. He only thought that this young mans appearance was perfect, with a perfect figure and a handsome face. No one in the entire entertainment industry couldpare to him. It would be a pity to let him go!
He had been in the entertainment industry for more than ten years and had seen countless men and women who would do anything to be a star. He didnt believe that Jing Zhi wouldnt be tempted by this bright career.
Dont hit me first, Im really a manager, not a liar. Many celebrities became famous because of me, dont you want to be famous? Dont you want to earn money that you cant spend?
Jin Xin suspected that Jing Zhi thought he was a scammer, and that was why he didnt care about him.
There were indeed a lot of people who used the name of agents to cheat people of their money and sex, but he was not a liar!
Jing Zhis fist was about tond on Jin Xins face when he heard the word money, and he stopped.
He was really poor now, but he was at ease to spend Jing Ruis money, because he was his brother, and they were family.
However, spending the 20000 Yuan from Zheng yuluo had made him feel awkward until now. He always wanted to quickly earn the money and return it to her.
He was a bit of a male chauvinist. Spending a womans money was like living off a woman. His pride did not allow him to do so.
Jin Xin was good at reading peoples expressions. Seeing Jing Zhis change in attitude, he immediately added,If you dont believe me, I can take an advertisement for you right now, and youll get a huge sum of money immediately! When youre famous in the future, youll have so much money that youll be annoyed!
No one would everin about having too much money or being annoyed by it. Jing Zhi was in need of money at the moment, and he wished that all the money in the world was in his pocket!
Youd better be telling the truth. If you lie, Ill make sure youll never be a man for the rest of your life!
Jin Xin turned a deaf ear to Jing Zhis threat. He was already jumping up and down in joy at Jing Zhis agreement to be a star. Thats great! Thats great! The future of the entertainment industry had one more dazzling star! And this star was personally discovered by me, Jin Xin. Id like to see if theres anyone whos blind enough to look down on me in the future!
Jing Zhi rolled his eyes. He hadnt even had a chance to start a rtionship yet, and he was already fantasizing about how powerful he would be in the future. Was he a liar?
If it was someone else, they might be afraid of being lied to, but Jing Zhi didnt have such concerns. Anyone who dared to lie to him was asking for death.
Jin Xin had been in the entertainment industry for many years and had a lot of resources at his disposal, but because Jing Zhi was a newbie with no fame or experience, he didnt get anymercial offers. He only got a photoshoot from a magazine.
The person in charge of the magazine was also surprised to see Jing Zhi in person. The person who was supposed to be Jing Zhi was a small star, but he changed her without hesitation after seeing Jing Zhi.
He even offered Jing Zhi 50000 Yuan.
For a newbie, this was already breaking the magazines limits.
A normal newbie would only get 10000 to 20000 Yuan for a magazine cover shoot.
The stylist was GAY, and when he saw Jing Zhi, he pinched his throat and wanted to throw himself into his arms. If Jin Xin hadnt stopped him, the stylist would have kissed him.
The makeup artist was a married woman in her thirties. She was past the age of chasing stars and had seen a lot of card stars. She had an extraordinary resistance to handsome men, but when she saw Jing Zhi, she felt that her girlish heart came back to life!
When Jing Zhi stood in front of the photographer in the studio with his makeup and clothes changed, everyone was shocked by his powerful aura.
He didnt need to deliberately make any posture. He only needed to stand there coldly. One look was enough to make people submit.
Even if he was bald, even if there was not a trace of a smile on his face, he still made people unable to open their eyes under the re of the cameras.
Everyone felt that this young man who was only 18 years old was going to be famous!
Qin Zhendong, the person in charge of the impurities control department, was an old friend of Jin Xin. He looked at Jing Zhi, who appeared to be a little inexperienced in the studio, and nudged Jin Xins shoulder with his arm.Where did you find the gold?
Jin Xin was so proud of himself that his chin was almost raised to the sky.There are four gold in my name, I was born with a Golden Life! I didnt even need to look for it, and the gold came to me!
He didnt mention that he had taken a lot of punches from Jing Zhi in order to get him into the entertainment industry, and that his clothes were stained with Jing Zhis footprints.
Qin Zhendong directly exposed his mask,Come on, she obviously doesnt want to follow you. Just now, when you were acting like a grandson in front of her, all my people here saw it! I think hes your father!
Jin Xin didnt get angry even after being humiliated. He was excited to see Jing Zhi again.As long as hes willing to enter the entertainment industry, so what if Im his grandson? Im going to show those cruel and unscrupulous things that if I can make them famous, I can also make others famous!
Qin Zhendong patted his shoulder and said,this time, you will seed! Ive never seen anyone with a better appearance than him!
Jin Xins eyes suddenly turned red, and he said firmly,We definitely will!

Jing Zhi was getting impatient with the photographers constant demand for him to pose. The shoot had only gone on for fifteen minutes before he gave up.
Im not filming anymore, are you guys fooling around? Whats the difference between going left and right?
The photographer was speechless. This newbie clearly didnt know anything and was still so self-righteous. Of course there was a difference between going left and right!
Seeing this, Jin Xin immediately stepped forward and stuffed 10000 Yuan in cash into his hands.My dear ancestor, you can earn 10000 Yuan in ten minutes of filming. Where else can you find such an easy money-making ce? Hold on for a little longer, we have to get a shot of your most handsome side!
He knew that Jing Zhi was short on money, so he asked Qin Zhendong to give him cash! Giving him the money on the spot was much more impactful than transferring it to his card!
Jing Zhi felt a little happy as he held the ten thousand Yuan.
Could he really earn money on his own?
No need to kill, no need to Rob, and no need to spend womens money?
When she was working as a security guard for her brother for a month, it was only 10000 Yuan, but that was the highest sry among security guards!
This money indeed came quickly!
Hold on to this for me, Jing Zhi said, handing the money back to Jin Xin. You can give it to me when we leave.
Jin Xin was taken aback. Jing Zhi wasnt afraid that he would run away with the money? Or would she not give him the photos after taking them?
She trusted him so much?
Jin Xin took the money and walked out of the studio. He stood a short distance away, watching Jing Zhi patiently make all kinds of cool and handsome poses. He was a little touched.
What he didnt know was that Jing Zhi wasnt afraid of him running away or not returning the money. Even if he ran to the end of the world, Jing Zhi would find him and bring him back.
If he had known how many people Jing Zhi had killed, he would have been suppressed for the rest of his life instead of clinging to Jing Zhis leg for so long.
After another ten minutes, Jing Zhi finally gave up and was about to leave with a cold face. Jin Xin gave him another ten thousand Yuan, and his face finally looked a little better.
After half an hour of shooting, the photographer was actually very satisfied.
The model was young and handsome with perfect 360-degree angles. His skin was so tender that water could be squeezed out of it. His bald head was so unique that he looked good no matter how he was shot. Post-editing could be almost omitted!
Jing Zhi changed his clothes, put the 20000 Yuan in a paper bag given to him by the magazine agency, and followed Jin Xin out.
He still couldnt believe that he had earned 20000 Yuan in such a short time!
It wasnt that he had never seen money before. In fact, in his previous 18 years of life, he had never been troubled by money. Money was just a number in his eyes.
It was only recently that Jing Zhi understood the true meaning of money.
He also knew that it was not easy to earn money. He had no academic qualifications and no expertise. No matter where he went, no one would want him.
Jing Zhi nced at Jin Xin, who looked thin and weak. He took out ten thousand Yuan and handed it to him.Many thanks!
Jin Xin was taken aback, but he quicklyughed and said,at least you have a conscience! These are all for you, you deserve them, so of course I have them too!
He was obviously short on money, but he gave him half of it without hesitation. This meant that he didnt choose the wrong person. At least Jing Zhi had a good character and knew how to repay kindness.
Now that he had money, Jin Xin took Jing Zhi to a high-end restaurant and treated him to a meal.
When Jing Zhi finished, Jin Xin almost cried.
Was this a pig? How could he eat so much!
10,000 Yuan was gone just like that!
He had nned to use the remaining 30000 Yuan to buy a new outfit for Jing Zhi, so that he wouldnt be aughingstock in a pair of cheap underwear.
Great, there were only 20000 left!
Fine, hed better take Jing Zhi to a roadside stall tomorrow.
Jin Xin grumbled for an hour, but still took Jing Zhi to the shopping mall. He bought Jing Zhi a set of clothes and a baseball cap, and spent the remaining twenty thousand Yuan.
Jing Zhi didnt actuallyck clothes. Jing Rui had bought him a lot of clothes from top brands, but Jin Xin thought that Jing Zhi couldnt even afford underwear, and that the clothes he was wearing must be counterfeits. He had no idea that Jing Zhis clothes were worth tens of thousands.
Im not wearing a hat, I look ugly!
How can we do that! Do you know how handsome your face is? Dont you know how much of a character you have as a bald head? We have to keep a low profile and reduce other peoples impression of you before you be famous!
Jing Zhi had lived for 18 years, but he had never known what it meant to keep a low profile. He had always been high-profile, and even when the killers couldnt see the light of day, he had never deliberately kept a low profile.
Besides, he wasnt famous, so who on the street would know him?
Jin Xin wouldnt agree to it no matter what. He insisted that Jing Zhi put on the hat, saying that he wanted to maintain a sense of mystery so that he could shock the entire entertainment industry.
Jing Zhi was on the verge of a mental breakdown. In order to shut him up, he had no choice but to put on his hat.
The ck baseball cap covered half of Jing Zhis face, giving him a unique aura.
Why do you look so much like an assassin in the movies when you wear this hat? Jin Xin clicked his tongue in praise. It was too cool! I have good taste!
Jing Zhi suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Jin Xin. Seeing that Jin Xin seemed to have only said those words casually and hadnt seen through his identity, Jing Zhi looked away and continued walking.
Jin Xin didnt notice the cold look in Jing Zhis eyes. He was still immersed in his admiration for himself, wondering if he could help Jing Zhi get a small role in the assassin industry. With such a unique temperament, it would be a pity if Jing Zhi didnt y the role.
As the night grew darker, Jin Xin shamelessly asked for Jing Zhis phone number before reluctantly parting with him.
Jing Zhi carried the 20000 Yuan and waited untilte at night before he sneaked into the Zheng familys Vi and went to Zheng yuluos bedroom.
It was quiet in the bedroom. The moonlight shone through the window on Zheng yuluos beautiful face, and her even breathing was clear in the middle of the night.
Jing Zhi leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, watching her quietly.
She was so close to him, but he could not touch her. There were so many obstacles between them. Even if he could persuade his brother, the Zheng family would not agree to Zheng yuluo marrying him.
Moreover, he was not sure about Zheng yuluos feelings for him. He had no confidence in himself.
Jing Zhi felt that Zheng Yu would probably choose her family over him if she didnt get chosen.
Jing Zhi suddenlyughed at himself. He couldnt even afford to support himself now, and Zheng yuluo was going to live on air with him?
He gently ced the paper bag beside Zheng yuluos pillow, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead. Then, he jumped out of the window and quickly disappeared into the night.
Zheng yuluo dreamed of Jing Zhi kissing her forehead. When she woke up in the morning, she saw the paper bag beside her pillow and the 20000 Yuan inside. She immediately sat up.
She touched her forehead in shock.Jing Zhi had been herest night. Maybe the kiss wasnt a dream.

Chapter 1270: What if we seed?

Han Feng stood beside Jing Rui and reported Jing Zhis whereabouts to him.
Shoot a magazine cover?
Jing Rui frowned and waved his hand.Dont worry about him for now, just continue to keep an eye on him,
Yes, Han Feng replied, but he felt a little emotional in his heart.
His boss didnt seem to care about Jing zhimo, but he was still worried about him. He hadnt really left him alone.
Jing Rui had never thought of cutting off his rtionship with Jing Zhi. He had just been annoyed by Jing Zhi and wanted to force him to grow up.
Knowing that he had a manager and was ready to enter the entertainment industry, Jing Rui was still worried, but he wanted to let Jing Zhi try it out first.
No matter what he did, Jing Rui would always clean up the mess for him.
It would be great if they seeded, but if they failed, Jing Zhi would gain a lot of life experience.
There was a mediapany under Jingsheng enterprise and they had trained many stars. But it was very difficult for an actor to grow up. Thepetition in this industry was fierce and there was a lot to pay.
Fortunately, Jing Zhi was a man, so he was safer than a girl. He was strong himself, and if a woman tried to force herself on him, she would probably be crippled. If Jing Xi wanted to enter the entertainment industry, Jing Rui would never agree.
The sky was bright. Jing Zhi had no idea that his brother was still paying attention to him. Hey on the sofa in the living room and sighed.
This was because the 20000 Yuan He earned had all been given to Zheng yuluo. He was still penniless, and even eating was a problem.
His phone had been ringing many times, but Jing Zhi was hesitating whether he should answer it or not.
His phone had been shut down because of thete payment, but now it could be connected again, and it was Jin Xin who called. Obviously, he had helped to top up the call fee.
Jing Zhi wasnt interested in being a star. If it werent for the fact that he could make a lot of money, he wouldnt have allowed those people to do all sorts of weird poses.
Hey down from morning to noon, and then from noon to night. He finished thest orange, but he was still starving.
Only eating fruits would not be able to satisfy his bodys needs. He had to eat meat to have enough strength and maintain his best condition.
Although he wouldnt die if he didnt eat or drink for a week, he was hungry! He was so hungry that every cell in his body was screaming. He was so hungry that he could eat an entire cow!
His phone had run out of battery from Jin Xins calls, but Jing Zhi didnt bother to charge it. He justy there and put the peeled orange on the coffee table into his mouth.
He had not eaten orange peel for a long time because Jing Rui forbade him from eating it. It tasted bitter.
Jing Zhi wanted to p himself in the face when he thought of his brothers kindness. What was wrong with him? why did he have to argue with his brother?
Even if the whole world didnt want him anymore, his brother had never abandoned him!
Jin Xin climbed the wall and window with great effort to get into Jing Zhis house. He saw Jing Zhi lying on the sofa, eating a pile of orange peel pitifully.
He widened his eyes in shock,no way, my little ancestor, youre so poor that youre eating dirt? Didnt I just give you twenty thousand yesterday? Where did the flowers go?
Can orange peel be chewed and eaten like this?
This was too difficult!
Even dogs dont eat this!
How did you find my address? Jing Zhi askedzily. Who allowed you to climb over the wall? Go back to where you came from. If you climb walls again, dont even think about getting your legs.
Do you think I want to climb walls?!
Jin Xin was furious. Seeing Jing Zhi lying there with no motivation, he said resentfully,
If I didnt do it for you, would I have broken thew? Look at what youve done to yourself. You spent 20000 Yuan on new clothes yesterday and now youve turned them into this! Youre covered in orange juice and all wrinkled up, as if you were picked up from the trash!
Jing Zhi didnt seem to care.Youll throw away the clothes you bought after wearing them once. Whats there to be sad about?
Jin Xin almost vomited blood in anger.
He didnt even have the heart to buy clothes that cost 20000 Yuan. He had spent almost all the 50000 Yuan He earned yesterday on Jing Zhi. He didnt take a single cent from Jing Zhi, but Jing Zhi had turned his back on him.
However, Jin Xin wasnt stupid. He looked around the vi and saw that, although it wasnt very big, it was luxurious and exquisite. Even the sofa and coffee table were imported.
He finally realized that the clothes Jing Zhi had worn before were not counterfeits. They were real.
When he climbed over the wall just now, he even saw a Porsche parked in the courtyard. This was obviously a rich second generation!
You live in a vi, drive a sports car, and wear branded clothes. Why cant you even afford underwear? why do you have to eat orange peel sote at night? Jin Xin asked in bewilderment.
Jing Zhis fragile self-esteem was hit hard by her words. He jumped up from the sofa and said sternly,Who said I cant afford underwear? Should I take off my pants and show you what Im wearing?
Jin Xin was startled by Jing Zhis movement and voice. After hearing what Jing Zhi said, he nced at Jing Zhis lower body and said calmly,Sure, take it off. Ill see if you have enough money. Maybe you can find a rich woman to support you, and you wont have to eat orange peel anymore!
Kept as a mistress?
Jing Zhi was so angry that he couldnt even say a word.
A rich womans mistress? He still wanted to earn a lot of money to support Zheng yuluo!
He was a man, if he was kept by an old woman, he would be disgusted to death! Jin Xin hade to disgust him on purpose!
Youre so ugly, no one would want you even if you wanted to be a mistress! Whats wrong with orange peel? its rich in many vitamins and is good for the body! I grew up eating orange peel, do you have a problem with that?
Jin Xin wasnt ugly, but of course, he wasnt handsome, either. Otherwise, he wouldnt have been a manager, but a star!
He didnt care about Jing Zhis sarcasm at all. He only told Jing Zhi that he grew up eating orange peel and didnt care about it.
Only a ghost would believe that you can grow this tall by eating orange peel!
Jin Xin sat down on the sofa, crossed his legs, and began to tempt Jing Zhi. Dont tell me youre nning to keep eating orange peel in the future? How about I bring you to eat and drink? Yesterday, he had earned 20000 Yuan by shooting the photos for half an hour. If he were to film a TV show or a movie, he would earn even more! In the future, you can eat whatever you want, and keep as many women as you want!
Jing Zhi had actually been thinking about it for a whole day.
He was not good at anything other than his face. Perhaps he could really test the waters in the entertainment industry.
Even if he failed, wouldnt he not lose anything?
What if he seeded?
If he really became a star and could support himself, his brother would be proud of him, right?

When Jing Zhi truly wanted to do something, he would take it seriously.
He was actually not afraid of suffering. Had he not suffered enough when he was young?
Jin Xin had a lot of resources, and Jing Zhi had a unique appearance. In that one month, he took up advertisements, shows, and even all kinds of fashion shows without any rest.
Jing Zhi had no experience, and his acting skills were unpolished. He was also unprofessional when it came to fashion shows, so Jin Xin had hired various teachers to guide him.
The magazine he had shot at Qin Zhendongs had already sold like crazy in A city!
Qin Zhendong immediately raised the price by ten times and asked Jing Zhi to bid for it.
Furthermore, it was printed overnight and was put on sale the next day. In the end, the 2000 copies of the first print were sold out in just a few hours!
Qin Zhendong grabbed Jin Xins hand and refused to let go.Brother Jin, dont be in such a hurry to leave. Ill treat you and Jing Zhi to the best restaurant in the city tonight! I didnt mind that Jing Zhi wasnt famous at all, and I even changed the cover actor. Now its time for you to repay me!
Jin Xin didnt buy it at all.Forget it. If it werent for the fact that Jing Zhis looks were a hundred times better than that celebrity s, would you have wanted him? he said. And he only gave 50000, get lost! Ive already paid you back by getting Jing Zhi to shoot the cover for you!
Jing Zhis poprity had been rising rapidly. Although the small roles he had yed hadnt been aired yet, he had shot a mens wear advertisement and shocked the entire fashion world!
Even some big brands in Europe and America had extended an olive branch to Jing Zhi.
Many brands in Europe and the United States did not care if the model had enough poprity. They only cared if the model was good enough!
Going to Paris for a show could quickly increase ones poprity, but a model with perfect conditions was too rare.
Jin Xin hadnt slept much in a month. His beard was unkempt, and his hair and clothes were in a mess, but he had never been so energetic before!
He had good taste. Jing Zhi was like a diamond that hadnt been polished yet.
Jing Zhi sat on the chair next to them and listened to their argument. He flipped through the magazine he was working on but didnt say anything.
In fact, he hadnt had much rest in the past month, but he had a special physique. He was still in good spirits and his body was clean and neat. He had begun to exude a kind of star-like style and dazzling brilliance.
He had originally thought that Jin Xin was just a swindler, but after a months time with him, he realized that this man was truly talented and had a lot of connections. He had a lot of resources in his hands, but he had no suitable neers to use.
So Jing Zhi left all the contract negotiations to Jin Xin and didnt ask about it.
He had already experienced the benefits of entering the entertainment industry. Glory, fame, benefits, status, it was an unprecedented rise!
Although he was exhausted and had to deal with a lot of people and things, Jing Zhi endured it.
He was more and more eager to prove himself. He wanted to give his brother a surprise!
He had earned more than a million Yuan in just one month. Jing Zhi was very happy. He didnt waste the money. He saved it all.
Jing Zhi had never been thrifty when he was spending Jing Ruis money.
Now that he knew how hard it was to earn money, he finally stopped wasting it.
Time flew by unknowingly.
The cold winter passed quickly, and the warm spring arrived. Everything recovered, and flowers bloomed. A city was full of vitality.
Zheng yuluo had not seen Jing Zhi for almost half a year.
Oh, no, she actually saw him quite often, but not in person, but in the advertisements, magazines, movies, TV shows, and even fashion shows he shot.
Even when she went shopping, she could see huge posters of him in the mall.
He was everywhere, but he had never appeared in Zheng yuluos life again.
In a big-budget historical drama released by a famous director during the spring Festival, the male and female leads didnt be popr. Instead, the male supporting role, Jing Zhi, who yed the heartless killer, became popr.
In the movie, he was highly skilled in martial arts, but he had once been hurt by love and no longer believed in love.
He was handsome and had an outstanding temperament in ancient costume. His character was cold and ruthless. He was a top killer. He appeared with a strong momentum and ended in a tragic way. He was the biggest highlight of the movie.
He became famous overnight and attracted tens of millions of fans. He received a lot of advertisements, and with an absolute advantage, he overwhelmed a group of old actors who had been famous for a long time and entered Hollywood.
He had be the most dazzling new Star in the entertainment industry!
Zheng yuluo was wearing a long white dress, standing quietly in the crowd.
They were at the airport, and the crazy fans had found out Jing Zhis schedule. They knew that he would take this flight back to A city after the fashion show in Paris.
The ne would arrive at 9:30 A. M., But when Zheng yuluo arrived at 8:00 A. M., The ce was already surrounded by fans.
She even heard a girl next to her unt to another girl,Im a true fan. Ive been waiting here since five in the morning. Otherwise, I wouldnt have been able to take the front seat. If Im blocked by the people in front, I wont be able to see our Wuli Shuai Zhi!
Some girls wereining that the paparazzi and reporters had arrived earlier than them. They had even started camping herest night and had taken the best seats.
Zheng yuluo was silent. Jing Zhi was more popr and popr than she had imagined.
There were many beautiful and young girls among his fans. They held up signs that said Jing Zhi, I love you and waited patiently and excitedly for the ne tond and Jing Zhi to appear.
She should be happy that Jing Zhi was popr.
However, Zheng yuluo couldnt be happy when she saw so many girls confessing to Jing Zhi like crazy.
Once, Xiao Ling could make her break down. Now that so many girls were so crazy about Jing Zhi, Zheng yuluo didnt know what to do.
She even suspected that Jing Zhi had already forgotten about her after not seeing her for so long.
The entertainment industry was full of beautiful women. Although Jing Zhi didnt have any scandals with any female star, Zheng yuluo felt a sense of panic. She was afraid that Jing Zhi would fall in love with someone else.
The ne was a littlete, and Jing Zhi didnt walk out of the exit until 10 O clock.
He didnt take the special passageway, but walked straight to the fans.
He was apanied by two assistants, a man and a woman, and a thin middle-aged man, his manager, Jin Xin.
He was wearing a ck baseball cap and a simple dark gray casual outfit. He waved at the crowd slightly, and the fans burst out screaming.I love you, Jing Zhi!

Chapter 1272: I cant afford to love
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo looked at the center of the crowd.
He was still so tall and straight. Even the simplest clothes could not hide his perfect figure. His cold and unique temperament was just like how he used to look when he stood in front of her.
The cap covered half of his face, but one could still see his good-looking chin, high nose, and fair skin.
There was no expression on his face. Even when the fans confessed to him, he only nodded slightly, signaling everyone to be quiet and not disturb the order of the airport.
The fans listened to him and lowered their voices, but there were still many people who wanted to ask for his autograph.
His two assistants and manager both blocked it for him.
One of the girls who didnt manage to get his signature cried out in anxiety. She tried her best to squeeze forward, but someone identally tripped her and she fell in front of Jing Zhi.
Everyone, including Zheng yuluo, thought that the girl had embarrassed herself.
But Jing Zhi, who was usually cold and didnt like to interact with his fans, bent down and helped the girl up.
Are you alright?
The girl was shocked!
Her idol helped her up personally?
Did her idol care about her and talk to her?
His idol was even more handsome than he looked in the magazines, and his voice was a hundred times better than in the movies!
She was so shocked and excited that she lost the ability to speak!
She had clearly injured her knee and blood was still gushing out, but she could not feel any pain at all!
The cameras shed like crazy, and the reporters and paparazzi swarmed forward, asking Jing Zhi all kinds of questions.
Jing Zhi let go of the girls hand and continued to walk forward calmly without answering any questions.
Zheng yuluo looked at him from afar. She felt like she was separated from Jing Zhi by thousands of mountains and rivers. Everything that had happened in the past was like a dream!
He was so dazzling, so perfect that even the blinding sh could not take away the brilliance around him!
Was he going to disappear from her life from now on?
Zheng yuluo watched the girl who was being helped up by Jing Zhi cry. She was envious and jealous.
He wondered who the girl Jing Zhi would help up in the future would be.
He didnt even look at her until Jing Zhi disappeared.
Zheng yuluo knew that she was at the edge of the crowd, so it was normal that Jing Zhi couldnt see her.
But she just wanted Jing Zhineng to look at her, even if it was just a look.
He was too popr and famous, and she could not afford to love him anymore.
Jing Zhi walked out of the airport with his head lowered. He got into a Mercedes-Benz van that hade to pick him up. His two assistants and Jin Xin followed him.
Jing Zhi nced at Jin Xin and said,The acting skills of the extras are not bad.
Jin Xin was taken aback, but he quickly forced a smile and said,Little ancestor, our extra hasnt gone on stage yet! That girl really fell, it wasnt an act!
In order to improve Jing Zhis image and make him closer to his fans, Jin Xin had found someone to put on a scene of him falling to the ground.
Who knew that before the actors could do it, the fans would take over the actors jobs!
Is that person a real fan?
Jing Zhi was a little suspicious. He knew that he was very popr now, but he couldnt help but feel that it was a little unreal.
What did those girls like about him?
She just liked his handsome face and the character he created.
If they knew that he had a deadly virus in his body, if they knew that he had once killed people like flies, if they knew that he had once been locked in a room as a test subject and had his blood drawn repeatedly for experiments, would they still like him?
Over the past few months, he had slowly changed his image ording to Jin Xins request. He had been filming day and night, catching up on jobs, flying all over the world, and no matter what difficult scenes he was filming, he didnt need a substitute.
He was very, very tired and had no personal space at all. Everything about him was exposed to the media and fans.
However, he finally had money.
He didnt need to spend his brothers money anymore, and his life was full. He didnt have to do nothing anymore, and he didnt have to worry about not being able to afford the woman he liked in the future.
Jing Zhi didnt think much of himself, but Jin Xin felt that this neer he had discovered was perfect!
He looked at Jing Zhis handsome face and said proudly,Of course its your true fan. Youre very famous now, and everyone likes young hunks. Youre the fighter among them!
Jing Zhis expression was calm. He wasnt smug or bothered.
His two assistants, on the other hand, were as proud of Jing Zhi as Jin Xin, his agent. Especially the female assistant, Lian Xiaoli, who was so infatuated with Jing Zhi that she couldnt stop herself from falling for him.
Jing Zhi originally only had one assistant, but Xiaoli had pestered Jin Xin for a whole month, insisting on being Jing Zhis assistant for free. Jin Xin didnt agree at first, but he let her stay when he found out that Xiaoli was fluent in sixnguages.
Even Xiaoli came from a well-off family and was very cute. She had a round face and two shallow dimples. It was rare that she was willing to suffer silently for Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi didnt want to bring a female assistant, but he couldnt find any fault with Xiaoli. She was hardworking, cute, sweet-tongued, always smiling, and didnt even ask for a sry. Where else could he find an assistant like her?
And Xiaoli wouldnt get jealous just because a fan confessed to Jing Zhi. She wanted every girl in the world to like Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhis n to help his female fan up today had been arranged beforehand, but it had be a reality. She was overjoyed.
There are more and more people who like our Shuai Zhi! Haha, the effect today was much better than acting. It was so real! The girl was so touched that she couldnt even speak! Shuai Zhi, you should help your fans out more in the future, they really love you!
Jin bro, do you think our Shuai Zhi will be on Weibos headlines tomorrow?
Thats for sure!Jin Xin smiled.
Some of the paparazzi and reporters at the airport had gone on their own ord, while some had been hired by him!
The money wasnt for nothing. It was to increase Jing Zhis exposure and poprity.
This kind of approach had long been an open secret in the entertainment industry. What Airport Street shots, airport idental falls, airport passionate kisses, most of them were deliberately hyped up!
In order to be popr, some female celebrities have all three points.| Whats the big deal about filming a movie or an Airport Street scene!
Jin Xin was an expert at creating hype, and he had many other ways of doing so, except for not using Jing Zhis love life.
Jing Zhi was actually very concerned about the headlines on Weibo and the news, because he thought that his brother would only notice him if he was the first on the news.
Therefore, when Jin Xin proposed the n for the airport, he agreed without hesitation.
His news and advertisements were everywhere, so it would be hard for her brother not to see him, right?

Chapter 1273: Fangirl Jing Xi

When they returned to A city, Jin Xin gave Jing Zhi a day off so that he could get some rest. His two assistants were also given the day off, because Jing Zhi would have to start filming the day after tomorrow, and he wouldnt have any rest time then.
Jing Zhi was indeed exhausted. He went home and fell asleep without even taking off his clothes or lunch.
Jing Zhi slept until evening. He felt an itch on his face. He opened his eyes abruptly and saw a pretty little face in front of him.
Jing Xi took a feather away and said with a smile,Handsome second brother, youre awake! Hurry, hurry, get up and give me your signature. Ill show it off to my ssmates!
Jing Zhi had not seen Jing Xi for half a year. She had grown a little taller and seemed to be more beautiful. Her bald head had grown into soft and smooth short hair. She was wearing an aqua blue dress, which made her look innocent and full of spirit.
Jing Zhi suspected that he was dreaming. Did his brother allow Xixi to see him?
Second brother, are you stupid?
Jing Xi pouted unhappily when Jing Zhi ignored her.Hmph, do you not want me anymore now that youre famous? Im telling you, no way! Get up quickly and give me your autograph!
Other than his mischievous and adorable cousin, who else would dare to speak to him like this now?
Even his manager, Jin Xin, called him ancestor, so how could he dare to order him to sign?
Jing Zhi suddenly burst intoughter. He held Jing Xi in his arms and lifted her over his head.Haha, Xixi, youve finallye to see me! Is our brother not angry anymore?
What are you doing? Jing Xi smacked him hard. Put me down, Im a big girl now. My mother said that I cant be so close to boys! Im very reserved!
Jing Zhi was in a good mood when he saw the pistachios. He hugged Jing Xi tightly and said,Im your second brother, not a boy. Of course, you have to stay away from other boys, so that you wont be fooled by their sweet words!
Jing Xi didnt think about it for long. She hadnt seen her second brother for a long time and missed him very much. She forgot about Shangguan nings words and wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis neck.
Second brother, youre so cool! Youre my idol now! When I grow up, Ill marry you, okay?
Jing Zhi was pleased with the first half of the sentence, but he stumbled when he heard thest part. He almost threw his sister out of his arms.
Who would dare to marry this girl who could kill at any moment?
She was still reserved a second ago, but in the next second, she was so unreserved!
Fortunately, Jing Zhi knew Jing Xi too well. She always wanted to marry any handsome man she saw, and after a few days, she would marry someone else.
He patted Jing Xis head and said,Were brother and sister, we cant get married. So, youd better go and harm others! Dont you like that Lou Ziling? He even saved you before, you can consider him!
Fortunately, they were cousins and were rted by blood! Otherwise, he really didnt know how to reject the young woman. Otherwise, it would be no joke if she took revenge on him!
Who is Lou Ziling? Jing Xi asked, blinking her big eyes.
This person sounded a little familiar, but Jing Xi couldnt care less about others at this time. She was a fan of her second brother!
Its okay, we can get married without having children!She said happily. I heard that giving birth is very painful. I dont need to feel pain anymore!
Jing Zhis face darkened.Dont talk nonsense. Im your second brother. I dont care if you have a baby or not. How old are you? I wont give you an autograph if you continue to spout nonsense!
Jing Xi thought for a moment. Second brother would always be her second brother even if they didnt get married. He couldnt run away. And if her brother knew that she was going to marry her second brother, he would probably spank her butt until it bloomed!
His signature was more important!
Fine, I wont marry you, but you have to give me an autograph and take pictures with me!
Jing Zhi wiped the sweat from his forehead and promised,Sign, sign, sign! Theres no problem taking photos!
But when Jing Zhi saw the thick stack of posters on the table in the living room, he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
You want to sign all of them?
Of course! What, you want to go back on your word? If you go back on your word, Ill marry you!
No, no, no, I didn t! That How many are there in total?
Oh, not many. Im nning to give one to everyone in the school. There are only about 7000 people in the school! Look at how hard your younger sister is working to help you gain poprity! Youll gain more than 7000 fans in an instant!
More than seven thousand!
Jing Zhi felt that he wouldnt be able to finish signing the papers even if he didnt sleep or eat.
Could he not have these fans?
I remember that there were only about 2000 students in your primary school. When did it increase to 7000?
Aiya, second brother, dont you know that I skipped a grade? My principal praised me as a genius and rmended me to a middle school. I jumped four grades in a row! I cant help it, your sister is smart and cute. Ive won the hearts of both elementary and middle school students!
Little sister, I, your second brother, have also been convinced by you, do you know that?
Jing Zhi wanted to cry. He had been hoping that the girl woulde to see him, but when she did, he couldnt wait to send her away.
Lou Ziling, why are you so useless? cant you charm Jing Xi for a while longer?
After an hour of hard work, Jing Zhi had only signed two hundred posters.
Second brother, youre signing too slowly. If this goes on, when will you finish signing?
Second brother, why dont I imitate your handwriting and help you sign?
Second brother, can you call your assistant over to sign the papers together?
Second brother, why dont we call our brother over to help us sign?
Jing Zhi rubbed his sore arms, but he was more concerned about Jing Ruis attitude towards him.Has our brother forgiven me? Otherwise, why would he let youe?
Jing Xi rolled her eyes at him. I sneaked here, big brother said he doesnt want you anymore!
Impossible!
Jing Zhi felt that it was unreasonable. He was so popr and could make so much money. Jing Rui should be proud of him and forget about what happened before.
Didnt you just say that youd get our brother toe over and sign for you?
Im just saying it casually, and you believe that?
Jing Xis eyes widened.I thought youd be more thoughtful after working in the entertainment industry for a few months. It turns out that youre still so innocent!
Jing Zhi was a little disappointed,then what should we do? I said the wrong thing and I know Im in the wrong. I didnt contact Zheng yuluo again. Ive done what I could!
Aiya, just go and hug our brothers leg and cry. Hell be fine once his heart turns soft! Anyway, youre an actor now. It shouldnt be difficult to act out a crying scene, right? You must cry your heart out!
But I cant even see him!
Dont worry, you have me as your spy! If you help me sign these 7000 posters, Ill help you meet our brother!
Jing Zhi gritted his teeth and agreed. But I have a request, I want to pay in installments!
Jing Xi also knew that it was impossible to sign so many at once. She said generously,Give me a thousand first, then Ill take you to our brother!

Chapter 1274: Cold man
Trantor: 549690339
It would take a long time to sign a thousand posters, and Jing Xi couldnt stay outside for too long. It was getting dark, so she had to go home.
Although Jing Zhi could not see Jing Rui immediately, he was in a good mood.
He would be able to meet his brother eventually. He didnt believe that his brother would ignore him forever.
It was good enough to see the little girl.
In the past few months, he had only gone to North America once and stayed with his parents for a few days. He had not seen anyone else and had been very busy.
The night was quiet, but Jing Zhi couldnt fall asleep.
He was ying with a sapphire ne in his hand. After a while, he put the ne back into an exquisite dark gold box and left with the box.
A few months had passed, and he had not seen Zheng yuluo. He did not know if Zheng yuluo had forgotten about him.
There had always been a lot of boys pursuing her in school. After not seeing each other for a long time, she might have fallen in love with another handsome man.
If it had been in the past, Jing Zhi would have been so angry that he wanted to kill someone when he thought that Zheng yuluo was in a rtionship with someone else.
But now, he could actually look at this matter calmly and rationally. If someone could rece him in loving Zheng yuluo in the future, he would not beat people up without distinguishing between right and wrong.
Zheng Jing was right. He was too dangerous. Even his blood was lethal. He was not a good match.
Now that his exposure was so high, he was afraid that he would not be able to protect Zheng yuluo. If she wanted to be with him, her life would be exposed on the inte without any reservation.
Jing Zhi sneaked into Zheng yuluos bedroom and ced the ne beside her pillow. He turned around and was about to leave.
However, his back was suddenly hugged by someone, and his entire body froze there.
Jing Zhi, dont go!
Jing Zhi was silent for a while before he spoke,Did I wake you up?
No, Ive been waiting for you!
Zheng yuluo hugged Jing Zhis waist from behind. She felt like she was in a dream, but she didnt want to let go no matter if it was a dream or reality.
Jing Zhi couldnt even turn around because she was holding him so tightly.
You knew that I was back today? Otherwise, why would she be waiting for him?
Zheng yuluos face was pressed against Jing Zhis back. His body trembled slightly when he spoke. The tremor went straight into Zheng yuluos heart and gave her a real sense of satisfaction.
I know. I waited for you at the airport with your fans for a long time today, but you didnt look at me.
There was a hint of resentment in her tone, like a little girl who was acting coquettishly with her boyfriend.
Jing Zhi didnt expect Zheng yuluo to be at the airport today. There were too many people at the airport, but he didnt look at any other girls except for the fan who fell.
Dont wait next time. The ne can be dyed sometimes, and I cant talk to you at the airport.
Zheng yuluo did not say a word. She did not know if she would wait for him at the airport again, but she understood that if they met outside, they could only treat each other as strangers and not say a word.
With Jing Zhis current status, if there were any scandals between them, it would have a negative impact on him. He would lose a lot of crazy female fans.
Most of the celebrities rtionships and marriages were done in secret. Very few of them took the initiative to expose themselves. Most of them had to be dug up by the paparazzi and reporters before they had to admit it.
Zheng yuluo didnt know if she was Jing Zhis girlfriend now. They didnt look like a couple at all, or maybe they had never been a couple.
Zheng yuluo felt terrible in her heart. Jing Zhi had long been integrated into her life, and now they were gradually drifting apart. Even if they stayed together, she didnt know what to talk about.
They were familiar with each others bodies, but their souls were extremely strange to each other.
She didnt understand Jing Zhis heart and didnt know what he wanted. Jing Zhi didnt understand her heart and didnt know what she wanted either.
Jing Zhi slowly removed Zheng yuluos hand from his waist and said softly,Go to sleep, Im leaving. If theres a good boy pursuing you, you can try it out with someone else. Im not a good person, so maybe I really dont suit you.
What did you just say?
Zheng Yus tears fell like rain. In the past, Jing Zhi would get mad at her whenever she was a little close to Lou Ziyi. Now he was encouraging her to date someone else!
You can tell me what you like and Ill give it to you. I have money now.
Jing Zhi jumped out of the window and disappeared into the night.
Zheng yuluos hand fell. She looked at the empty room and sat there in a daze.
Her tears kept flowing out, blurring her vision and drowning the trace of hope in her heart.
She cried the entire night, and her eyes were so swollen that even ice wouldnt work.
The morning sun seeped through the window and shone on Zheng yuluos pale face. She opened the box beside the pillow, and a ne came into view.
The silver-white tinum and the blue gemstones reflected each other, showing a dazzling brilliance under the sun.
The ne was gorgeous and magnificent, but it also made Zheng yuluo feel sad.
Her phone rang with a ding, indicating that she had a new message.
Zheng yuluo turned on her phone in a daze, and a push notification for entertainment news headlines popped up.
The title was,cold man Jing Zhi, inadvertently heartwarming.
Below the headline was a high-definition photo of Jing Zhi, who was wearing a ck baseball cap, gently helping a female fan who had fallen to her feet. The female fan looked at him with undisguised admiration and adoration.
Zheng yuluos heart was torn apart in an instant!
She couldnt remember if Jing Zhi had ever been so gentle to her, but she knew that from now on, Jing Zhi would never be so gentle to her again.
She had be a passer-by in his life, and his future was limitless. In his life, there would be more perfect and outstanding women!
They would eat and chat together, watch sunrise and sunset together, sleep in each others arms, and do the most intimate thing she had ever done with Jing Zhi.
She could not ept this!
Zheng yuluo wiped her tears haphazardly, tidied her hair, put on her clothes haphazardly, and ran down to the second floor in a hurry. She walked out of her house.
Zheng Jing called her from behind, but she turned a deaf ear to him. She hailed a taxi and left.
There was no one in Jing Zhis Vi, and he had never been to Jing Ruis house. Zheng yuluo searched all the ces that Jing Zhi could have been, but she could not find him.
Zheng yuluo suddenly reacted. He was a celebrity now, so he could not go to ordinary ces. Otherwise, he would definitely be surrounded by many fans.
She turned on her phone and searched for him on the inte.
The power of fans was strong. Zheng yuluo soon found out that Jing Zhi might be shooting a new movie somewhere. She went to the well-known film base in A city, Gaoyan Film City.
Chapter 1275
Chapter 1275: Cant fall in love
Trantor: 549690339
The scale of Gao Yans film studio was not small. Many films and TV dramas were filmed here. Walking in the film studio, one could always inadvertently see celebrities that could only be seen on TV.
As soon as Jing Zhi appeared, some fans recognized him and posted his information on the inte. That was how Zheng yuluo managed to find out Jing Zhis exact location.
When Zheng yuluo found Jing Zhi, the sky was already dark.
However, outsiders were not allowed to enter the crew when they were filming. Zheng yuluo bought a bottle of water and stood outside to wait.
She hadnt eaten all day. Although she was hungry, she didnt have any appetite.
Zheng yuluo wasnt waiting outside alone. She was surrounded by Jing Zhis fans. They were so excited that they didnt even have time to eat. They were waiting for Jing Zhi to finish his shoot ande out to see him.
Jing Zhi didnt pay much attention to the fans outside at first, since he was used to being surrounded by people. Usually, after filming, Jin Xin would arrange for him to meet with the fans for a short time, take photos with them, and sign autographs.
He could promote the new drama and increase its poprity. He could also satisfy the fans love and not let those who really liked Jing Zhi wait for so long.
However, when Jing Zhi looked out of the studio during his filming, he saw Zheng yuluo in the crowd, her face pale.
She was in a terrible state and looked a little dazed!
Jing Zhis heart ached. He whispered to his assistant, Lian Xiaoli, to take Zheng yuluo to the RV he was resting in.
Xiaoli Lian didnt know what was going on, but she still followed Jing Zhis instructions and took Zheng yuluo to Jing Zhis RV.
Zheng yuluo didnt have to wait long before Jing Zhi came in a hurry.
He was filming a historical drama. He wore a wig, a moon-white long shirt, a pair of exquisitely-made long boots, and a paper fan in his hand. He looked like an ancient noble young master who had walked out of a painting. He had an imposing appearance and was elegant and charming.
Seeing Jing Zhi like this, Zheng yuluo realized that she hadntbed her hair, washed her face, and even her clothes were from yesterday!
She was in such a sorry state, but Jing Zhi was radiant in front of her. There was not a single w on his body. He was so perfect that it made her feel ashamed of herself.
Jing Zhi, I
Zheng yuluo didnt know what to say. She was afraid that Jing Zhi would reject her if she told him, and then there would be no room for negotiation.
Jing Zhi did not think that Zheng yuluo was in a sorry state. He reached out his well-defined hand and touched Zheng yuluos forehead.What are you doing here? Running around with a fever? Hurry to the hospital!
Do you have a fever?
Zheng yuluo didnt feel anything wrong with her body at all. All her thoughts were on Jing Zhi.
She didnt want to go to the hospital at all. She couldnt ept Jing Zhi falling in love with someone else.
Zheng yuluo threw herself into Jing Zhis arms and cried,Why do you suddenly want me to date someone else? Cant I be in love with you?
Jing Zhis body stiffened.Youve never had a good time with me, he said softly.Every time we meet, something happens. Youll be cursed.
He couldnt stand Zheng yuluos tears the most. Every time she cried, he always felt particrly worried.
Zheng yuluo cried most of the time when she was with Jing Zhi. She rarely smiled. Jing Zhi didnt want her to cry for the rest of her life.
Im not afraid of anything happening, nor am I afraid of being scolded. Im just afraid that I wont be able to see you again!
Jing Zhi stroked Zheng yuluos messy hair. Just as he was about to speak, the door of the RV was suddenly opened.
Jin Xin almost vomited blood when he saw the two of them hugging each other.
He quickly got into the car with a frightened Lian Xiaoli and closed the door with a bang.
My ancestor, are you trying to take my life? What did I say? you cant fall in love, you cant fall in love! Are you trying to destroy the image that weve worked so hard to build?
Jin Xin was so angry that even his voice changed, but he didnt dare to curse loudly in case he attracted the attention of reporters and paparazzi.
Youre being watched by thousands of eyes right now. If youre not careful, youll be doomed forever! Which was more important, a woman or a career? Do you think that without your current Halo and status, those female fans will still throw themselves into your arms?
As he spoke, he stared at Zheng yuluo with an unfriendly look, as if he was going to stare a hole in her face with his gaze.
Jing Zhi stood in front of Zheng yuluo and said,I know what Im doing. Shes different from the others. Dont scare her.
Jin Xin didnt feel that Zheng yuluo was different at all. In his opinion, anyone who was willing to sacrifice their life to hook up with the young hunks that he had personally raised was exactly the same as those coquettish B * tches outside!
He was so angry that his heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney were all in pain.If the two of you are photographed today, tomorrows headlines will be all about the two of you! The dramas and advertisements weve epted are all going to fly. Our partners have already said that the premise of acting and endorsements is that you cant fall in love!
Although Jing Zhis career was rising quickly, his Foundation was still unstable. He still needed a long time to let everyone know his true strength, so that his fans could slowly ept his love.
He was an idol, and if he fell in love so quickly, his image would immediately fall to the bottom!
Jin Xin didnt dare to scold Jing Zhi too harshly. What if his temper red up and he insisted on announcing that he was in love?
He red at Lian Xiaoli with knife-like eyes,You wretched girl, I asked you to follow Jing Zhi because I thought you were smart, calm, and loyal to him, but you pushed him into the fire pit like this? Do you want the entire crew to know that hes having an affair with a woman? If hes finished, were all finished!
Even Xiaoli only felt that something was wrong after she took Zheng yuluo to the RV, so she quickly called Jin Xin.
When she saw Jing Zhi holding Zheng yuluo in his arms, she had actually felt very sad. Jing Zhi used to treat all his fans equally, so even Xiaoli didnt feel any injustice. She felt that she was already very happy to be able to stay by Jing Zhis side.
Today, Jing Zhi had obviously broken the norm of not touching women. He had held a delicate girl in his arms, and it broke Xiaolis heart!
Now that she was being scolded by Jin Xin again, she felt so aggrieved that she couldnt stop crying.
Jin Xin was used to seeing womens tears in the entertainment industry, so he didnt give in to Lian Xiaoli,You still have the face to cry? You dont need toe back as an assistant from tomorrow onwards. Go home and be the young miss of the Lian family! With an assistant like you, Jing Zhi wont be popr for long!
This was an unexpected disaster for Lian Xiaoli. Jing Zhi said coldly,It has nothing to do with Xiaoli. I asked her to bring people here. Why are you getting angry at her?
Jin Xins expression also turned cold.An assistant should have her duties as an assistant. Her most important task is to stop you when you make a mistake, not to help you make a mistake!
He opened the car door again and got out. Without looking back, he said,
Youre my hearts blood and youre more like my child. We still have a long way to go. If you really love each other, why would you be afraid of a short separation? If not, then we should separate as soon as possible!

Jin Xin had never spoken to Jing Zhi in such a tone before. He always called Jing Zhi ancestor and treated him as if he was his ancestor. He wouldntin even if he was beaten or scolded. As long as Jing Zhi was willing to be a star and make him his only manager, he would be willing to be Jing Zhis grandson.
His tone today was unyielding because Jing Zhi had crossed the line.
Jing Zhis career had just started, and if he revealed his rtionship now, he would be back to square one.
All the resources Jin Xin had gathered for Jing Zhi had been wasted.
Zheng yuluo didnt know Jin Xin, but she had already guessed that he was Jing Zhis manager.
Seeing Jing Zhi and his assistant being scolded, Zheng yuluo felt uneasy. She looked at Jing Zhi guiltily and said in a low voice,Im sorry, I shouldnt havee to you.
Jing Zhi saw that Zheng yuluo was like a frightened little rabbit, panicking and uneasy. He couldnt help but reach out to hold her shoulder andfort her,
Its okay, dont listen to his threats. Even if our rtionship is exposed, it wont have much of an impact. But it wont do you any good if its exposed. Your life will be disturbed by the media, and Im afraid you wont be able to take it.
Zheng yuluo didnt have much of a reaction to his words, but Lian Xiaoli, who was sitting in the RV, was shocked.
She didnt expect Jing Zhi to already have a girlfriend at the young age of neen.
She had originally thought that they were just ordinary friends!
They didnt look like they had just started dating. She had been by Jing Zhis side almost 24 hours a day for the past few months, so she knew all the people Jing Zhi had met.
Lian Xiaoli was sure that the two of them had known each other for a long time!
Her heart was broken, and she felt even worse than when Jin Xin had scolded her. She ran out of the RV, crying, and refused to see the two of them hugging each other and torturing the dog.
Whats wrong with her?Zheng yuluo was at a loss.
We made him cry, Jing Zhi said calmly.
Of course, he knew that Lian Xiaoli liked him, but there were so many people who liked him. He couldnt be afraid to hug the woman he liked just because someone else liked him, right?
Jing Zhi reached out to touch Zheng yuluos forehead, then lowered his head and kissed her. He said,Stop messing around. Why arent you wearing the sapphire ne I gave you? Dont like it? Forget it, Ill buy you more in the future. Youre running a high fever now, so you should go to the hospital first!
His gentle tone, doting eyes, and caring actions made Zheng yuluo feel like she was in a dream!
She reached out to touch Jing Zhis handsome face. The warmth of his skin felt so real.
Tears rolled down Zheng yuluos face as she sobbed,Jing Zhi, I want to be with you! Dont abandon me, dont push me to someone else, I cant fall in love with anyone else!
Jing Zhi wiped Zheng yuluos tears with his wide sleeve, not caring that the production team had paid a high price to custom-make him a costume.
Dont cry. I didnt abandon you.
Jing Zhi pinched Zheng yuluos chin and forced her to look up. He said solemnly,Im just afraid that youll be wronged if you follow me. Most of the time were together, youre just crying. I rarely see you smile, do you know that?
Zheng yuluo immediately shook her head.No, no. Im not aggrieved! I wont cry in the future. Illugh in the future!
Jing Zhi stroked her long hair and said, Im not asking you to force a smile. Cant I feel if youre happy or not? I think its because Ive always done something wrong and made you sad. Thats why you keep crying!
He liked Zheng yuluo. Would he be happy to push the person he liked into someone elses arms?
Perhaps they were still too young. After a few years, they would understand what true love was and learn how to manage love.
Zheng yuluo wanted to say that she would be happy as long as she was with Jing Zhi, but when she thought about it carefully, she did cry most of the time when they were together.
She would cry when she was happy, and she would also cry when she was sad.
She didnt know why she was crying so much. Her sister Zheng Yuwei rarely cried, and she had never seen Shuyin cry before.
But she didnt know how to change. She wanted to be stronger, but she couldnt control her tears.
Alright, you can go back first. Ill be very busy during this period of time. Ille find you when Im done.
The filming was still going on and Jing Zhi was the main character. He had a lot of scenes to y. The director would be worried and the manager would be angry if they couldnt find him.
Jing Zhi didnt want to give up his career so easily.
Jing Zhi didnt know what else he could do if he stopped being an actor. He didnt want to be a failure and be supported by his brother. He didnt want Zheng yuluo to look down on him.
At the very least, he now had a very bright appearance and the ability to make money. He could be an idol that Zheng yuluo admired.
Jing Zhi sent his driver to take Zheng yuluo to the hospital, and he returned to the studio to continue filming.
However, the front of his shirt had been wet by Zheng yuluos tears. It was very obvious.
The director frowned and immediately asked Jing Zhi to change into another set of clothes. Then he started cursing at Jing Zhi.
As a famous director, there were plenty of handsome young men like Jing Zhi who rose to fame because of their looks. He wasnt afraid of them, but if an actor wasnt professional, he would definitely scold him.
If he went on camera in dirty clothes, he would be letting down all the staff who served him and the audience who watched TV.
The director was in a bad mood, so he stopped the shoot. The actors and actresses had no choice but to stop. They allined about Jing Zhi for being too arrogant and unprofessional.
Jin Xin ran over to the director and said a bunch of good things, finally putting an end to the matter.
On the way back to the hotel, Jin Xin was so angry that his hair was about to stand up,Jing Zhi, youre not going to waste all the poprity weve worked so hard to build up, are you? Let me tell you, if you want to be the most popr star, film the best movies, and take on the most expensive advertisements, you have to separate from that woman!
Jing Zhi was not in a good mood. He was still worried about Zheng yuluos physical condition, and he had been scolded by the director today!
His temper wasnt good at all. If Jin Xin hadnt held him back, he might have lost control and hit someone.
I dont need you to tell me what to do with the woman Im with! He said coldly.
He could not ignore Zheng yuluos shaky state today.
That silly girl. If he didnt do anything, she would really just stand there and wait.
Jing Zhi could harden his heart when it came to others, but Zheng yuluo was his weakness.
Im doing this for you! When youve lost everything, youll see which woman will still like you!

Chapter 1277: Rtionship exposed

Jing Zhi ignored Jin Xin. Even when he had nothing, Zheng yuluo had never abandoned him, and had even foolishly given him money to spend.
Zheng yuluo was fundamentally different from those fans.
Back at the hotel, Lian Xiaoli cleaned the dirt off Jing Zhis chest and sleeves with her eyes swollen from crying.
After she was done, she went to her room to pack her things and left silently.
Her admiration for Jing Zhi was crazy, but everything that had happened today had shattered that fanatical heart of hers.
She couldnt ept the fact that she had to wash Jing Zhis clothes from other women. She used to enjoy washing Jing Zhis clothes and would even be happy about it. But today, she felt bitter.
Jin Xin acted quickly. The next morning, he found another assistant for Jing Zhi. She was still a girl, hardworking and capable, but she looked much more ordinary than Xiaoli, and she didnt miss Jing Zhi as much.
The assistants of artists couldnt all be male. Girls were born to be more meticulous and serious, and were better at taking care of their daily lives, so Jin Xin had to find a female assistant for Jing Zhi.
The whole day passed in a busy manner. However, in the evening, Jin Xin was almost driven crazy by a heavy bomb!
Photos of Jing Zhi holding Zheng yuluo in the RV appeared all over the inte. They were in an ambiguous position, and Jing Zhi was kissing Zheng yuluos forehead.
The photo was in high definition, so Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluos faces could be clearly seen.
Jin Xins cell phone was about to explode from all the iing calls!
He could ignore some peoples calls, but he had to answer some, such as the production Director, advertisers, and partners.
Jin Xin was exhausted, and Jing Zhi was silent.
All the information about Zheng yuluo had been dug out, including her parents upations and her twin sister who was studying in the military school.
There were even many crazy fans blocking the entrance of the Zheng familys Vi, so much so that they were obstructing the Zheng familys normal life.
Jing Zhi, the consequences are worse than I thought. Youre young and youre going to be attacked by many people if you fall in love so soon.
Jin Xin couldnt be bothered to scold Jing Zhi anymore. He only wanted to find the best solution to minimize the losses.
There are also a lot of people in the entertainment industry who are jealous of you for getting red too quickly and cant wait for you to fall. This matter has blown up so much, there must be a lot of people behind it. We cant just sit back and wait for death. We have to rify tomorrow that youre not in a rtionship and Zheng yuluo is just an ordinary friend of yours!
Jin Xin thought that Jing Zhi would refuse, but he actually agreed.Alright!
He swallowed all the words of persuasion he had prepared and went to contact the entertainment reporters and the media without asking why Jing Zhi had changed his mind.
Jing Rui immediately knew that his brother and Zheng yuluo had made the headlines. The entertainment industry was full of belittling Jing Zhi. The silver screen image that he had worked so hard to build had copsed.
Shuyin was browsing the news and asked curiously,Did Jing Zhi offend someone? The previousments were all positive. How did they be so bad just because they were in a rtionship? They said that his acting skills are bad, that hes a Big Shot, that he doesnt respect his fans, and theres even news that Jing Zhi seduced his fans and said that Zheng yuluo was forced to do it!
Jing Rui would get angry whenever he heard the name Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhi had clearly said that he would no longer have anything to do with Zheng yuluo, but in the end, he still got involved with her!
The paparazzi were even more powerful than his men. Even his men couldnt get a picture of Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo, but the paparazzi did!
If the paparazzi hadnt caught it, he would have thought that Jing Zhi had really forgotten about Zheng yuluo.
The news is right. Hes ugly, bad at acting, and has a bad temper. For him to be able to be so popr and get so many shows and advertisements, I think his manager is amazing!
Shuyinughed. Jing Rui was obviously angry.
Jing Zhis handsomeness and acting skills were obvious. No one could surpass his aura and eyes as an assassin.
He was acting as himself, and no actor couldpare to him.
Stop scolding him. Quickly help him think of a way to suppress the negative news!
Shuyin wasnt a fan of celebrities, but she liked Jing Zhis on-screen image very much, because Jing Zhi fit every girls fantasy of a male God!
She had watched Jing Zhis movie several times on her tablet, and even Jing Rui had gotten jealous.
He caused the trouble, so he should solve it himself.
Jing Ruis expression was calm. He had no intention of helping Jing Zhi.
If it was something else, he would have helped, but Jing Zhis ident was rted to Zheng yuluo, so Jing Rui did not bother to help.
He had already cleaned up countless messes for Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo, and he would not be soft-hearted anymore.
Jing Rui was not the only one who was angry about what happened between Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo.
The entire Zheng family was shocked by the media exposure!
Not many friends and family knew that Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi were in a rtionship, but many people knew that Zheng yuluo had once tied Jing Zhi up and sent him to human traffickers.
The Zheng family found it unbelievable that these two people could turn hatred into love and expose it in front of everyone!
Everyone thought that the obedient and innocent Zheng yuluo had been deceived by Jing Zhi.
The matter of love was unanimously opposed by everyone. Zheng yuluo was silent, in pain, and depressed.
The matter continued to ferment for two days. On the third day, Jing Zhi spoke through his manager.
He stated that he was only friends with Zheng yuluo. He had only taken care of Zheng yuluo as a friend when she was sick that day.
There was no ambiguous rtionship between the two parties.
People were skeptical, but there was too much news in the entertainment industry. Jing Zhis incident was quickly buried by other things. Those who paid attention to Zheng yuluo also gave up and went to dig up other peoples information.
After reading the news, Zheng Jing closed the web page and went to his daughters room. He said in a stern tone,Yuluo, you cant have anything to do with Jing Zhi anymore! He didnt even admit to your rtionship, he only cares about his future. If you do anything stupid again, Ill send you abroad!
Zheng yuluo turned her head and said softly,Father, hes not that kind of person. Speaking of which, he was implicated by me this time. If I didnt insist on looking for him, he wouldnt have been besieged by so many people.
Stubborn! There are so many good boys in the world, whats so good about Jing Zhi?
There are so many boys in the world, but hes the only one I feel like I owe him.
Is it because you feel guilty, not because you like him? Zheng Jing asked.
Zheng yuluo shook her head and said,no, Im sorry. I also like her. Dad, please dont interfere in my rtionship with Jing Zhi anymore, okay? Im still young, just let me be willful just this once, just this once! I want to be closer to him!

Chapter 1278: Another new assistant
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng Jing looked at his daughter in a daze and felt an indescribable pain in his heart.
His two daughters looked almost exactly the same, and their personalities were simr as well. They were confident, strong, and never felt inferior. They were both proud white swans.
But now, the elder daughter and the second daughter hadpletely different personalities and had be twopletely different people.
He felt like he was going to lose his daughter when he saw how infatuated his daughter was with Jing Zhi.
Luoluo, he is too dangerous. Jing Rui was scratched by him when he was a child and almost lost his life. It took him a few days to save him!
Zheng yuluo retorted,Jing Rui is not dead, is he? Hes living very well, and hes very powerful!
Hes just lucky!
Zheng Jing didnt know how to tell his daughter about what had happened in the past. Children would never understand how much their parents cared about them.
Jing Rui had been in a dangerous situation back then, and the Jing family had been in a solemn and low pressure.
The Jing family had spent a lot to change Jing Ruis blood.
If family MUs Hospital had not stored arge amount of blood that matched Jing Ruis blood type, he would have been dead.
Yuluo, no one else is as lucky as Jing Rui! The Jing family has been keeping Jing Zhis body a secret. I dont know much about it, but I know that his blood is highly toxic and he cant have children. Jing Zhi Hes not a normal person, do you know that?
I know everything, dad, Zheng yuluo said softly. But even if Jing Zhi isnt a human, I still like him. Hes a human, and hes getting better and better.
She knew better than anyone else that Jing Zhi could fall in love and be in close contact with anyone. He was no different from any other person.
It didnt matter if they could have children or not, as long as Jing Zhi was there, it was enough.
No matter what Zheng Jing said, Zheng yuluo refused topromise. Her feelings for Jing Zhi were irreceable.
Unless Jing Zhi no longer loved her and fell in love with someone else. For Jing Zhis happiness, she would quit no matter how much pain she was in.
But Jing Zhi didn t.
They both had each other in their hearts, so why did they have to separate?
Zheng yuluo didnt want to be separated from Jing Zhi again. She could always follow Jing Zhi silently behind his back.
A few dayster, Zheng yuluo went to Jin Xin and asked him to be Jing Zhis assistant.
Jin Xin wanted to refuse, but Zheng yuluo refused to leave. She kept following him, and no matter how much she scolded him, she didnt get angry. She was very observant.
Jin Xin felt that he didnt need to be the bad guy. If Zheng yuluo wanted to be an assistant, Jing Zhi would probably be the first to disagree.
He pushed Zheng yuluo to Jing Zhi,Ive found you a new assistant. Use her as you see fit!
Jing Zhi had been memorizing his lines, but when he saw that the new assistant was Zheng yuluo, he instantly forgot the lines that he had just memorized.
The makeup artists well-trimmed eyebrows furrowed.Dont mess around, hurry up and go home! If someone takes a picture of you, itll be posted on the inte again. By then, all 18 generations of your family will be dug out!
Zheng yuluo heaved a sigh of relief.
She knew that Jing Zhi wasnt trying to distance himself from her for the sake of his future.
He only said that they were just ordinary friends because he didnt want her life to be disturbed.
It doesnt matter if I was photographed this time. Ill be your assistant from now on, so its normal for me to be with you every day. It just so happens that we have a more reasonable exnation for the photos that were taken previously. You can tell the public that Im your assistant and Im helping you rehearse your lines.
Jing Zhi didnt want Zheng yuluo to be his assistant at all. She was his woman, not a subordinate who had to do trivial things.
The assistants of artistes were all tough women, and all the work they had to do was very tiring. Zheng yuluo was so weak that Jing Zhi felt that he should take care of her.
No, you should go home! Ive already exined what happened before. I said youre my friend, but youre now my assistant. Whats this? Im notcking an assistant!
Jing Zhi went to Jin Xin, who was watching the show, with a cold face.What tricks are you ying now? Why did you agree to let her be my assistant?
Jin Xin didnt know Zheng yuluo at first, but a few days ago, Zheng yuluos information was exposed byizens, so he now knew this half-popr inte celebrity very well.
Whats so bad about being a young and pretty free assistant? Arent you two deeply in love? Then Ill give you two a chance to get along, so that you wont give me the cold shoulder all day long.
It was better for him to keep an eye on the two of them than to keep them in contact in private. Jin Xin would rather be an eyesore than let others tell him that the actress he had worked so hard to cultivate had another scandal.
Jing Zhitao was no match for Jin Xin in terms of scheming. He had no idea what Jin Xin was up to this time, but he was determined not to ept Zheng yuluo.
It was not safe for her to stay by his side. She still had to work. What if she was exhausted?
Jing Zhi chased Zheng yuluo out. He had been sleeping in the hotel until midnight when he heard a sound outside the door. When he opened the door, he saw Zheng yuluo sitting in the corridor, sobbing softly!
Jing Zhi walked over and picked her up in his arms. He entered the room and threw her on his bed.
Whats wrong with you? Natural masochist? Youre waiting for me outside in the middle of the night and youre so touched that youre crying?
Zheng yuluo didnt mind Jing Zhis sharp tongue. Jing Zhi used to be much more vicious than he was now, and he was rarely gentle.
She wiped away her tears, got out of bed, wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis waist, and snuggled into his arms. Ive run away from home. If you dont take me in, I have nowhere to go. I dont have any friends in A city, youre the only one I have.
Jing Zhi was silent for a long time, but he did not push Zheng yuluo away.
Stop it, lets go home! Im too busy right now and dont have the time and energy to take care of you.
I dont need you to take care of me. Ill take care of you!
Youre afraid that Ill fall for another woman?
I Am!
Zheng yuluo had wanted to deny it, but on second thought, she admitted it.
She was afraid that Jing Zhi would forget her and fall in love with someone else.
It was rare for the woman in his arms to be so honest, so Jing Zhis mood finally improved. He carried Zheng yuluo to the bed again, covered her with the quilt, and whispered,Its toote. Lets sleep here first. Well talk about tomorrows matters tomorrow.
Jing Zhi got up and walked out.
Zheng yuluo looked at his tall and handsome back and asked him in a low voice,Then, will you fall for another woman?
Jing Zhi paused for a moment, then continued walking.
I won t,
Jing Zhi had already gone to another room, but Zheng yuluo was jumping in bed alone.
He said he wouldn t!
She had made the right decision toe here today. Otherwise, she would never have heard Jing Zhi say this.
But why didnt he sleep with her?
In the past, he was always demanding, but now he didnt want to touch her. Had her charm declined?

In any case, Zheng yuluo felt that she was finally closer to Jing Zhi. She got up early the next day to prepare Jing Zhis clothes and prepare breakfast for him.
Jing Zhis other two assistants were dumbfounded. They didnt know why their jobs were taken away by a pretty girl.
After Jin Xins introduction, they found out that this slim girl was also Jing Zhis assistant, and that she was the kind of person who worked for free!
The two of them had a deep sense of crisis, and they were even more serious and hardworking than before.
Jing Zhi felt a little ufortable when he saw Zheng yuluo fighting to do the work, carrying the tes and wiping the table without even minding it.
He did not want Zheng yuluo to do these things.
Her hands were so soft and delicate that they would soon be rough if she did rough work.
He had always wanted to have his own career and wealth. He had reasons to prove himself to his brother, but the most important reason was that he wanted to give Zheng yuluo a carefree life.
He didnt want Zheng yuluo to look down on him, and he didnt want her to be embarrassed with him.
But now, how was Zheng yuluo carefree?
She was almost bing a nanny!
Jing Zhi grabbed Zheng yuluos arm and pulled her into the bedroom, ignoring Jin Xins murderous gaze and the two assistants shock.
Zheng yuluo, go home immediately! Go back to your University and donte here again!
Zheng yuluo didnt know what she had done wrong. Jing Zhi was in a good mood when he got up in the morning. Why did he change his face after breakfast?
Did I do anything wrong? Tell me and Ill change!
Its not good anywhere! Who asked you toe here and mess around? Dont you see that I have two assistants? Youre not qualified, hurry up and leave!
What I did was no less than the two of them, so where did I fail? If you dont tell me the details, I wont leave! If other people can be your assistant, I can too!
Jing Zhi had never known that Zheng yuluo could be so stubborn.
She used to be so obedient!
If she was told to go east, she would never go west. If she was told to shut up, she would definitely not dare to say another word!
Had she been spoiled by him now? Or was she not afraid of him at all?
Jing Zhi closed his eyes and suppressed his anger.Others are others, you are you. I cant stand seeing you do those messy things. It annoys me.
What kind of nonsense did I do?
Zheng yuluo had thought that Jing Zhi would be grateful to her for taking care of him, but things turned out differently.
Im doing the most normal things. Even without me, someone else will do it, so why cant I do it? I just want to stay by your side, is it that hard?
Zheng yuluos eyes quickly turned red. She tried her best not to cry, but her tears did not listen to her. They fought to fall.
Jing Zhi was even more annoyed when he saw her cry.
As he had said, Zheng yuluo would always cry every time they were together!
Dont cry! What problem can crying solve? You cry every day, are you trying to make yourself blind!
I wont cry if you dont chase me away!
No, you must leave!
No matter what, Jing Zhi didnt want Zheng yuluo to be his assistant anymore. They were still in the hotel, and he couldnt stand it when everyone was his own.
Jing Zhi would not be able to control his anger if someone else ordered Zheng yuluo to do this and that and used her as a real assistant. He would beat the person up!
He could bully Zheng yuluo, but if anyone else touched a single strand of her hair, they would have to pay a heavy price!
Zheng yuluo couldnt argue with Jing Zhi, so she could only settle for second best.Ill follow you for three days. If you still want to chase me away after three days, Ill leave, okay?
She hugged Jing Zhis arm and begged him with her beautiful little face.
Jing Zhi couldnt stand this kind of Zheng yuluo.
Every time she looked at him pitifully, Jing Zhi would be defeated and his heart would soften.
He could not help but lower his head, hold Zheng yuluos waist, and bite her red and tender lips.
The kiss came a little too suddenly. They were still arguing a moment ago, and the next moment, she was kissed. Zheng yuluo could not react in time.
Jing Zhi hadnt had enough yet when Jin Xin knocked on the door.Are you two done? Hurry up ande out! Zheng yuluo, will you be responsible if Jing Zhi is scolded by the director for beingte?
Zheng yuluo didnt want Jing Zhi to be scolded the most, and she didnt want him to be scolded because of her.
Her face was as red as an Apple. She pushed Jing Zhi away. Lets go, were going to bete!
Jing Zhi didnt leave at all. He pressed Zheng yuluo against the wall again, lowered his head, and kissed her again.
Zheng yuluo wanted to push him away, but she couldnt do it at all. She could only be tightly wrapped by him and demanded.
Jin Xins hair had turned white from waiting outside. In the end, he pushed the door open and entered, risking being beaten to death by Jing Zhi.
Fortunately, they didnt lock the door when they came in, or he would have smashed it!
Stop kissing. Did you not kiss enoughst night? Wheres your self-control, Jing Zhi? you werent this thirsty when you were shooting sex scenes with Qi Xiaowu!
Qi Xiaowu was a well-known sexy goddess. She was beautiful and had a hot body. She was the dream girl of countless otakus.| Naked, Jing Zhi was only wearing a thin shirt, but he didnt have any reaction at all.
It was to the extent that the people present at the time were a little suspicious of his ability.
Jin Xin didnt understand what Jing Zhi liked about Zheng yuluo. There were many in the entertainment industry who were prettier and had better figures than her. Jing Zhi was so handsome that he could have any woman he wanted.
Zheng yuluo was shy, so she pushed Jing Zhi away when Jin Xin ran into her.
But Jing Zhi didnt move. He pressed her against the wall and kissed her gently on her eyes and brows, as if Jin Xin didnt exist.
Zheng yuluo was embarrassed and scolded in a low voice,Jing Zhi, let me go!
Jing Zhi let go of Jin Xins hand in dissatisfaction, turned around, and walked toward Jin Xin. He grabbed his cor with one hand and dragged him out.
Jin, Im being intimate with my woman. The next time you dare toe in, Ill make you a Yin! Also, youre not allowed to mention my acting with other women in front of her!
Jin Xin was on the verge of tears!
He finally knew what it meant to shoot himself in the foot. He should have sent Zheng yuluo away and not let her see Jing Zhi!
When Jing Zhi was with her, he lost all his fighting spirit. He didnt even care about filming anymore.
The entire crew was waiting for him, the male lead, and he was actually here flirting with a woman?
Femme fatale!
Little ancestor, Im begging you, okay? Hurry up and go to the set, the Assistant Director has already made three calls! If you really cant bear to part with your woman, then bring her to the set! Maybe the director will give her a cameo role because shes pretty!

A guest?
Jing Zhi looked at Zheng yuluos face and thought that it was possible.
But why did he ask Zheng yuluo to go with him?
Firstly, he was not short of money, and secondly, he did not need Zheng yuluos help to increase his poprity. The waters of the entertainment industry were bottomless, and it was too difficult for a girl to make a living in it.
For example, Qi Xiaowu, who had an outstanding appearance and a hot body, was not a flirtatious person. She had to take off her clothes to make herself morepetitive and stand out.
Her style of dressing in private waspletely different from what she wore on screen.
Jing Zhi had never shot a kissing scene before. Even if there was a need, he would shoot it with a borrowed position. Although the bed scene with Qi Xiaowu was erotic, the requirement for their roles at the time was to kill each other, so there was no ambiguous rtionship.
He could not ept Zheng yuluo filming intimate scenes with someone else.
So, after Jin Xins advice, Jing Zhi was even more determined to stop Zheng yuluo from following him.
He left Zheng yuluo in the hotel and went to the film set with Jin Xin.
Jing Zhi wasnt in a good state today. He had made a few mistakes in his lines and his expressions and actions werent right.
Jin Xin was so angry that smoke wasing out of his head,my dear ancestor, cant you work harder? With such a distracted look, are you afraid that others wont know that youre hiding a woman in your hotel? Just tell everyone that shes your assistant. As long as you dont hug and kiss her in front of everyone, you wont be exposed!
Ill have to agree to any assistant you find for me in the future,Jing Zhi said calmly. Also, I wont allow you to have any ideas about Zheng yuluo.
Although shes not an absolute beauty, she has a good foundation, a gentle temperament, and a pitiful look. She should be able to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry. You really dont want to let her try?
Jin Xin had been in the entertainment industry for so many years and had seen too many beautiful women, so when he saw Zheng yuluo, he did not think she was that amazing. Otherwise, he would not have let go of such a good seedling.
He had taken a fancy to Li Jing before, but the Li family had a big business and Li Jing didnt need to work in the entertainment industry.
Dont touch her, or youll regret it!
Jing Zhis tone was cold and stern. Jin Xin hurriedly said, Dont worry, I wont bring her into this circle without your permission! Having you as my ancestor is already enough for me. If theres another one, how am I going to live?
Jing Zhi knew that Jin Xin was a man of his word, and he only rxed after hearing his promise.
However, while Jing Zhi had put out Jin Xins me, Zheng yuluo had an idea.
If Jing Zhi didnt want her to be his assistant, then she could still be an actress. She could still act with Jing Zhi in future.
Moreover, she was smart enough not to find Jin Xin to be her manager, but to find another managementpany.
It was alreadyte at night when Jing Zhi finished filming. He returned to the hotel and found that Zheng yuluo had already left.
He didnt think too much about it. He thought that Zheng yuluo was too bored staying alone in the hotel and had gone home or back to school.
Zheng yuluos appearance was not bad. She was also young, and although she had no acting experience, she was very suitable for training.
Not all celebrities were professionally trained. Many of them became a star halfway through their career.
As long as she wasnt a block of wood and had a pretty face, she would be able to make a name for herself very quickly with the help of her managementpany.
Zheng yuluo had been sent to the School of Performing Arts by her managementpany for further studies and had begun professional training and cultivation.
Jing Zhi was so busy that he did not pay much attention to what Zheng yuluo was doing. He only found time to look for Jing Rui, but he still did not see him.
It was not that Jing Rui did not want to see Jing Zhi, but that he was very busy. More importantly, he had already found clues about Zishan by following Liao Wei and getting close to him.
Zishans father, Andrew, was still in Jing Ruis hands, and the killer organization was also in his hands. He did not believe that Zishan would keep quiet.
ording to Zishans strong character, she would use all means to get back everything she had lost.
In an elegant vi, the air was filled with a strong fragrance. The light was a little dim, but Liao Wei could still see the exquisite and enchanting figure standing by the window.
With the growth of age and the deepening of experience, the devastatingly beautiful Zishan now had a soul-stirring charm with every move.
It was the end of spring and the beginning of summer. It was neither hot nor cold, just warm enough.
Zishan was wearing a thin white chiffon dress. Her long hair fell over her shoulders, and she had the fragrance of someone who had just taken a bath. This made Liao Wei, who had no resistance to women, want to pounce on her and tear her clothes apart.
He had been tortured by Zishan many times, but he always forgot the pain after the scar healed. He had fantasized about Zishan many times in his heart.
Liao Wei also realized that every time Zishan saw him, she would deliberately show off her beauty and dress very sexily, as if she wanted to prove her charm.
Liao Wei looked at her slender and straight thighs, as well as her vaguely visible plump upper body, and secretly cursed her in his heart,coquettish Fox.
She deserved Jing Ruis disdain for her. She was just a mans ything because of her flirtatious appearance.
Whoever married her would be cuckolded!
Liao Wei had seen Zishan too many times and knew how to please her.
He didnt hide his greedy eyes and scanned Zi Shans body from top to bottom. He said in an ambiguous tone,Zishan, youre so beautiful, why didnt you turn on the lights? Wouldnt it be a pity to bury such a good figure? Ive been dreaming of you many times these days!
Liao Weis tone was flirtatious, but he had copied Jing Ruis voice.
He knew that Zishan had failed to get what she wanted from Jing Rui, and she was so obsessed with Jing Rui that she wanted to get into his arms.
Zishan had kept him and indulged him because he had the same voice and handsome face as Jing Rui.
As long as he didnt touch Zishan, it didnt matter how flirtatious or explicit his words were.
However, Liao Wei had miscalcted today.
As soon as he got close to Zishan, he was kicked away by her.
Liao Wei fell to the floor with a loud bang. He cried out in pain and felt that all the bones in his body were about to break!
Inside the purple-robed womans alluring body, there was always a frightening power that could burst out. She knew where the human body was the weakest, and she also knew how to kick people to make them suffer without putting their lives in danger.
She slowly walked to Liao Weis side and stood in front of him.
Liao Wei was so frightened that he could not care less about the pain in his body and desperately shrank back.
From where he was, he could see Zishans underwear as soon as he looked up. Even if the room was dimly lit, he could see that her mysterious area was only a thinyer of fabric.
However, Liao Wei did not have any lecherous thoughts at this moment. He did not know what was wrong with Zishan this time!
Chapter 1281
Chapter 1281: Try a few more times
Trantor: 549690339
Zi Shan stepped on Liao Weis chest with her bare feet. The moment she exerted force, Liao Wei immediately screamed in pain.
Liao Wei was better off dead. He felt that even if Jing Rui did not do anything, he would not live long under Zishans hands.
Jing Rui wanted to kill him immediately.
However, women were always more vicious than men, and Zishan did not let him die. She always tortured him slowly, slowly making him copse and go crazy!
What did I do wrong? Zishan, you tell me, Ill change it! Please dont kill me, Im going to die!
Zishan loathed Liao Weisck of backbone.
He had Jing Ruis face, but his personality waspletely different.
Jing Rui was such an outstanding man. He would never beg for mercy from a woman, even if he had to die.
Liao, youd better not cause me any trouble! Jing Rui has already found me through you. If theres a next time, theres no need for you to be alive!
Impossible! Ive been very careful and no one noticed!
Liao Wei thought that he had hidden it well. He had used Jing Ruis name to y with many rich girls. Those girls had fun under him at night, but were as pure as ice and Jade during the day. No one had ever publicized that they had slept together.
As far as he knew, none of the girls knew Jing Rui, and Jing Rui should not have known those secrets.
Idiot! Zishan coldly said. If Jing Rui was so easy to fool, I wouldnt have to spend so much effort on him! Take care of your lower body and donte looking for me anymore!
Liao Wei was not angry when he was called an idiot, but when Zishan told him not to look for her, Liao Wei gritted his teeth in anger.
She was the one who was unwilling to be lonely and often called him over to seduce him but did not allow him to touch her. Now, she was saying it as if he had thickened his skin and insisted oning!
He could only look at her, but not eat her. Every time Liao Wei came to see Zishan, he would always be stifled to death. How could it bepared to having sex with those rich youngdies in person?
Liao Wei was beaten half to death. He dragged his injured body out of Zishans Vi, wanting to kill Zishan for the 10000th time.
But Zi Shan was too strong for him to fight against. It would be best if he could let Jing Rui and Zi Shan fight each other, and he could benefit from it.
Liao Wei spat out a mouthful of blood, and a sinister look shed in his eyes.
Wasnt Zishan afraid of being exposed?
Then he would help Jing Rui!
Liao Weis betrayal allowed Jing Rui to get more clear clues about Zishan.
He was now sure that Zishan was in city A!
After dinner, Jing Rui held Shuyins hand and took a walk in the quiet Park.
Zishan had tried to take Shuyins life a few times in the past, and he was a little worried now. Most of the time, he let Shuyin stay with him, which made Shuyinugh at him for being more clingy.
Shuyin leaned her head on Jing Ruis shoulder and walked slowly. She was still concerned about Jing Ruis health, not knowing that danger wasing.
Youve been staying up toote recently. Your body wont be able to take it if you continue like this. Can you sleep earlier in the future? If you cant finish your work, I can help you with some less important ones.
Jing Rui sat her down on a chair in the park and put an arm around her shoulder. He said with a smile,Are youining that I didnt satisfy you tonight? Youre being so tactful, I almost misunderstood!
Shuyin was so angry that she turned around and bit his shoulder. She was being serious, but why did she change her mind when it came to Jing Rui?
Jing Rui was in a good mood after being bitten. He kissed Shuyins forehead and said softly,Yinyin, although there arent many people in this Park, there are still people. If you want it, we can talk about it at home. I dont think we can do it here, right?
Shuyins face instantly turned red, but she bit harder.
Be good, dont bite me. I want you the moment you bite me.
Why are you still biting? Baby, dont tell me youre really thinking of doing it here?
Alright, alright, Ill satisfy you. Come and sit on me. Youre wearing a dress, so no one can see you doing bad things.
Shu Yin had no choice but to give in.
She raised her head and looked at Jing Rui in anger.Dont talk nonsense outside!
Yes, provided you dont tease me.
Who was teasing who?
Shuyin wanted to bite again!
Seeing Shuyins cute pouting face, Jing Rui smiled and ruffled her hair.Didnt you want to experiment with having children with me? If you dont try a few more times, how do you know if you can give birth?
Shuyins attention was quickly diverted at the mention of having children.
She didnt want to have a baby now, but she wanted to know Jing Ruis health condition.
If he was infertile like Jing Zhi, she would have to focus on this problem from now on.
Seeing how cute and smart Jing Xi was, Shuyin also wanted a pretty and smart daughter in the future.
Also, if Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were both infertile, the Jing family would have no offspring.
Jing Xi was going to get married in the future, and her children would usually follow the mans surname, so the possibility of inheriting the Jing familys hundreds of billions of assets was very small.
Shuyin felt that Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning had too few children. They were so close to each other that they should have more.
What she didnt know was that even though Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning were close, they had not had a smooth pregnancy.
Besides, Jing Yichen felt that having a son was enough. He didnt want Shangguan ning to suffer the pain of having more children. Even Jing Xi was born because Jing Rui had gone to North America and Shangguan ning missed her son so much that Jing Yichen agreed to have another one to keep herpany.
Shuyin had no idea about the pain of childbirth. She was very enthusiastic about it, but Jing Ruis situation was not optimistic.
My professional knowledge is still not strong enough. Otherwise, the virus in your body would have been cured.
Shuyin was a little upset. She had always been confident in her profession, but if she couldnt even cure the person she loved the most, what was the use of learning more?
Jing Rui patted her head and said with a smile,Youre already very strong. Some medical problems are worldwide and no one can solve them. You cant belittle yourself just because of this.
Other things aside, the most famous HIV was a global problem. Once the virus broke out, the human immune system would copse.
Jing Rui felt that the virus in his body was a good thing. It was good in all other aspects except for fertility.
Shuyin suddenly stood up and pulled Jing Rui away.
Whats wrong?
Lets go home!
Why? Jing Rui was confused.
Shuyins face was a little red, but she still said,Ill try it at home. Also I need to take some samples for research.
Fortunately, Shuyin was his woman. Jing Rui would not be able to ept it if someone else wanted to take a sample for research.
Even so, his face was still a little dark.
Youre not allowed to study anyone elses except mine!
Shuyin finallyughed, I think Ive studied countless samples in the Research Institute before and even cultivated many embryos!
Chapter 1282
Chapter 1282: We meet again
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui knew that Shuyin had studied various samples before.
The Virus Research Institutes research on Human Gics was at the worlds leading level. They had collected countless samples from all over the world and done a massive amount of data analysis.
Everyone from the Research Institute knew how to cultivate embryos.
This was Shuyins profession. Although Jing Rui said that he did not allow her to study it, he actually supported her career.
Shuyin didnt have to do the sample extraction herself. She usually got cells that couldnt be seen by the naked eye. When she did research, she had to be fully armed with rubber gloves, protective clothing, protective masks, and so on.
Jing Rui pinched Shuyins fair face and hurried home with her hand in his.
It was rare for his fiance to take the initiative to ask for a certain sport, so of course he had to satisfy her.
Jing Rui was not in a hurry to have a child. Shuyin was still young and could wait for a few years.
At that time, there might be a new method.
However, since Shuyin wanted to research it, then he would let her do it. Every time she researched it, wouldnt he have one more benefit?
The night was full of passion, and Shuyin was not as strong as Jing Rui, who had been transformed by the virus. She leaned against Jing Ruis body and did not even bother to move her fingers.
But Jing Rui was not satisfied. He wrapped Shuyin in the bedsheet and carried her into the bathroom.
Shuyin had been tormented too much, as if she was constantly floating in the clouds. How could she remember the matter of taking a sample?
When she got up the next morning, Shuyin couldnt help but feel annoyed.Its all your fault. You wasted a chance.
Jing Rui smiled.If you want it, lets do it again. You are not allowed to beg for mercy!
Several parts of Shuyins body were aching, so she didnt dare to do it again!
She pushed Jing Rui out of the bedroom and urged him to go to work. Then she climbed into bed and continued to sleep.
She didnt have any sses in the morning, so she could sleep happily until the sun was high in the sky.
Jing Rui finished his breakfast and went out in the cold wind.
Jingsheng enterprise had set their eyes on a piece ofnd in B city and wanted to take it down for development.
Thend had been bought at a low price many years ago and was now waiting to be sold. Jing Rui had arranged to meet the buyer. As long as the price was not too high, Jingsheng enterprise would be able to afford it.
However, when he arrived at the ce and entered the luxurious private room that he had booked in advance, he found that there was a familiar person sitting inside-Li Jing.
Li Jings beautiful eyes lit up when she saw Jing Rui.
After not seeing him for a while, he seemed to have be more and moreposed!
Because today was a semi-formal business meeting, he was wearing a dark blue suit, a pair of trousers of the same color, ck leather shoes with excellent texture, and a grey striped shirt that he rarely wore. It exuded a different kind of nobility and elegance.
He stood tall and straight, with an excellent figure. His facial features were handsome and deep, and his eyes were as calm as an ancient well. It was as if even the copse of heaven and earth could not cause his emotions to fluctuate at all.
At the age of 21, he was in the prime of his life and had a calm temperament. He was like a polished gem that was blooming with a bright and dazzling light, inadvertently stirring peoples hearts.
Li Jing stood up and smiled at Jing Rui.We meet again. It seems that even the heavens cant bear to see you hiding from me!
A beautiful girl, whether she was crying orughing, pretending to be cute or showing off her charm, was beautiful.
Especially since Li Jing and Shuyin were sisters, and they looked a little simr. When Li Jing spoke, she looked like Shuyin sitting on Jing Ruisp and acting coquettishly.
Jing Rui stared at Li Jing coldly, but he could not find any trace of awkwardness on her face. It was as if she was born to speak like this.
Jing Rui sat down on the red leather sofa in the private room and said calmly,You have added scenes for yourself. Even if the whole world revolves around you, it will not include family Jing or me.
Hiding from Li Jing?
No, he was just ignoring her.
Li Jing sat down opposite Jing Rui. She did not mind his coldness at all. She was used to Jing Ruis coldness anyway. If Jing Rui suddenly became warm to her, she would wonder if he had been switched.
Her face was still full of smiles, and her voice was even more clear and melodious,My sister hasnt been home for a long time. My mother has been thinking about her. Why dont you let her go?
Miss Li, perhaps youre not very smart. Let me remind you that Im here today to transfer the right to use thend, not to chat with you!
Jing Rui had been loved by many people since he was a child.
However, not a single one of them dared to chat with him so openly!
The words Im not to be trifled with were written on his cold face. Ordinary girls would be scared away by his powerful aura and would not have the courage to be ambiguous with him.
Once or twice, Jing Rui might not think much of it, but after a few more times, he saw through Li Jings true thoughts.
This woman had taken a fancy to him!
She kept on testing him and bringing up Shuyin. She wanted to cover up her true intentions and also wanted to see what his rtionship with Shuyin was like. She wanted to see if she could take advantage of it.
She was as scheming as the sea, brilliant in her methods, and had so many tricks up her sleeves. Jing Rui thought of Shuyins straightforwardness and felt that even ten of her were not enough in front of Li Jing.
Fortunately, he wasnt interested in Li Jing, otherwise she would have seeded.
Jing Rui had always respected people who were capable. A girl should not be so ignorant and self-motivated. He admired Li Jing for her courage and acting skills.
Li Jing would never have done something like this if she had even a shred of shame. He was a man who pretended to care about his sister but was actually coveting her sisters man in secret.
If it were not for the fact that this piece ofnd was so important to Jingsheng enterprise in taking over the real estate market of City B, Jing Rui would have left.
Li Jing was never worried that Jing Rui would see through her. She felt that only her family, looks, and assets were worthy of Jing Zhi.
Shuyin was pretty, but could she help Jing Rui in his career?
A woman couldnt just be a pretty vase. She also needed to be capable. Otherwise, how could she tie a man to her forever?
If Jing Rui married her, it would be very easy to transfer thend today. Jing Rui only needed to say a word and arge piece ofnd would be transferred to Jingsheng enterprise at a low price.
What did Shuyin know?
Virus?
Hehe, a useless professional skill.
Jing Rui, you are my sisters fianc. Cant I talk to you? Or is it that you dont like my sister anymore, so you dont like me as well?
Chapter 1283
Chapter 1283: Old acquaintance
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui felt that talking to Li Jing was a form of torture.
She was constantly testing and scheming.
Jing Rui had always thought that he was a calctive man, butpared to Li Jing, his schemes were nothing but open schemes.
Name your price. Jingsheng enterprise is determined to get this piece ofnd. No one else will have the courage to buy it except me.
Jing Rui only cared about her and did not care about what she was thinking.
What did what happened between him and Shuyin have to do with Li Jing? This womans reach was simply too long!
I dont intend to sell thend to anyone else. Its best to sell it to my family. Li Zhi smiled charmingly. You and I are both very clear about B citys administrative nning. This ce will soon be the new administrative center, and the price of houses will rise sharply. The profit margin is immeasurable.
Jing Rui had never treated Li Jing as family, and Shuyin had never called her sister. He coldly said,The price!
How about this? my mom misses my sister so much. Let Yinyin go home and spend some time with her. Ill sell it to you at a low price. Is it worth it?
Low price? Jing Rui sneered. Jingsheng enterprise is short of everything except money!
He couldnt even stop Shuyin in time, so how could he persuade her to see Jiang Manshu?
Jiang Manshu had incited Shuyin to kill him and avenge Shu Chengshan countless times.
How much did Jing Rui hate her for him to push Shuyin to Jiang Manshu?
Ive already made such a big concession, youre not going to make any concession at all, are you? Jingsheng enterprise doesntck money, but does my family?
Li Jing stood up elegantly. The rose-red dress wrapped around her exquisite figure. Her waist was slender, and her legs were straight and long.
She poured two sses of red wine and handed one to Jing Rui. She said gently,Lets have a drink. Youre here to talk about cooperation today. The environment here is not bad. Lets talk slowly.
Jing Rui did not take the ss, as he rarely ate or drank outside.
Firstly, he was a clean freak and always felt that the things outside were not clean. He would not even touch this kind of public wine ss.
Secondly, he had been an assassin for so long and had many taboos. Who knew if the wine in the ss would not kill him?
It was impossible for Jiang Manshu to only encourage Shuyin to kill him. It was very likely that she would also encourage Li Zhi to kill him.
Jing Rui did not take the ss, and Li Jing did not force him. She took a sip of her own ss, put the two sses on the table, and began to take off her clothes.
It was easy to take off her suit. In a short while, Li Jing was only left with her underwear.
Her skin was as fair as snow, and it glowed with a lustrous luster. Her body was extremely well-proportioned, without a trace of fat. She was as beautiful as a perfect art piece that was man-made.
Rui, do I look good? Do you want to continue taking off your clothes?
Jing Rui looked at her from head to toe and suddenly said,Ive always felt that youre a little familiar, and this sense of familiarity is the strongest today. Li Jing, weve met before, right?
Li Jings body was perfect without any ws.
But Jing Ruis intuition told him that it was fake.
It wasnt that he had never seen a woman whose body was close to perfection. Other people aside, Shuyin was one of the best.
But even Shuyin had light-colored scars on her body.
Li Jing didnt have any from head to toe, which was definitely abnormal.
The scars on her body must have been treated.
You also think that weve met before?
Li Jings delicate face showed a surprised smile.I also feel that weve met before! The first time I saw you, I felt that you were very familiar!
She walked to Jing Ruis sofa and sat down next to him shyly.
Ive been looking for you for a long time. Recently, I finally know why I find you familiar. We met once in United Kingdom nine years ago.
Li Jings strong perfume surrounded Jing Rui, but he still sat there calmly and did not move away from Li Jing.
Jing Rui did not remember meeting Li Jing nine years ago. He would not remember unimportant people.
Li Jing moved closer to Jing Rui and said softly,You were so cruel back then. I was almost killed, but you didnt care about me and even kicked me. It hurt so much that I almost fainted. Later, you even wanted to kill me like those bad guys!
Nine years ago, Jing Rui had joined the killer organization to save Jing Zhi.
Before that, he had indeed stayed in United Kingdom for a period of time to learn all kinds of noble etiquette.
Li Jings words reminded Jing Rui of a memory that had been sealed for a long time.
A little girl who was being chased fell in front of him. He wanted to ignore her, but because the little girl said that he was her brother, he was blocked by the pursuers.
She wanted to use him to buy her time to escape.
He was only twelve years old back then, and Jing Zhis disappearance had put him in a terrible mood. He had been used as a stepping stone, and he had wanted to kill the girl in a fit of anger.
If it wasnt for the powerful reinforcements from the girls side, she definitely wouldnt have lived to this day.
So its you!
Jing Rui recalled a scene that he had almost forgotten. The Li Jing in front of him looked very simr to the little girl from nine years ago.
Do you remember?
Li Jing seemed so happy that she almost threw herself on Jing Rui.
I thought you didnt remember! Dont you think were fated to meet?
No, Im just a little regretful that I didnt kill you back then.
Jing Rui kicked Li Jing to the wall as soon as he finished speaking.
Li Jing screamed, feeling as if her ribs and back were about to break.
She did not expect Jing Rui to hit her so easily. They were old acquaintances. Did this not work on him at all?
Jing Zhi walked up to Li Zhi, who was almost naked, and looked down at her.So the person who made me a scapegoat back then, the person who wanted me to die in your ce, is right in front of me! Its my mistake to let you live for so many more years!
If it was anyone else, a twelve-year-old child, they would have died without a burial ce!
If his body hadnt been modified by the virus and if he hadnt received strict physical training since he was young, he would have been killed by Li Zhi!
In order to survive, she had deliberately let the pursuers mistakenly think that he was her brother, leading the pursuers eyes to all fall on him!
Li Jing was the first person who had dared to use him like this and still lived until now!
A leopard cant change its spots. Nine years ago, Li Jing had kicked him out as a scapegoat without any hesitation. Nine yearster, she would only be more vicious than before!
Chapter 1284
Chapter 1284: Who bullied you?
Trantor: 549690339
Li Jing had always been very confident in her body and appearance. She had experimented countless times. Even if there were men who were not tempted by her face, as long as they saw her almost perfect body, they would definitely be tempted.
But in Jing Ruis eyes, all beauty was useless.
Was he still a man?
Li Jingy on the ground in pain. For the first time, she started to doubt Jing Ruis sexual orientation and ability.
She supported herself with the wall and slowly got up. She was not wearing any clothes and exposed her body without any restraint. With red eyes, she said,After so many years, you still want to kill me!
Li Jings tears rolled down her cheeks, but she looked at Jing Rui stubbornly and said,I was young and insensible back then. I was too scared, so I subconsciously sought protection. Youre a man, so can you bear that little grudge until now?
It was the first time that Jing Rui had seen someone who could kill someone so easily.
Moreover, if Li Jing hadnt mentioned it, he wouldnt have remembered what had happened nine years ago, let alone the fact that someone had once used him as a scapegoat.
However, none of this was important. The most important thing was that the sense of familiarity he felt from Li Jing was back!
He had once seen this stubbornness in another person!
Jing Ruis pupils shrank and he stopped in his tracks.
He re-examined Li Jing. Her height, body shape, appearance, and voice were all different from the other person.
However, all these could be changed!
She might have grown taller in the past two years!
Everything else would change, but it was hard to change a persons personality that was engraved in their bones.
Li Jing, youd better hide yourself well. The day youre exposed will be the day you die!
The sense of familiarity grew stronger and stronger in Jing Rui.
Li Jing was so confident in her acting skills that she had been desperately looking for an opportunity to appear in front of him. Was she afraid that he wouldnt suspect her?
Li Jing did not seem to take Jing Ruis threat to heart. She pressed herself against Jing Rui and wrapped her arms around his waist. She smiled sadly.Alright, then kill me! If you kill me, I wont have to fight with my sister for a man! However, before you kill me, can you tell me where I lost? How am I not as good as my sister?
Jing Rui pulled Li Jings hand away and pushed her aside. Then he wiped his hands with a tissue.
He especially hated it when others touched him. His tolerance for Li Jing was all because of her special identity.
She was the only heir of the Li family, and killing her would cause endless trouble.
Moreover, she was Shuyins sister. Even if they did not have a good rtionship, Jing Rui did not want to kill her sister after forcing Shuyins father to his death.
Then he and Shuyin would really have a blood feud.
If Jiang Manshu got involved and he killed her, it would be equivalent to him killing Shuyins entire family!
Therefore, Jing Rui would not kill Li Jing and Jiang Manshu unless he had no other choice.
Perhaps he could only give up on this piece ofnd in B city.
Jing Rui was ready to give up on the real estate market in B city.
He didnt believe that Li Jing could control other cities as well as B city.
Jingsheng enterprise could also adjust their strategy and expand their market in other cities.
Jing Rui left with the cold wind, and Li Jing followed him.
Then, Li Jing went to find Shuyin and met her at a caf.
Shuyin didnt want toe at first, but Li Jing sent her a photo. She immediately put down what she was doing and came to the coffee shop.
What do you mean by that?
Shuyin wasnt in a good mood and her tone wasnt good, but Li Jing seemed to be in a good mood. There was a smile on her pretty face.
She took out a stack of photos from her bag and handed them to Shuyin.What I mean is, sister, you should leave Jing Rui. He is mine!
Shuyin took the photos and flipped through a few.
It was full of photos of Li Jing and Jing Rui. Jing Rui was neatly dressed, but Li Jing was only wearing underwear. The two of them were in an ambiguous position, like a couple.
There were also a few pictures of Li Jing holding Jing Ruis waist, and the two of them were so close to each other that they looked like they were kissing.
In the beginning, Shuyin hade to meet Li Jing because she had received a photo like this from Li Jing.
At that moment, Shuyin felt as if there were thousands of bees buzzing in her head. She almost lost the ability to think.
Jing Rui had just been talking to her about having children the day before, and now he was admiring another womans body?
Shuyins heart ached. She had always thought that Jing Ruis feelings for her would not change, and that there would not be any messy people between them.
But these photos were a painful p to her face!
Sister, I may be your sister, but I cant control my feelings. Jing Rui has fallen for me, so youd better quit! Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if he were to kick us out.
Li Jing took a sip of her fragrant coffee and said with a victorious attitude, Im the heir of the Li family, and Ive been a great help to Jing Ruis career. You have nothing, so dont take him away. Its the best for him to leave him, and thats the only way to truly love him.
Shuyin remained silent. She still could not believe that Jing Rui would fall in love with Li Jing.
She trusted Jing Rui deeply, and it would take a lot of time and facts to break this trust.
Maybe Jing Rui had taken a fancy to Li Jings family background, or her looks and figure, but he did not love her.
Jing Rui was dressed neatly in the photos, and his eyes were cold. Some of the photos looked like kissing, but they might have been taken by visual miscement.
If they had really kissed, Li Jing would have shown her a clearer and more direct photo.
Shuyin put the photo in her bag, stood up expressionlessly, and walked out of the coffee shop.
She wanted to cry, but she didnt allow herself to cry in front of Li Jing.
If she wanted to cry, she should find a ce with no one around and cry quietly.
Only she could see her weakness, no one else could.
When Shuyin got home, Jing Rui was already waiting for her.
Where have you been? Its already past dinner time, why are you only home now?
Jing Ruis face was full of worry. He reached out to take Shuyins backpack, but she avoided him.
This was the most natural action, and Shuyin had never avoided it. What was going on today?
Jing Rui looked at Shuyins face carefully and suddenly lifted her head up by pinching her chin. He asked angrily,Yinyin, did you cry? Whos bullying you?
Shuyins eyes were slightly red, but her expression was calm.
She showed the photo to Jing Rui and said,You!

Chapter 1285: Seen through
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui took the photos with a frown and threw them into the trash can after only looking at two of them.
Are you angry?
Jing Rui wanted to touch Shuyins hair, but she avoided him.
He could only retract his hand and said softly,how can you believe in this? If I had taken a fancy to Li Jing, would I still be dressed so neatly? Shouldnt I be taking off all my clothes?
Jing Rui exined the reason and process of his meeting with Li Jing and said seriously,Before I met her, I didnt know it was her. It was clearly not her when we were discussing the cooperation. If I knew it was her, I wouldnt even have gone.
Shuyin took a step back and looked at Jing Rui with clear eyes.When I first saw you with her, I believed you without any hesitation. This is the second time, and theres a photo as proof. Shes undressed like that, but you still didnt leave. I dont dare to trust you so easily anymore.
This was a little hard to exin. It was normal for a normal man to be unable to move when he saw Li Jings body.
But it was nothing to Jing Rui.
He had seen countless womens bodies. As an assassin, he knew the weakest part of a womans body. He had also received special training in an assassin organization countless times.
Li Jings body was beautiful, but it did not arouse Jing Ruis desire.
It didnt matter to Jing Rui whether she was naked or not, so he didnt think that he should close his eyes and leave immediately after Li Jing took off her clothes.
However, such an exnation was too weak. If he said that he wasnt interested in women, Shuyin would probably think that he was just brushing her off.
Jing Rui didnt expect that Li Jing would take a photo of him at their meeting today, and he didnt expect that she would use such a despicable method to deal with Shuyin.
Yinyin, dont doubt me. Ive never touched or liked any other woman in my life except for you. Li Jing showed you these photos to ruin our rtionship. Your man is so handsome that a thief is after him!
Shuyin also felt that Jing Rui was being targeted by a thief, but whether or not he was really after the thief, it still needed to be verified.
A beauty like Li Jing was lethal, and they looked a little simr. Jing Rui liked her type, and might like simr types too.
That night, Jing Rui was driven out of the master bedroom and had to sleep in the second bedroom.
Shuyin was cold to him. She didnt get angry, nor did she make a fuss. She just slept quietly.
Jing Rui felt a little ufortable. He would rather have Shuyin make a scene and vent all the grievances in his heart.
He hated Li Zhi so much that he gritted his teeth. He regretted that he had kicked her too lightly today!
He should have broken a few of Li Jings ribs so that she wouldnt have the energy to look for trouble.
However, this didnt matter. There was still time to cripple him tomorrow.
The next morning, Jing Rui went to Li Jing with the cold wind.
Li Zhiming knew that Jing Rui was looking for her to get even with her, but she still met him.
She did not want to miss any chance to meet Jing Rui.
Moreover, she believed that Jing Rui would not dare to kill her, and he would not be able to.
They had decided to meet at family MUs Hospital. In order not to arouse Li Jings suspicion, Jing Rui said that he was injured and was being treated in the hospital.
When Li Jing arrived, Jing Rui was lying in the ward, reading a magazine.
Li Jing looked at him from head to toe and asked,Jing Rui, where are you hurt?
Here, Jing Rui said coldly, pointing at his heart.
His heart had been hurt by that heartless Shuyin!
Although your methods are despicable, they are quite effective. No matter how I exin, my fiance wont believe me. So, I can only ask you to exin it to me today.
What else is there to exin? Li Jing smiled. My sister isnt stupid, how could she not feel that youre getting tired of the old?
She sat down by Jing Ruis bed and looked at him gently.
Jing Ruis eyes suddenly became sharp and he kicked Li Zhi down.
Hanfeng, call someone in and teach Miss Li a lesson!
Li Jing was lying on the ground in so much pain that she couldnt get up. But she seemed to have masochistic tendencies. When she saw Jing Rui get out of bed, she went to hold Jing Ruis leg, only to be kicked again.
She giggled and looked at Jing Rui with a strange look, not caring about the blood on her lips.Jing Rui, let them touch me. Lets see if they can live to see the sun tomorrow! She said.
Her eyes were filled with infatuation and madness, and the indescribable sense of familiarity appeared in Jing Ruis heart again.
He looked down at Han Feng and ordered,Lets draw some blood from her first.
He wanted to do a DNAparison!
Li Jings identity had been troubling Jing Rui for a long time. Now that there was a breakthrough, his thoughts became clear.
Li Jing, who had always been very confident, turned pale when she heard that Jing Rui was going to draw her blood.Who dares to touch me! If I cant walk out of here in one piece, my people will blow up this hospital!
Jing Rui said coldly,its rare for Miss Li to be afraid. However, how can I know your other name without drawing your blood? Youd better be more cooperative, or it wont be good if you lose too much blood.
Han Feng didnt care whether Li Jing would blow up family MUs Hospital or not. He only cared about surrounding Li Zhi with his men and preparing to draw her blood.
But Li Jings men were not to be trifled with. They surrounded Jing Rui and pointed their guns at his chest.
Li Jings usual gentleness was gone. She stared at Jing Rui and said,Tell them to get lost! Otherwise, my men will fire immediately!
The two sides were basically evenly matched. In fact, Li Jings side had more people.
At this point, Jing Rui no longer needed to take Li Jings blood.
He was almost certain of Li Jings identity!
Li Jing left the hospital under the protection of her subordinates.
Jing Rui had wanted to beat her up so that she could receive treatment at family MUs Hospital, in case she died from blood loss.
In the end, the hospital did note in handy.
Hanfeng, get more people to follow Li Jing. Also, give me the video you recorded today.
Alright, Han Feng said, amused.
What are youughing at? Im just trying to prove my innocence. Otherwise, Shuyin will keep misunderstanding me.
Jing Rui lectured his men,Youll understand when youre in love. Women need to be coaxed. You cant be angry with her, or shell get further and further away from you.
Yes, yes, yes, youre right, boss!
Han Feng was still smiling. He would not say that Jing Rui was a henpecked husband.
Shuyin was able to subdue him without crying or making a fuss. It was really rare!
Chapter 1286
Chapter 1286: Chapter 1286-the more you try to exin, the worse it gets
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was not good at coaxing women. When he first offended Shuyin, he was still cold and arrogant and left immediately.
It was only when he realized that his cold arrogance was useless and that this little woman could run faster than a rabbit that he slowly changed.
Only when a man grows up in love can love be beautiful and longsting.
The incident with Li Jing was his mistake, so it was normal for Shuyin to misunderstand.
If the situation was reversed and he saw a photo of Shuyin hugging someone naked, his anger would be even greater than Shuyin s.
Jing Rui bought flowers, Shuyins favorite fruit cake, chicken wings and went home with the video han Feng had sent him.
It was the weekend, so Shuyin didnt need to go to school. She went to family MUs Hospital to do her own research, and Jing Rui was waiting for her at home.
When Shuyin returned home, the sky was already dark.
The lights in the house were off, but there were burning candles on the floor and on the table. There were also beautiful and fragrant rose petals.
For a moment, Shuyin thought she hade to the wrong ce!
Why did she feel like she was engaged to Jing Rui?
Shuyin changed her shoes and was about to walk in when she was hugged from behind. She was then carried horizontally and walked into the living room.
Shu Yin screamed. When she realized it was Jing Rui, she pushed him away.Put me down.
Shuyin felt terrible when she thought of Jing Rui and Li Jing, who was naked. She even threw away Jing Ruis clothes that day.
Jing Rui wanted to hug her even if he had not taken a hundred showers?
Shuyin usually didnt cause trouble, but touching women was a matter of principle. She couldnt ept it in her heart, and she couldnt pretend to be magnanimous even if she wanted to.
Jing Rui knew that Shuyin was a bit of a clean freak in this area, but he was no different.
But he didnt let go. He carried Shuyin to the sofa and sat her down, smiling.
Baby, why are you only back now? If you donte back soon, my chicken wings are going to get cold!
Shuyin immediately sat further away from him and turned to ask him,What holiday is it today?
Theres no Festival, I just want it to be a little romantic, cant I? I dont want to sleep in any other bedroom tonight. I want to sleep with you in my arms.
You can go outside and hug Li Jing to sleep, Shuyin said lightly.
Jing Rui smiled helplessly. His fiance was so jealous!
He picked up the remote control, turned it on, and adjusted it a few times. Then, the LCD TV in the living room showed the scene of his fight with Li Jing today.
Shuyin finished reading it in silence. She knew that Jing Rui had no feelings for Li Jing anymore.
In fact, she had always felt that Jing Rui had no feelings for Li Jing. Although they looked intimate in the photo, Jing Ruis eyes were cold and he did not take the initiative to hug Li Jing.
She did not mind that Jing Rui had fallen for Li Jing, but she was more concerned about why Jing Rui was always entangled with her when he did not like Li Jing. Why did he allow her to undress in front of him?
Shouldnt he have left the moment Li Jing started undressing?
It was precisely because Shuyin knew that Jing Rui did not like Li Jing that she was able to continue living with Jing Rui. Otherwise, she would have chosen to disappear from Jing Ruis life.
Shuyin was still very angry when she saw the photo yesterday, but she was able to face this matter calmly today.
Li Jing may be rted to me by blood, but Ive never acknowledged her. If youre being nice to her for my sake, theres no need to. Whether shes alive or dead has nothing to do with me, and neither does Jiang Manshu.
Shuyin sat up straight and talked about this with Jing Rui seriously for the first time.
If they die in your hands, then they deserve it. You dont need to worry about my feelings, because I only treat them as strangers. Do you think you can hurt me just because we are blood-rted? Theres no sister in this world who loves her little sister so much that she would shamelessly take off her clothes to seduce her brother-inw!
Shuyin had been in the Research Institute for almost ten years. Her personality was so calm that she didnt look like a 19-year-old girl at all. Instead, she looked like a wise person who had lived for most of her life.
It was the first time he had scolded someone so angrily.
Her sister and mother had appeared out of nowhere. Which one of them really cared about her?
Did they want her to die quickly?
Jiang Manshu had asked her to kill Jing Rui, but why did she allow Li Jing to seduce Jing Rui?
Shu Yin would rather they were all dead like Shu Chengshan!
She couldnt be med for being so cold and heartless, nor could she be med for looking down on her family. It was because her family had never given her any warmth. What they gave her was only sharp and cold knives!
The knife of a loved one was often the most ruthless!
Jing Rui, on the other hand, was impressed by Shuyins coldness. He was also a cold person, and human lives were worthless in his eyes. What he was most worried about was that Shuyin would care about their blood rtionship and would be easily used and hurt by her mother and sister.
It was good to be cold, as long as she wasnt cold to him. As a girl, she didnt need to be too warm to others.
However, Jing Rui had no intention of taking Li Jing and Jiang Manshus lives. He would only make them disappear if there was no need for them to live. He would never do it himself.
No matter what, he didnt want to kill Shuyins mother and sister.
Yinyin, Im tolerating Li Jing because shes your sister. But more importantly, I think her identity is very suspicious.
Jing Rui had no choice but to tell Shuyin about his suspicions.
Originally, he didnt want to say anything. He wanted to settle Li Jings matter before telling Shuyin. After all, this was his grudge and had nothing to do with Shuyin. She was just innocently involved.
I always felt that Li Jing looked familiar when I saw her, especially when I saw her body. It was as if I had seen her somewhere before.
Shuyin frowned,youve seen her naked body before? Or have you seen the naked bodies of many women?
Jing Rui was stunned. He was making things worse!
He had indeed seen quite a few of them, but he couldnt admit to this no matter what. Otherwise, Shuyin would ignore him even more.
In the past, when he looked at other women, he had never taken them seriously. After all, he was a genius child who had already known about the things between men and women since he was three years old!
No, I only saw some corpses in the killer organization!
Are you saying that Li Jing is a dead person? Shuyinughed.
Seeing that she finally smiled, Jing Rui put her on hisp and pinched her cheek.Of course shes alive. Well find out who Li Jing is in a few days. Youll be surprised when we tell you.
Shuyin knew that Li Jings identity had its own secrets, and the grudges in her heart dissipated. She didnt avoid Jing Ruis hug, but said,I dont like her. Stay away from her!
Chapter 1287
Chapter 1287: You bought me a car?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui smiled.Silly girl. I have been keeping my distance from her and keeping my guard up against her. Cant you tell?
I cant tell, I can only tell that youre about to kiss her!
Thats a matter of angle. Im far away from her!
Jing Rui could not do anything about the photos. Li Jing must have nned this, otherwise she would not have taken off her clothes so quickly that day.
Fortunately, he hadnt been friendly to Li Jing the whole time, and the photos he had taken showed his cold face. Otherwise, it would have been even more difficult to exin.
He pulled Shuyins hand and stood up.Lets go. Lets go eat. I made you chicken wings and bought you a cake!
As he spoke, he leaned over and kissed Shuyin on the forehead.Yinyin, Happy Birthday!
Shuyin raised her head in surprise. It cant be, right?
She had not celebrated her birthday in too many years! She had almost forgotten when her birthday was!
Back in the Research Institute, who cared about your birthday?
Whether or not they could live to see the sun tomorrow was another matter. The virus would torture people so much that they would not even remember the luxury of celebrating their birthdays.
Jing Rui held her waist and said softly,Thats right, Yinyin. Today is your birthday. Ive been looking for your birth date for a long time, but I couldnt find it. I only found out recently from Jiang Manshu.
It was good to have a mother alive. Otherwise, Jing Rui would not have asked about Shuyins birth.
Her birth date had been changed the moment she entered the Research Institute. Even Lucas, who was in charge of raising her, couldnt remember Shuyins real birthday.
Shuyins age was correct, but the exact date of birth on her ID card was written casually.
Shuyinughed.No wonder its like this today. Its my birthday!
She thought it was a Festival!
It was such a happy thing to have someone celebrate her birthday with her!
Could she make a wish and blow out the candles like she did when she was young?
Jing Rui sat down at the table with Shuyin and lit the candle for her. He said,These are all your favorites. You can eat as much as you want today!
Shuyin had been forbidden from eating chicken wings by Jing Rui for a long time. She was very excited to see chicken wings.
But she looked at Jing Rui in confusion.Is this the only dish for my birthday?
There was only a beautiful cake and a te of chicken wings on the marble table. Shuyins diet had been improved by Jing Rui, and she was starting to like vegetables.
She was not used to the suddenck of vegetables on the table.
Besides, was she going to have dinner alone? Was Jing Rui not going to eat?
Jing Ruiughed when he saw Shuyin looking for other dishes. Dont worry, theres plenty to eat. I just wanted to show off my cooking skills, so I didnt ask the chef to bring out his dishes!
As he spoke, he took out an exquisite velvet box from his pocket and handed it to Shuyin.This is your birthday present!
Shuyin epted it happily. She felt like she was celebrating her birthday when she was young.
In the past, Shu Chengshan and Jiang Manshu would also prepare a table full of dishes, buy cakes, and give her gifts for her birthday.
At that time, she was ignorant of everything and lived in A Beautiful Lie. She was pure and happy.
That was a rare moment of warmth in her life.
There was a ring in the box, but it was different from the one Jing Rui had given them when they were engaged. The diamond on the ring was a stunning pink, the size of a pigeon egg, and was polished to a brilliant color. It was worth a fortune.
Shuyin didnt know much about jewelry, but she had a general idea of the value of this type of diamond ring.
Some time ago, an aqua blue diamond simr to this one was auctioned at a high price to a rich foreign man, which caused quite a stir.
The corners of Shuyins lips curved upwards.When Im out of money in the future, I can sell this for money. I wont have to worry about food and drink for the rest of my life!
No way. I just gave it to you and youre saying youre going to sell it in front of me? My heart, it instantly shattered into pieces!
Shuyin giggled,then why dont you just give me more money? Its such a big diamond ring. Ill be easily robbed if I bring it out, right? Oh, can you give me another car? its safer for me to drive out by myself!
Jing Ruiughed and touched her nose.Youre not polite at all. Ill give you a diamond ring, a car, and a few more bodyguards.
Jing Rui had already thought about giving her a car. He had even gotten Shuyin a drivers license.
He was just waiting to personally teach Shuyin how to drive.
A few dayster, Shuyin returned home and saw a dark red Maserati in the courtyard.
She was surprised that Jing Rui had bought the car back so quickly.
She circled the car a few times and liked it very much. The Maseratis smooth lines and elegant look were very suitable for girls to drive.
Shuyin was pleasantly surprised by the sports car when she saw Jing Rui drive back.
The moment he got out of the car, Shuyin pounced on him and kissed him happily.You bought me a car? It was so beautiful! I really like it!
Jing Rui was confused. Buy a car?
When did he buy a car?
He hadnt even started teaching Shuyin how to drive, and he hadnt given her his drivers license, so how could he have bought a car?
However, Shuyins excitement was evident on her face, and Jing Rui was smart enough not to say anything.
He looked around and saw the red Maserati.
The color and style were indeed very suitable for Shuyin, and he had originally nned to buy a Maserati for her.
Who was one step ahead?
If he found out, he would definitely beat this person to death!
Jing Ruis high IQ and EQ allowed him to deal with the situation quickly. He did not say that he had bought the car, nor did he deny it.
Shuyin was so excited that she did not notice the loophole in Jing Ruis words.
She let go of Jing Rui and went into her car.
Jing Rui heaved a sigh of relief and called for Han Feng. He frowned and asked in a low voice,Whats with this car?
You didnt buy it for Shuyin? Han Feng asked in shock. Someone from the 4S shop sent the car here today and said you ordered it!
Jing Rui had already asked Han Feng to send someone to check out the Maserati in the 4S store, and Han Feng had told Jing Rui the model and price. When someone came to deliver the car today and said that it was ordered by a Mr. Jing, he thought that it was Jing Rui who bought it.
After Han Feng and Gao ya checked that there was no problem with the car, they drove it in.
I didnt buy it. Go and check who bought it!
Jing Rui was not happy at all. He was worried that there was something wrong with the car.
As soon as he finished speaking, his phone beeped, indicating that he had a new message.
Jing Rui opened it and saw the words clearly:
Brother, did sister-inw like the car I gave her?
Chapter 1288
Chapter 1288: Newbie
Trantor: 549690339
It was a car from Jing Zhi!
Jing Rui was a little angry that his brother had taken away his chance to buy a car for Shuyin. He wanted to send the car back to Jing Zhi, but he gave up the idea when he saw how happy Shuyin was.
He would just treat it as a gift for Shuyin and give the money to Jing Zhiter.
Jing Zhi was really generous. He gave her a Maserati that was worth more than two million Yuan. He was a star now, so he couldnt spend any more money.
Jing Zhi sent the message over and saw that the other party had read it.
Heughed and felt proud that he had given the right gift. He had sent it to his brothers heart!
It was good to be rich!
When he was poor, he could not even afford a tire, let alone a sports car.
After buying a car for Shuyin, Jing Zhi wanted to buy one for Zheng yuluo.
She was 18 years old this year and could drive.
Buying a car for Shuyin didnt require much effort from Jing Zhi.
Because Jing Rui had already chosen the brand, car and color, he only needed to pay for it.
However, Jing Zhi had to pick one himself for Zheng yuluo.
From the performance of the car to the appearance, then to safety andfort, Jing Zhi had done a lot of homework. He had chosen the car ording to Zheng yuluos preferences and personality for a long time.
He had never been so meticulous even when he bought a car for himself!
He bought a red one for Shuyin, and a white one for Zheng yuluo.
He felt that Zheng yuluo preferred in colors, and white was the most suitable for her.
Jing Zhi had the car sent to the Zheng family after they bought it.
He had waited for a few days, but there was no reply from Zheng yuluo.
That shouldnt be the case. Shouldnt she be thanking him happily?
There was no news for a week, no news for a month, no news for three months.
Jing Zhi had even gradually forgotten that he had sent a car to Zheng yuluo.
By the time he remembered, it was already the harsh winter.
The reason why he was reminded of this incident was that he had met Zheng yuluo, who had just started her career as a neer, when he was filming!
It was the middle of the winter, but they were filming a summer scene.
All the actors and actresses were dressed in summer clothes, short shirts, short sleeves, and short skirts.
Zheng yuluo was dressed in a school uniform and yed the role of a female student.
Her slender and delicate figure stood in the street scenery carefully arranged by the crew, waiting for the male lead to appear.
The male lead was Jing Zhi.
Originally, Jing Zhi wouldnt have paid any attention to a small supporting role.
In this scene, there were many actresses who appeared with Zheng yuluo. They were all nonchnt characters. In order to highlight the male leads charm, they just had to stand on the street and act like infatuated girls.
However, Zheng yuluo was much more attractive than the other girls in school clothes, so she stood at the front of the crowd and was the closest to Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi couldnt believe his eyes.
Zheng yuluo was acting?
Shes in the entertainment industry?
It was such a cold day, and she was wearing so little. She was just standing there and suffering from the cold. With her weak body, wouldnt she fall sick when she went back?
Because of Zheng yuluos sudden appearance, Jing Zhi had forgotten his original lines. He had even forgotten what he was supposed to show, which was his disdain for the love-struck female students.
There was no doubt that this scene was going to be a bad take.
Therefore, the girls had to stay in the cold wind for a while longer.
Zheng yuluo was the closest to Jing Zhi. Her eyes were fixed on him the whole time, and she noticed every change in him.
She knew that Jing Zhi had been in a daze.
She also knew that her appearance might have been too sudden.
However, she had fought hard for this role with her managementpany.
She had known that Jing Zhi had epted the role, so she had put in a lot of effort to get into the crew.
In fact, she had been with the crew for a few days already, along with the other girls. She couldnt help but watch Jing Zhi shoot from a distance.
The female lead was a popr actress with fair skin and good acting skills. She was a perfect match for Jing Zhi.
The female lead looked especially youthful and beautiful in the same school uniform. All the other student characters in the movie paled inparison to her.
Zheng yuluos excitement from being able to act with Jing Zhi quickly turned into sadness.
She had just stepped out of the spotlight and was far too far away from the female lead.
She wasnt the kind of beauty who was outstanding. In the entertainment industry, where beauties were everywhere, her looks were really not considered stunning.
She still had a long way to go before she could get close to Jing Zhi and act with him.
Zheng yuluo had received a few months of training, but her acting skills were still rusty. She had little acting experience, little training, and very ordinary talent, so she could not get a good role at the beginning.
She stood in the bone-chilling wind and her whole body was almost frozen stiff, but she did not dare to show any coldness.
Because it was a summer scene, all of them had to show that they were in full swing.
This was actually very difficult, at least for Zheng yuluo.
She shivered as soon as she met Jing Zhis cold eyes.
Jing Zhi didnt allow her to enter the entertainment industry, but she didnt listen to him. She could tell from his expression that he was furious.
Zheng yuluo believed that she would have been scolded by Jing Zhi if they were not filming.
The scene had three bad takes before it passed.
This was a rare sight for Jing Zhi.
He had taken on many roles, and almost all of them were his true colors. He was cold, domineering, and had very few NG takes.
If it had not been for Zheng yuluos appearance today, this scene would have definitely been passed on the first try.
During the filming, Jing Zhi wanted to find Zheng yuluo and ask her what was going on.
But when the shoot was over, Jing Zhi lost the interest to question Zheng yuluo.
What could he do even if he asked?
Could it change Zheng yuluos determination to enter the entertainment industry?
If she had listened to him, she wouldnt have appeared here.
Was it that easy to survive in the entertainment industry?
She was still too young and too innocent!
An 18-year-old girl who had just entered a brand new and prosperous world full of temptations. She had yet to experience the pain of failure and did not know the sinister nature of the human heart. Did she think that she could be a popr goddess by relying on her own efforts?
In your dreams!
In the entertainment industry, which famous female star had not suffered before?
All those negative rumors were flying everywhere, and all kinds of ck material emerged one after another. Were they all fabricated by the media?
In this industry, no one could stay out of it, especially beautiful young girls who had yet to experience the world!
This was an industry with the most unspoken rules!
After Jing Zhi finished the scene, he went to his lounge to rest without looking at Zheng yuluo.
Chapter 1289
Chapter 1289: Shes already very good
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhis heart ached at the thought that Zheng yuluo might have been tainted by another man!
She did not know how many times she had acted and how many times she had suffered!
Jing Zhi was not afraid of the cold because of his special Constitution. He also had a considerate assistant who would give him a down jacket and a hand warmer at any time.
What about Zheng yuluo?
No wonder there was no response from the car he had sent her. She probably didnt even know that he had sent her a car.
Jing Zhi had grown up from an unknown person. He knew very well that it was very difficult at the beginning. Zheng yuluo might have been attending training outside, doing various activities with the managementpany, and helping famous actors.
Zheng yuluo had said that she had run away from home.
Jing Zhi had thought that she had gone home to study, but she hadn t. He didnt continue to go to school!
His heart ached for her, so he didnt let her be an assistant, and then she ran off to be an actress!
His chest was burning with pain, but he suppressed it and did not go to Zheng yuluo.
Jin Xin had obviously noticed Zheng yuluo as well. He added salt to Jing Zhis wound without a care.What kind of lousy roles did your woman take up? whats the difference between her standing there and an extra? I dont know what kind of manager she found to take care of her. She might as well have followed me back then! At least I have good resources on hand, so she can y a supporting role with some scenes, and not an extra without even a line!
Shut up! If you hadnt suggested that she be an extra, she wouldnt have be an actress!
Jin Xin wasnt going to take the me!
He immediately said,my dear ancestor, even if I didnt say it, thedy would have thought of it herself. Youre allowed to be a male God, but others cant be goddesses? Your acting career is at its peak. If she wants to be with you for a long time, improving herself is her only way!
Shes already very good, she doesnt need to improve!
Jing Zhi felt that it was good enough for Zheng yuluo to maintain her original appearance. She only needed to study hard, graduate from college, and find a stable and easy job as a casual white-cor worker.
She didnt need to earn too much money, and it would be best if she didnt have too much fame.
If they were to get together in the future, Jing Zhi didnt want to be an actor forever.
Celebrities looked morous, but in reality, they were not allowed to have any private life. They even had to hide all their past things and only show the best side of themselves to the public.
He didnt want to take Zheng yuluo on a vacation. There were always paparazzi and reporters secretly taking photos of them.
She might not be very confident now. After all, youre so handsome and popr, and youll be even more popr in the future. There will be even more people who like you. Shes too mediocre in all aspects and isnt worthy of you.
Jin Xin was much older than Jing Zhi, so he had a deeper understanding of the problem of a match between two people of equal social status.
The girls status could be high, but not too high, or the marriage would be out of bnce.
The Zheng family was just an ordinary family, and Zheng yuluo was just an ordinary girl. If she stayed where she was, the gap between her and Jing Zhi would only grow.
Its a good thing that shes positive. The entertainment industry isnt all about unspoken rules. Some actresses did climb up with their own abilities. If she can do it, why cant Zheng yuluo?
There were very few female celebrities who climbed up the socialdder with their own abilities. Many female celebrities didnt seem to have anything special about them, but they were still able to get by like fish in water. This was all because their families had huge resources.
Take Jing Zhi as an example. If he had relied on the mediapany under Jingsheng enterprise, he would have be famous even faster and had a much wider career.
There were very few ways that the Zheng family could help Zheng yuluo.
In Jing Zhis eyes, Zheng yuluo was just a delicate little girl who liked to cry, had no opinions of her own, and trusted others easily. With her personality, she wouldnt even survive the first episode of a Pce drama!
The women in the entertainment industry were not much different from the women in Pce dramas. There were many cases of backstabbing!
Jing Zhi rubbed his forehead in frustration.Zheng yuluo isnt suitable for the entertainment industry. Shes more suitable for school. After graduation, shell stay and be a university teacher. Shell live a peaceful life!
Aiyo, little ancestor, its really easy for you to talk. This girl is with you, and she still wants to live a stable life? Youre so famous now, unless she gives up on you, she wont be able to live in peace for the rest of her life.
Jin Xin didnt think Zheng yuluo was as innocent as Jing Zhi had said.
If Zheng yuluo really liked a simple life, she wouldnt have bothered Jing Zhi, and she wouldnt have tried to find a manager to enter the entertainment industry.
In my opinion, Zheng yuluo doesnt like a dull life at all. I feel that she enjoys acting and is very good at finding the camera. And she lookspletely different from thest time she came. Now, she has makeup on and her hair done. She has started to develop herself!
Jing Zhi didnt like to hear that. The Zheng yuluo he knew wasnt a person who pursued fame and fortune.
Dont be so long-winded. Go and find out which manager shes working for, which managementpany shes affiliated with, and see how shes doing.
It was easy to investigate this matter in the entertainment industry, and Jin Xin brought back the news the next day.
Zheng yuluos managementpany is not bad. Its a bigpany with a lot of resources, but there are also a lot of big shots. A good script and role definitely wont be for a neer like Zheng yuluo. The point is that her manager is also a neer. The two of them are semi-transparent in thepany and dont have much status.
Jin Xin really treated Jing Zhi like his ancestor. He would agree to any request he made, as long as it wasnt too much.
Why dont I poach Zheng yuluo to my side? he asked tentatively.With the two of us taking care of her, she will be famous faster.
Other people needed a long time to get into the entertainment industry, but Zheng yuluo was lucky. With Jing Zhi as a big tree, her future would be much smoother.
After all, Jing Zhi was in charge of clearing the obstacles. He could use his own power to help Zheng yuluo take up roles, distribute his resources to her, and slowly make her famous.
No need, let her suffer a little!
Jing Zhi rejected Jin Xins suggestion.
He still did not agree to let Zheng yuluo be an actress.
He hoped that Zheng yuluo would back off and remain as simple as before.
The current Zheng yuluo waspletely out of his control. She did not listen to him at all and acted on her own.
Jing Zhi felt exhausted and ufortable.
Didnt he enter the entertainment industry to have the ability to give Zheng yuluo a better life?
The moment Zheng yuluo entered the entertainment industry, all his efforts were meaningless!
Jing Zhi gave himself a break after the drama.
With Jing Xis help, he finally met his brother.

Chapter 1290: Let go
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui did not look happy when he saw Jing Zhi, because he felt that Jing Zhi did not listen to him at all and was still entangled with Zheng yuluo.
Jing Rui did not say anything. Jing Xi was afraid that her second brother would be too embarrassed, so she immediately held Jing Ruis arm.Big brother, Ive invented a new type of little fire bean. Do you want to take a look? Its so fun, it will explode into fireworks and has a bad smell, it can instantly defeat the enemy!
The name she had given him was rather cute. What little fire bean? it was clearly stinky egg!
Jing Rui had already heard about it from Jing Yichen. He said immediately,No need, you can y with it!
Jing Xi had used it once at home. It smelled so bad that Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning had taken her to a vi in the suburbs for three days.
Jing Zhi didnt know the power of the little fire bean, so he asked curiously,Xixi, show me one. Can you make fireworks now? Release one at night to open my eyes!
Jing Xiughed and agreed. She carefully took out a ck ball the size of a walnut from her backpack.Second brother, you have good taste! Youve be different after bing a celebrity. This is for you! In the future, whoever you dont like, just throw one at his house. I guarantee hell treat you with respect!
Jing Zhi epted it expectantly, and then an idea came to him.Why dont I try it out here? Brother, lets take a look at our sisters genius little invention together, how about it?
Jing Rui had to say something, otherwise Jing Zhi would set the ball on fire and the house would be ruined.
If you want to y, go back to your own house!
Jing Zhi said happily,Alright, alright, Ill go home and y!
Jing Rui got up and went to the study. He returned to the living room and handed Jing Zhi a check. Dont make your own decisions in the future. I dont care if you give Zheng yuluo anything, but you dont have to give Shuyin anything.
Jing Zhi took the check and tore it into pieces after one look.
Brother, this is for my sister-inw. Youre not jealous of this, are you? Then youll have to drink a jar of vinegar. Shuyin used to take care of me a lot, and she even helped me bandage my wounds!
Jing Zhi sounded like he was joking, but Jing Rui was not.
I was the one who arranged for her to take care of you.
Jing Rui didnt care that Jing Zhi had torn the check. He would just transfer the money to Jing Zhi after tearing it.
He had spent a lot of time and effort choosing a car for Shuyin, but in the end, Jing Zhi had stolen the credit and bought the car back.
Jing Rui wanted to beat Jing Zhi up when he thought of this.
Jing Rui knew that Jing Zhi had given Zheng yuluo a car, and he also knew that the car had not been driven once after it was sent to the Zheng family.
Jing Rui always felt that his brother had given his heart to someone else, but his family was just perfunctory.
Jing Zhi was bing more and more famous. Although Jing Rui was cold to him, he was actually relieved.
Jing Zhi could go out and explore the world on his own. Jing Rui felt that he could finally let go of Jing Zhi.
Go back to your own home. I wont interfere with your future matters.
Especially when it came to love, even if Jing Rui did not like Zheng yuluo, he did not intend to care about it anymore.
Jing Zhi would fall in love with whoever he liked, and he would have to deal with both happiness and pain.
Jing Zhi sat there in a daze. He could tell that his brother was talking to him calmly this time and really wouldnt care about him anymore.
Jing Zhi had been in low spirits ever since he came home from Jing Ruis ce.
In the past, his rtionship with his brother was not like this.
No matter what mistakes he had made, his brother would always forgive him and take care of him.
Jing Zhi would rather have his brother give him a good scolding than to see him let go of himpletely.
The root of everything began with Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhi used to think that no matter how willful he was, his brother would always support him behind his back, so he put more energy into Zheng yuluo. As long as Zheng yuluo appeared in front of him, he would almost forget everything.
Did he do something wrong?
Zheng yuluo seemed to have really be a curse in his life. As long as she existed, his life would be a mess.
Jing Zhi was depressed for half a month. He didnt go to film, nor did he go out to y like he had nned.
Losing his brothers care and trust, Jing Zhi felt that his life had lost all color.
Many of his childhood memories that he had forgotten slowly appeared in his mind.
When he was young, he was isted, but he didnt feel too sad because his brother had always been there. He was the most outstanding and mysterious one in the eyes of all the children.
All the children were jealous of him, because he was the only one Jing Rui protected.
He could not me Jing Rui for not liking Zheng yuluo so much now. He had never lost his memory. On the contrary, he had an outstanding memory and could remember many little things clearly even if many years had passed.
Jing Rui probably knew everything that Zheng yuluo had done in the past, and he had never forgotten the mistakes she had made.
Jing Zhi had fallen in love with her and forgave her.
But Jing Rui did not forgive her.
Jing Rui did not let go of anyone who had hurt him, except for Zheng yuluo.
For one thing, her family name was Zheng and she was Zheng Jings daughter. Jing Rui would not kill her for Jing Yichens sake.
Secondly, she was the main culprit. Jing Rui had once said that he had left Zheng yuluo to Jing Zhi to deal with.
Jing Zhi had not appeared in the public eye for a long time, but Jing Ruis life was still the same.
He hadpletely let go of his brother, and his heart was much more rxed.
Jing Rui had been aware of the responsibilities that he had to shoulder since he was a child. He knew that there were many people behind him that needed protection and care.
For a long time in his life, Jing Zhi had been the target he had protected at the risk of his life.
Now that Jing Zhi was independent and had his own career and ideas, Jing Rui had extra energy to take care of his fiance and younger sister so that she would not cause trouble.
Most importantly, he didnt need to teach Jing Zhi how to run thepany anymore. He could devote himself to the development of Jingsheng enterprise.
Jing Zhi now had enough power to protect himself, and because he was bing more and more famous, even if the people in the dark wanted to kill him, they would have to think twice.
If she became a well-known celebrity, she would have anotheryer of protection.
Jing Rui had not wanted his brother to enter the entertainment industry, but he had gotten used to it and thought that it suited Jing Zhi.
It sounded like a good idea to have a star in family Jing.
Chapter 1291
Chapter 1291: Who will give birth?
Trantor: 549690339
The winter was over, and the warm spring came back. The snow gradually melted, and fresh grass grew. The withered city was full of vitality.
Jing Rui held Shuyins hand as they walked along the cobblestone path in the park, chatting andughing.
The man was tall and straight, and the woman was elegant and gentle, like a celestial couple.
Aiya, my experiment failed again. Why arent you worried?
Youre only twenty, whats there to be anxious about?
Im not professional enough, why dont we find someone else to try? You didnt kill all the people in the Research Institute, did you? Although theyre all paranoid, theyre all really amazing people. Its better for everyone to study together than for me to study alone.
Jing Rui frowned,who do you want me to try it on? I wont try! How old are you? youre a child yourself. Why are you in such a hurry to have a child?
This matter had simply be Shuyins obsession. She was so obsessed with her research that she didnt even attend school sses much.
Not that kind of test, its an embryonic experiment. Youre not allowed to deliberately misinterpret my meaning!
Shuyin grabbed Jing Ruis sleeve and stomped her foot. Every time she mentioned this to Jing Rui, he would always change the topic.
Moreover, she was in such a hurry to solve the problem. She was not in a hurry to have children. She was afraid that it would be toote to start the research when she wanted children!
The Emperor was not in a hurry, but the concubines were!
Theres no misunderstanding, no misunderstanding! I only trust you and no one else!
Seeing Shuyin getting anxious, Jing Rui smiled. It was good that this little woman was willing to give birth to his child!
However, he really didnt want to have a child too early. Jing Xi was already a headache. Fortunately, this girl was only his sister and not his daughter. Otherwise, he would have been tortured even more miserably.
Didnt you see that even Jing Yichen, who had always been a tyrant in A city, avoided her daughter?
The thousand square meter house inndscapepound was no longer big enough for her. Jing Yichen had to buy the entire parking lot on the second floor of the basement in order to prevent his daughter from blowing up the whole house. He had turned it into a hugeboratory for her.
In the end, the entire neighborhood was filled with inexplicable explosionsing from underground. From time to time, there would be slight tremors, making the other residents think that there was an earthquake.
Fortunately, there were only a few permanent residents. Otherwise, there would definitely be a lot ofints.
Her daughter was so destructive that Shangguan ning always suspected that she had given birth to the wrong gender.
Even his son was not as torturous as this little girl!
Theres no hurry to have a child. You can slowly study it. Who knows, you might get pregnant one day? I still want to spend a few more years with the two of us. Otherwise, if we go out for a walk, there will be a little tail following us, and it will ruin the atmosphere!
Shuyin didnt know whether tough or cry!
There was also a family of three taking a walk in the park. They didnt ruin the atmosphere and instead felt that it was more warm and romantic.
Forget it. You cant me me for not having a child when the timees. Dont force me to have a child when family Jing has no heir.
Shuyin toot and tried to use the word heir to provoke Jing Rui.
But Jing Rui smiled and said,If we dont have a child, we can let Xixi have one in the future, and the child will follow her surname, Jing, and inherit the family business! Shes so smart, so her children must be smart too!
Shuyin waspletely defeated by him.Xixi is still so young. Dont even think about her. Shes still a child!
Well, we can ask herter.
In the living room of the vi, Jing Xi shook her head like a rattle.No, no, no, I dont want to have children. Theres a little baby downstairs who cries and pees every day. I carried her in the squarest time and she peed all over me!
Jing Rui said calmly,you dont have to take care of the child. You are only responsible for the delivery. The servants, our mother, and your sister-inw will take care of the child.
That wont do either. Mom said that its very painful when giving birth! Im afraid of pain!
Theres a painless delivery now, which can minimize the pain. When you grow up and get married in the future, youll definitely have children. Now, Im just asking you to have one more.
No, no, no, brother, you can have one more with sister-inw. Give me one in the future, and I wont have to give birth to a single one!
Shuyin sat on the side and watched Jing Rui and the ten-year-old Jing Xi discuss the issue of having a child. She felt inexplicably amused.
This brother was too unreliable!
Fortunately, Jing Xi was different from ordinary children. She knew more and was more mature than children her age. That was why she could continue the conversation with Jing Rui.
The two of them were arguing seriously, but Shuyin couldnt stopughing.
Suddenly, she was not so obsessed with children anymore. Maybe Jing Rui was right. Let nature take its course. Maybe she would really have a child.
Life was a miracle, and they might be able to create another miracle.
The brother and sister talked for a long time, but neither of them could convince the other.
Jing Xi didnt have much concept of having children. She just didnt like children. She was a child herself, and those little ones were all stupid. It was no wonder she liked them!
She hugged Shu Yins arm and acted coquettishly.Sister-inw, please talk to my brother. He actually wants me to have a few more children. Do you think hes my real brother?
Jing Xis hair had grown longer in the past two years. Shu Yin helped herb her soft hair and smiled.Dont listen to his nonsense. How can giving birth be so casual? You can have fun now and go to school!
Jing Xi immediately turned to Jing Rui and gave him a victory sign.
Jing Rui didnt mind. His sister was still young, and she could take her time to brainwash her.
It was more difficult to brainwash people with high IQ, but it didnt mean that it was impossible!
Who knows, maybe the little girl will fall in love with a child?
Jing Rui used a gentle way to deal with family matters, but he used a brutal way to deal with business.
In the end, Jingsheng enterprise got thend in City B. Although they paid a high price, they would not lose anything in the future.
Li Jing had not appeared in public for a long time. On the other hand, Liao Wei seemed to have no one to control him and was bing more and more arrogant.
There were already rumors in A city that the young President of Jingsheng enterprise was having an affair with several women.
Jing Rui waited patiently. Li Jing was very powerful in all aspects, and the Li family was no less powerful than the Jing family. Even if Li Jing appeared now, he could not kill her.
He couldnt kill Li Jing.
As long as he could grasp Li Jings weakness and make her not dare to act rashly, that would be enough.
Liao Weis role had been yed, and it was time to collect the debt!
This man was a total failure. Jing Rui had gotten a lot of information about Zishan from him and used him to send false signals to Zishan.
With that, he felt that he could give Liao Wei a quick death.
Chapter 1292
Chapter 1292: Death
Trantor: 549690339
Liao Wei had been living a carefree life recently. He had a face that was very simr to Jing Rui s. Even if he did not have a single cent, many women would throw themselves at him.
Moreover, in order to make him look more presentable, Zishan had bought a lot of clothes for him, from a sports car to a vi, from shoes and socks to a suit, all of which were top-notch.
No one knew where Jing Rui lived anyway, so Liao Weis Vi was not a big deal.
Zi Shan had not looked for Liao Wei for a few months, only asionally asking him to report on the progress or give him some instructions. The rest of the time, Liao Wei was extremely free.
He lived in a mansion, drove a luxury car, and flirted with beautiful women. Liao Wei was drunk in his vi with a swimming pool.
He was hugging two beautiful women on his left and right, and they were trying their best to serve him.
Liao Weis lower body quickly changed. He pulled up one of the beautiful women and tore off her underwear.
There was a sudden violent explosion in his ears, and several bullets shattered the big floor-to-ceiling windows of the vi.
Liao Wei quivered and pushed away the woman who was still making love a moment ago. He jumped into the pool while screaming.
When the explosion stopped, Liao Wei carefully poked his head out of the water and saw Jing Rui standing by the pool, with his men.
He immediately looked as if he had seen a ghost. He was so scared that he peed his pants!
Fortunately, he was soaking in the pool at the moment. Otherwise, he would be embarrassed to death in front of so many people.
The woman who was having sex with Liao Wei was called Tang Qinqin. She could be considered a youngdy from a small family. At this moment, she was so scared that her face turned pale, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.
The person was aggressive and cold, as if he wanted to kill someone. Most importantly, he actually looked very simr to Liao Wei!
Tang Qinqin got up from the ground in a hurry and put on the clothes that she had thrown on the ground earlier, but she was very suspicious of Jing Rui and Liao Weis identity.
She was willing to sell her body for Liao Weis pleasure, partly because she thought that Liao Wei was really handsome, but more importantly, she thought that he was the future heir of family Jing. If she could get him, she would be able to get all the properties of family Jing for free. He would no longer have to worry about money for the rest of his life.
However, when she saw Liao Weis terrified expression, Tang Qinqins heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
In contrast to Tang Qinqins panic, the other girl apanying Liao Wei, Tong Xiaonan, was calm andposed.
She took a bath towel and wrapped her exposed body with it. Then she walked to Jing Rui and called him respectfully,Boss,
When Liao Wei saw this, he almost fainted in the swimming pool!
Tong Xiaonan was Jing Ruis man!
How could this be possible?
Hadnt the Tong family always been at odds with the Jing family?
As one of the heirs of the Tong family, why would Tong Xiaonan call Jing Rui boss?
She had been hiding by his side for half a year. Jing Rui had seen all of his movements and actions.
Tang Qinqins eyes widened as well. She suspected that she was hearing things and seeing things!
She and Tong Xiaonan had grown up together, and they were so close that they could even wear the same pair of pants. The two of them were the kind of rich missies who only knew how to enjoy life, and they were even smug about being together with Liao Wei!
What was the situation now?
She called the man who looked exactly like Liao Wei boss?
She even called her father, Tong Kaifeng, by his name, but she actually called him boss?
Jing Rui only nodded at Tong Xiaonan and turned to look at Liao Wei in the pool.
Do you choose to drown yourself, or do you choose my people to drown you?
Jing Ruis tone was cold, and his eyes were as sharp as knives. He had an arrogant and fierce aura around him, as if Liao Wei would be trampled to death if he dared to climb ashore.
The immense psychological pressure almost made Liao Wei copse. Before he saw Jing Rui, he had been nning how to kill him and rece him.
But when he saw Jing Rui in person, he just wanted to run as far away as possible.
When he was facing Zishan, Liao Wei still had some confidence because he knew that Zishan could not bear to kill him and could not bear to part with his face.
But in front of Jing Rui, Liao Weipletely copsed.
He was a huge threat to Jing Ruis life, and Jing Rui would not let him live.
Dont kill me, I beg you to let me live! I can destroy this face immediately!
In terms of strength, even Liao Wei was no match for Jing Rui in a one-on-one fight. Now he was alone, and Jing Rui had a group of men behind him. It seemed that none of them were easy to deal with.
Liao Wei immediately begged for mercy without any backbone.
After being tortured by Zishan for the past few years, begging for mercy was just a daily urrence to him!
I wont dare to do anything in your name anymore! But I was your substitute for a long time back then. Even if I dont have any credit, I have worked hard!
Jing Rui looked at Liao Wei coldly and ordered his men,Drowning!
If Liao Wei had been an honest substitute, he would have been able to live afortable life. But he was too greedy to try to rece Jing Rui and take over all the properties of family Jing.
Jing Rui would not let such a person live.
He wanted to witness Liao Weis death with his own eyes and destroy that face that was exactly the same as his.
Otherwise, what if Shuyin was cheated by this face one day?
The body double was ast resort after she left A city to save Jing Zhi. Everything in the past was a mistake.
Its time to end this!
From then on, he no longer needed to hide his identity and kill people, save his brother, take care of his brother, and no longer needed a substitute.
Tang Qinqin and Tong Xiaonan saw Liao Wei drown to death with their own eyes. Both of them were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
Tang Qinqin, in particr, was trembling in fear. She didnt even realize that she had bitten her lips until they bled.
Tong Xiaonan knew that Jing Rui was a ruthless man. She had been working for him for years, but she had only met him twice, including this time. It was scary to see him kill people with no expression on his face.
She stood aside in fear, thinking that the Tong family should never offend Jing Rui in the future. They should do whatever he said, or they would end up like this substitute.
It didnt take long to drown a person. Jing Rui and his men left soon after, taking Liao Weis body with them.
Only Tang Qinqin and Tong Xiaonan were left in the vi. Tang Qinqin couldnt help but burst into tears.
The next day, Tong Xiaonan took Tang Qinqin to Jingsheng enterprise.
Boss, do you still need more men? she asked in a respectful voice, her eyes full of anticipation. My sister may not be good at other things, but shes quite good at seducing men. If theres a mission in the future, we can work together.
Chapter 1293
Chapter 1293: Meeting the assistant again
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui raised his head and looked at the two pretty girls.
Tong Xiaonan, 21 years old, was the only girl in the Tong family. She was the Apple of her parents eyes. She was smart and had won the city-wide shootingpetition. She had more say in the Tong familys Affairs than her brother and brother.
Tang Qinqin, twenty years old, was the pampered youngdy of the Tang family. Other than acting coquettishly, she didnt have any special skills. The Tang family had many offspring, but they did things their own way. There were many internal conflicts, so they had not been able to develop.
Why were there people fighting to sacrifice their bodies now?
Jing Rui usually did not want people without special skills, because they would only be a burden.
However, Tang Qinqin, who was standing behind Tong Xiaonan like a Frightened Rabbit, reminded Jing Rui of someone.
Unlike the tall and handsome Tong Xiaonan, Tang Qinqin was petite with a baby face and fair skin. She was as delicate as a little white flower.
If it werent for her huge chest, others would think that she was an underaged junior high school student.
Her big eyes were filled with tears, as if she had been bullied. She seemed to be ready to cry if Jing Rui said that he did not want her.
Even Jing Rui could not tell if she was pretending or if she really loved to cry.
Do you usually cry like this?
Jing Ruis voice was cold, and Tang Qinqin shrank back in fear.
She hurriedly wiped away her tears, but it seemed that the more she wiped, the more tears she shed. After a while, her sleeves were wet, and Tong Xiaonan anxiously gave her a look.
Tang Qinqin tried her best to wipe away her tears and said timidly,N-N-N-no No
Tang Qinqin was apletely different person in front of Jing Rui and Liao Wei.
Jing Rui had never seen the other side of Tang Qinqin, and he thought that she was very simr to Zheng yuluo when he saw her delicate appearance.
She looked different, but the feeling of weakness and helplessness was very simr.
It was ast resort. Maybe he could let Tang Qinqin try. This would be thest time he would help Jing Zhi.
Tang Qinqin became Jing Zhis assistant a few dayster.
Tang Qinqin felt that happiness hade a little too suddenly when her first mission was to be a popr young hunk at the level of a male God!
If she could sleep with Jing Zhi, Jing Rui would not only give her a lot of money, but she would also have no regrets in her life.
She was Jing Zhis real fan!
But Jing Rui told her that Jing Zhi was a violent man who had killed many people in the past, and that she should be careful.
Her male God was a killer. No matter how infatuated Tang Qinqin was with him, she couldnt help but be frightened.
After getting to know him, Tang Qinqin realized that Jing Zhi was just like his character. He was so cold and heartless that he didnt seem like a real person!
Moreover, his tongue was so sharp that he could make people cry in minutes.
Tang Qinqin had never suffered much since she was a child. She had been Jing Zhis nanny, cleaner, and maidservant. Her small hands were blistered, and her arms and waist hurt. She also didnt get enough sleep. She was so sad that she cried every day.
After working as an assistant for a week, Jing Zhi gave Jin Xin a suggestion. Cant you pick someone who can endure hardships? An assistant like Tang Qinqin could only cry. My ce is dry andcking water? Hurry up and chase them away!
Dont scold her so much, just give her some encouragement, and shell smile,Jin Xin said nonchntly.
Jin Xin had already discovered that Jing Zhi seemed to have no resistance to girls tears. He would always get irritated and irritated whenever they cried.
Which woman doesnt drop gold beans?
Jin Xin had seen more women than Jing Zhi had, and there were countless female stars in the entertainment industry who used their tears as a weapon.
If he couldnt bear it and was always irascible, he would torture himself to death in a few days.
She could cry if she wanted to. Tang Qinqin was pretty anyway. She would look good even if she cried. Besides, even if she did cry, she would finish all the work.
The free assistant was just a little teary. Who was going to iron Jing Zhis clothes if she was chased away? Who was going to peel peanuts and pine nuts for Jing Zhi?
Jin Xin had already regretted driving Lian Xiaoli away, but now that there was free food again, he couldnt just drive her away.
Tang Qinqin had been well-behaved for half a month before she started to attack Jing Zhi.
She was not here to be a nanny, she was here to sleep with her Prince Charming!
Her male God was obviously a man of self-restraint, and this kind of man would make Tang Qinqin extremely excited.
Tang Qinqin knew nothing about studies, but she had an outstanding talent for seducing men.
She had figured out Jing Zhis habits and weaknesses within a few days.
On the first day, Tang Qinqin identally cut her finger and blood gushed out. She cried in pain but forced herself not to make a sound and not go to the hospital.
Prince Charming, I cant bandage one of my hands. Can you help me?
We can t!
The next day, Tang Qinqin forgot to pull down the zipper on the side of her one-piece dress, revealing arge part of her body. She swayed in front of Jing Zhi for a long time, and Jing Zhi finally couldnt help but ask,Tang Qinqin, are you a pig? Just go out like this? Why dont you just be naked!
On the third day, Tang Qinqin twisted her foot and fell straight on Jing Zhis body. Jing Zhi caught her instinctively.
Hiss, it hurts!
In order to make it look more realistic, Tang Qinqin really twisted her ankle. She was used to being pampered, so she cried in pain.
Jin Xin saw that her ankle had swelled up very quickly, and he immediately said,Jing Zhi, take her to the car. Dont let her walk, or her leg will be broken!
Jing Zhi picked up Tang Qinqin and said in frustration,Shut up! Dont cry! If you keep crying, Ill throw you away!
Not far away, Zheng yuluo stood there in a daze, watching Jing Zhi enter the RV with the injured girl in his arms.
That scene just now was so familiar!
Once upon a time, Jing Zhi had hugged her like that and scolded her impatiently for not letting her cry.
Zheng yuluo had heard from her crew that Jing Zhi had a beautiful and gentle female assistant with him, and that the two of them seemed to have a special rtionship, so she came.
She didnt believe it at first, but what did she see when she came?
His chest hurt as if it had been torn apart by someones hand!
That heart-wrenching feeling made Zheng yuluo want to end her life just like that.
Perhaps, she had made an unforgivable mistake when she was eight years old, and she would have to pay for it with her life.
She had once buried this man with her own hands, and now, she had fallen hopelessly in love with him.
Sister, dont look anymore. Just forget about him!
Zheng Yuwei had appeared behind Zheng yuluo out of nowhere, her voice deste and sad.
It had been some time since she had graduated from military school and returned to China. She had been with Zheng yuluo on the set every day, and she would even take Zheng yuluos ce in dangerous scenes where she had to be hung on wire.
She would rush to do all the dangerous things for her sister, afraid that she would get hurt.
However, the most invisible love that could kill people| She could no longer rece her sister in love.

Once one fell in love, all the small things would be magnified infinitely, and all the mistakes would be unforgivable.
Tang Yiyi didnt think that anything was wrong when Jing Zhi threw her into the seat.
All she thought about was that she was actually hugged by her idol today, so it was worth it even if she sprained her ankle!
She was born with the delicate appearance of a little white flower, but in fact, she had a strong psychological quality and herbat value was off the charts.
Aiya, it hurts, it hurts!
Jing Zhi wanted to leave, but Tang Yiyi refused to let go of his clothes.
Her fair face was covered with crystal tears as she said pitifully,It hurts
Jing Zhi was stunned for a moment, and he immediately thought of Zheng yuluo.
He had met another person who looked more like Zheng yuluo so quickly, but after experiencing Xiao Lings incident, he understood that no matter how simr a girl looked, she was not Zheng yuluo herself.
He pulled the corner of his shirt out of Tang Yiyis hand and got out of the car without looking back.
On the other hand, Jin Xin and his two other assistants were very concerned about Tang Yiyis foot injury. It was swollen to the height of a steamed bun, and it was obvious that she wasnt pretending.
Tang Yiyi wasnt disappointed to see Jing Zhi leave. She was just a little disappointed.
Was this persons heart made of stone?
Tang Yiyi touched her face and looked down at her chest, her mind full of doubt.She had the looks and the body. Did Jing Zhi like men?
Forget it, if I dont seed this time, Ill try something else next time!
Tang Yiyis foot was in so much pain that she didnt even have the heart to go to her kidney.
Jing Zhi got out of the car and saw Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei standing not far away.
He did not know how much Zheng yuluo had seen, but he did not go over to exin.
The assistant twisted her leg and fell on him. He couldnt push her to the ground and let others carry her to the car.
If he hadnt suffered from Xiao Lings incident and Tang Yiyis leg wasnt injured like that, he would have sent her to the hospital without hesitation.
But now, he was worried about Zheng yuluo, so he directly threw his assistant to the other assistants.
Humans werent nts, and they couldnt ignore the people around them. Tang Yiyi might be a crybaby, but she was a serious and conscientious person who had never made any mistakes. Jing Zhi didnt think it was inappropriate to carry her into the car in a hurry.
However, he had seen Zheng yuluos jealousy before. She would have thought too much about Xiao Lings matter back then.
Fortunately, he got out of the car quickly. If he had kept Tang Yiyipany, he did not know how jealous Zheng yuluo would be.
She was the woman he liked, and even if she was jealous, Jing Zhi would find her quite cute.
Jing Zhis lips twitched. He felt like he was possessed. If it were any other woman, he would probably only feel disgusted.
In the past, he hated women crying the most. The environment he grew up in had shaped his values, and in his world, crying was the most idiotic and useless act.
For example, Shuyin, who had stayed with him at the Research Institute for a long time, had never cried. The cruel environment of the Research Institute made her know that only death awaited her if she cried in the face of difficulties!
Zheng yuluo had never suffered since she was a child. She had not experienced the torture of life and death, so she still retained some of her childs heart.
Her sister, Zheng Yuwei, had suffered a lot in the military school. She used to be a crybaby, but now she had grown up to be a bold and heroic girl.
However, Jing Zhi didnt like the cold Shu Yin, nor the heroic Zheng Yuwei. What could move him was Zheng yuluos weakness.
Only a girl like Zheng yuluo could arouse Jing Zhis strong desire to protect her. He always wanted to help her solve her problems and shelter her from wind and rain.
Tears werepletely useless to Jin Xin, who had seen all kinds of acting skills.
But to Jing Zhi, it was a deadly weapon.
Seeing Zheng yuluo crying, he wanted to walk away, but he didnt move a step.
The chauffeur had already taken Tang Yiyi to the hospital. Jin Xin was Jing Zhis manager, so of course he had to go to Gu Jingzhi first. He didnt go to the hospital, but stood next to Jing Zhi and looked at him with a strange expression.
You and your woman standing here makes me think of an idiom. Oh, the cowherd and the weaver!
Jing Zhis heart was broken by Jin Xins words.
Old Jin, does your Chinese teacher know that youre so good at idioms?
Love shouldnt be heavy. Jing Zhi walked out of his depression and left with Jin Xin without looking at Zheng yuluo.
Zheng Yuwei stomped her feet in anger after Jing Zhi left.Sister, he doesnt have you in his heart. Why do you still like him?
If it wasnt for the fact that she couldnt beat Jing Zhi, Zheng Yuwei would have stopped him and beat him up.
Thats good, Zheng yuluo said softly.Otherwise, itll be bad for him if there are rumors.
Zheng Yuwei didnt agree with this. She furrowed her brows and said,If he liked you enough, why would he care about the gossip? There are so many celebrity couples in the entertainment industry. How could she have the courage to announce her rtionship and marriage?
The two sisters hadpletely changed their personalities. Zheng Yuwei was straightforward and hated to drag things out, while Zheng yuluo was gentle, delicate, and sentimental. The little girls mind was more heavy.
Those who knew them all felt that Zheng Yuwei should be the elder sister, and Zheng yuluo should be the younger sister.
Its better not to announce it. I entered this industry to get closer to him, not to cause him trouble. Im not thinking of using his fame to hype myself up.
Zheng yuluos voice was much gentler than her sister s. She was very clear about her position and goal, so she did not get angry with her sisters dissatisfaction.
It would be best if there were no scandals. She would improve herself and one day, she would be able to stand side by side with him.
She loved Jing Zhi more than she loved herself. As long as Jing Zhi didnt fall in love with someone else, she would support him in whatever he did.
Zheng yuluo stood in the wind for a long time and was urged by her sister many times before she left.
She wasnt very famous now, so she only took on small roles and had very few scenes.
Zheng Yuwei was preparing to enter the criminal Police unit recently. She was worried and gave Zheng yuluo a lot of advice before going home to prepare for the physical test.
Zheng yuluos drama was a hit, and all the actors gathered for a meal. Many people went to toast the director and producer, and Zheng yuluo was there as well.
The producers name was Liu Zhan. Apart from being a little fat, he had a rather refined temperament. He had a round face and looked very kind. He also held the life and death of a group of actors in his hands, so more actresses flocked to him than the director.
After all, the director was already married. He and his superstar wife were famous in the entertainment industry for being a loving couple.
Although Liu Zhan was over 40 years old, he was still single. Even if an actress made a harmless joke with him, he would not be called a mistress.
Chapter 1295
Chapter 1295: Unspoken rules of the entertainment industry (2)
Trantor: 549690339
Perhaps he was used to joking with actresses, but when Zheng yuluo went to propose a toast, Liu Zhan smiled and put his hand on her shoulder.
Zheng yuluo, right? I see that youre doing very well. Keep working hard. Youre so beautiful and willing to work hard. Youll be famous very soon!
Zheng yuluo was a little surprised that the producer could call out the name of a small supporting role.
It was just that his hand kept on resting on her shoulder, making her extremely ufortable.
Other than Jing Zhi, no other man had ever touched her.
As Liu Zhan spoke, the smell of alcohol sprayed on Zheng yuluos face, making her feel a little disgusted.
She subconsciously dodged backward, and Liu Zhan let go of her hand, but he seemed to have inadvertently touched her buttocks.
Zheng yuluos entire body stiffened, and a thinyer of mist quickly appeared in her eyes.
Liu Zhan seemed to be unaware of it. He smiled at her and said,You cant do it with such a shy personality. Instead, youll have intimate actions with the male actors during filming. I wanted to give you the second female lead role, but now Im in a difficult position!
The moment they heard that the second female lead role could be taken, the actresses who had originally nned to disperse quickly gathered together again.
Aiya, our great producer Liu is too biased! Howe theres only sister yuluo as the second female lead, and not us?
Brother Liu, we sisters are all here to toast, you cant favor one over the other! Yu Luo is shy, but Im not. Im an actor, so its worth it to make any sacrifice for the sake of art!
The actress took advantage of her close rtionship with Liu Zhan. Not only did she call him brother, but she also kissed him on the cheek with a smile.
In all fairness, Liu Zhan was not ugly. With his chubby face, he looked a little like the kind Maitreya Buddha.
The other actresses also didnt take a kiss seriously and kissed him one after another.
Zheng yuluo was the only one who was squeezed to the periphery. She stood there like a block of wood with red eyes.
Liu Zhan nced at the lovely little girl without saying a word. His heart felt like it was being scratched by a kitten, and it was very itchy!
At his level, what kind of woman had he not yed with?
He couldnt even count the number of female celebrities who had been pressed down by him!
Having dealt with women for a long time, he had a sharp eye and could tell at a nce that Zheng yuluo was different.
Some men liked little chili, and some men liked green apples. Liu Zhan loved girls like Zheng yuluo the most, who was delicate and beautiful, shy as a Virgin.
Destroying a pure white and tender little flower, listening to her cry and beg for mercy under him, leaving her full of scars, just thinking about it made Liu Zhans blood boil!
Usually, Liu Zhan would not even remember her name for a small supporting role.
However, Zheng yuluo was too attractive to him, and he could not forget her even if he wanted to.
She was weak and tender, as white as a piece of paper, and her facial features were as exquisite as a painting. However, she was not aware of her own beauty and was particrly serious in filming. It made peoples hearts ache and made their hearts throb.
Liu Zhan sneered in his heart as he dealt with the women throwing themselves at him.
A woman who had entered the entertainment industry wanted to be a pure white Lotus that had grown from the mud? In your dreams!
He did not believe that Zheng yuluo would be willing to be mediocre and be a supporting role forever!
As long as she was unwilling, as long as she wanted to climb up, there would be a day when she would beg him!
Liu Zhans expectations were not wrong. In just three days, Zheng yuluo hade to him.
Producer, can I y a role in your new drama? You dont have to be the second female lead, a small role will do.
Liu Zhan was lyingzily on the sofa in the living room of the Presidential Suite in a bathrobe. He had never had much patience for things like prey being delivered to his mouth.
Sure,e over and give me a kiss first, then Ill consider letting you join.
Liu Zhan was actually a little disappointed. He still preferred the pleasure of chasing after prey.
When he touched Zheng yuluos butt the other day, she looked like she was about to cry. He had thought that she was a chaste woman, but in the end, she was just like those foul-smelling women who could sacrifice everything for fame.
Could it be that they were acting that day? Was he pretending?
Before Zheng yuluo came, she had already expected some of the humiliation she would face today.
However, she had toe.
This was because the male lead in Liu Zhans next movie would be Jing Zhi.
The candidate for the female lead had not been decided yet, but Zheng yuluo knew that it was impossible for her to be the female lead with her qualifications. She did not even have any thoughts about being the second female lead.
She only needed a small role.
I can do anything. Please change your request. I Im not used to being too close to people.
Zheng yuluo tried to be as tactful as possible. She was afraid that she would offend the producer if she rejected him directly, and it would be more difficult for her to advance in the future.
A beauty was indeed a beauty. Even if she lowered her head and only showed her side profile, Liu Zhan still felt that it was pleasing to the eye.
Its good to be young. Look at her delicate skin, its like you can squeeze water out of it!
Liu Zhan suddenly got up, took off his bathrobe, and walked to Zheng yuluos side. He suddenly pressed her into his arms and smiled with ill intentions.Zheng yuluo, this is a good move! Ive been a yboy for so many years, but I was almost fooled by you!
Under the bathrobe, Liu Zhan was not wearing any clothes at all. His fat body squeezed Zheng yuluos body hard and tore her clothes off.
Zheng yuluo screamed in shock and anger,let me go! Dont touch me!
She punched and kicked Liu Zhan, but it was useless. Her strength was notparable to Liu Zhans at all.
The womans resistance and screams stimted Liu Zhan, making him extremely excited.
As expected, a little wild cat that scratched people was more likable!
Stop pretending. Youre already in my room and youre still pretending to be noble? Didnt you want to act? Ill just give you the second female lead. If you serve me well, its not impossible for you to be the first female lead!
Zheng yuluo cried, threw a tantrum, hit, and bit him. Liu Zhan only thought it was for fun, and he was not angry at all. Instead, he said in a good mood,The male lead of this movie is a popr young hunk, Jing Zhi. If you act with him and have a scandal with him, youll be able to bask in his glory very soon!
Zheng Yu burst into tears when she heard Jing Zhis name.
If he knew that she had been touched by a fat and disgusting old man, would he still want her?
How was she going to face him in the future?
Zheng yuluo screamed at the top of her lungs,Liu Zhan, let me go! Youre not human! I dont want the role anymore, dont touch me! You disgust me!
Liu Zhans good temper onlysted for a minute, and then he gave Zheng yuluo a few ps.
Her fair face quickly became red and swollen, and blood flowed down from the corner of her lips.
Bitch! You came to seduce me and still want to protect your chastity, yet you dare to scold me? Ill kill you today! I want everyone to know that i f * cked you, hahaha!
Chapter 1296
Chapter 1296: Heart-rending
Trantor: 549690339
After a few days of rest, Tang Yiyis foot was much better. She was young and her body had always been strong, so she didnt need anyone to help her anymore. She just had to walk slowly and it wouldnt hurt too much.
However, she was a girl. When there was no man to take care of her, she could grit her teeth and endure all the pain. She would be strong and tough.
When there was a man to rely on, there was no need to be so strong.
Tang Yiyi deliberately limped over to Jing Zhi.Aiya, it hurts, it hurts!
But as she cried out in pain, she poured a ss of water for Jing Zhi, cut a stack of watermelons for him, and brought him a cup of coffee.
Jing Zhi frowned,arent you in pain? Go to the side and rest, if you continue to stroll around, get lost!
Tang Yiyi toot and said softly,Im not wandering around, I just went out to buy you some fruits.
Jing Zhis frown deepened,you went out for a walk? You should just be a cripple for the rest of your life!
Tang Yiyi wasnt angry at all even after he cursed her to be a cripple. She knew that Jing Zhi cared about her. He had a sharp tongue, but he was actually a soft-hearted man who couldnt bear to see girls suffer.
He had a bad temper and was very impulsive, but he would never really do anything to the people around him.
Tang Yiyi looked like a fragile little white flower that could be blown over by the wind, but she was actually very strong-minded and resilient. She had never taken Jing Zhis words to heart.
On the contrary, she felt warm when Jing Zhi scolded her.
At least Jing Zhi wouldnt order her around and let her rest.
Tang Yiyi sat down next to Jing Zhi, blinking her big, watery eyes. She ate more than half of the watermelon she had given Jing Zhi and chatted with him happily.
Prince Charming, you took on another show, right? I heard from big brother Jin that youre also the male lead! Youre amazing, youre my idol!
Jing Zhi ignored her. He sipped his coffee and flipped through the script he had just received.
Tang Yiyi didnt seem to realize that she had been left out. She continued to nag in a gentle voice.
Its not easy to be an actor. I see that you havent had a good rest these few days. You didnt even eat yesterday. Poor you!
Sigh, but its still fine for the male actors. Its even harder for the female actors. They still have to sacrifice themselves to apany the director and the producer!
When I went out to buy some fruits, I saw a very beautiful actress asking for producer Liu Zhans room number. That fat guy is so fat, and that actress actually dared to eat him?
Whats the actors name? I think shes called Zheng Yu Luo? Aiya, I forgot that its still luoyu. She looks like a pretty girl
Jing Zhi turned his head abruptly, his expression fierce and dark.What did you say?
Tang Yiyi was so shocked by him that she dropped the watermelon in her hand onto the carpet.
Ah? I I said shes pretty!
Jing Zhi grabbed Tang Yiyis neck and pulled her up from the sofa. He said angrily,Who did you say went to apany Liu Zhan?!
Zheng yuluo! Cough, cough, cough, let go of me, Im going to be strangled to death by you!
Tang Yiyi was scared out of her wits. She didnt know why Jing Zhi had suddenly changed into a different person. It felt like he was about to kill someone.
Impossible! Zheng yuluo isnt that kind of person!
Tang Yiyi did not know Zheng yuluo very well, but she felt that there were many actors in the entertainment industry who sacrificed their bodies to get roles. Who knew what kind of person the innocent-looking Zheng yuluo was?
She didnt know why Jing Zhi had such a big reaction when he heard the name Zheng yuluo, but it was obvious that he had something to do with this woman. Tang Yiyi immediately shouted,Youll know if its true or not when you go and take a look!
Which room is Liu Zhan staying in?
1601!
Jing Zhi threw Tang Yiyi onto the carpet with a thud and left the room at an astonishing speed.
Tang Yiyi felt as if she had seen a ghost. Jing Zhis speed just now was inhuman.
His body was almost turning into an afterimage!
A minuteter, the door to Room 1601 was kicked open with a loud bang.
The top quality wooden door of the hotel was crushed like tofu by Jing Zhis feet.
Zheng yuluo, who was in despair, and Liu Zhan, whose blood was boiling, looked at the door at the same time.
As the wood chips fell, a cold and tall figure walked in.
Liu Zhan was both shocked and furious.Jing Zhi?!
Jing Zhis expression was cold, and his entire body was filled with a cold killing intent. His eyes turned red in an instant when he saw Liu Zhan pressing Zheng yuluo under him, stark naked.
His body disappeared on the spot. Under Liu Zhans frightened eyes, he used an inhuman speed to cross more than ten meters in an instant and arrived in front of Liu Zhan. He ruthlessly kicked his fat body away!
Liu Zhan screamed and hit the wall. He spat out arge mouthful of blood and fainted.
Then, the room fell into a dead silence.
Everything had happened too quickly. Zheng yuluo was still clutching her clothes tightly as shey on the carpet, panicking and helpless.
Jing Zhi, on the other hand, stood there like a statue, frozen in the same position.
However, in reality, the monstrous mes of anger in the depths of his heart had already burned him to the point of copse!
He was trying his best to restrain himself from kicking Zheng yuluo, who was lying on the ground with her clothes in a mess!
The woman he had not been willing to touch for a long time had just been pressed down by another man!
How could she allow another man to touch her?
Didnt she know that he protected her like a treasure every time he touched her?
Why did she want to enter the entertainment industry?
Why did hee to Liu Zhan?
Why couldnt she trust that he loved her!
If Tang Yiyi had not happened to see Zheng yuluo, he would not have known what had happened today!
If he hade a littleter, he didnt even dare to imagine what would have happened!
Jing Zhi, who had never shed a tear even when he was tortured by a group of people for research in the Research Institute, suddenly burst into tears.
Back then, when he was tortured the most, he had never felt such pain!
It was a heart-wrenching pain!
The cold tears fell on Zheng yuluos forehead, making her heart ache.
Her fingers trembled as she reached out to touch Jing Zhi, but she retracted her hand in embarrassment when she was about to touch his clothes.
Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhis slightly hoarse and cold voice sounded above Zheng yuluos head, making her heart tremble.
Most of the time, he had called her by her full name, but he had never called her in such a cold and desperate tone.
From now on, I wont love you anymore. Youre not worthy!

Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo couldnt hold it in anymore and burst into tears.
Jing Zhi, dont be like this. I didnt know this would happen today. I thoughtI thought
You think Liu Zhan is a good person?!
Zheng yuluo choked!
She knew that Liu Zhan was not a good person. He had taken advantage of her when she was toasting him.
Jing Zhi closed his eyes slowly. In the past, every time Zheng yuluo cried, he would always be particrly soft-hearted and couldnt help but hug her andfort her.
But today, she had finally seeded in grinding away his soft-heartedness!
When he saw Zheng yuluo crying, he no longer felt the heartache and pity from before. There was only sadness and pain.
I said that Ill let you go home and study. I said that I wont allow you to enter the entertainment industry. Zheng yuluo, did it feel good to be pressed under another man? Before you entered this room, did you consider my feelings?
Jing Zhi was almost roaring at the end of his sentence.
He had thought that he would be jealous of Zheng yuluo for filming intimate scenes with other male actors, but before Zheng yuluo could receive that kind of script, he had already seen a passionate scene!
And this was just the beginning of Zheng yuluos entry into the entertainment industry and the baptism of the storm.
Zheng yuluo cried hard and said in a choked voice,I know I shouldnt havee. Liu Zhan told me to y the second female lead before. I didnt take it to heart at first, but I found outst night that youre the male lead in this movie. I want to be closer to you, I want to act with you!
Jing Zhi suddenly burst intoughter, but there was no mirth in his voice. It was filled with mockery.
The second female lead? Youre not even rted to Liu Zhan, and he wants you to y the second female lead? Are you an idiot? Is this your first day in the entertainment industry?
Jing Zhi did not turn around and leave immediately. In fact, he wanted to give Zheng yuluo a chance to exin. He wanted to hear Zheng yuluo say that she had been tricked by Liu Zhan intoing here and that she had note willingly.
In his heart, Zheng yuluo was not the kind of person who would sacrifice herself for a role.
But now?
Jing Zhisst bit of hope was shattered.
He didnt need to listen anymore. If he continued to listen, he would only be stabbed in the heart.
His voice was cold and his tone was indifferent.So youre sleeping with me because of me. This is really my fault. Dont worry, you wont have such an excuse anymore!
Thats not an excuse!
Zheng yuluo was already frightened by Liu Zhan. When she heard Jing Zhis words, she broke down.
I like you, and I want to be with you! I dont want the gap between us to get bigger and bigger. I want to work hard to keep up with you! I long for the day when I can stand side by side with you and act opposite you. I dont want to see you fall in love with someone else in the movie!
Jing Zhi was unmoved. He just looked at Zheng yuluo indifferently, then turned around and walked out of the room, leaving Zheng yuluo alone, crying sadly.
Jin Xin was responsible for dealing with the aftermath of the huge damage Jing Zhi had caused.
Hepensated for the hotels losses, settled Zheng yuluo, and sent Liu Zhan, who was on hisst breath, to the best hospital in A city. Finally, Liu Zhans life was saved.
Liu Zhan wasnt a nobody. As a producer, he had a strong background. If he died, it would bring Jing Zhi a lot of trouble.
It was already midnight by the time Jin Xin returned to the hotel.
Jing Zhi was smoking on the sofa, the ashtray full of cigarette butts.
My ancestor, do you want to die? Smoking so many cigarettes at once would kill someone! You still have to shoot an advertisement tomorrow, and smoking will seriously affect your state of mind. Your nails and teeth will be ckened! Quickly put out the cigarette!
After Jin Xin finished rambling, he realized that he had neglected a problem: When did you learn to smoke?
Jing Zhi didnt answer him. After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice,Old Jin, thank you.
Jin Xin had no rtionship with him, but he had always cleaned up his mess for him. Jing Zhi wasnt the kind of person who didnt know how to be grateful.
Jin Xin was his manager, but he didnt get a lot of money because he made him famous. He didnt care about money, but he wanted to prove to the artistes who had abandoned him that he had the ability to make neers famous.
He was just trying to fight for his pride.
But now, Jin Xin was probably going to be disappointed.
Jin Xin was taken aback by Jing Zhis words.
It was harder to hear a thank you from Jing Zhi than to ascend to heaven. It seemed that he had suffered a huge blow today.
Jin Xin sat down next to Jing Zhi and said calmly,What are you thanking me for? youre the one whos embarrassing. I cant just watch Liu Zhan die and then you be a murderer. I cant act anymore.
Jing Zhi wasnt afraid of murder, but he felt warm when someone cared about him and tried their best to protect his reputation.
He had only ever felt this kind of warmth from his brother.
And because of Zheng yuluo, her brother was now very cold to him.
Jin Xin didnt know that Jing Zhi was a devil who killed people like flies. He said in a tone that seemed to have seen through the world,Jing Zhi, youre too young and too impulsive. Its not worth it to ruin your life for a woman. If Zheng yuluo wants a role, its better to beg you than Liu Zhan.
The entertainment industry is a big dye vat. She has no power or influence, but shes beautiful. Men will definitely want her. Although she escaped today, as long as shes still in the entertainment industry, there will be countless Liu Zhans waiting for her.
Today is just the beginning. Oh, no, it had actually started a long time ago. Perhaps you dont know this, but an actor has been eyeing Zheng yuluo for a long time, but it just so happened that her twin sister blocked him. Her sister is a tough nut to crack. That actors jaw was broken.
Jing Zhi didnt know about this, but what could he do even if he did?
Persuade Zheng yuluo to leave?
She would not listen.
He was so busy that he did not even have time to eat, let alone protect Zheng yuluo personally. He could not help her deal with the men who came to her door all the time.
Zheng Yuwei couldnt always be by Zheng yuluos side to protect her. If she couldnt protect herself, she would be like those women sooner orter, unrecognizable.
Jing Zhis heart was broken, and he had no strength to me Zheng yuluo.
The life he was living now was not what he wanted. He was already too tired!
After a sleepless night, the next day, when the sun broke through the darkness and the earth became bright again, a piece of news shocked the entertainment industry.
Jing Zhi announced that he would be leaving the entertainment industry for good.
When his acting career was in full swing, he gave up the fame and glory that he had worked so hard to obtain!
He was only one step away from bing an international superstar.

Trantor: 549690339
Jin Xin stared at the news on his phone, unable to believe his eyes!
Jing Zhi, are you crazy?!
Why did you post that without discussing it with me?
Ive worked so hard to bring you to where you are now, and youre going to destroy it all with just one sentence?!
Jing Zhi was dressed in casual clothes. He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in his room with a calm expression.
The morning sun shone on his body, ting him with a beautiful golden light, making his originally handsome facial features even more perfect and dazzling.
Old Jin, if you work for me, Ill pay you as much as I do now.
Jin Xin felt like he had been F * cked. Either his brain had been hollowed out, or Jing Zhis brain had been damaged.
Wasnt he working for Jing Zhi before?
He was Jing Zhis manager in name, but in reality, he was Jing Zhis assistant and nanny.
Hurry up and delete your statement. Ill tell the media that your ount was hacked! Ill just pretend this never happened. If you dare to mention quitting the entertainment industry again, I Ill die in front of you!
Jin Xin had finally been able to hold his head high recently, and the artistes who had abandoned him in the past had alle to him for cooperation, but he had never given them a good look.
If Jing Zhi were to quit showbiz, everyone wouldugh like crazy.
No, Ive already decided to quit. The entertainment industry doesnt suit me. Although our sess is considered smooth, were busy all day long and dont even have a private life. I still like to be an ordinary person.
Jin Xins liver hurt from Jing Zhis anger.
Stop acting. Youre famous, youve earned a lot of money, and youve been pushed to the top and be a Prince Charming. Then, you say that you dont want to be a celebrity and want to be an ordinary person? Are you worried that Liu Zhan will take revenge on you because you severely injured him yesterday?
When Jing Zhi heard the name Liu Zhan, he raised his eyebrows and his eyes turned sharp and cruel.
He should have killed Liu Zhan!
But he couldnt use his identity as Jing Zhi to kill him, or he would not be able to live in the light anymore, and he would bring trouble to family Jing and Jing Rui.
It was fine. Liu Zhan was not much different from a dead person now anyway. He would have to lie in bed for at least half a year before he could slowly recover his mobility.
Seeing Jing Zhi remain silent, Jin Xin knew that he wasnt actually afraid that Liu Zhan would join forces with others to shut him out. He couldnt help but ask,Or, did you leave the entertainment industry for that woman called Zheng yuluo?
Jing Zhi was still silent, but the fierce look in his eyes had disappeared.
Jin Xin pped his thigh in anger,are you stupid? He gave up his bright future for a woman! Do you think people will appreciate your retirement? He might immediately climb up another branch!
Also, weve signed quite a few contracts with other people before. If you leave the entertainment industry, youll definitely have to break them. The hugepensation youll have to pay is something you cant afford even if you sell yourself!
Hurry up and pack up. We have an appointment with a big brand today. We still have to shoot an advertisement!
He still felt that Jing Zhi was acting on impulse and made this decision on impulse. He would be fine after he thought it through in a few days.
He lectured Jing Zhi, then immediately released a statement exining that Jing Zhis Weibo ount had been hacked and that someone had maliciously made a statement
When Jing Rui woke up, he found out that Jing Zhi had left the entertainment industry. He was confused when he saw the ount statement sent by his agent.
He called Tang Yiyi, who had been by Jing Zhis side the whole time, to ask about the situation.
Tang Yiyi told Jing Rui everything that had happened, including all the details that she knew.
Jing Rui finally realized that Jing Zhi had given up his career because of Zheng yuluo!
It was all thanks to him that he had sent Tang Yiyi to Jing Zhis side. Otherwise, Zheng yuluos innocence would have been ruined.
Jing Zhi could really give up anything because of Zheng yuluo.
He had thought that it would be an honor for family Jing to have one more famous actor or even an international superstar. But now, he had nothing.
Jing Rui hung up the phone and was a little stunned.
Jing Zhis life had been rough. He had owed Zheng yuluo a lot in his previous life, so he had to suffer so much in this life.
When Zheng yuluo was young, she was insensible and made mistakes. Why were they still the same when they grew up? the two of them always had trouble.
Jing Rui knew from Tang Yiyis words that Jing Zhis withdrawal from the entertainment industry was not because he was being hacked, but because he really wanted to quit.
Didnt Zheng yuluo say that she was acting for him? Did she go to the producer for him?
He might as well quit acting. In that case, Zheng yuluo would no longer have any reason to stay in the entertainment industry, right?
He really had good intentions!
However, Jing Rui felt that Jing Zhi had paid too much to protect Zheng yuluo.
Was it worth it?
Jing Zhis withdrawal from the entertainment industry not only made Jing Rui fall into deep thought, but also shocked Zheng yuluo.
Although Jin Xin had exined that his ount had been hacked, Zheng yuluo still had great doubts.
Because Jing Zhi had told her yesterday that he wouldnt give her any more excuses to fight for a role.
Zheng yuluo had never expected Jing Zhi to use such a method!
The price was too great!
If she had known that Jing Zhi had sacrificed his acting career in exchange for her not being an actress anymore, she would have quit.
Zheng yuluo sat on the bed with her phone in her hands. Even though it had been a few hours, she still couldnt believe that Jing Zhi was going to quit the entertainment industry.
Zheng yuluo only found her soul when Zheng Yuwei called her.
Sister, whats going on? Why did Jing Zhi suddenly want to leave the entertainment industry? Was his ount really hacked?
Zheng yuluo was silent for a while before she said in a dry voice,Wei Wei, I might have done something wrong again.
On the other end of the phone, Zheng Yuwei was obviously stunned, and then blurted out,Sister, did Jing Zhi leave the entertainment industry because of you? Why? That didnt make sense! Youre a woman and hes a man. Its not like youre going to steal his show!
Why? Zheng yuluo couldnt say.
Jing Zhi had seen her run into the producers room for a role and he had seen her being taken advantage of.
He was furious!
He had always been unwilling to let her enter the entertainment industry or act. After seeing that scene, he was even more unwilling.
So, he left the entertainment industry. From now on, if she ever got close to any director or producer, it would be her own ambition. It would no longer be a sacrifice for love.
If she really loved him, she would follow him and leave the entertainment industry.
Zheng yuluo sat there in a daze, unable to even hear Zheng Yuweis words.
Chapter 1299
Chapter 1299: This must be a movie!
Trantor: 549690339
It had been an entire week since Jing Zhi announced his retirement from the entertainment industry. Jin Xins initial hope had turned into disappointment, and then despair.
Jing Zhi wasnt just saying it. He wasnt acting on impulse. He really gave up his acting career without hesitation.
Jin Xin wanted to cry. He had spent so much effort and begged so many people to help Jing Zhi gain the poprity and status he had today, but Jing Zhi had just given up on him without even a trace of nostalgia.
Could it be that all the fame, wealth, status, and friends could notpare to a woman?
Could Jing Zhi not be moved even if he had the whole world?
There were so many beautiful women in the entertainment industry, and there were all kinds of them. Why did Jing Zhi fall for the unremarkable Zheng yuluo?
Had Zheng yuluo saved Jing Zhis life before?
Jin Xin went to find Jing Zhi with this question in his mind. He wanted to get to the bottom of this and die with an answer.
Jing Zhi was half-lying on the sofa at home, eating an orange. He seemed to be in good shape, not as desperate and deste as he had been a week ago.
There was even a faint smile on his handsome face.
Zheng yuluo, why would she save my life? its good enough that she doesnt want my life! I almost died in her hands a few times. Shes a jinx. Every time I meet her, Im always in bad luck, and its a Big Bad luck!
Then why do you still like her? Jin Xin was stunned.
Yes, I like her. I like her even though she killed me. Why?
Idiot! Jin Xin couldnt help but spit out the word.
It had been a long time since someone had called him mentally retarded. When he was young, Zheng yuluo often called him mentally retarded to mu duo and the others. How did he feel back then?
Sigh, my memory isntplete, I cant remember clearly anymore.
In any case, he would definitely be unhappy. He used to hate people calling him mentally retarded just because his name had the word wisdom in it.
He and his brother were clearly abination of the word wise.
Jing Zhi grabbed an orange and threw it at Jin Xins head, but thetter caught it quickly and said,One day, when your life is ruined by her, youll know that all love and affection are just illusions. Only the money and power in your own hands are the most real, because they will never betray you.
Jing Zhi suddenlyughed,Jin, you might not know this, but killing me is as difficult as ascending to heaven! Im sure Ill live to a hundred years old. You, on the other hand, should be less worried and enjoy life, or else you wont live long.
Jin Xin didnt take Jing Zhis words seriously. It was easy to kill a man.
Jing Zhi wasnt an alien. Human life was fragile, and it was possible that he would die from an illness.
He refused to give up and continued to persuade Jing Zhi to return to the entertainment industry. He was even willing to live in Jing Zhis house, cook, wash clothes, and clean for Jing Zhi.
A few dayster, Jing Zhi packed all his clothes into two big suitcases and said to Jin Xin,Jin, lets go!
Jin Xin, who was wearing an apron and holding a cabbage in his arms, was stunned.Where are we going?
Youll know when you get there. Its a good ce. You wont regret it!
Youre going to Paris? Attending a fashion show?
Jin Xin threw away the cabbages and was so excited that he forgot to remove his apron. He grabbed Jing Zhis two suitcases andughed. Lets go, lets go! I definitely wont regret it!
Then, two extremely incongruous people appeared at the airport, valiantly and spiritedly walking towards the security check.
One of the two men was tall and handsome. Even though there were onlookers screaming and taking photos, he still remained calm andposed.
As for the other one, she was glowing with health, wearing an apron and pajamas, dragging two suitcases, and nodding at the onlookers with a triumphant look. That expression wasparable to a President visiting abroad!
Jin Xin was still excited even after boarding the ne.
Then, he nced at the ticket in his hand. Destination: Los Angeles.
At the same time, the gentle and sweet voice of the air stewardesss bilingual broadcast rang out in the cabin. The destination was still Los Los Angeles.
Jin Xin turned to look at Jing Zhi, who was preparing to fall asleep. He mimicked Tang Yiyis tone and said carefully,My idol, where are we going?
She looked like a wife who was about to run away with her lover!
Jing Zhi immediately got goosebumps.Old Jin, dont talk like Tang Yiyi without her face, itll cost you your life! Were going to Los Angeles are you illiterate or deaf? The air stewardess has already said it several times!
Youre not going to Paris?
Who said were going to Paris?
What are you going to Los Angeles for? Was it because Hollywood was there? Youre going to shoot a blockbuster?
Jing Zhi patted Jin Xins shoulder and consoled him in a gentle tone, which was rarely seen. Dont be afraid. Its just killing people. Its not much different from a blockbuster. Your top priority now is to practice your English. Otherwise, itll make me look like Im not worth it!
Even when the nended, Jin Xin still felt like he was in a dream!
Kill? He had never even killed a chicken in his life!
What happened to the fashion show?
Maybe Jing Zhi really dide to Los Angeles to film spy movies?
Jin Xin and Jing Zhi moved into a vi that was even more luxurious than his own in A city. The vi was almost a thousand square meters in size, with a swimming pool, a garden, and all sorts of training grounds.
The vi was spotless. The Filipino maids inside stood in two rows and smiled at Jing Zhi. They greeted him in broken English and bowed at a 90-degree angle.Sir, wee home!
Jin Xins luggage was quickly taken over by the Filipino maid. He looked at the magnificent Pce-like vi and the well-organized servants, and shook his head.No, no, no, this must be a movie! If Jing Zhi was so rich, he wouldnt have been unable to afford a pair of underwear.
He followed Jing Zhi into the vi as if he was sleepwalking.
Sit anywhere, Jing Zhi said.
Jin Xin sat down on the luxurious sofa uneasily.Oh!
You can choose any room upstairs,
Oh!
Tell the servant what you want to eat. Eat whatever you want.
Oh!
Im going out for a while. I havent seen my parents in a long time. Im going to visit them. You can have fun as you like.
Oh!
Jin Xin didnt recover from his dazed state until Jing Zhi left. He jumped up from the sofa.Mom and dad? Jing Zhi has parents?
When Jing Zhi returned home at midnight, Jin Xin was still waiting for him.
Jin Xin was stunned when he saw who it was.Who are you?
Apart from his face, the mans figure, height, and clothes were all the same as Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi rolled his eyes and gulped down a ss of water.Jin, you dont recognize me anymore?
Jing Zhi? Jin Xin widened his eyes in shock.
Yes, its me.
Why does your appearance look different?!
Oh, an assassin cant use his real face, so Im wearing a fake human skin mask. Do you want one? Ill make one for youter.
Jin Xins eyes almost popped out of their sockets.Killer Killer?
Chapter 1300
Chapter 1300: Please spare my life, great hero
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhis smile was charming,are you scared? Dont worry, I wont kill you.
Jin Xin sat there with his eyes wide open, unable to speak for a long time.
Talking to apletely unfamiliar face and a familiar voice, this was as strange as it could get!
Didnt this scene only appear in movies?
Jing Zhis poprity had skyrocketed because he had taken on the role of a heartless killer.
You must be joking, right? Although there are assassins, theyre not as handsome as you are, and So brazen, right?
Jing Zhi pointed at his face and said,if I was really that brazen, would I need to wear a mask? This kind of mask is not only expensive, but its also bad for the skin. Wearing it for a long time will disfigure you!
Jin Xin still didnt believe it. He had worked so hard to cultivate this artiste. Just a month ago, he was still a harmless young hunk with countless female fans. Now, he was told that he was an assassin. Who the hell was this guy kidding?
Jing Zhi saw that Jin Xin didnt believe him, so he quickly pulled out a gun and fired a shot at a vase in the distance without even aiming.
Jin Xin was already frightened when Jing Zhi pulled out his gun. When he heard the sound of the gunshot, his face turned as pale as a sheet of paper.
If he hadnt participated in many shooting scenes, he might have fainted from shock!
But Jing Zhi didnt care about his shock at all. He strode over to the vase and said nonchntly,You see, Im a very urate marksman.
Jin Xins face was pale as he raised his head. He saw a bouquet of lilies in the vase. The petals and leaves were intact, but the stamen of the tallest flower was missing.
Jin Xin looked at Jing Zhi in horror, the shock in his heart indescribable.
He didnt know how to shoot, nor did he know the profession of an assassin. However, many movies would capture sharpshooters scenes. It was impossible for ordinary people to hit a target from a long distance, because they couldnt even see the target!
The shooting scenes in the movie were either edited in post-production or professional shooters were found as body doubles.
But even the most professional shooter couldnt reach Jing Zhis level of uracy.
Jing Zhis Vi covered arge area and the living room was so spacious that it felt empty. The vase of flowers was at least fifty meters away from Jing Zhi.
He didnt even need to aim, and he hit the tiny stamen?
Jin Xins legs were shaking!
Oh my God, he had actually lived for so long under the hands of an assassin!
B-b-b-big Hero, please spare me! Put the gun down and lets talk this out!
Jing Zhi burst outughing. He put the flowers on the table and sat downzily on the sofa opposite Jin Xin. Then he threw the gun at Jin Xin, who was so scared that he almost peed himself on the spot.
This is for you. Take it for self-defense. North America isnt peaceful. You should shoot when you need to, or youll be the first to die.
Jin Xins entire body trembled as he held the gun. He felt as if he had suffered ten thousand points of damage today!
Shoot?
Kill?
OhNO!
He was here to create stars, not to be a Bandit!
Hero, since youre so powerful, can you let go of a shrimp like me who cant even hold a gun? I want to go home!
Jing Zhi gave him a bright and handsome smile.We can t!
Jin Xin wanted to cry but had no tears. He had really boarded a pirate ship!
He was doing well in A city. Why did he have toe to such a far ce and put his head at the muzzle of a gun?
Alright, dont look like you have nothing to live for anymore. Youll like this ce very soon. Its much more open here than A city. I guarantee that youll live like an Emperor!
However, half a monthter, Jin Xin copsed!
Jing, youre trying to fool me! I dont want to be with a murderer like you, send me back to A city!
Jing Zhi took off his blood-stained rubber gloves and said unhurriedly,Your adaptability is too poor. Isnt it just dissecting a person? Do you have to vomit like this? My sister-inw, a little girl, is a hundred times better than you, and you still have the cheek to be a man!
Jin Xin tried hard to divert his attention. This kind of thing was rare, even in movies!
You have a sister-inw? A little girl?
Dont even think about my sister-inw, or my brother will kill you.
You have an older brother? Jin Xin asked, puzzled.
Of course! Where else would I get a sister-inw?
Jin Xin was speechless. He had thought Jing Zhi was an orphan!
Not only did he have both parents, but he also had a brother and sister-inw!
But why hadnt he seen a single one of them?
Jing Zhi was a popr star in China, but none of his family had ever shown up. Did they all live in the United States?
What do your parents do for a living, then? Jin Xin asked cautiously.
My dad is a doctor.
Oh my, thats a pretty good profession!
Jin Xin felt that Jing Zhi came from a well-off family.
My mother is an assassin, the worlds number one assassin.
Aiyo, Im going to die!
Jin Xins teeth chattered. He had always known that Jing Zhis profession as an assassin was abnormal, but it turned out to be a hereditary profession!
Your Your brother isnt an assassin too, is he?
Did he fall into an assassin camp?
No wonder Jing Zhi dared to tell him about his familys situation. He thought that even if he knew, he wouldnt dare to say a word.
If he said it, his head would fall off at any moment!
God, Zheng yuluo, old Jin is going to be killed by you!
If it werent for you, Jing Zhi would still be a star in A city, and Jin Xin would be the most valuable manager in A city!
Jing Zhi thought of his brother and shook his head.No, my brother is not a killer.
Jing Rui had been forced to be a killer for him, but now he had returned to his normal life.
Jin Xin heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this. However, when he saw the corpse in front of them, he began to vomit again.
In North America, human lives were worthless. There were shootings every day. It was too scary!
On the other side, Jing Zhi was washing the pile of stuff he had taken from the corpses stomach. Jin Xin saw a dazzling luster.
This is A diamond?!
Were rich!Jing Zhi grinned.
Jin Xins vomiting finally subsided a lot. Looking at the small pile of dazzling diamonds, he suddenly felt that killing people and robbing them was really the fastest way to make money!
With so many diamonds, it was enough to spend for a few lifetimes!
However, Jin Xin was a timid man. He said worriedly,Since this person has swallowed the diamond, he must havee from a shady background, right? If we just take it away like this, we wont end up like him, being killed and robbed, right?
Jing Zhi patted Jin Xins shoulder approvingly, put away the diamond, and walked out. Thats right, this person killed someone else to get the diamond. Just wait and see, the owner of the diamond will soone to find you. Haha, let the storme harder!
Chapter 1301
Chapter 1301: Just die like this
Trantor: 549690339
Jin Xin didnt know whether the storm would be fierce or not, but he knew that the bullets wereing!
In a weeks time, they had been chased by more than a dozen groups of people!
It was too terrifying!
It was too scary!
Jin Xin felt that his heart would explode before the bullet could prate his body!
This was ying with his life!
Jing Zhi, cant you just throw the diamond away? We dont need it anymore. Come back to A city with me and continue to be celebrities. We can film a few more shows and take on a few more endorsements. We can still buy a lot of diamonds!
Bullshit! It wasnt easy for me to snatch this, Id rather eat it all than throw it away!
Alright, you eat it. If you eat it, youll end up like the person you killed, having his stomach cut open and the diamond taken out!
Jin Xins face was covered in tears. If Zheng yuluo were to appear in front of him, he would definitely teach this girl a lesson!
Look at what kind of life he and Jing Zhi are living!
If it hadnt been for Jing Zhis amazingbat ability, they would have died thousands of times.
But what about Zheng yuluo?
Not only did she not quit the entertainment industry, but she was also working hard to take on all kinds of dramas. Although they were all small roles, it also proved that she was slowly climbing up!
Jin Xin gritted his teeth in hatred. Suddenly, a bullet hit his arm, and he screamed in pain.
Jing Zhi, on the other hand, was also shot, but he didnt make a sound. He was still breathing steadily as he fired at the enemy.
Wherever the bullets passed, the opponents fell one by one.
None of the bullets missed!
If it wasnt for the fact that the timing wasnt right, Jin Xin would have jumped up and apuded, praising him for being a sharpshooter.
Time passed, and months slipped away.
It waste autumn in A city, in a scenic resort. The Maple leaves were in full swing, and there was a kind of brilliance that was about to be destroyed.
Zheng yuluo was wearing a light purple silk dress and walking by the spring, waiting for the crew to start work.
She had indeed received a lot of small roles recently, and even received advertisements and endorsements. She was making more and more money.
In the acting industry, there were many times when filming wasnt very profitable. Even if there was money, it was really the hard work of waking up early and workingte at night. In the middle of winter, not only did they have to jump into cold water to act out an emotional scene, but they also had to ignore their own periods and endure the cold to eat snow cakes.
Because it was easy to produce mist when speaking in winter, when one ate a piece of Snow Cake and swallowed it, the mouth would be ice cold, and the mist would note out when speaking.
Zheng yuluo finally understood why Jing Zhi didnt want her to be an actress after all the suffering.
He had probably experienced the hardships and knew that the actress had it even harder, so he had stopped her.
It was faster and easier to earn money by taking on endorsements and shooting advertisements.
However, it was difficult for celebrities who were not famous to get a good endorsement. Zheng yuluo did not know what was going on, but many big brands had approached her to be their spokesperson one after another.
She had a guess in her heart, but she didnt know if it was correct.
If so, she would be very happy.
Todays scene was a love scene, so it would not be too hard. There would only be a scene where she fell into the water. Zheng yuluo had already made enough preparations, and she had slowly gotten used to it.
However, she wasnt used to Jing Zhis disappearance.
Once again, he had disappeared from her life.
Zheng yuluo didnt know where he had gone. There was no trace of him in city A. She had asked Shuyin, but Shuyin said she didnt know either.
He left without saying goodbye. He didnt even tell his own brother and sister-inw where he was going.
Zheng yuluo instinctively felt that Jing Zhi had returned to North America.
Her heart was empty, and she had wanted to go to North America to find him more than once.
However, she was also extremely afraid.
Zheng yuluo also realized that she didnt seem to bring good luck to Jing Zhi at all. As long as she appeared by Jing Zhis side, he would definitely get into trouble.
She didnt dare to do things as she pleased anymore.
She would rather endure the pain of separation than let him fall into a situation of istion and helplessness because of her.
If separating was the best thing for Jing Zhi, Zheng yuluo felt that she should stay away from him.
Maybe she was just overthinking it. Jing Zhi had probably already hated her to the core after seeing her in such a sorry state the other day.
Even she herself hated herself. She even felt that all men were especially disgusting!
During filming, once there were intimate scenes, Zheng yuluo could not ept it.
This had also directly caused her to miss out on the important roles.
It had never been important to Zheng yuluo whether she could be famous or not. She was still in the industry only because she was too lost.
Without Jing Zhi, she had lost her purpose in life. She had lost all color and liveliness.
It was only when she was acting that she would adjust her emotions and be more lively in order to fit into the role.
One wrong step led to many more wrong steps.
Ever since the mistake she made when she was eight years old, Zheng yuluo felt that she had never done anything right.
The crew started work very soon. After the main characters went on stage, it was Zheng yuluos turn.
She was ying the role of the male leads ex-girlfriend, and this scene was actually the male leads memory.
She followed the script and walked step by step, then fell into the cold Spring water expressionlessly.
The water wasnt actually deep, but he had to act like it was.
In other words, after she fell into the water and made a symbolic struggle, she could no longer show her head.
After that, she would drown, and her scenes would officially end in this drama.
Zheng yuluos entire body was soaked in the water. Her eyes were closed, and she could not breathe. She could not hear any sound, and she seemed to have lost all her senses.
The feeling of suffocation came, and someone seemed to say cut, but Zheng yuluo didnt care.
She thought, just die like this!
It would be nice to be Jing Zhis ex-girlfriend if she could be like the one in the show.
At the very least, she could leave a trace of happiness in his heart after she died, and he would be more attached to her.
He might be like the male lead, keeping her in a corner of his heart, bing a taboo that no one else could touch. He would only slowly forget her when he met a woman he truly loved.
The will to live was slowly dissipating. Zheng yuluo was a little reluctant, but she also felt a little relieved.
In her next life, she would never send Jing Zhi away with her own hands. She wanted to hold him tight when he was young and arrange an arranged marriage with him.
Didnt her father say that Jing Yiran wanted Jing Zhi to marry her or his sister when they had just had Jing Zhi?
They should have. If they were engaged, her father wouldnt be able to go back on his word, and Jing Zhi would continue to see her as his wife. Their rtionship would probably be much sweeter.
Zheng yuluo heard the screams and shouts, but she felt that it was too noisy. She wanted to sleep.
She wanted to sleep in Jing Zhis warm arms.
He had not hugged her properly for a long time!
Tears welled up in Zheng yuluos eyes, and they melted with the spring water and disappeared.
Chapter 1302
Chapter 1302: Critical illness
Trantor: 549690339
In a small vi in North America, Jing Zhi kept refreshing the internal system of the assassin organization, looking for missions that he could take on.
He wouldnt ept simple orders. First, it didnt earn him much money, and second, it was easy to steal the jobs of the new killers in the killer organization.
The organization was now under Jing Zhis management. Although he didnt have to do everything himself, he was more and more responsible in managing it. He also paid attention to the status of the killers inside.
He didnt need to be an actor, he didnt need to act. He could be an assassin and kill to his hearts content. Jing Zhis fighting spirit waspletely unleashed.
The virus had affected his genes, and his genes had changed his temperament.
Now, he was bing more and more indifferent, just like the little deer in the past, and his feelings were beginning to quietly disappear.
Other than a certain woman in the depths of his heart, it was already very difficult for him to have any emotional fluctuations.
Jin Xin, who was standing beside him, tried to persuade him.Jing Zhi, can you stop taking on missions? Dont we have enough money to spend? The diamonds we robbedst time are still there. Sell them and we can travel around the world!
Jin Xin hadpletely given up on Jing Zhis career as an actor.
He had witnessed Jing Zhis power and his outstandingbat skills. He deeply felt that it was a waste of Jing Zhis talent to be an actor.
With Jing Zhis current wealth, he didnt need to suffer as an actor anymore. He could live a good life as he pleased.
Its too dangerous to do missions. Although the people you killed werent good people, those desperadoes fought to the death. Youre weak and youll easily be at a disadvantage.
Jin Xin had nowpletely regarded himself as Jing Zhis man. He had nned for Jing Zhi with all his heart and made ns for him, and it was because of this that he knew Jing Zhis greatest secret.
His blood was poisonous.
But Jin Xin wasnt afraid. He was getting older, and he hadnt married yet. He didnt have any children either, and Jing Zhi was like half a son to him. All he wanted was to make Jing Zhis life better.
Fighting and killing all day long was not a good thing!
Most of the orders epted by an assassin organization were difficult. Many people were full of evil deeds and had a lot of criminal records. Such people had a strong sense of self-protection, and usually had a lot of people to protect.
It was sometimes very difficult to kill a target.
Not all targets could be killed with a single bullet like in the movies.
Jing Zhi finally found a difficult mission in the system and epted it immediately.
After receiving the mission, he felt a little better and finally said,I have a use for the diamond, so I wont sell it. Are you short of money?
Jing Zhi took out a card from a drawer and threw it in front of Jin Xin.Spend as much as you want.
Jin Xin didnt know whether tough or cry,I dont need money! Im just concerned about you, can you not always use money to send me away!
Why was their conversation so strange!
Those who didnt know would think that he was acting coquettishly with Jing Zhi and that he was Jing Zhis mistress.
Just thinking about it made him shiver!
Jin Xin shivered, then went to browse the entertainment news.
Even in North America, he still maintained his old habit of paying attention to the entertainment industry.
It couldnt be helped. It had almost be his instinct. If he didnt watch entertainment news for a day, he would feel that something was missing. Sometimes, when a big piece of news happened and he didnt see it on the day, he would feel that he had missed the whole world!
For example, there was a report on an ident in the entertainment industry yesterday. An actress was acting in a scene where she fell into the water, which caused her to suffocate and fall unconscious. She was now being rescued with all her might.
In fact, actors often had idents during filming, but they were usually minor injuries that were not life-threatening.
It was rare to see someones life hanging by a thread like this, and it was also very concerning.
This incident immediately became the headline of the entertainment news, and the news kept following the rescue situation of the actress.
The actresss name had not been revealed on the news yesterday, but today, Jin Xin saw the name Zheng yuluo as soon as he opened the news.
Zheng yuluo?
The unconscious person was actually Zheng yuluo?
Jing Zhi, Zheng yuluo is in trouble!
Jing Zhis entire body stiffened. He stared at Jin Xin with a sharp gaze and said coldly,Whats wrong?
She was filming the scene of her falling into the water, but because she held her breath in the water for too long, her brain was damaged, and shes unconscious now! The inte says that shes in a critical situation!
In fact, the news said that the doctor had already given Zheng yuluos parents a notice of critical illness and asked them to go back to prepare for their funeral.
Jing Zhi grabbed Jin Xins phone and quickly read the news. He closed his eyes in pain.
They had only been apart for a short time, and she was in trouble again?
He had already left the entertainment industry, so why was she still unwilling to leave? Why did he still have to film?
Did she really want to be an actress?
Jing Zhis heart ached so much that he even suspected that there was something wrong with his body.
He thought he could give up on her, he thought he could forget her.
It turned out that it was impossible!
Her delicate appearance and the way she cried had long been deeply engraved in his mind.
If she were to disappear from this world, Jing Zhi felt that he would lose all of his emotions and be a real killing machine.
Jing Zhi opened his eyes and sat back in front of hisputer. He reopened the task system and canceled the task he had just received.
He picked up his windbreaker, put on the ck baseball cap he always wore, and slowly walked out.
Jin Xin hurriedly followed behind him and asked in surprise,Its so early. The sun has just risen. Where are you going?
Jing Zhi walked out of the vi and got into his car. When Jin Xin got in, he said, Ill drive, you book two tickets.
Where are you going?! Jin Xin couldnt believe it.
A city.
Are you crazy? Why did he have to go back? Didnt you break up with her? Theres nothing between you two now, and youre not a doctor. You wont be able to save her even if you run all the way back!
It wasnt that Jin Xin didnt want to go back to A city, but he thought that, ording to Jing Zhis temper, he wouldnt go back to A city just to see Zheng yuluo.
The crew that had caused Zheng yuluo to fall into aa would probably be in trouble from top to bottom!
That was in China. If he killed someone, he would really ruin himself. That was not an environment where guns could be used at will like in foreign countries!
More importantly, the news had already made it clear that the main responsibility for Zheng yuluos ident was not on the crew.
The film crew had originally controlled the underwater scene very well, but when they called Zheng yuluo out of the water, she seemed to have not heard them and sank to the bottom of the water.
The spring water was not deep. If Zheng yuluo stood up, the water would only reach her waist.
Even if she didnt stand up, she shouldnt have drowned since she had learned to swim half a year ago.

At that time, the film crews cameras were recording the entire process, so the incident couldnt be any clearer.
However, it was precisely because it was clear that many people were puzzled.
Zheng yuluo could have been fine. Falling into the water and dying was just a plot in the script. Why did she follow the plot?
Although her body was weak, she was very young and did not have any hidden diseases.
The doctor did a full body examination on her and did not find anything wrong with her body.
There was no illness, but his vital signs were disappearing rapidly.
The diagnosis given by a few highly-respected old experts from big hospitals was very consistent. Zheng yuluo did not have any desire to live. She was forcing herself into a state of death.
In this era, entertainment news was all over the ce. Zheng yuluos case was said to be in many versions. Some people believed the experts diagnosis, while some scoffed at it.
After all, experts could sometimes be experts in disguise.
Jin Xin didnt know if Jing Zhi had read the news or not, but he saw Jing Zhi driving at a high speed towards the airport. He could only sigh and book a ne ticket with his phone.
It was good to let Jing Zhi go back. Otherwise, he would regret it for the rest of his life if he couldnt even see Jing Zhi onest time.
Family MUs Hospital in A city was brightly lit, but it was so solemn that it made people feel depressed.
After the eleventh detailed examination of Zheng yuluo, Mu Qing said to Zheng Jing,I dont think we can make it past tonight. Elder Zheng, you
Youre f * cking talking nonsense! My daughter is perfectly fine. Theres nothing wrong with her. Why cant she make it through tonight? Quickly give her an injection, give her medicine, and wake her up!
The veins on Zheng Jings forehead were bulging. He grabbed Mu Qings cor with both hands, as if he was going to fight Mu Qing with his life.
In just one night, more than half of his hair had turned white, and even his appearance had aged by nearly ten years. His eyes were bloodshot, his voice was hoarse, and his lips were dry and bleeding because he had not drunk or eaten for a long time.
If it had been any other time, Mu Qing would have been very angry when Zheng Jing yelled at him. He would have stabbed him with the needle and made him suffer for a day and a night.
But today, he just let Zheng Jing vent his anger without any exnation or anger.
The Twin daughters were both in their Prime. If one of them died, it would be a devastating blow to Zheng Jing.
Zheng Lun had passed out long ago and was still unconscious.
Zheng Yuwei was a girl. Not only did she have to hide the incident from her grandparents and sister, but she also had to take care of her mother and sister. She also had to stop her father from fighting with the crew.
When Zheng Jing was angry, it was Zheng Yuwei who stopped him.
Dad, dont be like this. If uncle mu can save my sister, he will definitely do so. If it wasnt for uncle mu, sister wouldnt even be alive now.
Zheng Yuweis personality was very different from her sister s. She was cheerful and lively, able to endure hardships and withstand pressure, and never shed tears easily. But now, she was crying so much that she was a tearful person.
There were many telepathic connections between twins.
She had a good rtionship with her sister, and that feeling was even stronger.
After a day and a night, the feeling in the depths of her heart was slowly disappearing. She could deeply feel that her sister was leaving this world.
No one could understand the pain of a life being forcibly stripped away from their hearts!
However, Zheng Yuwei knew that she could not copse no matter what. Her parents needed her, and her sister needed her care. She would not give up until thest moment.
She cried and begged Mu Qing.Uncle mu, please give my sister another round of acupuncture. She is afraid of pain. Maybe it will work if you put more needles in deeper.
As a matter of fact, Mu Qing had tried both Chinese and Western medicine methods, but they had little effect.
Only acupuncture had a slightly better effect. Zheng yuluos life hadsted until now because she had undergone acupuncture three times.
Perhaps it was really as Zheng Yuwei had said, Zheng yuluo was very afraid of pain, so every time she was undergoing acupuncture, her vital signs would fluctuate a little.
However, the third acupuncture was not very effective. If she did it again, Zheng yuluos life would not be extended.
Life was rted to ones desire to live. Some people had a strong desire to live, so they could usually survive the dangerous period.
If some people didnt want to live, they would still be in danger even if there was no danger period.
Mu Qing had been a doctor for many years and had seen all kinds of cases.
Zheng yuluos current state was very simr to those whomitted suicide due to depression.
Even though acupuncture was a waste of time and energy, Mu Qing still agreed.
It didnt matter if he had to work hard. As long as he could give this family a littlefort, it was worth it no matter how tired he was.
Time passed by. When Mu Qing was done with the acupuncture, it was already past 10 pm.
He left in exhaustion, leaving Zheng Jing and Zheng Yuwei by Zheng yuluos side in silence and pain.
They hadnt slept for a day and a night and couldnt eat anything. Zheng Lun had been in aa because of the grief. The father and daughter had been running around.
Zheng yuluo was in the intensive care unit while Zheng Lun was in the general ward.
Zheng Jing sat there for more than an hour, then got up and went to check on his wife in the general ward.
Zheng Lun was fine. She just couldnt ept the fact that her daughter was about to die.
There was a caretaker in the ward. Zheng Jing went to see her every hour and woulde back to take care of his daughter if he had nothing to do.
When he went over, Zheng Lun woke up and burst into tears in his arms.
Zheng Jing had note back for a long time. Zheng Yuwei knew that her mother must have woken up. She let out a sigh of relief.
She held Zheng yuluos cold hands. Although she was tired and sleepy, she did not dare to close her eyes. She was afraid that if she fell asleep, her sister would not be there when she woke up.
After some time, the door to the intensive care unit opened, and a tall figure walked in.
At first, Zheng Yuwei thought it was her father, but she didnt go to the military school for nothing. She was very good at distinguishing peoples auras, so she quickly noticed that something was wrong.
She suddenly raised her head, and a handsome and devilish face came into her sight.
Zheng Yuwei stood up at once, her eyes red and her voice hoarse.Get out! My sister doesnt wee you here!
Jing Zhi stood still and didnt move. He didnt look at Zheng Yuwei, who was like an angry little lion, as if he didnt hear her at all.
His eyes were fixed on Zheng yuluo, who was lying on the bed with an oxygen mask on.

Chapter 1304: The only chance of survival

She looked even slimmer than when they had separated. Her chin was sharp and her face was as pale as paper. She was so weak that she looked as if she would be carried away by the wind at any time.
Her eyes were closed and her breathing was weak. Just like what the news said, she was slowly walking towards death.
Jing Zhis heart was torn apart. It was so painful that he had difficulty breathing.
He wanted to walk to Zheng yuluos side and hug her, but he was stopped by Zheng Yuwei, who was full of thorns.
Get lost! Youre not allowed to get close to my sister! Youve killed her. Are you satisfied now that youve taken your revenge?
Zheng Yuwei didnt know about Zheng yuluos suicidal thoughts after she fell into the water, but she felt that her sistersa had something to do with Jing Zhis departure.
Only she, as Zheng yuluos sister, knew how much Zheng yuluo loved Jing Zhi.
So, she pushed the me onto Jing Zhi without any hesitation.
If Jing Zhi hadnte, Zheng Yuwei wouldnt have hated him so much. After all, Jing Zhi wasnt the one to me for her sisters drowning.
However, the moment he appeared, Zheng Yuwei couldnt help but want to tear this person in front of her apart!
However, Jing Zhi just waved his hand nonchntly and pushed Zheng Yuwei, who was baring her fangs and ws, to the ground.
He didnt seem to have used much strength, but Zheng Yuwei felt as if she had hit a mountain. She fell heavily to the ground and was in so much pain that she couldnt get up for a long time.
Jing Zhi, dont be so arrogant! My parents are in the hospital right now. Hurry up and leave. Dont get close to my sister!
Zheng Yuwei had thought that Zheng Jing should be back by now and Zheng Lun woulde to see Zheng yuluo as soon as she woke up. But they had note yet and she had no idea what was going on.
As a matter of fact, Jing Zhi had already taken Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun into consideration.
The biggest obstacle ining to Zheng yuluos ce was not the crying Zheng Yuwei, but Zheng yuluos parents.
In this situation, Zheng Jing would not let him get close to Zheng yuluo even if he had to fight with him.
So, Jing Zhi left the two of them to Jin Xin.
Under Jing Zhis influence, knocking someone unconscious was a piece of cake for Jin Xin.
He had been through countless bloody battles and was no longer the rookie who would tremble at the sight of a gun.
As Zheng Yuwei spoke, she was already crying uncontrobly, Didnt you leave her? Whats the use ofing back now! The doctor said that she cant make it through the night!
Jing Zhis body stiffened. He sat on the edge of the bed and slowly picked up Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo had no idea what was happening outside.
In her consciousness, she only felt that she was walking alone in the darkness.
The light was getting further and further away from her, but she didnt have a trace of nostalgia. The darkness and loneliness in the distance attracted her and made her slowly approach.
In the darkness, an angry and sorrowful voice suddenly sounded,Zheng yuluo!
Who was it?
Who was calling her?
This voice sounded a little familiar.
Zheng yuluo, wake up! Quickly wake up!
Zheng yuluo, did you not hear me? Im telling you to wake up, youre not allowed to die!
Zheng yuluo thought about it for a long time, but she couldnt remember whose voice it was.
Her consciousness was already in a mess.
However, this voice could inexplicably make her heart palpitate and move.
She suddenly turned around in the darkness and looked at the light that was getting further and further away from her.
The sound seemed to being from that direction, right?
The owner of the voice, dont go, wait for me, Ill go see you again!
Jing Zhi held Zheng yuluos body and kept roaring. The tears in his eyes fell on Zheng yuluos face drop by drop.
A tear slowly fell from the corner of Zheng yuluos eye.
Even though she was unconscious, she still felt an inexplicable pain in her heart. She clearly didnt remember this person, but when she heard this voice, her heart immediately reacted.
She wanted to open her eyes to look at him, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not do it.
Jing Zhi was shaking Zheng yuluos body crazily, so much so that the oxygen mask she was wearing was removed.
Zheng Yuwei stopped him with a scream,Jingzhi, are you crazy?! Let go of my sister, youre going to kill her!
She was about to fight with Jing Zhi for her sisters body when she suddenly realized that her sister was crying!
Her outstretched hand stopped in mid-air.
Zheng Yuwei looked at Jing Zhi in disbelief. Was her sister reacting because she heard his voice?
It had been two days since Zheng yuluo fell into aa. During these two days, her breathing had gradually weakened. No matter how they called her, injected her with injections, and administered drugs, she had no reaction at all!
Her life had only been extended by Mu Qing.
Perhaps Jing Zhi was her sisters only chance at survival.
Zheng Yuwei didnt go forward again. She let Jing Zhi hold Zheng yuluo tightly and burst into tears.
She had never seen Jing Zhi like this.
He had always been aloof and cold.
She had thought that Jing Zhi was just taking revenge on her sister. He was such a womanizer that he definitely didnt love her sister. Even if he did like her a little, it would be because he was greedy for her fresh and beautiful body.
But now, Zheng Yuwei clearly realized that Jing Zhi loved her sister too.
The pain of losing ones true love could not be faked no matter how good ones acting skills were.
That kind of grief was only understood by those who had also lost their loved ones.
Jing Zhi sat in silence with Zheng yuluo in his arms for most of the night. Zheng Yuwei finally knew that something must have happened to her parents.
She knew that Jing Zhi wouldnt hurt her sister, so she wasnt worried about what would happen to her sister in his arms.
If tonight was thest time of her sisters life, she believed that her sister would be willing to stay in Jing Zhis arms.
If she could leave this world in Jing Zhis arms, her sister would be happy.
What if his sister felt happy and didnt want to leave?
Zheng Yuwei walked out of the intensive care unit and went to Zheng Luns room. Then she saw her parents lying on the bed side by side, unconscious.
Next to him sat a middle-aged man with sleepy eyes.
Zheng Yuwei recognized him. He was Jing Zhis manager, Jin Xin.
After Jing Zhi retired from the entertainment industry, Jin Xin, who had discovered his career, also disappeared.
What did you do to my parents?
Zheng Yuwei stared at Jin Xin with an unfriendly look. If anything happened to her parents, she would fight Jin Xin to the death right now.
She couldnt beat Jing Zhi, but she could beat his manager.
She didnt like Jing Zhi, not even his manager.
When Jin Xin first saw her, he was stunned, thinking that Zheng yuluo had woken up, but he immediately realized that this person should be Zheng yuluos twin sister, Zheng Yuwei.

Chapter 1305: Awakening

Zheng yuluo had long hair, but the girl in front of her who looked exactly like her had short hair.
Moreover, if one paid a little attention, they would notice that the two sisters hadpletely different temperaments, so it was easy to distinguish them.
Its nothing. Dont worry, the two of them are just sleeping. I dont have any grudges with your parents. Seeing them in so much pain, especially your father, who is holding on without rest, if this goes on, your sister will not die, but your father will! Im doing a good deed. Otherwise, your dad wouldnt sleep even if he was beaten to death.
Zheng Yuwei nced at her parents, who were breathing steadily, and said nothing.
How could she not know that her father should rest!
Thats good too, let daddy sleep for a while!
When the sky had just brightened, Mu Qing brought mu Sen to Zheng yuluos ce to check.
ording to his estimation, Zheng yuluo could only hold on until now.
In the intensive care unit, there was only Zheng yuluo, who was lying there, and Zheng Yuwei, who sat with her.
Weiwei, where is your father? Mu Qing asked curiously.
Zheng Yuwei raised her head and said softly,Dad might have been too tired and fell asleep in moms ward. I saw that he had been working too hard these two days, so I didnt wake him up.
Mu Qing still had some doubts, but he didnt think too much about it. Maybe he was really too tired.
He nced at Zheng yuluo and saw that although her breathing was weak, she was still breathing.
The doubts in his heart grew.
He had been a doctor for so many years, and the error rate of his diagnosis was almost zero. Could he have made a mistake?
Mu Qing put his fingers on Zheng yuluos slender wrist and frowned.
The pulse was still weak, but it seemed to be different fromst night.
The human body was the mostplicated and precise instrument in the world. No matter how great a doctor was, he would not dare to say that he had studied the human body thoroughly, nor could he exin all living phenomena.
Miracles would happen asionally.
Mu Qing changed Zheng yuluos treatment n without any hesitation. He increased the dosage of the medicine and changed it to two more violent ones. He also gave her an electric shock.
By the time the sky turned bright, Zheng yuluos condition hadpletely stabilized.
Zheng Yuweis face was full of tears. She knelt down beside Mu Qing and hugged his leg.Uncle mu, thank you! My sisters heart rate has returned to normal. Shes saved!
It took Mu Qing a lot of effort to pull Zheng Yuwei up from the ground.
He smiled lovingly and said,I watched you two grow up. Its my duty to save luoluo. Shes finally out of danger now. Although I dont know why she suddenly has the will to live, as long as she subconsciously wants to live, with her young body condition, there is no problem at all.
Mu Senughed as well.Yuwei, dont cry. Quickly tell your parents this good news. They will be very happy when they wake up and hear this good news!
Zheng Yuwei wiped her tears and quickly left.
She walked too quickly, so focused on telling her parents the good news that she didnt notice the two people standing on the wall outside the door.
Jin Xin watched Zheng Yuwei leave in a hurry, then looked at Jing Zhi, who was standing beside him with an expressionless face, and said softly,Alright, Zheng yuluo wont die. Lets go!
He deeply felt that Zheng yuluos life was saved by Jing Zhi.
The news had been saying that Zheng yuluo would not survive, but things changed when Jing Zhi returned.
Others might not know, but Zheng Yuwei had been by Zheng yuluos side the entire time, so she should know.
Thats right, Zheng Yuwei did know.
She looked at her parents guarding her sister, crying tears of joy, but her heart was a little lost.
She didnt know if she should tell her parents about Jing Zhi. Her parents had never allowed her and her sister to get close to Jing Zhi.
For a long time, she had thought that Jing Zhi was a monster that would eat people.
But now, it was clearly because of him that his sisters condition had taken a turn for the better.
But Zheng Yuwei didnt dare to say anything. Her father would be furious if he knew that Jing Zhi had been here. He had always thought that Jing Zhi was the reason why his sister was in this state.
For Jing Zhis sake, her sister had ruined her own life.
In fact, Zheng Yuwei had vaguely guessed that this incident was not an ident, but man-made.
This person was none other than his sister herself.
In her sisters life, this was not the first time she hadmitted suicide.
It wasnt because her sister had a mental illness, but because she always felt that she had done something wrong. Jing Zhis disappearance had left her with an unprecedented sense of guilt and suffering, so she didnt have the face to continue living.
This time, it wasnt a matter of conscience. Jing Zhis disappearance had made her despair and she didnt want to live anymore.
Zheng Yuwei touched her chest and let out a sigh of relief.
That subtle telepathic connection was back. It was great!
Three dayster, Zheng yuluo woke up from hera.
Sister, youre awake!
Luoluo, youre finally better. You scared me!
Luoluo, if you continue to sleep, your mother and I will break down!
Zheng yuluo looked at the three people in front of her in confusion. For a long time, she couldnt react to who they were.
Her head was in a mess. Many people and things had be very blurry, and her head hurt badly.
She closed her eyes and opened them again, trying to search through her memories and recognize the person in front of her.
Dad, mom? Wei Wei?
Her tone was very uncertain and her voice was very weak, but the three people guarding her were ecstatic!
Mu Qing had told them that Zheng yuluo might have a short-term memory loss when she woke up after being in aa for a long time. He told them not to panic, and that her memory woulde back slowly after a few days of familiarization.
And now, Zheng yuluo obviously knew the three of them. The worst situation had not urred, so how could they not be happy?
Zheng Lun was the most emotional one. She was already crying in Zheng yuluos arms.
Zheng yuluo had just woken up, and her mind was in a mess. Her body was also very weak, so she onlysted for a while before she fell asleep.
She stayed in the hospital for a whole week before her parents took her home.
Zheng yuluos memory had been chaotic at first, but now, she was like a normal person. Her memory slowly came back, and she could no longer recognize the wrong person.
There was only one thing that Zheng yuluo felt that she had forgotten.
However, she did not know what she had forgotten.
Shey on the familiar bed and looked around the room. She took out a new box from her pocket.
The box was not eye-catching, but when it was opened, it was filled with expensive diamonds!
Zheng yuluo had already counted the diamonds countless times when no one was around. There were 19 in total.
Her birthday was the 9th of October.
Who had given her so many expensive and luxurious diamonds?
Chapter 1306
Chapter 1306: Ive forgotten you
Trantor: 549690339
Who was it that had secretly put diamonds in her clothes?
Who was it that didnt show up after giving such an expensive gift?
The diamond was very beautiful. Under the sun, it reflected a dazzling luster that went straight into peoples hearts.
Zheng yuluo did not know much about diamonds, but she felt that all the diamonds in the box were genuine and not fake.
She had not told anyone about the 19 diamonds.
She found it in her clothes when she woke up. At that time, her mind was in a mess, and she felt that all her memories seemed very distant. She couldnt even remember her parents and sister clearly, so she didnt say anything.
When she woke up, she didnt want to say it anymore.
She instinctively felt that this was a secret that belonged to her and should not be mentioned to anyone.
Zheng yuluo began to ask in a roundabout way.
Wei Wei, I feel like theres something wrong with my memory.
Sister, what are you talking about? theres nothing wrong with your memory! Zheng Yuweiughed. I remember that you were just a little dazed when you first woke up, but you got better after that!
Do I have any close friends?
Zheng Yuwei shook her head,no, I didn t! Youre the closest to me, but the rest of us dont have any rtionship!
Is there anyone important? Many people havee to see me these days, is there anyone else who hasnte?
Zheng Yuwei was a little stunned. Her sisters distress and confusion didnt seem fake, but who didnte? Who could be more important than family?
There was only one person!
Sister, theres nothing else. What shoulde, hase!
Those who shouldnt havee had alreadye!
We only have this many people in our family, sister! Besides, we dont have many friends. Have you forgotten?
Friend?
Zheng yuluo thought hard in her mind, but her head hurt, and she found nothing.
However, she felt that there was one person she had forgotten!
That was because she always felt empty. It was as if a part of her heart had been dug out. The pain was numbed by the anesthetic, but the gap was always there, making her feel ufortable.
Sigh, forget it. Maybe its not someone important?
Didnt she remember all the important people, such as her parents, her sister, her grandparents?
The day passed quickly. Zheng yuluo forgot what she had forgotten. She had a happy and lively day with her family, and she was in a good mood.
At night, she went to the closet to find her pajamas, wanting to change into them after taking a shower.
However, there were several mens clothes in her closet!
There were coats and sweaters of excellent quality in ck, gray, and coffee colors. One look and you could tell they were all for men!
Zheng yuluo turned her head subconsciously and looked at Zheng Yuwei, who was lying on her bed and ying with her phone.Wei Wei, whose clothes are these? Why would I have a mens coat in my cab? Who did it?
Zheng Yuweis fingers that were ying with her phone trembled, and the game level was over.
But she couldnt care less about the game at this moment!
His sister had actually forgotten about him!
She didnt even remember his clothes!
How was this possible?
She remembered everyone, so how could she have forgotten the person she loved the most!
Zheng yuluo touched the clothes, and a pain in the depths of her heart began to spread silently.
The pain in her heart gradually became stronger, and Zheng yuluos eyes unconsciously overflowed with tears.
Zheng yuluo was inexplicably shocked. She raised her hand and touched the corner of her eye. It was a little unbelievable!
Why was she crying?
She had a great time with her family today and was in a good mood. Why did she cry when she saw these clothes?
She tried her best to recall, but her memory of these clothes was nk!
There was no trace of the owner of the clothes in her mind!
Moreover, whenever she thought about this person, her brain would hurt as if she was being pricked by needles. It was so painful that she couldnt continue thinking about him!
Zheng Yuwei saw that her sister was crying and her face was frighteningly pale. She quickly threw her phone away, jumped out of bed quickly, and carried her sister to the bed.
She had received high-intensity physical training in the military school, so it was not a problem for her to carry a girl who weighed more than 90 pounds.
Sister, whats wrong? Are you feeling ufortable? Dont scare me! Lets go to the hospital!
Zheng yuluo took a while to recover before her head stopped hurting.
She patted Zheng Yuweis hand and said softly, Im fine. Dont make our parents unable to sleep well. We dont need to go to the hospital.
She looked at the clothes in the closet and asked again,Wei Wei, whose clothes are those?
Thats our dads clothes. Sister, dont you remember?Zheng Yuwei immediately said.
Zheng yuluo frowned and asked,dad? Why are his clothes in my closet? Besides, this doesnt look like something our dad would wear at his age.
Aiya, sister, it seems like you really dont remember!
Zheng Yuwei pretended to be rxed and smiled,Arent these the clothes we bought for dad? he thinks that the clothes we bought for him are too young and refused to wear them! Look, the size of the clothes, isnt it our dads size?
Luckily, a certain someone was almost as tall as Zheng Jing, otherwise he wouldnt have been able to lie.
Zheng Yuwei would never admit whose clothes it was!
Since Zheng yuluo had already forgotten about it, she should never think about it again!
Sister, dont me me. I cant watch you fall into the same quagmire as before. Let the past be in the past!
You should start a new life and not have any more trauma.
She didnt need to me herself for sending Jing Zhi to the bad guys. She should forget all the grudges and be a carefree girl.
Zheng Yuwei picked up the clothes and turned around to leave.
Zheng yuluo suddenly got out of bed and said softly,Dont take it away, Weiwei. Just leave it in my cab!
Zheng Yuwei was still smiling, but her smile was a little forced. She was afraid that these clothes would bring up her sisters memories again, so she quickly said,Forget it, lets just send it to our dad! This is our filial piety. Even if he doesnt like it, he still has to say he likes it!
She turned around and was about to leave when Zheng yuluo suddenly took a step forward and hugged one of the items. She begged Zheng Yuwei,Wei Wei, can you leave one for me? Just one! When you say youre going to take them away, my heart hurts so much, as if its been cut by a knife. Please leave one for me!
Zheng Yuwei looked at her sister, who was like an injured little beast, looking at her with wet eyes and speaking in an extremely humble tone. Somewhere in the depths of her heart, she suddenly exploded and the pain was difficult to suppress.
Even though her sister had lost her memory, she knew that she had once loved someone, and it was a love that was engraved in her bones and engraved in her heart.
That person had left an indelible mark on her sister.
Chapter 1307
Chapter 1307: Who exchanged whose life?
Trantor: 549690339
If she could, Zheng Yuwei thought that she would never fall in love with anyone in her life. She used to envy that kind of vigorous love, but now, she only felt that it was too heavy and painful.
To a certain extent, Jing Zhi had saved her sisters life. Perhaps she wouldnt have been able toe back without him.
After all, Mu Qing had already sent out the final notice of his death.
As long as his sister had a glimmer of hope, he would never say that he would not be able to make it through the night.
Zheng Yuweis heart softened a little, and she finally left a piece of clothing for Zheng yuluo.
She carried the rest and left, but Zheng yuluo held the gray coat and sat by the bed, touching it gently.
Zheng yuluo couldnt remember whose clothes it was, but she knew that it definitely didnt belong to Zheng Jing.
She rarely even bought her own clothes. It was Zheng Yuwei and her mother who bought them for her. When had she ever bought clothes for her father?
She rarely went shopping. She remembered this very clearly because she really did not like to go shopping.
Zheng yuluo buried her face in her clothes, and a voice deep in her heart asked,Why did I forget about you?
Even though she had forgotten someone and something, life still went on.
Moreover, perhaps because she had forgotten those pains, her personality had be more cheerful and she liked to smile more than before.
Her family didnt agree to her continuing to be an actress, but she didnt care and went back to university of X to study.
Half a yearter, Zheng yuluo fell in love with a boy who was good in all aspects.
The young man was a graduate student. He was a top student, good-looking, humorous, and considerate. He had a good rtionship with the opposite sex in school, but he only liked Zheng yuluo, which broke the hearts of the other female students.
The two of them had met each others parents. Although they did not say it out loud, their intention to get married was already very obvious.
A yearter, the 22-year-old Zheng yuluo graduated from University of X and entered society. She found afortable white-cor job and began a nine-to-five life.
At 7:45 A. M., Deng kun appeared in front of Zheng yuluos house on time and picked her up. He greeted her parents with a smile, then sent Zheng yuluo to her unit before going to his unit.
A colleague ran into Zheng yuluo this morning and teased her,Aiya, yuluo, your boyfriend is here to send you to work again! Shes so lucky, unlike us who have to take the bus to work! When are you guys getting married? Im going to attend the wedding!
Zheng yuluo smiled and didnt speak. Deng kun, who was next to her, touched Zheng yuluos soft long hair and said with a gentle expression,As for the marriage, Ill listen to luoluo. Shes still young, so theres no rush. Let her y for two more years!
Deng kun was six years older than Zheng yuluo. He was twenty-eight this year and was actually at the age where he should get married.
However, every time someone asked, he didnt look impatient at all.
Anyone with eyes could tell that Zheng yuluo had the final say between the two of them.
Being pampered by a man, and a tall, handsome, and rich one at that, Zheng yuluos female colleagues were all extremely jealous. However, Zheng yuluo still looked like she didnt take it to heart, which made many people grit their teeth.
It was not that Zheng yuluo did not take it to heart. At this moment, she was trying hard to endure Deng kuns touch, suppressing herself, and not embarrassing him in front of others.
However, Deng kun seemed to be unaware of it. Not only did he stroke her long hair, but he also held her in his arms. He smiled and said to her,Ill pick you up in the afternoon before leaving.
Not far away, there was a person who had been standing there quietly the whole time, taking in this scene with his eyes.
Zheng yuluo sensed something and turned to look. She found it strange that the other party was staring at her.
However, she didnt think much of it. Usually, when she walked on the road, people would look at her from time to time and recognize that she had yed a small role before.
She stomped away in her coffee-colored stiletto.
Jing Zhi, theyve left. Dont just stand there. Go back!
Jin Xin appeared by Jing Zhis side. He let out a deep sigh, then pulled Jing Zhi away.
Jing Zhi opened a bottle of wine when he got home. He took big sips.
Aiyo, stop drinking! Youll drink yourself to death sooner orter if you drink like this! You should at least eat something before drinking!
Jing Zhi was silent. He finished one bottle without a word, then opened another bottle and gulped it down.
By the time Jin Xin had finished preparing breakfast and brought it out, he was already drunk and had fallen asleep in a pile of wine bottles.
Jin Xin couldnt help but sigh.
How could he not be drunk? He had been drinking for the entire night!
Moreover, he drank like this every night. He didnt drink the good stuff, but the strongest ones that could quickly make him drunk.
Fortunately, Jing Zhi had earned enough money in North America. Otherwise, he wouldnt have been able to afford such a high expenditure.
Jin Xin wasnt in the mood for breakfast. He soaked a towel in warm water and wiped Jing Zhis face.
Silly child, is it worth it? Shes alive, but youre dead. Shes forgotten about you and doesnt recognize you anymore, so why are you still thinking about her?
Unfortunately, Jing Zhi couldnt hear her. Even if he could, he would pretend he couldnt hear her.
After returning from North America, Jing Zhi had not done anything but stay by Zheng yuluos side.
He was only willing to fall asleep when she woke up.
Jing Zhi, who had never been sick before, fell seriously ill. He always had a fever for no reason. His body temperature fluctuated abnormally and he was unprecedentedly weak.
It was not until Jing Rui took him home, sent him to the hospital, and spent half a month to get a blood transfusion for him that he slowly recovered.
After he recovered, he began to guard Zheng yuluo again.
He had watched her be cheerful, watched her start school, watched her fall in love with others, watched her talk about marriage with others.
Even Jin Xins heart ached for her, but Jing Zhi didnt give up. He still stayed by Zheng yuluos side every day.
Zheng yuluo was not very alert and had never noticed Jing Zhi. Even if she did, she would look at him strangely and unfamiliarly like she did today, then turn around and walk away.
Zheng Yuwei had noticed Jing Zhi a few times, but she had warned him not to get close to Zheng yuluo.
Jin Xin had once wanted to beat up the two sisters to vent his anger!
If it wasnt for Jing Zhi, would Zheng yuluo have survived?
Zheng yuluo hade back to life and forgotten about Jing Zhi, but Zheng Yuwei clearly knew the truth. Why didnt she say anything?
Ungrateful!
Women are all bad. Yesterday, they were in love with you, but tomorrow, they willpletely forget you. The day after, they will throw themselves into another mans arms!
He, Jin Xin, had made the right decision by not getting married!
The Zheng sisters, Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei, were not good people, and Deng kun was not a good person either!

Chapter 1308: Future son-inw of the Zheng family
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo must have been blind to fall for a pretty boy who didnt look like he was!
If his love for Zheng yuluo could bepared to one-ten-thousandth of Jing Zhi s, Jin Xin would be willing to cut off his head for Zheng yuluo to kick around like a ball!
Jin Xin scolded Zheng yuluo and Deng kun angrily. He looked down at Jing Zhi, who had lost a lot of weight, and suddenly understood why Jing Rui, as his brother, only paid attention to Jing Zhi behind his back and no longer interfered in his rtionship.
Jing Zhi was a stubborn man. He would never give up on something he had made up his mind on, no matter how difficult it was.
There was no use in stopping him.
Jing Zhi had been sleeping for the whole day. When he woke up in the evening, he was famished.
He had a special Constitution. Although he could endure hunger for a long time, hunger would make him feel very painful.
That was because it meant that the virus in his body was breaking down the normal cells in his body and providing him with enough energy to survive.
It didnt matter if it happened once or twice, but if it happened too many times, it would greatly reduce his lifespan.
Jin Xin handed Jing Zhi a cup of high-concentration protein powder and forced him to drink it. Only then did hisplexion improve.
Jing Rui had given him the protein powder. Shuyin had made it ording to Jing Zhis physical condition so that even if he refused to eat, a ss of it could provide him with energy for half a day and prevent him from overconsuming the normal cells in his body.
Jing Zhi, you should find someone to fall in love with. The best way to forget a person is to throw yourself into a new rtionship. Love can cure all pain, you must try it!
Jing Zhi took out a cigarette and slowly lit it. He took a deep puff and blew out the smoke. He didnt answer Jin Xins question.
To love someone, you need strength.
However, he didnt have the extra energy to love anyone now.
It waste at night. Jing Zhi finished his cigarette, stood up, and walked out of the vi.
Jin Xin followed him out in a hurry and grabbed him.Youre still going? She has nothing to do with you now, shes getting married! Shell be someone elses wife very soon!
Jing Zhi paused. The pain in his heart spread through his body.
After a long time, he spoke in a hoarse voice,As long as shes doing well, theres nothing wrong with her marrying someone else.
Good my ass! Dont you know what kind of person Deng kun is? You can either be a man for once and snatch your woman back, or you can let them get married. Pull yourself together and never follow Zheng yuluo again!
There were some problems with Deng kun, but at least Zheng yuluo had never cried and smiled a lot when she was with him. The Zheng family was also very satisfied with Deng kun, and Zheng yuluo no longer had to suffer between her father and her boyfriend.
The reason why Jing Zhi didnt ruin their rtionship was that he would always protect Zheng yuluo in the dark, and Deng kun couldnt hurt her.
Jing Zhi didnt listen to Jin Xins advice and walked out.
Zheng yuluo got off work at 5:30 pm. Deng kun came to pick her up and sent her back to the Zheng family. The Zheng family enthusiastically asked her to stay for dinner.
After dinner, Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei went upstairs to change and get ready to go out for a walk.
Deng kun chatted with Zheng Jing for a while and then went upstairs to find Zheng yuluo when he estimated that the two sisters were almost done changing.
A woman in casual clothes walked out of the room. Deng kun went up to her with a gentle face and reached out to hold her waist. Just as he was about to lower his head to kiss her, he was pped on the face!
Deng, if you dare to touch me again, Ill castrate you!
Deng kun touched his face, but the hand on her waist showed no signs of letting go. Instead, it tightened.
Luoluo, why are you so angry today? Youre not even angry when we do more intimate things! Your dad is sitting in the living room downstairs. Just let me kiss him, okay?
Zheng Yuwei looked at Deng kun with cold eyes, and then nced at her sisters closed door. She lowered her voice and said coldly,Deng kun, stop pretending. You know who I am! I look like my sister, but her hair is much longer than mine! Youve taken the older sister and still think about the younger sister, youre really disgusting!
Deng kun suddenly showed a strange smile. His handsome face showed a kind of excitement, and he got close to Zheng Yuweis face and whispered,Baby, I really like this burning feeling of yours! And I especially like that you know Im not a good thing, but you dont tell your sister! Why, have you fallen in love with me?
Zheng Yuwei also smiled. She stretched out her white hand and slowly touched Deng kuns face, gently stroking it like a lover.
The two of them were in an extremely ambiguous position. If one didnt know better, they would definitely think that they were a couple.
Pa pa pa!
A few crisp sounds were heard, and in the blink of an eye, a few clear palm prints appeared on Deng kuns face.
Zheng Yuwei wanted to give Deng kun another hard shoulder throw, but Deng kun raised his eyebrows and said unhurriedly,I can help you cover up the palm print on my faceter, but if you throw me, I wont be able to cover it up!
Zheng Yuwei looked down at Zheng Jing, who was sitting in the living room downstairs. Seeing that he seemed to have heard the sound and was looking up, she immediately changed her expression and said with a smile,Brother-inw, you go downstairs first. Sister hasnt changed yet!
Although she was smiling, there was no trace of a smile in her eyes.
She had been at war with herself for a long time!
Deng kun was always gentle and thoughtful in front of Zheng yuluo. He was like a good man, and Zheng yuluo also smiled more because of him.
His family had long recognized Deng kun as their son-inw. Zheng Yuwei had tested him several times. Her sister and parents all thought that Deng kun was the best candidate for marriage.
As a result, Zheng Yuwei had never dared to tell anyone that Deng kun had taken advantage of her.
She always had a glimmer of hope that after Deng kun married his sister, he would put all his attention on her sister and would no longer use the excuse of mistaking her for someone else to do anything to her.
More importantly, Zheng yuluo had finally epted a man again. If she and Deng kun were separated, what if she refused to fall in love again?
What if she sought death again?
Zheng Yuwei didnt dare to take the risk.
She stared at Deng kun with a warning look, and then pushed him down the stairs.
The two of them were talking in a very low voice outside. Zheng yuluo, who was in the room, had no idea what was happening outside.
She held a small box and looked at the dazzling diamonds inside. She let out a soft sigh.
She had already gotten someone to appraise these diamonds. They were all high-quality diamonds with extremely high purity and hardness. Every single one of them had been polished to near perfection.
A year ago, the estimated value of these 19 pills had already reached more than 10 million!
Chapter 1309
Chapter 1309: Do you hate me?
Trantor: 549690339
The diamond appraisal agency had tried to persuade her to sell the diamond to them, but Zheng yuluo had refused.
She didnt know who had given her these diamonds, but she knew that they must have been from an extremely important person.
It was impossible for someone to have dropped it by ident.
Before this, she was lying in the intensive care unit. No one had entered except for the doctors, nurses, and family.
She had also asked her sister many times, and her sister said that other than those few days, other than her parents and her, no one had visited her.
Diamonds symbolized eternal love. Except for a few collectors, ordinary people bought diamonds for marriage proposals and weddings.
Zheng yuluos eyes were slightly dazed. Who wanted to propose to her?
She took the diamond and walked to the closet. She touched the mens gray tweed coat inside and slowly closed her eyes.
Tears fell unconsciously, and Zheng yuluo was so ufortable that she couldnt breathe.
Every time she got close to the dress, she would shed tears without realizing it.
She was bing more and more certain that the owner of this dress must be an extremely important person to her.
But why had she forgotten about him?
Why didnt hee to her?
Or was he no longer in this world?
Zheng yuluo had seen news about him after she was transferred from the intensive care unit to the general ward.
There was a spection on the news that she hadmitted suicide.
Zheng yuluo thought it was ridiculous at first. She had parents, a sister, and was living a happy life. Why would shemit suicide?
But now, she was slowly beginning to believe that she might have reallymitted suicide.
However, after she woke up, shepletely forgot the reason for her suicide, as well as a certain person.
No one had ever mentioned anything about him, as if he had never existed.
However, in her dreams at night, she would always remember a warm embrace that hugged her and called her by her full name. Zheng yuluo, wake up!
The dream was shattered, the voice was blurry, and his shadow was even more blurry.
After she woke up from her dreams, she would always be in tears, and her heart would ache so much that she couldnt breathe.
Zheng yuluo wiped the corners of her eyes, hid the diamond, changed her clothes, closed the cab, and walked out of the room.
Zheng Yuwei was already waiting outside her room. When she saw hering out, she immediately went up to her happily and held her arm. She smiled and said,Sister, lets go. Brother-inw has been waiting downstairs for a long time!
Zheng yuluo smiled and nodded. She went downstairs with her and the three of them went out for a walk.
It was a little strange for the three of them to walk together.
However, Zheng yuluo did not like to walk alone with Deng kun. Every time, she would bring her sister along so that she would be more at ease.
Zheng Yuwei was also worried that her sister would be alone with Deng kun. She was always afraid that she would be at a disadvantage, so she also came with a half-hearted refusal.
As for Deng kun, the two sisters looked the same, but their personalities werepletely different. One was gentle and graceful, while the other was lively and hot. The two of them apanied him for a walk, which made him feel like sisters serving the same husband. This made his vanity burst, and he couldnt wait for the two of them toe together.
In front of Zheng Yuwei, if he was intimate with Zheng yuluo, Zheng yuluo would not resist.
And in front of Zheng yuluo, he secretly took advantage of Zheng Yuwei. In order not to be discovered by Zheng yuluo, Zheng Yuwei usually swallowed her anger.
Deng kun touched Zheng Yuwei without saying a word. Seeing her clenching her teeth and enduring, he simply wanted tough out loud!
He was in a good mood as he held Zheng yuluos waist and pulled her into his arms. Seeing Zheng yuluos obedient look, his mood became even better.
Why are there so many red marks on your face? Zheng yuluo asked softly.
Its nothing. I was ying with Weiwei just now and got scratched by her. Deng kun smiled gently. Shes like a little wild cat all day and loves to joke.
As he spoke, he took a deep look at Zheng Yuwei, who was standing beside Zheng yuluo.
Zheng Yuwei ignored him and pulled Zheng yuluo out of Deng kuns arms with a little force. She hugged her and acted coquettishly,Sister, brother-inw insisted on entering your room just now. I stopped him and then identally scratched his face. Dont me me! Im doing this to protect you!
Zheng Yuwei rarely acted coquettishly, so every time she did, Zheng yuluo would definitely side with her without any principles.
Moreover, she really didnt want Deng kun to enter her room.
His sister was right.
It was just that scratching Deng kuns face didnt seem very good.
I dont me you. But next time, dont scratch your face. You can scratch it to make it itch!
Zheng yuluos tone was soft, and her expression was rxed. It was obvious that she really did not take it to heart.
Zheng Yuwei heaved a sigh of relief.
Jing Zhi stood under a tree by the road, watching Zheng yuluo and Deng kun talking andughing. Sometimes they would even hug each other affectionately. The pain in his eyes could not be concealed.
Perhaps his gaze was too intense. Zheng yuluo seemed to sense it and suddenly turned to look at him.
Jing Zhi put his hat on his head, lowered the brim to cover half of his face, and walked away in silence.
Deng kun was telling a joke to Zheng yuluo, but when he saw that she had no reaction, he could not help but ask,Luoluo, What are you looking at? Arent my jokes funny?
Zheng yuluo came back to her senses and said with a faint smile,Nothing, I didnt hear you clearly just now. Can you repeat it?
Deng kun told the joke again with a good temper, and Zheng yuluoughed in cooperation.
However, Zheng yuluo did not feel happy at all. She always felt empty, as if she had missed something important.
She couldnt help but turn around and look at the lonely figure in the distance.
Visibility was poor at night, and the other party was too far away, so Zheng yuluo could not see anything, only a rough outline.
However, for some reason, she felt that the coat in her closet would suit the man very well.
Zheng yuluo shook her head gently,ughing at herself for being possessed.
As she walked, she would unconsciously size up the mans height and figure, imagining how he would look in that gray coat.
However, so far, she felt that the most suitable person was not the lonely shadow who had just walked past, but Deng kun who was standing beside her.
Of course, she had never let Deng kun try on that dress. She only noticed that Deng kuns size matched the gray coat.
The person who had just walked past seemed to be a little thin. He would probably be a little fatter if he wore that coat.
After wandering outside for an hour, Deng kun sent the sisters home and then drove back to his own home.
Zheng yuluo stood by the window and watched Deng kun drive away. An inexplicable sense of familiarity hit her.
She had a feeling that before Deng kun, she had also stood by the window and watched someone leave and disappear into the vast night.
Zheng yuluo touched her chest and muttered,If I cant think of you in my life, will you hate me?

Chapter 1310: I dont love
Trantor: 549690339
The next morning, Deng kun came to pick up Zheng yuluo for work as usual.
Zheng Jing was finally satisfied when he saw his daughter and future son-inw walking out together.
His daughter could marry anyone, but not Jing Zhi.
Fortunately, Jing Zhi had not appeared for a long time, and his family had not mentioned anything about him. Zheng yuluo had forgotten about him. It was Gods will!
Deng kun was much better than Jing Zhi. He was gentle, humble, careful, and considerate. Not only was he good to Zheng yuluo, but he never lost his temper at her. He was also very filial to his elders.
Every time he came to the Zheng family, he would bring all kinds of gifts. He would also call them uncle and aunt affectionately and respectfully, which made Zheng Jing feel very satisfied.
Zheng Lun, on the other hand, was still worried. She looked at Zheng Jings satisfied face and said softly,Are we really going to let them get married like this? I have a feeling that luoluo doesnt like Deng kun. I want her to marry someone she likes, or shell regret it for the rest of her life.
Zheng Lun was married to love and had been in a good rtionship with Zheng Jing for more than 20 years. They had never quarreled.
She felt very happy, and she wanted her daughters to be happy too.
Zheng yuluo clearly had no love for Deng kun. She always said that she seemed to have forgotten something, that she had forgotten an important person. Zheng Lun felt very distressed every time.
Zheng Jing turned his head and said calmly,Deng kun is a nice guy. He takes good care of luoluo. It is hard to find such a considerate person nowadays.
The most important thing was that Deng kun was healthy and did not have any messy viruses. He would not kill people just because he bled a little. He also had a proper job, unlike someone who made a living by killing!
Lun, dont worry. They have been in a rtionship for so long and our daughter has never objected to it. She is also satisfied with Deng kun. Its settled then. Ill have a good chat with the Deng familyter and see when theyll get engaged.
Zheng Lun had never been a man of her own. Zheng Jing was the one who had the final say in the family. She thought for a while and felt that it made sense, so she said nothing more.
In Deng kuns white raxus car, Zheng yuluo was also thinking about marriage.
Luoluo, weve been dating for so long. Its time for us to get married. I want you to be my wife. Are you willing?
Well definitely be very happy in the future. I love you, and you love me. Well have two more children in the future, and well eat and walk together. Do you like it?
Zheng yuluo did not know if this counted as a proposal, but she realized that she was not moved at all. She did not have any yearning.
Why?
Why was it like this?
Was it because there were no roses?
Or was it because Deng kun did not kneel down with the diamond ring?
Or was it because she knew that Deng kun not only mistook her for his sister, but was also gentle and considerate to other women?
No, no, no!
A voice in her head was telling her that these were not the reasons!
The real reason was that she no longer had a heart!
From the day she woke up, from the day she forgot about a certain person, she forgot about her own heart as well.
She chose Deng kun, not because she liked him, but because her parents and sister liked him. They all said that this person was very good, very suitable for love and marriage.
Only Zheng yuluo herself knew how much she hated being touched by Deng kun.
However, she had been holding it in.
His family said that he was a good person, so he should really be a good person, right?
Even if there was no Deng kun, there would be someone else. She had to choose a man to marry eventually.
Although Deng kun was a bit of a yboy, he had a good temper, was ambitious, generous, and gentle. It didnt seem inappropriate to marry him.
Zheng yuluo closed her eyes and suppressed the inexplicable sourness and pain in her heart. She smiled and said,Marriage is an important matter. I have to discuss it with my parents first.
Deng kuns handsome face also revealed a smile.Well, youre right. Let our parents discuss it. Theres no hurry. Well listen to you. You can get married whenever you want to.
The smile on Deng kuns face only disappeared when he sent Zheng yuluo to herpany.
The corners of his lips curled up into a cruel arc. The gentleness in his eyes had long disappeared, and in its ce was a sinister and ruthless look.
After being in a rtionship for so long, he had not made any substantial progress with Zheng yuluo.
Every time he touched her, she would be as stiff as a block of wood. There was once when he kissed her, and she actually vomited!
Wasnt Deng kuns family background, looks, and career all top-notch?
The women who were chasing him lined up!
The wooden Zheng yuluo was not as likable as the hot-tempered Zheng Yuwei, who would hit people at any time.
It didnt matter. After they got married, he would have plenty of ways to torture Zheng yuluo in bed!
He had a lot of tricks up his sleeve, and he could even train a block of wood into a peerless stunner!
Blockhead Zheng yuluo walked into thepany in a light gray business suit and a pair of diamond high heels of the same color. When the people in thepany saw her, the scene that was originally extremely heated with discussion suddenly quieted down.
Zheng yuluo was a little confused. She smiled and greeted everyone, then walked to her desk and sat down. She turned on herputer and got ready to work.
She worked in design, such as LOGO design and cover design. The boss of thepany was a friend of Zheng Jing. Zheng yuluo had an easy job and no one would force her to do anything.
Zheng yuluo had actually studied microorganisms for the first two years of her college studies. She dropped out of school and became an actress. When she returned to school, Zheng Jing had helped her change her major to design.
He always said that this was the profession that girls should learn.
All the specializations were the same for Zheng yuluo.
Since learning design could make her family happy, she epted it.
While Zheng yuluo was working hard, there were whispers in the office again.
Hey, hey, hey, Xiao Chen, are you sure youre not mistaken? Yuluos boyfriend is so good to her, why would he mess around with another woman in a bar?
Yeah, I heard theyre getting married soon. Theyre usually quite happy together, dont tell me theyre just putting on an act for us?
I cant be wrong! By the way, Ive also taken a photo. Take a closer look, is it that Deng kun?
Gossip always spread the fastest. Zheng yuluo already knew all the rumors by four in the afternoon.
The colleagues in thepany all looked at Zheng yuluo with a kind of youre so pitiful and we sympathize with you look, but Zheng yuluo acted as if nothing had happened. She continued to draw pictures and drink coffee when she needed to.
She had actually heard a lot of such rumors when she was in University.
She had long known that Deng kun was a yboy.
His tenderness was like water, not only for her, but also for many other beautiful girls.
Chapter 1311
Chapter 1311: First love
Trantor: 549690339
In the past, whenever such a thing happened, Zheng yuluo would choose to turn a blind eye to it. Even if a woman provoked her in front of her, she would just smile it off and never get angry.
Today, her heart was as calm as her face, even a little indifferent.
Zheng yuluo touched her chest out of habit.
Why did she remember that she used to be very jealous?
Why did he be so magnanimous now?
Zheng yuluo touched the corner of her eyes again. It was dry and there was no sign of tears.
Strange, where were her tears?
The people in thepany were all surprised to see Zheng yuluo so calm.
One must know that she usually looked like a particrly weak girl, but there was a kind of gentleness and tenderness that seeped from her bones, making many people want to hold her in their arms and pamper her.
He didnt expect her to be so calm when she was in trouble!
If it was someone else, they would have cried and made a fuss when they found a boyfriend. They would also feel very embarrassed.
No one had expected Zheng yuluo to be so calm.
Among women, there would always be those who were very jealous and couldnt bear to see others living better than them.
For example,Xiao Chen who was the first to expose Deng kuns problem.
Before Chen Yiran got off work, she had already gathered a group of people to persuade Zheng yuluo to go to the bar to have some fun.
In fact, everyone knew her purpose. The bar they were going to was near theirpany. It had just opened and was not very popr. However, Chen Yiqian had met Deng kun therest night.
Chen Yiqian had always been conceited. She thought that she was a great beauty and had always bragged about how many suitors she had.
Unfortunately, the best of her pursuers could notpare to Deng kun.
Every time she saw Deng kuning to pick up Zheng yuluo, she would use a sour tone to mock and ridicule.
Zheng yuluo actually knew Chen Yiyis motive. She did not understand why Chen Yiyi was more concerned about her matters than her own.
Most of the people in thepany would be at the bar that night. Many people came to invite Zheng yuluo enthusiastically. She could not refuse and could only agree.
She didnt want to go because the bar was too noisy and she felt that Deng kun would be embarrassed if she met him.
As for herself, she really didnt take this matter to heart.
In fact, Deng kun often ate at the Zheng family and took a walk with her. Then, he would go to bars and other ces to live his rich nightlife.
Because eating a meal or taking a walk would take two or three hours, it was usually eight or nineo clock at that time. It was impossible for Deng kun to go home and sleep.
After they got off work, they went to the restaurant for a meal and chatted for a while, then went straight to the bar.
Deng kun did note to pick up Zheng yuluo today. He said that he had to work overtime, and Zheng yuluo was relieved.
He had better work overtime. Otherwise, if he met him at night, the image that Deng kun had been maintaining would copse.
By then, he would have to rack his brains to find a bunch of excuses to exin, and even Zheng yuluo felt tired for him.
Without Deng kun as an obstacle, Zheng yuluo followed her colleagues into the bar with a rxed expression.
It was her first timeing to such a ce. Zheng yuluo was very curious and looked around with interest.
At first, there were not many people, but after more than an hour, the bar slowly became lively. There were even resident singers singing affectionately on the stage.
Zheng yuluo was slightly drunk, with a faint smile on her lips. She felt the lively atmosphere in the bar and suddenly felt that it was wonderful.
It turned out that the bar was not as messy as some people said. No one deliberately came to hit on her, and no one took off their clothes in public. Most of the people were very civilized.
However, the civilization did notst long.
There was a fight in the bar over a girl.
Zheng yuluo nced at it and didnt pay much attention to it. She lowered her head and continued to drink her cocktail.
This cocktail was very delicious. It was sweet and sour with the fragrance of an orange, which made her feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
She felt that she had smelled this scent somewhere before.
Where was he?
Zheng yuluo tried her best to think, but there was only a vague shadow in her mind. She could not remember what it was at all.
Feeling a little dizzy, she tugged on the sleeve of the person beside her and asked curiously,Whats the name of this cocktail? Why do I feel like Ive drunk it before?
The man beside her was pulled by her, and his body clearly stiffened. After a while, he slowly said in a low voice,The wine is called first love.
First love?
Zheng yuluos eyes were misty. She stuck out her tongue to lick her red lips and tilted her head.It does feel like first love. I remember first love was very, very beautiful
The low voice beside her was still there, and the smell of smoke on him was strong. Zheng yuluo instinctively wrinkled her nose.
Stop drinking. Youve already drunk a lot tonight. If you drink any more, youll get a headache.
But I think Im fine, and its really good!
As Zheng yuluo spoke, she couldnt help but take another sip of the cocktail. She savored the refreshing and sweet feeling and felt that even the depths of her heart seemed to be sweet.
After drinking the entire cocktail, the heat of love surrounded her. Then, a light suddenly exploded in her mind!
First love?
Why did she remember the feeling of being passionately in love?
Who had she been in love with?
Wasnt Deng kun her first boyfriend?
Zheng yuluo suddenly sobered up. She turned to look at the person beside her, but the person who had been sitting there had disappeared!
She had been sitting here drinking for the entire night, and he was the only one who had advised her not to continue drinking!
Zheng yuluo was anxiously looking for the figure in the crowd, but unfortunately, she did not see him clearly just now! She only remembered that he was wearing ck clothes.
Zheng yuluo was looking around when Chen Yiqian ran over with a ss of wine. She said in an exaggerated tone,Aiya, yuluo, why are you still sitting here so calmly? Your boyfriend is fighting with someone else, you should go and take a look!
Fight?
Zheng yuluo looked at the only group of people fighting in the bar. There were a few circles of people around them, and cheers could be heard from time to time.
It cant be, the person fighting is actually Deng kun?
Zheng yuluo had a little too much to drink. She forced herself to stand up and walked unsteadily toward the crowd in her high heels.
Chen Yiqian was afraid that the matter was not big enough. She immediately shouted at those people,Please make way, handsome guys and beautiful girls. The family of the one who was beaten up on the ground is here!
The crowd immediately parted to make way for Zheng yuluo to walk to the center.
There were actually two men lying on the ground with swollen faces. Beside them, there was a beautiful woman who was crying to stop the fight.
The three of them were stunned when they saw Zheng yuluo.
The beautiful woman obviously knew Zheng yuluo, and the two people lying on the ground, one was Deng kun, and the other was Lou Ziyi, who had once pursued Zheng yuluo.
Everyone thought that Zheng yuluo was going to fly into a rage, but to their surprise, she only smiled gently and said,The ground is cold, get up!
Chapter 1312
Chapter 1312: A strange embrace
Trantor: 549690339
With just a few simple words, the two men who had wanted to kill each other a moment ago immediately got up from the ground.
Rain!
Luoluo!
The two men spoke at the same time. They wanted to exin to Zheng yuluo, but they did not know how to start.
Zheng yuluoughed and said,how old are you? why are you still fighting? With such a bloody nose and swollen face, how could he face others tomorrow? Ziyi, why did you
As she spoke, she suddenly stopped!
An image suddenly appeared in his mind!
Someone had also hit Lou Ziyi in anger before!
The scene of Lou Ziyi being kicked out was blurry, but it was real!
The heartache instantly drowned Zheng yuluo. She was still smiling a moment ago, but the next moment, tears suddenly fell.
Who was it?
Where are you?
Why, why did I forget about you!
Everyone did not understand why Zheng yuluo changed her expression so quickly, but Deng kun thought that Zheng yuluo was just pretending to be calm before, and now she couldnt hold it in anymore. She was crying because she was jealous and sad.
He took a few steps forward, wanting to hug Zheng yuluo.
Unexpectedly, Zheng yuluo shouted,Get lost, dont touch me!
Deng kun was shocked by her. How could Zheng yuluo, who had always been gentle, be so fierce?
He even suspected that this was not Zheng yuluo, but an angry Zheng Yuwei!
Zheng yuluo was not in the mood to pay attention to Deng kun. She walked to Lou Ziyi step by step and asked with red eyes,Lou Ziyi, please tell me, who did you meet on your birthday when you sent me home?!
Lou Ziyis eyes widened in shock and he didnt know how to respond.
Didnt Zheng Yuwei say that Zheng yuluo had lost her memory?
Didnt she say that she had forgotten everything about Jing Zhi?
Why did she still remember that incident?
Yu Luo, what are you saying? Howe I dont understand? I have a lot of friends on my birthday every year!
Lou Ziyi looked at Zheng yuluo with a puzzled look, but Zheng Yuweis words were still in his mind.
She said that she would erase everything rted to Jing Zhi in the past and not let Zheng yuluoe into contact with those things. That way, she would never remember that person.
The Zheng family had indeed done it.
They didnt have much contact with family Jing anymore. Zheng yuluos friends, ssmates, and colleagues were all new and had nothing to do with the past.
She had started a brand new life.
Lou Ziyi refused to admit it, but Zheng yuluo did not continue to ask.
She clearly knew that she wouldnt be able to get any answers.
This was because she had asked her family many times, and everyones answer was the same: Youre wrong.
For a time, she suspected that she had remembered wrongly, because that person did not seem to exist in her life at all.
Other than the clothes and the box of diamonds, there was no trace of him.
Zheng yuluo slowly turned around and staggered away.
Deng kun hurriedly caught up and wanted to exin what happened tonight, but Zheng yuluo said woodenly,Dont follow me. Let me be alone.
Luoluo, I have nothing to do with that woman. Please dont misunderstand!
I didnt misunderstand. Please dont follow me anymore. Well talk about it tomorrow.
Zheng yuluo did not spend much effort to drive Deng kun away.
Or perhaps, Deng kun was not prepared to follow her all the time. He was still in a hurry to go back and exin Zheng yuluo to the beautiful women in the bar.
In the dark night, a light rain began to fall.
Zheng yuluo did not seem to feel anything and continued to move forward mechanically.
She had left her bag in the bar in a hurry, but at this moment, she had no time to think about it.
She was trying her best to recall the person who had hit Lou Ziyi. She thought of his face, his voice, and his name.
The pain in her head, coupled with the effect of alcohol, made Zheng yuluo almost unable to support her body.
The rain was getting heavier, and her white dress was already wet. Water was also dripping from her hair, and she was cold all over.
However, the cold in her body was nothingpared to the pain in her heart.
Her tears were mixed with the rain and flowed down her cheeks.
She didnt know why she was crying, but as soon as she thought of someone who had once existed in her life, she couldnt stop her tears.
She had been in love with Deng kun for so long, but she had never shed a tear.
No matter what Deng kun did, she didnt think there was anything to cry about.
She thought that she was especially strong and indifferent!
It wasn t!
It was because she had never let him enter her heart!
In the dark, three people had their eyes on Zheng yuluo. One of them was a weak girl, crying as she walked on the empty street. She was like a little rabbit sent to the Tigers mouth. If she didnt eat it, she would be sorry for the heavy rain that could cover everything.
The three of them surrounded Zheng yuluo and blocked all her escape routes. Then, they slowly approached her.
Little girl, be good and hand over all your money!
He wanted to Rob the girls of their money before he robbed them of their body. This way, he could divert the girls attention and make them think that they would be safe after handing over their money.
Zheng yuluo raised her head, wanting to look at the bad guys who were blocking her. Unfortunately, her head was hurting so badly that her vision was gradually blurring.
Her body swayed a little as she frowned and said,Dont mess with me. My family name is Zheng, and my father is the director of the Public Security Bureau, Zheng Jing!
The three robbers looked at her and burst intoughter.
This girl even knows the name of our director! You even know how to use it to scare people!
Aiyo, girl, do you think the three of us are like you, out of our minds? Your father is Zheng Jing. Call him if you can!
Tsk, tsk, tsk, looking at your pitiful appearance, I didnt expect you to be so good at bluffing! Brothers, lets attack together. Tonight, well let her know that even the Bureau chief cant do anything!
The three of them grinned hideously as they approached Zheng yuluo. When they reached out to take off her clothes, they were sent flying one after another!
Screams rang out, and Zheng yuluo felt like she was dreaming!
She closed her eyes tightly and opened them again. In her blurry vision, the three men who had been shouting just now were indeed lying on the ground and wailing.
Eh?
What was going on?
The three of them had done so much evil and were struck by lightning?
Zheng yuluo looked up at the sky. There was no thunder!
She had drunk too much tonight, and when she looked up, the world was spinning.
Her brain was numbed by alcohol, and she lost her bnce. Zheng yuluo fell straight back.
However, the expected fall and pain did note. Instead, she fell into an unfamiliar embrace.
She was easily picked up by the waist, and his cold voice rang in her ears.Dont walk alone at night. Your boyfriend is not just for show. You should use him when you need to.

Chapter 1313: Just let me hug you one more time
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo realized that the three of them had not been struck by lightning, but had been kicked.
There was a strong smell of alcohol and smoke on his body, which Zheng yuluo especially disliked. But why didnt she find it annoying now?
In the dark night, he was wearing a ck shirt and a baseball cap. His face was hidden in the shadows and could not be seen clearly.
He didnt look like a good person.
Zheng yuluo immediately struggled,let me go! My dad is the Bureau chief. If you dare to touch me, youll go to jail tomorrow!
Back and forth, he only used this one line to threaten people. He didnt even know how to curse.
Jing Zhi held her in his arms as he walked in the rain. He found it funny.
It had been so long, but she still hadnt grown up. She was still the same as before, silly and cute.
How long had it been since he was so rxed?
It had been too long!
He had not hugged her for a long time!
Just once, let him hug her again!
In the future, he would still watch over her silently, not appearing again, and not disturbing her peaceful life.
He had deliberately opened the bar near herpany and lowered the prices of all kinds of drinks to the lowest to attract people from herpany.
He thought that she woulde at least once, right?
Jing Zhi lowered his head and looked at Zheng yuluo, who was still on guard against him. He sighed softly in his heart.
Youre here, thats enough!
Since he had already forgotten, there was no point in remembering it. He just wanted to live a simple and happy life.
He let go of the dizzy Zheng yuluo and gave her a karate chop on the back of her neck. When she fainted, he immediately reached out to hold her, wrapped his coat around her, and carried her to continue walking in the rain.
If she was awake, there was a possibility that he would expose himself, so he should let her sleep for a while!
Jin Xin caught up with Jing Zhi in his car and looked at him speechlessly.Hey, hey, hey, you clearly have a car, why do you have to walk in the rain? Is this very romantic?
Jing Zhi didnt move. He didnt even slow down his pace. He just walked slowly with the woman in his arms.
Driving was so fast. If she walked slower, he would be able to spend more time with her.
He didnt want to send her home so soon.
Jin Xin stomped his feet in anger. He didnt care about Zheng yuluos life at all. He only cared about Jing Zhi. What if Jing Zhi got a influenza virus in such a heavy rain?
He rolled his eyes and said immediately,Zheng yuluos body is weak. Shell fall sick if she gets caught in the rain. Get in the car!
As expected, Jing Zhi stopped in his tracks.
He hesitated for a second and finally put Zheng yuluo in the car. Send her home.
Jin Xin looked at Jing Zhi, who was standing outside the car, in surprise.How about you?
I cant go. The Zheng family doesnt wee me.
If he went, he would only cause Zheng yuluo more trouble.
He was no longer the headstrong boy he used to be. He would not let Zheng yuluo make things difficult for him and his family.
The Zheng family did not mention a word about him. If they wanted Zheng yuluo topletely forget about him, their attitude could be seen.
Zheng yuluo had forgotten about him. At first, he was angry and hateful.
Why had she forgotten about him? Did she hate him too much? Or did she remember that he was in too much pain?
He had clearly suffered more. He had clearly lived in her shadow since he was young.
However, as time passed, Jing Zhis anger and hatred gradually dissipated.
She had forgotten everything in the past. What was the point of his hatred and anger?
The most painful thing in the world was not life and death, but when you were clearly alive, but you no longer existed in her world.
He had been suffering alone for hundreds of days.| Day and night, she missed the entire spring, summer, autumn, and winter. She waited for the most painful darkness and looked forward to the warm dawn. However, what she waited for was the news that she was about to spend the rest of her life with another man.
What did it feel like to have all of a persons bones broken and then reassembled?
Jing Zhi had already tried it.
The car disappeared into the rain, but Jing Zhi still stood there, unwilling to leave.
Jin Xin couldnt help but sigh heavily when he saw Jing Zhis lonely figure in the rear mirror.
She didnt know what the Zheng family was thinking. What was wrong with Jing Zhi? Just the fact that he was surnamed Jing made him ten thousand times better than Deng kun!
With the family background of the Zheng family, it would be a blessing for her daughter to marry into family Jing. And he actually kept disdaining it!
Jing Zhis blood was poisonous, but he had never killed any of his family or friends.
He had been with Jing Zhi for so long and had even helped him dress his wounds, but he was still alive and well.
Deng kun was such a yboy, but Jing Zhi was devoted to Zheng yuluo. Deng kun couldntpare with Jing Zhis determination.
Moreover, if it wasnt for Jing Zhi protecting Zheng yuluo in secret, she would have been vited by the wicked many times!
Jin Xin looked at the sleeping Zheng yuluo, not understanding what attracted Jing Zhi to this girl.
She was pretty, but Jing Zhi had been in the entertainment industry before and had seen all kinds of beautiful women.
These two people were probably enemies in their previous lives!
Jin Xin didnt dare to send Zheng yuluo directly to the Zheng family. He called a taxi halfway, helped Zheng yuluo to the car, and followed the car from a distance to the Zheng family.
Jin Xin didnt leave until he saw the Zheng familye out to pick up Zheng yuluo.
After a stormy night, the sky cleared up the next morning.
Zheng yuluo got up after getting drunk and felt her head was about to explode.
Her family wasining that she had gone to the bar alone and ended up being sent back after being drunk. It was too dangerous.
Zheng yuluo rubbed her forehead as she listened to her parents and sisters chatter, but not a single word entered her mind.
Although she had drunk a little too muchst night, it wasnt to the point of losing her memory. She could still remember most of the things.
She just couldnt remember how she came back.
At that time, someone had saved her and hugged her, and then?
Her parents said that she had been sent home by a taxi. Who had helped her get a taxi? And how did he know where she lived?
Thinking of the man who had suddenly appearedst night and what he had said, Zheng yuluos heart was filled with doubts.
However, she subconsciously hid the existence of this person and did not mention a word to her parents. She only said that she had drunk too muchst night and had forgotten how she came back.
Zheng yuluo had taken a day off. By noon, she had basically recovered. Other than a little cold, she did not feel any other difort.
Deng kun hade to see her at noon. He acted as ifst nights incident had not happened. He called her luoluo affectionately as usual. He did not apologize, nor did he feel embarrassed.
Zheng yuluo maintained this strange tacit understanding with him and did not mention anything about the bar.
However, the smile she always had when she faced Deng kun had disappeared.

Chapter 1314: A rich but foolish woman
Trantor: 549690339
From the moment she saw Lou Ziyi and thought of a vague picture, Zheng yuluo could no longer smile at Deng kun.
In the past, she could still pretend that she liked Deng kun, but now, she was not even willing to pretend.
She wanted to find the person in her memory. Even if he was dead and had gone to another world, she wanted to get her memory back!
Moreover, what if he was still alive?
If he was still alive and she had forgotten about himpletely, it would be unfair to him!
Life went on. Zheng yuluo bought a white coro with the 120000 Yuan she had saved up over the years.
She didnt actually have much money. This money was the red Pocket money given to her by her elders and her parents a few years ago.
She had just started working and did not earn much.
When her family saw that Zheng yuluo had bought a car, they were all a little surprised. They did not understand why she had bought a car without a word.
Sister, why didnt you tell me that you were buying a car? I could have gone with you!
Luoluo, why did you buy this kind of car? If you want a car, let me know and Ill buy you a better one. Although this car saves fuel, its not as safe, so Im worried about you driving it.
Both Zheng Yuwei and Zheng Jing were frowning, except for Zheng Lun, who was looking at her daughter with worry.
A mother knew her daughter best. Zheng Lun could guess why her daughter had bought a car behind their back.
She touched her daughters fair face and said softly,Luoluo, be careful on the road. Dont drive too fast.
Zheng yuluo smiled at Zheng Lun.Mom, dont worry. I would rather bete than run the red light.
The next day at work, Zheng yuluo didnt let Deng kun pick her up and drove to thepany herself.
She was indeed not very skilled at driving. She had gotten her drivers license half a year ago, and now she was almost returning her driving skills to the instructor.
However, she still rejected thepany of her father and sister.
Even though she was a little scared, she wanted to go alone.
She didnt want to live under their wings forever.
Deng kun couldnt send Zheng yuluo to work, and he was worried that Zheng yuluo was going to break up with him.
In the afternoon, he deliberately drove to Zheng yuluospany to have lunch with her. After testing the waters, he found that Zheng yuluo had no intention of breaking up with him, so he was relieved.
The Deng family was an ordinary well-off family. Her father, Deng haichuan, was a manager of a real estatepany with a monthly sry of eight thousand Yuan. Her mother, Dong an, was working in finance in a joint venturepany with a simr sry as Deng haichuan.
Compared to the Zheng family, the Deng family was nothing.
Fortunately, Deng kun worked hard. After graduating from his masters degree, he directly entered a foreign bank with an annual sry of 500000 Yuan, which was considered good among the graduates.
The Zheng family was much richer than the Deng family. Zheng yuluos dowry in the future would be a lot. At least, Deng kun did not need to buy the house. The Zheng family had already prepared the vi for the wedding.
Whats more, Zheng yuluo was gentler than anyone else. She didnt make a fuss when Deng kun was fooling around outside. Not only did she ept it quietly, but she also helped him cover it up.
Where could he find such a rich but foolish woman?
Deng kun had not eaten Zheng yuluo yet, and he did not want this little white rabbit to slip away from his mouth.
Luoluo, let me drive you to work in the future. Im really worried about you driving alone.
Deng kun pushed a te of Zheng yuluos favorite squirrel fish in front of her, carefully picking out the fish bones for her while constantly persuading her.
Zheng yuluo did not stop Deng kuns solicitousness. She knew that he would not only take care of her so attentively and thoughtfully, but also take care of other women.
No need, you have to take a detour to my house every time, its too hard! I cant possibly not drive for the rest of my life. Its so difficult to get a drivers license, but Ive already gotten it. I just need to familiarize myself with the road.
The driving test is full of dead things, but the road is full of living things. Its very dangerous.
Deng kun gradually discovered that Zheng yuluo, who seemed gentle and easy to talk to, was actually very stubborn at times. It was difficult to persuade her once she had made up her mind.
How about this, you drive my raxus, Ill drive your car. My car has better performance and is safer.
Those who didnt know would definitely think that the two of them were very loving after seeing the way they ate and the content of their conversation.
For example, Chen Yiqian, who was sitting at the next table, was so jealous that her eyes were burning. The te of bamboo shoots had been ruined by her.
She didnt understand why Zheng yuluo was still in a rtionship with Deng kun when she caught them in the bar.
Why did Deng kun always appear so humble in front of Zheng yuluo?
His raxus was worth more than 500000 Yuan, and it was said that his parents had bought it for him when he graduated. He had always treasured it, so how could he bear to give it to Zheng yuluo?
Zheng yuluo, however, did not care about a raxus. She said in a soft voice,Its fine, my car is fine too. Ill drive yours when my car breaks down.
She had just bought a new car. Although the Coro was cheap, it was famous for its durability. This meant that she did not know how to drive Deng kuns car.
Chen Yiqian was so angry that she rolled her eyes at the table beside her. She mumbled softly,Tsk, you can really act! Youre shameless!
Although her voice was soft, Zheng yuluo heard it.
However, she pretended not to hear him.
Most of the time, Zheng yuluo was very good-tempered. She was gentle like water, did not like to argue with others, and did not care much about what others said about her.
She had always lived in her own world.
Ignoring someone like Chen Yiqian was the best way to show her contempt and attack.
Zheng yuluo left after having lunch at the restaurant.
Deng kun was still sitting in the dining room when Chen Yiqian sat opposite him. She said flirtatiously,Mr. Deng, do you have time tonight? I know a bar thats pretty good, Wan na go for a drink?
Deng kun looked at her contemptuously, feeling extremely disdainful in his heart.
Although he, Deng kun, was a yboy, he was also picky!
Flirting with other women was just to vent his physical desires. He really wanted to marry a gentle and self-respecting girl like Zheng yuluo.
Who would dare to want a woman who could date and sleep with any man?
Zheng yuluo was extremely conservative when it came to matters between men and women. Not only would she not let him touch her, but she would also never let other men touch her.
Deng kun didnt have to worry about being cuckolded if he married her.
Who the hell was this Chen Yiqian? She actually dared to have ideas about him!
There was no such thing as an impervious wall in this world. If she slept with Chen Yiyi, she would be pping Zheng yuluo in the face in front of the entirepany!
Deng kun was not that stupid.
His lips curved into a mocking smile as he leaned closer to Chen Yiqians face. He said in a very low voice,I find cheap goods like you dirty!
Chen yizhao was so angry that she almost fainted!
Deng kun stood up elegantly, tidied his sleeves, and walked away.

Chapter 1315: The first love of the bar owner
Trantor: 549690339
When she went to work in the afternoon, Zheng yuluo realized that Chen Yiyis eyes were like knives. They kept scanning her body as if they were going to poke a hole in her.
Zheng yuluo was not in the mood to pay attention to Chen Yiyi. She was focused on her makeup and dressing up.
Zheng yuluo usually did not put on makeup.
She had just bought arge bag of cosmetics.
That was because she wanted to dress herself up and wait for someone at the bar.
Two days ago, her skills were not very good, and the makeup she did was a little too horrible to look at. But today, for some reason, she actually did it very beautifully.
Liu Xiaoying, a female colleague who had a good rtionship with Zheng yuluo, teased her,Yuluo, can you stop putting on makeup? Its very easy for you to take away a mans soul like this. Give an ugly woman like me a way out!
Zheng yuluo burst intoughter. She threw her makeup bag to Liu Xiaoying and said,The inte says that there are no ugly women, onlyzy women. You can also use makeup to seduce people!
Liu Xiaoying grimaced in pain.Even with makeup on, Ill still look like a female ghost. Its not a problem for me to seduce someones soul!
Liu Xiaoyings facial features were actually quite beautiful, but herrge, buck teeth ruined her beauty.
However, she also loved to show her teeth in a funny way, so she was nicknamed buck-teeth girl in thepany.
Liu Xiaoyings personality seemed to be carefree, but she was actually a meticulous girl. She kept feeling that Zheng yuluos condition was not quite right these few days.
She returned Zheng yuluos makeup bag to her and moved a chair to sit beside her. She asked softly,Yuluo, have you fallen for someone?
Zheng yuluo was slightly surprised, but she smiled and said,No, why do you ask?
Youve never put on makeup before, and even when youre with your boyfriend, you dont wear any makeup. There must be a problem if you suddenly like to dress up these two days! A woman suddenly likes to dress up, more than half of it is for the person she likes to see.
Zheng yuluo was shocked. Was she that obvious?
Fortunately, Liu Xiaoying had reminded her. Otherwise, if she were to return home with her makeup on, her family would definitely be suspicious.
Seeing that Zheng yuluos expression had changed, Liu Xiaoying quicklyforted her,Its fine, its fine. Dont worry, I wont tell anyone. Everyone else thinks that your boyfriend is good, but I dont think he is! Its good that you change to another one, otherwise youll be angered to death by him sooner orter.
Zheng yuluo looked at Liu Xiaoying in surprise. She had thought that she was the only one who thought Deng kun was ordinary!
Chen Yiqian was always jealous that she had an excellent and considerate boyfriend. Zheng yuluo found it funny herself. Didnt Chen Yiqian know what kind of person Deng kun was?
Look, Liu Xiaoying was much smarter than Chen Yiqian!
Zheng yuluo smiled and said,how about we go to the bar tonight? Im not familiar with the ce, please lead the way.
Liu Xiaoyings eyes immediately lit up,Alright, alright! There are so many handsome guys in the bar, I saw onest time, maybe Ill meet him again tonight!
She had a lively and outgoing personality and often went to bars with her friends, so she was familiar with those ces.
After they got off work, the two of them went to have dinner together. At around eighto clock, Zheng yuluo followed Liu Xiaoying and stepped into the bar called Waiting again.
At this time, there were still very few people. Zheng yuluo chose a corner to sit down and ordered two sses of first love.
I dont like to drink this! Liu Xiaoying replied hurriedly.
Zheng yuluo smiled.Yes, I ordered this for myself. You dont get a share.
No way, youre drinking two?
Cant I?
Liu Xiaoying looked at her strangely and asked,Are you a good drinker?
Its average!
I heard that their cocktail was created by the boss. It has a strong aftertaste. You should drink less!
Liu Xiaoying ordered a Martini for herself and ate the free popcorn from the bar. She smiled awkwardly as she exined the various cocktails to Zheng yuluo.
First love is a very popr cocktail, and all girls love it! The boss of this shop is really a talent, and hes super handsome, but he doesnte here often, and when he does, he doesnt like to talk. Hes very cold and cool!
I heard from the manager who manages his store that hes been heartbroken and has been missing his ex-girlfriend like crazy. He only knows how to drink and smoke every day, so he decided to open a bar and create a unique first love cocktail tomemorate his first love.
Sigh, I heard that he doesnt n to be in a rtionship anymore. He doesnt even look at the beautiful women chasing him. Such a devoted man is rare nowadays. Why do you think his girlfriend abandoned him? The boss is tall and handsome, and he can open such a big bar, which means hes rich. If I had a boyfriend like him, Id wake up from my dreamsughing!
More and more people gathered in the bar, and it became noisier and noisier.
Liu Xiaoying went on and on about the bar owner. For the first time, Zheng yuluo did not get distracted when someone else was talking. Instead, she listened very seriously.
Ever since she almost died that time, she had an extra problem when she woke up.
When others were talking, no matter how interesting it was, she would always be distracted.
She always felt that her heart was empty. She couldnt lift her spirits when it came to other peoples matters, even if it was her own parents and sister.
Most of the time, she just smiled politely and seemed to be listening, but in fact, her thoughts were already empty.
Today, she was unexpectedly focused!
This bar gave Zheng yuluo an extremely special feeling.
The taste of the cocktail was very special, and it gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity. Every time she took a sip of first love, she felt that she had once been passionately in love.
The people who appeared in the bar were also very special. Lou Ziyis appearance made her sure that there was one person she had forgotten.
That day, when she was slightly drunk, someone had advised her not to drink too much. When she was in danger, someone had appeared in time, saved her, and sent her home safe and sound.
Thinking of this, Zheng yuluo had a sh of inspiration!
No, that was clearly the same person!
The aura was the same, the smell of cigarettes was the same, and the clothes were the same!
Why did he save her?
Courageous?
No, it didnt look like it!
He had even told her not to walk alone at night, and that she should use her boyfriend if she had one!
Did he know that she had a boyfriend?
Zheng yuluo tried her best to recall the situation at that time, to recall every word he said, to recall his face and voice.
It was a pity that she was drunk that day and her memory was not particrly clear.
She could only remember his general figure and had no impression of his appearance at all.
As Zheng yuluo was thinking, Liu Xiaoying, who was beside her, suddenly shook her arm excitedly.Hey, hey, hey, luoyu, look, the bar owner is here! Im so lucky today to have met him!
Zheng yuluo followed the direction of Liu Xiaoyings finger and looked up.
Under the colorful lights of the bar, a tall figure slowly walked in.
Chapter 1316
Chapter 1316: Youre like a friend
Trantor: 549690339
He was wearing a ck baseball cap and a simple dark gray casual outfit. His face was hidden in the shadows, so people couldnt see his facial features clearly, but they could feel that he must be an extremely handsome man.
The boisterous bar and the cheerful atmosphere couldnt dispel the loneliness around him.
Liu Xiaoyings description was not wrong. He was especially cold and cool.
His temperament was so special that he was out of ce with everyone around him.
As a result, Zheng yuluo only needed one look to recognize that he was the one who had saved her a few days ago.
Hes the bar owner?
Looking at his cold and deep appearance, he did look like someone who had fallen out of love.
Zheng yuluo did not remember his face, but she remembered that he had a strong smell of smoke and alcohol.
It seemed like Liu Xiaoyings gossip was very reliable. This man drank and smoked, but it was unknown if it was because of his first love.
Zheng yuluo sat quietly, while Liu Xiaoying, who was beside her, had already begun to dance and scream,Hey! Handsome, boss, lets have a drink!
Zheng yuluo was shocked by her. She did not expect Liu Xiaoying to be so open-minded. She did not even know her but she had already invited her for a drink.
Zheng yuluo had always rejected strangers, especially strange men.
But this time, for some reason, she was actually looking forward to it. She was hoping that the man whose face could not be seen clearly woulde over and drink with them.
Unfortunately, no matter how much Liu Xiaoying shouted, the other party ignored her.
Not only did he ignore her, but all the other women who tried to strike up a conversation with him also failed miserably.
He walked into the bar, skillfully mixed a few sses of wine, and drank in silence.
From the beginning to the end, he did not say a word to anyone.
Even when the bars waiter greeted him, he didnt have any reaction, making people wonder if he was deaf or mute.
However, Zheng yuluo knew that he was not. Moreover, his voice was very pleasant to the ears. It had a kind of magic that could prate ones heart, making it unforgettable.
It was past 11 p.m., And the atmosphere in the bar was at its most lively.
However, Zheng yuluo did not dare to stay any longer. If she did not go home, the serial calls at home would start again.
Before leaving, Zheng yuluo finally mustered up her courage.
She went to the washroom to tidy up her clothes and touch up her makeup. After making sure that she was in her best condition, she returned to her seat.
Zheng yuluo took a deep breath, held her ss, and walked toward the bar owner under Liu Xiaoyings surprised gaze.
Sir, have we met before?
Liu Xiaoying, who had chased after Zheng yuluo to join in the fun, almost fainted when she heard this opening remark!
Wouldnt this method of striking up a conversation seem too old-fashioned in a ce like a bar?
The owner of the bar had been hit on at least nine thousand and nine hundred times!
Just when Liu Xiaoying thought that Zheng yuluo was going to return empty-handed, the other party slowly raised his head, looked at Zheng yuluo, and said indifferently,Yes, I have.
This bar had been open for more than a month, and this was the first time Liu Xiaoying had seen the bosss face and heard his voice!
In an instant, she was conquered!
He had well-defined facial features, a perfect chin, and a pair of eyes as deep as the sea. He only needed to look at you casually and your entire heart would sink!
His voice was low and hoarse with a hint of sexiness. He was like a male anchor in the midnight Love column. Just his voice alone could make the female listeners hearts beat faster!
Xiao Fan, who was obsessed with looks and voice control, was drunk. She looked at the man sitting at the bar in a daze and forgot about Zheng yuluo beside her.
Meanwhile, Zheng yuluo did not pay attention to Liu Xiaoying. She was also shocked by her beauty.
Yes, thats right, beauty. At this moment, she could not find any other words to describe it.
A man could be so good-looking that Zheng yuluo, who had dressed up carefully today, actually felt a little ashamed!
His facial features were exquisite and very beautiful, but there was no hint of femininity. On the contrary, the aura around him and his unique cold temperament made it so that no one would misunderstand his gender.
Moreover, what surprised Zheng yuluo the most was that the other party had admitted that they had seen him before!
She had thought that he would deny it.
Jing Zhi looked at Zheng yuluo, who was standing in front of him. His face was calm, but his heart was already in turmoil.
The knuckles of his fingers that were holding the wine ss were slightly white, indicating that his heart was not calm, and that he was enduring a lot of hardships at the moment.
He was using his real appearance, but the way she looked at him was so unfamiliar.
He had always been afraid of being recognized by Zheng yuluo, so he usually wore a mask when he was with her. However, in fact, all his worries were unnecessary.
The world was really unfair. Why was it that she had been carved into his bone marrow, but he had not been able to leave a trace of her memory?
The wound in her heart that had not healed was torn apart mercilessly once again. Blood dripped out, and she was numb from the pain.
Jing Zhi lowered his head and closed his eyes, trying to hide his thoughts and endless pain.
However, even if he closed his eyes, Zheng yuluos appearance could still clearly appear in his mind.
She was bing more and more beautiful.
Today, she was wearing a slightly sexy silk dress with a spaghetti strap. The royal blue dress outlined her perfect figure. Her corbones were exquisite and beautiful, her shoulders were exposed, and her slender waist and long legs attracted the attention of the men in the bar.
Moreover, she had put on makeup today even though she had never put on makeup.
Long eyshes, beautiful eyeshadow and blush, moist red lips, and a unique charm in her pure and soft beauty. She was a little different from the Zheng yuluo of the past.
He still did not like her when she was in makeup.
He didnt like hering to such a ce dressed like this. He couldnt stand other men looking at her with frivolous and obscure eyes.
This was more painful than killing him!
However, he had no right to care about her now.
She was someone else s.
Jing Zhi finished the wine in his ss and left the bar.
Zheng yuluo was stunned for a moment, but she quickly chased after him.
He was hidden in the shadows, leaning against the wall of the bar, the cigarette between his fingers flickering.
When he saw her walking over, he threw the cigarette on the ground and stepped on it to put it out.
Zheng yuluo was a little surprised to see Jing Zhis action.
Did he know that she didnt like the smell of cigarettes?
Or was this just a coincidence?
Another doubt remained in Zheng yuluos mind. She did not ask this, but asked,Why did you save me that day?
Jing Zhi didnt realize that his subconscious behavior had aroused Zheng yuluos suspicion. He put out the smoke because he didnt want Zheng yuluo to take in second-hand smoke.
He didnt even raise his head in response to Zheng yuluos question. He just said indifferently,It was just convenient.
You often save people in passing?
Not often.
Then why did you save me?
Its nothing. Youre just a little like a friend of mine.
For some reason, Zheng yuluo blurted out,Your girlfriend?

Chapter 1317: A kiss
Trantor: 549690339
These three words made Jing Zhi freeze. He slowly raised his head, looked at Zheng yuluo, and said in an extremely cold voice,
Its none of your business! Dont tell me that youve fallen in love with me after saving you once?
Dont think too highly of yourself. There are plenty of women like you in the bar who wear revealing clothes and heavy makeup! If you have a boyfriend, you should know your ce. If youe out to hook up with other men, youll only make yourself look bad!
Get lost. A girl chatting with a man in the middle of the night, arent you afraid that the man will plot against you?
Such a venomous person was truly rare!
Zheng Yuchi was almost angered to death by him!
She had wanted to thank him. If he hadnt appeared in time that day, she would definitely have been killed. After being humiliated, she definitely wouldnt be able to live for even a minute.
All her gratitude and doubts about his identity disappeared. Zheng yuluo turned around and left in a Huff.
Her high heels ttered on the stone pavement, as if she was stepping on Jing Zhis heart. He was in so much pain that he couldnt breathe.
He wanted to chase her back immediately!
He wanted to hold her in his arms and ask her why she had forgotten about him! Even if she couldnt give him an answer, he wouldnt me her. He just wanted her to know how hard it was for him to be forgotten by her!
He wanted to press her against the wall of the bar and kiss her passionately under the dim light!
However, he could not do anything!
She didnt remember him and didnt love him anymore. Everything he did would be meaningless!
She had hurt him the most, but in the end, she had forgotten all the debts, smiled brightly, and lived a carefree life.
He was left alone in the dark night, his lonely *** torn by her!
Jing Zhi raised his hand and touched the corner of his eye. His hand was cold and wet.
His lips twitched in self-mockery and sourness, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying.
Zheng yuluo, you see, I used to look down on tears the most, but the tears Ive shed for you in this life are already enough to burst the dam.
However, as Zheng yuluo turned to leave, her tears kept falling like a broken string of beads.
She was so angry that she cursed Jing Zhi a hundred times in her heart, but she couldnt refute his words.
Because she had indeed been thinking too much!
She had dressed up on purpose today. She had changed into a sexy dress, drawn her eyebrows, applied powder, and drew her lips.
She had known Deng kun for so long, but she had never dressed up so carefully before!
However, she was scolded by him today!
What did he just say?
Revealing clothes and heavy makeup?
She didn t!
She didnt reveal anything that she shouldnt have!
Her makeup was light, and she looked much better than the other women in the bar!
Why was she not behaving herself? How did she hook up with a man? Which part of it was unbearable?
Such a sharp-tongued man, no wonder his first girlfriend didnt want him! He deserved it!
This kind of person should be alone until old age!
Zheng yuluo stood outside the bar, crying breathlessly. She was very sad.
She didnt know why, but she burst into tears after being scolded by him.
She was a girl who could smile nonchntly even when her boyfriend was fighting for another womans affection in front of her!
She had been maliciously ndered by Chen Yiqian in the office, saying that she was a Vixen, a lotus flower, and the like. However, she had always been indifferent!
What was wrong with him today?
Zheng yuluo scolded Jing Zhi a hundred times, but she suddenly stopped.
A strange sense of familiarity welled up in his heart.
It seemed that someone had once scolded her in such a vicious way!
It seemed that someone had also despised her for putting on makeup!
She had once cried so much that her eyes were swollen!
Who was it?
When did this happen?
Why didnt she remember that she used to cry so much?
Zheng yuluo turned around and looked at where Jing Zhi had been standing.
It was empty. The man who had been smoking against the wall had disappeared.
Zheng yuluos heart also suddenly felt empty. She ran over like a crazy person, crying and shouting,Come back! I have something to ask you!
She called out to him many times, but no one responded.
On the way, there were asional pedestrians who looked at her with strange eyes, but Zheng yuluo did not notice.
She knelt down and cried. She picked up the half-smoked cigarette that Jing Zhi had thrown away and held it in her hand.Why did you put out the cigarette the moment I came
There was nock of men around the bar.
Zheng yuluo had an outstanding appearance, and she was wearing very little tonight. A drunk man who had just walked out of the bar saw Zheng yuluos smooth shoulders and walked to her side with a lecherous smile, saying suggestively,Little sister, big brother can make you feelfortable. Come with big brother!
As he spoke, his fat hand was about to touch Zheng yuluos shoulder.
However, the anticipated wonderful feeling did note. Instead, with a crisp crack sound, his wrist was directly broken by someone!
Get lost!
An angry rebuke filled with killing intent scared the drunk man so much that he peed his pants. He held his broken wrist and ran away as if he was flying.
When Zheng yuluo heard this figure, she suddenly stood up.
However, she had gotten up too quickly and bumped into the persons chest.
Her nose scrunched up and tears fell uncontrobly.
You didnt leave?
Jing Zhi did not say anything. He just looked at Zheng yuluo with a deep gaze.
Of course, he didnt leave. How could he be at ease when she was dressed like this in the bar?
Jing Zhi reached out and held Zheng yuluos soft hand. Zheng yuluo was slightly shocked, thinking that he was going to hold her hand.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, he pried open her fingers and took out the half of the cigarette. He asked in a low voice,What are you doing with this?
Zheng yuluo had wanted to hide the half of the cigarette and bring it home, but now that he had found it, she was a little angry.Its none of your business, give it back to me!
Jing Zhi didnt give it to her. Instead, he threw it far away.
Zheng yuluo stomped her feet in anger. She was about to pick it up, but Jing Zhi stopped her.
She was almost half-hugged by him!
You want a cigarette?
Jing Zhis low and sexy voice rang in her ears. It was a little domineering, but also a little gentle.I have a box here. You can have it all. Dont pick up the ones on the ground.
As he spoke, he handed a whole box of cigarettes to Zheng yuluo.
I dont want this!
Then what kind do you want?
I want you to smoke it, I want you to extinguish it for me!
But she couldnt say that, and Zheng yuluo was too embarrassed to say it. She had already reached her limit bying out to look for Jing Zhi and pestering him with questions.
However, even if Zheng yuluo didnt say it, Jing Zhi seemed to understand her.
You want the one Ive smoked? he asked in a low voice.
Zheng yuluos face turned red in an instant, and she was so embarrassed that she didnt know what to do.
Jing Zhi couldnt hold it in any longer. He wrapped his arms around her waist, covered her eyes, and pressed her against the wall of the bar. He lowered his head and kissed her red lips.
Chapter 1318
Chapter 1318: The initial stage of love
Trantor: 549690339
Perhaps it was because he had desired it for too long, but Jing Zhis kiss wasnt gentle. It was overbearing and intense.
Zheng yuluo did not react at all and forgot to resist.
She had even forgotten that a few months ago, when Deng kun wanted to kiss her, she had vomited directly, which disgusted Deng kun. Later, he had a psychological shadow when he wanted to kiss her.
Today, she was suddenly kissed by an unknown stranger, and her heart actually beat faster.
After a while, when Zheng yuluo was about to suffocate, she finally realized what had happened.
She pushed Jing Zhi away in a hurry.
She had thought that it would take a lot of effort to push him away since he was hugging her so tightly and kissing her so deeply.
In the end, she only used a little force and the other party let go of her.
Then, his tall figure quickly left the ce and disappeared into the dark.
Zheng yuluo stood there, stunned for a long time.
His warm breath seemed to still linger between her lips and teeth. It had the sweet taste of the first love cocktail, and the sweet taste of the orange seemed to wrap her whole body.
Did he also like to drink first love?
Oh, thats right. This was originally a cocktail he had created.
But why was it that every time she smelled this scent, she felt a sense of familiarity?
Zheng yuluo tried to recall, but she could not remember when she had drunk such a drink.
However, when he kissed her, not only did she not reject him, but she also felt a faint joy and happiness.
It was obvious that this was extremely illogical and not in line with her personality.
There were more and more suspicious points about this person.
Zheng yuluo touched her lips and went back to the bar shyly, then left with Liu Xiaoying.
When she drove home and heard her parents and sisterining that she was toote and didnt pick up her phone, Zheng yuluos lips were still slightly curved up when she returned to her bedroom.
She had not been this happy for a long time.
Before she went to bed, Zheng yuluo took out the box of cigarettes that Jing Zhi had given her and sniffed it. The faint smell of tobo gave her a strange sense of satisfaction.
She held the box of cigarettes and fell asleep.
As for Jing Zhi, he only returned to his own home after silently watching Zheng yuluo return home.
Jin Xin had been in Jing Zhis car the whole time, and he had been watching everything that had happened between him and Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhi, if you torture yourself like this, why dont you tell Zheng yuluo about your past? maybe shell remember you. Most memory loss is temporary, and its caused by some stimtion. You can stimte her again to wake up her memory.
Jing Zhi threw his car keys on the table,y down on the sofa, and started to drink.
I dont need to.
He was too impulsive today.
He shouldnt have done that, but sometimes, the body didnt listen to the brainsmand at all. It just did things based on instinct.
Why not? I think Zheng yuluo seems to like you again. Last time in the bar, she even asked Lou Ziyi if someone had hit him before. This proves that she didnt forget about it.
This kind of news couldfort Jing Zhi a little, but it was nothingpared to the pain he felt.
He had already lost control of everything.
So what if you like me? maybe youll forget me again when you turn around. Shes doing fine now, she can just continue living like this.
Youre so cruel. Youre cruel to her, but youre even more cruel to yourself,Jin Xin said, ncing at him.
Jing Zhi was suddenly enraged by what he had said.
He roared,who is the cruel one?! She was the one who was cruel enough to forget mepletely! I was standing in front of her, but she didnt recognize me at all!
Jin Xin knew that Jing Zhi couldnt ept that Zheng yuluo had forgotten about him. He found it unbelievable too.
Since you dont want her to change, then dont ever appear in front of her again.
Jing Zhi didnt look very happy after he kissed her today. His eyes were wet.
Perhaps, to a proud man like him, forcefully kissing a woman who had chosen to forget him was a form of humiliation.
What he wanted was not this kind of one-sided love, but for Zheng yuluo to be able to regain her memory, remember him, and be willing to kiss him.
Jing Zhi calmed down very quickly after his anger subsided.
He was able to control his emotions very well now. Even if he was irritable, he would quickly suppress it with his willpower.
Long periods of suffering, suppression, and pain had forced Jing Zhi to grow up quickly.
I dont want to appear either, he said in a very soft voice.But shes always in danger. I cant just leave without worry.
Jing Zhi drank some wine and fell asleep.
He had kissed Zheng yuluo today. Although he despised his act of forcing a kiss on her, a kiss could relieve a lot of his pain.
He just wasnt sure if Deng kun had also kissed Zheng yuluo, or if he had also been passionate with Zheng yuluo.
He didnt dare to think about it because he was afraid that he would go crazy!
He was afraid that he might identally kill Deng kun.
When Zheng yuluo woke up the next day, she felt a little ashamed.
Because she had dreamed of Jing Zhist night.
Although she did not seem to remember his face, he kissed her again in her dream!
When Zheng yuluo was washing her face, she suddenly patted her face with cold water.Zheng yuluo, youre crazy! How can you dream of such a thing!
She washed up and ate as if nothing had happened. Then, she changed her shoes and drove out.
However, she was not good at pretending. The whole family could tell that Zheng yuluo was in a good mood today.
She couldnt hide the smile in her eyes.
When they arrived at thepany, Liu Xiaoying yawned sleepily. She looked at the radiant Zheng yuluo and asked curiously,We bothe homete ande to work early in the morning. Why am I as tired as a dog and have dark circles like a Panda, but you are so energetic and have such good skin without any dark circles?
Zheng yuluo blinked and took out a small mirror to look at herself.
The girl in the mirror had a beautiful face and a faint smile on her lips. She was in high spirits and did not look tired at all.
I dont feel tired. Xiao Ying, maybe youre not sleeping well?
Liu Xiaoying shook her head,no, no, no. This has nothing to do with the quality of sleep. It has to do with ones mental state. Luoyu, I think youre very simr to a certain type of person now.
What kind of person?
Its the kind of ignorant girl in the early stages of a passionate rtionship.
Zheng yuluo was stunned. It was impossible, right?
She just felt that she was in a good mood. How could she be in the early stages of a hot rtionship?
It was proven that if you had once fallen deeply in love with someone, even if you had lost your memory, you would still fall in love with him again when you see him again.
A persons aesthetics, preferences, and touching points would not change just because of amnesia.
What was meant toe woulde.
Chapter 1319
Chapter 1319: Im Zheng yuluo, what about you?
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo did not know where the passion came from. She only knew that she had lost interest in makeup.
Just because he was scolded for putting on heavy makeupst night.
Actually, she didnt really like to put on makeup. Putting on so much makeup on her face was not only troublesome, but also bad for her skin.
Her skin was as fair as Jade, her lips were pink and lustrous, and her eyebrows only needed a little touch-up to form a nice straight line, so she looked good without makeup.
Zheng yuluo went to work normally during the day. After work in the afternoon, she reported to the Waiting bar almost every day.
At first, Deng kun felt that this would reduce the opportunity tomunicate with Zheng yuluo, and he was worried that she would go to the bar and learn bad things from some women.
However, he soon realized that his worries were unnecessary. Zheng yuluo especially disliked being touched by others.
They had lunch together in the afternoon and asionally went to watch a movie in the evening. She was very gentle and had no intention of breaking up.
Deng kuns life was much morefortable without the need to pick up Zheng yuluo to and from work.
In order not to bump into Zheng yuluo, he never went to the Waiting bar again. Instead, he went to other bars to hook up with young girls.
Zheng yuluo and Deng kun were in two different bars, which made Chen Yixi very worried!
She had always wanted to find something to use against the two of them, but she could not do it at the same time. She could only run between the two bars and monitor one person a day.
On Deng kuns side, he naturally changed his femalepanion every day, and they were hugging each other very intimately. No one would believe that nothing had happened between him and those women at night.
However, when Chen Yixuan sent the photo to Zheng yuluos phone, her expression did not change at all.
She even said with a smile,Chen Yiyi, you must have misunderstood. These are just some friends of my boyfriend. They have a good rtionship and its normal for them to be closer. It must have been hard on you to take so many photos.
Chen Yihan looked at Zheng yuluo in shock. She felt that Zheng yuluo was either a brainless idiot or an expert in acting!
To be able to watch her boyfriend fool around with another woman without a change in expression, this psychological quality was probably unparalleled!
In fact, Zheng yuluo was not acting, nor was she psychologically strong, but she did not care what Deng kun did at all.
Without love, there would be no expectations.
Deng kun was ying well with other women, and Zheng yuluo was quite happy. She even urged Deng kun to hug her, and she would push him aside.
It was the bar owner who made Zheng yuluo feel a strong sense of anticipation.
Zheng yuluo asked around and realized that no one knew the name of the bar owner!
On the bars business license, the name of the legal representative was the bar manager, Jin San.
The name was a little strange and casual. It didnt sound like a real name.
The bar owner had not appeared for a whole week since thest time he had appeared.
Liu Xiaoying drank her wine in a carefree manner as she shook her head.Hey, yuluo, dont you think the owner of the bar we sawst time looks a little familiar?
Zheng yuluo stared at the door, smiled, and said,No, have you seen him anywhere else?
Zheng yuluo really didnt find Jing Zhi familiar, but she did feel a sense of familiarity.
Now that Liu Xiaoying actually had one as well, she couldnt help but feel that it was even stranger.
I took a quick nce at himst time. He always wore a hat and I couldnt see his face. I cant even remember what he looks like now.
Liu Xiaoying was still a little infatuated as her eyes lit up,Why do you think he talked to youst time? It actually raised its head, how rare! Ive benefited greatly from following you!
I just dont know why, but I feel like Ive seen him somewhere before. But thinking about it carefully, I dont think Ive ever met him before!
Thest time they had met, it had been so short and rushed that Liu Xiaoying hadnt been able to react in time. The reason why she found Jing Zhis appearance familiar was because she had seen him on TV and in advertisements countless times.
Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, had forgotten everything about Jing Zhi, let alone the fact that he had been a celebrity.
The entertainment industry changed very quickly, and new actors and singers emerged one after another. Jing Zhi, who had left the industry a long time ago, had been forgotten by many people.
Have you never seen him before?
Zheng yuluo was a little disappointed.
She didnt know why, but she looked forward to that persons appearance every day. As if she was possessed, she waited and waited.
Such a mysterious and cold person had actually crossed paths with her three times. Zheng yuluo had a strange feeling in her heart and always wanted to find him again.
A person must have his own social circle, right?
Was he only running this bar?
Oh, no, this bar was also managed by a manager, and he almost never came.
Then what did he usually do?
Also, Zheng yuluo really wanted to know the story of the bar owner and his first girlfriend.
He had said before that she looked like a friend of his, which was why he had saved her.
Zheng yuluo touched her face. Did she look like someone else other than her sister, Zheng Yuwei?
Could there be such a coincidence?
While Zheng yuluos thoughts were running wild, Liu Xiaoying, who was beside her, had already run to someone elses table like a tomboy, ying finger-guessing games and drinking.
Perhaps the quality of the ss was not very good, Zheng yuluo put the ss down a little too hard, and the ss immediately broke into pieces.
The sharp cross-section of the ss cut open a wound on Zheng yuluos thumb, and blood gushed out instantly.
Ouch! Zheng yuluo cried out in pain and hurriedly picked up a tissue to wipe the blood from her fingers.
However, the tissue had been spilled with wine earlier. Once it touched her wound, the pain caused by the alcohol made Zheng Yucai shed tears.
A figure suddenly squatted in front of her, picked up her hand, and checked her wound.
Zheng yuluo was stunned and instinctively wanted to pull her hand back.
Dont move!
The unfamiliar yet somewhat familiar voice made Zheng yuluo immediately realize who the person squatting in front of her with a hat covering half of his face was.
She was surprised and delighted!
She had been staring at the door the whole time, so how did she not know when he had arrived?
Zheng yuluo sat still obediently and watched him take out two band-aids from his pocket to wrap her hands.
She wanted to say that it was fine. It was just a small cut on the ss. She just needed to wipe the blood off. There was no need to wrap it up.
However, she did not say it on purpose.
What if he didnt want to buy her a bag?
Zheng yuluo consciously thanked him in a gentle voice. After hesitating for a while, she asked,Whats your name?
Jing Zhis body stiffened. Its not important,
How can it not be important? Youve helped me so many times, I should at least know your name! Im Zheng yuluo, whats your name?
Chapter 1320
Chapter 1320: You are not a stranger
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo looked expectantly at the man who was squatting in front of her, but still looked very tall. Her heart was beating wildly like a deer in the headlights.
His fingers were slightly cold, and the joints were distinct. They were slender and good-looking.
More importantly, Zheng yuluo felt an inexplicable sense of security and Familiarity when her hand was in his!
Had someone ever held her hand like this?
Deng kun had shaken her hand before, but Zheng yuluo had never felt this way before.
She wanted to know Jing Zhis name, but he quickly got up and left after wrapping her fingers.
He had no intention of telling her.
He was a little indifferent and a little proud.
How could someone be so secretive about his own name?
Zheng yuluo was very confused, but this did not stop her from chasing after him.
Jing Zhi was drinking at the bar while Zheng yuluo stood beside him and chatted with him.
To be exact, Zheng yuluo was talking to herself.
Whats your name? I cant just shout hey every time I see you!
Ive told you my name, so you should also tell me your name! This is basic courtesy. Youre not being gentlemanly by not saying anything!
My friend and I thought you looked familiar. Have we met before?
Um Can you take off your hat? Its a little weird to wear a hat in the middle of the night. Besides, I cant see your face at all with your head lowered.
Zheng yuluo was talking non-stop, but Jing Zhi kept drinking without a word.
He had never known that Zheng yuluo could be so lively and talkative.
Her soft voice made Jing Zhi want her from the bottom of his heart.
Now, his requirements were already very, very low. He was already very satisfied to be able to hear Zheng yuluos words. He did not dare to have any other expectations.
He was afraid that his appearance would destroy her current peaceful andfortable life.
He was afraid that his possession would cause her to fall into eternal damnation again.
Jing Zhi didnt take off his hat when Zheng yuluo asked him to. Instead, he pressed the brim of his hat down to cover more of his face.
In the past, when he sat in the bar, there would be girlsing up to talk to him, but none of them were as persistent as Zheng yuluo.
When he was extremely cold, no girl could stand it.
Why did Zheng yuluo, who was obviously psychologically fragile, not mind his disregard for her at all?
Fortunately, Zheng yuluo was pestering him. If Zheng yuluo pestered other men like this, he would be jealous to death.
Zheng yuluo was full of curiosity about Jing Zhi. She thought he was very mysterious and charming. Later, she sat beside him and asked him all kinds of questions.
Her mouth was dry from all the talking. Jing Zhi handed her a cocktail and she finished it without hesitation.
Another cup!
Jing Zhi finally raised his head and said,In the future, dont drink wine from strangers.
Youre not a stranger, and I dont drink it casually.
Zheng yuluo looked at his almost perfect handsome face, knocked her head, and said with a smile,If you wanted to harm me, you didnt have to save me before. I think youre my Savior! But, benefactor, you should tell me your name, right?
The Zheng yuluo in front of her was very different from her before she lost her memory.
In the past, every time Jing Zhi saw her, she would always cry.
But now, she was smiling all the time. Her smile was gentle, bright, and charming. Jing Zhis eyes were hurt by her smile.
No wonder Zheng yuluo had forgotten about him.
Perhaps, he was the source of her pain.
Every day that they were together, she had not had an easy time.
Deng kuns love was shallow and didnt carry much weight. She didnt love him deeply, so she could smile at everything. No matter what Deng kun did, she could be calm.
It was undoubtedly painful to be forgotten by the woman he loved, but if Zheng yuluo could forget him and free herself from the shackles, then he would let her forget him forever!
For her, Jing Zhi was willing to bear the pain alone, to remember their love.
It was alreadyte at night, but the bar was still noisy. Zheng yuluo had no intention of leaving.
If she went backte tonight, she would definitely be scolded, but she didnt care.
She was already an adult, but her parents and even her sister always treated her like a child.
She didnt like the feeling of powerlessness when she was being controlled.
In the end, Jing Zhi left first, and Zheng yuluo left the bar reluctantly.
As soon as she left, Chen Yixuan also left.
She went to another bar and found Deng kun, who reeked of alcohol. She twisted her body and sat next to him.Hey, Mr. Deng, why didnt you get a beauty to apany you today? Were you waiting for me?
Deng kun had drunk a little too much, so he did not hide his disgust for Chen Yiqian.
Get lost. I didnt scold you hard enoughst time, did I? Why dont you take a look at yourself in the mirror? youre trying to seduce me with such a ghostly appearance? Idiot!
It had to be said that Chen Yiran was a bit of a B * tch.
When men ttered and coaxed her, she would ignore them. However, if any man ignored her, she would keep sticking to him. She waspletely shameless.
She wasnt actually ugly. She had a pretty face, a good figure, and was good at dressing up. She was a beauty in the bar.
She hugged Deng kuns arm and said in an ambiguous voice,Deng kun, in what way do you think Im not as good as Zheng yuluo? My legs are longer than hers, my waist is slimmer than hers, and my chest is bigger than hers. If you dont believe me, you can touch
Deng kun could not help but look down at Chen Yixis half-exposed chest.
It was round and full, white and lustrous. It was indeed very beautiful and very attractive!
Chen Yiqian smiled confidently when she saw Deng kuns gaze.
She knew it, there was no man in this world that she couldnt handle!
Especially a yboy and sanctimonious man like Deng kun, he couldnt resist her body at all.
Chen Yiqian leaned her entire body against Deng kuns chest and said in a sweet voice,If you perform well tonight, Ill give you a surprise, a surprise about Zheng yuluo! Do you want it?
Upon hearing the three words Zheng yuluo, Deng kun immediately sobered up!
He pushed Chen Yiqian away and snorted.Youd better not y tricks on me. If you have something to say, then say it!
I wont tell you. Unless you be my man, theres a secret that youll never know! Chen Yixi smiled enchantingly.
Deng kun squinted his eyes and cursed Chen Yiqian in his heart as a B * tch. However, his face suddenly revealed his signature gentle smile.
He held Chen Yiqians hand and brought her out of the bar. They went straight to a nearby hotel.
Chapter 1321
Chapter 1321: The engagement
Trantor: 549690339
A few days ago, Deng kun still felt that Chen Yiqian and Zheng yuluo were in the samepany, so he should not be involved with Chen Yiqian.
But today, he felt that it would be a waste not to sleep with her. He should enjoy such a stunner first.
If he did, he would get a secret about Zheng yuluo. He had made a big profit!
However, when Deng kun found out about a secret from Chen Yiqian, he did not feel that he had profited at all. He only felt that he was wearing a Big Green hat that shone brightly!
Chen yizhao recorded a video. In the video, Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi were sitting side by side. The two of them were very close to each other. Zheng yuluo was talking andughing the entire time. She looked happy and excited.
The mans face could not be seen clearly. His hat covered his face, and he could only see that he was a tall young man.
Not only that, Chen Yiqian also showed him a few photos.
In the photo, Zheng yuluo and the young man were kissing intensely.
Simrly, only Zheng yuluos face could be seen in the photo. The mans face could not be seen clearly. He was still wearing a ck shirt and a ck hat, only his chin was exposed.
Zheng yuluo was held tightly in his arms, looking weak and petite.
Deng kuns anger instantly rose from his feet to his head!
He had not even kissed Zheng yuluo yet!
He had wanted to kiss her once before, but she suddenly vomited!
She said that she would not be too intimate with him before marriage. She said that she did not like intimate contact. She said that she needed time to slowly adapt!
He believed it!
He actually believed it!
He, Deng kun, had yed with women for many years and had yed with countless women. He had thought that he had really met a pure, noble and elegant woman!
So it was all an act!
Deng kun was so angry that he smashed his phone. The crystal ashtrays and decorative vases in the hotel were all smashed.
Chen Yiqian did not expect the usually gentle and refined Deng kun to be like a Mad Dog, smashing anything he caught!
She was so scared that she curled up on the bed, not daring to make a sound when her phone was smashed.
However, Deng kun quickly returned to his usual gentleness.
He went to the bed and pressed Chen Yiqian under him. He said in a gentle voice,Im sorry, I was too angry just now. Did I scare you? Ill take you to buy a new phone when the sun rises.
Chen Yiqian looked at Deng kun in horror. She suddenly realized that Deng kun was a terrifying person!
One moment he was gentle, the next moment he was fierce, one moment he was cheerful, the next moment he was sinister, like a pervert!
She wanted to struggle, but it was no use.
Deng kun had begun to invade her body unceremoniously and gnawed at her body as if he was venting his anger. In a short while, she was already covered in wounds!
Release me! Youre hurting me!
Hahaha, bitch! You still know pain? Wheres that flirtatious attitude you had when you seduced me?
Deng kun, you are not human! My chest is bleeding from your bite!
Bite you to death! He deserved it! Go to hell! Zheng yuluo, how dare you make me a cuckold! Ill kill you!
Youre crazy! Im not Zheng yuluo, Im Chen Yiqian!
Zheng yuluo knew nothing about Deng kun and Chen Yixi being together.
In fact, even if she knew, she would not care.
She was inexplicably happy to see Jing Zhi today. Even though she didnt manage to get his name, she was still happy.
When she went to bed that night, she no longer held the box of expensive diamonds in her hand. Instead, she carefully held the box of cigarettes that Jing Zhi had given her.
When she got up in the morning, she put the cigarettes into the pocket of the gray mens coat in the closet.
The box of expensive diamonds was also inside.
Zheng yuluo had always thought that the owner of the diamond and the coat should be the same person, so she had put the diamond in the coat.
It was purely a subconscious act to put the cigarette in.
She didnt realize that the owner of the cigarette and the coat was the same. She just felt that these were all mens things and should be put together.
After breakfast, Zheng yuluo went out without a care after being criticized by her parents for returningte again.
At noon, Deng kun came to look for Zheng yuluo as usual to have lunch at the restaurant downstairs.
He was still gentle and considerate, taking care of Zheng yuluo as ifst nights incident had never happened.
However, that night, Deng kun drove his parents to the Zheng family to officially propose marriage.
What was the best way to destroy a person?
Was it a breakup?
Was it to ruin her reputation?
No, none of them.
He wanted to marry her and imprison herpletely! He wouldnt let her go out and wouldnt let her see the man she liked again!
He had slept with another woman in front of her, and then he had tortured her in bed with another man! Until he was tortured to death!
Having been in a rtionship with Zheng yuluo for more than a year, Deng kun still knew a lot of Zheng yuluos taboos.
She really didnt like it when others touched her.
Since that was the case, he should use this method to disgust her to death.
Deng kun was an extremely selfish person. It was fine for him to indulge in debauchery outside and have sex with countless women, but if Zheng yuluo did anything wrong to him, he would go crazy and want to destroy her!
The Deng family did not inform them in advance when they came to visit, so Zheng yuluo did not go home at all that night. She was still in the bar, waiting for someone to appear.
The phone in her bag was ringing non-stop. It was bombarded with phone calls, text messages, and WeChat messages.
Zheng yuluo thought that her family wasining about hering out to y again and was urging her toe home early, but she didnt even respond.
She waited the whole night, but Jing Zhi didnt show up. She thought that Jing Zhi hadnte, so she left in a Huff.
Jing Zhi watched her leave with her head lowered. He followed her silently, ready to send her home in secret.
Jin Xin, who was standing behind him, shook his head. He deeply suspected that he was too old to keep up with the thoughts of the young.
Zheng yuluo had obviously forgotten about Jing Zhi, but it was also obvious that she had fallen for Jing Zhi again. Jing Zhi had been hiding his feelings all this time. He seemed to distance himself from Zheng yuluo on the surface, but in fact, he was almost bing her 24-hour bodyguard.
Maybe Jing Zhi would only be able to let go of her after Zheng yuluo got married and had a child.
However, ording to the current trend of development, it was still unknown whether Zheng yuluo could marry Deng kun.
The next day, Jin Xins doubts had all be clear.
The Zheng family had already agreed to the Deng familys marriage proposal. They were preparing to get Deng kun and Zheng yuluo engaged this month, then go to get the marriage certificate, and then hold the wedding after that.
This situation was verymon these days. Many young couples would register their marriage before holding their wedding.
However, the engagement and marriage had been decided without her knowing!
When she got up in the morning, her parents informed her that she was getting engaged at the end of the month and getting married next month. Zheng yuluo was in disbelief.I didnt agree, and the engagement and marriage are already set? Who is getting married?

Chapter 1322: Anger
Trantor: 549690339
Luoluo, youve been in a rtionship with Deng kun for such a long time. Your rtionship has always been good. Isnt marriage a natural thing?
As long as Zheng yuluo was not married, Zheng Jing would not be able to rest easy.
He had asked Mu Qing many times about it. The probability of memory loss was not low, and as long as there was an opportunity, the memory woulde back slowly.
He was afraid that Zheng yuluo would go to Jing Zhi again if she regained her memory, so he wanted to get her married as soon as possible while she still had no memory.
Zheng Jing thought that with Zheng yuluos personality, she would not divorce easily after marriage. Then she would settle down and live a good life with Deng kun.
In fact, he had been waiting for the Deng family toe and discuss the marriage. Marriage naturally required the male party to take the initiative while the female party had to be reserved.
He didnt expect the Deng family toe so soon, so even if Zheng yuluo wasnt at homest night, he had decided on the marriage.
Zheng yuluo still could not believe that her parents would marry her to the Deng family without even asking.
Her beautiful eyes were covered with ayer of moisture. Her voice was choked with anger.This is modern society, not ancient times! Its my freedom to fall in love and get married, why must I listen to your arrangements? I was thest one to know about the engagement. Are you so sure that I will marry Deng kun?
Seeing that her daughter was angry, Zheng Lun said at once,Luoluo, we kept calling youst night, but you didnt answer our calls or reply to our messages. We couldnt contact you even if we wanted to!
You couldnt contact mest night, so you sold me out, right?
Zheng yuluo stood in the living room, her voice almost screaming.You couldnt contact mest night. Cant you wait for me toe back before giving the Deng family an answer? Can I still not go home forever? Why are you in such a hurry? Why was the Deng family in such a hurry? Its all a conspiracy!
Sister, dont be angry! Mom and dad will never harm you. Calm down first, we will never sell you, and we cant have any conspiracies!
Zheng Yuwei had never seen her sister, who was as gentle as water, so hysterical.
She was especially worried that her sister would be provoked and do something stupid again.
She wanted to hug Zheng yuluos arm, but she was pushed away.
Wei Wei, you stay away from me too! You know better than anyone what kind of person Deng kun is. Why did you agree to let me marry him? Were twin sisters, and youre the person I trust the most. But why have you been lying to me all this time?
The tears in Zheng yuluos eyes dripped down inrge drops. She clearly looked exactly the same as Zheng Yuwei, but she had a temperament that made people pity her.
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun felt their hearts ache when she cried.
Luoluo, this was supposed to be a joyous asion, but look at what youve done to it.
Zheng Jing didnt expect that his decision would cause such a big reaction from his daughter. He frowned and said,I thought you liked Deng kun? Why was she not happy at all when she heard that she was going to be engaged to him? How did Wei Wei know what kind of person Deng kun was? What kind of person is he?
You like it? What do you mean by like?
Zheng yuluo straightened her back and raised her head. She had always been weak, but now she was sharper than ever.
If you guys like it, then I like it? You forced Deng kun on me, I didnt choose him myself!
From the moment I woke up more than a year ago, you guys have been trying your best to force men to my side! Even if I refuse Deng kun, there will still be Zhang Kun and Li Kun!
I live in your arrangements, in your control! I lost my memory and cant get it back, so you guys teamed up and lied to me! Would it work? Its no use. Even if Im in love and married, my heart will always be empty, like a walking corpse!
Zheng yuluo wiped her tears and showed a sad smile.I know that you love me, but there are many ways to love. I wont be happy if I live ording to your wishes. Would you be satisfied if I forced a smile every day?
No, sister, we all hope that you will live a happy life! Youre indeed much more cheerful than before!
In the past? Which past?
Zheng yuluo suddenly turned her head and looked at her sister.Tell me, why wasnt I happy before? Who is the person that I have forgotten?
At this moment, Zheng yuluo finally had some of the aura of an older sister.
She was calm, sharp, and decisive. She was apletely different person from her usual gentle and easy-going self.
The long period of suppression and obedience had forced her to the edge, causing her to explode in silence.
She had always known that she had forgotten someone.
She had never thought that she would marry Deng kun so soon.
If she wanted to get married, it would have to be after she had recovered her memories.
She had to know what had happened in the past.
Luoluo, dont be so suspicious all day. You havent forgotten anything. Your sister said that youre more cheerful than before. She means that youve be more cheerful after you fell in love. Deng kun has contributed a lot to this.
No wonder he was once the best criminal Police in A city. His logical thinking ability was unparalleled. He instantly fixed the loopholes in Zheng Yuweis words perfectly.
Zheng yuluos eyes swept across her father, mother, and sister.
The expressions on the three peoples faces were wless. It seemed that she was really suspicious and imagined that someone had once existed in her life.
In the past year, Zheng yuluo had asked simr questions countless times.
The result was the same every time.
She couldnt get anything out of him.
Zheng yuluo suddenly lost the desire to speak. She did not want to argue anymore. After all, she could not win against the three of them no matter what.
All the aura on her body disappeared in an instant, and she turned back into that soft, weak, obedient daughter.
She quietly and slowly returned to her room, closed the door, and sat on the bed, crying silently.
It was already past nine in the morning when she wiped her tears and left the house.
It was almost Teno clock when they arrived at thepany.
This was the first time she waste for work.
However, everyone seemed to understand her. Some even came over tofort her, patting her on the shoulder and saying,dont be sad, dont be angry.
Go ahead and cry, Ill lend you my shoulder! Liu Xiaoying said directly.
Zheng yuluo was confused. The people in thepany should not know about her engagement with Deng kun. Even if they did, they would congratte her. Why did they ask her not to be sad?
Little Ying, what happened? Why do I feel like everyone is Very concerned about me?
Liu Xiaoyings eyes widened,no way, you dont know?
Know what?
Your boyfriend slept with Chen yizhao! She posted a photo of them in bed on her moments!
Chapter 1323
Chapter 1323: Break up
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo blinked her eyes and was a little confused.No way? Wasnt Chen yizhao afraid of being called a mistress when she posted a photo of them? This will affect her reputation, right?
Miss Zheng, can you focus on something more normal?
Liu Xiaoying was so angry that she was about to stomp her feet. She pinched Zheng yuluos face in exasperation.You shouldnt be concerned about a certain shameless persons reputation. What you should be concerned about is that your boyfriend cheated on you! Hes not a good person. You should call him immediately, give him a good scolding, and then kick him out!
I dont think its possible to kick him out.
Zheng yuluo turned on her phone and looked for Chen yizhaos WeChat moments. She said softly,Deng kun brought his parents to my housest night to propose marriage, and it seemed to be very formal. My parents have already agreed to it. They will be engaged at the end of the month and we will get the marriage certificate next month.
Liu Xiaoying was bbergasted!
She wanted to say something, but there were too many things to say about this matter. She, who had always been sharp-tongued, actually didnt know where to start!
After a long while, she stammered,Last night Didnt you stay in the bar? That, that Your engagement with Deng kun was decided by your parents. Did they not need to discuss it with you? Did your familye from two hundred years ago?
Maybe they think that marrying Deng kun is the best choice.
Zheng yuluo had calmed down by now. She carefully looked at the photos sent by Chen yizhao and a long paragraph of happy words, then saved them one by one.
He really had to thank Chen Yiqian!
This girl was really a good person. At such a critical time, she gave away such important evidence.
Zheng yuluo felt that the gloomy sky seemed to have be sunny today.
Then youll just listen to their arrangements? Deng kun is so good at pretending. We all thought that you two were a loving couple, but now we know that hes not a good person. Hurry up and tell your parents!
Dont worry, Zheng yuluo said with a faint smile.Ill tell you when I need to.
Yuluo, why do I feel like youre not angry at all? I thought youd cry when you saw the photo! You see, I even prepared a tissue for you!
Zheng yuluo looked down and saw that Liu Xiaoying was indeed holding a box of tissues in her hand.
She felt a little warm in her heart. She felt that not everyone in the world thought that Deng kun was a good person. Before Deng kun slept with Chen Yixuan, Liu Xiaoying had already said that Deng kun was fake.
If she had not lost her memory and felt that she had lost her first love, perhaps she would have followed her parents arrangement, married Deng kun, and spent the rest of her life with him.
Deng kuns unfaithfulness was not a big deal to her. As long as he respected her and took care of her, it would be fine.
Anyway, only Deng kun could make her feel a little more pleasing to the eye. The others might not be better than Deng kun.
But now, a mysterious stranger had appeared in her life, and he was much more pleasing to the eye than Deng kun.
At least, she was unexpectedly able to ept his kiss!
Thinking of that person, Zheng yuluo felt sweet in her heart, and even her smile became deeper.
Little Ying, thank you for your concern, but Im fine. My tears are precious, I dont think Ill need the tissue.
Zheng yuluo usually did not cry much, especially when Deng kun was a yboy. She had never shed a tear.
She smiled as she hugged Liu Xiaoyings arm,Lets go to the bar tonight. Do you have time?he asked.
Dont tell me youve really fallen for the bar owner?Liu Xiaoyingughed.
Zheng yuluo did not admit it, but she just smiled and said,You dont say, hes very handsome! And you look very safe!
I admit that hes handsome, but where did you get this sense of security from? I looked at the bar owner and felt insecure. Hes too cold, and he has so many women chasing after him. He even has a first love that he cant forget. This person is not a good marriage partner!
Liu Xiaoying was a person who was especially infatuated with handsome men. However, she was usually clear-headed enough to realize that it was impossible for her to be with handsome men.
She was infatuated with Jing Zhi, but it was only for a few days.
Jing Zhi would never fall for her, and even if he did, she wouldnt be able to keep him.
In her opinion, the gentle and demure Zheng yuluo was not suitable to be with someone like Jing Zhi, so she wanted to persuade her to give up.
Dont randomly find a man because of Deng kun! Youre so beautiful, you have a good personality, and you have a good family background and education. You can find a good husband without Deng kun!
Stop nagging. Are you going or not? If you don t, Ill go by myself!
Go, go, go. Youve spoken, so how can I not go? We might even see the owner of the bar there, hes a very handsome man!
Zheng yuluoughed.Oh, I understand. You dont let me get close to the bar owner because youre thinking about him!
Pei Pei Pei, nonsense! Am I, Liu Xiaoying, that kind of person? Im just purely admiring beautiful things. I dont have any physical or psychological impulses for him! If you can take her down, Ill be the first one to be happy for you!
Zheng yuluo and Liu Xiaoying chatted andughed, while Chen Yixi, who was not far away, pursed her lips in disdain.
Her boyfriend had slept with another woman, but Zheng yuluo could still smile so happily. She was really good at pretending!
She would see if she could still smile when Deng kun taught her a lesson in the future.
Chen Yiyi walked in front of Zheng yuluo in her high heels and said condescendingly with the posture of a winner,Oh, yuluo, Im so sorry. Deng kun insisted on being with me. I didnt mean to ruin your rtionship. Its such a pity that you guys broke up!
Before Zheng yuluo could speak, the hot-tempered Liu Xiaoying could not bear to listen any longer.
Chen Yiqian, youre acting so self-righteously even though youre a mistress now? Who said that yuluo and Deng kun had broken up? You clearly know that theyre still in a rtionship and that their rtionship is very good, but you still want to ruin it. Your reputation in thepany is already ruined! Everyones on guard against you, or else who knows when youll steal their husband away!
You didnt break up?
Chen Yiqian pretended to be surprised.But when Deng kun was with me, he said that he had broken up with Zheng yuluo! Could it be that Zheng yuluo was pestering Deng kun alone? Aiya, thats true, I really cant find a man as good as Deng kun now. No wonder Zheng yuluo cant bear to part with him and has been pestering him shamelessly.
Liu Xiaoyings face turned red with anger as he shouted,Youre shameless!
Liu Xiaoying, youre really brainless. Look at Zheng yuluo, shes not even saying anything. What are you shouting for?
Zheng yuluo suddenly spoke into her phone,Deng kun, did you hear what Chen Yiqian said just now? As you wish, were officially broken up from today onwards! I will definitely not pester you. I wish you and Chen yizhao happiness!
Chapter 1324
Chapter 1324: Chapter 1324-familiar
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluos phone was on speaker mode, and Deng kuns anxious voice came out of the phone,Luoluo, dont misunderstand. I have nothing to do with Chen Yiqian! Dont listen to her nonsense. My parents and I just went to your housest night to ask for your hand in marriage. Were getting married soon, you have to believe me!
Many people in thepany would have believed Deng kun if Chen Yiqian had not posted the bed photo on her moments.
After all, he had been too good to Zheng yuluo. He was a good man who was meticulous and loved her.
However, now, everyone was cursing Deng kun in their hearts for being a scumbag!
He did not want the gentle and demure Zheng yuluo and wanted to be with the flirtatious Chen Yiran. He was really brainless.
Zheng yuluo had lost a lot of face after such a thing happened. Deng kun was helping Chen yizhao to p Zheng yuluo in the face!
I didnt misunderstand. Many of our colleagues were here today and they all heard what Chen Yiqian said. If this matter isnt cleared up, I wont be able to continue staying in thepany. Please exin it to everyone.
Zheng yuluos voice was still soft. She was not irritable, nor was she crying.
However, the more this was the case, the more uncertain Deng kun was on the other end of the phone.
He had never thought that his impulsiveness would cause such a disaster!
He initially thought that Chen Yiqian would be too embarrassed to reveal their rtionship to the public for the sake of her own reputation. Who knew that this womans skin was so thick that it had far exceeded his expectations?
The marriage had just been decidedst night, and he had not married Zheng yuluo yet. He could not afford to make any mistakes at the moment!
Luoluo, I cant exin it clearly over the phone. Ill go to yourpany to find you in the afternoon. Ill exin it to you face to face!
Ill also exin everything to your colleagues. Theres no one else in my heart other than you! My feelings for you, everyone can see it!
Deng kun lowered his posture and kept coaxing Zheng yuluo.
From the beginning to the end, he did not say a word to Chen Yiqian. It was as if he did not know her at all.
Finally, Chen Yiqian could no longer keep a straight face. She turned around and left in a sorry state. However, no one pitied her. The women were calling her a Vixen. Two male colleagues who used to like her immediately disliked her.
Who would dare to want such a woman?
He would be cuckolded if he asked for it!
At noon, Deng kun came as expected. He generously treated everyone in thepany to a meal and affectionately told them about his love for Zheng yuluo. He also said that he was not familiar with Chen Yixuan and that the two of them could not even be considered friends. She was deliberately destroying his rtionship with Zheng yuluo.
Deng kun was the best at putting on a show of being a good man.
This kind of talent was almost unparalleled.
Otherwise, Zheng Jing and the others would not have thought that Zheng yuluo was the most suitable person to marry him.
After lunch, many peoples impression of Deng kun changed again.
They all felt that it was not Deng kuns problem. It was Chen Yiqian who was too shameless and it was her own wishful thinking.
Perhaps those photos were also photoshopped.
Chen Yiyi was a designer herself. She was very good at small things like image processing.
Naturally, Deng kun did not invite Chen Yiqian to dinner. This was undoubtedly a big p to her face.
As a result, when she went to work in the afternoon, she directly imed that she was sick and took leave.
The people in thepany were more gossipy, so they naturally discussed it.
Only Zheng yuluo was silent, as if what her colleagues were discussing had nothing to do with her. She was as calm as an emotionless robot.
In fact, Zheng yuluo felt that the daytime was a little difficult to endure.
She desperately hoped that the sky would turn dark so that she could go to the bar.
Even if she couldnt see him at the bar, she would still feel happy sitting in his bar.
After Zheng yuluo and Liu Xiaoying had their dinner, they went to the bar excitedly, only to see a closed notice posted at the door of the bar.
The bar would be under renovation for the next two days and would not be open for business.
Liu Xiaoying went to another bar and continued to hang out with her friends, but Zheng yuluo refused to leave.
She sat alone at the entrance of the bar, feeling lost and upset.
The night was getting darker, and the pedestrians on the road were getting fewer and fewer, but Zheng yuluo was reluctant to leave.
She didnt want to go home. If she did, she would be urged to get married. Deng kun might even be waiting for her at her house. He must have coaxed her parents to be happy.
In front of his parents, he was the most outstanding son-inw.
Zheng yuluo suddenly stood up and tried to open the bar window.
She had never been good at picking locks and windows, but she was very lucky. The bars Windows were easily opened by her.
She climbed up the window and jumped into the bar.
As it was her first time climbing a window, Zheng yuluo was extremely nervous. She had the panic of a guilty thief.
In the end, she identally sprained her ankle.
Hiss!
Zheng yuluo gasped in pain. If she had known that she would climb through someones window today, she would not have worn high heels.
Great, what if my foot is so swollen that I cant climb out?
She sat on the ground and turned on the shlight on her phone, wanting to look at her feet.
Suddenly, an indifferent voice came from above her head,Youre capable now, you even know how to pry open windows.
Zheng yuluo immediately raised her head in joy.
Jing Zhis appearance was so sudden that she was too happy to notice the small loophole in his words.
Zheng yuluo subconsciously pointed her shlight in the direction of the voice.Youve been inside all this time?
Perhaps it was because they were always in the dark, but Jing Zhi wasnt wearing his hat today.
The beam of light hit his body, revealing his entire face.
He didnt cover his face with his hands, but closed his eyes subconsciously because of the sudden light.
Only then did Zheng yuluo realize that the light from the shlight was too ring.
She immediately turned off the shlight and struggled to stand up from the ground.
But Jing Zhi took a step forward and picked her up from the ground.
Zheng yuluo cried out in surprise, but she did not struggle or resist.
She didnt know why, but she suddenly had a feeling that someone used to carry her like this in the past. She liked this kind of Princess carry.
Jing Zhi put Zheng yuluo on the sofa, turned around, and walked to the bar counter. He turned on the light of the bar, took some ice from the refrigerator, wrapped it in a clean towel, and then walked back to Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo had already forgotten the pain and was just staring at Jing Zhi in a daze.
Why was it that whenever she saw him, she always had the desire to jump into his arms?
He was indeed very handsome, but that didnt seem to be enough to make her so impulsive, right?
The strangest thing was that his every move always revealed his concern for her.
Was it because she looked like his first love?
Chapter 1325
Chapter 1325: Im not a good person
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo felt a little ufortable at the thought of this.
You didnt give me an exnation when you kissed mest time. Thats so irresponsible!
Zheng yuluo mumbled softly and said unhappily,Even if I look like your ex-girlfriend, you cant use me as a substitute. Thats too disrespectful!
Jing Zhi sat beside her with an ice cube in his hand. It took him a while to realize that Zheng yuluo was jealous of herself.
Wasnt she his ex-girlfriend?
Jing Zhi found it a little funny. Zheng yuluos habit of being jealous had not changed. She was jealous of all kinds of things. This was the first time he felt that Zheng yuluos amnesia was quite interesting.
He deliberately misled Zheng yuluo and said indifferently,You dont really look like her. My ex-girlfriend is prettier than you, but your brains arent working well either.
If Zheng yuluo had not sprained her foot, she would have stomped her foot in anger!
Whose brain was not working well?
Who wasnt pretty?
She was clearly beautiful and smart!
Your words are really unpleasant. No wonder your ex-girlfriend doesnt want you anymore! If you keep belittling others like this, you wont be able to find a girlfriend in your lifetime!
She looked especially cute when she was scolding him angrily. Jing Zhis heart softened and his voice became gentler.
Yes, youre right. If she doesnt want me anymore, I wont have a girlfriend in the future.
There was a faint sadness in his voice, which made ones heart ache.
Zheng yuluo regretted what she had just said.
He was so handsome, so it was normal for him to have an ex-girlfriend.
Didnt she also have an ex-boyfriend? Moreover, he was the ex-boyfriend that they had just broken up with today.
Theres no need to not find a girlfriend. You still have a long life ahead of you. You can try dating other girls, as long as you dont always have such a sharp tongue.
Almost everyone in the bar knew that Jing Zhi had rejected women. Many people suspected that he liked men, so many gay men tried to test him.
Unfortunately, regardless of whether they were men or women, he ignored them.
Zheng yuluo still felt that men should not be too closed off, nor should they always be immersed in the pain of the past. They should look forward.
Jing Zhi didnt seem to listen to her. He said calmly,If she finds out that Im in a rtionship with someone else, shell be angry. So, Ill be fine by myself.
Zheng yuluo suddenly fell silent.
She did not expect him to love his ex-girlfriend so deeply.
This made Zheng yuluo, who had deliberately approached him, feel guilty.
It was as if she had destroyed their rtionship.
Jing Zhi lifted Zheng yuluos sprained foot and ced it on his thigh. Then, he carefully took off her high heels.
He did a quick check, and after confirming that Zheng yuluo had only sprained her ankle, he took the ice and began to apply a coldpress on her.
Zheng yuluo wanted to pull her foot back, but Jing Zhi held her slender calf and said,Dont move. Apply a coldpress, or itll swell.
In Zheng yuluos current memory, no man had ever been so intimate with her. No one had touched her feet or touched her calves.
She felt a little awkward and blushed. She felt that this was something that only couples should do.
No, she had never done such a thing with Deng kun.
Let go, Ill do it myself.
Jing Zhi looked at her, but he didnt let go. Instead, he started to caress her calf even more.
Hey, hey, hey, whats wrong with you! Dont touch me, youre a hooligan! Just now, you were so deeply in love with your ex-girlfriend, why are you getting all touchy with another woman in the blink of an eye?
Jing Zhi suddenlyughed. He said in his heart,youre not another woman. Youre mine.
Zheng yuluos legs were very beautiful. Her skin was fair and smooth, and Jing Zhis hand uncontrobly moved up her calf.
Zheng yuluo was still immersed in Jing Zhis smile. She thought he was so handsome that even God would be angry at him. Just looking at his smile was enough to make her lose her mind.
She was startled when she realized that Jing Zhis hand was touching her thigh.
She grabbed Jing Zhis hand in a panic and stuttered,Y-y-you Are you really a hooligan?!
Zheng yuluos face was as red as an Apple. Fortunately, the lights in the bar were dim, or she would be too embarrassed to even raise her head.
She didnt know that for Jing Zhi, this dim light was no different from daytime.
Jing Zhi saw her blush and her shyness clearly.
Jing Zhi raised his eyebrows at her.Im not a good person. Didnt you climb into my bar to throw yourself into my arms?
No, no, no! Absolutely not, dont misunderstand, I just want to drink some wine! Let me go, Ill leave immediately!
You want to leave now? Its toote!
Jing Zhi found the flustered Zheng yuluo particrly lively and interesting. She treated him as a stranger and a bad guy, but she still couldnt helping to him. It was a little silly, but it was a little tempting.
He touched her thigh on purpose to scare her.
Zheng yuluo was really panicking. She raised her other foot and kicked Jing Zhi without hesitation.
She was wearing a pair of pointed high heels. If Jing Zhi hadnt dodged in time, he would have been poked through by her.
Jing Zhi let go of her, and Zheng yuluo stood up immediately. She clenched her teeth and limped out.
Unfortunately, she was wearing a high heel on one foot and had sprained the other foot. It was extremely difficult for her to walk. She had only taken a few steps when Jing Zhi caught up with her.
Ill send you out. Dont go out alone at night in the future. Men are dangerous. You have to remember this!
As he spoke, he picked up Zheng yuluo and strode to the door.
Zheng yuluo struggled in his arms, but she couldnt escape.
I thought you were a good person, but you were just pretending! Men are all bad. They say that theyre deeply in love with a woman, but in fact, they can fool around with other women. They have no sense of responsibility at all!
Jing Zhi walked to the door and put Zheng yuluo down. He opened the door and said,Did your boyfriend mess around with another woman?
Zheng yuluo was stunned and immediately denied it,no! Hes especially good to me, unlike you, who likes to touch me!
Although he knew that Zheng yuluo had said it out of anger, and that Deng kun was not a good person, Jing Zhi was still very jealous.
The pain and bitterness in his eyes disappeared in a sh. Then, he picked up Zheng yuluo as if nothing had happened, walked out of the bar, and put her in her own Coro.
Go home and live your life. Donte here again. Bars dont suit you.
Jing Zhi took a deep look at Zheng yuluos soft and beautiful face, turned back to the bar, and closed the door, leaving Zheng yuluo alone outside.

Zheng yuluo looked at his disappearing figure. For some reason, her anger from before suddenly disappeared, leaving only disappointment and uneasiness.
Did I say something wrong?
Why did she feel that he was suddenly unhappy after she said thosest few words?
Zheng yuluo sat in the car in a daze and didnt leave for a long time.
She knew that she didnt mind Jing Zhis touch.
If someone else had touched her leg like that, she might have vomited out of disgust. Previously, she had felt ufortable even when Deng kun had carried her.
She didnt know what was wrong with her. She could ept girls hugging her intimately, hugging her arms, and pinching her face, but she couldnt ept it when it was the opposite sex.
She remembered that she wasnt like this in the past. It seemed that she had been like this since she woke up from thea.
Zheng yuluos heart was filled with warmth when she recalled how Jing Zhi had taken off her shoes and applied a coldpress on her.
His movements were very natural, as if he had known her for * long time * and if she thought about it carefully, there had never been any lust in his eyes from the beginning.
When Zheng yuluo thought of this, she could not help but be stunned. There was no ***?
Was he just teasing her?
Was he deliberately trying to make her leave?
Zheng yuluos mind was in a mess. She felt helpless about her previous fuss, but she couldnt calm down even if she wanted to when a man whose name she didnt even know touched her thigh!
Her ankle still hurt, but Zheng yuluo gritted her teeth and walked out of the car barefooted.
The window that she had pried open earlier was not closed. She lifted her skirt and climbed into the bar a second time.
Hello, are you there?
The lights in the bar had been turned off at some point. It was dark, and Zheng yuluo was a little scared.
Her voice reverberated in the empty bar as if she was the only one around.
Zheng yuluo was a little scared. The person had clearly walked into the bar just now, and she had not spoken softly. It was impossible that she had not heard it!
With trembling fingers, she turned on the shlight on her phone and dragged her injured foot inside slowly.
She had searched the entire bar, even under the sofa, but there was no one!
It was like seeing a ghost!
She had been to this bar many times, and there was only one exit!
Zheng yuluos hair stood on end, and she felt that the bar was gloomy.
Hey, where are you?
Come out, dont scare me, Im so scared!
Boss, my Savior, I know youre inside. Stop hiding, I can see you.
Zheng yuluo muttered to herself for a long time. There was nothing around her except for the cold wind.
Fear could umte, and the more afraid you were, the more you would feel that there were all kinds of terrifying monsters around you.
Zheng yuluo wanted to go to the bar counter and turn on the light, but her arm identally touched a ss on the bar counter. The ss fell to the ground with a loud bang, making a shrill sound. Zheng yuluos fear umted to the extreme, and she was so scared that she broke down.
She didnt realize that she was the one who had knocked the cup off. She thought that the cup had fallen on its own.
She was so scared that she sat on the ground and cried, her voice trembling as she shouted,Theres a ghost! Is there anyone there? Quicklye and save me!
In the dark, someone hugged her from the front and gently patted her back.Yu Luo, dont be afraid. Im here. Theres no ghost.
The thick smell of tobo wrapped around Zheng yuluo. It used to be a smell that she especially hated, but now, she felt that this smell was the most reassuring smell in the world.
She snuggled into Jing Zhis arms and hugged his waist tightly. She cried, Youre so annoying! Youre trying to scare me! Dont you know that Im very timid? Dont you know that Im afraid of ghosts?
Jing Zhis heart was broken when he saw Zheng yuluo cry so sadly.
He picked up Zheng yuluo and sat on the sofa, letting her sit on hisp. He kissed her smooth forehead and coaxed her gently,I know, I know. I didnt want to scare you. I thought that you would leave soon after you couldnt find me. Who knew that you would be so stupid to look for me again and again?
As usual, Jing Zhi carefully wiped Zheng yuluos tears and even apologized to her in a humble tone, Im sorry. Dont cry, dont cry. Its my fault. Just scold me. I wont scare you again in the future, okay?
Zheng yuluo didnt know why, but she felt so wronged in Jing Zhis arms. She cried and scolded him,Youre not a good person, youre a hooligan, youre a bad guy, youre especially annoying! Do you really think that Ill listen to you and leave just because youve chased me away?
Okay, okay, okay. I hate it. Im not a good person. I wont chase you away. If you like this ce, you cane here every day. You can also stay here
Jing Zhi couldnt help but kiss Zheng yuluos tears. It was not easy for him to hold her, and he had to suppress his desire for her in his heart. He had to control himself not to press Zheng yuluo on the sofa and have her.
His indulgence and pampering toward Zheng yuluo was unparalleled.
Yuluo, dont cry. I dont like to see you cry. If youre sad, just hit me. Dont torture yourself.
These words seemed familiar. Zheng yuluo felt that she must have heard them before, but she couldnt remember who had said it, nor where she had heard it.
I knew you before, didnt I? she cried even harder. Ive forgotten a lot of things, but I keep feeling that youre very familiar! Tell me, why are you so good to me? I dont believe that its because I look like your ex-girlfriend! Other than my sister, I dont look like anyone else!
Jing Zhis heart was bleeding. It turned out that Zheng yuluo knew that he had lost his memory. It turned out that even though she had forgotten him, she still felt that he was familiar when she saw him again.
She didnt even believe the story about his ex-girlfriend that he made up.
He pressed Zheng yuluo into his arms and held her tightly, his eyes full of tears.
Yes, youre different from the others. Youre just you. How am I good to you? silly, Ive already said that Im not a good person. Dont be fooled again.
Zheng yuluo raised her head from his arms and looked at Jing Zhi with tears in her eyes.
He refused to admit that they used to know each other!
Could it be that her senses were wrong?
Tears fell from Zheng yuluos eyes. She ordered Jing Zhi while sobbing,Give me a kiss!
Jing Zhi kissed her on the forehead.
Im not kissing here! I asked you to kiss me!
Jing Zhi hugged Zheng yuluos soft body and coaxed her gently,Dont mess around. Youll regret it tomorrow if I kiss you today.
I dont regret it! Youve already kissed me oncest time, and Ive already given you my first kiss. Why would I care about a second time?

Chapter 1327: I love you with tears
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluos words made Jing Zhis heart tremble slightly.
Yes, she was right. She had indeed given him her first kiss.
However, it was not the first time that Zheng yuluo had thought it was. He had kissed her when she was 16.
Jing Zhi caressed Zheng yuluos back gently as if he was taking care of a treasure.
He pressed his forehead against Zheng yuluos and asked in a low voice,Youve been in a rtionship for more than a year, and you still have your first kiss?
Zheng yuluo suddenly understood what Jing Zhi was concerned about.
He was actually bothered by Deng kun!
She bit Jing Zhis chin in anger and only released her grip when she heard him cry out in pain. Its gone, given to a dog! A dog forced a kiss on me one night, and hes still pretending to be a good person!
Zheng yuluo had never kissed Deng kun before, so Jing Zhi suddenly felt very happy.
In fact, even if Zheng yuluo had kissed someone else, Jing Zhi would be extremely jealous, but his love for Zheng yuluo would not be any less.
He could strictly forbid himself from touching other women, but Zheng yuluo had lost her memory. She had forgotten the past. Even if she fell in love with someone else, he would not me her.
The only thing he could do was to protect her for the rest of her life until he no longer had the strength to protect her. Only then would he leave.
Jing Zhi touched his chin that had been bitten by Zheng yuluo and smiled with tears in his eyes.
She used to like to bite him, but he would always stop her in advance to prevent her from biting his skin anding into contact with his blood to get infected with the virus.
Many of her habits had not changed.
Even her habit of loving him was still the same.
Jing Zhi used to hate Zheng yuluo for forgetting about him. He hated her for forgetting all the feelings and grudges between them.
But at this moment, all his hatred dissipated.
He loved Zheng yuluo. Even if she did not remember anything, even if she had forgotten how many things she had done to hurt him, even if she had forgotten everything he had done for her, it did not matter.
Even if she had lost her memory, she was still her. He still couldnt help but love her and want to have her.
Perhaps, she would never know what he had suffered through these hundreds of **** nights.
Perhaps, she would never know that this bar was actually opened for her alone. The reason why the bar closed tonight was not because of the renovation, but because he closed it for her.
Time had made Zheng yuluo mature a lot. She was like an attractive peach, exuding a unique fragrance, waiting for someone to pick her.
Jing Zhi pressed Zheng yuluo down on the sofa and lowered his head to suck on her lips. He bit and sucked on her lips as if he wanted to eat her up.
At first, he was afraid of hurting Zheng yuluo, so he kissed her gently. However, as he kissed her, he could not control himself.
Zheng yuluo only felt that his kiss was like a storm. He kissed her very hard, like a hungry person who had suddenly encountered a delicious meal and was eating with all her heart.
Zheng yuluo hugged Jing Zhis head helplessly and responded to him with a choppy voice.
She had asked Jing Zhi to kiss her because she wanted to experience the feeling of kissing again. She hadnt kissed him before, but after the first time she had kissed Jing Zhi, she kept having blurry images of them kissing appear in her mind.
She wanted to know if she had kissed Jing Zhi before.
But now, her mind was nk and her body was stiff. She had long forgotten her original purpose.
A warm current spread from the bottom of Zheng yuluos heart to her limbs, making her want to get closer to Jing Zhi.
But in reality, they were already stuck closely together!
Zheng yuluo had forgotten about Jing Zhi, but she hadnt forgotten themon sense between men and women. Her hand slowly slid into Jing Zhis clothes and touched his bare back.
Jing Zhis kiss suddenly stopped. He said in a hoarse voice, Dont move!
Zheng yuluo also realized what she was doing. She blushed and quickly took her hand out of Jing Zhis clothes. She said in a low voice,I I didnt move around
Yes, good.
Jing Zhi pecked Zheng yuluos bright red lips as a reward and coaxed her as if he were coaxing a child.
In his eyes, Zheng yuluo seemed to always be a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, who was pressed on the bed by him and crying softly, delicate and soft.
However, Zheng yuluo was already 22 years old now. She was being coaxed by Jing Zhi like a child. She felt a little embarrassed, but she also felt very happy.
No one had coaxed her like he did, as if he wanted to hold her in his hands, protect and love her, and not let her suffer a single grievance.
Zheng yuluo snuggled in Jing Zhis arms, feeling his body temperature and heartbeat. The feeling of love quickly surrounded her, making her heart beat fast and her breathing a little rushed.
Jing Zhi was afraid of crushing Zheng yuluo, so he used his arms to support his body.
He nced at the clock hanging on the wall of the bar and said in a low voice,Its 11:30. You should go home.
Zheng yuluo pouted and subconsciously said,Im not going back!
She didnt realize why Jing Zhi knew the exact time until she finished.
The lights were off in the bar, and only the moonlight shone in through the window, giving off a faint light.
Zheng yuluo knew the clock in the bar. She turned her head to look in the direction of the clock, but she could only barely see the rough outline of the circr clock. She could not see the time at all!
Zheng yuluo looked at Jing Zhi and asked in surprise,How did you know what time it is? Do you have such good eyesight?
Jing Zhi smiled helplessly. He had identally exposed his abnormality. He should have worn a watch to cover it up.
Yes, my eyesight is better than others since birth. I can see far, no matter how far away or how dark it is. Are you afraid?
He sounded like he was joking, but Zheng yuluo did not think it was a joke at all.
She wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis neck in admiration and asked,So, youre from the stars?
Zheng yuluo did not think that there was anything to be afraid of. She did not even have such an ability!
Jing Zhi smiled. He sat up with Zheng yuluo in his arms and said gently,Dont watch those TV dramas. If you have time, read more books and learn self-defense. Lets go, Ill take you home.
Zheng yuluo leaned into Jing Zhis arms, her heart racing. She said sweetly and coquettishly,I just like to watch TV shows. I dont like to read or learn self-defense. Cant you protect me?
Jing Zhi hugged Zheng yuluos soft body and smelled the faint fragrance on her body. He was a little reluctant to let her go.
Alright, he said firmly,if you dont like it, then dont learn. Ill protect you.

Chapter 1328: The cruel reality
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo smiled with satisfaction. She lifted her head from Jing Zhis arms and kissed Jing Zhi on the lips shyly. She said in a low voice,Then are you still chasing me away?
Jing Zhi was overwhelmed by her kiss. He buried his head in Zheng yuluos hair and held her tightly. He didnt say anything for a long time.
Did she really think that he wanted her to leave?
After she left, his heart would be empty again.
If she left, his pain would increase dramatically, and he would not be able to suppress his longing.
Jing Zhi suddenly lifted Zheng yuluos chin, put his lips on hers, and kissed her deeply.
After a long time, he let go of Zheng yuluo and panted heavily.
Zheng yuluos breathing was also rapid. She sat on Jing Zhis body and pressed tightly against him. She had already noticed the change in a certain part of his body.
She was so embarrassed that her face turned red.
She had already forgotten that she had done everything with Jing Zhi. As far as she knew, she had never been intimate with any man.
She hadpletely forgotten her past experience. The current Zheng yuluo was a nk sheet of paper when it came to matters between men and women.
You just promised me that you could stay here if you wanted to. Are you lying to me? Im not going home. Im staying here with you!
Zheng yuluo pouted and looked at Jing Zhi with her bright eyes, hoping that he would agree to let her stay.
Jing Zhis heart softened.
She was his woman, from the beginning to the end!
He really wanted to satisfy all her requests. Even if she wanted the moon or stars, he would go and pick them for her.
However, if she were to sleep in the bar for a night, she would have to endure the interrogation and anger of her family when she returned home the next day. She might not even be allowed to leave the house as she pleased in the future.
Jing Zhi kissed her forehead and said softly,You cant sleep here. You have to go home and sleep. Otherwise, your family will be worried about you.
Zheng yuluo was unhappy,why should I go home? Ill be forced to marry Deng kun if I go home. Are you willing to let me marry him?
Of course not!
Jing Zhi was thest person in the world who wanted to see Zheng yuluo marry Deng kun.
However, reality was a hundred times crueler than dreams.
His body would forever be an insurmountable obstacle.
All of Zheng Jings worries were reasonable. Before the virus in his body was cured by the medicalmunity, Zheng yuluo would be in danger of dying if she stayed with him.
In the future, they would not be able to have children. Zheng yuluo would probably never be able to fulfill her wish of bing a mother in this life.
If you dont like Deng kun, you can always find someone else who will treat you well. You have to listen to your parents and not be willful, Jing Zhi said in a low and painful voice.
Jing Zhi felt like he was stabbing a knife into his heart when he said that.
Zheng yuluo was just acting coquettishly, but when she heard Jing Zhi ask her to find someone else, her tears fell uncontrobly.
She pushed Jing Zhi away with all her might, got off him, and pped him across the face.
Youre shameless! Youre not human! Were already in this state, and you can still say such things. Ive misjudged you! Im leaving, I wonte to find you again!
Zheng yuluo walked out crying. Jing Zhi stood up subconsciously, trying to stop her.
However, he only took one step forward and did not take another step.
He looked at Zheng yuluos disappearing back and touched his face where she had pped him. The bitterness in his heart was overwhelming.
Was he right or wrong?
Regardless of whether he was right or wrong, Jing Zhi regretted it the moment he forced Zheng yuluo away.
What if Zheng yuluo really married Deng kun in a fit of anger?
His words were nice and he seemed to be very magnanimous, but in reality, he was a selfish and very possessive person. He would be very angry if anyone touched his woman, let alone marry her.
He stood up and chased after her.
It didnt matter if Zheng yuluo had forgotten about him. Didnt she fall in love with him again?
However, when Jing Zhi left the bar, Zheng yuluo had already driven away.
He went back to the bar to get his car keys. He drove his new, unremarkable Buick to the Zheng family.
When he arrived, Zheng yuluo was not the only one in front of the Zheng familys Vi. Her parents, her sister, and Deng kun were also there.
A group of people surrounded Zheng yuluo, a little ming her foring home toote.
However, Deng kun had been protecting her and exining to her.
In this way, Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun felt that Deng kun was a nice person.
If it were another man, how could he indulge his girlfriend to y outside until sote? Deng kun waited for Zheng yuluo at the Zheng family for the whole night without a word ofint.
Everyone, including Zheng Yuwei, felt that although Deng kun was a bit of a yboy, he was very good at taking care of Zheng yuluo.
The family was happy and harmonious. It was obvious that they had been familiar with each other for a long time.
Jing Zhis eyes hurt at the sight. He didnt even dare to drive too close to them, in case the Zheng family found out and said something nasty to him.
He did not want to be trampled on in front of Zheng yuluo, nor did he want to embarrass Zheng yuluo, and he did not want to bepared to the good-for-nothing Deng kun.
They were too far away and Jing Zhi couldnt hear what they were talking about. He could only hear Zheng Jings heartyughter from time to time.
He saw Zheng Jing patting Deng kuns shoulder with satisfaction, as if he had already regarded Deng kun as a family.
Jing Zhi sneered in his heart. If Zheng Jing knew what kind of person Deng kun was, he would not be able tough anymore.
Jing zhinzhi tolerated Deng kun being by Zheng yuluos side all this time because Deng kun was not a good person, but he liked to pretend to be a good person.
At the very least, Deng kun would not easily go against Zheng yuluos wishes and touch her. He would not force her, and he could take care of her very thoughtfully and meticulously, not letting her suffer.
The Deng familys financial situation was slightly worse than the Zheng family s, so the Deng family would tter Zheng yuluo and not dare to make her suffer.
Jing Zhi fell into dejection and pain at the thought of this.
It seemed that Deng kun was more suitable to be a husband than him. Even his parents were very qualified inws.
Zheng yuluo didnt know about Jing Zhis pain, nor did she know that Jing Zhi was watching this scene from not far away. Her heart was cold, and she felt like she had been abandoned by the whole world.
She knew very well that she didnt like Deng kun. Before she met Jing Zhi, she could have married Deng kun and spent the rest of her life with him in confusion.
Anyway, Deng kun nevercked women. He was a yboy outside. As long as he did not touch her, he was fine with anything.
She had never felt guilty towards Deng kun.
But now, she could not marry Deng kun.
She had fallen in love with someone else.
Chapter 1329
Chapter 1329: A terrifying man
Trantor: 549690339
When Zheng yuluo said break up with Deng kun on the phone today, it was not just a casual remark.
She listened to Deng kuns conversation with her parents with a nk expression. Deng kun would tease his sister Zheng Yuwei from time to time, saying that she should also consider her marriage and find a boyfriend.
She felt that everything in front of her was like an illusion.
Why did she feel that her family was closer to Deng kun than to her?
After a long time, she said,Deng kun, I think Ive made it clear. Weve broken up. We even had a farewell lunch at noon. Did you lose your memory?
Zheng yuluos voice was gentle, but her tone was inexplicably sharp and aggressive, which stunned everyone.
Break up?
Zheng Jing was the first to react. He said in surprise,I just told you this morning that youre getting engaged at the end of the month. Why are you breaking up again? Luoluo, youre not allowed to cause trouble!
Sister, is there a misunderstanding between you and brother-inw? Zheng Yuwei asked hesitantly. Did you two Fight?
Zheng Lun was the only one who didnt say anything. Her face was full of worry and the smile on her face had disappeared.
She was a soft-hearted woman and had never suffered much in her life. She had a smooth life, so she didnt want her daughter to suffer.
She knew that Zheng yuluo had a lot of opinions about the engagement.
Now that Zheng yuluo had proposed to break up, she had actually expected it.
However, Deng kun acted as if nothing had happened. He still smiled gently and said with a graceful demeanor, Its fine, its fine. Its all my fault. Luoluo didnt cause trouble. Uncle, dont me her. I definitely wont make her angry again in the future. I definitely cant break up with her. It wasnt easy for me to find such a good wife, how can I bear to let her go!
It would have been fine if he did not exin, but with this exnation, it seemed like Zheng yuluo was really being unreasonable.
He was the one who would tolerate and pamper Zheng yuluo no matter how much trouble she caused.
Zheng yuluo was speechless. She stared at Deng kun for a while and said lightly,If you take the initiative to break up with me, I wont tell you about those things. Were acquaintances, so I have to leave you some face.
Luoluo, you really cant me me for what happened today, Deng kun said earnestly.Im not familiar with your colleagues. If she wants to nder me, I cant avoid it. Do you still not understand my feelings for you? Be good, well live a good life in the future. Ill take care of all the housework, and well buy whatever you want. Ill definitely make you happy.
Zheng yuluo had seen Deng kuns gentleness and better words than now, but she did not have the slightest change in his words.
He refused to break up. Zheng yuluo took out her mobile phone and showed her parents a bed photo of Deng kun and Chen Yixi.
The engagement is over. Dont mention it again. I wont marry someone whos getting engaged at the end of the month and is still fooling around with another woman at the beginning of the month.
Zheng Jing and the rest looked at Deng kun in shock.
Facing the gazes of Zheng Jing and the other two, Deng kun was very calm.
He smiled bitterly and said,to be honest with you, uncle and Auntie, the girl in the photo does like me. She wanted to treat me to a meal a few times, but I rejected her every time. Theres nothing between her and me. These photos are all photoshopped, otherwise, they wouldnt be so blurry.
The photos were indeed blurry because Chen Yixuan had secretly taken them behind Deng kuns back.
And because they were almost naked, many key parts of their bodies were pixted, which made them look even more like they were photoshopped.
Therefore, Deng kun did not feel guilty at all when he said these words.
He was certain that no one would be able to tell if the photos were real or fake just from a few screenshots.
Zheng yuluo, youre still too inexperienced!
This girl is luoluos colleague, so I cant be too hard on her. I dont want her to make things difficult for luoluo at work. Ive actually already rejected her, but she still texted me every day. I was afraid that luoluo would overthink this, so I didnt dare to tell her, and in the end, it was a misunderstanding.
Deng kuns words were sincere and sincere, which made Zheng Jing and the rest feel the same.
Only Zheng yuluo looked at Deng kun in shock.
She had never known that Deng kun was so good at lying through his teeth!
This was simply distorting the truth!
If he were to go into acting, he would be letting down the film industry if he didnt get an Oscar!
Deng kun, why dont you admit what youve done? Its fine if youre always in a rtionship with other women, but now you wont even let go of the girls in mypany and embarrass me in front of the wholepany. How can you have the cheek to say that its a mistake?
Zheng yuluo had not realized that Deng kun was so scheming before. She just thought that he was a little fickle, but she did not think that he was bad.
But now, she suddenly realized that Deng kuns character was a bit scary!
It turned out that he had already thought of an excuse, which was why he dared toe to her house so calmly.
Had he nned everything out?
Did he think that she would marry him just because he had predicted it?
Luoluo, dont be angry. You can hit me or scold me, but dont break up with me. I really want to spend the rest of my life with you. You didnt let me touch you in the past, so Ive always respected you. But you cant break up with me just because weve never been close.
Deng kun looked at Zheng yuluo with a gentle gaze, and his tone was pleading. At this moment, anyone would feel that he was particrly pitiful, and Zheng yuluo was just making a scene.
Uncle, aunty, please help me to persuade her. Dont make her angry. Im going to marry her next month, so I wont give up on luoluo no matter what. Shes a good girl, and I cherish her very much!
Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Zheng Jing patted Deng kuns shoulder with a smile.Alright, its gettingte. You should go home and rest! Luoluo has us here. Shes just being a little naughty for a while and has been spoiled by your Auntie and me. When her anger subsides tomorrow, everything will be fine!
Deng kun kept thanking Zheng Jing and looked at Zheng yuluo worriedly before driving away.
Zheng Jings face turned cold as soon as Deng kun left.Come in, yuluo. Tell me clearly what you mean by breaking up!
He would only call her yuluo when he was angry. Usually, he would call her luoluo.
Zheng yuluo was no longer in the mood to care about how she should address him. She slowly entered the house and saw her parents and sister sitting on the sofa, but she did not sit down.
She had sprained her foot, but she would rather be in pain than sit down. She stood barefoot in the middle of the living room and said calmly,Dad, mom, Ive decided to break up with Deng kun. Were not suitable for each other. Lets cancel our engagement!
Chapter 1330
Chapter 1330: Family members lies
Trantor: 549690339
No one in the family noticed that Zheng yuluos foot was injured. They didnt even notice that she hade home barefooted. At this moment, all their attention was on her breakup with Deng kun.
Hearing that Zheng yuluo was going to cancel the engagement, Zheng Jing smacked the tea table in anger. The tea set and ss cups on the table were all knocked.
I dont agree! Youve been in a rtionship with Deng kun for so long, whats inappropriate about it now? Is it a childs y to propose marriage? You must marry Deng kun. He is the most suitable person for you and he loves you the most!
Zheng yuluos eyes were cold. She looked at her father and said word by word,I wont marry you!
You have to marry me even if you dont want to!
Zheng Jing felt that he had spoiled his daughter too much. She would definitely suffer in the future because of her capricious character.
Only Deng kun could always tolerate her and not care about her temper. Even if she did not allow him to touch her, Deng kun would go along with her, not touch her, and protect her.
If it was any other man, how could he stand this!
Weve already discussed the marriage with the Deng family yesterday. We cant go back on our word for no reason. Deng kun didnt treat you badly, and the Deng family also treats you like their own daughter. Youre not allowed to be willful!
Youre the ones who agreed to the marriage. I never said that I wanted to marry Deng kun. I didnt participate in the marriage from the beginning to the end.
Zheng yuluo did not intend to fall out with her family. She knew that her parents and sister loved her very much, and no other emotion could rece family love at any time.
She wanted to tell her father about Deng kun when she got home, but she did not expect that Deng kun would mess up the matter.
No matter what she said now, Zheng Jing would think that she was running away and that she was being willful, not that there was something wrong with Deng kun.
However, for Zheng yuluo, whether there was a problem with Deng kun or not, her choice was the same.
Even if Deng kun had not slept with Chen Yixuan, she would not have married Deng kun. However, she was more determined to not marry him now.
Dad, Ill never be happy marrying Deng kun. Do you want me to marry him too? I just graduated from college and am only 22 years old. I am still very young. Why should I get married so early and have children? Why are you in such a hurry for me to get married?
Zheng Jing and the other two couldnt tell them the reason why they were so anxious to let Zheng yuluo get married.
They didnt even want to mention Jing Zhis name, let alone tell Zheng yuluo that she had once been so deeply in love with a man that she didnt even care about her own life.
There was dead silence in the living room. After a while, Zheng Jing said, Were asking you to get married for your own good. Your mother, your sister, and I care about you. The earlier you get married, the earlier you settle down, thats the mostplete life.
This reason couldnt convince Zheng yuluo at all. She pointed at Zheng Yuwei and asked with extreme sadness in her heart,Then why didnt my sister get married earlier? She was only born a few minutester than me. Why can she pursue the life she wants? Why do I have to follow the path you have arranged?
At home, Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei were two extremes.
No matter where Zheng yuluo went or what she did, she had to report to her family. Her school and major were chosen ording to her familys will.
During the school period, he had to listen to his familys arrangements for his sses, and he had to report to his family in detail about his ssmates and friends.
Zheng Jing had also selected Deng kun for Zheng yuluo to date after several rounds of selection by his family.
After graduation, Zheng yuluos job had been arranged by Zheng Jing.
Was this love?
No!
This wasn t!
This was control!
She was a puppet living in the hands of her family, and she could only move whichever leg she was told to!
On the other hand, no matter what Zheng Yuwei did, no one would care about her, and no one would tell her what to do. What she got was always support and tolerance.
She had chosen her own school and major, so she had the absolute freedom to love. She could go out to y and make a lot of friends, but she didnt need to go home to report.
Zheng yuluo was clearly the most obedient one, so why was she still under strict control?
What happened before I lost my memory? Youre so nervous about me dating and getting married because youre afraid that Ill remember that person and that Ill marry him, right?
The three people sitting in the living room were stunned by Zheng yuluos words.
Did she remember?
Zheng Yuweis voice trembled slightly,Sister, you You Are you not going to marry Deng kun because of him? she asked.
Upon hearing Zheng Yuweis words, Zheng yuluos tears fell immediately!
As expected!
As expected, she had forgotten an especially important person in her life!
As expected, they had been hiding it from her!
She had a lover!
Zheng yuluo only felt that the pain in her sprained foot was increasing rapidly. It spread from the sole of her foot to the rest of her body in an instant!
She clutched her chest and fell to the floor.
Why did you not tell me? Why did you lie to me? Cant You Remind Me of Something that Ive forgotten as my family? He left me more than 10 million diamonds! Ivepletely forgotten about him!
Seeing Zheng yuluo fall to the ground, Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun went up to help her, but she pushed them away.
Luoluo, get up first and sit on the sofa to talk. The floor is cold!
Zheng yuluo did not get up. Shey on the floor and cried her heart out, as if she was going to cry out all the tears she had shed over the past year.
Zheng Jing wanted to ask his daughter about the diamond worth more than ten million but he couldn t.
I forgot about him, but you want to marry me off to someone else! How could you be so cruel! What if I remember everything one day? wont I hate you? Do you think Ill ept my fate?
Zheng yuluo cried for a long time. She raised her head with tears on her face and said hoarsely,Now, please tell me, what is his name, where is he, is he alive, or Is he dead!
It turned out that she still hadnt remembered anything. Perhaps she was just testing him.
Zheng Yuwei, who had always been shrewd, fell for it.
Zheng Jing threw a reproachful look at his younger daughter. Zheng Yuwei knew that she had identally admitted to what they had been hiding. She threw an apologetic look at Zheng Jing and waved her hand, indicating that she would never do it again.
Luoluo, youre overthinking things.
Zheng Jing regained hisposure quickly and said in a low voice,You havent forgotten anyone. If you really have forgotten, it can only mean that you dont have a deep impression of him. They were just some unimportant people and things. What was in the past, it was all in the past. For now, you should live your life well and stop thinking about nonsense.

You still wont tell me, right?
The more he didnt say, the more it showed that the person was special and important. Otherwise, he wouldnt be so secretive.
Zheng yuluo suddenly got up from the floor, endured the pain from her ankle, and turned to walk out.
Luoluo, where are you going sote? Zheng Lun was anxious. Come back quickly!
Ill go find him!Zheng yuluo said without turning her head. I will definitely find him! Even if hes dead, Im going to find him!
Zheng Yuwei realized that something was wrong with Zheng yuluos foot. She quickly stepped forward to stop Zheng yuluo.Sister, is your leg injured? Dont move around, have a good rest first! Even if youre looking for someone, you dont need one more night!
Zheng yuluo looked at her twin sister with red eyes and asked in a very soft voice,Wei Wei, you also pushed me to the edge of the cliff. Arent you afraid that Ill hate you in the future?
Zheng yuluos appearance was so heartbreaking that Zheng Yuwei couldnt help but hug her and cry,Sister, even if you hate me, Ill still do it! I cant lose you! You dont know how terrible I felt thest time you were in the hospital, almost out of breath! I dont want to experience it again! I only want you to live!
The two girls were clearly twins, but at the age of 22, there was a big difference in their height and body shape.
Zheng Yuwei was three centimeters taller than her sister, Zheng yuluo. Years of physical training had made her body well-proportioned and strong. She was 1.66 meters tall and weighed more than 110 pounds.
Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, was 1.63 meters tall and only weighed 90 pounds.
Zheng Yuwei had been ying the role of an older sister for a long time.
Of course she knew that Deng kun wasnt suitable, but no matter how unsuitable he was, he was more suitable than Jing Zhi!
At the very least, her sister would not be in a life-and-death situation when she married into the Deng family.
Or perhaps, although Deng kun was a yboy, he would stop after he married his sister. His sister was so beautiful and gentle, would Deng kun still like someone else?
In such a short time, they had no better candidate than Deng kun!
Even Deng kun, who had been with Zheng yuluo for more than a year, still refused to get close to him. If it were someone else, it would be even more impossible.
Zheng yuluo stood there, letting her sister hug her.
She had forgotten what had happened in the past, but she knew that she had escaped death once.
When she first woke up, her memory was a little jumbled up, and it took a few days for her to recover.
In the year after she woke up, Zheng yuluo hadpromised with her family again and again. Why?
Because she loved her family, she had always believed that her family did not let her do this and that for her own good.
The person she trusted the most was undoubtedly her sister.
Her parents demanded her to fall in love and get married, but she had neverpared her sister to them before.
If she had not been so angry with Zheng Jing today, she would not have made theparison.
Wei Wei, dont make me hate you, okay? Let me choose my own life and not just let me live. Im alive, and Im living in your way. Youre all happy, but what about me?
Zheng Yuwei was stunned. She had never thought about this before. She thought that her sister was happy now!
Wasnt it?
She had not cried or felt sad for the past year!
Wasnt it good that she had smiled more and no more tears?
Sister, its best for our family to be together like this! I really want to see you get married and have a child. Then, your child will call me aunty and we can take the child out to y. If you really dont like Deng kun, lets discuss it with dad and mom and find a better one, okay?
Unless you tell me what Ive forgotten, Ill never get married!
Being stopped by Zheng Yuwei, Zheng yuluo knew that she could not go out tonight.
She turned around and limped upstairs. By then, Zheng Jing and the other two could tell that her foot was injured.
They took the first aid kit and wanted to check on her foot, but the door was locked from the inside by Zheng yuluo, and they could not get in at all.
Luoluo, open the door. Mom will go in and talk to you. What happened to your leg? Quickly let me see!
Luoluo, you can be angry, but you still need to treat your injuries as soon as possible. Dont be willful,e out quickly!
Zheng yuluo did not seem to notice the voice outside the door.
She took out her precious gray coat from the closet and draped it over herself. She reached into her pocket and held the diamond Box and cigarette box. She finally felt a little better.
She remembered how she had pped Jing Zhi when she left the bar. She felt terrible.
He had been hit by her, and he did not even resist at all.
When he had saved her from the bad guys, he had been agile and more than enough to subdue her.
However, he was pped in the face.
He shouldnt have been pped. He felt a little wronged.
Even her biological parents and sister felt that she should marry Deng kun. It was normal for an outsider like him not to want to marry her, right?
He was deeply in love with his first girlfriend and only loved her. He didnt want to marry any other woman. At least he had a conscience.
Zheng yuluos heart was filled with sorrow and confusion. She did not know how long she could fight against her family.
She ced a lot of importance on family ties. If her parents and sister kept frowning and worrying about her marriage, she might soonpromise because she felt bad for them.
She wrapped herself in her coat and fell asleep on the bed.
In the hazy dream, it seemed that someone kept calling her name. The voice was a little cold, with a domineering tone, and there was an unmistakable anger.
Zheng yuluo, wake up!
I told you to wake up, youre not allowed to die!
Whose voice was that?
Why did it feel so familiar?
Even in her dream, Zheng yuluo knew that she was dreaming again.
Recently, she had often heard this voice in her dreams, and it was always the same sentence.
But when she woke up, she would always forget what that voice was like.
She only remembered that the voice was very melodious and had a powerful magic that awakened her consciousness.
That person kept telling her to wake up, and Zheng yuluo would really wake up because of that. Then, because she was too attached to that voice, she fell into a deep sleep again. This repeated many times throughout the night until dawn.
Perhaps it was because she had dreamed too many timesst night, but she had a faint impression of the voice in her dreams.
Zheng yuluo sat up and tried to recall where she had heard such an overbearing and angry voice. She did not remember anyone talking to her like this!
However, she was sure that it was not just a dream.

Chapter 1332: In a hurry to marry off her daughter
Trantor: 549690339
As she was thinking, Zheng yuluo suddenly realized that the coat had been crumpled by her.
Aiya!
She quickly got up, kept her coat, and carefully smoothed out the wrinkles.
A small box rolled out of the coat, and the bright diamonds fell to the ground.
Zheng yuluo suddenly had a sh of light in her mind!
She knew!
That voice must be the voice of the diamonds owner!
He kept telling her to wake up and not let her die. This was what he said when she was in aa more than a year ago!
She had only found the box of diamonds after she had woken up.
Then he should be the owner of the gray coat.
Zheng yuluos lips curved into a smile. She pressed her face against her coat and rubbed it gently. Then, she muttered,Youre still alive, right? But, why didnt youe and find me?
The morning sun shone through the window and filled the entire room. It was warm and bright, giving Zheng yuluo the strength to continue moving forward.
She squatted down and picked up the diamonds one by one. She counted a total of 19 diamonds, and not a single one was missing. Then, she carefully put the diamonds back into her pocket.
She put away the cigarette, put the clothes in the innermost part of the cab, closed the cab, and limped out of the room, going downstairs.
Her foot was a little swollen, so she could not go to work today.
Seeing his daughters ankle swollen like a steamed bun, Zheng Jing med himself and Zheng Lun even shed tears.
The couple went straight to the hospital with their two daughters. They pulled Mu Qing and asked him to check on Zheng yuluo.
Mu Qing massaged Zheng yuluo and felt that she should be fine. But seeing Zheng Jings angry eyes, he quickly told his son,Sen, hurry up. Take yuluo for an X-ray to see if her bones are injured.
Mu Sen smiled and agreed. He pushed a wheelchair over and let Zheng yuluo sit in it. Then, he followed Zheng Yuwei to take Zheng yuluo to the CT scan.
After the CT scan, mu Sen pushed Zheng yuluo back to the office. He handed the CT scan to Mu Qing and said with a smile,His bones are fine. He probably twisted his ankle while walking in high heels. He pulled his ligament, and its a little inmed and swollen. Hell be fine after some rest and some anti-inmmatory medicine.
Mu Sen was wearing a white coat. He had just returned from studying abroad and his medical skills had improved a lot. He had also be more mature.
He had inherited Mu Qings handsome looks. He was tall and straight, looking warm and friendly.
It was easy for doctors to gain the trust of others, especially for someone like mu Sen who came from a family of doctors. He had been a doctor since he was young and could easily treat minor illnesses like sprains.
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun both appreciated mu Sen and were relieved to hear that Zheng yuluo was fine.
Zheng Jing and Mu Qing had not seen each other for a long time and they started to chat soon. Zheng Lun sat beside them and said a few words with a smile.
Mu Sen smiled and prescribed medicine for Zheng yuluo, reminding her of some things to pay attention to. He told her that if she sprained her ankle in the future, she should remember to apply an ice pack first, so that it would not be too swollen and painful the next day.
He had a sunny face, a warm smile, and a gentle voice. He seemed to be more patient than Deng kun.
Zheng Jing suddenly had an idea when he saw mu Sen spraying the medicine to relieve the swelling and pain on his daughters ankle.
Mu Qing, does your Sen have a girlfriend?
Mu Qing was surprised and then looked at the two beautiful twin girls sitting beside his son with a strange look.
I haven t. Why? do you want your daughter to be my daughter-inw?
I can t? My daughter is beautiful and virtuous. If your family marries her, itll be a great profit!
Mu Qing trusted Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun, but he didnt interfere with mu Sens Affairs of love and marriage, as long as mu Sen didnt go home with any other women.
Her son had gone abroad to study for more than a year. Who knew if he had a girlfriend overseas?
He didnt dare to make a decision for his son.
Hearing what Zheng Jing and Mu Qing had said, mu Sen was stunned.
No way, he had just returned to the country for a few days and someone was already matchmaking him?
His gaze swept across Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuweis faces. He felt that the two sisters looked too simr. If not for their different hairstyles, he would not have been able to tell who was who.
She used to y with the sisters when she was little, but they hadnt yed together since Jing Zhis ident.
Later on, they had little contact with each other. Mu Sen only knew that Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi had been entangled and deeply in love. Thest emergency he had before going abroad was Zheng yuluo, who had received treatment with Mu Qing.
The daughter that Zheng Jing was talking about should be Zheng Yuwei, not Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei had the same opinion as mu Sen, but not because of Jing Zhi, but because they both thought that Zheng Jing was determined to marry Zheng yuluo to the Deng family and would not match her with mu Sen.
Zheng Yuwei had no intention of getting married. She looked at Zheng Jing in a daze and stuttered,This, this Dad, I dont have to be in such a hurry, right?
I am not talking about you, I am talking about your sister. Zheng Jing shook his head.
Everyone else in the room looked at Zheng Jing with their eyes wide open.
Mu Qing knew about the matter between Zheng yuluo and Deng kun. He was a little annoyed. His good brother was too unreliable. A few days ago, he said that he would let Zheng yuluo and Deng kun get engaged. Why did he have the idea of getting his son today?
Although Zheng yuluo was beautiful, she wasnt that popr, was she?
Mu Sen was also stunned!
What kind of international joke is this!
Zheng yuluo was Jing Zhis woman. If he dared to touch her, he would have to stay in the hospital for half a month the next day!
He had been abroad for more than a year, but he didnt know that Zheng yuluo and Deng kun were in a rtionship. He just felt that he didnt have the ability topete with Jing Zhi, who had extraordinary physical strength and speed.
Besides, he did not like Zheng yuluos type!
Zheng yuluo was the most shocked person in the room.
She felt that her father had gone crazy and was trying to get her married as soon as possible.
Mu Sen clearly only treated her as a patient and did not have any romantic feelings for her. Even if he reluctantly agreed to marry her, would they be happy in the future?
Zheng yuluos heart turned cold, but she endured the pain and raised her head. She forced a smile at mu Sen. Dont mind it. My dad was just joking. My sister and I are the best in his eyes. Just listen to him. Dont take it to heart.
Zheng Yuwei alsoughed.Oh my, mu Sen. My dad must have thought that youre young and promising. He wants a son like you!
Mu Sens self-restraint had always been good. He did not embarrass the two sisters and echoed,Not bad, not bad. Uncle has good taste, and I also think Im quite handsome! Otherwise, how could he have reced my dad and be the Prince Charming of our hospital?
Chapter 1333
Chapter 1333: I dont care about anything else
Trantor: 549690339
Mu Sens words were humorous and he did not seem to take Zheng Jings words seriously. The atmosphere became much better.
Mu Qing threw a pen at his sons head and scolded him with a smile, Youre so narcissistic! I didnt learn anything else after going abroad, but Ive learned how to be glib!
Mu Sen nimbly dodged the pen, his smile especially bright. Im handsome and you wont let me say it? you must be jealous because Im more handsome than you!
He talked andughed with Mu Qing, and even praised Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun for their youth. Finally, they changed the topic.
Zheng Jing didnt mention anything about marriage, but asked about mu Sens experience abroad.
Mu Sen heaved a long sigh of relief. He thought that he had to stay away from Zheng Jing when he came to the hospital again.
His father and Zheng Jing had been friends for decades. He didnt want to ruin their rtionship just because he didnt want to marry Zheng yuluo.
After the Zheng family had left, Mu Qing started to nag at his son with a frown.Ah Sen, dont be fooled. Old Zheng has been crazy about marrying Zheng yuluo off in the past year. Zheng yuluo has a boyfriend who she has been in a rtionship with for a year, his name is Deng kun. He was about to be engaged, but I dont know why he has his eyes on you!
Aiya, this is strange. Go home and y these few days. Donte to the hospital!
No matter which daughter he has, dont even think about her. He treasures her! Especially the younger one, shes bing more and more like him. He definitely cant bear to let Zheng Yuwei get married so easily.
Mu Sen looked at Mu Qing in shock,Dad, I thought you were the kind of person who would risk your life for your friend. Why did you stab your brother right after he left?
Bullshit!
Mu Qing red at his son.What do you know? it is natural that I have a close rtionship with him. I will help him when he is in trouble, but I cant give up my sons happiness for no reason! These are two different things!
Mu Sen smiled and his heart was filled with warmth. He ttered Mu Qing and said,My dad is the best father in the world. Hes loyal and loves his children! Ill be filial to you in the future!
But, isnt Zheng yuluo a couple with Jing Zhi? Theyre so in love, when did they break up?
No, Zheng yuluo lost her memory. She remembered everything except Jing Zhi.
This Isnt Jing Zhi a little too pitiful?
Mu Sen was gloating. When Jing Zhi had just returned to A city a few years ago, he had been bullied by the brothers, Jing Rui and Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo had actually forgotten about Jing Zhi. This method of revenge was really enough to make people vomit blood.
Mu Sen shook his head and left Mu Qings office. He took off his white coat, changed into his own clothes and went downstairs.
His car was parked in the newly built underground parking lot of the hospital. From a distance, he saw a tall and thin figure wearing a hat standing next to his car.
He walked closer and saw that it was Jing Zhi.
How could this person be so easily nagged at? she had just finished talking to him upstairs and she had already met him downstairs.
What are you doing here? To see a doctor? Did you think I wouldnt recognize you if you covered your face so tightly? I can even identify bone ashes, so I can recognize you even if you turn into ashes.
Jing Zhi raised his head and looked at mu Sen coldly. He said,Youve been abroad for more than a year. Have you been killing people? No wonder youre so talkative. Youve been with a dead person for so long with no one to talk to, you must be bored, right?
Mu Sen admitted that he was no match for Jing Zhi when it came to his venomous tongue.
Moreover, after hearing what Mu Qing had said, he knew that Zheng yuluo had forgotten about Jing Zhi and was with another man. Mu Sen felt some sympathy for Jing Zhi.
If theres nothing else, you should move aside. I have to drive home.
Jing Zhi didnt move. He was wearing a mask and a hat that covered half of his face. He didnt expect mu Sen to recognize him from a distance after not seeing him for more than a year.
Why did some people remember him, but Zheng yuluo could not?
To this day, Jing Zhi still didnt understand why Zheng yuluo had forgotten about him. Perhaps she had hated him too much back then?
Hows Zheng yuluos foot?
You know that Zheng yuluo sprained her ankle? mu Sen looked at Jing Zhi in surprise.
I know, Jing Zhi replied after a moment of silence.
Didnt you two Didnt Zheng yuluo forget you? Shes going to marry someone else, yet youre still so concerned about her!
Mu Sen couldnt help but say a few words to Jing Zhi, but he regretted it after saying them.
What if Jing Zhi got angry and beat him up? he would never be able to beat Jing Zhi.
However, Jing Zhi was very calm. He stood there quietly, without any sign of anger.
Was this still the hot-tempered Jing Zhi?
The violent nature in his blood was actually suppressed by him?
Mu Sen was a doctor and he knew how powerful the virus in Jing Zhis blood was. The virus could bring him great power and the side effects would be great.
It was difficult for ordinary people to resist the kind of violence that seeped out from their bones.
The fact that Jing Zhi was able to suppress it now was enough to prove that he had suffered a lot of inhumane torture over the past year.
For some reason, mu Sens heart ached when he saw Jing Zhi in this state.
Why was he still arguing with Jing Zhi?
Was there anyone in this world who was more miserable than him?
When he was a child, they studied and yed in the beautiful campus, but he was treated as an experimental subject and imprisoned in the Virus Research Institute.
They squeezed out all of his value and trained him into a killing machine. In order to prevent him from running away, they even buried all kinds of chips with strong radiation in his body.
It was already very rare for him to be able to maintain his human rationality and slowly integrate into normal human society.
Mu Sen sighed and his tone finally became gentle.Give me your wrist.
What are you doing?
Ill take your pulse. Youve lost a lot of weightpared to a year ago, and your personality has changed a lot. You should go for aprehensive physical examination.
Its okay, Im not sick,Jing Zhi refused indifferently.
Im not saying that youre sick. Im just afraid that the virus in your body will be abnormal or mutate. Dont worry, its just a normal physical examination. You just need to cooperate with the doctor to draw blood for testing.
Mu Sen knew that Jing Zhi hated hospitals and all kinds of equipment because of his childhood trauma. He couldnt stand having his blood drawn, so he tried to persuade Jing Zhi.
No need. Just tell me how Zheng yuluos foot is. I dont care about anything else.
Mu Sen was so angry at Jing Zhi that he almost fell down!
No matter how good his self-restraint was, he couldnt stand the other partys anger!
What did he mean by other?
He was concerned about Jing Zhis health. That was none of his business.
Chapter 1334
Chapter 1334: The white-haired Jing Zhi
Trantor: 549690339
Is Zheng yuluos injury more important than your own life? That little injury of hers would be healed in two or three days! And you? If you dont take care of your body and all your normal cells are devoured by the virus, youll have to report to the King of Hell!
Mu Sen was furious, but he couldnt ignore it. He stepped forward, grabbed Jing Zhis wrist, and took his pulse.
Jing Zhi subconsciously wanted to pull his hand back, but mu Sen stared at him sternly. Dont move! Do you think Im just checking someones pulse? If your surname wasnt Jing, I wouldnt have bothered with you!
Im not sick!
Yes, many mental patients say they are normal! Drunkards would never admit that they were drunk! Which type are you?
Jing Zhi was silent for a moment before he suddenly said,Youve changed,
People change. Youve changed too, and youve changed much more than I have. Also, I have to tell you that Zheng yuluo has changed. Its better if you dont think about her anymore.
This is my business.
No, no, no. Its your business, but her father wants to match her with me today. This is not just your business anymore!
What did you say? Jing Zhis expression turned cold.
You heard it right. Zheng Jing wants to marry Zheng yuluo into our family. Of course, I didnt agree! Dont misunderstand me, I dont have that kind of feeling for Zheng yuluo. I just want to remind you that the Zheng family seems to be in a hurry to get her married.
Ive been thinking about it. The Zheng family must be afraid that youll be concerned about Zheng yuluo, so theyre in such a hurry. Without you as a threat, the Zheng family wont force Zheng yuluo to get married and I wont have to be dragged by Zheng Jing to make up the numbers.
When their family came to the hospital this morning, the atmosphere was very strange. Zheng yuluo didnt say a word the whole time and ignored everyone. She probably had a fight with her family.
Mu Sen talked a lot to distract Jing Zhi, but as he touched Jing Zhis pulse, he frowned.
Whats going on? How did you overdraw your body so much!
After mu Sen finished taking her pulse, his expression was rather ugly.
He took off Jing Zhis hat and looked at his hair. He said in shock and anger,Your hair has turned white. Why dont youe to the hospital for treatment?!
Jing Zhi wasnt angry that mu Sen had taken off his hat. He knew that mu Sen wasntughing at him, but was concerned about him.
He took back his hat and put it on his head. He said indifferently,Its fine, its fine if youre white! His hair will turn white sooner orter.
What do you mean by white? Jing Zhi, youre only twenty-three years old! A year ago, your hair was all ck. Do you think its normal to have so much white hair now?
Jing Zhi had known about the change in his hair a long time ago, but he didnt care.
In the first few months after losing Zheng yuluo, he felt that everything had lost its meaning. He did not care whether his hair was ck or white.
Seeing Zheng yuluo with other men every day, talking andughing, he could only numb himself with alcohol.
For the past year, he had been drinking and smoking every day without eating much. He knew better than anyone else that his body had been constantly overdrawing.
You dont have to worry about my business. Just treat Zheng yuluos foot injury. Dont leave any seque that will affect your walking in the future.
Mu Sen was furious,youre about to lose your life, and you still care about Zheng yuluos foot injury?! I didnt know you were so selfless!
Jing Zhis expression finally changed a little. Its that serious? Its just that I havent had a good rest recently, dont be an rmist.
Recently? Which one was the closest? In thest three to four hundred days! Did you not rest well? You didnt rest at all! Hes also severelycking in nutrition and has been eating wine every day. Sooner orter, hell die from drinking too much!
Mu Sen did not make any rmist statements. He was a doctor. When he judged a patients condition, he would always be realistic.
Casually exaggerating the illness and making it sound very serious would not only cause a great psychological burden to the patient, but it would also easily ruin his medical ethics and reputation.
After you go back, eat well! Eat more nutritious food, and most importantly, you must quit drinking! Change your living habits!
Jing Zhi didnt think there was anything wrong with him. He just felt a little stuffy in his chest.
On the other hand, mu Sen could tell that he had been drinking for a long time just by checking his pulse. He really had some real talent.
However, it was impossible to quit drinking.
I wont die. There are nutrients in the wine. I wont feel hungry after drinking it. Its almost the same as eating.
Mu Sen was so angry at Jing Zhi that he almost vomited blood!
He had been a doctor for a long time and had studied both Chinese and Western medicine for a long time. This was the first time he had heard that wine could be eaten!
Dont tell me that youre going to give up on your health just because Zheng yuluo has forgotten about you and is in a rtionship with someone else?
Mu Sens originally handsome eyebrows were about to knit together. He had also liked girls before, but when he found out that Lou ruofei didnt like him much, he was sad for a while before he returned to his normal life.
Why were all the members of family Jing so devoted?
Jing Zhi would have flown into a rage if he had heard someone else say that Zheng yuluo had forgotten about him in the past. Jin Xin had been scolded by Jing Zhi countless times because of this.
But now, he was able to ept this fact very calmly.
It seemed that a persons tolerance would always get stronger and stronger. In the past, he would cry for an entire day when his lollipop was stolen, butter on, even if his girlfriend was stolen, he could still smile while his heart bled.
Jing Zhis impression of mu Sen had changed greatly after this meeting. They had not been close when they were young, but now that they had matured, they could tolerate and support each other.
I opened a bar. If you want to drink, you can go. Ill give you a 20% discount.
Jing Zhi said faintly, then turned and left.
Mu Sen was still standing there and scolding him.Youre so heartless. Im concerned about your physical condition with good intentions. You still want me to drink? Do you want me to be an alcoholic? 20% off? Why not free? Hey, Jing Zhi, I want a free drink!
Mu Sen had been a good student since he was young. He had never been to a ce like a bar.
It was not that Mu Qing did not allow him to go, but that he had to go to school, treat patients, and perform surgeries every day. He was so busy that he did not even have time to sleep. How could he have the time to drink?
Now that he could finally rest for a few days after returning to China, mu Sen couldnt help but go to Jing Zhis Bar the next night.
When he arrived, there were very few people.
Mu Sen went straight to Jing Zhi, who was hiding in the corner, and said,Isnt your bar a little too quiet?

Jing Zhi frowned,how did you know the address of my bar? How did you recognize me when Im dressed like this?
He was wearing a hoodie today, and therge hoodie covered his entire face, only revealing his chin. His clothes were not his usual style, so how did mu Sen recognize him?
Mu Sen sat down beside him and said proudly,Do you think that everyone is as stupid as you? I knew it. You must have opened the bar near Zheng yuluospany. There are only two bars here, and the other one has been open for almost ten years. This is the new one, so it must be yours.
As for recognizing you, Ive already said that I can even recognize ashes, let alone a living person. There are only seven people in the bar, including the waiters. Youre the most inhuman among them, so it didnt take me much effort to find you.
As mu Sen spoke, he snatched a ss of wine from Jing Zhi. He sniffed it and mumbled,its not drugged. Then he raised his neck and drank it.
Oh my God, this is too bad! Do you eat horse urine for food every day?
If it doesnt taste good, why did you drink it all?
Jing Zhi snapped his fingers at the waiter at the bar counter, and the waiter quickly brought a few bottles of wine over.
Mu Sen watched as Jing Zhi downed the bottle without a change in his expression. He couldnt help but act up his upational habit. Dont drink too much. Alcohol will damage your liver and kidney and stimte your gastric mucous membrane. As you have a special body, those viruses might mutate due to the existence of alcohol
Jing Zhi couldnt stand his nagging. He stuffed a bottle of wine into his hand and said,This bottle is not bad, try it.
Mu Sen was a little hesitant,really? I dont drink much, so dont lie to me.
Its fine if you dont want it, give it back to me.
Jing Zhi pretended to snatch it back, but mu Sen poured himself a cup with a smile and took a sip.
Oh, this is really not bad, its very cool! Its a little like an iced sprite!
Jing Zhi couldnt help but burst intoughter.You still call me mentally retarded? your IQ isnt that high either. Doctor mu Sen, you can even recognize ashes, but you cant recognize that this is sprite?
Ah?
Mu Sen quickly took another sip and savored the taste. It was indeed sprite!
It was just that a little grape juice was added to the sprite.
Mu Sen felt a little embarrassed. After all, he had been to many ces in the world, but he couldnt even tell the difference between a cocktail and sprite!
However, he really didnt drink alcohol or carbonated drinks. Drinking too much of these things was not good for the body. The MU family paid the most attention to health. He had stayed away from junk food and all kinds of carbonated drinks since he was a child.
On the other side, Jing Zhi was alreadyughing uncontrobly. He hadnt been this happy in a long time. Mu Sen made him happy as soon as he returned. What a good brother!
Drinking alcohol is also something that exposes ones intelligence. Mu Sen, you should drink less in the future. This way, you can also appear smarter.
Mu Sen was about to argue with him about intelligence when he looked up and saw Zheng yuluo walking in slowly in an elegant light light purple dress.
Mu Sen looked at Jing Zhi in shock,why is Zheng yuluo here? Does she know that you own this bar?
Jing Zhis entire body was hidden in the shadows. He said in a light tone,I know, but I also dont know.
When did you learn to y Zen?
Mu Sen muttered. Seeing Zheng yuluo walking over, the expression on his face immediately changed to a polite smile.
He could be very casual with Jing Zhi, but he was a little careful with Zheng yuluo.
This girl was Jing Zhis sweetheart, and he always felt that the soft and weak Zheng yuluo was particrly fragile and had to be treated with care.
Zheng yuluo was surprised to see mu Sen and Jing Zhi sitting together.You know each other?
Mu Sen was just about to say of course, when Jing Zhi said,I dont know him. Didnt you sprain your ankle? Why did youe out to drink?
Mu Sen could only swallow the words he was about to say.
How could he have forgotten that Zheng yuluo had forgotten all about the past?
My leg is much better! Why are you guys sitting together if you dont know each other?
Zheng yuluo was a little confused, but Jing Zhi immediately stood up and walked to another sofa to sit down. He looked like he really didnt know mu Sen, which made mu Sen a little speechless.
Mu Sen didnt quite understand the rtionship between Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo, but they seemed to be ordinary friends.
Could it be that Zheng yuluo had forgotten about Jing Zhi, met him here, and became friends with him again?
No matter what, if Jing Zhi wanted to put on an act, then he had to y along.
Mu Sen took the wine from the table and walked to Jing Zhi. He said pretentiously,Brother, lets have a drink and be friends. I saw that your footsteps were weak and your face was pale. It seems that your body is deficient. I happen to be a doctor, so I can help you take a look!
Jing Zhi didnt know what was going on, but he suddenly felt likeughing.
When did mu Sen, who was once the most serious and serious person, turn into such a funny person?
Life abroad shouldnt have such a big impact on people, right?
Before Jing Zhi could speak, Zheng yuluo spoke first,Mu Sen, whats wrong with him? Is there a problem with your body?
It wasnt easy to meet someone who could control Jing Zhi, and mu Sen wouldnt let go of this opportunity.
He immediately said,thats right. Look at how pale he looks and how skinny he is. Its obvious that he has been drinking for a long time. His fingers are also a little yellow. He must be a heavy smoker. If this goes on, hell probably get stomach cancer or lung cancer. In any case, he doesnt have many days left to live!
What? Zheng yuluo was shocked.Its that serious?
Yuluo, you dont believe in my medical skills? My family name is mu, and my family has been
I do!
Mu Sen did not need to say anything. As long as his surname was mu, Zheng yuluo would really trust him.
Of course I believe you, but I think hes in good health. Im a little scared when you say that.
Zheng yuluo looked at Jing Zhi, who was sitting on the sofa, with concern. Was he sick? She did not know anything and did not understand him at all.
She had already said that she would nevere back, but she could not control her heart.
Her feet were still hurting, but she had sneaked out of the house and ran here.
Zheng yuluo felt very satisfied the moment she saw Jing Zhi.
The moment she heard that there was something wrong with his body, she could not control herself. She wanted to rify things with mu Sen. Otherwise, if he really got cancer, what would she do?
Mu Sen saw that Zheng yuluo looked even more anxious than Jing Zhi, so he asked her,Yuluo, whats your rtionship with this person? Friends? You dont have to be afraid. In his condition, he can still live for a few more months. You cane here and drink more wine, so that he can earn some money and buy a good grave.

Chapter 1336: Someone is taking care of it
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi sighed helplessly. Mu Sen was really good at scaring Zheng yuluo. Didnt he know that she had always been timid? If he said that, she would be frightened.
He looked up at Zheng yuluo and saw that her eyes were filled with tears. He could not help but say,Dont listen to this kind of doctors nonsense. Theres nothing wrong with my body. Its not the time to buy a grave yet.
Hes not a doctor, hes from the MU family! His medical skills are especially good, quickly let him take a look at you!
When it came to life and death, the small conflicts from the past two days were nothing.
Zheng yuluo didnt dare to take Jing Zhis life as a joke, so she insisted that mu Sen treat Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi would usually obey Zheng yuluos words unconditionally, so he handed his hand to mu Sen obediently.
Mu Sen looked at Zheng yuluo in surprise.
It was rare for someone to subdue Jing Zhi, who was so stubborn. He didnt seem to be so obedient even in front of Jing Rui.
It was really true that everything had its weakness!
Zheng yuluo looked weak, but she didnt expect Jing Zhi to be so intimidating.
That would make things easier. He just had to ask Zheng yuluo to keep an eye on Jing Zhi and not let him drink or smoke.
Yuluo, Im not exaggerating at all. Your friends body is seriously overdrawn. He looks very young, but his bodys organs have already entered a period of decline. If you dont believe me, you can just look at his hair.
The more Zheng yuluo heard, the more frightened she became. She carefully took off Jing Zhis hat.
Under the light, his hair was a shocking white.
She had taken off Jing Zhis hat before, but she had only been focused on his handsome face. She hadnt noticed that his hair had turned white.
Zheng yuluo burst into tears. She suddenly hugged Jing Zhis neck and sobbed,Why didnt you tell me you were sick? I thought you didnt want me because you didnt like me!
Jing Zhi patted Zheng yuluos head and said softly,Im not sick. Many people have white hair. If you dont think it looks good, Ill dye it ck.
Youre lying! If mu Sen says you have something to do, then you have something to do! Hes the doctor!
You trust him that much? But I dont think hes a good person. Dont be fooled by him. Is your leg really fine? Mu Doctor Have you seen a doctor?
Jing Zhi almost said,didnt mu Sen ask you to rest more? but he managed to keep it in.
Fortunately, Zheng yuluo had already mentioned mu Sens name and profession before, so it did not matter if he said mu Sens name.
Zheng yuluo didnt suspect anything. She was focused on Jing Zhis health.
Ive seen a doctor. It was mu Sen who helped me take an X-ray. My bone is fine. Its just a little strained, but its not a big deal! Dont worry about me, go to the hospital for a physical examination first!
Mu Sen sat at the side and watched the two of them hug each other as if there was no one else around. He suddenly felt that he was a little redundant!
Didnt the two of them break up?
Didnt Zheng yuluo lose her memory?
Wasnt Zheng Jing going to marry his daughter to Deng kun?
Who could tell him what was going on?!
Mu Sen shook his head and helplessly drank his sprite. Then, he was tortured by the two people beside him.
If he had not promised Zheng Jing to marry Zheng yuluo, he would have made a fool of himself.
Jing Zhi held Zheng yuluo in his arms andforted her for a while before she managed to calm down.
Zheng yuluo reluctantly let go of Jing Zhis hand and turned to mu Sen,Does he need to be hospitalized? Do you need surgery?
Then well have to do a full body examination first to know.
Jing Zhis body was too special, and mu Sen was not very confident. He was not trying to scare Zheng yuluo, but Jing Zhis body really had a problem.
Jing Zhi was the only one who didnt think it was a big deal. He thought he was just being an rmist.
How about this? you can take him to family MUs Hospital one day. I have to draw his blood for a test and then check the condition of his organ failure. From today onwards, you cant drink or smoke. Eat more nutrients to nourish your body.
I Okay, I know.
Zheng yuluo gritted her teeth and agreed.
As the bar became more and more lively, mu Sen finally realized that it wasnt because Jing Zhis Bar was too quiet, but because it wasnt time yet!
He went to the bar in high spirits and ordered a variety of drinks. He tried them one by one and said to the waiter,Im your bosss friend. He said that the wine is on his tab!
The waiter didnt dare to make the decision on his own, so he directly reported this matter to the bar manager, Jin Xin, who was busy greeting the resident singers.
Mu Sen didnt know Jin Xin, but Jin Xin knew mu Sen. He waved to the waiter and said,This handsome guy here is free!
Mu Sen felt that Jin Xin had given him a lot of face. He didnt even ask Jing Zhi, the boss, and directly gave him a free meal.
He raised his wine ss and began to chat with Jin Xin as if they were brothers.
After chatting for a while, mu Sens upational habit acted up again.Old Jin, did you do some adjustments to your face? ording to the structure of the human body, your proportion is out of bnce!
The current Jin Xin looked especially young, and he was very proud of himself. Heughed and said,How is it? handsome, right? I took a look at Jing Zhis face and injected him with some hyaluronic acid and some brutal toxins. He looked at least ten years younger, and there were no side effects!
He made it sound easy, but in fact, bing younger was only one of the reasons. The more important reason was that after the minor adjustments, his appearance would change, and Zheng yuluo would not recognize him.
At first, Jin Xin had been against micro-stic surgery, but after filling his face with hyaluronic acid, some of the wrinkles on his face disappeared, and his skin became better. Young girls also liked to chat with him, and he fell in love with micro-stic surgery.
He finally understood why female celebrities were loyal fans of hyaluronic acid.
Mu Sen alsoughed. As a doctor, he was not against micro-stic surgery. On the contrary, if it could really make people more beautiful and confident, he could make appropriate changes.
As long as he didnt overdo it, it was fine.
He took a closer look at Jin Xins face and even gave him some serious suggestions for improvement. Jin Xin seemed to have found a soulmate, and they chatted enthusiastically.
Jing Zhi, who was sitting not far away, smiled when he saw Jin Xins radiant face.
Jin Xin had been more meticulous in managing this bar than he was. Now that he had met someone he could get along with, he had not treated mu Sen to a drink in vain.
Im talking to you, did you hear me?
Zheng yuluos delicate voice rang in Jing Zhis ear. He turned around and saw her pouting. Her eyes were watery as if she wasining about his evil deeds.
I heard you. Didnt you forbid me from drinking? I wont drink anymore.
You cant smoke either!
Yes, I wont smoke.
You need to go to the hospital for a physical examination!
Alright, lets go,
Chapter 1337
Chapter 1337: The gentle sweetness
Trantor: 549690339
This kind of conversation was especially like the conversation between an intimate couple. Zheng yuluo was a little puzzled and asked,Why do I feel like weve known each other for a long time? I seem to talk to you very naturally.
Jing Zhi smiled but didnt say anything.
Weve known each other for a long time, since we were born. Ive seen you on the first day you were born.
Its been twenty-two years, and youve always been in my life, pestering me.
Its a pity that youve forgotten everything.
Zheng yuluo fell silent as well. She had been in a daze recently. She felt that everyone she saw looked familiar and everything she did seemed familiar. However, when she thought about it carefully, she could not remember anything.
She had forgotten one person, and now she was in love with another. What if she thought of him in the future?
Zheng Jing had been urging her to get married as soon as possible. There were only ten days left before the engagement.
Zheng yuluos heart was in a mess.
Jing Zhi suddenly wrapped his arm around her waist and whispered in her ear, Dont let your thoughts run wild, and dont worry. You just have to be happy and continue working and living. Thats all.
Zheng yuluo turned around and looked into Jing Zhis eyes.
Only then did she realize that his eyes were so deep. Her shadow was reflected in his eyes, and they were filled with deep affection that could not be dissolved.
She raised her hand and caressed Jing Zhis thin face. Ive lost my memory. I seem to have forgotten very important things and people. This kind of life doesnt seem to be very happy. My work and life have already been arranged. If I go on like this, my life will indeed be particrly stable, without any twists and turns. I can bear with it for a year or two, but I cant bear to live like this for the rest of my life.
Jing Zhi reached out and held Zheng yuluos hand. He felt bitter in his heart, but he still smiled at her.When you have your own family and children, your heart will be filled. You wont be bothered by the things youve forgotten.
Who do you have children with? With you? If it was you, I wouldnt have gone looking for my memories. If it wasnt for you, I would have gotten my memories back no matter what.
If that was the case, whether Zheng yuluo recovered her memory or not, she would still choose Jing Zhi in the end.
Jing Zhi smiled from the bottom of his heart.
Fate was so coincidental, and it seemed to always give him a glimmer of hope. No matter which way his woman went, the person she would eventually meet would be him.
He gently stroked her hair and said in a doting tone,Yuluo, youre getting more and more adorable. However, I cant have children. If youre with me, your life will be dark. I dont want to be a burden to you.
Zheng yuluo especially liked to hear Jing Zhi call her name. His voice was very nice and had a strange sexiness that could always make her heart throb.
Why cant I?
Zheng yuluo was a little confused. She bit her lip and asked,Did you try it with your ex-girlfriend?
Jing Zhi couldnt help butugh. He pinched Zheng yuluos cheeks hard and said with a smile,Yes, Ive tried, but even if I dont try, I know I cant have children.
Zheng yuluo didnt know that Jing Zhi had tried it with her. When she heard that Jing Zhi had slept with another woman, her heart ached.
This is not fair! Youre already a veteran in love, but Im still a newbie!
Oh, yuluo, dont say that too early. We dont know if youre a newbie yet.
Zheng yuluo was angered by Jing Zhis meaningful tone. She said hurriedly,Ive never been close to any other man! If you dont believe me, you can verify it yourself! Theres nothing going on between Deng kun and me, were innocent!
People with amnesia were actually so fun to y with!
She had long lost her virginity to him, but she still thought that she was a nk piece of paper.
He even knew the size of her undergarments clearly. He just didnt know if his chest had gotten bigger since he hadnt touched her for so long.
Jing Zhi couldnt hide the smile on his face.
Well, I believe you. With your taste, you definitely wont be interested in someone like Deng kun.
This was more like it!
Zheng yuluo felt a little better, but then she thought of Jing Zhis infertility, so she whispered in Jing Zhis ear,It doesnt matter if we have children or not. We can adopt one in the future.
Jing Zhi sighed softly. He was already wavering.
He did not know if he should tell Zheng yuluo that he was the one she had forgotten.
He didnt know if he should show up in front of Zheng Jing with Zheng yuluo and ask Zheng Jing to help them.
His life was destined to not be peaceful. If he got Zheng yuluo involved again, would it be good or bad?
Jing Zhi didnt say anything. He just held Zheng yuluo tightly, lowered his head, found her soft lips, and kissed her gently.
Yu Luo, what should I do?
If I were to take you away, would I be too selfish?
Will you me me in the future?
Being hugged and kissed by him again, Zheng yuluo was extremely happy!
The bar was dimly lit and noisy, which covered Zheng yuluos Red face and her seductive moans.
Mu Sen was a little tipsy. He turned his head and saw the two of them hugging and kissing on the sofa. He poked Jin Xin beside him and said, Whats going on with these two? Were they together again? Jing Zhi Is he in love with two Zheng yuluo?
Jin Xin, who had drunk a little too much, chuckled and said, Thats good. While youre still young, love one more time! Zheng yuluo still couldnt remember who Jing Zhi was, but she fell in love with him again! You should hurry up and find a girlfriend, its a waste of youth if youre not a Casanova, haha!
Jin Xin was very satisfied with his current life. He lived a fulfilling and carefree life every day. As his boss, Jing Zhi never restricted him and gave him the most authority.
He would asionally dance and drink with the little beauties in the bar. He didnt have to worry about food or clothes, and his life was particrly free!
That was why he wanted Jing Zhi to be free and easy.
Zheng yuluo was his woman to begin with. It was only right for them to hug and be lovey-dovey!
That night, Jing Zhi drove Zheng yuluo back to the Zheng family.
This was the first time he had sent Zheng yuluo home in such a long time.
Jing Zhi watched Zheng yuluo enter the Zheng familys Vi before he drove away.
Zheng Jing was sitting in the living room. Seeing Zheng yuluoe in, he asked with a frown,Your foot hasnt recovered yet, where did you go? Who sent you back?
Zheng yuluo was very happy that night. She could still feel Jing Zhis body temperature and breath on her. She didnt mind Zheng Jings bad tone because she was happy.
Its just a few steps, theres no need to be so delicate. I have a friend who sent me back. Hes a good person, so Ill get him to visit you in the future.
Friend? Which friend?
Chapter 1338
Chapter 1338: Self-inflicted
Trantor: 549690339
You wouldnt know him even if I told you, so dont ask.
Which of your friends do I not know? Tell me his name and Ill investigate him in case he has any ill intentions. Youre a girl outside, so you have to be careful. Be careful not to be cheated by others!
The smile on Zheng yuluos face gradually disappeared.
Yes, thats right. Her father knew every one of her friends. He had a very strict control over the people around her.
She had to get Zheng Jings permission before making friends.
In the past, Zheng yuluo had also thought that her father loved her too much and that he was protecting her.
But now, she only felt a little sad.
Would her family only be satisfied if she became a Canary in a cage?
Dad, Im an adult. I can make my own decisions in my own life. You dont need to check on my friends. At least, hes more reliable than Deng kun, whom youve carefully selected.
How can I not investigate?
Zheng Jing was very worried. He had always felt that his daughter was an innocent and innocent girl and that he had to help her make friends.
Why is Deng kun unreliable? How was his appearance and character not good? Whats your friends name, what does he do, whos his family, where he goes to school
No need, Im tired. Im going back to sleep. You should rest early too.
Zheng yuluo suddenly lost the desire to argue with Zheng Jing.
Even if she knew Jing Zhis name, she wouldnt tell Zheng Jing so that he could find out everything about him.
The things that could be found were all external. The things that couldnt be found were peoples hearts!
Deng kun was not a man of his words. He had clearly been fooling around with Chen Yixuan but he still acted so affectionately in front of her parents. This kind of person was the scariest.
If she got married in the future, no one would believe Deng kuns bad deeds. Instead, they would think that she was the one throwing a tantrum.
Zheng yuluo would never marry such a person.
She returned to her room and curled up on her bed. For a moment, she really wanted to sell a few diamonds, buy a small house far away from home, and move out to live alone.
However, she was only thinking about it. There were 19 diamonds in total, which represented her birthday. She was not willing to sell a single one.
Zheng yuluo rested at home for a total of three days. She went to work before her foot had fully recovered.
It wasnt that she didnt care about her body, but she felt that the house was cold and the atmosphere was oppressive. Her parents and sister would always take turns to talk to her and persuade her not to be willful and to get married.
Inparison, work made her morefortable.
As soon as she went to work, Liu Xiaoying told Zheng yuluo a big piece of news.
Chen Yiqian was fired by thepany.
She was unemployed!
This woman really deserves it. She dug her own grave. Not only did she lose her job, but she also has a bad reputation in the design industry. I dont think anypany will want her in the future.
Liu Xiaoying had always found Chen yizhao an eyesore. Now that she had an ambiguous rtionship with Deng kun, she disliked Chen yizhao even more.
Many people believed Deng kuns words and thought that Chen Yiqians bed photos were photoshopped. However, Liu Xiaoying felt that even if they were photoshopped, there was definitely something fishy about it!
Otherwise, how could Chen Yiran be so domineering and arrogant when she challenged Zheng yuluo?
Yes, she was fired. She didnt leave on her own ord. When thepany wants her in the future, theyll definitely ask why she was fired. Its a taboo in anypany to have rtionships with men and women.
Zheng yuluo felt that Chen yizhao deserved such an ending. She had never argued with Chen yizhao not because she was magnanimous, but because she had more important things in her heart. She did not have the energy to argue with Chen yizhao.
Moreover, she always felt that if she were to argue with Chen yizhao, it would be embarrassing for her as it would lower her ss for no reason.
Liu Xiaoying didnt like her either, but she had been holding it in, not daring to re up. After quarreling, they would still see each other every day, and it would be too awkward.
Now that Chen Yixuan had finally left, Zheng yuluo felt much more at ease.
By staying away from scumbags, work would be particrly smooth.
The atmosphere in thepany was much better without Chen Yiyi. However, Chen Yiyi was so angry that she smashed a few cups at home.
Now, she was surrounded by enemies.
Not only did Deng kun not want her anymore, but he also refused to mention that they had slept together that day. He even said that she was spreading rumors and making trouble, so she should know her ce.
Thepany had also fired her, and she had no source of ie. She couldnt even pay her rent, and thendlord had urged her several times.
She was from the moonlight n and was a spendthrift. She didnt want to live in a poor ce that others would look down on, so she rented a well-decorated apartment. The monthly rent was more than three thousand Yuan, which was half of her sry.
There wasnt much money in her card now, and her credit card had been overdrawn. Her parents kept asking her for money to spend, and she was already at the end of her rope.
There was a hint of viciousness in Chen Yixis eyes. She put on makeup and changed into a low-cut sexy dress. She took a taxi to the bank where Deng kun worked.
In the afternoon, Deng kun had juste out of the bank when Chen Yiqian threw herself into his arms in front of many of his colleagues. She deliberately called out to him in a voice that everyone else could hear,Hubby, youre off work! I miss you so much!
Deng kuns colleagues all knew that he had a girlfriend and was about to get married, but most of them didnt know what his girlfriend looked like. They only heard that she was very beautiful.
Now that she saw Chen Yiqian, she automatically assumed that she was Deng kuns girlfriend.
Deng kun, your girlfriend is so beautiful! This figure, its so good that theres nothing to say!
Thats right, youve picked up a treasure! Youve been hiding it from us, but now you cant hide it anymore!
Deng kuns expression was stiff. He wanted to push Chen Yiqian away, but Chen Yiqians hands were tightly wrapped around his waist. He could not push her away at all.
He ignored his colleagues teasing and whispered in Chen yizhaos ear,Let go! Who asked you toe? Hurry up and get lost!
My dear, didnt you ask me toe? Chen Yiqians face was filled with sweetness. Didnt you say that youll take me for lunch? Lets go, we can eat at the same time as you. Itll be a good time for me to get to know them.
Deng kun immediately waved his hand to let his colleagues go first.
After everyone had left, Deng kun pushed away the woman who was lying on top of him.
Chen Yiqian was pushed to the ground. Her knees were injured and bleeding.
She gritted her teeth and stood up from the ground. She sneered,Deng kun, dont think you can get rid of me! I dont want to admit it after Ive done it? No way! Hurry up and give me the money, or Ill send all the photos of us to your colleague!
You want money?
Deng kun couldnt react for a moment. Did he hear it wrong?
Chen Yixuan had shamelessly slept with him once and was even asking him for money!
Chapter 1339
Chapter 1339: Losing freedom
Trantor: 549690339
This woman was really shameless!
Thinking that he had slept with such a woman, Deng kun was so disgusted that he wanted to vomit!
Get lost! Dont bother me anymore. If you want to send photos, then do so. You can try the consequences!
You dont mind? You act like a rich second-generation heir in front of your colleagues, but in fact, your family doesnt have money at all! If you lose your job because of those photos, what are you going to do?
Chen Yixi was ready to risk everything. She had nothing left anyway. If she did not quickly catch Deng kun, she would lose too badly this time!
She was barefoot and wasnt afraid of wearing shoes. She didnt care much about her reputation long ago.
Deng kun was handsome and had potential. He had means and strategies. He would definitely be a bank executive in the future and have endless money to spend!
Deng kun was indeed a little afraid of shameless people like Chen Yiqian. He cherished his reputation very much. Although he was a veteran in love, he had never touched the female colleagues around him so as not to affect his promotion and pay raise.
He grabbed Chen Yiqian and stuffed her into his car before leaving the bank with her.
Chen Yiqian did not continue to threaten him. She acted coquettishly and cried, saying that she had lost her job because of Zheng yuluo and had no ce to stay. She begged him to take her in.
Of course, Deng kun would not take her in. He took out a few thousand Yuan in frustration and threw it at Chen Yiqian, warning her,Youre not allowed toe to mypany again! Im going to marry her soon. If it werent for you, she wouldnt have wanted to break up!
Youre not really going to marry her, are you? Shes already made you a cuckold, and you still want her?
Chen Yiqians heart was burning with jealousy!
She felt that she was better than Zheng yuluo in every way, but she did not have a father who was the director of the Public Security Bureau!
She goes to the waiting bar every day and hugs and kisses the owner of the bar. Shes not a good person, yet you treat her like a treasure.
Chen Yiqians words made Deng kuns face turn gloomy.
He had guarded her for so long and had not touched Zheng yuluo. How could he bear to let someone else get there first?
Deng kun had no impression of the owner of the bar. Every time he went there, his attention was on various women. Now it seemed that he had to meet the owner.
I dont need you to tell me what Zheng yuluo is! Shes not clean, and youre even more dirty!
Im not clean, but Im not like her, pretending to be pure all day, but doing all kinds of shameful things behind her back! At least I seduced you openly, and Ive never hidden it.
Chen Yiqian felt that she was very noble. She lifted her skirt and sat on Deng kun, her hands teasing him.
After a while, Deng kun reacted.
Chen Yiqian smiled proudly. Her fingers were agile as she unbuckled Deng kuns belt and unzipped his pants. Then, she lowered her head and served him with all her might.
Deng kun wanted to drive Chen Yiqian away, but she was serving him too well. He closed his eyes and enjoyed it. He felt like he was floating in the clouds and had long forgotten about Zheng yuluo.
The two of them were in cahoots. Zheng yuluo was in a good mood when she saw that Deng kun did note for lunch.
She couldnt wait for Deng kun to nevere to her again.
She even hoped that Chen Yixi would work hard and win over Deng kun. These two people were a perfect match. It would be best if they stayed together forever and did note out to harm others.
When Zheng yuluo got off work at FiveO clock in the afternoon, she saw Zheng Jing waiting for her in the lobby when she came out of the elevator.
Dad, what are you doing here?
Im here to take you home.
Why? I have my own car!
Zheng Jing smiled.I dont trust you to drive by yourself. So I will drive you around for a while. When you are more familiar with it, you can drive by yourself.
Zheng yuluo could not help but frown.
This excuse was too perfunctory!
If he was really worried about her driving, what did she do when she first started driving?
Now that she had been driving to and from work for several days, he was actually concerned about her driving safety!
Youve been working for a long day. Im not a child anymore, so you dont have to pick me up. Go home. I still have something to do, so I wont be leaving with you.
The smile on Zheng Jings face soon disappeared. He said in a serious tone,Luoluo,e home with me! Before you get married, dont think about going to ces like bars again. There are no good people there. After you get off work, go home immediately and dont stay outside!
Oh, I understand. Youre not here to take me home. Youre here to capture me back into the cage. Are you afraid that Ill Fly Away after knowing the outside world?
Zheng yuluos face turned pale, and she felt extremely ufortable. However, she realized that she did not even have tears left.
It was probably because she was in too much despair!
In the past, she had felt that her father was unreasonable and sad, but now, all that was left was sorrow.
Luoluo, dont make it sound so bad. Im doing this for your own good. With your personality, youre not suited to associate with those messy people. Just listen to my arrangements and live a simple and peaceful life! Youre my daughter, why would I harm you?
Come home with me quickly. Youve never had dinner at home before, so your mother always felt that its a little lonely at night with just the three of us. She really hopes that you cane home for dinner.
Its best to call Deng kun as well. The meal will be more lively with more people. Youre going to be engaged soon, so you have to get closer to him. Dont always give him the cold shoulder. That way, your rtionship will be better and your marriage will be blissful.
Zheng Jing dragged Zheng yuluo into the car and took her home with a nk expression.
It was warm at home. Zheng Lun was busy in the kitchen with two servants. Zheng Yuwei and Deng kun helped from time to time. Everyone was talking andughing. When they saw Zheng Jing and Zheng yuluoing back, the atmosphere became more lively.
The house was filled with Zheng Jingsughter and Zheng Yuweis jesting.
Deng kun was taking care of Zheng yuluo with all his heart.
Everything looked especially beautiful, as if this was a happy family.
Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, felt that everything around her was an illusion!
She couldnt feel the slightest warmth. Under Deng kuns gentle mask was a ruthless heart!
His father, mother, and sister were all praising him. They were excitedly discussing how many children she and Deng kun would have in the future. They had even started to name their children.
Zheng yuluo drank the winter melon soup mechanically. This soup was Deng kuns favorite, but Zheng yuluo did not like it.
Today, she was in a daze and couldnt taste anything she ate. She even drank the winter melon soup directly.
There was no use in resisting. Her family always had ways to force her topromise, and she didnt even have the freedom to go out.
Zheng yuluo was expressionless. She nodded and said okay to whatever Zheng Jing and the others said.

After dinner, Deng kun went out for a walk with Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei, Zheng Jing watched TV with Zheng Lun in the living room, and the servant was washing the tableware in the kitchen.
Everything seemed to have returned to its original state.
It was as if nothing had happened. Everything was telling Zheng yuluo that her future would not change.
Zheng yuluo walked in front of her with empty eyes. Behind her, Deng kun reached out to touch Zheng Yuweis face and was stomped by her.
Deng kun bent down to cover his feet in pain, but Zheng Yuwei was not satisfied. She pinched his ear with a cold face and only let go when she saw that his face was pale from the pain. She quickly caught up with Zheng yuluo, hugged her arm, and talked to her.
Sister, you have to try on the dress tomorrow. You cant always drag it on!
Mom and I have picked out a few designs for you. They will definitely suit you. And the wedding dress, its so beautiful. Youll definitely be the most beautiful bride in it!
Big sister, can you hear me?
Zheng Yuwei saw that Zheng yuluo didnt have any reaction, so she shook her arm.Sister?
Zheng yuluo turned her head slowly and looked at her twin sister with dark eyes.Wei Wei, you were only born a few minutester than me. Why arent you getting married?
Sister, were different, Zheng Yuwei said, stunned.
Whats different? Were twins, almost identical!
No, no, no, sister, thats not what I meant. I mean, our personalities are different. You Youve done silly things before, so its better for you to get married and settle down as soon as possible!
Oh? You wont do stupid things after you get married, right? Then why were there so many people who got divorced? Why do people suffer from depression after marriage?
Zheng Yuwei was anxious,sister, those who get divorced are not happy, its the bad people they marry! Deng kun is a good person, maybe Hes just a bit of a yboy. After you get married, you have to discipline him. Be strict with him, and hell definitely be devoted to you!
As she spoke, she turned to look at Deng kun and questioned him coldly,Will you be good to my sister in the future?
Of course, I will be good to your sister for the rest of my life.
Deng kuns tone was very sincere. He said seriously, Im not a yboy. Everyone loves beauty. Its normal to take a few more nces at beautiful girls sometimes, but I will never have any thoughts about her. I cherish this rtionship.
His words were even better than his singing, and Zheng Yuwei naively believed him.
Although Deng kun had touched her, he had not actually done anything. He also said that she looked too simr to Zheng yuluo. He always felt that they were the same person, so it was normal to have a good impression of her.
Zheng Yuwei had been enduring Deng kuns harassment because she didnt want to ruin her sisters love.
She consoled herself every day that everything would be fine after her sister and brother-inw got married!
The person who had really been with Deng kun for a year was Zheng yuluo. She had actually stopped believing Deng kuns lies a long time ago.
She was only forced to maintain a superficial rtionship with him due to the pressure from her family.
Anyway, Deng kun would not touch her. It was no big deal to eat and take a walk together.
Wei Wei, now you dont believe me. Do you believe his words? If hes that good, would you be willing to marry him?
Zheng yuluos voice was very light and gentle, but it knocked heavily on Zheng Yuweis heart.
Of course, she was not willing!
She did not like Deng kun at all!
This was not her ideal other half. She could not even stand being with Deng kun for a day!
My dear little sister, youre not willing as well? You cant stand it either, right? But, your sister, I, have endured it for hundreds of days!
Zheng yuluo was not stupid. She could tell that her sister did not like Deng kun very much. Every time Zheng Yuwei looked at Deng kun, there was a warning in her eyes, a bit like how she looked at prisoners in the criminal Police team.
Zheng yuluo did not care about the shock in her sisters eyes. She turned her head and looked at Deng kun, still gently saying,Deng kun, I wont marry you. Just give up and donte to my house anymore. Besides, Ive fallen for someone else, and youve slept with someone else. We dont owe each other anything.
After she finished speaking, she turned around and left, not giving Deng kun a chance to speak again.
Zheng Yuwei frowned and looked at Deng kun,Did you really do something to let my sister down? Otherwise, why would she suddenly break up when you two were fine? You were with my sisters colleague?
I really didn t. Your sister has misunderstood. Wei Wei, you cant misunderstand me. Even if I had the intention, I wouldnt have the guts to do it! That woman cantpare to your sister. I must be blind to like her!
Although Deng kun said that, he recalled how Chen Yiqian had served him so well in the car this afternoon.| His body immediately reacted.
On the other hand, Zheng Yuwei, who was in front of him, had developed very well. Her figure was well-proportioned, and she had a rare healthy beauty. She was more than one level higher than a woman like Chen Yixuan.
She was only wearing a simple white T-shirt, but it still couldnt hide the fullness of her chest.
Deng kun had never been able to resist this kind of sexy little chili.
He stared at Zheng Yuweis chest, wishing that he could strip her naked and F * ck her right now.
It was a pity that little chili was too spicy. Deng kun did not dare to act rashly, lest he be beaten up by her.
Deng, where are you looking? Ill dig out your eyes if you keep looking! If you make my sister angry again, Ill break your legs!
Deng kun was left unwillingly after being scolded by Zheng Yuwei. The next afternoon, he did not vent his anger. Coincidentally, Chen Yixuan came to pester him again. He vented his anger on Chen Yixuan in the car for the entire afternoon.
At night, he went to the Zheng family to put on a show of being a good son-inw.
It was soon the end of the month. Zheng Jing would force Zheng yuluo to go home every day except for work.
She couldnt even meet Jing Zhi or contact him. She didnt know his name or how to contact him.
Besides, what was the point of meeting Jing Zhi?
Could she still let him marry her?
He hadnt even said if he liked her!
With the engagement imminent, Zheng yuluo was unbelievably obedient. Not only did she cooperate with them to try on the dress for the engagement banquet, but she also smiled and greeted Deng kuns parents when she saw them. She did not seem as cold to Deng kun as before.
Zheng Jing and the others thought that Zheng yuluos stubbornness had passed and she was ready to live a good life with Deng kun.
Only Deng kun himself felt a little uneasy.
Chapter 1341
Chapter 1341: Even a rabbit bites when its anxious
Trantor: 549690339
After being with Zheng yuluo for so long, Deng kun still had some understanding of her.
She looked gentle and seemed to be particrly easy to talk to, but in reality, once she had set her mind on something, even nine Bulls could not pull her back.
She was so determined to break up with him, so why did she change her attitude?
Deng kun wore a brand new ck suit with worry and uneasiness. He took his parents to the hotel that had been booked in advance, ready to get engaged with Zheng yuluo.
The engagement party was at 12 o clock in the afternoon. All the guests had already arrived, but Zheng yuluo waste.
She was wearing a big red custom-made dress that she had never worn before. She pushed open the banquet halls door with red high heels and began to speak with a loudspeaker.
Thank you, friends and family, for attending todays engagement party!
Zheng Jing and Zheng Lun were both stunned. What was Zheng yuluo doing?
There was no such thing mentioned before!
Today, she only needed to stand quietly beside Deng kun and be a shy bride-to-be.
The Deng kun family also looked at the Zheng family in confusion. They did not understand why Zheng yuluo suddenly spoke through the loudspeaker.
However, they all felt that Zheng yuluo was going to give an engagement speech or something, so they didnt say anything and just stared at Zheng yuluo quietly.
Zheng Yuwei stood behind Zheng yuluo and reminded her in a low voice,Sister, if you want to say something, you should say it after our parents have spoken!
Zheng yuluo turned around and gave her a gentle smile.No, Weiwei, itll be toote after theyve all spoken.
After she finished speaking, she turned around and faced the tables of rtives and friends of the two families. She said solemnly,Im Zheng yuluo, the one whos getting engaged today. I hereby announce that from today onwards, Ill officially break up with Mr. Deng kun! In the future, we wont have any more contact!
The megaphone spread Zheng yuluos gentle voice to every corner of the banquet hall, and the banquet hall fell into a dead silence in an instant.
Everyone looked at the bride-to-be in red with their mouths agape. They did not understand what was going on!
Zheng yuluo looked at everyones surprised look, looked at her parents and Deng kuns shocked and angry look, and suddenly felt the pleasure of revenge!
Look, theyre all scared silly!
Did they all think that she was that obedient?
Even a rabbit would bite when it was anxious. She was not a rabbit. If she was forced into a corner, she would not have any scruples!
Zheng yuluo was very satisfied with the effect she had created. Now, her family would no longer be able to force her to marry Deng kun, right?
She had always wanted to use the gentlest way to solve this problem, but no one had agreed. Since that was the case, then she would shed all pretenses of cordiality!
Zheng yuluos appearance had only been a minute, and she had already ruined the entire engagement party.
She turned around with a smile and walked out with the megaphone she had borrowed from Liu Xiaoying.
Zheng yuluo,e back here!
Zheng Jing was furious. He caught up with Zheng yuluo and was going to take her back.
Zheng yuluo stopped and said indifferently,Father, I cant go back. Im no longer the daughter who listens to everything you say. Im going to live my life the way I like.
Do you know what kind of asion this is? The words you said will make our family unable to lift their heads! You will be aughing stock! Youre too willful!
Zheng Jing was so angry that he wanted to p Zheng yuluo to wake her up.
However, this was his beloved daughter after all. He endured it again and again, and finally couldnt bear to hit her.
Go back immediately and apologize to all the guests! He wanted to apologize to Deng kun and his parents! Everyone here today is your family and friends. Do you want them tough at our family?
Zheng Jing didnt know why his daughter had be like this. Wasnt she always the most obedient girl?
Cant you just talk it out? Do you have to make this difficult situation?
Ive said it many times, I want to break up with Deng kun. Dad, dont you remember? Ill say it a hundred times, will anyone listen? You see, Im saying this in front of so many people, and youre starting to take it seriously.
Zheng yuluo looked calm, but in fact, she was trembling slightly.
It was the first time in her life that she had done such a thing, and it was to destroy her own familys reputation.
She was not good at doing this kind of thing, and she was not willing to stab her own family in the back. But if she did not stab them in the back, they would never realize that she was also a human being, a person with independent thoughts!
She struggled to free herself from Zheng Jings grip. She straightened her back and walked out of the hotel.
Behind her, the hotel was already in a mess.
By the time Deng kun came out, Zheng yuluo had already driven away and disappeared.
This time, it was really embarrassing!
Deng kun was so angry that the veins on his forehead bulged. If Zheng yuluo was next to him now, he would probably give her a p!
Zheng yuluo did not know about Deng kuns anger. Even if she did, she would only think that he deserved it.
It was a Saturday, so she didnt have to work. Zheng yuluo drove around in a daze.
Before she knew it, she had arrived at the Waiting bar.
The bar was closed during the day, and the door was closed.
Zheng yuluo got off the car and tried to open the window that she had pried open.
She had thought that this window was a loophole in the bars security system, and that the boss, Jing Zhi, would make up for it and seal the window tightly.
She didnt expect that she would be able to pull it open with just a light pull.
The window wasnt even closed!
It was quite inconvenient to climb through the window in a cheongsam, and Zheng yuluo did not care about the engagement dress at all. She tore the dress from the two sides of the cheongsam all the way to her thigh.
This way, it was easier to walk.
Zheng yuluo entered the bar, found a bottle of wine, and sat on the sofa to drink.
The weather in early autumn was already a little cold. The bright sun shone through the open window and shone on Zheng yuluo, warming her up gradually.
Her alcohol tolerance wasnt very good, and she was soon slightly drunk.
However, she was in a good mood. Shey on the sofa and hummed a song,pletely ignoring the phone that kept ringing.
It turned out that it felt so good to be a rebellious girl who didnt listen to her parents!
Zheng yuluo had not slept wellst night because she had been too worried about todays matter. Now that she was lying on the sofa, she fell asleep very quickly.
Therefore, she did not notice that a tall figure had also climbed in through the window. He leaned against the window and watched her sleep with a gentle expression.
Zheng yuluo had a good nights sleep. She miraculously didnt dream of any messy scenes again.
She opened her eyes and a handsome face appeared in front of her.
Youre awake?
His voice was low and pleasant to the ears, with an indescribable charm.
Chapter 1342
Chapter 1342: Im waiting there to snatch the wedding
Trantor: 549690339
Then, a kissnded on Zheng yuluos forehead. She was a little confused.
Was she dreaming?
Otherwise, how could she have woken up in his arms?
She had clearly Oh, right, she had fallen asleep in his bar!
Whats wrong? dont you recognize me?
Jing Zhis fingers slid across Zheng yuluos smooth face, while his other hand held her waist, trying to make her lie asfortably as possible.
Zheng yuluos head was resting on one of his thighs. It had been a long time since they had been so intimate.
Jing Zhi felt satisfied just watching her sleep.
Zheng yuluo felt very happy to be able to wake up in Jing Zhis arms.
She had thought that she had been abandoned by the whole world today!
When did you arrive? Why didnt you wake me up?
Zheng yuluo hugged Jing Zhis waist, her eyes watery, and her voice revealed a coquettish tone that she herself didnt notice.
She had just woken up, and her voice was gentle andzy, which made Jing Zhis heart skip a beat.
She was always able to touch his heartstrings unintentionally.
Jing Zhi gently pinched Zheng yuluos chin and said in a pampering tone,I wanted to let you sleep a little longer. I was afraid of waking you up, so when I carried you, I was especially gentle.
As he spoke, he could not help but lower his head and suck on Zheng yuluos lips.Youre very beautiful today. You look good in red. Also, the way you tore the cheongsam was a little sexy. Im so amazed!
So he had arrived long ago!
Had he been watching her all this time?
Zheng yuluos heart was about to melt in happiness!
Heplimented her beauty! He said that she was stunning!
Thats great!
She bit her lips, which had been kissed by Jing Zhi, and wrapped her arms around his neck. She smiled sweetly.You like me?
I thought it was already very obvious, but you didnt see it?
Jing Zhis eyes were full of smiles. He pressed Zheng yuluo down on the sofa, his forehead against hers, and said softly,I like it, I like it very much. You touch my heart, its always beating for you.
He took Zheng yuluos hand and ced it on his chest. He asked her in a low voice,Do you feel it?
His heart was beating so fast that Zheng yuluo was reluctant to move her hand away.
How could that be possible?
He actually liked her too!
Zheng yuluo felt that happiness hade too quickly. She could not believe it.
She had originally thought that he would at most have a good impression of her.
If you like me, what about your ex-girlfriend? You dont like her anymore?
Jing Zhiughed when he heard her tone.
He hugged Zheng yuluo andughed so hard that his chest was shaking. This made Zheng yuluo angry from embarrassment. She pouted and said,What are youughing at? Cant I be jealous? I cant stand you thinking about someone else while you like me!
I like you. I dont think my ex-girlfriend would mind. Also, I only like you, and I dont think of anyone else. If you dont believe me, you can take your time to read it.
This was the first time Jing Zhi had ever seen someone get jealous of themselves.
How fresh!
This joke was enough to make himugh for a year.
Zheng Yu Luo didnt understand what was so funny. Thest time she was jealous, Jing Zhi alsoughed.
Was it because he thought she was too childish?
Whatever, she was happy that Jing Zhi said he liked her.
Seeing that Jing Zhi was stillughing, Zheng yuluo leaned on his shoulder and bit him hard through his coffee-colored shirt.Dontugh at me!
Yes, Okay, okay, I wontugh at you.
Jing Zhi said he wouldntugh at her, but he couldnt help it. His lips and eyes were full ofughter.
You still dare tough! Then tell me, whos prettier, me or your ex-girlfriend?
Zheng yuluo still remembered that Jing Zhi had said that his ex-girlfriend was prettier than her.
This time, Jing Zhi said without hesitation,Youre beautiful!
Either way, it was Zheng yuluo. Of course, he had to praise her for being beautiful now.
Eh? Did he use his brain to answer so quickly? Think about it again, who is the prettiest? Why do I remember someone praising his ex-girlfriend to the heavens?
Jing Zhi felt helpless.
This was all thanks to his ex-girlfriend being Zheng yuluo, or else he would have been under a lot of pressure!
He sat up with Zheng yuluo in his arms and let her sit on him. He smiled and said,Youre the most beautiful! However, isnt it a little bad for you to be so jealous? Youre the one whos getting engaged today, but Im not even jealous. Ive never been engaged to my ex-girlfriend.
Zheng yuluo looked down at her red dress, and her little face fell.Oh, I wont be jealous anymore. I didnt get engaged. My parents forced me to get engaged. After I went, I announced that I had broken up with my boyfriend. I dont even dare to go home now. If I go home, my dad will probably break my legs.
Jing Zhi pulled Zheng yuluo into his arms and said softly,Yes, I know. I was actually at the scene today.
Zheng yuluo raised her head in surprise.Youre here?!
Why didnt she see him?
Aiya, she was too nervous and in a hurry today. She didnt take a closer look at who was sitting in the banquet hall and turned to leave after saying that she wanted to break up.
It was good that he was here. This way, he could also know that she did not have any feelings for Deng kun and believed that she only liked him.
But Why are you here? Are you a rtive of the Deng family?
Zheng yuluo basically knew all the rtives and friends of the Zheng family. Jing Zhi was attending the engagement party, so he was basically a rtive of the Deng family, right?
What does this have to do with the Deng family? Their familys genes arent good, so Im not rted to them!
Zheng yuluo and Deng kun had been in a rtionship for a year. Jing Zhi felt ufortable just hearing Deng kuns name, let alone being rted to him.
Then how did you know that I was getting engaged today? And you even know the exact address?
Im omnipotent. Ill always be able to know what I want to know.
Zheng yuluo didnt ask why Jing Zhi was at the engagement party. She thought that Jing Zhi might have been watching her and went there himself.
She pouted, her eyes a little dangerous.Oh, then youll just wait there to see me get engaged to someone else?
No, Im waiting there to snatch the wedding. Its a pity that youve already destroyed the stage before I even got to go on stage. I didnt even have the chance to perform.
Jing Zhis tone was a little teasing, but his eyes were serious.
He had no intention of coaxing Zheng yuluo. He really wanted to take Zheng yuluo away at noon.
No one else could understand the pain of seeing her holding hands with someone else for the rest of her life!
He had thought it through and confessed everything to Zheng yuluo. He was also prepared to suffer the Zheng familys wrath.
However, Zheng yuluo had given him a huge surprise!
He had never known that his little woman could be so domineering and decisive.
Everyone was waiting for her, but the moment she came in, she said through a loudspeaker,I want to break up with Deng kun!
Chapter 1343
Chapter 1343: Uninvited guest
Trantor: 549690339
Not only the Zheng family and the Deng family were stunned, but Jing Zhi himself was also stunned.
All the lines he had prepared were not used. Zheng yuluo turned and left in a suave and handsome manner.
Perhaps she didnt even know it herself, but at that moment, she was really charming!
Zheng yuluos eyes lit up when she heard Jing Zhis words. She said excitedly,Really? Are you really going to take me away?
This was actually what she especially desired.
She yearned for someone to save her from her rigid life, so that she would not have to marry Deng kun and be an obedient girl like a puppet.
Its true.
Jing Zhi sounded worried.I just dont know if youll leave with me if I were to interrupt the wedding. Will you stay there and get engaged to Deng kun for fear of making your parents sad?
This had happened before.
Before Zheng yuluo had lost her memory, she had ced great importance on family ties. She would rather suffer for herself than make her parents unhappy.
Between him and her parents, she had chosen her parents several times.
That was why Jing Zhi didnt dare to take Zheng yuluo away. He was afraid that she would me him in the future. He was afraid that she would hate him and not love him anymore.
Zheng yuluo hugged Jing Zhi and pressed her face against his chest. Her eyes were a little wet.I was afraid that they would be sad, afraid that I would hurt their face, afraid that I would embarrass them. However, Ive been forced into a corner by them. I dont want to marry someone I dont like at the age of 22 and live the boring life theyve arranged for me.
Jing Zhi patted Zheng yuluos back gently and coaxed her,Alright, dont be sad. They will understand you in the future. Im very happy that youre not engaged to Deng kun. Yu Luo, what kind of life do you want to live? Will you regret your decision today?
I dont know what kind of life I like, but I know that I dont like to be controlled and arranged by others.
Zheng yuluo looked up into Jing Zhis eyes and said gently,I wont regret it. Ill only regret it if we get engaged.
As she spoke, she suddenly had an idea.
My father is always urging me to get married. Hes always afraid that Ill remember the past. A few days ago, when I went to the hospital to see my foot injury, he even wanted to marry me to mu Sen. If I tell him that I have a new boyfriend and will marry you in the future, wont all my problems be solved perfectly? He might not be so angry about what happened today!
Zheng yuluo was so happy that she almost cried!
Why didnt she think of this? Wasnt the person in front of him the most suitable candidate?
If she had to get married, she would choose someone she liked!
Jing Zhi was defeated by Zheng yuluos ignorance and naivety. Heughed out loud and ruffled her hair.If your father knows that youve chosen me, hell probably be especially Happy!
Well, he was so happy that he wanted to hit someone.
The sun had set and the sky was dark. The Waiting bar was open for business.
More and more people arrived. When Jin Xin arrived and saw the man and woman hugging in the corner, he smiled.
It seemed that sometimes, memory loss could not stop one from falling in love with another. Zheng yuluo would probably never like anyone else in her life.
It was the same for Jing Zhi. He had been poisoned by Zheng yuluo, and there was no cure for it.
Mu Sen also came to the bar at around nineo clock. He looked around and saw Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo snuggling together sweetly. He had a deep understanding of Zheng yuluos behavior of dumping Deng kun in front of everyone today.
Mu Sen did not go to Zheng yuluos engagement party, but Mu Qing did. He had already heard the whole story from Mu Qing.
He had guessed that Zheng yuluo would be here today.
Mu Sen did not disturb the unfortunate couple. He asked for wine and began to chat with Jin Xin.
How has Jing Zhi been these days? Did he eat more? Have you quit smoking and drinking?
His rtionship is going well, and hes no longer against eating!
Jin Xin was especially happy at the mention of this.
You dont say, love can really be eaten! He doesnt smoke as much anymore, but he still drinks a lot. I think hell have to change this habit slowly. Now, whenever he doesnt drink, hell feel ufortable all over!
That wont do. He has to quit as soon as possible. Alcohol is very harmful to his body! I asked him to go to the hospital for a check up, but he hasnt gone yet. It seems that I still have to let Zheng yuluo do it.
Mu Sen and Jin Xin chatted as they drank. The two of them had simr tempers. Although they were many years apart, they had long be Good Brothers who talked about everything.
They both knew everything about Jing Zhi and the secret of his blood, so they became closer to each other.
As they chatted, Jin Xin suddenly stopped talking, his eyes fixed on a young man who had just walked in.
Mu Sen followed his gaze and asked in confusion,Whats wrong? You know this person?
Of course! Jin Xin replied with a mysterious smile. Theres going to be a good show tonight, youvee to the right ce! Quick, get two bottles of wine and a stack of peanuts. Lets go to the nearby sofa and sit down to watch the show!
Mu Sen followed him to change seats in confusion. Then, he saw the man who had just entered walk to the corner where Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi were with an angry face.
He suddenly had an idea and pped his thigh.Deng kun!
Yo, you recognized him so quickly! Your IQ is not low, mu Sen!
Thats right! My intelligence is directly proportional to my looks!
Because there was a good show to watch, mu Sen was a little active and praised himself without shame.
The two of them drank as they watched the show! Those who didnt know might have thought that they had a grudge against Jing Zhi.
On Jing Zhis side, the sweet and happy atmosphere between him and Zheng yuluo was ruined by Deng kun. His face became a little cold.
When Zheng yuluo saw Deng kun, her expression did not look good either. She said lightly,Mr. Deng, whats the matter?
Today is our engagement day, but you threw everything away and left. Do you think Im okay?
Deng kun had been embarrassed in front of so many rtives and friends of the Deng family today, and he had been angry for the entire afternoon and night.
If Zheng Jing was not the director, he would have beaten Zheng yuluo up.
He could no longer maintain his gentle and refined facade. His expression was ferocious and his eyes were fierce.
Jing Zhi stood up slowly and stood in front of Zheng yuluo. He said,Yuluo, leave this to me. Continue eating your pine nuts. Ill peel them for you after youre done.
Jing Zhis indifferent attitude had seriously hurt Deng kuns self-esteem.
She didnt even care about him, her real boyfriend!
Deng kun could no longer suppress his anger and scolded,Get the F * ck out of my way! Im talking to my woman, what are you interrupting for! What the hell, snatching my leftover woman, no wonder you look so poor!
Chapter 1344
Chapter 1344: The change in Jing Zhi
Trantor: 549690339
Upon hearing Deng kuns words, Jin Xin and mu Sen, who were watching the show not far away, rolled their eyes. They had seen idiots before, but they had never seen such aplete idiot!
Whose woman was this? Deng kun was probably the only one who was kept in the dark.
She would probably have to leave the bar lying down tonight if she dared to say that about Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi.
He hoped that Jing Zhi would go easy on him and not kill him. Otherwise, no matter how capable mu Sen was, he would not be able to get him back from Yan Luo Dian.
It wouldnt be worth it for Jing Zhi to be charged with murder.
At this moment, Jing Zhis eyes became extremely cold. Deng kun would have been dead if he hadnt learned to restrain himself over the past year.
He had always killed people without any psychological burden.
However, he could not do that in front of Zheng yuluo, for fear of scaring the timid her.
Anyone who dares to talk to me like that has already be a ghost, Jing Zhi said coldly. If you dont want to die, get out of my bar immediately! Zheng yuluo is my woman, and she has always been. If you dare to think about her again, dont me me for not reminding you.
He had already found Deng kun unpleasant to the eye, and when he heard him insult Zheng yuluo, he even had the intention to tear Deng kun apart.
Deng kun saw that Jing Zhi was even more arrogant than he was and said in exasperation, Youre the owner of this bar? Bah! You think youre so great just because you opened a bar? Im telling you, I have a strong backing! Zheng yuluos entire family only recognizes me as their son-inw. You seduced Zheng yuluo, so youll be in prison for the rest of your life!
Deng kun had been in bars for many years. He actually knew that those who could open a bar basically had people in both the underworld and the underworld.
But in the whole of A city, in Deng kuns eyes, Zheng Jing was the director of the Public Security Bureau. He was a high ranking official and everyone was afraid of him and had to listen to him.
The owner of the bar would definitely not dare to go against the police.
Even if he and Jing Zhi were to start a fight, Zheng Jing would definitely side with him.
Therefore, Deng kun wasnt afraid of Jing Zhi at all. He stepped forward and reached out to pull Zheng yuluo away.
Before Zheng yuluo could react, Jing Zhi had already kicked Deng kun out.
Deng kun screamed and fell far away. He vomited blood andy on the ground for a long time without getting up.
When the people in the bar saw this desperate fight, most of them screamed and ran away in a hurry. Some people didnt even pay, which made a few waiters chase after them in a hurry.
Zheng yuluo, who was sitting on the sofa, was also shocked by this scene!
She had never expected Jing Zhi to be so cruel.
She was a little scared, but she felt that this scene was very familiar, as if she had seen it before!
What was going on?
Where had he seen it before?
Who was the one who kicked him so far away that he vomited blood?
The impression in her mind was particrly vague. Zheng yuluo tried to think carefully, but her head hurt as if it was being pricked by needles.
In the past year or so, whenever Zheng yuluo tried to recall some blurry images, the result would be the same as now, her brain upied by severe pain.
She didnt dare to think about it anymore, for fear that she would faint from the pain in this situation.
She stood up and hugged Jing Zhis arm. She begged him, her body trembling.Stop hitting him, hes already vomiting blood! Ive broken up with him, dont be angry!
This scene reminded Jing Zhi of the time he had kicked Lou Ziyi.
Back then, Zheng yuluo had also been afraid and had begged him.
At that time, he was still young and impulsive, so not only did he hurt Lou Ziyi, but he also broke Zheng yuluos arm.
Now, he would never hurt her again.
Jing Zhi held Zheng yuluos trembling hand and said softly,Yuluo, dont be afraid. Hell be fine. He wont die. Hell just be slightly injured. Im afraid hell keep pestering you, so Im going to teach him a lesson and make him suffer a little so that hell remember.
But But you were So scary! Will you be this fierce to me in the future? Will you hit me?
I won t, I won t!
Jing Zhi was a little angry. It was all Deng kuns fault for forcing him to reveal his true nature and scaring Zheng yuluo.
Yuluo, I wont touch a single strand of your hair in the future, and I wont be fierce to you. How can you be the same as Deng kun? Alright, alright, I wont hit him!
Zheng yuluo nodded and asked,Can you get someone to send him to the hospital? He seems to be seriously injured. Although I cant be with him, I dont have to take his life!
At the end of the day, Zheng yuluo still felt that Deng kun had not done anything harmful. He had taken care of her carefully and thoughtfully for a year. She could not bear to see Deng kun lying on the ground and vomiting blood.
If it had been Jing Zhi a few years ago, he would have been furious when he heard Zheng yuluo begging for another man. He wouldnt stop until he beat her up.
But now, he had matured and be rational.
He also loved Zheng yuluo even more.
She wanted to marry someone else, but he could bear all the pain alone. He only hoped that she would be happy. Now, he was only pleading for Deng kun, so there was nothing for him to be jealous about.
Old Jin!
Jing Zhi nced at Jin Xin, who was watching the show from a distance, and shouted,Call the ambnce and take him to the hospital!
Send him to the hospital? Jin Xin was a little surprised.
This wasnt Jing Zhis style.
Hed been through hell with Jing Zhi in North America for a long time, and he knew how violent Jing Zhi was and how much he didnt care about human lives.
Today, Deng kun, who had stolen his woman, pointed at his nose and scolded him. He actually let Deng kun off so easily!
Mu Sen suddenlyughed and patted Jin Xins shoulder. He said in a low voice,Even a hero cant stand the beauty! Just send him to my familys Hospital, I can make him recover slower!
How could I have forgotten about you? Jin Xin grinned. Good brother!
He didnt call an ambnce. Instead, he ordered two waiters in the store to take Deng kun out.
Deng kun wanted to scold Jing Zhi and get up to fight with Jing Zhi, but when the waiter pulled him up from the ground, he was in so much pain that he felt like his body was broken.
He only cared about screaming and had no time to curse.
The bar couldnt be opened for business tonight after Deng kuns argument. Jing Zhi didnt care about the profit. He didntck money, so he asked Jin Xin to close the door and the waiters and bartenders to get off work early.
Zheng yuluo was still a little flustered and worried. She was afraid that something would happen to Deng kun.
Mu Sen, please help me take care of that person. Your hospital is the best. He will be fine, right?
Out of professional habit, mu Sen had already checked Deng kuns body. He knew what was going on. He looked at Jing Zhi, who didnt look good, and said with a smile,
Youre a girl, thats why youre so easily scared. Dont boys always fight when theyre young? Its just a small injury, Ill be able to jump around again after a few days of rest!
Chapter 1345
Chapter 1345: Dont scare her, shes timid
Trantor: 549690339
Good, then Im relieved!
Zheng yuluo finally heaved a sigh of relief.
She was really afraid that Deng kun would be dead or disabled. There was no way she could exin this to father and mother Deng.
The couple treated her very well and never owed her anything. Deng kun was the only child in their family, and Zheng yuluo didnt want to make the two elders sad.
Jing Zhi stood beside Zheng yuluo in silence.
Even though he knew that Zheng yuluo didnt like Deng kun, Jing Zhi still felt bad when he saw how concerned she was about Deng kun and his health.
Shouldnt he have hit Deng kun?
However, if he did not make a move, Deng kun would go to pull Zheng yuluo and take her away.
Was there any use in dissuading him?
How could he not use force to deal with people like Deng kun? Even if he did not do anything, Deng kun would.
However, the consequences of using force were equally depressing.
The beautiful and sweet moment he had with Zheng yuluo today had all disappeared at this moment.
He had waited for her for so long, and finally, she was willing to break up with Deng kun ande to him, but why did he always feel that he could not keep her?
He had no grudges with Deng kun, and he didnt even know Deng kun. Why did he hit Deng kun?
It was because Deng kun had insulted Zheng yuluo!
It wasnt like he hadnt hit people in front of her before. That time, when someone tried to stop her and did something to her, he had hit them harder than he did today.
She didnt have such a big reaction.
Seeing Zheng yuluo leave in a hurry with mu Sen to see Deng kun in the hospital, Jing Zhis enthusiasm cooled down little by little.
Old Jin, you should go to the hospital too. Dont let anything happen to Deng kun. Let mu Sen treat his injuries. Otherwise, yuluo will be sad.
Jin Xins eyes widened as he said,Im not going to see him! That kid is not a good person, he deserves to die! You look like youve lost your soul, can I leave? I want to follow you!
Jing Zhi sat down on the sofa slowly. Someone had half a bottle of wine left on the table, so he picked it up and finished it in one go.
My dear ancestor, can you stop drinking? Mu Sen had said that with your bodys condition, you cant drink anymore! Look at you now, how thin have you be? Do you believe that your brother will beat me to death if he sees you like this?
Jin Xins voice had barely faded when another cold voice suddenly rang out,What does he look like?
Jin Xin immediately turned his head. When he saw who it was, his eyes lit up as if he had seen his Savior.His brother, quickly take care of your younger brother. No one listens to me, his manager!
Jing Rui was dressed in a suit. He stood tall and straight, and his face was cold.
He strode to Jing Zhis side in his new and shiny leather shoes, stepping on the messy floor.
Jing Zhi held the bottle of wine in his arms, looked up, and called out to him softly,Brother.
You still know that Im your brother? Stop drinking!
Jing Ruis voice was cold. He took the bottle out of Jing Zhis hands and put it on the table.
You should be happy that Zheng yuluo and Deng kuns engagement is not going to happen. Why are you still drinking?
Jing Rui had not seen Jing Zhi for a long time, and he was no longer angry with him. He no longer objected to Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo.
As long as Jing Zhi was happy and liked Zheng yuluo, then so be it!
But looking at him now, Jing Rui still felt that it was a mistake for him to like Zheng yuluo.
Jing Zhi respected his brother the most. He stood up and tried to speak as calmly as he could. Its fine, Im just drinking some wine. Do you want some? I have all kinds of wine here.
He did not expect Jing Rui toe to his bar. Thest time they met was half a year ago.
Jing Rui despised him for drinking too much and eating too little. He even asked Shuyin to make him some nutritious protein powder and had someone send it to him every month. He also asked Jin Xin to watch him drink a cup every day.
Jing Rui must have found out about Zheng yuluos engagement, so he came to him.
Jing Zhi picked out two bottles of good wine and handed them to Jing Rui.Take it back and drink it with my sister-inw. Its good for your beauty.
Jing Rui took the wine and put it on the table. He frowned.Mu Sen told me that theres something wrong with your body, so youre not allowed to drink anymore. Go to the hospital for a month to recuperate. If youre well, you can be discharged. If not, you can stay here!
Brother, I dont like hospitals. You know that.
Alright, you stay at home. Ill get mu Sen to go to your house to treat you!
Im not sick,
If you dont listen to me, I will chop Zheng yuluo up and feed her to the dogs! Jing Rui said coldly.
Jing Zhi finally panicked.Brother, you can criticize me. Why did you drag Zheng yuluo into this? he asked. She was so wronged! Shes a coward, so dont scare her!
Shes not wronged at all!
Jing Rui was not in a good mood at the mention of Zheng yuluo.
Some hatred could never be forgotten!
He had hated Zheng yuluo for a long time!
It was Zheng yuluos fault that Jing Zhi had suffered so much at the Virus Research Institute and was sent to the killer organization. Those lunatics had forced him to kill people and turned him into a brutal executioner!
Jing Zhi had been so kind and adorable when he was little.
At that time, he was always afraid that his blood would harm others, so he always wrapped himself up tightly. He would even wear special rubber gloves and y with the dog.
Although he was mischievous, he had always been a good child and had never been stained with a drop of blood.
A person had to go through hell-like suffering to turn from an innocent child into a murderous demon!
Jing Zhi had gone through so much suffering and torture, but he had not been defeated. He had been living bravely, but in the end, he had fallen into Zheng yuluos hands!
How could he still be as glorious as before?
His hair was half ck and half white, his body was thin, and his eye sockets were sunken. He was almost a ghost!
Even if Zheng yuluo didnt feel heartache, as her brother, his heart ached to death!
Jing Rui really wanted to chop Zheng yuluo up and feed her to the dogs!
If you dont want anything to happen to Zheng yuluo, then cooperate with mu Sens treatment. Ill get Shuyin to draw your blood and do a detailed test tomorrow morning at nineo clock. If I dont see you at the hospital, dont even think about seeing Zheng yuluo again.
Don t, brother! Dont touch her, Ill go to the hospital!
Jing Zhi knew that his brother disliked Zheng yuluo very much, and he was a little afraid that Jing Rui would really do something to her.
Jing Rui knew what he was thinking just by looking at his face. He wanted to scold Jing Zhi for being useless, but he could not bear to.
Jing Zhi had lost a lot of weight. It was heartbreaking to see him like this. If second uncle, who was in North America, knew about this, he would probably fly back to the Zheng family and destroy them.
Jing Rui hummed in acknowledgment and left the bar.
He didnt want to get involved in Jing Zhis business, but now that it had seriously affected Jing Zhis health and even his life, Jing Rui had to do something.
Chapter 1346
Chapter 1346: Virus mutation
Trantor: 549690339
The next day, Jing Zhi went to the hospital obediently. When he saw that Shuyin was fully armed and ready to draw his blood, he suddenly felt like he had returned to the Research Institute.
Once, Shuyin was dressed in white and wrapped herself up tightly. Even her eyes were covered by an eye mask. She pulled his arm expressionlessly and started to draw his blood.
Maybe it was because his state of mind had changed, but for the first time, Jing Zhi didnt have a strong rejection towards blood extraction. He just didnt like the feeling of blood being drawn out of his body.
Cant you smoke less?
Shuyin didnt even raise her head and said indifferently,No,
I didnt need to draw so many in the past!
You were not as ill as you are now!
Jing Zhi still didnt believe that there was something wrong with his body. He said unhappily,Why are you all talking as if Im dying? my body is especially good. I can easily take on ten people by myself!
If Im not wrong, you used to have an easy time fighting 1000 people. Now that youve dropped to 10, you still have the cheek to say that you re especially good ?
Shuyin was the person who knew Jing Zhis physical condition the best. She was extremely shocked when she saw Jing Zhi today.
ording to his gic superiority, the probability of him having white hair at such a young age was almost non-existent!
Unless the virus in his body had undergone some kind of mutation, which caused many of his cells to rapidly fail.
Shuyin took a portion of the blood sample and observed it under a high power microscope.
A more detailed test would take a lot of time to analyze the data.
If Im not wrong, part of the virus in your body has mutated.
Jing Zhis head throbbed,mutated? What do you mean by that?
It means that in the past year, your body did not have enough nutrients to supply the virus. They were afraid that you would starve them to death, so they devoured arge number of your normal cells and actively evolved.
It evolved? So its a good thing?
No, the evolution of a species may not be a good thing. It may also be self-destruction.ĸߴͣҲһû?
Jing Zhi was about to go crazy.Sister-inw, were family. Can you stop talking like that? he asked. Give me a quick death, am I alright or not?
Shuyin put on rubber gloves and took off Jing Zhis hat. She touched his hair and looked at him carefully for a while.When did you start to have white hair?
Jing Zhi didnt remember that. He only thought that she had grown a lot of white hair overnight.
It should have been a long time. Does it matter?
I want to know the exact time when your body will develop the disease, then I can prescribe the medicine.
So youre saying that I can still be saved?
Jing Zhis tone was rxed. He thought he was fine, just that his hair had turned white and he had lost some weight.
Shuyin knew that he didnt take it to heart, so she could only shake her head helplessly.Its not a problem to live for a few years. Your body is too special. Im afraid I cant do it alone. I need to ask the original people in the Research Institute for help. Many of them are better than me and have been researching your virus for many years. There must be a way.
Live for a few years?
Little Shenshu, dont scare me. The people in the Research Institute used to say that Im a miracle of human life and that I can break the record of human longevity without any suspense!
While he was speaking, Shuyin pulled two strands of hair from his head and smiled faintly.Yes, I used to envy you for being able to live like an old fairy. Now, the miracle has been destroyed by you. I guess youll soon have a head full of white hair and be an old man!
Why are you pulling my hair? Jing Zhi asked, holding his head.
Lets see why your hair has turned white and how long it will take before it turnspletely white.
Shuyin put the hair into the specimen bag, blinked, and said,Do you think Zheng yuluo will still like you if you be an old man? If the two of you are together, will people think that you are the grandfather and she is the granddaughter?
Her words hit the most vulnerable spot in Jing Zhis heart. He couldnt ept that he had aged so much, while Zheng yuluo was still young and beautiful!
Quickly prescribe me medicine! Quickly treat me!
Jing Zhi touched his hair and finally started to panic.Sister-inw, will I really grow old? You cant really live for a few years, can you?
The results are not out yet. Ill tell you when its out, in case you dont believe me.
Jing Zhi put on his hat and walked out of Shuyinsboratory. He was still in a daze when he saw Jing Rui waiting outside.
Brother, am I really that sick?
Yes, hes seriously ill.
Anyone with a normal brain would not have fallen in love with Zheng yuluo.
Jing Rui said as he turned around and walked ahead.
Jing Zhi did not know whether his brother was telling the truth, so he followed Jing Rui.
In the clean corridor of family MUs Hospital, the two brothers, with the same tall and straight posture, the same pace, and the same cold temperament, were quite eye-catching.
Zheng Jing ran into the two brothers as soon as he entered the hospital with his wife and younger daughter.
Zheng Jing and the other two were startled at the same time. They looked around subconsciously to see if Zheng yuluo was there. They were relieved when they saw that she was not there.
Jing Rui sneered, and Jing Zhis face was frighteningly cold.
The two brothers walked past the family without even looking at them, as if they had never known them.
More than a year ago, after Zheng yuluo had lost her memory, Zheng Jing had deliberately distanced himself from family Jing in order to prevent her from thinking about Jing Zhi. He had never let Zheng yuluo get in touch with family Jing, nor had she ever been in contact with Shuyin.
Avoiding them was like avoiding the gue. How could Jing Rui be happy?
He didnt me the Zheng family for teaching Zheng yuluo the wrong way and causing Jing Zhi to be taken away.
It wasnt the Zheng familys turn to despise Jing Zhi.
Zheng Jing knew that the brothers were not happy with the Zheng family, so he walked past Jing Rui and Jing Zhi without saying anything.
Because of what had happened between Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo, his rtionship with Jing Yichen was not as good as it used to be.
Zheng Jing went to Deng kuns ward with his family.
In addition to Deng kuns parents, Zheng yuluo, whose eyes were red, was also in the ward.
Zheng yuluo had not returnedst night and had been looking after Deng kun in the hospital. Zheng Jing hade byst night. He had wanted to take his daughter home, but she had insisted on staying, so he had given up.
Deng kun was seriously injured. In order to show his concern, he brought his family to see him early in the morning.
Knowing that Zheng Jing was here, Mu Qing brought mu Sen to the ward and told him about Deng kuns injury.
Theyre not fatal injuries. Theres slight bleeding in his internal organs. Hes so young, hell be fine after a few days of rest!
Chapter 1347
Chapter 1347: A familiar friend
Trantor: 549690339
Deng kun immediately cried out in pain,but doctor, Im in so much pain all over my body. I even vomited blood yesterday. Why dont you give me another examination?
Mu Qing ignored him and said to Zheng Jing,You can go through the discharge procedures now. He doesnt need to be hospitalized in his condition.
Jing Zhi had indeed held back when he hit her yesterday.
Deng kun didnt even have any signs of a fracture, which was unprecedented in the history of Jing Zhis beating.
In the past, he had even broken Zheng yuluos arm when he was angry!
Mu Sen said that Jing Zhi had hit Deng kun, but Mu Qing didnt believe him. He thought that Jing Zhi had hit Deng kun too lightly.
Mu Qing hade here for Zheng Jings sake.
He was now the director of a well-respected hospital in A city. It was not easy for others to invite him. Many things were handled by his subordinates. After mu Sen returned to the country, he also helped to take care of the daily affairs of the hospital.
In terms of closeness, Mu Qing was, of course, closer to family Jing.
Not only because he was Jing Yichens best friend, but also because his wife was Jing Yichens sister, so he had to call Jing Yichen brother.
Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were both Mu Qings nephews. They called him uncle when they saw him.
Although Mu Qing wasnt close to Jing Zhi, he was even less so to Deng kun.
What was Deng kun?
He was nothing.
Mu Qing left the ward with his son soon. He didnt care whether Deng kun was discharged or not.
Its fine if you like to stay, just pay!
Family MUs Hospital was A well-known Noble Hospital in a city and even the whole country. The environment was very good, but it was also very expensive!
The atmosphere in the ward became a little awkward after Mu Qing left.
After all, Zheng yuluo had just made a scene at the engagement banquet yesterday. She had resolutely said that she wanted to break up with Deng kun, making the Deng family feel embarrassed. At this time, the Deng familys anger had not subsided!
Zheng Jing was not the kind of person who would bow down to others easily. Although he was also angry that his daughter wanted to break up with him, he still had to defend her.
Everyone knew the reason and process of Deng kuns beating. Father Deng, Deng haichuans face was frosty as he felt that his son had been seriously humiliated!
Zheng Jing, our two families have discussed the engagement a long time ago. If your daughter has a new lover, she could have told us earlier. Our kun will find a wife and will not pester Zheng yuluo! Youre hitting peoples faces and faces. Do you think thatmoners like us are easy to bully?
In Zheng Jings eyes, he was indeed in the wrong.
It was already very unpleasant to break off the engagement, and now Deng kun was beaten up. Even if the marriage failed, they couldnt make enemies!
Luoluo has always been obedient. She has been deceived, or else she wouldnt have done such a thing. Shes still young and didnt want to get married. I forced her to get married. Im responsible for this, but Deng kun is also in the wrong. My daughter is just an ordinary friend with other men, but Deng kun is with my daughters colleague. I cant me my daughter for being angry.
Zheng Jings words were neither soft nor hard, but there was a tinge of sarcasm in them. With the momentum of being in a high position for a long time, he immediately turned the situation around.
If he blindlypromised and admitted his mistake, the Deng family would take advantage of him and think that Zheng yuluo owed Deng kun a lot. They would demand an exorbitant price.
Zheng yuluo and that man are not ordinary friends at all! The two of them had been together for a long time, but I was kept in the dark! Uncle Zheng, you have to speak with a conscience. You know how I treat Zheng yuluo. No other man in this world will treat her as well as I do!
Deng kun was extremely angry, but his face was still full of affection. This made Zheng Jing feel that it was Zheng yuluos loss that she could not marry Deng kun.
However, he could only think about it in his heart. It was useless to say anything now.
With the two families in such a mess, even if Zheng yuluo could barely marry into the Deng family, the Deng family would probably not treat her as well as before.
Zheng Jing argued with the Deng family, expressing his apology and dissatisfaction. The Deng family did not have the upper hand.
Zheng yuluo just sat there in a daze, as if she did not hear anything around her.
Zheng Yuwei spoke to her softly, but she didnt respond.
It turned out that Deng kun was fine. Last night, when he was sent to the hospital, Deng kun even said that he was going to die.
Zheng yuluo med herself so much that she wished she was the one who was injured!
Was he lying to her again?
Zheng yuluo was a little upset. She was still full of fear for Jing Zhi yesterday, thinking that he was going to kill someone. She thought he had gone too far.
He didnt have much enmity with Deng kun, so he was too harsh.
But today, Zheng yuluo finally understood that Jing Zhi had hit her because of her.
She left in a hurryst night and didnt talk to him again. Would he be angry?
Zheng yuluo sat in the ward, but her mind was filled with Jing Zhi.
The more she interacted with Jing Zhi, the stronger the sense of familiarity she felt.
The more she thought about it, the more suspicious she was of Jing Zhis past acquaintance.
The manager of the Waiting bar also looked familiar to her, but she couldnt remember where she had seen him before.
How many people and how many things had she forgotten?!
Zheng yuluo seemed to be out of her mind. She had not rested or eaten sincest night.
Zheng Jing was worried that she would not be able to take it, so he asked Zheng Yuwei to take her home.
However, when they arrived at the hospital, Zheng yuluo said,Weiwei, you go home first. I still have something to do.
How can we do that!
Zheng Yuwei did not agree. She hugged Zheng yuluos arm tightly and did not let her go.Dad asked me to send you home to rest. If you donte home, he will scold me to death! If theres anything you need, Ill do it for you, okay?
Tell dad that I insisted on leaving and that you couldnt stop me. He wont me you.
This was simply impossible!
Zheng Yuweis strength was several times that of Zheng yuluo, so how could she not stop her?
Even if Zheng Jing would not me her, Zheng Yuwei would never let Zheng yuluo go.
The two of them were in the middle of a tussle when Shuyin walked out of the hospital and passed by them.
Zheng Yuwei suddenly froze. She was afraid that her sister would see Shuyin, so she wanted to block Zheng yuluos line of sight, but Zheng yuluo had already seen Shuyin.
It had been a long time since shest saw Shuyin.
They had not seen each other before Jing Zhi left the entertainment industry and when Zheng yuluo was still a small-time actress.
Looking at Shu Yins side profile, Zheng yuluo couldnt remember her name for a long time!
It was not until Shu Yin had walked far away that Zheng yuluos mind shed with her name.
Shuyin!
Shuyins footsteps paused for a moment before she continued walking. She walked to her car as if she hadnt heard anything, got in, and left.
Chapter 1348
Chapter 1348: Let your friende over to our house
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo was stunned on the spot, and many messy images kept shing in her memory.
It was about Shuyin, as well as some other people.
However, all the images were blurry and could not be pieced together.
Ah!
Zheng yuluo screamed and fell to the ground.
She had a terrible headache. Just now, she suddenly remembered a lot of things, but they disappeared very quickly!
Zheng yuluos head hurt so much that it felt like it was going to explode. She could no longer think.
Sister!
Zheng Yuwei was shocked and quickly hugged her,Sister, whats wrong? Ill carry you to the hospital and let the doctor take a look at you!
No, Im fine!
Zheng yuluo endured her headache and refused to see a doctor.
Every time she wanted to recall something, she would have a headache and then be sent to the hospital by her family.
Mu Qing would give her a lot of medicine ording to Zheng Jings request.
The medicine was very effective. After taking it, her head didnt hurt anymore. However, at the same time, her sealed memory was sealed even more firmly, and she couldnt remember anything.
Now, every time Zheng yuluo had a headache, she would avoid her family and not let them know.
Zheng yuluo finally followed Zheng Yuwei home.
Shey on the bed alone, thinking about the scene of her meeting Shuyin in the hospital.
She had some impression of Shuyin. She clearly remembered that they were good friends who studied in the same university. Why had they not seen each other or contacted each other for such a long time?
Zheng yuluo turned on her phone and looked through her contacts many times, but there was no contact for Shuyin.
Could it be that she had remembered wrongly?
Today, Shuyin had clearly seen her and heard her calling her, but why didnt she speak to her?
Zheng yuluo still felt a headache, and her mind was in a mess. She couldnt even focus on one thing.
Her mind was filled with a mess of memory fragments. Zheng yuluo felt terrible. She wanted to piece together the memories, but she was powerless.
She fell asleep in a daze, and when she woke up again, it was already afternoon.
His parents had returned from the hospital, and Deng kun had been sent home. The two families had turned from inws to half enemies.
Zheng Jing was sitting in the living room with a gloomy face. Seeing Zheng yuluoing downstairs, he said sternly,Luoluo,e here! Exin to me, what happenedst afternoon andst night!
Zheng yuluo walked into the living room and sat down opposite Zheng Jing.
Her face was a little pale, but her eyes were calm and determined.Dad, I dont like Deng kun. Ive fallen for someone else. He went to provoke my friendst night and was beaten up by him. However, my friend had nothing to do with it. He beat Deng kun up to protect me.
Is marriage a game? The engagement is such a big deal, and you can just call it off? Cant you think about me and your mom? Your mom and I couldnt clean up the mess yesterday afternoon!
You said you like someone else. You met him at the bar, right? How much true love can there be in a bar?
How many people can tolerate you and take care of you like Deng kun? Luoluo, youre really too naive. Youve really disappointed me! Cant you just live a peaceful and stable life?
If it had been yesterday, Zheng yuluo would have been in the mood to argue with Zheng Jing about their love.
But today, Zheng yuluo had lost interest in all these.
She just wanted to know what had happened to her in the past.
Zheng yuluo listened to her fathers scolding in silence. She had an urge to escape from this family.
As soon as this thought came to her, she felt that she seemed to have had the same idea before, and she had done it before.
Zheng yuluo could not help but ask,Dad, I ran away from home before, right?
Zheng Jing was startled and frowned.Why are you asking this?
He didnt know how much memory Zheng yuluo had lost, but he was sure that she didnt remember Jing Zhi at all.
Everything about Jing Zhi was a taboo at home.
Zheng Jing didnt answer directly because Zheng yuluo had run away from home for Jing Zhi.
Otherwise, if Zheng yuluo asked him why she had run away from home, he would not be able to answer.
Its nothing. Im just asking. I dont remember many things from the past. Ive always wanted to know why youre so worried about me. Youre so strict with me no matter what I do. Is it because I ran away from home?
No, youre too naive. Im just afraid that youll be deceived outside. Your sister is more cautious. She has also learned some fighting skills outside, so shes not afraid of running into bad people. Thats why Im more in charge of you.
Zheng Jing didnt want to admit that Zheng yuluo had run away from home in a fit of anger. He was afraid that she would continue to ask, so he brought up the friend that Zheng yuluo had mentioned.
If you have the chance, ask your friend toe over to our house to y. If you really like him and hes good to you, I wont object to you two being together.
Zheng yuluo was shocked,dad, really? Youre not lying to me, right?
Really, I just hope that you can be happy. Since you dont like Deng kun, I wont mention this matter in the future. But you cant be willful. You must bring your boyfriend home and dad will help you check.
Zheng Jing had adjusted his strategy after being checkmated by his daughter the day before.
In order not to cause any more trouble during the engagement, Zheng Jing decided to get his daughters approval before she could get engaged.
The man she liked had beaten Deng kun up, so he was probably not a good person.
If he was not satisfied after they met, he had plenty of ways to make the other party give up on Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo didnt know what Zheng Jing was thinking. She thought that Zheng Jing would really support her and Jing Zhis rtionship and she was very happy.
During dinner, she was also more active than usual.
Seeing his daughter smile again, Zheng Jing was in a good mood and some of his thoughts changed.
He just hoped that his daughters new boyfriend would not be too bad. As long as he was about the same level and treated Zheng yuluo well, he did not care about his family background.
It was rare for Zheng yuluo to fall in love with someone else after Jing Zhi, so he could let the two of them try to talk.
Zheng yuluo had a good nights sleep. She got up the next day, had breakfast, and drove to work.
She parked her car and went to thepany building, but she unexpectedly met Deng kun.
What are you doing here? Are your injuries all healed? You should rest well at home!
There were no visible injuries on Deng kuns body, but his face was a little pale and he looked dispirited.
Luoluo, Ive been thinking about it the entire night. I cant live without you! I dont care how much it hurts, as long as you cane back to me!

Chapter 1349: A scapegoat
Trantor: 549690339
Deng kuns eyes were red and his voice was hoarse. He looked heartbroken and infatuated.
Even Zheng yuluo felt that she had been a little too cruel.
Deng kun had always been a yboy, so she had never known how much he liked her.
Weve already broken up. Deng kun, go home. Donte looking for me anymore. I have someone I like. Didnt you see it the night before?
No! I dont believe that you would like that kind of person! The owner of the bar is obviously from the underworld. Hes not a good person. If you follow him, you cant even see the light! But I can give you the best life. My job is open and honorable, and Im respected!
In fact, Zheng yuluo was also suspicious of Jing Zhis identity.
Indeed, he always covered his face, not letting people see his full appearance.
He did have a cold temperament, like a god of death, as if he would go berserk at any moment.
His identity was a mystery. Until now, Zheng yuluo still did not know his real name, where his family was, and who else was in his family.
You dont have to worry about that. I know what Im doing,
Zheng yuluo felt uneasy, but she had a feeling that Jing Zhi would never hurt her.
After all, he had saved her twice, and they had been alone together before.
If he wanted to make a move, there were too many opportunities!
You Take a few days off and rest at home for a while! I broke up with you in front of so many people. I didnt mean to embarrass you, but Ive mentioned it to you many times, and you always disagreed. I had no choice, so I could only
Luoluo, stop talking. Its all my fault. I dont me you.
Deng kuns face was sad. He took a step forward, grabbed Zheng yuluos hand, and said affectionately,Can you give me another chance? Weve been in love for so long, even if you have a cat or dog, you should have feelings for it! Do you really not care about me at all?
Zheng yuluo instinctively wanted to pull her hand back, but her strength was no match for Deng kun S. No matter how hard she tried, Deng kun would not let go.
Let me go. Cant we talk properly?
What if you turn around and leave after I let you go? Its not like weve never held hands before, what are you afraid of?
If Deng kun had not been injured, his body was still weak, and his chest had been aching, he would have directly held Zheng yuluo in his arms.
He had been in a rtionship with Zheng yuluo for so long, but the reason why he could resist not touching her was not because he was a gentleman, but because he felt that Zheng yuluo would be his sooner orter, and it would not be toote to slowly teach her in the future.
The process of pursuing a beauty was also very interesting. Hanging on to Zheng yuluo and being able to flirt with Zheng Yuwei from time to time was also a wonderful thing.
His original n was to get the two sisters to bed and have two identical women serve him together. It would definitely be great!
In the end, when he was only one step away from eating it, Zheng yuluo had actually gone with another man!
He was furious, but he still had to pretend to be deeply in love. At this moment, he grabbed Zheng yuluos hand with a lot of strength.
Luoluo, Ive bought you a gift. Come with me, okay?
Let go, I still have to go to work! You can keep your gift, I dont want it!
Zheng yuluo finally realized that something was wrong with Deng kun. She couldnt pull her hand out, so she made up her mind and bit the back of Deng kuns hand.
Deng kun felt the pain and involuntarily let go.
He watched Zheng yuluo run into the office building, and the viciousness in his eyes shed.
If he couldnt get it, then no one else could!
B * tch, he would make her cry and beg him!
Deng kun, look at how disdainful he is of you!
Chen Yiqian had appeared behind Deng kun. She was wearing a pair of big sunsses that covered half of her face. Her tone was full of ridicule.
Youre even willing to pay for it, I feel that its not worth it for you. Youre highly educated, have a good job, and youre handsome. What kind of woman cant you find? Do I have to nt it on Zheng yuluo?
Get lost! If you didnt seduce me on purpose, Zheng yuluo wouldnt have broken up with me!
Deng kuns face was cold. He clutched his chest in pain and sat in his car.
Mu Qing had said that he was only slightly injured and that he was fine, but Deng kun did not think so.
His chest kept hurting, and sometimes it hurt so much that he couldnt breathe.
He felt that he needed to go to another hospital for another examination.
Chen Yixuan got into Deng kuns car shamelessly. When she saw his pale face, she realized that there was something wrong with his body. Whats wrong with you? Was he sick? Or was he injured? Do you need me to send you to the hospital?
Youre quite considerate,Deng kun couldnt help but look at her.
If I like you, I will naturally care about you. Zheng yuluo doesnt care about you at all, so she doesnt notice your pain. Im different from her. Ive liked you for a long time!
Suddenly being confessed to, Deng kun felt proud.
After thinking about it carefully, Chen Yiqian did not seem to have any major problems.
She had been trying her best to seduce him and pursue him. It was possible that she had really fallen for him.
Her skills in bed were also particrly outstanding. Being with her, he could simply forget all his troubles!
If he had not been injured and could not do any vigorous exercise, he would have done it with Chen yizhao.
In the end, it was Chen Yiqian who apanied Deng kun to the hospital for a re-examination.
The result was much worse than what Mu Qing had said. But the doctor also said that he was young and would recover soon.
Deng kun was extremely angry. He felt that family MUs Hospital must have done something to lighten his injury on purpose!
That night, he had seen mu Sen drinking in the bar. Who knew if he had made a deal with the bar owner?
Chen Yiqian also knew the reason for Deng kuns injury. She rolled her eyes and lowered her head to whisper into Deng kuns ear,We cant just let this matter rest, we have to find a way to help you take revenge! We dont dare to mess with Zheng yuluos family, but we can find a chance to get rid of the bar owner!
Deng kun wanted revenge more than Chen Yiqian. He not only wanted to kill Jing Zhi, but he also wanted to get Zheng yuluo.
Previously, there was no one to discuss this with. Now, Chen Yiqian, who had a stomach full of evil ideas, had a helper.
He looked at Chen Yiyi with an obscure gaze and felt that she was a good scapegoat.
Chen Yiqian looked at Deng kun and was thinking about how to extort arge sum of money from him.
The two of them schemed against each other, but they both acted as if nothing had happened, brewing one conspiracy after another.
Chapter 1350
Chapter 1350: The despised miss Zheng
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo got off work in the afternoon and went straight to the waiting bar without even eating.
It was only FiveO clock when she arrived, and the bar was not open yet.
She climbed in through the window and looked around, but Jing Zhi was nowhere to be found.
Zheng yuluo was a little disappointed. Every time she came, she would meet Jing Zhi. This time, there was no one around, and she felt very empty.
She waited for more than an hour before the staff of the bar came to work.
The waiter opened the door and saw Zheng yuluo sitting inside. He frowned.
He knew that this person was his bosss woman, but wasnt it too rude to just swagger in and sit down?
Miss, you didnt jump in from the window, did you? Dont you know that breaking in is illegal?
As the man was talking, another waiter came to work.
Once he figured out the ins and outs of the matter, he felt a little disdainful of Zheng yuluo.
Miss, dont tell me you think our bosss Bar is yours? Did you know that our boss is sick and hospitalized?
Youre hospitalized?
Whats wrong? Zheng yuluo was stunned.Whats his illness?
Could it be the problem with his body that mu Sen had mentionedst time?
If you dont know about it, then we, the waitresses, dont know either!
The two waitresses felt that Zheng yuluo was not worthy of their boss. What happened the day before yesterday was still vivid in their minds. They both felt that Zheng yuluo was not a good person and was two-timing, so they were very impolite.
Which hospital is he staying in?
I dont know!
Do you have his phone number? Ill give him a call and ask him!
The two waitresses looked at each other. So this woman hadnt gotten the bosss number yet!
I dont know! The two of them shook their heads.
Then Do you know the name of your boss?
I dont know! The two waiters rolled their eyes.
Our bar isnt open yet. Miss, you can go out and wait! Were going to clean up the ce, so dont dirty your clothes!
Miss, youre the one who damaged our window, right? You should pay!
Zheng yuluo had never been treated so coldly before. She was so angry that tears were welling up in her eyes. She felt especially wronged.
When Jing Zhi was here, they all smiled at her. They even closed the bar for her.
Jing Zhi wasnt here, so no one was nice to her.
At that moment, she missed Jing Zhi so much.
She only felt safe when he was around.
Zheng yuluo was chased out of the bar. She stood outside the bar door, feeling a little ufortable, listening to the two waiters inside muttering things like she was shameless and seducing men.
She wanted to find Jing Zhi, but she didnt know where to find him.
Did he have to go to every hospital and ask them?
She stood in ce, waiting anxiously. It was only when she saw Jin Xins figure that her tightly furrowed brows finally rxed.
She stopped Jin Xin, who was about to enter the bar, and asked,Manager, I heard that your boss is in the hospital. Which hospital is he in now?
Hes fine, you dont have to worry.
In fact, Jin Xin was full ofints about Zheng yuluo.
He was a good manager who had led Jing Zhi to sess in the entertainment industry. All the top stars in the industry had to call him brother Jin when they saw him, but now he had been reduced to this manager.
Whats more, in order not to let Zheng yuluo recognize him, he was forced by Jing Zhi to have minor stic surgery. When he went back to his hometownst month, even his own mother couldnt recognize him!
Therefore, his attitude toward Zheng yuluo was not any better.
However, he was worried that Zheng yuluo would tell on him in front of Jing Zhi, so he didnt dare to scold her.
If youre here to see our boss, then go back! He wouldnt being to the Bar for a while. Oh, right, I havent asked yet. Is your friend alright? Our boss is still thinking about him! Im afraid that Ill be too heavy-handed and injure him.
Jin Xin made up a story, trying to make Zheng yuluo feel good about Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo was touched by his words. She immediately said,Hes fine. The doctor said its just a minor injury and hell be fine after a few days.
Oh, thats good. Our boss was quite upset when he saw how scared you were that day. He has no grudges with your friend, so theres no need to make things difficult for him. Dont you think hes a little stupid? You didnt get any benefits from beating someone up, youre just a bad person.
Zheng yuluo could tell that he was despising her for being a femme fatale and having an ambiguous rtionship with another man, causing Jing Zhi to deal with Deng kun on her behalf. However, she only cared about Deng kun and not Jingzhi.
I I saw that my friends injuries were quite serious and I was afraid that something might have happened to him, so I followed him to the hospital. Your boss isnt an evil person, hes a good person, I know that.
Jin Xin had a lot to say to Zheng yuluo, but there were many things he couldnt say. Even if he did, Zheng yuluo wouldnt remember. She had forgotten what Jing Zhi had done for her.
This was the most frustrating thing!
Jing Zhi was the only one who was willing to do so behind Zheng yuluos back because he loved her wholeheartedly. If it had been anyone else, they would not have been able to take it.
Alright, you dont have to tell me this. Im just an employee. I just feel that its not worth it for our boss to put in so much effort. There are so many women in the world, but I dont know why he likes you so much. Hes going crazy from liking you!
Zheng yuluo was stunned. Jing Zhi had told her that he liked her, but hearing it from someone elses mouth made her feel even more deeply.
You dont know, do you? The name of this bar is waiting. Wait, who is he waiting for? for you!
What did you just say? Wait for me?
How could this be possible?
How long had they known each other?
This bar had been open for a long time, right?
No, no, no, thats not right!
This bar had only opened when she started working nearby!
Zheng yuluo raised her head and looked at the colorful English words hanging high in the bar. She was shocked beyond words.
She never knew that this word was referring to her!
Zheng yuluos voice was trembling.When did he know me? Has it been a long time?
Jin Xin didnt dare to answer this question. If Jing Zhi found out that he had revealed the secret that they had known each other for a long time, he would be furious.
He had already said enough today. He could not say anymore.
Jing Zhi had been stubbornly waiting for Zheng yuluo to remember him. He didnt want anyone else to remind Zheng yuluo.
Dont you know best when you met? Why are you still asking me? How would I know when you two met!
Then why did you say hes been waiting for me?
Who knows! Maybe I fell in love with you at first sight? As far as I know, you also fell in love with our boss at first sight, right?
Chapter 1351
Chapter 1351: Im not close to him
Trantor: 549690339
That was true. The doubts in Zheng yuluos heart dissipated a lot. She tried to calm her turbulent heart and pleaded,Can you tell me which hospital hes in? I want to see him.
Im sorry, I cant tell you.
It wasnt that Jin Xin didnt want to say it, but he didnt dare to.
Jing Rui was watching over Jing Zhi and letting him treat him. If Zheng yuluo went, it would cause a World War!
Jing Rui hated Zheng yuluo more than he did, and he had told him clearly that he could not let Zheng yuluo see Jing Zhi in the hospital.
Jin Xin entered the bar without looking back, leaving Zheng yuluo alone outside.
Zheng yuluo stood there in a daze, looking at the huge Waiting blinking. She felt a little bitter.
It was only now that she realized she didnt know Jing Zhi at all.
He had disappeared, and she didnt know where to find him.
Zheng yuluos legs were a little numb from standing before she returned to her car.
She opened her phones contact list, found mu Sens phone number, and dialed it.
The call was quickly connected and mu Sens clear voice came from the phone,Rain!
Mu Sen, I have something to ask you.
Yes, go ahead.
Do you remember the boss of the Waiting bar? I think hes in the hospital. Can you help me check if hes in your hospital?
Mu Sen nced at Jing Zhi, who was lying on the bed and receiving nutrient fluids. He said in a gentle tone,Ill help you investigate.
Um Do you know his name and address?
Mu Sen couldnt help but look at Jing Zhi again. He tried to keep his voice calm.I dont know. Im not close to him.
Oh, then Thank you! If you find anything, tell me as soon as possible.
Alright, he said.
Mu Sen hung up the phone and his gaze was a little strange.Zheng yuluo has already hugged and hugged you, yet she still doesnt know your name?
She asked me a few times, but I didnt tell her.
Jing Zhi said this calmly. He looked at the needle in his arm and felt the cold liquid enter his body. He couldnt help but feel a little irritated.
When will this broken thing finish losing? I dont like this! Quickly pull it out!
Within an hour, Jing Zhi had already requested for the needle to be removed dozens of times.
Mu Sen ignored his request and sighed,Do you think I should praise Zheng yuluo for being brave or scold her for being brainless? She dared to date you without knowing your name. Is she twenty-two or two years old? Im only one year older than her, but why do I feel like Im ten thousand times smarter than her?
Youre the one without a brain! As long as shes not stupid, she can feel that Im good to her! Besides, shes liked me before, so its normal for her to like me again!
Isnt she afraid that youre a liar?
People like you who have never been in love will not understand the chemistry between us. When you fall in love with someone, you will not care about anything else. Pull out the needle for me, I really hate being injected with things!
Mu Sen automatically ignored Jing Zhisst sentence. He sat on the chair, crossed his legs, and said leisurely,
Havent you only been in a rtionship once? why are you a love expert now? Howe Ive never been in a rtionship before? I had a girlfriend when I was in school!
A secret love is not love! Do you have anymon sense?
If you continue to show off your love and abuse single people, do you believe Ill draw your blood?
Jing Zhi shut his mouth when he heard that they were going to draw blood.
Mu Sen bullied him whenever he wanted because he had Jing Ruis support.
If Jing Zhi was not afraid that Jing Rui would hurt Zheng yuluo, he would not be lying here and arguing with mu Sen.
How was Zheng yuluos condition when we were on the phone earlier? You didnt cry, right?
Mu Sen almost thought he had heard wrong.Cry? Why did she cry?
Im afraid that she wont be able to find me and will cry. Its also possible that theyll cry when theyre bullied or miss me too much.
Mu Sen stared at Jing Zhi! Who had said this calmly, with his mouth agape. He thought that his soul might have been stolen!
Second master Jing, youre thinking too much. Im fine. I didnt cry at all. Can you please not be so narcissistic? Even a narcissist like me cantpare to you!
Call her backter and tell her that Im at your hospital and that Im in good health. Tell her not to worry! Also, ask her if anyone has been bullying her these past two days.
Your brother has already ordered that whoever dares to tell Zheng yuluo that youre in our hospital will be chopped up and fed to the dogs with Zheng yuluo. Im timid and dont dare to challenge your brothers authority.
Mu Sen cut off Jing Zhis thoughts and said,Zheng yuluos father is the director of the Public Security Bureau. Who would dare to bully her? With bureau chief Zhengs protective look, he would kill whoever touched Zheng yuluo! If he knows that youre with his daughter again, Im afraid hell go berserk.
This was what Jing Zhi had been worried about.
Zheng Jing had always opposed Zheng yuluos rtionship with him. He had even married her off when she was 22 years old.
Zheng Jing was probably the happiest person to see Zheng yuluo forget about him.
Jing Zhi hated the blood in his body.
There was arge amount of virus in his blood and it was deadly. It was normal that Zheng Jing didnt like him because he thought he was too dangerous.
Mu Sen, didnt Shuyin say that the virus in my body has mutated? Would they still be fatal after they mutated? Will it be better?
Jing Zhi sounded like a helpless child, innocent and lost.
Mu Sen had seen Jing Zhi like this many years ago.
At that time, they were still very young, and Jing Zhi was just like now. He asked mu Wensheng in a daze,Great-grandfather, why dont the children y with me? My blood is poisonous, right? Can you cure me?
Mu Sen had beenughing at Jing Zhi a moment ago, but now he felt sad for Jing Zhi.
He had suffered so much pain that his peers had never experienced before. He had also suffered the pressure and prejudice that a child should not have.
Fate was too unfair. Jing Zhis life had been too rough.
He only hoped that the Zheng yuluo he loved could also love the imperfect him with all her heart.
Mu Sens eyes were slightly wet. He looked at the growing white hair on Jing Zhis head and said in a low voice,Jing Zhi, youll be fine. Medicine is always improving, and the virus will be conquered. Shuyin has put all her energy into this virus. With her medical knowledge, shell find a way.
He didnt dare to tell Jing Zhi that the virus in his body had be more powerful after the mutation.
As long as his blood didnte into contact with other peoples wounds, he would be fine. If the virus entered someone elses body, the result would be the same, death regardless of whether the toxicity increased or not.
He hoped that Zheng yuluo wouldnt be infected if she stayed by his side in the future. Otherwise, Jing Zhi would me himself and feel guilty for the rest of his life.
No, if Zheng yuluo died, Jing Zhi might not be able to live either.
Chapter 1352
Chapter 1352: You all deserve it
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi only smiled at mu Sensforting words.
The virus in his body was extremely rare, and it was extremely difficult to ovee.
For example, the moremon blood-transmitted HIV could not be ovee in the current medical world, let alone something moreplicated than this.
Jing Zhi now felt that it was a good thing that he had been a test subject at the Virus Research Institute.
The worlds top virologists had gathered together and preserved arge amount of experimental data for his body. They had done countless analyses and gicparisons, leaving him with a glimmer of hope.
Moreover, he had also gotten to know Shuyin and Peter. They had spared no effort in researching viruses, regardless of the cost. Who knew, they might really be able to achieve a breakthrough!
Jing Zhis mood slowly improved. He ate a lot of supper that night, which surprised mu Sen.
Didnt you only drink and not eat?
My brother said that if I dont eat, hell chop Zheng yuluo up and feed her to the dogs.
Tsk!
Mu Sen admired Jing Rui a little.Your brother is really good at finding your weakness. The point is, he is never joking. He really did it. Domineering, he had style! How good would it be if I had such a brother!
Arent you two cousins? Hes your brother too!
Come on, just because we didnt y with you when we were young, he still doesnt talk to us!
Mu Sen did not think that Jing Rui was his brother. Jing Rui was as cold as an Ice Mountain, and he did not want to talk to him.
Zheng Yuwei has already graduated and returned to her country. Mu duo is still in the United Kingdom military school. Not to mention brother, it was useless to call him ancestor! When did he ever treat me as a cousin? You only know how to enve me all day, and now youre forcing me to take care of you, a Great Buddha.
You guys deserve it!
Jing Zhi was gloating. Jing Rui had always treated him as a younger brother, which had been his pride since he was a child, and the warmestfort he had ever had.
I wont die from touching you. Everyone treats me like a demon, especially that little bad guy Zheng yuluo. She even gave me the nickname monster at such a young age and told everyone that Im poisonous!
Youre poisoned, arent you? Zheng yuluo is deeply poisoned now. She has called me six or seven times in one night, asking me to help find you and see which hospital youre hospitalized in. She insisted oning to see you!
Mu Sen wanted tough. When he was a child, he had never thought that Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo would be a couple.
The two of them fought each other every day, as if they had a feud.
Do you think Zheng yuluo felt too guilty and felt that she had let you down? she was under too much psychological pressure, so she suffered from stress amnesia?
Is that the reason? Jing Zhi asked, surprised.
He had always thought that Zheng yuluo hated him so much that she had subconsciously chosen to forget him.
That should be the reason. Shes so nervous even though she doesnt know your name. Im afraid shes always felt that she owed you.
Mu Sen specialized in Chinese Medicine and Surgery. He did not study much about amnesia, but based on Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhis conditions, he could roughly judge the cause.
Jing Zhi was happy as long as Zheng yuluo didnt hate him.
She was very concerned about him and kept thinking about his hospitalization. This was already very good.
He had been very jealous of Deng kun. Deng kun was injured, and Zheng yuluo had apanied him for a whole night. Now Jing Zhi felt much better.
Anyway, Deng kun wouldpletely withdraw from Zheng yuluos life in the future, so taking care of him for one night was nothing.
However, on the contrary, not only did Deng kun not quit Zheng yuluos life, but he was also actively trying to get Zheng yuluo back.
Deng kun had been going to Zheng yuluospany in the morning for several days, begging her to change her mind. At night, he would bring gifts to the Zheng family to express his love for Zheng yuluo.
Zheng Jing had always thought that Deng kun was very suitable for marriage. So he felt that it would be a pity if Zheng yuluo didnt marry him.
Luoluo, cant you just reconsider Deng kun? Ive seen hime here every day these past few days, and he always looks like he really misses you. He really likes you.
The rtionship between the father and daughter had improved a lot recently. Zheng Jings tone was not as tough as before, but he was negotiating with Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo could not get angry at her father, so she could only repeat her words over and over again,Father, I dont like him and I dont want to live with him. He has many women outside, you just dont know about it.
Luoluo, you do like Deng kun, but you just dont know it. You were so worried about him when he was injuredst time and even stayed by his side the whole night. If you didnt have any feelings for him, why would you leave the bar owner and take care of Deng kun?
Zheng yuluo didnt expect Zheng Jing to understand her in this way. She said anxiously,If it was someone else, I would also be nervous. After all, its a life. Deng kun didnt do any unpardonable evil, I cant just watch him get into trouble.
Luoluo, dont be in such a hurry to exin yourself. He was very touched that you took care of Deng kun all night. He also said that he could feel that you had feelings for him, but he was just angry that there were too many girls around him. Deng kun is so handsome. Its normal for many girls to like him. Dont be jealous of this. The person he likes the most is still you. The others are just a fleeting sight.
Zheng yuluo didnt know what to say after hearing what Zheng Jing said.
She almost believed that she and Deng kun were a pair of sweet lovers!
Did she like Deng kun just because she was worried about his injury?
If even Zheng Jing thought so, what about the others?
Zheng yuluo suddenly understood why the two waitresses had looked down on her when she had gone to the waiting bar that day!
She was more eager to see Jing Zhi now and tell him that she had no love for Deng kun and that she was taking care of him because she was afraid that his life would be in danger.
Zheng yuluo was anxious when Deng kun came in from the door.
He seemed to be in good spirits today. His hair was neatlybed, and he was wearing a dark gray suit. He was holding arge bouquet of roses in his hand as he slowly walked to Zheng yuluo.
Zheng Jing smiled when he saw Deng kun.You two continue chatting. I still have work to do. Ill go to the study first!
He wanted to give Deng kun a chance to move his daughter.
Deng kun greeted uncle enthusiastically. When he left, he handed the Rose to Zheng yuluo.Luoluo, lets start over! I wont be ambiguous with any other woman in the future. Ill definitely turn over a new leaf!
I wont be with you. Leave! Youll find a girl who truly suits you and loves you.
Zheng yuluos voice was very soft. She didnt know if Deng kun would really change his fickleness in the future, but seeing his devout and serious look now, she couldnt say such hurtful words.
Chapter 1353
Chapter 1353: Elder brothers anger and helplessness
Trantor: 549690339
Deng kun was sensitive to the change in Zheng yuluos attitude, and he could not help but feel happy.
His many days of coaxing and pestering, acting obediently to please her, were not in vain.
Luoluo, weve been together for so long, but have I ever truly hurt you? Ive been taking care of you carefully, all in preparation for our future. How could you be so cruel and leave me alone to look after our gowns and be sad alone?
Zheng yuluo thought about it carefully and felt that Deng kun was telling the truth. He had always been very gentle and careful in taking care of her.
There was a trace of guilt in her heart, and her voice became gentle,Im sorry, but feelings cant be forced. If we force ourselves to live together, we wont be happy.
Its okay, I can wait, wait until you fall in love with me, wait until you want to marry me, then we can get married! Well definitely be happy!
Deng kuns words were so sincere that even Zheng yuluo, who didnt like him, felt a little touched.
However, the touched Zheng yuluo did not know that these few lines were specially designed for Deng kun by Chen Yixi. She even asked him to say it more than a dozen times in front of her to help him adjust his expression and tone.
Deng kun did not pester Zheng yuluo that night. He left after saying these words.
Zheng yuluo was holding the big bouquet of roses he had given her, sitting in the living room in a daze.
At first, the reason why she agreed to be in a rtionship with Deng kun was that Deng kun had touched her with his true feelings, just like today.
At that time, she had thought that even if she didnt like Deng kun, she didnt hate him. His figure was perfect for her precious grey coat, so she had followed Zheng Jings wishes and got together with Deng kun.
However, she knew that this was not love.
The autumn wind was bleak, and the night was heavy.
Jing Zhi was lying on the hospital bed alone. All kinds of tubes were inserted into his body. Blood was constantly drawn out of his body and new blood was slowly injected into it. All kinds of drugs were injected into his body to maintain his life and slowly repair his damaged cells.
The pain seeped deep into his bones. Jing Zhi was in extreme pain as his blood was drawn out.
He was sometimes awake and sometimes unconscious. He had been having endless nightmares.
He always felt that he had returned to his childhood, back to the time when he first entered the Virus Research Institute, and had his blood and bone marrow drawn out.
Most of Jing Zhis dreams were painful memories. Jing Zhi only felt less painful when he saw Zheng yuluos face.
Every time he woke up, he would think about the bits and pieces of his time with Zheng yuluo.
This way, when he fell asleep again because of the pain, he could have a trace offort in the painful dream.
Outside the intensive care unit, Jing Rui had been watching over his brother. He saw Jing Zhis pained expression through the ss, and he felt as much pain as Jing Zhi did.
Something was wrong with Jing Zhis body.
After a few days and nights of research and analysis, Shuyin and Peter hade up with a treatment n for Jing Zhi.
Otherwise, Jing Zhi would only be able to live for a few more years.
Jing Rui could not bear such a loss.
He had spent so many years to bring Jing Zhi out of the Research Institute, not just to let him live for a few years.
He had to live for at least a hundred years!
How could he abandon his brother and go to another world alone!
If he could, Jing Rui wanted to kill Zheng yuluo right now.
She had ruined Jing Zhis childhood, and now the young man was going to ruin the rest of Jing Zhis life.
But Jing Rui knew that if he killed Zheng yuluo, Jing Zhi would never call him brother again. He would hate him for the rest of his life.
Jing Rui had no choice but to keep Zheng yuluo alive, despite his anger.
He had never felt so aggrieved in his life!
He and Jing Zhi, the two brothers, were influential people who had climbed to the top by stepping on countless corpses. They were cold killers who had been baptized in blood. However, they had both been defeated by a woman like Zheng yuluo.
Shu Yin walked behind Jing Rui and hugged him from behind. She said softly,Dont be sad, Jingzhi will get better and he will be happy in the future. Zheng yuluo has always liked him, its just that he always had problems. Theyre all mature now, so theyll be fine.
Jing Rui turned around with red eyes and took Shuyin into his arms. He said in a low voice,Yinyin, thank you for your hard work! I dont know how to thank you, but when Jing Zhi is better, you can order him around. Dont be shy!
Shuyin looked exhausted. She had been working at such high intensity for too long, and her body was almost unable to take it.
She touched Jing Ruis well-defined face and said with a smile,What are you thanking me for? were family with Jing Zhi. If I dont save him, who will? Im already very satisfied that the things Ive learned can be used to save lives.
You go back and rest first. Ill take care of this.
Jing Rui kissed Shuyins forehead. He felt sorry for her, but he was proud of her for being so capable and smart.
His wife was a woman that even mu Sen, the heir of a medical family, respected.
Shuyin didnt go home to rest. She was very worried about Jing Zhis condition and had been taking turns to watch over him with Peter in the hospital. She went back to her ownboratory and fell asleep on the small foldable bed.
Jing Zhis treatment went on for a week and the initial pain was gone. Although the subsequent treatment still made Jing Zhi feel nauseated, at least he didnt pass out.
Zheng yuluo hadnt seen Jing Zhi for half a month. Deng kun, on the other hand, had been hanging out with her, giving her flowers today and chocte the next day. The gifts were not expensive, but he had carefully chosen the ones that Zheng yuluo liked.
Having been in love for so long, Deng kun was, of course, clear about Zheng yuluos preferences.
Coaxing a woman was a piece of cake for an expert in love like Deng kun.
The most important thing was that he could actually hold back from touching Zheng Yuwei, so much so that even Zheng Yuwei felt that he had really turned over a new leaf this time.
In the evening, Deng kun came to the Zheng family for dinner again. When Zheng yuluo wasnt paying attention, Zheng Yuwei whispered to Deng kun,Deng kun, youd better keep this up. My sister is worthy of your care. Dont let her down.
These words were equivalent to Zheng Yuwei agreeing to Deng kun marrying Zheng yuluo.
Of course. Im looking forward to marrying your sister and bringing her happiness, Deng kun said with a gentle smile.
His gaze subtly swept across Zheng Yuweis perky and full chest, and his heart was itching.
Compared to Zheng yuluo, Deng kun actually liked Zheng Yuwei more.
She was hot and sexy, and her police uniform wrapped around her exquisite body. It happened to be the uniform temptation that Deng kun liked the most!
Chapter 1354
Chapter 1354: 9th of October, her birthday
Trantor: 549690339
Some men liked delicate and beautiful girls, but men like Deng kun, who had yed with many women, preferred hot little chili like Zheng Yuwei!
This kind of woman was more exciting to y with!
Just thinking about it made Deng kun feel particrly good.
He was worried that his overly naked eyes would expose himself, so he quickly lowered his head and took a big gulp of cold water to suppress the desire in his heart.
Zheng Yuwei had never experienced a man before. She had been in love before, but it was only limited to pure love such as holding hands.
She knew that Deng kun had feelings for her, but she couldnt imagine how dirty and disgusting he was.
She naively thought that Deng kun was confused because she looked too simr to her sister.
It was true that some people would mistake identical twins for each other, especially when Zheng Yuweis hair was gradually growing longer, and Zheng yuluo had cut her hair. Their hairstyles were getting closer and closer.
Deng kun could understand that.
However, Zheng Yuwei somehow thought of Jing Zhi in the past.
He had never mistook her for his sister.
Even if she had dressed up as her sister andid on her bed, Jing Zhi only needed one look to tell that she was not Zheng yuluo.
Zheng Yuwei didnt know how Jing Zhi could recognize her. If she had slept in Zheng yuluos room and her mother hade to wake her up, she would have thought she was her sister.
When she was young, she often yed this trick with her sister, teasing her parents for fun.
Jing Zhi was probably the only person in the world who could separate the two sisters under any circumstances.
In his eyes, she waspletely different from his sister.
It was a pity that Jing Zhi was too dangerous and impulsive. Zheng Yuwei didnt feel at ease leaving her sister in his hands.
Anyway, love couldnt be eaten. After marriage, no matter who she was with, it would slowly be family. Deng kun was a good marriage partner.
Zheng yuluo lowered her head and ate in silence. She did not respond to Deng kuns words.
At first, she had tried to drive Deng kun away, but her words didnt work. Zheng Jing had said that Deng kun could stay for dinner, so he could stay openly.
Life returned to the way it was before the engagement, when the family ate together.
It was as if the farce of the engagement had not happened at all.
October 9th was the birthday of Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei.
The Zheng familys Vi was filled with ribbons and balloons. The words Happy Birthday were hung everywhere. The stereo was also singing a happy birthday song.
There was a jubnt and lively atmosphere at home. Deng kun came to the Zheng family after work in the afternoon. Not only did he order a huge birthday cake, but he also prepared a Tiffany ne for the sisters as birthday gifts.
Deng kuns parents also came to the Zheng family after him, and they also brought gifts.
The two families got along very well, and the anger from before seemed to have disappeared!
Father Deng and mother Deng loved Zheng yuluo as much as ever. They held her hand, asked about her well-being, and praised her for being beautiful, gentle, and virtuous.
Zheng yuluo did not know what to do at such an asion with such an elder.
Could she kick out the Deng couple who hade to celebrate her birthday?
She couldn t.
Could she give her parents a hard time?
She couldnt either.
Mother Deng even gave Zheng yuluo a jade bangle, saying that it was passed down in the Deng family and that she would let her wear it in the future.
The gifts that the Deng family had brought were all double, one for Zheng yuluo and one for Zheng Yuwei. Only this jade bracelet was given to Zheng yuluo alone.
The meaning was self-evident.
Zheng yuluo refused, but mother Deng gave the bracelet to Zheng Lun and asked her to keep it for Zheng yuluo.
Zheng Lun epted it after a moment of hesitation. The atmosphere was so good that she couldnt embarrass the Deng family.
The whole family hade to celebrate their daughters birthday and had brought so many gifts. If they were to fall out, it would not look good on anyone.
If the two families were together in the future, this bracelet would be given to Zheng yuluo. If not, she would return it to the Deng family.
Zheng Yuwei saw that the atmosphere was a little stiff, so she immediately began to liven it up. One moment she was self-deprecating, and the next moment she was teasing Deng kun. The atmosphere was warm again, and the two families soon talked andughed again.
In family MUs Hospital, Jing Zhi had been drowsy for a few days under the influence of the medicine. He couldnt even remember which day it was.
Whats the date today?he asked in a hoarse voice.
As mu Sen changed the medicine for him, he casually said,Its the ninth.
Jing Zhi was stunned,number nine? 9th of October?
What else? 9th of September? September had long passed, and there were no longer any people wearing skirts on the streets. It was very cold in the morning and night. Your brother also bought you some autumn clothes. You can wear them after your treatment.
Jing Zhi had lost a lot of weight. He had put on a lot of weight this year in his autumn clothes.
Jing Zhi propped himself up and sat up on the bed with much difficulty. Im going out for a while!
Mu Sen quickly stopped him,are you crazy?! Your body has just finished a course of treatment and is at its weakest and most in need of recuperation. What are you doing out there?
Today is Zheng yuluos birthday. I must go out!
Mu Sen sighed helplessly,there are still many more birthdays for her. Its not toote for you to marry her next year and celebrate it with her! If you dont take good care of your body, you wont be able to celebrate her birthday after you die next year!
Im just going out for a while. Ill talk to her and give her a present. Ill be back soon!
Is there a need? Did she give you a present for your birthday? She must be celebrating her birthday happily with her family now. Dont join in the fun. Itll be embarrassing if you get beaten up by Zheng yuluos father! With your current body, you might not be able to defeat director Zheng.
Jing Zhi was startled and stopped in his tracks.
I wont fight Zheng Jing. Yuluo will be unhappy.
Even so, you cant go out. Its already sote, so dont give her any gifts. In a few days, when youve recovered, you can give her some gifts. Go back and lie down, you still need an IV.
Jing Zhi seemed to have heard her. Hey back down slowly and let mu Sen give him an IV.
Mu Sen found it strange that Jing Zhi had been persuaded so easily, but he didnt think much of it. He lowered his head and gave Jing Zhi an injection. Thats right, your body is the most
Before he could say the word important, mu Sen was hit hard on the back of his neck.
His vision turned ck, and it was toote to curse at Jing Zhi. He passed out.
Mu Sen had thought that Jing Zhi didnt have the strength to hit anyone, so he didnt expect Jing Zhi to suddenly give him a hand chop. He wasnt prepared at all.
If he could curse at Jing Zhi now, he would have killed him.
She had taken care of Jing Zhi for so many days, and now she was knocked out!

Chapter 1355: The sound of heartbreak
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi apologized to mu Sen in his heart. Then he pulled out the needle from the back of his hand and slowly got out of bed.
He was indeed very weak. He had used up almost all his strength to hit mu Sen.
He would not be able to see Zheng yuluo in this state. Jing Zhi opened the nutrient solution that mu Sen had prepared for him and drank it in one go.
The nutrient solution was supposed to be injected into Jing Zhis body through an intravenous injection to help his body recover and provide him with powerful energy, but Jing Zhi took it directly.
The effect would be greatly reduced, but Jing Zhi couldnt care less.
It would be fine as long as it could provide him with some energy.
Jing Zhi put on his shoes, pushed open the door to the intensive care unit, and walked out.
Shuyin was walking over with arge pile of medicine. When she saw Jing Zhi, she ran over.Where are you going, Jing Zhi? Go back quickly!
Sister-inw, I was bored inside, so I came out for a walk.
Jing Zhis face was pale, and he looked like he was about to copse. How could Shuyin let him go out for a walk?
No! Just bear with it for two more days, this isnt childs y! Ive spent so much effort to save your life, cant you Respect Life? Do you think Ive been out for the past two days? Ive been staying in the hospital all this time, and your brother is the one who brings me my meals! Go back and lie down, or Ill call your brother!
Shuyin was determined not to let Jing Zhi out of the room. Jing Zhi closed his eyes, put one arm around Shuyin, and used the other to hit the back of her neck.
With a bang, the stainless steel tray in Shu Yins hands fell to the ground, and the medicine inside spilled all over.
Then, Shu Yin fell to the ground.
Jing Zhi chuckled bitterly. He was afraid that he had angered his brother this time. Shuyin was his brothers soft spot, and no one could touch her.
He had knocked her out today, and his brother would kill himter.
However, today was Zheng yuluos birthday. How could he not go?
He had not seen her for many days. She had not called mu Sen again, nor had she gone to his bar to look for him.
He was afraid that she would forget about him again. He was afraid that in the blink of an eye, she would have to marry someone else.
Jing Zhi took a taxi and went back to his vi.
Jin Xin was at home, carefully looking through the bars business records and calcting how much money they had lostst month. When he looked up, he saw Jing Zhi standing in front of him in a patients uniform, and he almost had a heart attack!
My ancestor, why are you back?
Where did you put the ne I bought earlier?
A ne? The diamond ne that could blind people? I locked it in the safe. Its not safe to put it under your pillow!
Jin Xin stood up to open the safe, his brows deeply furrowed.I say, do you know that you look like a ghost right now? His face was frighteningly pale! Did you sneak out of the hospital? Shuyin and the others wont let you leave the hospital in this state.
Dont be so long-winded and give me the ne.
Every cell in Jing Zhis body was screaming at him. If it hadnt been for his extraordinary endurance, he would have passed out from the pain.
Jin Xin took out the ne box, opened it for Jing Zhi to confirm, and then stuffed it into his hands.You should hurry back to the hospital. Why do I feel like youre going to copse at any moment?
Shut up! Get your car keys and send me to the Zheng family.
Jin Xins jaw dropped so wide that a ducks egg could almost be stuffed inside. Youre going to find Zheng yuluo? What time was it already! Cant I go tomorrow? Youre going to see her in this hospital gown?
It has to be today. Hurry up and dont dawdle.
Jin Xin knew that if he didnt send Jing Zhi to the Zheng family, Jing Zhi would drive himself there.
Jing Zhi could easily get into an ident while driving, so it was better for him to drive Jing Zhi there.
At the same time, he could also inform Jing Rui and get Jing Zhi back to the hospital.
Jin Xin grabbed a windbreaker fromst years wardrobe and put it on Jing Zhi. Then he grabbed his car keys and started the car.
The two of them arrived at the Zheng familys Vi in no time. Jing Zhi got out of the car in a windbreaker, his forehead covered in sweat.
It was not hot, it was painful.
The gate of the vi was open. The Zheng familys car was parked in the yard, and Jing Zhi also saw another familiar Rex.
He nced at the license te number. It was Deng kuns car without a doubt.
Jing Zhis passionate heart slowly sank.
Jin Xin also saw Deng kuns car. He held Jing Zhi carefully, fearing that he would fall down in a fit of anger.
In therge living room on the first floor of the vi, there was a lot ofughter. Everyone was eating a birthday cake together and giving out all kinds of birthday wishes.
Therge floor-to-ceiling windows were excessively clean, and everything in the room could be seen clearly. Even everyones expression could be seen clearly.
Everyone inside looked very happy and blissful. They didnt notice that there were two more people in the courtyard.
Jing Zhis body trembled slightly. He looked at Zheng yuluo and the Deng family talking andughing, and he could clearly hear the sound of his heart breaking.
It waspletely shattered.
With a pfft sound, he suddenly spat out arge mouthful of blood. He was only able to remain standing by relying on Jin Xins strength.
Jing Zhi! Whats wrong? Dont scare me! Were not going in, and were not giving gifts. Lets go to the hospital!
Jin Xin hadnt cried for many years. At his age, he had experienced too much love and hatred, and had already be indifferent to emotions.
But now, he was crying!
He was so afraid that Jing Zhi would die in front of him.
Jing Zhi had been his only friend all these years.
Jin Xins voice finally startled the joyous crowd in the vi, and everyone turned their heads to look out the window.
Zheng Jing got up as soon as he saw Jing Zhis face.
Zheng yuluo was shocked to see Jing Zhi.
She didnt expect Jing Zhi toe.
Wasnt he sick and hospitalized?
Zheng yuluo was so shocked that she identally knocked over a ss of fruit juice.
The sound of the ss shattering finally woke her up. She stood up and hurried out.
Yuwei, stop your sister!
Zheng Jing roared and Zheng Yuwei rushed forward to hold Zheng yuluo at the door.Sister, dont go over!
Mr. And Mrs. Deng looked confused, but Deng kun said to Zheng Jing angrily,Uncle Zheng, he was the one who beat me upst time!
Its him?Zheng Jing was startled.
Zheng yuluo was only a few meters away from Jing Zhi. She saw Jing Zhis pale face and the blood at the corner of his lips.
Dad, hes my friend! Hes sick, quickly let him in and sit down!
Zheng Jing strode to the door and stood on the marble steps. He asked Zheng yuluo coldly,When did you get to know him?
Chapter 1356
Chapter 1356: My brother is not a demon!
Trantor: 549690339
Some time ago! Is that important?
Zheng yuluos heart ached when she saw Jing Zhis face. She cried,Dad, dont ask so many questions. Can you let him in? Weiwei, let me go!
She wanted to break free from Zheng Yuweis grip, but Zheng Yuwei was much stronger than her. No matter how much she struggled, it was useless.
Zheng Jing had quickly confirmed that Zheng yuluo had not thought of Jing Zhi, otherwise she would not have used the word friend to describe him.
Friend? Luoluo, can you tell me what your friends name is?
Zheng yuluo was stunned and turned to look at Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi was supported by Jin Xin, his clothes soaked in cold sweat.
When he saw Zheng yuluos gaze, he stood up with difficulty and said in a hoarse voice,Im Jing Zhi! Jing of Jingsheng enterprise, Zhi as in Zhi. Bureau chief Zheng knew me from the day I was born, so why ask when you already know the answer?
Jing Zhi?
When Zheng yuluo heard this name, she felt that it was somewhat familiar!
However, she couldnt remember where she had heard this name before. At this moment, she couldnt care about anything familiar. She said anxiously,Dad, you know him? Then let him in quickly! Wei Wei, why are you hugging me? let go!
Zheng Jing said coldly,he vomited blood. Let him in and all the people in this room will die! Yu Luo, stay away from him! Youre not allowed to have any contact with him in the future!
Zheng yuluo looked at her angry father in shock. She didnt understand why he was so nice to Deng kun but so fierce to Jing Zhi.
She cried and shouted,daddy, I like him! I cant stay away from him!
Jing Zhi looked at Zheng yuluo, who was very close to him, and slowly took out a ck velvet box from his pocket. He bent over and ced it on the ground with some effort.
Yuluo, it seems like I shouldnt havee tonight. I just wanted to say Happy Birthday to you. This is a gift for you, I hope you like it. It doesnt matter if you dont like it, you can just throw it away. Maybe Deng kuns gift is more suitable than mine.
Zheng Yus tears fell like rain,no, no! Dont misunderstand, theres nothing going on between us!
Blood trickled down the corner of Jing Zhis lips. His smile was bitter and deste.Your father is right. Donte near me. Im poisonous.
After saying this, he could no longer support his body, and slowly fell onto Jin Xins body.
Jing Zhi stopped breathing, and Jin Xin was scared out of his wits.Jing Zhi! Jing Zhi! Wake up!
He tried his best to carry Jing Zhi to the hospital, but the weight on his hand suddenly lightened.
He turned around and immediately cried,Jing Rui! Quickly save him!
Jing Rui supported Jing Zhi with one hand and took out the signature white handkerchief of the Jing family from his pocket to wipe the blood off Jing Zhis mouth.
He looked up at Zheng Jing coldly and said,My brother isnt a demon. His blood is poisonous, but Ive touched it. See if Im dead?!
Jing Rui looked at everyone coldly and said in a voice that sounded like it came from hell,If my brother dies, all of you will be buried with him! Family Jing will take revenge at all costs!
After he finished speaking, he carried Jing Zhi and walked out of the Zheng family.
His high-performance sports car quickly left the ce and drove to the hospital.
In the Zheng familys Vi, it was dead silent.
Everyone in A city knew about family Jing and Jingsheng enterprise.
This was a huge business empire that extended to all walks of life in A city. Family Jing had always been a legend.
Jing Zhi had just introduced himself, and Jin Xin had called Jing Ruis name.
They had all met the heirs of family Jing that night.
The three members of the Deng family werepletely petrified!
What was going on? How could he be rted to family Jing?
Zheng yuluo was also stunned.
She still remembered Jing Rui.
He was a genius and she had admired him since he was a child. She had even gone to family Jing with her sister just so that she could talk to him.
Jing Zhi was his brother!
But why did she have no impression of Jing Zhi at all?
The Jing family
Zheng yuluos mind was in a mess. She found that everything about family Jing was a blur in her memory.
After Jing Zhi left, Zheng Yuwei finally let go of her. Zheng yuluo walked up slowly and picked up the velvet box that Jing Zhi had put on the ground.
The box was opened, and there was a gorgeous pink diamond ne inside.
Pink diamonds were extremely rare. There were dozens of pink diamonds embedded in the ne. Even those who didnt know the value of this ne knew that it was priceless. It was more than enough to buy the Zheng familys Vi.
Zheng yuluos position in Jing Zhis heart was obvious.
The colorful gold ne that Deng kun had spent a lot of money to buy had fallen into the dust.
Jing Zhis coat was also on the ground.
Jing Rui was in a hurry to take Jing Zhi to the hospital, so he left Jing Zhis coat in the yard. Jin Xin didnt care about the coat, as he was more concerned about Jing Zhis health.
Zheng yuluo reached out to pick up his clothes and held them in her arms.
Zheng Yuwei was afraid that Jing Zhis clothes were stained with blood, so she ran over to check.
But as soon as her fingers touched Jing Zhis clothes, Zheng yuluo screamed,Dont touch his things! Go away!
Zheng Yuwei was shocked and quickly retracted her hand.That Sister, Im not trying to snatch him from you. Im just afraid that his clothes will be stained with blood. You heard it just now, his blood is poisonous.
You dont need to care!
Zheng yuluo held the box and clothes, ignoring the gazes of her parents and the Deng family, and returned to her room with tears in her eyes.
Zheng yuluo didnt care how Zheng Jing would exin to the Deng family.
Right now, her entire being was in pain and chaos.
The family members obviously knew Jing Zhi, or they wouldnt have changed their expressions when Jing Zhi came.
They even knew that Jing Zhis blood was poisonous.
And why did she not know anything?
Jing Zhi hade to celebrate her birthday with her, but what he saw was her family and the Deng familyughing and talking.
His face was as pale as a sheet of paper, and he looked like he was terminally ill. Clearly, he was not lying about being hospitalized.
Zheng yuluo buried her face in Jing Zhis clothes and started crying.
She hated herself!
Todays situation could have been avoided!
Zheng yuluo had been crying in the room for a long time. Her eyes werepletely swollen and her voice was hoarse.
Jing Zhis coffee-colored coat was soaked by Zheng yuluos tears, and it was stained with circles of tear marks.
Zheng yuluo wiped her tears, carefully smoothed his clothes, and wiped the tears with a tissue.
However, the moment sheid the clothes t on the bed, a certain part of Zheng yuluos mind exploded!
This coat was exactly the same size as the grey coat that she had been keeping for more than a year!
She had touched that dress so many times that even with her eyes closed, she could still describe it without a single mistake!
Zheng yuluos fingers trembled as she looked at the LOGO on the cor of the coffee-colored shirt.
Burberry!
It was from the same brand as the grey coat!
The size was also exactly the same!
Zheng yuluo copsed to the ground.
How was this possible?
Jing Zhi was so thin that he must be fat in this size.
She had always felt that Deng kun was the most suitable person to wear that dress!
That was the reason why she was willing to date Deng kun!
Zheng yuluo sat on the ground in a daze, as if she had lost her soul.
Everything seemed to have an exnation.
The first time they met was at a bar. He had appeared quietly by her side and told her to drink less.
Then, she was robbed outside, and he descended from the sky to save her.
Then, she was safely sent home in a state ofplete loss of consciousness.
He had never told her his name or what he did for a living. She had only told him her name, but he knew everything about her!
Everyone in the bar knew that he had created a cocktail called first love for his first love. He didnt get close to women and rejected anyone who tried to hit on him. He only talked to her.
No wonder Jing Zhi always appeared in front of her whenever she went to a bar.
Perhaps he had always been there, but she just didnt know.
Jin Xin had said that the bar had been opened for her, and waiting meant that he had been waiting for her.
It was only today that Zheng yuluo finally understood the true meaning of waiting!
She had originally wondered how a man who was so devoted to his first love could fall in love with her so quickly.
So, she was his first love!
For the past year, the only person she hadpletely forgotten about was Jing Zhi.
He had given her that box of diamonds worth tens of millions!
The voice that she had dreamed of countless times in her dreams was also Jing Zhi s.
Yes, the voice in the dream was so simr to him when he was angry!
Why, why did she only understand it today!
Why was it that even though she knew his name and knew that he was the one she had forgotten, she still couldnt remember what had happened in the past!
Although her reunion with Jing Zhi was short, Zheng yuluo knew how much Jing Zhi loved her.
He had never forgotten her. He had always been waiting for her!
But she had forgotten about Jing Zhi. She was in a rtionship with someone else, and she was about to get married.
This was cruel to Jing Zhi.
In a daze, Zheng yuluo suddenly remembered some scenes from the past year.
She seemed to have run into Jing Zhi many times by ident, but she had never paid much attention to it.
He was always wearing a hat, so her face couldnt be seen clearly. Every time they passed by each other, Zheng yuluo had always treated him as an insignificant passerby.
In the quiet vi of the Zheng family, Zheng yuluos sobs echoed throughout the night.
Her heart-wrenching sobs made the three people in the living room feel heavy-hearted.
Dad, I think we cant hide it from my sister anymore. Lets just tell her the truth!
Zheng Yuwei was extremely upset. She was Zheng yuluos twin. When Zheng yuluo was in so much pain that she wished she was dead, she felt that her heart was also torn apart.
She even felt that she was the one who was crying.
Thats right, we shouldnt hide it from luoluo. Otherwise, when she reminisces about the past, shell hate us. Im heartbroken that shes crying like this!
Zheng Lun sat on the sofa and kept wiping her tears. She was the most emotional one. There were several times when she wanted to go upstairs tofort her daughter, but she didnt dare to, for fear of annoying her.
Zheng Jing looked at his wife and daughter and sighed heavily.I also feel bad for luoluo, but I cant let her be with Jing Zhi. If I tell her the truth, shell definitely follow Jing Zhi. Im really worried about Jing Zhis body.
Dad, I saw Jing Rui wipe off Jing Zhis blood tonight. Isnt he fine? Arent you Exaggerating a little?
What do you know! Jing Rui had already been infected by him and had survived by luck. He was not afraid because he had the virus in his body. If you see Jing Zhi in the future, you must stay away from him, or youll really die.
Zheng Jing had told Zheng Yuwei this countless times since they were little. That was why she and Zheng yuluo had been staying away from Jing Zhi and never yed with him.
Zheng Yuwei had never doubted her fathers words before, but today, she was a little suspicious.
Jing Zhis family and friends didnt seem to have died because they were close to him.
Dad, even if we keep it a secret from my sister, do you think she can still marry Deng kun? Look at her, she has forgotten everything, but she still fell in love with Jing Zhi. I dont know what shes thinking about, crying like this!
Zheng Yuwei didnt like Jing Zhi either. She thought he was violent, bloody, and had a bad temper. He always made Zheng yuluo cry. He wasnt a good man.
However, Zheng yuluo was crying so hard that her firm heart wavered.
Moreover, Jing Zhi was the biggest contributor to Zheng yuluos recovery.
No one knew about this. It was the heaviest secret she had kept in her heart.
At that time, Zheng Yuwei didnt dare to admit that Jing Zhi had visited her sister. But now, there was nothing to hide.
She told her parents everything that had happened and finally said,Didnt my sister say that she had a diamond worth more than ten million? It was probably then that Jing Zhi gave it to her.
Just send the diamond back to him! Even if Jing Zhi was the one who helped your sister wake up, he was the one who caused her to fall into aa. Your sister entered the entertainment industry because of him! Yuluo couldnt see Jing Zhi anymore, so she wanted tomit suicide and drowned!
Zheng Jings face darkened and his voice was full of anger when he thought of the dangerous situation that Zheng yuluo had been in.
Do you want your sister to repeat the same mistake?
Zheng Yuwei hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head.
The whole family didnt want to tell Zheng yuluo about their rtionship because they were afraid that she would go to Jing Zhi. They were afraid that she would love Jing Zhi so much that she wouldnt even want her life anymore.
The family meeting finally reached an agreement. He would not tell Zheng yuluo about the past and hide it for as long as he could.
The sky was getting brighter, but the whole family did not sleep the whole night.
Jing Rui and the others also stayed up all night.

Jing Zhi was in critical condition. Mu Sen, Shuyin, and even a group of top doctors from family MUs Hospital, Mu Qing, were all involved in the rescue work.
Jing Rui didnt even bother to be angry at Jing Zhi for knocking Shuyin out. He ran out of the hospital on his own, hoping that Jing Zhineng was fine.
He went straight to family MUs Hospital after receiving Jin Xins message. He was both distressed and angry when he saw Shuyin lying on the ground. At that time, he had wanted to leave Jing Zhi alone.
Unfortunately, he couldnt just leave Jing Zhi to his own devices. He would be asking for death if he went out in his current condition.
Jing Rui was afraid that he would suffer in the Zheng family, so he went to the Zheng family without waiting for Shuyin to wake up and took Jing Zhi back to the hospital.
Fortunately, Jing Zhi was gentle and Shu Yin and mu Sen woke up quickly. Otherwise, who would have saved him?
Resuscitation work was very tiring and Jing Zhis body was special, so no one was very confident. They could only brainstorm and use all the ways to save their lives.
Jing Rui and Jin Xin were waiting outside the emergency room. He noticed the blood stains on Jin Xins clothes and frowned.Jin, the blood on your clothes is Jing Zhi s, right?
I think so. If you didnt mention it, I wouldnt have noticed, Jin Xin said as he lowered his head to take a look.
Go to theb immediately and let Peter draw a blood sample for testing!
Youre afraid Ill get infected, right?
Itll be fine, Jin Xin said with a smile.Ive tried it many times. As long as Jing Zhis blood doesnt enter the human body, he wont be in any danger.
He had followed Jing Zhi to North America to kill and Rob people. Jing Zhi had been shot and injured countless times, and Jin Xin had even bandaged his wounds, but he had always been fine.
Ive noticed that if Jing Zhis blood identally gets into his eyes, hell lose his sight very quickly and die. However, if it stters on undamaged skin, itll be fine. Human skins defense is pretty good.
Jin Xin had been living with Jing Zhi for a long time, and they had been together almost every day, so he wasnt afraid of him at all.
He asked curiously,I heard Jing Zhi mention that you were also infected with the virus, but you survived. Why did everyone else die? Is there a trick to it?
Jing Rui had investigated Jin Xin thoroughly when he had first met Jing Zhi. He had yed an important role in Jing Zhis life, and Jing Rui trusted him.
Therefore, he didnt hide anything and told the truth.The trick is that Im rted to Jing Zhi by blood. Our genes are simr, so I can withstand the virus in his body.
Fine, your trick cant be copied! I thought you had some big secret that could save your life, but it turns out that you are rted by blood.
Jin Xin looked at the emergency room and asked Jing Rui softly,Do you think Jing Zhi will be alright? When I first found out about his bodys Secret, he even bragged to me about his immortality! I thought he was bragging when he said he could live for a few hundred years!
Everything will be fine! Jing Rui said calmly and firmly.
Yes, the top doctors are all here! Hell definitely wake up when the sun rises!
However, Jing Zhi didnt wake up at dawn.
Jing Zhi didnt wake up until the sky turned dark again.
But the door of the emergency room finally opened. Shuyin walked out and said,Im fine. Then she fainted in Jing Ruis arms.
Jing Rui caught her in a hurry and shouted,doctor!
Seeing Mu Qinging out of the emergency room, he said at once,Uncle, Yinyin has fainted! Quickly take a look at her!
It was not easy to hear Jing Rui call him uncle. Mu Qing stepped forward and took Shuyins wrist to check her pulse.
A momentter, he let go and said tiredly,Shes fine. Shes just too tired. Shell be fine after some rest.
Jing Rui heaved a sigh of relief, and then Mu Qing said,However, thats not the main reason she fainted. The main reason is that shes pregnant.
What?
Jing Rui could not believe his ears.
Uncle, youre not too tired, are you? did you make a mistake?
Mu Qing red at Jing Rui. He couldnt stand anyone questioning his medical skills. He had even quarreled with Jing Yichen when he questioned his medical skills.
Ive been a doctor for so many years and I cant even see a pregnancy correctly. Do you think this hospital can still continue to operate? Thats right, your wife is pregnant! Without a doubt! Of course, I dont know if its yours or not!
Its definitely mine! How could it not be mine!
Jing Rui retorted Mu Qing angrily, and then he was overjoyed.
Shuyin was actually pregnant!
Oh my God, Im not dreaming, right?
He carefully carried Shuyin in his arms, afraid that she would be hurt.
Jin Xin leaned over and smiled.Master Jing, congrattions! Youre going to be a father!
Jing Rui still felt that it was not real. Shuyin had been researching about his infertility for a long time. How could she be pregnant?
When did this happen?
He didnt even notice it!
Was he going to be a father?
Jing Ruis face was full of smiles, and he answered Jin Xin helplessly,Oh, oh, same to you!
After Mu Qing left, Jing Rui was still standing there with Shuyin in his arms.
When he saw mu Sening out of the emergency room, he immediately stopped him.Yinyin has fainted. Quickly take her pulse!
Mu Sen had been resuscitating Jing Zhi for a day and a night and was already exhausted. But when he saw that Shuyin had fainted, he immediately went to check her pulse with a serious expression.
A momentter, a smile appeared on his tired face.Cousin brother, my cousin-inw is pregnant. Shes carrying a child and has been working hard, so she fainted from exhaustion. Its alright, Ill be fine after a bit of recuperation!
In the past, Jing Rui would have ignored mu Sen if he had called him cousin. But he was so happy today that he blurted out,Cousin, quickly give her a prescription to nurse her back to health!
This cousin made mu Sen feel ttered! He was so shocked that he forgot about his fatigue and quickly said,Dont worry, cousin brother. Ill definitely nurse cousin-inw back to health, so that both the child and the adult will be healthy!
Good, you are a good doctor! Jing Rui said.
After that, he carried Shuyin and left the vicinity of the emergency room with steady steps. He sent her to the general ward to lie down.
Mu Sen and Jin Xin, the two single men, were stunned. They could not understand Jing Ruis sudden change. He had never been so enthusiastic before.
Was he that happy that his wife was pregnant?
Single dogs didnt understand the feeling of being a father, but why did he feel a little pitiful?

Mu Sen shook his head helplessly and said to Jin Xin,Jing Zhis condition has stabilized, thanks to Shuyin. She knows Jing Zhis body very well. The nurse will send him to the intensive care unit in a while. Look after him and dont let him run away again. Im going to sleep for an hour.
Jin Xin smiled wryly. If Jing Zhi really wanted to run, no one would be able to stop him.
But judging from the situation, Jing Zhi probably didnt have the strength to run out of the hospital this time.
Moreover, Zheng yuluo had deeply hurt Jing Zhis heart, so he had no reason to run out again.
Im here. You should go and rest!
Jin Xin and Peter were watching over Jing Zhi in the intensive care unit, keeping an eye on his situation. Jing Rui was also by Shuyins side, not leaving her at all.
He knew that Jing Zhi wouldnt die, so he didnt care about him anymore.
His younger brother was so disappointing and always caused trouble. His soul was also taken away by a woman. His wife and child were more important. After all, Shuyin was loyal to him. She had fainted because she had saved Jing Zhi.
Shuyin slept, but because she was worried about Jing Zhis health, she couldnt sleep well.
After resting for two hours, she suddenly woke up.
Shuyin sat up immediately, which startled Jing Rui. He sounded surprised.Yinyin, youre awake!
Shuyin was at a loss for a moment, not understanding where she was.
She remembered that she had been in the emergency room trying to save Jing Zhi.
Wheres Jing Zhi? Is he alright?
Hes fine.
Jing Rui held Shuyins hand tightly, sat on the edge of the bed, and took her into his arms.
Shuyin enjoyed Jing Ruis embrace and pampering. She leaned her face against Jing Ruis chest out of habit, and her mind gradually cleared up.Oh, I remember now. Jing Zhis condition has stabilized. His bodys indicators have finally returned to normal. Its not easy!
Yes, Yinyin, youve worked hard! If he seeks death again in the future, we wont care about him!
Shuyin burst intoughter. She didnt believe that Jing Rui would really leave Jing Zhi alone. He always said that he was ruthless, but in fact, he was soft-hearted and couldnt bear to see Jing Zhi being bullied or hurt.
What am I doing in the ward? You sent me here?
Jing Rui rested his chin on Shuyins head and said softly,You were too tired and fainted, so I carried you to the ward. I thought you would only wake up tomorrow. I didnt expect you to wake up so soon. Ive been worried about you, but Im relieved to see you awake.
Shuyin chuckled.Im in good health. Maybe Im just too tired these past few days. As a doctor, its normal for a surgery to take more than ten hours. I can only be considered half a doctor, so Im not qualified!
Who said that? youre an excellent doctor! And shell be an excellent mother in the future!
Then we have to have a child first!
Jing Ruis eyes were full of joy. He reached out and touched Shuyins belly gently. Thats right. We have a child. Yinyin, youre pregnant!
Shu Yin was stunned for a moment. She immediately looked up from Jing Ruis arms and stared into his eyes.What did you just say? Say that again!
Her disbelieving expression was exactly the same as how he felt when he first found out that Shuyin was pregnant!
Jing Rui smiled brightly.Baby, you did not hear wrong. You are pregnant! We have a child!
He had been excited for more than two hours, and now he could finally share this good news with Shuyin!
Shuyin subconsciously touched her stomach.Really? Dont lie to me, or Ill take it for real!
Of course, Im not lying to you. Youre pregnant! And just now, mu Sen came to check your pulse again. He said that the child is already two months old and is very good in all aspects!
I Oh my God! I feel like Im dreaming!
Shuyin blinked, looked at her stomach, and then at Jing Rui, her face full of surprise.But Ive studied it for so long, and the results show that we cant get pregnant! Could mu Sen have made a mistake? Lets do an ultrasound first and see what happens!
Jing Ruiughed. He caressed Shuyins hair and held her carefully. He said in a loving tone,Yes, an ultrasound must be done, but mu Sen cant be wrong. Dean mu has also checked on you and said that youre pregnant. The MU familys Chinese medicine has been passed down for a long time and is well-known throughout the country. If they were both wrong, the ancestor of the MU family would probably crawl out of his grave and take away his unfilial offspring!
Of course, Shuyin knew that the MU family had superb medical skills. Mu Qing and mu Sen were both inheritors, and they had a wide range of knowledge and excellent medical skills.
However, before she saw the real test report, she still felt that it was unreal.
Lets go and do an ultrasound now!
Shuyin was about to get off the bed, but Jing Rui hugged her.
The doctors in the ultrasound room have already gotten off work, so its the same to check tomorrow! Have a good rest tonight, Ill serve you.
No, I know how to use those machines too. I cant wait a minute. Lets get the door card to the ultrasound room from mu Sen. Ill do the ultrasound myself!
Jing Rui was helpless. With an all-rounded wife, all the problems were not problems.
He got out of bed and wanted to carry Shuyin down, but she jumped down nimbly herself.
Yinyin, youre pregnant now. You cant make such big movements!
Jing Rui was so scared that he quickly held her and lowered his head to help her put on her shoes.
Take it easy, youre not alone now!
Shuyin wasnt used to being pregnant yet, so she smiled helplessly.I dont think shes so delicate. I remember that when some female doctors were pregnant at the Research Institute, they still did research and worked. The babies that were left were all very smart!
Thats different! They had no other choice but to work so hard. Youd better rest at home while youre pregnant. Ill take care of you. Dont work in the hospital. What if youre exhausted?
Jing Rui regarded Shuyin as the most fragile porcin and did not want her to go to work.
The children of the female doctors in the Research Institute were smart, not because of their work, but because they were a group of people with high IQs. Their fathers were usually geniuses in the Research Institute. If both parents were smart, how stupid could their children be?
Our children must be very smart too! Yinyin, he definitely looks like you!
Shuyin felt that being pregnant was really magical. Was there a little life in her stomach now?
She smiled and said as she walked out with Jing Rui,It would be great if we had twins. One would look like you and the other would look like me!
Its too hard to be pregnant with two, one is enough!

Chapter 1359: An all-rounded wife
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui was very satisfied. The chances of them getting pregnant were so low that it was almost negligible. He had not expected to have one so soon. He was already very satisfied with just one child.
He had never liked twins, like the twin sisters of the Zheng family.
The couple asked for an ess card from mu Sen and went to the ultrasound room. Shuyin taught Jing Rui how to use it, theny on the examination bed and began to do the ultrasound.
The results proved that Shuyin was indeed pregnant.
Shey there and cried happily.Oh my God, hubby, I have a baby!
Jing Rui covered her belly, hugged her and kept kissing her.Yes, I have a baby! Its all my fault. Otherwise, you would have gotten pregnant a long time ago.
Shuyin rarely called him hubby. Usually, she would only call him hubby as a reward when she wanted to order him to do work.
She was so happy today that she couldnt help but call him hubby.
Shuyin sobbed, but stopped abruptly after a while.Will it be bad for the baby if I cry like this? Will it affect his development?
Jing Ruis heart softened. Shuyin specialized in gic research and had a profound knowledge about the growth and development of fetuses. But now, she was in a mess and had forgotten everything she had learned. All she could think about was the child.
Its fine. Youre just crying tears of joy. If the child knew that his mother was so happy, he would be happy too.
Jing Rui carried Shuyin off the bed and all the way to the ward, not even willing to let her walk.
Shuyin cried andughed. She pulled on Jing Ruis sleeve andy on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
He didnt even know that she was pregnant and didnt have any reaction.
Her period had been irregr for the past six months, because she had made several kinds of medicine and used them on herself and Jing Rui in secret in order to get pregnant.
The drugs had caused her to have an endocrine disorder. Every time she saw Jing Rui, she wanted to throw herself on him.
Of course, Jing Rui was also very brave under the influence of her medicine.
It seemed that the medicine had taken effect!
Shuyin was so happy that she whispered to Jing Rui in his arms. She didnt fall asleep until dawn.
Jing Rui stayed by her side and only sent Han Feng to keep an eye on Jing Zhi, so that he would not run away again.
Jing Zhi woke up at noon.
He opened his eyes and saw that he was in the intensive care unit again. He smiled bitterly.
The scene before he fainted appeared in his mind, making him feel that it was somewhat unreal.
Jing Zhi had never expected that Zheng yuluo, who had broken up with Deng kun so resolutely at the engagement banquet, would have a lively dinner with the Deng family and celebrate her birthday as usual.
Shouldnt they stop contacting each other after breaking up?
If you still have an ambiguous rtionship with your ex-boyfriend after breaking up, thats not breaking up. Thats just quarreling.
She had never heard of anyone celebrating their birthday with their ex-boyfriend after breaking up.
The moment he saw Zheng yuluo and Deng kun eating the birthday cake together, the moment he saw the two families having a good time together, Jing Zhi felt that he was extra.
He should not have thought of snatching Zheng yuluo back, and Zheng yuluo should not have given him any hope.
If there was no hope, he wouldnt be in such despair now.
Perhaps he could still use the mentality of having a crush on Zheng yuluo and silently watch her get married and have children.
Mu Sen walked into the intensive care unit in a sterile suit. He saw Jing Zhis empty and numb eyes and asked,Youre awake? How does your body feel? Do you want to go out and court death again?
For the first time in his life, Jing Zhi felt that the word courting death suited him.
Just by looking at the tubes all over his body, one could tell how bad his condition was.
He did not need to guess to know that he had been pulled back from the edge of death by mu Sen and the others.
Thank you, he said.
Jing Zhi thanked him, but mu Sen did not appreciate it at all.
Yo, did the sun rise from the West today? You also know how to thank me? Why were you so cruel when you knocked me out?
Mu Sen changed the medicine for Jing Zhi and touched the back of his neck. He said angrily, Yourepletely repaying kindness with enmity! Donte to our hospital for treatment in the future, or my neck will be cut off by you! Jing Rui even went to the Zheng family to carry you back. I think he should have left you at the Zheng family and let you go with Zheng yuluo!
Did my brother take me back to the hospital? Jing Zhi asked, surprised.
Exactly! His heart was soft. You even knocked out his wife, and he actually went to the Zheng family to save you without Gu Shuyin, who was still in aa in the hospital! After saving you, Shuyin was pregnant and was busy trying to save you. In the end, she stood there for more than ten hours without eating or drinking. The child in her stomach protested and she fainted! Hes so unlucky to have a brother like you!
Pregnant? Shuyin?
Jing Zhi was surprised. He tried to sit up, but his body was in pain and he had no strength to do so.
What are you doing? Lie down and dont move!
Let me ask you, is Shuyin really pregnant? This is impossible!
Mu Sen rolled his eyes at him and said,How do you know if its possible or not for the couple? Youre making it seem as if Shuyin is your wife! She was busy saving your life when she was pregnant, but you knocked her out and ran away! If it was me, I would have skinned you alive!
Its impossible for Shuyin to be pregnant!Jing Zhi still didnt believe her.
AI, what do you want me to say about you? are you still human? It doesnt matter if Shuyin is pregnant or not, its wrong to knock her out! Of course, it was a serious mistake to knock me out! Your brother is busy taking care of the pregnant woman now. When the pregnant womans condition stabilizes, lets see how hell deal with you!
Jing Zhi shuddered. He felt that he was done for this time.
Jing Rui wouldnt have let him off even if Shuyin wasnt pregnant. Now that Shuyin was pregnant, Jing Rui was probably going to be mad at him for knocking her out.
But he had no idea that Shuyin was pregnant!
If he had known, how could he have knocked Shuyin unconscious!
But how did Shuyin get pregnant?
Both he and his brother had the same virus, and the Research Institute had already concluded that he would not be able to have children. Why could Jing Rui have?
Jing Zhi was excited, as if he had seen a ray of light.
Did he get his virus cured again?
Jing Zhi thought about it and scratched his head, trying to figure it out. But he did not dare to see Jing Rui or Shuyin at the moment. He was so anxious that he had forgotten about the pain in his body.
Jing Zhi waited for the whole afternoon, but he didnt see anyone except for mu Sen and Jin Xin.
He was a little dejected. It seemed that his brother was really angry this time. He didnt evene to see him, nor did he let Shuyine to see him.
Chapter 1360
Chapter 1360: Dawn
Trantor: 549690339
In the evening, the colorful clouds on the horizon were dazzling, and the entire white intensive care unit was illuminated with colors.
Jing Zhi was lying on the bed, Jin Xin slightly propping up his pillow. He stared nkly at the beautiful red clouds outside the window.
What are you thinking? He still missed Zheng yuluo! Cant you be a little more mature? is she the only woman in the world?
Jin Xin sat on the chair in front of his bed, sighing in a resentful tone.
Your brother didnt dare to tell your parents about your physical condition. Otherwise, do you think your parents would agree to you marrying Zheng Yu when they see you half-dead?
We were doing so well in the entertainment industry back then. You were a big star and I was a gold manager. Just because Zheng yuluo had an affair, you left the entertainment industry. I still cant figure it out!
Dont talk about it anymore. Its all in the past,Jing Zhi said indifferently.
You wont like Zheng yuluo anymore, will you?
Yes, I dont like it anymore, Jing Zhi finally said after a long silence.
Thats great!
Jin Xin couldnt help but apud,shes outside right now, Ill drive her away! Our Prince Charming doesnt want this kind of woman anymore!
Jing Zhi frowned and asked,shes here? When did you arrive?
Theyre here! No one told her that you were here, and I dont know how she found out. Do you think shes reminiscing about the past?
Let her in!
You just said that you dont like her anymore! Jing Zhi, a man cant go back on his word!
I didnt say anything just now, you heard wrong!
Jin Xin was dumbfounded. This man always had no bottom line when he met Zheng yuluo!
Zheng yuluo had actually been waiting outside for a long time. Jin Xin really didnt like her, so he didnt let her in.
Moreover, Jing Rui had sent Han Feng to guard the ce. Han Feng did not like Zheng yuluo, so he did not let her in.
Just a moment ago, Jin Xin had been sighing outside,a woman who can make everyone hate her is really not something that ordinary people can do!
But Jing Zhi liked it.
I can agree to let Zheng yuluo in, but the door God sent by your brother may not agree. Hes strictly following your brothers orders and forbade you from meeting Zheng yuluo, in case you vomit blood and fall unconscious because of her, just like that night.
Jing Zhi didnt know that Han Feng had been waiting outside the whole time. He was like a zombie now. He couldnt move or turn his head, in case the needle in his head was crooked. If that happened, mu Sen would have to re-insert it and he would have to suffer again.
You think of a way to lure the cold wind away and let Zheng yuluo in!
Jin Xins mouth was wide open,you make it sound so easy. Do you think Han Feng is an idiot? Although he is Jing Ruis follower, he is very smart and powerful. I cant lie to him.
As the two of them were talking, the door of the intensive care unit was opened, and Zheng yuluo slowly walked in.
How did you get in? Jin Xin was taken aback. Wheres Han Feng?
I went to beg Jing Rui. He let me in.
Zheng yuluo stood by Jing Zhis bed, looking as weak as ever.
In fact, Jing Rui didnt agree to let her visit Jing Zhi, but he agreed after Shuyin helped her.
Since Jing Rui had agreed, Jin Xin did not try to stop him. It was useless anyway.
He walked out of the ward and gave Jing Zhi and Huo Mian some space.
Jing Zhi saw Zheng yuluos pale face, haggardness, and reddened eyes. He was upset, but he kept a calm face.Take a seat. I cant entertain you in this state. Help yourself.
Zheng yuluo did not sit.
She looked at Jing Zhi in disbelief, who was covered in tubes. Her eyes were red as she asked him,Whats your illness? Why didnt you tell me earlier?
Only the characters in the movies who were on the verge of death would look like this!
Its fine, itll be fine after a while. Its just a small problem. However, Im an infectious disease, so its safer for you to stay away from me.
Im not afraid,Zheng yuluo said softly.
After that, the two of them didnt know what to say.
The intensive care unit was silent. Only the beeping sound of the equipment attached to Jing Zhis body could be heard.
When he was silent, the pressure he gave off was the greatest.
Zheng yuluos psychological quality was poor, and she was the first to be unable to bear this kind of pressure.
We knew each other before, right?
Yes, weve known each other since the first day we were born.
Jing Zhi didnt try to hide it anymore. He closed his eyes to hide the pain and sorrow in them.
Zheng yuluo was the cmity in his life. If he could get over it, he could save his life. If he could not, he would die.
Were we Close in the past?
Zheng yuluo wanted to know everything about the past, but her parents wouldnt say a word. She could only ask Jing Zhi.
Our rtionship is sometimes good and sometimes bad, but its not good most of the time.
Jing Zhi opened his eyes slowly and asked her in a slow voice,Zheng yuluo, you still havent thought of me, have you?
Zheng yuluo was a little helpless. She stuttered,Im sorry, I I I dont remember
Okay, then you dont have to ask anymore. If you cant remember, its useless to know about the past. Why dont you forget everything and go back to live a good life?
Im not going back!
Zheng yuluo cried.I want to know what happened in the past. Why did I forget about you? I remember everyone else, but I dont remember you! There must be a reason! You should have told me!
I want to know more than you, why did you forget about me!
Jing Zhis voice suddenly sounded angry. He looked at Zheng yuluo coldly and said,Ive been thinking about this question hundreds of times every day! How could you be so cruel? how could you forget everything about us and fall in love with another man?
I didnt want to date him, my family forced me to!
Ha, thats what Ive beenforting myself with every day. I can only keep telling myself that you were forced and that you didnt do it willingly. Only then will I feel less disappointed.
Jing Zhis eyes reddened as he spoke. Tears welled up in his eyes, and his voice grew softer.
But on your birthday, I finally found out that you werent forced to do this. You did it willingly! Even if Deng kun went to your house, you could have driven him away! If you cant drive him away, then you can at least ignore him and not have an intimate meal with him, right?
I do like you, I like you so much that I dont care about anything else. But theres one thing I care about. I cant stand you dating another man while were dating! Youre insulting my love for you!
Zheng yuluo shouted,Im not in a rtionship with Deng kun! Ive broken up with him!
Chapter 1361
Chapter 1361: Weve known each other before, right?
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo didnt know how to exin it. She didnt expect Jing Zhi to be there on her birthday, and he happened to see that scene.
But she had never liked Deng kun!
Deng kuns family had invited her to celebrate her birthday. How could it have anything to do with her?
My family was happily preparing for my birthday with Weiwei. I couldnt have quarreled with them at that time and ruined Weiweis birthday! Ive always felt guilty that youve injured Deng kun, so I cant drive him away!
Jing Zhi looked at Zheng yuluo in surprise,guilty? What a joke! Is your brain filled with water? He insulted you and even tried to touch you. Ive already hit him lightly! Youre actually telling me that you feel guilty about him?
Jing Zhi almostughed out loud.
So youre saying that in the future, if a man scolds you, hits you, insults you, and bullies you, I should just watch and be indifferent? Zheng yuluo, get out! Go back to that hypocrite Deng kun! One day, you will regret what you said today!
The device that showed Jing Zhis heart rate was rising and soon it reached a critical value. Then the rm rang.
Mu Sen ran in like a bolt of lightning. He looked at the values and started scolding Jing Zhi.You dont want to live? If you dont want your life, then die a quick death! Youve been through the gates of hell countless times, do you think you have nine lives?
Zheng yuluo, get out! This is the intensive care unit, he could die at any time. If you think hes dying too slowly, you can give him a pound of arsenic! Its too slow if you want to anger him to death by quarreling!
Mu Sen had never lost his temper with Zheng yuluo. He was gentle to others, except for Jing Zhi.
However, today, he could no longer be gentle with Zheng yuluo.
No matter how good-tempered a person was, they had their own bottom line.
The entire family MUs Hospital had spent so much manpower and resources, emptying the entire blood bank to save Jing Zhis life. If he was angered to death by Zheng yuluo, mu Sen would be angered to death as well.
If these two people were in a rtionship, it was heaven and earth. Dont drag family MUs Hospital into it!
Mu Sen drove Zheng yuluo out angrily and gave Jing Zhi an injection with a cold face. Seeing that his bodys values were back to normal, he snorted and turned away.
Jing Zhi was not in the mood to talk to mu Sen. He felt pain all over his body, from his skin to his bone marrow, from his brain to the depths of his heart.
In the past, he believed in all his judgments and felt that he was right. Once he set his eyes on a goal, he would bravely move forward.
Other peoples words would not affect him in any way, and would not waver his determination.
But now, he hadpletely changed!
He wanted to be someone that Zheng yuluo liked. He wanted to be gentle and without edges to please her, but everything was not as he wished!
Was it really wrong to hit someone?
Shouldnt people like Deng kun be beaten up?
Did he have to wait for Zheng yuluo to suffer before he pursued the matter?
Or was it not because he was wrong to hit people, but because Zheng yuluo felt sorry for Deng kun and felt that he had hit the wrong person?
Jing Zhis heart ached at the thought of this possibility.
Everything had been fine, but everything had changed because of Deng kuns injury!
For the next few days, Jing Zhi remained silent. He didnt speak or eat. He was so quiet that he didnt seem to exist.
He was clearly able to get out of bed and walk, but he stayed in bed the entire time, not moving at all.
Previously, he had always felt that it was too stuffy and wanted to go out for some fresh air. Now that he could go out for some fresh air, he lost interest.
Mu Sen had prescribed him a nutrient needle and had been giving him an infusion to ensure that his body had enough energy.
A womans power is so great?
Mu Sen looked at Jin Xin, who had been guarding Jing Zhi, in confusion. Jin Xin spread his hands and said, Thats why Ive been single all this time. Ive never let any woman enter my heart.
So, my best choice in the future is to die alone?
Oh, thats not for sure! Look at the brother of a certain love idiot. Hes living a happy life, his wife is beautiful and capable, and hes never pretentious. Now, he even has a child. Hes simply a winner in life!
Thats good. I guess Im much better than that idiot. I wont live like him!
As mu Sen spoke, he pulled out several tubes from Jing Zhis body. The only thing left on Jing Zhi was the needle.
Alright, this person in a vegetative state can be transferred to the general ward!
Jing Zhi couldnt take it anymore and finally reacted. Youre the one in a vegetative state!
Hey, Jin bro, look, this vegetable can talk! My medical skills have improved, and Ive solved a world-ss problem!
Jin Xin was so amused by mu Sen that heughed,Im not going to thank you! After he wakes up, the tens of millions he left with me will be gone. Ill lose a lot!
Jing Zhi wasnt good at managing his finances, and he didnt have the patience to deal with those things. Jin Xin was basically the one who took care of his money.
This was a habit that Jin Xin had developed since he had be his manager.
The two of them transferred Jing Zhi to a normal Ward. He would be discharged after two or three days.
The virus was scary, but it gave Jing Zhi the ability to recover faster than ordinary people.
What gave mu Sen a headache was that Jing Zhi still didnt like to eat.
Being discharged without eating was equivalent to seeking death.
Ill call Zheng yuluo, Jin Xin said to mu Sen mysteriously.Jing Zhi will have dinner as soon as shees!
You still let here?
Mu Sen was a little traumatized by this girl. He said in fear,Its a good thing that she didnt make Jing Zhi vomit blood. How can Jing Zhi eat? Jin bro, dont tease me, its not easy for me to save someone!
Besides, Ive already chased her awayst time. Its not very appropriate to call her back, right?
Whats inappropriate about that? Jin Xin said disapprovingly.A couples fight will end in peace. You dont have to step in. Ill call Zheng yuluo! She was responsible for Jing Zhis current state. Who would care if she didn t? Hes her future husband. If he dies, will she be a widow?
Mu Sen was in awe.Jin bro, youre too open-minded! Youre in favor of Jing Zhi marrying this girl?
As long as Zheng yuluo can cut off all ties with that Deng kun, everything will be fine, right? Youre still too young, this isnt a problem! Who doesnt have a few rtionships when theyre young?
Jin Xin acted as if he had been through this before and called Zheng yuluo triumphantly.
Jin Xin called at Teno clock, and Zheng yuluo arrived at the hospital at eleveno clock.
She walked into Jing Zhis room with a few boxes of packed food.
Jing Zhi thought Jin Xin hade to persuade him to eat again. He opened his eyes, only to see the gentle and beautiful Zheng yuluo.

What are you doing here?
Im here to eat with you.
Zheng yuluos voice was soft. She ced all the lunchboxes on the table and took out a wet tissue from a box on Jing Zhis bedside table.Stretch out your hand.
Jing Zhi didnt move. He didnt know what was going on.
He had quarreled so fiercely with Zheng yuluost time and even scolded her. Why wasnt she angry?
He had thought that she and Deng kun were happily spending their time together!
Zheng yuluo saw that he didnt reach out, so she took the initiative to hold his hand and wiped his hands with a wet tissue.
Her actions were gentle and her fingers were soft. Jing Zhi was reminded of her beauty when they touched his skin.
Even though Jing Zhi was still a little angry, his body was honest. He couldnt help but hold Zheng yuluos hand, not listening to his brain at all.
Why did youe? Youre going to tell me how good you are with Deng kun, and then piss me off?
Zheng yuluo didnt want to cry at first, but the moment Jing Zhi held her hand, her whole heart trembled. Her nose felt sour, and tears fell.
Why are you crying again? When youre with Deng kun, youre always smiling happily. Why do you always cry when youre with me? Am I not as handsome as him or not as rich as him?
Jing Zhis mouth was sharp, but he gently took a new wet tissue and wiped Zheng yuluos tears.
This wet wipe isnt good. Why are you crying more and more?
Zheng yuluo suddenly cried and hugged Jing Zhis neck.Why are you so annoying? cant you just talk to me properly since Im here? I miss you and worry about you every day, but you still misunderstand that Deng kun and I are close! If hes good, why dont I get engaged to him?
Jing Zhi hugged Zheng yuluos waist tightly and raised his voice. He was almost shouting,Did I use to talk like this? When you have me in your heart, can I bear to say half a bad word to hurt you? If you still keep in touch with that Deng kun, Ill say something even worse, do you believe me?
He used his strength and carried Zheng yuluo onto the bed. Then, he turned over and pressed her under him, tearing her clothes.
He was as irritable as a beast. Zheng yuluo was flustered and afraid, and she punched and kicked him.You let me go! Dont touch me!
However, Jing Zhi didnt care about her kicks. He used a little force and tore Zheng yuluos top, revealing her pink underwear.
Zheng yuluo covered her chest in a hurry and bit Jing Zhis arm in desperation.
Jing Zhi stopped in his tracks. Dont bite! Quickly let go!
Zheng yuluo refused to let go, and she bit harder.
Jing Zhi panicked.Listen to me. Let go. My blood is poisonous. Youll die if you bite it.
Zheng yuluo was stunned. She had forgotten that his blood was poisonous.
She let go of Jing Zhi andined, Youve torn my clothes. How am I supposed to leave after this? Were you always like this in the past, tearing your clothes at the slightest disagreement?
Yes, almost.
Jing Zhi pressed Zheng yuluo down and said in a low voice,Every time I tear your clothes, youll wear mine when youe home.
What? Zheng yuluo was stunned and said softly,so thats where the mens clothes in my room came from.
Zheng yuluo, arent you too stupid? Since you still have my clothes at home, didnt you wonder who the owner of the clothes is? Forgetting something doesnt mean that your brain is damaged, right?
I did suspect it! Ive been looking for a man whos suitable for that dress, but Deng kun is the most suitable! Youre so skinny, that dress doesnt fit you!
Jing Zhi didnt bother to exin to Zheng yuluo about his weight loss. His expression was cold.You let that bastard wear my clothes?
No, I didn t!
No! Zheng yuluo quickly denied,I didnt let him wear it. I know hes not the person I forgot! Its just that Im so familiar with that dress that I can tell whos suitable and whos not with one look!
Well, thats more like it.
Get up! Zheng yuluo pushed Jing Zhi away.
He had been too angry just now, so Jing Zhi had calmed down by now. But he didnt get up.
She was already in his mouth, he would be letting himself down if he didnt take a few bites.
Both of Zheng yuluos hands were held by Jing Zhi with one hand, and her chest slipped. She was embarrassed and scared, so she kicked him hard. Youre shameless! Jing Zhi, let me go, I want to go!
However, what embarrassed her the most was that she did not reject it at all!
Was she crazy?!
Jing Zhi didnt bite Zheng yuluo hard. He said in a restrained voice,Ill let you go, but youre not allowed to have any ambiguous rtionship with that Deng kun again! You can either be my woman or be a stranger! I wont ept you seducing me while being intimate with other men!
Zheng yuluo had never felt that she was ambiguous with Deng kun. At most, she had only spoken a few words with Deng kun. She had always rejected physical contact, so how was she close to Deng kun?
She was so angry that her tears kept falling, and she said in a thick nasal voice,You only know how to bully me! Although Deng kun is a yboy, he respects me very much and has never yelled at me or been fierce to me! Cant you learn to be gentler?
Her words were so harsh that Jing Zhi almost died of anger.
Deng kun was not a man of his words. His so-called respect and gentleness were all an act!
If he really encountered a problem, Deng kun would definitely take care of himself and abandon Zheng yuluo without hesitation.
But what about him? Jing Zhi would rather suffer all the grievances and pain than let Zheng yuluo suffer. If only one of the two could live, he would choose to let Zheng yuluo live without hesitation.
After such a long time, Jing Zhis temper had be much more restrained and gentler. He had been working hard to change Zheng yuluos shorings.
However, his anger today was not without reason!
If Zheng yuluo and Deng kun were not so good to him and did not celebrate his birthday with him, how could he be angry?
Jing Zhi let go of Zheng yuluo and got out of bed. He took out a piece of clothing from the bag that Jin Xin had brought him and threw it at Zheng yuluo.You should go and live with Deng kun. Its my fault. I shouldnt have shouted at you.
His tone was calm, as if he was admitting his mistake, but also as if he was speaking in a fit of anger.
Zheng yuluo did not know him well enough to tell the true meaning of his words.
However, she knew that she had said the wrong thing.
Comparing Jing Zhi to Deng kun was just her saying it out of anger. In her heart, they were twopletely different people.
Deng kun could be a friend or even a family member, but Jing Zhi was the only person she could be in love with.
Chapter 1363
Chapter 1363: You only know how to bully me!
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo put on the clothes that Jing Zhi had thrown at her. The moment she put them on, an image suddenly shed in her mind.
She had once worn his clothes like this!
One morning, the room was filled with sunlight. She sat on the white bed sheet and put on hisrge sweater.
The scene shed by, and when Zheng yuluo thought about it again, she could no longer grasp it.
However, she knew that those images were her past memories!
She got off the bed and threw herself into Jing Zhis arms. She hugged his waist and shouted,The person I like has always been you! Ive never liked Deng kun, why dont you believe me?
Jing Zhi didnt hug her. He spoke as gently as he could,Yuluo, I know you like me, but its possible that you like Deng kun too, but you just dont know it. Its okay, I can ept it. Youve been in a rtionship with him for so long, havent I epted it too? Ive already made preparations for you to forget me forever and marry someone else.
However, if youre going to marry someone else, please dont give me any more hope, okay? I dont want to experience that feeling of falling from heaven to hell again.
Zheng yuluo raised her head and said with tears on her face,When did I marry someone else? Dont talk nonsense, Ive already broken up with Deng kun! Cant you just trust me this once? On my birthday, I couldnt even control the situation!
Jing Zhi tried his best to suppress his emotions. Zheng yuluo didnt like him being irritable, and he had been changing.
He had never thought that he would one day be able to do this much for a woman.
He gently tucked Zheng yuluos loose hair behind her ear and said indifferently,Well, dont cry. I have a bad temper, and it may be difficult to change to Deng kuns level, unless the virus in my body disappears and it no longer affects my character. Your father is right. You may not be asfortable as Deng kun when youre with me. Go home, he wont be happy if youe to find me.
He did not get angry this time, but Zheng yuluo would rather he get angry.
When he was angry, Zheng yuluo could clearly feel his love. When he was calm, Zheng yuluo felt insecure, as if she was just a stranger in front of Jing Zhi.
In the end, Zheng yuluo was still driven away by Jing Zhi. Jin Xin couldnt help but feel a headache when he saw Zheng yuluo leave in tears.
Jing Zhis personality was wed, but Zheng yuluos personality didnt seem to be any better!
Jing Zhi had been trying hard to ovee the brutal emotions brought by the virus and had been changing, but Zheng yuluo had been making no progress.
Jin Xin walked into the ward helplessly, trying to persuade Jing Zhi to eat something.
However, before he could say anything, Jing Zhi picked up his chopsticks and started eating the food Zheng yuluo had brought for him.
Jin Xin was stunned. It seemed that Zheng yuluo was still useful. She had left and Jing Zhi had been angered by her, but he could still eat so calmly.
After Jing Zhi finished his meal, he picked up the clothes Jin Xin had brought him and said, Lets go,he said.
Where are you going now? Youre not staying in the hospital?
Im discharged. Lets go home.
Jing Zhi strode away, and Jin Xin hurried to mu Sens office.
Mu Sen, Jing Zhi wants to be discharged!
Oh.
Mu Sen did not seem to be surprised at all. He took out a few paper bags from his cab with a calm face.Here, these are the new clothes that Jing Rui bought for the idiot.
Jin Xin took the clothes and said in surprise,Youre just going to let Jing Zhi go? Arent you going to drag him back?
Mu Senughed,hes only recovered half of his strength, but he can easily beat ten of me. I dont dare to pull him. Dont worry, Ill go to your ce every day to give him injections and supervise his eating and medicine. Jing Rui just bought us a batch of the most advanced medical equipment. I have to take good care of his brother!
Oh my, this is really my brother! I thought Jing Rui was angry and didnt care about Jing Zhi anymore.
Jin Xin felt relieved, and left with his clothes.
For the next week, mu Sen reported to Jing Zhis Vi every day. Jing Zhisplexion was much better.
Zheng yuluos life seemed to have returned to the past.
After Deng kun disappeared for a few days, he soon reappeared again. Every day, he would go to her for lunch at noon and return to the Zheng family with her after work at night. They talked andughed with the Zheng family and had dinner together.
The only difference was that Zheng yuluo refused to go out for a walk at night. After dinner, she locked herself in her room and did not open the door no matter who asked.
In this way, Deng kun waspletely free. He left the Zheng family after eating and then hung out with Chen Yiqian.
Deng kun had been worried that family Jing would cause him trouble, but nothing had happened.
He felt that the Jing n was nothing more than this. The people of the world had praised the Jing n too highly and boasted too much, so they had turned into demons.
He hadnt seen Zheng yuluo at the bar recently, and Jing Zhi didnt have any intention of looking for her. He thought Jing Zhi was tired of ying with her, and he was so jealous.
Zheng yuluo was always so cold to him, and Deng kun could no longer pretend.
He felt that he would go crazy if he continued to endure!
Jing Zhi must have toyed with Zheng yuluo already, so it didnt matter if he toyed with her again.
However, at this point, Deng kun would never marry Zheng yuluo again.
He just wanted to y with it and then throw it away. He was extremely indignant that he had yet to obtain Zheng yuluos body!
Every time Chen Yiqian had sex with him, she would constantly encourage him to get together with Zheng yuluo. Moreover, she woulde up with a brilliant idea for him. Deng kun was tempted.
A few dayster, Jing Zhis Bar was smashed by a bunch of hooligans. They even spread the news that the waiting bar sold fake wine and gathered people for sex. They even attracted the police.
Zheng yuluo was shocked and angry. She drove to the bar that night.
The waiting bar was no longer as glorious as it used to be. The neon lights were all smashed, and the windows were all smashed. From the outside, one could see that the inside was in a state of ruin. Broken ss was everywhere, and the beautiful and luxurious leather sofa had also been cut with a knife.
The word waiting hanging high outside the door was no longer lit up. Several of the letters had been destroyed.
Zheng yuluo felt terrible in her heart, but before she could cry, she was hit hard on the back of her head.
Zheng yuluos vision turned ck as she fainted from the intense pain.
Jing Zhi was the first to know that the bar had been destroyed.
If someone dared to provoke him, that person must be tired of living.
There were surveince cameras both inside and outside the bar. As long as they checked the surveince videos, they would be able to find out who the hooligans were.
However, before Jing Zhi could check the surveince cameras, he received a call from a hidden numberte at night.
Mr. Jing, I have thetest news about Zheng yuluo. Do you want to hear it?
Chapter 1364
Chapter 1364: Kidnapping
Trantor: 549690339
The voice on the phone had been modified by a voice changer, so it sounded very mechanical.
Jing Zhi frowned and said coldly,dont y tricks. Whats wrong with Zheng yuluo?!
Do you want to hear the news? Hahaha, give me a million first and Ill tell you!
The other party was demanding an exorbitant price. He didnt say anything useful and just asked for a million.
Jing Zhi didnt even hesitate. He said coldly, Whats your ount number?
Aiyo, youre indeed rich and overbearing! So straightforward! It seems like youre very interested in that shameless woman!
The person on the phone gave him an ount number. Jing Zhi turned to Jin Xin and said,Transfer a million to her immediately!
Jin Xin was dumbfounded,youre too gullible! Hes giving them a million just like that? Did your moneye from the wind?
Shut up! Transfer the money!
Alright, alright, alright, lets fight. The money is yours anyway. You can spend it however you want.
Seeing Jing Zhis expression change, Jin Xin immediately turned on his phone and transferred the money to him.
It was obvious that the other party had received the money, and theyughed out loud.
Jing Zhi immediately asked,tell me what happened to Zheng yuluo! Dont y any tricks, or youll have the life to take the money, but not the life to spend it!
Nothing, its just that she might be yed to death soon!
Who is it? Where was she? Hurry up and tell me!
Then give me another five million and Ill tell you where she is! If you dont give it to her, shell
Ill give it to you!Jing Zhi interrupted him. Old Jin, transfer the money!
Jin Xin also realized that something was wrong. Without saying anything, he immediately transferred another five million Yuan to the other party.
Fortunately, the other party had received the money and did not go back on his word. He quickly gave an address and hung up the phone.
Jing Zhi took out his phone, turned on the GPS, and drove to the address.
When she woke up again, Zheng yuluos vision was pitch ck. Her eyes were covered with a ck cloth, and she could only see a faint light.
Her hands and feet were tied, and shey on the cold ground. She didnt know where she was, nor did she know what had happened.
Could it be that she was kidnapped?
Yo, this girl sure wakes up quickly! Why do I look so dull? second brother, wake her up!
A bucket of cold water was poured on Zheng yuluos body.
Ah!
Zheng yuluo shrieked and trembled in fear.
She wanted to get up, but her limbs were tied up and she couldnt get up at all.
Who tied him up like this? Hurry up and let go. Otherwise, when my sugar daddyes, hell be unhappy. My sugar daddy said that he likes spicy food! Hahaha!
Someone stepped forward and rudely kicked Zheng yuluo, cutting the thin rope on her hands and feet with a knife. The other party did not show any mercy at all. The knife was extremely sharp. When it Cut the Rope, it also cut Zheng yuluos hands and feet.
Zheng yuluo could not care less about the sharp pain from her hands and feet. She got up from the ground, drenched. Just as she reached out to untie the ck cloth around her eyes, she was kicked to the ground from behind.
Be honest! If you move again, we wont be polite! Lie down, who allowed you to stand up?
Zheng yuluos waist was kicked, and it was burning.
She fell onto the hard and cold concrete floor. Her whole body was in pain and she could not get up at all.
Who are you people? If you need money, I can give you a lot! Please let me go!
Zheng yuluo was extremely terrified. She had never experienced such a legendary kidnapping in her life.
Thest time she had been robbed, she hadnt been hurt at all. Jing Zhi had saved her before she had even started to feel afraid.
She always felt that those things were very far away from her.
Zheng yuluo didnt know that the reason why she was so far away from all kinds of violent incidents was not because she was lucky, nor because all the bad guys knew and feared Zheng Jing, the director. It was because Jing Zhi had been by her side almost every day in the past, quietly protecting her and eliminating all the hidden dangers for her.
Only Deng kun, this hidden danger, was interrupted by Zheng yuluo as soon as Jing Zhi gave him a little punishment, or it could be said that Deng kun was protected by Zheng yuluo.
That was why she had to suffer today.
A few tall and strong men surrounded Zheng yuluo, all staring at her with bright eyes.
She waspletely drenched, and her clothes clung tightly to her body, revealing her beautiful figure.
Someone approached Zheng yuluo and wanted to touch her face. Zheng yuluo didnt know where her courage and strength came from, but she pped the person in the face.
The man was furious and pped Zheng yuluo twice.
The man was very strong, and Zheng yuluos face immediately swelled up.
Third brother, stop fighting! If she was broken, the sugar daddy wouldnt give her money! When the sugar daddy is done ying, we can y whatever we want!
Zheng yuluo covered her face and cowered against the wall. The fear in her heart was magnified infinitely. Her whole body was shaking, not knowing what fate she was going to face.
Whos the sugar daddy?
Why did he do this to her?
She didnt remember offending anyone!
These people looked fierce, and it was obvious that they were not good people. Zheng yuluo knew that if she fell into their hands, she would be better off dead.
Zheng yuluo didnt know where she had been taken. She was in pain all over, and her tears flowed out involuntarily.
This ce was in shambles, like an abandoned factory. Even if she were to die Here, no one would know.
It was dark outside, and there were no lights in the factory. All the light came from the shlights in the hands of the men.
So, when they turned off all the shlights, the factory quickly fell into darkness.
The few of them walked away while cursing. Zheng yuluo heard them talking to someone in the distance, arguing about the money.
Zheng yuluo couldnt hear her clearly from a distance, and she couldnt care less about how much she was worth. She struggled to get up from the ground and ran barefoot with the moonlight shining in through the window.
However, she was too naive.
Since the other party dared to let her go, they must have been prepared for her to escape.
The factory was old, but the walls and windows were very high. There was only one exit, but it was blocked by their people.
Right outside the factorys window, there was a deep pool that was used for cooling in the past. It was surrounded by wire guardrails.
The autumn rain had not stopped for some time, so the pool was already full. No one dared to jump in.
Moreover, it was useless even if they jumped in. They could still go into the pool and fish them out.
Zheng yuluo ran for a while and found that she could not escape at all. She finally gave up.
Someone was slowly walking toward her. In the dark, Zheng yuluo was terrified and screamed,Donte over! Get out!
Chapter 1365
Chapter 1365: Fear and despair
Trantor: 549690339
The manughed sinisterly and deliberately lowered his voice.I like it when women scream like this. Its so interesting! If you scream more miserably, I might be happy and let you feel morefortable!
Zheng Yu Luo was terrified. The other party had deliberately changed her way of speaking and voice, so she did not realize that this voice was familiar.
A hand reached out from the darkness to her side and roughly tore off her clothes.
Zheng yuluo screamed and kicked and hit him, but all she got in return was a p from the other party.
Pa pa pa!
B * tch! You dare to hit me? Ill kill you!
Zheng yuluos face was burning with pain, and blood was flowing from the corner of her mouth. Her hair was violently pulled by the other party, and her clothes were getting less and less.
She knew what her fate was going to be. She would rather die than be humiliated.
She hugged her body tightly and pretended not to resist. When the man rxed a little, she used all her strength to kick him in the lower body.
With a scream, Zheng yuluo broke free from the devils ws and ran to the window without any regard for her life. She broke through her potential and climbed to The High Window, then jumped down without hesitation.
The pool water was cold, dark, and bottomless.
It was only at this moment that Zheng yuluo realized that she could swim!
Over the past year, her family had never allowed her toe into contact with the sea or rivers. The reason was that she had almost drowned before and she could not swim.
She believed it!
However, swimming was an instinct, and it was hard to forget after learning it.
The moment she entered the water, Zheng yuluo subconsciously floated up.
However, she quickly gave up on the idea of swimming to the surface.
She would rather drown than be touched by those people.
Zheng yuluo had already heard the shouts of the men around her.
Catch her! Shes in the pool!
You cant run! Well just wait by the shore, where can she run to?
She cant swim, dont let her drown, quickly get her out!
Zheng yuluo could no longer hear the messy voices.
She allowed herself to sink to the bottom of the pool.
Suffocating, Zheng yuluo felt that her life hade to an end.
In a daze, a memory suddenly exploded in his mind.
In the past, she seemed to have felt this suffocating feeling too!
She sank herself into the water and couldnt breathe because a certain person had disappeared from her life. She had no attachment to life.
She remembered now. She had indeedmitted suicide.
That day, they were supposed to be filming a scene, a scene of someone drowning.
She had turned her acting into reality.
She finally knew why she had forgotten about Jing Zhi and who he was.
However, it was all meaningless.
She wanted to live, but she didnt have the conditions to do so.
Zheng yuluo closed her eyes in pain, and her consciousness began to blur.
In her daze, someone seemed to have jumped in, quickly swam to her side, and breathed into her mouth.
Zheng yuluo did not know who he was. She wanted to struggle, but he held her tightly and she swam to the water level.
In fact, she had no more strength to struggle. Thest trace of consciousness had disappeared, and she hadpletely fallen into darkness. She knew nothing about the outside world.
Zheng yuluo! Wake up!
Jing Zhi knelt by the pool with Zheng yuluo in his arms, drenched. He was shocked and angry as he went to check Zheng yuluos breathing and touched her chest.
Fortunately, she was still alive!
The men who had been waiting to catch Zheng yuluo on the shore saw Jing Zhi and started beating him up with iron rods.
However, in just a single exchange, the few strong men were all knocked to the ground, vomiting blood.
They didnt even see Jing Zhis movements.
Jing Zhi was afraid that something would happen to Zheng yuluo, so he didnt even have time to deal with these people. He took her and left the ce quickly. He drove the car at maximum speed and sent her to family MUs Hospital.
An hourter, mu Sen walked out of the emergency room and said to Jing Zhi, who was waiting outside,Shes fine now. She just held her breath for too long and was too scared, so she fainted. She should wake up tomorrow.
Jing Zhis clothes were still dripping with water. He had been waiting here the whole time and hadnt thought about changing his clothes.
Hearing mu Sens words, he nodded his head expressionlessly and said in a hoarse voice,Many thanks! Dont tell her I saved her.
Zheng yuluo was fine now. Jing Zhi only nced at the door of the emergency room before he turned and left.
Hey, hey, hey, youre leaving just like that? mu Sen asked in surprise. After a hero saves a beauty, he should at least leave his name! When she wakes up and finds out that youre the one who saved her, shell definitely follow you with all her heart! This is the best time to take advantage of the situation!
Jing Zhi, however, walked out of the hospital as if he hadnt heard her.
He was going to investigate the person who had called him and the person who had kidnapped Zheng yuluo!
Zheng yuluo fell asleep drowsily. She felt that she had had a very, very long dream.
In the dream, she grew from a little girl to an adult.
She dreamed that she and her sister had tied up a little boy and given him to a human trafficker.
This was the most painful and untouchable memory in the depths of her memory!
When she grew up, she fell in love with that boy. They were entangled and quarreled constantly.
Love and hate intertwined. They were clearly deeply in love, but there were always various reasons that separated them.
She couldnt stand a life without him. He was gone, and she wanted to leave as well. She wanted to leave the entire world, and then there would be no more pain.
However, she miraculously survived, fell in love with another person, and even got married.
Until the man she had once loved deeply appeared again, her life was turned upside down again.
Then, it was the nightmare of being kidnapped.
She was knocked unconscious and brought to an abandoned factory.
Someone kept hitting her, scolding her, torturing her, and stripping her clothes.
She screamed and resisted, but eventually sank into the water.
Fear, darkness, and suffocation alternated, and Zheng yuluo felt that she could not breathe.
She suddenly woke up and gasped for breath.
Luoluo, youre awake!
Sister!
Yu Luo, can you hear us?
Zheng yuluo was frightened and had a splitting headache. She nced at the six people around her bed-her parents, her sister, Mr. And Mrs. Deng, and Deng kun.
Everyones faces were filled with concern and joy.
She suddenlyughed hysterically. Her voice was hoarse and dry, and herughter was a little scary and hysterical.
As sheughed, her tears started to flow.
The six of them were all a little stunned. They did not know why Zheng yuluo was so crazy as soon as she woke up.
Someone shouted luo luo, and Zheng yuluo immediately screamed,Dont call me! Get lost! Get out! Youre all demons!
Chapter 1366
Chapter 1366: Recovery of memory
Trantor: 549690339
The six of them were scared out of their wits, and no one moved.
Zheng yuluo suddenly pulled out the needle from her hand, lifted the quilt, got out of bed, and ran out.
Sister, your shoes!
Luoluo, where are you going?
Zheng yuluo ignored everyone. She ran down the stairs and out of the hospital barefooted.
There were still many small wounds on her body that had not healed at all. She was in pain all over, but Zheng yuluo did not seem to notice at all.
She wore the patients garb and ran down the street with tears streaming down her face. She desperately hailed a taxi and begged the driver to send her to a certain address.
After the car left, Zheng Jing and the rest became smaller and smaller, but Zheng yuluo cried more and more.
Ten minutester, the taxi stopped in front of a small vi. The driver saw that she was crying and thought that she might be mentally unstable. He sighed and did not ask for the fare.
Zheng Yu got off the car and walked straight into the vi.
She had once forgotten this address, and now she finally remembered it!
Everything in the vi had not changed. It was exactly the same as in her memory.
Zheng yuluo walked up the White marble steps of the vi step by step.
Suddenly, the door opened, and a tall and thin figure walked out.
He was obviously stunned when he saw her.
Why did youe out of the hospital?
Jing Zhi suddenly realized something was wrong.How did you know my address?
Zheng yuluo raised her head and looked at him with tears on her face.You saved me, right?
The way she looked at him today was a little different. Jing Zhis heart skipped a beat and he denied it subconsciously.No!
Zheng yuluo suddenly screamed,youre lying! Youre the one who saved me! Other than you, no one else can save me from so many people! You kissed me in the water, I know! I remember all of them!
Her hair was disheveled, and she was wearing a baggy patients garb. She did not wear any shoes, and she was screaming like a lunatic.
Jing Zhis heart ached as if it was being torn apart!
Whats wrong with you? Who bullied you again?
Zheng yuluo threw herself into his arms, pounding his chest as she cried,I hate you! I hate all of you! All of you are lying to me! Why do you want me to marry another man? Ive been yours for a long time. Other people might not know, but dont you know that?
Jing Zhis mind shook.Rain! Do you remember me?
Zheng yuluos tears soaked Jing Zhis shirt. She leaned on Jing Zhis chest and bit him hard, as if she wanted to kill him with blood.
Dont bite! Raindrop, be good, dont bite! Dont scare me!
Jing Zhi had no choice but to pinch Zheng yuluos jaw and force her to open her mouth.
Zheng yuluo sobbed. She pped Jing Zhis hand away, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed him on the lips.
She kissed him too hard, sucking and biting. Jing Zhi was afraid that she would break his lips and tongue, so he pressed her head down to stop her from moving.
Youre too impulsive right now. Luoyu, stop. If you want to kiss me, wait until you calm down. You can kiss me for as long as you want.
I won t! I want to kiss you now! Otherwise, what if I forget about you again in the future? Otherwise, what if you fall in love with another woman?
Jing Zhis heart ached for her. He quickly kissed Zheng yuluo on the lips, then carried her by the waist and walked into the vi.
No, I wont fall for another woman, and I wont allow you to forget me again.
Jing Zhi put Zheng yuluo on the sofa and was about to stand up, but Zheng yuluo hugged him tightly.Where are you going? Dont you go!
Im not leaving. Ill get a towel to wipe your face and your leg. Its bleeding from the cut. Ill get some gauze and wrap it up for you.
I dont need it! Dont go anywhere, just sit here and hug me!
Zheng yuluo refused to let go, so Jing Zhi had no choice but to sit down and hold her in his arms. He used his sleeve to wipe her face.
Zheng yuluo was not satisfied with the two of them sitting side by side. She got up and sat on Jing Zhisp, burying her face in his chest.Didnt you always hug me like this in the past? Why dont you let me sit on you? Dont you like me anymore?
She was a little willful, a little unreasonable, and a little fearful and pitiful.
Jing Zhi kissed her forehead and said in a low and serious voice,No, I just cant believe that youve thought of me. Im afraid that youll forget me again after a while.
Then lets go to sleep now!
Jing Zhi couldnt keep up with her.What?
Get on the bed! Hurry up!
Zheng yuluo urged her anxiously, as if she was afraid that she would forget Jing Zhi again. She wanted to do everything she could while she still remembered him.
Jing Zhi sighed softly and lowered his head to give Zheng yuluo a deep kiss.Dont make a fuss. You just fell into the water and youre still injured. Its not suitable for you to do strenuous exercise. Well do it when youre better. Just dont beg for mercy.
Zheng yuluo reached out to take off Jing Zhis shirt and pants when she saw that he didnt want to listen to her. But when she touched Jing Zhis hard body, she blushed and quickly retracted her hand as if she had been electrocuted.
Jing Zhi pressed her against his body and buried his face in Zheng yuluos neck. He said in a restrained manner,Yu Luo, youre ying with fire! I havent touched you in a long time. You definitely cant take it in your current condition. Are you sure you want to do it?
Zheng yuluo didnt say anything. She couldnt handle Jing Zhi when he went crazy.
Moreover, she only realized now that her hair was disheveled, her clothes were in a mess, her feet were dirty, and her face was disfigured.
How could she meet Jing Zhi naked in this state?
I want to wash my face! Washing his feet! Take a bath!
The topic had changed so quickly that Jing Zhiughed.
Zheng yuluos mind was too active today. He could not guess what she was thinking.
He turned his face slightly and bit Zheng yuluos tender earlobe. He said in a low voice,Ill do whatever you say as long as you remember me and dont leave me, baby!
Zheng yuluos ear was extremely sensitive. When he bit her, it was like an electric shock, and the numbness spread from her ear to the soles of her feet.
She felt her body go soft and her face waspletely red.
Jing Zhi chuckled, picked her up, and carried her to the bathroom.
Y-y-you What are you doing?
Didnt you want to take a bath? Ill give you a rub, free of charge, dont be afraid.
Zheng yuluo hurriedly refused,no, no! Ill wash myself!
Jing Zhi used what Zheng yuluo had said before,Do you not like me anymore?
Ill be quick, just give me five minutes!
But I dont want to be separated from you for even a minute.

Zheng yuluos refusal was in vain. Jing Zhi carried her into the bathroom and stripped her naked.
She was so embarrassed that she crossed her arms and begged him,Can you leave? I want to wash myself, I feel very ufortable with you inside.
Jing Zhi had a strong desire at first, but when he saw Zheng yuluos injuries, it quickly turned into heartache and pity.
He turned on the shower, adjusted the water temperature, and hugged the shy Zheng yuluo, gently bathing her.
She was injured, so Jing Zhi didnt want to take too long to wash her. He washed her hair, wrapped her in arge towel, and carried her out of the bathroom.
Zheng yuluo was still too embarrassed to look up. She had been very bold when she said she wanted to do the most intimate thing with Jing Zhi.
However, when it came to actual action, she didnt have that much courage.
But she had to admit that Jing Zhi giving her a bath made her so happy that she wanted to cry.
Jing Zhi had short hair, and there was no hairdryer at home, so he couldnt dry Zheng yuluos hair. He took a towel and patiently helped her dry it.
Zheng yuluo was sitting on Jing Zhis bed, wrapped in arge bath towel.
Jing Zhi kissed her after a while. Zheng yuluos heart was so sweet that she felt like she had eaten candy. She didnt even feel the pain from her wounds anymore.
After drying her hair, Jing Zhi took the first aid kit and carefully applied medicine and bandaged Zheng yuluos wound.
Her body was covered in bruises, and there were several knife wounds on her hands and feet. Mu Sen had probably treated them for her before, but now, it was still a shocking sight.
Jing Zhi was extremely angry and heartbroken. He hugged Zheng yuluo and asked through gritted teeth,Yuluo, do you know who took you away?
Im going to kill him! Those who dare to touch your people, dont even think about living!
Zheng yuluo did not dare to think about what had happened before. It was the darkest and most painful night of her life.
She grabbed Jing Zhis hand tightly and said in a trembling voice,I dont know. I was standing outside your bar and saw that your bar was smashed. I wanted to go in and take a look, but I was knocked out! They have a few people and they said they have a sugar daddy. They They
Zheng yuluo couldnt continue. She snuggled in Jing Zhis arms, seeking his warmth and heartbeat, as if it was the only way to be safe.
Jing Zhi saw that she was scared and quickly kissed her forehead.Yuluo, dont be afraid, dont be afraid. Its okay, dont think about it anymore!
Zheng yuluos panic dissipated a lot as he coaxed her. She tried hard to recall what had happened that night, and then described the faces and voices of those people to Jing Zhi.
She was indeed afraid, but she couldnt run away just because she was afraid. Otherwise, those people would always be atrge. Perhaps one day, she would be taken away by them and experience those things that were worse than death.
I didnt see the sugar daddys face. His voice was a little rough, and he was quite tall and strong. Before I jumped into the water, I kicked him down there. I think I might have broken it
Zheng yuluos voice was so low that it could barely be heard.
In the face of life and death, she didnt care about embarrassment at all. She aimed at the mans most vulnerable ce and kicked him.
She felt that with the strength she had used in her panic, that person would probably not be able to be a man anymore.
Luckily you came, or I would have drowned! There were a lot of them guarding the pool, so I didnt dare to show my face, so I had to swim deeper
As Zheng yuluo spoke, she began to cry softly.
The fear of approaching death was something that people who had never experienced would never understand.
Dont cry, dont cry. Its my fault. I was toote!
Jing Zhi put all the me on himself. He gently wiped Zheng yuluos tears and coaxed her.
No, its not your fault. Without you, I would definitely be dead.
Zheng yuluo, however, knew that this had nothing to do with Jing Zhi. She already felt very lucky that he had found her and saved her in time.
How did you know where I was? I think its really run-down there. It should be an abandoned factory. It must be in the suburbs! How did you find it?
Someone called me and said that you were taken away. Jing Zhis expression was cold. He asked me for a sum of money and then told me your location. This person is very likely to be an aplice of the person who kidnapped you!
Zheng yuluo was furious,I didnt offend anyone usually! I didnt provoke them, but theyre so ruthless. These people are simply heartless!
It was a pity that Zheng yuluo was not good at scolding people. Even if she wanted to scold those who kidnapped her, she could only say,they will get their retribution.
How much did that person ask you for?
Six million.
So many?
Zheng yuluo was both angry and touched.Arent you afraid that theyre lying to you? What if you go to that damn ce and Im not there? Wouldnt the money be wasted?
Jing Zhi hugged Zheng yuluo tightly and said in a low voice,Its only six million. Youre much more valuable than this in my heart. Even if what he said was a bit true, I would still give him the money without hesitation. If you run out of money, you can earn it again. If anything happens to you, it doesnt matter how much money you have.
Zheng yuluo sobbed softly. She knew that Jing Zhi loved her, but only at the most critical moment could she see how much a man loved her.
Itll take a long time for me to pay back so much money. I can write you an IOU She said softly.
Jing Zhi pinched her delicate chin and warned her in a domineering tone,Dont think like that! Why do I need you to pay me back for saving you? If you really want to pay me back, then you can stay here. Yes, you can pay me back with your body!
Oh, I didnt intend to pay you back. I was just saying it casually. Why did you take it seriously?
Zheng yuluo had just cried, and her voice was nasal, making her sound particrly coquettish.
Jing Zhi loved to hear her sweet voice when she acted coquettishly with him.
He chuckled, lowered his head, and pecked Zheng yuluos lips. He said lovingly,So you dont want to pay me back? fine, then Ill pay you back with my body. How about it?
No! Zheng yuluo hurriedly wrapped herself tightly.Youre the one who took advantage of me!
Just now, who was the one who was so anxious that she insisted on pulling me to sleep? You even took off my shirt and pants
Zheng yuluo was embarrassed. She covered Jing Zhis mouth in a hurry. Dont say anymore! That wasnt me!
Jing Zhi smiled. He touched Zheng yuluos hair and said,Ill get you some clothes. What kind do you like?
I like your coat!
Jing Zhi nodded. He picked up a shirt and a coat.Take the bath towel, Ill help you put it on!
Chapter 1368
Chapter 1368: Marriage proposal
Trantor: 549690339
You go out, Ill wear it myself!
Zheng yuluo snatched the clothes back and chased Jing Zhi away with a red face.
This is my house, why are you asking me to go out?
Jing Zhi stood by the bed with no intention of leaving. He said teasingly,I saw everything I shouldnt have seen in the shower just now. Whats there to be embarrassed about changing clothes? Weve done even more embarrassing things, dont tell me you forgot again? You wont look down on me for being a veteran and you for being a newbie likest time, will you?
Thinking of what she had once said and the jealousy she had felt, Zheng yuluo even wanted to die.
I didnt remember what happened in the past! Youre the one who keeps talking about your ex-girlfriend, how would I know that Im your ex-girlfriend?
Its not toote to know now. You should fulfill your duties as a girlfriend. If I cant eat you, Ill just watch, okay?
Jing Zhi was thick-skinned and refused to leave. He insisted on seeing Zheng yuluo change her clothes in person. Zheng yuluo had no choice but to change.
They had been together for a long time, and although it was embarrassing for Jing Zhi to see them, they looked very intimate.
However, Jing Zhi rushed to take a cold shower after he saw Zheng yuluo change her clothes.
After half an hour, he came out of the bathroom. His hair was still wet, but he looked calm.
He swore to himself that he would never do such a thing again!
It was easy to get a nosebleed by looking at a naked woman for no reason. If his needs were not met, he always felt that his body would explode and he would die!
Zheng yuluo was already in Jing Zhis shirt and windbreaker, walking around his vi.
She had been here many times, but she had never looked at it seriously.
There were many photos of Jing Zhi when he was a child in the vi. Zheng yuluo picked them up and looked at them one by one. At the end, she felt very sad.
She remembered how she had isted Jing Zhi when they were little.
Seeing Jing Zhie out of the bathroom, Zheng yuluo went up to him and hugged his waist. She said softly,Ill be good to you in the future, Jingzhi. Ill be very, very good to you. You cant abandon me, okay?
Jing Zhineng didnt want her, but he wouldnt abandon Zheng yuluo either.
He did not know where Zheng yuluos emotion came from, but he knew how to answer.
I want yours, yuluo. Lets get married, okay? Ive wanted to marry you for a long, long time! In the future, itll only be the two of us together. Ill apany you wherever you want to go and do whatever you want to do.
Zheng yuluo looked at Jing Zhi in surprise and joy, and her words were incoherent.Married? Really? I I You really want me?
Really, lets get married!
Jing Zhi took Zheng yuluos hand and walked to the safe. He entered the password and opened it. He took out an exquisite golden box.
He opened the box, held Zheng yuluos hand with one hand, handed the box over with the other, and knelt in front of her on one knee.
Yuluo, Im officially proposing to you. Ive loved you for a long time, and Ill love you even more in the future. I want to marry you. Are you willing?
Jing Zhi had been waiting for Zheng yuluo to regain her memory. He was waiting for her to let go of all the messy things and only love him.
The diamond ring in the box shone brightly and dazzled the eyes.
Zheng yuluos tears fell. She took the ring and choked,Im willing, Im willing! I love you too, more than you can imagine! Im willing to do anything for you!
She was crying so hard, but she felt so happy. She was crying andughing at the same time, like a fool.
Jing Zhi stood up and kissed her hard. Then he put the ring on her finger and spun her around in his arms. He said loudly,Zheng yuluo, you are my woman from now on! Youre not allowed to forget me in the future, and youre not allowed to date other men!
Zheng yuluo felt very happy being held in his arms. She put her arms around Jing Zhis neck, tears in her eyes, but her eyes were full of joy.If we get married, even if I forget you, well still be husband and wife!
That makes sense! So, we have to get our marriage certificate as soon as possible!
Speaking of marriage, Zheng yuluo pouted.What should we do? my household register is in my fathers hands. I might not be able to get it back!
Jing Zhi smiled bitterly.Our household register is with my father. Hes having fun with my mother. We dont even know where they are.
When Jing Zhi came back from North America, he had used the ID and household registration that the Research Institute had given him. The name on it wasnt Jing Zhi, but his English name Sean, and he was also an United States.
If he told Jing Yiran that he was going to marry Zheng yuluo, Jing Yiran would probably not agree. He had told him before to stay away from Zheng yuluo and never to be together.
Was he going to marry Zheng yuluo with the identity given by the Research Institute?
Jing Zhi didnt want this to happen. He still wanted to marry Zheng yuluo with his original identity. He also wanted his parents to ept Zheng yuluo.
If Jing Yiran had a chance to agree, then Zheng Jing would not.
Jing Zhi hugged Zheng yuluo tightly at the thought of this. He gritted his teeth and said,Yuluo, can you stay at my ce? Dont go home yet, Ill think of a way to get married! Im afraid that I wont be able to see you again once youe home!
Zheng yuluo knew what Jing Zhi was worried about. Once she got home, her family might be very strict with her and not let her meet Jing Zhi.
She leaned her face against Jing Zhis chest and listened to his strong heartbeat. She said softly,I dont want to go home either. I dont like to stay at home for a long time. Youre going to marry me, so wherever you are, itll be my home. Ill live with you, and youll support me!
Jing Zhi couldnt believe that Zheng yuluo wasnting home. Had she finally decided to choose him over her family?
Ill take care of you, take care of you for a lifetime!
Jing Zhi kissed Zheng yuluo happily. The two were engrossed in the kiss when Jin Xin suddenly came in. When he saw this scene, he quickly walked out.
Zheng yuluo didnt notice him, but Jing Zhi was on high alert and knew that Jin Xin had returned.
However, he did not care. He hugged Zheng yuluo and continued to kiss her.
When the two of them were done, Jin Xin rolled his eyes and walked in.You two, can you not be so hot in broad daylight? Cant you restrain yourself a little?
Seeing that someone hade in, Zheng yuluo was so embarrassed that she couldnt raise her head. She buried her head in Jing Zhis arms like an ostrich, not daring to look at Jin Xin.
Jing Zhi sat down on the sofa with Zheng yuluo in his arms as if nothing had happened. Hebed her hair with his fingers and said, Im already restraining myself. Otherwise, you wouldnt havee back to see such an innocent scene! Besides, is it illegal for me to kiss my own wife in my own house?

Jin Xin stared at him, dumbfounded. He was about to say something when Jing Zhi mumbled to himself,Even if its against thew, I still have to kiss you! Ive done a lot of illegal things! I like being intimate with my woman, I also want to
Dont say anymore!
Zheng yuluo couldnt stand it anymore. She quickly covered Jing Zhis mouth. If she didnt stop him, who knew what he would sayter?
Jing Zhi lowered his head and smiled at Zheng yuluo.Okay, baby, Ill listen to you. If you dont want me to say it, I wont say it. Someones jealous of us. Lets ignore him and continue kissing? Or do you want something even more extreme?
Zheng yuluo and Jin Xin were going crazy!
He used toin that Jing Zhi didnt speak at all. No matter what you said to him, he would only reply with an mm. Why was he so talkative now?
They were two extremes!
Is this an illness?
Dont you need to treat it?
Had mu Sen been giving Jing Zhi the right medicine recently?
Please dont let your brain be damaged after youve recovered!
Jin Xin tried to hold back, but in the end, he couldnt help but remind the two of them,Bureau chief Zheng is looking for his daughter all over A city. He has sent people to our bar several times, and there are even people keeping watch over there. I think he will find his way here very soon. You two should find proper clothes to wear first!
Zheng yuluos windbreaker had been taken off by Jing Zhi. She was only wearing Jing Zhis white shirt, which was a mess.
Jing Zhi didnt even put on a shirt. He was only wearing a pair of shorts. A certain part of his body was especially magnificent.
The two of them hugged each other. No one would believe that nothing had happened.
If Zheng Jing came in and saw this, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.
Hearing Jin Xins words, the two mens expressions changed.
Especially Zheng yuluo, she was so scared that she immediately jumped out of Jing Zhis arms and tidied her clothes in a panic.
Jing Zhi stood up and hugged Zheng yuluo when he saw her panic.Yuluo, its fine. Ill talk to your father. You can just stand behind me.
Zheng yuluo panicked for a while, but she quickly calmed down.
Listening to her family and obeying their words had almost been engraved in her bones.
Since she was a child, she had admired her father, who had be a Criminal Police officer and a bureau chief. She was even a little afraid of him. She rarely had the will to resist, and most of the time, she would subconsciously obey.
However, from the moment she woke up in the hospital, all the pent-up emotions that she had been suppressing for a long time exploded!
She had been deceived by her own family until now. She clearly had someone she liked, but they forced her to marry someone else.
If she didnt resist, what would she do in the future?
Marry Deng kun?
Zheng yuluo could not do it.
She had nned to ask Jing Zhi to buy her a set of suitable clothes, in case Zheng Jing would get angry at her.
But she didnt want to dress appropriately at this moment. This was the only way she could show her determination to be with Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo raised her hand and gently caressed Jing Zhis handsome face. Her voice was soft and tender, full of love.Of course, Ill negotiate with my father. Well go get our marriage certificate after I get the household register. I forgot to ask, how did you lose so much weight? Ill make good food for you to make up for it, okay?
Jing Zhi especially liked Zheng yuluos gentle look. He felt that there was no one more delicate than Zheng yuluo in the world. He wanted to hold her in his hands just by looking at her.
You can cook? Howe I didnt know about it?
I didnt know how to do it before, but I can learn how to do it. Its not a difficult thing. What do you like to eat? Lets go buy it together.
Orange, beef, you.
Zheng yuluo smiled and stood on her tiptoes. She kissed Jing Zhi on his chin and said,Then we can have steak for lunch today. Do you have a frying pan at home?
Jin, do you have a frying pan? Jing Zhi asked.
Jin Xins face was full of confusion, and he said weakly,There is.
Jing Zhi turned around and looked at Zheng yuluo gently.There is.
Lets go to the supermarket then! I like fruit-vored toothpaste and frothy shower gel. Your shower gel doesnt bubble, isnt good to use, and doesnt smell good. Lets go get new ones, okay?
When Zheng yuluo said these words, she was especially like a little woman who wanted to live with him for a long time. She was soft and sweet.
An indescribable feeling of happiness welled up in Jing Zhis heart. He couldnt help but kiss Zheng yuluos face, her eyes, and her lips. Then he said lovingly,Okay, we can buy orange-vored toothpaste and the shower gel you like. The original one was bought by Lao Jin. He has bad taste, so Im sorry.
Jin Xin, who was standing at the side, felt that it was thanks to his strong mental fortitude that he hadnt vomited blood and died!
He had seen so many melodramatic TV series and movies, but none of them were as exciting as this scene in front of him! When did the two of them take a shower together?
Zheng yuluo had even used the shower gel at home! He was really fast!
When he came back from buying body lotions, Jing Zhi had said that he had finally bought the right thing.
Now, even the only thing that was right was wrong!
He had just been worried that Zheng Jing woulde here to catch him, but he had totally forgotten about Zheng Jing and started to torture him. Was he an eyesore here?
Jin Xin was just about to turn around and leave when Jing Zhi said,Old Jin, give me the money! I dont have any money in my pocket!
Ancestor, you can use your card!
That card is not enough, give me another one! Some ces dont allow credit cards, give me cash quickly!
Jin Xin shook his head helplessly, opened his wallet, and gave him a card, as well as arge amount of cash.Wastrel!
Jing Zhi took the money and stuffed it into Zheng yuluos hand. Ill go with you to buy some clothes, the most beautiful ones!
But can I leave the house like this?
Isnt it very popr for girls to wear mens clothes now? This shirt doesnt suit you. Its too sexy. Ill get you a thin sweater that you can wear as a skirt.
I still dont have shoes to wear!
I can carry you into the shop, and we can take our time to choose.
Jin Xin couldnt stand it anymore. He said to Jing Zhi,Im going to the bar, then left.
The bar had been smashed and was currently under renovation. He needed to go back and take care of it!
Jin Xin now felt that the renovation workers were much cuter. They were all working honestly, and there was no one torturing dogs!
Jin Xin had just left, and Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo were still talking when Zheng Jing came with Zheng Yuwei.
The gate of Jingzhis Vi was open, but Zheng Jing and Zheng Yuwei didnt go in. Zheng Yuwei kept shouting at the door,Big sister, are you here? Big sister
Chapter 1370
Chapter 1370: An attempt to resolve the conflict
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi held Zheng yuluos hand and walked out.
Both Zheng Jing and Zheng Yuwei looked upset the moment they saw Zheng yuluo.
They had suspected that Zheng yuluo hade to Jing Zhis house, but they also thought that she didnt remember Jing Zhis address at all.
Now that they saw the two of them together, they all thought that Zheng yuluo had been brought home by Jing Zhi.
Yuluo,e home with me! Did you turn a deaf ear to my words?
Zheng Jing was furious.
Looking at the two of them, their clothes disheveled and their hands held together, he felt that his daughter had been tricked by Jing Zhi.
He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Zheng yuluos arm.Go home immediately! Youre not allowed to have any contact with him in the future!
Im not going back!
Zheng yuluo struggled to get out of Zheng Jings hand and looked fierce and cold.You guys can go, whoever wants to date Deng kun can go! Ive had enough of that life! You guys treated me like a fool and lied to me. Are you so confident that Ill never remember the past?
You remember? Zheng Jing was startled.
Right!
Zheng yuluo thought of the days she had spent in the past year and felt like she was dreaming! She had been deceived by her familys love like an idiot. If she had any memory of Jing Zhi, she would never have been in a rtionship with someone else.
Fortunately, she had nothing to do with Deng kun and she didnt marry him. Otherwise, she wouldnt have the face toe to Jing Zhi after she recovered her memory.
I remember everything now, so I cant marry anyone! Dont even think about making me date other men, I cant do it! If you really want to bring me home, fine. Ill die in front of you now, and you can bring my corpse back!
Zheng yuluos gaze was fierce,pletely unlike the girl who was usually gentle like water.
Zheng Jing had never seen his daughter talk to him like this. He even wondered if this was his daughter.
The elder daughter had always been gentle and well-behaved, and her voice was soft, just like her wife, Zheng Lun.
The fierce and violent Zheng yuluo now did not look like her family, but rather like Jing Zhi!
Jing Zhi didnt think that Zheng yuluo was like him. He didnt want Zheng yuluo to really fall out with her family. He married Zheng yuluo to make her happy, not to make her be abandoned by her family.
He took a step forward and pulled Zheng yuluo behind him. Then he looked up at Zheng Jing and said,Uncle, please listen to me.
Zheng Yuwei was stunned. Jing Zhi called her father uncle?
The sun had risen from the West!
He used to call Zheng Jing by his full name, and the most polite way of addressing him was director Zheng. He had never called him so intimately before.
Zheng yuluo had not expected Jing Zhi to be so gentle. She had thought that he would drive him away as soon as Zheng Jing came.
She knew Jing Zhis character too well. He was a proud man and would never bow down to others easily. She had seen how arrogant he was when he met Zheng Jing before. He almost fought with Zheng Jing every time.
But now, he had given in and addressed him as uncle. This was enough to prove that he had bowed to Zheng Jing.
He hadpromised for her.
Jing Zhi, Ill talk to my dad. Youre not needed!
Zheng yuluo couldnt bear to see Jing Zhi lower his head to anyone. He should maintain his cold arrogance. He didnt need to be so humble. He didnt need to!
Jing Zhi patted Zheng yuluos shoulder and said,I want to marry you. I have to let your father know that I can treat you well. Dont say anything, just let me speak.
He turned to Zheng Jing.Uncle, I really like yuluo. I may have done something wrong in the past and made her sad and angry. But I wont do it again. Were both mature and know what we want. I promise I wont quarrel with yuluo in the future. Ill give in to her and take good care of her for you. I believe that other than me, no one else can protect her!
Zheng Jing frowned and said,I can protect my daughter. I dont need you! Just dont get her killed. I wont agree to you two being together. You dont have to say anything!
You cant protect her forever. To tell you the truth, Ive been following her in secret and protecting her in the past year when she lost her memory. Do you know how many dangers shes been in?
Jing Zhi looked calm. Before this, he had also thought that he would kick Zheng Jing out with a cold face if he came.
But when he saw Zheng Jing, he suddenly realized that this might be the worst way.
Even if he couldnt get Zheng Jings approval immediately, he had to at least eliminate some misunderstandings and change Zheng Jings impression of him.
My feelings for yuluo are no joke. I care about everything about her! She forgot about me before, and you found her a boyfriend. I was going to give up because Deng kun was very good to yuluo and took care of her very carefully. Yuluo smiled more, which I couldntpare to back then.
But the person you found is too unqualified! When he was dating yuluo, he had sex with countless women! I opened a bar, you know that. You can go to my bar and other bars to ask what kind of person Deng kun is!
Dont talk nonsense!Zheng Jing got angry. Do you think youre a good person just because you smeared Deng kuns name? Ive already checked Deng kun. Although he has more female friends, their rtionship is normal! I dont want my daughter to marry you, not because of your temper, but because of your health!
If you really like yuluo, you should leave her, the further the better! If you keep her by your side, something will happen to her sooner orter! Do you want her to die because of you?
Of course not! But Ill definitely be careful and not let myself get hurt. Even if Im injured, Yu Luo might not die from my blood. The virus only spreads through blood, so shell be fine as long as she doesnt drink my blood.
Zheng Jing could not agree with Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi was a dangerous man. All the men in the world were safe and free of viruses. Zheng yuluo could choose a healthy one!
When Jing Zhi was not around, Zheng yuluo and Deng kun had been together. Hadnt they always been good?
If Deng kuns private life was really as messy as Jing Zhi said, then hed just have to find a better one.
If Zheng yuluo could forget Jing Zhi once, she could forget him a second time.
As long as Zheng yuluo went home and didnt meet Jing Zhi, she would gradually forget him and fall in love with someone else again!
Zheng Jing came forward and grabbed Zheng yuluos arm. He turned to Zheng Yuwei and said,Wei Wei,e and help me bring your sister back! Its not appropriate for you to live in someone elses house like this!

Zheng yuluo immediately said,Im not going back! After I get home, you all lie to me!
Zheng Yuwei stepped forward and grabbed Zheng yuluos arm.Sister, dont move, or itll be troublesome if I hurt you! Lets go home. When youre home, you can discuss it with dad. He loves you so much, so there must be a way!
Youre all liars! Liar! Why do you want me to be in a rtionship with Deng kun? Youve tricked me so much that Im not going home!
Zheng yuluo struggled with all her might, and when she couldnt break free, she lowered her head and bit Zheng Yuweis hand.
Zheng Yuwei was in pain. As she released her left hand, her right hand hit the back of Zheng yuluos neck.
Zheng yuluo groaned and fell softly on Zheng Yuweis body.
Zheng Yuwei was about to carry Zheng yuluo away, but her hands were empty. She was already in Jing Zhis arms.
His previous calmness and gentleness had all disappeared. In its ce was his usual ruthlessness.If she doesnt want to leave, why do you have to take her away? Get out of here! This is my vi, you have no right to step in! Get lost! Dont force me to do it!
Let go of my sister! Shes a member of our family, and you have no right to keep her here!
Zheng Yuwei was so angry that she tried to snatch her away from Jing Zhi. Zheng Jing joined her. He wouldnt allow Zheng yuluo to stay at Jing Zhis ce, or she wouldnte home.
Jing Zhi had Zheng yuluo in his arms and couldnt fight with them. He was afraid that he would hurt Zheng Jing and Zheng Yuwei, which would put him in a difficult position.
But he couldnt give up on Zheng yuluo no matter what. He couldnt hit her. He felt a little aggrieved. But if he really kicked Zheng Jing and Zheng Yuwei out, he was afraid that Zheng yuluo would be sad.
Jing Zhi had no choice but to leave with Zheng yuluo in his arms.
In terms of speed, even if he was carrying someone in his arms, the two of them could not catch up.
So Jing Zhi quickly got rid of her.
The autumn wind was a little cold. Jing Zhi wasnt afraid of the cold, but he was worried that Zheng yuluo might catch a cold.
He carried the unconscious Zheng yuluo and walked on the streets, looking for a hotel to check in.
However, the Star Hotel refused to let them stay. Jing Zhi didnt bring his ID card or money. He didnt even wear his shirt. Zheng yuluo was unconscious in his arms, her clothes disheveled. People thought he wasnt a good person.
Jing Zhi felt that he had never been in such a sorry state in his life.
He had never thought that he would be chased out of his own house.
He was the worlds top killer, but now he was like a stray dog on the streets.
He stood on the road and touched Zheng yuluos cold face, feeling a little sad.
He couldnt let Zheng yuluo live such a life with him, could he?
Obviously, Zheng Jing would not let this go. He would definitely ask him for his daughter back.
Jing Zhi had wanted to talk to Zheng Jing about it, but it didnt seem to work. Zheng Jings prejudice was too deep and it couldnt be resolved.
Ill find a way!
He was definitely going to marry Zheng yuluo!
Zheng Jings matter could be discussedter. The most important thing now was to take care of the unconscious Zheng yuluo.
He felt that Zheng Yuwei would definitely not be too heavy-handed, and Zheng yuluo should be able to wake up soon.
Jing Zhi took Zheng yuluo and sneaked into a house. He found a few clothes for Zheng yuluo to wear, then boiled water for her to drink.
As expected, Zheng yuluo woke up very quickly. When she saw Jing Zhi and the unfamiliar environment, she was a little confused.Where is this ce?
Its someone elses house.
Jing Zhi held Zheng yuluo in his arms and told her what had happened in a soft voice. Zheng yuluo was silent for a while before she said apologetically,Its all my fault. Ive implicated you.
Based on Jing Zhis power, Zheng Jing and Zheng Yuwei were no match for him.
He chose to escape because he didnt want to hurt them.
Dont say silly things. What do you mean by implicated? Lets leave this ce first. Otherwise, when masteres back, well be in trouble again.
Jing Zhi left with Zheng yuluo. Although the clothes and shoes didnt fit them well, they didnt stand out as they walked on the street.
The autumn wind was cold, and the streets were filled with yellow leaves.
But Zheng yuluo didnt feel sad. It was her dream to be able to hold Jing Zhis hand and walk with Him like this.
She hugged Jing Zhis arm and leaned on him affectionately. She said happily,Lets go for a walk every day, okay?
Jing Zhi lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead. Were all homeless, and you still want to take a walk? I didnt know that you were so big-hearted!
If I have you, then I have a home, right? After my dad and sister leave, we can still go home! Even if I dont have a home, Im happy as long as I can be with you!
Zheng yuluo was like a little girl, skipping and skipping as she walked.
To her, as long as Jing Zhi wanted her, no problem would stop her. She would follow him no matter what.
Jing Zhi held her hand and said seriously, Well definitely have a family. I want to marry you, so how can I not have a family? Ill ask old Jin to buy a new house, and you can decorate it yourself. You can choose any style you like!
Zheng yuluo giggled. She felt that life was especially beautiful, and there was a special sense of satisfaction in her heart.
Sure, Ill buy a set that my dad cant find! He wont object to it when were done with the deed and weve had our child!
Giving birth to a child
That was a problem. Jing Zhi frowned.
But wasnt Shuyin pregnant?
It didnt seem impossible for him to have children with Zheng yuluo in the future!
Jing Zhis brows rxed and he chuckled. Its already cooked, but it can be even more cooked!
He saw that Zheng yuluos shoes were a Little Big and did not fit her feet. He stepped forward and squatted down in front of her.Get on, Ill carry you.
Zheng yuluo was a little surprised. She had always thought that Jing Zhi was the cold kind who didnt know how to take care of or care for others. Now it seemed that she waspletely wrong.
When he really wanted to love her, he could take all the details into consideration.
Zheng yuluoughed and climbed onto Jing Zhis back. Jing Zhi stood up and walked forward slowly with her on his back.
The pedestrians on the road would look at them from time to time, but Jing Zhi didnt care.
Zheng yuluo was embarrassed at first and wanted to get down and walk on her own, but Jing Zhi wouldnt let her, so she had to lie on his back obediently.
After walking for a while, she had gotten used to the gazes of the passers-by. She chatted andughed with Jing Zhi, and when no one was looking, she would turn her face to kiss Jing Zhi.
Her happy little face was flushed red, just like a girl in love.
The two of them wandered on the road for a while until Jing Zhi felt that Zheng Jing had left. Then he took Zheng yuluo home.

As expected, there was no one else in the vi. Jing Zhi was finally relieved. He changed his clothes, took his wallet, and drove out with Zheng yuluo to buy some things.
The first thing she went to buy was clothes. Zheng yuluo looked brand new from head to toe. She was youthful, gentle, and quiet. Standing beside the tall Jing Zhi, she looked like a little bird and a man, attracting the attention of passersby.
Jing Zhi was still wearing his hat. He used to be a celebrity. Although he had retired from the entertainment industry, he was still afraid that someone would recognize him and cause inconvenience to his and Zheng yuluos lives.
Zheng yuluo was fine. She had been a supporting role without any lines in her previous shows, so few people knew her.
Given that Zheng yuluos cooking skills were so-so, Jing Zhi didnt ask her to cook. Instead, he took her to a Western restaurant to eat steak.
After eating and drinking to their fill, Zheng yuluo dragged Jing Zhi to the supermarket in high spirits. She wanted to buy everything she saw, as she felt that she would be able to use them in the future. After a while, the cart was full.
Jing Zhi followed behind her, pushing the cart. He looked at her gently. He didnt object to anything she wanted to buy. He would even pick out the colors and styles with her.
When no one was paying attention, he would kiss her gently, then hold her soft hand, reluctant to let go.
She thought of him. She was going to live with him. He would no longer be alone in his life.
It was really good!
Zheng yuluo snuggled up to Jing Zhi and strolled around leisurely.
She never knew that shopping in the supermarket could be so interesting! She had never gone to the supermarket or shop before.
Do we have enough dishwashing liquid at home? Why dont you buy another bottle?
Okay, Ill buy a bottle.
A packet of tissues, wet wipes, and rolls of paper each?
How is one packet enough? every time you cry, well buy one packet of tissues. Well buy a few more!
Zheng yuluoughed and punched Jing Zhis chest.You areughing at me again! Dont mention this, or Ill Cry For You!
She liked it when Jing Zhi said the word our home. It gave her a strange sense of warmth and happiness.
The supermarket had everything they needed. Zheng yuluo picked out a pair of cute pink slippers and a pair of blue slippers for Jing Zhi.Is it good?
The pair I gave you was a pair?
Yes, couple slippers!
Ill buy!
Do you want to buy underwear? I dont remember you wearing any underwear!
Should I take off my pants now and show you what Im wearing underneath? Jing Zhi asked, raising an eyebrow.
Zheng yuluo looked at him in disdain.Exhibitionist! Its fine if you dont want it, Ill just buy it for myself!
No, well buy it together! Is there a couple design for this?
Ill look for it
Zheng yuluo looked around for a long time but did not see any matching underwear. However, she chose a simr color and it looked like a matching pair.
Jing Rui was cleaning up the mess for them when they were shopping in the supermarket.
Director Zheng, did youe to me to ask my brother to leave your daughter?
Right! Theyre not suitable!
Zheng Jing took Zheng Yuwei to Jing Ruis house, hoping that he could persuade Jing Zhi.
Hes always listened to you since he was little. If you want them to break up, Jing Zhi will definitely agree. As you can see, things always go wrong when theyre together. My daughter was kidnappedst night, and Im afraid that Jing Zhi has something to do with it!
Jing Ruis eyes were cold as he said,
First of all, you know that Jing Zhi has always listened to me since he was a child. You should know that Ive been protecting him since he was a child.
Second, your daughters kidnapping has nothing to do with my brother. Your entry point was wrong, so its been twenty-four hours since the incident, and the case hasnt been solved yet. I think its time to change the director of A citys Public Security Bureau!
Thirdly, I actually hate your daughter very much, so dont you ever bring your daughter in front of me again. Otherwise, if one of them leaves with my brother, the other one will probably disappear as well.
As he spoke, he looked at Zheng Yuwei, who was holding her head high, with a nk expression.
Zheng Yuwei stepped forward and pointed at Jing Ruis nose when she heard thest thing.What are you saying! Fight me if you can! Stop pretending, youre even more annoying than Jing Zhi!
As soon as she finished speaking, she was pped in the face.
She fell to the ground after being pped, and her mouth was instantly filled with the taste of blood.
Han Feng retracted his hand and walked in front of her. He said coldly,Get out! Youre not worthy to fight against our young master!
Zheng Jings face changed immediately. He said angrily,What do you mean, Jing Rui? Im your elder, is this how you treat your guests? Wei Wei didnt even provoke you, yet your people attacked her. Are you trying to force me to do it?
My family name is Jing, and your family name is Zheng. Im not rted to you by blood, so youre not my elder. I already said that I hate your daughter. Shes asking for it, so dont me me for being merciless!
Jing Rui was still sitting there, calm and cool.
Do you think Im like Jing Zhi, who cares about Zheng yuluos feelings and doesnt dare to touch you? No, no, no, Im much more clear-headed than Jing Zhi. Absolute power is more effective than any other means.
Han Feng, take Zheng Yuwei away! When did Zheng yuluo marry Jing Zhi? when did he send her back to the Zheng family? If Zheng yuluo doesnt get married, shell have no light for the rest of her life!
Yes, Han Feng replied. He stepped forward and pped Zheng Yuwei, who was struggling to run away, unconscious. Then, he carried her and left.
Zheng Jing tried to stop him in a hurry, but Gao ya, who was standing in front of him, punched him to the ground.
Boss, is this the quality of A citys Public Security Bureau Director? Boring! I thought we could have a fight!
Jing Rui ignored the cold wind and said to Zheng Jing, who was lying on the floor, coldly,You can leave now. Its up to you to sacrifice one for one, or both.
Zheng Jing got up from the ground with his hands on his chest and walked out, suppressing his anger.
He could not stop Jing Rui, but someone else could!
Jing Rui received a call from Jing Yichen after a while.
Dad, Yinyin is pregnant! Were having a child now, what gift do you n to give us?
Jing Rui stopped what Jing Yichen was about to say.
Jing Yichen was stunned for a moment and then the phone was snatched away by Shangguan ning.
Shangguan ning discussed Shuyins pregnancy with Jing Rui excitedly and told him some things to take note of, leaving Jing Yichen aside.
In the end, Shangguan ning hung up the phone happily before Jing Yichen could even talk to Jing Rui.
Jing Yichen could only shake his head helplessly. It seemed that whatever he said for Zheng Jing would be useless.
Jing Ruis attitude was firm.

Chapter 1373: Mom, help!
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng Jing went home in anger and frustration. Zheng Lun came up to him and asked when she saw Zheng Yuwei was not back. Wheres Wei Wei?
She was taken away by Jing Ruis men. I was too useless and failed to protect her.
Not only did he not bring Zheng yuluo back, he had also lost Zheng Yuwei. Zheng Jing was worried to death.
He told her that Zheng yuluo had insisted on following Jing Zhi, and then repeated what Jing Rui had said. Zheng Lun burst into tears.Then let luoluo marry Jing Zhi. We cant risk Weiweis life! I only have these two precious daughters, and luoluo is always gued with disasters. I cant let anything happen to Weiwei!
Zheng Jing was in pain. He held his head and said in a low voice,Let me think about it. There might be another way.
Dont even think about it! Wei Wei had been knocked unconscious, who knew what those people would do? If anything happens to her, how am I going to live? Luoluo was just kidnapped. When we saw her, her clothes were all torn and her body was covered in wounds. Do you want Wei Wei to be like this?
Both the palm and the back of the hand were meat. Zheng Lun was not worried about Zheng yuluos safety, but Zheng Yuwei was not!
Theres nothing wrong with Jing Zhi. We know him well and family Jing wont mistreat him. I cant stand this happening every two to three days! If you dont go, I will go to Jing Rui myself!
Dont go!
Zheng Jing stopped his wife at once. He was really scared of Jing Rui now. He was much more ruthless than Jing Zhi. He hit people whenever he wanted to. What if Zheng Lun got hurt?
His chest was still aching from the punch he received.
Dont worry. Weiwei is with Jing Rui. She wont be hurt. Its different from luoluos kidnapping.
Weiwei graduated from a military school. Shes the best at closebat. Normal people cant do anything to her. Shell be fine!
Zheng Jing finally managed to persuade Zheng Lun.
The two of them sat at the dining table, guarding arge table of food, but they could not eat at all.
Usually, their two daughters would be at home and apany them for dinner. Now, neither of them was with them. One had just been kidnapped, and the other was in the middle of it.
The house was empty. Zheng Lun couldnt help but cry on the table.
Zheng Lun and Zheng Jing couldnt eat, but Zheng Yuwei couldn t.
She had been thrown into a basement. The door was not closed, and Han Feng was sitting on the chair at the door, slurping down the hot beef noodles that Gao ya had sent him. He was not afraid that Zheng Yuwei would run away.
Zheng Yuwei had been looking for Zheng yuluo for the whole day and was already hungry. After being knocked out, she woke up to see Han Feng eating his noodles happily, which made her even hungrier.
Hey! All the prisoners in the prison have food to eat. Why dont I have any? I want to eat beef noodles!
Han Feng was still mad at her for pointing at Jing Ruis nose and talking to him, so he ignored her and continued to eat.
She was still alive and kicking, and she still had the strength to shout. She was not hungry anymore!
The cold wind had been following Jing Rui all year round, and he had developed a habit of eating quickly.
The big bowl of beef noodles was finished in a short while, even the soup was finished. Zheng Yuwei was so angry that she stomped her feet, Cant you leave some for me? Im hungry!
When she saw Han Feng take out another Apple from the stic bag and gnaw on it, she instantly pounced on him.Give me the Apple!
Han Feng dodged and Zheng Yuwei missed. She fell to the ground with a plop.
At the same time, she mmed the door of the basement.
When Zheng Yuwei was in military school, she had practiced this kind of fall countless times. She jumped up nimbly and immediately ran.
However, the cold wind was faster than her. In an instant, it had run in front of her and with an over-shoulder throw, Zheng Yuwei was once again in close contact with the ground.
The information I checked showed that your graduation results from the military school were among the best. Looking at your skills now, you must have cheated in your graduation results, right?
Han Feng munched on the Apple and looked at Zheng Yuwei coldly.Or, your school is too bad. The students you teach only know some mediocre martial arts.
Zheng Yuwei was quite angry with him. She quickly got up from the ground, got into a fighting stance, and shouted coldly,Come on, lets have apetition! That was a sneak attack, it doesnt count!
Han Feng nced at her and said,fancy moves. Then, he punched Zheng Yuwei in the chest.
Zheng Yuwei had no power to fight back at all. She was forced to retreat by the huge force and unknowingly, she had retreated back to the basement.
She leaned against the wall, rubbing her aching chest as she scolded,Are you still a man? Youre taking advantage of me on purpose! Shameless! Obscene!
It turned out that Han Fengs punch hadnded on half of her chest.
Han Feng, however, did not feel anything. At most, he felt that the feeling was a little different. It was fine as long as he could win the fight. Did he have to avoid the sensitive parts of women?
Everything he had learned were killing moves. If it wasnt for Zheng Yuweis special identity, he wouldnt have yed with her like this.
Women were so troublesome. Apples were still better. Gao ya would just bring him two more.
At oneo clock in the morning, Jing Rui saw Zheng Lun, who hade in to find Zheng Yuwei.
He didnt want to wake up Shuyin, so he went to the garden to see Zheng Lun.
Zheng Lun had sneaked out of the house. She couldnt help but ask Shangguan ning for Jing Ruis address behind Zheng Jings back and then came to find him.
Jing Rui, please let Weiwei go! I agree to luoluo and Jing Zhis marriage, okay?
Zheng Jing didnt convey my conditions clearly, did he? I told you, Zheng Yuwei can only go home when Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi are married. Otherwise, shell keep getting hit.
Jing Ruis expression was indifferent. He didnt change even a bit because of Zheng Luns pitiful look.
Gao ya, get Han Feng to bring Zheng Yuwei over. He waved his hand.
Five minutester, Zheng Yuwei came. She hugged Zheng Lun and cried,Mom, help! I dont want to stay here any longer. They didnt give me food and even beat me!
The lights in the garden were not very bright, but Zheng Lun could still see her daughters swollen face and dirt all over.
Zheng Lun was crying even harder than Zheng Yuwei.Wei Wei, my daughter! How could they be so cruel! Where are you hurt? let me see!
Im hurting all over! Im so hungry, I want to eat something!
Han Feng rolled his eyes. She had been fighting with him for the entire night and had used up a lot of energy. It would be strange if she wasnt hungry!
He knew very well that Jing Rui was using Zheng Yuwei to pressure Zheng Lun. She cared about her daughter, so she would make full use of the time to deal with her daughters Affairs.
In fact, Zheng Yuwei didnt study in the military school for nothing. She looked bruised and swollen, but she actually knew how to protect herself. Han Feng also knew how to deal with her, and Zheng Yuwei only suffered superficial injuries.
Chapter 1374
Chapter 1374: How about I give you a kiss?
Trantor: 549690339
But Zheng Yuwei was so miserable that Zheng Lun was almost scared to death.
She held her daughter in her arms and begged Jing Rui to let Zheng Yuwei go, but Jing Rui was unmoved. He waved his hand and the cold wind hit Zheng Yuwei unconscious, then carried her away.
Zheng Lun was scared to death. She thought that Jing Rui was really going to do something to Zheng Yuwei. She went home crying and woke Zheng Jing up in the middle of the night. She described Zheng Yuweis miserable state and urged Zheng Jing to agree to the marriage between Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi.
Jing Ruis move was very effective.
The pressure on Zheng Jing increased exponentially. Zheng Lun had cried so much that she had lost her voice and refused to eat. She took out the household register and Zheng yuluos ID card and asked Zheng Jing to send them to Zheng yuluo as soon as possible.
He wanted Zheng yuluo to marry Jing Zhi as soon as possible for the sake of her sisters suffering.
After only one day, Zheng Lun seemed to have aged by more than ten years.
Zheng Lun was only in her 40s. She had been loved by her parents and husband and had never been wronged. After getting married, she still lived like a young girl and didnt have to worry about anything. She looked young and well-maintained, like a woman in her 30s.
But now, she seemed to have aged a lot.
Luoluo has always liked Jing Zhi, and Jing Zhi also likes luoluo. You can tell from the gift he gave luoluo. Hell love luoluo very much in the future. I didnt agree with you getting Deng kun to be luoluos new boyfriend. Shouldnt you find someone you like when you get married?
Zheng Luns voice was hoarse and her eyes were swollen. She had never quarreled with Zheng Jing in all these years and now she wanted to scold him.
Unfortunately, she had limited vocabry, so she could only keep urging Zheng Jing to find Zheng yuluo.
This is luoluos matter. How can you use Wei Weis life to exchange for it? Her daughter had been beaten so badly that she couldnt even eat! If luoluo finds out, shell feel guilty too!
Zheng Lun almost had a mental breakdown, and so did Zheng Jing.
So, the next day, Zheng Jing was forced to take the household register and Zheng yuluos ID card and go to Jing Zhis Vi.
But he missed!
Jing Zhi was afraid that Zheng Jing woulde and take Zheng yuluo away again, so he took a lot of daily necessities that Zheng yuluo had picked and went to stay in the hotel with her.
During this period of time, Zheng Yuwei was still stubbornly insisting on peting with Han Feng.
Gao ya came to deliver food to Han Feng, and when he saw Zheng Yuwei lying on the ground panting heavily without caring about her image, he couldnt help but me her,Hanfeng, youre too much. Just keep an eye on her and dont let her run away. Dont hit her, or itll be hard to exin when she dies.
Han Feng was so angry that he red at her.Its this woman who doesnt know her ce and wants to challenge me. Im just sitting here, but she will kick me every ten minutes. Do you think I should just sit here and let her kick me?
Oh, then he should be beaten up! These are your favorite fresh meat dumplings with shepherds purse. Boss specially instructed the kitchen to make them. You should eat more, youll hit me when youre full.
Gao Yawens quiet appearance revealed a harmless smile. He handed him arge box of dumplings, fruits, and mineral water. Without even looking at Zheng Yuwei, he turned and left.
Zheng Yuwei got up from the ground and said,Hey, hey, hey! You, where is my food? I want to eat!
She had been locked up for two nights and a day. She had only drunk a little water and eaten a small bun. Now, she was so hungry that she was seeing stars!
Gao ya acted as if he didnt hear anything and quickly left without a trace.
Seeing that she couldnt get food, Zheng Yuwei immediately threw herself at Han Feng.
Han Feng didnt even raise his head and supported Zheng Yuweis body with one hand.
Coincidentally, his hand was ced on Zheng Yuweis plump and soft spot.
Zheng Yuwei immediately shouted,where are you touching?! Youre a hooligan! Youre shameless!
Han Feng retracted his hand as if nothing had happened. He opened the lunch box, broke apart the disposable wooden chopsticks, and began to eat the dumplings.
Among Zheng Yuweis favorite food, dumplings were also ranked first. At this moment, she especially missed the tender and juicy meat-filled dumplings at home. Watching Han Feng eat them one by one, she sat on the ground and wailed,Mom, I want to go home! They didnt even treat me this cruelly in the military school! There was still meat to eat in the military school! I want to go home! Dad, mom,e and save me!
Seeing the dumplings in Han Fengs lunchbox disappear one by one, Zheng Yuwei cried for a while before carefully squatting beside him. She swallowed her saliva and begged,Can I have one too?
If I let you eat, youll have the strength to hit me and run?
Im not running! I wont hit you anymore! I cant beat you even if I eat a hundred dumplings!
Ill definitely be obedient! Ill go out after my sister and Jing Zhi get married. I wont run away again!
Hanfeng, youre the most handsome and the best. Give me something to eat!
For the sake of food, Zheng Yuwei made a vow and tried all sorts of ways to please him.
He had to get the food first!
Otherwise, he wouldnt have the strength to run!
However, Han Feng was not stupid and refused to let her eat it. He only picked the smallest Dragons Eye from the fruit and threw it to her.This is your lunch, nothing else.
If Zheng Yuwei could beat the cold wind, she would definitely beat the cold wind into meat paste!
It was a small Dragons Eye the size of a fingernail. After the skin and core were removed, the little bit of meat left was not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth!
She really wanted to throw the dragons eye back to Han Feng, but she was unwilling to.
Mosquito meat was also meat! A Dragons Eye is bigger than a mosquito, right?
She quickly peeled the dragons eye and stuffed it into her mouth.
The sweet taste made Zheng Yuwei, who had never liked to eat these things, want to swallow the core as well!
Why didnt she know that dragons eyes were so delicious before?
Unfortunately, a Dragons Eye could only fill the gaps between her teeth. Zheng Yuwei felt that it was fine if she didnt eat anything, but she felt even hungrier after eating a little!
She kept circling around the cold wind, trying to grab a dumpling to eat or snatch his bag of fruits.
However, she tried several angles, but the cold wind blocked her perfectly.
He could still sit there steadily and eat the dumplings unhurriedly.
Zheng Yuwei licked her lips and tried to probe,You like to touch| Breasts, right? You can touch it! I wont scold or hit you, as long as you can give me food.
Han Feng almost choked to death on the dumplings he ate!
Cough, cough, cough
You dont like it? How about I give you a kiss and you give me a dumpling to eat? This is my first kiss, its very valuable!
Shut up!
Hanfeng, you cant go too far. How about You give me a dumpling after two kisses? Three kisses, thats all!
Chapter 1375
Chapter 1375: Ill just treat it as being bitten by a Toad
Trantor: 549690339
Han Feng had never seen a prisoner as lively as Zheng Yuwei!
A moment ago, she was about to fight with him, and the next moment, she was about to kiss him a few times.
He was really flexible!
If she were a man, she would definitely be able to achieve great things.
Han Feng unscrewed a bottle of water and suppressed his coughing. Zheng Yuwei, who was beside him, saw the opportunity and pounced on him directly. She hugged him tightly and refused to let go.
This time, she had learned her lesson and did not hit him with the cold wind. Even if she continued to wrap herself around him like an octopus, it would be difficult for the cold wind to get rid of her.
I want to drink water! Im Dying of Thirst!
Han Feng was knocked by Zheng Yuwei and couldnt help but take two steps back. The mineral water in his hand sshed on his face.
Zheng Yuwei couldnt drink the water in the bottle. Seeing that Han Fengs face was dripping water, she immediately put her mouth on Han Fengs chin and sucked.
Han Fengs entire body stiffened, and then he instantly threw Zheng Yuwei out.
Zheng Yuwei fell to the ground and her whole body was in pain.
As shey there, she thought of how pitiful she was and instantly started crying for her life.
This time, she was really sad and her tears fell.
Han Feng sat back on the chair, picked up the chopsticks, and wanted to continue eating the dumplings. He nced at the disheveled and dusty-faced Zheng Yuwei, finally put down the chopsticks again, and said,Come and eat!
Zheng Yuwei ignored him and continued to cry.
If you dont eat, Ill eat it all. You wont have anything to eat for the whole day!
Zheng Yuweis crying stopped abruptly. She couldnt care about the pain on her body anymore. She jumped up and snatched the box of dumplings away quickly. She rubbed her dirty hands on her body and picked one up to eat.
She ate too quickly and almost choked. She quickly snatched the mineral water from Han Fengs hand and took a gulp. She took the dumplings and water and shrank into a corner of the basement, eating quickly.
Han Feng leaned against the door of the basement and looked at Zheng Yuwei gobbling down the food. He couldnt bear it.
She was just a girl who had suffered an undeserved cmity. She was only 22 years old and was locked up here. It was already very impressive that she had such a strong psychological quality and fighting ability.
An ordinary girl would definitely break down after being treated like this.
He must have suffered a lot when he was in the military school.
He had noticed before that Zheng Yuweis hand was different from an ordinary girls hand. Her palm had a slight callus, and so did her fingers. It was obviously a result of long-term training.
Han Fengs own hands also had thin calluses. He knew that these unremarkable calluses meant that its owner had experienced the harshest training and repeated practice that made him sweat like rain.
Zheng Yuwei quickly finished the remaining half of the dumplings in the cold wind. She could not bear to drink all the water, so she only drank a little.
Then, she picked up the bottle cap that Han Feng had thrown away from the ground, crushed the bottle, twisted the cap back on, and stuffed it into her clothes to prevent Han Feng from snatching the water back.
She sat on the ground without a care for her image, touched her bulging stomach, and sighed,I didnt know the dumplings with shepherds purse filling were so delicious. When I get out, Ill ask my mom to make me a big pot! I eat it every day!
It was a delicacy!
Was Jing Ruis chef that good at cooking?
Zheng Yuwei hated Han Feng for eating so many dumplings and felt that he was an eyesore.Hey, you, youre blocking my sunlight. Stay away from the door!
The cold wind did not move, still leaning against the door.
He nced at Zheng Yuwei, who immediately turned hostile after the meal, and suddenly felt that there was no need for him to sympathize with her!
This girl was so heartless. He had saved his lunch and let her eat half of it, but she actuallyined that he was blocking the light!
He didnt call her by name, he just called her hey!
She should have starved to death just now!
Zheng Yuwei satzily. When she recovered a little strength and felt that her digestion was almostplete, she sat up from the ground and ran out.
She had just run out of the door when the cold wind caught her back.
He carried her on his shoulder, entered the basement, and threw her on the ground like a sack.
However, Zheng Yuwei jumped up instantly and continued to run out perseveringly.
Han Feng caught up with him again and carried him back.
After going back and forth for more than a dozen times, even Han Feng was exhausted!
He really wanted to give himself a tight p!
Why did he give her dumplings? she had the strength to run after she was full!
He pressed Zheng Yuwei down on the ground without any hesitation, reached into her clothes, and took out the bottle of water she had crushed.
This girl couldnt even let her drink water!
This is my water, give it back to me! Zheng Yuwei cried out, her heart aching. Youre so shameless, You Took Advantage of Me on purpose, touched my chest, and took the water from my clothes! Youve ruined my innocence!
However, Han Fengs hand didnt even touch her skin. He just urately pinched the bottle and pulled it out.
He threw the water out of the door and said indifferently,If you have so much energy to do this, you should just die of thirst.
I was wrong, I was wrong! Ill listen to you, I wont make a scene. Give me the water, I cant live without water! Han Feng, youre the best. You wont hold a grudge against a girl like me, right?
Zheng Yuwei went all out. She grabbed Han Fengs clothes, leaned over, and kissed Han Fengs face.Look, Im so sincere. Give me water!
What a joke, the water that she had saved with great difficulty was actually taken away! Zheng Yuwei was unwilling to ept this!
Anyway, a kiss wouldnt kill anyone. The cold wind man was also handsome. If she kissed him, she didnt know who would be at a disadvantage!
Han Feng wiped the saliva off his face and said expressionlessly,Youd better find a mirror and look at yourself. Ill just treat it as if I was bitten by a Toad.
Pei Pei Pei! Youre the toad! A Toad! Im a Swan!
Although Zheng Yuwei was scolding Han Feng, she couldnt help but take out her phone that had run out of battery from her pocket. She used the small mirror on the phone case to look at her face.
Oh my God, who was that crazy person with a dirty face inside?
Why did it feel like he was a beggar?
She kicked Han Feng hard and said,its all your fault! My beautiful face is now an ugly monster because of you!
Han Feng grabbed Zheng Yuweis leg.If you use violence again, dont me me for being impolite!
Han, now that youve touched your chest, have you changed to touching your legs? Youre shameless! How could Jing Rui have a subordinate like you? Hmph, he must not be a good person!
Han Fengs surname wasnt han at all, but Zheng Yuwei didnt know what his surname was. When she scolded people, she used it as a surname because it would make him look more imposing.
Han Feng couldnt stand people talking bad about Jing Rui, so he went up and punched Zheng Yuwei.
Zheng Yuwei was not to be outdone, so the two of them fought for the whole afternoon.
In the evening, Zheng Lun came to see her daughter with a lot of food.
The mother and daughter cried in each others arms. Zheng Lun was heartbroken to see her daughter in such a horrible state. She kept promising her that Zheng Jing had agreed to let Zheng yuluo marry Jing Zhi and that he would save her soon.

Chapter 1376: I agree to your marriage
Trantor: 549690339
After Zheng Lun left, Han Feng took away all the food she had brought and carried Zheng Yuwei back to the basement. He sat on the chair outside and started to pick and choose the beef jerkies and preserved fruits that Zheng Lun had brought.
Zheng Yuwei was furious. She fought with the cold wind as if she didnt care about her life, but she didnt get the upper hand from the beginning to the end. Instead, she exhausted herself and her stomach rumbled with hunger.
My mom brought this for me. Do you have any humanity left in you? how can you eat my food?
Dont eat my dried mango! Dont eat my little cake!
Can you leave some for me?
Zheng yuluo didnt know that her sister was suffering because of her. She stayed in the hotel with Jing Zhi and watched the surveince video outside the bar to find the group of people who had kidnapped her.
Zheng yuluo would never forget that night.
Now, as long as she thought about it, her heart would be filled with fear and terror.
She couldnt understand who would hate her so much and want her dead.
She had many bruises all over her body, and there were also blue and purple palm prints on her cheeks. Her hands and feet had been cut by sharp des. Those people had not treated her as a human at all.
Jing Zhi had been searching for an entire day, but there were very few clues.
The other party was very careful and kept changing cars and people. That day, he had left in a hurry with Zheng yuluo. Although he had injured the people who had hurt Zheng yuluo, they had quickly disappeared from the abandoned factory.
The phone number that he had used to extort money was also not found. The other party had used a new number and threw it away after using it.
Jing Zhi carried Zheng yuluo to the bed, lifted her clothes, and carefully applied medicine for her with a cotton swab.
Mu Sen said that this is the best medicine in their family. The bruises will go away in two days and it wont hurt anymore.
Zheng yuluoy on the bed and muttered a soft hmm.
She didnt know how many times she had been kicked. The bruises really hurt when she touched them, and they always reminded her of the scene from that night.
She didnt dare to think about it, but she had to.
She was the only one who saw the faces of those people. She didnt see the face of the so-called sugar daddy, but she could roughly describe his body shape and voice.
Zheng Jing was the best at solving cases.
Unfortunately, Zheng yuluo did not dare to go to him now.
Zheng Jing didnt go to solve the case or catch those people at the first moment, but went to Jing Zhis house to take her home.
Zheng yuluo thought that maybe manager Zheng did not have enough clues and evidence. The reason why he knew that she had been kidnapped might have been because he had heard it from mu Sen.
All mu Sen knew was what Jing Zhi had told him.
After applying the ointment, Jing Zhi held Zheng yuluo in his arms andforted her in a low voice.Yuluo, dont be afraid. Such a thing wont happen again. Those people can definitely be caught. Ill go find my brother tomorrow. Hes more capable, so we should be able to find some clues.
Although he might be scolded, Jing Zhi had to go to Zheng yuluo for her safety, even if Jing Rui scolded him.
Zheng Jing spent the whole day and used all his power to find out where Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo lived at midnight.
He entered the hotel with a cold face and knocked on the door.
The moment Jing Zhi opened the door, he almost reflexively closed it.
Zheng Jing showed him the things and asked, Wheres my daughter? This is her household register and identity card. I agree to your marriage!
Jing Zhi seriously suspected that he had been too happy with Zheng yuluo for the past two days, so much so that he was hallucinating that he was even happier!
What Zheng Jing had given him was not some kind of bomb or poison, was it?
How could he agree to Zheng yuluos marriage?
Seeing that Jing Zhi didnt pick it up, Zheng Jing took it and went into the hotel room.
Zheng yuluo walked out of the room and said,Dad, Im not going home! Dont even think about bringing me back!
All right, all right, I have raised you for so many years in vain! Zheng Jing was so angry that his mouth almost twisted. Ill give you your household register, so you can get married to Jing Zhi now!
Ah?
Zheng yuluos eyes widened in shock and disbelief as she took the household register and ID card.
She turned it over and over again to make sure that it was all true.
Daddy, you Did someone change her heart?
Or did he change to a new way of deceiving and use a gentle way?
Jing Rui took your sister and locked her in the basement. She was not only fed, but also beaten. He said that unless you marry Jing Zhi, Weiwei will be locked up!
What?
There was too much information, and Zheng yuluo felt that her brain was not enough.
What did her marriage have to do with Zheng Yuwei?
And didnt Jing Rui hate her?
Jing Zhi also came over and found Zheng Jings words unbelievable.
Thats impossible. My brother has never agreed to my rtionship with yuluo! Did Zheng Yuwei do something wrong and offend my brother?
Zheng Jing didnt want to exin anything to these two people. He was annoyed just by looking at them.
Ive talked to the director of the Civil Affairs Bureau and asked him to open the door for you. Jingzhi, take your household register and ID card and take yuluo to register your marriage!
No way, isnt this too fast?
Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi were both stunned. They both thought that this might be Zheng Jings scheme to trick Zheng yuluo out.
What are you dawdling for? If you dawdle any longer, your sister will lose her life!
Zheng Jing shouted at Zheng yuluo. His heart ached at the thought that his daughter was going to marry Jing Zhi. He felt that his daughter would not be his anymore.
However, if she did not marry this daughter off, the other daughter would be beaten.
Anyway, Zheng yuluo refused to go home no matter what. It was already good enough to save Zheng Yuwei and not let the two of them be outside.
Zheng Jing had been urging them to get married, and Jing Zhi felt that he was too different from before. He took out his cell phone and called Jing Rui.
Brother, you Tied Zheng Yuwei up?
Yes.
If I dont get married to yuluo, shell always be locked up by you And beaten up?
Yes.
Jing Zhi had put the phone on speaker so that Zheng yuluo could hear their conversation clearly. She did not trust Zheng Jing easily, but she knew that Jing Rui would not joke about this.
Zheng yuluo was so anxious that her forehead was sweating.I, I, I Im going to marry Jing Zhi. Let my sister go! Please dont hit her!
Jing Ruis cold voice came from the other end of the phone.I dont like you, and I dont like Zheng Yuwei either. Whether she lives or dies depends on your performance. If anything happens to my brother because of you again, your sister will be considered lucky even if she loses an arm or a leg.
Jing Zhi was at a loss. He scratched his head and said,Um Brother, this isnt very good, is it?
Chapter 1377
Chapter 1377: Getting the marriage certificate
Trantor: 549690339
Yes, its not very good. Its best if Zheng yuluo and Deng kun get married, then youll have to pretend to be magnanimous.
Jing Rui hit the nail on the head and said,Ill wait for your marriage certificate. Then he hung up.
Jing Zhi was dumbfounded. Did his brother have to be so straightforward?
This was way too efficient!
Are you sure its true?
Zheng Jing looked at Jing Zhi and said, Thats enough. Hurry up and leave. My younger daughter is still locked up in the basement. Only your marriage certificate can save her.
Lets go!Zheng yuluo pulled Jing Zhis sleeve.
Jing Zhi came back to his senses and smiled bitterly.No, my household register is still with my dad. Hes in North America now, or maybe Europe
Zheng Jing said directly,you dont need the household register. The certificate of household register issued by the Public Security Bureau has the same legal effect as the household register. I will have someone issue the certificate for you now. You must get it by tonight!
This works too?
Jing Zhi was stunned.
He didnt know that one could get a marriage certificate from the Public Security Bureau!
There was no problem now. Zheng Jing was the director of the Public Security Bureau. It was not a big deal for him to issue a certificate.
Jing Zhi was so excited that his hands were shaking. He held Zheng yuluos hand and said happily,Lets go, yuluo, lets get married!
Half an hourter, two red booklets were handed to the couple.
The two of them felt like they were dreaming!
No, she never dreamed that she would get married so soon!
Jing Zhi sighed in his heart. His brother was so great! She was willing to be a bad person for him.
However, there was more to Jing Rui.
When Jing Zhi and the others were rushing to Jing Ruis house, someone knelt in front of Jing Rui.
It waste at night, and the garden was not very bright. Jing Rui stood with his hands behind his back and said in a cold and harsh voice,Chen Yiqian?
Who are you? Why did you capture me? Youre breaking thew, let me go!
Chen yizhao was pinned to the ground by Gao ya. Her hands and feet were tied together and she could not run even if she wanted to.
She was scared out of her wits and could only shout in a fearsome manner, hoping to give herself some courage.
You extorted six million from my brother. Have you forgotten about it so quickly?
һ漻һ˵Ѹٵʧ嶶ĸˡ
Jing Rui!
This man was Jing Rui!
Its over, its over. She had so much money that she had yet to spend. She would never have the chance to spend it again!
She had learned about Jing Zhis true identity from Deng kun before she had extorted him. She had thought that her n was so thorough and wless that family Jing would never be able to find her, even if they had all the means.
However, she was too naive!
She hid all over the ce, not daring to use her true identity. She tried her best not to appear under the surveince cameras, and did not even dare to enter a good restaurant to eat.
It was not easy for him to get to Thand but he was knocked out before he could even take a sip of the local water.
And then, she appeared here.
This strength was too terrifying!
You think youll be safe if you escape abroad? Do you think that my brothers money is so easy to scam? You know so much about Zheng yuluos kidnapping that youre prepared to die, right?
Jing Ruis indifferent voice carried a kind of Majesty unique to a superior. He was not angry at all, and his voice was not loud, but Chen Yiqian was scared out of her wits when she heard it.
No, no, no, I didnt kidnap her, it has nothing to do with me! I just scammed you of your money. Ill return it to you, all of it! I beg you, please dont kill me!
I wont kill you. Someone else wants to kill you.
Who Who is it?
Jing Rui waved his hand and Gao ya put the sack over Chen yizhaos head again. He then carried her to the basement where Zheng Yuwei was kept.
Seeing that she had left, Jing Rui flicked his wet clothes and went into the vi. He went to the bedroom on the second floor and saw that Shuyin was still sleeping soundly. The coldness on his face disappeared, and a smile appeared on his lips. He kissed her gently.
After Shuyin got pregnant, she had been particrly sleepy.
Jing Rui did not want to deal with Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei at home, but he was worried about leaving Shuyin alone at home, so he had to settle everything in the big garden.
Jing Rui could only feel at ease when he was with Shuyin.
In the basement outside the vi, Zheng Yuwei still hadnt given up on her n to escape. She was still in the cold wind when she saw Gao ya carrying arge mass of things over.
Im done! Han Feng immediately stopped.Our boss has given you a gift!
Gifts?
This was impossible!
Zheng Yuwei sneered,its already good enough that he didnt starve me to death. Why did he give me a gift? If you cant beat me, just say it. You dont have to find such a lousy excuse!
Han Feng could not be bothered with her. He opened the sack and Chen yizhao rolled out of it with her hands and feet tied.
Chen Yiqian?!
Zheng Yuwei knew all of Zheng yuluos colleagues and had done a background check with Zheng Jing.
Moreover, Chen Yiqian had an ambiguous rtionship with Deng kun. Zheng yuluo had even shown her their bed photos.
Therefore, Zheng Yuwei recognized Chen Yiyi at a nce.
Why did you capture her?
Zheng Yuwei looked at Han Feng and Gao ya in confusion,This is the big gift?
Before Han Feng and Gao ya could speak, Chen yiyan cried and said,Zheng yuluo, I didnt kidnap you. It has nothing to do with me! It was all done by Deng kun alone. He said he wanted to y with you, and I just took the opportunity to get a sum of money! I really did not participate in the kidnapping! The people who kidnapped you that day were all men!
Even though Zheng Yuwei looked a little disheveled and her face was covered in dust, she looked so much like Zheng yuluo that Chen Yiqian had mistaken her for Zheng yuluo.
Zheng Yuweis body trembled, and her eyes revealed a cold and fierce light.
She stepped forward and grabbed Chen Yiqians hair. She said angrily,What the f * ck did you say? I dare you to say that again!
Ah!
Chen yizhaos hair was torn, and she screamed in pain. She did not even care why Zheng yuluo was so different from her usual gentle self.
Dont hit me! Ill tell you the truth! I admit that I was the one who gave Deng kun advice, and I found a few people, but I also told Jing Zhi about it! Didnt he go to save you? How can you me me for losing your virginity? Deng kun was the one who raped you!
Rape?
Zheng Yuwei felt her whole body trembling!
What happened to her sister that day?! No wonder she was covered in injuries!
Zheng Yuwei gave Chen Yiqian two tight ps, causing blood to flow out from the corner of her mouth.
This woman was not a good person either. She was the one who came up with the scheme for Deng kun. Damn it!
Chapter 1378
Chapter 1378: Let your brother-inw hit him!
Trantor: 549690339
Stop talking nonsense! Deng kun is my sisters boyfriend. He loves my sister very much! Theyre going to get married. The person who kidnapped my sister cant be him! Speak, who is it?
In fact, Zheng Yuwei had already believed 80% of Chen Yiqians words. However, she knew that it was the truth rationally but she could not ept it emotionally!
If it was Deng kun, wouldnt it be his family who had harmed Zheng yuluo?
When Chen yiyan heard Zheng Yuweis words, she realized that she was not Zheng yuluo, but Zheng yuluos sister.
The fact that Zheng yuluo was a twin was known to everyone in thepany.
No wonder their characters were so different. They were not the same person at all.
Im not talking nonsense! It was really Deng kun! He has always hated your sister for embarrassing him on the day of their engagement. He has always wanted to possess your sister. He couldnt stand it anymore, so he found someone to kidnap her and wanted to have sex with her! Then, Ill dump her!
Chen Yiqian was already scared out of her wits. She had said everything. As long as she could clear her name, she could not wait to reveal all of Deng kuns crimes.
Hes not a good person, hes always been sleeping with me! He doesnt love your sister at all! Hes just pretending!
He has many women! He said that hes been dating your sister so that you two sisters can serve him in bed together in the future!
He promised to give me money and asked me to hire someone to send your sister to an abandoned factory in the suburbs! He also found a lot of gangsters to make them humiliate Zheng yuluo together!
Zheng Yuwei was furious. She lost her mind and grabbed Chen Yiqians neck. She said madly,Im going to kill you! Youre not human!
Han Feng was shocked and quickly pulled her away.Are you crazy? She was the only witness! If she dies, whos going to tell your parents the truth!
Zheng Yuwei threw herself into his arms and cried,its all my fault! I shouldnt have advised my sister to fall in love with Deng kun, and I shouldnt have let her marry him. I know hes a pervert!
He put on such a good pretense. I thought that my sister would be very happy to marry him! That scumbag actually had the nerve to visit my sister on the day she was hospitalized!
I almost killed my sister! I deserve to die! My sister will never forgive me!
Han Fengs body was stiff as he allowed Zheng Yuwei to lean on Him. He wanted to push her away, but seeing her crying so sadly, he put his hand down.
Gao ya stood at the side and looked at Han Feng in surprise. He mouthed,Youve conquered her?
Han Feng red at him and mouthed back, Dont talk nonsense!
Gao yas fair face blushed as he smiled excitedly.Shes pretty!
Han Feng was speechless and decided to ignore his neurotic behavior.
Gao ya looked gentle and quiet, like a shy big boy, but he was actually very ck-bellied and was particrly ruthless when it came to scamming people.
Han Feng did not want to be tricked by him.
He had just retracted his gaze when Zheng Yuwei, who was in his arms, wiped her tears and said fiercely,No, Im going to castrate that bastard Deng kun! Take revenge for my sister!
With that, she turned around and left.
Han Fengs head ached. He quickly took a few steps forward and pulled her back.
Cant you use your brain? Youre so impulsive. Deng kun is fine, but youll send yourself to prison first! Theres definitely someone taking care of him, so you dont need to do anything.
Zheng Yuwei was very close to Han Feng. She raised her head and looked into Han Fengs eyes.Alright, then you go and castrate Deng kun for me! Youre a hundred times stronger than me, and you cane and go without a trace. If you castrate yourself and leave immediately, no one will be able to catch you!
Han Feng was stunned by her train of thought!
The two of them had fought more than a thousand times. Each time, it was a life-and-death battle. Zheng Yuweis moves were ruthless. If it wasnt for his strong abilities, he would have lost his life long ago!
Why should he castrate Deng kun for her?
Han Feng finally couldnt help but curse,Youre crazy!
Youre not going, are you?
Why should I go?
Zheng Yuwei stood on her tiptoes and kissed Han Feng on the lips.Then what about this?
Han Feng was stunned and pushed Zheng Yuwei away.Go back to the basement and stay there!
Im not going back to the basement. Im going to avenge my sister!
Zheng Yuwei ran away, and Gao ya let her leave without chasing after her.
Why didnt you stop her? Han Feng was a little annoyed.
The mission boss gave me was to keep an eye on the woman in the sack. Your woman ran away, so of course you went to chase her!
Han Feng couldnt be bothered to correct Gao yas choice of words and quickly chased after Zheng Yuwei.
A momentter, he came back with Zheng Yuwei on his shoulder.
Zheng Yuwei punched and kicked him on the shoulder,Hooligan! Let me go, I want to get out! This is kidnapping, imprisonment! My dad is the director of the Public Security Bureau. You guys are in trouble!
Zheng Yuwei was like Zheng yuluo. When they encountered something they couldnt solve, they especially liked to say,My dad is the director of the Public Security Bureau.
This was a deep-rooted thought since they were young. The sisters had always thought that Zheng Jing was a police officer and he was the best at catching bad people.
As Zheng Yuwei was scolding, Gao ya received a message from his brother who was guarding outside the vi.Zheng Jing and his people arrived.
He ced Chen Yiqian back into the sack and lifted her up.Hanfeng, lets go. Someone has finallye to take over these two women!
The brothers carried one each and entered the garden. Jing Rui was already there.
Let them in. He nodded at Gao ya.
Gao ya gave an order to the gatekeeper, and the door opened, and the few of them were brought into the garden.
As soon as Zheng yuluo saw Zheng Yuwei, whose hair and clothes were disheveled, she immediately ran to hug her.Weiwei!
When Zheng Yuwei saw her, she immediately cried,Sister! Sister! I miss you so much!
Zheng yuluos tears also fell. The two sisters looked exactly the same, but their crying methods werepletely different. One cried like a Pear Blossom bathed in rain, while the other cried like a lunatic.
Zheng yuluo touched Zheng Yuweis face and hurriedly checked her injuries. Seeing that her face and arms were bruised, she panicked.Wei Wei, did they bully you? Dont cry, let your brother-inw hit him!
Zheng Yuwei was still crying her heart out, but when she heard this, her crying stopped abruptly.
Why does this tone sound so familiar! Those who didnt know better would think that her brother-inw had existed for several years!
Sister, are you really married to Jing Zhi? she asked, wiping her tears away with her sleeve.
Zheng yuluo quickly took out a small notebook from her bag.Youre married, this is the marriage certificate. Wei Wei, youre free! Im sorry, its all my fault for making you suffer. I should havee earlier!
Zheng Yuwei looked at her marriage certificate and heard herining about herself. She suddenly cried again,Sister, Im sorry! Its my fault, I almost got you into trouble! Big sister, hit me hard!
Chapter 1379
Chapter 1379: Happy wedding!
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo was a little confused. She didnt remember her sister doing anything to let her down!
Its okay, its okay. Were biological sisters. Ill definitely forgive you. Dont cry. Why are you so injured?
Zheng yuluo had been kidnapped and vited. Looking at Zheng Yuwei, she thought that she had been vited as well.
However, Zheng Yuwei didnt care about her injuries at all. When she was in the military school, she had suffered more than she was now.
When she heard that Zheng yuluo had forgiven her, she was both happy and sad. She cried andughed like a lunatic.
Jing Rui did not have a good impression of the two sisters, and his face turned even colder when they were crying and quarreling.
Bureau chief Zheng, Ill leave Chen Yiyi to you, he said coldly.Im sure your Bureau can get her to tell us the whole story of the kidnapping case. You dont have to suspect that Jing Zhi has anything to do with Zheng yuluos kidnapping anymore. He was extorted six million Yuan by this woman. I hope you can get the money back for us.
After Jing Rui finished his words, Gao ya threw Chen Yiqian in front of Zheng Jing.
Zheng Jing and Jing Zhi were both stunned.
He had found the murderer so quickly?
Zheng yuluo was shocked to see Chen Yiqian.Its you?
No, no, no! It wasnt me! Chen Yixuan shook her head in a panic. I didnt kidnap you, it was Deng kun! Its all his doing!
Zheng yuluos mind was shocked!
Deng kun?
The scene of that night appeared in Zheng yuluos mind again.
No wonder she felt that the persons figure was so familiar!
No wonder she felt that he was lowering his voice. He was afraid that she would hear him if he used his normal voice!
No wonder after she jumped into the water, someone on the shore shouted,she cant swim!
She knew how to swim. Deng kun was the only one who thought she could not swim!
Deng kun was usually gentle, gentle, and considerate. He rarely spoke loudly. Zheng yuluo would never have thought that the perverted and crazy so-called sugar daddy would be Deng kun!
That night, he had punched and kicked her, insulted her without restraint, pped her, and torn her clothes!
He was worse than a beast!
Was this the real Deng kun?
Zheng yuluo could not believe it!
She only felt as if all the strength in her body had been sucked away in an instant, and she leaned softly on her sisters body.
She muttered,impossible How could it be him? When I woke up in the hospital, he was still by my bed, looking at me with concern
Did Deng kun have schizophrenia?
Otherwise, why would there be such a huge contrast in his personality!
Zheng Jing didnt believe it either. Besides, he couldnt ept the rtionship between the two sisters. He really didnt believe it. Luoluo, dont listen to this persons nonsense. Ill take her back to the police station and interrogate her first. Deng kun likes you so much and is bent on marrying you. He would never do such a thing.
Jing Rui said that he had caught someone. Was he a kidnapper?
Zheng Jing didnt trust Jing Rui and Jing Zhi at all. Who knew if they had set up a trap for them and were waiting for them to fall into it?
Zheng yuluo was simple-minded and easily believed in such a scheme.
On the other hand, Zheng Yuwei seemed to be in a good state. Although she looked miserable, it was obvious that she had not suffered any substantial damage. Otherwise, she would not be in the mood to cry.
When Zheng Yuwei was really facing the threat of life and death, she had always been very rational and calm. She was different from Zheng yuluo and rarely shed tears.
Soon, Zheng Jing left with Zheng Yuwei and Chen Yiqian.
Jing Rui, Jing Zhi, and Zheng yuluo were the only ones left in the garden.
He nced at the dazed Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi, who was holding her in his arms with a distressed look on his face. He felt that the two of them were particrly annoying.
Second uncle doesnt know about your marriage yet. Tell him yourself.
Jing Zhi was silent for a while before he said in a low voice,Brother, thank you!
Jing Rui said calmly,no, I cant just watch you die. I brought you back from North America and helped you regain your memory so that you can live a better life. If you like this woman, I will marry her for you.
Brother, I
Of course, if she tries to court death again, I wont kill her. Ill only kill Zheng Yuwei! So the two of you better not have any more problems, or else Zheng Yuweis death would be too unjust!
Zheng yuluos eyes widened and she said anxiously,Dont touch my sister! This had nothing to do with her! Ill definitely live a good life with Jing Zhi!
Zheng yuluo had almost never quarreled with her sister since she was a child. Their rtionship was better than anyone else S. Zheng Yuwei had been locked up for two days and beaten up because of her. Zheng yuluo was already very sad.
Zheng yuluo could not imagine what would happen if Jing Rui really killed him.
Brother, youd better not touch Zheng Yuwei. I wont do anything stupid in the future. Look, Im on good terms with yuluo now!
That will depend on Zheng yuluos performance. If she cares about her sister, she will live with you obediently. If she doesnt care about her sister, what are you worrying about? Did you forget everything when they tied you up and gave you away?
Jing Rui stood there with a cold look in his eyes and said in an indifferent tone,You may have forgotten, but I haven t!
Zheng yuluo stopped talking when she heard Jing Rui mention that. She held Jing Zhis hand guiltily and did not know what to do.
Jing Zhi looked at her and said softly,She didnt like me back then, but its different now He said.
Alright, say no more. Today is your wedding day. Go home!
Jing Ruis face was expressionless. He really did not like Zheng yuluo, but he could not avoid her.
Gao ya!
Gao ya answered and handed a paper bag to Jing Zhi.
Jing Zhi took it and opened it. It contained the property certificate and some real estate information.
Brother, Whats this?
This is my wedding gift to you. Happy wedding!
Youre my real brother!Jing Zhiughed.
No matter how much Jing Rui disliked Zheng yuluo, he had given them enough face.
Jing Zhi left with Zheng yuluo. They didnt drive, so Han Feng drove them back.
On the way, Zheng yuluo inadvertently saw that Han Fengs arms had many injuries. She suddenly remembered that her sisters injuries seemed to be the same.
Han Feng, whats with your injuries? she asked tentatively.
Han Feng sat in the front and drove. He said coldly without turning his head,Zheng Yuwei called.
So youre the one who injured my sister?
Yes, Han Feng admitted.
Shes been locked up. Have you been watching over her all this time?
Yes.
He was a man of few words, just like Jing Rui. Would their personalities be simr after being together for a long time? Zheng yuluo was a little annoyed.
However, knowing that it was Han Feng who was watching over Zheng Yuwei, and that Han Feng himself was injured, Zheng yuluo was relieved.
Han Feng was Jing Ruis most trusted right-hand man, and he had a good character. He would not do anything bad to Zheng Yuwei.

Chapter 1380: Im not eating you today
Trantor: 549690339
Han Feng sent her to the entrance of the vi and left quickly.
Jing Zhi got out of the car and picked Zheng yuluo up by the waist. Heughed and said,Wife, were home!
Zheng yuluo wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis neck. Her eyes were full of smiles when she thought about how they had registered their marriage that night.
The storm had passed, and all the obstacles between them were gone. They could eat together, watch movies together, and sleep together openly in the future.
Im so happy. I didnt expect to marry you so soon. I feel like Im dreaming. Will everything go back to normal when I wake up tomorrow?
Jing Zhi carried her and strode into the vi.
No, well always be husband and wife!
Jing Zhi was especially grateful to his brother for being so decisive.
He sat down on the sofa with Zheng yuluo in his arms. He felt that everything at home was particrly pleasing to the eye. It was much morefortable than the hotel!
Home was still the best!
Come, take a look at our brothers wedding gift to us!
Jing Zhi had changed the way he addressed her. Zheng yuluo felt an inexplicable warmth. She was going to be a family with Jing Zhi from now on!
Jing Zhis and Zheng yuluos names were written on the property certificate. The house was a detached vi located by the sea, and the area was more than twice the size of the vi they were living in now.
It was very private and surrounded by greenery. It was one of the most popr vi areas in A city in the past two years.
For an older brother to give a congrattory gift like this to his younger brother, it was already a very big gift.
Zheng yuluo knew how important Jing Zhi was to Jing Rui, and she didnt find it strange that he had given her a vi that was worth tens of millions.
What was strange was that he had made her and Jing Zhi marry so quickly.
Hadnt he always been dissatisfied with her? Why would he still help?
Zheng Jing was not satisfied with Jing Zhi and had been trying to stop her from being with Jing Zhi.
Maybe they were two different kinds of love. Zheng Jing loved her, but Jing Rui was more mature and tolerant towards his younger brother.
Now that Zheng Jing had agreed to her marriage to Jing Zhi, she would not go back on her word.
For the sake of her happiness, Zheng Jing would slowly change his attitude towards Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo leaned into Jing Zhis arms, listening to his heartbeat and feeling his breathing. She felt that her whole world was at peace.
I want to go home tomorrow to see my sister, okay?
Were married,Jing Zhi smiled, you can go home whenever you want. If your dad doesnt let youe back, Ill do it now.| Men Yao people are very confident!
He kept the property ownership certificate and took Zheng yuluos hand to the bedroom.
The two of themy side by side on the bed. Jing Zhi asked her,Do you need me to go home with you?
Zheng yuluo was a little hesitant.Forget it. Ill go home and see whats going on.
She didnt want Jing Zhi to suffer at home. If Zheng Jing gave Jing Zhi a cold face, Zheng yuluo felt that she would be very upset and would feel bad for Jing Zhi.
When Deng kun went to their house, the whole family was especially warm to him. Jing Zhi was a thousand times better than Deng kun. If he was treated coldly, Zheng yuluo would probably not be willing to go home.
Zheng yuluo turned around, hugged Jing Zhis waist, and whispered in his ear,Forget it, Im not going back. Ill call Weiwei tomorrow and ask how her injury is.
Jing Zhi lowered his head and kissed Zheng yuluo on the forehead. He smiled and said, Dont worry about me. Go home if you want to. Bring more gifts, dress up, and drive my sports car home. Let your family know that youre doing well!
Then apany me to buy a gift tomorrow morning!
Alright, Ill go with you. Shouldnt we go to sleep now?
Jing Zhi emphasized the word sleep on purpose. Zheng yuluo blushed. She murmured a yes and buried her face in the quilt shyly.
Jing Zhis heart itched at the sight of her embarrassment. He got up, turned off the light, took off his clothes, and got under the nket.
Then, he pulled Zheng yuluo into the nket and unbuttoned her shirt.
Zheng yuluo covered it reflexively, only to realize in the next second that they were already married. They were husband and wife, so this kind of intimacy was necessary.
However, the injuries on her body hurt the moment she touched them. She said a little embarrassedly,How about two days?
Jing Zhi knew what she meant. He chuckled.I just thought that you didnt sleep well with your clothes on. I didnt want to do anything bad. Why do you want me?
Zheng yuluo reached out and touched his body, only to find that he was naked!
He was not wearing any clothes, not even underwear!
No, no, no, Im not taking it off! She quickly retracted her hand in fear. Its good to sleep in it!
But Im notfortable holding it!
Jing Zhi took off Zheng yuluos clothes without a word and held her in his arms. He sighed in satisfaction. Its so good to be able to hug you to sleep. Ive always dreamed of hugging you to sleep like this, and now my dream has finallye true!
Zheng yuluos body was petite and soft, and she exuded a faint fragrance, which made Jing Zhi a little addicted.
His hand involuntarily followed the smooth lines of Zheng yuluos back and stroked her perky butt. He felt Zheng yuluos obvious tremble.
Jing Zhi chuckled and tightened his grip.
Zheng yuluos heart was beating fast. She and Jing Zhi had not been so intimate for a long time.
Their skin pressed against each other and they were entangled intimately. The blushing and heart-racing images of the past surged out, and Zheng yuluos breathing became a little rushed.
But Jing Zhi didnt do anything. He just touched her back and butt.
Zheng yuluo was extremely ashamed. She felt that her body was a little abnormal. She was too sensitive!
Jing Zhis sexy and hoarse voice rang in her ears.Baby, rx. I wont eat you today, but I can make you feelfortable in other ways.
Zheng yuluo was nervous and shy. She grabbed Jing Zhis arm tightly and pleaded with him in a soft voice,Don t, you can just hold me like this. My heart is about to jump out
Jing Zhi lowered his head and kissed Zheng yuluos lips, stopping her from talking.
His hand gently slid over Zheng yuluos body. Jing Zhi knew her sensitive parts very well, and every movement of his made Zheng yuluo tremble.
Jing Zhi wanted to eat Zheng yuluo alive when he heard her panting.
If it wasnt for the fact that he felt heartache for the bruises on Zheng yuluos body, he would have pressed her under him.
He had been looking forward to it for far too long, and the emotions in his heart had umted for far too long.
He would rather suffer by himself than let Zheng yuluo suffer.
There would be plenty of good times in the future. At this moment, as long as Zheng yuluo slept beside him, he was already very satisfied.
She was his from the beginning to the end. She always was.

Zheng yuluo bashfully let Jing Zhi send her up to the clouds. She couldnt help but feel embarrassed. She buried her face in Jing Zhis chest and didnt dare to look up at his eyes.
She pounded Jing Zhis chest and said in a low voice,Dont y any tricks, go to sleep!
Jing Zhi liked to see her embarrassed look and hear her begging for mercy. He didnt sleep and his hands were always busy.
Zheng yuluo went up and down countless times, and finally, she couldnt bear it anymore and fell asleep in Jing Zhis arms.
But Jing Zhi couldnt fall asleep. He didnt need much sleep anyway.
Zheng yuluo was covered in sweat, as if she had been fished out of the water. Her cheeks were glowing with a luster, with a blush that had not faded, and she was pink and lovely.
Jing Zhi took a wet towel from the bathroom and wiped Zheng yuluos face and body. He cleaned her up and then held her in his arms again with satisfaction.
Compared to before, Zheng yuluos body was slightly plumper, and even her chest had grown a circle.
Jing Zhi couldnt stop caressing her. He was still excited until dawn.
Jin Xin came back from the bar early in the morning. He went up to the second floor and found Jing Zhis bedroom door ajar. He couldnt help but feel a little strange.
He remembered that the door was closed when he left. Did Jing Zhie back?
Jin Xin walked into the room with a puzzled look on his face, and then he was left speechless.Why didnt you close the door when you were sleeping? Didnt you go to the hotel to sleepst night? When did youe back?
Jing Zhi came out of his nket, put on some clothes, and dragged Jin Xin out of the bedroom.
Lower your voice, dont wake her up!
Jing Zhi didnt sleep the entire night, but he was in good spirits. He sat on the sofa and said in a good mood,Zheng Jing has agreed to let yuluo and I get married. We got our marriage certificatest night. Now we are legally married, so we dont need to stay in the hotel.
Impossible!
Look, this is my marriage certificate!
Jing Zhi handed the little notebook to Jin Xin and said smugly,My brother helped me. He even gave me a wedding gift!
Jin Xin took the red booklet with a skeptical look. He opened it and saw that it was really a group photo of Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo.
When he asked how Jing Rui had helped her, he finally felt relieved.
Your brother is a man who does great things! Now I understand why family Jing has been able to survive for so many years. The heir will not only inherit hundreds of billions of assets, but more importantly, the inheritance of courage and ability.
Jing Zhi had been messing around for so long, but he still hadnt managed to marry her. He hadnt even decided whether to marry Zheng yuluo a few days ago. He always felt that he would be harming her if he married her.
But Jing Rui had solved the problem quickly.
Cant you learn from your brother? youre living a life thats neither human nor ghost. Look at your hair, which person in their twenties has as much white hair as you do?
Jing Zhi was in a good mood, so he didnt get angry at Jin Xins scolding. He still had a smile on his face as he saidzily,How fashionable! If you have time, you should go and date, maybe youll be a few years younger!
Im still in love. Ive been so busy with the renovation and reopening of the bar these few days, how can I be in love! My sry must be doubled!
Jin Xin was busy, and the thought of a bar made him angry.Dont be in a hurry to date. Quickly take care of those little punks who smashed our bar! Otherwise, people will think that were easy to bully. Many people have been going to the bar to find trouble these days!
Jing Zhi finally put away his rxed expression and said coldly,Theres still someone who dares to court death? Dont worry, after tomorrow, no one will dare to cause trouble again!
Thats for the best. I dont want to deal with those people every day.
Jin Xin yawned sleepily and went back to his room to sleep.
Jing Zhi went back to the bedroom and changed into loose clothes. He saw Zheng yuluo curled up under the nket like a kitten, only her head exposed. She was sleeping very soundly, and he couldnt help but smile.
He kissed her forehead, closed the door for her, and went to wash up.
The bathroom was already filled with the small things that Zheng yuluo had bought.
Cute bear hand wash, pink face wash, couple toothbrushes in couple cups, bright towels with orange patterns
Jing Zhi was brushing his teeth with the orange-vored toothpaste that Zheng yuluo had picked out. He felt that her scent and shadow were everywhere.
The feeling of being surrounded by her was a little blissful.
It was only at this moment that he felt that they were really going to live together forever. He really felt that he was married.
Jing Zhi looked at his bare hands. Not good.
Today, he had to pick a pair of rings. Zheng yuluo would not always wear a big diamond ring. An exquisite and simple pair of rings was suitable for her daily work.
Jing Zhi went into the kitchen after he washed up.
Over the past year, he had refused to eat, and Jin Xin had been eating outside most of the time, so the original chef was no longer in use.
The chef hadnt been here for a long time, and Jin Xin wasnt very professional when it came to cooking, so the kitchen was a bit messy.
Jing Zhi had never cooked much in his life, so he was a little flustered at first, but he got the hang of it very quickly.
After more than an hour, Jing Zhi was finally satisfied.
The fried eggs were fresh, tender, and beautiful. The cucumber slices were also evenly sized. The bacon was done just right, and the fragrance of the meat was overflowing.
He made a simple yet nutritious sandwich, heated up the milk, and made a fruit sd. He ced them on the table.
Zheng yuluo put on her clothes and saw the breakfast on the table as soon as she went downstairs. She ran into the kitchen in surprise and saw Jing Zhi cutting the spiced beef they had bought before. She couldnt help but ask,Did you make all the breakfast?
Jing Zhi turned around and smiled.Yes, I think Ive seen a chef make this before. I dont know if it tastes right. You should try it.
Zheng yuluo stepped forward happily and hugged Jing Zhi from behind.You actually know how to make breakfast! Its unbelievable!
In her memory, Jing Zhi didnt know how to do anything.
I feel so happy! Youre amazing!
Yes, your husband is all-rounded, theres nothing he cant do!
Jing Zhi was full of confidence andplimented himself.
He couldnt admit that he couldnt do it in front of his woman. Jing Zhi wouldnt say anything about being admired by Zheng yuluo, even if he had scalded his hand just now.
However, his silence did not mean that Zheng yuluo could not see it.
She stood next to Jing Zhi and stuffed a piece of beef into his mouth. When it was Jing Zhis turn to feed her, she noticed that his hand had turned red.
Zheng yuluo grabbed his hand.Youre scalded?!
Jing Zhi smiled helplessly,I wanted to act like a hero in front of you, but you found out so quickly. I identally burned myself while frying the eggs just now. Its fine.

Chapter 1382: Vomited blood after being hurt by his daughter
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluos heart ached. She held Jing Zhis hand and said anxiously,Youve got blisters. Do you need to go to the hospital?
No need, itll go away after a while. Im good at recovering.
Then Ill apply some medicine for you and wrap it up?
Jing Zhi hugged her and kissed her hard.Do I need to bandage such a small injury? Your husband isnt made of paper. Dont worry, hell be fine soon. You go out first, Ill go out after Im done cutting the meat.
Hubby. This title made ripples in Zheng yuluos heart. She had a husband too!
Her husband had even woken up early in the morning to make her food!
Zheng yuluo stood on her tiptoes and kissed Jing Zhi.Youre injured, let me cut the meat! Its easy to cut meat, I know how to do it!
Zheng yuluo picked up the knife and began to cut the beef slices without any exnation.
Zheng yuluo originally thought that as a girl, it was easy for her to cut things with her mind and hands.
It turned out that her skills were not as good as Jing Zhi s. After all, Jing Zhi was strong and had good body coordination. His eyes and hands cooperated well, and he could cut things in a few moves.
Zheng yuluo was much worse. She had almost cut the beef into pieces.
Jing Zhi didnt mind. He kept encouraging her.Good cut!
Anyway, the beef was already cooked in the restaurant. It would look better if it was cut into pieces, but it would still be eaten.
Zheng yuluo put the beef that she had cut and the beef that Jing Zhi had cut on a crystal te, and then she felt ashamed.
The beef slices cut by Jing Zhi were of the same size and thickness. They were neatly arranged and looked like the beef tter in the restaurant.
The way she cut the beef Was a little too horrible to look at. It felt like the beef in her hand must have suffered a lot.
No, no, this is too embarrassing!
He must practice hard in the future!
Jing Zhi knew that Zheng yuluo didnt know how to cook. She was a youngdy at home and never went into the kitchen.
He picked up the te with a smile and took Zheng yuluos hand to the living room to eat.
Jin Xin slept for a while and got up to eat something hungry. Then he saw Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo sitting at the table, feeding each other. They were so loving.
Jin,e have breakfast! Jing Zhi called out to him. Ive made a sandwich, try it!
Jin Xin walked to the table and saw the breakfast that belonged to him. He almost thought that he was still in a dream and hadnt woken up at all!
They had lived together for a long time, but Jing Zhi had never cooked before. How could he be so virtuous after getting married?
Jin Xin rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasnt seeing things, then looked Jing Zhi up and down with suspicion.You didnt poison it, right? Dont tell me you think Im affecting your romantic time, so you want me to disappear?
Dont you know that Ive been treating you like air?Jing Zhi red at him.
As he spoke, he suddenly pulled Zheng yuluo into his arms and gave her a kiss.
You see, it doesnt matter if youre here or not. Ill still kiss and hug you!
Jing Zhi was thick-skinned, but Zheng yuluos face was red with shyness. She pped Jing Zhis thigh hard.Eat your food and dont move!
Jing Zhi looked at Jin Xin with sincere eyes.Look, my wife is treating you like you dont exist. She even touched my thigh!
Jin Xin felt that Jing Zhi hadpletely lost his mind after their wedding, and was no longer on the path of a wife-doting maniac.
He simply took his breakfast and went back to his room to eat.
They didnt find him an eyesore when he ate with them. He even despised them for being an eyesore!
After Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo had breakfast, they changed their clothes and drove out.
After shopping for the entire morning, the two of them bought many bags and picked out a pair of rings. They each wore one on their hands.
On the way to the Zheng family, Zheng yuluo kept looking at their rings.
Zheng yuluo liked this pair of rings more than a single diamond ring.
She leaned her head on Jing Zhis shoulder and said expectantly,Do you think my colleagues will be surprised when I go to work tomorrow and find out that Im married so soon? If Liu Xiaoying finds out that Im married to you, shell definitely cry!
Liu Xiaoying often apanied Zheng yuluo to the waiting room, so Jing Zhi certainly knew this girl who was showing her teeth.
Why is Liu Xiaoying crying? Arent you two good friends? She should be happy that youre married.
Aiya, dont you know? Xiao Ying has always liked you! She said you look like a movie star!
After Zheng yuluo said this, she immediately realized that Jing Zhi was really a movie star!
However, in order to get her out of the entertainment industry, he gave up his acting career.
At the thought of this, Zheng yuluo suddenly realized that Jing Zhi had always loved her deeply, but he was not good at expressing it. In the past, no matter what he did, he would always be depressed and cold.
Unlike now, when he could say sweet words.
Zheng yuluos eyes were a little wet. They had missed each other for a long time!
Jing Zhi was sensitive enough to notice the change in Zheng yuluos mood. He drove with one hand and put the other on her shoulder. He asked her in a low voice,Whats wrong, yuluo?
Zheng yuluo stood up and kissed Jing Zhi, then leaned back on him.Im fine. I just feel that Im very blessed!
Jing Zhi didnt ask any further questions. He had learned to give Zheng yuluo enough personal space.
When they arrived at the Zheng family, Zheng yuluo got out of the car with many bags, and Jing Zhi drove away alone.
He had indeed umted a lot of things to deal with in the past two days.
He was going to deal with all those people who had coveted his bar.
He would definitely make those people who smashed his bar pay.
Since he wanted to survive in A city, he had to have prestige.
It would be best if everyone could flee in fear when they heard his name in the future. Otherwise, there would always be some people who didnt know the immensity of heaven and earth who wanted to test his strength.
Zheng yuluo didnt know that Jing Zhi had gone to beat someone up and caused such a big scene that the whole of A city was shocked.
She had brought many gifts home and Zheng Lun and Zheng Yuwei were there to wee her.
Zheng Yuwei ran down from the second floor and hugged Zheng yuluo, shouting excitedly,Sister, I missed you so much! I didnt expect you toe back today. Im so happy!
Zheng yuluos chest hurt from the impact.
How many times have I told you? can you be gentler? you look like a tomboy and you wont be able to get married in the future.
Zheng yuluo hugged her gently and scolded her gently, her face full of smiles.
Zheng Lun put all the gifts in the living room. Seeing her two daughters hugging each other, she was so happy that she burst into tears.
She was also afraid that Zheng yuluo would note home in the future. Now that she saw that Zheng yuluo hade back without any ill feelings, she could finally put her heart at ease.
Chapter 1383
Chapter 1383: Wife-doting maniac
Trantor: 549690339
The three of them excitedly unwrapped the gifts and chatted. Zheng yuluo could not help but lift her sisters clothes to see her injury.
Sister, youre already a married person. How can you take off my clothes so casually?
Zheng Yuwei covered her body and refused to let her see, in case the bruises on her body made her sister and mother cry again.
When she got homest night, Zheng Lun had been crying in her arms.
Zheng Lun wouldnt believe her no matter how she exined.
Zheng Yuwei didnt want to exin it again today.
Dont hide,e over and let me see your injuries! What does this have to do with me getting married or not? if I get married, are you not my sister?
Zheng Yuwei quickly changed the topic,didnt Jing Zhi send you home today? Hes not qualified to be a husband. Make him go home and kneel on durians!
Zheng yuluo burst intoughter. She couldnt bear to let Jing Zhi kneel.
He walked me to the door and left. I didnt let hime, in case dad was unhappy and they started fighting again.
Zheng yuluo didnt see Zheng Jing when she entered the room. She asked, Wheres daddy?
Zheng Yuweis mood quickly fell.Dad is still in the police station. He interrogated Chen yizhao overnight and arrested Deng kun. He doesnt admit that he kidnapped you but there is sufficient evidence. Dad is going crazy. If someone didnt hold him back, he would have killed Deng kun.
Zheng yuluos face turned pale at the mention of Deng kun.
If Jing Zhi hadnt appeared, she would never have thought of him and would have probably married Deng kun.
Zheng yuluo was scared at the thought of almost marrying a beast.
His perverted look was so terrifying, who knew what he would do to her after marriage?
Zheng Lun also knew that they had almost sent her daughter into the Tigers mouth. Seeing her daughters pale face, she couldnt help but feel sorry for her.
Luoluo, its all our fault. We almost harmed you. We wont do it again. Ive told your father that well respect your opinions and wont force you to do anything!
In the evening, Zheng Jing went home with a cold face.
Seeing Zheng yuluo sitting in the living room, he was obviously stunned. For a moment, he did not know how to face his daughter.
Deng kun was personally selected by him. After examining him in all aspects, he felt that he was very good, and then he was forced to be by Zheng yuluos side.
However, he only knew today how evil Deng kun was.
What he had done to Zheng yuluo would not be pitied even if he died a hundred times.
If Jing Zhi hadnt arrived in time, Zheng yuluo would have been dead this time, and her body might not even have been intact.
Those desperadoes were crazy. Even though they had been arrested, they were still moring and even openly fought with the police.
Zheng Jing had heard from Chen yizhao that Jing Zhi had received the news that Zheng yuluo had been kidnapped, but he had not even been able to verify the authenticity of the news. He had transferred the money to Chen yizhao without hesitation and then drove to the abandoned factory.
Zheng Jing felt that if it were him, he would not be able to do what Jing Zhi had done.
It was not that he did not love his daughter, but he would suspect that the other party was scamming him. He might hang up the phone directly and call Zheng yuluo first to confirm her safety.
But Jing Zhi didnt even consider whether it was a scam. He paid the money and went to the destination.
An assassin like Jing Zhi, who came from an assassin organization, would know that the chances of being cheated were very high.
He would rather be deceived than waste a second to save Zheng yuluo.
Zheng Jing sighed deeply in his heart. If only Jing Zhi was a normal person, then he wouldnt have any more worries.
Zheng yuluo would be in danger as long as the virus in his body existed.
Although the probability of infection was low, it was real. He couldnt ept his daughter dying from the virus. It was killing him!
Zheng yuluo had already seen Zheng Jing. She stood up and called him softly,Daddy, youre back!
Zheng Jing nodded and walked to her side. After a while of silence, he said in a low voice,Live well with Jing Zhi from now on. If he bullies you,e home to me. That Deng kun, I will definitely make him pay the price.
Basically, she had epted Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo opened her eyes wide in surprise. She had not expected Zheng Jing to change his attitude so quickly. She had thought that it would take a long time.
Seeing her surprised look, Zheng Jing couldnt help but sigh.I know Jing Zhi likes you. If hes fine, Id have agreed to you two being together. But now that youre married, can I still hate him? Wouldnt that be a hindrance to your marriage?
What had happened to Deng kun was a heavy blow to Zheng Jing.
Although he didnt say it, he actually felt extremely guilty towards Zheng yuluo.
He had chosen the wrong person, but his daughter had not. The best thing to do now was to make Jing Zhi treat Zheng yuluo better, instead of giving Jing Zhi a cold face and embarrassing him.
Zheng yuluo was a little happy,dad, you have to treat Jing Zhi better in the future! He wanted toe today, but I didnt dare to let hime. I was afraid that you would be unhappy and that you would scold him!
Zheng Jing was capable of treating Jing Zhi well.
As long as Jing Zhi treated Zheng yuluo well and made her happy, he would be satisfied as a father.
However, it was not enough for the two of them to just register their marriage.
Tell Jing Zhi to get Jing Yiran back. You have to hold the wedding.
Zheng Jing said suddenly,forget it, I will tell Jing Zhi about this myself. Helle to pick you upter. Call him in, Ill talk to him alone.
Dad, talk to him nicely. Dont Despise him when you go up.
Zheng Jing didnt know whether tough or cry. His daughter had only been married for a day and she was already siding with so many outsiders.
When have I ever despised him!
Last time, when he came to our house, I asked him toe in and sit, but you didnt agree no matter what. You kept saying that he was poisonous and so on. It was so unpleasant to hear!
Its a fact that hes poisonous!
Hearing his daughtersints, Zheng Jing felt that he had raised her for nothing.
He had raised her for more than 20 years, and she had been raised by Jing Zhi!
Zheng yuluo stomped her feet anxiously.Even if its a fact, you cant say it. Its a fact that youre ugly, but did anyone say it? There are some facts that cant be said, or it will hurt you!
Zheng Jing was so hurt by his daughter that he almost vomited blood. Was there anyone who would insult their own father like this?
Whos ugly?
He was obviously very handsome!
Fine, fine, fine. I wont say that Jing Zhi is poisonous. However, his violent tendencies were extremely serious. Today, he had started a massacre in the bar Street! We dont even have enough manpower!
Zheng yuluo was shocked. Did he kill someone? Is he injured?
I didnt kill anyone. I just used a more appropriate description! He single-handedly crippled and injured hundreds of people. Its probably going to be on the news tomorrow!
Zheng yuluo immediately said,hes fighting so many people by himself. Isnt he at a disadvantage? No, Im leaving first, I have to find him!
As soon as she finished speaking, Jing Zhi walked in and said in a gentle voice,Yuluo, you were looking for me?
Chapter 1384
Chapter 1384: Seeing is false, touching is true!
Trantor: 549690339
Zheng yuluo was stunned. She quickly walked to his side and sized him up.Are you alright?
What is it?
My dad said that you got into a fight with someone!
Oh, wasnt the bar destroyed earlier? Ive taught them a lesson and they all admitted that it was Chen Yiqian who had hired someone to smash my bar to lure you out so that it would be easier for them to kidnap you.
The bar being smashed was actually rted to her?
What?! Zheng yuluo was shocked and angry.Those bad guys should all be sent to prison!
Dad, are you not going to do anything? she turned around immediately.
Zheng Jing had wanted to give Jing Zhi a good scolding. After all, he had injured so many people today and the bar Street was full of people.
However, after Zheng yuluos question, he couldnt reprimand Jing Zhi anymore. Otherwise, his daughter would probably turn against him andin that he helped the bad guys instead of his family.
Yes, of course. Well arrest all those who have broken thew.
Zheng yuluo was satisfied when she heard that Zheng Jing wanted to catch her.
She saw that Jing Zhi was clean from head to toe. He was wearing the same set of clothes that they had worn when they left the house. There was no blood or dust. She did not believe what Zheng Jing had said about him killing people.
Zheng yuluo was worried that Zheng Jing would reprimand Jing Zhi if he stayed here, so she ignored what Zheng Jing had said about wanting to talk to Jing Zhi and dragged him away.
Mom, dad, well be leaving now!
Jing Zhi would let Zheng yuluo do whatever she wanted. If she said she wanted to leave, he would not stay.
The two of them walked out of the vi hand in hand, got into the car, and left without any hesitation.
Zheng Jing was so angry.
As expected, a married daughter was like water that had been poured out. She didnt even want to have dinner at home!
Was he really that scary?
He ran so fast, and he didnt eat people! At most, she would scold Jing Zhi and tell him to live a good life and not fight all day.
What Zheng Jing didnt know was that Jing Zhi was the best person in Zheng yuluos heart. She couldnt bear to let anyone scold him, especially her parents.
If they were so nice to people like Deng kun, why couldnt they be nice to Jing Zhi?
Therefore, Zheng yuluo did not dare to stay at home for another minute.
She had wanted Jing Zhi to have dinner with her family if the atmosphere was good.
But the moment she saw Jing Zhi, her heart softened. He was so outstanding that he didnt need to suffer for her.
It was wonderful for them to spend time together.
Zheng yuluo took off Jing Zhis clothes as soon as she got home.
Jing Zhi was so shocked that he couldnt stopughing.Wife, we havent seen each other for half a day. You cant be in such a hurry to get it, right?
Zheng yuluo was stunned, then she punched him in the chest.What are you thinking? I just wanted to see if you were injured!
Jing Zhi unbuttoned his shirt one by one, revealing his muscr chest. He said teasingly,Do you want to touch it and see if youre hurt? What you see is false, but what you touch is true!
Zheng yuluo didnt think much of it at first. It wasnt like she hadnt seen Jing Zhis body before. But when he teased her in a flirtatious tone, she blushed immediately.
His body had perfect proportions. Although he had lost a lot of weight, the sense of strength hidden under his muscles was something that women could notpare to.
Zheng yuluo blushed and helped him put on his clothes again.Cant you be more reserved?
How can you me me for this? You took off my clothes as soon as you entered the room, of course I had to cooperate! Besides, youre my wife. I dont need to act reserved in front of you, do I?
Zheng yuluo had never been able to win an argument with him, and when it came to shamelessness, she was even more inferior.
She stomped her foot.Im not going to y with you anymore. Im hungry. I want to eat!
Whats the point of eating? you can eat me. I promise youll be able to eat all kinds of things!
What was going on today?
Zheng yuluo was almost unable to hold on!
Im really hungry, she pouted.What are we having for dinner tonight?
What do you want to eat?
Jing Zhi had no resistance to Zheng yuluos coquettishness. Seeing her pouting, he couldnt help but gently bite her.
With Zheng yuluos current delicate appearance, Jing Zhi would get her anything she wanted to eat. He just wanted to pamper her and let her act like a spoiled child to him forever.
I want to drink mushroom soup, eat fish, eat corn, and eat a lot of delicious food!
The more Zheng yuluo spoke, the hungrier she became. She felt that her mood had improved after being with Jing Zhi, and even her appetite had improved.
Jing Zhi didnt know how to y so many tricks. He smiled and said,Theres fish and meat in the refrigerator, but your husbands cooking skills arent good. Its safer for us to go out and eat. Otherwise, itll be bad if we all get poisoned!
Oh? Zheng yuluos eyes lit up.How about I cook for you?
Wouldnt that increase the chances of getting poisoned?
Zheng yuluo was amused by him.Nonsense! How can my food be poisonous? Come, Ill cook for you! Ill say this first, you have to eat it even if its not good, or I wont make it for you in the future!
Jing Zhi didnt want to dampen her enthusiasm when he saw how excited she was. He promised her firmly,Dont worry, even if I know its poisonous, Ill still eat it!
There were fewer vegetables and more meat in the refrigerator. Zheng yuluo looked around and was a little worried.I like to eat vegetables, what should I do?
Then Ill be a vegetarian with you from now on. I wont buy so much meat next time!
That wont do. Your body needs nutrition, unlike me. You have to eat meat! We can cook a few more dishes in the future. You can eat meat and I can eat vegetables. How good would that be?
Zheng yuluo wanted to make Jing Zhi fatter, so how could she not let him eat meat?
It was hard to gain weight by just eating vegetables.
She really didnt like to eat meat, and she also had the nature of a girl who loved beauty and wanted to maintain a slim figure, so she only ate meat asionally.
Zheng yuluo had never cooked before. ording to the ingredients at home, she searched for the cooking method of various home-cooked dishes on the inte and then began to cook.
When she didnt understand something, she would call Zheng Lun and ask her to teach her how to cook.
What was rare was that Zheng yuluo wasnt good at cutting meat, but she could cook well.
Jing Zhi stayed by her side the whole time, helping her wash the tomatoes, cut the meat, and scale the fish.
The newly-wedded couple was very busy, and the kitchen was full of theirughter.
Jing Zhi had wanted to take Zheng yuluo out to eat, but seeing her smile so happily and her proud face after making a te of tomato scrambled eggs, he felt lucky that they didnt go out.
It turned out that cooking together was a rare kind of fun between husband and wife.
Although it was easier to eat out, it did not feel like home.

Zheng yuluo picked up a tomato with her chopsticks and put it in Jing Zhis mouth. Jing Zhi ate it with a smile.
He actually didnt like sour things. He preferred sweet things. However, this was Zheng yuluos dish. Even if it was sour, it had be sweet.
Very good! My wife is the most virtuous wife in the world. I wish I could marry you earlier!
Jing Zhi was not stingy with his praise. Although Zheng yuluos dish was a little salty, it was already very rare for her to have such a high standard in her first cooking!
Zheng yuluo was very happy, and her whole body was filled with a kind of happy spirit.
Cooking for the man she loved was a very satisfying thing.
Zheng yuluos thinking was more traditional. She had always believed that a qualified wife should at least be able to cook for her husband.
Before she lost her memory, she entered the entertainment industry before she had the chance to practice cooking. After she lost her memory, she faced Deng kun every day and did not have the motivation to cook.
Now, she was starting to like cooking.
Zheng yuluo turned around to make stir-fried meat with chili, while Jing Zhi washed some rice and put it into the rice cooker to cook.
The alluring aroma of food soon wafted out of the kitchen, and Jin Xin was immediately attracted by it.
He didnt even put his bag down and ran straight into the kitchen. When he saw the two busy people, he was shocked.You two, a young master and a youngdy, can actually cook?
Brother Jin! Zheng yuluo greeted him with a smile.Youre back!
Jin Xin shuddered and almost lost his bnce when he heard the word brother Jin!
He was simply overwhelmed by the favor!
Jin Xin didnt even know how to respond!
Jing Zhi red at him coldly.My wife is talking to you. Why are you ignoring her?
Jin Xin didnt have the time to re back. He smiled at Zheng yuluo. Im back, Im back. Yuluo, you know how to cook, youre so virtuous! Im going to have good food in the future!
Zheng yuluo was especially happy to hear someone praise her for being virtuous.Ive just started cooking, so Im not doing very well. Its fine as long as you dont mind.
She knew that it had been Jin Xin who had been taking care of Jing Zhi for the past two years. Jing Zhi had a bad temper, but Jin Xin had never been calctive.
She had never seen a manager who could do this much, so she was grateful to Jin Xin from the bottom of her heart. If Jin Xin also liked to eat her cooking, it would be great.
But Jing Zhi didnt realize that. He said to Jin Xin,My wife made this for me. Its mine! Theres no share for you. If you want to eat it, find your own wife and get married!
I dont want to get married, so why should I? You were the one who said that if theres something for you to eat, then theres definitely something for me to eat. How could you forget so quickly?
Jin Xin didnt care what Jing Zhi said at all. Hed already experienced Jing Zhis venomous tongue a long time ago, and he was immune to it.
He ced his bag on the marble counter in the kitchen, then rolled up his sleeves excitedly and helped Zheng yuluo cook.
The cooking speed of the two of them was obviously much faster, and Jin Xins cooking experience was much better than that of the two rookies, Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi. With him personally demonstrating and teaching her some small tricks, Zheng yuluo felt a sense of enlightenment.
As a result, the kitchen became even more lively. Jin Xin was teaching Zheng yuluo at one moment and arguing with Jing Zhi the next. Seeing that Jing Zhi didnt avoid him at all and was about to kiss Zheng yuluo at any time, he deliberately made fun of Jing Zhi.
The three of them made six dishes and two soups and served them to the table. Zheng yuluo sat at the table, feeling an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
She felt that she had to learn more from Jin Xin. Not only was he good at cooking, but he was also good at making soup. Most importantly, he had lived with Jing Zhi for a long time and knew his preferences like the back of his hand.
For example, Jing Zhi didnt like garlic or ginger. He didnt like tomato fried eggs with salt. He liked tomato fried eggs with sugar.
He didnt really like vegetables. He only liked to eat meat and drink seafood soup.
Zheng yuluo didnt know much about this. Jing Zhi didnt say anything when she was making tomato scrambled eggs. He didnt even mention sugar. He even said it was delicious.
It had been a long time since Jing Zhi had a proper meal with someone else at the table. He used to drink alcohol in ce of his meals. Even if he forced himself to eat something, he would be forced to drink a cup of protein powder by Jin Xin.
The warm feeling of home made Jing Zhi so happy that he wanted to cry. He suddenly wanted to drink and celebrate their first formal dinner.
Zheng yuluo and Jin Xin refused to let him drink.
Zheng yuluo poured a ss of orange juice for Jing Zhi, Jin Xin, and herself,Alright, lets drink orange juice instead of wine! I wish us to be together forever and be happy forever!
Jin Xin originally didnt like Zheng yuluo, but after one night, he had changed his opinion of her.
She waspletely a soft and cute little girl who didnt have many opinions of her own. She would listen to all your opinions and was very obedient.
Her voice was as gentle as water, and her eyes were so clear that Jin Xin didnt dare to speak loudly to her in case he scared her.
After a night of close interaction, Jin Xin suddenly understood why Jing Zhi liked Zheng yuluo and why he couldnt forget her.
Her personality suited Jing Zhi very well.
Only someone like her could soften Jing Zhis heart.
It was obvious that Zheng yuluo loved Jing Zhi very much. It was obvious that she valued Jing Zhi more than herself.
Jin Xin raised his ss and happily shouted,cheers! He drank the orange juice in one gulp, treating it like wine.
Jing Zhi didnt force her to drink. In fact, he still loved Cheng more. He just wanted to numb himself with alcohol, not because he really liked it.
After the three of them had their fill, Jing Zhi drove Zheng yuluo and Jin Xin to the bar.
The waiting bar had been redecorated and would resume business that night.
Jing Zhi had a special feeling for this bar, and Zheng yuluo liked it here too, so the two of them came to y together.
Perhaps it was because Jing Zhi had beaten up a bunch of hooligans that day, but the waiting bars business was booming.
In such a powerful bar, they could have more fun here, and they didnt have to worry about anyoneing to find trouble.
The boss of the bar was extremely powerful and had a strong rtionship with him. He had injured hundreds of people, but instead of being arrested, he had been beaten up.
Not many people in the bar knew Jing Zhi. He used to keep a low profile and was quiet and cold. Other than a few infatuated women who tried to strike up a conversation with him, no other men would talk to him.
As usual, he was wearing a baseball cap with his head slightly lowered, covering half of his face. He did not attract too much attention when he came.

Trantor: 549690339
As soon as Jin Xin, the manager, appeared, he was quickly pulled away by the people in the bar. He was called brother Jin by everyone, and his poprity was excellent.
The decoration style of the bar was basically the same as the original, except that there was an additional dance floor and some seats were reduced.
Zheng yuluo was excited and excited. She returned to the old ce, and she had already registered her marriage with the bar owner!
This was something that she had never thought of before.
The first time she came here, her memory was still iplete. Later on, when she heard Liu Xiaoyings story about the bar owner and his first love, she was touched for a long time.
So, she was the protagonist of the story.
The first love cocktail was made for her alone.
Zheng yuluo hugged Jing Zhi happily. She raised her head and kissed him, not caring if there was anyone around.
Jing Zhi was surprised by her sudden enthusiasm, but he quickly turned the tables on her and took her sweetness away, pulling her into his arms.
There was nock of couples kissing in the bar. No matter how intense their kiss was, no one would find it abnormal. There were even more passionate ones!
The music in the bar was loud, and there were cheers and screams everywhere. Jing Zhi sat down in a corner with Zheng yuluo in his arms. He pressed her down on the small sofa and whispered in her ear,Baby, I cant stand your enthusiasm!
Zheng yuluo wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis waist, her eyes full of affection and gentleness. Dont talk, kiss me!
Jing Zhi couldnt stand Zheng yuluos provocation at all. If it wasnt for the inappropriate asion, he might have torn Zheng yuluos clothes and had sex with her.
He lingered on Zheng yuluos body with one hand, held her head with the other, and kissed her deeply.
His kiss was very intense. Zheng yuluo could still respond to him at first, butter on, he was too overbearing. Zheng yuluo waspletely under his control and did not know what she was doing.
They didnt know how much time had passed, but the two of them were almost unable to breathe before they reluctantly separated and hugged each other.
Zheng yuluo reached out and touched Jing Zhis handsome hair. His hat had fallen off somewhere when they kissed, and his hair was exposed. His white hair could still be seen under the dim light.
You still havent told me why youve be so thin and why your hair has turned white. I couldnt even recognize you.
Jing Zhi suppressed his desire for Zheng yuluo. He ran his finger across her bright lips and asked her in a low voice,Is it not good looking like this? If you dont like it, Ill dye it ck.
Zheng yuluo held his face with both hands and said seriously,No, youre still very handsome, but Im worried that theres something wrong with your body. Didnt mu Sen say before that your body is not in good condition? Dont hide it from me, Im your wife, I have the right to know about your health.
Okay, I wont hide it from you. There was indeed a problem, but its fine now. Perhaps it was because of his excessive drinking that had hurt his body, his hair had turned white without him knowing. Ive already been treated at family MUs Hospital, a few days before and after your birthday.
Zheng yuluo was stunned. She knew that. She had been looking for Jing Zhi for the past few days, but she couldnt find him. When he went to her house, he also looked very sick and weak.
Then if I call mu Sen, why did he lie to me and say that he didnt know where you were? Did you team up with him to trick me? Ive been worried about you for many days, do you know that?
I didnt mean to lie to you.
Jing Zhi kissed Zheng yuluos face and said,I didnt even have the freedom to move at that time. As you can see, my body was very weak. I had problems walking and was forced to be hospitalized by my brother. He was afraid that I wouldnt cooperate, so he used you to threaten me. Unless Im cured, then I can see you. Otherwise, he Will do something bad to you.
Jing Zhi didnt dare to say that. He smiled helplessly and changed the topic.
Zheng yuluo knew that Jing Rui would not say anything good, but she did not care. She asked Jing Zhi,Then why did you drink so much?
Jing Zhi was silent for a moment before he decided to tell the truth.Because I missed you too much.
You dont remember me. I hated you so much at first and wanted to forget you, but I couldnt do it. Ill follow you every day, wherever you go. Sometimes, when youre in ss, Ill sit in the back row of the ssroom. I feel better when Im closer to you.
Its a pity that you fell in love very quickly. At that time, I wanted to kill you, you know? Ive sneaked into Deng kuns dormitory many times to kill him, but I was afraid that you liked him and would be sad to know that he died, so I didnt dare do it. I dont want to be someone you hate. I just want you to love me.
Rationally, Ive been trying to convince myself, but emotionally, I cant ept it, so Ive been drinking particrly fiercely. I feel like I dont know anything when Im drunk. Sometimes, I even dream of you kissing me. I feel much more rxed when I wake up.
After that, you graduated and found an easy and stable job. I was already in a much better mood then. So I opened a bar here, thinking that since many of your colleagues go to bars, you mighte along.
Zheng yuluos tears were falling. She hugged Jing Zhi tightly and said,Dont say anymore, Im sorry! Its all my fault!
Jing Zhi chuckled.Its okay. Its all in the past. Yuluo, youre mine now. Were together. Thats enough.
Zheng yuluo still felt very guilty. She held Jing Zhi in her arms and kissed him randomly, tears falling uncontrobly.
She hated herself so much. Jing Zhi must have had a hard time in the past for him to drink so much to numb himself.
She remembered that he had never drunk before.
Ill love you properly in the future and never leave you again!
Alright, well never be apart and spend the rest of our lives together. Were only in our twenties, and this is just the beginning!
Jing Zhi gently wiped Zheng yuluos tears away. He picked her up and let her sit on hisp. He invited her softly,How about I invite you for a dance?
Zheng yuluo nced at the swaying figures on the dance floor and said a little embarrassedly,I dont know how to dance.
Its okay, Ill teach you. Its very simple. Youre so smart, youll learn it very quickly.
Jing Zhi stood up and led Zheng yuluo to the dance floor.
Jing Zhi had learned how to dance before, and it was one of thepulsory lessons in a killer organization.
This was because many of their targets were the high-ranking officials and socialites of the upper-ss society. Most of these people had bodyguards to protect them at other times and were difficult to kill. Only at balls would they not bring bodyguards, so their guard was the lowest. This was the best time to kill. Many assassins would choose to make their move in this situation. The sess rate was extremely high, and it was easy to escape in the chaos.

Chapter 1387: Why are you calling him uncle Jing? this is our Father
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi hadnt danced for many years, but he was still very professional. He swayed gently on the dance floor with Zheng yuluo, but Zheng yuluo always stumbled and fell into Jing Zhis arms a few times.
Those who didnt know better would think that she was throwing herself into his arms!
Jing Zhi kissed her forehead lovingly and wrapped his arms around her waist. He lifted Zheng yuluo up with a little force.Step on my foot and Ill carry you.
Zheng yuluo thought that this was a romantic scene in a movie. She did not expect it to actually happen in her life.
And when it happened to her, her first reaction was to feel sorry for Jing Zhi, afraid that she had stepped on his foot.
Jing Zhi saw through her immediately. He held her in his arms and chuckled.Fool, just step on me when I tell you to. Youre so heavy? It wont hurt, dont worry, just step on me!
Only then did Zheng yuluo step on it. Her hand was held by Jing Zhi, and she slowly walked to the center of the dance floor to his rhythm.
The music had already been switched to a soothing tune, and many couples were hugging each other, snuggling and kissing passionately.
In this way, Zheng yuluo didnt feel embarrassed about her being too intimate with Jing Zhi. On the contrary, when she saw a girl taking the initiative to kiss her male partner, Zheng yuluo also kissed Jing Zhi shyly.
She felt that this was probably the boldest thing she had ever done in her life!
But she only felt that doing so was very blissful!
Jing Zhi kissed her back and touched her hair affectionately. He protected her with all his might, afraid that she would bump into someone else on the dance floor.
Did you give me that box of diamonds? Zheng yuluo asked him softly.
Yes, Jing Zhi smiled.
So many diamonds, youre giving them all to me at once, arent you afraid that Ill turn my back on you?
I didnt think that much. I just felt that those diamonds were the most suitable for you. You can keep them for fun. Its rare to have 19 diamonds of the same size and color, and its only worth about 10 million. Itll be difficult to buy so many at once.
Jing Zhi pinched Zheng yuluos delicate chin helplessly.But I didnt expect you to forget about me. I was a little worried that if you forgot about me, you wouldnt have seen the diamond I put in there and it was picked up by someone else. Now that I know theyre still with you, Im relieved.
Zheng yuluo leaned her head against Jing Zhi and said,I actually did it on purpose when I drowned. I couldnt find you, and I lost you, so I felt that Id be better off dead. Perhaps I could still take root in your heart after I died? After all, thats how its always been in TV shows.
Nonsense, youre not allowed to have such thoughts in the future!
Jing Zhi didnt expect the reason for Zheng yuluos drowning to be so childish, and it moved him.
She chose to die just to leave a mark in his heart?
Jing Zhi suddenly hugged her tightly and whispered in her ear,Dont do anything stupid in the future. If I identally die one day, youre not allowed tomit suicide either!
No, I wont live if you die! So, youd better live well!
Yes, were all alive, so theres no problem.
However, even if they were both alive, there would still be some problems. For example, Jing Yiran had flown back from Northern Europe immediately after he found out that his son was married.
When Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo got home from the bar, they saw Jing Yiran standing in the middle of the living room with a suitcase.
Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo were both stunned and couldnt react for a long time.
Jing Yiran was startled as well. He had heard from Jing Yichen that his son was married, but Jing Yichen had never told him that the person he was marrying was Zheng yuluo!
Wasnt this nonsense?
Whats going on with you two?
Jing Yiran frowned and said in a serious tone.
Zheng yuluo quickly pulled her hand away from Jing Zhi s, stood up, and called him in a low voice,Uncle Jing, youre back!
Jing Zhi pulled Zheng yuluos hand back and held it tightly, refusing to let go no matter how hard she struggled.
He smiled at Jing Yiran and asked,dad, when did youe back? Why didnt you give me a call? I couldve gone to pick you up! And, yuluo, why are you calling him uncle Jing? this is our dad, you have to call him dad. Quick, greet him!
Zheng yuluo was a little embarrassed and called out,Daddy!
No, its too soft. Our dads hearing is bad, he cant hear you. Speak louder!
Daddy!
Zheng yuluo gritted her teeth and raised her voice, but she was too embarrassed to look up. She kept looking at her toes as if she had made a mistake.
Jing Yiran was so annoyed by his son that he asked Zheng yuluo to call him dad so that he would not be able to say anything.
They hadnt seen each other for such a long time, and he had grown a heart!
Now that Zheng yuluo had called him dad, he didnt know if he should agree or not.
Jing Zhi was still there, as if nothing had happened. He asked,Dad, yuluo is calling you, why didnt you answer? did you not hear clearly? Come on, yuluo, our dads back of his ears has developed into malignant deafness. Shout again!
Before Zheng yuluo shouted, Jing Yiran couldnt stand it anymore.Alright, alright, alright, stop fooling around! Since youve already registered your marriage, do you think Ill let you file for a divorce?
Why didnt you tell me that you two were getting married? Or do you want to wait until I have a grandson before you know that your son is married? Cant you be more reliable!
Thats right, I wanted to give you a grandson before telling you about my marriage with yuluo, but who was so immoral to leak my secret? Is he my brother? He already promised me to let me tell him the news myself. Why did he suddenly reveal the secret?
Jing Yiran got so angry that he red at her,you have a brother, but I don t? You and Jing Rui dare to lie to me? If your uncle didnt tell me, I would still be in the dark!
He nced at Zheng yuluo, who had her head lowered, and felt his head throb in pain.
Of all people, why did he have to marry an enemy?
Have you forgotten how we pinched each other when we were young?
Yuluo, go back to your room. I need to talk to Jing Zhi.
Although Jing Yiran had never agreed to Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluos rtionship, he had always been nice to her. During the years when his son had gone missing, Zheng yuluo hade to see him every year, so he could not get angry at her.
Moreover, Zheng yuluo was his daughter-inw now. How could a father-inw lose his temper at his daughter-inw? He could only me his own son for not living up to expectations!
He really wanted to beat Jing Zhi up right now!
Zheng yuluo went upstairs obediently. Before she left, she gave Jing Zhi a worried look.
Jing Yiran was so angry that he looked like he was going to beat Jing Zhi up. It was quite scary.
Jing Zhi gave her aforting smile, reassuring her.
Jing Yiran would never hit him, no matter how angry he was.
Chapter 1388
Chapter 1388: Brainwashing my father
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi had been beaten up many times when he was a child, but Jing Yiran had never hurt him.
If dad was angry, wouldnt he be fine after coaxing him?
Jing Zhi knew that Jing Yiran was different from Zheng Jing. Even if Zheng yuluo was not married to him now, Jing Yiran would still agree to his request if he begged him.
Jing Yiran would never force him to date another woman.
He was carrying a hereditary virus and Jing Yiran had always felt guilty towards him, so he had never forced him to do anything.
It was the same when he was a child. Jing Zhi remembered that he didnt like to study at that time. He would always skip ss and go out to y. The teacher was so angry that he called Jing Yiran to school, but Jing Yiran gave the teacher a big red packet and told her to y with him.
If it were any other parent, they would have already given him a beating!
Jing Zhi pushed Jing Yirans luggage aside and patted his shoulder.Dad, why didnt mome back with you? Let her see her daughter-inw!
Jing Yiran said unhappily,see what? havent I already seen her?
They had known each other since they were born, so what was there to see?
He hadnt told his wife about Jing Zhis marriage. He only said that he was going back to China.
Jing Yiran sat down on the sofa angrily. Looking at the mess in the house, he said,Youre turning your house into a pigsty after getting married?
Uh I didnt do this, its all Jin Xins doing!
Forget it. When Jin Xin followed you to North America to kill and set fire, he even cleaned up your nest. Dont me him!
Jing Yiran scratched his hair in frustration. He didnt care about the chicken or pigs house anymore. He dragged Jing Zhi to sit down and said in confusion,Son, cant you change your wife? Yu Luo was pretty, but she was not the only beautiful girl! Theres always a knot in my heart. Shes the one who harmed you, and I still cant like her until today!
But I dont have a knot in my heart! If I dont marry her, Ill have a knot in my heart!
Jing Zhi didnt care at all. He poured a ss of water for Jing Yiran and said,You dont have to like her too much. Its enough that you like my mother! Otherwise, what if my mom gets jealous? Even the two of usbined cant beat my mom. Shes always ranked first in the world, and I can barely make it into the top 50.
Jing Yiran pped his son on the back. Dont talk nonsense. You know thats not what I meant! Also, I dont believe that Zheng Jing will agree to your marriage. I dont want to be inws with him. After you went missing, I went to his house to fight with him a few times!
Jing Zhi looked enlightened.Oh, no wonder he doesnt like me! So youve been there to find trouble!
Thats not looking for trouble, its called seeking justice! He has taught his daughter to be crooked and harmed my son. Do you think I should just swallow my anger? Theres no such thing as swallowing ones pride in the Jing familys dictionary!
Jing Zhi smiled. He knew that Jing Yiran had a hard time when he was taken away by the Research Institute, so it was normal for him to fight with Zheng Jing.
If he had a son in the future, he would probably fight anyone who dared to mistreat his son.
Thats why I took his daughter! His daughter will be a part of our family in the future. Didnt his daughter just call you daddy? isnt it good that youve won a daughter back?
Yi, thinking about it this way, it seemed to make some sense!
Jing Yiran hesitated for a moment, but soon he realized that he had been tricked by his son.His daughter calls me father, but you call Zheng Jing father too. No, no, no! I dont agree! How can you call him father? hurry up and send his daughter back!
Jing Zhi didnt know whether tough or cry.
He shrugged his shoulders.I cant send her back. His daughter is my woman now, and Im the one who shamelessly wanted to marry her. If I send her back, the Zheng family will definitely hit on me!
Arent you afraid that shell harm you again after you marry her? I dont think the two of you are suitable at all. Are you really not going to consider switching?
No, no, no! Were sopatible. She likes me a lot, and I like her a lot. Dont look at how messy the house is today, shes actually very virtuous. She even specially cooked a lot of delicious food for me tonight!
Jing Zhi began to brainwash his father.You see, weve known each other since we were young. Although she did something wrong in the past, she was still young. Now that shes grown up, shes very regretful and loves me to death. Where else can I find such a silly girl? Its not like you dont know that I have a virus. If it were other girls, they would be scared to death. How would they dare to marry me?
Eh, that seems to make sense!
The fire in Jing Yirans heart finally subsided a little. He felt that Zheng yuluo was not totally useless after all.
Jing Zhi rattled off a lot of Zheng yuluos good points. It seemed like he wouldnt be able to finish even if he talked until dawn.
Jing Yiran was the first to break down.No, no, I am tired. I am going to sleep.
His son and him| They were both non-humans and didnt need sleep at all, but he was a normal person. He was tired enough from the ne ride. He needed to sleep first before he could fight.
Luckily, there were many rooms in the house, otherwise Jing Yiran would have to sleep on the sofa when he came home.
He chose his original bedroom and fell asleep very quickly.
Jing Zhi quietly closed the door and went back to his room with Zheng yuluo.
Zheng yuluo had been sitting on the bed waiting for him anxiously. She had been worried that a fight would break out downstairs, but it had been an hour and a half, and there was no loud noise from downstairs.
She heaved a sigh of relief when Jing Zhi entered the room.You didnt get beaten up, did you?
No, my dad couldnt bear to hit me! Hesplimenting me for having such a good wife! Let me take good care of you in the future!
Zheng yuluo blinked and asked suspiciously,Really?
Jing Yiran didnt seem to beplimenting her when she left just now. It looked like it wanted to eat people!
Of course! Ill just tell my dad that you love me so much that youll marry no one but me. Hell be touched!
Zheng yuluo was speechless.
Only Jing Zhineng would be so thick-skinned as to say that. But he was right, she would marry no one but him!
Zheng yuluo didnt quite believe Jing Zhis words, but she didnt sense any malice or disgust from Jing Yiran. It was not impossible that he would ept her as his daughter-inw.
Sheughed and wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis waist.Ah, when we got home just now and saw dad, I was so scared! I thought he would chase me away, but he actually let me go upstairs first!

Chapter 1389: You will only notice me if I say youre ugly
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhiid on the bed with Zheng yuluo in his arms and said proudly,Our dad isnt that kind of person! Hes the most reasonable person. Youre now his legitimate daughter-inw, so he definitely wont drive you away!
Zheng yuluo thought that Jing Yiran would drive her away because Zheng Jing had refused to let Jing Zhi in when they were in the Zheng family. She was afraid that Jing Yiran would not let her in either.
She rested her head on Jing Zhis arm and looked rxed.I know. Dad is a good person. In the past, I woulde to see him every New Year and festival. At first, he didnt like me. Every time he saw me, he looked like he was going to hit me, but he held back every time. He probably thought that I was young and insensible at that time, so I made a mistake.
You were really bad when you were young. You gave me a nickname and distanced yourself from me with the other children. You said that I was the reincarnation of a vampire. You must have watched too many anime!
Jing Zhi couldnt remember many of his childhood memories, but he had been isted and given nicknames every day, so he had a deep impression of them.
Aiya, you cant me me for this. Have you forgotten? my sister and I both had our arms broken by you! Ive even seen a little wild cat scratch you and you died the next day. Of course Im scared!
Theres such a thing?
Jing Zhi was a little surprised. He didnt remember any of this.
If the kitten had really scratched him, it was likely that it had been injured and died of the virus.
He didnt have a perverted tendency to torture and kill small animals. On the contrary, he had liked cats and dogs since he was young. He was just afraid that he would infect them, so he didnt dare to raise them.
He was once bitten by a dog, but he didnt get rabies. Instead, the dog died because it ate his blood by mistake.
As for the fact that he had beaten up Zheng yuluo and Zheng Yuwei Jing Zhi was confused.I dont think Ive ever hit you before?
Oh, did I remember it wrong? Other than you, who else would think that my sister and I are ugly?
Ive always thought that youre very pretty!
Speaking of this, Jing Zhi felt even more wronged. He had liked the twin sisters since he was a child, but they had never paid him any attention.
If I didnt say youre ugly, would you have noticed me? When everyone says youre pretty, Ill be sarcastic so that youll remember me!
Zheng yuluo did not know whether tough or cry!
She turned around and bit Jing Zhi on his chest.How can you be so bad! Which little girl would like to be called ugly? You said Im ugly, but I still remember you, but I cant wait to sell you! Its best if he never appears again!
Oh, so youre really going to sell me out?
I didn t! I I was wrong, I was wrong, okay?
Zheng yuluo toot and showed a pitiful expression.After I sold you out, I regretted it so much. I had nightmares every day, dreaming that you woulde and suck my blood
Of course, Jing Zhi had hated Zheng yuluo before. He had gritted his teeth and wanted to kill her.
Butter on, for some reason, he just couldnt bring himself to do it.
He had killed countless people without hesitation, but his heart had fallen into her gentle and delicate voice, so soft that it was a mess.
It was only then that he understood what a nemesis was!
Jing Zhi turned sideways and pulled Zheng yuluo into his arms. He kissed Zheng yuluos cheek like raindrops and said in a low and sexy voice,Are you stupid? you still like me when I suck your blood?
Zheng yuluo chuckled.Yes, I like you. I feel like Ive done something wrong. If youre really a blood-sucking demon who needs to drink blood to live, then Ill give you all my blood. I can die, but I cant bear to let you die.
Jing Zhi was startled. A strange emotion rose in his heart.
Perhaps he never knew how much Zheng yuluo liked him!
Her love may have started a long time ago. He didnt realize it, and she didnt even realize it herself.
Jing Zhi held Zheng yuluos hand and kissed it. He murmured softly,Silly girl
The couple had a good nights sleep, but Jing Yiran had not had a good nights sleep because he had juste back from abroad. He got up at dawn.
Jin Xin had juste back from the bar when he saw Jing Yiran sitting in the living room. He was startled.
Jing Yiran greeted him warmly as if he was his family.Ole gold,e and sit! Ive been back all night, but I havent seen you! Did Jing Zhi cause you any trouble?
Jin Xin finally came back to his senses, and he shouted,My dear family, youre finally back! Your son is too disobedient. You have to discipline him this time!
They had met several times when they were in North America. Jin Xin had been with Jing Zhi and took care of him, so Jing Yiran was very grateful to him.
Jing Zhi was a loner. He didnt like people following him around, but he epted Jin Xin and didnt mind Jin Xins constant nagging. Jing Zhi had probably gotten used to Jin Xins nagging when they were in the entertainment industry.
Even Jing Yiran felt that Jin Xin was better than his own father.
Jing Yiran felt at ease to have a senior like Jin Xin following Jing Zhi around. He had given Jin Xin a house in the United States and promised that if Jin Xin didnt have any children in the future, Jing Zhi would be his son and he would take care of him when he was old.
Therefore, the revolutionary friendship between the two people was quite deep.
When Jing Zhi got out of bed and went downstairs, he saw two men sitting in the living room, whispering intimately.
Dad, old Jin, are you two talking bad about me? You two only look like a couple when youre condemning me together!
Jing Yiran red at him,nonsense! Also, How many times do I have to tell you to call me uncle Jin? is old Jin something you should call me?
Jing Zhi was speechless.The Mr. Jin sitting next to you has sessfully changed his appearance to that of a thirty-year-old man after some minor stic surgery. Im sure he wont be happy if I call him uncle Jin.
Jing Yiran turned around and took a closer look at Jin Xins face. His skin looked good and all the wrinkles were gone.
Jin Xin was already over forty years old, but he looked like he had regained his youth. Jing Yiran said enviously,Old Jin, how did you get this? Take me to try it out tomorrow!
Youre interested in this too?Jin Xins eyes lit up.
He patted Jing Yirans shoulder and said excitedly, Thats right! I used to find it hard to understand when I watched female celebrities do stic surgery, but after I was forced to do it by Jing Zhi, I realized it was amazing! Nowadays, those youngdies like to talk to me. No one used to talk to me!

Chapter 1390: This is my husband, not my boyfriend

Jing Yiran had always been against stic surgery, but his wife had a special Constitution. She aged very slowly and had a baby face. When they went on a trip together, people would think that they were father and daughter.
How could Jing Yiran tolerate this?
Therefore, when he saw that Jin Xin could maintain his young appearance, he was immediately tempted!
The two men immediately started discussing the secret of how to stay young. Jing Zhi almost thought that he had gone to the wrong set.
Jin Xin had originally been so against stic surgery, but now he had be a fanatic of micro-stic surgery. The reason why he was so popr in the bar was inextricably rted to his knowledge of micro-stic surgery.
It was human nature to love beauty. Most people felt that they were not perfect enough, and the more beautiful they were, the more they felt that they needed to be more beautiful.
This world was too crazy!
Jing Zhi was helpless. He just hoped that Zheng yuluo had not been infected by Jin Xin. She was already very beautiful.
He shook his head and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
When he had prepared the sandwich and heated the milk, the two people in the living room were gone when he came out of the kitchen!
Jing Zhi was stunned. No way! Jing Yiran had been brainwashed so quickly?
Jin Xin had the potential to be a multi-level marketing expert!
When he had first entered the entertainment industry, he had also been duped into joining by Jin Xin. His ability to persuade people was first-ss!
Jing Yiran and Jin Xin came back at noon.
Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo were both stunned the moment they saw Jing Yiran.
His face was slightly red and swollen, but he looked at least ten years younger!
Dad, why do you look so young? Zheng yuluo mumbled.You look like Jing Zhi!
Jing Yiran was very happy and he found Zheng yuluo more pleasing to the eye. He touched his own face and sighed. Its good to be young. Many people praised me for being handsome on the way! When I was young, I was also a world-shaking handsome man!
Jing Zhi couldnt help but burst intoughter.Dad, dont be so narcissistic. Hurry up and pack up. Lets go out for lunch! You cant eat handsome!
Jing Yiran was in a good mood, so he didnt argue with his son. The four of them went out for lunch. When they got home, Jing Yiran called Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo together and asked,When are you two nning to hold your wedding?
Dont worry, prepare well. We cant rush it, or else itll be a waste of time for the rain.
Jing Zhi had never thought that he would marry Zheng yuluo so soon, so he had not made any preparations for the wedding.
Zheng yuluo also felt that there was no need to rush. She smiled and said,Lets keep it simple. We live our lives for ourselves. Lets keep the wedding simple. I want to go on a trip with Jing Zhi.
Zheng Jing had mentioned the wedding, but Zheng yuluo didnt take it to heart. With Jing Zhi around, everything else was just a small matter.
The thing she wanted to do the most was to wander the world with Jing Zhi.
Jing Yiran frowned.You two dont think much of it, but yuluo, I am sure that your family must take the wedding very seriously. Go back and ask your parents how we should prepare for it. We will have everything we need.
Zheng yuluo replied and was ready to find a suitable time to go home and tell Zheng Jing.
She had never asked Zheng Jing about the matter with Deng kun, but now she could ask him about it as well.
The next day, Zheng yuluo officially went back to work. Jing Zhi drove her to thepany, and they met a few of her colleagues downstairs.
Zheng yuluo had not gone to work for a few days. Her colleagues in thepany thought that she was sick and asked her about her physical condition.
Zheng yuluo smiled and responded to them one by one. Some colleagues could not help but ask her in a low voice,Yuluo, you changed your boyfriend? This one is too handsome! Where did you find it? why are you always so lucky?
Zheng yuluo smiled happily and introduced Jing Zhi to everyone,This is my husband, not my boyfriend!
Youre married?! Everyone was shocked.
Zheng yuluo shook the wedding ring on her finger and smiled.Yes, I just got married. Someone wanted to marry me, so I had no choice but to agree!
She said it so sweetly and blissfully, and she didnt hide anything at all. It was to the extent that her colleagues didnt know what to say.
None of them recognized Jing Zhi as the owner of the bar, because he was in a suit and didnt wear a hat today. He looked cool and handsome, like an overbearing President.
Wasnt she with Deng kun a few days ago? Didnt she talk about marriage with Deng kun?
Could it be that because Deng kun had an affair and had an ambiguous rtionship with Chen Yixi, Zheng yuluo was angry and simply found someone to marry?
However, the person she was married to seemed a little too Outstanding!
In the past, when Deng kun drove a raxessa, they already felt that it was very ssy. But now, Zheng yuluos husband was driving a shy Porsche!
Her appearance and temperament were also far better than Deng kun s!
Everyone was dumbfounded and didnt know how to react. Jing Zhi knew that everyone must be wondering why Zheng yuluo didnt marry Deng kun, but he didnt care at all.
He patted Zheng yuluos head affectionately and said to everyone,Please take care of yuluo. Shes been confused since she was a child, and shell cry when she grows up. Please bear with her.
Zheng yuluo red at him with dissatisfaction, but the rest of the Peoples sses fell.
So they knew each other when they were young?
This husband wasnt picked up from the streets!
Looking at how he pampered Zheng yuluo, he was even more than Deng kun.
Everyone was still staring at Jing Zhis sports car even after he had driven away.
Lets go, lets go. Well bete if we don t!
Zheng yuluo called her colleagues to go upstairs together, but they began to pester her with questions.
When they arrived at thepany, Liu Xiaoying, who had already arrived in advance, also knew that Zheng yuluo was married. She immediately began to bombard her.
Tell me, when did you hook up with a handsome guy? Sister Dong and the others all say that your husband is extremely handsome!
Youre so heartless. You didnt even tell me that youre getting married. I dont care. I must be your bridesmaid at your wedding!
Whats your husbands name? Where was his home? Whats your job? When did you two meet? Theyre already in bed? When do you n to have a child
Zheng Yufei almost went crazy. She knew that Liu Xiaoying was a gossiper, but she did not know that she was already gossiping to this extent!
Ill take you to see him tonight!She raised her hands in surrender.
Why would I go see your husband? Arent you afraid that Ill seduce your husband? wasnt Chen Yiqians lesson harsh enough?
Liu Xiaoying did not agree to meet Zheng yuluos husband.
Chapter 1391
Chapter 1391: Our home
Trantor: 549690339
It was true that Liu Xiaoying liked handsome men, but she would never like a married man. She still had a basic moral bottom line. She was just like Chen Yiqian, shamelessly asking to have a meal with Deng kun and even asking for his phone number. How disgusting!
In this day and age, its all about fire, theft, girlhood, and colleagues!
Liu Xiaoying warned Zheng yuluo, teaching her to keep a close eye on her husband. Otherwise, her outstanding husband would be easily seduced by a Vixen.
Zheng yuluo could only smile helplessly. She knew in her heart that Jing Zhi wouldn t.
He was different from other men. The foundation of their rtionship was extremely strong and could not be easily broken.
However, there was one thing that Liu Xiaoying was right about. She shouldnt be like how she was in the past, giving her other halfs number to other women so casually.
Chen Yiqian had Deng kuns phone number because Zheng yuluo had given it to her. Chen Yiqian had said that she wanted to consult Deng kun about some Bank Business.
Zheng yuluo did not think too much about it and gave Chen Yixi her phone number.
She would never do such a thing again.
Jing Zhi could only belong to her.
Zheng yuluo wouldnt be jealous if Chen Yiqian called Deng kun, but if a woman called Jing Zhi and talked to him about some ambiguous topics, Zheng yuluo felt that she would go crazy.
In the evening, Jing Zhi came to pick up Zheng yuluo from work. This time, Liu Xiaoying saw him.
In the entirepany, only Liu Xiaoying had seen Jing Zhis face once, and it was because of Zheng yuluo.
So, she was stunned when she saw Jing Zhi.
Liu Xiaoying grabbed Zheng yuluos arm and stopped her from walking towards Jing Zhi. She whispered,Hey, hey, hey! Yuluo, isnt he the boss of the waiting bar?!
Zheng yuluo smiled and nodded.Yes, thats him. Hes my husband now!
This is impossible!
Liu Xiaoyings alreadyrge eyes widened even further. Didnt he have a first love? And shes been immersed in her past rtionship and cant get out of it? Can you ept the fact that he has an unforgettable ex-girlfriend?
Zheng yuluo blinked.Oh, I forgot to tell you. His ex-girlfriend is me! She said.
Um I lost my memory and forgot about him. I just remembered him recently, so I got married!
Liu Xiaoying was dumbfounded. She felt as if she had been deeply hurt!
Why would the melodramatic plot in movies never happen to her? why wasnt she Prince Charmings ex-girlfriend?
Was this really not a fabricated story?
No, wait a minute. Yuluo, why do I feel like Ive lost my memory too? Do you think Ill wake up tomorrow and find out that I have a tall and handsome ex-boyfriend who has been waiting for me to go back?
Zheng yuluo couldnt help butugh. Liu Xiaoying was too cute!
She had never been in a rtionship before, so how could she have an ex-boyfriend?
Seeing Zheng yuluo smile, Liu Xiaoying cried,Is it because Im too ugly that no one wants me? No, no, I have to get my teeth removed! My cute little buck teeth, goodbye!
Many people had praised Liu Xiaoying, saying that her facial features were very beautiful, especially her eyes. Herrge eyelids were very lively.
It was just that when he smiled, he would reveal his big teeth, which seriously destroyed the beauty.
Even Liu Xiaoyings own mother had advised her,go get your teeth done, mom will pay for it! Im sorry that I couldnt give you a set of good teeth!
Liu Xiaoying had originally thought that it was fine to be a little ugly, as it could be used to guard against theft!
Those who truly loved her would ept her baring teeth. She was a kind and hardworking girl. Wasnt inner beauty more important than external beauty?
However, the cruel fact was that if you wanted others to see your inner beauty, you first had to have a miserable appearance.
Back then, after she had graduated, Liu Xiaoying had continuously hit a wall during her interviews. She knew that this had something to do with her appearance.
However, she was stubborn and refused to change. No matter who tried to persuade her, it was useless. She wanted to prove that even if she was ugly, she could still have a sessful career and sweet love.
Now that she saw Jing Zhi, Liu Xiaoying suddenly understood!
Because she realized that she judged people by their looks. Jing Zhis good looks were so pleasing to her eyes that she wanted to pounce on him.
In that case, why should she let others ept her shorings?
Getting dental treatment was somon nowadays. It was apletely different concept from stic surgery. Why had she been so stubborn for so many years?
Liu Xiaoyingughed and hugged Zheng yuluo.Beauty, I wish you a happy marriage! Your husbands looks are off the charts, hes so handsome! Im going to be a beauty too, lets go!
Zheng yuluo didnt know what was wrong with her, but she was in a good mood when she saw Liu Xiaoyings cheerful expression. After Liu Xiaoying left, she threw herself into Jing Zhis arms.Hubby, lets go home!
This was the first time Zheng yuluo had called Jing Zhi hubby after their marriage. Jing Zhi felt sweet inside. He hugged Zheng yuluo and kissed her forehead.Wife, why are you so obedient today? you finally know how to call me! Did that colleague of yours, Liu Xiaoying, say anything to you?
He did, he said youre very handsome! Complimenting you is the same asplimenting me, so Im very happy!
Jing Zhiughed. He liked what Zheng yuluo said.
Zheng yuluo should have a few more friends who were as lively as Liu Xiaoying. That way, she would also be more lively.
The two of them chatted andughed as they got into the car. After Jing Zhi had driven for a while, Zheng yuluo was confused.Where are we going?
Didnt you say so? go home!
But this isnt the way home, is it?
Jing Zhiughed.Of course! This is it!
When they arrived, Zheng yuluo suddenly realized that Jing Zhi had brought her to the vi that Jing Rui had given her.
This was indeed their home.
After they got out of the car, Jing Zhi held Zheng yuluos hand and walked in. This was the first time the two of them had been here. The house looked extremely stylish, and both of them were a little happy.
The vi had a swimming pool, a garden, and awn. By the time the two of them were done, the sky had already turnedpletely dark.
It was time for the maid who was in charge of mowing thewn and maintaining the garden and pool to get off work. He said goodbye to Jing Zhi and left.
Inside the vi, there was a servant in charge of cleaning. When she saw Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluoe in, she tactfully didnt disturb them.
The house was huge, and the decoration style was obviously ording to Jing Zhis preference. Jing Rui must have prepared this house for a long time, and had nned to give it to Jing Zhi.
The interior of the vi was simple but did not lose its atmosphere. It had a European style, noble and elegant.
All the furniture and kitchenware were brand new. Jing Rui must have put in a lot of effort to decorate the vi.
Chapter 1392
Chapter 1392: Addicting
Trantor: 549690339
The servants were obviously cleaning the house every day. The house was clean, but the room was decorated very heartwarming and very suitable for living.
When he opened the window on the second floor, he could still see the sea view outside. It was refreshing.
Zheng yuluo fell in love with the ce. She hugged Jing Zhis waist happily.Can we stay here tonight? I love it!
Jing Zhi said softly,silly girl, didnt I bring you here to stay? Dont tell me were going to take a look and then leave reluctantly? This is our house, we can live anywhere we want! You can stay as long as you want!
Jing Zhi thought the house was good too. It was far from the city, quiet, and had a good environment.
He knew that when Jing Rui had chosen this house, he had not considered whether Zheng yuluo would like it or not, but because he knew that Zheng yuluo liked quiet and no one would disturb him.
It was great that Zheng yuluo liked him too!
Although the servant was not a professional chef, her cooking skills were much better than Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo. She cooked a table full of dishes, and Zheng yuluo took the opportunity to learn from her and happily made soup for Jing Zhi.
After dinner, Jing Zhi took Zheng yuluos hand and went for a walk by the beach.
The moonlight was bright, the waves were surging, and the bright stars filled the entire sky.
Zheng yuluo leaned her head on Jing Zhis body as she walked slowly on the brand new wooden nk Road. She took a deep breath of fresh air with satisfaction and said softly,Jing Zhi, its been my dream to take a walk by the sea with you after dinner. Now that itse true, I feel so unreal and so happy!
In the past, every time she went out for a walk with Deng kun after dinner, she always felt that it was a kind of torture, as if she was doing a task instead of rxing.
Now, she finally understood that it wasnt a problem with the walk, but the person apanying her was wrong.
Jing Zhi was afraid that Zheng yuluo would feel cold, so he took off his coat and put it on her. Then he put his arm around her waist and sighed,Well, its a little unreal. Ive been watching you and Deng kun go for a walk after dinner. Im so jealous. So, I thought that If I Could Be With You one day, I would definitely take a walk with you every night. I must have more than Deng kun!
Zheng yuluos heart ached when she heard Jing Zhis words.Are you stupid? why didnt you tell me earlier that we used to be together? You should have just snatched me away from Deng kun!
Im just afraid that you wont be happy with me.
Jing Zhi smiled. He suddenly remembered something.By the way, you may not know that President Deng kun has been touched by Zheng Yuwei. I didnt know that Zheng Yuwei could tolerate it so much.
Did I?
Zheng yuluo was a little angry,hes not human! Why didnt Weiwei tell me? if she had told me earlier, I definitely wouldnt have been with Deng kun!
Shes afraid that youll break up with Deng kun, so shes been holding back.
Jing Zhi understood Zheng Yuweis thoughts, and his expression was cold. Ive checked today, Deng kun cant be a man anymore. The person you kicked that day was him without a doubt. Hes been quibbling and saying that he fell down identally. Hes still refusing to admit what he did.
Zheng yuluo gritted her teeth and said with red eyes,He deserves it!
Dont be afraid, yuluo. He wont have the chance to hurt you again. Your father wont let him off easily, and neither will I. Ive already made him suffer a little today. I think hell tell us the truth soon.
It was easy for Jing Zhi to deal with Deng kun.
In the past, if it were not for the fact that Zheng yuluo would be sad because of Deng kun, Deng kun would not have lived until now.
Thete autumn weather was a little cold. Jing Zhi was worried that Zheng yuluo would catch a cold, so he only took her for a short walk before going back.
Zheng yuluo took afortable hot bath. After the bath, she realized that there were no home clothes in the new house. She had nothing to wear!
She dawdled in the bathroom and didnt want to go out, but there was a knock on the door.
Yuluo, are you nning to spend the night in the bathroom? If you dont have any clothes to wear, just be naked. Im not an outsider, so I definitely wont peek!
Zheng yuluo stomped her feet in the bathroom.Hmph, you must be doing this on purpose! You brought your own clothes, but you deliberately didnt bring mine!
She wrapped two towels around her upper and lower body, opened the door, and walked out.
Tsk, why are you wrapped up so tightly?
To prevent you from peeking!
I told you just now, I definitely wont peek. Youre my wife. If I want to look, Ill look at you openly!
As Jing Zhi spoke, he picked Zheng yuluo up and bit her bath towel, trying to pull it off and see what was inside.
Zheng yuluo covered it with all her might andughed. Whats wrong with you? why are you even using your teeth?
If only I had two big teeth like a squirrel s, your bath towel would be torn open!
Then why dont you grow two elephant tusks? Thats more convenient!
Oh, ivory is fine too! Thats still valuable, but I have two tusks. Are you sure you still have a way to kiss me?
Zheng yuluo imagined how Jing Zhi would look like with long tusks and suddenlyughed so hard that her stomach hurt! This was too funny!
Zheng yuluo was still chuckling when Jing Zhi threw her onto their brand new bed.
The nket and bed sheets were bright red, and Jing Zhi had ordered the servants to buy them yesterday.
Jing Zhi took off his shirt and pressed down on Zheng yuluo.Yuluo, lets consummate our marriage tonight, okay?
Zheng yuluo blushed when she heard him blurt out such a sentence.
No wonder the room was decorated like this. It looked like a wedding night!
Zheng yuluo reached out and pushed him.Get up first. Lets Lets have a chat.
Jing Zhi chuckled. He got up quickly and turned off the headlights, leaving only the floormp on.
The light dimmed in an instant, and the ambiguous atmosphere rose in the room. Zheng yuluos heart was beating fast.
Jing Zhi went back to bed and held Zheng yuluo in his arms. He said suggestively,Ive already taken off my clothes, shouldnt you throw away your bath towel? Youre wrapped up so tightly and even used two bath towels. I cant even do anything.
Zheng yuluo was a little shy. She didnt take off her bath towel, but reached out and touched Jing Zhis body. When she felt her pants, she said in a low voice,Youre lying! You didnt take off your pants!
You can take it off for me, Jing Zhiughed.
As he spoke, hisrge hand had already reached into Zheng yuluos bath towel and gently stroked her delicate skin.
Zheng yuluos skin was very smooth and felt good to the touch. Jing Zhi was addicted to it every time he touched her.
Chapter 1393
Chapter 1393: Moved by love, sinking
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi couldnt help but kiss Zheng yuluos cheek and bite her earlobe. He just wanted to eat her up.
Zheng yuluo felt as if Jing Zhis hands were carrying electricity. Wherever his hands touched, there would be a numbing electric current, and she couldnt help but want to get closer to Jing Zhi.
Zheng yuluo followed his example and gently stroked Jing Zhis back. Then she put her face on Jing Zhis chest, trying to take his chest.
Jing Zhis body stiffened, but Zheng yuluo seemed to have found a new toy. She bit him again and again, enjoying it.
Jing Zhi couldnt take it anymore. He pulled off the bath towel on Zheng yuluo and held her tightly in his arms. His voice was obviously lewd, sexy and bewitching.Baby, youve been corrupted! Youre ying with fire, do you know that?
As he spoke, he lifted Zheng yuluos chin, aimed at her red lips, and kissed her deeply.
After a long time, Jing Zhi finally let go of her slightly red and swollen lips. He kissed her delicate chin and sexy corbones.
It was soft, tender, and full of the temptation of a young girl!
Rainy, why do I feel like its getting bigger
Jing Zhis voice was very low, so gentle that it could make people sink into it.
Zheng yuluo was a little embarrassed at first, but her desire for Jing Zhi was beyond anything else. Her hands fumbled all over Jing Zhis body and touched his pants. She unzipped his pants involuntarily.
Even without looking in the mirror, Zheng yuluo knew that her face must be red at the moment.
She felt that she had gone crazy and was willing to do anything!
Zheng yuluo took off her clothes too slowly. Jing Zhi didnt want to make things difficult for her, so he quickly took off his clothes and finally touched Zheng yuluos skin.
Zheng yuluo identally touched a certain part of him and felt her body heat up!
She hadnt done this with Jing Zhi in a long time, and she was very shy now.
Jing Zhi was as passionate as fire. He kissed her madly as he caressed her lower abdomen.
Zheng yuluo couldnt help but moan, but Jing Zhis fingers were more flexible in stirring up her inner desire.
He only retracted his fingers when she could not take it anymore and slowly pressed her against his body.
Zheng yuluo had not tolerated him for too long, and she felt a tearing sensation in her lower body. She could not help but cry out in pain,Hubby, it hurts!
Jing Zhis forehead was covered in sweat. He kissed Zheng yuluo and coaxed her softly,Baby, itll be fine in a while. Werent we verypatible before? Youll like it. Be good
Zheng yuluos tightness was no less than when she had her first time, which was a torture for Jing Zhi.
He wanted her like crazy, but he was afraid that he would hurt her if he was too violent, so he was trying his best to restrain himself.
However, it was different from the first time. Zheng yuluo was now deeply in love with Jing Zhi. Although she was in pain, she was inexplicably moved when she thought of the two of them being together.
Therefore, the pain was quickly reced by an indescribable joy.
Besides, Zheng yuluo had some experience now. She knew how to make herself feel less painful and knew how to kiss Jing Zhi to encourage him.
Zheng yuluo was immersed in the ocean of happiness and couldnt extricate herself from it.
Her soft voice was the best catalyst for Jing Zhi.
Later, she begged for mercy, but Jing Zhi still wouldnt let her go.
The next day, Zheng yuluo woke upte without a doubt.
She picked up her phone and looked at the time. It was already past ten in the morning!
Jing Zhi! Its all your fault, what should I do now, Im toote! Youre too evil!
She hit Jing Zhi in a fit of anger, but found that her fist was too weak to hold him back. She bit him with her teeth, but then remembered that she shouldnt break his skin. She kicked Jing Zhi in a fit of anger.
Jing Zhi just chuckled and let her do whatever she wanted.
When Zheng yuluo was tired, he held her in his arms with satisfaction and said lovingly,Lets not go to work today. Ill take care of you anyway, so whats wrong with skipping work for a day?
Zheng yuluo leaned into his arms, wrinkled her cute nose, and whispered,If you spoil me like this, Ill want to skip work every day in the future
Thats fine too. Our family even runs a bar. You can just be thedy boss. All the money you earn is yours.
What if I dont know how to manage it and identally lose it?
Ill pay for it,Jing Zhi said, kissing her.
Zheng yuluo chuckled. She wrapped her arms around Jing Zhis neck and kissed him.No one else will love me more than you!
Yeah, I think so too! Jing Zhi nodded proudly.
The two of themy in bed, hugging each other and whispering. They didnt get up until noon.
When he came here yesterday, it was already evening. The sky was dark, and he couldnt see the surrounding scenery clearly.
At noon, after lunch, Zheng yuluo went out excitedly with Jing Zhi for a walk. The beautiful sea view was in full view, and on a small road in the distance was arge red maple forest!
It was as beautiful as a poem or a painting!
Zheng yuluo made a prompt decision to not go to work this afternoon!
Too beautiful! This ce is really suitable for living!
Zheng yuluo praised her from the bottom of her heart. Jing Zhi was already used to this kind of scene. Seeing that Zheng yuluo liked it, he also showed a faint smile.
He held Zheng yuluos hand tightly and walked to the small path in the maple forest.
There were not many people on the road. asionally, there were people who came to admire the beautiful scenery, but most of them were couples. Zheng yuluo suddenly felt as if she had returned to her university days. She had once strolled around the campus with Jing Zhi.
A sense of happiness welled up in her, and Zheng yuluo felt that even the soreness in her body had been reduced by half!
She excitedly picked up the Maple leaves and said,hubby, look, this is beautiful! Help me hold it!
She picked up a bunch from the ground and found that the ones on the tree were even more beautiful.Honey, I want the one on the tree. Do you see that? The biggest one, help me pick it!
Jing Zhi shook his head helplessly. He felt that there was no difference between the Maple leaves. Why was there a difference between good-looking and not good-looking in Zheng yuluos eyes?
They clearly look the same!
He smiled and jumped up to help Zheng yuluo pick the Maple Leaf, trying to make her happy.The most beautiful maple Leaf is for the most beautiful you. No one else is worthy of this Maple Leaf!
Zheng yuluoughed out loud,when did you learn to say sweet nothings? He wasnt like this in the past, his mouth was especially poisonous! And you said Im ugly!
Do I need to learn this? Youre the most beautiful in my heart!
Jing Zhi held a stack of maple leaves in one hand and put his arm around Zheng yuluos shoulder with the other. He smiled and said,When did I say youre ugly? Aiya, youve remembered it wrong!

In the prison of A city, Deng kun was lying on the cold and hard ground in a sorry state.
His face was swollen, and blood was still flowing out of the corner of his mouth. His entire body was in severe pain.
Just now, because he had a conflict with several prisoners who lived in the same room, he was beaten up by them.
He used to be the best masters student in University of X and an excellent employee of a foreign bank. He lived a life of luxury and respect. Overnight, everything changed!
He had be aughable prisoner!
Everything he had would be gone. Even if he could get out of prison in the future, with his previous record, no goodpany would want him!
He could forget about marrying a good woman in the future!
Women Hehe, its all that bitch Zheng yuluos fault! Not only did she destroy his manhood, but she also made him lose everything and put him in a dark prison!
The people locked up here were all criminals. Theymitted all kinds of evil, murder, arson, and so on. The greatest pleasure of living in prison was to torture neers!
And that B * tch Chen Yiran. If she had not been so greedy that she used Zheng yuluos information to ckmail Jing Zhi, he would have seeded and toyed with Zheng yuluo. No one would know the location. Even if Zheng yuluo died there, no one would find out in a short time!
The only thing that kept Deng kun alive was revenge!
He wanted to stay alive until he was released from prison.| Attempted rape and violent assault were not enough to sentence her to death. Thew stated that even if she was raped, she would not be sentenced to death.| If the treachery really seeded, the maximum sentence would be ten years.
Deng kun was sentenced to five years in prison. If he performed well in prison, his sentence could be reduced. Maybe he could be released in two or three years!
As long as he could get out of here, he would definitely kill those two women!
No one could guess the viciousness and resentment in Deng kuns heart, because he had put on an extreme disguise.
He had refused to admit what he had done, but not only did he admit it now, but he also kept apologizing and repenting. He was full of sincerity.
As long as family Jing didnt get involved in Zheng yuluos matter, Deng kun was confident that he could make the Zheng family forgive him.
He understood the Zheng family too well! He knew Zheng Jing and Zheng yuluo!
Deng kun now knew that it was Jing Rui who had helped Zheng Jing solve the case so quickly. Chen Yiqian had been caught by his men from Thand.
He had underestimated family Jings power before, but now he dared not to.
While life in prison was torturous, Zheng yuluo and Jing Zhi were preparing for their wedding outside the prison.
They had already forgotten about Deng kun and there was no trace of him in their lives.
Because Zheng Jing wanted his daughter to get married in a grand way, Jing Yiran had raised the standard of the wedding and invited many people, including those who had close ties with family Jing.
It was the same for the Zheng family. There were dozens of tables for rtives and friends.
The wedding was abination of Chinese and Western culture. Zheng yuluo had been busy these days, personally participating in the venue design and decoration. By the day before the wedding, she was so tired that her back hurt.
Jing Zhi spent almost all his time with Zheng yuluo. He didnt have any requirements for the wedding, as long as the bride was Zheng yuluo. He didnt care about anything else.
Zheng yuluo, on the other hand, was very picky about the details of marriage. She had learned a lot from others, so it was inevitable that she would be tired.
The wedding is tomorrow. Go home and rest.
Jing Zhi didnt want Zheng yuluo to be busy anymore. He picked her up, stuffed her into the car, and took her home.
Its precisely because the wedding is tomorrow that I have to do a thorough check!
Although Zheng yuluo was tired, she was excited and happy to prepare for her own wedding. There was a faint smile on her fair face.Im worried if someone else did it. I have to see it with my own eyes.
Your family has already checked it out for you, especially Yuwei. Just leave it to her.
Zheng yuluo shook her head.Weiwei is too carefree. She doesnt notice many small details. Its fine for her to fight, but its really hard for her to prepare a beautiful wedding! I heard from my mother that she has challenged Han Feng countless times and has lost every time, but she has never given up.
Zheng yuluo asked Jing Zhi expectantly,What do you think of the cold wind man?
Him? But I dont think hes very good at rtionships. Hes always with Gao ya, and Ive always suspected that they were a couple!
Dont tell me you want Zheng Yuwei and Han Feng to Jing Zhis expression was strange.
No, I was just asking. After all, Wei Wei has never been so proactive with any boy.
Zheng yuluo actually felt that Zheng Yuweis treatment of Han Feng was too different. She used to say that skills were used to deal with bad people. She would not fight with people casually, let alone go to the door of others house to provoke them.
Love and marriage are her own business. I wont interfere. Im just helping her find out about her character and personality. I think Hanfeng is quite good.
As the two of them were talking, Zheng Yuwei came to their vi.
She walked in with a face full of dust. Zheng yuluo knew that she had gone to find trouble again when she saw her like this.
Wei Wei, did you go to challenge Han Feng again? Are you hurt anywhere?
Zheng Yuwei rubbed her numb arm and said indifferently,Im fine, sister. Dont worry. That brat wont get any advantage if he fights with me!
Zheng yuluo did not think so. Looking at the clear handprint on Zheng Yuweis chest, she felt that her sister had been taken advantage of!
However, she didnt expose him. She asked with a smile,Its sote, why are you here?
Mom and dad asked me to take you home! Our mom said that youre getting married to our family, so you cant stay at Jingzhis ce tonight.
Zheng Lun had mentioned this before. Zheng yuluo had been so busy that she had forgotten that she needed to go home.
She took her bag and phone and followed Zheng Yuwei out.
Jing Zhi stood behind her andined.Thats not good. Why did my brother and Shuyin sleep together the night before their wedding? why do you have to go home?
He couldnt bear to let Zheng yuluo leave. They had only been married for a short time, and he was used to sleeping with Zheng yuluo in his arms every night. If Zheng yuluo was not by his side, he would definitely not be able to sleep the entire night.
Zheng yuluo wanted tough. She turned around and hugged Jing Zhi.I need to get married tomorrow morning, so Ill definitely be staying there for the night. Ill sleep with you tomorrow night. Well only be apart for one night.
I dont want to be apart for the whole night!
Jing Zhi held Zheng yuluo in his arms and touched her hair reluctantly.
Zheng Yuwei was a little speechless. She had never seen two people who were so close to each other!

Zheng Yuwei went up and pulled Zheng yuluo away. Jing Zhi was still standing outside the vi, looking into the distance, not moving an inch until the two of them drove away.
The vi was bright red and filled with joy. There were two servants working in the house, but Jing Zhi still felt empty.
Zheng yuluo had never left him ever since he had moved into the vi.
Jing Zhi had been very happy at the wedding, but now that there was no one by his side, he felt very disappointed.
He didnt know how long he had been standing there, but a girl walked in with light steps.
Her voice was clear and melodious like an Oriole Bird.Second brother, did you specially stand here to wait for me?
The young girls long hair draped over her shoulders, her smile was like a flower, her skin was as white as Jade, slender and beautiful.
She stood under the bright light, her entire body was covered in ayer of light. She was as beautiful as a fairy who was above themon popce, stunning everyone!
Jing Zhi was stunned. After five seconds, he asked with uncertainty,Xixi?
Jing Xis smile was bright, revealing her white and neat teeth. Her eyes were shining like stars.Second brother, we havent seen each other for two years. Dont you recognize me? Aiya, Im so sad. Thank God I even prepared a wedding gift for you!
Jing Zhi still hadnt recovered from the shock. The girl in front of him was slender and elegant, like a white and elegant Snow Lotus. Her temperament was out of the world, and she didnt match the little devil in his memory at all!
Xixi, is it really you? he asked in disbelief.
Jing Xi smiled. She picked up the corner of her dress and turned around. She tilted her head and asked,Im not real? Second brother, when I left, your IQ was still above sea level. Why did your IQ drop so much this time? You didnt check your brain?
Jing Zhi finally came back to his senses. Heughed and picked Jing Xi up in his arms.Hahaha, Xixi, how did you grow so tall? Did you grow it by eating ginseng overseas?
Jing Xi was 13 years old this year, but she was already nearly 1.6 meters tall!
Two years ago, before she went abroad to study, she was still a child. How did she be a graceful young girl two yearster?
Jing Xi was a little annoyed by Jing Zhis habit of picking her up. She patted his arm and said,Quickly put me down, this will affect my image as ady! Youre going to have your wedding tomorrow and youre holding a beauty in your arms. What if my sister-inw misunderstands?
Jing Zhi put Jing Xi down andughed at her. Ive never seen someone as thick-skinned as you, praising yourself as ady and a beautiful woman!
After Jing Xi steadied herself, she smoothed out the wrinkles on her clothes and tidied up her appearance. Then she looked up and smiled.One can not be too modest. I have always adhered to this saying!
She handed a paper bag to Jing Zhi.I made this myself. Its a wedding gift for you and sister-inw! Wheres my sister-inw? Let me see the bride first, I havent seen her in a long time!
Jing Zhi took the gift and led Jing Xi into the vi.Unfortunately, the bride has just been taken home by her family. You can only see her tomorrow!
In the past, Jing Xi would have stomped her feet in anxiety. But now, she followed Jing Zhi to the living room and sat down on the sofa gently. She was elegant and calm.
The 13-year-old girls facial features had already opened up a little. Under the light, she looked very beautiful.
Her little face was so tender that water could be squeezed out of it. It was simply so delicate that it could be broken by a single blow!
Jing Zhi couldnt help but want to pinch it, but as soon as he reached out his hand, it went numb.
Aiyo!
Jing Zhi couldnt help but cry out in pain. Jing Xi sat there elegantly and said coldly,Second brother, if you touch me again, Ill make sure you cant get married tomorrow.
What do you mean by touching you? Im your brother, cant I even pinch your face? You didnt pinch it often when you were young?
Jing Zhis hand was numb. It didnt hurt or itch, but it was numb. It felt like his hand didnt belong to him anymore. It was terrible.
He had beenpletely deceived by this girls beautiful and pure appearance. For a moment, he had actually forgotten how much he had suffered in her hands before!
She looked more beautiful, but her heart seemed to have be darker!
Even my brother didnt pinch my face, let alone my cousin. Not even my father!
The smile on Jing Xis face was gone, and she looked a little cold.
Of course, my dad is not interested in my face. He even thinks that Im ugly and not as good looking as my mom!
At the end of her sentence, she finally revealed a trace of childishness that a thirteen-year-old girl should have.
It had been two years since theyst met, and Jing Zhi felt that he couldnt figure out Jing Xis thoughts anymore. This girl had changed so quickly!
She was originally a two-faced little girl. Now that she had learned not to show her emotions, whoever offended her in the future would definitely die a terrible death!
Anyway, he would never dare to touch Jing Xis face again!
A single touch and a crippled hand, this price was too high!
If you dont let anyone touch you, what will you do when you find a boyfriend in the future? Its a spiritual love!
Jing Zhi red at Jing Xi. He suddenly felt that the gift in his hand was a little tricky.
When Jing Xi said that she had made it herself, he didnt take it seriously. Now he finally realized that Jing Xi was still the original Jing Xi. Could this gift be a bomb that she had made herself?
Jing Zhi shivered.
Of course my boyfriend can touch me, but he has to be handsome enough. Youre so ugly, you dont stand a chance. Jing Xi smiled.
Jing Zhi almost choked on his food.
Who didnt praise him for being handsome? Didnt Jing Xi also think that he was the most handsome second brother? Why did she feel that he was ugly again?
Jing Zhi didnt dare to keep this little devil for another minute, or his vi would be blown up.
He hurriedly chased Jing Xi away, and Jing Xi could only sigh. Sigh, it didnt seem to be a good thing to be too famous!
She had onlye to give Jing Zhi her blessings and gifts. Jing Zhi wanted to pinch her face, but she didnt allow it. She gave him a small punishment, but Jing Zhi was so scared.
Jing Xi warned herself that she had to hide her strength more in the future and not expose it too early.
Her appearance was still very deceiving!
She didnt take a car on the way back, but walked along the beach slowly. The driver and bodyguards that Jing Yichen had arranged for her followed her from a distance.
Someone was begging with a bowl and a crutch in his hand. Jing Xi saw that he was only wearing a torn short-sleeved shirt on such a cold day. She felt that it was not easy for him, so she took out a hundred Yuan from her small handbag and gave it to him.
She didnt expect that the beggar would be so greedy for money. Seeing that she was still a young girl, he grabbed her handbag and ran away. His leg was no longer crippled, and he didnt even want his crutch.
Chapter 1396
Chapter 1396: I dont think I can get married
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi sighed and shook her head helplessly.AI, another one pretending! There are so many scammers these days!
She stood there and waited. Three minutester, the beggar was caught by her bodyguards.
The bodyguard stepped forward and kicked the man. He scolded coldly,Are you blind? you even dare to snatch our misss things! Ive given you a hundred Yuan and youre still not satisfied. You deserve to be a beggar for the rest of your life!
The beggar clutched his stomach and knelt down in front of Jing Xi.Miss, I was wrong. I wont dare to do it again! I have my parents and children to take care of, so I just want to get more money for the elderly to treat their illnesses and buy food for my children! You look like a rich man. Shouldnt you save us poor people? I beg you to let me go!
Jing Xi had been through this many times, and she did not believe a single word the other party said.
Even if this family was really poor, Jing Xi would not help them. Their money did not fall from the sky!
People with hands and legs who didnt work to earn money but had to beg or even Rob were not worth helping.
At first, I thought you were a cripple, so I gave you a hundred out of kindness. Now it seems that I gave you too much and caused you to be greedy, right?
Jing Xis expression was gentle, and she did not look angry at all. She motioned for the bodyguard to take the money back and put it back in her small handbag. Then, she got into the car and left.
The beggar was still kneeling on the ground. Seeing Jing Xi leave with the fierce-looking bodyguards, he could not believe that he had escaped from the Tigers mouth.
He cursed as he stood up. He felt that he was too unlucky to have made a wrong judgment!
As he walked, he suddenly felt an itch on his face. He scratched it hard, and after a while, the strange itch disappeared.
When he took a taxi home, he looked in the mirror and found that there were two big words written on his face: Robbery!
The words were clear and bright red!
The man turned pale with fright and quickly washed his face. However, no matter how hard he washed, he couldnt wash it off. The words didnt look like they were written at all, but seemed to have grown out of his flesh!
He suddenly remembered that his face had been extremely itchy before. Could it be that when it itched, this was what it grew?
How could this be possible?
Why did two words suddenly appear on his face?!
A robbery
Could it be that little girls doing?
He had been begging for the whole day, and he had only managed to snatch that little girls bag!
Jing Xi was sitting in the car. The bodyguard in the front passenger seat said helplessly,Miss, dont give beggars so much money in the future. Itll attract thieves!
He didnt know how many times he had suffered from this. He thought that Jing Xi would never pity those people again. He didnt expect that she would still give money to them every time they were beggars.
One hundred Yuan is enough to see through a persons heart. Its a good deal. Besides, didnt we get the money back? Jing Xi said with a smile. He didnt get any advantage!
Moreover, the two words that grew out of that persons face were enough to make him suffer for a while!
For some reason, Jing Xi felt that she was particrly attractive to thieves. Did she look like she was rich and stupid?
She lowered her head to look at her clothes. They were very ordinary and not branded.
When she was abroad, she was also robbed. When she walked alone, she was often robbed. Sometimes, she pitied a beggar and gave him money, but his wallet would be robbed the next second.
She was so annoyed that she didnt even dare to give money casually when she was abroad.
She had thought that things would be better when she returned to A city. She did not expect that she would be robbed again on the first day she returned.
It was still early, so Jing Xi did not go home. She called her mother and told her that she would be homete. Then she went to family MUs Hospital.
Mu Sen had already gotten off work. He was changing into a white coat in his office when a girl pushed the door open and entered. When she saw him, she called out to him with a smile,Brother mu!
Jing Xi? mu Sen was stunned.
Yes, its me. Im back in China!
Jing Xi was happy to see mu Sen recognize her so quickly. She smiled and said,Brother mu, youre getting more and more handsome!
Seeing that it was really her, mu Sen was both surprised and happy. Youre getting more and more beautiful. If it wasnt for the shadow of the past, I wouldnt even dare to recognize you! Its only been two years, and youve grown so tall?
He didnt bother to change his coat. He walked up to Jing Xi in his shirt and looked her up and down. He felt that Jing Xi was unexpectedly stunning!
She was already a little beauty when she was young, and now that she had grown up, she was unbelievably beautiful!
He smiled and asked Jing Xi to sit down. He made her a cup of tea and asked her about her life abroad.
Its quite interesting. I learned everything. My father found me many teachers, and my mother often visits me. However, I dont like handsome guys with blonde hair and blue eyes overseas. I still prefer those with ck hair and ck eyes!
Jing Xis eyes were curved, and the corners of her lips were slightly raised. She smiled beautifully, and her tone was obviously arrogant. It was obvious that she was really living well abroad.
She had the youth and beauty of a thirteen-year-old girl, but she also had the maturity and calmness that ordinary thirteen-year-old girls didnt have.
The pranks and unkempt appearance of her childhood had all disappeared. She was natural and unrestrained, and her temperament was out of this world. Even if she was joking, mu Sen did not even dare to touch her head.
Her family name was Jing, and just her background alone was enough to make countless people in the world afraid.
Now that she had a beautiful and refined appearance and extraordinary intelligence, there would be fewer and fewer men who would dare to touch her.
Jing Xi didnt feel any different. She still smiled and said to mu Sen,There are fewer and fewer handsome guys nowadays. I went to see my second brother just now. Why do I feel that he has be uglier? I remember that he was the most handsome when I was young!
She wanted to ask why Mu Sen had be ugly, but she was too embarrassed to say it in front of mu Sen.
He had justplimented mu Sens handsomeness out of courtesy.
Jing Xi was a little bored. She felt that everyone was no longer the same as she was two years ago. Seriously, she had been so excited to see a handsome man, but he was not handsome anymore.
After a short chat, she found out that mu Sen was Jing Zhis best man. She smiled and said,youre the next one to get married. Then she left.
After they got home, Jing Xi was unhappy. Shangguan ning felt strange.Xixi, you were so happy when you went out. Why are you so sad when youre back? Who provoked you?
Jing Xi rested her head on Shangguan ningsp and said,Mom, I dont think Ill be able to get married!
Shangguan ning burst intoughter. She touched her daughters soft and smooth long hair and said, Youre still so young, and youre already thinking about the problem of not being able to get married? My daughter is so outstanding, there must be many people who like you!
Chapter 1397
Chapter 1397: Growing
Trantor: 549690339
Dontugh, its true! I used to think that my second brother was very handsome and it would be good to marry him. Mu Sen was also very handsome and had a good temper. It would be good to marry him. But I just went to see the two of them and they were not handsome anymore! Theyre not handsome anymore, so who else is more handsome?
Shangguan ning knew about Jing Xis insistence on marrying mu Sen and Jing Zhi when she was a child, but she had never taken her daughters childish words to heart.
Anyway, she would change her target in a few days. Except for her own brother Jing Rui, she had imed that she would marry anyone who was handsome. Shangguan ning had gotten used to it.
Shangguan ning was surprised that her daughter wasining that he was not handsome.Jing Zhi and mu Sen didnt change. At most, Jing Zhi became thinner and mu Sen became paler. Both of them are handsome young men. Do you like the ones overseas now?
Shangguan ning suspected that her daughter had been abroad for too long and had fallen in love with Caucasians or ck people.
Jing Xi understood what Shangguan ning meant. She said helplessly,Mom, what are you thinking? I still like to be nted by myself! However, it seems that there are no handsome men among the yellow-skinned people. Youve already snatched my dad away. So, I cant get married!
Shangguan ning couldnt stopughing.Oh, its okay. You can marry your father. All daughters are their fathers lovers in their previous lives.
Aiyo, mother, forget it. My dads lover in his past life and his past past past life must have been you. I can only be his daughter for a few lifetimes! You dont know this, but when I came back this morning, he went to pick me up. I wanted to give him a hug, but he didnt want it!
Are your clothes dirty? Your father is a clean freak!
Jing Xi pulled at her clothes to show Shangguan ning.This is my first time wearing new clothes! Its clean!
Oh, its also possible that hes afraid that a hug would crumple his clothes. He has an important meeting today, so he left after sending you back.
When you carried him, didnt you see that my dad was not afraid of crumpling his clothes? He wouldnt be happy if you didnt hug him!
Jing Xiined to her father, then continued to cry,I cant get married. Look, everyone else is married, but Im not!
Shangguan ningughed when she heard her daughters tearfulints. She had been fanatical about getting married since she was a child. She didnt criticize her at all.
Your second brothers wedding is tomorrow. You cane along and have fun. Who knows, there might even be a handsome guy at the wedding?
Jing Xis eyes lit up. She got up and kissed Shangguan ning on the cheek.Mother is the best in the world!
She happily jumped off the sofa barefooted and went to look for the clothes she was going to wear tomorrow.
Seeing that she was still acting like a child, Shangguan ning smiled and went to pick with her. Dont pick one thats too mature. Im tired of seeing you keep a straight face outside. Its better to be so lively at home!
Thats different. Youre my mother. I can do whatever I want in front of you. No one else will spoil me! Of course, I have to be more mature and quiet, or else Ill be at a disadvantage!
Jing Xis maturity and calmness were not an act. As she grew older, she faced more and more challenges. Jing Yichen did not rx his expectations and training of her just because she was a girl.
She was really different from an ordinary thirteen-year-old girl.
The past two years had not been for fun. She had spent every day in high-intensity learning and physical training.
She was just like a child in front of Shangguan ning, acting cute and lively.
Also, my dad said that he wont help me clean up the trouble I caused and will let me solve it myself. I dont dare to mess around like before, or else I wouldnt have so much money to pay for it!
Jing Xi picked out two sets of clothes and changed into new ones in front of Shangguan ning.
Shangguan nings heart ached when she saw the bruises on her body. Youre a girl, why do you train every day? Your brother cant train by himself, and now he wants you to follow him. Your dad listens to me in everything except for the education of the two of you.
Jing Xi didnt care at all. She smiled and said,Thats right, because my brother and I are both willing. Otherwise, how can we protect you and my dad in the future? Its rare that my dad doesnt listen to you. Its really rare!
In fact, Jing Yichen had already made a lot of concessions in Jing Xis education. If it had not been for Shangguan nings reluctance, Jing Xi would have started training when she was six years old.
Jing Xi had been ying in China until she was 11, and that was her limit.
Shangguan ning touched her daughters head and said in a low voice,I also hope that you can be stronger. Its not good for a girl to be too weak, its easy to be at a disadvantage. Your father and I cant protect you forever, and your brother has his own family. When hes busy, he wont be able to take care of you. No one can be stronger than you!
Jing Xi was shocked by her mothers words.
No one could be stronger than you!
Jing Xi had always wanted to be stronger, and her goal had always been to protect her mother and father. She had never thought of protecting herself.
In the eyes of outsiders, family Jing was a glorious family. She had lived a carefree life for thirteen years, but it was Jing Yichen and Jing Rui who had protected her from all the dangers.
Jing Xi didnt want to be protected by them forever. She hoped that one day, she could also protect her family.
She was so smart that she could learn anything!
She would definitely be able to learn what her brother knew!
When Jing Yichen got home after work, he saw his wife and daughter in each others arms, their eyes red.
Xixi, he said, frowning.Why did you make your mother angry the moment you came back?
Jing Xi immediately raised her head andined to Shangguan ning,Mom, my dad is shouting at me!
Shangguan ningughed.Yichen, Xixi is such a good girl. She didnt make me angry. I just feel bad for her when I saw the bruises on her body.
Jing Yichen replied with an Oh and said after some thought,Then let Xixi rest for two days,
Jing Xi shook her head helplessly.Mom, youre the one whos important. My dad didnt even n to let me attend my second brothers wedding. He wanted me to do training! Am I really your biological daughter?!
You caused so much trouble when you were young. If you werent my biological daughter, I would have thrown you away long ago.
A smile appeared on Jing Yichens face. He was actually very satisfied with his daughter. Jing Xi was much more sensible than before.
At the very least, now that he had gone abroad to harm people, no one in the schools, teachers, and ssmates of A city wouldin to him anymore!
Your second brothers wedding is tomorrow. Youre not allowed to mess around when youre there.
How could that be!
Im just giving my second brother some of my handiwork. Im sure hell like it! Jing Xi smiled.
Chapter 1398
Chapter 1398: Pink bubbles
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Yichen was worried that his daughter would make a scene at the wedding, and Jing Zhi, the groom, was more worried.
That night, he held the wedding gift from Jing Xi and hesitated for a long time, but he did not open it.
However, he couldnt just throw it away. If Jing Xi really gave him a piece of art that she had made herself, it would be a pity to throw it away. If Jing Xi found out that he had thrown the gift away, he would be in big trouble.
So Jing Zhi kept the present and nned to open it in two days.
After dawn, Jing Zhi, Jing Rui, mu Sen, and the others went to the Zheng family to pick up the bride ording to the wedding custom.
The wedding was very Grand, and half of the people in A city were joining in the fun and snatching the wedding candy.
After the marriage with family Jing, the Zheng familys status in A city had risen to a new level.
No matter how much Zheng Jing disliked Jing Zhi, he would not show it on such a big day. When Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo offered him tea, he gave him a red packet with a smile.
Zheng yuluo was very happy. Jing Zhi had called Zheng Jing dad and Zheng Jing looked very satisfied. He said a lot of well wishes and the two were no longer at each others throats.
After leaving the Zheng family, the group of them took a detour around half of A city and went to the church.
Zheng Jing handed his daughter over to Jing Zhi. Under the guidance of the priest, the two of them made an oath and exchanged rings.
Zheng yuluo had wanted to skip this part. She had thought that a Chinese wedding would be enough, but Jing Zhi didnt agree. He would rather go through the trouble and marry Zheng yuluo in a solemn church.
He did not want Zheng yuluo to have any regrets. After all, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.
Jing Xi didnt move at all from the end of the wedding to the end. She stood quietly by Shangguan nings side the whole time and didnt look like she was going to cause any trouble.
Jing Zhi was finally relieved. He thought that he might have been overthinking it. Jing Xi had grown up after all. She would not be as mischievous as she was when she was a child.
The wedding banquet ended at four in the afternoon. It was only FiveO clock when Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo got home.
Because of her wedding, Zheng yuluo was dressed in a bright red Chinese dress, which exuded a hint of charm.
She had put on makeup, and her facial features were particrly three-dimensional and exquisite.
But she remembered that Jing Zhi didnt like her makeup, so she washed her face as soon as she got home.
Jing Zhi saw hering out of the bathroom with a clean face. He couldnt help but hug her with a smile.Why are you removing your makeup so quickly? I havent seen enough yet!
I thought you didnt like my makeup? Last time at the bar, I put on makeup and you still criticized me!
Zheng yuluo touched her face and asked Jing Zhi,Do I look better with makeup or without makeup?
Jing Zhi did prefer Zheng yuluo without makeup. Her facial features were beautiful enough and didnt need any makeup.
However, Zheng yuluo, who had makeup on today, also had a different style and was very beautiful.
Theyre both good-looking. As long as its you, Ill like them all!
Zheng yuluoughed. She had realized that Jing Zhi was getting better at talking. His sharp edges had disappeared, and he no longer spoke sternly. All that remained was gentleness.
Jing Zhi kissed Zheng yuluos smooth face, then went to the bathroom to take a shower and change his clothes.
Zheng yuluo wandered around the vi alone. There were many wedding gifts piled up in the living room. There were kitchenware, tableware, cups, and so on given by the rtives of the Zheng family, which meant that the couple would be in love for a lifetime and have a child soon.
One of the paper bags contained a gift that was tightly wrapped. Zheng yuluo did not remember anyone giving it to her, so she opened it out of curiosity.
The gift was wrapped inyers. Zheng yuluos fingers were sore by the time she had unwrapped all the packages!
There was a beautiful pink bubble inside. It was a little like jelly, and the fragrance was overflowing, making people a little intoxicated.
When he poked it with his finger, the translucent bubble could even sink in. It was very stic and very fun.
When Jing Zhi came out of the bathroom, he saw Zheng yuluo poking a palm-sized pink bubble.
What is this? A balloon?
Jing Zhi was confused as well. He reached out to pinch it, but the bubble burst the moment he touched it.
The rich aroma instantly enveloped the two of them.
Zheng yuluo was stunned.I couldnt break it no matter how hard I tried. Why did it break when you touched it?
Jing Zhi smelled the fragrance and suddenly had a bad feeling. He looked at the dozens ofyers of wrapping paper that Zheng yuluo had torn open and asked,You took this bubble out of a paper bag, right?
Zheng yuluo nodded and said,yes, who gave this gift? Why does it look like a bubble for children to y with?
Xixi gave it to me. Shes just a child! He said.
Oh, she gave it to me! When I saw her today, I almost couldnt recognize her. Women change 18 times as they grow up. Shes only 13 years old, but shes already a beauty!
As Zheng yuluo spoke, she touched her face and asked in confusion,Why do I feel a little hot? Your face is a little hot, and your heartbeat doesnt seem normal.
Jing Zhi closed his eyes, picked up Zheng yuluo, and strode upstairs.
I was wondering why she was so honest today! So you were waiting for me here!
Jing Zhis breathing was also in a mess. The wedding gift from the little girl was actually a strong aphrodisiac!
Normal medicine would not work on Jing Zhi. Jing Xi had probably made this medicine specifically for his body.
No wonder she said that it was her handiwork!
In just a short while, Zheng yuluos eyes were already blurred. Her face kept rubbing against his chest, and her tongue was even licking unconsciously!
Jing Zhi was about to go crazy. He threw Zheng yuluo on the bed, resisted the strong desire in his heart, took off Zheng yuluos clothes, and pressed on her.
The effect of the medicine was very strong. Zheng yuluo took the initiative to hug Jing Zhi, kiss him, and call his name non-stop.
Jing Zhi couldnt stand it.
He didnt know if he should scold Jing Xi or thank her.
Jing Zhi hugged Zheng yuluos body. He felt his blood boiling as he climbed to the top with her.
However, this was just the beginning.
Zheng yuluo felt that she had just had a long, erotic dream. In the dream, she and Jing Zhi had sex shamelessly without feeling tired at all.
The dream was so beautiful that Zheng yuluo didnt even want to wake up. She hugged Jing Zhis neck tightly and moaned uncontrobly in cooperation with his storm.
Outside, the sun was shining brightly. The light shone through the window into the bedroom, and it was warm and peaceful.
Zheng yuluo was in a daze. What was going on? shouldnt it be night time now? Why is the sun so bright outside?
She moved slightly, but her whole body ached so badly that it was difficult for her to even get out of bed!

Youre awake?
Jing Zhis low and hoarse voice came from above Zheng yuluos head, followed by a light kiss.
Zheng yuluo was no longer sleepy. She widened her eyes and said,We
She was in pain all over, especially in a certain part of her lower body!
Yeah, baby, you were too passionatest night. I couldnt hold it in, so It was a little intense.
How can this be? I thought I thought it was a dream!
Zheng yuluos face turned red. Did she spend the whole night with Jing Zhi?
However, her impression of him was very vague and she could not remember the details!
There had never been such a situation before!
Jing Zhi smiled and pinched Zheng yuluos chin.Who told you to open Xixis gift? we both fell into the little girls trap! He said.
You mean that pink bubble?
Yes, her masterpiece!
Jing Xi, who had given her masterpiece, did not feel that she had cheated her second brother at all. She felt that she was creating benefits for her second brother.
Of course, she had never used pink bubbles before, but she had tested it on various small animals. The effects were remarkable, and the chances of conception were greatly improved.
The few pairs of kittens and puppies that she had experimented on had already given birth to babies, and they were in good health.
Jing Xi was holding a pink bubble in her hand, wondering if she should give it to her parents.
Would she be beaten to death by her father after using it?
This was thest pink bubble. It was too risky to make this kind of thing. If she was not careful, she could poison herself. Jing Xi was very careful every time she did this. She had to wear protective clothing and a gas mask.
Jing Xi took her bubbles out on the street in a dilemma.
The small bubbles had the maximum load capacity, so they usually wouldnt burst with light rubbing and pinching. After pinching it with force, its sticity would slowly disappear, and it would burst with a light touch.
So Jing Xi only held it in her hand and yed with it, not pinching it hard.
At Jing Zhis wedding yesterday, Jing Xi had seen a few handsome men, the most outstanding of whom was Zheng yuluos distant cousin.
He was a rtive of Zheng yuluos grandmother, PEI Xinhua. His name was Pei Yan.
He looked young, handsome, and bright. When he smiled, he revealed a set of white teeth, giving people a warm and favorable impression.
This kind of boy looked like he had never suffered much since he was young. He was a little conceited and a little naive.
Jing Xi had recently fallen in love with this type. She didnt like those who were too cold, as it was hard to chase after them. She also didnt like those who were too passionate, as it was boring.
Jing Xi had already found out about Pei Yans background yesterday.
He was neen years old and in his first year of University. He had a girlfriend who had been in a rtionship with him for three years in high school. Now, they were in a different ce. His girlfriend was studying in a different University, while Pei Yan was studying at the local university of X.
Jing Xi didnt care about puppy love at all, but she had always thought that puppy love would always lead to a premature death.
The chauffeur drove Jing Xi to X University, and two bodyguards in suits followed behind her, protecting her at all times.
Jing Xi felt that it was too eye-catching and drove the two bodyguards away.
Whoever dared toy their hands on her would be thrown into the hospital for days and nights, unless they had Jing Zhis willpower and physical strength.
The two bodyguards had already seen the power of the cute-looking bubble in Jing Xis hand. Moreover, Jing Xi had an endless number of things on her, so she had no problem protecting herself.
Therefore, the two of them only followed him from a distance and didnt get close.
Jing Xi walked around the campus slowly and pretended to bump into Pei Yan by ident.
Aiyo!
Im sorry, Im sorry. Are you okay?
Pei Yan politely apologized to Jing Xi, who had deliberately bumped into him. When Jing Xi raised her head, he said in surprise,Jing Xi?
Jing Xi was stunned. This handsome guy actually knew her!
At the wedding yesterday, they had only spoken one sentence, and Jing Xi had not told him her name.
The surname Jing was too ostentatious in A city, and people in other cities would also suspect that she had something to do with the Jing family, so Jing Xi usually said her surname was Shangguan in public.
Although the surname Shangguan was rare, that was all there was to it. No one would think that Jing Xi had a great background and thus have any ideas about her.
It didnt matter to Jing Xi whether she took her fathers or her mothers surname. She thought that the double surname Shangguan sounded especially nice and elegant. She always said that her name was Shangguan Xi when she went out.
Pei Yan must have asked the Zheng family about her if she could call out her real name.
In other words, this handsome guy was also very interested in her.
Jing Xi was very happy. It was rare to meet someone who was interested in her. Many men always thought that she was too small and only focused on the charming women with big breasts and thin waists.
You know me?
Of course! We met at my cousins wedding yesterday and even talked. You might not have noticed.
Pei Yans smile was bright, as if she was very happy to meet Jing Xi.
How could he not be happy?
She was the only daughter of family Jing and the Apple of Jing Yichens eye. She was a beautiful and wealthy Princess.
At first nce, one could tell that she was still a little loli who had not grown up. She was dressed somewhat maturely and was tall, but she had a baby face and some baby fat. Her young appearance could not lie.
Speaking of which, were also rtives! My name is Pei Yan, and Zheng yuluo is my cousin. Ive heard her praise you countless times. When I saw you yesterday, I felt that she wasnt exaggerating at all when she said little fairy!
Pei Yan was a little extroverted. She had no pride in front of Jing Xi. She was bright, witty, and gave people a good feeling.
No man had ever praised Jing Xi so openly before. His feelings for her were almost written all over his face.
This was different from Jing Zhi and mu Sens praise. They said that she was beautiful because they felt that she was an older brother looking at his younger sister, but Pei Yan did not see her as a younger sister at all.
Jing Xi had never experienced love before. At the age of 13, although she knew what she should and shouldnt know, she had never really been moved.
She still did not understand what love was.
She had always thought that love was marriage.
The Pei Yan in front of her was tall, handsome, humorous, and very attentive to her.
Jing Xi touched her chest and was a little confused. Why did her heartbeat not change at all? Shouldnt his heart be beating faster?
Aiya, she didnt care anymore. It was fine as long as she found Pei Xiao quite pleasing to the eye!
She called out to Pei Yan in a crisp voice,brother PEI, youre also very handsome! Isnt your girlfriend pretty too?
Pei Yan only paused for a second before smiling.I dont have a girlfriend!
Jing Xi was stunned. They broke up?
She knew it. Puppy love was not reliable. After going to college and having a long-distance rtionship, they would break up sooner orter!
Well, the handsome guy was single now, so could she make a move?
Chapter 1400
Chapter 1400: How kind I am
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi held the pink bubbles in her hand gently, hesitating whether she should use thest one on Pei Yan.
Pei Yan was already chatting with Jing Xi very familiarly.Are you also studying at university of X? Which major are you from?
Jing Xi was currently studying at a foreign university, but she couldnt say that. Only by saying that she was studying at university of X would she be closer to Pei Yan!
I study gics, what about you?
She casually came up with a major. Anyway, she had learned a lot of gic knowledge from Shuyin and knew the situation of University of X like the back of her hand, so she wasnt afraid of being exposed.
Pei Yans smile was bright. Just as she was about to speak, a long-haired beauty came from the opposite side and threw herself into his arms, pouting.My dear, I havent seen you for a few days. Did you forget me and get together with another woman?
As the beautiful woman spoke, she nced at Jing Xi with disdain, as if Jing Xi was a bad woman who had stolen her sweetheart.
Pei Yans smile broke, but he was not flustered. Instead, he calmly pushed the woman away and turned to Jing Xi.Dont misunderstand, were just normal friends. I only had one girlfriend, a high school ssmate, but weve broken up.
He was unbelievably calm, without a trace of awkwardness, making it easy for people to believe his words.
Unfortunately, the person he was up against was not an ordinary person.
Jing Xi threw the pink toy in her hand and smiled.Brother PEI, you dont have to exin it to me. Its normal for you to have a girlfriend. After all, youre very handsome!
The beautiful woman was instantly unhappy.Who are you? get lost. Do any random cat or dog call my husband brother PEI now? Why didnt you take a look at yourself in the mirror? you dont have any breasts or buttocks, just like a brick. Youre not even an adult yet you have the nerve to seduce men outside! Youre shameless!
Jing Xi was a little surprised. She had been carefully protected by her parents and brothers all her life. Although she had suffered a lot, it was Jing Yichens deliberate training for her, and Jing Xi had been mentally prepared for it.
It was the first time in her thirteen years of life that she had been pointed at and scolded.
Moreover, Jing Xi had always wanted to grow up, and she hated it when people said that she was t-chested, even though she had just started to develop at the age of 13 and did not have any breasts.
Pei Yan stood at the side and looked at Jing Xis stunned eyes. Her whole face had turned pale.
This was Jing Xi!
She had lived like a princess since she was young. No one dared to speak to her like that!
Moreover, this was apletely unexpected disaster!
Pei Yan directly gave the beauty a p.Get lost! Shes my sister, is she someone you can scold?
The beautiful woman was pped hard and cried in anger,Youre lying! Youre the only one in your family, you dont have a sister at all! You coaxed me to bed before, and now you dont recognize me after weve slept together? In your dreams!
She couldnt beat Pei Yan, so she turned around and reached out to p Jing Xi.
However, before her hand could touch Jing Xis face, she heard a crack in her wrist. The bone was broken!
Ah!
The beautiful woman screamed in pain. Her face was pale and her eyes were filled with anger. It was as if she wanted to burn Jing Xi to death.
Jing Xi slowly retracted her hand, and the smile on her face disappeared.It seems that there arent many people who are so arrogant nowadays.
Pei Yan pulled the beauty behind her, her forehead covered in cold sweat.Jing Xi, dont be angry. Dont lower yourself to her level. She doesnt know your identity and said the wrong thing. Please forgive her this time!
Jing Xi looked up at the tall Pei Yan and suddenly felt that this person was not handsome at all. He was quite ugly.
This wasnt a matter of status at all. If she was just a little girl from an ordinary family, should she allow others to humiliate and abuse her?
Pei Yan clearly had a girlfriend, and she might have more than one, but she still said she didnt have one. She was really shameless.
Was this what her mother had said about the sinister human heart?
It turned out that such a bright and outstanding boy had a dark heart.
Jing Xi was still confused, but her hand was empty. The cute pink bubble had been taken away.
The bubble looked like a bubble blown out by children with soap. It was translucent, light pink, and looked like it would burst with a single poke, but it was actually very stic and could be molded into various shapes.
The beautiful woman behind Pei Yan had a vicious look on her face. She snatched Jing Xis bubble and said fiercely,You like this thing? Hmph, then Ill definitely snatch yours!
She was so angry that if Pei Yan hadnt stopped her, she wouldnt have just snatched the bubble but would have scratched Jing Xis face!
Pei Yan was already going crazy with anger. He said sternly,Immediately return it! Who allowed you to touch her things?
Jing Xis beautiful eyes lit up, and she smiled.Its fine, its just a toy. She might be the same as me, only thirteen years old. Since she likes this kind of little thing, Ill give it to her!
Jing Xi turned around and left.
The bubble had been pinched by the beauty a few times just now, and it was probably close to the critical value. It was no joke that it burst!
Let those two enjoy it. She was only thirteen years old, and that kind of scene was not suitable for children!
Not long after Jing Xi left, the bubble burst with a pop.
The fragrance was overflowing and extremely rich, and heat rose in Pei Yans body instantly!
This feeling was very familiar, and Pei Yan instantly understood what was going on. He cursed,damn it. Ignoring the broken wrist of the beauty in his arms, he quickly dragged her into the pine forest on the campus. It was toote to go back to the dormitory or to the hotel!
Miss, do you want us to go and teach those two a lesson?
No need, theyre being lovey-dovey, dont disturb them.
Miss, youre too kind. We cant let such a person off so easily in the future.
Thats right, Im so kind, I even gave them thest pink pill. Its broad daylight, wont I beughed at if Im naked! Oh my, you might even catch a cold!
Jing Xi mumbled to herself. She was no longer in the mood to look for handsome guys on campus. She was a little bored. Life would be meaningless if she didnt be a bad kid for many days.
Inparison, it was more interesting to be put under Jing Yichens pressure and go through high-intensity training.
The next day, Jing Xi asked for more training. Jing Yichen sent his daughter abroad again, feeling confused.
The Spring Festival wasing soon, and Jing Xi did not even go home for the new year. At the age of 14, she was on a closed-off ind, participating in survival training with more than 100 military school students.
Although this kind of training was a bit tough, Jing Xi liked it very much.
There was no other reason. Most of the people who participated in the survival training were men, and they were all around 20 years old. They were brave and handsome, and arge number of them met Jing Xis aesthetic standards!
Chapter 1401
Chapter 1401: Survival
Trantor: 549690339
The ind wasrge and not dangerous. There was only one most basic and fatal problem: Food was scarce.
The people on the ind were being eliminated one after another. Some people couldnt hold on any longer and took the initiative to send out distress signals to withdraw.
In a months time, there were more than one hundred and twenty people, but now only half of them were left.
Jing Xis survival skills were improving rapidly, and her temperament was also slowly changing.
She had grown up under the wings of her parents and had heard a lot of deception, but she had rarely experienced it herself.
However, in the past month, she had been betrayed more than a dozen times.
In the beginning, she would give her food to her teammates generously, fight with them, and eliminate others.
Unfortunately, someone had plotted against her behind her back for the sake of food. Someone had felt that she would be a huge threat and wanted to get rid of her in advance.
Because of her kindness and blind trust, she paid a heavy price. Not only was she injured, but she also ran out of food and ammunition.
The weather on the ind was constantly changing. One moment it was clear and dark, and the next it was pouring.
Jing Xi was lying under a big tree. The cold rain had soaked her clothes. She was in pain all over, but her eyes were bright and not dejected at all.
In the past, her mother had taught her to be upright, kind, and to help when she could when others were in trouble.
Jing Yichen had never refuted these views. He had also said that one should be honest.
But now, Jing Xi understood that Jing Yichen was telling her with the cruel truth that she could not be blindly kind.
Some people could be helped, and some people could never be helped.
Just yesterday, a girl she had once helped came to give her fresh water and wanted her to live.
Among more than a hundred people, there were still good people.
Another person slowly entered her line of sight. With a piece of fresh and tender fish, he squatted down beside her and stuffed it into her mouth.
However, Jing Xi did not remember helping the man in front of her.
She ate the fish and was in a good mood. She sized up the man who was drenched.
En, his figure was very good, very tall, very strong, and his skin was actually very white. He had been sunbathing on the ind for more than a month, and it was really rare that he didnt turn ck!
Good, handsome!
Youve already fallen to such a state, and you still have the mood toment on whether other people are handsome or not?
You can read minds? Jing Xi was surprised.
Your expression exins everything. Even if I cant read your mind, I can still tell what youre thinking. Youd better not be so smitten with men, maybe youll live longer!
Jing Xi smiled and said in a clear voice,Life here is so hard, I have to find some fun, right?
She looked like she was infatuated with men, but in fact, this was also the best disguise.
She was now on guard against everyone, and she would never fall in love just because the other party was handsome and brave.
In fact, she had never fallen in love with anyone at the age of fourteen.
There were already more than a dozen handsome men on the ind who had been killed by her own hands. Just because she thought that they were handsome did not mean that she would not do it!
In a ce like this, it was either you die or I die. Jing Xi did not want to be eliminated too early, or she would beughed at by her father and brother when she got home.
Jing Xi got up from the ground and sat against the tree. She didnt care about being drenched by the rain. The sun would be out soon, and the water would dry up soon.
Why did you help me? I dont think Ive ever helped you. Is it because you think Im pretty?
Jing Xi smiled, not at all depressed or unwilling.
The man was surprised by her optimism, but he didnt seem to care if she was optimistic or pessimistic.
He stood up with the gun in his hand. Without even looking at Jing Xi, he said,I cant disobey my fathers orders.
Eh, did your father ask you to protect me?
Jing Xi was surprised.That shouldnt be. Why did your father ask you toe? she asked.Why didnt my father ask you toe? It seems that only my father will always find someone to protect me, right? We dont have the same father, do we? Youre my long-lost brother? Oh, right, we might be half-siblings! Aiya, my mom is so pitiful. She must not know that my dad has an affair!
Her thoughts jumped so quickly that the man was a little speechless. He had only said four words, and she hade up with a bunch of messy conclusions! If Jing Yichen knew that he had been framed by his daughter, would he be so angry that he would abandon his daughter on the ind?
You dont remember me?
Ah, did we know each other before? Whats your name? I know too many handsome guys, so I cant remember who they are!
Jing Xi finally became serious. She looked at the person in front of her carefully. She thought for a long time, and even after the rain had stopped, she still could not remember who this person was.
The other party didnt seem to have any intention of revealing his identity. He took his gun and carried his bag and walked away unhurriedly.
The sun was shining on him, so bright that Jing Xi could not open her eyes.
She blocked the sunlight with her hands and tried to remember this persons back. She wasnt sure if he was a friend or a foe, so of course she wouldnt trust himpletely.
After the sun came out, the temperature on the ind Rose rapidly. Jing Xi took off her coat, only wearing the camouge vest. She found a small puddle, washed her coat, and hung it on a branch to dry.
She climbed up the tree and picked a few wild fruits to fill her stomach.
When she jumped down from the tree, she looked at her two small bumps on her chest and couldnt help but sigh.No, I need to eat more nutritious food, or the little bun will never grow up!
The man just now was too petty and only gave her a little fish to eat. If she didnt want to starve, she had to think of a way herself.
Jing Xi put on a half-dried coat and a pair of wet leather boots and went to y with people.
She had a lot of ideas, and ordinary people were no match for her. As long as she was willing, she could guarantee that she would live well.
Previously, she had trusted her teammates too much, leaving all the food and other things to the captain for safekeeping. She had never thought that she would be kicked out of the team!
Her contribution was obviously the highest, but she was rejected by everyone. This didnt make sense!
So, Jing Xi had gone back for revenge!
There were nine people in their team, and if Jing Xi was excluded, there were eight more.
Although Jing Xi was very strong, it was impossible for her to defeat eight armed men with her bare hands.
So, she sneaked an attack on another team and then led them to her original team.
The two teams were fighting fervently below, and she sat on the high tree branch alone to watch the fun.
There were people constantly sending out distress signals, and the Military Academy instructors would quickly take them away.
Jing Xi jumped off the branch happily and picked up some food and guns. She turned around and saw a man hiding in the grass. She raised her hand and fired.
The other party was extremely unwilling, but he was quickly taken away.
Jing Xi said in a crisp voice,Youll have to pay for what youve done sooner orter!
Chapter 1402
Chapter 1402: Its just a stomach ache
Trantor: 549690339
With food and enough bullets, Jing Xi stopped trying to trick him.
She strolled around the ind unhurriedly. The ind was veryrge. She had been here for more than a month and only cared about running for her life. Now, she finally had the mood and time to take a good stroll.
It was a tropical ind with beautiful scenery. When the weather was good, you could even see dolphins jumping out of the sea and moving forward happily.
Jing Xi didnte here for the first ce. Jing Yichen just wanted her to have a more fulfilling life.
Therefore, she would never risk her life.
Although the training in the military school was cruel, it was not life-threatening. Everyones bullets were specially made, so they would not kill anyone.
However, so far, out of more than one hundred and twenty people, seven had already died.
If one wasnt careful enough or was unlucky enough to fall into the sea and be swallowed by a shark, they could still die.
Therefore, Jing Xi would usually sit on the high tree branches and enjoy the scenery instead of sitting by the sea.
She even felt that after going through this training, she would have some psychological trauma at the beach at home. After all, she had seen with her own eyes a girl who was too careless and was eaten by sharks.
The weather had been good for the past few days, and Jing Xi was in a good mood. She really didnt like rain. Although it would be cooler, it was wet everywhere, and her clothes were stuck to her body.
Sheid on the branch and ate the eggs she had taken from the birds nest. She touched the little bun on her chest and muttered,After eating so many eggs, why arent they growing? Moms is quite big, why didnt I inherit it?
Help, my friend on the tree, can you save me? Ive been bitten by a venomous snake!
A girls pitiful voice came from under the tree, but Jing Xi didnt even look at it. She continued to eat the bird egg as if she hadnt heard anything.
Do you have any medicine? Ill use other items to exchange with you, anything!
The voice continued, with a hint of perseverance.
Of course, Jing Xi had the medicine, but she had stolen it from someone else. Her share had long been taken away.
Now, she would never be deceived again.
The Military Academy had thrown arge group of people on an isted ind. Of course, it was not to send everyone to die. There were many kinds of poisonous snakes on the ind, and if you were not careful, you would lose your life. Therefore, the Military Academy had given everyone antidotes and various anti-inmmatory drugs. They had even given everyone an extra set of clothes and some other small things, such as lighters.
Jing Xi didnt want to talk to the person under the tree, but she couldnt stop him from shouting.
She jumped down from the tree and aimed her gun at the mans chest.This is a robbery!
Were both girls, cant you just help me? There are very few girls on this Ind, so why should we kill each other and let those men benefit in the end?
Chai ruoyun clutched her injured calf and sat there looking at Jing Xi warily. She was also holding a gun in her hand as she tried her best to persuade Jing Xi.
Youve helped me this time. Ill help you next time!
Jing Xi suddenlyughed. She had heard these words countless times since she came to this Ind!
Cut the crap. Hand over everything you have and Ill let you live. Otherwise, youll be eliminated immediately!
As Jing Xi was speaking, a few people suddenly rushed out from all directions. She quickly counted and found that there were five of them in total, forming a perfect circle.
Yo, youre actually using such a big formation to catch me! Didnt I say that you were pretending when you shouted and said that you were bitten by a poisonous snake?
Jing Xi didnt seem to panic at all. There were six of them in total. If she used them well, she could kill them all.
Chai ruoyun had already stood up from the ground. She pointed her gun at Jing Xis head and said hatefully,Of course Im pretending. You caused my boyfriend to be eliminated early. I must avenge him!
No wonder theyre all so despicable! Jing Xi suddenly realized.
As she spoke, she fired without hesitation.
After being hit, the distress signal from Chai ruoyuns body was automatically released.
However, Chai ruoyun had fired her gun a secondter than Jing Xi and had not hit Jing Xis vital part.
The other five people were a little nervous and started shooting at Jing Xi. They had heard that there was a girl who was not only very good at standing alone, but also very good at tricking people!
Several small teams had beenpletely annihted by her, and the five of them had prepared themselves for a long time beforeing.
He only dared toe today after making sure that she waspletely alone.
However, Jing Xi was not alone. She was leading a group of snakes!
All five of their guns missed their targets because a lot of venomous snakes suddenly emerged from the forest and pounced on them.
More importantly, there was another small team on the outside, waiting for an opportunity to intercept and kill them.
Jing Xi had sessfully escaped, but she had been shot twice. The bullets were not fatal and did not even prate her protective vest, but they still hurt.
She sat under a tree with a pale face and tried to bury herself in the grass.
She thought she would be fine after a short rest, but her stomach was getting more and more painful. Jing Xi kept thinking about what had just happened. Had she been poisoned?
That shouldnt be the case. Didnt she just eat a few bird eggs? He had eaten it before, but he had never been poisoned.
She was very sensitive to things like poison. If someone used it on her, she would definitely be able to detect it.
The pain in her stomach made Jing Xi unable to sit still. She curled up in the grass, her mind constantly analyzing all the possibilities.
A pair of clean military boots appeared in her line of sight. The voice was a little proud and cold.Your face is very pale now. Send a distress signal!
Jing Xi raised her head and looked at him. She gritted her teeth and said,I just have a stomachache and ate something bad. Why did I send a distress signal? Stay away from me, dont take advantage of me!
If I wanted to take advantage of you, I wouldnt have given you foodst time.
Jing Xi clutched her stomach and asked with a pale face,Whats your dads name?
The man was silent for a moment before he said,Lou Mingyang.
Hearing this familiar name, Jing Xi finally heaved a sigh of relief. Alright, now she was really one of them.
No one on the entire Ind knew her true identity.
You are Lou Ziling?
Yes, Lou Ziling nodded.
You dont look like him. I remember you used to be very handsome. Why are you so ugly now?
It seems that youre fine. Ill be leaving then!
Lou Ziling said and turned to leave. She didnt seem to be joking at all.
Jing Xi was furious.Hey, hey, hey! Come back! Is this how your dad asked you to take care of me? Ill definitelyin to my dad when I get back!
Lou Ziling stopped in her tracks.
He had been forced by Lou Mingyang toe to this ce to protect Jing Xi, all for the sake of the Lou familys rise again.
Chapter 1403
Chapter 1403: Youre injured?
Trantor: 549690339
If Jing Xi really went back toin, his one month stay here would be meaningless.
The future of the Lou family was in the hands of the Jing family.
Both Jing Yichen and Jing Rui loved Jing Xi very much. She was the most favored child of family Jing and the most popr girl in A city.
After marrying her, several generations of people would be able to sit back and rx.
Lou Mingyang was upright. He almost never forced his children to do things that he didnt like. He also rarely used despicable means to seek benefits.
That was why family Jing didnt give up on family Loupletely, and the cooperation between the two families was slowly restored.
However, when there was a shortcut to a road, no merchant would waste effort to take the long way.
Lou Mingyang didnt expect his son to marry Jing Xi, but he wanted his son to have a good rtionship with the Jing family.
It was impossible to find a breakthrough from Jing Rui, and the most direct and effective breakthrough was Jing Xi.
The future of the Lou family would definitely be handed over to Lou Ziling. If Lou Ziling could have a good rtionship with Jing Xi, the Lou family could restore its former glory soon.
Lou Ziling took a deep breath, turned around, and picked Jing Xi up from the grass.
Jing Xi had wanted toin about him touching her, but she was in pain and cold all over. She had no strength to curse.
Compared to the tall Lou Ziling, Jing Xi, who was less than 1.6 meters tall, looked a little petite in his arms. Her pale face still had an obvious childlike look. She was obviously a child.
This child might not know yet, but she had already be a piece of fat meat that all the big families in A city wanted to eat before she even grew up.
For the past month, Lou Ziling didnt find anything special about Jing Xi, but he admired Jing Yichen more and more.
He did not raise Jing Xi to be an innocent girl just because her family was well-off enough. He could even let here into contact with the dark side of society and the unbearable human nature at such a young age.
He had also arranged for people to protect Jing Xi in the dark.
It didnt matter if she was eliminated. She could try again in the future, but her life couldnt be harmed.
The reason why he could protect Jing Xi at such a close distance was because Lou Mingyang had asked Jing Yichen to help him.
This was all thanks to the fact that he had unintentionally saved her once when she was eight years old. It was a rescue that had not been mixed with any personal thoughts or interests.
It was a pity that his mind was filled with nothing but profit.
Lou Ziling took Jing Xi to his territory, where he had set up traps to get rid of poisonous snakes and other dangerous animals. She could stay there for a while.
He put Jing Xi on the ground and asked with a frown,Youre injured?
Jing Xi clutched her stomach and leaned against him. She said weakly,No, the bullet did hit me, but it didnt even prate my clothes! Im probably poisoned, right?
Then why are you bleeding? Lou Ziling raised her arm.
His camouge uniform was stained red, and Jing Xi was stunned.Am I bleeding? Thats impossible, I wasnt injured. Are bullets that powerful now?
She pulled Lou Zilings clothes and rolled up his sleeves to see if his arm was bleeding.
As she flipped through it, she suddenly felt something warm in her lower body, and something slowly flowed out.
Jing Xi was stunned for a full minute, and then her pale face suddenly turned red and hot!
Oh no, this is so embarrassing!
For the first time in her life, Jing Xi knew what shame and anger were.
She had never been so embarrassed before. She had blown up the school and the building of Jingsheng enterprise, and she had never wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xis face, which had suddenly turned as red as a ripe tomato, and asked in confusion,Do you have a fever? Where was the wound? Ill help you deal with it!
When Jing Xi was surrounded by a group of people with guns pointed at her, she didnt even think about sending a distress signal. Now, she wanted to send a distress signal immediately and get someone to take her away!
That Im not injured. You dont have to worry about me. Lets go!
She pushed Lou Ziling to the side, trying to stay away from him.
However, Lou Ziling was not someone to be trifled with. Seeing that something was not right with Jing Xi, he grabbed Jing Xis arm and asked,You just said that your stomach hurt and you were poisoned. Howe youre fine now?
Jing Xi was so angry that she was about to jump.I told you Im fine! Get out of my sight! I need to solve my physiological problem!
Lou Ziling was stunned for a moment. Then, she realized what had happened to the blood on his clothes.
He immediately let go of Jing Xis arm. He felt a little ufortable, but his face was still calm. Im leaving.
It wasnt Lou Zilings fault for not thinking about the girls secrets. The woman he had been in contact with the most was his sister, Lou ruofei. However, Lou ruofei was a typical girl from a big family. She was very careful with her words and actions. How could she let her brother know about such a private thing like her period?
Lou Ziling had always been a loner, so the siblings were not very close. He only knew a few things about girls from his mother.
For example, during the few days when his sister was not feeling well every month, his mother would always make her a thick brown sugar water to drink. When he was very young, because he loved to eat sugar, he even drank it with her.
Lou Ziling didnt go too far away. Jing Xi didnt know that she was on her period. She said she was poisoned. It was ridiculous!
If he was not wrong, this was the first time Jing Xi had her period.
Otherwise, she would not be so ignorant.
After Lou Ziling left, Jing Xi finally heaved a sigh of relief. She was almost killed by her own stupidity!
She touched her pants. Her fingers were stained with blood. Thinking of the patch on Lou Zilings clothes, Jing Xi really wanted to hit a tree!
She had never had her period before. Shangguan ning had already taught her a lot about it and she knew everything she needed to know.
However, theory and reality were twopletely different things!
Jing Xi had never thought that she would be so unlucky to have her period when she was training on the ind.
Jing Xis lower abdomen was still aching, but she couldnt care less about the pain. She was in urgent need of sanitary products!
She rummaged through her backpack and found that there was nothing she needed except for food and bullets!
When there was a leak, it would rain overnight. She was feeling ufortable. The sun had disappeared, and dark clouds covered the sky. Large raindrops fell down.
Jing Xi sighed helplessly. She took out a hat from her bag and put it on. Then she took off her coat and tied it around her waist to cover her dirty pants. She was ready to go to the robbery with a gun.
She remembered that the military school seemed to distribute sanitary supplies to girls.
Otherwise, how did they manage to survive the past month? Its impossible not to have your period, right?
However, before she could leave, Lou Ziling slowly walked toward her in the rain.

Chapter 1404: I dont know how to use it
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Zilings camouge uniform was still stained red. Jing Xi felt her face burning again. She tried to calm herself down and said,Didnt I tell you to leave? Why did youe back?
Lets go home!
Lou Zilings voice did not change much. He just looked at Jing Xi. Jing Xi knew that he was on his period.
Why should I go home? Im fine here!
Its not a big deal Jing Xi muttered.Its not a big deal
Seeing that she didnt agree to go home, Lou Ziling took off his backpack, took out a clean coat from it, and put it on Jing Xi.Go hide in the tree hole. The rain is too heavy, youll catch a cold.
Go away! Jing Xi pushed his arm away.I cant talk to you now!
Why was she still hiding in the tree hole? she had to quickly find another girl and ask for some hygiene products!
Lou Ziling seemed to be able to see through her heart. She said,Wait here, dont go anywhere. Ill help you find what you want.
He turned around and quickly disappeared into the rain, leaving Jing Xi standing there in a daze.
She actually wanted to go home, but she felt that her period was not a big deal. Other than the pain in her lower abdomen, she did not lose her ability to move.
Now that there was someone to help her and take care of her, it seemed like she didnt need to go home anymore.
There were not many girls on the ind. Lou Ziling only met one after walking for a long time.
The girls who could survive here for more than a month were not ordinary people. They all had their own means of self-protection and could not be underestimated.
Lou Ziling didnt take the mans daily necessities and ammunition. Instead, she pointed her gun at the mans head and said,Give me all your sanitary items!
The girl almost thought she had heard wrong!
On this Ind, the most useless things were sanitary products!
Although the military school had distributed those things to every girl, most of them had taken special medicine in advance to avoid their periods from being a burden to their bodies. This ensured that they would not have their periods for the next one or two months.
Moreover, it was a little strange for a man to ask her for a girls item.
Perhaps, it was for his girlfriend?
Even after Lou Ziling had gotten what he wanted and walked far away, the girl was still in a daze. If only she had a boyfriend who was so good at taking care of people. She wouldnt have to struggle to survive on this Lonely Ind.
Lou Ziling returned to Jing Xis side as fast as she could. Seeing that she was sitting obediently in half of the tree hole, she handed her a smallpressed stic bag.
Ill be waiting for you at the side.
He turned around, walked a dozen meters away, and stood in the rain to wait.
Jing Xi held thepressed bag in her hand, feeling even more ufortable.
Whats going on? why do I feel so awkward?
He didnt know who he had asked for this thing from. People wouldugh at him!
Jing Xi opened thepressed bag and was a little dumbfounded. Other than a few thin pads, the rest were tampons with thin ropes!
Shangguan ning had taught her how to use pads and sanitary pads, but she had never mentioned that there were thin strips.
How was she supposed to use such a long thing that was about the size of her pinky finger?
Jing Xi had no choice but to use the pad first. She felt a lot more at ease. Then, holding a tampons, she hesitated for a while, but still walked to Lou Zilings side. She tilted her head and asked,Do you know how to use this?
You dont know how to use it? Lou Ziling was stunned.
Ive never seen this before, do you know how to do it?
Lou Zilings face turned red.Im a man, how could I use this kind of thing!
It had been a long time since he had blushed.
Jing Xi would drive him crazy sooner orter!
Oh, I think you understand quite well. I thought you knew everything! Youre so handsome, but you dont have a girlfriend?
Someone had said that he was ugly before, so why was he being praised as handsome now?
Lou Ziling didnt answer Jing Xis question. Instead, she repeated,You should go home!
As far as he knew, it was a special period for girls to not catch a cold. It was also a big taboo to get caught in the rain.
When his sister, Lou ruofei, was not feeling well, not only did she not drink cold water, but she also washed her hands with warm water. If it rained outside, she would never go out.
Jing Xi was aware of some taboos. Jing Yichen had been taking good care of Shangguan ning. If Shangguan ning was on her period, he would take care of her very carefully. The rain was indeed not good for her health.
However, she was still too young and ignorant. Although she felt ufortable, she felt that it was still within the range of her tolerance. There was no need to go home.
Lou Ziling couldnt persuade her, so he gave both of his coats to Jing Xi.
The camouge uniform and backpacks issued by the military school were waterproof. It was impossible to be waterproof for a long time, but the effect was much better when the two pieces were stacked.
Seeing that Lou Ziling was only wearing a tank top while she had two coats on her, Jing Xi felt a little guilty.Im fine. You should put on your clothes. Thank you for taking care of me. Ill tell my father when I get home.
Lou Ziling had followed Jing Xi and protected her in secret for more than a month. He had been drenched in the heavy rain all because of Jing Xis words.
Lou Mingyang had said that he didnt want to make any mistakes. As long as he could leave a good impression in Jing Xis heart, he would havepleted the task.
Lou Ziling heaved a sigh of relief and took Jing Xi away from the rain.
The heavy rain did not stop. The sky gradually darkened, and the danger in the forest slowly increased.
Rainy days and dark nights were the best time for many people to make a move. Such conditions were very suitable for a sneak attack.
A few waves of people had surrounded Lou Ziling and Jing Xi, but Lou Ziling had dealt with them all by himself.
Jing Xi didnt even make a move.
She looked at the man sitting beside her in shock. She had never known that he was so powerful!
Jing Xi had fought many people on the ind, and she knew their general strength. Now, the only person she was not clear about was the person beside her.
His personality was extremely reticent, calm, and self-restraint. He was not willing to say a single word, but he was always paying attention to the movements around him. His reaction was extremely strong, his perception was sharp, and he was good at nning and nning.
If he really participated in this training, he would definitely be the final winner!
Lou Ziling, whats your IQ? Jing Xi couldnt help asking.
Lou Ziling handed Jing Xi a piece of dried meat and sat in the tree hole in silence, not answering Jing Xis question.
The hole in the tree was only big enough for Lou Ziling. In order to let Jing Xi hide in it, he spent a lot of effort and dug out a part of the trunk.
Fortunately, the trees on the ind had been growing for hundreds of years and were rtively thick. Otherwise, hiding would be a problem.
Chapter 1405
Chapter 1405: Going home
Trantor: 549690339
There were also small hills in the center of the ind, but there were too many poisonous snakes and insects there. Unless a small team of more than ten people dared to live in a cave, it would be difficult to keep watch with only one or two people.
Moreover, every cave was a living target, and there was no way to escape if they were targeted.
Lou Zilings mission was to protect Jing Xi, so he chose the most conservative and safest ce.
He was not in the mood to discuss his intelligence with Jing Xi. He was just thinking about how to not expose their location.
However, the more Lou Ziling stayed silent, the more Jing Xi wanted to talk to him. She had always been a lively person, and it was not easy for her to meet someone who could talk. She shrank to his side and kept asking him in a low voice.
How old are you?
Where did you go to school? Youre not a military school student, are you?
Ive already eaten the jerky, what are you going to eat? Do you eat tree bark?
I kissed you when we were young. Dont you remember? he asked.
Im feeling a little cold, how about you hug me?
Lou Ziling didnt stop her, but neither did he answer her.
Before he came, he had done a lot of homework about Jing Xi. He knew that she was lively by nature, even a little arrogant.
Lou Ziling remembered the first time they had met when she was eight years old. He was confident that he could win Jing Xis favor.
As long as he could find the right way, Jing Xi would not be difficult to get along with.
Lou Ziling was not good at dealing with people, and he hated dealing with people. Fortunately, Jing Xi was a talkative person, and her mind could jump a lot. He didnt need to waste his effort to say anything to please her.
Moreover, she was too smart and could easily see through his lies.
The best way was to remain silent.
In the second half of the night, Jing Xi was very tired and she was not feeling well. She finally stopped talking and fell asleep on Lou Zilings body.
In the dark, Lou Ziling couldnt see Jing Xis face clearly, but she was sensitive enough to notice that her body was a little hot.
He immediately reached out to touch her forehead.
What he touched was a piece of delicate, smooth, and astonishingly hot air.
She had a fever!
Lou Ziling finally realized that Jing Xi was not joking when she said she was cold and wanted him to hug her. She was really cold!
Lou Ziling immediately hugged Jing Xi and patted her face.Jing Xi! Wake up! Jing Xi!
Jing Xi felt ufortable all over. She leaned on Lou Ziling and felt warm. She called him in a daze,Mom, my stomach hurts
Lou Ziling hugged her and felt helpless.
After much thought, he decided that Jing Xis life was more important. He didnt hesitate for long and quickly sent out a distress signal.
The helicopternded above them. Lou Ziling carried Jing Xi into the cabin.
Jing Xi felt like she had been asleep for a long time. When she opened her eyes, she found herself lying in her own room.
She rubbed her eyes and sat up abruptly. Where was the tropical forest? What about the ind?
Shangguan ning pushed the door open and ran to her daughter in surprise and joy when she saw that she was awake.Xixi, you scared me to death! Ive been sleeping for two days, and Im finally awake!
Her mothers arms were warm, soft, and fragrant. Jing Xi had loved them since she was a child.
She hugged Shangguan nings waist and said,Mom, Im not dreaming, right? I dont even know when I went home! I missed you so much!
Hearing her daughters hoarse voice, Shangguan ning burst into tears.I miss you too. I miss you every day, but your father wont let me go see you. Ive ignored him for a few days!
Shangguan ning had flown abroad to visit Jing Xi almost every week when Jing Xi had been attending training and studying. She couldnt stand it when she hadnt seen Jing Xi for almost two months.
When Shangguan ning saw her daughter in aa, she got both angry and worried, which was why Jing Yichen was in trouble.
Jing Xi snuggled in Shangguan nings arms and listened to her gentle voice. She finally felt that it was real. She chuckled and said, Its great to be home! But you cant me dad for this. I decided on the training myself. He sent a few people to protect me!
As a mother, she always cared for her child and couldnt bear to see her child fall sick. Shangguan ning loved Jing Xi very much. Jing Xi had never fallen sick since she was a child. Even when she was caught in the rain, she rarely caught a cold or a fever. She had always been in good health.
Are you stupid? Why didnt she hurry home when she was on her period? Besides, this is your first time here. How can you not have someone to take care of you?
Shangguan nings mother had passed away when she was young. When she had her period for the first time, she had been scared to death. No one had taught her those things at that time. Later, the helper at home had told her somemon sense and she had gradually gotten rid of her fear.
That was why she had taught Jing Xi a long time ago, just in case she would be scared when her period came one day.
However, she had never expected that her daughter would have her first period when she was training on the ind.
Shangguan ning hoped that she could stay by her daughters side during this special time, take care of her and give her the warmest motherly love.
This was a sign that a girl had grown up. But the one apanying her daughter was someone else, a boy. Shangguan ning felt both sorry and regretful.
Fortunately, Lou Ziling had sent out a distress signal at once, or Jing Xis fever would have been worse.
Shangguan ning nagged at her daughter and told her sternly that she was not allowed to be in the rain or cold water when she had her period in the future. She also told her daughter not to participate in any training.
Jing Xi didnt mind her nagging at all. She leaned on Shangguan ning and said with a smile,Alright, I know. Dont worry, mom!
As they were talking, Jing Yichen walked in. Seeing the mother and daughter in each others arms, he smiled and said,I told you Xixi was fine, but you didnt believe me. Now that shes awake, you can talk to me, right?
Shangguan ning ignored himpletely. She held Jing Xi in her arms andbed her hair.
Jing Xi blinked at Jing Yichen and said,Dad, mom just said she missed you! Did you hear what she said, so you came to see me?
Shangguan ning couldnt help but Pat her daughters back. Dont talk nonsense. He sent my daughter away. I dont miss him!
Jing Yichen came forward with a smile and took his wife and daughter into his arms. He said in a low voice, Its my fault this time. I neglected Xixis physical condition. I wont do it again! Its up to the two of you to decide if shes going to train or not, okay?
Are you serious? Shangguan ning turned to him immediately.
Seeing that she was finally willing to talk to him, Jing Yichen said with a smile,Really? when have I ever lied to you?
Alright, cancel all of Xixis dangerous activities. Shes a girl. Whats the point of learning those things?
Before Jing Yichen could say anything, Jing Xi said,No, mom, I dont agree!
Chapter 1406
Chapter 1406: I dont mind using marriage as a trade
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Yichenughed. He knew that Jing Xi would not agree to it.
Shangguan ning poked Jing Xis forehead with her finger and said with concern,Silly child, listen to me. Dont go to training. Just go to school. If you dont like it, you can y at home. If you feel bored, you can learn how to dance and draw!
I know how to dance and draw. Those are not difficult or challenging!
Jing Xi was still unwilling. She didnt have many friends to hang out with, and it was too boring to stay at home.
Mom, I have to go out and see the world. I used to think that I was very smart, but after meeting more people, I know that Im not good in all aspects. There are many people who are better than me. I have to learn more!
Her daughters words made so much sense that Shangguan ning couldnt refute them.
After all, she had agreed to let Jing Xi go abroad at the age of twelve to learn and train in various ces, so that she could broaden her horizons and make her grow better.
She couldnt stop Jing Xi from getting in touch with new things and hindering her progress just to keep her safe.
Shangguan ning hesitated for a while and finally said,Xixi, I wont stop you from going out to study and train, but you have to do what you can to the best of your ability. Dont force yourself. Dont let a situation like what happened two days ago happen again, okay?
Jing Xi hugged her happily and said in a clear voice,Alright! Ill definitely take good care of myself. If I feel unwell in the future, Ill call immediately and you and dad will take me home!
Shangguan ning also hugged Jing Xi with a smile and kissed her soft face. She asked her if she was feeling well, what she wanted to eat and if she wanted to drink water.
Mom, Im thirsty!
Yichen, get Xixi some hot water!
Shangguan ning didnt want to leave her daughters side, so she ordered her husband to do the work.
Jing Yichen left with a smile and soon came back with a ss of hot water. He handed it to Jing Xi.I thought your mother was going to ignore me for the rest of her life. You were unconscious for two days, but your mother didnt sleep for two days. She didnt let me sleep either. She even locked the bedroom door!
After Jing Xi was taken to the helicopter by Lou Ziling, the medical team had checked her out. She had a fever because of the rain and the drop in her immune system. She was not in any danger. Jing Yichen was worried about his daughter, but he was not too worried.
But Shangguan ning was so worried that she didnt sleep or eat. She spent most of her time with Jing Xi.
Jing Xi took the water and sipped it. She suddenly felt very happy.
She had a powerful father who sheltered her from the wind and rain and carefully nned her future for her.
She also had a gentle mother who loved her with all her heart and took care of her body. She was afraid that she would be wronged.
Jing Xiplimented her parents with a smile. Then she remembered her promise to Lou Ziling and said to Jing Yichen,Dad, Lou Ziling took care of me on the ind. Do you want to take care of the Lou family? she asked.
Youve already spoken up for him. Of course, I have to give you face and take care of him. This time, he has done a good job again. The Lou family might be handed over to Lou Ziling soon.
Jing Yichen usually didnt talk about the disputes of interests at home, because he didnt want his wife and daughter to be involved in those things.
In fact, Jing Yichen was not happy that Lou Mingyang had asked Lou Ziling to protect Jing Xi.
If he didnt believe in Lou Mingyangs character, Lou Ziling wouldnt have had the chance to get close to Jing Xi.
Fortunately, although Lou Ziling was unsociable and cold, his heart was the same as Lou Mingyang S. He did not take the opportunity to please Jing Xi. He kept an appropriate distance and did not have any ideas about Jing Xi like other families.
The next day after Jing Xi woke up, Jing Yichen and Jing Rui met Lou Mingyang and Lou Ziling in the meeting room on the top floor of Jingsheng enterprise.
Lou Ziling was wearing a white shirt, a ck custom-made suit, and a pair of high-quality ck leather shoes. Her hair wasbed neatly and she looked mature and steady.
Jing Yichen and Jing Rui had met Lou Mingyang before, but it was their first time meeting Lou Ziling.
Both Jing Yichen and Jing Rui had a good impression of Lou Ziling when they met for the first time. Both father and son had strong auras. Jing Yichen had been in a high position for a long time, and he had a good sense of stratagems. Naturally, he had a good temperament.
Jing Rui had been a killer for seven years, and the sharpness in his eyes and the coldness in his body were not something that ordinary people could stand.
Lou Ziling was a man of few words, but he was a man of good mind. He was respectful to Jing Yichen and Jing Rui, but not nervous at all.
On the other hand, Lou Mingyang was a little nervous and under great pressure. He was afraid that his son would leave a bad impression on the other party.
Lou Ziling didnt say anything else except for the first greeting to Jing Yichen and Jing Rui.
After the meeting ended and they returned to the Lou family, Lou Mingyang, who rarely criticized his son, couldnt help but say,Our family can only be considered a third-rate family at most. It is already a great honor for the father and son of family Jing to receive us at the same time. If we dont seize the opportunity, there will be countless families andpanies in A city and even other cities waiting to get an order from family Jing!
Its a rare asion and the atmosphere is great. You didnt say a word and kept silent. How could family Jing trust you with such a huge business? Will you die of exhaustion if you say a few more words?
Arent you in charge of the business? You wont hand it over to me.
Lou Ziling said slowly. There was no expression on her face and her tone was calm. It was obvious that she didnt care about the business of the Lou family.
Lou Mingyang felt that there seemed to be some problems with his sons education in the past. In the past, he never fought for anything. His brother, Lou mingzhen, took over all the business of the Lou family and did not let him interfere. He had always been low-key and patient, never letting his children fight for it.
Now that Lou Zilings personality was so indifferent and she didnt take the family business seriously, he, as her father, couldnt shirk his responsibility.
I am doing it now, but it will be your turn soon. You have to learn how to treat people well and get the support of family Jing!
Lou Mingyang rubbed his aching temple and said earnestly,Without the support of family Jing, you have to marry a wife from a big family and use the power of her family in order for the Lou family to continue to develop. I rmended you to family Jing because I want you to have a strong support so that you dont need to use your marriage as a bargaining chip.
Lou Zilings deep eyes were calm. Its the same no matter who I marry. If it can help the family develop better, you can arrange a suitable wife for me. I dont mind using marriage as a trade.

Chapter 1407: Competitors
Trantor: 549690339
To Lou Ziling, there was no difference between women. However, he was a loner and didnt like to talk or socialize. It would be best if he could find a woman who also liked silence and didnt meddle.
Marriage was the highest guarantee and bargaining chip for benefits among the big families in A city. Otherwise, there would not be so many people staring at Jing Xi eagerly, hoping that she would grow up and be one of their own.
However, Jing Xi was only 14 years old this year. She was still a child who had not grown up. Even a girls first period had juste. Lou Ziling would not have any ideas about her. It would be too beastly.
There were many women of the right age to get married in city A, and there was nock of daughters from big families. Marriage would be a win-win situation.
Youre really willing to marry a girl without feelings?
Lou Mingyang was a little worried. His son had been different from others since he was young. He almost didnt have a friend. He hoped that in the future, his son could find a girl he loved and live a happy life instead of being alone.
Im willing,Lou Ziling replied in a calm and crisp voice.
Ziling, I took back the power of the family from your uncle and have been working hard to restore the prosperity of the family. Its so that you and your sister wont be mistreated, so that you two can stand up straight in the future and live the life you want.
Lou Mingyang looked at his tall and handsome son and felt a little gratified.Im d that youre willing to marry a strange woman. Youre finally not like when you were young, where you let your Temper Run wild!
However, marriage is a big deal. You should think about it again. Our main goal is to get the support of family Jing. With their support, you can marry anyone you want, not ady from a rich family.
You have done a good job on the ind. Jing Yichen even sent me an official email to express his gratitude to you, saying that I have taught a good son. It seems that Jing Xi has put in a good word for you in front of Jing Yichen!
Lou Mingyang was excited. Jing Yichen had always been a legendary figure. It was not easy to get his praise and thanks.
In the future, get closer to the little girl. Youve saved her twice, so it can be considered a friendship that has cost you your life. Shes still too young to get married. Just treat her as a sister and take care of her.
It wasnt that Lou Mingyang didnt want to hit on Jing Xi. Lou Ziling and Jing Xi were only seven years apart. Jing Xi was fourteen years old this year. What was the harm in waiting for her for eight to ten years?
He did not dare to have any ideas about Jing Xi.
The more she got to know Jing Yichen, the more she knew how scary he was. Family Jing was very powerful and if family Lou had any evil intentions, Jing Yichen would know about it soon.
At that time, all their efforts would be in vain.
The best way was to do things honestly and be honest.
This was the rule of survival that Lou Mingyang had always believed in.
The Lou family was not the only one who was concerned about Jing Xi. Everyone in A city who knew of her existence was trying to get close to her.
Fourteen years old wasnt exactly young. There were many fourteen or fifteen-year-old middle school students who were in love.
This age was the most ignorant period, and also the period of the first awakening of love.
At this age, it was easy for boys and girls to fall in love with each other, and this kind of love was free of any impurities.
It was said that the only daughter of family Jing liked handsome boys. He was a lively boy and liked to y pranks, but he was kind and easy to get along with.
The second-ranked family in A city was still the Ji family.
Ji Bo, the head of the family, had been maintaining a good rtionship with Jing Yichen in recent years. They were bothpetitors and partners.
Ji Bo had a short marriage and had been single for a long time. He had to marry a girl from a well-off family under the pressure of his parents.
Therefore, Ji Bo was already over 50 years old, while his son, Ji moxuan, was only 16 years old.
Since the day Jing Xi was born, Ji Bo had mentioned to Jing Yichen countless times that he wanted Jing Xi to marry into family Ji.
Ji Bo had only loved Shangguan ning in his life. He had refused to get married because he could not find anyone better than Shangguan ning.
The older Jing Xi grew, the more she looked like Shangguan ning. Ji Bo had not been able to marry the one he loved, but he hoped that at least his son could marry Shangguan nings daughter.
He had only seen Jing Xi a few times, but Ji Bo had already regarded her as his daughter.
In the whole of A city, Ji Bo believed that his son was the only one who was worthy of Jing Xi.
Not only was Ji moxuan outstanding in appearance, but he was also intelligent. He did not have any of the habits of a hedonistic son. He could endure hardship and also enjoy it. He was a very good match for Jing Xi.
Ji Bo couldnt figure out why Jing Yichen had been unwilling to let go of the marriage.
Was it because he used to like Shangguan ning?
But now that so many years had passed, the love that should have been there had long disappeared, leaving only regret that no one could speak of.
Ji moxuan returned home afterpleting his physical training. As usual, his mother was not at home and had gone to the beauty salon for a detailed maintenance. To his surprise, his father, who was always busy, was sitting in the living room, watching the news on hisptop.
Dad, why dont you go to the study? When my mom gets home and sees you sitting here, shell definitely ask you to do a beauty appraisal!
Ive been waiting for you toe back,
Ji Bo smiled deeply when he saw his son. He closed his notebook and patted the sofa beside him.Come over and sit.
Is there something?
Ji moxuan sat next to Ji Bo. Although he looked confused, he already knew what Ji Bo was going to say.
You dont have a girlfriend, do you?
No, Im so busy now that I dont even have time to sleep. How can I have time to date? Besides, didnt you say that I cant have a girlfriend without your consent?
Ji moxuanughed and said,father, youre not going to mention Jing Xi again, are you? How old are we? can you not be so anxious?
In the past two years, Ji Bo had told Ji moxuan about Jing Xi at least a dozen times. Ji moxuans ears were getting calluses from hearing it.
As long as Ji Bo was waiting for him in the living room with a notebook, he must be talking about Jing Xi.
Ji moxuan had yet to meet Jing Xi, but he had already heard of her name.
What do you know? its because youre both still young that you have to hurry up and settle things. Otherwise, you wont have a chance when she grows up!
Dad, I dont even know if shes t or round, whats there to order! She is the little princess of family Jing, we have to treat her well after she is married. I dont want an ancestor!
Ji moxuan kept shaking his head. He was a mature man and had been involved in manypany affairs with Ji Bo. He was very opinionated.

What ancestor? Jing Xi is well-educated and has a very lively personality. She doesnt have the arrogance of a youngdy at all! Shes also very pretty, Ive never seen a girl more outstanding than her!
Hearing that his son disliked Jing Xi, Ji Bo was displeased.
It would be a huge loss if he couldnt marry such a good girl!
He had a different purpose from the Lou family. The Lou family was not interested in Jing Xis appearance or character, but the power of the Jing family behind her. Ji Bo was powerful and family Ji was the second most powerful family in A city, so they didnt need the support of the Jing family.
Ji Bo had taken a fancy to Jing Xi only because of her, and it had nothing to do with her family name.
Ill find a time for you to meet Jing Xi. Youre not allowed to sneak away this time!
Ji Bo thought that his son would definitely fall in love with Jing Xi when he saw her.
Previously, he had secretly arranged for Ji moxuan to meet Jing Xi. In the end, when Jing Xi arrived, Ji moxuan had run away!
Aiya, dad, whats there to see? I know she must be very beautiful. Ive met her parents. No matter how ugly the child of such parents is, it cant be ugly!
Ji moxuan had no interest in meeting girls. He felt that those girls were basically the same. They were spoiled by their families and were noisy or pretentious. Dealing with these girls gave him a headache.
If we are really fated, I will definitely be able to meet her. I am only 16, you dont have to be so anxious to arrange a blind date for me, right?
Nonsense, what blind date? Ji Boughed in anger. Im just asking you to meet a girl and make friends with her. Do you think that the girls of family Jing are so casual? I dont even know if I can get Jing Xi toe out! Jing Yichen treats his daughter like a treasure. If he knew about your attitude, he would never allow Jing Xi to marry into our family!
The speaker did not mean it, but the listener paid attention.
Ji moxuan caught the main point of Ji Bos words in an instant. As long as his attitude was not good and he showed that he did not like Jing Xi, the Jing family would take the initiative to avoid him.
There would be no more follow-up to the matter between him and Jing Xi.
What a good idea!
Alright, Ill wait for your arrangements. I wont run away this time. I have to meet the legendary little princess!
Ji moxuan agreed, but in his heart, he was thinking about how to protect his image and make Jing Xi hate him.
Ji Bo, on the other hand, was very happy. He felt that Jing Xi was loved by everyone, and there was no reason for his son not to like her.
However, when he started to arrange for Ji moxuan and Jing Xi to meet, it was very difficult.
Jing Yichen didnt allow the two children to meet each other. He had the same reason every time. Jing Xi was still too young.
Ji Bo had been looking for an opportunity for the past two months. Unfortunately, Jing Xis schedule was strictly confidential, and he couldnt even let his son have a chance encounter with her.
Ji Bo was a little anxious. As Jing Xi grew older, her appearance and temperament would be more and more outstanding. Coupled with her extremely prominent family background, there would be more and more suitors.
If she fell for another boy first, Ji moxuan would lose all his advantages.
In fact, Ji Bo was overthinking. Jing Xi had fallen for hundreds of handsome men, but she liked them quickly and disliked them even faster.
She had fallen in love with horse riding for the past two months. She would go to the horse track every day and take a walk. She had taken a fancy to a handsome man who also rode horses often.
The handsome guys name was yang nuo. He wasnt from A city, but his aunt was married in A city, so he came here to y for a while.
He was a mixed-blood man with both Eastern and Western beauty. He was handsome and upright. When he sat on the horse in his riding suit, he was extremely handsome and had a noble temperament.
Jing Xi loved to ride beside him. Yang nuo did not know Jing Xis identity and only thought of her as an ordinary little girl. He often gave her advice and told her to be careful.
If they were still young, Jing Xi might have said,I like you and want to marry you.
However, now that she had grown up, she already knew that some words couldnt be said casually.
When she wasnt smiling, she looked a little cold. Yang nuo had always maintained an appropriate distance from her, as if he was afraid of offending her.
Other than the two of them, there would be other people at the racecourse, including Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling had saved Jing Xi twice, and both times were coincidences. Shangguan ning thought that maybe he was born with good luck, so she persuaded Jing Yichen to let Lou Ziling protect Jing Xi.
Jing Yichen agreed, but all the bodyguards that were supposed to be Jing Xis were still there. Lou Ziling was only there to help.
The Lou family was the business partner of the Jing family and Lou Ziling was going to inherit the position of the head of the Lou family in the future. Jing Yichen couldnt really use him as a bodyguard. It would be disrespectful to the Lou family and it would do Jing Xi no good.
Lou Ziling didnte here every day. Even if he did, he would look at Jing Xi from a distance and rarely get close to her, unless Jing Xi took the initiative to approach him.
For example, Yingluo
Lou Ziling, Im thirsty!
Lou Zilings expression was calm. She threw the bottle of water in her hand over.
Jing Xi took it, took two sips, closed the lid, and threw it back.
After riding the horse for a while, Jing Xi said a few words to yang nuo and stopped in satisfaction.
Yang nuo had already left. Jing Xi stopped by Lou Zilings side and looked at him riding the horse. She asked curiously,Is there anything you dont know?
She had just started learning how to ride a horse. Although two months was not bad, she was still far from Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling didnt answer Jing Xis question. He didnt even want to answer such a boring question.
Jing Xi had known him for a while and knew that he was almost mute. People always said that her father, Jing Yichen, was a man of few words. Butpared with Lou Ziling, Jing Yichen was more normal.
At least when Jing Yichen was at home, he would respond to him whenever he talked to him.
Lou Ziling, on the other hand, acted as if she had not heard anything.
However, the more Jing Xi met someone who didnt like to talk, the more she liked to talk to them.
When did you learn to ride a horse? You look so professional. Have you participated in apetition before? Did you get first ce?
Why is your horse so tall and strong, while mine is so small?
Why dont we switch?
Jing Xi was riding next to Lou Ziling, but Lou Ziling was not only taller than her, but his horse was also taller than her.
Lou Ziling didnt say anything, so Jing Xi climbed up to his horse.
You get down, Ill try yours. Ive never ridden such a strong one before!
Chapter 1409
Chapter 1409: Getting scolded
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xis pony was very obedient and stood still. Unfortunately, Lou Zilings horse was very fierce and did not let her ride it.
Lou Ziling didnt have any intention to give in to her. She sat on the horse and looked at her indifferently, letting her make a fool of herself.
Jing Xi was a little annoyed by his indifferent gaze and jumped over to him without hesitation.
The fierce horse neighed and galloped out.
Lou Ziling grabbed Jing Xi, who was on the verge of copsing, and lifted her onto his horse with a little force.
Jing Xi was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat. She clutched Lou Zilings clothes tightly, and her face turned pale.
If she fell off the horse, she might break her leg!
Lou Ziling quickly reined in the horse and got off with Jing Xi in her arms. She stared at her coldly and said,Youre looking to die?
His tone was too harsh, and Jing Xi could not help but freeze.
No one had ever dared to talk to her like that in her entire life.
It was already a close call just now. Her heart was still beating fast and her hands and feet were cold. After being yelled at by Lou Ziling, her eyes turned red.
Jing Xi had wanted to apologize to Lou Ziling for almost getting him into trouble.
But now, she bit her lip and red at him angrily, not wanting to say anything.
Lou Ziling only realized that her tone was inappropriate after she finished shouting. But it was too dangerous just now. Falling off the horse waspletely different from thest time Jing Xi had a cold and fever. She might be disabled for life!
He couldnt suppress his anger at all.
He had always been a loner and didnt like to get close to others. He didnt like to talk, but now he was so angry that he wanted to curse!
How are you going to live the rest of your life if you break your leg? Are you going to sit in a wheelchair?
Why are you staring at me? did I say something wrong? If it wasnt for my quick hands, you would have fallen down! Not only will you fall, but youll also be stepped on by the horse!
Youre not allowed to ride a horse in the future!
Jing Xis eyes were filled with tears. Her voice was still as tender as a little girl s, but her tone was extremely aggrieved.I have you! I dared to jump on the horse because I thought you could save me even if something happened!
She had unconsciously treated Lou Ziling as a form of protection.
Lou Ziling was stunned. The words she wanted to reprimand her couldnte out of her mouth.
After Jing Xi finished speaking, she walked away in a Huff. She turned her back to Lou Ziling and refused to let him see her face. However, Lou Ziling knew that she was crying.
Lou Ziling was still standing there in silence until Jing Xis figure disappeared.
His back was wet and cold. Jing Xi had almost fallen off the horse just now, and he was also covered in cold sweat.
Jing Xi left the horse track and went to her personal dressing room to change. When she came out again, her expression had returned to normal. Other than her slightly red eyes, there was nothing unusual about her.
She didnt walk on the road for a while, look at the scenery, or take a stroll like she usually did. Instead, she got into the car and asked the driver to take her home.
The driver didnt suspect anything. He thought that Jing Xi was tired and didnt want to walk anymore. He was happy that he could be of use.
The bodyguard who had been following Jing Xi knew about the small ident that had happened on the horse. He had also heard Lou Zilings scolding.
He had been Jing Xis bodyguard since she was one year old. He would follow her most of the time. He had never seen anyone like Lou Ziling, who scolded her without caring about anything.
Lou Ziling wasnt that kind of person in the past. He didnt even respond to people, let alone scold them. He wouldnt even reply with a single word.
But today, he had flipped out.
The bodyguard didnt think it was a bad thing. At least it proved that Lou Ziling cared about Jing Xi. No matter what his purpose was, as long as he was willing to protect Jing Xi, it would be for the best.
Jing Yichen had told him to pay more attention to Lou Zilings movements in case Jing Xi was fooled. It seemed that Lou Ziling had no intention of lying to Jing Xi.
Otherwise, she could have said a few more good words to Jing Xi when she had just saved her. The little girl would have been grateful and touched, and the Lou family would have left a good impression on her again.
When they got home, Jing Xi threw herself into Shangguan nings arms as if nothing had happened. She talked andughed with her and praised yang nuo for being handsome and gentlemanly. She didnt mention a word about Lou Ziling, nor did she mention that Lou Ziling had shouted at her.
Shangguan ning, on the other hand, didnt care about yang nuo. She was very concerned about Lou Ziling.Lou Ziling didnt go? He promised your father to protect you. I saw him oncest month. Hes a good guy. He doesnt talk much and doesnt have any intention of taking credit. Didnt you like him when you were young? You dont like it anymore?
I dont like it!
Jing Xi pouted at Shangguan ning. She thought for a moment and said, Hes too ugly!
Shangguan ning burst intoughter.No way. When your brother came backst time, he said that Lou Ziling will be the pride of the Lou family. Your brother has high standards. He said that Lou Ziling is not bad. He is indeed very good-looking.
Shangguan ning also thought that Lou Ziling was pretty, but her daughters heart was not set yet, so it was possible that her beauty was not the same.
She didnt force Jing Xi to ask if Lou Ziling was okay. She just told her to be careful on the horse and said nothing more.
The next day, Jing Xi went to the horse track as usual. She changed into her riding suit and ran around the track.
Yang nuo arrived very quickly, but for the first time, Jing Xi did not have the desire to run away with him.
Looking at yang nuo, he didnt seem very handsome. His eyes were still dark blue, which didnt suit Jing Xis taste. She still preferred ck eyes.
The racecourse was veryrge. Jing Xi rode slowly on her horse. The handsome man had lost his handsomeness overnight, and she was unhappy.
She scanned the entire horse track but did not see Lou Ziling. She was furious. This person is so petty. Hes noting!
She was the one who was scolded, but Lou Ziling was angry. It was unreasonable!
Jing Xi got off the horse and let it eat the grass. Shey on the grass with her eyes closed and cursed,
Ugly freak, youre so stingy!
Hes so fierce, he definitely wont be able to get a wife in the future!
Hmph, I wont talk to you anymore!
Its so ugly
As she mumbled to herself, a voice suddenly came from above her,Who are you scolding?
Jing Xi opened her eyes and saw Lou Zilings handsome face.
Im scolding you,she admitted without hesitation.
Lou Ziling probably didnt expect that someone would admit that he was cursing her behind her back so directly. He was obviously stunned for a while before he said indifferently,Come here.
Im not going over, Jing Xi said, still lying down.Otherwise, youre going to say Im looking for death again.
Lou Ziling sighed helplessly.I won t. As long as youre obedient.
His tone was like he was coaxing a child. Jing Xi jumped up from the ground in excitement. Im not a child!
Chapter 1410
Chapter 1410: New teacher
Trantor: 549690339
The girl in front of him was dressed in a handsome riding suit and ck long boots, which made her legs look straight and slender. Her long hair was tied up, revealing a delicate face, and she looked more mature than usual.
At the age of fourteen, it was the time for her to grow taller. Before the new year, she was less than 1.6 meters tall. Now, at the end of spring and the beginning of summer, she was already 1.6 meters tall.
Her expression was serious and stern, and she really did not look like a child anymore.
Lou Ziling was not good at coaxing people. He had never coaxed anyone before. He had never met anyone who needed his help.
He was a proud and aloof person, but in front of Jing Xi, he had put down all his pride and was trying his best to make her happy.
I didnt say youre a child. Ive seen what youre capable of.
Lou Ziling only said one sentence and then stopped. He felt that praising Jing Xi was a bit ttering.
He disdained to do so.
He got on his horse and reached out to Jing Xi.Get on!
Jing Xi was still angry. Seeing that Lou Ziling was fine, she asked her to go up. She turned her head away from Lou Ziling and sat on the grass.I won t!
Perhaps, she had unknowingly gotten used to the world revolving around her. Her fathers status was too high, and she was the only little princess in the family. No matter who saw her, they would be polite and warm.
Only Lou Ziling, who had been begging her to let Jing Yichen take over the Lou family, was so arrogant that he ignored her.
If it were anyone else, Jing Xi would have maintained her good manners and upbringing. However, Lou Ziling had seen her most embarrassing and embarrassing thing. She had nothing to hide.
Lou Ziling got off the horse, walked to Jing Xi, and picked her up.
Jing Xi was shocked and hit him hard.What are you doing? Dont touch me, let me go!
Men and women shouldnt be so close, how could they always hug each other!
She had no choice when she was on the ind, but she was in good health now!
Lou Ziling didnt care about her little fists. He put Jing Xi on the horse and sat on it himself.
He held her slender waist with one hand and held the reins with the other. He whispered in Jing Xis ear,Sit tight, Ill teach you.
No, no! Youre too close to me! Jing Xi felt ufortable all over.
Lou Zilings chest was pressed against Jing Xis back, and his hand was on her waist. They were so intimate that Jing Xis face was a little red.
Dont move, youre going to fall down again!
Jing Xi was struggling, but Lou Zilings arms suddenly tightened, not letting her move.
Jing Xi couldnt move. She found that she was even closer to Lou Ziling.
Didnt you forbid me from riding a horse?she asked in a soft voice.
When have you ever heard me speak?
Lou Ziling urged her horse forward, her voice still emotionless.Rather than letting you keep thinking about this horse, why dont I take you to try it once? in the future, if you want to ride it again, there wont be any danger.
Did he really be a knights protector?
It felt weird. She didnt look like Lou Ziling anymore!
Jing Xi couldnt help but turn around. Lou Zilings handsome face was right in front of her. He was looking straight ahead, his dark eyes emotionless.
She had met Lou Ziling so many times, but she had never really looked at him. She only remembered that his skin was so good that it made girls jealous.
He was so handsome that Jing Rui was not wrong to say that he was the face of the Lou family.
His parents and sister werent ugly, but they werent particrly good-looking either. However, he had all the good points of his parents. His eyes were deep, his nose was straight, and even his lips were beautiful.
Look at the road!
Lou Zilings cold voice startled Jing Xi. She turned her head back and looked at the road as if nothing had happened.
Lou Ziling saw that she was sitting down and immediately sped up. She took Jing Xi into the horse training field and galloped over obstacles, doing all kinds of difficult moves.
The stallion was carrying two people on its back, but its speed was still amazing. It was tall and strong,pletely different from Jing Xis pony. It seemed to enjoy the moment of gallop, neighing from time to time, as if it was grateful for having a Bo Le who understood it.
Jing Xi couldnt care less about the improper touch between men and women. She wanted Lou Ziling to hold her a little tighter so that she wouldnt be thrown out identally!
She was both nervous and excited, thinking that this was what riding a horse was like!
She screamed from time to time, shouting slow down,hurry up, and then shouting the name of the person behind her,Lou Ziling!
Lou Ziling saw that she was as happy as a child and a faint smile appeared on her face. She was just a child!
After ap, Lou Ziling and Jing Xi stopped to rest.
Jing Xis little face was red, and the excitement on her face was obvious. She was not stingy with her praise,Lou Ziling, you are so powerful! You must have participated in apetition before and won the championship! The teacher who taught me how to ride a horse is far worse than you!
In fact, it was not that her teacher was not good enough. It was just that her teacher could not ride a horse with Jing Xi in his arms like Lou Ziling. Moreover, her teacher knew Jing Xis identity and did not dare to let her take the risk of riding a fierce horse.
The girls voice was crisp and sweet. Her body was soft and she had a unique fragrance. Lou Ziling had grown up and this was the first time she felt the difference between a man and a woman.
No, the person in his arms could not be considered a woman. It was just a little girl.
But even so, she was still showing him her amazing beauty at all times.
The part of her neck that was exposed was fair and smooth, like an egg without its shell. It was tender and lustrous, which was obviously different from his skin.
Her ears were beautiful and cute, with a tinge of red in the White, and they looked delicious.
Lou Ziling closed his eyes. When he opened them again, he was looking forward.
At noon, Jing Xi changed out of her riding suit and into her own clothes. She rushed to Lou Ziling and asked him,Will you being tomorrow?
Her bright eyes were full of hope. Lou Ziling looked at her and realized that she couldnt say Im noting.
Yes,e.
She was his main target at the moment. He had spent so much effort to apany her for so long. Wasnt it all because he was waiting for the day she needed him?
Jing Xi seemed to be unaware of it. She jumped up happily and pped her hands. Thats great! I have a new teacher!
When they got home in the afternoon, Jing Xi described the horse-riding scene vividly to Shangguan ning, which made Shangguan ningugh.
She touched her daughters head and felt a little emotional. The little girl was still a child. She was always gloomy and sunny. Yesterday, she had said that Lou Ziling was ugly. Today, she had said that he was handsome when he rode a horse.
Seeing that his wife and daughter were so happy, Jing Yichen called his son.
So, in the afternoon, family Lou received a huge order from family Jing.
Chapter 1411
Chapter 1411: Lou Zilings self-esteem
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling followed Lou Mingyang to sign the contract at Jingsheng enterprise.
Lou Mingyang went to thepany excitedly and began to arrange the next strategic deployment to expand the production scale.
Lou Ziling went home alone. He looked at the contract in front of him and sat there for the whole night.
He felt a sense of shame that he had never felt before.
He was humiliated for himself.
He was a man, and he did notck wisdom and ability. Why couldnt he use his own efforts to exchange for the glory of the family?
Why would he make use of a 14-year-old girl?
No, this was not the life he wanted!
He didnt want to rely on Jing Xi to get the Jing familys resources. He didnt want to live the rest of his life as a useless person.
Lou Mingyang had been busy the whole night. When he got home in the morning, he found his son sitting in the study with bloodshot eyes.
You didnt sleep the whole night? he was a little surprised.
Lou Ziling did not say anything, but his appearance was obvious. He had not changed out of the suit he wore to see Jing Rui the day before, and his clothes were wrinkled because he had been sitting for a long time.
Why arent you sleeping? Your mom and sister didnt even care about you!
Lou Mingyang had wronged his wife and daughter. They didnt know that Lou Ziling had returned home. They thought that he had gone to thepany with Lou Mingyang!
Although Lou Mingyang had been busy the whole night, he was in good spirits because of the huge order. He patted his sons shoulder and said,Youve been staring at the contract all night, right? Its all thanks to you, otherwise the Jing family wouldnt have signed the contract with us so quickly. You must have done well in front of Jing Xi and touched the little girl.
Dont just sit here. Go take a shower and change your clothes. After breakfast, go to the horse track and continue to teach the little girl how to ride a horse. We cant ck off just because we got an order!
Dad, Im not going.
Lou Zilings voice was a little hoarse, but it was firm.
Lou Mingyang was stunned,why not? Did the little girl give you a hard time? Did I make you angry?
Lou Ziling shook her head.No. Shes fine.
Not only did she not make him angry, but she also praised him from the bottom of her heart and called him teacher.
Instead, he was the one reprimanding her.
Shes fine, why arent you going? Im just teaching her how to ride a horse. Didnt you win a championship in an equestrianpetition when you were overseas? The coach that Jing Yichen hired for her is also very good. I heard that he has won many Championships. If you dont go, you will lose all the opportunities!
Lou Mingyang was a little anxious. He didnt know what his son was up to. He had been with Jing Xi for so long. Why did he suddenly give up?
He had met Jing Xi and talked to her before. She was an easy girl to get along with.
His son was so cold and quiet that even he, as his father, couldnt stand it sometimes. But Jing Xi had praised him in front of Jing Yichen several times. This showed that the little girl was really a good person!
Ziling, now is not the time for you to be stubborn. This is a rare opportunity and we must seize it. As long as we can build a long-term cooperation with family Jing and have trust with them, it will be easy for us to cooperate with other people in the future. Youll bete if you dont leave now. You cant let the youngdy wait for you!
Im not going. Tell the Jing family that I wont go there again. Ill stop protecting Jing Xi and I wont teach her how to ride anymore.
Lou Zilings expression was cold and calm. She was not joking at all.
No matter how good Lou Mingyangs temper was, he was going crazy because of his son!
He was not raising a son, he was raising an ancestor! He was even more arrogant than the Emperor. Others couldnt get close to Jing Xi even after using all kinds of means, but he was even disdainful!
He seriously suspected that he had taught his son the wrong way in the past!
Lou Mingyang was so angry that he wanted to beat his son up, but he couldnt bear to do it. He could only say angrily,If you dont want to go, you have to give me a reason, right? Do you think its easy for me to get you a chance to protect Jing Xi? The Jing family was short of bodyguards? City A iscking a horse-riding coach?
Lou Ziling was silent for a long time before she said,I dont want to use her.
Use?
Lou Mingyang was so angry with his son that he fell backwards!
Just listen to what youre saying! When have we ever used Jing Xi? Werepeting fair and square! Its Jing Yichens order to protect Jing Xi
Lou Ziling interrupted her father and said coldly,Thats not glorious either! I dont need to rely on an underaged girl to seek benefits. Didnt you teach me before to rely on myself for everything? Without Jing Xi, I can still get the support of the Jing family and make thepany develop well!
Lou Mingyangs voice also gradually became cold and even a little sharp.Right! Of course you can do it! However, that will take a long time. Jing Xi is the most effective and fastest shortcut to sess! Why not take the shortcut? Did we hurt Jing Xi? There isnt any!
Its better not to take such a shortcut!
Ziling, you have too much self-esteem! Theres no need for that at this stage!
No, if I dont have any self-esteem, it can only mean that your education is a failure!
Lou Mingyang was so angry that he almost died. Should he hate himself for teaching his son too much? He had taught his son to have self-respect and not to belittle himself, but apanying Jing Xi would not lower his status!
He even wanted to be a bodyguard himself, but Jing Yichen would never agree to it.
Shes just a little girl, innocent and not scheming. Youre just ying with her. Is that hard?
Its precisely because shes a little girl that I cant take advantage of her naivety!
Lou Ziling had thought about it for the whole night and made up her mind. Her stance was firm and clear.
Dad, let me try. If I dont try, how do you know that I cant expand the family? Family Jing didnt rely on marriage or women to develop. If I work hard on my own, the progress might be slower, but our Foundation will be more stable and we will have more confidence! Youve taught me so much, so you have to let me put it into practice!
Lou Mingyang was stunned.
He had never thought that this would be the result.
He looked at his tall and handsome son, at his determined and confident appearance, and an unparalleled pride slowly welled up in the depths of his heart.
Yes, his son was right. If he did not have such a strong self-esteem and was willing to please a little girl, it could only prove that the education he had given his son for twenty-one years was a failure!
The study room was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
Lou Mingyang let out a long sigh of relief.Alright, I wont go! Ill exin to Jing Yichen, you go ahead! Dad is old, hes more than capable of preserving, but hes far from as progressive as you! Ziling, our Lou family will be relying on you in the future!

Chapter 1412: Because herst name is Jing
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi got ready early in the morning. She put on the new pink dress that Shangguan ning had bought for her and was ready to go out.
Hey, Xixi, are you going to meet some handsome guy by dressing up so beautifully?
Shangguan ning teased her daughter. She would only dress up when she saw a handsome man. She didnt pay much attention to her image, unlike Jing Yichen and Jing Rui who were always picky.
Yeah, meet a handsome guy! Mom, am I pretty? Will the handsome boy think Im not good-looking?
Jing Xis face was full of youth and sunshine, which was unique to a little girl. She was smiling and her face was rosy. She was more lively than usual.
My daughter is the most beautiful girl in the world. If anyone thinks youre not pretty, you can rmend them to family MUs Hospital for an ophthalmologist!
Jing Xi smiled and kissed Shangguan ning.This is indeed my biological mother! My mom is so pretty, so of course Im pretty too!
Shangguan ningughed too.Its too early to wear this dress. Its still a little cold. Lets put on a coat.
Shangguan ning would never dampen her daughters enthusiasm in pursuing handsome men. Jing Xi would lose interest in them in a few days anyway. She put a white coat over Jing Xi, kissed her daughters forehead and watched her walk away in her little leather boots. Then she turned back to Jing Yichen and said,
The handsome guy Xixi is talking about, is he Lou Ziling?
Jing Yichen put on his coat and said with a smile,Who else could it be? Xixi wasnt even this friendly to yang nuo before. It seems like she thinks Lou Ziling is more handsome than yang nuo.
Its rare to see our daughter so happy. Let her be. Its good to have someone to y with her. Lou Ziling looks calm and steady. She doesnt look like someone who would mess around.
Shangguan ning knew very well why Lou Ziling was with Jing Xi. It was understandable that the Lou family wanted to cooperate with the Jing family, as long as he didnt want to hurt Jing Xi.
She believed in her husbands vision and ability. Since he had agreed to let Lou Ziling stay with Jing Xi for so long, it meant that Lou Zilings character was trustworthy.
However, Jing Yichen got a call from Lou Mingyang not long after they finished talking about Lou Ziling.
After hanging up the phone, Jing Yichen smiled at Shangguan ning helplessly.This is great. Lou Ziling doesnt want to y with Xixi anymore!
Why? Shangguan ning asked in surprise.
Lou Mingyang didnt say it clearly, but I guess Lou Ziling doesnt want to take advantage of Xixi. He has a backbone!
Shangguan ningughed.He doesnt want to y with our daughter anymore and you still praise him? Xixi finally has a friend that she can talk to. She will be sad when she finds out that Lou Ziling is not going to y with her anymore.
You are Jing Yichens daughter. Why would you need a friend?
Jing Yichen smiled, but he didnt think that it was a bad thing.At least Xixi will know that there are no permanent friends. She will need to distinguish between her real friends and those who want to use her in the future.
Jing Xi was sent to the racecourse by the driver. Without changing into her riding clothes, she ran into the racecourse to look for Lou Ziling, but she could not find him.
She blinked her eyes in confusion,are wete again? Why am I always the one waiting for him? Youre so ungentlemanly!
Jing Xis bodyguard trotted to her side and whispered,Miss, Madam just called. She said that Lou Ziling wont being. She asked me to inform you.
Jing Xis eyes widened,noting? Why did you do that?
Madam didnt say the reason.
Give me the phone, Ill ask!
Jing Xi picked up her cell phone and called Shangguan ning. She sounded a little sad.Mom, whats going on? why did that Lou guy suddenly decide not toe? He promised me yesterday that he woulde today!
He had already promised to teach her how to ride a horse in the future. Why did he change his mind when he was her teacher?
Shangguan ningforted her daughter in a gentle voice.Yesterday, your father gave the Lou family a big order. Maybe Lou Ziling thought that the order was not glorious enough and won it by riding with you. He probably wanted to win the order with his own ability.
What kind of reason is that?
Jing Xi could not ept such an exnation!
Shouldnt Jing Yichen give the order to family Lou when they were close?
Did she have to give it to someone else before Lou Ziling would continue to apany her?
Didnt he get close to her, protect her, and stay with her for the sake of the order?
Did Lou Ziling really think that she didnt know anything?
She knew everything, but she had never said it out loud!
If her family name was not Jing, if she was not Jing Yichens daughter, if she was not Jing Ruis sister, if she had not had an unparalleled wealth behind her, Lou Ziling would not have even looked at her. Would he be willing to teach her how to ride a horse?
It wouldn t.
Mom, we have money. We can bring wealth to the Lou family. Is it wrong?
Jing Xis eyes were red. She felt very ufortable, as if something was blocking her heart. She couldnt vent it, nor could she describe it.
Shangguan ning felt bad when she heard her daughters tone. She said immediately,Of course were not in the wrong! Xixi, dont be sad. Its a good thing that Lou Ziling doesnt want to use you to gain benefits!
Yes, this is a good thing.
Jing Xis voice was muffled, and she didnt sound like a fourteen-year-old girl at all.I have nothing else to attract people other than benefits. I was too na?ve to think that Lou Ziling would always be my friend after our family and the Lou family had deep cooperation!
Dont let your thoughts run wild, Xixi. Youre outstanding enough yourself! Believe in mommy! When your father married me, I had nothing. He believed me even when everyone misunderstood me. In the future, youll meet the right person, and youll have a good friend!
Mom, theres only one man like my dad in the world. Ive liked so many people, but they didnt like me. They liked my fathers money.
Jing Xis beautiful eyes had lost the bright light of the morning. She was a little sad.
In the past 14 years, she had been proud of her family name and that she came from the No. 1 wealthy family. Today, she realized that it was not always better to be rich.
Mom, I want to go home. Only you two truly love me. I wont ride anymore. Ill go home to apany you, okay?
Silly girl, your father, brother, and I will always love you. Even if youre not by my side, I will still love you. I dont need yourpany. You have your own path to walk.
Shangguan ning really wanted to hold her daughter. Jing Xi had never been so vulnerable. She was always smiling and seemed to care about nothing. But in fact, she was very smart and could see through many things. She just didnt know how to say it.
Xixi, your father has introduced a friend to you. You can meet him!

Chapter 1413: New friend, Ji moxuan
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi soon saw the friend that Shangguan ning had been talking about.
He must have rushed here in a hurry. He was not wearing a riding suit, but a ck-and-white checkered casual suit. Even in a hurry, it did not look messy. His short hair was clean and neat, and his eyes were clear. As he walked towards her, he showed the heroic bearing and bearing of a noble son from an aristocratic family.
Hello, Im ji moxuan!
Ji moxuan reached out his hand to Jing Xi. The smile on his face was just right. It was neither too ostentatious nor cold.
Youre Jing Xi? Its an honor to meet you!
Jing Xi looked at Ji moxuans handsome smile but did not shake his hand.
As she grew older and learned about the difference between men and women, she rarely touched the skin of boys.
Lou Ziling, who had barged into her life, was the only exception.
Her expression was cold, maintaining a kind of politeness and alienation that should be present to strangers.Hello, Im Jing Xi. Ive heard my father mention you before. Uncle Ji always gives me gifts every year. Its our first time meeting, please take care of me!
She kept her emotions in check in an instant. She could whine andin to Shangguan ning, but she would never do that to outsiders.
Ji moxuan looked at the girl in front of him and a trace of amazement shed in his eyes!
Her skin was creamy, her lips were red, her teeth were white, her facial features were exquisite, her eyes were clear like autumn water, and her eyshes were long and slender, full of charm.
She was wearing a pink dress and a white coat, making her look like the most beautiful princess in a fairy tale.
Her voice was clear and melodious, and it was not enough to hear. Her tone was gentle, and it wasnt as overbearing as Ji moxuan had imagined. It wasnt as cold and arrogant as a youngdy from an aristocratic family. She unexpectedly admitted that she knew him and didnt pretend to be reserved or ask who he was.
Her temperament was out of this world. She stood there quietly and was a fascinating scenery. Everything around her paled inparison to her.
It was only today that Ji moxuan finally understood that everything his father had described about Jing Xi was too vague. Ji Bos words of praise were not exaggerated at all!
Jing Xi did not shake his hand, and Ji moxuan did not feel that there was anything wrong with it.
Before he came, Ji Bo had warned him not to touch Jing Xi.
Family Jing didnt like to be touched by others. Jing Yichen and Jing Rui both had this problem, and Jing Xi might have it too.
In front of Jing Xis beautiful face, this little problem was insignificant to Ji moxuan.
She didnt ept his touch, and simrly, she wouldnt ept anyone elses touch. Being as pure as ice and as pure as Jade was a rare virtue for a girl!
Ji moxuan took back his hand and nodded to the assistant that Ji Bo had specially assigned to him.
The assistant walked over and handed him something. Ji moxuan took it and handed it to Jing Xi.My dad prepared a gift for you. I came here in a hurry today, so Ill give it to you. Ill make it up next time!
As he spoke, his tone was a little annoyed and a little joking.If I had known you were so pretty, I would have tidied myself up to look more handsome today!
In a short moment, he had closed the distance between him and Jing Xi.
He had even admitted that he had not prepared the gift.
If it was another person, he would not be so straightforward. In order to leave a good impression in front of the girl, he would say that this was a gift he had specially prepared.
Jing Xi chuckled. She took the gift and handed it to her bodyguard. She said to Ji moxuan,Then, Ill give you my present the next time you give it to me!
Ji moxuanughed,so I still have a present to take! Then Ill have to put in more effort when I pick a gift for you. I was going to buy one randomly, but it seems that I can t!
He extended his hand and gestured for Jing Xi to follow him as they walked slowly on thewn outside the horse track.
Ji moxuans assistant and Jing Xis bodyguards left tactfully, leaving only the young man and girl on the tender green grass.
Jing Xi knew that Jing Yichen had hired Ji moxuan to apany her, so she didnt reject his kind offer.
He was gentle and gentlemanly, and his words were humorous. He had the extensive knowledge of an aristocratic familys son, and the literature and art of an ordinary big boy. He spoke with fervour, and there was no awkwardness or long-winded talk. His IQ and EQ were obviously higher than others.
Jing Xi didnt reject him, but she didnt look at him differently either.
Because she was still not sure what the purpose of this person in front of her was.
She had just suffered a loss from Lou Ziling. If she trusted Ji moxuan so easily, then Jing Yichens teachings would have been in vain.
After chatting for half a morning, Jing Xi politely said goodbye.
When she got into the car, she realized that Shangguan ning was already in the car. She was both surprised and happy.Mom, why are you here?
She threw herself into Shangguan nings arms and started to cry.I miss you so much!
They had just separated in the morning, and he was already missing her? Shangguan ning held her daughter in her arms.Oh my, how old are you? why are you crying andughing at the same time? Ji moxuan willugh at you if he sees you.
Let himugh at me, I dont care!
Ji moxuan was standing outside Jing Xis car. He had already seen Shangguan ning sitting inside.
Hello, Auntie!
Shangguan ning, with her daughter in her arms, couldnt get out of the car. She nodded and smiled at Ji moxuan.Hello, mo Xuan,e to our house to y when youre free in the future! Ill take Xixi back first. Shes been spoiled by me and has no respect for her elders!
No, replied Ji moxuan with a bright smile,shes fine!
He stood there and watched the car of Shangguan ning and Jing Xi disappear from his sight. His smile slowly disappeared.
He took out his phone and dialed a number. Soon, a girls gentle and sweet voice came from the other end.Xuan, why are you calling me at this time? Didnt you say you were in a meeting? Did you miss me?
Ji moxuans voice was calm and gentle,No, Wu Wei, I just want to tell you that from today on, we are broken up.
The phone was silent for five seconds before the girls voice became panicked and aggrieved.Why? You dont like me anymore? What did I do wrong? Tell me, dont break up with me! Ill go crazy!
You didnt do anything wrong. Its just that were not suitable for each other! Also, I hope you can keep our rtionship a secret. Dont let my parents know, or it wont do you any good.
Ive always kept it a secret. Ive never told anyone!
Thats good! Ill give you enough money topensate you. Havent you always wanted to study abroad? If you want to go to the school I went to, I can send you off tomorrow.
Im not leaving! Xuan, are you in love with someone else?
Ji moxuan was silent for a moment before he replied indifferently,Yes.

Chapter 1414: If you dont want others to know, dont do it
Trantor: 549690339
Ji moxuan did not fall in love with Jing Xi at first sight, but he knew that she was the most suitable person for him. That was why he broke up with Wu Wei without hesitation.
Wu Weis voice was choked with despair and sadness,Then tell me, who is it? In what way am I inferior to her? Didnt you say that Im the most beautiful girl youve ever seen?
Hearing how upset she was, Ji moxuans heart softened and his tone also became gentler,Youre different. Youll know who she is in the future. Youre a good girl, and youre really beautiful. Study hard and youll have a better future.
You have to let me know who I lost to!
Wu Wei couldnt help but cry out sorrowfully, affectionately and lovingly,Im not willing to give up on you just like this. I love you so much and can give up everything for you. Can that girl do the same? Does she love you?
Even if I dont love you now, I will definitely love you in the future!
Ji moxuans expression was calm, without a trace of sadness from their breakup.
Before he met Jing Xi, he had always thought that Wu Wei was the most beautiful girl in the world. She was gentle, beautiful, kind, and had brought him a lot of happiness in his life.
However, after meeting Jing Xi, Ji moxuan knew that a real daughter of an influential family was far fromparable to an ordinary girl like Wu Wei.
Jing Xi was only 14 years old, but she was already much better than Wu Wei, who was 18 years old.
Wu Wei was older, so of course, he had the kind of charm and charm that Jing Xi didnt have, but Ji moxuan just happened to like the fresh and cold air on Jing Xi.
Perhaps it was because of her strict upbringing, but even the way Jing Xi walked wasdylike, unlike those more mature girls who would twist their waists, hips, and attract bees and butterflies.
At first nce, Ji moxuan felt that only a girl like Jing Xi was suitable to be his future wife.
Wu Wei could only be a vase and it was difficult for him to maintain his appearance on important asions.
This was also one of the main reasons why Ji moxuan had never dared to admit to Ji Bo that he had a girlfriend.
After hanging up, Ji mo Xuan returned home.
Ji Bo had been waiting for him at home for an hour.
How is it? Does Jing Xi like you? Did she ept the gift?
Father, Ji moxuan chuckled.Why dont you ask me if I like her?
As long as youre not blind, youll definitely know that shes very suitable for you! The key issue now is not that you pick her, but that she picks you. So, your preferences are not important. Whats important is Jing Xis preferences!
Ji Bo knew his son well, and he had been on a much longer path than Ji moxuan. His knowledge and strategy were not something that Ji moxuan couldpare with.
He hoped that his son would listen to him and not find some random woman because of his immaturity and ruin his Foundation.
Ji moxuan looked at his fathers sharp gaze and felt that his father seemed to be able to see through his heart and all his secrets.
He sat down on the sofa guiltily and took a sip of water to hide his guilt.
However, his small movement did not escape Ji Bos eyes.
Ji moxuan was only 16 years old. Although he looked tall and handsome like an adult, his psychological quality still needed to be trained. Every time he lied or felt guilty, he would use drinking or eating to hide his feelings.
Ji Bo usually wouldnt investigate his sons whereabouts, nor would he ask about his friends. His son had to have his own social circle.
However, it didnt mean that Ji Bo knew nothing.
If you dont want people to know, then dont do it.
Ji Bo sat down opposite to Ji moxuan and sighed,Mo Xuan, do you think daddy will harm you? Or do you think that your taste is better than someone like me who has lived for half a lifetime? That Wu Wei isnt easy to deal with. You deal with her yourself. If Jing Yichen knows about her, then you and Jing Xi will have no chance of getting together.
Ji Bo had met so many girls like Wu Wei in his life!
An 18-year-old girl was like a flower. She was older than Ji mo Xuan by two years and was well-versed in the ways of the world. She had the youth of a young girl and the charm of a mature woman. Her appearance was very beautiful and it was indeed easy for men to fall into the hands of such a woman.
Ji moxuans action of drinking water suddenly stopped as he said in shock,Dad, you know? Theres nothing between us, were just ordinary friends!
Yes, thats the best!
Ji Bo also thought that there should be nothing between the two of them.Mo Xuan, you have to know that your identity is extraordinary. There will be many girls like Wu Wei in the future. You are still young and dont have much power. The circle is only so big. Dont be in a hurry to position yourself. The kind of woman you find will determine your taste.
Ji moxuan didnt expect his father to not me him for his rtionship with Wu Wei. He heaved a sigh of relief and a smile reappeared on his face.Dad, dont worry. I wont do anything stupid. Jing Xi must have a good impression of me. Ill go to the racecourse again tomorrow!
While Ji moxuan was talking about Jing Xi, Jing Xi was also talking about Ji moxuan.
He looks pretty good. He has the air of the Ji familys young master. The Ji family has raised him to be quite knowledgeable and humorous.
Since hes a good friend, lets be friends first. Your father and I know Ji Bo. Hes a trustworthy man. I dont think his son is a bad person.
Shangguan ning peeled a grape for her daughter and put it in her mouth. Seeing her daughters calm face, which was totally different from the one she had in the morning, she patted her on the back and said,If you like Lou Ziling, lets let him keep youpany, okay?
Jing Xi also peeled a grape and fed it to Shangguan ning. She sighed softly.No need, mom. That would be meaningless. Its fine if he doesnt like toe, but Ill be going abroad in a few days anyway, so Ill work hard!
Jing Yichen had arranged for her to travel and study abroad. She had been to all the countries in Europe in the past two or three years and the rest of her schedule would be in North and South America.
Jing Xi liked this kind of course arrangement, as it could greatly increase her knowledge and broaden her horizons.
And whenever she missed her parents, they would apany her to travel around the world.
Lou Ziling might just be an insignificant passerby in her long life.
For the next few days, Jing Xis life did not change even after Lou Zilings disappearance. She still went to the horse track to run horses, but she worked harder than before.
Jing Yichen had always said that no knowledge was useless in this world, and no skill was unnecessary.
Jing Xi kept it in mind. What she had learned now might not seem important, but it might be useful in the future
Chapter 1415
Chapter 1415: A hairpin
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi was furious when Lou Ziling gave up on teaching her how to ride a horse, but Jing Yichen didnt take it out on the Lou family because of his daughters unhappiness.
On the contrary, Jing Yichen had a higher opinion of Lou Ziling.
Lou Zilings personality was the kind of person who would do great things.
But when Jing Yichen got home and saw his wife and daughter in a depressed state, he had to make things difficult for Lou Ziling.
It was one thing to praise Lou Zilings character, but it was another thing to stand her daughter up!
Therefore, even though the Lou family had obtained a huge order, the specific negotiation process was still full of difficulties and not very smooth.
The one who reced Lou Ziling to stay by Jing Xis side was the handsome and sunny Ji moxuan.
Strictly speaking, Ji moxuan and Jing Xi were the same age. The two of them had not yet touched the core business of the family, nor had they held any power, so they were still a little childish.
He was not like Lou Ziling. He was already 21 years old. The pressure on him was getting heavier and heavier. He was not thinking about eating, drinking, and having fun. He was thinking about survival, which was the most important career for a man.
Moreover, Ji moxuan was good with words. Unlike Lou Zilings unsociable and cold arrogance, he was confident and cheerful. His goal was to marry Jing Xi, so he got along very well with her.
In just a few days, the two of them had be friends.
It was rare for Jing Xi to meet someone she could get along with. More importantly, she knew very well that Ji moxuan did not get close to her for profit.
Family Ji had a strong foundation and power, so they didnt need her help to gain anything from family Jing.
Her rtionship with Ji moxuan was purer.
A weekter, Ji moxuan was waiting for Jing Xi at the horse track with an exquisite velvet box.
As soon as Jing Xi got out of the car, he went up to her with a handsome smile and a gentle tone.Xixi, this is my gift for you. Open it and take a look! He said.
Thank you, Jing Xi said with a smile. She opened the box and saw an exquisite wooden hairpin inside.
The hairpin was made of the expensive agarwood, which exuded a good fragrance. The carving was exquisite, and although the pattern was notplicated, it was clean and elegant, full of ssical charm.
Very beautiful!
Jing Xi smiled and praised him. Then, she heard Ji moxuan say,Of course, I carved it myself! You see, my fingers are blistered from the friction, otherwise I would have given this to you a long time ago!
Jing Xi was a little surprised. She looked down at the hairpin again.
She was already suspicious of Ji moxuans intention in giving her the hairpin, but now that she heard that he had made it himself, she could confirm his intention.
Jing Xi had never used things like hairpins, and ordinary people did not usually use them in their daily lives. She believed that the smart and sharp Ji moxuan would definitely know.
Giving her something she didnt need, the most likely reason was that the item represented a special meaning.
A hairpin was the symbol of a love token in ancient history.
Jing Xiughed in her heart. They were still so young. It was too early to give them this!
Her heart was not set. If she liked one person today, she might like another tomorrow.
She didnt believe that Ji moxuan, who was born into a wealthy family, would only like her!
He came from a good family, was handsome, generous, and had a gentle personality. The number of girls chasing him could line up to the moon!
On the day she met Ji moxuan, she had already read through his detailed information. There was a thick pile of his close female friends!
Jing Yichen had always been efficient and urate in his investigation.
Jing Xi even thought that the Ji family might have a lot of information about her. Ji moxuan must have read through all the people she had been in contact with, including Lou Ziling.
It was just a hairpin. If you said it had meaning, then it did. If you said it was just a piece of wood, then it was just a piece of wood.
Jing Xi closed the box and handed it to the bodyguard, epting Ji moxuans gift graciously.
Then, she got the bodyguard to take the gift from the trunk and immediately returned it to Ji moxuan.
Ji moxuanughed and said,you actually prepared a present long ago? I wont agree to it if youre just patronizing me!
Jing Xi smiled mysteriously.I suggest you open it when you get home. Its just a little gift I made myself. Im not trying to brush you off.
Ji moxuan was relieved to hear that Jing Xi had made it herself.
He did not open the gift on the spot. Instead, he handed it to the assistant and entered the horse track with Jing Xi.
Ji moxuan had thought that his horse riding skills were already very good, but he realized that although Jing Xi was only fourteen years old, her skills were even better than his!
How long have you been learning how to ride a horse?
Two or three months, Jing Xi replied.I think.
So short?
Ji moxuan was rather impressed by the youngdy riding the horse in front of him. She led a good life but was able to endure hardships. After riding for a long time, her thighs would hurt from the friction and she would easily get dizzy.
He had taught Wu Wei how to ride a horse and other girls, but each of them was very delicate. They couldnt stand it after a while. Wu Wei was even the most timid. The first time he got on the horse, he was almost thrown off. He was scared and cried. He had to coax her for a long time.
At that time, he still felt that he was very powerful and had a strong desire to protect them.
But now, he felt that those girls were really too pretentious!
Each of them was older than Jing Xi, and none of them was as noble as Jing Xi, but they were all princesses, and the real princesses were not.
The more time he spent with her, the more he discovered the various hidden strengths of her.
Ji moxuan felt a sense of regret for not having met her earlier. He should have listened to his father and met Jing Xi earlier.
Xixi, he said with a sigh.Youre very talented. Im a little ashamed!
Im not very talented, Jing Xi said after a moment of silence.Someone is more talented than me.
Who is it?
A Friend!
Oh, really? Then when can you let me see it?
A faint smile appeared on Jing Xis delicate face.You will definitely meet in the future.
In the future, Lou Ziling would take over the Lou family, and Ji moxuan would take over the Ji family as well. The heirs of the two families would definitely have to interact.
Jing Xi turned to look at Ji moxuan, who was in high spirits. She hoped that when they met again in the future, Ji moxuan would not be angered to death by Lou Ziling.
She had no pressure when she was with Ji moxuan. However, every time she was with Lou Ziling, she would feel pressured. She could not guess what he was thinking.
Perhaps the sky was clear a moment ago, but the next moment, it changed.
He didnt take his promise seriously at all. He waste, stood her up, cold, conceited, and had such a fierce temper.
Lou Zilings handsome and arrogant face appeared in Jing Xis mind. He was so bad, why did she still think of him?
Chapter 1416
Chapter 1416: Competitors
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling had been very busy recently. Moreover, Jing Xis name and appearance would appear in his mind many times every day.
It was not because Lou Ziling missed Jing Xi or because he felt guilty. It was because the cooperation with the Jing family had not been smooth.
Lou Mingyang would whisper Jing Xis name in his ear every day.
Lou Mingyang, who didnt usually scold people, had basically scolded Lou Ziling in a bloody manner these few days.
Obviously, Jing Yichen was standing up for his daughter. If Lou Ziling hadnt given up the opportunity to be with Jing Xi, their cooperation would have been over.
The Lou family had arge business and arge number of employees. If they didnt get the funds from Jingsheng enterprise, many employees would have to starve.
It might even cause a turmoil of resignation!
Lou Mingyang hadpletely forgotten his agreement with his sons bold words. He was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.Ziling, go and apologize to Jing Xi immediately!
Lou Ziling was sitting in front of her desk. She raised her head unhappily.What did I do wrong? Why did you have to apologize to her?
Lets not say that we broke our promise first. Even if theres nothing wrong, whats wrong with you apologizing to her? Do you still need me to teach you how to coax girls? When you get married in the future, dont you need to coax her?
Lou Mingyang himself was an expert at coaxing his wife. The two of them had been married for so many years. He had always been tolerant of his wife. No matter what the reason for their quarrel was, no matter who was right and who was wrong, he would always bow down to his wife and admit his mistake.
He didnt think that a man would look like a man if he were to have a cold War with a woman. On the contrary, if he were to be angry with a woman, it only meant that the man was too petty!
However, Lou Zilings personality was different from Lou Mingyang S. He was cold and arrogant. He couldnt bow his head and apologize to a fourteen-year-old girl.
Im not going! I didnt want to use her, so why did she have to apologize? This ispletely different from coaxing my wife. I dont know how to coax people, you know that!
Of course, Lou Mingyang knew that his son didnt know how to coax people. He had never bowed his head to anyone.
However, it was easy to break if it was too hard. Coaxing the little girl was the first step for him to learn how to bend!
I dont need you to make it sound so nice. Its just an apology. Is it that hard? You know the situation of our Lou familyspany. Jingsheng enterprise has been dying all the procedures because they want to help Jing Xi vent her anger. You let Jing Xi scold you in exchange for the stability of ourpanys employees and the prosperity of our family. This is already a good deal!
Lou Mingyang was so angry that his hair was about to stand up. He nced at his sons office and said,If you dont go, we wont even have an office! This building belongs to Jingsheng enterprise and we are renting their office!
The Lou family had wanted to buy this building at first, but Jingsheng enterprise had only rented it and not sold it. They had even offered the Lou family a very low price, so the Lou family had to sign a six-year lease contract.
The six-year contract would be up next month, which was June!
If you dont go and apologize, I will take your mother and sister to family Jing and apologize to them. Youre proud and conceited, but we dont have a bad temper. As long as we can save the Lou familyspany, your mom and sister will do anything!
What does this have to do with them?
How is it not rted? one is your mother and the other is your sister. If you do something wrong, they have the responsibility to take responsibility for you!
Lou Ziling suddenly leaned back in her chair, looking tired. After a long silence, she said,Alright, Ill go.
Before, when he was forced to protect Jing Xi on the ind by Lou Mingyang, it was a simr scene and a simr conversation. That was why he had to appear by Jing Xis side.
He was afraid that he would never be able to avoid Jing Xi in his life.
She was almost equivalent to his God!
Lou Ziling stayed in thepany untilte at night before she drove home.
Her father had gone to the factory in the suburbs, and her mother had gone to bed early. Only Lou ruofei was still sitting in the living room.
She still had a headache, but it had been alleviated a lot after the operation at family MUs Hospital.
When she saw Lou Zilinging home, she immediately stood up and went up to her.Ziling, I heard from my father that the cooperation with family Jing has not been going well these days. Did you offend Jing Xi? If it doesnt work, Ill go find her. As long as she can calm down, Ill do anything!
Lou Ziling looked at her elegant and gentle sister and gently shook her head.Im here, you dont need to show up.
What his father said was true. If his mother and sister knew that thepany was in danger, they would definitely go to the Jing family to apologize to Jing Xi on his behalf.
So, he had to go to Jing Xi tomorrow!
The next morning, Lou Ziling changed into a new set of clothes and tidied herself up. She wanted to look as handsome as possible.
He knew that Jing Xi liked handsome men, and he had to be handsome enough to have a higher chance of winning.
Perhaps Jing Xi would never know that he had crossed his bottom line again and again to please her.
In the past, Lou Ziling had never used his appearance to win others favor. He didnt care what others thought of him. But he had to care about Jing Xis attitude.
When they arrived at the horse track, Lou Ziling saw two horses riding side by side from a distance. There were two people on the horses. Lou Ziling knew that one of them was Jing Xi and the other was a man just by looking at their backs.
Jing Xi had always liked handsome men. After following yang nuo around for a few days, that mans back looked different from yang nuo s. Jing Xi had probably changed her target.
Lou Ziling didnt get close to them. He didnt change into his riding clothes. He only wore light brown casual clothes. He rode on his usual horse and followed them from a distance.
Jing Xi was too familiar with Lou Zilings face and quickly noticed him.
She didnt know why Lou Ziling suddenly came again, but she didnt want to know the reason. She didnt want to say a word to him either. She just pretended not to know him and didnt look at him from the beginning to the end.
Ji moxuan, on the other hand, saw that Lou Ziling had been following them. He couldnt help but turn to Jing Xi and ask,Who is this person? Is he your friend?
No, I dont know him, Jing Xi replied.
Ji moxuan was a little confused, but he did not ask further. He chatted andughed with Jing Xi as they galloped on the wide horse track.
After they were done, Jing Xi changed her clothes and went out.
Ji moxuan was waiting for her outside. Just as he was about to talk to Jing Xi, Lou Ziling stopped him and said,Im here today to apologize to you.
Jing Xi was expressionless, but Ji moxuan was stunned.
Jing Xi knew this man!
Moreover, it seemed like their rtionship was not ordinary. Could she be hispetitor?
Chapter 1417
Chapter 1417: Im willing to be used by you
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi ignored Lou Ziling. She walked out of the horse track, got into her car, and drove away.
Lou Ziling stood still and frowned. The little girl was really angry!
He had thought that it would be fine if he didnte. Even if he stayed here with Jing Xi, they didnt talk much all day, and Jing Xi disliked him for being quiet. Shouldnt she be happy that he was gone?
Ji moxuan watched Jing Xi leave and sized Lou Ziling up. He knew that he must be from an aristocratic family. His temperament could not be concealed.
If he was a disciple of an aristocratic family, he would undoubtedly be verypetitive!
There was nothing else but this persons tall and straight posture, and his facial features were too handsome!
ording to Jing Xis taste, this man must belong to the category of Prince Charming.
Seeing Lou Zilings frown, Ji moxuan revealed a confident smile.Stop looking. Xixi is already far away. She wont be yours even if you keep looking. Im the most suitable person for her in all of A city! Stay away from her in the future, or Im going to dere war on you!
Besides, youre not young anymore. Xixi is only 14. I hope you dont have any ideas about her. Shes not a good match for you!
Lou Ziling felt an inexplicable sense of frustration. He rarely felt this way.
He had always been indifferent to the matters of the outside world, and it was usually difficult for other peoples words to affect him.
Initially, he did not want to bother with Ji moxuan. However, for some reason, he still looked at Ji moxuan from head to toe.
Ji moxuan? Lou Zilings frown deepened.
Ji moxuans smile was a little dazzling and even a little conceited,It seems like you know me. I know all the young masters of the big families in A city, but I dont know you. Are you not from A city?
In fact, he was indirectly saying that Lou Zilings family background was not good.
His tone seemed gentle, but it was actually quite aggressive.
There was no other way. Ji moxuan did not want anyone to take Jing Xi away from him. He wanted Jing Xi to belong to him alone. He had to get rid of the otherpetitors.
Lou Ziling didnt n to introduce himself. The Lou family used to be a second-rate family in A city with the support of family Jing, but now they were reduced to a third-rate family because of Lou Zirong and Lou ruofu.
Moreover, Lou Ziling rarely appeared in A city. The people in a city only knew that the Lou family had a handsome Lou Zirong and that he was the future heir of the Lou family. However, no one knew that the Lou family had another Lou Ziling.
If he didnt work hard, the Lou family would soon be an uninfluential family, and the opportunity for him to work hard was in Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling was not in the mood to argue with Ji moxuan. His mental maturity was much higher than Ji moxuan S. Ji moxuan was only 16 years old and it was the time for him to be arrogant.
Moreover, the Ji family was powerful and far from beingparable to a small family like the Lou family. Ji moxuan had enough qualifications to be proud.
Lou Ziling straightened her back and strode away without another word.
He drove on the road, the frustration in his heart still lingering.
Lou Ziling had never seen Ji moxuan in person. He had only seen him once in the news. As the future heir of the Ji family, he had received a lot of attention.
Lou Ziling had a good memory and Ji moxuan looked very much like Ji Bo, so she recognized him at first sight.
In all aspects, Ji moxuan was indeed the most suitable match for Jing Xi. If they got married, it would be a strong Alliance.
Lou Ziling didnt realize until today that Jing Xis marriage would have a great impact on the Lou family.
Ji moxuan had obviously been with Jing Xi for more than a day or two. The two of them seemed to be very familiar with each other.
The possibility of Jing Xi marrying into the Ji family was extremely high. With Ji moxuanspany and protection, she would no longer need Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling stopped the car by the roadside, her heart heavy.
Did he really do something wrong?
He didnt listen to his fathers words. He didnt want to win Jing Xis trust and dependence before she married someone else!
Not only did he fail to build a good rtionship with Jing Xi, but he had also made their rtionship awkward.
Today, Jing Xis attitude towards him was unprecedentedly cold. Lou Ziling had the idea of sincerely apologizing to her.
Originally, he had no choice but to bow down to Jing Xi, but now, he was willing to.
Lou Ziling turned the car around and went to family Jing.
He waited for four or five hours at the gate ofndscapepound before he saw Jing Xi return.
Lou Ziling didnt know where she had gone, and she didnt care about her whereabouts. She just wanted to see her.
He stopped Jing Xis car and knocked on her window.I have something to tell you.
Jing Xi ignored him and told the driver to keep going.
Lou Ziling suddenly opened the car door and carried her out of the car.
He moved so fast that the bodyguard in the passenger seat didnt have time to react. The bodyguard didnt expect Lou Ziling to suddenly carry Jing Xi down.
Jing Xi had grown up in the past two years and she had already refused to let anyone hold her except Shangguan ning.
Jing Xi did not expect Lou Ziling to hug her. She said angrily,Put me down!
Lou Ziling didnt let go. He was tall and strong. He held Jing Xi, who was only 14 years old, and gently loosened his grip.
He stuffed Jing Xi into his car and got in himself. He still held Jing Xi in his arms, preventing her from running away.
Lou Ziling said to the bodyguard who wanted to take Jing Xi back,I wont hurt her. I just want to say a few words. Stay away.
The bodyguard did not leave. He just looked at Jing Xi with a questioning look, waiting for her instructions.
Sitting on Lou Zilingsp, Jing Xis face was burning red. She waved at the bodyguard, signaling him to step back. The bodyguard and the driver then left.
Let me go, youre taking advantage of me!
Lou Ziling slowly let go of Jing Xi and let her sit in the back seat of the car. He sat beside her and looked at her blushing face. Im sorry, I broke my promisest time.
The shyness on Jing Xis face quickly faded away and her face returned to its original fair color. Her eyes were a little cold, not at all like a fourteen-year-old child.
Youre here to apologize to me because your familyspany is in trouble, right? To you, I only have this value. Dont worry, those obstacles will disappear. You can leave now!
Jing Xi, I just didnt want to use you!
No, youve already used me!
Lou Ziling took a deep breath and said in a cold voice,Then should I continue to use him?
Jing Xis clear eyes looked straight into Lou Zilings eyes. Thats right, use! Cant you see that Im willing to be used by you? Do you really think I dont know anything?

Chapter 1418: The intimate cousins
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling listened to her crisp and tender voice and looked at her beautiful and childish face. Suddenly, she was speechless.
Yes, she actually knew everything. She was so smart, how could she not know his intention of getting close to her!
She knew exactly what he meant bying to see her again today.
She was willing to be used by him!
Lou Ziling felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. An inexplicable emotion overflowed from the bottom of his heart, and he did not dare to look into Jing Xis clear eyes.
He turned his head and was silent for a long time before he said in a low voice,There will be many people using you in the future. Remember to be clear about it.
Jing Xi looked at Lou Zilings handsome and perfect side profile and said in a low voice,Yes, its because Im useful that people keep looking for me. If Im useless, if my surname wasnt Jing, you wouldnt even look at me. I have to thank my father. Hes a sessful man who has brought his daughter status and glory that others cant even hope to achieve. I know that youre bowing down to me because of him.
The Jing Xi that Lou Ziling knew was happy and carefree most of the time. She was always positive. It was the first time he had seen her so depressed.
This kind of emotion should not appear on a fourteen-year-old Princess.
But he couldnt refute Jing Xi, because she was telling the truth.
If it hadnt been for Jing Yichen, he wouldnt have gotten close to Jing Xi.
No, thats not right!
He had saved her before he knew her identity!
Lou Ziling suddenly turned to Jing Xi and said,I didnt even know your name when I saved you at Dayun temple. Was that also because of your father?
Jing Xi raised her head, blinked, and suddenly smiled.No!
After coaxing Jing Xi, Lou Ziling left.
Jing Xi stood in the dark and watched Lou Zilings ck Volvo disappear into the street lights. Her smile gradually disappeared.
She didnt want Lou Ziling to leave.
She wanted him to stay with her for a while longer. Even if he had a cold face and didnt say anything, it was already good enough.
It was drizzling, and Jing Xis clothes were wet.
An umbre appeared above her head, and the bodyguard had appeared behind her.
Miss, its dark, time to go home!
Yes, lets go home.
Lou Zilings car drove far away. He didnt stop until he was sure that Jing Xi was out of his sight.
Just now, he had seen from the rearview mirror that Jing Xi had been standing there the whole time, watching him disappear.
Lou Ziling took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a few puffs to suppress the thought of going back to Jing Xi.
He rarely smoked.
He felt like he had gone crazy.
She was still a child.
Lou Zilings chaotic thoughts gradually became clear as smoke surrounded the car.
He threw away all his distracting thoughts, restarted the car, and went to the restaurant to have dinner.
Lou Ziling had always been picky about her food. Unless she had nothing to eat or drink, like when she was on the ind, she would eat exquisitely.
He entered a Western restaurant that had a good reputation and ordered a steak and spaghetti. The restaurant had given him a beautiful fruit tter as a gift, and he ate slowly.
On the outermost edge of the tter were crystal-clear and plump blueberries, which were like beautiful ck pearls. They were embellished among the other colorful fruits and were very eye-catching.
Lou Ziling had seen simr wild fruits on the tropical ind. At first, he would also pick some to fill his stomach and replenish the vitamins his body needed.
However, he stopped touching it after that.
Because he found that Jing Xi loved to eat wild fruits.
He had saved all of them for Jing Xi.
If he saw anyone picking the wild fruits around Jing Xi, he would drive them away in advance.
Hisbat power was unrivaled, and people usually wouldnt fight him to the death for a few wild fruits. They would all retreat sensibly.
Jing Xi did not know about this, and Lou Ziling did not want her to know either. As long as he saw Jing Xi picking wild fruits happily every time, eating until her lips turned purple and smiling in satisfaction, Lou Ziling felt very rxed.
Lou Ziling had unknowingly finished the fruit tter, but she did not touch any of the blueberries.
When he started to eat his steak, two people walked into the dining room and caught his attention.
The man was handsome and Noble, while the woman was gentle and beautiful. The two of them were leaning against each other intimately. The woman held the mans arm and spoke to him gently.
Lou Ziling didnt know the woman, but the man was Ji moxuan, whom he had just met during the day!
Lou Zilings brows furrowed imperceptibly. He took a deep look at Ji moxuan, then lowered his head and focused on eating his steak.
Ji moxuan was originally worried about meeting acquaintances, so he chose a restaurant that was slightly more remote.
He didnt expect to meet someone he knew, and apetitor he had just met today.
He let go of Wu Weis hand and walked to Lou Zilings table with a smile.I didnt expect to see you here. Did youe alone? I came here with my cousin, shes a regr here!
Cousin Wu Weis face stiffened, but then she smiled as if nothing had happened,Cousin, is this your friend? Howe Ive never seen him before?
Oh, we just met today, so its normal that cousin hasnt seen him before. Lets go and eat. Im so hungry! Lets make this clear first, youre the one who dragged me here, so this meal must be on you!
Wu Wei smiled generously and elegantly.Sure! My treat!
The two of them chatted andughed as they sat down at a table in the corner. Lou Ziling did not say a word to them.
He had never liked to talk, and when he met someone who put on a pretense, he would not open his mouth.
No pair of cousins would walk into the dining room with their arms linked intimately. When the woman spoke, she looked at Ji moxuan affectionately and her eyes were filled with love. It was as if she was looking at her lover instead of her younger brother.
At least, Lou Ziling couldnt even be so intimate with her own sister, Lou ruofei.
Of course, this was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that Lou Ziling had already memorized the interpersonal rtionships of the big families in A city.
Ji moxuan had a cousin, but it was definitely not the woman in front of him.
It was just an insignificant interlude. With Lou Zilings indifference, this matter would pass in the blink of an eye and would not leave a trace in his heart.
He quickly finished his dinner and walked out of the dining room.
Ji moxuans face turned dark after Lou Ziling left.
He stared unhappily at Wu Wei sitting opposite him and said in a bad tone,Didnt I say that Ill send you overseas? Why didnt you leave?
You didnt treat me like this just now. You got angry after seeing that man. Who is he?
Chapter 1419
Chapter 1419: What a coincidence!
Trantor: 549690339
Wu Weis beautiful eyes were filled with tears. Her lovely appearance, coupled with her curvaceous figure, was extremely lethal.
Ji moxuan also felt that Wu Wei couldnt be med for the breakup. He was the one who suggested it and she didnt do anything wrong.
His tone softened.I dont know him either. I dont know his name yet. Hes not an important person. Lets eat first! Arent you hungry?
Wu Wei smiled through his tears,yes, Im really hungry! I want to eat the best, so please prepare your wallet!
Dont worry, Ill treat you!
Ji moxuan was very satisfied with Wu Weis understanding of the big picture. She never pestered him too much and would not ask questions regardless of the asion.
Just like just now, when he called her cousin, she would immediately cleverly smile and call him cousin. She was very obedient.
When he said that Wu Wei would treat him, he was just saying it. Wu Wei didnt have any money at all.
He had given her all her money, even her school fees.
Such a Western meal cost a few thousand Yuan. With Wu Weis family condition, he couldnt afford it.
During the meal, Ji moxuan was a little distracted.
In the past, he would be considerate to Wu Wei and even cut her steak well, but today he didnt even have the mood to cut his own.
He was worried that his act with Wu Wei would fool Lou Ziling.
What if Lou Ziling told Jing Xi about him and Wu Wei?
Ji moxuan nced at the beautiful Wu Wei and decided in his heart that he must send her abroad!
ording to Ji Bo, Jing Xi had been traveling in Europe for the past two years, so it would be better to send her to North America instead of Europe.
He actually had feelings for Wu Wei. He was reluctant to send such a delicate girl to such a remote and deste ce, nor was he willing to send her to a ce like Africa.
North America had a developed economy and was suitable for further studies. It was also far away from here, so it was the best ce to send people there.
After dinner, Ji moxuan sent Wu Wei off that very night.
After that, he asked someone to investigate Lou Zilings background.
He heaved a sigh of relief when he found out that Lou Ziling was a member of the Lou family.
The Lou family had offended the Jing family a few years ago and had been on the decline for the past two years. They were barely able to maintain their status as a third-rate family. Moreover, Lou Ziling was already 21 years old this year, seven years older than Jing Xi, who was 14 years old.
Ji moxuan felt that Lou Ziling had nopetitive advantage at all.
He guessed that Lou Ziling had approached Jing Xi only so that the Lou family could return to the Jing family.
The next morning, Ji moxuan went to the horse track. When Jing Xi came, he tried to test her a few times and found that Jing Xi knew nothing about Wu Wei. He finally felt relieved.
It seemed that Lou Ziling did not say anything.
Jing Xi was very smart. She could feel Ji moxuans probing, but she pretended not to know anything because she did not care.
She was about to set off for North America and whether she would be able to see Ji moxuan in the future was another matter altogether. She had no interest in knowing what secrets Ji moxuan had.
Anyway, Ji moxuan was handsome and humorous, so it was easy to get along with him. It wasnt like he was the tujing familys money, so it was enough.
A weekter, Jing Xi boarded the ne to Los Angeles with her bodyguards, where Jing Yiran would pick her up.
In the first-ss cabin, Jing Xi and the bodyguard sat one after the other. The seat next to her was empty.
Just as the ne was about to take off, a person suddenly sat down in the empty seat next to Jing Xi.
Jing Xi turned her head. When she saw the mans face, she asked in surprise,Lou Ziling, what are you doing here?
Business trip, Lou Ziling replied calmly.
Jing Xi looked at him with suspicion.Such a coincidence?
She suspected that Lou Ziling did it on purpose. She often took nes, so why had she never seen him before?
Its a coincidence,Lou Ziling said calmly.
The business trip was decided by Lou Mingyang at thest minute, and the ne tickets were also booked by Lou Mingyangs assistant. It was obviously not a coincidence that he could take the same ne as Jing Xi and sit next to her.
Lou Mingyang did this on purpose.
In the past, Lou Ziling would reject Lou Mingyangs unauthorized behavior.
But today, Lou Ziling was not angry at all even though her father had set her up.
Perhaps it was because the girl sitting next to him was Jing Xi.
Jing Xi looked at Lou Zilings face carefully, trying to find a w in his expression. However, after staring at him for a long time, his expression did not change.
Youre doing this on purpose! Jing Xi mumbled.Youre not a good person! You wont do anything that doesnt benefit you
Hmph,st time you taught me how to ride a horse. Your family received an order at night, but you didnt go the next day!
Youre an ingrate! My dad actually praised you, saying that youre promising!
Jing Xi mumbled to herself for a while before she covered herself with the nket and closed her eyes to rest.
Lou Ziling had heard every word she said.
Seeing that she had fallen asleep, he slowly turned his head and looked at her beautiful face, slightly lost in thought.
The 14-year-old girls skin was as delicate as an egg without its shell, so delicate that it could break with a blow.
Her lips were red and pouty, moist and beautiful. They had a natural color and luster that no other lip gloss couldpare to.
Her eyshes were long and slightly curled up, her nose was delicate and delicate, and her long ck hair was let down, which inexplicably added a trace of charm to her.
After a long time, Jing Xi suddenly opened her eyes. Lou Ziling had no time to look away, and their eyes met.
Lou Ziling, How long have you been looking at me?
Lou Ziling retracted her gaze and remained silent.
He did not expect that Jing Xi would suddenly open her eyes.
He did not know how long he had been looking at her.
It shouldnt have been long. He felt that time had passed very quickly.
Jing Xi got up. She didnt care that the nket had fallen to the ground. She held Lou Zilings face with both hands and forced him to turn his head to face her.
Im talking to you. Why are you ignoring me?
The girls hands were soft and tender. Lou Ziling grabbed her slender wrists and removed her hands from his face. He scolded her,Sit tight, dont mess around.
Perhaps the ne had encountered turbulence, it was very bumpy.
Jing Xi rolled her eyes and looked at Lou Ziling pitifully.Is the ne going to fall? Im so scared, hug me!
The bodyguard behind the seat was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. Mydy, weve been on so many nes, and the bumps are more severe than this, but Ive never seen you afraid!
Lou Ziling also doubted the truth of Jing Xis fear. After all, she had survived on an ind full of danger for a long time.
However, he still hugged Jing Xi.
Chapter 1420
Chapter 1420: An underaged girl
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling had hugged Jing Xi countless times, but he had never hugged her like this without a good reason.
People who often took nes knew that turbulence was a very normal phenomenon in nes. Generally, there would not be any major problems.
Even if there was a problem or an emergency, Jing Xi could escape from the ne by herself andnd safely with a parachute and a life jacket.
Even Lou Ziling had done this kind of basic survival training many times, let alone Jing Xi.
This was why Jing Yichen had only assigned one bodyguard to Jing Xi.
Jing Xi was surprised that Lou Ziling was willing to hold her, but she didnt ask anything. She curled her lips and snuggled into his arms.
Although Lou Ziling had held her since she was eight years old, it was not asfortable and warm as this.
Every time he had hugged her before, he had been forced by the situation. Jing Xi had always rejected him, and she had never properly experienced what it felt like to be hugged by someone.
Being hugged by Lou Ziling and being hugged by her mother feltpletely different. Jing Xi felt her heart beating a little fast, and she even felt that the hand around her waist was very hot.
Jing Xi pressed her face against Lou Zilings chest and listened to his heartbeat. She suddenly felt that this was the best flight experience she had ever had.
There was no one else in the first-ss cabin, except for the stewardess who came back asionally. Only Jing Xi and the other two were left.
The bodyguards expression was calm, and he turned a blind eye to the intimate behavior of the two people in front of him.
Anyway, in the past six months, Lou Ziling had carried Jing Xi many times. Since Jing Xi liked to let him carry her, the bodyguard would never say anything.
People would often reveal some little secrets when they were in close contact.
For example, Lou Ziling could see Jing Xis naked body from her cor.
She must have just started to develop. She was young and tender. She was wrapped in a thinyer of white bra. The little bun on her chest was not big, but it had a strong impact on Lou Ziling.
Leaning against Lou Zilings chest, Jing Xi was counting his heartbeat with great interest. Soon, she noticed the change in his heartbeat.
She slowly raised her head and looked at Lou Zilings perfect chin. She said softly,Lou Ziling, why is your heart beating faster?
Yes, why did Lou Ziling also want to know the answer to this question?
He didnt say anything, but Jing Xi didnt let him go.
She unbuttoned the first two buttons of Lou Zilings shirt and put her hand in.
Her hands were soft and tender. When they touched Lou Zilings skin, he trembled slightly.
Lou Ziling stopped Jing Xis hand. His expression was cold, but his eyes were deep.Be good, dont mess around!
I just wanted to feel your heartbeat and see if your knot is firm
Jing Xi blinked her eyes and deliberately scratched Lou Zilings skin with her fingertip.
Lou Ziling immediately took her hand out of his clothes and held it tightly, not letting her move.Who taught you all this nonsense? Dont you know that there are differences between men and women?
Do you still need to be taught? Ive known a lot of things since I was three! I heard from my mother that my brother was even earlier than me! Arent my brother and I very smart?
Jing Xi knew a thing or two about the affairs between men and women. Not only had she read about it in books, but she had also seen it live in the wild many times.
However, she still did not understand why those people were so passionate about that kind of thing.
Every time she looked at it, she would feel bored and a little disgusted.
She just felt that being hugged was already veryfortable and blissful. There was no need for her to do anything further.
Jing Xis calm face made Lou Ziling a little confused.
Did she really understand?
If he really understood, he wouldnt be so indifferent! At the very least, she should be blushing!
She was so young and it was certain that she had never experienced sex before. Jing Yichen would not allow his only daughter to have such a thing happen to her, even if Jing Xi was willing to do it.
Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xis delicate skin and her tender face. A faint smile suddenly appeared on his lips.
This silly girl, she thought that she knew everything, but in fact, she was still too young and only knew a little.
In some ways, she was just an ordinary 14-year-old girl.
Lou Zilings mood instantly calmed down, and her heartbeat returned to normal. She focused on the nes condition. The weather outside was bad. Lightning shed, Thunder rumbled, and the rain was heavy. It was very dangerous.
He couldnt help but hold Jing Xi tighter.
Jing Xi could feel his movements and the nes turbulence. She leaned her face against Lou Zilings chest and asked calmly,Lou Ziling, if only one of us can live, who do you want to live?
Lou Ziling was silent for a moment. He looked at Jing Xis clean face and said,You!
He had to let Jing Xi live, and he could only let her live. There was no other choice.
Jing Xi seemed to know that he had no other choice.
When she heard his answer, she did not feel the slightest bit of joy or excitement, only a trace of sadness.
She didnt know if Lou Ziling would still let her live if she didnt have the Jing surname.
Theres no need for that. You just need to take care of yourself and keep yourself alive,she said softly.
Lou Ziling didnt say anything else. This topic was too heavy and not suitable for a 14-year-old girl. In his heart, she should be an optimistic and cheerful little princess.
Just like on an isted ind, no matter how hard it was, no matter how dangerous it was, she was still very happy. Every day, she was like a young bird, looking for food everywhere, and asionally, she would cheat others and snatch something.
That was the real Jing Xi.
They were entric and didnt know life and death or suffering.
The weather was so bad that many passengers in Economy ss were panicking. It was a mess inside.
Lou Ziling, with Jing Xi in her arms, was calm and quiet in the first-ss cabin.
There was still a long way to go to the next airport, but the current conditions made it impossible for them to continue flying. The ne was forced to make an emergencynding.
The nended in a dense forest. The body of the ne was damaged and ck smoke kept rising from it.
The crew members urgently evacuated the passengers to avoid casualties caused by the ne explosion.
Lou Ziling, along with Jing Xi and her bodyguards, were the first to leave the cabin.
Compared to the other passengers who were crying and cursing, Jing Xi still had a smile on her face. She ran quickly with Lou Ziling and still had the energy to talk to him.
Why do you think my father has such foresight? did he know that I would encounter a simr situation one day, so he arranged for me to do escape training so many times? So that I can survive in any harsh conditions!
Chapter 1421
Chapter 1421: Waiting for rescue
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling did not say anything.
The legend of Jing Yichen had been around for a long time in A city. His power was not something that ordinary people could understand, nor could his thoughts be understood.
It was said that he had been a genius since he was young, and that he had surpassed his master. He was the most outstanding heir of the Jing family in thest hundred years.
He must have nned out his daughters training long ago. It must have been thorough and meticulous.
Lou Ziling had once thought that it was unbelievable that Jing Yichen would leave his fourteen-year-old daughter on an isted ind to do survival training with a group of twenty-year-old adults. His sister, Lou ruofei, had never gone through such tough training. She had only been learning painting, dancing, calligraphy and other things.
But seeing Jing Xis calmness and the adults who were crying and screaming behind her, Lou Ziling admired Jing Yichen from the bottom of his heart.
There was a reason why the Jing n had been prosperous for over a hundred years.
Perhaps Jing Yichen had already thought of the worst case scenario for his daughter.
If the Jing family were to one day cease to exist, and no one could protect Jing Xi, she could still rely on what she had learned to survive.
She was probably the most precious flower in the eyes of everyone in A city, but no one would have thought that Jing Yichen had been raising her like a weed.
Although the current situation was somewhat terrible, it was much better than the situation on the isted ind!
At least Lou Ziling, Jing Xi, and the bodyguard each had a backpack, which had enough supplies for them to survive.
Everyone on the ne had evacuated. They watched from afar as the ne that they had once been on caught on fire. Men and women were crying and panicking, afraid that they would die in such a remote ce that they had never heard of.
Jing Xi shook her head.Hes crying so loudly. Hell run out of strength soon. He wont be able to run away if theres danger. The current situation is already very good. We didnt crash, and there isnt even a single injury. The captain is already very good!
Lou Ziling agreed with Jing Xi. He also thought that the pilot must be very powerful to be able to save everyone in such bad weather.
However, the captain and crew members were still scolded by the passengers.
The rain was heavy. Lou Ziling subconsciously wanted to help Jing Xi block the rain. Jing Xi looked up at him with her clear eyes. Its fine. I have a good body. Its fine to get wet in the rain.
Lou Ziling put a waterproof windbreaker on her and put the hood on her head. He asked,Didnt you catch a cold and a feverst time?
Jing Xis face burned at the mention of thest time. She stomped her feet in anger.Thest time was a special situation! Dont mention it again!
Its not a special situation this time, right?
Lou Zilings serious question made Jing Xis face turn red. She was so embarrassed that she refused to talk to him.
Lou Ziling asked again when he didnt get an answer from Jing Xi.
He had to confirm whether Jing Xi was in a special period. If she was, he had to find a way to contact rescue personnel immediately to ensure Jing Xis health.
If not, then he could live in the jungle with Jing Xi.
The airlinepany must have received the news immediately when the ne was destroyed. The rescue would not be toote. Even if they were savages, they would not be able to stay for long.
Jing Xi still didnt say anything. Lou Ziling turned to look at the tall bodyguard beside her in confusion.
When the bodyguard saw Lou Zilings gaze, he shook his head helplessly.
How could he know if Jing Xi was on her period?
He was Jing Xis bodyguard, only responsible for her safety, not a nanny!
No wonder Jing Yichen had been looking for a female bodyguard for Jing Xi. He was worried that it would be inconvenient for him to take care of a little girl when Jing Xi was in a special situation.
Seeing that the bodyguard didnt know either, Lou Ziling couldnt help but carefully recall Jing Xis situation at that time. Compared to her current appearance, her current state was obviously much better.
He should be fine.
Lou Ziling stood in the rain, letting her clothes get wet. She and the bodyguards protected Jing Xi, not letting her get wet or letting anyone get close to her.
Some of them had not brought enough food and water when they were forced to surrender, and now they realized the importance of those things and were asking for them from others.
A woman with a two or three-year-old child in her arms saw Jing Xi and the other two carrying big backpacks and immediately came to ask for food.
Jing Xi did not pity the woman, but she pitied the child she was holding.
She wanted to give the child something to eat but was stopped by Lou Ziling and the bodyguard.
Get lost! Lou Zilings voice was cold.
The bodyguard also sneered.Miss, dont give it to her. Her husband is also on the ne. He was just hiding food and now hes asking us for it. Hes using the child to gain sympathy. What a vicious person!
Jing Xi did not notice that the woman had a husband with her. She just wanted to give the child something to eat when she saw the child crying and looking hungry.
There should be other wild fruits and vegetables in the jungle to satisfy her hunger. She could eat anything, but a childs stomach was weak, and eating those random things could easily kill her.
But Jing Xi had been tricked too many times. Jing Yichen had taught her a lesson with blood that she should not trust people easily, or she would be the one who died.
On the isted ind, she generously shared her food and trusted her teammates, but what was the result? He was almost gnawed on by someone!
The woman and child were chased away.
Jing Xi looked like a weak little girl who was easy to bully, but she had Lou Ziling and a bodyguard who was taller and stronger than Lou Ziling standing beside her. She looked so majestic that ordinary people would not dare to pick a fight with her.
The bad weather, bad environment, and theck of food and water made people treacherous.
At first, there were still people who formed small groups to keep each other warm. However, after a day, everyone chose to fight for themselves.
Everyone had a limited amount of food on them. Some had more, and some had less. When working together, they had to share their food. No one was willing to give away their own food.
For the sake of food, many people had already started arguing, beating, and scolding.
The storm and wind became more and more intense, and the sky was so dark that it was hard to tell whether it was day or night.
Everyone looked for shelter from the rain, but the forest was deep. Some people went in and never came out.
At first, the captain and a few crew members were trying to coordinate with everyone and even gave their own food to others. After a day and a night, they had given up on protecting the passengers.
Because they were already exhausted, because no one was listening to theirmands.
Some people even suspected that they had hidden food and mineral water and robbed the air stewardesses small suitcases.

Trantor: 549690339
In the midst of the storm, everyone was constantly fighting.
No one dared to get too close or too far away from the others. They all kept a safe distance.
The rain was so heavy that almost everyone was drenched. The only one whose clothes were still dry was Jing Xi.
Those who were in poor health had already started to have a fever and cough. Seeing that Jing Xi was wearing a waterproof high-end windbreaker, many people had ideas about her.
Everyone knew that Jing Xi and the other two were first-ss passengers. They were the first to get off the ne and had brought the most items.
Just by looking at Jing Xis posture, one could tell that she was not an ordinary person.
She even brought two bodyguards with her when she went out, and the two bodyguards were very loyal, almost guarding her at all times.
Jing Xi didnt care that people were looking at her with all kinds of hidden eyes. Even without Lou Ziling and her bodyguards, none of the people present were her match.
Even in the face of a difficult situation, she didnt have anyints or panic. She took out a bag of beef jerky and gave it to the bodyguard and Lou Ziling.
She was worried that the bodyguard would not be full and would give him more.
The bodyguard smiled.Miss, youre still growing. Ill leave the dried meat for you. Ill just eatpressed biscuits!
How can that be? youre the one who consumes the most energy protecting me. You need to replenish your energy. When the weather gets better, the rescue team will be here soon. Its not like youll need one or two more days to grow!
The bodyguard had no choice but to take it and eat it.
In fact, he had been in all kinds of bad environments, and protecting Jing Xi was already a very easy job for him.
Lou Ziling noticed that Jing Xi didnt treat the bodyguard as an outsider and couldnt help but look at her.
Jing Xi stuffed the beef jerky into Lou Zilings mouth and blinked.Why are you looking at me?
Lou Ziling wasnt used to people feeding him. This was too intimate and he wasnt used to it.
But Jing Xi seemed to be unaware of it and continued to ask childishly,Why did you look at me just now? Do you think Im pretty and cute? Aiya, if you want to say it, just say it directly. Its not manly to be so secretive!
Lou Ziling felt a little helpless.Jing Xi looks quite manly now!
Put away your beef jerky. Otherwise, I wont be responsible for snatching it back if its stolen.
Lou Ziling was drenched. His clothes stuck to his body, revealing his fit body.
Raindrops kept falling on his handsome face, and Jing Xi suddenly understood what it meant to be sexy.
She lowered her head and looked at the two little peaches on her chest. She sighed faintly. When will I be sexy?
Why did she only grow taller, but not her chest!
Jing Xi and Lou Ziling stood side by side under the lush tree. She turned to him and asked,Lou Ziling, do you like big breasts or small breasts?
Lou Ziling, who was drinking water, almost choked!
This change of topic was too sudden!
The bodyguard standing on the sideughed. Jing Xis words were shocking, and he had already experienced it before. Now it was Lou Zilings turn.
Lou Ziling didnt answer. Jing Xi nced at his strong chest muscles and muttered,Ill definitely like big breasts!
Lou Ziling didnt know what to say. He felt that silence was the best. Otherwise, he didnt know what Jing Xi would say.
Was sheining that her breasts were too small?
Lou Zilings mind shed back to the time when she saw Jing Xi on the ne. She suddenly felt likeughing.
Her chest was not big, but with her age, it was normal for her to look like a little bun.
She had just had her period, so it was reasonable for her to developter.
Lou Ziling did not expect that Jing Xi would care about her chest!
He hesitated for a moment before finally saying,Youre still young. When they grew, their breasts would naturally grow.
Lou Ziling had only said a few words when Jing Xi misunderstood and thought that he was referring to her small breasts.
Youre the one whos small!She red at him angrily. Im big!
Lou Ziling didnt care. ying with Jing Xi was the only fun in this storm.
His heavy heart was washed away by her crisp voice.
The business trip that Lou Mingyang arranged for him was really to discuss a project cooperation abroad. It was not an insignificant matter. Otherwise, Lou Ziling would not have been fooled at all.
He was worried that if he waste, the cooperation would be ruined.
However, as time passed, his anxiety gradually dissipated.
Perhaps his most important task was not to close the deal, but to protect the little girl beside him.
The benefits she brought were endless.
If anything happened to Jing Xi, the future of the Lou family would be dark.
Lou Ziling needed to maintain a close rtionship with Jing Xi before the Lou family was fully developed and established more cooperative rtionships.
Although Lou Ziling felt that he was shameless, he had no other choice.
Jing Xi was the easiest to get close to, and she was willing to be used by him.
Lou Ziling couldnt help but reach out to adjust Jing Xis windbreaker hat and fasten the buttons for her so that she wouldnt get wet.
Her saying that she was willing to be used by him touched the softest part of his heart.
He wanted to do everything he could to not let her get hurt or suffer any grievances.
Jing Xi didnt know about Lou Zilings inner struggle andplications. She only felt that Lou Zilings action of tidying her hat was very warm.
She raised her head and smiled at Lou Ziling.So you know how to take care of people. I thought you were a Cold Stone!
Lou Ziling looked at the face that was still bright and beautiful even in the storm. She said softly,I didnt originally
The wind and rain were too heavy for Jing Xi to hear Lou Zilings voice. She tiptoed and got close to Lou Zilings face.What did you just say?
Its nothing,
Lou Ziling took a step back to put some distance between her and Jing Xi. She continued to stand by her side like a door God.
In the middle of the night, Lou Ziling and the bodyguards took turns to keep watch. Jing Xi climbed up a branch, made a simple bed, and fell asleep in the storm.
She had been trained by Jing Yichen to be able to stay calm no matter how bad the environment was. She would sleep and eat when she needed to.
Without enough physical and mental strength, one would not be able to deal with danger when it came.
Jing Xi looked like a young girl, and many people had their eyes on her in the dark.
Because so far, she had brought the most daily necessities, food, drinks, and even clothes.
It was easier to deal with one person than two.
Seven or eight people joined forces and surrounded Lou Ziling, who was on night duty.
The bodyguard was too tall and strong. His muscles were obviously well-trained. Lou Ziling, on the other hand, was tall but rtively thin and weak.
That was why they chose to attack when Lou Ziling was on night duty.
Lou Ziling looked at the eight people around her and her eyes were cold.
Chapter 1423
Chapter 1423: Saved
Trantor: 549690339
Thanks to Jing Xi, after Lou Ziling saved her when she was eight years old, he deeply felt that he was too weak. Otherwise, he could have taken Jing Xi back from that persons hands and not have to chase those people so far, causing him to have a high fever for several days.
Later, Lou Ziling trained hard and found a professional teacher to teach him how to fight.
Now, ordinary people were no match for him.
Lou Ziling had never thought that after learning how to fight under Jing Xis stimtion, she would one day use it to protect her.
The little girls luck was pretty good.
Lou Ziling didnt wake Jing Xi or the bodyguards up. He stood straight in the rain. His confidence made the eight people hesitate and not dare toe forward.
The bodyguard was very alert. As soon as someone approached, he immediately opened his eyes.
He leaned against the tree where Jing Xi was resting and took a short nap.
Jing Xi woke up as well. The eight of them had never received any professional training, and their footsteps were messy, waking her up.
She looked at the situation under the tree and was about to climb up when she heard Lou Zilings indifferent voice.Jing Xi, go back to sleep. Ill take care of this.
The bodyguards mouth twitched and he sneered.Miss, Im still here. You dont need to do anything.
The eight people surrounding them all felt a little strange. In this day and age, there were not many people who used the term miss.
The bodyguards tone was respectful. It was obvious that miss was a form of respect, and he considered himself a subordinate.
Everyone couldnt help but look at the little girl lying on the tree branch, some doubts in their hearts about her origins.
Their desire for food quickly overcame their doubts and concerns. They had no experience in surviving in the wild, so they had finished everything early.
Unlike Jing Xi, she had always been saving her food. She would rather leave thest one than finish it all at once.
Before she left A city, she didnt even eat a single piece of the chocte that Shangguan ning had given her.
Everyone knew that she had good food in her bag. They knew that they wouldnt be able to get it, so they resorted to violence.
Eight people besieging three people, they should be able to win, right?
Jing Xis bag was hanging on the branch. The eight of them gritted their teeth and rushed to grab it.
However, before they could even touch the backpacks, they were sent flying.
Lou Ziling was strong. Even the students who had undergone strict training on the ind were not his match, let alone these ordinary people.
Among the eight people, only one had practiced Tai Chi for a few years. He wanted to show off his skills, but he was kicked away by Lou Ziling as soon as he got into position.
Wails sounded from all around. Lou Zilings cold voice resounded,Whoever dares to have designs on our young miss will end up in a worse state than now!
He deliberately used the name bodyguard to address Jing Xi, to highlight Jing Xis identity and maintain her mystery. This way, people would be more honest and obedient when they were afraid of her.
Lying on the branch, Jing Xi looked down at Lou Ziling, her eyes shining with excitement.
Oh my, Lou Ziling is so handsome! More charming than ever!
The ssic scene of a hero saving a beauty, should she be like in the story, offering her body to him?
Just thinking about it made him happy!
She was still wearing Lou Zilings clothes. She looked cold and quiet, but she was actually very warm.
Jing Xi giggled as she wrapped herself in Lou Zilingsrge waterproof windbreaker and fell asleep.
The night passed, and the next morning, the sky was still dark. They had been trapped here for two days.
He didnt know where he was, but there was no signal at all, and he couldnt make a call.
Of course, even if there was a signal, everyones mobile phones would have run out of battery and been soaked in water. They could not be used.
Jing Xi didnt arrive in the United States on time and Jing Yiran didnt pick her up. He had called Jing Yichen a long time ago.
The ne crash had now attracted the attention of the entire world.
The bad weather had made the search and rescue work very difficult. The area was deserted and there were dense primitive forests everywhere, making it difficult for cars to drive in.
However, the ne did not dare to fly in this direction in this weather. Otherwise, it would end up like this ne, easily crashing.
The first to arrive was a military helicopter.
A tall figure came down from the helicopter. Jing Xis eyes lit up and she ran over to him happily.Daddy!
Jing Yichen didnt mind his daughters wet clothes at all. He held Jing Xi in his arms and touched her head.Xixi, are you alright?
Im fine, Jing Xi said with a bright smile.Dont worry!
At such a close distance, she could see clearly that Jing Yichens eyes were bloodshot and his face was full of fatigue and anxiety. Apparently, he had been looking for her these days without any rest.
Jing Yichen let out a long sigh of relief. He let go of Jing Xi, patted her shoulder and praised her.My daughter is indeed smart and brave. I told you you would be fine! Weve done so much training, its still useful!
Of course, I didnt encounter any difficulties these two days except being in the rain! Besides, youve arranged for people to protect me. Someone tried to steal my food, but they were all chased away!
Jing Yichen nced at the noisy crowd, nodded at the bodyguards and Lou Ziling, and then got into the helicopter with Jing Xi.
Jing Yichen didnt care about anyone else.
He was indifferent and cold by nature, and he would not do anything to save people.
Besides, there were people who wanted to take Jing Xis food. He was already kind enough not to teach them a lesson!
Dad, arent we taking those people with us? Some of them have a fever and they have nothing to eat.
Jing Yichen had never killed his daughters innocent and kind side. He was cold and cruel, but that didnt mean that his daughter would be like him.
He wrapped a nket around Jing Xi and said,The rescue team will be here soon. We dont need to take them away.
No one could buy a military helicopter, and Jing Yichen had only borrowed one.
They were supposed to set off together with the governments rescue team, but the rescue team wanted to wait for the weather to get better before carrying out the rescue to prevent more casualties.
But Jing Yichen couldnt wait any longer. He took his men and rushed through the sky regardless of the danger.| The clouds had arrived first.
It was still extremely dangerous to fly through the forest.
If Jing Yichen brought Jing Xi with him, he would be able to protect her at all times. But if he brought along those emotionally unstable people, it would be a disaster.
Jing Xi had changed her clothes and was sipping on a ss of hot water.
Lou Ziling and her bodyguard had also changed into dry clothes and were sitting in the cabin.
Jing Yichen looked at them and said,thanks for your hard work. Im indebted to you for taking care of Xixi. I wont forget.
The bodyguard was one of his own and had been through life and death for many years. They were already like brothers, so it was nothing.
Jing Yichen was referring to Lou Ziling when he said hard work.
Chapter 1424
Chapter 1424: You dont need toe
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling was very respectful when he was facing Jing Yichen.
This is what I should do.
He didnt say anything to im credit, but he clearly stated his position.
Jing Yichen had always had a good impression of Lou Ziling. Compared to his age of twenty-one, he was a calm and steady man who could take on heavy responsibilities.
He told the two of them to have a good rest while he paid close attention to the nes flight condition.
Fortunately, they were lucky. Although the ne was shaking badly, they still flew over the area safely.
When the storm was over, Jing Yichen sent his daughter to the United States.
Jing Xi moved into Jing Yirans house, but he was not at home often. Most of the time, Jing Xi lived in the house by herself and lived a free life.
The sses that Jing Yichen had arranged for her were not too tight. With Jing Xis intelligence and ability, she could finish them easily.
That was why she had a lot of time to go out and y.
She had been to North America and some of the famous attractions, but that was a few years ago. Jing Xi was still very excited to visit them again.
Of course, she was going out with Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling was originally on a business trip to discuss cooperation. Unfortunately, due to the dy of a few days, she had already cooperated with someone else.
He had lost an opportunity.
At the same time, Jing Xis importance had be more and more obvious.
Lou Ziling spent almost every day struggling. He knew deep down that he should not use a little girl for the benefit of his family, but reality had forced him again and again to get close to Jing Xi, to win her trust, and even to win her love.
Lou Mingyang would call him every day to make sure that he was with Jing Xi and not letting go of a money tree.
Lou Mingyang didnt think that gaining the support of the Jing family through Jing Xi was a kind of exploitation. He felt that it could only be regarded as another kind of cooperation.
After all, they had never intended to hurt Jing Xi, and they had never betrayed her or the Jing family.
Lou Mingyang didnt care much about the business cooperation in North America. He was afraid that his son would be stupid again and leave Jing Xi behind and go back to China alone.
Lou Ziling didnt n to go back to China. He was still working hard every day and contacting manypanies, trying to find a breakthrough so that family Lou wouldnt be so dependent on family Jing.
Fortunately, Jing Xi was not free every day. She had a lot of things to do. She did note to see Lou Ziling all the time, so Lou Ziling had enough time to contact and negotiate with otherpanies.
Time passed very quickly, and it was almost winter in the blink of an eye.
Jing Xi had grown a little taller, and her looks were more outstanding.
In a few months time, she had already traveled to several cities.
Lou Ziling apanied her to change cities, change hotels, and changepanies.
This made things convenient for Lou Ziling. Every time he was almost done with a city, Jing Xi would change cities. Lou Ziling had already received three big orders.
There were also small orders, but Lou Ziling didnt like them.
It was deep in winter and it was snowing heavily in North America. Jing Xi took Lou Ziling to the ski resort on the Rocky Mountain.
The Rocky Mountains stretched thousands of kilometers across the west coast of North America. There were mountains, canyons, ciers, hot springs, and so on. It was a great ce to ski in winter.
The most famous ski resort in the Rocky Mountains was the Vale ski resort, which was where Jing Xi and Lou Ziling hade to.
After a few months of getting along, Jing Xi and Lou Ziling had be more familiar with each other. They knew each others little preferences and taboos. Although they were not so close that they could talk about everything, at least the sense of alienation was gradually dissipating.
Lou Ziling had been to a University in the United States and had been to a ski resort before. His skiing skills were not bad. Although he was not very professional, he was much better than Jing Xi.
Because Jing Xi was aplete novice in skiing.
She kept falling and falling. Once again, shended face first, and half of her face was bruised.
Lou Ziling couldnt stand it anymore. She followed her and whispered,If you can t, then dont learn. Its fine if you dont know this.
Jing Xi covered her face and smiled at him. Its okay, I can do it!
Although it hurt, Jing Xi didnt care. She was more concerned about how embarrassing it was to keep falling.
She felt especially embarrassed in front of Lou Ziling.
There were always things that people were not good at. Perhaps to Jing Xi, her skiing skills were not very developed and she could not master the main points.
She felt that she would definitely improve after a few more practices.
Jing Xi turned around to leave, but Lou Ziling grabbed her arm.
She was pulled back to Lou Zilings side.Todays practice is enough. Skiing itself is a difficult thing. Its not something that can be done in one or two days. Well continue tomorrow. Youre not allowed to practice anymore today.
Its still early, Ill ski a little longer! Ill find a coach to teach me tomorrow. You dont have toe.
This was the first time that Jing Xi had refused Lou Zilingspany.
In the past, her conversation with Lou Ziling was always are you noting? Hurry up ande! This kind of look.
Lou Ziling had also hoped countless times that Jing Xi would no longer let him apany her, so that he could work in peace and even return to China.
However, when he heard Jing Xi say,you dont have toe, there was no joy in the depths of his heart. He didnt even feel as rxed as he had thought.
The trip to the Rocky Mountains was nned by Jing Xi. Jing Yichen had hired a ski coach for her, but Jing Xi had turned him down.
A month ago, when she found out that Lou Ziling knew how to ski, she wanted him to teach her.
But now, she seemed to have changed her coach.
Lou Zilings heart was filled with all kinds of emotions. However, it was obvious that she was not happy.
He was still holding onto Jing Xis arm, not letting her go.
He lowered his head and looked into Jing Xis clear eyes.Did I not teach you well?
Jing Xi smiled.No, its not bad. But maybe were too familiar with each other, so Im always distracted. It might be better for a stranger to teach me.
She was telling the truth. When Lou Ziling was beside her, she would get distracted and couldnt focuspletely.
Lou Ziling was silent for a moment before she finally said,Alright, he said.
He didnt seem to have any reason to stop Jing Xi from finding a ski coach. She didnt need him to teach her anymore. Shouldnt he be happy?
However, Lou Ziling wasnt happy at all. Even after they left the ski resort and returned to the hotel, his face was still cold.
Fortunately, he was cold most of the time and did not like to talk, so he did not seem to be different.
Jing Xi didnt go well skiing, and she was not as active as usual. She didnt talk all the way, and it was eerily quiet in the car.
Chapter 1425
Chapter 1425: Lost in thought
Trantor: 549690339
For the convenience of skiing, Jing Xi and Lou Ziling stayed in a hotel near the ski resort.
Back at the hotel, Jing Xi took off her clothes and took a shower, only to find that there were many bruises on her body.
At that time, he was too strong-headed and actually didnt feel much pain.
Now that she was in the shower, Jing Xi gasped. It hurt even when she applied shower gel on her body.
When she finished her shower and changed her clothes, she looked in the mirror and realized that half of her face had turned green!
Half of his face was white and the other half was ck. He had be a hermaphrodite!
Jing Xi sighed again and again. She couldnt face anyone with this face. Those who didnt know would think that she had been beaten up!
When she went out the next day, she simply put on a big mask to cover her face.
Anyway, the weather was so cold outside now, and many people were wearing masks to keep out the cold, so it would not be too eye-catching for her to wear it.
Lou Ziling stood in front of the window in the room and watched Jing Xi leave in the car. He felt a little disappointed.
He tidied himself up and went to the hotels buffet restaurant for breakfast.
After breakfast, he drove out in a rented car.
Maybe Jing Xi wouldnt let him go skiing with her for the next few days. He couldnt stay idle. He could go to a few more United Statespanies.
The Lou family was in the sports equipment business, but they were not very well-known. They had never set foot in the North American market. Therefore, to the Lou family, there was still a lot of potential for development.
As long as they were willing to put in the effort, they would still be able to get a lot of orders.
After all, the sports equipment of the Lou family had a strongpetitive price and good quality. They would definitely buy it again after one use.
Lou Ziling left early in the morning and returnedte every day. It had been several days since he had seen Jing Xi.
Shangguan ning happened to be here these days. With her apanying Jing Xi, Lou Ziling didnt need to show up.
However, Shangguan ning invited Lou Ziling to have dinner with her to thank him for taking care of her daughter in the past few months.
If Jing Xi was the first person Lou Ziling had to take care of, then Shangguan ning was the second.
These two women had an unparalleled influence on Jing Yichen and Jing Rui.
And Shangguan ning, as an elder, needed Lou Ziling to treat her with care.
Over the past few months, family Louspany had been getting better with the support of family Jing. The office building of Jingsheng enterprise that family Lou had rented had been renewed at a low price.
This was enough to prove that getting close to Jing Xi was the most direct and effective way.
And Jing Xis mother would also be an effective channel.
Lou Ziling had received a call from his father, Lou Mingyang, before Shangguan ning had arrived. His task was to show Shangguan ning his sincerity to Jing Xi.
Women were always more emotional than men. Jing Yichen would appreciate him for his character, but Shangguan ning might not.
If Lou Ziling had a good character but was indifferent to Jing Xi or even made Jing Xi angry, Shangguan ning would not like Lou Ziling because she loved her daughter.
Lou Ziling changed into a new grey suit with a light blue id shirt and a ck coat. He went to the restaurant that Shangguan ning had bought.
He was dressed formally but not rigidly. His maturity exuded the vitality and spirit of a young man. His face was handsome, and even if he didnt speak, he had his own glow.
Shangguan ning couldnt help but smile when she saw Lou Zilings reaction.
She finally understood why her daughter, who loved the new and hated the old, only fell in love with Lou Ziling twice. She had never found a new target.
Jing Xi whispered in Shangguan nings ear,How is it, mom? is he handsome? she asked.
Shangguan ning said to her daughter in a low voice,Hmm, not bad!
Jing Xi had taken a fancy to many handsome young men. When she was a child, she always liked to look for targets everywhere. She always said to keep the children her age who had not grown up. Who knew, they might grow up to be handsome?
However, it was obvious that Lou Zilings appearance was not the only thing that attracted Jing Xi to remember her for so long.
The Jing family was powerful enough to protect Jing Xi, so Shangguan ning was not worried even if Jing Xi was in a rtionship.
She was an open-minded mother. It was normal for a little girl to fall in love with a handsome young man. Not to mention, Lou Ziling had saved her time and time again. Even when Jing Xi was at her lowest, he was there to protect her.
She was not afraid of her daughter falling in love, but she was afraid that her daughter would not fall in love.
When Jing Xi was a child, Shangguan ning used to have a headache. She always thought that Jing Xi would blow up things here and there. She thought that Jing Xi had countless ideas to mess with people and that it was impossible to guard against. She even suspected that no one would want her daughter when she grew up.
She was even afraid that her daughter would be too obsessed with weapons and viruses to fall in love and get married.
That was why Shangguan ning was very supportive of Jing Xi liking handsome men.
At least it was better than her making explosives and viruses, right?
But so far, Shangguan ning hadnt found anything different about how her daughter treated Lou Ziling.
At most, she was a little dependent on Lou Ziling. She would feel a little ufortable leaving Lou Ziling, but she wouldnt really miss someone like other girls.
Lou Ziling greeted Shangguan ning with respect and then took a seat. There was silence.
He was not good at chatting.
In the past few months, when he talked about cooperation with otherpanies, he usually didnt talk much. He would only introduce his ownpanys products. It was simple, direct, and straightforward.
This style was still very popr in North America. Everyone liked to be more direct to avoid wasting both sides time.
The person Lou Ziling talked to the most in her life was not her biological parents or her sister, but Jing Xi.
She always had a way to make him talk.
For example, at this moment, she was still lively at the dining table. Even if Lou Ziling kept silent, he would not feel that the atmosphere was awkward.
And maybe it was because Shangguan ning was with Jing Xi, Jing Xi was as happy as a little bird. She liked to smile more than usual and acted like a 14-year-old girl.
Jing Xi had never acted coquettishly to Lou Ziling before.
Lou Ziling looked up and saw a small bruise on Jing Xis delicate cheek. She wondered how her ski skills were going.
If it was any other girl, she would have given up after the first day, but she insisted on it every day.
She was so smart, and the coach that Jing Yichen had found for her must be an expert as well. She must have learned well by now.
Just like when she learned how to ride a horse, she learned it very quickly.
Lou Ziling!
The clear and melodious voice brought Lou Ziling back to his senses. He looked at Jing Xi with a questioning look, not knowing why she had called him.
My mother is talking to you, Jing Xi pouted.Why are you so distracted?
Lou Ziling looked at Shangguan ning apologetically. Im sorry, I was just thinking about some things in thepany and was a little lost in thought.
Shangguan ning shook her head with a smile.Dont worry. We are just having a meal together. Dont be shy.
Although she was smiling, she was puzzled.
As far as she knew, Lou Ziling was a strict and serious person. He should not be distracted.
Chapter 1426
Chapter 1426: His heart is made of stone
Trantor: 549690339
Not only was Shangguan ning confused, Jing Xi was also confused.
Lou Ziling was very smart and had a good reaction time. Jing Xi even found out that he could do two things at the same time. It was not normal for him to be distracted.
Jing Xi thought that the Lou familyspany might be in trouble.
Lou Zilings expression didnt change much. He found that Shangguan ning was easy to get along with. He felt rxed.
But he still didnt talk much. Most of the time, it was Shangguan ning and Jing Xi talking, and Lou Ziling just listened quietly.
After dinner, Shangguan ning realized that she didnt get to know more about Lou Ziling.
He was a man of few words, and there was a sense of pride and indifference in his bones, which waspletely different from Jing Xis preferences!
Didnt Jing Xi always dislike people who spoke little?
Lou Ziling was a loner, not the kind of sunny and warm man that Jing Xi liked.
Shangguan ning told Jing Yichen about Lou Ziling after she returned from North America.
Isnt it a bad idea to let Lou Ziling stay by Xixis side? She was still young, so she might not be able to tell what was like and what was habit. Didnt she always like warm, handsome men in the past? Why do you like the cold type now?
Jing Yichen put down the book in his hand and walked to his wife. He smiled. Its normal for her preferences to change as she grows older. I allowed Lou Ziling to stay by Xixis side because of my trust in Lou Mingyang, not Lou Ziling.
Oh, really? But I think Lou Ziling is more reliable than Lou Mingyang. Lou Ziling is young and more upright. Lou Mingyang should be an old fox, right?
Lou Mingyang is an old fox, but he bears more responsibilities than Lou Ziling. He has more scruples and wont act rashly. But its not necessarily the case for Lou Ziling. Hes basically forced to apany Xixi. Hes not willing.
Lou Ziling was excellent, but in Jing Yichens eyes, he still needed more experience.
Lou Mingyang was eager to cooperate with the Jing family. He was a loyal man. Jing Xi would not be in any danger with Lou Ziling.
But Jing Yichen also felt that Lou Ziling had been with Jing Xi for too long. Maybe it was time for Lou Ziling toe back.
He just didnt know if Jing Xi would be unhappy.
Jing Xi, who was far away in North America, was not happy to receive Jing Yichens call.
Dad, hes a good man and hes very capable. Didnt you allow him to stay by my side?
I wanted him to protect you. Lou Ziling did a good job. I will not mistreat the Lou family. But now that youve grown up, its not good for a man to always be by your side. Ive found a female bodyguard for you, and shell be going to North America in two days.
Jing Xi understood what Jing Yichen meant. She suddenlyughed. Its okay. Whats wrong with a man following me? Ill just marry him!
Jing Yichenughed as well,of course, he has to cherish you and love you. When she was eight years old, she cried and said that she wanted to get married, have you forgotten? She was fourteen now, but she still looked like an eight-year-old! If someone wants to marry you for the sake of profit, your mother and I will never agree to it.
Then what should I do? my family is so rich. The person who marries me will definitely not only like me, but also like the entire family andpany behind me.
No, in the future, there will always be someone who likes you more than money and benefits. With the support of your family, you can get to know a person more quickly.
Jing Xi knew that she would lose to her father in a debate, so she stopped trying to reason with Jing Yichen and said,I finally found a good friend. I dont want Lou Ziling to leave!
Jing Yichen chuckled.How about this? I will give the initiative to Lou Ziling. Lets see what he will choose.
A few dayster, Lou Ziling received a call from Lou Mingyang.
The Lou family had been busy with business recently and Lou Mingyang was always invited out by Jing Yichen to discuss projects. Thepany was in a mess and needed someone to take charge.
Without any hesitation, Lou Ziling decided to return to China.
Lou Ziling was still at the ski resort with Jing Xi when she made the decision.
Im going back tomorrow.
Lou Zilings words made Jing Xis expectant eyes dim.
Youre leaving so soon? I dont want you to go.
Jing Xi stood in the vast snowfield with her skis in her arms. She looked up at Lou Ziling.
At that moment, Lou Ziling felt sorry for her.
However, his heart was cold and hard. He didnt even want to spend another day with her.
You will have new friends.
During the past few days, Jing Xi had met many skiing enthusiasts. As long as she wanted to, there would be many people who would like to ski with her.
Lou Zilings tone was calm. Although he wasnt interested in running apany, it was his responsibility and the support of his family. The development of thepany was the most important.
He had already been dyed here for too long!
Lou Mingyang didnt let him return to China. He even let Lou ruofei, who didnt know anything about operation and management, help out in thepany to deal with all kinds of chores.
Lou ruofeis health wasnt good to begin with. Her headache would act up from time to time. She needed to rest and recuperate. She couldnt worry or tire herself out.
The Lou family couldnt live without him. His sister needed him too, so he had to go back.
As for Jing Xi, without him, she might just be a little ufortable, but she would be fine in a few days. There would be more and more excellent people around her, apanying her to travel all over North America.
Lou Ziling quickly left the ski resort, leaving Jing Xi alone in the snow.
The sun was setting, and the bodyguard had appeared behind Jing Xi. He whispered,Miss, its getting dark. We should go back.
Lou Ziling is leaving. Do you think his heart is made of stone?
The bodyguard fell silent after hearing Jing Xis words.
He already knew this would be the result two days ago.
Lou Ziling was a calm andposed person. He was rarely affected by his emotions. He always kept his distance from Jing Xi and would never open his heart to her.
The bodyguard was not good with words, so he did not know how tofort Jing Xi.
My dad hasnt done anything yet. He just made the business of the Lou family busier, but hes leaving immediately. In the future, if the Lou family has a bigger backing, will Lou Ziling not even bother to talk to me?
I thought that even if Lou Ziling was leaving, he would at least stay with me for two more days. When I was skiing, I even made a few mistakes on purpose and asked him to correct me so that he could teach me more. Am I stupid? How can I forget the lesson from the horse riding incident?
Jing Xi sat in the snow with her arms around her knees and sighed.I want to grow up.

Lou Ziling left on a ne. He thought that Jing Xi was still a child and would only be ufortable for a few days. What he didnt know was that Jing Xi had been sad for a long time.
He had left a deep mark in her life, and it was not so easy to erase it.
Shangguan ning could see Jing Xis disappointment when she was video chatting with her.
Xixi, it was moms suggestion to make Lou Ziling leave you. Did I do something wrong? If you like him, then we can let him go back to apany you, okay?
You did nothing wrong, mom. Jing Xi shook her head.I need some time to calm down.
It was Lou Zilings own decision to return to China. It had nothing to do with anyone else.
Xixi, why dont youe back? Lou Ziling is in the country, and so are you. You might see each other more often.
Shangguan ning had experienced it before. She felt that Jing Xi was in her puberty and might not be able to distinguish her own feelings. Maybe she would find that Jing Xi was not as good as she had thought she was after some time apart.
Jing Xi shook her head.Its fine. I still have a lot of things to learn here. I wont go back now. Theres no point in going back. Hell still ignore me.
On the day Lou Ziling left, she did want to follow her back to A city.
But now, even if she was upset, she knew what she should and shouldnt do.
After turning off the video chat, Jing Xiy in bed and began to read all kinds of information about the Lou family, especially the operating status of the Lou familyspany.
Under Jing Yichens influence, Jing Xi knew more than most adults, even though she was only fourteen.
Shangguan ning had often brought her to meetings at Liyu Science & Technology when she was little, so Jing Xi was familiar with some of the technical terms.
The Lou familyspany couldnt bepared with Jingsheng enterprise, but it was close to Liyu Science and Technology.
Jing Xi had been studying this for days. Whenever she had any questions, she would ask Jing Yichen and she had learned a lot.
There were very few photos and introductions about Lou Ziling on the inte. Most of them were about Lou Zirong.
In the past, Lou Zirong was the heir of the Lou family. He had always been the focus of publicity to establish his image as an elite in the business world.
Even now, many people still supported Lou Zirong.
Therefore, the process of Lou Mingyang and Lou Ziling taking over the Lou family was not smooth. Even now, there were still some veterans in thepany who opposed Lou Mingyang taking over thepany.
Lou Ziling was unsociable and cold. He didnt even like to talk to Jing Xi, let alone others.
Therefore, his situation in thepany was a little bad.
If family Jing had not supported family Lou again and Lou Mingyang had not gotten arge order from Jingsheng enterprise, they would not have been able to control the real power of thepany.
Jing Xi gradually understood her value to the Lou family.
Jing Yichen had no weakness, except for her.
She was the only breakthrough point.
The truth was a little cruel, and Jing Xi felt a little sad. She felt cold and was not as heartless as before.
She didnt want to be her fathers weakness. She had always wanted to be strong and be a protector instead of always being protected.
She worked even harder in the physical training that Jing Yichen had arranged for her.
As for the other courses, Jing Xi was also learning more and more.
She was well-read, and after the new year, she was admitted to a well-known University in the United States at the age of 15.
She hid her identity and age and made a few friends.
She still chased after handsome guys, and she would soon fall for the new and get tired of the old. Today, because of a certain moment, she thought that he was very handsome, but a few dayster, for various reasons, she would not think that he was handsome anymore.
For a long time, she had not met anyone as cold and unsociable as Lou Ziling.
Everyone was basically a normal person. They loved to talk,ugh, and y.
Of course, thanks to Jing Xis outstanding appearance, there were many people who pursued her.
She received gifts every day, but Jing Xi just smiled at them.
The person that she hoped the most to give her a present had never given her anything before. Perhaps, he had already forgotten about her!
During Jing Xis school days, Ji moxuan would often fly over to visit her, apany her to shop and eat. They got along in a rxed and harmonious manner.
To Jing Xi, he was the one who had pursued her the most diligently and for the longest time.
Moreover, he knew her identity and did not pursue her because of her identity.
When Ji moxuan was with her, Jing Xi would feel that time passed very quickly and she would feel very rxed. She was quite weing of Ji moxuans presence.
She was a little confused. She didnt know if she really liked someone.
They were of equal social status and Ji mo Xuans character, ability, and appearance were not bad. Although he would asionally act like a child, he was not old to begin with and it was normal for him to act like a child.
Didnt she often act like a child and fool around?
It was the weekend, and Ji moxuan had brought gifts to visit Jing Xi again.
The gift was a custom-made ne in a cute style that Ji moxuan had designed himself.
In addition to the ne, he also bought arge bouquet of fresh roses after getting off the ne and went to Jing Xis house.
As soon as Jing Xi opened the door, she was greeted by beautiful flowers.
Xixi, this is for you! Ive wanted to buy it for you for a long time!
Ji moxuan had given many things before, but he had never given her red roses.
Jing Xi was a little confused, but she didnt take it to heart. She epted it with a smile and invited Ji moxuan in.
The servant prepared some fruits and desserts, ced them on the coffee table in the living room, and then left with a smile.
Mo Xuan, why are you here again! Your father doesnt despise you for not doing your proper job when youre out so frequently! Youre going to take over family Jis enterprise in the future. If you dont hurry up and learn now, youll beughed at by the shareholders in the future!
Ji moxuanughed brightly,my dad said thating to your ce is the most proper job! You dont even know how much he likes you. I even suspect that youre his biological daughter and Im not his biological son!
Ji Bo was indeed good to Jing Xi, but it was not as exaggerated as what Ji moxuan had said. Jing Xi smiled and said,Whether youre my son or not, well know when we see if uncle Ji will give you thepany in the future!
Well, thats not for sure. If Im a good-for-nothing, my dad definitely wont let me take over, so as not to ruin his efforts.
Ji moxuan had been living in a good environment since he was young. His parents doted on him and his friends supported him. His life had always been smooth and he had never encountered any setbacks.
Furthermore, he was still young and did not have much ambition for power and money.
He really wanted to take over family Jis enterprise because of his ambition that had just emerged this year.
He was afraid that if he had nothing, the Jing family would not agree to let Jing Xi marry him.
Chapter 1428
Chapter 1428: Be my girlfriend!
Trantor: 549690339
Of course, the word good-for-nothing would not appear in Ji moxuans words. He had received a good education and had a specialized teacher in charge of guiding his life and thoughts to ensure that he would be a qualified sessor in the future.
Who else could family Jis enterprise be given to if not Ji moxuan?
The other members of the Ji family were not even one-tenth of Ji moxuan.
Jing Xi did not take Ji moxuans words seriously, because even she thought that Ji moxuan was very outstanding.
He was outstanding in all aspects, but he was not perfect. However, he had no obvious weaknesses or ws.
Although he wasnt proficient in everything, he knew a little about everything. When others mentioned it, he could respond.
For example, skiing. As long as Jing Xi mentioned it, Ji moxuan could also tell her some things to take note of and terms for skiing. He could even help her pick out a skis andin about her failure when she first learned how to ski.
Ji moxuan took out the ne he had brought, opened the box, and handed it to Jing Xi.
This is for you. Do you like it?
There are more?
Of course, how can I just give you a bunch of flowers!
Jing Xi looked at the exquisite ne and the dazzling Ruby on it. She smiled and said,You know that I dont like to wear these things, so why did you still give them to me? This kind of ne will be easily stolen.
She had already rejected Ji moxuans gifts many times, but to no avail. On the contrary, he had given her more and more, and the more expensive they were.
Under the influence of Shangguan ning, Jing Xi had never been interested in jewelry.
Besides, she was only fifteen years old and didnt need any jewelry. Besides the watch that Jing Yichen had given her, Jing Xi didnt have any extra essories on her.
Ji moxuans expression was somewhat serious and his tone was extremely gentle,Xixi, I designed this ne for you. Dont reject me, okay? she said.
Jing Xi was at a loss for words. Ever since she had met Ji moxuan, he had always been concerned about her. He was as gentle as Jade and his temper was unbelievably good.
Jing Xi was silent for a moment, but she still kept the ne.
She was not short of money, and she could have as much jewelry as she wanted.
It was just a ne, and she had even taken his hairpin. What else could she not take?
At most, she would give Ji moxuan an even more valuable gift.
Jing Xi ced the ne on the table but did not open it. Ji moxuan was very happy to see her ept it. Xixi, what do you think of me?
Its not bad, why are you asking? Youre an influential figure in A city, the top ten young men!
Xixi, I really like you. Be my girlfriend!
Jing Xi had been confessed to too many times during this period of time. Hearing Ji moxuans confession now, she was very calm. Were still too young. Lets talk about it when we grow up!
She didnt hate Ji moxuan, but she didnt like him to the extent that she wanted to be his girlfriend.
No wonder Ji moxuan had specially given her bright red roses today. So it was to confess his love!
Youre not young anymore. Arent many of your ssmates in love? We can develop slowly and grow up together as childhood sweethearts. When we reach the age where we can get married, Ill marry you!
In fact, Ji moxuan had always wanted to confess to Jing Xi. He hoped that he could have Jing Xi from now on, in case she was snatched away by others.
Every time he came here, he would feel that there were too many people pursuing Jing Xi!
They didnt even know Jing Xis identity, and they were already chasing her like crazy. If they knew, there would be even more people chasing after her.
It was inevitable that Ji moxuan would feel a sense of crisis and anxiety.
Jing Xiughed.Mo Xuan, lets just be friends. You cant be a couple. I have a lot of shorings. You just dont know them. Im quite good at getting over the old and liking the new, and I always like to look at handsome guys. Actually, only friendsst the longest.
Im not handsome enough?
No, hes quite handsome!
Then why dont you like me?
Ji moxuan looked at Jing Xi with anticipation, but Jing Xi was stumped.
Even she could not answer this question herself. She could not exin why she did not like Ji moxuan. He was clearly a good person.
He was considerate and never lost his temper. He had a warm and sunny personality and was a typical gentleman.
He was very popr and had many friends. Even in America, he had many friends. Every time he came, he seemed to be able to make new friends,pletely different from a certain unsociable and cold person.
Perhaps, it was because Ji moxuan was too popr. He treated everyone pretty well and was a generous person. It was hard to tell who he liked or disliked.
Jing Xi didnt even feel that he treated her differently from others.
Jing Xi didnt give a reason. Ji moxuan was sad.You cant even give me a reason why you dont like me, so how can you be so sure that you dont like me? I think were very suitable for each other, and well be very happy in the future!
Jing Xi smiled but did not say anything. She was also a little confused.
When she was young, she always liked to shout I want to marry you. When she saw her idol, she would shout I want to marry you without hesitation. When she grew up, she didnt want to get married anymore.
When she was a child, she had hoped that someone would be willing to marry her, but unfortunately, there was no one. There was not even anyone who coaxed her to marry her.
This year, there were many people who wanted to marry her, but she didnt know why she couldnt be happy.
Ji moxuan was only sad for a while after his failed confession. He quickly started to chat andugh with Jing Xi again. His expression did not change because of Jing Xis rejection.
In the afternoon, the two of them even went out to have a big meal together, and Ji moxuan even made fun of himself.
No, my confession failed today, and my young heart has been hurt ten thousand times. This meal must be on you!
No problem. You can eat more pig hearts, chicken hearts, and the like!
Im not a pig or a chicken. Theres no point in eating their hearts! Quick, praise me and list my strengths in detail to make up for the trauma in my heart!
Do you really want to hear meplimenting someone who isnt good at it?
Ji moxuan nodded his head vigorously.I want to hear it, I want to hear it. Its just that Im not good at it, so I need to practice more. I can let you use it as practice. Praise me however you like, I dont mind at all!
Hmm Youre quite thick-skinned.
Ji moxuan was still smiling after Jing Xi said this. He waited for a long time, but Jing Xi did not continue to speak. He could not help but be surprised.Are you done?
Yeah, Im done praising him!
You call this apliment? Youre mocking me! No, this doesnt count. Praise him again!
Uh, your eyshes are quite long!
Ji moxuan was about to cry,what kind of merit is this! Im a man, why would I need such long eyshes? only women would like long eyshes. Why would they like to use mascara?
HmmYou have good taste, you have good taste!
Ji moxuan stroked his chin.This sentence is rather pertinent.
Yeah, otherwise why would he admire me so much?
Chapter 1429
Chapter 1429: Born in an aristocratic family
Trantor: 549690339
Ji moxuanughed.I was wondering why I mentioned one of my strengths. So you were actually praising yourself!
Jing Xi blinked, held her delicate chin, and smiled at Ji moxuan.Of course, who wouldnt praise a pretty and cheerful little cutie like me? Ive already been very reserved with my praise!
The Jing Xi in front of him was indeed very cute. It was a kind of cuteness that Ji moxuan had never seen in any other girl.
She had inherited her parents good looks. She was the clear and beautiful type, but every time she smiled, she would appear a little delicate and charming, which diluted the coldness on her body and made people have a good impression of her.
She had a high EQ and even higher IQ. She learned everything quickly and could deal with any situation with ease.
Furthermore, all the temptations from the outside world had no effect on her.
Because she didntck anything. She could make all the choices ording to her heart. She didnt need to cater to her or bow down.
Ji moxuan grew up in the Ji family, which had a huge family and business behind it. He had seen too many girls sell their bodies and souls for money and benefits.
Whenever he gave a girl a farewell gift, he would easily get a kiss, an intimate hug, and even more.
Only Jing Xi, when she gave her a gift, she would politely refuse. If she couldnt refuse, she would definitely give her a gift that was more valuable than the gift.
This was a true daughter of an influential family. Her upbringing and etiquette were veryprehensive.
She seemed to be a little sloppy about everything, but in fact, she had never made a mistake in terms of human rtionships and etiquette.
After lunch, Ji moxuan took Jing Xi out to y.
Jing Xi had been to all the tourist attractions here, so Ji moxuan took her to an amusement park with many children.
Jing Xis eyes sparkled with excitement.You dont say. Ive been to the amusement park a few times when I was young, but I havent been here in the past two years!
Ji moxuan was also looking forward to it. It seems like I havent been here in a long time. My dad doesnt allow me to y this game!
There were all kinds of hydrogen balloons sold at the entrance of the amusement park. Ji moxuan went up and bought two. He gave a Minnie one to Jing Xi and took a Mickey One for himself. He smiled as he walked in.
Both of them were in high spirits. Jing Xi was only fifteen years old. Although Ji moxuan looked tall and big, he was only a seventeen-year-old boy. They were both at the age where they loved to y.
Roller coasters, Ferris wheels, pirate ships, trampolines, bumper cars, haunted houses
The two of them were having a great time. When they entered the haunted house, they were not afraid of the ghosts, but instead, they were trying to scare the person who was pretending to be the ghost.
In the evening, the two of them even watched a fireworks show together.
It had been a long time since Jing Xi was as happy as she was today. She turned to look at Ji moxuan, who was even more excited than she was. She suddenly felt that it might be a good idea to live with Ji moxuan in the future.
At least his life would not be boring. He was so active and knew how to find fun.
After leaving the amusement park, Ji moxuan even specially took a taxi to send Jing Xi home before going to the hotel to rest.
Although Jing Xis fighting power did not require a ride, Ji moxuan was still worried about her. He would always ignore the bodyguards who came to pick her up and send her home personally.
The next day, Ji moxuan brought Jing Xi to a private party.
The location was a private Manor in the suburbs. The manor was well-maintained and spotless, exuding a fresh and natural aura amidst the luxury.
The owner of the manor had a good personal rtionship with Ji Bo and was also a rich entrepreneur. Today was his sons 18th birthday and he had invited many famous people to celebrate with him.
Ji moxuan was Ji Bos only son, so he was naturally invited.
Initially, Ji moxuan did not intend to attend. However, he happened to be in America, so it would not make sense if he did not attend.
It was naturally best to have a femalepanion at a party. Going alone always felt like something was missing.
Therefore, Ji moxuan had brought Jing Xi along.
Jing Xi usually didnt refuse the daily social activities. Although she wasnt a fan of parties, she wouldntpletely shut herself out.
Especially since it was Ji moxuans invitation, she would still give him face.
At noon, Ji moxuan and the driver arrived at Jing Xis residence. The driver waited outside while Ji moxuan went in to look for Jing Xi.
The servant opened the door for Ji moxuan. He sat on the sofa and waited for a few minutes before Jing Xi came out of the bedroom.
Her stylist and makeup artist also came out with her.
The makeup artist was an American, and she praised in American English,My princess, youre too beautiful!
Ji moxuan was slightly stunned. He looked at Jing Xi in front of him and eximed just like the makeup artist,Its really beautiful!
It was the first time he had seen Jing Xi in an evening dress, and it was also the first time he had seen her put on makeup.
Usually, she would dress like an ordinary student, without any makeup.
Her evening dress was a light purple one-shoulder dress with a purple flower on the shoulder. It was elegant and exuded a little girls cuteness. The dress was slim, and the hem fell to the ground. The texture was excellent.
Purple clothes were usually difficult to pull off, but this dress looked perfect on Jing Xi.
The gown outlined her beautiful figure, her slender waist, her long legs, and her youthful aura.
She was wearing bright silver high heels that she rarely wore, and her long hair was draped over her shoulders. She didnt look like she was 15, but more like she was 18.
Ji moxuan stood up and walked over to Jing Xi with a smile. He extended his arm to her.Lets go, Princess. Youre so beautiful, I have to take good care of you today!
Jing Xi smiled brightly and put her hand on Ji moxuans arm. She teased,You look especially handsome today. It seems that I didnt put much effort into dressing up when I met you in the past. Will there be a lot of beautiful women at the party today dressed like this?
Ji moxuan didnt like to wear suits usually. He wore more sportswear and casual clothes. He would only dress up properly for formal asions.
He led Jing Xi out of the room and said with a smile,There will definitely be a lot of pretty girls, but I dont think they will be too happy today.
Why?
Because the people Im bringing with me are prettier than them. Theyll all be jealous of you.
Ji moxuan had attended many banquets and parties, be it domestic or foreign, serious or lively. However, he had never been as full of anticipation as he was today.
In the past, the femalepanions he had brought along were all very beautiful, and all of them were beautiful women.
Especially Wu Wei, who was the campus Belle of the University. She had a pure face and a more voluptuous figure than Jing Xi, who was 15 years old.
However, ones temperament was something that was born with, and it also needed constant nurturing.
Even if Jing Xi didnt say anything and just stood there quietly, no one dared to look down on her.
Anyone with a good eye would know that she was from an aristocratic family.
Chapter 1430
Chapter 1430: Two-time
Trantor: 549690339
When the two of them arrived, there were already many people at the party.
Although it was called a birthday party, it was more like a high-end banquet. No one pranked, no one screamed crazily. The people who came all maintained their manners, smiling but elegant and reserved.
The people who came were celebrities from all walks of life, and most of them were young people.
When Jing Xi and Ji moxuan arrived, they attracted a lot of attention.
Thebination of a handsome man and a beautiful woman had a different temperament, and they were personally weed by the party host, so they quickly became the focus.
Mo Xuan? Youve grown taller again, I almost cant recognize you! Hes so handsome that he killed your dad on the beach!
Uncle Luo, I havent seen you for two years, and you look even younger! Its the second time my dad was pped on the beach!
They had not seen each other for two years, but Ji moxuan and Luo Yi were still able to exchange warm greetings. Their smiles were perfect, and their words were humorous. It was as if they had only not seen each other for two days.
Jing Xi didnt know if the Ji family really had a good rtionship with the host, or if it was because Ji moxuan was a person who could instantly close the distance between people.
She suddenly thought of Lou Ziling. He and Ji moxuan were two extremes.
Lou Ziling always had the ability to keep two people apart in an instant.
She had known him for a long time and felt that they were already familiar with each other, even close, but he could always change their rtionship back to its original state with a word or an expression.
After spending so much time together, Jing Xi still felt that everything was back to square one, and they were still strangers.
As for Ji moxuan, on the first day they met, it was as if they had known each other for many years, close and natural.
Luo Yi only said a few words to Ji moxuan, and then he looked at Jing Xi with the eyes of an elder looking at a junior.Whose girl is this? Ive never seen her before! I should be able to recognize this imposing manner! Mo Xuan, this must be your little girlfriend!
Hey, uncle Luo, dont tter me. She hasnt agreed yet! Herst name is Jing. You dont know her, but you must know her father. Hes the one who took a photo of my father on the beach!
His surname was Jing
Luo Yi knew who this extraordinary and beautiful little girl was.
His eyes became gentler, and his smile deepened.So you are the little girl of family Jing. This is the first time I have seen you. Your father has hidden you well.
Jing Xi smiled and said in a clear and melodious voice,Hello, uncle Luo. Im Jing Xi. My dad is afraid that Ill get into trouble again and lose all my assets!
Luo Yi had heard about Jing Xis childhood. The Jing family had paid a lot of money for this little girl, but he had never seen her punished.
That was why it was said that Jing Yichen spoiled his daughter so much that he didnt even bat an eye when his ownpany was blown up.
It was rare to see such a talkative member of the Jing family. The Jing Yichen that Luo Yi knew was a man of ice.
When he met Jing Rui, he was also a little ice block. It was rare for him to meet someone who was more enthusiastic. Luo Yiughed.If I had a daughter as smart and beautiful as you, I would also dote on you and cause you any trouble!
Ji moxuan had known Luo Yi for a very long time. They had known each other since they were very young.
He had never seen Luo Yi being so enthusiastic towards a little girl.
His son Luo Feiyangs girlfriend, Luo Yi, had also always been indifferent. He had never praised her for being smart and beautiful.
An indescribable sense of pride and honor rose in Ji moxuans heart. In the past, when he brought girls to parties and banquets, no one had ever asked him about the girls identities. They were just used as background characters.
Moreover, those in the past really didnt have any status. Even if they were introduced by Ji moxuan, he would only say my friend.
Luo Yi had been in the business world for many years. He had a sharp eye. He must have noticed that Jing Xi was different at a nce. That was why he had asked her about her identity. Otherwise, he would not have even bothered to answer her.
Luo Yi treated Jing Xi warmly and thoughtfully, and he knew his limits well. Even Ji moxuan had benefited from this and felt that his treatment had improved.
Luo Yi and Ji Bo were good friends, so he treated Ji moxuan as if he was his junior and was more casual.
However, Jing Xi was different. She was not a junior of the Luo family, but a distinguished guest.
Luo Yi immediately called his son over. He pointed at Luo Feiyang and said to Jing Xi,This is Feiyang. Hes not good at studying, but hes good at eating, drinking, and having fun. With him around, you guys wont have to worry about not having fun!
Jing Xi still had a decent smile on her face. She nced at Luo Feiyang and did not say anything.
Luo Feiyang, on the other hand, was stunned,Oh my God, shes an absolute beauty! Dad, Im prepared to snatch her from Ji moxuan, what do you think?
Before Luo Yi could say anything, Ji moxuan was already indignant,Go away, you have a lot of girlfriends, who wants you!
Luo Feiyang was just like his name. His personality was a little arrogant and domineering. After being exposed by Ji moxuan, he immediately exposed Ji moxuans weakness,
Youre speaking as if you dont have a girlfriend! Dont think I dont know that you came to the United States so many times to see Wu Wei! Such a ****** beauty, you sent her so far away, just to keep her in your Golden House!
Ji moxuans face froze in an instant!
He had never expected Luo Feiyang to know about this! And he had said it in front of Jing Xi without hesitation!
His eyes were filled with anger. If it wasnt for the fact that this wasnt the right time, he would have really given Luo Feiyang a good beating!
Ji moxuan subconsciously turned his head to look at Jing Xi beside him. Seeing that Jing Xi was still smiling and her expression had not changed at all, he felt a little relieved.
Xixi, dont listen to him. Hes just a friend of mine. Hes been my enemy since we were little!
Jing Xis smile remained as she nodded slightly, indicating that she understood.
Although her face was calm, her heart was not.
Ji moxuan had a girlfriend? And in the United States? A hidden mistress in a Golden House?
Yesterday, Ji moxuan had even given her roses and a ne to confess to her!
What childhood sweethearts? he said he would marry her in the future!
Yo, yo, yo, two-timing, youre having fun!
Jing Xi suddenly found the arrogant Luo Feiyang in front of her pleasing to the eye.
Luo Feiyang wanted to scold him. He and Ji moxuan had been enemies since they were young, but they always ran into each other. Luo Yi and Ji Bo always sent them to the same school. He met Ji moxuan when he was studying in the country, and he also met him when he was studying abroad!
However, when he saw a beautiful woman, his heart would burst with joy. The woman in front of him was the most beautiful and elegant one he had ever seen!
So, his mind waspletely on Jing Xi.
Wee to my birthday party, prettydy. Come and y more often in the future. My dad is a very generous person. He can even give you the entire Manor to y with!
Chapter 1431
Chapter 1431: The imperfect him
Trantor: 549690339
When Luo Yi, who was standing at the side, heard his son say that he wanted to give him a Manor, he shivered!
He was usually quite generous. He had never asked about gifts his son gave his girlfriend, but he was not generous enough to give an entire Manor!
This prodigal son didnt know how to earn money, but he knew how to spend it better than anyone else!
Luo Yi shook his head and left with a smile, leaving the space for the young man.
Seeing that his father had left, Luo Feiyang became even more active and shamelessly moved closer to Jing Xi.
Youre called Xixi? Aiya, what a nice name! You can call me yang yang, or Fei Fei, you can call me whatever you like!
Ji moxuan, this hypocrite, must have lied to you a lot, right? Im telling you, Im much better than him. Im more handsome than him, and Im Kinder than him. I saw Wu Wei first, but he snatched her away. Hes not righteous at all!
Where do you go to school? Tomorrow is Monday. Ill drive you! We might even be in the same school!
Luo Feiyang rambled on and on, but Jing Xi didnt respond. He continued to talk. If Luo Yi hadnt pulled him away to cut the birthday cake, he would probably have been able to talk to Jing Xi for the rest of his life.
After Luo Feiyang left, Ji moxuans expression finally looked a little better.
If he had known this would happen, he would not have brought Jing Xi here.
It had been a long time since hest saw Luo Feiyang. Furthermore, it was his 18th birthday today. Ji moxuan thought that he would restrain himself, but he did not expect him to go from bad to worse.
When Luo Feiyang was there, he was talking andughing, so it wasnt awkward. But once he left, Ji moxuan and Jing Xi fell silent.
After a long while, Ji moxuan said in a low voice,Xixi, believe me. I really Like you. Theres no one else.
It doesnt matter if there are other people, Jing Xi said with a smile.Well still be good friends!
There was no anger in her heart, only a slight disappointment.
Yesterday at the amusement park, when they were having a great time, she even felt that living with Ji moxuan for the rest of her life would not be bad!
Fortunately, she had already experienced this kind of disappointment many times and was used to it.
When she was young, she had always wanted to marry a handsome man. Unfortunately, he always had a girlfriend or someone he liked, and he couldnt take anyone else in his eyes.
She had thought that things would change for the better when she grew up, but it seemed that it was still the same. The handsome guys around her would still have girlfriends, and they might not just have one.
Jing Xi lifted the hem of her dress slightly and sat down at a table. As usual, she greeted Ji moxuan,Come and eat something, Im so hungry!
Ji moxuan felt a little sad. He was afraid that Jing Xi would be angry, but if she was not angry, he would not be happy either.
The fact that he wasnt angry only proved that he was really just an ordinary friend in her heart.
Only Wu Wei, who loved him deeply, would be jealous, angry, and cry when she heard that he was close to someone else.
The 15-year-old Jing Xi looked more mature and rational than the 19-year-old Wu Wei. She didnt ask anything andpletely respected his privacy. Or to put it another way, she was like the daughters of those rich families who had been raised in those rich families. She had already be indifferent to those things.
He didnt know if this was a good or bad thing.
Ji moxuan sat beside Jing Xi and ate with her.
He was only silent for a short while, and soon he returned to his usual cheerful and humorous self. He was still talking andughing with Jing Xi, and they were very intimate.
Jing Xi once again sighed. Ji moxuan really had a high EQ and was a master of chatting. No matter how bad the situation was, he could quickly salvage the situation and repair the cracks.
The scenery in the manor was beautiful. The flowers were in full bloom, and the air was filled with the refreshing fragrance of flowers. Unknown butterflies were flying around, and birds were singing happily on the branches. It was somewhat like a paradise.
Most of the guests had arrived and the party had already begun.
In groups of twos and threes, some were toasting and drinking, some were whispering in each others ears, and many had invited their female partners to dance.
Ji moxuan had also invited Jing Xi to dance, but she had refused.
Firstly, she didnt want to dance with someone who already had a girlfriend.
Secondly, she did not know how to dance like this.
Jing Xi had never been interested in dancing, painting, and singing. When she was a child, she had only studied guns and ammunition!
When he grew up a little, he discovered the joy of the world of viruses, and then immersed himself in it.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning had never forced her to learn anything she didnt like. So she could draw, but not dance.
She felt that dancing was an especially meaningless activity.
Why did they all go to dance? was the dessert not good or was the red wine not good?
The atmosphere was getting more and more lively, and more and more men and women were dancing, but Jing Xi was not moved.
With her intelligence, she could actually learn the social dance very quickly. However, she was not interested, so she just sat there.
Ji moxuan didnt dance either. He went over to Luo Feiyangs ce to y dirty.
Luo Feiyang was todays star. He was 18 years old, which meant he was an adult. He was full of himself and was surrounded by many beautiful women. He was smiling so widely that his eyes curved into crescents.
However, the moment Ji mo Xuan left, his expression changed.
Jing Xi watched from afar and couldnt hear what they were saying, but she could tell that Luo Feiyang had been tricked by Ji moxuan.
Jing Xi couldnt help butugh. What a good brother! Ji moxuan didnt even give Luo Feiyang any face on his birthday. It could be seen just how bad the two of them were at odds!
She had thought that Ji moxuan had a good rtionship with everyone!
It turned out that he also had an enemy!
Thats more like it. Ji moxuan, who was too perfect, always made people feel that it was unreal.
From time to time, people came over to chat with Jing Xi, but Jing Xi just sat there with a smile and didnt pay much attention.
The atmosphere was happy and wonderful. Even watching Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang bicker was a joy. Jing Xi was in a good mood, so when people kept nagging in her ear, saying that she was beautiful, she would happily ept it.
When she was young, she thought that she was the most beautiful woman in the world. However, when she grew up, she was not so thick-skinned anymore. If she was really beautiful, why did someone still leave her so coldly?
A cold face shed through Jing Xis mind, and then that face appeared in her line of sight.
She couldnt help but blink her eyes, suspecting that she was hallucinating.
However, even after blinking so many times, the figure was still standing there and had not disappeared.
The chocte bean in Jing Xis hand suddenly fell into the ss of red wine with a soft Dong.
Her voice was so soft that it was drowned out by the happy music in the hall. However, Lou Zilings eyes were fixed on her.
Jing Xi didnt believe that he could hear the voice. Even Jing Zhi, who had extraordinary hearing, might not be able to hear it.
She was sure that he had turned his head to look at her!

Lou Ziling had indeed turned to look at Jing Xi subconsciously.
She was wearing a light purple long dress, her long hair draped over her shoulders. She had a slim figure, her skin was as white as snow, her facial features were beautiful, and her temperament was outstanding.
While everyone else was busy socializing and making friends with the opposite sex at parties, she was the only one sitting quietly in her seat, leisurely enjoying the food and wine.
She was so eye-catching that Lou Ziling saw her the moment she came in.
Lou Ziling recognized her at first nce.
She seemed to have grown a little taller. She had light makeup on and was wearing a pair of slightly mature stiletto heels. There was an amazing beauty to her every movement.
Ziling?
Lou ruofei saw her brother standing still and couldnt help but call him softly.
Lou Ziling retracted her gaze and continued walking with Lou ruofei.
Jing Xi did not see Lou ruofeis face. She only saw her back. Seeing Lou ruofei holding Lou Zilings arm, Jing Xi suddenly showed a smile that did not have any joy.
Heh, another one with a girlfriend.
Jing Xi looked at the variety of food, but suddenly she could not eat anything.
The music and the happy atmosphere that she had thought was nice seemed to have be dull.
Jing Xi stood up, lifted her dress slightly, and slowly walked out of the hall.
Outside the hall, it was a sea of brilliant purple and red. Looking into the distance, behind the sea of flowers, there was a Green Lake and soft weeping willows.
Jing Xi picked up a bunch of lcs and strolled around the manor.
asionally, there would be young couples who came to the party and walked hand in hand. When their love reached the depths, they would kiss intimately in the flowers. They didnt look old, but they were all in love.
North America was much more open than China, and there were many 15 C 16-year-olds who were in love openly.
Jing Xi pondered as she walked. Should she also find someone to fall in love with?
But who would be the most suitable person?
Ji moxuan probably couldn t. If what Luo Feiyang said was true, then he already had a girlfriend. Jing Xi couldnt ept that this person was in an ambiguous rtionship with someone else and still in a rtionship with her.
There were a lot of handsome guys at the party today. Jing Xi stopped by theke and thought about which one she should pick to date.
What are you standing here for? do you want to jump into theke?
A voice came from behind Jing Xi. She turned around and saw a handsome figure.
Lou Ziling!
Theke wont drown me, Jing Xi said calmly.
She was ying with the lc in her hand. When she saw that there was no one beside Lou Ziling, she subconsciously asked,Wheres your girlfriend?
Lou Ziling was stunned. After thinking for a while, he realized that Jing Xi must have misunderstood.
Today, he came with Lou ruofei and many people had misunderstood.
I dont have a girlfriend. The one who came with me is my sister. You should have met her before.
Before Lou Ziling met Jing Xi, he had heard Lou ruofei mention Jing Xi. He also knew that Lou ruofei had identally stepped on her once and had speciallye to apologize for it.
Did Jing Xi not recognize Lou ruofei?
Your sister?
Jing Xi was a little stunned. She had not seen the womans face at all just now. She only felt that she had a very good temperament. Just from the back, she could tell that she was a gentle person.
So, she wasnt his girlfriend!
She knew it. With Lou Zilings unsociable and cold personality, no woman would be able to get along with him.
She would die from the cold if she was with him.
My sister was invited here by Luo Feiyangs cousin, Luo Feifei. Shell be engaged to Luo Feifei next month.
Lou Ziling exined briefly. Even if he didnt tell her, Jing Xi would find out soon enough. The Lou family had already told Jing Yichen about it.
He exined all this to Jing Xi because he hade to the United States again because he had something to do.
Jing Xis expression quickly returned to normal and she said,Congrattions to your sister!
Yes.
Lou Ziling replied indifferently and said,I saw that Ji moxuan was looking for you everywhere in the hall just now. Go back!
It seems like his battle with Luo Feiyang is over, Jing Xi said with a smile.I just dont know who won. Do you know the result?
It should be a draw. However, Luo Feiyang has many girlfriends so hes jealous. Ji moxuan has few girlfriends and they werent around. Luo Feiyangs attack didnt cause any substantial damage to Ji moxuan.
You know that Ji moxuan has a girlfriend? Jing Xi raised her eyebrows.
I met him once before, Lou Ziling answered after a moment of silence.
Then why didnt you tell me? Jing Xi asked unhappily. It turns out that all of you knew about it, and I was the only one who was kept in the dark! If I fall in love with Ji moxuan, then you can watch me fight with another woman for her affection, right?
Lou Ziling knew about it! And he didnt even remind her!
Jing Xis heart turned cold.
She had been trying her best to help Lou Ziling and to speak up for him in front of Jing Yichen. When he was in the United States, she had also been helping him in secret so that his business negotiations could go smoothly.
She would only move to a new city after she had excavated most of the resources in the city.
However, Lou Zilings heart was still cold and indifferent!
Jing Xis face turned cold. She looked at Lou Ziling as if she was a stranger.Lou Ziling, do you hate me?
This was the first time Lou Ziling had seen Jing Xi angry.
Her expression was calm, but one could feel the anger in the depths of her heart.
His gaze was too distant and cold. Lou Ziling didnt know why, but she felt a stab in her heart and it hurt.
I dont hate you, and Im not trying to hide it from you. I just happened to see Ji moxuan eating with a girl at a restaurant once. He said that she was his cousin, and I judged that she was not telling the truth from some small details. That girl should be his girlfriend.
Lou Ziling rarely spoke long sentences at once, and he had never bothered to exin his actions to others.
But now, his exnations were all subconscious.
He did not want to see Jing Xi like this.
When Jing Xi saw Lou Ziling again, she had a lot to say to him. She wanted to scold him for being ungrateful and then despise his strange temper.
But now, she was not even in the mood to scold Lou Ziling.
If Lou Ziling had taken her seriously, he would have told her about Ji moxuan.
Lou Ziling must know why Ji moxuan always hung out with her. He knew that Ji moxuan was pursuing her but he did not remind her that Ji moxuan had an intimate rtionship with another girl.
Lou Ziling, dont ever appear in front of me again!
Chapter 1433
Chapter 1433: Luo Feiyang, you again!
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi turned around and left.
Lou Ziling grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
Are you angry?
Let go of me, Jing Xi said.Im wearing a dress today. Its not convenient for me to hit you.
Lou Ziling was silent for a moment before she said softly,Yes, its very beautiful.
She was so beautiful that people couldnt take their eyes off her.
What did you say? Jing Xi thought she had misheard.
I thought that Ji moxuans matter was just a small matter that wasnt worth mentioning, so I didnt take it to heart. If I didnt meet him today, I wouldnt have thought of that matter.
Im not asking about that. Im asking you what you just said!
Lou Zilings cold face suddenly showed a faint and warm smile.Its fine as long as youre not angry.
This was the first time Jing Xi had seen him smile after knowing him for so long, and she could not help but be a little stunned.
Lou Ziling had always been a loner. He was also a little conceited and had a high IQ. He was bored with all kinds of interesting things.
Jing Xi tried to make himugh and tell him all kinds of jokes, but Lou Ziling didnt find them funny. Jing Xi was always the only one who couldnt stopughing.
Lou Zilings eyes were filled with helplessness.
So he could smile!
It was a pity that his smile had disappeared too quickly.
Lou Ziling, smile again.
Why? Lou Ziling was confused.
I want to see it!
Lou Zilings dark eyes showed a helpless look. He let go of Jing Xis arm and looked at her still childish face. He said in a child-like tone,
Dont mess around. Lets go back. Its not safe to stand by theke alone.
Jing Xi wanted to say that she was safe, but before she could say anything, Ji moxuan ran over quickly.Xixi, so youre here. Ive been looking for you, and I thought youd left!
He turned to Lou Ziling and said with a smile,I didnt expect to see you again! I just heard that your sister is going to be engaged to Luo feijue soon. Theyre a perfect match. Congrattions in advance!
Lou Ziling nodded slightly in response.
He didnt even give her a simple thank you, so Ji moxuan couldnt help but frown.
This was the third time they had met. He didnt pay much attention to Lou Ziling the first two times. Today, he realized that Lou Ziling was so cold and arrogant!
Lou Ziling only said three words in the three meetings. And he was asking for his name, in order to confirm his identity!
Ji moxuan ignored Lou Ziling. In his eyes, the Lou family was just an ordinary small family. His personality was more gentle and he would not deliberately find trouble with them. However, he was definitely not a kind person.
Ji moxuan stepped forward and pulled Jing Xi back.Xixi, lets go. Im worried about youing out alone. Remember to call me next time. I have a few friends over there, Id like to introduce them to you.
Jing Xi wanted to refuse, but Ji moxuan saw through her and said,Dont reject me, or Ill lose face in front of them. I said we were the best and you were the most beautiful! You have to go over and let them see what true beauty is!
Jing Xi was helpless. Since Ji moxuan had already put it this way, she had no choice but to follow him.
Lou Ziling stood by theke and frowned as she watched Ji moxuan pull Jing Xi away.
It seemed that Jing Xi and Ji moxuan had a good rtionship.
It was obvious that Ji moxuan was pursuing Jing Xi. No wonder Jing Xi was angry at him for not telling her about Ji moxuans girlfriend.
The party didnt end until veryte at night. Ji moxuan sent Jing Xi home and then asked the driver to take him to the hotel.
Ji moxuan had already forgotten about his chance encounter with Lou Ziling. He did not pay much attention to it. On the other hand, Luo Feiyang gave him a terrible headache.
Luo Feiyang knew a lot about him. Today, Luo Feiyang even shamelessly asked for Jing Xis contact information, saying that he was going to pursue her officially and that they should keep in touch in the future.
Ji moxuan was very worried that Luo Feiyang would say something that would not be beneficial to him.
When they returned to the hotel, Ji moxuan opened the door and found Wu Wei sitting inside!
Ji moxuans face immediately darkened.Who asked you toe? How did you get in?
Wu Wei ignored his gloomy face and cried into his arms,You really dide to United States, but why didnt youe to me this time? If Feiyang didnt tell me you were here, I wouldnt have known anything!
Luo Feiyang, you again!
Youre really busy with your birthday! He actually had the time to call Wu Wei, find the hotel he was staying at, and send him directly!
Ji moxuan was so angry that his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys were all in pain. He wanted nothing more than to charge back to the manor and give Luo Feiyang a good beating!
Ji moxuan pushed Wu Wei away and his expression was unprecedentedly cold.I told you, we broke up! Thest few times I went to see you, it was also because you said that someone was bullying you. I sent you here, so I couldnt just sit by and do nothing. Wu Wei, you always know when to advance and when to retreat. This time, you overstepped your boundaries!
Wu Wei also knew that she had crossed the line. She had always been low-key and patient. Ji moxuan didnt disclose her identity to the public, but she had also gently said that it was fine.
She didnt fight for it and was almost willing to be invisible.
This was not because she was magnanimous, but because she knew what kind of woman Ji moxuan liked. She knew that even if she did not reveal her identity, no one would be able to threaten her position!
But now, everything had changed!
Wu Wei was pushed away by Ji moxuan, but he quickly hugged his arm and refused to let go.
Her tears fell like a broken string of beads, drenching Ji moxuans expensive suit.I dont want to break up with you. Feiyang said that youve fallen for another girl. Im in so much pain that I couldnt help bute to you!
A beauty was indeed a beauty. Even when she was crying, she was still very beautiful, making people feel pity for her.
In Ji moxuans heart, Wu Wei had always been a sensible but weak girl. She was obviously two years older than him, but in fact, her mental age seemed to be younger than Jing Xi s.
No matter what happened, she would always panic and seek his help.
Jing Xi was theplete opposite of her. She was always calm and never asked him for help.
Ji mo Xuan sighed and his expression softened.
He reached out to wipe Wu Weis tears and gently said,Dont cry. If you have any problems in the future, you can still look for me. I wont leave you alone. However, you must inform me next time and cante to my residence without my permission.
Wu Wei raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Ji moxuan with hope.Youre not breaking up with me?
No, weve already broken up! Ive told you this a long time ago!
You dont want me anymore just because my family is poor and penniless, right?
Wu Wei cried as he questioned Ji moxuan, and his voice suddenly became a little sharp,Didnt you say that I was beautiful? why did you have a change of heart? Its all because of the money!
Chapter 1434
Chapter 1434: Crazy
Trantor: 549690339
Li Weis beautiful face looked a little ferocious because she lost control of her emotions.
This was something that Ji moxuan had never seen before.
She had always been an understanding person. Although she liked to throw tantrums and get jealous, she had controlled herself very well in the past. She would not make people hate her, but she would not make people ignore her.
The current Wu Wei made Ji moxuan feel a little unfamiliar.
It has nothing to do with money. I knew her identity and knew that her familys wealth was above that of the Ji family s, but I didnt n to date her. I only decided to date her after I got to know her.
Although Ji moxuan was indeed satisfied with Jing Xis family background, what he valued more was Jing Xis foresight, sagacity, and bearing as a daughter of an aristocratic family.
These were all things that Wu Wei, who had an empty face, couldntpare with.
Moreover, Jing Xis performance at the party today had further confirmed that the Jing family had been extremely sessful in educating her.
She was polite to everyone, but she would not get close to anyone.
No one could move her with any conditions. She had no enthusiasm for fame, money, and power.
If the person who went today was Wu Wei, she would try her best to be on good terms with those people. Ji moxuan had long known about her desire for money.
Ji moxuan slowly pried away Wu Weis hand and sat on the sofa tiredly.Im tired after a long day. I dont want to exin these things to you, and I dont need to. Ive already given you the money, and five million is my limit. If you want more, youll have to wait until I take over family Jis enterprise.
I dont want money, I only want you!
Wu Wei wiped her tears and changed to a gentle tone,Youre tired, go take a shower and rest! Im not going to argue with you anymore. I was too impulsive today. Please forgive me this once, and I wont be jealous anymore.
Ji moxuan looked at her and didnt say a word. The Wu Wei in front of him was the girl he was familiar with. The moment of ferocity just now seemed to be just an illusion.
He believed that Wu Wei really loved him, so he often indulged her little temper.
Weiwei, Ive never treated you badly. Ill buy you anything you want and Ill always be the first to rush to your side if you need anything. Youd better cut off all contact with Luo Feiyang, or else dont me me for being impolite!
Wu Wei was flustered and aggrieved.I didnt contact him. He took the initiative to contact me! He said.
Youve been keeping his phone number. You dont think I dont know?
Ive always treated him as a normal friend! Mo Xuan, if youre not happy, Ill delete him right now!
Ji moxuan nodded his head,youd Better Block him. Hes not a good person. Itste, you should go. Ill get my assistant to send you back to school.
Wu Wei sat beside Ji moxuan and blocked Luo Feiyangs number in front of him. Then, he hugged his arm and leaned his head on his shoulder, saying softly,I dont want to go. I want to stay with you.
No need
Mo Xuan, this might be thest time well meet. Cant you just let me apany you for one more night? I promise I wont bother you anymore, okay?
In the end, Ji moxuan couldnt resist Wu Weis gentle attack and let her stay in the hotel.
The next day, Jing Xi was woken up by an ear-piercing noise outside just as the sky was getting bright.
Hey hey hey, ah ah ah, test, test
Someone was holding a loudspeaker, shouting loudly and honking non-stop.
Jing Xi, Jing Xi, wake up! Im Luo Feiyang, Im here to pick you up for school. Wake up!
Jing Xi, Jing Xi, I love you. I fell in love with you when I first saw you yesterday. Please give me a chance, let me pursue you!
The Luo family has plenty of money. Ill give you 100 million to y with first! Ji moxuan is not worthy of you, only I, Luo Feiyang, can! You will be my woman in the end, hahaha!
Jing Xi didnt pay much attention to it at first, but she was shocked after that.
Has Luo Feiyang gone crazy?
They had seen high-profile people before, but they had never seen someone as high-profile as him. He was simply asking for a beating!
Jing Xi was woken up by the noise. Hearing Luo Feiyangs shouts outside, she had no choice but to call the bodyguard in.Go chase him away, dont be polite when you attack!
Miss, Im afraid that wont do.
Why? Jing Xi asked in surprise.
The bodyguard smiled bitterly.We dont have enough people. Luo Feiyang brought more than a hundred bodyguards with him today. Theyre all pretty good.
What a lunatic! Jing Xi was furious.
She waved the bodyguard away, got out of bed, changed her clothes, and walked out.
As soon as Luo Feiyang saw hering out, he immediately threw away the sunsses in his hand and jumped out of a luxurious red convertible.
With a fresh rose in his mouth, he walked up to Jing Xi with more than a hundred bodyguards in ck.
He held the flowers in his hand and handed them to Jing Xi.Little Xixi, my Sleeping Beauty, love me. Are you afraid?
Jing Xi didnt take the Rose with Luo Feiyangs saliva on it. She nced at the group of cold-faced bodyguards behind him and asked,Luo Feiyang, youve brought so many people with you. Are you here to tear down my house?
Luo Feiyang looked smug,how could I? I love you so much, why would I tear down your house! Dont worry, these people are not here to deal with you, they are here to deal with Ji moxuan!
To deal with Ji moxuan? why are you howling at my ce so early in the morning?
Ill take you to catch them in the act of adultery! My destructive power alone is not enough, but your destructive power is a thousand times mine! Lets go, lets go, or else we wont be able to catch up with the excitementter! Ill take you to school after watching the show!
As Luo Feiyang spoke, he suddenly pped his forehead as if he had just remembered something. He said loudly,Oh, I forgot to tell you. I just transferred schools. Were in the same school now. Im going the same way!
Youre really busy! Jing Xi shook her head helplessly. I wont go to Ji moxuans ce, you can go by yourself!
How can I do that? its so boring if I go alone! I woke up so early today just to bring you along. If you dont go, Ill keep shouting at you!
Luo Feiyang kept on nagging. When Jing Xi went back to her room to wash up, he was still shouting I love you through the loudspeaker.
With such a ruckus, the neighbors around her were going toin to her!
Half an hourter, Jing Xi got into Luo Feiyangs car with a headache. They sped down the road at high speed, running countless red lights.
Luo Feiyang was in high spirits. He hummed a song and took Jing Xi to a five-star hotel.
He leisurely walked to a room and knocked on the door like crazy,Ji mo Xuan, wake up! Wu Wei is my woman, quickly return her to me!
Chapter 1435
Chapter 1435: The truth will be revealed one day
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang turned around and smiled apologetically at Jing Xi. He whispered,Little Xixi, dont misunderstand me. Youre still the person I love the most. Im just acting. Dont take it seriously!
Of course, Jing Xi didnt take it seriously. She didnt even believe Luo Feiyang when he said he loved her.
She wasnt in the mood to care about the wild and imaginative Luo Feiyang. Right now, she really wanted to know if there was really a woman in Ji moxuans room.
Yesterday, Ji moxuan was still confessing to her both openly and in secret. He took care of her thoughtfully and even went to the extent that when she went out for a while, he would be worried about her safety and look for her everywhere.
If Ji moxuan was so good to her, but at the same time, he came home at night to sleep with someone else, Jing Xi would never dare to trust him again!
The room door opened very quickly. Ji moxuans handsome face was filled with anger. He was about to open his mouth to scold Luo Feiyang, but he saw that besides the bodyguards by Luo Feiyangs side, there was also a slender figure.
The expression on Ji moxuans face instantly stiffened as he called out to her in disbelief,Jing Xi?!
Luo Feiyang pushed him away and wriggled in anxiously.Dont block the door. Wheres Wu Wei?
He entered the room and rummaged through all the ces that could hide people, but he found nothing.
Impossible, my people clearly saw Wu Weiing to your room yesterday and didnt leave the whole night! Ji mo Xuan, where did you hide her?
Ji moxuan couldnt take it anymore and punched Luo Feiyang,Get lost!
Luo Feiyang screamed like a pig being ughtered,bodyguards, protect me! Someone is trying to kill this young master! Hes jealous that Im more handsome than him and that I have more girlfriends than him!
A few bodyguards immediately surrounded Ji moxuan, not allowing him to make another move.
Luo Feiyang, just you wait. Youll be alone one day! It was your birthday yesterday, and I was too embarrassed to make a move. Youre going to get beaten up every day in the future!
Luo Feiyang smoothed out the wrinkles on his clothes and said with a smile,Didnt you book a flight back to China today? Im not going back to China. Do you think you can reach out and hit me from thousands of mountains and rivers away?
Also, dont think that Im afraid of you. Dont think that I cant beat you! The reason why I didnt fight with you is because Im afraid of hurting our Brotherhood. Im one year older than you, and as an older brother, you have to give in to your younger brother!
Luo Feiyang looked like he was asking for a beating. Jing Xi didnt see any Brotherhood between him and Ji moxuan. Instead, it looked like he really had a grudge against Ji moxuan.
However, there was no one else in Ji moxuans room, so Jing Xi felt much more rxed.
Ji moxuan could still be trusted. Luo Feiyangs words were unreliable. That Wu Wei could only be a normal friend of Ji moxuan s, and their rtionship had been exaggerated by Luo Feiyang.
Jing Xi saw that Ji moxuans face had turned white from anger at Luo Feiyang and could not help but exin to him,I was forced toe here. This man was shouting outside my house with a high-pitched loudspeaker, so I had no choice but to follow him to your ce.
Ji moxuan tried to calm himself down. He was extremely d that he had let Wu Wei leave in advance. If he had been a littleter, she would have been caught by Jing Xi!
That damn Luo Feiyang, hes really a ghost that wont leave!
He felt that Luo Feiyang didnt have any good intentions when he lured Wu Wei to the hotel he was staying in!
Xixi, Wu Weizhen and I are just ordinary friends. Dont misunderstand. Wu Wei doesnt like Luo Feiyang, and Luo Feiyang has always been holding a grudge against him. Dont believe what he says!
Ji moxuans words were sincere. If Jing Xi had not heard Lou Ziling talk about Ji moxuans girlfriend, she would have believed him.
However, it was alreadyst year when Lou Ziling met Ji moxuan and his girlfriend for dinner. It was possible that Ji moxuan had broken up with that girl.
Luo Feiyang had originally brought Jing Xi here to catch them in the act of adultery, but now it had deepened Jing Xis trust in Ji moxuan.
Jing Xi sat down on the sofa in the living room with a smile.Lets order breakfast. I was dragged here early in the morning, and I havent eaten anything yet!
What do you want to eat? Ill treat you! The Luo family has plenty of money, just say the word, dont be polite with me!
Luo Feiyang rushed to treat and even turned to look at Ji moxuan,Good brother, call Wu Wei out and lets have breakfast together!
Ji moxuan did not pay any attention to him and only instructed his assistant to order food.
Luo Feiyang scratched his hair and frowned. He still didnt understand where Wu Wei had gone!
He felt very embarrassed that he didnt manage to catch them in the act of adultery.
He would never be able to establish his great image in front of Jing Xi again!
Watching Jing Xi and Ji moxuan eating breakfast together, Luo Feiyangs stomach was rumbling with hunger, and his eyes hurt!
Ji moxuan and Wu Weis rtionship was obviously true, but he had been hiding it from Jing Xi. But now Jing Xi was still eating with Ji moxuan with a bright smile!
Luo Feiyang was furious. He wanted to call Jing Xi an idiot, but he was afraid that she would not believe him if he did, so he could only hold back.
Moreover, he already knew Jing Xis identity, and he knew that he could not scold the little girl in front of him.
Luo Feiyang took a deep breath. His cheeky expression finally disappeared and was reced with a cold face.
He stared at Ji moxuan with a cold gaze and spoke sharply,If you walk along the river often, youll definitely get your shoes wet! You might be able to escape today, but you might not be able to escape in the future! Since you already have Wu Wei, Jing Xi should be mine! This time, I will not give up!
He used to like Wu Wei so much!
He was young and ignorant. He once regarded Wu Wei as his goddess. Even though he liked her, he devoutly protected her and couldnt bear to profane her.
However, one day, he happened to find his good brother holding a goddess in his arms.
The goddesss face was flushed red and her eyes were dazed. She leaned into Ji moxuans embrace and was shy and impatient, her charm overflowing.
His heart was shattered in that instant, and the faith in his heart copsed.
Wu Wei rejected him coldly every time. He thought that she was as pure as ice and as pure as Jade and that she loved him. However, he did not expect her to turn around and throw herself into the arms of Ji moxuan, who was a year younger than him.
At that time, he was 16 years old and Ji moxuan was only 15 years old. The two of them knew nothing about the matters between men and women!
He didnt believe that Ji moxuan could bring any happiness to the 17-year-old Wu Wei!
What Wu Wei was interested in was merely Ji moxuans illustrious family background!
It was ridiculous that he was too stupid. He was afraid that his family background would scare Wu Wei, who was born poor. He was afraid that she would feel inferior, so he never told her his true identity.
Today, Luo Feiyang had seen Wu Weis true face. He had fallen in love countless times, but he had never been truly moved.
He understood that whoever got emotional first would lose!
Jing Xi, if you dont agree to my pursuit, I hope you wont agree to Ji moxuan so soon. Although you failed today, youre so smart. One day, youll find out the truth!

Jing Xi was not used to the serious and cold Luo Feiyang. His personality changed so quickly that it made people wonder if he had a split personality.
She had never agreed to Ji moxuans request. Even if he did not have a girlfriend, it would not be easy to move her heart.
She just felt that Ji moxuan was not a bad person. Being friends was very harmonious andfortable, and they could get along well.
However, Ji moxuan was not only good to her. He was good to everyone, so Jing Xi had never felt that she was special to Ji moxuan.
Luo Feiyang left quickly. He didnt do as he had said before to send Jing Xi to school. Instead, he left the hotel with his bodyguards.
Jing Xi did not stay any longer. She finished her breakfast and said goodbye to Ji moxuan.
Ji moxuan sent Jing Xi downstairs. As soon as they reached the hotel lobby, they were met with an acquaintance.
Lou Ziling carried a long-haired woman and hurried inside. She looked worried, which was rare.
Jing Xi and Ji moxuan stopped in their tracks at the sight of him.
However, Lou Ziling didnt seem to see them. She didnt stop and strode toward the elevator door.
Jing Xi followed him without thinking. Ji moxuan was stunned for a moment, but he followed after her.
In the elevator, Jing Xi looked at the woman in Lou Zilings arms. Her face was buried in Lou Zilings chest, so she couldnt see her face. However, Jing Xis intuition told her that this person was Lou ruofei.
She had known Lou Ziling for a long time, but she had never seen him so nervous about anyone. Except for Jing Xi herself, she had never seen Lou Ziling hold any adult woman.
He was the kind of person who would not even help a girl who had fainted in front of him.
If it werent for his familys predicament, he wouldnt have taken care of Jing Xi, let alone hugged her.
What happened to your sister? Jing Xi asked softly. If her headache is acting up again, we should send her to the hospital!
Lou ruofei had a headache. Jing Xi remembered clearly that she used to have to go to mu Sens ce for acupuncture every month. It was very painful.
Ji moxuan was a little surprised. The person in Lou Zilings arms was his sister. He thought that she was Lou Zilings girlfriend.
Lou Ziling frowned. Her forehead was covered in sweat.
He lowered his head to look at Lou ruofei in his arms and said indifferently,Its no use. All kinds of drugs are no longer effective. I just brought her back from the hospital.
The elevator door opened, and he strode out with Lou ruofei in his arms. When he reached his room, he was about to put Lou ruofei down and take out the key card when Jing Xi said,Ill open the door. Where should I open the door?
Its in the inner pocket of my suit,Lou Ziling replied.
Inner pocket?
Jing Xi reached into Lou Zilings clothes and took out the key card from his chest pocket. She swiped the card and the four of them went in.
Jing Xi and Lou Ziling didnt find anything wrong with her actions, but Ji moxuan was a little surprised.
Were the two of them that close and intimate?
He and Jing Xi did not have that kind of tacit understanding.
Ji moxuan took a look at Lou Ziling and suddenly felt that perhaps she was his biggestpetitor.
Just as Ji moxuan had this thought, he heard Lou Zilings cold voice,You guys can leave. My sister needs to rest.
Ji moxuan had never been treated like this in his entire life. He was about to pull Jing Xi away when Jing Xi sat down on the sofa.Im not leaving.
Lou Ziling turned around and looked at her.I dont have time to take care of you now. Go back!
I dont need your care! Ive never needed it. Dont you know that best?
That wont do either. Youre distracting me. Dont you have ss today?
I dont have to attend sses. I can get an A in those sses with my eyes closed. Why are you in such A hurry to chase me away?
As Ji moxuan listened to the conversation between the two of them, he felt that something was amiss.
Was there something he didnt know?
Whats so good about Lou Ziling?
Other than his handsome face, he didnt seem to have any other good points!
He was cold and arrogant, had a bad temper, kept people at a distance, and came from an ordinary family. No matter how she looked at it, he didnt have anypetitive strength.
Xixi, lets go. Ill take you to ss.
Ji moxuan couldnt help but speak up. He wanted to take Jing Xi away. He didnt like Jing Xi staying with other men.
Mo Xuan, you should go first, Jing Xi said.Dont you have a ne to catch? You dont need to worry about me, just do your own thing.
Ji moxuan had originally nned to return today, but under the current circumstances, how could he leave at ease?
If Jing Xi didnt leave, he wouldnt leave either.
Lou Zilings sister was still unconscious, leaving Lou Ziling and Jing Xi alone. Who knew what would happen?
Last night, he also wanted to refuse Wu Wei, but he couldnt refuse her and let her stay the night.
What if Jing Xi stayed over tonight?
Ji moxuan sat down on the sofa beside Jing Xi and said softly,Since you dont want to go, Ill stay here with you. Anyway, theres nothing much to do back in the country, so I wont be going back today.
Lou Ziling looked at the two of them sitting side by side, refusing to leave. Her already annoyed mood became even more irritated.
If it wasnt for the fact that Lou ruofeis current appearance wasnt suitable for leaving, he might have immediately taken her back to China.
In his eyes, the two people on the sofa were both children. He did not want to pay too much attention to them.
Lou Ziling didnt know how to take care of people. Even the doctors couldnt do anything when Lou ruofei was sick. He didnt know how to take care of her.
Ever since the surgery, Lou ruofeis illness had rarely acted up so seriously. She had appeared at the party yesterday and had been toasted by many people. The Lou family was weak, and Lou ruofei didnt have enough confidence to reject them, so she drank.
Lou Ziling didnt expect Lou ruofei to drink under pressure. She also didnt expect Luo feilie to not know that Lou ruofei couldnt drink. Although he blocked most of the wine for her, the wine of the Luo family elders couldnt be blocked. Lou ruofei drank all of it.
If Lou Ziling had known this would happen, she would not have left her side.
He couldnt drive Jing Xi and Ji moxuan away, and he didnt have enough confidence to offend both of these big families. He could only let them sit in the hotel room.
Lou Ziling closed her eyes. All of this was because the Lou family was not strong enough!
If the Lou family was strong enough, no one would dare to force Lou ruofei to drink!
If the Lou familys power was strong, someone would not have barged into his hotel room and refused to leave today!
Lou Ziling gradually understood why his father, Lou Mingyang, wanted to strengthen the Lou family. He never gave up the opportunity to cooperate with Lou Mingyang.
He looked at his sister, who was lying on the bed with a pained and pale face. He swore in his heart that he would definitely make the Lou family rise and be powerful!

Chapter 1437: Taught by Jing Xi

Although Lou Zilings face was cold most of the time and his expression was the same, Jing Xi knew that he was in an extremely bad mood at the moment.
She watched Lou Ziling wash her hands, rub them and massage the acupuncture points on Lou ruofeis head carefully and patiently. She suddenly realized that it was not that Lou Ziling did not know how to take care of people, but it depended on who the person was.
Jing Xi knew that she should not stay any longer.
She slowly got up and said softly to Ji moxuan, who was beside her,Mo Xuan, lets go!
Ji moxuan was more than happy to hear that, so he immediately followed Jing Xi out.
There were only Lou Ziling and the unconscious Lou ruofei left in the room. There were no outsiders. Lou Ziling lifted the quilt and helped Lou ruofei take off her outer coat so that she could only lie on the bed in a spaghetti strap top.
Lou ruofei had always been dignified and conservative in her dressing style. She would never reveal what she shouldn t.
Therefore, even though she was unconscious, Lou Ziling didnt help her take off her clothes when there were outsiders.
Lou Ziling covered her with the thin quilt again and sat by her bed. She called her name from time to time. She only heaved a sigh of relief when she saw a slight reaction from her.
Lou ruofeis headache was a secondary neurological headache. She had a tumor before. Although the tumor was removed by surgery, the neurological headache still existed and couldnt be cured.
In order to treat her, the Lou family had also spent a huge amount of medical expenses.
Her uncle, Lou mingzhen, had onceined in private that Lou ruofeis life was too valuable.
But Lou Mingyang had no choice. He wanted his daughter to live, so he had to borrow money from Lou mingzhen every time. He even found a more famous doctor through Lou mingzhenswork to treat Lou ruofei.
Not only the doctors in family MUs Hospital, but Lou ruofei had also visited many famous doctors in the country. In the past two years, Lou Mingyang had taken over the Lou familyspany and finally had enough money. He had also let Lou ruofeie to see him many times.
Unfortunately, the human brain was the mostplicated structure. Not all diseases could be figured out, and not all headaches could be cured.
Lou Ziling stayed by Lou ruofeis side for the whole day. Lou ruofei woke up in the evening.
Ziling, did I faint again? she called out to him softly.
Yes, Lou Ziling nodded.
Lou ruofei forced a smile.Fortunately, she didnt faint in the Luo family. Otherwise, Im afraid the engagement would have been canceled.
Lou Ziling was silent for a long time before she said,Sister, dont drink anymore in the future. Also, if you dont like Luo feilie, we can forget about this marriage.
How can I do that? the engagement is such a big deal. How can I go back on my word? Feifei is quite good to me. You dont have to worry.
The Luo family is a big family, and our family cantpare with them for the time being. Youll be bullied if you marry into their family.
Lou Ziling rarely talked to Lou ruofei about this kind of thing. He didnt like to talk or meddle in other peoples business. He had never thought of interfering in Lou ruofeis marriage before.
It was up to her to decide who she would marry. Whether she would be happy or sad in the future, she would have to bear it herself. Adults should take responsibility for their own actions.
But now, Lou Ziling didnt think so.
The main reason why Lou ruofei was willing to marry Luo feicui was because Luo feicui would inherit half of the Luo familys assets in the future and help the Lou family develop.
He did not want his sister to make such a sacrifice.
Lou ruofei understood her brothers concern. She patted Lou Zilings hand and said,Not to the extent of being bullied. Although the two cousins, Luo feilie and Luo Feiyang, are high-profile and domineering, they are very protective of their own people.
With Luo Feifeis qualities, he could have married a more beautiful and more powerful girl, but he chose me instead. He has also cut off all contact with the flowers and nts in the past. This is enough to prove that his feelings for me are real.
Although our family cant bepared to the Luo family, were still considered a family with a strong backing. Theyll give us face.
Her so-called backing was obviously family Jing.
Lou Ziling felt a strong sense of defeat. Did they have to live in the palm of others?
He didnt want to rely on anyone!
He didnt want his sister to rely on family Jing, but he hoped that he could be her backer.
Once, her sister had identally stepped on Jing Xis foot. She was worried that she would anger the Jing family, so she went to the Jing family to apologize to a little girl.
Lou Ziling didnt want her family to live such a lowly life!
Sister, our family is getting stronger. We will be even stronger in the future. You have me!
Lou ruofeis pale face revealed a gratified smile. She said in a rxed tone,Our Ziling has really grown up. She can be someone big sister can rely on! In the past, you didnt know any better. I only spoke a few words to you and you were already impatient. You didnt even speak more than five words a day. Now, you even know how to talk to me.
Lou ruofei felt that Lou Ziling had changed a lot in the past two years. On one hand, it was because he had matured and knew what responsibility was. On the other hand, it waspletely because he had been taught by Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling had changed many of her shorings and habits.
For example, he was a picky eater and refused to eat many kinds of vegetables. He also never drank soup.
His family had told him that he hadnt changed for 20 years, but he had changed after being with Jing Xi for a few months!
Another example was that when she talked to him in the past, he would turn around and leave without even listening.
But now, he only knew to stand there and listen to the other party finish speaking.
He had be more patient and attentive.
No one had the ability to turn Lou Ziling into this. Only Jing Xi could.
Lou ruofei had always thought that Jing Xi was a lively and lovely little girl. She had forgotten that she had stepped on Jing Xi and went to apologize to her a few years ago.
Didnt you go to Jing Xi when you came here? I heard from dad that she really likes you. Its rare for someone to like your entric and unsociable character. You should go and chat with her more. Little girls are actually very easy to coax.
The smile on Lou ruofeis face was very gentle.Im already the kind of person whos hard to woo. However, if Fei Luan is willing to let go of everything to chat with me and give me a bouquet of flowers, Ill be very happy. You have to learn more, or what will you do in the future!
Lou Ziling saw that she was in a better mood and even had the mood to joke about her rtionship with Luo feilie. She knew that her headache had passed.
He got up and poured a cup of hot water for Lou ruofei. He handed it to her and said,Sister, shes still young. Its different.
Lou ruofei smiled and said,if you think shes too young to pursue, you can go after girls your age. Youre already twenty-two years old and havent been in a rtionship. Our mom is worried that you wont be able to find a wife in the future! She doesnt dare to scold you, and youll be angry again if she does!

Lou Ziling had always rejected love and hated all girls. Lou ruofei and the others even suspected that he had a sexual orientation.
Later, they found out that he not only disliked girls, but also boys. He was reclusive and conceited, and he did not interact with anyone. His whole family was on tenterhooks, afraid that he had a mental illness.
Later on, it was proven that Lou Zilings mind was normal. What was abnormal was his IQ.
He was too smart, even a genius. He learned everything very quickly, and his knowledge was far beyond ordinary people, so he felt that others were stupid and could notmunicate at all.
When Lou Ziling was in primary school, Lou Mingyang, who had graduated from a top university, could no longer teach him!
Lou ruofei suspected that Lou Ziling refused to fall in love because she thought that those girls were stupid.
The reason why he could still get along with Jing Xi was probably because Jing Xi was also a person with a high IQ, and the Jing familys education was special. Jing Xi had finished all the courses in junior high and senior high School at a young age. Now that she was going to university, it was actually just for fun.
Well talk about thatter. Right now, thepany needs to be run well, and Ive put all my energy into it.
Lou ruofei didnt dare to persuade him. It wasnt easy to have such an effect today! He wouldnt listen to any more.
In Lou Zilings eyes, love was a messy thing that wasnt worth her time and energy. Lou ruofei didnt know whether tough or cry.
How could people like him find a girlfriend?
Luo feichuo had an important position in the Luo familys corporation and he could find time to date her. He often flew to A city to visit her. It was not that Lou Ziling did not have time, but he was unwilling to make time.
It was already a miracle that he had been able to stay with Jing Xi in the United States for so long.
Lou ruofeis physical condition had improved a lot after a day of rest.
Lou Ziling wanted to bring her back to China, but Lou ruofei didnt agree.
Since were already in the United States, we should go and see Jing Xi! Go buy her something she likes, and well go visit her.
Lou Ziling was stunned. He still wanted to see Jing Xi?
Jing Xi had alreadye to see Lou ruofei!
What are you waiting for? hurry up and buy a gift! What did Jing Xi like? Did she like dolls? Aiya, thats not right. Shes different from those ordinary little girls. She wouldnt like those dolls. Why dont you buy her something to eat? what does she like to eat?
Shes not picky, Lou Ziling replied subconsciously.Shes easy to take care of.
Lou ruofeiughed,you speak as if youre the one who raised her! Its a good thing that girls are not picky about food, but there must be some food that she likes. Lets go and buy some for her. Family Jing doesntck anything, but we chose the food carefully, which represents our sincerity.
In the past, Lou Ziling would not have listened to his sister. But perhaps he had really been taught by Jing Xi. Now, as long as Lou ruofeis request was not too much, he would listen to her.
Just like how Lou Ziling treated Jing Xi, even if he didnt say anything, he would slowly remember all her requests in his heart.
Half an hourter, the siblings arrived at a fruit store.
Lou Ziling bought ten boxes of blueberries and said,Alright, lets go!
Lou ruofei was stunned.No way! Just this? she thought. Thats too little. Lets buy something else. Isnt it popr to make roses with strawberries? We can buy one.
Luo feicui had given Lou ruofei this before and Lou ruofei was amazed for a long time. She couldnt even bear to eat it.
No need, these are enough. She doesnt really like to eat strawberries.
You dont like it? Why would she do that? if you buy her the sweetest one, shell definitely love it!
Do you know her better or do I know her better? Lou Ziling pulled her away.
Alright, Ill listen to you.
Although Lou ruofei felt that it was inappropriate to bring so few things to her house, perhaps geniuses were different. She was not sure about Jing Xis preferences, and Lou Ziling was not a stingy person. If he said that these were enough, then they should be enough.
The brother and sister drove to Jing Xis ce. Jing Xi heard knocking on the door and was stunned for a while when she opened the door. She thought she was seeing things.
Lou ruofei saw that she was obviously surprised and couldnt help but smile.Jing Xi, do you still remember me? Im Lou ruofei, Zilings sister. I came to the United States two days ago and will be back in two days. Im here to see you.
Jing Xi couldnt help but nce at Lou Ziling. Obviously, this man didnt tell Lou ruofei that she had seen her at the party and in the hotel room.
Lou ruofeis temperament was still dignified and elegant. She was ady from a big family. Not only was her smile gentle, but her voice also revealed a strong affinity.
She had always been Jing Xis role model. Lou ruofei had yed a big role in transforming Jing Xi from a troublemaker to an elegant nobledy.
Jing Xi smiled and invited Lou ruofei into the house.Sister ruofei, of course I remember you. Thank you foring to see me!
She only chatted with Lou ruofei and ignored Lou Ziling.
She was still angry with Lou Ziling!
They were clearly siblings born and raised by the same parents, but why were their personalities so different?
Lou ruofei was almost smooth in dealing with people. She took care of other peoples feelings when she spoke and did things. She was gentle, pleasant, polite, and thoughtful.
On the other hand, Lou Ziling was theplete opposite of her. She was cold and hard when she spoke and did things. She could anger her to death with just a few words. She was not cute at all!
Lou ruofei followed Jing Xi into the living room. She looked around the room and quickly retracted her gaze.
Seeing that Lou Ziling didnt have any reaction, she said,Ziling, give Xixi the gift we brought.
Lou Ziling passed the blueberry with a cold expression.
Jing Xi looked at him and knew that Lou ruofei must have forced him to buy these blueberries.
Jing Xi took it and handed it to the maid.
She smiled at Lou ruofei and said,thank you, I love to eat this! Its a delicacy to make cake or ice cream with strawberries!
Lou ruofei couldnt help but look at Lou Ziling. Her eyes were questioning him. Didnt you say that she doesnt like to eat strawberries?
Lou Ziling understood what she meant, but she didnt exin.
It was true that Jing Xi didnt like strawberries, and she was just saying it casually.
When they ate desserts together, if there were blueberries on the dessert, she would be very happy and eat them all.
If there were strawberries on it, she would pick them out for him without a second thought, saying that it would help him get more vitamins.
This girl was very cunning. She had dug a hole for him in front of Lou ruofei so quickly!
Jing Xi and Lou ruofei sat on the sofa, talking andughing. They asked the servants to wash the blueberries, grapes, tea, and snacks that they had brought. They served her warmly.
Sister ruofei, you used to have a headache. Are you feeling better now?
Chapter 1439
Chapter 1439: Lou Zilings embarrassment
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi wanted to ask her if she had recovered after she passed out two days ago, but Lou Ziling didnt mention that she had been there. She had to beat around the bush.
Lou ruofei smiled and said,Im fine. Ive had an operation. Im much better now. Its just that I drank a little at a friends birthday party two days ago and my headache came back, so I took two days off. Otherwise, I would havee to see you early in the morning!
Aiya, sister, if youre not feeling well, you can rest well or give me a call. Ill go and see you!
Jing Xi was really worried that Lou ruofei would faint again. Lou Zilings expression that day was so serious that he looked like he was about to kill someone.
No, no, Im much better. Dont worry, Ive had this for a long time and Im used to it. Ill be fine after some rest.
Lou ruofei was chatting with Jing Xi. When she saw that Lou Ziling was silent, she exined on his behalf,Zilings personality has been like this since she was young. She doesnt like to talk. Dont take it to heart.
I know, Jing Xiughed.I usually say 100 words, but he only replies once, and its always short! Im starting to doubt if Im a Chatterbox!
Thats good. Hes still willing to talk to you. When he was at home, he would ignore everyone who spoke to him! Those who dont know would think that hes our Emperor!
Hes like this at home too?
Jing Xi looked at the silent Lou Ziling in surprise.I thought he was only like this to outsiders! He always ignored me, and I thought I had offended him!
Dont talk about you. I grew up with him, but he doesnt like to talk to me either. It makes me feel like Ive offended him in some way!
After so many years, Lou ruofei had finally found someone she couldin about her brother to!
Ive been having a headache and feeling unwell for the past two days, but he actually knows how to take care of me. I was so touched that I called my mother and told her about it. My mother didnt believe me!
Why? Jing Xi was confused.He doesnt even take care of you and Auntie?
That day, Lou Ziling was very attentive and considerate to Lou ruofei. It didnt seem like she hadnt taken care of her!
Lou ruofei smiled.He doesnt know how to do those things. Speaking of which, Im afraid the person he takes care of the most is you! Now that you know you have to take care of me when Im sick, I might have learned it from you! I would like to thank you on behalf of my parents. Our family cant control him, but youve changed a lot of his habits.
How can this be? It has nothing to do with me. He has never been nice to me!
Jing Xi was smiling, but she was wondering why Lou Ziling had been taking care of her the most. Thats impossible. When did he take care of her?
Lou Zilings face was expressionless as she listened to the two women talking about her. It was as if they were not talking about her but someone else.
At noon, Jing Xi asked Lou ruofei to stay for lunch. Lou ruofei didnt refuse, nor did she ask for her brothers opinion. She happily agreed.
Lou Ziling felt helpless. He didnt want to stay for dinner.
But Lou ruofei didnt leave, so he couldnt leave by himself. He could only apany her.
He had thought that Lou ruofei would leave after lunch, but to his surprise, she and Jing Xi were sitting on the sofa and chatting happily.
Lou Ziling didnt understand what was there to talk about.
The two of them could repeat the same topic over and over again without getting tired of it. The two of them mumbled bad things about him, thinking that he couldnt hear them and even covered their mouths andughed secretly.
Lou Ziling knew that Jing Xi was very talkative and liked to smile.
However, he never knew that his sister could be so eloquent!
It seemed that Lou ruofei didnt talk much at home before because he was too cold.
Lou ruofei was talking about Lou Zilings embarrassing childhood, and Jing Xi was listening with great interest.
Ziling has always been very good-looking. He was as pretty as a little girl when he was young. Once, my mom gave him a pink shirt to go to school, and a little boy in the senior year confessed to him! He beat her up and refused to apologize, causing my mother to be called to the school to apologize on his behalf.
He often skipped sses and always got first ce in exams. Their teacher suspected that he had cheated to get his grades, so he pointed at the teachers head and said,Your questions are so retarded, and the students scores are so low. Its obvious how much of a failure your education has made!
There was a time when he felt like an alien. He always prepared a small backpack and put all the things he liked in it, saying that he would wait for his parents toe to earth to pick him up!
Lou ruofei couldnt stopughing.He was born from my mothers ten months of pregnancy. What alien parents?
Jing Xiughed so hard that she was almost in tears.
She didnt know how cute Lou Ziling was when she was young!
The child prodigy actually suspected that he was an alien. Did he watch too many cartoons?
Lou Ziling, who was standing beside them, couldnt stand the two of themughing at him.Sister, cant you say something better?
Lou ruofei smiled and said,this is already considered good! I havent even told you that youre a doctor and that youve been taking medicine until youre hospitalized!
Speaking of this, Jing Xi was very sympathetic.Aiya, sister, I used to love being a doctor for myself. I didnt just know how to prescribe medicine, I also knew how to make small pills! But Im fine!
Well, it was just that she would have diarrhea after eating.
So, the two of them chatted for the whole afternoon, and Jing Xi didnt even go to ss.
Listening to Lou Zilings embarrassing story was more interesting than listening to a lecture!
He should have met Lou ruofei earlier so that she couldugh at Lou Ziling!
When Lou ruofei left in the evening, Jing Xi couldnt bear to let her go.
It had been a long time since Lou ruofei had talked to someone to her hearts content. Lou Ziling didnt have any friends before. Even if she told him some things about Lou Ziling, no one would know what was going on. Jing Xi had been with him for a long time, so she knew everything about him. When they talked, they would resonate with each other.
Unfortunately, she had to leave.
Xixi, when youe back to China, remember toe to our house! My moms cooking is really good, youll definitely like it!
Alright, Jing Xi said with a smile.Ill definitely go!
After Lou ruofei and Lou Ziling left, Jing Xis happiness was still there. So the next morning, when Luo Feiyangs voice rang out again, she was not angry.
Jing Xi got dressed, washed up, and went out. She got into Luo Feiyangs sports car. Master, Im going to mit, thank you!
She treated Luo Feiyang as a taxi driver, but Luo Feiyang didnt care at all. Jing Xi got into the car so easily today, saving him the trouble of talking. It was a good thing!
Heughed and said,alright! Miss, sit tight, Im driving a little fast!

Luo Feiyang had a cheerful and active personality. He talked non-stop along the way. Not only did he belittle Ji moxuan, but he also praised himself to the heavens!
Jing Xi listened to him with a smile and did not interrupt.
Luo Feiyang might have thought that she was interested in Ji moxuan, so he was trying his best to destroy his image.
However, Jing Xi did not care much about whether Ji moxuan had a girlfriend or not.
If she really liked Ji moxuan, she would cut off all the rotten peach blossoms by his side!
However, she treated Ji moxuan as a friend, so it would be good if his peach blossoms were more prosperous. This way, Ji moxuan would not keep chasing her!
Luo Feiyang apanied Jing Xi for a lesson. At first, he pretended to listen to the lecture, but then he stopped pretending and fell asleep on the table.
After waking up, she even praised herself,Xixi, look at how honest I am! Ill show you my true self!
After ss, someone came to give Jing Xi flowers and gifts, but Luo Feiyang blocked all of them for her.
Hey, hey, hey, whats going on with you? how dare you chase our little princess with your ghostly appearance? Hurry up and get out of here, cant you see that Im also here in line?
Big guy, youre too strong, and youre going to scare our Xixi. Get lost! What, youre not convinced? Im a Taekwondo Master, do you believe I wont beat you up until all your teeth are on the ground?
You, the one in white, youre as thin as a stick. Stop embarrassing yourself here. Do you think you can chase a woman when you fall in the wind?
Luo Feiyang! Jing Xiughed.Youve offended all my friends!
What friends? theyre all coveting your beauty. Youre so beautiful that their eyes are all shining! Theyre all vicious wolves, dont be fooled!
Luo Feiyang acted like a gentleman, as if he had no evil thoughts about Jing Xi at all.
Luo Feiyang was exhausted after a day!
He took Jing Xi to a restaurant owned by the Luo familyspany for dinner. After drinking arge ss of water, he said with a sad face,
Xixi, dont you have too many suitors? I had so many bodyguards, but they couldnt fight me. I beat a few myself, and they were half dead!
Jing Xi shook her head.Sigh, its so pitiful to be your bodyguard. Dont be so arrogant, I thought you were really good at fighting!
Mydy, my name is Feiyang. If I dont act arrogantly, Ill be letting my dad down!
I heard that your brothers name is Fei Luan. Does that mean that he has to learn Qinggong to live up to his name?
Hey, my brothers nickname is Scud. He runs very fast and has won the schools sprinting Championship! Its because he runs fast that every time he gets into trouble, he runs away without a trace, leaving me to be beaten up alone. Hes not loyal to me, Hmph!
As soon as Luo Feiyang finished speaking, a maic voice suddenly came from above the two of them.Flying!
Luo Feiyang quivered and quickly put on a smile. He said in a sweet tone,Aiya, my dear brother, why are you here too? this is really an unexpected surprise!
When Jing Xi heard how Luo Feiyang had addressed him and saw that the two of them looked simr, she knew that this must be Luo Feiyangs cousin, Luo feicui.
Luo Feilun was dressed in an exquisitely-made light gray suit and a white shirt. He was tall and handsome, and he carried a ck briefcase in his hand. One look and one could tell that he was a typical business elite.
It did not match Luo Feiyangs description of Scud!
Jing Xi looked at Luo Feifei and suddenly felt that he and Lou ruofei were a good match.
Luo feilie reached out and gave his cousin a loud smack. He said with an unfriendly look,Are you sure its a surprise and not a shock? If you dare to speak ill of me behind my back and ruin my reputation, Ill cut your allowance by half this month!
Luo Feiyang clutched his forehead and cried,dont be like this, big brother. I wont do it again. Okay?! Please show me some respect in front of my friend. This man is Jing, so show us the pride of the Luo family!
Luo Feiyang had seen Jing Xi on Luo Feiyangs birthday, but his mind was all on Lou ruofei. No matter how amazing Jing Xi was, he didnt ask much.
He didnt expect her to be a member of family Jing!
Luo feilues expression turned serious as he reached out his hand to Jing Xi.Nice to meet you, miss Jing. Im Luo feilie, Feiyangs older cousin. Please forgive me for being rude to my younger brother!
Jing Xi stood up and shook his hand with a smile.Hello! You can just call me Jing Xi. Ive heard sister ruofei mention you before. I heard that youre getting engaged next month. I wish you happiness!
Luo feicui didnt expect her to know Lou ruofei and that they seemed to have a good rtionship. He smiled and said,Thank you, thank you! I wont disturb you guys any longer!
He was very polite and even respectful to Jing Xi, but when he turned to Luo Feiyang, he was even more arrogant and domineering than Luo Feiyang.Entertain him well, and dont mess around, or Ill break your legs! You wont be able to catch up to me even if you want to fight back!
After Luo feilue finished speaking, he ignored his brothers expression and strode away.
Xixi, did you see that? My brother is so ruthless! My life in the Luo family is in deep trouble, and whats more hateful is that my father actually let my cousin manage my pocket money! Do you think hes still my biological father?
It was rare for Jing Xi to see Luo Feiyang afraid of someone. On his birthday, she didnt notice Luo feilie, but she knew that Luo Feiyang was not afraid of his father, Luo Yi.
Luo Yi probably felt that he couldnt control his son, so he handed his son over to his nephew to discipline.
This was enough to prove that the Luo familys atmosphere was very good. At least, the Brotherhood between the brothers was good.
If there was no one to control a person like Luo Feiyang, he could squander his entire familys assets in minutes! Besides, he caused trouble everywhere. Luo feilie, as his brother, probably cleaned up his mess and beat him up a lot. Otherwise, Luo Feiyang would not be so afraid of him.
Jing Xi suddenlyughed and said,Your brother is not bad!
She also had an older brother, and she was very afraid of her older brother.
Every time she got into trouble, it was Jing Rui who had to clean up the mess for her.
Her brother was now a father, and Jing Xi had only seen her nephew when she video-called her sister-inw. She had not seen him in person yet!
No way. You like my brothers type?
Luo Feiyang shook his head desperately.Don t! Hes the most two-faced! Im telling you, if youre on good terms with Lou ruofei, you should quickly persuade her to leave my brother. Otherwise, shell definitely be deceived by him!
Jing Xi found it a little funny. Why did she feel that Luo Feiyang always seemed to hate seeing people in love?
He even wanted to ruin his brothers marriage. Luo feilie really should not have left. He should have listened to him and beaten him up before leaving.
Luo Feiyang, did you get hurt in your rtionship?

Chapter 1441: A first-ss beauty
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang immediately red at him and said,thats not true! Im such a handsome and rich man, how can I have emotional trauma! Who dares to dump me?
Oh, so youve been dumped! Tell me, who gave you such a huge psychological shadow?
Luo Feiyang refused to admit it. I already said that I dont have any. Im a sunny young man. How can I have any trauma?!
Youre already past your 18th birthday. Youre no longer a teenager.
En, thats right, Im a warm youth, I like my line!
Luo Feiyang refused to tell her who had hurt him, but after dinner, he took Jing Xi to a bar.
After they entered the bar, the two of them sat down. After a while, a pretty girl came on stage to sing. Luo Feiyang pointed at her and said,Xixi, the one on the stage is Ji moxuans girlfriend, Wu Wei!
Jing Xi was stunned for a moment, and then she finally understood why Luo Feiyang had insisted on bringing her to the bar.
She looked at the woman on stage who was passionately performing an English song. Her eyebrows were like a painting, and her chestnut-colored wavy hair was soft and draped over her shoulders. A ck sequined dress wrapped around her almost perfect body. She was exquisite and charming.
Her voice was soft and gentle, and it was very pleasant to the ears with the soothing music.
Jing Xi smiled.Mm, Ji mo Xuan has good taste. This is a first ss beauty.
Luo Feiyang only nced at Li Wei before looking away. He said indifferently,In my opinion, you are the first ss beauty. Wu Wei only has the skin of a beauty but no bones of a beauty. She only has the appearance.
You dont like her type? Jing Xi asked, surprised. Wu Weis figure is so good, shes the type that all men like!
Inparison, Wu Wei had developed very well. She had long legs, a thin waist, and big breasts. Jing Xi had alwaysined that the little peach in front of her chest was growing too slowly!
Could it be that Luo Feiyang liked loli types?
A good figure is indeed very attractive, but thats not the most important factor. I didnt understand it before, but now I understand a little. You can find a girlfriend like Wu Wei, but you cant get married.
Jing Xi was confused. She didnt understand why he could be his girlfriend, but not get married.
She felt that marrying Wu Wei, even if she was just a vase, was a great visual enjoyment!
Although Ji moxuan can fall in love with Wu Wei, he will definitely not marry her! What he needed was a presentable daughter of an influential family! Oh, youre the most precious one among all the daughters of the rich families in A city!
Two years ago, my brother was even crazier than me. He changed his girlfriend every day and had all kinds of girlfriends. Hes a real love expert! Hes very clear about a womans thoughts, and hes also very clear about whether a woman is worth marrying!
Why did he change his mind after meeting Lou ruofei? It was because Lou ruofei was a realdy from a big family. She could be brought out and brought back! Shes smart, but shell never y tricks with my brother, because her upbringing makes her disdainful of using tricks to get my brothers love.
Men, the more they cant get, the better they feel. My brother has spent a lot of time and effort to pursue Lou ruofei! Once, Lou ruofei said that she had a headache. My brother didnt say anything and flew from here to city A in the middle of the night. He went straight to the Lou family the next day!
Luo Feiyang crossed his legs and said proudly,Little girl, youre still too young. Learn more from me, and I guarantee you wont be taken advantage of in the future! When ites to men and women, I know much more than you!
Thats right. Second young master Luo, youve picked countless flowers and butterflies fly around you. Of course, I cantpare to you!
Jing Xi rarely came to ces like bars. This time, she came with Luo Feiyang and felt that the atmosphere was very good. She could not help but joke with Luo Feiyang.
She felt that Luo Feifei was different from Luo Feiyang. His love with Lou ruofei was very sincere.
Luo Feiyang, on the other hand, was heartless. He seemed to be sentimental, but in fact, he had never given his true feelings to anyone.
Luo Feiyang had never avoided the fact that he had many girlfriends. He was even proud of it.
Im handsome and have a good character, thats why so many girls like me! If you dont believe me, you can go and ask around. All the girls who have been with me have been praising me after they broke up!
Im not the same as that bastard Ji moxuan. When hes in a rtionship, its like hes doing an underground job. He takes Wu Wei out to y, and when he sees an acquaintance, he says that shes his cousin! Bah, shameless!
Luo Feiyang cursed and swore. The mention of Ji moxuan made his stomach burn with anger.
The Wu Wei that he missed so much, the Wu Wei that he once held in his hands, followed Ji moxuan without any proper reason. This was equivalent to his face being stepped on by Ji moxuan!
The two of them had never gotten along since they were young, and because of Wu Weis matter, they were even more at odds.
Xixi, you must remember what Ive said to you. Dont be close to Ji moxuan! I know him the best, trust me!
Luo Fei sounded sincere, as if he was afraid that Jing Xi would fall in love with Ji moxuan.
Jing Xi smiled and pointed to Wu Wei on the stage.Doesnt Ji moxuan have a girlfriend? Im not interested in being the third party!
Luo Feiyang mmed the table and said excitedly,Thats great! Its right that you dont like him! You should like me. I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. Lets be in love!
Here ites again!
Jing Xi stood up helplessly.Its gettingte. Im leaving. You can drink by yourself.
Luo Feiyang immediately raised his hands in surrender.I was wrong! I was wrong! I wont be in love anymore. Ill just be good friends! Sit down, the nightlife has just begun, dont leave!
Jing Xi returned to her seat, and Luo Feiyang poured her a ss of juice.
A graceful figure in a pair of golden stiletto heels walked toward them.
Luo Feiyang looked up and his cheeky expression immediately turned cold.
Feiyang, is this your new girlfriend? Shes quite pretty, youve always had good taste.
Wu Weis voice was gentle, and he had a gentle smile on his face. He didnt seem to notice Luo Feiyangs cold face.
Jing Xis brows furrowed slightly.
A new girlfriend
Was Wu Wei afraid that she didnt know that Luo Feiyang had an ex-girlfriend? Why did he have to add the word new? he wasnt that good at sowing discord!
To think that she was not interested in Luo Feiyang. If it was any other girl who liked Luo Feiyang, she would probably be jealous.
Its none of your business, get lost! I dont want to see your face!
Wu Wei listened to his words. Not only did he not leave, but he also sat down next to him and said in a sad tone,Feiyang, are you still angry with me? Its been so long, I hope you can get over it. Ive always treated you as my best friend!
Chapter 1442
Chapter 1442: Dont you think its frustrating?
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang clenched his fists tightly. He stared at Wu Weis delicate face and sneered,Dont think too highly of yourself. Other than that idiot Ji moxuan who would believe your words, no one would! Youre dating Ji mo Xuan and youre trying to seduce me, what do you take us for!
Wu Weis eyes were a little red.Feiyang, dont say it so harshly. It hurts me to hear it. You know that I only treat you as a friend.
Dont think that I dont know that youre talking bad about me in front of Ji moxuan. Its a pity that the Ji family has a good rtionship with my family. No matter how unwilling Ji moxuan is, he still has toe to United States to celebrate my birthday! Its a pity that my birthday party is so Grand and luxurious, and all the famous people from all over the world are here. Youre not presentable, and the femalepanion by Ji moxuans side is not you!
Wu Weis face stiffened, then she bit her lip tightly and didnt speak.
Jing Xi sat there calmly, leisurely drinking juice and watching the show.
It was the right decision toe tonight. Luo Feiyang always brought her surprises!
Dont sit next to me, I feel disgusted! If you want to act, then go to Ji moxuans ce. Your acting skills have no effect on me!
Feiyang, since youve brought your girlfriend to watch my performance, youve always cared about me, right?
As Wu Wei spoke, he suddenly turned to look at Jing Xi and said in an apologetic tone,Miss, please dont misunderstand. Feiyang and I are just ordinary friends. Even if there was something in the past, its all in the past. Dont me him.
Jing Xi looked at the beautiful and gentle Wu Wei and felt that she might be a pushover!
I wonder if Luo Feiyangs girlfriends have also been disgusted by Wu Wei?
Jing Xis eyes turned and an idea came to her. She smiled at Wu Wei and said,Miss Ling, Im not the one who misunderstood. Youre the one who misunderstood. Im not Luo Feiyangs girlfriend, but Ji moxuans girlfriend!
Wu Wei was stunned. Even Luo Feiyang, who was about to curse, was stunned!
Impossible!
Wu Weis face turned pale, and even her eyes became fierce. She stared at Jing Xi and asked sternly,Whats your name? Why have I never seen you before? The person mo Xuan likes is me, how could he like a t figure like yours!
Jing Xi only used one sentence to reveal Wu Weis true colors.
Luo Feiyangs originally angry heart suddenly turned cold. A woman like Wu Wei wasnt worth his anger.
It was the simplest and most effective way to stab her in the most fatal ce in her heart like what Jing Xi had done.
Thats right, I dont know what exactly Ji moxuan likes about me. My chest isnt as big as yours, my legs arent as long as yours, my height isnt as tall as yours, and I dont love him as much as you do either. I keep rejecting him, but he still likes me. Dont you think its infuriating?
Jing Xis fair face was smiling, but her heart was burning with anger!
He dared tough at her for having a t figure?
This had always been her taboo! No one can say it!
She was just a little slower in her development, how was she t? Why cant someone like me?
Miss Ling, please help to persuade Ji moxuan to stop pursuing me. Aiya, its so annoying to keep receiving gifts! He even brought me to Luo Feiyangs birthday party and caused me to be pestered by that crazy Luo Feiyang. How annoying!
In line with the principle of angering people to death, he didnt want to hear what Jing Xi said.
She had never been one to be bullied since she was young. Wu Wei dared tough at her as a t board, so she was already giving face to Ji moxuan by not kicking him!
If the Tiger didnt show its might, she would be treated like a kitten!
Feiyang, the air in this ce isnt good, and this persons singing is terrible. This isnt a ce for people to stay. Your taste is bad. Next time, Ill treat you. Lets call it a day here and send me home.
Luo Feiyang stood up respectfully and smiled at Jing Xi.Yes, yes, yes. My taste is not good. Your Highness, please go!
Jing Xi stood up and tried not tough. She raised her head and walked away with Luo Feiyang.
Li Wei sat on the spot and stomped her feet in anger. She knew that the reason Ji moxuan broke up with her was because of an aristocratic familys daughter, but she never thought that it would be the one she met tonight!
Seeing how respectful Luo Feiyang was to her, she knew that she must be someone of high status.
Luo Feiyang had always been arrogant and domineering. When he pursued her in the past, he had never restrained his temper.
In the past, Wu Wei didnt know his identity. She only thought that he was poor, ostentatious, loved to fight, and bragged, so she had always hated him.
By the time he found out about Luo Feiyangs identity, it was already toote to repair their rtionship.
Today, Luo Feiyang was willing to be a little girls underling. Wu Wei felt that she might have offended another person with a high status.
However, Wu Wei was very indignant after being ruthlessly suppressed by Jing Xi once. She immediately called Ji moxuan and wanted to cry to him and tell him that she had been bullied!
It was a pity that no one picked up Ji moxuans phone even after she had made countless international calls.
Anger and despair gradually rose in Wu Weis heart. She hated her parents. Why did they give her a flower-like beauty but not give her a matching family condition!
They were so poor, but they didnt want to improve, they werezy and greedy!
They did not do any work. The two of them were in their forties and had been picking up trash and scraps for a living!
But now, they only knew how to ask for money from her every day. They took it for granted and never felt ashamed.
Wu Wei grew up eating garbage and didnt have money to go to school. If she wasnt beautiful and cute enough to kneel in front of the primary school principals door every day and beg, she would still be illiterate!
His family was extremely poor, and Wu Wei wished that both his parents were dead!
This way, when she applied for the schrship in school, she didnt need to describe her predicament and pitiful situation in detail. She only needed to fill in both parents died!
In school, she could only wear the most worn out clothes, shoes that did not fit her feet, and torn socks. She could only use books and notebooks that others had used. Even her pencils and erasers were picked up from the garbage.
She craved money more than anyone else!
Therefore, when someone offered her money and wanted her body, she easily agreed.
That year, she was only thirteen years old.
However, Wu Wei never regretted it. What was health? money was more important than anything.
Her body had been developed the best by a man, and she had a lot of good food and nutrition. Her development was very fast.
When she was Jing Xis age, her chest was already well-developed. She would look charming and beautiful with a little dressing up, unlike Jing Xi, who still looked like a young girl.
Chapter 1443
Chapter 1443: Gentle offensive
Trantor: 549690339
Wu Wei hated her parents. She had never admitted her identity to anyone. If someone asked, she would say that her parents were ordinary office workers.
Of course, she had also lied to Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan in this way.
However, Wu Wei still didnt know that Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuans families were extremely powerful. The two of them had already investigated her familys situation clearly.
Luo Feiyang didnt look down on her because of her poor family. On the contrary, he used to feel bad for Wu Wei. He thought she had suffered too much and wanted to give her the best care.
Wu Wei would never know what she had lost.
Ji moxuan didnt mind Wu Weis family conditions because he had never thought of marrying Wu Wei. It was just a rtionship. As long as Wu Wei was beautiful and gentle, it would be fine.
He did notck money.
If it werent for the fact that Jing Xis appearance and temperament were much better than Wu Wei s, Ji moxuan would not have broken up with her so quickly.
However, Wu Wei did not realize the difference between her and Jing Xi.
At night, she returned to her own residence, took off her clothes, and stood in front of the mirror. She looked at her sexy and hot body and revealed a confident smile.
She did not believe that Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang would like that tablet!
The body was a womans greatest weapon. She was so beautiful that no man could resist her temptation!
Wu Wei thought that Luo Feiyang still liked her, but at this moment, Luo Feiyang wasughing out loud.
Oh, Xixi, you did great tonight! Im telling you, I have several girlfriends who were disgusted by Wu Wei. Today, she finally learned her lesson! On behalf of my ex-girlfriends, I thank you. Thank you for avenging them! Hahaha
Jing Xi nced at him and said,Luo Feiyang, the person who dumped you and caused you psychological trauma is this Wu Wei, right?
Luo Feiyang was stunned, then he shouted,Impossible, how could I like a woman like her! Big-breasted but brainless, who knows how many men shes slept with!
The louder you shout, the more it shows that youre guilty, Jing Xi said with a smile. No wonder you cant bear to see Ji mo Xuan in love and youre so adamant in stopping me from being together with him. So you two are love rivals!
Luo Feiyang was stunned. He scratched his head and said helplessly,Can you not be so smart? girls who are too smart wont be able to find a boyfriend!
Also, we used to be love rivals, but not anymore. You saw Wu Weis appearance. Shes ugly on the inside and all the gentleness is fake. If I didnt want you to see Ji moxuans girlfriend tonight, I wouldnt have brought you along. Every time I see her, Im just causing trouble for myself.
As Luo Feiyang spoke, he suddenly raised his head and returned to his mboyant young master style.
The person I like now is you. Youre the same as what you look like, and youre smart. You wont be easily provoked by others. Think about it, there arent many handsome and rich men like me!
Jing Xi was already used to his narcissism. She smiled brightly and waved at Luo Feiyang.Im going home, you should go home too. Drive safely!
Luo Feiyang drove back in his sports car. The smile in his eyes never stopped.
He thought that Jing Xi was very interesting. She was not soft-hearted when she tore people apart. She would never take his jokes seriously. She was also concerned about others. She was his type!
If Jing Xis identity was a little more ordinary, even if it was just a little bit worse than the Luo family, he would have taken tough measures to pursue Jing Xi.
Unfortunately, the Jing family was more powerful than the Luo family. Luo Feiyangs domineering behavior had a limit, so he didnt dare to do anything to Jing Xi.
Even so, Luo Feiyang still took Jing Xi to school for several days in a row. He was her personal chauffeur, even better than Jing Yichens chauffeur.
Xixi, what are we having today? its my treat!
Little princess, do you have a present you like? Ill buy it for you!
My angel, I think Ive fallen in love with you. I cant sleep thinking about you day and night. Why dont you sleep with me tonight?
Luo Feiyang pursued Jing Xi in different ways every day, but he didnt dare to use force, so he decided to use gentleness to attack!
He remembered that his brother also chased Lou ruofei like this!
Unfortunately, what he did to Lou ruofei seemed to bepletely useless to Jing Xi. Luo Feiyang had been working hard for more than half a month, but his rtionship with Jing Xi was still at its original point. There was no progress at all.
Luo Feiyang suddenly understood why Ji moxuan had not managed to get Jing Xi.
She was really too difficult to pursue!
She didntck anything and had seen everything. She knew what they knew and what they didnt know. It was useless to show off her wealth and martial arts in front of her!
Moreover, she had a strong mental strength and there were no ws in her at all. Luo Feiyang had no way to deal with her!
However, this didnt make Luo Feiyang lose his enthusiasm. On the contrary, he chased after her with more enthusiasm.
He would spend his youth chasing after a girl he liked. Even if he didnt seed in the end, at least he wouldnt leave himself with any regrets.
On the other hand, under Wu Weis relentless efforts, she finally got through to Ji moxuans phone and told him about her argument with Jing Xi. She even thought she was smart and made it sound like Jing Xi and Luo Feiyang had an ambiguous rtionship.
In the end, Ji moxuan flew to United States the next day.
However, after Ji moxuan arrived in the United States, he did not go to Wu Wei. Instead, he went straight to Jing Xis residence.
There were only servants in the house, and Jing Xi was not home.
Ji moxuan went to the school to look for her again, but there was still no one.
He frowned and took a taxi to a high-end restaurant in the Luo family. He finally saw Jing Xi there.
However, Luo Feiyang was sitting opposite Jing Xi, beaming with joy, which made Ji moxuan feel a little bad.
Xixi, so youre here. No wonder I couldnt find you anywhere.
Mo Xuan? Jing Xi was surprised to see him.When did youe? Why didnt you call me in advance?e over and sit!
Ji moxuan walked over and sat beside Jing Xi.
Of course, he couldnt call Jing Xi in advance. Otherwise, he wouldnt have been able to see what was going on between Jing Xi and Luo Feiyang.
Ji moxuan sat beside Jing Xi, but Luo Feiyang, who was sitting opposite him, was unhappy.Hey, hey, hey, Xixi, whats going on? you didnt agree to sit with me just now, but why is the treatment so good when that Ji guyes? This isnt fair, I want to sit with you too!
Shut up! Jing Xi red at him.Just eat your food!
Luo Feiyang immediately became obedient.Oh, okay. Ill listen to you. Whatever you say.
Chapter 1444
Chapter 1444: The VIP couple seat
Trantor: 549690339
Ji moxuan was stunned for a moment. It was as if he didnt know Luo Feiyang at all. He looked at him up and down a few times until Luo Feiyang was pissed off. Then, he said,
Its only been half a month. Luo Feiyang, how did you change from a Lion baring its fangs and ws to an obedient kitten? Did you take the wrong medicine?
Luo Feiyang, who had been obedient for a minute, immediately became irascible again.Get lost! Youre the one whos taken the wrong medicine! I can do whatever I want, but I like being Xixis kitten! Are you jealous?
Luo Feiyang, are you still a man? youre taking advantage of my absence to poach him. Do you believe that Ill tell your brother all of your crimes and let him deal with you?!
Hahaha, go ahead andin! Do you think Im afraid of you? My brother is getting engaged in a few days. He went to A city to pick up my sister-inw and is not back yet! When hees back, hell definitely be lovey-dovey with my sister-inw again, and he wont have time for me!
Only then did Ji moxuan recall that Luo feichuo was indeed going to get engaged in a few days. He valued his fiance a lot and probably had no time to care about his cousin.
No wonder Luo Feiyang was so arrogant!
Luo Feiyang, you already have so many girlfriends. Dont mess with Xixi anymore. Shes different from all those other women you have!
You speak as if you dont have a girlfriend. Did Wu Weiin to you again? Tsk, Ive already cut off all ties with my girlfriend, and you shouldnt have provoked Xixi. Shes different from your idiotic girlfriend!
At the mention of Wu Wei, Ji moxuan suddenly turned to Jing Xi and asked,Xixi, you told Wu Wei that youre my girlfriend?
No! Jing Xi was confused.I never said that! Feiyang, did I say that when you were there?
Of course not! Luo Feiyang shook his head.Of course not!
How could he admit to such things? Luo Feiyang was not stupid. Anyway, Ji moxuan did not know what they were talking about. He could take the opportunity to trick li Weiyi!
Aiyo, this Wu Wei loves to create rumors and stir up trouble the most. Shes afraid that the world is in chaos, but there are people who always like to believe her. Shes brainless!
In fact, Ji moxuan did not believe that Jing Xi would say that she was his girlfriend because she had clearly stated that she only saw him as a friend and did not date.
Of course, Ji moxuan knew that Wu Wei always liked to exaggerate when she spoke. He also knew that she would lie. He usually didntpletely believe her words, so this time, he easily believed Jing Xi and Luo Feiyang.
Xixi, I admit that I used to have a good rtionship with Wu Wei, but now I have nothing to do with her. Dont think too much about it.
Ji moxuan felt that although Jing Xi would not ept his pursuit now, she was only 15 years old. There was still a long time in the future for her to change a persons thoughts and opinions.
He did not want to leave a bad impression on Jing Xi.
Especially not to lose to Luo Feiyang!
The lunch passed with Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyangs open and secretpetition.
Jing Xi looked at the two of them fighting and felt that they had not grown up at all. They might have only liked her a little, but now they were showing that they liked her very much, as if it were real.
When they came out of the restaurant, Jing Xis stomach was full, but Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang were not full. They were too busy arguing to eat.
Luo Feiyang wanted to send Jing Xi home, and so did Ji moxuan. The two of them argued endlessly. Jing Xis head hurt so much that she rejected both of them and asked her driver to take her home.
After Jing Xi left, Luo Feiyang couldnt help butin,Ji, its all your fault. Xixi left as soon as you arrived! He had wanted to take her to watch the new sci-fi blockbuster in the afternoon, but now it was all gone! Youll have to pay for my movie tickets!
Ji moxuansints were no less than Luo Feiyang S. He red at Luo Feiyang,You still have the nerve to say that? I was the one who liked Xixi first, and I even introduced her to you. Youre actually snatching her from me! Are you even human?
I did, so what? Well have a fairpetition, and its Xixis own business who she chooses. You can only me yourself for not being careful! I chose it to prove that Im better than you!
Ji moxuan listened to Luo Feiyangs choice of words and suddenly felt likeughing.What do you mean by choosing? its a beauty pageant!
Ill definitely be prettier than you in a beauty pageant! Pfft, Im not going to waste my breath on you. The movie is about to start, Im going to watch it!
What movie?
Its a blockbuster and a big production. You wont be able to see it in A city. Itll only be released in two months over there! Hmph!
After Ji moxuan heard this, he immediately opened Luo Feiyangs car door and sat in the front passenger seat.
Luo Feiyang red at him,what are you doing? This is my car, get off!
Ji moxuans face was indifferent.Drive. I want to go to the movies. You can be the driver!
Ji mo Xuan, youre shameless! Im treating you to lunch, and you want me to treat you to a movie? And you even want me to be your driver, youre so happy!
Didnt you buy two tickets? It would be a waste if we dont use it!
Im happy to do so! Even if its a waste, I cant let a hypocrite like you use it!
However, even though Luo Feiyang was angry and cussing, he did not chase Ji moxuan out of the car. He really brought him to the cinema to watch a movie.
Luo Feiyang was a sci-fi fan and had been looking forward to this movie for a long time. But Jing Xi wasnt going, and it would be awkward for him to go to the movie alone. Now that Ji moxuan was there, it would be better for the two of them to go together, right?
However, reality proved that Luo Feiyangs thinking was wrong!
He had reserved the VIP couple seats, and the two of them sat on the same sofa.
Everyone else was a man and a woman who were sweet and loving, but they were the only two men sitting together.
Luo Feiyang stuffed popcorn into his mouth as he poked Ji moxuan with his finger.Hey, why do I feel like the way people look at us is a little weird
Ji moxuan had not eaten his fill in the afternoon and was fighting for the popcorn in Luo Feiyangs hands with all his might. He did not even notice that someone was looking at them.
Thats not true. Your paranoia has worsened! At most, theyll think that were a couple
Bah! Whos a couple with you? Im a man, and I only like women!
As Luo Feiyang spoke, he suddenly stood up and said loudly in American English,What are you looking at? have you never seen two men watching a movie together? Turn your heads back, if you keep looking, Ill dig out your eyes!
Ji moxuan shook his head speechlessly. This guys arrogance and despotic attitude had not changed at all. He could not even stop watching a movie!
Fortunately, he had a strong aura and a fierce face. One look and you could tell that he was not someone to be trifled with. He was tall, strong, and muscr, so no one dared to go against him. They were all watching their own movies obediently.

Luo Feiyang saw that the audience was quiet and only the sound from the movie could be heard. He couldnt help but raise his head and sit down in satisfaction.
He reached out for more popcorn, but he grabbed nothing!
He looked down and saw that only one bucket of popcorn was left. There were a few pieces of corn that had not burst at the bottom of the bucket.
Luo Feiyang was both angry and amused.Young master Ji. Is the Ji family not giving you food? whats wrong with that? he asked. Crazy,ing all the way to the United States to fight with me for popcorn! Youre promising!
Do you still want to drink the coke? If you dont drink, give it to me!
Impossible, this is mine! Youve already drunk one, if you drink more, youll be stuffed to death!
Luo Feiyang protected his ss of coke tightly and Ji moxuan rolled his eyes at him.Stingy!
The next afternoon, Jing Xi was dragged to lunch by Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan. As she ate, she casually asked,What did you guys do yesterday afternoon?
Luo Feiyangs mental fortitude was worse than Ji moxuan s, so he immediately jumped up from his chair and shouted,I didnt do anything. Dont misunderstand, I just watched a movie!
Jing Xi had just taken a sip of water and almost spat it out.
She was just asking casually. Luo Feiyang was too excited, right?
Ah? Watch a movie? You guys?
Ji moxuan kicked Luo Feiyang hard under the table. He picked up some food for Jing Xi with the serving chopsticks and smiled.Hes talking about him, not me. I was reading documents in the hotel and didnt go anywhere.
Luo Feiyang was an expert at sabotaging others. He immediately said,Ji moxuan, you clearly freeloaded on my movie tickets yesterday afternoon. You even freeloaded on my car and my popcorn. You dare to say that you didnt go anywhere?!
Ji moxuan finally lost his cool and roared along with Luo Feiyang,You shut up! Have you forgotten that you were mistaken as a couple? Next time you go out, remember to bring your brain, or Ill give you half of my brain!
Bah, who cares about your brain! You have a pigs brain, Im much smarter than you!
I wonder who got thest ce in school every day and got his ass beaten up by his brother!
The two of them started quarreling again, but Jing Xiughed so hard that her stomach hurt.
She had thought that they would be red-faced and angry at each other when they saw each other, and would want to strangle each other to death. She didnt expect that they could watch a movie together in peace! It was really magical!
No wonder Ji moxuan refused to admit that the two of them had gone to the movies together. It turned out that he had been misunderstood as gay!
After lunch, Jing Xis stomach was full again, and the other two young masters left hungry.
Jing Xi was living a carefree life, while Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang were living in deep water and fire.
Ji moxuan received a phone call from Ji Bo in the evening. Ji Bo was very angry.
Mo Xuan, whats the matter with you! Are you still in contact with that Wu Wei? If you keep getting involved with those women,e back quickly. You dont have to go after Jing Xi anymore! I cant afford to lose that face!
Dad, no, I made it clear to Wu Wei. We cant even be considered friends now! Who did you hear that from? Im still in contact with her. If you want to believe your son, how can you believe someone else?
Feiyang is not just anyone? Hes one of us, and hes been straight since he was young. He wont lie at all!
Ji moxuan was so angry that his head was about to smoke!
Luo Feiyang, you again! I, Ji moxuan, am irreconcble with you!
If youre unkind, dont me me for being unkind!
That night, Luo Feiyangs life was tragic.
Luo Feiyang, you better put that Lazurite bracelet back in my drawer! Ill go back to the United States tomorrow afternoon. If I dont see that bracelet, Ill break your bones and string them into a bracelet!
Luo Feifeis voice was filled with anger. When Luo Feiyang heard his voice, he knew that this was his brothers angry rhythm!
He asked in fear,brother, isnt it just a bracelet? Lapiszuli isnt worth much. If you like it, I can even give you a sack of it!
A sack my ass! Every piece of Lazurite in that bracelet was personally selected and polished by your sister-inw. She gave it to me! If you cant get it back, Ill have no choice but to grind you down and apologize to her!
Oh my God, brother, why didnt you say so earlier! If I had said so earlier, I wouldnt have given it away even if I was beaten to death!
Luo Feiyangs scalp went numb. If he really could not get it back, what awaited him would definitely be a bloody storm!
His mind was filled with doubts. Under great pressure, he asked in a low voice,But You werent home, how did you know that I gave your bracelet to someone else? Since when did you have such good eyesight and hearing
If you dont learn well, cant you learn more from mo Xuan? If he didnt remind me this time, my things would have been gone! Hurry up and get it, get it overnight! Not one less!
Ji moxuan?
Luo Feiyang hung up the phone and gritted his teeth.
This bastard actually told on him!
How did Ji moxuan know that he had given away Luo Feifeis bracelet?
However, Luo Feiyang no longer cared about these things. He put on his clothes haphazardly and cursed at Ji moxuan before driving out in the middle of the night.
The color of the bracelet that Lou ruofei gave Luo Feifei was very beautiful. It was a stunning ocean blue with bits of gold. Luo Feiyang identally found it in his brothers drawer a few days ago. He liked the color and took it out to y.
In the end, he met one of his ex-girlfriends that day. That girl liked him so much that Luo Feiyang gave it to her with a wave of his hand!
Lapiszuli wasnt worth much. Even if it had a good color, it would only be worth ten to twenty thousand dors at most. He thought that Luo feicui would not care.
He didnt expect that this string ofpiszuli would be personally polished by Lou ruofei!
Luo Feiyang wanted to give himself a p. Was he tired of living? why did he have to touch that fiend Luo feilues thing? he had made a mess!
Buddha, please dont let your evil ex-girlfriend throw the bracelet away or give it away!
Luo Feiyang finally found his ex-girlfriends ce after much effort.
He shouted for a long time, but no one came to open the door for him, so he directly climbed into the small vi with the bodyguards.
After he entered, Luo Feiyang treated it like his own home. He turned on the lights and rummaged around. He was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat.
His ex-girlfriend, Be, heard a voice in her daze. She got up to take a look and immediately screamed,Help! Theres a thief!
Luo Feiyang red at her.What are you shouting for? its me!
Be was still in shock,you, you, you What are you doing? My parents arent home. If you bully me, Ill call the police!
Stupid girl, youre afraid of being bullied, but you still dare to say that your parents arent home!
Luo Feiyang hated himself for liking this kind of silly person in the past.
I dont have time to bully you. Let me ask you, wheres the Lazurite bracelet I gave youst time?
Chapter 1446
Chapter 1446: Lou Ziling who can cook
Trantor: 549690339
Why? Didnt you already give it to me?
Quickly take it out and give it back to me! Hes going to die!
Be turned around unwillingly, went to her bedroom, and took out a small box.Its here, I cant bear to wear it.
She really liked the color ofpiszuli. After Luo Feiyang gave it to her, she even emptied out a jewelry box to keep the bracelet.
Luo Feiyang was overjoyed. He snatched it over and opened the box. His brothers Lazurite bracelet was lying there quietly, intact.
He suddenly hugged Be and kissed her on the cheek.Youre such a good girl. I knew you would keep it! Ill treat you to a mealter. Im not free today, so Ill be leaving first!
Luo Feiyang left in a hurry. Be wiped the saliva off her face and stomped her feet in anger.Stingy, youre asking for something youve already given away in the middle of the night!
As expected, Luo feicui returned to the United States the next day. Lou ruofei and her family came back with him.
They were about to get engaged, so he brought the Lou family over in advance.
An engagement was a big deal. Luo feilie gave his fiance a vi as an engagement gift.
After the Lou family of four arrived, they stayed in the vi that Luo Fei had given them.
Luo feicui was twenty-seven years old this year. He was mature, steady, careful, andprehensive. He made sure that the Lou family was well-behaved, and Lou Mingyang was very satisfied with this future son-inw.
To be precise, Lou Mingyang had chosen Luo feilie for his daughter.
The way they met was also very traditional: Blind dates.
The Luo family had a huge business. The old master of the Luo family, Luo qichuan, had built a Foundation in North America from scratch. His two sons, Luo gang and Luo Yi, were in charge of the emerce business and the electronic Technology business respectively.
Lou Mingyang and Luo gang used to be University ssmates. Later, the Lou familys sports equipment business and the Luo familys emerce business cooperated, and the rtionship between the two changed from ssmates to partners.
Luo gang knew Lou Mingyangs character better than anyone else. He had proposed more than once to make Lou ruofei his daughter-inw. Unfortunately, Lou Mingyang had always felt that Luo feilie was too fickle. A daughter had to be dignified. He was worried that her future life would not be happy, so he had never agreed.
The first person that Lou Mingyang had his eyes on was actually mu Sen.
It was a pity that Lou ruofei and mu Sen were not fated to be together. In the end, they could only be ordinary friends.
It was not until Luo Feifei took over the Luo familyspany and had a deeper contact with Lou Mingyang in terms of business that Lou Mingyang agreed to let Lou ruofei meet him. Lou Mingyang saw his calmness and seriousness.
He did not expect that after they met, Luo feilie would go out of control. Not only did he change his fickleness, but he also worked more diligently and attached more importance to the cooperation with the Lou family.
Lou ruofei seemed to be an easy-going person, but in fact, she was as slow-witted as Lou Ziling. It was hard for her to ept a person walking into her heart.
She looked like an awe-inspiring and invibledy from a big family, and one needed to be especially thick-skinned to chase her.
Luo feicui happened to be very thick-skinned. His love experience could be written into a book. After he fell in love with Lou ruofei, he never gave up on pursuing her. He used all kinds of methods.
Lou ruofei had already gotten used to Luo feicuis presence.
Her parents were very satisfied with the marriage. Perhaps Lou Ziling was the only one who didnt like it.
Lou Ziling felt that the two brothers of the Luo family were too arrogant!
Every time he saw his future brother-inw, his face would be cold. So, under normal circumstances, Lou Ziling would be chased out of the house by his parents to prevent him from fighting with Luo feilie.
Aftering to the United States, other than going home once, Luo Fei spent all his time in the vi that he had given Lou ruofei.
Therefore, Lou Ziling was kicked out again.
Lou Zilings head hurt.
Even his own son could notpare to his future son-inw!
Wasnt he just a little cold? wasnt he like this usually?
Lou Ziling had no home to return to, and he was tired after a ten-hour flight from A city. He went through all the ces he could go and finally chose Jing Xis house.
Jing Xi opened the door and was surprised to see him.Its sote, why are you here?
Lou Ziling pushed her away and walked straight in.Is there anything to eat?
Yes, Jing Xi replied subconsciously.
After she finished her sentence, she realized that it had nothing to do with Lou Ziling.
I wont let you eat even if I have it!
Lou Ziling went to the kitchen and found that only fruits and yogurt were left. The rest were half-finished and inedible.
He turned on the gas, filled a small stainless steel pot with water, and began to cook instant noodles for himself.
Lou Ziling! Jing Xi was surprised.This is my house! Youre so impolite, are you sleepwalking?
Lou Ziling didnt say anything. She took out a box of yogurt from the refrigerator and drank it. After she finished drinking, she took out two raw eggs, broke them, and threw them into the pot to cook with instant noodles. She turned around and saw the ham in the refrigerator. She took it out, cut it into pieces, and threw it into the pot.
Jing Xi walked up to him and poked his arm.When did you learn to cook? Howe I didnt know about it?
Cooking instant noodles is considered as knowing how to cook?
It seemed that Jing Xi did not even know how to cook instant noodles.
Lou Ziling nced at her and said,I know how to cook noodles.
As he spoke, he saw that it was almost done, so he found a big bowl and scooped out the noodles. He didnt even miss the soup and poured it into the bowl.
He walked to the living room with the bowl of noodles in his hands. Jing Xi followed behind him, tugging at his clothes and saying anxiously,Lou Ziling, why did you only cook one bowl? Theres still me! I want to eat too!
Lou Ziling couldnt move, so she turned to look at her.You didnt eat dinner?
I ate it!
Then why are you still eating!
But Im hungry again!
If youre hungry, get your maid to wake up and ask her to cook for you. I dont know how to cook.
A maid is also a person. I gave her two days off. She went home to rest and is not here today!
Jing Xi held on tightly to Lou Zilings clothes. Lou Ziling had no choice but to take another small bowl and share some of the instant noodles with Jing Xi.Here.
I want a big bowl, not a small one. Theres so little that its not even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth!
No, the big bowl is mine.
Lou Ziling grabbed Jing Xis hand to stop her from tugging at his clothes. Then, he took her to the living room.
Jing Xi pouted and followed him. After sitting down at the table in the living room, she finished her small bowl of instant noodles in a few bites.
She looked at Lou Ziling eating the steaming instant noodles and suddenly hugged him, not letting him move his chopsticks.The pot is mine, the instant noodles are mine, the Eggs and Ham are also mine. I want to eat them, youre not allowed to snatch them from me!

Chapter 1447: A single man and a single woman
Trantor: 549690339
Her soft body suddenly leaned against Lou Zilings body. He could even feel the two soft little peaches on her chest under her thin clothes.
Lou Zilings body stiffened and she put down her chopsticks subconsciously.
Jing Xi didnt know that her beauty was revealed. When she saw that Lou Ziling had stopped eating, she was overjoyed. She snatched his bowl and ate happily.
Aiya, Lou Ziling, your noodle-making skills are not bad! Shes on the same level as my mom!
Shangguan ning only knew how to cook instant noodles and nothing else. So Jing Xi had always thought that she was good at it.
However, Jing Xi rarely ate these things. There were servants at home, and the servants would make different kinds of dishes for her to eat. How could they cook instant noodles for her? this was too much!
Lou Ziling saw that Jing Xi was so happy that she didnt even care about her image and drank the soup. He couldnt help smiling.
He stood up and went back into the kitchen to cook another bowl for himself.
Jing Xi ate slowly. When Lou Ziling came out of the kitchen again, she had only finished half of her meal.
The two of them sat at the table and ate happily.
Lou Ziling, when did youe?
Today,
Why are you running to me? did you miss me?
Im hungry, and I didnt bring any money with me.
Youre here to freeload! Didnt you miss me at all?
Lou Ziling didnt say anything and just ate her noodles.
Cold-blooded and heartless Lou Ziling! Jing Xi toot.Youre just a freeloader!
After a few words, Jing Xi was happy again and started to talk to him.
Anyway, she was already used to Lou Zilings cold and lonely look. It would be strange if he talked too much one day!
Lou Ziling knew to look for her when she was hungry. That was already good enough. She shouldnt ask for too much!
Lou Ziling, Im 15 years old. Dont you realize that Ive grown a little taller? How tall do you think I should be?
Lou Ziling felt helpless. If he said he would grow as tall as he wanted, then he would really be a God!
Lou Ziling finished the noodles and the soup. She finally felt better.
He took a sip of water,pletely unaware that Jing Xi had just drunk from this cup.
Lou Ziling, how tall are you? Is he 2.5 meters tall? I think youre really tall!
2.5 meters? Was he a giant?
Lou Ziling stood up and walked to the soft sofa. She sat down and rested on it.
Jing Xi ran over to him and sat beside him, shaking his arm.Do you want to sleep here? No, no, were alone here. What if you lose control of yourself in the middle of the night? I cant beat you!
When is sister ruofeis engagement? Tomorrow, the day after, or the day after? Can I go and y? Ive already prepared an engagement gift for her!
Is she going to stay here after the engagement? Are you going back to A city? Does that mean we can see each other more often in the future?
Seeing that Lou Ziling didnt respond, Jing Xi wanted to shake him, but he was breathing evenly with his eyes closed.
Unknowingly, he had fallen asleep!
Lou Ziling had always been in good shape and had good physical strength. She rarely felt so tired, and she had never fallen asleep while Jing Xi was talking.
Most of the time, he appeared by her side as a protector.
Jing Xi looked at his sleeping face and sighed softly.How tired are you? How long have you not slept?
She reached out her hand and touched Lou Zilings chin, which had already grown some stubble. She smiled and said, Hes so handsome!
Jing Xi covered him with a nket and went to the bathroom to wash up. She then went back to her room andy down on her bed in her pajamas.
However, she tossed and turned and couldnt fall asleep. Lou Ziling was sleeping in the living room outside. Lou Zilings face kept appearing in front of her eyes. She couldnt help but want to go to the living room to see him.
Jing Xi couldnt bear it anymore. She put on her slippers and ran to the living room. She sat on the edge of the sofa and watched Lou Ziling sleep.
The sleeping Lou Ziling didnt look as cold and arrogant as before. His eyes and brows seemed to be much gentler. He had removed his hard armor and revealed his original appearance.
His hair was of good quality, with a hint of moisture in the ck. Jing Xi touched it and thought it was very fun.
If she wasnt afraid of waking Lou Ziling up, she would have kept touching her.
He had long eyebrows, a straight nose, and pale and thin lips, which made him look very cold.
However, it also made him look cool and handsome.
He was clearly not Jing Xis type. She had always been more inclined to warm men, who had bright smiles and clear voices.
But for some reason, every time Jing Xi saw Lou Ziling, she did not mind his cold at all.
As she watched, Jing Xi fell asleep on Lou Zilings chest.
Lou Ziling was woken up by her. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw a small head sleeping on top of him. No wonder he kept dreaming. In his dream, he even had difficulty breathing.
He was covered with a nket, which was obviously covered by Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling touched her head gently.Xixi, get up and go back to the bedroom to sleep.
Oh, okay, Jing Xi mumbled as she rubbed her head against his chest, but she didnt move.
If they slept like this for one night, the two of them wouldnt be able to get up the next day. This definitely wouldnt work.
Lou Ziling held Jing Xis head and slowly got up. Then he picked her up and walked to the bedroom.
Jing Xi finally woke up. She opened her eyes and saw that it was Lou Ziling who was holding her. Then she closed her eyes again.
Lou Ziling carried her and put her on the bed. She wanted to leave, but Jing Xi wrapped her arms around her neck.
Where are you going? Jing Xi muttered. Dont leave!
Lou Ziling subconsciously patted her back and said in a low voice,Yes, Im not leaving. Let go.
Then you can sleep with me. I cant sleep alone
Dont mess around, go to sleep.
Lou Zilings neck was being held by Jing Xi, and they were very close to each other. Her pajamas were a little tilted, revealing arge area of her chest.
Lou Ziling subconsciously looked at it.
Jing Xi realized that something was wrong. She immediately let go of Lou Zilings neck and pulled up her clothes.
Her sleepiness was gone and she was wide awake.Lou Ziling, where are you looking?
Lou Ziling stood up expressionlessly and said,How old are you? whats there to see? If you cut your long hair, youll be no different from a little boy.
Jing Xi sat up in anger, picked up a pillow, and threw it at him.
Lou Ziling didnt Dodge. The pillow was so soft that it didnt hurt even if it hit her body.
He picked up the pillow and threw it back onto the bed.Go to sleep. Teenagers dont have enough sleep. Itll affect their development.
Chapter 1448
Chapter 1448: All men are dangerous
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi suddenly puffed up her chest and looked up.Im developing, why havent I? My chest is bigger than yours!
Lou Ziling held back herughter and pointed at her head.Im talking about affecting the development of the brain. What kind of nonsense are you thinking about all day long?
She really knew how topare herself to someone else!
He had never heard of a girlpeting with a man in terms of size.
Jing Xi was so angry that she threw the pillow at Lou Ziling again and snorted.You just despise my small chest, Hmph! Dont think I dont know that you guys like big-breasted girls! Ill grow up one day, very, very big!
Lou Ziling finally couldnt help butugh. He picked up the pillow again and threw it to Jing Xi.If you throw it down again, I wont let you pick it up!
Jing Xi looked at Lou Zilings rare smile and said,You look really good when you smile.
Lou Ziling replied with an okay and walked out of the bedroom. Sheid on the sofa and continued to sleep.
However, this time, he took a long time to fall asleep.
In the bedroom, Jing Xi was the same, but she was being bullied by Lou Ziyao.
She got off the bed barefooted and ran to the dressing mirror in the bedroom to look at herself left and right. In the end, she fell on the bed in despair.
Why hadnt the little peach turned into a huge chest?!
She had been trying very hard to eat and get more nutrients!
Her mothers breasts were also very plump. Could it be that she didnt inherit this advantage?
Or was she developing too slowly?
Why were the girls around her all so big-chested, no matter how tall or short they were?
Jing Xi didnt fall asleep until dawn.
Not long after she fell asleep, there was a knock on the door, followed by a deafening shout,Xixi, wake up! Im Feiyang! Luo Feiyang!
Even without Luo Feiyangs greeting, Jing Xi knew it was him.
He was the only one who would knock on the door so violently without pressing the doorbell.
Only when someone familiar came would the bodyguards standing guard outside her door choose to turn a blind eye and let him knock on the door.
Jing Xi was so sleepy that she chose to ignore Luo Feiyang. She covered herself with the nket and continued to sleep.
On the other hand, Lou Ziling, who was sleeping in the living room, couldnt take it anymore. She got up and opened the door for Luo Feiyang.
Xixi, Ill give you
Luo Feiyang was stunned when he saw that the person who opened the door was not Jing Xi.
You are Lou Ziling?!
Luo Feiyang looked like he had seen a ghost and cried out,Why are you at Xixis house? You look like youve just woken up. Did you sleep with Xixist night?
Lou Ziling looked at him coldly.Dont talk nonsense!
Lou Ziling didnt like Luo feicui, and neither did he like Luo Feiyang.
Luo Feiyang had once followed Luo Fei to the Lou familys residence. The two of them could be considered to know each other but were not close.
Lou Ziling saw that the sky had turned bright. She pushed Luo Feiyang, who was blocking the door, away and strode away.
Luo Feiyang watched him leave in a daze. After a while, he finally reacted and ran into the living room screaming,Xixi, Xixi! Come out, I just saw Lou Ziling! Why is he at your house? You have to give me a reasonable exnation, or Ill cry in front of you!
Jing Xi walked out of the bedroom, yawning.Second young master Luo, could you pleaseeter? Im so sleepy! You sleepter than dogs and wake up earlier than chickens every day, but why are you still so energetic?
Luo Feiyang handed the things in his hand to Jing Xi.Im here to give you an invitation. My brother and Lou ruofei are getting engaged tomorrow. You cane and have fun!
Oh, thank you. Im going back to sleep.
Dont go! Luo Feiyang stopped her immediately.You havent told me whats going on between you and Lou Ziling! Im always at odds with Ji moxuan, I hope Lou Ziling doesnt find a loophole!
What do you mean what happened? he just slept in my house for a night. Youre overthinking it!
Lou Ziling could not be any more gentlemanly. He was like the modern Liu Xiahui, who would not even look at a beauty in his arms.
Oh, no, he took a look.
But he despised her for being small!
Hmph! No eyes!
Thinking of this, Jing Xi was not happy.
Lou Ziling had left too quickly today. She hadnt even vented her anger yet and he had already left!
However, Luo Feiyang didnt know about Jing Xis anger. When he heard that Lou Ziling had indeed spent the night at Jing Xis house, he immediately beat his chest and stamped his feet.
Oh my God, so Lou Ziling is the most hidden one! Shes already sleeping in your house? Ive been sending you to school every day and treating you to meals every day, but youve never let me sleep at your house! Its been my biggest dream to sleep with you!
He slept therest night, Jing Xi said, pointing at the sofa.You can try sleeping there too.
Jing Xis sofa wasnt too big. It was fine for a fifteen-year-old girl to sleep on it, but it was more painful for an adult man to sleep on it.
Moreover, Lou Ziling was one of the taller adults.
It was an exaggeration when Jing Xi said he was 2.5 meters tall, but Lou Ziling was at least 1.88 meters tall.
Luo Feiyang had just turned 18 a month ago. He was not as tall as Lou Ziling, but he was 1.8 meters tall. He had to curl his legs up on the sofa, so it must be ufortable.
Luo Feiyang had always had high standards for the bed. When he heard that Lou Ziling was not sleeping with Jing Xi, but on the sofa, he finally felt a little better.
Men these days are all very dangerous. Theyre gentle professors in the day, but theyre worse than beasts at night! Xixi, you cant let a man stay at your house anymore. Its not safe!
Luo Feiyang always felt that Jing Xi was a little white rabbit. He was afraid that she would be taken advantage of, so he said,If youre scared of sleeping alone at home, you can sleep at my house! Otherwise, Im willing toe here to apany you! For your safety, its worth it to sacrifice a little quality of my sleep!
Jing Xi yawned and pushed Luo Feiyang out of the room.I didnt sleep wellst night. I have to go back to catch up on sleep. Hurry up and leave!
She pushed Luo Feiyang out of the door and mmed it shut. Luo Feiyang was still outside the door and asked,Exin yourself. Why didnt you sleep wellst night? What did you do with Lou Ziling? Why arent you sleeping in the middle of the night?
However, Jing Xi ignored him and went back to herfortable bed to catch up on sleep.
Luo Feiyang shouted for a long time but to no avail. He had an idea and immediately gave Ji moxuan a call.
The call went through and Ji moxuans half-awake and slightly hoarse voice came from the phone,Luo Feiyang, youre crazy! Why are you calling me so early in the morning? Youre the one who gets up early and wont let anyone else sleep!
Chapter 1449
Chapter 1449: Love rivals joining hands
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang was so angry that his teeth itched. Serves you right for not letting you sleep in. I havent even settled the score with you for telling my brother! Hurry up and get over here, I want to have a fight with you!
If you didnt tell my dad, would I have told your brother? Youre the one who started it! Im already being very polite! Besides, even if I didnt tell your brother, hell definitely find out that its gone when he gets home! At that time, you still wont be able to escape a beating!
Then I didnt tell your dad. He would know about you and Wu Wei sooner orter anyway. I just told him in advance! Im doing this for your own good. That Wu Wei isnt a good person!
Luo Feiyang quarreled with Ji moxuan for a while before he remembered the purpose of his call.
Hey, do you know Lou Ziling? I just saw him at Xixis ce. Is he very close to Xixi? Why is he allowed to spend the night at Xixis ce?
What?
Ji moxuans voice involuntarily rose a notch,Are they together?
Im asking you, how would I know! Although Lou Ziling didnt sleep on the same sofa as Xixi, she was still better treated than the two of us! I havent even slept in her house before!
Luo Feiyang was so anxious that he kept scratching his hair. He had thought that his biggestpetitor was Ji moxuan, but he did not expect Lou Ziling to appear out of nowhere. The danger level was off the charts!
Ji moxuan, hurry up and get over here. Lets discuss and beat Lou Ziling up first!
Inparison, Luo Feiyang had grown up with Ji moxuan and was closer to him than Lou Ziling. He felt that he was the same kind of person as Ji moxuan, but he did not seem to be in the same world as Lou Ziling.
Can you stop hitting people for no reason? Youre so violent, Xixi definitely wont like you! Where are you? Ille and find you immediately. Well talk when we meet!
Luo Feiyang told him the name of a restaurant near Jing Xis house, then went there to wait for him.
Half an hourter, Ji moxuan, who was dressed in white sportswear, arrived.
He looked sunny and handsome. As soon as he entered the dining room, the people eating breakfast all looked in his direction.
Luo Feiyang cursed hypocrite in a low voice, then waved at Ji moxuan as if nothing had happened.This way!
Today, she was going to join forces with Ji moxuan to deal with Lou Ziling. It was not suitable for her to fight. She had to suppress her anger first. It would not be toote to deal with Ji moxuan after Lou Ziling was dealt with.
Luo Feiyang had always thought that he was the most handsome. Every time he was with Ji moxuan, the passersby would all look at him and he would feel very unconvinced.
Because of this, he oftenughed at Ji moxuan, saying that he had a attracting bees and butterflies Constitution.
In reality, Luo Feiyangs looks were indeed not inferior to Ji moxuan s. It was just that his aura had severely ruined his handsome face.
Ji moxuan exuded an air of nobility and spoke in an orderly and unhurried manner.
Luo Feiyang, on the other hand, was used to being domineering and had a slightly impatient personality. He would hit someone at the slightest disagreement and his gaze was not as peaceful as Ji moxuan s. Instead, it was extremely sharp.
No passerby would dare to stare at him!
Ji moxuan didnt know that his beauty had attracted Luo Feiyangs jealousy again. He ordered a portion of breakfast and asked with a frown,Whats going on? can you be more specific? I knew Lou Ziling and Xixi had a special rtionship, but its not to the point where she can sleep in Xixis house!
Luo Feiyang took a sip of milk and said,Who cares what their rtionship is? if we work together, cant we kill Lou Ziling? Xixi is mine! I wont allow anyone to touch my goddess!
In the past, when she was chasing Li Wei, she was intercepted by Ji moxuan halfway. This time, she couldnt be intercepted again!
Lou Ziling is Lou ruofeis younger brother. Shes her only younger brother and your brothers brother-inw! Are you sure your brother will let you go if you kill or cripple him?
Am I that stupid? You can just find anyone to beat him up, why do you need me to do it personally?
Although Luo Feiyang said that, he really had some concerns in his heart.
He was so anxious that he forgot that he was Lou Zilings rtive.
Beating him up is the worst n. Our goal is to keep Lou Ziling away from Jing Xi. Its best to let him know the gap between them. With the Lou familys conditions, its impossible to marry Jing Xi!
Ji moxuans voice was very low as he slowly analyzed,The Jing family wouldnt marry Xixi to such a low status. At the very least, they would marry her to a big family like yours and mine. Besides, Lou Ziling is much older than Jing Xi, which is also a disadvantage. Hes cold and arrogant, and hes not tactful enough. He wont give in to Xixi in the future, which is also a shoring.
Luo Feiyangs eyes lit up. He patted Ji moxuans shoulder hard, causing him to suck in a breath of cold air in pain.
Ji, youre good. Youve investigated Lou Ziling so thoroughly! I told you that youre a hypocrite. Everyone else thinks that youre a good person. People like you are full of bad ideas. On the surface, you look like a gentleman, but if youre not careful, youll fall into your hands!
Ji moxuan was infuriated by Luo Feiyang. He massaged his shoulder that was in pain from being patted and said in an unpleasant tone,What do you mean by full of bad ideas,this is called high IQ! Do you understand? Do you think theyre all like you, simple-minded and brawny, using violence when you encounter a problem?
The waiter brought breakfast over. Ji moxuan ate his breakfast and ignored Luo Feiyang.
Aiya, why are you still eating? hurry up and find Lou Ziling! My brother and his sister are getting engaged tomorrow, so theyre really rtives. Since were not rtives yet, Ill go and beat him up first!
Poor Ji moxuan, he had only ordered two mouthfuls of breakfast before he was forcefully dragged away by a violent man.
Lou Ziling had no idea that he had two love rivals now. He went home, took a shower, changed his clothes, and went downstairs for breakfast. Then, he saw Luo feijueing to his house again with gifts.
Lou Ziling looked at her watch and felt that the Luo Brothers were particrly fond of waking up early.
Tomorrow was the day of the engagement. His parents were in high spirits. They treated Luo feimeng affectionately and invited him to have breakfast with them. No one paid attention to Lou Ziling.
Even Lou ruofei smiled gently at Luo Feifei and called out Feifei in a melodious voice. She spoke to him gently.
The only person who responded to Lou Ziling was Luo feicui.
Good Morning, Ziling! You look a little pale, did you not rest wellst night?
If Lou Ziling was not so cold and arrogant that she did not bother to roll her eyes, she would have rolled her eyes at Luo Fei.
He had been chased out all because of Luo feicui. Otherwise, he would have had a good nights sleep!

Lou Ziling nodded her head as a gesture. She sat down at the table and started to eat her breakfast.
Lou Zilings mother, tan Zhen, gently patted her sons back.You child, Im flying over to talk to you!
As a mother, she knew her sons temper the best. She knew that Lou Ziling did not like to talk, so she did not pick on Luo feilie.
She smiled apologetically at Luo Feifei,Ziling is always like this. She doesnt talk much at home. Come, Fei Fei, lets have breakfast together. Feifei even made you some sweet soup, try it!
Lou Zilings cold arrogance and reticence were something Luo feilie had already experienced.
He knew that even when Lou Ziling spoke to Lou ruofei, he would treat her words like gold. In the beginning, Luo feicui always felt that he had offended Lou Ziling. After a long time, he realized that Lou Zilings character was so unreasonable.
Therefore, he didnt take it to heart. Anyway, he was marrying Lou ruofei, so it didnt matter how much Lou Ziling said.
Luo feiluo showed a bright smile.Thank you, Auntie tan. Youve taught Feifei so well, its a good thing for me! Its my fortune to be able to marry her!
Lou Mingyang and tan Zhen had visited the Luo family when Luo feilie was young.Aunt tan was how Luo feilie called tan Zhen when he was young. They were not married yet, so it was not appropriate to call her mom. Luo feilie still called her aunt tan to make it seem more intimate.
Tan Zhen was in her forties and had taken good care of herself. Her aura exuded an elegant and dignified ssical charm.
She smiled and said,you and Feifei are getting engaged tomorrow. Take care of her for me in the future. She has always been an obedient child, but she has a temper sometimes. Please be tolerant of her.
Auntie tan, dont worry. Ill definitely treat Feifei well. My parents will also treat her like their own daughter!
Lou Ziling sneered as soon as Luo feicui finished his sentence.
If he really treated Lou ruofei as his own daughter, why would he force Lou ruofei to drink on Luo Feiyangs birthday?
It caused her headache to act up, and even painkillers didnt work!
Lou Zilings sneer was neither loud nor soft, just enough for everyone to hear. The originally harmonious and beautiful atmosphere was destroyed by him.
Lou Mingyang kicked his son under the table and used his eyes to signal him not to mess around. He said something else to ease the atmosphere.
After finishing their breakfast, Luo Fei went to the bathroom. Lou Ziling followed him in.
Luo feiluos action of unbuckling his belt paused. He did not know what Lou Ziling meant.
Lou Ziling ignored his stiff expression and said coldly,First, my sister cant drink, not a single drop! Second, if you or your family bullies her, I will do whatever it takes to get justice for her!
This was the longest sentence that Luo feicui had ever heard Lou Ziling say since he knew him.
Luo feichuis face turned serious and he said solemnly,Ill remember it all. Shell be my wife, the one wholl spend the rest of my life with me. Ill protect her well.
Luo feilie didnt expect that Lou Ziling, who usually didnt even say a word to Lou ruofei, would actually care about her sister!
After Lou Ziling warned her future brother-inw, she didnt trust his promise too much. He would always say good things. The key was whether he could keep his promise in the future.
He turned around and walked out of the bathroom.
Lou ruofei saw himing out of the bathroom and asked curiously,Ziling, why did you go in? I clearly saw him fly in first! If you want to go to the washroom, isnt there another one upstairs?
Lou Ziling replied with a soft hmm and didnt exin anything. She walked past Lou ruofei and out of the living room.
Lou ruofei shook her head helplessly. When Luo feicui came out of the bathroom, she held Luo feicuis arm and said softly,Please dont mind what Ziling said. Hes always been cold.
Luo Fei grabbed Lou ruofeis waist. Seeing that her parents were not around, he quietly kissed her forehead and smiled.Thats right, Im such an open-minded and kind person, I definitely wouldnt mind! Ziling is a good brother. I have to remember my brother-inws teachings. I cant forget it for even a minute!
Lou ruofei was not used to being so close to him at home. She was very shy and afraid that her parents and brother would find out.
Luo feilie knew that she was shy, so he only gave her a light kiss and then let go of her hand. He touched her head and said in a gentle and loving tone,Feifei, shall I take you out for a ride?
Youre getting engaged tomorrow. Dont you need to go back home to prepare?
Its all ready. There are helpers for some small things. Dont worry, well just go out and y!
Luo feilie walked out with his fiance. From afar, he heard a familiar voice that gave him a headache.
Lou Ziling, do you dare to have a match with me? the one who loses will never appear in front of Xixi again! Whoever breaks their promise is a grandson!
Luo feicui was so angry that he almost died. He pulled Lou ruofei and walked quickly to the front door of the vi. He frowned and shouted coldly,Luo Feiyang, hurry up and go home!
Luo Feiyang, who was shouting, suddenly quivered. He widened his eyes and said,Brother? Why are you here too Oh, oh, oh, youre here to look for sister-inw! Hello, sister-inw. Sister-inw is so beautiful today! Um, Im at the wrong ce. Ill be leaving first!
After Luo Feiyang finished speaking, he ran away like a wisp of smoke and disappeared without a trace. Those who didnt know better would think that there was a great flood or ferocious beast chasing after him!
Ji moxuan had been abandoned by him and was cursing him a hundred times in his heart.
Fortunately, he was also a person who was used to ups and downs. His expression was still calm. He smiled and greeted Luo feilie. He called out brother feilie and followed the good advice and called Lou ruofei sister-inw.
After exchanging pleasantries with the two of them, Ji moxuan took a deep look at the expressionless Lou Ziling and left.
Ji moxuans performance and Luo Feiyangs were simply two extremes. One was calm and unruffled, disying the air of a young master from an aristocratic family. The other was like a mouse that had seen a cat, running away without a care for his image!
Luo feilie was so angry with his brother that he almost vomited blood. However, in front of Lou ruofei and her brother, he had to give his brother some face and couldnt say anything.
Lou Ziling didnt take Luo Feiyangs provocation to heart. He drove away quickly.
However, he was suddenly stopped by a group of men in ck.
Lou Ziling instantly guessed who the person who stopped him was. He opened the door and got out of the car with a cold expression.
Hahaha, Lou Ziling, lets see who will help you this time! Youre quite brave, seeing so many people surrounding you, you actually dare to get out of the car! It seems that hes not afraid of death. Not bad, not bad, hes a man!

Chapter 1451: I will never marry Jing Xi
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang pped his hands and walked out from his bodyguards. Behind him was Ji moxuan, whose expression was calm but his heart was on the verge of vomiting blood.
He said he wouldnt use violence, but Luo Feiyang changed his mind in the blink of an eye!
When he saw Luo feicui, he ran away faster than a rabbit. When he did not see Luo feicui, he was arrogant.
Luo Feiyang advocated martial strength. Rtively speaking, Ji moxuan was more inclined to advocate civilization.
He took a few steps forward and walked in front of Luo Feiyang. He looked up at the cold Lou Ziling and said in a friendly tone,
Lou Ziling, lets not beat around the bush. Xixi is an excellent girl. Its normal to like her. I dont want to hide it anymore. Ive been pursuing her. If you are the same, please give up!
Thats right, hurry up and give up! Otherwise, youve already seen my men, and youll be in for a rough time!
Luo Feiyang also rushed forward and threatened Lou Ziling. He did not want to lose to Ji moxuan in terms of imposing manner.
Ji moxuan suddenly felt that he and Luo Feiyang, one gentle and the other tough, were more effective in coercing Lou Ziling!
You should know that with your status and the conditions of the Lou family, the possibility of you marrying Xixi is basically zero, he said slowly.So, I hope you dont continue to hold her up.
Luo Feiyang did not notice any problems with thebination. He was simple-minded and did not think of so many twists and turns.
If I beat you into a pigs head, it wont look good at your sisters engagement party tomorrow! Or, Ill break your legs so that you wont be able to attend the engagement party tomorrow! Have you thought about it? do you want your legs or do you want to continue pursuing Jing Xi?
Lou Zilings expression was indifferent. He really didnt take these two people and the group of ck-clothed bodyguards seriously.
If it werent for the fact that both of them had powerful families behind them, they wouldnt be able to stand up and talk now.
If he had had enough power and influence, they would not have been able to appear in front of him so arrogantly today and ask him to give up Jing Xi.
Although he had never had the intention to pursue Jing Xi, the sense of humiliation he felt at this moment was so strong.
Lou Ziling clenched her fists. Strength. She needed strength!
Otherwise, no matter who his wife was in the future, he would not even be able to protect her!
Hey, hey, hey, Lou Cheng, whats with that look? Do you think that you can kill people without them noticing just because your eyes are sharp? Im telling you, the only reason I can waste so much time talking to you is because of my brother!
Luo Feiyang felt that Lou Zilings eyes were like those of a fierce Wolf. He was a little scared.
This kind of gaze made Luo Feiyang very ufortable. He felt as if his own aura had been forcibly suppressed!
Dont think that just because your sister has my brother, your whole family will rise to the heavens with her. Im not afraid of you. If I beat you half to death, youll only get a few scoldings when you go back! Arent you ashamed of using a woman to gain power?
Do you want to marry Xixi and use family Jing to get to the top? In your dreams, dont think that just because you have a pretty boy appearance, you can live off a woman! You wont be able to eat this kind of soft rice!
Lou Zilings face grew colder and colder. Her eyes turned from sharp and cold to dark and terrifying.
Luo Feiyangs words were like a sharp knife, stabbing straight into the deepest and most obscure ce in Lou Zilings heart!
He didnt want to get close to Jing Xi or have too much contact with her because he was afraid that one day, the Lou family would be pointed at and scolded by the world.
Look, the new heir of the Lou family is a soft-rice!
The Lou familys current strength was obtained by pleasing women and selling their souls!
If he married Jing Xi, he could indeed reach the sky in one step!
But Lou Ziling didnt want this kind of glory. She didnt want this kind of good thing that fell from the sky!
He had hands and feet, brains and abilities. He could climb to the peak by himself!
Lou Zilings voice was cold as she said,I will never marry Jing Xi!
As he spoke, he raised his hand and punched Luo Feiyang.
Ah! Luo Feiyang cried out in pain, and his nose started to bleed.
That punch just now was for my sister. What happened next was because you were asking for a beating!
Luo Feiyangs anger burst out in an instant. He actually didnt manage to Dodge that punch! It was too embarrassing!
Fighting was amon thing for Luo Feiyang. In order to beat people down, he had specially learned Taekwondo and fighting skills. No one in his age group was his match.
Other than his brother, Luo feilie, whom he could not defeat and could only behave himself with his tail between his legs, he had never been afraid of anyone.
In the past, he was the one who beat others until their noses bled. Who had the guts to touch him?
Luo Feiyang didnt even wipe away the blood from his nose. He pounced on Lou Ziling like a crazy tiger!
Unfortunately, he had encountered an expert today.
When he hit Lou Ziling, it was as if he had hit an iron te. His body didnt move at all, but Luo Feiyangs chest hurt from the impact!
He wanted to punch Lou Ziling, but Lou Ziling was faster than him. Lou Ziling grabbed his wrist and gave him a heavy blow.
He wanted to kick Lou Ziling, but Lou Ziling was faster than him. Lou Zilings body flew in an arc in the air and fell on the hard ground with a bang.
Without Luo Feiyangs order, his bodyguards had already swarmed up and surrounded Lou Ziling.
However, the bodyguards fate was even worse than his!
One by one, they fell and flew away, screaming in pain. They were defeated so quickly that they were like paper!
Five minutester, other than Lou Ziling, the only person left standing was the dumbfounded Ji moxuan.
Ji moxuan swallowed his saliva with great difficulty. Who could tell him what was going on?
The Lou Ziling he investigated was a young man with a high IQ and severe autism. Why did he not find out that his martial arts skills were at the peak?
Well Lou Ziling, lets talk this out. Were all from A city, and were all from big families. Well see each other often
It was obvious that Ji moxuan was giving in. Before Lou Ziling could react, Luo Feiyang, who was lying on the ground, scolded Ji moxuan loudly,Ji, how can you admit defeat? Youre an embarrassment to us men. Dont tell anyone you know me in the future! If you have the guts, then go and beat that Lou guy up!
Ji moxuan was about to be angered to death by this pig-like teammate!
If he didnt help, he would only add to the chaos!
They hade in arge group, but Lou Ziling had easily defeated them. If he went up alone, he would just be courting death!
Ji moxuan was an all-rounder and there was basically nothing he didnt know. He naturally had a coach to teach him how to fight.
However, he had learned a lot of things. Although he knew a lot, he was not very proficient in them. He was only a little better at fighting than ordinary people. He could notpare with Lou Ziling at all.
Chapter 1452
Chapter 1452: The only way to escape
Trantor: 549690339
Ji moxuan was different from Luo Feiyang. He wouldnt bite the bullet to protect his face and insist on hitting someone even when he knew that he couldnt win.
He didnt want to end up like Luo Feiyang, lying on the ground with a bloody nose and a swollen face!
Ji moxuan deliberately mentioned city A to subtly express the power his family had in city A. Lou Ziling understood.
Lou Ziling had always been a calm and self-controlled person. He desired great power, but at the same time, he was afraid of the power that others currently had.
He didnt want to easily provoke opponents and enemies for his family.
Hence, he merely shot a cold nce at Ji moxuan before turning around to open the car door and got in. He then quickly started the engine and left.
Ji moxuan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He thought that it was fortunate that Lou Ziling was not as crazy as Luo Feiyang. He still knew how to be wary of the Ji familys power. Otherwise, he would not have been able to escape today.
However, Ji moxuan managed to escape, but Luo Feiyang was not happy!
What right did they have to lie on the ground like corpses with injuries all over their bodies, while Ji moxuan was still standing there like a human!
Ji moxuan, youve disgraced us men! Youre not brave at all, youre a bear, youre a coward!
Luo Feiyang struggled to get up from the ground, but Ji moxuan quickly walked to his side and gave him a tight p on the back, sending him back to the ground!
Youre so brave, why are you still lying down? Get up, you!
Luo Feiyang gritted his teeth in pain and his face turned white with anger.Are you crazy? cant you see that Im injured? Why did you hit me? Why didnt you use your strength on him when Lou Ziling was here?
You said you wouldnt use force, but you changed your mind at thest minute. Now youve lost so badly, its so embarrassing! If Xixi finds out, where are we going to put our faces?
Ji moxuan was also quite angry. He pointed at the ck-robed men on the ground and said,Youve raised a bunch of good-for-nothings. Hurry up and open them up and rece them with a batch of good quality ones!
He left after saying that. His stomach was empty early in the morning. Why did he have to go crazy with Luo Feiyang?
Wouldnt it be better to have a quiet breakfast and then go have a chat with Jing Xi?
Lou Ziling had made it clear that he would not marry Jing Xi.
This way, he didnt need to trouble Lou Ziling anymore.
Deep in the whirlpool, Jing Xi had no idea what was going on outside. She had a good sleep the entire morning. At noon, the servant came and made her a lot of delicious food. She ate it happily.
Thinking of the fragrant instant noodles she had cookedst night, Jing Xi suddenly decided to have instant noodles for dinner.
But when night came and the maid made instant noodles ording to her instructions, Jing Xi felt that the taste was very different fromst night.
It was the same instant noodles, the same eggs, and the same ham, but why did the taste change?
Jing Xi had an outstanding memory. She remembered all of Lou Zilings movements clearly. She had asked the servant to do it ording to Lou Zilings method!
She wanted to ask Lou Ziling to do it again. However, no one picked up her phone even after she called her several times.
Jing Xi was so angry that she threw her phone away. She thought that Lou Ziling was deliberately not picking up her call.
Lou Ziling always carried her phone with her, in case she missed important business calls.
In a quiet and elegant caf, Lou Ziling had aptop, a cup of aromatic Americano, and a mobile phone in front of her.
Her phone had rung five times. Lou Ziling looked at the number on the screen quietly without any intention to answer.
He had never saved this number before, but he had already memorized it by heart.
He could even imagine the owner of the number pouting in anger when no one picked up after calling five times.
Lou Ziling picked up her coffee and took a sip.
The coffee was a little bitter, just like what he was feeling at the moment.
He wasnt the kind of person who liked to run away from things. On the contrary, he had a tenacious character and would never give up easily. He would find a solution to all difficulties and was never afraid of challenges.
He had lived for 22 years, and the only person he had ever avoided was Jing Xi.
But in fact, this was the person he did not want to escape from the most.
She was only eight years old when he first met her.
She was mischievous, bald, and wore a monks robe from the temple. She was fair and cute, and he had once mistaken her for an outrageously beautiful little boy.
She had once pretended to be a little monk and asked him innocently with her tender voice,Almsgiver, do you have a cold?
He ignored her, but she wasnt angry. She was still smiling and nagging like a little old woman.
Whats your name? Where do you live?
You want to be a monk too?
Youre so good-looking, you shouldnt be a monk!
It had been seven years since then.
But when Lou Ziling thought back to that summer, it was as if it was just yesterday. Jing Xis clear voice and bright smile were still in front of his eyes.
She gradually grew up and was not as mischievous as when she was young, but she was still that happy and innocent little girl deep down.
She had never changed.
The person who had changed was himself.
Lou Ziling was holding a piece of crystal clear Jade Guanyin in her hand. She subconsciously touched it with her fingers.
This was a gift from Jing Xi to him on his birthdayst year.
The Jade was made of high-quality Hetian jade and was very expensive. However, the carving was a little rough. The face of Guanyin was carved like Buddha.
It was obvious that this was the work of a beginner.
Only the little princess of family Jing could practice her skills with the precious Hetian jade.
Lou Ziling, I made a Jade Guanyin statue for your birthday. Do you like it? Youre not allowed to say you dont like it! You have to wear it even if you dont like it. Go back to A city and ask the old Abbot of Dayun temple to bless you to ensure your safety!
Although the Lou family was not as rich as the Jing family, they were still a family with a strong foundation. Lou Ziling had seen many good things since he was a child. He had at least seven or eight Jade Guanyin.
However, this was the first time he had seen such an ugly one.
He would never hang these random things around his neck. If wearing a jade pendant could keep him safe, then insurance sellers could lose their jobs.
However, he had always carried the one that Jing Xi had given him.
At first, it was to deal with Jing Xis examination. The first few days after she gave the gift, she asked every day,Lou Ziling, did you throw away the Jade Guanyin that I gave you? Show me, dont try to fool me, my knife skill is unique, I know it!
Butter on, she got used to it.
No matter what Lou Ziling changed into, the Jade Guanyin would put it in her pocket and bring it out.
The cafs door opened, and a tall woman walked in.
Her high heels made a crisp sound. The sound was neither fast nor slow, as if it was knocking on peoples hearts.
Finally, the sound stopped in front of Lou Ziling.

Chapter 1453: Its a pleasure to meet you, Miss Li!
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling slowly raised her head and a beautiful face came into his sight.
Lou Ziling?
Although the womans tone was questioning, her pair of soul-stirring eyes clearly showed her certainty.
Lou Ziling didnt say anything. He quietly retracted his hand from the table and put the Jade Guanyin back into his pants pocket.
What, youre not going to invite me to sit down after seeing the beauty? The third young master of the Lou family isnt very gentlemanly. The eldest and second young masters are much gentlemanly than you!
Lou Ziling frowned.Does this woman know Lou Zirong and Lou Ziyi?
Her clothes, her temperament, and the way she spoke all gave off a different feeling. She was obviously not an ordinary person.
The woman sat down in the seat opposite Lou Ziling and casually ced her orange-red Hermes handbag on the table.
Lou Ziling didnt know much about womens bags. However, thanks to Luo Feifei, he had given Lou ruofei countless bags since he started pursuing her. The bag that Lou ruofei was using now was the same style but different color. It was worth hundreds of thousands.
Third master Lou, arent you going to treat me to a cup of coffee? Im here to talk about cooperation with you with all my heart. If your attitude is so bad, the contract worth hundreds of millions of Yuan might be gone!
The womans voice was beautiful and pleasant. Her curves were enchanting, and the peaks on her chest were about to burst out.
There was a kind of charming beauty in her every movement. She was graceful and exuded the charm of a mature woman.
Unfortunately, the person sitting opposite her was Lou Ziling, a man who had never treated women as women.
What piqued Lou Zilings interest more was the word contract.
Lou Ziling waved at the waiter in the caf.A cup of coffee!
The waiter came over and asked with a smile,What kind of coffee do you want?
What do you want to drink? Lou Ziling looked at the woman.
Cabsino is ready! The woman smiled.
The waiter responded and turned to leave.
I heard that you are very cold and seeing you today, it is indeed so. Cold people are usually very rational and smart. I like to work with smart and rational people!
The woman smiled and extended her hand to Lou Ziling.Hello, my name is Li Jing!
Lou Ziling didnt reach out her hand, but her usually calm heart was in turmoil.
No wonder he felt that the person in front of him was vaguely familiar. He had seen her photo before!
She was the only heir of the Li family, and she was a woman at that. The huge family fortune would belong to her alone in the future. In the eyes of many families, she was the most popr one!
And she was far hotter than Jing Xi.
For one thing, Jing Xi was too young. For another, the inheritance of the Jing family had always been concentrated. Jing Rui was the only heir of the Jing family. Although Jing Xi would also get arge amount of dowry and property, she would have nothing to do with Jingsheng enterprise.
Li Jing was different. She was 27 years old this year, at the age of marriage.
Moreover, she would inherit all the assets andpanies of the Li family. If he married her, he might be able to take over the entire Li family!
Of course, Li Jing wasnt an easy person to deal with. She had many siblings, but none of them had survived.
Everyone knew what this meant.
So, if he wanted to marry Li Jing, he had to have the courage to pay with his life.
Lou Ziling looked straight at the woman in front of her. She had exquisite makeup and beautiful facial features.Miss Li, nice to meet you!
Li Jing retracted her hand naturally. She wasnt angry at Lou Ziling for not shaking her hand.
She seemed to be well-educated, and there was no w in her smile.Third young master Lou is indeed different. You are more attractive than your two brothers! No wonder the Lou family was able toe back from the dead in your and your fathers hands.
Not everyone could resist her, especially men.
Li Jing shook hands with Lou Ziling just to test him.
Ive worked with Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirong before. Unfortunately, they were too good-for-nothing and the cooperation failed. They even lost the power of their familyspany.
Lou Zilings heart trembled. Li Jing had worked with Lou mingzhen before?
There was no record of cooperation with the Li family in all the contracts of the Lou familyspany!
And the reason why Lou mingzhen gave up the power of thepany was not because of the failure of the cooperation, but because he had offended Jing Rui and was suppressed by family Jing.
Could it be that Li Jing had something to do with Jing Rui?
The coffee was served by the waiter. Li Jing didnt say anything more. She picked up the coffee and slowly sipped it.
I wont work with you, Lou Ziling finally said after a long time.
As far as he knew, the Jing family and the Li family had always been in a rtionship of mutual non-interference. The two families had maintained a delicate bnce, as if there was something invisible restraining them, so that neither of the two huge families dared to make any big moves.
The Lou family had always been a subordinate of the Jing family. It was onlyter that they joined forces with other smaller families in an attempt to betray the Jing family that they were suppressed.
If Lou Ziling hadnt saved Jing Xi and Lou Mingyang didnt have the same values as Lou mingzhen, the Jing family wouldnt have supported the Lou family.
Now that thepany was finally getting better, Lou Ziling didnt want to ruin everything.
I havent even said what kind of cooperation it is. Why did you reject me?
Li Jing put down her coffee, a confident smile on her beautiful face.I think no one can refuse my cooperation, not even you!
Miss Li, you know that the Lou family is under the Jing familys influence, but you still want to talk about cooperation with the Lou family. Are you trying to send the Lou family to the end of the road?
Lou Ziling spoke slowly. Although he was eager to strengthen his family, he was also afraid of the Jing familys power.
Otherwise, he would not have been forced to apany Jing Xi for so long.
He didnt know if the Jing family would know about his meeting with Li Jing today.
There were no imprable walls in the world. He needed to be more cautious.
Li Jing didnt have Lou Zilings concerns. She looked rxed and said in a nonchnt tone,The Lou family can be the Jing familys power, but they can also not be. If the Li family can provide you with more resources to help the Lou family develop faster and even to the point where you canpete with the Jing family, will you still refuse me?
To the point where they couldpete with family Jing?
Lou Ziling also wanted to!
However, the difficulty level was too high. It was so high that Lou Ziling could not see any hope.
More than anyone else, he hoped that one day, he would not have to listen to others orders under pressure. One day, he could talk to Jing Xi whenever he wanted, instead of getting close to her just to use her.
As if she knew what Lou Ziling was thinking, Li Zhi smiled charmingly.Do you think that you cant surpass family Jing in a short time? No, there is a very fast and simple method right now!

Lou Ziling frowned. He suddenly thought of a possibility!
Then, he heard Li Jing say,Marry me!
Lou Zilings frown deepened. He didnt understand why Li Jing would suddenly want to marry into the Lou family. It didnt seem to be good for her!
What do you think? Im sincere enough for this kind of cooperation, right? My only condition is that Im the only one who can bring up the divorce. You can t. No matter when I bring it up, you must agree. Of course, during our marriage, you have to fulfill your duties as a husband and love me well. You cant fall in love with anyone else.
Li Jing gently stroked her hair and said in a gentle voice, Im so beautiful, its not hard to fall in love with me, right? My suitors could line up from A city to the United States!
Lou Ziling didnt think that Li Zhi was beautiful. To him, it didnt matter if she was beautiful or not. What was important was whether Li Jing could really make the Lou family rise quickly!
As long as it could strengthen the power of the Lou family, he was willing to marry an extremely ugly woman. Lou Ziling never minded a marriage alliance. He didnt care whether the person he married was ugly or beautiful.
The Lou family is only a small family with ordinary strength. Why did you choose the Lou family?
Oh, no, no, no. I didnt choose the Lou family. I chose you, Lou Ziling!
Why me? Lou Ziling looked at Li Jing.
I cant tell you that. Ill only tell you the reason if you agree to marry me.
What good would it do you to marry me?
There are many benefits, but thats not important. Whats most important is that you get the benefits, isnt it?
Li Jing looked at Lou Ziling with adoration. She leaned forward slightly and whispered,Im very interested in you. If my investigation is correct, although third young master Lou is already 22 years old, he hasnt touched a woman yet. This is very rare!
Li Zhi was so close that Lou Ziling could smell the faint fragrance on her body. He sat back to keep a distance from her.
I wont work with you, you can go!
Li Jing was very satisfied with Lou Zilings action. She had always hated men who took the initiative. The colder they were, the less interested she was in them. For example, Jing Rui!
Havent you always been eager for the Lou family to develop? With the Li familys support, the Lou family would be A first-ss family in city a in less than five years! If you dont cooperate with me, the Lou family will forever be trampled under the feet of others!
Marry me and well work together to develop the Lou family. We can get a divorce in five years at most! Youll only be 27 years old in five years. It wont be toote to marry another woman you like. By then, the Lou family will be a first-ss family. You can have any girl you want.
Lou Zilings heart was full of doubts. She didnt believe Li Jings words at all.
Any family in A city would have an advantage over the Lou family. Why would Li Jing choose the Lou family?
Lou Ziling didnt believe that a woman like Li Jing would choose a partner just because he was handsome.
He thought for a moment and said,You want the Lou family to get rid of the Jing family for you?
Of course, itd be best if we can get rid of them! Li Jing smiled.
Thats impossible.
Lou Ziling had been in contact with Jing Yichen and Jing Rui. Both of them were smart and intelligent. Jingsheng enterprise was developed in many fields and it was impossible for family Lou to get rid of family Jing in five years.
This was something that no one could do. Otherwise, Li Jing, a youngdy who had everything she wanted, wouldnt have used herself as a bargaining chip to win over an ordinary Lou family!
Its unlikely, but what if it seeds? Wealthes from danger, you want the family to grow quickly without taking any risks, is that possible?
Li Jings tone gradually became cold. She had thought that their cooperation would go smoothly this time.
In her opinion, the conditions she proposed were beneficial to the Lou family. Lou Ziling would definitely not refuse such a rare opportunity.
However, she did not expect Lou Ziling to be so stubborn. Not only was she not interested in the cooperation, but she was also not interested in her at all!
Li Jing thought that her appearance was enough to make men fall head over heels for her. Even Lou Ziling, who had a strong will, wouldnt be unmoved when she saw her.
So far, Jing Rui was the only one she had met who waspletely immune to her.
Lou Ziling, Ill give you time to think about it. If you dont want to, Ill have to find someone else to work with!
Li Jing stood up and walked away in her high heels.
Lou Ziling sat there alone, deep in thought.
Li Jing must have other ns he didnt know about, but she was right. Risk and opportunity coexisted!
She said that she didnt choose the Lou family, but he.
Lou Ziling thought about it carefully, but she couldnt find anything special about herself.
His name was unknown in A city. Very few people knew about him, and very few people knew about his strength in all aspects. Even in the eyes of his acquaintances, he was just a serious loner and strange person.
If there was anything special about him, it might be that he was very close to Jing Xi, so close that Jing Xi had no defense against him.
Could it be that Li Jings target was Jing Xi?
But even if she killed Jing Xi, it would not shake the foundation of the Jing family. Instead, it would cause Jing Yichen and Jing Rui to take revenge.
Li Zhi had even gambled on her own lifelong event, so her request must be very big!
The coffee in Lou Zilings hand turned cold, but he didnt take a sip. He remained in the same position for a long time.
If Jing Xi wasnt li Jings target, why had she chosen him?
Li Jing must have already investigated him thoroughly. His rtionship with Jing Xi was not a secret. As long as she looked into it carefully, it would be easy to find out that he had been with Jing Xi for a long time.
Lou Ziling knew that this might be the only shortcut for the rapid rise of the Lou family.
Marrying Li Jing and working with her meant that he could use all the channels of the Li family to expand thepanys production scale and make the Lou family the worlds top sporting goods manufacturer!
However, he had to bet on the Lou familys future and Jing Xis life.
It was already dark, but the phone kept ringing from home, as if urging him to go home, but he didnt pick up.
Lou Ziling stood up and went to the cashier to pay. She took herptop and walked out of the coffee shop.
It was drizzling outside, and there were few people on the street. Under the street lights, the beautiful pink figure seemed a little special.
Chapter 1455
Chapter 1455: One can only be invulnerable without emotion
Trantor: 549690339
She held a transparent umbre and walked towards him happily.
The umbre moved to the top of his head, and her pink dress was wet from the rain.
Due to the huge height difference, it was a little difficult for her to tiptoe and hold the umbre.
Lou Ziling, what are you doing here? This caf is owned by my second uncle. The next time youe, tell him my name and hell give you a 50% discount!
Her smile was exceptionally bright in the rain, and her voice was particrly crisp in the dark.
Lou Ziling didnt know what was going on. She felt as if something had hit her deep in her heart. It was painful and heavy.
Perhaps, in the future, he would personally bury this happy and lively little girl in front of him!
But she knew nothing about it.
She didnt know that a few hours ago, he had wavered on a demons suggestion.
If he cooperated with the devil, he would also be a cruel and merciless devil!
Lou Zilings heart was in turmoil, but taking care of Jing Xi seemed to have be a habit. He ced hisptop into the car and closed the door. He subconsciously took the umbre from her hand and held it over her head. Dont go out alone thiste.
Jing Xi leaned against Lou Zilings side. She felt that his action of holding the umbre for her was natural and warm, and she felt inexplicably happy.
It was a pity that she was still too short. She would have been better if she had grown a little taller!
Next year, she would be sixteen next year, and she would definitely grow taller!
I didnt go out alone, my bodyguards were following me! You see, the one in front and the one behind, theyre both very powerful!
Jing Xi pointed out the bodyguards positions to Lou Ziling with a smile. Lou Ziling took a look and instantly remembered their positions.
Dont tell anyone where the bodyguards are. Its not safe.
Jing Xi suddenly took Lou Zilings arm and raised her fair and delicate face. She smiled at him.But youre not just anyone!
Her eyes were so clear and pure. Lou Zilings cold and indifferent face was reflected in her ck and white pupils, which hurt Lou Zilings eyes.
Lou Ziling suddenly stopped and pulled Jing Xi into her arms.
Caught off guard, Jing Xis face hit his hard chest.
Just as she was about to cry out in pain, Lou Zilings low and hoarse voice came from above her head.Jing Xi, Im someone else.
Jing Xi hugged Lou Zilings broad waist and pressed her face against his chest.Although it hurts, I like it when you hug me like this. Can you hug me for a while longer?
Jing Xi didnt care about other people at all.
Even if she didnt have any bodyguards, she would still be safe. She was strong enough to protect herself.
She felt that Lou Zilings worry was unnecessary, but she liked it when Lou Ziling was worried about her.
However, what Jing Xi did not know was that Lou Zilings dark eyes were cold and emotionless.
After a while, Lou Ziling pushed Jing Xi away and said,Ill send you back.
He subconsciously held the umbre over Jing Xis side. His clothes were wet from the rain, but he didnt feel it.
Why did youe here to drink coffee? Is it because this ce is close to my house?
Lou Ziling didnt know why he was here. He drove the car and unknowingly drove around here.
Perhaps, without him knowing, Jing Xi had already begun to slowly seep into his life.
Many of his actions had already broken his habits and cold style.
In the past, he would not care if the people around him were wet from the rain. He would never hold an umbre for others.
He should have continued to be cold.
Any emotion was the source of weakness. Without emotion, one would be invulnerable!
Jing Xis house was very close to the coffee shop, so Lou Ziling sent her home five minutester.
It was not until he had sent Jing Xi home that Lou Ziling realized that he had forgotten that he had a car when he saw Jing Xi.
Walking to Jing Xis house was the least efficient and time-consuming way. More importantly, he waspletely drenched.
In the past, Lou Ziling would never have chosen this method.
He watched Jing Xi enter the house before he turned around and left for the coffee shop to get his car.
Jing Xi stood by the window and watched Lou Zilings tall figure disappear in the rain. The smile on her face was gone.
She turned on her phone and dialed a number.
Go and find out who Lou Ziling met today. I want detailed information.
Jing Xi hung up the phone and deleted the number from her phone.
A girls heart was usually soft and sensitive, especially when she was very attentive to someone.
In fact, Jing Xi had noticed Lou Zilings unusual behavior very quickly.
Normally, Lou Ziling wouldnt talk to her. But today, she hugged her.
Jing Xis heart ached as she thought of his warm embrace.
Under his warm body temperature was a cold and proud heart. Perhaps nothing in this world could move him!
The man Jing Yichen had sent to her was very efficient. Jing Xi received a reply very soon.
Jing Xi had watched the video of Lou Ziling and Li Jing meeting many times.
The video came from the cafs surveince equipment. There were only images and no sounds.
However, this was not a problem for Jing Xi. She could read lips.
Jing Xi didnt know Li Jing, but it didnt matter. Jing Yichens men had already sent Li Jings details to her email.
After reading the information and videos, Jing Xi had the same question as Lou Ziling. Why did Li Jing choose Lou Ziling?
Since the Li family was involved, Jing Yichens men had already reported the meeting between Lou Ziling and Li Jing to him.
Although Lou Ziling had not agreed to cooperate with the Li family, Jing Yichen still called his daughter.Xixi, stay away from Lou Ziling.
Jing Xi was silent for a long time before she slowly said,Dad, he rejected the Li family, didnt he? Tonight, he even sent me home. It was raining outside, but he protected me the whole time and held an umbre for me, not letting me get wet.
Yan Fan will protect you and hold an umbre for you. He will do even better. Hai Rong will do the same.
Yan Fan was the ck-shirted bodyguard who had been by Jing Xis side since she was a child and was responsible for her safety.
Hai Rong was a new female bodyguard that Jing Yichen had hired for herst year.
Dad, its different. I trust my intuition. Lou Ziling wont harm me.
It was Jing Yichens turn to be silent this time.
He rarely doubted his own decisions, but at this moment, he began to doubt whether he had made the wrong decision to allow Lou Ziling to get close to Jing Xist year.
Chapter 1456
Chapter 1456: I miss you, dont go
Trantor: 549690339
Maybe Jing Xi and Lou Ziling didnt understand why Li Zhi had chosen Lou Ziling, but Jing Yichen knew the reason the moment he got the news.
To Jing Yichen, Jing Rui was the heir of family Jing and his son. His life was precious, but Jing Rui was not his weakness.
Jing Xi was the one!
And Jing Xi was also Jing Ruis weakness!
Li Jing had been living in peace with the Jing family for many years. Jing Rui had something on her, so she did not dare to act rashly.
And Jing Rui did not kill her because she was Shuyins sister.
No one could do anything to the other, and the two families maintained a delicate bnce.
Lou Ziling was the first person to enter Jing Xis life in more than a decade. Li Jing was right. Her vision and strategy were as sharp as ever!
Jing Yichen couldnt protect Jing Xi forever, so when Jing Xi was growing up, he taught her more survival skills and the rules of survival, rather than just protecting her and turning her into a little white flower in the greenhouse.
There were many things that she could only understand his painstaking efforts and how she should walk down the road in the future if she experienced it herself.
Okay, you can handle Lou Zilings matter. I am just taking precautions. Lou Mingyang is a good man and his loyalty to family Jing has been tested. Lou Ziling shouldnt be too bad.
After hanging up the phone, Jing Xi sat on the sofa in a daze.
Lou Ziling didnt agree to Li Jings request, but why did she still feel so upset?
Was it because he had been in a rtionship with Li Zhi for so long that he didnt reject her and drive her away?
Or was it because of his unusual behavior today, which showed his inner struggle?
It was rare for him to take the initiative to hug her. She was very happy at first, thinking that Lou Ziling had finally opened her mind.
However, he didn t. His heart was still cold.
Outside the window, lightning shed and Thunder rumbled. The light rain had turned into a heavy downpour.
Jing Xi put on her shoes and ran out of the house.
She ran across the street and stopped in front of the caf that Jing Yiran owned.
The caf was already closed, and it was dark inside. Only a silver BMW was parked in the open space in front of the caf.
The BMWs door opened, and a tall figure came out.
He picked up the drenched Jing Xi and quickly got into the back seat of the car.
Are you crazy? Why did youe out in such a heavy rain?
Lou Ziling was furious. This car was given to the Lou family by Luo feichuo. There was no nket in it. He quickly took off his clothes and wrapped Jing Xis trembling body.
Tears welled up in Jing Xis eyes, mixing with the rain on her face.
She suddenly hugged Lou Zilings neck and cried,I miss you, dont go!
Lou Ziling froze and her mind went nk.
She braved the storm toe out just to find him?
They had been separated for three hours. Wasnt she afraid that he would have left by the time she ran out?
What if he left, and she was left to cry in the rain?
Why didnt her bodyguards stop her?!
Lou Ziling slowly hugged Jing Xi and tightened her arms. They had only been apart for three hours, and she was already missing him?
Lou Ziling held her petite body in his arms. He didnt care that her clothes were wet from the rain. He only felt that her tears on his chest were a little cold.
Dont cry. If your eyes are swollen, you wont be able to attend the engagement party tomorrow.
Lou Ziling gently wiped Jing Xis tears and said in a low voice,Dont run out like this when it rains in the future, do you hear me?
Jing Xi listened to his voice, but she couldnt detect a trace of pretense in his concern.
There was finally a trace offort in the depths of her uneasy heart.
I was afraid of the rain and thunder. I was alone at home, so I came out to find you.
In fact, Jing Xi had never been afraid of storms, lightning, or loneliness. Lou Ziling knew all of this.
She was just looking for an excuse to get close to him!
Lou Ziling closed her eyes and felt her willpower weakening.
He was the first outsider to enter Jing Xis life, and Jing Xi was the first to enter his life.
However,pared to Jing Xi, who was getting deeper and deeper into his life, he was slowly stripping Jing Xi away from his life.
Ill send you back. Youll catch a cold like this.
Lou Ziling was about to push Jing Xi away and get into the drivers seat.
However, Jing Xi hugged him tightly and said in a low voice,Im not going back. Lou Ziling, hug me. Dont let go. Im scared
All of Lou Zilings defenses were shattered in an instant. He couldnt help but sit back down and hold Jing Xi again.
Xixi, whats wrong?
Lou Ziling rarely called Jing Xi by her full name or nickname. At this moment, his voice was unexpectedly gentle, and Jing Xi could not help but stick closer to him.
Im fine. I just dont like the rain.
Lou Ziling didnt know if Jing Xi used to have a preference for the weather, but when he was on the ind, he had observed in secret that Jing Xi really didnt like rainy days.
But even if she didnt like rainy days, Jing Xi didnt need to rely on him so much.
Lou Ziling didnt ask further. It was normal for Jing Xi to be unwilling to tell him her secrets.
He had also never told anyone about the secret in his heart.
Lou Ziling adjusted his position to make Jing Xi morefortable. Then, he picked up the sleeve of the coat that was draped over Jing Xis body and dried her hair.
Lou Ziling never knew that one day he would be so thoughtful and thoughtful towards a girl. He also did not expect that one day he would be so used to hugging the little girl he had saved.
Jing Xi had never been so close to anyone other than Shangguan ning. After she grew up, she was not used to anyone touching her hair or body.
Lou Ziling was an exception.
Every time she leaned on Lou Ziling, Jing Xi would feel safe.
She couldnt imagine him marrying Li Jing!
If the Jing family wasnt so powerful that Lou Ziling was afraid of betraying them, he would have agreed to Li Jings request.
What she had, Li Jing had. What she didnt have, Li Jing had!
A strong and ambitiouspetitor!
Jing Xi leaned on Lou Zilings body, and many thoughts shed through her mind.
She wasnt confident that she could keep Lou Zilings heart. He was different from the others she had met.
He had a strong will, the courage to burn his boats, and a heart that would never soften because of emotions.
If there were no outsiders, Jing Xi felt that no one could surpass her and leave a deep mark in Lou Zilings life.
Unfortunately, the interference came too early!
Chapter 1457
Chapter 1457: If you want to betray
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi thought about many things, but perhaps Lou Zilings arms were too warm, so she fell asleep without knowing.
The lights in the car shone on her smooth and wless face, making her skin look soft and delicate, like the most beautiful white jade, intoxicating.
Lou Ziling looked at the girl in her arms. When did she be so beautiful?
Her hair was wet and stuck to her cheeks. Lou Ziling was afraid that she would feel ufortable, so she gently tucked her hair behind her ears.
She was still young, still a child. There was still a childishness in her exquisite eyes, and there was also a hint of willfulness.
However, it was because of her stubbornness and her carefreeness that she did not care about his indifference and his repeated rejections and estrangement.
Lou Ziling knew that any girl would not be able to stand his temper.
Even his mother and sister often couldnt stand his reticence and oftenined with a headache.
Lou Ziling closed her eyes and took a deep breath to clear away the strange emotions in the depths of her heart.
He wanted to let go of Jing Xi and get into the drivers seat, but when he looked up, he saw six tall figures standing outside his car in the dark.
These were Jing Xis bodyguards, and it was not the two that Jing Xi had mentioned before!
Jing Xi must have been telling the truth. The extra four must have been bodyguards in the dark, but she did not know that.
Lou Zilings heart trembled. He knew that Jing Xi must have many masters around her!
Otherwise, Jing Yichen wouldnt have left Jing Xi alone in the United States.
Jing Xi lived in Jing Yirans house, but Jing Yiran was not at home most of the time. Lou Ziling had apanied Jing Xi in the United States for so long, but he had only seen Jing Yiran once. He did not know what he was busy with.
Lou Ziling felt that Jing Yiran must be working for Jing Yichen. He couldnt travel around the world every day.
Yan Fan, who had been by Jing Xis side all year round, opened the door and sat in the drivers seat.
He looked calm and nodded at Lou Ziling as usual. He smiled as a greeting, then started the car and drove to Jing Xis residence.
It was only when Lou Ziling lowered her head to look at Jing Xi that Yan Fan took a look at Lou Ziling through the rearview mirror.
He had received Jing Yichens order to increase the level of protection when Jing Xi was with Lou Ziling.
That was why there were six bodyguards tonight.
However, Yan Fan did not think that Lou Ziling would harm Jing Xi.
If Jing Yichen had seen how Lou Ziling held Jing Xi and how Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xi, he wouldnt have been so worried.
Lou Ziling was cold and unsociable, but he also had a gentle side.
For example, he was afraid that the bumps in the car would wake Jing Xi up, so he had been holding her carefully, and his eyes never left Jing Xis face.
Back at Jing Xis residence, Lou Ziling carried Jing Xi out of the car and all the way to her bedroom.
He put Jing Xi on the bed and sat by the bed, watching her quietly.
The wind and rain outside became lighter. Lou Ziling stood up and walked out.
He couldnt continue to stay by her side, or it would seriously affect his judgment.
Jing Xi opened her eyes slowly after Lou Ziling left.
She slept for a while, but when Lou Ziling carried her out of the car, she woke up.
As long as she wasnt sick, her alertness wouldnt be too bad. She still knew that someone was carrying her.
He had sent her back twice in one day, and Jing Xis heart felt much better.
She only realized today how important Lou Ziling was to her. He was so important that she would feel sad when he talked to other women.
Jing Xi could not sleep well the whole night. She kept dreaming until the sky was bright, and the sun came out. She finally got out of the dream and fell asleep.
When she woke up, it was already past ten in the morning.
Jing Xi immediately sat up and quickly got out of bed to wash up.
Her makeup artist and stylist were already waiting in the living room. Since she was going to attend the engagement party today, she had to dress up properly.
Fortunately, Jing Xi was already beautiful enough, and she was still young, so she didnt need to put on much makeup. She only needed to touch up a little.
At 11:30, Jing Xi was ready to go out.
She was wearing a beautiful and festive peach-colored long dress. When she opened the door and saw the person standing outside, she was momentarily stunned. Then, she cheered and pounced on him.Father, why are you here? I miss you so much!
Jing Yichen patted his daughters back.Little liar, Im afraid youre thinking of someone else!
Jing Xi knew that he was referring to Lou Ziling. She snorted and let go of Jing Yichen.I miss my mother, she loves me the most!
Jing Xi had not hugged Jing Yichen ever since she had grown up. She was so surprised and happy that she had jumped into his arms. She understood the difference between men and women. Although she would chase after handsome men with great interest, she would never have physical contact with the opposite sex.
Of course, Lou Ziling was an exception.
Jing Yichen was not used to being close to his daughter who had grown up. He smiled and said,Your mom hasnt been feeling well these past two days, so I didnt ask her toe. When I go back this time, you shoulde home and stay for a few days. Shell get better faster when she sees you all happy and cheerful.
Whats wrong with mom?Jing Xi asked nervously. Was he sick? Wasnt she still fine when I video-called her two days ago?
Its nothing. I just caught a cold and have a slight fever.
Aiya, mom is sick. You should be at home taking care of her!
I thought so too, Jing Yichen said helplessly,but she knew about Lou Ziling and she was afraid that you would be sad, so she ordered me to back you up. My wifes life is difficult to handle, so I can onlye!
Jing Xi shook her head.I was wondering why you suddenly came to the United States I was eating tree bark and drinking rain on the ind, but I didnt see you. Im living like a god now, and youre here!
Jing Yichen got into the car with Jing Xi. He looked calm and didnt give any exnation. He just let his daughterin.
Of course, he had already made sufficient preparations for his daughters safety before he let go.
Shangguan ning alone was enough to keep Jing Xipany. He didnt need to worry about his daughters life anymore.
To him, taking care of his wife was still the most important thing.
If Shangguan ning hadnt insisted that hee, he wouldnt have left Shangguan ning toe to the United States.
Jing Yichen was relieved to see that Jing Xi was still as energetic and cheerful as before, as if she had not been the one who was sadst night.
He instructed the chauffeur to drive to the Luo familys residence.
He wanted to support his daughter openly and let the Lou family and Lou Ziling know how powerful Jing Xi was.
If he betrayed them, the price would be too heavy for the Lou family to bear!
Chapter 1458
Chapter 1458: I never realized
Trantor: 549690339
Luo feilies engagement party only invited his own rtives and a small number of prominent friends and business partners.
No one had expected that Jing Yichen, who had never attended any wedding or banquet, would show up at an engagement party of the Luo family.
He received the highest level of reception and courtesy from the Luo family.
Lou Mingyang didnt expect that he woulde either. When he saw Jing Yichen, he even took Lou Ziling to make a toast.
However, Jing Yichen was always calm and distant. He was not very close to anyone, except for the asional conversation with Jing Xi. He didnt care about thepliments of others.
Jing Xi was always by Jing Yichens side. She had a smile on her face and greeted Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang as usual. Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang, on the other hand, were dressed very formally today. They were very formal when they saw Jing Yichen and never joked with Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling stood not far away and looked at Jing Xi, who seemed to be shining. He slowly drank the wine in the quilt.
He saw that Luo Feiyang, who had always been aggressive and arrogant, had restrained himself. He was so well-behaved in front of Jing Yichen.
Many people were eager to show off in front of Jing Yichen, including Lou Mingyang.
Even the two leaders of the Luo family, Luo gang and Luo Yi, were talking to Jing Yichen with a ss of wine.
Unfortunately, Jing Yichen didnt stay for long. He left with Jing Xi soon after.
Watching Jing Yichen and Jing Xis disappearing figures, Lou Ziling felt even more stressed.
In the past, when Jing Xi was alone, the Jing familys status was not obvious. But when Jing Yichen showed up, the Jing familys status was immediately revealed.
Lou Ziling suddenly felt that what she had discussed with Li Jing about her ambition to surpass family Jing was a joke.
Not to mention the Jing family, even the Luo family and the Ji family were not families that the Lou family could catch up with in a short time.
When Jing Yichen was here, no one dared to speak loudly. After he left, the atmosphere became livelier, but he was still the topic of conversation.
Luo gang and Luo Yi looked very happy, as if it was a great honor for Jing Yichen to attend Luo feilies engagement party.
The elder sister, Lou ruofei, also looked very happy. She followed Luo feilue and toasted to their friends and family with fruit juice.
The main hall was bustling with noise and excitement. Lou Ziling was the only one who was leaning against the corner, trying to suppress the turmoil in her heart.
The desire to be stronger was getting stronger and stronger!
He didnt know if the Lou family would surpass the Jing family after working with Li Jing, but it was inevitable that they would be stronger than they were now.
He needed to carefully consider the feasibility of this n.
Lou Mingyang was drinking happily with others. When he turned around, he found that his son was gone.
He looked around and finally found Lou Ziling in the corner. She looked cold and arrogant.
Didnt I tell you to follow me? The people who came today were all business elites, and there might be opportunities for cooperation in the future. He had to seize it! Quickly follow me to propose a toast. If you miss today, it will be difficult to talk to these people!
Lou Ziling held her empty wine ss and nodded.Alright, he said.
He didnt like to socialize, but he was slowly changing because of the strong pressure.
He was growing rapidly.
She followed Lou Mingyang around and got to know almost everyone who came to the engagement party.
Maybe it was because of the marriage with the Luo family, or maybe it was because everyone here knew that the Lou family was affiliated with the Jing family. They were extra polite to Lou Mingyang and Lou Ziling. Lou Mingyang smiled happily, but Lou Ziling could not.
A persons true strength was not by relying on external forces, but by relying on himself.
If he offended Jing Xi and the Jing family one day, all the glory of the Lou family would be gone.
Lou mingzhens lesson was still fresh in his mind. Lou Ziling didnt want his family to follow in his footsteps.
Lou Ziling nned to visit all the people she met today. There must be a business opportunity.
He didnt want to let go of any opportunity to be stronger.
Only when he was strong enough would he have the confidence to stand in front of Jing Xi and tell her,I wont make use of you, I wont lie to you, I wont run away.
Lou Ziling didnt speak much, but he looked extremely calm. His posture was straight, his temperament was noble, and his appearance was so good that he quickly attracted everyones attention in the banquet hall.
Many people had already asked Lou Mingyang about Lou Zilings age and marital status.
When they heard that he was unmarried, had no girlfriend, and was young and promising, many people looked at him with joy.
Lou Ziling heard people talking about him, but she pretended not to hear anything. She looked calm and indifferent.
To him, all women were the same. Marriage would be one of the effective ways to promote the rise of the Lou family. The risk of marriage with Li Jing was too high, but there would be no concerns if he married other families.
Lou Ziling had never realized that he was indifferent to using other women, but he could not ept using Jing Xi.
Luo Feiyang was sitting together with Ji moxuan. As he ate the squab that was roasted to perfection, heined,Xixi left too early. I wanted to show off in front of her father, but I didnt even have the chance!
Ji moxuan took a look at Lou Ziling, who was the second focus of attention after Jing Yichen. He looked away and said in a neutral tone,Stop daydreaming. I have the best chance, followed by Lou Ziling, and then you!
Luo Feiyang was so angry that he stopped eating his favorite squab.
He also looked at Lou Ziling, who was wearing a suit, and said,Nonsense! Its fine if you, a hypocrite, are ranked before me, but why is Lou Ziling, that ice block, ranked before me? Wasnt he just better looking? Can a pretty face be eaten?
Youll know when you see the attitude of the people around you. I just heard people asking if he has a girlfriend. There are many people who want to marry him.
Are these people blind?
Luo Feiyang also heard the discussions around him. He touched his face and said indignantly,Im so handsome! She was much more likable than Lou Ziling! Why dont they talk to my dad about my marriage?
Ji moxuan was a little speechless,just based on your reputation as a yboy. Which decent youngdy would be willing to marry you? And look at how old you are and how old Lou Ziling is! Hes 22, youre 18!
Luo Feiyang was just about to retort when his eyes suddenly lit up.Isnt that great? Ask Lou Ziling to marry someone else and leave Xixi to me! I like her more and more now. Shes so beautiful today, I cant wait to marry her!

However, Ji moxuan shook his head.You have seen the power of the Jing family today. From the current situation of the Lou family, no matter who Lou Ziling marries, she cantpare to Xixi. Xixi also treats Lou Ziling in a special way. I still feel a little worried.
Whats there to be worried about?
Luo Feiyang suddenly stood up. He held a ss of red wine and walked towards Lou Mingyang and Lou Ziling.
Ji moxuan was stunned for a moment before he quickly followed after her.
Uncle Lou, this junior offers you a toast! Sister-inw will be in our house in the future. You can rest assured that we will be a family in the future! Aiyo, uncle, my name has the same character as your name. What fate! Its not like were one family, hahaha!
Luo Feiyang spoke very affectionately, causing Ji moxuan, who was behind him, to have goosebumps all over.
Although Luo Feiyang was a bit arrogant, he was a man of his word. He had been very obedient when he saw Jing Yichen just now.
This time, Lou Mingyangs face was full of smiles.
Feiyang is right, but were a family! Ziling, Feiyang will be your little brother from now on. As an older brother, you should take care of him!
Lou Ziling looked at her younger brother coldly and replied.
Lou Mingyang felt that his son was too cold. He patted his sons back to signal him to be more enthusiastic.
However, Lou Ziling was unmoved. Her eyes were still frighteningly cold.
Luo Feiyang didnt seem to mind Lou Zilings coldness. He seemed to havepletely forgotten that he was beaten up by Lou Ziling.
Uncle Lou, I heard that brother Ziling doesnt have a girlfriend yet, right? he continued to smile. I know a girl who is not only pretty but also has a good family background. Why dont I introduce her to you? Were a family, so I really wont introduce him to anyone else!
Lou Mingyang didnt know that Luo Feiyang was afraid that Lou Ziling would have designs on Jing Xi. He had never thought of letting his son marry a proud girl like Jing Xi. When he heard that Luo Feiyang wanted to introduce a girl, he was very happy.Sure, its good to make a few more friends!
Lou Mingyang wasnt stupid. He directly defined the introduction of a girlfriend as meeting a friend. In this way, even if the introduction failed, the Lou family wouldnt be too embarrassed.
Luo Feiyang didnt care at all. Heughed and said,Alright, its a deal. Ill introduce them to youter. I guarantee that youll have a grandson soon!
Lou Ziling sneered in her heart when she heard Luo Feiyangs deviousughter.
Luo Feiyang was definitely up to no good, but he was not to be trifled with!
The day after the engagement party, Lou Ziling left for home. He thought he could manage thepany in peace. He didnt expect that Luo Feiyang would show up in his office in just three days.
Lou Ziling frowned.Is this guy still here? She actually followed him all the way from United States to city A!
Lets go, Lou Ziling. Ive introduced you to a rich girl. Your father said that you should go and meet her.
Im not free!Lou Ziling replied coldly.
Are you really not going? If you dont go, Ill have to send her directly to your house! If not, its not a bad idea to send it to your office as a mistress!
Luo Feiyang had the air of a rich young master. He was dressed in a gray id casual outfit and a pair of sunsses, looking handsome.
Unfortunately, his handsomeness was only useful for girls. It had no effect on Lou Ziling.
If you want to get another beating, then continue to be so long-winded!
Luo Feiyang knew that he could not defeat Lou Ziling. Seeing that Lou Ziling did not agree, he snorted and walked away slowly.
Anyway, he had other ways. Today, he mainly came to see the Lou familyspany and see what Lou Ziling had to rely on to pursue Jing Xi.
However, after he arrived, he realized that the Lou family was in a worse state than he had imagined.
He felt that Jing Xi would definitely not marry into the Lou family, so he felt a lot more at ease. Next, he could go to the Ji family and cause a scene.
Of course, these were not the main reasons why Luo Feiyang came to A city. The main reason was that Jing Xi had returned to A city.
She was busying back to see her mother, so her little nephew, Luo Feiyang, also came to A city to join in the fun.
Luo Feiyang was very familiar with city A. He had lived here for a few years and the Luo family had quite a lot of assets in city A.
Lou Ziling received a call from her father as soon as Luo Feiyang left.
Ziling, Feiyang has introduced a girl to you. Go and meet her!
Hes gone!
Lou Ziling refused coldly. What kind of good person could Luo Feiyang introduce to her?
Ziling, Feiyang might be a little out of sorts, but the girl he introduced to you this time is really suitable!
On the other end of the phone, Lou Mingyangs tone was serious. He didnt seem to be joking.
That girl is from A city. She just came back from studying in the United States. Shes 21 years old and her name is Wen Yan. Shes the second daughter of the Wen family,
Lou Ziling was stunned. The Wen family?
This was one of the families that Lou Mingyang had considered marriage.
Why would Luo Feiyang introduce him to the Wen family?
Lou Ziling was a little suspicious but she didnt know that Luo Feiyang had put in 120% of his effort to help him find the best and most suitable girl for him to get married soon. He didnt do it half-heartedly.
Lou Ziling was silent for a moment before she agreed.Alright, Ill go and meet him!
If they really had to choose a marriage alliance, it would be better to do it as soon as possible. The earlier the marriage alliance, the more help they would have, and the faster the family would develop.
In the evening, Luo Feiyang came out of the Ji familys house. He was surprised and happy to know that Lou Ziling had agreed to meet Wen Yan.
He immediately arranged a time and ce for the two of them to meet, and happily acted as a matchmaker.
However, while being a matchmaker, he also happily invited Ji moxuan and Jing Xi to witness the birth of a new couple.
The next day, on a sunny day, Ji moxuan and Jing Xi arrived at the caf that Luo Feiyang had pointed out. Both of them looked confused, not knowing why Luo Feiyang had called them out.
Jing Xi was having a headache. She could not get rid of Luo Feiyang when they were in the United States, but why was he still haunting her after they returned to A city?
She still wanted to stay with Jing Rui and Shuyin and y with her cute and smart nephew for a while longer.
Soon, Jing Xi could not care less about her little nephew.
She saw Lou Ziling walk into the caf and sit down in front of a gentle woman. The two of them started to chat.
Ji moxuan saw Lou Ziling as well. He was frowning when Luo Feiyang entered the caf in high spirits. He walked straight towards him and Jing Xi and sat beside them.
You two are early! Haha, I have introduced a girlfriend to Lou Ziling. How is she? shes pretty, right?
Chapter 1460
Chapter 1460: I will be your girlfriend
Trantor: 549690339
His girlfriend?
Ji moxuans eyes lit up!
Jing Xi, who was sitting next to him, frowned.
Beautiful. Not bad, not bad. I didnt expect the second young master of the Luo family to be so reliable!
Ji moxuan felt that Luo Feiyangs brain finally worked for once. He stared at Lou Ziling and Wen Yan, who were a few tables away, for a while and a smile appeared on his face.
Wen Yans appearance was indeed not bad. Although she was not the stunning type, she had a gentle temperament. When she smiled, there were two shallow dimples on her face, which made it easy for people to have a good impression of her.
At least, Ji moxuan felt that she was very suitable for Lou Ziling.
Which part is pretty? Youre not pretty at all!
Jing Xi looked at Wen Yan, who was smiling gently at Lou Ziling from a dozen meters away. She felt that her smile was particrly piercing.
She rarely got angry, but at that moment, her eyes were as cold as a knife. She suddenly nced at Luo Feiyang, who was sitting diagonally opposite her, and said coldly,Dont introduce any woman to Lou Ziling in the future. Otherwise, dont me me for being impolite!
Luo Feiyangs smug smile froze on his face. He looked at the cold and angry Jing Xi as if he didnt know her.
After knowing Jing Xi for so long, this was the first time Luo Feiyang had seen Jing Xi lose her temper.
It was also the first time he realized that there was a cold and indifferent emotion hidden behind her lively and magnanimous smile.
In fact, Jing Xi looked more like Shangguan ning. When she smiled, it was veryforting. But when she didnt smile, she was cold and distant.
Xixi, are you angry? Dont tell me you really like that pretty boy, Lou Ziling?
Luo Feiyangs brows were knitted together. He didnt care much about Jing Xis threat. In his eyes, a fifteen-year-old girl would not cause him any harm.
He only cared about Jing Xis attitude towards Lou Ziling.
Do you like Lou Ziling?
Jing Xi had the same question in her heart.
However, she still didnt know what love was, and she didnt know how long this love wouldst.
However, she knew that she would feel terrible when she saw Lou Ziling with another woman.
As for introducing a girlfriend to Lou Ziling, dont even think about it! She would never agree to it!
Ji moxuan was also a little surprised by Jing Xis reaction. He had thought that Lou Ziling had been pursuing Jing Xi, but now it seemed that it was not the case!
This was troublesome!
Xixi, Lou Ziling doesnt deserve you. Whether its his family background, ability, age, or personality, you two are not suitable for each other.
Yes, yes, you two are not suitable! Im the most suitable, and Im so handsome. Xixi, please consider me more!
Luo Feiyang rushed to show off. Although his words were as thick-skinned as ever, there was a hint of caution in his tone.
He was afraid of making Jing Xi angry, not because of the Jing familys power, but because he was afraid that Jing Xi would be angry and ignore him in the future.
Jing Xis eyes were still cold. She stood up and said slowly,Im not suitable for you guys either. I still have something to do, so Ill be leaving first!
As she said that, she walked toward Lou Ziling.
Luo Feiyang watched as she left them and walked towards Lou Ziling. He couldnt help but feel sad. He mumbled,I think Im pretty good. Why doesnt she like me
Ji moxuanughed bitterly.I also think that Im quite good. At least, Im better than you. You have hundreds of girlfriends, but I only have one, Wu Wei.
Luo Feiyangs frustration was instantly dispelled by Ji moxuans words. He red at him,Those are all my exes! Ex-ex-girlfriend! I dont even have a female fly by my side now, and Im keeping myself pure like jade!
You didnt learn yournguage well. You should go back to school and re-learn it. The phrase keep your body like jade doesnt suit you. The most suitable idiom for you is battle-hardened!
As the two Good Brothers started to attack each other again, Jing Xi had already stood in front of Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling saw the familiar pink dress but did not raise her head. Instead, she looked at Wen Yan indifferently and continued the conversation,Miss Wen, do you have any ns after you return to China?
In fact, he had already seen Jing Xi and Ji moxuan sitting there when he arrived at the caf. However, he pretended not to see them and sat down beside Wen Yan.
But he didnt expect Jing Xi toe to him.
Wen Yan didnt answer Lou Zilings question. Instead, she looked at Jing Xi with surprise and doubt. She asked hesitantly,Who are you?
Im his girlfriend! Jing Xi pointed at Lou Ziling.
Lou Zilings hand that was holding the coffee cup suddenly tightened, and a certain part in the depths of her heart skipped a beat.
He slowly raised his head, and Jing Xis cold gaze fell into his eyes.
Dont mess around, go back to your seat!
Im not messing around. From today onwards, Ill be your girlfriend! If you refuse, itll be easy. All thepanies in the Lou family will go bankrupt tomorrow!
The sun shone through the clean ss of the coffee shop and fell on Jing Xi, adding a touch of brilliance to her.
She had never used her familys power to oppress anyone, nor had she ever shown any of the willfulness and ruthlessness of the little princess of family Jing. But now, she used her most powerful weapon without any hesitation.
For Lou Ziling, this was the most direct and effective way!
Her coquettishness, begging, and persistence had no effect on Lou Ziling!
Then Im sorry, I can only use an effective method!
The power of her family had always been a part of her life, and Jing Xi had always been proud of it. She did not think there was anything wrong with using the power of her family.
It was obvious that Jing Xi was angry. Lou Ziling was familiar with her and could feel her anger.
However, when she heard that she was going to make the Lou familyspany close down, she was so angry that she couldnt speak for a while!
He didnt like to talk, and he didnt want to quarrel with Jing Xi.
Wen Yan, who was sitting across from Lou Ziling, suddenlyughed. She stroked her long hair elegantly and crossed her arms. She looked at Jing Xis young face and said in a gentle voice,Little girl, how old are you? Next time, dont learn to talk big when you go out. Even I dont dare to say that Ill make the Lou familyspany close down tomorrow!
Jing Xi had a broad vision and was influenced by Jing Yichen. She had a long-term vision and was not a calctive person, which was very different from ordinary girls.
She rarely hated someone, but at this moment, she felt that Wen Yan, who was pretending to be gentle and generous, was very annoying!
Whats your name?she looked at Wen Yan coldly.
My surname is Wen. As long as youre from A city, Im sure youve heard of it. The Wen family is-
Before Wen Yan could finish her sentence, Jing Xi interrupted her rudely,Ive never heard of it! You can leave now!
Chapter 1461
Chapter 1461: Dont even think about touching any woman
Trantor: 549690339
Wen Yan almost vomited blood!
She was born into an aristocratic family, had excellent academic results, and was beautiful. She had always been like the moon surrounded by stars since she was young, and she had never been scolded by a little girl!
She couldnt hold back her smile anymore. She looked at Lou Ziling with an aggrieved face. Her voice was soft and sweet. She seemed to be acting coquettishly. Whats going on? you already have a girlfriend, so why did you call me over? How can you bully me like this? Im not begging to marry you
I dont have a girlfriend. Shes only 15 years old. Shes still a child. You dont have to take her seriously, Lou Ziling said calmly.
Only fifteen?
Wen Yan heaved a sigh of relief. She turned to look at Jing Xi again. She was still a childish kid!
She had a good impression of Lou Ziling, who was extremely handsome, cold, and calm. Their families were well-matched, and she did not want their rtionship to be ruined.
She knew a lot of young masters! But none of them were as handsome as Lou Ziling who had never been in love.
No woman liked a romantic man. It was better to be cold and silent. This kind of man could be kept, and it would not be easy for a third party to interfere in the future. Their marriage life would be more stable and happy.
Wen Yan didnt think that a fifteen-year-old girl could win against her.
Moreover, Lou Ziling didnt seem to like this arrogant kid.
A gentle smile returned to Wen Yans face. She smiled at Jing Xi and said,Little girl, hurry up and go back to school. Youre still so young, youre not suitable for a rtionship yet! Its not good to be in a rtionship at such a young age. You might not be able to get into university in the future!
Jing Xi didnt hear a word of Wen Yans sarcasm. She had finished all the courses of elementary school, middle school and high school before she was ten years old. If it were not for Jing Yichen who wanted her to have more fun and gain more experience and knowledge, she would have graduated from a world-famous university at the age of twelve, just like her brother Jing Rui.
What Jing Xi cared about was not Wen Yans attitude, but Lou Ziling s.
She furrowed her pretty brows and stared at Lou Ziling. Youre choosing her and not me?
Lou Zilings voice was cold. This is my business, it has nothing to do with you!
Jing Xi picked up the cup of coffee beside him and poured it on Lou Zilings handsome face.
Ah! Wen Yan shrieked. She scolded Jing Xi,are you crazy? while she quickly took a tissue and gently wiped Lou Zilings face.
Lou Ziling sat there and looked at Jing Xi. She didnt avoid her gaze or say anything.
Jing Xi did not like it when other women touched Lou Ziling, not even with paper towels.
She picked up Wen Yans coffee and sshed it on her face.
Ah!
There was another scream, and this time, it was even louder and more exaggerated.
Wen Yan couldnt be bothered to wipe Lou Zilings face. She hurriedly found a clean tissue and wiped the coffee off her face as she cried. Her expensive and luxurious custom-made white Chanelle dress was already stained with coffee stains, which made her heart ache.
Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang, who were not far away, saw Jing Xis strong fighting power and suddenly sympathized with Lou Ziling.
After todays situation, Wen Yan probably wouldnt talk to Lou Ziling anymore!
Lou Ziling stood up slowly. When he saw Wen Yan crying, he said,Miss Wen, Im very sorry for what happened today. Lets meet another day and formally apologize to you then. Thats all for today. Ill take my leave first.
He grabbed Jing Xis wrist and dragged her out of the coffee shop. They got into his New ck Jaguar and left quickly.
The car suddenly stopped on a quiet road. Lou Ziling held the steering wheel tightly and said angrily,Can you stop your nonsense?!
Jing Xi sounded even angrier than Lou Ziling.We can not! I wont ept you being in a rtionship with any other woman!
Thats my own business!
I dont care, youre mine! Lou Ziling, dont even think about touching any woman! You have to wait for me to grow up!
Lou Zilings heart suddenly felt like it was being grabbed by something. It was as if her heart no longer belonged to him.
His anger dissipated, and his voice returned to calmness.I cant wait, and I wont wait. There was no point in waiting.
Jing Xi turned to him and asked sadly,Why? Didnt you say that you dont hate me?
Youre still young. When you grow up, youll forget me.
Three years, five years, or even ten years.
She was only fifteen years old now. When she was twenty-five, she would understand more things and clearly realize the gap between them. She would realize that he was using her, and she would forget him.
Im not young! I will never forget you!
Yes, there will be better people waiting for you. Dont ruin my blind dates in the future. I have limited energy.
Lou Zilings expression was cold. There was arge coffee stain on his white shirt, but he didnt care at all. Jing Xi had spilled coffee on him. He had always loved cleanliness, but he couldnt get angry at her.
If it was anyone else who had poured coffee on him, he might have beaten that person into the hospital.
You like that woman just now?
Lou Ziling remained silent and did not answer Jing Xi.
And Jing Xi did not seem to need his answer. She quickly replied,If you dont like her, I dont believe youll like her the first time you see her. Ive been with you for so long, but you dont like me. That Ms. Wen just now wasnt as pretty as me at all. She just had bigger breasts.
But it doesnt matter. Ill be big in two years. Im just a little slow in this area. If you still go on blind dates in the future, Ill still ruin them until no one is willing to marry you.
I used to blow up the building of Jingsheng enterprise, so it is a piece of cake for me to blow up otherpanies. Ill blow up whoever youre going on a blind date with, and Ill blow up the Lou family as well. Lets see who cant stand it first!
Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xi in the front passenger seat in shock. But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that Jing Xi really could do such a thing!
Her great achievements in her childhood were famous in the entire A city. At that time, no school dared to ept her, and she had always been a deception.
Lou Zilings face was gloomy. He said coldly,Youre only fifteen years old, youre not suitable for a rtionship! I wont like you even if you blow up the Lou family!
Its okay, it doesnt matter if you dont like me. You wont like anyone else anyway.
Jing Xis expression was cold, but there was a faint confidence on her face.I havent met a girl who is smarter and prettier than me yet. If you dont even like me, other women cant enter your heart either.
As she spoke, she took a piece of tissue paper from Lou Zilings car and wiped the coffee off Lou Zilings face.
Her voice was calm, and her breath hit Lou Zilings face.You wont give your heart to anyone casually, so I have to protect your body well. Whoever dares to touch you, Ill just chop off their hands!
Chapter 1462
Chapter 1462: The heartbeat
Trantor: 549690339
This overbearing and arrogant look was no less than that of Luo Feiyang s.
Jing Xi was too close to Lou Ziling, and her words were so direct that Lou Ziling felt a little ufortable. His ears turned red, and he felt as if he was being teased by a fifteen-year-old girl.
Lou Ziling reached out to take the tissue from Jing Xis hand to wipe his face, but Jing Xi refused to give it to him.Ill wipe it for you! You let miss Wen wipe it for you just now. Why Dont You Want Me to do it for you now? Do you really like her?
Jing Xi said with an unfriendly look in her eyes, as if she would immediately hit Lou Ziling if he said yes.
Lou Ziling looked up at the fierce little girl in front of her. She pouted her mouth and looked very cute. She was as fresh as the most crystal-clear dew in the morning.
He couldnt help but reveal a faint smile.Sit tight. Ill wipe it myself. I dont need you.
Jing Xi was surprised to see him smile.
Lou Ziling rarely smiled. Every time she smiled, the cold arrogance on her body would disappear. It was as if she had changed into a different person. People couldnt help but want to get closer to her.
Jing Xi thought for a while, then climbed onto Lou Zilingsp from the passengers seat. She sat on hisp and faced him.
This position was too ambiguous. Jing Xi didnt think much of it, but Lou Ziling was a 22-year-old man. A loud bang went off in her mind, and all the blood in her body was boiling!
Lou Ziling instinctively wrapped his arms around Jing Xis waist. He only realized what he had done when he put his hand on Jing Xis slender waist.
She wanted to take her hand back, but she couldnt bear to.
His palm passed through the thin clothes and passed a hot temperature to Jing Xi, making her face a little hot.
Jing Xi suddenly felt that maybe Lou Ziling did like her after all.
Perhaps he liked her a little?
This realization made her very happy. She unscrewed a bottle of mineral water, dipped a paper towel in the water, and gently wiped Lou Zilings face.
After he had wiped his face clean, Jing Xi said in a low voice,You could have dodged it, so why didnt you?
When she sshed Lou Zilings coffee, she was really angry. Now, her heart ached for him.
She didnt know if the coffee was hot or not, but Lou Zilings face was slightly red.
Lou Ziling lowered her head and looked at the girl in her arms. She had long hair, delicate eyes, and wless facial features. Her skin was fair and wless, and her red lips were tender and moist. She looked soft and fragrant, exuding an alluring aura that made people want to take a bite.
Lou Ziling almost couldnt control herself. Even her breathing was a little unstable.
He suddenly pulled Jing Xi into his arms. As Jing Xi struggled, Lou Ziling immediately growled,Dont move!
His voice was a little strange, and Jing Xis heart trembled. She did not dare to move, for fear of angering him and never hugging her again.
Sheid in Lou Zilings arms and felt that it was getting hotter and hotter. The happiness in her heart was about to overflow.
After a long time, she lifted her head from Lou Zilings arms and looked straight into Lou Zilings eyes. She bit her lip and said,Lou Ziling, your heart rate just exceeded 140 per minute!
Lou Ziling didnt say anything, but his fingers subconsciously stroked Jing Xis soft long hair. He probably didnt know how fast his heart had been beating just now.
Fortunately, he had good self-control. His face did not show any signs of abnormality, and his heartbeat gradually returned to normal.
He carried Jing Xi back to the passenger seat and wanted to drive away, but he turned around and leaned over to help Jing Xi fasten her seat belt.
When Lou Zilings face was so close to her, Jing Xi suddenly reached out and held his face. Her eyshes trembled slightly.Lou Ziling, you can only be good to me. You cant be so good to others. Wait for me. Im going to grow up soon.
This might be the most touching words of love that Lou Ziling had ever heard in her life.
Wait for me, wait for me to grow up!
Her soft little hands cupped his face, giving him a wonderful touch.
Unfortunately, he couldnt respond. He couldnt respond.
He drove Jing Xi home and sat in the car alone, silent.
He felt that he was surrounded by Jing Xis scent, soft, fragrant, and beautiful.
Every time he saw her, his willpower would weaken a little, and his hard shell would break ayer.
I cant see you again, I cant see you again.
She was only 15 and was still an underaged little girl who didnt know anything. But he wasn T. He was an adult and had to be responsible for what he said and did.
Its okay. She will definitely return to the United States in a few days. If we dont see her again, everything will return to normal.
Lou Ziling drove back to thepany. However, she was a little absent-minded for the whole afternoon.
This was something that had never happened before.
Even Lou Mingyang noticed his abnormality.Ziling, are you not feeling well? If youre not feeling well, go home and rest. You havent rested for months, and your body wont be able to take it if you continue like this.
Lou Ziling didnt even raise her head. She said indifferently,Im fine,she said.
Didnt you meet miss Wen today? Why did youe back so early? He should at least have lunch and dinner with her, and then take her to the movies! Do you even know how to fall in love!
No, Lou Ziling replied after a moment of silence.
He had never been in a rtionship, so he really didnt know how to coax girls.
As for watching a movie, he felt very bored. He had only watched TV shows with Jing Xi at her house under her pressure. He had never watched a movie with anyone else.
Lou Mingyang was anxious,if you dont know, then learn! How was the meeting with miss Wen today? Dont tell me youre cold and wont talk to me? Which girl can stand your personality! If you dont perform well today, quickly apologize to her! Even if we cant get married, we cant make enemies. The Wen family has a deep political background, we cant afford to offend them!
Alright, I got it!
After Lou Mingyang left, Lou Ziling really called Wen Yan.
Even without Lou Mingyangs reminder, he had to call Wen Yan. Wen Yan had suffered an undeserved disaster today.
The power of a family could not be underestimated. If they could cooperate with the Wen family, the Lou familys market would expand further.
The phone call went smoothly. Wen Yans voice was still gentle as if she didnt care about the coffee being poured on her. She was even concerned about Lou Zilings coffee burns.
Lou Zilings voice was still not warm, but it was not cold either.
He talked to Wen Yan and asked her out for a meal the next day as if they were discussing a coboration.
A weekter, Jing Xi returned to the United States Luo Feiyang followed her back. The Lou family also received the support of the Wen family. Thepanys orders increased rapidly. Lou Ziling became busier and busier.
At the same time, Wen Yan had officially be Lou Zilings girlfriend.

Chapter 1463: Lou Ziling, you have no heart
Trantor: 549690339
However, Lou Ziling was too cold. Apart from eating with Wen Yan and picking her up from work, she didnt do anything romantic. She didnt even know how to give flowers.
At first, Wen Yan liked his cold and cool appearance, but she couldnt stand it anymore after a month.
If Lou Ziling could reply to her 100 times, she would be considered very enthusiastic.
She might as well not have a boyfriend like this!
Otherwise, it would be easy to ruin her reputation if she went out and flirted with other members of the opposite sex in the name of having a boyfriend.
Two monthster, Wen Yan broke up with him.
Lou Ziling was still as indifferent as before. She even took Wen Yan to meet her new boyfriend and paid for their candlelight dinner.
Wen Yan was so touched that she introduced him to a new girlfriend.
The quality of the products of the Lou familyspany was excellent. Their production technology was first-ss, but their prices were the lowest in the industry. The Wen family was not stupid. They did not give up on their cooperation with the Lou family just because Wen Yan had broken up with Lou Ziling.
On the contrary, Lou Mingyang and Lou Ziling were serious about their work and had a good cooperative attitude. They never deliberately made things difficult for the Wen family. The Wen family deepened their cooperation with the Lou family.
That year, thanks to Lou Zilings hard work, the business of the Lou familyspany had increased by five times.
Lou Ziling had a new girlfriend. She wasnt from A city but she was the daughter of a Corporation. Her name was Han Yun.
Han Yun was a person who cared about appearance. She had been pursuing Lou Ziling crazily since the first time she saw him.
Han Yun was Wen Yans College ssmate. She didnt mind that Lou Ziling was Wen Yans ex-boyfriend or Lou Zilings coldness and arrogance. She considered herself Lou Zilings girlfriend every day. Lou Ziling neither denied nor admitted it.
However, the more intense the passion, the faster it would fade.
Only a monthter, Han Yun fell in love with someone else. Although she would still call Lou Ziling asionally, she no longer went to hispany to pester him.
However, Han Yun had given up on Lou Ziling, but the Han family had taken a fancy to Lou Ziling.
A week after the two broke up, the Han family took the initiative to cooperate with the Lou family.
Lou Ziling had a long-term vision. Hebined thepanys actual situation and carried out a bold and decisive reform. He fired a group of unqualified old employees and introduced arge number of talents.
The sports equipment manufactured by thepany had started to be ssified. New materials were introduced, and thetest high-end brands wereunched. The prices had been greatly increased.
He visited all the Presidents and directors that he had met at Lou ruofeis engagement banquet. The Lou familys sports equipment slowly began to be sold all over the world, and even appeared in countless world-ss sports events.
In the first quarter of the new year, the sales of thepanies managed by Lou Ziling had exceeded one billion Yuan.
This was the peak performance of the Lou family.
Lou Ziling was the youngest and most promising entrepreneur in A city. He was the most popr and had the highest worth among the top ten young talents in a city.
He was the second person to make an outstanding contribution to A city under the age of 25, after Jing Rui.
In July, in the hot summer, Lou Ziling inherited all the assets of the Lou family, merged with their subsidiarypanies, and bought over a dozen small sports equipment manufacturers to form the Lou group.
At the age of 23, Lou Ziling became the first president of Lous group.
He was as cold, proud, and quiet as ever. Only those close to him would realize that he was bing more and more mature, and he was bing less and less concerned about his girlfriend.
In August, his fifth girlfriend, ning ruoxing, broke up with him.
When they broke up, ning ruoxing was sad but determined. She said to Lou Ziling,
Lou Ziling, you dont have a heart.
Lou Ziling looked indifferent. She was still busy with thepanys Affairs and didnt reply.
He had never made any promises to anyone, not even to ning ruoxing. He did not even know when ning ruoxing became his girlfriend.
He had only been to the ning family once and visited the helmsman of the ning family. He had be close friends with the sessor of the ning family, ning ruochuan. Then, he had been pestered by ning ruoxing, who he had never met.
Of course, after ning ruoxing returned home and cried, her brother, ning ruochuan, came to settle the score with Lou Ziling and fought with her.
However, ning ruochuan had been beaten ck and blue by Lou Ziling. After a few days, he came to look for Lou Ziling again as if nothing had happened.
Ziling, our family has developed a new material. Do you want toe and take a look?
Youre such a workaholic. My sister is so beautiful Sigh, forget it. I dont want my sister to marry you. You work 24 hours a day, and you work 20 hours a day. Youd better go and ruin other people!
President Lou, do you not like women at all? do you want me to introduce you to some handsome guys?
Lou Ziling finally lifted her head from the documents and said,No, youre quite suitable.
Ning ruochuan jumped in shock. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and put on a stern and invible look.I dont like you! I only like beautiful women!
Ning ruochuan left with a cheeky smile and went to find a new boyfriend for her sad sister.
Lou Zilings assistant, Wu Shen, walked in and showed Lou Ziling thetest financial statement. He was a little confused when he saw the warm Jade Guanyin in Lou Zilings hand.
He had been Lou Zilings assistant for almost a year. He handled almost all of Lou Zilings Affairs. No one knew his work and rtionship better than Wu Shen.
Lou Ziling had always liked simplicity. Other than a watch, she had no other essories.
Wu Shen had seen the Jade Guanyin many times and it had be a habit for Lou Ziling.
The Jade was Hetian jade of excellent quality, smooth and clear, and it was obvious that it was valuable.
However, the carving was just average. The Guanyin seemed to have gained weight from eating too much. Its face was very big. Wu Shen guessed that it was a Guanyin.
It was obvious that someone had carved it and given it to Lou Ziling.
Wu Shen was confused. Who would give Lou Ziling such an ugly Jade essory? how could Lou Ziling carry it around with her?
In the United States, at a closed physical training ground.
Jing Xi wiped the sweat off her face with a white towel, took a shower, changed her clothes, and walked out of the training ground with her backpack.
Outside the door, Luo Feiyang was leaning on his luxurious red Porsche and waving at Jing Xi.Beauty, over here!
Jing Xi ignored him and walked straight to her car.
Luo Feiyang had no choice but to run to her side. He grabbed Jing Xis clothes and refused to let her get in the car.
Hey, hey, hey, at least give me some face! I brought you thetest news about Lou Ziling. Do you want to hear it? Theres no one else who can be a love rival to this extent! Ive been staring at Lou Ziling every day. Those who dont know might think that Ive fallen in love with him!
Jing Xi opened a bottle of water and took a sip.What? he has a new girlfriend?
Chapter 1464
Chapter 1464: Lou Ziling likes men
Trantor: 549690339
No, he broke up with histest girlfriend!
Oh, thats good.
But hes dating his ex-girlfriends brother again!
Pfft
Jing Xi spat out the water she had just drunk. She looked incredulous.What did you say?
Really, Im not lying to you! Lou Zilings boyfriend was called ning ruochuan. He was a very handsome man. Ning ruochuan even went around praising Lou Ziling. His love for her was beyond words! Lou Ziling and ning ruochuan get along very well. They are more intimate than all his ex-girlfriendsbined!
Luo Feiyang almost swore an oath. He was afraid that Jing Xi wouldnt believe him. He even turned on his phone and showed Jing Xi the photos that his men had collected one by one.
After Jing Xi finished looking at the photos, there was not a single photo of the two of them being intimate. The most intimate photo was only a little kissing due to the angle.
This should be a good brother. Can you not make such groundless usations? youre almost like a gossip reporter!
Xixi, Im not making groundless usations, but dont lie to yourself. Lou Ziling clearly doesnt like women. His previous girlfriends all dumped him because they couldnt stand him! Have you ever seen two good Brothers kiss?
In order to defeat Lou Ziling, the mostpetitive opponent, Luo Feiyang had teamed up with Ji moxuan and secretly sent countless people to keep an eye on Lou Zilings private life.
After staring at her for a year, he realized that no matter what kind of beauty was presented to Lou Ziling, he was not interested in her at all!
In just one year, he had already had five girlfriends. However, he was a gentleman. He had never touched the corner of the clothes of those five beautiful women with different personalities!
One of the reasons was that he was too busy. However, Luo Feiyang felt that the main reason was that Lou Ziling didnt like women. Otherwise, how could she be so indifferent to a beautiful woman who was right in front of her?
Ji moxuan and I are Good Brothers. Weve known each other since we were young. When have you seen us being close?
Jing Xi couldnt help but burst outughing.
She could not imagine what it would be like for Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan to hug and kiss each other affectionately!
Just the thought of it gave him goosebumps!
Sheughed for a while, and her clear eyes were full of joy.When did you two be Good Brothers? why do I feel like you two are enemies? you fight whenever you see each other!
Uh Thats right, the analogy I made earlier was not appropriate. Ji mo Xuan is a hypocrite, I really want to strangle him to death every time I see him! However, that was what it meant. No two normal men would kiss, unless one of them was gay! Lou Ziling must be gay, dont miss him!
Your photo is so blurry and the angle is wrong. I cant tell that they are kissing. If you are so good, take a frontal photo. Take a clear one. If Lou Ziling really likes men, I will
Youre going to give up on him?
Ill castrate him!
Jing Xis expression was calm, but Luo Feiyang felt his lower body tighten for no reason.
He felt that it was best not to provoke the city-toppling beauty in front of him. When a beauty became ruthless, she was like a snake!
If he really married Jing Xi, would he lose his life?
However, Luo Feiyang could not bear to give up on Jing Xi.
He had been pursuing Jing Xi for a year. In this year, his life was filled with her. There was no other girl, and he had no girlfriend.
He had been by Jing Xis side for a long time, and no other girl had caught his eye.
Xixi, let me treat you to a meal. Ive made a reservation at the restaurant, and Ive been waiting for you.
No, Im going home to eat.
No! Jing Xi refused without hesitation. She didnt leave any room for Luo Feiyang to fantasize. She got into her car and told the driver to go home.
Luo Feiyang watched Jing Xi leave and touched his short hair in frustration.Its so hard to catch up!
The next day was a Saturday, and Ji moxuan flew to United States early in the morning.
The driver went to pick him up, and then he was directly thrown in front of Jing Xis house.
However, Ji moxuan did not go in. He looked at the time and waited for about half an hour. He estimated that Jing Xi had woken up and went to knock on the door.
He was more careful and did not want to disturb Jing Xis sleep, so he would rather wait outside than wake her up.
The servant opened the door and saw him. She smiled and invited Ji moxuan in.
It was true that Jing Xi had just woken up, but she did not look out of ce at all. Her clothes were neat and tidy, unlike some people who looked a little unkempt when they had just woken up.
Other than her slightly messy hair, she was fine.
This was the result of strict family education. Jing Xi did not understand these things when she was young until she hired a special etiquette teacher to correct her behavior and habits little by little.
Now, even her sleeping posture was very good. She would not kick the quilt randomly, and she would not sleep in the shape of a big. She usually slept on her side, and her posture was healthy and beautiful.
This wasnt being harsh, but rather, it had already be an instinct.
Her pajamas were all soft suits with short-sleeved shirts andfortable pants. She had fewer nightgowns because she was always worried that Luo Feiyang would suddenly break in aftering to the United States, so Jing Xi had wrapped herself up very tightly.
Jing Xi was not surprised to see Ji moxuan. She greeted him calmly and tied her long hair up. She put on an exquisite bow hairpin and tucked her hair together, revealing her delicate and wless face.
Ji moxuan knew that she was preparing to wash up.
The 16-year-old Jing Xi was now 1.65 meters tall. She was wearing a green nightgown with a dangling texture. It was an ordinary nightgown, but because of the bright color, it made Jing Xi look young and energetic, like a grass with dewdrops in the morning, making people love her.
The pajamas she was wearing were very standard. The long pants covered her long, slender legs, and only the short-sleeved shirt exposed her two white arms that were as tender as lotus roots.
Her facial features were exquisite and beautiful, just right. Even if she did not wash her face, her skin still looked delicate and smooth, like an egg without its shell. It was so beautiful that people wanted to keep it for themselves.
With such a beautiful youngdy in front of him, Ji moxuan was the same as Luo Feiyang. He did not like any other girl.
Every time he saw Jing Xi, Ji moxuan would swear in his heart that he would marry her!
No one could fight with him, not Lou Ziling, not even Luo Feiyang!
Jing Xi washed up quickly. She wiped her face and walked out of the bathroom feeling refreshed. She sat down at the table in the living room and was ready for breakfast.
Mo Xuan,e over and eat together!
Ji moxuan did not stand on ceremony and sat down beside her. He took care of Jing Xi carefully as he ate slowly.
He helped her scoop the porridge, put food on her te, and poured her water.
Chapter 1465
Chapter 1465: Annihte those bees and butterflies!
Trantor: 549690339
Ji moxuan had done these things very smoothly.
Jing Xi had rejected him many times before. Although she came from a good family, she was not a spoiled princess who could be easily provided for. Most of the time, she would do what she could.
However, no matter how many times she rejected him, it was useless. Ji moxuan still did what he had to do.
So much so that Jing Xi didnt even bother to say anything and let young master Ji serve her.
She had to admit that Ji moxuan was meticulous and did not put on airs at all. When he apanied her to eat, his smile was bright and his voice was warm. He always made Jing Xi very happy while eating.
The so-called a feast for the eyes probably referred to a handsome and warm man like Ji moxuan.
Although he was more scheming than Luo Feiyang, and more of a schemer, he was also more reliable than Luo Feiyang.
Ji moxuans schemes had all been used on Luo Feiyang, but he had never used them on Jing Xi.
Xixi, youre going to graduate soon. What are your ns for the future? Are you still going to travel around the world?
Ji moxuan was elegantly eating his corn porridge. He couldnt help but eavesdrop on Jing Xis ns for the future.
Jing Xi didnt hide it from him and said,Ive already traveled half of the world. Ill keep the other half for now and look at itter. After I graduate, Ill immediately return to China.
Ji moxuans eyes brightened, but they quickly dimmed again.You Actually want to go back and look after Lou Ziling, right?
She couldnt have given up on traveling the world for him.
He knew very well how much he meant to Jing Xi.
Over the past year, he had been trying to get closer to Jing Xi, but their distance had not shortened at all. They were still friends.
However, whenever he brought news about Lou Ziling, Jing Xi would pay special attention to him.
Whenever she heard that Lou Ziling had a new girlfriend, she would be extremely angry.
If it werent for the fact that Lou Ziling and his girlfriends were only in name, Jing Xi would have flown back to A city immediately and beat Lou Ziling up.
Of course I have to go back and keep an eye on him. He had five girlfriends in a year, and there will be more in the future. He has a face that attracts bees and butterflies. I cant destroy that face, so I can only destroy those bees and butterflies!
Jing Xi was annoyed at the thought of it.
Before she left, she had warned Lou Ziling not to have anything to do with other women. However, he turned a deaf ear to her warning and did not take it to heart at all!
When she got back, she would let Lou Ziling know that there was a price to pay for making decisions on her own!
Ji moxuan looked at Jing Xi in a daze. A part of his heart seemed to have been torn open, and it hurt like hell.
He wanted to ask why Lou Ziling and not him.
How could he not beparable to Lou Ziling?
In the past, he might have felt that he had lost to Lou Ziling because of his rtionship with Wu Wei.
But now, wasnt Lou Ziling in love? And he had five girlfriends!
Ji moxuan had initially thought that Jing Xi did not like him because he had an ex-girlfriend, but now he realized that that was not the case.
Even if he didnt have a girlfriend, Jing Xi wouldnt like him!
Ji mo Xuans heart ached, but he did not show it on his face. He was as gentle as ever, and he smiled as always.
He was not someone who would admit defeat easily. Jing Xi was only 16 years old, and he still had a lot of time to change his fate and future.
Anyway, Lou Ziling didnt like Jing Xi. He was devoted to the Lou familys newly established group and was trying his best to build the high-end brand image of the Lou group. He didnt want to talk about love.
Jing Xis one-sided love might notst long.
Ji moxuan found a reason to convince himself and felt much better in his heart. He took care of Jing Xi even more attentively.
After breakfast, Jing Xi changed into white sportswear and went to her personal training ground with Ji moxuan.
Todays training was shooting. Jing Xi had practiced shooting before, but Jing Yichen didnt let her do a lot of training because she was too young. Most importantly, too much contact with guns and ammunition was harmful to her body and not good for her growth.
At the age of 16, one was almost fully developed. This was also the time when ones body functions were at their best. With a fast metabolism, even if there were injuries, they could recover very quickly.
The training in the morning was two hours long, and Ji moxuan apanied Jing Xi throughout the entire training.
Of course, he wasnt idle either. He was also working hard to improve his shooting skills.
When Ji moxuan was 14 years old, he had already learned how to shoot. After grasping the essentials, he rarely touched a gun.
As a result, he was a thousand times worse than Jing Xi.
Ji moxuan held on and finally managed to endure until noon. After two hours of non-stop practice, the powerful vibration of the bullet made his entire arm numb. He probably wouldnt be able to raise his hand tomorrow!
After aiming and shooting for a long time, Ji moxuan felt dizzy and his vision blurred. Everything he saw seemed to be ovepping shadows and his vision seemed to have plummeted!
However, when he looked at the thin and weak Jing Xi beside him, who looked as if nothing had happened, Ji moxuan was too embarrassed to cry out in pain.
If he had known that Jing Xis shooting training was so crazy, he would have asked Luo Feiyang to join!
With him around, the training wouldnt be too boring, and he could be a littlezy. Although this would give Luo Feiyang another chance to pursue Jing Xi, it was better than losing one of his arms!
In the afternoon, Jing Xi changed the training ground. The training course was boxing.
In light of the painful lesson he had learned in the morning, Ji moxuan immediately called Luo Feiyang over.
Jing Xis training course had always been strictly confidential. It didnt matter if the shooting course was leaked, but the other courses involved Jing Xis important physical data. She didnt want to let Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang enter the training ground at first, but she couldnt stand Luo Feiyangs pestering and Ji moxuans solicitousness, so she had to reluctantly agree.
There were four martial arts trainers in charge of teaching Jing Xi. They were a little hesitant to see her bring two unfamiliar faces in.
Jing Yichen had said that he would only teach Jing Xi when he invited them over.
Its fine. Theyre my two friends. You can y with them.
y?
The fourbat coaches had a rough idea of what was going on.
Because she had brought people with her, Jing Xis training today was very easy. She yed against two coaches alone, while the other two coaches were responsible for teaching Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang.
Then, the training ground was filled with the echoes of two screams.
Argh! Coach, please be gentle!
Oh my God, help! My bones are broken!
Stop, stop, stop. Im not training anymore. Im going to rest for a while!
Im not ying anymore, I want to go home!
Chapter 1466
Chapter 1466: It hurts when she hits someone
Trantor: 549690339
For the next few days, Luo Feiyang didnt go to Jing Xi again. He was scared of the torment.
Ji moxuan also had a lingering fear. He wanted to look for Jing Xi, but every time he moved, his whole body ached and he did not dare to go out again.
Luo Feiyang called and scolded Ji moxuan 800 times, saying that he purposely dragged him down to get beaten up.
Therefore, he personally called Wu Wei and revealed the hotel that Ji moxuan was staying at.
Ji moxuan opened the hotel door. The moment he saw Wu Wei, he knew that it was Luo Feiyangs doing again.
However, Ji moxuan didnt drive Wu Wei away. In fact, he often met Wu Wei. Every time he came to the United States, he would help Wu Wei solve some of the difficulties she encountered, such as being pestered by people orcking money to pay rent.
Wu Wei was 20 years old this year. Her appearance was beautiful, and her temperament was more and more mature and charming. Her whole person revealed a tempting taste, like a ripe peach waiting for people to pick it.
She had obviously found out from Luo Feiyang that Ji moxuan was injured and had specially brought medicine. She carefully applied it on Ji moxuans bruises and gently massaged him.
She was as beautiful as a flower, as gentle as water, and her figure was hot and sexy. Any man would not be able to resist it.
Ji moxuan hesitated again and again, but he still did not let Wu Wei stay overnight. Although he liked Wu Weis character, when he thought of Jing Xi, he felt that Wu Wei was the only person he could be friends with.
Taking a step back, even if he could not marry Jing Xi, Ji moxuan had known from a long time ago that he would not marry Wu Wei.
Wu Wei had always wanted to be a star and had been squeezing into the entertainment industry.
Even if she seeded and became a star-studded and sought-after female celebrity, Ji moxuan would not marry her.
Ji Bo would never agree to let her in.
Wu Wei was chased out of the hotel by Ji moxuan. She sat in her car with a face full of unwillingness and anger.
Among the people she knew, other than Luo Feiyang, Ji moxuan was the richest. Even her Mercedes-Benz was a gift from Ji moxuan.
She definitely had no chance with Luo Feiyang.
Luo Feiyang was different from Ji moxuan. He was very clear about what he loved and hated. After being hurt by her once, he never looked at her in the eye again. No matter how she tried to please him or show weakness, Luo Feiyang was not moved at all.
Perhaps it was because Luo Feiyang had been with far too many women. Even though his reputation as a womanizer far exceeded Ji moxuan s, in reality, his desire for a womans body was far lower than Ji moxuan s.
It was useless to seduce him with her body and gentle words.
However, this was very effective on Ji moxuan.
Wu Wei didnt know that Ji moxuan had never nned to marry her. She still wanted to use her bodys advantage to win Ji moxuan over.
Ji moxuan returned to city A very quickly. After Wu Wei was sure that he had left, he went to Jing Xis school and waited for her for several days. Finally, she ran into him.
The weather was still very hot at the end of August. Jing Xi was wearing a Lake Blue short-sleeved silk dress, holding a beautiful parasol, and holding a brand new pink leather bag as she walked out of the school gate.
After walking a few steps, he was stopped by Wu Wei and the men she brought.
Jing Xi was stunned. Was he going to hit her?
In this day and age, it was really rare to see such a reckless person!
Her memory had always been good. Although she had not seen Wu Wei for more than a year, she still recognized her at a nce.
Jing Xi blinked and felt a little strange. Did Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang not tell Wu Wei that it hurt when she hit him?
She kindly advised Li Wei,Miss Li, you should stay away from Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang in the future. These two people dont care about you at all. Youre so beautiful. Youll definitely be able to find someone whos sincere and good to you.
Jing Xis words were sincere. She didnt think she had any enmity with Wu Wei, so there was no need to be angry with her.
However, Wu Wei felt that Jing Xi was showing off and mocking her.
On her beautiful face, there was no longer the gentleness and charm she had when she faced Ji moxuan. There was only hatred and disgust,You should stay away from them! Im telling you, mo Xuan and Feiyang dont like your style. They both like me!
To tell you the truth, the reason Feiyang doesnt have a good rtionship with mo Xuan and always fights is because mo Xuan has been pursuing me. He cant let me go. Youd better have some self-awareness and leave Feiyang and Mo Xuan. Dont bother them anymore!
Jing Xi was so angry that she almostughed. Who was the one pestering who?
It was clearly those two who couldnt be driven away no matter what. If they hadnt been beaten up by her boxing coach a few days ago, they would definitely still be by her side.
Jing Xi had never been the kind of person who could tolerate being bullied. She had even poured hot coffee on Lou Ziling before. If it was the unlikable Wu Wei, Jing Xi would not be polite.
She smiled and said,miss Ling, youre really greedy. Its not enough to have one Ji moxuan. You even want to take Luo Feiyang as well. Are you nning to serve two men at the same time? Youre willing to serve both of them, but I dont know if theyre willing to share a woman!
Jing Xi said as she put away the parasol in her hand and threw the umbre and the small bag on the side of the road. She picked up her long dress and tied it up, revealing her slender, white, and well-proportioned calves.
As soon as she finished these actions, Wu Weis angry voice came from the other side,All of you,e at me together and teach her a good lesson. A wild girl who came out of nowhere actually dares to speak to me like this!
There were five men who followed Li Wei up.
Wu Wei had brought so many people here not because he knew that Jing Xi was good at fighting, but because he wanted to scare her.
She used to do this kind of thing a lot. She used this method to scare away Ji moxuans suitors.
After threatening him, and if it really didnt work, they would beat him up. Usually, no girl would dare to pester Ji moxuan.
Of course, there would be girls who wouldin to Ji moxuan, but Wu Wei had always had the most say in Ji moxuans words. She looked as gentle as water, kind and beautiful. Ji moxuan never believed that she was the kind of ruthless character who would find people to beat up little girls.
The five men who had followed Li Wei up were all stunned at first sight. At this moment, they slowly surrounded Jing Xi, their eyes shining with evil light.
Some of them were staring at Jing Xis beautiful calves, while others were staring at her chest.
Jing Xis temperament was pure and elegant,pletely different from the charming Wu Wei.
Wu Weis aura was too strong. Men who had been in the brothels all year round would not like people like her. They preferred pure and cold girls like Jing Xi.
Surrounded and stared at by people with ill intentions, the smile on Jing Xis face disappeared. In her clear eyes, there was a sh of coldness that was very simr to Jing Yichen s.
Chapter 1467
Chapter 1467: The wickedined first
Trantor: 549690339
Someone reached out to her impatiently, wanting to touch her delicate and wless face.
Jing Xis lips curled into a cold smile. She grabbed the hand that was reaching out to her and suddenly exerted force.
With a creak, the hand drooped down weakly.
Ah!
The scream was a little ear-piercing, and the owner of the hand was in unbearable pain, and he took a few steps back.
He was just about to curse out loud when he looked up and saw that the slender and beautiful girl who was surrounded by his brothers had attacked as fast as lightning.
He didnt even see how she moved, but he saw his brothers fall to the ground one by one, wailing in pain.
In just a short while, five tall and strong men had been knocked down by a little girl!
As for the little girl who looked a little innocent and ignorant of the world, she was unscathed. The five of them had not even touched a single strand of her hair!
The only man standing was holding his broken arm, his face pale. He was struggling to decide whether to escape or not when he was suddenly kicked in the chest.
The force came too suddenly and violently. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted on the ground.
Li Wei looked as if she had seen a ghost. Her eyes were wide open as she stared at Jing Xi, dumbfounded. She felt as if all the strength in her body had been sucked away.
How could this be possible?
The five people she had found had always been fierce and had never lost a fight. Each of them had eight-pack ABS and were as strong as a mountain. How could they be knocked down by a little girl in just one move?
She watched as Jing Xi slowly walked towards her. She was so scared that she stepped back.You, you, you What are you doing! Get lost, get away from me! Mo Xuan will protect me. If you hurt me, he wont let you off!
Jing Xi gave Li Wei a tight p across the face.What did you just say? I didnt hear you clearly. Say it again!
Wu Wei was pped. Just as he was about to curse, the other half of his face was pped again.
Her two cheeks quickly swelled up.
Jing Xi did not hold back.
Behind her, a man and a woman with ordinary looks but calm auras had appeared.
The man picked up the umbre and bag she had thrown on the side of the road, opened the umbre, and held it over Jing Xis head to shield her from the sun.
The woman took out a pack of wet tissues and handed it to Jing Xi respectfully.
Jing Xi took out a wet tissue and wiped her hands slowly. She said to Wu Wei, who was shocked and angry,This is the only time, there wont be a next time. Go back and tell Ji mo Xuan that Ive been so kind to you, so he owes me a favor.
After she finished speaking, she threw the wet tissue into the trash can and got into a ck Porsche that was parked by the side of the road. The two bodyguards followed her in and the car drove away.
Wu Wei suddenly went limp on the ground. She covered her swollen and painful face and cried as she called Ji moxuan, who was far away in A city,Mo Xuan, Ive been bullied. Someone hit me. Im in so much pain and so scared, wuwuwu
Ji mo Xuan frowned. Wu Wei was crying his heart out and his voice was filled with grievance. He was a little angry,Who touched you? Dont cry, Ill help you vent your anger!
I I dont know who she is. Shes an extremely arrogant woman. Not only did she hit me, but she also hit my friend! Mo Xuan,e quickly, Im being bullied to death by myself here!
Wu Wei cried breathlessly, as if he was going to die the next moment.
She described herself as extremely miserable and described Jing Xi as extremely evil, but she did not say that she knew Jing Xi.
Wu Wei did not have any rtives in the United States. Ji moxuan was worried about her and was afraid that something would happen to her. He quickly asked his assistant to buy a ne ticket and fly to the United States.
It was already past midnight when they arrived in United States
When Ji moxuan appeared in Wu Weis dormitory, Wu Wei cried and threw herself into his arms,Mo Xuan, why are you only here now? Ive missed you so much!
Her cheeks were still a little red and swollen, and there were two clear palm prints on her fair skin.
Ji moxuans heart ached as he gently lifted Wu Weis chin.Tell me, who hit you? Why did I hit you?
Li Wei kept crying and didnt speak. Her tears fell like they didnt cost money.
Ji moxuan could only console her.Its alright now. If anyone bullies you, I will definitely help you take revenge. You should rest well. Your eyes are already swollen from crying.
Wu Wei cried for a while and choked,I want to go home. I dont want to stay here anymore
Ji moxuan was slightly taken aback as he hesitated.
The rtionship between him and Wu Wei was not clear. If Ji Bo found out that they were still in a rtionship after they returned to A city, he would definitely scold him.
Moreover, Jing Xi was about to graduate and return to the country. City A was only so big, and it was the Jing familys territory. If Jing Xi saw them together, Ji moxuan felt that he would not be able to exin himself no matter what.
Wu Wei saw his hesitation and immediately cried even harder,My family is in A city. I want to go back and take care of them. Its so far away from here. I was beaten up, and theres no one tofort me, so I can only bear it alone. I miss home
She had to return to A city. With Ji moxuans protection, no one would dare to bully her!
Furthermore, she could use the Ji familys power to realize her dream of bing a star!
It was impossible for an Asian like her to be a big star in North America!
Compared to the Westerners, her facial features were not well-defined, and her figure was not as good. She had no advantage here.
Being beaten up this time was a rare and good opportunity to return to A city!
Ji moxuan was upset by Wu Weis crying. In the past, he would always be moved by Wu Weis tears, but after she cried so many times, Ji moxuan would only feel that her tears were worthless.
However, he couldnt stand Li Weis constant begging and finally relented.Its not impossible to return to A city, but you cant look for me anymore.
As long as you let me go home, I wont bother you anymore!
Wu Wei immediately agreed.
Who cares, he would agree to it first. As long as he could go back, it was not up to him to decide whether he would look for Ji moxuan or not.
Although Ji moxuan had previously said that he wanted to break up and be with Jing Xi, Jing Xi was so violent that Wu Wei felt that Ji moxuan would definitely not like her anymore after knowing her true colors!
At noon the next day, Wu Wei took Ji moxuan to Jing Xis school and waited for Jing Xi at the school gate.
Ji moxuan sat in the car and an inexplicable sense of uneasiness rose in his heart.
This was Jing Xis school. If he and Wu Wei were to wait here, how would he exin himself if they met Jing Xiter?
He didnt tell Jing Xi that it wasnt the weekend when he came to United States
What he was afraid of happened. Ji moxuan waited for a while before he saw Jing Xi walking out of the school with a parasol. She had already seen his car and was walking straight towards him.
Chapter 1468
Chapter 1468: Investigate your girlfriend properly
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi stood in front of Ji moxuans car and knocked on his window.Young master Ji, stop hiding. Your cars Windows arent ck. I can see everything clearly from the outside!
Ji moxuan quickly opened the car door and got out.
Even though it was a little awkward, Ji moxuan quickly regained hisposure. His smile was as warm and bright as ever,Xixi, what a coincidence!
What a coincidence! Jing Xi looked at him.I just beat up your girlfriend yesterday, and now youre flying to my school to stop me.
The smile on Ji moxuans face instantly shattered, and the shock in his eyes could not be concealed.
Wu Wei got out of the car and walked to Ji moxuans side. He held his arm without saying anything and said in a gentle and aggrieved tone,Mo Xuan, shes the one who hit me. Do you Know her? If shes your friend, then Then Forget it, Im not in pain anymore.
Even though Ji moxuan was still in a state of shock, he instinctively pulled his arm back from Wu Weis hand.
He didnt want to be intimate with Wu Wei in front of Jing Xi.
Moreover, he had a vague feeling that he had fallen into a scam!
Wu Wei had clearly met Jing Xi before, and it was Luo Feiyang who had deliberately brought Jing Xi to Wu Wei. They had even had an argument, but she actually said that she didnt know Jing Xi!
Ji moxuan did not care about womens little schemes at all. It was better than being a silly and sweet person who was always bullied.
However, if she were to use her schemes and schemes on him, Ji moxuan would not be able to tolerate it!
Aiya, young master Ji, your girlfriend is so generous! I gave her two tight ps yesterday, and she forgives me today. Should I be shedding tears of gratitude?
Jing Xis tone was full of sarcasm and her expression was cold. It was obvious that she was angry. Ji moxuan had a bad feeling in his heart.
As far as he knew, although Jing Xi was spoiled by her parents and was a little willful and fearless, she had never made things difficult for others.
Xixi, did Wu Wei do something wrong? If she offends you, dont take it to heart, just give me face. Wu Wei is still kind by nature, but he may be impulsive.
Hearing that Ji moxuans words implied that he was protecting Wu Wei, Jing Xis eyes shed with a trace of surprise.
She didnt expect Ji moxuan to have such a deep rtionship with Wu Wei. Even after they broke up, he still took care of her. When he found out that she was beaten up, he actually flew over at night.
No, thats not right. Maybe he and Wu Wei never broke up?
A faint smile appeared on Jing Xis face, but there was no smile in her tone.I only gave her two ps because of you. The five men who blocked me with her all vomited blood!
What? Wu Wei, you bring people
I didn t! Mo Xuan, shes framing me!
Wu Wei immediately cried and interrupted Ji moxuans words. He said pitifully,I dont even know her, so why would I have anything against her? Dont you know what kind of person I am? I was the one who was surrounded yesterday. She was the one who hit me for no reason!
Jing Xi was so angry at Wu Wei that she wanted to hit him again.Miss Ling, wheres your spirit from yesterday? One would be struck by lightning if one were to distort ck and white like this! You still have the cheek to say that you dont know me? yesterday, you could have sworn that you would take over both Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang at the same time and told me to stay away from them. If you dont know me, how would you know that Im on good terms with them?
Youre ndering me!
Wu Wei seemed to be angry. She said with red eyes and a white face,You were the one who said you wanted to take over mo Xuan and Feiyang, yet you still asked me to get out of United States!
Jing Xi had finally seen what it meant to lie with ones eyes open and make something up out of nothing.
It was a pity that he didnt record his conversation with Wu Wei yesterday. Otherwise, he would have waited for Wu Wei to finish his performance and let Ji moxuan listen to yesterdays recording. He would let him know that the woman beside him was sinister and cunning, and she was not worthy of him.
At this moment, Ji moxuan did not know who to believe after hearing the conversation between the two of them.
In his impression, Jing Xi was not the kind of girl who would scold and hit people at will, and she did not seem to be too possessive of him and Luo Feiyang.
However, Wu Wei was not the kind of girl that Jing Xi had described. She had always been gentle and sensible. Why would she bring five men to cause trouble for Jing Xi?
Jing Xi had always been intelligent and observant. She knew that Ji moxuan did not believe her words from his expression.
She was so angry that she wanted to give Ji moxuan a good beating!
For such a long time, Jing Xi had always treated Ji moxuan as a good friend. Ji moxuan was cheerful, humorous, and smart. He was about the same age as her and was a rarepanion growing up.
Even though Jing Xi did not have any feelings for him, she did not want him to be fooled by a woman.
His distrust of her was secondary.
Jing Xis expression suddenly became serious. She no longer argued with Wu Wei about yesterdays incident. Instead, she looked at Ji moxuan and said seriously,Mo Xuan, its your freedom to date whoever you want, and I shouldnt have said anything. However, I advise you to investigate your girlfriend carefully. With the Ji familys power, its easy to investigate a person. Dont be blinded by love.
Ji moxuan looked at the sincere Jing Xi in a daze. He subconsciously said,Shes not my girlfriend, Xixi. Ive already broken up with her. Please dont misunderstand me, okay?
Jing Xi had a headache. Ji moxuan didnt get the main point right!
It didnt matter if she misunderstood him or not. The important thing was that Wu Wei was a problematic person. He should go and understand him in depth!
Jing Xi blinked and suddenly said,forget it. Youre still young anyway. Its not a big deal for you to fall. You two can talk, but please donte to me again. Ive been spoiled by my mother. I might not be able to control myself if someone provokes me. pping me or breaking my legs would be the lightest punishment.
After she said this, she turned around and left. She was toozy to waste time exining to Ji moxuan.
She didnt have the time to teach someone elses boyfriend. If she had the time, she would pack her things and go back to A city to teach Lou Ziling a lesson!
Jing Xi had left so quickly that Ji moxuan felt his heart suddenly empty.
From the beginning to the end, she had misunderstood his rtionship with Wu Wei, but she wasnt jealous at all.
Hed rather Jing Xi did what she did to Lou Zilingst year, pouring coffee all over his face because he was close to another woman.
If there was no coffee to pour on him, he could scold him. At least it would prove that he still had a little ce in Jing Xis heart.
Unfortunately, he didn t.
Only when Lou Ziling was in love would Jing Xi be anxious and angry.

Ji moxuan was silent. Wu Wei wiped his tears and asked him carefully,Mo Xuan, are you angry? she asked.
Ji moxuan turned his head and looked at the lovely Wu Wei.No, I didn t,
Wu Wei breathed a sigh of relief,thats good!
However, from now on, lets not meet again!
There should be a way to break up. He was always entangled with Wu Wei. Even he didnt believe that they had broken up, so Jing Xi would not believe it.
No, mo Xuan, I cant live without you! Youre still angry, arent you? Im going to apologize to your friend right now. Its all my fault, Im going to beg for her forgiveness!
As Wu Wei spoke, he was about to chase after Jing Xi, but Ji moxuan pulled her back.
Alright, stop fooling around!
Ji moxuan felt very tired. He remembered that when he was with Wu Wei in the past, he was always happy and rxed. When did it be so difficult to get along with him?
Perhaps, it all started with Jing Xis appearance.
After meeting Jing Xi, he gradually felt that Wu Wei was nothing special. She had the Halo of the school Belle, but she only had a face. She did not have any real talent, and her upbringing and self-restraint werecking.
Ji moxuan pulled Wu Wei into the car and drove Li Wei back to her dormitory in frustration.
He suddenly thought of Lou Ziling.
In the past year, he and Luo Feiyang had been keeping a close eye on Lou Ziling. Not only did they know about his business, but they also followed his love life in all aspects.
It was not Luo Feiyangs fault for suspecting that Lou Ziling liked men. It was just that he did not seem to be interested in any of Lou Zilings girlfriends.
Most men were lower-half animals, and it was normal to have desires when they saw beautiful women.
But Lou Ziling didn t.
The real use of his girlfriends was not to satisfy his physiological needs, but to be a stepping stone for his career.
He was an unsociable and conceited person. The consequence of being too cold and reticent was that those girls left him one after another.
After they broke up, none of the women bothered him.
Ji moxuan frowned and hesitated. Should he learn from Lou Ziling and treat Wu Wei coldly?
Every time something happened to Li Wei, he couldnt bear to ignore her. As he tried to interfere, he couldnt get involved with Wu Wei again.
However, Lou Ziling was extremely ruthless. Ji moxuan had long realized that he did not care about his girlfriends life. No matter how much she cried and begged, Lou Ziling was unmoved.
Could it be that this was why Jing Xi liked him?
However, Lou Ziling seemed to be just as cruel to Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling wasnt gentle at all. She never cared about others. She was much worse than him and Luo Feiyang!
Ji moxuan felt that he was very good to Jing Xi. He was thoughtful, gentle, and considerate. There was no reason for him to lose to Lou Ziling.
Unfortunately, he had forgotten that he was not only gentle and considerate to Jing Xi, but also to Wu Wei.
Luo Feiyang soon found out that Ji moxuan hade to United States.
Usually, Ji mo Xuan woulde every half a month or a month, picking the weekends toe.
However, this time, it was not even half a month and it was not even a weekend, yet Ji moxuan actually came. This was obviously fishy.
Luo Feiyang specifically went to find Jing Xi and Wu Wei. He quickly found out the reason why Ji moxuan had rushed over.
Wu Wei could lie to Ji moxuan, but not him.
Luo Feiyang used the highest efficiency to capture the five men who had surrounded Jing Xi the other day. He ran to the hotel where Ji moxuan was staying and threw them in front of him.
The five of you, quickly describe to young master Ji how you bullied a little girl two days ago! Ill throw anyone who dares to lie into the Pacific Ocean to feed the Sharks!
Luo Feiyangs name as the devil incarnate was well-known in the circle. Although the five men did not know him, they had all heard of his past and knew that his methods were not to be trifled with.
The five of them didnt dare to hide anything. They immediately fought to tell him about how they had bullied Jing Xi.
After Ji moxuan heard the entire story, his expression turned unsightly,The five of you were hired by Wu Wei?
Yes, yes, yes, we five brothers have worked with her many times. Shes generous, and every time she beats up a weak little girl, money is especially easy to earn. Were all very willing to be her fighters!
Ji moxuans voice was raised by a few decibels,She asked you to hit Jing Xi?
Jing Xi? Aiya, we dont know the name of that little girl, but shes very beautiful and has a good temperament!
But, young masters, we didnt get any advantage at all. Look, my arm was broken by her, and Im still hanging!
Were all seriously injured, and that little girl can fight ten people by herself. If we knew she was so powerful, we wouldnt have dared to go and die! Were just getting paid to do things. The real mastermind is Wu Wei! You can only me her!
The five of them tried to defend themselves. They were still afraid of Jing Xi and Luo Feiyang. Their scalps were numb.
Only Ji moxuan seemed to be easier to talk to, and they were trying their best to fight for a chance for themselves.
On the other hand, Luo Feiyangughed until he was out of breath. He pointed at Ji moxuan and said in an extremely mocking tone,Surnamed Ji, Ive seen spendthrifts, but Ive never seen an idiot like you!
Wu Wei is generous? Hahaha, you must have given her all her money! These five idiots are earning your money! What was even more ridiculous was that you actually gave them money to beat up Jing Xi! If your dad finds out about this, do you think hell disown you as his son?
Oh my God, if I were Jing Xi, I would beat you up first! She even told me with a good temper that youre a good person and that youre loyal to your girlfriend!
Ji moxuans handsome face turned from red to white, then from white to red, but he couldnt even say a single word to refute Luo Feiyang.
Wu Wei lied to him!
If Jing Xi was really just an ordinary girl who didnt know any martial arts and had no one to protect her, she would probably be bullied by these five tall and strong men!
Wu Weis heart was so vicious!
He had found five men to deal with Jing Xi!
Jing Xis status was so special that she could not touch her at will. Stupid woman who doesnt know her ce!
Ji moxuan stood up, tidied his clothes, and walked out.
Where are you going? Luo Feiyang was confused.
Im going to find Xixi. Im Going to apologize to her.
Tsk, you dont have to go. You wont be able to find her even if you go now. Shes already on the ne back to A city!
What? Ji moxuan turned his head abruptly.Shes back in the country? However, he did not receive any news!
Haha, Ji moxuan, you should quickly take the initiative to withdraw. The person with the highest chance of marrying Xixi is me, Luo Feiyang!
Dont be too proud. Theres still Lou Ziling!
Lou Ziling? Oh, I forgot to tell you, Ive introduced him to a new girlfriend!
Chapter 1470
Chapter 1470: Whose boyfriend is he?
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Zilings sixth girlfriend was Qi Duoduo.
To be exact, Qi Duoduo was not Lou Zilings girlfriend yet. She had admired Lou Ziling for a long time. When she heard that Luo Feiyang knew Lou Ziling, she asked him to introduce her to him.
For two consecutive days, Qi Duoduo invited Lou Ziling to candlelight dinner. She was sent home by Lou Ziling once, and then she imed to be Lou Zilings girlfriend.
Qi Duoduo was just like her name. She was as fresh and lovely as a flower bud.
She was the same age as Lou Ziling and was 23 years old. However, she was only 1.6 meters tall. She was petite and had a baby face. She looked much younger than Lou Ziling, who was mature, stable, and tall.
Ziling, I want to buy some new clothes. Its almost autumn. Can you apany me to buy a windbreaker?
Lou Ziling sat across from Qi Duoduo and ate the blueberry dessert. As usual, she left all the blueberries on her te.
He didnt seem to hear Qi Duoduos words at all. He didnt respond or react.
Lou Ziling didnt answer Qi Duoduo. Although Qi Duoduo was a little disappointed, she wasnt angry. She already knew what kind of person Lou Ziling was.
However, she looked at the blueberries on Lou Zilings te and asked,Ziling, if you dont like blueberries, why did you order blueberry desserts? Their signature dessert is mango, chocte, and sweetheart. Do you want to order one for yourself?
This time, Lou Ziling finally responded,No need,
He actually didnt like desserts.
It was just that he seemed to have gotten used to Qianqian. Every time he went to eat with Jing Xi, she would order dessert, but she only ate the blueberries in the dessert.
She pushed the remaining small cake to him.Lou Ziling, youre too skinny. Ill give you this high-calorie dessert! Dont waste it!
She obviously didnt like it, so she threw it to Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling had never had the habit of eating other peoples leftovers before he met Jing Xi.
The Lou family was a well-known family. Since young, Lou Ziling had always acted like a young master. Everything she ate, wore, and used were of premium quality.
Lou Ziling was cold and arrogant. She would never eat something that someone else had eaten.
However, when he met Jing Xi, all his principles were broken.
Lou Ziling thought of Jing Xis self-righteous look when she threw the leftover cake to him, and a smile suddenly appeared on her lips.
She had indeed been spoiled. She didnt like to eat it, but she didnt want to waste it, so she insisted on letting him eat it.
Qi Duoduo, who was opposite him, was already dumbfounded!
Was Lou Ziling smiling?
Oh my God, hes actually smiling!
So he could smile!
Moreover, he looked so good when he smiled, so handsome!
Qi Duoduo thought that Lou Ziling was happy because she cared about him and gave him dessert advice. Just as she was feeling excited, the door of the dining room suddenly opened and a figure rushed in.
The figure quickly came to their table.Lou Ziling, whats wrong with you? dont you remember what I said? She actually dared to smile at another woman. Who was she? Do you believe that Ill make her family go bankrupt immediately?
Qi Duoduos chest tightened. She almost thought she was shooting a movie!
Who was this girl? her tone was too arrogant!
The Qi family might not be the number one or number two family in city A, but they were definitely in the top ten. Not everyone could bankrupt the Qi family just because they wanted to!
Lou Ziling looked up at Jing Xi, whose face was red with anger. For a moment, she felt like she was not in A city, but in the United States.
However, the next second, he came back to his senses and frowned slightly.Why did youe back?
Jing Xi stared at Lou Ziling, who was obviously unhappy, and said,What, am I not wee back? My house is in A city, why cant Ie back?
She nced at the petite Qi Duoduo and snorted,Are you afraid that Ille back and stop your luck with women? you wont be able to date the little beauty anymore, right? Lou Ziling is mine. Dont have any ideas about her in the future!
Lou Ziling suddenly felt a headache. He had only said one sentence, but Jing Xi had said a lot. He didnt mean it at all.
He just felt that Jing Xis return was a little sudden. Shouldnt she be studying and training in the United States?
Who are you? you want to take my boyfriend as soon as youe here. Ziling is on a date with me. Why dont you go and find out if I, Qi Duoduo, am someone to be trifled with?
Qi Duoduo had a bad temper and she had been secretly in love with Lou Ziling for a long time. It was not easy for her to be able to stand by his side. When she suddenly heard that someone wanted to snatch Lou Ziling away from her, she immediately became angry.
The words my boyfriend made Jing Xis blood rush to the top of her head. She picked up a ss and sshed water all over Qi Duoduo. Then she quickly picked up a te and threw it at Qi Duoduo.
Not to be outdone, Qi Duoduo took Lou Zilings ss and poured it on Jing Xi.
However, the moment she sshed the water, Lou Ziling subconsciously stood up and hugged Jing Xi, blocking her from the water.
Lou Zilings back was wet. He only realized what he had done when Qi Duoduo anxiously apologized behind him.
He had already developed a conditioned reflex to protect Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling felt a little bitter and helpless. She quickly let go of Jing Xi, took the te from her hand, and put it back on the table. Dont mess around, go home!
Jing Xi reached out and touched his wet white shirt. She felt his subconscious protection and the anger in her heart dissipated. She said softly,Then youre not allowed to go on a date with her Ill be sad, Ill be sad
This is my business. Its also my normal life and social activities. You should have the right to interfere.
Lou Ziling returned to her seat. Her expression wasnt cold, but it was definitely not gentle.
His words made Jing Xi stomp her feet in anger, but Qi Duoduo was happy.
When she saw Lou Ziling carrying Jing Xi and blocking the water for her, she thought that he liked this little girl. But it turned out that he was just so-so!
Qi Duoduo raised her eyebrows.Did you see that? my boyfriend doesnt like you. Leave quickly! Im a magnanimous person, so Ill forget about you sshing water on me!
She didnt want to show her violence in front of Lou Ziling. If she was sshed with water, Lou Ziling might feel more guilty about it.
It would not be toote for her to deal with this girl when Lou Ziling could not see her anymore!
With the Qi familys power, it was easy to find a person in A city. No matter where the person went, she could find him.
Qi Duoduo wanted to keep her face in front of Lou Ziling, but Jing Xi didn t. Anyway, Lou Ziling had seen her most embarrassing and fierce times, so there was nothing for her to hide.
Jing Xis eyes were red with anger.Hes not your boyfriend! If you keep talking nonsense, youlle in standing and leave lying down today!
Chapter 1471
Chapter 1471: Please take me in!
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi said as she reached out to pull Qi Duoduo out of her seat.
However, Lou Ziling was faster than her and stopped her. He turned his head slightly and said to Qi Duoduo,Im sorry, there was an ident today. Ill take my leave first.
He grabbed Jing Xis wrist and pulled her out of the dining room.
Qi Duoduo watched Lou Ziling leave without looking back, and she was so jealous of Jing Xi.
She felt that Lou Ziling treated Jing Xi a little differently. Although he spoke coldly, the look in his eyes was not as indifferent as when he looked at her.
Besides, he had never held her hand or hugged her. How could he be so close to Jing Xi?
Was this his ex-girlfriend?
But Jing Xi still looked like an underaged girl!
The little girls skin looked different at first nce. It was so tender that water could be squeezed out of it. Her face was full of cogen, making people envious.
Qi Duoduo subconsciously touched her face, then took out a small mirror and looked at herself.
She felt that she might have used too many cosmetics today. Her Foundation was a little too thick, and the color of her blush seemed to be too red. It was far from Jing Xis fair and clear skin without any makeup.
Jing Xi did not know that Qi Duoduo was envious of her skin. She was still jealous of her.
She felt that Lou Ziling had gone on a date with her, had a meal with her, and even smiled at her.
Lou Ziling had only smiled at her two or three times in total. Now, she was smiling at someone else, which made her very unhappy.
She pouted and didnt say anything. When she saw that Lou Ziling was driving on the road to her house, she immediately gave Lou Ziling an angry look.
Lou Ziling pretended not to see it. She just sped up and wanted to send Jing Xi home as soon as possible.
Why are you always so eager to chase me away and ask me to go home every time you see me? Im not going back, my parents are at work, theres no one at home!
Lou Zilings foot paused on the elerator.Then Ill send you to your brothers house.
My brother took my sister-inw and my nephew out to y. Theres no one at his house!
Lou Ziling stepped on the brakes and stopped the car by the roadside. He turned to look at Jing Xi and asked,When did youe back?
I just came back today, Jing Xi said, biting her lip.
Dont your family know that youre back?
I didnt tell anyone. I came back secretly.
Lou Ziling understood. She must havee straight to him the moment she came back.
No, she hade back for him.
Her bodyguards were also nowhere to be seen. She had no idea where they were.
Lou Ziling was worried about leaving Jing Xi alone.Where do you want to go? Ill give you a ride.
I dont have anywhere to go, please take me in!
As far as I know, family Jings properties are everywhere in A city. You can choose any one to rest in.
But theyre not mine, theyre my brother s! Itll be my little nephews house in the future. How can I snatch my little nephews house!
Lou Ziling didnt know if it was Jing Ruis personal property, but he knew that Jing Rui loved his sister so much that he would give her a lot of property no matter which one she wanted.
Besides, Jing Yichen couldnt have just given all his assets to Jing Rui. There must be thousands of assets under Jing Xis name.
Jing Xi just didnt want to go home. Her excuse was full of loopholes, but she still looked so righteous.
I still have things to do. I dont have time to y with you. Tell me the location and Ill send you there.
Im not going anywhere, Im following you today! If you have the ability, throw me out of the car, or throw me out with the car!
Jing Xi decided to stay by Lou Zilings side for the whole day, in case he turned around to look for Qi Duoduo again.
Who knew if he had gone to work or to go on a date!
It was better for her to look after Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling felt a little helpless. He couldnt throw away the car, nor could he throw away Jing Xi.
After a moment of silence, he finally started the car again and drove away with Jing Xi.
The ck Jaguar stopped in front of a small vi. Lou Ziling got out of the car and walked to the front passenger seat. She opened the door and said,Get out of the car.
Jing Xi didnt move. She looked at Lou Ziling vigntly.Where is this ce? I dont know this ce. Are you going to sell me out?
Sell it?
Would anyone dare to buy it?
Even if someone dared to buy it, he would not dare to sell it!
Be good and get out of the car. Its safe here.
Where is this? Jing Xi repeated, not moving.
My home.
Your house? Jing Xis eyes lit up. This Eh, thats not right. Isnt the Lou familys Vi in the Rose Community in the North? Were so close to the South and we can even see the sea. How can this be your home?
Lou Ziling wanted tough. How could he be so cautious? would he really sell her out? She even found out his address. She was very smart.
This vi is my personal property.
Thats great! Jing Xi was ted.You really brought me to your privatend!
She walked out of the car with a bright smile and urged Lou Ziling,Lets go, I want to see what your house is like!
Her smile was exceptionally bright under the sun, and her crisp voice went straight into Lou Zilings heart.
Lou Ziling closed her eyes. When she opened them again, the waves in her eyes had disappeared and she became calm again.
He took Jing Xi into the small vi. The flowers and nts in the courtyard were blooming warmly, as if they were weing Jing Xis arrival.
In the living room, Lou Ziling changed her shoes. Jing Xi also took off her shoes and put on Lou Zilings slippers. They walked in excitedly.
Lou Ziling looked at her fair and small feet in his big dark brown slippers. She wanted to stop her but swallowed her words.
Forget it, its just a pair of shoes. If she likes it, then let her wear it. Its nothing.
Jing Xi took off her shoes and walked around the vi excitedly. When Lou Ziling wasnt paying attention, she threw herself into his arms.Lou Ziling, Ill sleep here tonight! She said.
Lou Ziling was almost knocked down by the force of her charge. She took two steps back before she could stabilize herself.
No, you must go home!
No, I have to stay here!
Lou Ziling stopped talking. He would not let Jing Xi stay here. He would send Jing Xi home in the evening, and Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning would be home by then.
Jing Xi thought he had agreed. She took off his clothes with a smile.Look at your clothes, theyre all wet. Now that youre home, quickly change into a clean one! Hmph, that Qi Duoduo is too bad. She sshed water all over you!
Lou Ziling was helpless. She didnt know who sshed the water on her first. At that time, she was full of thorns, but now she had the nerve toin about Qi Duoduos bad behavior.
He grabbed her restless little hand and covered his clothes. He looked down at the little girl who was in high spirits, and his tone had a indulgence that he didnt notice.Dont mess around. Pick a room and rest. Tell me if youre hungry.
Chapter 1472
Chapter 1472: Did he turn stupid from falling?
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Zilings tone was gentle. Her eyes were focused and her voice was not as cold as before.
Jing Xi felt an emotion that she had never felt before. It was a little sweet, a little nostalgic, and her heart was beating at an uncontroble speed.
Her body was healthy, and her organs had been in a stable condition for the past 16 years. A situation like this, where her heart was beating so fast that it was beyond normal, had never happened before.
The external manifestation of her elerated heartbeat was a faint blush on Jing Xis fair face, which was beautiful and delicate.
Sometimes, when a persons beauty reached a certain level, they could easily destroy a city or a person.
Lou Ziling had never cared about a persons appearance. He was an anomaly in his family. He was extremely handsome, but he had never realized that his appearance was outstanding.
His so-called girlfriends were not bad looking, and they were all good at makeup and dressing up. Each of them could be called beautiful.
However, at this moment, he truly felt the power of beauty. It was soul-stirring and made people lose themselves.
There was a Devils voice inside Lou Zilings body shouting,eat her! Shes yours!
Xixi
He mumbled in a low voice. His voice seemed toe from the depths of his soul and waspletely out of his control.
However, the moment he spoke, his will was awakened.
Lou Ziling woke up in shock. When she realized that she had subconsciously hugged Jing Xi, she immediately retracted her hand as if she had been electrocuted.
It was as if Jing Xi was some kind of monster.
He turned around and walked out quickly.
He knew that he could not be alone with her!
Jing Xi was a little surprised. She ran to catch up with Lou Ziling and hugged him from behind.Lou Ziling, where are you going? Do you still want to find that Qi Duoduo? I dont agree!
The 16-year-old girl was almost fully developed. Compared to the young and inexperienced girl from two years ago, she had the fullness and softness that a girl should have at this time.
Her chest was pressed against Lou Zilings back. The feeling waspletely different from that of a man s. Lou Zilings throat was dry and her nerves were tense.
He tried his best to keep his voice calm and cold.Jing Xi, let go!
I wont let go! If I let you go, youll go find someone else. Am I that stupid? Dont think that I didnt see you smiling at Qi Duoduo today. Youve never smiled at me before. Quickly turn around and smile to make it up to me!
Lou Ziling frowned. When did he smile at Qi Duoduo?
It was impossible!
Throughout the entire meal with Qi Duoduo, other than saying a few words to the waiter when they were ordering, he only said two words to Qi Duoduo,no need.
Oh, he remembered. He did smile, but not because of Qi Duoduo, but because
Forget it, I cant think about it, I shouldnt
I didnt smile at her, youre mistaken! Let go, I have to go to thepany. I have a meeting in the afternoon.
Im not seeing things, dont try to fool me!
Jing Xi was not easily fooled. She believed her own eyes.
If youre going to the office, you should change your clothes before going. Youre the president of a big corporation. Its embarrassing to go to the office with your back wet!
Jing Xi said as she hugged Lou Ziling from behind. She reached for his buttons and wanted to help him take off his clothes.
Even though her hands did not touch Lou Zilings skin, he felt his body heat up.
Lou Ziling broke away from Jing Xis hand and went upstairs to change.
Jing Xi saw him go upstairs and pouted.Whats wrong with you? youre so petty that you wont even show me your pectoral muscles! Why is it so awkward for a man to change his clothes? hmm Is he shy?
Jing Xi thought about it and felt that it might be the reason.
She sneaked a smile and sneaked up to the second floor. She quietly approached Lou Zilings changing room.
Jing Xi pressed her ear against the door and listened carefully for a while, but she didnt hear anything.
She rolled her eyes, twisted the door lock hard, and rushed in.
However, Lou Ziling was opening the door from the inside. Jing Xi lost control of her strength and hit Lou Ziling directly.
Lou Ziling didnt expect her toe in so suddenly. Caught off guard, the two of them fell to the floor together.
Lou Ziling subconsciously protected Jing Xi and used her body to cushion her fall so that she would not hurt.
So, Lou Zilingid on the floor, and Jing Xiy on top of him. The two of them were in an intimate and ambiguous position.
Jing Xi couldnt care less about anything else and asked anxiously,Lou Ziling, are you hurt? Who allowed you to suddenly open the door!
Lou Zilings back was burning in pain, but he found the pain interesting. He suddenly smiled and pinched Jing Xis chin.Youre the only one who knows how toin first. Youre lying on my door and barging into my changing room, and youre still so confident?
Jing Xi closed her eyes and shook her head. She suspected that she was dreaming.
The frivolous and handsome man in front of her was Lou Ziling?
Was she stupid from the fall, or was he?
While Jing Xi was still in a daze, Lou Ziling had already retracted his hand and returned to his usual cold and arrogant self.
He pushed Jing Xi away and let her touch the floor. He stood up, flicked his white shirt, and walked out of the dressing room.
Jing Xi sat on the floor and watched Lou Ziling leave. She was a little dumbfounded.
She was stunned. Lou Zilings expression changed too quickly!
ording to the rhythm of the development just now, shouldnt he be holding her chin, pressing her head down, and French kissing her?
In the end, he threw her onto the floor with a cold face and left!
This bastard!
Just now, she was still feeling sorry for him for falling. She should haveid on his neck and bit him hard!
Jing Xi finally came back to her senses, and her rationality and intelligence quickly returned to her mind.
She quickly got up from the floor and was ready to go out and settle the score with Lou Ziling.
However, when she reached the door, she turned back.
The changing room was full of Lou Zilings clothes!
Jing Xi looked at the clothes one by one excitedly. Sportswear, casual wear, suits, shirts, T-shirts, ties, pocket towels, everything.
He was a neat and tidy person. All his clothes were hung neatly in his wardrobe ording to style and color.
She could imagine how he would look when he put on these clothes.
The sportswear was full of vitality, the casual clothes were handsome and casual, and the suit was cold and arrogant
Jing Xi suddenly saw a long box. She opened it curiously, and then her face slowly turned red.
The big box was filled with Lou Zilings underwear.

Trantor: 549690339
ck, white, and grey were neatly ced in the box. They were all brand new.
The underwear was of the same brand and the same style. Obviously, Lou Ziling did not choose the color himself. Instead, the brand of the underwear was well matched and put in a box. Lou Ziling bought an entire box.
Other than that, Jing Xi did not see any old underwear.
Could it be that Lou Ziling threw away her underwear after wearing it once?
He was too prodigal!
Jing Xi covered her mouth andughed as if she had found out a great secret.
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, the door was suddenly pushed open. Lou Ziling returned and strode in.
Jing Xi was so shocked that she identally dropped the box on the ground.
A box of underwear was scattered on the floor.
Lou Ziling stood a meter away from Jing Xi. Her face darkened.Dont touch my things, get out!
He had caught her peeking at his underwear. No matter how strong Jing Xis mental strength was, she couldnt withstand Lou Zilings sharp eyes.Oh, that Ill help you pick it up!
Lou Zilings face darkened.No need. I can pick them up myself.
He should not have brought her home!
This was great. Things were going further and further in a crooked direction!
Lou Ziling bent down, picked up her underwear, and quickly put it back into the box. Her ears were suspiciously red.
However, when he straightened his back, his cold face was as if nothing had happened.
Lou Ziling walked to the suit he had changed out of and took out the Jade Guanyin from the pocket of his suit. Then, he put it into the pocket of his suit pants.
He had been so distracted by Jing Xi that he had forgotten about the Jade Guanyin.
Jing Xis sharp eyes caught sight of the piece of Jade in Lou Zilings hand, which was tied with a ck rope. She ran over and snatched it. What are you holding? why are you so mysterious? let me see!
She thought that it was a love token from another woman to Lou Ziling. After she looked at both sides of the Jade, she said in surprise,Isnt this the Jade Guanyin that I gave you? You actually still kept it. I thought you threw it away!
Lou Ziling didnt know why she had kept this Jade for so long.
After a moment of silence, he said indifferently,Well, then throw it away!
Lou Ziling was about to throw away Jing Xis things, but Jing Xi was not angry. She looked at Lou Ziling suspiciously.Do you think my carving skills are too lousy?
Yes! Lou Ziling nodded.
Jing Xi snorted and looked down at the jade pendant in her hand. She suddenly felt that the carving was really terrible. It was a waste of a good Hetian jade.
This Jade Guanyin was her first work when she first learned how to carve. She thought it was meaningful and gave it to Lou Ziling.
But now, even Jing Xi herself felt that Guanyin was as fat as if she had eaten too much. It really didnt match Lou Zilings cold and aloof status as the president!
Oh my, this is too rough. My carving skills have improved greatly. Ill carve a beautiful one for youter. Ill just throw this away!
Jing Xi said as she threw the Jade Guanyin out of the window.
Lou Zilings face was expressionless, as if Jing Xi had just thrown a worthless stone. However, his tone was a little cold.Alright, go find a room to rest. Dont touch my things again. Im going to thepany!
But Lou Zilings tone was so cold that Jing Xi didnt notice any difference.
However, seeing that he didnt seem to be very happy, she pouted and obediently walked out of his changing room to rest in the bedroom.
The bedrooms in the vi were decorated ording to Lou Zilings preferences. Jing Xi looked at all the bedrooms and found that they were all simple ck and white.
There were not many decorations in the bedroom. The bed sheets, quilt, and pillow were all white with dark lines. It made Jing Xi feel like she was staying in a hotel. It did not feel like she was living in Lou Zilings life at all.
She took off Lou Zilings big slippers andid on the bed. She could tell at a nce that the bedsheets were new and had not been used.
The bed was veryfortable, but Jing Xi kept sighing.The hotel room was also more humane than Lou Zilings room.
The decorations of a room were the best way to tell a persons inner world.
Jing Xi finally understood that Lou Ziling was a robot who had no emotional needs.
He was a loner, but he never felt lonely. On the contrary, he seemed to like loneliness and enjoyed it.
He had an extremely high IQ and looked at the world with cold eyes. He didnt need anyonespany at all.
No wonder she had spent so much energy to cling onto him and not enter his heart or his spiritual world.
His outer shell was too hard,parable to diamond!
Well, very good. He was not moved by external things. If she could not enter his world, no one else could easily enter it.
From the looks of it, including Qi Duoduo, his five and a half girlfriends, none of them had seeded. Lou Ziling would not remember them at all.
Jing Xi was finally relieved. She closed her eyes with a smile and fell asleep.
When she woke up again, it was already dusk.
The summer evening sun was no longer harsh, but rather gentle. The gorgeous rays of the sunset covered the horizon, and the clouds were red. She looked like a shy little girl, cute and beautiful.
Jing Xi ran to the balcony barefooted and watched the setting sun slowly fall from the edge of the sea.
The evening wind blew up her dress and her soft hair. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her body, making her look like a fairy who had identally entered the mortal world, pure and beautiful.
Lou Ziling opened the door and saw a picturesque scene.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Jing Xi turned around and smiled. Her eyes were as bright as the stars.Lou Ziling, its so beautiful outside. I like it here!
Yes, its very beautiful, but everything else pales inparison to your smile. Youre the most beautiful scenery.
Lou Ziling leaned against the door. She didnt say anything and didnt move.
He didnt want to go in and destroy the painting.
He might only be able to see such a picture scroll once in his life.
Lou Ziling didnt want to get close to the painting, but the painting didnt want to see him inside.
Jing Xi walked to him with a smile, took his hand, and pulled him to the balcony. She pointed to a ce in the distance and said in a clear and sweet voice,Look, theres a rainbow in the sky!
Lou Ziling replied with a soft hmm. She wanted to withdraw her hand but did not move.
Her hands were really soft.
His heart couldnt help but soften.
Lou Ziling felt very rxed. Even when he had won the 100 million Yuan deal, he did not feel as intoxicating as he was now.
He could clearly hear a voice in his heart saying,Lou Ziling, you are getting more and more dangerous.
Chapter 1474
Chapter 1474: I knew you were good to me!
Trantor: 549690339
The scenery outside was like a painting. Lou Ziling had bought this vi for several years. He and Lou ruofei each had one. It was a gift from Lou Mingyang to the siblings for theiring of age ceremony.
Lou Ziling had only moved in recently. This ce was close to thepany and convenient for working.
However, ever since he moved in, he had nevere to the balcony to look at the scenery. He had never known that the scenery outside was so beautiful.
He lowered his head and saw Jing Xis bare feet.
Why arent you wearing shoes?
Your shoes are too big. Ill wear size 37 shoes. Remember to buy me a pair!
What did she mean? was she going to stay in his house?
Lou Ziling shook her head. She was not in the mood to buy slippers for Jing Xi.
The sun gradually set below the horizon, and it was dark outside. Lou Ziling held Jing Xis hand and pulled her back into the bedroom.
Put on your shoes and go down to eat something.
Jing Xi put on Lou Zilings big slippers and touched her belly.Yes, Im hungry. But do you know how to cook?
I can only cook instant noodles. Do you want some?
Jing Xis eyes curved. I remember that the food you cook is very delicious!
There was no skill in cooking instant noodles. Everyones taste was almost the same. Only Jing Xi would think that his cooking was delicious. Lou Ziling would only cook instant noodles when she was hungry and had nothing to eat.
He usually ate outside, and the servants he hired only cleaned the house every morning. They were not responsible for cooking.
Perhaps he should hire another chef?
Lou Ziling was stunned when this thought shed through her mind.
He was a very picky person, but even if there was no food, he would cook instant noodles. He could enjoy the most exquisite and delicious meal, and when the conditions did not allow him to eat, he could also eat simple and crude food.
He had never thought of hiring a chef for himself.
But now, just because Jing Xi was only here for a meal, he wanted to hire a chef.
Aplicated look shed in his eyes, but it disappeared very quickly. He strode into the kitchen to cook noodles.
Jing Xi wandered around curiously and looked around Lou Zilings Vi. She muttered to herself,It seems like he lives alone. There are no traces of a woman
Lou Ziling finished cooking the noodles and brought them to the dining room, but Jing Xi was nowhere to be seen. She called out to her,Jing Xi,e and eat!
Theyreing!
Yes, Jing Xi replied. She walked out of his bathroom and quickly walked to Lou Ziling.
As she watched Jing Xi walk closer and closer to her, Lou Ziling suddenly felt as if they had been living together for a long time.
Usually at home, when the food was ready, his mother would call his father to eat like this.
Jing Xi smelled the fragrance and suddenly hugged Lou Ziling.Lou Ziling, hurry up and learn how to cook. You can cook for me in the future!
Lou Ziling froze for a full two minutes.
Aiya, its so fragrant, its so delicious! Im starving, and you only cooked two bowls? I think I can eat three bowls!
Lou Ziling came back to her senses and saw Jing Xi eating instant noodles elegantly at the dining table. She sat down, took another bowl of noodles, and started eating.
Jing Xis eyes widened as she looked at him. I thought these two bowls were mine! Go, go, go, youre not allowed to snatch it from me. If you go and cook it again, these are all mine!
The bowl was not very big. Jing Xi had not eaten anything since noon and was so hungry that she wanted to eat anything she saw.
Lou Zilings style of instant noodles was a continuation of his previous style. He added Eggs and Ham. Jing Xi couldnt forget it after eating it once. She had been thinking about it for a long time. Now that she had it again, she wanted to eat more.
She reached out to grab Lou Zilings bowl, but Lou Ziling grabbed her wrist.
Lou Ziling felt a little helpless. It was just the most ordinary instant noodles. It was not anything good. Why did Jing Xi snatch it from him every time?
Dont mess around. Eat your own bowl. Ive already had my bowl.
I dont mind even if Ive eaten! Didnt you always eat the small cakes I left behind?
As Jing Xi spoke, she suddenly rolled her eyes.Look, I used to leave my cake for you to eat. Why cant you leave instant noodles for me?
Lou Zilingughed at her in her heart. She was always so righteous. She gave him the food because she didnt like it. Now, she was saying it so nicely.
He let go of Jing Xis slender wrist and said,Theres more in the pot, enough for you to eat.
Jing Xi was overjoyed. She ran to the kitchen and saw that there was still a lot of food left. She ran back to her seat and started eating.
She was famished and finished a bowl in a short while. She went into the kitchen and scooped out another bowl. She ate it with satisfaction.Lou Ziling, I know you are good to me! Youre the most handsome!
Lou Ziling looked at her lively expression and still felt that she was still a child.
Even though she was extremely intelligent and her brain was filled with a lot of knowledge, she was actually just an ordinary 16-year-old girl in her Prime when it came to rtionships.
He bribed her with a bowl of instant noodles and made her praise him. She felt that he was good to her. How easy it was to satisfy.
Just as Jing Xi had said, she had three bowls of rice, while Lou Ziling had only two.
Jing Xi touched her slightly bulging belly and pulled Lou Zilings arm with a smile.Do I look like Im pregnant?
Lou Ziling took a sip of water and said calmly,It doesnt look like it! When youre pregnant, your stomach will get bigger. Your stomach just got a little bigger.
Jing Xi thought for a while and said,But I remember that my sister-inw was like this when she was pregnant! Its just that her belly is a little bigger than mine, about This big!
As she spoke, she gestured with her hands.
Lou Ziling did not know much about pregnant women. She had never noticed how a pregnant womans stomach looked like when it got bigger. However, it was obvious that being pregnant and having a full stomach were two different things.
She must have a rich imagination to be able to connect all these with Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling finished her water and stood up.Lets go!
Where are you going? Jing Xi got up and followed him.
Ill send you home.
Ah?
Im not going back! Jing Xi immediately stopped.I promised Id stay here!
No, I didnt agree.
When I asked you before, you clearly admitted it. Why are you not admitting it now?
Lou Zilings heart softened when she saw Jing Xis angry face, but she didnt waver.Its not suitable for you to stay here. You should go home!
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked out.
Jing Xi stomped her feet in anger, but she had no choice but to follow.
She could stay here if she wanted to, but Lou Ziling would definitely call Jing Yichen.
However, when she walked out, she found out that even if Lou Ziling didnt call Jing Yichen, he hade to pick her up.
Chapter 1475
Chapter 1475: Fatherly love
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi walked slowly to Jing Yichens side and called him,Dad, why are you here?
She didnt evene home when she came back. If I didnte back, she might have forgotten about her parents.
Jing Yichen looked calm and it was hard to tell if he was angry or not.
Jing Xi tugged at his sleeve.Aiya, how could I forget you and mom? I just happened to meet an acquaintance when I returned to the country. He invited me to dinner, so I couldnt refuse!
Lou Ziling, who was standing behind Jing Xi, wanted to hold his forehead. She was good at making up stories. What if Jing Yichen misunderstood and thought that he was trying to kidnap an underaged girl?
Jing Yichen pulled back his sleeve and knocked on Jing Xis head.Quick, get in the car. Your mom is waiting for you at home.
Oh, okay!
Okay, Jing Xi replied. She turned to look at Lou Ziling before getting into the car.
Lou Ziling stepped forward and greeted,President Jing, how are you? Jing Xi rested for a while at my ce today, and I was just about to send her home.
Jing Yichen nodded slightly.
Im leaving, he said. Then he turned around, got into the car, and left with Jing Xi.
The silver-white Aston Martin gradually disappeared into the distance. Lou Ziling looked at the sports car that was worth tens of millions and had a unique logo in the entire A city. She stood in ce for a long time.
Unknowingly, his back was already drenched.
Jing Yichen had given him a lot of pressure, and this pressure came from many aspects.
He knew that Jing Yichen didnt talk much. He had met Jing Yichen a few times with Lou Mingyang, but each time was very short and they didnt talk much.
Jing Yichen didnt like to talk, and neither did Lou Ziling. Both of them were cold and had nothing to say.
Every time he saw Jing Yichen, Lou Ziling would unconsciously think about when he would be able to reach Jing Yichens level and stand at the top to protect his family, to shelter them from the wind and rain and to bring them glory that no one else could ever hope to achieve.
the family name jing was very rare. in A city, anyone with the family name jing would be associated with family jing and jing yichen.
lou ziling stood silently. he hoped that one day, the lou family would be in the limelight and people would respect and admire them when they heard their surnames.
He still had a long, long way to go
Dreams and ambitions were what men should have. Even if they were a little unrealistic, they would support him to move forward without hesitation.
Sitting in the car, Jing Xi turned around and kept looking at Lou Ziling, not caring that Jing Yichen was sitting next to her.
She realized that Lou Ziling had been standing still and staring at her.
It was not until Lou Zilings tall figure turned into a small ck dot that Jing Xi turned around and said to Jing Yichen,Dad, Lou Ziling has been looking at me!
Jing Yichen looked calm.You are overthinking. He might not be looking at you. He might be looking at my car.
Dad, youre so bad at talking. How did you get together with my mom? Jing Xi pouted.
Didnt your mother already tell you? I forced her to register her marriage at the Civil Affairs Bureau. I took advantage of her when she was in a vulnerable state.
Jing Yichen paused and a smile appeared on his cold face as he thought of what had happened back then.However, Ive always been good with words when ites to your mother.
Jing Xi nodded. That was true. Her father was a perfect man with her mother.
But Im still your daughter. Its not good to hurt your daughters young heart like this, right?
Its better for me to hurt your heart than for someone else to hurt your heart.
This other person was Lou Ziling.
Jing Yichen didnt think that Lou Ziling had any romantic feelings for Jing Xi, and he didnt want Lou Ziling to have any other thoughts about Jing Xi.
Jing Xi was only 16 years old. She was his and Shangguan nings baby. They had raised her with care and love. How could she be taken away by Lou Ziling when she was still a minor?
Jing Yichen had spent so much time and effort on Jing Xi that Jing Xi had no idea that he had spent so many sleepless nights for her.
She retained the innocence, kindness, and naivety of a little girl. She was lively, cheerful, independent, and self-reliant. However, when faced with danger and pressure, she was able to remain calm.
She could withstand the darkness, but she could also y happily under the sun.
Because Jing Yichen had taught her everything he could and protected her.
He had already paved the way for his daughters life for the next few decades. He was only waiting for her to move forward happily.
In Jing Yichens eyes, Lou Ziling was not a good match for his daughter.
He didnt even take a fancy to the Ji familys future sessor, Ji moxuan. How could he easily hand his daughter over to a small family?
Jing Yichen didnt care about money. He didntck money. What he cared about was theprehensive strength of the family, the ability to protect Jing Xi in the future.
At least for now, the Lou family didnt have the strength, and the Ji family was barely able to do so.
He had allowed Lou Ziling to get close to Jing Xi in the past because he wanted Jing Xi to have one more friend and ymate.
He still did not interfere with Jing Xi and Lou Zilings rtionship. After all, Lou Ziling was an outstanding young man.
However, he would not allow Jing Xi to stay at Lou Zilings ce. He would also remind Jing Xi from time to time, when it was appropriate, that Lou Ziling did not have deep feelings for her and hoped that she would not fall too deeply in love.
There was no hurry. His daughter was only sixteen years old.
She hadnt had a good rtionship yet, so perhaps she didnt quite understand what love was.
She had been talking about getting married since she was a child, so Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning had gotten used to their daughter chasing after handsome boys.
She was just saying it for fun every time, and she would always forget about him very quickly.
When she was eight years old, didnt she say that she wanted to marry Lou Ziling, who had saved her?
In the end, she still forgot about Lou Ziling.
However, this time, it was a little different. She had liked Lou Ziling for more than two years.
But Jing Yichen wasnt too worried. He believed that Jing Xi would be able to handle it.
He only hoped that she would grow up a little more and get married when she was 26 years old. He hoped that his daughter could live a carefree life for another ten years under his protection.
Jing Xi had no idea what Jing Yichen was thinking. She wanted to get married as soon as possible.
Dad, dont worry. Lou Ziling wont hurt me. He even cooked me some noodles just now! The instant noodles he makes taste really good. Haha, Im so full!
Jing Yichens face darkened after hearing what Jing Xi said.
His daughter was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, and Lou Ziling was the president of Lous group. How could he just send Jing Xi away with a pack of instant noodles?
The point was that his daughter was so silly as to praise Lou Zilings craftsmanship!
Chapter 1476
Chapter 1476: Lets eat instant noodles
Trantor: 549690339
If Lou Ziling, who cooked instant noodles, could be considered good at cooking, then he could be the God of Cooking!
Lou Ziling only served you instant noodles?
Jing Yichens voice was cold. Jing Xi knew immediately that her father was not happy.
She quickly said,Oh, he wanted to treat me well, but he doesnt have anything at home. He only has instant noodles! Besides, I was the one who insisted on eating instant noodles, but you and mom didnt let me eat that. I was just having a secret meal because I was hungry!
Who was Jing Yichen? he was smart and sharp, and he could tell whether Jing Xi was telling the truth or not.
Obviously, Lou Ziling didnt take Jing Xi seriously. That was why she had casually sent her away with instant noodles.
Before he had married Shangguan ning, he couldnt bear to see her ordering take-out all day and eating all kinds of weird things. He even asked the chef to make food for Shangguan ning without telling her.
After they got married, he had never let Shangguan ning go hungry. He would make all kinds of food ording to her taste.
Food was a necessity to maintain life and the foundation to ensure health.
Jing Xi was only 16 years old and was still growing. Lou Ziling could really think of that!
Tell Lou Ziling that if he lets you eat instant noodles again, I will make the Lou family so poor that they wont be able to afford instant noodles!
Jing Xi shivered. Jing Yichen never joked. He sounded like he was going to make the Lou family go bankrupt.
Dad, dont be like this. It wasnt easy for Lou Ziling to make thepany better. You cant touch hispany! Its just instant noodles. Its not like I eat them every day. Its fine! Youre so fierce, do you think Ill tell you the truth in the future?
Jing Yichen didnt think that he was being mean at all. He was just angry at Lou Ziling, not at Jing Xi.
This girls heart was already so biased. As a father, she couldnt tell that he loved his daughter!
Forget it. He had never been good at the rtionship between men and women. He had studied Shangguan ning thoroughly and had never studied any other woman. Jing Xis mind was even more difficult to understand. He would just hand her over to Shangguan ning when they got home.
When they got home, Jing Xi threw herself into Shangguan nings arms.Mom, Im back! I miss you so much! I dont miss my dad at all!
Behind Jing Xi, Jing Yichens face darkened, but Shangguan ning couldnt stopughing. Jing Yichen must have said something to offend her daughter.
Its good that youre back. Come and eat. You must be hungry.
Jing Xi blinked, a little embarrassed.Mom, Ive had dinner She said.
Shangguan ning understood what was going on the moment she saw her.You ate at Lou Zilings ce, right? I didnt expect such a loner to know how to cook!
Jing Xi stammered and didnt say anything. Jing Yichen looked at her and said,What did you cook? you ate instant noodles! This silly girl is so happy that she even praised Lou Zilings cooking skills!
Thats true, Jing Xi whispered.Its just that its cooked well and delicious! Next time, Ill eat instant noodles
Jing Yichen was infuriated by her, but Shangguan ningughed. Im good at cooking instant noodles too. Yichen, do you want to try?
Jing Yichen didnt know what to say. It was true that Shangguan ning didnt know how to cook anything other than instant noodles. Before she met him, she had been eating instant noodles and frozen dumplings.
Seeing that her father had finally lost, Jing Xi was overjoyed.Mom, lets have instant noodles tomorrow morning! Add an egg and some ham. Just eat the seafood-vored ones. Its really good!
Shangguan ning didnt have any limits when it came to spoiling her daughter. Besides, instant noodles werent a big deal, as long as she didnt eat them every day.
Alright, Ill do as you say! Yichen, lets go to the supermarket to buy some seafood instant noodles after dinner. Ah, I havent eaten it in a long time. It should taste good. I really want to eat it!
As long as Shangguan ning had agreed on something, Jing Yichen would never have a bad time. He agreed without thinking.Alright!
Jing Xi was speechless. Why did her father look like he was going to kill her just because she wanted to eat instant noodles? why did her father think that instant noodles were good just because her mother wanted to eat them?
I dont care. Anyway, Ill have instant noodles tomorrow morning. Thats great!
Maybe she could learn how to cook noodles from her mother and cook for Lou Ziling in the future!
Jing Xi was happy just thinking about it. Lou Ziling would be surprised if she knew how to cook instant noodles.
She hummed a song as she went to her room. She took a change of clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After dinner, Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen went out for a walk and bought some instant noodles from the supermarket. They had plenty of Eggs and Ham at home, but they didnt have instant noodles.
The next morning, Jing Xi got up and learned from Shangguan ning how to use natural gas and how to cook noodles.
Cooking instant noodles was the most unskilled way of cooking. With Jing Xis intelligence, she learned how to cook after Shangguan ning exined it once.
However, after she cooked the instant noodles, she felt that it did not taste right.
Why was it not as good as Lou Ziling s?
When Lou Ziling cooked for her in the United States, she had been there the whole time. She had used the same method as Shangguan ning and added the same ingredients.
Could it be that there was a slight difference between Eggs and Ham?
Thats not right. The Eggs and Ham she had at Lou Zilings ce yesterday were almost the same as the ones at her house.
Jing Xi didnt eat as much as she did the night before. She only had a small bowl and went to eat the blueberry cake.
But Jing Yichen, who disliked instant noodles very much, ate the instant noodles made by Shangguan ning. He thought it was so delicious that he even finished the soup.
He even wiped the corner of his lips and said indifferently,Its not bad. I can go and buy some instant noodles at night.
Shangguan ning burst intoughter. Jing Yichen finally knew that instant noodles were delicious and convenient.
After breakfast, the couple went to Jingsheng enterprise and Liyu Science & Technology respectively. Jing Xi changed her clothes and went out as soon as they left.
She asked the driver to send her to Lou Zilings Vi, but the door was closed. Jing Xi only hesitated for a second before she lifted her skirt and climbed over the wall.
The two bodyguards who came with her were a little helpless. This young miss had learned all these skills, but she was actually using them to climb walls!
They also wanted to climb over the wall to protect Jing Xi, but they were stopped by Jing Xi with a look.
There was no danger here anyway, so the two bodyguards did not go against Jing Xis wishes and waited outside.
A momentter, Jing Xi climbed out of the wall again.To the office building of the Lou group!
The bodyguard smiled. It seemed that Lou Ziling had gone to work early in the morning. Lou Ziling was really diligent.
The driver took Jing Xi and the bodyguard to Lou Zilingspany.
Chapter 1477
Chapter 1477: Donte again
Trantor: 549690339
Even though the scale of the Lou Corporation had expanded, they still used the original office building.
This building belonged to Jingsheng enterprise, but it was only a long-term lease to the Lou family.
Originally, the use of this building was rtively low. However, two years after Lou Ziling took over the Lou familyspany, this building was fully used.
Jing Xi got out of the car and looked at the 15-story building. She suddenly felt very proud.
This was the building of family Jing, and the one who worked in it was Lou Ziling. He had grown up in this ce day by day.
Jing Xi adjusted her white dress and walked in.
The chauffeur was waiting outside, and the two bodyguards followed him on either side.
Jing Xi was stopped in the lobby of the office building.
Miss, do you have an appointment?
No, I didn t!
Then who are you looking for? Ill help you contact them!
The female staff at the front desk was very polite, and her words were also very respectful.
She had been working here for a long time and had developed the ability to recognize people.
Jing Xi was a well-known woman from head to toe. She had an outstanding temperament and a wless face. She was followed by two strong bodyguards in suits and leather shoes. One look and you could tell that she was the daughter of an influential family.
Moreover, she was the daughter of a young family.
In the past year, many daughters from rich families hade to theirpany. All six girlfriends of President Lou Ziling had been there.
The female staff at the front desk seriously suspected that this was their presidents seventh girlfriend.
She was just a little puzzled. The sixth generation had juste yesterday morning, and the seventh Generation was going to be reced this morning?
The speed at which he changed girlfriends was too fast!
Sure enough, before the female employee could finish her doubts, she heard the other party say, Im looking for Lou Ziling! Did hee to thepany?
The female employee sighed in her heart. She felt that Lou Ziling was too fickle in love. When she first joined thepany, she was still infatuated with the president. However, after a year, she no longer had any feelings for the president.
No woman would be able to stand such a yboy!
President Lou, youre here. May I know misss name? Ill ask him if he has time. President Lou is very busy, you might have to wait if you want to see him.
No, no, no, you dont have to tell him. Tell me where his office is. Ill go up and surprise him!
Jing Xi was good-tempered and did not force her way in. She felt that it was a good thing that the front desk staff had done their job to help him stop people in Lou Zilingspany.
Otherwise, she would be very upset if a woman could see Lou Ziling.
This wont do. Miss, if you go up directly, our President Lou will fire meter. Please dont make things difficult for me.
The female employee said it pitifully, but Jing Xi could tell at a nce that she did not mean it. She was just saying it in a formic way.
There must be a lot of women who came to look for Lou Ziling.
Otherwise, this female employee wouldnt have been trained to have such a pitiful yet unamodating face.
However, Jing Xi was determined to give Lou Ziling a surprise. She thought for a while, then left the hall and stood outside.
If theyout of Lous enterprise was simr to that of Jingsheng enterprise, then Lou Zilings office should be on the 14th floor, and the 15th floor should be the meeting room for important people.
Climbing more than ten floors was a piece of cake for Jing Xi.
The only thing he needed to be careful of was to not dirty his white dress.
She tied a sunblock around her waist to prevent the bottom of her dress from being exposed and to prevent her white dress from getting dirty.
After that, Jing Xi opened the trunk of the car and looked for a tool to climb the building.
The two bodyguards saw this and knew that she was going to climb the stairs. They couldnt help but advise her,Miss, its a little dangerous. Lets enter from the front door. The female employee can just knock her out!
Hey, old Yan, why are you so violent? shes a pretty girl, how could you knock her out? No wonder you cant find a girlfriend. You have to be gentler to girls in the future!
Yan Fan felt a little helpless. He spent most of his time protecting Jing Xi and had no time to find a girlfriend. Besides, he had always felt that women were too troublesome and that it was easier to be alone.
He wasnt someone who had tender feelings for women, and women had never been his weakness.
He had been chosen from thousands of people by Jing Yichen to stay by Jing Xis side and protect her. He had to have no weakness.
Jing Xi did not care about Yan fans helplessness. She told him to wait outside, then found a suitable spot with her tools and began to climb the stairs.
It only took Jing Xi two or three minutes to climb up the dozen floors.
She climbed in through an open window, put away her tools, took off her sunblock, wrapped her tools, and threw them out of the window.
Yan Fan, who was downstairs, would definitely pick up the tools and put them back in the trunk.
As for whether or not the tools would break, it was not within Jing Xis consideration.
She looked up and down and saw that her dress was not dirtied at all. She nodded in satisfaction and began to look for Lou Zilings office.
The 14th floor was very quiet, and there were not many people, but the decorations were very elegant and simple. Even the corridors were covered with floral carpets.
Jing Xi nced around and knew that she had guessed right. The presidents office was on this floor.
Lou Ziling was very alert. Jing Xi was afraid of being discovered by him, so she walked quietly in the corridor.
It didnt take much effort to find Lou Zilings office. Jing Xis eyes lit up when she saw a namete with the word President on it. Then, she knocked on the door.
Lou Zilings crisp and powerful voice came from inside,Come in!
The moment she heard his voice, Jing Xi felt a little nervous.
She took a deep breath, pushed the door open, and walked in.
She saw the clean and bright office and Lou Ziling, who was sitting at the desk by the window without looking up.
He was facing the light, his face in the shadows as he quickly flipped through the documents.
For some reason, Jing Xis heart ached when she saw his thin face.
Lou Ziling, have you always been working so hard?
Lou Zilings whole body stiffened. Her hand that was flipping through the documents stopped in mid-air. She raised her head in surprise.What are you doing here?
He had thought that it was his assistant who hade in. He had not expected it to be Jing Xi!
The people in the lobby didnt stop you? he frowned after the surprise.
He had already instructed his assistant to remind everyone that no matter who came to look for him, they must first get his approval beforeing up. Did this front desk job not want to work anymore?
Jing Xi slowly approached Lou Ziling and whispered,I did. I didnte in from the front hall. I climbed in.
Lou Ziling was stunned for a while before she nodded. It was indeed easy for her to climb the stairs.
Im very busy and cant take care of you now. You should go home! Also, this is my workce, donte again!

You dont want to see me?
Jing Xi still had a beautiful smile on her face, but her eyes were burning with anger.You chased me away so that you could make room for Qi Duoduo, right?
Lou Ziling didnt know why, but as she spoke, she started to talk about Qi Duoduo again. What did this have to do with Qi Duoduo?
He didnt say anything. He lowered his head and continued to read his documents.
However, he was usually very efficient in reading documents, but this time, he did not turn the page for a long time.
No, he had to let Jing Xi go. She was standing there, and he was seriously distracted. He couldnt even read a page.
Just as this thought shed through Lou Zilings mind, his assistant, Wu Shen, knocked on the door carefully.President Lou.
What is it? Lou Ziling raised her head.
Wu Shen nced at Jing Xi, who was dressed in white, and said,Miss Qi is here to visit.
Wu Shen didnt know who Jing Xi was, but he had overheard their conversation. He didnt mean to eavesdrop, but the two of them didnt even close the door. He had been standing outside the door for a while, but no one had responded.
It was obvious that Jing Xi was another of Lou Zilings suitors. In just a few words, his assistant could tell that Lou Ziling treated Jing Xi differently from other women.
The most obvious thing was that Lou Ziling had never let any of his girlfriends into his office. Jing Xi was the first.
Miss Qi. Lou Zilings mind spun for a while before he realized who it was. Jing Xi was beside him, and his brains reaction speed had slowed down.
But Jing Xi reacted in a second. She turned to Wu Shen and said,Qi Duoduo? What is she doing here? chase her away!
Wu Shen didnt move. He just looked at Lou Ziling and waited for his orders. He didnt know who Jing Xi was, so he wouldnt listen to her.
Seeing that Wu Shen did not move and Lou Ziling did not speak, Jing Xi was annoyed.Lou Ziling, if you dare to see her, I will tear down your office! Then, Ill go down and tear Qi Duoduo apart!
Lou Ziling knew very well that he could not see Qi Duoduo in Jing Xis presence. Otherwise, she would really tear down his office.
However, he didnt n to see Qi Duoduo during working hours.
Unless they were here to discuss a coboration, he would not meet any woman during working hours.
His so-called girlfriends had alle to thepany to look for him, but he usually let his assistant receive them or simply said that he wasnt around and drove them away.
Lou Ziling nodded at Wu Shen.Go and receive them. I still have something to do.
Wu Shen received the order and quickly left.
Are you going on a date with that woman again if I didnte today? Jing Xi asked unhappily.
I won t,
Then why didnt you just drive her away?
Lou Ziling did not answer her question. He stood up and walked to Jing Xi.Ill send you down.
Jing Xi looked up at him, and the smile on her face disappeared.You wont let Qi Duoduo go, but you want me to go? Lou Ziling, Im telling you, dont even think about marrying any woman before I grow up! Either you choose me, or you die alone!
There was a childish stubbornness on her slightly tender face. Her white dress clung to her body, revealing the most perfect curves of a young girl.
Lou Zilings heart softened, but the words that came out of her mouth were cruel.Then Ill be alone for the rest of my life. I wont choose you, so just give up!
This was the first time Lou Ziling had rejected Jing Xi so clearly.
Jing Xi looked at him in disbelief and said in a trembling voice,Youd rather spend the rest of your life alone than have me?
Lou Ziling said slowly, word by word,Im not willing!
Jing Xis eyes quickly welled up with tears.Why?
Where am I not good? Im very smart, and I wont be a burden to you in any way! We all know what family Jing is capable of. With the help of family Jing, yourpany will develop faster and better!
Lou Zilings expression was calm and emotionless. She said in a formal tone,Its not because youre bad, I just dont want to use you. Thepanys development is entirely up to my own ability. Im not so useless that I have to rely on women for a living.
Then why did you have so many girlfriends before? Dont try to lie to me, I know youre working with all those familypanies!
Yes, cooperation. It is just a cooperation. I have a cooperation with Jingsheng enterprise. They achieved their goal, so they had no more value in existence, so they broke up very quickly.
Lou Zilings words were too cruel. Jing Xi felt like her heart was being torn apart, even though she had always known that Lou Ziling was a cold and heartless person.
You mean, Im like your six girlfriends. After youve used me once and achieved the goal of cooperation, you can kick me away?
A voice in Lou Zilings heart was saying,no, youre different.
However, it only took a moment for him to suppress the voice.
The voice in his heart gradually disappeared, and his rationality and coldness came back. His voice was as ruthless as ever. Its enough to use you once. I wont use you again. Youre still young, go find someone else to y with, Im very busy!
Thest thing Jing Xi ever wanted to hear was youre still young!
Little, little, she was already 16, which was the legal age for marriage in some countries! Its not small! What did he mean by find someone else to y with?
Lou Ziling, dont be so arrogant! Jing Xis face turned pale. Your office belongs to Jingsheng enterprise. If you are so cold-blooded, do you think I will be even more cold-blooded than you?
Its not like Ive been cold-blooded for a day or two. You shouldve known that Im inhumane since I was eight years old.
Youre talking nonsense! You even saved me when I was eight years old. You didnt even know my identity at that time!
How can you be so sure that I dont know your identity?
Lou Zilings face was indifferent, and the words she said were as cold as ice.It was the Lou family who abducted you. I was only afraid that the Lou family would be destroyed, so I saved you out of self-protection!
Thats impossible. My dad said its not like that!
Oh, then I might have even fooled President Jing!
Jing Xis tears suddenly fell. She threw herself into Lou Zilings arms and bit him through his shirt.
Lou Ziling didnt move or make a sound, letting her bite her.
She bit hard and it hurt, but Lou Ziling wanted her to bite harder.
This way, he would feel better.
She cried so hard that he wanted to reach out to hold her, to stroke her soft hair, to wipe away her cold tears, but he did not reach out in the end.
Lou Ziling hoped that he and Jing Xi would end things here and now.

Jing Xi held Lou Zilings waist and listened to his strong heartbeat. She could not help but smell the blood in her mouth.
She let go of her teeth with teary eyes. Then, she saw that Lou Zilings white shirt was stained red.
She bit the skin on his chest.
Jing Xi raised her head and looked at Lou Ziling, who was very close to her.Why didnt you stop me when I bit you until you bled?
Im cold-blooded and heartless. I cant feel pain.
Nonsense, youre also a human, how can you not be in pain!
After Jing Xi bit Lou Ziling, she felt her heart ache.
She let go and took a step back, wiping her tears.In order to make me give up, you even twisted the fact that you saved me. Im different from other people. When I was eight, my memory was already very good. I can remember all your words and actions, so theres no need to defame yourself.
Lou Ziling stood there with his back straight, as if he was not the one who had been bitten, as if the person Jing Xi had mentioned was not him. He was as cold and proud as a rock on the peak, as if nothing could prate his heart.
However, you have to remember that you are the one who chose to die alone. I will get rid of all the women around you!
Jing Xi wiped her tears and ran her fingers through her long hair. She took Lou Zilings ck phone from the desk and looked at it as a mirror. After making sure that she was in good condition, she threw the phone back on the table.
She walked out with steady steps and said,now, Ill go and deal with that Qi Duoduo or whatever! Youd better not go down to support Qi Duoduo. Otherwise, if I identally hurt you, dont me me for being too ruthless!
She walked out of the office without looking back, leaving Lou Ziling standing alone in the same ce, lost in thought for a long time.
Support?
How could he support Qi Duoduo!
idental injury?
Yes, she was merciless, like an angry little lion.
Lou Ziling subconsciously touched her chest where Jing Xi had bitten her. She couldnt help but cry out in pain.
The little girls mouth was sharp, but her mouth was really ruthless!
In the future, he could not easily provoke her, or else he would really be torn apart by her!
Lou Ziling slowly walked to her chair and sat down. She stared at the document for a long time, but she didnt even read a word.
He couldnt help but unbutton his shirt and look down at the bloody bite mark on his chest.
Lou Ziling didnt look away until her neck was sore from lowering her head for too long.
However, after a while, he wanted to see the bite mark again.
Lou Ziling pinched the space between her eyebrows. She felt that she had gone crazy!
He actually thought that the bite mark was very nice and even cute!
He had really gone crazy!
Jing Xi took the elevator directly to the lobby on the first floor. She walked to the female staff at the front desk, ignored her surprised look, and asked lightly,Wheres Qi Duoduo?
Huh? the female employee was a little stunned.
She was still in shock as to why Jing Xi hade out of the building. She had not let Jing Xi in!
Where did Lou Zilings assistant take Qi Duoduo, who just came? Take me to her.
Miss, our visitors are all confidential. If youre friends, Ill help you ask miss Qi if she wants to see you!
Jing Xi had been hurt badly by Lou Ziling and was no longer as good-tempered as she had been when she first came. She waved at the two bodyguards who had been waiting outside, and they immediately walked in.
Miss!
Go in and find Qi Duoduo. Bring her down. I want to see her!
Yes!
The two bodyguards quickly walked in, and the female staff at the front desk couldnt stop them at all. She anxiously used the walkie-talkie to ask for help from the security Department, but it was useless even if the entire Security Department was mobilized!
The difference in strength between the two was too great. Jing Xis two bodyguards were both outstanding. It didnt take long for Qi Duoduo to be brought down.
Jing Xi took a chair from the front desk and sat in the clean and spacious lobby. She ignored the pointing and whispering of Lou Zilings employees and calmly waited for Qi Duoduo to approach.
Qi Duoduo was held up by two bodyguards and dragged to Jing Xi without her feet touching the ground.
She had never been in such a sorry state in front of so many people before!
When she arrived in front of Jing Xi and saw her face, Qi Duoduo was so angry that her hair almost stood up!
She struggled to free herself from the two bodyguards grasp and shouted angrily,You again? You pestered Ziling yesterday and came to see me today, didnt you? It must be because Ziling didnt want to see you, so you vented your anger on me! Youre shameless!
Jing Xi sat there elegantly and reached out her beautiful slender hand.No, miss Qi. Lou Ziling just saw me. If you dont believe me, you can ask his assistant. I just came out of his office!
She nced at Qi Duoduo and shook her head lightly.AI, hes so ugly!
This kind of Kings contempt made Qi Duoduo, who had always been used to being high and mighty, so angry that she almost vomited blood.
Yesterday, Jing Xi had poured arge ss of water on her, and she had yet to settle the score with Jing Xi. She didnt expect that today, even though the old hatred had not subsided, there was a new hatred!
Qi Duoduo didnt care about her image anymore. She couldnt care less about the people around her. She went up to pull Jing Xis hair and scratched Jing Xis face with her sharp nails.
Jing Xi sat still, but Qi Duoduos hand stopped a centimeter in front of her and could not move forward.
Because Jing Xis two bodyguards had already held her down.
Then, she was thrown far away by Yan Fan.
Qi Duoduoy on the ground, feeling as if her internal organs had shifted. After a while, she started to cry in pain and grievance.
Where are my bodyguards? Where the hell have you all gone! All of you are good-for-nothing!
Ziling, someone is bullying me! Im going to be beaten to death,e quickly!
You little B * tch, youll never win Zilings heart if youre so vicious! He only likes me!
Qi Duoduo was still cursing. Jing Xi stood up from her chair and walked over to her.
It was obvious that he wasnt injured after cursing so angrily.
Qi Duoduo, Jing Xi said condescendingly,Im only teaching you a little lesson today. If you dare to look for Lou Ziling again, youll be beaten up every day! Of course, Ill definitely beat him up harder than today, and Ill especially hit his face!
Qi Duoduo endured the pain and got up from the ground. But then she realized that even when she stood up, she didnt seem to be as tall as Jing Xi. She couldnt look down on her opponent.
She was so angry that even her voice was unusually sharp.Who Do You Think You Are to lecture me? Just you wait, my familys power will definitely make you regret ever being born!
Qi Duoduo knew that she couldnt beat Jing Xis two bodyguards, so she decided not to fight them head-on. She went home to get help first!
Sure, Ill wait for you, Jing Xi said.My surname is Jing. Dont get the wrong person.
The surname Jing?
Qi Duoduos eyes shed with a trace of shock!
No, impossible!
Chapter 1480
Chapter 1480: Only one person is an exception
Trantor: 549690339
There were only a few people with the surname Jing in A city. The first one that came to Qi Duoduos mind was the famous Jing family.
However, Qi Duoduo didnt believe that she would be so lucky that she would meet the most mysterious and powerful little princess of A city twice!
Didnt the rumors say that the little princess was studying abroad?
However, the age of the girl in front of him seemed to match the little princess s!
Qi Duoduos arrogance was extinguished in an instant, and she looked at Jing Xi in shock and doubt.
Her temperament and appearance were outstanding, and she seemed to be unafraid of anything. When the people of A city heard her name, Qi Duoduo, they would be polite to her on ount of the Qi familys status.
Only this young girl in front of her did not care about the Qi family at all.
Qi Duoduo didnte back to her senses until Jing Xi left the hall with her bodyguards.
She didnt want to find Lou Ziling anymore. She quickly left the lobby and drove home.
She was not at a high enough level to get in touch with family Jing. She needed to go home and confirm with her father.
Most people in A city knew about the existence of Jing Xi, the little devil. They knew that she was the precious daughter of the Jing family. She often appeared in school when she was young, and many people knew her. But after she grew up, she rarely appeared in A city, and few people knew her now.
When the little devil went crazy, she could even blow up her ownpanys office building. She could even set up the entire schools students and teachers. She would use a virus for others. Qi Duoduo did not dare to take her family lightly.
If the Qi familyspany building was blown up by the little devil, her father and uncles would skin her alive!
After the battle on the first floor ended, Wu Shen went to Lou Zilings office with a bitter face and reported,President, the girl in the white dress hit miss Qi. Our ten security guards were also hit by her bodyguards. Miss Qi left in tears.
Lou Ziling raised her head and asked,Get the security guards to get medical treatment. Well take a day off first. Thepany will pay for the medical expenses.
Their injuries arent serious. Theyre just superficial wounds that have been treated.
Wu Shen wasnt worried about his own security guards. It was their job to be in charge of thepanys security. How could security guards not get hurt? if they acted coquettishly, they would be fired immediately.
Thepany needed people with real talent. They were too weak. Ten of them were defeated by two people in an instant. It was too embarrassing!
Wu Shen was worried about Qi Duoduo. If the Qi family came to find them, Lou Ziling would not be able to exin to them!
Recently, the Lou Corporation had been working with the Qi family, which was a well-known domestic brand of sportswear and sports shoes. The cooperation between the two strongpanies would greatly promote the business expansion of both sides.
Moreover, Wu Shen had been with Lou Ziling for a long time and knew many of his secrets.
One of them was that Lou Ziling had been waiting for Qi Duoduo toe to him.
In the past, Lou Ziling was the one who took the initiative to get to know the other girls. Only Qi Duoduo was deliberately avoided by Lou Ziling. That was why she tried every means to get a chance to get close to Lou Ziling from Luo Feiyang.
Qi Duoduo, Luo Feiyang, and even Ji moxuan were all part of Lou Zilings n!
Lou Ziling was quick-witted and intelligent. He had even studied psychology for this reason. Many peoples reactions and actions were within Lou Zilings expectations.
He unceremoniously used the people around him as chess pieces, as a springboard.
There was only one exception, and that was Jing Xi.
Jing Xi waspletely excluded from Lou Zilingsplicated rtionshipwork.
Until today, Wu Shen still did not understand why his boss did not develop such a huge mountain of gold. Instead, he had to go to the barrennd to look for gold bit by bit.
Taking down Jing Xi was the best shortcut for Lou Ziling to reach the top!
Thinking of Jing Xi, Wu Shen suddenly realized who the beautiful girl in the white dress who was standing in Lou Zilings office was.
Wu Shen had never seen Jing Xi before. He had only heard rumors about her from the outside world. Lou Ziling would tell him trade secrets without hiding anything. When he went out for dinner with other women, Wu Shen was in charge of booking the table. However, Lou Ziling had never said a word about Jing Xi.
The office was silent. After Wu Shen had guessed Jing Xis identity, he did not dare to speak.
Lou Ziling didnt say anything. He just felt a headache. That girl had always been arrogant. Qi Duoduo would definitely find out about Jing Xis identity soon. He didnt want others to know that he had an affair with Jing Xi.
It was better to be clear about the rtionship between them.
Lou Ziling thought for a moment and finally said,Pick a gift and send it to the Qi family personally. Just say that its for miss Qi to calm down.
Wu Shen had gotten used to giving gifts. Lou Ziling had given gifts to his ex-girlfriends before. Of course, Wu Shen picked them all. Lou Ziling didnt even look at them. She only asked him to buy expensive ones.
Yes, Wu Shen replied. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a small patch of red on Lou Zilings chest. He took a closer look and realized that it seemed to be Blood.
Wu Shen was filled with shock and confusion. He had to remind Lou Ziling,President, do you need to change your shirt?
Lou Ziling had a meeting with thepanys top management. She couldnt wear a bloodied shirt to the meeting.
Lou Ziling looked at her own shirt. After a while, she raised her head.Alright, he said.
Wu Shen quickly brought Lou Ziling a shirt that was ironed without any creases. He was Lou Zilings right-hand man. He would always prepare a white shirt and suit for Lou Ziling to ensure that his image was perfect.
In addition to the shirt, Wu Shen also brought some alcohol cotton balls and gauze. He quietly and gently ced them on Lou Zilings table.
If there was a need, Lou Ziling could be used. If he was wrong and Lou Ziling was not injured, it was okay. Lou Ziling could just throw her away.
After Wu Shen left, Lou Ziling took off the blood-stained shirt.
He was tall, slender, and looked very thin, but in fact, the outline of his muscles was very obvious when he took off his clothes.
His skin was very fair, but he looked very powerful.
Lou Ziling took a cotton ball and wiped the blood off her skin so that it wouldnt get on her new shirt.
The wound was no longer bleeding, but two rows of clear teeth marks were left.
Lou Ziling could imagine Jing Xis white and neat teeth just by looking at the bite marks. He could even feel the strength of her bite.
Her pearly white teeth were very beautiful, just like her, sharp and cute.
Lou Ziling didnt know what was going on, but her face felt a little hot and her white ears were a little red.

Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling closed her eyes and shook her head to get rid of those unnecessary thoughts. She threw away the cotton ball and put on her new shirt. She returned to her usual calm and cold self.
He threw the unused gauze and the remaining cotton balls into the trash can, put away the original shirt, and put it in the drawer.
After flipping through the documents for a while, Lou Ziling looked at the time. Then, she took the documents to the meeting room on the top floor and prepared to have a meeting with thepanys higher-ups.
Lou Mingyang would also attend todays meeting. He was now the Vice president of thepany and had been very busy with thepanys Affairs.
Lou Ziling felt lucky that Jing Xi hade early and had already left. Otherwise, if Lou Mingyang knew that she hade, he would definitely treat her like an ancestor.
As a son, he would definitely have no status at all. He would not need to hold the meeting anymore. Lou Mingyang would definitely let him y with Jing Xi.
In Lou Mingyangs eyes, Jing Xi was just a child, a little princess. He had to take care of her.
Lou Mingyang arrived as soon as Lou Ziling entered the meeting room.
There were a few other senior executives in the meeting room, all of them sitting and conversing in low voices, not too restrained.
Lou Mingyang was in his 50s, but he had a good mentality. The most worrying thing in his life was that his son was too quiet. Therefore, he looked very young. At first nce, he looked like he was in his 40s.
Moreover, he had always been working out, unlike other people who would put on weight once they reached middle age.
He was tall and thin, with an elegant temperament and a gentle smile, which made people have a good impression of him at first nce.
However, Lou Ziling, who was sitting in the main seat, did not look like him at all. From her appearance to her temperament to her character, she was simply the other extreme of Lou Mingyang.
Sometimes, Lou Mingyang even suspected that Lou Ziling was not his son, but an alien from another.
Once, Lou Mingyang had said his thoughts out loud. As a result, his wife, tan Zhen, was annoyed. The two of them slept in separate rooms for more than a month. Only when Lou Mingyang kept apologizing did tan Zhens anger dissipate.
However, Lou Ziling wasnt someone who didnt like to talk since he was young. On the contrary, he was very smart when he was young. He was curious about everything and could always say shocking things.
However, when he was seven years old, Lou Zirong took him to Lou mingzhens big vi to y for two days. He changedpletely. He suddenly didnt like to talk and closed himself up.
Until today, Lou Mingyang still didnt know what had happened that year.
He had always felt that even if his own brother was not apassionate person and was good at scheming, he would not make things difficult for his own nephew.
Lou Zirong was Lou Zilings cousin. Although he was very overbearing and aggressive when he was young, he would not hurt Lou Ziling.
After Lou Zilings personality changed, Lou Mingyang had specially visited Lou mingzhen and seriously asked him what had happened. However, Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirong had told him frankly that they had just yed with Lou Ziling and nothing had happened.
Lou Mingyang couldnt get an answer so he asked Lou Ziling carefully.
However, the seven-year-old Lou Ziling was so stubborn that she refused to say a word.
However, Lou Mingyang knew that something must have happened. Otherwise, Lou Ziling would not have changed so much.
Originally, Lou Ziling liked flowers, grass, and small animals.
But from then on, he threw away his fish, cats, and rabbits.
Lou Mingyang couldnt understand why these things made Lou Ziling so disgusted and disgusted.
It was only when Lou Ziling grew up that his hatred for animals lessened. He stopped destroying flowers and nts when he saw them.
Only his reticent and unsociable character was getting more and more serious.
Lou Ziling had always thought that Lou Mingyang had forced him to apany Jing Xi in order to win the favor of the Jing family and get more opportunities for cooperation.
However, he didnt know that Lou Mingyang had another reason for asking him to apany Jing Xi. He wanted to make sure that Jing Xi was the only one who could make Lou Ziling jump in anger. Every time he got to know Jing Xi, Lou Ziling would be a little more talkative at home.
This change was very obvious. Everyone in the family felt it. Only Lou Ziling was unaware.
It was rare for Lou Ziling to get angry. He was indifferent to many things and almost no one could anger him.
However, Jing Xi always made Lou Ziling very angry.
His son could get angry. He was not a rock. This was a good thing for Lou Mingyang!
Therefore, Lou Mingyang had been trying to encourage his son to be closer to Jing Xi.
In any case, it seemed that being close to Jing Xi was all good. There was no harm to pick out at all.
Lou Mingyang sighed in his heart,this little girl is not only lucky, she has been a Princess since she was young. She is also a Lucky Star!
Lou Mingyang, who was in deep thought, didnt know that just an hour ago, his good son had made little lucky Star cry and rudely drove him away.
In the entire A city, after knowing Jing Xis identity, his son was the only one who could still be so ruthless!
Lou Mingyang was still nning how to send his son to Jing Xi again.
The meeting soon began. Lou Mingyang put away his thoughts and focused on listening to his sons next development n. They were going to buy three more smallpanies in the near future to strengthen their own strength and break into the high-end sports equipment market.
Lou Mingyang had never dared to have this kind of ambition before. Lou Ziling had only taken over thepany for two years, but she had already opened up a new field and thepanys performance was soaring.
At first, the senior executives of thepany looked down on Lou Ziling. They were all rted to the Lou family and knew that Lou Ziling had been isted since he was young. They felt that he was a weirdo and did not cooperate with Lou Zilings work at first.
And now, no one dared to not cooperate.
Lou Ziling slowly eliminated those who were weak but still took advantage of their seniority.
Those who stayed and those who were newly recruited also clearly understood Lou Zilings strength. They were afraid of his sharpness and sharpness, so no one dared to stir up trouble.
Lou Mingyang cooperated with his son. One yed the good cop and the other yed the bad cop. Now, thepany was united and focused on making money with Lou Ziling.
The meeting ended in half an hour. Lou Ziling was a man of few words. Every word he said was important. The higher-ups of thepany had developed a habit of being concise with their words. They would never drag out their reports. Therefore, their work efficiency was surprisingly high.
After everyone else had left, Lou Mingyang patted his sons shoulder and praised,Ziling, it was the wisest move for me to hand thepany over to you in advance!
You dont have to be so tactful if you want to praise yourself.
Lou Ziling replied indifferently. Then, she walked out of the meeting room and went back to her office.
Lou Mingyang was a little confused. Why did his son answer his question today? In the past, he would not even reply half a word!
He suddenly became talkative. Could it be that He had met Jing Xi?

Lou Mingyang went to Lou Zilings office with doubts. It used to be his office. Since he passed the power of thepany to Lou Ziling, he gave the biggest and best office to her.
He was a President. He had to look like a President. Lou Ziling had a cold and powerful aura. The high-end office was the most suitable for him.
Lou Mingyang entered the office and looked around quietly. Then, he found the cotton ball with blood in the trash can.
Ziling, are you injured? he frowned.
Lou Ziling immediately became alert. Just as Lou Mingyang knew him, he also knew Lou Mingyang.
Lou Mingyang looked very gentle and seemed like a good man without any ulterior motives. But in fact, he was very meticulous and had sharp eyes. He could predict the cause and effect of any small clues.
At the moment, Lou Ziling could not exin to Lou Mingyang that Jing Xi had bitten him.
Lou Ziling carried on her usual cold and arrogant style. She turned on herputer indifferently and ignored Lou Mingyang.
Lou Mingyang asked a few more times, but Lou Ziling didnt respond no matter what he said as if she didnt hear him.
Ziling, I heard that Jing Xi has returned to China. Have you seen her?
Lou Zilings fingers on the keyboard paused for a moment, but then she continued to type calmly.
Lou Mingyang wasnt angry when his son didnt reply. It was normal for Lou Ziling to not reply. It was rare for her to reply to him like a joke.
You should put aside your messy girlfriend for now. Find some time to treat Jing Xi to a meal or coffee, or take her out to y.
Recently, the scenery at Dayun temple has been good. There are many people there to y. You can take her there too!
But when you go up the mountain, you have to be careful of Jing Xis safety at all times. Protect her well and be more alert. Dont be so cold all the time and act like a young master.
Lou Mingyang said a lot, but the central idea he conveyed was only one: He strongly requested Lou Ziling to serve Jing Xi well.
Lou Ziling was a man of few words, but he had a bad temper. He could ept Jing Xis constant chatter, but he didnt have the patience to listen to anyone elses nagging.
Dad, you should go to work. Have youe up with the acquisition n for kangjian sports?
Lou Mingyang red,your wings have hardened?! Now that your position is higher than mine, you still dare to suppress me? No matter how high your position is, Im still your father!
Lou Ziling rubbed her forehead and said helplessly,I didnt say youre not, but I dont have time to listen to your nonsense now.
What did I say that was a mess? Every sentence was useful! Put aside all your work first, find a good day and go hiking with Jing Xi! To be her bodyguard! If shes even a little unhappy, you dont have toe back. You can be a monk at Dayun temple!
Those who didnt know would probably think that Jing Xi was his daughter and Lou Ziling was just someone he had picked up.
Im the president of a Corporation. If word gets out that Im a bodyguard for a youngdy, what would it look like?
He had just driven Jing Xi away when Lou Ziling disagreed with him. How could he have the face to look for her again?
This will damage thepanys image, and people will think that Im using an underaged girl to climb up. Im not going!
Nonsense!
Lou Mingyang was not happy. He felt that his son was being perfunctory.You misunderstood you just because you were climbing a mountain with Jing Xi? Our Lou family is a subsidiary family of the Jing family and we have been relying on the Jing familys support to get to where we are today. Is it useful to avoid suspicion? Was there a need? No one else wants to be a subsidiary family, but family Jing doesnt ept them.
As the saying goes,one can enjoy the shade by leaning against a big tree. Lou family had always had the support of family Jing, which was why they could do business smoothly and no one dared to make things difficult for them. Although the scale had never beenrge, the annual ie was enough to make the world envious.
Without the Jing family, the Lou familys market would have been taken over by others.
Therefore, Lou Mingyang had never thought of avoiding suspicion. He wanted to cling to Jingsheng enterprise.
Besides, whats so embarrassing about being Jing Xis bodyguard? If the other senior executives of thepany knew that you were close to Jing Xi, they would only be more loyal to you! If the other employees in thepany knew about this, they would only think that youre capable!
Lou Zilings expression turned cold.Dad, I hope that the loyalty of my employees is based on my personal business skills, not to curry favor with others and use other peoples names to win peoples hearts!
This was the fundamental reason why Lou Ziling had always refused to get too close to Jing Xi.
The benefits of getting close to Jing Xi and winning her favor and support were obvious. Sess was at his fingertips!
However, Lou Zilings pride and dignity as a man did not allow him to do so.
He didnt want the Lou family to be the subordinate family of family Jing or someone else for the rest of his life.
Jingsheng enterprise had been providing support to family Lou all this time. Was it for nothing?
Of course not!
Jingsheng enterprise was not a charity organization!
Family Lou had done a lot for family Jing in the past year.
The Lou family had to support any decision made by the Jing family at once. They had to do whatever the Jing family could not do.
To put it bluntly, the Lou family was just cannon fodder.
If they did it well, the glory and interests would basically belong to family Jing. If they did not do it well and failed, it would be family Lou who would be destroyed.
Lou Ziling knew that it was impossible for the Lou family topletely leave the Jing family with their current strength.
His short-term goal wasnt to leave family Jing, but to strengthen his own power and be a second-rate family. At least, family Jing wouldnt attack family Lou when they were in danger.
His wings were not yet fully grown, and he still had to move forward in silence and loneliness in the darkness.
However, Lou Mingyang and Lou Ziling were from two different generations. Lou Mingyang had witnessed the glory of family Jing year after year. The long and powerful family Jing had left a deep impression in his heart. He, like many other middle-aged and elderly people in A city, had a fanatical worship and deep fear of family Jing.
Young people were always full of courage and didnt know how powerful family Jing was, nor did they know what fear was.
Im not asking you to work for Jing Xi, Lou Mingyang said.Im just ying with her and protecting her. Is it that hard?
I wont apany her anymore, Lou Ziling replied indifferently.I wont be her bodyguard.
You think its embarrassing?
Lou Mingyang shook his head.Its nothing. Luo Feiyang has alreadye to A city. He said that he would be Jing Xis driver for the rest of his life. Hes always on call!

Luo Feiyang is here?
His movements were quick!
Lou Ziling didnt know why, but she suddenly felt a little irritated.
What Luo Feiyang does has nothing to do with me, he said indifferently.I have my own standards. I wont be as shameless as him.
Lou Mingyangs heart ached from his sons anger.What do you mean by no lower limit? When Feiyang pursued girls, if he lowered his attitude, people would only praise him for being sensible! If hes too arrogant, that would be a joke!
Lou Mingyangs words made Lou Ziling feel depressed and bitter.
Thats right. No one would think that the Luo family was trying to suck up to the Jing family when Luo Feiyang was pursuing Jing Xi. They would only think that it was pure love between a young boy and a young girl.
Even though the Luo family was not as powerful as the Jing family, they did not need to rely on the Jing family to develop. Luo Feiyangs love was free. He did not need to marry anyone. As long as his future wife did note from a bad family, the Luo family would agree.
If it were any other man from a small family who pursued Jing Xi, he would be suspected of sucking up to the Jing family and living off a woman. It would be disdainful.
If Luo Feiyang went around announcing that he was Jing Xis driver, it would only win peoples favor. They would think that he was very sincere in pursuing Jing Xi.
And if Lou Ziling went around saying that he wanted to be Jing Xis bodyguard, the world would only think that he was useless.
No matter what Lou Mingyang said, Lou Ziling did not agree to take Jing Xi to climb the mountain.
He was immersed in his work and no longer cared about Lou Mingyang.
It was the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. The air in A city was fresh, the vegetation was lush, the coastline was long, and the scenery was beautiful. It was very suitable for a vacation.
Luo Feiyang had never thought that city A was that beautiful before. This time, perhaps because he was in a different mood, he actually thought that this ce was so beautiful that he couldnt help but linger.
Not only did city A have good scenery, but it also had a lot of delicious food.
Although Luo Feiyang was born into an aristocratic family and never got tired of food, eating all kinds of delicacies was his daily routine. However, he had never had any sense of nobility since he was young and loved to eat all kinds of snacks. Aftering to A city, he would definitely go to the food stalls to have a good meal.
Ji moxuan was the exact opposite of him. He was a noble young master through and through, and never ate any random food outside.
Ji moxuan sat opposite of Luo Feiyang and looked at him with disdain as he ate the spicy crayfish without any regard for his image.Second young master Luo, your family has so much money that you cant spend it all in a few lifetimes. Cant you go to a clean and high-end ce to eat?
Ji moxuan had always loved to be clean since he was young. However, the stic stool he was sitting on right now was neither yellow nor white. It was simply challenging his nerves every minute.
Luo Feiyang, on the other hand, was eating happily. He took a sip of beer and said excitedly,Pfft, you dont understand. This isnt about money! Its better to eat here, and this restaurant has the most authentic taste. This is the taste! Why are you sitting there like an idiot? eat!
Ji moxuans expression became even more disdainful.If I dont eat it, who knows if its clean or not!
Luo Feiyang took the te of crayfish in front of Ji moxuan and ced it in front of him. He said with a satisfied expression,Thats great, if you dont eat it, then its all mine!
Eat, eat, eat. Dont me me if you get diarrhea!
How is that possible? Ivee here to eat a few times, and Im fine! Other people did it cleanly, but you have so many problems! I wanted to drag Xixi here to eat, but she ignored me, so I had no choice but to drag you here. Otherwise, itll be too lonely to eat alone!
Ji moxuan found it a little funny and asked,youre treating Xixi to beer at a food stall? Dont you think its beneath you?
Whats wrong, cant I? She definitely loves to eat it. Shes not like you, as long as its good food, she loves to try it!
While Luo Feiyang was bickering with Ji moxuan, he did not dy his meal at all.
After a while, the boss brought him a te of spicy conch, and Luo Feiyang ate it even more enthusiastically.
When he was full, he wiped his hands with a single piece of wet tissue from the food stall, stood up, and walked out.Boss, the handsome guy sitting at my table, please pay for me! Ill be leaving first!
Ji moxuan almost vomited blood because of Luo Feiyangs anger. So he had called him over to chat with him and pay the bill!
He had fallen for it so easily and thought that Luo Feiyang would invite Jing Xi to have dinner with him.
The food stall owner stopped him and smiled as he took out the bill, asking him to pay.Young man, the total is 126 Yuan. Round it down, 120 yuan will do!
Ji moxuans face was ashen as he took out a hundred and twenty Yuan from his wallet. He ced it on the table and immediately chased after Luo Feiyang.
On the road, Luo Feiyang was wearing a pair of sunsses and sitting in Ji moxuans brand new Maserati sports car with an expression that was asking for a beating.Young master Ji, Ill lend you my car first. Ill return it to you when I buy a new one! Sayonara!
Luo Feiyang spoke a very non-standard Japanese sentence and stepped on the elerator. The sports car with excellent performance dashed out, not giving Ji moxuan any time to react.
Ji moxuan watched helplessly as his beloved car disappeared without a trace. He was so angry that he, who had always been well-educated, cursed,Shit!
It turned out that Luo Feiyang had stolen his car keys without him knowing!
The next time he met Luo Feiyang, Ji moxuan felt that he might not be able to control the violence in his body. He would beat him up until he looked like a pig.
Luo Feiyang was full and had a brand-new sports car. He was in such a good mood that he was about to fly. He hummed a song and drove to Jing Xi.
Unfortunately, he had been wandering around Jing Xis house for the entire afternoon, but he had not seen her.
In the evening, Luo Feiyang didnt want to go back to the Luo familys Vi in city A alone. He thought about it and immediately sent a message.Brother, have you and sister-inw gotten off the ne?
At around eighto clock in the evening, Lou Ziling was still working overtime in thepany. Suddenly, her phone rang.
He pressed the answer button, and Lou Mingyangs smiling voice came from the phone.Ziling, lets go home. We have a guest!
Half an hourter, Lou Ziling entered the house. Two faces that he didnt like appeared in his line of sight. Luo Feiyang!
Hey, brother Ziling, I finally get to see you! Its been a long time since west met in United States Ive missed you so much!
Luo Feiyangs tone was exaggerated and enthusiastic. Those who didnt know would think that he and Lou Ziling were best friends!
Lou Ziling ignored him and looked at Lou Mingyang,My sister is back too?
Im back!
Lou Mingyang was very happy that his daughter and future son-inw were back. He greeted Luo Feifei and Luo Feiyang with a red face. He refused to let his son talk to the two brothers anymore, lest his son ignored them and made the atmosphere awkward.
Luo Feiyang was so friendly just now, but Lou Ziling just gave him a cold face. How was that how a guest should be treated?
However, Luo Feiyang didnt seem to mind Lou Zilings cold face at all. He smiled brightly and chatted with Lou Mingyang.Uncle Lou, both my name and yours have the word yang in them. Haha, what a coincidence! They feel like brothers!
Lou Zilings face quickly turned cold. She looked sharply at Luo Feiyang. What did he mean? this little kid was taking advantage of him?

Luo feilies face was also a little dark. He smacked the back of his brothers head out of habit.If you dont know how to talk, then shut up!
Argh! It hurts so much. I was stupid to begin with, and now Im even stupider after being hit by you!
Luo Feiyang cried out in pain but Luo Feifei ignored him. He looked at Lou Mingyang apologetically and said,Dad, Feiyang has been spoiled since he was young. Hes so rude. Dont mind him!
Ever since they got engaged, Luo Feiyang and Lou ruofei had changed the way they addressed their parents. They called their parents dad and mom. They were very close.
Every time Lou Mingyang heard his son-inw Call him dad, he would be very happy. He always felt that he had a son.
The wedding was scheduled for November this year, and they would be a real family very soon.
Its nothing. Feiyang and I have the same character in our names. Its indeed fate. We look like a family!
Lou Mingyangughed heartily, not taking Luo Feiyangs words to heart at all.
Luo Feiyang was straightforward, active, and cheerful. He didnt seem to be a scheming person. Lou Mingyang liked him very much.
He had no choice. Who asked his own son to be so quiet all day and not like to say cold and arrogant words?
That was why he felt very happy to see someone who could speak well.
Look, Uncle Lou is not angry at all! Brother, you cant hit me so easily in the future. Im neen, not nine! Hmph!
Luo Feiyang touched his head. After a while, he forgot about the pain and started to talk to Lou Mingyang again.
After chatting for a while, he realized that Lou Mingyang was really a good person!
All the praises from everyone in the family added up didnt evene close to Lou Mingyangs praise!
He was naughty and mischievous since he was a child. At home, he was like a Chatterbox and had been beaten up many times. Every day, he was despised by his family for not being steady enough. However, in Lou Mingyangs eyes, he was full of good points!
My family! Uncle Lou, I shouldvee to your house earlier. My brother, uncle, and dad dont have as good a taste as you! I told them that I was a smart and good man, but none of them believed me. In the future, I will definitely make a name for myself and make them all regret it!
Luo feiluo poured cold water on him without any hesitation.Youre simple-minded and all brawn and no brains. Even if you have a career, itll be an underground force. Youre very promising in forming gangs and fighting!
Did you not fight before? Didnt you lead me astray when I fight?
Luo Feiyang was not convinced. He straightened his neck and started to argue with Luo feicui.
Lou Ziling had no interest in listening to their argument. When she saw Lou ruofeiing out of the bathroom, she nodded at her as a form of greeting and went back to her room.
Lou ruofei looked at his tall back and could only smile helplessly.
Her younger brother was as unsociable as ever. No matter how lively the scene was, he could not blend in and hated tomunicate with others.
However, at least he knew how to nod at her now. In the past, he didnt even nod in greeting, and he didnt care about anyone.
In his world, he had been alone for a long time.
Now Perhaps she was still alone!
Lou ruofei and Luo feicui had just returned today. Lou Mingyang and tan Zhen were very happy. With Luo Feiyang, who loved to talk, the Lou familys living room was very lively.
The five of them ate fruits and yed cards. Every time Luo Feiyang lost money, he would Cry Like A Ghost and howl like a Wolf. When he won, he wouldugh wildly. Lou Mingyang and tan Zhenughed so much that their stomachs hurt.
Luo feilue had been beating up his brother for so many years and finally realized one of his brothers strengths.
In the past, when he came, the house was not so lively, and the atmosphere was not so rxed.
At least this little brat was still of some use.
Lou Ziling, who was in her bedroom on the second floor, turned a deaf ear to the noise downstairs. She held herputer and continued to analyze the data.
Lou ruofei hade up to call him twice, asking him toe down and y cards with her, but he had rejected her indifferently.
Even if the five of them were to join forces, their intelligence would not be as high as Lou Ziling s. If he were to y cards, the probability of them winning was basically zero.
She had won too many times and won too easily. In Lou Zilings eyes, all kinds of entertainment games had be boring. She was not interested in them at all.
Inparison, it was more interesting to study stocks.
Lou Ziling had been paying attention to the stock market since she was very young. The profits she gained from the stock market were already very impressive.
He used the money to buy a few smallpanies and bought out some design patents, pushing the Lou group to new heights.
The card game downstairs continued until past midnight. Everyone agreed to continue tomorrow before they left.
Someone was knocking on Lou Zilings door. Before Lou Ziling could respond, the door was opened.
Luo Feiyang walked in with a swagger.Hey, you dont have to work so hard, do you? Everyones having fun, youre not giving us any face by not ying!
Get out! Lou Ziling said coldly.
Dont be so stingy. Im just here to take a look at your room! Didnt you go to my Manor and vi before?
Luo Feiyang looked around and fixed his eyes on Lou Zilingsputer.Youre still specting in the stock market? Theres someone behind this, so stop ying with it, or youll definitely lose everything!
Lou Ziling couldnt stand other peoples nagging and didnt like other people entering her room. However, Luo Feiyang didnt have any sense of respect for other peoples privacy. He was a Chatterbox that could make people break down!
Get out! Dont make me say it a third time!
Aiya, Im advising you with good intentions, why cant you see my good intentions? Im only reminding you out of kindness for Uncle Lous sake. Uncle Lou is such a good man, how could he have a son like you!
Luo Feiyang didnt seem to feel Lou Zilings anger as he kept talking.
Auntie tan is also not bad. Shes a very good person and loves me more than my mother. My mother always dislikes me for talking too much and doesnt let me stay at home! Lou Ziling, why dont I just stay at your house? I think your parents like me a lot!
AI, I dont want to criticize you, but youre not qualified to be a son! I heard that you didnt even speak more than ten sentences a month in the past? Do you have a seriousnguage barrier or something? if you can t, you should go to the hospital!
Lou Ziling felt that it was a mistake for him to go home tonight.
Was Luo Feiyang an upgraded version of Tang Sanzang?
How could one person talk so much? He must have been a mute in his past life, thats why he cant stop nagging in this life, making up for all the words he didnt say in his past life!
Lou Ziling stood up, grabbed Luo Feiyangs cor, and threw him out of her room.
Lou Ziling felt that he might want to kill Luo Feiyang if he stayed any longer.

Chapter 1485: This is my newly developed racket
Trantor: 549690339
After being thrown out of the room by Lou Ziling so easily, Luo Feiyang climbed up from the floor with all his might. He felt extremely humiliated!
He had always been good at fighting. Other than his cousin, he had almost no opponents!
But he had actually failed repeatedly in what he was best at!
Luo Feiyang clenched his fists and started banging on Lou Zilings door.Lou Ziling, open the door! I want to fight you! If youre a man,e out and fight me fair and square!
In the room, Lou Zilingpletely ignored him. She turned off herputer and prepared to go to bed.
Lou Ziling, I am not afraid of you! I was caught by you because I wasnt prepared. It doesnt count. Again!
Do you think you can get Xixi just because youre good at fighting? Im telling you, shes mine! Im more powerful than you, I can protect her, so stay away from her in the future!
There was still no movement in the room. Lou Ziling did note out as Luo Feiyang had expected.
Luo Feiyang ruffled his hair in anger.
Every time he faced Lou Ziling, he felt as if he had punched cotton.
Every time he tried to goad Ji moxuan into action, it was very effective. It was even effective against Luo feilie. Why did it not work on Lou Ziling?
Luo Feiyang stood in front of Lou Zilings door. He couldnt figure it out no matter how hard he racked his brain. In the end, he could onlye to an uncertain conclusion. Maybe Lou Ziling didnt like Jing Xi at all?
Otherwise, she would definitelye out and fight him to the death!
Lou Ziling didnte out to fight him, but Luo Fei came to kill him.
Luo Fei rushed up and pped him,why arent you sleeping in the middle of the night? why are you wailing in front of someones room? Hurry up and go back to sleep!
Luo Feiyang cried out in pain. His back was burning with pain. He gritted his teeth and said,Brother, youve mastered the iron Palm? My spine was broken by you!
He deserves it!
Luo Feiyang grabbed Luo Feiyangs ear and dragged him away.Dont think that you can do whatever you want just because no one is here. If I see you provoking Lou Ziling again, I wont give you a single cent of your pocket money this month! You can go and drink the Northwest wind!
Luo Feiyangs ear hurt so much that he was about to cry, but he couldnt care about his ear now. If he didnt have any pocket money, he would be a beggar!
He had already spent all his money this month, and he was counting on next month!
Today, she even extorted Ji moxuan for a meal and a car. She couldnt go and extort Ji moxuan every day, right?
Ji moxuan was very smart, he definitely wouldnt fall for it next time!
Luo feilie, you must be kind! That money is my dad S. He just left it with you. What right do you have to deduct my pocket money? Profiteers! Shameless!
When Luo Feiyang heard that his brother dared to call him by his full name, he dragged Luo Feiyang into the room. After he closed the door, he started to beat him up.
Lou Ziling felt much better when she heard that the world was finally quiet.
It seemed like Luo Feifei was not without his merits. At least, his methods were very effective in punishing Luo Feiyang, that second-generation heir.
Fortunately, Luo Feiyang had such a cousin. Otherwise, he would have been so arrogant.
Lou Ziling went to the bathroom, took a shower, and changed her clothes. When shey on the bed, she subconsciously touched the teeth mark on her chest.
The bedsidemp emitted a faint yellow light and shone on Lou Zilings chest. The teeth marks that had turned from red to purple were clearly visible.
Lou Ziling watched quietly for a while. Then, she pulled up her clothes andy on the bed. She fell asleep after a long time.
Early the next morning, Lou Ziling was woken up by Luo Feiyang, who was unusually active and excited.
Lou Ziling, wake up!
Lou Ziling, are you a pig? why did you sleep for so long?
Hahaha, Xixi definitely wont like you. She likes hardworking people like me!
Lou Ziling looked at the rm clock on the bedside. The time on it was 5:20 in the morning!
This lunatic!
Didnt Luo Feiyang sleep verytest night? Why did he have the energy to start tossing and turning so early in the morning? Crazy!
Lou Ziling couldnt sleep any longer because of the noise outside.
He got out of bed with a cold face and made up his mind not toe home tonight!
Lou Ziling was in so much pain that he didnt know that Luo Feiyang was an exception. He was born with little sleep. He only needed to sleep three to four hours a day.
When he was in the United States, he went to Jing Xi every morning to wake her up, and Jing Xi was tormented.
Now, he was no longer hurting Jing Xi, but Lou Ziling.
One of Luo Feiyangs bad habits was to wake up everyone who was sleeping in. Not only did he wake Lou Ziling, but he also woke up Lou Mingyang and his wife, Luo feicui and Lou ruofei, and even the servants of the Lou family.
Everyone was woken up by him and could only get up helplessly. Luo Feiyang was only wearing his pants. He did not even wear his shirt or shoes. He picked up a badminton racket and chased Luo Feiyang around the vi.
Come over here! Luo Feiyang, if you keep running, Ill beat you to death! You woke everyone up so early in the morning. Looks like you dont even remember the beatings youve suffered before. Let me help you recall!
Luo Feiyang was afraid that the racket would hit him, so he ran for his life in the vi. As he ran, he didnt forget to shout,Murder! Help me! The elder brother is going to kill his younger brother for some pocket money!
Unfortunately, Luo Feifeis nickname was Scumble. He ran faster than anyone else. No matter how Luo Feiyang ran, he could catch up to him. In a short while, Luo Feiyangs face was bruised and swollen.
Lou Mingyangs family was so scared that they quickly went to stop him, afraid that they would hurt him.
Lou ruofei even hugged Luo Feifeis arm and urged him anxiously,Fei Fei, stop fighting. Fei Feis nose is bleeding! Its a small matter, our family always wakes up very early!
Luo feilie only stopped after his fiance came out to persuade him. If he wasnt afraid of scaring Lou ruofei, he would have hit her even harder.
Luo Feiyang also felt that he had gone easy on her this time. He wiped the blood from his nose nonchntly and grinned.Sister-inw, you are so good to me! However, your familys feathered racket is too sturdy!
It didnt break after hitting him so many times!
Lou Ziling, who didnt like to talk, suddenly said,This is mytest invention. Its light and durable. Luo Feifei, I can give you a few more!
Luo feicui was slightly stunned, then heughed.Good! Give me a dozen!
Luo Feiyang cried,not good! You guys are too much! The racket is used to y basketball, not to hit my head!
Everyone was amused by his miserable and pitiful look. The atmosphere suddenly rxed. Lou ruofei was busy treating Luo Feiyangs wound, while tan Zhen smiled and went to prepare breakfast with the servants.
Lou Mingyang pulled Luo feichui to the living room andughed. He reminded him not to hit his brother in the future.
Lou Ziling was the only one who changed into a suit after washing up. She drove to thepany without eating breakfast.

Chapter 1486: Not cut out for managing apany
Trantor: 549690339
When they were having breakfast, Luo Feiyang realized that Lou Ziling was not around. He asked tan Zhen and found out that Lou Ziling had gone to work.
Luo Feiyang raised his eyebrows and suddenly felt a deep sense of danger.
Wasnt this too hard working?
Luo Feiyang ate the fresh and tender red oil bamboo shoots and muttered softly,Freak, youll die of exhaustion!
No one else heard him, but Luo feichui, who was sitting beside him, heard him. His face was calm and indifferent, but his foot under the table stepped on Luo Feiyang.
Luo Feiyangs forehead was covered in sweat from the pain, but when he turned his head and met his big brothers warning gaze, he held it in and didnt dare to cry out in pain.
What sin had hemitted in his past life? why did the heavens give him such a brother?
He simply had nothing to live for!
After breakfast, Luo Feiyang wanted to drive to Jing Xi, but when he looked outside, his sports car was gone!
Wheres My Car?
Luo Fei jumped behind him and gave him a punch.What an embarrassment, are we short of cars? Ill break your hand if you dare to snatch mo Xuans things again!
Luo Feiyang rubbed his shoulder that was hurting from the p. He understood what was going on after thinking about it for a while. He was so angry that he stomped his feet.Ji mo Xuan, this shameless person, he actually dared to tell on me behind my back! Im just borrowing his car for a few days, right? Youre so stingy!
As he spoke, he was about to take a taxi to the Ji family to settle the score with Ji moxuan when Luo feicui grabbed his clothes.Youre not going anywhere today! Youre already 19, but youre still so ignorant. Come with me to deal with the Luo familys business in A city. If you dont learn well, youre not allowed to eat or sleep!
Im not going, Im not going! Im not cut out to manage apany, cant I just have you?
Luo Feiyang was shocked and shook his head like a rattle.
When he heard that he had to manage some messy business, he felt like his brain was going to explode!
Do you want me to be busy to death?
Luo Feifeis expression was very ugly. He was exhausted from managing thepany all day long. He didnt even have time to apany Lou ruofei. Luo Feiyang, on the other hand, spent his days drinking and having fun.
Youll follow me to identify the people today. Ill return to the United States in a week, and Ill leave the branch here to you!
A week?!
Luo Feiyangs eyes were about to pop out. He cried out,This is impossible!
Not to mention a week, even a year would be enough!
That Brother, dont you know that Im a piece of trash? If you hand thepany over to me, Wont You Be losing everything? Im only neen, let me y with you for two more years No, no, no, let me grow up for two more years!
Luo feilie said unhappily,all you know is to y! Second uncle and second aunt are so angry at you that they dont want to acknowledge you as their son anymore. Cant you be a little more promising? There was no room for discussion. Just one week! Its none of my business even if youpensate me, you can just beg for food in the future!
Luo Feiyang was dragged away by his brother. Since eight in the morning, he had been running around, meeting all kinds of people, talking about all kinds of projects that he didnt understand, and saying all kinds of professional vocabry that he didnt understand.
Moreover, he had no idea when his cousin had learned so many foreignnguages!
Wasnt Luo feicui a cker in his studies? Didnt you skip ss and fight all day? Havent you always been a womanizer?
It was fine if he became a good man, but when did he be a top student?
This was too uninteresting. His impression of his brother was still that of a scumbag in the past. His current image as an elite in the business world hadpletely overturned Luo Feiyangs understanding!
At around 11 pm, Luo Feiyang followed Luo Fei back to the Lou familys house, exhausted.
She hade back sote and had been busy the whole day, so the card game program that they had agreed onst night was naturally canceled.
Lou Mingyang and his wife had already fallen asleep. Lou ruofei had personally made supper for the brothers.
Luo Feiyangs stomach was rumbling with hunger. He gobbled down the food and quickly snatched it from his brother.
Lou ruofei sat at the side and smiled gently as she watched the two of them eat. She treated Luo Feiyang like her own little brother and poured him a ss of water. She smiled and said,Eat slowly, Ill make more for you if its not enough.
Luo Feiyang was so touched that he almost threw himself into Lou ruofeis arms and cried.Sister-inw, youre such a good person. My brother married you because Ive done him a lot of good!
Luo Feiyangs vinegar jar was knocked over as he pped Luo Feiyang on the back.Get lost, what does my wife have to do with you? dont think too highly of yourself! Its more like youvemitted a sin!
Luo feicui was a very possessive person. He felt that Lou ruofei belonged to him alone. Sometimes, he would re back at Lou ruofei even if someone looked at her for an extra second.
Originally, he was very satisfied when Lou ruofei made food for him alone. He didnt expect that Luo Feiyang would snatch it from him today. So, he was even jealous of his brother.
Even Lou Ziling, his own brother, was not close to Lou ruofei. However, Luo Feiyang was very close to Lou ruofei. Because of this, Luo Feiyang had been beaten up a lot.
After they were done with their supper, Luo feilie held his fiances hand and led her to the bedroom.
Luo Feiyang sat on the sofa in the living room and watched the two of them walk up the stairs hand in hand. He suddenly felt that his brother was very happy now.
In the past, he wasnt optimistic about Lou ruofei.
It was because Lou ruofeis appearance wasnt considered stunning. However, her gentle and refined temperament was very rare. At first nce, one could tell that she was a well-educateddy from a big family.
Luo Feiyang had always thought that his brother would not like a woman like her.
In the past, Luo feilies girlfriends were all alluring women with heavy makeup.
Although Lou ruofeis figure wasnt bad, her style of dressing was extremely conservative. She never wore anything that exposed her chest or a miniskirt. From her appearance, she didnt have any advantage at all.
However, after spending more time with Lou ruofei, Luo Feiyang slowly felt that Lou ruofei was really a good woman, which was rare in the world.
She was graceful, gentle, virtuous, and considerate. She would never be ambiguous with any man. Only when she was with Luo feicui would she be shy and yful like a little girl.
At first, Luo Feiyang felt that the Lou family was climbing too high up the socialdder for this marriage. Lou ruofeis appearance and family background were not good enough for her brother.
But now, he felt more and more that his brothers marriage to Lou ruofei would be the best choice he had ever made in his life.
Only a woman like Lou ruofei could make a yboy like Luo feicui change his mind.
Luo Feiyang had once seen with his own eyes that the young master of the Luo family, who had always been as noble as an Emperor, was sitting on the sofa holding Lou ruofeis feet and giving her a foot massage with essential oil. The reason was that Lou ruofeis feet hurt a little after wearing high heels for a few hours.
Luo Feiyang evenughed at him, saying that he doted on his wife so much that he had lost his manliness.
But after the joke, he now felt that if his girlfriend was Jing Xi, maybe he would be like his brother, who didnt care about his face. He would massage her feet and do everything he could for her.

Thinking of Jing Xi, Luo Feiyang couldnt help but smile. If he could live with her in the future, his life would never be boring!
With a smile on his face, he went upstairs and went straight to Lou Zilings room. He wanted to warn Lou Ziling not to fight with him for Jing Xi in the future.
However, Lou Zilings room was dark and there was no sign of Lou Ziling.
No way! Luo Feiyang was stunned.Are you still working overtime at the office?
Lou Ziling didnt know that Luo Feiyang had barged into his room again. He wasnt working overtime, and he had no intention of going home. He couldnt stand Luo Feiyangs noisy personality.
He was in his own small vi, quiet and lonely, without any noise, and he felt veryfortable.
Lou Ziling had taken a shower. She was only wearing a pair of loose shorts, which revealed her strong upper body and long, straight legs.
He had inherited his parents good qualities, and his fair skin often made girls jealous.
The soft light shone on his body, giving him a Jade-like luster.
Lou Zilingy on the bed and looked down at the teeth mark on her chest.
The area where Jing Xi had bitten had already healed, but the blue and purple were still very obvious. It was obvious that she had bitten very hard.
Lou Zilings lips curved into a faint smile when she thought of her angry face.
He turned off the light, felt his slightly abnormal heartbeat, and slowly fell asleep.
Ever since that day, Lou Ziling had contracted a disease.
It was a kind of illness where she couldnt sleep without looking at the teeth marks on her chest.
It was a disease that caused ones heart to beat abnormally when they looked at the teeth marks on their chest.
These seemed to be Two kinds of diseases?
Lou Ziling was not sure.
The next morning, Luo Feiyang got up and went to Lou Zilings room to have a look.
There was still no one in the room. Luo Feiyang realized that Lou Ziling had spent the night outside and had not returned home.
He didnt return home and spent the night outside. Did he have a woman?
Luo Feiyang was deep in thought as he leaned against the door.
Based on his observation over the past year, Lou Ziling seemed to have no interest in women. He had always suspected that Lou Ziling liked men and that she had a girlfriend just to cover up her true feelings.
The more Luo Feiyang thought about it, the more excited he became. He felt that Lou Ziling was basically out of the list ofpetitors.
He didnt dare to wake up the entire vi this morning and sneaked out quietly.
However, as soon as he walked out of the vi, he was caught by Luo feichui who rushed over.
You want to run? If you keep running, Ill break your legs!
Brother, youre so violent. Be careful, sister-inw wont like you!
You dont have to worry about that. Im very gentle to your sister-inw! Hurry up and go back and change into your formal clothes. You still have to follow me to thepany today!
Im not going! I dont understand anything, I dont know anything! Youre abusing your own brother!
Hes only a cousin!
Ill only teach you for a week. A weekter, when I return to North America, Lou Ziling will be the one teaching you. If you have anything you dont understand, you can ask him, Luo feilie corrected him coldly.
What?
Luo Feiyang jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. Every cell in his body was protesting with all his might.I wont do it!
If he let his love rival be his teacher, would he still have a way out in the future?
In this way, he was obviously lower than Lou Ziling. How could he raise his head in front of Jing Xi in the future?
Lou Ziling is only four years older than me. Why should she teach me? It was more like misleading the disciples! Im not convinced!
Luo feiluo pped his brothers back angrily.I dont know if Lou Ziling is willing to teach a stupid second generation like you, but youre already disdaining her! Yes, hes only four years older than you, but hes already able to manage such arge group. The profits are doubling every quarter, and even I might not be able to do it. Youd better learn well and not bezy!
In fact, during the marriage alliance, Luo feilie did not think much of the Lou familys wealth.
The Lou familyspany was showing signs of decline. If it had not been for the Jing familys support, the Lou familyspany would have been swallowed up by others.
He only took a fancy to Lou ruofei and didnt care about her family background.
However, the weight of the Lou family in Luo feicuis heart had obviously increased. Even his father and uncle felt that the rise of the Lou family was only a matter of time.
Lou Ziling showed his amazing business talent. He might not have known it, but he attracted a lot of attention.
Bringing the dead back to life had never been an easy task.
He was sharp, quick-witted, and bold. He had eliminated the shorings of the Lou familys small family business model one by one.
In the family business, there were many rtives and friends. Lou mingzhen didnt dare to fire these people.
This was because a single mistake could lead toints from thepanys employees. In the end, not only would they not be able to keep the people who worked hard, but they might also bebeled as ungrateful.
Lou Mingyang had a gentle temperament and would not do such a thing.
Lou Ziling was the only one who had no concept of family or friendship. He did not care how many people scolded him. He was like a cold and ruthless robot.
He had made drastic changes to thepanys system and fired employees. He had been criticized for his ambition before, but now, two yearster, no one dared to criticize him.
When Luo feiluo first took over the family business, his father, Luo gang, had taught him,If you want to do great things, you have to be ruthless. When you are cold and unreasonable, that is when others respect you the most.
Only an unreasonable leader would not put thepany in danger for his own benefit.
Only a cold leader would be rational, unaffected by the rumors of the outside world, and unaffected by the thoughts of those close to him.
Lou Zilings sess was not by chance.
With his personality, mind, and ability, as long as he wanted to run a goodpany, he would definitely seed.
Such a master was hard toe by. The Luo family had always wanted to send Luo Feiyang to Lou Ziling to learn from him, but they never had the chance.
Now that Luo Feiyang had moved into the Lou familys house, Luo feilie was afraid that if he missed this opportunity, it would be even more difficult to find a suitable reason in the future.
Moreover, if he went to talk to Lou Ziling about this matter, Lou Ziling would definitely not take over.
Lou ruofei had to step in for this matter.
Luo feilue subconsciously thought that he had to treat Lou ruofei better in the future. Her brother was a genius!
Lou Ziling didnt know that his efforts were starting to bear fruit. His goal of providing protection for his sister and bing someone she could rely on was slowly being realized.
The Lou family had also received the attention of experts one after another because of his outstanding talent and unparalleled ability.
However, Lou Ziling had not felt the joy of sess yet. When he arrived at thepany in the morning, he received a hot potato and asked Luo Feiyang to be his disciple.
Chapter 1488
Chapter 1488: Chapter 1488 Jing Che
Trantor: 549690339
Even though Luo Feiyang was wearing a suit, it could not hide his frivolous temperament.
He sat on the sofa in Lou Zilings office with his legs crossed. He said unwillingly,Ill say this first. I didnt beg to be your disciple. It was Luo feilie, that man who was bewitched by his wife, who forced me toe! In the future, no matter what I do, you cant control me!
Lou Ziling didnt expect Luo Feiyang to appear in his office. He also didnt expect Lou ruofei to call him and tell him to take this disciple.
Even Lou Mingyang had sent him a message, asking him to take good care of Luo Feiyang.
Lou Ziling and Luo Feiyang didnt like each other. The current situation was a problem of the century!
Lou ruofei would be officially married into the Luo family soon. The Luo family had been taking care of the Lou family in the business world. Even if Lou Ziling wanted the Lou family to develop better in the future, she couldnt just send Luo Feiyang away.
However, it was impossible for him to teach Luo Feiyang seriously.
Lou Ziling didnt have the time to y with a naughty child.
Yes, in his eyes, Luo Feiyang was full of childishness. The neen-year-old Luo Feiyang was as mischievous as a nine-year-old child and did not do his proper job.
Lou Ziling ignored Luo Feiyangs provocation. She ignored him for the time being and focused on her work.
Luo Feiyang didnt like to stay at Lou Zilings ce either. He snorted and swaggered away.
He did not want to be Lou Zilings disciple. Luo feimeng had not left yet. He still had a weeks time to mess this up!
Lou Mingyang entered Lou Zilings office as soon as Luo Feiyang left.
Wheres Feiyang?
Lets go,
Youre leaving so quickly?
Lou Mingyang felt that his sons face must have been too cold and made her run away.
Lou Zilings awkward silence was so good that even his family couldnt stand it.
Ziling, you should be more polite to Feiyang. Well be a family in the future. You have to think about your sister, not for anything else.
Lou Ziling raised her eyebrows. Wasnt he polite enough to Luo Feiyang? If he really didnt hold back, he could beat Luo Feiyang up and send him to the hospital!
Also, Feiyang really put in a lot of effort to pursue Jing Xi. He asked me a lot about Jing Xi. Its not impossible for him to marry the little princess of family Jing. If Luo Feiyang really did marry her, then you should be on good terms with Luo Feiyang!
Luo Feiyang married Jing Xi?
Lou Ziling felt a little ufortable.
Theres no need for that!He said in a cold and impatient tone.
Why not? I asked you to stay with Jing Xi, but you didn T. I asked you to be closer to Luo Feiyang, but you didnt want to. These are all easy things to do, and they will be good for you in the future. You cant be too conceited!
Every time they talked about Jing Xi, Lou Ziling would show resistance, and the conversation would not go smoothly. Even Lou Mingyang was a little impatient.
How about this, Ill invite Jing Xi for you. You can go hiking with her, visit the temple, and buy her more things that little girls like! Its settled then!
Im not free!
Lou Ziling refused immediately.
Unfortunately, his refusal was useless. Lou Mingyang didnt seem to hear it. He went straight back to his office and tried to ask the little girl out for his son.
Jing Xi had no idea that she had such a powerful ally. She had been angry for the past two days and was ready to give Lou Ziling the cold shoulder for a while.
Jing Rui came back with his wife and son after his vacation.
Jing Xi couldnt wait.| The door opened.
When Jing Rui went to the enterprise, only Shu Yin and a fair little boy were at home.
Sister-inw, Im here!
Shuyin smiled and waved at her.Come here quickly. Xixi has be more beautiful Again!
As soon as she finished speaking, the little boy next to her said in a tender voice,Come here, Xixi has be more beautiful!
Jing Xi burst intoughter. She walked up to the little boy and picked him up.Little Yiche, you cant call me Xixi. You have to call me aunt!
Jing Che was more than two years old this year. He was smart and quick-witted, but his personality was different from Shuyin S. He loved to talk and he loved to learn how to speak.
His nickname was the cricket repeater.
So, as soon as Jing Xi finished, he began to repeat,You have to call me aunt!
Jing Xi thought he was very fun to y with. She held him in her arms and spun him around.Aunt!
Aunt!
Whoa, youre right this time! My little che is so smart!
However, Jing Che didnt read it this time,Aunt, its not that Im smart, but youre too stupid!
Jing Xi was overjoyed to be called stupid by the little guy.
She loved children so much that she could y with them all day long!
She just didnt know when her second brother and sister-inw would give birth to a child so that she could have one on her left and one on her right. She could y with the two handsome boys for a few days.
In the next few days, Jing Xi went to Jing Ruis house almost every day. Sometimes she went with Shangguan ning, and sometimes she went to y alone.
Shuyin was even at ease to leave her son in Jing Xis care and let her take Jing Che out to y.
In fact, Jing Xi had no experience in taking care of a child, and she was not attentive enough to take care of Jing Che. She was only 16 years old herself.
Fortunately, Jing Che was a child who didnt need to worry about anything. He didnt cry or make a fuss. He basically walked on his own and didnt need Jing Xi to carry him.
In the evening, the sea breeze was gentle in A city, and the sun was setting in the West. The heat wave had subsided, and the temperature was pleasant. Jing Xi took her nephew out to y.
Jing Che was still young and was curious about everything.
Jing Xi took his little hand and began to teach the little guy all kinds of knowledge.
She was very happy and felt that it was fortunate that her father had hired enough and outstanding teachers for her. Otherwise, she wouldnt have known so much.
Her little nephew was the future heir of family Jing and she couldnt afford to make a mistake.
The streets of A city were very clean. Trees and flowers were nted on both sides of the road. Jing Xi ruthlessly destroyed the flowers and picked a pink rose, putting it on Jing Ches ear.
Jing Che took the flowers down and said unhappily,Daddy said that boys cant wear flowers!
Then put it on for me! Jing Xi smiled brightly.
As she spoke, she squatted down in front of Jing Che and asked him to help her put on the flower.
Jing Che casually put it in her hair. He didnt care if it looked good or not, and said in a childish voice,Beautiful!
Jing Xi couldnt see how she looked, but she thought she looked good when she heard her nephew praise her. She smiled proudly.Of course, your aunt is the most beautiful!
Jing Che suddenly tugged at Jing Xis clothes and pointed in a direction.Auntie, theres an even more beautiful one over there!
Jing Xi followed his hand and saw two people standing on the beach.
The man was handsome, and the woman Was pretty, but Jing Xi would never admit that she was beautiful!
She felt that the prettier Jing Che mentioned must be referring to the man, Lou Ziling.

Chapter 1489: Light bulb

The two of them were standing very close to each other. Jing Xi knew both of them. Other than Lou Ziling, the woman was Qi Duoduo, who she had taught a lesson to.
Jing Xis anger rose to the top of her head.
She snorted coldly and pulled Jing Ches hand as they walked in their direction.
Jing Yuan was a little mischievous, so she whispered,Auntie, you look like an angry lion. Ive seen you in the zoo before!
Yes, Ill let you see what a Tiger with its fur standing on end looks liketer!
Lou Ziling and Qi Duoduo saw Jing Xi almost at the same time, but their reactions werepletely opposite.
Lou Ziling was cold and calm, as if she didnt know Jing Xi at all. However, Qi Duoduo, who had only met her twice, seemed to have known Jing Xi for two years. She said in a warm and friendly tone,
Oh, Xixi, youre so beautiful! No wonder Ziling doesnt like me. Shes always liked you. Im convinced of my loss!
Lou Ziling was stunned. He had only said two words to Qi Duoduo when he was standing there just now.Hello, miss Qi! Im very sorry for that day!
Where did she get that from?
Jing Xi was even more shocked than Lou Ziling. No one knew Lou Ziling better than she did. He would never say that he liked her.
Moreover, didnt Qi Duoduo like Lou Ziling to death?
Howe youve be so tactful after not seeing you for a few days?
She had originally wanted to show her little nephew the lions roar and the Tigers might, but this was not going to be easy!
Qi Duoduos mouth was warm and her face was affectionate, but in her heart, she was cursing Jing Xi. Just because Jing Xis surname was Jing, she had to give up the man she liked to her!
The smile on her face almost couldnt be maintained, and she left quickly without saying goodbye.
As soon as Qi Duoduo left, Lou Ziling also wanted to leave.
Stop! Jing Xi immediately stopped him.Why didnt you talk to me when you were talking to Qi Duoduo? Lou Ziling, this is not fair!
The little recorder beside her repeated,Lou Ziling, this is not fair!
A serious tone came out of the mouth of a cute little baby, which was especially funny when coupled with his childish voice.
Lou Ziling looked at the little girl and immediately realized that she was Jing Xis nephew, Jing Ruis son.
In the entire A city, only a few people had seen Jing Che.
Family Jings protection of him was top secret and wless.
At this moment, there must be a master protecting Jing Xi and Jing Che.
Jing Xi saw Lou Ziling staring at Jing Che and asked,You like children? It doesnt look like it!
Jing Che imitated his aunt and tilted his head,It doesnt look like it!
Jing Che looked like he was carved from Jade. His big eyes were very simr to Jing Xi s. The two of them looked a little like dolls.
Two simr faces, one big and one small, stood in front of Lou Ziling. They said the same words and made the same expressions. Even Lou Zilings heart, which was made of stone, softened.
He slowly knelt down in front of Jing Che and smiled,Whats your name?
Jing Che blinked his eyes and gave her aunts name.Xixi!
She was so young, but she was already so smart.
Lou Ziling was amazed by family Jings strong genes. He suddenly felt that he could choose a wife who was ugly, but she must be smart.
However, the girl he had heard and seen so far was still in family Jing, and she was standing right in front of him.
Lou Ziling stood up again. He nced at Jing Xi and saw a rose on her head. He took it down for her, then turned around and strode away from the beach.
Jing Xi touched the top of her head and watched him leave. She was still confused. Did Lou Ziling really like children?
She picked Jing Che up and looked around, mumbling,My nephew is indeed very cute. But can Lou Ziling be attracted by his cuteness?
Jing Che spoke in a childs voice,Aunt, he likes you!
Jing Xi was so happy that her eyes curved into crescents.You even know about this?
The flower I put on you was so ugly, so he took it off for you!
Jing Xi chuckled and kissed Jing Che on the cheek.Youre indeed my nephew!
The next day, Jing Xi took Jing Che to Lou Zilingspany.
This time, she revealed her identity. She had Jing Che in her arms and arge group of bodyguards behind her. She looked very imposing.
Lou Mingyang personally dragged Lou Ziling down to pick her up and warmly invited Jing Xi up.
The female receptionist at the front desk finally understood Jing Xis identity today. She was so shocked that she could note back to her senses for a long time.
Lou Mingyang took Jing Xi to Lou Zilings office and asked his assistant to bring him some juice. He smiled and talked to Jing Xi, but he was looking at Jing Che in her arms.
Lou Mingyang was quite familiar with Jing Yichen and had met Jing Rui many times, but he had never seen Jing Che.
It was only when he heard Jing Che call Jing Xi aunt that he was sure of Jing Ches identity.
Lou Mingyang looked at the two of them and then at his cold son. He suddenly felt that Lou Ziling was really shameless!
The most beloved daughter of family Jing and the heir of family Jing were all here.
Lou Mingyang hesitated for a while and finally left. He was old and there was a generation gap between him and children.
Since Jing Xi was here for Lou Ziling, it was better to let Lou Ziling handle it himself. If Lou Ziling couldnt handle it well, it wouldnt be toote for him toe out. It shouldnt be Toote, right?
With Lou Mingyang present, Jing Xi did feel a little ufortable.
Because Lou Mingyang was so polite, even with a kind of respect in his politeness and enthusiasm, Jing Xi, who had always been calm, was a little at a loss.
He was Lou Zilings father, and Jing Xi treated him as an elder. She should respect Lou Mingyang, not the other way around!
Jing Xi heaved a sigh of relief after Lou Mingyang left.
She pushed Jing Che into Lou Zilings arms and said,Hold me for a while, my hands are tired.
Lou Ziling subconsciously caught Jing Che in her arms. Her posture was a little awkward. She and Jing Che stared at each other, both of them a little confused by Jing Xis actions.
Jing Xi took a step back. Seeing Lou Ziling holding Jing Che, she suddenly smiled happily.Aiya, Lou Ziling, your cold temperament is suitable for carrying a child! You cant even see the coldness now!
Oh, Lou Ziling Is my aunt crazy? Jing Che mimicked her.
He had learned a few words at the beginning, but the words at the end were too long, so Jing Che had to change them.
Lou Ziling nodded.Yes. Youre so smart.
He held Jing Che and adjusted his position slightly to prevent Jing Che from falling. But what Jing Che said next almost made Lou Ziling throw him out.
Are you talking about me, the third wheel?
Chapter 1490
Chapter 1490: Everyone is here
Trantor: 549690339
The childs words were innocent and cute. Jing Xi was overjoyed. She stepped forward and held Jing Ches hand. Youre the worlds most likable little lightbulb!
Lou Ziling was not used to carrying a child. He wanted to return Jing Che to Jing Xi, but Jing Xi saw through his intention at a nce and said with a smile,This is the future king. Are you sure you dont want to hug him for a while longer? When he grows up, you wont have the chance to hug him anymore!
Lou Zilings little recorder repeated,You wont have the chance to hug me!
The little boys voice was tender and his eyes were as beautiful as ck grapes. The way he spoke was not like the cold and distant attitude of the Jing family at all. He was like an ordinary child and was very cute.
Lou Ziling had never liked children, but now she was holding Jing Che. Although her posture was a little stiff, she didnt feel repulsed by him at all.
Jing Xi was right. The person in his arms would be the king of the new generation.
20 yearster, the person who would provide support to the Lou family might be this little guy.
Lou Ziling held Jing Che with one hand and touched his head gently. She suddenly felt that perhaps Jing Ches carefree life would onlyst for the next two or three years.
As far as he knew, all the heirs of family Jing would start to receive all kinds of training at the age of three. They would learn all kinds ofplicated knowledge that was beyond the imagination of ordinary people and almost no one had a childhood.
Managing the Lous group had taken up a lot of his time every day and he had almost no free time. Family Jings group was diversified and involved in many industries, so the leader had to spend a lot of time and energy to manage it.
The way Lou Ziling touched Jing Yuans head was a little gentle, very different from the way Jing Xi usually saw him.
Jing Xi was even more confused. Did Lou Ziling really like children? It seemed that she had made the right decision to bring Jing Che here.
Lou Ziling put Jing Che on the ground and let him y on his own. He said to Jing Xi seriously,Dont bring him here to y in the future. I have a lot of things to do here, and its a mess. I cant take care of you two.
Both of them were the treasures of the Jing family. Lou Ziling was already struggling to deal with Jing Xi alone. Now that there was an even younger one, he felt even more pressured.
Im not here to y. Im here to tell you that this building is now under my personal name. If you want to renew the contract in the future, youll have to sign it with me!
Lou Ziling frowned. He would rather negotiate with Jing Rui than Jing Xi.
When negotiating with Jing Rui, both of them were very rational. They only talked about cooperation and did not involve too much personal feelings.
But what about Jing Xi?
Lou Ziling felt that even if he wanted to lower the price, he couldnt do it.
He had no qualms about tricking others, but tricking Jing Xi He could not do it.
Lou Ziling and Jing Xi stood face to face and did not speak to each other.
Jing Che didnt feel the coldness in the air. He walked in small circles in Lou Zilings office.
He was standing in front of a potted orange nt and looking at the small orange curiously when the office door was pushed open.
Luo Feiyang barged in and his eyes lit up when he saw Jing Xi.Haha, Xixi, I finally get to see you! Ive missed you so much, did you miss me?
Jing Xi looked at Luo Feiyang in shock. She didnt expect him to still be in city A. He hadnt left at all!
Jing Xi didnt reply, but Jing Che spoke in his childish voice,Ive missed you so much. Did you miss me?
Only then did Luo Feiyang notice that there was a little one in the office.
He was different from Lou Ziling. He liked children very much. As soon as he saw Jing Che, he squatted down in front of him and reached out to pinch his toot little face.Where did this cute little babye from? haha, let big brother pinch you!
Jing Che took a step back warily and said to Jing Xi,Aunt, someone is bullying me!
Jing Xi red at Luo Feiyang.Go away! Dont pinch my nephews face. I dont even want to pinch it!
She had wanted to pinch Jing Ches face for a long time, but looking at his tender little face, she could not bear to do it, for fear of hurting him.
Aunt? Luo Feiyang was surprised. This, this, this This is Jing Che?
After the shock, Luo Feiyangughed.Aiyo, cute little baby,e over and give big brother a kiss! When you grow up, I can go around showing off!
After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt that something was not quite right.
After thinking about it for a while, he realized that if Jing Che called Jing Xi aunt and brother, wouldnt that make them younger?
However, he was only neen. He couldnt possibly let a child call him uncle, right?
Luo Feiyang only hesitated for a moment before he immediately threw this small matter to the back of his mind. He smiled and said,Xixi, lets go. Ill treat you and the little girl to a meal! Ive been eating all over A city recently and found a lot of good food!
Im not going,Jing Xi shook her head.
She finally came to Lou Zilingspany. She wanted to keep an eye on Lou Ziling so that he wouldnt go to the beach with another woman like yesterday.
She had made up her mind to cut off all of Lou Zilings peach blossoms!
Just as Luo Feiyang was about to persuade her, the office door was opened once again and Ji moxuan walked in.
Luo Feiyang, you left me behind and ran away. Do you think I cant catch you?
Ji mo Xuan, what are you doing here? Get out, youre not wee here!
I dont need you to wee me. You should pay me back the money you owed me a few days ago! Im here to see Xixi, you can leave now!
The two of them began to quarrel endlessly. Lou Zilings head hurt and her face turned ugly.
This was his office, not a market. These people came as they pleased and did not treat him as an outsider at all!
However, he couldnt drive any of them away. Not to mention Jing Xi, Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan came in without his assistant, Wu Shens notice. It could only mean that Lou Mingyang hade down to pick them up personally!
If he took the liberty to drive everyone away, Lou Mingyang would probably go crazy.
However, Lou Ziling felt that she was going to go crazy if this continued.
So, for the first time, he stood on Luo Feiyangs side and agreed with his suggestion.Lets go out and eat together.
Lets get them out first. After theyre all out, hell leave alone.
As long as Lou Ziling was willing to go out, Jing Xi didnt care. She would follow him wherever he went.
Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan didnt care and just followed Jing Xi.
The group of people left thepany. Jing Xi carried Jing Che and got into Lou Zilings car. Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan were worried, so they didnt even drive their own sports cars and squeezed into Lou Zilings car.
Lou Zilings n to run away by herself would not work.
In the car, Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang did not argue. Instead, they were teasing Jing Che and talking to him. The atmosphere was very good. Jing Xi was in a good mood. She felt that Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang were much more pleasing to the eye.

The few of them were talking andughing. Lou Ziling was the only one who drove without saying a word.
He didnt like to talk, and he didnt like to listen to other peoples noise. He was even less interested in talking nonsense with a group of children.
Lou Ziling felt that the three of them were the same age. When Jing Xi was with Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang, she seemed to be more lively and talkative.
He felt that he had never been as clear-headed as he was now. He was so clear-headed that he felt cold and distant. He didnt like anyone, and he didnt need anyone to like him. He didnt suit Jing Xi.
After sending them to their destination, Lou Ziling saw Jing Che staring at him. He felt that Jing Che seemed to know that he was going to leave.
Lou Ziling touched his head and left with the excuse of parking the car.
Silence returned to the car. No one was making any noise except for Lou Ziling. Lou Zilings heart calmed down.
He was more suited to loneliness.
If she were to get married in the future, she would find someone who also liked peace and quiet.
As long as it wasnt Jing Xi, he would ept any woman.
For other women, Lou Ziling was confident enough to control her heart and could continue to be cold, proud, and lonely.
However, if it was Jing Xi, Lou Ziling would not have any confidence.
She always had the ability to attack him and destroy all his armor.
Lou Ziling didnt want to be destroyed, at least not now.
Love was the most illusory and useless thing in the world. It would only be each others weakness, which was equivalent to handing a knife to the enemy.
When Lou Ziling drove back to thepany, Lou Mingyang had already left. As the Vice president of thepany, he rarely stayed in the office. Most of the time, he was out talking about cooperation and sometimes he had to go on business trips.
However, Lou Mingyang wasnt there. Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirong were waiting for him in the guest room.
Lou Zilings expression was cold. She said to her assistant, Wu Shen,Hes gone!
President, they said that if you dont want to see them, theylle here every day, Wu Shen said, feeling a little troubled.
Lou mingzhen used to be the head of the Lou family. A starving camel was still bigger than a horse. He and Lou Zirong still had many people supporting them. Lou Ziling was too young and his Foundation was too shallow.
If he drove her away, Lou Zilings reputation as a cold-blooded and heartless person would be even more prominent.
This would be very disadvantageous to him.
No one wanted their boss to be cold-blooded and heartless.
Lou Ziling didnt think there was anything wrong with being cold-blooded. He liked being cold-blooded.
So, he didnt go to see Lou mingzhen.
However, when he was about to get off work, Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirong barged into his office. Wu Shen followed behind the two and looked at Lou Ziling anxiously and apologetically.
Lou Ziling knew that if Lou mingzhen barged in, Wu Shen would not be able to stop them unless he used his security.
He waved his hand at Wu Shen and asked him to leave.
Ziling, what do you mean by this? Im your uncle. You and your father took all the property of the Lou family and now you want to kill us?
Lou mingzhens anger rose to the sky, and his roar shook the heavens.
He was only in his fifties, but now he looked like he was in his sixties. His hair was white, his wrinkles were deep, and his face was full of hostility.
He used to be in high spirits when he was in charge of the Lou family. Because of his elegant and handsome appearance, there were even many rumors about him in his fated year.
Lou Zirong, who was beside Lou mingzhen, also didnt have his usual heroic bearing. His face was fierce.Lou Ziling, all of this was originally mine! Who Do You Think You Are? get out of this office, get out of this building!
Lou Ziling had experienced this kind of scolding many times. His heart was not moved at all. His handsome face was indifferent.Since youre looking for death, dont me yourself for falling from heaven to hell. If my father didnt plead for you in family Jing, you would have been beggars on the street!
Nonsense! It was obviously a trap set by you and your father to snatch the Lou familyspany and property!
Lou Zirong retorted Lou Ziling angrily.
He wasnt willing to ept this. He didnt want to live like this for the rest of his life!
He wanted to get back everything he had!
How could Lou Ziling, who was a serious loner and a good-for-nothing, be the high and mighty President of a Corporation?
He was not convinced!
Return my familyspany to us immediately, or Ill Sue you! Hahaha, Lou Ziling, if you dont want all your assets to be sealed by the court, you better give up the presidents position!
Lou Zilings expression was cold. The way she looked at Lou Zirong was as sharp as a knife.
Even if Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirong sued, they would definitely lose the case in the future.
They didnt care about winning or losing, but they wanted to use thewsuit to force him to give in.
That was because, regardless of whether they won thewsuit or not, as long as they did, the court would protect the assets of the Lou group to avoid the situation of property transfer.
Once the security measures were implemented, all the assets would be frozen, and the Lou group would no longer be able to operate.
No matter what, Lou Ziling would not let Lou Zirong Sue him. He could not let thepany that he had built up be destroyed in the hands of this father and son.
He still had a deep impression of his childhood memories. He knew better than anyone else that this father and son duo did not have any humanity, and there was no need to be kind to them.
Lou Ziling stood up from her office chair, walked to Lou Zirong, and punched him in the face.
Lou Zirong screamed and fell to the ground. When he got up with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, he realized that Lou Ziling had knocked out a tooth!
He pounced on Lou Ziling like a mad man, but all his punches missed. He took a few more punches to his chest.
Lou mingzhen saw that his son was at a disadvantage and also rushed over angrily.
Little bastard! When you were young, I should have strangled you on your fathers behalf! How dare you attack your brother!
It was fine if he did not mention his childhood. The moment he did, Lou Ziling was even more merciless.
After a short while, the father and son fell to the ground, panting and cursing.
In the past few years, their lives had been extremely difficult. It could even be said that they were poor and dejected. Their original demeanor and upbringing had long disappeared. Now, only ruthlessness and cynicism were left.
However, they did not expect that the unsociable and reticent little boy from back then had already grown into a towering tree. He had even be so good at beating people.
Get lost, and donte looking for death in the future. If you want to Sue me, then try and see how many lives you have! A dead person will not be sued.
Lou mingzhens eyes were bloodshot and his eyes looked a little terrifying,Lou Ziling, do you want to kill me?
He stretched his neck in front of Lou Ziling.Come on! Just kill me!
Chapter 1492
Chapter 1492: I only have one request
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Zilings ck eyes were calm and showed no signs of being angered.
Kill?
Lou Ziling had never done it before.
It wasnt worth it to dirty his hands for someone like Lou mingzhen.
If he really wanted someone to die, why would he do it himself? He couldpletely achieve his goal without anyone knowing and achieve his goal through the hands of others.
Lou Ziling didnt mind being ruthless to anyone who got in his way.
Which path of sess wasnt filled with bones?
Jing Yichen, for example, had killed countless people.
Lou Ziling yearned for sess and power. He didnt want to use his power to do evil things, nor was he desperate for money. He just wanted to gain respect through this. He didnt need to care about others opinions.
In the depths of his heart, there was a shameful thought that he was not worthy of Jing Xi. She was a Princess, but he could only be her bodyguard.
He had always concealed this thought very well. He even stopped himself from thinking about it.
He desperately hoped that he would be strong enough to be on the same level as Jing Xi one day. Only then would he be able to face his heart.
In order to be stronger, he would kill gods and Buddhas if they were in his way. No one could stop him from advancing!
In the end, Lou Ziling sent Lou mingzhen and his son away. However, for two weeks, the father and son came to thepany every day to make trouble.
Lou Ziling, return my property! Youre a Bandit!
Lou Mingyang, you and your son are despicable. You oppress your own brother and nephew and embezzled their property. You are all criminals! Youre all going to jail!
You embezzledpany funds and thepany is now an empty shell! You made those employees work for you, youre heartless!
Every day, Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirong would bring arge group of idle people to hold huge banners and shout in front of the Lou group building.
At first, Lou Mingyang tried to persuade his brother and nephew to stop and give them some money to go home and live a good life.
However, his kindness and kindness did not get the other party topromise. Instead, he was beaten up by them.
In family MUs Hospital, the Dean, Mu Qing, personally treated Lou Mingyang. His internal bleeding was finally stabilized.
Lou ruofei had already followed Luo Fei back to the United States. It was Lou Ziling and tan Zhen who were guarding Lou Mingyang in the hospital.
Her husbands internal organs were bleeding from the beating and he even fainted for a while. Tan Zhens eyes were already swollen from crying, and her throat had be extremely hoarse from the heat.
Lou Ziling stood by the bed and listened to Mu Qings advice. Lou Mingyang must remember to be angry in his current situation. He needed to rest. Lou Ziling made up her mind.
After Mu Qing left, Lou Mingyang patted tan Zhens hand and said with a pale face,How old are you? why are you still crying? Im fine, Im fine. Dont worry!
Tan Zhen wiped away her tears. However, the moment she wiped them off her face, the tears in her eyes flowed out again.
She had a very good rtionship with Lou Mingyang. Her dream was to grow old with Lou Mingyang. Her son and daughter would have their own family. Only her other half would be with them in the future.
If anything happened to Lou Mingyang, tan Zhen felt that she would immediately copse.
Lou Mingyang saw that his wife was still crying. He lifted his injured hand with some difficulty and touched her head. He coaxed her in a low voice.
Lou Ziling left the ward with an indifferent expression and strode out of the hospital.
Her father was injured, her mother was sad, and her good life was destroyed. Lou Ziling would never let the culprit go!
Lou Ziling dialed a number and said,I need your help.
A melodious female voice came out of the phone.Lou Ziling, Ive been waiting for you!
Lou Ziling hung up the phone after she said that. Then, she received a message from an unknown address.
Lou Ziling memorized the address and deleted the message. She turned on the GPS, entered the address, and drove to the destination quickly.
An hourter, Lou Zilings car stopped in front of an unremarkable two-story building.
He got out of the car and walked in.
The small building looked ordinary on the outside, but it was extremely luxurious on the inside. It was just like a small and exquisitely decorated vi.
On the Vermillion red leather sofa in the living room sat a charming woman. She was holding a snowy white Persian cat. She seemed to have been waiting for Lou Ziling for a long time.
The woman raised her hand slightly and said,President Lou, please sit!
Lou Ziling sat down on the sofa opposite her and went straight to the point.Miss Li, make Lou mingzhen and his family disappear from A city. No matter where you send them, as long as theyre alive, its fine. State your price!
Good, I like doing business with people who are quick and decisive! Li Jing pped her hands.
Her every movement was full of the grace, maturity, and enchantment of a woman, but it also revealed a sense of nobility and elegance.
In addition to her special identity and huge assets, ordinary men would need great courage to even look at her.
Even though Li Jing wasnt from A city, she was still very well-known in A city.
However, Lou Ziling sat in front of her. There was no emotion in her eyes. There was no love.
Li Jing was very interested in him. She liked to conquer men, but men would lose their fun if they were too easily conquered.
She was only a little interested in Lou Ziling, but she had always been obsessed with Jing Rui.
Li Jings attitude towards Lou Ziling was good because of his strong self-control.President Lou, this is just a small problem. Ive always been steady, urate, and ruthless. You can rest assured and leave it to me.
She stroked the Persian cats soft fur and smiled.However, I only have one request.
What is it? Lou Ziling asked.
I know its hard for you to marry me, so Ill wait until you need me more before we talk about this. But not being able to marry me doesnt mean that you cant sleep with me, right?
Why? Lou Ziling frowned.
Most women valued their chastity more than anything else. Even if Li Jing didnt care about her chastity, it didnt make sense to help him deal with a big problem and then sleep with him again.
Would a person like Li Jing suffer losses? This was impossible!
Lou Zilings intuition told her that Li Jing was up to something.
Li Jing suddenly threw the cat away and walked to Lou Zilings side. She sat down beside him and smiled at him.Normally, when I propose this kind of transaction, men would be very happy. Only you would still ask why. Dont tell me that I need a reason to like you?
Lou Ziling sniffed the strong fragranceing from Li Jings body. She suppressed her difort and said coldly,You dont like me.
Chapter 1493
Chapter 1493: I dont n to get married yet
Trantor: 549690339
Li Jing chuckled.It seems that my acting wasnt good enough, and you actually saw through me. Then Do you like me?
Lou Ziling did not even hesitate for a second. She said,I dont like it!
Oh? Then who do you like? Jing Xi?
No. Lou Ziling denied immediately.
Li Jing stood up slowly and patted Lou Zilings shoulder. She sounded happy and excited.Lou Ziling, you hesitated for a second just now.
Lou Ziling wanted to Dodge Li Jings hand, but he couldn t.
He was shocked and looked at Li Jing in disbelief.You know martial arts! Moreover, he was a top expert!
Li Jing retracted her hand. The smile on her face had disappeared, revealing her cold side.Are you surprised? If Im not wrong, Jing Xi knows how to do it too! After all, her brother Jing Rui is more powerful than me, and the Jing family will not let the only little princess be so weak.
Jing Xi? Lou Ziling frowned.Your ultimate goal is Jing Xi?
Li Jing shook her head.No, Im not interested in her. Im a woman. Of course, Im only interested in handsome men. For example You.
Of course, Lou Ziling did not think that Li Jing was interested in him. He frowned and thought for a while. Jing Ruis cold face shed through his mind and he looked at Li Jing as if she was a lunatic.You are doing this for Jing Rui?!
Li Jing remained calm even though he had seen through her. She picked up her Persian cat and sat back on the sofa. Youve guessed it. Youve learned a lot of secrets today!
Hes already married, and his child is already two years old!
Lou Ziling couldnt understand the woman in front of her.
What does that matter? In my opinion, a married man is more attractive. He knows how to dote on a woman and what love is! Wasnt it always easy for a divorced man to remarry? On the other hand, if a woman has a child, its easy for her to not be able to get married!
Lou Ziling knew that the woman Li Jing was referring to was Jing Ruis wife, Shuyin.
Lou Ziling had met Shuyin before. Although he didnt know what other men liked about women, he personally felt that women like Shuyin were morefortable.
He didnt say much, but once he opened his mouth, it was bound to be the main point.
He was smart, but he would never act smart.
Li Zhi was smart enough, but being with her always made people inexplicably ufortable.
Lou Ziling suspected that Li Jing and Shuyin had a grudge against each other. Otherwise, she wouldnt be hoping that Shuyin wouldnt be able to get married.
However, all of this had little to do with him.
Miss Li, Im afraid youll be disappointed. You cant get Jing Rui through me. Youve overestimated me.
Whether or not Im overestimating it, Ill only know after I try.
Li Jings smile returned. She didnt mind letting Lou Ziling know about her strength and purpose. She was just the tip of the iceberg. Lou Ziling would be afraid of her and would not easily change sides.
I never underestimate anyone. Lou Ziling, a year ago, I didnt think you were powerful enough. Now, I think you are. Dont underestimate yourself, and dont underestimate me.
Lou Ziling was silent for a long time before she slowly opened her mouth.You want to use Jing Xi to force Jing Rui, right? Thats impossible, you should give up!
Jing Rui loves his sister so much, whats impossible? His sisters lover is going to marry me. Do you think helle to me, or Beg me?
Li Jing could almost see Jing Rui kneeling in front of her and begging for her help. She could not help but cover her mouth andugh.
At the end of herughter, herughter was even crazed and sharp. Lou Ziling frowned.
Perhaps Li Jing had been unable to get what she wanted for so many years that she was already a little neurotic.
After Li Jing hadughed enough, she put on a serious expression and said,Lou Ziling, lets get married! Ill give you the money, power, and status you want. I can help you solve all your problems.
Im not nning to get married yet. Im here today to deal with Lou mingzhen. If you dont want to take over, Ill find someone else.
The reason why Lou Ziling asked Li Jing to solve this problem was that she was ruthless enough and had always had a good reputation. She was reliable and would not implicate her employer.
Lou Ziling didnt want to bear the infamy of killing his uncles family, nor did he want his father to bear it.
The world wouldnt care about what Lou mingzhen had done to his family. They wouldnt know what mistakes Lou mingzhen had made. They would only push all the me on Lou Ziling.
However, he would not agree to ruin Lou Zilings marriage because of this.
Although he wasnt picky about his wife, Li Jing was clearly not suitable.
Lou Zilings rejection was within Li Zhis expectations. She smiled.Its fine if you dont want to get married. We can get engaged first. You have to cooperate with us and create momentum for our marriage. The more people know about it, the better.
Lou Ziling refused again. He felt that he had nothing more to say to Li Jing, so he stood up and prepared to leave.
Li Jing, who was behind him, said,You should be careful when you see me in the future. The Jing family already knew about ourst meeting. Jing Xi Of course, she knows about it too. This is not good for our future cooperation!
She was worried that Jing Xi would ruin her n after she found out, so she sounded a little reproachful. She thought that Lou Ziling was too careless.
Lou Ziling did not respond to her. She paused for a moment and thought of Jing Xis strange behavior that day. One of her doubts was finally solved.
He knew that his meeting with Li Jing could not be hidden from family Jing, but he did not expect that the caf he had chosen would belong to Jing Yiran.
No wonder Li Jing chose this ce today. It was to prevent the Jing family from finding out about their meeting.
Lou Ziling drove away. After walking for a long distance, she realized that there were no surveince cameras along the way. Thisrge area must have belonged to Li Jing.
Most of the buildings here were low-rise buildings or ordinary small bungalows, like a quiet residential area in the countryside.
Lou Ziling sighed in his heart. Li Jing was indeed powerful and had a meticulous mind. She had considered all the details.
Perhaps, it was time for him to build up his own power in the dark.
Lou Ziling went back to the hospital. After seeing Lou Mingyang, she was relieved to see that he was in good condition. So she went to thepany.
It was enough to have tan Zhen take care of Lou Mingyang in the hospital. Lou Ziling didnt know how to take care of people at all. What he needed to do was to stabilize the hearts of the people in thepany and get rid of Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirong.
The people in thepany were in a state of panic. Many of them were affected by the rumors. When they saw Lou Ziling, they looked at her with a subtle gaze. Some of them were in awe, while some of them were disdainful.
Lou Ziling ignored all the gazes and went to the guest room. Her second brother, Lou Ziyi, was already waiting for her there.
Chapter 1494
Chapter 1494: Closing the contract
Trantor: 549690339
Compared to Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirongs hostility, Lou Ziyis body was peaceful. Other than a little more worry between his eyebrows, there were not many changes.
He had been instilled with the idea of not fighting for anything since he was a child. Everything belonged to his brother, Lou Zirong. So, he didnt feel angry when his family suddenly changed. He found a job and went to work steadily withoutining.
Seeing Lou Ziling in a suit and cold expression, Lou Ziyi, as her brother, was a little helpless. He said apologetically,Ziling, is your father Okay? This is my dad and brothers fault. I, I Im here to apologize to second uncle on their behalf.
Lou Ziyi passed the nutritional supplements he brought to Lou Ziling, but she did not take them.
Second brother, this has nothing to do with you. You dont have to me yourself and you dont have to apologize. You dont have toe back in the future. Go back!
Ziling, I know youre getting stronger and stronger. You might be angry that second uncle was injured, but second uncle and my father are brothers. Theres no overnight hatred between them. Can you let it go this time?
Lou Ziyi grew up under the protection of his father and brother for the past twenty years. In his eyes, they were the best father and brother, and he didnt want anything to happen to them.
Lou Ziyi actually wanted to go to Lou ruofei, but Lou ruofei was not in the country. He could only go to Lou Ziling.
Before he came, Lou Ziyi wasnt sure if he could convince Lou Ziling.
This cousin of his was not close to anyone. Lou Ziyi could count the number of times he had called him second brother. Although they were cousins, they had not spoken much since they were young.
Lou Ziyi only knew that Lou Ziling, who used to be the most quiet and unsociable child, had be the most sessful and outstanding member of the Lou family.
He had a feeling that Lou Ziling had been a genius since she was a child, but no one knew about her. Perhaps it was because her father and brother had joined forces to suppress her. Without their suppression, Lou Ziling grew from a small and unremarkable sapling to a tall tree.
My dad wont mind. This matter ends here.
Lou Ziling turned around and left the room.
Lou Ziyi thought that he really wouldnt hold it against her, so she believed his words and left happily.
However, as soon as Lou Ziyi left, Lou Ziling started to find someone else to deal with Lou mingzhen.
He said that Lou Mingyang wouldnt care, but that didnt mean that he wouldn t!
He made thepanys reputation so bad and beat Lou Mingyang until his internal organs bled, but he didnt care? Not being calctive would make Lou mingzhen even more insolent!
A few dayster, Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirong disappeared from A city.
However, Lou Zilings men had not started to attack.
He frowned and called Li Jing.You did this?
Li Jings voice sounded a little proud.Of course! Youre smart enough to know that its my doing. Dont worry, they wont die, theyll just suffer a little. These two used to y tricks when they worked for me, so its good to give them some punishment now.
Whats your condition?
Lou Ziling did not believe that Li Zhi would help him for nothing.
No conditions. Im just giving you a taste of sweetness. In the future, youll be more and more attached to me, and then youll finally agree to marry me!
You dont have to think about marriage. Youre not in my consideration.
Lou Ziling didnt want to have anything to do with Li Jing. There was no such thing as a free lunch.
Name a price and Ill transfer the money to you.
Its hurtful to talk about money between us. Im only doing you a small favor. If I need your help in the future, you can do me a small favor too. How about it?
Li Jing refused to ept the money and even offered to work with Lou Ziling.Your familys high-end sports equipment reputation is getting better and better. I think we should meet again when we have time. The Li familys branches all over the country need to purchase inrge quantities.
This would obviously bring huge profits to Lou Ziling. However, Lou Ziling was extremely calm.What do you want? I can give you very little.
Since youre not willing to marry me or get engaged to me, I can only settle for the second best and be your girlfriend for a while. This request isnt too high, right?
Li Jing was determined to get Lou Ziling. She knew better than Lou Zilings ce in Jing Xis heart, so she wanted to get Lou Ziling before Jing Xi did.
Its just an act. Im only your girlfriend in name, just like your previous girlfriends. The only difference is that I need you to acknowledge my identity verbally. I wont interfere with any of your life, but Ill help you a little when youre in trouble.
The time limit is one year. If you fall in love with another woman in the meantime, you can also date in secret at any time, as long as the person is not Jing Xi!
Of course, if you want to improve the contract, we can get married at any time. After the marriage, the Li family will provide you with all kinds of financial and channel support. I guarantee that your business will exceed 10 billion in three years and that the Lou family will be one of the top ten families in city A.
This was the most profitable deal Lou Ziling had ever made since she took over thepany.
He didnt even need to pay anything, he just needed to collect the money.
He would not suffer any losses.
No, the only thing he lost was probably a little girl who loved him.
However, wasnt this a good chance to make her give uppletely?
It was impossible for them to be together. She was too young. It was still not toote to forget him and like someone else.
He shouldnt have let her sink deeper and deeper into it when she was still an underaged girl.
It was her first awakening of love. Perhaps she still did not understand what love was, or perhaps she was just relying on him and not love at all.
He didnt know why, but when he thought about how Jing Xi might never appear in front of him again, and how she might never speak to him again, he felt an unspeakable pain in his heart.
He smiled sarcastically. Perhaps he had gotten used to Jing Xis existence unknowingly.
Theres no need to go any further into the contract. Another year is too long.
Li Jing was a little surprised. She had thought that her persuasion would not work this time.
However, Lou Ziling relented!
She was very happy. Whether her n to target Jing Rui would seed or not, just being able to fall in love with Lou Ziling gave Li Jing a great sense of achievement. Even if it was a fake rtionship, it would be good.
Who knew if it would be a reality in the future?
He was so handsome, so young, and so powerful. Li Jing was so excited that she felt like she was no longer 28, but 18!
Half a year then, she said happily.Our contract will take effect starting next month!
Lou Ziling took a deep breath and made a decision.Alright, deal!
Chapter 1495
Chapter 1495: Failed
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi had been busy these days. She had no time to y with her cute little nephew, nor to find Lou Ziling.
Thest time they had dinner together, he had stood her up. Jing Xi still held a grudge against him for that.
Shangguan ning had given Liyu Science & Technology to Jing Xi. All the shares would be transferred to Jing Xi when she turned eighteen.
Most of the properties of Jingsheng enterprise and family Jing would be inherited by Jing Rui. In order to prevent the division of shares and internal power struggle, family Jing had always had only one heir.
Shangguan ning left her ownpany and all her assets to her daughter.
Shangguan nings personal wealth had been umted to this day.
With Jing Yichens support, Liyu Science & Technology had be the leader of the household appliances industry. The sales of refrigerators, washing machines, and air conditioners were the highest in A city. They had started to be exported a few years ago and sold to all parts of the world.
And Jing Xis 16th birthday present was the building that Lou Ziling was renting.
Of course, Jing Yichen had left other properties for his daughter, but she was still young, so Jing Rui had been managing them for Jing Xi.
When Jing Xi got married in the future, the dowry would be extremely generous.
Born in a rich family, Jing Xi had been exposed to a lot of business-rted knowledge since she was a child, and Jing Yichen had also been focusing on her business skills.
He didnt want his daughter to only be beautiful. If a girl wanted to gain a foothold in society, she must have a strong material Foundation.
However, theory was theory, and practice was practice. When Jing Xi really started to take over thepany, she was a little overwhelmed.
One of the most obvious things was that the people under her did not listen to hermand at all.
The core team and the management of Liyu Science & Technology all listened to Shangguan nings arrangements subconsciously. They would never ask Jing Xi, who was only 16 years old, for help, but would ask Shangguan ning for help.
It wasnt the crowds fault for looking down on Jing Xi. Everyone thought that she was just a happy-go-lucky girl who came to thepany for fun. They didnt see her as a leader at all.
Thanks to Shangguan nings support, Jing Xi was not ostracized too much.
She was sitting in Shangguan nings office with her chin in her hands, feeling very troubled.
Liyu Science & Technologys office building was 20 stories high. It was even taller and more imposing than the office building of the Lou group.
It wasnt because Liyu Science & Technology had more employees than Lous group, but because this office building had been gifted to Shangguan ning by Jing Yichen. The location and the view were both excellent.
Jing Xi looked at the tall buildings outside and began to Miss Lou Ziling again.
She wondered how he managed to take over the entirepany in such a short time.
The Lou familyspany was very different from Liyu Science & Technology. The employees of Liyu Science & Technology were all very loyal to Shangguan ning. Everyone was very polite to her, the future heir. Some of the senior management even taught her how to win the hearts of the people under her.
However, there were many people in the Lou family who opposed Lou Zilings control of thepany. Some of them even openly opposed him.
She had not seen Lou Ziling for many days. Jing Xi was worried that he would get a new girlfriend if she did not stop him.
On the other hand, Jing Xi was not too anxious about running thepany.
At the beginning of October, a scandal swept through the entire A city and caused a great shock.
Lou Zilings seventh girlfriend was Li Jing, the most popr girl from a rich family.
In October, the performance of the Lou Corporation had doubled and was still growing at an amazing speed.
What everyone talked about the most was not their family background, looks, or love history, but the fact that the woman was five years older than the man and that they were in a rare elder-brother rtionship in the rich.
The headlines of the financial and entertainment section were all upied by these two people. The poprity continued to rise, and they did a free advertisement for the Lou familys sports equipment.
Now, many people in A city were proud of buying sports equipment from Lous group. Lou Zilings newly developed badminton rackets and tennis rackets were out of stock.
Lou Ziling personally drove to therge production base in the suburbs to supervise the production process and ensure that there were sufficient supplies in the market.
For the past few days, he had been busy untilte at night and got up before dawn. He didnt even sleep three hours a day.
But even so, he still had time to show off his love.
Jing Xi had been seeing him in the headlines of the morning newspapers of A city for three days in a row!
On the first day, Lou Ziling and Li Zhi were shopping side by side in a luxury store. They bought Li Jing a sapphire ne worth more than two million Yuan and a Cartier diamond watch, which was a limited edition worldwide.
Jing Xi tore the newspaper in anger andforted herself. It must be fake news. Lou Ziling would never give a woman anything.
The next day, Lou Ziling took Li Jing for a candlelight dinner. Not only did they give her arge bouquet of red roses, but they also gave her a Lamborghini sports car.
Jing Xi was so angry that she smashed a light bulb. She consoled herself that Lou Ziling was just putting on an act. How could she have so much money to buy a sports car? Besides, the two of them had only had a meal, they didnt even hold hands!
On the third day, Li Zhi held Lou Zilings arm and epted an exclusive interview with a TV station.
Although the interview time was very short, Lou Ziling personally admitted that they were in love and their rtionship was very good.
Jing Xi almost smashed theputer on Shangguan nings desk after watching the video.
Finally, she couldnt sit still anymore. She didnt care about thepany or whether she had a drivers license. She drove straight to the Lou Corporation.
She ran into Lou Zilings office. People tried to stop her but they couldn t.
He was not alone in Lou Zilings office. There was another person sitting on the ck leather sofa and drinking coffee leisurely.
Li Jing!
Jing Xi was furious. She didnt care who Li Jing was. She rushed over and was about to give Li Jing an over-shoulder throw. She wanted to teach the woman who had stolen Lou Ziling a lesson.
However, her agile movements had failed.
Li Zhi nimbly dodged her hand, grabbed her arm, and threw her over her shoulder more nimbly than Jing Xi.
Jing Xi fell to the floor with a loud thud.
Li Jing didnt hold back. Jing Xis back hurt from the fall, but she immediately got up from the floor without a word.
Ignoring the pain in her body, Jing Xis expression was more serious than ever.If Im not mistaken, your moves are the same as my brother s!
Jing Rui had learned all the moves from the killer organization.
As soon as they met, Jing Xi realized that Li Jing was not an ordinary person.
At least, she had received high-intensity assassin training in an assassin organization!

Chapter 1496: I hate you
Trantor: 549690339
A strange look shed across Li Jings eyes. She didnt expect Jing Xi to be able to recognize her move!
Ordinary people would at most think that her reaction was extremely fast. They would never think of the source of the move, and no one would recognize that it was a killer move, because those who had seen this move were all dead.
She had been too careless and forgotten that Jing Xi was a special girl. She was the only person in the world who had two killer brothers.
But Li Jing was not worried that Jing Xi would find out about her identity, since Jing Rui had already known.
Li Jing had killed countless people. She was a strong woman who had survived countless killings, and her style and temperament werepletely different from Jing Xi s.
Jing Xi had never killed anyone before, and most of her moves were self-defense. She had no intention of fighting Li Jing to the death, but Li Jings attacks were extremely ruthless and deadly.
Xixi, you barged into my boyfriends office and hit me. Ive already shown you mercy for your brothers sake! Your sister-inw is my sister, and jingche has to call me aunt. We are all rtives, so I wont pursue this matter!
Jing Xi sneered,you hit me. How dare you say that you wont pursue the matter? Also, Lou Ziling is my woman. Go back to where you came from!
This was the biggest loss Jing Xi had ever suffered in her life.
But she was never a timid person. Jing Yichen had trained her to be a brave, strong and Fearless Girl. She had always been a tough girl. Otherwise, she would have given up after being rejected by Lou Ziling so many times.
Li Jings strength triggered Jing Xis will to fight. She even forgot the pain in her back. She slowly walked up to Li Jing and attacked her in an instant.
Li Jing was twelve years older than Jing Xi, and she had more fighting and killing experience than Jing Xi.
There was no doubt that Jing Xi had lost again in this round.
She was thrown heavily to the floor, but she didnt even frown. She quickly stood up again, and she stood up straight.
Jing Xi was expressionless, but Lou Ziling frowned. He could tell that Jing Xi and Li Jing were not on the same level.
He couldnt stand Jing Xi being beaten in front of him and immediately stopped her.Stop fighting!
But Jing Xi turned a deaf ear to him. She didnt even look at him and continued to fight with Li Jing.
When Jing Xi fell on the hard floor for the third time, she got up again with bright red blood flowing from the corner of her lips.
She clenched her fists tightly and walked towards Li Jing like a robot that didnt know fatigue or pain.
Lou Ziling couldnt take it anymore. She grabbed Jing Xis wrist and said,Stop fighting! Youre already injured!
Jing Xi pulled her wrist out of Lou Zilings hand and pped him hard.Get lost!
Her voice was a little shrill, and she couldnt hide the trembling in it.
Her clear eyes quickly turned red. Her tears fell and fell on the back of Lou Zilings hand.
Lou Zilings face was burning with pain, but she couldnt get angry.
There was only bitterness and pain in his heart.
When the young woman was angry, it still hurt when she hit him. She didnt care, just like thest time she bit him and bled. Until now, there was still a light scar.
However, this was the best ending!
Lou Ziling closed her eyes to hide her emotions. When she looked at Jing Xi again, there was no emotion in her eyes. She said coldly,This is my office. You should be the one leaving!
This entire building is mine. Why should I go out?!
Jing Xi refused to leave. She had been beaten up by Li Jing so many times. How could she just let it go?
She had been bullied by Lou Ziling and Li Jing, so she had to fight back!
She wanted to fight Li Jing again, but Lou Ziling picked her up, put her on his shoulder, and strode out.
Lou Ziling, you bastard! Put me down! Are you afraid that Ill hurt that woman, so youre deliberately protecting her? Dont touch me, I feel disgusted! Youre not human, youre a beast! Youre worse than a beast!
Jing Xi was lying on Lou Zilings shoulder with her head down. She was cursing and kicking him.
However, Lou Ziling did not let go. She carried her into the elevator with steady steps.
As soon as she put Jing Xi down in the elevator, she ran out immediately.
Lou Ziling pulled her back and pressed her against the corner of the elevator, not letting her move.
He was afraid that Li Jing would still hit her if she went back.
Her lips were bleeding, but so was his heart.
He used to protect her so well and never let her get hurt. He even kept all the small wild fruits for her because she liked to eat them. He would rather eat tree leaves on the ind to replenish his vitamins!
He had protected her for far too long. How could he let her get hurt when he was about to leave?
Trapped in Lou Zilings arms, Jing Xi was already crying.Let me go, you bastard! You bastard! Lou Ziling, youre not human. I wont like you anymore! Why do you like an old woman? shes so annoying!
I dont like her touching you, how can you let her touch you! Youre mine, mine and mine alone! When you were dating those girls in the past, you were different from now! Youve changed! I hate you!
Didnt I tell you to wait for me? Why didnt you wait? When I grow up, cant you marry me? Ive liked you for so long and missed you every day. Dont you feel anything at all? I dont believe it!
Lou Ziling had lived to this day and only now did she know that her heart could hurt.
He had always thought that he was cold-blooded and emotionless, and that his heart was harder than the hardest diamond.
When Lou Mingyang was beaten up and admitted to the hospital, Lou Ziling was only angry. He didnt have any other feelings. He thought that he didnt have any heartache.
But now, with Jing Xi in his arms, his heart was being torn apart inch by inch.
The pain quickly spread from his heart to his limbs and bones, enveloping his entire body and almost suffocating him.
For Lou Ziling, Jing Xis most Lethal Weapon was not her strong background or her beautiful face, but her crystal tears.
In just a few seconds, the back of his shirt was already drenched.
The pain he had suffered was no less than Jing Xi s.
But he was introverted and showed no emotions on the surface. Even the strength he used to imprison Jing Xi was controlled just right, without any signs of losing control.
The elevator went down to the first floor. The door opened and Lou Ziling pushed the girl out of her arms.
Jing Xi stood outside the elevator door, tears hanging on her fair face, and the sadness in her eyes was indescribable.
The elevator door closed slowly, separating her and Lou Ziling into two different worlds.
Chapter 1497
Chapter 1497: Kneel down
Trantor: 549690339
Outside the elevator, Jing Xi suddenly burst into tears. She didnt care about the strange looks from Lou Zilings employees.
In the elevator, Lou Ziling did not press the button for 14 for a long time. He could clearly hear Jing Xis crying through the elevator door.
He was heartbroken and heartbroken.
Lou Zilings eyes turned red unconsciously. He had to control himself with all his might to not rush out.
The crying didntst for long and slowly disappeared.
When Lou Ziling felt that Jing Xi had left, she suddenly felt as if a part of her heart had been dug out. She felt terrible.
He tried to stand up straight, pressed the button for the 14th floor, and slowly walked back to his office.
Li Jing sat on the sofa and saw Lou Zilings Red eyes. She couldnt hide her surprise.President Lou, youre Crying?
Lou Ziling looked at her coldly. There was obvious anger in her voice.Miss Li, youve hit her too hard. Shes still a child!
Why? is your heart aching? Li Jings lips twitched.
Lou Ziling stared at her with a sharp gaze.We need to add another condition to our agreement. She cant be harmed in any way!
Li Jing yawnedzily and said,Dont worry, shes very skilled and her defense is almost wless. Although it looked like she fell hard just now, she didnt actually suffer any injuries. Otherwise, I wont be able to exin it to Jing Rui.
Lou Ziling didnt ept Li Jings exnation.
He had clearly seen that Jing Xi must have been in pain from the fall. If she was really a little girl who didnt know any martial arts, she would have been seriously injured by Li Jing.
Moreover, Lou Ziling felt that Jing Rui, as Jing Xis brother, would be more concerned about Jing Xi. If he knew that Li Zhi had hurt his only sister, Li Jing would not have a good life.
Li Jing seemed to know what Lou Ziling was thinking. She smiled charmingly.I was just waiting for Jing Rui to find me! I havent seen him in a long time. If he can appear in front of me after I hurt Jing Xi, Id be d to be scolded by him!
Did you hurt her on purpose? Lou Zilings face turned cold.
Of course not!
Li Zhi denied it. I was just acting in self-defense. You saw it yourself. Jing Xi was the one who provoked me first. She was the one who hit me every time. I didnt do it, did I? Shes about to hit me, I cant just sit there and let her hit me!
Although it was true that Jing Xi had started the fight, she had not taken any advantage of Li Jing at all. Lou Zilings heart was heavy, and she looked at Li Jing more and more unhappily.
The show is over, you can leave now!
President Lou, youre burning bridges! Dont think I cant see that youre using me to make Jing Xi give up on you! That little girl is really pitiful!
Li Jing said poor, but her tone was full of gloating, as if she was happy that someone else couldnt get their love.
She stood up, picked up her herms bag that was worth hundreds of thousands, and walked away in her high heels.
Lou Ziling was left alone in the spacious office after the door was closed.
He was a workaholic, but now he didnt have the mood and passion to work.
He had thought that he could devote himself to his career after cutting off his rtionship with Jing Xi.
However, the current situation was theplete opposite!
He sat in front of his desk, his mind filled with Jing Xis image and her crying. He could not calm down to work at all.
Lou Ziling felt exhausted like never before. It was as if all the strength in her body had been drained.
He sat there in a daze for a while before he finally got up and left the office building to return to his vi.
The vi was empty, and he was alone.
In the past, Lou Ziling only liked to be alone. He liked to be alone and enjoyed being alone.
But now, he felt that loneliness was a little scary!
Perhaps it was because he had been exhausted for so many days, he only slept for a few hours a day. Hey in bed and took a nap.
When he woke up again, it was already the next day.
Everything that had happened the day before seemed to be an unreal dream. When Lou Ziling woke up from the dream, she had returned to her usual cold, arrogant and indifferent self.
When he went to thepany, he quickly immersed himself in work as if nothing had happened.
However, he did not know why, but he felt that there was something missing in his heart.
He, who rarely smiled, could not even find a trace of a smile on his face.
A weekter, Jingsheng enterprise proposed to terminate the contract with Lous enterprise. They stopped all cooperation and even prepared to take back their office building.
Because it was Jingsheng enterprise that terminated the contract, they had to face a huge amount ofpensation.
Jing Xi had stopped crying after she left Lous group that day.
The Lou family had chosen to cooperate with the Li family again, and there might even be a marriage. This was not only about her love as a girl, but also about the interests of Jingsheng enterprise.
Jing Yichen was so angry that he removed family Lou from family Jings sphere of influence.
Furthermore, Lou Ziling had hurt his daughter. This was unforgivable!
When Lou Mingyang, who had been recuperating in the vi in the suburbs, found out about all this, it would be toote to redeem himself!
He was originally recuperating in peace. After he found out from others that his son was in a rtionship with Li Zhi, he fainted from anger. Tan Zhen, who was taking care of him, was so scared that her face turned pale and she cried like a baby.
When Lou Mingyang woke up, he wanted to apologize to Jing Yichen, but he couldnt even get through Jing Yichens phone.
So, Lou Mingyang called Lou Ziling to the vi in the suburbs.
Unfilial son, kneel!
Lou Mingyangs anger shook the sky. Lou Ziling had never seen him so angry before.
He slowly knelt in front of Lou Mingyang. He didnt exin or plead.
Lou Ming picked up the book beside him and threw it at Lou Ziling. Lou Zilings forehead immediately swelled.
Tan Zhen was shocked. She was afraid that Lou Mingyang would hurt her son, so she quickly pleaded,Ming Yang, calm down. Isnt thepany not affected too much? Without family Jings support, ourpany is developing well, which is a good thing! This means that our son is developing thepany well and doesnt need to rely on others!
How is this a good thing? Why did my big brother fall? Why can I get the Lou familys business andpany? Its all because of family Jings support that we are where we are today! How can you be so ungrateful!
Lou Mingyangs body trembled with anger,Cut off all ties with Li Jing immediately. Youre not allowed to have any contact with her in the future!
Lou Ziling finally opened her mouth.I have signed an agreement with her. The term is half a year. I cant terminate the contract now.
Terminate, the contract must be terminated! I want to terminate the contract now!
In the past, Lou Mingyang didnt care much about Lou Zilings love. He thought that it was a good thing that his son was willing to fall in love, but he would never allow his son to fall in love with Li Zhi.
You either cut off all ties with Li Jing or you cut off all ties with me. Lou Ziling, make your choice!

Chapter 1498: Stop being banned
Trantor: 549690339
It was obviously impossible to cut off their father-son rtionship with Lou Mingyang. Although Lou Ziling was not very close to his parents, he was not cold to the point of not recognizing his own family.
In the depths of his heart, he still hoped to be a filial son.
Otherwise, when Lou Mingyang had forced him to apany Jing Xi and protect him, he could have run away from home and not listen to Lou Mingyang.
But he couldnt just break his rtionship with Li Jing.
Li Jing had provided thepany with strong support, which was more direct and effective than family Jings support. Thepanys profits had increased by several times, and if they gave up, the losses would be immeasurable.
Lou Ziling kneeled in silence and didnt answer.
Lou Mingyang walked away in anger. Tan Zhen had no choice and did not dare to let her son get up. She was also afraid that Lou Mingyang would faint from anger again, so she quickly followed behind him.
Lou Ziling knelt straight untilte at night.
The bruises on Jing Xis body had disappeared in the past few days, but Shangguan ning was still heartbroken.
She had treated her daughter like a baby since she was a child. Even if Jing Xi was mischievous and loved to torment people when she was young, she had never dared to touch her daughter. She didnt even dare to scold her.
That day, Jing Xi came home with red eyes. Her clothes were crumpled and her long hair was messy. Shangguan ning took off her clothes and saw a big bruise on her back.
Even Jing Xis arm had blue and purple fingerprints, as if someone had pinched her hard.
Shangguan ning was both angry and heartbroken. She called her son directly.Ruirui, your sister was bullied. Shes beaten up so badly that her body is covered in bruises!
Jing Rui understood what had happened and said calmly,Mom, dont worry. Leave this to me.
Li Jing had waited for an entire week before the person she had been thinking about for a long time finally arrived.
She was dressed in a splendid attire, her makeup was exquisite, her long hair was slightly curled, and in the autumn wind, she was like a rose in full bloom, radiant and soul-stealing.
Rui, long time no see!
Jing Rui stood a meter away from her, his eyes calm.
Li Jing was not only Shuyins sister, but she was also very powerful. It would cost a lot to take her down, so Jing Rui had always maintained a bnce with her. As long as Li Jing knew her ce, he would not kill her.
But now that she had hurt Jing Xi, Jing Rui would not let her go no matter what.
He aimed his fist at Li Jings face and gave her a hard punch. After she steadied herself, he kicked her again.
Li Jing was in a sorry state. Two lines of blood flowed out of her nose, and her clothes and hair were in a mess.
She fell to the ground and could not get up for a long time.
She had never been able to defeat Jing Rui, and the gap between their abilities had been getting bigger and bigger.
Jing Rui stopped in front of her and kicked her again when he saw that she was about to get up.
Li Jing, or should I call you Zishan? My sister isnt someone you should make use of, and shes not someone you can touch. Youd better behave yourself, or Ill have to send your father to hell!
Li Zhi wiped the blood from her nose and mouth. She was not surprised that Jing Rui had called her Zishan, because she knew that Jing Rui had known her identity for a long time.
She only used a pitiful tone and said,Rui, you hit me as soon as you came, but I didnt fight back and let you hit me. Are you still not willing to let my father go? I like Xixi too, but she started it. I cant just let her hit me, can I?
My sister can hit whoever she wants, and you have to let her hit you! So what if she made the first move? dont tell me shes waiting for you to make the first move?
Jing Rui was very protective of his sister. He only allowed his sister to hit others, and never allowed anyone to hit Jing Xi. He did not care who was in the right. If he did not protect his sister, who would?
Besides, Jing Xi is no match for you. You hurt her on purpose!
Jing Rui was well aware of Jing Xis strength. It was more than enough to deal with an ordinary Jing Xi, but it was impossible for her to deal with a top killer who had climbed out of a pile of dead bodies.
Even Jing Xi and her bodyguards couldnt defeat Li Jing.
Jing Rui did not say anything threatening. He kicked Li Jing twice. Li Jing would have to stay in the hospital for half a month.
After dealing with Li Jing, Jing Rui drove to Liyu technology with a cold face.
Jing Xi was sitting in her office, wearing a fashionable white suit and silver high heels. Her long hair was tied up behind her head, making her look like a standard white-cor worker.
She was surprised to see Jing Rui and asked with a smile,Brother, are you here to invest in mypany? A warm wee!
Dont be so cheeky,Jing Rui said angrily.Dont be so willful in the future! Li Jing is in danger. Didnt I tell you a few years ago? Youre not allowed to show off in the future!
Jing Xi toot and said,You did say that, but I think Im also very powerful. Who knew that she was on the same level as you! There are only a few people like you and second brother in the world. How would I know that the world is so small and Id meet a third one? and its such a delicate beauty.
You know you cant beat her, but you still keep taking the initiative to attack. If she wasnt afraid, you would have been dead!
No one knew Li Jings character better than Jing Rui. She was cruel and merciless. He was worried that his sister would lose her life if she were to anger Li Jing.
Although he had been overbearing and protective of Jing Xi in front of Li Jing, he didnt dare to say that in front of Jing Xi.
Otherwise, Jing Xi would be even morewless.
It was a good thing to have Li Jing to let Jing Xi know that there was always someone better than her. At least she would remember this and not be so impulsive next time.
Aiya, Alright, alright, I got it! You didnt evenfort me when I was injured, and you even lectured me. Im so sad!
Jing Xis eyes suddenly lit up.Brother, did you beat up that Vixen for me?
Jing Rui nodded after a moment of hesitation.
Haha, thats great! Her biological brother was still the most reliable, unlike some people who were ck-hearted and only knew how to protect vixens! Hmph!
Jing Xi only felt a little better after she scolded Lou Ziling.
Jing Rui frowned.You are not allowed to see Lou Ziling anymore. I will discuss with my father and ban the Lou family. He can forget about Lou Zilingspany!
This
Jing Xi bit her lip and whispered,lets not. Hes finally managed to make thepany big. Dont shut him out.
Didnt you just say that he was protecting the Vixen?
Aiya, did I say that? Big brother, you heard wrong! Lets not work with the Lou family. Dont force Lou Ziling to her death!

Chapter 1499: The little demoness reappears in the martial world
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Rui knew that his sister loved Lou Ziling deeply. No matter how angry she was, she would not let Lou Ziling go bankrupt.
He shook his head helplessly, feeling that his sisters personality was too gentle.
He took after his father, Jing Yichen, and was cold and heartless. But Jing Xi took after Shangguan ning, kind and innocent. She would give money to the beggars on the street and would feed stray cats and dogs.
His sister was so good, and Lou Ziling was so blind that she didnt like her?
Jing Rui sternly told Jing Xi not to look for Lou Ziling again, and then drove to the office building of Lous group.
After beating Li Jing up, Jing Rui still felt that he had to beat Lou Ziling up again.
When Jing Rui saw Lou Ziling in the guest room, he was surprised.
He thought that Lou Ziling was doing well with the support of the Li family. He thought that Lou Ziling would be happy and handsome. However, he did not expect to see a thin and tired Lou Ziling. He looked as if he had not rested for a few days and his eyes were bloodshot.
President Jing, youre here for Jing Xi, arent you?
Lou Zilings voice was unusually hoarse.Im not at fault in this matter. Ive always treated her like a child and never gave her any hope. Shes still young, its not toote for her to forget about me.
Theres no mistake?
Jing Rui sneered.I dont care about anything else. She was hurt here by you. You are to me! Shes never been beaten up like this before!
Shes injured?Lou Ziling frowned.
That day, he had only seen Jing Xi fall to the floor a few times, but she had jumped up without any injury.
Could Li Jing have been very heavy-handed?
Damn it!
He should have added the use that he could not hurt Jing Xi into the contract earlier!
Seeing that Lou Zilings surprised look was not fake, Jing Ruis face looked a little better.
With Li Jings ability, she could have hurt Jing Xi without Lou Ziling noticing.
It was possible that Jing Xi was pretending to be fine because she didnt want to embarrass herself in front of Lou Ziling.
Perhaps Li Jing had also seen through this, and that was why she had dared to be so cruel to Jing Xi in secret.
Jing Rui didnt attack Lou Ziling. Lou Ziling was in a bad condition. He thought that if he attacked, Lou Ziling would fall into aa and be admitted to the hospital. If Jing Xi knew about it, she would me him.
As long as Lou Ziling was not doing well, Jing Rui would be at ease.
He wouldnt let Lou Ziling have an easy time in the future.
Lou Ziling wasnt having a good time, and Li Jing wasnt any better.
She had been injured by Jing Rui, and in order to prevent any side effects, she had to recuperate in a private hospital.
She didnt go to family MUs Hospital, which had the best medical treatment, because she was worried that they would tamper with her medicine. So, she went to a private hospital invested by the Li family.
However, the private hospital was still not safe.
Jing Xi came to the hospital almost every day and gave Li Jing a big surprise every day.
Li Jings bodyguards either disappeared for no reason, fell ill and frothed on the ground, or slept like dead pigs during their shift.
Jing Xi entered her Ward easily.
Hey, Vixen, Ive brought you a gift!
Jing Xis entire body was covered up, and she was wearing a helmet that sealed her body well.
Under the helmet, she was smiling brightly.
Then, she opened a big box that was tied with a beautiful bow, and arge swarm of bees flew out.
Jing Xi flicked the bees off her body and turned to run away, locking the door of Li Jings ward.
She stood outside the door and listened to Li Jings screams in the ward. She hummed a tune happily and left.
The next day, Jing Xi came to check on the results.
However, she didnt leave from the front door. Instead, she had fastened the safety rope and climbed down from the top floor of the hospital. She then smashed the window of Li Jings ward and greeted Li Jing with one hand holding the rope and the other.
When she saw the bags on Li Jings face, her eyes curved into crescents as she smiled.Beautifuldy, I have a gift for you today!
Li Jing saw Jing Xi hanging in the air outside the window and immediately had a bad feeling. She said loudly,Men!
However, the bodyguards outside seemed to be deaf. None of them came in to protect her.
Oh, stop shouting, Jing Xi said with a smile.No one can hear you even if you shout yourself hoarse. Ive already drugged them!
As she spoke, she took out a transparent ss bottle, removed the lid, and threw it at Li Jing.The consequence of snatching Lou Ziling from me is that you would rather die. Youd better quit!
She said Bye Bye with great self-restraint, grabbed the rope, and quickly slid down from the window to the ground, then left happily.
Li Jing, who was in the ward, had already vomited from the stench of the ss bottle.
She wanted to throw the ss bottle out of the window, but the moment her fingers touched the ss, it was stuck to her body so firmly that she couldnt shake it off!
Li Jing subconsciously tried to pull it with her other hand, but both her hands were stuck to the bottle!
Not only that, but a few minutester, she started to have severe diarrhea.
Her chest and abdomen had been injured by Jing Rui, so it was difficult for her to get out of bed. Before she could get out of bed and go to the bathroom, she had diarrhea.
And then And then Li Jing wanted to die!
Jing Xi came again a dayter.
Haha, Miss Li, youre changing rooms! Why? I remember that your original Ward was the best one in this hospital! Could it be Because the room is too smelly and no one can stay in it?
Li Jing had been vomiting and having diarrhea for the past two days!
When she saw Jing Xi, she wanted to tear her apart!
Unfortunately, she had no strength at all and couldnt even get up.
Li Jing called for her bodyguards, but when the few people who hade in saw Jing Xi, they all ran away as if they had seen a ghost.
Aiya, Miss Li, your bodyguard is not up to standard. Hes too timid. Im so pretty and cute. Why is he so afraid of me?
Jing Xi slowly walked to Li Jing and touched her face.Lou Ziling, I guess. He doesnt like me, and I hate him now. But if I cant have him, no one else can!
Li Jing wanted to p away Jing Xis hand on her face, but she found that she didnt even have the strength to raise her hand.
Impossible. No matter how bad her diarrhea was, it was impossible that she didnt have the strength to raise her hand!
When did Jing Xi drug her?
Li Jing looked at Jing Xi in shock and anger. She felt that the innocent and lovely little girl in front of her was terrifying!

Trantor: 549690339
Hehe, I added something to your IV. How is it? I developed it myself. I even tried it before, but I couldnt get out of bed for two days. My father scolded me. He rarely scolds me.
Those who didnt know would have thought that Jing Xi and Li Zhi were good friends if they had heard their casual conversation.
Im leaving. Ille and see you in two days!
After Jing Xi left, Li Jings body returned to normal not long after.
She found it a little strange. She felt that Jing Xis methods this time were too light. She found it hard to believe.
It was only at night that Li Jing realized that her face, which had been touched by Jing Xi, was swollen like a big bun. And he was so numb that he couldnt feel anything!
There was poison in her hand!
Li Jing had smashed all the mirrors, changed all the bodyguards, and even changed the hospital.
But two dayster, Jing Xi appeared again.
She gave Li Jing a beautiful bouquet of blue roses and left in a hurry without saying anything.
After Jing Xi left, Li Jing immediately asked someone to throw the flowers away.
Unfortunately, it was of no use. Her body started to heat up uncontrobly. When she saw the tall and strong bodyguards, she wanted to pounce on them!
Li Jing was a strong-willed person. She could have endured it, but she didnt want to control herself in this kind of situation.
She indulged herself, so the injuries on her body worsened, and her whole body became weaker.
After that, Jing Xi often came to visit Li Jing for more than half a month.
In the end, Li Jing was so frightened that her face would turn pale at the mere mention of Jing Xis name.
She used to think that she was cruel enough, butpared to Jing Xi, she was simply too kind!
When she killed someone, she would at least give them a quick and painless death. But Jing Xi was cutting the flesh with a blunt knife, and it would not hurt their lives at all!
Li Jing had been in the hospital for a long time, but the injuries caused by Jing Rui had not recovered. Instead, they had worsened.
She didnt dare to stay in A city anymore. She used her private jet and went abroad to recuperate.
Finally, Li Jing had been driven away. Jing Xi felt much more rxed.
She wore a custom-made suit every day and went to work from nine to five.
After that, she had dealt with almost all of the people in Liyu Science & Technology. No one dared to look down on her anymore.
Lou ruofeis wedding was on the 19th of November.
Luo Feiyang had told Jing Xi in advance that she had to go to the United States to attend his brothers wedding.
Jing Xi had gone with Ji moxuan.
Ji moxuan was very happy to be able to travel with Jing Xi. He took care of Jing Xi in every way possible and was very considerate.
If it was an ordinary girl, being taken care of by a handsome and gentle big boy often, she would definitely be tempted.
But Jing Xi did not.
She knew that Ji moxuan wasnt only good to her. He was just like that-very warm, very soft-hearted, and very gentlemanly.
Such a person could be a good friend, but he was not suitable to be a boyfriend.
Jing Xi was a domineering person. She couldnt stand her boyfriend taking care of other girls with a warm smile every day, and she couldnt stand her boyfriend having an affair with his ex-girlfriend.
Therefore, she had always maintained an appropriate distance from Ji moxuan. She would never say anything that would cause him to misunderstand, nor would she do anything that would cause him to misunderstand. She had clearly told Ji moxuan that they were just friends.
Ji moxuan was not discouraged. He stayed by Jing Xis side as a friend, and it felt good.
He and Jing Xi had a good time together. They had manymon views and shared manymon topics, so they could be considered close friends.
They had arrived a day earlier. The Luo family had arranged a five-star hotel for the guests to stay in temporarily.
Luo Feiyang personally went to the airport to pick up Jing Xi and Ji moxuan to the hotel. When the three of them got out of the car and walked into the hotel, they happened to meet Lou Ziling, who was also walking into the hotel with the guests from the Lou family.
Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan were stunned at the same time. They looked at Lou Ziling and then at Jing Xi.
Jing Xi, however, did not seem to notice Lou Ziling. Her expression did not change, and she still had a faint smile on her face. Even the pace of her steps did not change, and she walked unhurriedly into the hotel.
Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan looked at each other and quickly followed.
Lou Ziling stood there for a long time without moving.
It turned out that one day, she could also be so unfamiliar with him.
It was as if he had never known her, as if she had never appeared in his life.
She had always been a Princess, always had been.
If it wasnt for a coincidence, he wouldnt even be qualified to be the princesss guard.
Lou Ziling had already known about Jing Xis n to punish Li Jing.
Because Li Jing hade to him several times in a fluster, asking him to find Jing Xi andfort her so that she wouldnt torment her again.
However, Lou Ziling knew that he was in no position to look for Jing Xi.
Whats more, Jing Xi could only me Li Jing for being too cruel to her. Lou Ziling would never plead for Li Jing.
Jing Xi was still the same as before, unwilling to suffer any losses. She was mischievous and lived a carefree life.
On the other hand, Lou Ziling was even more withdrawn and didnt like to talk.
A 15 or 16-year-old girl beside Lou Ziling looked at him carefully and said,Cou Cousin, shouldnt we Go in?
A middle-aged woman behind the little girl said in a more cautious voice,Ziling, do you know those people?
Lou Ziling came back to her senses. She didnt say whether she knew him or not. She said indifferently,Stay here for the next few days. My mom will be here soon.
The middle-aged woman heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that tan Zhen woulde.
She felt really ufortable in front of this nephew of hers. She did not know why, but she kept feeling especially pressured and did not dare to speak easily.
She held her daughters hand and followed Lou Ziling into the Grand five-star hotel.
The little girl was very obedient. She didnt look around when she entered the hotel and followed her mother and cousin in silence.
Lou Ziling brought them into the room and gave the door card to the middle-aged woman.If you need anything, you can tell me.
Lou Zilings voice was cold, like an emotionless robot.
His uncle had passed away a few years ago. His aunt, Wang Qiu, and his cousin, tan Ruyi, had only been relying on each other and had never remarried.
Tan Ruyi was tan Zhens only niece. She had always doted on her and often asked Lou Ziling to send things to the mother and daughter.
Although Lou Ziling had met her aunt and cousin many times, the words they had spoken could be counted with ones fingers.
Wang Qiu and tan Ruyi could not get close to Lou Ziling either. They were only close to tan Zhen. They were so afraid of Lou Ziling that they would not say anything.
After Lou Ziling left, tan Ruyi pulled on Wang Qius sleeve and whispered with a pale face,Mom, does cousin have a soul?
Chapter 1501
Chapter 1501: Within reach
Trantor: 549690339
Wang Qiu knew that her daughter meant that Lou Ziling was too inhumane.
Dont talk nonsense, she reprimanded her daughter.Hes your cousin. How could he not have a soul?
Tan Ruyi was unconvinced.But everyone has their own emotions. Cousin doesn t! She said. Ive never seen him smile, nor have I seen him cry. I feel that if this goes on, whoever bes my cousin-inw in the future will be very pitiful.
She didnt think that Lou Ziling couldnt get a wife. After all, Lou Ziling was young and sessful. She ran a bigpany and was almost perfect. She was extremely handsome.
Your cousin is a man. Even if theres something sad, can he cry in front of us? Ziling is so outstanding. Your future cousin-inw will only be blessed. How can she be pitiful?
Even though Wang Qiu said that, she also felt that Lou Zilings personality was not likable. Girls needed warmth and care. No woman could stand being cold all the time.
At noon, Wang Qiu took tan Ruyi to the hotels restaurant for a buffet and happened to meet Jing Xi.
When tan Ruyi was facing Lou Ziling, she was hesitant. However, when she saw a girl of the same age, she was not as hesitant as before.
She didnt know Jing Xis identity and only thought that Jing Xi was an ordinary girl. She went up to her and said,Youre so good-looking. I dont think anyone is more beautiful than you!
Jing Xi was used to being praised by others. She smiled at tan Ruyi and said politely,Youre also very good looking!
She remembered the girl who stood beside Lou Ziling yesterday.
Tan Ruyi shook her head anxiously.No, no, no! Im serious! Youre really pretty, I cantpare to you!
Whats your name? Jing Xiughed.
My name is tan Ruyi, Im sixteen this year! Shes in her second year of high school now, and shes here to attend my cousins wedding!
Wasnt this girl a little too straightforward?
She had only asked what her name was, and tan Ruyi had told her almost everything. She was so innocent that she could be easily deceived.
Jing Xi shook her head helplessly. She had already guessed tan Ruyis identity.
Tan Ruyi picked up some food and followed Jing Xi.Do you know my cousin?
Jing Xi looked at her in surprise. She didnt talk to Lou Ziling yesterday, and Lou Ziling wouldnt have mentioned her to anyone. This girl could tell that they knew each other. She was very smart.
You mean Lou Ziling?
Oh, oh, right, right, thats him, hes my cousin! Lou ruofei is my cousin. Shes getting married tomorrow, and Im here to be her bridesmaid!
Jing Xi hadnt met such an innocent and straightforward girl in a long time. She didnt need to guard against tan Ruyi or use her brain when talking to her.
How do you know that I know your cousin? she asked with a smile.
Aiya, you dont know. After you left, my cousin was staring at your back in a daze! My cousin is really scary. I always suspect that hes a zombie without a soul. It was only when I saw you that he looked like a human. Do you think you knew each other in your previous life?
Zombie?
Previous life?
Did this girl watch too many TV shows?
Jing Xiughed so hard that she couldnt even hold her te. If Lou Ziling knew that her cousin suspected him of being a zombie, would she be so angry that her face turned green?
She didnt think Lou Ziling was scary, but she was cold.
However, how could Lou Ziling still stare at her back in a daze?
Jing Xi thought it was unlikely.
Wang Qiu was picking up some food when she turned around and saw her daughter chattering away with the little girl she met yesterday. She quickly walked over and pulled her daughter away.
As a mother, she knew that tan Ruyi was as simple as a piece of white paper. She protected her daughter too well. She always thought that everyone was a good person except Lou Ziling.
She wasnt worried that Jing Xi would lie to tan Ruyi, but she was worried that tan Ruyi would speak without thinking and offend people.
After tan Ruyi left, Jing Xi brought the food to Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyangs table and sat down.
Both of them saw Jing Xi talking to tan Ruyi, but they didnt go up to her or ask anything.
Luo Feiyang was onlyining.I told you to go to my familys restaurant. You guys didnt agree. Whats so good about this buffet?!
Your brother is getting married tomorrow. Youd better go home and help!
Jing Xi urged him to leave, but Luo Feiyang didnt want to.My brother is getting married, not me. Whats there to be busy with? Im just a best man, so dont steal my brothers limelight tomorrow, or hell definitely beat me to death!
Jing Xi smiled and pointed at tan Ruyi, who was eating not far away.Look, that girl is the bridesmaid. What a coincidence!
Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan turned their heads at the same time.
Really?
Luo Feiyang knew that the maid of honor was his sister-inws cousin, but he had never seen her before. He did not expect to see her twice today.
My sister-inw is so elegant and generous, why is her cousin like a bean sprout? Yesterday, she stood beside Lou Ziling. I thought she was a child who had been kidnapped!
Luo Feiyang actually hoped that Jing Xi could be the bridesmaid, but the rtionship between the Lou family and the Jing family had been broken up by Lou Ziling. The bride couldnt invite Jing Xi to be her bridesmaid. Moreover, Jing Xis status was too high, and the Jing family wouldnt easily agree to Jing Xi being someone elses bridesmaid.
When Jing Xi heard Lou Zilings name, her heart skipped a beat, but she quickly suppressed it.
There was nothing she couldnt do. It should be easy to forget a person, shouldnt it?
The next day, Jing Xi and Ji moxuan went to the wedding together.
The Western wedding was sacred and solemn, but Jing Xi was a little distracted.
She didnt know who had arranged the seat for her, but Lou Ziling was sitting next to her.
Luo feimeng and Lou ruofeis wedding had nothing to do with Jing Xi. It was normal for her to note.
However, she came because she knew that she could see Lou Ziling here.
She just wanted to look at him. She didnt want to talk to him, nor did she want to be so close to him.
Lou Ziling did not expect to sit with Jing Xi. He should have been sitting in the front row, but Lou Mingyang was still angry with him and refused to let him sit in front.
He was so close to her, but they seemed so far away.
Lou Ziling couldnt help but turn to look at Jing Xi. Her eyes were half-closed, and her long eyshes were slightly upturned. Her expression was calm and steady, and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
Her long hair was draped over her shoulders. It wasnt permed and had a natural luster. Her skin was white and glowing like jade. She was so beautiful that not a single speck of dust could stain her.
Lou Ziling even remembered the faint fragrance on her body. It was sweet and refreshing, which made people lose themselves in it.
Even he himself did not know when the girl beside him had been imprinted in his mind.
Even if he closed his eyes, he could still outline her entire body.

Chapter 1502: The thief
Trantor: 549690339
The wedding went smoothly. The couple made their vows, and many people were moved to tears. However, Jing Xi felt a little ufortable under Lou Zilings gaze.
In the past, she would have been happy to see Lou Ziling. But now, she was very angry.
Lou Ziling and Li Zhi had been intimately interviewed by the reporters and they had shown off their love in front of everyone. Now, she was even looking at her shamelessly. If not for the inappropriate asion, she might have beaten Lou Ziling up.
After the wedding, Jing Xi got up and left with Ji moxuan.
Lou Ziling looked at their backs and couldnt help frowning. Could Jing Xi be with Ji moxuan?
He still felt that Jing Xi was too young to be in love.
At sixteen years old, did she know how to protect herself in front of the opposite sex?
She couldnt have been deceived by the boys flowery words, right?
Tan Ruyi stood beside Lou Ziling and looked at him carefully. When she saw that most of the people around had left, she reminded him,Cousin, shouldnt we go back to the hotel?
Tan Zhen also walked to his side and reminded him,Ziling, take your cousin and aunt to the hotel. Its not easy for them toe to the United States. Take them out tomorrow to have some fun.
I dont have time tomorrow, Lou Ziling refused tly.
Other than Jing Xi, he had never gone out with anyone else.
It was not just a matter of time. He did not have the patience to go shopping with two women.
In fact, tan Zhen had expected her son to reject her. She had originally nned to bring her sister-inw and niece out to y. She was only testing the waters just now.
She had raised her son, but Lou Ziling had never gone shopping with her.
Lou Ziling was a loner and didnt like to socialize with others. Tan Zhen was very happy to see her daughter getting married today. She hoped that her son could get married soon and settle down.
She didnt know that Lou Ziling and her ex-girlfriends were only in name. She thought that her son was a yboy and merciless when he dumped her.
Tan Zhen was afraid that Lou Zilings reputation of being a yboy would spread and no good girl would want to marry him in the future.
She was a very conservative person. She had only been in love with Lou Mingyang in her life. She had never had any physical contact before marriage. So, she had always taught her daughter and son this way.
Lou ruofei was very obedient. She only showed any signs of intimacy after she was engaged to Luo feimeng. But Lou Ziling Tan Zhen was not sure if her son had listened to her teachings.
Lou Ziling refused to go shopping with her aunt and cousin, but she didnt refuse to send them back to the hotel.
In the hotel lobby, they met Luo Feiyang, who had sent Jing Xi back to the hotel.
As soon as tan Ruyi saw Luo Feiyang, she immediately shrank back, looking afraid of him.
Luo Feiyang red at her and grabbed tan Ruyis cor, revealing arge area of her skin.
Tan Ruyi clutched her chest and screamed in fear. Her decibel was so high that it could almost burst her eardrums!
Lou Ziling pushed Luo Feiyang away and stood in front of tan Ruyi. She said coldly,Luo Feiyang, what do you mean by this!
What do you mean by me? Your little cousin sister is so capable that she dared to steal my things. Cant I take it back?
As soon as Luo Feiyang finished speaking, tan Ruyi immediately shouted,I didnt steal it! Youre talking nonsense!
Lou Ziling didnt think that tan Ruyi would steal anything. Although her Uncle Tan Yan was no longer around, Wang Qiu and tan Ruyi were not short of money.
Tan Zhen often gave them money and things, and tan Yan also left them a lot of inheritance. Wang Qiu also ran a teahouse of his own, and his business was quite good.
However, Wang Qiu lived a frugal life, and tan Ruyi had been sensible since she was young, so they had never spent money unnecessarily, so the two of them had always been dressed in in clothes.
At this moment, Wang Qius expression was not too good. However, she did not say anything. Instead, she let her daughter settle these small matters on her own.
In the past, she had always felt that since her daughter had lost her father, she would shelter her from the wind and rain everywhere. She was afraid that her daughter would be bullied and would always shield her from all the bad things.
However, she now realized that although her daughter was very smart, she was verycking in the ways of the world. She always felt that there were good people in the world and that there were no schemes.
She was afraid that her daughter would be deceived in the future, so she had already consciously allowed her toe into contact with the dark side of society.
Im not talking nonsense. Someone saw you take my things with their own eyes. How dare you quibble?
Luo Feiyangs face turned red with anger. He had only yelled at tan Ruyi at the wedding, but he did not expect her to steal things to take revenge on him!
Give me back my stuff, or Ill send you to the police station!
Tan Ruyi was so anxious that she was about to cry. She looked at Wang Qiu for help.Mom, I didnt steal anything. Why would I do such a thing? Quickly help me!
Wang Qiu was actually more anxious than her daughter, but she felt that this was a good time to train her daughter. In the future, if her daughter could not even clear up such a small misunderstanding, how could she solve some major problems?
She suppressed the urge to question Luo Feiyang and said gently,Cant you just exin it to her yourself? I cant help you with this.
But tan Ruyis mind was nk. She didnt know what to say to Luo Feiyang. She could only say,I didnt steal anything from you.
Luo Feiyang was so angry that he kept shouting,give me back my things.
Jing Xi and Ji moxuan waited for Luo Feiyang upstairs for a long time, but he didnt go up to deliver the room card. They had toe down and saw him arguing with tan Ruyi in the lobby with red faces.
Jing Xi ignored Lou Ziling and asked,Feiyang, whats going on?
When Luo Feiyang saw Jing Xi, his face turned even uglier. He had prepared for a long time to give the thing that tan Ruyi had stolen to Jing Xi.
Now that Jing Xi knew that this gift had been stolen by someone else, she would definitely not want it.
But he had to say it. It was fine if his ordinary little things had been stolen, but the gift he had given Jing Xi was worth millions. He had to get it back.
Lou Zilings cousin is a thief. She stole my things and refuses to admit it!
Tan Ruyi was already in tears.I didnt steal it! Ive never stolen from anyone! Its fine that you yelled at me at the wedding, but now youre framing me. Youre not a good person!
She had always been a good girl with good character and academic results, but this was the first time she had been called a thief. She was angry and sad.
Jing Xi nced at tan Ruyi. This girl was a nk sheet of paper and didnt look like someone who would steal.
What did she steal from you? How can you be sure that she stole it?
Hearing Jing Xis words, tan Ruyi finally came back to her senses. Right, she didnt even know what she had stolen!
I bought a big pink diamond ring. I was nning to give it to you after my brothers wedding, but the ring disappeared after the wedding. All thats left is an empty box! Luo Feiyang said angrily.
Chapter 1503
Chapter 1503: Physical evidence
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi shook her head helplessly. She was actually involved in this matter.
If Luo Feiyang gave her a pack of food, she would definitely ept it. But if he gave her a diamond ring, how could she ept it?
However, this wasnt the time to think about this. It wouldnt be toote for her to reject the gift after this matter was over.
The ring is gone, but that doesnt prove that tan Ruyi stole it, right?
Hearing Jing Xi speak to her, tan Ruyi was extremely grateful. She shook her head desperately.It wasnt me, it wasnt me, it really wasnt me! I didnt steal your ring!
Even Ji moxuan, who was standing at the side, felt that tan Ruyi was the kind of simple girl who could be seen through with one look. She did not seem to be lying at all.
Why isnt it you?
Luo Feiyang snorted.Youre the only one who saw me take it out of my pocket. Youre the only one who knew that I put the ring in my bag. If you didnt steal it, who else would?!
Tan Ruyi felt that someone was helping her, so she finally stopped panicking. Her thoughts gradually returned to normal.I saw your ring, but its possible that someone else saw it too and took it away. I dont care about your ring!
Tan Ruyi and Luo Feiyang were the bridesmaids and best men of the wedding. The two of them had been sitting together in their gowns. When Luo Feiyang took out the ring from his pocket, tan Ruyi thought that it was the pair ring that the bride and groom would exchange at the wedding, so she went over to take a look.
In the end, she was yelled at by Luo Feiyang. Only then did she know that it was Luo Feiyangs own.
As for where Luo Feiyang had put the ring, tan Ruyi really did not notice.
It was her first time attending such a grand wedding, and it was the wedding of her cousin who loved her so much. She was so excited that she didnt care about Luo Feiyangs ring!
I have a few witnesses here. They all saw you touch my bag! Youre the one who took it, no one else touched it! Otherwise, if you let me search you, the ring will definitely still be on you!
Tan Ruyi was about to die from anger. She felt wronged enough to be used of stealing, and now they had to search her body. This was simply too much!
She couldnt win against Luo Feiyang, but she knew that the Luo family was rich and powerful. She couldnt go against Luo Feiyang by herself.
Cousin, I wont search you. I want to go home!
Tan Ruyi raised her red eyes and looked at the tall Lou Ziling with grievance.
She had always felt that although this cousin of hers was cold and didnt like to talk, he was the smartest. In her heart, he was almost invincible.
In this case, she felt that asking Lou Ziling for help was the best choice.
Lou Zilings attention had been on Jing Xi since she appeared. He only came back to his senses when he heard tan Ruyis voice.
Aunt, bring cousin back to her room to rest. Leave this to me.
No, they cant leave!
Luo Feiyang looked at Lou Ziling angrily and said,Thats my gift to Xixi. Youre so protective of your cousin because you dont want me to give the gift to her? Dont you already have a girlfriend? Stop thinking about Xixi!
Lou Ziling looked at him coldly and said in a bad tone,Take out the evidence and then frame others. Otherwise, youll only appear very stupid!
Good, good, good! Since your attitudes are so bad and arrogant, I might as well call the police! Dont me me for not giving my rtives any face!
Lou Zilings indifferent attitude made Luo Feiyang vomit blood.Report!
No! Jing Xi disagreed.You cant call the police!
Lou Ziling turned to look at her. They only met eyes for a moment, and the coldness around her melted.
Perhaps he had been used to indulging her. Now, no matter what Jing Xi said, he would almost not refute it and would let her do as she wished.
Lou Ziling didnt argue with Luo Feiyang anymore. He brought Wang Qiu and tan Ruyi into the elevator and sent them back to their rooms.
Luo Feiyang wanted to catch up, but Jing Xi stopped him.Feiyang, there must be a misunderstanding. Go back and check again!
Jing Xis Feiyang made half of Luo Feiyangs body go limp. He couldnt help nodding.Alright, alright, Ill check again!
Luo Feiyang had only said that he would call the police. In reality, it was impossible for him to call the police.
She was Lou Zilings cousin, and also his sister-inw, Lou ruofeis cousin. If he called the police, Lou ruofei would definitely be involved. Not to mention Luo feilue, even his parents would not agree to make a big deal out of this.
However, that huge diamond was a birthday gift Luo Feiyang had received on his 18th birthday. He had found someone to make it into a diamond ring with the word LOVE engraved on it. It was a very meaningful ring.
He had to get it back.
Since he couldnt get it back openly, he could only do it secretly.
As for further investigation, Luo Feiyang felt that there was no need to do so, because a few people said that they saw tan Ruyi stealing his things.
In the middle of the night, Luo Feiyang sneaked into the room where tan Ruyi and Wang Qiu were staying.
However, as soon as he climbed in through the window, a piercing scream pierced the sky. Luo Feiyang was so frightened that he almost jumped out of the window again!
Shut up! What should I call it? Im here to get my ring, stop screaming! If you scream again, Ill kill you!
Luo Feiyang felt that tan Ruyis voice was too loud. The ss of the hotel seemed to be shattering.
If this person practiced the legendary lions roar, he would definitely be invincible!
Luo Feiyang had only wanted to scare tan Ruyi. He definitely wouldnt take her life, but tan Ruyi believed him and screamed even louder.
Wang Qiu had already turned on the lights in the room. He stood in front of his daughter and stared at Luo Feiyang carefully.My daughter has been obedient since she was young and has never had the habit of stealing. Your ring is not with my daughter, please leave!
Jing Xis room was diagonally opposite tan Ruyis room. Hearing her scream, he knocked on the door.Ruyi, what happened?
Tan Ruyi jumped out of bed barefooted and ran to open the door.
Although she had only spent a short time with Jing Xi, she still trusted her very much. She felt that Jing Xi was a good person and a very mysterious person who could move Lou Ziling and control Luo Feiyang.
Jing Xi walked in and saw Luo Feiyang in a ck sports suit. She didnt know whether tough or cry.Why are you in her room? are you a Night Walker? he asked.
Luo Feiyang was caught by Jing Xi on the spot for breaking into the little girls room at night. At first, he felt guilty, but soon he felt that he was in the right.She stole my things and didnt return them, so I had to steal them back! If it wasnt for you, I would have called the police. She should be having tea in the police station now!
As he spoke, he grabbed tan Ruyis Red bag hanging on the hanger, unzipped it, and poured out everything in her bag.
A dazzling pink diamond ring fell out of it.
Chapter 1504
Chapter 1504: Shes not feeling well, go take a look
Trantor: 549690339
Tan Ruyi was stunned!
She knew very well what was in her bag. That diamond ring the size of a pigeons egg did not belong to her at all!
Jing Xi and Wang Qiu were also a little stunned. Such a big diamond obviously could not belong to tan Ruyi.
Luo Feiyang was already hopping mad.
Yesterday, he actually suspected that he had misunderstood tan Ruyi. After all, sometimes, ones innocence could not be faked. Tan Ruyi looked like a simple person and did not know how to hide herself. If there were no witnesses, Luo Feiyang would not suspect her at all.
Tan Ruyi, exin to me clearly, What is this? How did my things get into your bag?
Luo Feiyang picked up the ring and put the beautiful diamond in front of tan Ruyi. He questioned her angrily.
He was furious. The diamond symbolized pure and eternal love, but this ring had been stolen or even worn by someone else. It would be disrespectful to give it to Jing Xi.
Luo Feiyang only had one of such a big diamond.
His pocket money was very limited, and he had no spare money to buy a diamond.
If tan Ruyi was not a girl, Luo Feiyang would have hit her.
Tan Ruyi exined incoherently,no, no, no. I dont know how it got into my bag. I didnt take it! Whats the point of me stealing your ring? Im still so young, I dont need to get married!
Her face was a little pale and her forehead was sweating. She looked like a frightened deer.
Wang Qiu felt that the matter was a little too serious. Her daughter could not exin it clearly, but she believed that her daughter would not steal anything.
She had no choice but to call Lou Ziling. After ten minutes, Lou Ziling arrived.
The first thing Lou Ziling saw when he entered the room was Jing Xi.
Jing Xi happened to raise her head and look at the door.
The two peoples eyes met in the air, but it was only for a moment, and then they separated again.
Whats going on?
Luo Feiyang waved the ring in front of his eyes and said,I found it in your cousins bag!
Cousin, I didnt take it! I dont know whats going on either!
Tan Ruyis face was still pale, but she was able to keep calm. She believed that Lou Ziling would not let her be wronged.
You didnt take it. Did my ring grow legs and run into your bag?!
Luo Feiyang felt that tan Ruyi was too good at pretending. She still refused to admit it even after being caught. His impression of tan Ruyi had already dropped to the lowest point.
It could also be someone else who put it in the Ruyi bag, Lou Ziling said indifferently.
Lou Ziling, even if you side with your cousin, you should have a limit! Its her first timeing to my house. No one knows her, and theres no enmity between us. Who would frame her like this? Are you guys paranoid? A few people saw her touch my bag!
Who are the witnesses?
Were all reliable friends! You dont need to suspect them, they dont need to frame you!
Ruyi isnt that stupid to put something in her bag after stealing it and wait for you to find it. Youd better go back and check on those reliable friends of yours. Their goal is definitely not Ruyi.
Jing Xi listened quietly and suddenly felt that Lou Zilings suspicion made sense.
When tan Ruyi saw the ring earlier, her shocked expression did not seem to be fake. It was very likely that someone had really put it in her bag.
However, she did not understand who would harm tan Ruyi.
Among the people who attended the wedding, few knew tan Ruyi. She didnt have much value. There might be another conspiracy behind this.
However, no matter how she looked at it, this conspiracy had nothing to do with the Jing family. Jing Xi instinctively felt that this matter was directed at the Lou family.
But she didnt say anything, because the man standing in front of her no longer had anything to do with her.
He had even stood on the opposite side of her. Lou family no longer cooperated with family Jing, nor was Lou family willing to be affiliated with family Jing. Lou family had started to cooperate with Li Jing and expanded their power ten times faster.
Both Jing Yichen and Jing Rui wanted to destroy the Lou family before they became powerful. It was she who had given Lou Ziling a way out.
Jing Xi only hoped that Lou Ziling would not make her regret her decision in the future.
If he dared to join forces with Li Jing to deal with family Jing in the future, she would definitely fight him with her own hands.
Jing Xi had never thought that she would end up like this with Lou Ziling. She had never understood why he did not ept her.
Was it because she was too young?
Perhaps, she would never have the chance to ask him why.
She didnt want to ask.
Time could calm everything, and she could always forget him.
However, Lou Ziling would not have an easy time if she was tortured like this!
He had chosen to die alone, so she would fulfill his wish!
Jing Xi had already forgotten about the diamond ring. Luo Feiyang couldnt do anything to tan Ruyi anyway. He looked arrogant and domineering, but he was actually soft-hearted and wouldnt force people to a dead end.
Lou Ziling was the only one who was cold-hearted and willing to sacrifice everything for his own benefit.
Jing Xi suddenlyughed at herself. Why didnt she realize this before? Didnt he get close to her and protect her so that family Jing could support family Louspany, which was in danger?
Now that the Lou familyspany had regained its vitality, he couldnt wait to kick her away.
Jing Xis heart felt as if it had been crushed by a heavy object. It was painful and stuffy, and she could not breathe.
She lowered her eyes and hid all her emotions. She walked out of tan Ruyis room with a pale face.
Luo Feiyang was so engrossed in his fierce argument with tan Ruyi that he didnt notice that Jing Xi had left.
Lou Zilings mind was on Jing Xi. He saw that her face was turning pale and wanted to chase after her, but he only took half a step before he stopped.
Luo Feiyang, Jing Xi has left. Shes not feeling well. Go and take a look. Dont let anything happen to her!
Luo Feiyang turned his head around and shouted,Why dont you go? what right do you have to order me around?!
After he finished speaking, he realized that Lou Ziling was referring to Jing Xis difort. He put the ring in his pocket and immediately went after Jing Xi.
Jing Xi had already entered her room when Luo Feiyang knocked on her door.Xixi, whats wrong? Are you alright?
Jing Xis calm voice came from inside.Its fine, Im going to rest. You can go home!
Luo Feiyang looked at his watch. It was already 1:30 in the morning. It was time to rest.
When he saw Lou Zilinging out of tan Ruyis room, Luo Feiyang red at him and asked him in a low voice,Xixis fine. Where do you feel ufortable? Youre just trying to distract me so that your cousin can get away!
Lou Ziling frowned. He had clearly seen Jing Xis pale face. How could she be fine?
He was a little annoyed by Luo Feiyangs inattentiveness. After thinking for a moment, he turned around and left.

Seeing Lou Ziling leave without a word, Luo Feiyang couldnt help but chase after him and entered the same elevator as him.
Hey, since you said that Xixi isnt feeling well, why dont you go ask her yourself? Is there a conspiracy?
Lou Ziling didnt bother to respond to him and just stood there coldly.
Luo Feiyang saw that he didnt say anything and suddenly said,Lou Ziling, you like Xixi, right?
Youre thinking too much!
Im not thinking too much! Who hasnt been in love before? Im very clear on how youll react when you like someone. There are some details that you cant hide no matter how hard you try!
In fact, Luo Feiyang did not really notice any details. He just had a vague feeling that Lou Ziling treated Jing Xi differently.
Jing Xi was already used to Lou Zilings indulgence. She didnt realize that Lou Ziling didnt treat other people the same way.
But Luo Feiyang noticed.
Lou Ziling had had so many girlfriends, but all of them added together were not as important as a single strand of Jing Xis hair.
Lou Ziling, Luo Feiyang said seriously,of course, I hope you dontpete with me. But if you really like her, youll regret itter.
He took out the ring, touched the bright diamond, and said with some annoyance,I cant give her the present. Do you know what she likes? If you tell me, I wont pursue the matter of your cousin stealing my ring!
The elevator reached the hotel lobby. The door opened and Lou Ziling walked out. His cold voice drifted into Luo Feiyangs ears.Blueberry.
Luo Feiyang also walked out of the elevator. He stared at Lou Zilings back and mumbled,Really? youre not scamming me again, are you? This gift was too degrading! We can keep the diamonds, but we cant keep the blueberries!
It waste at night. Lou Ziling left the hotel. An hourter, she returned.
He entered the room through a half-opened window.
Jing Xiy quietly in bed, fast asleep.
Lou Ziling walked to her side silently and sat on her bed.
The bed was very big, making her look a little petite.
The moonlight shone through the window and onto her face. Her long eyshes cast a small shadow on her face, making her look a little cute.
Her breathing was even, and her pale face had regained its color. She looked normal.
Lou Ziling held her wrist gently and checked her pulse.
After a while, Lou Ziling found that her pulse was beating faster and faster. He was shocked and looked up at Jing Xis face.
Jing Xi, who had been asleep, had opened her eyes and was looking at him.
Lou Ziling panicked for a moment when she saw Jing Xis clear eyes.
He didnt know how to exin why he was here sote.
He didnt expect Jing Xi to be so sensitive that she would wake up with a light touch.
Jing Xi calmly retracted her hand and asked,You want to kill me? This is a foreign country and my parents and brother are not here. It is indeed a good ce to kill me.
Lou Ziling couldnt help but frown. She was even a little angry.Why should I kill you?
Maybe he would kill in the future, or maybe he would be an executioner if he was forced into a corner, but he would never touch Jing Xi!
Jing Xi sat up slowly and said coldly,Im of no use to you anyway, and your girlfriend is half-dead because of me. You can kill me to avenge her.
When she wasnt smiling, she exuded a cold and Noble aura that kept people away,pletely different from her usual lively and cheerful self.
What nonsense are you talking about? Where did you get the idea that I want your life? Where did you get the idea that Im using you?
Lou Ziling had always had a bad temper. He had used up all his patience on Jing Xi.
He had never thought of marrying Jing Xi, but he had never wanted her to hate him!
His tone was a little cold and his voice was a little loud. Jing Xi stared at him, her eyes a little red. Youre lecturing me? Youre not qualified!
She got off the bed and dragged Lou Ziling out by his sleeve.Get lost! Dont let me see you again!
Lou Ziling couldnt just leave before the misunderstanding was cleared up. He took advantage of his height and pressed Jing Xi against the door.Ill leave, but you have to erase all those thoughts from your mind!
His voice subconsciously lowered.When did I teach you a lesson? dont always think of me in a bad way.
Jing Xis body was so soft that Lou Ziling had wrapped his arms around her waist. He was reluctant to let go, as if he had been poisoned.
Jing Xi kicked him and punched him. She was furious.Youre shameless, youre not a good person to begin with! Stay away from me and dont touch me. If you dare to hurt me, my dad and brother will not let you off!
Lou Zilings heart was about to overflow with some kind of emotion. He suppressed it very painfully and let Jing Xi hit him.
He would rather Jing Xi be angry with him, or hit him, than see her acting as if she didnt know him every time she saw him.
He had always thought that if he kept Jing Xi away from him, he would forget everything.
Unfortunately, he didn t. Perhaps Jing Xi was the only one who had forgotten him, but deep in his heart, he had never forgotten him.
Luo Feiyang said that he would regret it in the future. However, there was no need to say in the future. He was already regretting it.
Lou Ziling hated herself for not being strong enough!
He didnt want to be a vassal of family Jing, and he didnt want to live without dignity.
However, was dignity more important than Jing Xi?
In the past, Lou Ziling would have answered yes without hesitation. But now, he hesitated.
Jing Xi was still crying and scolding him. Lou Ziling was not good at coaxing her, so he said softly,Xixi, I may not be a good person, but I cant kill you, nor will I hurt you.
He didnt know why Jing Xi would think this way, but he couldnt stand being misunderstood by Jing Xi.
Did she know that he could not even bear to touch her?!
She was 16 years old and was well developed. She had a full chest, a slender waist, and long legs. She was full of the aura of a young girl.
Did she really think that he was a rock?
He was an adult man, a normal man with desires!
He had always been afraid of scaring her, so he had never shown any ws in front of her!
Jing Xi was tired of scolding and beating Lou Ziling, but she couldnt push him away. She leaned on Lou Ziling, feeling his heartbeat and smelling his familiar scent. She felt her heart break.
She wiped her tears and asked in a mocking tone,You hug other girls like this too, right?
She was jealous. Lou Ziling tightened his arms and held Jing Xi in his arms. He said in a low voice,No, I didn t, Ive never hugged anyone but you!
Chapter 1506
Chapter 1506: You want to two-time?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi wasnt sure if Lou Ziling was telling the truth, but at least she knew that Lou Ziling would not fall for a woman easily, and he would never have the patience to coax her.
The gentlest time she had seen him was when Lou ruofei was unconscious. When she was in a dangerous situation, he had apanied Lou ruofei and taken care of her.
If even her own sister was like this, other women could not expect Lou Ziling to treat them with care.
Of course, Jing Xi also considered herself as other women.
Let go and get out. I want to sleep! If you dont get out, Ill call the police!
Lou Ziling was afraid that if she hugged her for too long, her bodys reaction would be discovered. She immediately let go and stood sideways.
Youre sick?
Does it have anything to do with you? You came to my room in the middle of the night just to ask me if I was sick? Youre the one whos sick!
When Jing Xi became ruthless, she could choke him to death with one word. Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xi, who was full of thorns, and knew that she was in good health. Otherwise, she would not have had the strength to hit him just now.
Lou Ziling slowly let go of her hand.
Jing Xi immediately stepped back and opened the door. She said unhappily,Get out!
Lou Ziling realized that he had no reason to stay. For the first time in his life, he felt that it was not a good thing to be too quiet.
He had seen how Luo feicui coaxed Lou ruofei and how Lou Mingyang coaxed tan Zhen. However, he could not do those things.
Perhaps, he still felt that Jing Xi was still an underage child, and there was something in his heart that he could not get over.
Tan Ruyi was about the same age as Jing Xi, but she was obviously full of childishness and was ignorant of the world. She lived in a beautiful ivory tower and didnt even know that she had been plotted against.
Lou Ziling put away all her emotions and returned to her usual cold expression. She walked out of Jing Xis room.
He heard the sound of the door closing behind him. It seemed that Jing Xi had closed the door that led to her.
He smiled bitterly and left the hotel, disappearing into the night.
But what Lou Ziling didnt know was that after he left, Jing Xis chest started to feel heavy again. She couldnt fall asleep no matter how hard shey there.
However, if she had the chance to do it again, she would still chase Lou Ziling away without hesitation.
She was confused by Lou Ziling. He used to reject her coldly and wanted her to disappear from this world. But now, he climbed through the window to see her in the middle of the night. He seemed to care about her.
What was the meaning of this?
You want to have a foot in two boats?
Thinking of Li Jing, Jing Xi was furious. She had not hit Lou Ziling hard just now, but now she regretted it. She should have hit him harder and broken his legs!
The next day, Li Jing called Lou Ziling at dawn.
President Lou, did you see Jing Xi yesterday?
Whats the matter?Lou Zilings voice was cold and alert.
Its nothing much. I just wanted to remind you that theres a use in our agreement that you cant have any intimate rtionship with Jing Xi!
I dont need you to remind me about this!
After a night, Lou Ziling had regained her senses.
He knew that he should not have gone to see Jing Xist night, but he was worried when he saw her pale face.
Im your girlfriend in name and your business partner. Of course, I have the obligation to remind you in case you make any mistakes. Besides, its your sisters wedding and you didnt even bring me along. This doesnt make sense!
Lou Ziling didnt have the patience to listen to her gossip. Seeing that she was going to continue, she hung up the phone.
He knew that Li Jing was recuperating in the United States and that she had fully recovered. However, he had never taken Li Jing seriously. It was even more impossible for him to bring her along to Lou ruofeis wedding.
If Lou Mingyang saw that Li Jing was there, he would really cut off their father-son rtionship and kick him out of the Lou family before he returned to the country.
After hanging up the phone, Lou Ziling ate his breakfast and went to the hotel to pick up Wang Qiu and her mother to go shopping with tan Zhen.
Standing in front of Wang Qiu and her mothers room, Lou Ziling subconsciously nced at Jing Xis room.
The door of her room was closed and there was no sound from inside. Lou Ziling was not sure if she was still there. The wedding was over and she should have returned to China by now.
He retracted his gaze and knocked on Wang Qiu and tan Ruyis door. Tan Ruyi lowered her head and whispered,Cousin, do you know Luo Feiyangs phone number? I want to exin to him that I really didnt steal the ring. I dont want to carry the reputation of a thief.
Her eyes were red and swollen like peaches. It was obvious that she had been crying the whole night.
Wang Qius expression did not look too good either. She felt that her daughter had been set up, but she had no idea who it was.
They were a widow and an orphan, and they were in an unfamiliar ce like United States they could not prove their innocence even if they were used of being thieves.
Wang Qiu had originally thought that after tan Ruyi graduated from high school, she would send her to the United States to study and broaden her horizons. With Lou ruofei as her cousin in the United States, tan Ruyi would have someone to rely on.
However, if the rtionship with the Luo family was strained, even if tan Ruyi went to Lou ruofei, she would be put in a difficult position by Luo Feiyang.
She was no longer in the mood to go shopping. She just wanted her daughter to clear her name and leave with a clean record. When she graduated from high school, she woulde to this University so that she would not be looked down upon by the Luo family.
Lou Ziling gave Luo Feiyangs number to tan Ruyi and asked her to exin to Luo Feiyang herself.
He always felt that this cousin of his was too innocent. She was the kind of person who would still count money for others after being sold. Regarding Luo Feiyangs matter, if tan Ruyi had been a little more careful, she would not have been so easily tricked.
It was difficult to find evidence now, and tan Ruyi would probably not be able to exin herself.
The person who had set her up had already erased all traces.
Lou Ziling didnt like Luo Feiyang, but he admired Luo Feiyangs open-mindedness and honesty.
Luo Feiyang almost never lied. He would speak his mind directly and never hide anything. Although he looked fierce to tan Ruyi, he did not hurt her at all. He also kept the matter under wraps. He did not even tell his parents and brother.
He subconsciously chose to protect a youngdys reputation and dignity. Even though he was certain that tan Ruyi had stolen the ring, he did not spread the news.
The heir of a big family like the Luo family might not seem to be in tune, but he still had the bearing of a noble young master deep down in his heart. He would never be muddled when it came to important matters.
Every time, Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan wished they could strangle each other to death. They would often trick each other, but they would always leave some leeway and would not really go to the extreme.
Lou Ziling deeply felt that her Foundation was still too shallow.
As he left the hotel, he ran into Jing Xi in the small square in front of the hotel. Standing next to Jing Xi was Li Jing, who had just spoken to Lou Ziling on the phone.
Chapter 1507
Chapter 1507: Being shot
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi looked rxed and even had a smile on her face, but Li Jing, who was two meters away from her, was on guard.
Lou Ziling had known Li Jing for a long time, but she had never seen her so cautious.
When Li Jing saw him, she immediately called out to him in a sweet voice,Ziling, are you here to pick me up? Ive been waiting for you. Didnt you say you would pick a dress with mest night?
Lou Ziling stood still, unmoved by her words. She only looked at Jing Xi.
He saw with his own eyes that the smile on Jing Xis face slowly disappeared, and her ruddy face gradually turned white.
Her slender figure stood in the cold wind, as if she would be blown away in the next moment.
Seeing that Lou Ziling didnt respond, Li Zhi smiled and walked to his side. She held his arm.Ziling, why are you wearing so little? didnt I buy you a coat? Remember to wear it next time!
She was clearly a mature woman of 28 years old, but her tone was like that of an 18-year-old girl, reproaching and acting coquettishly, as if she was immersed in love and was being doted on by her boyfriend.
Lou Ziling knew that Li Jing had done it on purpose.
Of course, she had never bought clothes for him. Even if she had, he would never wear them.
Jing Xis eyes fell on Li Zhis hand, which was holding Lou Zilings arm. Her face turned pale and her eyes turned red.
It was a pity that she couldnt beat Li Jing. Her brother Jing Rui had warned her many times not to fight Li Jing head-on. She used to be a very powerful killer and could kill people easily.
The cold wind blew on her body. Perhaps it was because she was wearing too little today, or perhaps it was because her heart was too cold, but she was shivering all over.
Lou Ziling was good at picking. She could beat any woman he picked, but this time it was Li Jing, a ruthless woman that even her brother was afraid of.
Lou Ziling let go of Li Jings hand and walked to Jing Xis side. He took off his suit and put it on Jing Xi. He only wore a thin white shirt. He got into his car and drove away.
Li Jing was so angry that she almost died. She had called Lou Ziling several times, but Lou Ziling didnt take her seriously.
Li Jing had never been afraid of anyone in her life, not even the powerful Jing Rui. But now, as long as she saw Jing Xi, she would feel her scalp go numb.
She called Lou Ziling because she wanted him to take her with him. That way, she would have some face and could stay away from Jing Xi.
She had really been tormented by Jing Xi!
Jing Xis ideas were endless and impossible to guard against, but her identity was special. Even if Li Jing wanted to kill her, she didnt dare to do it easily.
If Jing Xi died, the Jing family would definitely kill her, the culprit, at all costs.
Li Jing had never thought that Jing Xi would be so difficult to deal with.
Her original n was no longer working. Although she had used Jing Xi to meet Jing Rui, Jing Xi never yed by the rules. She liked Lou Ziling very much, but she gave up just like that!
Since the main actors didnt follow the script, Li Jing had no choice but to readjust her n.
Now that Lou Ziling had left, Li Jing was even more wary of Jing Xi. She was afraid that Jing Xi would throw something at her again.
Jing Xi wasnt li Jings match at all, but Jing Xi had done a lot of research on viruses and could always make Li Jing suffer.
Li Jing had already cursed Shuyin over and over again. The virus that Jing Xi had used to harm her must have been given by Shuyin!
Jing Xi walked toward Li Jing, step by step. Seeing Li Jing retreating, she sneered, took off Lou Zilings suit, and threw it at Li Jing.
Li Jing was shocked. She screamed and hurriedly blocked Lou Zilings clothes. She quickly fired a shot at Jing Xi.
The sound of the gunshot was unexpectedly light. Jing Xi looked down at her chest.
An anesthetic was inserted there.
A wave of dizziness hit her, and Jing Xis vision began to blur as her rationality began to fade.Old woman surnamed li, it seems that I didnt teach you enough of a lessonst time!
Li Jing was very clear about the effects of this kind of anesthetic. One dose could numb an elephant, let alone a little girl.
She had prepared this especially for Jing Xi.
Li Jing had been hesitating about whether to use it, but when Jing Xi threw the suit at her, she thought it was mixed with something disgusting, so she subconsciously fired a shot.
Although Jing Rui would be angry if she drugged Jing Xi, she could finally take revenge! Being tormented half to death by this little girl, she had been suppressing her anger all this time!
Li Jing looked at Jing Xi, who was on the verge of copsing, and a vicious smile broke out on her face.Youre still so stubborn at this time! Youll be at my mercy in a while, hahaha, youll be crying and begging me!
She looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. She stepped forward and pped Jing Xi, who was still trying to keep her consciousness, unconscious. She then dragged her into her car and left.
Li Jing thought that no one knew that she had taken Jing Xi away, but in a room on the sixth floor of the hotel, tan Ruyi was standing by the window and had clearly seen what had happened in the small square downstairs.
Tan Ruyi was frightened. Her face was paler than when Luo Feiyang had used her of being a thief.
Jing Xi had been speaking up for her, and she was very grateful to her. Seeing that she had been shot and dragged into the car, she didnt care about Luo Feiyang anymore. She called Lou Ziling with trembling fingers.
CousCousin, something happened!
Tan Ruyi sounded like she was about to cry. Lou Ziling thought that she was being bullied by Luo Feiyang again. Whats wrong?
Jing Xi Jing Xi She was shot!
Lou Zilings speeding car suddenly stopped. She said in a cold voice,What did you say?
Its true! Its the woman who was holding your arm. She shot Jing Xi! She had knocked Jing Xi out and dragged her away! Hes driving off!
Tan Ruyi was so scared that her words were already incoherent.Hurry up and save her. What if What if she dies?
She didnt know that Li Jing had used an anesthetic gun. She had only seen Li Jing pull out a gun and shoot at Jing Xi, thinking that Jing Xi was going to die.
Lou Zilings face turned pale instantly. Her hands on the steering wheel trembled slightly.Which direction did her car go?
Tan Ruyi couldnt tell North from South in the United States, nor did she know what the road was called, but she was very smart at the moment. She hurriedly said,
The car was driving in the opposite direction. There were two intersections, and the car turned right at the second intersection! Thest four digits of her license te number are 1211, but I didnt see the first letter clearly! Its a red Porsche!
Lou Ziling immediately turned around and drove as fast as she could to catch up with Li Jing.
He was a little surprised by tan Ruyis intelligence. He didnt expect her to be so meticulous and remember all the car information.
Ruyi, call Luo Feiyang and tell him what happened. Ask him to find out about this car immediately! Its best to intercept it!
Chapter 1508
Chapter 1508: Id rather be worse than a beast
Trantor: 549690339
Tan Ruyi responded and then called Luo Feiyang in a hurry.
Luo Feiyang, Im tan Ruyi!
When he heard that it was tan Ruyi who called him, Luo Feiyang was a little surprised. He thought that she was going to apologize to him and admit her mistake!
He didnt expect her next sentence to be something happened to Jing Xi!
When Luo Feiyang heard tan Ruyis story and Lou Zilings request, he did not hesitate for a second and said,Alright, Ill check immediately!
Thinking that Jing Xi might lose her life, Luo Feiyangs heart burned with anxiety. He mobilized all the forces he could mobilize to check Li Jings car.
Fortunately, Li Jings car was a very eye-catching red Porsche sports car, so it was easy to find. Luo Feiyangs men only spent a few minutes to determine the exact location of the car.
He told Lou Ziling the location and immediately drove over.
By the time Lou Ziling got the exact location, he was already very close to Li Jing. However, before he could catch up, Li Jings car had already driven into an exquisite vi.
Lou Zilings car couldnt get in, so he stopped in front of Li Jings Vi and called her.
But Li Jing didnt pick up after three tries.
In the vi, Li Jings cell phone rang again and again. She felt very strange. Why did Lou Zilinge so quickly?
No one had seen her take Jing Xi away!
Li Jing threw her phone away in frustration. She dragged Jing Xi out of the car and threw her on the living room floor.
The anesthetic had begun to take effect. Jing Xi didnt show any signs of waking up even after Li Jing had violently thrown her on the floor. She was as unconscious as a littlemb waiting to be ughtered.
Li Jing felt relieved to see Jing Xi like this. She didnt dare to kill Jing Xi, but it would be good to torture her and use her as bait for Jing Rui to do it.
The November weather was already bone-chilling, and Jing Xi was already wearing thin clothes. Li Jing poured a bucket of cold water on Jing Xi, and her face was already pale.
To Li Jings disappointment, the anesthetic was too strong. Jing Xi wouldnt wake up even if cold water was poured on her. This made it less fun to torture her.
When Jing Xi was torturing her, she had been awake the whole time!
The best way to take revenge on Jing Xi was to use all the methods Jing Xi had used to take revenge on her and let Jing Xi have a taste of what it was like to be dead. But before that, Li Jing wanted to strip Jing Xi naked and take a few more photos of her. If Jing Xi was disobedient in the future, she could use the photos to threaten her. No girl would not be afraid of that, right?
Li Jing asked the bodyguard to get the camera for her, then she crouched down and took off Jing Xis clothes.
Li Jing had only unbuttoned one button when she heard footstepsing from the living room. Li Jing wondered why the bodyguards had brought the camera so quickly. When she looked up, she saw Lou Ziling with a cold and scary look in his eyes.
How did you get in?
Li Jing wanted to stand up, but Lou Ziling had already kicked her.
She wanted to fight back but it was toote. With a bang, she was kicked a few meters away by Lou Ziling.
However, she stood up from the floor as if nothing had happened. Then, she rushed to Lou Ziling and gave him a hard punch.
In a one-on-one fight, Lou Ziling was no match for Li Jing since he had not undergone any rigorous training. Their reaction speed was not on the same level. Li Jing had been kicked just now because she had not been prepared.
Besides, everyone here was Li Jings man. Lou Ziling had no chance of winning.
Li Jings punches were fast and fierce. Although Lou Ziling dodged most of them, he still took a few punches.
Li Jing looked gentle and charming, but her attacks were ruthless and merciless. Lou Ziling felt as if her internal organs had been shifted.
Li Jing, you promised me you wouldnt hurt Jing Xi!
Lou Zilings voice was filled with anger as she wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
Li Zhi had the upper hand and her attitude was extremely arrogant.Who Do You Think You Are? Im going back on my word now, and you cant do anything to me!
She watched as the bodyguard returned with the camera. She stopped him from attacking Lou Ziling. Instead, she tore the bodyguards clothes apart, revealing his strong and muscr upper body.
She patted the bodyguards firm chest muscles and smiled a little sinisterly.My bodyguards figure is not bad, right? There are 20 bodyguards like him in this vi. If I let all of them attack her at the same time, do you think that Jing Xi, who is still a child, can handle it?
Lou Ziling had always thought that she was smart, but she had never felt that she was so useless.
Jing Xi was lying at his feet, but he was not strong enough to protect her.
Lou Zilings body trembled slightly. It was not out of fear, but out of anger.Li Jing, if you dare to touch her, youll live in a nightmare for the rest of your life unless I die!
Aiyaya, President Lou, why did you take it so seriously? Im just joking. I dont dare to touch the youngdy of family Jing. Didnt you see that I even took off her clothes myself? It doesnt matter if its just a small fight, but if I hurt the little princess, Jing Rui wille for me immediately!
Li Jings tone suddenly changed to a rxed one, as if she were really just ying around with Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling finally calmed down a little. He knew that Jing Xi had the Jing familys support. Anyone who wanted to touch her would have to think twice.
He grabbed a nket from the sofa and wrapped it around Jing Xi, who was drenched. He picked her up and said coldly,The contract is void!
This wont do!
Li Jings brows furrowed. She had only taken a small step in her n, and she hadnt even used one of her big moves yet. How could she let it go?
She had even thought that she might be able to save her father from Jing Rui through Lou Ziling.
To Li Jing, her father was her only true family. The Li family had a lot of resources that only her father could mobilize. The resources she controlled now were not even half of the Li familys total assets.
Lou Ziling, if you dare to break your promise, I will destroy yourpany!
Youre the one who broke the promise first! You already know that my bottom line is Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling had already hurt Jing Xi once, and he did not want her to get hurt again because of him.
Li Jing sneered,Lou Ziling, you really like her? She was only 16 years old, underage! Dont you think that youre worse than a beast because youve developed a desire for an underaged woman? Youre worthy of her?
Lou Ziling held the pale little girl in his arms tightly. He remembered that Jing Xi had also called him a beast. In fact, Jing Xi had scolded him more harshly than Li Zhi.
He walked out with Jing Xi in his arms and said in a low voice,Id rather be worse than a beast
Chapter 1509
Chapter 1509: I dont want to see you
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling carried Jing Xi away. Li Zhi stomped her feet in anger. She hadnt had time to torture Jing Xi!
Who leaked the news? how could Lou Zilinge so quickly?
It was a pity that she couldnt bring Lou Ziling along with her. He looked like he was going to fight her to the death. Li Jing still needed him at this stage, so she couldnt really fall out with him.
Outside the vi, Luo Feiyang had already driven over with his men.
When he saw Lou Ziling put Jing Xi in the car, he immediately retorted,Lou Cheng, Xixi is still unconscious. I cant hand her over to you! Isnt li Jing your girlfriend? Who knows if youre the one behind her actions?
I dont trust you, Lou Ziling said calmly.I dont feel at ease leaving Jing Xi in your hands.
He got into the car, closed the door, and drove away with Jing Xi.
Luo Feiyang was dumbfounded as he watched Lou Zilings car disappear from his sight. He felt like he had been used by Lou Ziling!
This was simply burning bridges!
He had helped to find Li Jings car, but Lou Ziling had taken Jing Xi away alone!
His handsome face flushed red and he angrily called tan Ruyi,Tell me, where does your cousin go the most? This bastard, Im going to kill him!
Tan Ruyi was stunned for a minute. She didnt know why Luo Feiyang was so angry. She asked in fear,Hows Jing Xi? Did my cousin find her?
Luo Feiyang said unhappily,I found him. He took the person away! I have to find Xixi! Tell me, where does he like to go the most?
How would I know that! Its my first time United States, and Im not familiar with my cousin!
Tan Ruyi could tell from Luo Feiyangs tone that Jing Xi was probably fine. When he heard that something had happened to Jing Xi, Luo Feiyang had been serious and solemn, giving off a very different feeling.
Tan Ruyi rxed. She felt that it would be safest for her cousin to take Jing Xi away. Lou Ziling had always been reliable. Luo Feiyang was the unreliable one.
Not familiar? Tan Ruyi, you must be kidding me! Your mom is Lou Zilings aunt, and youre his cousin. How dare you say youre not close? Do you believe that Im going to take you to the police station right now and Sue you for stealing arge amount of my property?
Oh, oh, right, right, I was just about to tell you about this! I really didnt take your ring. Youve misunderstood me. Someone must have framed me. Look at the surveince camera. Maybe the surveince camera captured the person who stole the ring?
Tan Ruyi began to try her best to recall the situation at that time. She reported everything to Luo Feiyang, no matter how big or small. She even told him when she went to the bathroom and how long she stayed in the bathroom.
Luo Feiyang was in great pain. He had always despised Lou Ziling for being cold and quiet. He did not expect his cousin to be so talkative!
Dont girls know how to be more reserved?
He had already seen the surveince cameras, but the ce where he had put his bag happened to be in the blind spot of the surveince cameras, so nothing was captured at all.
He was still in a hurry to find Jing Xi, so he had no time to talk to tan Ruyi!
Luo Feiyang hung up the phone and asked his men to check Lou Zilings car.
Lou Ziling didnt go far. He found a hospital nearby and took Jing Xi to the emergency room.
After the doctors examination, Lou Ziling was relieved and left with Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling had thought that Li Jing had shot Jing Xi, but now he knew that Jing Xi had only been drugged with an anesthetic. No wonder she had not woken up.
He was worried that the hotel Jing Xi had stayed in was not safe, so he took her to another hotel.
Many people looked at him strangely when he checked in with an unconscious girl in his arms. Lou Ziling pretended not to see him. After checking in, he carried Jing Xi into a warm room.
The bed in the hotel was veryrge, and Jing Xis slender body looked a little petite as shey on it.
Her body was drenched. Lou Ziling wanted to help her change but hesitated for a while and decided not to.
Tan Zhen had always been worried that her son would have too many girlfriends and be a yboy. However, she did not know that Lou Ziling was deeply influenced by her, just like Lou ruofei.
Lou Ziling was a traditional man. He would never ruin a girls innocence.
He turned the air conditioner to the maximum, covered Jing Xi with a nket, held her head, and slowly dried her hair with a bath towel.
Lou Zilings uneasy heart finally calmed down.
The moment he heard that something had happened to Jing Xi, he felt that everything else was not important. Jing Xis safety was the most important.
Fortunately, tan Ruyi hade to the wedding in time. Otherwise, Jing Xi would have been in aa, and she would not have known what anyone had done to her.
The thought of Li Jing allowing those men to touch her made Lou Ziling furious.
Even he could not bear to touch her, how could he allow others to touch her!
It was as warm as spring in the room. Jing Xis pale face gradually turned red, and even her lips became bright and beautiful Again. She was so beautiful that he wanted to bite her.
Lou Ziling sat beside her and reached out to caress her delicate and wless face. Her fingers touched her soft lips. Her heart began to throb.
She was like a Sleeping Beauty from a fairy tale, lying there quietly, as if she would wake up with a kiss from the Prince.
Lou Ziling had never believed in fairy tales, but now, he felt that Jing Xi was a girl that only existed in fairy tales.
He slowly leaned over and kissed Jing Xis smooth forehead. He called her in a low voice,Xixi, I was wrong He said.
Unfortunately, Jing Xi could not hear him. Only Lou Ziling knew the extreme pain.
Everyone thought that he was unsociable, cold, heartless, and did not need emotions, but that was not the case.
Lou Ziling was also human. He had emotions and desires, but he was more reserved than ordinary people.
Who was born Cold?
He kept people at arms length only to protect himself from getting hurt.
He had actually gotten used to being alone, but this habit had been broken by Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling stayed by Jing Xis side and looked at her sleeping face, but he did not touch her again.
Her seduction was fatal to him. Lou Ziling felt the blood in his body flowing faster just by looking at her red lips. When their skin touched, the emotions that he had suppressed for too long would burst out.
After a long time, the sky outside waspletely dark. Jing Xi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly moved.
Lou Ziling held her hand and called her softly,Xixi, wake up
He called her many times before Jing Xi opened her eyes.
The anesthetic had slowed her brain down and her hands and feet lost their control. When she saw Lou Ziling, it took her a long time to react and realize who he was.
However, when she remembered who Lou Ziling was, her first sentence was,Get out! I dont want to see you!

Chapter 1510: Are you dreaming?
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling didnt move. She still held her hand and said,Okay, Ill go out when youre better.
Jing Xi felt his movement and wanted to pull her hand back, but she found that her hands were numb and she could not use any strength.
After being angry for a while, she quickly remembered what had happened before she fainted.
Where is this ce? Wheres Li Jing?
This is a hotel. I brought you out of her ce.
Youre not with her?Jing Xi asked suspiciously.
Lou Zilings face turned cold,no! Keep your distance from her in the future and remember to bring bodyguards with you.
He didnt know when Jing Xi stopped bringing bodyguards with her. A girl of her status should always have one.
Lou Ziling, do you have a split personality or are you insane? Jing Xi sneered. You were so in love with Li Zhi in the hotel square. Now that Li Jing isnt here, youve changed your attitude? You want to be the Best Actor?
She remembered the scene before she fainted very clearly. Li Jings words were like sharp thorns that stabbed into her heart. It was so painful that she couldnt pull them out.
Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xi quietly. Every time he saw another woman getting closer to him, Jing Xi would be an angry little lion.
In the past, he didnt understand the change. He thought that it was because Jing Xi had been with him for a long time and had a strong desire for him.
But now he knew that Jing Xi was angry because she cared about him.
Under Jing Xis shocked gaze, he lifted her hand and kissed the back of it. His voice was low and sexy with a hint of hoarseness.Ruyi called me and said that Li Jing shot you. She said that Li Jing dragged you into the car and took you away. She said that you were going to die soon. I felt that my mind was nk, and even my heart was empty.
I really regret leaving on my own. I should have let Li Jing get into my car, then you would be fine. However, Im afraid that youll be very angry if she gets into my car. Do you know that youre a little scary when youre angry?
Jing Xi could note back to her senses. What was happening?
Was she dreaming?
No, no, no. Even if it was a dream, Lou Ziling would not look like this! He had been holding her hand tightly and was even kissing the back of her hand now!
Jing Xi bit her lip hard, only to find that it didnt hurt at all!
Was he really dreaming? But now, everything seemed so real!
Lou Ziling reached out her fingers and pinched Jing Xis chin.Stop biting, its not a dream.
He knew every little habit of Jing Xi s. When she didnt believe something, she would bite her lip and then smile and say,it hurts, its not a dream!
Do you feel no pain? Its normal that theres still a lot of anesthetic left in your body.
Lou Ziling exined her current situation to Jing Xi in a gentle voice.Ive already taken you to the hospital. Youll be fine. Li Jing herself said that she wouldnt dare to do anything to you.
Jing Xi had never seen Lou Ziling talk so much in one go. She widened her eyes and asked,Who are you?
Lou Ziling, the real Lou Ziling.
Lou Zilings eyes were filled with gentleness. He let go of Jing Xis chin and touched her forehead. Its a little hot. You might have a fever. Ill go get you some medicine and something to eat. Dont move and dont go anywhere.
Jing Xis eyes were a little confused. She really couldnt tell if this was a dream or reality.
She didnte back to her senses even after Lou Ziling had left for a long time.
It was pitch ck outside. Jing Xi remembered that it was morning when she fell unconscious, but why did it feel like night had fallen in the blink of an eye?
Lou Ziling was the one who made her suspicious. He had changed so much that she didnt dare to recognize him.
Strictly speaking, the higher the IQ of a person, the more difficult it was to distinguish between reality and dreams. There were many geniuses in the world who had illusions. Jing Xi had never been unable to distinguish between reality and dreams before, but now she was very skeptical of the credibility of reality.
Some people said that by looking at a mirror and seeing if the person in the mirror was yourself, you would know if you were in a dream or in the real world.
If it was a dream, the person in the mirror would not be his own face. It might be someone elses face that appeared in his brain.
Jing Xi tried a few times and finally got out of bed. She staggered to the mirror in the room.
The anesthetic was still working, and Jing Xi felt that her limbs did not belong to her anymore. It did not hurt at all.
She was even more suspicious that she was dreaming.
However, when she stood in front of the mirror, she saw her own reflection.
She was still wearing the same clothes she had worn this morning, but they were crumpled.
Jing Xi tilted her head, and the one in the mirror did the same. She sat on the carpet, and the one in the mirror sat on the carpet, exactly the same.
This was impossible. If this was a dream, it would be impossible to replicate it.
She was still confused when Lou Ziling opened the door and walked in.
He put the medicine and food on the table, then walked to Jing Xi and gently picked her up.
Are you still suspecting that youre dreaming?
Yes, Jing Xi nodded.
Lou Ziling felt a little helpless. He put Jing Xi back on the bed, covered her with the quilt, and asked,Do I look so illusory?
Jing Xi suddenly reached out her hand and bit Lou Zilings arm. Seeing that his expression did not change at all, she could not help but say to herself,It seems like Im really dreaming. You dont even know what pain is
Lou Ziling rolled up her sleeves and showed her arm to Jing Xi.Youve already bitten out a mark.
Thats right. You didnt even cry out in pain when your teeth were clenched, and you didnt even frown. Its obviously fake.
Jing Xiy on the bed in a daze and said in a low voice,Dont appear in my dreams again, or Ill feel very sad and disappointed when I wake up. Ive already decided to forget you, so why did you stille?
After sleeping for an entire day and half a night, she had not eaten anything. She felt weak all over. She pushed Lou Ziling and said,You can leave!
Lou Zilings heart felt like it was being gripped by a hand. He pulled Jing Xi up and held her in his arms. He whispered in her ear,Xixi, Im sorry.
Even though she thought it was a dream, Jing Xi was still very resistant to Lou Ziling. Sometimes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. She was worried that if she fell too deep in the dream, she would fall too deep in reality.

Chapter 1511: Better be a eunuch
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi struggled to get out of his arms, but Lou Ziling held her tighter.Xixi, dont move. Let me hold you for a while. I didnt dare to hold you before.
Jing Xis tears suddenly fell. She put her arms around Lou Zilings neck and scolded him,Youre lying! You dont want to hug me!
Lou Ziling hurriedly coaxed her.Its not that I dont want to. Im just afraid that if I hug you too many times, youll find out the secret in my heart.
Jing Xi still did not believe it. She had seen Lou Zilings coldness and heartlessness. She did not believe that Lou Ziling would say such a thing.
She cried even harder because she felt so sad that she even dreamed of Lou Ziling being so good to her.
Lou Zilings shirt was soaked by Jing Xis tears, but he did not know why she was crying so hard. He could feel her grievance and sadness, but he did not know what was going on.
When Jing Xi was tired of crying, Lou Ziling asked her softly,What do you want to eat? Ive bought you blueberry cake, pomegranate juice, WAFU cakes, and milk tea.
These were all Jing Xis favorite foods and drinks, but she shook her head listlessly.Its all a dream anyway, so it doesnt matter if I eat it or not. Why havent you disappeared yet? In the past, they would only appear for a short while before disappearing.
She pushed Lou Ziling away andy on the bed. She closed her eyes and thought that maybe Lou Ziling would disappear.
But Lou Zilings voice was still in her ears.Dont sleep yet. Eat something and take the fever medicine.
Jing Xi pulled the nket over her head and murmured,How can I wake up from this dream? The movies seemed to be About suicide? Sigh, how can I do that? even in my dreams, I cant do this to myself!
Lou Ziling smiled wryly. The impression he left on Jing Xi was so deep that it would not be easy for Jing Xi to trust him again.
The person under the nket was silent. Lou Ziling pulled the nket away and saw that Jing Xi had fallen into a deep sleep.
He didnt have the heart to wake her up, so he let her sleep.
Lou Ziling spent the night on the sofa. In the morning, tan Zhen called him.
Son, why didnt you go homest night?
Lou Ziling nced at Jing Xi, who was still asleep. She lowered her voice and asked,Is there something?
Its fine. Your father and I are going back today, so you can go back with us! Apologize to your father on the way, you cant keep staying in this cold!
I still have things to do, so I wont be returning to the country for the time being,
Lou Ziling refused his mothers suggestion. He couldnt leave Jing Xi alone in this state.
Lou Mingyang had been ignoring him, so his apology was useless.
Lou Ziling hung up the phone and went to the bathroom to wash up. But when he came out, Jing Xi was already gone.
He immediately went out and saw Jing Xi in the corridor, who was about to leave.
Lou Ziling grabbed her and said angrily,Where are you going?
Youre not qualified to ask! Jing Xi broke free from his grip.
Lou Ziling was furious. He stayed by her side the entire night and this was how she treated him?
He picked Jing Xi up and carried her back to the room. He threw her back onto the bed and said coldly,Youre not allowed to go anywhere!
Jing Xi got out of bed and walked to the window.Alright, Ill jump down from here!
As she spoke, she climbed up the window. Lou Ziling was shocked. He was afraid that she would jump down impulsively. He quickly pulled her and pressed her against the wall.
Xixi, dont mess around.
Lou Zilings voice was restrained. He had no way to deal with Jing Xi.
He put his hand around Jing Xis waist and pressed her against the wall. They were so close together that Lou Ziling could feel all the beauty of a girl.
Jing Xi was awake now. After the anesthesia wore off, she knew that she was not dreaming.
However, there was no reason for Lou Ziling to change her attitude towards her.
Whats more, if Lou Ziling said she wanted to be with her, she would be with him. If he said he wanted to get a new girlfriend and kicked her away, should she leave?
Then his name might not be Lou Ziling, but Buddha Tathagata!
Jing Xis face was calm, and the confusion and pain fromst night were all gone. She stepped on Lou Zilings foot, and seeing that he had endured it, she gritted her teeth and raised her knee to hit Lou Zilings lower body.
Lou Ziling didnt expect Jing Xi to do this. His face turned pale and he broke out in a cold sweat.
How much did she hate him? did she want his life?
Lou Ziling let go of Jing Xis hand in pain. She covered a certain ce and bent down in pain.
Jing Xi did not expect the attack to be so powerful. Although she knew that it was a mans weakest spot, she had never used it before.
After she hit Lou Ziling, she felt a little heartache. She was afraid that she would really hurt Lou Ziling. What if
Pei Pei Pei!
What did it have to do with her if he broke down?
Hed better be a eunuch, then he wouldnt be able to hook up with all kinds of women in the future!
Jing Xiughed and suddenly felt relieved. She took two steps and was about to leave, but suddenly turned back and kicked Lou Zilings butt. Lou Ziling was bent over in pain and cold sweat. She was kicked to the carpet.
Lou Ziling was lying on the carpet, her body slightly curled up. Her eyes were closed and she was dead.
When Jing Xi reached the door of the room, she suddenly felt that something was not right, so she walked back quietly.
She observed Lou Ziling for a while. Seeing that Lou Ziling didnt move, she started to worry.Hey, Lou Ziling, stop pretending and get up! If you dont get up, Ill give you two more kicks. At that time, you really cant be a man anymore!
Lou Ziling didnt move, as if she had passed out.
Lou Ziling! Jing Xi was anxious and reached out to shake him.Wake up! Dont scare me!
Lou Ziling opened her eyes, grabbed Jing Xis hand, and pulled hard.
Caught off guard, Jing Xi fell onto him.
You lied to me?
Jing Xi was a little angry. Lou Ziling had learned to trick her!
She wanted to get up, but Lou Ziling turned over and pressed her under him.
Im not lying to you. It really hurts. It hurts so much that I want to die.
Lou Zilings face was still a little pale. Jing Xis kick was too ruthless!
However, he couldnt be angry. He felt that whatever she did was right.
He pressed down on Jing Xi, put his fingers into her hair, and raised her head slightly.You cant kick that kind of ce next time. Do you want to marry a eunuch?
Shameless! Jing Xi pushed him away. Lou Ziling, dont tell me you want to marry me. You liar!
Lou Ziling caught her wandering hands and her eyes darkened.Ill wait for you to grow up, Xixi. Youre only 16. Youre still too young.
Jing Xi stopped moving. She stared at Lou Ziling and asked,You really want to marry me?
Yes, Lou Ziling nodded.
Jing Xi grinned, gritted her teeth, and said,I wont marry you!
Chapter 1512
Chapter 1512: Its good enough that youre a boy
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi chuckled happily after she said that.
It was finally her turn to reject Lou Ziling!
She was still young and was still far from the legal age of marriage. She was not in a hurry to get married!
As for Lou Ziling, it would be best for her to die alone!
She reached out her hand and pinched Lou Zilings cheeks. She raised her eyebrows and said,Young master Lou, you should be prepared to be a Bachelor for the rest of your life! I wont marry you, and I wont allow any other woman to marry you!
Lou Ziling looked at her mischievous expression and suddenly felt that it was a sin to talk about marriage to Jing Xi now. Tan Ruyi was the same age as Jing Xi, but he had never thought that she could fall in love at this age.
Nowadays, many high school students fell in love. Wang Qiu kept tan Ruyi under tight control, afraid that her puppy love would affect her studies.
If Jing Xi had not been born into a special rich family, she would have been like tan Ruyi, attending sses and studying every day. She would not have thought about marriage at all.
Moreover, Lou Ziling never had high expectations for marriage. He liked to be alone. If he got married and had children, he would lose a lot of space.
Did Jing Xi think that he was afraid of being alone?
No, he was not afraid.
Lou Ziling picked Jing Xi up from the carpet, but she pushed him away as soon as she steadied herself.Thank you for saving me. Otherwise, I would have been at a disadvantage in Li Jings hands.
Her expression was calm and she didnt look like she was joking. She thanked Lou Ziling politely but there was no gratitude in her tone.
She suspected Lou Ziling and felt that he was colluding with Li Jing.
Lou Ziling watched Jing Xi walk out of the room, then walked to the window and waited for her to leave the hotel.
He had wanted to drive Jing Xi back to the hotel she had stayed in before, but before he could go downstairs, he saw Luo Feiyangs car stop beside Jing Xi.
Xixi, what are you doing here? Ive been looking for you all night!
Luo Feiyang had not slept the whole night, but he still looked energetic. Other than his slightly red eyes, he was in better shape than Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling was on guard against Luo Feiyang, so he deliberately stopped the car at another ce and checked in with Jing Xi at a hotel. In the end, Luo Feiyang only found Lou Zilings car but not his people.
It was not easy to find Jing Xi. He took Jing Xi to his car and told the driver to go to the airport.
Ive packed your things for you. Lets go to the airport and return to A city immediately! Its too dangerous here. Li Jing is a lunatic, and Lou Ziling, that bastard, is also burning bridges!
Jing Xi found it a little funny, but also a little touched. Luo Feiyangs house was right here, but he still said that it was too dangerous here and that he had to go back to A city.
She said softly,Feiyang, thank you! Its a blessing in my life to have a friend like you.
Luo Feiyang scratched his head uneasily.Aiya, why are you suddenly So polite? Im not used to it! Friends, arent they supposed to help each other at the risk of their lives!
Jing Xi nodded and said in a serious tone,If you need any help in the future, just let me know. Ill definitely do my best.
Luo Feiyangughed and said heroically,Good! If only you were a boy, I would be able to be your brother!
After saying that, he felt that it was not quite right. It was also good that she was a girl. He could marry her and take her home as his wife!
Xixi, I really do have a favor to ask of you!
What favor?
Look, Im justcking a girlfriend. I think youre a good fit
Jing Xi interrupted him,This is an exception! This isnt helping, this is paying for it!
Luo Feiyang was about to say something when his phone suddenly rang. He looked at the caller ID and frowned. He didnt pick up the call.
Who called? why didnt you answer? Jing Xi asked.
As far as she knew, Luo Feiyang was not afraid of anything and was extremely arrogant. He loved to nag and educate others, so he rarely didnt answer his phone.
It was tan Ruyi. She called me 800 times a day, insisting on exining that she didnt steal the ring! Youre so annoying!
Then she might not have taken it. You should go back and investigate it. Im afraid theres something wrong with the witnesses.
Luo Feiyang was unconvinced,how is that possible! Some of the witnesses were my friends, and some were my brothers friends. They didnt know Tan Ruyi, so why would they frame her?
Jing Xi was helpless. This man didnt listen to her advice at all. He just trusted his friends. She had no choice.
Then he would let tan Ruyi continue to bother him. It was not easy for someone like Luo Feiyang to be dealt with. Tan Ruyi had great potential.
After returning to city A, Luo Feiyang was extremely busy. Luo Feifei had really thrown all thepanies here to him. Seeing thepanys monthly profits falling, even Luo Feiyang, who was a spendthrift, felt heartache.
However, tan Ruyi called him as soon as ss ended. She called ten times a day, and every time, she had the same content: She did not steal the ring.
Luo Feiyang was almost driven crazy by her. He blocked her and she changed her number to call him again. Later, he simply changed his number, but the next day, tan Ruyis call still came in!
Tan Ruyi, are you done! I already said I dont me you, what else do you want?
What do you mean you dont me me? I didnt take anything from you. Dont you me me for it? Your way of thinking is wrong. Im innocent. You have to apologize to me if you misunderstand me.
Luo Feiyang was so angry that he almost died,you stole my big diamond ring and I still have to apologize to you? Then do you need to throw me into prison to eat prison food for a few years!
Tan Ruyis voice suddenly became very aggrieved.See, youre still ming me. You still think I stole it. Ive exined a thousand times. It wasnt me. Someone else put it in my bag on purpose
Its starting again. Luo Feiyang had really heard these words a thousand times. Now, he could even recite them backwards!
Tan Ruyi, are you the Ruyi golden hoop incantation? Are you the reincarnation of Tang Sanzang? Dont you think its a waste of your phone bill to repeat it more than ten times a day?
Tan Ruyi timidly corrected him,its the Ruyi golden-hooped rod. This is Sun Wukongs weapon, not Tang Sanzang s. Your Chinese teacher is wrong. Go back and study well!
Luo Feiyang felt like he was going to go crazy. He really had a Bodhisattvas heart by not strangling tan Ruyi to death!
You shut up! Ive wasted so much time on you every day that I dont have time to go after Jing Xi. Dont call me again!
Do you like Jing Xi that much?
Tan Ruyis mind was spinning quickly.How about this? Im going to have my winter vacation soon. Ill chase her for you, but you have to go back and investigate the ring and clear my name.
Chapter 1513
Chapter 1513: Hallucination
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang was willing to do anything as long as he could get rid of this female monk.
Okay, okay, okay! He promised.Please put in a good word for me in front of Jing Xi. My happiness in this life depends on you!
Tan Ruyi was very happy.Sure, leave it to me. I understand girls the best!
After sending tan Ruyi away, Luo Feiyang finally had two days of peace.
However, thepanys situation didnt improve because of his peace and quiet. It was already on the verge of bankruptcy.
Luo Feifei did not care at all. Thesepanies would be Luo Feiyangs personal assets in the future. If they were lost by him, then they were gone.
Luo Feiyang had no choice but to look for Lou Ziling.
Im in a bit of trouble here, hurry up and let me take a look!
Lou Ziling was not in a good mood recently, so he didnt bother to talk to him.
Lou Ziling, are you going to help or not? If you dont help me, then call my sister-inw and ask her to control you!
Lou Ziling wasnt afraid of Lou ruofei, but he was worried that Lou ruofei would be in a difficult position in the Luo family because of him.
However, he would not agree to Luo Feiyangs request so easily. Otherwise, there would be no end to it after helping him this time.
If you work as my assistant for a month without anyints, Ill help you save thepany.
What?
Luo Feiyangs eyes widened.How dare you ask me to be your assistant?! A month? Mypany has long gone bankrupt!
Its fine if you dont want to. The Luo family has plenty ofpanies, and the one in A city is just a drop in the ocean. If it goes bankrupt, you can continue to mess with otherpanies. You should be able to practice your skills before you lose everything.
Of course, Luo Feiyang didnt want to be Lou Zilings assistant. He was the second young master of the Luo family. Do you still want to work in the future?
Just as he was ring at Lou Ziling, the door of Lou Zilings office was pushed open. A beautiful woman walked in. She had a noble temperament, but she had a hint of charm.
Luo Feiyang felt like his soul was about to be taken away!
He didnt need Lou Zilings introduction to guess the identity of the visitor.
Li Jing?
Li Jings smile was perfect, and her voice was sweet.Second young master Luo actually recognized me at a nce. Good eyes!
Luo Feiyang was different from Lou Ziling. He had a fiery personality and had been with a lot of women. One look at Li Jing and he knew that she was a top-ss beauty.
Neen years old was the age of passion. In order to pursue Jing Xi, he had not touched a woman for a long time. When he saw Li Jings curvy figure, his eyes lit up!
Lou Ziling was so lucky to have such a girlfriend!
There was no conflict between the Luo family and the Li family. Luo Feiyang grinned at Li Jing.Seeing is better than hearing. Miss Li is indeed a beauty that can cause the downfall of a city! However, your eyesight might not be that good, and your boyfriend is a little terrible!
Li Zhiughed hysterically,you do live up to your reputation! However, Ziling is still very outstanding. I believe in my choice.
Lou Ziling didnt like Luo Feiyang and Li Jing. Hearing the two of them talking nonsense in his office, he immediately chased them out.Get out!
How can I do that, Ziling? Im here to discuss a project with you today. Arent you interested?
Lou Zilings voice was cold.Im not interested. Also, I hope you remember that our contract has been terminated.
When Luo Feiyang heard that the two of them seemed to be talking about some confidential matters, he quickly got up and left.
The Li family had always been famous for their sinister and ruthless ways. Ordinary people did not dare to provoke them. Luo Feiyang felt that there was no need for him to get involved.
He went back to hispany and called for a meeting with the management to discuss a solution to prevent thepany from going bankrupt because of his wrong decision.
Luo Feiyang didnt even know how thepanys management got promoted. All they knew was to shirk responsibility. No one really came up with ideas to do the actual work!
He really wanted to fire all these people who he didnt like, but if he fired them, thepany would copse even faster.
In the evening, he was still working overtime at thepany. He didnt even attend to Jing Xis call for dinner.
In the end, tan Ruyi came over after a while.
How do you even know mypanys address? Luo Feiyang was stunned.
Tan Ruyis eyes widened and she said innocently,My cousin and cousin both know. Just ask one of them!
Luo Feiyang gritted his teeth and said,Lou Ziling! So it was you who betrayed me!
Tan Ruyi was unhappy,how can this be considered betraying? Are you afraid of others knowing yourpanys address? And I got this address from my cousin, what does it have to do with my cousin!
Tan Ruyi was so afraid of Lou Ziling that she usually wouldnt look for him. Compared to the cold Lou Ziling, Lou ruofeis personality was much better. She doted on her a lot. Tan Ruyi would video chat with Lou ruofei from time to time, like real sisters.
When Luo Feiyang heard that tan Ruyi was about to start her long-winded speech again, he quickly interrupted her,What do you want from me? In the future, just keep in touch by phone. Donte to mypany, its not good for you!
Tan Ruyi frowned and said,is there anything I cant see? I wouldnt havee if it wasnt for you! You think you look
Whats the matter?
Didnt I help you pursue Jing Xi? Were good friends now, why dont you go if shes treating you to a meal? Do you know how long Ive been trying to persuade Jing Xi to give you a chance to eat? She finally agreed!
I dont have time! Everyone in thepany is working overtime. If I, the highestmander, leave, will everyone still be able to work hard? Mypany is about to go bankrupt, how can I have the mood to eat!
Luo Feiyang felt that this girl was just causing him trouble. He impatiently chased her away.Hurry up and go back to your house to do your homework. Dont bother me!
Tan Ruyi looked at him aggrievedly.Ive helped you chase a girl. When are you going to prove my innocence? Its not my problem that I didnt catch up to you, its your ownck of effort. Are you going to deny it? Youre too evil!
Her 16-year-old face still had a trace of naivety, like a Jade Orchid that had just begun to bloom, pure and elegant.
She was wearing a white down jacket with a circle of short white fur around her neck. It made her look cute, like a red-eyed rabbitining about its owners cruelty.
Luo Feiyang felt that he must have suffered too much today. Not only did he think that Li Jing was shockingly beautiful, but he also thought that tan Ruyi was a little pretty too!
Crazy, crazy, he must have not been in love for too long to have such an illusion!
Get out. Call me if you need anything. If youe to my office again, Ill assume that you stole something!
Run! Luo Feiyang roared, scaring tan Ruyi into running away like a Frightened Rabbit.
Luo Feiyang touched the tip of his nose. He regretted shouting too loudly and his tone was too fierce.
Chapter 1514
Chapter 1514: The touched heart shattered into pieces
Trantor: 549690339
It was almost the end of the year, and heavy snow covered the entire city.
Thepany that Luo Feiyang managed went bankrupt.
Thousands of employees had lost their jobs at the end of the year, and there was no hope for year-end bonuses. Even their sries were dyed.
The loss was more than 20 million Yuan. This was the first time in Luo Feiyangs life that he felt defeated and ipetent.
The once domineering, willful, and arrogant second young master of the Luo family was now surrounded by countless employees in his office. He was exhausted, lost, and med himself.
He wanted to scold someone, but he didnt know who to scold or how to scold.
He wanted to scold his father, Luo Yi. Why didnt he control him in the past and let him learn more!
He wanted to scold his brother, Luo feilie. Why did he hand over such a bigpany to him so easily? why didnt he help him solve the crisis?
He wanted to scold Lou Ziling for not helping him and letting hispany go bankrupt!
Perhaps, the person who should be scolded the most was himself?
Luo Feiyang had not eaten for a day and a night. He was very hungry, but he had no appetite.
Tan Ruyi carried bags of food and squeezed into the crowd.Aiya, all of you All of you, make way. I want to go in!
By the time she was in front of Luo Feiyang, her pretty ponytail had been messed up and she looked a little funny.
But Luo Feiyang couldntugh. He said angrily,Why are you here again? Im bankrupt and youre here tough at me? I wont pursue the matter of the ring, but dont mention your innocence to me again in the future!
Tan Ruyis big eyes were wide open, and she said weakly,You Youve misunderstood. Im not here to ask you to prove my innocence. Im just here to bring you some food. My cousin said that youve been busy these few days and no ones taking care of you, so she asked me toe and see you
Luo Feiyangs anger was cut off. He felt a little awkward and didnt know what to do.
He was really used to scolding people. Tan Ruyi did not do anything serious all day long. She kept saying that she was innocent, so he had misunderstood her this time.
When the employees around Luo Feiyang saw that tan Ruyi was bringing food to Luo Feiyang, they were not happy.
Everyone hasnt eaten yet. Theyre all waiting for their sries. Why should President Luo eat?
Whats the Luo family trying to do? are they trying to humiliate us by pushing a young man whos not even twenty years old to manage such a bigpany? Hurry up and pay your sry, or else everyone will be wasting time here!
Thats right. Weve been working overtime for more than a month, and in the end, we didnt get a single cent. The money must have been taken by the Luo family!
The hundreds of people were all furious and looked at tan Ruyi with hostility. They suspected that she was in cahoots with Luo Feiyang and had emptied thepanys funds.
If it wasnt for the fact that tan Ruyi looked like an underaged girl, everyone would have asked her for money.
Even so, some people in the crowd who were starving fiercely snatched the snacks and drinks in tan Ruyis hands.
Ah!
Tan Ruyi shrieked in fear. She had never experienced such a situation before. It was as if she was about to eat someone up!
Thest time she was here, werent they all so polite? How did they be bandits in the blink of an eye?
Luo Feiyang pulled tan Ruyi behind him to protect her from being hurt.
Tan Ruyi shivered and held Luo Feiyangs hand tightly, as if she was afraid that he would push her out.
The spacious office was filled with people. It was noisy and chaotic, but Luo Feiyang felt warm in his heart. At least there was someone who was afraid that he would be hungry and had speciallye to bring him food.
Retreat! How dare you bully a little girl? do you have any shame? Ill definitely pay back the sry I owe you. If you have any problems,e at me. It has nothing to do with this girl!
Luo Feiyang shouted at the top of his lungs, but no one believed him. The shouts and curses rose one after another, and no one left.
They were afraid that if they let Luo Feiyang go, their sry would really go down the drain!
At least he could get some money if he detained the second young master of the Luo family, right?
Everyone was trying to guess tan Ruyis identity. They stared at her as if she was gold, as if she was also very valuable and could be used to ask for a sry from the Luo family.
Luo Feiyang ignored everyones curses. He turned around and pulled tan Ruyi back. He said in a rare gentle tone,Dont be afraid, its fine.
No, no, Im still scared. How can this be okay? Its too scary. Im a coward, so you can carry it on your own. Im going home!
Luo Feiyangs heart, which had been touched just now, was instantly shattered!
This girl was even angrier than Jing Xi, and she was good at ruining the atmosphere!
Tan Ruyi wanted to leave, but Luo Feiyang wouldnt let her. He grabbed her hand tightly and wouldnt let her break free.There are so many people here, its easy for you toe in, but its hard to get out! You stole my ring, and now I have no gift for Jing Xi. Youll die with me!
Tan Ruyi was really timid. She was so scared when she saw Lou Zilings cold face. When she heard that she was going to die and saw so many people staring at her with fierce eyes, her eyes turned red.
No no no, I really didnt steal anything! I dont want to die yet. What will happen to my mother if I die? She has already lost my father, so she cant lose me as well!
As she said that,rge drops of tears fell from her eyes, as if she was really going to die.
Luo Feiyang was stunned. He was just joking. Why did this girl take it so seriously?
His originally heavy and anxious heart suddenly rxed, and he felt that being surrounded by everyone was not so embarrassing.
Its just the copse of apany, whats the big deal! The Luo family had little business and was not well-known in city A. If they were in the United States, no one would dare to bully him like this!
Luo Feiyang squeezed tan Ruyis soft and boneless little hand. He felt that it was very nice to touch. If only he could y with it a little longer.
Dont cry. I wont let you die even if I die.
Luo Feiyang had always been a loyal person. Even if he was facing death now, he would not drag the innocent tan Ruyi into it.
Tan Ruyi looked at him doubtfully with tears in her eyes.Really? Then Then hurry up and ask for some money from your family, pay them their sries, and let them leave!
At the mention of this, Luo Feiyang got angry.I might not be my parents biological son. Ive called them a few times, but they didnt give me a single cent! He said that I have to pay the debt I caused myself!
Tan Ruyi did not know the exact situation of Luo Feiyangs family, so she took his words seriously. She thought that Luo Feiyang was not her biological son, so she immediately sympathized with him.
She still had her mother, but Luo Feiyang didnt even have biological parents. How pitiful!
Then Should I give my cousin a call and ask him to help you?
Just as Luo Feiyang was about to scold Lou Ziling, a cold and dignified voice suddenly rang out in the noisy office.
Im Lou Ziling. I owe you my sry. I can go to the Lou group to get my sry this afternoon!
Chapter 1515
Chapter 1515: You can y with this
Trantor: 549690339
The crowd suddenly quieted down. Some even made way for Lou Ziling.
Inparison, Luo Feiyang was not well-known in A city, but Lou Ziling had a lot of exposure.
As one of the top ten most outstanding young entrepreneurs in A city, he was not only young but also handsome.
Of course, his seven rtionships so far had also made him the headline of entertainment and financial news many times in a row!
Many people jokingly said that he could summon a Divine Dragon after collecting all seven Dragon Balls.
In the past two years, Lou Zilings momentum had been very strong. Recently, he had been in a rtionship with Li Zhi, who was five years older than him. He often appeared in major media outlets. Basically, everyone present knew Lou Ziling.
With his guarantee, their sries were finally settled!
Everyone was surprised and overjoyed. Tan Ruyi was also very happy. The little stars in her eyes were about toe out. She whispered to Luo Feiyang,Look, my cousin is so handsome! Hes really amazing, hes been different from the rest since he was young!
Tan Ruyi hadpletely forgotten that she had previously suspected that her different cousin was a zombie.
Luo Feiyang felt that her admiration for Lou Ziling was very eye-catching. He was very unhappy and said in a bad tone,Whats so great about him? why did he have to wait until now to pretend to be a good person? what was he doing before mypany went bankrupt?
Tan Ruyi shook off Luo Feiyangs hand and red at him angrily.
You really dont know whats good for you. My cousin came to help you out and pay your sry, but you dont thank him. You deserve to go bankrupt! Did his moneye from the wind? And why should he help you run thepany? He cant even handle his ownpany!
Tan Ruyi rarely scolded people so harshly, but in her heart, her cousins were all family. They were her real brothers and sisters. Ever since her father passed away, it was her aunts family who had been concerned about her and her mother. Her uncle, Lou Mingyang, would even attend parent-teacher meetings for her like her father.
She could despise Lou Zilings aloofness and aloofness, but she would turn against anyone who criticized Lou Ziling.
Tan Ruyi rolled her eyes at Luo Feiyang and ran to Lou Zilings side. She looked up and called him,Cousin!
Why are you here? Lou Ziling frowned.
I
Before tan Ruyi could finish her sentence, Lou Ziling said coldly,Lets go home!
Oh
Tan Ruyi lowered her head in fear and walked out obediently.
Everyone heard tan Ruyi calling Lou Ziling cousin and knew that she was a rtive of the Lou family. No one made things difficult for her and let her leave.
Luo Feiyang was so angry that blood rushed to his head. He had never seen tan Ruyi so naive!
Would Lou Ziling be so kind as to pay him his sry?
In your dreams!
The money would be on the Luo familys ount. Lou Ziling would not lose a single cent. She would even gain a big favor from the Luo family!
The employees who came to ask for their sries left one after another. They all rushed to the Lou Corporation to get their sries.
Luo Feiyang and Lou Ziling were the only two people left in the office.
Consider this money as a loan from me. Ill tell you the total amount after Ive paid everyones sries. The interest rate will be five times the banks interest rate for the same period. You can leave city A when youve paid off the money.
Five times? Why dont you just Rob someone!
Luo Feiyang was so angry that he wanted to hit Lou Ziling. However, he realized that he could not beat Lou Ziling, so he could only re at him.You cant possibly control my body, can you? Ill go wherever I want, and I wont return the money. You were the one who wanted to pay my sry, I didnt ask you to!
Its okay. Luo feilie has already mortgaged the office building youre using now. With this diamond, its enough to settle your sry and pay off your debts.
Lou Ziling said as she took out a ring.
On the ring, there was arge, bright pink diamond.
Luo Feiyangs eyes almost popped out.When did you steal my diamond? Give it back to me, this is the eighteenth birthday present I received!
Lou Ziling put the diamond back into her suit pocket and said,Its just a stone.
His tone was a little disdainful. Luo Feiyang suspected that Lou Ziling was taking revenge on him!
This was supposed to be a gift for Jing Xi, but Lou Ziling said it was worthless!
Youre just jealous that Im rich enough to give Xixi such a big and pure pink diamond! Hmph, just you wait, Ill definitely return the money to you, but if my diamond is damaged in the slightest, Ill Ill sell your cousin for money!
Lou Ziling was confused. What did this have to do with tan Ruyi?
Could someone like tan Ruyi be valuable?
He shook his head. He kind of understood why Luo Feiyang went bankrupt so quickly after taking over thepany. There was something wrong with his taste!
Luo Feiyang thought that Lou Ziling would care about his only cousin. However, he didnt know that Lou Ziling didnt care about her at all. Tan Ruyi didnt have much of a presence in Lou Zilings heart.
If Luo Feiyang had said that he would sell Jing Xi, Lou Ziling might have reacted a little, but he didnt dare to sell Jing Xi.
After Lou Ziling settled Luo Feiyangs matter, he left Luo Feiyangs office and went back to his car.
He hesitated for a moment before taking out the ring.
The diamond was very bright, the texture was clear, and there were no impurities. The craftsmanship was excellent, and it was obviously the work of a master.
But other than that, Lou Ziling didnt think the diamond was beautiful at all. In his heart, it was just a stone.
Diamonds were only sold at such high prices because they were too highly valued. Anything that symbolized love was just an advertisement gimmick.
Lou Ziling rubbed her forehead, wondering if Jing Xi liked these kinds of things.
He had taken Luo Feiyangs ring because he didnt want him to give it to Jing Xi.
He was the only one who could give her a diamond ring!
Although Lou Ziling didnt feel much about the diamond ring, it was amon rule that only couples could give each other gifts. What if Jing Xi epted it after Luo Feiyang gave it?
No matter what, she could not return the ring to Luo Feiyang.
Lou Ziling pondered about how to get rid of the ring.
After having such a big diamond, Luo Feiyang was too embarrassed to give Jing Xi a ring with a small diamond. However, it was difficult to find another one this big. For the time being, Luo Feiyang would not give Jing Xi anything like this again.
As Lou Ziling was thinking, he suddenly saw tan Ruyi peeking out from behind a holly tree. He thought for a moment and waved at her.
Tan Ruyi was vexed. She didnt expect her cousin to find out even though she was already very careful.
She walked to Lou Zilings car helplessly and called out to her cousin timidly.
Lou Ziling passed the ring to her.You can have this. Luo Feiyang said that he misunderstood you. Its for you to apologize.
Tan Ruyi looked as if she had been struck by lightning. She took the ring in a daze. She was still in a mess even after Lou Ziling drove away.
Chapter 1516
Chapter 1516: Borrowing money
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang himself had said countless times that this diamond ring was worth millions. Tan Ruyi was not sure how many millions it was exactly, but even the lowest one million was a huge sum of money to her!
This diamond ring could buy at least two small apartments. Luo Feiyang was using it to apologize to her?
Cousin Was he really not ying with her?
However, tan Ruyi had never seen Lou Ziling joke before. He was a man of few words and had never lied to her.
Tan Ruyi wanted to call Luo Feiyang to confirm it, but she had just given him a good scolding. If she went to him now, would she be met with a cold shoulder?
She carefully held the priceless diamond ring in her hands, as if she was afraid that it would be snatched away along the way, protecting it tightly.
If she lost it and Luo Feiyang went back on his word and wanted to take it back, how was she going topensate him?
The new year arrived very soon, and A city was filled with a jubnt atmosphere.
Luo Feiyang was angry with his parents and didnt go back to United States instead, he went to Ji moxuans house and spent the new year with the Ji family.
Lou Mingyang called him and wanted him to spend the new year with the Lou family. However, Luo Feiyang was quarreling with Lou Ziling. He didnt like to see Lou Ziling. He thought Ji moxuan was more pleasing to the eye.
Ji Bo liked Luo Feiyang very much, so he called Luo Yi and told him about it. Then, he happily asked Luo Feiyang to stay at his house for the new year.
Ji Bo had long known that Luo Feiyang had managed thepany until it went bankrupt, but Luo Yi had told him not to help. He had to make Luo Feiyang fall first so that he could be more motivated in the future.
Ji Bo didnt know if Luo Feiyang was ambitious or not, but he knew that Luo Feiyang was much more diligent in pursuing Jing Xi than Ji moxuan.
He was a verypetitive opponent!
Then, Ji moxuan could not help but be taught a lesson by Ji Bo, which made Ji moxuan so angry that he wanted to kick Luo Feiyang out.
Luo Feiyang didnt mind and said shamelessly,Good brother, lend me some money to spend! You know, mypany went bankrupt and my brother didnt give me any pocket money. Look at me, I dont even have a new set of clothes for the new year. How pitiful!
I dont have any money, Ji moxuan said unhappily.I only have one life!
If you dont want to lend it to me, dont me me for telling your parents about you and Wu Wei!
Ji Bo and his wife were not very close, and they often had different views. Quarrels weremon, but they were surprisingly in agreement when it came to Ji moxuans girlfriend.
The couple would never allow a girl with no background and character like Wu Wei to enter the family.
Dont frame me. I havent been in contact with Wu Wei for a long time!
Oh, really? Then who were you on the phone withst night? Do you believe that we can find out the other partys location just by checking your call history?
Ji moxuans face darkened,this is my business. Just mind your own business. Do you think its not enough to bankrupt just onepany?
The two of them purposely poked at each others sore spot. Luo Feiyang was also angry.Is there something wrong with your brain? He clearly knew that Wu Wei wasnt a good person, so why did he still keep in touch with her? How much money have you spent on her? It had already exceeded 10 million! Shes a bottomless pit that can never be filled!
Wu Wei was now living like a richdy. It was still fine when she was abroad. She was far away, and it took her a lot of effort to pester Ji moxuan.
Now that Ji moxuan had brought her back to the country, she continued to pester him from day to night.
Now, she had already made use of Ji moxuans resources to sessfully step into the entertainment industry and was climbing up by any means possible!
Enough! Her background is pitiful, and she really likes me, so I should help her! If she leaves me, shell be in so much pain that shell wish she was dead. How can I just watch hermit suicide?
She threatened you with suicide? Luo Feiyang was stunned.
Ji moxuan was a little annoyed.She wasnt threatening me. She was just saying goodbye to me. I was the one who discovered that she wanted tomit suicide.
Luo Feiyang frowned.I dont think its possible. She cherishes her life more than anyone else. She loves to enjoy life more than anyone else. You must have been deceived by her!
Even if Ive been deceived by her, Ill still help her if I have to do it again. Otherwise, if she really dies, Ill never be able to live with my conscience.
But have you ever thought that if Wu Wei gets better and better, she will still hurt Jing Xi? She was able to use the money you gave her to hire people to harm Jing Xi when she was powerless. What if she bes powerful in the future?
Luo Feiyang himself was once infatuated with Wu Wei. In the past, he felt that Wu Wei was the purest and most beautiful girl in the world. In fact, he could understand how Ji moxuan felt now. Ji moxuan was more emotional than him, and he was more easily soft-hearted.
However, he had already seen through Wu Weis nature, so how could he let Ji moxuan continue to be immersed in it?
If this continued, Ji moxuan would bepletely destroyed by Wu Wei.
Luo Feiyangs expression was serious.Mo Xuan, its one thing for us to fight. However, if youre in danger, I wont just stand by and watch! We grew up together, so you should know what kind of person I am. If you cant be ruthless to Wu Wei, Ill do it for you!
Ji moxuan knew that even though Luo Feiyang had tricked him countless times, they were all really trivial matters. He had never done anything that would harm the Ji familys interests.
He was a little touched. Just as he was about to say thank you, he heard Luo Feiyang say,If I help you solve Wu Wei, you will give me ten million Yuan. How about it? this is a friendship price. Im very generous, right?
Ji moxuan immediately gave him a punch.Get lost! Why dont you go rob a bank instead?!
Arent you a bro? Im short on money right now, cant you help a bro? I owe Lou Ziling a lot of money, and he even used the diamond ring I gave to Xixi to pay off my debt. Just treat it as youre keeping another beautiful woman. Give me ten million Yuan first!
Ji moxuan was so angry that he fell backwards.I can keep a beautiful woman as my mistress. Shes good for my eyes and warm my bed. What can you do? You want ten million? do you think ten million is a small amount?
Its fine. I can warm my bed too. Come,e,e. Ill warm you up first tonight!
Get lost!
In the end, Luo Feiyang only managed to borrow one million from Ji moxuan. However, to a young master like him who spent money like water, this was like a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood.
He had no choice but to call Jing Xi out a few dayster.
Xixi, can you lend me some money to spend?
The new year had just passed, so the coffee shop was very quiet. Only Luo Feiyang and Jing Xi were there.
The caf was owned by Shangguan ning and it had been transferred to Jing Xi. If Luo Feiyang hadnte to the caf for coffee, the caf wouldnt have opened so early.
How much do you want? Jing Xi asked.
That Five million? No, no, no, two million will do!
Jing Xi said without hesitation,Alright!

Chapter 1517: The three of you, make a short report
Trantor: 549690339
The next day, Luo Feiyang received the money transfer from Jing Xi.
He looked at the extra money in his ount and suddenly felt that it was meaningless to get the ring back from Lou Ziling.
He had redeemed the ring with Jing Xis money and then given it to Jing Xi?
Thats too degrading!
Forget it, Ill just use this money as thepanys start-up capital. I cant really just wander around all day.
Thepanys bankruptcy had always been a thorn in his heart, making him feel very ufortable.
Especially when he had to borrow money from Jing Xi. It was too embarrassing.
Two monthster, Luo Feiyang re-established thepany while he was in a terrible fix.
The scale of thepany had shrunk significantly, and the business had also been greatly affected. Luo Feiyang had worked hard for a few days, but he still had not seen any results.
He had no choice but to call Jing Xi and Ji moxuan over.
They were all children of influential families. Although they didnt have much experience in running apany, it was better than him blindly thinking about it, right?
However, he had really called the wrong person. Ji mo Xuans knowledge was basically theoretical experience, his hands-on experience was practically zero.
Jing Xi had been managing Liyu Science & Technology for quite some time, but she didnt have to do much every day. Liyu Science & Technology was well-managed in all aspects, and the senior executives had their own duties and were in an orderly manner.
Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen were there to deal with any major problems. Jing Xi was just there to listen to the debate.
However, Luo Feiyangspany was now full of loopholes. The three newbies who did not have to worry about food and clothing had to work together all day long to tear down the east wall to fix the west wall. They were struggling left and right. It was a very embarrassing situation.
Jing Xi was so angry that she didnt even go to her ownpany anymore. She didnt even ask for her sry every day. She reported to Luo Feiyangs newpany early in the morning and often argued with Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan until her face and ears were red.
Luo Feiyangs father, Luo Yi, was mainly in the emerce business. Luo Feiyangs currentpany was in charge of logistics and distribution.
Thepetition in the logistics industry was fierce. There were at least a dozen decent-sized logisticspanies in city A. Luo Feiyangspany used to be quiterge, but it had be a smallpany now.
The original customers had all been snatched away by other logisticspanies.
After thepany went bankrupt, its reputation would not be good. Luo Feiyang had no choice but to change the name of thepany. It was now called Feiyang logistics.
He had to start from scratch.
Jing Xi and Ji moxuan had never been in contact with the logistics industry, so they could not help but cause a lot of trouble.
Just as the three of them were frowning, Lou Ziling arrived.
He nced at Jing Xi, who was sitting with Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan, and his brows furrowed.
Seeing Lou Ziling in a suit, Jing Xi subconsciously looked at herself.
Fortunately, she had learned good etiquette in the past. Even though she was tired and exhausted, she still maintained a good look.
Lou Ziling turned to Luo Feiyang and said,Gather your employees, I want to have a meeting!
President Lou, dont act all high and mighty, Luo Feiyang replied angrily.My temple is small. It cant amodate a Big Buddha like you.
If it wasnt for your father and cousin entrusting me with this, do you think I would be willing toe?
Lou Ziling directly upied the main seat in the office. Her tone was cold and her aura was strong.The three of you, give a brief report on thepanys situation first!
Jing Xi and the other two were a little confused. Why did they feel that Lou Ziling was here to be their leader?
But this wasnt the Lou Corporation!
Jing Xi didnt want to talk to Lou Ziling, and Ji moxuan didnt want to be under anyone. Only Luo Feiyang, who had always been arrogant, was calm at this moment. He didnt mock Lou Ziling, nor was he unhappy.
He was silent for a while. When Lou Ziling was about to lose her patience and leave, Luo Feiyang said,Which part should I introduce first?
Jing Xi and Ji moxuan both looked at him in surprise. They both thought that Luo Feiyang was thest person they should give in to!
Lets talk about the financial data first, Lou Ziling said indifferently.I want to know the ie and expenditure situation, assets, debts, and cash flow of the past three months!
Wait a minute, Luo Feiyang said.Ill get the Finance Manager toe in and report to you.
Lou Zilings expression turned cold and her tone was stern.You dont even know your ownpanys ie and expenditure? Wheres your brain?
Luo Feiyang was annoyed by his scolding.Ill know when I look at the report. Why should I remember it? Do you know the financial situation of your group? Let us hear it!
The ie, expenditure, and profit statements of the Lou group are ssified. You have no right to ask about them!
Luo Feiyang was so angry that his face turned pale.You didnt tell me about yourpany. Instead, you came here to ask for my secrets?
You call this confidential? I wouldnt be interested in yourpany even if I had all the information.
Lou Zilings words were merciless. Luo Feiyangs face turned ugly. But on second thought, he was right.
He suppressed his anger and cursed in his heart,Ill endure it today! Theres still a long way to go. When Im done with thepany, Ill piss you off!
Luo Feiyang called the Finance Manager to report the financial situation to Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling would interrupt them from time to time and ask about the details.
The most amazing thing was that he actually remembered all the data after listening to the entire report.
From this, he found a financial loophole, and The Finance Manager misappropriated thepanys assets.
The Finance Manager knew that he had encountered an expert and was scared to death.
Lou Ziling threw a huge stack of financial statements at his face and said coldly,I want to see a new report tomorrow. If there are any more problems, the prison will wee you!
Yes, yes, yes, I wont dare to do it again! Ill do my best and return all my assets to thepany!
The Finance Manager trembled as he left, but Luo Feiyang jumped up in anger.Lou Ziling, why dont you fire those traitors? I cant have such an employee!
Lou Ziling threw him a cold look.Fire him, and youll do the report?
I can go and hire a new manager!
Recruitment? How long would it take to recruit a Senior Financial Manager? Did newly recruited people have to have reliable characters? Wont the new people working with you and the team lower their work efficiency?
Then what should we do? We cant keep people who poach from thepany, can we?
Stabilize thepany first, and rece the unqualified ones one by one. Alright, now let me introduce the other parts.
Lou Ziling managed to render Luo Feiyang speechless with just a few words.
After listening to Luo Feiyangs introduction of thepany, he held a short meeting with the management and took control of thepanys overall situation with a Swift and powerful speed.
In just an hour, he had demonstrated his powerful logical thinking and operational ability.
Luo Feiyangs eyes were filled with shock while Ji moxuans expression wasplicated. They had never known that the reticent Lou Ziling was so sharp and sharp. She had left them in the dust by dozens of streets.
Jing Xi sat in front of the long conference table, quietly looking at Lou Ziling, who was sitting in the main seat.
The way he focused on his work was unusually cold, making people respect and admire him.
Chapter 1518
Chapter 1518: My girlfriend
Trantor: 549690339
As if he felt Jing Xis gaze, Lou Ziling raised his head from the pile of messy documents and looked at Jing Xi.
Caught staring at him, Jing Xi hurriedly lowered her head and pretended to be reading a document.
But thinking about it, there was nothing to feel guilty about. She just looked at him, so what?
Jing Xi immediately raised her head and looked at Lou Ziling.
Their eyes met again. Lou Zilings eyes were gentle as if she was epting all her willfulness.
Jing Xi blinked, suspecting that she was seeing things.
How could a man as cold as Lou Ziling be gentle?
Even if he did, he definitely wouldnt be gentle to her. The warmest time she had seen him was when he took care of his sister Lou ruofei.
Jing Xi was worried that she would be bewitched by him again, so she lowered her head and stopped looking into Lou Zilings eyes.
Liar! She muttered softly.
Lou Ziling didnt stay for long. After she finished her work, she hurried back to the Lou group to work.
From then on, he woulde to Luo Feiyangspany every day and walk around. asionally, he would ask a few seemingly random questions and then leave in a hurry.
A few dayster, Lou Ziling was sitting in the main seat in Luo Feiyangs office. She looked at the three people standing in front of her and said in a formal tone,The three of you, report the progress and difficulties in the past few days!
Luo Feiyang rolled his eyes.Its only been five days. What progress can we make? Youe here every day, dont you know what it is like? Thepany is still like that, half dead!
Lou Ziling looked at him coldly,five days have passed and theres still no progress? How much of a failure are you as a leader? What was the reason? What was the mistake? How to improve? I want to see your reform n tomorrow morning!
I dont know how toe up with a n!
Ill learn!
Lou Ziling said indifferently. Then, she ignored him and turned to Ji moxuan and Jing Xi.The two of you,e up with a n each.
Ji mo Xuan frowned.Feiyang has already written it. Why do you still want us to write it? whats the point of having so much?
He had never seen Ji Bo write any proposal before. In his impression, a leader like Ji Bo would just have a meeting, have a meal and sign the papers. He was rxed and rxed. Proposals were all made by a special nning Department.
Lou Zilings expression didnt change, but her tone was tough.If you dont feel like writing, you can sleep at home and be the young master of the Ji family. You dont have toe tomorrow.
This is Feiyangspany, not yours. You dont have the final say!
Ji moxuan had been holding his breath for the past few days. He thought that he was no worse than Lou Ziling in all aspects, but he had been pped in the face a few days ago. He tried hard to turn the tables and prove himself in front of Jing Xi.
Now that Lou Ziling was forcing him to leave, Ji moxuans tone was not good.
Lou Zilings tone was even worse than Ji moxuan s.Yes, this is Luo Feiyangspany. I sacrificed my personal time to save a smallpany. Do I have nothing better to do?
What do you mean by a smallpany? Jing Xi red at him.Weve been running it with great care. We just dont have enough experience. What right do you have tough at us? Did you know how to run apany from the start?
Lou Ziling suddenly stood up and walked to Jing Xi. He looked into Jing Xis eyes and said,Qualifications? Ive transformed the Lou group from a smallpany with a turnover of less than ten million Yuan into a big group with a turnover of tens of billions in three years!
Besides, I dont need the qualifications. The quality of this logisticspany has nothing to do with me. Is myck of experience an excuse? Heart? I dont see these two words from the three of you. Youre toozy to evene up with a proposal, and you call this effort?
Lou Zilings tone was so harsh and cold that Jing Xi felt like he was a stranger.
Her eyes were slightly red as she raised her head and questioned him,Why are you so fierce? Cant you talk things out? Youve earned tens of billions, so youre amazing, okay?
Tears welled up in her eyes. Lou Zilings aura suddenly disappeared.
Damn it, he was so engrossed in his work that he forgot that the girl in front of him was not his employee, but Jing Xi, who he had been hiding in his heart and did not dare to let anyone know.
Lou Zilings voice lowered. She no longer sounded overbearing. Instead, it was unbelievably gentle.You guys did well. I said the wrong thing. Im not that great. Im still far from it. Dont cry
Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan looked at him in shock. Their eyes were wide open as if they didnt know who Lou Ziling was!
Someone as strong and sharp as him could actually admit his mistake?
They had just been scolded like dogs, but why did Jing Xi change so much? The contrast was too great!
However, once Lou Ziling admitted his mistake, Jing Xi felt even more aggrieved and tears fell one after another.
She felt terrible. She knew that she didnt do a good job. She wanted to do a good job and let Lou Ziling see that she wasnt worse than him.
However, he had suddenly pointed out all the problems and mercilessly exposed their failure. She felt extremely embarrassed.
For the past few days, she could see Lou Ziling every day, but she could only look at him. She couldnt get close to him, and she had no reason to get close to him.
She wanted to forget him, so why did he still appear in front of her every day?
Every day after work, Jing Xi would tell herself that this was thest day and that she could note back tomorrow.
However, the next morning, she would lose control of herself and abandon everything toe here.
Jing Xi cried so sadly that Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan were stunned. They had never seen Jing Xi cry before!
She had always been like a little princess who was not afraid of anything. Whoever bullied her, she would immediately bully them back. She was optimistic and happy like an Invincible Iron Man!
Lou Ziling looked at the two of them and said,You guys write a proposal and hand it to me tomorrow!
After giving them their homework, he took Jing Xis hand and quickly left thepany, bringing Jing Xi into his car.
Jing Xi felt a little embarrassed that she had cried out of the blue. He wiped his tears away and got out of the car. Why are you pulling me into your car? I want to go back!
Lou Ziling pulled her into her arms and put her arms around her waist. She said in a low voice, Dont go back. Ill take you for lunch.
Jing Xis heart was beating fast as he hugged her.
Lou Zilings clothes were so thin that Jing Xi could even feel the heat from his body.
This intimacy was too sudden!
Why is Lou Ziling bing more and more abnormal recently?
Jing Xi pushed him away.Let go of me. Go and take your girlfriend. Im going back to work on the proposal.
Lou Ziling gently lifted her delicate chin.Isnt my girlfriend in my arms?

Chapter 1519: A confession
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xis heart beat faster. She couldnt stand Lou Zilings gentleness and teasing!
He clearly knew that she liked him, but he still said such things. Did he want her to be consigned to eternal damnation?
Jing Xi struggled to escape. She wanted to leave the small space in the car. The ambiguous feeling rose sharply, and she felt her whole body heat up.
Who did not want her?
Who was so cruel to chase her away?
Who was the one who stood by and watched her get beaten up by his girlfriend?
Lou Ziling could tell that Jing Xi wanted to escape. He pressed Jing Xi against the back of the chair and pressed his chest against hers, imprisoning her in that small area. He held her hand and did not let her move.
Their bodies were so close that Lou Ziling could feel Jing Xis curves.
Her chest seemed to be getting fuller and fuller, and her seventeen-year-old body was so developed that it was hard to take ones eyes off her.
Lou Ziling, what are you doing? You werent like this before, Im going to get angry!
Jing Xi was very shy, because she could clearly feel Lou Zilings strong chest pressing against her little white rabbit.
Lou Ziling used to be a gentleman. Even if she hugged him, he would keep a distance from her and not take advantage of her.
But now
She could hear Lou Zilings breathing getting faster and faster as if she was trying to hold back something.
Xixi
Lou Zilings voice was low and sexy. It was suppressed and restrained, but it still revealed a trace of lust.
I wasnt like this in the past, but Ill be like this from now on Xixi
His voice seemed to be murmuring, with an undetectable affection and gentleness, which made Jing Xis heart quickly fall into his.
He was pressing hard against her chest, one hand around her waist, and the other intertwined with her fingers.
Xixi, everyone else is fake, including Li Jing. Im only in a business rtionship with her. Shes not my girlfriend. I made a mistake. Dont be angry. Ive changed, okay?
Xixi, Ive been holding back for a long time, and I cant take it anymore. I know Im not good enough for you, but Im willing to work hard. I want to protect you, and I want to do my best
Xixi, dont leave me. I cant stand it without you
Xixi
Jing Xis heart was beating like a drum, and her clear eyes were full of disbelief.
Lou Ziling liked her? Have you liked her for a long time?
No way!
It didnt look like it!
Was she dreaming again?
Would Lou Ziling still say such warm words?
Jing Xi bit her lip subconsciously, trying to verify if she was dreaming.
Lou Ziling lowered her head and kissed her before she bit her.
Her lips were soft, sweet, and fragrant. It was the most beautiful taste Lou Ziling had ever tasted in her life.
His kiss was gentle and rough, as if he was afraid of scaring her.
But Jing Xi was really frightened.
This was a huge blow to her!
She wasnt ready, but Lou Ziling seemed to be in control of everything. Her mind and body followed him subconsciously.
Was this how kissing felt like?
Her heart felt as if it was about to jump out of her chest. Her entire body felt weak, and her mind was nk. There was only a sweet feeling surrounding her, and she did not want to wake up.
Jing Xi gently closed her eyes, feeling shy and sweet.
The gentle kiss only ended after an unknown amount of time.
Lou Ziling only touched her lightly. He put his chin on Jing Xis forehead and hugged her tightly, not willing to let go.
Jing Xi leaned on him and asked softly,Lou Ziling, are you lying to me?
Lou Ziling held her hand and ced it on her chest, letting her feel her heartbeat.Did I lie to you?
Jing Xi silently counted his heartbeat for a while and found that his heart was beating faster than hers. She smiled and her eyes were filled with joy.
Lou Ziling lowered her head slightly and kissed her forehead. After that, she felt that it was not enough, so she kissed her again and again.
Jing Xis eyshes fluttered. She had never felt so happy before!
She hugged Lou Zilings waist and buried her face in his warm chest. She smiled foolishly.
Lou Ziling, have you kissed anyone before? she suddenly asked after a while.
No, youre the first one, Lou Ziling said slowly.Do I look like someone who would kiss anyone?
I dont know about that. You have so many girlfriends, who knows which one youve kissed? I havent kissed anyone else, but if youre not, wouldnt I be at a disadvantage?
Lou Ziling felt helpless. He was afraid that Jing Xi would talk about his girlfriend countless times in the future.
He gently stroked Jing Xis hair and said in a low voice,I already said that those people were fake. Why are you still jealous?
He was so gentle that Jing Xi couldnt resist him. Blushing, she hugged Lou Zilings neck and kissed his chin shyly.
Lou Ziling couldnt stand her taking the initiative.
He grabbed Jing Xis head and pressed her down in the car, pressing his whole body on top of her.
Her lips were bright and tender. Lou Ziling couldnt help but gently bite them. Hearing Jing Xis soft moan, he seemed to be encouraged and began to plunder her.
By the time the long and domineering kiss ended, both of them were already short of breath and their hearts were beating like a drum.
Jing Xis face was already red. She had already felt the changes in Lou Zilings body, but she was too embarrassed to say it.
She was very familiar with the body structure of both men and women. Although she had no experience, she had a lot of theories and knew what Lou Zilings change meant.
You You Get up first
Lou Ziling didnt move. He was still on top of Jing Xi. He didnt care about the changes in his body. He kissed Jing Xis forehead and said in a low voice,I was afraid of scaring you in the past, so I didnt dare to let you know my secret. Now it seems that you knew it long ago, right?
You can even talk about this?
Jing Xi was so embarrassed that she wanted to crawl into the car.
I dont know, I dont know anything! Youre so bad, youve never been so thick-skinned before!
Lou Ziling chuckled. She thought that Jing Xi was very cute.
It was a pity that she was still a little young, so he couldnt bear to eat her.
Its broken now? Hell be even worse in the future. Why dont I show you how bad he is first?
Jing Xi looked at Lou Ziling in shock. This man used to be a stone-like man. How did he be like this?
She reached out her hand and touched Lou Zilings face.Are you you? Did you change your soul?
Lou Ziling grabbed her hand and kissed it. Of course Im me. Not used to it? I cant help it. I cant control myself now. I can see you every day, but I still have to keep a distance from you. This requires strong perseverance. Youll slowly get used to it
She was by his side now. He could see and touch her, and he was surrounded by her scent. It was fragrant and beautiful.
Xixi, grow up quickly
Isnt it big enough?Jing Xi asked, a little shy.
Chapter 1520
Chapter 1520: Sweet
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling was stunned for a moment, but then she understood what Jing Xi meant.
He held Jing Xi in his arms and chuckled in her ear.
Jing Xi had never heard Lou Zilingugh like this. She always thought that Lou Ziling was too reserved and calm, without any human emotions. It turned out that hisughter was so pleasant.
What are youughing at? Ive really grown up. I used to be a little bun, but now Im a big bun!
Jing Xis face turned red.
Lou Zilingughed even harder after hearing that.
He knew that she was different from the rest. How could she describe herself like that?
He picked Jing Xi up and looked down at her full chest. His eyes were slightly hot, and he felt his mouth go dry.
When Jing Xi said that, she didnt think it was a big deal. But when she saw Lou Ziling staring at her chest, she subconsciously crossed her arms and red at Lou Ziling. Dont do this, I I feel ufortable
Lou Ziling stretched out his hand. That feeling made his blood boil!
Xixi, youre so soft, and I cant even hold you with one hand. What did you eat? I remember that she used to be very young
Jing Xis face was burning as if it was on fire.
Lou Ziling, who looked like a cold President, was so stimting when she said sweet words.
So? So he had been paying attention to her chest all this time?
This scoundrel, pretending to be an upright gentleman, but he was actually full of evil tricks! She had been tricked!
Jing Xi smacked the hand away and tried to control her breathing. She suppressed the wild beating of her heart and said,Lou Ziling, youve been corrupted. Give me back the cold and arrogant Lou Ziling!
Lou Ziling leaned against the back of the car seat and pulled Jing Xi into her arms. She said half-jokingly,If Im cold and aloof, youll despise me for being fierce to you again. How would I dare?
Jing Xi felt that something was wrong today. She was not familiar with this Lou Ziling. She knew how tough, y tricks, and joke. This was a huge contrast from the previous Lou Ziling!
She suddenly held Lou Zilings face and asked seriously,Where did we first meet? When was that?
Lou Zilingughed and said helplessly,dont be silly. Theres no need to doubt me. My soul wasnt reced. Arent you always a materialistic person? Why are you starting to believe in ghosts and gods?
He liked it when Jing Xi held his face and spoke to him like this. From this action, he could tell that she cherished him.
It was a wonderful feeling to be cherished by her. Lou Ziling felt her heart soften. She hated herself for realizing it toote and making her sad for so long.
He couldnt bear to let Jing Xi leave, so he took her to a restaurant for lunch.
Lou Ziling parked the car, went to the other side of the car, opened the door for Jing Xi, and let her get out with her head under her protection.
Jing Xi felt so happy that she stepped on the hard ground and felt a little bit more real.
There were many people in the restaurant for lunch. Lou Ziling didnt care about the gazes of the people around her. She took her hand and led her into the restaurant.
Jing Xi was still active in A citys school when she was young. After she grew up, she spent most of her time abroad, and very few people in A city knew her.
However, Lou Ziling was the leader of the young entrepreneurs in A city. He was even the dream lover of countless young girls. Many people knew him.
Many people were looking at Jing Xi, but she didnt care. Lou Ziling frowned slightly. He didnt want Jing Xi to be exposed.
But he couldnt just shake off Jing Xis hand and pretend not to know her.
He had no choice but to take Jing Xi into a private room in the restaurant.
Even so, Jing Xi was still a little unhappy. She sat in front of the wooden table with fine lines and pouted.Why are you walking so fast? In the past, when you were dating your girlfriends, you would let anyone else take photos of you and publish them in the newspapers. Why are you not willing to make it public when its my turn?
Lou Ziling ruffled her hair and said,Of course not. Its just that youre different from them. I dont want the media to cause you any trouble.
The knot in his heart had always been there, and it had not disappeared even now.
He didnt want to take advantage of Jing Xi. Even if it was an unintentional use, it would still make him suffer.
Once the media exposed his rtionship with Jing Xi, countless people woulde to him to make connections and to cooperate with him.
It was the same when his rtionship with Li Jing was exposed.
He could use Li Jings reputation to make money, but he didnt want to make a single cent from Jing Xi.
He was still not strong enough.
Jing Xi felt a little strange when she saw Lou Ziling, who was sitting opposite her, had returned to his usual calm and indifferent self. It was as if he was not the one who had been naughty in the car.
Well Lou Ziling, you dont have a split personality, do you?
Lou Zilings head hurt. He was cold to her. She thought he was too fierce. He was passionate to her. She thought he was a hooligan. He was neither cold nor warm to her. She said he had a split personality!
He took a sip of water, put down the cup, and said unhurriedly,Come here!
Ah, where are we going?
Come to my side.
Confused, Jing Xi stood up and walked to Lou Zilings side. Just as she was about to say something, Lou Ziling grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms. She sat on hisp.
Jing Xi cried out in surprise, embarrassed and angry. She reached out her small fist and hit him.What are you doing? its time to eat. Let go of me!
Lou Ziling kissed her pink cheeks and suddenly felt that the touch was wonderful. She kissed her two more times before she looked up reluctantly and said seriously,You eatter, and Ill eat you. This way, you wont feel that I have a split personality or that Im possessed by a ghost.
They were outside! How could he kiss and hug her, and speak without restraint!
Jing Xi waspletely defeated by Lou Zilings shamelessness. Was he crazy?
Put me down. I wont doubt you. Youre very normal and handsome!
Yes, I know that. Lou Ziling nodded and said matter-of-factly,Sit down properly and dont move. Otherwise, I cant guarantee what will happenter. You should know that Im not in the mood to eat right now. My mind is full of you.
The confession came without warning. Jing Xis heart was beating wildly. She never knew that Lou Ziling was so good at sweet-talking!
He said such affectionate and ambiguous words with an indifferent expression. Coupled with his hot breath and body temperature, Jing Xi felt that she could not resist him at all.
Dont be like this If the waiteres in and sees this, hellugh at me
Who would dare? Ill fire whoeverughs!
Chapter 1521
Chapter 1521: Pampering
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xis eyes shed with surprise.This restaurant is yours?
Yes, its mine,
Lou Zilings expression was calm as she focused on the girl in her arms.
He had always known that she was pretty, but now that he was so close to her, he realized how beautiful she was.
The midday sun shone through the window and shone on her face. Her white skin was covered in ayer of soft light, so delicate and translucent that one could almost see her blue blood vessels.
She was wearing a light yellow knitted dress with long sleeves. Her long hair fell over her shoulders, and she was beautiful and gentle. She looked like ady from a good family when she didnt speak. No one would have thought that she would be like an angry little lion when she was angry, biting and hitting.
Her facial features were perfect, and her eyes were like clear Springs. She seemed to be able to speak, and even her fingers were as slender as Jade. At first nce, it was obvious that her fingers had not touched the spring water. She was a little princess from a well-off family.
Lou Ziling had been in the business world for a long time and had met countless women.
Not to mention other things, he already had seven girlfriends in name, and each of them was a rich youngdy who always dressed up very well.
However, no one could bepared to Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling felt that he could not find another girl who was more outstanding than Jing Xi.
He was a little apprehensive and couldnt help but ask in a low voice,Xixi, will you regret this when you grow up?
What do you regret?
Jing Xi raised her head and looked into Lou Zilings eyes. Her voice was soft, like she was acting coquettishly, but also like she was whispering,Ive already grown up. Are you afraid that Ill regret liking you? Ive always liked you, dont you know that Youre not allowed to think of me like that, Ill be sad.
I dont have much money, and my Foundation is shallow
She leaned her face against Lou Zilings chest and said softly,Youre already very rich, and I dontck money. As for the foundation, what was the point of having it so deep? Are you afraid that I will use the Jing familys power to bully you?
She had deliberately misunderstood his meaning. Lou Ziling felt warm in his heart. He knew that Jing Xi did not care about these things. He had always been the one who cared about these external things.
Her love was purer than his.
When the waiter came in and saw Jing Xi sitting on his bosssp, his jaw almost dropped in shock. His boss had brought a girl to eat here before, but he had never entered the private room before. He always ate outside, and he had always been extremely cold and ignored everyone. Why was he holding a girl in the private room so Intimate today?
Although she was surprised, the waitress didnt dare to look at Jing Xi. No restaurant had a waitress staring at a customer, not to mention that the customer might be the bosss woman.
The waiter quicklyid out the dishes and left the private room.
It wasnt that she was a coward, but Lou Zilings eyes were so sharp that her legs were trembling.
No wonder none of the waiters in the restaurant was willing to deliver food when they heard that the boss wasing. They all knew that he was too scary!
She had originally thought that the boss was so handsome, young, and rich, so why didnt any of the female employees in the restaurant miss him? This was too illogical and too curious.
But today, she seemed to understand a little.
When Lou Ziling was staring at her, she felt as if she was being seen through. She couldnt hide any of her thoughts. Her eyes were as cold as a knife. For some reason, it made her scalp numb and she wanted to stay away from him.
The girl sitting in his arms had a strong mental strength. She could actually resist his fierce aura!
However, Jing Xi, who had a strong mind, did not feel that Lou Zichen was fierce at all. She only felt that he was very gentle now, coaxing and pampering her like a child.
Open your mouth,
I dont want this. Ill get fat if I eat it.
Lou Ziling brought the spoon to Jing Xis lips and said,As long as its you, Ill like you. Youre not allowed to diet just to lose weight. You dont look good if you lose weight, and you dont feel good to the touch.
Jing Xi opened her mouth and ate the meatball in her spoon. She snorted and pinched Lou Zilings waist.Thest sentence is the main point, right?
Lou Ziling smiled and kissed Jing Xi.Imcking in experience in this area. Ill try more in the future. Ill have a greater sense of achievement if I feed you until youre fat.
He didnt really care if Jing Xi was fat or thin. He just wanted to feed her.
He had wanted to do this for a long time, but he thought he was crazy, so he had suppressed it and never let Jing Xi know.
Hugging her and feeding her made Lou Ziling feel like she was in a dream.
She was in his arms. This was his girl. It was great!
He had ordered all of Jing Xis favorite dishes. She was not a picky eater and was easy to take care of, but she preferred meat.
In the past, Jing Xi had always been afraid that she would get fat if she ate too much. In order to slim down, she would always give all her food to Lou Ziling.
At this moment, Lou Ziling was only feeding her and not herself. Jing Xi was not happy.Why arent you eating? you cant let me gain weight alone. You have to grow with me!
She sat on Lou Zilings body, shaking her legs and happily putting food into Lou Zilings bowl.
Lou Ziling had always been a picky eater, but he never refused anything that Jing Xi fed him, and her habit of being a picky eater was cured.
This was the most full Lou Ziling had ever eaten, and it also took the longest time.
He had learned his lesson. Next time he had a meal with Jing Xi, he could not order so many dishes!
She didnt want to eat too much, she didnt like to waste food, and she especially liked to feed Lou Ziling. Lou Ziling was d that the portions of each dish in his restaurant were very small!
If Jing Xi didnt gain weight, he would gain ten pounds first!
When she walked out of the restaurant, a couple walked towards her.
The man had a big belly and was so fat that he was panting as he walked. He had only a few strands of hair left. The woman beside him was slender, elegant, and beautiful. She held his arm and called him hubby, smiling and talking to him.
Lou Ziling felt sweat on her forehead. No, no, I cant eat too much!
Jing Xi wanted to keep her figure, but he needed it more! He was seven years older than Jing Xi!
As Lou Ziling was thinking, she felt a pain in her arm.
Hiss!
Lou Ziling gasped.Xixi, if youre not full, you can eat something else. You dont have to tear my meat to eat, right?
Hmph! Jing Xi snorted.Who told you to look at beautiful women? You even dared to look at me when I was standing beside you. If I wasnt here, would you have gone up to ask for my number?
That woman already has a husband! Lou Ziling didnt know whether tough or cry.
Oh, you can read it without a husband?
Jing Xis eyes were dangerous. Lou Ziling did not hesitate for a second and immediately admitted her mistake.
No, whats so good about that woman! I was looking at her husband, but theres nothing to look at about her husband! You pinched me right, Im only looking at you!

Chapter 1522: Why didnt you even say goodnight?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi nodded in satisfaction. She agreed with Lou Zilings self-awareness.
Send me back to Luo Feiyangspany. Im going back to work.
Lou Ziling didnt want to send her back at all. Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyangs pursuit of Jing Xi was already written all over their faces. If they sent Jing Xi back, wouldnt they be sending her back to the Wolfs Den?
Dont go. Go home. Hows yourpany doing?
My familyspany is already developing very well and theres no need for me to intervene at all. Those senior executives all have decades of work experience. Its Luo Feiyangspany. Its the perfect time for me to practice!
Jing Xi felt that shecked practical experience and should explore more. Besides, she didnt want Lou Ziling to look down on her.
Li Jing was able to run such a hugepany by herself, and Jing Xi knew that she couldnt do it.
If she were to be the president of Jingsheng enterprise, she might not be able to eat anymore.
Fortunately, she was only seventeen years old and learned things quickly. With the experience she had now, she would not be worse than Li Jing in the future.
Besides, didnt you give me a mission? I have to go back and write a proposal!
Jing Xis tone was a little teasing. Lou Ziling felt helpless. He had really dug a deep hole for himself!
He still had a lot of things to do at thepany. He couldnt stay with Jing Xi at Luo Feiyangspany all the time, so he could only send Jing Xi there.
When Lou Ziling returned to Lous group, his assistant, Wu Shen, could clearly feel that his boss was in a good mood.
It was simply amazing that there were times when boss actually had a smile on his face!
If he reported some bad news, Lou Ziling wouldnt be angry, right?
President, weve lost half of our clients in the past month, and the number of people terminating their contracts is still increasing. This is because You asked me to release the news that youve broken up with Miss Li.
Lou Zilings rxed expression disappeared.I understand. Calm the people down. Ill take care of the rest.
The termination of the contract was not entirely because of this news. Lou Ziling knew that Li Jing must have done something in the dark.
He took care of many things, and in the evening, he drove to Li Jings residence.
President Lou, youre missing me already? Are you dreaming of me?
Li Jing was wearing a bright red chiffon dress. Standing among the flowers, she looked more eye-catching than the colorful flowers.
The spring wind blew her loose skirt and her long hair fluttered in the wind. She thought she was beautiful, but Lou Ziling only felt that she was a demon.
Lou Ziling knew very well that Li Jing didnt like him, but every time he came, she would try her best to create a perfect mood and highlight her own appearance and body.
The scene was undoubtedly beautiful, but this kind of beauty was too deliberate, which made Lou Ziling feel disgusted.
He only had one feeling for Li Jing-she was a lunatic who was empty and lonely.
It was because she was so empty that her obsession with Jing Rui had reached a terrifying level.
She didntck anything. Money, power, beauty, she onlycked a man who was outstanding in all aspects and could make her willingly submit to him.
She was already twenty-nine years old, and the most beautiful years of a womans life had been wasted.
Lou Ziling looked coldly at Li Jing, who was standing among the flowers and treating herself like a flower Fairy. She suddenly felt very sad.
He coldly broke Li Jings fantasy.No one misses you, but I want you to give me an exnation. Our contract has been terminated and we have nothing to do with each other. You destroyed my client. Are you trying to kill me?
As long as youre in a rtionship with me, all your clients will go back automatically. Youd better marry me. Otherwise, the big corporation that youve worked so hard to build will soon go bankrupt, just like Luo Feiyangspany!
Youre the one who did something to Luo Feiyangspany?Lou Ziling frowned.
Aiya, youre wrong. Im not interested in that lousypany of his at all. Besides, the Li family and the Luo family have never had any conflicts. I dont have to touch Luo Yis son.
Even though Li Jing didnt admit it, Lou Ziling still felt that Li Jing must have nted someone in Luo Feiyangspany.
However, this was not the time to be fussing over such things.
Our contract was originally only for half a year, and it has already expired. Its not easy to make mypany go bankrupt. Do you think Im Luo Feiyang?
Lou Zilings voice was calm and she exuded a strong sense of confidence.If the Lou Corporation goes bankrupt, the Li familyspany will also be ruined!
Li Jing suddenly frowned.Lou Ziling, I dont think youre in the right state. You used to be a person who would do anything for thepanys development. Howe youre so calm even when thepany is going bankrupt?
She thought for a while before looking at him suspiciously.In your heart, isnt your career the number one?
Lou Ziling stood there coldly and didnt speak.
Li Jing suddenly understood andughed madly.Hahaha, Lou Ziling, are you stupid or crazy? You would rather go bankrupt for a woman? Do you think that the little princess of family Jing will still like you after you have lost everything?
This is none of your business!
Lou Zilings eyes were full of warning.Youd better not cause her any trouble. Otherwise, youll have endless trouble!
Li Zhis smile disappeared and she said coldly,This is not fair! Im the most beautiful and outstanding one, are you all blind?
It was fine that Jing Rui did not like her. The Jing family was a business empire and was even more powerful than the Li family. As the heir, Jing Rui was qualified to be the king who looked down on her.
Who the hell is this Lou Ziling? He actually didnt like her!
Li Jing looked at Lou Ziling from head to toe and felt disdainful. It was just a small family. Even if thepany had developed, it had no foundation and could be easily destroyed.
Family Jing was a deep-rooted family that had spies in all walks of life. They had a strong background in the political and military circles.
What about the Lou family? He had nothing!
If it wasnt for Lou Zilings outstanding talent and intelligence, the Lou family would still be an unremarkable small family.
But the more unmoved a man was towards Li Jing, the stronger her desire to conquer him would be. Even if she couldnt have him, she would destroy him and not let anyone else have him.
How could such a handsome, young, and promising man be taken advantage of by other women?
Li Jing gave a strange smile and pped her hands. A group of men in ck rushed out from all directions and surrounded Lou Ziling.
It waste at night. Jing Xiy on the soft bed, unable to fall asleep.
Usually, she would be asleep at this time, but today, she could not fall asleep no matter what.
Lou Ziling had confessed to her. ording tomon sense, even if he was not good with words, he should at least send her a message and say good night, right?
Why didnt he even say goodnight?

Chapter 1523: A sin that he must havemitted in his past life
Trantor: 549690339
Just as Jing Xi was getting a little angry, her phone beeped. She had received a multimedia message.
The sender was Lou Ziling.
Jing Xis heart immediately jumped. She clicked on the multimedia message with anticipation, and a picture popped up.
In the photo, Lou Zilings firm chest was exposed as she and Li Jingy on the bed in an intimate and intimate position.
Jing Xis face turned pale, and her fingers were shaking.
She suddenly sat up on the bed. She was so angry that she almost lost her mind.
The phone rang again. Jing Xi opened it with a shaking finger, and a text message came into her sight:
Xixi, go to bed early. Zilings with me. Weve had some intense exercise tonight, and hes fallen asleep from exhaustion. How about I let you use him tomorrow night?
Jing Xi felt all the blood in her body rush to the top of her head. She was so angry that she almost wanted to smash her phone.
She jumped off the bed and quickly changed out of her pajamas into white sportswear. She carried a small ck bag filled with bottles, guns, and bullets, and went out murderously.
Jing Yichen was always alert when he was sleeping. He woke up immediately when he heard the sound of the door opening and closing.
When he went to Jing Xis room, he knew that his daughter had gone out in the middle of the night.
He shook his head helplessly. He didnt know what the little devil was up to this time, and he didnt know who she had gone to cause trouble in the middle of the night.
He called the bodyguards and ordered them to follow Jing Xi closely, in case she provoked a powerful opponent and suffered a loss.
Li Jing didnt expect Jing Xi toe to her in the middle of the night.| The door came!
And his movements were so fast!
His behavior Was so violent!
At this moment, her entire vi was shaking, and the crystal lights on the ceiling were constantly colliding, making a tinkling sound.
Outside, the sound of explosions reverberated through the entire A city!
The red mes soared into the sky, lighting up the dark night as if it were day!
Li Jing was both shocked and angry. How did this wretched girl know her address? Did Lou Ziling tell her?
They knew that she and Lou Ziling were still in the vi. They wanted to blow up the vi and bury them alive!
Didnt she like Lou Ziling to death?
Dont they care about Lou Zilings life?
Li Jing red at the unconscious Lou Ziling. She quickly got up from the bed, put some clothes on Lou Ziling, and dragged him out.
The vi was on fire, and the ceiling had exploded. Things kept falling and hitting Li Jing.
The originally spacious and luxurious living room was filled with thick smoke and tear gas. Li Jing had only taken a few steps when she felt like she was suffocating!
Men! Someonee quickly! Where the hell did you all go!
Li Jing anxiously called out to her bodyguards, but there was no one around.
Fortunately, she had undergone brutal training. Her willpower and reaction speed were extraordinary. Even if the sky was falling, she could still quickly wet a towel with tea, cover her mouth and nose, and drag the tall Lou Ziling out with one hand.
As for whether Lou Ziling was injured, she didnt care!
Hed better be seriously injured so that Jing Xi would be heartbroken!
But now, she had to make sure Lou Ziling was alive. She couldnt burn him in the vi. Otherwise, she would have no trump card in her hand today. How could she confront Jing Xi?
Li Jing dragged Lou Ziling out of the fire and ran into the angry Jing Xi.
Behind Jing Xi was arge group of bodyguards wearing gas masks. In the open space in front of Jing Xi, there were Men in ck lying on the ground. They were Li Jings bodyguards.
Jing Xi raised the gun in her hand and pointed it at Li Jings forehead.Throw Lou Ziling here and Ill let you die a quick death!
Li Zhi stomped her feet in anger. Her face was covered in tears, not because of anger or fear, but because of the tear gas.
She felt that she must havemitted a great sin in her past life to meet a demon like Jing Xi in this life!
Did this girl even know what the bottom line was?
They had blown up her vi and pointed a gun at her to take her life. Were they not afraid of her crazy revenge?
Did she really think that the Li family was a small family like the Lou family?
Let me leave this ce first and I will let Lou Ziling go. If you dare to act rashly, I will cut his blood vessels right now!
Li Jing dragged the unconscious Lou Ziling and let him lean on her. She had a sharp de in her hand and she pressed it against Lou Zilings carotid artery.
Dont bargain with me. You dont have the right to bargain now!
Jing Xi nced at Lou Ziling, who was in a mess, and her anger rose.
He had been sweet-talking her during the day, but at night, he hade to Li Jings ce to curry favor? Or was he also a victim?
Hmph, thats impossible. With Lou Zilings intelligence and ability, how could she be the victim?
Jing Xi was in a dilemma. One voice in her mind said that Lou Ziling really liked her, while the other voice said that Lou Ziling was just acting and lying to her.
But no matter which voice was louder, Jing Xi would not let Lou Ziling die.
Give me Lou Ziling!
Li Jings tears were still flowing, but she sneered.Back off and stay away from me, or Ill kill him now!
She grabbed Lou Ziling and rushed through the crowd, quickly looking for the best escape route.
Lou Ziling was tall, and carrying him would slow Li Jing down. She was sure that with Lou Ziling in her hands, Jing Xi wouldnt dare to shoot, so she ran around without any hesitation.
Li Jing waited until she was far enough to make sure that she was out of the shooting range of the gun before she threw Lou Ziling away and quickly disappeared into the night.
Jing Xi slowly approached Lou Ziling with her gun raised.
She was not as reckless as Li Jing had thought. She cared about Lou Ziling and the Li familys power. Her brother had always maintained a bnce with the Li family. She would not kill anyone to avoid bringing disaster to the family.
Lou Ziling was sent to family MUs Hospital. He had light physical injuries, but the anesthetic in his body was too high. He would not wake up for a while.
Jing Xi thanked mu Sen and stayed by Lou Zilings side. She already knew that everything that happened today was Li Jings doing.
If Lou Ziling was lying on Li Jings bed of her own ord, she wouldnt have had to give Lou Ziling the anesthetic.
Even if it didnt work, Li Jing should have used spring.| Medicine should be the right thing to do.
Jing Xi guessed that Li Jing might not have been able to make Lou Ziling submit to her at first, so she had used arge amount of anesthetic.
When she wanted to use the aphrodisiac again, Lou Ziling was already unconscious. She didnt use too little of the aphrodisiac. If she used too much, Lou Ziling would die. That was why she didnt use it.

Chapter 1524: Its others who suffer

The next morning, a piece of news ignited the passion of the people in A city for gossip.
The young President of Lous group cheated on the little princess of the Jing family when he was in a rtionship with Miss Li. Miss Li posted a group photote at night to demonstrate her power. In a fit of anger, little princess Jing turned into a little devil and blew up Miss Li and President Lous love nest. President Lou was blown up and was in aa. He had been lying in the hospital since.
After that, all kinds of rumors and gossip were flying around, and Jing Xi wasbeled as a third party,witch and cruel.
After reading the news on the newspaper and mobile phone, Jing Xi sneered in her heart. Li Jing was so fast!
Just as she was thinking about how to win back another round, her phone rang.
Jing Xi picked it up and said in a calm voice,Mom, are you worried about me? Dont worry, Im fine. Its someone else whos at a disadvantage!
Shangguan ning swallowed all the questions she wanted to ask. She said helplessly, Its good that you can protect yourself. Dont use any explosives in the future. What if you hurt yourself? You dont have to worry about the rumors, your brother has already gone to resolve it.
Hearing her mothers voice, Jing Xi felt very warm. She finally smiled.Aiya, mom, you just have to give birth to a few more brothers for me then. If I dont like the look of anyone, I can have a few brothers together and Ill be invincible!
Shangguan ning said in her heart,you have a brother and a cousin who have both been through a lot in the killer organization. They are invincible even if they fight together.
If she had a few more brothers, her daughter would have to rush out of Earth and go to Mars to find trouble!
People said that daughters were sweet little cotton jackets, but her daughter was a bomb that would go off at the slightest spark.
Shangguan ning was deeply worried about Lou Ziling. She tried to persuade Jing Xi,Xixi, I saw on the news that Lou Ziling was injured in an explosion by you. He has protected you a few times. Dont hurt him. Lou Mingyang only has one son
Jing Xi did not know whether tough or cry.Mom, your daughter is not that cruel. Although I was a little aggressive yesterday, no one was seriously injured. Even that li guy was perfectly fine. Lou Ziling was not hurt! This is all Lis fault. She was the one who knocked Lou Ziling out.
Shangguan ning let out a sigh of relief. She didnt want anything to happen to her daughter.
The two of them chatted for a while before Jing Xi hung up the phone. When she turned around, she saw that Lou Ziling had already woken up and was looking at her with deep eyes.
Jing Xis lips curled up into a smile without a hint of a smile.President Lou is awake? Are you not happy to see me? But theres nothing I can do about it. Miss Li threw you to me, saying that she did some intense exercise with youst night, so shes giving you to me as a charity today.
Lou Ziling frowned slightly. Why was every word this girl said so harsh?
Did Li Jing provoke her again?
He reached out to hold Jing Xis hand, but he grabbed nothing.
Xixi, dont mess around. Theres nothing going on between me and Li Jing.
Lou Zilings voice was a little hoarse from theck of water for a long time. He was very thirsty, but his first reaction was not to drink water. Instead, he exined to Jing Xi about Li Jing.
Li Jing was right. She didnt feel bad for Lou Ziling. The one who really felt bad for her was Jing Xi.
Therefore, even though she was still angry, she put a ss of water on Lou Zilings bed.Drink some water, or you wont be able to do any intense exercise with your ex-girlfriend if you die of thirst!
She emphasized the word intense exercise. Lou Ziling asked in confusion,Did Li Jing tell you this? Do you think Ill touch her?
See for yourself! Jing Xi showed him the phone.Did you touch it?
Lou Ziling forced himself to sit up. He took his phone and looked at the photos and messages. He finally understood why Jing Xi was so prickly.
He quickly deleted the message and the photo, raised his head, and said softly,I was too careless and fell into her trap. Yesterday, I went to warn her not to interfere with mypanys Affairs, but the negotiations fell through. She probably used anesthesia on me. I dont know what happened in between.
Lou Ziling was honest and didnt try to defend herself, which made him seem like an upright person.
However, Jing Xi was still angry about the bed photo of Li Jing and Lou Ziling. Even if she blew up Li Jings Vi, it would not dispel her anger.
Lou Ziling had hugged someone elsest night. Even if he had been unconscious at the time, Jing Xi refused to be touched.
Her rejection was obvious. Lou Ziling smiled faintly. This girls mental mysophobia was not ordinary.
He picked up the ss of water that Jing Xi had poured for him and drank half of it in one go. After drinking, he looked puzzled.Xixi, why is the water sour?
Impossible! Jing Xi was stunned.
As she spoke, she snatched the cup and sniffed it. Then, she took another sip.Where is it sour? Are you losing your sense of taste?
Lou Ziling didnt say anything. She just looked at her and smiled.
Jing Xi immediately realized that Lou Ziling was saying that she was jealous.
She red at Lou Ziling angrily, but her heart softened as she stared at Lou Ziling.
His face was very pale, and his chin was injured yesterday. There was arge bruise.
There were also many wounds on his body under his clothes. They were all from the explosion in the vi yesterday.
Jing Xi felt a little sad. If she had known earlier, she would have just used tear gas and smoke bombs. She usually didnt feel anything when she was injured, but Lou Zilings injury hurt her very much.
In her mind, Lou Ziling had always been very strong and had never been injured.
He didnt expect her to be the one who injured him for the first time.
Jing Xi stood up slowly and said in a low voice,You rest, Im going home.
Lou Ziling didnt want her to leave. However, when she saw that she looked tired and her eyes were bloodshot, she knew that she must have stayed by his side the whole night.
Yes, lets go home! He nodded.
Lou Ziling left as soon as Jing Xi left the hospital.
The injuries on his body were all superficial. To Lou Ziling, they were nothing. The thing that affected him the most was the anesthetic Li Jing had given him.
However, the anesthetic had its benefits. At least, he didnt feel any pain from the superficial wounds.
His body condition was obviously not suitable for work. He took a taxi back to his small vi and then called his assistant, Wu Shen, on thendline.
Half an hourter, Wu Shen came back with a simple meal and a brand new phone. Lou Zilings phone was already buried in Li Jings Vi.
When Wu Shen saw Lou Zilings injured body, he wanted to say something but stopped. Lou Ziling replied indifferently,Whats the matter?
Wu Shen smiled bitterly.President, you should take a look at todays news on your phone. Youre On the headlines!
Chapter 1525
Chapter 1525: I was sent by Jing Xi!
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling drank some water and opened the news page on her phone. Then, her face turned colder and colder.
Lou Ziling didnt care if Li Jing ndered him, but he couldnt bear to see her ndering Jing Xi.
He had known that he would be attacked once his rtionship with Jing Xi was exposed, but he had been prepared to be attacked. He had never thought that the target of the attack would be Jing Xi!
Lou Zilings face darkened and she said coldly,Contact all the major media outlets. No matter how much money they want, remove all the news!
President, this Theyll take the opportunity to demand an exorbitant price. Were already short on funds.
Lou Ziling looked at Wu Shen coldly,Do as I say!
Wu Shen could only follow her orders. He knew that Jing Xi had a special ce in Lou Zilings heart. But now it seemed that Jing Xi was more important than he thought.
He left in a hurry and brought his men to the major media outlets to discuss canceling the news.
However, even though he was prepared to spend a lot of money, none of the media outlets were willing to ept his money.
By noon, there was not a single piece of news about Jing Xis nder. Even the gossip newspapers on the streets had almost all disappeared!
Wu Shen was shocked, but then he realized that there was a possibility that the Jing family had taken action.
Apart from family Jing, no one else had the ability to make the media bow their heads in such a short time.
The midday sun was shining brightly. Jing Zhi, dressed in ck, appeared silently behind Li Jing.
Li Zhis killers intuition shocked her. She quickly turned her head and retreated. She did not care that her clothes had fallen off and exposed arge part of her skin.
Miss Li, youre still as good as you used to be, Jing Zhi smiled devilishly.
Li Jings expression was serious as she slowly said,Mo Mei!
She had been waiting for Jing Rui, but it turned out that it was not Jing Rui who hade to settle the score with her.
Jing Zhiughed. He seemed very happy. Its rare for someone to know my name. Miss Li, you have such good eyes. If I kill you, wont I lose an admirer?
Li Jings body was on full alert. She wasnt in the mood to joke.
No one knew Jing Rui and Jing Zhis abilities better than she did. Although Jing Rui was ranked first among the new killers in the killer organization, Jing Zhi was the most powerful one.
Li Jing had seen Jing Ruis full power. Although he was strong, it was still within the normal range of a human.
However, Li Jing had never seen Jing Zhi in action. Those who had seen him in action were all dead.
Li Jing had seen all the training data he had received in the assassin organization. His ability was rare!
Her father, Andrew, had once been the leader of a killer organization. He had oncemented on Jing Zhi,All of his potential was not something that humans could possess! If they met, they must not fight back and should just admit defeat.
The most important thing was that Jing Zhi was different from the calm and rational Jing Rui. He was violent and would kill without thinking about the consequences.
Li Jing could use her identity as Shuyins sister to restrict Jing Rui, and she could use her and Shuyins mother as a shield to avoid death, but none of these would work on Jing Zhi!
Li Jings back was instantly covered in ayer of cold sweat, and even her forehead was covered in a thinyer of sweat.
Jing Zhiughed as if he had discovered a new continent.Hey, Li Jing, youre almost naked, why are you still so hot? Its may now, so its quite cool! If you sweat so easily in the hot August, Wont You Be dehydrated into a mummy?
Fortunately, Li Jings mental fortitude was strong, or else she would have died from anger.
She tried her best to calm down and said in a calm tone,I have no enmity with you. Im afraid its not appropriate for you to barge into my house like this!
Jing Zhi rolled his eyes at her. Dont pretend, you still have the face to say that you have no grudges? My sister was bullied by you, and even her boyfriend was stolen by you. My brother is always too polite to you, so today I knocked my brother unconscious and killed people in his ce!
You want to kill me?
Li Jing snorted coldly,if I die, family Jing will suffer from the Li familys revenge. Besides, Im Shuyins older sister. If you kill me, how are you going to exin it to your sister-inw? My mom will also hate her daughter, Shuyin, for life!
Jing Zhi shrugged his shoulders and said,Whatever. Im not the one living with little Shenyu. I have my own wife!
As he spoke, he approached Li Jing at a terrifying speed and kicked her hard.
Li Jing screamed as she was sent flying. She fell to the floor and almost broke her breath.
Jing Zhis face turned cold,you dare to threaten me? Do you really think I dont dare to kill you? You even dared to use Jing Xi, do you think Im dead?
Li Jing spat out a mouthful of blood and sat up from the ground, enduring the pain. She leaned against the wall and gritted her teeth.Lou Ziling is the one who used her. What does it have to do with me? If you have the ability, go and kill Lou Ziling. Bullying a woman like me is an insult to the name of mo Mei!
Jing Zhi sneered,dont worry. After Im done with you, Ill deal with that Lou guy. In addition, a ruthless person like you really cant be considered a woman!
A few minutester, Jing Zhi left Li Jings ce. He had added a few more wounds to Li Jings body, so she probably wouldnt be able to cause any more trouble for a while.
In the evening, he sneaked into Lou Zilings small vi to help his sister deal with the heartless man.
Lou Ziling had juste out of the bathroom and immediately felt a strange atmosphere.
This had nothing to do with her strength. It was just Lou Zilings instinctive perception of danger and unfamiliar auras.
Whos there?e out!
Lou Ziling quickly took out a gun from the hiddenpartment under the table and looked around vigntly.
Jing Zhi slowly walked out from the shadows in the corner, his face full of surprise.You have such sharp senses. Have you been an assassin before?
Also?
Lou Ziling immediately realized that the Man in ck used to be an assassin!
Did Li Zhi send you?
He felt that no one but Li Jing would hire a killer to deal with him.
No, I was sent by Jing Xi!! Jing Zhi raised his eyebrows!
Lou Ziling tightened her grip on her gun.Impossible!
Why is it impossible? Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My surname is Jing, and Im Jing Xis second brother. Im here to beat someone up for my sister!
You are Jing Zhi? Lou Ziling asked hesitantly.
No wonder Jing Zhi looked so familiar to him. He had met him before.
However, when they met, he was only fifteen years old, Jing Xi was eight years old, and Jing Zhi He was wearing a monks robe and had a shaved head. He would put his hands together and chant the name of Buddha when he saw people. He waspletely different from the murderous look he had now!

Trantor: 549690339
Jing Zhi didnt feel any different from before. Time didnt leave any traces on him. The only difference was that his temper had improved, and he rarely killed.
He had no choice. Who asked him to have a kind wife who could not stand seeing blood?
Jing Zhi nced at the gun in Lou Zilings hand and said, Youre quite vignt. I just dont know if youre urate with your shooting. Why dont you try shooting?
Lou Ziling slowly lowered her hand and put the gun back into the hiddenpartment.
I didnt recognize you at first, so I naturally had to be on guard.
Oh? Now that youve recognized me, you dont need to be on guard anymore?
Jing Zhi approached Lou Ziling slowly, his eyes sharp.Xixi was bullied, so Im here to teach you a lesson for her! Im cruel and merciless, and Ill do anything I can. Its easier for you to keep your life if youre vignt!
Lou Zilings handsome face was calm.She wouldnt have let youe. You came on your own, right?
He knew Jing Xi well. With her straightforward personality, she would not want to be taken advantage of. If she wanted to take revenge on him, she would not need anyone else to do it. She would pounce on him and punch and kick him. When she was tired, she would even bite him with her teeth.
Jing Zhi was taken aback and asked,how do you know that Xixi didnt ask me toe? Is she that close to you?
He snorted and threatened Lou Ziling,Lou, Im warning you. My sister is the baby of our family. She has never been bullied since she was young. Now that her reputation is ruined by you and Li, I am very angry! Her big brother was also very angry! If you bully my sister again, I can beat you up so badly that even your mother wont be able to recognize you!
No, I wont bully her. Shes the one whos bullying me.
A faint smile suddenly appeared on Lou Zilings face. When he thought of Jing Xis unwillingness to be taken advantage of, he found it cute and all his depression disappeared.
If I bully her and hurt her, you cane to me at any time. You can kill her or cut her up.
Youre pretty good at bragging! My sister is so young, and she hasnt even been in a rtionship once. You have a bunch of ex-girlfriends. Youre more cunning than anyone else, and youve fooled Xixi! Youre not allowed to get close to her in the future. Get lost, do you hear me?
Jing Zhis cool voice had barely faded when a surprised voice came from behind him.Second brother? What are you doing here?
Jing Zhis expression changed immediately. He turned around and said with a smile,Xixi, what are you doing here? what a coincidence! I havent seen you for a long time, youre getting more and more beautiful!
Second brother, did you lose your memory? Jing Xi asked, confused. Didnt you freeload a meal at my housest week?
Jing Zhi touched the tip of his nose and suddenly remembered something.Oh, right, yuluo is still waiting for me at home for dinner. Itste, I have to go home!
He was about to leave when Jing Xi stopped him.Stop pretending. My second sister-inw was invited to attend a fashion design ceremony in Europe. Shes not at home at the moment! Tell me, what are you doing at Lou Ziling s? Dont tell me youre thinking of killing him?
Jing Zhi red at him.Nonsense! Do I look like someone who doesnt care about human lives? he asked. I killed Lou Ziling and no one gave me money. Im not doing this for nothing and youre ming me! At most, I just Wanted to beat him up
Why did you hit him? Jing Xi red at him.He didnt do anything to you! Youre not allowed to bully him just because youre strong!
Xixi, why are you so biased towards Lou Ziling? He didnt mess with me, but he bullied you. The newspaper said that hes two-timing, seducing that Vixen from the Li family, and even trying to trick you into his hands!
My silly sister, Jing Zhi said earnestly,you were so smart when you were young. How could you be tricked by a liar like this? Be good ande home with second brother. Our brother has plenty of handsome guys, and you can choose any movie star or rich young master you want. If anyone dares to disagree, well immediately ban them!
Lou Ziling, who was standing not far away, heard this and her face turned ugly. Was he trying to build a harem for Jing Xi?
One Ji moxuan and one Luo Feiyang were not enough, and he even wanted to pair Jing Xi with a few other celebrities?
Jing Xi looked up and saw Lou Zilings pale face. She turned to Jing Zhi and said with a smile,Really? I like the male lead of the lovers in the blue ocean, song Xin! Hes super handsome and has special abilities. Introduce him to me!
Lou Zilings face turned from green to ck. She was so gloomy that it was about to rain.Xixi, stop it!
Jing Zhiughed out loud, pleased with himself. Thats right. Lets go home and tell our brother. You will definitely be able to see song Xin tomorrow! That young man is much more handsome than some people, and there are no scandals about him!
He was about to pull Jing Xi away when Lou Ziling quickly stepped forward and pulled her back. He lowered his head and said to Jing Xi,Youre not allowed to go!
His tone was domineering and unquestionable, and he used a lot of strength, as if he was afraid that Jing Xi would really leave.
Jing Xis eyes were full of smiles. She pouted yfully and turned to Jing Zhi.Second brother, you can go back first. I still have something to tell Lou Ziling!
Jing Zhi stared coldly at Lou Zilings hand that was holding Jing Xis arm. His eyes were as sharp as knives, as if he wanted to cut off Lou Zilings hand.
He felt that he had finally made his sister grow up, but she was going to be taken away by a Wolf at the age of seventeen. As an elder brother, his heart was bleeding!
So the little princess that he and Jing Rui had been protecting for so many years was raised by Lou Ziling?
However, Lou Ziling didnt know how to cherish it. Today, he even made Jing Xi bear the name of a mistress!
Jing Zhis eyes grew colder and colder, and the murderous aura around him grew stronger.
Jing Xi was shocked. She pped Lou Zilings hand away and ran to Jing Zhi. She grabbed his arm and pulled him out. Lets go, lets go. Second brother, why are you ring at me so fiercely? I think youre going to eat me! Hurry up and get out, your murderous look is making my hair stand on end. Im going to have a nightmare tonight!
Jing Xi finally got Jing Zhi to leave.
When she returned to the living room, she saw Lou Zilings gloomy face as if someone owed him five million Yuan.
Jing Xiughed in her heart, but she asked nonchntly,Youre feeling unwell? You dont look too good, do you want to go to the hospital?
Lou Ziling stared at Jing Xi and said in a cold tone,Come here!
Jing Xi twisted her fingers and slowly moved to his side. She looked up and asked,Why?
Lou Ziling wrapped her arms around her waist and pulled her into her arms.
Her body fell into his arms and hurt his wounds, but Lou Ziling seemed to not feel it. He held Jing Xi tighter and tighter.

Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling lowered her head and kissed Jing Xis smooth forehead, but she felt that kissing her forehead was not enough.
He lifted Jing Xis chin, and under her shy gaze, he bit her lips and sucked on them. He was overbearing.
Her lips were red and soft, like honey or petals. They were sweet and fragrant, making Lou Ziling want to sink into them.
If someone else touched and tasted her, Lou Ziling felt that she might go crazy and lose her mind in an instant!
He bit Jing Xi hard, and hearing her groan, he warned Jing Xi,You are not allowed to see that song Xin! I dont like it!
Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan chased after Jing Xi all day long, and it was already Lou Zilings limit to work with these two people who had ulterior motives!
Jing Xi was wrapped in Lou Zilings arms, and her whole body was almost hanging on him. Hearing his domineering words about not seeing other men, she raised her head slightly and said in a coquettish tone,Even so, you cant meet those women. I dont like them either
Yes, hes gone.
Lou Ziling agreed without even thinking. Who else could he see? He was not interested in meeting anyone. The one in his arms was already the best.
He knew that Jing Xi would be jealous, but Jing Xi had no idea that she was irreceable in his heart.
No one else could be like her, making him so willing topromise and give up everything!
Lou Zilings eyes were deep. He pecked Jing Xis full red lips, picked her up by the waist, and slowly walked upstairs.
Lou Zilings eyes were so intense that Jing Xi was shocked. She grabbed his clothes in a panic.Ziling, what What are you doing? he asked.
Lou Zilings footsteps paused. It was as if a stone had fallen into theke of his heart, causing waves to rise and fall. He was excited and agitated.
He carried Jing Xi into the bedroom, put her on the bed, and covered her with his body. He couldnt help but kiss her madly.
Xixi, call me that again
Jing Xi felt a little dizzy. What was wrong with Lou Ziling today? she was so crazy! Her heart was beating so fast!
She had just blurted out Lou Zilings name, but now she felt embarrassed and shy to say it again.
Jing Xi buried her face in Lou Zilings chest and was too embarrassed to speak again.
Lou Ziling had just taken a shower. He was wearing a loose bathrobe with no buttons, only a belt around his waist.
He tightened his arms and said in a low and restrained voice,Xixi, dont mess around. Youre starting a fire!
Jing Xi didnt know Lou Ziling would have such a big reaction. She just thought it was fun and bit him. How did he
She had already felt the changes in Lou Zilings body. Her face was as red as an Apple. She did not dare to move and was flustered.
Lou Ziling felt happy and tormented at the same time. The girl he loved was right beside him, lying under him. She was so delicious, but he couldnt eat her!
This girl would drive him crazy sooner orter!
Lou Ziling quickly got up from the bed and went into the bathroom to take a cold shower.
After a long while, he walked out of the bathroom, drenched.
Jing Xi was lying on his bed. When she saw hime in, her calm expression suddenly became helpless, and her fair face quickly turned red.
You, you, you Why arent you wearing any clothes!
Seeing her like this, Lou Zilings desire, which had just subsided, started toe back.
He looked at his own body and smiled.Why arent you wearing any clothes? arent you already wearing them?
Jing Xi was too embarrassed to raise her head.You only have a towel around you. Wheres your shirt?
Lou Zilings figure was too good. She was tall and well-proportioned, without a trace of fat on her body. Her muscles were smooth and her skin was fair. However, she gave people a sense of strength and security.
When Jing Xi saw his body, she always wanted to pounce on him and bite him.
Lou Ziling sat on the edge of the bed and hooked Jing Xis chin with her finger, forcing her to look up at her. She whispered,Why are you blushing? didnt you see a bunch of topless people in America?
Jing Xis eyes lit up, and her breathing was a little rapid.Those Those people are different
Lou Ziling chuckled. She couldnt help but pull Jing Xi into her arms again. Her fingers lingered around her waist and then slowly moved up. Whats the Difference? Im better looking than them?
Jing Xi grabbed his big hand in a panic and said shyly,Dont move!
Lou Ziling was a little disappointed that she didnt get to touch her little white rabbit. However, when she thought that she would be his in the future, she was filled with hope and happiness.
He lowered his head slightly and pointed at his chest. His tone was gentle and doting.Are you a puppy? you like to bite people so much. Look, this is where you bit me before, leaving behind a bite mark.
Huh? Jing Xi was a little surprised.Did I bite you before? Howe I dont remember! Impossible, I cant bear to bite so hard, its leaving a scar!
Lou Ziling chuckled. The little girl had bitten him and she actually forgot about it!
Originally, he wouldnt bite her so hard, but he was too heartless at that time andpletely angered her, so he became a little lion.
Jing Xi touched the shallow scar and suddenly looked up.Tell me, did you get bitten by another woman? youre afraid that Ill suspect you, so youre ming it on me first!
Lou Ziling touched her forehead helplessly.There should be a limit to jealousy, right? Who was the one ming who?
He touched Jing Xis little nose and said in a low and serious voice,You might not know this, but other than you, no one else dares to bite me. And other than you, I wont let anyone have the chance to bite me.
Warmth and sweetness entered her heart. Jing Xi smiled and her eyes curved.Hmph, thats not for sure. Li Jing made you faint and bit you, you dont even know!
Lou Ziling felt helpless again. She was still jealous.
It was an identst time. There wont be such an ident in the future. Besides, she didnt bite me. If you dont believe me, you can see for yourself.
Lou Ziling got out of bed and turned on the light in the bedroom. The room suddenly became bright, but Jing Xi could see the bruises on his body at a nce.
Lou Ziling! She eximed.You have so many injuries on your body. Who allowed you to take a bath?! Didnt I tell you not to let water touch your wound?
You didnt say Lou Ziling replied innocently.
This ismon sense! Common sense, okay? Didnt I say that you dont know that your wound cante into contact with water?
Jing Xi angrily pulled Lou Ziling in front of her and carefully examined the wounds on his body. She said in a distressed tone,Look, its soaked in water. Its not easy to recover!
Lou Zilings heart softened when he saw Jing Xis concern for him. He stroked Jing Xis long hair and said softly,Im fine, dont worry.

In fact, Jing Xi was ming herself. She was the one who had caused Lou Zilings injury. She could only me herself for being so angry when she saw the photo of Li Jing and Lou Ziling.
Do you have medicine at home? Ill reapply the medicine for you. Otherwise, the wound will get inmed after being soaked in water.
Yes, Lou Ziling nodded.
He brought the first aid kit, and Jing Xi dipped a cotton swab in the ointment and carefully applied it on him.
She looked serious and very careful as if she was afraid of hurting him. Lou Zilings heart skipped a beat. He lowered his head and kissed her gently.
On a tree outside the vi, Jing Zhi was watching the scene in the vi, and he was so jealous that he was on fire.
He had never expected that Jing Xi would be so nice to a man one day!
Jing Zhi was not angry at Jing Xi for being nice to others. He was angry at Lou Ziling for not protecting Jing Xi.
Jing Zhi couldnt bear to see this anymore. He jumped off the tree and disappeared into the night.
It didnt matter. As long as Jing Xi liked it, she could go after it. Anyway, he and Jing Rui were there. If Lou Ziling dared to have second thoughts, the two brothers could tear her apart in minutes!
It was a pity that he didnt manage to teach Lou Ziling a lesson today. Jing Zhi had wanted to teach him a lesson.
Jing Xi applied some medicine to Lou Zilings wounds and put on various band-aids.
Lou Ziling frowned,theres no need to post this, right? Theyll be fine in two days. Its not easy to heal with band-aids.
Jing Xi nced at him and said,if I say Im going to do it, then Im going to do it! It wont be easy to get infected, and it can also reduce the inmmation of the wound!
Good, good, good, Ill stick!
Lou Ziling immediately chose to submit to her girlfriend. After all, it was very warm to have her care and concern.
Even if there were no wounds on his body, Lou Ziling would let Jing Xi put a band-aid on him.
Jing Xi was finally satisfied. Looking at the band-aid on Lou Zilings body, she suddenly felt a little funny. She wanted to hold it in, but after a while, she burst outughing.
Lou Ziling did not mind beingughed at by her. He put on a loose T-shirt to cover the band-aids, put his arms around Jing Xi, andy down on the bed. He talked to her softly.
Jing Xiy in his arms, feeling so sweet that it was almost unreal.
She liked Lou Zilings voice and his unique aura.
When he spoke to her in a low voice, he liked to stroke her hair and kiss her forehead and cheeks from time to time. As long as she moved slightly further away from him, he would pull her back and ask,Where are you going?
The feeling of being doted on by him was getting clearer and clearer.
She identally found out that Lou Ziling remembered every little thing that they had spent together in the past. She knew her likes and dislikes clearly and was tolerant of all her small tempers.
Jing Xi had always thought that she was doing this on her own, but she slowly realized that it was not the case.
Lou Ziling was just too reserved and good at hiding herself.
It waste at night and Jing Xis cell phone kept ringing. Shangguan ning was urging her to go home.
Lou Ziling, Ill stay with you. I can change your dressing tomorrow morning! Jing Xi refused to leave.
Lou Zilings eyes showed a smile. She said softly, Im afraid that wont do. Its safest for you to sleep at home. If you sleep beside me, I might want to eat you up at any time
Jing Xi stomped her feet and walked away, blushing.
Lou Ziling stood at the door and watched the driver take Jing Xi away. She stood outside for a long time before she returned to her bedroom.
Before Jing Xi came, Lou Ziling had been Living a Good Life alone. She never felt that the house was too big. But now that she was here and gone, and her warmth was still on the bed, Lou Ziling suddenly felt that her heart was empty. She felt that the house was too big.
It turned out that someone as reclusive as him would also feel lonely at times.
That night, Lou Zilings dream was filled with Jing Xi.
The next morning, Lou Ziling opened her eyes and saw the girl in her dream. She was like a pure white Orchid, fresh and beautiful.
Lou Ziling stood up and put his arms around Jing Xis waist. He put his chin on Jing Xis neck and said in a low voice,Its so good to see you the moment I open my eyes.
Jing Xi also hugged Lou Ziling and said in a soft voice,I was worried that youd been taken away again, so I came without breakfast.
Its not that easy to be taken away. Dont think too much.
Lou Ziling looked down at Jing Xis youthful and fair face, kissed her on the forehead, and took her hand to the living room downstairs.What do you want to eat? Ill get the maid to make it for you.
Huh? Jing Xi was a little surprised.Did you find a maid?
Lou Ziling nodded.I found one. Hes very good at cooking.
When did you find it?
Lou Ziling was silent for a moment before she said softly,After you ate instant noodles at my ce thest time, youve been eating too much. I was afraid that you woulde again and there wouldnt be any nutritious food, so I found a maid who could cook.
Jing Xi looked at him in a daze. It turned out that he cared so much about her!
Lou Ziling was a loner. He didnt like people entering his living space. He didnt even like servants. Before this, he only had an hourly cleaner.
Are you dumb?
Lou Ziling chuckled. He patted Jing Xis head and said,Im going to wash up. Well have breakfast togetherter.
He turned around and went to the bathroom. The servant brought in some vegetables and fruits into the living room.
The servant was not surprised to see Jing Xi, and greeted her warmly.
Obviously, Lou Ziling had warned him about this.
Jing Xis heart was filled with happiness. He had considered everything.
The breakfast was scrumptious and delicious. Perhaps because Lou Ziling was with her, Jing Xi ate more than usual.
On the other hand, Lou Ziling didnt eat much. He was taking care of Jing Xis food the whole time.
If she took a look at it, he would put it in her bowl. If she didnt like it, he would ask the servants to take it away and serve a new one.
After dinner, Lou Ziling drove Jing Xi to work. Jing Xi touched her round belly and mumbled,If I keep eating like this, Im going to be fat!
Lou Ziling held her hand and said,Youre only 17, and youre still growing. Its good to eat more. Youre too skinny, you can put on more weight.
Lou Ziling felt sad when he thought of Jing Xis age.
She was so young, and he always felt like he wasmitting a crime.
Tan Ruyi was also seventeen years old, but she was still a child in high school.
If it was any other 17-year-old girl, Lou Ziling would not even have any thoughts about her. But this was Jing Xi, and he could not suppress his inner feelings.
Perhaps Jing Xi was not like a seventeen-year-old girl at times, especially when she was angry. She could give people a strong sense of oppression.
When she was in trouble, she was always calm and rational. She would never show mercy to those who bullied her.
Most importantly, at the age of seventeen, her body was already well developed.
Lou Zilings eyes unconsciously fell on her tall and straight peaks, and her eyes gradually darkened.
Chapter 1529
Chapter 1529: Quarreling
Trantor: 549690339
Girls were usually very sensitive to such gazes, and Jing Xi was no exception.
Her face was a little hot. She reached out her hand to straighten Lou Zilings face and said,You drive properly!
I cant drive properly if you sit next to me.
Lou Zilings voice was calm, but her eyes were burning. She even slowed down the car.
Jing Xi felt that she almost didnt know Lou Ziling anymore. He could say anything now,pletely subverting his previous cold and quiet image.
Then I wont take your car next time?
That wont do, you have to take my car. Im not at ease if you take another mans car! My self-control is already very strong, but I still want to hug you. If it were someone else with low self-control, it would be too unsafe!
Jing Xi suddenlyughed. She was not that attractive. He only had a weak will because he liked her.
Sheughed all the way to Luo Feiyangspany. Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan immediately red at Lou Ziling when they saw that Jing Xi had been sent here by Lou Ziling.
Hey, hey, hey, whats with your expressions? are you going to eat me?
Jing Xi didnt like the way Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan looked at Lou Ziling. It was too piercing!
Xixi, why did he send you here? Dont you know that his girlfriend is Li Jing? Hes not a good person, dont be fooled by him!
Luo Feiyangs face was full of anger. He was worried that what was reported in the newspaper yesterday was true!
Didnt Jing Xi break off her rtionship with Lou Ziling? Every time Lou Ziling came here, Jing Xi would never talk to him. Why did shee to work in his car today?
Ji moxuan also frowned, his expression even uglier than Luo Feiyang s.Xixi, hes not good enough for you!
Nonsense! Jing Xi was furious.Im Lou Zilings girlfriend! Hes so powerful, stronger than me in all aspects, how is he not worthy of me? Li Jings story is aplete rumor. She was never Lou Zilings girlfriend!
Seeing that Jing Xi was angry, Lou Ziling could not help but hold her hand gently and said,Xixi, its fine. Ji moxuan is right. I already knew this fact. Im not afraid of people talking about it.
What truth? Jing Xi turned around.Youre excellent in every aspect. Youre not unworthy of anyone!
When Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan saw Jing Xis hand being held by Lou Ziling, their anger rose.
They had been watching over Jing Xi and thought that Lou Ziling would never have a chance. But they had no idea when they had gotten together!
Both of them felt as if they had been struck by lightning. They realized btedly that they seemed to have invited a Wolf into the house!
Lou Ziling, if I remember correctly, you said that you would never marry Xixi! Whats going on now?
Luo Feiyang was straightforward and directly shouted out Lou Zilings words.
Although he was crazy, he would never lie and frame someone. Jing Xi looked at Lou Ziling with wide eyes.You even said such words to them?
Yes, I did, Lou Ziling replied indifferently.
Jing Xis eyes quickly turned red. She shook off Lou Zilings hand.When did you say that? Why?
Lou Ziling couldnt bear to see Jing Xi like this. He said softly,I didnt realize how important you were when I said that, and you were too young. I thought it was impossible between us. I only wanted to develop thepany at that time and I was afraid that if I got involved with you, I would use you and family Jing, so I would rather stay away from you.
What kind of reason was that?
Wasnt the Lou family a subsidiary family of the Jing family at that time?
Werent they always involved?
In other words, Lou Ziling wanted to leave family Jing, and he had wanted to leave family Jing for a long time.
No wonder he wanted to pretend to be a couple with Li Jing. With the support of the Li family, the Jing family would definitely give up on the Lou family in anger!
As long as they could get through this period, the Lou family would be able to leave the Jing family, then the Li family, and be independent.
Jing Xi forced her tears back. Her heart ached so much that it felt numb.
Lou Ziling, have you always regarded family Jing as a burden to family Lou? Is family Jing hindering family Lous future?
Jing Xis voice was bitter, and her tone was sharp.You bastard!
Lou Zilings voice turned cold.I didn t! I just dont want to be a subordinate of a strong person! If Im always a vassal, Ill never dare to say that I like you! Ive already prepared myself to die alone, but as soon as you appear, all my determination will be in vain!
Jing Xis face turned pale, and her mind was in a mess.
She ran out of Luo Feiyangspany in pain, wanting to escape.
Lou Ziling looked at Luo Feiyang coldly and quickly chased after him.
Only Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan were left in the office. Luo Feiyang sat down on the sofa and asked in a low voice,Mo Xuan, did I say something I shouldnt have?
Ji moxuan slowly sat down beside him, his gaze a little dazed,I dont think so. Lou Ziling was the one who said that. But I think Xixi really likes Lou Ziling. I still dont understand why I lost.
Luo Feiyang looked at his messy office and scratched his head.Is it because were not as good at running apany as Lou Ziling? But that shouldnt be the case. Xixi isnt the kind of person who only cares about money. If she really likes money, she should choose one of us. The Lou family is the poorest!
On the road outside the office building, Lou Ziling caught up with Jing Xi. Regardless of her struggle, he carried her and stuffed her into his car.
Xixi, dont mess around. There are too many cars here. Its too dangerous!
Youre in more danger! Youre the Worst person Ive ever seen!
Jing Xi struggled to get out of the car, but Lou Ziling was much stronger than her. She held her in her arms and refused to let her go.
I admit that I was wrong in the past, but I never wanted to harm you! Was it wrong for me to want to leave family Jing? I just want to rely on my own strength to strengthen my family. I dont want others to mention my name and say that I developed by relying on your family.
Isnt it? Isnt it well known that the Lou family is a part of the Jing family?
Seeing Jing Xis eyes turn red again, Lou Ziling sighed softly.Silly girl, whats there to be angry about? youre so important in my heart, so important that youre more important than me. Im not greedy for your familys money and power. Isnt that good?
Not good! Not only did you give up the power of family Jing, but you also gave me up!
Jing Xis tears finally fell. She suddenly felt very insecure. Lou Ziling seemed to disappear from her life at any time.
Lou Ziling gently wiped her tears away. Her heart was throbbing in pain.Believe me, Xixi, I wont do it again. I wont make the same mistake again.
Chapter 1530
Chapter 1530: She actually dared to think about another man
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi was not the kind of person who liked to be suspicious. She dared to love and hate. She had always been a free and easy person. However, Lou Ziling was her nemesis.
She had hit a wall with Lou Ziling again and again. Her family background, looks, and intelligence, which she was proud of, were not attractive to him at all.
Lou Zilings attitude towards her had suddenly changed. She was no longer cold, but full of warmth. Jing Xi felt like she was dreaming.
He had changed too quickly and without warning. Jing Xi was a little scared.
She was afraid that Lou Ziling would suddenly say,I was just acting before, why did you take it for real?
Jing Xi sat on Lou Ziling and gave him a hard punch.Let me go, I dont want you anymore!
Lou Ziling didnt Dodge and took the punch. He wrapped his arms around Jing Xis waist and didnt let her get out of the car. Im not letting you go. If I let you go, youll go and find Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan. I wont give you this chance!
He knew Jing Xi well. If he let go of her, she would really be able to leave him. She was definitely the kind of person who could let go of things.
It didnt make sense for her to pester him for so long, integrate into his life, and then walk away so coolly, letting him experience warmth and then fall into loneliness and coldness!
Im going to take you abroad! Xixi, were leaving tonight!
Im not going! You want to sell me? Ha, lets see who dares to buy it!
The little lion was angry again. She kept thinking of him in a bad way. Lou Ziling pressed her into her arms and whispered,Im that bad? What good would it do me to sell you? If you were to go missing, I would be the first suspect of family Jing. Besides, if anything happens to you while youre by my side, my dad will beat me to death. Do you believe me?
Jing Xi didnt believe it. She didnt know Lou Mingyang at all. How could Lou Mingyang kill his own son for her?
Why didnt she realize that Lou Ziling could lie and exaggerate before?
Jing Xis distrust was written all over her face. Lou Ziling said helplessly,Youll understand when you marry into my family. Your status is far higher than mine. My father would rather let me get hurt than let you get hurt.
Jing Xi was both angry and amused. Her hands were caught by Lou Ziling, so she couldnt hit him. She could only lie on his shoulder and bite him.
Dont think too much, who wants to marry you! Im only 17, and Im still a minor. Youre molesting a young girl! Its illegal!
Thats why Im taking you abroad. We cant register for marriage under the age of 20 in A city, but as far as I know, in many countries around the world, people can get married at the age of 15. Youre more than two years old, so marriage is definitely not a problem.
Jing Xi looked at Lou Ziling in shock. Did he really want to marry her?
Should I Register our marriage first? If Lou Ziling was married, wouldnt she be her woman? By then, if he dared to have an ambiguous rtionship with another woman, she would be able to deal with him righteously!
But if she were to get married at the age of seventeen, would she be scolded by Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning?
Jing Yichen was so powerful that he could find someone to erase her marriage record.
No, no. Her mother said that she had to get married openly. If she married a man secretly, the other party would easily think that she had no backbone and would look down on the other party in the future.
Marriage was a sweet and happy thing. How could she make it so shameful?
Im not going! Dont try to trick me. Ill definitely tell my parents about our marriage. You want me to marry you when youre only seventeen? Lou Ziling, youre a beast in human skin! Do you want to destroy the flowers of our country?
Lou Ziling couldnt help butugh.
The flower of the country? A man-eating flower?
Who would dare to ravage her with thorns all over her body!
What are youughing at, Im not a flower? I dont look good? I used to be the campus Belle of our school!
This was not an exaggeration. When she was studying in the United States, her suitors could line up from the Pacific Ocean to the Arctic Ocean. Even students from other schools would send her flowers and love letters.
Lou Ziling chuckled,youre beautiful. Ive never denied that. But I wont admit that Im a beast. If I were, I wouldnt have let you leavest night.
Jing Xis anger gradually subsided. She tilted her head and looked at Lou Ziling, her eyes full of doubt.You even know how to praise people?
Is there anything I cant do?
No, Lou Ziling answered her own question. All the things I cant do, I just dont want to do it. As long as I want to, I can do everything. Otherwise, why would you like me?
Who said I like you?
You yourself.
I I just thought that you were handsome! Ive liked a lot of people in the past, and I like every single handsome one of them. Youre just one of them! I used to want to marry brother mu Sen. He is much better than you and loves me a lot!
Jing Xi pouted and told him what had happened in the past.
Lou Zilings face turned ck with anger.
Mu Sen? The doctor from family MUs Hospital? Which part of him do you like? In what way is he better than me? If I remember correctly, hes not your cousin? I can even marry close rtives?
Lou Ziling asked a few questions in a row. Her voice was cold and her anger could not be suppressed.
He didnt know that Jing Xi liked mu Sen!
He had never thought about it in this way. Firstly, there was a big age difference between the two of them. Secondly, they were rtives. He would never have thought that there was anotheryer to it.
Whats more, Lou Ziling knew that mu Sen had always liked his sister Lou ruofei.
Lou Ziling thought she was special when Jing Xi was chasing her. She didnt expect Jing Xi to like someone else.
His heart was so sour that he could make vinegar!
Lou Ziling pressed Jing Xi under him and said in a hoarse voice,Youre not allowed to like anyone, not even your cousin!
He kissed Jing Xi a little roughly, biting her lips and chin. His hand also went under her clothes, but he couldnt get in, so he pulled hard and tore Jing Xis clothes apart.
Lou Ziling! Are you crazy?! Jing Xi shouted. Dont touch me! Youve torn my clothes!
Lou Ziling bit her delicate earlobe and said in a low voice,I can buy you any kind of clothes you want, but you only belong to me! I cant bear to touch you. Ive spoiled you, yet you still dare to think about other men!
Lou Zilings warm and ticklish breath filled her ears. Jing Xi blushed and her body went soft.
It didnt hurt when he bit her ear, but it was so numb that Jing Xi didnt know what to do.
She had never felt this way before!
Jing Xi blushed and begged for mercy.Okay, okay, okay. I was wrong. I wont think about anyone else again! Get up, dont bite my ear, its so ufortable
Lou Ziling only realized how sensitive her ears were when she heard her delicate voice.
Chapter 1531
Chapter 1531: A man with a bad reputation
Trantor: 549690339
Even when he kissed Jing Xis lips before, she didnt have such a big reaction.
Lou Ziling seemed to have discovered a new world. She sucked and nibbled on Jing Xis soft earlobe.
His hand slowly caressed her smooth back. He wanted to reach for her chest, but it was blocked by Jing Xis tightly held arms.
Lou Ziling couldnt bear to force her. Seeing Jing Xis resistance, he didnt go any further. He just slowly stroked her back inch by inch.
She was really beautiful. Her skin was delicate and smooth. Lou Ziling couldnt bear to let go.
At that moment, Jing Xi felt as if her whole body was on fire!
Lou Zilings hand seemed to be electrified. Wherever he touched, it would cause a shiver. Jing Xis breathing became unstable, and her heart beat faster.
Lou Ziling, you broke the rules You are bullying me on purpose
Her voice was unexpectedly seductive. Jing Xi blushed, but Lou Ziling took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
Being with Jing Xi was a test of his willpower.
Her tender and delicious appearance had been tempting him tomit a crime.
After a long while, Lou Ziling sat up, took off her suit, and wrapped Jing Xi in it. Your clothes are torn, wear mine first.
Jing Xi red at him angrily. He was speaking so nonchntly as if he had not done it at all!
She was wearing a suit that carried Lou Zilings body temperature. She covered the long hole in her skirt that he had torn open. She curled up in a corner and refused to talk to him.
When he had torn her clothes, he had been crazy and scary. He was apletely different person from the calm and rational him now!
How many faces did this person have? Did he really have a split personality?
Jing Xis eyes were full of doubt. Lou Ziling couldnt help but approach her and tap her forehead with her finger.What are you thinking about again? Dont doubt me in your heart. If you have any questions, ask me, and I will tell you the truth.
Do you really not have a split personality? People say that the more talented a person is, the more likely they are to have split personalities. Youre quite a genius.
Lou Ziling held his breath. If he had known, he would not have let Jing Xi ask!
What kind of ridiculous questions were these!
Which part of him looked like he had a split personality? He just had better self-control!
He reached out and ruffled Jing Xis hair.Ill take you to buy some clothes.
Lou Ziling opened the back door of the car, got into the drivers seat, and drove Jing Xi to the mall.
It was the first time that Lou Ziling had apanied her to buy clothes. Jing Xi was both angry and happy.
She was happy that he was going to buy her new clothes.
She was angry because he was the one who had torn her clothes and she didnt know how to exin it to Shangguan ning when she got home.
You said it was scratched?
Such a big cut. Even she herself didnt believe it, let alone her mother.
After knowing that she was with Lou Ziling, Shangguan ning had reminded her a hundred times every day not to be too active and not to do anything too intimate.
She was still a child in Shangguan nings eyes.
Many people in the mall were looking at Lou Ziling and Jing Xi. Many recognized Lou Ziling, but none recognized Jing Xi. Jing Yichen had always protected her privacy and never allowed any photos or personal information of his underage daughter to be exposed.
However, Jing Xi was wearing Lou Zilings suit and standing next to the tall and handsome Lou Ziling. She was very eye-catching.
Many people were looking at Jing Xi, wondering if Lou Ziling had a new girlfriend.
Lou Ziling was disgusted by the gazes of these people. If he was the only one being watched, he would not care. He was not afraid of being watched.
But he didnt like the unfriendly looks they were giving Jing Xi.
He turned to look at Jing Xi and wanted to hold her hand, but he found that Jing Xi didnt care about other peoples eyes at all. She ran into a store excitedly, asked for two dresses, and went to the fitting room to try on clothes!
Lou Zilingughed. This girls mental strength was really strong. The waiters in that shop were whispering about her, but she walked in directly. The waiters were at a loss.
Lou Ziling also entered the shop. He nced at the waiters coldly, and his sharp eyes forced them to lower their heads. He then looked away and focused on picking out clothes for Jing Xi.
He had never bought clothes for a girl before. Even his own clothes had been bought by his assistant and sent to the vi. Now that he was starting to get started, he felt a little lost.
He felt that Jing Xi looked good in anything. Lively, solemn, fresh, and gorgeous. She could suppress her.
The clothes in this store were more mature and more suitable for office workers. Jing Xi would probably look a few years more mature in them.
Lou Ziling picked a light gray suit and a white mermaid-tail dress. She said to the waiter,Wrap up these two sets!
The waitress was surprised that he could judge Jing Xis size so urately. They had been in this line of work for many years, and they had practiced to be able to roughly judge someones size with just one look. Ordinary people had to try on clothes.
After the clothes were wrapped, Jing Xi came out of the fitting room in a new set of clothes.
She chose a ck and white dress with a houndstooth. Since she was already working in thepany, the clothes she bought recently were more mature, so that people wouldnt say that she was still a child and that she was going to work for fun.
She really liked it when she looked like a white-cor worker in the city. Yingluo had always disliked people calling her small.
He looked like he was in his twenties in this outfit.
She turned around and showed Lou Ziling her clothes.How is it?
She was tall and slender, her legs long and straight, her skin white and glowing, her long ck hair casually draped over her shoulders, and she was as beautiful as an ink painting in a simple and elegant ck and white dress.
Lou Ziling walked to her side and tucked her hair behind her ears. She said softly,Its very nice. This dress is very ordinary, but it doesnt look ordinary on you.
Although his voice was very soft, the waiters around them all heard him.
They looked at each other and saw the shock in each others eyes.
Rumors about Lou Ziling, the business genius, were everywhere. His appearance was too outstanding, so it was inevitable that women would have a strong desire to gossip about him.
He had always had a bad reputation when it came to rtionships, because it was rumored that he didnt care about his girlfriend at all. After being in many rtionships, he was never willing to spend time with his girlfriend and was only focused on his career.
Many people said that he actually liked men and that dating a woman was just a cover-up. Otherwise, why would he be so cold to every girlfriend? He was so cold that he didnt even hug her!
So far, the most intimate photo he had taken with a woman was Li Zhi holding his arm once.
Chapter 1532
Chapter 1532: Im not your weakness
Trantor: 549690339
What was the identity of the girl who came with Lou Ziling today? how could Lou Ziling take care of her so carefully?
The waiters all looked at Jing Xi. Was she beautiful? She was indeed very beautiful, but that should not be the reason for Lou Zilings change.
Li Jing was already beautiful enough, and she was the kind of beauty that could kill both men and women. She was noble and beautiful, and her figure and appearance were impable. Countless men in A city went crazy for her.
However, Lou Ziling left her and went shopping with another girl?
Li Jing was not only beautiful, but she also had wisdom and wealth. No one couldpare to her.
Lou Ziling paid the money and left with Jing Xi. The waiters in the shop burst into a discussion. Unfortunately, they didnt dare to take photos of Jing Xi under Lou Zilings cold gaze. Otherwise, they would take photos of Jing Xi and upload them online for theizens to recognize.
It had been a long time since Jing Xi had shopped. She was a little excited to have Lou Ziling apany her.
Also, Lou Ziling bought her clothes. This was his first gift to her and she was very happy.
Therefore, even though there were people discussing and giving pointers, her interest did not diminish.
Lou Ziling, I didnt know that you are a famous person in A city! If Prince Charming song Xin were to walk outside, wouldnt that be the number of heads turned around?
Lou Ziling didnt know who song Xin was, but after Jing Xi mentioned himst time, he went online to check.
Song Xin was originally a singer, butter changed to an actor. After a few idol dramas, he became more and more famous.
Lou Ziling didnt listen to songs or watch idol dramas, so he didnt know who song Xin was. However, he felt that song Xins poprity was inexplicable just by looking at the photo.
He didnt understand what Jing Xi liked about song Xin. He was as delicate as a girl and his hair was dyed in all sorts of colors. Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang were also much better than song Xin. At least these two were raised by big families and would not make themselves look out of ce.
Im not the same as song Xin.
Lou Ziling only said one sentence, but Jing Xi could hear his displeasure. She toot.Song Xin is a warm-hearted man, you are an iceberg. Of course, they are not the same thing
Have you met song Xin? Lou Zilings eyes were dangerous.
Not really, hes busy with filming! When hes free, Ill meet him and ask for an autograph and a photo!
Lou Ziling held the clothes she had bought for Jing Xi in one hand and held her hand with the other.Youre trying to anger me? Why didnt I hear you say that you like celebrities before?
In the past, I only liked you. I gave up an entire forest for a green leaf. Aiya, Im so stupid!
Lou Ziling didnt know whether she should be happy or angry.
He didnt want to take Jing Xi shopping anymore, so he pulled her out.Its better if youre stupid. I cant handle you if youre too smart!
Why are you leaving? I still want to walk around!
Not today. Too many people will recognize me. It wont do you any good. Lets go home first. If you like shopping, Ill take you abroad next time. No one will recognize me there.
You? Jing Xi looked at him suspiciously.So what? Are you afraid that others will find out that you have a new girlfriend? Or are you afraid that others will find out that Im your girlfriend? Im going to tell the world that youre my boyfriend!
Lou Ziling looked at her helplessly. This girl never seemed to realize how special her identity as the little princess of family Jing was.
However, the fact that she was going to announce to the world that he was her boyfriend made him feel happy both physically and mentally.
Lou Ziling protected her head and let her into the car. He sat beside her and patiently exined to her why he didnt want her to be exposed.
Im not afraid of others knowing that youre my girlfriend. Im just afraid that youll be attacked. Many people in A city know of your existence, but no one can recognize you. Why?
Its because your parents have protected your privacy very well. Not even a single photo was leaked. I dont want you to expose your identity because of me. That will bring you danger.
Also, once others find out that Im so close to you, Ill be rich, you fool!
Lou Ziling held Jing Xis hand and stroked the back of her hand with his thumb. His voice was calm and low, with infinite patience and gentleness.
Lou Ziling had never thought that he would be so meticulous with a girl.
He was a person who was not even meticulous with himself.
Isnt it good that youre rich? Youre mine, so if youre rich, isnt that the same as me being rich?
Do you think theyll let me get rich for nothing? Those people didnt see my value, but your value.
Lou Ziling sighed in his heart. Inparison, Jing Xis value was a hundred times, a thousand times more than his. He had been working hard, but he was still not strong enough.
Li Jing alone could easily make him lose.
In the past, he could fight fearlessly in the business world and was not afraid of any means. But now, he had a weakness.
However, Jing Xi seemed to have seen through Lou Zilings thoughts. She said softly,Lou Ziling, Im not your weak spot. You can do whatever you want. Im not with you to tie you down. I like to see your confidence. I like to see you be a dazzling star.
She was wearing new clothes. The ck and white colors were simple and elegant, which made Jing Xi look mature.
At this moment, she was no longer childish. She was as calm as an adult woman and no longer had the willfulness and mischief of the past.
Send me to Luo Feiyangspany. You can work there too!
Jing Xi hugged Lou Ziling. She was a little down, but she didnt show it on her face.
Half an hourter, Jing Xi entered Luo Feiyangs office. Both Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan stood up immediately. They wanted to talk to her but didnt know what to say.
What are you looking at? Jing Xi said nonchntly.Get to work! I wont leave until thispany is fully developed! Otherwise, Ill lose face!
She and Ji moxuan had been helping Luo Feiyang without any regard for the reward. It was really just to fight for their pride, not for the money.
Especially Ji moxuan, he did not believe that he would lose to Lou Ziling!
If he couldnt even manage such a smallpany, he would go bankrupt when he took over family Jis enterprise!
In fact, Ji Bo had been paying attention to the progress and observing his ability.
Jing Xi didnt need to inherit the Jing familys huge business, but she had to know how to run thepany.
Ji moxuan suppressed the words he wanted to say and continued to call some people he knew. A batch ofpany goods had been detained by the customs yesterday. He had to get it back as soon as possible, or he would have to face a hugepensation.
If he became stronger, would Jing Xi fall in love with him?

Ji moxuan wasnt the only one who had such thoughts. Luo Feiyang thought the same as well.
He was more eager than anyone to develop thepany and prove his ability!
In the afternoon, the three of them wanted to go to the restaurant downstairs for lunch, but tan Ruyi brought a huge pile of food into Luo Feiyangs office.
Tan Ruyi, what are you doing here? Didnt you run faster than a rabbitst time?
Luo Feiyang was so fierce that tan Ruyi shrank her neck. In her heart, she despised Luo Feiyang for being so petty. He was still so calctive over such a small matter, but she said softly,My cousin asked me to bring you lunch. He said that you should eat well before you work, so that you wont tire yourself out.
Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuans heads were filled with question marks. Would Lou Ziling be so kind?
That was impossible!
It was already good enough that he didnt poison them to death. Why would he care about their health?
Luo Feiyang rushed to open the lunchboxes and saw that they were filled with exquisite dishes and a variety of fruit sds. Suddenly, he understood that Lou Ziling was not concerned about them. These were clearly for Jing Xi!
Jing Xi also thought that Lou Ziling was giving her food. She had experienced his coldness before. He would never give food to anyone else.
She had a faint smile on her face as she waved at Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan,You two go downstairs to eat, all of these are mine! Look at how considerate my boyfriend is. Dont you think its time for you to find a girlfriend?
Luo Feiyang was so angry that he vomited blood.Xixi, youre stabbing a knife into my fragile heart! He said. Whats so good about Lou Ziling? Youve really be his girlfriend? Youre still young, you should focus on your career first, dont be in a hurry to fall in love!
Im doing this for both my career and my love life. Dont say anything bad about Lou Ziling, or yourpany will go bankrupt tomorrow!
There was a hint of pride in Jing Xis tone. She had just realized that she was indeed both in love and career!
Ji moxuans expression was even more sorrowful than Luo Feiyang S. He walked out of the office alone dejectedly. He ignored Luo Feiyangs calls from behind.
Look at how pitiful mo Xuan is. He must have found a corner to cry by himself! No, no, I feel like Im going to cry too! Tan Ruyi,e over and lend me your shoulder!
Tan Ruyi was so scared that she quickly stepped back.No, no, no. My mom said that I cant lend money or my shoulders to anyone else!
She had already understood that her cousin really liked Jing Xi, and the two had already started an official rtionship!
This was really big news. She had never heard her cousin mention it before, so she definitely didnt know about it!
Youre too petty. Cant you even lend me a shoulder? You stole my pink diamond ring that was worth more than four million Yuan and Ive already forgiven you. See how generous I am!
At the mention of this, tan Ruyisbat power suddenly soared. She was no longer afraid and said angrily,I didnt steal, didnt steal, didnt steal! Your friends are framing me. Theyre the same as you, theyre not good people! If you ruin my reputation again, Im going to call the police!
Luo Feiyangs eyes widened.Ive really learned something new. Youre acting so righteously as a thief these days! He actually dared to call the police? Did you think that the police wouldnt be able to investigate it clearly after such a long time?
He took a step forward, grabbed tan Ruyis cor, and shouted angrily,Lets go and find the police. I didnt want to fuss about this, but youre the one who walked into the muzzle. Dont me me for being cruel!
Jing Xi didnt take Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyis bickering seriously. She sat on the sofa with a smile and began to eat lunch.
Although Luo Feiyang was extremely arrogant, he couldnt really leave tan Ruyi to the police. Otherwise, he wouldnt be able to exin it to Lou ruofei.
Tan Ruyi tried her best to cover her clothes so that she wouldnt be exposed. She was so anxious that tears were about to fall.What are you doing? Why are you taking off my clothes? I wont call the police, I wont call the police, let me go!
Luo Feiyang was so angry that smoke wasing out of his head.Who took off your clothes! Do you think youre very good looking? I dont have
Before Luo Feiyang could finish his sentence, tan Ruyis white shirt-style school uniform was torn by him.
Ah!
Tan Ruyi screamed and cried,pervert! Help, mom!
Jing Xi was dumbfounded at the scene. She quickly got up and hugged tan Ruyi, covering her chest andforting her,Dont cry, dont cry. Its okay. Hes blind and didnt see anything!
Luo Feiyang rubbed his eyes and silently took the me for being blind.
That Tan Ruyi, I didnt do it on purpose. Its just that the quality of your school uniform is so-so, how can you have such an unstable shirt? I didnt even use much strength!
Tan Ruyi was still in shock. She leaned on Jing Xi and cried.
She was a conservative person, and she was so embarrassed and angry that she wanted to die when a man suddenly saw her chest.
Tan Ruyis breasts had only grown in the past two years, but the bigger they were, the more embarrassed she became. Sometimes, she would deliberately bend down when she walked to make them look tter.
She wanted to wear tight-fitting underwear to tighten her chest, but her mother, Wang Qiu, firmly refused to let her tie her chest, saying that it was not good for her body.
Wang Qiu had bought her thin cotton undergarments to wear so that her breasts would not look big.
Tan Ruyi cried miserably. Those who didnt know would think that Luo Feiyang had done something to her!
Hey, hey, hey, dont cry. Its not a big deal. There are a lot of big-breasted beauties in bikinis on the beach United States, and many of them swim naked. Even if youre naked, Ill
Luo Feiyang had only finished half of his sentence when tan Ruyi cried even louder.
Jing Xi red at him.Dont you know how to talk? How could the situation in A city be the same as in the United States? Which girl did you see swimming naked here? Hurry up and go out and buy Ruyi a shirt that looks like her school uniform!
Not to mention a conservative high school student like tan Ruyi, even an adult might not be so honest to show a mans chest, right?
Luo Feiyangs forehead was covered in sweat. He knew very well that tan Ruyi was different from those women. He just wanted tofort her, but who knew he would say the wrong thing!
He rushed out, but when he reached the door, he turned back. He took off his suit, put it on tan Ruyi, and then fled.
Jing Xi suddenly felt that this scene was a little familiar. After thinking for a while, she realized that Luo Feiyangs action of draping a coat over tan Ruyi was very simr to how Lou Ziling had drapped a coat over her today.
She smiled and wrapped tan Ruyi in Luo Feiyangs suit.Dont cry, Ruyi. Luo Feiyang is gone, so its just the two of us here!
Tan Ruyi wiped her tears with all her might, wrapped herself tightly in her suit, and was about to leave.
Where are you going? Jing Xi stopped her.
I I I want to go home, tan Ruyi said softly.What if Luo Feiyanges back and bullies me again?
Chapter 1534
Chapter 1534: He is cold on the outside but warm on the inside
Trantor: 549690339
He won t. With me here, he wont dare to bully you again.
Jing Xi pulled tan Ruyi to the sofa and sat down.Even if you want to go home, you should change your clothes. Your mother will be worried if you go home with an opening. Besides, he didnt mean to tear your clothes just now. He was so nervous that his forehead was covered in sweat. You might not have noticed.
Tan Ruyi remained silent. She was also afraid that Wang Qiu would be worried if she went home dressed like this.
Wang Qiu had raised her by herself and had done everything possible to protect her from harm. If she knew that her clothes had been pulled and her underwear was exposed, she would be heartbroken.
However, was Luo Feiyang nervous?
Tan Ruyi did not believe it.
This person was so bad, fierce, and arrogant. She had to stay away from him in the future!
Fortunately, Jing Xi was here, or she would have been scared to death.
Tan Ruyi thanked Jing Xi in a low voice. Since she had known Jing Xi, Jing Xi had always spoken up for her and believed that she had not stolen anything. She was very grateful.
Jing Xi smiled.What are you thanking me for? I should be the one thanking you. I only found outter that you were the one who told Lou Ziling in time and saved me when I was taken away in the United States. The woman who took me away is a lunatic. If I fall into her hands, Ill definitely suffer!
Tan Ruyis attention was diverted. She smiled in embarrassment.Its nothing. I know youre cousins friend, so Ill tell him immediately if you have anything. That Are you going to be my cousin-inw?
What? Jing Xiughed.If you have a cousin-inw in the future, itll definitely be me! Ive given Lou Ziling two choices. One is to be single for the rest of his life, and the other is to live with me. Haha!
Tan Ruyi was surprised. She didnt understand why such a good girl like Jing Xi would like her cousin.
Lou Zilings cold and unsociable nature was well known to all his rtives and friends. Even Lou ruofei could not stand him sometimes. Didnt Jing Xi think that he could not live with her with his personality?
My cousin chose to spend it with you, right?
Wrong! He chose to be a Bachelor for the rest of his life!
Ah?
He would rather be single than have you? tan Ruyis eyes widened.
After she asked, she felt that something was wrong. Lou Ziling was so meticulous that he had sent her to deliver a super luxurious lunch to Jing Xi. He must care about Jing Xi a lot.
I heard the three of you say that youre already my cousins girlfriend!
Jing Xi nodded and said,maybe he doesnt want to be single for the rest of his life? Its not bad to correct ones mistakes, so Im giving him a chance!
Tan Ruyi nodded vigorously.Yes, yes, yes. I have to give my cousin a chance. Hes cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Maybe, maybe Hes quite good at taking care of people
She lowered her voice as she was not confident enough. Lou Ziling was cold on the outside but cold on the inside. He was not hot at all!
Besides, she had told Jing Xi her age before. Jing Xi was only seventeen years old, still very young!
Tan Ruyi felt extremely guilty to be poisoned by her cousin at such a young age.
As the two of them were talking, there was a knock on the door. Im back!
When tan Ruyi heard this voice, she immediately hugged herself tightly and shrank.
Jing Xi patted her on the shoulder and got up to open the door.Leave your clothes, go somewhere else!
Luo Feiyang was sweating.This is my office. Why did you kick me out? Im your boss.
Who asked you to tear the girls clothes!
Jing Xi red at him and closed the door with a bang. She walked to tan Ruyi with the paper bag and turned her back to avoid looking at her, so that she wouldnt be embarrassed.Quickly change into the new one! Its a good thing your school uniform is ordinary, otherwise it would be hard to buy.
Tan Ruyi took out the clothes and quickly took off her own. She changed into a new one and realized that the clothes she had bought were just right.
She was cursing Luo Feiyang in her heart. This man must have bought clothes for countless women before. How could he know the size of her dress with just one look? He was an expert in love!
Jing Xi turned around and saw tan Ruyis clothes. She smiled and said,I didnt expect the second young master of the Luo family to be so good at buying clothes. He doesnt even buy his own size, does he? I actually bought the right one for you!
It cant be. How can you not even buy your own? He must have bought clothes for a lot of girls before, so he knows their size in such detail!
Aiya, youve misunderstood him. Hes really never bought clothes for a woman. You should know that hes a very rich man, and he always gives out diamonds and jewelry. How would he have the time to go to the mall to pick out clothes for girls?
At the mention of the diamond, tan Ruyi suddenly smacked her forehead.Right, I almost forgot something!
She took out a ring from the pocket of her dress and showed it to Jing Xi.My cousin gave me the ring a while ago. He said that it was for Luo Feiyang to give me as an apology. No matter how I think about it, it doesnt seem right. He said that this was originally a gift for you. I think its better to return it to you.
She didnt dare to ask Luo Feiyang directly, because she was afraid that Luo Feiyang would say that she had stolen his things again.
She was a good student with excellent character and academic performance, and she was also an outstanding ss Committee member. She didnt want to be framed again.
If the reputation of a thief were to spread to her school, tan Ruyi could not imagine what she would face. When that time came, the teachers and students would definitely look at her with strange eyes and guard against her as if she was a thief. It was too scary!
Jing Xi nced at the huge diamond ring, but refused to take it. This ring isnt mine. If you want to return it, you should return it to Luo Feiyang!
She keptughing in her heart because she knew the whole story. Luo Feiyang had scolded Lou Ziling many times and despised her for using her diamond ring as a mortgage.
It turned out that Lou Ziling had given it to tan Ruyi and said that it was Luo Feiyang who gave it to her!
Wasnt he afraid that Luo Feiyang would ask him for the ring back once he had the money?
Quickly put away the ring, this is very valuable! If youre short on pocket money, you can sell this, and you wont have to worry about your college tuition! You can do whatever you want with it, just dont give it to me. Luo Feiyang didnt say that it was mine. If he really wanted to give it to me, he would have given it to me long ago. How could it fall into your cousins hands?
Tan Ruyi didnt dare to sell the ring so easily. Otherwise, she wouldnt be able to buy the same ring even if she sold herself. If Luo Feiyang asked her for the ring, it would be bad if she couldnt take it out.
Since Jing Xi refused to ept it, tan Ruyi had no choice but to put the ring back into her pocket and walk out slowly under great pressure.
She opened the door, turned a corner, and walked into the corridor. Then, she bumped into Luo Feiyang, who was running over in a hurry.
With a plop, the two of them fell to the ground at the same time.
Chapter 1535
Chapter 1535: Scheming
Trantor: 549690339
Tan Ruyis figure was smaller. Her nose hit Luo Feiyangs hard chest directly, and she felt like her nose was about to break!
What was even more painful was that Luo Feiyang was pressing her down. Her entire back fell onto the marble floor, and it was so painful that tears came out of her eyes.
Luo Feiyang was fine and even scolded angrily,
Whats the matter with you? Dont you have eyes when youre walking? Im such a handsome man, and you cant even see me? Or did you intentionally bump into me?
Tan Ruyi was almost out of breath. She was in so much pain that she couldnt say a word. She subconsciously pushed Luo Feiyangs chest, trying to push away the big stone that was pressing on her.
Unfortunately, the stone did not have any self-awareness. He even poked tan Ruyis waist mischievously.Hey, you, dont touch me. Youll have to pay if you touch me!
Tan Ruyi shook her head in pain. As she shook her head, two lines of blood flowed out from her nose.
Luo Feiyang was very surprised and very proud.Tsk, tsk, tsk, youve been charmed by my handsomeness, havent you? look at how bloody your nose is, have you been secretly in love with me for a long time? Its okay, you can just confess loudly, and I will definitely Reject you without hesitation! You know that the person I like is Jing Xi!
He shamelessly praised himself. After waiting for a while, he realized that tan Ruyi didnt respond. He took a closer look and realized that the person under him had fainted!
Luo Feiyangs face turned pale. He hurriedly got off tan Ruyi and shook her desperately.Hey, hey, hey, tan Ruyi! Why are you pretending to faint? Quickly wake up!
Tan Ruyiy on the cold marble floor silently. She didnt respond to Luo Feiyangs words at all.
Luo Feiyang waspletely flustered. He did not expect that such a light knock would knock tan Ruyi unconscious!
He immediately picked tan Ruyi up and ran into the elevator. When he got out of the elevator, he quickly put tan Ruyi into the car and drove her to the hospital.
Jing Xi finished her lunch alone in Luo Feiyangs office. She waited for a long time but did not see Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang. She could not help but call them.
She could get through to Ji moxuans phone, but he didnt pick up. Jing Xis head was full of question marks. She didnt know what was going on with him. She could only call Luo Feiyang again, but he didnt pick up either.
Jing Xi had no choice but to give up looking for them and start working alone in the office.
In a Garden House, Wu Wei saw that Ji moxuans phone had finally stopped ringing, and his lips revealed a cold smile.
She stared at the record of the five missed calls for a while, picked up the phone, entered the password to unlock it, and quickly deleted the call record.
After deleting the records, Wu Wei put Ji moxuans phone back in its original ce.
Ji moxuan walked out of the bathroom while drying his hair and asked in confusion,Did someone call me just now?
No! Li Wei was confused.
Oh, I might have heard wrong.
Ji moxuan did not suspect Wu Wei. He sat on the sofa and looked at his phone. Seeing that there were no missed calls, he was a little disappointed.
He didnt go back to thepany, and Jing Xi didnt look for him. Did he have no ce in her heart?
The disappointment on Ji moxuans face was clearly visible, and the jealousy in Wu Weis eyes disappeared in a sh. A gentle smile hung on her face,Ill wipe it for you. Look at you, youre like a child. You dont even know how to take care of yourself.
She took the towel and gently dried Ji moxuans hair.
Ji moxuan originally wanted to refuse, but Wu Wei rubbed it toofortably, so he let her be.
However, as they were wiping each others faces, they somehow ended up hugging each other.
Because she was at home, Wu Wei only wore a thin silk dress with a low neckline, revealing arge area of her body. Her outline was clearly visible under the thin dress, exuding a fatal temptation.
Ji moxuan could only feel the blood in his entire body surging. When he thought of Jing Xis rejection of him, his heart suddenly burned with anger.
He pushed Wu Wei down and vented his anger on her.
However, after venting, Ji moxuan immediately regretted it.
Didnt you make up your mind to stay away from Wu Wei? Why did he
Forget it, its not the first time anyway. Ill just give Wu Wei more money.
Ji moxuan put on his clothes and handed a card to Wu Wei before he left.Take good care of yourself. Dont work too hard during filming. This is for you. Go and buy some clothes that you like. Youre so pretty, so you should dress up.
Wu Wei pushed the card back and said in a sweet and gentle tone,Dont be like this, mo Xuan. Im only following you willingly because I like you, not for your money. Just now I liked it too. Dont give me money, I can earn my own money now.
Ji moxuan looked at her steadily and suddenly realized that Wu Wei seemed to be getting more and more beautiful. The charm and enchantment that exuded from her bones was something that no other woman couldpare to.
No wonder he was seduced by her every time. There should be no man who could resist Wu Weis charm!
Ji moxuans steps that had taken a step out came back. He suddenly carried Wu Wei and walked towards the bedroom.
He didnt go to work today. No one needed him anyway. Only Wu Wei really liked him, so he would stay here and apany her for a day!
Didnt she like acting?
He could help her take a lookter and contact a few production teams to let her y the female lead.
Wu Wei had already calcted everything in his heart. If she took the money, then Ji moxuan would feel that they didnt owe each other anything. If she wanted his help again, it wouldnt be easy to ask. But if she didnt take the money, with Ji moxuans softheartedness, he would definitely take the initiative to help her get a role!
She took off all her clothes and revealed her most beautiful side to Ji moxuan.
She was very confident in dealing with Ji moxuan.
In family MUs Hospital, Luo Feiyang was pacing anxiously outside the emergency room. He had left his phone in the car, so he had no idea that Jing Xi was calling him.
He had wanted to call Jing Xi and ask her toe over and help, but he didnt have his phone with him. He was also afraid that tan Ruyis life would be in danger, so he didnt dare to leave easily. He could only wait outside.
If Lou ruofei knew that she had knocked tan Ruyi unconscious, she would definitely be heartbroken. She didnt know if she would be scolded to death by Luo feilue.
Luo Feiyang could only pray that nothing would happen to tan Ruyi and that his brother and sister-inw would not return to city A in the next few days.
After a long time, the doctor finally came out of the emergency room.
Are you the patients family member?
Luo Feiyang was stunned.No, no. Im her friend. How is she?
Its nothing serious. I just have a mild concussion and my spine is slightly injured. I might need to stay in bed for a month.

Chapter 1536: Your boyfriend is really good to you
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang finally heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that she was fine. He had no ce to cry even if he wanted to.
Tan Ruyi was transferred into the ward and woke up very quickly. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Luo Feiyangs magnified face and almost fainted again.
Her head was still dizzy, and her back was still in pain. Tan Ruyi wanted to hide further away, but the slight movement of getting up hurt her so much that she cried out in pain and did not dare to move.
Dont move. Lie down properly. If anything happens to you, do you think Ill be able to live?
In a hurry, Luo Feiyang pressed down on tan Ruyi. Only after he pressed down did he feel that the feeling was not right. It was too soft andfortable!
This time, tan Ruyi couldnt lie down at all. She was so scared that she forgot the pain for a moment. She pushed Luo Feiyang away fiercely, got out of bed, and ran out, looking like she was in a hurry to escape.
She was so flustered and dizzy that she didnt even know where she was. After taking a few steps, she couldnt keep her bnce and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Luo Feiyang had asked for a high-ss room for her. The floor was covered with ayer of soft carpet. Otherwise, she would have fallen quite badly.
Luo Feiyang was so worried that his hair had turned white. He hated himself for pressing on tan Ruyis chest in a moment of desperation!
She had cried when he saw her before. Now that he had touched her, tan Ruyi wouldnt want to die, right?
He quickly stepped forward and picked tan Ruyi up by the waist.
Tan Ruyi was frightened. She struggled and screamed desperately. Luo Feiyang had just put her on the bed when she got up again and tried to escape.
Luo Feiyang pressed down on her shoulders. After wrapping her in the nket, he pressed her down again. He scolded her for a while and then coaxed her. He was so busy that he was sweating.
If you keep running, Ill take off all your clothes! Are you an idiot? I just identally pressed the wrong ce. Do you have to act like youre crazy?
Shut up! Dont call me that, or Ill kiss you! This is the most effective way to shut up!
Alright, alright, alright. Ill apologize to you, alright? This is the hospital. You fainted just now, and the doctor said you need to rest. Its best not to get out of bed and walk around, or youll be in a vegetative state in the future! Do you want to be in a vegetative state?
After coaxing her for a while, Luo Feiyang suddenly realized that it was useless to force tan Ruyi. It was best to soften up!
I was wrong, I was wrong. Im not a thirsty person, it was really a mistake. If youre still angry, Ill let you touch me back. My pecs are very strong, do you want to touch them?
What kind of nonsense was this!
Theres still a thing called touching back?
She had touched him, but she was still being taken advantage of by him!
Tan Ruyis originally pale face quickly turned red. Seeing that Luo Feiyang really took her hand to touch his chest muscles, she was so scared that she quickly retracted her hand and hid it under the nket.
Luo Feiyang was still on top of her, afraid that she would run away. The two of them were so close that they could feel each others breathing.
Luo Feiyang didnt think much of it, but tan Ruyi felt the mans breath on her face and buried her face in the nket in embarrassment.
Why are you covering your head? do you want to suffocate yourself?
Luo Feiyang didnt understand tan Ruyis embarrassment and helplessness. He pulled the nket away and revealed tan Ruyis face. Seeing that her face was as red as an Apple, he immediately became anxious. Dont tell me youre having a fever? Youre not allowed to go anywhere, Ill call the doctor to take a look at you!
Tan Ruyi was shocked and quickly pulled him back.No, no, Im fine!
Let the doctor take a look. If anything happens to you, my brother will kill me!
Just as Luo Feiyang was about to leave, the door to the ward opened. The doctor Who had examined tan Ruyi earlier walked in and waved a ring in his hand.I found it in the emergency room just now. Whose is it?
The pink diamond on the ring was too eye-catching. Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyi said in unison,
Its mine!
Its mine!
The doctor smiled and said in a serious tone,Yes, its yours!
He thought that the two of them were a couple, so he passed the ring to Luo Feiyang, who was closer to him.Such a valuable thing, you have to take good care of it next time. Youngdy, your boyfriend is really good to you. Not only did he give you such a big diamond ring, but he was also waiting for you at the door of the emergency room. Cherish it!
Tan Ruyis eyes widened, and she was so anxious that her tongue was tied.No, no, I-I-I Hes not!
The doctor gave an understanding look and walked away with a smile. Tan Ruyi wanted to exin further, but she had no way of doing so.
However, when she heard the doctor say that Luo Feiyang had been watching over her, her anger finally dissipated a little.
Luo Feiyang wasntpletely inhuman. It was just that his young masters temper was a little too bad.
Luo Feiyang held the ring in his hand and looked suspicious.Whats going on, tan Ruyi? tell me clearly, how did this ring end up with you again? Are you addicted to stealing?
The warmth that had just risen in tan Ruyis heart suddenly disappeared!
Her eyes reddened with grievance and she bit her lip hard. Enduring the dizziness, nausea, and pain in her back, she lifted the nket and walked out.
Luo Feiyang was furious,e back! Im here worried that youll feel ufortable and that youll have residual effects in the future, so Ive been carefully coaxing you. But you just left like that, thinking that you wont die, right?
He threw tan Ruyi onto the bed for the second time and held her down angrily.Stay here!
I dont need you to care about me! Isnt it good that Im dead? From now on, no one will ever steal your ring!
Tan Ruyi said these words in anger, and her tears fell inrge drops.
Her face was pale and her body was trembling. She looked like a little white rabbit being pressed down by a beast. She wanted to resist but had no strength.
Luo Feiyang couldnt stand tan Ruyis behavior. She made him look like he was an unpardonable criminal!
Although he was a rich young master, he had never done anything to hurt a girl. The girls who had been in love with him basically did not say anything bad about him after they broke up, and they all recognized his character.
Why did he be a wolf when it came to tan Ruyi?
Impulsiveness was the devil, and he had lost his temper just now and scolded her.
How could he have forgotten that this girl needed to be coaxed? she could be persuaded by reason but not coaxed by force!
Luo Feiyang gritted his teeth so hard that they almost broke, but he could only suppress his anger and coax her patiently.Dont always run out, okay? Your shoes are still in my car, and youre running out barefooted? If you really like this ring, Ill give it to you, as long as you obediently recuperate and dont touch it.
Luo Feiyang suddenly became as gentle as water and even wanted to give her the ring. Tan Ruyi only felt her hair stand on end and did not even dare to cry!
Could he havee up with some scheme to use the ring to kill her?
Tan Ruyis little heart was about to burst from fear. She med Lou Ziling in her heart. Her cousin had caused her so much pain. Why did he give her the ring? Why couldnt he give it to Jing Xi?
Chapter 1537
Chapter 1537: Ill give you the ring!
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang saw tan Ruyis disbelieving face. He hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly stuffed the ring into tan Ruyis palm.
Here you go, take it and y with it!
This excuse was exactly the same as Lou Ziling s!
Tan Ruyi quickly gave the ring to Luo Feiyang.No, no, no, I dont want it, I dont want it!
Just take it. You seem to like this ring a lot. Anyway Im not short of money. Youre my sister-inws cousin, so in terms of rtives, Im your brother. Its nothing for an older brother to give his younger sister a small gift!
Luo Feiyang still remembered that at Luo feijues wedding, he and tan Ruyi were the best man and bridesmaid respectively. When he secretly opened the ring to take a look, tan Ruyi even leaned in to take a look.
Tan Ruyi was so shocked that she couldnt close her mouth. What was going on? did water enter Luo Feiyangs brain?
Who has a brother or sister? Lou Ziling is her only brother!
She watched as Luo Feiyang stuffed the diamond ring back into her hands and quickly exined,Its not that I like this ring. My cousin gave it to me. He said that this is for you to give me as an apology. He said that youre sorry for misunderstanding that I stole your ring!
Lou Ziling?
Luo Feiyangs eyes were aze with fire!
He had used his diamond ring as coteral and then turned around to give it to tan Ruyi!
Good! Very good!
Luo Feiyang was so angry that his eyebrows were flying. He could not wait to find Lou Ziling and fight her!
Tan Ruyi was so angry that she shrank into the quilt in fear.Y-y-you Dont hit me! Ive never stolen anything from you. These two incidents were idents. Not Every girl likes diamonds! This, this This is just a pretty rock. I dont think its as important as my math textbook
Luo Feiyang frowned.Thats impossible. Girls like these kinds of things. Rubies, sapphires, pearls, and diamonds. The more expensive they are, the more they like them! This one can buy an entire train of math textbooks!
Tan Ruyi actually liked these kinds of shiny gems. Her mothers wedding ring was also very beautiful and precious. She had always wanted one.
However, ever since she met Luo Feiyang, she hadpletely lost interest in diamonds!
Because this beautiful and luxurious pink diamond was simply a disaster for her!
Tan Ruyi stretched out her hand, and the ringy quietly in her palm.
Was she beautiful?
Of course she was beautiful.
This ring was always with her. Every night, when it was quiet, she would take it out to look.
Such an essory was worth millions. She didnt even know how to hide the ring.
He would leave it at home, in case it was stolen by a thief. He would bring it with him, in case he identally lost it.
Tan Ruyi suddenly showed a faint smile and said to Luo Feiyang,You can give it to the girl you like. Youre right, most girls like these gemstones. Dont give it to me, its such a waste!
Luo Feiyang was dazzled by her smile. At first nce, tan Ruyi didnt look like a stunning beauty, but she was the kind that was easy to look at. Her facial features were small and delicate, and when she smiled, there were two shallow dimples. She was very likable.
Luo Feiyang rubbed his eyes. He felt that he had beencking women recently, so he was hallucinating!
This girls skin was a little fair, but what else did she have?
No need, Ill give it to you! The girl I like has already thrown herself into your cousins arms. Her family is very rich, so its useless even if I give her a truck full of diamonds.
It was no longer appropriate to give this ring to anyone.
Luo Feiyang was willing to give it to Jing Xi, but Jing Xi would definitely not ept it.
Luo Feiyang couldnt bear to give it to another girl. The diamond was very expensive, and even the style of the ring was personally designed by him. It took a long time to find a master to make it. It would be a waste to leave it at home. He didnt want to exchange the ring for money.
This ring could grow legs and run to tan Ruyi every time. Perhaps it was really fated with her, so it was no big deal to give it to her.
Lou ruofei was so good to him. Every time Luo feicui lost his temper and hit someone, Lou ruofei was the one who protected him. He didnt feel bad about giving the ring to Lou ruofeis cousin.
Luo Feiyang convinced himself and finally made up his mind.Its really yours. Your hands are beautiful, it should fit you. The size of this ring can be adjusted. Try it on, I havent seen the effect on your hand yet!
After the ring was made, only he and tan Ruyi had touched it. Jing Xi didnt even look at it carefully, let alone try it on.
Tan Ruyi was dumbfounded. A diamond ring was meant to be used for a proposal. Luo Feiyang wanted her to wear it?
This, this, this
Luo Feiyang immediately saw through tan Ruyis thoughts. He red at her and said,What are you thinking? no one wants the ring, so Im just letting you y with it! I wouldnt find someone as stupid as you to be my girlfriend. You can faint from a simple bump and have a nosebleed and a concussion. Even paper is tougher than yours!
Tan Ruyi quickly touched her nose and only rxed when she saw that there was no blood. Then, she suddenly reacted,A concussion? Im done for, I have an exam next Monday. I wont fall down and hurt my brain, so I cant answer the questions, right?
Luo Feiyang rolled his eyes at her.Thats not a concussion. Thats brain damage!
He stood up and poured a ss of hot water for tan Ruyi.Ill go down for a while and bring your shoes up. Youre not allowed to run around, do you hear me?
I feel dizzy and ufortable. I think my back is broken and it hurts badly. Do you think I want to run?
You were running faster than a rabbit just now, why didnt I see you in pain? Dont worry, my bones are fine. Ill be fine after a month!
Luo Feiyang turned around and walked out. He kept sighing.Sigh, youre so weak. Ive fought so many times and Im still alive. Am I a mutant?
He went downstairs to get tan Ruyis shoes and picked up his phone. Then he saw a bunch of missed calls from Jing Xi.
He was shocked and quickly replied, exining the situation and pleading again and again,Xixi, Im a man. Its too inconvenient for me to take care of tan Ruyi. Can youe and help me?
On the other end of the phone, Jing Xi smiled slyly.Youve injured him, why do you still want me to take care of the injured? Its fine that I work for you every day, but now I have to be a free nanny? You can serve Ruyi well, I wont go!
Don t, don t, don t, I didnt mean it that way! Ill give you money, so your hard work wont be in vain!
Oh my, you want to hire the youngdy of family Jing as a nanny? Luo Feiyang, youre pretty rich!
No, no, no, I was wrong! I I Dont have money
Luo Feiyangs head was spinning. He was so poor now, and he even owed Jing Xi two million Yuan. How could he have money?
Forget it, he would take care of tan Ruyi himself.
There was no justice in this world. He gave tan Ruyi a diamond worth more than four million Yuan for free and even had to be her nanny. He, Luo Feiyang, was really getting worse and worse!

Chapter 1538: Hitting someone when he couldnt bear it anymore
Trantor: 549690339
After hanging up the phone, Jing Xi didnt really ignore Luo Feiyang. She bought some fruit and went straight to the hospital.
Of course, she wouldnt take care of tan Ruyi. It was most appropriate for Luo Feiyang to do it himself. Maybe he could even create some sparks?
Wouldnt it be strange if she were to stand between them?
Jing Xi went to the hospital in a good mood. When she was checking on tan Ruyis ward at the front desk, she happened to meet mu Sen.
Her eyes lit up and she called out to him in a clear voice,Brother mu!
Mu Sen was dressed in a white coat. He was handsome and gentle like jade, attracting a lot of attention.
When he saw Jing Xi, his smile was warm, revealing his white teeth. He reached out and touched Jing Xis hair.Little girl, youre getting prettier and prettier. You look different every day. I cant even recognize you anymore!
If Jing Rui or Jing Zhi wanted to touch her head, Jing Xi would avoid them and even p their hands away.
In Jing Xis heart, they were both brothers. There was nothing she couldnt say. If she didnt like them, she would re at them to show her dislike.
However, mu Sens identity was a little different.
Although mu Sen was Jing Xis cousin, Jing Xi had never felt that they were close rtives.
When she was young, she was insensible and cried that she wanted to marry mu Sen. Even now, she still felt that mu Sen was very warm and sunny. She would live a happy life if she married him.
Therefore, when she faced mu Sen, she would act as if she was facing someone important. She would act dignified and appropriate, without the kind of unrestrained liveliness.
Therefore, she did not Dodge. Mu Sens handnded on her hair.
Jing Xi felt stiff and ufortable for a moment, but she quickly recovered. It was just a brothers love for his sister. It was nothing.
But why was she so ufortable?
Jing Xi hid it well, and mu Sen did not notice her uneasiness. He saw Jing Xi carrying a fruit basket and asked with a smile,Who did youe to the hospital to see? As far as I know, your family is very healthy, and you havente to take care of my business for a long time!
He said it in an interesting and gentle tone, as if they had just met yesterday.
Jing Xis uneasiness quickly disappeared. She smiled and said,Its a friend of mine. Shes slightly injured and scared, so Im here to see her.
Do you need me to help you take a look?
With mu Sens treatment, Jing Xi was of course happy.Sure, if youre good at medicine, my friends body will definitely be fine!
Jing Xi and mu Sen went to tan Ruyis ward together. The two were busy reminiscing and did not notice that someone had been following them.
There were many people in the hospital, especially all kinds of patients. Mu Sen was afraid that Jing Xi would be hit by someone, so he kept reaching out to protect her. asionally, someone would run into her, and he would quickly pull Jing Xi to his side.
When they arrived at the ward, Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyi were both very surprised. They didnt expect Jing Xi toe.
Especially Luo Feiyang. He had called Jing Xi and she had rejected him. Why was he here?
Its good that he didnte over. Tan Ruyi had always been paranoid. She was afraid that he would do something to her and was very guarded against him. Even basicmunication was almost blocked!
If Jing Xi was here, he could still ask her to persuade tan Ruyi and express that he had no feelings for tan Ruyi at all, proving his innocence.
He obviously liked Jing Xi, who was smart, bold, careful, and fearless. How could he like a poor girl who was as stupid as a pig and as timid as a rabbit?
Luo Feiyang looked as if he had just seen his Savior. He almost wanted to hold Jing Xi in his arms and thank her.
Jing Xi saw his action and quickly stepped back. She identally bumped into mu Sen and almost fell.
Mu Sen reached out to hold her shoulders and said with a smile,Why are you still the same as when you were young? youre so careless. If not for
Before he could finish his words, he was punched in the face. He took a few steps back. He could only hear Jing Xis screams, and then he was punched again.
This time, mu Sen was directly hit until he sat on the ground. There was a hot flow in his nose and the smell of blood filled his mouth. With mu Sens many years of medical experience, he judged that if he was punched in the face again, not only would his nose bridge break, even his cheekbones would break.
Lou Ziling!
Jing Xi shouted and rushed forward to hug him.Stop, stop fighting!
Lou Ziling was about to throw a third punch, but she finally stopped.
Luo Feiyang was dumbfounded as he looked at the Furious Lou Ziling. Did Lou Ziling show him mercy when she hit himst time?
Tan Ruyi was scared half to death. This was the first time she had seen her cousin angry. It was too terrifying! He was tall and strong, with a powerful aura, much more frightening than Luo Feiyang!
If it were her, she wouldnt dare to hug Lou Ziling. He looked like he didnt care about his family. What if he killed her?
Jing Xi was really brave!
Tan Ruyi trembled in fear and admired Jing Xi in her heart. She felt that no one other than Jing Xi could tolerate her cousins indifference and bad temper.
However, what surprised tan Ruyi even more was that Jing Xi dared to scold Lou Ziling!
Are you crazy? Are you crazy to hit me the moment youe up?
Jing Xi was so angry that her face turned white. She pushed Lou Ziling aside and quickly went to help mu Sen.Brother mu, are you alright? Your nose is bleeding, your nose It cant be broken, right?
Lou Zilings face turned green as he watched Jing Xi hold mu Sens arm and help him up. He almost couldnt help but punch mu Sen again.
He couldnt stand Jing Xi being so close to other men, not even his cousin!
Whats more, Jing Xi had always had feelings for mu Sen. She always felt that mu Sen was good and warm!
The way Jing Xi was holding mu Sen stung Lou Zilings eyes. He left the ward with a cold body and did not say a word from beginning to end.
As soon as he entered the hospital, he saw mu Sen patting Jing Xis head and following behind them. He watched the two of them talking andughing as they shuttled through the crowd. He saw mu Sen protecting Jing Xi all the time, pulling her to his side from time to time, half hugging and half hugging.
He had been holding it in and telling himself that it was nothing. It was just a small matter.
However, just now, mu Sen had hugged Jing Xi and the two of them were so close to each other. Lou Zilings patience had reached its limit and she couldnt help but hit mu Sen.
Jing Xi was not a little girl anymore, so why were they hugging each other?
He didnt regret his actions, but he regretted that he had hit her too lightly! He should have crippled mu Sen, so that mu Sen would never be able to touch Jing Xi again!
In the ward, mu Sen took out a sterilized cotton handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the blood from his nose. He endured the pain and smiled bitterly.Xixi, are you dating Lou Ziling? He seems to have Misunderstood me!
Chapter 1539
Chapter 1539: Hes a good person
Trantor: 549690339
Im sorry, brother mu, Jing Xi said apologetically.Youre in trouble. Its all my fault.
Mu Sen reached out to touch Jing Xis head again, but he suddenly remembered Lou Zilings cold eyes and stiffly retracted his hand.
Mu Sen knew a little about Jing Xi and Lou Zilings rtionship. The rumor had been spreading in A city for a while, but he did not expect Lou Ziling to be so jealous and violent.
Its fine, it has nothing to do with you.
Mu Sens mouth twitched as he spoke. He was in so much pain that ayer of sweat appeared on his forehead. He thought to himself that he must keep a distance from Jing Xi in the future, or he would lose his life!
Lou Ziling didnt look like his sister at all. Lou ruofei was gentle and dignified. She spoke gently and never acted on impulse.
Thinking of Lou ruofei, mu Sen felt a little helpless. It was useless to think about it again. He could only me himself for not being persistent enough and not pursuing her officially. Now she was married to the United States and became the youngdy of the Luo family.
Luo feicui was really lucky!
Mu Sen suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind and went to the bathroom in the ward to wash the blood off his face.
Jing Xi was still angry in the ward.What kind of person is he? he came up to me and hit me. Whats so great about hitting me? Thanks to brother MUs good temper! Luo Feiyang, what is Lou Ziling doing here?
I called him, Luo Feiyang said.His cousin is injured. I wanted Lou Ziling to send tan Ruyi home.
He didnt expect Lou Ziling to hit him!
Now, not only did he offend Jing Xi, but Lou Ziling also didnt care about tan Ruyi.
Were they even cousins? why didnt Lou Ziling take tan Ruyis injury to heart? she even had the time to be jealous!
Mu Sen washed his hands and came out of the bathroom. He said to Jing Xi,Ill check on your friend first.
Jing Xi nodded and asked tan Ruyi,Ruyi, let him take a look at you again. His name is mu Sen. Hes my cousin and the future heir of this hospital. His medical skills are top-notch!
Family MUs Hospital was so famous in A city that the surname mu had long be synonymous with godly doctor.
Tan Ruyi immediately understood. She knew that the doctor in front of her was the direct descendant of the MU family and the only son of the Dean.
She was extremely excited and thanked him repeatedly.
Not everyone in the MU family could be treated by them. Jing Xi was really too good to her!
Mu Sen took the stethoscope and listened. One side of tan Ruyis face was already swollen, but he still looked at her seriously. Touched, she said,Doctor mu, Im fine. Your face is injured. Hurry and get a doctor to take a look!
After she finished speaking, she realized that mu Sen was a doctor himself. She felt that she had said something wrong and looked embarrassed.
Mu Sen smiled.Dont worry. It wont take much longer. Dont talk, dont be nervous, and keep your breathing steady.
Tan Ruyi immediately nodded. Her face was obedient, and her eyes were bright as she looked at mu Sen with admiration.
Jing Xi didnt think much of it, but Luo Feiyang, who was beside her, felt that it was blinding!
This mu Sen was simply a femme fatale!
With just a few words, he had captured tan Ruyi, who he had just met for the first time! This didnt make sense!
Luo Feiyang stared at mu Sen. He looked decent, but he was not bad either! His looks could be rated as a 100% peerless handsome man!
Moreover, the name mu Sen
This must be the doctor Who once pursued his sister-inw, right?
He heard from his brother that Lou ruofei used toe to mu Sens ce to treat her headache.
Luo feilue had even been jealous of this in private. Luo Feiyang had always used this to mock him for being inferior to a doctor.
Hey, mu, do you go around seducing women?
Not only did he hook up with the patient Lou ruofei, but he also hugged Jing Xi just now. Now, he was hooking up with tan Ruyi, who was as white as a sheet of paper!
Luo Feiyang suddenly felt that Lou Zilings attack was too light!
Mu Sen was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Before he could say anything, Jing Xi was already unhappy.What nonsense are you talking about? brother mu is not that kind of person! Only a yboy like you would go around seducing girls!
Luo Feiyang red at him.How am I talking nonsense? only naive little girls like you and tan Ruyi cant see through it! Im a man, so I understand mens dirty thoughts the best! He shamelessly hugged you just now, and I didnt even have the face to hug you! Look at tan Ruyi, she looks like she cant wait to stick to him!
Luo Feiyang, shut up! Jing Xi said.
Luo Feiyang, youre crazy! Tan Ruyi said.
Oh, so your surname is Luo!
No wonder he didnt like the look of him, he was Luo feilies younger brother!
Yes, my surname is Luo. Luo feilie is my brother, and Lou ruofei is my sister-inw. Whats wrong? do you have an opinion? If you dont like it, Lou ruofei is my sister-inw. She and my brother are very loving and happy!
Luo Feiyangs arrogant words pierced mu Sens heart.
The smile on mu Sens face faded and he said indifferently,I have no objections. I wish ruofei well. Shes a good girl and should be happy.
Jing Xi suddenly remembered that mu Sen used to like Lou ruofei. This was like pouring salt on his wound!
Luo Feiyang, stop talking and get out! Dont affect the doctors treatment of Ruyi!
I paid for this room, why should I go out? If I go out and tan Ruyi is bullied by this unscrupulous doctor, what if Lou Zilinges to me for revenge? Im not going out!
Tan Ruyi looked confused. She didnt know what was going on, but she felt that the atmosphere wasnt right.
She tried to lower her presence so that she would not be scolded by Luo Feiyang again.
Mu Sen gave her a general examination and said,theres nothing serious. Have a good rest. Then, he left the ward.
Everyone could see that mu Sens mood had turned cold.
Whats wrong with you and Lou Ziling? why do you always find trouble with brother mu? Jing Xi was so angry that her head hurt. Did he offend you two?
This can only mean that Lou Ziling and I have brains. You and tan Ruyi have been bewitched by your brother mu! Ive only heard of femme fatale, so it turns out that a blue face can also be a femme fatale!
Youre the troublemaker! Brother mu was a doctor. He treated Ruyi. Shouldnt Ruyi be grateful to him? He didnt even ept a single cent, shouldnt he be doing us a favor?
Jing Xi was annoyed. In her heart, mu Sen had always been a good, outstanding, warm, and wless person.
He had never been ambiguous with anyone else except for Lou ruofei. All these years, he had no woman by his side and had been busy treating people.
Yes, Im very grateful to doctor mu, tan Ruyi said weakly. He, he, he Hes a good person
You can tell if its good or bad with one look?
Luo Feiyang was furious. He didnt feel much about Jing Xi being close to mu Sen. They were cousins after all. What was going on with tan Ruyi?
Chapter 1540
Chapter 1540: A man without a career is not a man
Trantor: 549690339
Im also a good person, why didnt you see it at first nce? Do you think that mu is so handsome that he smiles at you all the time?
Luo Feiyangs voice was a little loud, and Jing Xi and tan Ruyi were a little dumbfounded. They didnt know why he suddenly seemed to have exploded.
Mu Sen had clearly not done anything!
Tan Ruyi felt a little wronged. Couldnt the doctore and take a look at her body?
Previously, Luo Feiyang said that she had to rest in bed for a month, but she still had to go to school. If she didnt go to school for a month, she would fall behind in her studies. She wanted to get better as soon as possible.
It was just a fall, and she felt that it should be nothing. At most, she would be fine after a week of rest.
Youre not a good person
Tan Ruyiined in a low voice,you only know how to frame good people. You didnt even look for the person who really stole your ring. You knocked me down and even scolded the doctor and sent him away. Im not staying in the hospital anymore. Take me home.
Jing Xi felt that there was nothing for her to do here. She was still a little worried about mu Sen and wondered if Lou Ziling had hit him hard.
She smiled at tan Ruyi, waved her hand, and walked out of the ward without paying attention to Luo Feiyang.
Jing Xi found him in mu Sens office and saw him putting an ice pack on his face. She felt a little apologetic.Brother mu, Ill help you!
Mu Sens expression had returned to its usual warmth and sunshine. He smiled gently and said, Its fine. I can handle such a small matter myself. You should go and see Lou Ziling. Dont misunderstand because of me.
Jing Xi nodded and left.
Mu Sen looked at Jing Xis back and suddenly realized that the little girl had really grown up.
In the past, she always liked to chase after him, like to stay in his office, like to go to his house. She clearly had the character of causing trouble everywhere, but she was always very obedient when she was by his side.
And now, she already had someone she truly liked.
Outside the hospital, Jing Xi did not go to look for Lou Ziling. Instead, she went home.
Mu Sen had been beaten up by Lou Ziling for no reason. Lou Ziling should be the one apologizing. She did not do anything wrong and did not need to apologize to Lou Ziling.
The next day was Sunday. Jing Xi went to Luo Feiyangspany as usual. She didnt need to rest. She just wanted to do her work well.
Perhaps, she had to work on Sunday because she was looking forward to meeting someone.
Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang did note to thepany. Usually, the three of them would work overtime on Saturdays and Sundays. Otherwise, they would be idle and waste their time. It would be better to work together and improve thepanys performance.
It was obvious that Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang did not want to fight today. Jing Xi did not feel that it was unfair. She guessed that the two of them were probably apanying women.
It was certain that Luo Feiyang was with tan Ruyi, but he did not know who Ji moxuan was with.
But without the interference of the two, Jing Xi could devote herself to her work. When she encountered problems that she did not understand, she would not discuss it with them. Instead, she called Jing Rui and asked him, the current president of Jingsheng enterprise.
The problems that Jing Xi had encountered were all very simple to Jing Rui. He could often make Jing Xi understand and be enlightened with just a few words.
That weekend, Jing Xi workedte into the night.
However, she didnt feel tired. Instead, she felt a sense of fulfillment and achievement that she had never felt before.
It was not her chauffeur or bodyguard who came to pick Jing Xi up that day, but Jing Rui himself.
Jing Rui said in a joking tone,Youre working so hard to steal my job?
Her brother rarely joked, so Jing Xi was in a good mood. She smiled and said,Your job is too heavy, I cant carry it! However, you still have to hold up the small bowl. I was still thinking of giving my little nephew a helicopter when he gets married! Thest time I took him out to y, he saw a model helicopter and his eyes were fixed on it!
Jing Rui alsoughed,so you bought the helicopter model for him! He thought. You should save up, hes starting to like tanks again!
Oh my, he better not like atomic bombs or whatever. At my level, I cant afford it even if I save for a hundred years!
Staying by her brothers side and listening to his voice and teasing, Jing Xi felt very safe and warm. She had not seen Jing Rui for a long time. Jingsheng enterprise was a huge business empire and they needed him to take control of it every second. He was very busy.
Lou Ziling was simr to him. He was always busy for his career and family. Most of the time, he was cold and ruthless.
Brother, is a career very important to a man?
Jing Rui replied calmly,of course! It could be said that a man without a career was not a man. If I dont do anything every day and rely on your sister-inw to support me, do you think youll want a brother like that?
I cant imagine you being like this. Jing Xi thought for a moment and shook her head.
In recent years, Shuyin had beenmitted to the research and development of viruses. She had already sessfully developed several vines to prevent viruses and had saved countless lives. She was now a specialist at the International Center for Disease Control and control, and the United Nations World Health Organization often invited her to attend meetings and lectures.
With such a powerful wife, Jing Rui would beughed at if he had nothing.
I have to work hard too, or Ill be letting down my surname!
Jing Xi was suddenly full of fighting spirit. Her brother and sister-inw were so powerful. She wanted to be powerful too!
She was the only girl in family Jing and she could not embarrass family Jing.
Wasnt Lou Ziling very good at running apany? She must make Lou Ziling look at her in a new light!
Jing Rui didnt want his sister to suffer. Youre a girl, only 17. You can y however you like. If you dont have enough money, just tell me. You dont need to work hard to earn money.
That wont do. Thatll be so embarrassing! Our Father said that all the properties of family Jing belong to qinche in the future. As an aunt, she cant take money from her nephew!
Jing Che was smart and cute. Jing Xi wanted to give him all the good things in the world.
Jing Rui smiled helplessly.Assets are meant to be squandered. He cant spend that much alone. You can just splurge with him. He will earn it when he grows up. His family name is Jing, and he must know how to make money.
Last time, your second brother said that you want to see song Xin? Ive made an appointment for you. You can have a candlelight dinner with him tomorrow night.
No way, her brother moved so quickly?
How about Forget it, I was just saying it casually that day. He said it to piss Lou Ziling off. Song Xin was too delicate and beautiful. Jing Xi thought he was very suitable to live in a movie and be an idol of youth.
Jing Rui looked at her and said,There are many good men out there. Lou Ziling is just an ordinary man. Song Xin is better than him. Its settled then, see you tomorrow, youre not allowed to stand her up!
Chapter 1541
Chapter 1541: Looks like Im going to hit someone again today
Trantor: 549690339
The night before, song Xin was told that he was going to have dinner with the little princess of the Jing family. He had a headache and couldnt sleep well.
To put it nicely, she was a little princess, but to put it bluntly, she was a little witch!
If the little devils interest was piqued, would she let him perform a strip dance?
No, no, whats a strip show? it should be the kind of heavy sadomasochism, such as binding, wax dripping, and small leather whips!
Song Xin didnt sleep for the entire night. When he woke up the next day, his eyes were filled with dark circles. It scared his manager so much that he quickly boiled an egg and applied it on his eyes.
Song Xin became a singer because of his pure voice, excellent looks, and natural talent in acting. He easily became an actor. His acting career had almost never encountered any obstacles. And because he was signed with Star Media under Jingsheng enterprise, he had the biggest backer as a guarantee and had a smooth journey.
Jing Xis dinner had be the biggest challenge in his acting career.
Sister Chen, can I not go? Just say that Im sick and have diarrhea, the kind that I cant get out of bed!
No, I have to go! Her manager, sister Chen, immediately shook her head. This is your chance. Not everyone can have a meal with thedy of family Jing. If she likes you, you will have more and more resources in thepany. If you make her dislike you, Jingsheng enterprise will shut you out. It will only take one word!
But But I heard that little demon She eats people!
Nonsense, who would eat people! Youre just too well-protected and too na?ve, so much so that you believe everything others say! The youngdy of family Jing is just an ordinary girl. Just treat her as your fan and show her the best side of you.
Sister Chen said it with confidence, but she wasnt sure herself.
Jing Xis image in A city had long been demonized. Her elementary school ssmates used to talk about the change in scenery.
That batch of students and teachers had been tormented by her, and even now, they still had a psychological shadow.
Some time ago, he had even tormented the Li familys eldest miss. In the middle of the night, he had brought people to blow up someone elses Vi. How willful and cruel was this!
Song Xin trembled in fear and trepidation as he endured the entire day. He hoped that the evening wouldeter, but he also hoped that it would be better toe earlier so that he could die earlier and reincarnate earlier!
But Jing Xi was so busy that she almost forgot to eat with song Xin.
Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang still did note to thepany. All the matters in thepany, big and small, were handled by her alone. She also had to guard against the employees in thepany who harbored evil intentions. This made her want to learn how to split herself up.
However, she was still very busy and satisfied. She was not here for money, but when she saw thepany getting better day by day and when she gave orders, she would also feel that this kind of life had meaning.
Liyu Science & Technology had developed so well that she had no use there. The suggestions of the managers of various departments were a hundred times better than her ideas, which made her lose her enthusiasm.
But here, all her ideas were useful, and her methods had been proven to be able to improve performance!
There were also good and conscientious employees in thepany. Most of them didnt know her identity, but they respected her and called her President Jing. They didnt mind her young age and that she was a girl. They were willing to listen to hermands.
She hoped that she could give these people more bonuses and benefits through her own efforts. She also wanted to improve thepanys insurance and organize more events
They had a quick lunch, and in the blink of an eye, it was evening.
Jing Rui had called her and reminded her to be on time.
Jing Xi suddenly realized that the sky was getting dark!
In the past, when she went to see her favorite Star, Jing Xi would tidy herself up, at least do her hair, change into a beautiful dress, and put on bright high heels.
But now, she felt that she didnt have the time to do so. As long as she dressed appropriately, it was enough!
The restaurant they were going to was the most popr restaurant in A city in recent years, golden huannian.
The restaurant was luxurious and expensive, so the consumption was equally extravagant. Ordinary people could not afford such a price, so it became a high-end restaurant where celebrities gathered.
Here, even if the most famous celebrities came, they didnt have to worry about being secretly photographed. There were also very few situations where fans woulde forward to ask for autographs and photos, because those who came were all celebrities, daughters and sons of rich families.
In order to show his respect, song Xin arrived early.
He waited for half an hour, and just as he was about to lose his patience, a girl in a sapphire blue Business suit entered his line of sight.
She was tall and slender, and the sapphire blue color made her skin look smooth and white. Under the light, she looked young. Her long hair fell over her shoulders, and her eyes were bright like stars. She had an elegant temperament and was as beautiful as a white jade Orchid that had just bloomed.
Song Xin was used to seeing all kinds of beautiful women in the entertainment industry. However, he couldnt find any of them that could bepared to the beautiful girl in front of him.
Was there another neer in the entertainment industry?
With her looks and temperament, she would probably quickly be popr once she left the sect.
He stared at the girl without blinking. Under his shocked gaze, the girl walked straight towards him and sat down in the seat opposite him.
Mr. Song? Im sorry, Imte. I made you wait!
Song Xins face was filled with shock. Who was this? Could it be
Hello, Im Jing Xi! Nice to meet you!
It really was her!
Song Xin was a little dumbfounded. The Jing Xi He had imagined in his mind was an ugly demon. The best she could have was a non-mainstream girl with colorful hair, a cigarette in her mouth, and revealing clothes with heavy makeup.
However, he did not expect her to be so elegant and dignified!
And he seemed to be very polite?
Wasnt she a lunatic who was not afraid of anything and even dared to blow up Jingsheng enterprise?
Jing Xi saw that song Xin was staring at her in a daze, and a trace of doubt shed in her eyes.
She looked down at her clothes and then at her face through the phone screen.
There was nothing wrong with it!
Is this song Xin stupid?
He looked so lively and lively on TV, but why did he not match the song Xin in her memory?
Look, Lou Ziling was more pleasing to the eye. Although he had a bad temper and would hit people at any time, he was not so stupid!
What Jing Xi didnt know was that she had shocked song Xin so much. She didnt match the rumors at all. Song Xin couldnt even use the words he had prepared.
Song Xin only regained his senses after a long while. He said with a stiff expression,Miss Jing, nice to meet you!
After that, he didnt know what to say anymore.
He couldnt even remember what his manager had taught him to say to liven up the atmosphere!
Not far from them, Lou Ziling was sitting coldly.
He had just beaten up mu Sen, and it seemed like he was going to beat up someone again today!

Jing Xi did not notice Lou Ziling. Her attention was on song Xin.
Although the song Xin in front of him was in a daze, his face was so perfect that it made people jealous.
His facial features were very delicate, and his face was very small. He was very photogenic. Jing Xi even suspected that song Xins face might be even smaller than hers.
The atmosphere was very good. There was even a violinist ying the violin in the restaurant. The melody was beautiful and it made people happy.
Jing Xi ordered some food and drank some fruit juice. She stretched out her delicate fingers and waved them in front of song Xin.Song Xin, whats wrong?
Its Its nothing!
Song Xins expression finally returned to normal. His acting skills had always been outstanding. Before he left, his manager even told him to just treat it as a filming.
In the movie, he was a caring man who would do anything for the female lead.
Since the girl in front of him was not as scary as the rumors said, he would just treat her as the female lead.
Song Xins face revealed his signature smile and took out a ssic line from an idol drama, Youre the most beautiful girl Ive ever seen!
Jing Xi vaguely felt that she had heard this before, but she couldnt remember. She smiled politely and said,Youre also very handsome!
Song Xin handed Jing Xi arge bouquet of roses that he had prepared.Ive chosen the most popr one. I hope you like it! Im very happy to meet you. I dont have many friends, and Id like to be good friends with you!
Good friend?
Jing Xi smiled, took the flowers, and put them on the table.
At this moment, song Xin finally showed the kind of spirit and aura he had on the screen. Even if he looked like a beautiful woman, Jing Xi still did not think he was too feminine. On the contrary, he had a sunny and youthful look. It was hard to guess his age.
Jing Xi had never checked song Xins age. Her interest in him was only in a TV drama.
However, it was not bad to have a handsome man to eat with her.
Its best to change one every day to anger Lou Ziling to death!
After hitting mu Sen thest time, not only did he not apologize, but he also did note to look for her. Could he have a new girlfriend?
He kept having peach blossoms, and he really made people worry!
Soon, the restaurant began to serve the food. Jing Xi ate elegantly, while song Xin ate even more elegantly than her, and ate very little.
Jing Xi, on the other hand, had finished most of the food by herself.
Song Xin was surprised by Jing Xis appetite, but he smiled gently.It seems like you have a good appetite, unlike those actresses who eat very little because they are afraid of being too fat.
Because Im very thin! Someone said,someone said to let her eat more and gain more weight
What did he say?
Its nothing,
Jing Xi didnt continue, and song Xin didnt ask further. He maintained a gentlemans demeanor, which made Jing Xis impression of him increase.
While she was eating the fruit sd, the White sd identally dripped on the back of her hand. When she was about to wipe it, song Xin had already picked up the napkin, pulled her hand over, and wiped it for her.
Before Jing Xi could pull her hand back, a figure came in front of her and punched song Xin under the table.
Lou Ziling!?
Jing Xi was surprised. No way! He really saw her eating with song Xin!
Song Xin was still lying on the ground in pain. Jing Xi pulled Lou Ziling away and helped him up. Whats going on? why did you hit someone again? I have nothing to do with him, were just having a meal!
If Im not mistaken, youve always ruined my dinner ns with other people. Im just imitating you.
Lou Ziling was gritting her teeth as she spoke.
If song Xin had not touched Jing Xi, he would have tolerated it for a meal. But this kid actually touched Jing Xis hand! How could he endure this!
Youre my girlfriend. Whats wrong with you going on a date with someone else!
Jing Xi helped song Xin up. He clutched his chest and sat on the dining chair with a pale face. When he heard Lou Zilings words, he immediately said,Its a misunderstanding, its not a date, its just a meal!
Even if Jing Xi didnt have a boyfriend, he wouldnt dare to have one! The little demoness of family Jing was indeed crazy.
To be beaten for no reason, song Xin felt angry and aggrieved. However, he obviously couldnt beat the other party. Moreover, as a public figure, he definitely couldnt hit people.
Otherwise, tomorrows entertainment news headlines would be: Actor song Xin got drunk and madly hit people, his disguised image was destroyed! Some unscrupulous media would even exaggerate and nder his character.
But now, he had created the image that he was the victim and that he was innocent. The fans would only feel sorry for him and not scold him.
Song Xins heart was bitter. He had a Halo that ordinary people envied. It seemed to shine brightly, but in reality, if he wasnt careful, he would fall into a bottomless abyss.
He had been beaten up, but the first thing he thought of was his image instead of seeking justice for himself.
It was truly sad!
Lou Ziling ignored song Xin. His whole body was as cold as ice. He grabbed Jing Xis wrist and took her out of the dining room.
Lou Ziling, let go! I dont want to go with you. I want to go home!
Lou Ziling pushed her into her car and said coldly,Sure, Ill send you!
You dont need to send me back. Song Xin will send me back! Open the door, I want to get out!
His words were like adding oil to the fire. Lou Ziling was furious. She said coldly, Its only been a few days and youve fallen for someone else? No matter if its a letter or express delivery, youre not allowed to see them in the future!
You dont even like me, so why are you stopping me from seeing other people? Dont you have a bunch of girlfriends too?
Those people are all before you, and none of them are girlfriends in the truest sense!
Lou Zilings eyes seemed to be burning.Besides, when did I say that I dont like you?
Jing Xi bit her lip and didnt say anything. She turned to look out of the window and saw song Xin being helped out of the restaurant by his assistant. She moved her body and wanted to get out of the car.
Lou Ziling pressed her down even harder.Dont make a fuss and stay in the car obediently. Otherwise, Ill go and give song Xin another punch!
Im so sorry! Jing Xi was both angry and amused.Ive just had a meal with you, and you got beaten up! Hes a celebrity with tens of millions of fans. If everyone knows that you hit him, youll be attacked by your fans every day!
Lou Ziling didnt say anything. She just held Jing Xi in her arms and didnt allow her to get out of the car.
You even hit brother mu. What are you thinking? hes my cousin and I even slept with him when I was young. Are you going to kill him?
And slept together?
Lou Zilings body temperature dropped rapidly.It seems that I hit him too lightly that day! Dont worry, Ill go again in a few days. This time, he wont be so lucky!
Chapter 1543
Chapter 1543: Not considering
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi was afraid that he was being serious, so she quickly said,You cant hit him anymore. Weve never slept together, alright?
Lou Ziling didnt say anything. Jing Xi held his face in her hands and forced him to look at her.Aiya, I really didn t. Its true that I slept at his house, but I slept separately! Besides, I was only a few years old at that time, and he only treated me as a younger sister! Of course, I still am now!
Lou Ziling finally felt better.
When he wanted to avoid Jing Xi and stay away from her, she would always appear in his life in various ways, smiling brightly and invading his heart in an overbearing way.
He had never dared to admit his feelings and had been running away, but in the end, he had not been able to escape.
He still fell into her hands.
However, after he had lost, she had changed.
In her world, he was not the only one. There were many other men who attracted her.
She had more and more friends, and his position was getting further and further back. She first took care of mu Sen and song Xin, but he was the one who was pushed away.
Lou Ziling used to think that she was different, but now she felt that she was no different from the others.
Perhaps he was the only one who fell deeper and deeper.
He never let anyone enter his heart easily, but Jing Xi was too persistent. She didnt care about anything and bloomed in his lonely world.
Lou Ziling raised her hand, wanting to touch Jing Xis face, but she restrained herself and slowly lowered her hand.
She was indeed too young to understand what love was.
Lou Ziling, shes underage. Are you underage too? Why couldnt he control himself!
Lou Ziling scolded himself for being stupid in his heart. He let go of Jing Xi, got into the drivers seat, and drove Jing Xi home.
Jing Xi didnt say anything along the way. She knew Lou Ziling well. She knew that Lou Ziling was really angry at this moment.
However, he was the one who hit her. What right did he have to be angry?
When they arrived atndscapepound, Jing Xi got out of the car in a Huff and left without looking back.
Lou Ziling looked at her back and felt as if her heart had been emptied.
He smiled bitterly and felt that he deserved this punishment.
If his heart had never been moved, then he and she might have been strangers by now, and there would be no more torture.
Lou Ziling took a deep breath and drove away.
Everything would pass.
The night faded and dawn arrived. Lou Ziling got up early in the morning and went to the airport to prepare for his business trip.
The development of Lous group had encountered an unprecedented difficulty. Not only had it lost the support of Jingsheng enterprise, but it had also lost arge number of customers because of the deterioration of its rtionship with Li Jing.
Due to the serious backlog of products, the rapid growth momentum of the Lou group had plummeted.
In July, they had already incurred losses.
In the VIP room of the airport, Lou Ziling received a call from Li Jing.
President Lou, I think youve already felt my power. How about it? do you want to consider working with me?
I wont consider it, Lou Ziling replied indifferently.
You cant be that petty, right? Are you still angry about what happenedst time?
Li Zhiughed happily and easily.You see, I didnt even me your girlfriend for blowing up my vi, so dont me me for giving you anesthesia. After all, youre not injured at all!
Ill make you pay for this. Youd better hide it well and dont let me find you!
Its easy to find me. As long as you agree to marry me, Ill appear in front of you immediately!
From what I know, your girlfriend seems to have taken a fancy to song Xin? Li Jings voice was seductive. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Lou Ziling, youve been dumped again!
So Im of no use to you anymore. You can find someone else to work with!
No, no one can rece your value! Ive changed my ns recently. As long as youre willing to fake A marriage with me, I can make the Lou family the number one family in a city!
Lou Ziling sneered,you want to bring down the Jing family? In your dreams!
My n is perfect. As long as youre willing to cooperate, Jing Xi will be the best Breakthrough! If you dont cooperate, the Lou group will go bankrupt soon. Are you really going to test my patience?
Li Jings voice became sharp. Lou Ziling could hear her madness, but he would never use Jing Xi as a bargaining chip.
He rejected Li Jing again, hung up the phone, and boarded the ne.
He had been on a business trip for more than half a month, but it had not been smooth.
Every time the coboration was almost done, the other party would suddenly change his mind.
In August, Lou Ziling flew back to A city. As soon as he got off the ne, he received a call from Li Jing.
Lou Ziling, are you still not going to consider my suggestion? Youre running around and working hard, but your little girlfriend is Living a Good Life! Song Xins recent scandal target is her. The two of them developed rapidly and often eat together!
Lou Ziling didnt say a word and hung up the phone.
He didnt want to hear Li Jings voice, and he didnt want to hear anything about Jing Xi.
He was afraid that he would not be able to resist looking for her.
Lou Ziling tried his best to convince himself that Jing Xi was just a child, a sister like tan Ruyi. He should not have any other thoughts about her.
When Lou Ziling got home, she didnt wash up or change her clothes. She justy on the bed and fell asleep.
Thepany was on the verge of copse, and he had not rested for dozens of hours.
In September, the capital chain of Lou Zilings group, which she had been trying so hard to maintain, suddenly broke. The losses continued to increase. Countless customers broke their contracts. In the Lous group building, everyones heart was covered with ayer of shadow.
Wu Shen stood in front of Lou Ziling and reported thetest financial situation.
He looked at Lou Zilings exhausted face and couldnt help but ask,President, we cant go on like this. Its obvious that the Li family is targeting us. If Miss Li has any requests, please agree to them! It wasnt easy for you to develop thepany to its current scale. You cant ruin all your hard work!
Lou Zilings face was pale and she coughed lightly.
If Li Jing had asked for something else, he might have agreed to it because of the current situation. However, her target was Jing Xi. Even if he had to destroy the entirepany, Lou Ziling would not agree to Li Jings request.
He worked hard to climb up thedder and wanted to be stronger. He didnt want to destroy anyone, but he wanted to protect Jing Xi and not let her be used again.
He would look down on himself if he were to climb up by stepping on Jing Xi.
Leave the report here, you can rest today!
Wu Shen had not taken a day off for two months in a row. Lou Ziling wanted him to take a day off.
Im fine, President. You should rest. You still havent recovered from your cold after such a long time. You should go to the hospital!
Lou Ziling nodded perfunctorily. After work, she didnt go to the hospital but went straight home.
He should only have a persistent low fever, and he should be fine after taking a few fever medicine.
Chapter 1544
Chapter 1544: Being exposed
Trantor: 549690339
She had not seen Lou Ziling for a long time. Jing Xi realized that Lou Ziling had broken up with her.
She was a little confused.
Why?
Because of song Xin?
Or mu Sen?
She didnt like the two of them!
Lous enterprise was getting worse and worse. Shouldnt he ask her for help and ask family Jing for help?
She was waiting for Lou Ziling toe to her. She was waiting for Lou Ziling to admit her mistake. She was waiting for him to ask for help.
However, Jing Xi had forgotten how proud and aloof Lou Ziling was. How could he abandon his dignity and beg his beloved to let her family support his career?
Lou Mingyang wanted to ask for help from family Jing, but he thought that his son had left family Jing and was too embarrassed to see Jing Yichen.
In the evening, song Xin personally drove to pick Jing Xi up from work.
In order to avoid being recognized, he wore a mask and a baseball cap, only revealing a pair of beautiful eyes.
Jing Xi got into his car and smiled.Even if you cover your head, your fans will still recognize you from your back.
He was too popr and had a huge number of fans. Two days ago, the photo of the two of them eating together had been taken, and then there were rumors flying around.
Jing Xi didnt care about it, but she was worried about song Xin and his image.
Song Xin pulled down his mask and also revealed a smile, Its fine even if you recognize me. Ive been a hot topic recently, and Ive been taking on so many advertisements. Most importantly, the rumor that Im gay has beenpletely denied. I really have to thank you for this!
His appearance was too beautiful, too delicate, and was always rumored to be gay. His sexual orientation was often questioned, and song Xin himself was having a headache over this matter.
You dont have to thank me. Its better if you dont have any scandals. Otherwise, your fans will cry.
Im going to get married sooner orter. Im already 27 years old and Ive never been in a rtionship before. Why dont you try it with me?
Song Xins tone was half-joking. His acting skills were so good that Jing Xi often couldnt tell if he was telling the truth or not.
As he was speaking, there were people taking pictures outside the car window.
He immediately pulled up his mask to cover his face, stepped on the elerator, and sped away.
However, the speed at which song Xinyao reached the headlines was faster than his car. He and Jing Xi hadnt even finished their meal when his scandal had already blown up the entertainment industry.
However, the reporters did not manage to capture his face.
The only clear photo on the news headline was Jing Xi s.
Song Xin only cared about protecting himself and had forgotten about Jing Xi.
And Jing Xi had no intention of hiding it. The reporters didnt know her at all and couldnt find any information about her, so they exposed her.
There were so manyizens, there should be someone who knew her, right? Wouldnt the girls identity be clear then?
Of course, there were people who knew Jing Xi, but none of them dared to reply to her online.
Lou Ziling sat at the table and had a simple dinner. Then she opened the news page on her phone and saw Jing Xis photo.
[National male God Song Xins rtionship exposed. Girlfriends identity is mysterious!]
The title was full of gimmicks and attracted peoples imagination and exploration.
Lou Ziling was so angry that she almost dropped the cup!
The anger triggered his coughing. He coughed for a while and drank half a bottle of cough syrup before he stopped.
Song Xin was in the entertainment industry. He had been in the industry for so long. Didnt he know how much trouble Jing Xi would cause if she was exposed?
Thements below the news were all scolding Jing Xi!
Lou Ziling subconsciously wanted to call Jing Xi and scold her for being so careless. However, the moment he dialed the number, he suddenly woke up and realized that he had not seen her for two months.
He canceled the call and turned off his phone. He bitterly took the fever medicine and slowly walked back to his room.
Perhaps Jing Xi also cared about being exposed?
If she really intended to be with song Xin, it would be exposed sooner orter.
Song Xin was a star-studded man. Wherever he went, there would be paparazzi taking photos of him. Even when he went abroad, he was often secretly photographed. As his girlfriend, it was impossible to not be exposed.
No matter how well a celebritys rtionship was hidden, it would always surface one day.
Lou Zilings heart was empty and lonely. She was already numb to the pain, but because of this news, the pain increased.
Lou Zilings body couldnt take the continuous low fever and he fell asleep.
After a long time, her phone rang. Lou Zilings eyes were heavy. She answered the phone with a splitting headache.Hello?
President Lou, such a big thing happened and you can still sleep? Your girlfriend has be someone elses girlfriend and the whole world knows about it. Arent you embarrassed?
Li Jings sharp voice entered Lou Zilings ears. She subconsciously moved her phone away from her.
His mind cleared up a little, but his voice was still hoarse from coughing. Shes not my girlfriend anymore. Even if you want to use her, Im of no value anymore.
Li Jing sighed.Youre so pitiful. She doesnt even know what youve done for Jing Xi. Shes still having fun with other men! Lou Ziling, shes already so cruel. Why dont you just cooperate with me? I promise that Jing Xi will be yours in the future, and the Jing familys money will also be yours!
Lou Ziling was silent for a long time before she said,Why didnt you look for song Xin to cooperate?
Him?
Li Jings tone was full of disdain.Hes just an actor. A scandal can throw him off his feet. A little dirty water and hell immediately fall from the altar and be a useless piece of trash!
Youre different. Youre smart and have good eyes. You can endure and dare to resist. Its easy for you to capture a womans heart. You just dont want to do it!
For example, as long as youre willing to bow down to Jing Xi and beg her, yourpany will be free from my control. Of course, if youre willing to beg me and marry me, Lous group will be full of vitality tomorrow.
Lou Ziling knew that Li Jing was very obsessed with Jing Rui and the entire Jing family. He was worried that Li Zhi would use song Xin to deal with Jing Xi, so he had asked her just now.
Since Li Jing had no intention of cooperating with song Xin, he was relieved.
Lou Ziling had nothing to talk to Li Jing about. The only reason he was still pretending to be nice to li Zhijing and answering her phone calls was to protect thepany.
She was a lunatic. If she didnt pick up the call, she would definitely get worse.
After hanging up the phone, Lou Ziling couldnt help but search for rted news. However, the photos of Jing Xi had basically disappeared.
The picture of song Xin wearing a mask and a hat was still there. There was also a lot of news about his mysterious girlfriend, but there was no picture of Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling closed her eyes! The Jing family had made their move!
Chapter 1545
Chapter 1545: I thought you liked me too
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Yichen had done a perfect job in protecting Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling was once again shocked by the Jing familys power.
Yes, this was the power! The power to protect his family and loved ones!
He knew that Jing Yichen would definitely get involved in this matter, and he had gotten the news earlier than anyone else.
Lou Ziling was lying on the bed. Her face was pale and she clenched her fists tightly.
He had been getting closer and closer to that power, but he had fallen for Jing Xi, and his career had suffered an unprecedented blow.
The trial in front of him would be extremely difficult.
In the morning, Lou Ziling coughed as she drove to work.
There was an important meeting and a resolution to be made today, so he had to attend.
However, what he didnt know was that Li Jing not only had her eyes on him, but she had also nned to make a move on song Xin.
Compared to Lou Ziling, song Xin was easier to control. If Li Jing wanted to defeat family Jing, she couldnt just put all her chips on Lou Ziling. She had buried countless pawns in her n.
However, Lou Ziling was the most useful one so far.
Li Jing liked Jing Rui and Lou Zilings type, not the delicate type like song Xin. So she did not bribe song Xin personally, but let her subordinates do it.
However, her luck was really too bad. The capable general she sent out actually fell in love with song Xin!
That was why Li Jing had to call Lou Ziling in the middle of the night when there was no progress on song Xins side. She deliberately provoked him and wanted him to get Jing Xi back.
He didnt expect Lou Ziling to not be fooled at all!
In order to avoid the limelight, song Xin had not left his house for three days.
Jing Xi went out as usual, but she encountered all kinds of trouble.
Jing Yichen had the ability to withdraw all kinds of news and ask the media to take back Jing Xis photos, but many people had taken screenshots of the previous news and saved Jing Xis photos, so Jing Xi would be easily recognized by song Xins fans.
In the afternoon, Jing Xi was stuck in Luo Feiyangs office. She couldnt get out at all.
She was a little frustrated and depressed. Those fans were too scary. Not only did they throw rotten eggs and vegetable leaves at her, but someone even poured sulfuric acid on her!
Today, Jing Xi finally understood why Lou Ziling was willing to expose his other girlfriends but not her.
She wasnt afraid of rumors, but reality often drove people crazy.
If family Jing hadnt been powerful enough to erase her photo in time, there would have been thousands of fans.
Jing Xi had no choice but to call song Xin.Song Xin, why dont you hold a press conference or something to rify things!
Xixi, mypany has already released a statement saying that were just ordinary friends.
But it doesnt seem to work. Im in thepany and there are a lot of your fans here. Theyre all girls. If I get someone to beat them up, will it affect your image?
Song Xin quickly said,don t, don t, don t. Dont hurt them! They only like me, they dont have any ill intentions towards you!
No malicious intent?
Why would she pour sulfuric acid on him if she didnt have any ill intentions?
If it wasnt for her strong body and quick reaction, she would have been disfigured by now!
Jing Xis tone was a little cold.Then release another statement! If it doesnt work out, well hold a press conference immediately to rify our rtionship! Why should I bear all this!
Song Xin was silent. After a long while, he said in a low voice,Xixi, please consider what I saidst time!
What is it?
Ive Never Been in Love Before. Do you want to try it out with me?
Jing Xi was stunned for a moment. Last time, she thought song Xin was just saying it casually. She didnt expect him to be serious!
No, thats not right. He might not be serious!
It could also be a publicity stunt!
He had dominated the headlines of the entertainment news for three consecutive days!
Your statement was so ambiguous. Youre deliberately misleading the public, right? Are you not trying to rify our rtionship at all?
Hearing Jing Xis anger, song Xin immediatelyforted her,No, no, why would I deliberately mislead my fans? I just really like you, and I thought you liked me too, so
I dont like you, I have a boyfriend! Didnt you see it before?
Didnt you break up with him? Havent we been dating for the past two months? Xixi, dont be like this. My fans might be a little impulsive. Cant you be more tolerant? They just cant ept the fact that I have a girlfriend all of a sudden. Its fine to give them some buffer time!
Jing Xi was dumbfounded. When did she start dating song Xin?
Is having a meal together a dating thing?
Somewhere in her heart, she was shocked. Lou Ziling wouldnt think the same, would she?
Now that the news was all over the ce, Lou Ziling must have seen it!
This is great, I cant exin it!
She turned around and asked Luo Feiyang,Everyone thinks that Im dating song Xin?
Isnt it?Luo Feiyang was confused.
Of course not! Jing Xi stomped her foot in anger.
Luo Feiyangs eyes lit up,so youre single now? I can continue to pursue you? Hahaha, youve kicked Lou Ziling out, song Xin is out, and I dont know where Ji moxuan is. I have the best chance now!
Jing Xi ignored Luo Feiyangs nonsense. She didnt see that Luo Feiyang liked her. Now, he was ying with tan Ruyi all day long. If tan Ruyi didnt send him a message, he would be very irritable.
She called her bodyguards, and they took care of the fans in a few minutes.
Especially the one who poured sulfuric acid on her. Jing Xi had specifically told her to educate her well!
At first, she was still concerned about song Xins reputation and was afraid that she would be criticized for hitting his fans. Now that song Xinpletely ignored her, all of Jing Xis worries disappeared!
Crazed demons? Who could be crazier than her!
Jing Xi didnt go to work either. She left thepany to Luo Feiyang and asked the driver to take her to Lous group.
The person who received Jing Xi was Wu Shen.
Miss Jing, President Lou is out for business discussion. Hes not in the office now. Please go back.
Wu Shen was angry at Jing Xi, but he didnt dare to say anything. He knew Jing Xis background and the power of the Jing family. He also knew that the Lou groups current predicament was all because Lou Ziling wanted to protect Jing Xi.
He was Lou Zilings right-hand man. He had witnessed the rise of thepany. He knew how much Lou Ziling had sacrificed for thepany.
He felt that Lou Zilings choice was not worth it.
Not here? Then Ill go to his office and wait for him to return! If you donte back, Ille and wait here every day. I dont believe I cant wait!
Wu Shen didnt stop her and let her go to Lou Zilings office. Anyway, Lou Ziling had gone out to discuss business.
Chapter 1546
Chapter 1546: You dont like it anymore?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi went to Lou Zilings office. She did not see him, but she found a pile of medicine in his drawer.
Cold, cough, fever, anti-inmmatory
Hes sick?
Hasnt he always been in good health? How could she be sick?
Jing Xi waited in the office until it was dark, but Lou Ziling was still nowhere to be seen. She suspected that Lou Ziling was deliberately avoiding her. She stomped her feet and left Lous group.
In the dead of night, Lou Ziling returned to his small vi. As soon as he opened the door, he saw that the lights in the living room were on. Jing Xi was sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
He was slightly stunned, thinking that he was hallucinating because of the fever.
However, when he saw Jing Xi standing up and walking toward him, Lou Ziling knew that it was not an illusion. She had really appeared in front of him.
It had only been two months since theyst met, but she seemed to have matured a lot. The well-cut dress entuated her slender figure and her legs were straight and long.
Her long hair was tied up, revealing an exquisite face with a youthful aura.
Lou Ziling, what do you mean? you want to break up with me? You think its cool to disappear for two months just because youve helped me and song Xin?
His words were as sharp as ever and went straight to the point.
Lou Zilings face was pale and her voice was hoarse.Get out!
The moment he opened his mouth, he reeked of alcohol. Jing Xi could not help but lean closer to him, lowered her head, and sniffed him. She frowned.You drank? Smoking? When did you learn to smoke?
Lou Ziling was a very self-disciplined person. His family was strict, so he never smoked or drank.
Fortunately, he didnt have any womans perfume on him. Otherwise, Jing Xi would have suspected that he had gone out to fool around.
You dont look well, are you sick? When I went to your office today, I saw a lot of cold medicine in your drawer. You cant drink alcohol after taking the medicine!
Regarding song Xins matter, I can exin it to you. Dont believe those news, theyre all rumors!
It didnt matter to Lou Ziling whether it was a rumor or not. What was important was that Jing Xi really got along well with song Xin.
Even if he disappeared from her life for dozens of days, or even hundreds of days, Jing Xi would still be happy. Countless people woulde into her life and not let her life be boring.
He was dispensable.
Lou Ziling avoided Jing Xi and went upstairs to rest with her briefcase.
He had drunk a little too much that night, and he had a fever and a splitting headache. But fortunately, he had finally seeded in a project, and thepany could hold on for a while.
Shut up! Jing Xi pulled him back.Dont run away!
Lou Ziling pulled her arm away from Jing Xi to avoid touching her.
He had a serious mental mysophobia and only liked to be loyal to one person.
He wasnt sure if song Xin had touched Jing Xi, but he knew that they often ate together. As long as he thought about the possibility of them being intimate, he couldnt stand it.
If Jing Xi was really in love with song Xin, Lou Ziling would never allow himself to be a third party. He would never be ambiguous with Jing Xi again.
In life, even if one had nothing, one still had to have dignity.
Falling into the hands of a 17-year-old girl already made the 24-year-old Lou Ziling feel helpless. He had to live like a human!
Im not running away. Its your right to choose who youre dating. But itste at night, and its inappropriate for a girl toe to my house alone. Besides, youre in the limelight now, so its better for you to keep a low profile.
Lou Ziling said slowly. His tone was cold and emotionless, as if he was just a bystander.
Youre really angry?
Jing Xis eyes turned red.Thats just the paparazzi and entertainment reporters making groundless usations. Song Xin and I are just ordinary friends. Its just that he has acted in good dramas and created good characters. I have no feelings for him!
Lou Ziling nodded, her eyes indifferent.Go home. You dont have toe again. Youre still underage. Remember to protect yourself.
After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked up the stairs.
Jing Xi stood still for half a minute before she realized what Lou Ziling was trying to say. He was reminding her that she was still young and that she should not have sex with song Xin.
She was so angry that her face turned red and white. What kind of person did Lou Ziling take her for? Was she that casual?
There was nothing going on between her and song Xin!
They didnt even hold hands!
No wonder he didnt let her touch him just now. It was because he despised her!
Jing Xi caught up with Lou Ziling and went straight into his room.
Lou Ziling didnt change her clothes. She just took off her suit jacket andy on the bed in her pants and shirt. She closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.
He did not open his eyes when Jing Xi came in, as if she did not exist.
Lou Ziling, get up! Lets make things clear. Its fine if others misunderstand me, but why dont you believe me?
Didnt you have so many girlfriends in the past? I cant even have a friend of the opposite sex? Cant I just chase a star?
Do you not like me anymore? You
Just as Jing Xi was about to touch Lou Zilings face, Lou Ziling suddenly opened his eyes and said coldly,Yes! Are you satisfied? Get out!
Jing Xi was startled by him. She retracted her hand and looked at him in a daze.
You dont like it anymore?
So fast?
Lou Ziling closed her eyes again and turned around so that her back was facing Jing Xi.
He had actually missed her for a long time. He thought about her almost every day. He thought about what she did today, what she ate, who she was with, whether she was happy or not, whether she was bullied or she went to bully others again.
However, it was of no use. He was only torturing himself.
Her life was wonderful and happy, and her dependence on him was rapidly decreasing until itpletely disappeared.
This was good. This meant that she was growing up and no longer the little girl who always pestered him in the past!
Lou Ziling didnt know how much time had passed, but the room was quiet. When she turned around, Jing Xi had already left.
He felt terrible, but also relieved. Jing Xi had given up on him, which meant that the possibility of Li Jing hurting her had decreased.
The high fever and the alcohol made Lou Ziling fall into a deep sleep. He did not wake up until the next morning.
The rm and phone rang beside his pillow, but Lou Ziling couldnt hear it.
Wu Shen called Lou Ziling more than ten times, but he still could not get in touch with him. He climbed over the wall and entered Lou Zilings Vi. Then, he searched room by room.
When he saw Lou Zilings face, he was shocked.
His face waspletely red, and his body temperature was frighteningly hot.
Wu Shen immediately sent him to the hospital, and it took a long time for his condition to stabilize.
Fortunately, Lou Zilings body was in good condition. She woke up very quickly after her fever went down.
Seeing the surroundings and Wu Shen who was taking care of him, Lou Ziling quickly understood what was going on.
Lou Ziling didnt take her illness to heart. The first thing she said when she woke up was,Wu Shen, the jiangchao group has signed a contract with ourpany. Please confirm it with director Jiang to avoid any idents.

Trantor: 549690339
Wu Shen forced a smile.President, President Jiang called you. You were unconscious the whole time. I picked up the phone and he said He canpensate us for the breach of contract, but he will not work with us anymore.
Lou Zilings eyes turned cold.
Li Jing again!
This woman was haunting him, vicious, and powerful. Did he have to get rid of this woman first if he wanted to be powerful?
Lou Ziling had never killed anyone. He wasnt sure if he should stain his hands with blood for a woman like her.
But if he didnt get rid of Li Jing, everything he had would be destroyed!
Lou Zilings face was gloomy. He didnt stay in the hospital. He left immediately after the infusion.
He was so focused on thepany that he didnt notice a piece of Jade slip out of his pocket.
The nurse came to clean up the ward and picked up this piece of Jade.
She took the Jade and looked at it for a while. Although the cutting skills were poor, the Jade was of excellent quality. She felt that it must be worth a lot of money. Just as she was about to hand it to the head nurse, a girl rushed in. When she saw the Jade in her hand, she was stunned and then snatched it away.
Miss, this Jade belongs to a patient. You should
Whats the patients name?Jing Xi interrupted her.
Lou Ziling. The nurse lowered her head and flipped through the form.
As expected, it was him!
Jing Xi had been worried about Lou Zilings health. She called him early in the morning, but he didnt answer. She called Wu Shen and found out that Lou Ziling was in the hospital.
Jing Xi held the Jade Guanyin in her hand tightly and asked anxiously,Whats wrong with him? What illness did she have? Where is he?
He has a high fever and is unconscious. He left as soon as he woke up and refused to listen to any advice. Are you his friend?
My girlfriend! Jing Xi nodded.
Girlfriend?
The nurse was a little confused. She didnt look like her. Although the youngdy in front of her looked mature, her face was too young. She didnt look old at first nce.
She was still hesitating about whether she should take the Jade back and wait for Lou Ziling to get it when the door was pushed open again. Lou Ziling had returned.
The nurse heaved a sigh of relief and said,Sir, youre back to look for the Jade, right? Its in your girlfriends hands!
Lou Ziling nodded indifferently.Alright. You can leave now.
The nurse left reluctantly. It was rare for her to meet such a handsome patient, and she had not seen enough of him!
The nurse left, leaving only Lou Ziling and Jing Xi in the ward.
Lou Ziling reached out his hand to Jing Xi.
Didnt I throw this Jade away? Why are you still here?
Jing Xi clearly remembered that she had thought the Jade was ugly and had thrown it out of the window of Lou Zilings house.
He had actually picked it up again!
And it seemed that he had been carrying it with him all the time!
He must have left the hospital and realized that the Jade Guanyin was missing, so he came back to look for it. It could be seen that he valued this Jade very much.
Yes, you threw it away, so its mine now. Give it to me!
I thought you didnt like me anymore? why did you keep the gift I gave you?
Lou Ziling stared at her for a while and finally said,Alright then, I wont keep it anymore. Ill return it to its owner.
After he finished speaking, he turned around without any hesitation and strode away.
Jing Xi stomped her foot in anger. Why was this man getting more and more impatient? Cant you say something nice?
She chased after Lou Ziling anxiously, but she saw that Lou Ziling had already gotten into the car and left.
Jing Xi stood there, holding the Jade Guanyin, which still seemed to be warm from Lou Zilings body. Her heart was empty.
When she threw the Jade away, he didnt stop her or say anything, but he picked it up.
He should like her!
Otherwise, why would she carry this Jade Guanyin with her all the time?
But now, he didnt want this piece of Jade anymore.
Had he decided to give up on her?
As Jing Xi was feeling ufortable, she suddenly heard someone whispering behind her,
Is she the one who was exposed on the inte? Song Xins mysterious girlfriend? Dont make a mistake
I cant be wrong! Shes already in bed with Prince Charming song, Ill recognize her even if she turns into ashes!
Alright, lets do it together and disfigure her!
Yes, disfigured. That way, God Song wont like her anymore!
Jing Xi turned around and saw eight or nine girls staring at her with hatred in their eyes. They were holding knives and small stones in their hands, and some were holding transparent ss bottles.
Acid again!
Song Xins female fans were teaching each other how to disfigure? He loved acid so much!
Jing Xi was in a bad mood. Not only had she lost Lou Ziling, but she had also caused a lot of trouble. Every day, she would be followed and scolded by some boring women.
No one knew who took the lead, but little stones were thrown at Jing Xi like crazy. Someone even rushed up with a knife, trying to cut her face, and those with sulfuric acid were waiting for the opportunity to pour it on her face.
Jing Xi was furious. She kicked the two men who were holding the acid out of the room.
The acid sttered and dripped onto their faces. The two girls immediately screamed,Help! The Vixen is going to ruin our faces!
No one cared about the two of them. Theirpanions were kicked to the ground one after another by Jing Xi. In a short while, they were all lying on the ground and wailing.
Jing Xi was also a little embarrassed. There were too many small stones thrown at her, and she couldnt dodge them. Her face and hands were covered in blood.
She was so angry that her face turned white and she said angrily,I dont have any rtionship with song Xin, are you all here to seek death? If they dare toe again, I wont let a single one of them off!
Jing Xi touched the wound on her face and turned around angrily. She went back to the hospital and asked mu Sen to treat her wound.
Mu Sen had juste out of the operating room and returned to the office to see that Jing Xi was injured. He was shocked and said,Someone dared to hurt you? Dont you want to live?
Jing Xi lowered her head and said bitterly,Its song Xins fans
Mu Sen put on a pair of gloves and cleaned Jing Xis wound with a cotton ball.His fans are indeed crazy. You should keep a low profile in your rtionship with him in case you get attacked.
Jing Xi stood up and said loudly,Brother mu, Im not in a rtionship with song Xin! You must believe me!
Mu Sen patted her helplessly.I believe you, I believe you. Sit down, Ill apply the medicine for you. Dont move.
His tone was obviously coaxing a child. Jing Xi sat back in her chair in distress and sighed.AI, why dont you believe me? I just think that hes pretty good at acting and hes very pretty. Weve only had a few meals together.
Mu Senughed.Its no big deal that you like him. He has tens of millions of fans. Youre just one of them.
Youre still young, so youll have the passion to chase stars. When you grow up and mature, you wont have it anymore! Thats how everyones been through it, and its normal to like this one today and that one tomorrow!
Jing Xi didnt like it when people called her young. She had always felt that she was different from her peers and that she was quite mature.
But now, she realized that perhaps in the eyes of others, her actions had always been like a child!
Was this the main reason why Lou Ziling gave up?
Chapter 1548
Chapter 1548: The missing Lou Ziling
Trantor: 549690339
After leaving the hospital, Jing Xi went to look for song Xin.
Song Xin saw the band-aids on her face and hands and asked with concern, Youre injured? If youre not careful, you wont look good with a scar on your face.
If it was Lou Ziling, he would never say such a thing. He would only ask,Who hurt you?!
After that, he would help her deal with the culprit.
He probably didnt care about the scars on his face.
Jing Xis heart ached, and she said,It was your fan who threw stones at me and cut me. Im here to ask you forpensation.
Fan? Thats impossible, theyre all kind and understanding girls, how could they hurt you!
Jing Xis eyes were burning with anger. Release a statement immediately and rify our rtionship! I dont want to be the scapegoat anymore!
Xixi, dont be angry. I didnt say that you were lying. Im saying that you might have misunderstood. Maybe the people who threw the stones at you werent my fans. Could it be that youve provoked someone, and theyre here to take revenge on you?
Looking at song Xins perfectly handsome face, Jing Xi suddenly felt like punching him.
Of course, she had done the same!
Song Xin was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground by her punch. He didnte back to his senses for a long time.
He thought that he had been particrly warm and gentle with his words, and he had not said a single bad thing about Jing Xi, but in the end, he had been beaten up?
Just as song Xin was about to stand up, Jing Xi took the coffee pot next to him and poured all the coffee on him.
The coffee was still hot, so hot that song Xin immediately screamed.
His assistant and manager came to see him, but Jing Xi kicked them out.
You didnt listen to me when I was talking, forcing me to reveal my true form! You cant be thinking that my title of little witch is for nothing, right? You want to use me to create hype? Haha, are you the brainless one or is your manager the brainless one?
Jing Xi rudely took off song Xins clothes, leaving him only his underwear. She turned a deaf ear to song Xins begging and cursing.
Jing Xi looked around and couldnt find a suitable rope, so she pulled down the curtains in the room.
She took out a de as thin as a cicadas wing from somewhere and tore the curtain into pieces. Then, she tied song Xin up, pulled one end of the rope, and walked out at a moderate pace.
Song Xin was scared out of his wits. If he was dragged out by Jing Xi like this, he would never be able to survive in the entertainment industry again!
Jing Xi, let go of me! Ill immediately release a statement to rify our rtionship! This has nothing to do with me, its all hyped up by the media!
Song Xins manager and assistant all turned pale with fright. They pounced over in anger and fear, wanting to save song Xin.
Jing Xi beat the two of them up and tied them to song Xin.The two of you definitely have a part to y in creating this hype. Ill kidnap both of you and send you to the TV station. The four of us will do a live broadcast together and exin my rtionship with song Xin!
The three of them were tied up tightly and couldnt break free no matter what. Jing Xi was dragging them on the ground, and her skin was hurting from the scratches.
No, no, no, its my fault, its all my fault! Miss Jing, please let song Xin go. I arranged everything, it had nothing to do with him! Youre going to ruin his life like this!
The manager was crying so hard that she immediately took all the me.
The most important thing now is to protect song Xin!
She and song Xin originally thought that Jing Xi liked song Xin and that they could use Jing Xis identity to create some hype. As long as song Xin did not admit that he had been in a rtionship, it would be fine.
He didnt expect Jing Xi to be so rough!
Who would be so reckless?
Song Xin was an artiste under Star Media, and he was the pir of thepany. If his image was destroyed, it would be a huge blow to Star Media, and even affect the other artistes under thepany. This entertainmentpany belonged to Jing Xis family. Did she not care at all?
His manager and assistant were both pleading with him. Song Xin also promised that he would definitely clear up all the misunderstandings.
Jing Xi finally agreed not to go to the TV station for the live broadcast.
Since the three of you are so sincere, Ill be soft-hearted this time!
The three of them heaved a sigh of relief, but when they found out about Jing Xis so-called soft-heartedness, they almost vomited blood and died!
She hung the three of them upside down on the big tree outside!
Hmm, not bad. The curtains you bought are very sturdy. They didnt break even after hanging three people!
After Jing Xi hung up, she patted the dust off her hands and walked away with a face full of band-aids.
That afternoon, all the entertainment headlines were dominated by song Xin.
The picture and video of him hanging upside down on a tree while wearing only a pair of underwear went viral on the inte. What was even more shocking was that song Xin even posted a picture of himself hanging upside down on his own social media tform! She used herself of her crimes with tears in her eyes and described herself as a scumbag!
At this moment, song Xin had already been rescued and returned to the hotel he was staying in. He curled up on the bed and cursed while trembling,Devil! A witch! Crazy! Youre crazy!
His social media ount and secrets had already been hacked, and he couldnt log in at all. He could only watch helplessly as all kinds of explosive disclosures were released!
There was no doubt that it was Jing Xis doing!
If he had known that this would happen, he would not have allowed the paparazzi to take photos of him and Jing Xi having dinner!
He should have known that the Jing family was not to be trifled with when Jing Xis photo was posted on the inte and then deleted.
But he saw Jing Xis innocent and kind appearance and felt that he could take advantage of her love for him to bring his career to an unprecedented height.
He didnt want to be confined to the small scope of idol dramas. He wanted to go to the big screen, to the international scene, to get more resources, and to take more endorsements.
He had thought that Jing Xis ruthlessness and madness were just rumors!
Jing Xi was very good at tormenting people. In fact, she had given song Xin a way out. Song Xin was only famous in China. Who would know him abroad?
He didntck money, so it was easy for him to live a carefree life.
However, it would be difficult to be a star again.
However, Jing Xi did not feel happy after punishing song Xin, because she could not find Lou Ziling.
Lous group was declining at an astonishing speed. No matter when Jing Xi went, Lou Ziling would never be there.
Wu Shens reply was always,the president is on a business trip!
Jing Xi had been going to Lous group for a month, but Lou Ziling was on a business trip!
After another month, when Jing Xi went to Lou Zilings Vi for the umpteenth time to find him, she found that the owner of the vi had changed!
After asking around, she found out that he had sold his vi and car a month ago.
Soon, even the big vi of the Lou family was sold. No one knew where the Lou Mingyang couple moved to.
Chapter 1549
Chapter 1549: Li Xiao
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi had no idea where to find Lou Ziling.
She looked for Luo Feiyang and asked,isnt your sister-inw Lou ruofei? Help me find out where her family is!
My sister-inw has already brought her parents to United States! My sister-inw is pregnant. A few days ago, my aunt and her mother even apanied her to her prenatal examination!
What about Lou Ziling?
I dont know. I think Uncle Lou has cut off all father-son ties with Lou Ziling!
Cut off our father-son rtionship? Jing Xi was shocked and angry. Why?
Maybe its because he didnt manage thepany well? My dad and brother didnt care about me after I destroyed my familys small branchpany. They left me to fend for myself. Lou Ziling destroyed the entirepany and lost tens of billions of Yuan. It would be a wonder if his dad would acknowledge him!
When Luo Feiyang thought about how he had been severely criticized and rejected when he asked his family for help, he felt that he was not his biological son. If he were to destroy the entire Luo family corporation, he would definitely be hung up and beaten by his brother!
It was normal for Lou Mingyang and Lou Ziling to cut off their father-son rtionship!
Not every father could clean up Jing Xis mess like Jing Yichen did and spend a huge amount of money to get rid of all the photos and rumors about her.
On New Years Eve, the once-popr Lou group officially dered bankruptcy.
Lou Ziling, who was promoted as the role model of the young people in A city, had to bear a huge debt.
Lou Zilings photos and rted news were taken down from the governments publicity websites. The name Lou Ziling never appeared in financial magazines and newspapers again.
All of the Lou familys businesses in city A were taken over by others one after another.
It was as if the Lou family hadpletely disappeared from A city overnight.
The rise and fall of a family was a verymon thing in A city. Moreover, the Lou family was not a big family. Compared with the Yang family, the thirdrgest family in A city, which had been exterminated, the disappearance of the Lou family was not surprising.
The Lou familys Foundation was too shallow. Even if Lou Ziling was a genius, she would not be able to survive the storm.
He had offended both the Jing n and the Li n, so his destruction was inevitable.
The new year was very lively. Luo Feiyang had returned to the United States Jing Xi called him every day, but there was no news from Lou Ziling.
Lou Zilings phone had been turned off the whole time. All the messages that Jing Xi had sent him were like rocks falling into the sea. There was no response.
She was 18 years old. She was an adult, but Lou Ziling was gone.
Spring left and autumn came. Time passed quickly.
Two years had passed, and Lou Ziling hadpletely disappeared from Jing Xis life.
The ugly Jade Guanyin carved by Jing Xi herself disappeared with Lou Ziling.
She didnt know if it was because she had lost it when she beat up song Xins fans outside the hospital that day, or if it was because she had lost it when she went to deal with song Xin. It was only after she returned home that she realized that the piece of Jade was missing.
It was as if everything about him had never existed. It was as if it was just an unreal dream that Jing Xi had when she was young.
It waste autumn, and the autumn rain was endless. Dark clouds covered the sky for several days, making it hard for people to breathe.
Jing Xi stood on the balcony of a small vi, quietly watching the rain outside.
She had bought Lou Zilings small vi from the owner at a high price. Everything in the vi had not changed. It still maintained Lou Zilings simple ck and white style. This was the only thing she could keep.
She was on her period today, so her lower abdomen was slightly swollen and painful, and her face was slightly pale.
She recalled the awkwardness she felt when she first had her period.
Lou Ziling thought that she was injured and carried her up by the waist. In the end, her blood stained his camouge uniform.
At that time, she felt a stomachache and her body was weak. She thought she was poisoned and argued with Lou Ziling for a long time.
Later on, Lou Ziling had to help her get the sanitary pads from other girls.
That day, the rain was as heavy as today s.
However, it didnt seem to be as cold as todays rain. She felt a chill from her feet to her heart.
She remembered that when she stood on the balcony with Lou Ziling, she had seen beautiful scenery. Why were there only fallen leaves and branches in front of her?
A melodious ringtone interrupted Jing Xis thoughts.
She turned around, walked back to the bedroom, and picked up the phone. Luo Feiyangs voice was as loud as ever,Xixi, Ive just received a shocking secret. Do you want to hear it? Hahaha, I called you as soon as I could. Come and have a meal with me when youre free!
Jing Xis expression was calm, and her tone was indifferent.Im not free, keep the secret for yourself!
She was about to hang up when Luo Feiyang, who was obviously familiar with her style, quickly said,Wait, dont hang up. Its a big secret about Li Jing!
Li Jing?
Jing Xis eyes dimmed. She thought it would be about Lou Ziling.
She wasnt interested in Li Jings secrets. Besides, who else knew more about Li Jing than she did?
No one knew that Li Jing used to be a powerful female killer, and no one knew that the head of the Li family, Li Wu, was just a substitute in disguise. The real Li Wu used to be Andrew, the ruler of the world of killers, and he was being held captive by Jing Rui.
Jing Xi lost all interest and said,What secret? Tell me about it
Haha, Im afraid Li Jing is finished!
Jing Xi didnt think that Li Zhi would be finished. Her ability and schemes were iparable. She asked casually,Why?
Hasnt she not appeared for a long time? Do you know why? Hahaha, its because theres an internal fight in her family!
Internal strife?
Li Jing was the only one left in the Li family. Who was she going to fight? Fighting against oneself? Was he suffering from schizophrenia?
Yup! Internal strife! Didnt she kill all her brothers and sisters before? but one of them was still alive! Her half-brother, Li Xiao, hade back alive! Hes here to take revenge on Li Jing!
Jing Xis expression finally became serious. There was still someone alive in the Li family?
No way. With Li Jings personality, she would definitely cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. How could she have left behind such a big hidden danger?
Are you sure?
Im sure! I eavesdropped on my dad and uncles conversation, and they both think that Li Xiao has a higher chance of winning. Theyre nning to get on Li Xiaos good side in advance. Sending charcoal in the snow will definitely be more effective than adding flowers to a brocade!
Could Li Xiao beat Li Jing?
Then Li Jing wouldnt have been able to kill Li Xiao and her brothers and sisters all by herself!
I dont think its a good idea for your family to be in such a hurry to express their goodwill. Your family doesnt need the Li familys help anyway. If Li Xiao loses, youll offend Li Jing for nothing.
No, he won T. Li Xiao has a lot of supporters and hes a ruthless character. From what my father said, hes very smart. Otherwise, he wouldnt have survived!
Luo Feiyang seemed to be very excited, as if he could get a share of the money if he took down Li Jing.
But Jing Xi was murmuring in her heart, Li Xiao, Li Xiao
She felt that something was wrong.

The rain had stopped the next day.
The sun shone on the earth, bringing a hint of warmth to the coldte autumn.
Jing Xi drove to Luo Feiyangspany in a ck Jaguar.
Jing Xi had bought this car from someone else. She suspected that it was the one that Lou Ziling had sold, so she bought it.
The car was new, and it was very good in all aspects. However, it was because it was so new that Jing Xi could not tell if it was Lou Zilings car.
However, there was nothing wrong with Lou Ziling liking this car.
In the office, Luo Feiyang was already waiting for Jing Xi. When he saw her, he went up to Jing Xi and gave her a hug. He said in high spirits,I flew all the way from North America overnight for you!
I dont think youd be so eager for me. Jing Xi pushed him away.Its probably for some other beauty.
Who is it? Tan Ruyi? She was beautiful? Is there anyone uglier than her?
I didnt say who it was. Youre the one who automatically assumed it was her.
Ruyi is getting prettier and prettier. I heard that she has a lot of suitors in University. You have so manypetitors. Youd better do well!
Oh, dont misunderstand, Xixi. Ive only loved you all this time! Tan Ruyi is a thief. She stole my diamond and hasnt returned it yet!
Yes, she must have stolen something else.
What? Luo Feiyang was stunned. Howe I didnt know about this? Shes a repeat offender?
Your most important things have been stolen, and you dont even know?
Jing Xi pointed at Luo Feiyangs chest.Your heart.
Luo Feiyang was a little flustered.Hey, hey, hey. You dont have any evidence. Dont talk nonsense. If she hears this, shell definitely misunderstand! Ill lose face then!
When you like someone, you cant hide your thoughts and actions.
Luo Feiyang might not have realized it himself, but Jing Xi, as a bystander, saw it very clearly.
She didnt say much. With Luo Feiyangs personality, once he realized that he liked someone, he would chase after them without a care.
The main problem now was that tan Ruyi didnt have much feelings for him. She always avoided him when she saw him, like she was avoiding the gue.
Okay, I wont talk about it anymore. I want to know more about Li Jing and her brother, Li Xiao.
Haha, youre finally interested in this? My family is rted to the Li family. Li Xiao, he | Mom is the cousin of my great-aunts cousins distant nephew!
What kind of messy rtionship was this?
Li Xiaos mother is still alive? Jing Xi frowned.
How could I? Im long dead! Its said that Li Zhi killed him, so Li Xiao came back to take revenge!
Jing Xi nodded. She had also heard from Jing Rui that Li Xiaos mother was dead.
When did Li Xiao return to the Li family?
Well, Im not sure about that. Its been at least half a year. Li Jing hasnt been out for half a year. My father said that she was afraid that it wouldnt be safe for her to be out. She might be assassinated by Li Xiaos men!
Luo Feiyang saw Jing Xi sitting on the sofa and quickly followed her. He whispered,You might not know this, but I heard that Li Xiao is involved with an assassin organization. He has arge group of top assassins around him, and theyve been hiding to take Li Jings life! If Li Jing dies, Li Xiao will be able to take revenge and have all the family property!
Jing Xi almost sneered. An assassin organization?
The top leader of the killer organization was Jing Rui!
However, it was also possible that Li Xiao had hired some assassins at a high price.
She had to ask Jing Rui about it when she got back.
Jing Xi suppressed her doubts and asked,Have you seen this Li Xiao before?
Luo Feiyang shook his head.Of course not. Hes even more careful than Li Jing. Hes afraid that Li Zhi will harm him again. He doesnt want to see anyone. If theres anything, hell pass it on to his subordinates.
Then you go see him and take me with you.
Ah?
Why are you going to see him? Luo Feiyang asked in surprise. He had a serious case of persecutory delusion, so it was better not to go! Moreover, this matter is still a secret. Many people dont know of his existence, and everyone thinks hes dead!
Didnt you say that sending charcoal in the snow is better than adding flowers to a brocade? so I want to send charcoal.
But you also advised me not to go there. If the Luo family doesnt need the Li familys support, then the Jing family doesnt need it either!
But I do! Jing Xi said as she stood up and walked out. Think of a way to meet your rtives. Theres no need to be so nervous.
Luo Feiyang looked at her cold back and didnt know what to say.
Sigh, Jing Xi was bing more and more like the Jing family. Cold, indifferent, and so intelligent that no one couldpare to her.
Tan Ruyi was still cuter!
They were both in their twenties, but Jing Xi was unfathomable, while tan Ruyi was like a pool of clear water. One could see through her at a nce and y with her at will. She was very interesting.
Thinking of tan Ruyi, Luo Feiyangs lips curved up. He took out his phone and called tan Ruyi without thinking.
He called twice, but no one picked up. Luo Feiyang didnt give up and kept calling.
On the tenth time, the call finally connected.
Tan Ruyi, why didnt you pick up the phone? Are you looking for death? Im back in A city. You have to treat me to lunch. I want to eat the most expensive food!
Tan Ruyis low voice came from the phone.Are you crazy? Im in ss, stop fighting!
You have to promise to treat me to a meal. Otherwise, Ill keep calling you, every day!
I dont have any money!
Isnt my diamond ring still with you? If you sell it, you can treat me to a lifetime of food!
I wont be fooled! If I sell it, youll scold me for being greedy. Im in ss, so I wont talk to you anymore!
Okay, Ill pick you up at University of X in the afternoon.
Tan Ruyi was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Dont bother me anymore, or Ill block you!
She hung up the phone angrily and looked at the teacher guiltily. Then, she obediently took notes.
Pan Yan, her ssmate and roommate, poked her arm and asked in a low voice,Ruyi, your boyfriend called you again, right? Im so envious! Youre calling me every day, even if its an overseas call, arent you afraid of wasting money?
Tan Ruyis face turned red.Don t, dont Dont talk nonsense. Hes not a boyfriend. Hes just a normal friend! No, no, no, were not friends. I just owe him something, and hes been asking me for it.
Really? You can just return what you owe him, why are you always like this?
I gave it to him, but he didnt want it!
He doesnt want it? Then why did you say that hes asking you for more?
Tan Ruyi was almost confused. She waved her hand.This matter cant be exined in a few words. Well talk about it in the future!

At noon, Luo Feiyang appeared in front of tan Ruyi without any surprise.
There were so many people walking out of the teaching building after ss, but he could actually find her in the crowd at a nce!
Tan Ruyi subconsciously wanted to Dodge, but Luo Feiyang reached out and smacked her on the head.What are you running for? Do you think you can escape from me?
Tan Ruyi touched her forehead that hurt from his knocking and said unwillingly,I didnt run.
Pan Yan and five or six other female ssmates came over andughed,
Ruyi, youre so mean. We agreed to be single dogs together, why didnt you tell me that youre in love? He really hid it well!
Ruyi, your boyfriend is so handsome, no wonder youve always looked down on the few people in our ss who are pursuing you! Hahaha, look, Ruyi is blushing!
Tan Ruyi was embarrassed to beughed at by her ssmates. She red at Luo Feiyang and ran away.
Luo Feiyang nced at the female students and memorized their faces.
She didnt know why, but even though it seemed like there was nothing wrong with what they were saying, she felt that they werent good people.
He knew tan Ruyi. She was a little white rabbit without any schemes and always treated others as good people.
Since he had nothing to do, he would help the little white rabbit investigate these wolves in sheeps clothing when he had the time!
Luo Feiyang retracted his gaze and strode forward to catch up with tan Ruyi. He put an arm around her shoulder and smiled.Why are you running again? Is this young master not to be seen or what? Raise your head and smile at me!
Tan Ruyi flung his hand away and stomped on his foot. She revealed a smile that quickly turned into a disdainful expression.Sir, please stay away from me! You cant be seen!
Whos the boss! Im so young and youre already calling me Grandpa, shouldnt you be called Auntie?
Im very old?tan Ruyi stared.
Yes, very old!
You can call me grandma. I dont mind having a grandson!
Tan Ruyi! Youre getting more and more daring. Come here, dont run. Ill skin you and make braised rabbit!
The campus was filled withughter. Luo Feiyang was chasing and ying with tan Ruyi. He even forgot to eat.
Jing Xi had called him to ask when he could contact Li Xiao, but after three calls, she knew that Luo Feiyang was definitely with tan Ruyi.
She suddenly smiled. She felt that it was a very happy thing for Luo Feiyang to be able to find a girl who was truly suitable for him.
She drove to Jingsheng enterprise and entered Jing Ruis office.
Brother, I have something to ask you.
This was the first time that Jing Xi hade to Jing Ruis office. Thest time she had been here was twelve years ago, when she had blown up the office.
As time flew by, the little girl who loved to cause trouble and mess around in the past had be slender, elegant, cold, and calm. Her childishness had disappeared without a trace.
Usually, she was as calm as a machine. Only when she was angered would she reveal her sharp little ws and her mischievous side.
It was a pity that there were very few things that could anger her.
The person who had angered her had disappeared from A city.
Jing Rui pointed at the sofa and motioned for Jing Xi to sit down. He made some tea and handed it to Jing Xi.
What is it?
Do you know this Li Xiao person?
Jing Rui frowned and asked,where did you get his information? I only heard about it from my father this morning.
Luo Feiyang told me yesterday morning.
It seems that the Luo family is getting stronger and stronger. They got the news at least 24 hours earlier than us, Jing Rui said, still frowning.
Brother, I want to see Li Xiaos personal information!
We have very little information on him, but this person is indeed very suspicious.
Jing Rui knew more secrets than Jing Xi. He said calmly,ording to the information we have, Li Jing is the only descendant of the Li family. Li Wu said that he only has one daughter, Li Jing.
Originally, he wanted his son to inherit the Li familys business and let Li Jing take control of the killer organization. But Li Jings ambition is too big, and shes been slowly getting rid of her siblings. With her means and meticulousness, the probability of survivors is basically zero.
Her brothers analysis was exactly the same as hers. Jing Xi took a deep breath.Luo Feiyang also said that Li Xiao seemed to have hired arge number of assassins to kill Li Jing. Did he?
Jing Rui was silent for a moment before he replied,No. But
What?
But Lou Ziling hired them.
Jing Xi jumped up from the sofa, knocking over the cup of hot tea. The hot tea spilled on the back of her hand, burning her white skin, but she didnt feel it.
Jing Rui nced at her and called his assistant to bring some ice.
After the assistant left, he wrapped a towel with ice and personally put it on his sisters face.
Lou Ziling wasnt hired recently. In fact, he had been hired two years ago.
Jing Xis eyes were slightly red, and her voice was low and muffled.Oh, really? Then why didnt you tell me? Do you have any news of him?
No, I only know that hes the employer. The killer organization wont ask where he is. Instead, theyll protect all his information to ensure that it wont be leaked.
Jing Rui looked calm.But if you want to know, I can make an exception and let the killer organization break the rules to find out where he is.
Jing Rui could easily find someone, but he did not want to find Lou Ziling.
He hoped that Jing Xi could forget about this personpletely.
Jing Rui would only be willing to hand over his sister if she found a man who loved her and protected her for the rest of her life.
Lou Ziling was bankrupt and he had nothing. He was not a good match.
Jing Xi understood what Jing Rui was thinking. Not only him, but her parents were also thinking the same thing. Only she was not willing to give up.
No need, Ill find him myself.
Jing Xi sat back down on the sofa and said softly,That Li Xiao who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Brother, you have to be careful. However, since hes not on good terms with Li Zhi, he should be considered our ally.
Dont worry. Li Wu is still in my hands. Li Xiao and Li Jing wont do anything to him.
Jing Rui put the ice on Jing Xis hand. Seeing that the redness on the back of her hand had subsided a little, he put down the ice and asked her seriously,How about I introduce you to a boyfriend? Hes very good in all aspects, and his character is definitely not a problem.
No, Jing Xi shook her head.Its fine.
She had to meet that Li Xiao first!
She had a feeling that if she found Li Xiao, she would not be far from Lou Ziling!
She was not in the mood to see any other man except Lou Ziling.
She used to like all kinds of handsome guys, but Lou Ziling had cured her bad habit.

Chapter 1552: Revenge

In arge Manor in city W, the Li familys ancient ancestral home was hidden among tall pines and cypresses. It was mysterious and lifeless, which made people flinch.
The richly ornamented buildings and pavilions didnt look like a private residence. Instead, it looked more like a mansion of a King or a Minister in an ancient costume drama.
And under this mansion, there was another world.
Li Jing was locked up in the underground world.
Li Jing red at the man through the iron door and said in a hoarse voice,Who are you?
Third sister, youve already asked this question hundreds of times. Im Li Xiao.
Li Xiaos voice was slightly hoarse and cold, as if he was talking to a dead person.
Li Zhi was hiding in the cold and damp basement, resisting the cold and hunger. She sneered,Li Xiao is already dead. I killed him with my own hands. You can lie to others, but you cant lie to me! Who the hell are you? What enmity do I have with you that you have to torture me like this!
Youve killed everyone in the Li family, and you still have the cheek to ask me what kind of enmity you have with me? This is a blood feud!
Li Xiao sat in the wheelchair. Although he was shouting about the blood feud, his expression did not change much.
Didnt you already see the DNA test? theres no doubt that Im a member of the Li family. If you want to me someone, you can only me yourself for doing so many evil things that even the heavens cant bear to watch and let mee back to life!
On one hand, Li Jing was suspicious of Li Xiaos identity. On the other hand, she wondered if she had really left a loophole that allowed her brother to survive.
She no longer had any impression of Li Xiao.
She had many brothers and sisters, and most of them had never spoken to each other or met each other. She did not remember Li Xiaos appearance.
However, Li Xiao had always been in a wheelchair, which was in line with the characteristics of her murder. In order to prevent her siblings from escaping, she had broken their legs first.
But whether or not he was a member of the Li family, Li Jing would never acknowledge his identity!
This home could only belong to her alone. No one else could touch it!
Since youre a member of the Li family, were siblings. If dad finds out that youve imprisoned me like this, he wont let you off! Quickly let me out!
Oh, you mean that substitute?
Li Xiaos voice was neither loud nor soft, and it was a little indifferent.The first time I saw him, I felt that there was something wrong with him, so I went to do a DNA test. In the end It wasnt a match. Im afraid that the real head of the Li family has already be a ghost under your de, right?
Look, my parents died in your hands, and I almost died in your hands. Do you think you can escape?
Li Zhi raised her head abruptly and said,Youre not Li Xiao! Hahahaha, youre not! Speak, Who are you?
Dont waste your energy, Im Li Xiao. Now, everything in the Li family belongs to me. Youd better hand over all the power in your hands, or youll have to suffer again! Blood siblings, why must you kill each other?
The moment I hand over all my power will be the moment I die! Im the only one who knows all the secrets of the Li family. You want to control the Li family? In your dreams!
Li Jing couldnt suppress the anger in her heart. She had thought that the Li familys ancestral home would be very safe, but she didnt expect that there would be arge number of top assassins hidden here!
Although she was also an assassin, it was impossible for her to win against dozens of people at the same time!
As a result, she was severely injured. When she woke up again, she was locked up in this unbreakable basement cage.
She had been locked up here for a year. Half a year ago, Li Xiao could not withstand the external pressure and let her out to meet the media. She tried to escape but failed.
Li Xiao seemed to know her like the back of his hand. Every time, he could urately predict her thoughts and take precautions in advance.
Over the past year, Li Jing had tried every method she could think of, but every time she couldnt even escape from the manor, she would be caught and brought back to be tortured.
In order to save her life, she would reveal some of her familys secrets and hand over some assets.
If Li Xiao obtained the assets, he would let her live a good life for a few days.
For the first time in Li Jings life, she regretted killing her siblings. Otherwise, she could have asked them for help and Li Xiao wouldnt have barged in so easily to restrain her.
Her only sister was Shuyin, but Shuyin would nevere to save her.
As for her biological mother, Li Jing could only pretend that she didnt exist. Jiang Manshu was even more vicious than her!
Third sister, I heard that its your birthday in two days. As your brother, Im going to throw you a grand Party. All the rich and famous will attend. You have to introduce me to everyone at the Party. Im your brother, Li Xiao.
Li Jings heart skipped a beat. She felt that tomorrow might be a good time to escape!
Although it wasnt her birthday in two days, she didnt say anything and allowed Li Xiao to make up stories. Li Xiao just needed an excuse to make friends with the powerful. Li Xiao must have found out her birthday long ago!
Li Xiao seemed to know what Li Jing was thinking.There will be arge number of assassins lying in ambush outside the birthday party that day. Although Ive told you not to kill you, there might be an unprofessional assassin who will shoot you in the heart. So, youd better behave.
After he finished speaking, he pressed the button on the wheelchair and the electric wheelchair slowly left.
The basement was dimly lit, and Li Jing could barely see Li Xiaos back.
This back gave her a faint sense of familiarity, but she couldnt remember where she had seen it before.
She didnt know anyone who was in a wheelchair.
On Li Jings birthday, Luo feilie and Lou ruofei received an invitation.
However, the sender of the invitation was the mysterious Li Xiao who hade back to life!
The content of the invitation was sincere. It was a few hundred words long, expressing the importance that Li Xiao, his younger brother, ced on his elder sisters birthday. He wanted everyone toe to the Li family to support him.
Those who didnt know would think that the siblings had a very good rtionship!
Many families had received the invitation, except for family Jing.
The two families had always been at odds with each other and it was normal for them not to invite him. If they did, no one from family Jing would have gone.
Li Xiaos sudden appearance made many people want to gossip.
No one had ever seen him, and no one knew him. Countless people wanted to take this opportunity to see the man who had survived Li Zhis attack.
Those who received the invitation had strange expressions on their faces. Li Jing had held more than one birthday party in the past, and her birthday had been in spring, notte autumn!
Jing Xi sat across from Luo Feiyang, her eyes full of anticipation.Luo Feiyang, did you receive the invitation?
Chapter 1553
Chapter 1553: The Li n that is filled with sinister Qi
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang shook his head.No, the invitations this time seem to be for the heirs of the big families. Its obvious that Li Xiao wants to win over some power. My brother is the heir of our family, and I
He couldnt continue because he felt too embarrassed!
Jing Xi finally had a chance to use him, but Li Xiao didnt even like him!
If thats the case, then Ji moxuan should have received it. Ill go look for him!
No, no, no, I have a way to take you there. Theres no need to find him!
Two dayster, Li Jings birthday party was held at the Li familys ancestral home.
Luo Feiyang had arrived with Jing Xi.
W city was located in the South, several cities away from A city. It took the two of them more than three hours to get there.
Thete autumn in the North was already very cold, but thete autumn in the south was still a little warm. Although it was wet, the warm feeling made Jing Xi feel much better.
The Li family was extremely famous in city W. Almost everyone knew about the manor that covered an area of thousands of acres.
Luo Feiyang and Jing Xi found the ce easily.
But even if they found it, the two of them still had some doubts in their hearts.
This ce was filled with a sinister aura and was filled with tall pine and cypress trees. Who would grow these things in their house?
Pine trees and cypress trees were used to nt in haunted houses, which meant that they were nted around tombs, symbolizing that the dead could live forever.
The Li family had nted so many pine and cypress trees. Could it be that the ancestors of the family had been buried here for generations?
At the thought that there might be countless bones buried here, Luo Feiyang shuddered. He was so scared that his hair stood up.
He was a little regretful. If he had known earlier, he wouldnt have apanied Jing Xi here. Li Jing was a vicious person, and Li Xiao wasnt a human either. Would he lose his life here for a birthday party?
No wonder he had agreed so readily when he had asked Luo feichui for an invitation. He must have known that there was something fishy going on, so he had not taken the risk!
Luo Feiyang was trying to back out, but Jing Xi took a deep breath, grabbed his arm, and said calmly,Lets go in!
This Why isnt there anyone here to wee us? Did wee to the wrong ce? Why dont we ask around?
No need, this should be the ce.
Before she came, Jing Xi had already learned from Jing Rui that the Li familys ancestral home was indeed arge and solemn Manor with pine and cypress trees.
Besides, Luo Feiyangs guess was right. The Li familys ancestors had been buried in this Manor for generations.
Perhaps, the ground under their feet had buried a skeleton that had been sleeping for a hundred years.
But Jing Xi didnt say anything. It would be bad if she scared Luo Feiyang away.
As a member of the Jing family, she might not be able to enter the main hall of the banquet with the invitation of the Luo family. If she could not enter the main hall, she would not be able to see Li Xiao.
Luo Feiyang hade in ce of his brother and brought his own femalepanion to rece his sister-inw. That made sense.
The sun was setting in the West, and the light gradually dimmed. After entering the manor, the gloomy feeling became even stronger.
The South was always wet and rainy. At this moment, small fish suddenly floated in the sky and fell on the tall pine and cypress trees. Everywhere was foggy, and soon, everything around could not be seen clearly.
Luo Feiyang was so scared that he had goosebumps all over his body. If it wasnt for Jing Xi who was still walking quietly along the wooden nk Road, he would have turned around and run!
The atmosphere was too scary. Luo Feiyang couldnt bear the heavy pressure. He cleared his throat and shouted,Is there anyone? Im the second young master of the Luo family,e out and wee us!
His roar reverberated in the gloomy forest.
However, no one responded.
Arge flock of crows was disturbed by the sound, and they cawed with their hoarse voices, making the atmosphere even more strange.
Luo Feiyang was on the verge of tears.Xixi, he said.This Li Xiao cant be thinking of killing all the heirs of the families here, right? In a ce like this, no one will know if someone dies. By the time the police arrive, my body would have been eaten by the crows!
Thats impossible. Unless he doesnt want to live anymore, he wouldnt murder the heirs of the various families. Hurry up, theres a light up ahead!
Luo Feiyangs spirits were lifted. He followed Jing Xi and quickened his pace.
He grumbled in a low voice.If I had known that it would be so scary, I should havee with that bastard Ji moxuan. Otherwise, if I died and he lived, he would be so lonely!
Jing Xi was amused by him. She didnt expect that the arrogant Luo Feiyang was afraid of ghosts.
There were no ghosts in the world. Moreover, the most terrifying thing was not ghosts, but the human heart!
Everything in the Li familys Manor had an ancient charm to it. Even the roads were wooden nk roads connected by pine and cypress trees. The house was hidden in the depths of the manor, deep and magnificent.
After walking out of therge forest, the area in front of them suddenly opened up. The gloomy feeling had dissipated a lot, and there was the smell of human habitation.
A servant came up to them, took a look at the invitation, and led the two of them to the banquet hall.
I say, old man, why doesnt your family have a wee? I almost lost my way, you know!
Im sorry, Im sorry. Young master, our young master and youngdy dont like crowds. There are only a few servants in such a big garden. Todays banquet was a bit busy and the hospitality was not good. Please forgive us!
Luo Feiyang frowned. This old man was so polite, but why did it sound like he was not from the same era as him?
He looked at the old mans ancient long robe and then looked at his own modern suit. He started to feel scared again.
This old man Could he be a ghost that had lived for more than a hundred years?
It was not until they entered the banquet hall that the creepy feeling in Luo Feiyangs heart disappeared. Although the banquet hall was also in an ancient style, it was filled with a modern atmosphere. There was a huge LED disy, central air conditioning, champagne, Western food, desserts
Luo Feiyang heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that Jing Xis expression had not changed from the beginning to the end, he felt a little discouraged.
He now knew why Jing Xi looked down on him. Her mental strength and ability to adapt were much better than his!
It was only when he saw that Ji moxuan, who had just walked in, had also turned pale and had a bewildered expression on his face that Luo Feiyang felt a little more at ease.
He knew it. It was not that he was a coward, but that Jing Xi was too strong!
Shouldnt a girl be trembling in fear and throwing herself into a mans arms when she encountered such a situation?
If it was tan Ruyi, she would have been so scared that she would have cried. He could show off his manliness by pulling her into his arms and saying fearlessly,Dont be afraid, Ill protect you!
Now, all he needed to do was to run into Jing Xis arms and beg for her protection!
However, when Luo Feiyang saw the femalepanion beside Ji moxuan, he immediately rolled his eyes. How did he get involved with Wu Wei again? And he had even brought her to such an important asion!
He didnt like Wu Wei and immediately went to find trouble with him.
Jing Xi walked slowly in the banquet hall alone. She had walked through the two floors, but she did not see Li Xiao.
She thought for a moment, then jumped down from the second floor of the banquet hall and entered a house behind the banquet hall.
However, just as she stepped into the main hall of the house, a cold voice rang out behind her,Miss Jing, please leave!
Chapter 1554
Chapter 1554: No one likes loneliness except him
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi was shocked. She turned around and saw a man in a wheelchair.
The lights in the courtyard were dim, and his face could not be seen clearly. Jing Xi slowly approached him.You know me?
Thanks to my third sister, I know the entire family of miss Jing.
Few people knew that Li Jing was the third child of the Li family, but Jing Xi did.
Li Xiao? she was shocked.
Such a coincidence? She had wanted to find him, but she had actually met him in the first courtyard she had barged into?
It seems that Im not a nobody. Miss Jing, you know my name too. If so, please leave. If I remember correctly, I didnt send anyone to the Jing family to deliver the invitation.
Jing Xi walked up to him while he was talking.
Li Xiao neither dodged nor panicked. Under the dim light, he wore a dark gold mask on his face, only revealing his eyes.
You are not wee here. Miss Jing, dont rely on family Jing to run around. This is the Li family!
His voice was slightly hoarse, but it was surprisingly pleasant to the ears. However, his tone was too cold, with a hint of cruelty.
Jing Xi looked into his eyes for a long time before she slowly said,What happened to your leg?
Ha!
Li Xiaoughed sarcastically and said impatiently,Miss Jing, youre so well-educated. Youre always poking at peoples sore spot. I hate it when people ask about my legs. Butler, please send miss Jing away!
The Butler had been waiting outside. When he heard Li Xiao calling for him, he immediately walked in and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He said respectfully,Miss Jing, pleasee this way!
His young masters leg had been broken by the third miss when he was a child. The entire Li family did not dare to mention this matter. This miss Jing was really not afraid of anything. The first thing she asked was what was wrong with his leg. Wasnt she forcing the young master to drive her out?
Jing Xi did not move. She kept staring at Li Xiaos eyes, trying to see something in them.
Young master Li, your eyes look a little like my friend s. Perhaps you should have heard of this persons name. His name is Lou Ziling!
Who is it? What nameless soldier? this young master doesnt know him! Butler, what are you doing? Get out of the Li family if you dont want to work here anymore!
Yes, yes, yes! Miss Jing, please dont make things difficult for this old Butler. Please leave with me. This is our young masters courtyard, no one is allowed to enter!
The Butler broke out in a cold sweat, but he did not dare to drag Jing Xi out. He could only keep begging.
Jing Xi was a little disappointed. Li Xiao was wearing a mask, so she couldnt see his expression or face. She couldnt make an urate judgment.
However, the person in front of her was very different from Lou Ziling in terms of personality, voice, and attitude.
Lou Ziling would asionally get angry, but not this bad.
Perhaps He was in disguise?
All sorts of thoughts ran through Jing Xis mind. No, she had to take off his mask and see his face!
She looked at Li Xiao, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and slowly followed the Butler out of his courtyard.
Jing Rui had told her that Li Xiao must have some Masters and killers around him. Jing Xi remembered what her brother had said and didnt dare to be too presumptuous. If she was wrong and Li Xiao was Li Xiao, she would not only bring great trouble to the Jing family, but also her own life.
The Butler sent Jing Xi out of the Li familys Manor, but Jing Xi easily got rid of him. Then, she returned to the birthday partys banquet hall as if nothing had happened and sat down beside Luo Feiyang.
The banquet hall was brightly lit. The crystalmps and the retro Pcempsplemented each other, showing a different kind of luxury and wealth.
On the stage in the middle of the banquet hall, beautiful women were dancing, and there were people ying the violin in the four corners of the hall.
The hustle and bustle here formed a sharp contrast with the cold and dead silence outside.
At first, Jing Xi had thought that the Li family was up to something, or that there were some shocking secrets hidden in the manor. That was why there was no one in the Li family, and the whole ce was dead silent.
However, looking at the lively atmosphere, Jing Xi suddenly woke up.
Perhaps, it was not that the Li family wanted to hide any secrets, but that Li Xiao did not like crowds and preferred loneliness!
The ss cup in Jing Xis hand was crushed into pieces.
Lou Ziling!
Other than him, no one would like loneliness!
But that Li Xiao was clearly not like him!
She had said that Li Xiaos eyes were simr to one of her friends and that she was just bluffing.
Li Xiao had not revealed a single w just now, and Jing Xi had almost been fooled by him!
Aiya, Xixi, are you alright? The Li family is so rich, but why did they buy such poor quality cups?
Luo Feiyang was shocked to see the ss in Jing Xis hand break. He was about to hold Jing Xis hand to see if she was hurt, but Jing Xi moved her hand to the other side.
Im fine. Ill just change to another one.
The ss shards pierced Jing Xis palm, and her soft palm was already bleeding, but she didnt care.
Does it hurt?
It was quite painful, but it was far from the pain in her heart.
She couldnt control her emotions just now. When she thought that Lou Ziling might be living in this vast Manor, she lost control and identally crushed the ss cup.
Jing Xi stood up, picked up a white napkin, and went to the bathroom.
She cleaned her palm and took out the ss from her palm. She threw it into the trash can and then wiped the blood off her palm with a napkin.
The wound was very painful, but fortunately, Jing Xi had strong endurance. She pressed it with a napkin for a while, and when she saw that the bleeding had reduced, she threw the napkin into the trash can and walked out.
The birthday party began soon after. A huge cake with more than tenyers was pushed out by the Li familys servants. Li Jing appeared in front of the crowd in a bright red dress and high heels, apanied by the cheerful birthday song.
A masked man in a wheelchair also appeared with her.
Li Jing was dressed very jubntly, but the man was dressed in ck. Not only was he wearing a ck suit and leather shoes, but his shirt was also ck. He even wore a pair of ck leather gloves.
In addition to his dark gold mask, he looked more like he was attending a funeral than a birthday party!
The band was still happily singing Happy Birthday to you, but all the guests in the audience were dead silent.
Although Li Jing had put on makeup and was dressed very festive, her body was extremely thin and she looked extremely bad. Her eyes were gloomy and her expression was angry. She didnt look like she was celebrating a birthday at all.
After the happy birthday song ended, the atmosphere turned cold and tense.
Everyones eyes stayed on Li Jing for a few seconds before they turned to the man in the wheelchair.
Chapter 1555
Chapter 1555: Taking off the mask
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi was no exception.
She slowly moved through the crowd and approached the man who was the center of everyones attention.
Despite being stared at by countless people, Li Xiao remained seated steadily. He nced at the slowly moving figure and retracted his gaze. He said to the crowd in a lukewarm manner,This one thanks everyone foring. Today is my third sisters birthday. She has been sick for too long and has not seen anyone. She has be mute. Please dont mind her.
The crowd was in an uproar.
Could it be That Li Xiao cut off her tongue in order to take revenge on her?
This person was too vicious!
Li Zhi was furious and screamed,Li Xiao, youre the mute! Youre crippled and mute!
The crowd heaved a sigh of relief. So, he was not mute. The person in the wheelchair was Li Xiao!
However, no one had expected that Li Xiaos legs would be disabled!
Needless to say, Li Jing must have injured his leg. He didnt know how he had escaped from Li Jings evil ws and survived.
This pair of siblings really didnt get along!
My third sister has a bad temper, so please forgive her. Third sister, you should introduce me to them.
Li Xiaos slightly hoarse voice had an unquestionable coldness to it, and his eyes revealed an obvious threat through the mask.
Li Jing snorted coldly and said unwillingly,This wheelchair-bound man, who is neither human nor ghost, is my younger brother. I cant remember his exact ranking or how old he is. In any case, hes just a bastard child of a shameless B * stard girl!
As soon as she finished speaking, Li Xiao, who was in the wheelchair, suddenly patted Li Jing.
The sound of electric currents crackling could be heard in the quiet Hall. Li Jing screamed and fell to the ground. Her whole body was twitching as if she had epilepsy.
Jing Xi finally understood why Li Xiao was wearing gloves. It turned out to be a secret weapon!
This wasnt a birthday party. Li Xiao was clearly demonstrating his absolute control over the Li family!
Even Li Jing was under his control. In the future, everyone would be in contact with him and would no longer pay attention to Li Jing.
Im sorry to let everyone see this. Li Xiao had no choice but to do so. My mother is my fathers fourth wife and Im the young master of the Li family. Please be aware.
Li Xiao, who was sitting in a wheelchair, looked polite and gentlemanly. He seemed to be very easy to talk to.
However, the scene just now was enough to prove that his heart was not as kind as he appeared to be.
My legs are inconvenient, so I wont disturb your party!
Li Xiao gestured to the Butler behind him. The Butler immediately stepped forward and tried to push him away.
Hold on!
Li Xiao! Jing Xi shouted. She walked out of the crowd and stood in front of Li Xiao.
In an instant, she attracted countless gazes.
Her exposure rate was too low. Other than Luo Feiyang, Ji moxuan, and a few others who knew her identity, the rest of the people looked at her in surprise. They all thought that her action of rushing up to stop Li Xiao was too bold and beyond redemption.
Li Xiao was wearing a mask, so no one could see his expression. However, everyone could feel that he was unhappy.
Butler, why is miss Jing still here? Didnt I ask you to send him away?
The Butler was so scared that he was sweating profusely. He looked at Jing Xi for help.
You dont have to make things difficult for the Butler. I came back on my own. Since you know who I am, you should be clear that a Butler cant stop me.
Her tone was very impolite, and Li Xiao had called her miss Jing. Everyone instantly guessed Jing Xis identity.
Perhaps only the Pearl of family Jing could talk to Li Xiao in such an unscrupulous way.
Then, miss Jing, why are you stopping me now? what do you want?
Li Xiaos tone was gloomy as he looked at Jing Xi coldly.
I want to know why youre wearing a mask. This isnt a masquerade. Everyones showing their faces. Isnt it strange that youre the only one wearing a mask? Youre acting too cool!
This was actually everyones question, but no one dared to point it out like Jing Xi did.
She was indeed the youngdy of family Jing, who was not afraid of anything and dared to pull the Tigers whiskers.
Li Xiaos voice was a little indifferent.This young master likes to wear masks, what does it have to do with you! Also, I didnt invite you here, so go back to where you came from!
Luo Feiyang was watching from the side. He felt that if this continued, Jing Xi would definitely ruin her birthday party. He was not here to make the Luo family angry! He had brought Jing Xi here in the name of the Luo family, and he couldnt let her mess around.
He stepped forward and grabbed Jing Xis arm, trying to take her away.
Jing Xi pushed him away and took off Li Xiaos mask.
The hall was filled with gasps. Everyones eyes were focused on Li Xiaos face. Even Li Jing, who had just gotten up from the ground, was looking at Li Xiao.
Li Jing had only vaguely seen Li Xiaos face before. He wore a mask most of the time. Sometimes, he didnt wear it, and that was when the light was dim at night.
Today was the first time she had seen his appearance.
Under the bright light, there was a young face.
However, his face was pale without a trace of blood. There was a hideous scar on his face, ruining his handsome appearance and making him look a little terrifying.
It was only at this moment that the crowd realized that his eyes were actually deep blue!
His pupils glowed with a faint blue light under the crystalmp, which was unspeakably strange and scary.
There was a dead silence in the banquet hall. Jing Xi held the heavy dark gold mask in her hand, and she was a little stunned.
Did she guess wrong?
Hes not Lou Ziling?
Lou Zilings eyes were dark brown!
Lou Ziling didnt look like this!
But why did she feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity when he spoke?
Li Xiao slowly took his mask back from Jing Xis hand and put it on again. His slightly hoarse voice came from behind the mask, with anger and destion,Are you satisfied? I thought that my third sister was already detestable enough, but youre even more detestable than her!
He didnt need the Butler to push him. He pressed the button on the electric wheelchair and left the banquet hall.
Jing Xi was still standing there, motionless, with a nk expression.
Li Jing suddenly walked over and said in a low voice,You are the little demoness of the Jing family. My brother is a devil, but you are not afraid of him! As long as hes willing to save me, the Li familys hundreds of billions of assets will all belong to him!
Jing Xis expression did not change at all, as if she had not heard Li Jings words.
She was still thinking about Li Xiao.
The are you satisfied he had just said Lou Ziling had said it before, and her tone was almost the same!
Hey, are you deaf? Im talking to you!
Jing Xi slowly looked at Li Jing and asked,Didnt you kill all your brothers and sisters? why is this brother alive?
My brother? Li Jing sneered. What a joke! Li Xiao was long dead! This Li Xiao, we dont even know if hes a human or a ghost!

Jing Xi suddenly felt a glimmer of hope!
Li Jing didnt want to acknowledge Li Xiao as her brother!
You can find a way to get Li Xiaos hair or blood. I will do a DNA test for you. If he is not your brother, everything in the Li family will still be yours.
Jing Xis words surprised Li Jing.Youre willing to help me?
She and Jing Xi were basically mortal enemies, but she actually offered to help identify Li Xiao!
Miss Jing, are you up to something? What good would it do for family Jing if Li Xiao is not my brother? No, thats not right. I should be asking, what benefits do you have?
Li Jings mind was sharp. She could catch the slightest clue and find the truth.
Compared to her, Jing Xi was still a little inexperienced.
Li Xiao was the only one who could exchange blows with her and not reveal a single w.
Jing Xi already knew that her request was a little inappropriate, but she was eager to find out Li Xiaos true identity, so she could only use this method.
Of course Ill get some benefits, but you dont need to know!
Jing Xi stepped back slowly and said,If you dont want to, then forget it. If you die, family Jing will have one less opponent. Maybe Li Xiao and you can be allies in the future.
Jing Xi knew that Li Jing was short of help. If she wanted to get rid of Li Xiaos control, she could only rely on the Jing familys power. No one couldpete with the Li family except the Jing family.
She turned around and walked away. Her pace was neither fast nor slow, but in fact, she was still a little nervous.
I promise you! Li Jing quickly caught up. But Im not free now, so even if I get it, I cant give it to you. You cane to see me every day as my friend, and if I get it, Ill give it to you!
Li Xiao isnt a careless person. Youve seen it for yourself. Hes wrapped up tightly from head to toe. It wont be easy to get his hair and blood!
Jing Xi didnt turn around. She just said,Alright!
She could not wait toe here once a day. The more she saw Li Xiao, the more clues she would be able to find!
Although she knew that Li Jing was just using her and that there must be a conspiracy behind her daily visit, she couldnt care less. Even if she was being used, she had toe!
Otherwise, Jing Xi wouldnt know what kind of excuse she could use to get close to Li Xiao.
On the second floor of the banquet hall, which was not open to the public, Li Xiao, dressed in ck, sat in a wheelchair and watched Li Jing and Jing Xi talking downstairs.
At that moment, the old Butler was no longer standing behind him. Instead, there were two skinny and capable men standing behind him. Both of them were holding guns in their hands and were quietly hiding in the darkness behind Li Xiao.
And there were countless such experts lying in ambush outside the building.
The birthday party wasnt lively at all. Other than the music, there wasnt any joy in the atmosphere.
Many people left one after another. Li Xiao watched as Luo Feiyang took Jing Xi away by the arm and ordered his men,Send someone to keep an eye on miss Jing and report her location. Dont let her have any contact with Li Jing.
His chess game was huge andplicated. He had prepared for this game for hundreds of days and nights.
His n was so meticulous that few people could ruin it.
But Jing Xi happened to have this ability.
Li Xiao had already prepared enough means to prevent Li Jing from escaping while there were so many guests tonight.
Her original intention to escape was also very obvious, but after a few words with Jing Xi, she did not run away!
It was obvious that she had reached some kind of agreement with Jing Xi.
A sneer appeared on Li Xiaos pale face under the mask. He didnt even need to guess to know what the two of them were plotting.
He was well aware of Li Jings personality and style of doing things.
As for Jing Xi, Li Xiao knew what she was up to.
After leaving the Li family, Luo Feiyang brought Jing Xi to the best hotel in city W. Ji moxuan and Wu Wei checked in as well.
Four people, four rooms. Luo Feiyang wanted to talk to Jing Xi and ask her what was going on.
From the moment she heard about Li Xiao, Jing Xi became a little abnormal, but Luo Feiyang couldnt see anything suspicious about Li Xiao.
But Jing Xi had no intention of talking to him. She went into her room, took a shower, and fell asleep on the bed without eating anything.
It waste at night. On the 16th floor of the hotel, a tall man was walking slowly along the long corridor.
He was dressed in ordinary ck sportswear and a ck baseball cap. The brim of the cap was pressed very low, and his head was lowered, revealing only half of his white chin.
The hotel was very quiet at night.
The man walked to the door of one of the rooms and swiped the key card.
The crisp sound of the electronic door was heard. The door opened and he walked in.
The lights were off in the room, and the bright moonlight shone in through the window, shining on the graceful figure on the bed.
Lou Ziling sat by the bed. After making sure that the medicine had taken effect and that Jing Xi would not wake up, she gently touched her delicate face.
She was twenty years old, and the innocence and ignorance of a young girl had faded, adding a trace of coldness and beauty.
Under the moonlight, she was like the legendary Sleeping Beauty, waiting for the Prince to wake her up with a kiss.
Lou Ziling was not ready to be the Prince who would spend the rest of her life with her, but he still lowered his head and kissed her soft lips.
He told himself that this was thest time.
Under the moonlight, he lifted Jing Xis right hand and took out an alcohol cotton ball and ointment from his pocket. He disinfected and applied the medicine on her.
He was really good at resisting. His hand was already pierced by the broken ss, but he actually endured it without a word.
How did Luo Feiyang take care of her? he didnt even know that her palm was bleeding?
Lou Ziling carefully treated Jing Xis wound. She applied medicine but did not bandage it for fear that she would notice something was wrong.
He sat by her side for a long time until the effects of the knockout powder were about to wear off. Then, he slowly left.
The next morning, Jing Xi woke up feeling a little dizzy.
It seemed like it had been a long time since she had such a good sleep. She did not even have a dream until dawn.
She got up and stood by the window barefooted. She looked at the lush and towering pine and cypress trees of the Li family in the distance and a faint smile appeared on her face.
Maybe she was sleeping better because she was getting closer to Lou Ziling?
Jing Xi opened the window and the fresh morning air came in. She took a few deep breaths and went to the bathroom to wash up.
When she was washing her face, she suddenly realized that the wound on her palm had healed a lot.
Jing Xi was a little confused. Had he recovered so quickly?
Even after she had washed her face and brushed her teeth, she was still looking at her palm.
Perhaps the wounds from yesterday were very shallow!
Jing Xi stopped thinking about her wound and went out of the room to call Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan for breakfast.
Luo Feiyang was fine. He was used to waking up early and had already tidied himself up early in the morning. However, Ji moxuans clothes were untidy and he politely rejected Jing Xi.
Tsk, he must have yed tricks with Wu Wei against night. His face is full of excessive indulgence!

Chapter 1557: So youre not crippled
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi smiled.Theyre a couple. Its normal. Although I dont like Wu Wei, I cant deny that shes beautiful!
Whats the use of being pretty? Ever since she entered the entertainment industry, she had been getting what she wanted. She had slept with countless men! Ji moxuan isnt disgusted, nor is he afraid of getting sick!
Luo Feiyang was very angry, as if Wu Wei had stolen his boyfriend.
Forget it, lets not talk about it. Hell regret it one day, and the Ji family will never let him marry that woman. Lets go back to A city today, Ive already booked the tickets!
You can go back first, I still need to stay here for a few days.
Why? Luo Feiyang was stunned. Was it because of Li Xiao? No way, not only is he a cripple, but his face is also disfigured. You like him?
Jing Xi shook her head.No, I just want to stay here for a couple of days. The Li family chose this ce because of the beautiful scenery. Its a good ce for retirement and living.
Alright, Ill go back first.
Luo Feiyangs heart was set on returning home. He especially did not like gloomy ces like the Li familys house. City A was better. It was next to the mountains and the sea. It was prosperous and developed. The autumn air was refreshing and the sun was bright.
The weather in city W was always gloomy and depressing.
More importantly, Luo Feiyang had already realized that he would not be able to see tan Ruyi after leaving A city. He kept feeling like something was missing.
After breakfast, Luo Feiyang went to the airport.
Jing Xi took a taxi and went straight to the Li familys house.
What was different from yesterday was that the Li family manors Gate was tightly shut, as if it was closed to all guests.
There wasnt even a gatekeeper in such arge Manor, and Jing Xi couldnt find anyone to go in and inform him.
She simply climbed over the wall.
Walking alone in the thick pine and cypress forest, Jing Xi was tense and surrounded by thick fog.
It wasnt that she was afraid of ghosts, but she was worried that someone would plot against her.
However, he was able to find the path yesterday, but he couldnt find it again today!
She had always had a good sense of direction, but she was lost here.
After a long while, Jing Xi still couldnt get out. She could only shout,Is anyone there? Im lost! Li Jing! Li Xiao!
She called out to him many times, but he ignored her. Just as she was about to climb up the tree to get her bearings, a wheelchair slowly appeared in front of her.
Wearing a ck suit and a dark gold mask, Li Xiaos voice was cold and indifferent.Miss Jing, you were looking for me?
Your house is too big, Jing Xi replied.Im lost. Take me out! Im looking for Li Jing!
Trespassers, I can call the police now.
Then go ahead and report!
Li Xiaos dark blue eyes looked at Jing Xi. Its a miracle that youre still alive even though youre so unbridled.
Jing Xi looked at Li Xiaos short hair and wondered how she could get close to him and take a strand of his hair without anyone knowing.
Unfortunately, every time she took a step closer to Li Xiao, his wheelchair would take a step back and he would always maintain a distance of five to six meters from her.
Jing Xi was a little upset that she had been too impatient yesterday and had taken off his mask, so he had already taken precautions against her.
However, the wheelchair would definitely not be able to outrun her, right?
Jing Xi rushed forward and quickly approached Li Xiao.
Li Xiao did not expect her to suddenly rush over like a mad woman. She always did not y by the rules, and he was stunned.
While he was still in a daze, Jing Xi had already pounced on him.
The huge impact caused Li Xiao to lose his bnce in the wheelchair and the two of them fell to the ground.
Li Xiao was on the bottom, and Jing Xi was on the top. Their positions were very ambiguous.
It was a good opportunity for Jing Xi to quickly pull Li Xiaos hair from his head.
However, Li Xiaos hair was too short. In her hurry, she had not controlled her strength well. Li Xiaos scalp went numb, but she could not pull out a single hair!
Even Li Xiaos mask had been knocked off by her. The bridge of his nose hurt, and his scalp was burning. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood!
He smacked Jing Xis butt and shouted angrily,Dont make a scene, get up!
Jing Xi was stunned by the numbing sensation on her butt.
Moreover, why did Li Xiaos tone sound so familiar?
She stared at Li Xiaos pale face and gave him a tight p. Her eyes were red as she said,Who allowed you to touch my butt?
She wanted to hit him again, but Li Xiao grabbed both her hands.Get lost!
Jing Xi struggled to break free from Li Xiaos hand and took off his clothes like a madman. There was a bite mark on Lou Zilings chest. She did not believe that she could not find evidence!
However, Li Xiao, who looked thin and weak, as if he was seriously ill and disabled, was very strong. He pushed Jing Xi away.
Two Men in ck jumped down from the tall pine tree and helped Li Xiao up from the left and right, putting him back into the wheelchair.
Jing Xi slowly got up from the ground and stared at Li Xiao without blinking.Li Xiao, your face is fake!
Li Xiao put on his mask again and said in a low and hoarse voice,Youre not allowed to step into the Li familys house again! If you dont listen to my warning, then dont me me for imprisoning you.
Jing Xi did not seem to hear his warning at all. She continued,
I pped you on purpose just now. Under normal circumstances, your face should be red, but it didn t. Your face is still pale. Could it be that youre a dead man? Thats why your blood isnt circting and youre not red and swollen even after being hit?
Also, if youre not guilty, why dont you let me take off your clothes?
Because the face under the mask is still a mask!
It was quiet all around, and only Jing Xis voice echoed in the forest.
After a long time, Li Xiao said indifferently,Its my business whether I wear a mask or not. I dont have a hobby of being stripped by a madman. Do you like to be stripped?
That depends on whos the one taking off my clothes.
Jing Xi patted the dust off her clothes.If you want to see, Ill take it off for you.
As she spoke, she began to unbutton her shirt. After a while, she took off her coat and threw it on the ground. Then, she began to take off the shirt inside.
She had only unbuttoned the third button when the view of her chest was revealed. Li Xiao shouted at her angrily,Put on your clothes!
Jing Xi suddenlyughed.Im not taking off my clothes for you to see. Your two men are pretty and seem to be good at fighting. Ill take off my clothes for them to see, okay?
As she spoke, she swiftly unbuttoned the third button, revealing her white underwear.
Li Xiao couldnt take it anymore and angrily ordered his two subordinates to leave.
Then, he suddenly stood up from the wheelchair and strode to Jing Xi, buttoning her shirt up in a hurry.
Jing Xi looked at his dark blue eyes in a daze, and tears fell down.
Li Xiao, so youre not crippled!
Chapter 1558
Chapter 1558: Let me send you on your way first
Trantor: 549690339
When did I say I wasme?!
Li Xiaos voice was cold. He quickly buttoned up Jing Xis shirt and went back to his wheelchair.
Jing Xis tears were still falling.Why are you sitting in a wheelchair if youre not crippled? I thought your legs were broken!
Does my broken legs have anything to do with you? This is family li, not a ce you should be. Go back to family Jings territory, this is my world!
What does it have to do with you whether I wear my clothes or not? Why are you in such a hurry to button me up?
Li Xiaos gloved hands clenched into fists, but then he loosened them. Ignoring Jing Xi, he pushed the wheelchair button and slowly walked away.
Jing Xi felt terrible as she watched him disappear into the fog.
She put on her coat again and walked out in the direction that Li Xiao had left in.
She was no longer in the mood to look for Li Jing. All she wanted to do now was to get out of this dark forest.
However, after walking for a long time, she still couldnt get out. She seemed to be walking in circles.
When she was exhausted, the old Butler of the Li family appeared in front of Jing Xi. He bowed slightly and said respectfully,Miss Jing, pleasee with me. Itll be difficult to get out of this forest if you barge in by mistake.
Jing Xi followed the old Butler in silence. After a while, she asked,Who asked you toe and take me out?
Its my familys young master,
When did your young mastere back?
The old Butler smiled.Its been three years. I even carried him when he was young. Now, hes getting more and more majestic!
Three years?
Thats not right!
The timing didnt match!
Didnt Luo Feiyang say that Li Xiao had only appeared in the Li family in thest six months to fight for the familys assets with Li Jing?
Or was the old Butler lying?
Jing Xis mind was in a mess, and her eyes were full of doubt.Is your young master crippled?
Miss Jing, did you see young master walking? Sigh, his leg is sometimes good and sometimes bad, but he can stand up and walk asionally. The doctores to perform acupuncture on the young master every day, and hes getting better.
Reallyme?
No, no, no, he wouldn t!
Lou Zilings leg was definitely fine. This Li Xiao was not Lou Ziling!
Miss Jing, please dont ask about young master. He doesnt like it when people ask him about these things. He gets angry every time our eldest miss mentions it.
Hes so fierce, and I can see that youre quite afraid of him. Why do I feel like youre still very good to him?
The old Butlers smile deepened the wrinkles on his face.Although young master is fierce, as long as he doesnt do anything wrong, his life isnt in danger. My son and daughters jobs were arranged by young master, and now theyre running the restaurant for young master. My grandchildren have also entered a good school. Even if I die, I can rest in peace. Naturally, I have to do my best for young master!
So good at buying peoples hearts?
This was not Lou Zilings style!
Could she have guessed wrong?
Back at the hotel, Jing Xi took a shower and sat on the bed in a daze.
Was it?
Li Xiao had wrapped himself up and refused to even show his hands. There must be a problem.
If he had not worn gloves, Jing Xi would have been able to tell if it was him by just looking at his hands.
The joints of his hands were distinct, and his fingers were slender and good-looking. They could almost be used as hand models.
No, she had to confirm it one more time!
At night, Jing Xi changed into ck sportswear and light sneakers and sneaked into the Li familys Manor again.
It was easy to get lost at night, but Jing Xi couldnt care less. It was easy to be discovered during the day, and it was better to hide at night.
Moreover, she had walked once during the day and already knew the general direction.
The Li familys Manor was pitch ck. There wasnt even amp at the entrance. It was gloomy and looked like a Cemetery.
Jing Xi did not believe in ghosts at first, but her teeth were chattering when she saw this. This Manor was like a monster that could devour human flesh. She could die if she was not careful.
But today, unexpectedly, Jing Xi walked out of therge pine and cypress forest smoothly and arrived at the banquet hall where the birthday party was held yesterday.
Perhaps it was because it was alreadyte at night, but the banquet hall was not lit up, and no one was guarding it.
Li Xiaos residence was located in the courtyard behind the banquet hall. Jing Xi sneaked in without a sound.
The yard didnt look big, but the interior was extremely spacious. There were countless rooms, and Jing Xi had to search through more than a dozen before she found Li Xiaos bedroom.
There was a faint medicinal fragrance in the bedroom. It was clean and tidy.
There was a person lying on the bed, seemingly sleeping soundly.
Jing Xi looked around at the decoration of the room. It was simple and elegant, and all the furniture was made of wood. It did not look modern at all.
She frowned slightly. Lou Ziling was both a minimalist and a modernized person. His room was decorated in a simple and modern way because it would make life more convenient.
This Li Xiao
She walked to the bed, wanting to see how Li Xiao slept. She wanted to see if he was wearing a mask when he slept.
However, as soon as she looked over, a gun was pointed at the back of her head.
Miss Jing, itste at night, and youre here to visit me. Is there something you need?
Li Xiao entered the bedroom in the wheelchair. The lights in the room were turned on, and Jing Xi could see clearly that it was not Li Xiao lying on the bed. It was a fake person made ording to his body proportion!
Behind her, a Man in ck had appeared out of nowhere and was pointing a gun at her. His eyes were dead silent.
Jing Xi shivered. This man was a top killer!
Did you think that I wouldnt kill you?
Li Xiao was still wearing the dark gold mask and a hat. He was dressed in ck and looked even colder than the killer with the gun.
Dont block my way. This is myst warning to you! I dont care what agreement you made with Li Jing, you better give up now!
Tell me who you are and Ill leave you alone. Otherwise, dont even think about getting a single cent from the Li family!
Ha
Li Xiao let out a breath and said indifferently,Im Li Xiao, the only heir of the Li family in the future. I dont care if I dont take the Li familys money, but if I have nothing, you and your family will have nothing too! My patience is limited. Since you keep looking for death, Ill send you on your way first!
Jing Xi was sure that he would not dare to touch her, which was why he had run to the Li family so unscrupulously.
You wont kill me. If you kill me, you wont be able to live! He said.
No, miss Jing, youve misunderstood. Im such a smart person, how could I kill you with my own hands? Li Jing alone was enough! When you are dead, I can use the power of family Jing to get rid of my third sister.
Li Xiao suddenlyughed and said,ha, if she dies, everything in the Li family will be mine! If you die, family Jing will avenge me with a huge sum of money. I am the biggest winner!

Chapter 1559: Tearing off another mask
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi looked at Li Xiao in disbelief. How could this man be so cruel! He wanted her life?
No, Lou Ziling would never take her life!
Youre not Lou Ziling She said in a dry and trembling voice.
Of course Im not!
Li Xiao sat in the wheelchair, and there seemed to be a fire dancing in his blue eyes.Ive never seen the person youre talking about. Im the future heir of the Li family. You and Li Jing can both go to hell!
He waved his hand, and the killer behind Jing Xi hit her on the back of her neck.
Jing Xi fell to the ground.
Li Xiao saw that she had fainted and slowly got up. He picked her up from the ground and ced her on the bed.
It waste at night at the end of autumn and the beginning of winter. It was extremely cold, but she was only wearing thin sportswear, so her hands and face were cold.
Li Xiao wrapped the nket around her, took off his gloves, and ced her small hand in his palm, expelling the cold from her body.
After an unknown amount of time, he finally spoke in a slightly hoarse voice,Move Li Jing to a morefortable ce and remove a few guards. Theres no need to be too strict,
The subordinate responded and went to change Li Jings room to a warm, dpidated one.
When Jing Xi woke up, she found herself lying in a dpidated room. She was not on a bed, but arge patch of dried grass.
Oh, miss Jing, youre awake! That brother of mine is really cruel. Its fine that he threw me into this pigsty because he has a blood feud with me, but you have no grudges with him, and youre so beautiful, but hes actually willing to torture you like this!
Perhaps it was because no one had spoken for a long time, but Li Jing was a little talkative. Her eyes were full of excitement.
He locked us up together on purpose to make me kill you, right? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Hes actually not moved by such a delicate beauty! You dont want to enjoy it before you die?
Ah, I forgot that his legs arent agile. Im afraid he cant do anything in bed! I dont know if hes still a man, maybe hes a eunuch now!
Jing Xi touched the back of her neck, which was still in pain. Shey on the grass and did not respond.
He was not Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling would not be so cruel.
She had lost her goal again, and the hope in her heart had been extinguished. Her eyes had lost their luster, and she was a little dazed.
Jing Xi, how about I get you out of here? But you have to promise me that family Jing will work with me to get rid of Li Xiao first. We can be the closest allies!
Sure, Jing Xi said listlessly.Just Get Me Out Of Here first.
She knew that Li Jing must have had some means of self-protection. Li Xiao had not killed her because he was soft-hearted, but because Li Jing had great value.
That night, Li Jing escaped with Jing Xi.
Li Xiao was wearing a ck tweed coat, standing upright in the thick fog of the forest. He asked indifferently,Did they escape?
Yes, weve let them escape ording to your orders, the subordinate replied respectfully.
Yes, follow her closely. Dont act too fake.
Yes!
Just let miss Jing escape. Li Jing must be caught again.
Yes!
Li Xiao had been waiting in the manor for a long time. He was still worried about Jing Xis safety. He was afraid that the assassins would hurt her by ident, so he drove out of the manor himself.
He was wearing a hat and a mask, revealing only his eyes, and he followed Jing Xi and Li Jing at a distance.
His subordinates acting was so realistic that he even overturned the taxi they were in!
He heard Jing Xis scream and his heart trembled. He stepped on the gas pedal and chased after the taxi.
The car door opened, and Li Jing stepped on Jing Xis back and got out first.
Before she could raise her head, Li Xiao kicked her.Li Jing, you deserve to die!
Li Zhi was already seriously injured, and after being kicked so hard, she immediately fainted.
As she was being dragged away, Li Xiao immediately bent over, carried Jing Xi out of the taxi, and put her in his car.
Blood gushed out of her forehead and she fainted. Li Xiao panicked and drove her to the hospital.
In the middle of the night, there were few people on the road. The route Li Jing had chosen to escape was remote, and there was not even a small clinic nearby.
Li Xiao drove with one hand and held Jing Xis hand tightly with the other, checking her temperature and pulse.
Fortunately, she should have only fainted temporarily from the impact. Her body temperature and pulse were normal.
He was driving very fast, and a heavy truck was driving towards him. Li Xiao instinctively avoided it.
However, the truck was charging at him at a speed faster than his!
The moment the two cars collided, Li Xiao held Jing Xi in his arms and protected her from the huge impact.
The sky and earth spun, and the sound of violent collisions and explosions resounded through the sky.
The truck had crushed Li Xiaos car under it. The truck driver was dead, and Li Xiao and Jing Xi were not in a good condition.
Li Xiao fainted for a moment, but he soon woke up.
He cursed in his heart. He had fallen into Li Jings trap!
She had always been suspicious of his identity. Seeing Jing Xiing to the Li family to pester him again and again, she must have guessed his identity.
From the beginning to the end, she had been using Jing Xi. Everything that had happened today was an act she had deliberately yed along with him!
She had probably even arranged for that taxi to be used!
The trucks target was also him and Jing Xi!
He had underestimated this woman. She was able to control the entire Li family and kill all of his brothers and sisters. Her ruthlessness was not the only word that could describe her. Her ability to scheme and endure was unparalleled!
She knew that his only weakness was Jing Xi.
Li Xiao gently caressed Jing Xis cheek to make sure she was safe before he tried to open the door and climb out from under the car.
The car was already on fire. If they didnt get out, they would be burned to death in the car.
Li Xiaos movement woke Jing Xi up.
She slowly opened her eyes and saw herself in someones arms.
In the small space, something dripped by her ear.
The smell of blood spread. She touched the drop of liquid by her ear and looked at it with the help of the fire. It was blood.
He was bleeding.
Li Xiao?
Yes.
Li Xiao replied indifferently.
His cap was gone, but the mask was still covering his face, revealing a pair of deep blue eyes.
Jing Xi took off his ck mask and looked at his pale face with terrifying scars. She touched it and then tore off theyer of skin.
Another pale but handsome face was revealed in front of Jing Xi.
The quality of your two masks isnt very good. Lou SIs eyes are shining!

Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling closed her eyes and said in her usual indifferent tone,It doesnt need to be too good, as long as it can cover my original face.
Why did you lie to me? Why?
Tears fell from the corners of Jing Xis eyes. Her voice was shrill and painful. She had lost it and found it, but the despair in her heart was growing.
He didnt want her!
She was already standing in front of him, but he still didnt want her!
Im not lying to you on purpose, Im lying to the whole world. Youre just a grain of sand in the whole world. I lost everything to Li Zhi. The best way to get revenge on her is to take everything from her. I cant do anything if you insist on getting involved in this battle.
He spoke as if he was talking to a stranger, as if Jing Xi was insignificant and he didnt have her in his eyes.
His indifferent attitude hurt Jing Xis heart. She cried,How can you be so cruel! Ive been looking for you for more than two years. Ive grown up, cant we get married?
Were not suitable.
Who said that! We havent even gotten along or been in a good rtionship. How do you know were not suitable?
Lou Ziling was unmoved. She said coldly,Stop messing around. Its very dangerous now. Lets think of a way to get out first, or well both die Here. This is what Li Jing wants to see the most!
Im not going out!Jing Xi hugged him. I wont be able to find you if I go out, so dont even think about ditching me. Either you get married, or well die together here!
Lou Ziling was furious.The cars temperature is rising. Do you want to be burned to death?! Youre still making a scene at a time like this!
Being burned to death is much better than being ignored by you! Im not the only one whos going to die, Ill go to hell with you!
Jing Xi said as she reached out to take off Lou Zilings clothes. Its so hot in the car, Ill help you take off your clothes first!
As she said that, she put her head into Lou Zilings clothes and started to gnaw and bite his chest.
Lou Ziling hugged her tightly and called out in a panic,Xixi, dont mess around. Come out and be good!
Her lips were warm and soft, and when they touched his skin, he felt a surge of electricity.
He was already very hot, and now he felt that his whole body was burning!
Jing Xi took her head out of his clothes and looked at Lou Ziling with her wet eyes.You can kiss me!
Lou Ziling didnt move. Jing Xis hand slowly reached for his pants to untie his belt.Are you going to kiss me?
Lou Ziling was almost driven crazy by her. This was the most embarrassing moment of her life!
Li Jing was enough to make him break down, but that was a battle of strength. What Jing Xi had destroyed was his spirit and will!
He lowered his head, bit Jing Xis lips hard, and started to kiss her wildly.
Jing Xi wrapped her arms around his neck and responded to him with a choppy kiss, tears falling from her eyes.
Lou Ziling, do you really not like me anymore?
Her words were muffled by Lou Zilings kiss, but Lou Ziling heard her clearly.
He didnt say a word. The tip of his tongue was deeply entangled with hers, as if he wanted to eat her up.
Jing Xis hand reached into his clothes and stroked his back.
It was arge wet patch.
She took out her hand and looked at it, only to see that her hand was covered in red blood.
Lou Ziling, youre injured!
Lou Ziling replied with a soft hmm, but she was still kissing her lips and her eyes hungrily.
Stop stop stop, lets go out! You need to go to the hospital! Youll die if you lose so much blood!
Lou Ziling bit Jing Xis chin hard. Her voice was low and hoarse, with unconcealed lust. Didnt you just say that you wanted to die here with me?
Im just speaking in a fit of anger. I dont want you to die!
You wont let me kiss you?
I dont want it anymore! Youve already kissed me, so stop pressing on me and get out!
Jing Xis voice was filled with anxiety and tears. She didnt know how badly Lou Ziling was injured, but she was not injured. He must have protected her at the moment of the ident!
He had taken all the impact, so his injuries were definitely not light!
At that moment, Lou Ziling was almost driven crazy by her torture. If it were not for the inappropriate asion, he would have punished the little woman in his arms.
Ill lift the car up a little. You go out first and be careful. Li Jings men might be waiting outside.
What will you do if I go out? You go out first! After you go out, lift the car up a little, and I can go out!
No!
Lou Ziling refused without a second thought. What if he didnt have the strength to carry the car anymore and left Jing Xi alone in the car? What if the car exploded?
He lowered his head and kissed Jing Xi on the lips.Listen to me, dont fight with me over this. We wont die. If you dont listen to me, Ill pretend I dont know you in the future.
Jing Xis eyes were red.Okay, Ill listen to you. But when we get out of here, you cant leave me!
Lou Ziling nodded.
He pushed Jing Xi out of the car, enduring the great pain in his back, and tried his best to push the car open.
Jing Xi quickly slipped out of the crack.
As soon as she got out of the car, Lou Ziling couldnt bear the huge force of the car and was crushed under it.
Lou Ziling! Jing Xi shouted.Lou Ziling!
Lou Zilings restrained voice came from the car. Yes, Im fine. Ill go out after I rest for a while. You stay away from the car. Donte close in case it explodes.
His wound burst open, and blood gushed out, dyeing the ground red.
When he had Jing Xi in his arms, he could still hold on. Now that she was out and safe, Lou Ziling had no more strength to push the car.
Im not leaving! Come out, dont scare me!
Jing Xis face was covered in tears. She finally realized that he only had the strength to push the car away once!
He told her toe out and stay away from him for fear of an explosion, but he didnt think about it at all when he was in the car!
She didnt care that the car would burn her hands. She wrapped her hands with clothes and carried the car with all her might.
Unfortunately, she was too weak. Most of Lou Zilings car was crushed by the truck and she couldnt lift it at all!
She didnt even know where Lou Ziling got the strength to lift the car so that she could get through.
Jing Xi was 20 years old this year. She had experienced many dangerous situations in her short life. Jing Yichen had designed many scenes for her to deal with all kinds ofplicated and dangerous situations.
In the past, she had always found it fun, but at this moment, she was grateful from the bottom of her heart for her fathers unparalleled foresight.
At this critical moment of life and death, her mind was still clear. She knew that crying was useless. She used the tire that was hit by the truck as a lever and stuffed it under the car.
Lou Ziling had already stopped breathing in the car. No matter how Jing Xi called out to him, he did not respond.
By the time she pushed the car away with the wheels and dragged Lou Ziling out, he was already covered in blood.

Jing Xi cried and hugged Lou Ziling. His breath was getting weaker and weaker. However, they were in the middle of nowhere. She didnt know how to take Lou Ziling to the hospital.
In her moment of despair, a helicopter quickly flew over andnded on top of her.
Jing Rui got off the helicopter and looked at his sister. He said to mu Sen,Lets go and see if hes dead.
Brother! Jing Xi cried.Hes not dead!
Well, youre shouting so loudly. It seems that youre not hurt. Our mother insisted that I take you home with a helicopter. This kid is lucky!
Mu Sen gave Lou Ziling a rough look and said with a serious expression,Hes not in good condition. He has lost a lot of blood, arge area of his back is burnt, and his leg bones are fractured. Its already a miracle that hes been able to hold on until now!
He waved his hand and asked his men to carry Lou Ziling to the stretcher. Seeing that Jing Xi was fine, he didnt care about her and followed her into the helicopter for emergency treatment.
Jing Xi struggled to get up from the ground. She wanted to go to see Lou Ziling, but she had used all her strength to pry open the car. When she stood up, her legs went weak and she fell down again.
Jing Rui quickly stepped forward and caught her. He lifted her up and his face changed when he saw her hands and body covered in blood. Youre injured?
Its not my blood, Jing Xi shook her head.Its Lou Ziling s. Put me down, Ill walk on my own.
Jing Rui heaved a sigh of relief and carried her into the helicopter.Im your brother, your biological brother! I wouldnt hug you even if someone else kneeled and begged me to!
He put Jing Xi on the small bed in the helicopter. Seeing that she was going to see Lou Ziling, he put a hand on her shoulder and said,With mu Sen, he wont die. Do you think the MU family is known as the family of divine doctors for nothing?
But But Lou Ziling beat up cousin mu before.
Oh, then mu Sen will not take the opportunity to kill him. This will ruin the reputation of the MU family. He usually saves the person first, and when the person is still alive and kicking, he will kill the person.
Impossible, cousin isnt such a person! I believe in him!
Jing Xi said that she believed mu Sen, but she pushed Jing Rui away and rushed to Lou Ziling, afraid that Lou Ziling would suffer in mu Sens hands.
Our family is giving Lou Ziling an amulet, Jing Rui sighed.
The helicopter flew back to A city. Lou Zilings condition had improved, and Jing Xi was in the mood to deal with her own injury.
There were no wounds on her body, only the skin on the top of her head. The doctor shaved off a small part of her hair, applied medicine, and bandaged it.
Two dayster, her gauze was removed, and her wound had recovered well. She covered it with her long hair, and no traces could be seen.
However, Lou Ziling did not wake up.
He was lying in the intensive care unit, his face extremely pale.
Mu Sen came in to change Lou Zilings medicine. When he saw Jing Xi, he smiled and asked,You dont believe in my medical skills?
No, I believe you. Im just A little worried about him.
Hes too seriously injured. Hell definitely be unconscious for a few days. But his physical condition is good, and his condition is stable. Its not a big deal.
Yes, Jing Xi nodded.Thank you, cousin!
Mu Sen smiled. He did not know when his cousin had stopped calling him brother mu. She had changed to calling him cousin in such a distant way.
Was he afraid that Lou Ziling would be jealous?
He was still unconscious, so he couldnt hear anything!
The burn on his back is more serious. This is the burn medicine and scar removal medicine. You can help him apply it a few more times.
Alright, he said.
Jing Xi took the ointment, but her fingers were trembling.
Lou Ziling shouldnt have suffered such a serious injury. When the car ident happened, she was safe and sound. This only proved that he was injured to protect her.
When in danger, people would instinctively choose to protect themselves.
But he didn t.
After mu Sen checked Lou Zilings physical condition, he left. Jing Xiy beside Lou Ziling and quietly cried.
She hadnt seen him for more than two years. She thought that Lou Ziling had forgotten about her.
It turned out that there wasn t.
He did care about her and saw her life as more important than himself.
He must have been desperate and angry when the Lou Corporation went bankrupt.
However, she was not by his side at that time.
He had probably been nning to enter the Li family for a long time. He should have seeded soon, but her intrusion had disrupted his n.
Jing Xi was a little upset. She wanted Lou Ziling to wake up so that she could apologize to him.
Then, she would scold him for leaving her behind and disappearing for so long!
A weekter, Lou Ziling woke up, but Jing Xi had already forgotten what she had wanted to say. She just kept crying.
Lou Ziling took a while to recover before she remembered what had happened.
He was actually woken up by the pain. His back was burning with pain, and his head felt like it had exploded. His left leg not only hurt, but it was also itchy.
He knew that his leg was broken when he got into the car ident, but he had been holding it in and did not tell Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling smiled bitterly. She had been pretending to beme in a wheelchair, but now she didnt have to pretend anymore.
Jing Xi was crying andughing at the same time. She grabbed Lou Zilings hand and asked,Do you want some water?
Yes.
It took Lou Ziling a lot of effort to make a sound. His voice became hoarse and unpleasant.
He couldnt help but smile bitterly again. He had been taking medicine to make his voice hoarse, so he didnt need to take medicine now!
Jing Xi adjusted Lou Zilings bed frame and helped him up. Seeing his pained expression, she couldnt help but feel sorry for him.You have a burn on your back. Does it hurt?
Lou Ziling didnt say anything. He felt pain all over his body, not just his back. It was as if his body didnt belong to him anymore.
He took a few sips of water from the cup that Jing Xi had brought to his lips, and his forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat.
He was surrounded by pain, and even drinking water was difficult.
He closed his eyes for a while, then opened them and asked,How many days have I been unconscious?
Its been a week!
Lou Ziling frowned. So long? He didnt know if Li Jing was doing well.
The car ident hade too suddenly, and he hadnt made proper arrangements to deal with Li Jing.
Im getting discharged tomorrow. Can I borrow your phone?
Youre still very weak. How are you going to get out of the hospital? Jing Xi asked.
She held her phone tightly and refused to let Lou Ziling use it.
If he wanted the phone, he must have asked his men to pick him up!
Was he looking for death by being discharged from the hospital?
Ive been missing for a week, so it must be chaotic there. I have to go back, give me the phone!
What are you going back for? Jing Xis eyes were red. Cant you just give up on the Li family?
No,
Lou Ziling gave her a clear answer.
Back then, he had given up on the entire Lou Corporation. He had worked so hard for so long, and tens of billions of assets had fallen into Li Jings hands. What was his purpose?
He was going to devour the entire Li family!
Moreover, Li Jing had almost killed him and Jing Xi. He couldnt just let this go.

Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi, who had grown up in luxury, could not understand Lou Zilings ambition.
She didnt want Lou Ziling to leave her. She didnt need Lou Ziling to be rich. She just wanted him to stay by her side.
If you want to rebuild thepany, I will ask my father and brother to invest in it. Family Jing will support you fully and you dont need to take the risk to bring down family li.
Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xi and didnt speak for a while.
To develop with the Jing family?
Then he would never be able to raise his head again!
Would Jing Yichen be at ease to leave his daughter in the hands of a man who had relied on family Jing for his career?
His physical condition was not particrly good. After saying a few words, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
However, Lou Ziling would be woken up by the pain after sleeping for a while. She would go back to sleep after drinking some water.
Jing Xi saw that he was in too much pain and was worried that he would return to the Li family as soon as he woke up, so she asked mu Sen to give him an anesthetic.
After two days, Lou Zilings physical condition improved significantly.
However, when Jing Xi woke up that night, Lou Ziling had already disappeared from the bed.
She stomped her feet in anger. Was his body so strong now? Even the anesthetic had no effect on him!
Jing Xi went home in anger. Shangguan ning was still awake. Seeing her daughters face, she asked with a smile,What, youre willing to go home? I thought you were going back to city W with Lou Ziling!
Hmph, youreughing at me!
Jing Xi snorted and rubbed herself against Shangguan nings arms like a child. She muttered,Mom, I think he actually likes me, but hes always avoiding me on purpose. Am I that scary?
My daughter is loved by everyone, how is she scary?
Shangguan ning had a gentle smile on her face. She was more certain than Jing Xi that Lou Ziling liked Jing Xi, and it was a love beyond life.
Jing Rui had told Lou Ziling everything that had happened at the scene of the car ident. If Lou Ziling had been selfish, Jing Xi would have been the one in the car instead of him.
The most precious love in the world was to love you like your life.
Lou Ziling had done it.
Xixi, I have a good idea. Do you want to try it? she asked.
Jing Xis eyes lit up.What idea?
Her mother usually looked gentle and let her father decide everything. She never got involved in those messy things and lived more freely than anyone else.
But when she came up with a n to set someone up, she was even more evil than Jing Yichen.
The mother and daughter were whispering in the living room in the middle of the night. Jing Yichen shook his head helplessly. The devil and the little devil were both involved. Who would be the one to suffer?
Jing Xi had never met a person who could suppress her all her life, and now she finally met a rival!
Jing Yichen suddenly felt relieved. He had always been afraid that no one could protect Jing Xi, but now he felt that his daughters future was not a problem.
A few dayster, the news of the marriage between family Jing and family li had spread all over A city.
The marriage between two powerful families had already caused a hugemotion and attention, even though it had not been confirmed yet.
Jing Xi was the only unmarried woman in the Jing family.
Although there were two in the Li family, Li Jing was a woman, and the only man was the half-disabled Li Xiao!
It was said that the little princess of family Jing had been the Apple of her parents eyes since she was a child. She was not only smart, but also beautiful.
And Li Xiao?
Not only was he disfigured, but he was also crippled!
Moreover, Li Xiao and Li Jing were fighting each other for the Li familys inheritance. It was still unknown if he could inherit the familys property in the future.
Family Jing was going to marry their daughter to Li Xiao?
Was he crazy?
Had all the men in the world died?
Lou Ziling sat in a wheelchair and slowly walked through the tall pine and cypress trees.
He had already heard the rumors about the marriage between the Jing family and the Li family. He was sure that the rumors were not spread by his people. The only person who dared to do so was Jing Xi!
However, it was undeniable that this had brought him huge benefits.
Some of Li Jings supporters had already begun to show their loyalty to him.
Lou Ziling smiled bitterly. He felt that he would never be able to escape from Jing Xis grasp.
Marry her?
He didnt even dare to think about it in the past.
Even now, he still found it unbelievable.
But for some reason, every time he thought of her, his heart would soften.
When he thought of how she had once said that she was all grown up and that they could get married, his fingers would tremble with nervousness.
Lou Ziling wasnt sure if it was just a spur of the moment thing, but he knew that he would never fall for another girl in his life.
When he left A city, he was determined and determined.
But now, his thoughts were overflowing. He ate, slept, and did things. His mind was filled with Jing Xis shadow.
Hi, young master Li! Youre going to hit a tree!
A crisp sound pulled Lou Ziling back from his thoughts. He turned his head in disbelief and saw the figure in the depths of his heart standing under a tall pine tree. Her long dress was touching the ground and her long hair was dancing in the wind. She was as beautiful as a fairy.
Lou Ziling was wearing a mask to hide the smile on his face.
But Jing Xi walked up to him and took off his mask. Looking at the other pale mask, she smiled and said,What should I do? Im still very handsome with such a big scar on my face!
As she spoke, she kissed Lou Ziling on the lips.
Were getting engaged next month. Remember to give me a present! Luo Feiyang gave tan Ruyi such a big pink diamond ring. I want a big one too! The Li family is so rich, you have to buy me the biggest one in the world!
What?
Lou Ziling couldnt react in time. Who said that they were getting engaged?
Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyi are together?
Jing Xi poked Lou Zilings leg in disgust.When will your legs recover? I cant even sit on yourp if I want to!
Lou Ziling pulled her hand away.Stop it. Who asked you toe? Its not safe here, go back to A city!
I dont want to! I want to be with you! Since youre disabled now, you cant beat me. If you drive me away, Ill strip you naked!
Marriage is not a game. Dont mess around. Go back and ask your parents. They definitely wont agree to us being together.
Who said that?
Jing Xis eyes were curved, and her face was full of satisfaction and happiness.My mom said that shes very supportive of me being with young master Li. Besides that, I even went to United States. Guess what happened?
Lou Ziling frowned United States?
She couldnt have gone to his house, right?
Jing Xi looked at him and frowned. She patted his face and said,Youre right! When Uncle Lou Heard that I was going to be his daughter-inw, he happily gave me a big red packet! He even gave me the Jade bangle passed down in the Lou family. Look, does it look good?
Chapter 1563
Chapter 1563: Fianc
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi stretched out her fair and delicate wrist, and an emerald green bangle was revealed, making her skin look even more radiant and shiny.
Lou Ziling looked at the Jade bangle that had been worn on his mothers wrist for more than ten years. His frown deepened.
The bangle came in a pair. It was an antique passed down in the Lou family for many years. One was given to Lou ruofei, and the other was kept by tan Zhen, saying that she would give it to her future daughter-inw.
Jing Xi had gone straight to his house and was officially recognized by his parents!
Lou Ziling massaged her forehead. She was having a headache because of Jing Xi.
There was nothing in the world that could stop her!
She went to Lou Mingyangs ce and said that she wanted to marry him. One could imagine how shocked and happy Lou Mingyang would be!
Fortunately, Lou Mingyang didnt have a heart disease. Otherwise, he would have been so happy that his heart attack would have attacked!
When the Lou group went bankrupt that year, Lou Mingyang refused to acknowledge him as his son. He did not allow him to step into the house, saying that he had embarrassed his ancestors.
He had always been loyal to family Jing and was proud of being Jing Yichens subordinate.
If he could have Jing Xi as his daughter-inw, Lou Mingyang would be so happy that he would be cured of all his illnesses! She would not stop him from going home anymore.
This method was really ruthless!
Lou Ziling felt that this was not Jing Xis style. She probably did not think so far ahead. If she took down Lou Mingyang and tan Zhen, even if he did not agree, there was no way out!
If he dared to refuse the marriage, Lou Mingyang would really not acknowledge him as his son anymore!
Jing Xi pushed Lou Zilings wheelchair and strolled among the dense pine and cypress trees. Her voice was light and happy.The first time I came here, I was walking in this forest with Luo Feiyang. I thought it was really scary. Why do I feel like the scenery is so good today?
Lou Ziling didnt say anything, but he also felt that the scenery today was quite good.
The dead silent forest suddenly had a touch of bright color. Jing Xis Orange knitted dress warmed his lonely soul.
Lou Ziling had to restrain herself to stop herself from standing up and holding her in her arms.
Xixi, you should stay away from me. We can have a good talk after the fight here is over. If we rush things now, youll regret it in the future.
Regret?
Jing Xi thought about it carefully and said,anyway, I dont regret it now. If you dont treat me well and always go out and drink, I may regret it. But it doesnt matter. We can just get a divorce! Of course, before we get divorced, Ill definitely beat you up until youre disabled!
Lou Ziling couldnt help but shake her head. She was the only one who could be so violent and direct.
He was the only one who dared to marry such a ruthless and domineering woman.
You fought with Li Jing over the inheritance, but it didnt affect our marriage! You do your thing and Ill get married. You dont need to prepare anything. Since I was born, my mother has already prepared everything I need to get married! Im rich, young master Li. You married a rich woman!
Lou Ziling did not know what to do with her. She had blocked all his escape routes.
However, he was not ready yet.
He had thought that he would spend the rest of his life alone. From the moment he left her, he had no intention of getting married.
His life was not stable yet, how could he step into the hall of marriage in such a hurry!
Lou Ziling was silent all the way, and Jing Xi was lost in the forest again.
No, I cant get out every time Ie in. Tell me how to get out, or were going to starve to death in the forest! Oh, I see. No wonder these pine and cypress trees are so tall and dense. It turns out that they are using the human bodies that starved to death in the forest as nutrients!
Lou Ziling didnt know whether tough or cry. The Li familys forest had aplicated eight-trigram array. People who came in would have an illusion, so they couldnt leave. However, no one would starve to death in there!
This wasnt an underground organization that killed people without spilling blood. Jing Xi must have read too many ghost stories!
He showed Jing Xi the way, and the two of them finally walked out.
Surrounded by pine and cypress trees, there were many exquisite andplicated ancient-looking small buildings. Jing Xi had been to Lou Zilings building, but she had not been to the other buildings.
With great interest, she pushed Lou Ziling to take a look. Then, she realized that all the houses were better than the one Lou Ziling was living in.
Ah, the one youre living in is too simple. When we get married, well live in the biggest one! Its on the third floor. After we give birth, hell have a ce to y!
Jing Xi looked excited and suddenly giggled.This ce is much better than our house! Our entire neighborhoodbined isnt as big as this ce. We can buy a pony for our son to ride!
Lou Zilings expression suddenly became gentle.
She really wanted to marry him, didnt she? she had even thought about having children in the future!
But in his heart, she was still a child!
A cold and sinister voice suddenly rang out from behind the two of them,Everything here is surnamed li! You two, get out!
Jing Xi was shocked. She turned around and was surprised to see Li Jing.Aiya, Miss Li, youre still alive!
Congrattions, miss Jing, youre alive too! Li Jing said, her eyes dark.
Im just lucky. My fianc risked his life to save me in a car ident, so I gave my body to him! I dont know who was so ruthless to find a driver who wasnt afraid of death to hit us with a truck. In the end, the driver lost his life for nothing, but Im still alive and well!
Jing Xis smile was bright, but Li Jing was grinding her teeth.
When she heard that Jing Xi and Lou Ziling were nning to upy this ce in the future, she was so angry that her lungs were about to explode!
Although she didnte back here often and used to despise this ce for being too gloomy, she would never allow anyone to upy it!
Ha! This entire Manor is under my personal name. Although you are lucky enough to survive, dont even think about taking a de of grass away! Lou Ziling, do you think that you can deceive everyone by doing a fake DNA test? Im telling you, its impossible!
Li Jing called Lou Zilings real name, but Lou Ziling remained calm. She didnt seem surprised or uneasy.
Third sister, you should take your medicine. Your mental illness has worsened. My surname is li, dont call me by the wrong name next time. Butler, take her down to take her medicine. Why did she run out without taking her medicine? All the guards today will be punished!
The Butler brought some people and hurriedly pulled Li Zhi away.
Li Jing didnt struggle. She was in a much better situation now. When Lou Ziling got into a car ident, she took the opportunity to destroy many of his forces and bribed more people. The situation was very favorable for her.
She turned around and looked at Jing Xi, a strange smile on her lips.
This girl could always bring her a turn for the better!
Married?
Haha, lets get married!
Wouldnt it be interesting if a wedding turned into a funeral?

Chapter 1564: No physiological needs?
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi decided to stay in the Li familys Manor. She chose a small building next to Lou Zilings courtyard and went there every day.
Lou Ziling didnt have time to respond to her. He had been in contact with the Li familys businesses for a long time, but most of them were now in Li Jings hands.
Even if he controlled Li Jing, these properties wouldnt fall into her hands.
Killing Li Jing was even more out of the question. If she died, Lou Ziling wouldnt be able to find out who was managing the Li familys properties.
The Lou Corporation had been destroyed by Li Jings underhanded means. Tens of billions of assets were in her hands, but she didnt know which ount they were in.
Therefore, she had to stay alive.
In the past, Lou Ziling didnt mind wasting time with her. He had plenty of time and could stand loneliness. But now, with Jing Xi by his side, he couldnt waste time with Li Jing.
His identity could not be exposed before he devoured the Li family, or he would lose all his supporters.
Lou Ziling was not often in the manor. Most of the time, he was outside trying to gain power and excavate Li Jings assets.
It was usuallyte at night when they returned to the manor to rest.
Every night when he came back, Jing Xi would basically wait for him in the courtyard.
Lou Ziling lived in the Li familys Manor and had too many secrets. He would never sleep in the bedroom that could be easily plotted against.
There was a secret room in his courtyard that no one else had ever entered.
However, Jing Xi strolled around his yard countless times every day and found his secret room.
Lou Ziling couldnt stand her pestering and brought her in.
The secret room was located underground and had arge area. Moreover, it was decorated in a rich and magnificent way, which waspletely different from the ancient style above.
Jing Xi nced at the luxurious sofa and bed, and asked,Lou Ziling, you didnt pick this, did you?
Lou Ziling liked simple things, so everything here must have been arranged by someone else.
And it was definitely a woman.
However, this woman was definitely not Li Jing. Although Li Zhi was vicious, she had good taste. These messy things might look dazzling, but in fact, they gave off the feeling of a nouveau riche. Li Jing would never buy these things.
Lou Ziling took off her specially made dark blue contact lenses and said,Yes, no.
Jing Xi walked up to him and saw that he had taken off his sses to reveal his dark brown eyes. She realized that he had deliberately worn contact lenses to change the color of his eyes.
She looked at therge pile of contact lenses and masks on the table and couldnt help but ask him,Who helped you buy these things?
Its the same person who picked the sofa.
A woman? Jing Xi raised her eyebrows.
Yes, Lou Ziling nodded.
Youre my fianc, Jing Xi said unhappily.You should stay away from women in the future! If you need anything, Ill help you pick and buy it!
Lou Ziling refused directly.No, shes from the ck market. She specializes in some side business. Youre not suitable for her.
Do I have to buy everything from the ck market? Your bed, sofa, nket, clothes, and shoes were all bought from the ck market? I thought you didnt like these colorful things? Why do you want everything she bought for you?
Lou Ziling had been running around for a whole day and had not fully recovered yet. At the moment, she was exhausted and did not have much energy to deal with Jing Xi.
Moreover, he didnt want Jing Xi to stay here forever. It was far safer than city A.
Ill get someone to send you home tomorrow. Donte back anymore.
Lou Ziling said this almost every day, and Jing Xi was used to it. She had finally found Lou Ziling, so how could she leave?
Hmph! Now the whole world knows that we are getting engaged and you are the son-inw of family Jing. No woman would want to marry you unless you give up family li.
Jing Xi snorted. She had already blocked Lou Zilings way out. She didnt believe that anyone would dare to snatch her away!
Lou Ziling found her angry look funny.
He had nothing left, and she actually didnt care?
Did she think that everyone was like her, thinking that he looked handsome even when he was wearing that mask with a scar?
Who would be willing to marry someone who was crippled and disfigured?
Lou Ziling shook her head and got out of the wheelchair. She walked slowly to the bed andy down to rest.
His leg had not recovered yet, but he could still walk a few steps.
He let Jing Xi wander around in his secret chamber. He had no secrets to hide from her anyway.
Lou Ziling was so tired that she fell asleep very quickly.
Jing Xi quietly climbed into his bed andy down beside him. Looking at his handsome and familiar face, her heart was beating fast.
He was too good-looking. Even if he was sleeping with his eyes closed, he still had a Fatal Attraction.
Sleeping in the secret chamber, he removed all his disguises and wore simple light red loose pajamas. He was less lonely and cold, but more gentle.
Jing Xi had never seen him wear bright colors before. Now she knew that he looked ridiculously handsome in red.
She sneaked up and kissed Lou Zilings thin lips.
Lou Ziling opened her eyes slowly and said in a low voice,Xixi, dont mess around. Go back to your room and sleep.
Jing Xi was shocked and avoided his eyes.Oh, I-I-I I didnt mean to wake you up. You can continue sleeping, I wont move!
Jing Xis face was burning hot, and sheined in a low voice,Youre too vignt. I just touched you lightly, how did you wake up?
How was she going to kiss him secretly in the future?
Cant you just pretend to be asleep for a while? Why did he open his eyes?
If I wasnt alert, would I have lived until now?
Lou Zilings voice was very low. It was supposed to be a questioning tone, but when she said it, it sounded like love.
He didnt know what was wrong with him. He could be cruel to everyone, but not to Jing Xi.
If Jing Xi didnt take the initiative, he could still control himself. But once she took the initiative, all the cells in his body would be active and he would want to eat her!
But He had met a girl who never knew what it meant to retreat. Jing Xis life philosophy was to face difficulties and move forward!
In her dictionary, there was no such word as retreat.
She snuggled under the nket and rubbed against Lou Zilings arms. She hugged his waist and asked in a low voice,Dont all men have physiological needs? Why dont you have it? Or did you find another woman to solve it?
Lou Zilings mind went nk. He almost tore Jing Xis clothes off and pressed her under his body.
How dare this girl say anything!
How did she know that he didnt have any physical needs?
Of course he had it! It wasnt an ordinary one!
If she kept teasing him with such an innocent face, she would get herself into trouble one day!

Hey, what have you been doing for the past two years? Will there be any obstacles in that area if you always sit in a wheelchair?
Doubt his mans ability?
Lou Ziling was so angry that sheughed.
He smacked Jing Xis butt.Dont talk nonsense. Go to sleep! He said.
Jing Xi found that Lou Ziling seemed to like spanking her, but it made her feel very ashamed.
She had never been spanked before!
However, when Lou Ziling hit her, she was overbearing and doting, which made her feel sweet.
She felt like she was crazy. She was spanked by him, yet she still felt so happy!
She protested,Youre not allowed to hit me, youre hurting me!
Lou Ziling knew how much strength she had used. He had only used a little bit of strength and was not really willing to hit her. When he heard her protest, he thought she was acting coquettishly and patted her perky butt again.
It felt good to the touch and Lou Ziling was no longer sleepy. She wanted to Pat him a few more times.
Jing Xi was hit again, and this time, it was even lighter. It didnt feel like a hit, but more like a caress!
Her face turned red and she buried her head in Lou Zilings chest. She used him of his crimes. Youre bullying me!
Lou Ziling subconsciously hugged Jing Xi, but when he realized what he had done, he was reluctant to let go.
He pressed Jing Xi against his body, letting her stick to him intimately, showing his desire for her.
Jing Xi said it casually, as if she understood mens desires, but that was just theoretical knowledge. She had almost no practical experience!
She panicked as Lou Ziling held her down. She wanted to escape but Lou Ziling held her down tightly.
Youre thinking of running now?
Lou Ziling whispered into Jing Xis ear, his breath so hot that Jing Xis white ears turned red.Its toote!
He rubbed between Jing Xis legs through her clothes, scaring Jing Xi so much that she didnt dare to move.
Lou Ziling saw that she was afraid and restrained her desire. She lowered her head and kissed her gently.I wont scare you anymore. Dont talk nonsense in the future, you hear me?
Oh. Jing Xi nodded and muttered.
She was a little afraid of the cruel Lou Ziling, but she couldnt bear to leave his warm and broad arms. His body exuded a faint, cold fragrance of shower gel, which made Jing Xi infatuated.
She was worried that Lou Ziling would chase her away. However, she didnt know why he didnt let her leave this time. He just hugged her and slept with her.
Jing Xi didnt want to sleep at all. Being held in Lou Zilings arms, listening to his even breathing and strong heartbeat, she felt very happy!
He had never been willing to hug her to sleep in the past. No matter how she begged him, he would not agree. Why did he change his mind today?
Lou Ziling closed her eyes, but she couldnt fall asleep.
He didnt want to change, but his body didnt listen to his brain at all. His desire for Jing Xi was beyond anything.
Fortunately, Jing Xi didnt move again, or his willpower wouldve copsed.
He yearned more than she did to hug her to sleep. This was one of the things he wanted to do the most in the past few years.
He had waited for her to grow up. He had waited for too long!
His leg bones hadnt fully grown back, so it was a little painful, but now he couldnt feel the pain anymore. The blood flow in his body was elerating!
She seemed to be more effective than any painkiller.
After some time, Jing Xi felt that her arm around Lou Zilings waist was numb. She thought that Lou Ziling must have fallen asleep. She moved in his arms and looked up at him. Seeing that his eyes were still closed, she could not help but sigh in relief.
After that, she moved every now and then, trying to find afortable position in Lou Zilings arms.
It was a pity that she had never had the experience of sleeping in someones arms in the past twenty years. She couldnt find afortable position no matter what.
Lou Ziling felt a little helpless. He was always alert when he was sleeping. Even if he was a pig, he would be woken up by Jing Xis movements.
In the past, if someone disturbed his sleep, he would be very angry, but now, there was only gentleness in his heart.
He adjusted the position of his arm to make Jing Xi morefortable, and wrapped his other arm around her slender waist. He asked in a low voice,Are you feeling better?
Jing Xi blinked and pouted.Did I wake you up again?
Yes.
Lou Zilings voice was filled with gentleness.You cant sleep? Why dont you sleep on the bed and Ill sleep on the sofa?
Don t, don t!
Jing Xi immediately shook her head. She hugged Lou Ziling tightly and pleaded,Dont separate from me. Im willing even if I cant sleep. I like this. I feel so happy
The softest part of Lou Zilings heart was touched by her. She kissed her gently.Silly
Whats so good about him that he could get her favor and love?
Lou Zilings kiss was brief, but Jing Xi felt disappointed. She thought his kiss was too short.
Lou Ziling noticed her disappointment. She ran her finger across her lips and lowered her head to kiss her again.
This time, his kiss was deep and overbearing, almost taking all the air in Jing Xis mouth. He twisted and turned, trying his best to satisfy her heart.
Jing Xi hugged Lou Zilings neck and felt like she was suffocating.
As soon as Lou Ziling let go of her, she tried her best to breathe. However, just as she recovered, Lou Zilings lips touched hers again.
Her body went limp and her mind went nk. She called his name in a low and muffled voice,Ziling
Lou Ziling responded to her by kissing her even more crazily. He pressed her under his body and held her hand, interlocking their fingers.
Lou Ziling stopped after a long time.
His chest heaved up and down violently, and the deep love in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
Jing Xi held his face and asked him gently,You like me too, right?
Yes.
Lou Ziling replied andy down beside Jing Xi. She held her in her arms and said in a low voice,I like it. Ive liked him for a long time!
Jing Xis eyes were full of joy. She knew it. Lou Ziling liked her!
She raised her head and bit Lou Zilings chin. She said softly,You can only like me, no one else!
The little girls habit of biting people had not changed. Lou Zilings chin was a little itchy from her bite. Even her heart was itchy.
Other than her, no one else would be so persistent about him. After he fell in love with her, he had no other heart to like anyone else.
He knew very well that he would not have a change of heart. He was only worried about Jing Xi.
He was afraid that she was too young and didnt know what love was. After he fell in love with her, she would walk away and be in love with someone else.
Xixi, if youve decided, you cant change your mind!
Decided on what?
Ive decided to be my woman!
Chapter 1566
Chapter 1566: No bottom line
Trantor: 549690339
To be Lou Zilings woman?
Jing Xis heart jumped, and her fair face was filled with shyness.Ive already decided!
Lou Ziling gently tucked the loose hair on her forehead behind her ear and said in a gentle voice,In that case, youre not allowed to have song Xin as your delivery man in the future. Im a very possessive person. No other man is allowed to touch my woman.
Jing Xi felt a little regretful. He was indeed bothered by this matter!
If she had known earlier, she wouldnt have joked that she liked song Xin and felt that he was handsome!
Hes just an ordinary friend. Youre overthinking it!She toot and said unhappily.
Lou Zilings voice was tender and loving.I wont stop you from having friends of the opposite sex. I approve of Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan, but I cant stop song Xin. If you have a few more friends like song Xin, I wont be able to stand it.
The difference between song Xin, Luo Feiyang, and Ji moxuan was that he would be extremely concerned about Jing Xi. He always liked to touch Jing Xis body. He was too intimate with Jing Xi!
Even an arrogant and domineering young master like Luo Feiyang would respect Jing Xi very much. He would never think of taking advantage of Jing Xi. Even if he pursued her, he would be open and honest.
Whats more, his heart was no longer with Jing Xi. Lou Ziling was naturally at ease that Jing Xi had a friend of the opposite sex.
Jing Xi didnt feel that song Xin was any different. In her heart, everyone was the same except Lou Ziling. At most, song Xin might be more attentive and thoughtful because he had acted in too many TV shows. When they got out of the car together, he would hold her hand, which was more gentlemanly.
Ive already stopped contacting song Xin. He set me up and Ive already taught him a lesson. Hes currently overseas!
Yes, sure.
Lou Ziling rested her chin on Jing Xis forehead and said in a low voice,Go to sleep. Well sleep together today.
He couldnt sleep like this tomorrow. He was hugging a fragrant and soft body, but he couldnt eat it. This was definitely an inhumane torture to him!
He wanted to take off all her clothes every second and be one with her!
But he couldnt do it now. Not to mention that his leg was still fractured, even if it was fully recovered, he still couldnt bear to have her when Jing Xi was still a little resistant.
She had no experience, and neither did he.
He needed to learn from herter and slowly try it out with Jing Xi to make herfortable and happy.
Lou Ziling and Jing Xi didnt fall asleep until the sun rose in the East. They didnt wake up until noon.
Lou Ziling felt Jing Xi moving in his arms and pulled her into his arms.Youre awake? Its already noon, get up for lunch.
Jing Xizilyid in his arms and kissed his chin.This secret chamber is dark and I cant see the sky outside. I thought it was night time!
Its dark and you still insist oning in. Not only is this secret room dark and sunless, the entire Li family manor is a dangerous cage.
But with you here, Im happy to live in a cage. Otherwise, even if I live in the best vi, Ill feel empty.
Jing Xi smiled.And this is the best manor in the country. Even the manors France dont have such a good view andnd area. Not everyone cane to this cage!
Lou Ziling couldnt help butugh. When did this girl be so good at talking?
She was the youngdy of family Jing. What kind of ce had she not seen?
As far as he knew, family Jing had even bought an entire Ind overseas for their vacation.
Lou Ziling made up his mind. Even if he couldnt get all the properties of the Li family, he had to at least get the manor. Otherwise, he would lose all his confidence in front of the Jing family.
His time was limited, and there were manyplicated things to do. He only held Jing Xi for a short while, and then ignored her protests and pulled her out of bed.
After washing up, Lou Ziling put on a disguise and took Jing Xi out of the secret room to the dining room on the ground floor for breakfast.
Lou Zilings men had been waiting for him for a long time. They heaved a sigh of relief when they saw him.
Everyone had been following Lou Ziling for a long time. This was the first time he had woken up sote since he came to the Li family.
Fortunately, everyone knew Jing Xis identity. They knew that she had an unparalleled power behind her, which could bring Lou Ziling the strongest support, so no one dared to question Jing Xi.
If it was someone with a weak background, they would have been called a femme fatale.
Lou Ziling went out after lunch, while Jing Xi slept for a few hours. She yawned and went back to her own house to catch up on sleep.
Family Lis enterprise was different from family Jing S. Family Jing had developed arge enterprise to drive other industries and form an industrial chain, while family li was involved in various industries and there was no obvious connection between each industry.
This undoubtedly greatly increased the difficulty of control. If it was not controlled well, the situation of the smallpany breaking away from the Li family could happen.
However, the Li familys strength was that they could control all the smallpanies and few people betrayed them.
Lou Ziling had been investigating Li Jing for a long time. After he had the idea of annexing the Li family, he had spent a lot of energy and money to find out more about the Li family.
However, two years had passed and he had gained nothing.
It was human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. How could everyone be devoted to Li Jing?
She must have a huge secret that he didnt know.
During the day, Lou Ziling dug out anotherpany that belonged to the Li family and received it under his name. He calcted in his heart and soon frowned.
Thepany he currently controlled only had a turnover of more than five billion Yuan, and its profitability was average. It was still far from his original Lou group. Thesepanies were far from being able to make up for his losses.
Li Jing had forced him to sell his house and car back then!
Now, it was his turn to deal with Li Jing.
Lou Ziling returned to the manor and went to the room where Li Jing was being held. Her expression was cold.If you want to live, then hand over all of the Li familys assets. Otherwise, dont me me for being ruthless!
Li Jing didnt seem to realize that she was being imprisoned. She leaned against a wooden chair and sipped on a cup of hot tea. She looked much morefortable than Lou Ziling, who was covered in dust.
Why should I hand over the Li familys business to you? Everything in the Li family is mine. Dont even think about taking a single thing away from me! Lou, you cant be so shameless. You bullied a weak woman like me and coveted the Li familys property. What kind of man are you?
Bottom line?
This kind of woman actually had the nerve to tell him that she had no bottom line?
If she had any humanity, she would not have forced his thriving group to go bankrupt, and she would not have forced him to sell his ce!
He changed his name, wore a mask every day, and pretended to be another person. He lived a life that was neither human nor ghost. Wasnt it all because of her?
If it wasnt for his vignce and his strength, would he still be alive today?
Lou Zilings expression was cold under the dark golden Mask. He waved at his subordinates.Li Jing, Ill let you see how bottomless I am!

Chapter 1567: Did my little white rabbit grow bigger?
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling didnt like to use torture.
He would either let people live or let them die a quick death. This was his way of doing things.
But Li Jing couldn t. She couldnt die, so he could only use torture!
There were many ways to torture a person. Lou Ziling was not an expert in this area, but he had hired countless elite assassins. There would always be some who were ruthless.
However, the result was beyond Lou Zilings expectations. No matter what kind of torture was used, Li Jing could withstand it!
Lou Ziling was hiding in the dark, thinking silently.
Ordinary people would not be able to withstand the torture of these assassins. The physical pain would directly lead to a mental breakdown, but Li Jing seemed to feel no pain!
What was Li Jings identity?
It seemed that it was not a coincidence that she had killed all the brothers and sisters in the Li family and taken control of the huge andplicated family business. It was inevitable.
Lou Ziling saw that Li Jing had finally fainted and didnt ask anyone to wake her up.
His method was not very effective. Unless Li Jing felt that it was too painful, she would asionally take out a smallpany and throw it to him.
Even if Li Jing woke up again, the effect would still be the same.
Frowning, Lou Ziling returned to her own courtyard. When she entered the living room, she saw that Jing Xi had ced a lot of things in the living room. The living room was filled with a stench that could kill people.
Jing Xi heard his voice and turned around happily.Ziling, youre back!
She was wearing a big gas mask and it looked a little funny. Lou Ziling said helplessly,What are you doing? Are you going to destroy my courtyard?
The smell was so bad that it made people want to vomit bile!
She had protected herself well. Poor Lou Ziling, who was still hungry, suddenly didnt want to eat anything after smelling the smell.
Ive asked someone to buy me all kinds of materials to develop some small gadgets!
When I was at home, my father despised me for being too destructive, Jing Xi said.He didnt even let me do these things, and my research ability deteriorated! But now, this ce is so big, I can do whatever I want!
Lou Ziling was dizzy from the stench. She couldnt stand it anymore. She stood up and pulled Jing Xi out of the room. She didnt even care about the wheelchair.
When they reached the courtyard, it was finally much better.
Lou Ziling smacked Jing Xis butt and said,Why dont you study it in your own courtyard?
Aiya, if I make the smell in my courtyard so strong, how can I sleep?
Oh, so youre here to harm me? Dont I need to sleep?
Jing Xi giggled. She took off her gas mask, tiptoed, and kissed Lou Ziling on the lips. Then she put her arms around his neck and said softly,Dont you have a secret room? if you really can t, you can sleep in my room! My bed is very big, you can do it!
No, Lou Ziling shook her head.
She only knew how to seduce him!
When he left, she would be timid again!
She didnt even know how hard it was for him to endure it!
Hurry up and clean up the living room. I dont even dare to go in anymore! Your dad was right not to let you study these things at home!
She wondered how much Jing Yichen had been worried about to raise such a daughter.
When she was young, she was given the title of witch in the entire A city. It was obvious how many people she had harmed! The Jing family had lost countless buildings, and all the money they earned had been used to clean up Jing Xis mess.
If she had a daughter like her in the future, Lou Ziling felt that she might not be able to afford it.
Lou Ziling suddenlyughed.
Had he already considered so far ahead?
She had not married him yet, but he was already thinking about their future daughter.
Suddenly, Lou Ziling understood how Jing Yichen loved and indulged Jing Xi. If he had a daughter who was as beautiful and lovely as Jing Xi, he would also indulge his daughter.
What he liked was Jing Xis fearless character. He liked how she was not afraid of anything.
Jing Yichen was the one who had raised Jing Xi so well and kept all of her Frank nature.
Lou Ziling hugged Jing Xis waist and said in a low voice,Help me thank your father.
Jing Xi was confused.Thank him for what?
Ive never seen a man as far-sighted as him. Hes amazing, he indulges you, but he doesnt spoil you too much. He raised you into a unique girl, but now, youre mine! Thats why I have to thank him for everything hes done.
Was he Complimenting her?
Jing Xi toot. Why did he have to praise her so tactfully? if she wasnt smart, she would have suspected that Lou Ziling had fallen in love with her father.
However, Jing Yichen had a lot of opinions about Lou Ziling even though he had praised him so much.
My dad is usually a little cold, but when you see him in the future, dont take it seriously. He treats my brother and me the same way! He only smiles when hes with my mom, and the tone of his voice is different. You just have to conquer my mom, shell help us deal with my dad!
Lou Ziling burst intoughter. The rumor was true. Jing Yichen, the king of the business empire, was most afraid of his wife.
But judging from Jing Xis words, Jing Yichen didnt approve of him?
Although Lou Ziling had expected this, her heart still felt heavy.
He reached out his fingers and gently touched Jing Xis face. He felt that he still had a long way to go.
He needed at least the power of the Li family to protect Jing Xi. Even if she got into trouble in the future, he would be able to solve it without Jing Yichens help.
Xixi, I dont need your mothers help. If I cant get your fathers approval, it means that Im not qualified to marry you. Ill wait until he acknowledges me.
That wont do!
Jing Xi was against it. What if her father didnt approve of her in ten years?
She patted her chest with a smile.Dont worry, my mom supports us. With her around, my dad will definitely not object!
He grabbed Jing Xis waist and said through gritted teeth,Youre not allowed to do this in the future, especially not in front of men!
She bit her lip and whispered into Lou Zilings ear,Do you want to take a look?
Lou Ziling almost bit her own tongue.
He held Jing Xis waist tightly, the fire in his eyes dancing. He said in a hoarse voice,Xixi, youre ying with fire!
Chapter 1568
Chapter 1568: You are mine!
Trantor: 549690339
Wheres the fire? Jing Xi asked.Its raining a lot in the South. Did you put out the fire?
Lou Zilings heart softened when she heard her soft and tender voice.
His legs would hurt if he stood for a long time, but he would rather endure the pain than stand there and hold Jing Xi.
Thats right, in the South, even in winter, there would be continuous rain. W city was close to the coastline, so it had been raining these days and there was no sunlight.
However, Lou Ziling felt that the sun seemed to be shining brightly here. His happiness was infinitely magnified when Jing Xi was around.
He had the urge to give up everything and leave with Jing Xi to live the romantic life she liked.
Lou Ziling lowered her head and bit Jing Xis lips. She sucked on her lips and entangled with her.
He didnt know when he had started to love her to the bone.
His legs were in pain, his back was burnt, and his head had a few stitches, but he had never regretted protecting Jing Xi.
The moment the car ident happened, he instinctively wanted to take all the risks. Even if it meant death, he would not even frown.
He hugged Jing Xi tightly and whispered in her ear,Xixi, youre not allowed to leave me in the future. Youre not allowed to like anyone else. Youre mine
Lou Ziling rarely showed her emotions like this and rarely confessed.
Jing Xis heart trembled, and tears gushed out of her eyes. She hit Lou Zilings chest with her small fist.When did I ever leave you? Youre the one who didnt want me anymore. If I didnte looking for you, were you nning to ignore me for the rest of your life?
Lou Ziling let her hit him. She didnt want to use too much force anyway. It didnt hurt. Instead, it made him feel happy.
He wiped away Jing Xis tears, gently kissed the corner of her eye, and apologized in a low voice,Yes, its my fault, but I didnt abandon you. Im just afraid that the longer I spend time with you, the deeper Ill fall for you
He had indeed nned to never see Jing Xi again in the future.
He had thought that Jing Xi liked the new and hated the old. He had thought that he was just an insignificant passerby in her life.
His biggest weakness was his strong self-esteem. After finding out that Jing Xi might still be in love with someone else, he had let go of her in a fit of anger.
Jing Xi was being coaxed by Lou Ziling. She was crying and feeling very sweet.
She lived a good life, had outstanding looks, and had nock of suitors. She often received all kinds of gifts from bold subordinates in thepany.
However, Lou Ziling was the only one who truly loved her and doted on her.
What Lou Ziling liked was not her family background, not because her surname was Jing, and not because of her looks. He just liked her as a person.
In the past, Ji moxuan and Luo Feiyang pursued her only because her surname was Jing.
Only a fool like Lou Ziling would want to stay away from her just because her surname was Jing.
He refused to use the Jing familys power, and he refused to make use of her. It was only in the past two years that Jing Xi realized how strong his heart was and how pure his soul was.
She had always had a special liking for Lou Ziling. Perhaps she was attracted by his neither servile nor overbearing attitude. He was independent and decisive, which was unique among his peers.
The night was already veryte.
Jing Xi pushed Lou Ziling slowly from his yard to her own house.
Lou Zilings courtyard was filled with a foul smell because of her test subjects. It was not suitable for staying in.
In the living room, Lou Ziling stood up slowly and sat on the sofa. She patted the space beside her.Come here.
Jing Xi obediently sat down, leaned her head on his shoulder, and held his arm.Ziling, Im hungry. I want to eat spicy boiled fish, spicy crayfish. Anything is fine, just spicy!
Lou Ziling kissed her forehead.Since when did you like to eat such strong-vored food?
Its just that aftering here, your chefs like to add spiciness to their dishes. Ive eaten it a few times and Ive be addicted to it. I feel that the food is tasteless without chili.
Jing Xi was drooling. She used to eat light food, but now she realized that spicy food was better!
Her eyes sparkled as she touched her lower abdomen. She turned to Lou Ziling and asked,Sour and spicy girl, do you think I have a baby girl?
Lou Zilingughed at her words.Where did you get this little girl? I didnt do anythingst night!
He pinched Jing Xis chin and called the chef to cook for Jing Xi.
He was also hungry, so he could eat with Jing Xi.
Fortunately, Lou Zilings chef had gotten used to his young masters habit of eating supper at midnight. He had been waiting for his orders in the separate big kitchen and many things were ready.
However, there were no crayfish in the manor, which worried the chef.
He had been taking care of Lou Ziling for a long time and knew her preferences very well. He knew that the spicy crayfish was definitely not ordered by Lou Ziling.
Since there were no crayfish, he could only make spicy crabs and spicy fresh prawns. Besides the spicy boiled fish, he also made a few other spicy vegetables and a sweet corn soup. Then, he asked someone to send it to Lou Ziling.
Lou Zilings head started to hurt when she saw that so many dishes had been prepared.
If Jing Xi couldnt finish itter, she would stuff it into his mouth again, but he couldnt take anything too spicy.
Jing Xis eyes lit up like stars when she saw the delicious food. She didnt care about crayfish at all. As long as it was spicy, she was fine with it.
The chefs spicy crab was so delicious that Jing Xi wanted to eat the shell!
Lou Ziling sat beside her and started to peel the crab shell for her.Crabs are cold. Dont eat too much. If you like it, you can cook it in two days.
Jing Xi nodded.Okay, I know. Peel it quickly.
Okay, she said, but she didnt eat any less. She felt that Lou Ziling was too slow, so she started eating.
Most of the crabs she had eaten in the past were steamed, and she had never eaten spicy ones. She decided to eat them for at least three days!
Jing Xi was soon full. Seeing that there was still a lot of food on the table, she put some into Lou Zilings mouth with her chopsticks.You should eat more. I think youve lost weight!
Lou Zilings tears were about to fall. He didnt understand why Jing Xi looked so happy when she was eating, but he felt like his mouth was on fire when he was eating!
Tears welled up in his eyes, and Jing Xi looked at him in surprise. When she realized that it was because of the spiciness, sheughed so hard that she could not stand straight.
She had never seen Lou Ziling cry before. He didnt even cry when he was seriously injured in the car ident. She didnt expect him to cry because of the spiciness!
All of a sudden, Jing Xi felt that Lou Zilings coldness had disappeared and he had be a little cute!
Chapter 1569
Chapter 1569: The little woman who raised him
Trantor: 549690339
You dont usually eat spicy food?
Lou Ziling took a big gulp of the sweet soup to suppress the burning sensation.Yes, but todays dish is especially spicy. Ill have to deduct the chefs bonus!
How can that be? I think the chef did a very good job. You should give him more bonuses!
She used her long and fair fingers to peel the prawns for Lou Ziling. After peeling one, she brought it to his lips.Open your mouth!
Lou Ziling opened her mouth and bit her finger. She almost ate it.
She would even peel prawns for him to eat!
Lou Ziling was ttered. He was probably the only person in the world who had such treatment.
Jing Xi seemed to have seen through his thoughts. She smiled and said,Ive only peeled it for you. My parents and brother didnt even get this treatment!
It was not that Jing Xi refused to peel the shrimp for her family, but that Jing Yichen and Jing Rui were too obsessed with cleanliness. They would not eat it if she peeled it with her hands.
As for Shangguan ning, Jing Yichen didnt need Jing Xi to peel the prawns for her, so he prepared all of them for her.
Lou Ziling was not a clean freak, but he was very particr about what he ate. Jing Xi was very happy that he was willing to eat the shrimp she peeled.
She was so happy that she peeled a lot of shrimp and stuffed them into Lou Zilings mouth.
Lou Ziling felt that being fed by her was a burden of happiness.
Fortunately, he had arge appetite. Otherwise, he would not be able to satisfy her interest in feeding him.
After having supper, Jing Xi touched her belly and said worriedly,I eat four meals a day. If I continue eating like this, will I be fat?
Lou Ziling didnt know whether tough or cry. If he continued eating like this, he would definitely be the first to be fat!
Youve only eaten so much. Dont eat less just to slim down. Tell me what you want to eat. The manor definitely didnt prepare crayfish today. Ill get someone to buy it tomorrow and make it for you.
Alright, Ill exercise more. When your leg is better, well go for a walk in the forest to digest our food!
Lou Ziling couldnt help but look at the pitch-ck night sky outside. She was suspicious of her suggestion to take a walk to digest her food. Its fine during the day, but arent you afraid that itll be too eerie at night?
With you here, what do I have to be afraid of?
Besides, Im not afraid of ghosts! Jing Xi said calmly. Its just that this forest is too strange and the fog is heavy, so I get lost easily!
Lou Ziling smiled.Ill tell you the secret of that forest when I have time. You wont be lost anymore. I was lost when I first came here.
He turned the wheels of his wheelchair and slowly walked out.Im going back now. You should sleep early. Ive already arranged for people to be outside. Theres no problem with safety.
Wait! Jing Xi quickly stopped him.Youre not sleeping with me?
The fire in Lou Zilings eyes flickered, but her face remained calm.Not now. Well talk about it when my leg is better. Otherwise, I can only look but not eat. Its easy to get internal injuries from holding it in.
Jing Xi burst intoughter. It was rare for Lou Ziling to make a joke.
It could be seen that He was indeed holding it in a little too much!
Jing Xis fair face blushed. She squatted in front of Lou Zilings wheelchair and pulled Lou Zilings pants.Let me take a look at your leg. Does it still hurt?
Lou Ziling was a little embarrassed when Jing Xi pulled his pants.Dont move! It takes a hundred days for a bone to be injured, and its the bone thats injured. You cant see anything from the outside, so stop looking!
Lou Ziling refused to let her see, so Jing Xi had to give up. She watched his wheelchair disappear and felt a little empty in her heart.
He was clearly living in another small courtyard, but she still felt that he was too far away from her.
Jing Xi thought of a good idea. She chuckled and went to wash up and sleep happily.
The next day, Lou Ziling got up at dawn. He put on a disguise, came out of the secret room, and had a simple breakfast. He saw a bunch of messy things in the living room that Jing Xi had made. A faint smile appeared on his face.
Originally, he hated messy homes the most. His own life was very simple and he liked his home to be clean.
But now that this ce was a mess, he didnt feel ufortable at all. He only felt that Jing Xis scent was everywhere, and it was a surprisingly good feeling.
He left his courtyard and went to Jing Xis residence.
Afraid that the sound of the wheelchair would wake Jing Xi up, he stood up and slowly walked into her bedroom.
On therge wooden bed, Jing Xi was wrapped in the quilt, sleeping soundly and obediently.
Her sleeping posture was surprisingly good. She was lying on her side and her long ck hair was scattered on the pale pink pillow. The words Sleeping Beauty unconsciously appeared in Lou Zilings mind.
Lou Ziling sat by her bed, leaned close to her face, and kissed her on the lips.
Jing Xi opened her eyes in a daze, but closed them again when she saw him.
Lou Ziling couldnt help but kiss her on the forehead again. Her voice was gentle. Im sorry for waking you up,
Jing Xi stretched out her white arms and wrapped them around Lou Zilings neck. She asked himzily,Why are you up so early?
Yes, I have something to do today. Go back to sleep. If youre hungry, go to the main kitchen and get the chef to make you something to eat. If you want to go out and y, Ill give you my card. You can buy whatever you like.
Lou Ziling reminded Jing Xi in a low voice. She nodded and kissed her on her red lips before leaving.
Jing Xi had never spent his money before. The moment Lou Ziling gave her the card, she suddenly felt a touch of happiness.
This was the kind of life he had always yearned for, to raise and pamper his little woman.
However, Lou Ziling felt warm and happy at this moment. When he found out how much of a prodigal Jing Xi was, he could only cry!
Even Jing Yichen felt that his daughters expenses were too high and he couldnt afford to raise her, let alone Lou Ziling.
Jing Xi didnt get up until the sun was high in the sky. It was finally sunny today. After washing up, she went to the big kitchen to find food.
Usually, if she wanted to eat something, she would just call and the servants would send it to her small building when the kitchen was done. This was the first time she hade to the big kitchen.
The Li familys constructionyout waspletely retro, somewhat simr to the ancient pce. The kitchen was a separate courtyard, in addition to a special Academy and a piano room.
The only thing that was more modern was a gym.
Jing Xi was cheerful and beautiful, so she quickly won the favor of the chef and assistant chef.
She couldnt help but smile when she learned that the two of them had received a huge bonus today.
Lou Ziling must have noticed that she liked their cooking, so she gave her more money.
She saw that the chef had cooked a portion of pork rib soup and couldnt help but be curious.Whos this for?
This is for the young miss. If you like it, Ill make you one too!
Jing Xi had no interest in the pork rib soup with coriander, but her eyes lit up when she heard that it was for Li Jing.Ill add some seasoning for her! Shell definitely like it!

Chapter 1570: Hes doing this for you

Ever since Li Jing had stopped being a killer, she had loved to sleep in.
She didnt have to worry about food and clothing. As she grew older, she became more and more concerned about her appearance. She was afraid that she would age too quickly, so she ced great importance on beauty sleep.
After being trapped in the manor by Lou Ziling, she had nothing to do. She liked to sleep more and more.
Lou Ziling had taught her a lesson yesterday. There were many scars on her body and she was listless. When she got up, it was already past 10 in the morning. After washing up, she asked the servant to go to the kitchen to get her food.
Since she had provided Lou Ziling with some information about the Li familys assets, the kitchen had prepared the winter melon pork rib soup ording to her preferences.
The pork rib soup, which had been simmering for five or six hours, was fragrant and tender. The White soup, together with the green coriander and red goji berries, looked and smelled great. Li Jing finally had an appetite.
However, when she ate it, she realized that the taste was slightly different from before. The soup was more delicious and seemed to be a little sweet?
Li Jing didnt take it to heart. Even the best Chef couldnt make the same dish every time. She would only be satisfied if the soup tasted better!
After the meal, Li Jing slowly strolled around her room, nning her next escape route.
She was seriously short of manpower now. She didnt know how Lou Ziling managed to take all her people away. Now, she couldnt even find someone to send news to the outside world.
The thing she wanted to do the most every day was to kill Lou Ziling. How dare he pretend to be Li Xiao to get what belonged to her!
However, she had been tortured by Lou Ziling and felt that it would be too easy on him to kill her. Since Jing Xi was so important to him, she would kill her first and let him suffer!
Li Jing was still thinking about how to take Jing Xis life when she suddenly realized that small goosebumps had appeared on Jing Xis body.
The pimples were painful and itchy, and they quickly covered her entire body. They looked ugly and terrifying. Her originally delicate and beautiful features were no longer visible.
A voice came from above her head,Third sister li, whats wrong? Other people only have pimples on their faces, why do you have pimples on your arms too?
When Li Jing was outside, people would call her Miss Li or big Miss Li. She was so angry that she was suddenly called third sister li.
Moreover, she didnt even need to think to know that this must be Jing Xis doing!
She was the best at tricking people!
Li Jing wasnt afraid of Lou Ziling. Although Lou Ziling was vicious, he was an upright person who didnt want to use any dirty tricks.
But she was afraid of Jing Xi!
Jing Xi wasnt vicious, but she was good at all kinds of evil ideas, and each one of them was more deadly than thest!
Li Jing could withstand all kinds of torture, but she couldnt stand Jing Xis torture. She felt that no one in the world could stand Jing Xi. She didnt know why Lou Ziling liked this little devil so much. Wasnt he afraid of being tortured to death by her when he slept with her?
Hey, third sister Li, Im talking to you. Why didnt you respond? Thats so rude!
Li Jing lived in the oldest courtyard in the manor. Jing Xi lifted a few tiles on the roof and leaned on the roof to talk to Li Jing.
The roof was high enough that Jing Xi was not worried that Li Jing would jump up and hit her.
She took out a small slingshot that she had made and took out a pill from her pocket. She aimed it at Li Jings arm and fired it.
Li Jing instantly felt her left arm go numb. She was both shocked and angry, and her sharp voice shook the roof tiles.Jing Xi, get down here!
Jing Xi picked her ears andined,Why are you speaking so loudly? Im not deaf! Do you think Im stupid? Im not going down. I cant beat you in a one-on-one fight, so I chose to attack from a distance. Hey, look at your arm, it seems like youve been poisoned!
Li Jing looked down and saw that her arm, which had been hit by Jing Xis pill, was already bruised.
The other parts of his body were still itchy, but his left arm was the only one that he could not feel anything!
This, this, this What is this thing!
Jing Xi was lying on the roof, smiling brightly.Its nothing. My Ziling is too soft-hearted to cut off your arms and legs, so I had to do it for him! Dont worry, this is poison. Your arms will soon turn into wood, and then your whole body!
As she spoke, she took out another pill and was about to hit Li Jing.
Li Jing was scared out of her wits. Jing Xi was really capable of doing anything!
Jing Xi was different from the calm Lou Ziling. She was very stubborn. Maybe she would kill Lou Ziling when he was not around.
If I die from the poison, Lou Ziling will not get a single cent! I took all the funds of his Lou group. Dont you want to get it back for him? He caused the entirepany to copse because of you!
What did you just say?
The smile on Jing Xis face disappeared in an instant, and the pill slipped from her hand and fell to the ground. Li Jing was so scared that she quickly moved away from the pill.
What does the copse of the Lou Corporation have to do with me?
Jing Xis expression changed, and Li Jing finally heaved a sigh of relief.
She hurriedly took out a medicine to stop itching from the first aid kit and applied it on her body. She deliberately didnt exin and hung Jing Xi up.
Jing Xi jumped down from the roof with her slingshot.
She slowly walked up to Li Jing, her eyes slightly red and her voice trembling.Say it again. Why did the Lou Corporation copse?
She raised the slingshot in her hand and aimed it at Li Jing, ready to shoot.
Li Zhi was afraid of her pills and immediately said,You, retreat! Back off and Ill tell you!
Speak! Jing Xi took a few steps back.
Lou Zilingspany copsed because he refused to use you. I have always wanted to work with him. He is the best in terms of fortune-making, and among all the men I know, he is the best except for your brother Jing Rui. If I work with Lou Ziling, I am confident that we can bring down family Jing.
Its a pity that he didnt agree. Even if you dont like him anymore and like a flower vase like song Xin, he still wouldnt agree to cooperate with me! Hmph, youre so half-hearted, I dont know what Lou Ziling has to worry about!
Once a person has a weakness, he is no longer invincible! Originally, as long as he agreed to cooperate with me, not only would Lous group not fall, but I would also provide him with more resources to help him develop. But he didnt agree, so I had no choice!
Jing Xi was stunned. She never knew that there was another reason for Lou Zilingspanys copse.
She had always thought that Lou Ziling valued his career more and that he would give up everything for thepany.
So it wasn t!
It turned out that she was more important than hispany!

Jing Xi suddenly felt like crying.
When Lou Zilingspany went bankrupt, she was still at loggerheads with him and deliberately made him angry.
He had left family Jing and had no support. Li Jing was his best choice, but he had given up.
He would rather let the Lou group go bankrupt than waver.
Damn Li Jing, she was so bad that she had to be separated from Lou Ziling for so long! If Lou Ziling didnt go bankrupt, he would stay in A city forever!
Li Jing, thank you for telling me all this. Otherwise, I would never know how much Lou Ziling loves me! In order to express my gratitude, Ille to see you every day from now on. Are you looking forward to it?
Im not looking forward to it!
This would only make Li Jing feel fear!
This has nothing to do with me! He chose not to cooperate!
Jing Xi sneered.You forced him to deal with the Jing family and caused him to go bankrupt. Im going to make you pay for this!
Li Jings body ached and itched, and she couldnt feel one of her arms. Jing Xi still wanted to get even with her. She was so irritable that she was sweating. It was winter, but she was so hot that her clothes were wet.
You cant go Against Me! Your sister-inw, Shuyin, is my biological sister! She only has two rtives in this world, my mother and me. If you dare to kill me, my mother will not acknowledge her as her daughter!
Li Jing suddenly screamed. She and Shuyin had the same mother. This was her best amulet!
That was the reason why Jing Rui had been so tolerant of her and never killed her.
Your brother killed your sister-inws father with his own hands. Do you want to kill your sister-inws sister with your own hands now? My sister married into family Jing and you are going to kill all her family members? Youre all too vicious!
Jing Xis brows furrowed tightly. No way! Did her brother kill her sister-inws father?
She knew that Shuyin and Li Jing had the same mother, but different fathers. She also knew that Li Jings father was controlled by Jing Rui, but she had never known who Shuyins father was or how he passed away.
Speaking of viciousness, you should be the number one in the world!
Jing Xi didnt care if her brother had killed her sister-inws father. Even if he had, there must be a reason. What if Li Jing was lying?
When did I say I wanted to kill you? If you die, I have no one to mess with. How boring is that? Ive been developing a lot of new gadgets recently. I can use you as a test subjectter! Sigh, I used to experiment on myself all the time, but now, I finally have a healthy and fearless test subject!
Li Jing was so angry that she spat out arge mouthful of blood.
She had never been so helpless in her life. In the past, she was the one who made others vomit blood. She never thought that one day, she would be so angry that she would vomit blood!
She had always felt that those people who vomited blood at the drop of a hat were very fake. It was not until today that she realized that it was because she had not met a strong opponent!
Lou Ziling had tortured her for two years. She had used all kinds of torture methods, but she had never felt like she was better off dead than she was today.
The assassin organization should have invited Jing Xi to train their mental strength. As long as they could withstand Jing Xis perverted torture, they would be invincible in the world!
Third sister li, why did you vomit blood?
Jing Xi felt that she had been wronged. Li Jing was good at fighting, but she didnt seem to have a strong mind.
I didnt do anything. Dont die. Otherwise, I wont be able to exin to Lou Ziling when hees back. Do you want me to say that a female elite in the world of assassins, who could survive the cruel training of an assassin organization, was angered to death by my two words?
My brother said that youre the strongest female assassin, but I think youre just average! No wonder you cant survive in the world of assassins anymore. You want to return to the business world to bully my Ziling. Hmph, I despise you!
Li Zhi was so angry that she spat out another mouthful of blood. Her vision went ck and she fainted.
Jing Xi shook her head helplessly and muttered to herself,Im that lethal? He killed a top female killer?
Who did you say was a top female killer?
A faint voice came from behind Jing Xi. Jing Xi turned around and was a little surprised.Ziling, youre back so soon today! Can you go shopping with me this afternoon?
Lou Ziling sat in her wheelchair and waved at Jing Xi.Come here!
Jing Xi walked over happily and stood in front of Lou Ziling.Whats wrong?
Lou Ziling looked at the slingshot in her hand and threw it away.Be obedient. Didnt I tell you not toe here? She was in danger! When Im not at home, youre not allowed toe again!
Oh, okay, I wonte! When youre gone, juste back secretly!
Lou Ziling didnt know what Jing Xi was thinking about, but he felt that Jing Xi seemed to be very obedient today. He held Jing Xis hand and asked her gently,What female killer did you just say? whats that about?
Eh, dont you know? Li Jing is an assassin!
Jing Xi thought for a moment. It seemed that Lou Ziling couldnt have known Li Jings original identity. She only knew Li Jings other identity because Jing Rui and Jing Zhi had been in the killer organization.
She pushed Lou Zilings wheelchair and slowly walked out under the sun.
Li Jing was sent to an assassin organization when she was young and received countless cruel training. She was once one of the top assassins of the younger generation in the assassin organization. Her ranking Was second only to my two brothers. She was third and the most powerful female assassin.
Lou Ziling was shocked beyond words. He was not only shocked by the fact that Jing Rui, Jing Zhi, and Li Jing were all assassins, but also by the fact that Jing Xi had told him such a big secret!
An Assassins true identity was not allowed to be exposed, or they would face great danger.
If the world knew that the man who controlled the business empire of Jingsheng enterprise was a top killer who had killed countless people, the stock price of the enterprise would drop sharply.
Lou Ziling held Jing Xis hand tightly and stood up from the wheelchair. She hugged her and whispered,Xixi, you dont have to tell me this. This is your familys Secret, and its also your secret. You have the right to guard it and not let anyone know. I just need to know Li Jings Secret.
Jing Xi leanedfortably in Lou Zilings arms. His arms were wide and warm, with a faint fragrance that made her feel safe.
Arent you going to marry me? Youre mine and Im Yours, so its fine for you to know some things. Besides, the fact that Li Jing is an assassin cant be avoided from my brother, because the head of the Li family, Li Wu, is in my brothers hands.
This was another shocking secret!
Lou Ziling forced a smile. He knew that family Jing was powerful, but he realized that what he had known before was just the tip of the iceberg.
Chapter 1572
Chapter 1572: Spring in the secret room
Trantor: 549690339
The patriarch of the Li family was at the Jing family.
Lou Ziling had already investigated the fake Li Wu. The DNA test results showed that he and Li Jing were not blood-rted and that he was just a substitute. Li Jing didnt even allow him to live in this Manor. Who would believe that it was in someone elses hands?
He had thought that the real Li Wu was dead!
Lou Ziling rubbed Jing Xis smooth hair and said softly,Your handsome Lou Ziling smiled and said,We cant go down after boarding the pirate ship!
She was touched when she thought about how Lou Ziling would rather give up the Lou group than use her.
Hes too introverted and doesnt want to tell me so many secrets. It seems that I have no choice but to marry you. Otherwise, Ill probably be killed by your brother.
Jing Xi raised her little face and looked at the cool man in the mask. He had silently done something to protect her, but then disappeared without a trace.
The two of them chatted as they went to Jing Xis house for lunch.
The atmosphere here was warm and heartwarming, but Li Jing was in terrible pain.
She woke up not long after she fainted, but her body was in terrible pain. The pimples on her face made Li Jing smash all the mirrors on the floor!
What made her even more anxious was that she still had no feeling in her arm, as if it was crippled.
Li Jing couldnt take it anymore and rushed out, but as soon as she walked out of the courtyard, she was stopped by two people.Miss, the young master has instructed that you are not allowed to go out!
Get lost!
Li Jing was about to go crazy from the torture. She couldnt stand how ugly she had be. She couldnt stand the fact that she had lost an arm and be a cripple!
She wanted to kick the two people who were blocking her out, but her body had be soft and she could not use any strength.
The two men who were watching her easily subdued her and threw her back into the house.
Li Jing, who usually didnt shed much tears, suddenly burst into tears.Get Li Xiao here, Ill give him the money! Hurry up!
The guards were surprised. This was the first time they had seen Li Jing offer to share her assets with her brother.
When Lou Ziling received the news, he was about to go find Li Jing when Jing Xi stopped him.You went as soon as she called you? If you torture her a little longer, you will get more! Maybe she cant stand the pain and will return all the assets of the Lou group to you directly?
Lou Ziling thought for a while and suddenly felt that it made sense.I shouldve asked you to help me earlier. You didnt get the title of witch for nothing. Now, even Li Jing cant handle it. Dont use it to torture me in the future. Im afraid even my willpower cantpare to Li Jing s.
As an assassin, Li Jing must have received special training. If even she had broken down, Lou Ziling felt that he would break down even faster.
Dont worry, I have other ways to deal with you. I wont use this trick. This trick only works on Li Jing!
Jing Xi was very proud of herself. She liked the title of little witch very much. It gave her the domineering air of a viin.
I think your dark gold mask is pretty good. Should I order one? Youll be super cool after you wear it!
It was rare for her to have something she wanted. Lou Zilings voice was gentle.Okay, Ill get someone to make one for you. What color do you like?
I want to be like you, a couple!
Lou Ziling nodded and left with Jing Xi.
She had only brought a few clothes with her when she came to live here. Lou Ziling was going to buy more for her.
When they went shopping, Lou Ziling took off her mask. She took off the human-skin mask with scars on her face and revealed her original appearance.
However, he was sitting in a wheelchair, so he was still a little conspicuous.
Jing Xi pushed Lou Ziling into the shopping mall and saw many people looking at him. She smiled and said,Your rate of turning your head is really high! Those women all looked at you with pity. I think you should just sit in a wheelchair when you go out in the future to ward off evil!
Yes, Lou Ziling replied indifferently,you want everyone to think that Im disabled. That way, no woman will like me!
Yeah, youre too pretty, Im worried about youing out alone! A wheelchair can make the peach blossom demons avoid you!
Jing Xi smiled and went straight to the jewelry counter without looking at the clothes.Were getting engaged. Lets buy the right ring, shall we?
Lou Ziling gently held Jing Xis hand.No need,
Jing Xi pulled her hand away unhappily.Why? I like it!
Because Ive already bought it.
Really?
Why didnt you tell me? Jing Xis eyes lit up.
I wanted to give you a surprise.
Im very surprised right now! Quickly show me!
Lou Ziling felt a little helpless.Why would I bring this with me? I left it at home. Ill show it to you when we get home. Ill apany you to buy clothes first.
Alright then. Hurry up and buy it. Well go home as soon as were done!
Jing Xi bought a lot of clothes and shoes excitedly, but when it came to buying underwear, she was a little conflicted. She asked Lou Ziling quietly,Ziling, what size should I wear?
You dont even know, how would I know? You never let me touch you. Why dont you try it tonight?
Lou Zilings voice was very low. Jing Xis face blushed when she felt his ambiguous breath.
All of her underclothes had been bought by Shangguan ning for her, and she didnt know how big they were.
She picked a few sizes and tried them on in the fitting room. Then, she picked a few suitable ones and bought them.
Lou Ziling took Jing Xi to her secret room after they got home.
As soon as they entered, Lou Ziling stood up from the wheelchair and pressed Jing Xi against the door of the secret room. He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips. They were entangled intensely.
He took off his gloves and reached his big hands into Jing Xis clothes. He moved from her waist to her back and unbuttoned her bra.
Jing Xis breathing was rapid, and her heart was beating like a drum. Lou Zilings sudden passion made her a little dizzy!
She covered her chest and begged him in a low voice,No, Im scared
Lou Ziling bit Jing Xis earlobe and said in a low and sexy voice,Then why did you seduce me in the underwear store? Ive been holding it in all this time, and now youre saying you dont want it?
I When did I seduce you? Dont bite me, I cant take it
Her ears were very sensitive. Every time Lou Ziling bit her, she felt her whole body go numb. She almost fell into Lou Zilings arms.
Jing Xis face turned red. She was so embarrassed that she didnt know what to do. She could only lean her head in Lou Zilings arms and let him bully her.

After a long time, Jing Xi couldnt help but push him away.Ziling, you You Let me go. Didnt you want to show me the ring?
Lou Ziling kissed her neck and bit her delicate corbone. Her voice was a little hoarse from her lust. Ill see youter. I want to see you first, Xixi. Im going crazy She said.
Jing Xi was so embarrassed that she crossed her arms and cried,Lou Ziling, you cant do this. Im going to get angry!
The girls shyness made Jing Xi reject him instinctively.No, no, no! Lou Ziling, let me go, youre scaring me!
She gave Lou Ziling a hard punch, which woke her up for a moment.
He looked up and saw that Jing Xis tears had fallen. He panicked and quickly let go of her and hugged her tightly.Dont be afraid, dont be afraid, silly, I wont touch you anymore! Im sorry, I couldnt help it. I just Just wanted you so much, Xixi!
She made him lose himself too easily and almost made a mistake.
Lou Zilings kisses fell on Jing Xis face and lips like raindrops.Ill wait for you to ept this. Lets take it slowly. Its a happy thing to be so intimate with the person you love. If you dont like it, I wont do it, okay?
His gentleness at the moment waspletely different from his rudeness just now. Jing Xi was still in shock and cried,Youre hurting me! Dont touch me in the future!
Lou Ziling looked down at Jing Xis chest. There were red fingerprints on her fair skin.
Damn it! Why did he bite her so hard!
No wonder Jing Xi was crying!
Lou Ziling picked up Jing Xis coat from the ground and wrapped it around her tightly. She kissed her forehead and said,I was wrong, I was wrong, I wont do it again! I I dont have much experience
He said that he had no experience, which made Jing Xi feel a little better.
Although he had been in love many times, she was the only person he was truly close to.
However, he had been too rough just now. Jing Xi was still scared. She was afraid that staying here would arouse Lou Zilings desire again. She wrapped her clothes tightly, opened the door of the secret room, and ran away quickly.
Lou Ziling felt a little helpless. He seemed to be too impatient and scared the little girl away.
Who asked her to always tease him, making him want her, but then scared to death at the critical moment.
He took a deep breath and suppressed his desire for Jing Xi. He went to the bathroom and took a cold shower for half an hour before he gradually returned to normal.
He changed into loose-fitting clothes and went to Jing Xis ce.
Her door was tightly shut. Lou Ziling knocked on the door for a long time but she refused to open it.
The key to the room was in Jing Xis hand, so Lou Ziling had to find some tools to pry the lock open.
As soon as she entered the room, a pillow flew at her face and hit her.
Get out!
Lou Ziling turned a deaf ear to her and went straight to the bed. She hugged her and turned her face to her. Im a normal man. Is it wrong for me to want you? Ive never touched you before, and didnt you say that I dont have any physiological needs?
I was just casually saying it, I was joking!
You cant joke about this kind of thing. Otherwise, in order to prove my ability, Ill show you how exuberant my needs are!
Lou Ziling took Jing Xis hand and kissed it again and again.Xixi, this level of intimacy is far from enough. I will always want you. Dont try to seduce me again!
Jing Xi felt a little guilty when she mentioned Lou Zilings temptation.
In fact, she was really trying to seduce him on purpose. She always thought that it was fun. Lou Ziling usually looked like a cold man who was abstinent. She always wanted to make him break his skills.
However, when he really broke down, she would feel afraid again.
However, once Lou Ziling returned to his usual self, she couldnt help but flirt with him again.
Lou Ziling didnt know what Jing Xi was thinking, but he couldnt bear to let Jing Xi suffer even a little bit. If she didnt want to, he wouldnt force her.
There woulde a day when she would like to be intimate with him.
I asked someone to buy crayfish, and the kitchen is making it now. There are also fresh blueberries. If youre hungry, you can eat a little first. Youre not allowed to eat too much. Well have dinner in half an hour.
Lou Ziling reminded her in a low voice and pinched her delicate nose.Lets sleep together tonight and cultivate our rtionship, so that you wont let me touch you. My life is almost like that of the monks in Dayun temple!
No! Jing Xi retorted.I heard that some monks from Dayun temple also have women!
Lou Ziling touched her chin.Oh, so I cant even bepared to a monk. Its really tragic to fall into your hands!
Jing Xi opened her mouth but did not know what to say. She pushed Lou Ziling away, wrapped herself in the quilt, and ignored him.
Lou Ziling got out of bed.Im going to Li Jings to see what youve done. Be good and wait for me toe back for dinner. Dont run away!
Jing Xi toot. Where did she go? Go home?
She had finally found Lou Ziling. Why would she run away?
After Lou Ziling left, Jing Xi immediately got up from the bed and ran to the mirror to look at her chest.
Jing Xi was both angry and embarrassed. She decided that she would bite back next time!
Jing Xi covered her face shyly and then buried her face in the nket, as if no one would know her embarrassment.
When Lou Ziling came back, she saw Jing Xi covered in a quilt, looking as if she was about to suffocate.
Xixi,e out and eat!
Im angry. To punish you, I wont be eating tonight!
Her muffled voice came from under the nket, making Lou Ziling want tough.
Who was he punishing?
He lifted the nket, pulled Jing Xi out of bed, and carried her all the way to the dining room.
He let Jing Xi sit next to him, put his arm around her waist, and helped her smooth her messy hair. He said in a low voice,Youre about to be engaged to me, why are you still so childish? If you want to punish me, I wont eat and will just watch you eat. Is that okay?

Trantor: 549690339
That wont do. If you dont eat, youre punishing me. If I dont eat, Im punishing you!
Jing Xi couldnt bear to let Lou Ziling starve. She would be heartbroken if he was so hungry.
Lou Ziling understood Jing Xis logic. He smiled and said,Alright, well both eat. You can change your punishment!
Why dont you bark like a dog?
Woof! Woof! Woof!
Jing Xi was still angry at him, but when she heard that he was really barking like a dog, she burst outughing without a second of hesitation.
Sheughed and fell into Lou Zilings arms. Youre really learning! Its destroying your cold temperament, its not like you!
Lou Ziling saw that she was finally happy. She lowered her head and kissed her forehead.It doesnt matter if you dont want your temperament. As long as youre happy, I can bark like a dog every day!
Really? Then try it again, you didnt look like it just now!
This
More? Lou Ziling was about to break down. He had never thought that one day, he would bark like a dog just to please a girl.
The animal he was most afraid of and hated in his life was dogs.
Eat first. Well talk after youre done.
Youre not allowed to go back on your word!
Yes, I won t. Okay, Lou Ziling replied. She thought that she should coax Jing Xi to eat first. Maybe she would forget about it after eating.
So, he deliberately dragged out the time for dinner. In order to divert her attention, he told Jing Xi about Li Jing in a low voice.
What medicine did you give her? why is she crying like that? Ive never seen her cry before. When I went there just now, she cried and begged me to send you away. As long as I send you away, she will return the tens of billions of Yuan in the Lou Corporation to me.
Jing Xi immediately red at Lou Ziling.You want to send me away?
Send you away and then Ill deal with Li Jing myself? With you here, not only can I get back the assets of the Lou group, but I can also take over the assets of the Li family. Even if you want to leave now, I wont let you!
Lou Ziling peeled crayfish for Jing Xi and said,Also, youre my woman. From now on, youll follow me wherever I go. If I let you run away with someone else again, my surname is not Lou!
Jing Xi was both angry and amused. She felt sweet in her heart.What nonsense are you talking about? when did I run away with someone else? I already said that song Xin and I are only ordinary friends! Why are you still jealous?
And that brother mu of yours, hes so close to me. I dont think hes a good person either. Stay away from him in the future!
Jing Xiughed and pinched Lou Zilings ear.Youre so heartless. Thest time you had a car ident, it was my cousin who saved you from the King of Hell. Without him, you might still be lying in the hospital in aa right now!
Saving me is one thing, but him touching you is another.
Lou Ziling peeled the tender lobster meat and fed it to Jing Xi. She said calmly,Ill definitely repay him for saving me, but I wont need you to repay him, nor do I need you to repay him on my behalf. Anyway, stay away from him in the future! There must be a problem if hes still not married at such an old age!
Jing Xi pinched him hard.Dont say anything bad about my cousin. Hes different from song Xin. He really loves me and treats me like a sister! Hes not getting married because he hasnt met a suitable one yet. Im helping him look for a girlfriend. You can help him look for one too. If theres no suitable one in A city, there might be one here.
Alright, Ill take this!
Lou Ziling agreed immediately. It would be great to find a girlfriend for mu Sen. After he had a girlfriend, he would definitely keep a distance from Jing Xi!
Although they were cousins, who said that cousins could not have good feelings?
Although thew forbade marriage between close rtives, thew did not restrict the love between close rtives!
He was now in control of a lot of the Li familys resources andpanies. There were many outstanding girls around him. There should be one suitable for mu Sen.
After dinner, just when Lou Ziling thought that Jing Xi had forgotten about barking like a dog, Jing Xi jumped on him with a smile and kissed him.Learn how to bark like a little dog.
Can I not learn it? Lou Ziling had a headache.
No, you promised me. You have to keep your word. Learn quickly!
Lou Ziling hesitated for a while and finally said in a low voice, Woof! Woof! Woof!
No, I can tell this dog is sick. Its not domineering enough. I want to hear a loud dog bark!
Woof! Woof! Woof!
No, your voice is too fierce. Are you going to bite me? Change to a gentler one!
Lou Ziling was speechless.
It was not easy to be a dog these days!
This girl really had a lot of ideas. No wonder Li Jing couldnt stand her and had cried so hard that her eyes were like peaches!
Outside Jing Xis house, several killers were guarding her. They were responsible for her safety.
They heard the barking from time to time and looked at each other. When they realized that Jing Xi had forced Lou Ziling to bark like a dog, they allughed so hard that they couldnt stand straight.
After being an assassin for a long time, one would be very cold. Ones emotions would be severely suppressed, and one would also be depressed and paranoid.
They hadntughed like this in a long time. Ever since Jing Xi had arrived, the huge, lifeless Manor had suddenly be lively.
She alone had caused chaos in the entire Manor. It was fine if she was funny at night, but she would always change her ways to torment some assassins during the day.
She was the only one who could confidently use a group of top assassins as errand boys. One moment, she asked one to buy medicinal powder, the next moment, she asked the other to collect tree branches, and even asked them to make her slingshot.
Family Jing had raised this little devil for twenty years, and it had not been easy.
If it was another person, they would not be able to afford to raise her. They would have to send away such a troublesome daughter at any time!
The next morning, Lou Ziling went out with her men. Jing Xi had breakfast and then excitedly ordered the killers to buy all kinds of things for her.
She even patted the shoulder of one of the killers and said earnestly,Youre so handsome, why do you want to be an assassin? Wasnt it good to be an actor? I know a manager, why dont I introduce you to the entertainment industry?
The killer didnt know whether tough or cry. He shook his head repeatedly.No, thank you! Our organization has strict rules that you cant leave the organization at will. Even if you want to enter the entertainment industry, its just a disguise.
Really? Jing Xi blinked. Aiya, its fine. If you want to leave, I can go to your leader and ask for your help! Dont worry, itll be 100% effective if I show up!
The cool and handsome killer was suddenly helpless. He had been in the killer organization for ten years and had only seen the person with the highest power once. He still didnt know who the person in charge was.

Trantor: 549690339
The little princess of family Jing was a big talker, and it was a 100% effective. It was good enough that she could see him.
No need, no need. Im very satisfied with my current state and dont need to change. When I want to quit, Ill definitely ask for your help!
Other than killing, he knew nothing. Other than killing, he was not interested in anything else.
Acting?
How boring!
He didnt have any talent for acting, so he couldnt do such a fake thing.
Fighting was more interesting. It was all real, and it would make him feel alive.
Perhaps one day in the future, he would be tired of his bloody life as an assassin, but not now. He was living a carefree life now. All he needed to do was to follow Jing Xi and protect her. The sry was ridiculously high, and the treatment was amazing.
There were many strict rules in an assassin organization, but there was also a very loose side.
For example, after he epted Lou Zilings task, he could only listen to Lou Zilings orders. No one would care about what he did in his spare time.
Jing Xi didnt know that this cool and handsome killer liked to be a killer. She was very satisfied with her willingness to help others.
Although he was suspected of stealing her brothers girlfriend, if the assassin really became an actor, then he would join Star Media, and he would still belong to Jing Rui!
After tormenting the killers, Jing Xi took the food box and went to take care of Li Jing.
Third sister li,e out and wee me! Im here to see you! Look, I brought you some delicious food. I made it myself!
Li Jing shuddered when she heard her voice and screamed,Get lost! Youre a lunatic!
Jing Xi put the lunchbox on the table and shook her head.Look at you now, you dont look like a youngdy. Dont go crazy,e and eat!
Even if I starve to death, I will never eat your food!
Li Jing already knew that the goosebumps were all over her body because of the pork rib soup she had drunk yesterday.
The pimples no longer hurt or itched, but none of them had disappeared. They covered her entire body and face. Li Jing felt nauseated just looking at them.
God had given her a beautiful face and a perfect body, but now, everything was ruined by Jing Xi!
Let Lou Ziling do it, he can have anything he wants! If you really love him, then disappear from this ce immediately! As long as you leave, Ill give him 10 billion in assets!
Waa!
Jing Xi eximed,I didnt know I was so valuable! Youre actually so rich! Even my dad would need at least a year to consider throwing out 10 billion, yet youre so generous!
Are you leaving or not?
Go! Of course he had to leave! I love Ziling very much. As long as you give him the money, Ill disappear from this ce immediately!
No, you must leave first and nevere back! Ill only give you the money after you leave. Otherwise, what if you dont leave after I give you the money?
Li Jing didnt trust Jing Xi at all. This girl could change her mind at any time. She didnt care about her integrity. She liked to use any underhanded method.
But what if you dont give Lou Ziling money after I leave?
Jing Xi didnt trust Li Jing even more. This woman was more cunning and untrustworthy than she was. She wouldnt fall for it.
If I dont give Lou Ziling money, you cane back anytime!
Oh, thats a good idea! Then well do as you say, Ill go first!
You also have to give me the antidote to help me get rid of these disgusting things! Also, my arm has to return to normal!
No problem. I will give Lou Ziling the antidote. As long as you give him money, he will give you the antidote. Is that fair?
Fair, my ass!
Li Zhi was so angry that she wanted to curse Jing Xi to death, but she could only swallow her anger and send this little devil away first.
When Lou Ziling came back at night, he changed his clothes and went to Jing Xis house. He saw Jing Xi packing her things and panicked.Xixi, what are you doing?
Pack up your clothes and get ready to leave!
Lou Ziling stood up from the wheelchair and hugged Jing Xi.Dont leave! Youre not allowed to go anywhere!
Li Jing said that shell give you 10 billion Yuan in assets if I leave!
I dont want to!
Lou Zilings voice was a little cold,didnt you say that you didnt want me to send you awayst night? Why did you change today?
Ah, its not that I didnt agreest night, but you sending me away and me leaving on my own are two different things! If you dont let me go, it means that you care about me. If I take the initiative to leave, it means that I care about you!
No, you cant leave! Everything in Li Jings hands will be mine sooner orter. I dont need you to leave in exchange for it!
Lou Zilings concern for her made Jing Xi feel happy and warm.
He didnt want money, he only wanted her.
It was really good!
Are you stupid? Im just leaving for a few days. Ille back after shes sure that Im gone and gives you the money!
No, I dont agree!
Lou Ziling hugged Jing Xi tightly and lowered her voice.Are you still angry with me? I didnt mean to hurt you yesterday. I promise I wont do it again. Dont go.
His voice was so gentle that Jing Xi almost burst into tears.
She wasnt angry anymore. She also liked to be more intimate with Lou Ziling. In fact, she was a little regretful. She had been resisting his deep touch, which made Lou Ziling ufortable.
She was already prepared to give herself to him, but every time, she would be extremely shy. He was always too violent and too anxious, causing her to instinctively resist.
Jing Xi leaned her head on Lou Zilings chest and said softly,Dont think too much. Im not leaving because of this. I was going home anyway. How about this, youe home with me. Ive been to your house and officially met your parents, but you havent been to my house yet!
Alright, Ill go!
Lou Ziling agreed immediately. He had always wanted to meet Jing Xis parents. He had to discuss the engagement with them first. Besides, he didnt even know when the Jing family would pick for the engagement.
Or maybe they didnt even set a date, and Jing Xi said she wanted to get engaged, but her parents might not agree.
Seeing that Lou Ziling had agreed, Jing Xi smiled and turned back to pack her clothes.
Lou Ziling pressed her hand down.Dont clean up. Youre only going home for a few days. Dont bring anything. Just leave it here. Youll be back in two days.
He hugged Jing Xi from behind and rested his chin on her neck.Well go to your house tomorrow. Dont do anything, dont say anything. Leave everything to me.
Jing Xi was afraid that he would be at a disadvantage because of his reserved personality, so she said,No need, just bring enough gifts. Ill deal with my parents. They love me, so Ill just act coquettishly and there wont be any problems!
Lou Ziling smiled and kissed Jing Xis cheek. She didnt refute her.
He would definitely not let Jing Xi deal with it alone. He was the one who wanted to marry Jing Xi. How could he hide behind her?
He wanted to stand in front of her and tell her parents that they could leave Jing Xi to him without worry!

The next morning, Lou Ziling left the manor with Jing Xi and went to the airport together.
Ziling, why dont you sit in the wheelchair? Are your legs alright?
Im going to your house today. How can I be in a wheelchair? Its better to walk to your house on two legs.
Lou Ziling exined calmly as she held Jing Xis hand.
Of course, his legs were not fully recovered yet, but he didnt want to sit in a wheelchair anymore. Otherwise, Jing Yichen wouldnt hand Jing Xi over to him if he found out that he had problems with his legs.
You injured your leg because you were trying to save me. You look so pitifuling to my house in a wheelchair. Maybe my dad will be too embarrassed to make things difficult for you!
Lou Ziling smiled. He didnt need to do any favors. It seemed that Jing Xi was also worried that Jing Yichen would make things difficult for him, but he was not afraid.
It was noon when the ne arrived in A city. A long convoy of cars drove from the airport all the way to Jing Xis house.
Where did you get so many cars?
Jing Xi sat in the car and leaned against Lou Ziling. She looked at the long line of cars with curiosity.
You said you wanted to go home, so I got someone to prepare it overnight in A city. Its my first time going to your house, so I have to be imposing.
Lou Ziling put her arm around Jing Xis waist and kissed her forehead.Otherwise, Im afraid your dad will think Im too poor.
Jing Xi chuckled. It was true. Jing Yichen had always thought that Lou Zilings family was too poor.
When they arrived at the Jing familys house, the motorcade stopped by the side of the road. Lou Ziling got out of the car with Jing Xi, held her hand, and walked into themunity with her.
Behind them, a few men in suits and leather shoes followed slowly with all kinds of gifts.
It was cold in the middle of winter, and there were still small snowkes floating in the air.
Lou Ziling stopped, put the hat on Jing Xis down jacket on her head, and wrapped her furry scarf twice before holding her hand and continuing to walk forward.
Jing Xi was very happy. She stuck close to Lou Ziling and looked up at his handsome face, which had turned white in the cold wind.
Why arent you wearing a hat or a scarf?
Because You wont be handsome if you wear it!
I thought you never cared about your image! Jing Xiughed.
Ive always been very concerned about my image in front of you. The goal I set for myself is to be as handsome as I can, so that you wont run away with any handsome guy you see!
Jing Xi stomped her foot in anger.Ive never been with anyone else. Theyre just ordinary friends. I only want to marry you. I dont want to marry anyone else!
Lou Ziling patted her head and chuckled.Yes, okay. Its toote to marry someone else now.
Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen were standing side by side in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the twenty-seventh floor of thendscapepound, looking at the couple who were walking slowly towards them from the square.
Shangguan ning was a little excited,Yichen, look at how well-matched they are! Lou Ziling was very considerate. She was afraid that Xixi would catch a cold, so she put a hat on her head! Xixi never liked to wear hats, but now shes finally wearing one!
Jing Yichen said calmly,this is the most basic concern. He still needs to be tested. We only have one precious daughter. It wont be easy for Lou Ziling to marry her.
Dont test me, I think its fine! Dont scare your future son-inw away. You can coax Xixi yourself when she criester! Look at how much Xixi likes him, and how happy shes smiling. Hurry up and let them get married!
If he was so easily scared away, he wouldnt be worthy of my daughter. Xixi is only twenty, whats the rush?
Shangguan ning thought about it carefully and realized that her daughter seemed to be a little too young. She could understand Jing Yichens feelings. He had raised his daughter for twenty years and now she was about to get married. She might have to live in city W for the rest of her life and he wouldnt be able to take care of her every day. It would make him feel very sad.
Her eyes slowly turned red and she stopped talking.
Seeing that she was about to cry, Jing Yichen said, Dont cry. We wont let Xixi get married. Well let her stay at home and wait at least ten years before she gets married!
Shangguan ning couldnt cry anymore. She red at Jing Yichen and said,What nonsense are you saying? how can you dy Xixis happiness? Its rare for her to meet someone she really likes. Lou Ziling is not only good-looking, but he also knows how to take care of people. Im not worried about Xixi following him. Its just I cant bear to.
The doorbell rang, and Jing Xis clear and melodious voice came from outside.Dad, mom, Im back! Quickly open the door!
Shangguan ning ran to open the door. Jing Xi threw herself into her arms as soon as she opened it. Mom, Ive missed you so much!
Shangguan ning was also happy,mom missed you too! Hurry ande in!
Hello, Auntie! Lou Ziling smiled.
Then he looked at Jing Yichen who was standing behind Shangguan ning.Hello, uncle. Im here to see you with Xixi!
Jing Yichen nodded slightly, neither coldly nor warmly.
Fortunately, Lou Ziling had seen him many times and knew that he was usually like this. He was not warm to anyone.
When they entered the living room, Lou Zilings men put the gifts neatly and left quietly.
The servants served some fruits and hot tea. Jing Xi was chatting with Shangguan ning while drinking the tea. The room was filled with her crisp voice and Shangguan ningsughter.
Jing Yichen was sitting on the sofa, staring at Lou Ziling.
He didnt talk much, and Lou Ziling didnt talk much either. The two of them just sat there and listened to the two womens conversation.
After a while, Jing Xi said to Jing Yichen,Dad, how are the preparations for my engagement with Ziling? Are you getting engaged next week?
When did I agree to your engagement? Jing Yichen said calmly.
Why did you change your mind? Jing Xis eyes widened. No, no, I want to get engaged and get married immediately after the engagement!
Uncle, please leave Xixi to me. Ill protect her for the rest of her life and never let her suffer.
Lou Ziling patted Jing Xis hand gently and said to Jing Yichen in a serious tone.
You cant prove it with words. It depends on your actions in the future. Dont worry about the engagement first. Xixi is only 20 years old. My daughter has been pampered since she was young and is a serious prodigal. If youre penniless, youd better stay away from her.
Lou Ziling was not worried, but Jing Xi was.Dad, when did I squander? Im already twenty, not young anymore. I should get engaged soon! Are you hoping that I wont be able to get married?
My daughter will be able to get married. Even if you grow up to be a pig, you can still get married!
If Im a pig, Jing Xi muttered,then youre a pig too. Hmph! Other people marry me because youre rich, but Ziling isn t!
Jing Yichen didnt know whether tough or cry when his daughter called him a pig.
She even scolded her own father for Lou Ziling!
He just wanted to see Lou Zilings sincerity. If he really didnt agree with her and Lou Ziling, would he let her go to city W alone? To let Lou Ziling in?
Chapter 1577
Chapter 1577: Finally, someone dared to take her
Trantor: 549690339
It was said that Women in Love had zero intelligence. It seemed that it was true.
His daughter, who had always been smart and quick-witted, didnt even know how to use her brain when faced with such a situation.
He wanted to let Lou Ziling know that it was not easy to marry Jing Xi. Lou Ziling had gone through a lot to marry Jing Xi, so that he would cherish her in the future!
Its hard to say whether hes Lou Ziling or Li Xiao now. His identity cant be seen by others, so how can I let you marry him? Just wait! When hes done with his business, you cane back and talk to me about this!
Lou Ziling had the same thought as Jing Yichen. He also felt that he was too unstable and it was dangerous for Jing Xi to stay with him.
Uncle, Ill settle this as soon as possible. Dont worry, Ill take good care of Xixi! No matter how long it takes, I will wait for her!
Jing Yichen was very satisfied with Lou Zilings tactful attitude. He was about to nod when Jing Xi suddenly said loudly, Im pregnant!
The other three people in the living room were startled at the same time. Jing Yichen was the first to recover.Give me your hand!
Her father was an all-rounder and even knew how to read pulses. It was said that when her mother was pregnant with her, her father didnt even need to take her to the doctor. His pulse reading skills were first-ss, and he took good care of her mothers body, so she was very healthy from the moment she was born.
Jing Xi hugged her arms and refused to reach out.I won t! Everyone in the city knows that Im going to be engaged to young master Li this month. If I suddenly cancel the engagement, people willugh at me for not wanting me!
Jing Yichen said calmly,no one willugh at you. Only young master Li will. After all, he is ugly and disabled. It is normal for us to break off the engagement.
The ugly and crippled Lou Ziling smiled bitterly.You cant break off the engagement. I really want to marry Xixi, so let her live with me for now. If I dont take good care of her, you can punish me however you want!
Jing Xi toot and reached out to touch Lou Zilings face. She did not hide her love for Lou Ziling at all.Our Ziling is so handsome. Dad has bad taste. I think Ziling is the most handsome man in the world!
Lou Ziling was not used to showing off his love to Jing Xi in front of others, especially in front of her parents. He was afraid that he would leave a frivolous impression on Jing Xis parents.
Not only Lou Ziling, but Shangguan ning and Jing Yichen were also not used to it.
Especially Jing Yichen. Her daughter had always said that he was the most handsome man in the world.
How did it change?
It was really sad!
Most people forget their mother after they get married, but Jing Xi had forgotten her father before she got married!
Jing Yichen snorted and looked at Lou Ziling even more unhappily.
Shangguan ning invited them to the dining room for lunch. When Jing Xi and Lou Ziling were not paying attention, she pinched Jing Yichen and gave him a warning look. Then she turned around and talked to Lou Ziling with a smile.
There was no rule in their family that food was not spoken. They ate as freely as they could. Shangguan ning asked all kinds of questions in a gentle voice and Lou Ziling answered them one by one.
Jing Yichen didnt say much. He just listened to Lou Zilings future ns and found that Jing Xi was involved in all of them. He nodded to himself.
Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xi and tried his best to protect her.
He had protected Jing Xi for a long time and had always been the closest man to Jing Xi.
However, after Lous group went bankrupt, Lou Ziling disappeared for more than two years. Jing Xi had been looking for him for a long time, which made Jing Yichen worried.
What if there was a misunderstanding and Lou Ziling disappeared again?
Therefore, he wanted to test her for a while longer.
After a sumptuous lunch, Jing Yichen asked Lou Ziling toe to the study.
Jing Xi sat on the sofa and waited for them toe out, but they didn t. She couldnt help but hold Shangguan nings arm.Mom, go and see if Ziling will be at a disadvantage! You go to him and help him out!
Shangguan ning burst intoughter,what are you talking about? your father is doing this for your own good. Ive be a good person and hes willing to be the bad person. Itll be good for you to remind Lou Ziling more!
Mom, hes already really good!
Jing Xi looked happy and whispered,He listens to me very much and does whatever I say. Every morning before he leaves, he wille and kiss me. When hees back at night, the first thing he does ise to find me.
Xixi, youre not pregnant, are you? Shangguan ning lowered her voice.
Of course not! Jing Xi snickered.Lou Ziling and I are still very pure! Whenever I cry, hell feel bad for me and wont touch me anymore!
She shared some of her secrets with her mother happily. She would tell her mother everything anyway and Shangguan ning would neverugh at her. She encouraged her like a friend and taught her things to take note of when interacting with men.
Shangguan ning held her daughter in her arms. Looking at her beautiful daughter, she suddenly felt that Lou Ziling had gotten a great deal out of this.
Fortunately, Lou Ziling was not reckless and loved her deeply. Otherwise, what should have happened and what should not have happened would have happened during Jing Xis stay.
Xixi, dont always make a fuss. Lou Ziling is a good person and you can rely on him. But you have to learn to care for him. Itll definitely be out of bnce if only one person has to give.
I care about him. Li Jing said that if I left the Li familys Manor, she would give Lou Ziling arge sum of money. Thats why I came back!
Lou Ziling agreed?
Of course he didnt agree. He said he didnt want money, he only wanted me! He only agreed to it when I said Ide back to discuss the engagement with you.
Jing Xi smiled shyly. Shangguan ning was surprised to see that.
Jing Xi had rarely been shy since she was a child. She had always understood the things between men and women. Although she used to love chasing handsome men, she always teased others and made them blush, but she acted like nothing had happened.
Now, she actually knew how to be shy!
He had finally opened his aperture!
Jing Yichen and Lou Ziling talked for a long time in the study. Jing Xi was puzzled. How could the two men, who didnt like to talk, talk for so long?
In the evening, Jing Rui finished his work and came back with Shuyin and Jing Che.
With a child in the house, it suddenly became lively.
The family gathered around the table for dinner. After dinner, Jing Xi suggested ying cards. Jing Rui was not interested, but Jing Xi forced him to sit down on the sofa.
Im back with my fianc. Youre not allowed to leave. y cards with me!
Shuyin couldnt help butugh. Jing Rui had never liked to y these things and found them unchallenging. But everyone here seemed to be experts, and it was hard to say if he could win.
Jing Che was influenced by Jing Rui and lost interest in ying cards. He stayed by Lou Zilings side and looked at him curiously.
Are you going to marry my aunt?
Yes, Lou Ziling nodded.
Jing Che heaved a sigh of relief,Finally, someone wants her!

The night passed quickly and Jing Rui and his family left. Lou Ziling also got up to leave.
Jing Xi had wanted to ask him to stay, but seeing Jing Yichens sharp eyes, she had to change her words. Ill send you out.
She put on a down jacket and walked slowly with Lou Ziling in themunity.
Ziling, what did my father say to you in the study today?
Lou Ziling held Jing Xis hand and smiled.Nothing much. He just conducted a deeper inspection of me.
Did he threaten you?
No, I didn t,
Did he bully you?
No, I didn t,
Then he
None of them. Lou Ziling interrupted Jing Xi and said with a smile,Dont ask, he just wants a promise from me.
Then why did you guys chat for so long?
It means that your dad and I get along well!
It didnt look like they could get along!
His fathers expression was always cold, which was quite scary.
When are we getting engaged?
This month, at the end of the month.
Really? Jing Xi was surprised and happy. Thats great! I thought my dad didnt agree!
He agreed to it, but he had one request.
What request?
I want you to keep a low profile. You cant expose your identity.
Why? I want the whole world to know that were engaged!
Lou Ziling was under a tall sycamore tree outside themunity. He held Jing Xi in his arms and said in a low voice,The news of the engagement will definitely be widely reported. Everyone will know about the marriage between our two families. Your fathers intention is that you cant expose your appearance and take the opportunity to invite many guests.
This was to prevent him from using Jing Xis identity and the Jing family as an inw to win over power.
This was exactly what Lou Ziling wanted.
He didnt want Jing Xis identity to be exposed, and he wouldnt use her to gain power.
He and Jing Yichen had the same idea.
So thats how it is. It seems like my dad really loves me!
Jing Xi smiled and hugged Lou Zilings neck.Give me a kiss.
Lou Ziling lowered her head and kissed her on the lips.
No, thats too perfunctory!
Lou Ziling kissed her again. The kiss was deep and lingering. He pressed Jing Xis head and lifted her chin to make it easier for him to take her.
He took away all the air in her mouth, sucked her sweetness, and gently bit her soft lips.
He had never thought that one day, he would be able to stand in front of Jing Yichen and ask him to marry his daughter.
He had once thought that the person who did this would be Luo Feiyang or Ji moxuan.
After the long kiss, Jing Xi was panting in Lou Zilings arms, her face red.
His kissing skills were getting better and better!
He could easily tug at her heartstrings and make her fall apart.
Where are you staying tonight?
Lou Zilings voice was gentle. The tip of his nose touched Jing Xis nose. He couldnt help but kiss Jing Xis lips and said in a low voice,Im staying in a hotel.
You can stay in your old vi. Ill buy it and return it to you.
Lou Zilings heart was slightly touched. He kissed Jing Xi again and again until she was about to suffocate. Only then did he reluctantly let go.
Alright, Ill stay there. However, since you bought it, it will always be yours.
Jing Xi didnt argue. It didnt matter who it was. Even Lou Ziling was hers!
Did my mouth turn red?
Lou Ziling didnt understand what she meant.Whats wrong? It looks good, but its a little swollen. Does it hurt? Youre the one who thinks Im too perfunctory, so Im kissing you very seriously. If you dont like it, I wont do it next time.
Jing Xi hit him angrily.Its not a matter of whether you like me or not. How am I going to go home like this?
Oh, so she was worried that her parents would find out that they were kissing.
Its fine. Just say that you identally bit it. Theyve all been through it. They definitely know how much well be entangled in our passionate love.
Lou Ziling said it matter-of-factly without blushing at all.
Jing Xi couldnt help but reach out to touch his chest, only to find that his heart was beating very fast, no less than hers.
Your heart is beating so fast, why cant I see it on your face?
Because Im thick-skinned,
Lou Ziling couldnt help but tease her, which made Jing Xiugh.
She leaned into Lou Zilings arms and was reluctant to let him leave.
It was a cold winter night, but Lou Ziling blocked all the cold. She could only feel his warm chest and his passionate love.
He was such an introverted person, but he kissed her again and again as if he never knew how to be satisfied.
What time is it?
Itste. Lou Ziling was afraid that Jing Xi would feel cold, so she urged her in a low voice,Hurry up and go upstairs. Ille and pick you up tomorrow. Ill apany you the whole day.
Alright!
Jing Xi walked away, looking back at her every step.
Lou Ziling stood still until she could no longer see her. Then, she drove away.
He returned to the small vi he used to live in and quickly found that everything in the house was the same as before, except for the many girls clothes and items in the closet.
He smiled. The extra things were all Jing Xi s.
It seemed that she had been living here alone for quite a long time.
When she was living here, did she miss him every day?
He had thought that he was the only one who had missed her so much in the two years that they had been apart.
The night passed, and when she woke up again, A city was already covered in silver and white, turning into a World of Ice and snow.
Lou Ziling got ready and drove to pick up Jing Xi.
Jing Xi left with him without even having breakfast. Shangguan ning called her from behind, but she ran away with a smile and did not respond.
In the elevator, Lou Ziling held Jing Xis waist and said in a loving voice,Silly girl, why arent you eating breakfast? I can wait a little longer.
Have you eaten?
Lou Ziling wanted to say yes, but after a moment of hesitation, she told the truth,No, I came to pick you up as soon as I got up.
Thats great! Lets go out and eat. I know a really good restaurant that serves sweet potato porridge for breakfast. I love it!
Lou Ziling knew that with Jing Xis status, the family would prepare anything she wanted to eat. She had rushed out just to have a meal with him alone.
After they got into the car, Lou Ziling lifted her chin and kissed her.
Jing Xi held Lou Zilings face, blinked and asked,I missed you the entire night. Did you miss me?
There is.
Then, can I stay with you tonight?
Lou Zilings fingers gently caressed Jing Xis smooth and delicate face, and she couldnt let go.Ill listen to you. Im just not sure if your parents will agree.
Ive been living with you in the Li family manor for so many days. Its not like they dont know about it. I dont want to be separated from you anymore. You sleep beside me, or I cant sleep!
Yes, sure.

Perhaps it was because the snow was too thick and the weather was too cold, there were not many people in the restaurant.
There was only a couple in the corner. They were hugging each other affectionately and kissing shyly before breakfast was served.
Soaring, Ruyi!
Jing Xis clear and melodious voice disturbed the couple.
Tan Ruyi looked up and saw her cousin standing coldly not far away. She blushed in embarrassment.
She stood up nervously, like a child who had done something wrong, and stuttered,Cou Cousin, you You
She mumbled you for a long time, but she couldnte up with a reason.
Lou Ziling just nodded at her, then took Jing Xis hand and sat down at the furthest seat from them.
Tan Ruyi stood there uneasily. She wanted to exin to Lou Ziling, but she found that she couldn t.
She was indeed the one who had kissed Luo Feiyang just now, and she had done so willingly.
Luo Feiyang pulled tan Ruyi back to his side and said unhappily,Why are you afraid of your cousin? Does he still care about your rtionship?
Lou Ziling would definitely not ask her about her love situation. Tan Ruyi knew that Lou Ziling did not care if she was in love. She was just shy and nervous when her brother saw her kissing someone else.
Tan Ruyis face was blushing a beautiful pink, making Luo Feiyangs heart itch.
She blushed too easily!
Very interesting!
Luo Feiyang lowered his head and wanted to kiss her again, but tan Ruyi hurriedly refused.No, no, my cousin is here!
Isnt your cousin in love too? What are you panicking for? maybe theyll kiss even more intensely than we do!
Tan Ruyi still did not agree. She refused to sit with Luo Feiyang again. Instead, she sat opposite him.
To her, Lou Ziling was not only a brother but also a father. She had been afraid of Lou Ziling since she was a child and had always been well-behaved in front of him. Now, she didnt dare to be intimate with Luo Feiyang in front of him.
The little woman in his arms ran away. Without that soft touch, Luo Feiyang was very unhappy.
Therefore, he quickly finished his meal and went to find trouble!
Hey, Lou, didnt you disappear? Why did hee back? Xixi is going to marry that Li Xiao. What are you going to do?
Lou Zilings expression was still calm. He scooped a bowl of sweet potato porridge for Jing Xi and took a sip himself. Then he said to Jing Xi in a low voice,Its really good. Ill ask the chef to make it for youter. You can also add some blueberries to it.
Jing Xi looked at Luo Feiyang and then at Lou Ziling. She smiled and said,Sure, well try it when we get home! Feiyang, why arent you coaxing your girlfriend? are you here to fight Lou Ziling?
Luo Feiyangs girlfriend, tan Ruyi, immediately pulled on Luo Feiyangs arm.Feiyang, dont fight with my cousin. You cant hurt him!
Luo Feiyang was frustrated. Why did he have to take a fancy to tan Ruyi?
This girl was Lou Zilings cousin. She always sided with Lou Ziling.
If they really fought, it was hard to say who would hurt who!
Tan Ruyi should be concerned about Lou Zilings injury.
Xixi, are you really going to marry Li Xiao? Not only is he disfigured, but his legs are also disabled. His personality is also very bad. Cant you find someone else?
Jing Xi held back herughter and sighed.I cant help it. My father said he wanted to marry into the Li family. No one wanted to marry me, so I had to marry Li Xiao!
Luo Feiyang almost blurted out,Ill marry you. But when he saw tan Ruyi beside him, he swallowed his words.
He still liked tan Ruyis timid personality. Sometimes she was mischievous, but she would always need him and rely on him.
Not Jing Xi. She was too powerful. Luo Feiyang had already regarded her as his brother!
Isnt there a single man sitting next to you? Let him marry you!
Jing Xi hugged Lou Zilings arm and asked in a coquettish tone,Ziling, are you willing to take me away from Li Xiao?
Lou Zilingughed in his heart. Jing Xi was having fun. She was snatching her own wife?
To think she could think of that.
Do you like him or me? Lou Zilings eyes were filled with mockery.
I like them all! Jing Xi toot.
Alright then. Li Xiao and I will take turns to apany you.
Wow, thats a good idea! Its decided then, you take a single number, he takes an even number, I wont be lonely every day!
Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyi looked at the two of them, dumbfounded. They thought they had gone crazy!
One a day?
Was Jing Xi going to have a harem of male pets?
It was too terrifying!
How could Lou Ziling suggest such an outrageous idea? did he really not mind sharing Jing Xi with Li Xiao?
Luo Feiyang felt that if any man dared to touch a single hair on tan Ruyis head, he would definitely fight that person to the death!
Ruyi, lets go. These two people arent very normal. Dont lead you astray!
Luo Feiyang took tan Ruyis hand and left in a hurry. He was afraid that tan Ruyi would learn from Jing Xi, one a day!
Jing Xiughed and fell on Lou Zilings body. She suddenly realized that it was so fun for Lou Ziling to have two identities!
Lou Ziling wiped Jing Xis lips with a napkin. Seeing her smile like a child, she lowered her head and kissed her forehead.Dont tell Luo Feiyang and Ruyi the truth for now. The fewer people who know about this, the better.
Even his parents didnt know that he had changed his face and be Li Xiao. Only family Jing knew about it.
Jing Xi nodded.Dont worry. Theyre still in their honeymoon phase. They dont have the time to care about who you are.
After breakfast, Jing Xi took Lou Zilings arm and strolled down the street.
They moved forward, leaving two long trails of footprints behind them.
Lou Ziling lowered her head and kissed Jing Xi from time to time. She held her hand tightly and refused to let go.
Jing Xi breathed in the fresh air and felt that everything was so beautiful!
Fortunately, she had been looking for Lou Ziling. If she had given up, she would have missed Lou Ziling for the rest of her life!
She would never know what Lou Ziling had done for her and she would never feel his love as strong as it was now.
There was a group of children having a snowball fight on the street. Snowballs flew everywhere. Some children cried when they were hit, and some fought back.
A snowball missed its target and flew in Jing Xis direction.
Lou Ziling quickly moved sideways to block the snowball for Jing Xi. The snowball hit his back.
Does it hurt? Jing Xi quickly touched his back.
Lou Ziling shook her head and replied,No. Do you want to y?
Yes! Jing Xis eyes lit up.
She really wanted to y, but she felt that it was all childrens y. It seemed childish for an adult like her to join in.
Lou Zilingughed.Lets y together. Well be in a team, and the kids will be in a team. Itll be fair.

Trantor: 549690339
The two adults had a snowball fight with a group of children and were having a lot of fun.
Lou Ziling blocked most of the snowballs for Jing Xi. He was in charge of pinching the snowballs, and Jing Xi was in charge of throwing them. Their cooperation was quite tacit.
Jing Xiughed happily. She didnt care that the snow fell into her cor.
The game didnt stop until both sides were exhausted and copsed on the snow.
The children had all gone home for lunch. Jing Xiyzily on the snow, not wanting to get up.
Her entire body was steaming hot, and her face was ruddy. She felt like she had returned to the yful age when she was young.
Are you tired?
Lou Ziling sat next to Jing Xi. He had a rare day of rxation. Fortunately, his leg was almost recovered. Otherwise, he would not be able to y around with Jing Xi.
However, after standing for a long time and moving too much, the ce where the fracture was still painful and unbearable.
Jing Xi was also worried about his leg. She shook her head and said,Im fine. Hows your leg?
Im almost done. The doctor said that I need to move around more. If I sit still, my bones will not heal easily.
If your leg hurts, Ill Carry You Home! Jing Xi said as she got up from the snow.
Lou Zilingughed. Unless he really couldnt walk anymore, he would not let Jing Xi carry him. Otherwise, he would be carrying Jing Xi for the rest of his life.
He stood up, patted the snow off his body, and reached out to Jing Xi.Lets go home.
The warm winter sun shone on Lou Zilings body and wrapped around his tall figure, making him look extra gentle.
He reached out his hand to her, making Jing Xi feel that this was the beginning of a new life for her.
She was going to officially enter his world!
She put her hand on Lou Zilings palm and stood up with his help. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed Lou Ziling. Lets go home!
Instead of going back to family Jing, they went to Lou Zilings small vi.
The vis heater was on, and it was as warm as spring. Jing Xi took off her thick down jacket, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and changed into loose andfortable home clothes.
She was more familiar with this ce than Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling was sitting on the sofa watching TV. Jing Xi walked over and threw a towel to him. Then she leaned into his arms and let him dry her hair.
Lou Zilings movements were gentle, and so was her voice.Why didnt you call me when you were taking a shower?
Why? Jing Xi asked.
I can help you shower. Ill take care of things like scrubbing you.
Jing Xi burst intoughter. Lou Ziling was not the kind of person who liked to joke. He always spoke in a serious manner, so she did not think that way.
So he was this bad!
Why do I feel like Im losing out by letting you rub me?
Its not a loss. I wont charge you anything.
No, Ill charge you! Ill be charged 100 million for a bath!
Lou Zilings eyes lit up.Okay! Ill give you 100 million Yuan. Lets go and wash up now!
He could really afford 100 million Yuan!
Jing Xi suddenly realized that she had been tricked!
No, thats not right, youve given the wrong price! One billion! No, 10 billion!
Lou Ziling indulgently pecked her red lips and said in a low voice,Ive never seen such a price increase. Youre robbing me
10 billion to buy me a bath once. If you miss it once, youll have to wait another year!
Im giving you money to bathe you? Do I have so much money that I cant finish it?
What, you think its too expensive?
Lou Ziling threw the towel away and carried Jing Xi to the bathroom.Of course its expensive. However, even if I have to go bankrupt, Ill take this bath! Get ready to take off your clothes. Ill be very careful when I give you a bath. Ill definitely provide you with good service! Where should we shower first? Chest?
Jing Xi immediately shouted,Im not washing anymore! Ive raised the price again, 100 billion to wash once!
Lou Ziling couldnt stopughing. He carried Jing Xi back to the sofa and said,ck-hearted businessman, you know that all my assets added up dont even reach 100 billion. Just you wait, I will work hard to earn money and buy you a bath! But youre not allowed to raise the price again, or Ill have to rob a bank!
Jing Xi also giggled. She held Lou Zilings face and said,No, dont work too hard. Money can never be earned. You have to spend more time with me!
Every time Jing Xi acted coquettishly, Lou Ziling basically had no resistance. Her delicate appearance made his heart flutter.
Well be living together after our engagement. Your father gave me a trial period of one year. If I can ensure your safety and happiness in this year, hell allow me to marry you. Lets get married this time next year, okay?
Really? Jing Xis eyes widened. Did my father say that? Did he even set a date for our wedding?
Lou Ziling patted her head and said softly,He didnt go into detail, but I guess he has already set the date. He asked you to stay for another year because he couldnt bear to see you get married.
Oh my God! Jing Xi burst into tears.Ive misunderstood him! Why didnt he say it out loud? I thought he didnt agree to our marriage!
Lou Ziling lowered her head and kissed Jing Xis tears, making herugh.Your dad is already very cool, why would he need to pretend? Li Xiao is only acting cool if he wears a mask. The mask he ordered for you has already been sent to the manor. You can wear it and act cool when you go back!
Jing Xi cried andughed. Her father loved her, and so did Lou Ziling. How wonderful!
She lifted Lou Zilings sleeve to wipe her tears and smiled.Youre ying two roles at once, are you addicted? Im almost suspecting that you have a split personality again!
When did I act? Im Lou Ziling, whats the rtionship between Li Xiao and me? there are two people here, dont get it wrong!
Lou Zilings words were serious and serious. Jing Xiughed so hard that she couldnt even straighten her back.
With his acting skills, he could win Best Actor!
Jing Xiughed for a while before she touched her belly and asked Lou Ziling,What are we having for lunch?
Lou Ziling followed her and touched her belly.I want to eat you.
Jing Xi hurriedly stopped his big hand, got up from his body, and ran away.Ill go cook instant noodles for you!
Lou Ziling shook her head helplessly. He had just touched her little belly through her clothes. How could she be scared away again?
She was very good at flirting with him, so why was she so shy when he was flirting with her?
There was a ttering sound from the kitchen. Lou Ziling was afraid that Jing Xi would hurt herself while cooking, so he quickly got up and went to the kitchen.
When he entered the kitchen, he saw her standing in front of the gas stove, putting on a small pot, turning on the fire, and adding water to it.
Lou Ziling walked over and hugged her from behind. She gently bit her ear.Xixi, when did you learn how to cook?
Jing Xis ear was extremely sensitive. When Lou Ziling bit her ear, her face was instantly covered with peach blossoms.
Lou Ziling thought that Jing Xis blushing face was very cute. She turned her face to the other side and bit Jing Xis other ear.
Chapter 1581
Chapter 1581: I love you
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi stepped on his foot.Its ticklish. Stop biting. Im not good at cooking. I dont know what to do now.
Lou Ziling hugged her waist tightly and blew into her ear.I saw that you were very skilled in lighting the fire and adding water, so I thought you knew how to do it!
I only know how to cook instant noodles. Didnt you say that cooking instant noodles doesnt count as cooking?
Did I say that? Then I take back my words. Youre already a master chef if you can cook instant noodles!
Then youll have to eat it even if it doesnt taste good!
Of course! Lou Ziling nodded.Ill eat whatever you cook!
Its just instant noodles. How bad can it be when you put the bread in the pot and add seasoning bags?
Moreover, he was watching from the side. The noodles wouldnt be overcooked, right?
However, it turned out that Lou Ziling had underestimated Jing Xi. She could turn simple instant noodles into a pot of porridge!
That was because she had added too many random things into it!
She had thrown all the dried fish, dried meat, and nuts into the pot on a whim.
Lou Ziling stopped her, but she still said,Its more nutritious to eat like this! I put these dried fish and meat in your refrigerator before. Its only been two or three months, so its definitely not bad!
Lou Zilings face turned green after she took a bite of the instant noodles.
Whats wrong? Its not good?
No, its very delicious!
Then hurry up and eat! Didnt you say that youll eat whatever I cook?
Lou Ziling forced a smile. Who knew that she could make such a terrible instant noodle?
Seeing his bitter face, Jing Xi grabbed his chopsticks and tasted it. Then her face turned green.Forget it, Ziling, you can do it again! I want to eat your cooking!
Instant noodles arent very nutritious. Ill take you out to eat!
No, I just want to eat the instant noodles you make. Ive always wanted to eat it when you werent here for the past two years, but I couldnt make it taste that good.
Lou Ziling could imagine her stubbornness. She must have tried to cook instant noodles countless times in this empty house.
His heart ached. He held Jing Xi in his arms and lowered his head to kiss her.
Alright, Ill cook for you.
Lou Ziling held Jing Xis hand and went back to the kitchen. He turned on the fire, boiled water, and cooked noodles.
He had not cooked instant noodles for more than two years. In the Li familys Manor, he did not need to cook by himself, and no one was worth it.
After the instant noodles were ready, Jing Xi took a bite of it without being afraid of the heat. Then she threw herself on Lou Ziling and cried.
Lou Ziling hugged her in a hurry and asked anxiously,Whats wrong? Did I get scalded? Or not good? Xixi, dont cry. Ill panic if you cry!
No, its delicious! Jing Xi sobbed. Its this taste, Ive missed it for a long, long time, and I thought I would never have it again in my life!
Lou Ziling wiped away her tears with her fingers and med herself.Its all my fault. Ill never leave you again!
Jing Xi cried for a while. She was worried that the instant noodles would not taste good if they were left too long, so she quickly stopped crying and picked up the chopsticks to finish the soup and noodles.
After eating her own, she stared at Lou Ziling S. Lou Zilings heart was so soft that he would give her his life without hesitation even if Jing Xi wanted it, let alone a bowl of noodles.
Jing Xi finished two bowls of noodles and drank thest mouthful of soup. She licked her lips and asked,Can we eat this again tonight?
Lou Ziling picked her up and walked into the bedroom.No, we can only eat one meal a day. Lets eat something else tonight.
Why are your instant noodles so good?
Theres no trick to it. You cant cook it for too long, and you cant add too many random things. You cant put all the condiments in one go either. If you want to learn, I can teach you in detail.
No, I dont want to learn.
Lou Ziling put Jing Xi on the bed andy down beside her. He held her in his arms and asked,Dont you like to eat it? Why dont you learn?
What if you dont cook for me after I learn it? Ive never known how to cook, so youll always cook for me!
Lou Ziling tapped the tip of her pretty nose.So you want to bezy! Alright, you dont have to learn, its fine as long as I can do it! You dont need to do anything, Im here for you.
When he pampered someone, he could really spoil them to the heavens. Jing Xis heart was filled with sweetness. She hugged Lou Ziling and gave him a wet kiss on the face.
Why did you carry me to the bed?
We just finished eating. We can try to exercise.
As Lou Ziling spoke, she reached into Jing Xis clothes.
His warm fingers touched Jing Xis skin, and Jing Xis face turned red.
She grabbed Lou Zilings hand in a hurry.Dont do any vigorous exercise after a meal!
Violent? How violent? If you want it to be too intense, you might have to wait for a while. I will only have the strength to do it after my leg ispletely healed.
Lou Ziling smiled ambiguously, his fingers caressing Jing Xis bare back.
Jing Xis face and ears turned red from his long string of violent words. Shey on Lou Zilings chest and bit here and there. She kept asking,Is it intense enough? Do you want it to be more intense?
Lou Ziling felt that she was so funny and exciting!
Her chest felt numb and a little painful, but also a little itchy.
He had originally wanted to hold Jing Xi in his arms and lie in bed for a nap, but now he was almost burning with desire after being bitten by her!
He patted Jing Xis back and said with a smile,Dont mess around. If you bite me again, I might not be able to control myself and want to eat you!
He calmed Jing Xi down and stopped touching her clothes. Instead, he put his arm around her waist and rested with her.
Jing Xi had gotten used to Lou Zilings arms. She moved and found afortable position. She hugged Lou Zilings waist and fell asleep.
When she woke up, the sky was still bright, but Lou Ziling was gone.
Once, she had slept on this bed alone. When she woke up, she would find herself in this empty bed.
It was as if she had just had a sweet dream, and when she woke up, the person in the dream had disappeared again.
Jing Xis heart felt empty. She ran out of the bedroom without even wearing her shoes.Lou Ziling! Lou Ziling!
Lou Ziling walked in and looked up at Jing Xi on the second floor.Xixi, Im here.
Jing Xi ran down the stairs and threw herself into his arms.I couldnt find you just now, so I thought you didnt want me anymore!
Her attachment and dependence were too obvious. Lou Zilings heart trembled. She swore in a low voice,I love you, Xixi! I wont leave you again. If I disobey you, no one will love me in this life and I will be lonely for the rest of my life!

Chapter 1582: I think youve changed
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi raised her head and saw the determination and seriousness in Lou Zilings eyes.
This was the first time Lou Ziling had confessed to her so passionately.
She had thought that she would never hear Lou Ziling say I love you again.
She didnt expect him to say it so quickly!
Jing Xis heart rippled. She touched Lou Zilings face and said in a low voice,Ive said it before, you either marry me, or youll remain single! I wont give you to any other woman.
Her fingers were slender and soft, covering his face and giving him a wonderful touch.
Lou Ziling held her finger and kissed it. Then, she put a coat on her and pulled her outside.
I piled it up when you were asleep. Do you like it?
Jing Xi looked at the snowman in the garden and was surprised and happy.I like it! You know how to build a snowman?
Lou Ziling raised her eyebrows,is there anything I cant do? Tell me, Ill learn!
No, youre an all-rounder!
Jing Xiughed happily. She did not mean that Lou Ziling would not do such a thing. She just thought that Lou Ziling would not do such a childish thing.
She circled around the snowman happily and even put her hat on the snowmans head.
Its so beautiful!
Jing Xi smiled andplimented her, but Lou Ziling suddenly said,Not as pretty as you. When you stand in a crowd, I always notice you at first nce.
Jing Xi walked up to him and put her arms around his waist. She blinked and asked,Whats wrong with you today? you seem to be confessing to me all the time. My heart is beating so fast that its almost out of normal.
Its nothing. Youll get used to it in the future.
Lou Ziling never knew how to say sweet words. He was learning to express himself so that Jing Xi wouldnt always suspect that he was leaving her again.
He pulled Jing Xi back into the room and took her to the balcony to look at the snow.
In the distance was the deep blue ocean, which was boundless. Nearby was the pure white snow, Holy and cold. The clear sky was cloudless, as if it had been washed, and it was unbelievably clear.
Once, they had stood side by side like this and watched the scenery from the balcony.
Jing Xi had been looking at this world for two years. At first, she thought it was bleak and quiet. But when Lou Ziling was with her, she could feel the breath of spring even in winter.
The snow, the sea, and the sky are all so beautiful!
Jing Xi sighed in satisfaction. She leaned on Lou Zilings shoulder and stared into the distance.
Lou Ziling turned her head, pinched her chin, and kissed her on the lips.
No scenery around them couldpare to a single strand of Jing Xis hair. She was the most beautiful scenery just by standing there quietly.
She was a feast for the eyes, and he always wanted to taste her beauty.
Lou Zilings kiss was very restrained. He just slowly guided Jing Xi and patiently taught her to kiss.
He chased after her tongue and entangled it with hers.
Their breaths were intertwined. Jing Xi was melted by Lou Zilings gentleness, and her eyes became a little blurred.
But just as she was engrossed in it, Lou Ziling released her.
She was a little disappointed, but she was too embarrassed to ask him for more.
Lou Ziling chuckled in his heart, but he deliberately stopped kissing her. He wanted to make Jing Xi yearn for his kiss.
Now that she had a desire, she would not reject his touch and depth.
She was going to be his wife. Could it be that she could only kiss in the future and not take the next step?
This obviously wouldnt work. Lou Ziling wanted to make her his woman. She wanted to possess her deeply and leave her own mark in her body.
Jing Xi didnt realize Lou Zilings little trick. She touched her lips, blushed, and asked in a low voice,Why are you getting better at kissing? Did you secretly practice behind my back?
Lou Ziling didnt know whether tough or cry. Do I practice kissing with air?
Maybe hes practicing with some pretty girl?
Ive only practiced with a beautiful woman. When others see that Im crippled, they all stay far away from me. She was the only one who insisted on following me, so I followed her home.
Oh, Jing Xiughed.Is this Beautys surname Jing?
Youre so smart. You guessed it right!
Lou Ziling touched her soft long hair and said with a smile.
Happy times always passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was night.
Jing Xi called Shangguan ning and told her that she wouldnt be going home tonight. She blushed when she heard Shangguan nings words.
For the whole night, Jing Xi was worried that Lou Ziling would be wild and eat her up, but he was very well-behaved!
He didnt move his hands, just gently holding her waist and holding her in his arms.
Instead, he kissed her on the forehead without a trace of lust and said,good night.
This was indeed the way Jing Xi had wanted to get along with Lou Ziling, but now that Lou Ziling had really done it, she felt that something was missing.
It was the same for the first and second days. On the third day, Jing Xi finally couldnt stand it anymore.
Lou Ziling, why do I feel like you dont love me anymore?
He called her Lou Ziling and stopped calling her Ziling. His little woman was angry!
Lou Zilingughed in her heart, but her face remained calm.No, Ive always loved you. It has never changed.
But I think youve changed!
What has changed? Tell me and Ill turn back.
Jing Xi opened her mouth, but swallowed her words.
Was she going to say,why arent you a beast anymore?
What if he turned back into a ferocious beast?
Lou Ziling flew back to city W while Jing Xi was still struggling.
He went back first and prepared to harvest the fruits of hisbor.
Jing Xi returned home, feeling depressed.
Why didnt you go to city W with Lou Ziling? Shangguan ning asked curiously.
He asked me to go back with him, but I didnt agree.
Why? Quarreling?
No, but I think its more serious than a quarrel.
Shangguan ning got serious. She took her daughters hand and asked, Whats wrong?
I think he doesnt love me anymore. Hes a little perfunctory with me and doesnt like to be close to me anymore.
For example?
For example For example He doesnt Kiss Me Much anymore, and he always hugs me when he sleeps. He used to He wasnt like this in the past.
Jing Xi was too embarrassed to describe Lou Zilings madness, but Shangguan ning understood what she meant.
Shangguan ning looked at her twenty-year-old daughter and said, Didnt you forbid him from touching it? Why are you despising him now that hes done it? The fact that he didnt touch you is enough to prove that he cherishes you!
Yeah, Jing Xi said worriedly,I didnt want him to touch it, but it doesnt seem right if he really doesnt touch it! I cant put my finger on it. I just feel that hes not as impulsive as he was before.

Trantor: 549690339
Shangguan ning felt helpless. Wasnt it a good thing that Lou Ziling had be restrained?
Lou Ziling wasnt in a hurry, but Jing Xi was!
If you have any questions, you can tell Lou Ziling. Dont cause unnecessary misunderstandings likest time.
Yes, yes, I know. Im just hesitating whether I should ask him to change back.
Jing Xi knew that Shangguan ning was referring to the incident with song Xin. At that time, even Shangguan ning thought that she had fallen in love with song Xin, let alone Lou Ziling.
The next day, Jing Xi left A city and flew to W city.
Lou Ziling went to pick her up. When she saw hering out of the VIP passage, she hugged her and kissed her forehead.If you didnte, I would have gone to your house to pick you up.
Jing Xi didnt say anything. She got into the car with Lou Ziling and went back to the Li family manor.
She didnt say a word until she entered her own bedroom.
Whats wrong? Lou Ziling asked in a low voice.Are you not happy to see me?
Jing Xi shook her head and hesitated for a long time before she said in a low voice,Why dont you Touch me anymore?
How do you want to touch it? Arent I hugging you right now?
Thats not what I meant. I mean You Stop touching me.
Im afraid youll be angry if I touch you.
Im not angry, Jing Xi said, almost burying her head in her chest.
You wont cry?
Dont Be too violent, and I wont cry
Lou Ziling felt helpless. How was he violent?
He had only bitten her a little too hard thest time, but this girl still remembered?
Before she could react, Lou Ziling had already pressed her onto the bed and kissed her hard.
His hands lingered around her waist, causing her to tremble.
Xixi, tell me if it hurts. Lets take it slow. Youll like it
Lou Zilings restrained voice rang in Jing Xis ears. Jing Xi was so embarrassed that she curled up.
She was still embarrassed. However, she had been longing for Lou Ziling to be close to her for the past few days. At this moment, her desire to be close to Lou Ziling prevailed. Therefore, she did not push Lou Ziling away.
Lou Zilings eyes darkened. He tried to control his movements so that he would not scare Jing Xi again.
He slowly took off Jing Xis clothes, piece by piece.
Her legs were long and slender, and her fair skin exuded the aura of youth.
Her two feet were as beautiful as a pair of art pieces. Her toes were round and cute, and her pale pink nails had a healthy luster, exuding a deadly temptation.
Lou Zilings hand slowly slid across Jing Xis thighs and calves. He lowered his head and kissed her Jade-like toes, but it made Jing Xi tremble and chuckle.
Lou Ziling, its so itchy!
Lou Ziling scratched her foot on purpose. Jing Xi smiled and instinctively retracted her foot.
Stop scratching, its too itchy. Lou Ziling, youre so bad! Im going to scratch you too!
Lou Ziling teased her for a while to ease her tension and get her emotions back on track. Then, she kissed her again.
Jing Xi held Lou Zilings head. Wherever Lou Ziling touched, she felt an electric current running through her body. It was as if he had set her on fire, and she was almost losing her mind.
At one point, when Lou Ziling bit her a little harder, Jing Xi would wake up a little. But soon, she was conquered by him again. She was immersed in the beauty he had created and could not extricate herself.
She was only left with her undergarments, but Lou Ziling did not take off anything. He was still wearing a white shirt and a pair of well-ironed trousers.
She was in a sorry state, but he was well-dressed!
This is not fair!
Jing Xi tried to take off Lou Zilings clothes. It took her a long time to unbutton one button. Her whole body was soft and her attention waspletely attracted by Lou Ziling. She could not even do such a simple action as unbuttoning.
Lou Ziling didnt want to help her. He just treated it as fun. He let Jing Xi unbutton her clothes slowly while he tried to find her sensitive points to ease her tension.
Jing Xi finally took off Lou Zilings shirt after a long time. Sheined,Why do you have so many buttons on your shirt
Lou Ziling chuckled. It was a good thing that she liked to take off his shirt.
She was slowlying to her senses and knew how to caress his back, feeling disgusted by the obstruction of his clothes.
Xixi, he said, holding Jing Xis hand.Help me take off my pants too
Lou Zilings upper body was exposed. His skin was very white but he looked very strong. His muscles were smooth and full of strength.
Jing Xis face was already red from embarrassment. She refused to help Lou Ziling take off her clothes, so she buried her face in the pillow and was too embarrassed toe out.
Lou Ziling didnt force her anymore. It wasnt easy to get this result today!
He didnt take off his clothes. He just hugged Jing Xi and kept kissing her.
It wasnt until Jing Xi had be soft again that he reached out to take off Jing Xis underwear.
Jing Xi was shocked. She quickly covered herself with the quilt and begged,No, Ziling, stop
Lou Ziling looked at the shy little woman and wanted to eat her up immediately.
However, he couldnt bear to do it. He was afraid that she would be angry and even more afraid that she would reject being close to him in the future.
Lou Ziling wrapped her in a nket and said in a hoarse voice,Alright, Ill listen to you. If you dont like it, then dont take it. When you want it, remember to tell me.
Oh, oh Jing Xi nodded in a panic.
Lou Ziling stopped moving and just held her gently. Jing Xi felt relieved, but she was really scared just now. She didnt know why, but the panic in her heart was indescribable.
She wasnt a timid person, but she was shy and afraid of this kind of thing, and she didnt want to bear it.
Could it be that she had watched too many of those ridiculous movies? The woman inside was screaming as if she was about to die, leaving her with a heavy psychological shadow.
Jing Xi wrapped herself in the nket and whispered,Thank you
The fire in Lou Zilings eyes hadnt disappeared yet. He pinched Jing Xis chin and said,Silly girl, why are you thanking me? maybe I was too impatient.
After a while, Lou Ziling bit Jing Xi and got up helplessly. He went to the bathroom with a bitter smile and took a cold shower.
When he came out again, Jing Xi had already put on her clothes.
When she saw Lou Ziling, she couldnt help but think of the passionate scene just now. Her fair skin blushed shyly.
Lou Ziling lifted her chin and pecked her lips. She warned her,In the future, youre not allowed to doubt my love for you, and youre not allowed to tease me again. I cant guarantee that I can hold it in every time.
I won t! I won t! Jing Xi nodded. Ill be well-behaved in the future!
It was rare for her to be so obedient. Lou Ziling smiled and held her hand. Lets go and try on the clothes. Our engagement dress is here. Youll definitely look beautiful in it!

There were several styles of gowns, and Jing Xi tried on every one of them. Lou Ziling said that every one of them looked good, so Jing Xi was at a loss. She didnt know which one to choose.
Lou Ziling looked at her in her off-shoulder white chiffon dress. She was as beautiful as a fairy who didnt belong in the mortal world. She felt that what she had done to Jing Xi was sphemy.
He ran his fingers through Jing Xis long hair and said,If you like it, we can all stay. You can change at home.
Jing Xi looked at the long dress dragging on the ground and couldnt help but smile.How can we do that? this kind of gown is only for special asions. Its not convenient to wear it at home. Itll get dirty after a short walk.
Whats so inconvenient about it? I can help you lift the hem of your dress and wash it for you. Just wear it and dont worry about anything else.
Lou Ziling kissed her cheeks.You look beautiful in this. I feel like a fairy. Im too embarrassed to touch you.
Jing Xi looked at herself in the mirror. She was tall and slender, with her shoulders exposed and her waist slim. The white dress wrapped around her body, showing off her most beautiful figure.
She didnt feel like a fairy, but she felt that she had finally grown up! She could get married!
It would be great if the engagement and the wedding were held together!
Lou Zilingughed,are you in such a hurry to marry me? After we get married, well have to fulfill our duties as husband and wife. Are you sure you can do it?
Didnt you say to take it slow? I dont care, I want to have a status first, then youll be mine!
You dont have to take it, its always yours.
Lou Ziling wanted to have Jing Xi first!
As the two of them were talking, someone outside respectfully said,Young master, miss is crying and asking to see you. She said she has a gift for you.
Let her cry for a while longer! Lou Ziling said indifferently.
The person outside responded with a yes and then left quietly.
Does Li Jing know that Im back?
Yes, she still has spies in the manor to pass on messages to her.
Then why didnt you chase this person away?
Lou Ziling fondled Jing Xis soft long hair lovingly and twirled it between his fingers. He said softly,
Ive already chased away many. You see, there are only a few servants left in the manor. But we cant drive them all away. If we keep these spies, Ill be able to get some clues from them from time to time and find out where Li Jings assets are. If we drive them all away, well really be unable to find anything.
No wonder there were so few people in the Li familys Manor!
Should I go and see Li Jing? I think Ill be more useful than you!
Lou Ziling smiled.Sure. You can try. But be careful. Dont get too close to her.
Aiya, dont worry! Li Jing doesnt even let me get close to her now. Shes so scared that shell hide whenever she sees me.
Jing Xi changed her clothes and went to the kitchen to get a lunchbox. She brought Li Jing a mess of desserts and went to Li Jings courtyard.
Third sister Li, Im here to see you again!
Li Jing shivered reflexively when she heard the voice.
The door opened, and Jing Xi walked in briskly.Are you hungry? I brought you some food!
Ive already given Lou Ziling the money. Why arent you leaving?
Li Jings voice was sinister. Her beautiful face had returned to normal, and the scary goosebumps had disappeared. Her skin was smooth and delicate again, and her arms were back to normal.
She didnt want to be ugly anymore!
So, he had to get rid of Jing Xi, no matter what price he had to pay!
I left, but Im back. Ive missed you after not seeing you for a few days. Your face ispletely healed, and theres no scar. It seems that the medicine we developed wasnt very sessful.
Jing Xi put the lunchbox on the table. Seeing Li Jings dark eyes, she knew that Li Jing was thinking of another dirty trick.
Isnt it good to be alive?
He had to court death!
You should return what you owe Lou Ziling. I wont make things difficult for you and let you go.
Leave?
Hahaha, this is my house! Li Jingughed maniacally. It was the Li family, the W city, not the A city that was dominated by the Jing family! I wont leave this ce even if I die. This Manor is passed down from the Li familys ancestors and is priceless. In your dreams!
As the price of thend rose, the value of the Li familys Manor was immeasurable.
It was now under Li Jings name. Even if she wanted to transfer the ownership to Lou Ziling, she would have to pay a huge fee.
Go back and tell Lou Ziling that you have vited the agreement with me and returned. Hell be waiting to collect your corpse, hahaha!
Its still not certain whose corpse were going to collect!
Jing Xis tone was still rxed. She had always been wary of Li Jing, and now that she was about to go crazy, she became even more vignt.
Lou Ziling wont kill me. Most of the Li familys assets are in my hands. He only got less than one percent. If I die, these assets will immediately be transferred to someone elses name. Ive even written my will and put it in a safe ce, youll never find it!
He even wrote his will. It seems like hes really prepared to die.
Im leaving, Jing Xi said lightly and quickly got up to leave.
Li Jing curled up on the bed in shock. Why didnt Jing Xi torture her this time?
That shouldnt be the case, there must be something missing!
After waiting for a while, Li Jing was relieved to see that there was no abnormal reaction from her body.
As for the snacks that Jing Xi had brought, she didnt even touch them, for fear that they were poisonous.
However, when night fell, Li Jing felt her body heat up. She was so thirsty that she had the urge to tear her clothes off.
She got up from the bed and drank arge ss of cold water. However, not only did it not relieve her thirst, but it also made her feel hotter!
This is bad!
Even the water was a problem!
But when did Jing Xi drug her?
Li Jings eyes suddenly stopped on the lunchbox. She staggered over, opened the lunchbox, and took out a piece of mung bean cake. She put it under her nose and sniffed it for a long time. Finally, she was sure that the smell of the aphrodisiac wasing from these desserts!
No wonder it was so slow!
No wonder she didnt notice!
Li Jing felt ufortable all over and desperately wanted to find a man to cool her down. However, none of Lou Zilings men paid her any attention.
She was getting more and more thirsty, more and more irritable, and more and more ufortable. Her physiological needs could not be satisfied, making her feel extremely empty.
The long winter night, Li Jing was drenched in sweat and found it difficult to fall asleep. She tossed and turned until dawn, but the fire of desire in her body had not been vented. She was still in pain.
He had never used such a trick after being trapped by Lou Ziling for so long, but Jing Xi, a girl, had used it without any hesitation!
Li Jing had experienced love before, and she knew how wonderful it was, so she yearned for it even more!
Chapter 1585
Chapter 1585: Are you robbing me of my money or my body?
Trantor: 549690339
She had not had a man for two years!
Now that the desire that had umted had been ignited, Li Jing couldnt stop it even if she wanted to.
However, no one could help her solve it, so she could only bear the burning feeling of anxiety.
She thought that she would be able to get through it very quickly, but she did not expect that it would be the same for three days in a row, almost torturing her to death!
What was burning with desire?
What did it mean to die by exploding?
What was a fate worse than death?
Jing Xi had made Li Jing suffer three different kinds of torture in three days!
On the fourth day, the old Butler came to bring her food. When Li Jing saw him, she almost pounced on him and took off his clothes!
The old Butler was frightened. He had a wife!
Had the young miss gone crazy? This was too desperate!
The Butler ran away in a panic. From his speed, one could not tell that he was in his sixties!
As soon as the housekeeper left, Li Jing gave herself a tight p to wake herself up.
If she were to have physical contact with an old man in her sixties while she was unconscious, she would be disgusted to death when she woke up!
She only liked young and handsome men. She would never allow old and ugly men to touch her!
In the secret room, Lou Ziling was drying Jing Xis hair with a towel.
After he was almost done, he used the hairdryer to help her blow it half dry. Then, he took the Cowhornb and carefullybed it for her.
Jing Xi was wearing loose rose-red home clothes and was veryfortable with Lou Zilings service.
You drugged Li Jing, right? My subordinate said that she has been meowing like a cat for the past few days. When she saw the old Butler, she wanted to pounce on him. The Butler was so scared that he didnt dare to send her food.
Just a little bit.
Jing Xi smiled.Shes too weak in this area. Ive given my brother this medicine, but he didnt have any reaction!
Lou Zilings hand stoppedbing her hair. She started to pity Jing Rui.
How could there be such a sister who would actually use her own brother to test medicine!
This Please dont use it on me. I dont think my willpower in this area is very good!
Jing Xi chuckled and rolled her eyes. She said mysteriously,Why dont I try it on myself? After using this, I feel like Ill be very happy and wont feel pain at all!
Lou Zilings expression turned cold. Hurry up and throw away all this rubbish, youre not allowed to use it! Especially when Im not at home!
He didnt think that Li Jings willpower was weak. On the contrary, this womans willpower was the strongest he had ever seen in his life!
If even Li Jing couldnt resist the drug, Jing Xi would be even more so.
If he wanted Jing Xi, he had to make sure that she was awake. He wanted her to be willing and happy with him, not with drugs.
This medicine was too dangerous. What if it was not used properly and Jing Xi fell into it?
It was soon the end of the month. Today was the engagement day between family Jing and family li. Rednterns were hung up in the Li familys Manor and the whole city W was in an uproar.
In A city, a long line of cars left family Jing and headed for the airport.
A few hourster, another long line of cars set off from the airport. They picked up Jing Yichen and the others and headed for the Li family manor.
In order to protect Jing Xis privacy, Jing Yichen chose to let Jing Xi and Lou Ziling get engaged in a low-key way.
There were very few people invited to the engagement, but the news was published in all major newspapers.
Everyone knew that the only daughter of family Jing had married into family li.
Lou Zilings parents did note. Only some distant rtives of the Li family who were of higher seniority came.
Those rtives were only there to make up the numbers. The only ones who were actually attending the banquet were Li Jing and her substitute, Li Wu.
Although the engagement was low-key, Jing Xi still felt very happy.
Her parents and brothers were here, and that was enough.
As for the rest of the people, she basically didnt know them anyway. If they came, she would have to entertain them one by one, so she might as well note.
She was wearing the engagement ring that Lou Ziling had made for her and was drinking red wine with a smile on her face. She was already drunk halfway through the banquet.
Lou Ziling sent her back to her room. Seeing her blushing cheeks, Lou Ziling couldnt help but kiss her. Then, she turned around reluctantly and went back to the banquet to take care of family Jing.
Jing Yichen and the others didnt stay in the Li familys house for long. They left W city and went back to A city.
Lou Ziling was also a little drunk. After sending them off, he hurried back to his room to see Jing Xi.
However, the moment he entered the room, he immediately sobered up!
Jing Xi had disappeared!
Lou Zilings face turned pale. He had searched everywhere, but he could not find Jing Xi.
He quickly turned around and went to Li Jings courtyard.
He kicked the door open and said in a cold voice,Wheres Jing Xi? Speak!
I gave her some of the medicine she gave me. By now, the medicine should have taken effect. She might be crying and begging for sex under some man. Hehe, do you like my engagement gift?
Lou Ziling felt all the blood in his body rush to his head. In a fit of anger, he kicked Li Jing out of the room and into the yard.
The crisp sound of bones breaking was heard. Li Zhi spat out arge mouthful of blood and almost fainted from the pain.
She tried her best to support her body and sneered with blood flowing from the corner of her mouth,Lou Ziling, you still cant bear to touch her, right? Hahaha, you werent her first man, and she made you a cuckold on the day of their engagement. What a great joy! Maybe shell get pregnant tonight. You dont have to do anything and youll get a son for free!
Lou Ziling walked to her side and stepped on her face. With a little force, her tender skin started to bleed.
Tell me, where is she? If you dont tell me, Ill take your eyes and ears away immediately!
Lou Ziling squatted down and took out a knife from somewhere. The sharp de cut Li Jings ear and blood immediately oozed out.
Li Zhi screamed in pain, but she refused to tell him where Jing Xi was.She must die! I must kill her. Lou Ziling, give up! Even if you kill me today, I wont say a word!
Lou Ziling stood up slowly. Her eyes were red.If anything happens to her, Ill tear you into a thousand pieces!
He left Li Jings courtyard and gathered his men to conduct a thorough search of the entire Manor.
If Li Jings men had wanted to take Jing Xi out, it was impossible to leave no traces behind!
Lou Ziling went crazy and was surprisingly efficient. He soon found the person who had sent Jing Xi out of the manor.
Following the clues, Lou Ziling and her men drove to several possible ces to search.
It had been three hours since Jing Xi had disappeared. Lou Ziling was in a state of anger and panic.
Xixi, wait for me, dont let anything happen to you
Jing Xi woke up in a daze, feeling extremely hot. She opened her eyes and saw that she was lying in a car with her hands and feet tied up. A burly man was driving the car.
Jing Xi couldnt help but sigh. Li Jing must have done it.
It had been a long time since she had been kidnapped!
Hey, uncle, do you want money or sex?
Chapter 1586
Chapter 1586: Heartache
Trantor: 549690339
The man jumped in shock when he heard her speak!
Didnt the other party say that he had already drugged her with a sufficient amount of medicine and that she would not wake up?
However, when he turned to look at this delicate beauty, all the mans panic disappeared. What was the use of her waking up?
He could knock down a weak girl with just a breath!
Its more interesting to y when youre sober!
Hearing her scream, cry, and beg, those few brothers of his liked it!
Little sister, dont be afraid. I will take good care of you! Hahaha, youre quite brave, daring to ask me if Im robbing you of your money or your body? Its mainly about sex. As for money, the person who sold you has already given you arge sum!
Jing Xi sat up slowly, resisting the unbearable heat in her body to keep her mind clear.
Im not afraid. Youre the one who should be afraid. In the future, dont do such outrageous things, or retribution wille very quickly!
The man sneered,Ive done many atrocious things, but Im still alive and well! Youre kind, but now that youve fallen into my hands, you wont be able to live for long!
What, not only do you want to rape me, but you also want to y with your life!
Jing Xis tone was rxed, as if she was chatting with an old friend. She did not look like she had been kidnapped at all.
Ive been living afortable life recently. My fianc has spoiled me. I dont know if I can win in a fight. Why dont we have a fight?
The man was stunned. He mmed on the brakes and stopped the car by the side of the road. He turned around and looked at Jing Xi with a puzzled look.
Why did he feel that there was something strange about this girl?
What kind of girl could remain so calm after being kidnapped? He had kidnapped countless people, both men and women. They would cry and make a fuss, some would curse, and some would cry.
Why was it that this girl in front of him looked beautiful and fresh, but her brain was not working well?
Did he use too much medicine and damage his brain?
He was still staring at Jing Xi in confusion when he was suddenly kicked in the head.
Jing Xi gave him a kick and nimbly jumped from the back to the front of the car. She sat in the front passenger seat and gave the man a round of kicks.
The cars window was shattered by her kick, and she kicked the man out of the window.
The man was dumbfounded when hended on the ground!
He had clearly tied the girls hands and feet. When did she break free?
How could she be so strong!
Was she really a girl?
He was furious. He endured the pain and got up from the ground. He took out a knife and pulled Jing Xi out of the car.
Jing Xi used his strength to do a backflip. The man was thrown to the ground, and she fell from the air. She took a few steps back before she could stand firm.
Sigh, she was still under the influence of the drug, otherwise she could havended steadily.
She had practiced this move with herbat coach many times and was able to perform it well.
She searched in her clothes for a while and took out a ss bottle the size of a thumb. She poured out the fine particles and swallowed them.
She had been on guard against Li Jing. If she were Li Jing, today would be the best time to make a move!
She wasnt worried that she couldnt defeat the burly man, but she was a little worried about Lou Ziling.
He must have gone crazy when he saw that she was missing!
She hoped that he wouldnt kill Li Jing on impulse. If he did, hundreds of billions of dors would be gone, and all the money he had invested would be in vain!
Jing Xi was about to knock the man down and drive back, but more than a dozen men suddenly appeared and slowly surrounded her.
If she was in a good state, it would not be a problem for her to beat up these men.
However, her limbs were weak now, and her reaction was much slower than usual. Otherwise, she wouldnt have been dragged out of the car by that man just now.
Li Jing must have given her more than one drug. The antidote she had taken just now could only relieve her heat, but it couldnt eliminate the symptoms of her weakness.
Third brother, youre too useless. You were beaten up by a little girl? If our brothers didnte, wouldnt you have let her run away?
Blood was flowing from the corner of third brothers mouth. He crawled up from the ground and said with a face full of anger,This girl is very strange, you all should be careful!
He and his brothers surrounded Jing Xi. Just as they were about to touch Jing Xi, a few ck leagers whizzed over. The tires made a harsh friction sound, and the cars suddenly stopped at high speed.
Seven or eight people alighted from the cars. The man in the lead was tall and strong. His face was extremely pale and there was a terrifying scar on the right side of his face. He looked like the god of death from hell.
His killing intent was biting cold, and his voice was as cold as the ice in winter. Dont leave a single one, kill them all!
The next moment, the sound of gunfire pierced the sky. More than a dozen aggressive men fell one by one at Jing Xis feet.
Lou Ziling stepped forward, covered her eyes, and hugged her tightly.Xixi, are you okay? Are you hurt?
Jing Xi could clearly hear Lou Zilings voice trembling. She could feel his body shaking. He was hugging her so tightly that he almost broke her waist.
Her eyes were covered, so she couldnt see the blood, but she could smell it in the air.
What an idiot. She was not that timid. Jing Yichen had never avoided her when he wanted someone dead. She had never killed anyone, but she had seen many bloody scenes.
She buried her face in Lou Zilings arms and said in a low voice,Im fine, dont worry. You came just in time. They havent had time to make a move yet!
Lou Ziling picked Jing Xi up and brought her into the car.
Fortunately, he had found the right direction, or he would have been toote!
He tucked Jing Xis hair behind her ear with trembling fingers and checked her body bit by bit to see if she was injured.
Lou Zilings heart ached when she saw the obvious scars on her neck and the traces of her wrists and ankles being tied up.
He kissed Jing Xis face with red eyes.Im sorry, Xixi. Im sorry. Its all because of me. Ill kill Li Jing as soon as I get back. I dont want any of her assets. Youre enough for me!
He had kept Li Jing alive because he was afraid that if he couldnt find Jing Xi, he would be able to get some information from her.
Jing Xi looked at Lou Ziling, who was still wearing a human skin mask. She gently touched his face and said,Im fine. Li Jing didnt want to kill me because of you. Im the one who made her suffer so much. Li Jing had to be kept alive. How could he let her die so easily? Im going to take my revenge slowly.
Well discuss herter! Youre burning up, Xixi. Li Jing said she gave you some medicine. Lets go to the hospital immediately!
Jing Xi rubbed her head against Lou Zilings body. He smelled so good that she was a little fascinated.Why are we going to the hospital? we can just go home.
Chapter 1587
Chapter 1587: Psychological shadow
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling couldnt win Jing Xis argument, so she could only listen to her and take her back to the manor.
He carried Jing Xi all the way into the secret chamber.
Jing Xi tore off Lou Zilings mask and leaned over to kiss his pale lips.
Lou Zilings lips used to be a beautiful red, but tonight, they had turned pale. It showed how strong his fear was.
Jing Xi put her arms around Lou Zilings neck and said,Ziling, were engaged today. Carry me to the bed.
Lou Ziling carried her to the bed and allowed Jing Xi to kiss her wildly, but she did not move.
Jing Xi kissed him for a while, but he didnt respond. She bit him.Why arent you cooperating with me? Im so hot, quickly take off my clothes!
Lou Ziling held her little hand that was burning fire and said in a low voice,Ill cooperate with you when youre sober. Not now, youre under the control of drugs.
Im not under the control of the drug. Its my own intention now. Its just that the drug made me a little more excited.
Jing Xis voice was soft and charming, and it went straight into Lou Zilings heart.
But he knew that Jing Xi was not ready for it. A few days ago, she was still very ashamed and had an inexplicable fear of it. It was impossible for it to disappear all of a sudden.
She was a girl who was not afraid of anything, but she was afraid of sex. Although Lou Ziling did not know the reason, he had the fear of not being able to touch it.
So, he would rather endure it than force Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling lowered his head and asked Jing Xi in detail, but he did not go too deep. He just wanted to tell Jing Xi that he loved her.
Jing Xi liked Lou Zilings gentle treatment. She had taken the antidote and her body was resistant to all kinds of aphrodisiacs, so her desperate desire was much lighter.
This was because she loved to develop all kinds of unorthodox things. Using small animals as experimental data was always inurate, so she often used herself as an experiment.
After many experiments, her body would develop a resistance to the drug.
After a long time, Jing Xi fell asleep in Lou Zilings arms.
Lou Zilings heart still ached when she saw the cut on her neck.
If Jing Xi had taken the initiative, he might not have been able to control himself. But today, he had no desire for Jing Xi at all. As long as he thought of how he had almost lost her, he could not take advantage of her being drugged to bully her.
Fortunately, she had strong self-protection abilities. Fortunately, she had experienced countless major situations and could face such dangerous things calmly.
Ever since he had brought her back, she had not even cried, as if what had just happened was just a trivial matter.
Lou Ziling felt a little proud. His little woman was different from the others. She was very strong!
He looked at Jing Xis sleeping face and hoped that when he had a daughter in the future, he would teach her to be just like Jing Xi and not be afraid of anything.
The night passed. In the morning, Jing Xi woke up in Lou Zilings arms.
She opened her eyes and saw Lou Zilings handsome face. She couldnt help but smile and kiss his chin.
Seeing that Lou Ziling was not awake, she kissed his neck again. She looked up and saw that he was still asleep. Then, she lowered her body and kissed his chest.
Lou Zilings body trembled. He suddenly held Jing Xi in his arms and said in a restrained voice,Dont mess around!
Jing Xi toot,so you were pretending to be asleep! You dont like what I did just now?
Lou Ziling gritted her teeth and looked down at Jing Xi, who was ying a prank.I dont like it!
Oh, really? But Ive seen men like it in movies!
Lou Zilings face froze. She lifted Jing Xis chin and asked,What movie did you watch that has such a scene?
Jing Xi felt a little guilty and said weakly,Its Those verymon movies, the kind of intense action movies
Lou Zilings head hurt. He pped Jing Xis butt and said,Youre not allowed to look at it in the future! Who allowed you to look at these messy things? When did you start reading it?
Jing Xi felt a little aggrieved after being hit on the butt.When I was young, someone set up a stall in A city to sell CDs. He said that they were not suitable for children, so I bought two CDs and watched them!
Lou Ziling didnt know whether tough or cry. She said it was not suitable for children, but she still wanted to buy it!
The DVD seller was really heartless. He was even willing to sell such a young child?
I only found outter that I made a loss buying it. Its free online! The quality of the graphics was even better. I looked at a few of them and found them boring, so I gave up.
Lou Ziling almost vomited blood. Not only did she buy the disc, but she also searched for it on the inte?
Did she find it boring?
Thats why she rejected doing that with him?
Xixi, tell me the truth. Are you disgusted by all that nonsense? is that why you dont like that kind of thing?
Jing Xi nodded.Yeah, I think its disgusting. And those women are screaming so miserably! I only like to kiss and hug, I dont like to take off my clothes.
The mystery that Lou Ziling had been puzzled about for a long time was finally solved.
Heughed bitterly. This girl was enlightened about sex too early, which left a psychological shadow!
It was all that CD sellers fault for harming underaged children!
It was originally a beautiful thing, but it was distorted!
Lou Ziling touched Jing Xis hair and said in a low voice,In the future, forget about all these. Youve been misled. We cant just kiss and hug, we have to go one step further.
Lou Ziling was not in a hurry now. He had found the root of the problem and could slowly guide Jing Xi.
He chuckled, thinking that she was still a child, innocent and cute.
She had misunderstood the rtionship between men and women for many years!
To think that she thought she knew a lot!
Jing Xi didnt know why Lou Ziling was smiling, but she liked to see him smile. When he smiled, all the coldness and arrogance would disappear, and he would be covered with ayer of warmth and gentleness.
Shey in Lou Zilings arms and whispered,I dont just like to kiss and hug now. I seem to especially like taking off your clothes. I feel very happy when we are very intimate.
Lou Zilings hand slowly reached into her clothes, from her waist to her back, and gently stroked her.I lied just now. I really liked it when you kissed me.
Jing Xi followed Lou Zilings example and stroked his back. She asked him curiously,Do you like this?
Her hands were soft and warm, and when they touched his back, they causedyers of electricity to run through him.
Lou Ziling couldnt help but bite Jing Xis lips.Its veryfortable, I like it very much, continue!
Jing Xi was bold in other things, but she was very shy when it came to this kind of thing. Lou Ziling asked her to continue, but she was so nervous that she didnt know where to put her hands.
She retracted her hand and identally touched a certain part of Lou Zilings body.

Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling snorted and her muscles tensed up.
Jing Xi immediately retracted her hand and said anxiously,Im sorry, Im sorry. I didnt do it on purpose!
Lou Ziling held her in her arms and said in a low voice,I hope you did it on purpose.
Jing Xis face was already red. The touch was still on her fingertips, and she felt hot!
This was the first time she had touched Lou Zilings desire. His desire was already so obvious, but he was still holding back and not touching her.
Ziling, you
Lou Ziling kissed her smooth hair and replied softly,yes? A sound.
Are you having a hard time holding it in?
Are you feeling sorry for me?
Its nothing. Lou Ziling chuckled.I just lived like this before you were born.
He patted Jing Xis back.Get up and have breakfast. Im going to take a shower.
Lou Ziling got up and went to the bathroom. Jing Xi saw his small tent and buried her face in the quilt shyly.
The sound of running water came from the bathroom. Jing Xi thought of him taking a shower naked and his perfect figure, and she felt a little hot all over.
Lou Ziling came out of the shower and found that Jing Xi was still covered in the quilt. He couldnt help but pull her out of the quilt and carried her into the bathroom.
You, you What are you doing? I dont want to shower!
Jing Xi crossed her arms in front of her chest in an obvious defensive posture.
Lou Ziling ced her on the sink and pinched her face.I didnt want to give you a bath, I just wanted to wash your face. Youre thinking too much!
Jing Xi immediately pushed him out.No, no, no. I can do it myself. Get out! Put on your clothes!
Lou Ziling waspletely helpless. He wasnt wearing a shirt. He was even wearing pants. How could she be shy?
Did he forget that she liked to take off his clothes before?
He didnt know that when Jing Xi saw him naked, she automatically imagined him naked, which was why she felt embarrassed now.
Lou Ziling came out of the bathroom and waited for her for a while. She only saw hering out after she had tidied up.
He sat in his wheelchair, and Jing Xi pushed him from behind. They walked out of the secret room together.
I still like it when youre in a wheelchair!
Why? Lou Ziling didnt like sitting in a wheelchair at all. His legs were basically fine now. He didnt sit in a wheelchair when no one was around.
Because once youre in a wheelchair, youll be the cold and restrained Li Xiao again! With the dark gold mask, I feel like Im in a movie!
So you like Li Xiao and not Lou Ziling!
Jing Xi pushed him into the dining room, then lowered her head and whispered in his ear,I like both! Of course, youre the one I like the most.
Lou Ziling turned his head and kissed Jing Xi, and Jing Xi kissed him back.
The helper who set up breakfast for them was ady who had just arrived not long ago. She was a little surprised to see the young couple so close.
There had always been rumors that the young master and the future young Madam were not on good terms and that the marriage between the two families was only for money.
Now, it seemed that the two of them were as close as one person, not for money at all.
The servant found it hard to understand. The youngdy of family Jing was as beautiful as a fairy that had walked out of a painting. Although Li Xiao was also very handsome, the scar on his face was too scary. She didnt know how the youngdy of family Jing could ovee her psychological barrier and kiss him with a happy face.
The servant set up the meal and quietly left. Lou Ziling personally scooped soup and food for Jing Xi. From time to time, he would stroke her long hair, his love and affection overflowing in his words.
When she went missingst night, his heart had been in a constant state of heartache.
Even now, Lou Ziling was still afraid.
Ive sent Li Jing away,
Jing Xi paused in the middle of drinking her soup.Why? Are you afraid that she will harm me again? Its alright, Im fine! Quickly bring her back, I havent taken my revenge yet!
Ill take revenge for you. Dont see Li Jing again. Shes a lunatic and will do anything.
Jing Xi felt that it was a pity. She didnt think much of what happenedst night, but Lou Ziling was scared out of her wits.
He hugged her tightly the entire night, as if he was afraid that she would disappear. In her sleep, she could feel him kissing her from time to time and tucking her in.
Alright, I wont see her in the future. But dont kill her, just let her live. She cherishes her life very much and has been looking for a chance to turn the tables. She would never be willing tomit suicide. As long as shes not dead, you have a chance to get your assets back.
Jing Xi liked the Li familys Manor more and more. She felt that it was like a paradise, quiet and beautiful. The ancient building was hidden among the dense Pines and cypresses, and there were rockeries and painted beams. If she wore a long dress from ancient times, she would almost be traveling back in time.
If Li Jing were to die, who knew who would take over the manor? they would definitely not be able to live here anymore, which would be a great regret.
Lou Zilings face turned cold at the mention of Li Jing. Dont worry, she wont die. She would be better off dead.
After breakfast, Lou Ziling left with Jing Xi.
He already had many smallpanies that belonged to the Li family and they were all under Li Xiaos name.
Lou Ziling was afraid that Jing Xi would be bored alone in the manor while she was busy outside, so he brought her to thepany.
Thepanies that Lou Ziling had taken over were not well-managed and had low profitability. Some of them were even on the verge of bankruptcy.
Jing Xi liked this kind ofpany very much. It allowed her to transform thepany ording to her own ideas and make thepany flourish.
If it was apany with aplete system, she would be at a loss and would not know where to start.
She had the experience of reviving Luo Feiyangspany. Now, these smallpanies were nothing to her.
She was very happy to be able to work with Lou Ziling.
Half a monthter, the threepanies she was in charge of all started to take off.
Lou Ziling was surprised.Xixi, youve achieved great results. When did you be so good at running apany?
It was during the two years when you werent around. Luo Feiyang and I made hispany bigger and he gave me half of thepany! I have a lot of experience, and I even know how to recruit, manage, and talk to clients!
She was wearing a ck suit and her long hair was draped over her shoulders. She sat in front of the desk and looked like a high-level executive in the workce.
Usually, Lou Ziling felt that she was still a child. However, when she was in thepany and was serious about her work, she did not feel that she was young at all. Instead, she gave off a mature and experienced feeling.
She was only twenty years old!
She was indeed a member of family Jing. Even though she loved to y, she still had an amazing talent for business.
Since Jing Xi was so capable, Lou Ziling decided to let her manage most of thepany.
Chapter 1589
Chapter 1589: The spring is beautiful and suitable to apany you
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi could still manage three smallpanies! But a dozen more at once made her dizzy.
No, Ziling, this is too much! He said.
If you think its too trivial, I think you canbine thesepanies into a bigpany. Is that okay?
Jing Xi felt that it was very difficult. She knocked her head and said,Ill try.
The Li familyspanies were all involved in various industries and had very few simrities, so it was very difficult to integrate them. Li Jing had thought about integrating them before, but she realized that it was impossible, so she simply let the smallpany develop. After all, she only needed to control the top management of eachpany.
Her method of control was to directly control the family members of the manager, killing them at the slightest disagreement, and basically no one dared to resist.
However, this method of control had caused the enthusiasm of the managers to be very low. No one really worked hard for Li Jing to make money, and most of the smallpanies maintained a state of neither losing money nor making profits.
Jing Xi thought about it for many days and finally decided to adopt the development model of Jingsheng enterprise.
She would merge all the smallpanies and set up different departments. Each department would be rtively independent, and the Department Director would have extremely high decision-making power. The director would report to the Vice President, and the Vice President would report to her.
At first, the development was not smooth, but after the new year, everyone slowly adapted to this way of business, and the performance improved by leaps and bounds.
Lou Ziling and Jing Xi also cooperated very well. He was in charge of opening up a newpany and could get a new one almost every week. After he maintained it for a while, he would hand it over to Jing Xi and let her be in charge of consolidating the newpany.
Countless people in W city knew that Li Jing, who had once dominated the city, had fallen from power. Now, the one taking over the Li family was her brother, Li Xiao, who had almost died in her hands.
The people of city W had a more traditional view. They always felt that a son was more suitable than a daughter to inherit the family business because the daughter would be someone elses daughter-inw after she got married. However, a son was different. A son would always be their own. Even if he got married and had children, he would still take his sons surname.
Even if Li Jing married into the family, others would still think that she was inferior to Li Xiao.
Therefore, many people took the initiative to cooperate with Li Xiao and show their loyalty to him.
At the end of spring, Lou Ziling had already taken over half of city W. Not only did he get back the assets of Lous group that Li Jing had taken over, but he also got arge sum of the Li familys assets.
He also asionally showed up with Li Jing. His power was a sharp contrast to Li Jings embarrassment. Li Jings power was rapidly weakening, and some of her loyal subordinates were beginning to waver.
In a newly built apartment in the city center, Li Jing sat on a simple chair and red at Lou Ziling.If you have the ability, kill me! Impersonating my brother and stealing the Li familys property, youll die a terrible death!
Lou Ziling was already used to Li Jings curses. He looked around the apartment and saw that it was well enclosed. The windows were also reinforced and sealed. He nodded to his subordinates.Let miss live here from now on. Send more people to prevent her from escaping ormitting suicide.
Li Jing looked at Lou Zilings indifferent face and was so angry that she wanted to cut Lou Zilings neck.
Unfortunately, her hands and feet were tied up, so she could only sit on the chair and curse.
She would never be willing to give up the Li familys assets!
Unfortunately, Lou Ziling had dodged all three of her assassination attempts.
Her control over her former subordinates was getting weaker and weaker. Many of them had even been bribed by Lou Ziling. However, she still didnt know who had betrayed her and who were still loyal.
Lou Ziling left in her wheelchair, wearing her mask.
Now, he often appeared in the public eye, and his wheelchair and mask had be his symbol.
Many people knew that he wore a mask because of the ugly scar on his face, and that he was in a wheelchair because his leg had been broken by Li Jing, so he could only walk a few steps.
It was the weekend, and it was rare for Lou Ziling and Jing Xi to have a day off. He rushed home and was ready to go hiking with Jing Xi.
In spring, everything was revived, and fresh flowers bloomed. The Li familys Manor was no longer as lifeless as it was in winter, and it was now full of vitality.
Butterflies were flying in the garden of the manor, and bees were busy. Water lilies were blooming in theke. Jing Xi had picked one and put it in a ss bottle. Two small fish were swimming in the clear water at the bottom of the bottle. She was lying on the table and looking at them.
Lou Ziling entered the room, took off her mask, and washed her face. She lifted Jing Xis chin and kissed her red lips.Xixi, go change your clothes. Ill take you out for a spring outing.
Jing Xi jumped to her feet, her eyes shining like stars.Really? Youre not working today?
Its a beautiful spring. Its not suitable for work. Its suitable for apanying you.
Jing Xi cheered and quickly went to change.
There were a lot of people on the spring outing during the weekend. The most famous tourist spot in city W was the beautiful lotus Mountain. At the moment, there were countless tourists on the mountain. Lou Ziling and Jing Xi walked among them, so they were not conspicuous.
Jing Xi had always been well-protected and no one knew her identity. Lou Ziling had also taken off his mask and no one knew him.
The two of them held hands and strolled freely in the mountains.
There were many wildflowers on the mountain. Lou Ziling picked a bunch and made a Gand for Jing Xi.
Jing Xi had been busy for several months, and this was the first time she went out to y with Lou Ziling. She was as happy as a little bird, chirping along the way. She even ignored the eyes of the passers-by and kissed Lou Zilings lips from time to time.
Lou Zilings heart was fluttering as she kissed him. Jing Xi had been taking the initiative recently. A few days ago, he wanted to try it out with Jing Xi, but unfortunately, she was on her period, so he had to give up halfway.
He had already realized that the best way was to not take the initiative and let Jing Xi take the initiative. She would only ept him if she desired more.
There were many tourists on the mountain, and Jing Xis outstanding appearance often attracted all kinds of gazes.
There were also some bold ones who saw Lou Ziling standing next to Jing Xi, but they still teased her.Beauty,e down the mountain with meter! This broken flower crown on your head is worthless, its just to trick an innocent little girl like you. Big brother has money, Ill buy you anything you want!
Jing Xi burst intoughter. She pulled on Lou Zilings sleeve andughed so hard that she could not even speak properly.Hahaha, my dear, he said hes rich! He said that the ring you gave me was worthless!
How dare he show off his wealth in front of Lou Ziling?
If he knew who Lou Ziling was, he probably wouldnt dare to say anything!
Was there anyone in city W who was richer than Lou Ziling?
Lou Ziling put her arm around Jing Xis waist and looked at the hooligan-like man coldly.Get lost!
The hooligan spat out a de of grass from his mouth and shouted,Brothers, theres someone here whos looking for death. Hes trying to snatch my woman!
As soon as he finished his words, seven or eight hooligans with colorful hair rushed out and surrounded Lou Ziling and Jing Xi.
Chapter 1590
Chapter 1590: Falling in love
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Zilings face darkened. Were these gangsters so brazen now?
He had been climbing the mountain with Jing Xi in a good mood to enjoy the scenery, but someone hade to ruin it.
But Jing Xi did not feel that it was ruined at all. It was interesting that someone was here to find trouble! It had been a long time since she had fought. Today, there were so many of them at once. It was time for her to get a kick out of it!
Someone reached out his hand to Jing Xi. Lou Ziling grabbed the mans wrist and twisted it. Crack! The mans wrist was broken.
The red-haired gangster screamed and fell to the ground. Jing Xi felt helpless. Hisbat power was too weak.
You guys dont even go and practice boxing or Taekwondo, and you dare to go out and flirt with girls?
Jing Xi pushed Lou Ziling away and stretched her arms and legs. She said excitedly,Step back. Leave these people to me. Its been too long since Ive hit anyone, so my movements are rusty!
Without waiting for Lou Ziling to speak, Jing Xi started fighting with the rest of the hooligans.
She was unarmed, and the seven people on the other side were all holding short knives, but they were quickly defeated.
The onlookers looked at Jing Xi in shock, and some were even cheering for her. Obviously, they felt that it was very exciting for a weak girl to fight back when she was bullied.
Youre too weak! Jing Xi was not satisfied.Didnt you guys eat?
The hooligans got up from the ground and left with swollen faces.
The crowd slowly dispersed. Lou Ziling took out a wet tissue and wiped Jing Xis hands. Youre so good at fighting that I have nothing to do. I wanted to be the hero and save the beauty once, but you didnt even give me a chance.
Jing Xi stood on her tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek. She smiled and said,Aiya, I was just too excited to see a fight! Youve already saved me once, and you were very brave. Ill remember that for the rest of my life.
Lou Ziling smiled but did not say anything.
That was good. It would not be toote for him to make a move when there was danger. If there was nothing dangerous, he would let Jing Xi y by herself, so that she would not be bored.
Lou Ziling took Jing Xi to a small restaurant on the mountain for a delicious feast of wild mushrooms. When they came out of the restaurant, Jing Xi saw spring water flowing out of a crack in the stone. She immediately drank it from a mineral water bottle.
Lets eat and drink to our hearts content. Ziling, lets find afortable patch of grass and take an afternoon nap.
If youre tired and sleepy, well go home. Its easy to catch a cold if you sleep here.
Jing Xi was not happy. She hugged Lou Zilings arm and said,The weather is good, and the temperature is suitable. Its not easy for me toe out and y, I dont want to go home to sleep!
Lou Zilings heart softened.Alright, lets find a ce with plenty of sunlight. If you like toe out and y in the future, I can bring you out at any time. I was too busy before.
With their fingers intertwined, they walked around the mountain and finally found a sparsely popted grasnd.
Jing Xi was lyingfortably on Lou Zilingsp. She closed her eyes and enjoyed the warm sun and the soft spring breeze. She smelled the faint scent of grass and flowers in the air. She was in a good mood.
Lou Ziling twirled Jing Xis long hair between her fingers. She was in a good mood.
He rarely enjoyed life as he did now. Most of the time, he was alone, moving forward in the dark.
He wanted to thank Jing Xi for not giving up on him. She left A city and came here to apany him, live with him, and show him the beautiful spring.
Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xis white face, which was glowing under the sun. He couldnt help but lower his head and kiss her gently.
The mountains were filled with birds and flowers, which was very suitable for dating.
Lou Ziling and Jing Xiy side by side. With his arm as her pillow, Jing Xi fell asleep very quickly.
Lou Ziling couldnt help but chuckle at her carefree sleep.
In fact, Jing Xi had been through a lot. She had been through a lot of physical training and fighting training. Jing Yichen had even left her on an isted ind to survive.
However, she never seemed to find it hard and treated all the training as fun.
Now that she was lying on the grass, she had fallen asleep so easily. She was really big-hearted.
When they had children in the future, the three of them coulde out and climb mountains together. He wondered if Jing Xi could take care of the child with her personality. She couldnt even take care of herself.
If the child was as mischievous and mischievous as she was, he would be very busy.
Jing Xi slept for nearly an hour before she woke up. She leanedzily in Lou Zilings arms and looked at him with anticipation. Letse again next weekend, okay?
Even if you want to live here, Ill agree. At most, Ill buy a piece ofnd on this mountain and build you a small wooden house with a courtyard. You can raise a deer.
That sounds pretty good!
But why not raise a deer instead of a puppy? Jing Xi smiled brightly.
Because I dont like dogs, Lou Ziling replied indifferently.
Why dont you like dogs? Its cute and loyal, and its one of the most intelligent species!
Lou Ziling touched Jing Xis face and said after a long silence,When I was young, I went to my uncles house to y once. He and my brother locked me in an iron cage with the dog and even tied me up with a dog chain to prevent me from escaping.
The smile on Jing Xis face disappeared without a trace. Her face was full of shock and anger!
Lou Ziling had such a terrifying childhood!
Lou mingzhen and Lou Zirong were inhumane!
Her heart ached as she hugged Lou Ziling. She scolded her angrily,Its really not a good thing! How dare they bully you? where are the other two? Im going to lock them both up in cages and let them eat with dogs every day!
Theyre both in Li Jings hands. I wonder if shell use them to threaten me.
Threatening? No matter what Li Jing uses them for, you dont have to worry about it. Theyre so bad that they deserve their retribution! When I was eight years old, Lou mingzhen even found someone to kidnap me. If it wasnt for you, I might have suffered a lot.
Lou mingzhen was the first person who dared to kidnap her even though he knew her identity!
She probably knew that using Lou mingzhen would not be able to threaten me. I was the one who went to her and gave Lou mingzhen some punishment.
Lou Ziling didnt have any feelings for Lou mingzhens family. His childhood memories had cast a serious shadow on him for a long time. Even if Li Jing wanted Lou mingzhens life, he didnt care.
But when Jing Xi talked about the time when she was eight years old, Lou Ziling felt a little amazed.
At that time, he was fifteen years old. He had never thought that one day, he would marry the little girl he had identally saved.
Fortunately, he had saved her back then. Otherwise, he would definitely regret it to death now.
This was the first time he saved someone in his life, and he had saved his fiance. He was really lucky!
Lou Ziling squatted down and carried Jing Xi on her back.Wife, shall we go down the mountain?
Jing Xi giggled on his back. She liked hearing Lou Ziling call her wife.
Alright, lets go down the mountain!
Chapter 1591
Chapter 1591: Blood kin
Trantor: 549690339
As Lou Ziling suddenly thought of Lou mingzhens family, she deliberately searched for their whereabouts in the next few days.
After looking for him, he suddenly realized that Lou mingzhen was actually in city W! And it had been almost two years!
Li Jing had already buried him as a chess piece!
Lou Zhen changed his name and lived in an old industrial area in city W. He gathered arge group of hooligans and became the leader of the hooligans. Lou Zirong also became a hooligan. He fought, robbed, and hurt people every day. He no longer looked like the young master of the Lou family.
Lou Ziling stood in the messy alley, her eyes cold.
So it wasnt a coincidence that they met those hooligans on the mountain a few days ago!
He had been wondering why the hooligans these days were so bold and dared to flirt with girls with boyfriends.
He was wearing a brand new pair of handmade leather shoes. He stepped on the dirt road and slowly approached Lou Zirong.
Lou Zirong, your methods are getting more and more underhanded.
Lou Zirong looked at his colorful clothes and then at Lou Ziling, who was in a suit. He was instantly jealous.
You dont even care about your family name in order to Rob others of their property. Lou Ziling, does your father know that your family name is li now?
Lou Ziling was expressionless. It seemed that Li Jing had told Lou Zirong everything about him. He would deal with Li Jing after he was done here.
My surname is Lou, who said my surname is li? Youve been hiding here for so long and raised so many hoodlums. I shouldve found you earlier!
Lou Ziling was surrounded by arge group of gangsters with sticks. They looked at him fiercely as if they would beat him down if they didnt agree.
Lou Ziling didnt even frown in the face of hundreds of people.
However, Lou Zirong knew his weakness like the back of his hand. He suddenly released more than a dozen vicious dogs and they pounced on Lou Ziling like crazy.
Dogs were Lou Zilings nightmare.
When he had told Jing Xi about it, he had described it very casually, but what he had experienced in the past had terrified him.
Lou Zilings face turned pale when she saw so many dogs.
A dog pounced at him, and his body was so stiff that he couldnt fight back.
Fortunately, he did note alone.
There were countless assassins hidden in the dpidated buildings around him to protect his safety.
The shrill sound of the gunshot pierced the sky. The dog that was pouncing on Lou Ziling screamed and fell to the ground. It was dead.
Every vicious dog that pounced on him had the same ending.
In the end, the remaining vicious dogs knew fear after seeing so many of theirpanions die. They didnt want to listen to Lou Zirongsmand at all, and ran away madly.
Lou Ziling stepped over the corpses of the dogs and walked towards Lou Zirong, who had been scared silly.
Do you think that Im still the child you bullied in the past?
Lou Ziling grabbed Lou Zirongs clothes and threw him to the ground.
You think you can defeat me by following Li Jing?
Lou Zilings shoes stepped on Lou Zirongs chest, stomping on him, not letting him get up.
When Lou mingzhen heard the gunshot and the dogs scream, he ran out of his house in a panic without even putting on his shoes.
When he saw his son being stepped on by Lou Ziling, he raised his gun and shot at Lou Zilings leg.
The moment he opened fire, he was shot in the leg.
The bullet missed Lou Zilings leg and hit Lou Zirong who was lying on the ground.
Lou Zirong screamed in pain and almost fainted.
Lou Ziling replied indifferently,The person who shot you is your father. If you want to scold, find the right person. I havent fired yet, so its not toote to scold me after I break your legs.
Lou Ziling took out a pistol and was about to shoot when she heard a familiar roar.Lou Ziling, stop!
Lou Ziling was slightly shocked. She quickly looked up and saw her father, Lou Mingyang, alsoing out of Lou mingzhens house. He was staring at her angrily.
Dad, when did you return to the country? Remember to tell me next time, I can pick you up at the airport.
Lou Ziling was only stunned for a moment. Soon, he regained his calmness. His gun was still pointed at Lou Zirong. He didnt show any mercy to his father.
Ziling, put the gun down!
Lou Mingyang looked at his brother and nephew lying on the ground, bleeding and wailing in pain. He was suddenly covered in sweat.
Although he didnt like the father and son, they were blood-rted, so how could he shoot them?
If his deceased parents knew about this in theherworld, they would definitely not acknowledge him as their son! He would not acknowledge Lou Ziling as his grandson!
Dad, if you let them off today, tomorrow will be the day of my death. Have you forgotten when they were ruthless to you?
If I were as ruthless as them, I would be as brutal as the two of them! Put down your guns and let them go! Your uncles age is already old, he wont be able to live for many more years, youre not allowed to kill him!
Lou Ziling slowly retracted her spear. She did not take the father and sons lives by force.
Most of the time, he still listened to Lou Mingyang.
Lou Mingyang was a true gentleman. He would never use insidious means and would not let his hands be stained with blood. He had always had a sense of righteousness in his bones.
This was the main reason why Jing Yichen trusted him.
Lou mingzhen and his son were quickly taken away by their men for treatment. The punks in the alley all ran away. In the quiet night, only Lou Ziling and Lou Mingyang were left.
Lou Mingyang had not seen his son for a long time.
He said that he didnt want to acknowledge Lou Ziling anymore. Lou Ziling really had a backbone and didnt want to go home!
Because of this, Lou Mingyang had been med by his wife countless times.
After three years, Lou Ziling had be more mature and cold. He was so cruel that he wanted to kill his cousin and uncle!
Lou Mingyangs hands were shaking, not sure if it was from anger or fear.
Dad, go back to United States. Donte back. Its not safe here. My opponent is not an ordinary person. Youll probably die if youe back.
You really dont want to acknowledge me as your father anymore and change your surname to li?
Lou Mingyangs tone was not good and his face was ugly.
He had been in city W for three days, and Lou mingzhen had told him everything about Lou Ziling. He was quite angry about his son changing his name and stealing other peoples property.
Theres no such thing, dad. My surname is Lou. Im me, and Li Xiao is Li Xiao. Theyre not the same person. Dont be misled by that father and son.
Lou Mingyang suddenly felt that his son was a little scary. He had two identities and could switch between them easily. Even in front of his biological father, he didnt reveal anything. His acting was better than anything else!
A ck Jaguar stopped in front of Lou Mingyang. Lou Ziling said calmly,Dad, get in the car. Ill take you to the airport.
Chapter 1592
Chapter 1592: Whats the childs surname?
Trantor: 549690339
Why would I go to the airport? I wont go! If I leave, are you going to continue killing?
No, its not worth it to go to jail for killing someone. I wont do such a thing. I didnt want to Kill Uncle and brother, I just wanted to scare them. They even hired people to bully Jing Xi a few days ago. I just wanted to stand up for Jing Xi.
Jing Xi?
Hearing Jing Xis name, Lou Mingyangs expression finally eased.
Did your uncle find someone to bully her? He didnt know his own limits and dared to touch the pearl of family Jing. Has he gone senile?
He scolded his own brother and asked hesitantly,Youre engaged to Jing Xi? Why didnt you tell your mom and me? she went to the United States and visited us. She said she wanted to marry you, and your mom gave her our familys heirloom jade bangle. But this gift is too light. Your mother and I should give her more expensive gifts for your engagement.
Even Lou Ziling was jealous of Jing Xis treatment. His father didnt even recognize him as his son. He had been so aggressive just now, but now he had be a loving elder who loved Jing Xi!
Shes not engaged to me, shes engaged to Li Xiao.
Lou Mingyang couldnt help but re at his son.Isnt it the same? I dont care. Jing Xi is my daughter-inw. Youre not allowed to bully her in the future! She lived like a princess when she was in family Jing, and she must be a Princess in our family! If shes not doing well, I wont have the face to see her parents!
Shes doing well. Shes still a Princess.
Lou Zilings face softened. Why would he bully Jing Xi? She was the one who bullied him. Each of her ideas was more deadly than the other.
This is good! When you have time, bring her home, well take good care of her. Youve been gone for two years, and the little girl has been looking for you everywhere. With your cold and arrogant temper, which girl would like you so much?
Lou Mingyang despised his son for being insensible, but he seemed to have forgotten that he was the one who wanted to cut off their father-son rtionship and didnt even pick up his phone.
That was why Lou Ziling disappeared from their world.
Lou Ziling listened to her fathers scolding and didnt say anything.
He wouldnt take Jing Xi home for the time being, because it would easily expose his identity. He had to at least wait until he had full control of the Li family before he could take Jing Xi home.
Anyway, it didnt make a difference whether she went back or not. Her parents were living well in the United States and Lou ruofei was taking care of them. Lou Ziling had nothing to worry about.
Dad, get in the car. We should go!
Lou Ziling was determined to send Lou Mingyang away. Lou Mingyang was angry but helpless. He could only get in the car.
Lou Ziling also got into the car. The driver quickly started the engine and drove to the airport.
Youre in such a hurry to chase me away?
Yes! Lou Ziling nodded.
Lou Mingyangs temples were throbbing because of his sons anger. He never knew what was tactful when he spoke!
I still want to see Jing Xi. Cant you just let me stay in W city for a few days?
Well see each other in the future. Like I said, its not safe here. If you stay here, my enemies will notice you.
Lou Mingyang was silent for a while before he said,Our Lou familyspany has closed down, but its best if you can live a stable life. Dont work too hard. Dont snatch things that dont belong to you. Jing Xi She doesnt care about our familys money. She just likes you as a person. You should live a good life with her and dont cause a bloody mess every day.
If it doesnt belong to you, dont snatch it.
Yes, Lou Ziling used to think so too.
Although he used to be cold, his hands had never been stained with blood. He followed his fathers teachings and would not harm anyone.
However, after training for a long time, he learned that if he wanted to stand at the top of the pyramid, it was impossible to do so without fighting for it!
They had to fight, snatch, and even harvest lives when necessary.
Otherwise, he would be the one to die.
Women were the same. If you like someone, you shouldnt give in!
If he could start over, he would not give up on Jing Xi. He would not give her up!
Three years ago, he lost everything overnight. Thepany that he had worked so hard to manage went bankrupt, his girlfriend was gone, and even his father wanted to sever their father-son rtionship.
No one knew how he had managed to survive!
No one knew that during that period of time, all of his beliefs had copsed!
In order to deal with Li Jing, he had sold his house, his car, and even the restaurants, teahouses, andnd under his name. He had used the money to hire countless assassins to cut off Li Jings wings!
Back then, he had gone all out in a desperate struggle in exchange for todays seemingly glorious achievements!
He was no longer the Lou Ziling who followed the rules!
He was the Li Xiao who was willing to use any underhanded means!
Ziling, when do you n to get married?
Lou Mingyangs words pulled Lou Ziling back from her memories. He said,At the end of the year.
When do you n to have a child? Also, after you give birth, the child must be surnamed Lou, not li.
No, the child will be surnamed li!
You! Lou Mingyang pointed at Lou Ziling angrily.Are you trying to carry on the Li familys bloodline? Li Jing was the only one left in the Li family, and you suddenly appeared to continue the Li family bloodline?
Lou Ziling didnt care at all.I made his surname Li so that he can control the Li familys huge assets more easily in the future. You just need to know that he is your grandson and the blood of the Lou family flows in his body.
No, no, no! My grandsons surname is li. It sounds weird! I have the final say in this matter. I definitely cant take another persons surname, what kind of behavior is that!
Lou Mingyang muttered in a low voice. From time to time, he wrote and drew on his palm, giving his grandson a name.
Lou Ziling was very calm. He had already thought about it. When Jing Xi gave birth to a child, the child would have two different identities. One would be the future heir of the Li family, and the other would be an ordinary child of the Lou family.
As long as he was properly protected, he could freely switch between his two identities.
Lou Ziling wanted tough as he listened to Lou Mingyangs naming of the child. The father and son seemed to be worrying too much. He didnt know how long it would take for them to have a child!
After sending Lou Mingyang off, Lou Ziling returned to the manor.
Jing Xi was still awake. She was lying on the sofa in her pajamas and reading some documents.
When she saw Lou Ziling enter the house, she threw away her documents. Without even wearing her shoes, she ran over and hugged his neck.
Why did youe back sote? I almost fell asleep!
Lou Ziling hugged Jing Xi and lowered her head to kiss her.Silly girl, dont wait for me in the future. Go to sleep if youre tired. Also, wear your shoes. The floor is very cold.

He carried Jing Xi into the bedroom, turned off the lights, and said softly,Lets sleep.
Snuggling in his arms, Jing Xi closed her eyes and found afortable position, and soon fell asleep.
Lou Ziling could not help but smile wryly. She had slept so soundly that she did not give him any chance.
It had been like this almost every day. He came back from work veryte, and Jing Xi had been waiting for him for a long time. As soon as he came back, she immediately fell asleep in his arms.
Lou Ziling didnt want to wake her up, so she just let her sleep. He only had some benefits when he woke up in the morning.
Jing Xi seemed to like this state very much and did not want to go any further.
Lou Ziling had been holding it in for too long. Sometimes, she couldnt control herself and always wanted to eat her up.
Jing Xi slept for a while and felt a chill in her chest. She opened her eyes in a daze and saw Lou Ziling kissing her gently.
Jing Xi suddenly lost all her sleepiness!
Scoundrel! He actually bullied her while she was asleep!
She nervously and shyly pushed Lou Ziling away and said in a low voice,Who allowed you to take off my clothes? Dont tell me you do bad things every night while Im asleep?
Lou Ziling turned over and pressed Jing Xi under him. He chuckled.No, today was the first time. I was already very gentle, but its a pity that I still woke you up.
The two of them were pressed against each other, and Jing Xi could feel the heat of his body and the amazing excitement of a certain part of him.
In fact, she had been peeking at Lou Ziling for the past few months. She was embarrassed to stare at Lou Ziling directly, so she always took a nce when Lou Ziling wasnt paying attention.
Slowly, she became more and more curious about what that part of his body looked like. Every time she saw only his majestic *** and not his real face, Jing Xi wanted to lift up Lou Zilings clothes to take a look!
Lou Ziling didnt know what Jing Xi was thinking. He was worried that he would scare Jing Xi, so he would wear loose pants to sleep and try to hide His Majesty.
He pulled up Jing Xis clothes, covered her with a thin nket, andy down beside her again.Go to sleep, I wont disturb you anymore.
However, Jing Xi was not sleepy at all. She was in Lou Zilings arms, blinking her eyes and unable to sleep.
Lou Zilings breathing gradually stabilized and she fell asleep.
Ziling
Jing Xi tried to call Lou Zilings name, but he didnt respond. She finally believed that he had fallen asleep.
He was taking advantage of her sleeping, so she could also do something bad while he was sleeping!
She had been thinking about a certain part of Lou Zilings body for a long time. Although she was too embarrassed to look up, she reached out and touched it gently out of curiosity.
Lou Ziling suddenly froze. She didnt dare to move at all, as if all the pressure points in her body had been pressed.
Jing Xi had touched him once before, but that time was an ident. This time, it was obvious that she was consciously touching him.
Jing Xi raised her head and looked at Lou Ziling. She was relieved to see that his eyes were still closed and his breathing was steady.
Lou Ziling almost went crazy!
Was this girl trying to take his life?
He could no longer maintain a steady breathing!
Jing Xi suddenly noticed that Lou Ziling was awake. She was so scared that she immediately let go of Lou Ziling and closed her eyes, pretending to be asleep.
But it was toote. Lou Ziling pressed her down and kissed her face and lips like raindrops.
Lou Ziling, I didnt mean it, Jing Xi exined in a panic.Please dont misunderstand!
I think you did it on purpose. Ive misunderstood. If you like it, feel free to touch it. Its free.
Jing Xi was too embarrassed to raise her head, so she bit Lou Zilings shoulder and said,You liar, youre pretending to be asleep!
It hurt a little, but it made Lou Ziling more aroused. He took off Jing Xis clothes without hesitation and said in a low voice,Luckily I pretended to be asleep. Otherwise, I wouldnt have known that you wanted me so much
Jing Xi had never undressed so thoroughly in front of Lou Ziling. She wanted to curl her legs up shyly, but Lou Ziling separated her legs, pressed her down, and kissed her.
Since they had been together for a long time, Lou Ziling was not as anxious as when he first saw Jing Xis body.
His movements were gentle as he explored every corner of Jing Xis body.
Xixi, rx. Itll hurt if youre too nervous
Jing Xi could no longer hear what he was saying. She had fallen into his gentleness, and her desire for him had never been stronger.
In fact, she had been ready to give herself to Lou Ziling for a long time. Last month, if she didnt have her period when they kissed intimately, she might have be his woman.
She kissed Lou Zilings chin and mumbled his name.
But fortunately, she could still ept this kind of pain. She had watched those women in those horror movies screaming their hearts out. She had thought that it would be painful to death, but it was not.
This pain was much less than the one she had to endure during herbat training!
Xixi, does it hurt? Dont be afraid, itll be fine in a while
Lou Zilings voice rang in Jing Xis ears. He was still kissing her affectionately, treating her like a delicate flower and taking care of her.
Lou Ziling was overjoyed. He hugged Jing Xi tightly and showed her his love and affection tirelessly until Jing Xis body went soft and begged for mercy.
The next morning, Jing Xi got upte.
She opened her eyes, and as soon as she moved, she felt as if her body had fallen apart, and she had no strength.
A certain part of her body ached, and she bit the man beside her angrily. She pouted and said,Youre so bad!
Lou Ziling put her arm to her mouth and said in a gentle tone,If youre angry, then bite me. I was a little badst night, but I wont do it again tonight, okay?
Jing Xi was reluctant to bite him. She felt that she and Lou Ziling had be more intimate. She couldnt describe the feeling of being one with each other. She only felt that from now on, Lou Ziling was really hers, and she was Lou Ziling s!
Shey in his arms and deliberately blew hot air into his ear,ining in a low voice,Look at the time now. I cant go to work in the morning. I still have an important meeting today!
Lou Zilings heart was tickled by her hot breath, but she restrained herself from touching her. She chuckled and said,Youre the young Madam of the Li family now. No one cares about you even if you y all day. I didnt ask you to manage thosepanies for hardbor. I just wanted you to relieve your boredom.

Jing Xi found that Lou Ziling was getting better at sweet-talking!
She touched Lou Zilings handsome face and felt that the title of youngdy of the Li family was not bad. It sounded like he had a high status!
They dawdled for a while before they got up. Lou Ziling followed Jing Xi closely. He hugged her from behind, kissed her face, and touched her hair. Even Jing Xi herself felt so sweet!
The two brushed their teeth and washed their faces together. Jing Xi applied some moisturizer. Seeing that Lou Ziling didnt need anything after washing his face, she couldnt help but apply some for him.
Apply a little and moisten it. Youll be more handsome!
Her delicate fingers gently brushed across Lou Zilings face. Lou Ziling couldnt help but grab her hand and kiss it. Xixi, Im very satisfied to have you. I dont mind not having anything.
I know, Jing Xi said, smiling.I heard from Li Jing that you were unwilling to work with her to deal with the Jing family. Thats why she used underhanded means to destroy thepany.
Lou Ziling was stunned. Jing Xi knew!
He picked Jing Xi up in his arms and said in a clear voice,Shes really brainless. She asked me to deal with my inws, of course Id rather die than submit! Young Madam, is there any reward for my good performance tonight?
Jing Xis eyes curved into crescents as sheughed. Since when did Lou Ziling start to joke so casually?
In the past, he didnt say a word for a long time. When the two of them were together, she was the one who spoke.
However, in fact, from a long time ago, he already had the posture of doting on her. He had revealed his indulgence for her in some minor details.
You used up all the rewardsst night, so theres no more for tonight! I wont sleep with you tonight. Ill sleep in my own building and youll sleep in your secret room!
How can that be? Ill sleep wherever you sleep. How can we sleep separately? Lou Ziling didnt agree. He had just eaten her. Why couldnt he eat her today? he was even deprived of the right to sleep with her.
He carried Jing Xi to the dining room for dinner, and Jing Xi felt that he was treating her like a child.
Although she had used up a lot of energyst night and her whole body was soft, she could still walk!
He insisted on holding her, and Jing Xi did not refuse.
He had always treated her like a child, right?
Did he still have an impression of her when she was a teenager?
When she was young, she didnt like people treating her like a child. But when she really grew up, she felt that being pampered and indulged like a child was a rare and happy thing.
After dinner, Lou Ziling and Jing Xi went to work, but Lou Ziling didnt agree.Be good and wait for me at home. Youre not allowed to go anywhere today. Just rest at home.
He lowered his head and sucked on Jing Xis lips until they were red.
Jing Xi put her arms around his waist and said in a low voice,Im fine. Im not that delicate. Im fine now. I have to go to work.
Im giving you a day off and youre still not happy?
Lou Ziling smiled and pinched the tip of her nose.What a hard-working little bee! But little Bumblebee, youre not allowed to go out and be busy today. Ill be back to apany you soon after I deal with a few more urgent matters.
Jing Xi finally nodded.Okay, I can go and catch up on sleep now. The little bee cant fly today. Its all your fault!
Yes, its my fault.
Lou Ziling kissed her forehead. She felt guilty.
She was too delicate. The stormst night had left many marks on her body.
It was her first time, so the blood stain was very obvious. Lou Zilings heart ached and she panicked when she saw a small patch on the bed sheet.
How could it not hurt?
His heart still ached for her, so he was determined not to let her go to work.
Why had he been working so hard to take over Li Jings power?
Wasnt it all for Jing Xi to live a carefree life?
Lou Ziling went to work, and Jing Xi went back to her bedroom to catch up on sleep. When she woke up, he was lying next to her!
Jing Xi blinked, suspecting that she was dreaming.
Why did youe back so quickly?
Lou Zilingughed.Youve been sleeping for three hours. I finished my work and came back to keep youpany. But you were sleeping like a little pig. You didnt even hear me when I called you.
Jing Xi refused to admit that she was a little pig.Thats impossible. Im very alert when Im sleeping. You must have been too quiet!
Lou Zilingughed.Sure. Next time, Ill use the megaphone to shout. This way, your alertness will be reflected.
After a good nights sleep, Jing Xi was full of energy and was back to her lively self.
Shey on Lou Zilings back and smiled.You carry me to see the sunset!
Lou Ziling carried her and walked out of the courtyard. They went to the highest building in the Li familys Manor.
Although it was called a small building, it was actually somewhat simr to a Lighthouse. It was all made of wood and was more than ten stories high.
Jing Xi had nevere up before, so she was carried up by Lou Ziling. She looked at the magnificent scene around her in shock and her heart was stirred.Ziling, I can see the entire Manor from here. I feel like Im an Emperor from ancient times!
At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, everything was restored. The Li familys Manor was covered inyers of emerald green, with the asional bright flowers decorating it. It was beautiful.
Lou Ziling put Jing Xi down from his back and hugged her from behind. He said gently,The scenery of this Manor is rare. The person who built this Lighthouse must have a strong desire to control it. I guess people oftene up to look down at this Manor, and then have the desire to control the whole world.
Lou Ziling didnt have such great ambitions, but standing here, she couldnt help but want to own the whole world.
This Manor had a long history. Perhaps someone from the Li familys ancestors had once wanted to be the Emperor?
No wonder Li Jing and her father were both ambitious people. It was probably inherited in the family.
The lighthouse had been in disrepair for a long time, and the original paint had long fallen off, revealing the mahogany inside, which looked a little old and simple.
However, Jing Xi liked the antique style. Most of the Li familys buildings were antique. Compared to the modern city and the high-rise buildings with reinforced concrete, this ce was like a paradise, far away from the troubles of the world.
Fortunately, this was Li Jing s. If it were someone else, Jing Xi would feel embarrassed to steal such a good ancestral home.
However, Li Jing was a sinister person, so Jing Xi had no concerns at all.
She still had a lot of good stuff in her hands that Lou Ziling had not dug out!
Jing Xi patted Lou Zilings hand in excitement.Ziling, take me to see Li Jing tomorrow. Shes a huge treasure vault, and Im the key to it!

Trantor: 549690339
The next evening, Lou Ziling couldnt stand Jing Xis constant pestering. He drove her to the apartment where Li Jing was being held.
When Jing Xi saw Li Jing, she was a little surprised. Li Jing was really not an ordinary person. She had been locked up by Lou Ziling for so long, but she could still keep herposure and not break down.
Jing Xi knew that she was not as strong as her in terms of mental strength and ability to withstand pain. If she had been locked up for so long, she would have gone crazy!
Were all the top assassins trained by an assassin organization so powerful?
Wouldnt Jing Rui and Jing Zhi be even more powerful?
Jing Xi wasnt sure how much Jing Zhi could take it. He could get angry sometimes, but Jing Rui didn t. Jing Xi thought that her brother must be more resilient than Li Jing.
She shook her head in frustration. It seemed that she was the weakest in family Jing.
This was really sad!
Why did the bandit couplee together? Lou Ziling, I remember that the girl you brought herest time wasnt Jing Xi. Did you get tired of her?
Lou Ziling frowned and said to Jing Xi,Xixi, I didn t! Dont listen to her!
Jing Xi smiled and did not take it to heart.
She didnt believe that Lou Ziling would like another woman.
He had given her everything he had. Other than work, he was with her every second of the day. She knew his phone password, his bank ount, and The Secret Forces he had.
She might doubt others, but she would never doubt Lou Ziling. His love for her was engraved in his bones and engraved in his heart. He had no extra feelings for other women.
Aiya, third sister Li, I havent seen you for a few days. Your lying skills have deteriorated! Ill give you an electric shockter, and you might be able to return to the factory settings! After seeing a beautiful woman like me, how can any other ordinary woman enter my Zilings eyes?
Im telling the truth. Its fine if you dont believe me,Li Jing said with a cold smile. He can take over the Li family now, and when he grows stronger in the future, your Jing family will be his next target. Do you think he married you because he loves you? Hahaha, thats not the case at all! He is after the huge property of family Jing!
If it had been someone who was not determined, or if there had been a crack in the rtionship between Jing Xi and Lou Ziling, Li Jings attempt to drive a wedge between them would have seeded.
Unfortunately, Jing Xi was not only determined, but she had also been in love with Lou Ziling for a long time. Li Jings attempt to drive a wedge between them had no effect on her.
If Lou Ziling really wanted the property of family Jing, he wouldnt have refused to ept her and even disappeared from her world.
Li Jing had ndered Lou Ziling, and Jing Xi was very angry, so she doubled the torture on her.
She had originally wanted to get a few bugs to disgust Li Jing, but now she threw Li Jing into a pile of bugs.
There were a lot of caterpirs in spring, and they had even collected the caterpirs from the Li familys Manor. Li Jing was so disgusted that she almost vomited!
Dont eat anymore in the future. These bugs have a high protein content. You should just eat them to fill your stomach!
Jing Xi wasnt afraid of bugs, but Li Jing was disgusted to death. Even Lou Ziling felt his scalp go numb when he saw the densely packed bugs.
A white and chubby bug ran faster than the other bugs and burrowed into Li Jings nose without a care. The big bug quickly burrowed in and disappeared!
Li Jing found it difficult to breathe.
She recognized this kind of bug!
These bugs came from the Li familys Manor. Every spring, many of these bugs woulde out of the trees in the manor, drilling holes in the strong trees.
After a while, Li Jings nose started bleeding.
Blood was dripping down, but she couldnt feel any pain!
Why didnt she just kill Jing Xist time?
She had overestimated the ruffians she had bribed. They could do nothing but ruin things! You cant even control a girl!
He had thought that Jing Xi would be tortured to death after falling into the hands of those people, but who knew that she would return to the manor in one piece!
Li Jing screamed and cursed, constantly hitting the bugs on her body. However, there were always bugs that took the opportunity to burrow into her ears.
In an instant, one of her ears actually went deaf!
Her curses came to an abrupt end and were immediately reced by a plea.Jing Xi, I was wrong. Ill give you whatever you want! Quickly get these disgusting things out of my way!
Jing Xi sighed.Im sorry. I cant do anything about it. Its easy to catch the bugs, but they wont listen to mymand.
She had been afraid that Li Jing wouldnt be afraid of the insects, but it seemed that they would disgust her for a few days.
A few dayster, Lou Ziling got arge department store and an overseas real estate.
Jing Xi was lying on the sofa eating grapes. She couldnt help but sigh.No wonder Li Jing loved to Rob others, even yourpany. It turns out that robbing is easy to get addicted to!
Lou Ziling peeled a grape and fed it to Jing Xi.Its easy for Li Jing to take other peoples things, but not hers. If it werent for you, I wouldnt have been able to get much.
He had thought that Li Jing, who wasnt even afraid of bullets or sharp des, wouldnt be afraid of bugs.
It turned out that she had so many weaknesses, but he had never found the right one.
A few days ago, I found Lou mingzhens family in an old industrial zone in city W. It must be Li Jings doing. She must have arranged many obstacles for me.
Eh? Youve found them? Quickly hand them over to me, I promise Ill make their entire family submit to me!
Lou Zilingughed. She was really capable.
No need, Ive already chased them out of here. Theres nothing to worry about that family. But Lou mingzhen is really ruthless, he even called my dad over.
Your father is here? Jing Xi sat up abruptly. Where was he? Why didnt you tell me!
Lou Ziling felt likeughing when she saw her nervous face.Ive sent him away. He must be in the United States now.
Sent away?
Why didnt you ask him to stay at the manor for a few days? Jing Xi asked.
He insisted on leaving. I invited him over, but he disdained that my surname is now li and not Lou. He was so angry that he refused toe.
Lou Ziling made up an excuse and directed the question to Lou Mingyang, as if he was not the one who had to send Lou Mingyang away that day.
His and Jing Xis time together was so sweet. If Lou Mingyang came to live here, Jing Xi would definitely not be so intimate with him. She would probably spend most of her time with Lou Mingyang, her future father-inw!
Aiya, thats not good. Lets go to the United States together and have a good talk with your father! You didnt even tell the two elders about our engagement, and the child you have in the future wont have the surname Lou. It would be strange if Uncle Lou was happy!
Why isnt your surname Lou? Li in the day and Lou in the night. Isnt it good to have two identities?
Jing? Jing Xis eyes lit up.The child can also have the surname Jing!
Chapter 1596
Chapter 1596: A chance encounter
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling smiled.Sure. As long As You Like It.
Lou Ziling really didnt care what the childs surname was. As long as it was his and Jing Xis child, it was fine. The surname Jing was not bad either. Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning would probably be very happy.
Jing Xi smiled and stretched out two fingers.Lets have two children. The son will take your surname and the daughter will take my surname. How about it?
Lou Ziling hugged her tightly, her fingers sliding across her delicate skin. She whispered,Then we have to hurry up. Theres not even one now! This isnt something you can just say!
No, no, no. I cant have children now. Ill have another one in two years. I dont think Im all grown up yet!
Lou Ziling kissed her delicate and sexy corbones and said softly,I also think that youre still young. Giving birth is a tough thing. Lets talk about it in two years. If youre pregnant, I cant touch you anymore. Isnt that killing me?
He wished he could eat Jing Xi every day. If he wasnt afraid that she wouldnt be able to stand it, he would definitely not know how to control himself at night.
He doted on Jing Xi like a baby, and he couldnt bear to see her suffer.
The pain of giving birth shouldeter.
She was only twenty-one, so there was no hurry.
With a child, there would be ties. Now that there was no child, there were only the two of them. If she wanted to go out and y, he could let go of everything and bring her out to y. If she wanted to sleep, she could go to sleep anytime.
If she had a child, how could she be so free?
Even with the confinement nannys help, it wouldnt work.
Lou Ziling thought about many things in an instant. The more she thought about it, the more she didnt want a child.
It was enough for him to take care of Jing Xi!
Why dont we stop having children? I think itll be good if we just live together.
Jing Xis eyes widened as she looked at him and burst intoughter. Youre the only son in your family. If we dont have a child, will your parents agree?
Even if Lou Zilings parents agreed, she was afraid that her parents would not agree!
If she didnt have a child, Shangguan ning would definitely call her every day to urge her to have a grandson!
I dont care about anyone else. As long as youre willing, I can withstand all the pressure. Lou Ziling said seriously. Its too hard to be pregnant and give birth. I cant bear to let you suffer. I dont like children either. If you dont like them, we wont have children.
Jing Xi was touched to see that he was serious.
Silly girl, who doesnt have children? I want to have a child of the two of us. If we had a lively child running around the house every day andughing every day, how interesting would that be! So what if its hard? its worth it! I still think that my mother has too few children. If I had a younger brother or sister, it would be perfect!
Jing Xi had always wanted a younger brother. She felt that she could take him out to cause trouble and y.
Unfortunately, Jing Yichen had the same idea as Lou Ziling. He didnt want Shangguan ning to give birth to a child because he thought it was too hard.
He said that when her mother was pregnant with Jing Rui, she did not have much reaction and did not have morning sickness. But after she was pregnant with her, she vomited whatever she ate and lost a lot of weight. In theter stage of the pregnancy, her body swelled up and she could not get out of bed. She had to lie in the hospital for a month.
Therefore, when Lou Ziling told her not to have children, she was touched beyond words.
Only when he loved her deeply and felt his heart ache for her would he say such words.
It was another weekend. The spring sun was bright and the weather was pleasant. Lou Ziling drove Jing Xi out to y.
Jing Xi had been to countless ces since she was a child. She had traveled almost all over the world, but she had basically been alone, apanied by her dedicated bodyguards.
Now that she had Lou Ziling, she felt that the world was infinitely beautiful.
City W was located in a hilly area with rolling mountains everywhere. However, the terrain was rtively low, which was very suitable for sightseeing.
The scenery in the wilderness was great, and along the way, there were many young couples walking hand in hand intimately in the picturesque mountains and rivers.
Jing Xi was full of energy as soon as she got outside. She took Lou Ziling for a walk. They had a stomach full of wild fruits, but they were still not satisfied.
Lou Ziling had always known that she loved to eat wild fruits.
When she was 14 years old, she loved to eat these wild fruits that she didnt know their names.
Before she left, Lou Ziling dug out a seedling.Take it back and nt it in our Manor. Let it reproduce a few more. You can eat it if you want.
Jing Xi stood on her tiptoes and kissed Lou Ziling.This is good!
A surprised voice suddenly sounded,Jing Xi? Lou Ziling?!
Jing Xi and Lou Ziling turned around at the same time and saw Ji moxuan holding Wu Weis hand, standing not far away with a shocked face.
Xixi, arent you Engaged to Li Xiao? This Lou Ziling
Ji moxuan didnt continue. His intuition told him that Jing Xi wasnt the kind of person who would cheat on her husband. However, he had just seen Jing Xi kiss Lou Ziling.
Jing Xi ignored Ji moxuans surprise. She held Lou Zilings arm and greeted him with a smile.Are you here with your girlfriend? Aiya, city W is the most suitable season to see the scenery. There are a lot of tourists this year!
Her eyes moved to Wu Weis face. Seeing Li Weis gentle and elegant appearance, she sneered in her heart.
She hadnt forgotten how she had called a few hoodlums to humiliate her back in North America!
Acting so gentle, as expected of an actor!
However, she had acted in a few dramas, but she had never been popr. Ji moxuan must have invested a lot of money to support her, but she had never been popr. That was her own problem.
Wu Wei now knew Jing Xis identity. It was her idea to travel to city W.
She was anxious to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry, but the resources that Ji moxuan had found for her were simply too poor!
She had acted in a few dramas, but she had never acted as the female lead. She was just a foil to others!
The best entertainmentpany was Star Media, which was under Jingsheng enterprise.
Just like its name, the stars created by Star Media were truly dazzling! Zhong ruoshui, the most popr starlet at the moment, took on a big production film as soon as she appeared. She became the female lead and shot to fame. At the film festival, she received the Best Female Lead, Best Neer, and many other awards that made people jealous!
It was almost impossible to get to know Jing Rui.
But if he wanted to get to know Jing Xi, Ji moxuan was the best springboard!
Although she had offended Jing Xi a few years ago, as long as she was humble enough, apologized to Jing Xi, and ttered her, they would definitely be good sisters soon!
Even that idiot tan Ruyi could be good friends with Jing Xi, so why couldnt she?
Wu Wei gave Jing Xi a smile that he thought was perfect, and then he couldnt help but look at Lou Ziling.
He was a perfect man!
Chapter 1597
Chapter 1597: Im especially petty
Trantor: 549690339
He was wearing white casual clothes and ck Nike sneakers. It was the most ordinary and simple outfit, but it revealed a unique temperament. It was extremely cold and inexplicably made people want to get close to him.
He had a tall and straight figure, long and slender legs, and a handsome face.
He was holding a small green sapling in his hand. Not only did it not destroy his beauty, but it also gave him a trace of fireworks and vitality.
Wu Wei remembered Lou Ziling. She had met him with Ji moxuan before. At that time, Ji moxuan had said that she was his cousin in front of Lou Ziling and did not dare to admit their rtionship.
The four of them walked slowly together. Wu Wei tried to talk to Jing Xi several times, but Jing Xi ignored him.
Ji moxuan didnt know that Wu Wei wanted to enter Star Media or that she wanted to get close to the Jing family. He was anxious to know what was going on with Jing Xi.
Its nothing. Im engaged to Li Xiao and he didnt stop me from meeting my friends! Hes happy to let Lou Ziling apany me to y. After all, his legs are inconvenient.
Jing Xi had a yful smile on her face. She thought it was really interesting to be so funny.
Lou Ziling had two identities, but she only had one. She had to get another one!
Ji moxuan was so shocked that he forgot to reply. Wu Wei finally found an opening and immediately said,Wont li Xiao be jealous? Xixi, your friend is so handsome, isnt he afraid that youll run off with someone else?
Jing Xi nced at Li Wei coldly and said,Mo Xuan, who is this person? Do I know him? Those who call me Xixi should be acquaintances. Did I lose my memory?
Wu Wei was suddenly embarrassed, but he forced himself not to change his expression.
Ji moxuan was also a little embarrassed. In the past, Jing Xi was very easy to talk to. She had rarely been so sharp and merciless.
She had a superb memory and it was impossible for her to forget who Wu Wei was.
He didnt forget to pretend that he didnt know her. He was obviously still angry.
This is my friend. There might be some misunderstandings between you two. Itll be fine after you exin it clearly.
Wu Wei immediately squeezed out a smile.Yes, it was my fault. Please dont take it to heart, miss Jing. Mo Xuan kept saying that youre the most magnanimous and magnanimous, so I think youll soon forget about those small things.
Jing Xi raised her eyebrows.Im not magnanimous at all. Im a petty person. I like to argue and bring up old scores.
Wu Wei looked at her in shock. He didnt expect her to say that she was petty without caring about her image or how Lou Ziling looked at her.
It was obvious that she liked Lou Ziling very much. Shouldnt she be more magnanimous and elegant in front of the man she liked?
In the entertainment industry, no woman would belittle herself like that, not even in a joking manner.
She turned to look at Lou Ziling, only to find that he didnt seem to care at all. He was holding Jing Xis hand and caressing it gently. He had no interest in their conversation at all.
Ji moxuan came out to smooth things over.Xixi, it was all Wu Weis fault. She has also apologized to you. You werent injured at that time, and she was even pped by you. Can you give me some face and let all those things pass?
Of course you can! Jing Xi suddenly smiled. We are friends. Since Wu Wei is your friend, she is also my friend. I will definitely take care of her in the future!
Ji mo Xuan heaved a sigh of relief and smiled,I knew it, youre really a magnanimous person!
Wu Weis heart was in a mess, but he still had to show a grateful smile on his face.Thank you, miss Jing. Please take care of me in the future! She said.
Sure, Im the best at taking care of people. Ive taken good care of Miss Li, right, Ziling?
Lou Ziling held back herughter and said seriously,Thats right. Li Xiao is very grateful to you. He said that you treat her sister very well.
If the real Li Xiao knew about this in the underworld, he would definitely be grateful to Jing Xi for avenging him.
Li Xiao wasnt the only one. All the deceased souls of the Li family that Li Jing had killed would probably be happy to see Li Jing being punished.
Jing Xi chuckled and waved at Ji moxuan.Were leaving. You guys have fun in city W. If you encounter any difficulties, you cane to the Li family manor to find me!
Ill definitely make your difficult task even more difficult!
Jing Xi and Lou Ziling had finally gotten rid of the two pieces of sticky candy. Jing Xi used to think that Ji moxuan was a good person and it was easy to talk to him. But why did she feel that he was not likable at all today?
Although that Wu Wei was really pretty, Ji moxuan was the young master of the Ji family. What kind of beauty had he not seen? How could he be so easily controlled by Wu Wei?
Even Luo Feiyang knew that Wu Wei was not a good person. He had scolded Ji moxuan many times, but Ji moxuan refused to give up. Now, he still treated her as his real girlfriend and brought her around.
Why didnt Ji Bo, the Father, do anything?
Ji moxuans mother wasnt someone to be trifled with, right? Luo Feiyang had said that Wu Wei had been kept by countless old men. In the past, she was willing to do anything for money. Even if she looked like a gentle and virtuousdy now, the Ji family would never let her in.
That woman of Ji moxuan s, do you have a grudge against her?
Lou Ziling held Jing Xis hand and walked slowly with her on the grass-covered path. His voice was low and cold.
They suddenly came here. I guess they have a request for you.
You need my help? Jing Xi asked. That woman is called Wu Wei. She used to think that I liked Ji moxuan and hired a hooligan to bully me, but I taught her a lesson! She still dares to beg me? Im already giving face to Ji moxuan by not making her as miserable as Li Jing!
Lou Zilings face turned cold. This woman had even hired a hooligan to deal with Jing Xi!
Damn it!
She has been trying to find something to talk about all day. She must be trying to get close to family Jing.
It seems like she doesnt like the resources that Ji moxuan has found for her. She wants me to find her some resources! Jing Xi immediately understood.
She thought for a while andughed out loud.Should I say that shes too naive or too confident? Did she think that just because she had Ji moxuan, she could have me? Ji moxuan will listen to her and find resources for her. I dont like women, so why should I listen to her?
Theres no need to pay attention to this kind of person. The next time we meet, well just pretend that we dont know each other, including Ji moxuan. If a man was so easily led by the nose by a woman, he would not be able to achieve great things. Family Ji will fall into someone elses hands sooner orter.
Jing Xi nodded. She was also worried that Ji moxuan would not be able to control family Jis enterprise in the future.
No wonder Ji Bo refused to step down and would rather be exhausted than to hand over the power to Ji moxuan. He knew that Ji moxuan could not be the president of the enterprise.
Jing Xi was a little surprised. Where was the cheerful boy from before?
Ziling, lets help him this once. Ji moxuans character is not bad. I want to help him this once. Uncle Ji dotes on me a lot. Ill help Ji moxuan get rid of Wu Wei. Its a little repayment to uncle Ji.

Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling nodded without hesitation.Yes, I will.
It was not a big deal anyway. Jing Xi did not have many friends. If Ji moxuans problem was solved, she would be happy.
However, Wu Wei was more urgent than they thought.
The next day, she and Ji moxuan brought gifts over.
The servant took them into the manor, and Wu Wei was shocked along the way.
Even though she had followed Ji moxuan here once before, it was night time and she couldnt see anything clearly. She only felt that it was eerie and terrifying.
It was daytime this time, and it was the warm season ofte spring and early summer. The manor was lush with vegetation, flowers in full bloom, birds chirping and the fragrance of flowers. The pavilions were well-arranged, and running water was introduced into the manor. The spring water was flowing, and it was more like a paradise than the ce they had gone to yesterday!
Wu Weis eyes were red with jealousy!
She had thought that she had seen enough and lived an extremely extravagant life, but she had not expected that Jing Xis life was the life of a realdy from an aristocratic family.
She nced at Ji moxuan beside her without saying a word and felt a little disdainful of his ipetence and gentleness.
His family clearly had a huge amount of wealth, but he couldnt even get it!
She had to suffer with him and live in a broken vi, which was nothing like his Manor!
Moreover, although she was with Ji moxuan now, she knew that in Ji moxuans heart, she would never be able topare to Jing Xi.
Hmph, Jing Xi would rather marry a disfigured cripple than a good-for-nothing man like him!
Other than her who was willing to follow Ji moxuan, which other woman was willing to follow him?
Whats so good about Jing Xi? shes engaged to Li Xiao, but shes still with Lou Ziling!
Wu Wei looked down at her perky chest and felt that it was not impossible for her to defeat Jing Xi.
She had been in the entertainment industry for a long time, so she knew all too well what men were like!
The Good Men on the screen were a mess in private. Many married men also liked to cheat!
If she could marry Li Xiao, wouldnt this entire Manor be hers?
Wu Wei felt that if she could be the owner of this Manor, she would wake upughing in her dreams!
Li Wei was extremely excited along the way, but Ji moxuan was in an unusually low mood.
He was very upset. He felt that it was such a pity for a woman like Jing Xi to marry Li Xiao.
At the same time, his heart ached. Jing Xi must not have been happy marrying Li Xiao. Then, she fell into Lou Zilings arms. She was such a good girl, but she had be bad!
If he had been more cruel and cut off all contact with Wu Wei, would Jing Xi have chosen him?
Unfortunately, everything could not be repeated.
There were many pavilions in the Li family manor, and Jing Xi received them in one of the pavilions with great scenery.
Jing Xi had never entertained guests in the manor before. When Ji moxuan and Wu Wei came, she felt that it was very fresh and not so unpleasant to the eye.
The old Butler brought the servants to serve various desserts and fruits. He poured jasmine tea for the three of them and left respectfully.
Jing Xi was wearing a Rouge-colored long dress, her long hair draped over her shoulders. She sat in an antique Pavilion, making Ji moxuan and Wu Wei suddenly feel as if they had traveled through time and returned to the ancient times hundreds of years ago.
The scene in front of him could only be seen in a historical drama.
Xixi, wheres Li Xiao? He Didnt he apany you?
Ji moxuans heart ached even more. He could never understand why the Jing family would marry Jing Xi to Li Xiao.
For money? For profit?
But that was impossible. Wasnt Jing Xi the most loved by the family?
Did Jing Xi want to marry Li Xiao of her own ord?
This was even more impossible!
The person she liked was Lou Ziling!
Jing Xi smiled brightly.Hes here with me. He knew you wereing, so he didnt go to thepany today. Hes picking flowers for me in the middle of theke!
Ji moxuan and Wu Wei turned their heads at the same time.
There was a Green Lake outside the pavilion, and in the middle of theke was a blooming water lily. Among the dense water lilies, there was a small boat.
Soon, the boat started to move. They paddled to the shore. Lou Ziling sat in her electric wheelchair and entered the pavilion.
Wearing a dark gold mask, he put a bunch of blooming water lilies into a ss bottle and handed it to Jing Xi.Youre going to take all the water lilies in our house.
This flower is big and beautiful. I like it! Jing Xi took the flower and smiled. Theres still a pond, and itll be enough to harvest this summer!
Ji moxuan looked at Jing Xi in a daze. She was actually so intimate with Li Xiao!
And Li Xiao Seemed to dote on her a lot.
This water lily is really not bad. The color is beautiful, and I like it very much! Miss Jing, can you give me one?
Wu Wei wanted to attract Li Xiaos attention. She asked Jing Xi for the water lily. She knew that Jing Xi would not refuse in front of Li Xiao, as it would make her seem petty.
But Jing Xi rejected him with a smile and said mercilessly,No, this is a gift from my fianc. How can I give it to you? Dont tell me youre interested in our young master Li? Xiao, you see, youre attracting bees and butterflies again!
Lou Ziling held Jing Xis hand and said,Im wearing a mask that doesnt even show my face. If theres someone whos interested in me, that means that theyre interested in my money. But all my money is in your hands.
Wu Weis face turned red and white, while Ji moxuan looked at her with some dissatisfaction.
Every time she took Wu Wei out, she knew her limits. What was going on today? Why did she ask for flowers when she knew that Li Xiao had picked them for Jing Xi? Didnt he give her enough flowers?
Xixi, youve misunderstood. Weiwei didnt mean anything by it. Shes a straightforward person. She only asked for flowers and nts because she likes them. She didnt think too much about it.
Jing Xi nced at Ji moxuan indifferently. Its not that Wu Wei didnt think that much, but you didnt think that much, right?
He was really a fool. He treated Wu Wei so well, but Wu Wei still had other thoughts about Lou Ziling!
This woman, he absolutely could not have her!
Oh, I didnt mean anything else, I was just joking! Why is your girlfriend so scared? her face is pale!
Jing Xi was the best at pranking people.
Even Li Jing wasnt her opponent, let alone Wu Wei.
Wu Weis face turned white because his thoughts were exposed.
She had just been nning to hook up with Li Xiao, but Jing Xi had seen through her with one look!
Was this girl a demon?
Miss Jing, you cant make such a joke. Otherwise, young master Li will be unhappy, and Mo Xuan will also be unhappy. I only have mo Xuan in my heart. Im not as lucky as you to have young master Li pampering you and Lou Ziling, your good friend, apanying you.

Chapter 1599: Sacrificing ones looks
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xiughed.Oh my, youre too impatient!
She had alreadyined to Li Xiao so quickly?
He was courting death!
Although Ji moxuan was a soft-hearted person, he wasnt stupid. He immediately understood Wu Weis intention to sow discord.
However, he didnt stop Wu Wei. He also wanted to know what Li Xiao thought about this matter. It was impossible for him to be generous enough to share his fiance with other men, right?
However, Li Xiao did not seem to have any reaction. He was still sitting in the wheelchair coldly, holding Jing Xis hand and gently stroking it as if he was touching a rare treasure.
Ji moxuan suddenly felt that wearing a mask on his face was not a bad idea. It couldpletely cover his expression and outsiders would not know what Li Xiao was thinking.
Wu Weis words didnt cause any waves, but she didnt give up. She smiled gently, but her light words hid a sharp knife,Are you good friends with Lou Ziling, Master Li? I dont know if youve seen Lou Ziling before, but hes a handsome man. Before the Lou family went bankrupt, countless youngdies from aristocratic families liked him, and Jing Xi was one of them!
She quickly covered her mouth.Oh, Im so sorry. Im used to being straightforward. I just say what I think. If Im wrong, please dont take it to heart.
The smile on Jing Xis face grew wider and wider. She sounded like she was in a good mood and was not affected at all.I still like him even now! My fianc and Lou Ziling have already discussed it. They will take turns to apany me. When one of them is too busy, the other will rece them. Anyway, I cant be short of people by my side.
Is that true?
This works too?
She had only heard that many rich men had mistresses outside, and they didnt dare to let their wives know. She had never seen a woman who was about to get married, but still had such an ambiguous rtionship with another man so tantly!
Wu Wei was already jealous to death!
Lou Ziling had no power or influence, but he had a perfect figure and a handsome face. Although Li Xiaos face was disfigured, Lou Ziling had more money than he could spend in his lifetime. He had absolute control over W city!
Two men serving Jing Xi together, why?
However, Ji moxuan felt that something was amiss.
He was not familiar with Li Xiao, but he knew Lou Ziling a little. He was cold, arrogant, and had a strong self-esteem. How could he allow Jing Xi to love him and get engaged to Li Xiao?
He was thinking hard when Lou Ziling said,This youngdy has really put in a lot of effort to tell me who my fiance likes. Then, as a form of repayment, should I reveal to young master Ji about your bunch of men?
Li Wei panicked for a moment, but she quickly calmed down.Dont talk nonsense. I only love mo Xuan. Other than him, I dont have any other man. I dont even have many friends of the opposite sex.
She said it sincerely and looked pitiful as if she had been wronged. It made ones heart ache.
Jing Xi finally understood why Wu Wei had been holding on to Ji moxuan.
Ji moxuan loved this the most!
He probably really thought that Wu Wei was infatuated with him!
The atmosphere was not very good. Jing Xi had originally nned to keep the two for lunch, but now she was not in the mood, so she directly asked them to leave.
Now that there were no outsiders around, Jing Xi took off Lou Zilings mask and kissed him on the lips.Youre not allowed to like that woman!
Lou Ziling carried her and sat her on herp, chuckling.
Are you stupid? how can you be jealous of this kind of woman?
Jing Xi pouted and didnt say anything. This was also one of the psychological shadows in her heart.
When she was a child, she was defeated by this mature and charming woman countless times. Every handsome man she liked was the type of Wu Wei.
Dont worry, other than Ji moxuan, no one else would treat Wu Wei like him. She could only deceive Ji moxuan. If it was someone else, they would be able to see through her lies with a single nce.
Lou Ziling felt wronged. He was just acting with Jing Xi. She wanted to help Ji moxuan get rid of the Vixen, and he was just helping her. How did he get himself involved in this?
In the future, she must not help him with this kind of help!
But the next day, Jing Xi ordered Lou Ziling,You use Li Xiaos name and ask Wu Wei to get a room!
Pfft!
Lou Ziling spat out the water she had just drunk.
Baby, I was wrong, okay? I dont like her at all. Shes nothing in my eyes. She cant even bepared to our Manors big sister MA!
Sister MA was a mute. She worked as a gardener in the manor, holding a pair of big scissors every day and taking care of all kinds of nts very well.
Hearing Lou Ziling call her baby, Jing Xi smiled happily in his arms.Aiya, Im not jealous anymore. Im just making a scam to lead Wu Wei in, and then let Ji moxuan catch the adulterer! He saw with his own eyes that Wu Wei was unfaithful to him and must have given up!
Lou Ziling didnt know whether tough or cry,but you cant sacrifice your fiancs looks! Im not going, otherwise, if that woman pounced into my arms, youll definitely take my life!
Jing Xi was overjoyed.Thats impossible. Im not that petty. If Li Xiao doesnt want to go, Ill have to ask Lou Ziling to go.
Were not going!
Lou Ziling hugged Jing Xi.Little girl, youre so generous. Youre actually willing to let me be the bait! Dont mention this matter again, let Ji moxuan solve his own problem. He cant even handle a woman, he should be made to suffer more and learn his lesson!
Jing Xi quickly covered her chest to stop him from biting her.Alright, alright, alright, youve passed the test! Dont bite me, it hurts!
Lou Ziling stopped biting and started sucking.
Jing Xis body went soft from his teasing. She said coyly,This wont work. Wu Wei definitely wont give up. Her goal has changed from me to you. I need to get rid of her before I can be at ease. Quickly think of a way!
Shut up! Lou Ziling blurted out.Kill him!
How can I do that? I cant take his life. If Wu Wei dies, Ji moxuan will hate me.
Alright, let Luo Feiyange. Im in a wheelchair and Im wearing a mask, so no one will recognize me. Just let him take some medicine and make his voice a little hoarse!
Jing Xis eyes lit up. She hugged Lou Ziling and kissed her.Alright, let Luo Feiyang y you! Luo Feiyang has long found Wu Wei an eyesore, so hell definitely be happy to make a fool of her!
Jing Xi happily went to call Luo Feiyang.
Luo Feiyang had been making out with tan Ruyi when he was interrupted by Jing Xi. When he heard that it was about Wu Wei, he was even more furious!
This woman was haunting him. He simply wanted to throw her to Mars!
Okay, Ill bring Ruyi with me tomorrow!
Luo Feiyang hurriedly hung up the phone and buried his head in tan Ruyis chest.Ruyi, lets continue!
Chapter 1600
Chapter 1600: A test
Trantor: 549690339
The next morning, Luo Feiyang held tan Ruyis hand and arrived at the airport in city W.
In the taxi, tan Ruyi leaned on Luo Feiyangs body sweetly. Recently, Luo Feiyang had been pampering her so much that he had to take her with him wherever she went. Other than sses, she spent most of her time with Luo Feiyang.
There were supposed to be two elective sses today, but Luo Feiyang had insisted on bringing her here.
Tan Ruyi rarely skipped ss. Today was her first time.
Ruyi, today we are going to meet a vicious woman. No matter what she says, you are not allowed to believe it, do you hear me?
Tan Ruyi was very sensitive. She immediately raised her head and asked,You liked her?
Yes, I did, Luo Feiyang admitted.But that was a few years ago. Ji moxuan and I were fooled by her. Shes very scheming, so you should stay away from her.
Tan Ruyi was a little jealous.Youve liked so many women. So many.
Didnt I change after meeting you?
Luo Feiyang immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake,I was stupid back then. I wont do it again! When you graduate, well get married!
He had dated countless girlfriends and ran into them everywhere he went. He had made tan Ruyi angry several times.
However, he had never fallen in love with anyone else except for Wu Wei a few years ago.
Even for Jing Xi, he was only pursuing her like a gust of wind, not out of love.
However, tan Ruyi was different. This was the first girl he truly fell in love with after he matured.
He didnt have any feelings for Wu Wei anymore, otherwise, he wouldnt have brought tan Ruyi here.
When they arrived at the Li family manor, Luo Feiyang brought tan Ruyi in directly.
This is Xixis home? Its so Grand!
Tan Ruyi felt that this was not a private residence. It was clearly a Royal Garden!
Whats so Grand about it? its filled with Yin Qi. Who knows how many dead people are buried under these pine trees in their house for the yin Qi to be so heavy!
Tan Ruyi originally thought that the scenery was great, with birds chirping and flowers blooming, but when she heard Luo Feiyang mention a dead person, she immediately hugged him tightly in fear.Dont scare me. How could there be a dead person? who would bury a dead person in their own garden?
Who told you this is a garden? Whose garden had such tall and thick pine and cypress trees? This is clearly a Cemetery!
Tan Ruyi was timid and was about to cry.
Luo Feiyang hugged her tightly, satisfied. He kissed her on the cheek and said,Be good, dont be afraid. With me around, humans and ghosts wont dare to bully you.
Look, his Ruyi was so good, like a frightened little rabbit.
His desire to protect her was bursting!
Thest time he came here with Jing Xi, she looked even calmer than him. She was like a tough woman, and even ghosts were afraid of her!
However, Luo Feiyang turned around with the little rabbit in his arms and did not walk out!
The two of them walked back to their original spot.
What the hell? why cant we get out?
Luo Feiyang rubbed his hair angrily. When he looked down and saw tan Ruyis flustered look, he took a deep breath and said in a low voice,Ruyi, I can definitely bring you out of here!
I believe you, tan Ruyi said softly.
Luo Feiyang was so touched by her innocent trust that he almost cried!
He didnt even have the confidence to walk out of this ce!
Whats the matter with the Li family? why did they build such a broken forest without a guide?
If he still couldnt get out, he would just burn down this forest!
But ten minutester, he actually walked out with tan Ruyi!
How did you get out? Jing Xi looked at them in shock. This forest is like a maze, the roads are all wrong, I cant get out every time I go in!
Luo Feiyang wanted to scold her, but when he saw tan Ruyis admiring eyes, he said calmly,An Eight Trigrams Formation of this level cant stump me.
Jing Xi was even more shocked.You actually knew that there was an eight-trigram array in the forest?! Why cant I see anything?
Yi, he actually guessed correctly!
Luo Feiyang almostughed out loud in his heart, but his handsome face was still calm.I just learned a lot of things.
Jing Xi looked suspiciously at Luo Feiyang, who looked like a master, and then at tan Ruyi, who looked at her with admiration. She felt that something was wrong.
It took her a while to react. Where was that arrogant, despotic, and crazy second generation ancestor?
Luo Feiyangs change was too big!
Tan Ruyi was quite good at disciplining him!
Jing Xi invited the two of them to the pavilion that had served Ji moxuan yesterday. Luo Feiyang looked around and sat on a stone bench.Wheres your crippled and disfigured fianc?
He went out to work! Such arge Manor is all dependent on him!
Jing Xi grinned. She was in a good mood when she saw Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyi. She felt much better than when she saw Ji moxuan and Wu Wei yesterday!
Tan Ruyi was also very happy to see Jing Xi. She decided not to sit with Luo Feiyang and sat directly next to Jing Xi. She said excitedly,Xixi, your house is so big! And its all in an ancient style. This lotus pond is so beautiful, I feel like Ive traveled through time!
Haha, thats true! Jing Xiughed.I wouldnt have married into the Li family if they didnt have money! Looking at this Manor, I feel like Im an Empress living in the pce! Even the Emperor has to listen to the Empress and be free!
Tan Ruyi nodded her head vigorously. Luo Feiyang frowned.Even if you dont marry Li Xiao, you can still live such a life. Youre definitely not doing it for money, so why did you marry him? How did Wu Wei also like a cripple like him?
Isnt that simple? Wu Wei came to my ce with Ji moxuan yesterday as a guest and took a fancy to my Pce-like garden! She seduced my fianc right in front of me. If I dont teach her a lesson, she wont realize that my surname is Jing!
Jing Xi only answered the second question and skipped the first one.
You pretend to be Li Xiao and meet Wu Wei! Go get a room with her, Ill bring Ji moxuan to catch them in the act of adultery!
What?
Luo Feiyang stood up immediately and said,thats not what you said when you called me yesterday! You clearly said yesterday that you were going to take care of that shameless woman. Why did you drag me into this as well?
What are you so anxious about? Im not asking you to really sleep with her. Its just for show. How can I ask you to do something that will let Ruyi down?
Luo Feiyang still wanted to refuse, but tan Ruyi smiled and said,You go ahead, I can test you on the way!
Luo Feiyang had so many girlfriends, and tan Ruyi was worried. She wanted to test him more!
If he couldnt resist Wu Wei, she would break up with him immediately!
Luo Feiyang gritted his teeth.Alright, you guys are ruthless! Ji moxuan this bastard, he actually wanted this young master to help him clean up his rotten peach blossom! He can forget about having a woman in the future!
Chapter 1601
Chapter 1601: Leaking secrets
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang was about the same size as Lou Ziling, but he was a little shorter. However, since he was in a wheelchair, the difference was not obvious.
Jing Xi gave him a dark gold mask, a pill, and a box of dark blue contact lenses.
Luo Feiyang looked at the pile of items and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind!
With these disguises, anyone could be Li Xiao!
Lou Ziling
He suddenlyughed out loud because he had discovered a huge secret!
No wonder Jing Xi was willing to marry him!
No wonder Lou Ziling said that he and Li Xiao would stay with Jing Xi for a day!
It turned out that he was the only one acting!
Jing Xi and tan Ruyi looked at each other, not knowing why Luo Feiyang suddenlyughed like crazy. Was it because he was too happy to take revenge on Wu Wei?
But it didnt look like it!
Luo Feiyang was stillughing. As heughed, he sized up the Li family manor again.
What a good Lou Ziling!
The manor would fall into his hands in the future?
The Li familys assets of hundreds of billions of Yuan were all going to be his?
Luo Feiyang wanted to curse out loud. How could he not have thought of such a brilliant idea!
The Li family only had a puppet-like master and Li Jing, a woman. Controlling them was equivalent to hundreds of billions of dors falling into his own pocket!
Li Jing had brought this upon herself!
If she hadnt killed all her brothers and sisters back then, any one of them would have pointed out that Lou Ziling was the fake Li Xiao, and everything would have been solved!
Unfortunately, she was the only one left among the Li family descendants!
The hundred-year foundation of the Li family would be changed to the Lou family!
Ruthless!
How ruthless!
Lou Ziling had been enduring for so long, pretending to be someone else to steal the family property!
He was so jealous that his eyes turned red!
Xixi, why dont you let Li Xiao do it himself or ask Lou Ziling for help? why did you ask me toe all the way here to pretend to be Li Xiao?
BecauseTheir acting skills are too bad, and its easy for them to be exposed!
Of course, Jing Xi could not tell Luo Feiyang that it was because Lou Ziling refused to have physical contact with Wu Wei. Otherwise, Luo Feiyang would not be able to do it.
Besides, havent you always disliked Wu Wei? She cheated your feelings back then, and now shes cheating your brothers feelings. If you dont do it, who will? Lou Ziling cant wait for Ji moxuan to be with Wu Wei. Why would he break them up?
Luo Feiyang thought about it and felt that it made sense.
Lou Ziling had always disliked him and Ji moxuan. She would definitely not help Ji moxuan to chase away that Vixen.
Luo Feiyang didnt expose the fact that Lou Ziling and Li Xiao were the same person. It didnt matter to him whether they were the same person or not. He just felt that such a big Manor had suddenly be Lou Ziling s, so he was not willing to ept it.
The Luo family could not afford such a huge sum of money to buy such a Manor.
There was only one Manor like this in the world.
He had to manage his familyspany well in the future. Even if he could not afford such a big one, he had to buy a decent one for tan Ruyi as a wedding gift.
He wanted his woman to have what others had.
Lou Ziling had only used three years to own a huge amount of assets. Even if Li Jing was still alive, Lou Ziling would probably be in control of most of the Li familys assets. His worth was at least 100 billion.
Lou Ziling, who he had once looked down on, had now left him far behind!
After Luo Feiyangughed, he fell into a long silence.
Lou Zilings goal had always been clear. She had been moving forward bravely.
On the other hand, if it wasnt for his and Ji moxuans good family background, it was hard to say what kind of life they would be in now!
He was a little better off. He was forced to inherit a part of the family business after being beaten and scolded by his brother, Luo feilie. He was already on the right track.
No one cared about Ji moxuan and he continued to use the title of the eldest young master of the Ji family. He was so charmed by a Vixen that he forgot his original intentions.
He didnt even inherit a single bit of the Ji familys property.
Luo Feiyang was determined to help Ji moxuan get rid of Wu Wei.
The two brothers had to work together to not fall too far behind Lou Ziling.
Fortunately, he had a strict elder brother. Otherwise, he would be just like Ji moxuan,zing around all day long!
At night, when the lights were on, in a five-star hotel in city W, Luo Feiyang put on a mask and sat in a wheelchair. He slowly entered the luxurious Presidential Suite.
In the room, Li Wei was wearing a hot red short skirt and high heels. She said in a sweet and charming voice,Young master Li asked me to wait for you here. Is there something you need?
Luo Feiyang looked at the curvaceous woman and thought of her pure and innocent appearance in school. He felt disgusted.
The purity she had at that time was all an act!
She was a loose woman in her bones. She could actually use a coquettish voice to speak to a man with a disabled leg who was wearing a mask and try to seduce him!
He and Ji moxuan were both blind back then, how could they have taken a fancy to this kind of thing!
Be my lover and I can give you anything you want. In the future, you can only serve me and not let other men touch you!
Wu Wei twisted his waist and walked to Luo Feiyangs side. He slowly squatted down and deliberately showed his full chest in front of him.
In the past, Luo Feiyang thought that she was the most beautiful woman in the world with the most beautiful breasts. But now, the thought of how many men had touched her made him want to vomit in disgust!
For the first time, Luo Feiyang realized that he could bepletely unmoved by a peerless beauty!
His little Ruyi was still the best. She was clean, from her body to her soul, she was iparably pure.
Young master Li, youre different from thest time I saw you!
Wu Weis voice was so sweet that Luo Feiyang had goosebumps all over his body.Whats different?
Its different from head to toe.
Wu Weis hand slowly reached for Luo Feiyangs mask, and Luo Feiyang subconsciously dodged.
Wu Weis hand suddenly changed the angle and pulled off his mask.
Its you, Feiyang!
Wu Wei instantly burst into tears and asked pitifully,Why did you pretend to be Li Xiao to test me?
Jing Xi, who was staring at the surveince video outside the suite, suddenly turned to look at Ji moxuan.Mo Xuan, how did she know it was Feiyang?!
Ji moxuan shook his head and his expression was a little cold,I didnt tell her that you were testing her. Dont do this again. Wu Wei is devoted to me. She will be sad if you keep testing her.
Jing Xi stomped her foot in anger.No, she must have known about our n in advance! She said. Ji moxuan, you must have leaked the secret!
She swiped the door card and pushed the door of the Presidential Suite open. She shouted at Luo Feiyang angrily,Feiyang, lets go. We cant help you with this. Ji moxuan revealed the secret himself! Wu Wei already knew it was you!

Luo Feiyang was so angry that he stepped forward and gave Ji moxuan a fierce punch.Are your eyes blind and your brains flooded? Look into how many men shes been with!
Ji moxuan didnt expect Luo Feiyang to hit him without saying a word and was immediately sent to the ground by Luo Feiyangs punch.
However, he didnt believe that Wu Wei had an affair with another man. He knew that Wu Wei had some small thoughts, but those were somemon calctions of girls. She was alone in the entertainment industry, so wasnt it normal to have a little bit of scheming?
If she was too innocent, she would definitely be deceived by others!
Ji moxuan slowly stood up and his expression was extremely unsightly.I dont need you to care about my girlfriend. I set her up to test her, but she saw through me and said that I was the one who leaked the information! Shes not that kind of person. How is Li Xiao better than me? Its impossible for Weiwei to like him. You guys think too badly of her!
Jing Xi was almost angered to death by his words.
Was Wu Wei so good at pretending in front of him?
Who did she and Luo Feiyang do it for? they were just afraid that he would be tricked by Wu Wei!
Luo Feiyang, on the other hand, was already used to Ji moxuan being like this. He had always trusted Wu Wei and felt that no one in the world loved him more than Wu Wei.
Ji mo Xuan, one day, you will definitely regret it! Xixi, lets go. Dont interfere in this matter again! The Ji family will never agree to him marrying such a woman. He may be stupid, but his parents aren t!
Luo Feiyang took Jing Xis arm and walked out of the room. Wu Weis tears immediately fell.
She threw herself into Ji moxuans arms and cried pitifully,Mo Xuan, I only like you, and Ive never liked anyone else! How could they use Li Xiao to test me? Even if he was a healthy man, I wouldnt like him, let alone a cripple!
Ji moxuan hugged Wu Wei, his heart aching for her being misunderstood. He was determined to make her famous and fulfill her wish to be an actress.
How did you know that Li Xiao was Luo Feiyang in disguise?
Wu Wei paused slightly and said in a charming voice,There are so many ws. I knew something was wrong when I heard his voice. Besides, I have never had any private contact with Li Xiao. Its strange that he asked me toe here.
However, that was not the case. Luo Feiyangs disguise was very good, and his voice was wless.
The biggest w was Ji moxuan.
Before Wu Wei came, he had already noticed Ji moxuans abnormality. Moreover, she had secretly looked at his phone and saw the messages inside, so she knew about this scheme.
She had initially nned to give up on Ji moxuan and look for Li Xiao to back her up. However, she realized that Ji moxuan was the easiest to trick and the softest. If it was someone else, they might not have trusted her so easily.
There was no one else in the luxurious Presidential Suite, only the two of them. Wu Wei deliberately rubbed against Ji moxuans body and took the initiative to kiss him, arousing his desire.
Soon, the two of them fell onto the bed, and the room was hot.
Luo Feiyang had also booked a room in this hotel. Tan Ruyi had been waiting in the room. Seeing that the two of them had returned so quickly and that they did not look too good, she knew that the n had not seeded.
Jing Xis anger had already dissipated. She only hated Ji moxuan for being brainless.
If the Ji family was handed over to him, it would take less than two years for the Ji group to be Wu Weis private property!
Its fine, Xixi. I think he should be punished! Ive also suffered a lot before I know how much of a bastard I was in the past. With Wu Weis character, how long could she be quiet? Its impossible for her to cover up all those messy things!
Youre right, Jing Xi suddenlyughed.As long as theres temptation, she wont be content!
Temptation was everywhere. Even if there was no temptation, she could make it happen.
Furthermore, she could do it without leaving a trace and would not let Ji moxuan know in advance.
She quickly forgot about todays unhappiness. Lou Ziling finished her work and came to pick her up. She smiled and left.
The next day, she didnt go to work. Lou Ziling didnt go to thepany either. He took her out on a trip with Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyi.
Jing Xi and tan Ruyi were talking andughing as they ran around, each carrying arge handful of wildflowers.
Lou Ziling and Luo Feiyang followed behind the two of them and walked slowly.
Luo Feiyang looked at him with a strange gaze but did not say anything.
Why are you looking at me like that? Lou Ziling asked indifferently.
I dont mean anything. I just want to see if you are Lou Ziling or Li Xiao!
Lou Ziling wasnt surprised at all. It was only a matter of time before Luo Feiyang saw through his identity.
If they spent more time with each other, it would be easy for them to notice the simrities between him and Li Xiao.
Now that the situation had stabilized, he was not afraid of Luo Feiyang finding out, nor was he afraid of the Luo family finding out.
Li Jing was nowpletely in his hands. Whether she lived or died was all up to him.
Im Lou Ziling. Theres no need to doubt this.
Luo Feiyang rolled his eyes and said,youre getting more and more capable! Im afraid that even mo Xuan and Ibined arent your match. My dad used to have a very high opinion of you, but Ive always been unconvinced!
When he thought of Ji moxuan, Luo Feiyang became angry.
If he had a proper girlfriend, they would be together right now!
The three girls would have fun together, and the three men would talk about their careers and the worlds situation.
He now wanted to find someone to kill Wu Wei directly!
However, if Wu Wei were to really die, the disgusting things she had done would no longer be verified, and Ji moxuan would be kept in the dark for the rest of his life.
That damned woman cant die yet!
It was a rare day of rxation, and the four of them had a great time.
The next day, Luo Feiyang brought tan Ruyi back to city A. He still had to take care ofpany matters and tan Ruyi still had to go to ss.
Jing Xi and Lou Ziling had also gone to thepany. They were very busy.
The only people who were idle were Ji moxuan and Wu Wei.
Strictly speaking, Ji moxuan was the only one who was idle. Wu Wei was still going around trying to climb up.
She had never given up on her n to capture Li Xiao.
If Jing Xi could be engaged to Li Xiao and still be in an ambiguous rtionship with Lou Ziling, then Li Xiao could also be in an ambiguous rtionship with other women. How bnced was this?
First, she would upy Ji moxuan. If Li Xiaos side seeded, she would then kick him out. If she failed, she still had Ji moxuan to use.
The Li family had also set foot in the media industry, and it was very profitable to film movies and TV series now.
Some low-budget movies could sell at the box office for hundreds of millions, and the profits were very impressive.
In recent months, Lou Ziling had also increased her investment in movies and TV series. She had set up a new filmpany, entertainment media.
Wu Wei had already acted in a few dramas and was a bit famous. She easily got to know the senior management of entertainment media and frequently invited them to dinner and chat.
Chapter 1603
Chapter 1603: Oriole behind
Trantor: 549690339
Ji moxuan didnt know about this and thought that Wu Wei had gone to audition.
Wu Weis appearance was outstanding. Entertainment media was a newly establishedpany, so the senior executives had not experienced a big battle and had never been ttered by a beautiful woman before. They soon fell under Wu Weis pomegranate skirt.
Subordinates were so easy to fool, so the direct leader, Li Xiao, should not be any better. Wu Wei was full of confidence in himself and met Li Xiao in thepany in the name of work.
As the big Boss of countless smallpanies, Li Xiao rarely met people.
Many people knew that he was cold, indifferent, and extremely reticent. Usually, he would only meet with the higher-ups of variouspanies and give some important instructions.
Now that he had merged his smallpany into a big one, fewer and fewer people could see him.
Wu Wei was overjoyed that he was willing to see him.
What surprised Wu Wei even more was that when Li Xiao saw her in thepany, his tone was gentler and he talked more than when he saw her in the Li family manor.
She was so excited that her attitude towards Ji moxuan was even more enthusiastic when she returned to the hotel.
Mo Xuan, Ive received a pretty good drama. I think I can get the best Female Lead or something after I finish acting in it!
Wu Wei said this a few times. Ji moxuan, who had nothing to do, suddenly wanted to see what drama she had epted.
Therefore, after Wu Wei went out, he also went out.
This was the first time that Ji moxuan had followed Wu Wei. At first, he thought that it wasnt a good idea, but soon his face turned white.
He saw Wu Wei apanying a middle-aged man, talking andughing, and even took the initiative to hold the mans arm.
The man was very dishonest. His hands moved up and down, touching Wu Weis body.
In an instant, Ji moxuan felt as disgusted as if he had just eaten a fly!
But he endured it. He endured it for ten days, followed Wu Wei for ten days, and was disgusted for ten days.
She had made friends with countless people in the name of filming. However, after following her for ten days, Ji moxuan already understood that her target was not these people, nor was it the female lead of the movie. It was Li Xiao!
She was trying to get close to Li Xiao, but she deliberately avoided him and Jing Xi, only meeting Li Xiao alone every time.
What Jing Xi and Luo Feiyang had said was true!
Wu Wei actually
She had lied to him!
He had been deceived so bitterly!
Ji moxuan gave Wu Wei a call, but Wu Wei lowered his voice and said,Im filming, before hanging up in a hurry.
Acting?
Ha!
The person sitting opposite her was obviously Li Xiao!
What movie? Whats next is a passionate scene?
Ji moxuan angrily smashed his phone. He hated Wu Wei, but he hated himself even more!
The next day, he left Wu Wei and took a ne home.
What kind of woman could he not have?
As long as he could inherit family Jis enterprise, he could choose any woman he wanted!
Luo Feiyang went to the Ji familys house to see Ji moxuan once, then turned around and called Jing Xi. His tone was full of praise,Xixi, youre amazing! Ji moxuan abandoned Wu Wei so quickly. Hes been studying and working day and night like a madman for the past two days. I feel like hes lost interest in women!
I just suffered such a big blow, its normal to not trust women for the time being! It would be fine after the wounds of love healed!
Jing Xi was lying on the sofa, her voice happy.
She felt a sense of aplishment after solving Wu Weis matter so smoothly and rescuing Ji moxuan.
However, Lou Ziling had worked hard to y along with Wu Wei.
She chatted briefly with Luo Feiyang and then hung up the phone.
She waited for a while, but Lou Ziling still didnte home.
Ever since they got engaged, Lou Ziling rarely came home sote. Even if he couldnte home, he would call her in advance.
Did Wu Wei ask him out for dinner again?
But its already sote, shouldnt they have finished eating?
Jing Xi felt a little uneasy. She didnt want to save Ji moxuan and get Lou Ziling into trouble.
Wu Wei was the campus Belle when she was in school. There were a lot of people who pursued her, so her beauty was beyond doubt.
Did Lou Ziling
No, no!
Lou Ziling was not someone who was easily moved!
Jing Xi frowned and called Lou Ziling, but no one picked up.
She didnt give up and kept calling. On the seventh time, someone picked up the phone and a seductive voice came from the other end.Young master Li, dont be like this Ah
On the other end of the phone, there was the sound of a man and a womans heavy breathing.
Jing Xis mind went nk.
That was impossible!
When she asked Lou Ziling to get in touch with Wu Wei, he was clearly against it!
Why did he touch Li Wei?
The call was hung up very quickly, and when she called again, the phone was already turned off.
Jing Xi waited for the whole night. Lou Ziling did note home until dawn.
This had never happened before!
He had always been going home for the night, but something had happened to him!
Jing Xis eyes were red. She changed her clothes and put on her shoes. As soon as she walked out of the building, she saw a man walking slowly towards her.
It was Li Jing!
Wheres Lou Ziling?Jing Xi looked at her coldly.
Li Jingsplexion wasnt good. Her face was pale, but she seemed to be in good spirits.
Haha, miss Jing, I didnt know you were so generous to share your fianc with another woman! You pushed him to Wu Wei. Why are you asking me where Lou Ziling is?
Li Jing looked around and saw the beautiful scenery. The house was also well-maintained and she couldnt help but smile.Not bad, not bad. Youve taken care of my Manor so well. Its right for me to ask Wu Wei to thank Lou Ziling!
You did something to Lou Ziling?
Jing Xi looked at Li Jing with a sharp gaze, her anger almost uncontroble.
What do you mean I did something to Lou Ziling? Didnt you ask him to hook up with Wu Wei? Its none of my business! He was with Li Wei the entire night. Did I force him to?
Li Jings lips curved into a cruel smile.You made me wish I were dead. Now, its my turn to take revenge on you! I know youre a tough guy, so I wont hit you. The best revenge for you is for Lou Ziling to sleep with another woman! Hahaha, arent you two getting married? Get married. When you get married, Wu Wei will have a child in his stomach!
Impossible! Lou Ziling would never touch any woman other than me!
Not necessarily. You are still too young, miss Jing! What do you think Wu Wei relied on to make Ji moxuan not leave him? The way she deals with men, any man would be moved!
Li Jing was in a good mood when she saw the light of day again. She wanted tough out loud when she saw Jing Xis pale face.
It was all thanks to Jing Xi for giving her this opportunity!
If it wasnt for Jing Xi, she didnt know when she would be able to find Lou Zilings weakness and escape from the cage.

Li Jing held up a Golden Room card and showed it to Jing Xi.Look at how considerate I am, Ive even prepared the room card for you. Go quickly, maybe youll see the two of them in bed! I hope you wont die of anger, or else it wont be fun!
Jing Xi grabbed the room card and walked out with a pale face.
When she was far away from Li Jing, so far that no one could see her, her tears fell.
Impossible! Lou Ziling was not that kind of person!
He was different from Ji moxuan!
Jing Xi drove to the hotel as fast as she could and found the room marked on the card.
She stood in front of the door, but suddenly did not dare to swipe the card to enter.
She was afraid that she would see Lou Ziling lying in the same bed with another woman. She would break down!
If she had known that this day woulde, she would never have let Lou Ziling test Li Wei.
Lou Ziling didnt agree to this in the first ce. It was only after she acted coquettishly and made a fuss for two days that he finally agreed.
She was so silly. She knew that Wu Wei was interested in Lou Ziling, but she still sent Lou Ziling to her!
Jing Xis fingers were shaking as she held the room card. She swiped the card and walked in.
The room was veryrge, but it was a mess. Men and womens clothes were everywhere, and bath towels were thrown all over the floor. There were two *** on the sofa, one of which had been opened and used, while the other was intact.
The room was filled with a disgusting smell, but Jing Xi still did not want to believe it. She had to see Lou Ziling sleeping with another woman with her own eyes. She had to hear Lou Ziling tell her that he had slept with another woman. Only then would she believe it!
The bedroom door was open, and Jing Xi walked in, stepping on her messy clothes.
The curtains in the room were drawn, and it was a little dark, but it was enough to see that there was a man and a woman lying on the bed.
They were hugging each other,pletely naked. The nket had been kicked off the bed.
Jing Xi gritted her teeth and turned on the light. The bedroom suddenly lit up, and she saw the faces of the two people on the bed.
The woman was indeed Wu Wei, but the man was not Lou Ziling.
Jing Xis tears flowed out uncontrobly as she gasped for breath.
Thats great, its not Lou Ziling!
She was scared to death!
But where did he go?
The two of them were sleeping so soundly that they must have been drugged. Was Lou Ziling drugged?
Jing Xi searched the entire suite in a panic. She did not find Lou Ziling, but she did see his wheelchair and mask.
He had thrown away his wheelchair and mask. Where was he?
Jing Xi left the hotel and stood on the busy road, not knowing where to find Lou Ziling.
It was like this three years ago. He suddenly disappeared without a trace, and she suddenly lost him.
A ck Jaguar slowly stopped in front of her, and a tall man covered in blood walked out of the car.
Xixi, what are you doing here? Go home and wait for me, its dangerous here!
Lou Ziling, where have you been? Jing Xi cried and threw herself on him. Im so scared!
Lou Ziling groaned. Blood oozed out of his wound and his white shirt was stained.
But he didnt push Jing Xi away. Instead, he hugged her tightly and kissed her forehead with his dry lips. Its okay, dont be afraid, Im here!
Are you hurt? Why was there so much blood? Hurry to the hospital!
Lou Ziling didnt move. She asked her in a hoarse voice,Wheres Li Jing? Is she in the hotel? I went to the apartment where she was detained to catch her, but I fell into her trap. Go to the airport immediately and return to A city. Donte back for now!
Li Jing isnt here. She went to the manor! Im not going back to A city. Ill follow you. Lou Ziling, Ill always be with you!
Jing Xi looked at Lou Zilings pale face and was scared out of her wits.Youre bleeding a lot. Lets go to the hospital first!
Lou Zilings subordinate, who was standing behind him, also whispered,Boss, weve lost the upper hand. We dont stand a chance against Li Jing now. Youre so seriously injured, you should go to the hospital first! This ce has already attracted a lot of attention!
Okay, lets go to the hospital! Lou Ziling nodded with difficulty.
Not only was he injured, but many of his men were also injured. After they entered the apartment, she blew up the entire building.
However, Li Jing didnt know that Lou Ziling was also involved in the explosion. She thought that Lou Ziling was having sex with Wu Wei in the hotel.
The explosion immediately attracted the polices tracking and investigation. Lou Ziling had a hard time escaping from the polices encirclement with her people.
His Foundation in city W was still too shallow. He was powerful in the business world, but he had no influence in the political world.
Therefore, Lou Ziling didnt dare to go to arge public hospital. Instead, he went to a private hospital that he had a good rtionship with.
The director of the hospital was a young man in his 20s. His name was Pan Yan. He had been able to inherit the private hospital at such a young age because of Lou Zilings full support for the past three years.
Seeing Lou Zilings injuries, Pan Yans expression turned serious. Not only did he personally go to the hospital, but he also called the best surgeon in the hospital.
He was shot twice in his left shoulder, why did he only arrive now? Anyter and your blood will run dry!
Pan Yan had always respected Lou Ziling, and this was the first time he was angry at him.
He nced at Jing Xi, whose eyes were swollen from crying. Although he had guessed that she was Lou Zilings fiance, he still rudely drove her out.
There cant be anyone waiting in the operating room. Get out!
After Jing Xi was driven out, Lou Ziling said in a low voice,I cant even bear to be fierce to her, youre too fierce
Pan Yan quickly transfused blood to him, while another surgeon injected anesthetic into him and prepared to take out the bullet.
Youre already dead, why do you care about this mess? If I didnt owe you so much, I would have kicked you out too! With your injuries, the police will be inviting me to the police station for tea in a while!
Lou Ziling couldnt hear what he was saying. He had lost too much blood and had passed out.
The other surgeon shook his head helplessly.He just fainted. I thought he would have fainted long ago! Hes so seriously injured and he can still walk in and talk. Is he Iron Man?
Half an hourter, Pan Yan pushed Lou Ziling out of the operating room. When he saw Jing Xi, he didnt look happy.Who are you to him? Next time, can you not wait until hes dying before sending him over? My medical skills are average. If he has one foot in the door of hell, I cant save him!
Jing Xi had never been ridiculed like this before, but she was not angry at all.
Because even she wanted to give herself a good scolding.
She didnt know what had happened, but she knew that Lou Ziling didnte back for a good time. She was in danger.

After entering the ward, Pan Yan and Lou Zilings men carried him to the bed. They could not bear to see Jing Xi like this when they saw her worried face.
Hes fine. He just lost too much blood. Weve already given him a blood transfusion and removed the bullet. Hell wake up soon.
Jing Xi looked at him and said in a low voice,Many thanks!
No need to thank me. I owed him anyway. I thought he would never need me in this life!
Pan Yan said a few words and left.
Lou Ziling didnt wake up until the evening. When he opened his eyes, he saw Jing Xi with red eyes.
He wanted to raise his hand to touch her face, but the movement of his arm touched the wound on his shoulder. He groaned in pain and his arm fell down again.
Jing Xi quickly held his hand, feeling both heartache and joy.Ziling, youre finally awake! Dont move, just lie down!
Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xis Haggard face and asked softly,Ive been sleeping for a long time?
No, Jing Xi said in a low voice, wiping her tears.I just slept for the whole afternoon.
Then why do you look like you havent slept for a few days? Dont guard me anymore, go and rest!
Im fine. I just didnt sleepst night, so Im not in a good state. Ill feel more at ease with you by my side.
Lou Ziling patted the empty space beside her.Come here and sleep with me for a while.
Are you hungry? do you want to eat something first?
Lou Ziling couldnt eat anything at this moment. He only felt weak and wanted to sleep.
Im not eating. Ill sleep first.
Jing Xi took off her shoes andy down carefully beside him, falling asleep with him.
When Pan Yan came in with the medicine, the first thing he saw was the two of them sleeping together.
Tsk! He must have seen that I dont have a girlfriend, so he deliberately provoked me!
Pan Yan mumbled to himself as he gave Lou Ziling an IV drip. His action woke Lou Ziling up. When he saw Lou Zilings sharp eyes, he was shocked.
Um ... Im already being very gentle, you can continue sleeping. This is an anti-inmmatory medicine. Ill give you a nutrient infusionter, and you wont even have to eat dinner!
Lou Ziling nodded slowly and soon fell asleep again.
When she woke up again, it was already the next morning.
The effect of the anesthetic had worn off. The ce where she was hit by the bullet was burning in pain. Lou Ziling found it difficult to even get up.
However, Jing Xis condition had improved a lot. Except for the fact that her face was still a little pale, she had regained her usual calmness and confidence.
She took a wet towel and wiped Lou Zilings face and hands. She took care of him carefully and fed him porridge. Then, she kissed him gently on the face.
Ziling, I wont do such a stupid thing again.
Lou Ziling held her hand and said,What stupid thing did you do?
I just wanted you to pretend to like Wu Wei, this kind of stupid thing.
I should have listened to you and dealt with this woman in another way, Jing Xi said in a low voice.I shouldnt have put you at risk.
Lou Ziling smiled,you just found out? I thought you didnt care! She insisted that I agree to have a meal with that kind of woman and even entertained her in the office every day. I was so upset two days ago that I felt that Ji moxuan was more important than me.
No one is more important than you, Jing Xi said seriously.I just trust you. I dont think youll ever fall for another woman.
Thats not necessarily true. Wu Wei is really good looking. Shes a natural beauty who can be charming anddylike. Shes gentle when she talks and has a very low attitude. Shes very good at serving people. If youre a man, you cant control yourself. Do you think Im a man?
Jing Xi was stunned, and tears gushed out of her eyes. Even her voice changed.Lou Ziling, if you dare to like her, I will ... I will ...
Lou Ziling didnt care about the pain in her wound. She immediately sat up and hugged Jing Xi.Silly girl, dont cry, dont cry. How can I like her! Didnt you just say that you trust me? Howe you dont trust me after I said a few words?
Didnt you say that a man cant control himself?Jing Xis tears were still falling. Then are you a man or not?
Lou Ziling was helpless. He had dug a hole for himself!
Dont you know that Im not a man?
Lou Zilings voice was low, hoarse, and gentle.Even if there were a hundred Wu Weis standing in front of me, I wouldnt be moved, let alone one Wu Wei. I already have you, and my heart cant hold anyone else.
He saw that Jing Xi was still sad, so he lifted her chin and gently pressed it against her.Ive never touched her. I already felt that something was wrong when she asked me to go to the hotel that day, so I got one of my men to pretend to be me to deal with her.
You see, I told you I didnt agree to this kind of thing back then, but you still threw a tantrum at me. I knew that in the end, the one who would be jealous would definitely be you, and the one who would suffer would be me. When have I ever used you to seduce other men? I cant bear to, Xixi!
Jing Xi burst into tears.I know I was wrong, I wont do it again! Youre not allowed to like her, I hate that woman!
Lou Ziling gently wiped her tears away. However, she started to cry more and more. He kissed her eyes and said,I hate that woman too. She made you cry. Ill teach her a lesson when Im discharged from the hospital!
At this moment, not only did he hate Wu Wei, but he also hated Ji moxuan. He wanted to teach Ji moxuan a lesson as well!
Ji moxuan had finally gotten out of the sea of suffering. He had gone back and started to study business management seriously, but he had no idea that it was Jing Xi who had helped him!
The one who was trapped in the sea of suffering was Lou Ziling!
Lou Ziling coaxed Jing Xi for a while before she finally broke into a smile.If you keep crying, Pan Yans Hospital is going to be flooded. Hell be crying to me when that happens. This hospital is his life.
Jing Xi wiped away her tears in embarrassment and asked,When did you get to know this person? Howe I dont know anything about it? did you get to know other women behind my back?
Theres no such thing. I cant even afford to marry you alone. I cant afford to support other women either! I was injured when I first came here, and he was the one who treated me. Later, I helped him snatch this hospital from his stepmother, so were pretty close.
Hes very fierce to me!
Oh, then you can do whatever you want to him. Anyway, his medical skills are not bad. It shouldnt matter if he breaks an arm or a leg.
Pan Yan pushed the door open with a dark face.Im not a lizard. I cant grow a broken tail back! Do you two even have a conscience? I took such a huge risk to take you in, and you want to break my arms and legs?
Chapter 1606

Trantor: 549690339
Pan Yan had been living in the hands of his stepmother since he was a child. He had been tortured and had a bad temper. He was not afraid of death. Other than Lou Ziling, he was not nice to anyone else.
Jing Xi had evenined about him in front of Lou Ziling. Pan Yan didnt think that she was being coquettish. He only thought that Jing Xi was as unlikable as his half-sister.
Young master Li, I advise you not to marry this kind of woman. There are many gentle and kind girls in the world. With your current status, you can choose any one you want! If you really can t, I also know a lot of good girls. I can introduce them to you!
Youre a doctor, and youre also a matchmaker?Jing Xi was displeased. If you dare to introduce girls to him, Ill tear down your hospital!
Pan Yan sneered,family Jing is a big family. Of course, a small hospital like mine cant afford to offend you. Just tear it down, and its best if you kill me as well. The next time something happens to your fianc, he can report directly to the King of Hell, and theres no need to find a doctor!
Jing Xi almost died of anger. How could this man have such a sharp tongue?
He clearly knew her identity, but he still didnt give in!
Lou Ziling sat on the bed with a headache.
Jing Xi was not easy to bully, and neither was Pan Yan. He had often angered his scheming stepmother, so he had long trained his eloquence.
It was clearly just a joke just now, why did it be more and more stiff?
Pan Yan, dont say anymore!
Lou Ziling shouted as he looked at Pan Yan coldly. Pan Yan calmed down and walked over to Lou Ziling to check his wound.
As soon as he pulled Lou Zilings clothes open, he saw that the wound on his shoulder was red.
Pan Yan frowned,youve been shot in the shoulder twice. Why dont you just lie down? If this shoulder doesnt recover, your right arm wont be able to use any strength at all in the future. Itll be equivalent to being crippled!
He nced at Jing Xi on the bed and said in a cold tone,Do you know how to take care of people? If you don t, call the nurse!
Jing Xi was so angry that she wanted to hit someone!
But she suppressed her anger.Its my mistake. Ill definitely take better care of him than the nurses. Please help him with his wound first.
Pan Yan was a little surprised. He had thought that Jing Xi would jump up and scold him.
It turned out that he could also be mistaken?
It has nothing to do with Xixi. I got up and tore the wound myself.
Lou Ziling exined on Jing Xis behalf, but Pan Yan continued,You dont have to exin anything. She didnt take good care of you. Ill find two experienced nurses for you to take care of your meals and daily life.
No need, Lou Ziling refused.
Pan Yan acted as if he didnt hear her. He lowered his head and re-bandaged Lou Zilings wound. Dont go anywhere for the next two days. You guys caused too much trouble before. The police are investigating everywhere. Theyve alreadye to the hospital to ask if theyve taken in any patients who were shot.
Okay, I know! Lou Ziling nodded.
Pan Yan left quickly, not even looking at Jing Xi.
Lou Ziling held Jing Xis hand after he left and said in a low voice,Dont mind him. Hes just like that. Hes never nice to anyone. Hes not targeting you.
Jing Xi wasnt sure if Pan Yan was targeting her, but she had already calmed down.
He saved you. Your men were also treated here. No matter how bad his words are, Im still grateful to him.
Jing Xi was not an ungrateful person. Although Pan Yan had a sharp tongue, he was not careless in his actions. He was always thinking for Lou Ziling.
It was a good thing for Lou Ziling to have such a friend.
Lou Ziling looked at Jing Xi quietly. He suddenly felt that Jing Xi was a little different.
He seemed to have grown up and matured.
If it was in the past, she wouldnt have allowed others to say such things about her and would have dealt with Pan Yan a long time ago.
Pan Yan was a troublemaker, and sometimes even he couldnt do anything about him, but Jing Xi could endure it.
Xixi, if youre not happy, just say it. You dont have to hold back. Although Pan Yan is important to me, hes definitely not as important as you. If you dont like him, you can take care of him.
Lou Zilings tone was a little teasing, trying to make Jing Xi happy.
Jing Xi went up to him and kissed his chin, which had already grown stubble. She whispered,Im also a reasonable person. If what he says makes sense, I can also listen. It wont be toote for me to deal with him after he deliberately causes trouble.
Right now, our opponent is not Pan Yan, but Li Jing. If she takes the manor back, well have no ce to live!
Lou Ziling smiled faintly,who said she snatched it back? The manor is already under my name! Theres also thepany and other assets, most of which are now under my name.
What? Jing Xi was surprised.Why would she give it to you?
We had an agreement that she would hand over all her assets to me and I would let her go. She would live abroad and nevere back.
Lou Ziling recalled the agreement and her eyes turned cold.I didnt expect her to just say it. She didnt n to leave at all. She even controlled Wu Wei in her hands. There are also her people among my men, otherwise, she wouldnt have been able to counterattack sessfully.
He had been too careless. He had thought that Li Jings willpower would have copsed after being tortured for so long. He didnt expect her to still be so strong and to slowly umte her strength. She had even bribed many of the people who were watching her.
Lou Ziling was not a bloodthirsty person. He had taken most of the Li familys assets and wanted to keep his promise to let Li Jing live.
Now it seemed that he should not be soft-hearted.
When cutting grass, one must remove the roots!
If Li Jing was allowed to live, she didnt know how much more trouble she would cause!
Lou Ziling had been in the hospital for three days, but it did not stop him from giving orders and controlling the situation.
Thepany was still operating as usual. Even if he was injured and could not go out, Jing Xi could still help him deal with thepany affairs.
The only problem was that the two nurses that Pan Yan had found for him were not only pretty and gentle, but they also had to pull his clothes off, wipe his body, change his dressing, and even follow him to the bathroom, saying that they could help him take off his pants if he was disabled!
This afternoon, two young and beautiful nurses came to deliver lunch again.
Jing Xi sat on the side and watched coldly as the two girls fought to feed Lou Ziling.
She thought that if Lou Ziling dared to let them feed her, she would throw all three of them out of the window!
How could Lou Ziling allow another woman to feed her in front of Jing Xi?
Pan Yan was trying to kill him!
Jing Xi had been talking to him in a strange tone for the past two days. She was now staring at the two nurses as if she was going to eat them up.
Lou Ziling coldly chased the two nurses out.Get out!

Chapter 1607: Will definitely win
Trantor: 549690339
The nurse, little Tao, was on the verge of tears. Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears of grievance.Mr. Lou, did we not take good care of you? If you kick us out, the head nurse will definitely scold us again. Just have a bite, youve been starving for the past few days. How can your body take it if you go on like this?
Mr. Lou, youre afraid that your girlfriend will be jealous, right? the nurse, little you, said softly. Dont get the wrong idea. Little Tao and I are both doctors, and we just take care of you like a patient. We dont have any other thoughts. Its just a meal. Your girlfriend isnt that petty to care about this.
The two of them did not know Lou Ziling and Jing Xis identities. Lou Ziling had used his real name when he was hospitalized. The two nurses only knew that his surname was Lou and did not know anything else.
Mr. Lou, have some soup to warm your stomach.
Mr. Lou, have some pigeon meat. Its good for healing.
Mr. Lou, this radish is very sweet and crunchy. Try it.
Lou Ziling scolded them with a cold face and chased them out angrily. However, the two of them pretended not to hear her and continued to feed her gently.
Seeing that Jing Xis face was getting worse and worse, Lou Ziling finally couldnt bear it anymore. She got out of bed, grabbed little Taos cor, and dragged her out of the ward. Then, she grabbed little you and threw her out too.
He mmed the door shut and locked it from the inside. Then he walked to Jing Xi and said awkwardly,Xixi, theyve left. Lets eat!
Lou Ziling, youre so lucky with women! Jing Xi raised her head and red at Lou Ziling.Youre hugging two women!
When did I hug you?
Lou Ziling felt helpless. He took Jing Xis hand and sat on the bed with her.This must be Pan Yans doing! Ill never let those two nurses in again!
Jing Xis heart was filled with jealousy. Pan Yans tricks were real, but the two nurses feelings for Lou Ziling were not fake.
She knew that Lou Ziling was handsome and easily liked by girls. When they were in A city, his ex-girlfriends were all attracted to his face. However, she did not expect that her real fiance would be here. Those two nurses even dared to lean on Him so brazenly!
What would happen if this continued?
Lou Ziling was so popr that there would be a bunch of women throwing themselves at him wherever he went. She had to follow him all the time!
Every time she thought of this, Jing Xi would be very annoyed.
How could she be so confident before? she even pushed Lou Ziling to Wu Wei so that he could chat and eat with Wu Wei. Was she out of her mind?
She couldnt stay in the hospital any longer. Lou Ziling was much better now. She could take care of him at home!
Jing Xi shook off Lou Zilings hand and got up to pack her things.
Lou Ziling was shocked. She thought that she was angry and wanted to leave by herself. She hurriedly hugged her from behind.Silly girl, what are you doing? Leaving? Leaving me? I wont allow it! First, I didnt touch them, and second, I wasnt moved by them. Your jealousy is so unreasonable, Im so wronged!
Yes, you wont be moved for a day or two, but if these two beauties were to appear in front of you every day and serve you gently like water, who knows if youll be moved? Thats why Im not staying in this hospital anymore. Im going home!
Lou Ziling heaved a sigh of relief. So she didnt want to leave him. That was good.
He lowered his head and kissed Jing Xis round earlobe.Alright, Ill listen to you. I wont stay here anymore. But I have to tell you, even if those two nurses were to hang around me for a year, I still wouldnt like them.
Jing Xi said they were beautiful, but Lou Ziling didnt think they were good-looking at all.
The only real beauty was Jing Xi.
She was actually jealous of the two nurses. The two nursesbined were not as important as a single strand of her hair.
However, Lou Ziling was happy that Jing Xi was jealous. She was worried about him and cared about him. That was good.
He really couldnt stand Jing Xi seducing Wu Wei for someone else.
Once was enough. If there was a second time, he would really be angry.
When Pan Yan heard that Lou Ziling was going to be discharged from the hospital, he rushed into his Ward in anger. Youre leaving before youve recovered?
Lou Ziling walked over and patted his shoulder.Its fine. Im almost done. I still have a lot of things to deal with. Its not convenient to be here.
Pan Yans eyes were a little red.My ce is like your home. You even helped me get the hospital back. How is it inconvenient? Just say the word, and Ill listen to you from top to bottom!
Lou Ziling had worked hard for so many years and had only met one person who was so loyal to him. He had no scruples about anything.
He was a little touched. He had wanted to scold Pan Yan because of the two nurses, but now he couldnt say it.
Lou Ziling smiled.I need to go back and get my things. When everything is settled, Ill invite you to the manor to y!
Pan Yan didnt want Lou Ziling to leave. He thought it must be Jing Xi making a scene again. He red at her and turned to leave.
Jing Xi red back at him. She hadnt even settled the score with Pan Yan yet, and he still dared to re at her!
He was so bold as to push women to Lou Ziling. Did he think she was easy to bully?
What Pan Yan needed was a powerful girlfriend. If he had a woman to take care of him, he wouldnt have the time to care about other peoples Affairs.
When he tried to push a woman to Lou Ziling, Jing Xi immediately decided to push a woman to Pan Yan as well!
Outside the hospital, a car was already waiting.
The driver sent them back to the Li familys Manor. Lou Zilings men had already sneaked in and were waiting for his order.
Xixi, wait for me in the car. Ill go in first. You cane in after Im done.
Jing Xi was worried and wanted to follow him in, but Lou Ziling was very firm.You will distract me if you follow me in. Be good and stay outside. No matter what happens inside, donte in. Ive left ten people for you to protect you.
Jing Xi almost burst into tears when she heard him say that.Were not going in. We dont want this lousy Manor anymore!
Lou Ziling lowered her head and kissed Jing Xi. Her voice was extremely gentle. Dont worry, Im just being cautious. Ive already seen through Li Jings strength, and Im sure Ill win. I didnt go in for this Manor, but to make Li Jing disappear from the world!
Jing Xi was still feeling uneasy, but Lou Ziling had already let go of her and walked into the gloomy forest.
Li Jing received news from her subordinates in the manor that Lou Ziling and Jing Xi had arrived. A sinister smile appeared on her face.Kill Lou Ziling, and Jing Xi wants her alive! We can give Lou Ziling a quick death, but we cant let Jing Xi die so easily!
Chapter 1608
Chapter 1608: Winner takes it all and loser takes it all
Trantor: 549690339
However, Li Jing quickly realized that her line of defense was quickly falling apart.
Before she could think of how to torture Jing Xi after she caught her, Lou Ziling had already appeared in front of her with his men.
When did he be so powerful?
Li Jing was still in shock when she felt a sudden pain in her chest and her consciousness fell into darkness.
Lou Ziling came out to pick Jing Xi up after a short wait.
The people in charge of her safety had dealt with the small fries sent by Li Zhi. Jing Xi wanted to do something, but Lou Zilings men were too capable and won too quickly. She had nothing to do.
When she saw Lou Ziling, Jing Xi looked at him carefully.Are you hurt?
Lou Ziling shook her head.No, Im fine. Everything is within my expectations. Lets go. This Manor will be ours from now on!
Jing Xi was at a loss for words. Lou Ziling had said it so easily, but it had not been easy to get the manor.
He was using his life topete with Li Jing.
Wheres Li Jing?
Shes dead. From now on, theres no more Li Jing,
Jing Xi was a little shocked and in disbelief.
Li Jings self-preservation methods were outrageous. She had always felt that Li Jing would live on unless she wanted to die.
She was really Dead?
Doesnt she still have a lot of assets? You dont want it?
Lou Ziling nodded heavily. Ive already gotten two-thirds of it, so I dont really need the remaining one-third!
He didnt want Jing Xi to be in danger all the time!
It was enough to get these assets. He was not greedy.
Okay, I dont want it anymore! Jing Xi was very happy.
She had been worried that Lou Ziling was too ambitious and wanted to take all the assets of the Li family. But now it seemed that he had a sense of propriety and didnt care too much about money. This was good.
He was good at strategizing and business, so these assets would grow rapidly. By using the Li familyswork, it would not be a problem to surpass the original Li family.
There was a faint smell of blood in the manor. Jing Xi didnt know how many people had died in the fight, but as long as Lou Ziling was fine, she wouldnt panic even if the world copsed.
It was raining heavily that night. Jing Xi stood by the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor and looked at the rain outside. She felt relieved.
Fortunately, it rained a lot here, and the bloody smell in the manor was washed away by the rain very quickly.
But Jing Xi now deeply understood why she had felt so gloomy the first time she hade to the Li family manor.
There were indeed countless white bones buried under the tall pine trees.
Every time the manor changed hands, it was a bloodbath. The survivors would be famous and obtain countless wealth, while the losers would be buried deep underground forever, never to see the light of day.
Those with a weaker mentality would not dare to live in this magnificent Manor.
It was all thanks to the fact that she had lived in an extraordinary world since she was young. Death was the disappearance of life, and perhaps, it was the beginning of life.
Lou Ziling took a shower and hugged Jing Xi from behind. She was covered in steam.
Whats wrong? why do you look so serious?
Nothing, Im just a little emotional. Fortunately, we won. If we had lost, we would have been buried under the pine tree!
We wont lose.
Lou Zilings voice was calm, but it carried a kind of firm confidence.I have you. I cant afford to lose, so I must win.
Jing Xi chuckled. The more she had experienced, the more her heart had changed. Her former yfulness and naivety had disappeared.
She had never understood why Shangguan ning was so gentle and talkative while her father was so cold and indifferent. He had never had the desire to speak to outsiders.
It wasnt until today that she realized that maybe it was because Jing Yichen had been through so much that his heart had hardened and he had be indifferent to everything in the world.
Only the person he loved could affect his emotions.
Im so happy to have you! Jing Xi turned around and said softly.
When it came to other peoples Affairs, she just wanted to watch. Only when it came to Lou Zilings Affairs would she be serious.
She touched Lou Zilings shoulder, which had been shot, andined,Your wound hasnt healed yet, why are you taking a shower? Itll get infected if its soaked in water.
Its fine. I put on some waterproof gauze when I washed up. Pan Yan has already prepared it for me.
Oh, hes quite attentive!
You dont like him?
Of course! I wont hold a grudge against him for forcing you to have a nurse!
But, Im a person who repays evil with good. Im going to help him find a girlfriend! Jing Xi said with a smile.
Youre trying to find him a tigress, right?
Lou Zilingughed so hard that her chest was shaking.Thats probably very difficult. He has a bad temper and he especially hates women. Im afraid he doesnt like any of the women youve found.
Then Does he like men? Jing Xi asked.
Hahaha!
Lou Zilingughed out loud. If Pan Yan found out that Jing Xi thought he liked men, he would be angry again!
No, his sexual orientation is normal. Its a given that he likes women, but because of his stepmother, hes very hostile to women.
How old is he? Have you never been in love?
Hes twenty-five this year and has never been in love. As you can see, he has a bad temper, and no girl can stand him.
Jing Xi blinked. Was Pan Yan going to be single for the rest of his life?
Aiyo, thats not bad. Let him be single for the rest of his life! Im not going to help him find a girlfriend, in case he harms the girl!
Lou Ziling shook his head. Jing Xi had changed her mind so quickly. He really thought that Jing Xi was going to find Pan Yan a girlfriend!
The rainy night was suitable for lingering.
Lou Ziling took off the bath towel on her body, revealing her strong waist. She pressed Jing Xi against the wall and nibbled on her earlobe.
Jing Xi felt her body heat up as if it was on fire.
Lou Ziling hadnt touched her for a month. It wasnt that he didnt want to, but he had to deal with Wu Wei a few days ago. Her period took up four or five days, and then something happened. He was injured these days and was in the hospital. The conditions didnt allow him to.
Even now, Jing Xi was still worried about his wound.
Ziling, we cant do it now, she said in a delicate voice.Well wait for a few days until youre better.
Lou Zilings voice was low.I want you now. My injury is not a big deal. Just dont move.
As he spoke, his fingers had already unbuttoned Jing Xis shirt, revealing arge area of her chest.
He slowly kissed her. He was already very eager, but he was not in a hurry. He did his best to give Jing Xi a wonderful experience.
Ziling, hurry up! Jing Xi was a little anxious.

Lou Ziling smiled. He was very satisfied with Jing Xis reaction.
She had always told him to slow down, but now she finally knew to tell him to speed up.
Lou Ziling deliberately kissed her slowly. Her fingers slowly slid across her back, giving her a sense of numbness and electric current but not deep.
Jing Xi could not stand his teasing and took the initiative to kiss him.
Lou Ziling enjoyed her passionate kiss. She feltfortable and happy.
His self-control was getting stronger and stronger. If Jing Xi had taken the initiative before, he would have lost it long ago, but now he was doing it with ease.
So now, he would not hurt Jing Xi anymore. Every time they got together, Jing Xi would only feel endless happiness and never cry again.
After a long night, Jing Xi leaned into Lou Zilings arms. She didnt want to get out of bed even when the sun was high in the morning.
Lou Ziling pushed her hair behind her ear and kissed her gently.
Jing Xi opened her eyes and saidzily,They didnt use any birth control measures. What if Im pregnant?
If youre pregnant, just give birth to the child. Ill take care of you and the child.
Jing Xis eyes lit up again.Do you prefer a son or a daughter?
Its the same.
Lou Zilings voice was gentle.As long as its your child, its fine. I just dont want you to have a child so early. I feel that youre not grown up yet.
Maybe Ill grow up after I be a mother?
Thats possible,Lou Ziling chuckled.
Ill just let nature take its course, Jing Xi said with a smile.Ill give birth to the baby when Im pregnant.
She jumped up, put on her clothes, and walked to the window barefooted.The weather is so good today. The rain has stopped!
Lou Ziling also stood up and went into the bathroom with a smile.
He needed to quickly wash up and have breakfast before going to work.
He had only dealt with Li Jing the day before, and there was still a lot of work waiting for him today.
He and Jing Xi had been busy for more than a month before thepany stabilized again, and the assets that should have been taken back had been taken back.
The rest were fine, except for Wu Wei, who always ran to Lou Zilings office.
Ji moxuan had alreadypletely loathed her and refused to help her with anything. She just wanted to hug Lou Zilings thigh tightly.
Without Lou Zilings permission, Wu Wei couldnt enter his office. However, she knew Lou Zilings car, so she stood by his car and waited for him every day.
Lou Ziling sent her away, but she still showed up the next day.
Lou Ziling always came in a wheelchair. Even if Wu Wei was wearing high heels, his legs were more numb than his.
Young master Li, didnt you say that youd give me a status if I became your woman? Weve already You have to take responsibility!
Wu Weis words were the same every day. Sometimes her tone was tough, and sometimes she was pitiful. Even Lou Ziling admired her acting skills.
She must have been bribed by Li Zhi before. She must have received a huge sum of money to pester him and disturb his vision.
But now that Li Jing was dead, Wu Wei still came to bother her without caring about her face. Did she not know that Li Jing was dead?
Lou Zilings face was very ugly under the mask. If Jing Xi found out, he would have to sleep on the floor!
Get out of this city. If I see you again, youll be Li Jingspanion in the underworld!
Li Wei was stunned.Your sister Is dead? she asked.
Her beautiful face instantly turned pale. Thats impossible. She said that she would help me. She said that I should marry you and be the most respected youngdy in the Li family! You, you You killed your own sister?
Shemitted suicide, it has nothing to do with me!
Lou Zilings voice was indifferent. For the first time, she felt that a brainless woman was difficult to deal with.
If Wu Wei and Li Jing were as evil as each other, he wouldnt mind shooting Li Wei.
But she was not.
It wasmon for her to y tricks, but she had never killed anyone.
Lou Ziling wasnt a bloodthirsty person. Those who deserved to die had to die. He wouldnt kill those who didnt deserve to die.
This woman was originally Ji moxuan s, so why was he taking over now?
Lou Ziling was very annoyed. She coldly ordered her subordinates,Knock her out and send her to Ji moxuan in A city!
The next day, Ji moxuan received arge package. When he opened it, he saw the unconscious Wu Wei!
Although he hated Wu Wei, he couldnt just leave her in the lurch.
He asked his assistant to take Wu Wei to the hospital and soon got a piece of news: Wu Wei was pregnant.
The child was more than three months old, and during that time, Ji moxuan and Wu Wei had sex.
He wasnt sure if this was his child because Wu Wei had a rtionship with several men at the same time.
Wu Wei woke up in the hospital and insisted that the child was Li Xiao s.
Ji moxuan was not familiar with Li Xiao, so he called Jing Xi directly and told her about Wu Weis pregnancy.
Jing Xi was so angry that she almost dropped her phone.
She slept with Lou Ziling every day and didnt get pregnant, but Wu Wei got pregnant?
Only a ghost would believe that!
She gritted her teeth and said to Ji mo Xuan,You must take good care of this woman and let her give birth to the child! Id like to see whose child it is!
Although Ji moxuan had agreed to it over the phone, he still felt uneasy.
Li Xiao was disabled, how could he have a rtionship with Wu Wei?
If the child was not Li Xiaos but his, it would be toote to give birth!
It could be aborted after three months, but it would be a living life after birth!
While Ji moxuan was in a dilemma, Lou Ziling was not having a good time either.
Xixi, dont make a fuss. The child is definitely not mine. Can you let me go?
Jing Xi tied him up tightly and threw him on the bed. She sat on his waist angrily, holding a shining fruit knife in her hand.
You really didnt touch Wu Wei?
Lou Ziling was going crazy. He had been exining all night, but Jing Xi was still asking!
I really havent touched it!
Nonsense! I checked thepanys surveince video today. There was one time when she fell in front of you on purpose, and you reached out to help her! Which hand was it? Chop it!
Lou Ziling didnt know whether tough or cry.I didnt help her up. She wanted to fall on me. I couldnt avoid her in the wheelchair, so I pushed her away! If you cut off my hand, Ill hug you with my feet in the future?
Also, did anything happen between you two in the hotelst time?
Of course not! Didnt I say that I found someone to dress up as me to see Wu Wei?
Youre lying!
Ive also checked the hotels surveince video, Jing Xi sobbed.You went to the hotel that night! He even entered the room!
I was just putting on an act. It was easy to deceive Wu Wei, but I also had to deceive Li Jing, so I had to show my face! I only stayed in the room for five minutes and came out after I drugged them. What can I do in five minutes?
Lou Ziling looked at the jealous Jing Xi helplessly.It was your idea to let me approach Wu Wei. How can you me me now?
Chapter 1610
Chapter 1610: A jealous jar
Trantor: 549690339
You didnt touch her, so why did she say that the child was yours? Why didnt you say that it was Ji moxuan?
Lying on Lou Zilings body, Jing Xi bit and bit, leaving countless teeth marks on Lou Zilings chest.
Lou Ziling didnt feel much pain. He only felt a tingling sensation where Jing Xi had bitten him. If he wasnt tied up, he would have pressed Jing Xi under him and stripped her naked to punish her.
Wife, this is really an undeserved disaster! Wu Wei didnt like Ji moxuan, and because of your help, Ji moxuan was determined not to want her anymore. She ced all her hopes on me, so she framed me. Other people dont know my innocence, you have to believe me!
Lou Ziling wanted to wipe Jing Xis tears, but his hands were tied up and he couldnt move.
You see, what did I say back then? Its not worth it to put in effort for this kind of thing, and now Im right! Do I look like such a casual person? Which part of Wu Wei is better than you? Even if I wanted something new, I should at least find someone clean, right?
Jing Xis beautiful eyebrows were almost twisted together.You still want to y something new? Clean? Lou Ziling, do you still want to live?
No, no, I didnt mean it that way. I was just making an analogy!
So youre in a rtionship with me, and youre still thinking about those fresh goods outside!
Xixi, I was wrong, okay? Im very loyal, and Ive only liked you from the beginning to the end. When have I ever thought of other women? Let me go, youre binding me too tightly, my arm is about to break.
Lou Ziling felt that she had done nothing wrong. Why did she feel like she had made a huge mistake?
Jing Xi ignored him. She ran to the sofa in the living room and started crying.
Lou Ziling got up from the bed with difficulty and struggled to get rid of the rope.
He walked into the living room and looked at Jing Xi, who seemed to have been wronged. He was both distressed and angry.Do you believe in such little tricks to frame people? Is there any truth in Wu Weis mouth?
He sat down next to Jing Xi and held her in his arms. He gently wiped away her tears with his fingers. Dont cry. Your eyes are swollen from crying. You dont look good.
Yes! Jing Xi cried even harder.Im ugly, but Wu Wei is beautiful! Go and find her!
Lou Ziling pinched her face helplessly. Whatever he said now was wrong. He was just joking just now, but she took it seriously.
He got up and went to the bathroom. He wrung a towel, sat down next to Jing Xi, and gently wiped her face.
He wiped his face, kissed Jing Xi, and whispered,I love you. By the time he was done, he had already kissed Jing Xi dozens of times and said I love you dozens of times.
Fool, why do you only know how to be jealous? if youre so jealous, why did you force me to Wu Weis side? arent you digging a hole for yourself?
Jing Xi leaned into Lou Zilings arms, holding his waist and sticking to him tightly.
In fact, no matter how much he exined, it was not as touching and reassuring as his dozens of affectionate I love you words just now.
Lou Ziling rarely confessed his love like this. This was the first time he had said I love you so many times.
She knew that Lou Ziling loved her very much, but she was still afraid.
That day, when Li Jing rushed into the manor with her men and said that her Lou Ziling and Wu Wei had slept together, her heart had almost broken.
She couldnt ept the fact that Lou Ziling would touch any other woman.
She knew that she was too jealous now, but she couldnt help but feel ufortable and angry when she thought of Wu Wei.
Now, it was Wu Wei. Who knew if there would be Zhang Wei or Li Wei pouncing on Lou Ziling in the future?
Fortunately, the buildings Ling Chengtian was wearing a mask and sitting in a wheelchair. Others thought that he had disfigured his face and disabled his legs, which dispelled some peoples thoughts.
If Lou Ziling went to thepany with his original appearance, many women would fall in love with him!
From now on, you have to wear a mask and sit in a wheelchair when you go to work. No one is allowed to know your true appearance!
Jing Xi looked up at him with her red eyes and said seriously.
Lou Ziling nodded.Dont worry. There wont be anything like Wu Wei again. A mask and a wheelchair are my standard. I know how to use them.
Change your female assistant!
My female assistant is almost 40 years old this year. Shes already a mother of two. I cant possibly be that thirsty, right?
No, as long as its a woman, it must be changed! Although your female assistant is old, shes very beautiful!
Lou Ziling wanted tough. His assistant was a chubby middle-aged woman. She had dark skin and a loud voice. However, she was efficient and efficient. That was why she became his assistant.
This assistants facial features were decent, but definitely not beautiful!
Okay, Ill transfer her tomorrow. You can help me pick a new assistant. Is that okay?
That was all Jing Xi could think about at the moment. She had been too weak in this area before. Now she knew that Lou Ziling had so many loopholes to exploit!
She had to cover up all the loopholes!
Lou Ziling wasnt interested in women, but she couldnt resist women like Wu Wei. If Lou Ziling was drugged and really had a child, she would have no ce to cry!
Jing Xi quieted down and stopped making a fuss. Lou Ziling heaved a sigh of relief. She carried her back to the bedroom and threw her on the bed.
Alright, youre done with your tantrum and your anger has been vented. Now, its my turn to punish you!
He pressed Jing Xi down on the bed and let her lie on her stomach. He raised his hand and smacked her perky butt.
The crisp sound echoed in the bedroom, and Jing Xi was stunned.
It hurt a little. Jing Xi wanted to cover her little butt, but Lou Ziling held both of her hands and refused to let her.
You actually dared to tie me up just now. Ill give you a p for this!
Pa! Lou Ziling patted Jing Xis firm butt again.
He bit me so many times that I dont even know how many times. Ill give him a p too. Hes using me of touching another woman. Ill give him a p!
Pa, PA. Lou Ziling hit him twice again.
Jing Xi was angry and embarrassed. She wanted to turn over, but she felt a cold sensation on her lower body. Lou Ziling had taken off her shorts!
Her perky butt waspletely exposed to the air!
Then, Lou Ziling took a bite.
A numb feeling spread from her butt to her whole body, and Jing Xi immediately let out a low cry.Lou Ziling, let me go! He shouted.
Lou Ziling turned a deaf ear and bit her twice more. Hearing her low groan, she pressed herself on her and whispered in Jing Xis ear,Is it because I didnt satisfy you these few days that you still have the energy to be jealous? Ive always been reluctant to let you tire yourself out, but it seems that youve misunderstood me. Today, youre not allowed to beg for mercy. I want you to know how hard Ive been holding back!

Jing Xis face was red. She was lying on the bed. Lou Zilings whole body was on top of her. His strong chest was against her bare back. She could even feel his strong heartbeat.
Xixi, are youfortable?
Lou Zilings deep voice rang in Jing Xis ears. It was so ambiguous that she wanted to bury herself in the quilt.
She turned around and saw Lou Zilings deep eyes.
Without thinking, she stuck out her tongue and licked Lou Zilings lips.
Lou Ziling was obviously stunned for a moment. Then, she pressed her down and kissed her wildly.
*******
Jing Xi! Jing Xi called out softly. To Lou Ziling, her voice was like the strongest medicine. He almost wanted to rub Jing Xi into his body and never separate from her again.
A momentter, Jing Xi was sent to the clouds.
She bit her lips tightly, afraid that she would make an embarrassing sound.
Lou Ziling finally showed her kindness and turned her over. The two of them faced each other. Lou Zilings deep voice came again. Dont bite me. Weve just started. If you keep biting like this, youll break it soon. Just bite me, be good
Jing Xi was curled up in his arms. Before she could recover from the previous wave of happiness, the next wave began.
She didnt know how many ups and downs she had done that night.
It was as if she had fallen into the deep sea and was out of breath from Lou Zilings kiss.
The waves were getting higher and stronger. Jing Xi bit Lou Zilings shoulder and was so immersed that she didnt know what day it was.
In the end, she could only keep begging for mercy. However, Lou Ziling was provoked by her today and wanted her fiercely.
No Im sweating all over. Take a shower, go take a shower
Lou Ziling picked her up and strode into the bathroom.
Jing Xi had no energy to take a bath. She leaned on Lou Ziling the whole time and let Lou Ziling help her.
However, after a short while, Lou Ziling started to act up again. He pushed Jing Xi against the wall and went deeper into the bathroom.
Xixi, kiss me!
Jing Xi was already a little dizzy from his intense movements. She obediently moved closer and kissed Lou Ziling gently.
After taking a shower for more than an hour, Lou Ziling helped Jing Xi wash off the bubbles in the shower gel. He wrapped her in arge bath towel and carried her back to the bedroom.
Lying on the soft andfortable bed, Jing Xi fell asleep almost instantly.
However, her hands were still firmly wrapped around Lou Zilings neck. She nestled in his arms and refused to separate from him.
When Jing Xi woke up the next morning, they were still in the same intimate position.
She wanted to move, but the moment she moved, her entire body felt sore and weak. She found it difficult to even get out of bed!
However, when she turned to look at Lou Ziling, she saw that he was in high spirits. There was a faint smile on his handsome face. He seemed to be very satisfied.
Jing Xi looked up and bit his chin.Scoundrel, did you go crazyst night? My whole body hurts!
Lou Ziling chuckled.Yes, youve driven me crazy. If you doubt me again, Ill punish you every day. When youre too tired to get out of bed, you wont doubt me anymore.
Jing Xi raised her hand to hit him, but she did not have the strength to hit him. Her fistnded on Lou Zilings body, but it was no different from scratching an itch for him.
She pouted her lips in anger and snorted, but only after she snorted did she realize that her voice did not sound angry at all. Instead, it sounded like she was acting coquettishly.
Lou Ziling thought that Jing Xi was extremely cute like a kitten without ws. She was so gentle that he could bully her as he pleased.
So, early in the morning, Lou Ziling couldnt help but press Jing Xi under her body and bully her again.
Jing Xis body went soft. She gritted her teeth and protested,The book said that too many times is bad for the body! For the sake of your health, once a month is enough!
Which book said that? Ill go burn it!
Lou Ziling didnt think that it was harmful. He felt that he was in a very good state!
If he could only touch Jing Xi once a month, that would be harmful! He would definitely suffer from internal injuries!
Lou Ziling got out of bed feeling refreshed. He tidied himself up and took Jing Xis clothes. He came over and helped her put them on.
When did you buy this? I think its a little too small. Ill go with you to the mall this weekend and buy a new one.
Didnt you wear this dress once? No, Ill buy you a new one!
These slippers are fromst year. This one doesnt look good. Ill buy you a few nice pairster!
It was rare for Lou Ziling to be so long-winded. He felt that no clothes or shoes could match Jing Xis looks. He wanted to buy her the best.
Jing Xi had been a little resentful of him for taking things without restraint, but seeing him pampering her all the time, even thest bit of resentment disappeared.
Lou Ziling half-hugged her and took her to the dining room for breakfast. She finally didnt mind Wu Weis matter.
She was very proud. Other than her, Lou Ziling would not pamper any other woman like this!
Anyway, it was definitely not Lou Zilings child, so whoever he wanted it to be, he would let Wu Wei give birth to it.
Jing Xi and Lou Ziling didnt care if Wu Wei would give birth to the child, but Ji moxuan cared very much.
He could tell from Jing Xis attitude that Wu Weis child must have nothing to do with the Li family. If the child were really Li Xiao s, Jing Xi would not have been able to sit still and be so calm.
If Wu Weis child was his, once it was born, his situation would immediately be very awkward! Moreover, with Wu Weis character, he would definitely use the child to ask for arge amount of alimony from the Ji family.
Ji Bo would be furious!
However, what Ji moxuan did not know was that his father, Ji Bo, was already furious.
The consequence of Ji Bos anger was that Wu Wei was forced to have an abortion the next day, and all of Ji moxuans financial sources were cut off. He was forbidden from dating for five years. He could only date when he was qualified to be the president of family Jis enterprise.
Li Wei was lying in the hospital alone. After her miscarriage, her face was sallow and she looked a little dazed.
In fact, she didnt know who the child belonged to. She had never thought of giving birth to the child.
They would definitely have to do a DNA test when they were born and the results would definitely show that they were not Li Xiao s.
This child was already three months old. Three months ago, she was not only with Ji moxuan, but she was with some other messy men.
Who knew whose child it was?
However, she didnt expect that she would be forced to have an abortion so soon.
She didnt even have the right to speak!
It was easy for a powerful family to deal with her!
She wanted to climb up until no one dared to touch her!

Chapter 1612: A person more beautiful than Jade

On the weekend, Lou Ziling took Jing Xi out shopping.
As long as Jing Xi took a look, he would buy it all.
There were too many things, so he called his men to work for Jing Xi.
Jing Xi rarely went shopping. Most of the time, she would ask someone to buy her whatever she wanted.
That was why she was so excited to go shopping with Lou Ziling.
The mall had a total of eight floors, and the top floor was a cinema.
The things they had bought were sent home first. Jing Xi held Lou Zilings arm, bought two movie tickets, and went in to watch the movie.
This was the first time the two of them were watching a movie together.
The movie was very ordinary, but Jing Xi still felt that it was very romantic.
Lou Zilings mind was not on the movie at all. He kept holding Jing Xis waist, touching her hair, and pinching her fingers. In the movie, when the male and female protagonists kissed, he would also kiss Jing Xi.
After the movie ended, the two of them had supper and went out for a walk.
Before this, Jing Xi had liked to take a walk in the dense forest of the manor, but after she found out that there were countless bones buried there, she no longer wanted to take a walk.
Sigh, theres nothing good about the Li familys Manor. Other than being a little bigger and older, theres nothing good about it. How about we buy a house in the suburbs with good scenery?
Lou Ziling always had the same idea. He didnt want to buy a big vi. He just wanted a small vi simr to the one in A city.
The most important thing was that the scenery had to be good.
He wanted to be able to see the sea and sunrise.
Ive picked a few recently. Ill take you to see them one day. Well buy whichever you like. Well decorate the new house ording to your style.
When the two of them returned home, it was already past Teno clock at night.
Jing Xi took a shower and was about to go to bed when she suddenly remembered that she had picked out a small gift for Lou Ziling.
She squatted in front of the shopping bags of various sizes in the living room and rummaged through them.
What are you looking for? Lou Ziling walked over.
I bought you a small gift today. Where did it go?
Lou Ziling suddenly understood.So you bought that for me. I thought you bought it for yourself. I put it in my bag and forgot to take it out!
Jing Xi stood up and went to the bedroom. She opened Lou Zilings ck handbag and rummaged through it.
She quickly found a beautifully wrapped gift box. But other than that, she also found a jade pendant in Lou Zilings bag.
It was the Jade Guanyin that she had once given Lou Ziling but had disappearedter on. It was the Jade Guanyin that had a rough carving and was made of fine jade.
Jing Xi took two things and ran to Lou Ziling. She looked at him in surprise.Why is this piece of Jade Guanyin with you?
Lou Ziling smiled and said,I got someone to steal it from you. This is the only thing youve given me. I dont think Ill be able to see you again in the future, so I have to keep the Jade by my side.
Jing Xis eyes slowly turned red.
She buried her face in Lou Zilings arms and said in a low voice,Silly girl, you liked me back then, but you still wanted to leave me. Whats the use of a piece of Jade? If you keep me by your side, youll have as many jade pieces as you want.
This is different. The Jade was personally carved by you, and Ive been carrying it around with me for a long time. Im not used to it being taken away by you, but I feel much better after I stole it back. When I hold the Jade in my hand, I feel closer to you.
Jing Xi unwrapped the gift she had bought and took out a diamond tie clip.
Lou Ziling was wearing a casual outfit today. Jing Xi clipped his tie to his cor.This is for you. You can use it at work tomorrow. Ill give you a present every year from now on, so that piece of Jade wont be the only one!
Today, she realized that she had never given Lou Ziling anything that could be used as a memento. That piece of Jade was like a treasure to him and he always carried it around with him. It was clear that she was still very important to him.
Lou Ziling gave her many things, including rings, nes, watches, and many more.
Lou Ziling sensed that Jing Xi was touched. He picked her up and carried her into the bedroom.Even you are mine now, so it doesnt matter if I give it to you or not.
He used to like touching that piece of Jade because he couldnt touch Jing Xi.
No Jade couldpare to Jing Xi now!
He took his time to strip Jing Xi naked and looked at her fair skin under the light. His eyes were deep and his voice was low and hoarse.I think youre much more attractive than that piece of Jade!
Even though she was already close enough to Lou Ziling, Jing Xi still felt embarrassed to be naked in front of him. Blushing, she pulled the nket over herself and stared at Lou Ziling as if she was silently inviting him.
Lou Ziling turned off the main light, leaving only a dim floor light on. The atmosphere in the bedroom suddenly became ambiguous.
When the lights were too bright, Jing Xi could not let go and was always shy.
She was only bold when the lights were dim. Sometimes, when she was bullied by Lou Ziling, she would take the initiative and ride on Lou Zilings body, pressing him down and not letting him move.
It was another night of passion. When Jing Xi woke up the next day, it was already noon.
It was not a good thing for a man to be too strong. She already had good physical strength, but she could not bear Lou Zilings pressure.
Time always flew when one was happy. Summer passed in the blink of an eye and autumn arrived, but W city was still warm.
Lou Ziling took Jing Xi on a flight to the United States.
Now that everything was stable and Li Jing was no longer around, it was useless for others to suspect Lou Zilings identity.
He could finally take Jing Xi home.
They were about to get married, but he had yet to bring Jing Xi to meet his parents.
Lou Ziling didnt know if he would be popr, but he was sure that Jing Xi would be warmly received by her parents.
She was more like Lou Mingyangs biological daughter than he was.
When they got off the ne, the person who came to pick them up was Luo Feiyang.
His face was no longer as arrogant and domineering as before. He had be a lot calmer, but his expression was not very good.
Did someone offend you? Jing Xi asked. It seems like youre the one who provokes others here. No one dares to provoke you, right?
Luo Feiyang shook his head and looked at Jing Xi holding Lou Zilings arm. They looked so loving to each other. His frown deepened.My family doesnt agree to my marriage with Ruyi. Do you still remember that pink diamond ring? The matter of Ruyi stealing the ring has been dug out by my friends.
What? Jing Xis eyes widened.Do you still think Ruyi stole the ring?
Of course not. I know her. She would never steal. My house is in a mess now, and there are even people who are saying that my sister-inws child is not my brother s.
What did you say? Lou Zilings face turned cold.
Dont be angry. The child is definitely my brother S. He looks so much like my brother. Theres no need to do a paternity test. Someone is behind this. My brother and I have been looking for this person.
Chapter 1613
Chapter 1613: Rumors
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang didnt know that the Luo family had already done a DNA test on the day Lou ruofei gave birth.
It wasnt that they suspected Lou ruofei, but the Luo family had taken over both the underworld and the government. They had offended many people, so they were worried that someone would deliberately steal the child of the Luo family and rece him.
Hence, even if the Luo family had heard all the rumors, there was no need for them to do a DNA test.
I suspect that the person who framed Ruyi for stealing the ring back then is the same person who is framing my sister-inw now.
The ring was now in tan Ruyis hands. She had always thought that it was proof of her love for Luo Feiyang. If it werent for the ring, she might not even have said a word to Luo Feiyang.
Luo Feiyang also felt that the meaning was special. He had long suspected that someone was targeting the Lou family. Otherwise, they would not have framed tan Ruyi, who was only a teenager back then.
Its been a few years, why are you bringing this up again?
Jing Xi frowned, her eyes full of doubt.Didnt you say that the people who saw Ruyi steal your ring were all your friends? Find them and ask them again in detail. There must be something wrong with these people!
Ive asked. Its the same as what he said back then.
Luo Feiyang felt a little uneasy. Her family felt that tan Ruyis family was too poor. Coupled with her reputation as a thief, they didnt agree to them being together.
When Luo Feifei wanted to marry Lou ruofei, there was almost no resistance. Luo Feiyang thought that he would also get the support of his family if he wanted to marry his sister-inws cousin.
Unfortunately, he had forgotten that tan Ruyis situation waspletely different from Lou ruofei s.
Although the Lou family wasnt the top family in the past, they were quite famous in A city with the Jing familys support. The family had a lot of assets and Lou Mingyang had a lot of resources in his hands. In addition, Lou ruofei had an outstanding younger brother. The marriage between the two families was good for both sides.
Moreover, Lou Mingyang and Luo feicuis father, Luo gang, were close friends. Lou ruofei was a typicaldy from a big family. Her style of conversation was extraordinary. Luo gang and his wife were satisfied with this daughter-inw.
Tan Ruyis family background was far from Lou ruofei s. She only had her mother to depend on. If Luo Feiyang married her, he wouldnt get any help. Instead, he would have to help the mother and daughter in every way.
The first daughter-inw that Luo Feiyangs parents had set their eyes on was Jing Xi.
However, Luo Feiyang would never say that out loud.
He finally understood why Lou Ziling refused to get close to Jing Xi even though he liked her. It was not a good thing to be in love when the gap between two people was too big.
Luo Feiyang was silent all the way. He sent Lou Ziling and Jing Xi to the Lou familys Vi and didnt even want to go home. He just stayed in the Lou familys house and refused to leave.
Lou Mingyang couldnt care less about him. He and his wife were so happy to see Jing Xi that they took out the countless gifts they had prepared and gave them to Jing Xi.
Jing Xi had thought that the gift she had brought for her parents was already very expensive, but she didnt expect that the gifts they had given her were even more expensive. They even included priceless ancient paintings and ancient jade.
Tan Zhen cried andughed at the same time. She had not seen her son in a long time. Now that her son had brought back a daughter-inw from a prominent family, she was so happy that she could not speak.
At noon, Lou ruofei and Luo feicui also returned with their son.
Lou ruofeis son, Luo Hui, was already three years old. He was smart, lively, and active. He had always known that he had an uncle, but today was his first time seeing him.
However, he was not interested in his cold uncle, Lou Ziling. He liked Jing Xi very much. He kept calling her aunt sweetly and soon got a lot of gifts from Jing Xi.
Aunty, youre so beautiful! Even the little helper isnt as pretty as you!
Whos Xiao Tong? Jing Xi asked with a smile.
Oh, its a little sister. Shes a year younger than me. I wanted her to be my wife, but Ive decided not to want her anymore!
Luo Huis eyes were spinning.Auntie, dont marry my uncle. When I grow up, Ill marry you!
Lou Ziling red at his nephew who wanted to snatch his wife away from him. The others were amused by his childish words.
Even Luo Feiyang, who was in a bad mood,ughed. He liked children more and more, and he really wanted to have one with tan Ruyi.
Unfortunately, even his brother, Luo feilie, did not support him being with tan Ruyi.
Lou ruofei also didnt support it.
However, it was not that she felt that her cousin was not good enough for Luo Feiyang. She just felt that the life of a rich family was not suitable for tan Ruyi. She was worried that tan Ruyi was too innocent and would not be able to survive in theplicated life in the future.
After she married here, she had also adapted to it for a long time. At first, she missed home so much that she even felt that the food at the Luo family was not as good as tan Zhen s.
Unless Luo Feiyang could amodate tan Ruyi in every way and shield her from all the storms from the outside world, just some rumors and nders could kill people without a trace.
The recent rumors about her son had already affected Lou ruofeis normal life.
In order to prove that the child was Luo feichuo s, she had already suggested several times for her inws to bring Luo Hui for a DNA test.
She wasnt afraid of doing a DNA test, and she didnt think it was a humiliation. The rumors were too fierce, and a paternity test was the most effective and direct method.
However, Luo feichui refused to go no matter what. He knew that Luo Hui was definitely his son.
His son was almost carved out of the same mold as him, and he wished he could hold him every day. Wouldnt it hurt their rtionship if they went for a test?
Luo feichui did not know that his parents had already done a DNA test when Luo Hui was born. Hence, no matter what the outside world said, they never doubted it.
The house was lively and happy. Lou Ziling and Jing Xis arrival made Lou ruofei, who was under a lot of pressure, rx.
She had wanted to educate her brother about his disappearance for two or three years, but when she saw Jing Xis undisguised love for him, Lou ruofei swallowed all the words she wanted to say.
Even Jing Xi liked Lou Ziling so much. As the elder sister, she didnt have to me her brother.
Anyway, Lou Mingyang would definitely teach Lou Ziling a lesson. She didnt need to do anything.
Jing Xi hugged Luo Hui almost the entire day. Even when it was time to go to bed, he still refused to leave.
Aunt, Ill sleep with you! Uncle will sleep outside!
Lou Zilings face darkened. Jing Xi was overjoyed. Youre a boy, so you cant sleep with a girl!
Then why can my daddy sleep with mommy?
Because theyre married. They can sleep together after theyre married!
Then Ill get married to aunt too!
Lou Ziling couldnt take it anymore. She grabbed Luo Huis small hand and dragged him away.Go home with your parents and sleep!

Luo Hui ran to Lou Mingyang andined,Grandpa, uncle is bullying me! You see, my arm is red from his grip, but Im so brave that I didnt cry at all!
The childs skin was soft and tender. Even though Lou Ziling didnt use much strength, his wrist was still red.
Lou Mingyang loved his grandson more than his son. When he saw that his grandsons arm was red, he red at Lou Ziling.What kind of uncle are you? Youre bullying a three-year-old child the moment youe back. Youre getting more and more outrageous!
Lou Ziling was reprimanded for no reason, so she looked at Luo Hui with a colder gaze.
Luo Hui wasnt afraid of him at all. He even added,Grandpa, uncle is ring at me. Hes so fierce. Ill talk to aunt. She doesnt want uncle anymore, okay?
This wont do!
He could rely on his grandson for everything else, but a daughter-inw like Jing Xi was hard to find in the world. Lou Mingyang wanted her and his son to be happy.
Be good, Junhui. Your uncle finally found a wife. Dont fight with him. When you grow up, Ill help you find someone as pretty as your aunt, okay?
Grandpa, you have to keep your word!
Yes, yes, yes!
Lou Mingyang said that, but in fact, he was not sure. He was not sure if he could find a girl as beautiful as Jing Xi for his grandson in the future. Jing Xi had the good looks of Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning. She was so beautiful that she didnt look like a real person. There was no second one!
Fortunately, Luo Hui was only three years old. When he was in his twenties, he would have long forgotten about this promise!
Lou Mingyang didnt know that he had dug a hole for himself. Every year after that, Luo Hui had to remind him to find him a wife as beautiful as his aunt.
Luo Hui was finally brought to his bedroom by tan Zhen to sleep. He was full of energy and woke up early the next morning. He knocked on Lou Ziling and Jing Xis door and said,Aunt, aunt, wake up! The sun is shining on my butt!
Jing Xi opened her eyes in a daze and looked out the window.
It was gray outside, and there was no sun!
She took Lou Zilings hand and looked at his watch. She felt helpless. It was only 5:30.
This child really didnt need a DNA test. He slept sote and woke up so early. He was simply inherited from the Luo familys mysterious physique!
Luo Feiyang had always been like this. He sleptte and woke up early. He was full of energy all day long, as if he didnt need to sleep at all!
Lou ruofei had said yesterday that Luo feicui was the same. He never slept in and was extremely diligent. This made her embarrassed to sleep in.
When Luo Hui knocked on the door for the third time, he was carried away by tan Zhen, who came in a hurry.
Its fine if my grandson woke Lou Ziling up, but dont disturb my young daughter-inw!
Family Jing used to be a super powerful family that they looked up to, and they had never dared to ask their son to marry her.
Now that they were going to be a family, he couldnt let her think that the Lou family was bad.
Jing Xi had already gotten out of bed. She opened the door and saw her future mother-inw carrying Luo Hui away quietly. She couldnt help but smile.
Her inws were all very nice people, and they wished they could give her all the good things in the house, which made her feel very warm.
Although little Luo Hui was a little mischievous, he was only three years old, so it didnt matter what he said. It would only make people think that he was smart and cute.
Lou Ziling got up and closed the door. She carried Jing Xi back to bed.Sleep a little longer. Its only 5:30. Why are you up so early?
This brat was knocking on the door so early in the morning. He was not like Lou ruofei. This waspletely the style of the Luo family! It was exactly the same as the two brothers, Luo Feifei and Luo Feiyang!
It was Jing Xis first time at the Lou familys house. She didnt know their living habits. Its my first time here, I dont think its good to sleep in,
Lou Ziling closed her eyes and kissed Jing Xis cheek. She said lightly,Theres nothing bad about it. Just sleep. We dont have any rules at home. You can wake up whenever you want.
That wont do, Jing Xi said with a smile.I have to get up early and leave a good impression on your parents.
Lou Mingyang and his wife wanted to leave a good impression on Jing Xi, and Jing Xi did the same!
She was really nervous about meeting her future inws.
Before she came, she had repeatedly asked Lou Ziling about his parents preferences and taboos. However, Lou Ziling knew nothing. He only said,My parents dont have any taboos.
When she came yesterday, Jing Xi found out that Lou Ziling was cold at home and didnt talk much. He didnt care about anyone, so she really didnt know what his family liked and what they hated.
It was rare for him to talk so much to her!
Lou Ziling did not like to stay at home, especially when Jing Xi spent most of her time and energy chatting with others. He was even more dissatisfied.
He felt that he wasnt even as popr as the three-year-old Luo Hui!
Jing Xi had been holding Luo Hui for much longer than he had.
After three days in the United States, Lou Ziling immediately returned to China with Jing Xi.
When they were at home, Jing Xi refused to be intimate with him. She did not even have the privilege of hugging him.
She was too shy and kept a distance from him in front of his parents. She couldnt even hold his hand.
Lou Zilings patience had reached its limit after three days.
Moreover, he had made up his mind that he would not be in a hurry to have a child. Otherwise, once the child was born, he would have no status at all!
When they returned to the manor, Lou Ziling pushed Jing Xi onto the bed and made love to her many times before he carried her to the shower.
Were not going anywhere in the future. Well just stay at home. You dont even let me hug you after you go out. I cant stand it.
He was used to being intimate with Jing Xi. He didnt like anyone when Jing Xi suddenly kept her distance from him.
Jing Xi leaned against Lou Zilings body softly. She felt that she had been very happy in the Lou family for the past few days. Her inws liked her, and so did little Luo Hui. It was quite lively.
There seems to be a problem with the Luo family. Dont you need to help your sister?
You mean those rumors?
Lou Ziling kissed Jing Xis bare and tender shoulders, finally feeling satisfied.
Its fine. As long as its not a life, my sister can handle it. Theres also Luo feilie. Hell definitely find out the truth. I dont need to do anything.
Lou Ziling had never cared about those rumors. Since the Luo family believed that Luo Hui was a child of the Luo family and did not doubt her sisters innocence, this matter was not a big deal.
What about Ruyi? She and Feiyang arent really going to separate, are they?
This is even less of my business.
Lou Ziling didnt care much about her sister, let alone her cousin.
It was still the same words. As long as it was not life-threatening, he would not care.
Just in case, Lou Ziling didnt allow Jing Xi to interfere.This is Luo Feiyangs own business. Youre not allowed to push me out likest time!

Chapter 1615: Must break up
Trantor: 549690339
Jing Xi wanted to help, but she didnt dare to after hearing Lou Zilings words.
She could only call tan Ruyi when Lou Ziling went to work to ask about her situation.
She had thought that tan Ruyi would be in a bad mood, but she did not seem to be affected and still looked happy.
Xixi, Ive applied to be an exchange student in the United States. Ill be able to study there in two days! Feiyang will be busy in the states, so itll be much easier for us to meet!
In the face of such a positive and happy tan Ruyi, Jing Xi really couldnt say anything to hurt her.
Could it be that Tan Ruyi didnt know that the Luo family was against her being with Luo Feiyang?
Jing Xi tried to probe a few times, and finally found out that she really did not know.
After hanging up the phone, Jing Xi felt a little awkward.
Luo Feiyang had protected tan Ruyi very well. He had originally looked like an unreliable rich yboy, but he had borne all the hardships alone and only allowed tan Ruyi to live in the beautiful sunshine.
This was how a man should look like when he fell in love with a girl.
Luo Feiyang was moved, but it would not go smoothly.
Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyis rtionship was not going well. He was not busy in the United States, but his parents did not allow him to return to city A. Thepany in city A had been temporarily handed over to Luo feilie to manage.
Dad, Ruyi is a good girl. Since I want her, I have to be responsible for her!
Luo Yis tone was a little harsh,deal with tan Ruyi the way you dealt with your ex-girlfriends! Youve had so many girlfriends, do you have to take responsibility for every one of them?
Luo Feiyang stood in the study room, straightened his neck, and said a little irritatedly,Ruyi is different from them. Without me, she definitely wont be able to survive! I promised to marry her, but Ive never promised anyone else!
I said, tan Ruyi can t! The tan family doesnt have any power at all. They dont have any money or manpower. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, even your father-inws family cant help you!
Only after Luo Yi said that did he realize that tan Ruyis father had died early. If Luo Feiyang married tan Ruyi, he would not even have a father-inw. He could not help but be even more dissatisfied.
My sister-inws family background is also very ordinary. Why did my uncle let my brother marry her?
Although your sister-inws family background is ordinary, its still a hundred times stronger than the tan family! Lou Mingyang has just helped your uncle to get a big project. The profit can be 100 million Yuan! Can the tan family do it?
Luo Yi had a good impression of Lou Mingyang. He had always felt that Lou Mingyangs children were very sessful in educating them.
But tan Ruyis surname was tan, not Lou!
Her upbringing and background were different from Lou ruofei s.
Besides, your sister-inw has a younger brother who is getting stronger and stronger. You were the one who told me that Lou Ziling is Li Xiao. Who would dare to look down on Lou Ziling after taking control of the Li family? Whats more, Lou Ziling is going to marry Jing Xi in the future. How can tan Ruyipare to your sister-inw?
Luo Feiyangs face was a little cold.I dont need to marry a girl with a strong background. I just need to work hard!
Luo Yi didnt take his sons words to heart at all. Counting on Luo Feiyang to fight for a ce of his own was no different from a dream.
He thought of Jing Xi and felt his heart ache. She should have been his daughter-inw!
She was such a good daughter-inw, with a good face, a good family background and a high IQ and EQ. His future grandson could have had a Grandpa like Jing Yichen.
Now, it was all for Lou Mingyang!
Luo Yi had resigned himself to the fact that his son couldnt marry Jing Xi, but he couldnt let his future grandson not even have a grandfather, could he?
Look at little Luo Hui. Not only did his grandparents dote on him, but they also wanted to dote on him to the heavens.
Luo Yi felt that he would definitely be a good grandfather, and his wife would definitely be a grandmother who would love her child. However, he still hoped that his grandson would love him more. If his maternal family was stronger, he would have more support in the future.
You must break up with tan Ruyi. Your mother and I will never agree to her marrying into the family! You and she are people from two different worlds. You are not of the same social status. You are not allowed to meet again in the future! If you feel that youve let her down, let her name a price, and wellpensate her!
As Luo Yi spoke, he suddenly remembered the diamond ring. He frowned and said,I heard from Xiao Liu and Alice that tan Ruyi has a habit of stealing. We definitely dont want a girl like her in the Luo family! Well beughed at if we tell others!
Theyre lying. Ruyi didnt steal my things. She was framed. The people who had framed him were his good brother, Xiao Liu, and Luo feilies ex-girlfriend, Alice.
Unfortunately, too much time had passed since the incident, and Luo Feiyang had no evidence to prove tan Ruyis innocence.
Little six didnt get his name because he was the sixth in rank, but because he had six fingers on his left hand.
He used to be one of Luo Feiyangsckeys. He had fought with Luo Feiyang, drank with him, and hit on girls with him. They were very close.
Alice had immigrated to the United States during her grandfathers generation. Among Luo feilies ex-girlfriends, she had the best family background and had been with him for the longest time.
After they broke up, she had been good friends with Luo feilie. That was why she attended his wedding.
Therefore, when these two people, along with a few other friends, testified against tan Ruyi for stealing his ring, Luo Feiyang did not have the slightest suspicion.
At that time, he had directly vented his anger on tan Ruyi. As he did not know Tan Ruyi, he thought that she had a bad character.
I dont care if she stole anything or not, but her reputation is already out there. Many people know that theres something wrong with her, and we cant exin it to everyone! The best way is not to marry her, but to marry someone with a good character and a good family background!
Luo Feiyang felt that this was very unfair to tan Ruyi. He shouted angrily,Others framed her, so she has to bear thebel of a thief for no reason. She didnt do anything wrong! Shes more innocent and kind than anyone else!
Luo Yi tried his best as well. He stood up abruptly and said sternly,Its useless to be kind! If your surname wasnt Luo and you were a poor boy, would tan Ruyi have taken a fancy to you? Did she marry you because youre kind?
Luo Feiyang sneered,if I dont have a single cent, Ruyi will still like me! She didnt want to marry me for my money! Shes not as tacky as you think!
Then lets try and see if she likes money or you!
Luo Yi called his assistant and gave him some instructions.
The next day, tan Ruyi was taken to a coffee shop.
Miss tan, please leave my second young master. Name a price aspensation.
Chapter 1616
Chapter 1616: Differences in opinion
Trantor: 549690339
Tan Ruyi was stunned and didnt understand what was going on.
She felt like she had seen this scene many times in television dramas!
However, she had never thought that such a scenario would happen to her.
She wanted tough, but at the same time, she wanted to cry.
Your second young master is Luo Feiyang, right?
Tan Ruyi blinked and asked the most basic question.
Yes. The Luo family doesnt approve of your marriage. Second young master will be staying in United States for a long time and wont being back. Hell be engaged to a girl of equal social status. You have nothing. Second young master is just ying with you. However, our young master is very sincere. You can name your price as long as youre willing to leave him.
Tan Ruyi finally realized that Jing Xi had called her to ask how she was with Luo Feiyang to remind her that the Luo family was against them being together.
Tan Ruyis heart felt a little sour. She was too naive. She thought that as long as the two of them loved each other enough, no obstacles would affect them.
How did this kind of plot y out in TV dramas?
Oh, right, pick up the coffee, pour it on the other person, and then say,my love for him cant be measured by money!
However, tan Ruyi felt that the plot was not good.
If she really wanted to be with Luo Feiyang, she shouldnt have poured coffee on the people sent by her family. Otherwise, they would have a worse impression of her.
If she didnt want to be with Luo Feiyang, then there was no need to pour coffee on her. She could just take the money and leave. That way, she would have no shame.
Give me a million and Ill leave your second young master.
Tan Ruyi didnt even shed a tear as she spoke softly.
The other party immediately gave her a check for a million Yuan, and she took it back to school.
She was a timid girl. She was afraid of snakes, rats, ghosts, and monsters. She was also afraid of her cold cousin, Lou Ziling. However, this did not mean that she was weak.
On the contrary, she grew up in a single-parent family and relied on her mother for survival. She was actually very strong.
She had never regretted being with Luo Feiyang. Every day that she spent with him was an unforgettable happy time in her life.
If she was a hindrance to his future, she could give up everything and choose to quit.
She carefully ced the check in her textbook, held her chin, and looked at it quietly.
It was definitely not Luo Feiyangs intention to give her money to leave. Their love had always been pure. Tan Ruyi believed that Luo Feiyang knew that she was not the kind of person who loved money.
However, his parents would be at ease if he epted the check.
When Luo Yi, who was far away in North America, received the news that tan Ruyi had asked for money, he immediately called Luo Feiyang over.She chose money. What else do you have to say?
Luo Feiyang sneered,Hmph, Im sure you guys forced me to! Ive been chasing her for so long, but shes never asked me for money! Besides, although the tan family isnt as rich as the Lou family, her mother opened a very big teahouse and her father left behind a lot of assets when he died. She doesntck money!
Luo Yi was so angry at his son!
He had specifically instructed his assistant not to use force to force or threaten tan Ruyi.
It was tan Ruyi who chose not to ept Luo Feiyangs money, but his son was still on tan Ruyis side!
Im your father, why would I harm you? I, Luo Yi, dont want to force a little girl to go to school! She was the one who asked for a million Yuan. She doesnt have you in her heart at all!
How can there be a father like you? I want to marry a girl I like, but I can t? I dont care, my brother has married the one he likes, I want to marry the one I like too! I think Ruyi is the best. Those so-calleddies that you and my mom have taken a fancy to are all ugly and pretentious, and I dont know how many men theyve been with. I dont want them!
That wont do. Ive already made an appointment for you. Youll meet the Lin familys young miss tomorrow. Your mother has already met her before. She said that shes beautiful, generous, and very knowledgeable. Shes very suitable for you!
Luo Yi felt that his son had had hundreds of girlfriends before, but they all broke up very quickly. Tan Ruyi should be the same. In a few days, Luo Feiyang would meet another beautiful girl and forget about tan Ruyi!
Luo Feiyang went back to his room in pain. He felt that everyone else was living a carefree life, but he was the only one who was controlled by his parents and brother.
It was bad enough that they were forcing him to run thepany, but now they were forcing him to break up with his girlfriend. He felt that he would never be able to escape from his parents grasp.
He called tan Ruyi to ask her what was going on. Why would she ept money?
Unfortunately, tan Ruyis phone had been turned off. He had no choice but to ask Jing Xi for help.
Xixi, Im trapped at home and cant get out. My passport has been confiscated by my father, so I cant go to A city. Can you help me take a look at Ruyi?
Okay! Jing Xi immediately agreed. Im going home and Ill go to school to see her for you. Dont worry, shes my good friend and Lou Zilings cousin. Ill take good care of her!
When Lou Ziling got home from work that night, he found out that Jing Xi had found him another job.
He pinched Jing Xis cheek and said helplessly,Didnt we agree that its none of their business? Wasnt thest lesson enough?
But this time is different from thest time. Ruyi is your cousin. You dont care about her lifelong happiness?
I dont care, Lou Ziling replied without hesitation.
No way. Youre too cruel. You dont even care about your own sister?
Shes an adult and doesnt need my care. Its not like youve just found out how cruel I am.
Lou Ziling didnt have the awareness of being a cousin. He couldnt even take care of his own wife. How could he have the time to help others get married?
Jing Xi had no other choice. It was useless for her to act coquettishly. Lou Ziling seemed to have made up his mind not to get involved in Luo Feiyangs Affairs.
When it was time to sleep at night, she ignored Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling didnt know whether to be angry orugh. Last time, when they met Wu Wei, she used this trick. In order to coax her to talk to him, he had to agree.
But this time, he would not agree no matter what.
He had the same thoughts as Lou ruofei. He didnt think it was a good thing for tan Ruyi to marry into the Luo family.
Tan Ruyis pure personality was only suitable for ordinary and simple families. She couldnt handle the schemes and intrigues of the rich and powerful.
Moreover, Lou Ziling did not want to blindly amodate Jing Xi. He could amodate most things, but when it came to getting involved in other peoples rtionships, he was firm in his stand and would not interfere in it again.
So, even if Jing Xi ignored him, he did notpromise.
This was the first time they had not hugged each other to sleep since they got engaged.
Jing Xi was still angry when she got up the next day. She packed her luggage and flew back to A city.
Chapter 1617
Chapter 1617: The scar has healed and forgotten the pain
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling thought that she had gone to work. She only found out in the afternoon that she had left alone.
He rushed to the airport and chased Jing Xi to A city without even caring about thepany.
By the time he found Jing Xi in the ssroom, the sky had already turned dark.
Tan Ruyi was sitting next to Jing Xi. She was very happy to see Jing Xi, but when she saw Lou Ziling, she realized that Jing Xi had probably quarreled with her cousin.
She saw Lou Zilings expression and stood up nervously.Cousin
She had a lot to say to Jing Xi, but she could not say a word to Lou Ziling.
In her impression, her cousin never chatted.
Lou Ziling stood beside Jing Xi and frowned.Who told you toe here yourself? Im very worried about you, do you know that? Ive searched the entire school!
Cousin, Xixis fine. Shes been with me
You shut up!
Lou Ziling interrupted tan Ruyi coldly,take care of the matter between you and Luo Feiyang. I will tell your mother everything! Luo Feiyang isnt a good person either. You dont have a brain and you dont even know that youve been tricked by him!
Tan Ruyi had never dared to admit to her mother that she was in a rtionship with Luo Feiyang. Wang Qiu had never allowed her to be in a rtionship too early. If she knew that she and Luo Feiyang had already done what should have happened and what shouldnt have happened, she would be furious.
Tan Ruyi was so scared that her face turned pale.Cousin, dont tell her. I, I, I Ill tell her myself. Ill be honest, okay?
Jing Xi couldnt stand it anymore. She couldnt help saying,Ruyi, dont be afraid. Ill go home with you. Dont listen to him. Its okay. Feiyang is a good person. Your mother will definitely agree!
Tan Ruyi did not have any confidence. Wang Qiu had told her many times to focus on her studies in school and strictly forbid her from falling in love.
However, it was nothing. She had already broken up with Luo Feiyang, hadnt she?
Tan Ruyi trembled as she returned home and confessed to Wang Qiu.
Lou Ziling took Jing Xi back to their small vi.
Xixi, you promised me that you wouldnt interfere in other peoples rtionship!
Lou Zilings tone was a little cold. He held on to Jing Xis hand tightly, in case she ran away again if he let go.
Luo Feiyang also helped me before. I cant not help him,
Jing Xi lowered her head. Although she looked calm, she was obviously still angry with Lou Ziling.
I couldnt find you before. It was Luo Feiyang who brought me your news and brought me into the Li family manor. If it wasnt for him, I might still be looking for you. Thats why he asked me to take care of Ruyi. I should take care of her.
Lou Ziling felt that she was getting more and more helpless with Jing Xi.
Perhaps she was used to living a free and easy life, doing whatever she wanted to do, and she was still the same now.
She would definitely do what she had decided on.
I dont think Ruyi is suitable for Luo Feiyang. Shed be happier if she married an ordinary person than Luo Feiyang! Thats what her mother has always thought. Its useless for you to help her.
Your help would definitely be useful, but youre not willing to help! I can only do it myself!
Jing Xi felt that Lou Ziling was bing more and more powerful. The power he controlled was nowparable to the Luo family. Even if the Luo family looked down on the tan family, with Lou Ziling as a cousin, tan Ruyi had a strong background.
I dont care what you do in the future, but you dont have to care about what I do!
Im going to sleep, Jing Xi said coldly.
Lou Ziling followed her in and sat by the bed, looking at her quietly.
Xixi, lets stop, okay? Its not that I dont care about Ruyi anymore, but its for the best that shes separated from Luo Feiyang now. Even my sister thinks that they should be separated.
Lou Ziling really didnt like to meddle in other peoples Affairs. The Luo family obviously didnt like tan Ruyi. If she married her, would she have a good life?
If Luo Feiyang was strong enough and had a lot of say in the family, tan Ruyi would have a better life after marrying him. However, Luo Feiyangs current strength was far from being able to protect tan Ruyi.
He didnt even know what was going on about tan Ruyi being framed for stealing the ring.
This was the smallest and most ordinary set-up, but neither of them could solve it.
My sister has already married into the Luo family, so theres no need for our family to send Ruyi in. They dont want to marry, and we dont want Ruyi to marry either. When my sister got married that year, I objected to it, but she had already made up her mind and I was unable to change it.
Jing Xi was stunned. She had overlooked something. Perhaps from Lou Zilings point of view, he really did not want his cousin to marry into the Luo family.
She thought that Luo Feiyang was a good person, but Lou Ziling never thought so.
I think no one likes Ruyi more than Luo Feiyang. She will be very happy to marry Luo Feiyang.
Jing Xi had never seen Luo Feiyang treat any girl so well. She couldnt bear to see a pair of lovers being broken up.
Then what did Ruyi say?
Lou Ziling held Jing Xis hand, pulled her up, and held her in her arms.You ran off on your own today and scared me.
Ruyi said she wanted to give up and didnt want to dy Feiyang.
Jing Xi felt that it wasnt good for her to leave without saying a word today. However, she was angry at that time. How could she have said hello to Lou Ziling?
She had very few quarrels with Lou Ziling. Yesterday was the most serious one.
Because he didnt even hug her to sleep.
Do you think well fight every day after we get married? Cold War every day?
I won t! Lou Ziling said firmly.
But we had an argument yesterday.
This doesnt count. This can only be considered as you throwing a little tantrum.
Lou Ziling felt that their life was very stable. After going to the United States, there was one more difficult thing to deal with.
He found Luo Feiyang even more unpleasant to the eye now!
Its okay to y around asionally, but youre not allowed to run away. You have to tell me where youre going, or Ill be angry.
Lou Ziling felt that Jing Xis little tantrum would make her life more interesting.
He was very willing to pamper her, and it didnt matter if she was spoiled.
But he couldnt ept that Jing Xi had left home because of someone else!
Xixi, youve really forgotten the pain after the scar has healed. Dont you remember what happened to Wu Wei before? Arent you jealous?
Ruyi is your cousin. Why should I be worried?
Thats not for sure, right? I remember that there are many representatives of the ancient generation who marry as siblings. Ruyi has a good personality and is beautiful. She also admires me a lot, so its possible that Im interested in her, right?
Chapter 1618
Chapter 1618: Iceberg man
Trantor: 549690339
This is the modern era, not the ancient times!
Jing Xi did not believe that Lou Ziling would fall in love with her cousin. Tan Ruyi would never fall in love with Lou Ziling. She was scared to death when she saw Lou Ziling.
However, she had a disagreement with Lou Ziling on this matter. She felt that she should not force Lou Ziling to make Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyis marriage happen.
How about this? Ill help you. You can choose not to support me, but you cant object either.
Lou Ziling felt helpless. He was against tan Ruyi marrying into the Luo family!
What was so good about the Luo family? his sister and sister were going to marry into the family. Luo Feiyang had pursued Jing Xi before and had countless girlfriends, but tan Ruyi didnt mind. Could it be because women dont love bad men?
Luo feilie had countless women. He had enough fun and found a virtuousdy to marry.
Lou Ziling had been very concerned about this before. He felt that his sister had suffered a loss. That was why he had never touched them even though he had girlfriends in name.
Okay, I dont object. You can do whatever you want. Ruyi is not a child anymore. If she wants to marry into the Luo family, Ill be her backing.
Jing Xi smiled when she heard that Lou Ziling was willing to protect tan Ruyi.
Okay, you go home first. Ill stay in city A for a few more days. When Ruyis matter is settled, Ill go back!
Jing Xi was in a good mood. She hugged Lou Ziling and kissed him, then drove him away.
Ill go with you to your house tomorrow to meet your parents. Ill leave then.
Lou Ziling was worried that Jing Xi would stay in A city. He had to hand her over to family Jing and let Jing Yichen protect her so that he could go back.
Jing Xi thought that she should also ask Lou Ziling to go to her house. Otherwise, it would be a little unreasonable if she didnt see them when she came to A city.
The next morning, Lou Ziling took Jing Xi to the Jing family.
Jing Yichens attitude towards him was much gentler thanst time.
Not to mention Shangguan ning, who almost treated him like her own son.
Lou Ziling rxed. He was treated the same way as Jing Xi was in the Lou family. The strangeness was gone, and they were like a family now.
After lunch, Lou Ziling returned to city W. He couldnt stay with Jing Xi in city A forever. There were many things waiting for him to deal with.
His Foundation was still too shallow, and he needed to have in-depth contact with various government departments to fight for more rights.
The mayor of city W was a newly appointed middle-aged man in his forties, named Zuo Yan. He came from a prominent family and had been honest and self-disciplined since he entered politics. He had almost no weaknesses and no ck spots.
Lou Ziling had obtained arge piece ofnd two years ago with Li Jings help, but he still hadnt received any approval.
He had already paid the money, but the government had forbidden him from using it formercial purposes.
Thend had always been in ruins, and all kinds of building materials were piled up everywhere. The losses every day were in the tens of thousands.
There were many simr situations.
For example, hispanys Tax Review was particrly strict, and the documents submitted were often rejected for no reason, asking for amendments.
Every day, Lou Ziling had to shoulder all the big and small matters.
Meeting the mayor had already be a pressing matter for Lou Ziling.
However, Zuo Yans new position was very aggressive, and it was the most sensitive period, so he refused to see anyone.
Zuo Yan didnt see Lou Ziling, but his daughter Zuo Jia did.
She was wearing a decent white suit and skirt. She received Lou Ziling in Zuo Yans special reception room.
Lou Ziling was a little surprised to see Zuo Jia.
Her entire temperament was very simr to his sister, Lou ruofei!
She was graceful and elegant. One look and one could tell that she was a girl raised by an aristocratic family.
The only difference was that Zuo Jia was much more beautiful than Lou ruofei.
She was only wearing a in white suit, but she gave off a beautiful feeling of spring.
Young master Li, right? Im very sorry, my father has gone to the province for a meeting. He said that I must receive you well today. The Li familyspany has made a major contribution to the economic development of our entire city, and the government will definitely provide more policy favoritism to Master Li.
The moment she opened her mouth, Lou Ziling heard all the formal words that Lou Ziling had heard countless times. However, her voice was so soft and gentle that he couldnt get angry at her.
Lou Ziling became cautious.
He wasnt sure if Zuo Jia was pretending to be so gentle and beautiful, or if she was really like this in nature.
If he was pretending, he couldnt see any trace of it. This could only prove that her father was a more powerful character than she was.
If he wasnt pretending, Lou Ziling wouldnt have understood why Zuo Yan had asked his daughter to receive him.
At the very least, he should have gotten a Deputy Mayor to receive him. Why did he let his daughtere?
Lou Ziling sat in her wheelchair with a mask on her face as usual.Many thanks.
Zuo Jia gave him a faint smile and personally made him some tea. She brought it to him and said, Youre just as the rumors say.
Rumors?
What do the rumors say about me?
Hes an iceberg man!
Zuo Jias smile widened, and two shallow dimples appeared on her cheeks, which added a bit of sweetness to her already beautiful face.
I dont live up to my name, Lou Ziling said indifferently.
Everyone in the city knew that he was disfigured. He was in a wheelchair and his legs were not good, so he was not a handsome man.
Thats what everyone says. Ive just arrived here and Ive only heard rumors about you. Youre the most famous person in city W.
Zuo Jias eyes were clear, and she didnt hide the curiosity in her eyes.
A strange thought suddenly appeared in Lou Zilings mind. Zuo Yan didnt want to satisfy his daughters curiosity, so he asked Zuo Jia to receive him, did he?
Did this mean that he doted on his daughter a lot?
If that was the case, he might be able to find an opening from Zuo Jia.
He had met countless people who were curious about him, but Zuo Jia seemed to be restraining herself.
When Jing Xi first saw him like this, she had unceremoniously taken off his mask.
Master Li, Im a stic surgeon. If you dont mind, I might be able to help you take a look at your face.
Lou Ziling raised her head and met Zuo Jias hopeful eyes.
He had rarely met people like Zuo Jia who didnt y by the rules. Did Zuo Yan know that his daughter wanted to use him as ab rat?
No need, thank you!
Of course, he wouldnt let Zuo Jia see his face up close.I thought youre a government official, and thats why youre here to receive me on behalf of the mayor. Im here to talk business, so Ill naturally go to the doctor.
Lou Zilings tone wasnt too cold, but it wasnt gentle either.
Zuo Jia said softly,dont misunderstand, Master Li. Im indeed working here. My father didnt abuse his official position for personal gain. stic surgery is just a small hobby of mine. I just cant bear to see someone disfigure me.
Chapter 1619
Chapter 1619: The stic surgeon
Trantor: 549690339
She spoke sincerely and her face was calm, which made Lou Ziling feel embarrassed to make things difficult for her.
But he didnt want to stay here any longer and be studied by Zuo Jia as a case.
If Mayor Zuo is free, please let me know, miss Zuo. Ille when he is free.
Lou Ziling left in her wheelchair, but Zuo Jia followed behind him, watching him silently.
Miss Zuo, please wait. Lou Ziling was forced to say something. Zuo Jia stood there helplessly and did not follow her.
Lou Ziling felt a little regretful when she returned to thepany.
He had been too cold to Zuo Jia, and his words were impolite. If she were toin to Zuo Yan about this, Zuo Yan might never see him again.
But he really couldnt be polite to any girl other than Jing Xi, even if Zuo Jia was beautiful and gentle.
When Lou Ziling got home from work, she called Jing Xi and asked her about the situation. Knowing that she had made no progress, she could not help but smile bitterly.If theyre not together, you wonte back? Im not used to you not being at home. Now, I hope that Ruyi can marry Luo Feiyang tomorrow.
I thought that you would be happy if I wasnt by your side! After all, theres no one to control you anymore, you can hook up with any girl you want!
You have to be clear about this. I didnt ask you to leave, you were the one who insisted on leaving. Youre the one whos happy, Im not happy at all. I want you toe back now.
Lou Zilings voice was filled with grievance.I didnt hook up with any girls. I wear a mask every day when I go out. Unless ... Unless the other party is a stic surgeon, they wont be interested in me.
Lou Ziling didnt want to mention Zuo Jia, but since the words were already on the tip of her tongue and she felt that there was nothing she couldnt say, she casually mentioned her.
Jing Xi did not understand what stic surgeon meant. Her eyes lit up.Yeah, why didnt I think of that? you dont have to wear a mask anymore. Just say that you went for stic surgery and got rid of your scar!
Lou Ziling smiled.Thats a good idea. Maybe I can give it a try.
He was just trying to make her happy.
He never intended to take off his mask.
He just needed to wear a mask on the outside. This was his greatest form of protection.
If he didnt wear the mask, people would recognize him as Lou Ziling, which would bring him endless trouble.
His true identity could not be exposed no matter what.
After hanging up the phone, Lou Ziling fell asleep on the big bed alone. She felt a little empty in her heart.
He used to like being alone and living alone, but now he was not used to it!
He didnt sleep well that night. When he saw Zuo Jia in his office the next day, he thought he was seeing things.
Mr. Li, Ive been ordered to evaluate the overall strength of yourpany. The government will allocate funds and adjust the relevant policies ording to yourpanys operating conditions.
Today, Zuo Jia had changed into a light green pleated skirt that reached her knees. She had also changed the way she addressed Lou Ziling.
Yesterdays meeting seemed to be a private meeting, and today was a formal work meeting.
Lou Ziling couldnt believe that Mayor Zuo, who had always been fair and just, wasnt abusing his authority for his own benefit.
He had already spoiled his daughter to the heavens!
Lou Ziling quickly adjusted her attitude towards Zuo Jia. She was no longer as cold as she was yesterday. Instead, she smiled and said in a gentle tone,This is Mayor Zuos support for ourpany. Miss Zuo, if you need any materials, please let me know!
Then help me arrange an office. Its best if its right next to you so that its easier to find you. Ill be at the government office in the morning ande here in the afternoon. Is it convenient for you, boss li?
Of course!
Lou Ziling wouldnt say that it was inconvenient. Zuo Jia was like an Imperial envoy on patrol. If they could get past her, it would mean that they had taken over the entire city government. All the obstacles in the future would no longer exist.
He asked his assistant toe in and apany Zuo Jia personally. He asked her to pick an office for herself, and then he called for a high-level meeting to introduce Zuo Jia to everyone so that everyone could cooperate with her.
The group of high-level officials looked at each other. They were all well-informed people. The new mayor of W city, Zuo Yan, had a daughter named Zuo Jia.
Looking at the girl sitting next to Lou Ziling, she was definitely the mayors daughter.
Zuo Jia simply greeted everyone and didnt say anything else.
She looked at Lou Ziling from time to time, as if she wanted to see through his mask and see his face.
The meeting ended quickly, and everyone went back to their work.
Zuo Jia, on the other hand, was quite rxed. She looked at the information and talked to Lou Ziling. The day passed very quickly.
The next day, she didnt go to the government office in the morning. Instead, she went straight to Lou Zilingspany.
I cant inspect yourpany just by looking at the title of the book. I have to do a field trip. President Li, can you show me around your headquarters and branch offices?
Lou Ziling rejected him subconsciously.Im too busy. Ill ask assistant Zhou to take you there.
Assistant Zhou was the new assistant that Jing Xi had picked for him. He was very good-looking, sunny, handsome, and talkative. He was very suitable for a tour.
President Li, I want you to guide me. You know yourpany the best. Im sure other people cant exin it as in-depth andprehensive as you.
Zuo Jias voice was still soft, but her eyes were firm, and she didnt want to give in.
If you dont bring me along, Ill go back to the government right now. Ill give you zero points for your test score!
She chuckled and threatened Lou Ziling. Perhaps it was because she didnt look like she was threatening Lou Ziling, Lou Ziling couldnt feel any disgust towards her.
He gradually realized that Zuo Jias gentle personality was not an act.
Lou Ziling personally took Zuo Jia to the office building of the headquarters.
In the process, Zuo Jia took over assistant Zhous job and pushed Lou Zilings wheelchair, slowly looking around.
Miss Zuo, its better to let my assistant handle this. I dont dare to trouble you.
Zuo Jias fair hands were still holding onto the back of the wheelchair as she said softly,Its fun to push a wheelchair, cant you let me experience it? Li Xiao, you can just treat me as a normal friend. You can call me Zuo Jia or Jia Jia. Miss Zuo sounds distant.
Lou Ziling didnt want to insist on her assistant pushing her, so she let Zuo Jia do it.
As for the sense of distance, he felt that the more intense this feeling was, the better.
That day, Zuo Jia only finished visiting the headquarters building. She didnt even manage to carry out her n to visit the branch office.
When she came to work the next day, she took the bus with Lou Ziling to the branchpany.
However, she discovered Lou Zilings Secret.Li Xiao, can you walk with your legs?
Chapter 1620
Chapter 1620: Do you not remember me?
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Zilings heart skipped a beat, but her expression remained calm.Yes, you can take a few steps, but you cant walk for too long. Miss Zuo is very observant.
Zuo Jia smiled gently, and dimples appeared on her fair cheeks, making her look particrly gentle and beautiful. Dont misunderstand, I dont mean any harm. I just feel that its a pity for a person like you to not be able to walk. I want to know the condition of your leg and whether it can be cured. Thats all.
Her voice was so gentle and sincere that Lou Ziling was still on guard against her. However, when she saw how serious she was, she suddenly felt that she was overthinking.
He had been fighting with Li Zhi for too long and thought of people in the worst way. He was more guarded than anyone else and had long forgotten that there was a kind and good side to the world.
Lou Ziling stared at Zuo Jia for a long time. Zuo Jia looked back at him calmly and did not try to avoid his gaze.
Many thanks!
Then can I see your legs? My father knows a lot of famous doctors, maybe they can cure you.
No need,
Lou Ziling refused Zuo Jias offer and continued to show her around the branch office.
Zuo Jia was pushing Lou Zilings wheelchair from behind. A trace of doubt shed across her beautiful eyes.
She lowered her head and looked at Lou Zilings legs, which were as thick as a normal person s. She was even more confused than the first time she saw him.
ording tomon sense, if ones legs were disabled and they didnt move for a long time, the muscles would shrink and the legs would be thin.
But Lou Ziling didn t.
The smooth muscle lines of his legs could still be vaguely seen under his trousers.
She was getting more and more curious about Lou Zilings face under the mask.
After visiting the branch office, it was already veryte. Thepany was located in a County in city W, so it would take more than an hours drive to get back to the city.
Li Xiao, lets not go back today. Well stay here. Well go back after checking your construction site tomorrow morning.
Okay, Ill get someone to book a hotel for you. However, the hotels in the county are very ordinary. You might have to make do with it.
Its fine, as long as its safe and clean.
Zuo Jia was very easy to talk to. She didnt have the temper of a rich youngdy at all. She was as gentle as an ordinary girl-next-door.
Lou Ziling knew many daughters from influential families, but she had never met anyone like Zuo Jia, who was very easy-going.
She was the kind of girl who could enjoy wealth and glory in peace, but also endure the in and hard life.
She had many merits, such as a good family background, good temperament, and good looks, but she didnt have a boyfriend.
Lou Ziling had thought that as the mayors daughter, Zuo Jia would have countless suitors. However, after two days of contact, she didnt seem to have any.
Her life was so peaceful that it was a little dull, without any messy implications.
Lou Ziling treated Zuo Jia to a sumptuous dinner and realized that she was not a picky eater at all. She could eat anything and would finish her own meal.
You cant order such a set meal next time.
Zuo Jia sipped her lemon tea and said in a low voice.
Whats wrong? is it not good?
Lou Ziling had already chosen the most expensive restaurant. Since the mayor had sent his daughter here, he naturally had to take care of her and make sure that her three meals were as sumptuous as possible.
No, its quite delicious. Its just that you ordered too much. I dont like to waste food, so I ate it all.
Zuo Jia was slightly embarrassed, and her cheeks were slightly flushed.Do you think I ate too much?
In the past, when she ate with others, they would often be surprised by her amazing appetite. She even got the nickname little pig Zuo.
Lou Ziling shook her head.No. My fiance doesnt like to waste food. Its normal.
However, Zuo Jia didnt like to waste food and ate everything herself, while Jing Xi always let Lou Ziling finish the rest.
The blush on Zuo Jias face slowly disappeared. She hesitated for a while and then asked in a low voice,I heard that your fiances surname is Jing.
Anyone with the slightest bit of knowledge would know what this surname meant.
Lou Zilings eyes showed a touch of gentleness when she mentioned Jing Xi.Yes, her surname is Jing. She went back to her parents house these two days, so shes not with me.
Zuo Jia looked at the man under the light in a daze.
Lou Ziling took off her mask because she had to eat. The scar on her face looked a little ferocious, which was a strong contrast to his gentle eyes.
Li Xiao, your scar looks very simr. Its not a problem to lie to ordinary people, but those who study medicine can tell with one look that this isnt a real scar.
Lou Zilings pupils shrank. He didnt expect Zuo Jia to be so meticulous that she would find out that his scar was fake!
Zuo Jias next words made Lou Zilings calm face copse.
I felt that you were a little familiar since the first time I saw you. Lou Ziling, you may not remember me, but I have always remembered you. We were junior high school ssmates for about half a year and we even sat at the same table.
Zuo Jias voice was still soft as if she was just stating a fact. She didnt realize that her words would make Lou Ziling want to kill her.
Lou Ziling couldnt remember the existence of Zuo Jia. Although he had a good memory, he would forget people and things that he didnt care about.
His expression turned cold,what do you want? What does Mayor Zuo want?
No, no, no. Ziling, dont misunderstand. I dont want anything. My father doesnt know your identity either!
Zuo Jia exined anxiously,I was just happy to meet you. Ive been wondering if you were him. I only confirmed it tonight. I wont say anything, I just want you to be well!
In fact, she had just confirmed it. She just called Lou Zilings name to test him. She didnt expect him to admit it without denying it.
However, she didnt dare to say that. Lou Zilings temper had always been bad. Now, he looked even colder than when he was young. Zuo Jia didnt want to annoy him.
There were too many people in the dining room, so it was not a good ce to talk. Lou Ziling took a deep breath and said,Lets go to the hotel.
He didnt want to stay in a hotel, but he had no choice now.
There was no one at home when he went home anyway. Jing Xi was not at home, so he did not even have the desire to go home. He would rather stay in a hotel than live alone in the gloomy Li family manor.
Lou Ziling brought Zuo Jia to the best hotel in the county. He didnt go to his own room. Instead, he went to Zuo Jias room.
Miss Zuo, I hope you can keep this a secret. If my identity gets out, your parents will be heartbroken.
Zuo Jia was a little sad. She reached out her hand to touch Lou Zilings face, but he was giving off a cold aura that kept people away. She retracted her hand halfway.
You dont remember me at all?

Chapter 1621: Allergic to seafood
Trantor: 549690339
I dont remember! Lou Ziling answered without any hesitation.
He couldnt trust Zuo Jia, and he couldnt trust the newly appointed Mayor Zuo.
In fact, looking at Zuo Jias face now, Lou Ziling could vaguely remember that there was such a gentle girl in middle school.
However, he could not remember what it was called.
Perhaps, he never knew the names of his ssmates. He had always been a loner and rarely spoke to others. Even if it was his deskmate, they probably wouldnt say a word for the whole day.
Its fine if you dont remember. Its enough that I remember you. Dont worry, I wont tell anyone about you, not even my father.
Lou Ziling nodded indifferently.Thats good. You should rest early.
He turned around to leave, but Zuo Jia called out to him,Lou Ziling!
Is there anything else? Lou Ziling stopped.
Can you also take off this mask and let me see your face?
Zuo Jias tone was a little pleading. She was originally gentle and beautiful, but at this moment, she looked even more pitiful. If it was someone else, they might not be able to refuse such a girl.
However, Lou Ziling was used to being cold. He didnt know what it meant to have tender feelings for women.
He didnt reply and left Zuo Jias room.
Zuo Jia leaned against the wall and slowly squatted down. She muttered,He doesnt remember me ...
Lou Ziling didnt know about Zuo Jias disappointment. Even if he did, he wouldnt care. He was thinking about Jing Xi all the time. He called her as soon as he returned to his room.
Xixi, when are youing back? I miss you.
Jing Xi was in a good mood. She said happily,I definitely wont be able to go back for a while. Ill go to United States with Ruyi. Shes going there to be an exchange student. She can meet Luo Feiyang and relieve her lovesickness!
Lou Ziling fell into a long silence.
Ziling, whats wrong? Are you angry? Dont worry, when I go to the Luo family with Ruyi, their matter will be solved. Then I will go back to apany you!
Yes, Im not worried. With you around, the Luo family will agree to their marriage.
Lou Ziling quickly adjusted his mood so that Jing Xi could not hear his low mood.
Whatever Jing Xi wanted to do, he would let her do it. She was supposed to be a happy little bird flying in the sky. He should not have tied her to his side all the time.
Lou Ziling didnt feel sleepy anymore after she hung up the phone.
He stood in front of the clean window of the hotel and looked at the lights of thousands of houses outside, feeling small in his heart.
He still needed to be strong. The power he controlled now was still too weak. Otherwise, he could have done what tan Ruyi did with just a word.
His prestige was far from Li Jing S. Li Jing used to have a deep influence on the mayor, and no one here dared to make things difficult for her.
Lou Ziling slowly clenched his fists. The passion that had once subsided was slowly reignited. After he got engaged to Jing Xi, he only wanted to live a stable life. But at this moment, he felt that perhaps what Jing Xi wanted was not stability. She wanted to live a life full of excitement and fun.
He put the wheelchair in the room and strode out to knock on the door of Zuo Jias room.
Lou Ziling waited outside for a while before the door opened. Zuo Jias eyes were red. She held the door frame and said with difficulty,I think Im having an allergic reaction. Send me to the hospital!
As soon as she finished speaking, she fell down softly.
Her exposed arms and legs were covered with red dots. Lou Ziling could even see the number of red dots increasing rapidly.
Lou Ziling picked her up from the carpet, left the hotel, and drove her to the hospital.
He didnt bring his wheelchair, so he wasnt li Xiao at the moment. The human skin mask on his face was too ferocious and would easily attract attention.
Lou Ziling tore off her mask.
Zuo Jias allergic reaction was very serious. She felt that it was difficult to breathe. However, when she saw Lou Zilings face, she felt that it was worth it no matter how painful it was.
He was famous for being a handsome boy in school when he was a teenager, and now he was even more handsome than when he was young.
Zuo Jia forced a smile and said in a soft voice,Ziling, Did you know? When you were in junior high school, there were many girls who liked you. Many of them even wrote you love letters!
Lou Zilings expression was indifferent.Youre wrong. I didnt receive a single letter.
Zuo Jias eyes were filled with pride, and her tone was light.Of course, because I was the one who received those love letters for you. Girls are more shy, so they wouldnt have the nerve to directly stuff the love letters into your hands. They definitely had to get a middleman to pass them to you. Im the most suitable middleman!
Lou Ziling couldnt help but look at her. Her originally delicate and beautiful face was now full of red spots. Her eyes were so swollen that even her double eyelids had be single eyelids.
She could still joke when her allergy was so serious. Shouldnt she be crying like a Pear Blossom bathed in rain under such circumstances?
Zuo Jia didnt notice Lou Zilings gaze. She was still immersed in her past memories. In a soft voice, she told Lou Ziling the secret that she had hidden in her heart for many years.I read all the letters behind your back and burned them one by one. I was afraid that you would fall in love with them again if I gave them to you.
As for you, youve always been a loner, so its normal that you dont reply to girls. Thats why no one suspects me! This is the worst thing Ive ever done. Every time I burn a letter, I feel both happy and ashamed. I feel that no one can get you, but I also feel that Ive made an unforgivable mistake.
If Lou Ziling still couldnt understand what Zuo Jia meant, he would be an idiot.
Dont say anymore. Your face is already swollen. Save your strength. Well be at the hospital soon.
Zuo Jia couldnt help but touch her own face and let out a low cry,Did I be a pigs head? Im definitely ugly, so dont look at me.
Lou Ziling didnt say anything but kept looking at her to make sure that she was still conscious.
Some peoples allergic reactions were too serious, and they would go into shock or even die very quickly.
If Zuo Jia died here, Zuo Yan and the entire Zuo family would not let him go.
When they arrived at the hospital, Zuo Jia didnt even have the strength to talk, let alone walk.
Lou Ziling carried her all the way to the emergency room. The doctor quickly gave her an anti-allergy medicine, asked her a few questions, and then made Zuo Jia vomit.
The doctor was busy for more than half an hour. When he saw that Zuo Jias condition had stabilized, he breathed a sigh of relief. Youre allergic to seafood. Didnt you know that before? Youre not allowed to eat it again next time!
Thank you, doctor, but I wont eat it again, Zuo Jia smiled at the doctor apologetically.
After the doctor left, Lou Ziling stood in front of Zuo Jias bed and asked her in an indifferent voice,You should know that you are allergic to seafood, right? Why didnt you tell me when we were eating?
Chapter 1622
Chapter 1622: Selfish
Trantor: 549690339
Zuo Jia was a little embarrassed by his question. She rarely did such a stupid thing. However, he was Lou Ziling. She couldnt control herself and did something bad again.
But this time, she was the one who was tormented.
Youre doing this on purpose, arent you? is it fun to joke around with your life?
Lou Zilings tone was filled with anger, but Zuo Jia didnt feel sad. Instead, she felt happy.
She pulled Lou Zilings sleeve and smiled.Dont be angry. Im fine. Ill be fine tomorrow.
Lou Ziling nced at her and slowly pulled her sleeve out of her hand.If anything happens to you here, Mayor Zuo will vent all his anger on me. If you don t, you can do whatever you want.
His meaning was already very clear. He was not worried about her health. He was only worried that Zuo Yan would make things difficult for him.
No, my father wont know. I wont tell him.
The sleeve in Zuo Jias hand was pulled away. She retracted her hand with some disappointment, but she quickly adjusted her emotions and looked at Lou Ziling with an eager gaze.Can you keep mepany at the hospital tonight? Im a little scared to live here alone.
Lou Ziling nodded.
Even if Zuo Jia didnt say anything, he would still be here to guard her.
A weak girl lying on the hospital bed, if something dangerous happened, she would not be able to resist.
Since Lou Ziling had brought her out, she would definitely send her back safely.
Zuo Jia was different from Li Jing. She was so simple-minded that anyone could see through her.
She had deliberately eaten seafood and triggered her allergic symptoms so that she could stay with him for a while longer.
Lou Ziling knew what she was thinking, but he would not respond to her no matter what.
He had clearly told Zuo Jia that he had a fiance!
The ward in the county hospital was a little shabby, and it was almost the worst ce Zuo Jia had ever stayed in, but she felt that everything was fine.
She fixed her eyes on Lou Ziling, who was sitting on the chair and leaning against the wall with his eyes closed. She wanted to engrave his face in her mind.
Lou Zilings appearance did not change much, but his facial features were more developed. His eyebrows were slightly raised and his nose bridge was high. He looked cold and handsome.
The adult Lou Ziling ovepped with the Lou Ziling in Zuo Jias memory. That night, she felt as if she had returned to her middle school days. She became the deskmate of the most handsome boy in the school. Her heart was beating fast.
She knew that Lou Ziling was not asleep, but she did not dare to talk to her.
His strong and cold aura could always extinguish her courage.
Zuo Jia was a little regretful that she had eaten too much for dinner. She didnt like to waste food, so she had eaten all the crystal shrimp. As a result, her allergic reaction was quite serious, and she must be very ugly now.
She had heard that his fiance, Jing Xi, was a top beauty, but she had never seen her in person.
Zuo Jia wanted to know what kind of girl Lou Ziling would like.
She felt a little strange. Why was Lou Ziling busy all day and night, but his fiance was not with him?
Wasnt she worried that Lou Ziling would be snatched away by another woman?
There were countless questions in Zuo Jias mind, but she was smart enough not to ask any of them.
Whenever she thought about Lou Ziling having a fiance, she would feel sad and could not ask any questions about Jing Xi.
The night passed, and Zuo Jia barely closed her eyes.
She kept looking at Lou Ziling, afraid that if she missed today, she would never see him show his true face again.
Lou Ziling was sitting on a chair, but she fell asleep due to exhaustion.
When he opened his eyes in the morning, he found himself covered with a thin nket.
He nced at Zuo Jia, but didnt say anything. Then he went to the bathroom to wash his face with cold water.
She was a meticulous girl, and also a girl that he had to stay away from.
Lou Ziling was afraid that Jing Xi would misunderstand her feelings if she knew.
Zuo Jias allergic symptoms had been reduced a lot. Except for some red spots on her body, she was fine.
She waited for Lou Ziling to finish washing her face and then went to the bathroom to wash up.
She raised her head and saw a smiling face in the mirror. She didnt want to smile, but she couldnt hide the joy and joy in her heart.
One day, she could even share the same bathroom with Lou Ziling!
Zuo Jia slowly washed her face. When she saw that her skin had be smooth again, she quietly let out a sigh of relief.
Lou Ziling finished the discharge procedures for Zuo Jia and took her to have breakfast.
There werent many people in the morning. Lou Ziling was afraid that Zuo Jia would get an allergic reaction again, so she didnt order anything like sea cucumber soup or kelp soup. She just ordered corn porridge.
Are you allergic to anything else other than seafood?
No, I can eat anything else.
Zuo Jias voice was low. She felt embarrassed about her behaviorst night.
She had caused Lou Ziling to not rest well the entire night. She felt that she was a little selfish.
While they were eating, Zuo Jia was silent.
Lou Ziling wouldnt try to start a conversation, so he felt more at ease when Zuo Jia didnt say anything.
The two of them had breakfast and returned to the hotel. When Lou Ziling came out of the room again, he was already in a wheelchair. He had put on a mask and disguised himself.
Zuo Jia didnt care about his refusal. She pushed his wheelchair and left the hotel with him to thepany.
Jing Xi and tan Ruyi flew to the United States.
Tan Ruyi was a little nervous. It was Jing Xi who gave her the courage to go to Luo Feiyang, but she still felt that her hope was slim even after she arrived in the United States
The gap between her and Luo Feiyang was too big. She was also a timid person. The thought of facing Luo Feiyangs parents made her panic.
Xixi, will this work? If I go to the Luo family, will Feiyangs parents kick me out?
Dont worry, Jing Xi said confidently.Ill go with you. They wont chase us away!
If tan Ruyi had gone to the United States alone, she might have been driven out before she could see Luo Feiyang. But Jing Xi knew that the Luo family would give the Jing family face. If she brought tan Ruyi there, Luo Feiyangs parents would definitely treat her well.
The ne flew for more than ten hours, and Jing Xis phone was turned off. She had no idea when Lou Ziling called her.
She didnt pay much attention to her phone. It felt good to go on a long journey. She felt rxed and happy. She was confident that Lou Ziling would be fine, so she put Lou Ziling aside for the time being.
She brought her ownptop and connected it to the wirelesswork on the ne. She looked for a ce to have fun with tan Ruyi.
Tan Ruyi hit it off with her and chattered with her about where to eat, where to stay, and where to tour.
Luo Feiyang, on the other hand, was so anxious that he couldnt even eat when he knew that tan Ruyi and Jing Xi wereing.
Chapter 1623
Chapter 1623: Thepetition
Trantor: 549690339
Luo Feiyang couldnt reach them, so he called Lou Ziling.
The call went through, and a gentle female voice came from the other end.Hello, how are you?
Luo Feiyang was stunned. He quickly took out his phone and looked at the number.
Thats right, it was Lou Zilings number!
Isnt this Lou Zilings phone?Luo Feiyang asked with doubt.
Yes, its his, Zuo Jia quickly replied.He left his phone with me. Is there anything you need from him?
Luo Feiyang couldnt be bothered to look for Lou Ziling anymore. He frowned and asked,Who are you? Why is he holding Lou Zilings phone?
My surname is Zuo. I guess I can be considered a friend of Lou Ziling. Are you his friend too?
Luo Feiyang snorted coldly.Im not his friend. Im his fiances friend! Im warning you, Lou Ziling is already engaged. Stay away from him, or I wont be polite!
He didnt care what the rtionship between the person on the other end of the phone and Lou Ziling was. He just wanted to threaten her.
His arrogant and domineering nature had not been exposed for a long time, so he was quite impolite when he shouted at people.
However, Zuo Jia was not tan Ruyi. Although her voice was gentle, she had grown up in a wealthy family and was not a girl who could be bullied.
Luo Feiyangs attitude made Zuo Jia A little angry. She had wanted to rify her rtionship with Lou Ziling but now she didnt want to exin anything.
Sir, is there any legal effect on the engagement? Even if they were married, there were countless people who were divorced. Could they turn a blind eye to their fianc after getting engaged? Ive been with Ziling for a few days now, but I havent seen his fiance!
Zuo Jias voice was still gentle, but her tone wasnt so polite anymore.
She was the mayors daughter, her grandfather was the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and her grandfather was a general in the Army. Few people dared to bully her from such a prominent family.
The only person who could bully her was Lou Ziling.
However, Lou Ziling was very polite to her. He didnt even break the ice to avoid embarrassment.
If your friend, miss Jing, doesnt cherish Lou Ziling, whats wrong with me loving him? I wont leave Lou Ziling. Ill always be by his side. If your friend doesnt want him anymore, remember to tell me. Im willing to marry him and be with him for the rest of my life!
Luo Feiyang was furious. He wanted to curse a little more, but the phone had already hung up. The other party had actually hung up!
He was so angry that he almost dropped his phone. However, when he calmed down, he suddenly realized that the other party was talking about Lou Ziling, not Li Xiao!
She had mentioned Jing Xi. She knew that Lou Ziling was engaged to Jing Xi!
In other words, she knew Lou Zilings double identity!
Luo Feiyangs expression became serious. Lou Ziling and Jing Xi had kept it from almost everyone. Only their closest rtives knew about Lou Zilings identity.
Was this woman already very close to Lou Ziling?
Luo Feiyang called Jing Xi anxiously, but both her and tan Ruyis phones were turned off. He couldnt find them even if he wanted to.
Lou Ziling realized that she had lost her phone half an hour after Luo Feiyang and Zuo Jias conversation.
He drove back to Zuo Jias house to get his phone. Zuo Jia seemed to know that he woulde back, and was already waiting for him at the door.
Thanks to Zuo Jias care, he was able to meet the Mayor, Zuo Yan, at Zuo Jias house.
At the same time, he had also witnessed Zuo Yans love and pampering for Zuo Jia. Zuo Yan even spoke bluntly,As long as his daughter was happy, he was willing to do anything.
Zuo Jia lived alone in her own house, which was located in a beautiful resort in the suburbs.
In order to show his integrity, Zuo Yan had brought his wife to live in an ordinary residential area, but he could not bear to let his daughter suffer. He had specially bought her a vi and sent servants and bodyguards to take care of her daily life.
But in fact, Zuo Jia didnt need anyone to take care of her. She was a good cook, and she cooked by herself almost every day.
She asked Lou Ziling to meet Zuo Yan and she made dinner by herself.
Zuo Jia was standing at the door of the vi in her slippers. When she saw Lou Ziling driving over, she handed him his phone.Ziling, I want to apologize to you first.
Lou Ziling took the phone and asked calmly,Whats wrong?
I shouldnt have picked up your private phone call.
Zuo Jias voice was very soft.You didnt save the other partys number, so I thought it was a call from your colleague, so I picked up. I didnt expect him to be a friend of your fiance.
Lou Ziling frowned. Ji moxuan? Or Luo Feiyang?
He turned on his phone and looked at his call history. It was Luo Feiyang.
Things might be a little bad. Luo Feiyang loved to gossip. He could probably make up a lot of stories about him and Zuo Jia in an instant. Would Jing Xi misunderstand?
He dialed Jing Xis number in front of Zuo Jia, but she still didnt pick up.
Miss Zuo, please dont answer my calls in the future.
In fact, Zuo Jia was a little regretful. She had been too impulsive and said something she shouldnt have. She didnt know if she would implicate Lou Ziling.
I might have said something unpleasant, but your fiances friend was very blunt. I couldnt help but argue with him.
Lou Ziling knew very well that Zuo Jia and Luo Feiyang were not just bickering, but it was meaningless for him to argue about it.
He didnt stay long at Zuo Jias ce and returned to the manor.
The manor was deserted. Lou Ziling walked alone in the lonely pine and cypress forest. He felt that it would be good if Jing Xi was by his side.
She was so cruel to throw him away.
He wasnt used to her appearing every day when she was by his side, but he was already used to her running out to cause trouble when she was by his side.
He thought about it and sent a text message to Jing Xi, hoping that she would see the message as soon as she got off the ne and give him a call.
However, Lou Ziling did not receive a call from Jing Xi until the next morning. When he called, Jing Xis phone was either turned off or the line was blocked.
He couldnt help but smile bitterly. Now, Jing Xi must be angry and deliberately ignored his call.
Lou Ziling ate her breakfast quickly and went to thepany absent-mindedly.
Zuo Jia had arrived earlier than him. She was wearing a Lake Green dress and followed Lou Ziling into his office.
She ced a thick stack of documents on Lou Zilings desk and said softly,These are all the projects that yourpany has submitted to the government for the past two years. Ive gotten the approval for you. You can start work on these projects now.
Her expression was calm, as if she was talking about a trivial matter.
Lou Ziling slowly walked to her side and said in a serious tone,Many thanks!
These projects were originally under Li Jings control. Her power in the government was deeply rooted, and many people did not believe that she was dead. They were still loyal to her and refused to cooperate with Lou Ziling.
What Zuo Jia had done was equivalent to clearing countless obstacles for him, and his prestige would be raised to an unprecedented level.
Chapter 1624
Chapter 1624: Zuo Jia
Trantor: 549690339
Zuo Jia didnt take credit for it, but said apologetically,I actually wanted to help you do all these things, but I was afraid that after I helped you, I would no longer be of any value to you. You might ignore me in the future, so I kept dying it.
Her words were so direct that Lou Ziling didnt know how to respond.
Zuo Jia didnt want him to answer, so she continued,I received a private call from you yesterday, and Im afraid it might cause you trouble, so I helped you with all these thingsst night.
Lou Ziling suddenly understood. No wonder Zuo Jia looked so tired and her eyes were bloodshot. She had stayed up all night.
However, if it was someone else, they would not be able to do it even if they did not sleep for a few days.
This couldnt be measured by money, and it waspletely due to Zuo Jias family power.
Lou Ziling was a person who would take revenge for any grudge and repay any kindness. Since Zuo Jia had helped him, he could no longer treat her coldly.
Miss Zuo, if youre willing, I can consider mypany as a part of your investment, and Ill give you a bonus every year.
Zuo Jia knew what Lou Ziling meant. He didnt want to owe her a favor. He just wanted to use money to get rid of her.
It was impossible for her not to be sad. However, she knew that Lou Ziling had a fiance. At most, she could only be friends with her.
It was better to be friends than strangers, wasnt it?
Okay, Ill invest, but I have a condition.
What condition?
I want to work at yourpany.
Dont you work for the government? Being a civil servant is a job that everyone is envious of. Even if you donte to work for me, I will still give you a bonus every month.
My whole family are civil servants. To me, this job is not much different from any other job. Besides, the sry of a civil servant is really not high! In yourpany, there are a lot of people with an annual sry of hundreds of thousands of Yuan, but a civil servant only gets a few thousand Yuan a month.
Zuo Jia chuckled. Of course, she didnte to work for money.
She just wanted to be closer to Lou Ziling.
She didnt do anything every day. It was good to see him.
Alright, if you want toe, youre always wee!
Thank you! Zuo Jia said with a smile.
She took her bag and left thepany to resign from the government.
When Zuo Yan learned that his daughter was resigning, he quickly went to his daughters office.Jiajia, whats wrong? Are you not happy doing it here? Did someone bully you? You didnt tell her that youre my daughter?
The mayor nagged a lot, afraid that his precious daughter would be wronged.
He never abused his power for personal gain, but if anyone dared to bully Zuo Jia, he would use his power to ruthlessly teach the other party a lesson.
He was the only son of the Zuo family, and Zuo Jias mother, Xi Ying, was the only child of the XI family. Zuo Jia was the only descendant of the Zuo and Xi families, and she had been pampered since she was a child, afraid that she would break or melt in her mouth.
However, Zuo Jia had been sensible since she was a child, and she never needed her family to worry about her.
The only time she had made a request to her family was when she was in middle school. She had asked for a change of seat. She felt that her deskmate was too noisy and unkempt, so she had asked for a quiet and clean deskmate.
So, after three days of discussion, the Zuo familys elders and the XI familys elders finally came to an agreement. They decided to let Zuo Jia be reced by a quiet, smart, and handsome boy to take care of Lou Ziling.
Later, Zuo Yan was transferred to another city to be the Deputy Mayor. Zuo Jia followed him and transferred to another school. That was why she did not continue to be Lou Zilings deskmate.
Daddy, no one is bullying me. I just want to change the environment and go to a bigpany to gain some experience. Dont you support me?
Zuo Jiaughed and acted coquettishly. Zuo Yan immediatelyughed.Of course I support you. Where do you work? Im going to talk to your boss and ask him to take good care of you!
Zuo Jiaughed.Am I going to work for them or be their boss? after you say hello, they might not let me do any work. Then I wont be able to learn anything useful!
She didnt want her father to put pressure on Lou Ziling. She was in a good state now. She was neither too close nor too far from Lou Ziling. He didnt like her, but he didnt hate her either. That was enough.
However, after Zuo Jia packed her things and left, Zuo Yan immediately sent someone to investigate.
A momentter, she found out that Zuo Jia had gone to Li Xiaospany to be in charge of the public rtions work. Li Xiao had given her an annual sry of 300000 Yuan, plus shares dividends.
Zuo Yan immediately reported the situation to Zuo Jias grandfather and grandfather. The Zuo family and Xi family then investigated Li Xiao thoroughly.
With the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the General of the Army working together, as well as Zuo Yan, the mayor of city W, the fact that Li Xiao was Lou Ziling could not be hidden at all.
After that, Zuo Yan was scolded by his father and father-inw!
Zuo Jia had never cared so much about anyone before. Now, it was obvious that she liked Lou Ziling, but Zuo Yan, as her father, didnt realize it.
Elder Xi was too embarrassed to scold Nuwa too harshly, but elder Zuo was not so polite to his own son. He said,with that brain of yours, its your limit to be the mayor!
Zuo Jia waspletely unaware of the bloody storm at home. She drove her brand-new white Jaguar and started working for Lou Ziling.
However, Lou Ziling still rarely talked to her. Besides working, he would call Jing Xi the rest of the time.
Jing Xi didnt answer his phone, so he sent her messages one after another.
Every time Zuo Jia went to Lou Zilings office, she would see him sending messages to Jing Xi.
She looked at Lou Ziling and her heart ached.
Ziling, if you trust me, give me your fiances number. Ill call her and exin.
Lou Ziling hesitated for a while, but still gave her Jing Xis number.
Zuo Jia went back to her office and called Jing Xi with her phone.
Jing Xi didnt pick up the first two times, but the call finally went through on the third call.
Zuo Jias voice was a little soft,miss Jing, nice to meet you! Im Zuo Jia. I hope you dont misunderstand Lou Ziling. Its just my own wishful thinking. He has always been devoted to you and has never changed his heart.
There was no sound from the other end of the phone for a long time. Zuo Jia waited patiently.
This is between me and Lou Ziling, Jing Xi said after a long time.Youd better stay out of it.
Then you should at least answer the phone and give him a chance to exin.
Do I need you to teach me how to do things?
Jing Xi said angrily and then hung up the phone with a cold face.
She stood in front of the window of a hotel, feeling a little annoyed.
She felt that she had made a mistake again. She should not have left Lou Ziling for too long!
She left in a fit of pique. Now that her anger had subsided, she understood why Lou Ziling refused to help tan Ruyi and Luo Feiyang.
She was often emotional, but Lou Ziling had always been rational.
She kind of wanted to go back to China.

Jing Xi was still hesitating. The next day, she went to the Luo family with tan Ruyi again. Luo Feiyangs parents were still very warm to them, but they didnt let Luo Feiyang show up at all. Their words were also very clear that they would not agree to the marriage between Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyi.
When they returned to the hotel that night, tan Ruyi hid in her room and cried. Jing Xi was also in her room, racking her brains.
The situation was very tricky. Luo Feiyangs parents were very smart. They said that they treated tan Ruyi like their daughter. She was Lou ruofeis cousin, Luo feilies cousin, and also Luo Feiyangs cousin. How could cousins get married?
Jing Xi looked at the messages that Lou Ziling had sent her and suddenly realized that she had been too busy minding other peoples business to remember how many days she had been away from Lou Ziling.
It must have been half a month, right? Or a month?
She didnt think much of it during the first few days when they were apart. She even felt that it was fun to be free. Lou Ziling nervously called her every day, which was very refreshing to her.
However, Zuo Jias appearance gave her a sense of crisis.
From Lou Zilings messages, she knew the whole story. She knew that they used to be ssmates and deskmates.
To be honest, Jing Xi didnt think Zuo Jia was a bad person. However, it was precisely because she was a good girl that the possibility of Lou Ziling falling in love with her was higher. This made her feel more threatened.
If Zuo Jia was like Li Jing or Wu Wei, Jing Xi wouldnt have to worry.
Lou Ziling had a lot of experience in the world. He could tell the good and bad of a girl at a nce.
Jing Xi wanted to pack her things and return to China, but she couldnt leave before tan Ruyis matter was resolved.
She had promised tan Ruyi that she would help her settle Luo Feiyangs parents.
There was a knock on the door. Jing Xi thought it was tan Ruyi, but when she opened the door, it was Lou Ziling, who was covered in dust.
Lou Ziling walked into Jing Xis room and closed the door. He looked down at Jing Xi and said,If I didnte, would you have never nned to go home? Or are you saying that you wont go back until Ruyis matter is resolved?
Lou Zilings handsome face was full of fatigue. Perhaps it was because he hadnt had a good rest for a few days and didnt have time to clean himself up. There was a short stubble on his chin. He hadnt shaved for at least two days.
In the past, Jing Xi had alwaysined that his beard would prick her face, and Lou Ziling would always clean himself up. He had never not shaved for two or three days.
Xixi, Im not forcing you toe home with me. I just want to tell you two things. First, theres nothing going on between me and Zuo Jia. I dont like her. Second, Ruyis mother doesnt agree to her marrying into the Luo family, and I dont agree either.
Lou Ziling hugged Jing Xi and said in a hoarse voice,Im leaving. Ill wait for you toe home.
He really opened the door and left without even looking back.
He had crossed the mountains and seas and flown for more than ten hours to the United States just to say a few words.
Lou Ziling took a taxi and went straight to the airport. He called tan Ruyi,Your mother doesnt support you and Luo Feiyang. Give her a call and she said you didnt pick up. If you dont pick up your mothers call again, Ill kill Luo Feiyang!
Tan Ruyi was already crying, but when she heard Lou Zilings angry and murderous words, she was so scared that her tears flowed even faster.
She wanted to exin to Lou Ziling, but she couldnt say a word.
Lou Ziling didnt have time to listen to her cry. She hung up the phone and boarded the ne.
Zuo Jia hadnt seen Lou Ziling for two days. She asked Lou Zilings assistant, but the only reply she got was,the president is on a business trip.
She asked her friend in the airline to check and found out that Lou Ziling had gone to the United States.
His flight time showed that he had only stayed in the United States for a few dozen minutes.
This couldnt be a business trip.
He came and went in such a hurry, was he going to meet someone?
Zuo Jia felt that Jing Xi was probably the only person who could make Lou Zi and Ling Fei spend more than ten hours to see her.
But she didnt understand why they had only stayed for such a short time.
Even though Lou Ziling was not in thepany, Zuo Jia was still serious about her work.
She realized that thepanys public rtions were quite weak. Some people seemed to only recognize Li Jing and not Li Xiao.
This was very normal. Li Xiao had appeared out of nowhere, so it was normal for people to suspect his identity.
Zuo Jia sorted out all these messy rtionships. She had grown up in a political family, so she was very familiar with dealing with interpersonal rtionships.
Other people might not know her name, but once Zuo Yan was mentioned, everyone in W city would know her.
Her grandfather, Zuo Tang, was even more famous and had great prestige.
Those who had wanted to make things difficult for Lou Ziling all gave face to Zuo Jia and admitted Lou Zilings identity. They cooperated and handed over the control of the Li familys assets.
Lou Ziling arrived at the airport in city Wte at night. He did not want to go back to the manor. He would not call home anywhere without Jing Xi. He went straight to thepany.
It was veryte and all the employees had left work. The entire floor was empty. Only Lou Zilings footsteps could be heard in the corridor.
On his way back to his office, he had to pass by Zuo Jias office. When he saw that the light was on, he thought that she had forgotten to turn it off.
He walked in to turn off the lights, but saw Zuo Jia sleeping on a thick pile of materials.
Lou Ziling stared at her beautiful face under the light. She didnt know what attracted her to Zuo Jia that made her work so hard.
He was clearly not here today, so she could ck off.
Everyone else had already gone home, but she, the mayors daughter, had worked overtime untilte at night and had fallen asleep on the table.
Mayor Zuo would be heartbroken if he knew about this.
Zuo Jia!
Get up, Lou Ziling called her in a low voice,go home and sleep.
He patted Zuo Jias shoulder and she woke up in a daze. When she looked up and saw Lou Ziling, she thought she was dreaming.
Recently, she had been dreaming about Lou Ziling every night. At this moment, she could not tell whether it was a dream or reality.
She touched Lou Zilings face and mumbled,Huh? he didnt Dodge. It seems like hes dreaming.
He would only stop hiding when she touched Lou Ziling in his dreams. In reality, he always kept a distance from her and did not even let her touch the corner of his clothes. Lou Ziling wasnt wearing a mask at the moment. She was showing her original appearance. He would never not wear a mask in thepany.
Lou Ziling sighed in her heart as she looked at her confused face.
It wasnt that he didnt want to hide, but he didnt expect Zuo Jia to touch his face.
After spending a few days with her, he realized that Zuo Jia was a clean freak. He thought that Zuo Jia wouldnt touch his unkempt face.
Dont work sote in the future. Lets go, Ill send you home.
Lou Ziling turned around and walked out.
Zuo Jia didnt wake up until Lou Ziling left the office.
She pped her face hard in disbelief.Youre not dreaming?

Zuo Jia was sitting in Lou Zilings car. She didnt tell him that she was driving today.
What if Lou Ziling didnt send her back after she told her?
Have you been on a business trip for the past two days?
Zuo Jia tried to find a topic and asked the obvious.
She didnt expect Lou Ziling to be so disdainful of lying. She said,Im not on a business trip. I went to look for my fiance.
Zuo Jia was a little ashamed. She felt that all her good moral character seemed to have disappeared in front of Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling was so honest that she was embarrassed to ask further.
You look very tired. You should rest well. You seem to be working hard. Also, you should spend more time with your fiance. Wherever she goes, you should follow. Otherwise, she might think that you dont care about her.
Even though her heart was bleeding, Zuo Jia still gave the most sincere advice with a smile.
She hadnt seen Lou Ziling smile for the past few days. She was as cold as a robot.
Zuo Jia couldnt stand Lou Zilings behavior, but she couldnt make him smile. The only person who could make him feel better was probably his fiance.
Lou Ziling nced at Zuo Jia without saying anything.
It was not a matter ofpany between him and Jing Xi, but a difference in their views on life.
Jing Xi loved to help others and enjoyed the bustle, while he was cold and indifferent and liked loneliness.
This difference had always existed, and it had once caused them to be separated for more than two years.
Lou Ziling didnt reply. Zuo Jia asked hesitantly,Is it because of me?
Youre just a fuse.
Lou Ziling said calmly. He knew very well that even without Zuo Jia, Jing Xi would not havee back.
With Zuo Jia around, Jing Xi might still be in a hurry toe back, if she really cared about him.
Lou Ziling sent Zuo Jia home and checked into the hotel opposite thepany.
He slowly washed his face with cold water, then used the hotels disposable razor to shave off the stubble on his chin. After taking a shower and cleaning himself up, hey on the bed and fell asleep.
He fell asleep faster at the hotel than at home because when he was at home, his mind was filled with Jing Xi. Her traces were everywhere in the house, but when she was not there, he felt empty.
A weekter, Jing Xi did note back, but Zuo Jia had taken a leave.
Luo Feiyang had not been able to meet tan Ruyi, but his parents had arranged for him to go on blind dates.
On Saturday evening, Luo Feiyang met his seventh blind date partner. This was the girl that his parents were most satisfied with. It was also the most serious blind date. His parents were there, but they were sitting far away from him.
Luo Feiyang acted like a bossy and domineering second generation,Im Luo Feiyang. Whats your name, beautiful?
My surname is Zuo, and my name is Zuo Jia. Im sure Mr. Luo remembers the phone call we had before!
Luo Feiyang sat up straight and said through gritted teeth,Its you?
The voice was very familiar, and he had heard Zuo Jias name from Jing Xi. But he had never expected that Zuo Jia would be his blind date partner!
Its me.
Zuo Jias voice was gentle, but her expression was a little indifferent. Her expression and voice formed a strong contrast, making it difficult for people to judge whether she was happy or not.
Ill give you two options. One, marry me and break tan Ruyis thoughts so that Jing Xi can return to Lou Zilings side as soon as possible. Second, you marry tan Ruyi and I marry Lou Ziling.
Luo Feiyang was dumbfounded as he looked at the gentle and generous Zuo Jia, who had the same temperament as Lou ruofei. He cried out,Are you crazy?
His voice was so loud that his parents turned to look at him and gave him a warning look, indicating that he should be gentler to the girl.
Im not crazy. Whether its you or Lou Ziling, Im worthy of both of you with my family. I suggest you choose the first path, its good for everyone.
Other than her.
Luo Feiyangs eyes were wide open as he looked at Zuo Jia in a daze. Wouldnt she be sacrificing her own happiness by choosing the first path? Didnt she like Lou Ziling to death?
She was willing to marry a stranger for Lou Ziling?
This was clearly crazy!
Before the blind date, Luo Yi had already told Luo Feiyang about Zuo Jias family background and warned him not to offend Zuo Jia even if he was not sessful.
She had a strong background and countless people wanted to marry her. The fact that she was willing toe for a blind date made the two elders of the Zuo and Xi families extremely happy.
I wont marry a woman I dont like. Ill marry tan Ruyi for sure. You may not be able to marry Lou Ziling!
Luo Feiyang finally came back to his senses and thought that Zuo Jia was bragging.
You can also marry tan Ruyi, but the process is too long. Your parents wont agree to it for at least two years. Miss Jing might stay here and not go home. If that happens, Lou Ziling will be too lonely in city W. I might do bad things because I feel bad for him.
Pfft, what bad things can you do?
Its very simple. Lou Ziling is very guarded against me now. If I give him a cup of drugged coffee, he wont be able to tell if Im Zuo Jia or Jing Xi. If he doesnt take responsibility after he takes me, my Grandpa and Grandpa will not let him live.
You told me about this conspiracy. Arent you afraid that I will tell Lou Ziling?
Im afraid you wont tell Lou Ziling.
Zuo Jias voice was gentle, and even her eyes were gentle. Youd better tell him everything we said. Ive done so much for him, and Im too embarrassed to tell him. Its best if someone else tells him.
Youve said so much just to get Jing Xi back to China, right?
Luo Feiyang finally realized Zuo Jias motive, but he couldnt understand. Zuo Jia liked Lou Ziling, but Jing Xi wasnt with Lou Ziling. Wouldnt she be able to take advantage of this?
If Jing Xi went back, there would be no ce for her!
Not only will you let Jing Xi return to China, but I also need you to exin my rtionship with Lou Ziling. We are just friends. Lou Ziling has never fallen for any other woman.
Its not up to me whether shesing back or not! It was Jing Xi who insisted oning, so its useless for me to drive her away.
Thats why I suggest you choose the first option. After you marry me, tan Ruyi will give up, and Jing Xi will not want to destroy your family again, so she will naturally return to China.
This wont do!
Luo Feiyang shook his head.If I marry you, Ruyi will be heartbroken. What if she takes her own life?
You can choose the second option, Zuo Jia said calmly.Ill help you marry tan Ruyi, and youll help me keep Jing Xi here. Dont let here back. Ill marry Lou Ziling.
Luo Feiyang was almost driven crazy by Zuo Jia. He couldnt help but roar,Her family name is Jing and she is a member of family Jing. Do you want to go against family Jing?
Chapter 1627
Chapter 1627: Going home
Trantor: 549690339
Im not afraid. Ive been following the rules all my life. Ive always been obedient and sensible. My grandfather oftenined that Im too sensible, and his power is useless. I think Grandpa will be in high spirits when he goes against family Jing. He will think that he has met an interesting opponent and will do his best!
Zuo Jias eyes lit up at the mention of her grandfather and grandfather.
Luo Feiyang looked at the two shallow dimples that were revealed because of her smile and suddenly realized that Zuo Jia was a beauty through and through.
He had long heard that the new mayor of W city, Zuo Yan, was a famous handsome man. It seemed that Zuo Jia had inherited her parents advantages, and the creators preference for her was too obvious!
No wonder her parents had been praising Zuo Jia before the blind date. So far, it seemed that Luo Feiyang hadnt found any ws in her.
Maybe the only bad thing was that he liked Lou Ziling?
Luo Feiyang had a splitting headache. He had not even settled his own matters, and now Zuo Jia had appeared. Now, Lou Ziling and Jing Xi were also in danger. He wished he could just die!
Why did big brother marry Lou ruofei so smoothly?
Well, miss Zuo, dont get involved in this. After my parents see you, they will not let me marry Ruyi! Im begging you, you have to tell them that you dont like me! If I say that Im not interested in you, Ill definitely beat you up when I get home. My brothers beating is quite painful, and its worse than death!
It depends on your performance. If Jing Xi returns to the country today, Ill say that I dont like you. If she doesnt return, Ill say that Ill marry no one but you.
Please don t. Can you at least give me a few days to persuade her? If Jing Xi was so easy to talk to, she would have gone back a long time ago if Lou Ziling had called for her!
Zuo Jia slowly finished the food on her te and said in a low voice,Alright, Ill give you two days. Ill wait for your good news.
After she finished eating, she took her bag and left. Luo Feiyang was immediately surrounded by his parents.
What do you think? this girls character, appearance, and family background are all first-ss. If you still dont like her, then its your problem!
If you think its okay, then hurry up and settle it. Well get the marriage certificate first, and well hold the weddingter!
Luo Feiyang didnt know whether to be angry orugh. His parents had already gone to all lengths to stop him from marrying tan Ruyi. They had only met him once, and they wanted him to get a marriage certificate. Were they kidding?
He stammered and didnt say if it was a good or bad idea, but his parents felt that Zuo Jia was the most suitable candidate, so they didnt arrange any boring blind dates for him.
Luo Feiyang realized that Zuo Jia was the best shield. He even had enough reason to go out.
The first thing Luo Feiyang did when he was able to leave the house was to look for tan Ruyi.
Tan Ruyi was with Jing Xi. When they saw Luo Feiyang, they were both stunned.
Thanks to Zuo Jia, I made an excuse to meet her today, and my parents finally let me go out!
Which Zuo Jia? Jing Xi frowned. Shes in America? Didnt he go out with Lou Ziling in city W?
Xixi, dont worry about me and Ruyi. Go back to China! If he didnt go back, Lou Ziling would be taken away by Zuo Jia! I just met Zuo Jia yesterday. Shes an impable beauty and she loves Lou Ziling deeply. Shes willing to sacrifice anything for him. Hurry back to the country and dont let her take advantage of you!
Jing Xi closed her eyes and suppressed the chaos in her heart. Shes fine?
Very good! Luo Feiyang said directly.
Although the first time he had called Zuo Jia, it had been very unpleasant, Luo Feiyangs impression of Zuo Jia hadpletely changed after this meeting.
In his opinion, Zuo Jia was enough to be a strong rival of Jing Xi!
When he first pursued Jing Xi, he had a headache because she was too opinionated and too flirtatious. When he met a well-behaved girl like tan Ruyi, he soon fell in love with her.
Zuo Jia was gentle, generous, and had a strong background. She was actually a very suitable marriage partner.
Jing Xi was triggered by Luo Feiyangs very good. Luo Feiyang had had many girlfriends before. If he said very good, then he really meant it.
Tan Ruyi didnt say a word. She just leaned gently in Luo Feiyangs arms. She wasnt jealous when he said that Zuo Jia was good.
This was because Luo Feiyang would often praise others, but he was just saying it. He would never be moved by others.
The person Zuo Jia liked was Lou Ziling, so it was even more impossible for Luo Feiyang to have feelings for her.
Tan Ruyi had a high EQ in this area. She knew that Luo Feiyang would not say anything bad to her when he finally came to see her. He would just lean on Him quietly, regardless of whether the future was bright or dark.
Her original intention was to give up on Luo Feiyang. The Luo family didnt agree to their marriage, and her family didnt agree either.
It was Jing Xi who had encouraged her and taken her to the Luo family again and again.
Xixi, you should go back to China. Dont let me hold you back.
Jing Xi didnt agree at first, but Luo Feiyang and tan Ruyi were the only ones sticking together the whole day, and she was practically the third wheel.
The next day, she finally packed her things and flew back to city W.
She hadnt been away for long, but it felt like a lifetime had passed when she returned to the manor.
Lou Ziling had already received Luo Feiyangs message. He stood in front of the antique building in the manor and watched Jing Xi walk towards him with a calm face.
It seemed that she had only gone out to y for a day and had gone home after she was tired.
Lou Ziling took the suitcase from Jing Xis hand and entered the small building. He put the suitcase in the corner and said to her lightly,Come and have dinner. Its all your favorite.
Jing Xi did not move. She looked up at Lou Ziling and asked expressionlessly,If I didnte back, would you have married Zuo Jia?
I won t! Lou Ziling replied without even thinking.
Why?
Didnt you say that Ill either marry you in this life or die alone?
Lou Ziling took Jing Xis hand and led her to the table.But Im very grateful to her. Luo Feiyang said that if it wasnt for her, you might not havee back. She broke the ice with Luo Feiyang and gave you pressure. Thats why I could wait for you so long.
But I dont like her, Jing Xi said softly after a moment of silence.I cant like any of the women who have their eyes on you.
I dont need you to like me.
Lou Zilings voice was calm.But I think you should be able to understand the feeling I had when I saw Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan. Oh, and song Xin! I dont like all the men who covet you either.
Thats not the same! Jing Xi said anxiously.I dont like them! Theyre just ordinary friends!
Whats different? I dont like Zuo Jia either. She cant even be considered as my friend.
But Luo Feiyang said that Zuo Jia is very pretty!
Oh, Ive never told you. Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan are both very good-looking. Song Xin is the nations Prince Charming. His looks can basically crush all men.
Jing Xi suddenly stopped talking. She didnt seem to realize how much Lou Ziling had tolerated her all this time.
Chapter 1628
Chapter 1628: Getting married
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling touched Jing Xis hair.Thats enough. Dont mind Zuo Jias presence. Lets eat!
Jing Xi lowered her head and continued eating. She wanted to apologize but felt that she had done nothing wrong. She wanted to question him but felt that she was being unreasonable.
She was clearly sitting with Lou Ziling, but it felt like they were far apart. It was as if they hadnt seen each other for a century. Even their intimate actions had be distant.
It was not until they went to bed that Lou Ziling held Jing Xi in her arms as usual that she felt better.
The next day, Jing Xi and Lou Ziling went to thepany.
A brand new white Jaguar was already parked in thepanys parking lot. Jing Xis heart was moved. She asked Lou Ziling,Whose car is this?
Zuo Jia s, Lou Ziling replied indifferently.
Jing Xi had guessed that it was hers.
Lou Ziling had always liked Jaguar. The one he was driving now was a ck Jaguar. Zuo Jia had bought a white one. Did she want to be a couple with him? Couple car?
Jing Xi pushed Lou Zilings wheelchair and entered the elevator with him. When they reached the 18th floor, the elevator door opened. Jing Xi pushed Lou Ziling out and was met with a gentle and beautiful girl.
Jing Xi had heard Luo Feiyang describe Zuo Jia before. She was almost sure that the girl in front of her was Zuo Jia. The gentle and elegant feeling she gave off was exactly the same as Lou ruofei s.
Zuo Jia also recognized Jing Xi because Lou Ziling was holding her hand.
Lou Ziling would not touch any other woman except Jing Xi.
Whats more, Luo Feiyang had already called her and told her that he had sessfully persuaded Jing Xi toe home. He could choose neither of the two options that Zuo Jia had given him.
Zuo Jia nodded at them with a smile,Good Morning, President and Madam!
Her smile was impable, and there was nothing wrong with her words. She was neither humble nor arrogant, making her look even more calm and gentle.
Jing Xi knew that she had met her match.
Lou Ziling spat out a word,Morning!
Good Morning, Jing Xi said.
When they reached Lou Zilings office, Jing Xi asked,Is she going to work in thispany from now on?
Yes! Lou Ziling nodded.
Cant you transfer her away?
Not for now. She has done a lot for thepany, and these are things that others cant do. Its normal to give her a position. Dont think too much.
You look at such a beauty every day, how can you not be moved? Even Luo Feiyangplimented her!
Luo Fei praised her. Why dont you marry her?
These These are two different things! Jing Xi was worried about Zuo Jia working for Lou Ziling. What if Lou Ziling was drugged by her?
Yes, thats two different things. Whether shes good looking or not has nothing to do with me marrying you.
Lou Zilings expression was calm. There was no emotion in her eyes.
He was so cold that it seemed like he was talking about someone elses business, and he didnt take Zuo Jia seriously.
If Jing Xi didnt like it, he could have transferred Zuo Jia away.
But now, Lou Ziling wanted to leave Zuo Jia behind. This way, Jing Xi would feel a sense of crisis and would not leave him behind.
Zuo Jia went downstairs and took the documents she had forgotten to bring from the car. Then, she slowly returned to her office.
The moment she saw Jing Xi, she almost couldnt control her tears.
Lou Ziling treated Jing Xipletely differently from others. Even his eyes were gentle when he looked at Jing Xi. He would even take the initiative to hold her hand, not avoiding other peoples eyes.
Perhaps, no matter how much she sacrificed, it was useless?
The Jing familys little princess was indeed worthy of her reputation. She was beautiful and elegant. It was a blessing for Lou Ziling to marry her. She should be happy for Lou Ziling, but why did she want to cry so much?
That day, Zuo Jia didnt work overtime, but left thepany in her car early in the morning.
She thought that she was strong enough and that she could smile as she watched Lou Ziling hug other people and say sweet words to them. But she overestimated herself.
The strongest and most fragile thing was the human heart, and Zuo Jia was so fragile that she couldnt even withstand a single blow.
However, she had personally invited Jing Xi back. No matter how bitter the fruit was, she had to swallow it with a smile.
Perhaps, she would get used to it after a few more times.
However, it turned out that no matter how many times she looked at it, Zuo Jias heart would always be bleeding. It was not something she could get used to.
It was a huge torture for her to see Lou Ziling and Jing Xi together every day.
Lou Ziling and Jing Xis rtionship was getting better and better. Zuo Jia rarely talked to Lou Ziling anymore, so as not to cause misunderstandings between Jing Xi and cause her to quarrel with Lou Ziling.
Even when she went to Lou Zilings office to report the progress of her work, Zuo Jia would bring her assistant with her.
Sometimes, she would see a sh of sharpness and vignce in Jing Xis eyes. From this, she knew that Jing Xi should also love Lou Ziling deeply and was worried that Lou Ziling would be taken away by someone else.
Zuo Jia felt that Jing Xi was overthinking. A man like Lou Ziling was faced with countless temptations every day. He was determined and not greedy for beauty. He could not be taken away.
Unless Jing Xi gave up on herself.
On November 6th, Lou Ziling and Jing Xi held a grand wedding.
Lou Ziling invited Zuo Jia and Mayor Zuo, but Zuo Jia didnt go.
Seeing that his daughter wasnt going, Mayor Zuo also refused to go.
Mayor Zuo didnt go, and none of the other officials of city W dared to go.
Zuo Yan was the mayor of the city, but not everyone else. They always had all kinds of dirt on them. He usually turned a blind eye if they didnt offend Zuo Yan, but if they did, all the evidence would be dug out.
The wedding was held in the Li familys Manor. Lou Zilings parents were there as well, but they were sitting in an inconspicuous ce. Anyway, on such a day, there were countless strangers around, and no one knew each other.
The manor was tidied up, clean, and jubnt, with the word happy written in bright red everywhere.
Lou Ziling took Jing Xis hand from Jing Yichens and took her to the priest. They exchanged rings and made a solemn vow.
They had just gotten their marriage certificate the day before. From now on, they were a real couple, protected and restricted by thew.
It was not until today that Jing Xi realized that she and Lou Ziling had formed a family. She would be Lou Zilings wife from now on.
She was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. She felt very happy. Lou Ziling was the person she had always wanted to marry.
Lou Ziling gently kissed her forehead. He and Jing Xi had not had a smooth journey. Fortunately, they had never given up.
In his life, Jing Xi was the only special one. She had pulled him out of his lonely world and gradually integrated him into the prosperous life.
After the wedding, Lou Ziling took Jing Xi to their honeymoon in the evening.
Jing Xi liked to travel, so Lou Ziling gave herself half a month off to apany her.
Chapter 1629
Chapter 1629: Difficult
Trantor: 549690339
In the past half a month, Zuo Jia had done almost all the work for Lou Ziling.
Zuo Jia was in charge of thepanys operations, the construction of new projects, and personnel changes.
Although there were a few vice presidents in thepany, almost all of them would return in defeat when they had to deal with the government.
Only Zuo Jia could solve the problem.
Zuo Yan saw that his daughters chin had be so thin that it was pointy. He couldnt help but feel his heart ache.Jiajia, quit your job ande home. Lou Ziling is already married. Theres no point in you thinking about him! I have many outstanding young people in my hands. Can I introduce a few to you? You dont like that Luo Feiyang you sawst time?
Zuo Jias eyes were bloodshot, but her tone was gentle and rxed.I think its pretty good now. I have some shares in thepany, so Ill get more dividends if the performance is good! When I get the money, Ill buy you and mom a big house to live in!
Zuo Yan was so anxious that he was about to stomp his feet.Its not about the money. You cant go on like this. Listen to me and quit your job. If you like to start apany, we can start one ourselves! Most importantly, you have to stay away from Lou Ziling. I dont think hes a good person! He borrowed the Li familys name and swallowed the Li familys property. What a ruthless person!
Zuo Jia smiled, but she didnt care about it.
In her eyes, Lou Ziling was perfect. Even the fact that he didnt like her was perfect.
It was because he didnt like her. His heart had never been moved, which proved that he was loyal to the person he liked.
Jiajia, do you want to go out and y for a few days? Just take it as a way to rx your mood, dont tire yourself out!
Zuo Jia looked at her fathers worried face and didnt have the heart to reject him.Okay. Ill go out for a walk when Lou Zilinges back from her honeymoon.
She had actually been to countless countries and been to countless ces. She liked peace and did not yearn for the outside world. She only wanted to be with the person she loved. She would follow him wherever he went.
However, this person was already married.
Zuo Jias heart suddenly ached, and she felt that a part of her heart was empty.
Lou Ziling came back from her vacation. On the first day of work, Zuo Jia came to ask for leave.President Lou, Id like to take a few days off to rest.
Lou Ziling said without hesitation,Alright!
Zuo Jias status in this ce was very special. Strictly speaking, she wasnt his subordinate, and she had only asked for leave out of politeness. She had just greeted him.
Besides, Zuo Jia had not rested since she came to work. Lou Ziling would let her rest.
Zuo Jia left very quickly. Two dayster, Lou Ziling realized that she had finished all the work before she left. Thepany was also in good order during the half a month when he was not around.
Lou Ziling watched the results of her work and did not know how to react.
He had never encountered such a situation before. In the past, as long as he remained indifferent, those girls would automatically stay away from him. They would not work for him endlessly and without any regard for returns.
Jing Xi suggested,why dont we introduce her to a boyfriend? Having someone to take care of her is better than anything else.
Jing Xi felt ufortable having an excellent girl by her side who had been silently doing her best for her husband.
She felt that Zuo Jia had locked herself in ce and refused toe out. When she came into contact with more people, she would naturally not look at Lou Ziling.
Zuo Jia was on vacation, but in fact, she didnt go to any distant ce.
Lou Ziling was in this city and she didnt want to go anywhere.
She had never done anything out of line in her life. She did not get into a rtionship, did not smoke or drink, and studied and worked obediently.
Zuo Jia slowly walked into the bar at night.
The music was deafening, and people were moving in the bars Dance Pool, screaming one after another.
She found a quiet corner and sat down. She asked for a cocktail and watched the lively crowd with her chin in her hand.
At a certain moment, she suddenly saw Jing Xis figure. She looked carefully and found Lou Ziling, who had been protecting her with his arms.
Zuo Jia smiled. What a small world!
He always appeared in her life inadvertently and disappeared without warning. She seemed to be used to it.
She looked at Jing Xis screaming andughing face and patted her own face in confusion. Did Lou Ziling not like her because she was not lively enough?
She finished the cocktail in one go, wanting to use the power of alcohol to liven herself up for once. However, she ordered five more cocktails, but she couldnt get excited even after drinking all of them.
However, she was so drunk that she could only see shadows in front of her eyes and could not even stand up.
She only thought that the cocktail was delicious, but she didnt expect it to have such a strong aftertaste.
In her daze, Zuo Jia felt that someone had hugged her. She instinctively wanted to p away the hand that was touching her, but an extremely stern voice rang in her ear,Jiajia, its me!
Zuo Jia struggled to open her eyes and saw Zuo Yans angry face. He mumbled,dad.
Why did the mayore to the bar?
If he was recognized, his father would probably be criticized.
Zuo Jia couldnt even remember how she got home. When she opened her eyes the next day, she saw her mother, Xi Ying, sitting by her bed, watching over her.
Mom!
Jiajia, you scared mom to death. Youre not allowed to go to ces like bars alone in the future! What if someone had drugged you? Fortunately, your father arrived in time. If he had been a littleter, you would have been taken away by someone else!
On the third day of Zuo Jias leave, Lou Zilingspany started to have problems.
Most of the externalmunication projects had been stalled, especially by the government departments. Even the publishing of advertisements in newspapers and magazines was quite unsessful.
Lou Ziling drove to find Zuo Yan. Zuo Yan said to his Secretary angrily,No, no, I dont know this person. I wont see this person in the future!
His precious daughter had never been a drunkard, but she had been drinking alone in a barst night. It was all Lou Zilings fault!
He didnt care who Lou Ziling married, but he would never let Lou Ziling have an easy time if it was within his power.
Lou Ziling couldnt see Zuo Yan. He wanted to call Zuo Jia, but he gave up when he took out his phone.
Zuo Jia wasnt anyone to him, so what obligation did she have to help him settle these messy things?
He had better find a way to solve it himself!
Jing Xi soon found out that Lou Ziling was in trouble. She called Jing Yichen and asked for his help.
But city W wasnt under family Jings control, so they didnt have much power.
And Zuo Yan was so stubborn that he would rather go against the Jing family than give in.
Anyway, he just didnt like Lou Ziling and was deliberately making things difficult for him. No one could say anything.

Chapter 1630: Immediate execution of death
Trantor: 549690339
Zuo Jia knew nothing about this. She had been banned from entering the bar and Lou Zilingspany by her family.
Dad, Zuo Jia said helplessly,Ive been on leave for a week. You should at least let me go back to work, right?
Hes arade of your grandfathers when he was young. Hell be bringing his grandson to visit your grandfather in the next two days. Pack up and go apany your grandfather for a few days!
Zuo Yan had no intention of letting his daughter go to work. His daughter had been a treasure since she was young. She was not to be trampled on by Lou Ziling and her husband. He wanted to let everyone see that Zuo Jia could marry well and that many people would fight to have her.
Dad, youre not thinking of making me go on a blind date, are you?
Why would I? I just want you to apany your grandfather. Your grandfather dotes on you so much. An oldrade brought his grandson to his house and you want him to receive them alone? Your grandmother passed away early. He only had one daughter, and your mother only had you
Zuo Jia saw that her father was about to start a long speech again, and Xi Ying seemed to be on the verge of tears, so she quickly said,Alright, Ill go! Ill definitely spend time with Grandpa!
Seeing that their daughter had agreed, the couple immediately beamed with joy.
As soon as Zuo Jia left, Xi Ying, the president of the Procuratorate, immediately submitted a series of evidence to the court and filed a Public Prosecution. The general content of the prosecution was that Lou Ziling intended to kill someone, murdered someone for money, and stole a life. The public security organization should arrest Lou Ziling and sentence him to death.
Di Yuan, the head of city Ws court, was Xi Yings College ssmate and good friend. The day Zuo Jia was born, Di Yuan had already taken Zuo Jia as her goddaughter. She didnt have a daughter of her own, but for so many years, she had always treated Zuo Jia like her own daughter.
Therefore, Xi Ying told Di Yuan about Zuo Jia and Lou Ziling without hiding anything.
On the second day after Zuo Jia left city W, Lou Ziling received a court summon.
The name on the summon was clearly written in three big words: Lou Ziling!
The court was to be held three dayster, and the reason for summoning was simply written: The court session began.
Lou Ziling was confused. Who wanted to Sue him? Why did they Sue him?
This person obviously knew his true identity, otherwise the summons wouldnt have been sent to his office.
Lou Ziling found a judge friend and asked him what was going on.
When the judge saw that the signature column of the summons actually had the name of the hospital director, Di Yuan, written on it, he was so scared that his fingers were trembling. This meant that the presiding judge of this case would be the hospital director, Di Yuan.
Young master Li, who did you offend? Unless its a major special case, our director wont personally try the case. If she tries the case herself, none of the used will have a good end!
The judge did not say thest sentence. Di Yuan usually only tried major criminal cases raised by the prosecutors office, and the trial result was almost always: The death penalty would be carried out immediately!
Lou Ziling had offended a lot of people, but Zuo Yan was the only one he had offended recently.
Zuo Yans wife, Xi Ying, happened to be the head of the Procuratorate. If the court wanted to try the case, the Procuratorate had to first prosecute the case. The masterminds behind this case should be Zuo Yan and his wife.
No wonder Zuo Jia hadnte to work for a few days. When she had asked for leave, she had said that she would only be here for a few days.
Lou Ziling stared at the thin summon and felt a headache.
He remembered that Jing Yichen had a deep influence in A city. The Public Security Bureau and even the mayor were his people. Why did everything be useless when it came to him?
He could win over many judges, prosecutors, and police, but he could not make the director and the chief listen to him.
What he had done was far from enough!
However, the most important thing at the moment was to deal with the court trial.
Even though Lou Ziling was well-prepared, Xi Ying still had sufficient evidence in her hands, especially the paternity test between Lou Ziling and Lou Mingyang, which directly exposed his identity.
Without a doubt, he lost the case.
It was true that Lou Ziling had killed Li Jing and robbed her of arge amount of property. Di Yuan had personally sentenced Lou Ziling to death on the spot.
Lou Ziling was immediately sent to the prison. ording to thew, he would stay in the prison for 30 days and would not be killed immediately.
Within these 30 days, if the defendant was not satisfied with the courts decision, he could appeal to a higher court.
30 dayster, if the defendant did not appeal, it meant that the court agreed with the courts judgment. In other words, Lou Ziling still had 30 days to live.
Jing Xi didnt know that Lou Ziling had been sued until the police took him away.
When she finally understood the whole story, she almost vomited blood!
Just because Lou Ziling didnt like Zuo Jia, he had to be forced to his death by the Zuo family?
All his hard work had been destroyed overnight!
Jing Xi hated Zuo Jia, and she hated herself.
If Lou Ziling was really sentenced to death, she would never be able to forgive herself.
If she hadnt left Lou Ziling, Zuo Jia wouldnt have had the chance to see through Lou Zilings identity. Now, tan Ruyi and Luo Feiyang were still together, but Lou Ziling was locked up.
This would be the most humiliating experience in Lou Zilings life.
He was such a proud and cold person, how was he going to live in the guard station?
She had heard that there were many people working for Zuo Yan in the detention center. They would definitely not let Lou Ziling have an easy time.
Jing Xi would call Jing Yichen whenever she was in a hurry. In her heart, there was nothing her father couldnt do.
She believed that if they were to appeal to a higher court, Jing Yichen would be able to get the higher court to make a new decision. But if that happened, the matter would be blown out of proportion. What was more important was not what Lou Ziling had done, but that someone wanted him dead.
Jing Xi found Zuo Jias phone number in Lou Zilings phone and called her.
Miss Zuo, Lou Ziling has been sentenced to death by the court. The person who filed thewsuit is the president of the Procuratorate, and the judge is the President of the Court. Ill go find you.
When Zuo Jia learned of this news, it was no less than a bolt from the blue!
She was a little dumbfounded by Jing Xis words.
No wonder her parents wanted to send her away. It turned out that there was such a shocking conspiracy behind it!
Zuo Jia couldnt care about anything else. She left her grandfather, his oldrade, and the handsome grandson of his oldrade behind and took a ne to W-city.
When she got home and saw her parents faces, she started to cry without saying a word.
Jia Jia, why did youe back early? Your grandfathersrades have left? Didnt I tell you to spend a few more days with Grandpa?
Jiajia, dont cry. Who bullied you again? Tell dad, Ill take care of him for you, and I promise he wont dare to do it again!
Zuo Jias voice was choked with sobs, and she was crying her heart out.Dad, when you said youd take care of him, did you mean to take his life? So, its not that he doesnt dare to bully me anymore, but he can t!
Chapter 1631
Chapter 1631: Never to see you again
Trantor: 549690339
Zuo Yan and his wife looked at each other, not knowing how she got wind of this so quickly.
They had blocked all the news. Even the trial of Lou Zilings case was not held in public, so not many people knew about it.
Zuo Yan only thought for a few seconds before he realized that the person who had told on him was Jing Xi!
Zuo Yan was a little flustered as he wiped away his daughters tears.Little Jiajia, dont cry, dont cry. This is dads fault. It was all my idea. Your mother and your godmother were instructed by me. Sigh, I saw you drinking so sadly at the barst time and almost got taken away by bad guys. Lou Ziling and Jing Xi were showing off their love in front of you. I was so angry that I wanted to scare that kid!
Scare him? Is it worth the death sentence?
Zuo Jias eyes were red from crying. If Lou Ziling died because of her, she would not be able to continue living in this world shamelessly.
She loved Lou Ziling in a subtle and Silent Way. She didnt expect him to feel touched and treat her well. She only wanted him to be happy.
She had never thought of taking his life!
From the first day they met again, she had already known that he had a fiance. She had never thought of taking Lou Ziling away from Jing Xi!
She just wanted to get close to him once in a while.
The thought of Lou Ziling disappearing from the world made her heart ache so much that she found it hard to breathe.
Zuo Yan anxiously wiped his daughters tears away, but he soon realized that the more he wiped, the more tears she shed!
Although Zuo Jia looked like a weak girl, she rarely cried. She had never cried so much before!
Jiajia, be good. Dont cry. Im just scaring Lou Ziling. If I really kill him, youll me me for the rest of your life. Its not worth it!
Zuo Yan was very regretful. He felt that he had not scared Lou Ziling and Jing Xi. Instead, he had scared his daughter half to death!
Ive already calcted it. Lou Ziling will definitely not listen to the verdict and will definitely appeal. By then, Ill find someone to ask the Supreme Court to retrial him. Then, Ill ask your godmother to throw away all the evidence. If we dont sentence him to death, well just give him a sentence of eight to ten years!
No, not even a day! Zuo Jia shook her head while crying.
Zuo Yan could not bear to see his daughter cry. Seeing that his wife was also crying, he quickly said,Wouldnt that be letting him off too easily? The couple went on a honeymoon, and you worked so hard to help them manage thepany. Then, you didnt give you any face and even used our familys power to get a project. This couple is not good people! Lou Ziling ... Will be sentenced to at least a year in prison, right?
Zuo Jia knew that her parents loved her to the point of spoiling her. Whatever she said, Zuo Yan would agree.
She was now convinced that Zuo Yan did not want to take Lou Zilings life.
She raised her head and asked in a soft voice,Daddy, am I your daughter?
Because her voice was nasal from crying, it was a little like the way she acted coquettishly when she asked for candy when she was young. Zuo Yans heart softened and he quickly said,Yes, of course, biological. That night, your mother and I ... We had it after that!
Xi Ying had almost cried out of concern for her daughter, but after hearing Zuo Yans words, she pinched him hard, feeling both angry and amused. Dont talk nonsense!
When did I talk nonsense? Jiajia was born between you and me! Look at how much she looks like me, right, Jiajia?
Zuo Jia nodded hard, but her tears kept falling.
Her originally rosy and soft lips were now a little dry and cracked. Zuo Yan suspected that the little water left in her body had been drained dry by her tears!
Jiajia, drink some water first. Lets sit down and talk. Lou Ziling wont die anyway. Dont worry, okay?
Zuo Jia grabbed her parents arms, refusing to drink water or sit down. She said anxiously,Dad, let Lou Ziling go. Now, immediately, immediately!
Zuo Yans eyes widened.How can that be? hes only been in there for less than 24 hours!
Then am I really your daughter?
You must be my daughter ...
Zuo Jia saw that he was going to say that she was the child of him and his mother again, so she immediately stopped him. Im your biological daughter. Why is it so difficult for me to ask you for a favor? Quickly let him go, is the detention center a ce for people to stay?
Zuo Yan was almost fooled by his daughter. She had been talking about her biological daughter for so long, and it turned out that she had been waiting for him!
Well ... Its precisely because youre my daughter that I want to stand up for you! There are so many outstanding young men in the world. For example, Fu rongting, who you met at your grandfathers ce, has been a promising child since he was young. Your grandfather said that hes a man of striking appearance, and hes even more handsome than that Lou Ziling in military uniform!
Fu rongting was the grandson of Zuo Jias grandfathersrade-in-arms, and he was indeed very good-looking. He had the heroic aura of a soldier, which gave people a sense of security.
However, Zuo Jia and he were just ordinary friends.
She wasnt in the mood to discuss anyone else!
Zuo Jia turned around and left when she saw her father was not willing to let her go immediately.
Xi Ying was anxious.What should we do? what should we do? our daughter just came back and then left. Quickly find someone to follow her. Dont let her do anything stupid!
As expected, Zuo Yan had someone follow Zuo Jia all the way to the guard post.
Zuo Jia wanted to go in to see Lou Ziling, but the guards didnt agree.
She immediately gave Zuo Yan a call.Father, ask them to let me in. Otherwise, Ill sleep here tonight. I wont leave.
His daughter was a little one-track minded, and it was hard to change the person and thing that she had set her mind on. Zuo Yan was afraid that she was really sleeping outside the gate of the guardhouse, so he quickly ordered someone to let her in.
Through the thick bullet-proof ss window, Zuo Jias tears fell again the moment she saw Lou Ziling.
The corners of his lips and cheeks were bruised, and he had obviously been beaten.
She cried so hard that she couldnt speak, but Lou Ziling was still indifferent. There was no anger or joy on his face. It was as if Zuo Jia was just a stranger he had never known.
He thought it was Jing Xi who hade to see him. He did not expect Zuo Jia to be the first one toe.
She had made him happy for nothing.
Lou Ziling guessed that Jing Xi must have been here before, but the people here refused to let her in. Zuo Jias father was the mayor and her mother was the head of the Procuratorate. It would be easy for her toe in.
Zuo Jia looked at Lou Zilings indifferent expression and felt a heart-wrenching pain. Even if he scolded her, it would at least prove that he had a trace of feelings for her.
But he didnt say anything, just like how he treated her when they first met in middle school.
The depression, pain, and despair made her lose the courage to pursue him. She only dared to let those feelings take root in the bottom of her heart.
She wiped her tears and looked away from Lou Ziling. She said in a low voice,Im sorry. Ill solve this as soon as possible. From now on, Ill definitely disappear from your life. Goodbye.
Oh, no, it was never to see her again.

Trantor: 549690339
Zuo Jia quickly left the guardhouse. Her power was limited, and only Zuo Yan could get Lou Ziling out of the guardhouse.
She soon returned home. As soon as she entered the door, she saw her parents sitting in the small living room, warmly weing Fu rongting.
Seeing her return, Fu rongting stood up and called out to her in a clear voice,Jiajia, you left your bag in a hurry. Grandpa asked me to bring it to you. Your grandfather is very worried about you. Since youre fine, Ill go back first!
Fu rongting said as he walked out, but Zuo Yan and Xi Ying immediately stopped him.
Rong ting, youve just arrived. Dont be in a hurry to leave. Let Jiajia bring you around. Our city W is a famous tourist city!
Even if you dont want to go out to y, you still want to have a meal at our house, right? Jiajia,e here quickly too. Youre such a careless child, why didnt you bring your bag and luggage? Hurry up and thank Rong ting!
Zuo Jias eyes were still red, her lips were still dry, and the tears on her face were especially obvious. She thanked Fu rongting in a low voice, then turned to Zuo Yan and said,Dad, let Lou Ziling out. I dont like him anymore.
Zuo Yan was afraid that his daughter would say more and cause Fu rongting to misunderstand, so he quickly said,Alright, alright, alright. I told you hes not a good person. Look, hes already made you so angry. Go wash your face first!
He was beaten up by those people in the detention center. If he continued to stay there, he would die before the date of the death penalty! If he dies, I dont want to live either.
Zuo Yan didnt stop his daughter from talking. It was obvious that she liked Lou Ziling.
He nced at Fu rongting and saw that he was still calm, without any displeasure.
Zuo Yan heaved a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to say something, Fu rongting said,Uncle Zuo, Jiajia is so worried about her friend. You should be lenient and let her friend out!
Since Fu rongting had spoken, Zuo Yan had to give him face.
Okay, since Rong ting has pleaded for him, let him go. But I dont have the final say in the detention center. Itll take at least tomorrow morning for the approval to be approved.
Its good enough that shes done it so quickly. Zuo Jia didnt say anything more and went to the bathroom to wash her face.
She didnt sleep much all night and got up at dawn. After washing up, she left without even eating.
Fu rongting had slept in the Zuo familys housest night, in the room next to Zuo Jia s.
He got up very early. When he saw Zuo Jia, he asked her,Youre going to the guard station to pick up your friend?
Yeah, Zuo Jia nodded.
Do you want me to go with you?
Zuo Jia wanted to refuse, but she thought that if she went alone, it would cause a misunderstanding between Jing Xi and Lou Ziling, so she agreed to Fu rongtings proposal.Thank you!
Youre my sister, you dont have to be so polite.
Fu rongting and Zuo Jia had known each other since they were young. When they were young, Zuo Jia had always called him brother, but after not seeing each other for more than ten years, they had be distant. Fu rongting still called him sister, but Zuo Jia was already too embarrassed to call him brother.
The two of them went downstairs. Zuo Jia wanted to drive, but Fu rongtings voice was calm. Youre not in a good state. Ill drive.
Zuo Jia didnt insist. She was indeed not in good shape. Fu rongting could even drive the fighter aircraft well, and all kinds of cars were nothing to him.
Zuo Jias car was in her own vi, and they were driving Xi Yings car.
Zuo Yans car was the mayors car, and the license te was too conspicuous.
The two of them got into the car and left. Zuo Yan and Xi Ying, on the other hand, were sprawled on the balcony, discussing excitedly.
Not bad, young man. Youre so calm that you dont look like youre in your twenties!
Of course, the elites from the Army are different! His father is the Minister of Defense, and his grandfather has just retired from the Army. The whole family of soldiers are upright and determined!
Why do I feel that Jiajia is not interested in him? Lou Ziling is already married and she is still worried about him. Now that he is in the detention center, can family Jing just sit by and do nothing?
Fu rongting drove the car, and Zuo Jia led the way. An hourter, the two arrived at the guardhouse.
A ck Jaguar was parked outside the gate of the guardhouse. Zuo Jia only needed one look to know that it was Lou Zilings car.
The person in the car should be Jing Xi.
Zuo Jia got out of the car, but she didnt enter the guard post, nor did she approach the Jaguar.
She stood beside Xi Yings car, her face a little pale. Fu rongting, dressed in a well-ironed military uniform, stood beside her and said lightly,Your face is very pale. If you dont know, youll think that its your husband inside, not miss Jings husband.
Why are you ... Zuo Jia turned her head and looked at him.
She didnt finish her sentence because Lou Ziling came out at the right time. Her gaze was attracted by her.
Fu rongting calmly continued her sentence, and in a voice that only Zuo Jia could hear, he said,How would I know?
He smiled and nced at the slim woman who got out of the car. Then, he looked at Lou Ziling.
Jing Xi is not a problem. If you want to marry Lou Ziling, I can help you. I happen to know her weakness, do you want to try?
Zuo Jia looked at Lou Ziling and Jing Xi, who were hugging each other not far away, and shook her head gently.No, I dont like him anymore.
The expression on your face doesnt say that.
Fu rongting saw the couple looking at him from a dozen meters away, and suddenly reached out to put an arm around Zuo Jias shoulder.
Zuo Jia was slightly stunned, but she didnt move.
She knew that Fu rongting was helping her.
After Jing Xi and Lou Ziling got into the car and left, Fu rongting quickly released his hand.Are you at ease now? Dont worry, we can go back now.
On the ck Jaguar, Lou Ziling turned around and saw a man and a woman standing side by side outside the car. After a long time, she turned back.
Why are you still looking at her? Jing Xi said angrily. If it wasnt for her, you wouldnt have suffered so much!
She looked at the bruises on Lou Zilings face and her heart ached. She had already disliked Zuo Jia, and now she disliked Lou Ziling even more.
Lou Ziling smiled.Im fine. I just had a fight with the guards. They didnt get any advantage. This matter has nothing to do with Zuo Jia, she wouldnt have thought of such a method to deal with me.
He had turned around just now because he felt a little strange. Zuo Jia had a boyfriend so soon?
Lou Ziling took a hot shower after returning to the manor. When he came out of the bathroom, he saw that Jing Xi had already asked someone to prepare dinner for him.
Jing Xi walked over and hugged his waist, her voice choked with sobs.I was so scared, I thought ...
She thought Lou Ziling would die.
Lou Ziling hugged Jing Xi and touched her hair gently.Dont be afraid. I wont die. Even if Zuo Jia doesnt help me, I can still escape. Its just that Ill have to change my name.
He waspletely capable of breaking out of prison, let alone the prison.

Chapter 1633: The benefits of taking care of the sick
Trantor: 549690339
For the next few days, Jing Xi took good care of Lou Ziling. When tan Ruyi and Luo Feiyang had a fight, she didnt care when Luo Feiyang called her. She was with Lou Ziling every day, afraid that Lou Ziling would disappear in the blink of an eye.
Lou Ziling was ttered. He went into the detention center alone. He didnt think much of it. The environment in the detention center was much better than when he had protected Jing Xi on the ind.
At least, the wind and rain wouldnt get in his way, and his three meals were provided on time.
He was confident enough that he could get out of the prison, so he didnt feel any pressure.
It seemed that he had scared Jing Xi. He had been taking care of Jing Xi before, but it had been the other way around these days.
Lou Ziling was a little happy. He hoped that Jing Xi would put him first. Luo Feiyang and Ji moxuan should stand aside!
He really had to thank Zuo Jia. He had tried so hard for so long but failed, but because of her, Jing Xi hadpletely changed.
However, Lou Ziling was also slowly changing. Jing Xi liked to be lively, so he often apanied her out. She loved to research all kinds of tricks, and he was willing to be her test subject.
Zuo Jia was sick. She had a bad cold.
She stayed in her own vi and refused to go home. She also refused to take her medicine and didnt let Zuo Yan and Xi Ying in.
Zuo Yan could only hand over the medicine to Fu rongting and give him a lot of advice, his main purpose being to let Fu rongting persuade Zuo Jia to take the medicine.
Fu rongting agreed.
He didnt go through the main door. In the evening, he pried open Zuo Jias window and jumped in.
He was very lucky. The window he had pried open happened to be in Zuo Jias bedroom.
Zuo Jia was shocked to see someone jump in. She picked up the pepper spray beside her pillow and was about to spray it, but when she saw that it was Fu rongting, she quickly hid it under the pillow.
Fu rongting pretended not to see her and walked to her bed, his voice gentle.Why dont you take your medicine if youre sick? I remember that you were like this when you were young.
Zuo Jia couldnt remember.
She had always been obedient and rarely went against her parents.
Fu rongting put the medicine on the cab at the head of her bed, walked out of her bedroom, and soon came back with a ss of warm water.
He sat down on the edge of the bed and touched Zuo Jias head in a natural manner. He then frowned and said,Do you have a fever?
Zuo Jia had never been so intimate with a man of the opposite sex, except for her own familys elders.
Fortunately, Fu rongtings hand only touched her forehead for a moment, so she didnt show any strange signs.
She sat up and said in a gentle voice,Did my father ask you toe? Im sorry, I seem to have brought you trouble.
Yes, uncle Zuo and aunty Xi said that if you dont get better, Im not allowed to leave, so you have to take your medicine quickly.
Fu rongtings tone sounded like he was joking, but there was no expression on his face. Zuo Jia couldnt tell if he was telling the truth or not.
Her parents could really do such a thing!
They were certain that she would be too embarrassed to refuse Fu rongtings care.
Zuo Jia had no choice but to take her medicine. She wanted to get out of bed, but Fu rongting pressed her shoulder.Lie down and take a nap. Im leaving.
Zuo Jia watched him jump down from the window, and she swallowed the words she wanted him to leave through the main door.
Shey back on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.
In her daze, she smelled the fragrance of delicious food, and her hungry stomach was awakened by the fragrance.
What came into view was Fu rongtings tall and straight body and handsome face.
He had changed out of his military uniform and was wearing white casual clothes. His short hair was clean and neat. When he did not speak, his cold temperament was at least 50% simr to Lou Ziling s.
Zuo Jia was in a daze for a moment. She looked straight at Fu rongting, thinking that she was dreaming.
Fu rongting saw through Zuo Jias daze at a nce. He was a little displeased, and his voice was a little indifferent.Jiajia, its me, Fu rongting. Get up ande eat.
Zuo Jia suddenly woke up and said apologetically, Im sorry, I got the wrong person.
She felt that she shouldnt have done this, which was the greatest disrespect to Fu rongting.
He clearly lookedpletely different from Lou Ziling.
She hurriedly got out of bed. After taking two steps, she realized that she was only wearing a thin spaghetti strap nightdress. The outline of her chest was extremely clear. She quickly went back and took arge cardigan to wrap herself up.
Fu rongtings eyes swept over her chest, and his previous displeasure suddenly disappeared.
Only then did she remember that she had to wrap herself up. When he came to deliver the medicine to her, he had already seen everything he shouldnt have.
The two white and tender bunnies were quite beautiful.
Zuo Jia sneaked a nce at Fu rongting and saw that he was still calm and indifferent. She was relieved. He probably didnt see it, right? Its good that you didnt see it!
When others came to her house, they would ring the doorbell and go through the front door, but Fu rongting had pried open the window and jumped into her bedroom. She waspletely dumbfounded.
There was porridge and a few side dishes on the dining table. Zuo Jia could tell at a nce that her mother, Xi Ying, had made them.
The dishes and porridge were steaming hot and had an alluring aroma. It was obvious that they had been packed and sent over as soon as they were ready.
Zuo Jia was full after eating half of it, but she didnt want to waste it. Just as she was about to eat more, Fu rongting took the bowl away.
Youre not allowed to eat anymore.
If you dont eat it, therell be leftovers. Its such a waste!
Then Ill bring you less next time.
Fu rongting did not allow her to eat. After he was full, he threw the rest into the trash can.
He had discovered a few days ago that Zuo Jia had a habit of eating. She liked to finish everything, even if it was something she didnt like.
Fu rongting didnt know whether tough or cry at this habit, but no one in the family advised her to stop eating. Instead, they advised her,youre too thin, eat more!
When Fu rongting was throwing away the leftovers, Zuo Jia went over to snatch the te from him, but she was unable to do so. She felt a little wronged.Why did you throw away my food?
She didnt finish her meal and felt very ufortable.
She actually knew that this was an obsessivepulsive disorder, but she couldnt change it.
Fu rongting put the te down and turned to leave.Come out, watch TV for half an hour, and then take your medicine.
Zuo Jia didnt move. She looked at the vegetables in the trash can with a reluctant expression, as if she could pick them up and eat them if Fu rongting left.
Fu rongting could only helplessly walk back. He wanted to pull her away, but he couldn t.
He simply picked her up and said,You should change this habit in the future. Eating too much will burden your stomach, and its not good for your body.
Zuo Jias body suddenly rose into the air. She eximed in a low voice,Quickly put me down!
Her nightdress could only cover her thighs, but after she was carried up horizontally, it couldnt even cover her thighs!
Fu rongtings hand touched her thigh without any resistance.
Fu rongting!
Zuo Jia was both embarrassed and angry as she called out his name.
However, her voice was soft and beautiful. It didnt sound like she was angry, but more like a pout.
Eh? Jiajia, whats the matter?
Fu rongtings expression was indifferent. He touched Zuo Jias thigh with his fingers and suddenly felt that it felt good.
He lowered his head. Her cardigan was open, and under her thin pajamas, two little white rabbits were jumping slightly with her intense breathing.
Well, the benefits of taking care of patients were not bad!

Zuo Jia noticed Fu rongtings gaze at once. She hurriedly pulled her cardigan to cover herself, her eyes full of disbelief!
You, you ... How could you be such a person?!
After being in contact with Fu rongting for a few days, she felt that he was a typical soldier-calm,posed, not lustful, and upright.
She didnt expect him to ...
Fu rongtings face was calm. He walked to the bed, but he did not put Zuo Jia down. He still held her.What kind of person am I? Monk Tang? The king of the womand was unmoved no matter how much she was tempted? Oh, thats not right. Even though Tang Sanzang has profound attainments in Buddhism, he still fell for the king of womand.
Zuo Jia crossed her arms in front of her chest and said with a red face, Im not trying to seduce you.
Yes.
Fu rongting responded lightly,dont wear this nightgown in the future, especially when mene.
Zuo Jia was a little annoyed. She had never dressed like this in front of outsiders, regardless of gender.
How could she have known that this person would jump in from the window?
She bit her lip and didnt say a word, her face tensed up, guarding against Fu rongting as if he was a thief.
Fu rongting didnt take it seriously. He put her on the bed and stuffed the tablet into her hands.y for a while, then take your medicine and go to sleep.
Holding the tablet, Zuo Jia suddenly felt that Fu rongting was treating her like a child, arranging things for her.
Half an hour passed, and Zuo Jia didnt even turn on her tablet. She sat on the bed in a daze, unable toe back to her senses.
Fu rongting walked in again and handed her a ss of warm water and a handful of medicine.Time to take your medicine.
Zuo Jia took the water with one hand and the medicine with the other,Thank you, Im sorry for the trouble!
Fu rongting didnt deny it. He reached out to touch her forehead and said, Youre still running a fever. If the medicine doesnt work, Ill send you to the hospital.
Zuo Jia was a little dizzy at this moment. She felt that Fu rongting was too close to her!
She took the medicine absent-mindedly and identally choked. The capsule got stuck in her throat, and she couldnt go up or down. It was extremely ufortable.
Fu rongting patted her back. Seeing that it was useless, he went out to pour her another ss of water.Take big gulps.
Zuo Jia finished the entire ss of water in one go, but the capsule was still in her mouth. She looked at Fu rongting with tears in her eyes.Will I be the first person to be killed by a capsule?
Fu rongting couldnt help butugh.The capsule will go down when its soft. It cant kill you. Youll only eat it.
This wasmon sense, and Zuo Jia knew it.
She just felt that the atmosphere between her and Fu rongting was getting weirder and weirder, so she made a joke to lighten up the mood.
It was nice to be siblings with Fu rongting, but it was impossible to be lovers.
Lou Ziling was deeply rooted in her heart. It would take a long time to forget her.
Alright, you can rest. Im leaving.
Fu rongting still did not walk through the front door that was locked by Zuo Jia. He nimbly jumped out of her bedroom window.
Zuo Jia hurried to the window and happened to see Fu rongting standing up steadily afternding. He turned around and was surprised to see Zuo Jias delicate face.
Why did you get out of bed? Go back and lie down!
This window is too high. You cane through the door next time. Ill open the door for you!
Her bedroom was on the second floor, and it was too dangerous for Fu rongting to jump down like this.
Fu rongting replied with a faint mm and turned to leave.
However, the next morning, he still climbed in through the window.
He sat on the edge of the bed and touched Zuo Jias forehead. Then, he immediately shook her awake.Jiajia, get up. Ill take you to the hospital!
Zuo Jia opened her eyes in pain and looked at the open window. Sheined in a low voice, Didnt I tell you to use the main entrance ...
I rang the doorbell, but you didnt hear me, so I had toe in through the window.
Im so ufortable. Let me sleep a little longer.
No, your fever is very serious. You must go to the hospital!
Zuo Jia was already used to Fu rongting touching her forehead, but when he reached his hand directly into the nket and carried her out, she was quite unustomed to it, and her groggy head became much clearer.
Put me down, Ill walk on my own.
Fu rongting didnt let go. He nced at Zuo Jias clothes and saw that she had changed out of her thin silk pajamas into a set of white long-sleeved cotton pajamas.
He could leave the house in the same clothes, so he carried Zuo Jia out of the vi and put her in the car. Then he went back to get Zuo Jias bag and coat.
Seeing that he was going to put on her clothes, Zuo Jia quickly took it. Ill wear it myself!
Fu rongting did not insist. Seeing that she could wear it herself, he started the car and took Zuo Jia to the nearest hospital.
There were many patients with colds and fevers in this season, and there was a shortage of beds. The doctor prescribed medicine and the nurse arranged for her to sit in the injection seat area.
Fu rongting picked a quiet area and sat down with Zuo Jia. The nurse came over to give her an infusion, but she secretly peeked at Fu rongting several times.
His appearance and temperament were too outstanding, so it was difficult not to attract attention.
Fu rongting didnt notice, but Zuo Jia did. She smiled and turned to look at Fu rongting.
Whats wrong? did I hurt you?
Fu rongting couldnt help but ask when he saw Zuo Jia looking at him.
No, Zuo Jia shook her head.
Then why was she suddenly looking at him?
Fu rongting raised his head and looked at the nurse, who happened to be looking at him as well. He understood the reason in an instant.
After the nurse left, Fu rongting whispered in Zuo Jias ear,Im tang Seng. All the goblins want to eat some of his meat.
Zuo Jia burst intoughter. He was actually quite humorous. She had thought that he was like Lou Ziling, a cold and quiet man.
She had never seen Lou Ziling joke before. Or maybe he only joked with Jing Xi?
As her thoughts drifted away, Zuo Jia fell asleep. When she woke up again, she found herself asleep on Fu rongtings shoulder!
Im sorry ...
Zuo Jia apologized apologetically. Fu rongtings expression was indifferent. Its okay. My shoulder is just a little numb from the pressure. You can just give me a massage.
Zuo Jia was stunned. Massage?
Isnt this too intimate?
Not willing? Then help me wash my clothes. Look, my clothes are all covered in your saliva.
Zuo Jia quickly looked down and saw that there was indeed a pool of water on Fu rongtings shoulder!
That was impossible!
She never drooled when she slept!
Her clear eyes widened and her red lips opened slightly. She was extremely surprised.
Fu rongting stopped teasing her. He reached out his fingers and gently wiped away the tears on her face, saying in a low voice,Silly girl, whats there to cry about? dont cry for him in the future. Its not worth it.
Listening to Fu rongtings gentle voice, Zuo Jia finally realized that she had cried in her dream of Lou Zilings death. It turned out that she had also cried in reality.
It wet Fu rongtings shoulder.

Chapter 1635: Good day, sister-inw!
Trantor: 549690339
Zuo Jia turned her face away and wiped her tears haphazardly. Lets go!
Fu rongting followed her out, but he saw two familiar figures not far away.
The other party didnt notice them, but Zuo Jia suddenly stopped and didnt want to move forward.
Not far away, Jing Xi was holding a report in her hand with a smile on her face. Lou Ziling was smiling gently at her. He even lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, not caring about the peopleing and going.
Zuo Jias eyes were stung by the scene.
So it wasnt that he didnt know how to smile, it wasnt that he wasnt gentle, he just gave all his love to Jing Xi alone.
Ziling, Im not dreaming, right? Are we really having a baby?
Its not a dream, its real. Dont eat too much cold or spicy food in the future, stay away from those messy gases, dont research new things, and dont run around. Stay at home and rest well ...
Lou Ziling exined a lot of things to take note of in detail, then put an arm around Jing Xis shoulder and slowly walked out.
Jing Xi looked up, happiness overflowing in her words, but she seemed a little willful and coquettish.Im in good health. The doctor said that I dont have to be too careful. Ill do what I have to do. I really want to eat spicy food now!
Zuo Jia stood still and watched them leave quietly. She refused to appear in front of Lou Ziling again.
Zuo Yan had already settled Lou Zilings matter. The courts original ruling had been changed to not guilty.
Zuo Yan had been frightened by Zuo Jias illness for a few days.
The person who should be punished had not been punished, and instead, his precious daughter had fallen seriously ill. Zuo Yans grievances did not need to be mentioned.
Fu rongting stood behind Zuo Jia, his voice a little apathetic. Youre still thinking about him? I dont think hes special at all.
A bitter smile appeared on Zuo Jias lips.My father said the same thing.
In fact, Zuo Yans original words were,whats so good about Lou Ziling? He was cold and emotionless, but Fu rongting was much better than him. He was born into a good family, had a good temper, and was well-known!
You havent recovered from your illness yet, so hurry home and rest. Hes married and has a child. If you dont want to snatch him away, its better to forget about him.
Fu rongting took her out. The weather outside was gloomy, and there was no light at all.
Zuo Jia was silent all the way back to the vi.
Fu rongting didnt say much. He first dropped Zuo Jia off at her house, then went out to buy her breakfast before leaving.
Zuo Jia had originally been on guard against Fu rongting suddenly jumping in from the window at any time, and had wrapped herself up tightly the whole day.
However, she didnt expect that Xi Ying and Zuo Yan would be the ones to deliver her lunch.
Zuo Jia had quarreled with her parents for a few days, and now she had stopped. She had always been sensible and obedient, and never needed her parents to worry about her. This time, Zuo Yan had gone too far, and she was too angry.
Mom, wheres Fu rongting?
Xi Ying had deliberately pushed Fu rongting over to take care of her daughter for a few days so that the two young people could spend more time together.
When she heard Zuo Jia ask about him, Xi Ying smiled and said,He went back to carry out a mission. He left in a hurry. It was an urgent mission, so he didnt have time to tell you.
Oh.
Zuo Jia nodded and stopped asking.
He took care of you, shouldnt you at least show him your gratitude?
Okay, Ill send him a text messageter.
Can text messages be sincere? You should express your thanks in person! Our Zuo family has always repaid kindness with kindness and hatred with hatred!
Zuo Yan knocked his daughters head as if she was a blockhead.
Zuo Jia covered her forehead and snorted at her father. Didnt he leave already?
Cant you go and find him after he left?
I dont think thats necessary, Zuo Jia blinked.
Zuo Yan took out a ne ticket from his pocket and pped it on the table.Look, Ive already bought the ne ticket for you. Youll leave from city W at 9 a.m. Tomorrow and reach city K in two hours. You can also treat Rong ting to lunch!
Zuo Jia couldnt help butugh.It turns out that you and my mom have already set up a trap for me. Youre just waiting for me to jump in!
She nced at the ticket and put it away after some thought.
Didnt he go on a mission? I can go?
Yes, why not? If the daughter-inw of the Ministry of National Defense wants to visit her son, who would dare to stop her?
Zuo Jia swallowed a mouthful of water and started coughing.
Dad ... What ... Is this?!
Didnt rong ting tell you? His grandfather is very satisfied with you and has set his sights on you as his granddaughter-inw! If you dont believe me, you can ask him.
Zuo Jia was shocked. This was impossible. Fu rongting must know that she liked Lou Ziling. How could he be willing to be with her?
She was hesitating whether to go or not, but now it seemed that she had to go.
She had to ask him face to face. Otherwise, it would be too much pressure for her to bear the me for the marriage rejection.
The next day, Zuo Jia got on a ne to K city.
After getting off the ne, she changed cars three times ording to the address given to her by Zuo Yan. It took her nearly five hours to reach Fu rongtings camp.
She was already so hungry that she was dizzy. She wanted to call Zuo Yan andugh at him, but she didnt have the energy.
Didnt she say that she still had time to treat Fu rongting to lunch?
Its almost time for dinner!
She thought she would be eating with Fu rongting, so she didnt want any of the food on the ne!
There were Special Forces soldiers wearing bulletproof vests and holding guns everywhere in the camp. When they saw Zuo Jia dragging her suitcase, they immediately stopped her.
This is an important ce for soldiers to stay. Leave quickly!
Hello, my name is Zuo Jia, Fu rongtings friend. Is he here? Im here to look for him.
The soldier standing guard looked at Zuo Jia in confusion, but he quickly reported through the walkie-talkie,Boss, theres a woman called Zuo Jia looking for you. Please give me your instructions!
Fu rongtings voice quickly came from the walkie-talkie,Who is it? I repeat!
The soldier looked at Zuo Jia with even more doubt. Whats your name?
Zuo Jia, Zuo as in left and right, Jia as in beauty.
Zuo Jias name came from the famous line,there are beautiful women in the North, peerless and independent. This line had been written by his grandfather and grandfather in different calligraphy characters and hung on the walls of their living rooms. When Fu rongting had followed his grandfather to Zuo Jias grandfathers house, he had seen this line. Zuo Jia had even exined to him why his grandfather would hang such a line.
The soldier followed Zuo Jias instructions and repeated it to Fu rongting. Fu rongting only said,stay where you are, and then went silent.
Ten minutester, a military jeep appeared in Zuo Jias line of sight.
The car stopped in front of Zuo Jia, and Fu rongting got out of it.
He was dressed in a well-ironed military uniform and military boots. He looked calm and capable.
Zuo Jia waved at him with a gentle smile.
The soldier didnt expect that the highestmander of the camp woulde to pick them up in person. He quickly saluted Fu rongting, and then saluted Zuo Jia.Good day, sister-inw!
Chapter 1636 - I’m willing, are you not?
Chapter 1636: Im willing, are you not?
Trantor: 549690339
Zuo Jia blinked, looked at Fu rongting, and then at the soldier whose skin was tanned from being exposed to the wind and sun for a long time, and said,Im not ...
Before she could finish, Fu rongting said lightly,Dont shout, shes my sister!
Hello, miss Fu! The soldier immediately changed his greeting.
Zuo Jia didnt know whether tough or cry. He had clearly said her surname was Zuo, so why did he still call her miss Fu? this soldier must have done it on purpose!
He didnt believe that she was Fu rongtings sister and was certain that she was his girlfriend.
Zuo Jia didnt exin any further. She smiled and said,Hello, before turning to Fu rongting.Will it be inconvenient for you if Ie here?
Fu rongting took the suitcase from her hands, his expression indifferent.No, youre always wee!
He got into the car with Zuo Jia. It had only taken him ten minutes to get there, but the journey back took half an hour.
Zuo Jia immediately realized that Fu rongting had probably driven the car at top speed.
His care and concern for her were all reflected in the details, but he had never said what he had done.
There were some tents in the center of the camp, but there were not many people. There were only a few people in camouge clothes and guns, ready to change shifts with other people.
There were no women in the camp at all. When the soldiers who had been working hard suddenly saw Fu rongting bring back an outstanding beauty, they all jeered,Boss, sister-inw is here to see you! Not only is sister-inw beautiful, but shes also really good to you! Sister-inw, do you have any sisters? were all single!
Before Zuo Jia could say anything, Fu rongting calmly said,This is my younger sister.
Really? Thats great! She didnt have a boyfriend, right? Boss, were all talented in both civil and military affairs. Do you want to pick one of us to be your brother-inw?
Fu rongtingughed at his own men.Get lost! Hurry up and change shifts!
After they left noisily, Fu rongting invited Zuo Jia into the tent.
Theyre used to being in the wilderness, so they dont have any scruples with their words. Dont take it to heart.
Its fine. Theyre all fine,Zuo Jia said with a gentle smile.
After she finished speaking, she didnt know what else to say. Fu rongting didnt speak either, and the tent was silent for a while.
Zuo Jia sized up Fu rongtings tent, which was only about the size of a bedroom. Fu rongting was tall and had long legs, so when he stood up, his head was already at the top of the tent.
The tents decoration was simple, but it was kept clean by Fu rongting. Even the Army green quilt had been folded into a square.
In the simple tent, the rigorous and well-trained soldiers were vividly reflected.
In the quiet atmosphere, Zuo Jias stomach suddenly grumbled.
She hurriedly covered her stomach, her face slightly flushed, and said to Fu rongting, a little embarrassed,Im hungry, so, so hungry ...
Fu rongting suddenlyughed. He stood up and hugged Zuo Jia for a moment, then pulled away. Ill make you something to eat.
He hugged her and separated her so quickly that when Zuo Jia wanted to push him away, he had already let go and walked out of the tent to get her something to eat.
Zuo Jia gently patted her forehead and told herself not to be so pretentious. He was just giving her a hug, and it was nothing to let him hug her.
Zuo Jia gave herself a psychological suggestion, then also left the tent and followed Fu rongting to another tent.
There was no one in the tent. There was only a simple stove, a small pot, a few vegetables, canned food,pressed biscuits, chocte, and the like that they had built.
Theres very little food in the camp. What do you eat?
Zuo Jias heart suddenly ached. Did Fu rongting only eat this when he was out on a mission?
He was a true young master of the generals office, but he did not have any of the ws of a young master. He could bear hardships and endure.
Do you usually eat this? Wont the nutrition level not be enough?
No, the Army will distribute milk. Soldiers who have special missions will usually take a break for a while afterpleting their missions. Theres no big problem.
The wood in the stove was still burning. Fu rongting poured some water and cooked some noodles for Zuo Jia.
Celery and some wild vegetables that he had just dug up yesterday were ced in the noodles. He sprinkled some green onions on it and cut a few pieces of marinated beef.
You dont have to give me the meat. You guys can keep it! Zuo Jia quickly said.
Its fine. We dontck meat. There are many rats here. There should be enough.
Zuo Jia looked at Fu rongting, dumbfounded.Old ... Rat?
Fu rongting smiled, revealing his white teeth. Im just joking.
Zuo Jia looked at him in a daze. She felt that he didnt seem to be joking. She remembered watching a documentary before. Many soldiers didnt have anything to eat in the wild, so they would eat rat meat to fill their stomachs. It wasnt cooked either. They would peel the skin and eat it raw.
Fu rongting carried the bowl of noodles and two cans of canned food, and brought Zuo Jia back to his tent.
Eat and try my cooking. No one else has this kind of treatment.
That was true. Young master Fu didnt cook at home, and he was themander outside, so he naturally didnt need to cook for the soldiers.
Zuo Jia was already very hungry. Fu rongtings noodles looked simple, but they were delicious. With the canned fish, Zuo Jia even finished the soup.
She was quite satisfied with the food, and her face was ruddy. She smiled more,Really, its all my dads fault. He said Id be here in two hours and I could treat you to lunch. I had breakfast at 7 am and didnt eat anything else!
She was sitting on a simple wooden stool, holding her chin and smiling.
Fu rongting said softly,its so far away here. I didnt expect you toe. You should have told me in advance. Ill pick you up.
The road to this side was not easy to walk on. Zuo Jia was a girl, so Fu rongtings joy was far from the calmness he showed on his face.
Is there something you need from me?
Oh ... I ... I just wanted to thank you for taking care of me. Zuo Jia was at a loss for words.
Youve recovered from your cold?
Yes, Im done.
You have nothing else to say?
Fu rongting felt that she probably didnte all the way here just to thank him.
Zuo Jia bit her lip and didnt know what to say.You and I ... We ...
She could not continue.
Fortunately, she didnt need to exin too clearly, and Fu rongting understood what she meant.
Im willing. Are you not?he asked indifferently.
Ah? I ... This ...
Zuo Jia was afraid that she would hurt Lou Ziling if she rejected her directly. She had been rejected by Lou Ziling in the past and she was very sad.
But if she did not refuse, what if Fu rongting misunderstood?
She gritted her teeth and said in a low voice,you know that I like someone else. I may not be able to live with you.

Trantor: 549690339
Fu rongting still seemed calm.Well, since you dont want to, then lets forget about this matter. Ill exin it to my family. Dont worry, youll still be my sister.
Fu rongtings magnanimity made Zuo Jia feel even more ashamed.
She had never owed anyone anything in her life, but now she felt like she owed Fu rongting a lot.
Im sorry ...
Its okay, dont feel pressured. Youve always been my little sister. Just treat me as your big brother.
Fu rongtings words were very calm, and his expression was still gentle, which made Zuo Jia feel much better.
But she still couldnt say the word brother.
Since they were not rted by blood, calling him brother always seemed to have a faint ambiguity.
The sky gradually darkened, but there was no light in the tent.
Arent there any candles?Zuo Jia asked curiously.
There is.
Then why dont you order it?
Because its a secret operation, were afraid of being discovered by others and its easy to attract wild beasts, so there cant be any light at night.
Zuo Jia wanted to ask him what kind of mission he was on, but she held back when she thought that it might be a military secret.
Fu rongting seemed to know what she was thinking. He said softly,The mission this time is very easy. Its just to catch a few fugitives who crossed the border. They wont being tonight. My people are just setting up a defense line here in advance.
Zuo Jia recalled that the soldiers she had seen were all wearing bulletproof vests and equipped with sniper rifles. Her heart suddenly felt heavy.What fugitive?
Theyre international murderers who are good at working as a group. They might have escaped to our country recently. The Interpol has asked for our countrys help, so I was sent here.
So dangerous?
Zuo Jia suddenly felt that she shouldnt havee.
Should I leave?
Fu rongting slowly held Zuo Jias hand in the dark.No need. I can protect you.
Zuo Jia saw that he had misunderstood and even forgot to pull her hand back. She said anxiously, Thats not what I meant. Im just afraid that Ill be a burden to you. Im not afraid of death!
Fu rongting chuckled. He stood up, pulled Zuo Jia up, and led her out of the tent.If theres any danger, I wont let you stay here. Its very safe today, so you can stay here without worry.
They walked on the soft grass, with stars in the sky above their heads. A crescent moon was hanging in the sky, and insects were chirping. The air was fresh, and everything here made people feel rxed and happy.
Zuo Jia slowly rxed, and then she realized that her hand was being held tightly by Fu rongting, and she could not pull it out even if she wanted to.
Zuo Jia took a deep breath and warned herself,I cant be pretentious. Its just a handshake, no big deal!
After that, Fu rongting touched her hair.
Zuo Jia slowly let out a breath and warned herself, I cant be pretentious. Its just touching my head, whats the big deal?
When Fu rongting hugged her under the moonlight and ced his chin on her forehead, Zuo Jia could no longer lie to herself. This was not a matter of being pretentious, but Fu rongting, that bad guy, was insatiable!
Fu rongting!
Jia Jia, call me brother.
Is there a brother who hugs his sister like this?
Why not? I used to hold you like this when you were little, dont you remember?
I was young then, but its different now!
Yeah, its a little different. Her chest had be bigger. Previously, when he was carrying her, they could be pressed tightly together.
Fu rongting did not dare to say thest sentence, in case Zuo Jia refused to let him carry her.
Zuo Jia was both embarrassed and anxious. Fu rongtings masculine aura surrounded her, making her blush and her heart beat faster.Then why dont you let me go?
She thought that her voice was very strict, but her voice was naturally soft and beautiful, and no matter how she spoke, it sounded like she was acting coquettishly.
Youre letting go just because youre different?
Men and women are different!
Then you can treat me as a woman.
Zuo Jia was so angry that she wanted to stomp her feet. How was he like a woman? How could she treat him as a woman?
Fortunately, it was night time, so her face couldnt be seen clearly. Zuo Jias face was red, and she couldnt face anyone.
Unable to break free, she could only lean her head against Fu rongtings chest, listening to his heartbeat and counting it.
Then, she realized that Fu rongtings heart was beating very, very fast.
Zuo Jia thought that she had counted wrong. She counted three times in a row, and Fu rongtings heartbeat was around 120 per minute.
That was impossible. Fu rongtings physical fitness was very good, and after long-term physical training, his heart and lungs had excellent function. A few days ago, old master Fu had even praised Fu rongtings heart rate, which was 55 per minute, close to the worlds best athletes.
Zuo Jia didnt dare to count anymore.
She had discovered the secret deep in Fu rongtings heart.
This secret made her even more ashamed.
She obediently shrank into Fu rongtings arms, but he held her tighter and tighter.Jia Jia, Im very happy that you cane.
Zuo Jia didnt know how to respond to him, so she just listened quietly without saying anything.
But now, she finally understood Lou Zilings situation. She also understood that Lou Zilings rejection of her and not giving her any hope was the right thing to do.
However, she could not be as heartless as Lou Ziling.
Maybe Lou Ziling hated her, which was why she could be so cold.
But she did not hate Fu rongting.
He was an outstanding man and an excellent soldier.
For the sake of the countrys stability and the safety of others, he gave up his luxurious vi and lived in a small tent instead. He was stationed at the border of the country and killed evil people.
If it wasnt for Lou Ziling, she might have fallen for him.
Her grandfather was also a soldier, and he was one of the people Zuo Jia respected the most.
She couldnt bear to be cruel to Fu rongting.
It wasnt until a figure slowly approached them that Zuo Jia nervously whispered,Fu rongting, someonesing ...
Fu rongting hummed lightly,Dont be afraid, theyre our people.
He took Zuo Jias hand and went back to the tent.Rest early. Ill send you off tomorrow morning.
Zuo Jia pulled her hand out of his.Alright, he said.
If he couldnt reject her face to face, then it was better not to meet her in the future.
Fu rongting gave the only small bed and nket to Zuo Jia and settled her down. He went out to eat something, then drove around the various defense points to make sure there were no problems before returning to the camp.
He took a shower in the nearby stream and returned to his tent, still covered in water.
The bed was given to Zuo Jia. Fu rongting spread out his camouge uniform on the ground andy down.
Zuo Jia hesitated for a while and said in a soft voice,Fu rongting,e up and sleep. The floor is too cold.
No need, just go to sleep. Dont worry about me.
How can we do that? Youll catch a cold like this.
Zuo Jia used the light from her phone screen to illuminate Fu rongtings floor bed and saw that he had only put on a piece of clothing and was about to sleep with his hair wet. She suddenly got up, walked to her suitcase, and took out a white towel.
Dry your hair before you sleep.
No, my hair is very short.
Zuo Jia finally realized Fu rongtings stubbornness. She bit her lip, sat down next to him, wrapped his head with a towel, and started to wipe it.
In the dark, Fu rongtings lips curled into a smile.

Trantor: 549690339
Zuo Jias movements were gentle, and she was so close to Fu rongting that he could smell the faint fragrance on her body.
Fu rongtings life at home was very delicate, but when he was in the Army or on a mission outside, he was actually very amodating. Since he became an adult, it had been a long time since someone took care of him like this.
Zuo Jia had the potential to be a good wife and mother.
After drying her hair, Zuo Jia dragged Fu rongting to the bed. She was actually too embarrassed to sleep with him, but she couldnt bear to let him sleep on the cold floor.
In order to prevent Zuo Jia from falling off the bed, Fu rongting slept on the outside, while Zuo Jia slept on the inside of the tent.
The bed was not big, so no matter how much Zuo Jia shrank back, her back could still touch Fu rongtings back.
With such a close distance, Zuo Jia couldnt fall asleep no matter what.
She wanted to turn over, but that would mean that she would touch Fu rongting again. Sheid on her side, and when her body was about to stiffen, Fu rongting turned around and pulled her into his arms.
Zuo Jia was shocked and pushed him away.Fu rongting!
Yes.
Fu rongtings voice was light and emotionless, but Zuo Jia felt that his body was very hot, like a small stove.
Dont be soft-hearted next time. Its easy to get into danger sleeping in the same bed with a man. Be more heartless and let him sleep on the ground.
He held Zuo Jia in his arms and moved his arms to make her morefortable. He said softly, Dont be afraid, I wont do anything. I just want you to have a good sleep.
Zuo Jias heart was beating like a drum. She couldnt fall asleep when he was holding her like this, okay?
She had kindly asked him to sleep on the bed, but he had said it.
Zuo Jia bit her lip and thought to herself,next time, Ill just let him sleep on the ground!
The night passed, and Fu rongting really did nothing. He was a gentleman, and Zuo Jia had fallen asleep in his arms.
His arms were very warm. It was winter, and the weather was cold, but Zuo Jia felt warm all over.
After getting out of bed, Zuo Jia felt a little awkward and did not dare to look Fu rongting in the eye.
However, she soon realized that Fu rongtings expression was indifferent, as if he had only hugged a piece of wood to sleepst night.
Zuo Jia tried tofort herself by deceiving herself and herself. She would just treat it as if she was being hugged by a piece of wood.
After having a simple breakfast, Fu rongting drove Zuo Jia to the airport.
There seemed to be no reluctance to part at all, only relief.
As Zuo Jia dragged her suitcase and boarded the ne, she secretly made up her mind that she would nevere here again, and she would never see Fu rongting again.
Fortunately, Fu rongting was a gentleman, or else who knew what would have happenedst night!
Zuo Jia returned home in the falling snow. She stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the vi, looking at the vast expanse of white outside the window, and suddenly thought of Fu rongting.
The winter climate in city W was warm and it rarely snowed. City K was even colder than city W, so he wondered if it was snowing now.
Would he still go to sleep after a shower without drying his hair?
Perhaps, he couldnt even sleep because of the mission?
Fugitives would not run around in broad daylight. They would usually escape at night when they could not see clearly.
Zuo Jia thought for a while and suddenly smiled.
It seemed that it was not bad to make another friend. At least, her mind would not be filled with Lou Ziling.
Zuo Jia had returned to work in the government. With her father, Zuo Yan, as the mayor, her daily work had been quite smooth, and no one had made things difficult for her.
However, what made her feel troubled was that she had many suitors.
After working for less than a week, bad news came from home.
Zuo Jias grandfather, Xi Guohua, was in critical condition due to a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. The hospital had issued a death notice and asked the family to prepare for his funeral.
Xi Ying cried herself unconscious a few times. When Zuo Jia arrived, there were already many people in the room with Xi Guohua.
Xi Yings eyes were red and swollen. She held her fathers hand with one hand and wiped away her tears with the other.Dad, Jiajia is here to see you. Dont you like her the most? Youre the one who gave her her name. Quickly open your eyes and look at her!
Zuo Jia couldnt believe that the thin old man lying on the bed was her grandfather!
Half a month ago, she had seen him. He was in good health, wearing sses and working at the table. He was in good spirits!
At that time, he was still trying hard to match her with Fu rongting, and he loved to make fun of them.
His heartyughter was so clear!
Zuo Jia stepped forward and held Guohuas other hand, tears streaming down her face.Grandpa, its Jiajia. Grandpa, wake up. Dont scare me, okay?
Perhaps this was the granddaughter that Guohua loved and worried about the most. Hearing Zuo Jias voice, he, who had not opened his eyes for three days, slowly opened them.
It took him a while to recognize the girl in front of him. She was the girl he had loved since he was young.
He wanted to raise his hand to stroke his granddaughters head, but after trying several times, he couldnt raise his hand.
Jiajia, be good, dont cry
His voice was so low that it couldnt be heard, but Zuo Jia heard him.
This was the mostmon sentence he used to coax her.
Her grandfather had always treated her as a child who had not grown up. When they were eating, he would say,good Jiajia. When they were drinking water, he would also say,good Jiajia. Every time he visited her, he would happily say,my Jiajia is the best.
Zuo Jia couldnt help but cry out,Grandpa, get well soon. I dont want you to lie down like this. I dont like it!
She had been obedient since she was young and was not afraid of injections. She rarely cried, and Guohua had never seen his granddaughter cry like this.
In his anxiety, he finally raised his hand.
His fingers didnt listen to him as he wiped Zuo Jias tears. Dont cry, dont cry. Grandpa is fine
It took a lot of effort for him to speak, and he didnt have much strength left after saying this. After a while, he fell into a deepa again.
Zuo Jia and Xi Ying were lying on the bed, crying so hard that they almost passed out.
Zuo Yan and a few officers who came to visit Xi Guohua were watching from the side, their eyes slightly red.
After a while, Fu rongtings grandfather, Fu Sheng, and father, Fu Wan, both came to visit Xi Guohua.
Fu rongting was not here. He had yet toplete his special mission and could not leave without permission.
Fu Sheng went up to Guohua and called out to him, but he did not respond.
Little Ying, Jiajia, dont cry.
Fu Sheng patted Xi Yings shoulder and touched Zuo Jias head. His voice was heavy.Elder Xis condition isnt too good. Send him to the intensive care unit first. Ill definitely get the best doctor for him!
Guohua had already had one surgery, but the results were minimal.
Fu Sheng discussed with the team of doctors in the Army Hospital and asked for Xi Yings opinion. They decided to operate on him again.
Guohua woke up on the day of the surgery.
This time, his mind was very clear, so he immediately began to make arrangements for his funeral.
His daughter, son-inw, granddaughter, and his goodrades were all by his side. Guohua was very pleased.

Chapter 1639: Getting the marriage certificate
Trantor: 549690339
After exining the important matters, he held Zuo Jias hand and smiled affectionately.Jiajia, Im not afraid of death. When I was young, I went to war and almost died a few times, but I was never afraid. Im just worried about you. Youre already 26 and youre still single. I cant even exin to your grandma when I go to hell. When your mom was your age, you were already a few years old!
His voice was very, very soft, as if it would dissipate at any moment, as if his entire person would disappear from this world at any moment.
Grandpa, Im getting married. Im getting married immediately! Zuo Jia sobbed. Just you wait, dont leave just yet, can you watch me get married?
Guohuas drowsy eyes suddenly brightened, but then dimmed again.Jiajia, be good. Dont mess around. Your lifelong happiness cant be sloppy. In the future, you must remember that you cant judge a person by his appearance alone. If youre not married before the age of 30, remember to try to get along with Rong ting. Hes the best child Ive ever seen. That Lou Ziling, you should forget about him. Hes not suitable for you. You must listen to Grandpa. Remember!
Zuo Jia didnt miss the glimmer of light in her grandfathers eyes. She made up her mind in an instant.Grandpa, I like Fu rongting too. Just wait, lets get married! Youre not allowed to sleep, Ill go find Fu rongting. Were having a wedding, you must attend!
Guohua was shocked.Jiajia, you Dont do anything stupid. Grandpa didnt mean it that way!
Zuo Jia hugged Xi Guohua, who had be thinner due to his illness. She wiped her tears and ran out of the hospital with her bag.
Not long after Zuo Jia left, Guohua fell unconscious again but this time was different. Perhaps he was worried about his granddaughter, so he would wake up every few hours and ask,Is Jiajia back? Is Rong ting here?
Zuo Jia had always been in contact with her mother, so she was very encouraged when she heard the news.
She took an overnight flight to K city, and when she arrived at Fu rongtings camp, it was already dawn.
It was the same soldier that Zuo Jia had seenst time who was guarding the small road.
Good day, sister-inw! The soldier saluted her immediately.
Zuo Jia looked at him and thought,he called me the right person.
Im looking for Fu rongting. Please help me call him.
Seeing that her eyes were red and swollen, as if she had cried, the soldier did not dare to dy and immediately called Fu rongting with the walkie-talkie.
Zuo Jia didnt have to wait too long before Fu rongting, dressed in military uniform, appeared beside her.
The soldiers were afraid of interrupting their conversation, so they retreated far away.
Zuo Jia looked up at Fu rongting, her voice a little soft.I have something that I need your help with.
Ill help you with anything. Get in the car!
Zuo Jia was pulled into the car by him. Seeing him leave the camp quickly and drive to the city, she couldnt help but ask him,Where are you taking me? I cant go anywhere right now, I have to hurry home!
Fu rongtings eyes were fixed on the road ahead, and he said lightly, Lets go to the Civil Affairs Bureau now to get our marriage certificate. Are youing?
You know about it? Zuo Jia was surprised.
I know.
I know Im being a little selfish. Zuo Jia lowered her head and said in a low voice,but this is the only hope to save Grandpa. He only likes you to be his grandson-inw.
Fu rongting nodded,yes, I know. Now, are you going home or are youing with me to the Civil Affairs Bureau?
I didnt bring my household register. Can I get my marriage certificate?
Im here. You just have to bring yourself and you can get your marriage certificate!
Alright, lets go! Zuo Jia nodded immediately.
More than two hourster, Fu rongting and Zuo Jia came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, each holding a small red booklet.
Zuo Jia was a little dazed. She was married just like that? Why did it feel like a dream?
She and Fu rongting didnt feel like a married couple at all, and they were very distant.
Do you need me to go home with you?
Fu rongtings voice was t and emotionless, but Zuo Jia felt that he might not be happy.
With his qualifications, he could find a girl who loved him deeply, be in love with her, and spend the rest of his life together.
He would not be forced to marry her like he was now.
Will I dy your mission if you apany me back?
Youvee at the right time. The mission waspletedst night, and all the criminals have been arrested. Today, we just need to escort them to the prison. Im not in charge of the rest.
Originally, Fu rongting was supposed to be the one leading the escort, so this was a good time to take credit.
But in Fu rongtings eyes, no amount of credit was as important as Zuo Jia s, so he didnt even want todays credit.
Zuo Jia could see the exhaustion on Fu rongtings face. His military uniform was stained with grass and mud, and his trousers were stained with dried blood that had turned ck.
Im going to buy some suitable clothes and take a shower. I cant go to see your grandfather like this.
Fu rongting was very efficient. He found the nearest shopping mall and hotel, bought clothes, took a shower, cleaned himself up, and took Zuo Jia on the ne.
He had not eaten the entire night. He only felt less thirsty after drinking three bottles of mineral water on the ne.
Zuo Jia felt guilty and uneasy. She apologized to him in a low voice,Im sorry
Fu rongting did not mind.Its okay. I often go without food or water for a long time when Im on a mission. Im used to it.
Hearing him say this, Zuo Jias heart ached even more. She ordered food for Fu rongting and watched him eat quietly, only to realize that she had not eaten anything either.
However, she was worried about her grandfathers condition and could not eat anything. She only drank a ss of milk to fill her stomach.
They rushed back to the hospital, but Guohua was still unconscious.
When he woke up again, Zuo Jia and Fu rongting called out to him in unison,Grandpa!
Zuo Jia looked at Fu rongting in surprise. Fu rongtings handsome face was smiling, as if he was very happy to be married to Zuo Jia. He smiled at Xi Guohua and said,Grandpa, Im married to Jiajia!
Really?! Guohuas eyes widened.
Fu rongting nudged Zuo Jia lightly and took out the marriage certificate, showing it to Xi Guohua.
Zuo Jia came back to her senses and quickly took out her own book.Grandpa, its true. Weve registered our marriage, but we still need to hold a wedding. Can you help us? I dont feel at ease with anyone else!
Xi Guohua was not the only one who was shocked by the two of them. Zuo Jias parents and Fu rongtings parents were also shocked!
Arent the two of them too efficient?
This marriage certificate isnt fake, right?
In front of everyone, Fu rongting wrapped his arms around Zuo Jias waist and gently kissed her on the forehead. Then, ignoring Zuo Jias shyness, he held her hand and asked Xi Guohua for his opinion very formally,Grandpa, which day do you think we should hold the wedding? Where should we set the location? Why dont you discuss this with my grandfather for a few days?
Guohua was suddenly in high spirits, and even his face seemed to be ruddy.Good, good, good! Old Fu,e quickly, lets discuss this! Zuo Yan, wheres your dad? His granddaughter is having a wedding!
Chapter 1640 - Why are you not pregnant yet?
Chapter 1640: Why are you not pregnant yet?
Trantor: 549690339
My dad came to See You Yesterday. Dont you remember? Zuo Yanughed. He just went overseas for an interview today. Hell definitelye back as soon as hes done with work!
It was rare that Guohua was no longer drowsy, as if he would pass away at any moment. Everyone surrounded him, discussing Zuo Jia and Fu rongtings marriage.
This time, when he woke up, he held on longer than any other time.
It wasnt until he was exhausted that Xi Ying let him sleep.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief after Guohua fell asleep. They called the doctor over and the doctor was surprised.The situation is not bad! This is more effective than any medicine!
After the doctor left and the people who came to visit Xi Guohua left, Xi Ying hugged Zuo Jia and cried,Jiajia, you scared me. Is your Grandpa okay? We have to thank Rong ting, you must live well with him.
Zuo Jia was even more grateful to Fu rongting, because he knew that the person in her heart was not him. She only married him to let Xi Guohua live.
The next day, Guohua woke up early to prepare for his granddaughters wedding.
Xi Ying didnt agree and dragged on for five or six days before letting him leave the hospital.
Guohua was extremely anxious in the hospital. He cooperated with the doctors treatment every day and asked,I can be discharged, right? Im in good health, Im fine!
Zuo Jia stayed with him in the hospital every day. Fu rongting came in the day and left at night.
Guohua quickly noticed the problem.Jiajia, Grandpa thinks that youre being very polite with rongting. Youre both married, so you should live together! Why arent you two getting along!
Guohua felt that he had to work hard to live for a few more years.
His granddaughter was still childish. In order to reassure him, she married Fu rongting, but their hearts were not even close yet! He still needed to worry about them so that their rtionship could get better and they could have a baby!
Therefore, after Guohua was discharged, he forced Zuo Jia and Fu rongting to live together.
Since both families were the only children, Guohua allowed the two to stay at the fu familys house for one month and the Zuo familys house for another.
Due to health reasons, Guohua retired from his position in the military and returned to city W to live with his daughter and son-inw. At the same time, he was also supervising his granddaughter.
After Fu rongtingpleted a mission, he would have a short vacation. He took his things and moved into Zuo Jias Vi.
Zuo Jia wasnt used to having a man in the house.
Especially at night.
Fu rongting could see her uneasiness, so he said lightly, Well only be able to get past Grandpa if we sleep on the same bed. Dont worry, I wont touch you.
Zuo Jia looked at him, her eyes full of doubt.
Our marriage is just a temporary measure. I know you were forced to.
Fu rongtings voice was calm, as if he was talking about someone elses Affairs.Well live together for a year. After a year, if youre not happy, we can get a divorce.
Zuo Jia thought what he said was reasonable and it was a good idea, but she didnt know why she felt a little ufortable in her heart.
After a year, her grandfathers health would definitely stabilize. If she really got a divorce, it should not be a big deal.
With a way out, the pressure in Zuo Jias heart was greatly reduced, but after the pressure was gone, she looked at the indifferent Fu rongting and felt empty again.
At night, the bedroom was dark. Zuo Jiay on the left side of the bed, and Fu rongtingy on the right, separated by a pillow.
They each had a nket and didnt interfere with each other.
Zuo Jia had never liked to be close to Fu rongting, and Fu rongting had kept his promise and never overstepped his boundaries.
Although the two of them had be more familiar with each other, the distance between them had increased.
Guohua was busy nning the wedding for the two of them. There were two weddings in total-one for the XI family and one for the Zuo family.
Countless rtives and friends came to congratte them. When they saw Zuo Jia and Fu rongting standing side by side, they all praised them for being a talented couple.
After the wedding, Zuo Jia followed Fu rongting to the fu residence. It was the fu familys turn this month.
Fu rongting lived with his parents. Their vi had three floors, and Fu rongtings bedroom was on the second floor.
The fu couple was very satisfied with their daughter-inw, but they were not satisfied with their son.Rongting, its been almost two months since you two got your marriage certificate. Why isnt there even a trace of our grandson?
Zuo Jias face turned red instantly. She lowered her head and didnt know what to say.
Fu rongting, however, was very calm,how can it be so fast? itll take at least half a year. Mom, take care of Jiajias body. She can only raise the child when shes in good health. Shes too thin now, I cant bear to let her go.
Good, good, good! Im good at this. Youre really attentive, child. Lets take care of our bodies first and not be in a hurry to have children!
After hearing this, Zuo Jia couldnt even lift her head.
The two of them usually didnt even hold hands, so no matter how well they recuperated, they wouldnt have children.
Zuo Jia suddenly felt that her one-year agreement with Fu rongting was a little unreliable. If they really wanted to get a divorce after a year, both parents would definitely be strongly opposed to it.
After the new year, Fu rongting went on a mission again, while Zuo Jia returned to W city and lived in her vi, returning to the nine-to-five life she had before she got married.
Because of the diamond ring on her finger, the original fanatical suitors finally gave up.
Fu rongtings parents stopped urging them to have children, but Zuo Jias mother began to urge them,Jiajia, youve been married for so long, why havent you gotten pregnant yet? Is there something wrong with your body? Ill take you to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow. You cant be careless about this!
No need. Im in good health! Zuo Jia refused in a hurry.
Wouldnt the doctor give the cat out of the bag once he checked!
Xi Ying was very dissatisfied with her daughters taboo.We have to go and check it out. Its best to bring Rong ting with us. Its not certain whos the problem, but we can check it together. Its guaranteed!
Zuo Jia couldnt refuse. The next day, Xi Ying called her to the hospital, so she pretended to be sick.
Xi Ying came to see her and saw that she looked good. She assumed that Zuo Jia was on her period and it wasnt convenient for her to get a checkup. She gave Zuo Jia A few words of advice and told her to go for a checkup next week. Then, she went to work.
Fu rongtings mission ended very quickly and he returned a few dayster.
When he went to bed at night, he was still a gentleman. He put the pillow between the two of them and didnt touch Zuo Jia.
Zuo Jia didnt think there was anything wrong with sleeping like this at first, but the more she looked at the pillow, the more she felt it was an eyesore.
She had looked at the pillow too many times, and Fu rongting soon noticed it.
He took the pillow away and ced it on the bed. He asked lightly,Is this okay?
Chapter 1641 - A kiss
Chapter 1641: A kiss
Trantor: 549690339
Sure, Zuo Jias face suddenly felt a little hot.
She thought that Fu rongting would make his next move, but after waiting for a while, she found that he was still lying steadily on her bed, without any other intention!
Fu rongting!
Whats wrong?
Oh, its fine. You should sleep early!
Zuo Jia was a little discouraged. She turned around and couldnt help but pull at her cor and look down at her chest.
Before they got married, Fu rongting would still touch her and was very willing to hold her. Why did he not touch her now that they were married?
She felt a little wronged. Did she have to take the initiative?
She could not do it.
She sobbed softly and tried to keep her voice down, afraid that Fu rongting would hear her.
But Fu rongting still heard it.
He pulled Zuo Jia into his arms and pressed her under his body. Under the faint moonlight, he eagerly kissed her on the lips and kissed her fiercely.
Jiajia, kiss me!
Fu rongting used amanding tone, and Zuo Jia subconsciously listened to his words and responded to him with a choppy voice.
But after a moment, she reacted and turned her head away, unwilling to kiss him anymore.
She turned her head, and Fu rongting kissed her cheeks and ears.Jiajia, are you angry? Are you angry that I dont touch you?
Zuo Jia was tickled by his kiss, and the ce where his kissnded caused her to tremble.
She used to think that being intimate with Fu rongting was a very difficult thing, but now she found that it was something she couldnt help.
She felt even more aggrieved and felt that she was being outrageous. Fu rongting had only touched her a little, and she had already obeyed.
Fu rongtings breath was unstable, and he tried hard to control himself. He gently held Zuo Jia in his arms, his fingers caressing her delicate face, and asked her in a low voice,Jiajia, do you still like that person? Can you ept me?
Zuo Jias whole body stiffened, not knowing how to answer the question.
In fact, she had not thought about Lou Ziling for a long time.
Recently, Fu rongting had been the only person in her life. He was the one who slept beside her every day. Lou Ziling had gradually faded from her memory.
However, it was impossible for her to forget him so quickly. The pain of losing him was still lingering in her heart.
She didnt want to lie to Fu rongting, but she couldnt tell him the truth as she was in his arms.
She didnt say anything, but Fu rongting already knew the answer.
He let go of her and covered her with the nket.Go to sleep!
Zuo Jia suddenly felt that she was being a little cruel. What did Fu rongting do wrong to deserve such a punishment?
It was clearly all her own fault.
Zuo Jia felt guilty and wanted to hug Fu rongting, but she felt that she didnt even have the right to hug him. There was someone else in her heart, and it would be unfair to him if she hugged him.
She didnt know when she had fallen asleep, but when she woke up the next day, she found herself in Fu rongtings arms.
How did she end up in his arms?
Zuo Jia opened her eyes and raised her head slightly. She could clearly see Fu rongtings long eyshes and well-defined jaw.
She hadnt even looked at him in detail!
He was actually so good-looking!
Zuo Jia reached out her fingers and touched his eyshes. Seeing that he didnt wake up, she couldnt help but touch his chin.
His beard was a little short and a little prickly, but he was also very fun to y with.
There was a huge difference between men and women. Fu rongting shaved every day, and Zuo Jia always thought that he looked the most handsome in the morning.
But now, he didnt shave and still looked very handsome.
He was like a Sleeping Prince, waiting for the princess to wake him up.
Zuo Jiaughed secretly. She seemed to have identally reversed the male and female protagonists of a fairy tale.
Fu rongting suddenly moved, and Zuo Jia was so frightened that she hurriedly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Then, a gentle kissnded on her lips.
Zuo Jia was too flustered when they kissedst night, so she didnt have a deep feeling.
But todays kiss, she truly felt the warmth and softness of Fu rongtings lips. Her senses were magnified countless times, and she was surrounded by Fu rongtings hot breath.
He didnt go deep, only giving her a light kiss, and then called her name in a low voice,Jia Jia, do you like me kissing you?
Zuo Jia knew that she had failed in pretending to be asleep. He must have woken up a long time ago, but he had lied to her on purpose!
Fu rongting!
Fu rongtings finger pressed on Zuo Jias lips. Dont call me that. Call me brother. It was nice when you called me brother when you were young. I liked it.
The word brother didnt mean much, but when Fu rongting said it, it inexplicably gave off an ambiguous feeling.
Zuo Jia was too embarrassed to call him that. She blushed and lowered her eyes. She bit her lip and refused to speak.
Fu rongting moved closer and slowly sucked on her lips, saving her red lips from her teeth and kissing them gently.
Jiajia, do you like it? If you dont like it, then tell me. I wont do it again.
The feeling of kissing was blissful and sweet. Zuo Jia liked it a little, but she was too embarrassed to say it.
She only took the initiative to kiss Fu rongting shyly to show that she liked him.
Encouraged, Fu rongting sucked on Zuo Jias lips deeply and lightly, holding her tightly with both hands.
When the morning kiss ended, Zuo Jias face was as beautiful as the morning glow.
She was pulled out of bed by Fu rongting, and he took her to the bathroom by the hand.
He put his arm around her waist and brushed his teeth with her.
After washing up, Fu rongting took a towel and wiped Zuo Jias face. Halfway through, he leaned over to kiss her. Zuo Jia was dazed by his kiss, and she didnt know when they had hugged and snuggled together.
Fu rongting had been restraining himself for a long time. Since Zuo Jia didnt reject him, he wished he could hold her from morning to night.
Her voice was gentle and soft, and it was very pleasant to hear.
After kissing for a long time, Fu rongting held Zuo Jias face and asked her in a low voice,Jiajia, do you like me? Even if its just a little bit, do you?
Zuo Jia didnt know if this was because she liked him, but she had gradually developed a reliance on Fu rongting.
When he kissed her, her heart was beating so fast that it was about to jump out of her chest.
Zuo Jia didnt say anything. Fu rongting lowered his head again, searching for her lips and kissing her deeply.
After kissing for a while, he would ask,Jia Jia, do you like me?
Zuo Jias lips were a little swollen from his kiss. She reached out her fist and lightly hit him. Dont kiss me, I wont be able to go out for a while
She leaned into Fu rongtings arms, her tone coquettish, but she didnt realize the sweetness she was feeling at the moment. She only felt that it was veryfortable to be with Fu rongting like this.
Fu rongting held her waist and coaxed her in a low voice, Its fine. We wont go out today. We wont go anywhere. Well just stay at home. What do you want to eat? Ill make it for you.
Chapter 1642 - Rong ting, you’re so silly
Chapter 1642: Rong ting, youre so silly
Trantor: 549690339
It was always a blessing to be doted on, especially by a newly-wedded husband. It would make one subconsciously be soft.
This kind of love was different from the love of parents and elders. Zuo Jia felt that if Fu rongting was like this every day, her married life would be perfect.
As expected, they did not go out the entire day.
Fu rongting was either hugging or kissing her. Zuo Jia was forced to call him brother a few times before he stopped kissing her.
Fu rongtings cooking skills were very good, and so was Zuo Jia s. At noon, Zuo Jia was his assistant, and at night, when Zuo Jia cooked, Fu rongting helped to clean up. The two of them cooperated very well.
At night, Fu rongting sat on the sofa, watching cartoons with Zuo Jia in his arms.
Of course, it was mainly Zuo Jia who saw it, and Fu rongting was just apanying her.
Jiajia, you watched cartoons when you were six years old. Why are you still watching cartoons at twenty-six?
Zuo Jia leaned on Fu rongting, peeled an orange, and stuffed it into his mouth, smiling.This means that I still have a childs heart!
Perhaps kissing was the best way to pull two people into a rtionship. In just one day, Zuo Jia had quickly regarded herself as Fu rongtings woman.
Fu rongtings expression was gentle. He pinched Zuo Jias face, took the oranges from her hand, removed the White fibers for her, and fed her one by one.
He didnt like to watch cartoons when he was little. But in order to keep Zuo Jiapany, he pretended to like it when he was eight years old. He sat next to her at home and watched cartoons for the whole night.
Perhaps she had forgotten about it, but he remembered it all.
But after a while, Zuo Jia suddenly said,You loved watching cartoons even more than me when you were young, have you forgotten?
Didnt you forget about me?Fu rongtingughed.
Who said that? I havent forgotten!
Of course, Zuo Jia remembered Fu rongting. He was her only brother since she was a child, but she had not seen him for so many years that she could not remember the little things that happened when she was young.
When she was young, she had really treated him as her own brother. She didnt know why she had be like this when she grew up.
Do you really think I like watching cartoons?
Fu rongting gently stroked Zuo Jias long hair, his tone full of adoration.I just wanted to apany you. Whats so good about cartoons? I think youre the best.
Zuo Jia had been beautiful since she was young, and Fu rongting had always thought that she was the most beautiful girl in the world.
When he grew up and traveled to countless ces in the world, he still felt that little Zuo Jia was the most beautiful.
So, when his grandfather went to visit Guohua, he went with him.
He was lucky to see Zuo Jia again. After twenty years, she had grown up into a beautiful and elegant girl. She was very beautiful and gentle. She had a kind of quiet and elegant temperament, which made people have a good impression of her.
Fu rongtings undisguised praise made Zuo Jia A little embarrassed.
When others praised her for her beauty, she would calmly say thank you. She knew that she was beautiful. She had heard too many praises since she was young and she was already used to it.
But Fu rongting had never praised her, so she had always thought that he thought she looked ordinary!
Zuo Jia touched her face and asked him in a low voice,Is it really good?
Her slightly shy appearance made her look very delicate, like a young girl.
Perhaps beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Fu rongting felt that Zuo Jia was almost perfect, even the small mole at the corner of her eye looked so cute.
Its really nice. Its nice everywhere.
Have you always been so good at coaxing people?
No, I just learned it. In the past, no one let me coax them, not even you. I had talent but couldnt disy it.
Zuo Jia smiled gently.And here I thought you didnt know how to talk. It turns out that youre good at talking.
Fu rongting hugged her, his forehead against Zuo Jia s, and said in a low and restrained voice,Jiajia, lets be a real couple! Ill take care of you for the rest of my life and love you forever. Can you forget Lou Ziling and love me instead?
Zuo Jias heart suddenly ached, and she hugged Fu rongting back with all her might, her voice muffled. Im sorry, its all my fault. I shouldnt have liked him. But I promise, thats all in the past. Give me some time, Ill definitely do my best!
Okay, Jiajia, we have a lot of time. As long as youre willing to try to like me, Im willing to wait for as long as you want! Fu rongting was somewhat happy.
Zuo Jias heart ached even more. She didnt even know when Fu rongting started liking her. She had experienced the feeling of liking someone, but this person didnt like her feelings. He was very careful every day, and she wanted to be good to him every day, but she was afraid of being disliked.
Fu rongting didnt touch her before because he was afraid she would hate him, right?
He liked her silently and did things for her silently, but he never said it. He was so simr to her in the past!
Rong ting, youre so silly! She said, tears slowly flowing out of her eyes.
This was the first time Zuo Jia had called him rongting. Fu rongtings heart trembled. He hugged Zuo Jia and said softly, Im not stupid. A girl like you is worth waiting for and protecting.
He kissed away Zuo Jias tears and carried her to the bedroom.
He turned off the light and hugged Zuo Jia in the dark. He said in a low voice,Ill hug you to sleep. You sleep beside me every night. Its very painful not to be able to hug you.
Zuo Jia bit her lip, raised her head, and kissed Fu rongting, indicating her agreement.
Fu rongtingughed. She actually took the initiative to kiss him, a great improvement!
For the first time since they got married, they hugged each other to sleep like a married couple.
Last night, Fu rongting took advantage of Zuo Jias sleep to secretly hold her in his arms. Tonight, he could finally hold her openly.
The next morning, when Xi Ying and Xi Guohua came to visit the young couple, they found that they were much more intimate than before. Zuo Jia no longer called him Fu rongting but Rong ting in a soft voice.
There was only a difference of one word, but it immediately made people feel that they were not so distant.
Guohua was overjoyed. He was worried that his granddaughter would still be thinking about Lou Ziling after their wedding and often reminded Zuo Jia to live a good life with Fu rongting.
Now it seemed that Zuo Jia had gotten used to her role!
However, Xi Guohua felt that it was still far from enough. He could see that Fu rongting liked Zuo Jia very much, taking care of her and amodating her in every way, but in a rtionship, one couldnt always let one person do everything.
Only by liking each other could they live a long life.
You two havent even gone on a honeymoon after getting married. Take advantage of Rong tings holiday and go. Enjoy the scenery for a few days and rx!
This was not the first time that Guohua had mentioned going on a honeymoon. However, Zuo Jia was still worried about his health and refused to leave city W.
Therefore, he worked hard to get better every day. He took medicine, exercised, and made huge adjustments to his diet ording to the doctors instructions. Even if he didnt like it, he insisted on eating all kinds of vegetables every day.

Fu rongting had always wanted to bring Zuo Jia out for a vacation, but Zuo Jia was worried about Xi Guohuas health, so he had never brought it up.
Going on a honeymoon was the most effective way to improve their rtionship.
He held Zuo Jias hand naturally and asked her softly,Jia Jia, do you want to go?
Zuo Jia looked at him, then at Xi Guohua and Xi Ying. She hesitated.
She wanted to improve her rtionship with Fu rongting and work hard to get close to him and be a good wife, but she was afraid that if she left, Xi Guohuas health would deteriorate again, and it would be toote for her to regret it.
Guohua knew what she was worried about, so he immediately said,Dont worry about Grandpa. Hes in good health now! The doctor said that as long as I maintain this state, I can live for at least another ten or twenty years. Your honeymoon wont be that long, right?
Guohua tried to persuade his granddaughter to go on a honeymoon.
Xi Ying also advised Zuo Jia.Go. Your grandfather is really much better now. Ill stay at home and take care of him. What are you worried about? Its a honeymoon, so you should take advantage of the newlyweds. Your father brought me there right after he got married. Now that I think about it, I still think it was wonderful!
Zuo Jia was moved by their words, and she looked at Fu rongting a little shyly.Rong ting, lets go!
Fu rongting nodded with a smile.Okay, then well go in two days. Well prepare our travel necessities.
Guohua pped his hands happily, Looking at the two of you being so sweet, this old man feels rxed all over, as if Im ten years younger! Little Ying, lets go quickly and let them clean up. We wont disturb them!
Xi Yan held her fathers arm and was also very happy.Dad, lets go! Theyll probably be three people when theye back from their honeymoon!
The father and daughter walked away,ughing. Zuo Jias face was red from their bickering, and it took a while for it to subside.
Jia Jia, lets go out and buy some stuff. Do you want to buy a dress? I want to take you to a warm ce. Do you have a city you want to go to?
Zuo Jia shook her head.No. I think theyre all good.
She had been abroad for quite a while and had been to many countries, but none of them had left a deep impression on her.
It was a little cold in city W, so a warm ce was a good choice. She was a little afraid of the cold.
Zuo Jia followed Fu rongting and drove her car to the mall.
Fu rongtings summer clothes were all at home, and he needed to buy some clothes and a pair of shoes.
Zuo Jia had never bought mens clothes before, so she excitedly helped Fu rongting pick out clothes and let him wear them for her.
Fu rongtings posture was tall and straight, and he had a good temperament. He was a natural clothes hanger, and he looked good in any set of clothes. Zuo Jia didnt know which one to choose.
Rong ting, just buy them all. Take a few to travel and leave the rest at home. Youll have to wear them anyway!
You picked them all for me, Ill take them all! Fu rongting agreed without hesitation.
Wasnt it just a few pieces of clothing? Zuo Jia had just said that he would look handsome in them, so of course he had to buy them all!
In the future, he would change his clothes for her to see every day!
After buying from this store, Zuo Jia saw another store with nice shirts, and she pulled Fu rongting to try them on.
Fu rongting had just changed his shirt and walked out of the fitting room when he met Lou Ziling.
Zuo Jia was waiting for Fu rongting outside the fitting room. At this moment, her face was extremely pale, and she even looked a little panicked.
Because the shirt she picked for Fu rongting was exactly the same as the one Lou Ziling was wearing!
She had subconsciously picked out clothes for Fu rongting in Lou Zilings style!
Lou Ziling usually wore a shirt, and Zuo Jia had always thought that it looked good. When she was picking out a shirt for Fu rongting just now, she had forgotten that Fu rongting didnt usually wear a shirt.
Fu rongting was a soldier, so he wore a military uniform most of the time. When he wasnt in his military uniform, he would wearfortable casual clothes.
However, Lou Ziling was wearing a shirt and a suit because she often had business meetings and negotiations.
The light in Fu rongtings eyes was cold. He stood there and looked at Lou Zilings shirt. Suddenly, he felt that his shirt was full of sharp needles, and he felt pain all over his body.
Lou Ziling saw Fu rongtings shirt and was slightly startled. He turned to look at Zuo Jia, who was next to him, and left without saying anything.
Fu rongting also turned around and returned to the changing room.
His eyes were slightly red as he slowly took off the clothes he did not usually wear and changed into his original casual clothes.
He took the clothes and walked out. Seeing Zuo Jias pale face, he smiled with red eyes.Jiajia, this dress doesnt suit me, so I wont buy it for now. Lets go, its time to buy your clothes.
Fu rongting put the shirt back and walked out first.
Zuo Jia quickly followed him. She wanted to exin, but she found that there was no way to exin it.
She followed Fu rongting in silence, her heart full of uneasiness.
She was afraid that Fu rongting would get hurt, and she was also afraid that he would be angry.
When she was picking out her own clothes, she didnt even try them on. She just bought two pieces and said in a low voice,Im done. Lets go home!
They went to the parking lot together. Coincidentally, Lou Ziling had just finished shopping for clothes. She took the clothes to his car, opened the door, and got in.
He saw Zuo Jia and Fu rongting, but he pretended not to see them. He treated them as strangers and would never have any connection with them in the future.
Fu rongting looked at Lou Zilings ck Jaguar and then at his wifes white Jaguar of the same model. His heart ached as if it was torn apart.
Could it be that Zuo Jia had never forgotten this person?
Was he just his substitute?
He knew that his external temperament was a bit simr to Lou Ziling s. They were both cold and had an obvious murderous feeling.
Zuo Jia couldnt have always treated him as Lou Ziling, right?
Although he had long known that the person Zuo Jia liked was not him, but someone else, Fu rongting had never felt as hopeless as he was at this moment.
He always felt that Lou Ziling would soon have his own children after getting married. Zuo Jia would slowly forget him and her feelings for him would also disappear.
Therefore, he didnt really mind that Zuo Jia had liked someone else.
Who hasnt liked someone before?
First love was often a failure, and they would eventually enter the hall of marriage. The person who would apany them for life would often be the person they metter.
He had been confident that he could live well with Zuo Jia.
But now, his confidence had been shattered!
As he watched Lou Ziling drive away, Fu rongtings voice became hoarse.Jiajia, Im very sad. You used the most devastating way to let me see your heart.

Chapter 1644: Sell the car
Trantor: 549690339
Zuo Jias face was pale. She reached out to pull Fu rongtings arm, but Fu rongting took a step back and didnt let her touch it.
Its not like that, Rong ting. I just Just thought that you would look good in that. I didnt mean it!
I know you didnt do it on purpose. You just subconsciously chose the same clothes for me as he did. Did he like to wear shirts? I dont like it, so dont get it wrong in the future.
Fu rongtings voice was not loud, nor was it harsh, but Zuo Jia felt scared.
She was afraid that she would ruin a good marriage!
Rong ting, dont be angry. I didnt miss him this time, really!
Zuo Jia felt that her words were a little pale and weak. She wanted to exin a little more, but Fu rongtings phone suddenly rang. He picked up the call. It was from the Army, and they had a new mission.
Fu rongting sent Zuo Jia home. They couldnt go on their honeymoon. Military orders were like mountains, and an urgent task was waiting for Fu rongting. He changed into his military uniform and took a taxi to the airport.
He didnt get angry, and he didnt even reprimand Zuo Jia. Before he left, he hugged Zuo Jia and said,Im sorry, I have an urgent task.
However, Zuo Jia felt very upset, and she would rather Fu rongting get angry.
Fu rongting left, leaving Zuo Jia alone in the house. She suddenly felt a lot more lonely.
In the past few days, Fu rongting had been at home with her every day, going wherever she went.
They stayed at home during the weekends, and Fu rongting would pick her up on time when she went to work. He was meticulous and attentive.
Thest time Fu rongting went on a mission, Zuo Jia only felt that she was very rxed after he left. She didnt have to face him every day, and her pressure was greatly reduced.
But this time, when Fu rongting left, Zuo Jia did not feel at ease at all.
She didnt feel anything when she went to work during the day, but when she got home at night, she would feel lonely.
There were traces of Fu rongtings life everywhere in the house. His sudden disappearance made Zuo Jias mind full of him.
However, Fu rongting was on a top-secret International Mission this time, and she could not go to him.
Every day seemed to be long, and half a month felt as long as half a year.
Fu rongtings Secret mission had ended, but he did not return. He was seriously injured and was sent to a top hospital abroad for treatment.
Knowing that Fu rongting was injured, Zuo Jias heart clenched.
As a family member, the Army sent a helicopter to take Zuo Jia to the hospital where Fu rongting was being treated.
Zuo Jia didnt have time to pack anything. She hurriedly flew over the mountains and seas and came to Fu rongtings side.
On a small bed in the hospital, the tall Fu rongting was lying there, his head wrapped in gauze, sleeping quietly.
Zuo Jia was terrified. She asked the doctor in English in a panic,How is he?
Hes been in aa for two days. He woke up once and told us not to tell you about his injury, then he fainted again. His condition isnt too good, but well do our best to save him.
After the doctor left, Zuo Jia sat by the small bed and gently held Fu rongtings hand, cing it on her face for a long time.
She asked for hot water and a clean white towel from the hospital. She wet the towel and slowly wiped Fu rongtings body.
Zuo Jia and Fu rongting had been together for a long time. They had kissed and hugged each other, but they had never faced each other naked. They always wore pajamas when they slept at night. Zuo Jia didnt know that Fu rongtings body was so strong, and his muscles were well-defined and smooth, full of strength.
She was too embarrassed to look at him, but she didnt want the nurse to do such an intimate thing for her husband.
Fu rongtings body was covered in wounds of various sizes. Zuo Jia had already known on the way here that when Fu rongting was on a mission, the terrorists had detonated a bomb, and several soldiers had sacrificed their lives. Fu rongting was lucky to have survived.
Before this, Zuo Jia had never thought that she might lose Fu rongting one day.
However, this feeling was unusually clear now, so clear that even her heart ached.
She apanied Fu rongting, and ording to the doctors instructions, she called him a few times every one or two hours to talk to him.
Fortunately, the medical conditions of this hospital abroad were excellent, and the doctors were also top-notch. Fu rongting finally woke up after two days of unconsciousness.
When he saw Zuo Jia, he thought he was dreaming, until Zuo Jia cried andughed at him,Rong ting, youre awake! Im so scared! He then realized that this was not a dream.
Fu rongting looked around and confirmed that he was still in the hospital overseas. He said in surprise,Jiajia, youve been calling me before, havent you? I heard it, but I thought I was dreaming!
Zuo Jia cried and hugged him.Its not a dream. Im calling you. I was so afraid that you wouldnt wake up, so I kept calling you. I wanted you to open your eyes and look at me!
In the two days that Fu rongting was unconscious, he was notpletely unaware. He could hear someone calling him in a gentle voice, felt someone feeding him water and wiping his face.
However, he just couldnt wake up.
Dont cry, dont cry, Im fine!
Fu rongting gently patted Zuo Jias back. He had long forgotten all the unhappiness from before.
When he was out on a mission, he had missed Zuo Jia every day. He even regretted that he had only hugged Zuo Jia and not kissed her before he left.
The moment he was knocked out by the bomb, his desire to live was extremely strong. He couldnt die like this, and he couldnt bear to leave Zuo Jia.
Zuo Jia hugged Fu rongting and looked at him. He was alive and could talk to her. She was so excited that she kissed him randomly.Rongting, rongting
Fu rongting had just woken up and had no strength left. It was difficult for him to get up, so he could only let Zuo Jia take the initiative to kiss him. He couldnt take the initiative.
When he was better, he would kiss her properly.
Fu rongting was young and in good health. After he woke up, Zuo Jia took good care of him, so he recovered very quickly.
Three dayster, he could already move freely, not much different from normal people.
He wanted to leave the hospital, but Zuo Jia didnt agree.The wound on your head is very deep. Stay for two more days and leave when youre better.
His wife didnt let him leave, so Fu rongting was very obedient and wasnt in a hurry to leave. He stayed in the hospital every day. In the day, he would walk with Zuo Jia outside, and at night, he would hold Zuo Jia in the ward and listen to her read poems and stories to him.
Her voice was soft and beautiful, and it was a pleasure to listen to her read poems. Fu rongting felt that she had the potential to be a live streamer.
After two more days, Fu rongting was discharged from the hospital, and the helicopter sent the couple directly back to W city.
As soon as Fu rongting entered the vis courtyard, he saw that Zuo Jias white Jaguar was gone.
Jia Jia, wheres your car?
Zuo Jia held his hand tightly and whispered,Ill sell it,
Okay, Ill buy you a new er! Fu rongting was stunned for a moment before he smiled.

Chapter 1645: I miss you
Trantor: 549690339
Fu rongting said that he was very efficient in sending her a car. Zuo Jia went to work the next day, so he went to the 4S store and bought a car for her.
He drove his new car to pick up Zuo Jia from work and was coincidentally seen by Zuo Yan. Zuo Yan was very satisfied with his son-inw and asked about his injuries. Knowing that he was fine, he smiled and said,Its good that youre fine. During the few days when you were out on the mission, Jiajia couldnt eat or sleep well. She was thinking about you!
Zuo Yan wasnt exaggerating at all. Zuo Jia had been absent-minded for the past few days. She didnt look very energetic at work. When she was asked, she said that she didnt sleep wellst night.
Although Zuo Yans heart ached for his daughter, he felt that this was a good thing.
Thest time Fu rongting went out on a mission, Zuo Jia was still fine, even very light-hearted, and Zuo Yan even med his daughter for not worrying about her husband.
Fu rongting didnt expect Zuo Jia to miss him. Hearing Zuo Yans words, his eyes were full of smiles, and he didnt let go of Zuo Jias hand.Dad, Ive been thinking about Jiajia too!
After they got home, Fu rongting pressed Zuo Jia against the wall and whispered in her ear,Did you really miss me?
Zuo Jia was very embarrassed. She lowered her head and refused to speak. Fu rongting asked again,Did you miss me or Lou Ziling?
Zuo Jia suddenly raised her head and said anxiously,I miss you!
Fu rongtingughed in a low voice. He pressed his lips against Zuo Jias and kissed her passionately.I miss you too. You have to think of me every day in the future, understand?
Zuo Jia hugged Fu rongtings waist and took the initiative to kiss him back.
Their lips and teeth were intertwined, and their breaths were intertwined. Zuo Jia hadpletely forgotten who Lou Ziling was.
In her heart and eyes, there was only Fu rongting.
It was the first time that Zuo Jia realized that kissing could be addictive.
Fu rongtings kiss was sometimes overbearing and sometimes gentle, but Zuo Jia liked both.
She could feel his love for her from the bottom of her heart when he gently protected her.
When he domineeringly invaded her, she would find him very charming and easily conquer her.
The sky was already dark, and the lights were not on in the house. Neither of them had the time to turn on the lights.
Fu rongting held Zuo Jia in his arms and kissed her all the way from the living room to the bedroom.
He pressed Zuo Jia down on the bed and took off her clothes with dark eyes.
Zuo Jia was extremely embarrassed, but she didnt reject him. She only called him gently in a slightly uneasy voice,Rong ting
Jiajia, dont be afraid. Itll hurt a little, but itll be fine soon.
Fu rongting had no experience either, but he knew everything he needed to know.
Zuo Jia hugged him and refused to let him go.Thats it. Were husband and wife. Thats how it should be!
She gradually lost her mind and her voice broke. She didnt even know that she was already muttering.
After a spring breeze, Zuo Jia still felt weak and powerless the next day.
She leaned into Fu rongtings arms, naked, and shyly wanted to escape, but Fu rongting held her tightly.Where are you going? Just lie in my arms and dont go anywhere.
I Ill put on my clothes first
Why are you wearing clothes? Ill have to take it offter. Its so troublesome.
Fu rongtings tone was teasing, his fingers caressing Zuo Jias bare back, making her tremble in his arms.
Fu rongting lowered his head and sucked on Zuo Jias earlobe, his tone ambiguous.Jiajia, youre so sensitive. I cant control myself.
Zuo Jias face suddenly became hot, as if it was on fire.
She didnt know what was going on, but whenever Fu rongtings fingertips touched her skin, she would shiver, as if there was an electric current flowing through her body.
Fu rongting liked to see her so shy. It was their first time tasting the forbidden fruit, and they both had a strong desire for each others bodies.
He kissed all the way down from Zuo Jias ear. Fu rongting had only seen it through her clothes before, but now it was disyed in front of him without any obstruction, making his blood boil.
So, as he kissed her, sparks flew.
Fortunately, it was a Saturday, so Zuo Jia didnt need to go to work. Otherwise, she wouldnt have the energy to work today.
After being tormented by Fu rongting for a while, Zuo Jia bit her lip and pushed him away.Quickly get up, its time to eat!
I dont think I need to eat. Youre enough.
Fu rongting really didnt feel hungry. He was reluctant to let go of Zuo Jia, as if she would run away if he let go.
Rongting, Im hungry
Zuo Jia acted coquettishly and looked at him with pitiful eyes, afraid that he would do it again.
Fortunately, her coquettishness was quite effective. Fu rongting couldnt bear to let her suffer, and he would rather suffer himself.
Zuo Jia went to the bathroom to take a shower, then came out of the bathroom wrapped tightly in her clothes.
Fu rongting was lying on the bed naked. Seeing Zuo Jias face, he couldnt help butugh.Do you think that I wont touch you just because youre wearing this?
Zuo Jias face turned red. She knew it was useless, but she felt it was safer to wrap herself up.
She nced at Fu rongting, who was lying on the bed. He had a good figure, and his masculine charm made her blush and her heart beat faster.
She only took one look and didnt dare to look anymore.Hurry up and put on your clothes. You You cant do this!
Fu rongting got out of bed and casually put on some clothes. He lifted Zuo Jias chin and gave her a kiss.You were still hugging me and not letting go just now, touching me all over. Why dont you dare to look at me now?
Zuo Jias face turned even redder, and she mumbled something that Fu rongting could not hear clearly, her face full of shyness.
She was in a daze and couldnt help but touch Fu rongtings skin and kiss him, but she was sober now!
Fu rongting found Zuo Jia especially cute like this. He reached out and ruffled her hair, saying in a low voice,wait for me, and then went to take a shower.
He had been walking for a while, but Zuo Jias face was still burning.
She held her face in her hands and sat on the sofa in the living room, waiting for Fu rongting toe out.
He was in the bathroom, and they were only separated by a wall, but Zuo Jia missed him so much.
She finally understood why those people in love stuck together all day long and didnt want to be apart for even a second.
So, when Fu rongting came out of the bathroom, she burrowed into his arms andined,Why did you take so long to shower?
Chapter 1646 - Meeting again
Chapter 1646: Meeting again
Trantor: 549690339
Jiajia, I only took five minutes to shower.
Fu rongting found it funny, but he also liked how Zuo Jia was acting.
She was finally willing to stick to him now!
Previously, she didnt feel anything when they were separated for a long time. Now, she felt that five minutes was long.
Zuo Jia snuggled in Fu rongtings arms.Is it really only five minutes? I feel like Ive been sitting here waiting for you for a while!
How about this, well shower together next time.
That wouldnt do. Zuo Jia was too embarrassed to take a bath with him. Its so inconvenient to shower together!
Whats not convenient? It saves time and water. In addition, I can be your Coolie. You dont need to move, I can help you wash!
Seeing that he was getting more and more out of hand, Zuo Jia blushed and left Fu rongtings arms to go to the kitchen to cook.
Fu rongting followed her closely, wherever Zuo Jia went. They were almost Siamese twins.
The two of them were living a sweet couples world, and the n for their honeymoon was quickly put on the agenda again. They didnt gost time, but this time, they had to go no matter what.
Fu rongting had arranged all the itinerary and set off with Zuo Jia.
Because of his injury, Fu rongting had a long vacation this time, and Zuo Jia also took a long vacation. The two of them visited several famous scenic spots, and after a few days, their rtionship improved by leaps and bounds, and the sense of distance between them gradually disappeared.
On the sunny beach, Zuo Jia and Fu rongting strolled hand in hand.
She and Fu rongting were both barefooted, leaving two long footprints on the soft sand.
Among the people on vacation, there were couples and families of three.
Zuo Jia saw a little girl of mixed blood. She was as pretty as a doll, with big eyes and a small nose. She was very attractive.
This child is so good-looking. I want to take him home!
We dont have to fight for this, we can have one ourselves!
Fu rongting looked at Zuo Jia and smiled. He had been working hard every day these days, so it was very likely that Zuo Jia would get pregnant.
Zuo Jia had been very intimate with Fu rongting these days, and her shyness had lightened a lot after hearing him say this.Sure, then well have one. Do you like a boy or a girl?
Fu rongting smiled and whispered into Zuo Jias ear, Ill work harder. Lets try to have two or three children. Youre not allowed to beg for mercy at night anymore. Exercise more andst longer.
This time, Zuo Jia couldnt take it anymore. Her face was flushed, and she was too embarrassed to discuss this with Fu rongting.
Fu rongtings body was too strong, and he did not know fatigue. If he did not beg for mercy, he would be able to continue.
For the past few days, Zuo Jia had woken up veryte every day and had both breakfast and lunch together.
Fu rongting knew that Zuo Jia was easily embarrassed. It was fine when they were alone, but she would be shy if they were outside.
Just like now, when he kissed her in front of others, she would blush.
But in fact, there were countless couples kissing by the beach. Many girls were wearing sexy bikinis, but Zuo Jia was wearing a bohemian chiffon dress.
She would be embarrassed if she stood in front of Fu rongting in a bikini, let alone in front of outsiders.
Fu rongting felt that this was good, so that no one would stare at Zuo Jia. If any man looked at her, he would re at them as a warning.
Fortunately, there were countless sexy women on the beach, and most of the mens eyes were focused on them, so no one noticed Zuo Jia.
Their honeymoonsted a month, and by the time they returned from abroad, Zuo Jia hadpletely regarded Fu rongting as her husband.
She was very happy every day, and she even regretted getting married toote. She should have reunited with Fu rongting earlier!
After the vacation, Fu rongting went on a mission again.
Without hispany all of a sudden, Zuo Jia was a little out of sorts.
When she woke up every day without Fu rongting by her side, she would feel particrly lonely and miss him.
Moreover, Zuo Jia couldnt call him while he was on a mission. Unless Fu rongting asionally spared some time to call her, she couldnt take the initiative to contact him.
Since she couldnt see him and couldnt even hear his voice, Zuo Jias longing for him grew stronger.
After lunch, Zuo Jia returned to her office. Her work was easy. She had finished all her work in the morning and had nothing to do in the afternoon.
She rested her chin on her hand and was in a daze. Thinking of Fu rongtings handsome appearance, she couldnt help but smile.
She had always liked soldiers in military uniforms. Fu rongting looked especially handsome in his military uniform, and Zuo Jia had developed a special affection for military uniforms.
She was so absorbed in thinking about Fu rongting that she didnt hear her colleagues calling her several times.
Jiajia, what are you thinking about? Your friend is here, and hes looking for you!
Her colleague shook Zuo Jias shoulder and spoke to her in a very low voice, as if she was afraid that others would hear her.
Many people knew that Zuo Jia used to like Lou Ziling even though she was married. She even resigned from her official position for Lou Ziling and went to hispany to focus on dealing with thepany and the governments Affairs.
Therefore, Zuo Jias colleagues didnt dare to say Lou Zilings name. They only said your friend.
At first, Zuo Jia didnt realize that it was Lou Ziling. When she was brought over by her colleagues and saw Lou Ziling, she suddenly came back to her senses.
In the past, she had been eager to get close to Lou Ziling. But now, she wanted to stay as far away from Lou Ziling as possible!
Otherwise, if Fu rongting found out, he would be angry and misunderstand!
Zuo Jia kept a suitable distance from Lou Ziling. She had aplicated look on her face. However, when she saw Lou Ziling again, she didnt feel that kind of heart-fluttering feeling anymore.
She had been afraid that she would still like him, but now it seemed that her heart was with Fu rongting.
Zuo Jia had never thought that she would be able to face Lou Ziling so calmly one day. She used to love him so much that she almost married Luo Feiyang to help him and Jing Xi.
The past was like a fleeting cloud, and these things hadnt happened too long ago, but Zuo Jia felt that it was all from her previous life!
Is there something?
Zuo Jia looked at Lou Ziling with a face full of doubt.
Why would Lou Zilinge to her? Wasnt he supposed to not want to see her at all?
Lou Zilings expression was as indifferent as before.I didnt want to bother you, but Mayor Zuo is biased against me. Mypany couldnt pass all the checks, so I want to ask you for a favor.
ording to Jing Xis words, this was an undeserved disaster.
Originally, there would not have been so much resistance. However, because Lou Ziling had rejected Zuo Jia, the development of hispany had been hit and restricted by Zuo Yans most powerful attacks. Zuo Yans requirements for hispany were countless times stricter than otherpanies. They could not even pass the most basic industrial andmercial annual inspection.

Zuo Jia immediately knew what was going on. If it was in the past, she would have agreed to Lou Zilings request without hesitation.
But now, she wasnt sure if she could persuade Zuo Yan to open the passage for Lou Ziling.
Besides, Zuo Jia was a person with a temper. In the past, she didnt have a temper at Lou Ziling and put him first. She was willing to do anything for him because she loved him deeply.
However, now that she had walked out of that deep love, she would no longer do anything for him.
She was more concerned about Fu rongtings feelings.
Ill try. It might not work. Ill try my best.
Miss Zuo!
Lou Ziling called her lightly,Im here today to give you thepanys dividends. I said that you would have a share. I wont go back on my word.
He handed a check to Zuo Jia and said,This is what you deserve.
Without Zuo Jias help, Lou Ziling was restricted in all aspects.
In recent months, many people had questioned his identity. Countless distant rtives of the Li family hade to Rob the Li familys assets, especially the Li familys Manor, which made people jealous. Several groups of people had already argued with him.
Lou Ziling hoped to work with Zuo Jia. She had a huge influence on Zuo Yan, the mayor. If he paid her enough, she would help him clear the obstacles on his road of development. It was a win-win situation.
Zuo Jia didnt take the check,no need, keep it for yourself! You dont owe me anything for what I did to you before. I dont owe you anything anymore!
Zuo Jia turned around and left to talk to Zuo Yan about Lou Ziling.
Dad, are you giving Lou Ziling a hard time again? After all, hes a sessful entrepreneur in our city. You should support him and let him develop faster and better.
Zuo Yan frowned and said,Jiajia, dont tell me you havent forgotten about this person? You cant do this, you cant let Rong ting know that youve pleaded for him today! Hes so good to you, youll be sad if you know! Forget about Lou Ziling, or else our family will be letting the fu family down.
I didn t!
Zuo Jia stomped her feet anxiously.I dont have any other intention when I pleaded for him. I just feel that Im the reason why hispanys development is hindered in every way. I cant force him to his death even if he doesnt like me!
Im just setting higher standards for hispany. Of course, the project cant be approved if it doesnt meet the standards. Alright, you dont have to worry about this matter. I know what Im doing. You just have to care about Rong ting, you dont have to worry about the others, do you hear me?
Zuo Yan would not be strict with his daughter under normal circumstances, but he was unusually strict today.
He thought that his daughter was still concerned about Lou Ziling and was afraid that she would make a mistake. Even his tone was more serious.
Zuo Jia knew that her father would misunderstand her. She wanted to exin, but Zuo Yan asked,Did Lou Zilinge to see you today? What did he say to you for you to put in such good words for him? He clearly knows that you like him, but he still came to find you to work for him. What kind of heart does he have? Dont be fooled by him!
Zuo Jia blinked her eyes and said helplessly,Do I look like I still have feelings for him when I plead for him?
Yes! Zuo Yan nodded his head seriously.
Alright then, I wont ask for more, Zuo Jia sighed.
Since even her father would misunderstand her, it would only cause more misunderstandings if Fu rongting found out.
Zuo Jias pleading was unsessful. On the other hand, Zuo Yan raised the standards of Lou Zilingspany because he was angry that Lou Ziling hade to see his daughter again. All of Lou Zilings projects were stagnant and even paralyzed.
Lou Ziling had many smallpanies and newpanies that were waiting to be registered. Now, all of them were stopped.
When Jing Xi was pregnant, Lou Ziling didnt tell her anything about thepany. She only apanied her on the most rxing topics every day.
After she got pregnant, Jing Xi had not been able to eat for a long time. She had been vomiting. Lou Ziling didnt even care about thepany during that time. He stayed with her every day. As long as she wanted to eat, he would buy her anything.
Now that Jing Xi was five months pregnant and the fetus was stable, she was in a much better condition and liked to eat everything.
However, she was still slender, and her abdomen was not too big. She still looked like a young girl when she wore loose clothes to cover her pregnant belly.
She lived a carefree life. She nted flowers and raised fish. asionally, she followed Lou Ziling to work for fun. Every day, she was as happy as a bird.
Ziling, should we buy a little dress for the baby? she asked.
She was pregnant with a daughter, and all Jing Xi could think about every day was how to dress her daughter up.
Sure, if you want to buy it, then buy it. Our daughter will definitely be a little princess in the future and will wear many dresses!
Lou Ziling was walking with Jing Xi in the garden.
Im really looking forward to her birth. I really want to know what the baby looks like! Do you think shell look like you or me?
Jing Xis eyes were full of joy. Lou Ziling felt that seeing her so happy, all the messy things outside could not affect him anymore.
Let her look like you. Shell be the most beautiful if she looks like you!
At least, Lou Ziling felt that no one couldpare to Jing Xis looks.
She had inherited her parents good points and had delicate features. If the child she gave birth to was like her, she would be another little beauty.
Then when I have another child, Ill let him be like you! Im sure youre handsome!
Jing Xi had survived her morning sickness and was in a good condition. She felt that being pregnant was a very happy thing. Her daughter had not been born yet, but she was already nning to have a son.
Lou Zilings expression was gentle, and there was a faint smile on her face. The two of them spoke as if the child could really grow up ording to their wishes.
You still want to have another child? didnt you say that you dont want to have another child? Shes too noisy and tormented you so much that youve lost weight.
Eh, did I say that? Shes so well-behaved now, and I like her a lot. Im looking forward to her calling me mom after shes born! One was definitely not enough. She had to give birth to a few more so that they could keep each otherpany! Look at how happy you are with your sister and I have my brother!
Lou Ziling didnt think it was a happy thing to have siblings. Lou ruofeis existence didnt affect him much.
As Jing Xi was chatting with him, she suddenly thought of Zuo Jia.
I heard that Zuo Jia is married. Is that true?
Lou Ziling nodded.Yes. Whats wrong? she asked.
Zuo Jias wedding was a Grand one. Almost everyone in the city knew about it. However, Jing Xi was having severe morning sickness at the time. She had been lying at home and did not pay attention to what was going on outside. Lou Ziling naturally did not mention Zuo Jia to her, in case she got angry.
He didnt even dare to mention Zuo Jia in front of Jing Xi. Every time he did, they would get into a fight.
Since she had taken the initiative to ask about Zuo Jia today, it seemed that she didnt mind Zuo Jia that much anymore.
Jing Xi held Lou Zilings hand tightly and said softly,Did her father give you a hard time again? Why didnt you tell me?
Chapter 1648 - The meddlesome woman
Chapter 1648: The meddlesome woman
Trantor: 549690339
Lou Ziling didnt expect Jing Xi to know. He smiled and said,Its nothing. Its just a small matter. If I tell you, youll be Jealous Again. Thats not worth it!
This is no small matter. I wont allow them to bully you!
Every time the Zuo family was mentioned, Jing Xi would get angry. She wanted to teach Zuo Jia A lesson, but Lou Ziling wouldnt let her. Plus, she was pregnant and wasnt suited for fighting, so she had to give up.
Ill tell my dad and brother to go and meet Zuo Yan! Whats so great about being a Mayor? he should be put in jail for abusing his power!
Lou Ziling gently held Jing Xi in her arms and kissed her sideburn.This is my business. You dont have to worry about it. I can handle it. Theres no need to trouble them.
It would be so embarrassing to let his father-inw solve this kind of thing!
However, Lou Ziling had a headache about this.
He went to look for Zuo Jia. He thought she would help him get rid of all the obstacles in no time like she had done in the past, but he didnt expect that the obstacles would increase.
Lou Ziling finally realized how much Zuo Jia had done for him in the past.
He had even gotten used to Zuo Jias silent work and her unconditional help.
When she had been in thepany, everything had gone smoothly. He had traveled with Jing Xi for many days, and after they had returned, thepany had not been in any chaos. He had thought that thepany had developed well, but he had only found out after Zuo Jia had left. She had been sleepless those days and had solved all the problems.
Zuo Jia was the only way to solve the problem of the governmentswork.
Lou Ziling was well aware of this.
Therefore, he went to see Zuo Jia again, and this time, he prepared a very expensive gift.
There were many people at her workce, so Lou Ziling didnt go there again. Instead, he asked her to go to a quiet coffee shop for a discussion.
Zuo Jia was a little uneasy. She felt that she had let Fu rongting down by meeting Lou Ziling. However, her feelings for Lou Ziling were not ordinary, and she couldnt bear to leave her in the lurch.
She was so nervous that she didnt see the stairs when she entered the caf and almost fell.
Lou Ziling reached out her hand to help her up, but she was so scared that she quickly pulled her hand back and fell to the ground.
Lou Ziling looked calm. She grabbed her arm and pulled her up.Zuo Jia, youre too nervous. Rx.
Zuo Jias forehead was already covered in sweat, and her face was a little pale. Im fine, lets go in!
Lou Ziling saw that she didnt look like she was fine. He felt helpless. Why did she make it seem like she was having an affair when they were just meeting?
She looked so flustered that people would think that they were doing something shameful when they saw that there was nothing between them!
It seemed that Zuo Jia really cared about her husband and was afraid that he would be angry.
Lou Ziling could understand her concerns. After all, if Jing Xi knew that he had met her, she would be jealous and angry.
So, after entering the cafe, he found a corner to sit down and went straight to the point.I need your help. Ill let go of everything that happened in the past. Heres five million Yuan as a deposit for the cooperation. Thepany will give you dividends every year in the future. Youll handle the connections with the government.
Lou Ziling put a bank card in Zuo Jias hand, but she immediately pushed it back.No, I cant take it! Ive already told my father about your matter, but I cant convince him now. Dont be too anxious, wait for him to calm down, and Ill help you solve those things.
From Zuo Jias point of view, she was the one who had caused Lou Zilings trouble, so she had the obligation to help him solve it.
She didnt want to take Lou Zilings money. If she did, she would feel bad.
However, Lou Ziling was determined to give her money. She would only feel uneasy after receiving the money and would do her best to help him.
He had always been cruel to others. Other than Jing Xi, all the other women were the same to him. They could all be used to expand his resources.
However, Zuo Jia was different from his previous girlfriends. She had once given him her true feelings, so Lou Ziling could not keep looking for her.
Take the money, and the dividends will be transferred to this card in the future. This is a cooperation, and there is no other meaning. I wont look for you again after Ive solved my problem here to avoid any misunderstandings.
Zuo Jia couldnt refuse, so she took the card.
She left the cafe first, carrying her bag and entering the new car that Fu rongting had bought for her.
She turned her head and saw Lou Ziling walk out of the cafe. She smiled bitterly as she watched him get into the car and leave with a cold expression.
Now that she had walked out of that kind of love, she realized that Lou Ziling was such a cold person.
When she was useful, he would use her without hesitation. When she was useless, he would kick her away coldly.
This persons heart was made of stone, right?
Or perhaps, his heart was soft and warm, but that only belonged to Jing Xi.
Zuo Jia gently touched the bank card. Lou Zilings body temperature was still on the card, but it only made people feel cold.
Sometimes, money could reflect a mans love for a woman, and sometimes, it could also reflect a mans ruthlessness.
In television dramas, the best way for a man to send a woman away was to give arge sum of money and then say,Please leave!
Zuo Jia leaned on the steering wheel and gradually regained her senses.
Thest bit of affection she had for Lou Ziling had disappeared.
She felt extremely lonely at the moment, and her longing for Fu rongting was unprecedentedly strong.
Fu rongting, who was being missed by Zuo Jia, received a bunch of photos on his phone.
All the photos were of Zuo Jia and Lou Ziling together. Thest one was of Lou Ziling driving away. Zuo Jia was sitting in the car and looking at him deeply.
The person who took the photo was obviously very skilled and had received professional training.
After the photo was sent, Fu rongtings phone rang, and he heard a very familiar female voice.Rong ting, what a coincidence. Your wife came to my caf for coffee. I think you know that shes dating another man behind your back. You wont me me for being meddlesome, right?
The womans voice was as gentle as water, and it was different from Zuo Jias gentleness. Her gentleness had a hint of charm, and the end of her voice was lingering, making people blush and their hearts beat faster.
Just by hearing the voice, a word would appear in ones mind: Stunner.
But Fu rongting was not shaken at all. His eyes were cold, and his voice was icy.Wu Wei, your hands are too long!
The person who took the photo was so professional. Obviously, she didnt take the photo of Zuo Jia and Lou Ziling on the spur of the moment. She had nned it all along. She was probably waiting for Zuo Jia and Lou Ziling to meet.
Wu Wei was exposed, but he wasnt embarrassed at all. He smiled charmingly,Thats right, my hands are long. Who asked you to not like me? If Im not doing well, Ill be very jealous if you guys are doing well!
Ever since she was abandoned by Ji moxuan, Wu Wei began to use her beauty to conquer all kinds of powerful men. She felt that Fu rongting was the most outstanding potential stock, and she had failed to seduce him countless times.
Chapter 1649 - Divorce!
Chapter 1649: Divorce!
Trantor: 549690339
Although he failed to conquer Fu rongting, Wu Wei was no longer the same as before.
Not all men could be like Fu rongting, who treated a beauty as a skeleton and was indifferent to the temptation of a beauty. Wu Wei became the mistress of many people. Not only did he own his own luxurious vi, but he also became rich overnight. His influence was not to be underestimated. No one couldpare to her ability to whisper sweet nothings to others.
If a beautiful woman paid everything regardless of the price and used unscrupulous means to plunder, the return would be jaw-dropping.
Wu Wei didntck power and money. She only needed a young and handsome man who truly loved her.
After serving old men for so long, she felt disgusted at the sight of old men. Deep down, she liked young and tall men like Fu rongting more and more.
She was jealous of Zuo Jia and Jing Xi. Just because they had a good family background, the two of them had lived like pampered princesses. And she could only be reduced to an old mans lover, never to see the light of day!
On what basis?
She was going to destroy their happiness!
She knew that Fu rongting didnt like her, but she didnt care. Destroying other peoples families was her greatest pleasure.
After provoking Fu rongting, Wu Wei hung up the phone and sent the photo to Jing Xi.
She had already known that Lou Ziling was Li Xiao.
Not only was Li Xiao not disfigured, but he was also not disabled. He was very handsome!
Lou Ziling returned home and Jing Xi smiled at him as usual.Are you busy with work today?
Its alright.
If youre busy, go out and take a break. Dont tire yourself out!
I won t,
Did you hook up with any pretty girls today? Going on a date with a beauty?
Of course not! In the entire world, who else is a beauty other than you?
Lou Ziling did not hesitate to hide the fact that she had met with Zuo Jia. If she told her, Jing Xi would misunderstand.
Jing Xi snorted and showed him the picture she had received on her phone.Lou Ziling, youve learned how to lie, havent you? Youre so close to Zuo Jia, yet you still dare to hug her?
Lou Ziling looked at her phone and felt helpless.Who sent you this photo? I was just helping her up, when did I hug her?
The person who sent the photo also sent me a text message. She said that she was your lover! How many vixens have you seduced while Im pregnant?
Jing Xi pouted, her eyes aggrieved. She was on the verge of tears.
Lou Ziling quickly hugged her and kissed her forehead.Silly girl, do you really believe that? Im usually busy at thepany and Ill go home to apany you after work. Where would I find the time to hook up with others? Even if I have time, Im not interested. Dont let your imagination run wild and be good.
Youre lying! You went to see Zuo Jia today! Look at those photos, how intimate they are!
I went to see her today to give her money and let her work for me. Its not like I have any other rtionship with her.
Lou Ziling took Jing Xis phone and carefully looked at the photos and the message.How did this person get your phone number? She took these photos from very good angles and its easy to cause misunderstandings. Im afraid shes been nning this for a long time.
In fact, Jing Xi did not believe that Lou Ziling would find another woman behind her back. Their rtionship was so deep that ordinary people could not get involved.
Then why didnt you admit it when I asked you if you were dating someone else? Why dont you just say that youve met Zuo Jia?
I was afraid that you would misunderstand, so I didnt tell you. I wasnt moved when she wasnt married, so I wont have any thoughts about her now that shes married!
Lou Ziling coaxed Jing Xi for a long time. He finally let out a sigh of relief when she smiled.
She didnt know who was so vicious to send such a photo to Jing Xi while she was pregnant. It was obvious that they had bad intentions!
If he found out who did it, this person was dead for sure!
Lou Ziling and Jing Xi had a deep rtionship, and Lou Ziling had never liked Zuo Jia, so this matter was easily over.
However, it wasnt so easy for Zuo Jia.
Fu rongtings mission had ended, but he did not go home.
If Zuo Jia couldnt forget Lou Ziling no matter what, if he was the only one contributing to this marriage, Fu rongting would choose to let go.
He was afraid that he wouldnt be able to let go of Zuo Jia if he saw her when he got home, so he went straight to the hotel.
When Zuo Jia went to work during the day, he packed up his things and took them with him.
When Zuo Jia returned home at night, she saw that Fu rongtings belongings were gone.
Her heart felt empty, and she had a bad feeling.
Her phone suddenly rang, and the name Fu rongting appeared on the screen, making Zuo Jia A little nervous.
She picked up the phone, and Fu rongtings calm voice came from the other end.Jiajia, lets get a divorce!
What did you say?
I thought I could rece Lou Ziling. I thought I didnt mind that you used to like someone else, but it doesnt seem to work. You have him in your heart, but I cant stand it. Have you ever experienced the pain of not being able to breathe?
Zuo Jia didnt understand why things had suddenly turned out this way. Her eyes turned red, Whats wrong with you? You were fine before you left. Why do you suddenly want to divorce me? When did youe back? Why didnt youe home to see me?
Someone sent me a photo of you and Lou Ziling. Although she is not a good person, the photo is real. Jiajia, do you want to keep meeting Lou Ziling without me knowing?
The more Fu rongting spoke, the more his heart ached. His hands clenched into fists, and even his voice became cold.
No, youve misunderstood!
Zuo Jia was very flustered. Sure enough, there was no such thing as an impervious wall in the world. Sure enough, Fu rongting still knew about this!
Theres nothing going on between us. He just needs my help with something in hispany! Many of his projects have been restricted, and thepany cant develop. He came to me to cooperate!
If there were no photos, Fu rongting might have believed Zuo Jias words.
However, in the photos Wu Wei gave him, other than a few photos of Lou Ziling hugging her, the one that made Fu rongting feel the most heartache was Zuo Jia sitting in her car, affectionately watching Lou Ziling leave.
Zuo Jia had never looked at him like this when he left home to carry out dangerous missions.
Such an affectionate look made Fu rongting feel hopeless. He thought that no matter what he did, he could not rece Lou Ziling.
Zuo Jias exnation didnt help him at all. No matter how many words he had to say, they couldnt beat the truth in the eyes in the photo.
Jiajia, your grandfathers health isnt particrly good. Our divorce may agitate him, so you dont have to tell your family about us. If you need me to cooperate with you in acting, you can find me at any time.

Trantor: 549690339
Im not getting a divorce! Fu rongting, where are you? I have nothing to do with him, you have to listen to my exnation!
Zuo Jia burst into tears. She rushed out of the house and ran to the street alone. She asked Fu rongting where he was and looked for him anxiously.
Listen to me, I dont like him anymore. Im just doing him a favor, I wont see him again. Rong ting, dont leave! Where are you? Ille find you!
Jiajia, youre out of the house?
Fu rongting could hear the car honking from time to time, as well as the sound of Zuo Jia running. He immediately stood up from the sofa.Go back, its cold outside!
If you dont tell me where you are, Im not going home!
Fortunately, Zuo Jia knew Fu rongtings weakness.
His biggest weakness was his heartache for her. If she didnte home, he would definitely not sit by and do nothing.
Sure enough, after she cried for a while, Fu rongting couldnt stand it anymore and told her the address.
He was staying in a hotel very close to Zuo Jia s, and she knocked on his door a few minutester.
As soon as Fu rongting opened the door, Zuo Jia threw herself into his arms and cried,How could you do this? Were leaving just like that!
Arent you happy that Im leaving?Fu rongting hugged her and asked softly.
Im not!
Alright, stop crying. Be good, your eyes are swollen from crying.
When he couldnt see Zuo Jia, Fu rongting could have hardened his heart and left, but seeing her so sad, he couldnt bring himself to say the word divorce.
Then dont go. Ive been waiting for you toe home every day, but youve nevere back!
Zuo Jias tears kept falling. She reached out to hold Fu rongtings face, her voice choked with sobs and her tone sorrowful.Do you not like me anymore? You cant do this. I like you, and you dont like me anymore!
The girls hand was slightly cold but extremely soft and delicate. When it touched Fu rongtings face, it softened his hard heart.
Its not that I dont like you. Its because I like you too much that I want to leave. If you like someone else and go on a date with someone else, its too much for me. Im not that generous to let my wife be good to another man.
Zuo Jia shook her head desperately,I didn t! My dad has set strict conditions for him, so many of hispanys projects cant be carried out. No one can help him except me!
Fu rongting sighed in his heart. He didnt know if he should believe Zuo Jias words.
The decisiveness of a soldier that he had on him was of no use to Zuo Jia.
If she cried, his hard armor would copse.
Fu rongting held Zuo Jia and gently patted her back,forting her andforting her.
That night, Zuo Jia stayed with him in the hotel and refused to leave.
Shey in Fu rongtings arms, but she was not at ease.Rong ting, do you not believe me?
Fu rongting didnt say anything. He still had some doubts in his heart. He didnt think that Zuo Jia would forget Lou Ziling so easily.
He thought for a moment, then took out his phone and showed Zuo Jia the photos.
Zuo Jia was shocked and guilty when she saw the photo. She never thought that someone would take a photo of her meeting with Lou Ziling and send it to Fu rongting.
The scene of her falling in the cafe and Lou Ziling reaching out to help her looked like he was hugging her.
The way she looked at Lou Ziling was very affectionate in every photo!
No wonder Fu rongting was angry!
These photos are too deceptive. Rong ting, dont believe them!
Her face was full of anxiety and her clear eyes were full of anxiety, as if she was afraid of losing him.
She had never been good at lying, nor did she like to lie.
She wasnt very good at acting, and at this moment, she was showing her true feelings.
Fu rongting looked at the girl in his arms and his voice became gentle.Okay, I dont believe you, but it must be true that you went to see him, right? If you really need to see him next time, can you bring me along? Or, he can look for me if he needs help.
Zuo Jia looked at him in a daze. After a long time, she said, Youre not angry anymore? Im so scared that youll really divorce me. I wont see him again. Ive already let him go in my heart, really!
Fu rongting kissed her gently.You can have a friend of the opposite sex, but itd better not be him. Ill be jealous. We wont divorce. Well always be together until we grow old. When I was very young, I wanted you to be my bride. Jiajia, my love for you is much deeper than you think!
Zuo Jias heart ached. She hugged Fu rongting tightly and kissed his lips and cheeks.
She felt that she had missed a lot. She once thought that she had missed Lou Ziling, but now she found that the person who had really missed was Fu rongting.
They should have fallen in love a long time ago!
If she had fallen in love with Lou Ziling earlier, she would not have had Lou Ziling in her eyes.
If she could turn back time, she wanted to be his bride from a young age!
Zuo Jia had never been so proactive before, and Fu rongting was a little overwhelmed by the favor. He could feel the love in Zuo Jias kiss.
She had changed a lotpared to when they had just gotten married. Everything was getting better!
Fu rongting held her in his arms, his fingers reaching into her clothes and touching her gently.
From body to heart, she was his. This feeling was great!
He couldnt help but press Zuo Jia under him and hurriedly took off her clothes.Jiajia, lets have a child, okay?
Zuo Jia was a little embarrassed, but she still replied gently,Alright, will you not divorce me after we have a child?
Fu rongting lowered his head and kissed her.I wont divorce you even if I have a child or not. As Long As You Love Me, I Will Always Love You. I will love you more than you love me!
His voice was low and hoarse, but it was full of passionate emotions. He had always suppressed his love in the bottom of his heart and didnt let Zuo Jia know, but now he didnt have to suppress it anymore!
The two bodies were stacked on top of each other, their skin touching. They could even hear each others violent heartbeats.
Fu rongting hadnt touched Zuo Jia for a long time, so the passion this time was particrly long.
He didnt know fatigue, and he had done it with Zuo Jia so many times that her whole body was sore.
Her softness and moisture satisfied Fu rongting. He held her in his arms and caressed her lovingly, the tip of his tongue brushing past her earlobe. He asked her in a low voice, Lets take a bath together, okay?
Zuo Jia pouted and looked at him. She pouted and said, Wont you bully me when I shower?
Of course I won t!
Really?
Its true! If I lie to you, Ill be a little dog!
Zuo Jia believed him and agreed to take a bath with Fu rongting.
But when they entered the bathroom, Fu rongting threw his words to the side!
Zuo Jia was pressed against the wall by him, and they were intertwined in the mist.
She had no strength left, and her whole body was soft, relying on Fu rongting to support her.
Fu rongting, youre lying!
Fu rongting couldnt help but chuckle.Well, you just realized it. Id be happy to eat you and turn you into a little dog!

Lou Ziling couldnt stand the fact that someone had secretly taken photos of her and sent them to Jing Xi in such an ambiguous way.
This kind of time bomb would explode at any time. Once was fine, but after a few more times, the fake would be real!
Lou Ziling followed the phone number that had sent the message to Jing Xi and quickly found out that it was Wu Wei.
However, to his surprise, when he found Wu Wei, Fu rongting was standing next to him with a very cold face.
Seeing Lou Ziling, Wu Wei smiled gently and charmingly.What wind blew you two handsome guys here today? Lets take a phototer as a memento!
As soon as she mentioned taking photos, Lou Ziling and Fu rongting both thought of the photos she had taken before and their faces turned pale.
You were the one who sent those photos to Jing Xi, werent you? Lou Ziling asked indifferently.
Yes, its me! Youre going on a date with Zuo Jia. Of course, young master Fu is also very pitiful. Youve made him a cuckold, but he still has to endure it!
Wu Wei wasnt afraid of making a big deal out of it, and every word he said was particrly harsh.
Young master Fu.
Lou Ziling suddenly turned to look at Fu rongting.This is a misunderstanding. I just want to ask miss Zuo for a favor. This person has a lot of criminal records and she has always been sinister. Even if you dont believe me, you should believe your wife.
However, in fact, Fu rongting trusted Lou Ziling more.
It wasnt that he didnt believe Zuo Jia, but it was a fact that Zuo Jia used to like Lou Ziling. However, Lou Ziling had never fallen for Zuo Jia. He would never take the initiative to flirt with her.
But Fu rongting still felt ufortable when they met.
No matter if Zuo Jia liked Lou Ziling or not, Fu rongting didnt want them to keep in touch.
You can look for me if you need anything in the future. Its not convenient for my wife to show up.
Fu rongting said lightly and turned to leave.
Lou Ziling didnt take too long. Perhaps he was worried that Wu Wei would take more photos of them and send them to Jing Xi, so he didnt want to get too close to Wu Wei.
Wu Wei was a little strange. Why did these two peoplee so aggressively and let her go so easily?
She didnt doubt it for too long. Within two days, her coffee shop was closed down by the Industry and Commerce Bureau. The coffee she sold was detected to be high doses of heroin. She had an improper rtionship with many men, stole state secrets, and sold them to other countries. She was immediately arrested and imprisoned.
It had only been two days since he fell from heaven to hell. Wu Wei even felt like he was dreaming!
Her good days had just begun, and suddenly, everything was destroyed!
The men who used to love her so much, when they heard that she was in prison, they all cut off their rtionship with her. No one said that they knew her.
Wu Weis life in prison was worse than death. She didnt know if it was Lou Ziling or Fu rongting who sent her to prison, or if it was both of them who did it. She hated them to death and swore to take revenge after she was released.
However, she was sentenced to a heavy sentence and would spend the rest of her life in prison. By the time she was released, she would have be an olddy with white hair and no teeth!
As spring came, flowers bloomed and fallen flowers bloomed. As a tourist city, W city weed the most beautiful moment of the year.
Suburbs were filled with beautiful flowers, butterflies, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers. The air was fresh, and the birds were singing happily.
When Fu rongting wasnt on duty, he liked to fish in the wild. He would pick the fattest fish and keep them for himself. At night, he would return home to clean them up and make the most delicious fish soup for Zuo Jia.
It was the weekend, and Zuo Jia was taking a break. She apanied Fu rongting to theke in the suburbs to fish.
Fishing required quite a high level of patience. The fish hadnt bitten the hook for more than an hour, but Fu rongting was still sitting as still as a mountain.
Zuo Jia hugged his arm and leaned on his shoulder. She fell asleep in a daze.
When Lou Ziling arrived at thekeside with Jing Xi, she saw Fu rongting gently turn his face and kiss Zuo Jia on the forehead. A sweet and happy feeling came over her.
Lou Ziling nced at Jing Xi and was about to move when Fu rongting looked over alertly.
He was obviously surprised to see them, but then he nodded at them and made a shush gesture, indicating that Zuo Jia was asleep and not to wake her up.
Jing Xiughed and said to Lou Ziling in a low voice,Youre very loving. With a husband like that, no wonder Zuo Jia doesnt like you anymore!
Lou Ziling felt a little helpless. Ever since Jing Xi found out that Zuo Jia no longer liked him, she always liked tough at him.
But he couldnt wait for Zuo Jia to dislike him!
Shall we go to another ce?
Im not changing, the scenery here is the best, and I cant walk anymore!
She touched her bulging stomach and refused to walk any further.
Lou Ziling held her gently and found a ce to put down a recliner for her. Then, she took out her fishing gear and went fishing.
Jing Xi was very satisfied. She was about to give birth, but Lou Ziling never let her go out and wander around. She was bored to death in the manor. She was in a good mood to go fishing today.
Basking in the sun, smelling the flowers, listening to the birds singing, watching her husband fishing, and imagining the hot and sour fish soup at night, Jing Xi was very happy.
Zuo Jia woke up after a while and turned to see a couple beside her. At first, she didnt care, but soon she felt that something was wrong. She turned her head and rubbed her eyes. It was Lou Ziling and Jing Xi!
She thought she was hallucinating in her sleep. She didnt expect it to be true!
This scene was strange no matter how one looked at it!
Zuo Jia immediately looked at Fu rongting again. She wanted to ask him what was going on, but she was afraid that he would be angry at her for paying attention to Lou Ziling, so she opened her mouth but did not say anything.
Fu rongting knew what she was worried about. He lowered his head and nted a gentle kiss on his wifes forehead, pressing her head against his shoulder.Be good. We slepttest night. If youre tired, sleep a little longer. When you wake up, well go home and have fish soup.
She had gone to bedtest night because Fu rongting had yed too many tricks on her, and Zuo Jia had to beg for mercy many times before she could escape.
Zuo Jias face instantly turned red, and she said in a low voice,Shut up, dont say anything! There are still people here!
Fu rongting looked innocent,did I say anything? Jiajia, are you thinking the wrong way? Sigh, youre getting worse and worse. Ive been led astray by you!
Zuo Jia was both angry and amused. She reached out and pinched his ear. Whos the bad one?
Youre so bad, look at you, you scared my fish away!
Whos the bad one?Zuo Jia tightened her grip.
Fu rongtingughed,me, me, me! Im bad, okay?
Zuo Jia let go of her hand, and her gentle and beautiful features smiled brightly. Thats the way!
Not far away, Jing Xi saw the young couple having fun and waved at Lou Ziling.Hubby,e here, I want to pinch my ears too!
After she finished speaking, she gave Zuo Jia A provocative look.
Not to be outdone, Zuo Jia pulled Fu rongtings ear again to show off their affection.
Lou Ziling and Fu rongting had a headache. They werepeting with each other, so dont hurt them!

Zuo Jia had always been a person who liked peace and quiet. She was neverpetitive and was usually modest to others. However, Jing Xi, who she had met today, was extremely strange. Even though she was pregnant, she was still lively.
Therefore, she also became active.
Fu rongting was the first to catch a fish. Zuo Jia pped her hands and cheered, not hiding her praise for Fu rongting.Hubby, youre amazing!
Fu rongting was very surprised. Zuo Jia had never called him hubby before. Was he triggered by Jing Xis call today?
It felt great to be called hubby by her. Fu rongtings mood was as clear as the weather now, and he felt that the couple next to him was not so annoying anymore.
Jing Xi didnt want Lou Ziling to bepared to others, especially when this mans wife used to like Lou Ziling.
Frowning, she suddenly stood up and sprinkled some fish food on theke in front of Lou Ziling.
The school of fish gathered quickly and Lou Ziling caught a big fish in an instant.
Jing Xi cheered.Honey, this fish is so big! Someone caught a fish so small that its not even enough to fill the gaps between their teeth!
Lou Ziling suddenly felt likeughing. He had thought that Jing Xi would be more mature and steady after she got pregnant. He did not expect her to still be so childish and lively as if she would live forever at the age of 18.
Youre cheating, he whispered in Jing Xis ear.Does it count?
How can it not count? Im going to give you fish food again tomorrow. Those fish are used to eating your fish, so they definitely wont bite other peoples bait! They wont be able to catch a single fish, Hmph!
She snorted softly and her tone was full of pride, as if she had taken over the entire Lake.
Lou Ziling looked at the Green Lake and felt that he would have to go bankrupt if he wanted the fish to get used to his fish food and not eat other peoples fish food.
He only came here to fish out of interest, not to contract a huge Lake to raise fish.
He didnt take it seriously and thought that Jing Xi was just joking. He threw the fish into the stic bucket and continued fishing.
While Lou Ziling and Fu rongting were fishing, the two little Women were stillpeting with each other. They both thought that their husband was the best man in the world and praised him endlessly.
Lou Ziling didnt think much of Jing Xispliments, but Fu rongting had never heard Zuo Jia praise him. Now that Zuo Jia wasplimenting him in front of Lou Ziling, he felt very satisfied.
It was obvious that Zuo Jia had really put Lou Ziling down. She only had him in her heart, which was the biggest harvest of Fu rongtings fishing today.
On the way back, Fu rongting held Zuo Jias hand tightly. He was a little excited that she could love him with all her heart.
Zuo Jia could feel Fu rongtings strange mood and couldnt help but ask,Rong ting, whats wrong?
Fu rongting lowered his head and kissed her forehead.Its okay. I had a great time today. Well go fishing together more often in the future.
Zuo Jia liked Fu rongtings gentle kiss. His lips were cool and soft, and when they touched her forehead, she felt like she was his treasure.
She also felt very happy today. Although she always lost to Jing Xi, Zuo Jia didnt care too much about winning or losing. As long as Fu rongting trusted her and understood her heart, so what if she lost the world?
Back home, Fu rongting skillfully handled the fresh fat fish. Zuo Jia didnt help him as usual, but hugged him from behind and stuck to him.
He was really handsome when he was cooking!
His legs were long and his posture was straight. He was wearing a white casual shirt and holding a knife with his slender fingers. His movements were smooth and pleasing to the eye.
Zuo Jia touched Fu rongtings firm chest muscles, a shy smile on her face.
Hes so sturdy!
The warmth of Fu rongtings body was transmitted to Zuo Jia. She closed her eyes in satisfaction and pressed her face against his back. She asked in a slightly sour tone,Rong ting, have you ever been in a rtionship before? Have you ever liked any girl?
Why are you suddenly asking this question? Isnt it a little toote to ask after we get married?
Hearing that he didnt answer her question directly, Zuo Jias heart ached. She opened her mouth and bit Fu rongtings back.Do you have one? Its fine, just tell me, and I promise I wont pursue it!
Fu rongtings eyes were full of smiles. He could tell from Zuo Jias tone that she was jealous. She even said she wouldnt pursue it. If he said he liked someone else, she wouldnt let him sleep on the bed tonight. Yingluo wanted to sleep on the road!
Dont make wild guesses. I dont have the time to date. The Army is very strict. At that time, there was special training every day. I was so tired that I could fall asleep even while standing. Even if a woman pounced on me, I wouldnt be able to catch her.
There are girls pouncing on you?
Fu rongting didnt know whether tough or cry. Her point of focus was really strange!
He was just making an analogy, and this was taken seriously?
However, it was a good feeling to make her jealous. Fu rongting turned around and pecked Zuo Jias lips, whispering,Silly girl, Ive always been yours from head to toe! Ive never been in love, and Ive never liked anyone else.
A perfect answer!
Zuo Jia smiled, still clinging to Fu rongtings back. She followed him wherever he went.
Although Fu rongtings movements were somewhat inconvenient, he enjoyed Zuo Jias attachment and let her hold him, so this time, it took him more than half an hour to cook.
I dont think I need to eat.
Why? Fu rongting asked, puzzled.
Zuo Jia stood on her tiptoes to kiss his cheek.Because theres someone whos a feast for the eyes!
Fu rongtingughed,youre a feast for the eyes, arent you?
She had actually learned how to tease him!
Rapid progress, not bad, not bad!
Life was getting sweeter and sweeter. The two of them fell in love as if they had never been married. They were like a couple who had just fallen in love. Even a second apart felt too long.
So, when Fu rongting had to carry out another mission, Zuo Jia hugged him tightly, reluctant to let him go.
At first, Zuo Jia had only thought that Fu rongtings work was a little dangerous, but she had never thought that their separation would be so fatal!
From the moment she found out that Fu rongting was leaving, Zuo Jia had been crying the whole night.
Fu rongtings heart ached for her, and he kept kissing her tofort her.
The duration of this mission was about a month. Fu rongting found it hard to ept that he would have to be separated from Wang wiai for so long.
Without him by her side, what if someone bullied her?
What if she cried when she was sleeping alone at night and missed him?
Fu rongting had never cried before, and his fortitude was beyond the imagination of ordinary people, but at this moment, his eyes were red.Jiajia, I love you! Ill be back soon, I promise! Be good and wait for me at home. Dont miss me too much. No, you must remember to miss me!

Chapter 1653: Lovesick
Trantor: 549690339
Zuo Jia cried even harder. They were only going to be separated for a month, but she felt like they were going to be separated forever.
But no matter how hard she cried, Fu rongting had to leave.
After he left, Zuo Jia felt that her soul had been taken away by him.
If it wasnt for the fact that the mission was overseas, she might have followed them without a care.
In the past, when she liked Lou Ziling, she would be very happy to see her. However, she didnt think it was a big deal if she couldnt see Lou Ziling.
However, when it came to Fu rongting, Zuo Jia didnt feel anything when she could see him, but once he left, Zuo Jia simply couldnt live anymore!
True love and longing would make one fall sick, lovesickness.
Zuo Jia felt that her illness was quite serious. She couldnt lift her spirits in anything she did, and she didnt like to eat. She only wanted to sleep every day, because she could still see Fu rongting in her dreams when she was asleep, but she was all alone when she was awake.
Xi Ying saw that her daughter wasnt in a good state, so she simply took her home.
Their house wasnt big, so with Xi Guohua and Zuo Jia, it was a little crowded.
However, no one felt that it was inconvenient. Zuo Jias longing for Fu rongting was not so strong when she lived at home, and she felt less lonely, but she was still often absent-minded. She did not eat like before, when she could not finish her meal, she would put in more effort.
This made Guohua extremely anxious. He was extremely d that he was still alive. Otherwise, he wouldnt be able to rest in peace with his granddaughter in this state!
Hed better train his body and strive to live for a few more years!
Zuo Jias lovesickness became more and more serious as time went by. She felt ufortable everywhere. Every day, she would either sleep or be in a daze. One day, when she finally had the energy to make something to eat, she cut her finger.
Guohua was so scared that he didnt even dare to let her into the kitchen!
For Zuo Jia, a month felt like a century. Without Fu rongting by her side, she suddenly realized that she didnt have any photos of him on her phone!
She couldnt even think about it even if she wanted to.
Zuo Jia woke up early in the morning and sat at the dining table. Looking at the Golden and fragrant fried dough sticks, she covered her mouth and ran to the bathroom, where she vomited without a care.
Xi Guohua was so anxious that he even threw away his chopsticks. He ran in and patted his precious granddaughters back, his heart aching.Jiajia, lets go to the hospital! If this continues, wont we be losing our lives?
Xi Ying and Zuo Yan also walked over. The couple looked at each other, and Xi Ying asked hesitantly,Jiajia, youre not pregnant, right?
Zuo Jia, who was rinsing her mouth, couldnt help but be stunned when she heard this.
It seemed like She really hadnt had her period for some time.
But because she missed Fu rongting too much, she had neglected this matter.
This was really possible!
Mom, lets go to the hospital!
The whole family was happy, especially Guohua. He patted Zuo Jias head and thought that time had passed so quickly. The little girl from the past was about to be a mother!
They went to the hospital and the results came out very quickly.
Zuo Jia was pregnant!
Xi Yings smile was bright.Oh, you scared us to death. You havent liked to eat these days. Youve been sleeping so much that we thought you were sick! So its a joyous event!
Zuo Jias pale face was also filled with joy.Were going to have a baby so soon? She was too careless and didnt pay attention to it!
She really wanted to tell Fu rongting the news!
He was going to be a father!
When they got home, Zuo Jia was protected like a national treasure.
Zuo Yan didnt allow her to go to work anymore, so Xi Ying hired a professional nutritionist for her. Even when she wanted to go out for a walk, Xi Guohua would follow her closely.
He was just short of having someone to feed him!
But two dayster, when Fu rongting came back, Zuo Jia even had someone to feed her!
Fu rongting took the Armys helicopter back to city W. He wanted to give Zuo Jia A surprise, but he didnt tell her that his mission had ended early.
He guessed that Zuo Jia should be living with her parents, so he went directly to themunity where Zuo Yan and his wife lived.
The neighborhood was surrounded by greenery. There were stray catszily basking in the sun on thewn. A girl sat beside them, gently feeding the cat food. The old man behind her was working out, but he would look at her from time to time, as if he was afraid that the girl would disappear if he was distracted.
Fu rongtings eyes were filled with gentleness. He slowly walked over and called her softly,Jiajia!
Zuo Jias body stiffened. She raised her head and looked at the man in military uniform in disbelief.
Whats wrong? we havent seen each other for 25 days. Dont you recognize me anymore?
Zuo Jia felt like she was dreaming!
But even if it was just a dream, she did not hesitate to throw herself into his arms, tears falling down her face.Rong ting, is that you? Is it really you?
Fu rongting held Zuo Jias soft body and kissed her cheek and forehead, replying her in a low voice, Its me. Im back. Did you miss me?she said.
Zuo Jia nodded hard and cried like an aggrieved child.I want to!
I miss you too. I miss you every day, and Im going crazy! Fu rongting said softly.
Guohua looked at the two young men and women whispering to each other and walked away with a smile.
Look at how good his eyes are!
He knew that Fu rongting was reliable!
The fu family was a loyal family. With Fu rongting taking care of Zuo Jia, she could live a stable and happy life.
His grandson-inw was back. He had to quickly go back and tell Xi Ying to prepare a few more dishes for lunch, open a bottle of good wine, and drink to his hearts content!
Oh, no, he couldnt drink now.
Forget it, Ill just drink fruit juice like wine.
Zuo Jia didnt notice that the ident had left, as all her thoughts were on Fu rongting.
Fu rongting did see it, but Xi Guohua clearly didnt want to disturb them and give them some space, so he didnt say anything.
He gently wiped away Zuo Jias tears and stroked her chin.How did you lose weight? Did you not eat properly?
He had been worried that Zuo Jias obsessivepulsive disorder would act up again without him and that she would try her best to finish all the remaining food. But now it seemed that she must have eaten very little these days. Even her chin had be sharp and her face had be smaller.
Zuo Jia looked at Fu rongting in front of her, unwilling to blink. She was afraid that if she blinked, he would disappear like a dream at night.
She pinched Fu rongtings face, touched his arm, and pressed her ear against his chest to listen to his heartbeat. After a while, she said,It really is true!
Fu rongting wanted tough, but he felt an inexplicable heartache.
He lowered his head and pressed his lips against Zuo Jia s, eagerly entangling with her.
Fu rongting didnt stop until Zuo Jia was a little dazed from the kiss. He said in a maic voice,Silly girl, do you still think youre dreaming?
Chapter 1654 - Call me big brother
Chapter 1654: Call me big brother
Trantor: 549690339
There was none now.
Zuo Jia couldnt even touch Fu rongting in her dreams, so he was as real as he could be now!
The joy in her heart was indescribable. Zuo Jia was so happy that she almost jumped up with Fu rongting in her arms.
Ive been waiting for you toe home every day. I want to see you every day! Why did you onlye back now? Ive been waiting for you for a century!
Ever since she fell in love with Fu rongting, Zuo Jia felt that she seemed to have be younger, and she liked to act coquettishly with him and do some childish things.
Love could really make people childish.
Fu rongting held Zuo Jias hand and led her slowly through themunity. Ill definitelye back earlier next time! Twenty-five days is too long. Im afraid that youll forget me if Im gone for too long!
How is this possible?!
Zuo Jia happily snuggled up beside him and said in a low voice, Im about to get lovesick, how could I forget you?
Fu rongting smiled. His wife missed him so much that all his worries disappeared.
However, he seemed to be considering changing his position.
It would be best if he could work from nine to five, the same as Zuo Jias working hours.
Fu rongting had always been willing to protect the country.
He was proud of his identity as a soldier and was proud of what he had done.
This was the first time he thought of retreating.
The couple walked into the house hand in hand. Xi Ying looked at her daughter and son-inw with a smile on her face. Her daughters happy look was her greatest satisfaction.
During lunch, Zuo Yan had pushed aside all social events outside and rushed back to have lunch with his daughter and son-inw.
Perhaps it was because of Fu rongtings presence that Zuo Jias appetite improved.
After lunch, Xi Ying drove the young couple back to their small vi.
She liked it when Zuo Jia and Fu rongting were intimate, but with them around, they were too embarrassed to even hug each other.
When they returned to the vi, it instantly became a world for the two of them. As soon as they entered the door, Zuo Jia was pressed against the wall by Fu rongting, and they started kissing wildly.
Fu rongting had been thinking about Zuo Jia for almost a month, and now he was eager to take off her clothes.
Rong ting, no, no! Zuo Jia said anxiously.
Fu rongting restrained himself with great difficulty. He lowered his head and bit her pink earlobe, asking, Whats wrong, is it your period? If I remember correctly, youve already passed, right?
He was so meticulous that he even remembered her period clearly and did not allow her to eat cold food.
Zuo Jias heart was filled with happiness. She held Fu rongtings face and made him look at her. She said shyly,Rong ting, I Im pregnant. The doctor said that I cant do that too much, or itll hurt the baby.
Fu rongting looked at Zuo Jia in a daze. She had a baby?
Zuo Jia looked at his dazed expression and burst intoughter.
Fu rongting came back to his senses. His eyes were shockingly bright, and his tone was full of surprise.When did this happen? I dont even know! Thats great, were going to have a son!
Zuo Jias face was full of smiles.Its not even certain whether its a son or a daughter. Hes only two months old.
Both are fine, I like them all!
Fu rongting happily picked up Zuo Jia and spun around. He wanted to spin again, but he suddenly remembered that she was pregnant and could not be as unscrupulous as before.
He gently put Zuo Jia down and lowered his head to bite her lips.How did you guys manage to hide such a big piece of news? Ive been back for a few hours before you told me!
I just wanted to tell you when I came back, to give you a surprise! Zuo Jias smile was as gentle as water.
It was indeed a pleasant surprise, but It seemed like one of his benefits was going to be greatly reduced!
Fu rongting picked Zuo Jia up by her waist and strode to the bedroom. Im going to develop some new skills. Come and try them out with me!
He said it so seriously that people who didnt know would think that he was doing some serious scientific research project!
Zuo Jia punched him and pouted, Dont mess around. Itll only be stable after three months.
Dont worry, I love you and the baby the most. I wont hurt you two.
It was Fu rongtings first time being a father, and the novelty was so strong that it dispelled a lot of his desire.
In fact, he just wanted to hold Zuo Jia in his arms and spend some time with her in bed.
The two of them touched and kissed each other, but there was only a faint sweetness and no strong impulse.
After a while, Fu rongting fell into a deep sleep.
Zuo Jia gently caressed his sharp and cold face, and couldnt help but feel a little distressed.
Fu rongting rarely fell asleep before she did. He always waited for her to fall asleep.
One could see how tired he was.
His work was dangerous and hard, sacred and great. Zuo Jia didnt know whether to persuade him to continue or to give up.
She was afraid of losing him.
The people he fought against were all extremely vicious criminals, terrorists who did not care about their lives. Weapons had no eyes, and in everyrge-scale battle, there would always be people who would be sacrificed.
However, he was a soldier, and it was a soldiers duty to protect the country.
Zuo Jia leaned into Fu rongtings arms and hugged him tightly, feeling that every minute and second with him was worth cherishing.
She didnt want to sleep. She just wanted to hold Fu rongting like this forever, and it would never be enough.
After sleeping for the whole afternoon, Fu rongting woke up in the evening. Seeing Zuo Jia in his arms, he felt extremely safe. The rain of bullets in his dream was all over.
He lowered his head and kissed Zuo Jias forehead affectionately. He felt that his wife was just right.
Her skin was fair and smooth, her eyshes were long and curled, her nose was small and delicate, her red lips were full and moist, and even her hair was as smooth and soft as silk. Fu rongting couldnt help but gently stroke her.
Have you had enough sleep? Zuo Jia raised her head and looked at him.
Fu rongting nodded slightly, lifted his little wifes chin with his fingers, and kissed her on the lips.Jiajia, call me brother!
Zuo Jias face instantly turned red, and her ears turned pink from embarrassment.
Whats wrong with this person? why does he like to make me call him brother?
She had been forced to call him brother a few times before, but every time, he had been too demanding and she had no choice but to beg for mercy.
However, the more she called him brother at that time, the more ambiguous it felt. So now that Fu rongting called him brother, Zuo Jias heart beat faster.
Zuo Jia bit her lip and refused to call out.
Fu rongtings fingers reached into her clothes and undid the buttons of her bra.Jiajia, are you sure you dont want to call me that?
Zuo Jia clutched her chest, still finding it hard to speak.
What was this? he was addicted to being an older brother!
Fu rongtings hand slid down and lingered on her perky buttocks, kneading them neither too lightly nor too hard.Still not going to call? It wont be of any use if you screamter.
Youre so annoying. Why do you always make me call you that?Zuo Jia bit him, a little embarrassed and angry.
I like it! You used to call me that when you were young, and I cant forget it. We agreed to be brothers forever, why are you going back on your word?
Fu rongtings fingers slowly went deeper, and Zuo Jia hurriedly said,I didnt regret it, but Im already married to you. Its Embarrassing to call me brother!
Fu rongting lowered his head and sucked on Zuo Jias chest, his voice full of love. Its a good thing you married me. Otherwise, I wouldnt be able to hear you call me brother. Jiajia, call me brother. I want to hear it.

Zuo Jia felt a little helpless about Fu rongtings hobby, but she did not reject it, just a little shy.
She hugged Fu rongtings waist and softly called him brother in his ear.
Fu rongting felt his bones go soft!
If Zuo Jia wasnt pregnant now, he would have wanted her regardless of the consequences.
But now, he could only dabble in it.
Fortunately, his willpower was extraordinary. Otherwise, he wouldnt be able to resist being so intimate with his wife.
After carrying out a mission, Fu rongting had once again entered his leisurely vacation life.
Zuo Jia had some morning sickness, and her spirit was not very good after being tortured by the child. Fu rongting cooked for her in various ways every day.
His cooking skills were getting better and better, and he could even make the most ordinary vegetables fresh and delicious.
Zuo Jia had not liked to drink water since she got pregnant. Fu rongting prepared juice for her every day, only feeling at ease when he saw her drink it.
The days of apanying each other passed by quickly. Fu rongting apanied Zuo Jia to her prenatal examination one day. When he came out, he happened to meet Lou Ziling.
Lou Ziling held the babys clothes in her hands and quickly entered the hospital.
Jing Xi has a baby, right? Zuo Jia couldnt help but ask.
It should be, Fu rongting nodded. Otherwise, Lou Ziling would not be so happy.
In the hospitals high-ss Ward, Jing Xi was lying on a white bed with a sleeping baby beside her.
Jing Yichen and Shangguan ning were both there. Even Jing Rui and Jing Zhi had put down their work and came to visit their sister and niece.
Jing Zhi had never raised a child before. He had been waiting for a while, but his niece didnt open her eyes.
Xixi, why is she still sleeping? Is there something wrong with him?
Jing Xi red at him.Youre the one whos crazy! My baby is very healthy! Newborn babies sleep a lot. Theyre uncultured!
Jing Zhi rubbed his chin.I dont have a child. How would I know? he said.
Jing Xi had wanted to despise him, but her heart ached when she heard his words.
Why dont I give my baby to you to raise? then youll have a daughter! She gritted her teeth and looked up.
Before Jing Zhi could refuse, Lou Ziling said,No, I dont agree!
This was his daughter, how could he give her away?
Not even Jing Xis cousin!
Shangguan ning held her daughters hand with a smile and said softly, Dont worry, Xixi. Your second brother and sister-inw will have children. Your sister-inw is an expert in this field. She already said that shell be able to ovee this problem in a year.
Really?
Jing Xi was both surprised and happy. The worry in her heart had finally been relieved.
Youve been in the hospital for a few days. Arent you going home?
Jing Rui looked around the hospital and felt that it was better for his sister to go home.
Lou Ziling looked at the mother and daughter on the bed and said in a gentle voice,Yes, Xixi, lets go home. Your condition and the childs condition have stabilized.
When Jing Xi gave birth, she was in a critical condition. The childs breathing was extremely weak after birth, and the medical staff had to do their best to save her.
So, Jing Xi was always afraid that something would happen to her daughter again, so she stayed in the hospital and refused to leave.
However, the child had been eating and sleeping well for the past two days. The doctor also said that he was very healthy and could be discharged.
Jing Xi hesitated for a while, but she still didnt agree to go home.
Its good to stay here. Lets stay here first. We can be discharged when the baby is one month old!
Jing Xi kissed her daughters face and turned to Jing Yichen.Dad, Ziling and I havent thought of a name for the baby yet. Youre the most cultured one. Hurry and think of a name!
When did he be the most cultured person?
Jing Yichen looked at her calmly and said, Lets just call it Lou Wenhua.
Everyone was amused by him andughed out loud. The noise was so loud that it woke up the baby.
However, she didnt cry even after she woke up. She blinked herrge, grape-like eyes and blew bubbles adorably.
Jing Zhi was curious. He pushed Lou Ziling aside and put his face in front of his niece. He teased her,Little beauty,e and kiss me!
Jing Xiughed so hard that she almost vomited blood. Her second brother was so handsome that even the gods would be angered by him. Why did he speak like a hooligan?
However, the baby who was blowing bubbles smiled at him, as if he liked him very much.
Hahaha, Xixi, your daughter likes me! Ill carry it home, otherwise itll be so painful for the rain to give birth to itself!
Jing Xi rolled her eyes at him. She had been worried that her second brother was childless, but it was all for nothing!
He only knew how to dote on his wife!
Xixi, look at how cute she is. Lets call her Lou cutie!
Jing Zhis suggestion was rejected by everyone else.
You are indeed the most uncultured!
Jing Ruiughed at him.I think Xixis child should take ourst name. Jing! Since youre so good-looking, lets call you Jing Meili!
Cant you guys be more reliable? This name will follow her for the rest of her life. Whats with cultured,cute,pretty? when she grows up, its time for her to settle the score with you!
Xixi, this is fine, Lou Ziling said seriously.
Ah?
Youre willing to let your daughter be called pretty? Jing Xi was shocked. No matter how beautiful she was, she couldnt be named beautiful!
No, Im not talking about that. Im saying that we can let our daughter take your surname.
Family Jing all looked at Lou Ziling. Jing Yichen said seriously,Ziling, are you serious?
Lou Ziling nodded.Dad, mom, Ive thought about it. Ill let her take Xixis surname. She worked so hard to give birth to the child, so its fine for the child to take her surname.
Jing Zhi looked at Lou Ziling in surprise. He didnt expect Lou Ziling to be so open-minded.
As Zheng yuluos parents did not have a son, they had mentioned several times that if they had a child in the future, they would let the child bear the surname Zheng.
But he was not willing and never agreed.
If he were to have a child, the child must follow his surname!
Jing Zhi looked at Lou Ziling with admiration. Jing Xi had a good eye for people. She had picked a good husband!
Jing Yichen asked worriedly,Ziling, do your parents agree to this?
Hell agree,Lou Ziling replied with a smile.
Lou Mingyang would be very happy if his granddaughters surname was Jing instead of Lou.
Jing Yichen had no idea how important he was in Lou Mingyangs heart.
However, since his granddaughters surname was Jing, Lou Mingyang would definitely make him and Jing Xi have another child. The younger one would definitely have the surname Lou.
After confirming that the childs surname was Jing, Jing Yichen had to be more careful when naming the child.
It didnt matter to him what his name was, but if his surname was Jing, he would have to face the Jing family when he went out. He couldnt be called Jing Wenhua, could he?
How unpleasant to hear!
Jing Xi didnt think too much about it. She only felt that Lou Ziling really loved her enough to let the child take herst name.
Her heart softened and she smiled.Ziling, lets call her Jinglou! Did it sound good?

Lou Ziling smiled. It sounded like a boys name, but it was a good name.
Its nice, youre the most cultured!
The two brothers, Jing Rui and Jing Zhi, rolled their eyes at Lou Ziling. They finally knew why Jing Xi always had Lou Ziling in her mind. He was really good at coaxing people!
The name Jing Lou did not have any technical difficulty at all, and it was not even as beautiful as Jing!
After giving her daughter a name, Jing Xi touched her little face, her eyes full of gentleness.Little Lou Lou, grow up quickly. Let Lou Lou take you out to y!
Jing Rui and Jing Zhi looked at each other and saw disgust in each others eyes.
Their originally mischievous, deceptions little sister had changed her tone ever since she got married. She was showing off her love in front of them without any qualms.
But she seemed to be living a happy life. Jing Rui and Jing Zhi were relieved. They left the hospital together and went back to A city to work.
Lou Mingyang and his wife quickly flew over from the United States to visit their granddaughter.
Lou ruofei came with her son, Luo Hui. He liked his little cousin more than anyone else and stayed by her side. As long as Jinglou woke up, he would talk to her.
Lou ruofei had only wanted to stay here for one or two days, but because her son refused to leave, she had to stay for half a month before returning to the United States.
Even so, Luo Hui wasnt satisfied. After he returned home, he kept saying that he wanted to see his sister.
Luo feicui held Lou ruofeis soft and boneless hand in his palm, a bright smile on his handsome face.Feifei, lets have another daughter. Our son is too lonely. Lets have a daughter for him to y with!
Lou ruofei didnt know whether tough or cry. She knew that Luo feicui had always doted on his son, but he couldnt do it this way!
Luo Hui had already yed with all kinds of toys. Was he going to y with his little sister now?
However, Luo Hui was really good to Jinglou. It was his first time being an older brother and he wished he could give her all the good things he had.
Lou ruofeis health had been good for the past two years. Luo feicui was also very active in giving birth, so she got pregnant very soon.
Luo Feiyang looked at his brother pampering his wife and son every day. He was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.
His family still didnt agree with him marrying tan Ruyi, and now their goal of finding a wife for him was quite high. All the conditions were in ordance with Zuo Jia s!
Not to mention Zuo Jias superior family conditions, just her Ph.D. Degree alone was enough to wipe out a lot of girls!
Zuo Jia, who went to school very early, had already graduated with a Ph.D. At 26 years old!
Tan Ruyi had just started her masters degree. By the time she graduated, it would be toote.
He was really screwed over by Zuo Jia. If he had known earlier, he would have just married her!
If he maintained a marriage of convenience with her and only treated her as a friend instead of a husband and wife, he and tan Ruyi could still be in love.
However, this was only a thought.
Recently, Ji moxuan had been on a business trip here and Luo Feiyang had finally found a confidant. He dragged him to a bar to drink to drown his sorrows.
My parents force me to go on blind dates every day. Im so young, why am I so anxious!
Ji moxuan nced at him and said unhurriedly,Im a year younger than you, but Im still forced to go on blind dates. Youre making me feel like I cant get a wife!
Luo Feiyang was the best at exposing peoples shorings.Who asked you to be so fascinated by Wu Wei before? you did all sorts of stupid things. Your parents just wanted to find a woman to keep an eye on you so that you wont be deceived by a Vixen again!
Right now, Ji moxuan was most unwilling to mention Wu Wei.
This was a stain on his love history! At the mention of Wu Wei, he hated himself for trusting others so easily in the past. He had always naively thought that Wu Wei only liked him.
Having his scar exposed by Luo Feiyang, Ji moxuans expression turned sour,Youre no better. You still want to marry tan Ruyi! I thought Zuo Jia was good before, but she didnt like you. Fu rongting is much better than you!
Luo Feiyang was so angry that smoke wasing out of his nose. It was a mistake for him to ask Ji moxuan to drink with him!
They were both people with a hard life, why did they have to hurt each other?
Zuo Jia had no idea how much pain she had brought to Luo Feiyang. She was living a carefree and happy life. After the first three months of her pregnancy, she no longer had morning sickness. She was more energetic and looked better.
It had been more than three months, and her pregnancy was still not visible. Zuo Jia was still slim, with her long hair draped over her shoulders and her skin smooth and delicate, looking very young.
As he walked on the streets, many people turned their heads.
In the end, Fu rongting did not apply for a change of position, but he applied for a long leave to take care of Zuo Jia at home.
In the morning, after breakfast, the two of them held hands and went for a walk in the park. When Zuo Jia was tired, Fu rongting carried her home.
Zuo Jia would feel embarrassed when she often met acquaintances on the road, but Fu rongting greeted others as if nothing had happened, as if it was a matter of course to carry her.
Lunch was always sumptuous by Fu rongting, and Zuo Jia had gained some weight from his care.
Afraid that Zuo Jia would be bored, Fu rongting liked to take her to the flower and bird markets.
A tank of colorful tropical fish, a pair of talking parrots, and a cute andzy kitten were added to the house.
Zuo Jia had nothing to do, so she fed the cat and the fish and taught the parrot how to talk. The day passed quickly.
The two parrots didnt know how to talk much, but every time they saw Fu rongting, they would rush to call him hubby.
Since Zuo Jia had to call him honey countless times every day, the two parrots had learned to do so.
Zuo Jia warned the two parrots seriously,Dont call him that, hes my husband!
But the parrot ignored her and continued to call Fu rongting hubby with great enthusiasm.
Ill sell you two if you shout again! I dont want you guys anymore!
The parrot replied,hubby! Hubby!
Zuo Jia stomped her feet in anger,Hmph, you two wont be able to eat tonight! Just starve!
The parrot replied,hubby! Hubby!
Fu rongting found it interesting. It was said that pregnancy made one stupid for three years, and it was indeed true. His wife was actuallypeting with two birds, as if she was jealous of two parrots!
He hugged Zuo Jia from behind, turned his head to kiss her cheek, and said in a gentle voice,Theyre so disobedient. Ill make them into braised parrots tonight!
The two parrots didnt know what their master was talking about and kept shouting,Hubby!
Zuo Jia was so angry that sheughed. She fed the two parrots and shook her head.How can I do that? this little thing is so clever. I want to raise them so that they can recite poems!
Fu rongting couldnt help butugh. How were these two parrots clever? He was so stupid!
If they were raised to the point where they could recite poems, their children would probably be able to y soy sauce!
However, these parrots had added a lot of fun to their life, and Fu rongting hoped that they could live longer.
When the babies were born and grew up, he could even tease them to talk.
He looked forward to the future. Maybe when he and Zuo Jia both had white hair, they could still go to the flower and bird Market hand in hand, fish together, and teach the parrot to recite poems.
